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 "".

@sanderling/spec
TypeScript spec API for sanderling, a property-based UI fuzzer for mobile and web apps.
Spec authors write properties (what the app must always or eventually do), extractors (structured state from the UI), and action generators (what sanderling is allowed to do). The sanderling CLI evaluates the spec in a loop against a running app.
Install
npm install --save-dev @sanderling/spec
Usage
import { extract, always, eventually, actions, weighted, taps, swipes, InputText, Tap } from "@sanderling/spec";
const loggedIn = extract((s) => !!s.ax.find("id:home-tab-bar"));
const balance = extract<number>((s) => (s.snapshots.balance as number) ?? 0);
const emailField = extract((s) => s.ax.find("id:email-field"));
const submitButton = extract((s) => s.ax.find("id:sign-in-button"));
export const properties = {
balanceNeverNegative: always(() => balance.current >= 0),
loginSucceeds: eventually(() => loggedIn.current).within(30, "seconds"),
};
const doLogin = actions(() => {
if (loggedIn.current) return [];
const email = emailField.current;
const submit = submitButton.current;
if (!email || !submit) return [];
return [InputText({ into: email, text: "[email protected]" }), Tap({ on: submit })];
});
export const actionsRoot = weighted(
[50, doLogin],
[10, taps],
[2, swipes],
);
Setup actions
Some action generators are not fuzz targets but preconditions: they drive the
app from a fresh state into the surface you actually want to fuzz (login,
onboarding, permission grants, seed data). Export them as setup instead of
mixing them into actionsRoot. The runner tries setup first; if it yields
no action, it falls through to actionsRoot. State regressing back across the
precondition (e.g. logout under fuzz) automatically re-engages setup.
const login = actions(() => {
if (loggedIn.current) return [];
return [InputText({ into: emailField.current!, text: "[email protected]" }), Tap({ on: submitButton.current! })];
});
export const setup = login;
export const actionsRoot = weighted([60, browse], [40, edit]);
(globalThis as { setup?: unknown }).setup = setup;
Setup is just an ActionGenerator; compose with actions, weighted, or
whenRoute exactly like the main pool.
Works identically across Android, iOS, and web targets.
