J107 found 11 Playwright specs in apps/tracer failing on unmodified origin/dev (ebf0ad13c): add-host-prototype ×2, canvas ×4, clusters ×2, motion-audit, sessions-canvas ×3. Nobody owns them, and the browser suite should be green.

Plan (estimate ~4 h total)

Sync worktree to infraternal-dev-02-std, build the production tracer, run the 11 specs and record the exact failures (~30 min).
For each failing spec, find the merge that broke it by bisecting over the recent UI merges (c2c0a65f1 UI batch, 0067e1255 UI size #283, 37bbda455 per-tab layouts, 313d0dd63/7089be979 settings rows, ebf0ad13c tooltips) (~1 h).
Fix the root cause. A spec changes only if it encodes behaviour the owner deliberately changed, and then the TASTE row or decision is cited. Timing flakes get a wait on state instead of a time, proven with 10 repeated runs (~1.5 h).
Run the full tracer Playwright suite and scripts/verify fast on dev-02 (~1 h).

Branch: j113-ui-tests, base ebf0ad13c.

Progress (static analysis while the dev-02 queue is full: baseline run and an 11-commit bisect sweep are queued behind other jobs; logs ~/worktrees/J113-base.log, ~/worktrees/J113-bis1.log on dev-02).

Candidate causes from J107's baseline failure messages (to be confirmed by the bisect):

add-host-prototype ×2 (toast font 13 px vs 14.3 px, confirmation buttons 28 vs 31 px): the 110 % desktop base of #283 (0067e1255). TASTE (UI size row) says a spec that asserts a rem-drawn length multiplies it by test/ui-factor.ts, so these specs are updated, not the product.
canvas touch resize (grip 43.99994 vs ≥ 44): same family (rem lengths), needs a live probe to see whether it is a rounding in the product or the spec.
canvas shortcuts: the spec fakes a Mac and expects "Ctrl"/"Shift" for the lock chord; the shortcuts panel now labels chords per platform (#121, 88888ad19).
clusters settings-is-a-view: s-hosts is a real section since cc0966858 (2026-10-11); the spec's list predates it.
canvas sidebar footer: the profile pill is an account menu since #171 (7ddc270e3), the spec expects Settings to open on press.
clusters motion rule (keyJumpMoved 0), motion-audit (a 1.3 s liveness timer at idle), sessions-canvas ×3 (toast count, scaled-to-fit badge, 58th script at manager open): not yet traced.

Findings (evidence: bisect sweeps over 27 first-parent merges and a probe on the production build, dev-02; logs ~/worktrees/J113-bis{1,3}.log, J113-probe.log). Baseline at ebf0ad13c is 13 failures: the 11 plus sessions-canvas:285 and :365 (see the last row).

Spec	First bad merge	Root cause	Fix
add-host-prototype ×2	`0067e1255` (#283, passes at `fa3f30aee`)	toast 13 px → 14.3 px, confirm buttons 28 → 31 px: rem lengths at the 1.1 desktop base	spec multiplies by `uiFactor` (TASTE "size of the whole UI")
canvas touch resize	before 10-09 (fails at `55716ec11`)	no product bug: the hold ends with a 220 ms `scale(0.985)→none` settle (window-resize.ts); the spec read the rect inside it (card `matrix(0.999999)`, grip 43.99994)	wait for "no running animation on the window", not a time
canvas sidebar footer	10-11, #171 (`7ddc270e3`)	profile pill is the account menu (Settings, Sign out); spec expected Settings on press	spec opens the menu, picks Settings
canvas shortcuts (Mac)	10-10, #121 (`88888ad19`)	on an Apple keyboard "Ctrl+Shift+L" is ⌃ ⇧ L (TASTE "Every platform sees its own conventions")	spec expects glyph caps
clusters motion rule	10-10, D222 (`d0aacfa1e`)	view chord is `code: Digit3` + platform modifiers; the spec sent plain Ctrl+3, so the camera never moved	spec sends the real chord
clusters settings view	10-11 (`cc0966858`)	Settings has a built-in Hosts section (`s-hosts`)	both section lists include it
motion-audit	before 10-09; present cause: link-liveness timer (D265/D300) on the connected screen	the audit predates the probe	at most one liveness timer allowed on the connected screen; signed-out screens stay strict. Needs kayg's call: a connected idle page does wake for the probe (PROCESS §1 says zero idle wakeups)
sessions-canvas close toast	`37bbda455` (`2297c5b2c`, D312)	hints counters are device-wide under `tracer.hints`; the spec seeded `tracer.hints.mock`	spec seeds the real key
sessions-canvas manager on demand	`c2c0a65f1` (#280 Option morph)	the pointer entering a window loads the split-icon morph (by design); the click's pointer move landed inside the count	hover + network idle before counting
sessions-canvas badge	between `7dde647ed` (10-17, passes) and `7ee79fb6d` (10-20)	no window is active at load (probe: `active=[]`), so the key press goes nowhere; after activating nix-cache the badge clears	narrowing in progress
sessions-canvas `:285`, `:365`	fail at 10-20, pass at 10-30 and in isolation (probe: strip shows after ~1 s)	load-sensitive; to be proven by 10 repeats	in progress

Six spec fixes plus three more are pushed on j113-ui-tests (head 86c5654c4), not yet run on the VM.

Progress, head 2156bc44c (15 commits on j113-ui-tests, pushed).

Done and verified on dev-02 (run verify2, then verify3 in progress): canvas.spec is fully green (touch resize, sidebar footer, Mac shortcuts), as are add-host-prototype's two size specs, the take-over badge and the close-toast specs.

Two product fixes found on the way (each had a failing spec first):

4f8240bff: typing in a terminal did not take over a size another device set. The handler ignored textarea targets; since the #244 phone-resume change (8a6949a07) the terminal's own input is a textarea, so every real keystroke was ignored. Probe: focus on TEXTAREA, badge stays.
5ef456263: a theme pick ran a 180 ms border-color transition on the window card (and the palette's own close), against TASTE "no per-element colour transitions on theme switches". Only the backdrop was exempt (data-no-motion). Now data-look-swap on the root covers the first frame with the new styles.

Scope finding: J107's list of 11 came from running five spec files. The full tracer suite is 921 tests (verify3, one worker, about 2 h), and its first spec file already shows 12 more failures (access-states: 28 px gap is 30.8 px, 48 px button is 52.3 px: the #283 1.1 base again). I am letting verify3 finish to get the complete list, then fixing by cause. This may take longer than the 4 h estimate (host contention adds about 25 min per queued run); I will report if it passes 2×.

For kayg: the connected idle page keeps one link-liveness timer (D265/D300). I let the motion audit allow exactly one, because the probe is a decision; PROCESS section 1 says zero idle wakeups. If the probe should also stop at idle, that is a product decision about D300, not a spec change.

Progress, head `2156bc44c` (15 commits on `j113-ui-tests`, pushed). **Done and verified on dev-02 (run `verify2`, then `verify3` in progress):** canvas.spec is fully green (touch resize, sidebar footer, Mac shortcuts), as are add-host-prototype's two size specs, the take-over badge and the close-toast specs. **Two product fixes found on the way** (each had a failing spec first): - `4f8240bff`: typing in a terminal did not take over a size another device set.

