+description: Audit REA CI and test suites for correctness, fixture drift, false passes, and measured performance; use for suite or workflow investigations and efficiency changes, rather than ordinary feature testing or a single test failure.
+---
+
+# REA CI and tests audit
+
+Establish which checks still catch real regressions and which costs can be
+removed without losing that protection. The outcome may be a verified fix,
+an evidence-backed recommendation, or an explicit decision to stop.
+
+Follow the checkout's `AGENTS.md`, [testing guide](../../../docs/testing.md),
+and [contribution rules](../../../CONTRIBUTING.md). Use their current commands
+and pinned toolchain, rather than commands remembered from an earlier audit.
+Preserve the requested scope: investigation alone does not authorize edits;
+this skill does not grant permission to publish issues, push, or merge. Existing
+user authorization still applies. Keep audit notes and raw results outside the
+tracked tree, normally in a task-specific `/tmp` directory.
+
+## Establish the executed baseline
+
+Fetch when the user asks for latest main. Pin the baseline SHA and inspected
+workflow revision; use an isolated worktree when changing or comparing code.
+Do not modify another task's checkout. Record dirty changes and the exact
+command, toolchain, host, selected tests, instrumentation, and prerequisites.
+An old run is evidence for its executed revision, even if main advances.
+
+Trace workflow triggers, changed-path selection, job dependencies, reusable
+actions, package scripts, test discovery, artifact producers, and report gates
+through to the commands that actually execute. Include scripts, generated data,
+runtime registration, and subprocess boundaries missing from import graphs.
+Check positive and negative selection paths: required files must be discovered
+once per intended test configuration; deliberate platform/configuration repeats
+are separate coverage. A missing explicit test or missing required report must
+not turn green. Optional lanes may skip; preserve their stated prerequisites.
+
+Use existing timing and failure artifacts to select suspicious families. Run
+relevant checks to establish a baseline; reserve a full local suite for broad
+CI diagnosis or uncertainty that focused checks cannot resolve. Do not rebuild
+or rerun an unchanged complete suite after every documentation edit.
+
+## Prove the failure or protection
+
+For each candidate, state the expected observable behavior and its owner,
+then construct the smallest reproduction against production behavior. Follow
+the producer and affected consumers before deciding where to fix it.
+
+- For drift, compare fixtures with current admission requirements, protocol
+  replies, named contracts, tool versions, and actual public entrypoints. A
+  plausible-looking mock can fail before the behavior its test claims to cover.
+  Search the whole affected fixture family, including other version strings.
+  Preserve intentionally malformed fixtures and test their intended rejection.
+- For a suspicious green test, perturb the relevant behavior in an isolated
+  copy or inject a controlled failure. Verify that the existing assertion or
+  gate detects it. A test may merely repeat its mock, import abandoned code,
+  or hide a subprocess/checker failure. Restore mutations after the experiment.
+- For shared setup or pruning, map distinct assertions to their retained
+  scenarios. Preserve malformed inputs, cancellation, cleanup failure,
+  permissions, capacity, identity, and meaningful concurrency interactions.
+  A faster run that skips a case or weakens its oracle is not an improvement.
+- For provider coverage, separate fake-producer, boundary, and actual-engine
+  evidence. Inspect named skips and prerequisites; fixtures do not establish
+  real Ghidra, LLDB, browser, or other provider behavior.
+
+Classify findings as reproduced defects, supported costs, hypotheses, or
+unavailable evidence. Record the baseline command, observed output/exit status,
+expected result, affected scope, and competing explanation. A failure on main
+may be pre-existing; that does not by itself make it irrelevant to a CI audit.
+Attribute PR failures using the executed revision and a clean baseline, not
+just their resemblance to a previous failure. Retry only to test a specific
+transient explanation; retain the original failure and stop when repetition
+adds no evidence. A passing retry does not establish a root cause or a fix.
+
+## Assess efficiency without losing the gate
+
+Read [measurement and CI checks](references/measurement-and-ci.md) when
+investigating slowness, caching, runner waits, shared artifacts, or log noise.
+Compare equivalent completed work before claiming a speedup. Distinguish
+setup/build time, test execution, coverage instrumentation, dependency waits,
+and runner scheduling; state which costs remain unmeasured.
+
+Prefer removing proven duplicate preparation, reusing immutable setup, and
+reducing repeated subprocess work before shrinking correctness coverage.
+Preserve independent sessions where lifecycle or concurrency is the oracle.
+Keep live tests fresh; a cached previous pass cannot validate current host,
+installed provider contents, permissions, or external state.
+
+## Fix, verify, and hand off within scope
+
+If implementation is authorized, make the smallest structural change at the
+owning boundary and add a regression that fails on the baseline for the right
+reason. Retest affected consumers and meaningful negative paths; verify cache
+invalidation or discovery when those mechanisms change. Read the installed
+Turbo documentation before changing its configuration or commands.
+
+Run the repository's applicable checks and inspect complete current-head CI
+results before an authorized merge. Preserve required coverage and discovery
+gates. Do not suppress a failure, add blanket retries, raise timeouts, or delete
+distinct assertions solely to make CI green. Changes to these controls need
+their own demonstrated reason and retained failure detection.
+
+Report each confirmed issue with exact revision, reproduction, consequence,
+proposed correction, and validation limits. Report performance with workload
+and measurements, not just a percentage. Use English issue/PR records when
+requested; follow the user's assignment, commit identity, review, and merge
+preferences without assuming them for other users. Open ready-for-review PRs
+only when that lifecycle is authorized. Resolve necessary review findings and
+check final main against the tested tree after merging.
+
+Stop when the authorized work is verified, remaining benefits are unproven,
+or further changes would trade correctness for speculative speed. List genuine
+uncertainties without turning them into additional optimization rounds.

