Brings in #73, which landed web fact-parity work overlapping this branch:
selector-tagged ax handles, aria-disabled in `enabled`, shadow-DOM traversal
and a `scrollable`/`editable` dump, plus a third folio property and two new
testTags on HomeScreen.
Six files conflicted. The option-carrying ones took the union of both sides'
fields, so `--label-source` and `--exit-on-violation` both reach the pipeline.
In web-runtime.ts both sides changed how an element is described: master gave
`elementHandle` a selector to tag handles with, this branch gave it raw
attribute names and a field hint. Both survive, and `enabled` now answers
through master's isEnabled while `editable` stays.

* refactor(web): use max for the settle budget
* ci: pin calibrated seeds, skip the flaky ios reinstall, bound every job
* ci: authenticate and pin the buf setup step
the anonymous release download hit the shared runner ip rate limit and
failed the job with 'socket hang up' after three retries.
* docs: record that canvas apps need a dom proxy to be text-fuzzable
* fix(ios): bound lifecycle rpcs and claim the target device
a launch the simulator rejects sent the xctest session into a recovery
chain that answered minutes late or never, and the rpc had no deadline,
so the run hung with no trace and no error. also take a per-udid flock:
a second run's reinstall lands under the first's live automation session
and wedges it.
* docs(ci): correct the ios hang wording and note the device lock
* refactor(verifier): derive the lastAction shape from one field list
both hosts must show a spec the same lastAction. one ordered list now
feeds the goja object and the json the web host installs, so they
cannot drift.
* fix(web): install lastAction in the page before extractors read it
state.lastAction was hardcoded null on web, so every property reading it
was silently vacuous: a correct property passed without ever firing.
* fix(web): carry element identity on actions and fix findAll on paths
an action's target was coordinates only, so a property matching on which
element was acted upon could never fire. ax.findAll([a,b]) also returned
nothing on web.
* fix(chrome): wait out a route transition before sampling facts
the tree stays byte-identical and quiet across a cross-fade, so both the
quiet timer and the unchanged-tree escape called it settled mid-flight
and extractors read two screens at once.
* fix: bound the pre-run app launch
launch happens before the runner starts, so --duration never covered it
and a wedged driver hung with no trace and no error.
* fix(folio): read balances from merged cards and treat unreadable as unknown
compose for web merges the whole accountcard subtree, so the balance
child never exists there and every card parsed as 0. the property then
compared 0 to 0 and fired on any submit, which is a false positive
generator. unknown is now null and null is vacuously true.
* test(folio): cover merged-card parsing and unknown balances
* ci(folio): make web an expect-the-bug leg
the web runtime can observe the double submit now, so the health gate
understates it. seed 1 finds it at step 109, 3 runs out of 3.
* docs(ci): explain why a submit tap landing on home is the bug
* fix(ios): read a StaticText's label as its text
AXValue was the only source for text, but a StaticText carries its
string in AXLabel, so nothing on screen had .text on ios: a spec reading
it saw everything on android and nothing here.
* docs(ci): correct the calibrated step ranges
* fix(folio): stop convicting on arithmetic float64 cannot hold
past 2^53 cents the gap between representable values is 128, so a real
1600-cent move reads back as something else and the equality is false
for a healthy submit as readily as a double one. also match parseCents:
a sign or an oversized amount is rejected, not read as an amount.
* test(folio): pin the safe-integer guard and its boundary
* docs: stop teaching the zero-default that caused a false alarm
* docs: write down the silent-vacuity failure modes
* feat(folio): tag the home total and the card transaction count
the total was the only untagged node on the screen, so the spec had to
sum cards and a clipped card broke the sum.
* fix(folio): read the app's own total and refuse contaminated windows
summing cards went null when one was clipped, and the null poisoned the
carrier for the rest of the run. the balance window also spanned every
transaction since the last home visit, so the property convicted on
deltas it could not attribute: the old web witness was 3.16x the typed
amount, not 2x.
