Merge branch 'main' into fix/main-maintenance-ci-20261010

* fix: repair the static-check failures on the default branch

The default branch fails its own required `Static checks` job three ways, so
every pull request reports that job as failed regardless of its own change.

- `npm run format:check` reports `src/domain/functionComparison.test.ts` and
  `src/ida/IdaOperationRunner.ts`.
- `npm run lint` reports a duplicate `import { join } from "node:path"` in
  `tests/boundary/mcp/ghidraInventoryMcp.test.ts` (lines 4 and 17).
- `npm run typecheck` reports `format: "devin"` missing from the client format
  union in `src/application/SupportedClients.ts`, and an unchecked index in
  `tests/boundary/cli/clientProfileLifecycle.test.ts`, whose pair array is
  inferred as `string[][]`.

Apply the pinned formatter, drop the duplicate import, list the `"devin"` format
that its own definition already uses, and mark the pair array `as const`.

Validation: `npm run check:fast` and `npm run format:check` pass.

* fix(setup): keep Devin on the JSON configuration dialect

-# 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.

-2. Distinguish the reason. Missing, malformed, or stale registration needs a
-   scoped configuration repair. An aligned registration with no tools in the

-   that provider: static JavaScript inspection needs neither Hopper nor Ghidra,

-   Use the current client's ID, show its exact proposed paths, backups, and

-   only if that separate installation was needed and explicitly approved.

-- Embedded CUDA/HIP code objects: `inspect_gpu_code_objects`; inventory targets
-  first, then decode selected payloads and query retained GPU Evidence.
-- Bundled GGUF or safetensors model declarations: `inspect_model_artifact`

-  unknown; `hash: "full"` additionally reads all weights for SHA-256. MCP returns
-  retained summaries; optional `view` selects one page in the initial call. Use
-  `inspect_analysis_view` kind `model-artifact` for
-  batched metadata keys, tensor names or type totals, selected fields and pages.
-  Preserve header-scoped indices and array preview omissions; do not infer model
-  behavior from declared architecture or tensor types. See the

-- Unity IL2CPP names, member owners and string literals from `global-metadata.dat`:

-  counts. Query sections, images, types, methods, fields, properties, events,
-  parameters or string_literals through `inspect_analysis_view`
-  with the returned `parent_evidence_id`, using exact filters, batch indices and
-  selected fields. Parameters accept `method_indices`, avoiding a scan of all
-  parameter pages. Missing collections in historical Evidence remain unknown.
-  Versions 24, 27, 29, 31 and 39; no Unity, IL2CPP
-  binary or disassembler is run. Unrecognized magic (possibly encrypted) and
-  other versions are unsupported. Optional matching `binary_path` enables static native addresses and type references; query `method_addresses` with indices or addresses/states, preserving every shared-body method and both artifact identities. Without a linked binary native counts remain unknown. Byte-pattern fallback is inferred; no runtime behavior or same-build pairing is proved. See the
-  [IL2CPP metadata guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/il2cpp-metadata.md).
 - Embedded cargo-auditable Rust dependency metadata: `inspect_rust_binary`
   with the explicit local ELF, PE, or thin Mach-O file. This built-in
   target-free inspection requires no Rust installation or disassembler. Preserve
   package order, dependency indices, and the section file range. A missing
   `.dep-v0` section is null metadata, not proof the binary has no dependencies.
   A rustc commit hash is an inference from a read-only `/rustc/<40-hex>/` path.
-  For selected crates, use `view: {collection: "packages", names: [...],
-  fields: ["name", "version", "source"]}` on the first call; explicitly include
-  `dependencies` for direct index references. Use `detail: "summary"` for counts
-  and ranges, or retained `inspect_analysis_view` Rust package/edge pages for
-  subsequent filters. Keep the complete parent Evidence accessible; CLI compact
-  delivery requires `--evidence_output`.

-  Windows SDK. Preserve WIN_CERTIFICATE ranges, types, payload SHA-256, and
-  PKCS#7 signer/X.509 identity fields, including `subject_key_identifier_hex`
-  when the signer uses that form. A missing security directory is observed
-  absence of that table, not proof the image is unsigned in every catalog sense.
-  Signatures are not verified. See the
-  [PE certificate guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/pe-certificates.md).
-- PE import and delay-load tables: `inspect_pe_imports` with the explicit
-  local PE32/PE32+ file. This built-in target-free inspection requires no
-  Windows SDK. Preserve DLL names, named and ordinal functions, ILT/IAT RVAs,
-  delay-load descriptors, and the pefile import hash of the standard import
-  table. A missing import directory is observed absence of that table, not
-  proof the image never imported APIs through another table. Bound snapshots
-  and loaded IAT contents remain unobserved. See the
-  [PE import guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/pe-imports.md).
-- PE TLS callbacks and load configuration: `inspect_pe_load_config` with the
-  explicit local PE32/PE32+ file. This built-in target-free inspection requires
-  no Windows SDK. Preserve callback VAs as strings with their RVA, file offset
-  and section, and the size-covered security cookie, SafeSEH, CFG,
-  EH-continuation and XFG fields. Guard-flag mitigation claims are inferred
-  linker declarations, not proof of enforcement. A missing directory is observed
-  absence of that declaration. See the
-  [PE load configuration guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/pe-load-config.md).
-- ELF note tables: `inspect_elf_notes` with the explicit local ELF32/ELF64
-  file. This built-in target-free inspection requires no disassembler. Preserve
-  PT_NOTE and SHT_NOTE ranges, owners, types, descriptor SHA-256, and GNU
-  build-id or ABI-tag fields. A missing table is observed absence of those
-  declarations, not proof the image never carried notes. See the
-  [ELF notes guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/elf-notes.md).
-- Apple `.ips` crash reports: `inspect_apple_ips` with the explicit local
-  file. This built-in target-free inspection requires no Xcode, atos, or
-  pwntools. Preserve first-line metadata, `bug_type` as a string, process and
-  exception facts, lossless integer registers, usedImages UUIDs, and
-  documented classification matches. Only `bug_type` `"309"` yields a crash
-  body; other types, including `"288"` stackshots, return no crash result.
-  Opened Mach-O and dSYM UUID joins remain unobserved. See the
-  [Apple IPS guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/apple-ips.md).
-- Linux kernel module metadata: `inspect_kernel_module` with the explicit local
-  ELF32/ELF64 relocatable file. This built-in target-free inspection requires
-  no Linux host or `modinfo`. Preserve `.modinfo` key order and duplicate keys,
-  `__versions` CRC hex, section file ranges, and the appended signature
-  trailer's PKCS#7 SHA-256. A missing section is observed absence when section
-  names are known, not proof the module never carried that metadata.
-  `struct module` is not decoded. The signature is not validated. gzip, xz, and
-  zstd containers are unsupported; decompress into a separate file with an
-  external codec utility, then inspect the decompressed `ET_REL` image. See the
-  [kernel module guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/kernel-modules.md).
-- CPython 3.7–3.13 `.pyc` header, nested marshal code objects and bytecode
-  identity: `inspect_python_pyc` with the explicit local file. This built-in
-  target-free inspection requires no Python installation. Preserve magic,
-  PEP 552 hash or mtime/size, nested names, and bytecode SHA-256. Bytecode is
-  not decompiled, and a decoded header does not prove the matching `.py` is
-  present. See the
-  [CPython pyc guide](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/docs/python-pyc.md).
-- Erlang BEAM IFF container: `inspect_erlang_beam` with the explicit local
-  `.beam` file. This built-in target-free inspection requires no Erlang
-  installation. Preserve chunk names, atom order, export/import/lambda tables,
-  and the Code header. For selected facts, prefer `detail: "summary"` plus a
-  `beam` view (collection, names/indices, fields and paging), retaining the full
-  Evidence. CLI summary requires `--evidence_output`. Missing table counts stay
-  null; decoded empty tables count zero. Bytecode is not executed. See the

-the client's deadline expired before a result arrived. It does not establish
-that REA finished, canceled successfully, or released all resources. Do not
-repeat the unchanged analysis. Inspect available session/provider state and

-Allow the host tool deadline to cover execution, cancellation/cleanup, and

-`mcp_servers.<server-id>.tool_timeout_sec` in **seconds**, not
-`startup_timeout_sec`. Select a value for the actual operation budget and

-When configuration is not editable, report the setting needed or use an

-`detail: "summary"` reduces delivery, not analysis work. A per-source budget

-## Before recording

-  scenario secret, `{secret_id, environment_variable}`; the variable must be set
-  in the environment REA's MCP server started with. Never ask for a password in
-  chat. Declared secrets are redacted as the capture records.
-- Map the application first with `inspect_web_page` (and `capture_web_screenshot`

-Give every step a `timeout_ms`. A step without one waits until the scenario
-is cancelled, so a locator that never matches hangs the capture, and the
-client with it. Match `wait_for` locators to exactly one element.
-
-1. Sign in through the UI: `fill` the user and password fields (the password
-   as a secret reference), submit, then `wait_for` an element only a signed-in
-   user sees.
-2. Read with `request` steps: each collection the environment needs, twice
-   before any write, so fields that change on their own show up; one item of
-   each.
-3. Use `request` steps only when the API lets the caller choose each scratch
-   object's ID or a prior read already established it. Request paths are fixed
-   strings; no action substitutes a value from an earlier response. For
-   server-assigned IDs, create through the UI and open the new object's detail
-   view to record its read, edit and delete through UI actions. If that journey
-   cannot be scripted, leave the write unserved and report the limitation;
-   never guess an ID or create objects with no supported cleanup path.
-   Record two numbered scratch objects per write type,
-   with varied free text. After each write, and before the next one, read the
-   object back by id and then its list: create 1, read 1, list, create 2,
-   read 2, list; never several writes before their reads.
-4. Leave more than a second between a create and its first edit
-   (`wait_for_timeout` with `duration_ms: 1100`).
-5. Update both objects and read each back; delete both and read each back
-   (expect 404) and the list.
-
-About `request` steps:
-
-- `path` is on the start URL's origin; the page must be on that origin.
-- Header values are literals, declared secrets, a cookie the browser holds
-  (`{source: "cookie", name}`), or a local storage entry
-  (`{source: "local_storage", key, json_pointer}`), with an optional
-  `prefix` such as `"Bearer "`. Copy the headers the application's own
-  requests send (a CSRF header, a bearer token). Values read from the page
-  are redacted from records made after they are read, not from the login
-  response that returned them, and values shorter than 8 characters are not
-  redacted at all.
-- Reading a page value makes later bodies costlier to keep: after a CSRF
-  token, bodies over about 47 KiB are kept as `unavailable`. When the API
-  returns larger responses, raise `capture.limits`
-  (`max_network_body_allocation_bytes`, `max_total_event_allocation_bytes`).
-- Request steps follow no redirects: a redirect fails the step, and
-  `expected_status` cannot name a 3xx status. Use the path the redirect names,
-  such as the one with the trailing slash.
-- Set `expected_status` on every step, so a refused call fails its step and
-  the later steps report not having run, instead of recording read-backs of
-  nothing.
-
-Keep it to about 60 to 160 requests. A scenario with no `request` step is
-recorded exactly as before.
-
-The capture returns its whole Evidence, every recorded body included, which is
-often more than a client shows inline. Before checking coverage, confirm that
-every entry of `normalized_result.steps` has `status: "completed"`; if the
-client saved the result to a file, search it for `"status":"failed"` and read
-that step's `error`. A failed sign-in or write cancels every step after it.
-Use the result's `evidence_id` for coverage and export; do not paste the
-Evidence back into another tool.
-
-## Check coverage

-| `unconfirmed`         | Re-record: read the entity and its list after the write.                                      |
-| `incomplete-entities` | Re-record: read the entity through every view that lists it.                                  |
-| `unexplained-change`  | Re-record once with a second, different call of the same write.                               |
-| `no-call`             | Re-record once with a write that succeeds.                                                    |
-| `side-effect`         | Stop: the application changes other entities.                                                 |
-| `contradicted`        | Stop: a later read disagrees with the modelled effect.                                        |
-| `body-unusable`       | Stop: the body is not a JSON object.                                                          |

-Use new scratch names on each attempt; the first attempt's objects may still

-New browser scenario captures include request times, so a fully timed capture
-can learn a write clock and serve updates that stamp modification times. Older
-captures or ones missing a request start keep record order and learn no clock.
-When coverage reports that limitation, record again with the current version
-before concluding that the timestamp change cannot be served.

-## Bridge request ceiling
-
-Hopper and Cutter share `REA_BRIDGE_MAX_REQUEST_BYTES`. Unset, both sides use
-16777216 bytes. The payload budget excludes the terminating LF. A decimal
-integer from 7464 to 536870887 raises or lowers that ceiling. The floor fits
-the largest bounded symbol-name command. A tight Cutter status still returns
-its session id and up to 64 completion receipts. Its path is included when it
-fits, and is unknown when it does not, so an older descriptor path is not
-paired with the new generation. The maximum is the encoded payload, one byte under Node's string ceiling so
-the framing LF still fits. Cutter measures, signs, and writes a fitting
-response in bounded chunks. The bridge searches only the newly read bytes
-for the framing LF. The client unescapes each socket chunk into one response
-string before parsing it, so this ceiling does not keep the paged wire frame
-and another concatenated copy. Invalid values are configuration errors and do not fall back to 16777216. Set the variable in the environment that starts REA, restart REA,
-and start Hopper or Cutter from that same environment. An out-of-band bridge
-without the setting stays at 16777216 bytes. The client reports that mismatch
-during discovery only after the hello proves a live authenticated bridge, and
-does not send a status request or the command. A stale descriptor is ignored.
-Discovery fails if any such live ceiling differs, even when another live
-session matches. A command response discarded for that ceiling stays an
-unknown execution with `output_truncated`. A hello
-that never sends its authenticated frame does not hold the accept loop.
-At most 8 connection threads run; a further accept is closed, and a failure
-to start a thread does not stop the listener. `completed_connection` is the
-longest prefix of connections that have terminated. Dense scalar replies are
-encoded in bounded batches.
-The 25000 ms Cutter request deadline and the 256-candidate discovery budget
-still have no runtime override.
-
-## Static memory and original file bytes
-
-For Ghidra, `read_bytes` reads initialized analysis memory, including loader
-fixups; it does not read a running process. Check `returned_bytes` and `complete`
-before decoding a table. An incomplete read is missing coverage, not a zero-filled
-tail. Use `list_segments` to inspect the selected block's initialization and address-space
-facts, and retain unavailable facts as unknown.
-
-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
-resource is absent without the necessary initialization evidence.

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.

 When fixing a bug, inspect the producing boundary and affected consumers for duplicated interpretation or unclear ownership.

-Coordinate expensive checks across agents. If a test unexpectedly consumes heavy CPU, stop its owned process family and profile a bounded representative case before retrying.

 ## Tool and Test Changes
 
 For tool design, follow [docs/tool-design.md](docs/tool-design.md): start from the analyst question, reuse existing contracts, preserve caller choices, and return useful evidence inline. Limits must follow real format, protocol, authority, or resource constraints. Account for representation expansion before allocation; derive completeness from examined coverage.

-## Issue Reports
-
-Follow [issue reporting guidance](CONTRIBUTING.md#reporting-issues) and the matching
-issue form. Keep reports concise and cite the smallest useful evidence.
-Distinguish observed results, source-derived reasoning, hypotheses, and proposed
-checks. Never claim runtime reproduction or measurements you did not perform.
-Use `NOT_ENOUGH_INFO` with an explanation for missing narrative answers or evidence.
-Incomplete reports, source-only findings, and early feature or design ideas are
-welcome when their limitations are explicit; a completed diagnosis or fix is not
-required to open an issue.
-
-## Pull Request Readiness
-
-Follow [human ownership and readiness](CONTRIBUTING.md#pull-request-ownership-and-readiness)
-when preparing a PR. AI-assisted contributions are welcome; a human must review
-and own the final diff, check the validation evidence and its limitations, and
-explicitly declare the PR ready for initial maintainer review.
-
-Keep the PR body concise and current, with the concrete problem, observable
-outcome, approach, and evidence. Report only checks that actually ran as executed;
-distinguish source-derived conclusions, proposed checks, and unavailable coverage.
-Address actionable automated review findings and explain disagreements.
-
-Leave the template's **Author readiness** declarations unchecked for the human
-owner to complete. Never attest to human review on their behalf. Draft status
-is optional; preserve the PR's current draft status unless the user asks to change
-it. Later pushes do not invalidate the readiness declaration or require another
-human sign-off. Keep the PR body and affected validation current as work changes.
-The readiness check validates
-the filled declaration; CI and automated review results do not establish that
-human review occurred, maintainer scope approval, or merge permission.

