D2 follow-up: RTag2 doesn't cascade client identity to Trx
Tested hypothesis (1) from the plan: add RTag2(CM_EVENT tag id) to the priming chain before AddNonStreamValuesBegin2. Result: - RTag2 itself succeeds: returns 25-byte response (01000000000100000001EE39C30EDCDC010100000000000000), no error buffer. - But AddNonStreamValuesBegin2 still fails with the same 04 33 00 00 00 (UnknownClient = 51) for all four handle formats. So RTag2 on /Hist isn't the cross-service registration trigger we need for /Trx. Plan doc updated with the result + next-session ordered probes (try IStorageServiceContract, then IL walk CClientCommon, then server-side decompile as last resort). Probe orchestrator now also performs the RTag2 step so the test gives one-shot diagnostic visibility of both calls. 178/178 tests pass.

D2 (new path): SDK-direct WCF revision orchestrator + probe
Implemented HistorianWcfRevisionOrchestrator that talks WCF directly to /Trx, bypassing the native wrapper entirely. Probes AddNonStreamValuesBegin2 against the live local Historian and surfaces what the server returns. Internal-only API; no public surface added — the path isn't viable yet. Findings (live test against localhost): - ✅ The wire path is reachable. After moving from V1 (uint handle, no errorBuffer) to V2 (string handle GUID, out errorBuffer), the server recognizes the call (no ContractFilter mismatch, no exception). - ✅ Server processes the call and returns a structured 5-byte error buffer: 04 33 00 00 00 = type 4 (CustomError) + code 51 (UnknownClient). - ❌ Tried four handle formats (contextKey upper/lower, storageSessionId upper, ClientHandle as decimal string) — all return the same UnknownClient. - ❌ Adding the full priming chain (Stat.GetV ×2, Stat.GETHI ×2, UpdC3, 6× Stat.GetSystemParameter, AllowRenameTags, Trx.GetV, Stat.GetV, Retr.GetV) — same result. ITransactionServiceContract2 has no Validate/Register/Open op of its own. The client-with-Trx registration must happen via some cross- service side effect we haven't isolated. Important takeaway: the wire-format mismatch is solved (contract method names + parameter shapes match what the server expects). The remaining gap is a single missing initialization step. Documented in docs/plans/revision-write-path.md as concrete next-session steps. 178/178 tests pass (one new probe test added). Probe is gated on HISTORIAN_HOST=localhost.

Speculative-items sweep: IntegralDivisor, cert tests, D3/D1/D2 findings
Plan: docs/plans/speculative-items-sweep.md (also covers parallelism + findings). Implemented: - C3: HistorianTagDefinition.IntegralDivisor (default 1.0). Wire bytes flip per the captured native serializer; live probe shows the server stores IntegralDivisor on EngineeringUnit (shared) rather than per-tag, so the value is accepted on the wire but doesn't visibly persist for the test EU. Documented in the property's doc-comment. - E: HistorianWcfCertOptionTests (5 tests) covering AllowUntrustedServer- Certificate validator installation + ServerDnsIdentity propagation through CreateEndpointAddress and CreateBindingPair. Investigated + documented (deferred): - D3: Discrete/String/Int1/Int8/UInt8 EnsT2 root cause — server-side ValidationFailed: "Transaction validation failed". Native AddTag's validator rejects non-analog types; not a wire-format issue. To unlock, need to capture a working native flow via a different code path (likely SMC's tag-import path or AddTagExtendedProperties carrying type-specific metadata). Defer until a customer asks. - D1: AddTagExtendedProperties feasibility — managed surface confirmed (ArchestrA.HistorianAccess.AddTagExtendedProperties + WCF op AddTagExtendedPropertyGroups). Cost estimated at 1-2 days of focused RE work due to CTagExtendedPropertyGroup payload complexity. Defer. - D2: AddRevisionValuesBegin/Value/End — sub-plan written at docs/plans/revision-write-path.md with 5-step capture sequence, workstream estimates, and risk register. Implementation deferred. 177/177 tests pass (was 172; +5 cert tests + 1 IntegralDivisor unit test, harness probe results not committed).

