It has no `FixedTree`, `AlarmProjection`, or `HandleRecycle` properties, and `CreateInstance` never sets those three options on `FocasDriverOptions`. As a result, a deployment that follows the documented config - `docs/drivers/FOCAS.md` shows `"FixedTree": { "Enabled": true }`, `"AlarmProjection": { "Enabled": true }`, and `"HandleRecycle": { "Enabled": true }` inside `Config` - is parsed with `PropertyNameCaseInsensitive` and the unknown sections are discarded. The features stay at their hard-coded defaults (all `Enabled = false`). The fixed-node tree never appears, alarm subscriptions throw `NotSupportedException` ("FOCAS alarm projection is disabled"), and handle recycling never runs - despite the operator explicitly opting in. **Recommendation:** Add `FixedTree`, `AlarmProjection`, and `HandleRecycle` DTO classes to `FocasDriverConfigDto`, parse their `TimeSpan`/`bool` fields, and populate the corresponding `FocasDriverOptions` properties in `CreateInstance`. Consider enabling strict JSON handling (`UnmappedMemberHandling.Disallow`) so future unknown config sections fail loudly instead of being dropped. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — added `FixedTreeDto`/`AlarmProjectionDto`/`HandleRecycleDto` to `FocasDriverConfigDto` and `Build*` mappers in `CreateInstance` that populate the matching `FocasDriverOptions` properties (missing section / field keeps its default). ### Driver.FOCAS-002 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | High | | Category | Correctness & logic bugs | | Location | `WireFocasClient.cs:164-179`, `FocasDriver.cs:513`, `FocasDriver.cs:593` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** The fixed-tree bootstrap probes the `ProgramInfo` capability via `SafeTryProbe(() => client.GetProgramInfoAsync(ct))` and treats a non-null result as "supported". But `WireFocasClient.GetProgramInfoAsync` never throws on a FOCAS error return code: `ReadExecutingProgramNameAsync`, `ReadBlockCountAsync`, and `ReadOperationModeCodeAsync` all return `FocasResult` envelopes, and the method substitutes defaults (`string.Empty`, `0`) when `IsOk` is false instead of throwing. It only throws from `RequireConnected()`. Consequently `GetProgramInfoAsync` always returns a non-null `FocasProgramInfo`, so `Capabilities.ProgramInfo` is set `true` even on a CNC series that returns `EW_FUNC`/`EW_NOOPT` for `cnc_exeprgname2`/`cnc_rdopmode`. The driver then emits the `Program/` and `OperationMode/` subtrees and polls them every tick against a controller that does not support them - the exact "nodes that only ever return BadDeviceFailure" outcome the capability suppression was designed to prevent (`docs/drivers/FOCAS.md`, "Per-series node suppression"). **Recommendation:** Make `GetProgramInfoAsync` throw (or return a nullable result) when the underlying `cnc_exeprgname2` / `cnc_rdopmode` calls report a non-zero RC, so `SafeTryProbe` can correctly classify the series. At minimum require the program-name or op-mode read to be `IsOk` before declaring the capability present. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — `WireFocasClient.GetProgramInfoAsync` now throws `InvalidOperationException` when neither the `cnc_exeprgname2` nor the `cnc_rdopmode` read is `IsOk`, so `SafeTryProbe` records `ProgramInfo` as unsupported on series that answer `EW_FUNC`/`EW_NOOPT`. ### Driver.FOCAS-003 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Medium | | Category | Correctness & logic bugs | | Location | `FocasDriver.cs:71-79` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** In `InitializeAsync`, capability-matrix validation only runs when `_devices.TryGetValue(tag.DeviceHostAddress, out var device)` succeeds. A tag whose `DeviceHostAddress` does not match any configured device (a common config typo, e.g. a trailing `:8193` mismatch or a wrong host) silently skips validation and is still added to `_tagsByName`. The mistake is not surfaced at load time - it only manifests at read time as `BadNodeIdUnknown` (`ReadAsync` lines 191-194), defeating the documented goal that "config errors now fail at load instead of per-read" (`docs/v2/focas-version-matrix.md`). **Recommendation:** After parsing the tag address, if `_devices` does not contain `tag.DeviceHostAddress`, throw an `InvalidOperationException` naming the tag and the unresolved device host so the operator fixes the typo at startup. