07aee1246d chore: stop committing normalized capture twins
Every capture was committed twice: once raw and once with pids, handles,
timestamps and bounds canonicalized. The twin is produced by common.ps1 on
every run and is byte-reproducible from the capture beside it -- verified
across all thirty-seven of them -- so tracking both doubled the evidence diff
for no information a re-runner cannot regenerate locally.

The twins are still written on disk and -Compare still diffs them, so
re-runnability is unchanged.

f5d6c81eb5 chore: retrigger ci after an unrelated interaction-lease flake
The macOS lib-test job failed on
interaction_lease::tests::home_changes_do_not_change_the_physical_interaction_lock,
which timed out acquiring the physical lock inside a 100 ms deadline at a
contention count of 14. This branch changes no Rust, and the other 975 tests in
that job passed, so the failure is runner contention rather than anything in the
probe corpus.

09bc82a343 fix: close four teardown and gating defects found by review
None of these changed a measurement; all four were failure paths that could
report success.

The COM shim killed Obsidian by process name with a raw Stop-Process inside an
empty catch, so those pids never reached the ledger. A survivor there was
invisible to both the probe's own teardown and the harness survivor check --
the one place in the corpus a leaked process could go entirely undetected.
Obsidian pids are now registered and terminated through the confirming path.

The tree dump registered its Settings pid only after frame resolution
succeeded, so a resolution timeout threw first and leaked a process the probe
had launched. Registration now happens as soon as the pid exists, and only
when the probe launched it, since killing a pre-existing instance would be the
operator's window.

The modifier-release sweep injected without a foreground assertion, the only
unbracketed SendInput site in the corpus. It now asserts and logs rather than
aborting, because it runs during teardown.

The input probe swallowed a failed teardown capture write, so the file that
proves clipboard, cursor and process cleanliness could vanish while the probe
still reported ok. It now fails loudly, and a surviving process downgrades the
status too.

Separately, a focus change is now classified rather than assumed hostile. A
target the probe launched taking focus during its own startup is the target
activating itself; Electron does this asynchronously when its renderer becomes
ready, so under load it lands mid-dump and failed the run intermittently while
passing standalone. Only a focus move to a window the probe never launched is
interference.

39aaab2039 fix: wake a suspended settings instance instead of failing the tree dump
The probe skipped its own launch when SystemSettings was already running, then
waited the full window for a frame that a backgrounded UWP instance never
presents, so a second harness run failed where a standalone run passed. That is
the plan's recorded process-lifetime suspension risk arriving in practice.

After eight seconds without a frame the probe now issues ms-settings: to wake a
suspended instance, and the failure text names suspension as the cause rather
than reporting only that no frame was found.

551bd7c07f feat: add findings ledger, session evidence, and phases.md truth-sync
Seventy-nine rows across all eleven evidence areas, each carrying the stack
that produced it and whether it generalizes, so later sub-phases can tell an
API-contract fact from an observation about this box and these app versions.
Forty-three confirm the roadmap, five contradict it, twenty-six are new edges,
and five defer to a named Phase 2 sub-phase. No row is unknown.

Six in-place corrections land with it. The CacheRequest multiplier is replaced
by its phase decomposition, because a single number is wrong in both
directions. The private-file requirements now name ReplaceFile rather than
MoveFileEx for a replace over an open destination, record that share-delete is
necessary but never sufficient, and permit locality inference only behind a
control call, since an out-of-range info class is indistinguishable from a
local volume by error code. The Chromium guidance now requires a settle before
concluding a tree is thin; its exposure claim was left standing because the
probe confirmed it. The event-teardown mitigation now names the hazard that
actually dominates removal cost.

The completeness check is a script rather than a checklist, and it is
negative-tested: blanking a scope, setting a verdict to unknown, or dropping a
closure point each fail it loudly. It asserts the hunk index is bijective
against the measured diff rather than against a number written in prose.

cf596d380d feat: exercise interactions, input synthesis, and hit-testing raw
Every interaction records pre-state, action, then an independent re-read --
never the call's return value. Toggle proves why: TogglePattern flips WPF
ToggleState without raising Click, so the fixture's status sink stays silent
while the element itself changed. Trusting the sink alone would have recorded
a failure that did not happen.

Posted keystrokes are not uniformly dead. WM_KEYDOWN posted to a Win32 edit
control does register, because TranslateMessage runs in the target thread's
own pump and synthesises the character regardless of how the message arrived;
what the path cannot carry is modifier state. Against Chromium it does not
register at all, with every call still returning success. Establishing that
needed an idle control pass: the Chromium tree moved on its own between two
reads, and without a quiet baseline that drift would have been filed as a
keystroke landing.

The astral-plane payload survives typing. SendInput forces a surrogate pair
into two separate unicode events and the target reassembles it intact, read
back through WM_GETTEXT so the check is independent of both the injection path
and UIA.

Notepad's edit control is unreachable from the managed client, and not merely
unenumerated: TryGetCurrentPattern returns false for Text, Value and Scroll on
the handle-resolved element, while the COM census sees the same window as a
Document carrying all three.

Hit-testing is the only sound visibility primitive of the three tested. The
zero-size control is addressable by handle, enumerable by no walk, and
returned by no point. A minimized window reports an empty rect at the top
level while its descendants report real dimensions at the -32000 anchor, with
IsOffscreen false throughout -- so neither emptiness nor IsOffscreen can gate
occlusion, but ElementFromPoint correctly returns the occluder.

90fd24b4ed feat: probe uipi, dpi awareness, and chromium activation
UIPI is measured across a boundary that actually exists. This box runs the
built-in Administrator at High with Admin Approval Mode off, so RunAs yields
High-vs-High and runas /trustlevel leaves the mandatory label untouched; the
probe manufactures a real Medium token instead and refuses to record a verdict
unless the worker reads back S-1-16-8192. Both arms run identical code against
the same High Notepad, so the High arm is a control proving the injection
works. UIA reads succeed from Medium; SendInput does not land, and the two arms
return the identical success code -- only re-reading the target separates them.
PostMessage is denied with error 5 while SendMessage WM_GETTEXT succeeds, so
reads cross the boundary and writes do not.

The 125 percent DPI measurement is not achievable here and the reason is
measured rather than assumed: the VMware display carries no EDID and offers a
single scale step. DisplayConfigSetDeviceInfo returns success and persists the
registry value while effective DPI stays at 96, which is itself worth
recording -- that API's success return is not evidence the scale changed. The
non-zero delta defers to 2.4, which owns per-monitor scale. What does land for
2.1 is that PER_MONITOR_AWARE_V2 succeeds on 17763 with both arms verified at
the awareness levels claimed.

Chromium activation is graded, not guessed. The bundled version was read off
this installation by scanning the shipped binary's user-agent string: Chromium
142, Electron 39.8.3. Both stacks reach the same settled tree with no flag, so
the exposure claim holds and the plan's candidate contradiction is superseded.
The flag is still not redundant: without it first contact is deterministically
the pre-activation shell, and with it first contact is a race. Neither arm
removes the need to settle before trusting a first snapshot.

297cc38dcc feat: census patterns and automation ids, and measure identity survival
Identity survival is what sub-phase 2.5 designs its Windows RefEntry against,
and the three properties behave nothing alike. AutomationId survives process
restart on every stack measured, at 100 percent across WinForms, WPF, and real
Win32. RuntimeId survives restart nowhere, at zero percent on all three. Path
survives restart perfectly and is the first thing a content change breaks.

Under content mutation the failure is worse than loss. Explorer keys list rows
by row index, so after a folder changes, 29 AutomationId keys still resolve and
5 of them land on a different file. A ref keyed on AutomationId alone does not
fail -- it succeeds against the wrong element. That silent-wrong-target count,
not the survival percentage, is what makes stable text identity load-bearing.

Measuring it needed a real refresh wait: a 4 second settle reported a wholly
unchanged tree and would have recorded Explorer identity as perfectly stable,
the exact inverse of what the window does once it refreshes at 20 seconds.

Two stack facts. WPF automation-peer binding is a one-shot race -- a client
that reads before the peer exists binds the generic HWND provider and never
re-resolves, which a 30 second poll never recovers. And the managed and COM
clients report different AutomationId values for the same window, so the
divergence between stacks is in values as well as in visibility.

The honest pattern divergence is two, not eleven: LegacyIAccessible and Text2
are the only patterns the managed stack structurally cannot name. The larger
figure was an artifact of the WPF peer race and was retracted after the fix.

e6f4ecc14e feat: dump notepad, explorer, settings, and obsidian trees with real geometry
Targets launch restored-but-not-activated, so bounds are real: 100/95.9/100/99.2
percent non-empty across the four dumps, with focus asserted identical before
and after all seven walks. Settings resolves through ApplicationFrameWindow to
its CoreWindow's SystemSettings pid, because the frame window belongs to
ApplicationFrameHost and no predicate in either script keys on a display name.

Minimizing a window does not shrink its tree -- the node count is identical at
3 -- but it degenerates geometry in two different shapes. Only the top-level
window reports an empty rect; its descendants report real dimensions anchored
at -32000, and every node still reports IsOffscreen as false. An occlusion gate
testing emptiness or IsOffscreen alone would accept both as visible.

Chromium activation is not a client-stack difference. The managed client takes
Obsidian from 9 to 119 nodes across an 8 second settle with no flag, matching
the COM shim's shape. What suppresses it is occlusion: an earlier revision that
left other targets restored on top held the count at first contact for a 16
second instrumented hold across three runs. The mechanism is not isolated, so
it is recorded as a probe-placement hazard rather than a product claim.

