* test: focus assertions on behavioral evidence
Prune redundant and wording-coupled checks while retaining diagnostic, parser, recovery, and cleanup coverage.
* refactor: remove test-only wrappers and duplicate checks
Exercise production operations through test fixtures, remove unused adapters, and keep managed-member uncertainty guidance under its existing owner.
* test: focus process validation on diagnostic facts
* refactor: remove test-only runtime helpers
Move semantic evidence fixture setup out of runtime and remove unused Windows settle recovery helpers while checking configured defaults independently.
* test: focus artifact diagnostics on format facts
* test: verify retained cleanup guidance delivery
Read bounded plist format probes and Linux resource-limit reports through positive short reads before classifying their contents. Preserve explicit EOF, report capacity, physical failures and descriptor cleanup ownership.
Validated 66 focused tests and check:fast; nine new fault-injected cases fail against the previous implementation. Linux procfs was not verified on a real Linux host.
Reuse the positional range owner for target metadata, Hopper Mach-O selection and Kuna spans. Preserve physical failures, completed span evidence and cleanup ownership across cancellation and short reads.
Validated 147 focused file and lifecycle tests; ten new cases reproduced failures against the prior implementation.
Continue reading Mach-O and Electron ranges after positive short descriptor reads, while preserving explicit EOF, cancellation, file identity and cleanup semantics. Advance fuse scanning and hashing by the bytes actually read.
Validated focused filesystem, Mach-O, dyld, Electron and MCP workflows: 117 tests passed, two Windows-only tests skipped; check:fast passed.
