#570
- STRING: the built-in 88-byte Logix STRING holds 82 characters (LEN + DATA[82] + 2 pad), not 84; the
write still sends the whole 88-byte structure and a read never decodes the pad as characters.
- Mistype churn: a type refusal (CIP 0xFF/0x2107) on the existence read no longer throws from
InitializeAsync, so the runtime is not disposed/re-created (and re-Forward-Opened) every poll; the driver
also keeps a runtime that throws TypeMismatch from init and records the device as reachable.
- Malformed tag name: a TagPath that does not parse, or a name the CIP symbolic encoder refuses (now also
non-ASCII, empty member, >255-char member, unterminated subscript), is AbCipTagConfigurationException ->
per-tag BadConfigurationError (named const in AbCipStatusMapper), warned once, never feeding the device
backoff or health; siblings keep reading. A malformed probe tag no longer feeds the backoff either.
- Micro800 BYTE/WORD/LWORD (0xD1/0xD2/0xD4) are type-checked as integers of their width: REAL/LREAL or a
narrower integer over LWORD is TypeMismatch, not decoded garbage.
#579
- ConnectionLease.ReleaseInBackground: one non-blocking release shape for both native AB runtimes. The
AbCip runtime's Dispose no longer waits up to 2 s under the per-tag lock; the pool still registers the
close synchronously so a re-create cannot overlap it. Offline soak tests (25 cycles, AbCip + AbLegacy)
prove no leaked connection; FakeEipServer gains OpenConnections.

#572: listing continues at max(instance in page)+1 (no ascending-order assumption, no-progress guard kept);
browsePageDelayMs (default 5 ms) paces pages; DiscoverAsync reads templates through one batch reader
(IAbCipTemplateReaderFactory.CreateBatch) holding one lease.
#575: differential harness reports a same-status template refusal as an equal refusal; offline test pins the
open-attempt budget without relying on the abort ending the phase.

A native TypeMismatch (read status, write gate, or CIP 0xFF/0x2107) used
to evict the runtime and degrade health on every poll; for a sole lease
holder that meant Forward Close + Forward Open per poll, and an all-
mismatched driver tripped the comms-loss watchdog. It now reports
BadTypeMismatch, keeps the handle, leaves health alone and warns once per
tag per instance — reads, whole-UDT reads and writes, plus the libplctag
width check. Tests (red against the pre-fix driver): single create over N
polls, unchanged health, one warning, and one Forward Open / zero Forward
Close over the real native runtime against FakeCipTarget. AbLegacy has no
TypeMismatch path (its native runtime has no type check).

The old AdminUI cannot author the per-driver transport key (#576), so the
'pin before upgrading' recipe had no working path. A node-level appsetting
(env Drivers__AbCip__DefaultTransport) now supplies the default for AbCip
drivers with no key: explicit key > node default > compiled Native. Bound
and validated unconditionally (bad value fails host start); the driver
factory and the Test Connect probe both read it so they agree. AbCip.md
upgrade recipe rewritten around the key; Configuration.md documents it.
Also documents first-wins for AllowPacking/probe and host-alias throttles
(final review M6) and moves the status-bit note out of AbCip.md (M5).

On a wire the native PCCC path is proven only for N-file reads/writes and
one F8 read (ab_server). An absent transport key now resolves to Libplctag
for every family; explicit Native still wins and still warns once per
instance on PLC-5/LogixPccc. AdminUI dropdown, CLI help, evidence claims
(PcccFileType, AbLegacy.md wire-evidence table, release note) corrected:
S:0 (default probe) and B/T/C/R/S/L/ST/A/O/I are unverified natively.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ef2ozxS7QPanGT8uoATbTe
Native is the default, so a locally refused write must not look like a comms fault.
- AbLegacy: an AbTransportException with AbStatus.Unsupported (status-bit sub-element writes, PLC-5
non-N reads, all PLC-5 writes; libplctag's ErrorUnsupported maps here too) now returns
BadNotSupported on both the read and the write path (incl. the bit-RMW path). The tag handle is
not evicted and driver health is not touched. A native runtime whose init read is refused locally
is CACHED rather than disposed, so a poll of a refused tag does not re-create (and re-lease the
pooled connection) every cycle.
- AbCip: the same mapping on the write path and both read paths (single + whole-UDT).
- Uses the existing named BadNotSupported constants (StatusCodeParityTests guard).
