 - **Phase 2 — audio mirror. ✅** The host captures the game's audio by PID via
   WASAPI process loopback and re-renders it on the default endpoint, so RPT
   carries game audio to guests.
-- **Audio render-hook (echo fix). ✅ (pending manual end-to-end)** The injected
-  hook intercepts the game's WASAPI render path (`IAudioRenderClient`), copies
-  the frames into a shared audio ring for the host to re-render, and releases the
-  game's buffer silenced — so the operator no longer hears the audio twice. The
-  host owns an enable flag and re-renders the game's format via `AUTOCONVERTPCM`;
-  if the hook doesn't publish a format in time it reverts to process loopback.
-  The Audio panel shows the active source and a render-stream-count debug table.
-  Validated in-process by `audio_hook_test`; the real-game pass is the remaining
-  manual step.
+- **Audio render-hook (echo fix). ✅ (capture proven on a real game; full RPT
+  pass pending)** The injected hook intercepts the game's WASAPI render path
+  (`IAudioRenderClient`), copies the frames into a shared audio ring for the host
+  to re-render, and releases the game's buffer silenced — so the operator no
+  longer hears the audio twice. It hooks the render vtables *proactively* so a
+  game that's already playing when injected is still captured. The host owns an
+  enable flag and re-renders the game's format via `AUTOCONVERTPCM`; if the hook
+  doesn't publish a format in time it reverts to process loopback. The Audio panel
+  shows the active source and a render-stream-count debug table. Validated
+  in-process by `audio_hook_test` and against a real already-playing game
+  (Phantom Brave) with `coop_audio_probe`: the pre-existing render client is
+  detected and real, non-silent audio reaches the ring with zero overruns.
+
+### Remaining verification
+
+Producer-side capture is proven; these still need a human / full setup to confirm:
+
+- **Hooked audio over RPT, end-to-end.** Run the host, inject, tick **Mirror game
+  audio**, and confirm **Source: Hooked (no echo)**, the game goes locally silent,
+  and a guest on Remote Play Together still hears it.
+- **Format guess for non-mix-format games.** For a stream that already exists at
+  injection time the hook can't see the game's `Initialize`, so it assumes the
+  device **mix format**. Phantom Brave matched it exactly (48 kHz/2ch/float). A
+  game that initialized shared mode with a different format would come out
+  wrong-pitched/garbled and needs per-stream format detection — not yet handled.
+- **Multi-stream games.** v1 captures only the first ("primary") render stream;
+  confirm the Audio panel's render-stream table makes a multi-stream game obvious
+  (secondary streams stay local until per-stream mixing is added).