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — `InitializeAsync` now throws `InvalidOperationException` naming the tag and the unresolved device when `_devices` does not contain `tag.DeviceHostAddress`, preventing silent skip-and-defer to per-read `BadNodeIdUnknown`. ### Driver.FOCAS-004 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Medium | | Category | OtOpcUa conventions | | Location | `FocasDriver.cs:374-379`, `WireFocasClient.cs:48-50` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** `DiscoverAsync` emits user tags with `SecurityClass = tag.Writable ? SecurityClassification.Operate : SecurityClassification.ViewOnly`, and `FocasTagDefinition.Writable` defaults to `true` (also defaulted to `true` in the factory - `t.Writable ?? true`). But the production `wire` backend's `WireFocasClient.WriteAsync` unconditionally returns `FocasStatusMapper.BadNotWritable` - the driver is read-only against FOCAS by design (`docs/drivers/FOCAS.md`). The result is that every tag is advertised in the address space as a writable `Operate` node, yet every write attempt fails. This is misleading to OPC UA clients and to the `DriverNodeManager` ACL layer, which will grant write permission on nodes that can never be written. **Recommendation:** Either default `Writable` to `false` for the FOCAS driver, or have `DiscoverAsync` force `SecurityClassification.ViewOnly` when the active backend cannot write. Given the wire backend is read-only and is the only production backend, treating all FOCAS tags as `ViewOnly` is the simplest correct behaviour. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — `DiscoverAsync` now unconditionally emits `SecurityClassification.ViewOnly` for all user-authored tags; the `Writable` config field no longer influences the advertised security class since the wire backend never writes. ### Driver.FOCAS-005 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Medium | | Category | Concurrency & thread safety | | Location | `FocasDriver.cs:28`, `FocasDriver.cs:206-215`, `FocasDriver.cs:261`, `FocasDriver.cs:274` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** `_health` is a plain (non-volatile) field mutated from multiple concurrent contexts - `ReadAsync`, `WriteAsync`, and the per-device `ProbeLoopAsync` can all run on different threads simultaneously (subscriptions go through `PollGroupEngine` timers; probe loops are `Task.Run`). Several updates are read-modify-write - e.g. `new DriverHealth(DriverState.Degraded, _health.LastSuccessfulRead, ...)` reads `_health` then writes a new instance - so a concurrent update can be lost or a stale `LastSuccessfulRead` propagated. While `DriverHealth` is an immutable record and the reference write is atomic, the lack of synchronization means `GetHealth()` can observe torn-in-time state and successful-read timestamps can regress. **Recommendation:** Guard `_health` reads/writes with a lock, or use `Interlocked.Exchange`/`Volatile` around the whole record reference and compute the new value from a single captured snapshot. The `DeviceState`/`HostState` transition already uses `ProbeLock`; apply the same discipline to driver health. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — All `_health` reads use `Volatile.Read(ref _health)` and all writes use `Volatile.Write(ref _health, ...)`, ensuring every thread observes the latest reference and multi-step read-modify-write sequences capture a stable snapshot before computing the new value. ### Driver.FOCAS-006 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Medium | | Category | Error handling & resilience | | Location | `FocasDriver.cs:859-874`, `WireFocasClient.cs:22-31` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** `EnsureConnectedAsync` reuses the cached `IFocasClient` instance across a transient disconnect: it only checks `device.Client is { IsConnected: true }` and otherwise calls `ConnectAsync` again on the same object. For a `WireFocasClient` whose underlying `FocasWireClient` has been disposed (e.g. via a `HandleRecycle` / `DisposeClient` race, or a prior teardown), every subsequent call hits `FocasWireClient.ThrowIfDisposed` and throws `ObjectDisposedException`. In `ReadAsync` that exception is caught only by the generic `catch (Exception ex)` and mapped to a permanent `BadCommunicationError` - the device stays wedged with no recovery path until `ReinitializeAsync` is invoked, because the reconnect logic never discards the disposed client. **Recommendation:** On any connect/use failure, treat a disposed or non-connected client as unrecoverable and recreate it from `_clientFactory`. Simplest: in `EnsureConnectedAsync`, when `device.Client` is non-null but not connected, dispose and null it before creating a fresh instance, rather than retrying `ConnectAsync` on the stale object. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — `EnsureConnectedAsync` now unconditionally disposes and nulls any existing non-connected client before calling `_clientFactory.Create()`, preventing `ObjectDisposedException` loops on a stale `WireFocasClient` after a `HandleRecycle` race or prior teardown. ### Driver.FOCAS-007 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Low | | Category | Error handling & resilience | | Location | `FocasDriver.cs:140-148`, `FocasDriver.cs:478-484`, `FocasDriver.cs:529-533`, `FocasAlarmProjection.cs:61-63` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** Numerous `try { ... } catch {}` blocks swallow every exception with no logging - `ShutdownAsync` (CTS cancel/dispose), `RecycleLoopAsync` (`DisposeClient`), `FixedTreeLoopAsync` transient catches, `ProbeLoopAsync`, and the alarm projection's `sub.Cts.Cancel()`. The driver takes no `ILogger` dependency at all (only `FocasWireClient` optionally accepts one, and the driver never supplies it). A CNC that is silently failing every probe/poll tick produces no diagnostic trail, which conflicts with the project's Serilog logging convention and forces field troubleshooting to rely solely on `GetHealth()`. **Recommendation:** Inject an `ILogger` and log caught exceptions in the poll/probe/recycle loops at `Debug`/`Warning`. Pass a logger into `FocasWireClient` so the per-response `Debug` entries it already emits are actually captured. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-23 — `FocasDriver` now takes an optional `ILogger` (defaulting to `NullLogger`) and every previously-empty `catch { }` in `ShutdownAsync` / `ProbeLoopAsync` / `FixedTreeLoopAsync` / `RecycleLoopAsync` / `ReadActiveAlarmsAcrossDevicesAsync` now logs at `Debug` with the host address + context. `FocasAlarmProjection` also accepts an optional `ILogger` (forwarded by the driver) so its unsubscribe / dispose / per-tick poll swallows log. `WireFocasClientFactory` gained a logger-accepting overload that threads through to `FocasWireClient`, so its per-response `Debug` entries actually reach the host pipeline. ### Driver.FOCAS-008 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Low | | Category | Performance & resource management | | Location | `FocasDriver.cs:201`, `FocasDriver.cs:253` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** `ReadAsync` and `WriteAsync` call `FocasAddress.TryParse(def.Address)` on every operation, even though `InitializeAsync` already parsed and validated every tag address. On a subscription hot path (each poll tick re-enters `ReadAsync`) this re-parses and allocates a `FocasAddress` record per tag per tick unnecessarily. **Recommendation:** Parse each tag address once at `InitializeAsync` and store the parsed `FocasAddress` on `FocasTagDefinition` (or in a side dictionary), so the runtime read/write paths use the cached value. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-23 — `FocasDriver` now holds a `_parsedAddressesByTagName` side dictionary populated at `InitializeAsync`. `ReadAsync` and `WriteAsync` look up the cached `FocasAddress` instance; the defensive fallback `TryParse` only fires if a tag was somehow not seeded. The cache is cleared on `ShutdownAsync`. Regression test `ReadAsync_uses_cached_FocasAddress_when_tag_definition_has_a_malformed_address_after_init` (and the matching `WriteAsync` variant) asserts the same `FocasAddress` instance is reused across calls. ### Driver.FOCAS-009 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Low | | Category | Design-document adherence | | Location | `FocasDriverOptions.cs:110-115`, `FocasDriver.cs:468-486`, `FocasDriverFactoryExtensions.cs:75-80` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** `FocasProbeOptions.Timeout` is