The managed timing cross-check reproduces the COM stack's direction but not its
magnitude, and on Notepad caching is a pessimization at 0.21x, because
client-side providers run in the client process and the cache is pure overhead.

7c9dda23f9 feat: probe uia3 com for events, caching, walkers, and pattern availability
This is the stack the Rust adapter actually wraps, and it does not agree with
the managed client. Notepad's edit control is a bare Pane with no patterns to
System.Windows.Automation but a Document with Value, Text, Text2, Scroll and
LegacyIAccessible to UIA3 COM, which names the responsible EDIT proxy in
ProviderDescription. Twenty-six nodes versus three. Win32 client-side proxies
are alive here; they are inert only for the managed client, so a managed
census would have recorded false absences for patterns the adapter will see.

The scratch fixture's earlier zero-pattern reading was a fixture artifact
rather than a platform fact: a custom server-side provider suppresses both
client-side proxies and WinForms' own providers. Both fixture modes are
censused so the ledger states the mechanism instead of the symptom.

CacheRequest measures 2.73x against the documented 3-5x, but the headline
number hides the shape: building the cache makes the find phase slower, and
the entire win lands in the read phase at roughly 299x. The claim is wrong in
both directions.

Handler teardown is safe with events in flight, costing 69ms against a
backlog of 281. The hazard is elsewhere: hiding and showing a top-level
window while handlers are registered poisons subsequent removal for up to 86
seconds, superlinearly in repetitions, and cheap callbacks do not avoid it.
A watch implementation needs a teardown timeout rather than an assumption.

Pattern ids are discovered from the OS at runtime rather than hardcoded,
which caught that the annotation availability property is 30118.

9e0a7267a8 feat: probe windows private-file primitives for the 2.1 hardening design
Answers the four questions sub-phase 2.1 rebuilds its private-file layer
against, measured on the real OS with verbatim Win32 error codes. Three of
the four contradict the framing this work was planned under.

Rename: MoveFileEx cannot replace a target that has any open handle, and it
reports ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED rather than the sharing violation the plan
assumed -- FILE_SHARE_DELETE does not rescue it, because MoveFileEx issues
ReplaceIfExists rather than POSIX-semantics rename. ReplaceFile is the
operation that honors share-delete on the destination, but it is the one
that refuses an open handle on the replacement source. The two APIs have
opposite tolerances on opposite sides, so code treating error 32 as the
sharing case misclassifies the most likely production failure.

Ownership: new files take their owner from TokenOwner, never TokenUser, at
both High and Medium integrity. Integrity level is not the variable -- the
default follows admin-group membership, so an owner-only DACL check breaks
for any admin account regardless of elevation.

Locality: GetFileInformationByHandleEx(FileRemoteProtocolInfo) does
distinguish local from remote, but signals local by failing with
ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER rather than succeeding with a local protocol value.
An out-of-range info class returns that same error, so the code is ambiguous
and a control call is required before reading it as a locality signal.

ACL: neither leaf carries an explicit ACE. The restriction is authored at
the nearest protected ancestor and merely propagated, so a leaf-only check
sees the effective grants but cannot tell whether they are anchored or
silently re-derivable, and cannot see FILE_DELETE_CHILD on the parent.

a7c64c9790 feat: capture windows environment, session, and integrity baseline
Every ledger row inherits these machine facts, so they are captured
reproducibly rather than asserted: build 17763.7434, session and
interactivity, mandatory integrity label, UAC policy state, default file
ownership, display topology, and tool inventory.

Identity is recorded as a shape, not a value. The account SID keeps its
well-known RID tail (S-1-5-21-<redacted>-500) because the RID is the
load-bearing fact, while integrity and well-known group SIDs stay verbatim
for the same reason.

Three findings the later units depend on. The GAC UIAutomationClient assembly
exports 57 types, all managed System.Windows.Automation, and no IUIAutomation
-- while CUIAutomation8 is registered against uiautomationcore.dll, so UIA3 is
reachable only through a compiled interop shim. Newly created files are owned
by S-1-5-32-544 via TokenOwner rather than TokenUser, pre-answering half of
the private-file ownership question. The locale is split: UI culture es-ES
while the current culture is en-US, so OS strings are Spanish but .NET number
and date formatting is not.

2fea5889c4 feat: add winforms and wpf scratch fixtures with explicit automation ids
The fixtures are the interaction targets for the pattern census, identity
stability diff, raw interaction exercises, and the COM shim's event sources.

Two measured platform facts shaped them. First, the .NET Core rule that a
WinForms control's Name becomes its UIA AutomationId does not hold on .NET
Framework 4.8 -- the HWND provider supplies raw window handles instead, which
change every launch and are useless for an identity-stability diff. The
fixture installs a server-side provider per control, with a switch to fall
back to explicit Win32 control ids.

Second, Win32 UIA client-side proxies are inert on this VM: the WinForms
fixture exposes 23 controls with zero patterns, every one a Pane, matching
stock Notepad's Edit reporting as a bare Pane. The WPF fixture exposes 25
controls with a full pattern surface. Interaction probes therefore target WPF
and record the WinForms absence as evidence rather than working around it.

e863152825 feat: add windows probe harness with redaction gate and integrity helpers
The harness is the foundation every 2.0 probe codes against: common.ps1 owns
the R11 redaction gate, BOM-less UTF-8 capture writers, KTD9 normalization,
scratch-process lifecycle with pid tracking, the KTD5 foreground assertion,
and a Medium-integrity process launcher.

runas.exe /trustlevel:0x20000 was measured on this box and produces a High
integrity process (S-1-16-12288) with a deny-only Administrators group, not
the Medium label the UIPI probe needs. Start-MediumIntegrityProcess therefore
duplicates the token and sets S-1-16-8192 explicitly, asserting the label on
read-back so a UIPI row can never be graded against a fake boundary.

4fa7661608 feat: open the Windows adapter phase with corrected platform facts
Establishes feat/windows-adapter as the base branch for all Windows work.
Sub-phases 2.0 through 2.15 are cut from here and merge back here; main
stays the macOS-GA line and gains Windows once, at the end, when the
adapter is production-solid as a whole.

Corrects the Phase 2 Windows sections, which were written from
documentation research in 2026-04 and re-verified against current sources
and a real Windows machine:

- uiautomation 0.25 (a "0.24" requirement will not resolve to it under 0.x
  semver); windows-capture 2.0.0 - the recorded 1.5.4 was never published
- Chromium 138 ships native UIA by default, so the web-wrapper depth-skip
  is the primary lever and --force-renderer-accessibility is a fallback
- Windows 11 22H2+ moved tray overflow to TopLevelWindowForOverflowXamlIsland
- windows-11-arm runners have been GA for public repos since 2025-08-07
- Windows 10 1809 remains the API floor, now qualified with its servicing
  reality (LTSC 2019 / Server 2019 are the serviced targets)
- Notepad is two different apps across Server and Win11 client SKUs
- CI tables reflect the real test-windows and test-linux lanes from v0.6.0

Adds the no-convenience-deferral rule: scope moves between sub-phases of a
phase, never out of it. The only sanctioned deferral is proven
impossibility, evidenced by a ledger row, shipping an honest
PLATFORM_NOT_SUPPORTED. 2.14 and 3.14 are no longer deferrable stretch
sub-phases.

A class of unit tests bounds real retry/resolve/hydration work with a
tight wall-clock deadline (100-1000 ms) and asserts a definite outcome
(success, or a specific terminal code after a bounded retry). On slow,
contended GitHub runners the work overran the budget and the test got a
Timeout instead of its asserted outcome, flaking the Test job while every
local run passed. Widen those budgets to the suite's 5 s idiom so the
asserted state is reached deterministically. Genuine deadline-expiry
tests (permanently-unresolvable adapters, single-shot timeout_ms 0,
deadline-value plumbing, lock-contention) keep their tight budgets - a
slow runner still expires them correctly. Test-only; no production change.

feat!: implement Playwright-grade foundation contract
Settle the Playwright-grade reliability contract in agent-desktop-core
before the Windows/Linux adapters are built, so they inherit it instead
of redesigning it. Every command now observes, waits, verifies, and
reports honestly instead of firing blindly.

Highlights: capability-supertrait split of PlatformAdapter with
not_supported() defaults; canonical role/state vocabulary with live
`is --property visible`; display enumeration (`list-displays`) and honest
`--screen` with scale factor; truthful Automation permission; `native_id`
identity spine; window-id-first resolution; serializable `LocatorQuery`
with live `find`; default-on auto-wait before every ref action; three-way
`hit_test` occlusion gate; `scroll_into_view` in core; core accessible-name
precedence; typed `ActionStep` delivery tier; `ProcessState` and
`APP_UNRESPONSIVE`; `LaunchOptions`; baseline-diff desktop signals
(`wait --event`); typed clipboard (`Text`/`Image`/`FileUrls`); mouse
modifier chords and `mouse-wheel`. Hardened through a 35-reviewer pass with
independent validation and a green live e2e gate (109/0), plus a
head-vs-main performance comparison harness.

