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.

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.

- AbCip/AbLegacy driver forms gain a Transport InputSelect; FromOptions/ToOptions now carry
Transport, so saving any other field no longer silently reverts Native to libplctag.
- Both drivers log the constructed transport once per init.
- AbCip factory now takes the host ILoggerFactory (it ran on NullLogger in production, hiding
every AbCip log line); DriverFactoryBootstrap passes it.
- Gate results: AdminUI /run (T19) native, inverted (dead port) and libplctag legs.
Sweep task 5 (Shared/Drivers + Acls):
- btn-group the Save/Cancel pair in DriverFormShell (all 13 driver forms),
CollectionEditor foot + per-row Edit/Delete, DriverConfigModal /
DeviceModal / DriverTagPicker / AclScopePickerModal feet,
DriverStatusPanel Reconnect+Restart and its inline restart confirm,
and the Refresh+Close browse toolbars on the FOCAS/AbCip/TwinCAT pickers.
- Replace the no-op inline border-color:var(--alert) tint with .notice-alert
in DriverFormShell, DriverConfigModal, DeviceModal, MqttDriverForm,
MTConnectDriverForm, MqttDeviceForm.
- Replace inline style="width:18px" expander sizing with .tree-twist in
DriverBrowseTree and AclScopeTree.
Markup only — every @onclick, binding, disabled and arm->confirm flow is
unchanged.
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 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.
Authoring FOCAS tags through /raw -> Browse device... produced tags the driver
could never read. Every committed tag read BadNodeIdUnknown forever, and the
failure was silent end to end: the AdminUI accepted it, the deploy gate sealed
green, and the driver reported Healthy with 0 errors while ignoring the tags.
Net effect: the whole fixed-tree surface could not be published through any v3
authoring path. Found cutting wonder-app-vd03 over to v3 against a real Makino
Pro 5 / Fanuc 30i, where 0 of 20 committed tags read while two hand-authored
MACRO: tags on the same device read Good.
A captured browse leaf's id IS its DriverAttributeInfo.FullName, and the fixed
tree emitted "{deviceHost}/{path}" there -- an internal cache key, not an
address. Both authoring paths wrote it verbatim into TagConfig.address, and
FocasAddress.TryParse accepts no such form, so the driver skipped the tags at
init.
Fixed at the emitter rather than by stripping the host at commit, which fixes
the browse-commit flow and the manual picker's tree-select together and leaves
one canonical address form:
- FocasAddress gains a fourth kind, FIXED:<path>, and moves to Contracts so the
AdminUI and ControlPlane can parse without referencing the runtime driver
(#526). A FIXED: read is served from the fixed-tree snapshot the poll loop
already maintains -- no area read, no connection. Writes refuse: nothing in
that tree is a writable location on the CNC.
- The address carries no device. A tag's device comes from its Device row, and
a second routing channel for one fact is what created this defect.
- An authored FIXED: tag arms the fixed-tree poll loop by itself. Enabled
defaults false and the browser force-enables it only for a browse, so the
operator would otherwise browse, commit, deploy, and land on a driver whose
loop never starts -- every tag Bad with a correct address.
- Fixed-tree values are now dated from the last answered poll and go
BadCommunicationError once it is stale (8 cadences, floored at 30s). The poll
loop swallows a failed tick by design, so a dead CNC would otherwise serve its
last snapshot as Good indefinitely -- harmless while nothing could bind to the
tree, not harmless now.
Guardrails, so this class cannot recur silently:
- FocasTagConfigModel.Validate() runs the real parser instead of a non-empty
check, and FocasTagDefinitionFactory.Inspect() warns at the deploy gate, which
covers CSV/API config that never touches the modal.
- The manual picker offered axis/spindle/program/status "parameter groups" --
none of which is a FOCAS addressing space -- and its own default value,
axis:5, was unusable. It now composes PMC / PARAM: / MACRO: through
FocasAddress, so what it emits is parseable by construction.
Tests assert addresses ROUND-TRIP through the parser rather than matching an
expected string: the previous FocasAddressBuilderTests pinned "axis:5" exactly,
which is how a green suite coexisted with a picker nobody could use. Verified
red-first against the old emitter. FOCAS 308, AdminUI 1095, ControlPlane 169,
Core 581 -- all pass, 0 warnings.