+# Measurement and CI checks
+
+## Equivalent completed work
+
+Record the source/workflow SHA, command, test identities and counts, skips,
+assertions or output contract, exit status, coverage scope and thresholds,
+toolchain/provider versions, host resources, and prepared artifacts. Inspect
+both the child result and its report: a profiling wrapper may exit successfully
+after the measured command failed. Focused tests can pass while global coverage
+thresholds fail; describe both rather than calling the command green.
+
+Measure wall time, user/system CPU, and peak process-family memory for relevant
+completed tasks. Parent-only RSS misses workers and their children. On Linux,
+summed RSS can double-count shared pages; report RSS/PSS semantics, sampling
+interval, missing samples, and observed cleanup limits. Use equivalent host
+tools elsewhere. State unknown costs, including agent tokens; fewer log bytes
+alone prove neither fewer tokens nor faster tests.
+
+Separate cold execution, warm build/file caches, and warm runtime caches.
+Use repeated or alternating runs when variance affects the decision, with
+enough observations to distinguish the proposed benefit from noise. Keep
+workload, instrumentation, and host conditions comparable; record interference.
+A run with fewer tests, early rejection, lost coverage, or a different runner
+does not prove suite acceleration. CI-wide claims need end-to-end measurements,
+not an extrapolation from one improved family.
+
+## Workflow, caches, and shared artifacts
+
+Trace each reused result from producer to consumers and identify its lifetime.
+Check key/input coverage against the actual file inventory and result-affecting
+configuration, environment, generated data, tool versions, and host state.
+Exercise an affected input change to prove invalidation; exercise an irrelevant
+change to support reuse where useful. Cache deterministic preparation and
+static analysis only when their inputs fully describe the result.
+
+Verify downloaded artifacts match the expected revision, platform, runtime,
+and schema. Check restore misses, failed/partial producers, stale reports,
+removed output files, and consumers after producer failures. Shared writers
+need output ownership or locks; tests need isolated state, not an unnecessary
+global lock. Worker counts do not bound children spawned within each test.
+Preserve intentionally concurrent scenarios while bounding unrelated batches.
+
+Check matrix expansion and all job pages before saying CI passed. Inspect
+required gates after failed, cancelled, and skipped dependencies. `always()`
+alone does not preserve failures; inspect the aggregation logic. Test/report
+uploads should retain available diagnostics after failure, while absent or
+malformed required results must fail closed. Do not demand an optional report
+from a lane intentionally excluded by the selector.
+
+## Runner waits and console noise
+
+Use per-job and per-step timestamps where available. Workflow creation to job
+start includes dependencies and other delays; it is not necessarily runner
+queue time. Identify when the job became eligible before attributing waits to
+runner capacity. If eligibility/queue timestamps are unavailable, report the
+combined delay and unknown split. Compare equivalent lanes and runner types
+across enough runs; a single busy runner is not a workflow regression.
+
+For console reductions, retain checker exit codes, actionable errors, useful
+summary counts, and complete machine-readable artifacts. Verify authored code
+remains in the actual checker inventory when excluding generated outputs.
+Introduce an authored error as a control; it must still fail. An ignore pattern
+can hide real source as well as noise. Show that cached reports are restored,
+stale successful reports cannot mask current failures, and report parse errors
+remain failures. Measure readability or byte reduction separately from runtime.