BREAKING CHANGE: default-on auto-wait changes the timing of every
previously-untouched ref-action call (bounded 5000 ms default; `--timeout-ms 0`
restores single-shot). `ENVELOPE_VERSION` is now `2.1` (adds the
`APP_UNRESPONSIVE` code and process state in error details). FFI ABI major
is `3` (append-only struct evolution; `wait --event` is intentionally not
exposed over FFI). The legacy string clipboard API is removed in favor of
typed content. `key-down`/`key-up` fail closed until daemon-owned held input
exists. `close-app` verifies termination and the osascript fallback path is
removed. `--text` matching is subtree containment: `find --text X --first`
returns the outermost matching container.

feat: add trace viewer and replay artifacts
Adds the trace read/replay layer on the session-first foundation: `trace show` merges per-process segments into one deterministic timeline (bounded JSON for agents), and `trace export` renders a single self-contained, XSS-safe HTML viewer for humans. Opt-in `session start --screenshots` captures pre/post-action screenshots and refmap copies; command.start/end boundary events and a versioned trace.meta header make a step-by-step replay reconstructable. Redaction is hardened so raw caller arguments never leak into trace-reachable error messages. Available across CLI, batch, and FFI.

feat: make sessions the first-class trace container
Sessions now own tracing: `session start` creates a manifest-gated trace sink with per-process JSONL segments under ~/.agent-desktop/sessions/<id>/trace/, so agents set the session once instead of passing --trace on every command. Bare --session stays snapshot-namespace-only; --trace <path> still overrides for CI and one-offs.

Adds session start/end/list/gc, activation resolution (flag > AGENT_DESKTOP_SESSION > pointer), FFI verification tests, and status fields for session_id + tracing.

feat: add --wait-for selector polling flags (#86)
Global --wait-for / --wait-for-gone (-w) and --wait-timeout flags that poll the accessibility tree until a role:text selector appears or disappears, then return the snapshot. Honored by snapshot and the 16 ref-action commands; post-action waits scope to the acted-on window. Closes #84.

Completes the FFI plan: U9 adds a Python ctypes smoke harness proving the C ABI from a non-Rust host; U10 adds cross-platform parity CI gates for header drift, codegen drift, panic-unwind, and stub-adapter passthrough; U11 generates the command-backed wrappers from build.rs templates with a committed drift-gated output. The C ABI stays byte-identical and the surface is Windows and Linux ready with no new FFI code.

feat: complete FFI C-ABI surface (Phase A) — handshake, pipeline entrypoints, log callback (#67)
* build: make cbindgen regenerate the C ABI static-assert guards

Add [const] allow_static_const = false to cbindgen.toml so every
pub const AD_*_SIZE emits as a #define macro (a C constant expression)
rather than static const (which is not valid inside _Static_assert).

Add a cbindgen.toml trailer with all 19 C11 ABI guards (6 sizeof, 6
_Alignof, 7 offsetof). Each sizeof guard references the corresponding
AD_*_SIZE macro so the size literal lives in exactly one place: the
Rust source. The Rust source already has compile-time asserts tying each
const to its struct, so the chain is: Rust const → #define macro →
_Static_assert → C compile gate.

Rename pub const MAX_C_STRING_BYTES to AD_MAX_STRING_BYTES so the
public ABI name matches the header macro (#define AD_MAX_STRING_BYTES)
and the internal const name no longer leaks. Update all call sites and
the describe() error string.

Pin cbindgen 0.29.4 in scripts/update-ffi-header.sh so regen is
reproducible.

* test: stabilize flaky wait-resolution test under CI load

element_wait_retries_transient_ambiguous_resolution and its sibling used a
250ms budget that the happy path clears instantly but a loaded CI runner
(full --lib --workspace in parallel) can exceed before the transient
AmbiguousTarget retry resolves — an intermittent red CI unrelated to any
code change. Raise the ceiling to 2000ms; the success path still returns on
the second resolve, so the test stays fast while becoming load-robust.

* refactor: enforce cbindgen version in update-ffi-header.sh

The script documented 0.29.4 as required but accepted any installed
version silently. A mismatched cbindgen can produce a semantically
different header with no diagnostic. Fail fast with a clear install
command if the version does not match exactly.

* feat: add ad_abi_version and ad_init ABI handshake

* refactor: address review on ad_abi_version

* feat: add ad_version FFI entrypoint

* refactor: move guard_non_null inside trap_panic for convention parity

All other FFI entrypoints validate input pointers as the first statement
inside trap_panic(|| unsafe { … }). ad_version placed the guard outside
the closure; align it with the uniform convention throughout the crate.

* feat: add session-scoped FFI adapter constructor

* refactor: address review on session context

* feat: add ad_set_log_callback with tracing layer

* refactor: address review on log callback

- Tighten core visibility: revert `pub mod trace` to `pub(crate) mod trace`,
  re-export only `sanitize_trace_value` at the crate root so the FFI crate
  imports it without exposing `TraceConfig` and internal helpers publicly
- Add per-thread re-entrancy guard (`IN_CALLBACK` + `CallbackGuard` RAII
  drop) to `on_event`: a consumer callback that emits `tracing` events now
  silently drops the recursive invocation instead of risking a stack overflow
  that `catch_unwind` cannot stop
- Update module doc and `ad_set_log_callback` `///` doc to document the
  re-entrancy protection; regenerate committed FFI header via cbindgen

* feat: add ad_snapshot with refmap pipeline

* refactor: address review on ad_snapshot

Promote app_error_to_adapter to pub(crate) in commands/mod.rs so future
command files share one conversion instead of copying the match per file.
Document the tri-state *out contract (null on arg/infra errors, populated
JSON envelope on command-level errors) in both the Rust doc comment and
the C header.

* feat: add ad_status FFI entrypoint

* refactor: address review on ad_status

* feat: add ad_wait with size-pinned AdWaitArgs

* refactor: DRY ad_wait field decoding

* fix: align command_context error return with errno-style last-error invariant

The context failure arm in ad_wait hardcoded ErrInternal while
set_last_error stored the actual mapped code; callers relying on
ad_last_error_code() == return value would see a mismatch. Mirror the
execute() Err arm and return last_error_code() instead.

* feat: add ad_execute_by_ref with strict resolution

* refactor: address review on ad_execute_by_ref

- extract app_error_to_adapter to error.rs pub(crate), removing
  duplicate copies from snapshot.rs and execute_by_ref.rs
- replace 24-line tri-state ref_id decode with required_adapter_string
- use last_error_code() on validate_ref_id failure path for consistency
- fix *out dual-channel doc (null on guard/decode failure, non-null
  JSON envelope on command-level errors) in both Rust doc and C header
- rename misleading test: stale_ref_returns_error → returns_error_envelope
  (missing refmap surfaces SNAPSHOT_NOT_FOUND, not STALE_REF)

* docs: restore ABI header comments lost in cbindgen regen

Add /// docs on the Rust source so cbindgen re-emits the privacy note on
ad_last_error_details, the AdResult forward-compat note, and the behavioral
descriptions for the ad_execute_action* family.

* refactor: dedup ad_wait error conversion via shared helper

Replace wait.rs's local app_error_to_adapter_error with the shared
commands::app_error_to_adapter, giving one canonical AppError->AdapterError
conversion across every ffi command.

* fix: harden ABI assert trailer against double-include, document panic guard

Add a one-shot #ifndef AGENT_DESKTOP_ABI_ASSERTS guard around the
_Static_assert trailer in cbindgen.toml so re-including agent_desktop.h
in a single translation unit is unambiguously safe in all C standards
(C11 already allows repeated file-scope _Static_assert, but the guard
makes the property explicit and unconditional).

Add c_header_double_include.rs regression test that includes the committed
header twice via the system cc and asserts the compile succeeds, mirroring
the existing c_header_compile.rs harness pattern.

For Finding #14 (panic=abort guard): empirical probe confirms that Cargo
always sets CARGO_CFG_PANIC="unwind" in the build script for this crate
regardless of the active profile's panic setting — because the crate
declares both cdylib and rlib crate-types. A build-time check would be
silently inert. Document the invariant and the infeasibility of the
CARGO_CFG_PANIC guard in build.rs module docs instead; the release-ffi
profile enforces unwind at the profile level.

* fix(ffi): surface foreign-subscriber conflict, soften ad_init wording, direct agents to ad_snapshot

Finding #15: replace discarded try_init result with OnceLock<bool> so the first
ad_set_log_callback call with a non-null callback returns ErrInternal when a
foreign global subscriber already owns the process, rather than silently no-oping.
Re-registration and NULL-unregister paths are unaffected. Adds three unit tests
covering the new routing logic.

Finding #8: soften ad_init and AD_ABI_VERSION_MAJOR rustdoc from mandatory
pre-call requirement to recommended ABI-compatibility check; behaviour unchanged.

Finding #12: rewrite ad_get_tree rustdoc to direct observe-act agents to
ad_snapshot (refs, refmap, JSON envelope) and reserve ad_get_tree for ref-less
raw-tree consumers; removes stale "invoke the CLI" guidance.

* refactor: unify FFI command envelope serialisation and fix wait/status error contract

Extract write_command_envelope into commands/envelope_out.rs, eliminating
the ~35-line guard→serialize→string_to_c block duplicated across all five
command modules (snapshot, execute_by_ref, wait, status, version).

ad_wait and ad_status now write the error JSON envelope into *out on
command-level failures (TIMEOUT, ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND, etc.), matching the
behaviour already present in ad_snapshot and ad_execute_by_ref. Guard and
infrastructure rejections (null adapter/out/args, off-main-thread, invalid
UTF-8) continue to leave *out null — the infra/command boundary is
preserved exactly.

Add ad_wait_command_error_writes_error_envelope_into_out to verify the
unified contract: a zero-timeout element wait that cannot be satisfied must
produce an ok:false envelope in *out, not a null pointer.