The remaining half of #540 -- a driver reporting Healthy/0 errors while
skipping tags at init -- is fleet-wide (eight drivers do this) and is filed
separately rather than patched per-driver.
`Driver.Sql.Browser` referenced the runtime `Driver.Sql` project. The AdminUI
references that browser, so the whole SQL driver runtime — and
`ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core` through it — sat in the AdminUI's build/deploy graph.
This is the same layering violation #512 removed from the MQTT browser, in a
second driver, and it is why #512's expected removal of `Core.dll` from the
AdminUI's output did not happen.
MEASURED, both directions, on a clean AdminUI build:
before: ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.dll + ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Sql.dll present
after: both absent
The old csproj comment's premise was sound and survives — the dialect's catalog
SQL *is* the browse engine, so it must be shared rather than duplicated. What
was wrong was the conclusion that sharing it required referencing the runtime
driver. `ISqlDialect`/`SqlServerDialect` depend on nothing in `Driver.Sql`, so
they move to a `.Dialect` leaf that both consume.
This is the `.Transport` shape, not the cheap one: `ISqlDialect` exposes
`DbProviderFactory` and `SqlServerDialect` returns `SqlClientFactory.Instance`,
so `.Contracts` (deliberately provider-free) cannot hold them. Assembly name is
`.Dialect`; the NAMESPACE stays `ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Sql`, matching the
`Driver.Mqtt.Transport` precedent — the extraction cost zero `using` changes.
Two dependencies the cut edge surfaced as the implicit ones they were:
- The AdminUI itself read `SqlDriver.DriverTypeName` in three places — the tag
editor map, the tag config validator, and the Sql address picker. All three
now read `DriverTypeNames.Sql`, which is exactly what that constant resolves
to and exactly the repoint `SqlDriverBrowser`'s own comment had deferred
until a factory was registered against the shared constant. One exists now.
- `SqlDriverFormContractTests` asserts the AdminUI form's emitted JSON against
the runtime factory that reads it, so it genuinely needs the runtime driver.
`AdminUI.Tests` now references it explicitly. A test project referencing a
runtime driver is fine — tests are not in the AdminUI's deploy graph.
New guard: `DriverBrowserLayeringTests` (Commons.Tests) scans the csproj graph
of every `*.Browser` project in the tree, transitively. It reads csproj files
rather than loaded assemblies because the cost is a build-graph cost — the
compiler emits no assembly reference for an unused `ProjectReference`, so
`MqttBrowserLayeringTests`' assembly-reference approach cannot see that case.
The two are complementary and each now points at the other.
Falsified three ways, each red then green again: the direct reference re-added
to the browser; the same reference one hop out via `.Dialect` (proving the walk
is really transitive); and both controls — browsers-discovered and
references-parsed — which exist so an empty discovery cannot pass the absence
assertion vacuously.
#526's claim that the reference "carries no comment at all" was wrong; it
carried a detailed one from the scaffold commit. Corrected on the issue and in
the design doc's project table, which had recorded the deviation as deliberate.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_015p7wGqy3YpZNCpDzTpGMKo
`ActAsPrimaryHost` was accepted by config and by the AdminUI form and did nothing but
log a warning. It now delivers the whole three-part contract or none of it: a retained
`ONLINE` on `spBv1.0/STATE/{hostId}`, a matching retained `OFFLINE` armed as the MQTT
Last Will, and an explicit `OFFLINE` on a clean stand-down.
**The claim is a dedicated connection, not a message.** A Will can only be registered in
the CONNECT packet — it cannot be added to a live session, changed, or withdrawn. So a
claim that is acquired and released at runtime cannot ride the long-lived ingest session.
`SparkplugPrimaryHost` opens its own connection (client id `{clientId}-spbhost`, forced
clean-session) when the node gains Primary and closes it when the node loses Primary; the
connection's lifetime *is* the claim, so every leg follows from its lifecycle. Ingest is
untouched by a role change — no dropped subscriptions, no lost birth cache, no data gap at
the Secondary->Primary transition.
**Primary-gated** (owner decision, recorded on the issue). Both pair nodes subscribe
independently, so an ungated claim means both claim the same host id — and the sharp
failure is not the two fighting over the retained STATE, it is that the SECONDARY's death
fires its Will and publishes OFFLINE while the Primary is healthy, stopping every edge node
in the group. Registering the Will only on whichever node is Primary at connect time fails
the other way: a node that later gains Primary would publish ONLINE with no Will behind it.