- Tests (falsified by disabling the mapping, and separately the keep-on-refusal): status-bit
writes and PLC-5 read/write through the driver over the native runtime — BadNotSupported, zero
wire requests, one create, health unchanged; AbCip refused read/write via a refusing fake plus a
control that a non-refusal failure still evicts and degrades.
- Docs/CLAUDE.md: BadNotSupported; #571 known-gap wording removed.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01Ef2ozxS7QPanGT8uoATbTe
- I1: the upgrade restart itself moves every no-key AbCip/AbLegacy driver to Native (every process
start constructs drivers, incl. boot-from-cache). Docs + CLAUDE.md now say so and tell operators
to set "transport": "Libplctag" BEFORE upgrading (older builds ignore the unknown key).
- I2: AbLegacy release note leads with the status-bit write refusal (T4:0.DN, C5:0.CU, R6:0.EN, ...)
on defaulted SLC/MicroLogix drivers and the fallback. The real client status is
BadCommunicationError, not BadNotSupported (the driver's write catch-all maps the runtime's
AbTransportException like any transport failure, as #571 does for PLC-5), with handle eviction
and Degraded health; pinned by a driver-level test (no 0xAA write on the wire, with a positive
control). ST string byte order stated as unverified. Also corrects the docs' "T4:0/DN" examples:
the driver's address grammar is "T4:0.DN" ("/DN" is a malformed address).
- I3: DriverProbeHandshakeE2eTests' two AbCip probe tests are a [Theory] over Native and
Libplctag. Run against ab_server controllogix: all 4 rows pass with identical exact messages.
- M1: documented (docs + resolver XML doc): the AdminUI merges only the probed device, so a
mixed-family defaulted AbLegacy driver can probe Native while running Libplctag.
- M2: factory ParseEnum rejects undefined integer strings ("7") via Enum.IsDefined (both drivers).
- M3: AbCip driver-level bad value reads "AB CIP config in '<id>' has unknown Transport ..."; the
named constant is gone (tagName: null now means driver-level).
- M4: the explicit-Native limited-family Warning is once per instance, not per (re)init.
- Nit: EffectiveTransport docs note that injected factories bypass it.

Task 22 (spec section 8 P5), with the controller rulings that exclude PLC-5 and LogixPccc.
- Transport is nullable on both option records; null (key absent) means "use the default" and is
never serialized. Factory DTO parse: absent -> null; a bad value still fails via ParseEnum.
- One resolver per driver (AbCipTransportResolver / AbLegacyTransportResolver), used by the driver
constructor, the Test Connect probe and (through the driver) the CLI.
AbCip: null -> Native. AbLegacy: null -> Native unless any device is Plc5 or LogixPccc, then the
whole driver resolves to Libplctag. Explicit values always win; explicit Native with a
Plc5/LogixPccc device logs one Warning at init.
- Init log shows configured vs effective, e.g. transport=Native (default).
- AdminUI forms: "Default (...)" / "Native (managed)" / "libplctag (fallback)". Default omits the
key on save (reverses Task 19's explicit re-emit, which would have pinned every edited driver).
- CLIs: --transport default|native|libplctag, default "default" via the resolver, so
--plc-type Plc5 with no --transport runs libplctag.
- Tests pinned to Libplctag where a default-path runtime was created: found by instrumenting the
native factories with the current xUnit test name (one unit test, AbLegacyReinitConfigAdoption;
plus the two fixture-gated AbCip probe E2E tests whose exact messages were proven on libplctag).
TransportMatrix and the differential harness already pass explicit transports.
- Switch/resolver/CLI/form tests are falsified by mutating the resolver (default -> Libplctag,
exclusion removed, AbLegacy default -> Libplctag): each mutation turns them red.
- Replaces the inline role-name literal in AbCipDriverFactoryExtensions' ParseEnum call with a named
constant; RoleAuthorityGuardTests was already red on the base commit for that line.
- Docs: AbCip.md / AbLegacy.md default + release note; CLAUDE.md AB section.

The 5069-L3x supports the Large open, as the press proved. The narrow/refusing case is a pre-v20 1769-L3x or a bridge. AbCipDeviceOptions.ConnectionSize: the native transport honours it on the wire; libplctag ignores it.

Removes the 'use UseNativeNotifications=false for arrays' workaround and
documents the raw-bytes array model shared by poll and notification: element
checks, STRING arrays, multi-dim flattening, 0-based publication, leading
sub-range for a shorter arrayLength, refusals (struct/UDT arrays, too long,
scalar over array), the 128 KiB native cap (BadOutOfRange), the bit-path fix,
and the 2026-10-07 read-only live gate on Z33856 / Z33733.
