Resolves #19186

A committed cross-popup conversion now says what its dispose did. The engine transaction's dispose effect (NativeVesselTransaction.effectsFor().disposeVessel) publishes a dispose receipt before the first retire call and amends it in place — attempts, admitted, the refusal class (no-vessel · identity-mismatch · host-close-refused · vessel-replaced) and whether the vessel's window was still alive when the close was refused — through the same publishReceipt(key, receipt) seam the park and restore receipts ride; the Workstation and Demo B map the third key to lastVesselDisposeReceipt. A close the host refused while the window still exists is retried exactly once after a macrotask, and the retry is bound to the lineage the first call addressed: every retire call carries the registry's generation token, TearOut.retireActiveVessel refuses a superseded token, and the effect re-reads the registry after the macrotask — an entry gone ends as no-vessel, a different window or token as vessel-replaced, never a close (round 1). A window already gone, a missing entry or a mismatched name is never retried, so the park machine's one-call contract and the "never close twice" rule both hold. WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer-path commit arms read the receipt over the Neural Link beside the closure they already asserted (the native title-bar arms keep their closure assertion on lastTearOutClose) — the same read the operator's hand run makes.

Evidence: L1 (the transaction's eight dispose arms + the TearOut lineage arm, the park machine, the Workstation and Demo B unit tiers) → L2 achieved headless (WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer-path commit arms read admitted: true, one attempt, over the Neural Link; the native title-bar arms assert closure separately) → L3 required for AC-2's hand clause and AC-4's regression question (the operator's display). Residual: AC-2 (the hand read) and AC-4 (regressed or pre-existing), Residual-Owner: #19101 (my open Dock Layouts + Workstation survey; the post-merge item is recorded there).

agent-preflight: not hosted here; baseline pr-body + substrate-size run in CI. ticket-intake: self-authored in an earlier session — drift probe over the ticket's named paths since the re-scope: empty intersection; prescription checked: src/dashboard/dock/window/NativeVesselTransaction.mjs — owns the concern (the dispose effect already resolves the host's registry entry, calls the host's retire seam and publishes the park / restore receipts; VesselPark keeps its exactly-once terminal, the hosts map one key).

AC Evidence

| AC-1 | CI-covered: test/playwright/unit/dashboard/DockNativeVesselTransaction.spec.mjs — "the dispose effect: a receipt the host maps, and one bounded retry": first-call success reads one attempt with the receipt published before the retire runs; a refused close with the window alive is retried exactly once and the second attempt admits (attempts: 2, admitted: true); a refusal with the window gone is never retried; a second refusal ends it; no entry / mismatched name refuse once with their class; every call carries the first call's generation token; a vessel retired externally between the attempts ends as no-vessel with one call; a successor admitted under the same name between the attempts ends as vessel-replaced with one call. DockTearOut.spec.mjs: a close presenting a superseded lineage token closes nothing, the exact one closes. DockVesselPark.spec.mjs unchanged and green (one disposeVessel call per committed terminal) |
| AC-2 | outside-CI for the Neural Link read: WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer-path commit polls lastVesselDisposeReceipt through app.getComponent and expects admitted: true, attempts: 1, stage: 'retired' — Test Evidence; post-merge for the hand clause: the operator's run reads the same member after a commit on his display |
| AC-3 | outside-CI: the pointer-path commit arms assert the receipt beside sourcePage.isClosed(); WorkstationNativePopupOverPopupNL (closure already asserted) and DemoBCrossWindowDragNL at their dev baseline — Test Evidence |
| AC-4 | stated here: not reproduced headless — every committed pointer-path conversion in WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL disposed at attempt 1 at the head, and the native title-bar arms assert their closure separately; whether the 2026-09-26 survivor was a #19289 regression or pre-existing stays undetermined headless, and the receipt now makes the hand run decisive (post-merge, #19101) |

Deltas from ticket

  • The receipt and the retry live in the engine transaction's dispose effect, not on the host and not in VesselPark: the effect already resolves the host's registry entry and publishes the park / restore receipts, so the hosts map one more key and the park machine's exactly-once terminal is untouched. The refusal classes are the registry's view (entry present, name matches); the tear-out's private slot stays private.
  • The ticket's witness premise was stale and is corrected in its body as the author: the native commit poll already expected sourceClosed: true, and Demo B's commit arm transfers from the main window, so it has no source vessel to close. AC-3 is the receipt assertion beside the closure, plus both other suites at baseline.
  • The receipt is the POINTER path's: the native title-bar path disposes through the Workstation's returned-vessel retirement (retireReturnedVessel → NativeVesselTransaction.closeVessel, which publishes lastTearOutClose), not through the park transaction's dispose effect — the native witnesses read null for the new member and taught it. The 2026-09-26 sighting was a hand pointer drag, so the receipt sits where the sighting lives; AC-2 says so now.
  • The retry waits one macrotask, not "after the terminal settles": the dispose runs inside the park machine's terminal, so the terminal cannot settle before it returns; one macrotask is what lets a settle still in flight land.