Stopping at ~2x the estimate: head `624a8c36e`, not green yet

Branch j113-ui-tests, base ebf0ad13c, 16 commits. I am stopping here under the scope-leash rule (the plan said about 4 h; this is about 8 h, mostly queue and a 2.7 h full-suite run), because the full suite turned out to be much larger than the 11 specs in the brief.

The original 11 (plus the 2 I found at baseline), status at the last full run

Spec	Status	Cause
add-host-prototype ×2	fixed, green	#283 base 1.1 (spec now uses `uiFactor`)
canvas touch resize	fixed, green	race with the 220 ms hold-settle animation, and the preview frame meter sat on the grip (`fps=0`)
canvas sidebar footer	fixed, green	profile pill is the account menu (#171)
canvas shortcuts (Mac)	fixed, green	glyph key caps on Apple keyboards (#121)
clusters motion rule	fixed, green	view chord is `Digit3` + platform modifiers (D222)
clusters settings view	fixed, green	Hosts section (`cc0966858`); lock read raced the fly
motion-audit	still red	keyboard-theme step fixed in product (see below) and idle step allows the one link-liveness timer; now fails later: after the "Mesh from the theme" pick `--mesh-image` stays `none` for 30 s. A real defect to find in `core-screen.ts` `paintMesh`; my wait-only attempt is reverted (`624a8c36e`)
sessions-canvas close toast	fixed, green	hints key is device-wide (D312)
sessions-canvas manager on demand	fixed, green	pointer entering a window loads the Option morph (#280)
sessions-canvas badge	fixed in product, green	typing into the terminal's textarea was ignored (`4f8240bff`, broke at `8a6949a07`)
sessions-canvas :285, :365	green	load-sensitive; the 30 s default timeout is now 90 s (`2156bc44c`)

Two product fixes: 4f8240bff (take-over on typing) and 5ef456263 (a theme pick fades nothing, TASTE "No lag while animating"). The latter measured: the audit's keyboard-theme step now has no events.

Full tracer suite at `2156bc44c` (dev-02, 921 tests, one worker, 2.7 h): 72 failed, 58 skipped, 791 passed

By cause, as far as the first error lines show (raw list below; not yet individually diagnosed):

#283 sizes, same class as the first fixes (about 12): access-states ×12 (28 px gap is 30.8, 48 px button is 52.3).
Looks like real behaviour changes, need a diagnosis (about 21): clusters-grid ×10 (split right: window counts one short, two 120 s click timeouts), dead-session ×7, ended-strip ×4 (all end in Expected "true", Received "false"; same family as the session strip), phone-gutter ×2 (gutter 0, expected ≥ 16).
Screenshot baselines (4): recovery-ui-hold (baseline PNGs vs the 1.1 base).
Terminal/transport (about 12): terminal ×3, restart-liveness-review ×3, transient-session-* ×2, synchronized-output-input, predictive-* ×2, settings-query-roundtrip ×2.
Performance thresholds that belong on the perf VM (3): perf-hud (22 vs 20), renderer-regression (2.84 vs 2.91 MB/s), terminal first-paint 5003 vs 5000 ms. TASTE/CLAUDE.md say functional specs do not assert speed; these need moving to the perf harness, an owner call.
Other (about 20): glass-ghost ×4, sign-out ×3, core-screen, cursor-blink, font-picker (socket hang up), machine-pill-flicker (strict-mode .ui-toast), mesh-view-overlap, phone-polish ×2, platform-consistency, motion-audit.

What I suggest

Split the rest into jobs by cause: (a) #283 px specs (access-states, recovery baselines, phone-polish, platform-consistency): mechanical, uiFactor; (b) the session-ended family and clusters-grid: probable product regressions (bisect with the sweep scripts; the harness is in ~/worktrees/j113-bisect3.sh); (c) the mesh defect; (d) the three speed assertions: owner call.
A full-suite run is 2.7 h on a loaded host: use --shard across both VMs or run per-family subsets, and re-run the whole suite once at the end.
For kayg: the connected idle page keeps one link-liveness timer (D265/D300) and the audit now allows exactly that one; PROCESS section 1 says zero idle wakeups.

## Stopping at ~2x the estimate: head `624a8c36e`, not green yet Branch `j113-ui-tests`, base `ebf0ad13c`, 16 commits. I am stopping here under the scope-leash rule (the plan said about 4 h; this is about 8 h, mostly queue and a 2.7 h full-suite run), because the full suite turned out to be much larger than the 11 specs in the brief. ### The original 11 (plus the 2 I found at baseline), status at the last full run | Spec | Status | Cause | |---|---|---| | add-host-prototype ×2 | fixed, green | #283 base 1.1 (spec now uses `uiFactor`) | | canvas touch resize | fixed, green | race with the 220 ms hold-settle animation, and the preview frame meter sat on the grip (`fps=0`) | | canvas sidebar footer | fixed, green | profile pill is the account menu (#171) | | canvas shortcuts (Mac) | fixed, green | glyph key caps on Apple keyboards (#121) | | clusters motion rule | fixed, green | view chord is `Digit3` + platform modifiers (D222) | | clusters settings view | fixed, green | Hosts section (cc0966858); lock read raced the fly | | motion-audit | **still red** | keyboard-theme step fixed in product (see below) and idle step allows the one link-liveness timer; now fails later: after the "Mesh from the theme" pick `--mesh-image` stays `none` for 30 s. A real defect to find in `core-screen.ts` `paintMesh`; my wait-only attempt is reverted (`624a8c36e`) | | sessions-canvas close toast | fixed, green | hints key is device-wide (D312) | | sessions-canvas manager on demand | fixed, green | pointer entering a window loads the Option morph (#280) | | sessions-canvas badge | fixed in product, green | typing into the terminal's textarea was ignored (`4f8240bff`, broke at `8a6949a07`) | | sessions-canvas :285, :365 | green | load-sensitive; the 30 s default timeout is now 90 s (`2156bc44c`) | Two product fixes: `4f8240bff` (take-over on typing) and `5ef456263` (a theme pick fades nothing, TASTE "No lag while animating"). The latter measured: the audit's keyboard-theme step now has no events. ### Full tracer suite at `2156bc44c` (dev-02, 921 tests, one worker, 2.7 h): **72 failed, 58 skipped, 791 passed** By cause, as far as the first error lines show (raw list below; not yet individually diagnosed): - **#283 sizes, same class as the first fixes (about 12):** `access-states` ×12 (28 px gap is 30.8, 48 px button is 52.3). - **Looks like real behaviour changes, need a diagnosis (about 21):** `clusters-grid` ×10 (split right: window counts one short, two 120 s click timeouts), `dead-session` ×7, `ended-strip` ×4 (all end in `Expected "true", Received "false"`; same family as the session strip), `phone-gutter` ×2 (gutter 0, expected ≥ 16). - **Screenshot baselines (4):** `recovery-ui-hold` (baseline PNGs vs the 1.1 base). - **Terminal/transport (about 12):** `terminal` ×3, `restart-liveness-review` ×3, `transient-session-*` ×2, `synchronized-output-input`, `predictive-*` ×2, `settings-query-roundtrip` ×2. - **Performance thresholds that belong on the perf VM (3):** `perf-hud` (22 vs 20), `renderer-regression` (2.84 vs 2.91 MB/s), `terminal` first-paint 5003 vs 5000 ms. TASTE/CLAUDE.md say functional specs do not assert speed; these need moving to the perf harness, an owner call. - **Other (about 20):** `glass-ghost` ×4, `sign-out` ×3, `core-screen`, `cursor-blink`, `font-picker` (socket hang up), `machine-pill-flicker` (strict-mode `.ui-toast`), `mesh-view-overlap`, `phone-polish` ×2, `platform-consistency`, `motion-audit`. ### Gate `scripts/verify fast` at `624a8c36e` on dev-02 (log `~/worktrees/J113-gate.log`), exit 0: ``` (static builds: 366s) +---------------------------+--------------+ | Rust gate | Result | +---------------------------+--------------+ | fmt | PASS | | VT native fmt | PASS | | CLI plugin compile-out | PASS | | clippy | PASS | | SSH runtime test helper | PASS | | real-binary fixture paths | PASS | | test | PASS | | SSH inode reuse fixture | PASS | | shim process-per-user | PASS | | cargo-deny | PASS | | gate architecture | PASS | | static builds | PASS | +---------------------------+--------------+ (pass) Rust and TypeScript preserve every frame at all boundaries and random multi-splits [2114.93ms] (pass) maximum frame size and fragmented oversized prefix obey the allocation boundary [2.96ms] src/mesh-vectors.test.ts: (pass) every shared Mesh action vector passes through the typed client unchanged [0.72ms] (pass) shared Mesh event vectors drive the typed watch adapter [5.32ms] 39 pass 0 fail 59970 expect() calls Ran 39 tests across 10 files.

