* fix(cli): export source Evidence for native value traces
* fix(cli): preserve trace completeness in summaries
* fix(cli): emit compact JSON validation errors for demangle-swift
Piped and redirected --json argument diagnostics went through Incur's
always-indented Formatter, bypassing REA's destination-aware writer.
Buffer non-TTY SDK JSON like JSONL and rewrite through writeJsonOutput.
* fix(cli): keep token-count for piped SDK JSON documents
Compact JSON rewrite for non-TTY SDK output returned early before
token controls, so --llms/--schema --format json --token-count printed
the document instead of its count.
* fix(cli): do not token-count non-document JSON captures
Completion hooks and other non-JSON --json pipe output must stay verbatim;
token-count on non-JSON SDK captures applies only with sdkDocumentControls.
* test(cli): assert demangle JSON validation by code, not wording
* fix(cli): seal in-process Evidence before publishing
The CLI rebuilt a plain bundle from records it had already authenticated,
so writeEvidenceBundle cloned and authenticated the complete analyzed
graph again at the final checkpoint. On a default heap that second copy
could exceed available memory after minutes of analysis and discard the
whole run.
Seal the in-process bundle once so publication can stream the canonical
form without the redundant authentication copies. The regression test
fails on the previous behavior with resource_constraint under a one-byte
heap allowance.
Fixes#8411
* fix(cli): preserve the heap check for mutable Evidence
Only seal the publication bundle when every record is already immutable.
Mutable producer records keep the writer's existing heap check instead of
being copied before that check. The regression now covers the safe
fallback and lets the shared temporary-directory fixture own cleanup.
* test(cli): keep a distinct mutable source in the publication regression
Seal the main record and give the mutable source its own evidence ID so
the map cannot replace it before the bundle guard runs.
* fix(debugger): let REA exit when a debugger could not be stopped
`rea debug-with-gdb` and `rea debug-with-rizin` printed cleanup_incomplete
and set exit status 1, but the retained child and its pipes kept the event
loop alive, so the process never exited. A stdio MCP server whose client
disconnected hung the same way.
closeOwnedDebuggerSessions is the owner both managers finish through. It now
unreferences retained sessions, as supervised providers already do after
incomplete cleanup, restores the references on retry, and names the retained
process IDs. The one-shot commands report those IDs, since no later command
can retry. Debugger ownership, signals and detach behavior are unchanged.
GDB cleanup requests also no longer hold the host until their 120 s command
deadline, because cleanup already bounds its own wait.

* fix(debugger): name retained debuggers when an MCP server shuts down
An MCP server that exits with a retained debugger logged only "REA provider
cleanup failed" and "could not close cleanly", so nothing named the process
left for the caller to check. The PIDs were on OwnedDebuggerCleanupError, but
each shutdown reporter read only the outer aggregate's message, and the debug
failure_cause description dropped the field too.
The failure type now lives in its own dependency-free module with one reader
that walks composed failures. The shutdown report, the server's onclose log,
the debug description and the one-shot CLI all use it, and the shutdown report
writes the same remediation the CLI returns.
The fake debuggers now model each request exactly, with real reply shapes, and
a request they do not model fails the test.

* test(debugger): compare retained-debugger guidance with its formatter
The new checks froze the wording "Check process ... and its target".
docs/testing.md asks guidance checks to compare with the owning formatter,
alongside independent checks of the facts. They now do, and each still proves
the process ID is named, because a formatter comparison alone would pass if the
formatter dropped it.

* feat(evidence): discover missing Evidence links without transferring records
An agent could only learn that a retained record's source was absent by reading
complete records or by having a downstream analysis refuse. The summary said
nothing about links, and complete-record retention was easy to mistake for
source closure.
- Add detail: links to get_evidence_bundle and CLI inspect-evidence-bundle:
paged link rows with retained or missing status and no record payloads, for
selected records against the whole session or file.
- Add retained-closure traversal, the walk composed workflows require, reporting
complete or incomplete. Direct reads make no closure claim.
- Count direct and missing direct links in the summary.

* fix(evidence): count a repeated Evidence link once in every delivery
The Evidence schema does not deduplicate evidence_links, so the summary counted
a repeated link twice while link rows and counts reported it once. Both now read
one helper for a record's distinct direct links.

* test(evidence): validate link delivery against the advertised schemas
The test never called tools/list, so neither the shared validator nor the MCP

rejected the links result could have passed. Fetch the advertised definition and
validate every request and reply against it.