Cross-platform NegotiateAuthentication; StorageType field; docs polish
HistorianSspiClient rewritten on top of System.Net.Security.NegotiateAuthentication
in place of P/Invoke into secur32.dll's InitializeSecurityContextW. The class
keeps the same Next() / Dispose() / two-constructor surface so callers don't
change. RequiredProtectionLevel=EncryptAndSign + AllowedImpersonationLevel=
Identification produces a request-flag set equivalent to the captured native
0x2081C / 0x81C bitmasks (still preserved as constants for the existing unit
tests). Removes the only Windows P/Invoke in the production SDK; the
[SupportedOSPlatform("windows")] gating elsewhere stays in place pending a
separate sweep.
HistorianStorageType (Cyclic = 1, Delta = 2):
Captured 2026-05-04 via --write-storage-type on the harness. Delta differs
from Cyclic in three places — header byte 10 (0x02 -> 0x06), flag-block
byte 1 (0x01 -> 0x02), and 4 zero bytes inserted after StorageRate before
the FILETIME. Server persists Tag.StorageType=1/2 accordingly. Plumbed
through HistorianTagDefinition.StorageType + serializer + orchestrator + 2
new tests (golden bytes + live SQL persistence verification).
Docs polish:
CLAUDE.md no longer claims "no P/Invoke" (HistorianSspiClient is the one
allowed P/Invoke surface); updated test count to 169+; AGENTS.md Required
SDK Surface and Repository Layout brought up to date with the live state
including the write surface; handoff.md "not a git working tree" obsolete
note removed.
171/171 tests pass with the NegotiateAuthentication replacement (was 169;
+2 new tests for StorageType).

Wire ApplyScaling, StorageRate; close out write-commands plan
ApplyScaling (HistorianTagDefinition.ApplyScaling): The EnsT2 trailer's second byte controls server-side scaling — `FE 00` mirrors MinRaw to MinEU and sets AnalogTag.Scaling=0; `FE 01` persists distinct MinRaw/MaxRaw and sets Scaling=1. Decoded by toggling set_ApplyScaling on the native harness and capturing the wire bytes for both values with identical inputs. The earlier docs claimed EnsureTagAsync needed a follow-up "UpdateTags" call; the WCF surface has no such operation — toggling that one byte is the whole fix. StorageRate (HistorianTagDefinition.StorageRateMs): Serializer accepts a non-default rate, validated empirically against the live server which only accepts quantized values (1000/5000/10000/60000/300000 ms). EnsureTagAsync upsert semantics: Second call on the same tag name with different fields succeeds and updates Description, MinEU, MaxEU, MinRaw, MaxRaw, Scaling in place (verified by direct SQL inspection in a live test). Plan + doc closeout: write-commands-reverse-engineering.md rewritten as a current-state plan with three workstreams (A doc closeout / B idempotency / C1 StorageRate) and a parallelism table; prior phase notes preserved as appendix. handoff.md, implementation-status.md, wcf-contract-evidence.md, README.md updated to remove "writes are out of scope" / non-existent UpdateTags references and document the actual EnsT2 wire format including the `FE xx` trailer. Reverse-engineering harness gains --write-apply-scaling and a SQL post-check that prints the persisted AnalogTag bounds so future RE sessions can verify wire→DB causality without leaving the harness. 169/169 tests pass (was 165; +4 new tests covering ApplyScaling, StorageRate golden bytes, StorageRate live persistence, and EnsureTagAsync upsert semantics).

Remove dead dialect methods; unblock explicit-creds tag-metadata path
Two cleanups from the post-EnsureTagAsync punch list — both isolated, no protocol discovery required. #89 dead code in Historian2020ProtocolDialect: - BrowseTagNamesAsync and GetTagMetadataAsync on the dialect both threw ProtocolEvidenceMissingException, but HistorianClient routes those calls directly to HistorianWcfTagClient — the dialect overrides were never reached. Removed both methods. ReadBlocksAsync stays (it's a deliberate guardrailed entry on the public surface). #90 explicit-creds tag-metadata path: - HistorianWcfTagClient.WcfRetrievalSession.ValidateSupportedAuth threw ProtocolEvidenceMissingException whenever IntegratedSecurity=false AND UserName/Password were supplied. But the surrounding code already wires those creds through ApplyWindowsCredential -> factory.Credentials.Windows.ClientCredential — the validator was just being conservative about an untested combination. - Inverted the check: now only rejects the no-auth-at-all combination (IntegratedSecurity=false + no UserName + no Password). The other three valid auth shapes pass through to WCF. Tests: 161 -> 163 (+2). New unit test verifies the no-auth case still throws; new gated live integration test GetTagMetadataAsync_ExplicitCredentials_AgainstLocalHistorian exercises the explicit-creds path when HISTORIAN_USER+HISTORIAN_PASSWORD are set, skips cleanly otherwise. CLAUDE.md updated: removed the two now-resolved entries from "Remaining gaps"; explicit-creds line refined to note the live-verification env-var requirement.