+### Windows source checkouts

+The published npm package includes the Windows x64 native addon and its
+manifest. A source checkout does not: `native/windows/build/` is ignored by
+Git, and neither `npm ci` nor `npm run build:cached` (or `npm run build`)
+produces `rea-windows-x64.node` or `manifest.json` in that directory.
+Windows workflows and tests that require native controls need these artifacts;
+without them, those controls are unavailable even after a successful runtime build.
+
+Follow the [Windows native build guide](native/windows/README.md#build) before
+running those workflows from source. The artifact build requires Linux,
+MinGW-w64, and `tar`; the build script does not run on Windows. See that guide
+for the build and artifact-verification commands and the separate real Windows
+verification prerequisites. Keep the generated addon and manifest uncommitted.

 Source maps are not fetched by inspection. Bundle analysis fetches them only when `fetch_source_maps` is selected, with exact-origin redirect checks and no credentials, cookies, or referrer. Each fetch operation has a 30-second deadline and a 64 MiB aggregate streamed-response budget across redirects. A deadline or byte-limit failure remains explicitly unavailable and makes bundle completeness partial. Source-map decoding also bounds raw resolved identities to 64 MiB and aggregate inline evidence to 32 MiB. Failed maps preserve their failure context when it fits; if another context cannot fit, collection stops with the full requested count, the returned processed count, and an explicit unknown-results limitation. Retained mappings and original sources are returned inline. See [source-location limits](web-source-location.md) for the structural decoder bounds.

+`rea analyze <path> --provider ghidra --json` and MCP `binary_overview` report
+the observed loaded `image_base` in `normalized_result`. They retain each
+segment's reported `image_base` and `address_space`. A provider that does not
+report a base, or whose segments disagree, omits the overview field, following
+the existing contract on main. REA does not substitute zero or the first
+segment's address. All reported bases and address spaces remain visible in the
+complete segment inventory, including conflicting observations.
+
+`function` and most MCP procedure selectors use procedure names or
+provider analysis addresses. Ghidra `decompile` / MCP `procedure_pseudo_code`
+also accept source-file byte offsets. Existing symbols and analysis addresses
+take precedence; a `0x`-prefixed number that resolves to no procedure falls back
+to its observed source mapping. Use `--file-offset=0x...` on the CLI or
+`procedure: "file-offset:0x..."` through MCP to select file coordinates explicitly.
+Multiple mapping candidates fail as ambiguous rather than selecting a bank or
+address space. A successful conversion retains the file offset, mapped address
+and procedure entry in raw Evidence and `locations`.
+
+If an offset maps to loaded target bytes but no procedure starts at or contains
+the mapped address, the failure preserves both the original file offset and
+analysis address. This differs from an unmapped offset and does not recommend
+retrying the same offset syntax.
+If the function resolves but the backend fails or cancels decompilation, the
+failure retains the selector, mapped address and procedure entry without
+changing the backend failure code.
+
+Both mapping directions require a complete original `FileBytes` source whose
+SHA-256 matches the admitted target. Auxiliary files and partial source objects
+remain visible in the load-image inventory but do not establish offsets in the
+original target. Ghidra's object-local offsets are not silently treated as
+original-file coordinates. Original-source identity is checked once per source
+object per session; analysis-memory edits do not change the original bytes.
+
+ELF virtual addresses and file offsets are
+different coordinates. Ghidra can rebase a PIE ELF during import: in the
+source-owned verification fixture, ELF entry `0x1013` becomes Ghidra procedure
+`0x101013` with image base `0x100000`. That example is not a general conversion
+rule.
+
+Use `list_procedures` to select an observed procedure address. To relate file
+bytes to loaded memory, call MCP `inspect_native_load_image` or:
+
+```sh
+rea search <path> . --kind procedures --mode regex --provider ghidra --json
+rea inspect-native-load-image <path> --provider ghidra --json
+rea decompile <path> <observed-procedure-address> --provider ghidra --json
+rea decompile <path> --file-offset=0x1013 --provider ghidra --json
+rea address-to-file-offset <path> <observed-procedure-address> --provider ghidra --json
+```
+
+The load-image result preserves source-file indexes, file offsets, address
+spaces, and inclusive mapping ranges. Follow the mapping for the selected
+source file and region; adding `image_base` to an arbitrary file offset is not
+valid. For a linear byte-addressed, file-backed mapping, a file offset `F` in
+`[mapping.file_offset, mapping.file_offset + mapping.length)` maps to
+`mapping.start + (F - mapping.file_offset)` in the reported `address_space`.
+If several mappings cover the same file offset, keep those candidates distinct
+and select the procedure from the observed inventory. Uninitialized regions may
+have no file backing. ELF mappings are observed
+without independent format-specific load-image verification, as the result's
+status and limitations state.
+
+An unsuccessful numeric procedure lookup reports the current Ghidra image base
+and gives the CLI commands above alongside the corresponding MCP operations.
+Repeat any target-format, architecture, and entry-point options used to open the
+target. Other procedure operations keep their analysis-address semantics;
+file-offset fallback applies only to decompilation.
+