New seam: `IDriverPrimaryRoleSource` (`Core.Abstractions`) carrying the *data-plane* verdict
(`PrimaryGatePolicy.ShouldServiceAsPrimary`), not the alarm-drain verdict — an unknown role
with a driver peer present must deny. Registered unconditionally by `AddOtOpcUaRuntime`,
deliberately NOT alongside `IRedundancyRoleView`, which `AddAlarmHistorian` registers only
when that section is enabled: piggybacking would leave a pair with no alarm historian
falling back to "claim unconditionally". Polled on a 1s timer rather than evented — a
process singleton raising events at per-instance drivers outlives every driver it holds.
Accepted trade: a brief edge-visible OFFLINE window during failover. That is a genuine
state transition, not a glitch to hide.
Live-gated 5/5 against the Mosquitto fixture, including the Will leg — `AbandonForTests`
drops the socket with no DISCONNECT, because a clean disconnect makes the broker discard
the Will by protocol rule, so a test driven through `StopAsync` would observe the
stand-down OFFLINE and pass against an implementation that never armed a Will. Falsified:
removing the Will turns that leg and only that leg red.
Also corrects two stale claims found en route: the AdminUI form still said MQTT tags are
read-only (#508 shipped), and the driver doc still said nothing consumes `IRediscoverable`.

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.

A parity guard already existed for DriverTypeNames <-> the /raw driver picker,
but not for the two dispatch maps downstream, so a driver could be registered,
offered in the picker, and then have no config form. That is exactly what
happened to Calculation (G-1) and to Sql/MTConnect/Calculation on the device
modal (G-2) — both survived review because nothing could see them.
The maps had to become data first. A Razor @switch compiles into
BuildRenderTree's IL, so no test can enumerate its cases; the picker guard
works only because RawDriverTypeDialog keeps its data in a field the markup
enumerates. Both modals now render from DriverConfigFormMap / DeviceFormMap
through <DynamicComponent>, and being public those maps need none of the
picker test's BindingFlags.NonPublic fragility.
- G-1 CalculationDriverForm.razor — RunTimeout was unauthorable via the UI.
- G-2 Sql/MTConnect/Calculation declared single-connection rather than given
hollow device forms; each holds one connection at the driver level.
- G-3 DriverConfigModal's hardcoded "Galaxy or Mqtt" -> IsSingleConnection, so
Sql/MTConnect authors are no longer sent to a device form with no endpoint.
- G-4 DriverFormMapParityTests (5, both directions) + DriverDispatchMapParityTests.
- G-5 CsvColumnMap entries for Sql, Mqtt, MTConnect.
- G-6 RawBrowseCommitMapper Sql branch — and the browser end, which the audit
missed: SqlBrowseSession emitted NO AddressFields, so a browsed leaf carried
only a column name, and a column alone cannot address a Sql tag. It now
travels schema/table/column and the mapper builds a WideRow config from them.
A branch alone would have produced a half-built blob.
Two findings while writing the guards. The G-6 test showed Modbus and
Calculation also hit the generic address fallback — correctly, as neither is
browsable — so it asserts the fall-through set EQUALS a documented
non-browsable list in both directions; a one-way check would let a newly
browsable driver be quietly added to the exclusion list. And
TagConfigDriverTypeNameGuardTests was hollow: it enumerated a hand-written
TheoryData that had already drifted (omitting Galaxy, Sql and Mqtt), guarding
renames but not gaps. Now enumerated from the map with a coverage test facing
the other way.
Live-verified on docker-dev, since this repo has no bUnit and no unit test
reaches Blazor parameter binding: opened Calculation's config (previously "No
typed config form"), typed 3500, saved, reopened — the value persisted, so the
DynamicComponent two-way binding round-trips. Sql's form renders fully and now
reads "This driver holds a single connection, authored above".
AdminUI.Tests 930 passed.
An MTConnect driver instance could not be authored at all: RawDriverTypeDialog
(the only DriverInstance creation surface) offered a hardcoded 9-entry list
without it, and DriverConfigModal's default: branch renders a warning with no
raw-JSON fallback — so even a hand-inserted row could not be configured and
DriverConfig stayed "{}", on which ParseOptions throws "missing required
AgentUri".