* test: add unit tests to write_command_envelope proving #3 contract

* build: regenerate FFI header after round-1 review fixes

* docs(ffi): document ownership/lifetime contracts on adapter destroy and wait

Add Safety note to ad_adapter_destroy that callers must not destroy the
handle while any call on it is in flight on another thread — concurrent
destroy + in-flight call is use-after-free (confirmed reachable: destroy
is main-thread-exempt while ad_wait holds &*adapter through its blocking
wait::execute loop).

Add blocking-duration and adapter-lifetime note to ad_wait.

Extend ad_snapshot's existing partial note to cover explicit window
targeting (window_id, not yet ABI-exposed) alongside skeleton/drill-down,
and add CLI guidance for agents that need those features today.

* refactor(ffi): route ad_execute_by_ref through canonical core pipeline

Fix four coupled architectural findings in the FFI execute_by_ref path:

#2 (P1): Delete bespoke run_ref_action that bypassed CommandContext tracing
and hard-coded ref_id "<ffi>". Route ad_execute_by_ref through a new
commands::execute_by_ref::execute in core, which calls the same
execute_ref_action_with_context pipeline the CLI click/type/etc. commands
use — full trace, strict resolution, and actionability preflight.

#7 (P2): Add nullable snapshot_id: *const c_char parameter as the third
argument. Tri-state: null → latest snapshot (prior behaviour), valid UTF-8
→ pin that snapshot id, non-null invalid UTF-8 → ErrInvalidArgs. Passes
snapshot_str.as_deref() to RefArgs.snapshot_id mirroring CLI --snapshot
semantics. Update all 7 call sites in c_abi_lifecycle.rs and the extern
decl in tests/common/mod.rs (c_abi_actions.rs had no sites).

#10 (P2): Make core the single source of policy truth. Add
Action::base_interaction_policy() (delegates to may_use_focus_fallback —
TypeText + PressKey → focus_fallback, everything else → headless) and
InteractionPolicy::join(self, other) (bitwise-OR on the two capability
flags: elevate-only, never downgrade). FFI maps AdPolicyKind → core
InteractionPolicy and calls base.join(caller_ip); core::execute_by_ref
does the base+elevation. Delete the bespoke effective_action_policy fn and
its six duplicated unit tests from the FFI; repointed truth-table coverage
lives in the six FFI tests that delegate to core and the join unit tests in
interaction_policy.rs. Note: PressKey's base shifts headless→focus_fallback
vs the old FFI-only fn — intentional alignment with the full CLI table.

#6 (P1, light): Success and error paths already route through the shared
write_command_envelope helper (no reintroduction of bespoke serialization).
Add a /// note on ad_execute_by_ref documenting dispatch-before-serialize
ordering so callers understand the near-impossible ErrInternal-after-action
scenario without requiring heavy pre-validation machinery.

* build: regenerate FFI header after core-routing fixes

* test(ffi): split c_abi_lifecycle and add observe→act roundtrip tests

Finding #4: c_abi_lifecycle.rs was 1127 LOC, violating the 400-LOC cap.
Extracted focused modules each well under 400 lines:
- c_abi_init.rs        (54 LOC) — ad_abi_version / ad_init
- c_abi_session.rs     (88 LOC) — session adapter ctor
- c_abi_log_callback.rs(182 LOC) — log callback tests + statics
- c_abi_json_commands.rs(165 LOC) — ad_version / ad_status
- c_abi_snapshot.rs    (131 LOC) — ad_snapshot guard + envelope tests
- c_abi_wait.rs        (178 LOC) — ad_wait guard + error-envelope tests
- c_abi_execute_by_ref.rs(167 LOC) — ad_execute_by_ref guard tests
c_abi_lifecycle.rs shrunk to 176 LOC (null-safety + list lifecycle).

Finding #5: add snapshot→execute_by_ref roundtrip tests.
- stale_ref_returns_ok_false_error_envelope: always runs in CI; sets a
  temp HOME (empty refmap), calls ad_execute_by_ref(@e1), asserts
  ok:false + error.code when the command path executes, tolerates
  ErrInternal/null-out for the macOS main-thread guard.
- snapshot_execute_by_ref_live_roundtrip: #[ignore]; needs AX permission,
  a live app, and main-thread execution (E2E harness).

* fix(ffi): zero ad_wait *out before args guard; correct PressKey policy docs

Review of the review fixes:
- ad_wait now zeroes *out before the args null-check so a null-args
  rejection honours the documented *out-zeroed contract (matches the
  other command entrypoints).
- Corrected the PressKey policy doc wording: focus_fallback is the
  shared base from Action::base_interaction_policy, not a claim of CLI
  ref-PressKey parity (no CLI ref-PressKey action exists).

* chore: remove stray rust_out build artifact and gitignore it

* fix(ffi): thread session context through legacy ref-action path and correct doc steering

Add execute_entry_with_context to core so the FFI legacy path
(ad_execute_ref_action_with_policy) threads the adapter's real
CommandContext — built from the session id set at adapter creation —
instead of CommandContext::default(). The existing execute_entry
delegates to it with default() so all other callers are unchanged.

Rewrite the /// docs on all three native-handle / legacy-struct
entrypoints (ad_execute_action, ad_execute_action_with_policy,
ad_execute_ref_action_with_policy) to remove the false "CLI parity"
steering and describe each accurately as a low-level escape hatch with
verbatim-policy dispatch. Point observe→act callers at ad_execute_by_ref.

Add core tests confirming execute_entry_with_context succeeds, delegates
correctly, and emits trace events when a trace path is configured. Add FFI
test confirming the session-adapter path resolves to the same error class
as the no-session path (session id is wired into trace, not the error
surface).

* refactor: unify CLI ref-action policy via CommandContext::request_base

All 16 ref-action commands previously hardcoded InteractionPolicy literals
that duplicated the intent already encoded in Action::base_interaction_policy().
Add CommandContext::request_base(action) which reads the canonical base from
the action itself and delegates to request(), then replace every hardcoded
call site so there is a single policy source of truth for CLI and FFI.

Update the all_context_request_callers_are_policy_tested guard to search for
context.request_base( rather than context.request(.

Behavior is byte-identical: headless() and focus_fallback() literals were
exact mirrors of what base_interaction_policy() returns for each action.

* docs(ffi): fix Safety doc, add header preamble, document live-test deferral

Finding #9: correct the # Safety section on ad_execute_by_ref to distinguish
ref_id (non-null required; null is defined but rejected with ErrInvalidArgs)
from snapshot_id (null is meaningful — latest snapshot). The param tri-state
doc was already accurate; only the Safety section implied false symmetry.

Finding #10: add an agent-workflow orientation preamble to cbindgen.toml via
the after_includes key. The 13-line C block-comment lands after sys-includes
and before declarations (inside the include guard), covering the full
ad_init → ad_adapter_create → ad_snapshot → ad_execute_by_ref →
ad_free_string / ad_adapter_destroy loop with the macOS main-thread
requirement. Verified via local cbindgen 0.29.4 regeneration; header not
committed (orchestrator regenerates).

Findings #2/#8: expand module doc and live-roundtrip #[ignore] test doc to
precisely explain why the full observe→act loop cannot run under libtest on
macOS (off-main-thread scheduler + AX guard), how to run manually, and that
the full-loop CI proof is deferred to plan unit U9 / Phase B (Python ctypes
external-consumer harness). Strengthen the always-running error-envelope test
with an error.message assertion (guaranteed by the error contract) without
pinning error.code (which varies by load path; pinning would cause flakiness).

* build: regenerate FFI header after round-2 review fixes

* fix: correct FFI doc/test gaps found in PR #67 audit

#7: replace non-existent ad_click/ad_type_text references in ad_get_tree
rustdoc with the real entrypoint (ad_execute_by_ref + AdAction).

#6: extend cbindgen.toml preamble with snapshot_id round-trip (pass
data.snapshot_id back to pin snapshot vs NULL for latest), AdAction
construction (zero-init + set kind + kind-specific fields), and policy
semantics (0=keeps built-in base, 2=Headed allows cursor/focus fallbacks).

#2: add dispatch-before-serialize note to ad_snapshot matching the
existing note on ad_execute_by_ref — refmap is written before JSON
serialisation, so a serialisation failure leaves *out null + ErrInternal
while the refmap is already on disk.

#10: add out-of-range policy test in c_abi_execute_by_ref.rs that passes
policy=99 and asserts ErrInvalidArgs|ErrInternal + out null, with the
last-error assertion gated on ErrInvalidArgs to tolerate macOS off-main-
thread CI returning ErrInternal before the policy check is reached.

* fix: make error suggestions transport-neutral and populate retry_command

Finding #4: STALE_REF, AMBIGUOUS_TARGET, ELEMENT_NOT_FOUND, SNAPSHOT_NOT_FOUND,
NOTIFICATION_NOT_FOUND, and POLICY_DENIED suggestion strings previously referenced
CLI-only flags (--skeleton, --snapshot, --session, --headed) or bare CLI subcommand
syntax (snapshot, list-notifications), making them meaningless to FFI consumers.
Rewritten to name the operation neutrally with both CLI and FFI equivalents in
parentheses.

Finding #15: ErrorPayload::retry_command was always None; the with_retry builder
existed but was never called from from_app_error. Added retry_token_for_code() to
populate the field for mechanically retryable codes: STALE_REF and SNAPSHOT_NOT_FOUND
get "snapshot;execute_by_ref" (re-snapshot then re-execute by ref); POLICY_DENIED gets
"escalate_policy" (policy escalation, not a re-run of the same call). All other codes
remain None to avoid misleading auto-retry loops.

