Subject: [PATCH 01/11] test(e2e): make every spec runnable and type-checked

Adds `typecheck:e2e` (tsc -p test/tsconfig.e2e.json --noEmit) and wires it into
CI Lite. 205 spec files were never type-checked by any lane; 34 errors were
hiding, 7 of them unused `@ts-expect-error` directives suppressing nothing.

Restores the 15 WDIO specs that no lane invoked. `e2e-run-all-flows.sh` is a
hand-maintained allowlist that had drifted from the spec directory, and `--spec`
overrides the wdio.conf glob that would otherwise have caught them. The orphan
guard in generate-test-inventory.mjs now fails on any spec no lane runs, so the
drift cannot recur silently: verified by adding an unlisted spec and observing a
non-zero exit that names it.

Subject: [PATCH 02/11] fix(ci): stop the domain e2e gate crediting
 compiled-out coverage
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

check-domain-e2e-coverage.mjs credited a controller when its literal appeared in
any tests/**/*_e2e.rs — including the 52 files that begin `#![cfg(any())]` and
compile to nothing. 176 distinct controllers were credited only by a
compiled-out file.

Also fixes discovery: `memory_sources` (17 live controllers) was invisible
because NAMESPACE is read per file, which had the side effect of scoring
`memory_tree` 5/5 on a namespace with 31 controllers — fail-open with a green
tick. SCHEMA_ROOTS omitted crates/openhuman-tinyhumans/src, leaving 34 more
unmeasured, and unit-test fixtures were counted as controllers.

Subject: [PATCH 03/11] test(rust): cover the uncovered RPC controllers

New targets for channels default-channel, memory graph round-trip, memory tree
health and tree summarizer ingest, with their [[test]] entries (root tests are
not auto-discovered). Extends the existing json_rpc, domain_modules,
memory_roundtrip and memory_sources suites for the remainder.

+//! Default messaging channel: `channels_set_default` / `channels_get_default`.
+//!
+//! # Why this target exists
+//!
+//! Both methods are in the domain-e2e gate's uncovered list
+//! (`scripts/check-domain-e2e-coverage.mjs`), which counts only
+//! `tests/**/*_e2e.rs` targets. Before this file the complete picture was:
+//!
+//! * `app/src/services/api/channelConnectionsApi.ts:255`, `:263` — **shipped
+//!   frontend code** calls both.
+//! * `app/src/services/api/channelConnectionsApi.test.ts:47-60` — a Vitest that
+//!   asserts the client *emits the right method name* against a mocked
+//!   transport. It never reaches the core, so it would keep passing if both
+//!   controllers were deleted tomorrow.
+//! * Four WDIO/Playwright specs call `channels_set_default` as **setup** and
+//!   assert nothing about it.
+//!
+//! So the round trip had no coverage anywhere above a mocked transport.
+//!
+//! # What is actually worth asserting
+//!
+//! A bare set→get round trip is the weak half. `channels/proactive.rs:100-116`
+//! documents the interesting invariant: `channels_set_default` mutates the live
+//! proactive subscriber's `active_channel` handle **in place** via
+//! `set_runtime_active_channel`, "so a default-channel switch from the UI takes
+//! effect without a restart" (issue #3712, "switch default channel
+//! Telegram<->Discord"), and `proactive.rs:226-240` reads that handle back on
+//! every proactive delivery. The failure that bug describes is: config
+//! persists, the live handle does not update, proactive messages keep going to
+//! the old channel until the process restarts — and a test that only reads the
+//! config back cannot see it.
+//!
+//! **That assertion IS made here** — see
+//! `set_default_applies_to_the_live_proactive_handle`. An earlier revision of
+//! this file omitted it, on the reasoning that `proactive.rs:135-138` says
+//! `set_runtime_active_channel` is "a no-op when no subscriber has registered a
+//! handle (e.g. unit tests)", so the assertion would pass vacuously. **That was
+//! wrong**: `register_active_channel_handle` (`proactive.rs:129`) is `pub`, so
+//! the test registers its own handle and no channel runtime is needed. The
+//! non-vacuity control is asserting the handle reads `None` *before* the call —
+//! without it, "still unset afterwards" would look like a pass.
+//!
+//! So this target asserts everything reachable from the RPC surface — the round
+//! trip across the wire, persistence, canonicalisation, the documented `"web"`
+//! fallback — plus the live-apply half that is the actual #3712 regression.
+//!
+//! No network: `api_url` points at a closed port.
+//!
+//! Run with: `cargo test -p openhuman-cli --test channels_default_channel_e2e`

+/// `channels.set_default` and `channels.get_default` differ in WIRE SHAPE.

+/// Nothing else pins this, and the difference is invisible to every helper that
+/// unwraps tolerantly. `set_default_channel` returns `RpcOutcome::single_log(...)`
+/// (`channels/controllers/ops/connect/status.rs:101-104`), so its payload arrives
+/// ENVELOPED as `{ result, logs }`. `get_default_channel` returns
+/// `RpcOutcome::new(_, vec![])` (`:115`), so its payload arrives BARE. Adding or
+/// removing a single log line in either handler silently changes what every
+/// caller must parse — the §6 log-envelope rule, on a live pair of methods.
+///
+/// The reason this needs its own case: the tolerant `payload()` helper here, and
+/// the equivalent in `tests/channels_default_channel_e2e.rs`, both unwrap an
+/// inner `result` when present and fall through when not. That is the right
+/// behaviour for a caller and it is exactly what makes the flip undetectable —
+/// every other test in both suites would keep passing if either handler's
+/// envelope inverted. So this case reads the RAW JSON-RPC result rather than the
+/// unwrapped payload.
+///
+/// **Scope:** wire shape only. `tests/channels_default_channel_e2e.rs` owns the
+/// round trip, on-disk persistence, canonicalisation, the `"web"` fallback, and

+//! Knowledge-graph relation round trip over the real JSON-RPC router.
+//!
+//! # Why this target exists
+//!
+//! `tests/memory_graph_sync_e2e.rs` was deleted in `cc99ba9c67` ("build(memory):
+//! cut the engine out of the test build", 2026-09-09) along with seventeen other
+//! test files, because it drove `tinymemory_core` directly and the engine left
+//! `[dev-dependencies]` in that commit. The deletion was structural — nothing
+//! decided the behaviour had stopped mattering — and nothing replaced it.
+//! Matrix row 11.1.1 records the hole as "the former graph-sync E2E was removed".
+//!
+//! # What was and was not left behind
+//!
+//! Two things DO cover part of this ground, and this file deliberately does not
+//! duplicate them:
+//!
+//! * `memory::ops::kv_graph_tests::graph_handlers_roundtrip_relation_rows` is a
+//!   unit test that upserts a relation and queries it back through a real
+//!   module-backed provider. It calls the `ops` functions **directly**, so it
+//!   proves the handler wiring but never touches JSON-RPC dispatch or the
+//!   `serde` layer that builds `GraphUpsertParams` / `GraphQueryParams` from a
+//!   wire payload.
+//! * `tests/worker_c_modules_e2e.rs` names `openhuman.memory_graph_upsert` and
+//!   `openhuman.memory_graph_query` in a 68-method loop that calls each with
+//!   `json!({})` and asserts `assert_rpc_completed`. That helper tolerates an
+//!   error response as long as it is not `unknown method:`, which is the
+//!   strongest thing a probe with no arguments can honestly claim. It is a
+//!   registration check and cannot observe a graph that writes and never reads
+//!   back.
+//!
+//! So what has no coverage at all, and is what this file asserts:
+//!
+//! 1. The **wire path** — that a relation posted as JSON to `/rpc` survives
+//!    deserialisation, dispatch, the guard, the module and serialisation back
+//!    out. Both params structs take `namespace` as `#[serde(default)] Option`,
+//!    so a wire payload takes a different path through serde than a
+//!    hand-built struct literal does.
+//! 2. **Namespace isolation** — that a relation stored under one namespace is
+//!    not returned when querying another.
+//!
+//! On (2): the deleted test asserted `all_rows.len() >= graph_rows.len()`, i.e.
+//! that an unfiltered query is a superset of a namespace-scoped one. That
+//! assertion is **weak on its own** — a driver that ignored the namespace filter
+//! entirely would return everything for both queries and still satisfy it. This
+//! file keeps the superset check because it pins the documented relationship,
+//! and adds the isolation check that actually fails when the filter breaks.
+//!
+//! Deliberately NOT covered here: `memory_tree_graph_export`. Despite the name
+//! it exports the summary-tree / contacts graph
+//! (`memory::read_rpc::graph::graph_export_rpc`), not the relation triples
+//! `graph_upsert` writes. It needs its own case.
+//!
+//! No network: the config points `api_url` at a closed port and disables
+//! embeddings, and every assertion is local.
+//!
+//! # Running it
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! cargo test -p openhuman-cli --features modules --test memory_graph_roundtrip_e2e
+//! ```
+//!
+//! **`--features modules` is required.** `openhuman-cli`'s `modules` feature is
+//! NOT in its `default` set (`crates/openhuman-cli/Cargo.toml:415`, `:423`), and
+//! without it `modules::memory::set_modules_policy` is `#[cfg]`-compiled away —
+//! so `ensure_memory_seams` becomes a silent no-op and every graph call answers
+//! "the module host policy was never published". The memory driver is
+//! module-backed, so there is no non-module path to assert against. The same
+//! applies to the sibling `tests/memory_roundtrip_e2e.rs`, which does not say
+//! so and fails 6/6 locally without the flag; that is environmental, not a
+//! defect in either file. CI's `rust-e2e` lane supplies both the feature and a
+//! built `TINYMEMORY_TEST_MODULE`.
+//!
+//! A large stack is also needed — `RUST_MIN_STACK=67108864` — because
+//! publishing the policy touches deeply nested config types.

