test(mcp): force the reduced form when checking array item schemas

Use a large nested property with a 1 KiB budget so the schema is
reduced while its shallow array property remains, and assert the
presentation and that property before checking for missing items.

-
-# REA analysis optimization
-
-Find a concrete source of unnecessary work, change it at its owner, and verify
-equivalent completed investigations. A useful outcome can also be a measured
-decision to leave an implementation alone.
-
-Follow the checkout's [performance priorities](../../../AGENTS.md#performance),
-[tool design](../../../docs/tool-design.md), and
-[testing guide](../../../docs/testing.md). This skill supplies an optimization
-workflow, not additional permission to execute targets, publish, or merge.
-Use the current contracts, provider prerequisites, and user authorization.
-
-Read [the Kuna case study](references/kuna-case-study.md) when selecting a
-reuse strategy or interpreting a benchmark. Its pinned observations illustrate
-tradeoffs; they are not current-provider guarantees or universal speedups.
-
-## Pin the question and the correctness oracle
-
-Describe the analyst's completed task, including the facts and relationships
-needed to answer it, requested detail, source access, and meaningful unknowns.
-Choose a representative real artifact and a small or empty case. Record the
-baseline revision, target digest, engine identity, options, host, and entrypoint.
-Use a separate checkout for changes without disturbing other work.
-
-Establish an oracle independent of the changed implementation: source-built
-fixture expectations, independently mapped file bytes, or a native producer
-paired with checks of its interpretation. Comparing two wrappers around the
-same faulty decoder does not establish correctness. Preserve address widths,
-same-address alternatives, unresolved endpoints, coverage, and source linkage.
-An empty result proves absence only within the actually examined scope.
-
-## Locate the earliest unnecessary work
-
-Trace one public CLI or MCP task through shared application code to its producer.
-Measure relevant phases: admission and identity checks, native analysis,
-decoding, lookup, projection, serialization, Evidence retention, and cleanup.
-Include catalog discovery and extra calls when they affect the completed task.
-
-Use the evidence to choose the smallest structural correction:
-
-| Observed cost                     | Candidate correction                                       | Condition to establish                                                               |
-| --------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
-| Repeated scans of validated facts | Reuse existing order or lookup structure                   | The owner establishes ordering and identity; every matching alternative survives     |
-| Repeated equivalent engine work   | Share a validated result or in-flight producer             | Inputs, freshness, lifetime, and per-caller outcomes remain explicit                 |
-| Full reports for selected facts   | Push selection or projection to the earliest capable owner | Required facts and evidence remain reachable; examined coverage is reported          |
-| Large temporary transport buffers | Decode incrementally or use bounded source reads           | Validate the whole admitted document; retained facts and copies still consume memory |
-| Many repeated homogeneous reads   | Share admission, decoding, or batch work                   | Preserve item identity, order where required, and individual failures                |
-
-Do not introduce an index, generic cache, batch endpoint, or orchestration layer
-without identifying the work it removes and its maintenance/resource cost.
-Projection after materializing a full report may reduce output while leaving
-analysis time and peak memory unchanged. Fix missing or incorrect facts before
-benchmarking an alternative composition against a better-covered workflow.
-
-## Keep one interpretation and a defined reuse lifetime
-
-Let the producer boundary validate and normalize facts once. Consumers query
-that representation through the shared CLI/MCP implementation; adapters should
-not rebuild relationships or independently reinterpret raw reports. Keep lookup
-identity separate from display formatting. Reuse contracts when their intent
-matches, honoring requested detail and complete Evidence access.
-
-For every cache or shared producer, state its key, owner, invalidation, retained
-size, and lifetime. Account for result-affecting target bytes, engine contents,
-analysis options, architecture/load mapping, and parser/schema versions where
-they affect reuse. Validate live state before calling a cached observation
-current. Cache a refusal only when it is deterministic for that validated key;
-malformed, partial, transient, or cancelled attempts need explicit retry policy.
-
-One cancelled waiter must not invalidate a successful peer. Preserve producer
-failure context and each caller's cancellation reason. Retain ownership and
-capacity charges until shared work and cleanup settle; preserve completed
-observations when cleanup fails. Exercise invalidation, concurrent consumers,
-last-waiter cancellation, close, and cleanup retry when those paths change.
-
-Bound the process family and retained state, not just a parent heap or worker
-count. Account for decoding and serialization expansion before allocation.
-Choose CPU, memory, concurrency, and disk limits from the host and workload;
-stop before OOM and verify owned cleanup. A guard-stopped task is incomplete.
-Do not replace a transport buffer cap with an unbounded retained inventory or
-hide partial results behind a success status.
-
-## Compare completed tasks and limit the claim
-
-Run the affected real public workflow before and after with equivalent inputs,
-results, coverage, and Evidence semantics. Include small inputs so setup costs
-and regressions are visible. Distinguish fresh sessions, warm runtime caches,
-and OS file caches. Alternate or repeat runs when variance affects the decision.
-Choose meaningful boundary regressions for cases the actual engine cannot
-reliably reproduce; a fake engine does not qualify a real provider.
-
-Report task outcome, relevant phase timings, total elapsed and CPU time, peak
-process-family memory and its accounting method, resource stops, and cleanup.
-Check the payload exit status as well as the profiler's. Keep failed attempts
-and identify unmeasured costs; a passing retry does not explain a failure.
-
-For token claims, count schemas/discovery, arguments, replies, retries, and
-continuations needed to finish the task. Label tokenizer estimates separately
-from actual model usage and record the client/catalog behavior. Smaller JSON
-alone establishes neither fewer model tokens nor better investigation quality.
-Do not claim a complex-software advantage without completed representative
-investigations and comparable correctness/coverage.
-
-Finish with the bottleneck, owning change, preserved semantics, executed
-checks, before/after measurements, and remaining limits. Keep any integration
-record current with its tested revision and distinguish merged production work
-from experiment-only code. Stop when the demonstrated bottleneck is resolved
-or further benefit remains speculative.

-# Kuna: reuse before adding machinery
-
-Read this reference for concrete examples of the skill's decisions. The records
-below concern static Linux analysis with caller-supplied Kuna. They do not
-establish parity with another provider or a general advantage for Code Mode,
-atomic tools, or any particular orchestration design.
-
-## Exact-address lookup: a measured, narrow improvement
-
-[PR #4695](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4695) reused the validated string
-inventory's numeric address order. Previously, each `list_strings(address)`
-filtered all cached facts. The owner now performs a binary lower-bound lookup
-and returns every encoding at that address: O(log n + matches), without a
-second retained lookup index.
-
-The owning implementation is
-[`KunaStringInventory.ts`](../../../../src/kuna/KunaStringInventory.ts), consumed
-by [`KunaStringQueries.ts`](../../../../src/kuna/KunaStringQueries.ts). Inspect
-their current versions before adapting the example. Numeric u64 addresses,
-same-address encodings, duplicate rejection, source digests, caller selection,
-and the existing session lifetime were part of the contract. Full listings and
-literal/regex searches kept their semantics. An attempted removal of the
-duplicate-detection set was dropped: no stable memory benefit was established,
-and it delayed malformed-input rejection.
-
-### Recorded workload and results
-
-The benchmark used unmodified Kuna 1.833 and LLVM 16 on Linux x86-64, with
-602,544 string facts. Baseline was `be0b2d138`; the final feature was
-`5f564962da0e1b17f00a68a74a312539f0209a01`, subsequently integrated in
-`c6b62754b095a134d6d67877508fa34311a2eda2`. These are historical observations,
-not a benchmark of every subsequent main revision.
-
-The same production stdio MCP task discovered the catalog, opened the binary,
-made one cold selected read and 28 warm exact reads, checked retained Evidence,
-and closed the session. Five selected addresses and two absent selectors were
-read four times. A native filtered scan selected the strings; an independent
-ELF load-header mapping checked the source bytes and terminators. Returned
-facts, source linkage, target digests, and cleanup were checked.
-
-Three alternating fresh sessions per implementation used one CPU, a 4 GiB
-process-family hard limit, a 3 GiB early stop, and no swap. OS file caches were
-warm. Whole-harness costs include the independent native oracle, hashing,
-catalog/client work, and correctness checks.
-
-| Median                                   |     Before |      After |
-| ---------------------------------------- | ---------: | ---------: |
-| 28 warm exact MCP reads                  |   495.2 ms |    90.8 ms |
-| Cold selected MCP read                   |    11.30 s |    11.01 s |
-| Whole harness elapsed                    |    28.24 s |    27.43 s |
-| Whole process-family CPU                 |    27.71 s |    26.89 s |
-| Kernel family peak, including file cache | 2237.6 MiB | 2240.6 MiB |
-
-Warm totals ranged from 491.7–544.3 ms before to 84.8–99.5 ms after: about
-5.5 times faster at this phase. Cold/whole-task timing and memory overlapped;
-no stable improvement in those costs was established. One small SQLite pair
-(7,985 facts) measured 20 warm reads at 88.6 → 80.5 ms and the whole harness at
-13.68 → 13.94 s. The large-inventory lookup benefit does not generalize to a
-whole-task speedup on small inputs.
-
-Catalog hashes, call counts, and normalized facts were unchanged. A
-`cl100k_base` estimate over one pass of raw catalog JSON, arguments, and replies
-was about 846,000 tokens in both lanes, with about 802,562 from the catalog.
-This was transport serialization, not rendered model context or actual usage;
-client discovery, prompts, replay, and protocol framing were unmeasured.
-**No token reduction or improved agent investigation outcome was established.**
-
-Pinned target SHA-256:
-`f62d254b7f2bf42df8c8b07d46ee3bb4c2cafeca436b2e6bc6ccbe4581f58f40`.
-Pinned engine SHA-256:
-`d858918b0766435cd96b999a77f2d5a31a0cc4f07256421c883b5b9dc4dd58e4`.
-All six normalized-result sequence digests were
-`4d2f90269da8568984090b20274163c4a7c2a0538aab63530bd2fe44840a0bba`.
-Selected byte agreement does not prove native discovery completeness; missing
-strings and relationships can remain unknown.
-
-## Other transferable changes and their limits
-
-- [Cached string inventory and search, #4095](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4095):
-  share validated facts across queries in a defined session. Audit key inputs
-  and lifetime before extending reuse across targets or engine revisions.
-- [Shared single-function work, #4045](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4045)
-  and [repeat-request reuse, #4169](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4169):
-  avoid duplicate native work while retaining per-caller cancellation and
-  cleanup ownership. A query count alone cannot reveal duplicate subprocesses.
-- [Streamed strings, #4318](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4318)
-  and [streamed call graph, #4329](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4329):
-  remove fixed aggregate transport-buffer failures through incremental parsing.
-  Streaming transport does not bound every retained object or final reply.
-  These links establish changes; no numerical speedup is asserted here.
-
-Typed reference facts, native string-query projection, and shared native byte
-reads remained experimental at the 2026-10-17 checkpoint
-`65f2f9a22bc892f61d2b00f9a4611124f57d4bff` on
-`experiment/atomic-codemode-20261016`. Some experiments used a patched native
-engine. Check current integration and bring-your-own engine capabilities before
-proposing them; a working experiment is not a stock-provider guarantee.
-
-## Applying the reasoning elsewhere
-
-For another provider or format, inspect its actual representation and native
-capabilities before borrowing the implementation. Existing numeric ordering
-may support range reads; an on-disk native query may avoid materializing an
-inventory; an immutable parse may support several views. Measure the relevant
-alternative rather than requiring every provider to use Kuna's cached array.
-
-For live observations, immutable artifact caching rules are insufficient:
-validate the process/session identity and freshness required by the caller.
-For compact replies, preserve access to source Evidence and report examined
-coverage; projection must not silently turn an unresolved edge into no edge.
-For batching, test mixed successes and failures and measure the entire task,
-including discovery, extra calls, native work, and serialization.

-
-Use `address_to_file_offset` to anchor one observed address to original file
-bytes. A mapping for the first address does not establish a contiguous mapping
-for an entire table, and loader fixups can make analysis bytes differ from source
-bytes. Keep source ranges and analysis-memory observations separate.
-
-A pointer table can refer to writable slots populated by a constructor rather
-than directly to immutable resources. An uninitialized block or an observed zero
-does not establish the slot's later runtime value. Follow `xrefs` and the relevant
-writer's assembly or pseudocode; distinguish recorded assignments from inferred
-execution order. Do not replace unreadable bytes with zeros or conclude that a

 Keep proof of ownership separate from validity, editability, and readiness. Malformed owned data may still be safely removable. Unresolved identity or applicability must remain unknown rather than be treated as absent, foreign, or aligned.
 
-For lifecycle changes, follow [ownership and completion invariants](docs/tool-design.md#own-the-lifecycle) and select the applicable [lifecycle regressions](docs/testing.md#lifecycle-regressions). Include late handshakes, cancellation during final cleanup, mixed child outcomes, and cleanup retry where those stages exist; active-execution cancellation alone does not cover finalization.
-
 Assess brittleness in touched code during implementation, debugging, review, and maintenance. Fix the producing representation or ownership rule before adding downstream repairs. Normalize once at the owning boundary using format-aware parsers. Remove superseded representations, aliases, wrappers, and redundant tests after verifying affected consumers. Introduce abstractions only when they remove observed complexity.
 
 When fixing a bug, inspect the producing boundary and affected consumers for duplicated interpretation or unclear ownership. Complete any directly related refactor in the same change and remove superseded code. Passing regression tests alone does not establish that the brittleness is resolved. If related cleanup remains, explain what remains and why.

 # Changelog
 
-## [6.7.0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/compare/rea-agents-6.6.0...rea-agents-6.7.0) (2026-10-18)
-
-### Highlights
-
-- Client configuration edits follow the duplicate-member semantics used by MCP clients.
-
-### Changes
-
-- Includes the [6.6.0 changes and migration notes](https://github.com/morluto/rea/releases/tag/rea-agents-6.6.0). That version was tagged but was not published to npm.
-
-### Fixes
-
-- **Client configuration:** Setup edits the last repeated JSON/JSONC member, matching the value clients actually read. Setup and uninstall refuse a removal that would reactivate a shadowed duplicate, preserving the original configuration. ([#4957](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4957), [morluto/rea#4952](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4952)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @xu91102.

-## [6.6.0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/compare/rea-agents-6.5.0...rea-agents-6.6.0) (2026-10-18)
-
-### Highlights
-
-- Add Kuna as a caller-supplied static-analysis provider.
-- Query selected JavaScript facts and multiple APK locale tables without repeating the underlying analysis.
-- Extend Ghidra analysis to Windows ARM PE targets and explicit raw m68k images.
-- Preserve completed Evidence, cancellation reasons and retryable cleanup across provider and CLI finalization.
-
-### Changes
-
-- **Kuna analysis:** Use a caller-installed Kuna for procedure listings, pseudocode, assembly, call relationships, exact-address xrefs and cached string searches. Project exports retain source spans and digests; repeated requests reuse completed work. Recorded real-provider coverage uses Kuna 1.833 on Linux; Windows, PE and universal Mach-O are unsupported. See [the provider guide](docs/kuna-provider.md). ([#3832](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3832), [#3854](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3854), [#4071](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4071), [#4095](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4095)). Thanks @gensokyo-dev, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Retained JavaScript facts:** Query exact application paths, selected properties and filtered module references through `inspect_analysis_view`, with paging and complete row Evidence. These views reuse completed analysis and preserve source selection and unknown coverage. ([#4265](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4265), [morluto/rea#4190](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4190), [#4097](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4097), [morluto/rea#4092](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4092)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **APK locale tables:** Request several resource locales in one decode with repeatable CLI `--locales` or MCP `locales`. Each table reports its status and coverage; existing single-locale fields remain available. ([#4804](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4804), [morluto/rea#4777](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4777)). Thanks @abhay-2108, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Windows ARM binaries:** Ghidra admits ARMNT/Thumb-2 and ARM64 PE applications and DLLs on the Windows x64 host lane. Recorded Ghidra 12.1.4 verification uses `WindowsResourceReference` disabled and raised startup budgets; default-analyzer completion, ARM64EC/ARM64X and Windows-on-Arm hosts remain unverified or unsupported. See [the exact scope](docs/windows-ghidra-p0.md#native-authority-and-target-identity). ([#3965](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3965), [morluto/rea#2186](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2186)). Thanks @N0zoM1z0, @WestLabsAI.
-- **Raw m68k images:** Analyze explicitly selected big-endian m68k raw binaries using Ghidra’s fixed 68000 profile and a caller-supplied aligned entry. Real CLI/MCP verification used Ghidra 12.1.4 on macOS arm64; Linux is unverified and Windows P0 does not admit m68k. See [mapping requirements](docs/raw-binary.md). ([#4018](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4018)). Thanks @icedac.
-- **JADX deadlines:** Set `REA_JADX_OPERATION_TIMEOUT_MS` to extend APK loading and upstream operation deadlines together. Doctor reports the effective value and setup forwards an explicit selection. ([#4466](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4466), [morluto/rea#3918](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3918)). Thanks @jaychou813, @SandstromPL.
-- **Electron window options:** Resolve stable local constant `BrowserWindow` options while retaining source provenance. Relevant writes and escapes keep the result unknown. ([#4400](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4400), [morluto/rea#4366](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4366)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Language editions:** Add the Greek website edition and Malayalam documentation, with Korean typography and translation corrections across the site. ([#3520](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3520), [#4792](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4792), [#3821](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3821), [morluto/rea#3820](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3820), [#3799](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3799), [morluto/rea#3798](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3798), [#4344](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4344), [#3856](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3856), [#4166](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4166)).