-## [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. ([#4389](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4389), [morluto/rea#4390](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4390), [#4605](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4605), [morluto/rea#4593](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4593), [#4562](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4562), [morluto/rea#4393](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4393), [#3605](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3605), [morluto/rea#3453](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3453), [f9de413](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/f9de41371f7536e2e22ce6e43c9314fa2f238a30), [e7df00e](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/e7df00e80777757b329bbe8aba6d421d8892b9d5)). Thanks @Adolanium, @gensokyo-dev, @gkobayashi0, @HarsH-1877, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @keeponlight, @N0zoM1z0, @Nitin13-git, @xu91102.
-- **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. ([#4324](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4324), [morluto/rea#4292](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4292), [2cf9c28](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/2cf9c28f27261b7e64af2ba7ecb4e23ea7714aee), [#4839](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4839), [morluto/rea#4834](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/4834), [f2b7bbb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/f2b7bbb31279a820f4cf32d439570f8e5381d010), [6c98708](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/6c98708793c23615de8053b2cd14d9f164b960c5), [78cf610](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/78cf6100f33ad2412c0a3d60b83f8a44a43fbbb5), [c7e9e09](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/c7e9e096d3e2444e4c251123b8e914e9c0941f4e), [#3793](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3793), [#4105](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/4105), [morluto/rea#3892](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3892)). 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)). Thanks @8rulerstar, @coygeek, @duckhunt113, @Hahaa909, @JayOfTheKeyboard, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @keeponlight, @N0zoM1z0, @tomyrms.
-- **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)). Thanks @coygeek, @gensokyo-dev, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0, @pablodiazjorge, @xu91102.
-- **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)). Thanks @amyanger, @coygeek, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @Rinkia, @Swatantra-66.

-### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
-
-- **Saved Evidence:** Evidence and analysis snapshots now require explicit nullable `relationship_coverage` in their identity commitments. Earlier records whose digest omitted null coverage are incompatible even when the serialized field is explicitly null. 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)). Thanks @gensokyo-dev, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.

-
-### Changes
-
-- **JavaScript source selection:** analyze exact application paths without expanding imports into the selected scope. Unselected files retain identity and explicit unknown coverage; summary delivery remains separate from source selection. ([#1944](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1944), [issue morluto/rea#1848](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1848)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Code-split recovery:** recover related bundles from multiple selected inputs, retaining per-file provenance and downstream cross-chunk imports. Recorded CLI/MCP coverage is Linux x64 with Wakaru 1.14.0 and source-owned esbuild/webpack fixtures; other hosts, releases and arbitrary application equivalence remain unverified. ([#1686](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1686), [issue morluto/rea#1605](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1605)). Thanks @JingHao-Leon, @pionxzh.
-- **Package imports:** resolve exact package import aliases using the selected loader and package ancestry, rather than guessing sibling files. ([#1862](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1862), [issue morluto/rea#1838](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1838)). Thanks @AWUQAQ, @mvanhorn.
-- **Retained analysis views:** opt into compact inventory/WASM, managed metadata, Android manifest, Dart AOT, Mach-O and EVM summaries, then page retained Evidence without rerunning analysis. Summary delivery preserves the complete recorded result and its original coverage. ([#2122](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2122), [#2193](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2193), [#2413](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2413), [#2438](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2438), [#2455](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2455), [#2634](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2634), [#2308](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2308), [9a18251](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/9a18251426f891e6a24856b715ef8002ab8b9610)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Managed assemblies:** Select declaring types when inspecting members, decode inspected `ldstr` literals with independent coverage, and page retained member summaries. Call and field targets expose `target_declaring_type` and `field_declaring_type`, including supported generic method targets; unresolved metadata remains unknown. ([#1706](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1706), [#2125](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2125), [issue morluto/rea#2121](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2121), [#2162](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2162), [issue morluto/rea#2158](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2158), [#3061](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3061), [issue morluto/rea#3010](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3010), [#2163](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2163), [issue morluto/rea#2160](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2160)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0, @Nelglor, @skoodster.
-- **Packet captures:** inspect saved packets with bounded TShark output, compact capture summaries and retained pages; discover installed protocol/field definitions. Recorded real-engine coverage uses Linux and Wireshark 4.6.6; native Windows/macOS and Bun behavior remain unverified. ([#2318](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2318), [#2340](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2340), [#2496](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2496)). Thanks @3QL, @N0zoM1z0, @Olorinm.
-- **Recorded signals:** decode existing recordings and discover installed decoders/options through caller-supplied sigrok-cli 0.7.2. This is Linux-only and requires util-linux `prlimit`; it acquires no hardware samples. ([#2339](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2339), [#2487](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2487)). Thanks @N0zoM1z0, @Olorinm.
-- **Web captures:** derive an inferred method/origin/path-template API surface from retained HAR data including observed query-parameter names while retaining unknowns; query values, headers and bodies remain excluded. ([#1891](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1891), [#2982](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2982), [issue morluto/rea#2913](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2913)). Thanks @mvanhorn, @wunianze666-netizen, @zhangguiping-xydt.
-- **QUIC captures:** inspect retained aioquic 1.5.0 JSON qlog 0.3 objects and page traces/streams/observations. Other qlog layouts remain unsupported; overlap and loss declarations do not prove retransmission or network loss. ([#2277](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2277)). Thanks @LuisTaffelli, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Fiddler captures:** inspect native SAZ archives with retained HTTP provenance and bounded decoding. Recorded producer coverage is the pinned public encoding corpus; current Fiddler Everywhere variants and Bun-native execution remain unverified. ([#2409](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2409)). Thanks @N0zoM1z0, @zahhak.
-- **SQLite snapshots:** inspect an explicitly selected offline database with table/column selection and bounded Evidence. This operation requires Node 24.x >=24.15 or 26+ with `DatabaseSync.limits`; supported Node 22 and earlier 24 runtimes cannot use it. A live database/WAL copy does not establish an atomic snapshot. ([#2271](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2271)). Thanks @N0zoM1z0, @Y0UW1SH.
-- **WASM artifacts:** Inspect local modules with bring-your-own WABT 1.0.42 without executing them. Compare imports/exports from two complete core-module inspection Evidence records without requiring an active WABT installation; unsupported signatures and duplicate identities remain unknown, and comparisons do not establish runtime compatibility. Recorded real-tool inspection coverage is macOS arm64. ([#1533](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1533), [issue morluto/rea#884](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/884), [#2464](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2464), [issue morluto/rea#2356](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2356)). Thanks @matbrgz, @N0zoM1z0, @thangldw.
-- **Go binaries:** inspect embedded build metadata, including file-backed unmapped Mach-O debug segments. ([#1363](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1363), [7fb097d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/7fb097d72c9931dd5dfae481ad2b9d3bb6029f15)). Thanks @Y0UW1SH.
-- **Flutter APKs:** identify snapshot/engine builds and inspect AOT structure without an external engine. Recorded real APK coverage uses the documented Flutter Gallery fixture; macOS/Windows and complete pool semantics remain unverified, and pool coverage stays partial. ([#1582](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1582)). Thanks @3QL.
-- **HarmonyOS packages:** inventory HAP/HSP/App Pack structures without executing code. The recorded real workflow covers one pinned HAP through repository-built CLI/MCP; installed-package and real HSP/App Pack coverage remain unverified. ([#1447](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1447)). Thanks @BaaRai.
-- **Ghidra raw inputs and references:** compatible Linux/macOS Ghidra profiles accept caller-selected raw architecture/entry information and expose typed incoming references at exact addresses. Windows Ghidra P0 admits the raw NMOS 6502 profile described below; other raw targets and the incoming-reference facet remain outside Windows P0. ([#1868](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1868), [issue morluto/rea#1836](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1836), [#1715](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1715), [issue morluto/rea#1245](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1245)). Thanks @bugstan, @casesolved-co-uk, @mvanhorn, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Ghidra MIPS:** Add bounded MIPS32r2/o32 relocatable objects, soft-float integer-register storage, admitted MIPS16 shared ELF, and a narrowly admitted recordless legacy MIPS32 executable profile. The latter pins an endian-matched 32-bit language and records inferred o32 as an analysis assumption. Admission follows each documented ABI/flag/relocation boundary. ([#1949](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1949), [issue morluto/rea#1937](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1937), [#1950](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1950), [issue morluto/rea#1938](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1938), [#1991](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1991), [issue morluto/rea#1851](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1851), [#1898](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1898), [issue morluto/rea#1620](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1620)). Thanks @AurelioB, @BaaRai, @bqw371, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Ghidra RISC-V:** admit little-endian RV32/RV64 `ET_EXEC` ELF declaring the supported double-float ABI. Relocatable/shared, big-endian and other ABI profiles remain refused; see [the profile and recorded lane](docs/ghidra-riscv.md). ([#2151](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2151)). Thanks @NIU-123370.
-- **PSP static ELF profile:** the Ghidra profile is Linux x64, bounded little-endian ELF32 `ET_EXEC` with the documented PSP/ABI declarations and a compatible caller-installed Allegrex extension. PRX, shared/relocatable images, PBP/ISO/CSO and runtime emulation are outside scope. Historical extension experiments are separate from public-provider verification; real public Ghidra PSP coverage remains unverified. ([#1599](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1599)). Thanks @jaelliot.
-- **Ghidra analysis settings:** apply validated analyzer overrides before analysis while retaining the selected analysis profile. ([#1913](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1913)). Thanks @akushonkamen, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Attached native IDA MCP:** add an optional native bridge alongside existing legacy/headless profiles. Recorded native runs use Linux IDA Free 9.4 with a navigation correction and Windows IDA Pro 9.3 with a loopback-listener change; stock native switching, native macOS and Windows IDA Free remain unverified. Attached databases remain read-only and are never saved or closed. ([#1544](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1544)). Thanks @imissapixel, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Frida instrumentation:** add explicit local/remote target selection, caller-supplied scripts and retained messages, with script-read/input diagnostics and bounded message eviction. Recorded real coverage is the Linux local Node marker workflow; macOS, Windows and remote devices/servers remain unverified. Instrumentation executes foreign code and is destructive, not read-only. ([#1359](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1359), [#2211](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2211), [issue morluto/rea#2209](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2209), [#2217](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2217), [issue morluto/rea#2213](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2213), [#2628](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2628)). Thanks @dandgabr, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Client setup:** register Qoder, Trae, ZCode, DeepSeek Harness, Kimi Code, Factory Droid and WorkBuddy through the existing scoped setup flow. DeepSeek is included from 6.5.0; the historical npm 6.4 check did not cover it. Live Trae and DeepSeek API integration remain unverified. ([#1564](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1564), [#1572](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1572), [#1573](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1573), [#1929](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1929), [issue morluto/rea#1839](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1839), [#2744](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2744), [#2309](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2309), [#3041](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3041), [issue morluto/rea#3040](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/3040)). Thanks @0xRafie, @BaaRai, @cainiao1992, @IvenKooLab, @whoishaha, @ysntony.
-- **Website:** Add maintained language editions, persistent/system-aware themes, keyboard styling and nested Evidence indentation, plus the reverse-engineering models essay. A simpler home page and beginner journey connect platform prerequisites, client/provider setup and a supplied first investigation. ([#1779](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1779), [issue morluto/rea#1022](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/1022), [#1699](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1699), [#1714](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1714), [#1894](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1894), [#2250](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2250), [#2432](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2432), [#2732](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2732), [#3274](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/3274)). Thanks @CassieFox23, @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-
-- **Rust dependency metadata:** Inspect embedded cargo-auditable package/dependency records in ELF, PE and thin Mach-O without executing the file. Missing metadata and inferred compiler hashes retain explicit limitations; universal Mach-O requires a selected thin slice. ([#2456](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2456)). Thanks @mvanhorn.
-- **Electron fuses:** Read packaged fuse bytes and per-slice runtime implications without launching or modifying the app. Missing, truncated and unknown wires remain explicit; fuse observations do not prove other Inspector-enablement paths. ([#2399](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2399)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @mvanhorn, @N0zoM1z0.
-- **Ghidra PowerPC:** Admit bounded ELF32 big-endian `ET_EXEC` PowerPC with an explicit language profile on supported Linux/macOS hosts. PPC64, DOL and other variants remain outside this lane; see [the profile and verification prerequisites](docs/ghidra-ppc.md). ([#1747](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1747)). Thanks @arielfikru.
-
-- **Reference-source summaries:** Use CLI `import-reference-source --detail summary` for compact manifest, count, state and path-outline output. The complete graph remains available and is still the default; hidden outline entries retain separate coverage counts. ([#2768](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2768), [issue morluto/rea#2442](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2442)). Thanks @matbrgz, @To3akaRin.
-
-- **Recorded AArch64 crashes:** Decode 34 ABI register values per thread from supported Linux ELF64 little-endian core notes using the documented caller-provided Python dependencies. These are recorded facts, not proof of current process or library identity. ([#2505](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2505), [issue morluto/rea#2353](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2353)). Thanks @matbrgz, @NIU-123370.
-
-- **Ghidra byte search:** Search initialized analyzed memory using wildcards, bit masks, address bounds and paged results. Unloaded, overlay and uninitialized blocks retain skipped coverage; this is not a raw-file search. ([#2341](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2341)). Thanks @mvanhorn.
-
-- **Raw NMOS 6502 images:** Analyze explicitly selected headerless images with Ghidra, including Windows P0, using a caller-selected entry and source mapping within the 16-bit address space. Cartridge parsing, reset-vector inference and 65C02/65816 are outside this profile. ([#2079](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2079)). Thanks @Zhong-fan.
-
-- **Swift String observations:** Ghidra function dossiers derive supported AArch64 Swift String literals from constant-register pairs at recognized use sites, retaining instruction/register provenance and explicit omissions. This is a bounded derivation, not a complete string inventory. ([#2049](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2049), [issue morluto/rea#2030](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2030)). Thanks @thefolahan.
-
-- **Headless IDA procedure lookup:** Resolve addresses to canonical containing-procedure entries and identify the session’s admitted program document in the modern headless profile. Incomplete surveys remain errors; attached profiles do not advertise this containment capability. ([#2374](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2374), [issue morluto/rea#2335](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/2335)). Thanks @nikolay-dementiev.
-
-- **Passive browser attachment:** Six existing passive browser tools accept an explicit-port loopback browser WebSocket endpoint when HTTP target discovery is unavailable. Existing consent and target/origin checks remain required; this does not launch a browser or enable runtime instrumentation. ([#2346](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2346)). Thanks @all-black-493.
-
-- **Android DEX references:** Retain exact method descriptors and individual direct-invoke observations with source method, DEX entry, opcode and code-unit offset. These are static references; unavailable instruction facts remain separate from method-level usage totals. ([#2439](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2439)). Thanks @LcokHcak.
-
-- **Offline EVM metadata:** Retain bounded, lossless facts from plausible terminal Solidity CBOR root-map candidates. Candidates do not prove Solidity origin or source/compiler identity, and linked metadata is not fetched. ([#2790](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2790)). Thanks @matbrgz.
-
-### Fixes
-
-- **JavaScript loader and export identity:** Respect import/require conditions and unavailable package metadata, keep export links separate from writes, and resolve default identifier exports to the value captured at the export statement. ([7e5cffa](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/7e5cffa2ae9dfc9afaeca0715110d4dd41c0dcdd), [322506d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/322506d0c0d39d3cd1e2e1c285c2cc23cfa73ee7), [81f7638](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/81f763820319a762f003cf95651ed14ce9326a4c), [dae1e55](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/dae1e55381f0d6cfee7f2082d5d27b938e55704c)). Thanks @paoValle, @VarunGore36, @xu91102.
-- **JavaScript traces:** Retain nested bridge calls and surviving early-return predicates. Honor node-ID match options, match route seeds against source values, and keep ambiguous runtime candidates unknown. ([0351328](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/0351328e54ce70ea3f2814482e76b132774aff48), [5031099](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/503109995f9dcf8a955585d39a344fc846d2f59e), [44c9d29](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/44c9d2924d5b95d7a86595e8d7b7cf4fd4f0f6ac), [5e79d46](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/5e79d468e5864204cbe79a7ca2898541cee5e012)). Thanks @jpdefo.
-- **Browser comparison coverage:** Compare only known redirect response fields and retain network-selection recovery guidance alongside independent event changes. Missing response facts do not prove equality or a change. ([2b60e09](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/2b60e097f281f7708c69f1f7ba9263694547bcc0)).
-- **Evidence comparison and ledger input:** Report display-only bundle differences as unchanged while retaining digests, and classify noncanonical bundle records as invalid caller input. ([030c477](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/030c47732833c9cedcc31db1309eb3a1ca2c62e8), [3a34ad3](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3a34ad37bdb7b8debba0f6515ba85b80141f2716)).
-- **Capture and admission cleanup:** Keep deleted-file observations and original bytes when a parent becomes a file, preserve unrelated I/O failures during cancellation, and require explicit pre-launch proof before releasing an unknown LLDB target owner. LLDB failure controls used simulated boundaries. ([e67c364](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/e67c3642c8920a2a9c0e231ee2f16f50b245df31), [2daeff4](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/2daeff4b243e1cd137c591ca394e18a1c05c8bbc), [45b6a7f](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/45b6a7fe8f51a89951aaa823ffa627f6f5453a33)). Thanks @SII-YDD, @xu91102.
-- **Client configuration:** Validate MCP output-schema profiles before setup writes, ignore untrusted Gemini workspace settings before parsing them, and identify installed skills independently of marker-only client roots. ([0930e94](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/0930e94e077ab7fb4d695f62785919a8a25c2e21), [aade9bb](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/aade9bbcb79aa8504ab6921b25f8ab082aba78e7), [ba33c70](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/ba33c706d26b63e43308be50c0249c72cff62cc6)). Thanks @CmsChase, @paoValle, @sx4im.
-- **Host tool discovery:** Share macOS Hopper launcher discovery across setup and runtime, preserve explicit paths, and report validated ADB and Apktool availability. ([7582f0d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/7582f0dff29ae0e80c97b885ddd386ac61a92570), [e5deb83](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/e5deb832cb09bb524877d0df40f49d5b5bb7dea4)).

