Remove the undocumented name alias from list_names fallback and validate the canonical value rows with the existing strict policy. Keep record defaults in the public input contract and require explicit decoder budgets. Preserve provenance, partial coverage, source coordinates and typed failures in active application and MCP tests.
Normalize empty addresses once at the symbol-inventory interpretation
boundary. Keep Swift and Objective-C records with null locations, preserve
the original empty value in evidence.reported_address, and retain partial
coverage instead of failing the entire metadata result. Nonempty provider
address syntax remains unchanged.
Validation: domain and production-registration MCP regressions failed before
the fix. Ten focused files passed 181 tests with 2 skipped, including SDK
converted JSON Schema/catalog validation and graph consumers. npm run check
and docs:check passed (5 documentation tests). Fixture provider only; no
native-provider malformed-symbol or Windows runtime reproduction claimed.
BREAKING CHANGE: Swift symbol address can now be null when the provider has
no location. Clients consuming swift_symbols must handle an unknown address.
The original provider value is retained in optional evidence.reported_address.
Refs #4542
Use one upstream Swift mangling prefix owner for demangler status and metadata projection/counts. Keep visible legacy class names and nominal-category decoding semantics distinct.
Validation: metadata prefix, negative symbol and partial decode regressions pass; existing Mach-O controls pass.
Based on #3157.

BREAKING CHANGE: Objective-C attribute tokens now contain only name and value. Properties report nullable atomicity and readonly facts; class flags, ivar counts, and method requirement flags are nullable when unobserved.