* test(folio): pin the window rules and the count invariant
* fix(folio): never read a frame that shows two screens
android dumps a cross-fade with both screens in the tree. the route said
add-transaction while an unscoped find said home, so the oracle took a
half-rendered total as fresh and convicted on a tap that committed
nothing. one function now decides the route and returns null when the
frame is ambiguous.
* test(folio): cover transition frames, card readings and creation
* fix(folio): only disambiguate counts that came from merged text
the equal-length digit rule exists because web merges the card and an
account named -1 makes '12' ambiguous. a dedicated count node has
nothing to disambiguate, so applying it there threw away real evidence.
* ci(folio): pin the recalibrated seeds and drop android to a health gate
web 3 and ios 7 convict 3 runs out of 3 with an exactly 2x witness.
android convicts 2 in 5 because the same seed does not walk the same
trajectory there, so it proves the app runs instead.
* docs(ci): describe the two properties and why android cannot convict
* fix(android): wait out a route cross-fade before snapshotting
the dump could hold two screens at once, and the runner refuses to act
on such a tree, so a quarter of android steps applied no action and the
count varied per run: the same seed never walked the same trajectory.
the ios companion and the chrome driver already do this.
* ci(folio): let the android leg run far enough to see its conviction
* docs: only the repo owner merges
* ci(folio): a thrown predicate is not a conviction
exit 2 means the run recorded a violation, and a predicate that throws
is recorded as one too. so was newAccountBalanceIsZero, an unrelated
property in the same spec. the gate read the exit code and went green
with detection dead.
* ci: install idb-companion from its tap and stop interpolating inputs
idb-companion is not in homebrew-core, so the ios leg died before it
built anything. replay-ui expanded dispatch inputs into the shell.
* docs: correct the snippets and numbers that drifted from the code
* test(sidecar): pin that a slow read counts toward the stability streak
* fix(web): read the page's extractors only on steps that count
the page advances the spec's carriers when it evaluates, but the runner
applied the result only on non-transitional steps. a discarded step
moved the window forward anyway, so the next accepted pair bracketed two
transactions while counting one submit, and convicted a healthy app.
extractor errors now fail the run instead of leaving goja's values in
current against v8's in previous.
* fix(chrome): anchor the transition deadline when the dom goes quiet
it was anchored at script start, so a page that churned past the window
reached the check already expired and returned mid cross-fade. the
driver now publishes the idle timeout it needs, since the caller's 1s
could never spend the 800ms window.
* fix(web): fail on a partial extractor override
same mixed-producer hazard as the install error: some extractors hold
the page's value and the rest hold goja's, and a property comparing
across that split fires on a healthy app.
* docs: six of seven, the seventh is the stock property
* fix(folio): drop a name two cards answer to
homeTxnCountsOf keyed on the account name and let the last card win, so
two accounts the fuzzer named the same collapsed into one entry. a
reading that saw one Travel card and a later one that saw both then
subtracted two different accounts' counts, and
submitCommitsOneTransactionPerAction convicted a healthy app of
double-submitting. it is a gated property in folio-run.sh, so that reads
as "found the submit bug" over a card scrolling into view.
same rule createdAccountHasNonZeroBalance already applies: a name
nothing can attribute is no evidence. counted over every card, since an
unreadable twin spoils the identity too.
* perf(folio): read each frame once
every extractor asked routeOf, and routeOf does five ax.find calls. on
web each find walks the document and every shadow root beneath it, so
the spec cost 110 tree walks a step; homeCards was parsed four times
over. now 5 and once.
keyed on the identity of the state object because both hosts build a new
one per step and hand that one object to every getter, so it cannot
outlive its frame. holding the reference is what keeps that true rather
than likely.