parsed by the factory (`FocasProbeDto.TimeoutMs` to `FocasProbeOptions.Timeout`) but never consumed. `ProbeLoopAsync` calls `client.ProbeAsync(ct)` with only the probe-loop cancellation token; no per-probe timeout is applied, and `EnsureConnectedAsync` uses `_options.Timeout` rather than `Probe.Timeout`. A hung CNC socket during a probe blocks until the OS TCP timeout rather than the configured `Probe.Timeout`. **Recommendation:** Apply `Probe.Timeout` as a linked `CancellationTokenSource` timeout around the `ProbeAsync` call, or remove the dead `Timeout` field from `FocasProbeOptions` / `FocasProbeDto` if it is genuinely not intended. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-23 — `FocasDriver.ProbeLoopAsync` now wraps `client.ProbeAsync` in a linked `CancellationTokenSource` that fires after `Probe.Timeout` (skipped when the timeout is `<= TimeSpan.Zero`). On timeout the loop logs the cancellation at Debug and surfaces it as a failed probe, so a hung CNC socket transitions the host to `Stopped` at the configured budget instead of blocking on the OS TCP timeout. Regression test `ProbeLoop_cancels_a_slow_ProbeAsync_at_Probe_Timeout` asserts the cancellation reaches the fake `ProbeAsync` within the configured 100 ms. ### Driver.FOCAS-010 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Low | | Category | Code organization & conventions | | Location | `IFocasClient.cs:210-227` (`FocasOpMode`), `FocasConstants.cs:42-78` (`FocasOperationMode`) | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** There are two parallel operation-mode-to-text mappings with divergent labels. `FocasOpMode.ToText` (used by the driver fixed-tree `OperationMode/ModeText` node) yields `"TJOG"`, `"TEACH_IN_HANDLE"`; `FocasOperationModeExtensions.ToText` (in the Wire layer) yields `"T-JOG"`, `"TEACH-IN-HANDLE"`. They also use different fallback formats (`Mode{mode}` vs the bare number). The same concept is encoded twice with inconsistent results depending on which path renders it. **Recommendation:** Consolidate to a single op-mode enum + `ToText` helper shared by both the wire layer and the driver projection, with one canonical label set. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-23 — `FocasOperationModeExtensions.ToText` now delegates to `FocasOpMode.ToText((short)mode)`, so the wire layer and the driver fixed-tree projection render identical labels. `FocasOpMode` keeps its existing labels (`TJOG`, `TEACH_IN_HANDLE`, `Mode{n}` fallback), which are now the single canonical surface. Regression theory `OpMode_ToText_yields_the_same_label_in_both_namespaces` cross-checks every defined code; `OpMode_ToText_fallback_label_is_consistent` covers the unknown-code path. ### Driver.FOCAS-011 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Low | | Category | Code organization & conventions | | Location | `IFocasClient.cs:275-287` (`FocasAlarmType`), `FocasAlarmProjection.cs:149-175` | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** `FocasAlarmType` declares its constants as `public const int`, but the only consumers - `FocasAlarmProjection.MapAlarmType(short type)` and `MapSeverity(short type)` - take a `short` and `switch` against these `int` constants. It compiles only because the values (0..13) fit in `short` range as constant expressions. The type mismatch is a latent maintenance hazard: adding a constant above `short.MaxValue`, or changing the projection signatures, would break the switch in non-obvious ways. `FocasAlarmType.All` is `-1` and is also passed where a `short` is expected by `ReadAlarmsAsync`. **Recommendation:** Declare the `FocasAlarmType` constants as `short` (or make it an `enum : short`) so the type matches the wire field width and the projection signatures. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-23 — every `FocasAlarmType` constant (`All`, `Parameter`, `PulseCode`, `Overtravel`, `Overheat`, `Servo`, `DataIo`, `MemoryCheck`, `MacroAlarm`) is now typed `short`, matching the wire field width on `cnc_rdalmmsg2` and the `switch (short type)` arms in `FocasAlarmProjection.MapAlarmType` / `MapSeverity`. Regression test `FocasAlarmType_constants_are_typed_short` uses reflection to guarantee the type is preserved against future drift. ### Driver.FOCAS-012 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Medium | | Category | Testing coverage | | Location | `FocasDriverFactoryExtensions.cs`, `FocasDriver.cs:495-629` (`FixedTreeLoopAsync`) | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** The unit test project does not exercise `FocasDriverFactoryExtensions.CreateInstance` with `FixedTree` / `AlarmProjection` / `HandleRecycle` config sections - which is why the config-mapping gap in Driver.FOCAS-001 was not caught. There is also no test that drives the fixed-tree bootstrap / capability-probe path (`FixedTreeLoopAsync`), so the false-positive `ProgramInfo` capability in Driver.FOCAS-002 is untested, and the `EnsureConnectedAsync` reconnect-after-disconnect path (Driver.FOCAS-006) has no coverage. **Recommendation:** Add factory tests that round-trip a full JSON config including the three opt-in sections and assert the options reach the driver; add a `FakeFocasClient`-driven test for fixed-tree bootstrap capability classification (including the unsupported-program-info case); add a reconnect test that disposes the fake client mid-session and asserts recovery. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-05-22 — Added `FocasDriverMediumFindingsTests.cs` covering: unknown-DeviceHostAddress init throw (003), ViewOnly enforcement for all tags (004), Volatile `_health` under concurrent reads (005), reconnect-after-external-dispose recovery (006), and a factory full-round-trip test for all three opt-in config sections (012). ## Re-review 2026-06-19 (commit 04e0877b) Re-review of the FOCAS driver at HEAD (`04e0877b`, which descends from `7286d320`). Since the prior review at `76d35d1` the driver gained ~1,200 lines, most notably the pure-managed FOCAS/2 Ethernet **wire backend** (`Wire/FocasWireClient.cs`, `Wire/FocasWireProtocol.cs`, `Wire/WireFocasClient.cs`, `Wire/FocasConstants.cs`) and the `cnc_getfigure` per-axis position auto-scale path (`ReadPositionFiguresAsync` + `AxisFactor`). NB: there is **no P/Invoke** in the runtime read path — the wire backend speaks the Fanuc binary protocol directly over TCP. The only P/Invoke is the `cnc_allclibhndl3` / `cnc_freelibhndl` Test-Connect handshake in `FocasDriverProbe.cs` (marshalling reviewed below). All 12 prior findings remain Resolved. Two new findings recorded below. | # | Category | Result | |---|---|---| | 1 | Correctness & logic bugs | Driver.FOCAS-014 (deferred) — otherwise no issues found | | 2 | OtOpcUa conventions | No issues found | | 3 | Concurrency & thread safety | No new issues found (see note) | | 4 | Error handling & resilience | No issues found | | 5 | Security | No issues found | | 6 | Performance & resource management | No issues found | | 7 | Design-document adherence | No issues found | | 8 | Code organization & conventions | No issues found | | 9 | Testing coverage | Driver.FOCAS-013 | | 10 | Documentation & comments | No issues found | **Interop / marshalling note (P/Invoke probe).** `FocasDriverProbe.NativeFwlib` declares `cnc_allclibhndl3([MarshalAs(LPStr)] string ipaddr, ushort port, int timeout, out ushort handle)` with `CallingConvention.Cdecl` + `CharSet.Ansi`. This matches the published FWLIB signature (`short cnc_allclibhndl3(const char*, unsigned short, long, unsigned short*)`). The `out ushort handle` is freed best-effort in a `finally` even on a timeout race, and the whole call is wrapped so a `DllNotFoundException` / load failure degrades to TCP-only — sound. The one residual subtlety (FWLIB `long` is 32-bit on Win32 → `int` is correct on the typical x86 worker; on an LP64 Linux `libfwlib32.so` the C `long` is 64-bit and `int` would mis-marshal) is **bench-gated** (no FWLIB on this dev/CI host) and is recorded as context only, not a separate finding, because the project ships no Linux-FWLIB path today. **Concurrency note (not a new finding).