-### ⚠ BREAKING CHANGES
-
-- **Runtime attachment state:** `attached` may be `null` in JavaScript, browser and Electron discovery/inspection results. Treat null as unknown; do not coerce it to false. ([e55ef72](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/e55ef7213515ba204c3d88a4487b4ee6a2773b06)).
-- **Source maps:** original-source and mapping rows preserve a null source name when unavailable. Handle null explicitly instead of expecting an invented unknown-source string; new index fields remain optional when reading older Evidence. ([ee50ed1](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/ee50ed121e38cc6e1a2ff0dc8b789f15f71c5402)).
-- **Streamed filtered JSON:** `--filter-output` now emits JSON `null` instead of `{}` when the selected value is null; consumers must distinguish a present null from a missing selection. Use `--full-output` when an object envelope is required. ([#2333](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2333)). Thanks @Jackmeson1.
-- **Call graphs:** `get_call_graph.normalized_result` is now `{ graph, limitations }`; read traversal-depth groups under `graph` and retain relationship-specific caveats. Contract/fixture validation does not establish new Ghidra or IDA engine coverage. ([5dfb9d0](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/5dfb9d050c2cc44a61b183dae765bef4d22a53b7)).
-- **MCP discovery:** `binary_session` no longer repeats `server_identity.catalog.tools`. Use the connected server tool list, grouped `tool_availability` and provider capabilities; see [MCP contracts](docs/mcp-contracts.md). Origin: [6395e8d](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/6395e8d3007d5ee453477460e7ee1c51cff76be0). ([#1988](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/1988)). Thanks @kaoru0822-kitauji, @N0zoM1z0.
-
-- **Provider admission:** MIPS targets with unresolved GNU ABI attributes are refused. Supply supported ABI declarations. Saved Hopper databases on macOS are unavailable because the launcher cannot run the analysis bridge when opening a database; select an executable target instead. Database support requires a script-capable database launch route. ([d4bd65c](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/d4bd65c53c0254d0195cc7ab8da163dcadfd3b9b)).
-- **Segment extents:** `binary_overview` segment length may be null when Hopper coordinates cannot establish a finite extent in one address space. Preserve unknown rather than converting it to zero or a saturated value. ([36db19c](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/36db19c59)).
-- **Invocation identity:** `server.command_path` may be null, and registration/setup statuses or doctor classifications may be unknown. Preserve these states and establish the actual invocation before treating a registration as aligned. ([187f113](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/187f113f7)). Thanks @hemv-857, @qorvr.
-- **ADB installation:** the optional `replace` input is unchanged. Results now require `replace_requested` to record the requested `adb install -r` mode; `replaced` is nullable because prior device package state was not observed. Update result readers to accept null instead of treating reinstall intent as proof of replacement. ([864314a](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/864314ac857924a7e6e65bfb37e8dc720fcc21e7)).
-- **Managed/native verification:** unresolved P/Invoke results may retain `matched_native` and candidate facts when module identity is unknown. Interpret `status`, `basis` and `limitations`; `module-identity-unknown` does not verify correspondence, and unresolved no longer implies empty observations. ([3f6b575](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/3f6b5755b3e699bd9373641acffe0f2c5d2ab094)).

-## Reporting issues
-
-Use the issue form that fits the report and keep it concise. For bugs, include
-the actual result, the shortest reproduction you ran, the tested version and
-environment, and the smallest useful output, artifact, screenshot, or source
-reference. Ground expected behavior in documentation, source, or a known-good
-version when available. State observed impact and frequency; keep untested scope
-and suspected causes explicit.
-
-Incomplete reports and intermittent failures are welcome. If a narrative answer
-or supporting evidence is unavailable, write `NOT_ENOUGH_INFO` and explain the
-gap. Clearly label source-only findings and proposed checks; do not claim runtime
-reproduction or results you did not observe. A root-cause analysis or fix is not
-required to report a problem. Documentation reports should identify the relevant
-passage or missing guidance and explain the correction or confusion.
-
-Feature and design proposals can start with a problem and desired outcome.
-Examples, prior art, and measurements help when available; ideas without them
-are welcome. Maintainers can investigate reports and help resolve open questions.
-Human ownership and readiness declarations apply to PRs as described below.
-
-## Pull request ownership and readiness
-
-AI-assisted contributions are welcome. Every PR must have a human owner who
-takes responsibility for the complete change, including code, tests,
-documentation, and claims produced with AI assistance. The PR author is the
-owner unless another human is named in the PR and explicitly accepts ownership.
-These requirements also apply to maintainer-authored PRs.
-
-Before requesting maintainer review, the human owner must:
-
-- Review the final diff and relevant existing code. Be able to explain the
-  problem, the chosen approach, how it fits REA, and meaningful edge cases.
-- Provide evidence that the change works. Summarize what was checked, the
-  observed results, and meaningful gaps in the PR body. Use focused tests,
-  representative CLI/MCP output, CI artifacts, screenshots, or other checks
-  appropriate to the change. For fixes, show the original failure and why the
-  regression coverage catches it when practical. Documentation-only changes
-  can use source, link, or rendered-document checks. Label source-derived
-  conclusions and proposed checks accurately; never report an unrun check as
-  passing. Follow the [verification requirements](#development-feedback-and-pr-verification)
-  for required checks and real-provider coverage.
-- Complete the **Author readiness** declaration in the PR template, explicitly
-  stating that the PR is ready for initial review.
-
-Keep the PR description concise and current. Explain the problem, observable
-outcome, approach, and useful evidence; link long logs or put them in optional
-details. Address actionable automated review findings and explain disagreements.
-Human ownership and review remain required when CI or an automated reviewer
-reports success. Readiness requests maintainer review; it does not grant scope
-approval or permission to merge.
-
-Draft status is optional. Draft PRs may request early feedback with open questions
-and incomplete checks. Agents preserve the current draft status unless asked to
-change it; missing readiness declarations or later updates do not require a PR
-to become a draft.
-
-Leave the readiness declaration unchecked until the human owner has completed
-it. The declaration records initial readiness; later pushes do not invalidate
-it or require another human sign-off. Keep the PR description and affected
-validation current as work changes. AI agents must leave human declarations to
-the human owner and must not attest to a human review on their behalf.
-
-The `PR readiness` check reports pending for drafts and requires a named human
-owner and all three template declarations for non-drafts. It checks that the
-declaration is filled, not whether the code or evidence is correct. Existing PRs
-can copy the **Author readiness** section from the current template.
-Open PRs must have distinct head commits because GitHub shares commit statuses.
-
-Maintainers enable merge enforcement after the workflow is merged: run
-`gh workflow run pr-readiness.yml -f pull_request_number=NUMBER` for existing
-open PRs, then add `PR readiness` from GitHub Actions to the branch's required
-status checks alongside its existing checks. Deploy the workflow to each
-protected target branch before requiring it there. The workflow reads PR
-metadata using trusted default-branch code and writes only a commit status.
-
-Maintainers may return a PR to the author or close it when the problem is
-unsupported, validation is missing, or the owner cannot explain the change.
-Contributors are responsible for completing this work before requesting review.

-
-When `push_adb_file` receives an existing directory, adb places the local file
-inside it under the local basename; Evidence reports that effective file path
-while retaining the caller's directory path in the input parameters. The
-private read-only staging copy preserves the source file's executable bits.
-
-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
-`apk_path` retain the original input path, whose contents may change later.
-Snapshot creation needs temporary disk space proportional to the input size.
-Failed snapshot cleanup remains owned and is retried before later operations
-and during shutdown.

 ## Interpret the result
 
-- **Package numeric declarations retain failures.** `inspect_adb_package`
-  admits the first valid `userId` or `appId` as `user_id`: a nonnegative safe
-  integer, including zero. A null value means no valid declaration was found.
-  Malformed declarations before or after a valid value remain in
-  `numeric_issues`: the first ten issues with command, field, reason and original
-  `raw_line`, plus the exact `total`. Reasons are `invalid_format` or
-  `unsafe_integer`. Any issue makes package coverage partial; existing section
-  omissions can also make it partial. `version_code` remains exact source text.
-- **Display nulls preserve uncertainty.** `inspect_adb_display` admits positive
-  safe integers. Absent or malformed optional values are null; `numeric_issues`
-  distinguishes malformed declarations from absence. It keeps the first ten
-  issues and exact total, with command, field, original line and reason
-  (`invalid_format`, `unsafe_integer` or `nonpositive`). The last recognized
-  labeled declaration wins, even when malformed. A physical-density label
-  suppresses bare-number fallback even when malformed; without that label, the
-  first unsigned bare number wins, including zero or an unsafe integer that
-  leaves the value null. Display coverage is complete only with known physical
-  density and no numeric issues. Missing or malformed required physical size
-  produces a protocol failure with `details.partial_observation`: an
-  `inspect_adb_display` observation from provider `adb`, reason
-  `physical_size_absent` or `physical_size_malformed`, and a `result` retaining
-  client, serial, optional display facts, numeric issues, null physical size
-  and partial coverage.
 - **Directory names retain whitespace and newlines.** Symlink targets do too,
   including trailing newlines. Records containing invalid UTF-8 remain as
   labelled hex in `unparsed_lines` and make directory coverage partial.
 - **Inferences carry their basis.** Device `kind` reports
   `kind_basis` (serial prefix or USB transport); APK `role` reports
-  `role_basis: file_name`; `emulator_observed` is derived from the build's
-  `ro.kernel.qemu` property: `true` only when its value is `"1"`, `false` for
-  any other reported value, and `null` when the property is absent. The raw
-  property value remains available in `properties`.
+  `role_basis: file_name`; `emulator_observed` is the build's own
+  `ro.kernel.qemu` value, `null` when absent.
 - **Device paths are not host paths.** `base_apk_device_path` values live on
   the device filesystem. Only pulls and captures produce host-local paths,

   while POSIX hosts retain valid POSIX filenames such as names with spaces or
   colons. A package pull checks reported names against the destination
   filesystem before pulling, and refuses names that would share a local path.
-- **Package path refusals are diagnosable.** Refusals from `pull_adb_package`
-  return `unreadable_output` with `retryable: false`, keep the `pm path` output
-  in `details.captured_output`, and name the refusal in `details.reason`.
-  `unsafe_device_path` lists refused entries in
-  `details.diagnostics.rejected_paths` as `{device_path, reason}`;

-  `file_name`, and filesystem `error_code`. Diagnostics retain raw device
-  strings, while the caller-facing message escapes invisible and bidirectional
-  characters so they cannot hide text or reorder the path.
 - **Splits are part of the answer.** `pm path` enumerates the base APK and
   every installed split; pulls cover the whole set. System packages whose
   APKs keep other names report the `unknown` role rather than guessing.
 - **Partial results keep facts.** Failed individual pulls return successful
   artifacts with `coverage: "partial"` and per-file `failures`. Listings

-`inspect_android_package` also returns a static inventory of declared
-activities, aliases, services, receivers and providers from the decoded

-relative name only when the manifest package is known and the resolved copy
-fits the UTF-8 byte budget. An unresolved package or exhausted name budget
-retains the declared name and marks the inventory partial. Empty component
-names and names with forbidden DEX characters retain their raw spelling and

-are preserved when resolving component names and matching alias targets.
-Whitespace in the manifest package is rejected by its separate package grammar.
-Component permissions inherit the application
-permission when no component permission is declared, except an activity alias
-with no permission: Android documents that case as requiring no permission
-through the alias. `permission_source` distinguishes a local declaration,

-report. A selected page can answer a narrower question in the acquisition call:

-```json

-Collections are `signers`, `digests` and declared `lineage` nodes. `ids`,

-`fields: []` retains identity and relationship links. IDs include the complete
-APK digest, scheme and source ordinal; child records retain `signer_id` and

-Lineage pages expose `previous_id` when selected. Certificate fingerprints can
-be composed across versions without treating a declaration as verified identity.
-
-Page coverage describes examined declared records. Exhausting a page does not
-establish certificate authenticity, platform acceptance, v1 entry coverage or a
-verified rotation. Partial decoding and its reason remain visible even when a
-lineage page contains no rows. A weak cache reuses validated immutable report
-facts; each read checks its parent subject, and new file inspections read again.
-
-CLI defaults to complete delivery. A compact one-shot response requires a complete

-## What it reports
-
-- **Schemes present:** v1 (JAR signing, from the central directory), and the
-  APK Signing Block's v2, v3 and v3.1. v1 follows apksig's selection: entries
-  under `META-INF/` at any depth ending in `.SF`, or in `.RSA`/`.DSA`/`.EC`
-  (case-sensitive). v1 is `present` only when a signature block has its
-  matching `.SF` file (`META-INF/x/CERT.RSA` pairs with `META-INF/x/CERT.SF`);
-  `signature_files` and `block_files` list every candidate either way.
-- **Per v1 signer** (each block paired with its `.SF`): REA inflates the block
-  and reads its PKCS#7 `SignedData`. `certificate` is the certificate the
-  block's one `SignerInfo` names by `issuerAndSerialNumber` or
-  `subjectKeyIdentifier` (not by position), with the same facts and raw-DER
-  SHA-256 as a v2/v3 signer, so a v1-only APK can be fingerprinted and
-  clustered with v2/v3-signed ones. apksig resolves only
-  `issuerAndSerialNumber`, so its v1 verification fails for a block whose
-  `SignerInfo` uses `subjectKeyIdentifier`: REA still reports the declared
-  certificate (`identified_by: subject-key-identifier`), adds a limitation,
-  and treats that signer as unknown in `v1_signers_match_block_signers`. `certificates` lists every certificate the
-  block carries (SHA-256 and subject) and `signer_infos` gives each
-  `SignerInfo`'s certificate and digest/signature algorithm OIDs. The PKCS#7
-  `SignedData` envelope is read as BER, including constructed signature OCTET
-  STRINGs; each embedded certificate is still interpreted as DER by the X.509
-  owner. Issuer matching preserves the encoded Name and also admits equivalent
-  ASCII PrintableString/UTF8String values for CN, C, L, ST, O and OU: case and
-  repeated/edge spaces are normalized, RDN sequence order is preserved, and
-  attribute order inside one multivalued RDN is ignored. Other name forms
-  require exact encoded identity; semantic equivalence remains unestablished.
-  `certificate` is `null` when the block has more than one `SignerInfo` (with
-  nothing verified there is no single signer) or names a certificate it does
-  not carry. A block that cannot be read (malformed ASN.1, an unsupported
-  compression method, Zip64 sizes, a local header that disagrees with the
-  central directory on the name, data-descriptor flag, CRC-32 or a size, as
-  apksig refuses it, or over a bound) keeps its names and carries
-  `decode_error`; it is never reported as an absent signer. apksig ignores
-  the ZIP encryption flag (bit 0), so a block that sets it is read as stored:
-  the PKCS#7 decoding decides (bytes that really are encrypted fail to
-  decode), and a limitation names the block.
-  apksig rejects the v1 signature of an archive whose central directory
-  holds any name more than once ("Duplicate entry"). REA checks every entry:
-  a limitation names the first few duplicates (JSON-quoted; a name over 256
-  bytes is cut there and its stored length given) and counts the rest, and a
-  signer whose block, `.SF` or `META-INF/MANIFEST.MF` name is duplicated
-  (one signer per block name) carries `decode_error`
-  `duplicate entry: <name>`, so a duplicated manifest marks every signer.
-  A duplicate outside those names leaves the signers as declared.
-  Names are compared as apksig compares them, as Java strings decoded from
-  UTF-8: malformed bytes become U+FFFD, so `dup\xff` and `dup\xfe` are one
-  name (apksigner: `Duplicate entry: dup�`). REA reproduces Java's
-  replacement rather than WHATWG `TextDecoder`'s; the two differ for encoded
-  surrogates (`ED A0..BF`), which Java replaces as one unit. This was checked
-  against OpenJDK 25's `new String(bytes, UTF_8)` on about 300,000 malformed
-  and well-formed sequences, including a leading byte-order mark, which Java
-  keeps; other Java runtimes are not checked. The same
-  decoding names v1 entries and compares a local header's name with the
-  central directory's; as in apksig, a local name longer in bytes than the
-  directory's is refused before decoding. apksig takes the record count from the classic
-  end-of-central-directory record's 16-bit field and ignores a Zip64 count,
-  so it reads only the first 65,535 records of a larger directory: the
-  limitation then says so, counts as duplicates for apksig only names whose
-  second copy lies within those records, and names separately those
-  duplicated only past them. REA still reads v1 signing entries, and flags
-  duplicated signing names, from every record, so past record 65,535 it
-  reports signers apksig would not see.
-  Bytes after the block's `ContentInfo` are ignored, as apksig's BER parser
-  ignores them, and a limitation names the block and their count.
-- **Per signer:** the certificate's **SHA-256 fingerprint over the raw embedded
-  DER** (the same value `apksigner --print-certs` prints), plus subject, issuer,
-  serial, ISO 8601 validity and public-key algorithm when the X.509 parser can
-  read the exact carried DER (each is `null` otherwise). The parser's returned
-  DER must equal those bytes before readable facts are combined with their
-  fingerprint; embedded PEM text and trailing data cannot select a different
-  certificate. Raw signature algorithm IDs, declared
-  digest hex and digest algorithms, signature lengths and public-key length; and for
-  v3/v3.1 the signer's declared min/max SDK.

