 The OPC UA `ConditionRefresh` service queues the current state of every retained condition back to the requesting monitored items. `DriverNodeManager` iterates the node manager's `AlarmConditionState` collection and queues each condition whose `Retain.Value == true` — matching the Part 9 requirement.
 
+## Alarm historian sink
+
+Distinct from the live `IAlarmSource` stream and the Part 9 `AlarmConditionState` materialization above, qualifying alarm transitions are **also** persisted to a durable event log for downstream AVEVA Historian ingestion. This is a separate subsystem from the `IHistoryProvider` capability used by `HistoryReadEvents` (see [HistoricalDataAccess.md](HistoricalDataAccess.md#alarm-event-history-vs-ihistoryprovider)): the sink is a *producer* path (server → Historian) that runs independently of any client HistoryRead call.
+
+### `IAlarmHistorianSink`
+
+`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.AlarmHistorian/IAlarmHistorianSink.cs` defines the intake contract:
+
+```csharp
+Task EnqueueAsync(AlarmHistorianEvent evt, CancellationToken cancellationToken);
+HistorianSinkStatus GetStatus();
+```
+
+`EnqueueAsync` is fire-and-forget from the producer's perspective — it must never block the emitting thread. The event payload (`AlarmHistorianEvent` — same file) is source-agnostic: `AlarmId`, `EquipmentPath`, `AlarmName`, `AlarmTypeName` (Part 9 subtype name), `Severity`, `EventKind` (free-form transition string — `Activated` / `Cleared` / `Acknowledged` / `Confirmed` / `Shelved` / …), `Message`, `User`, `Comment`, `TimestampUtc`.
+
+The sink scope is defined to span every alarm source (plan decision #15: scripted, Galaxy-native, AB CIP ALMD, any future `IAlarmSource`), gated per-alarm by a `HistorizeToAveva` toggle on the producer. Today only `Phase7EngineComposer.RouteToHistorianAsync` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/Phase7EngineComposer.cs`) is wired — it subscribes to `ScriptedAlarmEngine.OnEvent` and marshals each emission into `AlarmHistorianEvent`. Galaxy-native alarms continue to reach AVEVA Historian via the driver's direct `aahClientManaged` path and do not flow through the sink; the AB CIP ALMD path remains unwired pending a producer-side integration.
+
+### `SqliteStoreAndForwardSink`
+
+Default production implementation (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.AlarmHistorian/SqliteStoreAndForwardSink.cs`). A local SQLite queue absorbs every `EnqueueAsync` synchronously; a background `Timer` drains batches asynchronously to an `IAlarmHistorianWriter` so operator actions are never blocked on historian reachability.
+
+Queue schema (single table `Queue`): `RowId PK autoincrement`, `AlarmId`, `EnqueuedUtc`, `PayloadJson` (serialized `AlarmHistorianEvent`), `AttemptCount`, `LastAttemptUtc`, `LastError`, `DeadLettered` (bool), plus `IX_Queue_Drain (DeadLettered, RowId)`. Default capacity `1_000_000` non-dead-lettered rows; oldest rows evict with a WARN log past the cap.
+
+Drain cadence: `StartDrainLoop(tickInterval)` arms a periodic timer. `DrainOnceAsync` reads up to `batchSize` rows (default 100) in `RowId` order and forwards them through `IAlarmHistorianWriter.WriteBatchAsync`, which returns one `HistorianWriteOutcome` per row:
+
+| Outcome | Action |
+|---|---|
+| `Ack` | Row deleted. |
+| `PermanentFail` | Row flipped to `DeadLettered = 1` with reason. Peers in the batch retry independently. |
+| `RetryPlease` | `AttemptCount` bumped; row stays queued. Drain worker enters `BackingOff`. |
+
+Writer-side exceptions treat the whole batch as `RetryPlease`.
+
+Backoff ladder on `RetryPlease` (hard-coded): 1s → 2s → 5s → 15s → 60s cap. Reset to 0 on any batch with no retries. `CurrentBackoff` exposes the current step for instrumentation; the drain timer itself fires on `tickInterval`, so the ladder governs write cadence rather than timer period.
+
+Dead-letter retention defaults to 30 days (plan decision #21). `PurgeAgedDeadLetters` runs each drain pass and deletes rows whose `LastAttemptUtc` is past the cutoff. `RetryDeadLettered()` is an operator action that clears `DeadLettered` + resets `AttemptCount` on every dead-lettered row so they rejoin the main queue.
+
+### Composition and writer resolution
+
+`Phase7Composer.ResolveHistorianSink` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/Phase7Composer.cs`) scans the registered drivers for one that implements `IAlarmHistorianWriter`. Today that is `GalaxyProxyDriver` via `GalaxyHistorianWriter` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Galaxy.Proxy/Ipc/GalaxyHistorianWriter.cs`), which forwards batches over the Galaxy.Host pipe to the `aahClientManaged` alarm schema. When a writer is found, a `SqliteStoreAndForwardSink` is instantiated against `%ProgramData%/OtOpcUa/alarm-historian-queue.db` with a 2 s drain tick and the writer attached. When no driver provides a writer the fallback is the DI-registered `NullAlarmHistorianSink` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Program.cs`), which silently discards and reports `HistorianDrainState.Disabled`.
+
+### Status and observability
+
+`GetStatus()` returns `HistorianSinkStatus(QueueDepth, DeadLetterDepth, LastDrainUtc, LastSuccessUtc, LastError, DrainState)` — two `COUNT(*)` scalars plus last-drain telemetry. `DrainState` is one of `Disabled` / `Idle` / `Draining` / `BackingOff`.
+
+The Admin UI `/alarms/historian` page surfaces this through `HistorianDiagnosticsService` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Admin/Services/HistorianDiagnosticsService.cs`), which also exposes `TryRetryDeadLettered` — it calls through to `SqliteStoreAndForwardSink.RetryDeadLettered` when the live sink is the SQLite implementation and returns 0 otherwise.

+`PercentGood`, `Delta`, etc. See

+for the full list. Adding a new CLI shorthand is a one-line change in
+`HistoryReadCommand.ParseAggregateType` — file an issue if you need one
+exposed.
+
+#### Event-mode coverage
+
+Drivers that implement the filter-aware
+`IHistoryProvider.ReadEventsAsync(fullReference, EventHistoryRequest, ct)`
+overload (currently the OPC UA Client gateway driver — Galaxy keeps the
+fixed-field fallback) honour `EventFilter` SelectClauses and a `WhereClause`
+when the server-side history facade forwards them. The CLI does not yet
+expose a dedicated `--events` flag — clients that need filter-aware event
+history call `HistoryReadEvents` through their own SDK; the CLI's
+`historyread` command stays focused on the data-history (Raw / Processed /
+AtTime) path. Adding `--events` is tracked as a follow-up — the wire path
+on the driver side is in place (see
+[`docs/drivers/OpcUaClient.md`](drivers/OpcUaClient.md#historyread-events)).

+
+## Commands
+
+### `probe` — is the PLC up?
+
+```powershell
+# ControlLogix — read the canonical libplctag system tag
+otopcua-abcip-cli probe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t @raw_cpu_type --type DInt
+
+# Micro800 — point at a user-supplied global
+otopcua-abcip-cli probe -g ab://10.0.0.6/ -f Micro800 -t _SYSVA_CLOCK_HOUR --type DInt
+```
+
+### `read` — single Logix tag
+
+```powershell
+# Controller scope
+otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real
+
+# Program scope
+otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Program:Main.Counter" --type DInt
+
+# Array element
+otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Recipe[3]" --type Real
+
+# UDT member (dotted path)
+otopcua-abcip-cli read -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t "Motor01.Speed" --type Real
+```
+
+#### Diagnostic / system tags
+
+PR abcip-4.3 exposes five read-only diagnostic variables per device under
+`AbCip/<device>/_System/` in the OPC UA address space (see
+[AbCip-Operability §System tags](drivers/AbCip-Operability.md#system-tags--_system-folder)
+for the full table). These are not reachable through the AB CIP CLI — they
+live on the OPC UA server side, not the libplctag wire — so to read one,
+point the **OPC UA client** CLI at the running OtOpcUa server:
+
+```powershell
+# Read _ConnectionStatus for one device through the OPC UA server
+otopcua-client-cli read -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 \
+    -n "ns=2;s=AbCip/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/_System/_ConnectionStatus"
+```
+
+### `write` — single Logix tag
+
+Same shape as `read` plus `-v`. Values parse per `--type` using invariant
+culture. Booleans accept `true`/`false`/`1`/`0`/`yes`/`no`/`on`/`off`.
+Structure (UDT) writes need the member layout declared in a real driver config
+and are refused by the CLI.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-abcip-cli write -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -v 3.14
+otopcua-abcip-cli write -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t StartCommand --type Bool -v true
+```
+
+### `subscribe` — watch a tag until Ctrl+C
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-abcip-cli subscribe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -i 500
+```
+
+### `hsby-status` — which chassis is Active now?
+
+PR abcip-5.1 — read the role tag (`WallClockTime.SyncStatus` by default,
+`S:34` for legacy SLC500 / PLC-5 fronts) on a ControlLogix HSBY pair and
+print which chassis is currently Active. Requires `--partner`.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-abcip-cli hsby-status -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 --partner ab://10.0.0.6/1,0
+
+# Custom role tag (legacy fronts) and more samples
+otopcua-abcip-cli hsby-status -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 --partner ab://10.0.0.6/1,0 \
+    --role-tag S:34 --samples 5
+```
+
+| Flag | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `--role-tag` | `WallClockTime.SyncStatus` | Address of the role tag. Use `S:34` for SLC500 / PLC-5. |
+| `--samples` | `3` | Number of role-probe ticks to wait for before printing. |
+
+The output prints the resolved roles + the address of whichever chassis the
+driver currently considers Active. PR abcip-5.1 only **reports** the role —
+PR abcip-5.2 will land the routing change so reads / writes flow to the
+Active chassis automatically.
+
+See [AbCip-HSBY.md](drivers/AbCip-HSBY.md) for the role-tag detection matrix
++ active-resolution rules + the feature-flag gate.
+
+### `rebrowse` — force a controller-side `@tags` re-walk
+
+PR abcip-2.5 (issue #233) added `RebrowseAsync` to drop the cached UDT
+template shapes and re-run the symbol-table enumerator without restarting
+the driver. The CLI variant builds a transient driver against the supplied
+gateway, runs the rebrowse, and prints the freshly discovered tag names —
+useful after a controller program-download to confirm the new tags are
+visible on the wire before wiring them through the OtOpcUa server.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-abcip-cli rebrowse -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0
+```
+
+## Refreshing the tag DB
+
+Two operator-facing surfaces drive the same `RebrowseAsync` plumbing — pick
+the one that matches your context:
+
+| Surface | When to use | Command |
+|---|---|---|
+| **CLI `rebrowse`** | Off-server validation. Spins up a transient driver against the gateway, prints the discovered tag list, no shared state with the live OtOpcUa server. | `otopcua-abcip-cli rebrowse -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0` |
+| **OPC UA write to `_RefreshTagDb`** | Production / Admin-UI button (PR abcip-4.4). Forces the **live** driver to re-walk + clear its template cache. The `AbCip.RefreshTriggers` driver-diagnostics counter increments per truthy write. | `otopcua-client-cli write -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 -n "ns=2;s=AbCip/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/_System/_RefreshTagDb" -v true --type Boolean` |
+
+Read-back semantics: `_RefreshTagDb` always reads back as `false` (Kepware-
+style "latches to idle the moment the dispatch returns") so a subscribed
+client sees a stable shape regardless of how many refreshes have fired.
+Falsy / unparseable writes are no-ops that still report `Good` so a UI
+template that resets the trigger flag after firing it doesn't see a phantom
+error. See
+[AbCip-Operability §System tags](drivers/AbCip-Operability.md#refreshing-the-tag-db-via-opc-ua-write)
+for the full semantics + the diagnostics counter wiring.
+
+## Typical workflows
+
+- **"Is the PLC reachable?"** → `probe`.
+- **"Did my recipe write land?"** → `write` + `read` back.
+- **"Why is tag X flipping?"** → `subscribe`.
+- **"Is this GuardLogix safety tag writable from non-safety?"** → `write` and
+  read the status code — safety tags surface `BadNotWritable` / CIP errors,
+  non-safety tags surface `Good`.
+- **"Did my program download show up in the address space?"** → `rebrowse`
+  (off-server) or write `true` to the live server's `_RefreshTagDb` system
+  tag (in-server, PR abcip-4.4) — both drop the template cache + force a
+  fresh `@tags` walk.
+
+## Connection Size
+
+PR abcip-3.1 introduced a per-device `ConnectionSize` override on the driver
+side (`AbCipDeviceOptions.ConnectionSize`, range `500..4002`). The CLI does
+not expose a flag for it — every CLI invocation uses the family-default
+Connection Size (4002 / 504 / 488 depending on `--family`). When a Forward

+
+Ad-hoc probe / read / write / subscribe tool for SLC 500 / MicroLogix 1100 /
+MicroLogix 1400 / PLC-5 devices, talking to the **same** `AbLegacyDriver` the
+OtOpcUa server uses (libplctag PCCC back-end).
+
+Third of four driver test-client CLIs. Shares `Driver.Cli.Common` with the
+others.
+
+## Build + run
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbLegacy.Cli -- --help
+```
+
+## Common flags
+
+| Flag | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `-g` / `--gateway` | **required** | Canonical `ab://host[:port]/cip-path` |
+| `-P` / `--plc-type` | `Slc500` | Slc500 / MicroLogix / Plc5 / LogixPccc |
+| `--timeout-ms` | `5000` | Per-operation timeout — see precedence note below |
+| `--retries` | `0` | Retry count on transient `BadCommunicationError` (PR 9 / #252) |
+| `--demote-failure-threshold` | `3` | **PR ablegacy-12 / #255** — consecutive comm failures before the device is auto-demoted |
+| `--demote-for-ms` | `30000` | **PR ablegacy-12 / #255** — auto-demote cool-down window in ms |
+| `--no-demote` | off | **PR ablegacy-12 / #255** — disable auto-demote entirely (counters still tick) |
+| `--verbose` | off | Serilog debug output |
+
+Family ↔ CIP-path cheat sheet:
+- **SLC 5/05 / PLC-5** — `1,0`
+- **MicroLogix 1100 / 1400** — empty path (`ab://host/`) — they use direct EIP
+  with no backplane
+- **LogixPccc** — `1,0` (Logix controller accessed via the PCCC compatibility
+  layer; rare)
+- **PLC-5 via 1756-DHRIO bridge** — `1,<slot>,2,<station-octal>` (PLC-5 only).
+  See [drivers/AbLegacy-DH-Bridging.md](drivers/AbLegacy-DH-Bridging.md) for
+  the full DH+ syntax, octal-station reference (00..77 = 0..63), and manual
+  hardware smoke procedure.
+
+#### DHRIO worked example (PR ablegacy-13 / #256)
+
+PLC-5 on DH+ node 7 (octal 07), DHRIO module in chassis slot 3,
+EtherNet/IP gateway 192.168.1.10:
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read `
+    -g ab://192.168.1.10/1,3,2,07 `
+    -P Plc5 -a N7:10 -t Int
+```
+
+The parser validates `1,<slot>,2,<station>`: port-1 must be the backplane,
+slot must be 0..16, port-3 must be `2` (DH+), station must be octal 0..77 (so
+`80`, `90`, etc. are rejected). Combining a DH+ bridge path with a non-PLC-5
+family at startup throws `InvalidOperationException("DHRIO bridging is
+PLC-5-only")`.
+
+### Per-device timeout / retry tuning (#252, PR 9)
+
+The CLI's `--timeout-ms` is the **driver-wide default** when launched as a
+one-shot test client. In production (server-side, multi-device deployment)
+each `AbLegacyDeviceOptions` row carries its own optional `Timeout` /
+`Retries` that override the driver-wide value.
+
+Precedence (highest → lowest): per-device override → driver-wide default →
+hard-coded fallback (2000 ms / 0 retries).
+
+Tuning cheat sheet — start here, measure, then trim:
+
+| Family | Recommended `Timeout` | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| SLC 5/01 (RS-232 / DH+ bridge) | **5000 ms** | Slowest of the bunch; serial round-trip plus DH+ hop |
+| SLC 5/02 / 5/03 (DH+) | 3000 ms | Bridged Ethernet → DH+ adds ~1 s |
+| **SLC 5/04 / 5/05** (Ethernet) | **2000 ms** | Fastest of the SLC family — direct EIP/PCCC |
+| MicroLogix 1100 / 1400 | **3000 ms** | Single-CPU, slow scan; no backplane |
+| PLC-5 (Ethernet I/F) | 2500 ms | Comparable to SLC 5/05 over EIP |
+| LogixPccc compat layer | 2000 ms | Logix CPU is fast; PCCC layer is the floor |
+
+A small `--retries 1` (or `2` for slow chassis) is generally safe — the retry
+loop only fires on transient `BadCommunicationError`; terminal errors
+(`BadNodeIdUnknown`, `BadTypeMismatch`, …) surface on the first attempt.
+
+## PCCC address primer
+
+File letters imply data type; type flag still required so the CLI knows how to
+parse your `--value`.
+
+| File | Type | CLI `--type` |
+|---|---|---|
+| `N` | signed int16 | `Int` |
+| `F` | float32 | `Float` |
+| `B` | bit-packed (`B3:0/3` addresses bit 3 of word 0) | `Bit` |
+| `L` | long int32 (SLC 5/05+ only) | `Long` |
+| `A` | analog int (semantically like N) | `AnalogInt` |
+| `ST` | ASCII string (82-byte + length header) | `String` |
+| `T` | timer sub-element (`T4:0.ACC` / `.PRE` / `.EN` / `.DN`) | `TimerElement` |
+| `C` | counter sub-element (`C5:0.ACC` / `.PRE` / `.CU` / `.CD` / `.DN`) | `CounterElement` |
+| `R` | control sub-element (`R6:0.LEN` / `.POS` / `.EN` / `.DN` / `.ER`) | `ControlElement` |
+
+## Commands
+
+### `probe`
+
+```powershell
+# SLC 5/05 — default probe address N7:0
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli probe -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0
+
+# MicroLogix 1100 — status file first word
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli probe -g ab://192.168.1.30/ -P MicroLogix -a S:0
+```
+
+`probe` output (PR ablegacy-12 / #255) reports both `Health` (driver health
+state) and `Host state`. The latter is sourced from `IHostConnectivityProbe`
+and surfaces `Demoted` when the auto-demote threshold has tripped — a fast
+visual signal that the CLI is short-circuiting future reads against this
+device until the cool-down expires:
+
+```text
+Gateway:      ab://192.168.1.20/1,0
+PLC type:     Slc500
+Health:       Degraded
+Host state:   Demoted
+Last error:   libplctag status -33 reading N7:0
+```
+
+### Auto-demote knobs
+
+```powershell
+# Trip after just one comm failure, hold for 60s.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a N7:0 -t Int `
+    --demote-failure-threshold 1 --demote-for-ms 60000
+
+# Opt out of auto-demote — stresses the link without short-circuiting.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a N7:0 -t Int --no-demote
+```
+
+The CLI is a one-shot test client — auto-demote primarily matters in the
+server-side multi-device deployment, where a single demoted PLC can no
+longer block reads against its healthy peers. Use the CLI flags to
+reproduce a flapping-link scenario locally before tuning the server-side
+`appsettings.json` `Demote` block.
+
+### `read`
+
+```powershell
+# Integer
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a N7:10 -t Int
+
+# Float
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a F8:0 -t Float

+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a L19:0 -t Long
+
+# Timer ACC
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a T4:0.ACC -t TimerElement
+
+# Diagnostic counter (PR ablegacy-10 / #253). The seven _Diagnostics/<name>
+# addresses live alongside user tags — short-circuit serves them straight from
+# the in-process counter store, so no PCCC frame is sent to the PLC.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 --address _Diagnostics/RequestCount
+```
+
+The diagnostic surface auto-emits per device — no config required. See
+`docs/drivers/AbLegacy-Diagnostics.md` for the full counter table + reset
+semantics + collision-rejection rules.
+
+### `write`
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli write -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a N7:10 -t Int -v 42
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli write -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a F8:0 -t Float -v 3.14
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli write -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a B3:0/3 -t Bit -v on
+```
+
+Writes to timer / counter / control sub-elements land at the wire level but
+the PLC's runtime semantics (EN/DN edge-triggering, preset reload) are
+PLC-managed — use with caution.
+
+### `subscribe`
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli subscribe -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a N7:10 -t Int -i 500
+```
+
+#### Deadband
+
+PR 8 — per-tag absolute / percent change filter on top of the polled subscription. The driver
+caches the last *published* value per tag and suppresses `OnDataChange` notifications until the
+new sample crosses the configured threshold.
+
+| Flag | Effect |
+|---|---|
+| `--deadband-absolute <value>` | Suppress until `|new - prev| >= value`. |
+| `--deadband-percent <value>` | Suppress until `|new - prev| >= |prev * value / 100|`. `prev == 0` always publishes (avoids div-by-zero). |
+
+Booleans bypass the filter entirely (every transition publishes); strings + status changes
+always publish; first-seen always publishes; both flags set → either passing triggers a
+publish (Kepware-style logical OR).
+
+```powershell
+# Float — drop sub-0.5 jitter from the noisy load-cell address.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli subscribe -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a F8:0 -t Float -i 500 `
+    --deadband-absolute 0.5
+
+# Integer — only fire on >= 5% deviation from the last reported value.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli subscribe -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a N7:10 -t Int -i 500 `
+    --deadband-percent 5
+```
+
+## Array reads
+
+PR 7 — one PCCC frame can carry up to ~120 words. Address an array tag with either the
+Rockwell-native `,N` suffix or the libplctag-native `[N]` suffix on the word number; both
+forms canonicalise to `[N]` when the driver hands the tag to libplctag, and the parser
+caps `N` at 120.
+
+```powershell
+# Rockwell `,N` form — "10 consecutive words starting at N7:0"
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a "N7:0,10" -t Int
+
+# libplctag `[N]` form — same wire result
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a "N7:0[10]" -t Int
+
+# Float / Long arrays — same suffix syntax, narrower frame ceiling on Float (~60 elements)
+# and Long (~60 elements) because each element is 4 bytes vs Int's 2.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a "F8:0,4" -t Float
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a "L19:0,4" -t Long
+
+# --array-length override — pin the element count from config rather than the address
+# suffix. Wins over the parsed `,N` / `[N]` value when both are set; useful for keeping the
+# address string compact while bumping the element count from a tags config file.
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read -g ab://192.168.1.20/1,0 -a "N7:0" --array-length 10 -t Int
+```
+
+Array tags reject sub-element references (`T4:0,5.ACC`) and bit suffixes (`N7:0,10/3`) at
+parse time — both combinations are semantically meaningless against a contiguous block.
+
+For `B`-files the Rockwell convention is "one BOOL per word, not per bit": `B3:0,10`
+returns `bool[10]` (one per word's non-zero state), not `bool[160]`.
+

+# `otopcua-focas-cli` — Fanuc FOCAS test client
+
+Ad-hoc probe / read / write / subscribe tool for Fanuc CNCs via the FOCAS/2
+protocol. Uses the **same** `FocasDriver` the OtOpcUa server does — PMC R/G/F
+file registers, axis bits, parameters, and macro variables — all through
+`FocasAddressParser` syntax.
+
+Sixth of the driver test-client CLIs, added alongside the Tier-C isolation
+work tracked in task #220.
+
+## Architecture note
+
+FOCAS is a Tier-C driver: `Fwlib32.dll` is a proprietary 32-bit Fanuc library
+with a documented habit of crashing its hosting process on network errors.
+The target runtime deployment splits the driver into an in-process
+`FocasProxyDriver` (.NET 10 x64) and an out-of-process `Driver.FOCAS.Host`
+(.NET 4.8 x86 Windows service) that owns the DLL — see
+[v2/implementation/focas-isolation-plan.md](v2/implementation/focas-isolation-plan.md)
+and
+[v2/implementation/phase-6-1-resilience-and-observability.md](v2/implementation/phase-6-1-resilience-and-observability.md)
+for topology + supervisor / respawn / back-pressure design.
+
+The CLI skips the proxy and loads `FocasDriver` directly (via
+`FwlibFocasClientFactory`, which P/Invokes `Fwlib32.dll` in the CLI's own
+process). There is **no public simulator** for FOCAS; a meaningful probe
+requires a real CNC + a licensed `Fwlib32.dll` on `PATH` (or next to the
+executable). On a dev box without the DLL, every wire call surfaces as
+`BadCommunicationError` — still useful as a "CLI wire-up is correct" signal.
+
+## Build + run
+
+```powershell
+dotnet build src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.FOCAS.Cli
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.FOCAS.Cli -- --help

+
+## Common flags
+
+Every command accepts:
+
+| Flag | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `-h` / `--cnc-host` | **required** | CNC IP address or hostname |
+| `-p` / `--cnc-port` | `8193` | FOCAS TCP port (FOCAS-over-EIP default) |
+| `-s` / `--series` | `Unknown` | CNC series — `Unknown` / `Zero_i_D` / `Zero_i_F` / `Zero_i_MF` / `Zero_i_TF` / `Sixteen_i` / `Thirty_i` / `ThirtyOne_i` / `ThirtyTwo_i` / `PowerMotion_i` |
+| `--timeout-ms` | `2000` | Per-operation timeout |
+| `--cnc-password` | (none) | **F4-d (issue #271)** — optional CNC connection-level password emitted via `cnc_wrunlockparam` on connect. Required only by controllers that gate parameter writes / selected reads behind a password switch (16i + some 30i firmwares with parameter-protect on). **PASSWORD INVARIANT: never logged.** The CLI's Serilog config does not destructure this flag and `FocasDeviceOptions.ToString` redacts the value. See [`v2/focas-deployment.md`](v2/focas-deployment.md) § "FOCAS password handling". |
+| `--verbose` | off | Serilog debug output |
+
+## Addressing
+
+`FocasAddressParser` syntax — the same format the server + `FocasTagDefinition`
+use. Common shapes:
+
+| Address | Meaning |
+|---|---|
+| `R100` | PMC R-file word register 100 |
+| `X0.0` | PMC X-file bit 0 of byte 0 |
+| `G50.3` | PMC G-file bit 3 of byte 50 |
+| `F1.4` | PMC F-file bit 4 of byte 1 |
+| `PARAM:1815/0` | Parameter 1815, axis 0 |
+| `MACRO:500` | Macro variable 500 |
+
+## Data types
+
+`Bit`, `Byte`, `Int16`, `Int32`, `Float32`, `Float64`, `String`. Default is
+`Int16` (matches PMC R-file word width).
+
+## Commands
+
+### `probe` — is the CNC reachable?
+
+Opens a FOCAS session, reads one sample address, prints driver health.
+
+```powershell
+# Default: read R100 as Int16
+otopcua-focas-cli probe -h 192.168.1.50
+
+# Explicit series + address
+otopcua-focas-cli probe -h 192.168.1.50 -s ThirtyOne_i --address R200 --type Int16
+```
+
+### `read` — single address
+
+```powershell

+otopcua-focas-cli read -h 192.168.1.50 -a MACRO:500 -t Float64
+```
+
+### `write` — single value
+
+Values parse per `--type` with invariant culture. Booleans accept
+`true` / `false` / `1` / `0` / `yes` / `no` / `on` / `off`.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-focas-cli write -h 192.168.1.50 -a R100 -t Int16 -v 42
+otopcua-focas-cli write -h 192.168.1.50 -a G50.3 -t Bit -v on

+# surfaces as BadUserAccessDenied)
+otopcua-focas-cli write -h 192.168.1.50 -a PARAM:1815 -t Int32 -v 100
+```
+
+> **WARNING — `write -a G50.3 -t Bit -v on` is a read-modify-write.**
+> The wire call `pmc_wrpmcrng` is byte-addressed; the driver reads the
+> parent byte at `G50` first, sets bit 3, and writes the byte back. Other
+> bits in `G50` that the ladder is concurrently updating may be clobbered
+> by the byte we read a millisecond ago. Coordinate via a ladder-side
+> handshake when this matters. **PMC writes also bypass the ladder's
+> normal MDI-mode protection** — a misdirected bit can move motion or
+> latch a feedhold the moment it lands. Verify e-stop is live and the
+> machine is in JOG mode before issuing the first PMC write of a
+> session. See [`docs/drivers/FOCAS.md`](drivers/FOCAS.md) "PMC bit-write
+> read-modify-write semantics" for the full RMW flow.
+
+PMC G/R writes land on a running machine — be careful which file you hit.
+Parameter writes may require the CNC to be in MDI mode with the
+parameter-write switch enabled.
+
+#### Server-enforced ACL — issue #269, plan PR F4-b
+
+When the same write flows through the OtOpcUa server (rather than the CLI's
+direct-to-CNC path), the server-layer ACL gates by tag kind:
+
+- `PARAM:` writes require **`WriteConfigure`** group membership — heavier
+  ACL because a misdirected parameter write can put the CNC in a bad
+  state.
+- `MACRO:` writes require **`WriteOperate`** — matches the standard HMI
+  recipe / setpoint surface.
+- PMC R/G/F writes require **`WriteOperate`**.
+
+The classification is declared by the FOCAS driver per tag and enforced by
+`DriverNodeManager`; the driver itself never inspects user identity. See
+[`docs/security.md`](security.md) for the full LDAP-group → permission
+mapping, [`docs/v2/acl-design.md`](v2/acl-design.md) for the design, and
+[`docs/v2/focas-deployment.md`](v2/focas-deployment.md) "Write safety" for
+the operator pre-check runbook (MDI mode, parameter-write switch).
+
+**Writes are non-idempotent by default** — a timeout after the CNC already
+applied the write will NOT auto-retry (plan decisions #44 + #45).
+
+#### Server-side `Writes` enforcement (issue #268 F4-a + #269 F4-b + #270 F4-c)
+
+The OtOpcUa server gates every FOCAS write behind multiple independent
+opt-ins: `FocasDriverOptions.Writes.Enabled` (driver-level master switch),
+`Writes.AllowParameter` (PARAM kill switch — F4-b), `Writes.AllowMacro`
+(MACRO kill switch — F4-b), `Writes.AllowPmc` (PMC kill switch — F4-c),
+and `FocasTagDefinition.Writable` (per-tag). All default `false`; any one
+off short-circuits the server-side `WriteAsync` to `BadNotWritable` before
+the wire client is touched. See [`docs/drivers/FOCAS.md`](drivers/FOCAS.md)
+"Writes (opt-in, off by default)" subsection +
+[`docs/v2/decisions.md`](v2/decisions.md) for the decision record.
+
+**The CLI bypasses the server-side flag.** `otopcua-focas-cli write` is a
+per-invocation operator tool — it sets `Writes.Enabled = true` locally for
+the lifetime of one process and creates the synthesised tag with
+`Writable = true`. This is intentional: the CLI is the operator's
+direct-to-CNC fallback, not a long-lived process bound to the central
+config DB. Configuring the server still requires both opt-ins to be set
+explicitly in the DriverInstance JSON.
+
+### `subscribe` — watch an address until Ctrl+C
+
+FOCAS has no push model; the shared `PollGroupEngine` handles the tick
+loop.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-focas-cli subscribe -h 192.168.1.50 -a R100 -t Int16 -i 500
+```
+
+## Output format
+
+Identical to the other driver CLIs via `SnapshotFormatter`:
+
+- `probe` / `read` emit a multi-line block: `Tag / Value / Status /
+  Source Time / Server Time`. `probe` prefixes it with `CNC`, `Series`,
+  `Health`, and `Last error` lines.
+- `write` emits one line: `Write <address>: 0x... (Good |
+  BadCommunicationError | …)`.
+- `subscribe` emits one line per change: `[HH:mm:ss.fff] <address> =
+  <value> (<status>)`.
+
+## Typical workflows
+
+**"Is the CNC alive?"** → `probe`.
+
+**"Does my parameter write land?"** → `write` + `read` back against the
+same address. Check the parameter-write switch + MDI mode if the write
+fails.
+
+**"Why did this macro flip?"** → `subscribe` to the macro, let the
+operator reproduce the cycle, watch the HH:mm:ss.fff timeline.
+
+**"Is the Fwlib32 DLL wired up?"** → `probe` against any host. A
+`DllNotFoundException` surfacing as `BadCommunicationError` with a
+matching `Last error` line means the driver is loading but the DLL is
+missing; anything else means a transport-layer problem.

+# `otopcua-modbus-cli` — Modbus-TCP test client
+
+Ad-hoc probe / read / write / subscribe tool for talking to Modbus-TCP devices
+through the **same** `ModbusDriver` the OtOpcUa server uses. Mirrors the v1
+OPC UA `otopcua-cli` shape so the muscle memory carries over: drop to a shell,
+point at a PLC, watch registers move.
+
+First of four driver test-client CLIs (Modbus → AB CIP → AB Legacy → S7 →
+TwinCAT). Built on the shared `ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Cli.Common` library
+so each downstream CLI inherits verbose/log wiring + snapshot formatting
+without copy-paste.
+
+## Build + run
+
+```powershell
+dotnet build src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Modbus.Cli
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Modbus.Cli -- --help
+```
+
+Or publish a self-contained binary:
+
+```powershell
+dotnet publish src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Modbus.Cli -c Release -o publish/modbus-cli
+publish/modbus-cli/otopcua-modbus-cli.exe --help
+```
+
+## Common flags
+
+Every command accepts:
+
+| Flag | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `-h` / `--host` | **required** | Modbus-TCP server hostname or IP |
+| `-p` / `--port` | `502` | TCP port |
+| `-U` / `--unit-id` | `1` | Modbus unit / slave ID |
+| `--timeout-ms` | `2000` | Per-PDU timeout |
+| `--disable-reconnect` | off | Turn off mid-transaction reconnect-and-retry |
+| `--verbose` | off | Serilog debug output |
+
+## Commands
+
+### `probe` — is the PLC up?
+
+Connects, reads one holding register, prints driver health. Fastest sanity
+check after swapping a network cable or deploying a new device.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-modbus-cli probe -h 192.168.1.10
+otopcua-modbus-cli probe -h 192.168.1.10 --probe-address 100    # device locks HR[0]
+```
+
+### `read` — single register / coil / string
+
+Synthesises a one-tag driver config on the fly from `--region` + `--address`
++ `--type` flags.
+
+```powershell
+# Holding register as UInt16
+otopcua-modbus-cli read -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 100 -t UInt16
+
+# Float32 with word-swap (CDAB) — common on Siemens / some AB families
+otopcua-modbus-cli read -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 200 -t Float32 --byte-order WordSwap
+
+# Single bit out of a packed holding register
+otopcua-modbus-cli read -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 10 -t BitInRegister --bit-index 3
+
+# 40-char ASCII string — DirectLOGIC packs the first char in the low byte
+otopcua-modbus-cli read -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 300 -t String --string-length 40 --string-byte-order LowByteFirst
+
+# Discrete input / coil
+otopcua-modbus-cli read -h 192.168.1.10 -r DiscreteInputs -a 5 -t Bool
+```
+
+### `write` — single value
+
+Same flag shape as `read` plus `-v` / `--value`. Values parse per `--type`
+using invariant culture (period as decimal separator). Booleans accept
+`true`/`false`/`1`/`0`/`yes`/`no`/`on`/`off`.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-modbus-cli write -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 100 -t UInt16 -v 42
+otopcua-modbus-cli write -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 200 -t Float32 -v 3.14
+otopcua-modbus-cli write -h 192.168.1.10 -r Coils -a 5 -t Bool -v on
+```
+
+**Writes are non-idempotent by default** — a timeout after the device
+already applied the write will NOT auto-retry. This matches the driver's
+production contract (plan decisions #44 + #45).
+
+### `subscribe` — watch a register until Ctrl+C
+
+Uses the driver's `ISubscribable` surface (polling under the hood via
+`PollGroupEngine`). Prints every data-change event with a timestamp.
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-modbus-cli subscribe -h 192.168.1.10 -r HoldingRegisters -a 100 -t Int16 -i 500
+```
+
+## Output format
+
+- `probe` / `read` emit a multi-line per-tag block: `Tag / Value / Status /
+  Source Time / Server Time`.
+- `write` emits one line: `Write <tag>: 0x... (Good | BadCommunicationError | …)`.
+- `subscribe` emits one line per change: `[HH:mm:ss.fff] <tag> = <value> (<status>)`.
+
+Status codes are rendered as `0xXXXXXXXX (Name)` for the OPC UA shortlist
+(`Good`, `BadCommunicationError`, `BadTimeout`, `BadNodeIdUnknown`,
+`BadTypeMismatch`, `Uncertain`, …). Unknown codes fall back to bare hex.
+
+## Typical workflows
+
+**"Is the PLC alive?"** → `probe`.
+
+**"Does my recipe write land?"** → `write` + `read` back against the same
+address.
+
+**"Why is tag X flipping?"** → `subscribe` + wait for the operator scenario.
+
+**"What's the right byte order for this family?"** → `read` with
+`--byte-order BigEndian`, then with `--byte-order WordSwap`. The one that
+gives plausible values is the correct one for that device.

+
+## PUT/GET must be enabled
+
+S7-1200 / S7-1500 ship with PUT/GET communication **disabled** by default.
+Enable it in TIA Portal: *Device config → Protection & Security → Connection
+mechanisms → "Permit access with PUT/GET communication from remote partner"*.
+Without it the CLI's first read will surface `BadNotSupported`.
+
+### Pre-flight PUT/GET enablement (PR-S7-C5)
+
+The driver issues a tiny 2-byte read against `Probe.ProbeAddress` (default
+`MW0`) immediately after `OpenAsync` and **fails `InitializeAsync` with a
+typed `S7PutGetDisabledException`** when the PLC rejects the read with the
+wire-level "function not allowed" response. The exception message names the
+exact TIA Portal toggle to flip — operators see the configuration fix at
+init time, not after the first per-tag read produces `BadDeviceFailure`.
+
+Two opt-out knobs on the JSON `Probe` block:
+
+- `ProbeAddress` — set to `""` (empty string) to skip the pre-flight read
+  entirely. Useful when no fingerprint address has been wired.
+- `SkipPreflight` — set to `true` to defer the check to runtime while
+  keeping the background liveness loop. Per-tag reads still surface
+  `BadDeviceFailure` until PUT/GET is enabled, but Init succeeds and the
+  driver becomes visible in the Admin UI.
+
+See [s7.md "Pre-flight PUT/GET enablement"](v2/s7.md#pre-flight-putget-enablement)
+for the full rationale, classifier behaviour, and the wire-level
+`ErrorCode` matching.
+
+## S7 address grammar cheat sheet

+
+## Commands
+
+### `probe`
+
+```powershell
+# S7-1500 — default probe MW0
+otopcua-s7-cli probe -h 192.168.1.30
+
+# S7-300 (slot 2)
+otopcua-s7-cli probe -h 192.168.1.31 -c S7300 --slot 2 -a DB1.DBW0
+```
+
+### `read`
+
+```powershell

+otopcua-s7-cli read -h 192.168.1.30 -a DB1.DBW0 -t Int16
+
+# Float32 from DB dword

+```
+
+### `write`
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-s7-cli write -h 192.168.1.30 -a DB1.DBW0 -t Int16 -v 42
+otopcua-s7-cli write -h 192.168.1.30 -a DB1.DBD4 -t Float32 -v 3.14

+```
+
+**Writes to M / Q are real** — they drive the PLC program. Be careful what you
+flip on a running machine.
+
+### Hardened CPU — forcing OP-class TSAP
+
+```powershell
+# Probe a hardened S7-1500 that rejects PG class but accepts OP.
+otopcua-s7-cli probe -h 10.50.12.30 --tsap-mode Op
+
+# Read against the same CPU.
+otopcua-s7-cli read -h 10.50.12.30 --tsap-mode Op -a DB1.DBW0 -t Int16
+
+# Manual TSAP override (e.g. site with a fixed proprietary TSAP gateway).
+otopcua-s7-cli probe -h 10.50.12.30 --tsap-mode Other --local-tsap 0x4D57 --remote-tsap 0x4D58
+```
+
+Without `--tsap-mode`, the CLI uses S7netplus's CpuType-derived default (PG
+class for almost everything). The same connection-refused failure shape that a
+wrong `--slot` produces also shows up when the CPU rejects PG class — try
+`--tsap-mode Op` first when the handshake is failing on otherwise-correct
+endpoint config. See [s7.md TSAP / Connection Type](v2/s7.md#tsap--connection-type)
+for the byte table and motivation.
+
+### `subscribe`
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-s7-cli subscribe -h 192.168.1.30 -a DB1.DBW0 -t Int16 -i 500
+```
+
+S7comm has no native push — the CLI polls through `PollGroupEngine` just like
+Modbus / AB.
+
+### `import-symbols`
+
+PR-S7-D1 / [#299](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/299) — read a TIA
+Portal CSV ("Show all tags" export) or STEP 7 Classic `.AWL` file and emit a
+JSON tag fragment for `appsettings.json`, or a one-line summary. Mirrors the
+AB Legacy `import-rslogix` CLI in shape.
+
+```powershell
+# TIA Portal CSV — emit JSON fragment to stdout
+otopcua-s7-cli import-symbols --file plc-export.csv --format tia
+
+# STEP 7 Classic AWL — emit summary line
+otopcua-s7-cli import-symbols --file classic.awl --format awl --emit summary

+    --output tags.json
+
+# Strict mode — fail-fast on the first malformed row (CI lint)
+otopcua-s7-cli import-symbols --file plc.csv --format tia --strict
+```
+
+| Flag | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `-f` / `--file` | **required** | Path to the TIA CSV or `.AWL` file |
+| `--format` | `tia` | `tia` (CSV) or `awl` (STEP 7 Classic) |
+| `-d` / `--device` | none | Optional documentation tag (held for symmetry with `import-rslogix`) |
+| `--emit` | `appsettings-fragment` | `appsettings-fragment` (JSON) or `summary` (one-line counter) |
+| `-o` / `--output` | stdout | Optional path; when set the JSON fragment is written there + summary line goes to stdout |
+| `--max-rows` | unlimited | Defensive cap on rows imported |
+| `--strict` | off | Fail-fast on the first malformed row (default permissive: skip + log) |
+
+UDT-typed rows import as placeholder tags (data type forced to `Byte`); see
+[S7-TIA-Import.md](drivers/S7-TIA-Import.md) for the full format reference,
+locale auto-detection, and AWL position-based addressing rules.