* fix(cli): keep captured source Evidence when one-shot delivery never commits
A completed observation that was cancelled at final close, failed cleanup, or
never reached bundle commit returned its evidence links but dropped the source
records the invocation had already captured. The caller could neither read those
records nor tell whether they were missing, captured or written.
Report the closure at publishCliAnalysisEvidence, the shared boundary every
--evidence_output command uses. details.source_closure carries authentic captured
records within 64 KiB and explicit omissions: not_captured for a link this
invocation holds no record for, and not_inlined for a captured record outside this
response. A committed bundle keeps its receipt instead, nothing is written after
cancellation, and successful delivery is unchanged.
Fixes#8589

* fix(cli): keep the typed failure when collecting source closure cannot finish
A captured source with a data-sized evidence_links array made
pending.push(...links) exceed V8's call-argument limit. On final-close
cancellation or a refused publication that RangeError replaced the original typed
failure, which is the one outcome this delivery step exists to preserve.
Walk the closure through a Set, which is a deduplicating breadth-first queue, so
no link becomes a call argument and each link costs one lookup however often it
repeats. undeliveredSourceClosure now owns authentication and never throws: if
examining the closure fails, it reports collection_failure with the bounded error
type and an unknown closure state, and the original failure is still returned.
Fault the final-close tests on the scope the command gave to matching, after
matching completed, and assert that close was reached, so a moved close fails
instead of passing on an earlier one.

* fix(cli): describe one-shot timeouts for an invocation whose session has ended
A one-shot CLI analysis that reached a provider deadline told its caller
that the Ghidra session remained usable and reported a runtime-editable
limit applying to the next operation, although the command had already
released its provider session and runtime.
The shared error projection now takes an explicit caller lifetime.
Providers keep guidance that holds only for a continuing caller (session
reuse, same-session runtime updates) apart from the request outcome, and
the presentation adds it only for a continuing caller. One-shot owners
(runDirectAnalysis, runProviderAnalysis, finishAnalysisCommand and the
JavaScript application command) project for the invocation: details.limit
reports scope rea-invocation, applies_at next_invocation and the launch
environment seed, and the remediation leads with that setting for a new
invocation. MCP output keeps its runtime-update and same-session guidance.
Covers the Ghidra decompile timeout, decompiler failure, regex stack
exhaustion and startup timeout, the shared regex deadline, the Kuna
decompile timeout and the Hopper startup timeout.

* fix(cli): project composed child failures for the caller lifetime
Cleanup composition embedded its primary and cleanup failures as
continuing-caller projections, and baked the primary's message and the
cleanup's remediation into the composed error. A one-shot command whose
Ghidra startup timed out while shutdown also failed therefore still
reported a rea-runtime limit and update_analysis_settings in
details.diagnostics.primary_error.
childFailureDiagnostics now snapshots each embedded child at composition
for both lifetimes when its projection depends on the caller, so cleanup
history keeps its composition-time state and the final projection selects
the caller's form. composedCallerGuidance re-attributes message and
remediation with their continuing-only parts kept separate. Error copies
and redaction keep the invocation diagnostics. The Hopper startup timeout
now carries its continuing guidance on the error like the other producers.
Invocation limits keep agent_editable and rea_restart_required, with
values that hold for a new invocation, so only scope and applies_at
change and environment is added.
In existing-project mode a decompile timeout or a cancelled session now
says the next session copies and opens REA_GHIDRA_PROJECT_PATH again
rather than repeating import and analysis.
Tests compare delivered guidance with the owning formatters and constants
instead of freezing prose.

* feat(evidence): read selected complete records without the whole bundle
get_evidence_bundle could discover a record by exact ID, but reading it