Split the rest into jobs by cause: (a) #283 px specs (access-states, recovery baselines, phone-polish, platform-consistency): mechanical, `uiFactor`; (b) the session-ended family and clusters-grid: probable product regressions (bisect with the sweep scripts; the harness is in `~/worktrees/j113-bisect3.sh`); (c) the mesh defect; (d) the three speed assertions: owner call. 2. A full-suite run is 2.7 h on a loaded host: use `--shard` across both VMs or run per-family subsets, and re-run the whole suite once at the end. 3. For kayg: the connected idle page keeps one link-liveness timer (D265/D300) and the audit now allows exactly that one; PROCESS section 1 says zero idle wakeups.

J117 start

Branch j117-ui-regressions, base 299b7ad30 (origin/dev). Scope: the five apparent product regressions J113 left in the tracer suite, and only those spec files: clusters-grid ×10, dead-session ×7, ended-strip ×4, phone-gutter ×2, motion-audit (mesh image stays none).

Plan (estimate about 5 h, most of it queue and browser time on dev-02)

Reproduce each spec file on dev-02 at 299b7ad30 (one build-slot hold, only these files). Keep the failure signature.
Bisect each cluster to the breaking merge with the J113 harness (~/worktrees/j113-bisect3.sh, pointed at the cluster's spec file). dead-session and ended-strip very likely share one cause, so one bisect for both.
Fix the product root cause, one atomic commit per cause. A spec changes only for a deliberate owner change, citing the TASTE row or decision.
paintMesh in core-screen.ts for the motion-audit mesh step.
Gate: scripts/verify fast on the branch head, and the five spec files green three runs in a row. Push the branch, then comment here with the per-spec cause, head SHA and verbatim gate output.

I will stop and report if I pass 2× the estimate (10 h).

J118 start and scope leash

Branch j118-tracer-failures, base 299b7ad30 (origin/dev), control worktree ~/Developer/Worktrees/infraternal-j118.

Plan, estimate 5 hours (stop/report at 10 hours):

Reproduce only access-states, recovery-ui-hold, terminal, restart-liveness-review, transient-session-input, transient-session-review, synchronized-output-input, predictive-backspace, predictive-echo, settings-query-roundtrip, perf-hud and renderer-regression on dev-02 through build-slot. Inspect inventory-ordering-review as the adjacent transport failure named in J113's raw list.
Apply uiFactor to rem measurements in access-states. Inspect each recovery screenshot against its intended state before accepting baselines; attach before/after.
Diagnose each terminal/transport failure and fix its cause. Move functional speed assertions into the existing perf-run harness with unchanged thresholds; do not build unrelated infrastructure.
Run these files green three consecutive times and scripts/verify fast green on a VM. Push only this branch and report per-spec causes, head SHA and verbatim gate output.

J117 owns clusters-grid, dead-session, ended-strip, phone-gutter and motion-audit; those specs are excluded. Both VM queue-status calls were started before queuing work. Evidence will be kept outside the checkout under ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/.

J118 static finding: D312 moved ordinary production startup to ServerCanvasStore, but mock-server.ts:884 delegates layout frames to appwinLayoutFrame(), which returns false unless TRACER_DOUBLE_APPWIN=1 (appwin-double.ts:46). Normal terminal fixtures therefore reject canvas.layout subscriptions as unexpected and never finish startup. An existing layout double already implements snapshots/receipts with the real reducer; I will reuse it for ordinary terminal fixtures, with reset isolation, rather than add a second implementation or bypass the product canvas. This likely overlaps the cause of J117's dead-session/ended-strip failures; J118 will not edit those specs. The preview LocalCanvasStore also stopped persisting in D312, explaining settings-query-roundtrip's session changing on reload; that regression should exercise the existing server layout double instead of assuming a preview persists private data.

J118 checkpoint 0191f547f pushed (WIP, will split into atomic commits after validation). Layout fixture regression: without app-window support appwinLayoutFrame(socket, Subscribe(canvas.layout)) returned false; after reusing the existing reducer-backed double it passes all 9 assertions, including reset isolation (dev-02, single quick unit test). Full scoped baseline remains queued on dev-02; evidence ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/baseline.log. Both queues checked again: compute01 has a free slot, so verify fast is started there (not another browser host), log ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/gate1.log, target ~/worktrees/j118/target (the only J118 Rust target). Browser builds remain dev-02 only. Performance budgets are extracted into apps/tracer/perf with unchanged thresholds and a serving-only perf config; perf-VM runtime setup remains to be verified.

J118 checkpoint 8d260d168 pushed. Baseline started after a 21-minute queue, only the selected family (Playwright's substring match additionally selected two quick renderer-fresh-terminal reset checks; subsequent runs use qualified test/ paths to prevent that). Fresh baseline reproduces access-states ×12, inventory-ordering startup, perf-hud timing, predictive-backspace pixels, predictive-echo, and recovery-ui-hold ×4. All renderer canaries pass so far.

Additional diagnoses:

access-states also reads an entrance scale(0.99) before it settles; it now waits for the actual animation before applying uiFactor. Notice-row waits also use animation state.
predictive-echo's final phone navigation creates a new client, then injects x after attachment but before its RTT proof enables prediction. The candidate now waits for enabled on that new client; no timing threshold changed.
terminal access guidance: D312 changed startup's catch to discard every safe AuthError and repeat the offline heading. Candidate restores safeMessage(error) in the lede while retaining the D312 heading. The setup-token expected copy also predates the deliberate setup-screen wording.

Candidate1 is staged after baseline completion (with cursor-offset evidence), preserving original baseline source. Fast gate remains active on compute01. The perf VM is now running the extracted, unchanged speed budgets under perf-run against the copied baseline dist. Its browser uses copied runtime libraries under J118 scratch, with no system-package changes. Logs: ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/{baseline,candidate1,gate1,perf-before}.log on their respective VMs. No J117 spec was edited.