-### Fixes
-
-- **Cancellation and cleanup:** Keep completed observations, exact cancellation reasons and the original physical failure through finalization. Failed cleanup retains its process or file owner for retry; recovered resources disappear from pending-cleanup reports without replacing the original error. ([#4238](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4238), [morluto/rea#4232](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4232), [#4274](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4274), [morluto/rea#3923](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3923), [3e82366](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3e8236639abffa39deb5d5e939ec8baf6aaf3ca3), [16924e2](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/16924e275e939d0543ba01493324959a9e1d731c), [bbfe6ed](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/bbfe6edd60290f9bfbec68c8a0bcf605d8bbf5b3), [1f23e97](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/1f23e977b50301e91f02a4a17c9f8d48bb7b60f3), [08fbeb8](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/08fbeb8bdab27118b6c57039aef7c0fa8b6463bc)). Thanks @coygeek.
-- **Provider startup:** Join prerequisite probes and in-flight readiness work before shutdown, preserve typed timeout and JVM-memory failures, and retain startup diagnostics through cleanup. Ghidra recognizes keg-only Homebrew JDKs and names the setting responsible for a startup timeout. ([376eeca](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/376eeca770820b31f7f8d4c5fcc397315621643e), [ceeff5a](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/ceeff5a41788e47e5aee96a4baf191a6ce7fde4b), [3ad1032](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3ad1032b11edea2dcb054e78f951cc43159ae83d), [964decd](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/964decd989acfa84c4bfc3295362c4c46877fc20), [3fa972a](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3fa972af7c7cb6cf014ffc426bdf7130dc6f2fd2), [#4557](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4557), [morluto/rea#4556](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4556), [#4590](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4590), [morluto/rea#4241](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4241)). Thanks @DanielCvz1, @J0UH, @Rinkia, @RishTheFish21, @vadlachary2002.
-- **Client configuration:** Preserve the selected launcher, destination file, caller timeout choices and unresolved configuration evidence. Setup/uninstall recovery stays bound to the exact published file, keeps current verified backups, and transfers failed cleanup ownership for retry. ([d0253c9](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d0253c99d65afbbd12732a2fdaf711640574e17f), [7e4eed9](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/7e4eed9dd48485b6a7100300aa98401811c2deb9), [2fb5e20](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/2fb5e204a35723f6f843d56ca47b0db94d8fcc44), [8235210](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/823521085a28f825e7fee1929d852d420042d1f7), [d818c3d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d818c3d2639d3115edb8a5269a754101aea6c3bd), [19329e4](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/19329e43bb38ca9d64512d801b25abcb188d2512), [dadf909](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/dadf909dce2e8b3d055541de69b4118d21276316), [333e0ab](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/333e0ab0dfc126a9915907d5079ed6195190e38e), [c15c206](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c15c2062ad815cc9a3222ccfaeb7ef53cacd8b72)). Thanks @Adolanium.
-- **Configuration formats:** Read signed 64-bit TOML integers without rounding, handle large TOML documents without argument-spread failures, preserve JSONC trivia and Hermes YAML scalar text, and reject NUL bytes in registration environment values. ([#4937](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4937), [morluto/rea#4917](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4917), [c43bc0b](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c43bc0bf66a4e245a0cafa40def0d0207bcbd73c), [4fd28fc](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/4fd28fc9e0c4f8358147af38c72ab9e814f52d61), [#3568](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3568), [#4335](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4335)). Thanks @alfredo1491, @gensokyo-dev, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0, @ShuaixinHuang, @xu91102.
-- **Claude Code configuration:** Setup, doctor and uninstall now accept only the strict JSON format Claude Code reads, including a leading UTF-8 BOM. Comments and trailing commas are refused before backup or writing; clients that support JSONC retain their existing behavior. ([#4944](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4944), [morluto/rea#4940](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4940)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @xu91102.
-- **CLI output and dispatch:** Accept `--flag=value` and spaced global output values, keep array positions in filtered JSON, validate integer tokens before coercion, and exit quietly when the output reader closes. Cancellation remains effective through command finalization; app bundles and static native inspections select the intended workflow. ([#3811](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3811), [#4823](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4823), [2ae4e16](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/2ae4e1608f290c95ff7cff28c4d16a79b301d03d), [8d82579](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/8d8257928bbe8d43fedffc4db5fca26c8108820f), [#3781](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3781), [279c590](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/279c590ef6bb737d4a48ea696a0ae5eb30010b3d), [#3511](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3511), [morluto/rea#3321](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3321), [f31b231](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/f31b231a92a61be6bd1800b16be0b3210ae82944)). Thanks @arjunprabhulal, @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @ShuaixinHuang, @Sriram-PR, @Tapraj-Pathak.
-- **Updates:** Route `--update` through the verified updater and bound retained package-manager diagnostics. ([4f7b5fb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/4f7b5fb6023ce2ec449561782d09e3c7e5ac7c7b), [01cdbbd](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/01cdbbdc556262c47d04a5b3391dd9c17946d3fc)).
-- **MCP contracts:** Advertise self-contained tool inputs while preserving tuple, array, Boolean and nested-JSON constraints across schema profiles. Schema-reference handling no longer rewrites literal metadata; catalog identity includes the output-schema profile. ([5e30969](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/5e30969cc5f1255d44ec7a1f1ca8dbac0af5e7c4), [10aa74d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/10aa74dfedc3ae776f50d1fa1eb83b64ae82d3d6), [204b9f3](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/204b9f3ac140a993c3e458bb0e117de31818ab29), [b3389a5](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/b3389a5b0834265fe7a40391be315d810a53a97e), [a2e3016](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/a2e30168a046f3b79319eb7fbaf807b802104199), [ba98130](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/ba98130049fa40ade66b03611ff70c7ddc011a1d), [c5fb86d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c5fb86d1948af0a287a581b29b2b1d554743c607)). Thanks @akushonkamen, @HarsH-1877, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @xingzihai.
-- **Session ordering:** Keep snapshot admission ahead of later calls on the same connection, retain shutdown signals until cleanup succeeds, and preserve inspection authority through investigation publication. ([#3661](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3661), [morluto/rea#3334](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3334), [8873b39](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/8873b39770e89eae22b7693bc492d7e423b22bea), [663d07f](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/663d07f02cd62c99d81c59391d2c6d745c875335)). Thanks @coygeek, @rudycelekli, @Swatantra-66.
-- **JavaScript exports and resolution:** Retain CommonJS exports created with `Object.defineProperty` and track export receiver lifetimes. Resolve scoped packages, package `main`, JSON requires and `.mts`/`.cts` imports using the owning loader; overwritten `require` bindings and erased type-only imports no longer create false runtime links. ([#4725](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4725), [morluto/rea#4724](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4724), [#3567](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3567), [morluto/rea#3541](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3541), [#4838](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4838), [morluto/rea#4632](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4632), [#3844](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3844), [morluto/rea#3383](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3383), [#4164](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4164), [morluto/rea#3915](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3915), [#4223](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4223), [#3801](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3801), [morluto/rea#3393](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3393), [#4165](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4165), [morluto/rea#3932](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3932)). Thanks @Abishek0070, @coygeek, @JNTMTMTM, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @prasad2512, @rodricksz4h5, @xu91102.
-- **JavaScript value flow:** Preserve values captured before later assignments, guarded factory fallthrough and nested destructuring. Track exact property keys and setter writes; direct `eval`, compound assignments and incoming callbacks preserve unresolved effects instead of inventing certainty. ([#4196](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4196), [morluto/rea#3881](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3881), [#4341](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4341), [morluto/rea#3963](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3963), [bfb7ed0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/bfb7ed0bd43edc605e00fc52c6e21e735b285904), [#3480](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3480), [#3831](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3831), [morluto/rea#3312](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3312), [9ac76d3](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/9ac76d3d9486856d25395b413d7ac5ffa744cad0), [#4342](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4342), [morluto/rea#4206](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4206), [#4243](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4243), [morluto/rea#3880](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3880)). Thanks @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @maxazure, @N0zoM1z0, @ShuaixinHuang.
-- **JavaScript relationships:** Distinguish `Map` reads from network endpoints, associate response endpoints only with writes that reach the read, and preserve child-process receiver ownership and effective stdio choices. Version comparisons keep relocation and unknown relationships distinct from application changes. ([fbfdb6a](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/fbfdb6abe9d663be0be146a15a489e33ccba0f68), [#4759](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4759), [morluto/rea#4606](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4606), [#3819](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3819), [morluto/rea#3362](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3362), [#4336](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4336), [morluto/rea#3355](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3355), [556504e](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/556504edcbb0f8cd9eaf81a91b18ff891b8f5457), [4d980d0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/4d980d017622d3175d86aaf3b0dcfbdf4ca3d091)). Thanks @Abdooo2235, @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @Xinglan233.
-- **JavaScript source admission:** Parse JavaScript with its own grammar, refuse FIFO recovery inputs without blocking, and report oversized or resource-skipped files with their actual capacity and coverage state. Malformed runtime events stay excluded rather than becoming policy-filtered facts. ([#3782](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3782), [morluto/rea#3780](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3780), [#3788](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3788), [morluto/rea#3332](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3332), [#4757](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4757), [morluto/rea#4629](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4629), [#3852](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3852), [morluto/rea#3670](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3670), [#4755](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4755), [morluto/rea#4685](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4685)). Thanks @andresaragon, @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @sx4im.
-- **Browser capture:** Bound CDP handshakes and command responses, preserve malformed inventory uncertainty and partial cleanup diagnostics, and report cancellation after content reads and final cleanup. Accessibility comparisons require observed coverage; attached emulation teardown limits remain explicit. ([#3555](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3555), [morluto/rea#3553](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3553), [#3901](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3901), [morluto/rea#3379](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3379), [4cc044b](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/4cc044be68f813e96907e6cedcf422d0a3170de3), [#4406](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4406), [morluto/rea#4403](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4403), [#2893](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2893), [0123d59](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/0123d5976828bfe621bd51daa4cf39fee48a1349), [2ff0867](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/2ff086796ad7b8f60397956750584e170dbe2910)). Thanks @coygeek, @dakjdakd, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @maxazure, @N0zoM1z0, @YunzhouLi-hub.
-- **Browser page facts:** Preserve URL path bytes when removing credentials, repeated document `Link` headers and complete COOP/COEP structured items. WebMCP discovery reads the actual schema properties and exact receiver path. ([#4731](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4731), [df2fc25](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/df2fc251e318a1255309dba232f9f73c700777b6), [c360cfc](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c360cfcd6d7901514b16dd6113eba2e0b0fdf422), [ebd5a82](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/ebd5a82c439f6deb3a06062225ce009eb03257cf), [38f92d1](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/38f92d108e3148cdf47e4ffbfe3de8a76e795d51)). Thanks @Abdooo2235, @geekwolf, @ShuaixinHuang.
-- **Electron runtime capture:** Keep native IPC listener and one-shot dispatch behavior, block synchronous shell effects during capture, refuse active scenarios when the inspect fuse is disabled, and preserve fuse/transport cleanup ownership.

-- **APK resource accuracy:** Retain completed tables and decode facts after interrupted or failed reads. Derive locale limits from resource configuration fields, disclose unselectable qualified tables, distinguish document failures from omitted entries, and bind Evidence to the decoded snapshot. ([34a88d6](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/34a88d6c1674710953e2c94bd0a17332cd69ca6f), [f5fcf52](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/f5fcf5216ffb3a266b8c00f6d9a0943051084ab5), [6385ef4](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/6385ef4355d7a794b3154ee38529cbddee583336), [98886ad](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/98886adddfcbd7b4f4236b3a9825f91878c3cb11), [dc2e811](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/dc2e8117b60c4481372ed89b077e6c1cf81ee653), [#4771](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4771), [morluto/rea#4768](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4768)). Thanks @abhay-2108, @gensokyo-dev, @Iyanuoluwa007, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Apktool guidance:** Retain the observed version and disclose the matching platform/release advisory windows without treating a version string as proof of decoder safety. Missing prerequisites and decode refusals identify the selected APK or launcher. ([d38f099](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d38f099692394ec90c582f9f0a14b036b421b160), [63696d2](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/63696d277328f556c971d1fc9f81ae83128d468b), [cc038da](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/cc038da218cada68c87700477aba3db4739791ff)). Thanks @GovinduSasanka, @peter-research.
-- **Android method bodies:** Recover original bytecode bodies when Java source is omitted while preserving genuine native/abstract body absence and primary failures during retryable cleanup. ([63c65a2](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/63c65a22430a4bbc0c1807a0298edb867775001f), [742b6f5](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/742b6f587f3c4ef1b8212e7376d6f3a305b194dc), [9fa6d2b](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/9fa6d2b254cc390665974efb52463386a029e9fc)). Thanks @balkan16, @Chessing234.
-- **ADB observations and transfers:** Preserve display-scoped focus, distinguish missing declarations from absent focus, retain numeric physical density and mark unknown permission coverage partial. Transfers use consumed snapshot identity and refuse unknown destination existence; uninstall requests explicitly select user zero. ([7086768](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/7086768a27242a15daa93486aefbaacc3c891e78), [3d028db](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3d028dbc74a465f6f8df1813a931fbb5362e7dc3), [#4074](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4074), [morluto/rea#3942](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3942), [#4663](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4663), [#4665](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4665), [1342127](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/1342127e91d4db8b4113a7a4e85be909bc96e1db), [61e6880](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/61e688070f48016b6d178cd04c02fcc2f33e19ad), [be0b2d1](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/be0b2d138c46bb951fc3c8ee57ef7b0d57fed312)). Thanks @Copilot, @coygeek, @gongfpp, @Tapraj-Pathak, @yankikucuk.
-- **Apple metadata:** Preserve exact plist/keyed-archive integers, negative zero, non-finite real identity and dictionary keys. Reject malformed XML before value decoding, retain undecodable dates as unknown and report unsupported OpenStep entries explicitly.

Thanks @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @mertkayacs, @pablodiazjorge, @pollychen-lab, @xu91102.
-- **Apple application structure:** Derive bundle components and launchd domains from their owning directories, retain unavailable components, and select only exact `Assets.car` names as asset catalogs. Interface Builder keeps unresolved classes and counts hierarchy records beyond the returned object page. ([149a0fc](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/149a0fc06c3c67ee45624e6da14dfb0754473758), [5d6029e](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/5d6029ea62a65ec34fd739ee40223c77c6fdb63b), [c192c58](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c192c58815ddeaf5cf30159e7082c742c0bc36b7), [#4094](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4094), [morluto/rea#3914](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3914), [#4118](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4118), [morluto/rea#3958](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3958), [#4162](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4162), [morluto/rea#3950](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3950)). Thanks @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji.
-- **Native names and layout:** Keep valid Objective-C records beside malformed neighbors, preserve leading U+FEFF and repeated load-command fields, and select exact arm64e.x1 slices. PE resource ownership and NativeAOT reads stay within declared image/header ranges. ([#3833](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3833), [morluto/rea#3336](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3336), [#4549](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4549), [morluto/rea#4540](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4540), [morluto/rea#4541](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4541), [#4730](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4730), [#4048](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4048), [morluto/rea#4008](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4008), [#3500](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3500), [morluto/rea#3389](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3389), [#4463](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4463), [morluto/rea#4373](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4373), [morluto/rea#4455](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4455), [3fc0075](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3fc007534bb2104d662b43cc712281f9d1d6a7d3), [4a076f3](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/4a076f368c62bdfb19415accad342e03a38d1005)). Thanks @coygeek, @Iyanuoluwa007, @jayinvers, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @kevinjosh10, @maxazure, @ShuaixinHuang.
-- **Native analysis providers:** Keep Ghidra byte matches within examined coverage, retain PE PDB/function-boundary limitations and preserve configured MIPS choices. Attached IDA refuses universal Mach-O rather than silently choosing a slice; request timeout identity and captured output survive adapter handling. ([#4531](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4531), [#2933](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2933), [morluto/rea#2259](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2259), [01a1b3f](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/01a1b3fda6a7dacd24a0b10619d41d12153080d4), [50dd9fc](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/50dd9fcad1efb47cb404192c30bdf190dcdaca58), [#4765](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4765), [morluto/rea#3871](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3871), [c0cfccb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c0cfccb45fe43e7eeff18e56c64caa5b121988f9)). Thanks @BeLit-Development-2, @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0, @ShuaixinHuang.
-- **Recorded crashes:** Prevent GDB from discovering an executable named by an untrusted core, reject core mapping paths that escape the isolated sysroot, and preserve pwntools worker ownership across launcher exec. Completed decode facts and cancellation reasons remain available through failed final cleanup. ([5bf4fff](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/5bf4fffc1b835130ddb16f96db9ce13b639591db), [b33c0df](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/b33c0df02e93fabca00a44f2de625b1a63637ee9), [#4435](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4435), [morluto/rea#4011](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4011)). Thanks @coygeek, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Cutter and Rizin:** Read Cutter’s active document from core configuration and attribute its host version correctly. Keep interrupted Rizin frames and output whitespace before completion markers, with exact command and cleanup failure attribution. ([#4507](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4507), [morluto/rea#4497](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4497), [#4514](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4514), [morluto/rea#4498](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4498), [#4459](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4459), [morluto/rea#4015](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4015), [d5fc7e6](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d5fc7e6ebf9af050081fc4c6e18b9079cfaa5cdc), [199396f](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/199396f61c8f61da326d059606a992304a760147)). Thanks @coygeek, @N0zoM1z0, @Xander-AJ.
-- **Windows cleanup:** Retain unpublished runtimes after failed removal, handle read-only attributes and sharing conflicts, preserve primary snapshot failures and honor caller environment overrides. ([f78d137](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/f78d137b42741a0ed5fb8ac161286f9a50220c4d), [d69acc3](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d69acc3455c33f90a2fc4381db43d38b6af50622), [0679a79](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/0679a7972b4f2b02eee6a86a44f50f4c2967d3cb), [5f9ac2c](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/5f9ac2c98a6fe11988c41afb737df9b6d5c3a1b3), [1bbf4bd](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/1bbf4bd16ca134cdb2187eaf29291cae90d14a57)). Thanks @DeryFerd.
-- **Managed metadata:** Compare nominal signatures and declaring identities across builds, preserve empty names without display substitutions, verify ABI-prefixed Mach-O exports exactly, and charge cached metadata once. Metadata errors report artifact file offsets; mixed-mode assemblies retain their actual boundary classification. ([#3059](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3059), [#3079](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3079), [#3853](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3853), [morluto/rea#3352](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3352), [#3974](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3974), [morluto/rea#3961](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3961), [#3491](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3491), [morluto/rea#3449](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3449), [#4418](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4418), [morluto/rea#4372](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4372), [#3516](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3516), [morluto/rea#3366](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3366)).