- Add detail: records, a page (offset, limit; default 0, 8) of the

* feat(artifacts): inventory and extract ESP32 firmware images
ESP32-family app and bootloader images (magic 0xE9) had no reader, so
open_binary refused OTA downloads, app partitions and bootloaders.
Add the esp-image container format behind inspect_artifact and
extract_artifact. A pure decoder reads each byte once and keeps only
fixed-size fields. Derived facts cover the chip, from a table cited to
ESP-IDF v6.1; segment classification as ESP-IDF's should_map and
should_load; checksum and appended SHA-256 results; app and bootloader
descriptors; Secure Boot v2 signature blocks, observed and unverified;
and undescribed trailing byte ranges. Truncation and undescribed bytes
make coverage unknown. ESP8266 images are refused with a specific
reason, and ciphertext stays unrecognized.
Add the format to every target, Evidence, snapshot, live-summary and
artifact vocabulary, document it, and add an optional verify:esp-images
lane that compares esptool-built images with esptool image-info and
espsecure signature-info-v2.
Refs #3615
* test(artifacts): run the ESP image lane on esptool v5.6.0
The lane compared descriptor fields only when esptool image-info printed
one, so a descriptor that REA reports and esptool does not print passed
without comparison. Compare the descriptor kind in both directions.
Record that the lane passed for all 13 images with esptool and espsecure
v5.6.0, the version the layout facts cite, as well as with 4.12.0.
* refactor(artifacts): define ESP image layout sizes once
The decoder and the derived facts each defined the segment-header,
appended-digest and flash-sector sizes, the erased-byte scan and the
offset formatter. Define them once with the other fixed-layout structures
and import them in both places. The signature slot count is the one
constant that drives the slot scan.
Correct the observedEnd comment: it is the end of the last chunk read.
* fix(artifacts): report ESP-IDF's segment length limit by chip
ESP-IDF's verify_segment_header rejects a segment of 16 MiB or more
unless the chip maps flash through 32-bit cache addresses
(SOC_SPI_MEM_SUPPORT_CACHE_32BIT_ADDR_MAP: ESP32-S3, P4, C5, C61, H4 and
S31 in v6.1). Record that capability in the chip table and add a
limitation for such segments; unknown chips get none.
`loaded` repeats should_load. It does not mean the bootloader accepts the
segment: verify_load_addresses still rejects one outside the chip's RAM,
which REA does not model. Say so in the docs, the skill reference and the
inventory limitation.
* test(artifacts): check ESP lane tools first and verify extraction
The lane started work before checking its tools, so a missing RISC-V
target, ld.lld, esptool or espsecure surfaced as a raw spawn or command
error. Check each one before building and name the variable to set. Warn
when esptool is not v5.6.0, the release the layout facts cite.
Assert each segment's class for the ESP32-C3 app, its variants and the
bootloader, as the Xtensa image already did. Extract the app and the
signed image through the CLI and compare every file with the bytes at
esptool's segment offsets or in the appended signature sector; the
source's SHA-256 must be unchanged and equal the reported root_sha256.
* docs(artifacts): state what the ESP image lane does not establish
The Verification section listed the lane's checks but not its gaps: only
ESP32-C3 and ESP32 images come from a real producer, no real project
build, OTA download or flash dump is inspected, no signature is verified,
and the lane does not run in CI.
Record the timing of the final lane run on esptool v5.6.0.
* fix(artifacts): compare ESP segment declarations
Segment entries hash only their data, so compare_artifacts reported a
segment that moved to another load address with the same bytes as
unchanged; only the image itself changed. Compare each segment's
load_addr and data_len as its declaration, as Node SEA and PyInstaller
members are compared, and count a changed declaration as a metadata
change, also when content is unavailable.
Header offsets are layout and the classification is derived, so neither
is compared.
* test(artifacts): run ESP lane commands as owned process trees
The lane ran its tools through execFile. A timeout killed only the direct
child, so a linker or assembler that Clang or GCC had started could keep
running while the lane removed its workspace. Run every command through
createVerifierCommands, check the tools inside withVerifierCleanup, and
remove the workspace only after commands.close() has stopped every tree;
a failed close keeps the workspace.
Only a nonzero exit now counts as a refusal or an expected esptool
failure; timeouts and spawn failures propagate. Supervising each command
roughly doubles the lane's run time.
* test(artifacts): cancel ESP decoding after its first decoded chunk
The cancellation test requested cancel or close on setImmediate, which
can land while the file is still being opened and checked, so it never
showed that decoding had started. It also passed against a reader that
ignored both requests while decoding. Acknowledge the decoder's first
chunk, then cancel or close, join the operation, and assert that no
later chunk reaches the decoder and that the reader ends closed.
* docs(artifacts): record which ESP metadata comparison ignores
Segments are compared by their declaration. The image's and the
signature blocks' format_metadata are not: every field comes from their
own bytes, which content comparison already covers, and a block's
image_digest_matches follows the image's content.
* feat(artifacts): inventory and extract ESP flash layouts
A whole-flash dump of an ESP32-family chip was read as its bootloader
image, with the partition table, apps and data left as undescribed bytes,
or refused when it began with erased flash. Read it as an esp-flash-image
container instead.
The partition table is decoded as esp_partition_table_verify accepts it
and is found at the caller's partition_table_offset, at the default
0x8000, or by scanning 0x1000-aligned sectors for a table whose MD5
verifies, which the inventory reports as derived. The bootloader is
located at its chip's ROM bootloader offset. Each partition is an entry
with its declaration in flat format_metadata; the bootloader and app
partitions carry ESP image facts from the existing streaming decoder; the
otadata records are reported with a selection derived without rollback or
anti-rollback, and the running partition stays unknown. One unreadable
partition does not hide the others, and extraction writes every partition,
nvs_keys included, as ordinary data.
