E-5: the module-identity bridge called installingModule._malloc, but this
build exposes _malloc only as a bare glue-closure export (Module._malloc is
absent) — every char/stat event entry threw TypeError, which also starved
the E-6 credit window (thrown dispatches never acked) and wedged the queued
bg-finished frame behind them. The bridge now uses the bare closure exports
(identity is still exact: the EM_JS body IS the installing module's closure;
the __ngspiceOnEvent self-disarm covers supersession).
E-6 (codex reference design corrected — its validation matrix never ran):
a FULL credit window was terminal (stopEventStream at 64 in-flight frames).
Under live e2e that killed a real simulation: bg-thread emissions proxy one
per task, so each line ships as its own frame and a normal transient outruns
a busy main thread. A full window now DEFERS into a bounded FIFO (512 events
/ 4 MiB) drained in order as acks free credit; only true overload or an
invalid ack is terminal. Retention stays bounded (8 MiB in flight + 4 MiB
deferred + 1 MiB open batch). And the service/harness mirror queue now acks
at ENQUEUE — placing a frame in the bounded pre-handler queue is taking
ownership; without that, a stream starting before the C++ handler installs
(the ngspice-probe page) starves the worker window forever.
Test updates: worker-batch reducer — new "a full credit window defers and
drains in order, never terminal" case pinning the regression; the storm case
now proves the deferred caps are the terminal edge. board-ready.ts gains the
owner-free openBoardProgrammatically (codex helper the ported occ-export
spec needs; the barrier-based waitForUiBoardReady was NOT taken).
occ-export.spec: domId is optional on this line's registry (coordinate
fallback is the supported path).

E-8 (re-implemented for JSPI — the codex gate is entangled with the dropped
execution owner; under JSPI a fresh non-suspending JS→wasm entry while
another activation is suspended is structurally safe on its own stack, so
the admission boundary for worker completions is liveness + trap state, not
execution ownership):
- jspi-scheduler.js grows `terminal` (trapped instance; distinct from `dead`),
canTouchNative(), _terminalizeNativeTrap() (WebAssembly.RuntimeError +
cross-realm string classification), and runWaitCompletion(site, token,
prepare, inertResult): prepare runs immediately and owns ALL native work;
stale tokens and dead/terminal instances drop loudly without resolving
(resolving would resume the parked frame inside the damaged module); a
trap latches terminal; a plain JS bug resolves inertResult so the wait
fails instead of stranding. beginWait refuses (token 0) when dead/terminal.
- all four delayed completion sites route their native work through the
gate: 'OCC export completion' (exporter_step_stub), 'OCC model completion'
(oce_plugin_stub — the MEMFS cache write moves inside the gate too),
'ngspice request completion' and 'ngspice vector completion'
(sharedspice_client — every HEAP32/HEAPF64/malloc write inside prepare,
inertResult 1 = transport error). Every wxWasmBeginWait caller in the
stubs bails on token <= 0.
- deliberately NOT ported from codex: ownerModule, enqueueNativeCompletion,
executionBarrier, the byte-credit native-entry FIFO — completions are
one-shot per wait token and stream volume is bounded at the E-6 transport
credit window. Cross-refs logged for group M (M-2/M-6/M-8).
E-5 (re-implemented; codex shape kept, owner APIs replaced with the E-8
gate): js_ngspice_install_events binds the handler to the EXACT installing
module (handler.__pcbjamNgspiceOwnerModule stamp; presence is not identity),
re-installation replaces a foreign module's handler, a superseded handler
disarms itself, native entry goes through installingModule._malloc/
._pcbjam_ngspice_event (never lexical Module), each dispatch checks
canTouchNative() (loud drop on a dead/terminal module), and a trap on the
per-line entry latches the terminal gate.
Tests: scheduler-shim.test.ts +7 (gate happy/stale/dead/terminal/cross-realm/
js-bug/beginWait-refusal). e2e specs updated from the codex line: occ-export
decode-fault recovery (real onmessageerror transition via failDecode, J-4),
ngspice-probe direct-service coverage, eeschema-sim rewritten onto the E-7
applied-generation receipt (codex's executionBarrier await replaced with a
pendingWaits('ngspice') drain poll — the JSPI-line equivalent).