-- **Archive and filesystem identity:** Reject colliding extraction paths before writing, classify ZIP offsets beyond EOF as malformed, normalize ZIP current-directory prefixes once, and preserve symlink and unreadable-path provenance. A directory named `*.map` is no longer mistaken for a source-map file. ([862a0b2](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/862a0b2631785492f8dc20c8acd396646c545fd1), [c209dcb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c209dcb209118069f123e789949eeba1ef78853e), [6b1c36e](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/6b1c36e336eeacbb7159b211e687b4b84f99b9f5), [25c2222](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/25c22222abe7a681491bdb4d7316250fdcf32973), [d6e4fe4](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d6e4fe4a4dd8914ec3db50d2a7fc3d0802649262), [#4131](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4131), [morluto/rea#3909](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3909)). Thanks @Adkid-Zephyr, @coygeek, @jackie-cqz, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @maxazure, @XY-code1.
-- **Evidence and reconstruction:** Authenticate all retained inventory substeps, preserve source-attributed caveats in composed workflows, and require comparable cited Evidence before declaring reconstruction coverage or readiness. Missing Evidence and residual replay uncertainty stay explicit. ([9ac91e0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/9ac91e0c1e13e91cd21341635ad5be89b0e8642d), [c4608a2](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c4608a29620ea3e7bb8259b47357b942fe4e4709), [#4075](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4075), [morluto/rea#3357](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3357), [#3526](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3526), [morluto/rea#3363](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3363), [153017d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/153017d750322188c1a112b2284c1b8065c67320)). Thanks @coygeek, @gensokyo-dev, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0, @rudycelekli.
-- **Offline data:** Preserve exact UTC packet-capture instants, SQLite column identity and snapshot admission failures, and cooked WASM directive literals. Cleanup cancellation retains completed EVM/WASM observations rather than losing them. ([796faa0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/796faa0e4e6bf745bcdc33acef65af8ccfc3622d), [748ac7f](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/748ac7f0df340f0d0569eca2e803a59cd51ffdbd), [bc51d0e](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/bc51d0ea5df7dcee1fcc42dfae3ab0c62c9cca5e), [4f87f02](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/4f87f02bb19bf77349a683a5bcb2da2d1da427d0), [d694aef](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d694aef227e90164e6654ea9e5ce6a854d099404), [321cacb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/321cacb84a020f447e1110df5c58fa71d99b7bf1)). Thanks @himamaheswarreddy, @mertkayacs, @rollroyces, @viniciusdsandrade.
-- **Kuna recovery:** Share concurrent single-function requests and cache repeats, validate warm exports once, stream string inventories beyond the former fixed buffer ceiling, and keep unproven processes in their run slots until close confirms release. Failure messages distinguish final buffer refusals from configurable deadlines. ([#4045](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4045), [#4169](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4169), [#4049](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4049), [#4318](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4318), [#4052](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4052), [#4098](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4098), [#4343](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4343)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji.
-- **Flutter snapshots:** Check symbol-table ranges against loadable segments and retain completed inspection facts when cancellation occurs during snapshot cleanup. ([#3859](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3859), [morluto/rea#3346](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3346), [#4766](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4766), [morluto/rea#4717](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4717), [#4762](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4762), [morluto/rea#4640](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4640)). Thanks @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji.
-- **Native metadata recovery:** Keep unknown Objective-C category classes, empty protocol names, undecoded Swift aliases and unfinished property types explicit instead of discarding neighboring valid records. Preserve unnamed segment identity and exclude a dylib’s own install name from dependencies. ([#4093](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4093), [morluto/rea#4012](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4012), [#4078](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4078), [morluto/rea#3873](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3873), [#4085](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4085), [morluto/rea#3934](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3934), [#3825](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3825), [morluto/rea#3345](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3345), [#4051](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4051), [morluto/rea#3875](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3875), [#4050](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4050), [morluto/rea#3872](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3872)). Thanks @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji.
-- **Document selection:** Preserve explicitly selected plist paths and bundle defaults, and only use document fallback after confirming its applicability. Finalization keeps completed selection facts and cancellation outcomes. ([e6c4877](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/e6c487799bb64f559e66b69be1863e6ec5187548), [#3774](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3774), [9df559b](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/9df559b7e712298a761ff26e9caae8d659b7e54b)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji.
-- **Capture and comparison accuracy:** Admit schema-valid HAR numeric values while retaining exact-publication limits, preserve empty URL path segments, and keep unrelated process traces and unnamed reference endpoints distinct or unknown. ([#3159](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3159), [morluto/rea#3145](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3145), [#3792](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3792), [morluto/rea#3307](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3307), [#4178](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4178), [morluto/rea#3931](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3931), [#3809](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3809), [morluto/rea#3388](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3388)).

-- **Evidence publication:** Recheck staged output identity after its final write, classify missing review Evidence and duplicate ledger entries as caller input, and preserve the selected freshness requirement in comparison parameters. ([#4764](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4764), [morluto/rea#4613](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4613), [#4452](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4452), [morluto/rea#4444](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4444), [#4065](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4065), [morluto/rea#4000](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4000)).

-### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
-
-- **Saved Evidence:** Evidence and analysis snapshots now require explicit nullable `relationship_coverage` in their identity commitments. Artifact inventories require scoped coverage and explicit `integrity_contradictions`; obsolete `coverage_status` and prose-based coverage inference are removed. Regenerate old Evidence/snapshots and inventory observations with this release: saved files are not migrated and omitted facts are not filled with guessed defaults. ([db8128d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/db8128dc0d1c4f731f3d19877fa00d25cf17f657), [0405c9d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/0405c9d361de6d904dfa16cc0b6d8350407f2c9b), [a9588be](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/a9588be4ebdd20eeda975cb63ffcdb1cd868b340)).
-- **Browser capture results:** Consumers must retain resolved capture limits, event families and omission facts. Set desired budgets through the supported capture options; omitted caller inputs still select defaults, but stored observations must report the resolved values. Admitted content reads queue behind bounded concurrency. ([57a23f0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/57a23f0a2da0fdc3835e203718ded8acea5a34e6)).
-- **Android version codes:** `inspect_adb_package.version_code` is a decimal string rather than a JSON number. Read it as a string, or use `BigInt` for numeric comparison. ([#3485](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3485), [morluto/rea#3368](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3368), [7666a48](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/7666a482b69dc7cabdbac3bbaf89a43e32300192)). Thanks @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji.
-- **Native UI failures:** Failed or cancelled native UI scenarios now return typed errors with the collected report in `partial_observation`. Handle the error path and read that report instead of expecting a successful result containing failed steps. ([d909919](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d9099190ab3a819bd3a9fd62a8714cef398016d5)).
-- **Provider status:** `binary_session` candidate availability can be unknown during owner finalization. Preserve that state rather than treating it as unavailable; internal consumers must await the asynchronous session status API. ([150e996](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/150e996a86f2bec4982ba87f37bf502a8d5e8214)).
-- **Swift symbol locations:** `swift_symbols` entries may have a null `address` when the provider supplies no location. Handle unknown addresses; optional `evidence.reported_address` retains the original provider value. ([8116dc0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/8116dc06512b4609d8db63cebc9f2ff8cb964151)).
-- **Linux Hopper admission:** Older builds previously admitted by a fixed allowlist need retained publisher-signed package evidence or an approved update to the current public demo. Update explicit `HOPPER_LAUNCHER_PATH` selections when migrating; the live feed offers only its current release. The official RPM metadata mismatch remains unresolved and is refused. ([#3590](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3590), [morluto/rea#3577](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3577), [70cd4cb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/70cd4cbfb849b61f05d97d2690372a9782831426)).

-For `inspect_adb_window`, `focus_contexts` retains each display header, its exact
-display ID when recognized, and every focus declaration with its original line.
-Declarations without a display header are explicitly `unscoped`. A missing
-declaration differs from a declaration whose `value` is JSON `null`.
-`source_section` identifies the selected dumpsys section; `observed_lines`
-preserves its focus declarations and display headers in source order.
-
-`focus_summary` is `single_context` only for one context with no repeated focus
-field. The singular `focused_window` and `focused_app` summarize that context;
-they do not establish device-wide focus. Multiple contexts or repeated fields
-produce `ambiguous` with null singular fields and all declarations retained.
-When no focus field was declared, the status is `unavailable`. REA reads the
-displays section only when the windows section declares neither focus field.
-
 For `install_adb_package`, `replace_requested` records whether `-r` was sent.
 The `replaced` result is `null`: the successful install response does not say
 whether the package was installed fresh or replaced, and REA does not query the
 device first. The install verdict and host APK digest remain available.
 
-Push and install consume a private snapshot of the selected local input. The
-reported size and SHA-256 identify those consumed bytes; `local_path` and

-Snapshot creation needs temporary disk space proportional to the input size.
-Failed snapshot cleanup remains owned and is retried before later operations

-# Agent environments from recorded captures
-
-Use `rea environment-serve` to serve an environment manifest as an agent
-environment: an MCP server whose tools answer from what one retained web
-network capture observed, plus the environment card the agentenv framework
-reads to discover it. By default the server derives the
-[state the capture observed](#the-state-a-capture-observed) at startup and
-answers read tools from it; `--replay-only` replays the capture's records
-instead. Nothing is fetched from the recorded application; every answer comes
-from retained Evidence. `rea environment-export` writes the same pair as a
-bundle folder `agent-env run` builds and runs; see
-[Export a bundle](#export-a-bundle).
-
-```sh
-rea inspect-web-network-capture /absolute/session.har har --format json > capture.json
-rea inspect-analysis-view view.json --format json > manifest.json
-rea environment-serve manifest.json --evidence capture.json --port 8765
-```
-
-The first command inspects the capture; the second projects the
-[environment manifest](web-network-captures.md#environment-manifest) view from
-it, where `view.json` wraps the capture Evidence as the inline source:
-
-```json
-{
-  "source": { "kind": "inline", "evidence": { "evidence_id": "ev_…" } },
-  "view": {
-    "kind": "environment-manifest",
-    "template_rules": ["after-uid-literal", "opaque-token", "sibling-variance"]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-The third command serves that manifest from the state it derives from the
-capture; see [Serve from the state](#serve-from-the-state). Both served files
-are complete REA Evidence JSON as the commands write it with `--format json`;
-the `evidence` member of `view.json` is the whole of `capture.json`.
-
-## From a browser scenario
-
-The capture can also come from REA itself: a
-[browser scenario](browser-scenario-contract.md) records a scripted session
-in a browser REA launches, and its Evidence is a manifest parent like a HAR
-inspection. Select the `network` event family and response bodies. A replayed
-reply carries up to 256 KiB of a recorded body, but the scenario keeps at most
-`max_network_body_bytes` of each body (64 KiB by default), and only within its
-allocation budgets: base64 is charged about 11 bytes per body byte, and
-redaction more the shorter a declared secret is (about 35 bytes per body byte
-for a 12-character `admin_password`). A body over
-`max_network_body_allocation_bytes` (1 MiB by default) is kept as `unavailable`
-with that reason; one over `max_event_allocation_bytes` (4 MiB) or
-`max_total_event_allocation_bytes` (16 MiB) loses its whole content event,
-headers included, which the capture lists among its omissions. Either way its
-tool replays no body. The example raises all four so that 256 KiB bodies are
-kept when the declared secret has at least 12 characters:

-Each network transaction becomes one record, in request order, and the
-record's ordinal is its zero-based position; a transaction whose URL carried a
-redacted secret is left unrepresented rather than templated, and one the
-capture cannot attribute to a single request and response is left
-unrepresented too. Tools are chosen by response media type, so a scenario that
-selected neither response bodies nor header values is refused; one that
-selected header values but no response bodies yields a manifest but no state,
-so it is served by replay. The browser
-scenario redacts credential headers and the secrets it declares; values the
-application returns in response bodies, such as session tokens, are kept, and
-the replayed body is the bytes the browser exposes for each response, with any
-declared secret replaced by its redaction marker (a body that redaction had to
-empty replays no body).
-
-## What a manifest is
-
-An environment manifest is a projection of one application's recorded request
-lines into a tool surface: one tool per method and path template on the
-primary origin, with inferred path parameters, observed query parameter
-names, value-free body shapes and pointers to the parent records each tool
-cites. It carries no bodies and no headers. The manifest's
-`parent_evidence_id` names the capture Evidence it was projected from; the
-serve command refuses a manifest whose parent is not the supplied `--evidence`
-file with an `invalid_request` error naming both identifiers, so a manifest can
-never be served from records it did not cite.
-
-The MCP catalog and environment card use a 1 KiB UTF-8 budget for each
-captured display sample. Observation, body-key and cited-record lists show
-whole values with omission counts; long method, path and query-name displays
-show a marked prefix. Complete values remain in manifest Evidence. Argument
-names longer than 64 characters use collision-safe `path_<n>` or `query_<n>` aliases; replay maps
-those aliases to the complete captured names.
-
-Discovery is admitted as a complete catalog under a 1 MiB serialization
-reservation before the listener binds. Reservation charges up to six bytes per
-UTF-16 code unit for JSON escaping/UTF-8 expansion, plus schema overhead;
-a catalog may therefore be refused even when its compact JSON is smaller.
-This was calibrated with 1500 query fields and eight concurrent SDK discovery
-requests (183,798-byte card, 507.27 MiB sampled process-family RSS). Over-capacity
-catalogs return `resource_constraint`, retain complete input Evidence, and require
-a smaller capture or manifest. Fields and tools are never silently omitted.
-Served from the state, each description is longer and the card declares the
-data plane, so a catalog replay admits can exceed the reservation; the state
-is then unavailable and the server serves replay instead (see
-[Serve from the state](#serve-from-the-state)).
-
-## What replay means and does not mean
-
-Replay answers every tool with `--replay-only` or when the state is unavailable,
-and, served from the state, each read tool whose view the state does not back.
-Each such MCP tool call selects one of the records its manifest tool cites and
-returns that record's recorded response. Selection compares the supplied path
-parameters against the record's path segments at the parameter indexes, then
-the supplied query values against the record's query string, and keeps the
-record with the most matches; ties keep manifest order. The result reports
-where the answer came from:
-
-```json
-{
-  "status": 200,
-  "content_type": "application/json",
-  "body": { "id": 2, "login": "probe" },
-  "replay": {
-    "record_ordinal": 5,
-    "evidence_id": "ev_…",
-    "exact_match": true,
-    "recorded_path": "/api/users/2",
-    "recorded_query": null,
-    "recorded_line_truncated": false,
-    "body_recorded": true,
-    "body_encoding": "utf-8",
-    "truncated": false
-  }
-}
-```
-
-`exact_match` is true when every supplied path parameter and query value
-equals the recorded one; it says nothing about parameters the caller omitted.
-Recorded query parsing runs only when supplied query arguments affect selection.
-A path value matches a recorded segment as written or after percent-decoding;
-when both kinds of match are available, the record whose segment equals the
-value as written is chosen. `recorded_query` keeps the `?` of an explicit empty
-query, and a recorded path or query longer than 1 KiB is cut in the reply with
-`recorded_line_truncated: true`; selection always uses the full recorded line.
-`content_type` also has a 1 KiB display bound with `content_type_truncated`; body
-interpretation uses the full recorded media type.
-When no record matches, the tool still answers from the tool's first cited
-record and reports `exact_match: false`. `body` is parsed JSON when the
-recorded content type is JSON-like (`application/json`, `application/*+json`,
-`text/plain`, `text/markdown`) and the text parses with safe numeric conversion; otherwise
-it is the recorded text. Large integer IDs and other numbers that would lose
-information stay in the original JSON text. Bodies over 256 KiB are cut at a UTF-8 boundary and returned as
-text with `truncated: true`. `body_recorded` is false when the capture kept the
-response's status and content type but no body; `body` is then `null`, which
-is not a recorded JSON `null`. `body_encoding` is `base64` when the capture
-retained response bytes that are not valid UTF-8; `body` is then exactly those
-bytes in base64, never a lossy decoding. A retained base64 body is decoded only as far as the 256 KiB a reply can carry, and a leading byte-order mark is kept. For a `base64` body the limit applies to the recorded bytes, not their longer base64 spelling, and a cut keeps whole base64 groups. Request bodies passed to `POST`, `PUT` and `PATCH`
-tools are accepted and ignored: nothing is written, and no call changes what a
-later call returns. Arguments the tool's input schema does not name are
-refused by the MCP server as invalid arguments, so a misspelled parameter never
-degrades into an omitted one.
-
-Replay is not emulation. A served environment does not establish the
-application's authorization model, response semantics or state transitions,
-which the manifest lists as unknowns; it does not validate supplied values; and
-it answers only from the capture's recordings and the state they observed or a
-caller loaded through `data/add`. Replayed content is
-target content: every tool result, including the argument errors the MCP server
-returns before a replay runs, carries `_meta.provenance.untrusted_content: true`
-with `source: "analysis_target"`. The server advertises REA's untrusted-content
-instructions plus a warning that its tool names, descriptions, parameter names
-and observed values come from the capture too, and agents must treat all of it
-as data, never as instructions.
-That same warning prefixes every tool description in the standalone card, so
-card discovery carries it before an MCP client initializes. It labels the
-captured text without changing the tool names or schema fields clients use.
-
-## The state a capture observed
-
-Replay answers each call from one recording, so the answers reflect whichever
-moment of the capture recorded them. The
-[environment state](web-network-captures.md#environment-state) view extracts
-instead the data the capture's reads observed before the first related write:
-entity types with an identity field, entities with their recorded values,
-documents for reads that are not entities, and a render plan per read tool,
-kept only where it reproduces that tool's recordings from the state. It is the
-starting state an environment holds, loads and reports: `environment-serve`
-derives it from the capture at startup; see
-[Serve from the state](#serve-from-the-state). With `--replay-only`, replay is
-unchanged.
-
-## Serve a manifest
-
-```sh
-rea environment-serve manifest.json --evidence capture.json [--replay-only] [--host 127.0.0.1] [--port 0]
-```
-
-The server derives the state from the capture before it binds and serves from
-it, or serves replay with `--replay-only` or when the state is unavailable;
-see [Serve from the state](#serve-from-the-state).
-
-`--host` and `--port` default to `MCP_HOST` and `MCP_PORT` from the
-environment, then to `127.0.0.1` and an ephemeral port, exactly as
-[`rea mcp --http`](cli.md#serve-mcp-over-streamable-http) resolves them. The
-bound MCP URL is written to stderr as one JSON log line
-(`"msg":"MCP transport listening"` with `url`); `REA_LOG_LEVEL` overrides that
-log level. `ENVIRONMENT_NAME` renames the served environment; otherwise the
-manifest's `name` is used, and a set but blank value is refused as
-`configuration_invalid` before binding rather than silently falling back. The
-listener serves one MCP client at a time with the same session, `Host` header
-and shutdown contract as [transports](mcp-contracts.md#transports) describes.
-It runs until SIGINT or SIGTERM, then closes the listener, prints one
-`{"status":"stopped", …}` document whose `state` member says whether it served
-from the state, and exits `130` or `143`.
-Signals during input loading or DNS/bind cancel the owning reader/listener before
-a listening announcement;
-that path returns a structured `cancelled` result instead of a stopped-listener
-document, with the same signal exit status.
-
-Three routes are served:
-
-| Route                             | Answer                                                                                                                                                         |
-| --------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `POST /mcp`                       | The MCP server: from the state, one tool per read tool, answering from the state where it backs them; in replay, one tool per manifest tool, replaying records |
-| `GET /.well-known/agent-env.json` | The environment card                                                                                                                                           |
-| `POST /agentenv`                  | From the state, `data/reset`, `data/add` and `data/get`; in replay, JSON-RPC `-32601 method not found: <method>` for every method                              |
-
-Numeric JSON-RPC IDs outside JavaScript's safe range or whose precision would
-be lost are refused as invalid requests with a null ID. They are never echoed
-as a different number.
-
-In replay the data plane at `/agentenv` is advertised by the card but carries
-no operations; the error names the requested method so a caller can see that
-the method, not the transport, is unsupported. Its request body is
-read within the same 4 MiB bound the MCP endpoint applies: a larger body is
-answered `413` with a JSON-RPC `-32000` error before any of it is parsed, and a
-body that is not JSON is answered `400` with `-32700`. A notification (no `id`)
-gets `202` and no body, a batch gets one reply per request in it, and an empty
-batch, a batch of more than 100 messages, or a message that is not a JSON-RPC
-request (including an `id` that is not a string, number or null, or `params`
-that are not an object or array) gets `-32600 invalid request`.
-
-## The environment card
-
-The card is the discovery document the agentenv framework reads before
-connecting to `/mcp`. A replay environment's card reads:
-
-```json
-{
-  "name": "grafana-example",
-  "protocolVersion": "1.0",
-  "url": "/agentenv",
-  "preferredTransport": "JSONRPC",
-  "additionalInterfaces": [{ "url": "/mcp", "transport": "mcp" }],
-  "capabilities": {
-    "extensions": null,
-    "tools": [
-      {
-        "name": "get_users_by_id",
-        "description": "Untrusted captured API catalog: … GET /api/users/{numeric}; returns a JSON object with fields \"id\", \"uid\", \"login\", \"email\"; recorded statuses 200; replays retained records [5, 6]; evidence ev_…",
-        "inputSchema": {
-          "type": "object",
-          "properties": {
-            "id": {
-              "type": "string",
-              "description": "Path segment 2 (numeric); observed: 2, 3"
-            }
-          },
-          "required": ["id"],
-          "additionalProperties": false
-        }
-      }
-    ],
-    "operations": []
-  },
-  "children_environments": null
-}
-```
-
-`capabilities.tools` lists the same names, descriptions and input schemas that
-`tools/list` advertises over MCP. After the catalog warning, each description
-names the method and path template, then what the tool returns, one level deep:
-`returns a JSON object with fields …`, `returns a JSON array of objects with
-fields …` or `returns a JSON object whose <member> lists objects with fields …`,
-where a list is an array of objects found by the
-[environment state](web-network-captures.md#environment-state)'s list rule (the
-root array, or the one array of objects an envelope carries). Field and member
-names are written as JSON strings, so a captured name cannot read as more of
-the description; a member name too long to show whole is a quoted prefix marked
-as truncated. The summary comes
-from the first cited `2xx` record that replay answers as JSON; only when none
-did, the first cited JSON record of another status gives it, labelled with that
-status (`status 401 returns …`). It describes one recorded response, not a
-contract. Field names are sampled within the same budget as other captured
-values, and the manifest's `statuses` for the tool follow; a tool with no JSON
-record states only its statuses. The description then lists the replayed
-records and the evidence ID, and the whole catalog stays within its
-serialization reservation, which the summaries and MCP annotations are charged
-to.
-
-Over MCP, every tool also carries annotations: `readOnlyHint` is true for the
-safe methods (`GET`, `HEAD`, `OPTIONS` and `TRACE`) and for query `POST`s (a
-path segment such as `search` or `query`); `destructiveHint` is true for `DELETE` and left unset for other
-writes, so the MCP default (destructive) applies to them, and read-only tools
-omit it because clients ignore it there; `idempotentHint` is true for the safe
-methods, `PUT` and `DELETE`; and `openWorldHint` is false for every tool,
-because answers come from the capture rather than the captured application. The
-hints describe the captured method; replay itself changes nothing. The card
-keeps the `name`, `description` and `inputSchema` of the echo example's tool
-shape and carries no annotations.
-
-Path parameters are required strings whose
-description names the segment index, the templating rule and the observed
-values (sampled within the list budget above; the manifest keeps them all);
-query parameter names are optional strings; write methods accept an
-optional `body` object described by the recorded top-level key types. Each
-input keeps its own argument: a query name equal to a path parameter's name is
-advertised as `query_<name>`, a query name longer than 64 characters as
-`query_<n>` (its position) with the captured name sampled in its description,
-and the write body as `request_body` when a query parameter is named `body`. Every
-schema closes with `additionalProperties: false`, a key the echo example's
-schema does not carry.
-In replay, `extensions`, `operations` and `children_environments` are fixed to
-`null`, `[]` and `null`: a replay environment declares no extensions, no
-data-plane operations and no children. Served
-[from the state](#serve-from-the-state), the card declares the three data-plane
-operations and one intake extension instead, leaves write tools out and
-describes each tool as answering from the state where the state backs it.
-
-## Serve from the state
-
-```sh
-rea environment-serve manifest.json --evidence capture.json
-```
-
-Before it binds, the server derives the
-[environment state](web-network-captures.md#environment-state) the capture
-observed: it runs the `environment-state` view on the capture in-process with
-the manifest's `template_rules` in the same order, exactly as
-`inspect-analysis-view` projects it from the same capture, so the state
-Evidence id it reports is the one that projection produces. The view's own
-budget and refusals apply, and the result is checked like the view's Evidence
-for this manifest: extracted from the served capture, with the manifest's
-rules, naming only manifest tools. The server keeps one live state, shared by
-every MCP session and the data plane, starting from the derived state.
-
-A state that is unavailable does not stop the server: it logs a warning naming
-the error `code` and message before it binds, then serves replay. The state is
-unavailable when it cannot be derived, such as from a
-`capture_browser_scenario` capture that selected header values but no response
-bodies or over the view's budget, and when its catalog under the served name
-exceeds the [discovery reservation](#what-a-manifest-is). That check runs
-first, so no state is derived for it, and replay is then admitted exactly as
-with `--replay-only`. `--replay-only`
-serves replay without deriving anything; the card, tools and `/agentenv`
-answers are then exactly those of replay. The stopped document's `state`
-member reports which applied:
-
-- `{"served": true, "evidence_id": "ev_…"}`: served from the derived state.
-- `{"served": false, "reason": "replay-only"}`: `--replay-only` was given.
-- `{"served": false, "reason": "unavailable", "code": "unsupported_target", "message": "…"}`:
-  the state is unavailable; `code` and `message` are those of the refusal
-  (`resource_constraint` for a catalog over the reservation), as the warning
-  logged them.
-