Adds the typed MTConnectDriverForm (the consistent sibling pattern) covering
agentUri / deviceName / the four polling knobs / probe / reconnect, wires the
dispatch case, and offers the type in the dialog.
- All decisions live in the static MTConnectDriverForm.BuildConfigJson +
MTConnectFormModel (plain C#), because this project has no bUnit.
- The wire shape mirrors the driver's private MTConnectDriverConfigDto, NOT
MTConnectDriverOptions: the latter's TimeSpan probe knobs would serialise as
"00:00:05" and never bind to the driver's integer intervalMs.
- arch-review 01/S-6: a non-positive timing knob is REMOVED from the document
rather than written, so ParseOptions substitutes the driver's own positive
default instead of the driver faulting at Initialize on RequirePositive.
Removal (not just skipping) also stops a stale positive value surviving and
disagreeing with what the form shows.
- Unknown top-level keys survive a load/save, so the driver's hand-authored
tags[] surface is not silently deleted by opening the form.
- _jsonOpts carries JsonStringEnumConverter, satisfying the
DriverPageJsonConverterTests fleet guard properly rather than by exemption.
New RawDriverTypeDialogCoverageTests resolves the offered set through
DriverTypeNames.All, so the next registered driver fails here until the dialog
offers it.
Wave 1 of the driver-expansion program. The branch was complete and live-gated but
had never been merged; it sat 15 commits ahead and 50 behind master.
Purely additive behind the existing IModbusTransport seam — the application protocol
(function codes, codecs, planner, coalescing, write path, probe, materialisation,
HistoryRead) is identical across TCP and RTU; only the wire framing differs
([addr][PDU][CRC-16], no MBAP, no TxId). Zero changes to codecs/planner/health.
Selected by a new Transport config field (ModbusTransportMode: Tcp | RtuOverTcp),
routed through ModbusTransportFactory (throws on unknown mode), with the string-enum
guard on options/DTO/factory and a Transport selector on the AdminUI Modbus form.
ModbusSocketLifecycle was extracted from ModbusTcpTransport (behaviour-preserving)
and is composed by both transports.
Descoped by design: direct-serial (System.IO.Ports) and Modbus ASCII — RTU buses are
reached exclusively via a serial->Ethernet gateway. No per-tag config changes; the
existing per-tag UnitId already makes a multi-drop bus work.
Re-validated against current master at merge time (the branch's own gate predates 50
commits of master): no overlapping files, clean merge, solution builds 0 errors, and
Modbus 344/344, Modbus.Addressing 161/161, AdminUI 740/740, Runtime 507/507,
Configuration 131/131 all pass. Confirmed the Transport selector is still reachable
through master's current authoring path (DriverConfigModal -> ModbusDriverForm), so
the branch's live /run gate result still applies.
Task 26 — the P2 milestone gate. Ran the live /run verification on an isolated
docker-dev rig (project otopcua-mqtt, ports 9210/4850-4851/14350, image built
from this branch) against the real Mosquitto TLS+auth broker and the C#
Sparkplug edge-node simulator on 10.100.0.35, and recorded the result.
The gate found three defects. Two are the same defect class the P1 gate found
twice — a hand-maintained AdminUI surface left behind by a driver-side feature —
and the third is a pre-existing cross-driver bug that only a Sparkplug flow
could surface.
1. CRITICAL, FIXED — MqttDriverForm still shipped its P1 Sparkplug PLACEHOLDER.
Switching Mode to SparkplugB rendered a "not available yet" notice and NO
Group ID field, so with Sparkplug ingest fully shipped there was still no
way to author a Sparkplug driver from the AdminUI at all. Sparkplug.GroupId
is the driver's entire subscription filter (spBv1.0/{GroupId}/#): blank ⇒
connected, Healthy, ingesting nothing. Now authors all five Sparkplug keys,
MERGES over the existing sub-object rather than replacing it (so a key a
newer driver adds inside it survives an older AdminUI), leaves it untouched
in Plain mode, and validates the group id as the topic segment it is.
Pinned by 8 MqttDriverFormModelTests cases, verified falsifiable — 8 RED
with the fix stubbed out.