+// ── A2: `openhuman.memory_scheduler_override` ────────────────────────
+//
+// Gate controller `memory_scheduler_override` had zero references under
+// `tests/` or `app/test/` before this test.
+//
+// The scheduler gate's pauses (`mode = off`, signed-out, battery) exist to stop
+// background work the user did not ask for. This RPC is the sanctioned
+// exception for work they explicitly did — "process my memory now" — so the
+// bound on how long that exception lasts is the whole safety property
+// (openhuman#5935). `memory/ops/sync.rs` clamps it host-side:
+//
+//     let seconds = seconds.unwrap_or(600).min(3600);
+//
+// and the handler reports back the value it *granted*, not the one that was
+// asked for. Two regressions are therefore invisible today: dropping the
+// `.min(3600)` opens an unbounded background-work window, and reporting the
+// requested rather than the granted value makes every surface that displays it
+// lie about when maintenance stops.
+//
+// This goes over JSON-RPC rather than calling the handler directly, because
+// with the `modules` feature on the call dispatches into the loaded tinymemory
+// module — the same boundary the rest of this file exercises. If the module is
+// unavailable the call fails loudly here rather than silently skipping.
+
+/// The clamp is a safety bound, so each case pins the exact granted value.
+///
+/// `None` → the 600 s default; a value under the ceiling passes through
+/// unchanged; a value over the ceiling is cut to 3600. The three expected
+/// values are mutually distinct, so no single constant satisfies all three.

+//! End-to-end cover for the `memory_tree` health and lifecycle controllers.
+//!
+//! # Why this target exists
+//!
+//! `memory_tree` reported **5/5, 100%** to
+//! `scripts/check-domain-e2e-coverage.mjs` while carrying **31** dispatchable
+//! controllers. Discovery read `const NAMESPACE` one file at a time, so it only
+//! saw the five declared in `memory/tree/retrieval/schemas.rs` — the other 26
+//! live in `memory/schema/{tree_operations,vault_and_pipeline}_schema.rs` and
+//! reach their `const` through `use super::*`. A namespace nobody measures is
+//! the same fail-open shape as a test filter that matches nothing, except this
+//! one had a green tick on it. The gate fix in the same change makes the real
+//! figure 24/31; the seven cases below are the gap it exposes.
+//!
+//! These are NOT in `tests/raw_coverage/memory_goals_people_e2e.rs`, the file
+//! that already drives `memory_tree_*`, because that file opens with
+//! `#![cfg(any())]` (the #6382 quarantine) and compiles to nothing. Adding a
+//! case there would credit the coverage gate and run no code at all.
+//!
+//! # What is asserted, and what is not
+//!
+//! Every case here asserts a claim the handler makes about itself, not that a
+//! call returns 200. Where a claim needs state this harness cannot produce —
+//! a terminally failed job for `retry_failed` to requeue — the case asserts the
+//! cross-method invariant that IS reachable and says so in a comment, rather
+//! than asserting `0 == 0` and calling it coverage.

+//! E2E coverage for the `tree_summarizer` ingestion buffer.
+//!
+//! Gate controller `tree_summarizer_ingest` had zero references under `tests/`
+//! or `app/test/` before this target.
+//!
+//! The claim under test is a **boundary contract**, which is why this is an RI
+//! suite rather than a unit test. `memory/tree/tree_runtime/ops.rs` defaults the
+//! timestamp host-side, deliberately, and says why:
+//!
+//!     // Defaulted here rather than driver-side, exactly as before: the reply
+//!     // echoes the instant the content was filed under, and a timestamp the
+//!     // driver resolved would disagree with the one reported here by however
+//!     // long the call took to cross.
+//!
+//! If that defaulting ever migrates across the bus, the reply starts reporting
+//! a different instant than the one the content was actually filed under. The
+//! field stays present and stays plausible, so every downstream ordering or
+//! dedupe decision keyed on that echo drifts silently. Nothing catches it
+//! today.
+//!
+//! Run with: `cargo test -p openhuman-cli --test tree_summarizer_e2e`

Subject: [PATCH 04/11] test(e2e): add browser coverage for plan review,
 durable reply and parallel turns

Plan-mode park/resume/reject, a durable agent reply surviving a mid-stream
reload, two threads streaming without cross-talk, a remote link that never
navigates the main webview, and credential-scoped channel access.

Turns are driven over openhuman.channel_web_chat rather than by typing: the
composer crashes the renderer with React "Maximum update depth exceeded" on
synthetic input, so a keystroke-driven spec cannot be written here.

+ * External navigation — a remote page never loads in the main webview.
+ *
+ * Matrix 4.2.11 is 🟡 and says *"automated desktop E2E is a follow-up (the WDIO
+ * desktop runner still assumes CEF)"*. **That parenthetical is stale.** The
+ * Appium/CEF backend was removed in #5478 precisely because CDP does not exist
+ * under Wry; the runner is a single `tauri-driver` WebDriver session against
+ * the native WebKit webview (`app/scripts/e2e-run-session.sh:14-15`,
+ * `app/test/wdio.conf.ts:10-14`), and the shell is
+ * `pub(crate) type AppRuntime = tauri::Wry` unconditionally
+ * (`crates/openhuman-app/src/lib.rs:131`). The stated blocker is gone.
+ *
+ * This is the one case in this slice that cannot be a Playwright spec. The
+ * claim is about the *shell's* policy: `external_navigation::init()`'s
+ * `on_navigation` hook returns `false` for any http(s) navigation of the `main`
+ * window that is not the app origin or the dev server, cancelling it and handing
+ * the URL to the OS opener (`crates/openhuman-app/src/external_navigation.rs:54-89`).
+ * A browser has no such hook, so a Playwright version would assert nothing.
+ *
+ * RU (`external_navigation_tests.rs`) proves `navigation_handoff` returns the
+ * right answer. It cannot prove the plugin is *installed on the main window in
+ * the shipping build* — a wiring regression (registered late, or on the wrong
+ * webview) passes every existing test while the main webview, which holds the
+ * app's IPC bridge, loads someone else's origin. That is a security boundary,
+ * not a UX defect, which is why it is worth a desktop spec of its own.
+ *
+ * ## No network leaves this machine
+ *
+ * The probe host is under `.invalid`, the TLD RFC 2606 reserves as guaranteed
+ * never to resolve. The assertion is that navigation did NOT happen, so the URL
+ * never needs to load; and when the policy works as intended it hands the URL to
+ * the OS opener, whose own lookup fails at DNS. Nothing contacts a real service
+ * on either branch.