-  first. Each node carries its certificate and the capability flags **retained
-  by that node's own certificate** after rotation (installed data, shared UID,
-  permission, rollback, auth). A lineage attribute that cannot be decoded is
-  reported with `decode_error`, never silently emptied.
-- **Source stamp:** whether a source-stamp block is present and the stamp
-  certificate it declares (the V2 stamp block is preferred over V1, as apksig
-  does). `certificate` is `null` when no stamp is present, or when the block
-  could not be decoded and `decode_error` says why. Stamp signatures are not
-  verified.
-- **Declared digest consistency:** for SHA-256/SHA-512 digests, REA recomputes
-  the v2/v3 content digest and reports `matches_apk` per digest and
-  `posture.self_consistent`. This only shows that the **declared** digest
-  equals the digest of the current bytes. It is **not a signature
-  verification**: anyone who changes the bytes can recompute the digest and
-  write it into the signed data, and REA still reports `true` while
-  `apksigner verify` rejects the APK. A changed byte with an unchanged
-  declared digest reads `false`.
-- **Posture** (derived from the facts above):
-  - `v1_only`: v1 is present and no v2/v3/v3.1 block is. The v1
-    `X-Android-APK-Signed` marker is not read, so this cannot distinguish an
-    APK signed only with v1 from one whose v2/v3 block was removed.
-  - `schemes_agree_on_signer` (observed): every present block scheme presents
-    the same _set_ of signer certificates. An extra signer in one scheme is
-    disagreement; a signer without a certificate makes it `null` (unknown).
-    Build-tools 33+ rotate through v3.1 by default, so a rotated app usually
-    reads `false` here and `true` below.
-  - `signer_change_declared_by_rotation` (declared): the signers differ, but
-    each appears in a lineage the APK declares. Read the two together: a
-    rotated APK shows `false` / `true`; signers that differ with no declared
-    lineage containing them show `false` / `false`. It is `null` when a
-    signer's identity is unknown, or when the signers differ and a declared
-    lineage could not be decoded.
-  - `v1_signers_match_block_signers` (observed): the v1 signer certificates
-    equal what the lowest block scheme that has signers (v2, else v3, else
-    v3.1) expects v1 to carry. That is its signer set, except that a v3/v3.1
-    signer declaring a rotation lineage expects the lineage's first
-    (original) certificate, as apksig requires. `false` is notable: the JAR
-    signature names a different key than the block signature. A key rotation
-    keeps v1 (and v2) on the original key, so it reads `true` while
-    `schemes_agree_on_signer` reads `false`, with or without v2. `null` when
-    v1 or a block scheme is absent, any signer's identity is unknown (a
-    `decode_error`, a `null` certificate or a `subjectKeyIdentifier`
-    `SignerInfo`), or the lineage's original certificate cannot be
-    identified; a limitation then says why.
-  - `strongest_scheme`, `rotation_present`, `source_stamp_present`,
-    `self_consistent`.
-
-## What it does not claim
-
-This is **declared identity and digest consistency, not trust**. No signature
-is cryptographically verified (including the v1 PKCS#7 signature and the
-`.SF`/`MANIFEST.MF` digests, so a v1 signer is reported even where `keytool`
-or `apksigner` reject the archive), certificate chains and revocation are not
-evaluated, and nothing here says an app is authentic. `self_consistent: true`
-means the declared digest equals the digest of the current bytes; it is not a
-signature verification, and it does not prove who made the bytes. Rotation-lineage node signatures are not verified either, so a lineage is
-what the APK _declares_: an attacker who re-signs an APK can declare any
-lineage, which is why `signer_change_declared_by_rotation` is kept apart from
-the observed agreement. SHA-256 identifies exact bytes, not authenticity.
-
-Not yet read: v4 `.apk.idsig` (a sibling file), verity (`0x0421`/`0x0423`/`0x0425`) digests (reported with
-`matches_apk: null`), and the v1 `X-Android-APK-Signed` marker.
-
-## Bounds and errors
-
-The archive is read once, bounded at 512 MiB, without following symlinks and
-with change detection. ZIP tail offsets, the central-directory size and signing
-block spans used by the reader are checked against their containing sections,
-including the complete central-directory extent before ZIP end records. A process-wide queue permits
-one active whole-file inspection and eight pending scans across provider
-instances; pending scans retain no APK bytes and can be cancelled with their
-original reason. Further requests receive a capacity error. The active slot
-is held through parsing and cleanup. Signers per scheme, v1 signers and
-lineage nodes are capped at 32 each as resource admission limits, not format
-maxima (apksig separately accepts at most 10 v1 signers). Each v1 block is
-inflated to at most 1 MiB, and its BER is read within 32 levels of nesting and
-65,536 elements, with at most 32 certificates and 32 `SignerInfo`s; BER
-indefinite lengths and constructed OCTET STRING fields are accepted. Embedded
-X.509 certificates retain their DER requirement. The report's size is
-bounded from above by those counts before anything is materialised, and the exact
-serialized size of the report together with its limitations (which repeat
-archive names) is then checked against an 8 MiB output budget (the exact check
-is authoritative); an over-budget report is refused, not truncated.
-
-The whole-file reader allocates the selected snapshot and bounded read scratch;
-total process memory exceeds the selected file's size. It also computes the complete
-file SHA-256, so inspection is not header-only. Content digests are recomputed
-at most once per SHA-256/SHA-512 algorithm during one inspection. Input,
-inflation, decoded-record and serialized-output bounds keep work finite;
-resource refusals are distinct from malformed format errors.
-
-If the stable read completes but closing its descriptor fails or is cancelled,
-the error retains `details.partial_observation` with the selected path, complete
-file SHA-256 and byte count. These facts describe the acquired file; they do not
-establish any decoded signing facts. Failed cleanup remains visible until the
-provider releases the descriptor on a cleanup retry.
-
-A file that is not a ZIP is refused as an unsupported target. A damaged ZIP
-(local headers but no end-of-central-directory), a central directory that
-cannot be walked or whose declared record count does not account for all of
-its bytes, or a malformed signing block or signer is an input error naming the
-offset or scheme and reason. Zip64 tail damage includes a missing required
-locator, an impossible locator disk/count pair, a fixed end record that does
-not fit before its locator, or an incorrect end-record signature. These are
-input errors, not evidence of an unsupported format. Coherent multi-disk
-locator metadata and 64-bit offsets/counts/sizes beyond the reader's safe
-integer range remain unsupported. The locator offset is disk-relative, so
-multi-disk metadata is checked before applying local file bounds. This follows
-the record fields in [PKWARE APPNOTE 6.3.10, sections 4.3.14–4.3.15](https://pkware.cachefly.net/webdocs/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT);
-it does not establish full validation of Zip64 versions or extensible data.
-Signer framing includes signature records, the public-key field and matching
-signed/outer v3 SDK ranges. Suffix bytes beyond known
-fields are counted as uninterpreted, as Android readers may ignore extensions;
-their presence does not establish malformed signing.
-When the central directory is not immediately followed by
-the end-of-central-directory record (a declared-size mismatch or a Zip64
-record), the content digest is not recomputed and a limitation says so. A
-rotation attribute that cannot be decoded still counts as `rotation_present`
-(the attribute exists) and carries its `decode_error`.
-
-Verified by the `verify:apk-signature` real lane. It builds a real minimal APK
-with `aapt2`, signs it with the SDK's `apksigner` (default v2+v3, v1-only with
-RSA and EC keys, v1+v2+v3 on a legacy target, a rotated key lineage with and
-without v1, rotation carried by v3.1, a source stamp, and a copy
-with one changed byte), and cross-checks REA against
-`apksigner verify --print-certs`, `apksigner lineage --print-certs` and
-`keytool -printcert -jarfile` through the CLI and MCP.
-
-The real-toolchain CI lane uses pinned, checksum-verified Build Tools 36.1.0
-and platform 36 oracle files in its job workspace. It requires the existing
-host JDK and runs `npm run verify:apk-signature -- --require-tools`; absent

 ## Interpret the result

-# Apple IPS crash reports
-
-`inspect_apple_ips` / `inspect-apple-ips` answers whether one selected local
-Apple `.ips` file is a crash report (`bug_type` string `"309"`), which process,
-exception, and termination facts that report records, which threads and
-`usedImages` rows it lists, and which documented crash classes its strings
-match. It reads the file without executing a target and does not require Xcode,
-atos, a disassembler, or pwntools.
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-apple-ips /absolute/path/to/report.ips --json
-```
-
-The CLI resolves relative paths against the caller's working directory. MCP
-requires an absolute filesystem path and preserves that exact selection:
-
-```json
-{
-  "name": "inspect_apple_ips",
-  "arguments": { "path": "/artifacts/report.ips" }
-}
-```
-
-## Observations
-
-The inline Evidence result contains the artifact path, SHA-256, and byte length.
-`metadata` is the first-line JSON object. `bug_type` stays a string. The crash
-body is parsed only when that string is `"309"`. Other types, including `"288"`
-stackshots, return no crash result.
-
-`process`, `exception`, `termination`, `faulting_thread`, `threads`, and
-`images` reproduce documented body fields when present, including each image's
-`name` and each frame's `symbolLocation` (as `symbol_location`, the byte offset
-from the start of `recorded_symbol`). Integers keep their
-decimal literals and a hexadecimal form, including arm64e registers above
-2^53. Frame roles follow the recorded frame index: row zero of the resolved
-faulting thread is `faulting_instruction`, row zero of other threads is
-`current_instruction`, and later rows are `return_address`. Each runtime
-address uses that row's own image base and offset. The recorded `inline` flag
-does not supply a missing offset or authorize borrowing another row's address.
-When `faultingThread` is missing or does not resolve to a recorded thread
-object, row-zero roles are `unknown`; the recorded lookup remains available.
-A translated process records Rosetta's registers in a nested
-`threadState.rosetta` object; each one is reported as `rosetta.<name>` and
-counts toward the register budget. A [public ReportCrash `.ips` log](https://github.com/Mortennn/Dozer/issues/189)
-shows `rosetta.tmp2`, `tmp1`, and `tmp0` beside ordinary x86 registers. The
-test fixture quotes that register excerpt inside an authored report body; it
-does not generate a new Rosetta crash during the test.
-Observed JSON strings retain `""`; `null` means the field was missing or JSON
-`null`. This includes image paths, frame symbols, process text, and the older
-string `osVersion` form. Unlisted JSON keys and generic register names also
-retain empty spellings. An empty image architecture remains recorded as `""`
-while `uuid_unknown` stays true, since that spelling does not establish an
-architecture. An empty UUID is malformed, so its exact spelling appears in
-`coverage.type_mismatches` and its canonical UUID remains unknown.
-`process.os_version` keeps the producer's dictionary (`train`, `build`,
-`release_type`, `is_embedded`) or the older string form. Image UUIDs are uppercase 8-4-4-4-12; an all-zero UUID
-or a missing or empty `arch` is `uuid_unknown`. Image `source` letters keep their
-documented meaning (`P` process, `S` shared cache, `C` shared cache library,
-`K` kernel, `U` kernel cache, `T` kernel text exec, `A` absolute). Keys the
-documentation does not list remain in `unlisted_keys` or `unlisted_body_keys`.
-
-Each frame's `image_index` refers to its entry in `images`. Image architecture,
-UUID and `uuid_unknown` are retained once on that image. Resolve the reference
-when using those facts; an absent or out-of-range index leaves the image
-unknown. This avoids repeating image text for every stack frame.
-
-A present value whose JSON type differs from the documented one is never read
-as absent: it is listed in `coverage.type_mismatches` with its path, the
-expected type, and the observed type, and `coverage.status` becomes
-`partial`. A crash body without `threads` or `usedImages` is also `partial`.
-Malformed image UUID strings likewise make coverage partial; their exact spelling
-is retained in the mismatch's `recorded_value`, while the canonical image UUID
-remains unknown. Both 32 hexadecimal digits and canonical hyphenated UUIDs are accepted.
-Unresolved thread/image references also make coverage partial. A rejected
-integer lookup keeps its exact decimal literal in `recorded_integer`, including
-negative values and values above uint32. Valid uint32 lookup values remain in
-`faulting_thread` or `image_index` even when the referenced row is unavailable.
-
-`classification` matches only documented SIGKILL codes (compared by their
-canonical hexadecimal form), `EXC_GUARD` subtypes,
-pointer-authentication suffixes, and dyld missing-library strings. A report
-that matches none of those rules is `unclassified`.
-
-Opened Mach-O and dSYM UUID joins remain unobserved. Symbol names printed
-inside the report are recorded claims and are not verified. Linux ELF cores
-use the separate [recorded crash](recorded-crashes.md) workflow.
-
-## Limits and failures
-
-The selected file is limited to 1 MiB by default (16 MiB maximum). At most 256
-threads, 8192 frames, 1024 `usedImages` rows, and 16384 `threadState`
-register slots are examined by default (4096 / 65536 / 4096 / 262144
-maximum). Budgets are checked before each row is parsed, and body members the
-report does not interpret are syntax-checked without being kept. Fixed
-allowances bound JSON nesting (64 levels), unlisted key names per object
-(1024), and `termination.reasons` entries (256). Malformed metadata, a
-truncated crash body, invalid UTF-8, a NUL in the text, and exhausted budgets
-fail without partial success.
-
-`max_integer_text_bytes` (`--max-integer-text-bytes` in the CLI) separately
-bounds retained decimal and hexadecimal integer text, including every derived
-runtime address and rejected lookup literal. Its default is 8 MiB of UTF-16 text storage and its maximum is
-64 MiB. Each appearance counts, even when an object could be shared in memory
-but would be serialized more than once. The parser reserves a conservative
-upper bound before numeric conversion or address expansion, then releases the
-unused reservation after each value. It reuses the parsed source integer when
-the same image base contributes to many frames.
-
-Raise this per-call allowance on the next call when more room is needed; no
-restart is required. File-size and row budgets do not raise it. This allowance
-is separate from JSON wire size, MCP response limits and the client's receive
-buffer. An exhausted allowance reports a typed resource error without partial
-success or truncated integer facts.
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-apple-ips /absolute/path/to/report.ips --max-integer-text-bytes 16777216 --json
-```
-
-This workflow does not execute a target, launch atos, or search for dSYMs.