* fix(web): keep an undefined reading's index through JSON
json has no undefined, so an extractor whose getter returned one had its
whole index dropped by JSON.stringify. that index then kept goja's
dump-derived value while its neighbours held the page's, and a property
comparing previous to current across the split fires on a healthy app.
folio has nine on(route, tag) extractors, so this was most extractors on
most steps.
each reading is wrapped in a {value} envelope: the drop now happens
inside the entry, and an absent value means the getter returned
undefined, which is what the goja host records for the same getter. a
json null would instead claim it returned null and x.current ===
undefined would answer differently on the two hosts.
* feat(verifier): report the registered extractor count
the web path needs it to check the page sent one reading per extractor.
* fix(runner): fail when the page reports fewer readings than extractors
the comment here already claimed a partial override was fatal. it was
not: the skipped check only catches indices outside the extractor list,
so a page reporting values for some extractors and not others left the
rest holding goja's reading of the dump with nothing said.
* test(browser): drive an undefined reading through the whole web path
four layers carry it: the page's envelope, the driver's unwrap, the
runner's count check and the verifier's decode. each has a unit test and
only a run proves they compose. goes red both ways, decoding an absent
value as null and dropping the envelope.
* fix(web): offer the aria roles a user activates
only role=button was in the tappable set, so link, checkbox, radio,
switch, tab, option, the menuitems and treeitem were invisible to the
enumeration however plain the control looked. the replay ui builds its
step rows as <li role="option">, and the spec dogfooding it had to
hand-write an action to reach them because no default verb could see a
single row.
both producers build the set from the same role list, since the parity
test compares them element by element.
* test(browser): tap a role-based control end to end
every control on the page is an <li role="option">, the shape the
replay ui gives its step rows, and the spec carries no action of its
own: the property firing is the evidence the default enumeration offered
a tap on one.
* fix(web): read aria-disabled as disabled
the enabled fact came off the disabled property, which only real form
controls have. it reads undefined on the role-based controls the
tappable set now covers, so every one of them looked enabled however
plainly it was marked otherwise, and the fuzzer would spend actions on
inert ones.
both producers answer the same two ways, and the parity fixture carries
a disabled row so the comparison covers it: reverting one side alone
names the element and the fact.
* docs(replay-ui): the enumeration reaches step rows now
the comment said role="option" is not in the tappable selector set,
which stopped being true a few commits ago. selectAStep stays, for the
reason the tab weight below it stays: one row among the page's clickable
elements is a thin chance, and both step-facing properties go vacuous on
a run that never selects one.
* test(runner): bound the last-action test by steps, not wall clock
100ms of wall clock against an assertion that two steps ran fatals under
load with "the web path never installed it", which reads as a
regression. every sibling test in the package uses a long duration and
MaxSteps.
* ci: run the kotlin tests in make test
RouteTransitionTest and the stability poll cover the android settle and
nothing in ci ran them. :sidecar:test needs no android sdk, checked by
running it with ANDROID_HOME pointed at nothing.
* fix(sidecar): measure the stability streak as observed quiet
parameterising pollUntilStable also moved the clock to the start of the
read that opened a run of identical snapshots, so a read's own duration
counted as quiet. the pre-existing caller polls a real uiautomator dump:
at 400ms a read, 750ms of required quiet became 250ms of observed quiet
and the poll settled in two reads instead of four.
the parameters stay, the semantics go back.
* test(sidecar): pin the transition cap by driving it
it asserted 1500 >= 700 + 300, two constants, which can only fail if
someone edits a constant. it now drives awaitSettledTree against a fade
that lands after 700ms and asserts it hands back the settled tree before
the cap. cut the cap to 1000 and it goes red.
* ci: pin buf-setup-action to a commit
it takes a token now, so a floating tag is a token handed to whatever
that tag moves to. note v1 there is a branch, not a tag, so the ref
lookup that resolves it is matching-refs/heads/v1.
* ci: declare least-privilege permissions
none of the three declared any, so each got the repository default.
release.yml and docs.yml already do this. all three only check out,
build, test and upload artifacts.
* ci: fail fast when a server never comes up
the readiness loops fell through silently after 30 tries, so a server
that never started surfaced as an opaque driver failure minutes later.
each now says what did not answer and on which port.
* ci(folio): a missing trace is not a verdict
with no trace the android gate ran its grep against ./trace.jsonl and
reported "never reached AddTransactionScreen, so it never got past
login", which is not what happened. the web and ios branches had the
same misdiagnosis on exit 0.
same class, one line up: the classifier's own failure was swallowed, so
with the evidence reader dead the gate printed a healthy run and exited
0.
* ci(replay-ui): skip a run directory with no trace
the summarise step is if: always(), and under github's bash -eo pipefail
an unmatched glob stays literal, the redirect fails, pipefail carries it
into the assignment and -e kills the step. so a failed fuzz run went red
twice, once for the real reason.
At one model call per step the model arm takes 359 seconds where the seeded arm
takes 47, so a second-based deadline reported violations that were the arm's
speed rather than the application's behaviour. The three cross-arm reachability
properties now bound by steps, derived at the measured 6.383 steps per second.
The two auth-transition properties keep seconds: a user waits through those
regardless of which policy is driving.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Same 300-observation trace at two cadences: a 300 second bound holds for the
seeded arm and violates for the model arm eight observations before the
predicate fires, while a step bound holds for both. Green before and after,
because the step unit already worked; this pins the property rather than
fixing it.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
reduce decremented StepBound into the residual, so the trace reported the
remaining window rather than the authored one: a within(1915, "steps") showed
up as 1875 after 40 steps, and the replay UI renders that string verbatim. The
duration case was fixed when bounded windows were made to serialize their
resolved deadline; the step case was not, and withinFor's comment claimed
otherwise.
The window is now immutable and the closing observation is resolved once, which
mirrors Deadline exactly. A step counts observations the evaluator reduced,
not steps the runner executed, because a skipped step gave the property no
chance to discharge and transitional-step rate is itself policy-dependent.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
The reaping test gave the wedged script one second to install its TERM trap,
so a loaded machine signalled it first and the test failed for a reason it does
not test. It now waits for the script to say the trap exists, then cancels.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
A host asleep mid-run tested nothing, and charging that sleep to an arm reports
it slower for a reason unrelated to the arm. The legend also claimed wall clock
while the number was monotonic. Campaigns written before the split are still
read through the old field name so their run hours do not silently zero.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Duration came from the monotonic clock, which does not advance while a host
sleeps: one calibration run under-reported by about 15 minutes. A run now
carries monotonic_millis for how long it worked and wall_clock_millis for how
much time passed, which is what makes a sleep visible at all.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Measured over 717 InputText steps: nothing was focused before the tap 23.8
percent of the time, the target already held focus 60.4 percent, and a
different element held it 15.8 percent. Silent corruption is only reachable
from that third class, and all four real rejections observed came from it.
Gating there keeps every rejection, skips 84.2 percent of the extra hierarchy
reads, and recovers about 8 percent of Android run time. The pre-tap and
post-tap conditions are now the same predicate stated once.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
CommandContext kills outright, so a run stopped by --run-timeout never ran its
own shutdown and left a sidecar holding a port and a quarter gigabyte,
reparented to init and deaf to SIGTERM. The timeout exists for unattended
hosts, which is exactly where nobody is watching to reap what it leaves.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
InputText tapped its target, slept, then typed. Android and web both inject
into whatever holds focus, so a tap that missed sent the whole string somewhere
else and nothing reported it. On an emulator with a floating keyboard panel
parked over the password field, the tap pressed the keyboard's emoji key and
every step appended the password to the email instead, forever, because the
setup leaf is guarded on the password being empty.
The hierarchy is re-read after the tap and the target, or something in its
subtree, must hold focus. Platforms whose hierarchy carries no focused
attribute skip the read, so they pay nothing.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
The handle fallback read only text, which is textContent and therefore always
empty for an input, so the model could not tell the amount field from the note
field. It now mirrors visibleLabel's ladder rather than introducing a second
naming scheme.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
attrs was spread from element.dataset, whose DOMStringMap keys are camelCase,
so a spec reading attrs["data-cents"] the way every native host reports it read
undefined. In folio-web that left ledgerTxnCount and ledgerBalance permanently
zero: someTransactionExists could never be satisfied, balanceMatchesTransaction
Delta could never fire, and totalBalanceMatchesAccounts compared 0 to 0 and
passed vacuously. Three properties reported nothing because the harness was
blind, not because the application was correct.
The handle also fills hintText and editable now, so an authored InputText on
web names its field the way the same action names it on Android instead of
rendering as Type "12.34" into "".
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
The two edge-case typing leaves become the typing builtin at their combined
weight: that text is deliberately not domain-specific, so naming the field and
leaving the text to the policy is the designed path, and it keeps the seeded
arm on the corpus while the model writes its own.
Total weight is unchanged at 165, so every surviving branch keeps its share and
submitTxn stays at 9.70 percent.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Sampling inside an authored leaf is refused under the model policy now, because
the draw collapses to its first item there. Each sampled leaf offers one action
per value instead.
Lists are short, three rather than five, because the two form leaves also carry
their submit and the seeded picker splits a leaf's probability across the
actions it returns. The doubleTaps path that reaches the planted defect is
unchanged at 5.88 percent, since no root or defaults weight moved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Setup runs through the picker with the rng under both policies, so a generator
there is legitimate and must keep working. Interleaving enumeration and setup
catches the flag leaking out of the model's walk.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
integers, strings, emails and edgeCaseText read the same rng from() does, so
under the model policy an authored InputText typed the same value on every
step while the seeded arm varied it. That is a silently different experiment,
not just a silently different action space.
Single-valued spans are exempt, because both policies then get the same value:
between(7,7), a zero-length string, and a one-entry corpus. length(4,4) is
still refused, since the length is pinned but each character is drawn from 62.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Candidates returns an error now. The refusal is thrown at the draw and wrapped
with the source of the leaf that made it, since generate() cannot know which
leaf it is inside. Only that marked refusal is fatal: this walk calls every
leaf on every step, so promoting the rest would kill model runs the seeded arm
survives.
Authored actions on a disabled target are no longer dropped from the model's
candidate list. The seeded picker executes whatever the leaf authored, and a
control the application forgot to re-enable is exactly where boundary defects
live, so a policy that cannot attempt it cannot find them.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
from().generate() draws from the picker's rng, which exists only inside
walkActions. The model policy enumerates authored leaves outside that walk, so
the sampler silently yielded its first item on every step: measured over 30
draws the seeded arm reached three targets in roughly equal proportion and the
model was offered only the first. The two policies had different action spaces
and nothing said so.
A single-item sampler short-circuits before the rng, so both policies get the
same value and it is not refused.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
The native desc rule accepts the label or the label at the head of an iOS
merged label; both web translators compared the whole string, so the same
selector matched natively and missed on web. The live-page parity test
caught it.
Same rule and the same message as the native side: a key no element can
carry throws instead of matching nothing. The accepted list is one list,
committed as a fixture both suites assert, so a spec cannot be accepted
by one runtime and rejected by the other.
An empty match is indistinguishable from a screen with no such element,
so a mistyped key generates no action for the whole run and the campaign
finishes clean having explored nothing. The goja boundary now throws,
naming the key and the accepted list.
The object form fell through to the raw attribute map, which carries no
id or desc key on any platform, so {id: "save"} matched nothing while
"id:save" matched. The repo's own web spec uses the object form thirty
times. Both forms now resolve through one switch.