+ * Credential channels — Yuanbao (10.1.5) and Email/IMAP-SMTP (10.1.6).
+ *
+ * Both are `api_key` channels: the user pastes credentials into the generic
+ * `ChannelSetupModal` and the core validates them against the channel's
+ * `ChannelDefinition`. Neither had a spec at any UI layer —
+ * `git grep -l 'yuanbao\|imap' app/test/e2e/specs app/test/playwright/specs`
+ * returned nothing — which is what matrix rows 10.1.5 ("No WDIO spec yet") and
+ * 10.1.6 ("WDIO connect-flow [is a] follow-up") record.
+ *
+ * ## What this asserts, and what it deliberately leaves to the Rust unit tests
+ *
+ * The Rust side already covers the *ops layer* for both channels:
+ * `channels/controllers/ops_yuanbao_email_tests.rs` and
+ * `ops/connect_email_config_tests_tests.rs` cover credential→config mapping,
+ * defaults, port/sender parsing, persist + disconnect and pre-network
+ * invalid-port rejection. Re-asserting any of that here would duplicate it.
+ *
+ * What no layer covered is the **RPC surface these channels are reached
+ * through**: that each one is in the definition table `channels_list` serves,
+ * that `channels_describe` returns the field set the setup modal renders its
+ * inputs from, and that connect→status→disconnect round-trips over the wire.

+ * "unknown channel" before any of the covered code runs. Slack and WhatsApp are

+ *
+ * Mirrors the C.1/C.2/C.3/C.4/C.8/C.9 shape of `telegram-channel-flow.spec.ts`,
+ * which is the house pattern for a channel lifecycle.
+ *
+ * No network: `api_key` connect stores credentials locally. The Yuanbao
+ * sign-token preflight and the IMAP login are not reached — this spec never
+ * supplies credentials that would pass validation into a live call, and the

+/**
+ * Drive a chat turn the way the product does, without touching the composer.
+ *
+ * Every turn in these specs goes out over `openhuman.channel_web_chat` — the
+ * same RPC `chatService.sendChatMessage` calls (`src/services/chatService.ts:1631`).
+ * Two reasons, and only the second is about a bug:
+ *
+ *  1. It separates what is under test from how the text got there. A spec about
+ *     stream routing or a parked gate should not fail because the composer
+ *     changed, and a composer regression should not be reported as a routing
+ *     one.
+ *  2. `ComposerTextBridge` used to chain a synchronous `setState` per keystroke
+ *     past React's nested-update limit, so an automated driver typing at speed
+ *     took the chat surface to its error boundary
+ *     (`src/features/conversations/components/AssistantUiChat.composerSync.test.tsx`).
+ *     That is fixed and pinned by a unit test, but nothing here needs to depend
+ *     on it staying fixed.
+ *
+ * The one thing the RPC cannot invent is `client_id`: the core routes the
+ * stream to the socket that id belongs to, so a made-up one runs the turn and
+ * delivers it nowhere this page can see. We read the live socket id out of the
+ * store (`src/store/socketSlice.ts`, exposed as `window.__OPENHUMAN_STORE__`),
+ * and send from inside the page so the request carries the renderer's own
+ * credentials.

+ * Durable agent reply — losing the stream costs a repaint, not the answer.
+ *
+ * Matrix 4.2.10 states the contract: `deliver_response` persists an unsegmented
+ * reply under `agent:<request_id>` BEFORE publishing the terminal event, so a
+ * dropped socket, a failed `threads_message_append` or a reloaded webview costs
+ * a repaint rather than the answer, and the client's own append collapses onto
+ * that row by id. Its note says what is missing: *"WD E2E (kill the append
+ * mid-turn) is a follow-up"*.
+ *
+ * The existing layers cover the two ends. RU
+ * (`web_chat/reply_persistence_tests.rs`) proves the core writes the row, its
+ * idempotency and the empty/missing-thread paths. VU
+ * (`providers/__tests__/ChatRuntimeProvider.test.tsx`) proves the mirrored id
+ * and the refetch — against a mocked client. Neither runs the round trip
+ * through a real transport, and this is a data-loss contract: when it breaks,
+ * a finished answer disappears, or appears twice. Nothing errors either way.
+ *
+ * Two instruments, deliberately different:
+ *
+ *   1. A reload mid-stream. Cheap, needs no fault injection, and is the exact
+ *      "reloaded webview" the contract names.
+ *   2. Failing one real `threads_message_append` over the wire. The renderer
+ *      posts that RPC itself (`src/services/api/threadApi.ts:85`) to the core
+ *      URL seeded into localStorage, so Playwright can fail exactly one call
+ *      and let the rest through. There is no fault-injection hook on the core
+ *      side and none is needed.
+ *
+ * "Exactly once" is the assertion in both cases, not "present". A broken

+ * (`web_chat/web_tests.rs`) drives concurrent same-/cross-thread dispatch and
+ * cooperative cancellation; its VU coverage (`chatRuntimeSlice`,
+ * `ChatRuntimeProvider`) drives the parallel-lane routing through the slice.
+ * Both are real, and neither has two live sockets.
+ *
+ * This is deliberately NOT in `chat-thread-isolation.spec.ts`, which owns the
+ * adjacent surface. That file has exactly one turn in flight in every case —
+ * thread B is idle throughout — and a routing bug that keys a stream by "the
+ * selected thread" instead of by thread id is invisible with one stream and
+ * catastrophic with two: the second turn's tokens land in whichever thread the
+ * user happens to be looking at. It also drives its turns by typing, which
+ * these do not (see `helpers/chat-drive.ts`).
+ *
+ * Both cases need per-turn content, so the mock is scripted with keyword rules
+ * carrying their own `streamScript` rather than the global `llmStreamScript`
+ * (which would hand both turns the same text and make them indistinguishable).

+ * Plan-mode review — the live turn really parks, and the user's decision
+ * really releases it.
+ *
+ * Matrix 4.2.7 is ✅ on RU + RI + VU, and the note says why that is not enough:
+ * *"WD E2E (agent-driven park flow) tracked as follow-up"*. The three existing
+ * layers each own one end of the mechanism and none of them owns the join:
+ *
+ *   RU  `agent/plan_review/gate.rs`   — the oneshot parks, resolves, TTL-rejects.
+ *   RI  `tests/json_rpc_e2e.rs`       — `plan_review_decide` answers.
+ *   VU  `aui/PlanReviewPart.test.tsx` — the card renders and calls the RPC.
+ *
+ * What nothing covers is a REAL turn held open on an in-memory oneshot
+ * (`PlanReviewGate`, one per process, not a database row) while a browser paints
+ * a card from a socket event, and released when that card's button resolves it.
+ * Every one of those pieces can pass its own test while the turn stays parked
+ * forever — and a parked turn is silent. No error, no log line saying why; the
+ * user watches a spinner that never ends.
+ *
+ * Turns are driven over `openhuman.channel_web_chat` (see `helpers/chat-drive.ts`),
+ * never by typing, so a composer change cannot be reported as a gate failure.
+ *
+ * The agent is scripted through the mock's keyword rules. Stage 1 matches the
+ * prompt and answers with a `request_plan_review` tool call; stage 2 matches the
+ * tool's own result string, which the core fixes verbatim
+ * (`agent/plan_review/tool.rs`: "approved: the user approved the plan…",
+ * "rejected: the user rejected the plan…", "revise: the user requested changes…").
+ * That is what makes the approve/reject assertions real rather than cosmetic:
+ * the branch the gate took has to reach the model for the next stage to fire.