2. PRE-EXISTING + CROSS-DRIVER, FIXED — every node label in the shared
DriverBrowseTree was an <a href="#">. In a Blazor Web App, blazor.web.js's
enhanced-navigation click interceptor resolves a bare "#" against
<base href="/">, so clicking ANY browse-tree node label navigated the whole
AdminUI to "/", tore down the circuit, and destroyed the hosting modal —
losing the browse session AND the tag selection. @onclick:preventDefault
does not help: it suppresses the browser's default action, not Blazor's own
interceptor. Labels are now <button type="button">. Dates to the component's
introduction (2026-05-28) and affects EVERY driver's picker; it surfaced
only now because choosing a rebirth scope is the first flow that requires
clicking a label rather than the ▶ toggle (always a button, always fine).
3. FIXED (mitigation) — the browse tree rendered exactly once, at open, and
never again, while OpenAsync returns as soon as the SUBSCRIBE is granted.
On Sparkplug that means it is almost always empty forever, because births
are never retained. Added a Refresh button that re-reads the root against
the SAME session (nothing reconnects, nothing observed is lost, the tag
selection is kept, only the armed rebirth scope is cleared).
Live gate result (all against the real broker + simulator, group OtOpcUaSim):
- driver authored end-to-end through the fixed MqttDriverForm; blob is
Mode:SparkplugB + Sparkplug.GroupId:OtOpcUaSim with enums as names
- browse: BROWSER OPEN chip, Sparkplug-only rebirth panel, tree renders
Group → EdgeNode → [Device] → Metric with the device folder Filler1 and
node-level metric leaves SIDE BY SIDE, and "Node Control/Rebirth" as ONE
leaf (the metric-name-is-not-a-topic-segment rule holding)
- rebirth: group scope names the group + the 32-node cap, Cancel published
NOTHING (simulator log unchanged); edge-node scope → "1 command published"
and the simulator logged "rebirth NCMD #1 received; republishing metadata";
group scope → "2 commands published", both edge nodes re-birthed; a device
and a metric both resolve UP to "edge node EdgeA"; the panel does NOT render
for a Plain MQTT device
- browse-commit wrote bindable tuples with no topic/address key —
{"groupId","edgeNodeId","metricName","deviceId"} for the device metric and
deviceId ABSENT (not blank) for the node-level one, datatypes inherited from
the birth (Int64 / Float)
- deployed (Sealed), and both nodes served live changing values through OPC UA
at the 2 s cadence — Good 0x00000000, no BadNodeIdUnknown
- death→STALE: stopping the simulator drove both nodes to 0x80000000 with an
empty value ~2 s later, and restarting it recovered them to Good on the new
birth (FillCount back to its birth-declared 1000, then counting)
- rediscovery fired exactly TWICE (once per authored scope: OtOpcUaSim/EdgeA
7 metrics, OtOpcUaSim/EdgeA/Filler1 3 metrics) and was then gated across
many subsequent births/rebirths — the anti-storm change gate working, and
EdgeB correctly filtered out as an unauthored scope
- tag editor: opens in SparkplugB (mode inference on reopen) with all four
descriptor fields populated; blank group → "A Sparkplug group ID is
required."; "Plant/1" rejected; "Node Control/Rebirth" ACCEPTED and saved
with the slash whole; dataType override persists and its key is ABSENT again
after selecting "(from birth certificate)"
Two things are NOT verified, and are recorded rather than claimed:
- Rediscovery is INERT in v3 and this is a platform gap, not an MQTT one:
nothing subscribes to IRediscoverable.OnRediscoveryNeeded and
DriverHostActor.HandleDiscoveredNodes hard-returns. A DBIRTH introducing a
metric does NOT change the OPC UA tree; redeploy. Verified from the driver's
log line only, exactly as far as it can be verified.
- A metric name containing "/" cannot be BROWSE-COMMITTED: the derived raw tag
Name is a RawPath segment and may not contain "/", so the spec-mandatory
"Node Control/Rebirth" is refused ("Row 3: Name must not contain '/'"). The
refusal is loud and all-or-nothing, never a silently mis-bound tag, and
Manual entry is the working path. Fixing it needs a name-sanitisation policy
with a collision answer, so it was recorded rather than guessed at.
Also left open + documented: an empty browse tree cannot arm a rebirth (the
scope comes from a tree click, and the session side already accepts a bare
{group}/{edgeNode} — only a UI path is missing); _canRebirth is captured at
browse-open; the tag editor injects the Plain-only payloadFormat key into a
Sparkplug blob (cosmetic — the factory routes on the tuple).
