 - REQ-UI-DEBUG-DRAW: A debug draw mode can be toggled on and off with the **M** key (REQ-UI-HOTKEYS). It is inactive by default. While active, the sensor range of every ship — both player and enemy — is drawn as a circle centered on the ship, using that ship schematic's outline color from `visuals.toml`.
 
+- REQ-UI-DEBUG-OVERLAY: While debug draw mode is active (REQ-UI-DEBUG-DRAW), a text overlay is drawn in the upper left corner of the game world view. The overlay has a semi-transparent black background sized to fit its content. It displays the following lines of text:
+  - `Accumulated Threat Level: <level>` — where `<level>` is the current accumulated threat level (see REQ-WAV-THREAT-RATE).
+  - `Time until Wave: <time_s>` — where `<time_s>` is the remaining time in seconds on the normal-wave inter-wave gap timer (see REQ-WAV-GAP). During a quiet window the gap timer is frozen; the displayed value reflects that frozen state.
+
 ### Escape Menu
 
 - REQ-UI-GAME-MENU: Pressing Escape at any time opens the escape menu as a modal dialog and pauses the simulation (sets speed to 0×). On close, the simulation speed is restored to what it was before the menu was opened — so if the game was already paused, it remains paused. The menu contains three buttons:
