Phase 3 PR 76 -- OPC UA Client IHistoryProvider (HistoryRead passthrough). Driver now implements IHistoryProvider (Raw + Processed + AtTime); ReadEventsAsync deliberately inherits the interface default that throws NotSupportedException. ExecuteHistoryReadAsync is the shared wire path: parses the fullReference to NodeId, builds a HistoryReadValueIdCollection with one entry, calls Session.HistoryReadAsync(RequestHeader, ExtensionObject<details>, TimestampsToReturn.Both, releaseContinuationPoints:false, nodesToRead, ct), unwraps r.HistoryData ExtensionObject into the samples list, passes ContinuationPoint through. Each DataValue's upstream StatusCode + SourceTimestamp + ServerTimestamp preserved verbatim per driver-specs.md \u00A78 cascading-quality rule -- this matters especially for historical data where an interpolated / uncertain-quality sample must surface its true severity downstream, not a sanitized Good. SourceTimestamp=DateTime.MinValue guards map to null so downstream clients see 'source unknown' rather than an epoch-zero misread. ReadRawAsync builds ReadRawModifiedDetails with IsReadModified=false (raw, not modified-history), StartTime/EndTime, NumValuesPerNode=maxValuesPerNode, ReturnBounds=false (clients that want bounds request them via continuation handling). ReadProcessedAsync builds ReadProcessedDetails with ProcessingInterval in ms + AggregateType wrapping a single NodeId from MapAggregateToNodeId. MapAggregateToNodeId switches on HistoryAggregateType {Average, Minimum, Maximum, Total, Count} to the standard Part 13 ObjectIds.AggregateFunction_* NodeId -- future aggregate-type additions fail the switch with ArgumentOutOfRangeException so they can't silently slip through with a null NodeId and an opaque server-side BadAggregateNotSupported. ReadAtTimeAsync builds ReadAtTimeDetails with ReqTimes + UseSimpleBounds=true (returns boundary samples when an exact timestamp has no value -- the OPC UA Part 11 default). Malformed NodeId short-circuits to empty result without touching the wire, matching the ReadAsync / WriteAsync pattern. ReadEventsAsync stays at the interface-default NotSupportedException: the OPC UA call path (HistoryReadAsync with ReadEventDetails + EventFilter) needs an EventFilter SelectClauses spec which the current IHistoryProvider.ReadEventsAsync signature doesn't carry. Adding that would be an IHistoryProvider interface widening; out of scope for PR 76. Callers see BadHistoryOperationUnsupported on the OPC UA client which is the documented fallback. Name disambiguation: Core.Abstractions.HistoryReadResult and Opc.Ua.HistoryReadResult both exist; used fully-qualified Core.Abstractions.HistoryReadResult in return types + factory expressions. Shutdown unchanged -- history reads don't create persistent server-side resources, so no cleanup needed beyond the existing Session.CloseAsync. Unit tests (OpcUaClientHistoryTests, 7 facts): MapAggregateToNodeId theory covers all 5 aggregates; MapAggregateToNodeId_rejects_invalid_enum (defense against future enum addition silently passing through); Read{Raw,Processed,AtTime}Async_without_initialize_throws (RequireSession path); ReadEventsAsync_throws_NotSupportedException (locks in the intentional inheritance of the default). 78/78 OpcUaClient.Tests pass (67 prior + 11 new, -4 on the alarm suite moved into the events count). dotnet build clean. Final OPC UA Client capability surface: IDriver + ITagDiscovery + IReadable + IWritable + ISubscribable + IHostConnectivityProbe + IAlarmSource + IHistoryProvider -- 8 of 8 possible capabilities. Driver is feature-complete per driver-specs.md \u00A78.