 One REA session owns one database. Stdio registrations default `IDA_MCP_MAX_WORKERS` to `1`; the explicit upstream `--max-workers 1` also bounds a supervisor. Database size and engine memory depend on the target and upstream; REA does not impose an engine memory limit. The original binary is never executed or overwritten. Optional `workspaceRoot` selects an existing absolute temporary-directory parent on the REA host. Ensure it has space for the input copy and IDA working files.
 
+When a completed `idb_open` response reports success or is otherwise ambiguous, but no active owned private worker can be verified, REA retains the private workspace even if `idb_list` appears empty. A later close can retry verification if the original owned worker becomes discoverable. A completed explicit `idb_open` rejection retains the existing no-worker cleanup path. This is a local admission/ownership safeguard and **does not** provide a process-termination receipt or change the legacy reaped-worker protocol.

 Headless cleanup uses the upstream database lifecycle. Abruptly terminating REA, its proxy, or the supervisor does not establish worker release.

 All profiles support procedure/string inventory and literal or regex search, procedure resolution, pseudocode, assembly, raw function instructions, resolved callees, incoming address references, and a function dossier. Inventories and modern pseudocode/assembly follow upstream pagination. Upstream limits on modern xrefs and callees are retained as explicit truncation limitations. In the modern headless profile, targets that are not proven x86-only use processor-neutral `callgraph` edges instead of the x86 instruction checks in upstream `callees` (mrexodia/ida-pro-mcp#549). REA requests depth zero: the pinned upstream emits the root's outgoing edges without scanning child functions, then REA batches function-name lookup for those addresses. The graph covers recognized function destinations only; imports and other non-function targets remain unknown. A server without `callgraph` returns an empty relationship list with an explicit coverage limitation. Graph and path workflows retain those limitations alongside observed edges. A failed or inconsistent graph reply remains an error. A transport-level truncated preview is rejected rather than reported as complete evidence; the error preserves upstream retrieval guidance.
 
