1. RewriteEndpointUrl keeps the advertised port when the configured URL names none
(Uri.Port -1 would have sent the session to 4840); port-less + IPv6 tests.
2. The trailing re-read repairs any (value, status) difference that is not older than
the last delivered value — Good->Bad/Uncertain included; a read without a source
timestamp counts as newer; an equal source time with different content is published
(repairs the replay guard's by-design equal-timestamp drop).
3. One driver-wide delivery lock makes decide+publish atomic across live notifications,
the recovery read and the trailing read, so an older value can never land after a
newer one (deterministic race test via a seam).
4. Known gap documented: a ConnectionLost raised while the host is not Connected is
swallowed and that session falls back to the watchdog.
5. Only a SERVER-reported subscription loss raises ConnectionLost; the publishing-stall
heuristic stays with the #527 watchdog.
6. Post-recovery timers run on Task.Delay(…, Clock, ct) with a session-work CTS
cancelled on session release and dispose.
7. Replay summary at Information only when something was dropped (Debug otherwise);
a re-arm reports the superseded window's drops and counts afresh.
8. DriverInstanceActor: AttachHostStatusSource doc comment restored; Reconnecting
swallows a stray DisconnectObserved (test).
9. Stall wire test: 120 s session timeout, 3000-cycle subscription lifetime, one further
bad keep-alive tick, 60 s headroom on the post-recovery waits (5/5 green).
- Endpoint rewrite: the driver now connects to the configured host AND port (scheme
match, advertised path kept) instead of the server-advertised URL — fixes NAT/port-map
upstreams and lets an in-test proxy carry the session (SDK SelectEndpoint rule).
- TcpStallProxy + OpcUaClientDriverStallWireTests: the in-place blip (#670) is now
wire-tested on loopback — one Bad, frozen read stamp, same session, identical value
republished Good, a post-recovery change arrives, no source-time regression after
the SDK's late backlog flush.
- Defect found by that test, fixed: a change published right after a stall rode a
Publish response the SDK timed out and never republished, leaving the node Good on
the pre-change value indefinitely. New trailing reconcile read (Timeout +
KeepAliveInterval after recovery) publishes any Good value newer than the last
accepted one, through the replay guard's mark.
- IDriverConnectionLossSource (Core.Abstractions): opt-in definitive-loss signal.
DriverInstanceActor attaches in PreStart / detaches in PostStop and turns a raise
into a disconnect only while Connected. OpcUaClient raises once per session on
keep-alive BadSessionIdInvalid/BadSessionClosed/BadSessionNotActivated/
BadServerHalted (measured: the SDK never re-opens a halted channel) or a dropped
subscription; ambiguous codes stay with the #527 watchdog.
- Replay guard: one Information summary per recovery when the window closes
("dropped N late notifications across M refs"), with a timer so quiet
subscriptions log it too.
- ReconnectPeriod deleted (options, AdminUI form, docs, tests); stored configs that
carry reconnectPeriod still parse in the factory, probe and browser.
- Docs: OpcUaClient.md, DriverLifecycle.md, driver-specs.md, CLAUDE.md.
A bad keep-alive now degrades health (LastSuccessfulRead preserved) and,
once per outage, publishes BadNoCommunication (value retained) for every
subscribed ref plus a quality-only annotation on subscribed alarm
conditions. Good keep-alives and data/event notifications advance
LastSuccessfulRead, so an idle-but-alive subscription never looks dead
to the #527 watchdog. A keep-alive that recovers on the same session
re-reads the Bad refs and republishes them Good; a session that does not
come back is recovered by the watchdog's ShutdownAsync + InitializeAsync
+ re-subscribe.
Deletes the SessionReconnectHandler wiring (it retried forever in SDK
1.5.378, cloned subscriptions the driver never re-tracked and kept health
Healthy), OnReconnectComplete, TryRearmReconnect and the reconnect_*
counters (new keepalive_recovered). Teardown of a lost session skips
wire deletes and bounds CloseSession. SDK warnings reach the driver log.