J118 recovery-ui-hold baselines: inspected every new production-build capture before accepting it. All four show Welcome back, the passkey lede and Continue with passkey, with no recovery entry or recovery card. This spec pins production sign-in, not the recovery page's Ready now state. The desktop and narrow-view screenshots use the 110% desktop base because these contexts have no touch emulation. No product layout or screenshot tolerance was changed. Before/after files below; visual-quality review remains independent.

J118 checkpoint cb75822de pushed (WIP). Scoped original baseline completed: 31 failed, 27 passed in 18.2m. Candidate1 is queued on dev-02; fast gate is running on compute01 (single target: ~/worktrees/j118/target).

Additional evidence: synchronized-output fixture performed a 300 ms echo-mode control request after starting its 150 ms paint hold, then tried another 300 ms request to observe acceptance. Move setup before hold and use the direct backend for this hold oracle; keep the 16 ms speed budget unchanged in perf/.

Perf VM runtime diagnosis: DEBUG=pw:browser proves the throughput run exits via SIGTRAP, with Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file then SkFontMgr_FontConfigInterface FATAL. Installed no system packages; copied existing development-VM fallback fonts into J118 scratch and supplied a scratch fonts.conf. Re-running under perf-run. Access local-paint uses the direct backend, preserving <1000 ms including screenshot; terminal and throughput keep the 300 ms profile. All four reviewed recovery before/after pairs are attached above. Cursor pixel diagnosis awaits candidate geometry evidence. No J117 spec edited.

J118 measured cursor finding: candidate1 prints PREDICTED_CURSOR_GEOMETRY {"sourceLeft":36.1875,"sourceTop":82.390625,"overlayLeft":36.59375,"overlayTop":82,"sourceOffsetLeft":18,"sourceOffsetTop":15}. TerminalTextOverlay.syncGeometry uses integer offsetLeft/offsetTop for the fractional rem padding. This is a product alignment defect. Repair preserves the renderer origin in host-local coordinates, undoing shared zoom, only during cached geometry setup; existing pixel oracle is retained and now also requires matching canvas origins.

Candidate1 confirms inventory-ordering, all 3 restart-liveness cases, both Settings round trips and held input pass. Held input: send 0.30 ms, keydown/sent/accepted all while held, screen paints after release. Perf-run independently passes this unchanged 16 ms budget after correcting the query-output fixture echo setup (that endpoint disables echo). Paired throughput on perf VM passes: off median 3.04 MB/s, on 2.97 MB/s, -2.37% vs unchanged -5% floor. Local access paint p99 upper bounds 146 ms setup / 114 ms sign-in, each vs unchanged 1000 ms. Terminal perf budgets remain visibly red: returning sign-in p99 5101.8 ms vs 5000; resume p99 1465.1 ms vs original 900. No threshold loosened.

J117 findings so far (dev-02 run `J117-base`, base `299b7ad30`: 23 failed / 11 passed, same as J113's list)

Spec	Cause (evidence)	Kind
`dead-session` ×7, `ended-strip` ×4	The test double closes every product socket with `1002 "unexpected test-double subscription"` (browser console, `WSCLOSE code=1002`). The product canvas subscribes to `canvas.layout` since the layout became server-owned (D312, #250, 2026-10-30), and `appwin-double.ts:46` serves that subscription only under `TRACER_DOUBLE_APPWIN=1`. So `data-connected` never reaches `true`.	double drifted from the product
`phone-gutter` ×2	The phone default is now "Edge to edge" (owner 2026-10-12, TASTE "Full width means full width; edge to edge peeks", `b57137758`), where `#panes` runs to the safe areas (left 0). The 16 px gutter is what the "Comfortable" phone size keeps. With that size selected the spec is green on dev-02 (`diag2`).	deliberate owner change; spec picks the size
`clusters-grid` ×7 of 10	The spec presses the pre-D222 chords (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+D, Ctrl+Alt+R, Ctrl+Alt+D). D222 (`d0aacfa1e`, 2026-10-10) moved them to Ctrl+Shift+E, Ctrl+Shift+Enter, Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Enter and says "Ctrl+Alt is never a default" (AltGr). With the D222 chords 7 of the 10 pass in `diag2`; 3 remain (`:170`, `:227`, plus the two px ones below).	deliberate owner change; spec migrated
`motion-audit`	Not `paintMesh`. The spec types "Mesh from the theme" into the palette; that row was renamed "Background: Mesh" on 2026-10-08 (`f4bff9583`), so the pick never happens (`data-bg` stays `none` after 6 s, measured). With `?bg=mesh` the mesh renders at once (`--mesh-image` is a `blob:` URL, WebGL2 available).	stale label in spec

Still open: clusters-grid :170 (closing the window it came from), :227 (split down in a group), :327 (title 39 vs 40 px), :363 (phone right edge 732 vs 394).

Queue note: ~/infraternal-ops/slots on dev-02 is 2 (the brief says 3) and the machine sat at load ~1 while 5 jobs queued; my diagnostic waited about 40 minutes for a slot each round.

Correction to my previous comment, clusters-grid row: at base 299b7ad30 9 tests failed in my run (:90 :163 :179 :194 :207 :220 :238 :320 :356; J113's count of 10 included :292, which passed here, so it is load-sensitive). With the D222 chords, 5 of the 9 pass (:90 :179 :194 :207 :238) and 4 remain: :163 (closing the window it came from), :220 (split down in a group), :320 (title 39 vs 40 px) and :356 (phone right edge 732 vs 394). I wrote "7 of 10" and listed the line numbers by the post-edit numbering; the counts above are the measured ones (J117-diag2).

Candidate2 on dev-02 runs 15 focused checks, cursor pixels at DPR 2 and 3, then all 53 scoped functional tests three consecutive times, stopping on the first failure. Queue position 6 at 07:07 IST. No pending run abandoned.

Candidate1 completed 41 passed / 12 failed in 10.2m. Nine were a strict-selector mistake in my animation wait (two auth-note surfaces); fixed to inspect both. Cursor failure is the measured fractional-origin product defect. One no-echo prediction case started during route recovery; now requires current-client prediction readiness. One setup-token expectation I changed was wrong for the actual onboarding flow; restored the original correct text. All remaining families, including 4 recovery baselines, passed. Candidate2 validates these repairs before the 3-run gate.

Compute01 first fast gate is still running static builds; filesystem was 17 GB free at 07:09 IST, below the 25 GB queue floor. No other job files/targets touched. Only J118 target: ~/worktrees/j118/target, to be deleted at finish. Final-head fast gate still required. Perf held-input check independently passed: send 0.60 ms <=16, all three held-state oracles true, paint in 1 frame after release. Perf evidence: ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/perf-sync.log.

J118 checkpoint head 3a08d1bf1 pushed. The artifact gate rejected the grown expected PNGs at their old paths (even though each is only 24–30 KB); its explicit intentional-source allowlist includes fixtures. Moved the same inspected PNG bytes into the spec snapshot directory’s fixtures/ subdirectory and used the normal Playwright screenshot name array. Raw captures still stay outside the checkout. No gate edit. Final-head fast run now passes: repository artifact gate: PASS (30 changed path(s), merge base 299b7ad30bdb) and is compiling. Log gate-final2.log on compute01.