** `FocasDriver.DeviceState.Client` is a plain auto-property read/written without a lock from `EnsureConnectedAsync` (Read/Write/probe/ fixed-tree threads) and `RecycleLoopAsync`/`DisposeClient`. A `HandleRecycle`-enabled config can therefore race a dispose against an in-flight read's captured client reference. This is the same lifecycle class as the already-Resolved Driver.FOCAS-006; `HandleRecycle` is disabled by default and the wire client's own `_lifetimeGate`/`_requestGate` plus the "reconnect on next call" recovery make the window self-correcting. Left as-is (no new finding) — hardening it to a per-device lock is a larger change with no offline-observable defect. #### Driver.FOCAS-013 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Medium | | Category | Testing coverage | | Location | `Wire/FocasWireProtocol.cs`, `Wire/FocasWireClient.cs` (`ReadPositionFiguresAsync`, `ParseAlarms`, name/sysinfo decode) | | Status | Resolved | **Description:** The entire managed wire-protocol decode layer — the byte-offset-fragile code that is this driver's analogue of P/Invoke struct marshalling — has **zero** unit tests. No test in `Driver.FOCAS.Tests` references `FocasWireProtocol`, `FocasWireClient`, `ParseResponseBlocks`, `BuildPdu`/`BuildRequestBody`, `ReadAscii`/`ReadNameRecord`, or the new `cnc_getfigure` figure decode (`ReadPositionFiguresAsync`, added since the prior review). Every existing test drives the `IFocasClient` seam through `FakeFocasClient`, which bypasses all wire framing and big-endian decode. A regression in a block-envelope offset, a PDU length field, the ASCII NUL/space trimming, or the figure `short` stride would not be caught by any test — exactly the corruption class the review brief calls out for marshalling code. **Recommendation:** Add offline (no-socket) unit tests for the public/internal static decode primitives: `BuildPdu` header layout + `ReadPduAsync` round-trip; `BuildRequestBody` block count/stride; `ParseResponseBlocks` (command/RC/payload extraction, truncation guards); `ReadAscii` (NUL stop + trailing-space/NUL trim) and `ReadNameRecord`; and a `ResponseBlock`-shaped payload that exercises the `cnc_getfigure` figure `short` stride. **Resolution:** Resolved 2026-06-19 — Added `FocasWireProtocolTests.cs` (15 tests) covering `BuildPdu` header layout + magic/version/length, the `BuildPdu`→`ReadPdu` round-trip, `BuildRequestBody` block framing, `ParseResponseBlocks` (multi-block command/RC/payload extraction + the truncated-length and bad-block-length guards), `ReadAscii` NUL-stop and trailing space/NUL trimming, `ReadNameRecord` 2-byte extraction, and a response-block payload decoded into the per-axis `short` figure sequence that the `cnc_getfigure` path relies on. #### Driver.FOCAS-014 | Field | Value | |---|---| | Severity | Low | | Category | Correctness & logic bugs | | Location | `Wire/WireFocasClient.cs:318-325` (`ReadSpindleMetricAsync` trailing-zero truncation) | | Status | Deferred | **Description:** `WireFocasClient.ReadSpindleMetricAsync` (the shared decode for `GetSpindleLoadsAsync` / `GetSpindleMaxRpmsAsync`) stops accumulating at the first zero value after a non-zero one: `if (m.Value == 0 && list.Count > 0) break;`. The intent (per the inline comment) is to drop Fanuc's trailing zero-padding of unused spindle slots. But a spindle that is legitimately at **0% load** (stopped) sitting *between* two running spindles truncates the list at that point, dropping every subsequent spindle. Because the consumer in `FocasDriver.FixedTreeLoopAsync` index-aligns the returned list to the spindle order (`state.LastSpindleLoads[i] = loads[i]`) and the read path looks up `Load` by that index, a dropped middle element **misaligns all later spindles' Load values**. The truncation is correct only if the CNC always returns a contiguous run of active spindles followed by zero padding — which holds for single-spindle and trailing-stopped layouts but not for a stopped middle spindle. **Recommendation:** Distinguish "trailing padding" from "a real zero in the middle". Either read the actual spindle count from `cnc_rdspdlname` / sysinfo and decode exactly that many fixed-width slots (no zero-based truncation), or keep zeros and trim only a trailing run of zeros after decoding the full payload. **Resolution:** Deferred — the correct slot-count/padding semantics of `cnc_rdspload` / `cnc_rdspmaxrpm` depend on the real Fanuc wire response shape, which is bench-CNC-gated (this managed backend's binary shapes are validated only against the in-tree `focas_mock` sim, per the `Wire/FocasWireClient.cs` remarks). Fixing the truncation heuristic without a real CNC's padding behaviour risks substituting one wrong assumption for another. Waiting on a bench-CNC verification pass (the same gate that covers the `cnc_getfigure` binary shape).