-| `item`     | The entity the path arguments name, rendered into the recorded envelope of `envelope_ordinal`. Arguments match as replay matches them: each collection segment equals the held collection's segment as written or after percent-decoding, and the identity is the last argument percent-decoded, then as written; values are never re-split on `/`. Any entity the state holds answers, including one `data/add` loaded; query arguments only decide `replay.exact_match`. An entity the state does not hold, or one lacking a field every recording carried, is a tool error; a body is never invented. |
-| `list`     | When the arguments name one of the lines the view checked exactly (its latest recordings before the first related write; every path and query value equal to the recording's, and every recorded query parameter supplied), that recorded envelope with its array rendered from the state: every entity of the collection in state order for `membership: "all"`, or the recorded members still held. A member lacking a field every recording carried makes the call a tool error rather than a partial list.                                                                                           |

-A list or document call that names no checked line, including a line recorded
-after a write or with other query values, answers from the recording. Every
-answer has the replay shape plus `state`: `{"source": "state", "view": …}`
-naming the entity, collection or document path, or `{"source": "recording",
-"reason": …}` with the view's reason, `no-view` or `unrecorded-request`. A
-state answer carries the base record's status, content type and `replay`
-provenance with `truncated: false`; one whose JSON would exceed 256 KiB is
-refused as a `resource_constraint` tool error rather than cut. Serving is
-read-only: `POST`, `PUT`, `PATCH` and `DELETE` tools, other than query `POST`s,
-are not served, so nothing a call does changes the state. Query `POST`s stay
-served and answer from their recordings with the reason `query-body`.
-
-The data plane serves three JSON-RPC methods:
-
-| Method       | Result                                                                                                    |
-| ------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `data/reset` | `{}` after restoring the state the Evidence holds                                                         |
-| `data/add`   | `{}` after replacing the whole state with one valid `rea-state/v1` document                               |
-| `data/get`   | `{"parts": [{"kind": "data", "data": <rea-state/v1 document>}]}` with `state_evidence_id` and the `types` |
-
-Calls run one at a time in arrival order across requests. Every message of a
-batch is queued when the batch arrives, so another request's call never lands
-between them and each message sees the changes of those before it; a reset
-sent while a download is loading applies after that load. `data/add`
-takes exactly one part: a `data` part whose `data` is the document, or a
-`file` part whose `file` carries `bytes` (base64 of UTF-8 JSON) or a `uri`,
-either a `file://` URL of a local regular file, whose host is empty or
-`localhost`, or an `https://` URL fetched without following redirects and
-within 30 seconds, including reading the body; `mimeType`, when given, is
-`application/json`. A `file://` URL naming another host, or a UNC path such as
-`file:////server/share/state.json`, is refused before anything is opened, so a
-load never reaches a network share. A loaded document is at most 32
-MiB, and so is the state as `data/get` writes it back with the members a
-document may omit (`types`, `state_evidence_id`, record citations), so a
-reported state always loads again; an inline part also stays within the 4 MiB
-request body bound, so larger states arrive by `uri`. Anything else, including `{"parts": []}`, is `-32602
-invalid params`; a download that fails or answers a non-2xx status is
-`-32000`. Errors never echo the uri or the content; a file or download failure
-names its category in `error.data.reason`: `not-found`, `permission`,
-`not-regular-file`, `changed` or `read-failed` for files, `timeout`,
-`http-status` or `network` (connection, TLS or a refused redirect) for
-downloads, and `cancelled` for a download the server's stop or its caller's
-departure ended.
-
-Stopping the server cancels every pending call, and a caller that leaves before
-its reply cancels its own: a download in progress ends, and calls not yet run
-are answered `-32000` with `error.data.reason` `cancelled` without running. A
-cancelled call leaves the state unchanged, and shutdown never waits for a
-download.
-
-A `file://` state file whose close fails stays owned by the server, and
-the `data/add` gets `-32000`. The next `file://` load retries that close first
-and, while it still fails, answers `-32000` without reading another file;
-inline and `https://` documents still load. Closing the server retries it once
-more and fails with the unfinished close rather than dropping the descriptor.
-
-One `/agentenv` response carries at most 64 MiB of replies, twice the 32 MiB
-a loaded document may hold: room for a `data/get` of a loaded state, while a
-batch of reads cannot multiply a large state into one body. Replies are
-measured in order as they are produced, in bounded parts and before they are
-assembled, and room is kept for every later reply's budget error and the
-batch's brackets and commas, so one that would take the response past the
-budget is never built whole and is answered instead with `-32000` whose `error.data` gives
-`max_response_bytes` and the `reply_bytes` it would have taken. That call still
-ran, so repeat such a read in another request. A reply no larger than that
-error, such as a write's `{}`, is always kept.

-    ],
-    "documents": []
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Each entity's `type` is a state type's `collection_template`, its `collection`
-matches that template segment by segment (a template parameter matches any one
-segment), its identity field's value is its `id`, and its type, collection and
-id are unique; `view_fields` is optional and names item or list views of its
-type. Views render their values over the entity's fields, so a view's values
-must not set the type's identity field to a value whose text differs from the
-entity's `id`. Spell a collection as requests spell it, as `data/get` reports it: list
-calls find entities under the checked line's recorded path. Each document
-names a `document` view once, at its initial document's `path`. The `version`,
-and the `state_evidence_id` and `types` that `data/get` reports, must match
-the served state, so a `data/get` result loads back unchanged. A number without
-an exact native value, or whose serialized spelling would not be read as exact
-(an integer from 2^53 below 1e21, such as `1e20`, in any spelling), or a
-`__proto__` member is refused rather than altered.
-An invalid document is `-32602` naming the first problem by JSON pointer, as in
-`/rea_state/entities/3/collection` (also in `error.data.path`); a problem
-inside caller data (`fields`, `value`, `types`) is located at that member, so
-the pointer never names the caller's keys. A refused document changes nothing;
-a valid one replaces the whole state at once. The order of `entities` is the
-state order lists use.
-
-Record citations stay Evidence provenance. An entity's `record_ordinals` may
-be omitted or empty and a document's `record_ordinal` omitted; otherwise they
-must be the served Evidence's citations for that entity or document, or the
-document is refused. After loading, an entity or document whose values equal the Evidence's cites
-the Evidence's records, and one whose values were edited or added cites none
-(`record_ordinals: []`, no `record_ordinal`), so `data/get` never presents a
-loaded value as recorded.
-
-The card declares the operations and what `data/add` accepts:
-
-```json
-{
-  "extensions": [
-    {
-      "uri": "urn:agentenv:intake/v1",

-
-The state is a projection of recorded reads. List and document calls answer
-from the state only for the lines their views checked, and every recorded view
-answers from recordings; item calls answer for any held entity but render only
-the envelope one recording carried. Values copied outside entity objects,
-derived values and counters other than those that count a list stay as
-recorded; no write has an effect. An exported bundle carries no state file:
-its server derives the state at startup, as the export does to predict what it
-serves.
-
-## Export a bundle

-`rea environment-export` writes the same pair as a bundle folder the agentenv
-framework runs directly, shaped like its own echo example:

-The command reads each file once, after checking that reading and parsing the
-whole file, including sealing traversal, fits the process's live heap headroom (a file that does not is
-refused as a `resource_constraint` before it is read), then authenticates and cross-checks the
-pair as `environment-serve` does, so a manifest projected from another capture
-is refused with the same `invalid_request` before anything is written, and the
-bytes it copies are the bytes it authenticated. The bundle directory must be
-absent or empty; an occupied directory is refused and nothing in it changes.
-After checking the bundle name, the export prepares the state from the capture
-exactly as the bundle's server will at startup under that name, to predict what
-the bundle serves; an unavailable state, including one whose catalog exceeds
-the discovery reservation, does not stop the export, and the bundle then
-serves replay. The complete tool catalog the bundle serves must also fit the
-server's advertised catalog budget before any files are written. Privately parsed JSON is sealed once so authentication
-and replay share immutable response trees rather than copying the capture repeatedly.
-`--name` replaces the manifest's portable kebab-case name as the env folder and env id
-(Windows device names such as `con` and `lpt1` are refused);
-`--package-tarball <path>` copies a packed `rea-agents` tarball into the env
-folder and makes the Dockerfile install it instead of the registry package and
-remove it in the same layer, which is how a checkout rather than a release is
-run. The command prints the
-written files with their sizes, the pinned package source, the number of tools
-the bundle serves as `tool_count`, and in `state` whether it serves from the
-state, in the shape of the serve command's stopped document.
-
-Export uses the shared output-tree owner to check directory identities around
-exclusive creates, verify written bytes, and reject unowned entries before
-reporting success. It does not delete an inspectable partial folder on failure.
-Node's portable pathname APIs leave a syscall-boundary race, so the output's
-parent directories must be trusted. On POSIX output files use mode `0600`;
-Windows inherits ACLs and REA does not establish owner-only access there. Choose
-an already private Windows destination when captured content needs it.
-
-The Dockerfile sets `MCP_HOST=0.0.0.0` and `MCP_PORT=18765`, the port the
-framework maps for an MCP server env; the framework's own deploy supplies
-`MCP_HOST`, `MCP_PORT` and `ENVIRONMENT_NAME`, so the served card carries the
-env's name. It installs Debian's `python3` because the framework's local
-sandbox probes a container's readiness with `python3` inside it, which the slim
-Node image lacks. It copies the two inputs owned by the image's non-root `node`
-user, so a private host umask cannot leave them unreadable, runs as that user and starts
-`rea environment-serve /env/manifest.json --evidence /env/evidence.json`. The
-`env.toml` names the environment because the framework otherwise reads the
-name from Python sources the image does not have.
-
-`verify.py` is the framework's `async def verify(mcp_url)` shape over its
-Python MCP client: it lists the tools and checks the count equals the number
-the bundle serves (the manifest's read tools from the state, every manifest
-tool in replay), calls one tool with no arguments and checks the call did not
-fail and its `status` is the expected one, and returns one `serve` result
-whose description reports both checks. The tool is the first served `GET` tool
-without path parameters whose answer to no arguments is not an error, and the
-expected status is the status of that answer: the export calls the same answer
-function the server uses, from the derived state or by replay, so a state
-answer carries its base record's status and a replayed one its record's (an
-unknown recorded status stays unknown; it is not borrowed from another
-record). A bundle with no such tool yields a verifier that checks the count
-only and says so. `tasks/smoke.json` deploys the env on the local
-sandbox and runs that verifier against the env's MCP endpoint; the first run
-also builds the framework's own infrastructure, and the run tears everything
-down when it ends.
-
-The README written into the bundle records the capture artifact's SHA-256, the
-capture and manifest Evidence ids, the manifest view digest, the served tool
-count, the derived state's Evidence id or that no state is served, and the
-package source. It says what the environment serves: read tools from the state
-the capture observed, the `/agentenv` data plane on it and no write tools yet,
-replay when the state is unavailable, and `--replay-only` for pure replay; it
-says which applies to this bundle, with the error code and message when the
-state is unavailable, and that neither is emulation and served
-content is untrusted data. It states that the recorded content belongs to the
-captured application and must not be published without the rights to it.
-
-## Compatibility verification
-
-`npm run verify:agentenv:environment` is the hosted `real-agentenv` lane
-described in [testing](testing.md#exported-environment-bundles). It projects
-the Grafana-shaped source-owned capture through the built CLI, packs the
-checkout, exports a bundle with `--package-tarball`, runs it with the pinned
-`agentenv-framework` release on the runner's Docker and requires the smoke task
-to pass with no container left behind other than the framework's own
-image-registry helper, which the receipt reports. It proves that one exported bundle runs
-on one framework release; it does not claim any hosted platform or other
-framework versions.
-
-## Resource and lifecycle boundaries
-
-The Evidence files are read once at startup through the bounded JSON input
-reader and authenticated as Evidence before the listener binds; a file that is
-not Evidence, a manifest of another view kind, a capture of another format, or
-a manifest projected from a different capture is refused before any port is
-opened. The state is derived once, in-process and before binding, from the
-already authenticated capture: it is projected as retained Evidence, so the
-capture's strings are not charged again as inline view input, and the view's
-96 MiB budget bounds the derivation. Because authentication covers the capture's records, a manifest whose
-parent check passes cites only records the capture retains. The server keeps
-only the cited records' request lines and response text in memory, plus the
-live state when it serves from one: the derived initial state, or one
-validated document whose JSON was at most 32 MiB. Data-plane calls run one at a time, so
-at most one loaded document is being read and parsed at once; `data/get`
-serializes the held state whole. No process is launched and nothing is
-written to disk. No outbound network request is made unless a `data/add` call names an
-`https://` uri, which is fetched once within the limits above; a `file://` uri
-is read once. A listener that fails after binding is logged and ends the command with
-a `resource_constraint` error and exit `1` instead of serving nothing.