Candidate2 focused run: 14 passed / 1 failed in 1.4m. All 12 access checks, safe access guidance and no-echo prediction passed. Pixel case failed before geometry measurement because its cursor cleared between separate injection/read calls while the route recovered. It now asserts the typed setup settled, awaits current-client readiness, and captures cursor geometry in the input task. Existing exact pixel and origin assertions remain. Candidate3 queued on dev-02 (position 3), same focused -> DPR2/3 -> full scoped suite x3 sequence. Log candidate3.log; source copied from this head. Still within 5-hour estimate; started 06:02 IST, now ~07:22 IST.

J118 browser run currently capacity-blocked on dev-02: build-slot --status shows slot 1 free, J118 first in queue (PID 3211216), but only free disk: 7G (floor 25G). Both queues were checked; browser placement remains dev-02 as this task explicitly requires. J118 has no Rust target there to reclaim. No other job files/targets touched. Its completion loop remains active; not ending on the pending run. Compute01 final-head fast gate is progressing through auth tests; its earlier disk shortage was resolved by deleting only J118 completed debug artifacts. Current source head remains pushed 3a08d1bf1.

J118 progress (08:05 IST): head remains 3a08d1bf1. Final fast gate continues on compute01 (own ~/worktrees/j118/target, log ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/gate-final2.log); no new gate failure so far. Candidate4 focused checks: 15 passed, then DPR2 cursor passed, DPR3 cursor pixel failed (<30 colour distance, received355), so no full-suite streak claimed. Origins match exactly at all densities. Investigating whether screenshot captures the confirmed cursor after the echo rather than the pending prediction; a fixture echo-delay diagnostic is queued on dev-02, preserving pixel thresholds.

Final production overlay CPU remeasurement on perf VM through perf-run: 2 passed (22.4s), first key0.50ms / remaining max0.30ms against unchanged <2ms budget. Evidence: perf VM ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/perf-final-cursor.log and perf-final-cursor/perf-run-20261103T033016-338724.{before,after}.txt (VM clock timestamp). Earlier terminal sign-in/resume perf failures remain recorded, not loosened. J117 files untouched. Next: finish cursor diagnosis, all53 scoped tests3x, final-head fast gate and report.

J118 cursor finding resolved at pushed head 6701dce46. Fractional renderer/overlay origins match (36.1875,82.390625). DPR3 screenshot scan paints the six bar pixels at348–353; round(116.1875*3) incorrectly began the oracle at349. The test now uses the containing raster pixel, preserving all three original colour thresholds (<30 inside, >80 outside). Font preparation precedes the prediction; delayed fixture echo and a live-prediction capture guard keep this a prediction screenshot. Focused checks passed at DPR1 (14.1s), DPR2 (13.7s), DPR3 (13.8s). Attached production screenshots inspected for the intended $ pixel ch state and cursor; independent visual review remains the orchestrator's job. First full53-test scoped pass is running, no streak claimed yet.

Fast gate on previous head completed: all rows pass except Rust test (3 existing review_revocation_r2 tests, elapsed at line144). Static sizes22475792 x86 /20492120 arm, deltas+57536/+38840 against gate baselines. A baseline probe was invalid (required CARGO_TARGET_DIR missing), so it is NOT baseline-failure proof. Final-head full gate is running with RUST_TEST_THREADS=2, keeping assertions unchanged. Logs: compute01 ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/gate-final{2,3}.log; dev02 .../candidate6.log.

J118 checkpoint at 08:47 IST: pushed cursor-fixture WIP after the first full pass finished 52 passed /1 failed (10.6m). The remaining failure was route catch-up between the readiness poll and key injection (error context shows Catching up, RTT unavailable), not a pixel mismatch. Readiness and backspace injection now share one browser task; candidate7 is queued on dev02, running DPR1/2/3 then all53 specs3x, stopping on any failure. No full green streak claimed.

Final fast gate on 6701dce46 continues on compute01, own ~/worktrees/j118/target. All four auth review_r2 cases pass in the full gate with RUST_TEST_THREADS=2; earlier baseline probe was invalid and is not baseline evidence. Need full gate on finalized cursor-fixture head after this run. Evidence .../candidate6.log (complete), candidate7.log (queued), gate-final3.log (running). Perf measurements and attached screenshots remain as in comment76299. No J117 files changed.

J117 progress (about 6 h in; estimate was 5 h, leash at 10 h)

Measured on dev-02 at the working tree (not yet split into commits or pushed in final form; WIP checkpoint 56fc4fe67 is on the branch):

Spec	Now	Cause
`phone-gutter`	6/6 green	spec selects the "Comfortable" phone size (default is "Edge to edge" since the owner's 2026-10-12 request)
`clusters-grid`	16/16 green	D222 chords; product bug in `bandTrack` (group rows floor `160px`, windows `10rem` = 176 px at the #283 base, so split-down rows overlapped); #283 column width; #212 icon takes title room; phone peek is not a framed window
`dead-session`	7/7 green	the double did not serve `canvas.layout` (D312), so the page never connected; product bug in `connection.ts`: "connected" was only reported on a stream attach, so a page with no terminal to attach stayed "· offline" after any drop (unit test fails without the fix)
`ended-strip`	4/4 green	restore goes through the double's new `/__mock/layout` (the page no longer keeps a layout in localStorage, D312); D291 refusal copy; two toast hosts make bare `.ui-toast` a strict-mode violation
`motion-audit`	past the mesh step	stale palette label (not `paintMesh`); product bug: the shared pill's `transition: transform 140ms` (ui.css, loaded after style.css) beat the sidebar toggle's reduced-motion `transition: none`; copy-feedback wait was a 160 ms margin (flake). Now at the reduced-motion shader still frame (0 frames counted in the audit, 1 in an isolated probe): instrumenting that.

Two things for the owner, not changed: (1) the sidebar toggle slides in 140 ms instead of the 260 ms style.css asks for, same cascade; (2) the window pill's connection icon (#212) leaves a 224 px half about 4 characters of title; the old spec wanted 5.

Next: finish the audit's last step, split into atomic commits (14 planned), rebase on current dev, scripts/verify fast, three consecutive green runs of the five spec files.

J118 finding / checkpoint, 09:13 IST: pushed 85424fa45. Candidate7 finished 49 passed /4failed (9.2m), with all focused DPR1/2/3 and the full-pass backspace pixel check green. Failures diagnosed:

Pending-glyph screenshots waited for fonts after typing and could capture confirmed output. Prepare fonts before input, delay fixture echo300ms, and inject only in the current ready browser task; keep visible-overlay and confirmation assertions.
Terminal helper still had Playwright's implicit5000ms readiness-poll timeout after the explicit5000ms performance budget moved. That still cut off usable terminals around5100ms. Functional connection readiness uses the existing30s fixture bound; perf/terminal.spec.ts still asserts the original5000ms threshold.
An interrupted login left unlockPending/pendingTransaction set across __mock/reset. Later open-terminal fixtures correctly got401 at auth/session and displayed sign-in. Reset now clears both fields with owner/cookie state, without altering product auth checks.
Added six production503-guidance captures to the existing terminal spec (1440,393,375px × dark/light) for review; no extra spec files.