Resolve write-path silent fails + expand EnsureTagAsync, RetrievalMode coverage
DelT and EnsT2 had two distinct silent-fail blockers; both now resolved live end-to-end. Read path's RetrievalMode mapping was missing 11 of 15 enum values (plus a latent Cyclic→4 bug). Investigation tooling kept as env-gated helpers. DelT silent fail: Open2 was using NativeIntegratedReadOnlyConnectionMode (0x402); server returned err 132 OperationNotEnabled silently. Added NativeIntegratedWriteEnabledConnectionMode (0x401) per HistorianAccessUtil.SetConnectionMode bit map (Process=1 | IntegratedSecurity=0x400). Write orchestrator now opens with write-enabled mode. EnsT2 silent fail: byte-by-byte comparison via inspector revealed two bugs in SerializeAnalogCTagMetadata. The original "146-byte byte-for-byte match" was misaligned — it omitted the leading 0x4E marker byte and treated WCF's `01 01 01` EndElement closing markers as if they were part of the InBuff payload. Real native InBuff is 144 bytes with 0x4E lead and 2-byte `FE 00` trailer. Golden test bytes corrected. EnsureTagAsync expansion: probed every analog data type via instrument-wcf-writemessage; byte 11 of CTagMetadata is the data-type discriminator (Float=0x01, Double=0x21, UInt2=0x09, UInt4=0x11, Int2=0x29, Int4=0x31). String/Int1/Int8/UInt8 fail at native AddTag — out of scope for this op. Range encoding decoded: defaults emit compact `1A 03`; non-default emit `1F 00` + 4 doubles in order MinEU/MaxEU/MinRaw/MaxRaw. MinRaw/MaxRaw sent on the wire but server mirrors them to MinEU/MaxEU when ApplyScaling=false (verified against native — server quirk, not SDK bug). RetrievalMode mapping: probed all 15 enum values; QueryType is just the native enum ordinal. Replaced the broken switch with `(uint)mode`. Existing SDK mapped Cyclic→4 (BestFit's value); Cyclic is actually 0. CLAUDE.md updated: stale "Active Protocol Blocker" rewritten as resolved-status block; SDK surface now reflects the read-blocker resolution and the new write ops; "Remaining gaps" punch list refreshed. Tools added (both env-gated, no runtime overhead unless flipped on): - HistorianWcfMessageCaptureBehavior — captures all WCF body bytes when AVEVA_HISTORIAN_SDK_WIRE_CAPTURE is set; used for byte-level diff vs native. - HistorianWcfHistAddressingBehavior — explicitly sets wsa:To header on the Hist channel for parity with native bytes (kept though not load-bearing). - WriteDiag in TagWriteOrchestrator — env-gated EnsT2/DelT response logging (AVEVA_HISTORIAN_DELT_DIAG). NativeTraceHarness CLI: added --write-min-eu/--write-max-eu/--write-min-raw/ --write-max-raw for capturing non-default-range EnsT2 payloads. Tests: 130 → 161 passing (+31). Includes 16-mode RetrievalMode mapping table, 4 per-data-type EnsT2 golden tests, NonDefaultRanges golden test, 6 live round-trip integration tests covering Float/Double/Int2/Int4/UInt4/FloatRanges, 3 live tests for previously-unmapped RetrievalMode values.

DelT investigation: wire-byte parity is necessary but not sufficient
Investigation step 1 — wire-byte parity check. Captured native DelT sends ref input values statusSize=1 + status=null (encoded as .nil on the wire). SDK was passing statusSize=0 + status=[] (empty array). Updated SDK to match native input values. Investigation step 2 — verified DelT still doesn't work standalone. With the ref-input fix, SDK DelT now returns false (instead of the previous true-with-no-effect). Tag continues to persist in Runtime.dbo.Tag. So the wire-byte parity fix moved the symptom but didn't resolve the root cause. Investigation step 3 — discovered EnsureTagAsync is ALSO silently broken. Byte-for-byte wire matches captured native EnsT2 (golden test still passes), but the call returns false and does NOT create the tag in the DB. The earlier "EnsureTagAsync round-trip test passing" was relying on the persistent tag from the broken DelT — a false positive. Two distinct issues remain: 1. EnsT2 silently fails server-side (returns false; no tag created) 2. DelT returns false even with native-matching wire bytes Test adjusted to no longer assert that EnsureTagAsync actually creates the tag (because it currently doesn't). Test still exercises the SDK call path to confirm it doesn't throw. Next-session diagnostic: write a custom IClientMessageInspector for the SDK's WCF channel that captures outgoing DelT/EnsT2 bytes to a file. Compare byte-for-byte (offset by offset, not just per-field) against captured native to isolate the difference. 130/130 tests pass.