Wire test reworked: restart => Bad, then watchdog-style reinit => Good.
- Historian.md: Empty samples always Bad (writer/updater/read clamp),
long-name refusal, 5 s bootstrap failure cache, AtTime after now, info-bit
masking, HistoryUpdate does NOT type-check (M-1 decision), DeleteRaw
needs both bounds, reverse Raw paging, the historian/historization metric
prefixes, and provisioning numeric-only lines qualified as Gateway.
- CLAUDE.md numeric-only lines qualified as Gateway backend.
- Stale 'sole historian' lines in DriverLifecycle, ServiceHosting and the
retired Wonderware stub; Client.CLI exit-code contract.
- ServerHistorianOptions: Endpoint/Backend XML docs untangled, Validate()
indented; Program.cs comments are backend-neutral; T10 week-test day count.

Since #516 a DriverConfig change is stop + respawn, so DriverSpawnPlan.ToApplyDelta
was always empty and the in-place path had no producer. #663 and #664 were both
latent bugs in it. This deletes it:
- host: ApplyChildDelta, _pendingDelta, HandleApplyResult and HandleDeltaApplied
- plan: DriverSpawnPlan.ToApplyDelta
- actor: the ApplyDelta, ApplyResult and DeltaApplied messages, the Connected
reinit handler and the mid-connect AdoptConfigDuringInit
- tests: the actor tests that drove the seam
IDriver.ReinitializeAsync and each driver's implementation and unit tests stay.
Comments and docs that cited AdoptConfigDuringInit as the reason a driver must
release prior state at init now cite the IDriver contract and overlapping
retries, which still apply.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ef2ozxS7QPanGT8uoATbTe
AdoptConfigDuringInit re-runs InitializeAsync(newConfig) and acks success, but
Calculation and Galaxy ignored the JSON there: Calculation kept its old tag
set, and Galaxy connected on its old endpoint. Calculation now rebuilds its tag
table from a config with a body (sharing AdoptConfig with ReinitializeAsync and
stopping any running timer scheduler first). Galaxy, which cannot hot-swap its
options, refuses a non-equivalent one the way ReinitializeAsync does. The actor
now sends DeltaApplied once the adopted init succeeds, so a dependency
consumer's mux interest is re-registered. Unreachable from deploys since #516.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ef2ozxS7QPanGT8uoATbTe
A Connected ApplyDelta called ReinitializeAsync and kept the actor's data and
native-alarm handles, though every driver's reinit drops the driver-side
subscriptions behind them (#630). The reconcile only re-subscribes a missing
handle, so the driver went silent until a reconnect. Release both at the
driver before the reinit and re-subscribe both in a finally. Unreachable from
deploys since #516; pinned by a two-case test, each case failing against a
different wrong fix.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ef2ozxS7QPanGT8uoATbTe
A data re-subscribe (every deploy's bulk SetDesiredSubscriptions push to a
kept driver) dropped the prior data subscription through the full
DetachSubscription, which also unhooked OnAlarmEvent and forgot the alarm
handle. On any deploy that did not respawn the driver, the alarm
subscription kept logging "established" while every event reached nobody
until a reconnect or respawn. The data path now uses DetachDataSubscription;
only a lost connection and PostStop detach both.
The #488 health-poll reconcile only looked at data, so an alarm subscribe
that failed on (re)connect gated the feed for the life of the connection.
ReconcileAlarmSubscription now re-attaches a missing handler and
re-subscribes a stale/missing alarm handle every tick.
OpcUaClient removes a half-built alarm subscription from its session when
SubscribeAlarmsAsync throws, so the new retries cannot accumulate.
Tests: actor-level data-resubscribe + reconcile-retry tests and an
end-to-end NativeAlarmFeedSurvivesDeployTests through DriverHostActor; all
three fail against the unfixed actor.