Flash layouts are detected before single ESP images. The scan runs only
when an ESP image sits at a ROM bootloader offset, and is refused when a
bootloader at another chip's offset shows that the dump does not start at
flash address 0. open_binary gains flash_offset and partition_table_offset,
which require format esp-flash-image and are part of the snapshot target
identity; the CLI takes them with --target-format esp-flash-image.
Comparison treats a partition's label, type, subtype, range and flags as
its declaration.
* test(artifacts): verify ESP flash layouts with gen_esp32part, merge-bin and otatool
Add the optional verify:esp-flash lane. It builds default and relocated
partition tables with ESP-IDF's gen_esp32part.py, assembles dumps with
esptool merge-bin, including one written from flash 0x1000, and writes
OTA records with otatool through flash_file_tool.py, which replaces
parttool's esptool calls with reads and writes of the dump file.
It compares REA's bootloader and app facts with esptool image-info, every
partition with gen_esp32part.py's decoding of the extracted table, and the
OTA records and derived slot with otatool read_otadata after each switch.
It also checks extracted bytes and source integrity, the scan and caller
table offsets, flash_offset on the 0x1000 dump, a corrupted app beside
valid partitions and a truncated dump. ESP32 linker scripts place the
conformance bootloader and app in ESP32 address ranges.
* fix(artifacts): read ESP flash layouts as the bootloader does
Read the partition table as bootloader_utility_load_partition_table
does: the last factory, otadata and same-subtype OTA declaration wins,
and a limitation names repeats. Plan each otadata record within its
partition and the dump. An otadata partition smaller than two sectors
selects none, the bootloader's INVALID_INDEX; a record the dump lacks
leaves the selection unknown while the other record stays reported. The
fallbacks follow the bootloader's indexes: ota_0-fallback and
factory-fallback name no partition when the table declares none, and the
assumptions add GPIO holds and deep-sleep wake.
Refuse a dump whose bootloader contradicts its origin before the default
table offset is tried, whether flash_offset was omitted or given, and keep
the ESP image reader's ESP8266 refusal. A table never lies inside the
located bootloader image, so single app images are no longer scanned. An
explicit esp-flash-image selection is decided before other container
signatures, and the native commands' --target-format no longer takes it.
Say when no bootloader confirms the default origin.
Exempt the primary bootloader and partition_table entries of ESP-IDF 5.3
from placement limits, report every region inside a longer one, and name
partitions by index when labels repeat ignoring case. Keep an undecodable
label's bytes in label_hex and compare them. Word undescribed ranges as
starting at a byte that is not erased, and treat a short erased region as
erased.
Add an MCP compare_artifacts test for partition declarations, reader
identity and close tests, scan edge cases, the 0x2000 ROM offset and a
literal otatool CRC.
* test(artifacts): verify ESP primary layout entries and the otadata fallback
Build a table with the primary bootloader and partition_table entries
that gen_esp32part.py fills from --primary-bootloader-offset, and check
that REA reads it with complete coverage, no overlap or misplacement
limitation, and a table that agrees with gen_esp32part's decoding. Erase
the otadata with otatool after the slot switches and check the records
against read_otadata and the factory fallback.
* fix(artifacts): keep ESP flash coverage complete for a dump cut short
An esptool merge-bin dump ends after the last part it wrote, usually inside
its last partition. Such a partition made the layout's coverage unknown, so
artifact comparison of two merge-bin dumps reported every unchanged
partition as unknown.
The partition table names every partition whatever the file's length, so a
partition cut short or left out by the end of the file hides no entry. As
the ESP image reader does for a cut-short segment, its entry holds the bytes
the file has and an entry limitation gives the declared size; a partition
with no bytes stays in partitions_outside_dump. Coverage stays complete
unless undescribed bytes remain or no bootloader is located. An MCP
compare_artifacts test of two dumps that end inside ota_0 now classifies
every partition, and fails on the old rule.
* fix(artifacts): report written bytes in ESP partitions, erased slots included
An app slot is erased for ESP-IDF's bootloader when its image header bytes
are erased flash, and REA reported only that status. A slot can still hold
data further in: a dump read from a device held a complete older app image
1 MiB into an OTA slot reported as erased, with no limitation.
Each partition entry now records where the bytes the dump holds are
written, relative to the partition: written_offset, the first byte that is
not 0xFF, written_end, just past the last, and written_bytes, how many are
not 0xFF. They are null for a partition outside the dump. The status stays
erased, which is the bootloader's view, and a limitation names an erased
app slot that holds written bytes and says they are not read as an image.
The reader reads every partition byte once more to find them.
* fix(artifacts): derive the ESP boot selection for every partition table
The boot selection lived inside otadata, so a table without an otadata
partition, the common factory-only layout, had none. ESP-IDF's
bootloader_utility_get_selected_boot_partition returns the factory index
when the table declares no otadata partition.
Move it to a top-level boot_selection that every layout has. Its basis
names the bootloader's branch: otadata, factory-fallback and ota_0-fallback
from the records, no-otadata for a table without otadata, none for the
bootloader's INVALID_INDEX, and unknown when the dump lacks a record the
bootloader reads, which replaces the null selection. running_partition
moves with it, and otadata keeps its partition index and records. The
assumptions name what each branch leaves out: no records assumption
without otadata, and none for none or unknown. The real-tool lane checks
no-otadata on a table gen_esp32part built without otadata.
* fix(artifacts): say when an ESP image is a flash dump read from 0x1000
An ESP32 dump read from flash 0x1000, as read-flash 0x1000 or merge-bin
--target-offset 0x1000 writes it, opened automatically as its bootloader
image with a megabyte of undescribed bytes and no next probe. The flash
reader refuses that origin, but nothing told an agent which flash_offset to
pass.
