Resuming happens on the other machine, so anything that lived only in this
workspace either comes into the repo or gets named as something to carry.
**The launchers come in.** `run-canary-safe.sh` (Wine) and
`run-canary-native-safe.sh` (native) are the ONLY sanctioned way to start Canary
from the editor — they force software Vulkan and refuse to launch while a
hardware Vulkan device is visible, because Canary on the AMD GPU takes VS Code
with it. They sat in the workspace root, outside git, hardcoding one machine's
absolute paths, which is exactly why they could not be checked in. They now
derive the workspace from their own location and honour `$SYLPHEED_ISO` and
`$CANARY_BIN`, so the layout is a default rather than a requirement. Same for
`run-canary-native.sh` (interactive, hardware Vulkan — not from the IDE),
`diagnose-freeze.sh`, `live-guest-state.sh`, `heaptrack-wrap.sh` and the
`asound-null.conf` the native launcher needs beside it.
Both safe launchers were run from `tools/` before this commit: the native one
reached content in 20 s (`VERDICT: HEALTHY`, title + 25,398 XMA lines, no
faults), the Wine one ran 25 s and logged 4 `ADV.wmv` hits.
**`docs/agents/HANDOFF-2026-09-18.md`** records what changed since 2026-09-16,
what is on the server, what cannot travel through git, and the traps this machine
paid for — chiefly that the guest-PC branch probe exists only on the fork's
snapshot branch, so a rebuild from `sylpheed-re` silently loses it.
**`HANDOFF-2026-09-06.md`** gets a correction note rather than an edit: a plain
clone works again now that the 545 MB branch is gone, and its baselines are two
baselines old.

§§1-9 were written on fabi-Hyrican-PC. On the other desktop the ~/.sylph-*
credentials do not exist, the Pi does not resolve, and stable is 1.90.0 rather
than the 1.98.1 §8 records -- so §8.2 (fetch the WASM bundle) and §8.4 (Phase 7)
cannot be run from here at all. Says which of the four steps can.
Measured rather than carried over: protection holds (10/10), fmt is 774 hunks
across 154 files, check-citations is 19, and the tests are 207/0/14 across 30
suites. Two of those need reading carefully:
* clippy DIVERGES. The runner is rustc 1.98.1 -- read out of job 794's log,
not assumed -- and is clean; here 1.90.0 exits 101 on only_used_in_recursion
at vfs.rs:85. That is #15 ceasing to be theoretical. It is NOT evidence that
CI's green is fake, which is the §7 lesson-5 inference in the other
direction.
* the test tally matches to the unit while measuring something else. 15
*_disc.rs files resolve disc_root() through a hardcoded absolute path, so
unsetting SYLPHEED_DISC does not skip them: the disc suites RAN here (1936 s,
mesh_consistency_disc alone 1220 s) and skipped on CI (2.4 s total) -- and
both report 207/0/14, because the skip path returns from a test that still
passes. Good news for #14, since this run is the stronger evidence; and worth
an issue, since SYLPHEED_DISC looks like a control and is not one.
I got that last one wrong first -- inferred "the counts cannot match" from "the
fallback resolves", which is §7's shape a sixth time, recorded as such.
Also: a plain `git clone` of this repo fails three ways on the pack that still
carries the 545 MB; --filter=blob:none works. And §6's tokio claim was
challenged and survived -- every use is inside a #[cfg(test)] module.

Written to be read cold by a session with no context: what is established
versus what is someone's claim, which of the four actors the gate actually
binds, and what is in flight but unpushed.
The transferable part is §7 -- one failure shape recurred five times in two
days across two agents and the assistant: a property inferred from something
ADJACENT to it rather than tested directly. Protection from a settings page,
reachability from a DNS record, a label count from a grep that matched the
function definition, Gitea's host from a DNS lookup, and a clippy version from
rustfmt output parity. The last is the sharpest: rustfmt 1.8.0 and 1.9.0, nine
months apart, both emit 774 hunks here, so formatting parity carries no
information about which clippy ran -- and the conclusion drawn from it (that
CI's green was cached or ungated) was wrong in a way that would have sent
someone chasing a phantom.