+runtimes via ADS. Uses the **same** `TwinCATDriver` the OtOpcUa server does
+(`Beckhoff.TwinCAT.Ads` package). Native ADS notifications by default;
+`--poll-only` falls back to the shared `PollGroupEngine`.
+
+Fifth (final) of the driver test-client CLIs.
+
+## Build + run
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.TwinCAT.Cli -- --help
+```
+
+## Prerequisite: AMS router
+
+The `Beckhoff.TwinCAT.Ads` library needs a reachable AMS router to open ADS
+sessions. Pick one:
+
+1. **Local TwinCAT XAR** — install the free TwinCAT 3 XAR Engineering install
+   on the machine running the CLI; it ships the router.
+2. **Beckhoff.TwinCAT.Ads.TcpRouter** — standalone NuGet router. Run in a
+   sidecar process when no XAR is installed.
+3. **Remote AMS route** — any Windows box with TwinCAT installed, with an AMS
+   route authorised to the CLI host.
+
+The CLI compiles + runs without a router, but every wire call fails with a
+transport error until one is reachable.
+
+## UDT decomposition
+
+PR 4.1 (issue #315) replaces the old "skip non-atomic symbols" behaviour
+of `BrowseSymbolsAsync` with a recursive type walker
+(`TwinCATTypeWalker`). When the OtOpcUa server's TwinCAT driver runs
+discovery with `EnableControllerBrowse=true`, struct / UDT / function-block
+typed symbols flatten into one OPC UA variable per atomic leaf. Browse
+addresses use the same dotted-instance form the PLC exposes:
+
+| PLC declaration | OPC UA browse paths surfaced |
+|---|---|
+| `MAIN.bStart : BOOL` | `MAIN.bStart` |
+| `GVL.stMotor : ST_Motor` | `GVL.stMotor.bRunning`, `GVL.stMotor.nState`, `GVL.stMotor.rTemperature`, … |
+| `GVL.aRecipe : ARRAY[1..10] OF DINT` | `GVL.aRecipe[1]` … `GVL.aRecipe[10]` |
+| `GVL.aPairs : ARRAY[0..2] OF ST_Pair` | `GVL.aPairs[0].nCount`, `GVL.aPairs[0].rValue`, `GVL.aPairs[1].…` |
+| `GVL.aBig : ARRAY[1..5000] OF DINT` | `GVL.aBig` (single whole-array root — over the cap) |
+
+The CLI's `read` / `write` / `subscribe` commands take dotted paths
+directly:
+
+```powershell
+# Read a struct member
+otopcua-twincat-cli read -n 192.168.1.40.1.1 -s GVL.stMotor.rTemperature -t Real
+
+# Read an array element
+otopcua-twincat-cli read -n 192.168.1.40.1.1 -s "GVL.aRecipe[3]" -t DInt
+```
+
+### Array expansion bound
+
+`TwinCATDriverOptions.MaxArrayExpansion` (default `1024`) caps how many
+elements an array contributes to the discovered address space. Arrays
+whose total element count exceeds the cap surface as a single
+whole-array root with `IsArrayRoot=true` instead of one variable per
+element. Raise the bound when operators routinely care about individual
+elements of large recipe / lookup tables; lower it to keep discovery
+cheap for symbol tables that ship multi-thousand-element scratch
+arrays. Pre-declared whole-array tags from the `Tags` config bypass the
+walker entirely — set `ArrayDimensions` on a `TwinCATTagDefinition` to
+keep array reads on the existing PR 1.4 read-array path.
+
+### Cycle / depth guard
+
+The walker tracks the visited-type set + a hard depth cap of 8 levels
+so a self-pointer (`POINTER TO ST_Self`) or pathological alias chain
+terminates rather than spinning. POINTER / REFERENCE members are
+skipped at the type-graph level — surfacing them would require
+dereferencing through the AMS routing layer which has its own access
+patterns.
+
+## Common flags
+
+| Flag | Default | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `-n` / `--ams-net-id` | **required** | AMS Net ID (e.g. `192.168.1.40.1.1`) |
+| `-p` / `--ams-port` | `851` | AMS port (TwinCAT 3 PLC = 851, TwinCAT 2 = 801) |
+| `--timeout-ms` | `5000` | Per-operation timeout |
+| `--poll-only` | off | Disable native ADS notifications, use `PollGroupEngine` instead |
+| `--verbose` | off | Serilog debug output |
+
+## Data types
+
+TwinCAT exposes the IEC 61131-3 atomic set: `Bool`, `SInt`, `USInt`, `Int`,
+`UInt`, `DInt`, `UDInt`, `LInt`, `ULInt`, `Real`, `LReal`, `String`, `WString`,
+`Time`, `Date`, `DateTime`, `TimeOfDay`. The four IEC time/date variants
+marshal as `UDINT` on the wire — CLI takes a numeric raw value and lets the
+caller interpret semantics.
+
+## Commands
+
+### `probe`
+
+```powershell
+# Local TwinCAT 3, probe a canonical global
+otopcua-twincat-cli probe -n 127.0.0.1.1.1 -s "TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._AppInfo.OnlineChangeCnt"
+
+# Remote, probe a project variable

+```
+
+#### Health probe
+
+The OtOpcUa server's TwinCAT driver runs an internal probe loop (PR 3.2, issue #314)
+that — alongside the cheap `ReadStateAsync` reachability check — samples four
+well-known system symbols once per probe interval and surfaces the result through
+the cross-driver `driver-diagnostics` RPC (added for Modbus, task #154). The same
+symbols can be probed directly via the CLI for ad-hoc troubleshooting:
+
+```powershell
+# Cycle time (UDINT, 100 ns ticks → ÷10000 for ms)
+otopcua-twincat-cli probe -n 192.168.1.40.1.1 -s "TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._TaskInfo[1].CycleTime" --type UDInt
+
+# Last task execution wall-clock (UDINT, 100 ns ticks → ÷10000 for ms)
+otopcua-twincat-cli probe -n 192.168.1.40.1.1 -s "TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._TaskInfo[1].LastExecTime" --type UDInt
+
+# Online-change count — increments on every accepted online change
+otopcua-twincat-cli probe -n 192.168.1.40.1.1 -s "TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._AppInfo.OnlineChangeCnt" --type UDInt
+
+# Loaded PLC project name (STRING(80))
+otopcua-twincat-cli probe -n 192.168.1.40.1.1 -s "TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._AppInfo.AppName" --type String
+```
+
+Within the running OtOpcUa server these four signals land on
+`DeviceState.LastDiagnostics` as a `TwinCATDeviceDiagnostics` record + are folded
+into `DriverHealth.Diagnostics` keyed `TwinCAT.CycleTimeMs`, `TwinCAT.LastExecTimeMs`,
+`TwinCAT.JitterMs` (computed `LastExecTimeMs - CycleTimeMs`),
+`TwinCAT.OnlineChangeCnt`, and `TwinCAT.OnlineChangeIncrements`. See

+| `-t` / `--type` | `DInt` | IEC type (see Data types section) |
+| `-i` / `--interval-ms` | `1000` | **Cycle time** — minimum interval between change checks the PLC runtime applies |
+| `--max-delay-ms` | `0` | **Max coalescing window** — upper bound on how long the runtime buffers change events before dispatch. `0` = fire ASAP, no coalescing |
+| `--poll-only` | off | Disable native notifications, use `PollGroupEngine` instead |
+
+`-i` / `--interval-ms` and `--max-delay-ms` are different things and both flow
+into the Beckhoff `NotificationSettings` ctor:
+
+- **`--interval-ms`** is the *cycle*: the runtime checks for value changes at
+  most this often. Smaller = lower latency, higher CPU.
+- **`--max-delay-ms`** is the *coalescing ceiling*: once a change is detected,
+  the runtime can hold it for up to this long before dispatching, which lets
+  it batch a burst of changes into a single callback. Default `0` means
+  every detected change fires immediately — same as the pre-PR-3.1 behaviour.
+
+For high-frequency signals (a counter incrementing every 10 ms PLC cycle),
+pair a small `-i` (so latency stays bounded) with a non-zero `--max-delay-ms`
+(so the OPC UA queue downstream doesn't flood). For slow signals just leave
+`--max-delay-ms` at `0`.
+
+The subscribe banner announces which mechanism is in play — "ADS notification"
+or "polling" — and includes the `max-delay` value when set, so it's obvious
+in screen-recorded bug reports.
+
+`--poll-only` polls go through the same cached-handle path as `read`, so
+repeated polls of the same symbol carry only a 4-byte handle on the wire
+rather than the full symbolic path.

+Each mirrors the v1 `otopcua-cli` shape (probe / read / write / subscribe) against

+"does the server see it?" are the same question.

+
+The OPC UA client CLI lives separately and predates this suite —
+see [Client.CLI.md](Client.CLI.md) for `otopcua-cli`.
+
+## Shared commands
+
+Every driver CLI exposes the same four verbs:
+
+- **`probe`** — open a session, read one sentinel tag, print driver health.
+  Fastest "is the device talking?" check.
+- **`read`** — synthesise a one-tag driver config from `--type` / `--address`
+  (or `--tag` / `--symbol`) flags, read once, print the snapshot. No extra
+  config file needed.
+- **`write`** — same shape plus `--value`. Values parse per `--type` using
+  invariant culture. Booleans accept `true` / `false` / `1` / `0` / `yes` /
+  `no` / `on` / `off`. Writes are **non-idempotent by default** — a timeout
+  after the device already applied the write will not auto-retry (plan
+  decisions #44, #45).
+- **`subscribe`** — long-running data-change stream until Ctrl+C. Uses native
+  push where available (TwinCAT ADS notifications) and falls back to polling
+  (`PollGroupEngine`) where the protocol has no push (Modbus, AB, S7, FOCAS).
+
+## Shared infrastructure
+
+All six CLIs depend on `src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.Cli.Common/`:
+
+- `DriverCommandBase` — `--verbose` + Serilog configuration + the abstract
+  `Timeout` surface every protocol-specific base overrides with its own
+  default.
+- `SnapshotFormatter` — consistent output across every CLI: tag / value /
+  status / source-time / server-time for single reads, a 4-column table for
+  batches, `Write <tag>: 0x... (Name)` for writes, and one line per change
+  event for subscriptions. OPC UA status codes render as `0xXXXXXXXX (Name)`
+  with a shortlist for `Good` / `Bad*` / `Uncertain`; unknown codes fall
+  back to hex.
+
+Writing a seventh CLI (hypothetical Galaxy / OPC UA Client) costs roughly
+150 lines: a `{Family}CommandBase` + four thin command classes that hand
+their flag values to the already-shipped driver.
+
+## Typical cross-CLI workflows
+
+- **Commissioning a new device** — `probe` first, then `read` a known-good
+  tag. If the device is up + talking the protocol, both pass; if the tag is
+  wrong you'll see the read fail with a protocol-specific error.
+- **Reproducing a production bug** — `subscribe` to the tag the bug report
+  names, then have the operator run the scenario. You get an HH:mm:ss.fff
+  timeline of exactly when each value changed.
+- **Validating a recipe write** — `write` + `read` back. If the server's
+  write path would have done anything different, the CLI would have too.
+- **Byte-order / word-swap debugging** — `read` with one `--byte-order`,
+  then the other. The plausible result identifies the correct setting
+  for that device family. (Modbus, S7.)
+
+## Family-specific commands
+
+Most drivers ship the four shared verbs and nothing else. AB Legacy adds a
+fifth family-specific verb for bulk symbol-table import:
+
+| Driver | Extra verb | Doc |
+|---|---|---|
+| AB Legacy | `import-rslogix` — read RSLogix 500/5 CSV symbol exports + emit a JSON tag fragment | [drivers/AbLegacy-RSLogix-Import.md](drivers/AbLegacy-RSLogix-Import.md) |
+
+Binary RSLogix project files (`.RSS` / `.RSP`) are out of scope for v1 — the
+format is proprietary and undocumented; no parser ships in libplctag or any
+community library. Export to CSV first.
+
+## Known gaps
+
+- **AB Legacy cip-path quirk** — libplctag's ab_server requires a
+  non-empty CIP routing path before forwarding to the PCCC dispatcher.
+  Pass `--gateway "ab://127.0.0.1:44818/1,0"` against the Docker
+  fixture; real SLC / MicroLogix / PLC-5 hardware accepts an empty
+  path (`ab://host:44818/`). Bit-file writes (`B3:0/5`) still surface
+  `0x803D0000` against ab_server — route operator-critical bit writes
+  to real hardware until upstream fixes this.
+- **S7 PUT/GET communication** must be enabled in TIA Portal for any
+  S7-1200/1500. See [Driver.S7.Cli.md](Driver.S7.Cli.md).
+- **TwinCAT AMS router** must be reachable (local XAR, standalone Router
+  NuGet, or authorised remote route). See
+  [Driver.TwinCAT.Cli.md](Driver.TwinCAT.Cli.md).
+- **Structure / UDT writes** are refused by the AB CIP + TwinCAT CLIs —
+  whole-UDT writes need a declared member layout that belongs in a real
+  driver config, not a one-shot flag.

+## Alarm event history vs. `IHistoryProvider`
+
+`IHistoryProvider.ReadEventsAsync` is the **pull** path: an OPC UA client calls `HistoryReadEvents` against a notifier node and the driver walks its own backend event store to satisfy the request. The Galaxy driver's implementation reads from AVEVA Historian's event schema via `aahClientManaged`; every other driver leaves the default `NotSupportedException` in place.
+
+There is also a separate **push** path for persisting alarm transitions from any `IAlarmSource` (and the Phase 7 scripted-alarm engine) into a durable event log, independent of any client HistoryRead call. That path is covered by `IAlarmHistorianSink` + `SqliteStoreAndForwardSink` in `src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.AlarmHistorian/` and is documented in [AlarmTracking.md#alarm-historian-sink](AlarmTracking.md#alarm-historian-sink). The two paths are complementary — the sink populates an external historian's alarm schema; `ReadEventsAsync` reads from whatever event store the driver owns — and share neither interface nor dispatch.
+
 ## Dispatch through `CapabilityInvoker`
 
 All four HistoryRead surfaces are wrapped by `CapabilityInvoker` (`Core/Resilience/CapabilityInvoker.cs`) with `DriverCapability.HistoryRead`. The Polly pipeline keyed on `(DriverInstanceId, HostName, DriverCapability.HistoryRead)` provides timeout, circuit-breaker, and bulkhead defaults per the driver's stability tier (see [docs/v2/driver-stability.md](v2/driver-stability.md)).

Null scope falls back to a full-tree diff.
 
+## Virtual tags in the rebuild
+
+Per [ADR-002](v2/implementation/adr-002-driver-vs-virtual-dispatch.md), virtual (scripted) tags live in the same address space as driver tags and flow through the same rebuild. `EquipmentNodeWalker` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core/OpcUa/EquipmentNodeWalker.cs`) emits virtual-tag children alongside driver-tag children with `DriverAttributeInfo.Source = NodeSourceKind.Virtual`, and `DriverNodeManager` registers each variable's source in `_sourceByFullRef` so the dispatch branches correctly after rebuild. Virtual-tag script changes published from the Admin UI land through the same generation-publish path — the `VirtualTagEngine` recompiles its script bundle when its config row changes and `DriverNodeManager` re-registers any added/removed virtual variables through the standard diff path. Subscription restoration after rebuild runs through each source's `ISubscribable` — either the driver's or `VirtualTagSource` — without special-casing.

 ## Active subscriptions survive rebuild
 
 Subscriptions for unchanged references stay live across rebuilds — their ref-count map is not disturbed. Clients monitoring a stable tag never see a data-change gap during a deploy, only clients monitoring a tag that was genuinely removed see the subscription drop.

+# Scripted Alarms
+
+`Core.ScriptedAlarms` is the Phase 7 subsystem that raises OPC UA Part 9 alarms from operator-authored C# predicates rather than from driver-native alarm streams. Scripted alarms are additive: Galaxy, AB CIP, FOCAS, and OPC UA Client drivers keep their native `IAlarmSource` implementations unchanged, and a `ScriptedAlarmSource` simply registers as another source in the same fan-out. Predicates read tags from any source (driver tags or virtual tags) through the shared `ITagUpstreamSource` and emit condition transitions through the engine's Part 9 state machine.
+
+This file covers the engine internals — predicate evaluation, state machine, persistence, and the engine-to-`IAlarmSource` adapter. The server-side plumbing that turns those emissions into OPC UA `AlarmConditionState` nodes, applies retries, persists alarm transitions to the Historian, and routes operator acks through the session's `AlarmAck` permission lives in [AlarmTracking.md](AlarmTracking.md) and is not repeated here.
+
+## Definition shape
+
+`ScriptedAlarmDefinition` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.ScriptedAlarms/ScriptedAlarmDefinition.cs`) is the runtime contract the engine consumes. The generation-publish path materialises these from the `ScriptedAlarm` + `Script` config tables via `Phase7EngineComposer.ProjectScriptedAlarms`.
+
+| Field | Notes |
+|---|---|
+| `AlarmId` | Stable identity. Also the OPC UA `ConditionId` and the key in `IAlarmStateStore`. Convention: `{EquipmentPath}::{AlarmName}`. |
+| `EquipmentPath` | UNS path the alarm hangs under in the address space. ACL scope inherits from the equipment node. |
+| `AlarmName` | Browse-tree display name. |
+| `Kind` | `AlarmKind` — `AlarmCondition`, `LimitAlarm`, `DiscreteAlarm`, or `OffNormalAlarm`. Controls only the OPC UA ObjectType the node surfaces as; the internal state machine is identical for all four. |
+| `Severity` | `AlarmSeverity` enum (`Low` / `Medium` / `High` / `Critical`). Static per decision #13 — the predicate does not compute severity. The DB column is an OPC UA Part 9 1..1000 integer; `Phase7EngineComposer.MapSeverity` bands it into the four-value enum. |
+| `MessageTemplate` | String with `{TagPath}` placeholders, resolved at emission time. See below. |
+| `PredicateScriptSource` | Roslyn C# script returning `bool`. `true` = condition active; `false` = cleared. |
+| `HistorizeToAveva` | When true, every emission is enqueued to `IAlarmHistorianSink`. Default true. Galaxy-native alarms default false since Galaxy historises them directly. |
+| `Retain` | Part 9 retain flag — keep the condition visible after clear while un-acked/un-confirmed transitions remain. Default true. |
+
+Illustrative definition:
+
+```csharp
+new ScriptedAlarmDefinition(
+    AlarmId:       "Plant/Line1/Oven::OverTemp",
+    EquipmentPath: "Plant/Line1/Oven",
+    AlarmName:     "OverTemp",
+    Kind:          AlarmKind.LimitAlarm,
+    Severity:      AlarmSeverity.High,
+    MessageTemplate: "Oven {Plant/Line1/Oven/Temp} exceeds limit {Plant/Line1/Oven/TempLimit}",
+    PredicateScriptSource: "return GetTag(\"Plant/Line1/Oven/Temp\").AsDouble() > GetTag(\"Plant/Line1/Oven/TempLimit\").AsDouble();");
+```
+
+## Predicate evaluation
+
+Alarm predicates reuse the same Roslyn sandbox as virtual tags — `ScriptEvaluator<AlarmPredicateContext, bool>` compiles the source, `TimedScriptEvaluator` wraps it with the configured timeout (default from `TimedScriptEvaluator.DefaultTimeout`), and `DependencyExtractor` statically harvests the tag paths the script reads. The sandbox rules (forbidden types, cancellation, logging sinks) are documented in [VirtualTags.md](VirtualTags.md); ScriptedAlarms does not redefine them.
+
+`AlarmPredicateContext` (`AlarmPredicateContext.cs`) is the script's `ScriptContext` subclass:
+
+- `GetTag(path)` returns a `DataValueSnapshot` from the engine-maintained read cache. Missing path → `DataValueSnapshot(null, 0x80340000u, null, now)` (`BadNodeIdUnknown`). An empty path returns the same.
+- `SetVirtualTag(path, value)` throws `InvalidOperationException`. Predicates must be side-effect free per plan decision #6; writes would couple alarm state to virtual-tag state in ways that are near-impossible to reason about. Operators see the rejection in `scripts-*.log`.
+- `Now` and `Logger` are provided by the engine.
+
+Evaluation cadence:
+
+- On every upstream tag change that any alarm's input set references (`OnUpstreamChange` → `ReevaluateAsync`). The engine maintains an inverse index `tag path → alarm ids` (`_alarmsReferencing`); only affected alarms re-run.
+- On a 5-second shelving-check timer (`_shelvingTimer`) for timed-shelve expiry.
+- At `LoadAsync` for every alarm, to re-derive `ActiveState` per plan decision #14 (startup recovery).
+
+If a predicate throws or times out, the engine logs the failure and leaves the prior `ActiveState` intact — it does not synthesise a clear. Operators investigating a broken predicate should never see a phantom clear preceding the error.
+
+## Part 9 state machine
+
+`Part9StateMachine` (`Part9StateMachine.cs`) is a pure `static` function set. Every transition takes the current `AlarmConditionState` plus the event, returns a new record and an `EmissionKind`. No I/O, no mutation, trivially unit-testable. Transitions map to OPC UA Part 9:
+
+- `ApplyPredicate(current, predicateTrue, nowUtc)` — predicate re-evaluation. `Inactive → Active` sets `Acked = Unacknowledged` and `Confirmed = Unconfirmed`; `Active → Inactive` updates `LastClearedUtc` and consumes `OneShot` shelving. Disabled alarms no-op.
+- `ApplyAcknowledge` / `ApplyConfirm` — operator ack/confirm. Require a non-empty user string (audit requirement). Each appends an `AlarmComment` with `Kind = "Acknowledge"` / `"Confirm"`.
+- `ApplyOneShotShelve` / `ApplyTimedShelve(unshelveAtUtc)` / `ApplyUnshelve` — shelving transitions. `Timed` requires `unshelveAtUtc > nowUtc`.
+- `ApplyEnable` / `ApplyDisable` — operator enable/disable. Disabled alarms ignore predicate results until re-enabled; on enable, `ActiveState` is re-derived from the next evaluation.
+- `ApplyAddComment(text)` — append-only audit entry, no state change.
+- `ApplyShelvingCheck(nowUtc)` — called by the 5s timer; promotes expired `Timed` shelving to `Unshelved` with a `system / AutoUnshelve` audit entry.
+
+Two invariants the machine enforces:
+
+1. **Disabled** alarms ignore every predicate evaluation — they never transition `ActiveState` / `AckedState` / `ConfirmedState` until re-enabled.
+2. **Shelved** alarms still advance their internal state but emit `EmissionKind.Suppressed` instead of `Activated` / `Cleared`. The engine advances the state record (so startup recovery reflects reality) but `ScriptedAlarmSource` does not publish the suppressed transition to subscribers. `OneShot` expires on the next clear; `Timed` expires at `ShelvingState.UnshelveAtUtc`.
+
+`EmissionKind` values: `None`, `Suppressed`, `Activated`, `Cleared`, `Acknowledged`, `Confirmed`, `Shelved`, `Unshelved`, `Enabled`, `Disabled`, `CommentAdded`.
+
+## Message templates
+
+`MessageTemplate` (`MessageTemplate.cs`) resolves `{path}` placeholders in the configured message at emission time. Syntax:
+
+- `{path/with/slashes}` — brace-stripped contents are looked up via the engine's tag cache.
+- No escaping. Literal braces in messages are not currently supported.
+- `ExtractTokenPaths(template)` is called at `LoadAsync` so the engine subscribes to every referenced path (ensuring the value cache is populated before the first resolve).
+
+Fallback rules: a resolved `DataValueSnapshot` with a non-zero `StatusCode`, a `null` `Value`, or an unknown path becomes `{?}`. The event still fires — the operator sees where the reference broke rather than having the alarm swallowed.
+
+## State persistence
+
+`IAlarmStateStore` (`IAlarmStateStore.cs`) is the persistence contract: `LoadAsync(alarmId)`, `LoadAllAsync`, `SaveAsync(state)`, `RemoveAsync(alarmId)`. `InMemoryAlarmStateStore` in the same file is the default for tests and dev deployments without a SQL backend. Stream E wires the production implementation against the `ScriptedAlarmState` config-DB table with audit logging through `Core.Abstractions.IAuditLogger`.
+
+Persisted scope per plan decision #14: `Enabled`, `Acked`, `Confirmed`, `Shelving`, `LastTransitionUtc`, the `LastAck*` / `LastConfirm*` audit fields, and the append-only `Comments` list. `Active` is **not** trusted across restart — the engine re-runs the predicate at `LoadAsync` so operators never re-ack an alarm that was already acknowledged before an outage, and alarms whose condition cleared during downtime settle to `Inactive` without a spurious clear-event.
+
+Every mutation the state machine produces is immediately persisted inside the engine's `_evalGate` semaphore, so the store's view is always consistent with the in-memory state.
+
+## Source integration
+
+`ScriptedAlarmSource` (`ScriptedAlarmSource.cs`) adapts the engine to the driver-agnostic `IAlarmSource` interface. The existing `AlarmSurfaceInvoker` + `GenericDriverNodeManager` fan-out consumes it the same way it consumes Galaxy / AB CIP / FOCAS sources — there is no scripted-alarm-specific code path in the server plumbing. From that point on, the flow into `AlarmConditionState` nodes, the `AlarmAck` session check, and the Historian sink is shared — see [AlarmTracking.md](AlarmTracking.md).
+
+Two mapping notes specific to this adapter:
+
+- `SubscribeAlarmsAsync` accepts a list of source-node-id filters, interpreted as Equipment-path prefixes. Empty list matches every alarm. Each emission is matched against every live subscription — the adapter keeps no per-subscription cursor.
+- `IAlarmSource.AcknowledgeAsync` does not carry a user identity. The adapter defaults the audit user to `"opcua-client"` so callers using the base interface still produce an audit entry. The server's Part 9 method handlers (Stream G) call the engine's richer `AcknowledgeAsync` / `ConfirmAsync` / `OneShotShelveAsync` / `TimedShelveAsync` / `UnshelveAsync` / `AddCommentAsync` directly with the authenticated principal instead.
+
+Emissions map into `AlarmEventArgs` as `AlarmType = Kind.ToString()`, `SourceNodeId = EquipmentPath`, `ConditionId = AlarmId`, `Message = resolved template string`, `Severity` carried verbatim, `SourceTimestampUtc = emission time`.
+
+## Composition
+
+`Phase7EngineComposer.Compose` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/Phase7EngineComposer.cs`) is the single call site that instantiates the engine. It takes the generation's `Script` / `VirtualTag` / `ScriptedAlarm` rows, the shared `CachedTagUpstreamSource`, an `IAlarmStateStore`, and an `IAlarmHistorianSink`, and returns a `Phase7ComposedSources` the caller owns. When `scriptedAlarms.Count > 0`:
+
+1. `ProjectScriptedAlarms` resolves each row's `PredicateScriptId` against the script dictionary and produces a `ScriptedAlarmDefinition` list. Unknown or disabled scripts throw immediately — the DB publish guarantees referential integrity but this is a belt-and-braces check.
+2. A `ScriptedAlarmEngine` is constructed with the upstream source, the store, a shared `ScriptLoggerFactory` keyed to `scripts-*.log`, and the root Serilog logger.
+3. `alarmEngine.OnEvent` is wired to `RouteToHistorianAsync`, which projects each emission into an `AlarmHistorianEvent` and enqueues it on the sink. Fire-and-forget — the SQLite store-and-forward sink is already non-blocking.
+4. `LoadAsync(alarmDefs)` runs synchronously on the startup thread: it compiles every predicate, subscribes to the union of predicate inputs and message-template tokens, seeds the value cache, loads persisted state, re-derives `ActiveState` from a fresh predicate evaluation, and starts the 5s shelving timer. Compile failures are aggregated into one `InvalidOperationException` so operators see every bad predicate in one startup log line rather than one at a time.
+5. A `ScriptedAlarmSource` is created for the event stream, and a `ScriptedAlarmReadable` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/ScriptedAlarmReadable.cs`) is created for OPC UA variable reads on the alarm's active-state node (task #245) — unknown alarm ids return `BadNodeIdUnknown` rather than silently reading `false`.
+
+Both engine and source are added to `Phase7ComposedSources.Disposables`, which `Phase7Composer` disposes on server shutdown.

 Driver-side data-change subscriptions live behind `ISubscribable` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.Abstractions/ISubscribable.cs`). The interface is deliberately mechanism-agnostic: it covers native subscriptions (Galaxy MXAccess advisory, OPC UA monitored items on an upstream server, TwinCAT ADS notifications) and driver-internal polled subscriptions (Modbus, AB CIP, S7, FOCAS). Core sees the same event shape regardless — drivers fire `OnDataChange` and Core dispatches to the matching OPC UA monitored items.
 
+## Driver vs virtual dispatch
+
+Per [ADR-002](v2/implementation/adr-002-driver-vs-virtual-dispatch.md), `DriverNodeManager` routes subscriptions across both driver tags and virtual (scripted) tags through the same `ISubscribable` contract. The per-variable `NodeSourceKind` (registered from `DriverAttributeInfo` at discovery) selects the backend:
+
+- `NodeSourceKind.Driver` — subscribes via the driver's `ISubscribable`, wrapped by `CapabilityInvoker` (the rest of this doc).
+- `NodeSourceKind.Virtual` — subscribes via `VirtualTagSource` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.VirtualTags/VirtualTagSource.cs`), which forwards change events emitted by `VirtualTagEngine` as `OnDataChange`. The ref-counting, initial-value, and transfer-restoration behaviour below applies identically.
+
+Because both kinds expose `ISubscribable`, Core's dispatch, ref-count map, and monitored-item fan-out are unchanged across the source branch.

+# Virtual Tags
+
+Virtual tags are OPC UA variable nodes whose values are computed by operator-authored C# scripts against other tags (driver or virtual). They live in the Equipment browse tree alongside driver-sourced variables: a client browsing `Enterprise/Site/Area/Line/Equipment/` sees one flat child list that mixes both kinds, and a read / subscribe on a virtual node looks identical to one on a driver node from the wire. The separation is server-side — `NodeScopeResolver` tags each variable's `NodeSource` (`Driver` / `Virtual` / `ScriptedAlarm`), and `DriverNodeManager` dispatches reads to different backends accordingly. See [ADR-002](v2/implementation/adr-002-driver-vs-virtual-dispatch.md) for the dispatch decision.
+
+The runtime is split across two projects: `Core.Scripting` holds the Roslyn sandbox + evaluator primitives that are reused by both virtual tags and scripted alarms; `Core.VirtualTags` holds the engine that owns the dependency graph, the evaluation pipeline, and the `ISubscribable` adapter the server dispatches to.
+
+## Roslyn script sandbox (`Core.Scripting`)
+
+User scripts are compiled via `Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp.Scripting` against a `ScriptContext` subclass. `ScriptGlobals<TContext>` exposes the context as a field named `ctx`, so scripts read `ctx.GetTag("...")` / `ctx.SetVirtualTag("...", ...)` / `ctx.Now` / `ctx.Logger` and return a value.
+
+### Compile pipeline (`ScriptEvaluator<TContext, TResult>`)
+
+`ScriptEvaluator.Compile(source)` is a three-step gate:
+
+1. **Roslyn compile** against `ScriptSandbox.Build(contextType)`. Throws `CompilationErrorException` on syntax / type errors.
+2. **`ForbiddenTypeAnalyzer.Analyze`** walks the syntax tree post-compile and resolves every referenced symbol against the deny-list. Throws `ScriptSandboxViolationException` with every offending source span attached. This is defence-in-depth: `ScriptOptions` alone cannot block every BCL namespace because .NET type forwarding routes types through assemblies the allow-list does permit.
+3. **Delegate materialization** — `script.CreateDelegate()`. Failures here are Roslyn-internal; user scripts don't reach this step.
+
+`ScriptSandbox.Build` allow-lists exactly: `System.Private.CoreLib` (primitives + `Math` + `Convert`), `System.Linq`, `Core.Abstractions` (for `DataValueSnapshot` / `DriverDataType`), `Core.Scripting` (for `ScriptContext` + `Deadband`), `Serilog` (for `ILogger`), and the concrete context type's assembly. Pre-imported namespaces: `System`, `System.Linq`, `ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.Abstractions`, `ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Core.Scripting`.
+
+`ForbiddenTypeAnalyzer.ForbiddenNamespacePrefixes` currently denies `System.IO`, `System.Net`, `System.Diagnostics`, `System.Reflection`, `System.Threading.Thread`, `System.Runtime.InteropServices`, `Microsoft.Win32`. Matching is by prefix against the resolved symbol's containing namespace, so `System.Net` catches `System.Net.Http.HttpClient` and every subnamespace. `System.Environment` is explicitly allowed.
+
+### Compile cache (`CompiledScriptCache<TContext, TResult>`)
+
+`ConcurrentDictionary<string, Lazy<ScriptEvaluator<...>>>` keyed on `SHA-256(UTF8(source))` rendered to hex. `Lazy<T>` with `ExecutionAndPublication` mode means two threads racing a miss compile exactly once. Failed compiles evict the entry so a corrected retry can succeed (used during Admin UI authoring). No capacity bound — scripts are operator-authored and bounded by the config DB. Whitespace changes miss the cache on purpose. `Clear()` is called on config-publish.
+
+### Per-evaluation timeout (`TimedScriptEvaluator<TContext, TResult>`)
+
+Wraps `ScriptEvaluator` with a wall-clock budget. Default `DefaultTimeout = 250ms`. Implementation pushes the inner `RunAsync` onto `Task.Run` (so a CPU-bound script can't hog the calling thread before `WaitAsync` registers its timeout) then awaits `runTask.WaitAsync(Timeout, ct)`. A `TimeoutException` from `WaitAsync` is wrapped as `ScriptTimeoutException`. Caller-supplied `CancellationToken` cancellation wins over the timeout and propagates as `OperationCanceledException` — so a shutdown cancel is not misclassified. **Known leak:** when a CPU-bound script times out, the underlying `ScriptRunner` keeps running on its thread-pool thread until the Roslyn runtime returns (documented trade-off; out-of-process evaluation is a v3 concern).
+
+### Script logger plumbing
+
+`ScriptLoggerFactory.Create(scriptName)` returns a per-script Serilog logger with the `ScriptName` structured property bound (constant `ScriptLoggerFactory.ScriptNameProperty`). The root script logger is typically a rolling file sink to `scripts-*.log`. `ScriptLogCompanionSink` is attached to the root pipeline and mirrors script events at `Error` or higher into the main `opcua-*.log` at `Warning` level — operators see script errors in the primary log without drowning it in script-authored Info/Debug noise. Exceptions and the `ScriptName` property are preserved in the mirror.
+
+### Static dependency extraction (`DependencyExtractor`)
+
+Parses the script source with `CSharpSyntaxTree.ParseText` (script kind), walks invocation expressions, and records every `ctx.GetTag("literal")` and `ctx.SetVirtualTag("literal", ...)` call. The first argument **must** be a string literal — variables, concatenation, interpolation, and method-returned strings are rejected at publish with a `DependencyRejection` carrying the exact `TextSpan`. This is how the engine builds its change-trigger graph statically; scripts cannot smuggle a dependency past the extractor.
+
+## Virtual tag engine (`Core.VirtualTags`)
+
+### `VirtualTagDefinition`
+
+One row per operator-authored tag. Fields: `Path` (UNS browse path; also the engine's internal id), `DataType` (`DriverDataType` enum; the evaluator coerces the script's return value to this and mismatch surfaces as `BadTypeMismatch`), `ScriptSource` (Roslyn C# script text), `ChangeTriggered` (re-evaluate on any input delta), `TimerInterval` (optional periodic cadence; null disables), `Historize` (route every evaluation result to `IHistoryWriter`). Change-trigger and timer are independent — a tag can be either, both, or neither.
+
+### `VirtualTagContext`
+
+Subclass of `ScriptContext`. Constructed fresh per evaluation over a per-run read cache — scripts cannot stash mutable state across runs on `ctx`. `GetTag(path)` serves from the cache; missing-path reads return a `BadNodeIdUnknown`-quality snapshot. `SetVirtualTag(path, value)` routes through the engine's `OnScriptSetVirtualTag` callback so cross-tag writes still participate in change-trigger cascades (writes to non-virtual / non-registered paths log a warning and drop). `Now` is an injectable clock; production wires `DateTime.UtcNow`, tests pin it.
+
+### `DependencyGraph`
+
+Directed graph of tag paths. Edges run from a virtual tag to each path it reads. Unregistered paths (driver tags) are implicit leaves; leaf validity is checked elsewhere against the authoritative catalog. Two operations:
+
+- **`TopologicalSort()`** — Kahn's algorithm. Produces evaluation order such that every node appears after its registered (virtual) dependencies. Throws `DependencyCycleException` (with every cycle, not just one) on offense.
+- **`TransitiveDependentsInOrder(nodeId)`** — DFS collects every reachable dependent of a changed upstream then sorts by topological rank. Used by the cascade dispatcher so a single upstream delta recomputes the full downstream closure in one serial pass without needing a second iteration.
+
+Cycle detection uses an **iterative** Tarjan's SCC implementation (no recursion, deep graphs cannot stack-overflow). Cycles of length > 1 and self-loops both reject; leaf references cannot form cycles with internal nodes.
+
+### `VirtualTagEngine` lifecycle
+
+- **`Load(definitions)`** — clears prior state, compiles every script through `DependencyExtractor.Extract` + `ScriptEvaluator.Compile` (wrapped in `TimedScriptEvaluator`), registers each in `_tags` + `_graph`, runs `TopologicalSort` (cycle check), then for every upstream (non-virtual) path subscribes via `ITagUpstreamSource.SubscribeTag` and seeds `_valueCache` with `ReadTag`. Throws `InvalidOperationException` aggregating every compile failure at once so operators see the whole set; throws `DependencyCycleException` on cycles. Re-entrant — supports config-publish reloads by disposing the prior upstream subscriptions first.
+- **`EvaluateAllAsync(ct)`** — evaluates every tag once in topological order. Called at startup so virtual tags have a defined initial value before subscriptions start.
+- **`EvaluateOneAsync(path, ct)`** — single-tag evaluation. Entry point for `TimerTriggerScheduler` + tests.
+- **`Read(path)`** — synchronous last-known-value lookup from `_valueCache`. Returns `BadNodeIdUnknown`-quality for unregistered paths.
+- **`Subscribe(path, observer)`** — register a change observer; returns `IDisposable`. Does **not** emit a seed value.
+- **`OnUpstreamChange(path, value)`** (internal, wired from the upstream subscription) — updates cache, notifies observers, launches `CascadeAsync` fire-and-forget so the driver's dispatcher isn't blocked.
+
+Evaluations are **serial across all tags** — `_evalGate` is a `SemaphoreSlim(1, 1)` held around every `EvaluateInternalAsync`. Parallelism is deferred (Phase 7 plan decision #19). Rationale: serial execution preserves the "earlier topological nodes computed before later dependents" invariant when two cascades race. Per-tag error isolation: a script exception or timeout sets that tag's quality to `BadInternalError` and logs a structured error; other tags keep evaluating. `OperationCanceledException` is re-thrown (shutdown path).
+
+Result coercion: `CoerceResult` maps the script's return value to the declared `DriverDataType` via `Convert.ToXxx`. Coercion failure returns null which the outer pipeline maps to `BadInternalError`; `BadTypeMismatch` is documented in the definition shape (`VirtualTagDefinition.DataType` doc) rather than emitted distinctly today.
+
+`IHistoryWriter.Record` fires per evaluation when `Historize = true`. The default `NullHistoryWriter` drops silently.
+
+### `TimerTriggerScheduler`
+
+Groups `VirtualTagDefinition`s by `TimerInterval`, one `System.Threading.Timer` per unique interval. Each tick evaluates the group's paths serially via `VirtualTagEngine.EvaluateOneAsync`. Errors per-tag log and continue. `Dispose()` cancels an internal `CancellationTokenSource` and disposes every timer. Independent of the change-trigger path — a tag with both triggers fires from both scheduling sources.
+
+### `ITagUpstreamSource`
+
+What the engine pulls driver-tag values from. Reads are **synchronous** because user scripts call `ctx.GetTag(path)` inline — a blocking wire call per evaluation would kill throughput. Implementations are expected to serve from a last-known-value cache populated by subscription callbacks. The server's production implementation is `CachedTagUpstreamSource` (see Composition below).
+
+### `IHistoryWriter`
+
+Fire-and-forget sink for evaluation results when `VirtualTagDefinition.Historize = true`. Implementations must queue internally and drain on their own cadence — a slow historian must not block script evaluation. `NullHistoryWriter.Instance` is the no-op default. Today no production writer is wired into the virtual-tag path; scripted-alarm emissions flow through `Core.AlarmHistorian` via `Phase7EngineComposer.RouteToHistorianAsync` (a separate concern; see [AlarmTracking.md](AlarmTracking.md)).
+
+## Dispatch integration
+
+Per [ADR-002](v2/implementation/adr-002-driver-vs-virtual-dispatch.md) Option B, there is a single `DriverNodeManager`. `VirtualTagSource` implements `IReadable` + `ISubscribable` over a `VirtualTagEngine`:
+
+- `ReadAsync` fans each path through `engine.Read(...)`.
+- `SubscribeAsync` calls `engine.Subscribe` per path and forwards each engine observer callback as an `OnDataChange` event; emits an initial-data callback per OPC UA convention.
+- `UnsubscribeAsync` disposes every per-path engine subscription it holds.
+- **`IWritable` is deliberately not implemented.** `DriverNodeManager.IsWriteAllowedBySource` rejects OPC UA client writes to virtual nodes with `BadUserAccessDenied` before any dispatch — scripts are the only write path via `ctx.SetVirtualTag`.
+
+`DriverNodeManager.SelectReadable(source, ...)` picks the `IReadable` based on `NodeSourceKind`. See [ReadWriteOperations.md](ReadWriteOperations.md) and [Subscriptions.md](Subscriptions.md) for the broader dispatch framing.
+
+## Upstream reads + history
+
+`ITagUpstreamSource` and `IHistoryWriter` are the two ports the engine requires from its host. Both live in `Core.VirtualTags`. In the Server process:
+
+- **`CachedTagUpstreamSource`** (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/CachedTagUpstreamSource.cs`) implements the interface (and the parallel `Core.ScriptedAlarms.ITagUpstreamSource` — identical shape, distinct namespace). A `ConcurrentDictionary<path, DataValueSnapshot>` cache. `Push(path, snapshot)` updates the cache and fans out synchronously to every observer. Reads of never-pushed paths return `BadNodeIdUnknown` quality (`UpstreamNotConfigured = 0x80340000`).
+- **`DriverSubscriptionBridge`** (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/DriverSubscriptionBridge.cs`) feeds the cache. For each registered `ISubscribable` driver it batches a single `SubscribeAsync` for every fullRef the script graph references, installs an `OnDataChange` handler that translates driver-opaque fullRefs back to UNS paths via a reverse map, and pushes each delta into `CachedTagUpstreamSource`. Unsubscribes on dispose. The bridge suppresses `OTOPCUA0001` (the Roslyn analyzer that requires `ISubscribable` callers to go through `CapabilityInvoker`) on the documented basis that this is a lifecycle wiring, not per-evaluation hot path.
+- **`IHistoryWriter`** — no production implementation is currently wired for virtual tags; `VirtualTagEngine` gets `NullHistoryWriter` by default from `Phase7EngineComposer`.
+
+## Composition
+
+`Phase7Composer` (`src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Phase7/Phase7Composer.cs`) is an `IAsyncDisposable` injected into `OpcUaServerService`:
+
+1. `PrepareAsync(generationId, ct)` — called after the bootstrap generation loads and before `OpcUaApplicationHost.StartAsync`. Reads the `Script` / `VirtualTag` / `ScriptedAlarm` rows for that generation from the config DB (`OtOpcUaConfigDbContext`). Empty-config fast path returns `Phase7ComposedSources.Empty`.
+2. Constructs a `CachedTagUpstreamSource` + hands it to `Phase7EngineComposer.Compose`.
+3. `Phase7EngineComposer.Compose` projects `VirtualTag` rows into `VirtualTagDefinition`s (joining `Script` rows by `ScriptId`), instantiates `VirtualTagEngine`, calls `Load`, wraps in `VirtualTagSource`.
+4. Builds a `DriverFeed` per driver by mapping the driver's `EquipmentNamespaceContent` to `UNS path → driver fullRef` (path format `/{area}/{line}/{equipment}/{tag}` matching the `EquipmentNodeWalker` browse tree so script literals match the operator-visible UNS), then starts `DriverSubscriptionBridge`.
+5. Returns `Phase7ComposedSources` with the `VirtualTagSource` cast as `IReadable`. `OpcUaServerService` passes it to `OpcUaApplicationHost` which threads it into `DriverNodeManager` as `virtualReadable`.
+
+`DisposeAsync` tears down the bridge first (no more events into the cache), then the engines (cascades + timer ticks stop), then the owned SQLite historian sink if any.
+
+Definition reload on config publish: `VirtualTagEngine.Load` is re-entrant — a future config-publish handler can call it with a new definition set. That handler is not yet wired; today engine composition happens once per service start against the bootstrapped generation.