FOCAS, AbLegacy, AbCip, TwinCAT, S7 and OpcUaClient orphaned the previous

The default decider restarts a faulting child immediately and without limit, and
the hook makes every restart do ShutdownAsync+InitializeAsync+SubscribeAsync, so a
driver faulting on every value became a reconnect storm. Per-driver last-reprovision
stamp + DefaultReprovisionBackoff (10s, matched to DefaultReconnectInterval);
a held request is re-delivered by a single per-driver timer carrying the original
incarnation ref, so the F2 identity check still applies.
Seen RED with the backoff disabled: InitializeCount == 3 (second applied
immediately) where the test requires 2-then-3.
Also: the _children.Keys union-arm test (seeder gained taglessDrivers) and the
_desiredByDriver xmldoc note that it lingers on last-known-good after a failed apply.
The alarm subscribe gated on 'a handle exists', which is correct for an idempotent
re-push and wrong for a deploy that widens/narrows the set. Combined with the
spawn-time desired set, a respawning deploy could latch the PREVIOUS revision's
alarm refs for the life of the connection; sourceNodeIds-filtering drivers
(OpcUaClient/AbCip/Focas) would never deliver the new alarm.
Seen RED: LastSubscribedAlarmRefs stayed [alarmX] after a deploy widening to
[alarmX, alarmY].
Closes the two follow-ups left open by the MxGateway 0.2.0 bump. Reading the
gateway's own contract first changed what each of them is, and one of my earlier
claims was simply wrong -- both corrections are recorded below.
Replay gap
----------
A sentinel MxEvent carries family = UNSPECIFIED, so it fell through EventPump's
family switch into the default drop: we silently ignored a documented MUST ("you
missed events -- discard local state and re-snapshot"). It is now intercepted and
answered by re-issuing SubscribeBulk for every tracked subscription, since
MXAccess delivers an initial value per item on subscribe -- re-subscribing IS the
re-snapshot. It does not restart the event pump (the stream carrying the sentinel
is healthy, and the handler runs on that stream's own read loop, so disposing the
pump from there would deadlock on itself), it does not block the read loop, and
re-entry is gated so a burst collapses to one pass instead of a subscribe storm
per sentinel.
Handled on the READ loop, not in the dispatch loop, because everything past that
point is subject to newest-dropped channel pressure -- and "you missed events" is
the one signal whose loss is unrecoverable. Pinned by a test that fills the
channel and still expects the sentinel.
⚠️ This cannot fire in the shipped configuration, and I did not pretend otherwise
or paper over it by enabling resume. The gateway emits the sentinel only for a
stream opened with after_worker_sequence > 0; GatewayGalaxySubscriber passes 0,
which the gateway treats as "fresh stream, not a resume -- plain attach, no
replay, no sentinel". Enabling resume is a larger and genuinely delicate change:
the sequence is only meaningful within ONE gateway session, our reconnect
recreates the session, and replaying a remembered sequence against a fresh
session sets the server's live watermark ABOVE every event it is about to send --
silencing the stream instead of recovering it. That deserves its own change with
a live gate, which I cannot run from here.
Sparse arrays -- correcting the last commit message
---------------------------------------------------
I wrote that the bump "makes handling it possible" on the decode path. That is
wrong: MxSparseArray is documented write-only, the gateway expands it before
forwarding, and "the worker never receives or produces it". So the decode path
is unreachable by contract and the write path has no use for it either -- it is a
wire compaction for a WHOLE-array write, not a partial update (unmentioned
indices are RESET, deliberately, because the gateway cannot read-modify-write
without racing the provider). It is therefore the wrong primitive for an OPC UA
IndexRange write, which expects untouched elements preserved -- and WriteRequest
carries no IndexRange in the first place.
It is decoded anyway, as contract defence: the alternative if a future gateway
ever emits one is a silent null published under Good quality. Fill semantics
mirror the gateway's own SparseArrayExpander exactly (epoch for Time, empty
string, Integer widening to long[] when any element is int64) so a value that
round-trips through a write reads back as the same CLR array.
