* refactor: prune internal seams and preserve configuration ownership
* fix(setup): keep YAML aliases and inherited registration settings on refresh
- Reuse an unchanged YAML collection only while every alias in it still
resolves after the edit; otherwise rebuild it so the alias becomes its
value. A sibling anchor replaced or moved in the same refresh no longer
leaves an unresolved alias in Hermes or Goose output.
- Keep a connection selector whose existing value already chooses stdio
(for example an inherited Hermes transport: stdio) instead of superseding
it; remote selectors are still replaced. Explicit stdio selectors are
therefore no longer rewritten (Kimi expectation updated).
- When the whole Hermes registration is inherited through a merge,
override it with that merge and write only the changed fields.
* fix(setup): edit registration fields whose YAML key is an alias
A key written as an alias to a string scalar (for example *field with
field: &field env) was treated as a source-only key, so any change to
its value was refused in Hermes and Goose. Resolve such keys to their
string, keep the aliased spelling while its anchor survives the edit,
and write the plain key when the same edit rebuilds the anchor.
* test(process): bound cleanup-boundary waits and always release gates
Both cancellation tests awaited a bare started promise and released
their gates only on success, so a missed boundary waited for the outer
deadline and could leave cleanup parked. Use awaitAcknowledgement and
release and join the cleanup in finally.
* fix(setup): repair only aliases an edit leaves unresolved
Replace the pre-edit alias survival guess, which expanded aliases to
sibling anchors that survive unchanged, with an exact repair: record
what each alias in the replaced value resolves to, write the edit, then
replace only aliases left without a preceding anchor by that value.
- Keep an aliased key's source position, so its anchor stays ahead of
later aliases.
- Treat an aliased key as its string only when no other key in the map
resolves to the same string; an ambiguous one stays guarded.
- Override an inherited Hermes registration only when the requested
entry keeps every inherited field, so an explicit replacement can drop
remote selectors.
* fix(setup): repair aliases whose binding an edit changes, keeping comments
An alias whose own anchor was removed could resolve to an earlier anchor
with the same name and silently change value. Record the node each alias
resolved to and repair any alias that no longer resolves to that node.
Carry the alias's comments and spacing onto the repaired value.
* test(setup): split the Hermes anchor and merge refresh cases
* fix(setup): refuse removing an overridden key its merge would restore
The merge-retention check skipped keys the mapping also overrides, so
dropping such a key (for example a remote url during an explicit stdio
replacement) let the retained merge restore it. Check removal before
skipping overridden keys, so the edit is refused with the existing
message instead of producing a registration that cannot be applied.
Retain source URLs, empty connections, and ordered frame streams. Compare same-URL streams without relying on transient request IDs, and compare selected shapes and byte counts only through common known coverage. Malformed binary frames retain known metadata with an unknown byte count.
BREAKING CHANGE: inspect_web_page network.websocket_events is replaced by network.websocket_connections, whose records contain request_id, url, and events. Frame payload_bytes is nullable when decoding cannot establish its size. No legacy alias is retained.
Validation: 78 domain/browser/MCP focused tests, check:fast, docs:check, and real Chrome 154 CDP capture passed. Real capture retained six connections and twelve frames with source URLs and selected shapes. Full browser verifier was interrupted during an unrelated slow scenario stage; its assertions were exercised by the bounded capture proof.
Retain primitive and nested array types with typed paths, and compare only mutually observed body shapes while preserving selected coverage uncertainty. Return full untrusted WebMCP input declarations with canonical digests, without resolving references or invoking tools.
BREAKING CHANGE: JSON shape paths now contain typed property and array-element segments. WebMCP input_schema_shape is replaced by input_schema and input_schema_sha256, retaining declared examples and defaults.