Also bumps the kicad submodule to the E-7/E-9 commit (dd5751038f7).

Squash of experiment/ff-big-modules vs main.
Big-module routing removed: native-EH shrank kicad_editor below
SpiderMonkey's x86-64 code budget (runs 29355049705/29356152413 green on
stock Firefox), so BIG_MODULE_SPECS routing and the baseline-only-JIT
crutch are gone — kicad-firefox and kicad-chromium both run the full
suite, with the module compiled the way real users' browsers compile it.
Per-engine screenshots end to end: stableShot/shotPath write
test-results/<engine>/<name>.png; baselines move to
baseline-screenshots/{chromium,firefox}/ and the whole tools/screenshots
pipeline (compare/promote/manifest/spec-map/changelog/Discord) keys on
<engine>/<name>. Previously Firefox and Chromium renders of one spec
overwrote each other and Firefox renders were never actually gated.
Seeded from CI run 29421380806 (92 new firefox baselines, +24 chromium
web-suite shots); manifest generated from the baseline tree.
One merged playwright.config.ts (kicad/asyncify/coroutine/perf as
projects); ~25 dead npm scripts dropped. The web suite is gated in CI for
the first time ever (4 rotted specs fixed, 5 broken lib-bridge specs
triaged as fixme in docs/features/web-e2e-rot/); cheap lint step after
npm ci; last 26 blind-sleep violations fixed.
SwiftShader retired: CI Chromium renders WebGL on ANGLE → Mesa llvmpipe
(--use-gl=angle --use-angle=gl --ignore-gpu-blocklist; the blocklist flag
is mandatory — llvmpipe is blocklisted and WebGL is silently unavailable
without it) in BOTH configs. Under WORKERS=4 congestion SwiftShader
transiently failed the first post-board-load draw and the recovery
cascade ended in a silent permanent Cairo fallback — that engine flip was
the "~1.2% changedRatio both directions" occ-export baseline flake.
Validated 160/160 across two 80-repeat rigs; full analysis in
docs/features/wx-parity-bugs/occ-export-context-eviction.md. Chromium
baselines shift slightly on llvmpipe — promote once from the first green
run. Deflakes the new coverage exposed: presence baselines settle before
capture; presence fixtures declare current file formats; perf gets its
own outputDir so CI evidence survives; occ-export settles the board paint
before the export dialog; menu-item waits (waitForRenderedByLabel before
clickMenuItem) in 4 specs + the TESTING.md rule.
Web suite runs the PROD build, in parallel: webServer becomes backend
`start` + the standalone's e2e:preview (build-preview.mjs: link-wasm →
stash the public/wasm symlink aside during vite build, build-demo.mjs's
move — then vite preview as the persistent server). The wasm middleware
serves /wasm/* in preview and emits COOP/COEP/CORP itself (a pthread
worker script's own response must carry COEP or Chrome kills it with
ERR_BLOCKED_BY_RESPONSE). VITE_* flags bake at build time;
VITE_ALLOW_USER_OVERRIDE joins turbo globalEnv. fullyParallel + default
workers: 5.2m → 1.4m. Determinism fixes the parallel run exposed:
shared-page specs become serial groups; locks.spec grabs alice's exact
item via the new kicadCollabTestSelectByUuid hook (cross-tab "first
footprint" order is not a ysync invariant); quit specs poll page.url()
(quit supersedes its own navigation — NS_BINDING_ABORTED on Firefox).
Suite: 51 passed / 12 skipped / 0 failed in 1.6m.
CI-coverage gate (lint:ci-coverage): every tests/**/*.spec.ts must be
reachable from the npm scripts the workflows invoke — scraped from
.github/workflows/, resolved through package.json, coverage asked from
playwright --list itself. Rules: uncovered-spec + orphan-project (with a
documented LOCAL_ONLY_PROJECTS allowlist). Gating next to
lint:determinism; 138 spec files / 13 projects accounted for.
Product fixes kept from the investigations (reachable on real GPUs too):
wx 7799fd1be5 — paint flags clear before dispatch + Invalidate always
propagates; kicad 3dcfea5e45 — SwiftShader pass-boundary flush +
per-instance font texture + first-frame GL-error drain (GAL recovery
recovers instead of falling back to Cairo) + the user-facing eeschema
switch navigates again under __EMSCRIPTEN__ (project-sync's
FaceRegistered gate had rerouted it into the hidden sync player; caught
by the newly-gated web suite).