espFlashDumpOrigin owns the inference: an image of a chip whose ROM loads
the bootloader from flash R, at file offset F, is the bootloader of a dump
read from R - F when a partition table sits where that origin puts 0x8000.
The ESP image reader asks it for a non-app image at file offset 0, so the
result does not depend on how the reader was created, and records
flash_dump {flash_offset, table_file_offset}, null otherwise, with a
limitation that says to reopen the file as esp-flash-image with that
flash_offset. inspect_artifact proposes the same open_binary call as a next
probe, and the flash reader's misplaced-origin refusal names the offset.
* perf(artifacts): summarize nested ESP images in the flash layout summary view
The summary view returned an ESP flash layout's root facts whole, so each
app partition and the bootloader carried every segment and signature
block, about half of a dump's summary.
The summary view now gives each nested image a summary instead of its
facts: status, chip, entry point, segment count, load ranges (each mapped,
loaded or unclassified segment's address and declared length), the
checksum and appended SHA-256 statuses, coverage and limitations. Complete
detail keeps the full facts, every segment included, and the retained
Evidence is unchanged. On a 16 MiB device dump the summary's root falls
from 5,141 to 2,657 bytes, and the summary Evidence from 10,038 to 7,554.
* test(artifacts): expect the misplaced image the ESP bootloader search reports
8a748d3cc added misplacedImage to the bootloader search, which the
locator uses to name the origin a misplaced bootloader implies, but one
test still compared the search result without it. Expect the image's
chip and file offset, and no image for an unknown chip.
* fix(artifacts): give every ESP partition from the dump's start an entry
After ecbc1a772 kept coverage complete for a dump cut short, a partition
wholly past the end of the file still had no entry, only a
partitions_outside_dump row. Comparing a merge-bin dump with a full device
read then reported that partition as added or removed, as if one table
did not declare it.
Every partition from the dump's first byte on is now an entry holding the
bytes the file has: none for one past the end, with a limitation saying
the file holds none of its bytes, no image facts and null written fields.
partitions_outside_dump keeps only partitions that begin before the dump's
first byte, and coverage is unknown when one does, since it has no entry.
Two dumps that lack the same partition now compare it as unchanged, and a
dump against a longer one reports the partition as changed; an MCP test
of a merge-bin dump against a full one checks that no path is added or
removed.
Unlike the ESP image reader, which marks a truncated image's coverage
unknown because later segments and signature blocks may be hidden, the
flash reader can list every partition from the table whatever the file's
length; only the entry limitation follows the image reader.
* fix(artifacts): select no ESP app from a partition table the bootloader rejects
boot_selection followed bootloader_utility_get_selected_boot_partition but
not the table check before it. For a table whose MD5 does not match, or
that has a second MD5 entry, esp_partition_table_verify fails, the
bootloader selects no app and resets. REA still derived a slot from the
otadata records, although the table's own limitation said the bootloader
rejects it.
The selection now has basis none, with no assumptions, for a table the
decoder marks invalid. It also follows two more branches of the
bootloader: an otadata partition at offset 0, which the bootloader takes
for none, selects the factory index as no-otadata, and a table without an
OTA app selects its fallback even when the dump lacks a record, since the
bootloader then ignores the records.
The bootloader also rejects a table whose partitions end past the flash
size in its header. REA does not model that check; the format guide says
so.
* fix(artifacts): require the ESP dump origin's table to follow the image
espFlashDumpOrigin named a later flash origin whenever a partition table
decoded where that origin puts 0x8000. Bytes inside the image's own
segments could be read that way, so an ESP32 bootloader whose segment data
held table-shaped bytes at file offset 0x7000 was reported as a dump read
from 0x1000.
The table must now start at or after the image's end, the rule the locator
already applies to the default table. The ESP image reader passes the
image_end it decoded, or the file size for a truncated image; the flash
reader's refusal passes the end of the misplaced image's segments. The
bootloader search drops its misplaced flag, which only restated
misplacedImage, and the next probe formats offsets with offsetText.
Reader tests cover the 0x1000 and 0x2000 ROM offsets, a standalone
bootloader, bytes that begin like a table, an app with a table at 0x7000
and a table inside a segment; without the boundary check, three of them
fail.
* fix(artifacts): give the ESP flash summary its own kind and each image's identity
The summary view's ESP flash root kept kind esp-flash-image, so a consumer
bound to kind could not tell an image's summary from its full facts, and
the advertised schema held two objects with the same kind const. It is now
esp-flash-image-summary.
The per-image summary also dropped the descriptor, which is what tells two
app slots apart, and named each image only by its partition index, which
the summary view, having no entry rows, could not resolve. Each nested
image now carries its entry path from the layout plan, in both views. The
summary adds the descriptor kind with its identifying fields (an app's
project_name, version, idf_ver, secure_version and app_elf_sha256; a
bootloader's version, idf_ver and secure_version), the signature block
count and each load range's classification. Its enums and fields derive
from the schemas that own them.
An MCP test reads a dump with an app in ota_0 and an erased ota_1 that
holds older bytes: it checks both summaries, that the summary's inventory
Evidence is the one the complete view returns with full facts, and the
erased slot's written range.
* test(artifacts): cover cancel and close during the ESP written-bytes scan
The written-bytes pass reads every byte of each partition the dump holds,
checking that the reader is open before each chunk, but only app decoding
had a cancellation and close test. A data partition, which only that pass
reads, now holds 9 MiB; once the scan has examined its first chunk, a
cancel rejects preparation with the caller's reason and a close with
unavailable, and the scan examines no further chunk.