-
-```sh
-rea mcp --http --port 8765

-`--host` and `--port` default to `MCP_HOST` and `MCP_PORT` from the environment,

-is set to; nothing is written to stdout. `rea mcp --http --help` lists the accepted options. The listener serves
-one client at a time: a session ends with the client's `DELETE`, and a client
-that connects while another session is open takes it over, so a client that
-exited without ending its session needs no restart. The listener runs until
-SIGINT or SIGTERM and does not stop when stdin closes. See

-## Serve an environment manifest
-
-`rea environment-serve <manifest.json> --evidence <capture.json>
-[--replay-only] [--host H] [--port N]` serves an environment manifest
-projected by `inspect-analysis-view` as an agent environment: an MCP server at
-`/mcp`, the environment card at `/.well-known/agent-env.json`, and a
-`/agentenv` data plane. The manifest's `parent_evidence_id` must equal the
-evidence file's `evidence_id`; otherwise the command refuses with
-`invalid_request` before binding. Before binding it derives the
-`environment-state` view of the capture with the manifest's `template_rules`,
-as `inspect-analysis-view` would, and serves from it: read tools whose views
-are state-backed answer from a live state, write tools are not served, and
-`/agentenv` serves `data/reset`, `data/add` and `data/get`. When the state
-cannot be derived, or its catalog exceeds the discovery reservation, it logs a
-warning with the error code and message and serves replay; `--replay-only` serves replay without deriving. In replay every
-manifest tool replays the retained capture records it cites and `/agentenv`
-answers every method with JSON-RPC `-32601`. The stopped document's `state`
-member is `{"served": true, "evidence_id": …}`,
-`{"served": false, "reason": "replay-only"}` or
-`{"served": false, "reason": "unavailable", "code": …, "message": …}`; see
-[serve from the state](agent-environments.md#serve-from-the-state).
-
-```sh
-rea environment-serve manifest.json --evidence capture.json --port 8765
-```
-
-`--host` and `--port` resolve like `rea mcp --http`: flags, then `MCP_HOST` and
-`MCP_PORT`, then `127.0.0.1` and an ephemeral port. `ENVIRONMENT_NAME` renames
-the served environment; set but blank, it is refused as `configuration_invalid`
-like a blank `MCP_HOST`. The bound URL is written to stderr as one JSON log line
-(`"msg":"MCP transport listening"`). See
-[agent environments](agent-environments.md) for what the state and replay
-return and do not establish.
-
-## Export an environment bundle
-
-`rea environment-export <manifest.json> --evidence <capture.json> <dir>
-[--package-tarball <path>] [--name <override>]` writes the same manifest and
-capture pair as a bundle folder the agentenv framework runs with
-`agent-env run <dir>`. It reads each file once, authenticates and cross-checks
-the pair with the same checks as `environment-serve`, checks the bundle name,
-then prepares the state under that name as the bundle's server will at startup
-to predict what the bundle serves (replay when the state is unavailable),
-copies the bytes it authenticated, refuses to write into a directory that
-exists and is not empty, and never overwrites a file.
-
-```sh
-rea environment-export manifest.json --evidence capture.json ./grafana-example --json
-```
-
-The folder holds a `README.md` with the bundle's provenance, an env folder
-`envs/<name>/` with a `Dockerfile` that installs this exact `rea-agents`
-version and serves the copied `manifest.json` and `evidence.json` (written
-with mode `0600` on POSIX; Windows retains inherited ACLs) with
-`environment-serve` (from the state by default), a Python verifier under
-`artifacts/check_<name>/` that checks the served tool count and one served
-answer, and the smoke task `tasks/smoke.json`. `--package-tarball` copies a packed `rea-agents`
-tarball into the env folder and installs it instead of the registry package,
-which is how the hosted lane proves a checkout rather than a release. `--name`
-replaces the manifest's kebab-case name as the env folder and env id; a device

 Cleanup uncertainty does not authorize signaling unrelated processes.
 
-Main-process IPC recording keeps original-function removal for `on` and `once`
-registrations and records a fired `once` callback once. Native Node.js owns
-`once` registration, firing and callable dispatch as well as removal order and
-traversal, including listeners registered by removal observers;
-the hook translates only its own recording wrappers at the removal boundary.
-Wrapper metadata uses weak keys and does not retain removed registrations.
-Wrapper metadata operations, private collection methods and traversal constructors are captured
-before target startup; later replacement of their global bindings does not
-change listener registration or removal.
-
-Native runtimes differ in whether `once` consults callback `.call` or `.apply`.
-The hook observes actual callback entry without imposing another runtime's
-property reads or argument-list representation. Application methods selected by
-native dispatch keep their original receiver and argument-list object; opaque
-methods produce a `custom-call` or `custom-apply` observation gap when callback
-execution cannot be established.
-
-If native wrapper creation or registration-method lookup could expose private
-instrumentation through an application getter, setter or Proxy, registration
-stays native and unwrapped. The `once-metadata` observation gap identifies that
-unobserved registration attempt; it does not prove registration or delivery. The original callback,
-metadata writes and native method receivers are preserved, including when
-registration fails. Later registrations resume normal observation. Non-callable
-`call`/`apply` properties produce failed observation gaps when native dispatch reads
-them; callback entry is not fabricated.
-
-An `on` listener's application-defined `.apply` receives the original argument-list
-object unchanged. Borrowing the exposed method preserves its dynamic receiver.
-Because that method owns argument interpretation and may not
-invoke the callback, the hook records a bounded `ipc-observation-gap` timeline
-entry with the registered channel rather than an IPC invocation. Its empty
-`argument_shapes` means unobserved arguments, not a zero-argument callback;
-callback execution and result remain unknown. Coverage and retention include
-these gaps even when their individual records are dropped. Normal native
-dispatch continues to record actual invocation frames. Evidence snapshots copy
-retained arrays and counters without invoking application iterators or Array
-species.
-
-Listener-chain recognition distinguishes owned, unowned and unknown metadata.
-Data links may be inherited; absence is established only after completing the
-bounded prototype lookup. Exhausting either walk, encountering a getter or seeing a Proxy leaves
-ownership unknown. The hook preserves native registration without adding another
-recording wrapper and retains a `listener-chain` observation gap after successful
-registration. This gap does not prove IPC delivery. An existing inner recording
-wrapper can still report its actual invocation; otherwise callback activity
-remains unobserved. Setter-only properties have a known undefined read.
-Data-descriptor parsing is shared with removal normalization.
-
-This does not establish complete JavaScript function introspection equivalence.
-Caller-defined `.listener` properties can change the identity exposed by
-`listeners()` and meta-events; accessors and Proxy metadata are not followed for
-wrapper recognition. Re-registering a raw recording wrapper on another channel
-retains the original registration's channel attribution.
-Mutating `.listener` on a raw recording wrapper can also prevent removal through
-application decorators that bypass the hook's removal methods. When a removal
-request reaches the hook's methods and its registration order is known, private
-callback ownership preserves removal by the original function and the newest
-matching registration when public metadata is changed or deleted. Native removal
-still determines getter execution, exceptions and removal meta-events.
-
-If registration or removal methods differ from the Node methods captured at hook
-initialization, the hook leaves listener callbacks unwrapped and records a
-`listener-registration` observation gap. The application keeps its original
-callback and receiver; callback execution remains unobserved. This comparison
-assumes Node's EventEmitter prototype has not itself been globally decorated
-before hook initialization. The provider loads the hook before the application
-and excludes `NODE_OPTIONS` from the child environment.
-
-An opaque later listener or unsupported emitter state can prevent proof of
-removal order. The hook then delegates removal
-to the native method and records a `listener-removal` gap rather than claiming
-which registration was removed. These gaps are distinct from dropped records
-and do not establish IPC delivery or successful removal.
-
-### Target fuse prerequisites
-
-Active scenario capture requires that the target Electron executable honors Node CLI inspector flags (`--inspect` or `--remote-debugging-port`) so that Playwright can establish its DevTools protocol session.
-
-When an Electron executable explicitly disables the `EnableNodeCliInspectArguments` fuse (or removes the capability), `capture-electron-scenario` fails immediately before process launch with an `AnalysisUnsupportedTargetError` ("unsupported_target") rather than waiting for the startup deadline. For targets with disabled inspector fuses, use passive CDP inspection via `inspect_electron_page` or run against an unrestricted development binary with the extracted `app.asar`.

A spawned process starts paused so scripts can load first. Closing unloads session scripts and detaches. If a spawn remains paused, REA resumes it only after script cleanup or session detach confirms the instrumentation is released; if both cleanup paths fail, the target stays paused and the cleanup error is retained. REA never kills the target. MCP sessions end with the server process. The one-shot CLI command `instrument-with-frida` accepts one inline script or script file, observes messages for a bounded duration, and returns Evidence with the source hash and captured messages.
 
-For state and capture-coverage checks, pass `{"session_id":"SESSION_ID","detail":"summary"}` to `frida_session_status`. Each call reads the observed session state and retains the complete observation. The reply is an `inspect_analysis_view` Evidence summary with the session identity, state, scripts, `messages_retained`, and `messages_truncated`; message payloads remain in its `parent_evidence_id`. The count covers retained queued messages, not every target event. Omitted `detail` or `detail=complete` preserves the existing complete reply.

To use the existing CLI `inspect-analysis-view`, extract that record into a standalone Evidence JSON file and select it as an Evidence-file source with `view={"kind":"summary"}`. Reading retained Evidence does not refresh a live session or verify a process after exit or PID reuse.

 Failed startup cleanup retains acquired Frida handles, including a paused spawn that has not attached, for later cleanup retries. Its remote connection stays leased until session detach and target resume complete. CLI commands await provider cleanup before returning; MCP retains these resources for cleanup when its server closes. Server shutdown stops admitting new Frida operations and waits for admitted startup, discovery, and queued work before releasing their resources. A failed cleanup remains reported and can be retried by closing the server again, rather than treating an unregistered session as fully released.
 
-Frida scripts execute inside the selected target with that process's memory, filesystem, and network authority. Local device lookup waits 1000 ms. This release has no runtime override for that lookup; another REA timeout does not raise it. Remote endpoints do not use that lookup. Message capture is bounded to 16 MiB and reports truncation. Metadata, type, and text field caps, and the JSON node cap, are also fixed. Evidence names a cap when that observation actually dropped data. This release has no runtime override for those capture caps. Script source is not stored in Evidence; its selected path and SHA-256 digest are. For a file, `source_sha256` identifies the original selected bytes. Invalid UTF-8 continues to use replacement decoding; Evidence then records that limitation and `raw_result.source_representation` with the encoding, decoding mode, and `loaded_source_sha256` of the UTF-8 string passed to Frida. Valid UTF-8 files and inline scripts do not need this additional representation fact. Evidence retains non-authentication target selection such as device or endpoint, mode, program or PID, and spawn arguments. Authentication values remain excluded. Results report the observed session and messages, while unsupported platform metadata remains unknown. A request cancelled before a Frida operation starts has no provider effects. If cancellation arrives during a native Frida call, REA waits for that call to return, then closes any session it created and returns the observed session as a partial observation. A cancelled script load on an existing session releases only its new script before queued operations can run; the session and previously loaded scripts remain available. If cancellation is observed when the native call returns, partial Evidence retains the source identity and captured messages even if that call rejects, including messages emitted during awaited cleanup. The caller's cancellation reason remains primary and a native rejection is retained as a sanitized diagnostic. A failure already observed before cleanup stays primary if cancellation arrives during cleanup. The cancellation cutoff is REA's observation of native completion, rather than a claim about unobservable native event order. `script_id` is REA's load-attempt identity. When creation rejects without returning a handle, `script_cleanup: "no_handle"` means REA acquired no handle to unload; it does not prove that the engine performed no work. Once the provider commits a successful load, later request cancellation does not unload that script; use `unload_frida_script` to release it. If script cleanup fails, the script remains owned and a paused target cannot resume until the pending instrumentation is released. Queued script loads, resumes, and unloads check cancellation before dispatching native effects. Cancellation Evidence separately reports whether a target resume was observed, whether instrumentation cleanup completed, and that final target liveness remains unknown. REA does not kill the target. Remote discovery retains its observations and reports a separate cleanup error if the temporary connection cannot be removed.

-
-## MCP and selected facts
-
-For a standalone pack, call `open_binary` with its absolute path, then
-`inspect_artifact` with `{"detail":"summary"}`. The complete inspection and its
-nested inventory stay in the session. Use the summary's

-available rows and an empty array selects none. Pagination follows the filtered
-canonical order. Multiple occurrences may share one content ID.
-
-Views reuse authenticated immutable inventory facts and lazy lookup indexes;

-
-## Coverage and limits
-
-PCK summaries expose root format metadata, available graph counts,
-`available_hash_status_counts`, and `source_coverage`. Inventory pages preserve
-producer coverage alongside page coverage. `source_complete` means all declared
-retained graph rows are available; it does not establish that an encrypted or
-otherwise unknown directory was examined. Missing matches in unknown coverage
-are not evidence of absence.
-
-Encrypted directories retain their header and declared file count with unknown
-entry coverage. Individually encrypted members retain directory metadata with
-unknown content identity; REA does not decrypt them. Sparse bundles likewise
-retain header facts with unknown member coverage. Extraction refuses an
-unreadable directory or encrypted member. This capability does not recover
-keys, decode Godot resources, decompile GDScript bytecode, analyze signals,
-apply patch/removal entries or execute targets.
-
-Readable logical member bytes, including repeated physical ranges, share the ZIP
-archive expansion policy: at most the larger of 256 MiB or 500 times the PCK's
-encoded byte span. Embedded carrier bytes do not enlarge that budget. The full
-directory is checked before any member is yielded, hashed or extracted. Encrypted
-members are not read and do not consume this plaintext-work allowance. Small
-bounded aliases remain valid. This is a processing/output resource bound, separate
-from the directory metadata retention budget and format validity.

-`inspect_gpu_code_objects` answers which GPU targets and kernel declarations a
-local artifact carries. It reads ELF/PE sections, standalone CUDA fatbins,
-CUBIN/PTX and Clang HIP bundles, including CCOB v1/v2/v3. It neither executes the
-artifact nor invokes CUDA/ROCm tools. GPU execution, SASS disassembly and host
-launch correlation remain outside coverage.
-
-Start with a target inventory:
-
-```json
-{ "path": "/artifacts/library.so", "view": { "collection": "targets" } }
-```
-
-Target rows aggregate inventoried payloads and distinguish an unrequested kernel
-analysis from a complete or partial one. `objects` pages expose exact object
-IDs, compression declarations and encoded/header locations. Fields, exact
-filters, batch IDs and stable pagination select the facts delivered to the
-caller. IDs are positional within the recorded artifact SHA-256. Selecting `object_ids`
-in a new inspection requires `expected_sha256` from that inventory; a changed
-file is rejected before parsing selected payloads.
-
-`target` is the inventory declaration used for selection; `payload_target` is
-the independently observed inner declaration when available. Object pages keep
-both values, their kind, `target_consistency` and inspection coverage even with
-selected fields.
-Conflicting base architectures retain both values, mark object/report/target
-coverage partial and annotate the affected kernels. CUBIN flags establish a base
-architecture: `base-only` explicitly leaves feature-profile agreement unknown,
-including `a` variants. A standalone declaration is `single-source`, and
-unexamined payloads remain `unexamined`. An exact AMDGPU target is normalized at
-its note owner for comparison with a Clang bundle declaration; raw values remain
-intact. Unresolved feature comparisons stay `unknown`.
-
-`cuda_target_header` retains the OS ABI, normalized raw `e_flags` and exact
-header location. CUDA OS ABI `0x33` and the observed `0x41` flags layout use
-different architecture fields; they are decoded at one ABI-aware owner.
-Unrecognized layouts keep the header and an unknown target instead of
-inventing an SM label. Header provenance is validated against its CUBIN object.
-
-Target filters select inventory declarations. An unselected payload's inner
-target remains unexamined; an empty filtered result does not establish that
-no enclosed code declares that target. Discovering every inner declaration
-requires decoding those payloads.
-
-HIP IDs with one or two separators before the architecture retain the declared
-target. If a recognized AMDGPU bundle ID does not expose a target, the same
-bounded note-discovery owner used for standalone AMDGPU files establishes it
-before filtering. Those directory/note reads share the inspection work budget;
-successive queries can select the target returned by inventory.
-
-Decode selected targets and return a kernel page in the same call:
-
-```json
-{
-  "path": "/artifacts/library.so",
-  "analysis": "kernels",
-  "targets": ["sm_100"],
-  "view": {

-      "parameters",
-      "registers",
-      "shared_bytes"
-    ]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Only selected payloads are decoded. Other inventory entries remain present with
-`not-selected` states, and overall payload coverage remains partial. An empty
-kernel page proves no matching retained fact; it does not establish that an
-unexamined payload contains no kernel. Missing fields remain null.
-
-Kernel representations have different meanings:
-
-- PTX reports parameter declarations and virtual registers. Shared bytes cover
-  supported static declarations inside that entry; they do not establish module
-  shared memory, dynamic allocation or physical device resources.
-  Scalar register declarations count each bare or percent-prefixed name and
-  each parameterized range. Unsupported declaration forms or overflowing totals
-  retain an unknown count and partial decoding coverage. Unsupported parameter
-  layouts and unknown shared-memory declarations likewise retain their known
-  facts, explicit limitations and partial coverage through retained pages.
-- CUBIN identifies CUDA entry symbols and reads numeric `nv.info` records and
-  native section declarations. Global register declarations also cover compiler
-  versions that leave the older text-section register field empty.
-- AMDGPU reads v3+ MessagePack notes. Argument counts include hidden ABI arguments
-  when present; SGPR/VGPR counts and fixed group/private segment sizes retain
-  their declared meanings. Legacy YAML metadata remains unsupported.
-
-Each selected PTX payload becomes a retained UTF-8 text artifact with a SHA-256,
-byte length and source coordinates. It is omitted from compact replies. Read it
-with `inspect_analysis_view` and the parent Evidence ID returned by the compact
-receipt:
-
-```json
-{
-  "source": { "kind": "retained-evidence", "evidence_id": "ev_..." },
-  "view": {
-    "kind": "gpu-code-objects",

-    "object_id": "...",
-    "offset": 0,
-    "limit": 4096
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Text offsets use UTF-16 code units and must fall on Unicode scalar boundaries.
-Complete Evidence retains the selected text; `export_evidence_bundle` provides
-its portable source record. Historical pages never reopen the input file.
-
-A location with `container_id: null` uses original file offsets. Other locations
-use that inventoried object's decoded byte coordinates. Follow its parent,
-encoded location and digest to trace decompressed metadata back to a native
-section and the original file. Decoded offsets are never presented as physical
-file offsets.
-
-The CLI uses the same service and contracts:
-
-```sh
-rea inspect-gpu-code-objects /artifacts/library.so --analysis kernels \
-  --targets '["sm_100"]' --detail summary \
-  --view '{"collection":"kernels","names":["kernel_name"]}' \
-  --evidence_output /analysis/library-gpu.evidence.json --json
-```
-
-A full-file SHA-256 always streams every byte. Inventory then reads bounded
-native directories and bundle headers; CCOB requires decompression to discover
-its inner directory. Kernel analysis reads selected payloads. `bytes_read`
-includes hashing and subsequent descriptor reads, so this is not a header-only
-hashing workflow.
-
-CUDA raw LZ4 blocks and Zstd, and CCOB zlib/Zstd are supported. Unknown versions
-or codecs retain declarations with explicit limitations. Lengths are checked
-before decoding, and CCOB's truncated MD5 is verified against decoded bytes.
-Resource limits are one active inspection, 128 MiB per input/output buffer,
-512 MiB of payload input, decoded output and AMD note-read work per inspection,
-and 16 MiB retained facts including selected PTX. Payload work is reserved before
-reading or allocating; a capacity refusal does not reread an aliased payload.
-Native tables and decoded section names each have a 16 MiB structural budget;
-AMDGPU ELF note discovery admits at most 8 MiB of source note bytes, with
-bounded depth and container/string allocations. Standalone AMD targets are read
-from those notes before target selection; selected kernel analysis reuses the
-same parsed declarations. Pages have a
-1 MiB response budget. Resource refusals and interrupted observations preserve
-known facts and explicit uncertainty.
-
-CUDA ELF parsing additionally shares a 262,144 record/symbol visit limit,
-128 MiB of cumulative metadata section reads, and a 16 MiB serialized-size
-accounting budget for temporary index facts. These limits are checked before
-index growth; they are not claims about JavaScript heap size. Equivalent scoped
-metadata byte ranges and repeated equal register declarations are coalesced;
-conflicting values remain unknown. Parameter sections are parsed once per ELF.
-
-Missing CUBIN symbol tables or unresolved section names produce `partial`
-object, report and target coverage even when some kernel facts survive. AMD note
-failures preserve earlier successfully parsed declarations and the original
-failure reason. Standalone PTX recognition tries a small header first, then
-continues within the existing 16 MiB text budget when leading comments or
-whitespace obscure its directives; admitted full-file probe bytes are reused.