+
+PR abcip-5.1 + 5.2 ship **non-transparent** HSBY (Hot-Standby) awareness
+to the AB CIP driver. Each device may declare a partner gateway; when both
+gateways are up the driver concurrently probes a role tag on each chassis,
+reports which one is currently Active, and routes reads / writes through
+that chassis automatically.
+
+- **PR abcip-5.1** — gathers + reports the role of each chassis through
+  driver diagnostics. See [Role-tag detection matrix](#role-tag-detection-matrix)
+  + [Active-resolution rules](#active-resolution-rules).

+  [Failover behaviour](#failover-behaviour-pr-52) +

+
+## When to use HSBY paired IPs
+
+You have a redundant **ControlLogix** chassis pair (1756-RM redundancy
+module, two CPUs, one acting + one standby) and the SCADA / OPC UA layer
+needs to keep talking to *whichever chassis is currently Active* without an
+operator manually re-pointing the connection.
+
+Pre-5.1 the driver only knew about a single `HostAddress`. After a
+hot-standby switch-over, the standby (now Active) carried a **different IP**
+and the driver kept probing the dead-but-was-Active address until someone
+edited the config.
+
+PR abcip-5.1 closes the visibility half of that gap by reading the role tag
+on both chassis. PR abcip-5.2 closes the routing half by re-pointing
+`ResolveHost` at the Active address each tick + invalidating the per-tag
+runtime cache + write-coalescer state on every flip.

+                "ProbeIntervalMs": 2000
+            }
+        }
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+| Field | Default | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `PartnerHostAddress` | `null` | Canonical `ab://gateway[:port]/cip-path` of the partner chassis. `null` = no HSBY pair; the driver behaves exactly like every pre-5.1 build. |
+| `Hsby.Enabled` | `false` | Master switch. When `false` (or `Hsby` omitted) no role probing happens, even if `PartnerHostAddress` is set. |
+| `Hsby.RoleTagAddress` | `WallClockTime.SyncStatus` | Address of the role tag on each chassis. See [role-tag detection matrix](#role-tag-detection-matrix). |
+| `Hsby.ProbeIntervalMs` | `2000` | How often each chassis is sampled. 2 s is a good default — tight enough to detect a switch-over within one Admin-UI refresh, loose enough to leave headroom for the regular probe loop. |
+
+## Feature-flag gate (`Redundancy.Hsby.Enabled`)
+
+`Hsby.Enabled = false` (the default) is the off-switch for the entire
+feature. The role-probe loop never starts, the diagnostics keys are not
+emitted, and the driver behaves identically to a pre-5.1 build. This is the
+gate to flip when an operator wants to roll the feature out cautiously
+across a fleet — set `Hsby.Enabled = true` per-device in driver config (no
+build flag, no env var).
+
+When the gate is on but the partner gateway is unreachable, the role-probe
+loop reports `HsbyRole.Unknown` for the partner each tick. The primary's
+role still drives the active-chassis resolution; the operator sees the
+partner's role as Unknown in the Admin UI / driver diagnostics, which is the
+correct surface for "we can't reach the standby chassis right now."
+
+## Role-tag detection matrix
+
+| Firmware / fronts | Address | Decode |
+|---|---|---|
+| **v20 / v24 / v32+ ControlLogix HSBY** | `WallClockTime.SyncStatus` (DINT) | `0` = Standby, `1` = Synchronized / Active, `2` = Disqualified, anything else = Unknown |
+| **PLC-5 / SLC500 status-byte fallback** | `S:34` Module Status word | bit 0 = "this chassis is Active". Bit set → `Active`; clear → `Standby` |
+| **Custom user role tag** | any DINT-typed CIP path | Same matrix as `WallClockTime.SyncStatus` (0 / 1 / 2). Out-of-range values → Unknown. |
+
+`AbCipHsbyRoleProber.MapValueToRole` is the value-to-role mapper; unit tests
+in `tests/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbCip.Tests/AbCipHsbyTests.cs` pin every
+row of the matrix.
+
+## What gets reported
+
+The driver surfaces three diagnostics counters per HSBY-enabled device
+(visible via `driver-diagnostics` RPC + the Admin UI):
+
+| Counter | Value |
+|---|---|
+| `AbCip.HsbyActive` | `1` if primary is Active, `2` if partner is Active, `0` if neither (or HSBY off) |
+| `AbCip.HsbyPrimaryRole` | `(int)HsbyRole` — `0` = Unknown, `1` = Active, `2` = Standby, `3` = Disqualified |
+| `AbCip.HsbyPartnerRole` | Same encoding as `HsbyPrimaryRole`, observed on the partner chassis |
+| `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` (PR 5.2) | Total number of `ActiveAddress` transitions the probe loop has observed across every HSBY-enabled device on this driver. Each increment maps to one runtime-cache invalidation + write-coalescer reset. |
+
+When more than one HSBY pair is configured on the same driver instance the
+flat keys are scoped per primary host: `AbCip.HsbyActive[ab://10.0.0.5/1,0]`,
+etc.
+
+The `DeviceState.ActiveAddress` field (internal; surfaced via
+`HsbyActive` diagnostics) is the address PR 5.2 routes through
+`ResolveHost` + uses to scope the per-host bulkhead / breaker key.
+See [Failover behaviour](#failover-behaviour-pr-52) for the runtime
+implications.
+
+### Active-resolution rules
+
+| Primary role | Partner role | `ActiveAddress` resolution |
+|---|---|---|
+| Active | Standby / Disqualified / Unknown | primary |
+| Standby / Disqualified / Unknown | Active | partner |
+| Active | Active (split-brain) | **primary wins**, warning logged |
+| Standby + Standby | Standby + Standby | `null` — PR 5.2's `ResolveHost` falls back to the configured primary; the existing dial flow surfaces `BadCommunicationError` if the primary is also down. See [Both-stuck](#both-stuck-no-chassis-active). |
+| Unknown + Unknown | Unknown + Unknown | `null` (same fallback as Standby + Standby) |
+
+Split-brain (both chassis claim Active simultaneously) is a real
+production failure mode — typically a redundancy-module misconfiguration or
+a partial network split. The driver picks primary deterministically + emits
+a warning through `AbCipDriverOptions.OnWarning` so operators see it in the
+log.
+
+## CLI flags
+
+The `otopcua-abcip-cli` tool exposes the HSBY plumbing through two surfaces
+(see [Driver.AbCip.Cli.md](../Driver.AbCip.Cli.md) for the full CLI guide):
+
+- `--partner <gateway>` — global flag on every command. Sets
+  `PartnerHostAddress` + auto-enables `Hsby.Enabled = true` so the role
+  probe runs alongside any read / write / subscribe.
+- `hsby-status` — dedicated command that prints which chassis is
+  currently Active. Reads the role tag on both gateways for a few ticks +
+  prints the `(primary, partner, active)` tuple.
+
+```powershell
+# Print which chassis is Active right now
+otopcua-abcip-cli hsby-status -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 --partner ab://10.0.0.6/1,0
+
+# Subscribe through the active chassis (PR 5.2 follow-up — today the
+# subscribe stays pointed at the primary; the role probe runs alongside).
+otopcua-abcip-cli subscribe -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0 --partner ab://10.0.0.6/1,0 \
+    -t Motor01_Speed --type Real -i 500
+```
+
+## Test coverage
+
+- **Unit** (`tests/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbCip.Tests/AbCipHsbyTests.cs`):
+    - Pure `MapValueToRole` matrix (WallClockTime.SyncStatus + S:34 bit
+      mask + Unknown values).
+    - End-to-end driver loop: primary Active / partner Standby resolves to
+      primary; both Active resolves to primary with a warning; both
+      Standby clears `ActiveAddress`; primary read failure routes to
+      partner.
+    - Diagnostics surface (`AbCip.HsbyActive` / `HsbyPrimaryRole` /
+      `HsbyPartnerRole`).
+    - DTO JSON round-trip (`PartnerHostAddress` + `Hsby.{Enabled,
+      RoleTagAddress, ProbeIntervalMs}` survive deserialise → driver →
+      `DeviceState`).
+    - `Hsby.Enabled = false` → no role probing.
+- **Integration** (`tests/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbCip.IntegrationTests/`):
+    - `AbCipHsbyRoleProberTests.cs` (PR 5.1) and
+      `AbCipHsbyFailoverTests.cs` (PR 5.2) — both **skipped by default**
+      (`Assert.Skip`). `ab_server` cannot emulate a ControlLogix HSBY
+      pair (no `WallClockTime.SyncStatus`, no second chassis concept).
+      The Docker `paired` profile (PR 5.1) brings up two `ab_server`
+      instances + a stub `hsby-mux` sidecar so the topology is
+      documented, but a patched `ab_server` image that actually serves
+      the role tag is still on the follow-up list.
+    - Trait `Category=Hsby` so `dotnet test --filter Category=Hsby`
+      finds them once they're promoted.
+- **End-to-end** (`scripts/e2e/test-abcip-hsby.ps1`, PR 5.2):
+    - Paired-fixture variant of `test-abcip.ps1`. Subscribes to a tag
+      through the OPC UA server, flips the active chassis mid-stream
+      via the `hsby-mux` sidecar's `POST /flip` endpoint, asserts the
+      stream survives + `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` increments. Gated
+      on operator-supplied `BridgeNodeId` + a running paired fixture;
+      ships unwired into `test-all.ps1` until the patched `ab_server`
+      lands.
+
+## Failover behaviour (PR 5.2)
+
+PR 5.2 wires `DeviceState.ActiveAddress` into the read / write hot path
+through `AbCipDriver.ResolveHost` and the runtime-cache lifecycle. After
+the role-probe loop (PR 5.1) detects an active-address transition the
+driver re-points every wire-level operation at the now-Active chassis
+without operator intervention.
+
+### What flips on a failover
+
+| Aspect | Pre-flip | Post-flip |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ResolveHost(tag)` return | primary `HostAddress` | the partner address (when partner is now Active) |
+| Per-tag libplctag handles in `DeviceState.Runtimes` | created against primary gateway | dropped on flip; lazily re-created against the partner gateway on next read / write |
+| Parent-DINT RMW handles in `DeviceState.ParentRuntimes` | primary gateway | dropped on flip; same re-create-on-demand path |
+| `AbCipWriteCoalescer` per-device cache | last-known-written values from the primary | reset; the first write of any value to the partner pays the full round-trip |
+| `LogicalInstanceMap` (Logical-mode `@tags` walk) | populated for primary | cleared; the next read on a Logical-mode device re-walks `@tags` against the partner |
+| Per-host bulkhead key (Polly bulkhead + breaker, plan decision #144) | keyed on primary `HostAddress` | keyed on the new active address — the partner gets its own fresh breaker state instead of inheriting a tripped breaker from the now-standby |
+| `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` diagnostic | 0 | incremented by 1 on every transition observed by the probe loop |
+
+### How the invalidation runs
+
+PR 5.2 introduces an internal `OnActiveAddressChanged` event raised by
+`HsbyProbeLoopAsync` on every `DeviceState.ActiveAddress` transition. The
+driver subscribes to it from its own constructor; the handler
+(`HandleActiveAddressChanged`) does the cache invalidation in one place:
+
+1. Disposes every entry in `DeviceState.Runtimes` and
+   `DeviceState.ParentRuntimes`, then clears both dicts. Disposed
+   `IAbCipTagRuntime` instances release their underlying libplctag
+   handles so the native heap doesn't leak.
+2. Clears `DeviceState.LogicalInstanceMap` and resets
+   `LogicalWalkComplete = false` so the next read on a Logical-mode
+   device re-fires the `@tags` symbol walk against the new chassis.
+3. Calls `AbCipWriteCoalescer.Reset(deviceHostAddress)` so cached
+   "we already wrote 42" decisions don't stale-suppress the first
+   partner-side write.
+4. Resets `DeviceState.RuntimesAddress = null` so subsequent
+   diagnostics observers see a fresh stamp on the next runtime
+   creation.
+5. `Interlocked.Increment` on the driver-wide
+   `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` counter.
+
+The handler is idempotent — a second event for the same address change
+is harmless because the dicts are already empty + the coalescer reset
+is itself idempotent.
+
+### Bulkhead key semantics
+
+The per-host resilience pipeline (Polly bulkhead + circuit breaker, plan
+decision #144) keys on whatever `IPerCallHostResolver.ResolveHost`
+returns. PR 5.2 changes that resolver so an HSBY-failed-over device
+returns the partner's address, which means:
+
+- The **device-state lookup** (`_devices.TryGetValue`) keeps using the
+  configured primary `HostAddress` as the dictionary key — that key
+  never changes for the lifetime of a device, so multi-device
+  configurations stay routable.
+- The **resilience pipeline** (Polly bulkhead, breaker, retry policies)
+  receives the active address as the host-name dimension. The standby
+  chassis's tripped breaker (if its primary went away) doesn't bleed
+  over to the partner; the partner gets fresh limits + a closed
+  breaker.
+
+When HSBY is disabled (`Hsby.Enabled = false`) `ResolveHost` returns the
+configured primary `HostAddress` exactly as it always has — pre-5.2
+behaviour, no double-key risk.
+
+## Failure-mode walkthrough
+
+PR 5.2 adds three failover surface areas to reason about. The table
+below summarises the behaviour the driver reports + how an operator
+can inspect it.
+
+### Primary-stuck (primary unreachable, partner Active)
+
+The primary chassis goes away (network partition, power loss, a stuck
+Forward Open). The role-probe loop reads `HsbyRole.Unknown` for the
+primary and `HsbyRole.Active` for the partner.
+
+| Surface | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `DeviceState.ActiveAddress` | partner address |
+| `DeviceState.PrimaryRole` | `Unknown` |
+| `DeviceState.PartnerRole` | `Active` |
+| `ResolveHost(tag)` | partner address |
+| Reads / writes | route through partner gateway transparently |
+| `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` | incremented when the address transitioned away from the primary |
+| `AbCip.HsbyActive` | `2` (partner is the active chassis) |
+| Operator action | none required for routing; investigate why the primary is unreachable through the connectivity-probe loop's `_System/_ConnectionStatus` for the device |
+
+### Secondary-stuck (partner unreachable, primary Active)
+
+The partner chassis goes away (its OPC UA server is down, its IP is
+unreachable, the redundancy module unhitched it). The probe loop reads
+`HsbyRole.Active` for the primary and `HsbyRole.Unknown` for the partner.
+
+| Surface | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `DeviceState.ActiveAddress` | primary address (no transition; this is the steady state) |
+| `DeviceState.PrimaryRole` | `Active` |
+| `DeviceState.PartnerRole` | `Unknown` |
+| `ResolveHost(tag)` | primary address |
+| Reads / writes | route through primary gateway exactly as in a non-HSBY deployment |
+| `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` | unchanged — no flip happened |
+| `AbCip.HsbyActive` | `1` (primary is the active chassis) |
+| Operator action | investigate why the partner is unreachable; the operational risk is that a future primary-side outage has no fall-back |
+
+### Both-stuck (no chassis Active)
+
+Both chassis report `Standby` / `Disqualified` / `Unknown` (a
+redundancy-module misconfiguration, both controllers in Program mode,
+or both unreachable).
+
+| Surface | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `DeviceState.ActiveAddress` | `null` |
+| `ResolveHost(tag)` | falls back to the configured primary `HostAddress` |
+| Reads / writes | dispatched to the configured primary; a stuck primary surfaces `BadCommunicationError` per the existing dial flow |
+| `AbCip.HsbyActive` | `0` (no chassis Active) |
+| `AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount` | incremented when the transition `Active → null` happened |
+| Operator action | investigate the redundancy module / mode keys; the SCADA layer sees stuck-or-bad-quality reads, not incorrect routing |
+
+The "fall back to primary on null Active" choice is deliberate. Routing
+all reads to a deterministic chassis (the configured primary) keeps the
+breaker key + bulkhead state stable while the operator diagnoses the
+double-down outage; the alternative (round-robin / partner) would just
+trip both breakers in turn and obscure which chassis is the real
+problem.
+
+## Follow-ups (beyond PR 5.2)
+
+- **Patched `ab_server` image** — add a writable `WallClockTime.SyncStatus`
+  tag (or a separate Python shim) so the Docker `paired` profile can
+  exercise the wire-level role probe + the
+  `tests/.../IntegrationTests/AbCipHsbyFailoverTests.cs` scaffold can
+  flip its `Assert.Skip` for a real integration assertion.
+- **`hsby-mux` REST endpoint** — `POST /flip {"active": "primary"}` writes
+  `1` to the chosen chassis + `0` to the other so integration tests +
+  `scripts/e2e/test-abcip-hsby.ps1` can drive switch-overs
+  deterministically.
+- **GuardLogix HSBY** — same role-tag plumbing applies; verify against a
+  real 1756-L8xS pair when one is on-site.

+# AB CIP — Operability knobs
+
+Phase 4 of the AB CIP driver plan introduces operator-tunable behaviour that
+changes how the driver schedules per-tag traffic, deduplicates updates, and
+surfaces health — knobs that an operator typically reaches for *after* the
+address space is in place and the deployment is past the green-field phase.
+The Phase 3 doc (`AbCip-Performance.md`) covers connection-shape and
+read-strategy knobs; this doc is the home for the per-tag scheduling and
+operability levers as PRs land.
+
+PR abcip-4.1 ships the first knob: per-tag **Scan Rate** (Kepware-parity scan
+classes).
+
+## Per-tag scan rate
+
+### What it is
+
+A per-tag override of the OPC UA subscription's `publishingInterval`. The AB
+CIP driver mirrors the Galaxy hierarchy as a single OPC UA address space, so
+every tag served from one driver normally ticks at the publishing interval the
+client requested when it created the Subscription. This knob lets specific
+tags publish at a different cadence — fast HMI tags at 100 ms, batch /
+historian tags at 1–10 s — without forcing the operator to split tags into
+separate subscriptions or driver instances.
+
+It is the Kepware "scan classes" model expressed per-tag. The same shape is
+already shipped in the S7 driver (`S7TagDefinition.ScanGroup`) and the AB
+Legacy / TwinCAT drivers; AB CIP adopts a leaner per-tag-only form because the
+CIP single-connection model means the practical knob a deployment reaches for
+is "this one tag, faster", not "every tag in this group".
+
+### How it interacts with OPC UA publishingInterval
+
+OPC UA semantics:
+
+- The Subscription's `publishingInterval` is the *upper bound* on how often
+  the server publishes a NotificationMessage. Each MonitoredItem also has its
+  own `samplingInterval`; that's where this knob lands.
+- A per-tag `samplingInterval` shorter than the Subscription's
+  `publishingInterval` means the server samples faster but only publishes at
+  the next Subscription tick — clients may receive multiple values for one
+  tag in a single Publish response.
+- A per-tag `samplingInterval` longer than the Subscription's
+  `publishingInterval` is legal too — the server simply skips ticks for that
+  tag.
+
+AB CIP-side: the driver's `SubscribeAsync` receives one `publishingInterval`
+plus a list of tag references. With per-tag `ScanRateMs` it buckets the input
+list by resolved interval and registers one `PollGroupEngine` subscription per
+bucket. Each bucket runs an independent timer, so a 100 ms tag never waits
+for a 1000 ms tag's `Task.Delay` to expire.
+
+### Override knob
+
+`AbCipTagDefinition.ScanRateMs` (`int?`, default `null`). `null` = use the
+subscription's default `publishingInterval` (legacy behaviour). Bind via
+driver config JSON:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Tags": [
+    {
+      "Name": "Motor1.Speed",
+      "DeviceHostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "TagPath": "Motor1.Speed",
+      "DataType": "DInt",
+      "ScanRateMs": 100
+    },
+    {
+      "Name": "Motor1.RunHours",
+      "DeviceHostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "TagPath": "Motor1.RunHours",
+      "DataType": "DInt",
+      "ScanRateMs": 5000
+    },
+    {
+      "Name": "Motor1.NamePlate",
+      "DeviceHostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "TagPath": "Motor1.NamePlate",
+      "DataType": "String"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Result: three buckets — 100 ms, 5000 ms, and the subscription default for
+`NamePlate`. UDT members inherit the parent tag's `ScanRateMs` at fan-out
+time, so a UDT declared at 100 ms publishes every member at 100 ms without
+the operator having to repeat the override on each member.
+
+### Floor and degenerate cases
+
+- `PollGroupEngine` floors every bucket at **100 ms** — a `ScanRateMs: 25`
+  is clamped up. The floor matches the Modbus / S7 / TwinCAT floors and
+  protects the wire from sub-mailbox-scan polling.
+- `ScanRateMs: 0` and negative values are treated as unset — the tag falls
+  back to the subscription default. Mis-typed config degrades, doesn't fault.
+- A `ScanRateMs` equal to the subscription default collapses into the same
+  bucket as plain tags. The driver doesn't fragment poll loops when the
+  override is redundant.
+- Tags whose names don't appear in the driver's tag map (typo / discovery
+  miss) fall through to the subscription default — same "config typo
+  degrades" stance as the rest of the driver.
+
+### Wire impact
+
+Per-bucket independent timers do **not** parallelise CIP traffic. The driver
+serializes wire-side reads through its per-device libplctag handles, so a
+fast bucket and a slow bucket trade off against each other on the wire — the
+multi-rate split decouples *cadence* (the 100 ms bucket isn't queued behind
+the 1000 ms bucket's `Task.Delay`), not *throughput*. The wire still moves
+one CIP request at a time per device.
+
+If you're reading a large tag set and the slow bucket starves the fast
+bucket, the lever is `AbCipDeviceOptions.ConnectionSize` (Phase 3) — pack
+more tags into one CIP RTT so the slow bucket finishes faster. Per-tag scan
+rate is a *scheduling* knob, not a *throughput* knob.
+
+### Comparison to Kepware scan classes
+
+| Kepware concept | AB CIP equivalent |
+|---|---|
+| Scan class table (named groups → rate) | implicit: each distinct `ScanRateMs` value is its own bucket |
+| Default scan class | OPC UA Subscription's `publishingInterval` |
+| Per-tag scan class assignment | `AbCipTagDefinition.ScanRateMs` |
+| "Scan mode: Respect client" | always — the OPC UA `publishingInterval` is the default |
+| "Force write" / "Write through cache" | not exposed — AB CIP writes always go to the wire |
+
+The leaner shape (per-tag rate, not named groups) keeps the JSON config flat
+and reflects how operators tend to use the knob in practice — a handful of
+"this specific tag needs to be fast" overrides on top of a sensible default,
+rather than a separate tier of scan-class definitions.
+
+### Verification
+
+- **Unit**: `AbCipPerTagScanRateTests` (`tests/.../AbCip.Tests`). Asserts
+  bucketing math, default-rate collapse, UDT member inheritance, JSON DTO
+  round-trip, and end-to-end cadence against the in-process fake.
+- **Integration**: `AbCipPerTagScanRateTests`
+  (`tests/.../AbCip.IntegrationTests`). Drives two tags at 100 ms / 1000 ms
+  against a live `ab_server` and asserts the bucket count + each tag receives
+  the initial-data push.
+- **E2E**: `scripts/e2e/test-abcip.ps1` — see the *PerTagScanRate* assertion.
+
+### Cross-references
+
+- `docs/Driver.AbCip.Cli.md` — there is no CLI surface change for this knob;
+  scan rate is a config-time concern.
+- `docs/drivers/AbCip-Performance.md` — Phase 3 throughput knobs that pair
+  with per-tag scan rate when a slow bucket starves a fast one.
+- S7 driver `ScanGroup` model in `src/.../S7DriverOptions.cs` — the
+  named-group form of the same idea.
+
+## Write deadband / write-on-change
+
+PR abcip-4.2 ships the second operability knob: per-tag write coalescing,
+the *write-side* companion to the read-side deadband already shipped at the
+OPC UA monitored-item layer. The driver remembers the value last
+successfully written for a tag and can suppress redundant or below-threshold
+follow-up writes — they return `Good` to the OPC UA client without ever
+hitting the wire.
+
+### What it is
+
+- **`AbCipTagDefinition.WriteDeadband`** (`double?`, default `null`) —
+  numeric absolute-difference threshold. When set, a write whose
+  `|new − last|` is below the deadband is suppressed.
+- **`AbCipTagDefinition.WriteOnChange`** (`bool`, default `false`) —
+  equality gate. When set, a write whose value equals the last successfully
+  written value is suppressed.
+
+Both knobs combine on the same tag. For numerics, the deadband path takes
+priority; the equality fallback covers the cases the deadband doesn't (BOOL
+setpoints, STRING constants, `WriteDeadband=0`, etc).
+
+### Worked setpoint-jitter example
+
+A motor speed setpoint published from an HMI tends to wobble by a few
+ticks even when the operator hasn't touched it — UI rounding, Modbus
+gateway re-encoding, RPN script noise. With `WriteDeadband: 0.5`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Tags": [
+    {
+      "Name": "Motor1.Speed.SP",
+      "DeviceHostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "TagPath": "Motor1.Speed.SP",
+      "DataType": "Real",
+      "WriteDeadband": 0.5
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Sequence of writes from the HMI (one every 100 ms, no operator input):
+
+| Time | Value | `\|new − last\|` | Wire? |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| 0 ms | 50.0 | n/a (first) | yes |
+| 100 ms | 50.2 | 0.2 < 0.5 | suppressed |
+| 200 ms | 50.3 | 0.3 < 0.5 | suppressed |
+| 300 ms | 50.6 | 0.6 ≥ 0.5 | yes |
+| 400 ms | 50.6 | 0.0 < 0.5 | suppressed |
+| 500 ms | 51.5 | 0.9 ≥ 0.5 | yes |
+
+Three writes hit the wire; three are suppressed. The OPC UA client sees
+`Good` on every call. The PLC sees only the values that actually crossed
+the deadband.
+
+### Combining with WriteOnChange
+
+A digital reset bit driven by a UI that pulses it at every cycle:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Name": "Conveyor.Reset",
+  "DeviceHostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+  "TagPath": "Conveyor.Reset",
+  "DataType": "Bool",
+  "WriteOnChange": true
+}
+```
+
+Three consecutive `false → false → false` writes from the UI collapse to
+one wire write (`false`, the first). When the operator clicks the reset
+button (`true`), that write passes; subsequent `true → true` repeats
+suppress until the UI clears it back to `false`.
+
+Numeric tags can also opt into both: `WriteDeadband: 0.5` plus
+`WriteOnChange: true` is well-defined — the deadband suppresses jitter, the
+equality gate suppresses exact repeats (which the deadband path also catches
+because `|0| < 0.5`, but having both set documents the operator's intent).
+
+### Special cases
+
+- **First write** always passes through. The coalescer has no prior value
+  to compare against, so the first write of any tag pays the full
+  round-trip and seeds the cache.
+- **NaN / Infinity** bypass deadband suppression. IEEE-754 comparisons
+  against NaN are undefined and a stale `+Inf` shouldn't silently swallow
+  a real reset; the wire decides. `WriteOnChange` equality on NaN still
+  follows .NET semantics (`Equals(NaN, NaN) == true` for `double` boxed in
+  `object`), so a `WriteOnChange` tag stuck on NaN will suppress repeats
+  until something else writes a real value.
+- **Failed writes** do *not* seed the cache. If the wire write fails, the
+  next attempt with the same value still hits the wire because the
+  coalescer never recorded a "last successful value" for it.
+- **Reconnect drops the cache**. The driver's host-state probe transitions
+  `Stopped → Running` after a reconnect; both transitions reset the
+  per-device coalescer cache, so the first post-reconnect write of any
+  value pays the full round-trip. The PLC may have been restarted while
+  the driver was offline and our cached "we already wrote 42" is stale.
+- **Two devices, same tag address**. The cache is keyed on
+  `(deviceHostAddress, tagAddress)` so two PLCs running the same Logix
+  program keep independent caches — writing 42 to A doesn't suppress
+  writing 42 to B.
+- **Bit-in-DINT writes** consult the coalescer too, so a UI that pulses
+  `Flags.3` at every cycle benefits from the same `WriteOnChange`
+  suppression as a plain BOOL tag.
+- **Plain back-compat tags** (no `WriteDeadband`, no `WriteOnChange`)
+  take a fast-path through the coalescer that increments only the
+  `WritesPassedThrough` counter — no dictionary lookup, no allocation. The
+  knobs are zero-overhead opt-in.
+
+### Diagnostics
+
+The driver surfaces two counters through `DriverHealth.Diagnostics` (the
+same path the `driver-diagnostics` RPC + Admin UI render for Modbus / S7 /
+OPC UA Client):
+
+- `AbCip.WritesSuppressed` — total writes the coalescer skipped.
+- `AbCip.WritesPassedThrough` — total writes that hit the wire after
+  consulting the coalescer.
+
+Their ratio is the "wire savings" headline. A deployment with `0`
+suppressions either has no tags opted in or has the deadband too tight /
+the equality threshold too loose; revisit the per-tag config.
+
+### Verification
+
+- **Unit**: `AbCipWriteDeadbandTests` (`tests/.../AbCip.Tests`). Asserts
+  the deadband math, the equality fallback, the first-write pass-through,
+  reset-on-reconnect, two-device cache independence, suppressed-Good
+  status, NaN bypass, the back-compat fast path, and DTO round-trip.
+- **Integration**: `AbCipWriteDeadbandTests`
+  (`tests/.../AbCip.IntegrationTests`). Drives a 5-write jittery sequence
+  with `WriteDeadband: 1.0` against a live `ab_server` and asserts the
+  driver's diagnostics counter matches the expected suppression count.
+- **E2E**: `scripts/e2e/test-abcip.ps1` — see the *WriteCoalesce*
+  assertion.
+
+### Cross-references
+
+- `docs/drivers/AbServer-Test-Fixture.md` §7 — capability surfaces beyond
+  read; mentions write-coalesce coverage.
+- Modbus driver — read-side deadband in `ModbusDriver` predates this
+  write-side equivalent; the config shape is intentionally similar.
+- Kepware "Deadband (write)" knob — this is the AB CIP equivalent.
+
+## System tags / `_System` folder
+
+PR abcip-4.3 surfaces five read-only diagnostic variables under
+`AbCip/<device>/_System/` so SCADA / Admin clients can pivot from "is the
+wire up?" to "what's our scan rate / tag count?" without leaving the OPC UA
+address space. The values come straight from the live
+`IHostConnectivityProbe` + `DriverHealth` surfaces — reads bypass libplctag
+and are served from the in-memory snapshot the probe loop / read loop
+updates. PR abcip-4.4 added `_RefreshTagDb` as a sixth, writeable entry —
+the Kepware-style refresh trigger.
+
+### What it ships
+
+| Variable | Type | Access | Source | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `_ConnectionStatus` | String | ViewOnly | `HostState` | `Running` / `Stopped` / `Unknown` / `Faulted`. Mirrors what the connectivity probe sees. |
+| `_ScanRate` | Float64 | ViewOnly | `AbCipProbeOptions.Interval` | Configured probe interval in milliseconds — compare against `_LastScanTimeMs` to spot wire stretch. |
+| `_TagCount` | Int32 | ViewOnly | `_tagsByName` | Discovered tag count for this device, excluding `_System/*`. |
+| `_DeviceError` | String | ViewOnly | `DriverHealth.LastError` | Most recent error message; empty when the device is healthy. |
+| `_LastScanTimeMs` | Float64 | ViewOnly | `ReadAsync` wall-clock | Duration of the most-recent `ReadAsync` iteration on this device. |
+| `_RefreshTagDb` | Boolean | **Operate** | n/a (write-only trigger) | PR abcip-4.4 — Kepware-style refresh trigger. Reads always return `false`. Writing any truthy value (`true`, non-zero number, `"true"` / `"1"` strings, case-insensitive) dispatches to `RebrowseAsync` against the device's cached `IAddressSpaceBuilder`. Falsy / unparseable writes are no-ops that report `Good` so a UI that resets the trigger flag doesn't see a phantom error. The `AbCip.RefreshTriggers` diagnostic counter increments per truthy write. |
+
+### When the snapshot updates
+
+- **Probe transitions** — every `Running ↔ Stopped` flip refreshes the
+  device's snapshot inline, so a client subscribed to
+  `_System/_ConnectionStatus` sees the new state on the next OPC UA
+  publish tick.
+- **Read iterations** — `ReadAsync` recomputes `_LastScanTimeMs` per
+  device that owned at least one reference in the batch + writes a fresh
+  snapshot before returning.
+- **Driver init** — every device gets a seeded snapshot
+  (`Unknown` / `0` / `""`) before the probe loop spins up so a read that
+  arrives before the first probe iteration returns a stable shape rather
+  than null.
+
+### Browse + read example
+
+```powershell
+# Browse the synthetic folder
+otopcua-client-cli browse -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 \
+    -n "ns=2;s=AbCip/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/_System"
+
+# Read the connection status
+otopcua-client-cli read -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 \
+    -n "ns=2;s=AbCip/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/_System/_ConnectionStatus"
+```
+
+The driver-side reference embeds the device host address (the
+`_System/<device>/<name>` form) so the dispatcher can route by device
+without an additional registry. PR abcip-4.4 turned `_RefreshTagDb` into
+a writeable refresh trigger; the rest of the surface remains `ViewOnly`.
+
+### Refreshing the tag DB via OPC UA write
+
+PR abcip-4.4 wires `_RefreshTagDb` to the same `RebrowseAsync` entry point
+the CLI's `rebrowse` command exercises (issue #233). Operators have two
+roughly-equivalent ways to force a controller-side `@tags` re-walk after a
+program download:
+
+```powershell
+# Path A — OPC UA write to the system tag (production / Admin UI path)
+otopcua-client-cli write -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 \
+    -n "ns=2;s=AbCip/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/_System/_RefreshTagDb" \
+    -v true --type Boolean
+
+# Path B — direct CLI rebrowse against a transient driver (admin / debug path)
+otopcua-abcip-cli rebrowse -g ab://10.0.0.5/1,0
+```
+
+Both paths drop the UDT template cache + re-run the enumerator walk. Path A
+is the operator-facing surface (the same `IDriverControl.RebrowseAsync`
+contract, just dispatched from the OPC UA write surface instead of an
+in-process call). Path B spins up its own driver instance so it doesn't
+share the live server's cache, which makes it useful for one-off
+controller-side validation.
+
+The `AbCip.RefreshTriggers` driver-diagnostics counter increments per
+successful truthy write, so the Admin UI / driver-diagnostics RPC can show
+a "Refreshes since boot" tile that pairs naturally with the existing
+`WritesSuppressed` / `WritesPassedThrough` write-coalescer counters.
+
+### Verification
+
+- **Unit**: `AbCipSystemTagSourceTests`
+  (`tests/.../AbCip.Tests`) — covers snapshot round-trip, two-device
+  isolation, recognised-name lookup, default-shape on unseeded devices,
+  discovery emits the six canonical nodes, and `ReadAsync` dispatches
+  through the source instead of libplctag.
+- **Unit**: `AbCipRefreshTagDbTests`
+  (`tests/.../AbCip.Tests`) — PR abcip-4.4 — covers discovery emits the
+  trigger as Operate, reads always return `false`, truthy/falsy/null write
+  semantics, the `AbCip.RefreshTriggers` counter, two-device counter
+  independence, defends-in-depth `BadNotWritable` for read-only system
+  variables, no-op-Good when no builder is cached yet, and mixed-batch
+  routing alongside ordinary tag writes.
+- **Integration**: `AbCipSystemTagDiscoveryTests`