Suites: offline 1528 passed / 0 failed (581 Driver.Mqtt + 809 AdminUI + 138
Core.Abstractions); live 15/15 against the broker + simulator.
Docs: docs/drivers/Mqtt.md brought fully up to date for P2 (Sparkplug config
sub-object, both tag shapes, the ingest state machine, rediscovery, browse +
rebirth + Refresh, a Known-gaps table); Mqtt-Test-Fixture.md gains the simulator
and drops its "Sparkplug has no fixture" claims; infra/README.md §3 gains the
simulator row; CLAUDE.md gains the simulator endpoint facts; the tracking doc
marks MQTT/Sparkplug COMPLETE. docker-dev/docker-compose.mqtt.yml is the
isolated-rig overlay the gate ran on.

Two gaps the Task 23/24 review found, both blocking Task 26's live gate.
Gap 1 — browse-commit produced a silently dead MQTT tag. RawBrowseCommitMapper
had no `Mqtt` case, so a committed leaf fell through to the generic
`{"address": …}` key. Neither MqttTagDefinitionFactory entry point reads
`address`: the tag deployed clean and reported BadNodeIdUnknown forever, with
no signal at commit time. Predates Task 23 (Plain was affected too), but Task 23
built the Sparkplug metric tree precisely so an operator could browse and commit
a binding.
The address is a DESCRIPTOR, not a reference string, and it cannot be recovered
from the browse node id: `{group}/{node}[/{device}]::{metric}` where a metric
name legitimately contains `/` (`Node Control/Rebirth`) — the ambiguity
MetricSeparator's remarks already name. So the session STATES it, via a new
`AttributeInfo.AddressFields` seam, and the mapper reads it. Which keys are
emitted is also how the mapper learns Plain vs Sparkplug — the driver type
reaching it is just `Mqtt`, and the mode lives on the driver config. Key names
are single-sourced in the new `MqttTagConfigKeys` (producer, mapper, factory),
with the literals pinned by a test so a symmetric rename cannot silently unbind
already-persisted blobs. A leaf with no stated address is refused at commit in
words rather than committed dead.
Gap 2 — RequestRebirthAsync had no UI. Task 23 shipped it backend-only; Task 26
step 1 assumes the button, and Task 25's runbook notes the picker tree stays
empty until a birth lands, so it is the only way to fill it on demand. Added to
the /raw browse modal: scope = the clicked tree node (device/metric resolve up to
their edge node, group fans out and is refused whole past 32), an explicit
two-click confirm naming the resolved scope and its consequence, the outcome or
the refusal shown rather than swallowed. Offered only for a Sparkplug session
(new `IRebirthCapableBrowseSession.RebirthAvailable` — one session class serves
both modes, so a type test alone would draw a button that can only throw) and
only to a DriverOperator; the server-side gate remains the boundary.
Tests: MQTT 545 → 581, AdminUI 781 → 800. The round-trip tests feed the emitted
blob to the REAL factory and were falsified by mutating the emitted key name.

The P1 live gate had to insert MQTT driver config directly via SQL: DriverConfigModal and
DeviceModal both fell through to "No typed config form for driver type Mqtt" with no raw-JSON
fallback, so broker host/port/TLS/credentials were unauthorable from the AdminUI. Task 12 built
the *tag* editor; these are the driver + device surfaces.
MqttDriverForm authors the whole MqttDriverOptions connection surface (host/port/clientId,
TLS + CA pin, credentials, protocol version/clean-session/keep-alive, connect timeout, reconnect
backoffs, mode, maxPayloadBytes, and the Plain sub-object). The Sparkplug sub-object stays P2 —
a marked placeholder mirroring MqttTagConfigEditor's stub, with any existing sparkplug keys
preserved untouched.
The connection is authored on the DRIVER, not the device — unlike Modbus/S7/OpcUaClient and
contrary to what docs/drivers/Mqtt.md said. DriverDeviceConfigMerger merges a device's keys up
only when the driver has exactly ONE device, so a device-authored broker connection vanishes
silently the moment a second device is added. MqttDeviceForm is therefore informational (the
GalaxyDeviceForm shape) and round-trips DeviceConfig verbatim; it flags legacy connection keys
left on a device by a pre-form deployment, because those still win via merge-up.