Tests updated: stale_ref_suggestion_mentions_skeleton renamed and tightened to assert
transport-neutral content; snapshot_ref_tests.rs skeleton assertion updated to match;
four new output.rs tests cover the populated tokens and the None cases.

* fix(trace): wire session_id into every JSONL record, improve FFI ref label, drop duplicate test

#9: thread session_id (Option<&str>) through TraceConfig::emit/emit_lazy/write_event and
insert it as a top-level field after the sanitized fields block. This makes the docs true
for everyone (CLI + FFI when both --session and --trace are provided). session_id is not
in SENSITIVE_KEYS and is intentionally inserted after sanitize_trace_value so it cannot
be shadowed or redacted. Omitted entirely when context has no session (no null key).

#8: replace the opaque "<ffi>" ref label in execute_entry_with_context with a
role/path-index-derived label (e.g. "<button/2/0/3>"). Uses only role and numeric path
indices — no content fields — so the label is safe to emit in the unredacted "ref"
trace key. Improves per-record correlation in multi-element FFI trace logs.

#14: delete execute_entry_delegates_to_entry_with_context from ref_action_tests.rs.
The test was byte-identical in assertions to failed_action_still_releases_resolved_handle
and added no new coverage. Removed rather than forced a weak rewrite.

Tests added/updated:
- context.rs: trace_injects_session_id_as_top_level_unredacted_field (session set),
  trace_writes_jsonl_without_stdout_dependency extended with session_id absence assert
- ref_action_tests.rs: execute_entry_with_context_emits_trace_events extended to assert
  session_id in every emitted record; trace_records_omit_session_id_when_context_has_none;
  ref_label_from_entry_uses_role_and_path_indices

* fix(core): make stale-ref actionability suggestion transport-neutral; regen header

Mirrors the round-3 transport-neutral suggestion rewrite for the
live-staleness path in actionability, plus the regenerated FFI header
carrying the round-3 doc/preamble updates.

* refactor: dedup ffi policy mapping and error conversion helpers

Replace the duplicated AdPolicyKind→InteractionPolicy three-arm match in
execute_by_ref.rs with a canonical to_interaction_policy() method on
AdPolicyKind. Delegate action_request() in actions/execute.rs to the same
method, replacing its own redundant match. Replace the inline AppError→
AdapterError match in ad_execute_ref_action_with_policy with the shared
app_error_to_adapter helper already used everywhere else.

* refactor(ffi): apply ponytail/simplify cuts (then_some, trim core doc)

Use bool::then_some for ad_wait optional scalars; drop the FFI-history
sentence from the core execute_by_ref doc (the FFI doc retains it for C
binding authors). Behavior unchanged.

refactor!: over-engineering audit cleanup (#64)
* refactor!: drop vestigial version --json flag and dead code

The tool emits a JSON envelope for every command and has no plain-text
mode, so the version --json flag toggled nothing. Remove it end-to-end:
CLI flag, core VersionArgs, batch path, dispatch/main call sites, and the
snapshot test. Correct the stale skill docs (they documented a non-existent
plain-string default and wrong platform/arch keys; actual keys are
version/target/os, always inside the JSON envelope).

Also: delete dead code (AppContext, WindowContext, Response::with_app and
their re-export; core BatchArgs); inline single-caller helpers
(strip_ref_bounds_when_hidden, helpers::find_window_for_pid,
permissions::render); use libc::kill instead of a hand-declared extern in
refs_lock.

BREAKING CHANGE: the version command no longer accepts --json; it always
emits the standard JSON envelope.

* refactor: inline single-caller ffi conversions, drop dead from_c

Inline direction_from_c and snapshot_surface_to_core into their sole
callers. Remove AdImageFormat::from_c (production converts Rust->C only;
the C->Rust direction was dead, #[allow(dead_code)]) together with its
unit test and fuzz line. Drop the ErrorCode/AdResult cardinality assert:
the exhaustive error_code_to_result match plus the per-discriminant pins
already enforce the ABI invariant.

* refactor: dedup keycode table, inline single-caller macos helpers

key_to_keycode delegated the same 52-entry table that
keyboard_map::key_name_to_code already owns; delegate to it, guarding the
modifier names so a modifier passed as the primary key still resolves to
None (preserving existing behavior). Inline windows_from_records,
is_window_candidate, make_output, and the normalized_role_for_element
wrapper (which let one caller classify the same element twice); collapse
accessibility_report_state to its one-line form. Swap four local
HashSet dedup sets to FxHashSet (rustc-hash, already a dependency).

* chore: mark internal crates publish = false

These crates are workspace-internal (consumed only via path deps; CI never runs cargo publish). Marking them unpublishable prevents accidental crates.io release and makes removing unreferenced pub items unambiguously safe.

* fix: finish version --json removal in ci smoke test and help text

The version --json flag was dropped earlier but two references survived:
the npm smoke-test in ci.yml (which now errored on the unknown flag and
failed the job) and the --help text that still advertised it. Point both
at plain version, which emits the same JSON envelope. Add a batch
regression test asserting version now rejects args, and drop the
misleading {"json":true} from the stop-on-error fixture.

* test: guard ErrorCode<->AdResult bijection after counter removal

Code review flagged that dropping the cardinality counters left reverse
drift (a new AdResult error variant without a matching ErrorCode)
unguarded. The counters only weakly approximated this anyway: they
compared two hand-maintained variant arrays to each other, decoupled
from the real enums.

Replace them with a stronger, leaner guard: an exhaustive reverse match
(error_code_origin) that fails to compile if an AdResult error variant
is added without declaring its ErrorCode origin, plus a round-trip test
asserting the forward and reverse maps agree -- a consistency check the
counters never performed. Document the bijection contract on
error_code_to_result.

Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

* fix(review): preserve action results, delegate timeout resolution, tighten core boundaries

Apply verified code-review fixes: ref-action release failures no longer
mask successful action results (prevents double-dispatch on retry);
resolve_element_strict_with_timeout defaults to delegating so strict-only
adapters support wait --element; wait --text reports count only when
--count is requested; latest-refmap refresh logs load failures instead of
silently serving stale refs; InteractionPolicy moved to its own module and
actionability/trace modules scoped pub(crate) per file rules; duplicate
wait test helper extracted to shared support module; timeout error
constructors deduplicated; redaction test covers description; policy
focus-denial path covered; skills document steps array, actionability
details, trace redaction, and batch trace inheritance.

* fix(review): eliminate per-element AX round trips and close remaining review findings

Fold AXPosition/AXSize and the scrollbar probe into the existing
AXUIElementCopyMultipleAttributeValues batch so tree traversal and the
actionability preflight pay one IPC per element instead of up to four;
A/B benchmark shows strictly-faster snapshots with identical ref counts
and scroll capabilities (Finder 4.5s -> 2.4s same-session, Docker
Desktop parity at 440 refs / 933 scroll-capable nodes).

Consolidate the CLI and FFI ref-action pipelines into one core
execute_resolved path (actionability, tracing, and dispatch semantics
live once; FFI passes a default context). Remove the no-context
execute() shims from is/right-click/snapshot/wait and the test-only
helper shims; every command now takes an explicit CommandContext.

Split the macOS resolver into resolve (orchestration), resolve_search
(candidate collection), and resolve_classify (strict classification),
clearing the 400-LOC ceiling with room to grow.

Notification waits now retry transient baseline failures inside the
timeout budget with the same retryable gate as window/text waits and
report last_error in timeout details instead of aborting on the first
flake; a baseline is never fabricated.

Refmap writes clean up their temp file on failure, stale *.tmp orphans
are swept under the store lock, and save_existing_snapshot re-verifies
snapshot ownership inside the owning store's write lock with bounded
re-discovery before deterministically recreating in the caller's store.

Coverage hardening: zero-budget wait timeout shape, wait --text
--count 0 absence detection, ref-action pipeline call-count guard
(1 resolve / 1 live read / 1 dispatch), duplicate snapshot-id collision
on load, pruned-everywhere recreation, tmp sweep and rename-failure
cleanup, FFI AMBIGUOUS_TARGET last-error code assertion.

* docs: document notification retry, error-code contract, and diagnostics sensitivity

Note transient-error retry and last_error timeout detail on wait
--notification; make explicit that agents branch on error.code (message
and suggestion text is informational); warn FFI consumers that
ad_last_error_details may carry on-screen element names, values, and
window titles and should stay out of shared log surfaces.

* fix: validate find roles against the canonical vocabulary

find --role with a role no adapter can emit (textarea, typos) silently
returned ok with zero matches, reading as 'element absent' when the
query could never match. Role queries now resolve through a canonical
vocabulary in core: common text-input aliases (textarea, textbox,
searchfield) normalize to textfield case-insensitively, and unknown
roles fail with INVALID_ARGS carrying details.valid_roles so agents can
self-correct.

The macOS role mapping becomes a sorted single-source table with
binary-search lookup, and a conformance test pins every emitted role
(plus the unknown fallback and the synthesized cell role) to core's
CANONICAL_ROLES — the cross-platform contract Windows/Linux adapters
must map their native vocabularies into, enforced by the same
table + test pattern rather than convention.