Found by the read-only live gate against the TwinCAT 2.11 Elma cleaners
Z33856 / Z33733:
- The Beckhoff library reports a TC2 dotted MEMBER symbol's ByteSize as if the
PLC's byte count were a bit count (STRING(80) -> 11, INT -> 1, UDINT -> 1)
while DataType.ByteSize is right (81/2/4, raw SYM_INFOBYNAMEEX says 81). The
previous commit's typeof(byte[]) read sliced by the symbol size, so
.OPC_MACHINEDATA.PROCESSSTATUS read "ready for o" at Good; the notification
width check would also have refused every numeric member. The shape now takes
the resolved type's size, and string reads go by index group/offset (or a
fresh handle for 0xF005) at that width.
- P_INITINPUT_ACTION.SLOTID is "STRING(20) (VAR_IN_OUT)" - a 4-byte reference -
but resolves to a plain STRING(20); a String tag read 21 bytes at the pointer
as text at Good. The symbol's own VAR_IN_OUT marker now classifies it
NonScalar -> BadTypeMismatch.
FOCAS.md: positions scale from each block's own base/exponent and
PositionDecimalPlaces is only the scale-less fallback; cnc_getfigure is gone;
Spindle Load/MotorSpeedPct are Float64 percentages (MaxRpm renamed); program
fields the CNC does not report read BadNoData; the #548 Makino 'AA' duplicates
were a 2-byte name decode (now AA6/AA7). New 'Wire decode corrections (2026-10)'
table lists each before/after with client-visible changes flagged, plus what
was deliberately not ported and why. Troubleshooting rows for BadNoData and
integer-macro BadTypeMismatch. Test-fixture doc follows the mock changes.
Reverses the conservative call from the previous commit at the user's direction,
and they were right: "surface it on a counter first" left the wire lying. An
MXAccess event can carry Good quality while its payload is a kind MxValueDecoder
has no mapping for, so the old behaviour published null-under-Good — which a
client cannot tell apart from a genuine null reading. A value the gateway DID
send would be consumed as a value it did not, with the only evidence in a log
nobody is tailing. Bad data is the honest wire representation of lost data.
BadTypeMismatch is an existing StatusCodeMap constant, deliberately reused rather
than written inline: StatusCodeParityTests finds status constants by reflecting
over Good/Uncertain/Bad-prefixed uint fields and checking them against the pinned
SDK, so an inline literal would be invisible to that guard (Gitea #497, where 16
wrong constants had accumulated across 6 drivers exactly this way).
Logging is now once per DISTINCT value kind rather than once per pump. The set is
bounded by the MxValue oneof enum so a broken producer still cannot flood, but a
second unrepresentable kind appearing later gets its own line — warn-once-per-pump
would have silently swallowed it, which is the same class of bug as the null this
commit fixes.
The test's fixture matters more than its assertion: the undecodable event carries
Quality = 192 (OPC DA Good), so a decoder that gave up silently would publish Good
and fail. Paired with a positive control — a decodable value at the same quality
must still publish Good — so it cannot be satisfied by a pump that marks
everything Bad. Falsified by reverting the status to Good: the test reds, and only
that test.
Verified: 331 Galaxy tests green, Core.Abstractions 298 (the parity guard),
solution builds 0 errors. Docs corrected in the two places that recorded the old
decision as deliberate.
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.
IWritable shipped behind write.enabled and docs/drivers/MTConnect.md told the operator to
set it, but MTConnectDriverForm — the only editor DriverFormMaps maps for this type, with
no raw-JSON escape hatch and no driver-instance API — exposed no write section, so the
documented enablement path was a hand edit of DriverInstance.DriverConfig in the config DB.
- Write-back section: switch + form text stating it is observation injection, that the
Agent's AllowPut is an independent second gate, and that it does not by itself make a
node writable over OPC UA (Tag.AccessLevel still composes CurrentWrite).
- Write added to the mirrored MTConnectConfigDto and to the form model, written in BOTH
states — an omitted block would leave a previously-authored true standing, so the switch
could never turn writing off again.
- The false 'MTConnect is read-only' header comment is gone; the doc names the new section.
No bUnit here, so the model/serialization seam is unit-tested both sides: the AdminUI test
pins the emitted bytes, and MTConnectFactoryTests parses that same document and asserts
MTConnectDriverOptions.Write.Enabled. Live page verification remains a rig step.