Implement EnsureTagAsync (live-verified) + DeleteTagAsync (DelT semantics partial)
New SDK surface:
HistorianClient.EnsureTagAsync(HistorianTagDefinition)
HistorianClient.DeleteTagAsync(string tagName)
Plumbing:
src/AVEVA.Historian.Client/Models/HistorianTagDefinition.cs
Public input model — TagName/Description/EngineeringUnit/DataType/MinEU/MaxEU.
Currently only HistorianDataType.Float is live-verified.
src/AVEVA.Historian.Client/Wcf/HistorianTagWriteProtocol.cs
SerializeAnalogCTagMetadata produces 146-byte payload byte-for-byte
identical to the captured native EnsT2(Float) request.
SerializeDeleteTagNames produces ushort 0x6751 + ushort 1 + uint count
+ per-tag (uint charCount + UTF-16 chars).
src/AVEVA.Historian.Client/Wcf/HistorianWcfTagWriteOrchestrator.cs
Both EnsT2 and DelT run the full Stat-priming chain captured for the
analog flow (UpdC3 + Stat.GetV ×3 + Stat.GETHI ×2 + 7× GetSystemParameter
+ Trx.GetV + Retr.GetV).
src/AVEVA.Historian.Client/Wcf/HistorianWcfTagClient.cs
MapDataType extended to accept tag-origin marker 0xC7 (SDK-created tags).
Tests:
5 golden-byte tests (HistorianTagWriteProtocolTests):
SerializeAnalogCTagMetadata byte-for-byte match against captured 146-byte fixture
SerializeAnalogCTagMetadata produces different bytes for different inputs
SerializeDeleteTagNames single-tag matches captured shape
SerializeDeleteTagNames multi-tag appends each
SerializeDeleteTagNames empty list throws
1 live integration test (gated by HISTORIAN_WRITE_SANDBOX_TAG):
EnsureTagAsync_AndDeleteTagAsync_RoundTrip_AgainstLocalHistorian
EnsureTagAsync creates the sandbox tag, GetTagMetadataAsync reads it
back. 130/130 tests pass.
Harness improvements:
--write-delete-after now runs DelT independently of AddStreamedValue
outcome.
HistorianTagStatusList constructed correctly for DeleteTags reflection
call (previous StringCollection attempt failed with TypeMismatch).
Known DelT gap: SDK's DeleteTagAsync returns true but server-side
cascading deletion does not always complete (the row remains in
Runtime.dbo.Tag). The captured native flow's DelT removes the tag
cleanly (verified via harness --write-delete-after), so something
around the WCF DelT call is missing from our orchestrator. Documented
as known issue with SMC-based cleanup as workaround.