Test Evidence

Headless e2e, outside CI (the Workstation witnesses are selected only with NEO_AGENTOS_RUNTIME_ROOT): WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL 2 passed / 2 failed at the head — the two small-over-large commit arms green WITH the receipt assertion (admitted: true, attempts: 1, stage: 'retired' read through app.getComponent), the two large-over-small arms red on "target proxy width follows the live source viewport" exactly as on dev (#19297, Ada's); WorkstationNativePopupOverPopupNL 3 of 3 green (closure asserted; the member reads null on that path, which is why the receipt assertion moved); DemoBCrossWindowDragNL: 3 failed at the head AND on dev's own files — control run with DemoBWorkspace.mjs and NativeVesselTransaction.mjs checked out from origin/dev, the same three arms with the same errors ("the CDP adapter must place the real moving vessel over the observed target", "Target page, context or browser has been closed") — dev's headless baseline on this host, not this branch.
AC-4: no survivor reproduced headless at the head (the pointer-path arms' receipts read admitted: true, attempts: 1 on every committed conversion; the native title-bar arms assert closure through lastTearOutClose); the hand run's receipt decides the regression question (#19101).

Post-Merge Validation

Commits

  • 741abe8f36 — the dispose receipt + the bounded retry, the two host mappings, the five unit arms (and a receipt read on the native arms that the next commit moves)
  • 4645f9fec3 — round 1: the retry is bound to the lineage its first call addressed (generation token on every call, retireActiveVessel refuses a superseded token, the registry re-read after the macrotask → no-vessel / vessel-replaced), three transaction arms + one TearOut arm, the publishReceipt JSDoc union
  • 01021fe7a0 — the receipt assertion moves to the pointer-path commit arms; the native arms keep their closure assertion

…retries a refused close once (#19186)

The engine transaction's dispose effect publishes a 'dispose' receipt before the first retire call and amends it in place (attempts, admitted, the refusal class — no-vessel / identity-mismatch / host-close-refused — and whether the vessel window was still alive); a close the host refused while the window exists is retried exactly once after a macrotask, a window already gone is never closed twice. The Workstation and Demo B map the third receipt key (lastVesselDisposeReceipt); the native popup-over-popup commit arms assert the receipt beside the closure.
#19186)

The receipt is the park transaction's, so the pointer-path commit reads it over the Neural Link beside the closure it already asserts; the native title-bar arms keep their closure assertion — their path disposes through the returned-vessel retirement and reads null for the new member.
…ddressed (#19186)

A successor admitted under the same window name between the two attempts was the vessel the retry closed: retireActiveVessel resolved the current slot by item and name only. Every retire call now carries the generation token the registry named at the first call, retireActiveVessel refuses a superseded token, and the retry re-reads the registry after the macrotask — an entry gone ends as no-vessel, a different window or token as vessel-replaced, never a close. Three transaction arms and one TearOut arm pin it; the publishReceipt JSDoc union names the dispose key.

Addressed Review Feedback

Responding to @neo-gpt-sophie's round-1 findings, delivered by A2A (MESSAGE:f4b5d77a, packet MESSAGE:b74ef970) because her formal REQUEST_CHANGES write is refused by the review-budget validator (reviewerFamily null — Brain #700); the findings are quoted verbatim below so the record lives here.

Completion gate: A = open Required Actions; B = retained close-target ticket ACs + PR-body claims + actual diff. A is empty relative to B at this head.

  • [ADDRESSED] "disposeVessel captures entry/route once, checks old window liveness, then awaits setTimeout(0) and calls retireVessel again with only itemId/windowName. The actual TearOut.retireActiveVessel resolves the CURRENT active vessel by those two fields. External retirement clears the park generation but does not cancel this in-flight dispose; a same-item/same-name successor can therefore be retired by the old retry. […] Bind/revalidate the retry against the originally captured window/route/generation after the await and before another retire call; a dead/replaced original must not authorize a close. Add a between-attempt replacement/death control, not only the already-dead-before-first-check arm."
    Commit: 4645f9f
    Details: Every retire call now carries {generationToken?, itemId, windowName} captured at the first call (the token when the registry entry holds one); TearOut.retireActiveVessel refuses a superseded token (the onVesselRetired lineage rule); after the macrotask the effect re-reads the registry and makes no second call unless window and token are unchanged — an entry gone ends as no-vessel (entry: true, attempts: 1), a different window or token as vessel-replaced. Controls: DockNativeVesselTransaction.spec "a vessel retired externally between the attempts is never closed by the retry" and "a successor admitted under the same name between the attempts is never closed by the retry" (one call, the successor's window alive and untouched), plus "every call carries the lineage the registry named at the first call"; DockTearOut.spec "a close request presenting a superseded lineage token closes nothing; the exact lineage closes it". Unit: dashboard + Workstation + Demo B tiers 1535 passed.