* refactor: derive find role hints from the live tree, drop hardcoded vocabulary

Replace the canonical-role allow-list (and its hard INVALID_ARGS
rejection) with a tree-derived approach. A role filter that matches
nothing now returns ok with roles_present — the distinct roles actually
in the searched tree — so the caller distinguishes 'none on screen' from
a wrong role name and self-corrects. This needs no central role list: a
role any adapter newly emits surfaces in roles_present automatically,
with nothing to keep in sync across core and the platform crates.

A tiny role-query normalizer keeps the ergonomic win (textarea, textbox,
searchfield fold to textfield, case-insensitive) but never gates or
rejects — it is a synonym shim, not a vocabulary. The macOS role table
returns to its plain match form; the cross-crate canonical-vocabulary
list and its conformance test are gone.

* refactor: move protected-process knowledge out of core into the adapter

close-app hardcoded macOS/Unix process names (loginwindow, windowserver,
dock, launchd, finder) inside core, baking platform-specific knowledge
into the platform-agnostic crate. Windows would need csrss.exe/
winlogon.exe, Linux gnome-shell/Xorg. Add PlatformAdapter::
is_protected_process (default denies nothing); the macOS adapter owns its
list with substring matching over display and bundle identifiers. core's
close-app just asks the adapter. Also genericize a macOS-flavored test
fixture string so core carries zero native vocabulary even in tests.

Verified: core has no platform-native references in non-test source, no
cfg(target_os) gates; the only remaining cfg(unix)/libc use is securing
core's own refmap/trace/lock files with non-unix fallbacks.

* fix: stop close-app claiming a graceful quit it cannot confirm

close-app returned closed:true the instant a graceful quit was *sent*,
while the app was still running behind an unsaved-changes dialog —
a false completion claim. Empirically (NSWorkspace.runningApplications):
a clean quit completes in ~0.2s, a dialog-blocked quit never completes
on its own, and macOS confirms only that the quit request was sent, not
that the app terminated. Verifying by polling would add seconds of
latency on the exact (blocked) case it is meant to catch, so we do not
poll.

Graceful close now reports { method: graceful, requested: true } —
truthful and instant, no closed claim. --force is a synchronous SIGKILL,
so it reports { method: force, requested: true, closed: true }. Callers
needing graceful confirmation observe via list-apps / wait --window and
can drive a save dialog with snapshot + find, which is the agent-native
path.

* feat: add drag --drop-delay for reliable macOS drop registration

macOS drop targets need the dragged item to dwell over them before they
register as the destination; too short and the gesture lands as a drag
with no drop. The dwell was a hardcoded 500ms dead sleep. Expose it as
--drop-delay <ms> (CLI), drop_delay_ms (DragParams/AdDragParams, 0 =
adapter default sentinel matching duration_ms), and replace the dead
sleep with an event-driven dwell that posts LeftMouseDragged over the
destination every 16ms so the target stays highlighted instead of
dropping the drag mid-pause.

DRY: the C-to-core drag conversion (duration/drop-delay zero-sentinel)
was copied across three FFI sites; collapse them into AdDragParams::
to_core(). FFI ABI: AdDragParams gains drop_delay_ms (header + repr +
header-compile test). Tests: core threads the value into params and
response and omits the field when unset; FFI maps both optionals.

* fix: make action-bearing elements ref-able so scroll/expand can target them

E2E testing against a diverse fixture app surfaced that disclosure
(Expand/Collapse/Click) and scrollarea (Scroll) advertise actions but
never received refs — they are not in INTERACTIVE_ROLES — so the scroll,
expand, and collapse commands required a <REF> their own target roles
could never have. The commands were uninvokable against their primary
targets.

Ref allocation now gates on addressability, not role alone: an element
is ref-able if its role is interactive OR it advertises a primary action
(any action other than a bare SetFocus, which would ref-allocate inert
focusable containers). scrollarea and disclosure become ref-able;
scroll now works against a real app. Ref-count impact is modest
(fixture 61->72, Finder ~262).

Tests assert action-bearing containers get refs, SetFocus-only and inert
elements do not, and interactive roles stay ref-able without actions.
Contract docs (CLAUDE.md, SKILL.md) updated.

* fix: eliminate vacuous AX successes and harden resolution

Dogfooding the binary against a real fixture app surfaced five cases where a
command reported success without producing the effect, or failed with the wrong
error. Each is verified by independent before/after observation in the E2E
harness.

- is_menu_open no longer treats a latent AXMenuBar as an open menu, so select
  and wait --menu-closed stop seeing a permanently-open menu.
- set-value coerces the written AXValue to the element's existing CFNumber/
  CFBoolean/CFString type and verifies numerically, fixing sliders; steppers
  converge via AXIncrement/AXDecrement when AXValue writes are vacuous.
- double-click only claims success when the element advertises AXOpen; otherwise
  it fails closed instead of reporting a non-existent double-click.
- a completed resolution pass that proves a ref absent downgrades a deadline
  TIMEOUT to STALE_REF so removed elements fail with the correct code.
- expand/collapse verify the disclosure state and fall back to a press-toggle
  for press-driven disclosures; press-toggled containers expose EXPAND/COLLAPSE.

roles.rs adds the disclosure expandable role and normalizes textarea/textbox/
searchfield role queries to textfield.

* feat: add Playwright-style headed/headless interaction mode

Ref actions now run in exactly two modes. Headless is the default: semantic
accessibility operations only, no cursor movement, and a fail-closed
POLICY_DENIED when only a physical gesture would work. The global --headed flag
upgrades every ref action to permit focus stealing and cursor movement, so the
chain's physical click/double-click/scroll/keypress fallbacks can complete. The
AX path is always tried first, so --headed never regresses headless-capable
elements; it only adds fallbacks for elements that need a real gesture.

- CommandContext::request(action, base) builds the per-command request: each
  command declares its headless base (pure-AX headless; type uses focus_fallback
  because typing requires focus but never moves the cursor) and --headed upgrades
  any base to the headed policy.
- The internal/FFI "physical" policy is renamed "headed" throughout, including
  the C ABI enum (AD_POLICY_KIND_HEADED keeps discriminant 2) and bindings.
- Raw-input commands (press, hover, drag, mouse-*, key-down/up) are unchanged:
  always physical, mode-independent low-level escape hatch.
- Unit tests assert every ref command is headless by default and headed under
  --headed; docs (CONCEPTS, CLAUDE, skills) describe the two-mode contract.

* test: add E2E fixture app and dual-mode harness

Drives the release binary against a real SwiftUI/AppKit fixture and verifies
every effect by independent before/after observation — never the command's own
ok:true — so a command that reports success without an effect is caught. This is
the layer mock-adapter unit tests cannot cover: it exercises the contract
against the real macOS Accessibility API.

- AgentDeskFixture.swift exposes a fixed, diverse AX surface (native AppKit
  slider/stepper, gesture-only and ambiguous controls, a sheet, a press-toggled
  disclosure, async-appearing elements, a drag canvas). It is never tuned to
  make a command pass; a failure is a finding about the CLI or the harness.
- run.sh drives every ref-action command in BOTH headless and --headed mode with
  mode-specific target values, plus the double-click discriminator (headless
  fails closed with POLICY_DENIED, --headed completes) that proves the two modes
  differ. It also covers strict resolution, wait predicates, skeleton drill-down,
  sessions, trace redaction, surfaces, drag, expand, and force-close.
- The compiled fixture .app is a build artifact (gitignored; built on demand).

Run: cargo build --release && bash tests/e2e/run.sh (needs AX permission).

* fix: close review runtime, correctness, and security gaps

Addresses validated findings from the branch code review:

- chain: thread the chain deadline into increment_to_value so a non-converging
  stepper cannot spin up to 1024 AX round trips and blow past the timeout.
- mouse: a RAII guard posts LeftMouseUp if any fallible step of a drag returns
  early, so an error can never leave the mouse button held down system-wide.
- ffi: cap caller-supplied state/action/path counts before from_raw_parts,
  mirroring the existing MAX_MODIFIERS_PER_COMBO guard, to reject out-of-bounds
  reads from a garbage C count.
- wait: the actionable predicate now forwards the structured ActionabilityReport
  from error.details instead of dropping it to a flat message, so agents can see
  which check is blocking.
- scroll: gate the row-select fallback on policy.allow_focus_steal so a headless
  scroll can no longer silently change the user's table selection.
- actionability: delete the unreachable stable->StaleRef branch (stability_check
  never fails by design) and its now-dead failed_check helper.
- status: delete two pub wrappers with no production callers; the test now drives
  the real execute_with_report_with_context entry point.

* refactor: extract disclosure chain steps under the 400-LOC limit

chain_steps.rs had grown to 402 lines, over the hard per-file limit. The six
press-toggle disclosure helpers form a cohesive group and move cleanly into a
sibling chain_disclosure_steps.rs (following the chain_web_steps/
chain_menu_steps pattern); chain_defs.rs references the new module. No behavior
change.

* feat: focus the target window before ref-addressed physical input

Ref-action physical fallbacks (click/scroll/type) already brought the target
app frontmost before synthesizing CGEvents. The raw-input commands (drag, hover,
mouse-*) resolving a point from a ref did not — the resolver had the pid but
discarded it, so the adapter saw only coordinates and synthetic events could
land on whatever window happened to be frontmost.

Add a best-effort focus_app(pid) to PlatformAdapter (macOS uses
ensure_app_focused; other adapters default to not_supported). The point resolver
now focuses the ref's app before returning, so every physical interaction that
targets a known element raises its window first. Coordinate (--xy) input is
unchanged: the caller owns the target there.