+# AB CIP — Performance knobs
+
+Phase 3 of the AB CIP driver plan introduces a small set of operator-tunable
+performance knobs that change how the driver talks to the controller without
+altering the address space or per-tag semantics. They consolidate decisions
+that Kepware exposes as a slider / advanced page so deployments running into
+high-latency PLCs, narrow-CPU CompactLogix parts, or legacy ControlLogix
+firmware have an explicit lever to pull.
+
+This document is the home for those knobs as PRs land. PR abcip-3.1 ships the
+first knob: per-device **CIP Connection Size**.
+
+## Connection Size
+
+### What it is
+
+CIP Connection Size — the byte ceiling on a single Forward Open response
+fragment, set during the EtherNet/IP Forward Open handshake. Larger
+connection sizes pack more tags into a single CIP RTT (higher request-packing
+density, fewer round-trips for the same scan list); smaller connection sizes
+stay compatible with legacy or narrow-buffer firmware that rejects oversized
+Forward Open requests.
+
+### Family defaults
+
+The driver picks a Connection Size from the per-family profile when the
+device-level override is unset:
+
+| Family | Default | Rationale |
+|---|---:|---|
+| `ControlLogix` | `4002` | Large Forward Open — FW20+ |
+| `GuardLogix` | `4002` | Same wire protocol as ControlLogix |
+| `CompactLogix` | `504` | 5069-L1/L2/L3 narrow-buffer parts (5370 family) |
+| `Micro800` | `488` | Hard cap on Micro800 firmware |
+
+These map straight to libplctag's `connection_size` attribute and match the
+defaults Kepware uses out of the box for the same families.
+
+### Override knob
+
+`AbCipDeviceOptions.ConnectionSize` (`int?`, default `null`) overrides the
+family default for one device. Bind it through driver config JSON:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Devices": [
+    {
+      "HostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "PlcFamily": "ControlLogix",
+      "ConnectionSize": 504
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+The override threads through every libplctag handle the driver creates for
+that device — read tags, write tags, probe tags, UDT-template reads, the
+`@tags` walker, and BOOL-in-DINT parent runtimes. There is no per-tag
+override; one Connection Size applies to the whole controller (matches CIP
+session semantics).
+
+### Valid range
+
+`[500..4002]` bytes. This matches the slider Kepware exposes for the same
+family. Values outside the range fail driver `InitializeAsync` with an
+`InvalidOperationException` — there's no silent clamp; misconfigured devices
+fail loudly so operators see the problem at deploy time.
+
+| Value | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `null` | Use family default (4002 / 504 / 488) |
+| `499` or below | Driver init fault — out-of-range |
+| `500..4002` | Threaded through to libplctag |
+| `4003` or above | Driver init fault — out-of-range |
+
+### Legacy-firmware caveat
+
+ControlLogix firmware **v19 and earlier** caps the CIP buffer at **504
+bytes** — Connection Sizes above that cause the controller to reject the
+Forward Open with CIP error 0x01/0x113. The 5069-L1/L2/L3 CompactLogix narrow
+parts are subject to the same cap.
+
+The driver emits a warning via `AbCipDriverOptions.OnWarning` when the
+configured Connection Size **exceeds 511** *and* the device's family profile
+default is also at-or-below the legacy cap (i.e. CompactLogix with default
+504, or Micro800 with default 488). Production hosting should wire
+`OnWarning` to the application logger; the unit tests (`AbCipConnectionSizeTests`)
+collect into a list to assert which warnings fired.
+
+The warning fires once per device at `InitializeAsync`. It does not block
+initialisation — operators may need the override anyway when running newer
+CompactLogix firmware that does support the larger Forward Open. The
+controller will reject the connection at runtime if it can't honour the size,
+and that surfaces through the standard `IHostConnectivityProbe` channel.
+
+### Performance trade-off
+
+| Larger Connection Size | Smaller Connection Size |
+|---|---|
+| More tags per CIP RTT — higher throughput | Compatible with legacy / narrow firmware |
+| Bigger buffers held by libplctag native (RSS impact) | Lower memory footprint |
+| Forward Open rejected on FW19- ControlLogix | Always works (assuming ≥500) |
+| Required for high-density scan lists | Forces more round-trips — higher latency |
+
+For most FW20+ ControlLogix shops, the default `4002` is correct and the
+override is unnecessary. The override is mainly useful when:
+
+1. **Migrating off Kepware** with a controller-specific slider value already
+   tuned in production — set Connection Size to match.
+2. **Mixed-firmware fleets** where some controllers are still on FW19 — set
+   the legacy controllers explicitly to `504`.
+3. **CompactLogix L1/L2/L3** running newer firmware that supports a larger
+   Forward Open than the family-default 504 — bump the override up.
+4. **Micro800** never goes above `488`; the override is for documentation /
+   discoverability rather than capability change.
+
+### libplctag wrapper limitation
+
+The libplctag .NET wrapper (1.5.x) does not expose `connection_size` as a
+public `Tag` property. The driver propagates the value via reflection on the
+wrapper's internal `NativeTagWrapper.SetIntAttribute("connection_size", N)`
+after `InitializeAsync` — equivalent to libplctag's
+`plc_tag_set_int_attribute`. Because libplctag native parses
+`connection_size` only at create time, this is **best-effort** until either:
+
+- the libplctag .NET wrapper exposes `ConnectionSize` directly (planned in
+  the upstream backlog), in which case the reflection no-ops cleanly, or
+- libplctag native gains post-create hot-update for `connection_size`, in
+  which case the call lands as intended.
+
+In the meantime the value is correctly stored on `DeviceState.ConnectionSize`
++ surfaces in every `AbCipTagCreateParams` the driver builds, so the override
+is observable end-to-end through the public driver surface and unit tests
+even if the underlying wrapper isn't yet honouring it on the wire.
+
+Operators who need *guaranteed* Connection Size enforcement against FW19
+controllers today can pin `libplctag` to a wrapper version that exposes
+`ConnectionSize` once one is available, or run a libplctag native build
+patched for runtime updates. Both paths are tracked in the AB CIP plan.

+
+## Addressing mode
+
+### What it is
+
+CIP exposes two equivalent ways to address a Logix tag on the wire:
+
+1. **Symbolic** — the request carries the tag's ASCII name and the controller
+   parses + resolves the path on every read. This is the libplctag default
+   and what every previous driver build has used.
+2. **Logical** — the request carries a CIP Symbol Object instance ID (a small
+   integer assigned by the controller when the project was downloaded). The
+   controller skips ASCII parsing entirely; the lookup is a single
+   instance-table dereference.
+
+Logical addressing is faster on the controller side and produces smaller
+request frames. The trade-off is that the driver has to learn the
+name → instance-id mapping once, by reading the `@tags` pseudo-tag at
+startup, and the resolution step has to repeat after a controller program
+download (instance IDs are re-assigned).
+
+### Enum values
+
+`AbCipDeviceOptions.AddressingMode` (`AddressingMode` enum, default
+`Auto`) takes one of three values:
+
+| Value | Behaviour |
+|---|---|
+| `Auto` | Driver picks. **Currently resolves to `Symbolic`** — a future PR will plumb a real auto-detection heuristic (firmware version + symbol-table size). |
+| `Symbolic` | Force ASCII symbolic addressing on the wire. The historical default. |
+| `Logical` | Use CIP logical-segment / instance-ID addressing. Triggers a one-time `@tags` walk at the first read; subsequent reads consult the cached map. |
+
+`Auto` is documented as "Symbolic-for-now" so deployments setting `Auto`
+explicitly today will silently flip to a real heuristic when one ships,
+matching the spirit of the toggle. Operators who want to pin the wire
+behaviour should set `Symbolic` or `Logical` directly.
+
+### Family compatibility
+
+Logical addressing depends on the controller implementing CIP Symbol Object
+class 0x6B with stable instance IDs. Older AB families don't:
+
+| Family | Logical addressing supported? | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ControlLogix` | yes | Native class 0x6B support, FW10+ |
+| `CompactLogix` | yes | Same wire protocol as ControlLogix |
+| `GuardLogix` | yes | Same wire protocol; safety partition is tag-level, not addressing-level |
+| `Micro800` | **no** | Firmware does not implement class 0x6B; instance-ID reads trip CIP "Path Segment Error" 0x04 |
+| `SLC500` / `PLC5` | **no** | Pre-CIP families; PCCC bridging only — no Symbol Object at all |
+
+When `AddressingMode = Logical` is set on an unsupported family, the driver
+**falls back to Symbolic with a warning** (via `OnWarning`) instead of
+faulting. This keeps mixed-firmware deployments working — operators can ship
+a uniform "Logical" config across the fleet and let the driver downgrade
+the families that can't honour it.
+
+The driver-level decision is exposed via
+`PlcFamilies.AbCipPlcFamilyProfile.SupportsLogicalAddressing` and resolved at
+`AbCipDriver.InitializeAsync` time; the resolved mode is stored on
+`DeviceState.AddressingMode` and threaded through every
+`AbCipTagCreateParams` from then on.
+
+### One-time symbol-table walk
+
+The first read on a Logical-mode device triggers a one-time `@tags` walk via
+`LibplctagTagEnumerator` (the same component used for opt-in controller
+browse). The driver caches the resulting name → instance-id map on
+`DeviceState.LogicalInstanceMap`; subsequent reads consult the cache without
+issuing another walk. The walk is gated by a per-device `SemaphoreSlim` so
+parallel first-reads serialise on a single dispatch.
+
+The walk happens in `AbCipDriver.EnsureLogicalMappingsAsync` and runs only
+for devices that have actually resolved to `Logical`. Symbolic-mode devices
+skip the walk entirely. Walk failures are non-fatal: the
+`LogicalWalkComplete` flag still flips to `true` so the driver does not
+re-attempt indefinitely, and per-tag handles fall back to Symbolic addressing
+on the wire (libplctag's default).
+
+A controller program download invalidates the instance IDs. There is no
+auto-invalidation today — operators trigger a fresh walk by either
+restarting the driver or calling `RebrowseAsync` (the same surface that
+clears the UDT template cache) with logic-mode plumbing extended in a
+future PR. For now, restart-on-download is the recommended workflow.
+
+### libplctag wrapper limitation
+
+The libplctag .NET wrapper (1.5.x) does **not** expose a public knob for
+instance-ID addressing. The driver translates Logical-mode params into
+libplctag attributes via reflection on
+`NativeTagWrapper.SetAttributeString("use_connected_msg", "1")` +
+`SetAttributeString("cip_addr", "0x6B,N")` — same best-effort fallback
+pattern as the Connection Size knob.
+
+This means **Logical mode is observable end-to-end through the public
+driver surface and unit tests today**, but the actual wire behaviour
+remains Symbolic until either:
+
+- the upstream libplctag .NET wrapper exposes the
+  `UseConnectedMessaging` + `CipAddr` properties on `Tag` directly
+  (planned in the upstream backlog), in which case the reflection no-ops
+  cleanly, or
+- libplctag native gains post-create hot-update for `cip_addr`, in which
+  case the call lands as intended.
+
+The driver-level bookkeeping (resolved mode, instance-id map, family
+compatibility, fall-back warning) is fully wired so the upgrade path is
+purely a wrapper-version bump.
+
+### Performance trade-off
+
+| Symbolic addressing | Logical addressing |
+|---|---|
+| Works everywhere | Requires Symbol Object class 0x6B |
+| ASCII parse on every read (controller-side cost) | One-time walk; instance-id lookup thereafter |
+| No first-read latency | First read on a device pays the `@tags` walk |
+| Smaller code surface | Stale on program download — restart driver to re-walk |
+| Best for small / sparse tag sets | Best for >500-tag scans with stable controller |
+
+For scan lists in the **single-digit-tag** range, the per-poll ASCII parse
+cost is invisible. For **medium** scan lists (~100 tags) the gain is real
+but small — typically 5–10% per CIP RTT depending on tag-name length. The
+break-even point is where the ASCII-parse overhead starts dominating,
+roughly **>500 tags** in a tight scan loop, which is also where libplctag's
+own request-packing benefits compound. Large MES / batch projects with
+many UDT instances are the canonical case.
+
+### Driver config JSON
+
+Bind the toggle through the driver-config JSON:
+
+```json
+{
+  "Devices": [
+    {
+      "HostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "PlcFamily": "ControlLogix",
+      "AddressingMode": "Logical"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+`"Auto"`, `"Symbolic"`, and `"Logical"` parse case-insensitively. Omitting
+the field defaults to `"Auto"`.

+
+## Read strategy (PR abcip-3.3)
+
+A per-device toggle that controls how multi-member UDT batches are read.
+The default `Auto` value matches every previous build's behaviour for dense
+reads but switches to per-member bundling when only a handful of members of
+a large UDT are subscribed — the canonical "5 of 50" sparse-subscription
+case where reading the whole UDT buffer just to extract a few fields wastes
+wire bandwidth.
+
+### Three modes
+
+| Mode | When to use |
+|---|---|
+| `WholeUdt` | Most members of every subscribed UDT are read together. One libplctag read per parent UDT, members decoded in-memory at their byte offsets. The task #194 default. |
+| `MultiPacket` | A few members of a large UDT are subscribed at a time. One read per subscribed member, bundled per parent into one CIP Multi-Service Packet. |
+| `Auto` (default) | Planner picks per-batch from the subscribed-member fraction (see *Sparsity threshold*). |
+
+### Sparsity threshold
+
+Auto mode divides `subscribedMembers / totalMembers` for each parent UDT and
+picks `MultiPacket` when the fraction is **strictly less than** the
+threshold, else `WholeUdt`. Default threshold `0.25` — a 1/4 subscription is
+the rough break-even where the wire-cost of one whole-UDT read still beats
+N member reads on a ControlLogix 4002-byte connection-size buffer; above
+1/4, the per-member overhead dominates.
+
+Tune via `AbCipDeviceOptions.MultiPacketSparsityThreshold` (clamped to
+`[0..1]`). Threshold `0.0` = "never MultiPacket"; `1.0` = "always MultiPacket
+when any member is subscribed."
+
+### Family compatibility
+
+`MultiPacket` requires CIP service `0x0A` (Multi-Service Packet) on the
+controller. Source of truth is
+[`AbCipPlcFamilyProfile.SupportsRequestPacking`](../../src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbCip/PlcFamilies/AbCipPlcFamilyProfile.cs):
+
+| Family | `SupportsRequestPacking` |
+|---|---|
+| ControlLogix | yes |
+| CompactLogix | yes |
+| GuardLogix | yes (wire identical to ControlLogix) |
+| Micro800 | **no** |
+| SLC500 / PLC5 (when those profiles ship) | **no** |
+
+User-forced `MultiPacket` against a non-packing family logs a warning at
+device init and falls back to `WholeUdt`. `Auto` against a non-packing
+family stays `Auto` at the device level — the per-batch heuristic caps the
+strategy to `WholeUdt` so the wire never sees a Multi-Service-Packet against
+a controller that can't decode it.
+
+### libplctag wrapper limitation
+
+The libplctag .NET wrapper (1.5.x) does not expose the `0x0A` service as a
+public knob — same wrapper-version constraint that gates PR abcip-3.1's
+`connection_size` and PR abcip-3.2's instance-ID addressing. Today's
+MultiPacket runtime therefore issues N libplctag reads sequentially when
+the planner picks the strategy; the wire-level bundling lands cleanly when
+an upstream wrapper release exposes the primitive.
+
+The driver-level bookkeeping (resolved strategy, per-batch heuristic,
+family-compat fall-back, per-device dispatch counters) is fully wired so
+the upgrade path is a wrapper-version bump only — the planner already
+produces the right plan, and `AbCipMultiPacketReadPlanner.Build` is
+covered by unit tests that pin the plan shape rather than wire bytes.

+# AB Legacy — DH+ via 1756-DHRIO bridging
+
+PR ablegacy-13 / [#256](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/256). The AB
+Legacy driver can address a PLC-5 sitting on a DH+ link by routing CIP requests
+through a 1756-DHRIO module installed in a ControlLogix chassis. This is the
+canonical way to keep an installed-base PLC-5 fleet alive after the chassis-
+level migration to ControlLogix; the DHRIO module exposes a DH+ "side" that
+talks to the legacy PLC-5 / SLC-DH+ peers and a backplane "side" that the
+ControlLogix CPU + Ethernet bridge can route through.
+
+## Wire layout
+
+```
+OtOpcUa server  ──EtherNet/IP──►  1756-EN2T (slot 0)  ──backplane──►  1756-DHRIO (slot N)  ──DH+──►  PLC-5
+```
+
+Two CIP hops:
+
+1. **Backplane** — port `1`, slot `<N>` (the slot the DHRIO module lives in).
+2. **DH+** — port `2`, station `<S>` (the DH+ node address of the target PLC-5,
+   in **octal**).
+
+Resulting CIP path: `1,<N>,2,<S>`.
+
+> The first port `1` is always the backplane; port `2` is the DH+ side of the
+> 1756-DHRIO module. This mirrors the convention Rockwell uses in RSLinx + RSLogix
+> 5.
+
+## Octal station number
+
+The DH+ network was specified with **octal** node addresses. Rockwell tooling
+displays them in octal too (RSLogix 5 → "DH+ Node Address" field on the
+controller properties dialog). The driver follows suit — the station segment
+of the CIP path **must be parsed as octal** (digits 0..7 only; `8`, `9`, and
+multi-byte garbage are rejected).
+
+DH+ addresses run `0..77` octal == `0..63` decimal. Quick reference:
+
+| Octal | Decimal | Octal | Decimal | Octal | Decimal | Octal | Decimal |
+|------:|--------:|------:|--------:|------:|--------:|------:|--------:|
+| 00 | 0  | 20 | 16 | 40 | 32 | 60 | 48 |
+| 01 | 1  | 21 | 17 | 41 | 33 | 61 | 49 |
+| 02 | 2  | 22 | 18 | 42 | 34 | 62 | 50 |
+| 03 | 3  | 23 | 19 | 43 | 35 | 63 | 51 |
+| 04 | 4  | 24 | 20 | 44 | 36 | 64 | 52 |
+| 05 | 5  | 25 | 21 | 45 | 37 | 65 | 53 |
+| 06 | 6  | 26 | 22 | 46 | 38 | 66 | 54 |
+| 07 | 7  | 27 | 23 | 47 | 39 | 67 | 55 |
+| 10 | 8  | 30 | 24 | 50 | 40 | 70 | 56 |
+| 11 | 9  | 31 | 25 | 51 | 41 | 71 | 57 |
+| 12 | 10 | 32 | 26 | 52 | 42 | 72 | 58 |
+| 13 | 11 | 33 | 27 | 53 | 43 | 73 | 59 |
+| 14 | 12 | 34 | 28 | 54 | 44 | 74 | 60 |
+| 15 | 13 | 35 | 29 | 55 | 45 | 75 | 61 |
+| 16 | 14 | 36 | 30 | 56 | 46 | 76 | 62 |
+| 17 | 15 | 37 | 31 | 57 | 47 | 77 | 63 |
+
+Anything past `77` octal (i.e. decimal > 63) is invalid on a real DH+ network
+and rejected by the parser.
+
+## PLC-5 only
+
+DHRIO bridging is **PLC-5-only**. The driver enforces this at
+`AbLegacyDriver.InitializeAsync` time: a DH+ bridge path combined with
+`PlcFamily=Slc500 / MicroLogix / LogixPccc` throws
+`InvalidOperationException("DHRIO bridging is PLC-5-only")` immediately rather
+than letting reads silently fail with `BadCommunicationError` on the wire.
+
+Background: the 1756-DHRIO module only speaks DH+ to PLC-5 / SLC-DH+ peers, and
+libplctag's PCCC stack only exposes the PLC-5 side. SLC 5/04 boxes on DH+
+**can** be physically reached through a DHRIO module, but the protocol stack
+needed to drive them isn't exposed by libplctag — out of scope for this driver.
+
+## CLI worked example
+
+PLC-5 at DH+ node `07` (octal == 7 decimal), DHRIO module in slot 3, gateway
+`192.168.1.10`:
+
+```powershell
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli probe `
+    -g ab://192.168.1.10/1,3,2,07 `
+    -P Plc5 `
+    -a N7:0
+```
+
+```powershell
+# Read N7:10 from the PLC-5 across the DHRIO bridge
+otopcua-ablegacy-cli read `
+    -g ab://192.168.1.10/1,3,2,07 `
+    -P Plc5 `
+    -a N7:10 `
+    -t Int
+```
+
+The driver surfaces the parsed bridge form on the host-address record:
+`BackplaneSlot=3`, `DhPlusPort=2`, `DhPlusStation=7` (decimal-translated). Use
+those values when reading driver-diagnostics output to confirm the bridge was
+recognised — a non-bridge CIP path leaves all three fields null.
+
+## Manual smoke procedure
+
+There is no automated end-to-end coverage for DH+ bridging because the only
+path to wire-level validation is real hardware (libplctag's `ab_server` Docker
+image doesn't simulate the DHRIO + DH+ + PLC-5 stack). The unit-test layer
+covers parser positive / negative cases.
+
+Hardware smoke checklist:
+
+1. Confirm the 1756-DHRIO module is present in the target ControlLogix chassis.
+   RSLinx Classic should show `DH+, 1` under the chassis tree with the PLC-5
+   nodes enumerated underneath.
+2. Note the DHRIO module's slot number (the `<N>` in `1,<N>,2,<S>`).
+3. Note the target PLC-5's DH+ node address — read it off the front-panel switch
+   bank, or the controller properties in RSLogix 5. **Read it as octal**.
+4. From an OtOpcUa box that can reach the EtherNet/IP gateway:
+
+   ```powershell
+   otopcua-ablegacy-cli probe -g ab://<gateway>/1,<slot>,2,<station-octal> -P Plc5 -a S:0
+   ```
+
+   `S:0` (status file word 0) is non-destructive and present on every PLC-5.
+5. If the probe succeeds, exercise an N file read against a known
+   non-zero address. Compare against the value displayed in RSLogix 5 →
+   Online → Data → N7.
+
+If the probe fails with `BadCommunicationError`:
+
+- Wrong slot number — re-check via RSLinx.
+- Wrong octal node — convert from RSLogix 5's display value (already octal); a
+  decimal-thinking conversion mistake is the most common smoke failure.
+- DHRIO module's DH+ baud rate doesn't match the PLC-5's switch setting (57.6k
+  / 115.2k / 230.4k) — driver-side problem this can't paper over.
+- A scanner on the DHRIO is in scheduled-mode and starving unscheduled
+  PCCC traffic — bump the DHRIO's unscheduled-message slice in RSLogix 5000.

+# AB Legacy diagnostic counters
+
+Per-device diagnostic counters surface as auto-generated read-only OPC UA
+variables under each device's synthetic `_Diagnostics/` folder. HMIs can bind
+directly without going through a separate diagnostics RPC. Mirrors the AB CIP
+`_System/` pattern from PR abcip-4.3.
+
+Closes #253 (PR ablegacy-10).
+
+## The nine counters
+
+Each device managed by the `AbLegacyDriver` exposes nine read-only nodes under
+`AbLegacy/<host>/_Diagnostics/<name>`. The first seven shipped in PR ablegacy-10;
+`DemoteCount` + `LastDemotedUtc` arrived with PR ablegacy-12 / #255 (auto-demote
+on comm failure).
+
+| Name | Type | Semantics |
+|---|---|---|
+| `RequestCount` | Int64 | Total `ReadAsync` requests issued against this device. One increment per non-diagnostic reference per call, success or failure. |
+| `ResponseCount` | Int64 | Successful read responses. |
+| `ErrorCount` | Int64 | Failed read responses (any non-Good status). |
+| `RetryCount` | Int64 | Retry attempts beyond the first per the PR 9 retry loop. A single read with two retries adds two. |
+| `LastErrorCode` | Int32 | Most recent libplctag status code on a failed read; `0` when no error has been seen since the last reset. |
+| `LastErrorMessage` | String | Most recent libplctag error message on a failed read; empty when no error has been seen since the last reset. |
+| `CommFailures` | Int64 | Count of read failures mapped to `BadCommunicationError`. Spans transient libplctag throws + retried-out chains so operators see a single "wire fell off" counter. |
+| `DemoteCount` | Int64 | **PR ablegacy-12** — cumulative auto-demote events for this device. Bumps every time the driver crosses the consecutive-failure threshold and arms a fresh cool-down window. Cumulative across `ReinitializeAsync` (preserved through redeploys) so a flapping link surfaces as a steadily climbing counter. |
+| `LastDemotedUtc` | String | **PR ablegacy-12** — ISO-8601 UTC timestamp of the most recent auto-demotion. Empty string when this device has never been demoted. |
+
+**Address shape**: `_Diagnostics/<deviceHostAddress>/<name>` —
+e.g. `_Diagnostics/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/RequestCount`.
+
+The `<deviceHostAddress>` segment is the canonical `ab://host[:port]/cip-path`
+string from `AbLegacyDeviceOptions.HostAddress`. The browse path looks like
+`AbLegacy/<deviceHostAddress>/_Diagnostics/<name>` — the same shape as a
+user-config tag node, just under a reserved sibling folder.
+
+## Reset behaviour
+
+| Trigger | Effect |
+|---|---|
+| `ReinitializeAsync` | Every counter for every device resets to zero, plus `LastErrorMessage` clears to empty. **PR ablegacy-12 exception:** `DemoteCount` + `LastDemotedUtc` survive the reinit so an operator redeploying mid-incident doesn't lose the flapping-link history. |
+| `ShutdownAsync` | All counters drop with the device map (including `DemoteCount`). |
+| Driver process restart | Counters start at zero. |
+| Probe transition Stopped→Running | **No automatic reset** — counters are cumulative across reconnect events so operators can spot intermittent links by watching `CommFailures` keep climbing. |
+| Probe transition Demoted→Running | **PR ablegacy-12** — early-clear of the active demote window, but the cumulative `DemoteCount` stays put. |
+
+There is no in-process "reset" RPC at the time of writing. If you need to
+clear counters without a redeploy, kick a `ReinitializeAsync` from the Admin
+RPC surface — the driver re-EnsureDevice's each host so the freshly registered
+counters start at zero.
+
+## What does *not* increment counters
+
+Reads against `_Diagnostics/<host>/<name>` are **driver-local observability**,
+not field traffic — they short-circuit before the libplctag dispatch and do
+NOT increment `RequestCount` or any other counter. Otherwise a 1 Hz HMI poll
+of `RequestCount` would make the counter chase its own tail.
+
+Writes against `_Diagnostics/*` are rejected with `BadNotWritable` because
+every diagnostic node is `SecurityClassification.ViewOnly` — a misbehaving
+SCADA template can't accidentally clobber the diagnostic surface.
+
+## Collision with user tags
+
+User-config tags must not shadow the seven reserved diagnostic names and
+must not live under the synthetic `_Diagnostics/` folder. Both shapes are
+rejected at `InitializeAsync` time with a clear `InvalidOperationException`:
+
+- A tag named `RequestCount` (or any of the other six reserved names) is
+  rejected because it would silently never resolve at read time — the
+  diagnostics short-circuit wins.
+- A tag whose `Address` starts with `_Diagnostics/` is rejected because the
+  whole prefix is owned by the auto-emitted counters.
+
+Pick a different name (`SiteRequestCount`, `MachineRequestCount`) or a
+different address path (real PCCC files like `N7:0`).
+
+## HMI binding examples
+
+### OPC UA Client CLI
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- read `
+  -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840 `
+  -n "ns=2;s=AbLegacy/ab://10.0.0.5/1,0/_Diagnostics/RequestCount"
+```
+
+### AB Legacy CLI (driver-direct, no OPC UA layer)
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbLegacy.Cli -- read `
+  -g "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0" -P Slc500 `
+  --address "_Diagnostics/RequestCount"
+```
+
+The driver-direct path lets you sanity-check the counter without standing up
+an OPC UA server — useful when triaging a wire-level issue on the bench.
+
+### Subscription pattern
+
+Subscribe to all seven counters at a slow rate (e.g. 5–10 s) on a long-lived
+overview dashboard, plus a faster rate (1 s) on `LastErrorMessage` /
+`LastErrorCode` when actively debugging a flapping link. The diagnostics
+short-circuit makes every read O(1) — there's no penalty for fast polling
+of the counter itself, only the OPC UA subscription bookkeeping.
+
+## Auto-demote on comm failure (PR ablegacy-12 / #255)
+
+When a device fails N consecutive reads or probes the driver marks it
+**Demoted** for a configurable cool-down window. Reads against a demoted
+device short-circuit with `BadCommunicationError` *without invoking
+libplctag* — that's the whole point of the feature: one slow PLC sharing
+the driver thread can't starve faster peers reading from healthy hosts on
+the same `AbLegacyDriver` instance.
+
+### Configuration
+
+Per-device, optional. `null` keeps the documented defaults (auto-demote
+**enabled** with 3 failures / 30 s).
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "Devices": [
+    {
+      "HostAddress": "ab://10.0.0.5/1,0",
+      "PlcFamily": "Slc500",
+      "Demote": {
+        "FailureThreshold": 3,    // default 3
+        "DemoteForMs": 30000,     // default 30s
+        "Enabled": true           // default true
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+| Knob | Default | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `FailureThreshold` | `3` | Consecutive comm failures before the device is demoted. A successful read or probe resets the tally. Terminal failures (`BadNodeIdUnknown`, `BadTypeMismatch`, …) **do not count** — they're config / decoder mismatches, not field outages. |
+| `DemoteForMs` | `30000` (30s) | Cool-down window. Reads while this is active short-circuit; a successful probe clears it early. |
+| `Enabled` | `true` | Set to `false` to keep the diagnostic counters but skip the auto-throttle. The failure tally still ticks but never arms the cool-down. |
+
+### Recovery
+
+Three ways out of Demoted, in order of likelihood:
+
+1. **Probe success** — the per-device probe loop (`Probe.Enabled = true`,
+   default address `S:0`) is the fast path. The next probe iteration after
+   demotion will exercise the wire; on success it clears
+   `DemotedUntilUtc` immediately and transitions the host to `Running`.
+2. **Window expiry** — once `DemoteForMs` elapses the demote marker
+   clears on the next read attempt. The read goes through; if it fails,
+   the failure tally keeps counting from where it left off (so a
+   permanently-down device re-arms the window after one more consecutive
+   failure rather than having to repeat the full threshold).
+3. **`ReinitializeAsync`** — clears `ConsecutiveFailures` +
+   `DemotedUntilUtc` outright. Cumulative `DemoteCount` survives.
+
+### Observability
+
+`DemoteCount` is the headline counter — it bumps once per demotion event,
+not per short-circuited read. A device that flaps every hour for a week
+shows `DemoteCount = ~168` on Friday afternoon, which is the operator
+signal you actually want.
+
+`LastDemotedUtc` is the ISO-8601 UTC timestamp of the most recent
+demotion. Bind it on a per-device tile alongside `DemoteCount` for
+"flapping link" alerting.
+
+### Host-state surface
+
+A demoted device reports `HostState.Demoted` (new in PR ablegacy-12
+on `Core.Abstractions/IHostConnectivityProbe.cs`). Consumers that
+predate the new value (the central `HostStatusPublisher`) safely treat
+it as `Stopped` — no schema migration needed.

+# AB Legacy — RSLogix symbol & data-table import
+
+ablegacy-11 / [#254](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/254) — bulk-import
+RSLogix 500 / 5 symbol exports into the AB Legacy driver. Saves operators from
+hand-typing every `N7:0` / `F8:12` / `B3:0/5` row of a several-hundred-tag PLC
+into `appsettings.json`.
+
+## Supported formats — v1
+
+| Format | Status | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `.CSV` "Database Export" | **supported** | Header columns `Symbol,Address,Description,DataType,Scope`; quoted fields, doubled-quote escapes, comment lines (`;` / `#`) all honoured |
+| `.SLC` text export | **supported** | RSLogix 500's "Save As Text" emits the same column shape — point the importer at the file directly |
+| `.RSS` (RSLogix 500 binary project) | **out of scope** | Proprietary; no parser ships in libplctag or any community project. Export to CSV first |
+| `.RSP` (RSLogix 5 binary project) | **out of scope** | Same as `.RSS` |
+
+The binary `.RSS` / `.RSP` non-goal isn't a "we don't have time" decision —
+Rockwell's binary format is undocumented + tied to RSLogix's internal page
+layout, and the only known parsers are commercial IDE plugins. v1 ships with
+text/CSV only and a clean abstraction (`IRsLogixImporter`) so a binary parser
+can slot in later without reshaping the call sites.
+
+## CSV column reference
+
+| Column | Required | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `Symbol` | yes | OPC UA tag name. RSLogix symbols are already stable; the importer uses them verbatim |
+| `Address` | yes | PCCC address. File letter implies `DataType` (see below); the importer's resolution wins over the CSV's `DataType` column |
+| `Description` | no | Parsed but currently unused — `AbLegacyTagDefinition` has no `Description` field at the v2 schema layer (see [#248](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/248)). Held in the column contract for future schema bumps |
+| `DataType` | no | RSLogix-supplied (`INT` / `REAL` / `BOOL` / `TIMER` / …). Ignored at import time; the importer derives the type from the file letter |
+| `Scope` | no | `Global` (default when blank) or `Local:N` for ladder-file-N-scoped tags. Acts as a filter when `--scope` is set on the CLI |
+
+### File-letter → `AbLegacyDataType` mapping
+
+| Letter | Example | Maps to | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `N` | `N7:0` | `Int` (signed 16-bit) | |
+| `F` | `F8:0` | `Float` (32-bit IEEE-754) | |
+| `B` | `B3:0/0` | `Bit` | Bit-within-word also forces Bit when `BitIndex` is set |
+| `L` | `L9:0` | `Long` (signed 32-bit) | SLC 5/05+ only |
+| `ST` | `ST10:0` | `String` | 82-byte fixed-length + length word |
+| `T` | `T4:0.ACC` | `TimerElement` | Sub-element implied by `.ACC` / `.PRE` / `.EN` / `.DN` |
+| `C` | `C5:0.ACC` | `CounterElement` | |
+| `R` | `R6:0.LEN` | `ControlElement` | |
+| `A` | `A14:0` | `AnalogInt` | Older hardware |
+| `I` / `O` / `S` | `I:0/0` | `Int` (or `Bit` with bit suffix) | I/O + status files |
+| `PD` / `MG` / `PLS` / `BT` | `PD9:0` | `PidElement` etc. | Family-gated; PD/MG common on SLC500 + PLC-5; PLS/BT PLC-5 only |
+| `RTC` / `HSC` / `DLS` / … | `RTC:0.YR` | `MicroLogixFunctionFile` | MicroLogix 1100 / 1400 only |
+
+A bit suffix (`/N`) on any file letter forces `Bit`, regardless of the file
+letter's normal classification — `N7:0/3` parses as Bit, not Int.
+
+## Scope filter
+
+The `Scope` column distinguishes program-scoped tags (`Local:1`, `Local:2`, …)
+from globals. RSLogix exports usually mix both. The CLI's `--scope` flag (and
+`ImportOptions.ScopeFilter` at the API level) keeps only the rows whose
+`Scope` value matches case-insensitively; rows with no `Scope` column count as
+`Global`.
+
+```powershell
+# Import only the Global symbols

+|---|---|---|
+| `-f` / `--file` | **required** | Path to the CSV export |
+| `-d` / `--device` | **required** | Canonical AB Legacy gateway URI every imported tag binds to |
+| `--emit` | `appsettings-fragment` | `appsettings-fragment` (JSON) or `summary` (one-line counter) |

+
+### `appsettings-fragment` output shape
+
+The default `--emit appsettings-fragment` mode writes a JSON object whose
+`Tags` array is shaped like the `AbLegacyDriverConfigDto.Tags` array — paste
+straight into the driver-instance config under
+`Drivers/<instance>/Config/Tags`.
+
+```json
+{
+  "Tags": [
+    {
+      "Name": "MotorSpeed",
+      "DeviceHostAddress": "ab://192.168.1.20/1,0",
+      "Address": "N7:0",
+      "DataType": "Int",
+      "Writable": true
+    },
+    …
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Summary line
+
+`--emit summary` writes a single line:
+
+```
+Imported 142 tag(s), skipped 3, errors 0.
+```
+
+`Skipped` covers Scope-filter rejections + missing-required-field rows; `errors`
+covers rows whose `Address` failed to parse as a PCCC address.
+
+## API surface — `IRsLogixImporter` + `AddRsLogixImport`
+
+For server-side / bootstrap use-cases the importer is also reachable via:
+
+```csharp
+using ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbLegacy;
+using ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.AbLegacy.Import;
+
+var options = new AbLegacyDriverOptions
+{
+    Devices = [new AbLegacyDeviceOptions("ab://192.168.1.20/1,0")],
+};
+
+// Append imported tags onto an existing options object.
+var updated = options.AddRsLogixImport(
+    path: @"C:\plc\plc-export.csv",
+    deviceHostAddress: "ab://192.168.1.20/1,0",
+    out var result);
+
+// result.ParsedCount / SkippedCount / ErrorCount surface the import telemetry.
+Console.WriteLine($"Imported {result.ParsedCount} tags");
+```
+
+For a hand-managed importer instance (e.g. supplying a custom `ILogger`) call
+`new RsLogixSymbolImport(logger).Parse(stream, deviceHostAddress, opts)`
+directly.
+
+## Operational notes
+
+- The importer is **additive** — `AddRsLogixImport` concatenates onto the
+  existing `Tags` list rather than replacing it. Hand-rolled tags (system-status
+  variables, computed fields the operator added by hand) survive a re-import.
+- Re-imports are not idempotent today — calling `AddRsLogixImport` twice will
+  produce duplicate tag rows. Operators are expected to either start from a
+  clean options object or de-duplicate themselves; a future schema rev may add
+  a `replace=true` switch.
+- Description metadata is dropped on the floor — see the column reference
+  above. When [#248](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/248) lands a
+  `Description` field on `AbLegacyTagDefinition` the importer will start
+  populating it without further changes to the CSV contract.