The erased-slot test now asserts the whole set of erased-slot limitations,
so factory, ota_0 and nvs, which the bootloader reads or which are not app
slots, are shown to have none.
* docs(artifacts): re-time the ESP flash lane and state only observed causes
The lane ran again after its assertions changed; both esptool runs passed,
and the timed run's figures replace the earlier ones. The erased-slot
paragraph no longer names a cause for the older bytes, which REA cannot
observe, and the skill reference states that every table has a
boot_selection in its own sentence, with the none basis for a table the
bootloader rejects.
* fix(artifacts): retire ESP flash members as the ESP image reader does
#7498's maintainer commits made the ESP image reader keep a member owned
until its consumer closes it, retire fully buffered bytes when
cancellation arrives after production, and refuse to finish an inventory
paused across close. The ESP flash reader was copied from the earlier
reader. Main's shared stored-member lifecycle cases failed two of eight
against it: a paused inventory completed after close, and buffered member
bytes stayed readable after cancellation.
Give the flash reader the same lifecycle and run the shared cases against
it.
* docs(artifacts): re-time the ESP flash lane after merging main
The lane passed again with esptool v5.6.0 and 4.12.0 on the merge of upstream main. Record the v5.6.0 run's time and peak resident set.
* fix(artifacts): read ESP image Evidence recorded before flash_dump
The flash layout work made `flash_dump` a required field of the
`esp-image` root metadata. Evidence recorded before it has no such
field, so newer REA rejected records that were valid when they were
made: `compare_artifacts` and `inspect_analysis_view` reported
`evidence_integrity_mismatch` for them.
The field is now optional when read. A record without it parses as it
is, so the graph digest it commits to still matches; nothing fills the
field in. The image reader still writes it for every image, and the
inspection probe reads a missing field as no hint.
A regression test recommits an image inventory without the field and
passes it inline to `compare_artifacts` and `inspect_analysis_view`.
Against a server built with the required field, `compare_artifacts`
rejects it.
* fix(artifacts): stop the ESP flash gap scan when the reader closes
The scan for the first written byte in each undescribed gap checked
only the caller's signal. `close()` marks the reader closed and waits
for preparation, so it waited while the rest of a long erased gap was
read.
The gap scan now takes the reader's open check, as the written-bytes
scan and the image decoder do, and checks it before each chunk. Tests
cancel or close the reader after the scan's first chunk of a 9 MiB
erased gap and confirm that no later chunk is examined.
* fix(artifacts): name ESP partitions with Windows device labels by index
The safe-label rule accepted labels such as `NUL`, `con` or `COM1`, so
extraction wrote `partitions/NUL.bin`. Windows reserves those names
before any extension, and ordinary Windows tools cannot use such a
file.
A label that is a Windows device name (`CON`, `PRN`, `AUX`, `NUL`,
`COM0`-`COM9` and `LPT0`-`LPT9`, any case, alone or before a dot) now
takes the existing index fallback. The partition metadata and the
entry's source path keep the label.
* fix(artifacts): read ESP flash partitions' written bytes in one pass
Each partition got its own scan of the bytes the dump holds, so
partitions declared over the same bytes read them again and again.
Overlaps only add limitations, so a crafted table reached this normally:
94 overlapping partitions over a 32 MiB dump would examine about 3 GiB
before the first entry.
The reader now reads the bytes the partitions cover once. Partition
boundaries cut them into segments; one pass counts each segment's
written bytes and bounds, and each partition's extent is the sum of the
segments inside it. Every partition keeps its own declaration, extent
and limitations. The pass checks the reader's open state before each
chunk, as the per-partition scan did.
A test declares 60 partitions over one MiB, 40 over all of it and 20
over its first half, and checks each partition's extent and the
overlap limitations. The reader reads 1,113,256 bytes of the
1,114,112-byte dump; one scan per partition read 52,493,480.
* test(artifacts): fail the ESP lanes on failed commands and refusals
`otatool` turned a nonzero exit into returned text, which its callers
discarded, and `inspect()` returned `{ refused }`, which the flash lane
never checked. A failed command then surfaced later as a slot
assertion, an output-parser error or a TypeError, hiding its cause.
Commands the lanes need to succeed now reject with the output they
exited with: `otatool` and `inspect()` do so through a shared
`failedCommand`. An expected refusal is opt-in: `refusal()` returns
REA's output and fails the lane when REA opens the file. The ESP image
lane's two ESP8266 cases use it.
Checked by calling `otatool` on a file without a table, `inspect()` on a
file REA refuses and `refusal()` on a file REA opens; each rejects with
its cause.
* fix(artifacts): require a partition entry in an ESP partition table
The decoder counted the slot, not the partitions, so a lone MD5 entry
over the empty prefix, followed by the terminator, decoded as a table
with no partitions. Default and caller-selected detection then accepted
that empty layout, although the guide requires one partition.
A table now needs one partition entry before its terminator. An MD5
entry alone is refused as `entry 1 at 0x20 ends the table before any
partition entry`. The cases cover the decoder and both automatic and
caller-selected location.
* fix(artifacts): decode an image shared by ESP app partitions once
Each app partition got its own decode, so app partitions declared over
the same bytes decoded and hashed the same image again and again, the
same pattern the written-bytes scan had. With 60 app partitions over
one 960 KiB image the reader read 64,029,736 bytes of a 1,114,112-byte
dump.
Regions with the same file range now share one decode; each keeps its
own copy of the facts. Partitions with different ranges still decode
separately, because truncation can change the facts: at most one decode
per partition the table holds, each within its partition.
A test declares 60 app partitions over one image, 40 holding all of it
and 20 cutting it short, and expects three decodes: the bootloader, the
whole image and the cut one. The 60-partition dump now reads
2,161,864 bytes, as a dump with one app partition does.
Resolve exact external method targets from directly encoded DEX invokes.