* fix: add AdDragParams size guard and document the ABI breaks

AdDragParams gained a drop_delay_ms field but, unlike AdRefEntry, had no size
guard — an old caller's smaller allocation would let Rust read past it and turn
stack garbage into a real drop delay. Add AD_DRAG_PARAMS_SIZE, ad_drag_params_size(),
a compile-time layout assertion, and a zero-init note, matching the ref-entry
pattern.

This branch makes several consumer-visible contract changes that release
tooling must cut as a major. They are gathered here because the release workflow
ships the C header as an artifact.

BREAKING CHANGE: the C ABI and CLI/JSON contract changed on this branch.
- AdPolicyKind: AD_POLICY_KIND_PHYSICAL is renamed AD_POLICY_KIND_HEADED
  (discriminant 2 unchanged, so compiled binaries are safe; source-level C
  consumers must rename). No back-compat alias is kept — "physical" is gone.
- AdRefEntry grew (caller-allocated input); validate layout with
  AD_REF_ENTRY_SIZE / ad_ref_entry_size().
- AdDragParams grew; validate with AD_DRAG_PARAMS_SIZE / ad_drag_params_size()
  and zero-initialize before use.
- close-app graceful response no longer includes closed:true; it returns
  { method: "graceful", requested: true } because a graceful quit cannot be
  synchronously confirmed.

* test: harden and expand the E2E proof layer

Closes the honesty gaps the review found and covers the interactions that were
missing, all verified by independent before/after observation:

- twins: the fixture twins now record distinct effects (twin-a/twin-b) and the
  assert requires the ADDRESSED twin to fire (or AMBIGUOUS_TARGET), instead of
  passing on any ok:true.
- click: click-status is a counter, so the headed pass must observe a fresh
  increment rather than inheriting the headless pass's value.
- adds triple-click + hover (headed gestures), tab selection (TabView tabs are
  radiobuttons), context-menu open + item selection, and menu-bar enumeration
  via --surface menubar.
- adds a performance section reporting per-command CLI wall-clock (snapshot,
  find, get, click, set-value, type) with a soft <2s snapshot gate.
- documents the SwiftUI CommandMenu and cross-app drop limitations as tracked
  notes, not silent skips.

* docs: trim CLAUDE.md to standards and document gesture headless-capability

- CLAUDE.md: remove ~130 lines of reference material that duplicated code,
  Cargo.toml, or the skills (full PlatformAdapter trait dump, Key Types listing,
  macOS API listings, dependency/build-config tables, the 54-command table).
  Replaced the stale trait dump with a pointer to adapter.rs (which also fixes
  the review's stale-trait-docs finding) and kept only the non-obvious gotchas.
  CLAUDE.md is now standards, invariants, and conventions.
- Document, on macOS (Phase 1), which gestures have a headless path: most ref
  actions do; double-click via AXOpen; triple-click/hover/drag are cursor
  gestures with no AX equivalent (physical only). The command surface is
  platform-agnostic — a future Windows/Linux adapter that exposes a headless
  path lights it up with no command or core change. Added to README and the
  interaction reference.
- FFI skill: AD_POLICY_KIND_PHYSICAL is now AD_POLICY_KIND_HEADED.

* docs: capture gesture headless-capability learning and refresh policy docs

- Add best-practices/macos-gesture-headless-capability: which desktop gestures
  have a headless AX path on macOS (double-click via AXOpen; triple-click/hover/
  drag are physical-only; SwiftUI controls vs native AppKit), and why the command
  never decides — the platform adapter owns headless-vs-physical.
- Refresh two policy learnings for the physical->headed rename: ActionRequest::
  physical -> headed and AD_POLICY_KIND_PHYSICAL -> AD_POLICY_KIND_HEADED, noting
  the new global --headed upgrade path via CommandContext::request.

* fix: address review P2 correctness and reliability findings

- wait: cap each ref-resolution attempt (750ms) so a slow resolve cannot
  consume the whole wait budget on the first poll; the predicate is re-checked
  across the full timeout.
- wait: make LatestRefCache timing fields private (no external readers).
- wait: add a unit test for --menu-closed (asserts it waits for open=false).
- close-app: make the graceful and force responses symmetric — both carry
  `closed` (force confirms true; graceful cannot confirm, so false) instead of
  graceful silently omitting the field.
- close-app: test adapter-error propagation.
- adapter: the default resolve_element_strict_with_timeout now logs that it does
  not enforce the deadline, so an adapter that forgets to override it is visible
  in traces.
- type: a RAII guard restores the user's clipboard on every scope exit (success,
  error, panic) during the paste-based non-ASCII path, shrinking the clobber
  window to an unpreventable SIGKILL.

Note: the reviewer's "fail fast on AMBIGUOUS_TARGET with a pinned snapshot"
suggestion is not applied — existing tests prove transient ambiguity resolves on
retry even with a pinned ref (ambiguity is a property of the live tree, not the
refmap), so failing fast would regress intentional, tested behavior.

* perf: trim actionability preflight and resolve-search allocations

- action_list: gate the AXValue and AXExpanded `is_settable` probes on whether
  the role could plausibly carry that capability (unknown roles always probe),
  skipping up to two AX round trips per preflight on common click-only targets.
  No capability is lost — value/expandable roles still probe.
- resolve_search: reuse one scratch FxHashSet across nodes instead of allocating
  a fresh dedup set per node during path and recursive search.

* refactor: split actionability types into one file each

ActionabilityStatus, ActionabilityCheck, and ActionabilityReport move into their
own files under a new actionability/ module (following the tree/ and actions/
folder pattern); mod.rs keeps the check logic and re-exports the types. Honors
the one-domain-type-per-file rule without changing behavior.

* test: split fixture under the LOC limit and fix swift-ios issues

- Extract the reusable fixture components (status readout, native AppKit
  slider/stepper, drag canvas, card) into FixtureComponents.swift so each file
  is under the 400-LOC limit; build.sh now compiles every .swift in the dir.
- NativeSlider/NativeStepper implement updateNSView so a SwiftUI binding change
  syncs back to the NSView.
- The fixture no longer steals focus unconditionally on launch
  (activate ignoringOtherApps:false), so it cannot mask headless-policy focus
  violations; the harness drives focus explicitly.
- build.sh pins the SDK and a macOS 13 deployment target for reproducible builds.

* docs: document the optional error.details field and roles_present shape

- SKILL.md: note that the error object may carry an optional `details` (the
  actionability report, AMBIGUOUS_TARGET candidates, or a wait TIMEOUT's last
  observed state) and that responses should be parsed leniently — `details` and
  future fields are additive.
- commands-observation: show the no-match `find` response with the
  `roles_present` hint so callers can tell a wrong role name from "none on
  screen".

* fix: gate the ref-gesture focus raise on the interaction policy

Ref-addressed hover/drag raised the target app unconditionally, violating
the headless no-implicit-focus-steal contract. The point resolver now
returns the owning pid instead of focusing, and commands decide: headless
never raises, --headed raises once (drag focuses only the from-app, fixing
the cross-app double-focus). Responses report focused:true so multi-app
agents can detect the frontmost change.

* fix: abort failed drags at the origin and disarm the guard only on success

The mouse-up guard disarmed before the final fallible up-event, so a
failed final post left the button held. Worse, its corrective release
fired at the unreached destination, silently committing an aborted drag
as a completed drop (CGEvents resolve at their embedded coordinates).
The guard now owns the release: it disarms only after the up actually
posts, and an early return cancels by dragging back to the origin and
releasing there.

* fix: enforce the chain deadline inside increment steps

All dispatch sites construct ChainContext with deadline: None, so the
remediation parameter on increment_to_value never received a value and
the 1024-iteration loop ran unbounded by the chain timeout. The chain now
pins its resolved deadline into the context every step observes. Also
extracts the pure write-verification predicates and their tests to
chain_verify.rs, bringing chain.rs back under the 400-LOC limit.

* fix: pin the AdAction ABI layout and bound FFI string and array inputs

AdDragParams is embedded by value in AdAction, so its 8-byte growth grew
the struct C callers pass to ad_execute_action with no size guard —
old-layout callers under-allocate and stack garbage becomes a live
drop_delay_ms. Adds AD_ACTION_SIZE / ad_action_size() with a layout pin,
matching the AdRefEntry pattern.

Also hardens the input boundary: C strings are decoded with a bounded
NUL scan (AD_MAX_STRING_BYTES, sized for CLI argv parity) so a missing
terminator cannot walk arbitrary memory, and the single coarse 1024
array cap becomes published per-field caps (AD_MAX_REF_STATES/ACTIONS/
PATH_DEPTH) with tests just over each limit.

* perf: replace fixed input settle sleeps with state polls

ensure_app_focused slept 50ms per physical input even when the app was
already frontmost; it now polls AXFrontmost (1ms, 50ms deadline).
disclosure_settled slept an unconditional 40ms up to three times per
expand/collapse; it now polls the disclosed state (5ms, 200ms deadline),
converging immediately on fast UIs. The kAXFocusedAttribute settability
probe is gated by role_may_accept_focus, mirroring role_may_bear_value,
and key dispatch reuses ensure_app_focused instead of its inline
duplicate.

* feat: check a specific action in wait --predicate actionable

The actionable predicate hardcoded Click, so wait-then-type flows got a
false ready on fields that cannot accept text (the editability check only
runs for editing actions). --action selects click (default), type,
set-value, or clear, and the preflight mirrors each command's real base
policy (type uses its focus-fallback base).