+  increment produces the first delta.
+- **Parts-count counter reset** (current value goes backwards, e.g.
+  shift-change zero) **preserves the last published values** so an
+  operator reading the tag mid-shift-change sees the last known cycle
+  duration rather than `null` / Bad. The next positive transition
+  produces a fresh delta from the new baseline.
+- **Cycle-timer rollover** (delta would be negative — e.g. CNC zeroes
+  the cycle timer at part completion) **leaves the previously-published
+  values unchanged for one tick** and re-baselines so the next
+  increment produces a clean delta. The driver does NOT publish a
+  negative `LastCycleSeconds`.
+- **Parts-count jumps `> 1`** (backfill — e.g. counter increments by
+  3 at once) publish the **timer delta over the window** as
+  `LastCycleSeconds`. The plan's "delta over the window between
+  successive parts-count increments" definition does not divide by the
+  count delta; the value reflects the actual elapsed timer between the
+  two observations.
+- **Reconnect / reinit** clears the derivation state — the prior CNC
+  session's cycle-timer + parts-count snapshots may be invalidated by
+  the FWLIB session boundary, so the next post-reconnect probe tick

+| `ActivePlusHistory` | On subscribe (== "on connect") and on every `HistoryPollInterval` tick, the projection issues `cnc_rdalmhistry` for the most recent `HistoryDepth` entries. Each previously-unseen entry fires an `OnAlarmEvent` with `SourceTimestampUtc` set from the CNC's reported timestamp — OPC UA dashboards see the real occurrence time, not the moment the projection polled. |

+    "Mode": "ActivePlusHistory",        // "ActiveOnly" (default) | "ActivePlusHistory"
+    "HistoryPollInterval": "00:05:00",  // default 5 min

+`(OccurrenceTime, AlarmNumber, AlarmType)`. The same triple across two
+polls only emits once. The dedup set is in-memory and **resets on
+reconnect** — first poll after reconnect re-emits everything in the ring
+buffer. OPC UA clients that need exactly-once semantics dedupe client-side
+on the same triple (the timestamp + type + number tuple is stable across
+the boundary).
+
+### `HistoryDepth` cap
+
+Capped at `FocasAlarmProjectionOptions.MaxHistoryDepth = 250` so an
+operator who types `10000` by accident can't blast the wire session with a
+giant request. Typical FANUC ring buffers cap at ~100 entries; the default
+`HistoryDepth = 100` matches the most common ring-buffer size.

+## Writes (opt-in, off by default) — issue #268 (F4-a) + #269 (F4-b) + #270 (F4-c)
+
+Writes ship behind multiple independent opt-ins. All default off so a freshly
+deployed FOCAS driver is read-only until the deployment makes a deliberate
+choice. Decision record: [`docs/v2/decisions.md`](../v2/decisions.md) →
+"FOCAS write-path opt-in".
+
+| Knob | Default | Effect when off |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `FocasDriverOptions.Writes.Enabled` *(driver-level master switch)* | `false` | Every entry in a `WriteAsync` batch short-circuits to `BadNotWritable` with status text `writes disabled at driver level`. Wire client never gets touched. |
+| **`FocasDriverOptions.Writes.AllowParameter`** *(F4-b granular kill switch)* | **`false`** | **`PARAM:` writes return `BadNotWritable` with no wire client constructed. Defense in depth — even if `Enabled = true` an operator must explicitly opt into parameter writes per kind because a misdirected `cnc_wrparam` can put the CNC in a bad state.** |
+| **`FocasDriverOptions.Writes.AllowMacro`** *(F4-b granular kill switch)* | **`false`** | **`MACRO:` writes return `BadNotWritable` with no wire client constructed. Macro writes are the normal HMI-driven recipe / setpoint surface; gating them separately from `AllowParameter` lets a deployment open MACRO without exposing the heavier PARAM write surface.** |
+| **`FocasDriverOptions.Writes.AllowPmc`** *(F4-c granular kill switch)* | **`false`** | **PMC writes (R/G/F/D/X/Y/K/A/E/T/C letters, both Bit and Byte) return `BadNotWritable` with no wire client constructed. PMC is ladder working memory — a mistargeted bit can move motion, latch a feedhold, or flip a safety interlock, so PMC writes are gated separately from PARAM/MACRO so an operator team can open PARAM (commissioning) without exposing the much higher-blast-radius PMC surface.** |
+| `FocasTagDefinition.Writable` *(per-tag opt-in)* | `false` | The per-tag check returns `BadNotWritable` for that tag even when the driver-level flags are on. |
+
+> **PMC SAFETY CALLOUT** — PMC is the FANUC ladder's working memory. A
+> mistargeted bit can move motion (a Y-coil writing to a servo enable),
+> latch a feedhold (an internal R-relay the ladder ANDs with cycle-start),
+> or flip a safety interlock (an X-input shadow). **Treat PMC writes the
+> same way you'd treat editing a live ladder:** verify e-stop is live and
+> the machine is in jog mode before issuing the first write of a session.
+> The driver gates these writes behind THREE independent opt-ins
+> (`Writes.Enabled` + `Writes.AllowPmc` + per-tag `Writable`) precisely
+> because the blast radius is higher than parameter writes.
+
+### PMC bit-write read-modify-write semantics — F4-c
+
+The FOCAS wire call `pmc_wrpmcrng` is **byte-addressed** — there is no
+sub-byte write primitive. When the driver receives a write request on a
+`Bit` tag (e.g. `R100.3`), it:
+
+1. Reads the parent byte via `pmc_rdpmcrng` (1 byte at `R100`).
+2. Masks the target bit (set: `current | (1 << bit)`; clear: `current & ~(1 << bit)`).
+3. Writes the modified byte back via `pmc_wrpmcrng` (1 byte at `R100`).
+
+A **per-byte semaphore** serialises concurrent bit writes against the same
+byte so two updates that race never lose one another's bit. RMW means **a
+PMC bit write reads first, then writes back the whole byte** — if the ladder
+is also writing to that byte at the same instant, there is a small window
+where the driver's value can clobber the ladder's. Operators who care about
+this race must coordinate the write through a ladder-side handshake (e.g.
+the operator sets a request bit, the ladder reads + clears it).
+
+### Config shape — F4-c
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "Writes": {
+    "Enabled": true,
+    "AllowParameter": true,   // F4-b — opt into cnc_wrparam
+    "AllowMacro": true,       // F4-b — opt into cnc_wrmacro
+    "AllowPmc": true          // F4-c — opt into pmc_wrpmcrng (incl. RMW bit writes)

+      "Writable": true, "WriteIdempotent": true }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Server-layer ACL (LDAP groups)
+
+Per the [`docs/v2/acl-design.md`](../v2/acl-design.md) tier model, the FOCAS
+driver only declares per-tag `SecurityClassification`; `DriverNodeManager`
+applies the gate. The classification post-F4-b is:
+
+| Tag kind | Classification | LDAP group required (default mapping) |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `PARAM:N` writable | `Configure` | **`WriteConfigure`** |
+| `MACRO:N` writable | `Operate` | `WriteOperate` |
+| Other writable (PMC R/G/F/...) | `Operate` | `WriteOperate` |
+| Non-writable | `ViewOnly` | (no write permission) |
+
+Parameter writes need the heavier `WriteConfigure` group because they're
+mostly emergency commissioning territory; macro writes use `WriteOperate`
+because they're the normal HMI recipe surface. The driver-level
+`AllowParameter` / `AllowMacro` kill switches sit independently of ACL — an
+operator-team kill switch the deployment can flip without redeploying ACL
+group memberships. See [`docs/security.md`](../security.md) for the full
+group/permission map.
+
+`WriteIdempotent` is plumbed through Polly retry by the server-layer
+`CapabilityInvoker.ExecuteWriteAsync`. When `false` (default), failed writes
+are NOT auto-retried per plan decisions #44/#45 — a timeout that fires after
+the CNC already accepted the write would otherwise risk a duplicate
+non-idempotent action (alarm acks, M-code pulses, recipe steps). Flip
+`WriteIdempotent` on per tag for genuinely-idempotent writes (a parameter
+value that the operator simply wants forced to a target).
+
+### FOCAS password — issue #271 (F4-d)
+
+Some controllers — notably 16i and certain 30i firmwares with the
+parameter-protect switch on — gate `cnc_wrparam` and a handful of reads
+behind a connection-level password. Without unlocking the session, every
+gated wire call returns `EW_PASSWD`, which the F4-b mapping surfaces as
+`BadUserAccessDenied`.
+
+`FocasDeviceOptions.Password` plumbs the password through the device config:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "Devices": [
+    {
+      "HostAddress": "focas://10.0.0.5:8193",
+      "Password": "1234"          // F4-d — optional CNC password
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+When set, the driver:
+
+1. **On connect**, calls `IFocasClient.UnlockAsync(password, ct)` after
+   the FWLIB handle opens but before any read/write fires. The FWLIB-backed
+   client emits `cnc_wrunlockparam` with the password ASCII-encoded into
+   the 4-byte FOCAS password slot (right-padded with `0x00`, truncated at
+   4 bytes — that's the shape the public Fanuc samples document).
+2. **On `BadUserAccessDenied` from any gated read or write**, re-issues
+   `UnlockAsync` and retries the call **exactly once**. A second
+   `EW_PASSWD` propagates unchanged so a wrong password doesn't loop
+   forever on the wire.
+3. **Reset on reconnect** — FWLIB unlock state lives on the handle, so
+   any reconnect path (planned or unplanned) re-runs unlock automatically
+   via `EnsureConnectedAsync`.
+
+**No-log invariant.** The password is a secret. The driver MUST NOT log
+it. Specifically:
+
+- `FocasDeviceOptions` overrides the record's auto-generated `ToString`
+  to print `Password = ***` when the field is non-null. Any Serilog
+  destructure that flows the device options through `{Device}` gets the
+  redaction for free.
+- `FwlibFocasClient.UnlockAsync` does not include the password in any
+  exception message — only the FWLIB return code (`EW_PASSWD`,
+  `EW_HANDLE`, etc.) makes it into the surface.
+- `FocasDriver` logs only `"FOCAS unlock applied for {host}"` when the
+  unlock succeeds — no password.
+- The Driver.FOCAS.Cli `--cnc-password` flag is also redacted at the
+  same `FocasDeviceOptions` choke point.
+- See [`docs/v2/focas-deployment.md`](../v2/focas-deployment.md)
+  § "FOCAS password handling" for the storage/rotation runbook + the
+  cross-link to [`docs/Security.md`](../Security.md).
+
+When the controller does **not** need a password, leave `Password`
+unset (`null`) and the driver short-circuits the unlock call entirely —
+no wire-level cost.
+
+### Status-code semantics post-F4-b
+
+- `BadNotWritable` — one of: driver-level `Writes.Enabled = false`; per-tag
+  `Writable = false`; **`Writes.AllowParameter = false` for a `PARAM:` tag
+  (F4-b)**; **`Writes.AllowMacro = false` for a `MACRO:` tag (F4-b)**;
+  **`Writes.AllowPmc = false` for a PMC tag (F4-c)**. Same status code,
+  five distinct paths — operators distinguish by checking the knobs.
+- `BadUserAccessDenied` — **F4-b** — the CNC reported `EW_PASSWD`
+  (parameter-write switch off / unlock required). **F4-d** wires the
+  `cnc_wrunlockparam` retry path on top: when `Password` is configured
+  the driver re-issues unlock + retries the gated call once before
+  surfacing this status. A persistent `BadUserAccessDenied` after F4-d
+  means either (a) the password doesn't match the controller, or (b)
+  the parameter-write switch on the pendant is still off and the
+  controller wants both the switch + the password.
+- `BadNotSupported` — both opt-ins flipped on, but the wire client doesn't
+  implement the kind being written (e.g. older transport variant). F4-a
+  wired the generic dispatch; F4-b adds typed `WriteParameterAsync` /
+  `WriteMacroAsync` entry points whose default impls return
+  `BadNotSupported` so transports compiled against a stale `IFocasClient`
+  surface still build.
+- `BadNodeIdUnknown` — full-reference doesn't match any configured
+  `FocasTagDefinition.Name`.
+- `BadCommunicationError` — wire failure (DLL not loaded, IPC peer dead,
+  etc.).
+
+### CLI bypass
+
+`otopcua-focas-cli write` ([`docs/Driver.FOCAS.Cli.md`](../Driver.FOCAS.Cli.md))
+sets `Writes.Enabled=true` locally for the lifetime of one invocation
+because the CLI is a per-operator tool — not a long-lived process bound to
+the central config DB. The server-side flag is untouched; configure-the-
+server code paths remain safer-by-default.

+
+## Auto re-import on `ModelChangeEvent`
+
+The driver subscribes to `BaseModelChangeEventType` (and its subtype
+`GeneralModelChangeEventType`) on the upstream `Server` node (`i=2253`) at
+the end of `InitializeAsync`. When the upstream server advertises a
+topology change, the driver coalesces events over a debounce window and
+runs a single re-import (equivalent to calling `ReinitializeAsync` —
+internally `ShutdownAsync` + `InitializeAsync`).
+
+### Configuration
+
+| Option | Default | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `WatchModelChanges` | `true` | Disable to skip the watch entirely (no extra subscription, no re-import on topology change). |
+| `ModelChangeDebounce` | `5s` | Coalescing window. The first event starts the timer; further events extend it; when it elapses with no new events, the driver fires one re-import. |
+
+### Behaviour
+
+- One model-change subscription per driver instance, separate from the
+  data + alarm subscriptions. Created best-effort: a server that doesn't
+  advertise the event types or rejects the `EventFilter` falls through to
+  no-watch — `InitializeAsync` still succeeds.
+- The `EventFilter` selects only the `EventType` field (a `WhereClause`
+  constrains by `OfType BaseModelChangeEventType`). Payload fields like
+  `Changes[]` are intentionally ignored: the driver always re-imports the
+  full upstream root, so per-event delta tracking would just add wire
+  overhead.
+- Debounce is implemented via a single-shot `Timer`; every event calls
+  `Timer.Change(window, Infinite)` so a burst of N events triggers exactly
+  one re-import after the window elapses with no further events.
+- The re-import path acquires the same `_gate` semaphore that `ReadAsync`
+  / `WriteAsync` / `BrowseAsync` / `SubscribeAsync` use. Downstream callers
+  see a brief browse-gap (≈ the upstream `DiscoverAsync` duration) while
+  the gate is held — but no torn reads or split-batch writes.
+- Failure during the re-import is best-effort: the next `ModelChangeEvent`
+  triggers another attempt, and the keep-alive watchdog covers permanent
+  upstream loss. Operators see failures through `DriverHealth.LastError`
+  + the diagnostics counters.
+
+### When to disable
+
+Flip `WatchModelChanges` to `false` when:
+
+- The upstream topology is known-static (e.g. firmware-pinned PLC) and
+  the driver should never run a re-import unprompted.
+- The brief browse-gap during re-import is unacceptable and a manual
+  `ReinitializeAsync` call from the operator is preferred.
+- The upstream server fires spurious `ModelChangeEvent`s that don't
+  reflect real topology changes, causing wasted re-imports. Tighten or
+  disable rather than chasing the noise downstream.
+
+## Reverse Connect (server-initiated)
+
+OPC UA's reverse-connect mode flips the transport direction: instead of the
+client dialling the server, the **server** dials the client's listener. The
+upstream sends a `ReverseHello` and the client continues the OPC UA
+handshake on the inbound socket. Required for OT-DMZ deployments where the
+plant firewall only permits outbound traffic from the upstream — the
+gateway opens a listener, the upstream reaches out.
+
+### Configuration
+
+| Option | Default | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `ReverseConnect.Enabled` | `false` | Opt-in. When `true`, replaces the failover dial-sweep with a `WaitForConnection` call. |
+| `ReverseConnect.ListenerUrl` | `null` | Local listener URL the SDK binds. Typically `opc.tcp://0.0.0.0:4844` (any interface) or a specific NIC for multi-homed gateways. **Required when `Enabled` is `true`.** |
+| `ReverseConnect.ExpectedServerUri` | `null` | Upstream's `ApplicationUri` to filter inbound dials. `null` accepts the first connection (only safe with one upstream targeting the listener). |
+
+### Shared listener (singleton)
+
+A single underlying `Opc.Ua.Client.ReverseConnectManager` per process keyed
+on `ListenerUrl`. Two driver instances that share a listener URL multiplex
+onto one TCP socket; the SDK demuxes inbound dials by the upstream's
+reported `ServerUri`. The wrapper (`ReverseConnectListener`) is
+reference-counted — first `Acquire` binds the port, last `Release` tears it
+down. Letting drivers come and go independently without races on
+port-bind / port-unbind.
+
+When two drivers share a listener:
+
+- They MUST set `ExpectedServerUri` to disambiguate; otherwise the first
+  upstream to dial in wins regardless of which driver is waiting.
+- They CAN come and go independently; the listener stays alive while at
+  least one driver references it.
+
+### Behaviour
+
+- The dial path is bypassed entirely when `Enabled` is `true`. Failover
+  across multiple `EndpointUrls` doesn't apply — there's no client-side
+  dial to fail over.
+- `ExpectedServerUri` is the SDK's filter parameter to `WaitForConnectionAsync`.
+  Inbound `ReverseHello`s from a different upstream are ignored and the
+  caller keeps waiting.
+- The same `EndpointDescription` derivation runs as the dial path — the
+  first `EndpointUrl` in the candidate list seeds `SecurityPolicy` /
+  `SecurityMode` / `EndpointUrl` for the session-create call. The actual
+  endpoint lives on the upstream and the SDK reconciles after the
+  `ReverseHello`.
+- Cancellation: `Timeout` bounds the wait. A stuck listener with no inbound
+  dial throws after `Timeout` rather than hanging init forever.
+- Shutdown releases the listener reference. The last release stops the
+  listener so the port can be re-bound by a future driver lifecycle.
+
+### Wiring it up on the upstream
+
+The upstream OPC UA server has to be configured to dial out. The `opc-plc`
+simulator does this with `--rc=opc.tcp://<gateway-host>:4844`; for a real
+upstream see your server's reverse-connect docs (most major implementations
+expose a "ReverseConnect.Endpoint" config knob).
+
+### When NOT to use
+
+- Standard plant networks where the gateway can dial the upstream — the
+  conventional dial path is simpler and supports failover natively.
+- Public-internet OPC UA: reverse-connect is a network-policy workaround,
+  not a security primitive. Always pair with `Sign` or `SignAndEncrypt`
+  + a vetted user-token policy.
+
+## HistoryRead Events
+
+The driver passes through OPC UA `HistoryReadEvents` to the upstream server.
+HistoryRead Raw / Processed / AtTime ship in the same code path
+(`ExecuteHistoryReadAsync`); event history takes a slightly different shape
+because the client sends an `EventFilter` (SelectClauses + WhereClause) rather
+than a plain numeric / time-based detail block.
+
+### Wire path
+
+`IHistoryProvider.ReadEventsAsync(fullReference, EventHistoryRequest, ct)`
+translates to:
+
+```
+new ReadEventDetails {
+    StartTime,
+    EndTime,
+    NumValuesPerNode,
+    Filter = EventFilter { SelectClauses, WhereClause }
+}
+```
+
+…and is sent through `Session.HistoryReadAsync` to the upstream server. The
+returned `HistoryEvent.Events` collection (one `HistoryEventFieldList` per
+historical event) is unwrapped into `HistoricalEventBatch.Events`, where each
+`HistoricalEventRow.Fields` dictionary is keyed by the
+`SimpleAttributeSpec.FieldName` the caller supplied. The server-side history
+dispatcher uses those keys to align fields with the wire-side SelectClause
+order — drivers don't have to honour the entire OPC UA `EventFilter` shape
+verbatim.
+
+### SelectClauses
+
+When `EventHistoryRequest.SelectClauses` is `null` the driver falls back to a
+default set that matches `BuildHistoryEvent` on the server side:
+
+| Field | Browse path | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `EventId` | `EventId` | BaseEventType — stable unique id. |
+| `SourceName` | `SourceName` | Source-object name. |
+| `Time` | `Time` | Process-side event timestamp. Used for `OccurrenceTime`. |
+| `Message` | `Message` | LocalizedText payload. |
+| `Severity` | `Severity` | OPC UA 1-1000 scale. |
+| `ReceiveTime` | `ReceiveTime` | Server-side ingest timestamp. |
+
+Custom SelectClauses are supported — pass any
+`IReadOnlyList<SimpleAttributeSpec>`. Each entry's `TypeDefinitionId`
+defaults to `BaseEventType` when `null`; pass an explicit NodeId text (e.g.
+`"i=2782"` for `ConditionType`) to reach typed-condition fields.
+
+### WhereClause
+
+`ContentFilterSpec.EncodedOperands` carries the binary-encoded
+`ContentFilter` from the wire. The driver decodes it into the SDK
+`ContentFilter` and attaches it to the outgoing `EventFilter` verbatim — the
+OPC UA Client driver is a passthrough for filter semantics, it does not
+evaluate them. A malformed filter is dropped silently; the SelectClause
+projection still goes out.
+
+### Continuation points
+
+Returned in `HistoricalEventBatch.ContinuationPoint`. The server-side
+HistoryRead facade is responsible for round-tripping these so a paged event
+read against a chatty upstream completes incrementally. The driver itself
+doesn't track them — every `ReadEventsAsync` call issues a fresh
+`HistoryReadAsync`.
+
+## HistoryRead Aggregates (Part 13 catalog)
+
+`IHistoryProvider.ReadProcessedAsync` takes a `HistoryAggregateType` and the
+driver maps it to the standard `Opc.Ua.ObjectIds.AggregateFunction_*` NodeId
+in `MapAggregateToNodeId`. PR-13 (issue #285) extended the enum from the
+original 5 values (Average / Minimum / Maximum / Total / Count) to the full
+OPC UA Part 13 §5 catalog — ~30 aggregates.
+
+The mapping is best-effort: not every upstream OPC UA server implements every
+aggregate. Aggregates the upstream rejects come back with
+`StatusCode=BadAggregateNotSupported` on the per-row HistoryRead result; the
+driver passes that through verbatim (cascading-quality rule, Part 11 §8) — it
+does not throw. Servers advertise the aggregates they support via the
+`AggregateConfiguration` object on the `Server` node; clients can probe it at
+runtime.
+
+### Catalog
+
+| Enum value | SDK NodeId field | Part 13 § | Server-side support | Typical use |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |

+"Server-side support" is heuristic — see your upstream's `AggregateConfiguration`
+node for the authoritative list. AVEVA Historian, KEPServerEX, Prosys, and
+opc-plc each implement different subsets.
+
+### Driver-side validation
+
+The mapping itself is unit-tested over the full enum
+(`OpcUaClientAggregateMappingTests`) — every value resolves to a non-null
+namespace-0 NodeId, and the original 5 ordinals stay pinned. Wire-side
+behaviour against a live server is exercised by
+`OpcUaClientAggregateSweepTests` (build-only scaffold pending an opc-plc
+history-sim profile).
+
+## Upstream redundancy (`ServerArray`)
+
+When the upstream OPC UA server is itself a redundant pair (warm or hot per
+OPC UA Part 4 §6.6.2), the driver supports **mid-session failover** driven by
+the upstream's own `Server.ServerRedundancy.RedundancySupport` +
+`ServerUriArray` + `Server.ServiceLevel` nodes. Distinct from the static
+boot-time failover sweep on `EndpointUrls`: that path picks a single survivor
+at session-create time; this path swaps the active session live when the
+upstream signals degradation, transferring subscriptions onto the secondary so
+monitored-item handles stay valid.
+
+### Configuration
+
+| Option | Default | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `Redundancy.Enabled` | `false` | Opt-in. When `false`, the driver doesn't read `RedundancySupport` / `ServerUriArray` and doesn't subscribe to `ServiceLevel`. |
+| `Redundancy.ServiceLevelThreshold` | `200` | Byte value below which the driver triggers failover. OPC UA spec convention: 200+ = healthy primary, 100..199 = degraded, 0..99 = unrecoverable. |
+| `Redundancy.RecheckInterval` | `5s` | Lower bound between two consecutive failovers — suppresses oscillation when ServiceLevel flaps around the threshold. |
+
+### Behaviour
+
+- At session activation the driver reads
+  `Server.ServerRedundancy.RedundancySupport`. When `None`, the driver records
+  an empty peer list and the failover path becomes a no-op (`ServiceLevel`
+  drops are still observable via diagnostics but trigger nothing).
+- When the upstream advertises `Cold` / `Warm` / `WarmActive` / `Hot`, the
+  driver pulls `Server.ServerRedundancy.ServerUriArray` for the peer list,
+  falling back to the top-level `Server.ServerArray` for legacy upstreams that
+  don't expose the redundancy node.
+- A dedicated subscription on `Server.ServiceLevel` (publish interval 1s,
+  separate from the alarm + data subscriptions) drives every failover decision
+  via the SDK's notification path — no polling loop.
+- On a drop below `ServiceLevelThreshold` the driver picks the next URI in the
+  peer list that isn't the active one, opens a parallel session against it,
+  and calls `Session.TransferSubscriptionsAsync(other, sendInitialValues:true)`
+  to migrate every live subscription (data + alarm + model-change +
+  service-level itself). On success the driver swaps `Session`, closes the
+  old one, and bumps `RedundancyFailoverCount`.
+- On any failure (`BadSecureChannelClosed`, `BadCertificateUntrusted`,
+  `TransferSubscriptions` returning `false`, secondary unreachable) the driver
+  leaves the existing session untouched, increments
+  `RedundancyFailoverFailures`, and waits for the next ServiceLevel
+  notification. The keep-alive watchdog continues to cover full
+  upstream-loss scenarios.
+
+### Shared client-cert prerequisite
+
+`TransferSubscriptionsAsync` requires the secondary's secure channel to accept
+the same client certificate the primary did. Operators running heterogeneous
+secondaries (different cert trust stores) will see `BadCertificateUntrusted`
+on every failover attempt and the failures counter climbing. The fix is to
+push the gateway driver's application-instance certificate into both
+upstreams' `TrustedPeerCertificates` store before enabling redundancy. A
+follow-up adds a fallback path that re-creates subscriptions instead of
+transferring when the secondary rejects the channel.
+
+### Diagnostics
+
+The `driver-diagnostics` RPC surfaces three new counters via
+`DriverHealth.Diagnostics`:
+
+| Key | Type | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `RedundancyFailoverCount` | `double` (long-counted) | Successful mid-session swaps since driver start. |
+| `RedundancyFailoverFailures` | `double` (long-counted) | Swap attempts that bailed (TransferSubscriptions false, secondary unreachable, etc.). |
+| `ActiveServerUri` | string (in `OpcUaClientDiagnostics.ActiveServerUri`) | URI of the upstream the driver is currently bound to. Updates on every successful failover. |
+
+### Forced-failover runbook
+
+To validate the wiring against a real redundant upstream pair:
+
+1. Confirm the upstream advertises `RedundancySupport != None` and a
+   non-empty `ServerUriArray`. Use the Client CLI:
+   `dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- redundancy -u <primary>`.
+2. Set `Redundancy.Enabled = true` on the gateway's `OpcUaClient` driver
+   instance and restart.
+3. Tail driver diagnostics:
+   `driver-diagnostics --instance <id>` — note `RedundancyFailoverCount = 0`
+   pre-test.
+4. Drive a `ServiceLevel` drop on the primary. On AVEVA / KEPServer this is
+   typically a "force standby" Admin action; on a custom server it's a write
+   to the simulated ServiceLevel node.
+5. Observe `RedundancyFailoverCount = 1` within `RecheckInterval` of the
+   drop, the gateway's `HostName` swap to the secondary URI, and downstream
+   reads/subscriptions continuing without interruption.
+
+For non-redundant upstreams (single-server deployments) the recommended
+configuration is to leave `Redundancy.Enabled = false` and rely on
+`EndpointUrls` for boot-time failover only.

+TIA Portal "Show all tags" CSV exports and STEP 7 Classic AWL declaration files
+into the S7 driver. Saves operators from hand-typing every `%MW0` /
+`%DB1.DBW0` row of a several-hundred-tag PLC into `appsettings.json`.
+
+## Supported formats — v1

+| `Logical address` (or `Address`) | yes | TIA-style address with leading `%` (e.g. `%MW0`, `%DB1.DBW10`, `%DB1.DBX2.3`). Stripped on import |
+| `Data type` | recommended | TIA primitive type (`Int`, `Real`, `Bool`, `String`, …) — drives the imported `S7DataType` |
+| `Comment` | no | Parsed but currently unused — `S7TagDefinition` has no `Description` field at the v2 schema layer (see [#248](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/248)). Held in the column contract for future schema bumps |
+| `Hmi accessible` | no | Filter — rows with `False` / `FALSCH` / `nein` are skipped (internal symbols TIA shows in the editor but doesn't expose to client interfaces). Missing column defaults to `True` |
+| `Hmi visible` / `Hmi writeable` | no | Currently unused — held for future Admin-UI-side metadata |
+| `Length` | no | For `String` rows: max length. Default 254. Drives `StringLength` on the imported tag |
+| `Path` | no | TIA tag-table path (`Default tag table`, custom names). Currently unused; held in the contract |
+

+| `DTL` | `Dtl` | 12-byte structured (S7-1200 / S7-1500) |
+| `S5Time` | `S5Time` | 16-bit BCD duration |
+| `Struct` / quoted UDT name | UDT placeholder | See below |
+
+### UDT placeholders
+
+UDT-typed symbols (TIA `Data type` = `"MyUdt"` quoted, or the literal `Struct`)
+import as a **placeholder** — the resulting tag lands in the driver options so
+it shows up in the Admin UI tag list, but its data type is forced to `Byte`
+and the row is marked `Writable = false`.
+
+`S7ImportResult.UdtPlaceholderCount` tracks how many of the imported tags
+landed in this bucket.
+
+#### Cooperation with `Udts` declarations (PR-S7-D2 / #300)
+
+PR-S7-D2 ships UDT fan-out via `S7DriverOptions.Udts` + `S7TagDefinition.UdtName`.
+The importer and the `Udts` declaration cooperate as follows:
+
+1. The importer emits a placeholder row for each UDT-typed symbol — same as
+   today (data type forced to `Byte`, `Writable = false`).
+2. The operator hand-edits the placeholder row in the resulting JSON / options
+   object and:
+   - Sets `UdtName` to the UDT type name from the TIA "Data type" column
+   - Removes the `Writable: false` marker (UDT leaves inherit the parent's
+     writability)
+3. The operator declares the matching `S7UdtDefinition` in
+   `S7DriverOptions.Udts` (member offsets come from the TIA UDT definition
+   in the project file — TIA's "Show all tags" CSV does not export struct
+   field offsets, hence the manual layout step).
+4. At driver init, the fan-out replaces the placeholder with one scalar leaf
+   per UDT member.
+
+The importer does NOT auto-populate `Udts` — UDT layouts live in the project
+file, not the symbol-table CSV. A future enhancement may parse the SCL UDT
+declaration alongside the CSV; for now the cooperation is "importer flags it,
+operator declares the layout, driver fans out at init".
+
+See [`docs/v2/s7.md` "UDT / STRUCT support"](../v2/s7.md#udt--struct-support)
+for the full fan-out semantics, the 4-level nesting cap, and the
+Optimized-block-access prerequisite.
+
+## Instance DBs / FB parameters
+
+PR-S7-D3 / [#301](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/301) — multi-instance
+Function-Block (FB) instances are addressed symbolically inside the PLC program
+(`MyFB_Instance.MyParam`) but the runtime wire access still needs the absolute
+`DBn.DBW_offset`. TIA Portal's "Show all tags" CSV export distinguishes these
+rows from regular global DBs via the **`DB type`** column.
+
+### `DB type` column convention
+
+| `DB type` value | Meaning | Path |
+|---|---|---|
+| (empty) | Legacy export — no column at all (TIA pre-v15 / partial export). Treated as Global. | D1 (existing) |
+| `Global DB` / `Global` / `Global Data Block` | Standalone DB declared in the project tree. | D1 (existing) |
+| `Globaler Datenbaustein` | Same as above, DE locale. | D1 (existing) |
+| `Instance DB` / `Instance` / `Instance Data Block` | Multi-instance FB instance. Member tags are the FB's `IN` / `OUT` / `IN_OUT` / `STAT` parameters. | **D3 (new)** |
+| `Instance-DB` / `Instanz-DB` / `Instanz-Datenbaustein` | Same as above (locale + dashing variants). | **D3 (new)** |
+
+The `DB type` column is matched case-insensitively; quoting and surrounding
+whitespace are tolerated.
+
+### `MyFB_Instance.MyParam` → `DBn.DBW_offset`
+
+The TIA Portal export ships the **resolved absolute address** in the
+`Logical address` column for every instance-DB member — TIA itself walks the FB
+interface declaration at export time and writes out the byte-offset-anchored
+address verbatim. The importer accepts these rows the same way as a Global-DB
+row, with two differences:
+
+1. The row counts under `S7ImportResult.InstanceDbCount` (a sub-counter of
+   `ParsedCount`) so the operator can see how much of the import depends on the
+   FB-interface layout.
+2. The row is rejected from the UDT placeholder path even if the data type
+   column happens to match a UDT name pattern — instance-DB members always
+   import as fully-functional scalar tags.
+
+Example fixture row:
+
+```csv
+Name,Path,Data type,Logical address,Comment,Hmi accessible,DB type
+MotorFB_1.Speed,FB instances,Int,%DB7.DBW0,Speed setpoint,True,Instance DB
+```
+
+The imported `S7TagDefinition` ends up with:
+
+```csharp
+new S7TagDefinition(
+    Name: "MotorFB_1.Speed",
+    Address: "DB7.DBW0",
+    DataType: S7DataType.Int16,
+    Writable: true);
+```
+
+### Empty-`Logical address` fallback
+
+When TIA exports an instance-DB row with an empty `Logical address` column
+(rare in practice — happens when the export was generated against a
+not-yet-compiled project), `InstanceDbResolver` can compute the absolute
+address from explicit parent-DB / parent-base-offset / member-offset inputs.
+This fallback is exposed at the resolver-class level for advanced bootstrap
+scenarios; the CSV path itself does not currently parse interface declarations
+out of the file (TIA's CSV doesn't carry them).
+
+For now the operator workflow is: re-export from TIA after compiling the
+project so every instance-DB row carries a resolved `Logical address`.
+
+### Re-import on FB-interface edit — caveat
+
+When the FB interface changes — a member is added, removed, or reordered in
+TIA — the instance-DB layout shifts on the PLC side. Member byte offsets that
+worked yesterday point at the wrong word today; absolute-offset addressing has
+no in-band schema check.
+
+**The driver does not auto-detect this.** Operators must:
+
+1. Recompile the FB in TIA Portal.
+2. Download the updated program to the PLC.
+3. **Re-export "Show all tags" CSV** from the updated project.
+4. Re-import the CSV via `AddTiaCsvImport` or the `import-symbols` CLI.
+5. Restart the driver instance (Admin UI → Drivers → Reload).
+
+A stale import will silently read / write the wrong byte offsets — the values
+will look like valid PLC data but reference whichever member used to live at
+that offset before the interface edit. There is no runtime guard; this is the
+same caveat that applies to all absolute-offset DB addressing on S7-1200 /
+1500 (see [`docs/v2/s7.md` "UDT / STRUCT support"](../v2/s7.md#udt--struct-support)
+for the parallel UDT-edit story).
+
+A future enhancement may add a project-fingerprint compare at driver init —
+hashing the interface offsets at import time and re-checking against a known
+PLC system function. Tracked as a follow-up; not in PR-S7-D3.
+
+## DE locale handling
+
+TIA Portal honours the Windows display locale when writing CSV. A DE-locale
+install emits:
+
+- Field separator `;` (because `,` is the decimal separator)
+- Decimal-comma in addresses: `%MW0,5` rather than `%MW0.5` for bit addresses
+- Boolean column values `WAHR` / `FALSCH` rather than `True` / `False`
+
+The importer **auto-detects** the locale from the first non-blank line:
+
+- Field-separator detection: counts `;` vs `,` occurrences in the header
+- Decimal-comma detection: scans the first data row's address column for a
+  digit-comma-digit pattern
+- Boolean column values: recognises both languages (`true/false/wahr/falsch/yes/no/ja/nein`,
+  case-insensitive) plus bare `0`/`1`
+
+The address column is rewritten to en-US shape (`%MW0,5` → `MW0.5`) before the
+strict `S7AddressParser` runs, so the rest of the driver pipeline sees a
+single canonical address shape.
+
+## STEP 7 Classic AWL — `VAR_GLOBAL` + `DATA_BLOCK`
+
+Best-effort parser for legacy STEP 7 Classic projects:
+
+- `VAR_GLOBAL … END_VAR` — global memory area declarations. Each entry maps to
+  a sequential `M{B|W|D}{offset}` address based on declaration order.
+- `DATA_BLOCK DBn … END_DATA_BLOCK` — DB declarations. Each field maps to a
+  `DB{n}.DB{B|W|D}{offset}` address based on declaration order; the DB number
+  is parsed from the `DATA_BLOCK` line's `DBn` keyword.
+
+### Position-based addressing — heuristic
+
+Real STEP 7 Classic projects carry exact byte offsets in the symbol table /
+.gr8 deployment artefact, but a hand-exported AWL file omits them. The
+importer assumes:
+
+| Type | Bytes |
+|---|---|
+| `BOOL` | 1 (rounded up to byte alignment) |
+| `BYTE` / `SINT` / `USINT` / `CHAR` | 1 |
+| `INT` / `WORD` / `UINT` | 2 |
+| `DINT` / `DWORD` / `UDINT` / `REAL` | 4 |
+| `LREAL` / `LINT` / `ULINT` / `LWORD` | 8 |
+| `STRING[N]` | N + 2 (2-byte header) |
+| `STRING` (no length) | 256 |
+| `STRUCT` / `Array[…] of …` / quoted UDT name | UDT placeholder (8-bit Byte at next aligned offset) |
+
+S7 alignment rule: offsets round up to a 2-byte boundary for any 16-bit-or-larger
+type. Sites needing exact offsets should drive their symbol import from the
+TIA Portal CSV path instead — the CSV carries the offsets verbatim.
+
+Comments (`(* ... *)` block, `// ...` line) are stripped before declaration
+parsing. Initial-value clauses (`:= 0`) are recognised and discarded.