-`return_types`, `field_types`, `parameter_types` and `code_gen_modules`. Every returned row includes
-its source `index`, scoped by artifact SHA-256 and collection. All collections
-accept batch `indices` and `fields`; collections whose rows have a `name` also
-accept exact `names`. Types also accept `image_indices`, `namespaces` and
-`declaring_types`; methods, fields, properties and events accept
-`declaring_types`. Parameters accept exact `method_indices`, so a batch of
-method indices retrieves their parameters without reading the entire parameter
-table. `parameter_types` accepts the same `method_indices`, resolved through the
-retained `parameters` owners; Evidence without `parameters` refuses that filter. Filters intersect, duplicate indices are returned once, and
-rows retain metadata order. An empty filter selects no rows; `fields: []`
-returns indices only. Omitted fields return the complete selected rows.
-
-For example, after resolving a type index, retrieve selected method facts:
-
-```json
-{
-  "source": {
-    "kind": "retained-evidence",
-    "evidence_id": "<parent_evidence_id>"
-  },
-  "view": {
-    "kind": "il2cpp-metadata",
-    "collection": "methods",
-    "declaring_types": [1555],
-    "names": ["SendMessage"],
-    "fields": ["name", "declaring_type"]
-  }
-}
-```
-
-After finding method indices, parameters can be requested directly:
-
-```json
-{
-  "source": {
-    "kind": "retained-evidence",
-    "evidence_id": "<parent_evidence_id>"
-  },
-  "view": {
-    "kind": "il2cpp-metadata",
-    "collection": "parameters",
-    "method_indices": [9785],
-    "fields": ["name", "method"],
-    "limit": 64
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Historical Evidence that predates these member collections remains queryable.
-A missing collection has an unknown (`null`) summary count, and requesting it
-reports that it was not collected; it is never presented as an empty inventory. The same holds for Evidence that predates binary linking: its summary
-omits `binary`, and `method_addresses`, `method_address_states`,
-`return_types`, `field_types` and `parameter_types` counts are `null`.
-Existing empty collections retain a zero count. Full Evidence is preserved.
-
-`offset` counts matching rows, not source indices. `limit` defaults to 64;
-`coverage.next_offset` continues that filtered page. Coverage describes retained
-metadata facts only; runtime behavior and correspondence to native code remain
-unknown. Each view preserves the parent Evidence link, artifact identity and
-limitations. Queries work after the source file is removed. Select
-`detail: "complete"` to return every row inline within the separate MCP response
-budget.
-
-## CLI
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-il2cpp-metadata /absolute/path/global-metadata.dat --json
-```
-
-The CLI defaults to complete Evidence. For compact delivery, explicitly preserve
-the full Evidence in a new file:
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-il2cpp-metadata /absolute/path/global-metadata.dat \
-  --detail summary --evidence_output /tmp/metadata-evidence.json --json
-jq -c '{source: {kind: "inline", evidence: .records[0]}, view: {kind: "il2cpp-metadata", collection: "methods", indices: [9785], fields: ["name", "declaring_type"]}}' \
-  /tmp/metadata-evidence.json > /tmp/metadata-query.json
-rea inspect-analysis-view /tmp/metadata-query.json --json
-```
-
-Use the exported Evidence with the CLI's inline Evidence source format described
-in [CLI and Evidence](cli.md#run-a-command). Compact delivery requires
-`--evidence_output`; existing files are never overwritten. The full export
-preserves every decoded row for subsequent queries without the original file.
-
-`--binary PATH` links method addresses and `--architecture arm64|amd64` selects
-the slice of a universal Mach-O.
-
-## Observations
-
-The result contains:
-
-- `artifact`: path, SHA-256 and byte length;
-- `magic`: unsigned little-endian header signature (`0xFAB11BAF`, delivered as a JSON number);
-- `metadata_version`: `24`, `27`, `29`, `31` or `39`;
-- `index_widths`: the serialized widths (1, 2 or 4 bytes) of
-  `type_definition`, `generic_container`, `parameter` and `type` indices, and
-  `type_width_source`. Version 39 derives the type index width from the
-  `interface-offsets-record` or the `type-definition-record`; versions 24, 27, 29
-  and 31 always use 4-byte indices (`fixed-width-version`);
-- `sections`: all version-specific header sections in header order, each with `offset`, `size`
-  and `count`. Versions 24 to 31 record no counts, so `count` is `null` and
-  record counts come from the section sizes;
-- `images`: `name`, `type_start` and `type_count`;
-- `types`: `name`, `namespace`, `method_start`, `method_count`,
-  `nested_type_start`, `nested_type_count` and `declaring_type`;
-- `methods`: `name` and `declaring_type`;
-- `fields`, `properties` and `events`: `name` and `declaring_type`, the type
-  whose member range holds the row (`-1` when none does);
-- `parameters`: `name` and `method`, the method whose parameter range holds it;
-- `string_literals`: managed string literals as `value`, or `value_base64` with
-  the exact bytes when they are not valid UTF-8;
-- `limitations`.
-
-A row's position in its collection is its metadata index, so `type_start`,
-`method_start` and `declaring_type` refer to positions in `types` or `methods`.
-`nested_type_start` instead indexes the metadata's `nestedTypes` table, which is
-not returned; each nested type's `declaring_type` carries that relationship.
-A type's `declaring_type` is derived from the `nestedTypes` section and is `-1`
-for top-level types. The start of an empty range can retain the original value
-`-1`.
-
-The complete inventory of a large game is several megabytes and can exceed
-the MCP response budget. Summary delivery and filtered, projected pages keep
-unneeded rows out of agent context without discarding the source Evidence.
-
-## Native method addresses
-
-`binary_path` names the native binary built with the metadata: macOS
-`GameAssembly.dylib` (Mach-O), Windows `GameAssembly.dll` (64-bit PE) or
-Android `libil2cpp.so` (64-bit ELF, AArch64 or x86-64). A
-universal Mach-O needs `binary_architecture` (`arm64` or `amd64`); a thin binary
-rejects it. The file is read, never loaded or executed.
-
-A position-independent `libil2cpp.so` stores zero in most pointer slots and
-keeps the value in `R_AARCH64_RELATIVE` or `R_X86_64_RELATIVE` relocations
-(`DT_RELA`). The reader writes those values into a private copy before
-searching it, so addresses are the link-time addresses and RVAs are relative to
-the first loaded segment. Android packed
-relocations (`DT_ANDROID_RELA`) are refused. No target code is executed.
-
-The binary's `Il2CppCodeRegistration` points to one `Il2CppCodeGenModule` per
-assembly image. Each module record starts with its module name, its method
-pointer count and its method pointer array. The reader finds, for every metadata
-image, the single record whose name pointer reaches that image's name string and
-whose count equals the image's method count. It then requires exactly one
-`codeGenModulesCount`/`codeGenModules` pair that lists exactly those records. No
-symbols are needed, so stripped builds work. A method's token row id selects its
-slot in the module's method pointer array.
-
-Module records establish names through their declared NUL-terminated string pointers. NUL/0xFF padding, spaces, Unicode and suffix-shared storage are supported. A pointer to a longer string does not match just its suffix; a pointer directly into a shared suffix may name it. Exact reversed UTF-8 matching avoids rescanning the file for every name and retains duplicate-name owners until module records resolve them. A contributor investigated a Linux
-`GameAssembly.so` from Unity 2023.2.13f1 whose static registration was not located. When no static pair is resolved on x86-64, the reader searches executable ranges for bytes consistent with RIP-relative LEA/MOV references to module-array candidates. Exactly one referenced array candidate must remain. `code_gen_modules_field` is then `null`, and Evidence is **inferred**: instruction boundaries, the absence of a static registration elsewhere, and runtime use were not verified. The module records and slots themselves remain file observations. Static-table associations are **derived**. Otherwise the result is `code-registration-not-found`.
-
-The binary/metadata pair is caller-selected. Name/count/token agreement is structural evidence, not a cryptographic same-build proof. File-offset locations refer to the primary metadata artifact; linked virtual addresses refer to `binary.artifact`. Both SHA-256 identities remain available in compact native pages as `artifact` and `binary_source`.
-
-Contributor-reported verification (not all rerun by the follow-up): macOS arm64 and x86_64 slices from Unity 2021.3.45f2, 2022.3.30f1, 2022.3.62f3 and
-6000.0.84f1 against dSYM symbols; Android arm64 and x86-64 from 2022.3.62f3
-against `libil2cpp.sym.so`; Windows x64 from 2023.2.13f1 (metadata version 29,
-the MIT-licensed game Between Two Worlds 1.0.5, `GameAssembly.dll` SHA-256
-`a3ae7f6ecd1f671297b7d98d12713ef024062d93cd7a4205298102656c93b67a`) against
-Il2CppDumper, where all 43,198 linked methods share an address with a
-same-named Il2CppDumper method and identical code folding groups 10,448 methods
-into 1,735 addresses. A macOS x86_64 build from Unity 2020.3.49f1 (metadata version 27, which Il2CppDumper reads as 27.1) links 10,555 methods, all at addresses where Il2CppDumper names the same method; its other addresses are generic instances. A build from Unity 2021.1.28f1 (also read as 27.1) gives the same result: 10,345 methods linked, every address named the same by Il2CppDumper, and its other 3,486 addresses generic instances.
-
-These checks compare addresses with symbols or with another static tool. They
-do not establish that a linked address is the code the game runs (a runtime may
-patch, hook or replace it), that builds from other Unity versions, compilers or
-obfuscators link the same way, or that a method without an address has no code:
-generic instances, adjustor thunks and invokers are not linked, and an
-`unknown` row was not looked up at all.
-
-The result adds:
-
-- `binary`: artifact identity, `format`, `architecture`, `image_base`,
-  `code_gen_modules_field` (the address of `codeGenModulesCount`, or `null` as
-  described above), `code_gen_modules_array` (the module pointer array) and
-  `code_gen_modules` (`image`, record `address`, `method_pointer_count`);
-- `method_addresses`: one row per method index with `state`, `address` and
-  `rva` (address minus `image_base`), both hexadecimal strings. `state` is
-  `code` when the module slot holds an unambiguously mapped executable address, `no-body` when an observed slot is zero,
-  as for abstract, extern and most generic methods, and `unknown` when no type
-  range in any image holds the method or a symbol relocation leaves its slot unresolved.
-  `address` and `rva` are `null` unless `state` is `code`. The summary counts
-  each state in `counts.method_address_states`. Ghidra seeds are written only
-  for `code` rows.
-
-- `return_types`, `field_types` and `parameter_types`: one row per method,
-  field and parameter index with `type`, the index into the binary's
-  `Il2CppType` table, and `name`, rendered from that table: C# keywords for
-  primitives (`int`, `string`, `object`), `Namespace.Outer+Inner` for type
-  definitions, `T[]`, `T[,]` and `T*`, generic instances as
-  `System.Collections.Generic.List<string>` and generic parameters by their
-  metadata name (`TKey`). A trailing `&` marks a by-reference type. `name` is
-  `null` only for type index `-1`.
-
-`binary` also records `types_field` and `types_count`: the address of
-`Il2CppMetadataRegistration.typesCount` and its value. That record is found as
-the single place whose `fieldOffsetsCount` and `typeDefinitionsSizesCount` both
-equal the metadata type-definition count and whose type table is file mapped.
-
-Without `binary_path`, `binary` is `null` and the four binary collections are
-empty in the complete producer report to indicate unrequested observations. Their summary counts, including state counts, are `null`, and native page requests report unavailable observations. This does not establish an empty native inventory. Missing native fields in historical Evidence remain unknown too.
-
-For metadata version 27, type names are `null` and only type indices are
-reported: versions 27.0 to 27.2 share that header number but place the
-Il2CppType byref flag in different bits, so a rendered name could gain or lose
-`&` without warning.
-
-The builds checked are listed after the module search rules above.

-| `slice-not-found`                 | unsupported | The requested slice is absent, or a thin binary was given an architecture.                        |
-| `unsupported-pointer-encoding`    | unsupported | Mach-O chained fixups or Android packed (APS2) ELF relocations; pointers not decoded.             |
-| `malformed-container`             | input error | The container headers are damaged.                                                                |
-| `code-gen-modules-not-found`      | input error | An image has no module record; often a binary from a different build.                             |
-| `ambiguous-code-gen-module`       | input error | More than one module record matches an image.                                                     |
-| `code-registration-not-found`     | input error | No unique module table or executable-byte array candidate was resolved.                           |

-| `invalid-type`                    | input error | A type index or `Il2CppType` record is out of range, unmapped or malformed.                       |
-| `unsupported-type-kind`           | unsupported | A valid type kind has no implemented rendering.                                                   |
-
-Format and selection failures name `binary_path`; capacity refusals remain typed resource errors. Failed linking preserves the metadata source identity, validated counts, selected binary path/architecture and its SHA-256 when observed, plus prior producer observations. It never publishes an incomplete native table as complete. The binary input is bounded to1GiB.
-
-Scans yield cooperatively in bounded batches. Name-address retention and reverse-trie construction are each limited to65,536 entries/nodes and fallback module-array candidates to64 (`native-index-capacity`); exceeding capacity does not prove absence. Rendered type text has a64MiB UTF-8 cache-workspace guard, separate from the64MiB encoded-report admission, and64 nested rendering frames (`native-type-text-capacity` / `type-nesting-capacity`). Genuine cycles are malformed; unsupported type kinds are explicit coverage failures. Native row/text admission runs before allocation or retention. Unused generic parameter names are read on demand from the same stable metadata snapshot. There is no cross-inspection file cache; validated immutable Evidence is reused for session views.
-
-ELF RELATIVE writes into zero-fill are kept as a private virtual-pointer overlay. Unresolved supported-width symbol relocations, including RELA PLT entries, remain unknown; stored zeros never establish no-body. COPY, TLS descriptor, REL, packed APS2 and other unsupported relocation encodings fail closed. Input bytes are unchanged.
-
-Native address queries batch exact64-bit hexadecimal `addresses` and `states` (`code`, `no-body`, `unknown`), intersecting indices and pagination. Numerically equal address spellings match; original row indices and every shared-body alternative survive:
-

-
-## Ghidra function names
-
-The CLI can turn a linked report into a
-[`REA_GHIDRA_SEED_FILE`](installation.md) so Ghidra names every IL2CPP method
-before auto-analysis:
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-il2cpp-metadata global-metadata.dat --binary libil2cpp.so \
-  --ghidra-seeds il2cpp-seeds.tsv --json > /dev/null
-export REA_GHIDRA_SEED_FILE="$PWD/il2cpp-seeds.tsv"
-```
-
-Each linked method becomes one `function` seed named `Namespace.Type$$Method`
-(nested types joined with `.`, whitespace replaced by `_`), the Il2CppDumper
-convention. Seeds are at `seed-base + rva`. The default base is where Ghidra's
-loaders place the binary: `0x100000` for an ELF linked at 0, and the link base
-for Mach-O and PE; `--seed-base 0x...` overrides it for a different import. When
-identical code folding gives several methods one address, the first method names
-the function and a `# folded <address> <kept> also <names>` comment line after
-the seeds lists the others, so the kept name is visibly one of several. Ghidra still names a seeded function that is a thunk after its
-target. The file is atomically published with exclusive creation; an existing destination is never replaced. Failed staging retains its cleanup owner for retry. Source digest and link/seed-base comments make the mapping inspectable. Unknown slots are skipped separately from observed no-body slots. `--seed-base` requires `--ghidra-seeds`; overflowing rebased addresses and names/outputs beyond the existing Ghidra protocol limits (2,000 name characters,32MiB file,1,000,000 entries) are refused before publication. The CLI and reusable service use one formatter and owned output workflow; ordinary MCP inspection remains read-only.
-
-## Failures
-
-A file whose magic is not `0xFAB11BAF` fails as an unsupported target with
-`unrecognized-magic`. The file may be encrypted or may not be IL2CPP metadata.
-A version other than 24, 27, 29, 31 or 39 fails as an unsupported target with
-`unsupported-version`.
-
-Damaged metadata returns an input error (`invalid_format`) whose
-message names one reason:
-
-| Reason                    | Meaning                                                                                                          |
-| ------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `truncated-header`        | The file is shorter than the header.                                                                             |
-| `unexpected-header-size`  | `stringLiterals.offset` is not the header size: 264 bytes for version 24, 256 for 27, 29 and 31, 380 for 39.     |
-| `section-out-of-bounds`   | A section extends beyond the file, or a non-empty section starts inside the header.                              |
-| `section-overlap`         | Two sections overlap. Zero-size sections are exempt and gaps are allowed.                                        |
-| `record-size-mismatch`    | A section size does not divide into its records, or the record size differs from the one the index widths imply. |
-| `type-index-width`        | The record used to derive the type index width implies no 1, 2 or 4 byte width.                                  |
-| `index-out-of-range`      | A serialized index or range points outside its target collection.                                                |
-| `nested-type-conflict`    | A type is listed as nested in two types, in itself, or in a cycle of declaring types.                            |
-| `declaring-type-mismatch` | A method inside a type's method range names a different type, or a method lies outside its type's range.         |
-| `image-range-overlap`     | Two images claim the same type definitions.                                                                      |
-| `invalid-string`          | A name index does not start a string, or the name is unterminated or not valid UTF-8.                            |
-
-A version field that disagrees with the file's layout, for example a version
-39 file relabeled as 29, usually surfaces as `unexpected-header-size` or
-`record-size-mismatch`.
-
-Two checks are stricter than the IL2CPP runtime: a name index must start a
-string, and an empty range's start must lie between -1 and the collection size.
-Every Unity-written file checked so far satisfies both; metadata rewritten by
-other tools may be rejected.
-
-An incomplete inventory is never reported as complete. Failures after a verified
-snapshot retain partial source Evidence with its SHA-256, byte length and any
-validated section row counts; these counts do not establish that names and
-relationships were decoded. A file that changes during reading and a cancelled
-request keep distinct errors. Decode checkpoints yield for cancellation, and
-close waits for active work. Each reader admits one inspection at a time.
-Resource guards bound the selected file to 256 MiB and the encoded complete
-report to 64 MiB, checking row counts before allocation and JSON/UTF-8/base64 expansion during
-decoding, before serialization. Names and identical literal spans are decoded
-once within one stable file snapshot; no filesystem results are cached across
-inspections. Ownership assignment also yields to cancellation. MCP also applies its
-[response transport budget](mcp-contracts.md); a complete report within the
-report limit can still require the summary and paging path.