Also: the decoder is now total by contract, since it runs inside the dispatch
loop where an escaping exception kills dispatch for the life of the pump. A
malformed payload degrades instead of throwing.
A real defect found in the same code
------------------------------------
A stream the GATEWAY completes -- a closed or evicted session -- ends the RPC
without an error, so nothing threw, the supervisor was never notified, and the
pump exited silently. GetHealth() kept reporting Healthy, which also means the
#527 comms-loss watchdog could never trip, because it requires a non-Healthy
state. The driver went permanently deaf with no signal anywhere. This one is
live, unlike the two above. Now reported as a fault; the falsification control is
the existing CleanShutdown_DoesNotInvokeOnStreamFault, since our own disposal
also ends the stream and must NOT be reported.
Value kinds we cannot represent are now counted and warned once rather than
published as an indistinguishable null. The status is deliberately NOT downgraded
to Bad: nothing can reach that branch today, and changing what an OPC UA client
sees for a live shape is not a change to make without a gate. The counter exists
so the next person has evidence instead of a guess.
Verified: 330 Galaxy tests green (12 new), plus Galaxy.Browser 21, Runtime 558,
Core 351; full solution builds 0 errors with the warning census unchanged. Every
new test was falsified first -- disabling the gap interception reds 3 of 4 (the
throwing-callback test passes vacuously when the callback never runs, by
construction), disabling sparse decode plus the representability signal reds all
7 decoder tests, and both were restored and re-verified green.
Docs: the Galaxy.Performance invariant was stated as received = dispatched +
dropped + in-flight, which this breaks -- a sentinel is received but never enters
the channel -- so it now reads + replay_gaps. Galaxy.md gains the three
operational notes; DriverLifecycle.md records that "reaches a non-Healthy state"
is an obligation a driver can silently fail to meet, which is the general shape
of the clean-end bug.
The connect path was the one capability call the resilience pipeline never
saw, so a driver that could not connect contributed zero breaker input and
the /hosts resilience panel read 'All targets healthy' against a dead
endpoint. InitializeAsync now routes through the invoker as
DriverCapability.Initialize, keyed on the driver-instance id.
- No pipeline retry: the actor's RetryConnect timer is the retry loop
(parser forces retryCount overrides to 0, same funnel as write-shaped).
- Breaker threshold 2, not the Read-sized 5: the breaker samples 30 s and
the reconnect timer fires every 10 s, so at most three attempts fit one
window — threshold 5 could never open. Pinned by its own test.
- An open breaker fast-fails into the same InitializeFailed path as a real
connect failure; the 15 s break window costs at most one extra tick.
The best-effort teardown ShutdownAsync stays unwrapped.
- Companion fix: DriverCapabilityInvokerFactory.Create now invalidates the
instance's tracker snapshots with its pipelines — a respawn during an
outage discarded the only breaker whose OnClosed could clear the OPEN
flag, stranding a false 'Breaker OPEN' chip forever.
Live gate PASSED on docker-dev (image symbol-verified per container):
rtu-gate against dead 10.100.0.35:5021 opened its Initialize breaker on
both centrals with the red 'BREAKER OPEN' chip on /hosts; a socat
5021→5020 forwarder recovered it (both breakers closed within 1 s, panel
back to 'All targets healthy'); healthy MAIN-modbus recorded zero breaker
events. Full suite 50/50 green. Evidence:
docs/plans/2026-08-07-adminui-followups-and-live-gates.md §7.
DriverInstanceActor.DisconnectObserved had no production sender. The only paths
into Reconnecting were a failed *initial* connect and an operator's Force
Reconnect, so a driver that connected and then lost its device stayed Connected
indefinitely: publishing Bad for every tag, never re-initialising, and NOT
recovering when the device returned. PublishHealthSnapshot read GetHealth() for
reporting only and never acted on a driver reporting itself unhealthy.