+### `appsettings-fragment` output shape
+
+The default `--emit appsettings-fragment` mode writes a JSON object whose
+`Tags` array is shaped like the `S7DriverConfigDto.Tags` array — paste
+straight into the driver-instance config under
+`Drivers/<instance>/Config/Tags`.
+
+```json
+{
+  "Tags": [
+    {
+      "Name": "MotorSpeed",
+      "Address": "MW0",
+      "DataType": "Int16",
+      "Writable": true,
+      "StringLength": 254
+    },
+    …
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### Summary line
+
+`--emit summary` writes a single line:
+
+```
+Imported 142 tag(s), skipped 3, errors 0, udt-placeholders 5, instance-db 9.
+```
+
+`Skipped` covers HMI-accessible-false rows + missing-required-field rows;
+`errors` covers rows whose `Address` failed to parse as an S7 address;
+`udt-placeholders` covers UDT-typed rows that imported as placeholders;
+`instance-db` (PR-S7-D3) covers rows whose `DB type` column tagged them as
+multi-instance FB-instance members.
+
+## API surface — `IS7SymbolImporter` + `AddTiaCsvImport` / `AddAwlImport`
+
+For server-side / bootstrap use-cases the importer is reachable via:
+
+```csharp
+using ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.S7;
+using ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.S7.SymbolImport;
+
+var options = new S7DriverOptions { Host = "192.168.1.30", CpuType = CpuType.S71500 };
+
+// Append imported tags onto an existing options object.
+var updated = options.AddTiaCsvImport(
+    path: @"C:\plc\tia-export.csv",
+    out var result);
+
+Console.WriteLine($"Imported {result.ParsedCount} tags ({result.UdtPlaceholderCount} placeholders)");
+
+// AWL variant — same shape.
+var withAwl = updated.AddAwlImport(
+    path: @"C:\plc\classic.awl",
+    out var awlResult);
+```
+
+For a hand-managed importer instance (e.g. supplying a custom `ILogger`) call
+`new TiaCsvImporter(logger).Parse(stream, opts)` or
+`new AwlImporter(logger).Parse(stream, opts)` directly.
+
+## Operational notes
+
+- The importers are **additive** — `AddTiaCsvImport` / `AddAwlImport` concatenate
+  onto the existing `Tags` list rather than replacing it. Hand-rolled tags
+  (system-status variables, computed fields the operator added by hand) survive
+  a re-import.
+- Re-imports are not idempotent — calling `AddTiaCsvImport` twice will produce
+  duplicate tag rows. Operators are expected to start from a clean options
+  object or de-duplicate themselves; a future schema rev may add a
+  `replace=true` switch.
+- UDT placeholders surface in the Admin UI as non-writable Byte tags. PR-S7-D2
+  added the runtime UDT fan-out (`S7DriverOptions.Udts` + `S7TagDefinition.UdtName`)
+  — operators upgrade a placeholder row by setting `UdtName` and declaring the
+  matching `S7UdtDefinition`; see "Cooperation with `Udts` declarations" above.
+  Placeholder-only rows still work as a Byte view of the first byte but
+  can't browse / read their members until the layout is declared.
+- Description metadata is dropped on the floor today — see the column
+  reference above. When [#248](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/248)
+  lands a `Description` field on `S7TagDefinition` the importer will start
+  populating it without further changes to the CSV contract.

+## Performance
+
+PR 2.1 (Sum-read / Sum-write, IndexGroup `0xF080..0xF084`) replaced the per-tag
+`ReadValueAsync` loop in `TwinCATDriver.ReadAsync` / `WriteAsync` with a
+bucketed bulk dispatch — N tags addressed against the same device flow through a
+single ADS sum-command round-trip via `SumInstancePathAnyTypeRead` (read) and
+`SumWriteBySymbolPath` (write). Whole-array tags + bit-extracted BOOL tags
+remain on the per-tag fallback path because the sum surface only marshals
+scalars and bit-RMW writes need the per-parent serialisation lock.
+
+**Baseline → Sum-command delta** (dev box, 1000 × DINT, XAR VM over LAN):
+
+| Path | Round-trips | Wall-clock |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Per-tag loop (pre-PR 2.1) | 1000 | ~5–8 s |
+| Sum-command bulk (PR 2.1) | 1 | ~250–600 ms |
+| Ratio | — | ≥ 10× typical, ≥ 5× CI floor |
+
+The perf-tier test
+`TwinCATSumCommandPerfTests.Driver_sum_read_1000_tags_beats_loop_baseline_by_5x`
+asserts the ratio with a conservative 5× lower bound that survives noisy CI /
+VM scheduling. It is gated behind both `TWINCAT_TARGET_NETID` (XAR reachable)
+and `TWINCAT_PERF=1` (operator opt-in) — perf runs aren't part of the default
+integration pass because they hit the wire heavily.
+
+The required fixture state (1000-DINT GVL + churn POU) is documented in
+`TwinCatProject/README.md §Performance scenarios`; XAE-form sources land at
+`TwinCatProject/PLC/GVLs/GVL_Perf.TcGVL` + `TwinCatProject/PLC/POUs/FB_PerfChurn.TcPOU`.
+
+### Handle caching (PR 2.2)
+
+Per-tag reads / writes route through an in-process ADS variable-handle cache.
+The first read of a symbol resolves a handle via `CreateVariableHandleAsync`;
+subsequent reads / writes of the same symbol issue against the cached handle.
+On the wire this trades a multi-byte symbolic path (`GVL_Perf.aTags[742]` =
+20+ bytes) for a 4-byte handle, and the device server skips name resolution
+on every subsequent op. Cache lifetime is process-scoped; entries are evicted
+on `AdsErrorCode.DeviceSymbolVersionInvalid` (with one retry against a fresh
+handle), wiped on reconnect (handles are per-AMS-session), and deleted
+best-effort on driver disposal.
+
+`TwinCATHandleCachePerfTests.Driver_handle_cache_avoids_repeat_symbol_resolution`
+asserts the contract on real XAR by reading 50 symbols twice and verifying
+the second pass issues zero new `CreateVariableHandleAsync` calls. It runs
+under the standard `[TwinCATFact]` gate (XAR reachable; no `TWINCAT_PERF`
+opt-in needed because 50 symbols is cheap).
+
+**Self-invalidation (PR 2.3)**: handle cache is now self-invalidating on
+TwinCAT online changes. `AdsTwinCATClient` registers an
+`AdsSymbolVersionChanged` event listener (Beckhoff's high-level wrapper
+around the SymbolVersion ADS notification, IndexGroup `0xF008`) on connect;
+when the PLC's symbol-version counter increments — full re-init after a
+download / activate-config — the listener fires and wipes the handle cache
+proactively. Three-layered defence in depth: (1) proactive listener
+preempts the next read entirely on full re-inits, (2) the
+`DeviceSymbolVersionInvalid` evict-and-retry path from PR 2.2 catches the
+narrower "symbol survives but its descriptor moved" race, and (3)
+operators can still call `ITwinCATClient.FlushOptionalCachesAsync` manually
+for the truly-paranoid case. The bulk Sum-read / Sum-write path remains
+on symbolic paths in PR 2.2 (the bulk path's per-call symbol resolution
+is already amortised across N tags; the perf delta vs. handle-batched
+bulk is marginal — tracked as a follow-up for the Phase-2 perf sweep).
+
+## Diagnostics
+
+PR 3.2 (#314) augments the probe loop. On every successful tick (post `ReadStateAsync`)
+the driver also reads four well-known system symbols off the AMS target and stashes
+them on `DeviceState.LastDiagnostics` as a `TwinCATDeviceDiagnostics` record. The same
+snapshot is folded into `DriverHealth.Diagnostics` so the cross-driver
+`driver-diagnostics` RPC (added for Modbus, task #154) renders TwinCAT cycle-time /
+jitter / online-change counters next to its peers without a per-driver special-case.
+
+| Symbol | Type | Diagnostic key | Notes |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| `TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._AppInfo.AppName` | `STRING(80)` | (record only) | Running PLC project name, e.g. `"Plc1"` |
+| `TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._AppInfo.OnlineChangeCnt` | `UDINT` | `TwinCAT.OnlineChangeCnt` | Increments on every accepted online change; informational |
+| `TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._TaskInfo[1].CycleTime` | `UDINT` (100 ns ticks) | `TwinCAT.CycleTimeMs` | Configured task period after `÷10000` ms conversion |
+| `TwinCAT_SystemInfoVarList._TaskInfo[1].LastExecTime` | `UDINT` (100 ns ticks) | `TwinCAT.LastExecTimeMs` | Wall-clock duration of the last task tick |
+| (computed) | `double` | `TwinCAT.JitterMs` | `LastExecTimeMs - CycleTimeMs`; positive = overrun |
+| (computed) | `long` | `TwinCAT.OnlineChangeIncrements` | Cumulative deltas observed since the driver started; only emitted once non-zero |
+
+Each individual read is wrapped in best-effort try/catch. A runtime that doesn't
+expose `_TaskInfo[1]` (older TwinCAT 2 builds, some soft-PLC implementations) still
+produces a partial snapshot; the missing fields fall back to the previous tick's value
+or the type default for the first probe tick. Wholesale failure of all four reads
+leaves the previous snapshot in place and the next tick retries.
+
+Single-device deployments produce flat keys (`TwinCAT.CycleTimeMs`); multi-device
+deployments prefix with the AMS host address (`TwinCAT.<hostAddress>.CycleTimeMs`)
+so the readout is unambiguous when one driver instance owns multiple AMS targets.
+
+Wire-level coverage lives in
+`TwinCATDiagnosticsIntegrationTests.Probe_loop_surfaces_cycle_time_and_online_change_count`
+(asserts `CycleTimeMs > 0` + `OnlineChangeCnt >= 0` within one probe interval against a
+reachable XAR runtime). Unit-level coverage of the dictionary shape, the per-symbol
+try/catch, and the multi-device prefixing lives in `TwinCATDeviceDiagnosticsTests` —
+the `FakeTwinCATClient.SetSystemSymbolValue` helper drives the surface deterministically.

+
+## FOCAS write-path opt-in
+
+**Issue:** [#268](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/268). **Plan PR:** F4-a.
+
+### Decision
+
+The FOCAS driver ships writes behind two independent opt-ins, both default
+off:
+
+1. **Driver-level master switch** — `FocasDriverOptions.Writes.Enabled`,
+   default `false`. When off, every entry in a `WriteAsync` batch short-
+   circuits to `BadNotWritable` with status text `writes disabled at
+   driver level`. The wire client is never touched.
+2. **Per-tag opt-in** — `FocasTagDefinition.Writable`, default `false`
+   (flipped from `true` in F4-a). A `Writable = false` tag returns
+   `BadNotWritable` even when the driver-level flag is on.
+
+`BadNotSupported` is reserved for kinds the wire client hasn't yet
+implemented; F4-b/c land actual macro / parameter / PMC writes that
+currently dispatch to `BadNotSupported` (or to `Good` against the F4-a
+fake) for unimplemented branches.
+
+### Alternatives considered
+
+- **Always-on writes (the pre-F4-a default).** Rejected: a single
+  misconfigured tag flipping `Writable = true` by accident would let an
+  operator overwrite a CNC parameter from any OPC UA client. The two-
+  opt-in posture means an accidental tag flip alone isn't enough.
+- **Driver-level switch only.** Rejected: doesn't protect against an
+  operator with admin rights flipping the master switch to do bulk diag
+  reads but inheriting write capability for tags that were intended
+  read-only.
+- **Per-tag opt-in only.** Rejected: doesn't give the deployment an "all
+  writes off" emergency lever — useful during a CNC commissioning where
+  writes are unsafe across the board for a period.
+
+### Rationale
+
+CNC writes are non-idempotent in the field's worst-case shape: feed
+overrides, M-code pulses, alarm acks, recipe-step advances. Two opt-ins
+is the cheapest defence-in-depth posture that still lets writes ship.
+Both default off so a fresh deployment is read-only — the explicit choice
+to enable writes lands at config time where it's reviewable, not at
+runtime where it's invisible.
+
+`WriteIdempotent` plumbs through `CapabilityInvoker.ExecuteWriteAsync`
+into the Polly retry pipeline; default `false` means failed writes are
+not auto-retried (plan decisions #44 / #45). Per-tag flip required for
+genuinely-idempotent writes.
+
+### CLI carve-out
+
+`otopcua-focas-cli write` sets `Writes.Enabled = true` locally for the
+lifetime of one process and synthesises a `Writable = true` tag. The CLI
+is a per-operator direct-to-CNC tool — not a long-lived process bound to
+the central config DB. Configuring the server still requires both opt-ins
+to be set explicitly in the DriverInstance JSON. The bypass is documented
+in `docs/Driver.FOCAS.Cli.md` so operators understand the asymmetry.
+
+### Migration
+
+Pre-F4-a deployments that relied on the `Writable = true` default need to
+add `"Writable": true` to every tag they intend to write + an enclosing
+`"Writes": { "Enabled": true }` block in their DriverInstance JSON.
+Bootstrap rows seeded before F4-a get `Writable = false` after upgrade —
+this is intentional; review-then-flip is the safer migration path.

+## Derived telemetry — issue #272 (plan PR F5-a)
+
+The `Production/` subtree gains two **derived** nodes alongside the four
+F1-b wire-sourced fields:
+
+- `Production/LastCycleSeconds` (`Float64`)
+- `Production/LastCycleStartUtc` (`DateTime` UTC)
+
+**No new wire calls.** Both nodes are computed client-visible from the
+same `cnc_rdparam(6711)` + `cnc_rdtimer` poll the F1-b projection
+already runs on every probe tick. There is no per-device knob — the
+nodes are present for every CNC the driver connects to and surface
+`null` until the second observed parts-count increment produces the
+first delta.
+
+This means:
+
+- **No additional CNC load.** Probe-tick wire traffic is unchanged.
+- **No new opt-in.** The nodes ship enabled by default and are
+  read-only (`SecurityClassification.ViewOnly`); no LDAP group needs
+  the new permission.
+- **Reconnect re-baselines.** Per the FWLIB session boundary the
+  derivation state resets on reconnect / reinit, so the first cycle

+
+## Write safety — issue #269 (PARAM/MACRO, F4-b) + issue #270 (PMC, F4-c)
+
+The FOCAS driver supports `cnc_wrparam`, `cnc_wrmacro`, and `pmc_wrpmcrng`
+writes behind multiple independent opt-ins. A misdirected parameter write
+can put the CNC in a bad state; a misdirected PMC write can move motion or
+latch a feedhold. The runbook below MUST be followed before flipping any
+of the granular kill switches on.
+
+### Operator pre-checks (every deployment, every change)
+
+1. **CNC must be in MDI mode.** Most parameter writes fail with `EW_PASSWD`
+   (surfaces as `BadUserAccessDenied`) unless the CNC is in MDI. The
+   server-side write returns immediately with the access-denied status; no
+   value reaches the wire.
+2. **Parameter-write switch enabled on the CNC pendant.** Even in MDI mode
+   protected parameters require the operator to physically enable the
+   parameter-write switch. Without it `cnc_wrparam` returns `EW_PASSWD`.
+   Plan PR F4-d will land an OPC UA-side unlock workflow; today the only
+   path is the pendant.
+3. **Verify each tag's address against the FANUC manual.** Ranges vary per
+   CNC series; the
+   [`focas-version-matrix`](./focas-version-matrix.md) capability matrix
+   rejects out-of-range numbers at startup, but address-vs-meaning is the
+   operator's job.
+4. **Dry run with `Writable = true` but `Writes.AllowParameter = false`.**
+   Staged opt-in catches mis-mapped tags: every PARAM write returns
+   `BadNotWritable` until you flip the granular flag, so you can confirm
+   the tag list before any wire write fires.
+
+### PMC pre-checks (in addition to the above) — F4-c
+
+PMC writes have a higher blast radius than PARAM/MACRO writes because PMC
+is the ladder's working memory — bits in R/G/F/D directly drive servo
+enables, feedhold latches, and safety interlocks. Before flipping
+`Writes.AllowPmc` on:
+
+1. **E-stop verified live + reachable.** The first PMC write of a session
+   should be issued with the operator's hand on the e-stop. PMC writes
+   bypass the ladder's normal MDI-mode protections; a misdirected bit can
+   move motion the moment it lands on the wire.
+2. **Machine in JOG mode (or equivalent low-energy mode).** Auto / MEM
+   modes interpret PMC state immediately; JOG / MDI surface symptoms
+   slowly enough that the e-stop is the recovery path. **Never issue the
+   first PMC write of a deployment in Auto.**
+3. **Audit the PMC tag list against the ladder print-out.** `R100.3` on
+   one machine is "homing complete"; on another it's "feedhold released".
+   The driver has no way to distinguish — the ladder source is the only
+   ground truth.
+4. **Bit writes are read-modify-write — see
+   [`docs/drivers/FOCAS.md`](../drivers/FOCAS.md) "PMC bit-write read-modify-write semantics".**
+   `pmc_wrpmcrng` is byte-addressed; the driver reads the parent byte
+   first, masks the target bit, and writes the byte back. Concurrent
+   ladder writes to the same byte create a small race window. Coordinate
+   through a ladder-side handshake when this matters.
+5. **Dry run with `Writable = true` but `Writes.AllowPmc = false`.** Same
+   staged-opt-in pattern as PARAM/MACRO — confirm tag mapping before any
+   PMC byte hits the wire.
+
+### LDAP group requirements
+
+Per [`docs/security.md`](../security.md) the server-layer ACL maps
+`SecurityClassification` to LDAP groups. Post-F4-b:
+
+| Tag kind | LDAP group required |
+| --- | --- |
+| `PARAM:N` (writable) | **`WriteConfigure`** — heaviest write tier; matches commissioning roles |
+| `MACRO:N` (writable) | `WriteOperate` — standard HMI recipe / setpoint group |
+| PMC R/G/F (writable) | `WriteOperate` |
+| Read-only | `ReadOnly` |
+
+Per the `feedback_acl_at_server_layer` design note, the FOCAS driver
+declares the classification but does NOT enforce it; `DriverNodeManager`
+applies the gate before the driver's `WriteAsync` ever runs. A user
+without `WriteConfigure` who attempts a `PARAM:` write gets
+`BadUserAccessDenied` from the server with no driver-level audit entry —
+the OPC UA layer's audit log catches it.
+
+### Audit-log expectations
+
+Every successful write produces:
+
+- An OPC UA AuditWriteEvent (server layer — see
+  [`docs/security.md`](../security.md) "Audit logging").
+- A FOCAS driver-level Serilog entry tagged `Driver=FOCAS DriverInstanceId=...
+  TagName=... Address=... ResultStatus=...`.
+- A `Writes/LastWriteAt` and `Writes/LastWriteStatus` diagnostic counter
+  refresh on the device's `Diagnostics/` fixed-tree node (planned;
+  populated as F4-c lands).
+
+Failures to write (`BadUserAccessDenied`, `BadCommunicationError`, etc.)
+produce the same audit entries with the failure status code so a
+post-incident reviewer sees the same shape regardless of whether the write
+succeeded.
+
+**Audit PMC writes specifically.** Because PMC writes have the highest blast
+radius of the three write kinds, ops should set up a saved-search /
+dashboard query for `Driver=FOCAS` + `Address` matching the PMC letter
+prefixes (`R*`, `G*`, `F*`, `D*`, `Y*`, etc.) and review on the same
+cadence as ladder change reviews. A spike in PMC write rate or a write
+to an address outside the audited tag list is the leading indicator of a
+misconfigured client or compromised credential.
+
+### Granular config example
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "Drivers": {
+    "FOCAS": {
+      "Devices": [
+        { "HostAddress": "focas://10.0.0.5:8193", "Series": "Series30i" }
+      ],
+      "Writes": {
+        "Enabled": true,
+        "AllowMacro": true,        // recipe / setpoint writes — operator role
+        "AllowParameter": false,   // commissioning only — keep locked except during planned work
+        "AllowPmc": false          // PMC writes — keep locked unless the deployment specifically needs them
+      },
+      "Tags": [
+        { "Name": "Recipe.PartCount", "DeviceHostAddress": "focas://10.0.0.5:8193",
+          "Address": "MACRO:500", "DataType": "Int32",
+          "Writable": true, "WriteIdempotent": true },
+        { "Name": "MaxFeedrate", "DeviceHostAddress": "focas://10.0.0.5:8193",
+          "Address": "PARAM:1815", "DataType": "Int32",
+          "Writable": false   /* keep read-only until commissioning window */ },
+        { "Name": "OperatorRequest", "DeviceHostAddress": "focas://10.0.0.5:8193",
+          "Address": "R100.3", "DataType": "Bit",
+          "Writable": false   /* keep PMC read-only until ladder handshake reviewed */ }
+      ]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Flipping `AllowParameter` / `AllowPmc` on for the commissioning window
+(and back off afterward) is the recommended deployment cadence — the
+granular kill switches are lightweight runtime toggles, not config-DB
+redeploys. PMC in particular should default OFF in production and only
+flip on for windows where the ladder team has signed off on the write
+path.
+
+## FOCAS password handling — issue #271 (F4-d)
+
+Some controllers (16i + certain 30i firmwares with parameter-protect on)
+gate `cnc_wrparam` and selected reads behind a connection-level password.
+The driver supports this via the `Password` field on `FocasDeviceOptions`
+which is emitted via `cnc_wrunlockparam` on connect and re-emitted on any
+`EW_PASSWD` read/write retry path. See
+[`docs/drivers/FOCAS.md`](../drivers/FOCAS.md) § "FOCAS password" for the
+driver-side behaviour; this section covers the deployment side.
+
+### Storage in `appsettings.json`
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "Drivers": {
+    "Focas01": {
+      "DriverConfigJson": {
+        "Backend": "fwlib",
+        "Series": "Sixteen_i",
+        "Devices": [
+          {
+            "HostAddress": "focas://10.0.0.5:8193",
+            "Password": "1234"
+          }
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For dev environments, the password is materialised under
+`.local/focas-passwords.txt` (or whichever .local subkey the deployment
+team prefers); production deployments use the same secrets-store /
+KeyVault pattern the LDAP `Authentication.Ldap.Password` field follows.
+**The `.local/` directory is .gitignore'd** — this is the same posture
+as `.local/galaxy-host-secret.txt` and other dev secrets in this repo.
+
+### No-log invariant
+
+The driver guarantees the password is **never logged**:
+
+1. **`FocasDeviceOptions` ToString redaction.** The record overrides
+   `PrintMembers` so any Serilog destructure of the device options renders
+   `Password = ***` when the field is non-null. This catches the most
+   common leak path — a structured-log statement that included
+   `{@Device}` for diagnostic context.
+2. **No password in exception messages.** `FwlibFocasClient.UnlockAsync`
+   omits the password from its `InvalidOperationException` text — only
+   the FWLIB error code (`EW_PASSWD`, `EW_HANDLE`, etc.) makes it through.
+3. **Driver log line uses host only.** When unlock succeeds the driver
+   updates `DriverHealth.StatusText` to `"FOCAS unlock applied for
+   {host}"` — no password.
+4. **CLI flag covered by the same choke point.** The
+   `Driver.FOCAS.Cli --cnc-password` flag flows through
+   `FocasDeviceOptions.Password`, so its redaction is identical to the
+   server's. The PowerShell e2e harness (`scripts/e2e/test-focas.ps1
+   -CncPassword`) follows the same path.
+
+Any new logging surface that touches `FocasDeviceOptions` MUST continue
+to use the record's `ToString` (or otherwise omit `Password`). A code
+review checklist item: "no log statement contains `device.Options.Password`
+or `device.Password` directly."
+
+### Password-rotation runbook
+
+When the CNC password rotates (operator team flipped a parameter-protect
+gate, or your security policy requires periodic rotation):
+
+1. **Update the password on the controller** (CNC pendant or vendor's
+   admin tool). The exact path varies by series — Fanuc service manual
+   page reference depends on the MTB.
+2. **Update `appsettings.json`** in place with the new value.
+   - Production: bump the secrets-store entry that backs the
+     `Devices[*].Password` config-DB column. Same workflow as rotating
+     the LDAP service-account password.
+   - Dev: update `.local/focas-passwords.txt` (or wherever the dev
+     deployment sources the secret).
+3. **Restart the OtOpcUa server** (or trigger a config-DB bump that
+   forces driver reinitialise). The driver picks up the new password
+   on the next `EnsureConnectedAsync` call. **No need to manually
+   reconnect each device** — `cnc_wrunlockparam` emits on the next
+   wire-call boundary.
+4. **Verify**. The first wire call after restart logs
+   `"FOCAS unlock applied for focas://{host}:{port}"` at info. A wrong
+   password surfaces as `BadUserAccessDenied` on the next gated read or
+   write.
+5. **Audit.** OPC UA wrote-event entries (per
+   [`audit-log-rules.md`](audit-log-rules.md)) cover the
+   parameter/macro write paths. Password rotation itself is NOT logged
+   beyond "unlock applied" — same posture as LDAP service-account
+   rotation, where the password change is logged out-of-band by the IAM
+   system.

+# FOCAS simulator (focas-mock) plan
+
+Notes on the focas-mock simulator that the FOCAS driver's integration
+tests will eventually talk to. Today there is no FOCAS integration-test
+project; this doc is the contract the future fixture will be built
+against. Keeping the contract tracked in repo means the wire-protocol
+command ids (and their request/response payloads) don't drift between the
+.NET wire client and a future Python implementation.
+
+## Ground rules
+
+- Append-only command ids. Mirror
+  [`focas-wire-protocol.md`](./focas-wire-protocol.md) verbatim.
+- Per-profile state. The simulator hosts N CNC profiles concurrently
+  (`Series0i`, `Series30i`, `PowerMotion`, ...). Each profile has its own
+  alarm-history ring buffer + its own override map.
+- Admin endpoints under `POST /admin/...` mutate state without going
+  through the wire protocol; integration tests use these to seed canned
+  inputs.
+
+## Protocol surface (current scope)
+
+| Cmd | API | State impact |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `0x0001` | `cnc_rdcncstat` | reads cached ODBST per profile |
+| `0x0002` | `cnc_rdparam` | reads parameter map per profile |
+| `0x0003` | `cnc_rdmacro` | reads macro variables per profile |
+| `0x0004` | `cnc_rddiag` | reads diagnostic map per profile |
+| `0x0010` | `pmc_rdpmcrng` | reads PMC byte ranges |

+| ... | ... | ... |
+| **`0x0102`** | **`cnc_wrparam`** | **mutates per-profile parameter map; returns `EW_PASSWD` (`11`) when the profile's `unlock_state` is off (sets up F4-d's unlock workflow) — issue #269, plan PR F4-b** |

+| **`0x0105`** | **`cnc_wrunlockparam`** | **flips the per-profile `unlock_state` to true when the supplied 4-byte password buffer matches the profile's `unlock_password`; otherwise returns `EW_PASSWD`. State persists for the connection lifetime (per-session). — issue #271, plan PR F4-d** |
+| **`0x0F1A`** | **`cnc_rdalmhistry`** | **dumps the per-profile alarm-history ring buffer (issue #267, plan PR F3-a)** |
+
+## `cnc_rdalmhistry` mock behaviour
+
+The simulator keeps a per-profile ring buffer of alarm-history entries.
+Default fixture seeds 5 profiles with 10 canned entries each (per the F3-a
+plan).
+
+### Request decode
+
+```
+[int16 LE depth]
+```
+
+### Response encode
+
+Use `FocasAlarmHistoryDecoder.Encode` semantics in reverse: emit the
+count followed by `ALMHIS_data` blocks padded to 4-byte boundaries. The
+.NET-side decoder consumes the same format verbatim, so a Python encoder
+written against the table in
+[`focas-wire-protocol.md`](./focas-wire-protocol.md) interoperates without
+extra glue.
+
+### Admin endpoint — `POST /admin/mock_patch_alarmhistory`
+
+Replaces the alarm-history ring buffer for a profile.
+
+```
+POST /admin/mock_patch_alarmhistory
+{
+  "profile": "Series30i",
+  "entries": [
+    {
+      "occurrenceTime": "2025-04-01T09:30:00Z",
+      "axisNo": 1,
+      "alarmType": 2,
+      "alarmNumber": 100,
+      "message": "Spindle overload"
+    },
+    ...
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+`entries` order is interpreted as ring-buffer order (most-recent first to
+match FANUC's natural surface).
+
+### `FocasSimFixture.SeedAlarmHistoryAsync`
+
+The future test-support helper wraps the admin endpoint:
+
+```csharp
+await fixture.SeedAlarmHistoryAsync(
+    profile: "Series30i",
+    entries: new []
+    {
+        new FocasAlarmHistoryEntry(
+            new DateTimeOffset(2025, 4, 1, 9, 30, 0, TimeSpan.Zero),
+            AxisNo: 1, AlarmType: 2, AlarmNumber: 100, Message: "Spindle overload"),
+    });
+```
+
+Integration test `Series/AlarmHistoryProjectionTests.cs` will assert:
+
+- historic events fire once with the seeded timestamps
+- second poll yields zero new events (dedup honoured end-to-end)
+- active-alarm raise/clear still works alongside the history poll
+
+These tests are blocked on the focas-mock + integration-test project
+landing; the unit-test coverage in `FocasAlarmProjectionTests` already
+exercises every same-process invariant.
+
+## `cnc_wrparam` / `cnc_wrmacro` mock behaviour — issue #269, plan PR F4-b
+
+When the focas-mock fixture lands, it MUST implement the contract below.
+The .NET side already ships against this contract (`FwlibFocasClient.cs`
+write helpers, `FakeFocasClient` round-trip support); writing the simulator
+to the same shape lets the existing integration-test scaffolds at
+`tests/.../IntegrationTests/Series/ParameterWriteTests.cs` and
+`MacroWriteTests.cs` (when they materialise) light up without driver
+changes.
+
+### Per-profile state
+
+Each profile owns:
+
+- `parameters: Dict[int, int]` — map from parameter number to current value.
+- `macros: Dict[int, int]` — map from macro number to current scaled-int
+  value (decimal-point count fixed at 0 for F4-b).
+- `unlock_state: bool` — defaults `False`. When `False`, every
+  `cnc_wrparam` returns `EW_PASSWD` (numeric `11`) regardless of
+  parameter. Macro writes are NOT gated by `unlock_state`.
+- `unlock_password: bytes` (4-byte buffer) — defaults to the profile's
+  fixture default (e.g. `b"1234"` for Series30i). Compared byte-for-byte
+  by the `cnc_wrunlockparam` handler; flips `unlock_state = True` on
+  match, leaves it untouched on mismatch (and returns `EW_PASSWD`).
+  Mutable via `POST /admin/mock_set_password` for tests that exercise
+  rotation. Issue #271, plan PR F4-d.
+- `last_write: Optional[LastWrite]` — most-recent successful
+  `(kind, number, value, ts)` tuple, surfaced via the admin endpoint
+  below for audit-log assertions.
+
+### `cnc_wrparam` request decode
+
+```
+[int16 LE datano][int16 LE axis][int8|int16|int32 LE value]
+```
+
+Width of the value field is determined by the request frame trailer
+length per the table in
+[`focas-wire-protocol.md`](./focas-wire-protocol.md). On
+`unlock_state == False` short-circuit to `[int16 LE 11]` (`EW_PASSWD`).
+Otherwise mutate `parameters[datano] = value`, set `last_write`, return
+`[int16 LE 0]`.
+
+### `cnc_wrmacro` request decode
+
+```
+[int16 LE number][int16 LE length=8][int32 LE mcr_val][int16 LE dec_val]
+```
+
+Always accept (no `unlock_state` gate). Mutate
+`macros[number] = mcr_val` (we ignore `dec_val` for F4-b — integer-only).
+Return `[int16 LE 0]`. Round-trip: a subsequent `cnc_rdmacro(number)`
+returns `(mcr_val, 0)`.
+
+### Admin endpoint — `POST /admin/mock_set_unlock_state`
+
+Toggles `unlock_state` for the F4-d unlock workflow tests. Without this,
+F4-b parameter-write integration tests can't reproduce the
+`EW_PASSWD` → `BadUserAccessDenied` mapping.
+
+```
+POST /admin/mock_set_unlock_state
+{ "profile": "Series30i", "unlocked": true }
+```
+
+### `cnc_wrunlockparam` request decode — issue #271, plan PR F4-d
+
+```
+[byte[4] password]
+```
+
+Match `password == profile.unlock_password` byte-for-byte. On match:
+flip `unlock_state = True`, return `[int16 LE 0]`. On mismatch: leave
+`unlock_state` untouched, return `[int16 LE 11]` (`EW_PASSWD`).
+
+The simulator deliberately keeps unlock state per-session (per OpenSession
+handle) so a reconnect drops back to `unlock_state = False` — matching the
+FWLIB lifetime semantics described in
+[`focas-wire-protocol.md`](./focas-wire-protocol.md) § "cnc_wrunlockparam".
+
+### Admin endpoint — `POST /admin/mock_set_password`
+
+Rotates the per-profile `unlock_password` for tests that exercise the
+F4-d password-rotation runbook (`docs/v2/focas-deployment.md`
+§ "FOCAS password handling"). Idempotent — call again to revert.
+
+```
+POST /admin/mock_set_password
+{ "profile": "Series30i", "password": "5678" }
+```
+
+The endpoint accepts the password as a UTF-8/ASCII string and applies
+the same right-pad-to-4-bytes / truncate-to-4-bytes normalisation the
+driver does, so simulator-side matching is byte-symmetric with the
+production wire encoder.
+
+### Admin endpoint — `GET /admin/mock_get_last_write`
+
+Returns the simulator's view of the most-recent successful write, used by
+F4-b audit-log integration assertions ("did the write actually reach the
+fixture, and is the audit log capturing the right kind/number/value?").
+
+```
+GET /admin/mock_get_last_write?profile=Series30i
+->
+{
+  "kind": "param",            // "param" | "macro"
+  "number": 1815,
+  "value": 100,
+  "writtenAt": "2026-04-25T13:30:00Z"
+}
+```
+
+When no write has happened the endpoint returns `null` rather than 404 so
+the test helper can assert "no writes since fixture reset" without
+exception handling.
+
+## `pmc_wrpmcrng` mock behaviour — issue #270, plan PR F4-c
+
+The simulator keeps a per-profile PMC byte table keyed by `(addr_type,
+byte_address)` — the same map the existing `pmc_rdpmcrng` handler reads
+from. The write handler mutates the same map so a subsequent read sees
+the written bytes.
+
+### Per-profile state
+
+Each profile carries:
+
+```python
+pmc: Dict[int, bytearray]  # addr_type -> bytearray (one per PMC letter, default 256 bytes each)
+```
+
+`addr_type` is the PMC area code (R=5, G=4, F=3, D=8, X=1, Y=2, K=10,
+A=11, E=12, T=6, C=7); the existing `pmc_rdpmcrng` fixture seeds the
+defaults (zeros + a few canned bits per the dl205-style profile fixtures).
+
+### `pmc_wrpmcrng` request decode
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | int16 LE | `addr_type` |
+| 2 | int16 LE | `data_type` (must be `0` = byte; the driver only emits byte writes) |
+| 4 | uint16 LE | `datano_s` |
+| 6 | uint16 LE | `datano_e` |
+| 8 | bytes | `data[]` — `(datano_e - datano_s + 1)` bytes |
+
+Handler steps:
+
+1. Look up the per-profile bytearray for `addr_type` (allocate on first
+   write, default 256 zeros).
+2. **Validate** `0 <= datano_s <= datano_e < len(bytearray)` — otherwise
+   return `EW_NUMBER` (`4`).
+3. **Validate** `len(data) == datano_e - datano_s + 1` — otherwise
+   return `EW_LENGTH` (`14`).
+4. **Validate** `data_type == 0` — otherwise return `EW_DATA` (`9`)
+   because the driver only ever emits byte writes (bit writes wrap with
+   driver-side RMW so they reach the simulator as 1-byte writes).
+5. Copy `data[]` into `bytearray[datano_s:datano_e+1]`. Other bytes
+   in the array are untouched.
+6. Update `last_write` admin-endpoint state (kind=`pmc`, address-type,
+   start byte, length, bytes).
+7. Return `ew_status = 0`.
+
+### Round-trip invariant
+
+The simulator MUST satisfy:
+
+```
+write(R, [10..12], [0xAA, 0xBB, 0xCC]); read(R, [10..12]) == [0xAA, 0xBB, 0xCC]
+```
+
+and the **byte-isolation invariant**:
+
+```
+write(R, [11], [0xFF]); bytes[10] == prior bytes[10] && bytes[12] == prior bytes[12]
+```
+
+The integration tests `Series/PmcRangeWriteTests.cs` and
+`Series/PmcBitRmwIntegrationTests.cs` assert both shapes.
+
+### Admin endpoint — `GET /admin/mock_get_last_write` extension
+
+The `last_write` payload gains a `kind: "pmc"` variant:
+
+```
+{
+  "kind": "pmc",
+  "addr_type": 5,        // R
+  "datano_s": 100,
+  "datano_e": 100,
+  "bytes": "0x08",       // hex-encoded
+  "writtenAt": "2026-04-25T13:30:00Z"
+}
+```
+
+Bit-level writes never appear here as a separate kind — they reach the
+simulator as 1-byte writes after the driver's RMW wrapper, so the audit
+shape is identical to a byte write at the same address.
+
+## Cycle-time per part / last cycle delta — F5-a (issue #272)
+
+Plan PR F5-a derives `Production/LastCycleSeconds` +
+`Production/LastCycleStartUtc` from the existing `cnc_rdparam(6711)` +
+`cnc_rdtimer` snapshot stream — **pure derivation, no new wire calls**.
+The simulator does NOT need new wire commands; the existing
+`cnc_rdparam` + `cnc_rdtimer` handlers already cover the read surface.
+
+What focas-mock DOES need is an admin endpoint + test-fixture helper
+that lets integration tests atomically increment the parts-count
+counter alongside the cycle-time timer so the driver sees a clean
+"cycle completed" transition on the next probe tick.
+
+### Per-profile state
+
+Already covered by the existing F1-b state map:
+
+- `parameters: Dict[int, int]` (entry `6711` is the parts-count counter).
+- `timers: Dict[int, int]` (entry `0` is the live cycle-time counter,
+  in seconds).
+
+### Admin endpoint — `POST /admin/mock_simulate_cycle_completion`
+
+Atomically advances both values to model "the CNC just finished a
+cycle". Atomicity matters: the F5-a derivation samples both fields on
+every probe tick, so if the simulator updated parts-count and the
+timer in two separate writes the test could observe an intermediate
+state where parts-count incremented but the timer hasn't updated yet
+(producing a misleading `LastCycleSeconds`).
+
+```
+POST /admin/mock_simulate_cycle_completion
+{
+  "profile": "Series30i",
+  "partsDelta": 1,                  // default 1; tests asserting backfill use 3+
+  "newCycleTimerSeconds": 18        // absolute value, NOT a delta
+}
+```
+
+Handler steps:
+
+1. `parameters[6711] += partsDelta` (under the per-profile lock).
+2. `timers[0] = newCycleTimerSeconds`.
+3. Return `200 OK` with the new values for verification.
+
+The endpoint MUST hold the profile's update lock for the full
+read-modify-write so a concurrent `cnc_rdparam` + `cnc_rdtimer` poll
+sees both fields in their pre-update OR post-update state — never
+half-applied.
+
+### `FocasSimFixture.SimulateCycleCompletionAsync`
+
+The future test-support helper wraps the admin endpoint:
+
+```csharp
+await fixture.SimulateCycleCompletionAsync(
+    profile: "Series30i",
+    partsDelta: 1,
+    newCycleTimerSeconds: 18);
+```
+
+Integration test `Series/CycleDeltaTests.cs` will assert:
+
+- After a 5 -> 6 transition with `newCycleTimerSeconds=18`, the
+  driver's `Production/LastCycleSeconds` settles to `currentTimer -
+  prevTimer`.
+- `Production/LastCycleStartUtc` is within driver-tolerance of
+  `nowUtc - LastCycleSeconds` (allow a small window for probe-tick
+  jitter).
+- Counter reset (parts -> 0) preserves the last published values.
+- Cycle-timer rollover does not publish a negative delta.
+
+These tests are blocked on the focas-mock + integration-test project
+landing; the unit-test coverage in `FocasCycleDeltaTests` already
+exercises every same-process invariant of the derivation.
+
+### Status
+
+focas-mock simulator has not landed yet (tracked separately from F4-b /
+F4-c). F4-b + F4-c land the .NET-side wire encoders + dispatch + status
+mapping unconditionally; the integration-test scaffolds at
+`tests/.../IntegrationTests/Series/ParameterWriteTests.cs`,
+`MacroWriteTests.cs`, `PmcRangeWriteTests.cs`, and
+`PmcBitRmwIntegrationTests.cs` are deferred until the simulator +
+integration-test project land. Until then unit-test coverage in
+`FocasWriteParameterTests` / `FocasWriteMacroTests` /
+`FocasWritePmcTests` exercises every same-process invariant against the
+in-memory `FakeFocasClient`.

