Read-only live gate on Elma presses Z35474 (TC3 3.1.4024) and Z34834 (TC2 2.11):
- Sum-read: every chunk came back BadCommunicationError. Beckhoff's
SumRead(IList<IgIoSumReadEntity>) ctor casts to IList<SumDataEntity>, which
throws InvalidCastException for a List<> (only an array survives via
covariance). The fake-client tests never built a real SumRead. New
AdsTwinCATClient.CreateSumRead passes an array; TwinCATSumReadConstructionTests
pins it (red on the List form) plus a falsifiability control on the library.
After the fix: 59 tags, status identical everywhere, values identical on every
non-moving tag, ~0.35-0.66 s vs ~2.7 s per poll; TC2 CE 2.11 answers sum reads.
- An unexpected sum chunk failure now logs one Warning per device (it was
invisible: the health message was overwritten by the next good read).
- Diagnostics: TC2 has no TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList; fall back to .SYSTEMINFO /
.SYSTEMTASKINFOARR[1] once the TC3 name answers not-found (live: all six keys).
- #612 browse: Flat verified on TC3 (10,770 leaves; VirtualTree 1,459 strict
subset) — comment and docs updated, no load-mode option needed.

Strict width+kind eligibility for sum-batched scalars (others read singly); latch only on ADS
1793/1794, split 1792/1797/1798 without latching; 32 KiB per-command budget and 500-item ceiling;
short sum response handled per item. Diagnostics: opt-in diagnosticsEnabled (default off), reuse the
probe's ReadState, sample after the host-state transition, JitterMs renamed HeadroomMs, compact
per-device line so many devices fit the 16-entry cap, unavailable-symbol latch cleared on reconnect.
AdminUI: min/max on sum-read max, diagnostics checkbox. Pure planner extracted and unit-tested.

Sum-read (#310): batches a poll's reads per device into sum commands capped at sumReadMaxItems,
per-item ADS errors mapped per tag, falls back to individual reads when the target refuses the
command. Diagnostics (#314): ADS state, app name, online-change count, task cycle/exec/jitter via
IDriverDiagnostics. Re-implemented against the current raw-byte read path (stranded auto/driver-gaps
commits predate it). Sum-write not ported. Unit tests only; live gate pending a route.

Catch-all commit for pending work on the task-galaxy-e2e branch that
wasn't part of the FOCAS migration. Grouping by topic so future per-topic
commits can be cherry-picked if needed.

E2E scripts (shared infrastructure)
- scripts/e2e/README.md + _common.ps1 + test-all.ps1: shared helpers + the
all-drivers test-all runner.
- scripts/e2e/test-opcuaclient.ps1: OPC UA Client e2e runner.
Docs
- docs/v2/implementation/phase-6-{1,2,3,4}*.md + exit-gate-phase-{3,7}.md:
phase-gate + implementation doc updates.
- docs/v2/plan.md: top-level plan refresh.

Two orphan FOCAS docs remain on disk but deliberately unstaged —
docs/v2/focas-deployment.md and docs/v2/implementation/focas-simulator-plan.md
describe the now-retired Tier-C topology and should either be rewritten
or deleted in a follow-up.