* refactor(admission): own inspector, web, and CLI state per host
Replace the process-global inspector, web-bundle, guidance, and JavaScript
counters with objects a host passes in, so independent instances do not
share admission or cleanup.
* fix(admission): keep worker and file cleanup on the host
Web-bundle and JavaScript workers retry only their host registry, and
each Inspector admission authorizes and closes its own file scope.
Browser providers can share one web-bundle admission.
* test(inspector): gate one admission's file cleanup
The isolation test delayed the first ArtifactResourceScope.retryCleanup
call, so a second call on a shared ElectronFileScope still finished.
Hold first.files.retryCleanup until the other admission's close
finishes, then release and join before restoring the method.

* fix(cli): report incomplete debugger cleanup as typed outcomes
debug-with-gdb and debug-with-rizin hand-rolled final cleanup in
try/finally blocks: a failed or interrupted final close only logged
and assigned the process exit status, so callers still received
complete successful Evidence with no typed error or partial
observation.
Both commands now route through the shared close owner used by the
other one-shot CLI commands (deliverCliAnalysisEvidence /
finishAnalysisCommand) via a small closeDebuggerCommandSession
helper. A rejected closeAll projects as ProviderCleanupError, which
the owner turns into cleanup_incomplete retaining the completed
Evidence as partial observation; a signal observed after finalization
projects as cancelled with the same retained observation. The
per-session close failure still only logs, preserving the rule that
the retained owner's closeAll decides completion.
Fixes#7378. Fixes#7429.