* fix: redact title, url, help, and placeholder keys in traces

Window titles, URLs, tooltips, and placeholder text carry user content
just like names and values; the redaction list now covers them.

* test: harden the e2e harness and unify fixture AX labels

The harness now fails setup loudly when the fixture build or AX trust is
missing, rebuilds the fixture when sources are newer than the bundle,
asserts hover only against a freshly observed state, and force-collapses
the disclosure so the expand test proves a real flip. The slider/stepper
labels live solely on the NSViews (the AX-actionable elements), removing
the macOS-version-dependent race between two label sources, and the drag
canvas reports a zero frame when detached from a window.

* docs: record the perf commit type, pre-1.0 bump policy, and error details field

Adds perf: to the allowed commit types (release-please already maps it to
a Performance changelog section), records the pre-1.0 versioning policy so
a BREAKING footer is expected to cut a minor rather than a major, and
shows the optional error.details object in the error envelope docs.
The gitignored local AGENTS.md mirror got the same contract sync.

* fix: surface increment deadline expiry as timeout with the observed value

A chain deadline firing mid-increment returned Ok(false), so the step was
recorded as skipped, the chain exhausted into ACTION_FAILED, and the
control sat at a half-applied value the caller could not see — post-state
is only read on success, and ACTION_FAILED recovery guidance points away
from retrying. Expiry is now a TIMEOUT error carrying value_before,
value_at_timeout, target, and a mutated flag in details.

* perf: cap the disclosure settle poll to the chain deadline and widen its interval

The settle poll could spend 3 x 200ms x 5ms-interval reads (~360 IPCs)
per expand/collapse and overshoot the chain's own deadline. A new
CustomWithDeadline chain step threads the chain deadline into the
disclosure steps, the settle budget is min(200ms, remaining chain
budget), and the interval widens to 20ms (~30 IPCs worst case).

* fix: enforce the protected-process guard inside the adapter close path

The guard lived only in the CLI command layer, so ad_close_app could
force-kill session-critical processes (loginwindow, WindowServer, Dock)
that the CLI refuses. close_app_impl now refuses them before any side
effect with the exact CLI error contract, making CLI, FFI, and any future
consumer behave identically; the CLI preflight remains as an earlier
check against the same predicate.

* fix: make focused semantics honest and confirm window focus by polling

ensure_app_focused set AXFrontmost unconditionally and reported success
identically whether or not a raise happened; it now no-ops when the app
is already frontmost, so Ok (and the focused:true response field) means
"frontmost ensured" exactly as documented. focus_window_impl gains the
same confirmation poll after its raise, and the poll interval widens to
5ms (10 reads max in the 50ms window).

* fix: attach abort-state guidance to drag failures and document cancel limits

Drag synthesis errors surfaced as bare INTERNAL with no hint about the
gesture's end state. Failures now carry a suggestion stating the button
was released back at the origin (best-effort), no drop was committed,
and where the cursor ends; the guard doc spells out the two best-effort
limits (corrective posts can fail; a self-drop at the origin is a no-op
for most targets).

* refactor: split oversized files by responsibility under the 400-LOC limit

helpers_tests (426) splits into resolution/window/pipeline tests, a
ref-action+trace test file, and a shared entry-builder support module.
wait_element_tests (414) splits into predicate-behavior tests and
resolution/lifecycle tests over a widened wait_test_support. wait.rs
(395) loses the element-wait loop to wait_element.rs, and refs_store
(397) moves its tmp-cleanup/retention methods to a refs_store_prune
child module (declared via #[path] so the split keeps base_dir and
snapshots_dir private to the store).

* refactor: build the actionable preflight request per action name at parse

The policy mirror lived in a separate helper with a catch-all arm, so a
future action name could silently inherit the headless policy. Parse now
maps every --action name to the exact ActionRequest its real command
runs (type is the only focus-fallback), the catch-all is gone, and a
test pins each name's policy.

* refactor: move point resolution and the focus helper to point_resolve

PointResolveArgs, ResolvedPoint, the ref-or-xy resolver, and
focus_for_physical_input were accumulating in helpers.rs alongside
unrelated ref-action plumbing; they now live in a dedicated
point_resolve module consumed by hover and drag.

* test: keep the drag canvas AX label on the NSView only

The DragCanvas carried two label sources (the NSView and a SwiftUI
modifier on its representable), the same macOS-version-dependent race
the slider/stepper fix removed; the harness-facing label now lives
solely on the AX-actionable NSView.

* docs: sync skills and header with the focused, redaction, and wait contracts

Documents the ensured (best-effort, already-frontmost-aware) semantics of
focused:true and its absence-vs-false meaning, the four redaction keys
added in round 2 plus the substring-match behavior, the INTERNAL error
recovery row, the FFI wait-surface asymmetry, the cross-app drag
occlusion caveat, and the AdDragParams/AdAction layout history with the
adjudicated pre-1.0 breaks so fresh reviews stop re-finding them.

* fix: surface settle-wait deadline truncation as timeout with a schema discriminant

A chain deadline truncating the disclosure settle wait returned a plain
step failure, exhausting into ACTION_FAILED — the same masking class
fixed for increments — even though the triggering action may still land
after the truncated wait. Settle exits are now classified: full-budget
misses stay step failures, deadline-truncated waits raise TIMEOUT with
the wanted/observed state, and the poll sleeps are clamped so a tight
deadline still gets at least one read. All TIMEOUT details now carry a
kind discriminant (wait_timeout vs chain_deadline) so agents can branch
without sniffing field names.

* fix: match protected processes exactly, not by substring

'docker'.contains('dock') permanently blocked close-app for Docker,
FinderSync-class apps, and anything else embedding a protected name.
Matching is now an exact lowercase name or an exact dot-separated
bundle-id component, so Dock and com.apple.dock stay protected while
Docker, Docker Desktop, FinderSync, and PathFinder stay closable —
pinned by false-positive tests.

* fix: raise the element's window before the physical click fallback

CGEvents land on the topmost window at the click point, so an app being
frontmost is not enough when the target element lives in a background
window of that app — the physical fallback clicked whatever overlapped
it, and the skip-raise-when-frontmost optimization widened the window
for that. click_via_bounds now raises the element's own AXWindow (AXRaise,
AXMain fallback, brief confirmation poll) via a shared window_ops helper
that focus_window_impl reuses. Verified live: a headed click on a ref in
an occluded Finder window raises that window and lands the click in it.

* test: guard ref-action policy coverage against silent gaps

A new ref-action command could ship without a base-policy assertion. A
guard test now scans crates/core/src/commands/ for files calling
context.request( and fails unless each stem appears in the
POLICY_TESTED_COMMANDS list backing the policy assertions.

* fix: carry the protected-process suggestion on the CLI preflight

The CLI-layer guard returned bare INVALID_ARGS while the adapter layer
carried recovery guidance, so agents on the primary surface got 'check
command syntax' for a permanently-disallowed operation and looped on
argument fixes. Both layers now state the same suggestion.

* docs: document the TIMEOUT schemas, chain deadline knob, and roles_present scope

Names the two TIMEOUT details schemas by their kind discriminant with
the mutated-flag retry rule, points chain-deadline recovery at
AGENT_DESKTOP_CHAIN_TIMEOUT_MS instead of --timeout, extends the
roles_present hint to all non-count selection-mode misses, and aligns
the STALE_REF recovery row with the richer error.rs suggestion.

* test: extract the scroll card and document drag-canvas data flow

AgentDeskFixture.swift sat at exactly 400 lines; the scroll card is
fully self-contained (its offset state never leaves the card), so it
moves to FixtureCards.swift as a standalone view with zero bindings,
landing the main file at 374. Harness-facing labels are byte-identical.
DragCanvas gains two intent comments distinguishing the deliberately
empty updateNSView from a forgotten sync.

* chore: pin ABI sizes for C consumers and explain the prune module split

C11-gated _Static_asserts mirror the Rust-side layout pins so a C
consumer compiling against a drifted header fails at build time, and
the production #[path] prune module carries its privacy rationale.

* test: give racing wait tests a deterministic budget

Three wait tests used a 1ms timeout that can elapse before the loop's
first resolution attempt under load, flaking on machine pressure (the
ambiguous-resolution test needs at least one attempt to record its
observation). 50ms guarantees the first attempt without slowing the
suite.

* docs: capture three round-4 review learnings and grow the concept map

Documents the abort-state contract for multi-step physical input (guard
disarm ordering, origin release, end-state suggestions), the three-layer
repr(C) size-pinning discipline born from the AdAction silent-growth
incident, and the named-arms-plus-exhaustiveness-guard pattern for
policy/dispatch mirrors. CONCEPTS.md gains Action Chain and Protected
Process and refreshes Coordinate Fallback with the window-topmost rule.

* docs: refresh six learnings against the enhanced-reliability branch

Brings the learning corpus back in line with code that moved this
branch: the gesture-capability and policy docs now describe the
window-level raise in the physical path and link the new abort-state
doc, the reliability contract documents the TIMEOUT kind discriminant
and the wait --action per-name policy variant, the FFI review rule
covers structural repr(C) size drift alongside behavioral parity, the
allocator doc records how the config struct absorbed four more fields
in one place, and the fingerprint doc names the real tri-state decode
error type. Three docs verified accurate with no edits.

* docs: sync roadmap with current reliability contracts

* fix: harden desktop action reliability

* fix: close final reliability review gaps

* fix: close reliability review gaps

* test: avoid raw pointer mutation in ffi free tests