-## Ghidra process failures
-
-When output from the failing Ghidra startup or operation reports
-`java.lang.OutOfMemoryError`, REA returns `resource_constraint`. Java heap or GC
-overhead exhaustion includes heap-specific recovery advice. Metaspace and array
-size failures do not recommend increasing the heap; native-thread exhaustion is
-reported as a capacity constraint with unknown limits.
-
-`configured_jvm_max_heap` records the explicit `-Xmx` value selected by REA's
-launch builder. It is a configuration fact, not measured memory use or proof of
-the effective JVM limit; JVM environment options may affect that limit.
-When a Windows script wrapper selects the JVM, this value remains unknown.
-Historical stdout and stderr remain available, but classification uses only the
-failing operation's `failure_output`. Retained stdout and stderr share an 8 MiB
-budget, but every drained byte is scanned for `java.lang.OutOfMemoryError`:
-`failure_output.observed_oome` records the latest confirmed token's bounded line per stream from
-the failing operation, with its byte offset, even after the budget is spent. These observations own OOME detection; retained text that ends at a class-name prefix cannot confirm a complete token. `line_complete` distinguishes a known line end from an incomplete trailing context; `invalid_utf8` marks replacement-decoded context.
-Incomplete operation output without an observed OOME keeps the original failure code and explains that a memory cause cannot be ruled out. Incompleteness alone does not confirm a memory constraint or justify heap-specific advice. Token context stays within the failing operation's checkpoint; a class-name prefix in a different identifier is not OOME evidence. A trailing bare token requires an observed stream EOF to establish its boundary.
-Output draining waits at most one second,
-subject to earlier cancellation or the startup deadline. `output_incomplete`
-marks a snapshot taken before stream closure; cleanup ownership remains with
-the session until release succeeds.
-
-A kernel or container OOM killer ends Ghidra with `SIGKILL` and prints no
-`OutOfMemoryError`. When a process or protocol failure records
-`exit_signal: "SIGKILL"` and no `stop_requested`, REA reports the signal
-instead of generic `rea doctor` advice. The process supervisor records
-`stop_requested: true` once REA begins stopping Ghidra, before it sends any
-signal, so REA's own SIGKILL is never reported as an outside kill.
-
-On Linux with cgroup v2, REA also reads its own cgroup's `memory.events` before
-launch and again after the kill, locating the group through the cgroup2 mount
-in `/proc/self/mountinfo`. `memory_cgroup` records the group path,
-`oom_kill_before`, `oom_kill_after` and `memory_max`. If the count rose, REA
-returns `resource_constraint` with `resource: "memory"` and `cgroup_memory_max`
-in `reported_limits`. The count covers every process in REA's cgroup and its
-child groups, which can include processes outside REA's process tree when the
-group is shared, so a rise shows that the kernel OOM killer ended a process in
-that cgroup or a child group, not which process it chose. `memory_max` is the
-limit in bytes, `"max"` when the group sets none, or `null` when it could not be
-read; a limit on a parent group is not read. The limit also covers Ghidra's
-native decompiler processes, whose number follows the available CPUs, so the
-advice does not recommend a larger Java heap. When the session had already
-completed an operation, the advice keeps the instruction to reopen the target
-with `open_binary`. Without a cgroup v2 memory group, or when the count did not
-rise, the failure stays `execution_failure` and names the signal as a possible
-out-of-memory kill.

-## Byte entropy triage
-
-`inspect_byte_entropy` / `inspect-byte-entropy` profiles any local regular file
-without an analysis engine, execution, extraction or network access.
-
-```sh
-rea inspect-byte-entropy ./firmware.bin --block-size 4096 --json
-rea inspect-byte-entropy ./firmware.bin --offset 4096 --length 65536 --json
-```
-
-```json
-{
-  "name": "inspect_byte_entropy",
-  "arguments": { "path": "/artifacts/firmware.bin", "detail": "summary" }
-}
-```
-
-Complete Evidence includes `artifact` (original path, byte size and SHA-256),
-`block_size`, `window`, `file_entropy`, `thresholds`, `blocks`, `runs` and
-`limitations`. For a 4096-byte zero-filled file, the entropy fields are:
-
-```json
-{
-  "block_size": 4096,
-  "window": { "offset": 0, "length": 4096 },
-  "file_entropy": 0,
-  "thresholds": { "high": 7.2, "low": 1 },
-  "blocks": [{ "offset": 0, "length": 4096, "entropy": 0 }],
-  "runs": [{ "offset": 0, "length": 4096, "classification": "low" }]
-}
-```
-
-Offsets and lengths are decimal byte counts. Blocks begin at the requested
-`offset` (default zero); omitted `length` extends to EOF. Explicit windows past
-EOF fail rather than silently clipping. The final block may be shorter.
-`block_size` must be a power of two from 256 through 65536, default 4096. A
-window may produce at most 32,768 block rows; larger requests fail before the
-file scan with a capacity error. Choose a shorter window or larger block size.
-SHA-256 and `file_entropy` always cover the entire file, including when a window
-is selected. Empty files and empty windows are accepted; empty entropy is zero
-by convention. The tool reads the size the file reports. A file that reports size
-0, such as a Linux `/proc` entry, returns no blocks with a limitation that the
-result does not show the file is empty. File identity, size and timestamps are checked across the read;
-detected changes produce an error rather than Evidence.
-
-Shannon entropy is reported in bits per byte from 0 to 8, rounded to four decimal
-places. Adjacent blocks with reported entropy at least 7.2 form `high` runs;
-blocks at most 1.0 form `low` runs. Other blocks interrupt runs. Entropy does not
-prove encryption, and this measure cannot distinguish encrypted from compressed
-data. Small blocks can underestimate entropy; the result is a triage clue.
-
-MCP `detail: "summary"` retains complete Evidence in the session and returns
-file entropy, block/run counts, thresholds, the selected window, and the ten
-longest runs (ties ordered by file offset). Use its `parent_evidence_id` to
-retrieve complete Evidence, or request its summary with `inspect_analysis_view`.
-The CLI returns complete Evidence through the same service. Summary detail
-requires a session capable of retaining Evidence.
-
-Reads use one block-sized buffer and a 256-entry histogram. Complete output
-can become very large because it includes one row per selected block, and
-summary delivery still retains that full list. Use a shorter length or a
-larger block size to reduce it. Full Evidence and its serialization require
-memory proportional to the number of selected blocks. The 32,768-row ceiling bounds the actual retained block objects and
-their serialized representation: a cap-sized run below produced 1,514,877
-serialized bytes and increased V8 heap use by 21.2 MiB on the measured host.
-The cap therefore bounds this output independently of file size; it is not a
-portable process-memory guarantee. Narrow the window or increase block size to
-reduce retained rows further.
-
-Local service measurement (macOS arm64, Node 24.18.0, 100,000,000-byte file,
-4096-byte blocks, file already in the OS cache): first process run took 1.113 s
-wall / 1.148 s CPU with 145.3 MiB peak RSS; a second run in the same process took
-1.015 s / 1.035 s CPU, with cumulative peak RSS 155.8 MiB. Each read 100,000,000
-bytes and produced 24,415 blocks. Measurements include Evidence construction,
-summary projection and JSON serialization, with no child processes. Complete
-Evidence serialized to 1,122,303 bytes and its summary to 2,705 bytes. A
-cap-sized 134,217,728-byte sparse file with 4096-byte blocks produced 32,768
-rows and 1,514,877 serialized bytes; V8 heap use increased by 21.2 MiB and RSS
-by 18.1 MiB in that process. This separate measurement used the same macOS
-arm64 host and Node version. Cold disk I/O, token counts and an agent
-investigation were not measured; there was no previous equivalent tool to
-benchmark. These figures do not establish a portable peak-memory bound,
-constant memory for retained Evidence or faster agent task completion.
-
-## Portable native exports
-
-`inspect_native_exports` / `inspect-native-exports` reads the export table of an
-explicit PE or ELF image on any supported host, without an active target,
-native engine, `objdump` or Windows SDK:
-
-```sh
-rea inspect-native-exports ./runtimes/linux-x64/native/libexample.so --json
-```
-
-```json
-{
-  "name": "inspect_native_exports",
-  "arguments": { "path": "/artifacts/native/example.dll" }
-}
-```
-
-The complete Evidence identifies the stable artifact snapshot by path, byte
-count and SHA-256. Complete delivery remains the default. For a small initial
-MCP reply, select `detail: "summary"`; this retains the complete Evidence and
-returns artifact identity, table coverage and row counts. Use its
-`normalized_result.parent_evidence_id` with `inspect_analysis_view`:
-
-```json
-{
-  "source": {
-    "kind": "retained-evidence",
-    "evidence_id": "ev_<parent digest>"
-  },
-  "view": {
-    "kind": "native-exports",
-    "collection": "exports",
-    "names": ["selected_name"],
-    "fields": ["name"],
-    "offset": 0,
-    "limit": 32
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Names match exactly and preserve every same-name version or alias. Optional
-`indices` selects original row positions, intersecting a name filter when both
-are supplied; empty filters select nothing. `source_index` always remains and,
-with the parent ID, identifies the original export or issue row. Fields default
-to the complete row; an empty field list returns only its identity. ELF `name`
-selection also returns raw-byte and encoding qualifications. Fields from the
-other format are rejected. `collection: "issues"` pages the complete diagnostic
-records, with optional original indices. Offset and limit default to 0 and 64
-and apply to matching rows in original order.
-
-View `coverage` describes the selected page; `summary.coverage` or
-`exports.coverage` preserves source-table coverage. An exhausted or empty page
-does not make a partial source complete. Retained views never reopen the file.
-The CLI uses the same projector and requires a durable bundle for a summary:
-
-```sh
-rea inspect-native-exports ./libexample.so --detail summary --evidence_output ./exports.bundle.json --json
-# Pass the summary's parent ID and the same view as JSON to inspect-analysis-view,
-# together with --evidence-bundle ./exports.bundle.json.
-```
-
-- PE rows reproduce the export directory: each used export-address-table slot
-  with its biased `ordinal` (`OrdinalBase` plus the slot index), one row per
-  name (aliases share an ordinal), `address`
-  as the preferred-base virtual address, or `forwarder` text when the slot
-  forwards to another DLL. Unused zero-address slots are omitted;
-  ordinal-only exports have a null `name`. The name-ordinal table stores an
-  unbiased 16-bit EAT index; reported biased ordinals may exceed 16 bits. The
-  directory's DLL name, ordinal base and timestamp are reported, and an image
-  without an export directory is a complete empty inventory.
-- ELF rows list defined `.dynsym` symbols with global, weak or GNU-unique
-  binding and default or protected visibility. Each row keeps `value`
-  (`st_value` as stored; bit 0 marks Thumb code on 32-bit ARM), `size`, `type`
-  and `binding`. ELF string tables do not declare a text encoding. Names that
-  contain non-ASCII bytes are decoded as UTF-8 when those bytes form valid
-  UTF-8; `name_utf8_decodable` records whether the non-ASCII name bytes are
-  valid UTF-8 and `name_bytes_base64` retains those exact bytes (`null` for
-  ASCII names). When they are not valid UTF-8, `name` uses a byte-preserving
-  Latin-1 mapping and the raw bytes remain available. Older retained results
-  report null for the newly added encoding fields. `version` is null for an
-  unversioned symbol. A versioned
-  symbol reports its GNU index, a name resolved from `.gnu.version_d` or
-  `.gnu.version_r`, the corresponding `name_bytes_base64` and
-  `name_utf8_decodable` facts, and the `hidden` flag from `.gnu.version`.
-  Version names use the same UTF-8-when-valid, otherwise byte-preserving
-  Latin-1 display mapping as symbol names; ELF does not declare either
-  string's text encoding. Older retained results report null for the added
-  version-name encoding fields. `"unknown"`
-  means the symbol-version table could not be read. A hidden version is not
-  the default version that a by-name `dlsym` lookup selects.
-  Definition names take precedence when both tables name the same index.
-
-Unreadable names, out-of-range name ordinals and unreadable forwarders are
-listed in `issues`, their entries are not reported, and coverage is `partial`.
-PE export names are bounded null-terminated byte strings and may continue
-across adjacent file-backed section mappings when the virtual bytes are
-unambiguous. Gaps, zero-fill and conflicting mappings remain unreadable names.
-Unresolved symbol versions keep their rows: the version name is null when no
-definition or requirement names the index, and `version` is
-`"unknown"` when the version table cannot be read; coverage is likewise
-`partial`. A dynamic symbol table without its null entry is malformed. An ELF
-without section headers is `unsupported`. With section headers, a missing
-`SHT_DYNSYM` section is also `unsupported` when a `PT_DYNAMIC` segment is
-observed, including a directory containing only the inactive null section.
-Enumerating dynamic symbols from that segment is not implemented. A present
-section directory with neither a dynamic symbol table nor a dynamic segment
-reports a complete empty inventory. Mach-O exports are reported by
-`inspect_macho`.
-
-`max_file_bytes` defaults to 256 MiB (maximum 512 MiB; CLI `--max-file-bytes`).
-Export directories in PE headers are read like those in sections. An export or
-dynamic symbol table above 262144 entries, more than 262144 rows, or more than
-16 MiB of retained names fails without partial success. Export rows do not establish that a symbol is reachable, safe to call
-or loaded at runtime.

-For `analyze_web_bundle`, each `webmcp_declarations` entry's
-`schema_property_names` is a source-derived projection of statically known own
-property keys, not schema validation. `schema_property_names_coverage` reports
-how complete that projection is: `complete` means a literal properties object
-was fully enumerated (including an empty literal); `partial` means a literal
-object was available but some computed or spread membership was unresolved,
-and the name array retains keys that were known; `unknown` means the schema or
-properties owner could not be enumerated as an object literal, including
-explicit non-object values; `not_present` means no effective schema or own
-`properties` member was present after the `inputSchema ?? input_schema` alias
-selection. `not_present` describes this projection only: it does not validate a

-Passive DOM comparison checks complete node inventories and complete frame
-parent/child structure independently. Frame IDs and sibling enumeration order
-are capture-local and do not establish a change; duplicate IDs, missing parents,
-and cyclic ancestry remain unknown. A complete frame difference can still prove
-change when DOM nodes are incomplete, and vice versa. Partial DOM or metadata
-collection digests do not prove modification: a missing node or link can result
-from a protocol omission. Rejected DOM facts also mark derived URL and agent-hint
-metadata incomplete, while valid facts from other nodes and documents remain
-available in the capture.

-Page network and console coverage starts independently at the first observed
-event from that domain or its successful enable acknowledgment. The capture's
-lifecycle start is earlier and does not establish domain readiness. Events
-received before the enable reply remain part of the observation.
-
-Worker output is a final target-inventory snapshot. `attached` describes any
-debugging client, not an REA-owned observing session. The selected page-session
-collector does not collect worker-session requests, console events, or scripts,
-and workers that disappeared before the snapshot may be missing; worker
-coverage is therefore attach-limited. Missing ownership metadata is reported as
-`unattributed_target` with unavailable worker attribution, separately
-from a proven foreign owner excluded as `out_of_target_scope`. A shared origin
-alone establishes neither relationship.

-### WebMCP discovery prerequisites
-
-`discover_webmcp_tools` reports only what the attached browser's experimental
-`WebMCP` CDP domain exposes. When a browser rejects the unknown domain, the
-result reports `status: "unavailable"`. Whether a page can register tools at
-all depends on several conditions that are not interchangeable:
-
-- A site's own origin-trial token can enable the API for that origin
-  **provided the trial is still active, the browser version and platform
-  support it, and user settings permit it** — token presence alone is not a
-  guarantee. The trial is announced for Chrome 149 and later.
-- The `WebMCPTesting` feature — `--enable-features=WebMCPTesting` at launch, or
-  `chrome://flags/#enable-webmcp-testing` in a normal profile — enables the
-  API page-side for that browser instance, independent of per-site tokens.
-  In one pilot run, a site whose registration code was present but whose
-  served token was scoped for third-party use registered 0 tools under a
-  default launch and 4 under the flag; that the token did not enroll the
-  first-party document is consistent with this but is an inference, not a
-  measured Chrome behavior.
-
-In Chrome 154 specifically (one tested version), `WebMCP.enable` answered
-under a default launch — the debug domain was not flag-gated in that run.
-Other versions may differ, so an unattributed zero-tool result should be
-read as registration state only after domain availability is confirmed.
-
-Discovery is attach-only: the command needs a reachable loopback CDP endpoint
-and a target ID from `list_browser_targets`, and it never navigates, reloads,
-or evaluates the page. Observe the page in the state you want to measure;
-registered tools reflect what the protocol delivered. If an in-scope subframe
-already exists when discovery attaches, `webmcp_tools` remains attach-limited:
-Chromium replay may omit its older registrations. Later live registrations
-retain their frame ownership but do not establish recovery of those missing
-descriptors. REA does not reload, evaluate, or invoke tools to fill that gap.