+The modern headless profile also supports `resolve_containing_procedure` and `list_documents`. An address resolves through upstream `lookup_funcs` to the canonical entry of the function that contains it; the body stays unavailable like other IDA identities. When no function contains it, REA reads the database-scoped minimal `survey_binary` and reports `not_in_procedure` for an address inside one of its segments (ends are exclusive) and `outside_segments` otherwise. A missing, truncated or inconsistent survey fails the read instead of guessing a reason. `list_documents` returns the single admitted program path, so `inspect_address_context` and `trace_feature` need no explicit document. `trace_feature` marks a trace truncated, with a residual unknown for that address, when upstream caps the references it returned. The legacy and native profiles do not declare these operations.
+
 The legacy profile additionally supports direct callers. Its producer may report call-site or interior addresses; REA resolves the reported function symbol to its canonical entry. The modern and native profiles do not prove direct callers from its code/data xref labels, so that capability is unavailable and the dossier marks it unknown.
 
 Complete body ranges, typed reference edges, CFG, referenced data, source locals, comment kinds, and database revision are unavailable. Empty unsupported dossier facets mean **unknown**, not observed absence. `binary_overview`, whole-symbol inventory, mutation, debugging, arbitrary Python forwarding, and requested GUI navigation are outside this adapter's coverage. Check session availability before composing a workflow that needs those facets.