Full fast gate on32373cfd6 passed VERIFY_EXIT=0, but final85424fa45 gate is now running oncompute01 (.../evidence/gate-head2.log, same own ~/worktrees/j118/target, threads2). Candidate8 ondev02 (.../candidate8.log) is queued: five focused affected checks, then all53 specs3x, stopping onfailure. No full green streak claimed. Perf thresholds unchanged; known perf sign-in/resume reds remain recorded. Final cleanup will remove only J118's Rust target.

J118 production error-state evidence at 85424fa45: all five affected focused checks pass (4.1m), including pending/confirmed capture, terminal sign-in, both transient-session checks and status guidance. Attached six 503-state screenshots from that scoped production-build test (1440×900,393×852,375×667 × dark/light). Inspected each: the unavailable card shows the intended safe server failure and Try again control, with no form/token/ceremony content. These are evidence for independent visual review, not an author approval of taste. All30 added/modified files on dev02 match the pushed candidate by blob hash. First full53-test pass is running; no streak yet. Full final-head gate is running oncompute01. No performance threshold changed.

J118 checkpoint,09:39 IST: fastgate on85424fa45 completed GREEN (VERIFY_EXIT=0, rawlog compute01 .../evidence/gate-head2.log). Candidate8 was stopped by SIGINT after its firstfullpass was alreadyred:3failed,1interrupted,25passed,24notrun; PW_EXIT130. Pixel screenshot returned after live prediction cleared; two other prediction checks hit implicit5s readiness / ephemeral cursor polling. No fullgreen streak claimed.

Pushed WIP frame-capture revision: one browser task checks current readiness, injects, asserts actual original overlay visibility/cursor and matching source/overlay origins/backings, then copies the original renderer+overlay bitmaps into a temporary canvas at their existing placement. Live transport confirmation continues underneath, and the copy is removed before checking the independently confirmed output. No invented glyph/cursor drawing, no change to pixel thresholds or prediction lifetime. This removes PNG-encoding time as an accidental functional speed gate. Fresh-client readiness waits use30s; perf thresholds stayunchanged. Also added ±0.5px left-edge checks to the six error-state captures per brief.

J118 final production-renderer evidence at pushed head 70f65b012f65c19b3be63883a1e9d44574ebb62a.

Attached: mobile/desktop × ink/paper pending and confirmed frames, plus DPR3 cursor capture. Pending frames preserve the actual renderer and prediction canvas bitmaps and placement before PNG encoding; no glyphs or cursor are drawn by the test. Confirmed output is independently checked on the live renderer after removing that capture. The existing mobile TEST DOUBLE badge overlaps the end of the fixture line; no badge styling changed. Visual quality remains for the orchestrator's independent review.

The final fast gate and three consecutive full scoped runs are still active. This comment records evidence, not a completed gate claim.

J118 checkpoint: pushed da6cb09d6. Final-head fast gate at 70f65b012 passed (VERIFY_EXIT=0; full log retained). Candidate9 passed two full scoped sweeps (53 passed (10.0m), 53 passed (10.1m)), then stopped in sweep3: perf-hud's injected 200ms script was attributed correctly, but the browser frame timestamp interval was183.3ms vs the functional >190ms assertion. No retry and no three-green claim.

The incident is correctly persisted/coalesced with pan activity, source script200ms and late heartbeat115ms. Frame timestamps and observer durations measure different intervals. All three remaining timing bounds (>190ms frame, >150ms script, >100ms heartbeat) now run unchanged in apps/tracer/perf/perf-hud.spec.ts on the perf VM through perf-run. The functional test retains persistence/coalescing/source/diagnostic assertions and shares the exact real stall scenario.

Candidate10 restarts the full53-test streak (three sweeps, no retries), log ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/candidate10.log on dev02. Full fast gate on the new head is running on compute01, gate-head4.log; exactly one Rust target will be recreated at ~/worktrees/j118/target (the previous finished target was already removed). Moved incident timing is also being measured on perfVM. Recovery before/after, six production503 states, and final prediction screenshots remain attached in comments76154/76341/76404.

J118 checkpoint, unchanged pushed head da6cb09d6: the moved incident bounds pass on the locked perf VM (1 passed (10.5s), PERF_EXIT=0): frame 200 ms >190, script 200 ms >150, heartbeat lateness 133 ms >100. Raw perf-incident.log and perf-run before/after receipts are retained locally and on the perf VM.

Candidate10 is now running on dev02: typecheck and focused functional incident check passed, then the first full 53-test sweep reached 45 passing checks, including predictions, all recovery baselines, renderer payloads and restart interruption paths. No complete three-run streak claimed yet. Its first launcher had omitted nix develop and stopped with Bun missing before any test; candidate10-runtime.log preserves that attempt. The corrected launch uses build-slot + nix develop. Active log remains ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/candidate10.log.

Current-head full fast gate on compute01 is progressing through Rust socket/auth tests, gate-head4.log. Exactly one J118 Rust target remains: ~/worktrees/j118/target on compute01, to remove after completion. Source is clean/pushed; final report will include the complete raw receipts, per-spec causes and unchanged red sign-in/resume perf budgets. Remaining work is the full fast receipt, three consecutive complete scoped sweeps, cleanup and final report.

J118 finding/checkpoint: candidate10 first full sweep passed53/53 (10.1m), but sweep2 stopped47/53 at another inherited5s default: the sign-in-card visibility wait after clearing state and reloading. Captured accessibility state was still loading (main only), not a wrong form; raw candidate10-stopped.log retained. No retry and no three-green claim.

Pushed 704a5c483: shared scenario readiness consistently uses the normal30s functional bound. Also finished moving performance sampling: functional coverage runs one returning sign-in and one reconnect, while the perf invocation explicitly retains all original10 sign-ins/20 reconnects. The5000ms sign-in,17ms prediction and RTT-derived900ms resume budgets are unchanged. Repeating p99 sampling on the shared functional VM was unnecessary after moving its assertions to perf.

New candidate11 is queued on dev02, full53 scoped checks ×3, no retries, ~/.cache/codex-scratch/j118/evidence/candidate11.log. The unchanged-product perf terminal scenario is being remeasured through perf-run to verify original sample counts/thresholds. The previous-head fast gate (gate-head4.log, da6cb09d6) is still completing static builds; it will be followed by a full fast gate on704a5c483 using the same sole compute01 target. No source checkout is being changed under the active gate. Estimated remaining validation/queue time about60–90min; no new product scope. Original5h estimate started06:02IST; the2× stop/report leash remains16:02IST.

J118 finding/checkpoint: pushed 51e73eb07. Candidate11 stopped20/53 at the resize predictor's no-transient-mute assertion: zero mispredictions, correct final host cursor, and recovered final ready state. This criterion depends on the fixed echo confirmation deadline. All20 focused nominal repetitions then passed (4.1m); these are diagnostic repetitions, not a three-full-sweep gate.

A controlled500ms host-echo delay deterministically reproduced echo-timeout with zero mispredictions and the correct26-character confirmed cursor. The state remained safety-muted until a fresh timely proof, as intended. Raw layout-diagnosis.log, layout-delay.log and candidate11-stopped.log are retained. The unchanged production mute deadline is2×RTT+64ms; it was not changed.

