Edward Langley 9eb83538fe A message beside its open editor stands in the browser too (improvise-1x9h)
The toast hid every status after six seconds, so a refusal the user was
still fixing vanished with its prompt open: su4u's bug on a timer. The
browser now asks the TUI's question. EditorSession moves into
improvise-protocol, ClientState records which editor a status was
written in, and RenderModel::status_stands tells the toast to hold it
until that editor closes.

Edward Langley c960713f8c The worker's status claims success only on its first frame (improvise-i0v9)
The worker transport wrote "in-page worker · <doc>" when it spawned the
worker, before anything had answered, so a tab whose worker could not start
showed a success-looking status over a blank page. It now writes "starting
the worker · <doc>…", and createShell's arm() takes an `answer` that sawFrame
writes on the first frame, but only while the watchdog is still armed. A
ReadOnly or SeedMissing notice lands BEFORE the Snapshot, and fail() has
already disarmed, so the claim cannot overwrite the precise reason.

The two-tab spec now logs every #status and denies both the premature claim
and "did not answer" before the page clock is walked. A new spec pins the
exact status sequence on the writable path. Reasoning:
context/code/clients.md, "The watchdog".

Edward Langley d750b433b8 fix: the app bar is reserved, not fitted, and a message is a toast (improvise-n6t8)
The rule is the deliverable: nothing a user expects to be fixed may move.

Four children of <header> were sized by their own content and all four
changed on the SAME event, so the bar reflowed on a mode change with no
message at all: #mode (mode_label, 4-14 chars), #hint (hint_line, one
line per mode), #doc-name (gains and loses " [+]") and #view-name, which
had :empty { display: none } and so appeared out of nothing.

Every child that changes with a keystroke now has an allocated width, and
#hint is the single elastic child, so nothing is positioned by it. The
mode pill's reserve is a FLOOR and deliberately not a cap: a cap absorbs
an over-long label inside a box that never grows, which is a reserve that
hides its own failure. AppMode's exhaustive-match methods make the
compiler demand mode_label for a new variant; nothing checked the CSS
still fit it. harness/tests/header.spec.js is that check.

The spec found what the ticket did not predict: the compounding one was
not the pill. #status was flex: 0 1 auto beside a flex: 1 1 auto hint, so
a longer hint took the shrink out of #status, which WRAPPED to two and
three lines and grew the header by a row -- 52.5px to 71.0px. Reserving
the pill alone would have left that untouched.

ViewState::status_msg is now a toast in a position: fixed dock anchored at
its bottom, so it takes part in no layout and stacks ABOVE the minibuffer:
the prompt is neither covered nor displaced. composeStatus is gone -- the
two facts go to two elements, so a repaint reaches onModel and cannot
address onShell at all. That is gotcha 46's rule made structural rather
than kept by a join's convention; its unit test was replaced, not deleted.

Dismissal keys off message IDENTITY, not a timer. status_msg is STATE and
repaint() re-offers it on every revision, so a setTimeout alone resurrects
the toast on the next keypress. Cost stated rather than hidden: two
identical messages in a row show once, because nothing carries a sequence
and the alternative reading of an ambiguous offer is exactly the bug.

Nine of seventeen modes are reachable in a browser and the spec names them
individually; three injected faults are recorded in the evidence file.

Edward Langley 8ad5c0806d feat(web): dismissable notice, a raised minibuffer, and a styled shell
Three things the user reported after looking at the deployed page, in the
order they cost a visitor something.

The deployment notice was ten dense lines of configuration reference —
?doc=, ?seed=, ?ws=, wss:// and reverse proxies — above the tile bar, the
category tree and the grid on every visit: about 230px of an 820px window.
It is now a <details>, so the collapsing is the BROWSER's (keyboard
operable, and correct with app.js absent or still loading) and the only
thing the page adds is remembering the answer. It starts COLLAPSED, and
collapsing withholds nothing: the one fact a first visitor needs — the
document lives in this tab, is saved to this browser's private storage and
never leaves the machine — is the <summary>, which never collapses.

What a stored value means is a decision and lives in shell.js; touching
localStorage is a browser API and stays in app.js, wrapped, with every
value that is not one of the two spellings read as "unanswered".

The minibuffer was a 14px line in the page's bottom-left corner, up to
800px from the cell being typed into. It is now a raised bar over the
grid. The CONTENT is untouched — RenderMinibuffer is built from
`state.view.mode.minibuffer()`, the same semantic value the TUI draws — so
this is position, weight and contrast, and there is no second derivation of
what a prompt says. MinibufColor still resolves here exactly as
draw.rs::minibuf_fg resolves it for the terminal.

style.css stops being "legibility only": layered surfaces, one accent, a
filled badge for the mode, chips for the two axis strips, one selection
treatment, tabular numerals in the grid, and a focus ring on the one
keyboard surface the page has. The palette is the landing page's, so the
two read as one product.