inspect-apple-ips and inspect-pe-imports were the two commands in the
binary diagnostics group whose positional target was still a plain
string. An empty argument passed CLI validation, was resolved to the
working directory, and failed later as a non-file input, unlike their
siblings (inspect-elf-notes, inspect-pe-certificates and others) that
already reject it at validation.
Declare both targets with the shared nonempty, NUL-free local path
schema the rest of the file uses. Explicit "." is unchanged.
Fixes#7421
Local file commands in the core binary, native, managed and native-tool
CLI groups declared their positional target as a plain string. An empty
argument therefore reached path admission, where it resolved to the
working directory, as docs/cli.md says it never should.
Declare those targets with the shared nonempty, NUL-free local path
schema already used by analyze, so the CLI rejects them as a
VALIDATION_ERROR naming the field before any analysis runner is called.
Explicit "." is unchanged.

* feat(artifacts): compare artifacts by Evidence reference and from the CLI
compare_artifacts made agents send back the complete inventory Evidence
that REA already retains, and the CLI had no artifact comparison.
Each side of compare_artifacts now takes exactly one of: complete inline
Evidence (unchanged), {kind: "retained-evidence", evidence_id}, or
{kind: "evidence-file", path, evidence_id?}. The two references are the
sources inspect_analysis_view accepts; both tools now compose one
definition in evidenceReference.ts. A summary still resolves to its exact
retained parent, and every source form gives the same comparison Evidence.
An unresolvable retained reference is refused with a typed missing
reference error.
The application layer owns source resolution and the comparison Evidence,
so MCP and the new `rea compare-artifacts` command share one workflow.
readEvidenceFileSource reports bundle-selection refusals at the caller's
own field path.
* refactor(artifacts): resolve compare_artifacts sides like compare_functions
compare_functions, compare_wasm_interfaces and the JavaScript application
comparisons name each side with evidenceInputSchema and resolve it with
resolvePairedEvidenceRequest. compare_artifacts reached the same result
for inline and retained sides through its own dispatch.
evidenceSourceInputSchema now extends evidenceInputSchema with the
Evidence-file reference, and resolvePairedEvidenceSources sends inline and
retained sides to the same resolveEvidenceInput and file sides to the
shared Evidence file reader. compare_artifacts uses both, so the forms it
shares with compare_functions are parsed and resolved by one owner. The
advertised input schema is unchanged.
* docs(cli): point rea compare to compare-artifacts for inventory contents
rea compare (compare_bundles) compares records by Evidence identity and
explicit pairs and never reads artifact contents, so two build
inventories stay unresolved there. Its help and the CLI guide now name
compare-artifacts for that comparison.

Android overload selection declared a plain number, so the CLI argument
parser coerced the raw token with Number before the schema ran. An empty
token therefore arrived as 0, and hexadecimal, exponent, signed, and
float spellings arrived as their numeric value, leaving both commands to
proceed to artifact admission on a selector the caller never wrote as a
decimal integer.
Reuse the existing decimal token parser that the other integer CLI
options already use. Omitted and explicit decimal zero keep their current
meanings, and the published schema for overloadIndex is unchanged.
Validation: npm run compile, the cli-boundary vitest project for
tests/boundary/cli/cliIntegerArguments.test.ts (56 passed), npm run
typecheck, npm run lint, npm run lint:typed, npm run format:check, npm
run metadata:check, npm run verify:architecture-guards, and npm run
knip:production. The new cases fail against the base source and pass with
the change.

Link original DEX native declarations to per-ABI function exports and relocated static JNI table candidates through shared CLI/MCP workflows. Preserve global attribution ambiguity, exact provenance, partial coverage and retained Evidence; default MCP delivery to bounded summaries with filtered/batch pages.
Use one immutable ELF relocation decoder with streaming IL2CPP materialization, cooperative bounded export/version parsing and bounded JNI state. Reuse validated session inventories without loading target libraries or executing JNI code.
Validation: relevant type/lint/build and parser/domain/public CLI/MCP regressions; genuine four-ABI NDK fixtures and independent library/slot oracles; actual JDK/JADX Conscrypt workflows with retained-source removal. Full measurements and limitations are recorded in docs/verification/android-jni-bindings-2026-10-27.md.
Closes#6403.
Apply caller-selected R8/ProGuard mappings to shared Android inspections, preserving raw identities, exact verification, ambiguity and provenance. Add retained summaries and bounded/cached parsing, with measured real R8/Conscrypt workflows and review fixes.