Subject: [PATCH 05/11] test(e2e): unskip quarantined specs and give them real
 assertions

The Playwright auth suite had 4 of 6 tests unconditionally skipped, including
logout and auth expiry; runtime-picker-login had 2 more. Those, and the
assertion rewrites alongside them, now run and can fail.

+/**
+ * Local model runtime — the app-managed surface is gone; the route redirects.
+ *
+ * # What this file used to be, and why it was replaced
+ *
+ * Until 2026-09-24 this spec was a single `describe.skip`ped case driving a
+ * "Local model runtime" card, a "Manage" button and a "Runtime Status" panel,
+ * with the reason given as *"CI does not provision a live Ollama server, so
+ * keep this spec skipped until a deterministic mockable local-runtime harness
+ * exists for WDIO."*
+ *
+ * That reason had stopped being the real one. Commit `0ec68613af` removed the
+ * local-model debug panel outright, so every control the old case reached no
+ * longer exists — unskipping it would not have needed an Ollama server, it
+ * would have failed on the first `waitForText('Local model runtime')`. The
+ * spec was not waiting for a harness; it was testing deleted UI.
+ *
+ * That mattered beyond tidiness: `docs/TEST-COVERAGE-MATRIX.md` cited this file
+ * as the evidence for **3.1.1, 3.1.2, 3.2.1, 3.2.3** (all ✅) and **3.3.3.2**
+ * (🟡). Five rows rested on a spec that had never executed an assertion, and
+ * because the file *is* wired into the `system` suite it was collected,
+ * launched and reported as a pass every run. A skipped spec that four ✅ rows
+ * point at is worse than no spec: it reads as coverage from the matrix and
+ * costs a lane slot to produce nothing.
+ *
+ * # What this file asserts now
+ *
+ * The one claim about the local-model surface that is true, checkable on the
+ * desktop shell, and worth defending: **the legacy deep route is a redirect,
+ * not a dead end.** `settingsRouteElements.tsx` maps `local-model-debug` to
+ * `<Navigate to="/connections?tab=llm" replace />`, so a user following an old
+ * link, bookmark or doc lands on the page that replaced it. If that `Navigate`
+ * is dropped in a future settings-route refactor the route renders nothing and
+ * the failure is silent — a blank settings pane, no console error.
+ *
+ * The web lane asserts the same redirect
+ * (`app/test/playwright/specs/local-model-runtime.spec.ts`); this is the
+ * desktop-shell half, where the hash router runs inside the real Wry webview
+ * rather than a browser tab.
+ *
+ * `navigateViaHash` is deliberately not used: its `HASH_REDIRECTS` table does
+ * not carry this route, so it would wait for the wrong target hash and time
+ * out. Driving `window.location.hash` and polling for the settled value tests
+ * the app's own router rather than the helper's copy of the route map — which
+ * is the point, since a stale copy is exactly what this guards against.

Subject: [PATCH 06/11] fix(about): drop settings paths for a panel that no
 longer exists

Six local_ai capabilities advertised "Settings > Local AI Model" routes for a
panel that was deleted, so the catalog told users to visit a screen that is not
there. Found by writing the coverage for it; unit tests added alongside, and the
coverage matrix rows this invalidates are updated.

+//! RAM-driven local-model tier selection, asserted from OpenHuman's own seam.
+//!
+//! # Why these live here and not upstream
+//!
+//! The thresholds these tests pin (`MIN_RAM_GB_FOR_LOCAL_AI`, the `recommend_tier`
+//! bands) belong to `tinyinference_local::presets`, which has its own unit tests
+//! in `presets_test.rs` / `presets_device_test.rs`. **No OpenHuman lane runs
+//! them.** `vendor` is listed in the root `[workspace] exclude`, both Rust lanes
+//! invoke `cargo test --manifest-path Cargo.toml --workspace` or a named
+//! `--test <target>`, and no CI step names `tinyinference-local`. The crate sits
+//! two submodule hops down, under `vendor/tinyagents/vendor/tinyinference/`.
+//!
+//! OpenHuman *consumes* those thresholds — `inference_apply_preset` and
+//! `inference_presets` are built on `apply_preset_to_config` and
+//! `current_tier_from_config` in this module, and `inference/ops.rs` calls
+//! `detect_device_profile` and `presets::recommend_tier` directly. So an
+//! upstream change to a band silently changes what OpenHuman recommends, and
+//! nothing that runs would notice.
+//!
+//! These are therefore **consumer contract tests**: they assert the behaviour
+//! OpenHuman depends on, at the version OpenHuman has pinned. They are not a
+//! second copy of the upstream suite — they cover only the values this repo's
+//! own RPC surface hands to users.
+//!
+//! # What is NOT covered here, and cannot be
+//!
+//! `inference_device_profile` reports the *real host's* RAM, so the RPC layer
+//! can only assert `total_ram_bytes > 0` (which `tests/json_rpc_e2e.rs` already
+//! does). OpenHuman exposes no seam that injects a synthetic device profile, so
+//! the threshold behaviour is reachable only by constructing a `DeviceProfile`
+//! in-process, as below. An end-to-end "this 4 GB machine defaulted to cloud"
+//! assertion would need that injection seam and is not written.

+/// The `Settings > Local AI Model` panel no longer exists, and six `local_ai`
+/// entries still send users to it.
+///
+/// `0ec68613af` removed the local-model debug panel. Its route is now a
+/// redirect — `app/src/components/settings/settingsRouteElements.tsx` maps
+/// `local-model-debug` to `<Navigate to="/connections?tab=llm" replace />` —
+/// and no settings surface renders the string "Local AI Model" any more (the
+/// only remaining occurrence in the app is a dead i18n key, `voice.openLocalAiModel`,
+/// which nothing mounts).
+///
+/// These entries are user-visible: the Privacy panel renders whatever
+/// `about_app.list` returns, so a stale breadcrumb is a user following a
+/// navigation path that silently lands somewhere else. That is the same defect
+/// #6464 reported for `conversation.suggested_questions`, and the guard written
+/// for it (`suggested_questions_stays_coming_soon_until_a_producer_exists`,
+/// above) asserts exactly this shape — it just does not cover the `local_ai`
+/// domain.
+///
+/// This assertion is a ratchet, not a description. Two ways to satisfy it, and
+/// whoever lands either reads this comment on the way past:
+///
+///   1. The panel comes back — then the breadcrumb is true again and naming the
+///      real route satisfies the check.
+///   2. The panel stays gone — then each entry either points at the surface that
+///      actually serves it, or states in prose that the capability has no user
+///      control yet. `local_ai.python_runtime_installer` in the same table is
+///      the in-repo precedent for the second shape: no breadcrumb, status
+///      unchanged, the `how_to` says where the behaviour lives instead.
+///
+/// What this cannot assert: that the route named by a breadcrumb resolves in
+/// the React router. That tie is cross-language and belongs to a VU or PW case.
+/// This is the part that can be pinned from Rust — that no `local_ai` entry

Subject: [PATCH 07/11] test(app): close read-through gaps the existing suites
 could not fail

OAuthProviderButton: every existing case rendered a google stub with the id
swapped, so the suite passed even if `github` or `discord` were misspelled in
the real config. Asserts the provider id against providerConfigs instead.

ToolsPanel and OnboardingLayout both re-send the whole StoredOnboardingTasks
record on save, so each must carry flags it does not own. Every prior fixture set
those flags to false, which made a dropped flag unobservable.

Subject: [PATCH 08/11] fix(test-types): declare the fields startMockServer
 actually returns
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The first version of this declaration described only the already-running shape,
so `requestedPort` and `retried` — which a fresh start does report
(scripts/mock-api/server.mjs) — were absent. Everything compiled until
mockApiCore.portSelection.test.ts read them, which is how CI Fast's frontend:tsc
lane failed on this branch.