Asserted (harness/tests/contract.spec.js, Chromium): the notice starts
collapsed and remembers, in BOTH directions across a reload; it opens from
the keyboard, which the page's own keydown handler must not claim; the
minibuffer is inside the viewport, OVERLAPS #grid — the assertion a static
bottom bar cannot satisfy — and is larger than body text. Each was proved
discriminating by injecting the fault and watching it fail.

NOT asserted, and named as such in context/code/clients.md: colour,
contrast, spacing, weight, the grouped and multi-level header DOM, either
theme, and the localStorage-throws path. Those are argued and read.

Edward Langley a93d668e5e feat(browser): paint the page bar and the totals strip, and delegate the pointer
improvise-p7lh: `GridCache::page_coords` and `GridCache::totals` were projected
to every session and folded correctly by every client, and NO front end read
either. The shipped front page — `web/demo.improv` is `Quarter: page, Q1` —
drew a grid filtered to Q1 with nothing saying so, and `[`/`]` resolve locally
off that same `page_coords`, so a user could page through quarters watching
every number change with no way to tell which one they were looking at.

`RenderModel` gains `page_coords` and `totals`, fed straight off `state.grid`.
The Page/Filter split is asked of `PageAxis::cycle` rather than re-derived from
`items.is_some()`, which disagrees with it on an empty item list (gotcha 27).
The totals are RELAYED, never summed in the client: the sum runs over every row
including ones a viewport scrolled past (gotcha 44).

`web/tests/render_surface.test.js` gains the direction that would have caught
this when improvise-n10 added the fields. The existing guard is closed under
what `RenderModel` chose to expose, so a cache field that never reaches it is
invisible to it; the new one asks that every `pub` field of every widget cache
is read somewhere the browser runs, or is named as debt with a reason.
`grid.col_widths` is the one entry, pointing at improvise-pcje.

improvise-b8ot: the five clickable surfaces moved from one listener per node,
reallocated inside the render loops on every repaint, to one handler per stable
delegation root — the user's ruling. The operands are carried on the node as
data attributes and read back by a pure `cellAction`/`indexAction` in
`web/shell.js`, so the handler is a LOOKUP rather than a second derivation of
which data row was clicked: `gridPlan` counts data rows because a group header
is not one, and walking the table back up would disagree the moment one appears.
The editor's own keydown/blur stay direct — one transient node, one at a time,
and `blur` does not bubble.

All four documented behaviours a naive delegation loses are preserved and each
is now asserted in `harness/tests/contract.spec.js`: mousedown rather than click
(asserted by dispatching mousedown ALONE), `preventDefault` and only over a cell,
the conditionally skipped repaint (asserted by the editor's survival), and
closing a live editor before composing the click.

Gates: 1598 passed / 0 failed / 7 ignored over 37 binaries (baseline 1595);
node --test 47 over 6 files (baseline 36 over 5); Playwright 47 passed /
4 skipped (baseline 43 / 4); clippy, fmt and --check-evidence clean.

Edward Langley 12714c7527 feat(browser): a boot failure is a state with a reason, not silence
improvise-1wft and the five beads it blocked were one failure: nothing
carried a boot failure's REASON from the worker to the page. The channel
is one rule -- a protocol frame crosses the port as a STRING, a shell
notice as an OBJECT -- so it needs no protocol change and the
discriminator is total.

A boot failure is a STATE, not a rejected promise. A document another
context holds the exclusive handle to now OPENS read-only: measured first
(harness probe, Chromium + Firefox), getFile() reads the bytes while the
handle is held, with the second-handle refusal asserted so the probe
cannot pass vacuously.

- improvise-1wft  the channel: Notice/NoticeKind, boot_notice, take_notice
- improvise-i0v9  read-only boot over vfs::ReadOnly + OpfsFs::read_unattached
- improvise-86nw  start() rejecting for any reason now posts BootFailed
- improvise-9cma  boot::document_name -- and a/b/c.improv was ACCEPTED as
                  c.improv, not rejected, which is worse than the report
- improvise-iobc  vfs::Origin: a seed error is a notice only when the
                  document really had to be created without it
- improvise-vep8  the watchdog arms BEFORE transport.ready; its message
                  stopped claiming the connection was accepted
- improvise-7gip  DedicatedWorkerGlobalScope (needs a web-sys feature)
- improvise-zre1  a persist that fails raises a notice; the trigger is the
                  dirty flag surviving, observed rather than predicted
- improvise-7gf8  the render breaker trips once instead of retrying forever
- improvise-ociy  non-OPEN sends are loud; a viewport announcement is not
- improvise-y01k  the three ws-server drops are logged
- improvise-r4nf  serde failures throw instead of reading as "nothing to send"

Every notice routes through shell.fail, so gotcha 48's disarm half is not
re-broken. Two comments in shell.spec.js stated the opposite of the new
arming order and were corrected rather than left.

