refactor: Remove old phone-messages minigame and transition to phone-chat

- Deleted `phone-messages-minigame.js` and archived related CSS.
- Updated `interactions.js` to exclusively use phone-chat with runtime conversion.
- Enhanced error handling for phone interactions.
- Marked completion of old phone minigame removal in implementation log.
- Added detailed cleanup summary documentation.

+# Phone Minigame Cleanup Summary
+
+**Date**: 2025-10-30  
+**Status**: ✅ Complete
+
+## Overview
+Successfully removed the old `phone-messages-minigame` system and transitioned entirely to `phone-chat` with runtime conversion support. This cleanup ensures a single, unified phone system going forward.
+
+## Files Removed
+- ✅ `js/minigames/phone/phone-messages-minigame.js` (~934 lines) - **DELETED**
+- ✅ `css/phone.css` → archived as `css/phone.css.old`
+- ✅ `test-phone-minigame.html` → archived as `test-phone-minigame.html.old`
+
+## Files Modified
+
+### `js/minigames/index.js`
+- Removed `PhoneMessagesMinigame` import
+- Removed `returnToPhoneAfterNotes` export (was only used by old phone minigame)
+- Removed `'phone-messages'` registration from MinigameFramework
+- **Result**: Only `phone-chat` is now registered
+
+### `js/systems/interactions.js`
+- Removed entire fallback section for `phone-messages` minigame (~50 lines)
+- Simplified phone interaction logic to only use `phone-chat` with runtime conversion
+- Added clear error logging if conversion fails (no silent fallback)
+- **Result**: Cleaner, more maintainable code with single code path
+
+### `planning_notes/npc/progress/01_IMPLEMENTATION_LOG.md`
+- Marked "Old Phone Minigame Removal" as complete ✅
+- Added "Old Phone Minigame Removed" section to Recent Improvements
+- Updated Phone Access checklist
+- Documented all removal steps
+
+## Backward Compatibility
+
+### ✅ Maintained
+The cleanup **maintains full backward compatibility** with existing scenarios:
+
+1. **Simple phone messages** (text/voice) → Automatically converted to virtual NPCs via `PhoneMessageConverter`
+2. **Existing phone objects** in scenarios → Work unchanged (runtime conversion handles them)
+3. **No scenario changes required** → All existing phone interactions work with phone-chat
+
+### How It Works
+```javascript
+// Old phone object format (still works!)
+{
+  "type": "phone",
+  "name": "CEO's Phone",
+  "text": "The encryption key is 4829.",
+  "voice": "The encryption key is 4829.",
+  "sender": "IT Team"
+}
+
+// → Automatically converted to virtual NPC
+// → Opens phone-chat with Ink conversation
+// → No changes needed to scenario JSON!
+```
+
+## Benefits of Cleanup
+
+### Code Quality
+- **Removed ~1000 lines** of duplicate functionality
+- **Single phone system** reduces maintenance burden
+- **Clearer code paths** (no fallback logic needed)
+- **Better error handling** (explicit failure messages)
+
+### Feature Parity
+Phone-chat now has ALL features from phone-messages PLUS:
+- ✅ Interactive Ink-based conversations
+- ✅ Branching dialogue with choices
+- ✅ State persistence and variables
+- ✅ Multiple NPCs on one phone
+- ✅ Timed message delivery
+- ✅ Contact list interface
+- ✅ Conversation history
+
+### Testing
+- ✅ `test-phone-chat-minigame.html` - Comprehensive test harness (still works)
+- ✅ Runtime conversion tested with 6 NPCs (Alice, Bob, Charlie, Security, IT, David)
+- ✅ Voice messages working (Web Speech API)
+- ✅ Simple messages working (auto-converted)
+- ✅ Mixed content working (text + voice)
+- ✅ No errors detected
+
+## What Changed for Developers
+
+### Before (Old System)
+```javascript
+// Had to choose between two systems
+if (needsInteractive) {
+    MinigameFramework.startMinigame('phone-chat', null, {...});
+} else {
+    MinigameFramework.startMinigame('phone-messages', null, {...});
+}
+```
+
+### After (New System)
+```javascript
+// Only one system - always use phone-chat
+// Runtime converter handles simple messages automatically
+MinigameFramework.startMinigame('phone-chat', null, {...});
+```
+
+### For Scenario Designers
+**NO CHANGES NEEDED!** Old phone objects work automatically via runtime conversion.
+
+## Verification Checklist
+- [x] Old minigame file deleted
+- [x] Old CSS archived
+- [x] Old test file archived
+- [x] All imports/exports removed from index.js
+- [x] MinigameFramework registration removed
+- [x] Interactions.js updated to single code path
+- [x] Implementation log updated
+- [x] No compile errors
+- [x] Runtime conversion still works
+- [x] Backward compatibility maintained
+- [x] Documentation updated
+
+## Next Steps
+1. ✅ **Phase 2 Complete** - Phone-chat is now the sole phone system
+2. ⏳ **Phase 3: Game Integration**
+   - Add phone button in main game UI (bottom-right corner)
+   - Handle phone item clicks in inventory.js
+   - Add phone to player's starting inventory in scenarios
+   - Test in actual game environment (not just test harnesses)
+3. ⏳ **Phase 4: Additional Events**
+   - Emit game events from core systems
+   - Create NPC stories triggered by game events
+   - Test full event → bark → conversation flow
+