A declaration NARROWER than the runtime hides fields that exist, which is the
mirror of the hazard the MockRequestEntry note in this file already warns about.
Both directions are now documented beside the types they describe.

Subject: [PATCH 09/11] test(e2e): cover the assistant-ui elements that had no
 end-to-end assertion

assistant-ui is 178 files with 52 unit tests and, until now, almost no
rendered-surface coverage: of 18 recently-churned element families only
approval-card and tool-timeline appeared in any spec. #6604, #6611 and the
desktop-shell refresh all shipped with unit tests and nothing end-to-end.

Ten specs, 22 tests, covering conversation map and search, agent status, todo
list, agent plan, context usage, tool-result elements, guardrail notice,
schedule card and subagent list. 13 pass; the 9 that fail are enumerated in the
PR body, and most of them are findings rather than broken specs.

Turns are driven over openhuman.channel_web_chat: synthetic input into the
composer crashes the renderer with React "Maximum update depth exceeded", so a
keystroke-driven spec cannot be written against this surface.

Deliberately NOT tested through /dev/tools: that gallery renders 7 of these
families and is registered only in dev builds, so asserting there would prove
nothing about the product.

+ * `guardrail-notice` — and the wiring gap that keeps it off screen.
+ *
+ * Family: `components/assistant-ui/elements/guardrail-notice.tsx`, mounted by
+ * `features/conversations/aui/ChatErrorNotice.tsx`. Zero e2e coverage before
+ * this spec, and the reason turns out to be structural rather than an
+ * oversight.
+ *
+ * **The card is unreachable on the product web-chat path today.** The chain:
+ *
+ *  1. `ChatErrorNotice` renders only when a message carries
+ *     `extraMetadata.chatError.errorType === 'guardrail'` plus a
+ *     `GuardrailPayload`.
+ *  2. The only writer of that metadata is `ChatRuntimeProvider`'s
+ *     `chatErrorExtraMetadata`, fed by a **`chat_error` socket event**.
+ *  3. The only emitter of a `chat_error` carrying a guardrail payload is
+ *     `core/socketio.rs:886`, inside the `socket.on("chat", …)` handler.
+ *  4. The renderer never emits a socket `chat` event. Every turn is sent over
+ *     RPC — `chatService.sendChatMessage` calls `openhuman.channel_web_chat`
+ *     (`chatService.ts:1631`), and that file's own header says so.
+ *  5. On the RPC path `channel_web_chat` does `start_chat(…).await?`
+ *     (`web_chat/ops/channel_ops.rs:212`), so a guardrail rejection propagates
+ *     as an **RPC error** and no socket event is emitted at all.
+ *  6. The RPC error is NOT lossy — it carries the full `GuardrailPayload`
+ *     after a `GUARDRAIL:` sentinel (`start_chat.rs:97`, `:113-115`), verified
+ *     by the first test below. So everything the card needs already reaches the
+ *     renderer; only the parse is missing.
+ *  7. The classifier that would close the gap is unbuilt and says so:
+ *     "`is_guardrail_error_message` / `GUARDRAIL_ERROR_PREFIX` are for a future
+ *     RPC-layer classifier … nothing in-crate consumes them yet"
+ *     (`web_chat/ops.rs:25-27`).
+ *
+ * So this spec asserts the behaviour that exists — a blocked turn is refused at
+ * the RPC boundary and never becomes a turn — and pins the absence of the card
+ * as a KNOWN GAP. When someone wires the future classifier, the second
+ * assertion here fails, which is the intended signal: it means the card can now
+ * render and this spec should be rewritten to assert its contents (verdict tag
+ * plus the guardrail's cited reasons) instead of its absence.
+ *
+ * Writing it the other way round — asserting the card appears — would have
+ * produced a spec that fails today for a reason unrelated to any regression.

+ * `schedule-card` — the card a `cron_*` tool call renders instead of raw JSON.
+ *
+ * Family: `components/assistant-ui/elements/schedule-card.tsx`, mounted on the
+ * product chat path by `features/conversations/aui/ChatScheduleCard.tsx`, which
+ * `aui/toolkit.tsx` registers for `cron_add` / `cron_update` (as
+ * `CronAddOrUpdateCall`) and `cron_list` (as `CronListCall`). Zero e2e coverage
+ * before this spec.
+ *
+ * The agent really calls the tool here. The mock LLM is scripted to answer with
+ * a `cron_add` tool call; the CORE executes it, creates a real job and returns
+ * a real `CoreCronJob`, and the toolkit routes that result to the card. Nothing
+ * is hand-fed to the component — which is the point, because
+ * `CronAddOrUpdateCall` returns `null` unless `isCoreCronJob(result)` accepts
+ * the shape, so a card on screen is itself evidence that the core's own job
+ * shape reached the renderer intact.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ STATUS 2026-09-24: THIS SPEC DOES NOT PASS YET, and the reason is upstream
+ * of anything it asserts. Observed on a real run against the web lane: the core
+ * answered **`unknown tool cron_add`** and the assistant narrated that as prose
+ * — the transcript rendered `Stopping: the cron_add call` and three
+ * `unknown tool cron_add (` paragraphs as ordinary markdown, so the tool call
+ * was attempted and rejected rather than executed. No schedule card can render
+ * from a call the core refuses.
+ *
+ * That is the observation, and it is reproducible. The CAUSE is not known. A
+ * domain-gating explanation was hypothesised (`cron_*` maps to
+ * `DomainGroup::Automation` at `tools/ops.rs:1273`, and `DomainSet::harness()`
+ * has `automation: false`) and is *consistent* with it, but the runtime default
+ * is `DomainSet::full()` (`core/runtime/builder.rs:486`) where automation is on,
+ * and nothing was found that narrows it for a web-chat turn. Consistent-with is
+ * not caused-by; whoever picks this up should start from what populates the
+ * agent's tool set for a web-chat turn, not from that hypothesis.
+ *
+ * ⛔ UPSTREAM BREAKAGE, established by a CONTROL rather than by inference:
+ * **tool calls do not render in the Playwright web lane on this branch.** The
+ * pre-existing `test/playwright/specs/tool-call-presentation.spec.ts` (tracked,
+ * last touched by `cd3806b19`, authored by nobody in this round) fails at
+ * `expect(page.getByTestId('tool-timeline')).toBeVisible()` — and fails AFTER
+ * its canary assertion passes, so the turn completed and the agent replied
+ * while no tool call rendered.
+ *
+ * That control is sound on its own terms: its `beforeEach` boots the page
+ * BEFORE the test body sets `llmForcedResponses`, so the ordered-queue hazard
+ * (boot-time LLM requests eating queue entries) cannot apply to it, and the
+ * canary rendering proves the scripted sequence was consumed by the intended
+ * turn.
+ *
+ * It went unnoticed because that spec DOES run in ci-full's 64-shard sweep, but
+ * the job carries `continue-on-error: true` and is excluded from the gate
+ * (#3615) — a broken tool-render path fails there invisibly. Which is the
+ * regression class a non-blocking lane is built to hide.
+ *
+ * For THIS spec that is a second, independent blocker: even had `cron_add`
+ * resolved, `CronAddOrUpdateCall` is also a toolkit render on a tool-call part,
+ * so the card could not have rendered. The observed `unknown tool cron_add`
+ * rejection and this render breakage are two separate problems that happen to
+ * produce the same red.
+ *
+ * A second, independent defect in this spec: `getByText(JOB_NAME)` hit a strict
+ * mode violation, resolving to four elements. That needs a narrower locator
+ * regardless of the tool-availability problem above.
+ *
+ * A note on tool names, because the tree currently disagrees with itself:
+ * `tools/impl/meta/collapse.rs`'s header says the scheduler surface "is a
+ * single `cronjob` tool". It is not. `crates/openhuman-core/src/cron/tools/*.rs`
+ * still register `cron_add`, `cron_list`, `cron_update`, `cron_remove`,
+ * `cron_run` and `cron_runs` individually, and `cronjob` appears nowhere but
+ * that comment. The toolkit keys on the individual names, so the card works —
+ * but if the collapse ever lands, `toolkit.tsx` has no `cronjob` entry and this
+ * whole family silently falls back to the raw JSON `ToolDataView`. This spec
+ * would catch that.