+# Windows reconciliation of recorded POSIX paths
+
+Follow-up to [#2422](https://github.com/morluto/rea/pull/2422), including
+@Aurantium-47's diagnosis of the host-dependent relative-path operation.
+
+## Source pins and real data
+
+The initial reproduction and passive producer used main
+fa4b8288655188426222773ead2ccbdaf76334fd. Before branching, main was updated
+to 8b181716aca2cb467be499cba226abfb5ae19141. The owning matcher and its
+affected reconciliation consumers were unchanged between those revisions.
+The newer baseline again reproduced both errors on the real Windows host.
+
+Input: npm 11.16.0's published lib/utils/validate-lockfile.js, 1,023 bytes,
+SHA-256 2295e2dac1c5816e1eae2d417804960ebbef17b64a0a44db4f3483ce6e6d9526.
+The installed copy was independently checked against the exact module in the
+[official registry package](https://registry.npmjs.org/npm/11.16.0).
+The 2,945,850-byte tarball matched its published SHA-512 SRI before reading
+that member; no archive extraction or installation occurred, and the tarball
+was not retained.
+
+Two actual Linux filesystem directories, Runtime/App and Runtime/app,
+held byte-identical module copies and had distinct directory identities.
+A controlled Node 24.18.0 process loaded the public module and ran its real
+function against 587 locked dependency records: compatible trees returned zero
+errors, and one controlled version mismatch returned one error. A passive REA
+Inspector capture recorded 114 loaded scripts, including the selected module.
+The provider did not evaluate, pause, resume or read source. The owned process
+exited normally. Function execution is established by the harness receipt;
+REA's passive script metadata establishes loaded status.
+
+Production static analysis inspected both directories plus an independent
+Static/public-module copy. The latter prevents implicit root matching from
+hiding the explicit mapping result. Complete static/runtime Evidence was then
+consumed by the actual **Windows** CLI and SDK 2.3.1 stdio MCP server, using
+Windows 11 10.0.22631.0 and official Windows x64 Node 24.18.0.
+No Electron GUI, IDA or Ghidra engine was used.
+
+## Correctness and provenance
+
+| Windows reconciliation                 | Baseline                       | Candidate                           |
+| -------------------------------------- | ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------- |
+| Exact POSIX input root                 | Matched, artifact path         | Same complete normalized result     |
+| Case-mismatched POSIX input root       | Incorrectly matched and loaded | Unknown; static load states unknown |
+| Exact explicit POSIX mapping           | Matched, operator file mapping | Same complete normalized result     |
+| Case-mismatched explicit POSIX mapping | Incorrectly matched and loaded | Unknown; static load states unknown |
+
+All four CLI and same-connection MCP normalized results agree. The input
+Evidence, recorded runtime facts and caller-selected root spellings are
+preserved. Rejected location membership does not establish that a module was
+absent or unexecuted. The operation remains offline and performs no target or
+filesystem inspection.
+
+The shared matcher now chooses posix.relative after identifying POSIX input;
+Windows coordinates continue to use win32.relative. Both location matching
+and active-layer scope use this owner. The obsolete host-default import is
+removed; no downstream repair or new path abstraction is introduced.
+
+The related suite passed 102 tests: 15 workflow tests, 85 CI scope tests and
+two curated-path checks. Four simulated Electron Evidence controls cover
+POSIX mismatch/exact matching, Windows case-insensitive matching, the resulting
+asset load state and retained mapping spelling. They are service regressions,
+not real Electron-provider verification. The existing workflow test file is
+registered in both the Windows execution lane and its package-change scope.
+
+## Delivery and resource observations
+
+Probes ran serially at BelowNormal priority with one CPU and 512 MiB Node heap
+settings for CLI/server/client work. Heap settings do not bound aggregate memory.
+Four corrected CLI exit-time observations reported 7.343–15.827 seconds CPU and
+322,308–324,280 KiB peak working set, excluding the probe parent. Wall times
+ranged from 7.785 to 17.601 seconds. There is no paired resource baseline.
+
+One complete MCP trial connected in 18,296 ms and discovered 189 tools in
+875 ms (2,588,336 serialized bytes). The four subsequent same-connection calls
+took 879, 320, 353 and 422 ms. Their serialized replies were 918,133 / 913,765 /
+918,571 / 914,171 bytes; inputs totalled 681,312 bytes. Discovery plus these
+inputs and replies totalled 6,934,288 bytes, excluding initialization, framing
+and notifications. This is delivery volume, not model token usage. Actual
+model context and total model task cost were not measured.
+
+A process-generation sampler recorded 233 observations over 25,671 ms:
+15,797 ms aggregate observed CPU as a lower bound and a peak sampled working-set
+sum of 491,597,824 bytes (about 469 MiB). Exited-process tails can be missed;
+shared pages can be counted twice. This excludes the observer and is not an
+exact physical-memory peak. The server wrote four structured completion records
+to stderr; tool replies and normalized results passed the recorded checks.
+
+Cold/warm caches and observer differences were not normalized. No latency,
+CPU, memory or model-token improvement is claimed. The fix adds no lookup I/O,
+engine invocation, retry or cache. Complete default replies remain available;
+only compact selected findings and hashes were sent to the investigating agent.
+
+## Main integration replay
+
+Runtime cb0d8a9fef2b907cff2ba27f1e017493e1173eb2, rebased onto main
+73dd8d6ed, again passed the 101 related tests and all four real Windows CLI/MCP
+cases using the unchanged older producer Evidence. Positive results and original
+runtime/layer facts remain identical. Typecheck, lint, dependency and metadata
+checks passed; all five changed files passed formatting independently.
+The full format gate at that main revision failed on the unchanged upstream
+GhidraDoctor.test.ts and GhidraSnapshotCache.test.ts files. The PR does not
+repair those unrelated baseline files. Resource figures above refer to the
+earlier candidate; the integration replay does not establish a speedup.
+
+Review found that owning only the Windows test path would still skip that lane
+on a later implementation-only edit. The matcher implementation is now also
+registered in package scope. A source-only classifier case verifies that it
+selects both Windows package and JavaScript recovery lanes; 85 scope checks and
+two curated-path checks pass. Runtime code and the real-data checks are unchanged.
+
+The original production fix merged as
+[1a1b67c88](https://github.com/morluto/rea/commit/1a1b67c88) while this follow-up
+was open. The follow-up was then rebased onto main fb28ec153 and contains only
+the stronger workflow assertions, Windows lane ownership, scope classification
+and this verification record. The updated 131 related tests, two representative
+Ghidra boundary tests, seven IDA input-thinning tests, 24 semantic-structure
+tests, 16 required-lane checks, 39 release-checkpoint tests and 11 dyld CLI
+tests passed after the rebase (230 total).
+Upstream a0317cf73 corrected the invalid FAT fixture and consolidated unrelated
+duplicated helpers; e05d3399f aligned the older parameter-provenance assertion
+with the upstream semantics. Those changes, the threshold change and the new
+CI qualification tiers are part of main, outside this follow-up's diff.
+Upstream 747e72991 restored release preflight coverage for reusable workflow
+jobs. The independently reviewed, fully green #2755 fixture correction merged
+as fb28ec153 and restored real x64 dyld CLI admission without altering the
+original same-named arm64e assertions.
+No production source is duplicated by the follow-up.