 Call `list_browser_targets` first because target IDs are browser-instance-specific. REA rechecks the selected target's current type and origin immediately before attaching. Without an origin filter, discovery lists all eligible pages; an individual capture defaults to the selected page's current origin.
 
 REA establishes a main-frame origin boundary before enabling Runtime, Debugger, or Network observation, rechecks it before document capture, and validates it again afterward. If the main frame navigates during final capture, REA discards the mixed result and returns `target_changed`.
-An observed navigation also takes precedence over failures from stale
-document reads, such as a script ID invalidated by reload; cancellation remains
-cancellation. Retry after navigation settles, or refresh target discovery if
-the selected page was replaced. Origin-scope refusals from page inspection,
-runtime observation, screenshots, and WebMCP discovery explain the permitted
-HTTP(S) origin scope and direct the caller to select a permitted document or
-explicitly revise `allowed_origins`. Page capture also preserves an observed
-main-frame scope violation when a later document read fails. An unresolved
-initial main frame does not establish an origin violation; its bounded startup
-retries retain a distinct refusal.
-
-Screenshot capture requires a valid main-frame identity. Malformed identity
-produces a protocol failure; a readable child frame cannot substitute for the
-main frame.
-
-The web-session timeline uses CDP monotonic seconds where the event producer
-provides a comparable timestamp; absent or invalid timestamps are `null` rather
-than a synthetic zero. Events buffered while REA samples the window boundary are
-retained only when their timestamp places them after that boundary; older events
-are excluded. A buffered event without a comparable timestamp may remain as
-contextual evidence with `timestamp: null`, accompanied by a limitation stating
-that it does not establish activity in the selected window. Main-frame scope
-enforcement still applies to contextual navigation events. Network redirect
-events retain their paired prior-hop response context when the timestamped
-next-request event falls inside the window. The pre-arm timeline buffer is bounded
-by original CDP message bytes. If clock sampling completes after that budget is
-exhausted, the operation returns `payload_limit` instead of a partial window.
-Cancellation and clock-request failures retain their own outcomes. Session
-`load_failed` rows require a previously observed main-frame `Document` request;
-subresources, child-frame requests and failures without admitted request ownership
-are excluded. Redirects reuse their request identity, and completed/failed requests
-release it. Active request identity metadata uses the existing 8 MiB retained-event
-allowance; exhaustion fails the observation explicitly instead of guessing scope.
 
 ## Data minimization
 
-Response metadata parses repeated CDP header field lines independently. The
-Link projection retains their declarations in order. `csp.directives` lists the
-directives of every CSP policy in order, across field lines and comma-separated
-policies, without recording policy boundaries, so a directive name can repeat.
-Single-valued policy fields combine their lines as one comma-separated value,
-as RFC 9110 specifies. Each link keeps its target in `href` and
-its relationship context in `context_url` with a separate `context_scope`;
-absent `anchor` uses the response URL, while a relative `anchor` resolves
-against that URL. Anchored links remain in the projection, but a `link_rel`
-agent hint is emitted only when the resolved context matches the response URL
-before userinfo credentials are removed. Following [RFC 8288](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8288.html),
-the `rel`, `anchor`, and `type` parameters use their first occurrence, and
-quoted-pair escapes are decoded as specified by [RFC 9110 §5.6.4](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html#section-5.6.4).
-The context fields are optional when reading older saved captures. Commas
-inside URI targets or quoted parameters remain part of those values.
-Well-known-resource hints require an exact supported pathname; path case is
-preserved because a case variant may identify a different HTTP resource.
-COOP and COEP projections retain the exact declared token after validating the
-complete Structured Field Item, including parameters such as `report-to`.
-These are declarations, not an assessment of the document's effective policy;
-absent, malformed or non-token items project as `null`.
-
-Console entries, WebSocket frame summaries, and selected request/response JSON
-shape outputs share one 8 MiB retained-observation allowance per capture. Shape
-inference admits expanded path bytes before allocating those paths, including
-escaped and Unicode property names. Replacing or removing a request's shapes
-refunds their retained charges. A refused body shape preserves network metadata
-and any captured peer shape with `resource_budget_exhausted` coverage; a refused
-WebSocket frame is counted as dropped rather than reclassified as non-JSON text.
-The allowance has no runtime override. Protocol messages and JSON input parsing
-remain subject to their separate transport admission; this output allowance does
-not bound the whole process heap.
-
 REA retains local observation data and removes only URL userinfo credentials, explicitly declared scenario secrets, and values from structured credential/storage fields:
 
 - URL observations preserve the complete local URL, including query values, fragments, duplicate parameters, and their order. Only username/password userinfo is removed; malformed original URL strings remain available with `origin: null`.
 - DOM snapshots retain node types, node names, value lengths, and attribute names, but not text or attribute values.
-- Supported DOM URL attributes are projected separately as resolved destinations. Empty `action` on HTML or XHTML forms and empty `formaction` on HTML or XHTML submit controls resolve to the document URL; other relative URL attributes resolve against the captured document base.
-- Accessibility structure and reported roles are retained by default, while names and descriptions require `include_accessibility_text: true`. The browser protocol may omit an individual role; that role remains unknown for comparison. Other observed accessibility differences can still establish a change.
+- Accessibility structure and roles are retained by default, while names and descriptions require `include_accessibility_text: true`.
 - Network observations retain method, status, MIME type, size, type, initiator stack location, and complete URLs with userinfo credentials removed. Redirects reported by CDP are attached as ordered `redirects` on the one request ID, with the prior request URL, CDP response URL, method/type, response status/MIME/encoded length, request timestamp, and the next `requestWillBeSent` event timestamp. CDP delivers `redirectResponse` with that next request event, so the latter is an event boundary rather than an exact response timestamp. Redirect response headers and bodies are discarded; hops outside the selected origins are discarded with the request chain. Headers are discarded after an allowlisted projection of length/encoding, structured CSP/Link/policy fields, and untrusted agent hints. Cookies and authorization headers are never retained.
-- Request/response bodies are not requested or parsed by default. When selected, only allowed-origin JSON media types are read, converted immediately to complete value-free typed paths, types and observation counts, and discarded. Each path segment is either `{ "kind": "property", "name": "raw property name" }` or `{ "kind": "array-element" }`; array-element types include primitives and nested arrays. Literal `*` properties remain distinct from array elements. `Network.getResponseBody` is never sent unless JSON body shape capture is selected. A JSON-typed request body that CDP reports through `hasPostData` but omits from `postData`, or that cannot be parsed as JSON, makes `json_body_shapes` unavailable. That request's `body_shapes.status` is `partial`, not `included`, when only its response shape was captured. Base64 response bytes must be valid UTF-8 before JSON interpretation; invalid bytes leave the response shape unavailable and preserve any observed request shape and network metadata. Producer-decoded strings and genuine U+FFFD characters retain their reported meaning. Comparison uses body shapes only when both captures selected them, and compares request/response shapes only where both observations provide those facts. Unavailable or truncated selected coverage makes equivalence unknown; observed differences still report changed.
-  For normalized passive inputs with complete request inventories on both sides,
-  request additions and removals remain observable even when selected body shapes,
-  response metadata, or WebSocket coverage are unavailable. HTTP request and
-  WebSocket inventory coverage are evaluated separately; complete HTTP coverage
-  cannot prove a missing WebSocket connection. A missing request in a limited inventory cannot prove absence; a retained
-  request absent from a complete peer can prove a change. This comparison rule does not make live CDP's
-  attach-limited inventory complete or establish body-shape equality.
-  An unavailable HTTP resource type also leaves request identity incomplete:
-  observations with the same method and URL remain possible matches across types,
-  and identical unknown types cannot establish complete equality. Ambiguous type
-  groups cannot prove membership or content changes either: a missing type may
-  redistribute repeated requests between buckets without changing the requests.
-  Their comparison remains unknown, while independently identified groups retain
-  proven changes. Different methods/URLs and complete empty peer inventories still
-  support absence claims.
-  Relevant dropped-event counts also limit inventory completeness even when no
-  section is listed as truncated: HTTP uses `network_requests`, while WebSocket
-  uses `websocket_connections` and `websocket_frames`. Drops in other event kinds
-  and the aggregate total do not by themselves limit HTTP inventory. Proven
-  modifications remain reportable despite incomplete inventory.
-  Repeated HTTP samples retain multiplicity. A partial group that is contained
-  in a complete peer cannot prove modification, even when the omitted response
-  had different content. A retained sample absent from the complete peer can
-  prove modification. Two partial groups cannot establish response
-  correspondence from their different retained samples alone.
-  WebSocket stream inventories and connection counts likewise require complete
-  WebSocket coverage. Retained frame positions are compared only with complete
-  connection/frame inventories; matching direction/opcode sequences alone do
-  not prove alignment after drops. Redirect resource types use only shared known metadata:
-  an omitted type leaves equality unknown rather than proving a modification.
-- Console observations with a stack source retain call type, argument types, the CDP `Runtime.Timestamp` in milliseconds since Unix epoch, and source location. An absent or invalid timestamp is `null` and makes `console_events` incomplete; an observed zero remains zero. Argument types are listed by CDP argument position. An absent or non-array argument inventory is `null`, and a malformed argument keeps its position as `unknown`; either makes `console_events` incomplete, while an observed empty inventory remains `[]`. A malformed stack or top stack frame is not replaced by its caller: the console event is excluded, and a request initiator location or WebMCP `registration_source` is `null`; each is reported as `invalid_protocol_value`. This epoch-millisecond clock is separate from the monotonic-second timestamps in `observe-web-session`.

-- WebSocket observations retain direction, opcode, and payload byte length. A missing or malformed CDP opcode is returned as `null`, with opcode-dependent payload byte length and shape also `null`, and marks `websocket_frames` incomplete. Missing or wrong-typed payload data is not treated as empty; its byte length is `null`, and a text payload shape is unknown. Numeric opcode `0` and an observed empty payload remain distinct from missing data. Opcode is nullable in the public inspection schema, so clients must handle unknown protocol values. When shape capture is selected, text messages are classified as text or complete value-free JSON shape; binary bytes, hashes, prefixes, and raw payloads are never retained.
-- Storage observations always redact values. Key names, IndexedDB names, and cache names require `include_storage_keys`; stable content fingerprints require the additional `include_storage_fingerprints` selection. Cookie fingerprints cover cookies applicable to the current main-frame URL, including its path, rather than every cookie path on that origin. Other storage remains scoped to the origin. Cache fingerprints hash all decoded response bytes, including bodies above 64 KiB, subject to the [64 MiB per-message CDP limit](#request-boundary).

Previously exported captures are not retroactively corrected; recapture them to obtain these coverage markers.
 - Script metadata is included only when CDP supplies a URL on an allowed origin. Stable keys exclude transient CDP script IDs, and exact transient raw URLs are used only during script/resource reconciliation. URL-less scripts are excluded because their origin cannot be established. When CDP supplies an execution-context association, the accepted script retains its authorized frame ID for later attribution. Script metadata admission bounds retained identity and source-map strings to 8 MiB and 50,000 records. When a source-map URL cannot fit, the script identity remains and source-map coverage reports `resource_budget_exhausted`; rejected script observations are counted without retaining their IDs. Source content is omitted unless explicitly requested and is returned inline as a self-verifying artifact with its SHA-256 digest.

 ## Non-goals and threat model
 
 The browser provider deliberately does not expose generic CDP commands, `Runtime.evaluate`, WebMCP invocation, navigation, input, downloads, page closure, or browser closure. Screenshot capture is the sole pixel surface and returns an image only when requested. REA disables the domains it enabled, detaches the target session, and closes only its own WebSocket.
-Discovery and attachment errors remain primary if closing REA's socket also
-fails. The cleanup failure is reported alongside the original command failure;
-it cannot replace the operation diagnostic.
 
 This feature is not a browser sandbox or network containment mechanism. The attached page and browser continue running with their existing privileges and may make external requests independently of REA. CDP gives deep access to the selected browser profile, so use a dedicated profile, include only origins you intend to inspect, and treat other same-user processes as outside this boundary.

-# Static analysis in GitHub Actions
-
-The [minimal workflow](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/examples/github-actions/rea-analysis.yml) builds a small
-JavaScript application, analyzes its files without executing them, and uploads
-machine-readable results. It uses the existing CLI, not a separate GitHub Action
-or an MCP client. It does not promise support for every REA provider.
-
-## Run the example
-
-1. Copy the example to `.github/workflows/rea-analysis.yml` in your repository and
-   commit it to the default branch. No existing application or package manifest is
-   needed for the self-contained demonstration.
-2. Enable GitHub Actions if necessary. Select **REA static analysis example** in
-   the Actions tab and choose **Run workflow**.
-3. Download the `rea-analysis` artifact after the run. Its files are:
-
-   | File              | Meaning                                                                                            |
-   | ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-   | `analysis.json`   | Original CLI JSON, including complete Evidence on success or the error report when one is emitted. |
-   | `analysis.stderr` | Original diagnostics/progress; an empty file is normal when there are none.                        |
-   | `exit-code.txt`   | Original analysis process exit code.                                                               |
-
-The example pins Node.js 24.22.1, REA 6.7.0, and action commit revisions. It installs
-REA into the runner's temporary directory rather than changing the application's
-dependencies. This pins the tool version, not every transitive npm dependency;
-use a reviewed, committed package lock and `npm ci` if your integration requires
-that stronger dependency-reproducibility guarantee.
-
-## Prerequisites and trust
-
-The runner is GitHub-hosted Ubuntu 24.04 with Bash, npm, and `ps` from `procps`.
-Other Linux images must supply `procps`; REA's supervised process controls use it.
-This static JavaScript operation needs no Hopper, Ghidra, IDA, Java, browser,
-Docker, GPU, external API key, or user-supplied GitHub secret. The workflow only
-requests `contents: read`; artifact upload uses the runner's normal Actions
-credentials.
-
-Replace **Build a known artifact** with your reviewed build, and set
-`ARTIFACT_PATH` to its application directory (relative to the checkout) or an ASAR.
-The demonstration creates its own tiny application; it deliberately throws if
-executed. REA reads it statically. Your replacement build itself can execute code:
-review it separately and do not add untrusted pull-request builds to a privileged
-`pull_request_target` workflow. The example is manually triggered, not an
-untrusted-PR execution policy.
-
-Reports can contain paths, URLs, source-derived facts, and caller-selected data.
-Only analyze artifacts and publish reports you are authorized to share. Do not
-rely on REA inferring secrets from their names. Review artifact access and
-retention for your repository; the example retains reports for seven days.
-
-## Failure, partial results, and unsupported capabilities
-
-The analysis step captures stdout and stderr separately, records `$?`, and exits
-with that same status. There is no `continue-on-error`, `|| true`, output filter,
-or pipeline that could turn a failed analysis green. Before checkout or other
-fallible steps, the workflow creates a fresh report directory under `RUNNER_TEMP`.
-Analysis and upload both use that directory, never a checked-in `reports/rea` or
-other workspace files. The upload step uses `always()` when that directory was
-prepared, so available diagnostics survive an analysis failure. If installation
-or the build failed before analysis began, it is empty and upload warns rather
-than publishing stale results or inventing a successful result. Runner loss or
-cancellation can still prevent upload.
-
-`--json --full-output` selects a machine-readable envelope; it does **not** mean
-that analysis was complete. A successful operation can retain partial analysis,
-unknowns, and limitations. Exit zero is not a security verdict, proof of complete
-coverage, or a policy gate for those findings. Inspect the saved Evidence and
-coverage before making such a decision. See [output and exit status](cli.md#output-and-exit-status).
-
-A nonzero exit can represent invalid input, unavailable tooling, an unsupported
-host/capability, or another operation failure. Keep the original JSON error (when
-emitted), stderr, and exit code, and use their category/message to diagnose it.
-An early startup failure may leave `analysis.json` empty; do not parse that as
-successful analysis. Select a supported operation or explicitly provision its
-[documented prerequisites](installation.md); do not silently switch providers,
-execute the artifact, or ignore the failure to obtain a green job.
-
-To exercise the failure path, temporarily set `ARTIFACT_PATH` to
-`build/missing-artifact` without changing the demo build. Analysis must fail,
-`exit-code.txt` must be nonzero, and the available reports must still upload.
-To exercise unsupported input, set `ARTIFACT_PATH` to `build/rea-ci-demo/index.js`:
-this operation accepts an application directory or ASAR, not a single source file.
-The retained JSON error has category `unsupported_target`; the step exits nonzero.
-Restore the correct path before using the example normally.
-
-To exercise partial analysis, append `export const broken = ;` to the demo's
-JavaScript. REA 6.7.0 retains `data.normalized_result.statistics.parse_failures`
-and an incomplete-coverage limitation while the operation can still exit zero.
-Inspect those facts instead of treating process success as full coverage. The
-report JSON and diagnostics remain unfiltered in all three cases.