+/**
+ * `subagent-list` — the fan-out roster a parallel delegation renders.
+ *
+ * Family: `components/assistant-ui/elements/subagent-list.tsx`, mounted on the
+ * product chat path by `features/conversations/aui/ParallelAgentsCard.tsx`,
+ * which `aui/toolkit.tsx` registers for `spawn_parallel_agents`. Zero e2e
+ * coverage before this spec.
+ *
+ * This element is worth an e2e specifically because it is NOT fed by its own
+ * tool result. `ParallelAgentsCard` reads the thread's live tool timeline and
+ * keeps only rows whose `subagent.parentCallId` equals this call's
+ * `toolCallId` (`selectSubagentChildrenByParentCallId`), because parallel
+ * workers arrive as independent `subagent:*` timeline rows rather than inside
+ * the call's own nested transcript. So the card joins two separate streams —
+ * the tool-call part and the per-worker progress events — on an id. A unit test
+ * hands both sides to the component already correlated; only an end-to-end run
+ * can show the core actually stamps `parent_call_id` with the id the renderer
+ * is looking for. If that correlation breaks, `children.length === 0` and the
+ * card returns `null` — the fan-out renders as nothing at all, silently.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ STATUS 2026-09-24: THIS SPEC DOES NOT PASS YET, and the failure is NOT
+ * isolated. Observed: `assistant-ui-parallel-agents-call` never appeared within
+ * 60s. That is all that is known. The page snapshot in the Playwright artifact
+ * was truncated before the transcript, and the artifact directory was later
+ * overwritten by another agent's run (`app/test-results/` is shared, unlocked
+ * state), so there is no evidence of what the transcript contained.
+ *
+ * Three candidate causes, none confirmed here, recorded so the next person does
+ * not re-derive them. The third is the best supported:
+ *
+ * (a) The core-side rejection the sibling schedule-card spec observed for
+ *     `cron_add`, which would mean `spawn_parallel_agents` never ran.
+ * (b) A rendering-side absence: another agent's scripted `memory_store` call
+ *     completed a turn while the DOM held zero tool-call wrappers of any kind.
+ * (c) **Socket events not reaching the browser on this lane.** This card's rows
+ *     come from `state.chatRuntime.toolTimelineByThread`, populated by the
+ *     `subagent_spawned` SOCKET event (`ChatRuntimeProvider.tsx:890-930`, whose
+ *     own comment calls it "this socket ... event"). No events, no children,
+ *     and `ParallelAgentsCard` returns `null` for `children.length === 0` —
+ *     exactly the observed symptom. A third agent measured 11 of 11 failures on
+ *     surfaces fed this way (plan review, elicitation), with the page snapshot
+ *     showing the non-pending branch rendering because
+ *     `pendingPlanReviewByThread` was never populated.
+ *
+ * Two hypotheses were raised and BOTH are now dead, recorded because the
+ * reasoning is the useful part:
+ *
+ * - "Streamed text arrives, so only specific event types fail." The CONCLUSION
+ *   survives, but the evidence originally offered for it did not: it rested on
+ *   settled markdown in the transcript, and a finished assistant message looks
+ *   identical whether it streamed in or was refetched afterwards. The DOM does
+ *   not record how content arrived.
+ * - "No live socket events arrive at all; everything seen was refetched from the
+ *   transcript after the turn." Measured and killed: `chat-thread-isolation`
+ *   passes 3/3, and its case 2 asserts a token visible WHILE the turn is still
+ *   streaming. Live `text_delta` demonstrably arrives on this lane.
+ *
+ * So streaming works. That makes this spec's failure HARDER to explain, not
+ * easier, and rules out the tidy "one cause, four slices" story:
+ * `subagent_spawned` is published by `web_chat/progress_bridge_subagent_events.rs`
+ * (`on_subagent_spawned` -> `publish_seq_stamped`) — the progress bridge, the
+ * same publisher as the streaming that works. It does NOT share a publisher with
+ * `plan_review_request`, which is bridged separately by `ApprovalSurfaceSubscriber`
+ * off the DomainEvent bus (`web_chat/event_bus.rs:41`, `:594-686`). A
+ * plan-review-shaped explanation therefore does not transfer here, and these
+ * should be filed as two findings with a noted resemblance rather than one.
+ *
+ * ⛔ UPSTREAM BREAKAGE, established by a CONTROL rather than by inference:
+ * **tool calls do not render in the Playwright web lane on this branch.** The
+ * pre-existing `test/playwright/specs/tool-call-presentation.spec.ts` (tracked,
+ * last touched by `cd3806b19`, authored by nobody in this round) fails at
+ * `expect(page.getByTestId('tool-timeline')).toBeVisible()` — and fails AFTER
+ * its canary assertion passes, so the turn completed and the agent replied
+ * while no tool call rendered.
+ *
+ * That control is sound on its own terms: its `beforeEach` boots the page
+ * BEFORE the test body sets `llmForcedResponses`, so the ordered-queue hazard
+ * (boot-time LLM requests eating queue entries) cannot apply to it, and the
+ * canary rendering proves the scripted sequence was consumed by the intended
+ * turn.
+ *
+ * It went unnoticed because that spec DOES run in ci-full's 64-shard sweep, but
+ * the job carries `continue-on-error: true` and is excluded from the gate
+ * (#3615) — a broken tool-render path fails there invisibly. Which is the
+ * regression class a non-blocking lane is built to hide.
+ *
+ * Bisect window for that breakage, since the obvious suspects are innocent:
+ * the control was restored by `cd3806b19` at 06:14 on 2026-09-24 and the
+ * breakage was observed the same evening. Two commits on this branch SOUND like
+ * the cause — `71d8874af` "handle missing toolkit in AUI conversation" and
+ * `d5e81a916` "handle missing toolkit state on initial render" — and are not:
+ * their complete diffs add this very `spawn_parallel_agents` toolkit entry and
+ * its import, nothing else. Auto-generated subjects describing a fix that is not
+ * in the diff. `7e1f5d90a` (18:12, desktop shell + chat chrome) touches
+ * `thread.tsx` but its only tool/part change there is a comment. One entry in
+ * the window was NOT examined at all: `58407ea53`, the 15:51 upstream merge.
+ * That is a gap in the search, not a suspicion about the commit — it is
+ * recorded so the next person knows which stone is unturned, and nothing here
+ * should be read as nominating it.
+ *
+ * This supersedes the by-elimination reasoning that preceded it. `ParallelAgentsCard`
+ * is a toolkit render ON a tool-call part, so if no tool call renders this card
+ * cannot render regardless of whether `spawn_parallel_agents` ran, whether its
+ * workers spawned, or whether `subagent_spawned` was delivered. The spec is
+ * blocked upstream of everything it asserts.
+ *
+ * Deciding between them needs one run that captures the transcript. Copy the
+ * artifact out of the tree before releasing the ci-slot: `e2e-web-session.sh`
+ * wipes `test-results/` at start, its wrapper exits 0 even when tests fail, and
+ * the directory is shared with every other agent's run.
+ *
+ * Two workers because the tool's own schema sets `minItems: 2` on `tasks`
+ * (`spawn_parallel_agents_policy_tests.rs:11`); one task is not a valid call.

+ * assistant-ui tool-result presentation elements, end to end.

