The port needs an initial delay and a repeat interval and has shipped the mechanism with -1.0 rather than invent them. This builds the instrument and does not get the numbers. The vertex stream is the right instrument: C_PAD_DECODER has no timer on any direction path, so the repeat is in the layer above and cannot be read out of that function; a cursor move is a quad changing position, and the guest's vertex buffer carries that with no Canary processing in the path. tools/re-capture/menu_repeat_probe.sh arms the logger, drives the boot with pad-file presses and holds a direction. It ran its whole sequence. But the boot did not reach the menu: in the settled era every quad shape holds a constant y, and the shapes are near-full-screen rects rather than a button list. No cursor, so nothing to repeat. Two instrument errors worth more than the failed run. The first attempt ARMED NOTHING and said nothing -- xdotool search --class ... --window %1 F10 behind a || true. The run completed normally and only the ABSENT log revealed it. The working form looks the window up by name, activates it, and sends F10 to the window and globally; a missing window is now fatal rather than tolerated, because a silent arming failure is indistinguishable from a screen that draws nothing. My first cursor detector measured the wrong change: presents where the SET of quads changed, which fired on 157 of 161 adjacent pairs because during a build-in everything animates. Tracking one quad shape's POSITION instead correctly reports no motion. That is the play-test's own lesson landing on me -- an instrument that measures change can still measure the change of the wrong thing. Next run must not drive the boot blind: gate the presses on a classifier or join with boot_menu.sh, which reaches the menu but takes screenshots rather than draw logs. Blind was chosen because screenshots cost ~10 s each while xenia runs; wrong trade, since a mistimed press costs the whole run. Reach: the negative is about this run, not the game. F1 stays open and the port should keep its -1.0 constants. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Jc4pciRArGHfxGGhEbwp5t