Both comms-loss quality paths -- #477's native-condition annotation and #481's
scripted-alarm input fan-out -- hang off ConnectivityChanged, so both were
correctly wired to a signal that never fired.
The Connected health tick now evaluates a watchdog and self-sends
DisconnectObserved when the driver reports a non-Healthy state AND its
LastSuccessfulRead has been frozen for DefaultCommsLossTimeout (90s).
The conjunction is the design, and the issue's own proposal -- "non-Healthy for
N consecutive polls" -- is wrong. Degraded means *connected but some data is
bad*; several drivers write health per tag inside the read loop
(ModbusDriver.ReadAsync), so one unreadable address latches Degraded forever
against a perfectly reachable device, and a state-only watchdog would reconnect
that driver every 90s indefinitely -- worse than the bug. LastSuccessfulRead is
the honest evidence: preserved across Degraded/Faulted writes, advanced by any
success. The state check remains the second conjunct so an idle Healthy driver
with nothing subscribed is not declared dead for not reading.
Verified across all 12 drivers that a sustained failure does reach a non-Healthy
state -- nine poll drivers via Degraded, MQTT via live connection state, Galaxy
via its reconnect supervisor. CalculationDriver reports Healthy while running
and so can never trip, which is correct: it has no transport.
Also: the Reconnecting retry now calls ShutdownAsync before InitializeAsync.
ModbusDriver (_transport) and MqttDriver (_connection) overwrite an
IAsyncDisposable field inside InitializeAsync without disposing the previous
one, so re-initialising without a teardown leaks a socket per attempt -- latent
while only a manual Force Reconnect reached this path, but the watchdog makes it
automatic and unbounded (~360 leaks for an hour-long outage at the 10s retry).
Tests: 8 new in DriverInstanceActorCommsLossWatchdogTests, each absence
assertion carrying a positive control (a proven count of processed health-poll
ticks). Falsified five ways -- dropping either conjunct reds exactly the test
written for it, and removing the teardown, the null baseline, or the watchdog
call each reds its own guard.
Live gate PASSED on docker-dev (Modbus + otopcua-pymodbus-standard), run twice:
- fixture stopped -> watchdog fires at ~108s, "declaring comms lost"
- fan-out observed at Debug: "pushed BadNoCommunication for 2 mux ref(s)"
(#481 Layer 4) and the #477 native-condition annotation on a driver
owning conditions
- fixture restarted -> reconnected in ~8s with NO node restart; both the raw
(ns=2) and UNS (ns=3) NodeIds read Good with fresh timestamps

Both `IDriver` members had no production call site. Their only consumer was
`MemoryTracking`, deleted with the driver-tier recycle machinery in #522, and
`GetMemoryFootprint`'s doc-comment claimed "polled every 30s by Core" — which
had not been true since v3, even before #522 removed the poller.
Owner decision on #525 was (a) delete rather than (b) build the process-wide
watchdog that would consume them. The driver-side implementations are in git
history and were mostly reusable; what was always missing is the trigger, and a
member nobody calls is how the misleading doc-comment survived this long.
Removed from `IDriver`, all 12 driver implementations, and every test stub —
plus the support code that existed only to feed them, which is the part a
member-only deletion would have left behind as dead weight:
- MTConnect's three per-entry byte-weight constants, its cached
`ProbeModelDataItemCount`, and `CountDataItems` — a full device-tree walk run
on every cache fill to populate a number with no remaining reader.
- OpcUaClient's `_discoveredNodeCount` field and the discovery-pass write to it.
- MQTT's `ApproxBytesPerAuthoredTag`.
Two behavioural notes, neither a change in what the software does:
- `AbCipTemplateCache` now has no production reset path. Its only caller was
AB CIP's flush, which itself had no caller — so nothing changes except how
visible the fact is. Recorded on the type, along with the correction that its
comment's claim about a device `ReinitializeAsync` also flushing it was never
true. A UDT redefined on a live controller keeps its stale shape until the
driver instance is rebuilt.