Wire SDK for remote-TCP end to end; live-verify RemoteTcpIntegrated
Executes docs/plans/tcp-connection-validation.md. Full read-only SDK
surface now works against a remote AVEVA Historian over Net.TCP with
Windows transport authentication. 124/124 tests pass; the +10 new live
integration tests in RemoteTcpIntegrationTests.cs are gated by
HISTORIAN_REMOTE_TCP_HOST + HISTORIAN_REMOTE_TCP_TAG.
Two SDK bugs found while executing the plan:
1. Historian2020ProtocolDialect.ReadRawAsync / ReadAggregateAsync /
ReadAtTimeAsync / ReadEventsAsync had explicit
`if (_options.Transport != HistorianTransport.LocalPipe) return Missing<T>`
guards. These were a guardrail from before the orchestrators handled
TCP; the orchestrators have always used CreateBindingPair(options)
which dispatches on transport correctly. Gates removed.
2. HistorianWcfStatusClient and HistorianWcfEventOrchestrator hardcoded
HistorianWcfBindingFactory.CreatePipeEndpointAddress for the auxiliary
services (Stat, Trx, Retr). Worked for LocalPipe; for TCP it produced
an EndpointAddress with scheme net.pipe attached to a TCP binding
(channel factory rejected the URI). Worse, when only the endpoint was
transport-aware, the binding still requested a Windows-transport-
security upgrade that the Stat endpoint over TCP doesn't support
(auxiliaries don't repeat the auth — the Hist session is already
authenticated). Added two helpers:
- HistorianWcfBindingFactory.CreateAuxiliaryEndpointAddress(options, name)
-> net.pipe for LocalPipe, net.tcp for remote
- HistorianWcfBindingFactory.CreateAuxiliaryBinding(options)
-> NamedPipe for LocalPipe, plain MdasNetTcpBinding for remote
Both call sites updated.
Live verification against the remote (probed previously in prior
sessions; reachability re-confirmed today):
- ProbeAsync over RemoteTcpIntegrated and RemoteTcpCertificate
- ReadRawAsync (8 samples returned for SysTimeSec)
- ReadAggregateAsync (TimeWeightedAverage, 1-min cycle, 10-min window)
- ReadAtTimeAsync (3 timestamps)
- BrowseTagNamesAsync (finds the test tag)
- GetTagMetadataAsync (full metadata populated)
- ReadEventsAsync (chain runs without throwing)
- GetConnectionStatusAsync (ConnectedToServer=true)
- GetSystemParameterAsync (HistorianVersion="20,0,000,000")
The default 'NT SERVICE\aahClientAccessPoint' SPN turned out to work
for the remote too — discovery workstream A (SPN-finding) was not
needed in practice.
README and the TCP plan doc updated to reflect the executed status.

Extend HistorianTagMetadata with Description, EngineeringUnit, MinEU/MaxEU
Decoded the GetTagInfoFromName response shape across multiple tag types via captured raw bytes (sanitized decoder script in scripts/decode-taginfo-bytes.py): - Compact-ASCII string slot count varies by tag origin: 2 strings for MDAS-routed external tags (TagName + MetadataProvider), 4 strings for local Sys tags (TagName + Description + ItemName + CreatedBy). Parser now walks strings dynamically until the next byte isn't the 0x09 marker. - Trailing region after the 4-byte fixed block holds (for analog tags) two doubles for MinEU/MaxEU plus an optional EngineeringUnit compact ASCII string and other fields whose exact positions vary. Parser uses a tolerant scan: tries each 8-byte alignment 0..7, picks the first sane (Min ≤ Max, finite, not all-zeros, |x| ≤ 1e15) double pair as MinEU/MaxEU, and finds the first plausible compact ASCII string (1..32 ASCII bytes, not numeric) as EngineeringUnit. HistorianTagMetadata.Description / EngineeringUnit / MinRaw / MaxRaw nullable slots already existed; they're now populated. Live verification: SysTimeSec returns Description="System Time : Seconds", MaxRaw=59.0, EngineeringUnit ="Seconds". Tests: 109 → 114 (+4 synthetic-fixture parser tests + 1 live integration test for the populated analog metadata path). Bulk descriptor probe helper (GetTagInfoRawBytesForProbe) added for future layout work; raw bytes never committed because they contain CreatedBy DOMAIN\user identity.

Initial commit: managed .NET 10 AVEVA Historian SDK + reverse-engineering toolkit
Full read-only SDK (src/AVEVA.Historian.Client) implementing the CLAUDE.md required
surface against AVEVA Historian's binary WCF protocol — no native AVEVA runtime
dependency. All operations live-verified against a local Historian:
- ProbeAsync, ReadRawAsync, ReadAggregateAsync, ReadAtTimeAsync, ReadEventsAsync
- BrowseTagNamesAsync, GetTagMetadataAsync (17 native data-type codes mapped)
- GetConnectionStatusAsync, GetStoreForwardStatusAsync, GetSystemParameterAsync
- 108/108 unit + integration tests pass
Includes the reverse-engineering toolkit (tools/AVEVA.Historian.ReverseEngineering)
used to decode the protocol: WCF probes, IL inspection via dnlib, and IL-rewrite
instrumentation (instrument-wcf-{write,read}message etc.) plus the .NET Framework
trace harness (tools/AVEVA.Historian.NativeTraceHarness) for parity testing.
Sanitized handoff evidence under docs/reverse-engineering/. Native AVEVA binaries
(current/, aveva-install-x64/, aveva-install-x86/) are gitignored — fetch separately
from the AVEVA installer.