Adds the accepted-key list and UnknownSelectorKeys with it, since the
same silence hides any mistyped key. A key some element carries is always
accepted, so raw driver attributes stay reachable.
Selector matching is written once per runtime: internal/hierarchy over the
dump, web-runtime.ts over the DOM. Nothing made the two agree, and a
selector that resolves on one and not the other is silent, since an empty
match yields no action and the run still passes.
Binding it at module scope bound it to whenever the module was first
imported, so a test file that imported the runtime before setting
SANDERLING_SEED froze the seed at zero for every file after it. The
bundler still replaces the expression with a literal.
The DOM has no package prefix, so the native rule reduces to [id^=]. Both
prefix kinds now go through the one key table, which drops the separate
descPrefix branch that string and object selectors each carried.
idPrefix: is id: with starts-with in place of equality, so a list whose
rows are named <role>_<record id> is reachable by the durable half. The
Android package prefix is skipped the same way id: skips it.
Routing both prefix kinds through matchAttr also makes the object form
work: {descPrefix: ...} matched nothing on the native side while the web
runtime honoured it.
Compares the recorded driver calls across 13 authored shapes. The builtin path
had a parity guard and the authored path had none, which is why it drifted on
almost every verb.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
serializeAction sent the container's own point as both endpoints, so an
authored Scroll({in, direction}) reached the driver as a drag from a point to
itself and did nothing, on the seeded arm. The wire now carries the selector
and leaves the drag to the runner, which sizes it from the container's bounds
and has always had tested support for it that nothing could produce.
No rng runs in the serializer, which lowers an already-drawn action, so the
draw stream does not move. Builtin scrolls compute both endpoints and their
bytes are unchanged.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
The authored descriptor path had no parity guard and diverged from the wire
format on almost every verb. A Wait lost its duration and was skipped as a
zero-duration wait. A Scroll lost its endpoints and its 250ms. A target that
resolved to nothing became a tap at the origin, a phantom focus tap, or a swipe
to (0,0) instead of being dropped.
An authored target object with no x property panicked the whole run at
candidate enumeration: ToInteger was called on a nil goja.Value. A target on
the screen origin is still kept, so the drop rule cannot swallow it.
Builtins were never affected. They serialize through the same path the seeded
arm uses, which the existing policy parity test covers.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Defects per thousand actions counted every step, including steps that chose
nothing and steps whose action was never dispatched. The inflation is
policy-dependent, so it does not cancel between arms: on the fixture campaign
the model arm's yield was reported at 60.3 per thousand against a true 120.7,
because half its steps did nothing.
A runs.jsonl without the count is refused by name and line rather than read as
zero actions, which would report every per-action rate wrongly. The report also
carries steps beside actions now, so the gap is visible rather than folded into
a denominator.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
A step where the policy declined has no action, and a step whose action was
never dispatched did nothing. Both were being counted as actions by everything
downstream.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
Descriptions can now repeat after candidates dedup by what they execute. The
guard is index-anchored, so this pins that a repeated string cannot make it
misfire in either direction.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
applyAction could return nil without calling the driver, so the trace showed an
action that looked executed and acted on nothing. Six paths did it: a tap,
double-tap or long-press whose coordinates do not resolve and which carries no
selector, a long-press whose selector is stale, an empty key press, and a
zero-duration wait. It now reports whether it dispatched, and the runner records
the reason and clears lastAction so the verifier never attributes the next state
to an action that did not run.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01A5KmftdEJ49A9z5mF5ESrX
The dedup key was the rendered description, which embeds the label, so two
distinct controls sharing a visible label collapsed to one entry and the
survivor carried the first one's action. The second control was not mislabelled,
it was absent from the candidate list, so no policy could reach it. Two
scrollable containers collapsed the same way, leaving the second unscrollable.
The key is now the executable Action struct itself plus whether the model
supplies the typed text, so a new Action field cannot silently fall out of it.
Descriptions may now repeat; the numbering disambiguates and the echo guard is