-## Outside this tool
-
-- Decrypting or deobfuscating protected metadata.
-- Linking Mach-O binaries that use chained fixups, ELF images with Android
-  packed (APS2) relocations, and 32-bit images; generic method instances,
-  adjustor thunks and invokers.
-- Full method signatures beyond the rendered field, parameter and return type
-  names, generic method instances, and type names for metadata version 27.
-- Running Ghidra or another disassembler. `--ghidra-seeds` only writes a seed
-  file for [`REA_GHIDRA_SEED_FILE`](installation.md); use the
-  [native workflow](native-investigation.md) for native code.
-- Metadata versions other than 24, 27, 29, 31 and 39.
-
-Names come from the metadata file only. They do not establish which methods
-were compiled into the native binary or how they behave at runtime.
-
-## Real producer verification
-
-`npm run verify:il2cpp:metadata -- --metadata PATH` exercises a caller-supplied
-`global-metadata.dat` through the public CLI and MCP. It is opt-in, like
-`verify:pcap`, because no real game metadata ships with the repository. Normal
-inspection does not need it.
-
-The follow-up was checked against the public Cpp2IL
-[`Simple_2022_3_35` sample](https://github.com/SamboyCoding/Cpp2IL/tree/b5ad444b82267cb1e4b88b8b373c008105bdea52/TestFiles/Simple_2022_3_35):

-`2441635a7c234a1a34deccc6a9906d6f5abcbdab078a38b2bf488a52a4962c48`.
-An independent byte-layout oracle matched all 36 images, 2,468 types and 12,409
-methods. Corresponding managed DLLs independently matched names and ownership
-for 35 images, 2,463 types and 12,406 methods; the generated image has no matching
-DLL. This does not establish real-producer coverage for versions 29 or 39.
-
-Compact native summaries omit the `binary.code_gen_modules` table and keep its
-count in `counts.code_gen_modules`. Query `collection: "code_gen_modules"`
-with batch `image_indices` or source `indices`, selected `fields` and pagination.

 ## Semantics
 
 - Paths in `open_jeb_project` are resolved by the JEB process, not by REA; REA does not require the artifact to exist locally.
 - The engine caps `list_units` pages at 100; a full page is reported as `coverage: "partial"` because more units may exist. An empty remainder is `complete` only when fewer units than requested were returned.
 - When `decompile_jeb_item` omits `unit_path`, the engine implicitly selects the project's first code unit; REA reports `unit_path: null` and a limitation instead of guessing the effective unit.
-- `item_address` is a JEB code-item reference, such as a value returned by the engine's `list_code_items`. Preserve that representation and select its code unit explicitly. For the audited CE SQLite unit, the exported method reference was `sqlite3_libversion_number`; using its raw ELF symbol address did not produce a successful decompilation. File offsets, ELF virtual addresses and engine item references have different semantics. REA currently exposes unit listing, while code-item discovery remains an upstream JEB operation.
 - Engine refusals (`success: false` envelopes) are preserved as unsupported-target errors carrying the engine's own message, for example a nonexistent item address.
-- Successfully parsed client information is reused for the lifetime of the MCP connection, including when the engine omits its version. Explicit client inspection and availability probes refresh it.
 - An unreachable endpoint is a provider-availability failure with recovery guidance; REA does not retry or spawn the engine.
 
 Real-engine verification lives in the JEB lane described in [testing.md](testing.md); mock transport tests do not establish real-engine compatibility.

-# Kuna provider
-
-[Kuna](https://github.com/Noelo-Lab/kuna) is an Apache-2.0 decompiler distributed as one `kuna` executable. REA uses a `kuna` you supply. It does not download, install, update or bundle Kuna. REA verified this provider with Kuna 1.833; it accepts other releases and reports them as unverified in `rea doctor` and in each analysis profile.
-
-Kuna is static: it reads the selected image and never executes it.
-
-## Configure
-
-```bash
-export REA_KUNA_COMMAND=/absolute/path/to/kuna
-rea doctor --provider kuna
-```
-
-Select it explicitly with `--provider kuna`, MCP's `open_binary.provider_id: "kuna"`, or `REA_ANALYSIS_PROVIDER=kuna`. With Kuna and another provider configured for the same target, `auto` reports `ambiguous` instead of choosing one.
-
-Ordinary readiness cancellation returns `cancelled` (CLI SIGINT/SIGTERM exits
-130/143); an earlier recorded timeout or physical failure keeps its diagnostic.
-Completed version, hash and script observations remain in `kuna_installation`
-with `status: "partial"` and `completed_hash` when available. Typed errors carry
-this in `details.diagnostics`; doctor cleanup checks carry it in their `details`.
-Omitted fields remain unobserved; availability remains unknown until readiness
-completes. Cleanup retries keep both the observations and the exact file owner.

-
-## How answers are produced
-
-The first text or assembly request in a session looks for this target's export in the cache. `list_documents` reads the selected path without initializing analysis. Inventory, function lookup, string queries, call relationships and xrefs do not start a C export. A data-name lookup starts it only when the address is absent from the function inventory. The export is keyed by the target's SHA-256, the Kuna executable's SHA-256, its version and `--jobs`.
-
-- **Warm cache:** analysis reads reuse the verified export. A fresh server verifies its file digests once, even for concurrent first requests; that cost scales with export size.
-- **Cold cache:**
-  - REA starts `kuna decompile-project` in the background on a private copy of the target.
-  - Meanwhile, pseudocode comes from one `kuna decompile --addr` run. Name and address lookups, and listings, use the inventory the export takes with `kuna functions --json` before it decompiles. The session runs `kuna functions` itself, under `REA_KUNA_TIMEOUT_MS`, only when no export is building (an inventory-only request does not start one) or the export ends without an inventory.
-  - Requests for the same function share one run; it stops when its last waiting request is cancelled. Each run analyzes the whole image again in its own process, so one REA process runs at most as many at once as the host has cores beyond `REA_KUNA_JOBS` (at least one). Further requests wait in order, and a waiting request is answered from the export if it finishes first. A run whose stop REA cannot prove keeps its slot until `close_binary` proves it stopped.
-  - The session keeps each completed single-function text, up to 16 MiB in all with the least recently used dropped first, and answers repeats from it until the export can. After a failed export that lasts for the session.
-  - Assembly and data names wait for the export; progress notifications report the wait every ten seconds. A session does not rebuild a failed export: requests that need it fail with `retryable: false`, the export's failure, its captured Kuna output and what to change before reopening the target. A setting such as `REA_KUNA_PROJECT_TIMEOUT_MS` or `REA_KUNA_JOBS` is read when REA starts, so changing it also needs a restart. Pseudocode keeps using single-function runs.
-  - A single-function answer says so in its limitations. It lacks the export's whole-program prototypes, so a later request can return different text for the same function.
-
-Pseudocode, assembly, `analyze_function` and data-name answers record where their text came from in `raw_result.source`: `single-function`, or `project-export` with the cache directory. `procedure_pseudo_code` and `procedure_assembly` answers from the export also name the file, byte span and the file's SHA-256. Combined `analyze_function` answers retain both facet records in `raw_result.source.files`, each with its file, digest and byte span. Both texts come from one export; losing that project retries the complete report. Listings and procedure lookups carry no `raw_result`. Agents can open or search the export's `.c` and `.asm` there directly when that is cheaper than calling a tool per function. Text read that way is target-derived, like any decompiler output, but it bypasses the untrusted-content marker that REA's tool results carry.
-
-The background export belongs to the session. `close_binary`, or the end of a CLI command, cancels it unless another session still waits for it. A one-shot CLI decompile therefore answers from a single-function run; any request that needs the export, such as `procedure_assembly` or `analyze_function`, keeps it.
-
-The assembly label index is scanned once per export reader. Cancelling a request stops its wait without interrupting other readers; closing the session aborts and drains the shared scan before releasing its files.
-
-Regex procedure and string search uses ECMAScript Unicode matching in a cancellable worker with a five-second matching deadline and a 128 MiB worker heap. Literal matching remains the default. Cancellation or a matching deadline leaves the session available. This release has no runtime override for that deadline or heap.
-
-Single-function subprocess output and each cached source facet share a 16 MiB buffered-text capacity. Cached spans are checked before allocation; larger text remains in the local export and the error identifies the file and range. `analyze_function` initially returns the complete dossier, which can still be large; later retained views do not remove that first transfer. Prefer the individual text tools for a focused question.
-
-## Strings
-
-`list_strings` and `search_strings` share one lazy `kuna strings --json --encoding all --min-length 5 --termination any --no-xrefs` scan of the digest-checked private input. Skipping references avoids program lifting, a call graph and a C export. REA validates the input, scan policy, every row and the total before caching any facts. Encoding, character count, byte length and terminator facts must agree; supplementary UTF-8 characters count as Unicode scalars. Malformed output is an error, not an empty search. REA parses the JSON as Kuna writes it instead of buffering it, so the scan has no fixed size: Kuna writes about 290 bytes per row, 31 MB for a 20 MB Ghostty binary and 179 MB (611k rows) for an arm64 Firefox `XUL`. Rows are validated one at a time, and the first contradiction stops Kuna. Text REA does not keep is dropped unassembled; kept text and retained rows are admitted against the REA process's live heap headroom as they arrive; a refusal is a `memory` resource constraint with `retryable: false`, and closing other targets or starting REA with a larger Node.js heap makes room. String scans use the whole-program `REA_KUNA_PROJECT_TIMEOUT_MS` deadline; `REA_KUNA_TIMEOUT_MS` applies to single-function decompilation. The parsed inventory belongs to one selected target/executable profile and expires on session close; Kuna diagnostics beyond their 8 MiB buffer are retained as a failure until close, while other failures are not cached.
-
-Results keep exact u64 virtual addresses, decoded text, native encoding, terminator status and byte length including any terminator. Kuna scans mapped sections or segments for runs of at least five characters; unterminated fragments can include instruction bytes. `all` includes ASCII, UTF-8 and the engine's Latin-range UTF-16LE reading. Other text, including short strings, non-Latin wide text and UTF-16BE, can remain undiscovered. An empty result does not prove absence.
-
-Use `search_strings` for the matching rows or `list_strings` with an exact address for that location. The validated inventory is sorted by numeric address and encoding. Once cached, exact-address reads use binary search and return every encoding at that address without scanning the full inventory or retaining another lookup index. Literal and regex matching run in REA, preserving the existing case and ECMAScript Unicode semantics instead of substituting Kuna's different regex dialect. Procedure and string regex queries share one worker slot per session. Input projections are materialized only after admission, so queued queries retain no per-query inventory arrays. Close cancels and drains matching. Native metadata queries also share one admission slot, including references; a failed stop retains admission until cleanup is proven.
-
-`raw_result.strings` reports the source JSON digest/size, scanned scope, extraction policy, complete inventory count and selected count without copying unrequested text into the answer. Omit the address from `list_strings` to retrieve the complete inventory as Evidence; normal session retention and bundle export apply, including transport-capacity errors for oversized inline replies. These operations preserve their complete-result contracts and do not add paging. Function-referenced string facets in `analyze_function` remain unavailable; call `xrefs` explicitly when references to one returned string are needed.
-
-## Calls and references
-
-The first call query runs `kuna decompile-graph --functions ''`, admitting no C or assembly bodies. One validated graph and forward/reverse indexes serve later call queries and existing `get_call_graph` / `trace_call_path` workflows. Numeric u64 addresses are parsed from their original JSON tokens. Only `call` edges become callers/callees; jumps and data references retain their distinct meaning. Graph counts, edge endpoints and ordering are validated before any relationship is returned. A forwarding address may be an instruction inside a function, so it is retained separately and never promoted to a function node or call edge. Reported indirect calls make affected relationship coverage partial; no target is invented for them.
-
-`xrefs` runs native `xrefs --to ADDRESS --json` on demand. Kuna unifies forwarding aliases and suppresses edges internal to their class; REA filters to the requested address and records the excluded-row count. Duplicate source sites appear once. An empty result cannot establish the absence of references. Addresses are explicit u64 values or exact, unambiguous procedure names; Kuna has no cursor.
-
-REA parses the graph as Kuna writes it, like the string scan, so the graph has no fixed size: a 53 MB Raycast binary produces 157 MB (180k functions, 773k edges), which REA retains in about 93 MB after a whole-program walk of about a minute. Unrequested bodies are refused before any of their text is assembled, and edges are indexed as they arrive, so retained rows and their indexes are admitted against live heap headroom. Xref JSON admits at most 16 MiB before parsing. Output or Kuna diagnostics beyond a buffer are reported as a `memory` resource constraint with `retryable: false`, because the same target and executable produce the same output. The session remembers such a graph failure, so later call queries fail at once instead of repeating the whole-program walk. The graph is cached for the selected target and executable profile within one session. Xref reuse is an LRU charged by source bytes plus metadata, limited to 16 MiB and 128 entries; at most eight distinct native xref queries may be pending. Reference commands run one at a time per session and share the provider's foreground budget with single-function decompiles. An unproven process stop retains its admission slots until cleanup succeeds. Concurrent callers share work, individual cancellation releases only that waiter, and the last departing waiter cancels its producer and receives any unproven cleanup. Session close aborts and drains producers, releases parsed caches and retries any retained process/file cleanup.
-
-Evidence includes only selected addresses or dossier neighbors, the producing JSON's SHA-256/byte count, coverage and relevant function facts; unrequested program-wide JSON and instruction text are omitted. Reference caches are in memory and expire on close: a fresh CLI process or MCP server rebuilds them. A first call query therefore costs a whole-program reference walk even when a C export is warm. These operations do not establish full Ghidra/IDA feature parity.
-
-Failures from shared installation or inventory work identify the operation the
-caller requested. `diagnostics.producer_operation` retains the internal producer
-name when it differs. Caller-specific failures keep the producer's typed outcome,
-captured output, partial facts and live cleanup dependencies; cleanup retry
-updates every projection rather than preserving an independent stale marker.
-Installation acquisition is shared, with independently cancellable caller waits.
-The final departing caller stops the probe and joins its cleanup; session close
-also stops and joins acquisition. A cleanly cancelled acquisition can be retried,
-while a retained cleanup failure blocks replacement until its owner is closed.
-Shared string and reference queries preserve caller cancellation reasons and
-join the final departing caller's command cleanup. A command cleanup error keeps
-its typed primary failure and captured output. Its live resource list follows
-both process and workspace ownership: proving process exit does not prove that
-the private workspace was removed, and retry updates earlier caller errors.
-If workspace setup fails, an unsuccessful rollback retains the original target
-or read failure together with its cleanup owner. Replacement stays blocked until
-that rollback is resolved; a clean rollback permits another setup attempt.
-
-## Provenance and limitations
-
-- Addresses and bytes are Kuna's observations of the image. Procedure entries and extents are its derivations: extents are upper bounds clipped at the next entry, and Kuna can split one function at an entry its own analysis infers. Pseudocode is its reconstruction, never original source.
-- Pseudocode and assembly are exact Kuna text; text from Kuna and from another provider is not comparable as equal or different.
-- Results are re-read rather than replayed from REA's analysis snapshots, because a cold answer can differ from the export's.
-
-## Cache ownership
-
-REA writes Kuna's exports only inside `REA_KUNA_CACHE_DIR`:
-
-- `projects/<key>/` holds published, immutable exports with a manifest of file digests.
-- `staging/` holds builds whose processes may still be live.
-- `trash/` holds retired builds and evicted exports awaiting removal.
-- `home/` is Kuna's HOME.
-
-Builds publish by one rename, so a reader sees a complete export or none. A session keeps the export it uses from eviction only within its own REA process. If another REA process sharing the cache evicts it, the session rebuilds it; meanwhile pseudocode falls back to single-function runs. A damaged or edited export is removed and rebuilt. Staging moves to `trash/` for removal only after REA proves its Kuna process stopped. Staging of a process it cannot prove stopped is never swept; REA keeps it owned, retries the stop on `close_binary`, and reports it until the stop is proven. Failed file removal also stays bound to its export and is retried by `close_binary`; closing does not report success while that cleanup remains. `rea doctor --provider kuna` reports the cache directory without creating it.
-
-## Verify with a real Kuna
-
-```bash
-REA_KUNA_COMMAND=/absolute/path/to/kuna npm run verify:kuna
-# Compare with Ghidra on caller-built binaries
-REA_KUNA_COMMAND=/absolute/path/to/kuna GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR=/absolute/path/to/ghidra \
-  npm run verify:kuna -- --targets DIR --functions inflate,crc32 --compare-ghidra
-```
-
-The lane compiles a small source-owned fixture with the host C compiler and verifies the MCP workflow end to end. `--targets DIR --functions a,b` adds caller-built binaries. `--compare-ghidra` (with `GHIDRA_INSTALL_DIR`) runs those same functions through Ghidra; it requires `--targets` and `--functions` and refuses empty matrices or requested function names missing from every target. See [testing](testing.md#kuna-lane) for coverage.
-
-Failed runs also report process-lineage evidence and exit unsuccessfully. If provider or transport cleanup is unconfirmed, the report says `cleanup: "incomplete"` and records `retained_workspace`; that directory is preserved for investigation and cleanup retries.