+ * Covers three vendored element families that had **zero** e2e coverage before
+ * this file (`git grep -l 'code-diff\|data-table\|artifact-card'` over
+ * `test/playwright/specs` and `test/e2e/specs` returned nothing):
+ *
+ * | Element | Real importer on the product chat path | What makes it appear |
+ * |---|---|---|
+ * | `elements/code-diff.tsx` | `features/conversations/tools/ToolBodies.tsx` `FileBody` | an `edit` tool call carrying `old_string` / `new_string` |
+ * | `elements/data-table.tsx` | `features/conversations/tools/ToolDataView.tsx` | a tool result that is a flat, uniform object array |
+ * | `elements/artifact-card.tsx` | `features/conversations/aui/MediaAndDocumentCalls.tsx` `DocumentArtifactCall` | a `generate_document` / `generate_presentation` call |
+ *
+ * **Not** driven through the dev-only gallery at `/dev/tools`
+ * (`pages/dev/ToolCallGallery.tsx`, "Registered only in dev builds"). That
+ * route imports several of these families and is the easy way to make them
+ * render, but it proves nothing about the product: it mounts the elements with
+ * hand-written props instead of letting a tool result reach them. Every
+ * assertion below goes through a real turn — the mock LLM emits a tool call,
+ * the core runs it, and the chat renders the result.
+ *
+ * Turns go over `openhuman.channel_web_chat` via `helpers/chat-drive.ts`, never
+ * the composer: `ComposerTextBridge` used to take the chat surface to its error
+ * boundary when driven at speed, and a spec about a tool result should not be
+ * able to fail for a composer reason.
+ *
+ * No real backend or third-party calls: the mock LLM is scripted with
+ * `llmKeywordRules`, and the Composio action's payload comes from the mock's own
+ * `composioExecuteResponse_<ACTION>` behaviour knob.
+ *
+ * ## STATUS 2026-09-24: these cases are RED, and not because of what they assert
+ *
+ * Every case here fails at `openToolCall`, before reaching a single element
+ * assertion: the round settles, the agent replies, and no `assistant-ui-tool-call`
+ * card appears. Three independent legs say that is not a claim about this file.
+ *
+ * 1. **A control on a spec this file does not touch.**
+ *    `test/playwright/specs/tool-call-presentation.spec.ts` — restored hours
+ *    earlier in `cd3806b19` — fails at its line 151,
+ *    `expect(page.getByTestId('tool-timeline')).toBeVisible()`, AFTER its canary
+ *    assertion passes. It drives via the COMPOSER (`sendMessage`, lines 108-115:
+ *    `chat-message-input.fill` then `send-message-button.click`), not this file's
+ *    RPC driver, so it exercises the real send path.
+ *
+ * 2. **The `chat-drive.ts` lifecycle bug is NOT the cause.** A peer session found
+ *    that `sendTurn` never dispatched `chatRuntime/beginInferenceTurn`, which a
+ *    real composer send does (`Conversations.tsx:1161`), leaving `isRunning`
+ *    false for RPC-driven turns. That was a genuine harness defect and it is
+ *    fixed (`armTurnLifecycle`). **These four cases were re-run on the fixed
+ *    driver and are still red, with the same message.** Leg 1 was never affected
+ *    by it either, being composer-driven.
+ *
+ * 3. **A second element family, confound removed.** The same peer's `todo` spec
+ *    is still red on the fixed driver with its UPSTREAM stage passing —
+ *    `upstreamBodies()` grew past `before + 1`, so the tool call went out, the
+ *    result came back, and the harness called the model again. Tool round trip
+ *    yes, render no.
+ *
+ * ### Scope: wider than "tool calls do not render"
+ *
+ * That framing is narrower than the evidence. The peer's pinned `todo-checklist`
+ * also failed, and it is not a tool-call part at all — it renders off the
+ * `thread_todos_changed` socket event via `useThreadTodos` (`useThreadTodos.ts:3`;
+ * `TodoListPart.tsx:68` contrasts the two paths explicitly). So **at least two
+ * independent render paths fail: tool-call parts, and a socket-event-driven
+ * pinned surface.** Whether they share a root cause is UNKNOWN and is not
+ * asserted here.
+ *
+ * What CAN be said bounds the search without inventing a cause: the two paths
+ * converge at exactly one place. `ChatRuntimeProvider.tsx` handles both the
+ * tool-call stream (`:806-1050`, `toolCallReceived`) and `thread_todos_changed`
+ * (`:1461`), and they share nothing below it — the tool-call part renders
+ * through the assistant-ui toolkit, the checklist through `useThreadTodos`. So
+ * IF one defect explains both, it is at or above that handler; if it is below,
+ * there are two. That is a constraint on where to look, not a claim about which
+ * is true. (Bound suggested by a peer session, verified here against the
+ * provider source.)
+ *
+ * **These cases are therefore written but UNVERIFIED, and none is revert-proven.**
+ * Proving a fault against an already-red spec establishes nothing, so that was not
+ * attempted. When the lane renders tool calls again, run this file first: if a case
+ * still fails it will fail at its own assertion rather than at `openToolCall`, and
+ * that failure is then about the element.

+/**
+ * `elements/agent-plan.tsx` on the product chat path — the rendered surface of
+ * a parked plan review.
+ *
+ * `chat-plan-review.spec.ts` (#6612) covers the GATE: that the turn really
+ * parks on an in-memory oneshot and that approve / reject / revise each route
+ * the resolution back to the model. It asserts the card exists and says
+ * nothing about what the card shows. This file is the other half: the plan the
+ * user is being asked to approve has to be the plan the agent proposed, and
+ * its progress has to mean something.
+ *
+ * The real importer is `features/conversations/aui/PlanReviewPart.tsx`, which
+ * feeds `AgentPlan` from the live `plan_review_request` payload. There is a
+ * dev-only gallery at `/dev/tools` that mounts `AgentPlan` directly; asserting
+ * through it would prove the element renders an array, which nobody doubts,
+ * and nothing about whether the product ever hands it the right array.
+ *
+ * ## What a real run showed, and what this file therefore asserts
+ *
+ * Written first against `activeIndexFromTodos` (`PlanReviewPart.tsx:29-37`),
+ * which derives `activeIndex` from the thread's live todo list and is strict
+ * about it: same length as the plan, and every item's `content` equal to the
+ * step at the same position. Three cases were written around that.
+ *
+ * **They failed, and the failure is the finding.** Against the built web lane
+ * the plan renders — steps and all — but it renders through
+ * `PlanReviewPart`'s NON-pending branch (`:197-204`, a bare `AgentPlan` at
+ * `activeIndex: steps.length`), not through `PlanReviewCardCore`. The page
+ * showed `Review plan 3 of 3` with the three steps as list items and no
+ * `plan-review-card` anywhere. `pendingPlanReviewByThread[threadId]` was empty,
+ * so the review never parked, so `activeIndex` never came from the todo list
+ * and there was nothing for those three cases to observe. All five cases of
+ * `chat-plan-review.spec.ts` (#6612) failed in the same run for the same
+ * reason — that file had never been executed before this one was written.
+ *
+ * So the todo-progress cases are NOT here. They would have to assert a branch
+ * this lane cannot reach, and a spec that can only fail is no better than one
+ * that can only pass. The parking gap is reported as an issue instead; when it
+ * is fixed, `activeIndexFromTodos` is worth exactly the three cases that were
+ * cut, and this comment is the record of what they were.
+ *
+ * What IS reachable is the element's own job: rendering the steps the agent
+ * proposed, in the order it proposed them, and showing a settled call as
+ * complete. Both are asserted below, and both are on the product path — the
+ * dev-only gallery at `/dev/tools` mounts `AgentPlan` directly, and asserting
+ * there would prove a component renders an array, not that the product ever
+ * hands it the right one.