The two value-bearing fields were read asymmetrically and nothing said why.
whereValue went through ReadScalar (string/number/boolean — the design doc's own
wide-row example authors it as the number 7); keyValue went through the string-only
ReadString, so a numerically-authored key refused the tag outright. Nothing downstream
justified the split: both are BOUND as DbParameters and both are matched back as text —
SqlPollReader.IndexByKey stringifies the key cell precisely so an authored key can face
an INTEGER key column.
The refusal was also mis-explained. Inspect branched on ReadString(root, "keyValue") is
null, so a numerically-authored key drew "Sql KeyValue tag has no 'keyValue'" — telling
the operator the field is missing when it is right there in the blob, the #549 shape of
an authoring surface disagreeing with the runtime about WHY.
keyValue now uses ReadScalar; Inspect mirrors it with HasScalar and says what a usable
key is; SqlTagConfigModel loads it with the shared TagConfigJson.GetScalarText (which
also replaces SqlRowSelectorModel's private copy), so the editor is not left stricter
than the parser. An object/array/null key is still refused. docs/drivers/Sql.md updated.
RED first: 4 failing in Driver.Sql.Tests.
PreferredTimestampColumn nominated the first column mapping to DriverDataType
.DateTime, and that set includes date-only types (SQL Server / PostgreSQL
'date'). A table whose first date/time column is a 'date' committed
rowSelector.topByTimestamp = <date>, making the wide-row read ORDER BY <date>
DESC LIMIT 1 - which ties for every row written that day, so 'the newest row'
became storage order among the ties.
Time-bearing candidates now outrank date-only ones; a date-only column is still
stated when it is all the table has, so such a table stays bindable. Oracle's
DATE carries a time of day and is exempt - pinned by a control dialect that
differs from the SQLite one only in the Provider it reports.
The comments and docs that described Driver.MTConnect-003 as live at HEAD would
have been wrong the moment 64be41d8 landed:
- code-reviews/Driver.MTConnect/findings.md — Driver.MTConnect-003 Resolved,
with the fixing commit; module open-finding count 5 -> 4.
- code-reviews/Driver.MTConnect.Contracts/findings.md — the one clause inside
Contracts-001's prose that asserted 003 was Open.
- docs/drivers/MTConnect.md — the coercion-precedence warning now states that a
browse-committed tag resolves at step 1 CARRYING the step-3 answer, and that
step 3 remains the rescue for a hand-authored / CSV / API blob with no type.
- MTConnectDriver.BuildBinding, MTConnectDataTypeInference and
MTConnectDriverOptions.RawTags remarks — same correction, each keeping a short
historical note of what the defect was so a reader meeting the old blobs still
understands them.
Comment-only in src; the driver suite (538) and AdminUI suite (1474) re-run green.
Findings from the per-module review of Driver.Mqtt at b990adae
(code-reviews/Driver.Mqtt/findings.md records all ten; these are the fixed
ones).
Driver.Mqtt-001 (High) — MqttSubscriptionManager._subscribedTopics is a claim
about the broker session it established filters on, and AttachTo never cleared
it, but the manager OUTLIVES a session rebuild (AdoptOptions keeps it whenever
the ingest identity is unchanged). After a driver-host reconnect
(ShutdownAsync + InitializeAsync, the #527 watchdog's retry) or a
ReinitializeAsync that only changed the endpoint/credentials, the host's
re-subscribe resolved an empty pending set, sent no SUBSCRIBE at all, and left
the driver Connected/Healthy on a session carrying ZERO subscriptions — no
error, no Bad status, values frozen until the new session happened to drop.
AttachTo now forgets them, mirroring SparkplugIngestor.AttachTo's reset.
Driver.Mqtt-002 (High) — InitializeCoreAsync published _connection and
_primaryHost over whatever the driver already held, so a second initialize
stranded a connected, self-supervising broker session (plus a second Sparkplug
primary-host claim) that no later dispose could reach. Reachable without any
teardown of ours via DriverInstanceActor.AdoptConfigDuringInit. Now tears down
first, under the gate both callers already hold.
Driver.Mqtt-003 (Medium) — connectTimeoutSeconds is [Range]-annotated but
unvalidated on the runtime path; 0 makes every deadline fire immediately and a
negative value throws ArgumentOutOfRangeException out of ShutdownAsync and
DisposeAsync. Normalized once, at the seam every options instance passes.