Edward Langley 628f43121d feat(web): the title bar is painted, a click survives an editor, and the twin door is gone
improvise-5jna, improvise-0x9u, improvise-seik — three browser-page defects with
one shape: a thing that looks done from every check except running it.

improvise-5jna. `doc_name`/`doc_dirty`/`doc_stored_as` were projected by z754 and
painted by nothing. `render_surface.test.js` could not see it — it is a SUBSTRING
SEARCH over the page's source, so a field named by a function nothing calls reads
as painted, which is also how `model.minibuffer` shipped dead. So the guard is a
harness assertion that loads the page and reads `#doc-name`, proved by writing it
first (`element(s) not found`). The joining is `shell.js::documentTitle`, the
TUI's own `name (stored_as) [+]` minus the chrome; the `[+]` is a node test, not a
harness one, because this deployment persists on every accepted batch and clears
the flag in the same round trip, so the marker is transient. UNPAINTED is now
empty.

improvise-0x9u. From an EDITING state a cell click did nothing at all: the
mousedown moved focus, the input's blur ran `close`, `close` repainted,
`replaceChildren` destroyed the `<td>` the mousedown landed on, and no `click`
was ever dispatched. The old spec pressed Escape between the two clicks, so it
only ever clicked from a non-editing page — this repo's characteristic defect.

Worth recording: moving to `mousedown` is NECESSARY AND NOT SUFFICIENT, and the
first attempt failed the same assertion with the same symptom. Removing a focused
`<input>` fires `blur` SYNCHRONOUSLY, so `close` rebuilt the table from inside
itself and detached the `<td>` again. `close` therefore no longer repaints, the
`blur` arm checks `closed` first, and the handler `preventDefault()`s so no focus
change happens at all — otherwise the default action focuses `#grid` after
`input.focus()` and blurs the new editor. `close` restores the DRAWN text, since
nothing repaints behind it any more.

improvise-seik. `Client::viewport` was a wasm-bindgen door with no caller, kept
for a reason `web/app.js` falsified in the same wave. It is one letter from
`set_viewport` and fails SILENTLY — identical frame, forgotten window, every
cursor key an upstream black hole. Deleted, along with the exported `init()` free
function that duplicated `new Client()`. The guard is not the deletion:
`wasm_surface.test.js` now reads the generated `.d.ts` and requires every
declared method to be one `app.js` calls or to be named in `UNCALLED` with its
reason. Proved by injecting a spare `static viewport(...)` into the built `.d.ts`
and watching it fail by name.

Tests: 1405 Rust (unchanged), 27 node + 4 bundle (was 26 + 3), 24 chromium
harness (was 23).

Edward Langley 36ade35240 test(web): a Node suite between the boundaries, Playwright only on them
E2E and integration tests are rare and pin boundary contracts; unit tests
assume those contracts and test between them (user, 2026-09-20). The browser
half has four boundaries — RenderModel→DOM, JS→wasm, page→peer, worker→OPFS —
and everything between them needed no browser at all.

`web/shell.js` and `web/serial.js` are the seams: pure modules that RETURN A
DESCRIPTION rather than take a DOM double. `gridPlan(model)` answers every
question `gridTable` used to answer while creating elements — the data-row
index across group headers, what a group header spans, a null group label
against an empty one, an empty edit buffer against no editor — and `app.js` is
now a loop that builds elements from it. Painting stays untested by Node; what
to paint stopped being untestable.

26 tests in `node --test web/tests` (0.12s, no Rust toolchain, no wasm bundle,
no npm install), plus three in `web/tests/bundle/` that read the generated
.d.ts and so run in the browser job. Playwright goes from 29 tests/36.9s to
16/15.5s on one machine: `widgets.spec.js` and `pointer.spec.js` are gone,
replaced by `contract.spec.js`, which asserts that EVERY field the render model
projects reaches the screen. The four widgets those specs were written for were
one failure at one boundary, and one assertion catches the fifth.

It caught it: `doc_name`/`doc_dirty`/`doc_stored_as` reach no element
(improvise-5jna, already open). They are named in `UNPAINTED` with the ticket,
so the list is the debt written down rather than an exemption.

Thirteen faults injected into the Node suite and eight into the served page,
each watched to fail the test it names; the last of those was strengthened
because the first version passed. `web/assemble.sh` grew an import-completeness
guard whose own first version was blind to the multi-line import it exists for.