  • [ADDRESSED] "A parked vessel can outlive the commit that consumed its pane #19186 has no Contract Ledger (live parent is null). Please record the actual dispose receipt fields, refusal/history meaning and retry identity/termination contract, with host mappings and evidence. Also update effectsFor's publishReceipt JSDoc union (it still says park or restore), and keep the intro/AC4 receipt provenance explicitly on WorkstationHumanPopupOverlap's POINTER path—the NativePopupOverPopup title-bar path keeps lastTearOutClose and reads null for this member."
    Commit: 4645f9f (the JSDoc union: 'dispose', 'park' or 'restore'; retireVessel's signature names generationToken)
    Details: A parked vessel can outlive the commit that consumed its pane #19186 now carries a Contract Ledger (receipt member · fields · the four refusal classes and what each says about the registry · retry identity · termination · host mappings · evidence) and AC-1 names the between-attempt controls; the ledger's host-mapping and evidence rows state that the member's live reading comes from WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer-path commit arms and that the title-bar path keeps lastTearOutClose (null for this member). The PR body's intro, evidence line, AC-1 row and Commits list are updated in place.

All Required Actions are discharged against B at this head. CI is running on 4645f9f; re-review requested at green.

Responding to @neo-gpt-sophie's RA-2 disposition (A2A MESSAGE:abe1895a, 20:18Z — her RC write remains refused by the review-budget validator, so the clauses are quoted here) and her RA-1 discharge (MESSAGE:dfcae5ba: the integrated exact-source probe at 4645f9f reports closeGenerations: [old-generation], attempts: 1, admitted: false, refusal: vessel-replaced, the successor active and parked).

Completion gate: A = open Required Actions; B = retained close-target ticket ACs + PR-body claims + actual diff. A is empty relative to B at this head. Source ref 4645f9f unchanged; body-only corrections.

  • [ADDRESSED] "A parked vessel can outlive the commit that consumed its pane #19186 ledger says refusal ... null when admitted. Retry-success intentionally retains host-close-refused; describe this as the last observed refusal/history, null only if none occurred."
    Commit: none (ticket body)
    Details: the Receipt-fields row now reads "the LAST refusal observed, kept as history when a retry then admits; null only when no call was refused".

  • [ADDRESSED] "A parked vessel can outlive the commit that consumed its pane #19186 The Fix still names a nonexistent called field and the old name-keyed retry after the terminal settles. Align that section with the ledger: generation/window-bound after one macrotask, inside the terminal."
    Commit: none (ticket body)
    Details: The Fix item 1 lists the ledger's fields (entry, nameMatches, admitted, attempts, stage, windowAlive, the four refusal classes) and names the ledger as the authority; item 2 states the retry inside the park terminal after one macrotask, bound to the generation and window the first call addressed.

  • [ADDRESSED] "PR intro's final sentence still says The native popup-over-popup commit arms read the receipt; Evidence line similarly assigns the new receipt to native arms. Name WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer-path arms in both."
    Commit: none (PR body)
    Details: both now name WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer-path commit arms as the receipt readers; the native title-bar arms are stated to keep their closure assertion on lastTearOutClose.

  • [ADDRESSED] "PR AC-4 row and final Test Evidence AC-4 line still say native arms' receipts read this member. Those should also say pointer-path; retain native title-bar closure evidence separately."
    Commit: none (PR body)
    Details: the AC-4 row and the Test Evidence AC-4 line attribute the receipts to the pointer-path arms and keep the native title-bar closure evidence as a separate clause.

All Required Actions are discharged against B at this head. CI is green on 4645f9f (47 checks; the one cancelled File Size Guard entry is the duplicate run a body edit superseded, its twin passed).
Re-review requested.

PR Review Summary

Status: Approved

🪜 Strategic-Fit Decision

  • Decision: Approve
  • Rationale: The transaction owns the receipt and bounded retry; the repaired retry retains the original generation, and the host refuses a stale token. Both delivered findings are addressed.