Make the Playwright e2e + kicad suites deterministic so screenshot flake stops
tracing to timing races.
- Blind page.waitForTimeout -> condition waits (expect.poll, web-first
assertions, waitUntil) + readiness helpers (waitForWxApp, waitForCanvasApp).
Remaining sleeps are documented interaction dwells (annotated).
- Defensive "if element exists" branches -> loud asserts; label-fallback chains
-> normalized clickMenuItemByText. First-run wizard for/if loops removed by
seeding calculator/gerbview/pcbnew HTMLs.
- Screenshots: new stableShot(page, name) settles the render in-page (canvas
hash over rAF) then writes a raw PNG to test-results/ for the existing offline
gate (tools/screenshots vs baseline-screenshots). Replaces toHaveScreenshot,
which did inline compare + its own baselines and had decoupled the specs from
the real gate. scale:'css' pinned.
- retries: 0 in both configs.
- Guard: tests/tools/lint-determinism.ts (npm run lint:determinism) bans blind
sleeps / toHaveScreenshot / inline retries / swallowed catches in specs;
documented exceptions carry a marker. Rules in tests/TESTING.md.
Assertions, coverage, and renders unchanged (semantic-equivalence reviewed;
captures pixel-identical modulo inherent timer/timestamp/3d-raytrace variance).
Both suites green at retries:0 (e2e 340, kicad 92); ~35-61% faster.

Move OpenCASCADE out of the merged editor image into occ_service: a separate
emscripten module (-sASYNCIFY=0, MODULARIZE, in-container -Oz finalize, 2N+8
pre-warmed pthread pool) booted lazily in a dedicated Web Worker on the first
STEP export or STEP/IGES model parse. kicad_editor.wasm ~190 MB -> 130 MB;
sessions that never touch OCC never fetch its 57 MB. STEP export works in the
browser for the first time: the unchanged desktop dialog runs EXPORTER_STEP,
whose wasm shadow suspends into globalThis.occService and the export bytes go
straight to a browser download (never entering the editor heap). STEP/IGES 3D
models parse in the worker via the oce shadow (S3D WriteCache/ReadCache wire).
- wasm/occ-service/: service CMake target (hooked from the kicad fork's
top-level CMakeLists, wasm/editor pattern), embind entry
(occExport/occLoadModel), wxConfig pre-js.
- wasm/stubs/{exporter_step,oce_plugin}_stub.cpp: EM_ASYNC_JS worker bridges
(callee-shadowing; no caller #ifdefs).
- web/standalone: provider installed whenever the kicad_editor bundle boots
(cross-face safe); ONE shared worker-boot source occ-worker.js (vite ?raw;
the e2e stub reads the same file) — blob worker with locateFile absolutized
against the glue URL; export download-name guard.
- deps: OCC builds with RapidJSON so its glTF/GLB writer exists — pinned to
the vcpkg master snapshot 2025-02-26 (24b5e7a8b27f), the same code official
KiCad consumes via vcpkg.json's opencascade[rapidjson]; rapidjson's latest
tag (v1.1.0, 2016) is ill-formed under modern clang.
- tests: occ-export dialog e2e (lazy-fetch boundary + STEP download bytes),
occ-probe incl. a 9-format matrix (step/stpz/brep/xao/ply/stl/glb/u3d/pdf),
3d-viewer-models hard-asserts the worker parse; occ provider stub installed
ambiently by the kicad fixtures.
Validated against desktop kicad-cli 10.0.4: geometric exact equality (bbox
delta 0 um, volume delta 0.0000%) for STEP/GLB/STL/BREP/STPZ across three
boards and option sweeps — with desktop OCC 7.9 vs wasm OCC 7.8; PLY/XAO/PDF
structurally equal; U3D same-size (quantizer float LSBs differ). Full kicad
e2e green on Firefox and Chromium; standalone verified end to end (lazy fetch
only on the Export click; export.step 60,628 B ISO-10303-21; loadModel 700 KB
STEP -> 569 KB scenegraph cache).