The original resize no-mute/no-misprediction assertions now run unchanged in perf/predictive-backspace.spec.ts on the perf VM through perf-run. The shared functional scenario deliberately uses late host echo, checks correct confirmed geometry/no mispredictions, then restores normal echo and checks recovery with a fresh proof. No production algorithm changed. Candidate12 is queued on dev02: typecheck, focused late-host recovery check, then all53 scoped tests ×3 with no retries/maxfail1 (candidate12.log). A full fast gate on the current head is queued on compute01 (gate-head5.log); the prior-head full gate atda6cb09d6 completed green and its log is collected. Exactly one Rust target remains, compute01 ~/worktrees/j118/target.

Final perf terminal remeasurement retainsn=10 returning sign-ins andn=20 reconnects. Unchanged budgets remain red:5001.7/5000ms sign-in and1481.6/900ms resume; predicted paint passes15.2/17ms. Raw log and perf-run receipts collected. The newly moved resize deadline case is being measured now. No final green-streak claim yet.

J118 checkpoint: pushed f18cb5bae. Full fast gate on51e73eb07 passed VERIFY_EXIT=0 (raw gate-head5.log collected). Candidate12 stopped51passed/1failed at transient-session-input initial attachment (20s, attach_count0), not at the delayed-echo check, which passed. Snapshot showed stale Settings7-window layout and unsaved-layout warnings. Account reset cleared the shared document but left old subscribed sockets able to deliver edits buffered by the latency proxy. Reset now terminates those transports before clearing layout state. A regression asserting retirement fails before the fix (0pass/1fail) and passes afterward (1pass/0fail,10assertions). No product algorithm or assertion threshold changed.

J117 finished: branch `j117-ui-regressions`, head `a284dce699c79c34aa3c775356be31e00dd276ca`

Base 7add12640 (current dev at the time; rebased once, clean). git merge-tree against dev a49fb0f3f is clean. 19 atomic commits, one cause each, no Rust changed.

Per-spec cause

Spec	Cause	Kind	Commit
`dead-session` ×7	The double served `canvas.layout` only under `TRACER_DOUBLE_APPWIN=1` and closed each product socket with `1002 "unexpected test-double subscription"` (browser close hook), so the page never connected. The product has subscribed since #243 (`f845c883d`, D312).	double drifted	`831695bc2`
`dead-session` ×3 (after a drop)	Product bug. `onConnectionChange(true)` only fired when a stream attached, so a page with no terminal to attach (every window ended) stayed "· offline" for good after any socket drop, though the route was back. Timeline: new socket 72 ms after the drop, `connected=false` for 20 s. `connection-link-report.test.ts` fails without the fix.	product	`60d5582c0`
`ended-strip` ×4	The page no longer keeps a layout in localStorage (server-owned, D312), so the spec's rewrite threw. The double gets `/__mock/layout` and the spec writes the layout before the app loads.	owner change D312	`da21136f1`, `c2185c906`
`ended-strip` refusal	Copy for "unavailable" is the D291 sentence (pinned by `open-refusal.test.ts`); and a page has two toast hosts, so bare `.ui-toast` is a strict-mode violation.	owner change D291	`2422c6410`, `499c706c0`
`clusters-grid` ×10	D222 chords (the spec still pressed D212's), #283 column width, #212 connection icon takes title room, the owner's phone peek, and a product bug: group row tracks floored at `160px` while windows are `10rem` (176 px at the #283 base), so split-down rows overlapped by 4 and 16 px.	mixed	`f5ad772ab`, `f32115e3d` (product), `f809c5912`, `576657e23`, `0c65c3786`, `f354e4be7` (waits)
`phone-gutter` ×2	Default phone size is "Edge to edge" since the owner's 2026-10-12 request (`#panes` left 0); the 16 px gutter is what "Comfortable" keeps. The spec selects that size.	owner change	`5f028eeb9`
`motion-audit`	Not `paintMesh`. The spec typed "Mesh from the theme"; the row was renamed "Background: Mesh" on 2026-10-08, so the pick never happened (`data-bg` stayed `none`; with `?bg=mesh` the mesh renders a `blob:` URL). Behind it, in order: product bug (shared pill's `transition: transform 140ms` in ui.css beats the toggle's reduced-motion `transition: none`), two fixed waits inside the 900 ms copy confirmation, the shader probe (a page-level route did not intercept later documents' workers; `context.route` does), and 5 s waits for the sign-in card/shader at 4x CPU.	stale spec + product	`9cae239ef`, `070b14c27` (product), `b64857971`, `5a1a220a4`, `f44100efd`, `a284dce69`

Honest notes

The runs were not all green on the way: the host is shared. One run of head f354e4be7 hit load averages of 27 to 30 (other jobs' builds) and lost 5 tests to page-load timeouts (52 min instead of 8). Another lost one ended-strip test to a real race in my restore (c2185c906 fixes it) and one audit step to a 5 s wait (a284dce69). The final three runs ran at load 1 to 3.
motion-audit is the timing-heaviest spec (4x CPU, many sub-second windows). I made the waits event-driven where they guarded a window, but it will stay sensitive on a loaded host; its speed claims belong on the perf VM.
No screenshots attached. The visible product fix (group rows no longer overlap) is verified by geometry in clusters-grid (no two windows overlap), not by a capture. Say if you want a before/after.

For kayg (not changed)

Sidebar toggle motion. ui.css loads after style.css, so the pill's 140 ms transform transition beats the toggle's own 260 ms slide in normal motion too. I only fixed the reduced-motion case.
Narrow half title. The #212 connection icon leaves a 224 px half about four characters of the host (34 px at the standard size); the old spec wanted five. If five matters, the icon should give way in narrow halves.
Queue. ~/infraternal-ops/slots on dev-02 is 2 (the brief says 3); my diagnostics waited 30 to 40 minutes per round while the VM sat at load 1.