- MTConnect's `/probe` cache is still dropped, by `InvalidateProbeModel()` on an
Agent restart. That is now `internal` rather than `private` so the tests which
used the flush purely to empty the cache drive the real path instead — they
now cover a case that actually occurs in production. Several unrelated doc
comments cited `FlushOptionalCachesAsync` as the canonical CAS example and are
repointed to it.
Tests: the ones that existed only to assert on the removed members are deleted
(3 OpcUaClient, 3 Galaxy, 2 MQTT, 1 MTConnect, 1 AbCip). Worth noting one was
vacuous — `FlushOptionalCachesAsync_resets_footprint_counter` asserted a
footprint of 0 before the flush and 0 after with no discovery in between, so it
would have passed against a flush that did nothing at all.
Full suite green except 7 failures verified identical on master before and
after (4 AbLegacy integration with the compose profile down, 3
Host.IntegrationTests), checked by name rather than assumed.
Docs corrected where they described this as live: `DriverLifecycle.md` (which
carried the #525 placeholder), `drivers/AbCip.md`, `drivers/AbLegacy.md`, and
`v2/driver-stability.md` — whose "polls this every 30 s" + per-driver
`DriverConfig` memory budget were never built as written and are now banner-ed
as design intent rather than description.

#519 — a driver's OPC UA status code now reaches a client with its sub-code intact.
DriverInstanceActor projected the driver's uint onto a 3-state Good/Uncertain/Bad enum
and OtOpcUaNodeManager re-expanded Bad to a bare 0x80000000, so BadNoCommunication,
BadTypeMismatch and BadNotSupported were indistinguishable on the wire and every
driver's status constants (incl. the 16 #497 had just corrected) were diagnostic in
logs only. Resolved by option (b): the raw uint rides AttributeValuePublished ->
AttributeValueUpdate -> IOpcUaAddressSpaceSink.WriteValue, OpcUaQuality is deleted, and
severity classification is a helper (OpcUaStatus.IsGood/IsUncertain/IsBad).
The surface was wider than the issue costed (41 files, not "the sink and 3
implementations"): OpcUaQuality had non-driver producers with no uint to carry.
Each got its natural code — BadInternalError for a failed virtual-tag script,
BadNoCommunication for driver comms loss — and ScriptedAlarmHostActor's pair of
mutually-inverse uint<->enum mappers is deleted, having round-tripped a code the
engine already held. AddressSpaceApplier's removal writes deliberately keep the
generic Bad: not losing a code the driver had is this issue; inventing one for the
deploy path is a separate call.
Behaviour change: WriteAlarmQuality fires its Part 9 event on a status-code change
rather than a severity-bucket change. While the annotation was 3-state those were the
same predicate; now a move between two Bad reasons changes what a subscriber reads.
New SDK-free named constants live on Commons.OpcUa.OpcUaStatus, and
StatusCodeParityTests is widened to cover them — that guard is reflection-driven, so
it can only see a named constant, never an inline literal.
#517 — the symptom is real but the issue named the wrong path and its fix was unsafe.
ShutdownAsync cannot race: DriverInstanceActor calls it from PostStop, after the
mailbox drains. (Core/Hosting/DriverHost, the one class with a concurrent GetHealth,
has no production call site.) InitializeAsync can: it runs on a fire-and-forget
Task.Run, and MTConnectDriver writes Healthy then starts loops that can throw into a
catch which disposes the client before writing Faulted.
Moving the write earlier, as suggested, inverts the terminal state — teardown drains
in-flight loops that write health as they unwind, so a late loop could leave Healthy at
rest with every connection closed. The fix is a bracket (conservative before, terminal
after), applied to MTConnect's init-failure path only; shutdown keeps its single
trailing write, and the rule plus the reachability table are documented on
IDriver.ShutdownAsync.
CalculationDriver.GetHealth returned a hard-coded Healthy that consulted nothing —
Healthy before initialize, after shutdown and after dispose. Now derived from _running.