-
-This request selects up to 32 observation identities and their provenance,

-
-This changes JSONL object-collection framing. Scripts that need one complete
-report or a scalar field should use `--format json`. For a full application
-graph, first project a supported analysis view rather than selecting an
-arbitrary nested graph array.
-
-A top-level array emits its elements in source order. An object must have one

-With `--full-output`, it also retains the command envelope and its metadata.
-A data filter selects row fields/slices while this context remains available;
-excluded peer record collections and unselected Evidence `raw_result` are not
-restored. An explicitly selected `raw_result` remains selected. Retain the
-original Evidence for complete observations.
-
-`records.emitted` and `records.source` count the selected output and its source
-array; they do not assert analysis completeness. Source coverage and unknowns
-retain their original meaning. Existing row identities and indices remain
-unchanged unless your field selection excludes them. Empty object collections
-still emit metadata; an empty top-level array emits no lines. Bare top-level
-arrays have no synthetic coverage record.
-
-Command and output-validation failures emit `{"$rea":"jsonl/v1","type":"error","ok":false,"result":…}`
-and retain the original diagnostic payload. SDK validation/sentinel errors use
-the SDK's exit status rather than guessing from data fields. `$rea` is reserved
-at the top level of a data record, so control records are unambiguous; collisions
-are refused before rows are written. Nested `$rea` values are ordinary data.
-A missing final metadata record or nonzero exit can indicate an interrupted
-export; do not treat already emitted rows as a complete result.
-
-`--token-count` estimates this exact representation, including metadata, one
-line at a time. Errors remain error records even with token counting enabled.
-Token windows cannot preserve JSON Lines and are rejected. JSON encoding and
-stdout writes are incremental, including large escaped strings; this is output
-streaming over a completed result, not incremental analysis. The analysis still
-needs its normal resources. A single record must fit the runtime string limit
-for token estimation; remove `--token-count` to stream a larger record.
-
-Standalone version and MCP doctor diagnostics remain single JSON documents
-in JSON Lines mode. Incur's streaming generator events and successful sentinel
-responses retain their SDK protocol. MCP application results and Evidence

-`/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 served only where

-`/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": …}`,

-`stderr_truncated` indicates that output exceeded the retention limit. The same
-diagnostics appear inside the report when `--full-output` is selected. Log
-truncation alone does not change the diagnostic health or exit status.

-`--token-limit`, `--token-offset`) accept `--flag value` or `--flag=value`; a
-missing value fails with `MISSING_OUTPUT_VALUE` before the command runs.
-Malformed format values and token windows fail with `INVALID_OUTPUT_VALUE` in the

-`rea mcp --http` is long-running and prints no structured result. It exits
-`130` on SIGINT or `143` on SIGTERM after closing the listener, the session and
-its providers, and `1` when that cleanup fails.
-
-`rea environment-serve` is also long-running: it serves until SIGINT or
-SIGTERM, closes the listener, then prints one structured
-`{"status":"stopped", …}` document naming the URL, environment and tool count
-and exits `130` or `143` through the shared cancellation handler below.
-Refusals before binding (unreadable files, non-Evidence JSON, capture Evidence
-in a format other than HAR, a manifest or state whose parent is not the
-supplied evidence, an unbindable port) print a structured
-error and exit `1`, as does a listener that fails after binding.
-If shutdown fails, the command reports `cleanup_incomplete` with the retained
-server resources. It preserves a primary listener diagnostic, or a
-`shutdown_observation` naming the requested shutdown and its URL, environment,
-tool count and Evidence identifiers. The successful `stopped` document is
-returned only after cleanup is confirmed. The same in-process server owner
-retains failed stages for retry; the CLI exposes no separate retry command.
-`rea environment-build` is one-shot too: it prints its report and exits `0`,
-or prints the refusing stage's structured error and exits `1`, writing nothing
-when the refusal comes before the bundle is written. SIGINT cancels it with a
-`cancelled` error; a cancellation before the bundle stage writes nothing.
-`rea environment-export` is one-shot: it prints the written files and exits
-`0`, or prints a structured `invalid_request` error and exits `1` for the same
-pair refusals, a non-empty or file-occupied directory, a missing package
-tarball or a name that is not a kebab-case label or is a Windows device name,
-writing nothing in each case. A file occupying the destination is reported as
-requiring a directory; identity-change diagnostics are reserved for admitted
-paths that fail later identity checks. Host permission failures identify whether
-input reading or bundle writing was denied and retain the reported path.
-A write that fails after the first file (a permission, disk-space or
-pathname-length failure on a later path) propagates as the host's failure,
-naming its cause and, when it failed on one bundle file or the package
-tarball, that file. A failure while syncing the finished folder names only its
-cause. Either way the partial folder stays in place for inspection; remove it
-before retrying, since the next attempt refuses the non-empty directory.
-
-A `cancelled` result does not by itself determine the exit status; it depends on
-the command's signal handling. Commands routed through the shared
-`withCommandCancellation` handler in the CLI set status `130` for SIGINT or
-`143` for SIGTERM after their operation settles. Current source registrations
-use that handler for process capture and comparison (`capture-process`,
-`compare-process-captures`), JavaScript application analysis (`analyze` when it
-selects the JavaScript lane, and `analyze-javascript-application`), selected
-browser, web and Electron commands (including `analyze-web-bundle`,
-`observe-web-execution`, `capture-browser-scenario` and
-`capture-electron-scenario`), and the platform and provider command families
-for Android/ADB, Apktool/JEB/Flutter, firmware, PCAP and signal analysis,
-WASM/EVM, Go/Rust and binary diagnostics, Frida instrumentation, the Cutter
-command, objdump, Rizin and GDB, and the agent environment server
-(`environment-serve`). The handler also wraps `doctor`,
-`inspect-sqlite-database`, `recover-javascript-sources`,
-`inspect-il2cpp-metadata`, and `inspect-desktop-application`. In these paths, a returned structured
-`cancelled` result can be printed before the wrapper assigns the
-signal-derived status. This describes the current source routing; it is not a
-claim that every command or provider runtime has been independently exercised.
-
-Commands with `--evidence_output` select their delivered view, then publish the
-complete Evidence bundle atomically. Cancellation before publication leaves no
-new file. A publication that has committed can win a later cancellation; the
-`cancelled` result then keeps the written path and byte count under
-`details.diagnostics.evidence_bundle`. If staging cleanup stays incomplete
-after commit, the `cleanup_incomplete` error reports the same file as
-`details.published_path` and `details.bytes`.
-
-When the reader of piped output closes early, as `rea ... | head` does, the
-CLI stops writing, prints no error and exits `141` (`128 + 13`, the status of a
-SIGPIPE-terminated writer). The operation itself may have completed; only its
-output was declined.
-
-`inspect-artifact` also returns a structured cancelled result. Its logging
-wrapper sits outside the cancellation handler and replaces the signal-derived
-status with the analysis failure status, so it exits `1`. Setup has its own contract: cancellation exits `0`. Treat the
-structured result and process status as separate signals when scripting
-cancellation.

 ## Kimi Code
 
 Setup registers `rea` in `~/.kimi-code/mcp.json`, or
 `$KIMI_CODE_HOME/mcp.json` when set, while preserving unrelated settings and
 creating a `.rea.backup` before updating an existing file. Kimi Code infers
-stdio from the `command` entry, so setup does not add a `type` field. New
-registrations include `startupTimeoutMs = 30000` and a `toolTimeoutMs` derived
-from REA's known provider allowance plus 120 seconds of operation
-headroom. The default is 450000 ms, covering the default 330-second Ghidra
-startup; an explicit Ghidra startup timeout of 2700000 ms produces a 2820000 ms
-tool timeout. The startup allowance follows an explicitly selected Ghidra or
-Hopper provider, and otherwise uses the larger known Ghidra/Hopper deadline.
-An explicit `REA_JEB_MCP_TIMEOUT_MS` deadline, shared by catalog discovery and
-each tools/call, also contributes to that maximum. An explicit `REA_GHIDRA_DECOMPILE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` is added to the Ghidra startup allowance, because a single-decompile call can import the target and then decompile up to that limit; setup forwards it into the registration. For `ida` or `auto` selection, a valid IDA registration's parsed
-`timeoutMs` also contributes to that maximum; its default is 300000 ms.
-The derived value is a single-decompile estimate, not a deadline for an
-unbounded batch. For example, startup 330 seconds plus two 600-second
-decompiles and 120 seconds of headroom needs an estimated 1650 seconds,
-before any additional listing or output work. Select the client tool deadline
-for the intended workload, split `batch_decompile`, use `decompile_all`
-limit/resume, or reduce `trace_native_values` `max_functions`. The trace can
-decompile several functions serially; its depth and graph budgets do not
-make the single-decompile allowance a whole-traversal deadline. Existing positive caller deadlines are preserved.
-Setup forwards these explicitly selected REA deadlines and the input schema
-profile into the registration; unrelated process values are omitted. An
-explicit `REA_JADX_OPERATION_TIMEOUT_MS` is forwarded with the JADX
-registration but does not contribute to the derived tool timeout; raise
-`toolTimeoutMs` to cover a longer selected JADX deadline.
-This headroom is a practical default, not a guarantee for every analysis
-duration. Setup preserves positive timeout values already in the `rea` entry.
-You can edit `startupTimeoutMs` and `toolTimeoutMs` there; doctor keeps positive
-caller-selected values aligned and reports a non-blocking advisory when a tool
-timeout is shorter than the known provider allowance.

 ## Codex and Devin

-policy values block setup before it writes the configuration or a backup, and
-the diagnostic identifies the setting to repair. See the
-[Codex configuration reference](https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-reference/)
-for the supported policy values.
-
-When direct launcher paths prove the same executable or Node entrypoint,
-setup retains the existing caller-selected spelling. An otherwise aligned

-Dry-run applies the same policy validation and writes no files. A successful

-configuration alignment; it does not prove that a particular client or fork
-successfully exposes every REA tool.
-
-Codex treats an unset or empty `CODEX_HOME` as `~/.codex`. Its MCP server
-registration supports `startup_timeout_sec` for connection initialization and
-`tool_timeout_sec` for each tool call. New REA registrations use a 30-second
-startup timeout and a tool timeout derived from the known provider
-allowance plus 120 seconds of operation headroom. This yields 450 seconds for
-the default Ghidra allowance; an explicit Ghidra startup timeout of 2700
-seconds yields 2820 seconds. That 30-second Codex figure is client guidance.

-### Codex with Moonshot or Kimi models
-
-An older REA input containing acyclic local references was rejected by a
-Responses-compatible Kimi gateway as “infinite recursion”; expanding those
-references succeeded. A separate full-profile input failed the provider's
-schema-size limit. These are distinct reported failures, not proof that the
-canonical schema is recursive. Current REA inputs are already self-contained;
-see [schema advertisement](mcp-contracts.md#schema-advertisement).
-
-For this failure, inspect the active MCP launch command and refresh the REA
-installation that command actually runs. A configured package selector or the
-installed skill version alone does not identify a cached or still-running
-server. Follow [installation and update guidance](installation.md#diagnose-update-and-remove).
-Then merge this setting into the REA entry in `$CODEX_HOME/config.toml`
-(`~/.codex/config.toml` by default), preserving its launcher and other settings:
-
-```toml
-[mcp_servers.rea.env]
-REA_MCP_INPUT_SCHEMA_PROFILE = "compact"
-```
-
-If that table already exists, add or update the key there. Restart/reconnect
-Codex so REA reads the new environment. Compact is now REA's default, but an
-explicit `full` override remains effective until changed. It preserves the
-tool inventory and canonical server validation while reducing advertised input
-detail. The probes in [#5160](https://github.com/morluto/rea/issues/5160) covered
-individual tools through one gateway, not the entire current catalog or a
-model-driven analysis workflow.

-Legacy activation is normalized before layer merging, so an explicit enable
-can override an inherited disable. Lower files and other server entries remain
-unchanged; a legacy server named `servers` that conflicts with the native table
-requires manual repair before setup can write.
-
-When Hermes aliases refer to an anchored REA entry, refreshing or removing REA
-retains the aliases' original resolved values. Setup does not redirect another
-server's alias to REA's new launcher or policy.
-
-With no client selected, the interactive skill choice targets the shared
-`~/.agents/skills` copy. Selecting a client targets its personal destination
-when supported. Use `rea setup --skill-client shared --skill` for the shared
-copy, or `--skill-client claude_code --skill` for that client's copy. Setup
-resolves the final selection before deciding which files need installation.
-Doctor retains each selected stale or missing path and names the matching
-repair command; a current copy elsewhere does not establish freshness.
-
-Unresolved profile or directory selections remain diagnostics and never become
-write targets. Update maintenance considers only known enabled, owned REA
-registrations and owned skills. If identity or a selected skill root is
-unresolved, it reports maintenance as unavailable with the known scope and
-remaining diagnostics. An empty writable scope alone does not prove current.
-
-When configuration publication fails, setup retains the affected path, operation
-and available filesystem code in the client result. Owner/group and mode
-preservation failures identify that operation rather than implying that the
-configuration bytes or parent directory are unwritable. Setup preserves the
-original and reports its recovery backup; review local ownership and group
-membership before retrying.
-
-For an installed POSIX CLI, setup prefers an executable absolute `rea` alias
-from its selected `PATH` when filesystem identity proves that it names the
-running REA entrypoint. This keeps package-manager aliases intact instead of
-persisting an internal versioned script path. Unresolved aliases and wrappers
-that are different files do not establish that proof; setup retains its selected

-## Problem and design boundary
-
-A valid workload can exceed a conservative default. An oversized ASAR header
-may prevent analysis of the entire archive; a slow Ghidra function may exceed
-its decompile deadline. Requiring a new REA process to change either budget
-interrupts the investigation and can discard reusable provider state.
-
-REA exposes a curated set of analysis defaults through MCP so callers can
-adjust a reported limit and retry the same workload in the running runtime.
-Each setting has a typed value, resource bounds, an enforcement owner, and a
-defined application point. The design applies across archive admission,
-provider startup, operation deadlines, and worker memory requests.
-
-The setter changes in-memory defaults. It does not edit arbitrary environment
-variables, configuration files, MCP registrations, or provider installations.
-Those mechanisms have different owners and lifetimes. It also cannot change a