Serialization goes through the ONE shared MqttJson.Options instance (Task 9's decision), never a
fifth per-form copy — pinned by an assertion that an ordinal-only reader CANNOT bind the emitted
blob, and by extending the fleet-wide DriverPageJsonConverterTests guard to resolve a form's
serializer from an explicit external-instance registry when it has no _jsonOpts field. Dropping
the converter from MqttJson.Options reddens 3 tests and leaves the symmetric round-trip green —
the Task 9 lesson, reproduced.
RawTags is stripped from the emitted blob (the deploy artifact owns it) and unknown top-level
keys survive a load->save. Validation mirrors the driver's own [Range] bounds inline, and
ToOptions() additionally clamps, so an ignored error still cannot persist a
connectTimeoutSeconds:0 driver-brick. A non-blank clientId raises the P1 live-gate warning
inline (fixed ids make redundant pair nodes evict each other while both report Healthy).
AdminUI 761/761 green (was 730), TWAE-clean; Driver.Mqtt 266/266 green.

The read-only Sql driver's runtime factory/probe and tag-side editors were
wired, but the AdminUI could not author the DRIVER: the /raw "New driver" type
list, the DriverConfigModal switch, and the legacy identity dropdown all omitted
Sql, and no SqlDriverForm existed. Live-driving the AdminUI surfaced this.
- Add SqlDriverForm.razor over the SqlDriverConfigDto shape: Provider
(SqlServer-only in v1), required connectionStringRef (an env-var NAME, not a
connection string — label is explicit), optional poll/operation/command
timeouts, maxConcurrentGroups, nullIsBad. Enums serialize by NAME via
JsonStringEnumConverter; a connection-string literal can never be authored
(no such field is collected); rawTags (composer-owned) + allowWrites (inert,
read-only v1) are never emitted.
- Wire Sql into DriverConfigModal switch, RawDriverTypeDialog type list, and
DriverIdentitySection legacy dropdown.
- Add SqlDriverFormContractTests: the exact JSON the form emits constructs a
driver through the real factory, missing connectionStringRef is rejected, and
provider round-trips as the "SqlServer" name (never an ordinal).

Register SqlDriverBrowser as an IDriverBrowser beside the OpcUaClient/Galaxy
lines, project-reference Driver.Sql.Browser, and add SqlAddressPickerBody.razor:
a DriverBrowseTree schema/table/column picker (DriverOperator-gated) with a
column attribute side-panel, manual-entry model/selector fields retained, that
composes the per-tag TagConfig blob (KeyValue / WideRow) matched to
SqlEquipmentTagParser. Pasted ad-hoc connection strings are session-only and
never persisted into the composed blob or driver config.

Browse device… on a /raw Device/TagGroup opens the discovery-browser modal
against the merged Driver+Device config and commits selected browse leaves as
raw Tag rows under the target, via IRawTreeService.ImportTagsAsync.
- RawBrowseModal.razor: two-tier browse gate (bespoke IDriverBrowser →
universal DiscoveryDriverBrowser via SupportsOnlineDiscovery → disabled),
merged config from LoadMergedProbeConfigAsync, multi-select over
DriverBrowseTree, opt-in 'create matching tag-groups' folder mirror,
commit via ImportTagsAsync.
- RawBrowseCommitMapper: pure leaf→RawTagImportRow mapper — DriverDataType→
OPC UA type, per-driver address field (nodeId/tagPath/symbolPath/address/
attributeRef), target-group + mirror path combine. Unit-tested (39 tests).
- DriverBrowseTree: additive multi-select mode (checkboxes + ancestor-path
callback), default off preserves single-select pickers.
- RawTree: OnBrowseDevice wired to the modal (Device + TagGroup menus).

Reviewer H1 (v3 regression): the endpoint→DeviceConfig split ADDED the endpoint to DeviceConfig but
the driver forms still serialized it into DriverConfig at defaults. Single-device worked only by an
STJ case-insensitive last-key-wins accident; a 2nd device on a single-top-level-Host driver (Modbus/S7)
silently reverted to the driver-form default (host=127.0.0.1). Fix: Modbus/S7/OpcUaClient driver-form
GetConfigJson strips the endpoint keys (host/port/unitId; host/port/rack/slot; scalar endpointUrl) from
the serialized channel config, leaving DeviceConfig as the sole source (OpcUaClient keeps its endpointUrls
failover list, which is driver-level policy).