## J117 finished: branch `j117-ui-regressions`, head `a284dce699c79c34aa3c775356be31e00dd276ca` Base `7add12640` (current dev at the time; rebased once, clean). `git merge-tree` against dev `a49fb0f3f` is clean. 19 atomic commits, one cause each, no Rust changed. ### Per-spec cause | Spec | Cause | Kind | Commit | |---|---|---|---| | `dead-session` ×7 | The double served `canvas.layout` only under `TRACER_DOUBLE_APPWIN=1` and closed each product socket with `1002 "unexpected test-double subscription"` (browser close hook), so the page never connected. The product has subscribed since #243 (`f845c883d`, D312). | double drifted | `831695bc2` | | `dead-session` ×3 (after a drop) | **Product bug.** `onConnectionChange(true)` only fired when a stream attached, so a page with no terminal to attach (every window ended) stayed "· offline" for good after any socket drop, though the route was back. Timeline: new socket 72 ms after the drop, `connected=false` for 20 s. `connection-link-report.test.ts` fails without the fix. | product | `60d5582c0` | | `ended-strip` ×4 | The page no longer keeps a layout in localStorage (server-owned, D312), so the spec's rewrite threw. The double gets `/__mock/layout` and the spec writes the layout before the app loads. | owner change D312 | `da21136f1`, `c2185c906` | | `ended-strip` refusal | Copy for "unavailable" is the D291 sentence (pinned by `open-refusal.test.ts`); and a page has two toast hosts, so bare `.ui-toast` is a strict-mode violation. | owner change D291 | `2422c6410`, `499c706c0` | | `clusters-grid` ×10 | D222 chords (the spec still pressed D212's), #283 column width, #212 connection icon takes title room, the owner's phone peek, and **a product bug**: group row tracks floored at `160px` while windows are `10rem` (176 px at the #283 base), so split-down rows overlapped by 4 and 16 px. | mixed | `f5ad772ab`, `f32115e3d` (product), `f809c5912`, `576657e23`, `0c65c3786`, `f354e4be7` (waits) | | `phone-gutter` ×2 | Default phone size is "Edge to edge" since the owner's 2026-10-12 request (`#panes` left 0); the 16 px gutter is what "Comfortable" keeps. The spec selects that size. | owner change | `5f028eeb9` | | `motion-audit` | **Not `paintMesh`.** The spec typed "Mesh from the theme"; the row was renamed "Background: Mesh" on 2026-10-08, so the pick never happened (`data-bg` stayed `none`; with `?bg=mesh` the mesh renders a `blob:` URL). Behind it, in order: **product bug** (shared pill's `transition: transform 140ms` in ui.css beats the toggle's reduced-motion `transition: none`), two fixed waits inside the 900 ms copy confirmation, the shader probe (a page-level route did not intercept later documents' workers; `context.route` does), and 5 s waits for the sign-in card/shader at 4x CPU. | stale spec + product | `9cae239ef`, `070b14c27` (product), `b64857971`, `5a1a220a4`, `f44100efd`, `a284dce69` | ### Gate: `scripts/verify fast` on compute01 at `a284dce69` (log `~/worktrees/J117-gate.log`) ``` head a284dce699c79c34aa3c775356be31e00dd276ca +---------------------------+--------------+ | Rust gate | Result | +---------------------------+--------------+ | fmt | PASS | | VT native fmt | PASS | | CLI plugin compile-out | PASS | | clippy | PASS | | SSH runtime test helper | PASS | | real-binary fixture paths | PASS | | test | PASS | | SSH inode reuse fixture | PASS | | shim process-per-user | PASS | | cargo-deny | PASS | | gate architecture | PASS | | static builds | PASS | +---------------------------+--------------+ (static builds: 8s) PT_INTERP: absent; size: 22475792 bytes; baseline 22418256; delta +57536 bytes (report only, D243 amended 2026-11-01) PT_INTERP: absent; size: 20492120 bytes; baseline 20453280; delta +38840 bytes (report only, D243 amended 2026-11-01) 48 pass 0 fail 77248 expect() calls Ran 48 tests across 12 files.

The gate ran the new `connection-link-report.test.ts` and `bun run check`. ### The five spec files, three consecutive runs at `a284dce69` on dev-02 (`~/worktrees/J117-three.log`) ``` === RUN 1 08:09:16 head a284dce69 34 passed (7.1m) === RUN 2 08:16:21 head a284dce69 34 passed (7.0m) === RUN 3 08:23:20 head a284dce69 34 passed (7.0m) ``` Baseline at `299b7ad30`: 23 failed, 11 passed (`J117-base.log`). ### Honest notes - The runs were not all green on the way: the host is shared.

J118c takeover (Claude Sonnet 5.5)

State found: the previous job's branch j118-tracer-failures head f18cb5bae (21 commits on 299b7ad30), no processes left running, the compute01 worktree ~/worktrees/j118 holds uncommitted edits that are byte-identical to f18cb5bae (nothing lost). Last run, candidate13, stopped at the first test: access-states.spec.ts:92 waited the 5 s default for .auth-message:not(:empty) (another inherited 5 s wait; that spec is where the earlier sweeps also broke). No three-green streak exists yet.

Rebased onto origin/dev 7c082bddf as branch j118c-tracer-failures, now 2541938d2. One commit dropped, 0e1af5066 (serve account layouts in ordinary terminal fixtures): J117's 831695bc2 (appwinLayoutReset, /__mock/layout) already does that. Its follow-up f18cb5bae (retire layout sockets before reset) is folded into J117's appwinLayoutReset, with the regression assertion kept.

Plan (about 3 h): run the 13 scoped spec files on compute01 (3 free slots), fix each remaining failure at its one cause, then run all of them 3 times in a row, then verify fast. Scoped files: access-states, recovery-ui-hold, terminal, restart-liveness-review, transient-session-input, transient-session-review, synchronized-output-input, predictive-backspace, predictive-echo, settings-query-roundtrip, perf-hud, renderer-regression, inventory-ordering-review. Before counts for comparison: the previous job's original baseline on 299b7ad30 was 31 failed / 27 passed.

J118c progress (branch `j118c-tracer-failures`, head `67ddee76b`)

Findings, one cause each:

perf-hud pan stall: the evidence dir is named after the process id, so the Playwright config (which starts the server) and a worker resolved different directories; the spec polled for the incident file in a directory that did not exist. ea13eeced exports INFRATERNAL_EVIDENCE_DIR from the config. Failed on both VMs before, passes after.
terminal.spec first test, three separate races found by 15x repeats on compute01: (1) pending prediction "ok" lives one RTT (300 ms) and expect.poll missed it (294a3f6d6, read in the input's own task); (2) probe refused to start because the attachment was unconfirmed at the click (terminal-scenario waits on that state first); (3) scenario takes 72–96 s against the 90 s default, "Request context disposed" (own 240 s timeout).
recovery-ui-hold baselines: pass on dev-02, fail on compute01 (18% of pixels). compute01 has 8 fonts, dev-02 has 20. Environment, not product; baselines untouched, final streak runs on dev-02.
Not explained: one socket hang up on POST /__mock/reset (recovery-ui-hold:35) and one probe stall (5/20 echoes, p95 5.7 s) in dev-02 sweeps; neither reproduced in 8 and 15 repeats on compute01 respectively.

Counts: previous job baseline on 299b7ad30: 31 failed / 27 passed. Rebased head on compute01: 48 passed / 5 failed. dev-02 sweep with ea13eeced: 53/53, then 47 passed + 1 failed (terminal, now explained). The 3-in-a-row run at 67ddee76b is in progress on dev-02; verify fast follows.

J118c stopping at ~2x estimate: head `67ddee76b`, not done

No three-in-a-row streak yet. Dev-02 results at 67ddee76b (13 scoped files, 53 tests): sweep 1 53/53 (10.0 m); sweep 2 stopped at test 19, predictive-backspace.spec.ts:89 ("a backspace typed in the frame a backspace echo is written", result.report undefined: the in-page 2 s wait for the hook never saw the second erase). That test passed 25/25 in isolation on compute01 (5.2 m), so it is load- or order-dependent; I have no cause for it and did not change it. Earlier dev-02 sweep at ea13eeced: 53/53 once, then a terminal.spec failure that is now fixed (three causes, listed in the previous comment).

Still unexplained and unreproduced: socket hang up on POST /__mock/reset; probe stall of 5.7 s; this backspace hook miss. All three look like the same family (a multi-second stall of the test double or latency proxy under dev-02 load), but I have no evidence for that, only the pattern.

Not run: scripts/verify fast at 67ddee76b (only test files changed since the previous green gate on f18cb5bae; no Rust). compute01 J118 Rust target deleted. Needs the orchestrator's call: continue hunting the stall with a stall-detecting capture on the double (new tooling, so I stopped to ask), or accept the sweeps as 1-of-3 with the causes listed.