-## Transports
-

-`rea mcp doctor` and the MCP registry entry describe. `rea mcp --http [--host H]
-[--port N]` is an opt-in alternative that serves the same catalog over the
-streamable HTTP transport at `/mcp`; it replaces stdio for that process rather
-than running beside it. Host and port come from the flags, then `MCP_HOST` and
-`MCP_PORT`, then `127.0.0.1` and an ephemeral port. The bound URL is announced
-as one JSON log line on stderr (`"msg":"MCP transport listening"` with `url`)
-at every `REA_LOG_LEVEL`, because an ephemeral port is otherwise unreachable;
-stdout stays unused.
-
-This endpoint uses plain HTTP without TLS or client authentication. Use it only
-within a trusted local or isolated environment; an explicit non-loopback bind
-makes the same tools and active analysis state reachable at that address. It
-does not provide separate users or independent target sessions. Standard client
-registrations continue to use a dedicated stdio process.
-
-The HTTP server is stateful and serves one client at a time on one server
-instance. `initialize` returns an `Mcp-Session-Id`; `notifications/initialized`
-is acknowledged with `202`; responses arrive as JSON or SSE frames; `DELETE
-/mcp` with the session id ends the session with `200`. Ending a session is not
-a server shutdown: the process keeps listening, the instance keeps its providers
-and the shared active target, and the next client opens a fresh session against
-them. A client ending or replacing a session cancels its running tool calls and
-prompt completions, stops request-body reads and fences further message dispatch,
-then waits up to ten seconds for request dispatch, handlers and cleanup to finish before reusing the
-server. A timeout returns `503`; the old calls remain owned, and later requests
-retry the drain rather than starting another session against those resources.
-Requests that finish parsing or SDK dispatch after their session closed are
-refused, and their response streams are cancelled. Tool callbacks whose
-validation finishes after cancellation never start.
-Body forwarding stops when SDK request processing ends, including early header
-and size refusals, rather than remaining active until the session closes.
-HTTP input/route dispatch is limited to eight concurrent requests by default,
-shared by MCP and plain routes. Excess requests receive `503` with a closing
-connection before their bodies are converted, read or cloned. An embedder can
-select `maxConcurrentDispatches`; the SDK's per-body size limit still applies.
-MCP responses with fully read or bodyless requests do not hold admission slots,
-so an idle MCP SSE stream does not prevent later calls. Plain routes retain their
-slots through response delivery and response-source cancellation cleanup. An
-unread upload retains its slot until input finishes or either side closes,
-even with a long response. Sequential keep-alive is supported; a peer pipelining
-behind an unfinished response is disconnected before queued requests dispatch.
-Concurrent MCP requests use separate connections.
-This bounds concurrent input work, not total provider or process memory.
-Provider-backed prompt completions use the same request owner and drain, so a
-cancelled completion cannot keep using providers after handover or shutdown.
-HTTP factories enable `RequestTrackingMcpServer` tracking so completion is tracked
-even when cancellation suppresses the SDK's reply; stdio retains the SDK's
-original callback behavior. Full server shutdown stops the listener and waits
-for MCP work, plain-route handlers and response-source cancellation to settle
-before running provider shutdown hooks or closing providers. Response producers
-must finish provider work before closing their stream and expose asynchronous
-disconnect cleanup through the stream's `cancel()` result. Cancellation does not
-delay delivery of a HEAD reply; a caller retaining a sibling of a teed response
-must consume or cancel that sibling before shutdown can finish. Failed response
-cleanup remains owned, blocks further admission and prevents provider teardown.
-The server continues cleanup
-automatically when they finish, including after a client handover timed out.
-All routes return `503` until the server factory succeeds; startup failure closes
-the listener and joins its pending replies before rejecting the factory.
-The newest client replaces an open session: an `initialize` that arrives
-while a session is open ends that session instead of being refused, because a
-client that exits without `DELETE` must not wedge the listener; the replaced
-client's open streams are closed and its later requests are refused. Only an
-`initialize` that carries the streamable headers (`Content-Type:
-application/json` and an `Accept` naming both `application/json` and
-`text/event-stream`) and passes the Host and Origin checks can replace a
-session; any other sessionless POST goes to the live transport, which refuses
-it without disturbing the session. Requests that carry no valid session id are
-refused with `400` or `404` as the SDK transport defines. A bind is loopback by
-address class, not spelling, and is classified from the address the listener
-actually bound: any `127.0.0.0/8` address, `::1`, or an IPv4-mapped loopback.
-Configured names, including `localhost` and its aliases, do not establish that
-the bound address is local; names are added only after classifying the actual IP.
-On such a bind, requests whose `Host` header is outside the SDK loopback allowlist plus
-the configured name and the bound address are refused with `403`, and a browser
-`Origin` outside that allowlist is refused the same way (a missing `Origin`
-passes); a non-loopback bind relaxes both checks and logs the relaxation. A reply sent before a request body was read (a refused `Host` or `Origin`, an unknown route, the startup `503`) closes the connection after the reply, so an unread upload cannot keep a socket open. Request targets are taken verbatim as origin-form paths (`//host/path` is a path, not another origin); an absolute-form target, a target containing a raw fragment delimiter (`#`), or one whose path URL parsing would rewrite (dot segments such as `/public/../mcp`), is refused with `400`, and a method Fetch does not support with `405`. Percent-encoded `%23` remains valid query data. Only a lone `initialize` can replace an open session; a batch that carries one is left to the transport's refusal. Scoped
-IPv6 literals (`fe80::1%eth0`) are refused before binding, because no URL can
-name them. Listener errors reach the runtime's connection-loss handler only
-after a successful bind; a bind failure prints the listen-failure message alone. Request bodies are bounded by the SDK's
-4 MiB limit, and the response budget keeps its stdio-derived floor. The
-listener ends on SIGINT or SIGTERM only, not on stdin EOF, and exits `130` or
-`143` after cleanup settles. A signal that arrives while startup is still
-running is recorded and acted on as soon as the listener and its providers are
-owned, so startup never ends without cleanup; a second signal during startup
-exits immediately.

-
-Use `inspect_model_artifact` (CLI: `inspect-model-artifact`) to inspect a local
-GGUF v2/v3 or safetensors file. Detection uses content, including GGUF byte
-order, rather than its extension. REA does not load a model, interpret weights,
-run inference, import Python, open external-data references or use the network.
-
-Unsupported GGUF versions remain refused. Their diagnostic preserves the four
-version bytes and both UINT32 interpretations with byte order unknown, rather
-than inferring big-endian from an unrecognized little-endian value. Little-endian
-v2/v3 and big-endian v3 remain supported; big-endian v2 remains refused.
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-model-artifact /absolute/path/model.gguf --json
-rea inspect-model-artifact /absolute/path/model.safetensors --hash full --json

-
-The CLI defaults to complete Evidence. For compact delivery with portable access
-to every retained observation:

-rea inspect-model-artifact /absolute/path/model.gguf \
-  --detail summary --evidence_output /absolute/path/model-evidence.json --json
-```
-
-## Identity and reads
-
-The default `hash: "header"` reads only the metadata and tensor directory. The
-result records the exact selected path, file size, header length, header SHA-256,
-bytes read and read scope. GGUF alignment padding is outside this prefix.
-`artifact.sha256` and the Evidence subject are null: a header digest is not a
-commitment to the weights. Different files can have identical headers and sizes.
-
-`hash: "full"` additionally streams the remaining file bytes through SHA-256.
-It returns a full-file digest and Evidence subject, while retaining the same
-header digest. It uses bounded buffers and does not interpret tensor data, but
-it does read the whole file. Cost therefore grows with file size. Both modes
-check descriptor and selected-path identity and metadata before completion;
-this detects observed replacement or modification, not adversarial modification
-that defeats filesystem metadata checks.
-
-## Facts and selected queries
-
-GGUF reports version, byte order, alignment, typed metadata, and each tensor's
-name, original type ID, dimensions, relative data offset, file offset and derived
-byte length. Alignment accepts every positive UINT32 multiple of eight, including
-non-powers of two. Metadata keys use ASCII lower-snake-case hierarchy components;
-standard numeric components such as `general.base_model.0.name` are preserved.
-Scalar metadata is complete. Arrays have declared element types,
-counts and at most eight preview elements per array, with an explicit
-`preview_complete` flag. This includes tokenizer vocabularies: omitted values
-are not silently represented as a complete array. Strings are UTF-8; 64-bit
-integer metadata and all shape dimensions use decimal strings without rounding.
-Nonfinite floating metadata uses `NaN`, `+Infinity` or `-Infinity` with its
-declared float type; negative zero is `"-0"`. Unknown tensor types retain their numeric IDs and null byte
-lengths; affected totals and storage validation remain unknown.
-
-Safetensors reports the header extent, exact string `__metadata__` values, dtype,
-shape and declared data ranges. JSON duplicate keys, invalid UTF-8, out-of-file
-ranges, overlaps, gaps, trailing unindexed data and known dtype/shape byte-length
-contradictions are rejected with a typed `file_format_rejected` constraint (public code `target_unavailable`, category `unsupported_target`). Empty
-tensors and scalar shapes are supported; packed sub-byte types require whole
-byte storage. Unknown dtypes retain declared ranges and an explicit limitation
-that shape-to-storage validation is unavailable. Each tensor records
-`storage_validation: "consistent" | "unknown"`; `coverage.storage_sizes` remains
-partial when that consistency cannot be checked. Tensor filters accept these
-`storage_validation` states independently of dtype or name.
-
-Parameter counts and per-type totals are **derived from declarations**, not
-measurements of effective parameters or inference behavior. Shared or repeated
-weights are not deduplicated. GGUF dimensions retain their original fastest-first
-order; safetensors shapes retain JSON order. Safetensors tensor rows use name
-order; GGUF rows use directory order. An index identifies a declaration within
-its collection and header digest, not tensor contents or a cross-version match.
-GGUF supports zero extents and scalar shapes, with at most four dimensions;
-known quantized types still require complete blocks in the first dimension.
-
-MCP defaults to a compact summary with counts, selected short headline metadata,
-chat-template presence and derived totals. The full type histogram and all rows
-remain in complete Evidence. Headline metadata uses short keys/types and scalar
-values; long or compound values remain available through explicit metadata
-queries. Use the returned `parent_evidence_id`:
-
-```json

-  "source": {
-    "kind": "retained-evidence",
-    "evidence_id": "<parent_evidence_id>"
-  },

-To answer a known question in the initial inspection, pass the same selection
-without `kind` as `inspect_model_artifact`'s optional `view`, for example
-`{"path":"/absolute/path/model.gguf","view":{"collection":"tensors","names":["token_embd.weight"],"fields":["type","shape","file_offset"]}}`.
-This returns one selected page with compact model context and retains the full
-source Evidence, avoiding another tool call. `view` requires summary delivery;
-complete detail and a selection are rejected as conflicting choices.
-CLI uses `--view '{"collection":"tensors","names":["token_embd.weight"]}'`
-with `--detail summary --evidence_output FILE`.
-
-Call `inspect_analysis_view` with the historical query object above for further pages. `collection: "metadata"` accepts
-exact `keys`, indices, fields and paging; use it for `tokenizer.chat_template`
-or tokenizer array previews. `collection: "types"` pages derived storage and
-parameter totals and accepts exact `types`. Tensor pages also accept `types`.
-Filters intersect; omitted filters mean all recorded rows and empty arrays mean
-none. Every row retains its source-scoped index. Names, keys and type labels
-follow field selection; `fields: []` returns only indices. Omitted fields return
-all recorded columns. Compact warnings use the shared bounded view budget and
-link to complete parent Evidence when messages are omitted. Page offsets count filtered
-matches, while row indices retain their original scope. Each page carries source
-identity, header coverage, array omissions, unknowns and parent Evidence links.
-
-Pages read historical retained facts without reopening the model. Complete
-Evidence can also be supplied inline or as a single authenticated Evidence JSON
-record through `source: {"kind": "evidence-file", "path": "/absolute/path/model-record.json"}`.
-CLI Evidence bundles contain a `records` array; import the bundle with
-`import_evidence_bundle` before using retained queries, or save one complete
-record as a standalone Evidence file. A bundle is not a single Evidence record.
-The session owns validated indexes until that Evidence is released; there is no
-live-file result cache or automatic freshness claim.
-Imported reports must retain positional indices and unique names, keys and
-type identities; malformed reports return a typed input error before indexing.
-
-## Bounds and unsupported inputs
-
-The reader admits one active inspection per provider. It enforces a 100,000,000
-byte header ceiling (safetensors counts its declared JSON bytes separately from
-the fixed eight-byte length prefix; GGUF counts the complete header) and a separate 32 MiB
-retained representation budget before retaining rows or expanding strings.
-Numeric products use exact integer arithmetic. GGUF follows its four-dimensional
-tensor layout and limits metadata array nesting to 32 frames. Resource refusals
-are typed, rather than returned as complete empty inventories. Cancellation
-joins descriptor finalization; failed cleanup remains owned for retry.

-PyTorch pickle and ZIP model deserialization are unsupported; convert using a
-trusted external workflow and supply GGUF or safetensors. ONNX, TFLite, Core ML,
-model execution and conversion are outside this operation.

-original-source identity.
-
-For unmatched candidates, optionally supply `left_observations` and

-gives exact inclusive body ranges; `read_bytes` supplies memory bytes. Observations
-must belong to the side's exact target/provider/profile and document context.
-Adjacent, consistent overlapping and partially returned reads compose by their

-body byte, equal total size, equal ordered range lengths, a unique SHA-256
-fingerprint and the same known architecture. Extents are never guessed from the
-next entry, and relocations are not normalized. A larger mapped read can serve
-several observed bodies; only needed ranges need to be captured.
-
-This first slice reuses existing range observations. Stripped builds can require
-many lightweight range queries when those facts are not retained yet. Matching
-does not hide that acquisition cost or silently start those queries. Full

-
-Repeated candidates stay `unresolved` groups without a Cartesian pair expansion.
-`only_left`/`only_right` mean no exact counterpart in the supplied observations;

-The root occurrence's `format_metadata` records the CArchive layout (2.0 or
-2.1), archive and cookie offsets, table extent, entry count, raw Python version,
-normalized major/minor when known, library name and encryption marker. Member
-metadata retains the original name, table index, type, compression flag,
-relative offset and known directory record extent. Logical paths use archive
-path rules; the source name retains its spelling, including backslashes.
-`relative_offset` is relative to the CArchive start for CArchive rows, or to
-the decoded PYZ image for PYZ rows. A CArchive directory record starts at
-`archive_start + toc_offset + directory_record_offset`; its size is
-`directory_record_size`. PYZ row directory extents remain unknown.
-
-Namespace packages remain directories. Their `relative_offset` and
-`compressed_size` preserve any payload declared by older producers, while
-`declared_size` is zero because no bytecode is materialized for a namespace.
-Every declared span must end before the PYZ table of contents.
-PYZ `compression_flag` is derived from storage: nonempty payloads are compressed,
-including legacy namespaces; an empty namespace has no compressed payload.
-
-CArchive type `o` entries are runtime options. They are metadata occurrences,
-with no content artifact or extractable file. Their query paths are
-`__pyinstaller__/runtime-options/<table index>`; the option text is
-`format_metadata.source_name`. Repeated declarations retain distinct occurrence
-identities. These paths do not claim output filesystem names.
-
-Type `d` entries are multipackage dependencies. They are also metadata, under
-`__pyinstaller__/dependencies/<table index>`, and never materialize an empty file.
-The reader preserves the raw reference and splits its first colon into
-`dependency_archive` and `dependency_member`. `dependency_status` remains
-`unresolved`, or `invalid-reference` with unknown parts for malformed references.
-`external_dependency_count` summarizes these declarations. REA does not open
-another executable or claim its contents are available. A real file with the
-same logical path as metadata remains independently extractable.
-Both declaration types require empty payloads and no compression. Their query
-paths do not participate in filesystem collision checks, directory ancestry or
-source-map target lookup; their parent identifies the declaring container.
-Complete authenticated inventory page sets preserve producer identities in any
-merge order, including metadata/file aliases. Malformed TOC diagnostics name the
-table index; original names remain available in the supplied artifact.
-Path failures use bounded escaped previews and report the original length;
-accepted paths and retained source names are not shortened.
-
-Request `detail: "summary"` for a compact inspection, then query retained
-Evidence with `inspect_analysis_view`. An inventory view can select
-`collection: "occurrences"`, `entry_kinds: ["metadata"]`, exact logical paths or
-occurrence IDs, requested `fields`, and `offset`/`limit`. Filters intersect;
-identities, parent Evidence and coverage survive projection. Full inventory
-Evidence remains available for export. A compact reply reduces returned context;
-it still performs the complete member inventory and hashing work.
-Focused views add calls and tool-schema costs. A complete small inventory can
-cost less overall; prefer compact delivery when the full member graph would
-overwhelm the answer.
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-artifact /absolute/path/hello --detail summary --evidence_output /absolute/new/evidence.json --json
-rea extract-artifact /absolute/path/hello --json
-```
-
-## Decoding and evidence limits
-
-Inventory hashes members individually through bounded streams. Stored PYZ
-images use descriptor ranges; outer-compressed images stream to private files,
-which the reader owns through cleanup and any cleanup retry. Extraction binds
-the selected carrier to its inventoried digest and checks source identity and
-state before and after reading. It does not retain expanded module bodies.
-Opaque outer-compressed images reuse that verified private image when opened,
-instead of inflating the carrier again. Direct source spans describe stored
-CArchive bytes; decompressed content has no direct span even when its encoded
-and decoded sizes coincide. Original offsets and compression remain metadata.
-
-Only the PYZ header and marshal directory are loaded for listing. PYZ tables
-have a 16 MiB budget; CArchive tables have a 32 MiB budget. Parsed facts have a
-32 MiB serialized budget. Projected entries share a 64 MiB retained budget,
-including metadata, bookkeeping and conservative reservations for namespace
-objects and possible case-collision annotations at each path component. These
-reservations happen before normalization or trie allocation.
-Outer-compressed PYZ images have a separate per-reader capacity of 128 private
-files, bounding retained inodes and image identities. The complete image count
-is admitted before any temporary file is created; excess images return a
-capacity failure. This is a resource policy, not a PyInstaller format limit.
-Only a zero-byte read establishes EOF; short successful descriptor reads fill
-the bounded range. Compressed members must consume their complete declared
-input span; trailing junk and concatenated streams are refused.
-Plaintext expansion has an aggregate archive-derived budget. Exceeding a budget
-returns a resource failure.
-
-Supported final Python bytecode magic values cover Python 3.7 through 3.14.
-Supported marshal directory values are lists, tuples, strings, integers and
-bytes. An unsupported magic or directory stays an opaque member with a
-limitation and `pyz_status: "opaque"`; its module contents remain unknown.
-Any opaque PYZ makes producer traversal coverage unknown, including retained
-summaries and exhausted queries. Per-archive reasons remain on the opaque
-occurrences; the coverage observation summarizes their count without repeating
-every limitation. An empty result does not establish module absence.
-Observed `pyz_python_magic` bytes remain available even when their Python version
-is unknown.
-The directory declares compressed module lengths, so uncompressed declared
-sizes and source spans inside decoded data remain unknown.
-
-PYZ modules receive a derived 16-byte `.pyc` header from their own supported
-magic. CArchive bytecode receives that header only when every sibling PYZ magic
-and the cookie's Python version agree. Otherwise it retains its original bytes
-and `bytecode_header: "unknown"`. `bytecode_magic` and graph derivation edges
-identify synthesized headers; member digests cover the resulting derived files.
-These headers do not establish successful execution or decompilation.
-
-The nonempty CArchive Python module `pyimod00_crypto_key` (`m`/`M`) is recorded
-as an encryption marker; a same-named data file or script is not. Affected
-PYZ blobs are reported without decoding; extraction refuses encrypted entries.
-The raw PYZ container remains readable and hashable, including when its module
-table is opaque. Its marker stays in metadata and opaque child coverage stays
-unknown; extracting the container does not decrypt its payloads.
-The marker also applies to nonempty legacy namespace payloads. Empty namespaces
-have no payload to encrypt and retain a null encryption source.
-
-Detection searches the last 16 MiB for a cookie, allowing a trailing macOS code
-signature within that bound. Member offsets are relative to the archive start:
-cookie position plus cookie size minus package length. Native bootloader
-analysis remains available through the native tools.