Enum-serialization verified CLEAN fleet-wide; ImportTagsAsync all-or-nothing verified; RawTree wiring sound.
Deferred (documented in PR): H2 pre-existing Modbus/S7 form TimeSpan vs factory *Ms-int DTO mismatch (authored
durations dropped — predates v3); M1 CSV export drops non-columned alarm sub-keys; M2 blank flag column
clobbers a base-JSON isHistorized/isArray; M3 OpcUaClient device/driver endpoint precedence; L1 unused
LoadMergedProbeConfigAsync; L5 refresh collapses sibling expansion.

Extract the 8 typed driver pages into embeddable <Driver>DriverForm bodies
(channel/protocol config) and add per-driver <Driver>DeviceForm bodies
(connection endpoint -> Device.DeviceConfig, v3 endpoint split). New
DriverConfigModal + DeviceModal dispatch by DriverType (DriverTypeNames) for
the /raw tree; Test-connect inside DeviceModal builds the merged Driver+Device
config transiently via DriverDeviceConfigMerger. Routed pages now host the
form bodies and keep working. Round-trip + enum-serialization guard tests for
the Modbus driver form + Modbus device model; retargeted the existing
page-form serialization tests + the _jsonOpts converter guard to the forms.

Namespace entity + NamespaceKind retired; DriverInstance dropped NamespaceId;
Tag is raw-only (no EquipmentId/DriverInstanceId/FullName/FolderPath); driver
options replaced pre-declared Tags with RawTags. Stub the retired surfaces so
the AdminUI + Host build green; real Raw/UNS authoring arrives in v3 Batch 2/3.
- ClusterNamespaces/NamespaceEdit: bodies replaced with 'Namespaces retired' banner
- DriverIdentitySection: dropped Namespace dropdown + NamespaceId model field
- 8 driver pages: dropped Namespace binding; retired the pre-declared Tags editor
(replaced with a '/raw Batch 2' note); multi-device pages keep their Devices editor
- UnsTreeService: equipment-tag counts/list -> empty; Create/UpdateTag -> failure
result ('Tag authoring moved to the Raw tree (/raw) in v3 Batch 2'); Namespace/
driver-binding queries removed
- IScriptTagCatalog: project surviving Tag columns only (path from TagConfig FullName, else Name)
- OpcUaClientTagConfigEditor: rebind stale FullName -> model's NodeId
- ClusterDrivers: drop retired NamespaceId column
AdminUI + Host build 0/0. AdminUI.Tests / Host.IntegrationTests remain red (WP6).
Task 14/15/16: each picker body keeps its manual builder and appends a DriverOperator-gated
browse affordance (mirrors OpcUaClientAddressPickerBody) — Browse/Refresh/Close, DriverBrowseTree
over the universal DiscoveryDriverBrowser session, leaf-only commit (OnNodeSelected fires for
folders too), snapshot-at-open label, fire-and-forget close on dispose. _canBrowse evaluated once
in OnInitializedAsync (CanBrowse constructs a throwaway driver). FOCAS commits the leaf FullName
directly (the group/id builder can't reconstruct it). Editors pass DriverType + GetConfigJson
through. Razor-live-verified at Task 18.
Adds <summary>/<param>/<returns>/<inheritdoc> where missing and removes
project bookkeeping IDs (task/tracking refs) from shipped code comments,
so the docs read cleanly and CommentChecker is quiet except for known
false positives (PLC/protocol terms, event/IEqualityComparer inheritdoc).
Doc/comment-only; no logic changed; solution builds clean.
The HistorianGateway driver is now the sole historian read/write+alarm backend, so the
Wonderware sidecar projects are dead code. Removes the 5 Wonderware projects (driver,
.Client, .Client.Contracts, + their 2 test projects) from the solution and tree, and fully
retires the vestigial 'Historian.Wonderware' driver type (UI/probe-only; it had no driver
factory): the Host probe registration, the AdminUI driver-config surface (driver page,
tag-config editor/model/validator entry, address picker/builder, driver-type catalog +
dropdown + edit-router entries), and their tests. Prunes the now-unused Wonderware
connection fields (Host/Port/UseTls/ServerCertThumbprint/SharedSecret) from
AlarmHistorianOptions (keeping Enabled + the SQLite store-and-forward knobs) and refreshes
the stale XML docs that named Wonderware as the production backend.