Its test, named Health_is_always_Connected, asserted the defect and is replaced.
Every new guard was falsified by breaking the production code and watching it go red.
The two sub-code tests each assert two different Bad codes, since a single-code
assertion could pass against a hard-coded constant under the old projection.
Pre-existing failures, verified unchanged on a stashed tree and not chased: 4 in
Driver.AbLegacy.IntegrationTests (slc500/micrologix/plc5 fixtures not up) and 3 in
Host.IntegrationTests.

The tier system was documented, operator-authorable, and inert. Deleted rather than activated,
because its premise is gone rather than merely unused.
"Tier C" meant a driver running out-of-process behind an IDriverSupervisor that could restart its
Host without tearing down the OPC UA session. No such process exists anywhere: Galaxy reaches
MXAccess over gRPC to the external mxaccessgw sidecar (PR 7.2 retired the in-process
Galaxy.Host/Proxy/Shared projects) and FOCAS has run in-process since its managed wire client
landed 2026-04-24. Consistently, IDriverSupervisor had ZERO implementations and there was nothing
for one to implement against.
The issue understated the inertness. It says the Tier-C-only protections never engaged, implying
the Tier A/B parts did. They did not: nothing constructs MemoryTracking, MemoryRecycle or
ScheduledRecycleScheduler outside their own unit tests, so the whole Core/Stability recycle layer
was dead — meaning option (a), "pass real tiers", was never a flag flip. It would have meant
writing the wiring that never existed AND arming it.
Deleted: MemoryTracking, MemoryRecycle, ScheduledRecycleScheduler, IDriverSupervisor, the
vestigial DriverTypeRegistry (referenced only by its own tests), and the RecycleIntervalSeconds
knob — which the AdminUI let an operator author and the parser validated while it configured
nothing.
DriverTier itself SURVIVES and is load-bearing: DriverResilienceOptions.GetTierDefaults supplies
the real per-capability timeout/retry/breaker policies via DriverFactoryRegistry.GetTier and
DriverCapabilityInvokerFactory. Only the isolation-and-recycle layer above it is gone.
Deliberately NOT deleted:
- WedgeDetector came along in the same directory and is equally dead in production, but it is
tier-agnostic and is not recycle machinery — it only shares the folder. Restored rather than
swept up in a decision that was not about it.
- IDriver.GetMemoryFootprint() and FlushOptionalCachesAsync() lose their only consumer here.
Removing them touches all 12 drivers and every test stub, so they are documented as
consumerless and filed as #525 instead of buried in this diff.
Compatibility: a deployed ResilienceConfig blob still carrying "recycleIntervalSeconds" parses
cleanly (unknown keys are ignored — guarded by a new test, because a blob that suddenly failed to
parse would fall back to tier defaults and silently discard the operator's real overrides), and
the AdminUI's preserve-unknown-keys bag keeps the key rather than rewriting stored config on an
unrelated edit.
The 01/U-6 knob-inertness guard carried an explicit carve-out admitting RecycleIntervalSeconds was
dormant and out of scope; that carve-out is now gone, so the expected set is literally what the
test's name claims.
Note: Host.IntegrationTests has 2 failures (DriverProbeRegistrationTests.is_idempotent,
PrimaryGateFailoverTests) — verified pre-existing by reproducing both on clean master dc9d947b.

EnsureTags hook, the GatewayAlarmHistorianWriter SendEvent path + ReadEvents
dependency on gateway RuntimeDb:EventReadsEnabled=true, gateway-side

ServiceHosting.md, DriverLifecycle.md, drivers/README.md, Uns.md, VirtualTags.md,
AlarmTracking.md, Client.UI.md, README.md, TestConnectProbes.md): retire the
Wonderware historian backend from current-backend descriptions; fix the stale
ServerHistorian/AlarmHistorian config tables (now gateway shape); convert
drivers/Historian.Wonderware.md to a retired stub pointing at the gateway.
