Retain validated DOS relocation records in their domain owner and consume
those facts in Ghidra load-image preparation. Preserve ordered duplicate
aliases, overlapping writes, and original/final byte evidence.
Share FAT header facts across generic, native, and Hopper readers without
merging their distinct admission policies. Replace managed method bodies'
two identical mapping lookups with one owned offset-and-extent result.
Validation: 660 focused tests passed across 19 suites; typecheck, lint, and
test discovery passed. Hopper/Ghidra checks used fixtures and simulated
provider observations; no real external provider execution was performed.
Use one lossless Mach-O name projection for symbols and dependency paths, retaining undecodable bytes and partial binding facts. Keep referenced NIB string failures unknown and preserve their source nodes through the shared lazy projection. Valid Unicode, readable sibling metadata and weak-bind scope remain usable.
Exercise the producer and CLI/MCP consumers, and align date-overlap and object-capacity fixtures with their owning archive contracts without relaxing admission or omission assertions.
Join provider class observations only when selected-image identity and exact import bindings establish equivalence. Preserve distinct observations and unsupported coverage.

* fix(native): select one slice when universal Mach-O slices share a CPU type
On macOS 27 most system binaries are universal files whose slices share
CPU_TYPE_ARM64: arm64e + arm64e.x1 (Calculator, TextEdit), x86_64 + arm64e +
arm64e.x1 (/bin/ls), or arm64 + arm64e.x1 (ShortcutDroplet). Target admission
names slices by CPU family, so these targets have availableArchitectures
["arm64"] while the file holds two arm64 slices.
inspect_macho read that family count as a slice count and ran otool, nm,
dyld_info, dwarfdump and vtool without -arch. ShortcutDroplet failed with
"Malformed otool load-command output" (40 load commands against ncmds 20).
Calculator reported both slices' imports (4138 instead of 2069), nm's
"(for architecture ...)" header lines as exports, and no selected slice.
selectArchitecture now also filters when lipo lists more than one slice. Its
preference is unchanged: the family name, then arm64e, then the first
arm64e.<variant>.
inspect_native_dispatch_metadata matched FAT slices by CPU type only and
refused /bin/ls and TextEdit as "Ambiguous FAT architecture slice".
selectMachoSlice now ranks slices of the requested CPU type by base subtype in
the same order: arm64 (0, then 1) or x86_64 (3), then arm64e (2), then other
variants such as arm64e.x1 in FAT table order. It reports ambiguity only when
the top-ranked slices share a subtype.

* fix: bind identity and coverage to the producing rule
Logical paths, container families, examined bytes, path-segment conventions, destination collisions, file-id leases, Mach-O CPU selection, and firmware cleanup now follow the observation that owns each rule.
* fix: fail unmatched Mach-O slices and keep firmware roots independent
A fat target whose architecture lipo did not list now stops before slice tools run. Chained fixups still count unread LC_DYLD_INFO rebase bytes, and a firmware cleanup failure no longer blocks the next workspace.
* test: cover path identity and runtime families at the projection boundary
NFC joins and segment conventions are now asserted by the path resolver, the Apple projection, and a real APK inventory instead of helper unit tests.
* test: expect unread dyld rebase bytes in the Apple dispatch fixture
The legacy LC_DYLD_INFO fixture keeps a rebase range this reader does not decode, so the public CLI and MCP check now requires that partial coverage beside the bind opcodes.

Deliver complete Evidence directly through MCP with required nullable analysis profiles and immutable per-server delivery settings. Bind selected environments at construction and require typed cleanup outcomes with retained retry ownership.
Remove test-only routing, duplicate session and snapshot metadata, producer-field repairs, and ambiguous provider arguments. Separate artifact byte identity from occurrence classification and retain typed source-map and partial native facts across CLI, MCP, and verifier consumers.
BREAKING CHANGE: obsolete Evidence envelopes, session aliases, incomplete snapshots, and missing normalized producer facts are no longer accepted.