-| Operation A resumes and starts its worker                 | Its accepted revision 0             |
-| Operation B enters its handler                            | Revision 1                          |
-
-This gives each operation stable budget semantics even if another connection
-updates settings while it waits. `next_worker` and `next_startup` describe where
-an accepted value is applied; they do not cause workers or startups belonging
-to an older operation to adopt a newer revision.
-
-Inspection deliberately reads the store's current defaults, rather than the
-calling operation's snapshot. It reports `active_values.status: "not_observed"`:
-an inspection result cannot establish the budget or remaining time of an
-already-running worker.
-
-### Composition and embedding
-
-The MCP runtime creates one store and supplies its reader to provider factories.
-`createServer` uses a supplied store or creates one, and wires its default
-providers to that store. An embedder supplying a custom binary session or other
-provider must also inject the same reader into that provider's composition and
-pass the store to `createServer`. Merely exposing the settings tools cannot
-make a custom provider consume updates.
-
-Keep default factories, explicitly supplied providers, transport composition,
-and deferred handler dispatch covered separately where their wiring differs.
-Resolve settings at the operation boundary; copying a runtime value into a
-provider constructor would freeze it at launch. For entrypoints outside the
-MCP wrapper, an embedder needing the same snapshot guarantee must establish
-the operation scope with `AnalysisSettings.run()`.
-
-## Name a default, then a setting when operators need headroom
-
-Put the number in a named constant with a unit. Do not leave it as a magic
-number at the call site.
-
-When a workload may need more room, add a setting whose unset value is that
-constant. Pure numeric contracts live in `src/domain/analysisResourceLimits.ts`
-or their existing domain owner. `analysisSettingDefinitions.ts` binds the
-curated runtime IDs to those same bounds, defaults and application points.
-Environment parsers and recovery text stay under `src/config/`; register launch
-schemas on `environmentSchema` so startup and doctor agree. Add launch settings
-to `SELECTED_REGISTRATION_SETTINGS` when setup should forward them. Unset keeps
-today's behavior. An invalid launch value remains a configuration failure,
-never a silent fallback; its validation boundary determines whether MCP can
-start (see [invalid launch configuration](#invalid-launch-configuration)). An
-invalid runtime write is `invalid_request` and changes nothing.
-
-For example, `regex.matching_deadline_ms` and its launch seed
-`REA_REGEX_MATCHING_DEADLINE_MS` share a 5000 ms default, 1 ms floor and
-2147483647 ms maximum. Node schedules a longer `setTimeout` delay as 1 ms.
-Changing the runtime setting affects the next accepted search; changing the
-launch environment affects the next REA process.
-
-[`REA_MCP_MAX_RESPONSE_BYTES`](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/src/config/mcpResponseBudget.ts)
-is the byte-budget shape: a decimal safe integer with a 10 MiB floor
-(`MINIMUM_RESPONSE_BYTES`), the same shared schema, and no silent fallback. A
-change needs a REA restart and a matching client receive buffer. It does not
-raise REA's reserved string limit or Node's string ceiling. The setup
-allowlist does not copy this setting. A new headroom setting should, following
-the regex deadline.
-
-A per-call budget can have a runtime default without having an environment
-setting. JavaScript `max_heap_mb`
-(CLI `--max-heap-mb`) is an integer from 128 to 16384 MiB, default 1024. It
-applies on the next analysis, which starts a new worker, and does not restart
-REA. It does not raise the parent result budget, transfer ceilings, or fixed
-parser limits.
-
-Host memory and `NODE_OPTIONS` do not raise a REA admission unless that
-admission's recovery says so. The JavaScript parent result budget is one that
-does: its recovery says to set `NODE_OPTIONS` (for example
-`--max-old-space-size=<MiB>`) on the process that starts REA, then restart
-that process. `max_heap_mb` does not raise it.
-
-## Runtime settings through MCP
-
-`inspect_analysis_settings` lists the curated settings, their current and launch
-values, source, bounds, application point and relevant operation names. Filters
-by exact setting IDs, provider or operation intersect. Active worker values are explicitly `not_observed`; a configured default is
-not a measurement of active work. Inspection also separates known server limits from unknown client deadlines and receive buffers.
-
-`update_analysis_settings` accepts an atomic `changes` array. Each entry names
-an exact `setting` and either `action: "set"` with a schema-validated `value`, or
-`action: "reset"`. Reset restores the launch value. `expected_revision` is an
-optional compare-and-set guard; conflicts and duplicate keys change nothing.
-An unchanged write does not advance the revision.
-
-The revision tracks override state, not only effective numeric values. Setting
-an explicit override equal to the launch value still changes its source to
-`runtime` and advances the revision. Reset removes that override, even if the
-effective number stays the same. Validation, revision checks, and duplicate-key
-checks all happen before publishing the replacement snapshot; a rejected batch
-cannot partially apply. Clients coordinating writes can supply
-`expected_revision`; without it, valid updates apply to the current state.

-### Precedence and lifetime
-
-Where a setting supports an explicit per-call argument, precedence is:
-
-1. The caller's explicit argument.
-2. The accepted operation's runtime override.
-3. Valid launch configuration, where that setting has an environment seed.
-4. The built-in default when launch configuration is absent.
-
-An invalid launch value does not fall through to the built-in default. Preserve
-omitted caller arguments in Evidence: resolving an internal default must not
-rewrite the request as though the caller supplied it. `null` is the explicit
-unbounded value for `ghidra.decompile_timeout_seconds`; it is not a substitute
-for an unknown or omitted value elsewhere.
-
-A write does not extend active work, relaunch a provider, clear retained
-cleanup, or invalidate successful Evidence.
-
-Overrides belong to one REA runtime, survive target close/open, and disappear
-when REA exits. Connections sharing that runtime share its overrides. No files,
-ambient environment, registrations or upstream software are edited. Overrides
-are runtime-wide, not scoped to a target or an individual connection.
-
-### Failure and retry
-
-An ASAR admission error supplies `details.limit` with the exact setting,
-effective value, units, bounds, scope, application point, restart requirement
-and, when known, required bytes and value source. The agent can immediately call:
-
-```json
-{
-  "changes": [
-    { "setting": "asar.max_header_bytes", "action": "set", "value": 33554432 }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-Then retry the same full-archive request once work and cleanup have settled.
-No preliminary inspection or source subset is required. The setter does not
-retry automatically. If an explicit per-call value caused the failure, correct
-that argument; raising a runtime default cannot override it.
-
-The resource owner constructs `details.limit` from the registry plus the budget
-it actually enforced. Metadata includes `agent_editable: true`,
-`scope: "rea-runtime"`, and `rea_restart_required: false`. Optional
-`required_value`, `source`, and `parameter` fields are supplied only where known
-or applicable. Do not infer a source because a value happens to equal a default.
-Error copying, attribution, redaction, and delivery must preserve these facts.
-Human-readable remediation explains the same failure; clients should not need
-to parse that sentence to identify an editable setting.
-
-Cache policy is part of enforcement. Successful reusable analysis can survive
-a budget update. Transient Ghidra decompile failures remain uncached so a raised
-deadline can recover on the same Program. Admission checks still apply to reused
-data: lowering an ASAR limit must reject a cached oversized header. Neither
-raising a limit nor clearing a transient analysis failure authorizes skipping
-cleanup or changing the identity of the provider session.
-
-### Invalid launch configuration
-
-Launch validation has two relevant boundaries. Settings validated by global
-configuration parsing can prevent REA from starting; an MCP setter cannot
-repair a server that is not running. Correct the launch environment or
-registration, use `rea doctor` for its configuration checks, and start REA again.
-
-Provider-local validation can leave MCP available. For example, an invalid
-`REA_JADX_OPERATION_TIMEOUT_MS` is inspectable with `source: "invalid"`, a
-`configuration_error`, and omitted `value` and `launch_value`. A valid runtime
-override repairs the effective JADX timeout without editing that launch seed.
-Inspection then reports the runtime value while retaining the launch error.
-Reset exposes the invalid launch state again; it does not repair or replace it
-with the built-in default. Provider availability and execution must resolve the
-same effective setting so readiness changes along with repair and reset.
-
-## Keep a fixed ceiling honest
-
-Inspection's separate
-[constraints](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/src/server/analysisSettingsConstraints.ts)
-describe operator-owned, external, and fixed controls. REA can report its
-configured response budget and parent heap limit; client deadlines and receive
-buffers remain explicitly unknown. These are not entries accepted by the
-runtime setter. Raising a worker heap request cannot raise the parent heap,
-and raising a provider deadline cannot make the client wait longer.
-
-If the ceiling must stay fixed, say so in the failure. Name the limit and the
-effective value, say this release has no runtime override, and name what does
-not raise it. Do not invent a setting.
-
-JSON values stop at `MAX_JSON_DEPTH` (1000) in
-[`jsonValue.ts`](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/src/domain/jsonValue.ts):
-"JSON value exceeds maximum nesting depth of 1000. This release has no runtime
-override."
-
-## Recovery text
-
-The string the caller sees includes:
-
-- the limit or setting name
-- the effective value and unit
-- the source when known (`default`, `setting`, `runtime`, or `request`)
-- the default, the maximum, and the floor when the setting has one
-- the next action, including where to set it ("in the environment that starts REA")
-- whether a restart is required
-- what the change does not raise
-
-Distinguish an invalid configuration from a valid budget exhausted by work.
-Preserve the configuration failure and its setting identity; apply the
-[launch validation boundary](#invalid-launch-configuration) when describing
-whether live repair is possible.
-
-## What agents do
-
-Use `details.limit` for a direct runtime update when it names an editable
-setting. Follow `remediation.action` for per-call, fixed and external controls.
-Inspect settings only when bounds or application details are missing. Restart only when it says the value is
-read at startup. A sentence that a control does not raise the limit is not a
-request to change it.
-
-- Dropped MCP connection: retry the call once only when it is safe to repeat
-  or known not to have started. If it may already have changed the target, or
-  it fails again, tell the user and ask them to restart the MCP client. Do not
-  start with `rea doctor`
-  ([#6353](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/6353)).
-- REA could not start its connection: retry once. If it fails again, tell the
-  user and ask them to restart the MCP client, then run `rea doctor`. Do not
-  retry a startup that returns the same unchanged result: tell the user REA
-  could not start, ask them to restart the MCP client, then run `rea doctor`.
-- Unexpected process-command failure: do not repeat the command. Tell the user
-  to check the input files, then run `rea doctor`.
-- `cleanup_incomplete`: the operation is not retryable. Retry that exact
-  cleanup owner, named in `details.resources`, and wait until it confirms
-  release before admitting new work on those resources
-  ([#6357](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/6357)).
-- `resource_constraint` for capacity, when `retryable` is true: wait for the
-  active admission to finish, then retry within the reported limits. Do not
-  restart REA to free the slot.
-- `configuration_invalid`: when MCP remains available and the failure belongs
-  to a curated provider-local setting, inspect and set a valid runtime override.
-  Otherwise correct the named setting in the environment that starts REA, then
-  start REA again. Run `rea doctor` for the
-  `runtime-configuration:` check. Re-run `rea setup` for that client when the
-  setting is on the registration allowlist, then reconnect so the new process
-  sees it.
-- `invalid_request`: correct the reported fields from the current schema or
-  CLI help. Do not repeat the unchanged call.
-
-A restart is required to adopt a changed launch environment or registration.
-The curated runtime settings above require no REA restart. It is not the first step for a transient
-MCP drop, a capacity wait, or retained cleanup.
-
-## Adding a runtime setting
-
-1. Identify the enforcing owner and the real resource constraint. Decide whether
-   callers need a per-call argument, a runtime default, a launch-only control,
-   or a fixed limit. A registry entry must not advertise authority REA lacks.
-2. Define the value type and named numeric bounds with the domain owner. Add the
-   ID and metadata to `analysisSettings.ts` and `analysisSettingDefinitions.ts`.
-   Reuse those bounds in runtime validation, launch parsing, and error metadata.
-   Choose the application point and provider/operation associations from actual
-   consumers; a shared control need not apply to every provider.
-3. If there is a launch seed, add its parser and appropriate configuration/doctor
-   validation. Decide whether an invalid value blocks the runtime or only the
-   provider. Add it to setup's `SELECTED_REGISTRATION_SETTINGS` when it should
-   be forwarded; runtime editability does not automatically propagate it.
-4. Thread the shared reader through every applicable composition path. Resolve
-   the effective value within the accepted operation, honor explicit arguments,
-   and preserve their omission in Evidence. Keep availability checks consistent
-   with execution. A worker heap request must not be described as a measured
-   process memory limit.
-5. Enforce the value at its resource boundary and construct structured limit
-   facts there. Preserve those facts through shared error projection and copies.
-   Check cache reuse, lowered admission, transient failures, and retained cleanup
-   against the same ownership rules.
-6. Update the public contracts and affected guides, then regenerate catalogs
-   and packaged skill metadata using the repository commands. Keep externally
-   owned and fixed controls in the separate inspection constraints, not in the
-   editable registry. Validate both store semantics and a public recovery path.
-
-## Tests and verification
-
-Cover the unset default, accepted overrides, rejected floor/maximum values,
-and invalid syntax through the owning parser and configuration boundary.
-[`regexMatchingDeadline.test.ts`](https://github.com/morluto/rea/blob/main/src/config/regexMatchingDeadline.test.ts)
-is one example. Assert error codes, setting IDs, values, units, provenance,
-application points, and resulting behavior. Check that adapters deliver the
-canonical recovery guidance, with independent assertions for its underlying
-facts. Avoid freezing prose or deriving all expected values from the same
-registry used by the implementation; either can hide the wrong failure.
-See [test design](../testing.md#test-design-and-pruning) for the assertion policy.
-
-Runtime checks cover atomic validation, stale writes, reset, runtime isolation,
-accepted-operation snapshots, and explicit argument precedence. Public MCP
-acceptance must reject an oversized ASAR, raise admission, and successfully
-retry the same complete archive on the same connection. Lowering admission must
-also refuse previously cached headers. The real Ghidra timeout verifier checks
-recovery after a live update without replacing its session. Also cover invalid
-provider-local launch configuration, repair/reset availability, default and
-custom composition paths, and preservation of structured limits through error
-copies. Gates used to overlap work and updates need bounded acknowledgements
-and release/join in `finally`.
-
-The [verification report](../verification/runtime-analysis-settings.md) separates
-public MCP checks, simulated provider coverage, real Ghidra execution, and
-measured task costs. It does not establish real-provider behavior for every
-editable setting or active worker telemetry.

-Default `detail: "summary"` retains complete source Evidence in the session and

-
-Collections are `files`, `omissions`, `candidates`, `components` and `next_probes`.
-Files and omissions accept exact `paths` and batched `file_ids` / `omission_ids`.
-Files also accept `has_issues: true` to select probe diagnostics directly, or
-`false` to select rows without reported issues. This filter uses the retained
-issue facts; it does not re-read targets or infer that uninspected files are healthy.
-When both are supplied, all filters apply; an empty selection returns no rows.
-Omission records retain the observed path, kind and stable `omission_id`; their
-payloads are not read, and other special-entry metadata remains unavailable.
-`candidates` accepts exact `families`.
-Omitted selectors match all retained rows; an empty selector matches none.
-Every collection supports `fields`, `offset` and `limit`; its stable row ID is
-always included. Selection changes delivery, not source inspection. Pages keep
-source coverage and parent Evidence links. Page exhaustion does not establish
-absence in a partial source. Complete Evidence remains accessible through
-`get_evidence` and Evidence bundle export.
-
-The summary's `probe_issues` counts files with reported issues and their retained
-issue entries. It previews at most two such files, including stable `file_id`,
-read status and the first issue. Path/reason previews use at most 256 UTF-16 units
-each without splitting surrogate pairs; `text_truncated` marks shortened text,
-and `preview_truncated` marks additional files. These are display prefixes;
-full caller paths and all reasons remain in Evidence. Counts describe retained
-observations, while source coverage still identifies partial inspection.
-
-Use `inspect_analysis_view` with `collection: "files", has_issues: true` and
-`fields: ["path", "read_status", "issues"]` for exact reasons, with the usual
-paging and parent links. It intersects with exact paths and batched file IDs.
-
-An ASAR inventory probe first selects its exact path with `open_binary`; then
-call `inspect_artifact` on that active target. Directory inspection itself does
-not select or replace the session target. The JavaScript application workflow
-accepts its own selected path directly.

-## CLI
-
-The one-shot CLI returns complete Evidence by default. For compact output,
-explicitly retain it in a bundle:
-
-```bash
-rea inspect-desktop-application /artifacts/MyApplication \
-  --detail summary --evidence_output /reports/application.evidence.json --json
-```
-
-This returns `summary` Evidence and an `evidence_bundle` publication receipt.
-Existing output files are never overwritten. Summary delivery requires
-`--evidence_output`, checked before analysis. `inspect-evidence-bundle` selects
-saved records; an exact saved record can also feed `inspect-analysis-view`.
-`--detail complete` returns source Evidence inline and can optionally write the
-same bundle. Export writes only the caller-selected output file.

-metadata integers remain decimal strings. Read ranges have offsets, byte counts
-and SHA-256 digests; typed facts expose CLI RVAs, metadata/pack versions and
-assembly tokens. Directory and symlink identities unavailable from traversal
-remain null.
-
-The directory's `snapshot_sha256` commits to retained paths, omission kinds,
-available metadata and range digests, composed through the admitted root,
-entry and omission identities. Caller ceilings, coverage counters, diagnostic
-wording and interpretation facts remain in Evidence, outside source identity.
-The same observations under different generous limits share a snapshot digest;
-Evidence IDs still preserve request parameters and reported coverage. Different
-retained entries or read ranges change the source snapshot.
-Omission records share the entry and representation budgets and can be fetched
-independently through their view.
-**It is not a digest of all file contents.** These are sequential stable entry
-observations, not an atomic directory snapshot. Unread bytes remain unknown.
-
-## Resource bounds and reuse
-
-Defaults are 20,000 examined entries and 8 MiB of total probe reads. Callers may
-select up to 100,000 entries and 64 MiB. A separate 32 MiB conservative
-representation budget bounds retained paths and facts before growth. Limits
-and failed probes produce partial coverage. Traversal and reads are serial.
-Each reader admits one inspection at a time; overlapping requests receive a
-retryable capacity refusal without cancelling the admitted caller.
-
-Unity reference decoding stops after a witness in each `Data/Managed` directory;
-other assemblies' references remain unexamined, while their headers are still
-checked. AssemblyRef facts decode names and tokens only; they do not decode or
-hash unrelated key/culture/hash payloads or establish runtime binding. Pack contents, encrypted data, metadata/address correspondence and
-section-embedded PCKs without a trailer are separate capabilities.
-
-Filesystem results are not cached across calls. Retained views reuse validated
-immutable metadata without rescanning files or retaining another inventory.