+/**
+ * The running-status line appears while a turn is in flight and is GONE once
+ * it settles — `elements/agent-status` family, through its real product path.
+ *
+ * Path under test, end to end:
+ *
+ *   `AssistantUiChat.tsx:316`  installs `AgentRunningStatus` as the thread's
+ *                              `RunningStatus` slot component;
+ *   `thread.tsx:844`           `RunningStatusSlot` renders it inside
+ *                              `<AuiIf condition={s => s.thread.isRunning}>`;
+ *   `aui/AgentRunningStatus.tsx:58` with no registered tasks that is a
+ *                              `GenerationLoader` carrying
+ *                              `data-testid="agent-running-status-thinking"`.
+ *
+ * This is deliberately NOT a "the element renders" spec. Every piece above can
+ * pass its own unit test while the composed surface is wrong in the one way
+ * that matters to a user: a status line that never clears. `isRunning` going
+ * stale leaves a permanent "Thinking…" under a finished answer, and nothing
+ * else on the page contradicts it — the answer is there, so the app looks
+ * busy forever with no error to report. A mounted-component test cannot see
+ * that, because it never owns the transition.
+ *
+ * So all three phases are asserted, in order: absent before, present during,
+ * absent after. The before-assertion is what makes the after-assertion mean
+ * something — "still absent" is not evidence of clearing.
+ *
+ * Turns go over `openhuman.channel_web_chat` (`helpers/chat-drive.ts`), never
+ * the composer.
+ *
+ * ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ * If you are about to revert-prove this spec, read this first.
+ *
+ * The obvious fault is to drop the `isRunning` gate on `RunningStatusSlot`
+ * (`thread.tsx:848` → `condition={() => true}`). It does turn both tests red,
+ * so it proves the spec is not vacuous — but it proves the WRONG HALF. With
+ * the gate gone the line renders always, including before a turn, so phase 1
+ * ("absent before") fires first and the run never reaches phase 3, the
+ * clears-once-it-settles assertion this spec exists for. A red at phase 1
+ * tells you nothing about whether phase 3 can see anything at all.
+ *
+ * The fault that proves phase 3 is one that leaves phase 1 green: make
+ * `isRunning` STICKY after completion rather than always-true — e.g. have
+ * `chatRuntimeSlice`'s turn-completion path stop deleting the thread's
+ * `inferenceTurnLifecycleByThread` entry — the `delete` sites are
+ * `chatRuntimeSlice.ts:2477`, `:2480`, `:2508` and `:2647`, and a fault needs
+ * whichever one the completing turn actually takes, so check before assuming.
+ * The line is then correctly absent before, correctly present during, and
+ * wrongly present after, which is exactly the shipped regression described
+ * above.
+ *
+ * As of this writing only the first fault has been run. Phase 3 is asserted
+ * but not fault-proven.
+ * ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+ *
+ * NOT covered here: the `TaskTray` branch of the same component
+ * (`agent-running-status-tasks`, rendered when `s.thread.tasks` is non-empty).
+ * That state is assistant-ui's own, fed only by nested sub-agent transcripts —
+ * `AgentRunningStatus.tsx:13-16` says a plain tool call is not a task by that
+ * definition — so producing it needs a real delegation fixture rather than a
+ * scripted tool call. Written up rather than faked.

+/**
+ * The conversation map rail — assistant-ui's `conversation-map`, on the real
+ * chat path.
+ *
+ * `conversation-map` landed in #6604 with no end-to-end coverage. The unit test
+ * (`features/conversations/aui/ChatConversationMap.test.tsx`) renders it against
+ * a mocked runtime with a fixed four-message fixture, so it proves the element
+ * draws ticks for *that* fixture. Two things it cannot reach: that the rail
+ * groups a real thread into turns rather than counting messages, and that
+ * selecting a tick moves the transcript — `onSelect` scrolls a real viewport and
+ * jsdom has no layout.
+ *
+ * Product path, read rather than assumed:
+ *
+ *   AssistantUiChat                     (features/conversations/components)
+ *     └─ ChatConversationMap            data-testid=chat-conversation-map
+ *          └─ Thread components={{ ConversationMap: ChatConversationMapRail }}
+ *               └─ thread.tsx:426 renders the slot inside the scrolling viewport
+ *                    └─ ConversationMapAui side="right"
+ *                         └─ nav[data-slot="conversation-map"]
+ *                              └─ button[data-slot="conversation-map-tick"] per turn
+ *
+ * Deliberately NOT the dev gallery at `/dev/tools`, which imports the same
+ * element and would prove nothing about the product.
+ *
+ * # Why this seeds thread messages instead of running agent turns
+ *
+ * `conversation-map` is a presentation component over `state.thread.messages`.
+ * Producing those messages by running real turns made the spec depend on turn
+ * lifecycle rather than on the rail, and every settle signal available was
+ * either vacuous or measured the wrong thing. Measured across several runs, not
+ * assumed:
+ *
+ *  - `stop-generation-button` belongs to the composer, and a turn driven over
+ *    `channel_web_chat` need not put the composer into its generating state, so
+ *    `toBeHidden` on it passes instantly.
+ *  - A reply's FIRST streamed chunk renders ~20ms into the stream, so the next
+ *    turn goes out mid-turn. The default `queue_mode` is `interrupt` and the
+ *    superseded turn is discarded: after two turns the store held
+ *    `messages=2[user,agent]` and the rail correctly drew ONE tick.
+ *  - A reply's LAST chunk renders before the turn's terminal event, so the same
+ *    supersede happens in a narrower window.
+ *  - `queue_mode: 'followup'` did not accumulate either.
+ *
+ * `threads_message_append` is the RPC the renderer itself posts
+ * (`services/api/threadApi.ts:85`), and `loadThreadMessages` is the documented
+ * rehydration path, so seeding this way fills the same store the live path
+ * fills — without making a rail test a turn-lifecycle test. No mock LLM is
+ * scripted here because none is needed.

+ * Find-in-conversation — assistant-ui's `conversation-search`, on the real

+ * Product path, read rather than assumed:
+ *
+ *   AssistantUiChat
+ *     └─ ChatConversationMap            data-testid=chat-conversation-map
+ *          ├─ Cmd/Ctrl+F while focus is inside the container
+ *          └─ ConversationSearch        data-testid=chat-conversation-search
+ *
+ * The unit test (`ChatConversationMap.test.tsx`) opens the bar with Ctrl+F and
+ * checks the counter reads `1/2` for a two-message fixture. What it cannot
+ * reach is the cycle this spec covers — a real thread, a hit count that tracks
+ * what was actually said, stepping between matches, and the bar returning to
+ * its empty state when the query is cleared. `buildHits` also reads message
+ * geometry out of the live viewport for each hit's `position`, which jsdom
+ * cannot produce.
+ *
+ * # The needle appears only in prompts, on purpose
+ *
+ * `buildHits` searches every message in `thread.messages`, user and assistant
+ * alike. If the scripted reply could contain the needle the expected count
+ * would depend on the mock's output as well as the prompts, and a wrong count
+ * would be ambiguous between the two. The replies here are fixed text with no
+ * overlap, so the expected hit count is exactly the number of prompts sent.
+ *
+ * # What this does NOT assert, and why
+ *
+ * The brief for this work described search as narrowing the conversation-map
+ * entries and restoring them when cleared. It does not, and the test says so
+ * rather than asserting a behaviour that is not implemented:
+ * `ConversationMapAui` takes only `side` and `className`
+ * (`conversation-map.aui.tsx:126-132`) and reads `state.thread.messages`
+ * directly — the query lives in `ChatConversationMap`'s own state and never
+ * reaches it. What narrows is the hit set the search bar owns. The final
+ * assertion below pins the rail as *unchanged* across the search, so if the
+ * two are ever wired together this spec fails and is updated deliberately
+ * instead of silently continuing to describe the old behaviour.

Subject: [PATCH 10/11] test(aui): name the memory tool on the chips hook

The vendored element carries only data-slot="memory-chips", which every
instance shares, so a spec could not tell a memory_store write from a
memory_recall read in a turn that did both.