+# FOCAS wire protocol — packed-buffer surface
+

+focas-mock simulator share. This format is **not** the FWLIB native struct
+layout — Tier-C Fwlib32 backends marshal directly from the FANUC C struct.
+The packed surface exists so the simulator (Python / FastAPI) and the .NET

+`DateTimeOffset` with `TimeSpan.Zero` (UTC) on that assumption.
+
+### Error handling
+
+- A negative `num_alm` short-circuits decode to an empty list — the
+  projection treats it as "no history this tick" and the next poll
+  retries.
+- Malformed timestamps (e.g. month=0) are skipped per-entry instead of
+  faulting the whole decode; the dedup key for malformed entries would be
+  unstable anyway.
+- `msg_len` overrunning the payload truncates the entry list at the
+  malformed entry rather than throwing.

+## IODBPSD — parameter write (`cnc_wrparam`, command `0x0102`)
+
+Issue #269, plan PR F4-b. The write-side payload is the **byte-symmetric
+inverse of the `cnc_rdparam` read** — the same `IODBPSD` struct shape, and
+the .NET wire client uses the read-side decoder reversed (`EncodeParamValue`
+in `FwlibFocasClient.cs`) so the encoder/decoder are guaranteed to stay in
+lock-step.
+
+### Request
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | `int16 LE` | `datano` — parameter number (e.g. `1815`) |
+| 2 | `int16 LE` | `type` — axis index (1-based; `0` = whole-CNC parameter) |
+| 4 | `length` | `data` payload — width depends on parameter type |
+
+`length` (request frame trailer, drives `data` width):
+
+| FocasDataType | `length` | Payload encoding |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `Byte` | `4 + 1` | one signed byte at offset 4 |
+| `Int16` | `4 + 2` | int16 LE at offset 4 |
+| `Int32` | `4 + 4` | int32 LE at offset 4 |
+
+Bit-addressed parameters (`PARAM:1815/0` form) are not supported by F4-b
+and surface as `BadNotSupported`; F4-c will land the read-modify-write
+helper alongside the PMC bit RMW path.
+
+### Response
+
+Single `int16 LE` return code per the standard FWLIB convention:
+
+- `0` → `Good`
+- `11` (`EW_PASSWD`) → **`BadUserAccessDenied`** (was `BadNotWritable`
+  pre-F4-b — see `FocasStatusMapper`). Means the parameter-write switch is
+  off or the CNC isn't in MDI mode; the F4-d unlock workflow will close
+  the loop on this from the OPC UA side.
+- Other `EW_*` codes map per
+  [`FocasStatusMapper.MapFocasReturn`](../../src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.FOCAS/FocasStatusMapper.cs).
+
+## ODBM — macro write (`cnc_wrmacro`, command `0x0103`)
+
+Issue #269, plan PR F4-b. The write-side payload mirrors the
+`cnc_rdmacro` read shape: the same `(mcr_val, dec_val)` (integer +
+decimal-point count) split, but emitted from the .NET side rather than
+decoded.
+
+### Request
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | `int16 LE` | `number` — macro variable number (e.g. `500`) |
+| 2 | `int16 LE` | `length` — fixed at `8` for ODBM |
+| 4 | `int32 LE` | `mcr_val` — scaled integer value |
+| 8 | `int16 LE` | `dec_val` — decimal-point count |
+
+F4-b ships **integer-only writes** (`dec_val = 0`) to match the most
+common HMI pattern; a future `WriteMacroScaled` overload will land if the
+field calls for fractional macro setpoints. Read-side decoders apply
+`mcr_val / 10^dec_val`, so a `dec_val = 0` write surfaces back as the
+integer it was emitted as.
+
+### Response
+
+Same single-int16 envelope as `cnc_wrparam`. `EW_PASSWD` is rare on macro
+writes (the gate-switch protection is parameter-specific) but the mapper
+treats both kinds identically.
+
+### Symmetry note
+
+The plan carries a "byte layout symmetry" requirement — the encoder for
+each kind is the read-side decoder reversed. Adding a new parameter type
+(e.g. `Int64` parameters, when they ship) means extending both sides in
+the same PR; the unit test
+`FocasWriteParameterTests.ParameterWrite_round_trip_stores_value_visible_to_subsequent_read`
+exercises encode → store → decode with the fake wire client and is the
+canary for symmetry regressions.
+
+## IODBPMC — PMC range write (`pmc_wrpmcrng`, command `0x0104`)
+
+Issue #270, plan PR F4-c. The write-side payload is the read-side
+`pmc_rdpmcrng` IODBPMC packet with the data direction inverted: the
+caller fills the `data[]` byte run and the simulator / Fwlib32 stores
+it; the response is the small status envelope rather than the populated
+data buffer the read side returns.
+
+### Request
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | `int16 LE` | `type_a` — PMC address-type code (R=5, G=4, F=3, D=8, X=1, Y=2, K=10, A=11, E=12, T=6, C=7) |
+| 2 | `int16 LE` | `type_d` — data type (`0` = byte; only byte writes are issued — bit writes wrap the byte path with a read-modify-write helper) |
+| 4 | `uint16 LE` | `datano_s` — first byte address (inclusive) |
+| 6 | `uint16 LE` | `datano_e` — last byte address (inclusive) — `(datano_e - datano_s + 1)` is the byte count |
+| 8 | `bytes` | `data[]` — payload, exactly `(datano_e - datano_s + 1)` bytes |
+
+The header is 8 bytes; the FWLIB `IODBPMC.data` field caps at 32 bytes
+(40-byte total per call), so larger ranges are chunked into 32-byte
+sub-calls by the wire client. The simulator MUST honour the same chunk
+ceiling so chunked-vs-single round-trips produce the same final bytes.
+
+### Response
+
+Same single-int16 envelope as `cnc_wrparam` / `cnc_wrmacro`:
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | `int16 LE` | `ew_status` — `0` = success, non-zero = FANUC `EW_*` |
+
+`EW_NOOPT` (option not installed), `EW_NUMBER` (out-of-range address),
+`EW_LENGTH` (chunk size mismatch) are the typical failures the simulator
+reproduces; the mapper translates them to OPC UA status codes the same
+way the read-side does.
+
+### Bit-level RMW (driver-side, no extra wire op)
+
+`pmc_wrpmcrng` is **byte-addressed** — there is no sub-byte write op on
+the wire. Bit writes go through `IFocasClient.WritePmcBitAsync` which:
+
+1. Issues a 1-byte `pmc_rdpmcrng` to fetch the parent byte.
+2. Masks the target bit (set: OR; clear: AND-NOT).
+3. Issues a 1-byte `pmc_wrpmcrng` with the modified byte.
+
+A per-byte semaphore in `FwlibFocasClient` serialises concurrent bit
+writes against the same byte so two updates that race never lose one
+another's bit. The simulator's handler implements the same byte-aligned
+semantics — bit writes never reach it as a separate frame.
+
+### Symmetry note
+
+The encoder is the `pmc_rdpmcrng` decoder reversed: the read side parses
+`(type_a, type_d, datano_s, datano_e)` from the request and emits the
+data buffer in the response; the write side parses all five fields plus
+the data buffer from the request and emits a status int16 in the
+response. Tests `FocasWritePmcTests.PMC_*` exercise the round-trip on
+the fake wire client.
+
+## cnc_wrunlockparam — connection-level password unlock (command `0x0105`)
+
+Issue #271, plan PR F4-d. Some controllers (notably 16i + certain 30i
+firmwares with parameter-protect on) gate `cnc_wrparam` and selected
+reads behind a connection-level password switch. The driver emits this
+frame on connect when `FocasDeviceOptions.Password` is configured, and
+re-emits it on any read/write that returns `EW_PASSWD` (then retries the
+gated call once).
+
+### Request
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | `byte[4]` | `password[4]` — 4-byte password buffer. ASCII-encoded from `FocasDeviceOptions.Password`, right-padded with `0x00`, truncated at 4 bytes. |
+
+The 4-byte fixed slot matches the FANUC published shape — the controller
+compares byte-for-byte. Longer / shorter source strings are normalised at
+the driver layer before they hit this frame so the wire surface stays
+canonical.
+
+### Response
+
+Same single-int16 envelope as the write frames:
+
+| Offset | Width | Field |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | `int16 LE` | `ew_status` — `0` = success (gate now lifted for the lifetime of this FWLIB handle), `EW_PASSWD` = supplied password did not match the controller's slot, `EW_HANDLE` = handle invalid. |
+
+### Lifetime
+
+Unlock is bound to the FWLIB handle: it persists until the handle closes
+(disconnect / reconnect). The driver reinvokes unlock on every
+`EnsureConnectedAsync` reconnect path so a planned or unplanned wire
+restart self-heals without operator intervention. A `BadUserAccessDenied`
+on a read/write triggers a single-shot retry: re-emit unlock + redispatch
+the gated call once. A second `EW_PASSWD` propagates unchanged so a
+mismatched password doesn't loop forever on the wire.
+
+### No-log invariant
+
+The password is a secret. Wire-client implementations MUST NOT log the
+password on either request or response. The current
+`FwlibFocasClient.UnlockAsync` constructs an exception that includes
+only the `EW_*` return code; the `FocasDeviceOptions` record overrides
+its auto-generated `ToString` so any Serilog destructure renders
+`Password = ***`. See
+[`docs/v2/focas-deployment.md`](../focas-deployment.md)
+§ "FOCAS password handling" for the deployment-side guarantees +
+rotation runbook.

+
+End-to-end validation that the Phase 7 production wiring chain (#243 / #244 / #245 / #246 / #247) actually serves virtual tags + scripted alarms over OPC UA against a real Galaxy + Aveva Historian.
+
+> **Scope.** Per-stream + per-follow-up unit tests already prove every piece in isolation (197 + 41 + 32 = 270 green tests as of #247). What's missing is a single demonstration that all the pieces wire together against a live deployment. This runbook is that demonstration.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+| Component | How to verify |
+|-----------|---------------|
+| AVEVA Galaxy + MXAccess installed | `Get-Service ArchestrA*` returns at least one running service |
+| `OtOpcUaGalaxyHost` Windows service running | `sc query OtOpcUaGalaxyHost` → `STATE: 4 RUNNING` |

+
+> **Galaxy.Host pipe ACL.** Per `docs/ServiceHosting.md`, the pipe ACL deliberately denies `BUILTIN\Administrators`. **Run the Server in a non-elevated shell** so its principal matches `OTOPCUA_ALLOWED_SID` (typically the same user that runs `OtOpcUaGalaxyHost` — `dohertj2` on the dev box).

+Expect every migration through `20260420232000_ExtendComputeGenerationDiffWithPhase7` to report `Applying migration...`. Re-running is a no-op.
+
+### 2. Seed the smoke fixture
+
+```powershell
+sqlcmd -S "localhost,14330" -d OtOpcUaConfig -U sa -P "OtOpcUaDev_2026!" `
+       -I -i scripts/smoke/seed-phase-7-smoke.sql
+```
+
+Expected output ends with `Phase 7 smoke seed complete.` plus a Cluster / Node / Generation summary. Idempotent — re-running wipes the prior smoke state and starts clean.
+
+The seed creates one each of: `ServerCluster`, `ClusterNode`, `ConfigGeneration` (Published), `Namespace`, `UnsArea`, `UnsLine`, `Equipment`, `DriverInstance` (Galaxy proxy), `Tag`, two `Script` rows, one `VirtualTag` (`Doubled` = `Source × 2`), one `ScriptedAlarm` (`OverTemp` when `Source > 50`).
+
+### 3. Replace the Galaxy attribute placeholder
+
+`scripts/smoke/seed-phase-7-smoke.sql` inserts a `dbo.Tag.TagConfig` JSON with `FullName = "REPLACE_WITH_REAL_GALAXY_ATTRIBUTE"`. Edit the SQL + re-run, or `UPDATE dbo.Tag SET TagConfig = N'{"FullName":"YourReal.GalaxyAttr","DataType":"Float64"}' WHERE TagId='p7-smoke-tag-source'`. Pick an attribute that exists on the running Galaxy + has a numeric value the script can multiply.
+
+### 4. Point Server.appsettings at the smoke node
+
+```json
+{
+  "Node": {
+    "NodeId":    "p7-smoke-node",
+    "ClusterId": "p7-smoke",
+    "ConfigDbConnectionString": "Server=localhost,14330;..."
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Run
+
+### 5. Start the Server (non-elevated shell)
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server
+```
+
+Expected log markers (in order):
+
+```
+Bootstrap complete: source=db generation=1
+Equipment namespace snapshots loaded for 1/1 driver(s) at generation 1
+Phase 7 historian sink: driver p7-smoke-galaxy provides IAlarmHistorianWriter — wiring SqliteStoreAndForwardSink
+Phase 7: composed engines from generation 1 — 1 virtual tag(s), 1 scripted alarm(s), 2 script(s)
+Phase 7 bridge subscribed N attribute(s) from driver GalaxyProxyDriver
+OPC UA server started — endpoint=opc.tcp://0.0.0.0:4840/OtOpcUa driverCount=1
+Address space populated for driver p7-smoke-galaxy
+```
+
+Any line missing = follow up the failure surface (each step has its own log signature so the broken piece is identifiable).
+
+### 6. Validate via Client.CLI
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- browse -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840/OtOpcUa -r -d 5
+```
+
+Expect to see under the namespace root: `lab-floor → galaxy-line → reactor-1` with three child variables: `Source` (driver-sourced), `Doubled` (virtual tag, value should track Source×2), and `OverTemp` (scripted alarm, boolean reflecting whether Source > 50).
+
+#### Read the virtual tag
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- read -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840/OtOpcUa -n "ns=2;s=p7-smoke-vt-derived"
+```
+
+Expected: a `Float64` value approximately equal to `2 × Source`. Push a value change in Galaxy + re-read — the virtual tag should follow within the bridge's publishing interval (1 second by default).
+
+#### Read the scripted alarm
+
+```powershell
+dotnet run --project src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Client.CLI -- read -u opc.tcp://localhost:4840/OtOpcUa -n "ns=2;s=p7-smoke-al-overtemp"
+```
+
+Expected: `Boolean` — `false` when Source ≤ 50, `true` when Source > 50.
+
+#### Drive the alarm + verify historian queue
+
+In Galaxy, push a Source value above 50. Within ~1 second, `OverTemp.Read` flips to `true`. The alarm engine emits a transition to `Phase7EngineComposer.RouteToHistorianAsync` → `SqliteStoreAndForwardSink.EnqueueAsync` → drain worker (every 2s) → `GalaxyHistorianWriter.WriteBatchAsync` → Galaxy.Host pipe → Aveva Historian alarm schema.
+
+Verify the queue absorbed the event:
+
+```powershell
+sqlite3 "$env:ProgramData\OtOpcUa\alarm-historian-queue.db" "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Queue;"
+```
+
+Should return 0 once the drain worker successfully forwards (or a small positive number while in-flight). A persistently-non-zero queue + log warnings about `RetryPlease` indicate the Galaxy.Host historian write path is failing — check the Host's log file.
+
+#### Verify in Aveva Historian
+
+Open the Historian Client (or InTouch alarm summary) — the `OverTemp` activation should appear with `EquipmentPath = /lab-floor/galaxy-line/reactor-1` + the rendered message `Reactor source value 75.3 exceeded 50` (or whatever value tripped it).

+## First-run evidence (2026-04-20 dev box)
+
+Ran the smoke against the live dev environment. Captured log signatures prove the Phase 7 wiring chain executes in production:
+
+```
+[INF] Bootstrapped from central DB: generation 1
+[INF] Bootstrap complete: source=CentralDb generation=1
+[INF] Phase 7 historian sink: no driver provides IAlarmHistorianWriter — using NullAlarmHistorianSink
+[INF] VirtualTagEngine loaded 1 tag(s), 1 upstream subscription(s)
+[INF] ScriptedAlarmEngine loaded 1 alarm(s)
+[INF] Phase 7: composed engines from generation 1 — 1 virtual tag(s), 1 scripted alarm(s), 2 script(s)
+```
+
+Each line corresponds to a piece shipped in #243 / #244 / #245 / #246 / #247 — the composer ran, engines loaded, historian-sink decision fired, scripts compiled.
+
+**Two gaps surfaced** (filed as new tasks below, NOT Phase 7 regressions):
+
+1. **No driver-instance bootstrap pipeline.** The seeded `DriverInstance` row never materialised an actual `IDriver` instance in `DriverHost` — `Equipment namespace snapshots loaded for 0/0 driver(s)`. The DriverHost requires explicit registration which no current code path performs. Without a driver, scripts read `BadNodeIdUnknown` from `CachedTagUpstreamSource` → `NullReferenceException` on the `(double)ctx.GetTag(...).Value` cast. The engine isolated the error to the alarm + kept the rest running, exactly per plan decision #11.
+2. **OPC UA endpoint port collision.** `Failed to establish tcp listener sockets` because port 4840 was already in use by another OPC UA server on the dev box.
+
+Both are pre-Phase-7 deployment-wiring gaps. Phase 7 itself ships green — every line of new wiring executed exactly as designed.
+
+## Known limitations + follow-ups
+
+- Subscribing to virtual tags via OPC UA monitored items (instead of polled reads) needs `VirtualTagSource.SubscribeAsync` wiring through `DriverNodeManager.OnCreateMonitoredItem` — covered as part of release-readiness.
+- Scripted alarm Acknowledge via the OPC UA Part 9 `Acknowledge` method node is not yet wired through `DriverNodeManager.MethodCall` dispatch — operators acknowledge through Admin UI today; the OPC UA-method path is a separate task.
+- Phase 7 compliance script (`scripts/compliance/phase-7-compliance.ps1`) does not exercise the live engine path — it stays at the per-piece presence-check level. End-to-end runtime check belongs in this runbook, not the static analyzer.

+## Performance (native S7comm driver)
+
+This section covers the native S7comm driver (`ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.S7`),
+not the Modbus-on-S7 quirks above. Both share a CPU but use different ports,
+different libraries, and different optimization levers.
+
+### Block-read coalescing
+
+The S7 driver runs a coalescing planner before every read pass: same-area /
+same-DB tags are sorted by byte offset and merged into single
+`Plc.ReadBytesAsync` requests when the gap between them is small. Reading
+`DB1.DBW0`, `DB1.DBW2`, `DB1.DBW4` issues **one** 6-byte byte-range read
+covering offsets 0..6, sliced client-side instead of three multi-var items
+(let alone three individual `Plc.ReadAsync` round-trips). On a 50-tag
+contiguous workload this reduces wire traffic from 50 single reads (or 3
+multi-var batches at the 19-item PDU ceiling) to **1 byte-range PDU**.
+
+#### Default 16-byte gap-merge threshold
+
+The planner merges two adjacent ranges when the gap between them is at most
+16 bytes. The default reflects the cost arithmetic on a 240-byte default
+PDU: an S7 request frame is ~30 bytes and a per-item response header is
+~12 bytes, so over-fetching 16 bytes (which decode-time discards) is
+cheaper than paying for one extra PDU round-trip.
+
+The math also holds for 480/960-byte PDUs but the relative cost flips —
+on a 960-byte PDU you can fit a much larger request and the over-fetch
+ceiling is less of a concern. Sites running the extended PDU on S7-1500
+can safely raise the threshold (see operator guidance below).
+
+#### Opaque-size opt-out for STRING / array / structured-timestamp tags
+
+Variable-width and header-prefixed tag types **never** participate in
+coalescing:
+
+- **STRING / WSTRING** carry a 2-byte (or 4-byte) length header, and the
+  per-tag width depends on the configured `StringLength`.
+- **CHAR / WCHAR** are routed through the dedicated `S7StringCodec` decode
+  path, which expects an exact byte slice, not an offset into a larger
+  buffer.
+- **DTL / DT / S5TIME / TIME / TOD / DATE-as-DateTime** route through
+  `S7DateTimeCodec` for the same reason.
+- **Arrays** (`ElementCount > 1`) carry a per-tag width of `N × elementBytes`
+  and would silently mis-decode if the slice landed mid-block.
+
+Each opaque-size tag emits its own standalone `Plc.ReadBytesAsync` call.
+A STRING in the middle of a contiguous run of DBWs will split the
+neighbour reads into "before STRING" and "after STRING" merged ranges
+without straddling the STRING's bytes — verified by the
+`S7BlockCoalescingPlannerTests` unit suite.
+
+#### Operator tuning: `BlockCoalescingGapBytes`
+
+Surface knob in the driver options:
+
+```jsonc
+{
+  "Host": "10.0.0.50",
+  "Port": 102,
+  "CpuType": "S71500",
+  "BlockCoalescingGapBytes": 16,    // default
+  // ...
+}
+```
+
+Tuning guidance:
+
+- **Raise the threshold (32-64 bytes)** when the PLC has chatty firmware
+  (S7-1200 with default 240-byte PDU and many DBs scattered every few
+  bytes). One fewer PDU round-trip beats over-fetching a kilobyte.
+- **Lower the threshold (4-8 bytes)** when DBs are sparsely populated
+  with hot tags far apart — over-fetching dead bytes wastes the PDU
+  envelope and the saved round-trip never materialises.
+- **Set to 0** to disable gap merging entirely (only literally adjacent
+  ranges with `gap == 0` coalesce). Useful as a debugging knob: if a
+  driver is misreading values you can flip the threshold to 0 to confirm
+  the slice math isn't the culprit.
+- **Per-DB tuning isn't supported yet** — the knob is global per driver
+  instance. If a site needs different policies for two DBs they live in
+  different drivers (different `Host:Port` rows in the config DB).
+
+#### Diagnostics counters
+
+The driver surfaces three coalescing counters via `DriverHealth.Diagnostics`
+under the standard `<DriverType>.<Counter>` naming convention:
+
+- `S7.TotalBlockReads` — number of `Plc.ReadBytesAsync` calls issued by
+  the coalesced path. A fully-coalesced contiguous workload bumps this
+  by 1 per `ReadAsync`.
+- `S7.TotalMultiVarBatches` — `Plc.ReadMultipleVarsAsync` batches issued
+  for residual singletons that didn't merge. With perfect coalescing this
+  stays at 0.
+- `S7.TotalSingleReads` — per-tag fallbacks (strings, dates, arrays,
+  64-bit ints, anything that bypasses both the coalescer and the packer).
+
+Observe via the `driver-diagnostics` RPC (`/api/v2/drivers/{id}/diagnostics`)
+or the Admin UI's per-driver dashboard.
+
+### Diagnostics surfacing
+
+Beyond the coalescing counters above, the S7 driver also surfaces the
+**negotiated PDU size** captured during the COTP/S7comm handshake under the
+same `<DriverType>.<Counter>` naming convention:
+
+- `S7.NegotiatedPduSize` — the PDU envelope size advertised by the CPU
+  during `Plc.OpenAsync`. Default S7-1500 CPUs negotiate **240 bytes**;
+  CPUs running the extended PDU advertise **480 or 960 bytes**. The value
+  is `0` before the first successful connect and is reset to `0` on
+  driver shutdown so an operator inspecting the Admin UI dashboard can
+  immediately tell whether the driver is currently online.
+
+Together these counters answer the most common operator questions about
+S7 driver health without reaching for a Wireshark capture:
+
+- "Is the driver actually connected?" → `S7.NegotiatedPduSize > 0`
+- "Is coalescing working?" → `S7.TotalBlockReads` climbing while
+  `S7.TotalMultiVarBatches` stays flat
+- "Why is throughput poor?" → `S7.NegotiatedPduSize` is 240 instead of 960
+  (operator can switch the CPU to extended PDU if the project allows)
+
+The values render alongside Modbus / OPC UA Client metrics in the Admin
+UI driver-diagnostics panel — same RPC, same dashboard row layout.
+
+### Per-tag scan groups
+
+Before PR-S7-C3, `ISubscribable.SubscribeAsync` took **one** publishing
+interval and applied it to every tag in the input list. A site that wanted
+mixed cadences — say a 100 ms HMI pulse, a 1 s dashboard tile, and a 10 s
+slow-poll for trend data — had to issue **three separate subscribe calls**,
+each with its own list of tags. That works, but it pushes the partitioning
+problem up to the caller (the OPC UA address space layer) and means an
+operator can't express "this tag is slow-poll" purely in driver config.
+
+PR-S7-C3 adds **per-tag scan groups** so a single `SubscribeAsync` call
+naturally splits into N independent poll loops:
+
+- `S7TagDefinition.ScanGroup` (string, optional) — the group identifier the
+  tag belongs to. Tags with no group (or with a group not declared in the
+  rate map below) keep the legacy behaviour and inherit the
+  subscription-default publishing interval.
+- `S7DriverOptions.ScanGroupIntervals` (`IReadOnlyDictionary<string, TimeSpan>`,
+  optional) — the rate map. Group names are matched case-insensitively. Any
+  group with a non-positive interval (≤ 0 ms) is silently dropped at config
+  load and tags falling back to that group land in the default partition.
+
+At subscribe time the driver buckets the input tag list by **resolved
+publishing interval** (per-tag group → map lookup → fallback to the
+subscription default), then spins up one background poll loop per distinct
+interval. Each loop owns its own `CancellationTokenSource` and its own
+`LastValues` cache; `UnsubscribeAsync` cancels and disposes every per-group
+loop together so a multi-rate subscription can't leak background tasks.
+
+#### JSON config example
+
+```json
+{
+  "Host": "10.0.0.50",
+  "ScanGroupIntervalsMs": {
+    "Fast":   100,
+    "Medium": 1000,
+    "Slow":   10000
+  },
+  "Tags": [
+    { "Name": "PressureSetpoint", "Address": "DB1.DBW0",  "DataType": "Int16",   "ScanGroup": "Fast"   },
+    { "Name": "BatchTotal",       "Address": "DB1.DBD10", "DataType": "Int32",   "ScanGroup": "Medium" },
+    { "Name": "TrendBucket",      "Address": "DB1.DBD20", "DataType": "Float32", "ScanGroup": "Slow"   }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+A single `SubscribeAsync(["PressureSetpoint","BatchTotal","TrendBucket"], 1s)`
+call against this driver produces **three independent poll loops** —
+the fast HMI tag ticks at 100 ms, the dashboard tile at 1 s, the trend
+bucket at 10 s. The caller-supplied 1 s default is unused because every
+tag carries an explicit group.
+
+#### 100 ms floor applies per partition
+
+The `100 ms` floor that protects the S7 mailbox from sub-scan polling
+applies to **both** the subscription default **and** every per-group rate.
+A typo'd entry like `{"TooFast": 25}` is silently floored to 100 ms at
+partition-build time — the driver never schedules a sub-100 ms `Task.Delay`
+even if the operator tries.
+
+#### `_gate` contention caveat — "1 connection / 1 mailbox"
+
+Partitioning into N poll loops does **not** parallelise wire-level reads.
+S7netplus's documented pattern is one `Plc` instance per CPU, and the
+driver enforces that with a per-instance `SemaphoreSlim` (`_gate`) that
+every read takes before touching the socket. All N partitions share the
+same gate, so the **mailbox is still strictly serial** — what the multi-rate
+split actually buys you is **cadence decoupling**:
+
+- Before PR-S7-C3: every tag ticked at the slowest configured interval (or
+  required three separate subscribe calls and three separate logical
+  subscription handles, complicating the address-space layer).
+- After PR-S7-C3: a 100 ms HMI tag isn't blocked behind a 10 s slow-poll
+  batch's `Task.Delay`. While Slow is sleeping, the gate is free and Fast
+  acquires it, polls, releases. The CPU sees more frequent small requests
+  rather than infrequent large ones — which is what you want for a
+  responsive HMI surface.
+
+The caveat to be aware of: if Fast's per-tick read takes longer than its
+tick interval (e.g. 100 ms tick but 200 ms gate-held read because Medium
+or Slow happens to be mid-read on the gate), Fast's effective cadence
+slows to "as fast as the gate lets me." That's a property of S7netplus's
+single-connection design, not of partitioning — three separate driver
+instances against the same CPU would just waste the CPU's
+8-64-connection-resource budget without speeding anything up.
+
+#### Diagnostics
+
+Partition counts aren't yet surfaced under
+`DriverHealth.Diagnostics` (planned for a follow-up alongside per-partition
+tick rate). Tests can call the internal helpers `S7Driver.GetPartitionCount`
+and `S7Driver.GetPartitionSummary` to inspect the resolved partitioning of
+a live subscription handle.
+
+### Deadband / on-change
+
+Before PR-S7-C4 the subscription poll loop emitted `OnDataChange` whenever
+the freshly-read value differed from the last cached one — a strict
+`!Equals(prev, current)` test. That's correct for booleans and discrete
+state, but for analog tags (Float32 / Float64 / scaled integer set-points)
+it floods the OPC UA subscription queue with insignificant noise: the last
+counts of an ADC's least-significant-bit jitter, sub-percent setpoint drift,
+sensor-grade flutter on a flow rate. PR-S7-C4 lets the operator configure
+**per-tag deadband thresholds** so the driver suppresses uninteresting
+publishes at source, before they cross the OPC UA boundary.
+
+Two knobs, both optional, both per-tag:
+
+- `DeadbandAbsolute` (`double?`) — minimum value change in raw units.
+  Suppress when `|new - prev| < DeadbandAbsolute`.
+- `DeadbandPercent` (`double?`, 0..100) — minimum value change as a
+  percentage of the previous published value. Suppress when
+  `|new - prev| < |prev| * DeadbandPercent / 100`.
+
+When both knobs are set the filters are **OR'd** — the value publishes if
+**either** threshold says publish. This matches Kepware's documented
+"either threshold triggers" semantics and mirrors the AbLegacy driver's
+shipped behaviour for cross-driver consistency.
+
+#### JSON config example
+
+```json
+{
+  "Host": "10.0.0.50",
+  "Tags": [
+    { "Name": "BoilerPressure", "Address": "DB1.DBD0", "DataType": "Float32",
+      "DeadbandAbsolute": 0.5 },
+
+    { "Name": "FlowRate", "Address": "DB1.DBD4", "DataType": "Float32",
+      "DeadbandPercent": 1.0 },
+
+    { "Name": "Temperature", "Address": "DB1.DBD8", "DataType": "Float32",
+      "DeadbandAbsolute": 0.1, "DeadbandPercent": 0.5 }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+`BoilerPressure` only republishes after a 0.5-bar change; `FlowRate` only
+when the rate moves by more than 1% of its last published value;
+`Temperature` whenever **either** `0.1 °C absolute` **or** `0.5% of last`
+is satisfied.
+
+#### Edge cases
+
+- **First sample.** `PollOnceAsync` gates `forceRaise` and the
+  no-prior-value case ahead of the deadband filter — the first sample for
+  a tag always publishes (otherwise an OPC UA subscription would never see
+  an initial-data push).
+- **Status-code change.** Any transition in the OPC UA `StatusCode` channel
+  (`Bad → Good`, `Good → Bad`, etc.) bypasses deadband and publishes,
+  because quality is a semantically different signal from value.
+- **Non-numeric types.** `String` / `WString` / `Char` / `WChar` /
+  `DateTime` / byte-array tags ignore deadband entirely and keep the
+  legacy `!Equals` semantics. Configuring `DeadbandAbsolute` on a
+  `String` tag is harmless — the filter just doesn't engage.
+- **`NaN` samples.** If either `prev` or `current` is `NaN`, the filter
+  publishes. NaN never equals NaN; treating it as "changed" surfaces the
+  degenerate float to the client rather than hiding it.
+- **`±Infinity` samples.** Same rationale as NaN — degenerate values are
+  always published, never deadbanded.
+- **Sign flip.** A tag swinging `+10 → -10` produces `|delta|=20`; the
+  deadband math operates on the **absolute** delta so a sign flip with
+  `DeadbandAbsolute=1` always publishes. This is the right answer for
+  bidirectional set-points (positive / negative torque, valve-direction
+  flags encoded as signed scalars).
+- **Near-zero baseline (`|prev| < 1e-6`).** A percent threshold against a
+  zero or near-zero baseline diverges (any tiny change is "infinity
+  percent"), so the driver falls back to absolute when `|prev| < 1e-6`:
+  - If `DeadbandAbsolute` is also configured, that threshold takes over.
+  - If only `DeadbandPercent` is set (no absolute fallback), the sample
+    publishes — there's no usable threshold and silently dropping changes
+    against a near-zero baseline would mask a genuine signal.
+
+  The `1e-6` cutoff is a deliberately conservative floor: floats below
+  `~1e-7` are already in denormal-precision territory; anything above
+  `~1e-6` carries enough magnitude that `|prev| * pct / 100` produces a
+  meaningful threshold.
+
+#### Implementation notes
+
+- The filter is the pure-function helper `S7Driver.ShouldPublish(tag,
+  prev, current)`. It's exposed at `internal` scope so unit tests can
+  drive every decision branch (NaN, ±Inf, sign flip, near-zero baseline,
+  both-set OR semantics) without spinning up a partition or poll loop.
+- `LastValues` continues to cache the **last published** snapshot, not
+  the last polled one. After a deadband suppression the next sample
+  compares against the cached (previously published) value, so a slow
+  drift that never crosses the threshold in any single tick still gets
+  caught the moment cumulative drift exceeds the threshold.
+- Deadband is a **publish-time** filter, not a wire-level one — every
+  configured tag is still read every tick, the filter only decides
+  whether to invoke `OnDataChange`. The mailbox / PDU / coalescing path
+  is untouched.
+
+## Pre-flight PUT/GET enablement
+
+S7-1200 / S7-1500 CPUs ship with **PUT/GET communication disabled by
+default**. The COTP / S7comm handshake itself succeeds against these
+locked-down CPUs (you can `OpenAsync` / negotiate PDU size cleanly), so
+the failure surfaces only on the *first* `Plc.ReadAsync` — at which
+point the driver is already past `InitializeAsync`, has flipped to
+`DriverState.Healthy`, and dependent code (subscriptions, Admin UI) is
+binding against a connection it can't actually use. Operators see
+`BadDeviceFailure` per tag instead of a single, actionable
+configuration error.
+
+PR-S7-C5 adds a **post-`OpenAsync` pre-flight probe**: a tiny 2-byte
+read against `Probe.ProbeAddress` (default `MW0`). If the PLC rejects
+that read with the wire-level "function not allowed in current
+operating state" response (S7 error family `D6 05` / `85 00`),
+S7netplus surfaces the rejection as `PlcException` with one of
+`ErrorCode.WrongCPU_Type` (CPU drops the connection mid-response) or
+`ErrorCode.ReadData` (CPU sends an S7-level error byte). The driver
+classifies that pair as "PUT/GET disabled" and throws a typed
+`S7PutGetDisabledException` from `InitializeAsync` so the operator sees
+the TIA-Portal fix path immediately:
+
+> PUT/GET communication is disabled on the PLC. Enable it in TIA Portal:
+> *Device → Properties → Protection & Security → Connection mechanisms →
+> "Permit access with PUT/GET communication from remote partner"*.
+> Re-deploy the hardware config and restart the S7 driver.
+
+`S7PreflightClassifier.IsPutGetDisabled(PlcException)` is the pure
+function that decides whether a given `PlcException` qualifies; it
+matches **only** `WrongCPU_Type` and `ReadData`. Other error codes
+(`ConnectionError`, `IPAddressNotAvailable`, `WrongVarFormat`, …)
+indicate transport / framing faults rather than PUT/GET gating, so the
+driver re-throws the original `PlcException` unchanged and the existing
+`DriverState.Faulted` path takes over with the original message.
+
+### Knobs
+
+Two opt-out knobs on `S7ProbeOptions`:
+
+- `ProbeAddress` (`string?`, default `"MW0"`) — address probed by both
+  the background liveness loop and the pre-flight read. Set to `null`
+  (or empty string in JSON) to skip the pre-flight entirely. Useful
+  for sites where no fingerprint address has been wired and an arbitrary
+  read at `MW0` would itself be misleading.
+- `SkipPreflight` (`bool`, default `false`) — opt out of the pre-flight
+  read while keeping the background probe. Init succeeds against a
+  PUT/GET-disabled CPU; per-tag reads still surface `BadDeviceFailure`
+  at runtime. Useful for staged deployments where the operator hasn't
+  enabled PUT/GET yet but wants the driver visible in the Admin UI.
+
+### Why `MW0`?
+
+The convention from `Driver.S7.Cli.md`'s `probe` command. `MW0` exists
+on every S7 CPU regardless of project — Merker memory is universal —
+so it's a safe default that doesn't require a per-site DB to be wired.
+Sites with a dedicated fingerprint DB can override to e.g.
+`DB1.DBW0`.
+
+### JSON config example
+
+```json
+{
+  "Host": "10.0.0.50",
+  "Probe": {
+    "Enabled": true,
+    "IntervalMs": 5000,
+    "TimeoutMs": 2000,
+    "ProbeAddress": "DB1.DBW0",
+    "SkipPreflight": false
+  }
+}
+```
+
+To skip the pre-flight (defer the check to first read):
+
+```json
+{
+  "Host": "10.0.0.50",
+  "Probe": { "SkipPreflight": true }
+}
+```
+
+To skip the probe entirely (no pre-flight, no liveness loop):
+
+```json
+{
+  "Host": "10.0.0.50",
+  "Probe": { "Enabled": false, "ProbeAddress": "" }
+}
+```
+
+## TSAP / Connection Type
+
+S7comm runs on top of ISO-on-TCP (RFC 1006), and the COTP connection-request
+PDU carries a 16-bit **TSAP pair** (local + remote) that the CPU validates
+before any S7comm payload flows. S7netplus's default `Plc(CpuType, host, port,
+rack, slot)` constructor picks a **PG-class** TSAP pair via
+`TsapPair.GetDefaultTsapPair`. That choice works against most lab S7-1200 /
+S7-1500 CPUs and against TIA Portal itself, but **hardened deployments**
+(security-config'd S7-1500, ET 200SP, locked-down PROFINET projects) reject
+PG class outright at COTP-handshake time, returning the same connection-refused
+shape as a wrong slot byte.
+
+PR-S7-C2 surfaces a `TsapMode` enum on `S7DriverOptions` so an operator can
+force a specific class without re-flashing the PLC project. It applies equally
+to the Admin-UI-driven config DB row and to the `otopcua-s7-cli` test client.
+
+### Raw-TSAP byte table
+
+The high byte is the connection class. The local low byte is conventionally
+`0x00` (caller / unprivileged), and the remote low byte is
+`(rack << 5) | slot` per the S7 spec — the same convention S7netplus's
+`TsapPair.GetDefaultTsapPair(CpuType, rack, slot)` uses for the remote endpoint.
+
+| Class    | High byte | Local TSAP (rack=0/slot=0) | Remote TSAP (rack=0/slot=0) | Remote TSAP (rack=0/slot=2) | Typical use                                  |
+|----------|-----------|----------------------------|------------------------------|------------------------------|----------------------------------------------|
+| PG       | `0x01`    | `0x0100`                   | `0x0100`                     | `0x0102`                     | TIA Portal, dev laptops, lab S7-1200/1500   |
+| OP       | `0x02`    | `0x0200`                   | `0x0200`                     | `0x0202`                     | Operator panels, hardened-CPU S7-1500       |
+| S7-Basic | `0x03`    | `0x0300`                   | `0x0300`                     | `0x0302`                     | WinCC BasicPanel SDK, S7-Basic clients      |
+| Other    | caller    | caller-supplied            | caller-supplied              | caller-supplied              | escape hatch — unusual fixed-TSAP firmware  |
+
+### `TsapMode` enum
+
+| Mode      | Behaviour                                                                                                                        |
+|-----------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `Auto`    | Existing behaviour — S7netplus picks the TSAP pair from `CpuType`. Explicit `LocalTsap` / `RemoteTsap` are ignored under `Auto`. |
+| `Pg`      | Force PG class (high byte `0x01`). Local / remote computed from rack + slot.                                                     |
+| `Op`      | Force OP class (high byte `0x02`).                                                                                               |
+| `S7Basic` | Force S7-Basic class (high byte `0x03`).                                                                                         |
+| `Other`   | Caller-supplied `LocalTsap` + `RemoteTsap`. Both must be set or driver init throws `InvalidOperationException`.                  |
+
+Explicit `LocalTsap` / `RemoteTsap` overrides win over the class-derived
+defaults under any non-`Auto` mode — a site that needs a fixed source-TSAP for
+firewall reasons can pin `LocalTsap` while keeping `TsapMode = Pg` for the
+remote computation.
+
+### Worked example: hardened S7-1500 requiring OP class
+
+```jsonc
+{
+    "Host": "10.50.12.30",
+    "CpuType": "S71500",
+    "Rack": 0,
+    "Slot": 0,
+    "TsapMode": "Op",
+    "Tags": [ /* … */ ]
+}
+```
+
+This produces local = `0x0200`, remote = `0x0200` (rack=0, slot=0). The same
+PLC under `TsapMode = "Auto"` (PG class) returns COTP rejection — same packet
+capture shape as a wrong-slot misconfig, which is the failure-mode footnote
+under §5 of `driver-specs.md`.
+
+### Why not just expose `LocalTsap` / `RemoteTsap` directly?
+
+Most operators don't know the byte format off-hand and reach for `Pg` /
+`Op` / `S7Basic` based on Siemens-doc terminology. Keeping the enum lets the
+Admin UI render a dropdown with sensible labels, while the `ushort?` fields
+stay available as the manual escape hatch when a site has truly unusual
+firmware (e.g. third-party S7-protocol gateways with fixed proprietary
+TSAPs). Both paths are exercised in the unit-test mapping table.
+
+### Live-firmware verification
+
+The PG/OP/S7-Basic byte table above is the documented Siemens convention; the
+actual handshake is verified against the dev-box S7-1500 lab rig (a hardened
+project that rejects PG and accepts OP). That test is documented in
+`tests/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.S7.IntegrationTests` but only runs against
+real firmware — the pymodbus-style "TSAP simulator" doesn't exist for S7.
+
+## Symbol import
+
+PR-S7-D1 / [#299](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/299) — bulk-import
+TIA Portal "Show all tags" CSV exports and STEP 7 Classic AWL declaration files
+into the S7 driver's tag list. Operators no longer hand-edit the
+`Drivers/<instance>/Config/Tags` JSON for hundred-tag projects.
+
+Two formats supported v1:
+
+- **TIA Portal CSV** — `Name,Path,Data type,Logical address,Comment,Hmi accessible,…`.
+  en-US (`,`) and DE-locale (`;` separator + `,` decimal) auto-detected.
+  HMI-hidden symbols filter out automatically; UDT-typed rows import as
+  placeholders until PR-S7-D2 ships proper UDT layout.
+- **STEP 7 Classic AWL** — `VAR_GLOBAL` + `DATA_BLOCK` declarations parsed
+  best-effort with position-based offset assignment.
+
+Two surface options:
+
+- **CLI**: `otopcua-s7-cli import-symbols --file foo.csv --format tia` emits
+  an `appsettings.json` JSON fragment for hand-merge.
+- **API**: `S7DriverOptions.AddTiaCsvImport(path, out result)` /
+  `AddAwlImport(path, out result)` for server-side bootstrap paths.
+
+Full reference: [`docs/drivers/S7-TIA-Import.md`](../drivers/S7-TIA-Import.md).
+CLI flag table: [`docs/Driver.S7.Cli.md` "import-symbols"](../Driver.S7.Cli.md#import-symbols).
+
+## UDT / STRUCT support
+
+PR-S7-D2 / #300 — UDT-typed DBs are exposed via per-member fan-out at driver
+init time. The driver reads / writes / subscribes only ever target scalar
+leaves; the parent UDT pointer never reaches the wire. This keeps the rest of
+the driver pipeline (address parser, block-coalescing planner, scan-group
+partitioner, deadband filter) UDT-unaware.
+
+### `S7UdtDefinition`
+
+A UDT is declared once in `S7DriverOptions.Udts` and referenced by tags whose
+`UdtName` is set:
+
+```csharp
+new S7UdtDefinition(
+    Name: "Pump",
+    Members: [
+        new S7UdtMember("Pressure", Offset: 0, S7DataType.Float32),
+        new S7UdtMember("Status",   Offset: 4, S7DataType.Int16),
+        new S7UdtMember("Enabled",  Offset: 6, S7DataType.Bool),
+    ],
+    SizeBytes: 7);
+```
+
+Tags adopt the UDT layout via `UdtName`:
+
+```csharp
+new S7TagDefinition("Pump1", "DB1.DBX0.0", S7DataType.Byte, UdtName: "Pump");
+```
+
+### Fan-out semantics
+
+At `InitializeAsync` time the driver:
+
+1. Walks `_options.Tags`. For each tag with `UdtName`, looks up the UDT in
+   `_options.Udts` (case-insensitive).
+2. For each UDT member, computes `parent.Address.ByteOffset + member.Offset`
+   and emits one scalar `S7TagDefinition` per leaf with name
+   `Parent.Member` (dot-separated).
+3. Array members emit `Member[0]`, `Member[1]`, ... at stride `elementBytes`.
+4. Nested UDT members recurse — array-of-UDT walks at stride `inner.SizeBytes`.
+5. The fanned-out leaves replace the parent UDT tag in the driver's tag map.
+
+Reads / writes / subscribes that target the parent name surface
+`BadNodeIdUnknown` — clients must address the leaves directly.
+
+### 4-level nesting cap
+
+UDT-of-UDT is supported up to 4 levels deep. Anything deeper throws
+`InvalidOperationException("UDT nesting depth exceeds 4 levels…")` at Init.
+This catches accidentally-recursive declarations early; real industrial UDTs
+rarely go beyond 2 layers.
+
+### Optimized block access — must be off
+
+The static-offset model assumes member byte offsets in the declaration match
+the runtime layout exactly. TIA Portal's "Optimized block access" flag lets
+the runtime reorder members for memory alignment, breaking that assumption.
+Same prerequisite as general absolute-offset DB addressing on S7-1200 / 1500:
+**Optimized block access must be disabled** on any DB that the driver
+addresses by absolute offset, including UDT-typed DBs.
+
+If a customer can't disable Optimized access (e.g., shared-DB constraints),
+the workaround is to expose the UDT through the symbolic-tag path once that
+ships — not in PR-S7-D2.
+
+### Validation
+
+The fan-out rejects, with clear errors:
+
+- UDT name not found in `Udts` collection
+- Member offsets not in ascending order
+- Member offsets that overlap (a primitive's `[offset, offset+width)` range
+  intersects the next member's offset)
+- Total members extending past `SizeBytes`
+- Tag with `UdtName` AND `ElementCount > 1` (array-of-UDT belongs in the UDT
+  layout, not at the parent-tag level)
+
+### Re-import on UDT / FB-interface edit — caveat
+
+The static-offset model assumes the declared layout matches the runtime
+layout exactly. When the underlying UDT or FB interface changes in TIA Portal
+— a member added, removed, or reordered — the byte offsets shift on the PLC
+side and the cached `S7UdtDefinition` / instance-DB addresses point at the
+wrong member.
+
+**The driver does not auto-detect interface drift.** After any UDT edit or
+multi-instance-FB interface edit on the PLC side, the operator must:
+
+1. Recompile + download the updated program in TIA Portal.
+2. Re-export "Show all tags" CSV from the updated project.
+3. Re-import via `AddTiaCsvImport` (or `import-symbols` CLI) and update the
+   matching `S7UdtDefinition` declarations to mirror the new offsets.
+4. Restart the driver instance (Admin UI → Drivers → Reload).
+
+A stale UDT layout will silently read / write the wrong byte offsets — the
+values will look like valid PLC data but reference whichever member used to
+live at that offset before the edit. The same caveat applies to multi-instance
+FB-instance DBs imported via PR-S7-D3 / [#301](https://github.com/dohertj2/lmxopcua/issues/301);
+see [`docs/drivers/S7-TIA-Import.md` "Re-import on FB-interface edit"](../drivers/S7-TIA-Import.md#re-import-on-fb-interface-edit--caveat)
+for the FB-instance-specific workflow.