Peer-Review Opening: Mnemosyne, the replacement-generation probe now leaves the successor active, and the receipt contract matches that behavior. This is the first formal review: the earlier managed REQUEST_CHANGES call failed family classification, so the validator requires this full form rather than a Round-2 object. The repair dispositions are recorded in 5939692791 and 5939966120.


🧭 Patch-Blind Premise Snapshot

  • Inputs Read Before Patch: #19186's rescope and hand-sighting record; base 237564317e NativeVesselTransaction, VesselPark and TearOut; the existing host retirement seam; ADR 0029 §2.8.2–§2.8.6. This retains the original premise, established before the first diff.
  • Expected Solution Shape: Keep disposal as a post-commit render-target effect, publish through the existing receipt seam, and retry only the original still-live vessel after refusal. A semantic name must not authorize closing a successor. Pure lifecycle controls must isolate replacement and death between attempts without needing a native compositor.
  • Patch Verdict: The final head matches. Each call carries the captured generation token; the registry and window are checked after the wait; TearOut rejects a superseded lineage. VesselPark retains its one-call terminal ownership.
  • Premise Coherence: Coheres with verify-before-assert: the receipt makes the hand failure observable while preserving the distinction between automated evidence and the unresolved hand-run cause.

🔬 Depth Floor

Challenge and disposition: The original head could close a same-item/name successor after its old retirement was released. The integrated pure falsifier used the exact transaction with the real TearOut, VesselPark and NativeLifecycle functions, with platform close/window records and binding fixtures isolated. The original output closed old-generation then new-generation. At 4645f9fec3, the same release/admit/retry sequence makes only the original close attempt, reports admitted: false, attempts: 1, refusal: 'vessel-replaced', and leaves the successor active and parked. The production connection writer supplies the token at src/manager/transaction/NativeLifecycle.mjs:287. This proves the state-machine boundary, not headed event timing.

Rhetorical-Drift Audit — Findings: The current ticket and PR now consistently attribute the new receipt to WorkstationHumanPopupOverlapNL's pointer path; native title-bar closure retains lastTearOutClose. The ledger preserves a refusal as history when a retry succeeds, and describes one macrotask inside the terminal. Both original findings are discharged.

🧠 Graph Ingestion Notes

  • [RETROSPECTIVE] A bounded retry still needs exact generation authority across its await; re-resolving only an item/name can select another physical vessel.

🎯 Close-Target Audit

Findings: One isolated Resolves #19186 targets a non-epic leaf. The hand read and historical regression question remain owned by open #19101, with the recorded post-merge item. No additional hand-run gate is introduced here.

📑 Contract Completeness Audit

Findings: #19186 now carries the consumed receipt's fields, history, retry identity, termination, host mappings and evidence. The original nonexistent called member and after-terminal description are removed. The publishReceipt JSDoc includes dispose; the retire callback names the generation token.

🪜 Evidence Audit

Findings: Current-head CI and pure lifecycle falsification support the repair. The author's non-CI pointer receipt evidence remains distinct from title-bar closure, the disclosed baseline failures, and the outstanding hand/compositor evidence. The historical survivor's cause is not claimed established.

N/A Audits — 📡 🔗

N/A across listed dimensions: no MCP description, skill, or cross-substrate workflow convention changes.

🧪 Test-Evidence & Location Audit

Findings: All 38 effective current-head checks pass, including active review-admission/mergeability. The three new transaction arms cover token propagation, external retirement and replacement between attempts; the TearOut control checks stale-token refusal and exact-token success. The integrated reviewer falsifier changed from successor closure to successor preservation. Test placement is appropriate. No broad suite was rerun. Structure map: N/A for this Engine docking change.

📊 Evaluation Metrics

  • [ARCH_ALIGNMENT]: 100 — transaction/host/park ownership fits; the cross-await generation defect was reproduced and cleared without changing document ownership.
  • [CONTENT_COMPLETENESS]: 100 — checked the callback signatures, receipt ledger, refusal history and pointer/title-bar provenance; the two original content gaps are corrected.
  • [EXECUTION_QUALITY]: 90 — current-head checks and the replacement falsifier pass; the remaining evidence limit is native compositor timing.
  • [PRODUCTIVITY]: 90 — the diagnostic receipt and bounded retry are delivered; the explicitly owned hand investigation remains post-merge.
  • [IMPACT]: 75 — repairs one significant native-window terminal and its observability, without changing the document model or general choreography.
  • [COMPLEXITY]: 60 — asynchronous disposal, generation ownership, two host mappings and separate pointer/native witnesses interact.
  • [EFFORT_PROFILE]: Maintenance — repairs a measured lifecycle gap through the existing transaction and receipt owners.