Also: ShutdownAsync keeps the live last-message instant (-004), three usings
left behind by #512 removed (-005), stale remarks corrected (-009, -010), and
docs/drivers/Mqtt.md now distinguishes the two kinds of reconnect.
Tests 708 -> 713. All three regression tests were confirmed to fail against
the un-fixed code, with two controls that pass in either state.
Driver.Sql-001 (Medium): SqlCatalogLoader.ReadDefaultSchemaAsync documented a
fallback to the sole visible schema when the server reports no default schema and
did not implement it, so a login with no DEFAULT_SCHEMA (or a Postgres search_path
that resolves to nothing) rejected EVERY unqualified authored table at the catalog
gate — a whole-driver BadNodeIdUnknown outage against a healthy database. Fixed;
SqlCatalogDefaultSchemaTests written red first, with a control proving the
ambiguous multi-schema case still refuses to guess.
Driver.Sql-003 (Medium): docs/drivers/Sql.md spelled the WideRow row selector at
the top level, but the parser reads those keys only inside a nested rowSelector —
a tag authored from the doc is refused and reads BadNodeIdUnknown (the #552 class,
via the documentation). Also removed the documented-but-nonexistent pollIntervalMs
per-tag field.
Driver.Sql-007 (Low): dropped the unused Microsoft.Data.SqlClient PackageReference
left behind by the .Dialect extraction (#526).
Open: 002 (no IN-list chunking vs the 2100/1000 provider bind caps), 004, 005, 006,
008, 009, 010.
Driver.MTConnect-001 (Medium): StreamVerdict.Reopen reset the reconnect ladder
unconditionally. The InvalidDataException catch that routes an Agent OUT_OF_RANGE
to a /current re-baseline also catches an unparseable chunk and an over-sized
multipart part - neither of which a re-baseline can resolve - so the pump reopened
and failed with no delay at any point: two HTTP requests and one Warning per
iteration, forever. The Reopen arm now uses the same discriminator the transient
arm does (did THIS connection deliver a chunk?), so a buffer roll behind a working
stream still reopens instantly while a re-baseline that resolved nothing advances
BackoffFor.
Driver.MTConnect-002 (Medium): MTConnectDriverProbe requested {AgentUri}/probe
while MTConnectAgentClient requests {AgentUri}/{DeviceName}/probe, so a mistyped or
since-renamed deviceName showed GREEN on Test Connect and then Faulted the driver
at InitializeAsync (an unknown device path answers MTConnectError under HTTP 200).
The probe's minimal DTO now reads deviceName - the rule is 'which keys compose the
URL', not 'which keys are cheap to read'.
Driver.MTConnect-008 (Low): corrected two stale claims that a since-changed
RawBrowseCommitMapper invalidated (see Driver.MTConnect-003, which remains open and
belongs in AdminUI), and made DiscoverAsync log the options snapshot it
deliberately read once instead of the field.
Tests: 538 pass (534 base + 4 new, each red before its fix); AdminUI.Tests 1466 pass.
`RawBrowseCommitMapper.BuildSqlTagConfig` emitted a WideRow blob carrying only
table + columnName. A wide-row tag must also say WHICH row it reads, so both
`SqlEquipmentTagParser` (the runtime authority) and `SqlTagConfigModel.Validate`
(the authoring gate) refused it — a browse-committed Sql tag was never readable,
first silently as BadNodeIdUnknown and, since #551 put the gate on the import,
loudly at commit.
`SqlBrowseSession` now states a fourth address field: the table's preferred
date/time-typed column, computed from the columns its attributes call ALREADY
read (no extra catalog round-trip). Candidacy is decided by
`ISqlDialect.MapColumnType` reporting `DriverDataType.DateTime` — never by column
name, which would order a wide-row read by a string column that merely looks like
a timestamp. Multiple candidates tie-break on FIRST IN CATALOG ORDER (every
dialect's column SQL orders by ordinal position), so the pick is stable across
calls and servers; it is a visible, editable default the typed editor round-trips.
No candidate (a table with no date/time column) is an operator-actionable refusal,
not an invented selector: the only remaining selector is a whereColumn/whereValue
pair whose value is data, not schema, so `DescribeUncommittableLeaf` refuses that
leaf by name, names the table, and points at the tag editor.
The session and the mapper now agree via `SqlBrowseAddressFields` constants rather
than two independently spelled string literals — a disagreement there is silent,
and is exactly the shape this defect had.
`RawTagConfigGateTests`' Sql leg flips from "records the gap" to "browse-commit
output passes the gate", with the no-candidate case pinned as its own test.