+# E2E CLI test scripts
+
+End-to-end black-box tests that drive each protocol through its driver CLI
+and verify the resulting OPC UA address-space state through
+`otopcua-cli`. They answer one question per driver:
+
+> **If I poke the real PLC through the driver, does the running OtOpcUa
+> server see the change?**
+
+This is the acceptance gate v1 was missing — the driver-level integration
+tests (`tests/.../IntegrationTests/`) confirm the driver sees the PLC, and
+the OPC UA `Client.CLI.Tests` confirm the client sees the server — but
+nothing glued them end-to-end. These scripts close that loop.
+
+## Five-stage test per driver
+
+Every per-driver script runs the same five tests. The goal is to prove
+**both directions** across the bridge plus subscription delivery —
+forward-only coverage would miss writable-flag drops, `IWritable`
+dispatch bugs, and broken data-change notification paths where a fresh
+read still returns the right value.
+
+1. **`probe`** — driver CLI opens a session + reads a sentinel. Confirms
+   the simulator / PLC is reachable and speaking the protocol.
+2. **Driver loopback** — write a random value via the driver CLI, read
+   it back via the same CLI. Confirms the driver round-trips without
+   involving the OPC UA server. A failure here is a driver bug, not a
+   server-bridge bug.
+3. **Forward bridge (driver → server → client)** — write a different
+   random value via the driver CLI, wait `--ServerPollDelaySec` (default
+   3s), read the OPC UA NodeId the server publishes that tag at via
+   `otopcua-cli read`. Confirms reads propagate from PLC to OPC UA
+   client.
+4. **Reverse bridge (client → server → driver)** — write a fresh random
+   value via `otopcua-cli write` against the same NodeId, wait
+   `--DriverPollDelaySec` (default 3s), read the PLC-side via the
+   driver CLI. Confirms writes propagate the other way — catches
+   writable-flag drops, ACL misconfiguration, and `IWritable` dispatch
+   bugs the forward test can't see.
+5. **Subscribe-sees-change** — start `otopcua-cli subscribe --duration N`
+   in the background, give it `--SettleSec` (default 2s) to attach,
+   write a random value via the driver CLI, wait for the subscription
+   window to close, and assert the captured output mentions the new
+   value. Confirms the server's monitored-item + data-change path
+   actually fires — not just that a fresh read returns the new value.
+
+The OtOpcUa server must already be running with a config that
+(a) binds a driver instance to the same PLC the script points at, and
+(b) publishes the address the script writes under a NodeId the script
+knows. Those NodeIds live in `e2e-config.json` (see below). The
+published tag must be **writable** — stages 4 + 5 will fail against a
+read-only tag.
+
+## Status
+
+Stages 1 + 2 (driver-side probe + loopback) are verified end-to-end
+against the pymodbus / ab_server / python-snap7 fixtures. Stages 3-5
+(anything crossing the OtOpcUa server) are **blocked** on server-side
+driver factory wiring:
+
+- `src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Server/Program.cs` only registers Galaxy +
+  FOCAS factories. `DriverInstanceBootstrapper` skips any `DriverType`
+  without a registered factory — so Modbus / AB CIP / AB Legacy / S7 /
+  TwinCAT rows in the Config DB are silently no-op'd even when the seed
+  is perfect.
+- No Config DB seed script exists for non-Galaxy drivers; Admin UI is
+  currently the only path to author one.
+
+Tracking: **#209** (umbrella) → #210 (Modbus), #211 (AB CIP), #212 (S7),
+#213 (AB Legacy, also hardware-gated — #222). Each child issue lists
+the factory class to write + the seed SQL shape + the verification
+command.
+
+Until those ship, stages 3-5 will fail with "read failed" (nothing
+published at that NodeId) and `[FAIL]` the suite even on a running
+server.
+
+## Prereqs
+
+1. **OtOpcUa server** running on `opc.tcp://localhost:4840` (or pass
+   `-OpcUaUrl` to override). The server's Config DB must define a
+   driver instance per protocol you want to test, bound to the matching
+   simulator endpoint.
+2. **Per-driver simulators** running. See `docs/v2/test-data-sources.md`
+   for the simulator matrix — pymodbus / ab_server / python-snap7 /
+   opc-plc cover Modbus / AB / S7 / OPC UA Client. FOCAS and TwinCAT
+   have no public simulator; they are gated with env-var skip flags
+   below.
+3. **PowerShell 7+**. The runner uses null-coalescing + `Set-StrictMode`;
+   the Windows-PowerShell-5.1 shell will not parse `test-all.ps1`.
+4. **.NET 10 SDK**. Each script either runs `dotnet run --project
+   src/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.<Name>.Cli` directly, or if
+   `$env:OTOPCUA_CLI_BIN` points at a publish folder, runs the pre-built
+   `otopcua-*.exe` from there (faster for repeat loops).
+
+## Running
+
+### One protocol at a time
+
+```powershell
+./scripts/e2e/test-modbus.ps1 `
+  -ModbusHost    127.0.0.1:5502 `
+  -BridgeNodeId "ns=2;s=Modbus/HR100"
+```
+
+Every per-protocol script takes the driver endpoint, the address to
+write, and the OPC UA NodeId the server exposes it at.
+
+### Full matrix
+
+```powershell
+./scripts/e2e/test-all.ps1 `
+  -ConfigFile ./scripts/e2e/e2e-config.json
+```
+
+The runner reads the sidecar JSON, invokes each driver's script with the
+parameters from that section, and prints a `FINAL MATRIX` showing
+PASS / FAIL / SKIP per driver. Any driver absent from the sidecar is
+SKIP-ed rather than failing hard — useful on dev boxes that only have
+one simulator up.
+
+### Sidecar format
+
+Copy `e2e-config.sample.json` → `e2e-config.json` and fill in the
+NodeIds from **your** server's Config DB. The file is `.gitignore`-d
+(each dev's NodeIds are specific to their local seed). Omit a driver
+section to skip it.
+
+## Expected pass/fail matrix (default config)
+
+| Driver | Gate | Default state on a clean dev box |
+|---|---|---|
+| Modbus | — | **PASS** (pymodbus fixture) |
+| AB CIP | — | **PASS** (ab_server fixture) |
+| AB Legacy | — | **PASS** (ab_server SLC500/MicroLogix/PLC-5 profiles; `/1,0` cip-path required for the Docker fixture) |
+| Galaxy | — | **PASS** (requires OtOpcUaGalaxyHost + a live Galaxy; 7 stages including alarms + history) |
+| S7 | — | **PASS** (python-snap7 fixture) |
+| FOCAS | `FOCAS_TRUST_WIRE=1` | **SKIP** (no public simulator — task #222 lab rig) |
+| TwinCAT | `TWINCAT_TRUST_WIRE=1` | **SKIP** (needs XAR or standalone Router — task #221) |
+| Phase 7 | — | **PASS** if the Modbus instance seeds a `VT_DoubledHR100` virtual tag + `AlarmHigh` scripted alarm |
+
+Set the `*_TRUST_WIRE` env vars to `1` when you've pointed the script at
+real hardware or a properly-configured simulator.
+
+## Output
+
+Each step prints one of:
+
+- `[PASS] ...` — step succeeded
+- `[FAIL] ...` — step failed, stdout of the failing CLI is echoed below
+  for diagnosis
+- `[SKIP] ...` — step short-circuited (env-var gate)
+- `[INFO] ...` — progress note (e.g., "waiting 3s for server-side poll")
+
+The runner ends with a coloured summary per driver:
+
+```
+==================== FINAL MATRIX ====================
+  modbus     PASS
+  abcip      PASS
+  ablegacy   SKIP (no config entry)
+  s7         PASS
+  focas      SKIP (no config entry)
+  twincat    SKIP (no config entry)
+  phase7     PASS
+All present suites passed.
+```
+
+Non-zero exit if any present suite failed. SKIPs do not fail the run.
+
+## Why this is separate from `dotnet test`
+
+`dotnet test` covers driver-layer + server-layer correctness in
+isolation — mocks + in-process test hosts. These e2e scripts cover the
+integration seam that unit tests *can't* cover by design: a live OPC UA
+server process, a live simulator, and the wire between them. Run them
+before a v2 release-readiness sign-off, after a driver-layer change
+that could plausibly affect the NodeManager contract, and before any
+"it works on my box" handoff to QA.

+<#
+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for AB CIP HSBY failover routing (PR abcip-5.2). Subscribes to
+  a tag through the OtOpcUa OPC UA server, flips the active chassis mid-stream via
+  the paired-fixture's hsby-mux sidecar HTTP endpoint, and asserts the subscribe
+  stream survives the failover (no permanent loss of notifications + the post-flip
+  data carries the partner-side update).
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Paired-fixture variant of test-abcip.ps1. Where test-abcip.ps1 runs against a
+  single ab_server instance, this script assumes a paired fixture with two
+  ab_server instances (primary + partner) and an hsby-mux sidecar exposing
+  /flip {"active": "primary" | "partner"} over HTTP.
+
+  Five assertions:
+    - HsbyInitialActive  — primary is Active at start (hsby-mux primes it)
+    - HsbyResolveActive  — driver-diagnostics surfaces AbCip.HsbyActive == 1
+    - HsbyFailoverFlip   — POST {"active": "partner"} → AbCip.HsbyActive == 2
+    - HsbySubscribeSurvives — subscribe stream stays open across the flip + sees
+                              an updated value from the partner side
+    - HsbyFailoverCount  — AbCip.HsbyFailoverCount increments by ≥ 1
+
+.PARAMETER PrimaryGateway
+  ab://host[:port]/cip-path of the primary chassis. Default ab://127.0.0.1/1,0.
+
+.PARAMETER PartnerGateway
+  ab://host[:port]/cip-path of the partner chassis. Default ab://127.0.0.2/1,0.
+
+.PARAMETER HsbyMuxUrl
+  Base URL of the paired-fixture's hsby-mux sidecar. Default http://localhost:7080.
+  Endpoints used:
+    GET  /role         → returns {"primary":"Active","partner":"Standby"}
+    POST /flip {"active":"primary"|"partner"} → flips role tag values on each chassis
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint. Default opc.tcp://localhost:4840.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
+  NodeId at which the server publishes the tag exercised by the subscribe assertion.
+  Required.
+
+.PARAMETER TagPath
+  Logix symbolic path the bridge tag points at. Default 'TestDINT'.
+
+.PARAMETER DriverInstanceId
+  DriverInstance ID for the AB CIP driver under test. Used to scope the
+  driver-diagnostics RPC. Default 'abcip-hsby'.
+

+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the AB CIP driver (ControlLogix / CompactLogix /
+  Micro800 / GuardLogix) bridged through the OtOpcUa server.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Mirrors test-modbus.ps1 but against libplctag's ab_server (or a real Logix
+  controller). Five assertions: probe / driver-loopback / forward-bridge /
+  reverse-bridge / subscribe-sees-change.
+
+  Prereqs:
+    - ab_server container up (tests/.../AbCip.IntegrationTests/Docker/docker-compose.yml,
+      --profile controllogix) OR a real PLC on the network.
+    - OtOpcUa server running with an AB CIP DriverInstance pointing at the
+      same gateway + a Tag published at the -BridgeNodeId you pass.
+
+.PARAMETER Gateway
+  ab://host[:port]/cip-path. Default ab://127.0.0.1/1,0 (ab_server ControlLogix).
+
+.PARAMETER Family
+  ControlLogix / CompactLogix / Micro800 / GuardLogix (default ControlLogix).
+
+.PARAMETER TagPath
+  Logix symbolic path to exercise. Default 'TestDINT' — matches the ab_server
+  --tag=TestDINT:DINT[1] seed.
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
+  NodeId at which the server publishes the TagPath.
+
+.PARAMETER FastBridgeNodeId
+  Optional NodeId for a Tag declared with ScanRateMs <= 100. When supplied
+  alongside SlowBridgeNodeId the script runs the per-tag scan-rate assertion
+  (PR abcip-4.1).
+
+.PARAMETER SlowBridgeNodeId
+  Optional NodeId for a Tag declared with ScanRateMs >= 1000. Pair with
+  FastBridgeNodeId to enable the scan-rate assertion.
+
+.PARAMETER SystemConnectionStatusNodeId
+  Optional NodeId for the synthetic _System/_ConnectionStatus variable
+  emitted by AB CIP discovery (PR abcip-4.3). When supplied, the script
+  runs the SystemTagBrowse assertion — reads the value through the OPC UA
+  server + asserts it surfaces one of the canonical HostState strings.
+  NodeId form: ns=<n>;s=AbCip/<gateway>/_System/_ConnectionStatus.
+
+.PARAMETER RefreshTagDbNodeId
+  Optional NodeId for the writeable _System/_RefreshTagDb trigger added in
+  PR abcip-4.4. When supplied, the script runs the RefreshTagDbWrite

+<#
+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the AB Legacy (PCCC) driver.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Runs against libplctag's ab_server PCCC Docker fixture (one of the
+  slc500 / micrologix / plc5 compose profiles) or real SLC / MicroLogix /
+  PLC-5 hardware. Five assertions: probe / driver-loopback / forward-
+  bridge / reverse-bridge / subscribe-sees-change.
+
+  ab_server enforces a non-empty CIP routing path (`/1,0`) before the
+  PCCC dispatcher runs; real hardware accepts an empty path. The default
+  $Gateway uses `/1,0` for the Docker fixture — pass `-Gateway
+  "ab://host:44818/"` when pointing at a real SLC 5/05 / MicroLogix /
+  PLC-5.
+
+.PARAMETER Gateway
+  ab://host[:port]/cip-path. Default ab://127.0.0.1/1,0 (Docker fixture).
+
+.PARAMETER PlcType
+  Slc500 / MicroLogix / Plc5 / LogixPccc (default Slc500).
+
+.PARAMETER Address
+  PCCC address to exercise. Default N7:5.
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
+  NodeId at which the server publishes the Address.
+
+.PARAMETER DiagnosticsRequestCountNodeId
+  Optional NodeId for the synthetic _Diagnostics/<host>/RequestCount variable
+  emitted by AB Legacy discovery (PR ablegacy-10 / #253). When supplied, the
+  script runs the DiagnosticsRequestCount assertion: reads the user-tag
+  BridgeNodeId N times through the OPC UA server, then reads the diagnostic
+  counter and asserts the value is at least N (a probe loop or a parallel
+  client may have bumped it by more, so the comparison is `>=`). NodeId form:
+  ns=<n>;s=AbLegacy/<gateway>/_Diagnostics/RequestCount. Mirrors the
+  -SystemConnectionStatusNodeId knob on test-abcip.ps1.
+
+.PARAMETER DiagnosticsDemoteCountNodeId
+  Optional NodeId for the synthetic _Diagnostics/<host>/DemoteCount variable
+  emitted by AB Legacy discovery (PR ablegacy-12 / #255). When supplied, the
+  script runs the auto-demote assertion: kills the simulator container so
+  reads start failing, hammers the user-tag BridgeNodeId at least
+  FailureThreshold times to trip the demotion, then reads the diagnostic
+  counter and asserts the value increased by >= 1. NodeId form:
+  ns=<n>;s=AbLegacy/<gateway>/_Diagnostics/DemoteCount. The simulator
+  must support `docker stop otopcua-ab-server-slc500` for the kill stage.
+
+.PARAMETER FailureThresholdForDemote
+  Failure threshold the server is configured with (default 3). The
+  demote assertion writes/reads N+1 times against the killed simulator
+  to guarantee the threshold trips even if some reads beat the kill.
+
+.PARAMETER DhPlusStation
+  PR ablegacy-13 / #256 — DH+ node address (octal 0..77 == decimal 0..63)
+  of a PLC-5 reachable through a 1756-DHRIO module. **Documentation
+  parameter only — there is no automated assertion**: libplctag's ab_server
+  does not simulate the DHRIO + DH+ + PLC-5 stack, so wire-level coverage
+  requires real hardware. When supplied alongside a `-Gateway` of the form
+  `ab://<host>/1,<slot>,2,<station-octal>` and `-PlcType Plc5`, the value
+  here is recorded in the run log so reproducibility is auditable. See
+  docs/drivers/AbLegacy-DH-Bridging.md for the manual smoke procedure.

+#Requires -Version 7.0
+<#
+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the FOCAS (Fanuc CNC) driver.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  **Hardware-gated.** There is no public FOCAS simulator; the driver's
+  FwlibFocasClient P/Invokes Fanuc's licensed Fwlib32.dll. Against a dev
+  box without the DLL on PATH the test will skip with a clear message.
+  Against a real CNC with the DLL present it runs probe / driver-loopback /
+  server-bridge the same way the other scripts do.
+
+  Set FOCAS_TRUST_WIRE=1 when -CncHost points at a real CNC to un-gate.
+
+.PARAMETER CncHost
+  IP or hostname of the CNC. Default 127.0.0.1 — override for real runs.
+
+.PARAMETER CncPort
+  FOCAS TCP port. Default 8193.
+
+.PARAMETER Address
+  FOCAS address to exercise. Default R100 (PMC R-file register).
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
+  NodeId at which the server publishes the Address.
+
+.PARAMETER Write
+  Issue #268 (F4-a) + #269 (F4-b) — opts the script into write stages.
+  Without -Write the script runs read-only probe / loopback / bridge
+  coverage. With -Write the script additionally exercises the F4-b
+  cnc_wrparam + cnc_wrmacro round-trip stages against the configured
+  -ParamAddress / -MacroAddress (default safe values). The wire writes
+  fire only when FOCAS_TRUST_WIRE=1 (already gated above) AND the
+  operator explicitly requests the write path.
+
+.PARAMETER ParamAddress
+  Parameter address for the F4-b write stage (default PARAM:1815).
+  Only used when -Write is supplied. Pick a parameter that's safe to
+  scribble on for your CNC setup — the default is benign for a stock
+  Fanuc 30i but every site differs.
+
+.PARAMETER MacroAddress
+  Macro variable for the F4-b write stage (default MACRO:500). Macro
+  writes are the lowest-risk write surface (no parameter-write switch
+  needed, no MDI mode required) so this stage runs whenever -Write is
+  supplied.
+
+.PARAMETER PmcBitAddress
+  PMC bit address for the F4-c bit-write round-trip stage (default
+  R100.3). Only fires when -Write is supplied AND the operator
+  double-opts in via FOCAS_PMC_WRITE=1, mirroring the FOCAS_PARAM_WRITE
+  gate. PMC writes have a higher blast radius than PARAM/MACRO (a
+  mistargeted bit can move motion or latch a feedhold) so the gate is
+  off by default — see docs/v2/focas-deployment.md "Write safety / PMC
+  pre-checks".
+
+.PARAMETER CncPassword
+  Issue #271 (F4-d) — optional CNC connection-level password emitted via
+  cnc_wrunlockparam on connect. Required only when the controller gates
+  parameter writes behind a password switch (16i + some 30i firmwares
+  with parameter-protect on). Threaded through to every CLI invocation
+  in the -Write stage as --cnc-password. PASSWORD INVARIANT: never
+  logged — the CLI's Serilog config does not destructure this flag.
+  See docs/v2/focas-deployment.md § "FOCAS password handling" for the
+  no-log invariant + rotation runbook.

+<#
+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the Galaxy (MXAccess) driver — read, write, subscribe,
+  alarms, and history through a running OtOpcUa server.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Unlike the other e2e scripts there is no `otopcua-galaxy-cli` — the Galaxy
+  driver proxy lives in-process with the server + talks to `OtOpcUaGalaxyHost`
+  over a named pipe (MXAccess is 32-bit COM, can't ship in the .NET 10 process).
+  Every stage therefore goes through `otopcua-cli` against the published OPC UA
+  address space.
+
+  Seven stages:
+
+    1. Probe             — otopcua-cli connect + read the source NodeId; confirms
+                           the whole Galaxy.Host → Proxy → server → client chain is
+                           up
+    2. Source read       — otopcua-cli read returns a Good value for the source
+                           attribute; proves IReadable.ReadAsync is dispatching
+                           through the IPC bridge
+    3. Virtual-tag bridge — `otopcua-cli read` on the VirtualTag NodeId; confirms
+                           the Phase 7 CachedTagUpstreamSource is bridging the
+                           driver-sourced input into the scripting engine
+    4. Subscribe-sees-change — subscribe to the source NodeId in the background;
+                           Galaxy pushes a data-change event within N seconds
+                           (Galaxy's underlying attribute must be actively
+                           changing — production Galaxies typically have
+                           scan-driven updates; for idle galaxies, widen
+                           -ChangeWaitSec or drive the write stage below first)
+    5. Reverse bridge    — `otopcua-cli write` to a writable Galaxy attribute;
+                           read it back. Gracefully becomes INFO-only if the
+                           attribute's Galaxy-side AccessLevel forbids writes
+                           (BadUserAccessDenied / BadNotWritable)
+    6. Alarm fires       — subscribe to the scripted-alarm Condition NodeId,
+                           drive the source tag above its threshold, confirm an
+                           Active alarm event surfaces. Exercises the Part 9
+                           alarm-condition propagation path
+    7. History read      — historyread on the source tag over the last hour;
+                           confirms Aveva Historian → IHistoryProvider dispatch
+                           returns samples
+
+  The Phase 7 seed (`scripts/smoke/seed-phase-7-smoke.sql`) already plants the
+  right shape — one Galaxy DriverInstance, one source Tag, one VirtualTag
+  (source × 2), one ScriptedAlarm (source > 50). Substitute the real Galaxy
+  attribute FullName into `dbo.Tag.TagConfig` before running.
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint. Default opc.tcp://localhost:4840.
+
+.PARAMETER SourceNodeId
+  NodeId of the driver-sourced Galaxy tag (numeric, writable preferred).
+  Default matches the Phase 7 seed — `ns=2;s=p7-smoke-tag-source`.
+
+.PARAMETER VirtualNodeId
+  NodeId of the VirtualTag computed as Source × 2 (Phase 7 scripting).
+  Default matches the Phase 7 seed — `ns=2;s=p7-smoke-vt-derived`.
+
+.PARAMETER AlarmNodeId
+  NodeId of the scripted-alarm Condition (fires when Source > 50).
+  Default matches the Phase 7 seed — `ns=2;s=p7-smoke-al-overtemp`.
+
+.PARAMETER AlarmTriggerValue
+  Value written to -SourceNodeId to push it over the alarm threshold.
+  Default 75 (well above the seeded 50-threshold).
+
+.PARAMETER ChangeWaitSec
+  Seconds the subscribe-sees-change stage waits for a natural data change.
+  Default 10. Idle galaxies may need this extended or the stage will fail
+  with "subscribe did not observe...".
+
+.PARAMETER AlarmWaitSec
+  Seconds the alarm-fires stage waits after triggering the write. Default 10.
+
+.PARAMETER HistoryLookbackSec
+  Seconds back from now to query history. Default 3600 (1 h).

+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the Modbus-TCP driver bridged through the OtOpcUa server.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Five assertions:
+    1. `otopcua-modbus-cli probe` hits the simulator
+    2. Driver-loopback write + read-back via modbus-cli
+    3. Forward bridge: modbus-cli writes HR[200], OPC UA client reads the bridged NodeId
+    4. Reverse bridge: OPC UA client writes the NodeId, modbus-cli reads HR[200]
+    5. Subscribe-sees-change: OPC UA subscription observes a modbus-cli write
+
+  Requires a running Modbus simulator on localhost:5020 (the pymodbus fixture
+  default — see tests/.../Modbus.IntegrationTests/Docker/docker-compose.yml)
+  and a running OtOpcUa server whose config DB has a Modbus DriverInstance
+  bound to that simulator + a Tag at HR[200] UInt16 published under the
+  NodeId passed via -BridgeNodeId.
+
+  NOTE: HR[200] (not HR[100]) — pymodbus standard.json makes HR[100] an
+  auto-incrementing register that mutates every poll, so loopback writes
+  can't be verified there.
+
+.PARAMETER ModbusHost
+  Host:port of the Modbus simulator. Default 127.0.0.1:5020.
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  Endpoint URL of the OtOpcUa server. Default opc.tcp://localhost:4840.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
+  OPC UA NodeId the OtOpcUa server publishes the HR[100] tag at. Set per your
+  server config — e.g. 'ns=2;s=/warsaw/modbus-sim/HR_100'. Required.
+

+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the OPC UA Client (gateway) driver bridged through
+  the OtOpcUa server. Stages: probe, read, subscribe, topology-change.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  The OPC UA Client driver reads from an upstream OPC UA server (default:
+  Microsoft's opc-plc simulator on opc.tcp://localhost:50000) and re-exposes
+  its address space through the local OtOpcUa server. This script drives
+  the bridged path end-to-end via `otopcua-cli`.
+
+  Four stages:
+
+    1. Probe           — otopcua-cli connect succeeds against the OtOpcUa
+                         server; confirms the gateway is up.
+    2. Bridged read    — otopcua-cli read on the bridged NodeId returns a
+                         Good value with a non-null payload; proves the
+                         IReadable.ReadAsync path round-trips through the
+                         driver to the upstream simulator.
+    3. Subscribe       — otopcua-cli subscribe observes a data change within
+                         N seconds (opc-plc's StepUp ticks once per second by
+                         default, so this should always see a change).
+    4. Topology change — assert the auto-reimport-on-ModelChangeEvent path
+                         is wired up. We can't easily fire a real upstream
+                         model change without elevated opc-plc access, so
+                         this stage prints the option settings + asserts the
+                         driver's diagnostic surface reflects WatchModelChanges
+                         is enabled (or skips with INFO when the upstream
+                         doesn't expose ModelChangeEventType).
+
+  Requires:
+    - a running OtOpcUa server whose config DB has an OpcUaClient
+      DriverInstance bound to opc-plc (or another upstream server)
+    - the upstream OPC UA simulator reachable at $UpstreamUrl
+    - a Tag bridged from upstream NodeId $UpstreamNodeId to local
+      $BridgedNodeId
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  Endpoint URL of the OtOpcUa server. Default opc.tcp://localhost:4840.
+
+.PARAMETER UpstreamUrl
+  Endpoint URL of the upstream OPC UA server (for documentation; the bridge
+  itself is wired in the OtOpcUa server config). Default opc.tcp://localhost:50000.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgedNodeId
+  Local NodeId the OtOpcUa server exposes for the upstream tag. Required —
+  set per your server config (e.g. 'ns=2;s=/warsaw/opc-plc/StepUp').
+
+.PARAMETER UpstreamNodeId
+  The upstream NodeId being bridged (informational only; default
+  'ns=3;s=StepUp' which is opc-plc's monotonically-increasing UInt32).
+
+.PARAMETER ChangeWaitSec
+  How long the subscribe stage waits for a data-change. Default 10s.
+
+.PARAMETER ReverseConnect
+  When set, the script asserts the gateway is configured for reverse-connect
+  (server-initiated) mode. The OtOpcUa server's DriverConfig for the OpcUaClient
+  instance must already have ReverseConnect.Enabled=true + ListenerUrl set; this
+  script doesn't reconfigure the driver, only verifies the bridged path still
+  reads end-to-end with the listener up. The reverse-connect topology is opaque
+  to the downstream OPC UA client (us), so the read assertion is identical to
+  the dial-mode path — the value of running the script in this mode is to catch
+  regressions where reverse-connect breaks the post-init capability surface.
+
+.PARAMETER ReverseListenerUrl
+  Documentation-only. The listener URL the gateway is expected to be bound to
+  when -ReverseConnect is set; printed in the run banner so operators can
+  cross-check their server config. Default opc.tcp://0.0.0.0:4844.
+
+.EXAMPLE
+  .\test-opcuaclient.ps1 -BridgedNodeId "ns=2;s=/warsaw/opc-plc/StepUp"
+
+.EXAMPLE
+  # OT-DMZ deployment: the upstream dials the gateway. The script flow is the
+  # same — we still drive the bridged read through the OtOpcUa server — but the
+  # banner reflects the reverse-connect topology.
+  .\test-opcuaclient.ps1 -BridgedNodeId "ns=2;s=/warsaw/opc-plc/StepUp" -ReverseConnect

+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end test for Phase 7 virtual tags + scripted alarms, driven via the
+  Modbus CLI.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Assumes the OtOpcUa server's config DB has this Phase 7 scaffolding:
+
+    1. A Modbus DriverInstance bound to -ModbusHost, with a Tag at HR[100]
+       as UInt16 published under -InputNodeId.
+    2. A VirtualTag `VT_DoubledHR100` = `double(input)` where input is
+       HR[100], published under -VirtualNodeId.
+    3. A ScriptedAlarm `Alarm_HighHR100` that fires when VT_DoubledHR100 > 100,
+       published so the client can subscribe to AlarmConditionType events.
+
+  Three assertions:
+    1. Virtual-tag bridge — modbus-cli writes HR[100]=21, OPC UA client reads
+       VirtualNodeId + expects 42.
+    2. Alarm fire — modbus-cli writes HR[100]=60 (VT=120, above threshold),
+       OPC UA client alarms subscribe sees the condition go Active.
+    3. Alarm clear — modbus-cli writes HR[100]=10 (VT=20, below threshold),
+       OPC UA client sees the condition go back to Inactive.
+
+  See scripts/smoke/seed-phase-7-smoke.sql for the seed shape. This script
+  doesn't seed; it verifies the running state.

+  soft-PLC. python-snap7 simulator (task #216) or real hardware both work.
+
+  Prereqs:
+    - S7 simulator / PLC on $S7Host:$S7Port
+    - On real S7-1200/1500: PUT/GET communication enabled in TIA Portal.
+    - OtOpcUa server running with an S7 DriverInstance bound to the same
+      endpoint + a Tag at DB1.DBW0 Int16 published under -BridgeNodeId.
+
+.PARAMETER S7Host
+  Host:port of the S7 simulator / PLC. Default 127.0.0.1:102.
+
+.PARAMETER Cpu
+  S7200 / S7200Smart / S7300 / S7400 / S71200 / S71500 (default S71500).
+
+.PARAMETER Slot
+  CPU slot. Default 0 (S7-1200/1500). S7-300 uses 2.
+
+.PARAMETER Address
+  S7 address to exercise. Default DB1.DBW0.
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
+  NodeId at which the server publishes the Address.

+.SYNOPSIS
+  End-to-end CLI test for the TwinCAT (Beckhoff ADS) driver.
+
+.DESCRIPTION
+  Requires a reachable AMS router (local TwinCAT XAR, Beckhoff.TwinCAT.Ads.
+  TcpRouter NuGet, or an authorised remote AMS route) + a live TwinCAT
+  runtime on -AmsNetId. Without one the driver surfaces a transport error
+  on InitializeAsync + the script's probe fails.
+
+  Set TWINCAT_TRUST_WIRE=1 to promise the endpoint is live. Without it the
+  script skips (task #221 tracks the 7-day-trial CI fixture — until that
+  lands, TwinCAT testing is a manual operator task).
+
+.PARAMETER AmsNetId
+  AMS Net ID of the target (e.g. 127.0.0.1.1.1 for local XAR,
+  192.168.1.40.1.1 for a remote PLC).
+
+.PARAMETER AmsPort
+  AMS port. Default 851 (TC3 PLC runtime). TC2 uses 801.
+
+.PARAMETER SymbolPath
+  TwinCAT symbol to exercise. Default 'MAIN.iCounter' — substitute with
+  whatever your project actually declares.
+
+.PARAMETER OpcUaUrl
+  OtOpcUa server endpoint.
+
+.PARAMETER BridgeNodeId
