The runtime is JSPI-only; this removes everything that still pretended
otherwise. Three exhaustive sweeps (C++/JS+build+CI/tests+docs) drove
the inventory; every deletion verified by grep closure + full gates.
Broken-right-now fixes:
- deploy-staging.yml passed the retired opt_level input — the workflow
could not even start. Removed.
- env.sh carried dead exports with a live -sASYNCIFY=1 inside
(WASM_LDFLAGS/PTHREAD_LDFLAGS, zero consumers). Removed; the
WASM_LEGACY_EXCEPTIONS rationale rewritten to the real reason.
- docker/build.sh exported PCBJAM_ASYNC_BACKEND (read nowhere). Gone.
Dead weight removed:
- binaryen submodule (nothing builds or invokes it), wasm-opt-bench
workflow + scripts/bench/, get-wasm-opt.sh, diagnostics.js (242 lines
of Asyncify-API-only code), the KICAD_PIPELINE background-postprocess
scaffolding (existed to parallelize the deleted wasm-opt phase; the
postprocess is a seconds-long node script and now runs inline),
build-monitor's dead asyncify rows, sched-context orphan build
output, dead .gitignore entries, the .jspi-assets spike dir (the two
wf-result research JSONs moved to docs/features/async/migration-evidence/).
- bindings: fiber_park.h + its 12 embind registrations (broken-if-
called under JSPI), the kicadOpenFileStart/OPEN_JOB starter route,
main_stack_runner.h + 5 includes, the always-null context-sleep weak
hook in nanosleep_yield.c.
- shim: the backend field (installed-flag idempotency instead),
noteContextWait (dead both sides), the __wxAsyncifyDump alias (+ the
WasmTool fallback and string-dump normalize branch).
- web: the emscripten-6-ignored mainScriptUrlOrBlob option in boot.ts
(gerber-demo keeps it: it loads the deployed CDN release, which
predates emscripten 6 — noted inline).
Conditionals: all 'backend === jspi' checks reduced to scheduler-
presence checks; races_quiescent re-keyed from Asyncify.state (vacuous)
to real backlog quiescence (resumeReady/mutatorQueue — NOT _windowLive,
which is the probing activation's own window by definition).
Renames (identifiers only, no file renames): ASYNC_LINK_FLAGS→
JSPI_LINK_FLAGS and Makefile ASYNC_LDFLAGS→JSPI_LDFLAGS,
kicadCollabFiberBusy→kicadCollabBusy (embind + web + tests),
collab_common.h fiber*→apply*/coroutine naming, asyncifySignatures→
wasmTrapSignatures (lists byte-identical).
Tests: the two remaining vacuous [wx-asyncify]/fiber-resume-refused
asserts re-keyed to live JSPI beacons; eeschema-load's failure message
no longer sends the developer to a deleted script; wait-beacons' dead
families/parser deleted; lane-0 legacy-glue guards removed (lane 0 is
unconstructible); the embind test.fail re-gated with the JSPI reason
(plain embind invokers cannot suspend — verified still failing);
lint-determinism now scans tests/jspi (166 files clean);
eeschema-collab local-move gated to chromium (~50% flaky on FF even
solo; pcbnew twin covers both engines).
Docs: DEBUG.md rewritten as the JSPI debugging guide; build.md
describes the single-phase build; docs/features/async/README.md
banner-marked historical and repointed at the NEW
23-jspi-runtime.md (current architecture: export census, turnstile,
libcontext ownership + refusal contract, embind call shapes, the
em-pthread service-wrapper trick, exception policy, known gaps).
Gates on the cleaned tree: test:e2e 725 passed / 0 failed (after the
quiescence-probe fix; the 3 other reds were verified contention flakes
solo-green or the documented FF gate), web 76/0, jspi 18/18 both
engines, vitest 295/295 + 17/17, all lints green, live-app census
clean.

Live-app fix (Place Footprints / routing dead in Chrome): submodule
bumps carry the coroutine ownership fix (kicad 012d95ecb4) and the
handler-exception survival fix (wxwidgets 1b5f0e31f4).
Emscripten-6 fallout:
- occ/ngspice worker wrappers: mainScriptUrlOrBlob was removed
upstream; pthread children re-run the wrapper blob, so an em-pthread
realm now importScripts the glue and gets out of the way (before:
recursive service boots, pool never fills, silent 180s boot hangs —
every occ spec and ngspice bg_run).
- Makefile.wasm: -sASYNCIFY frankenlinks on the no-wx coroutine repro
targets ported to -sJSPI (the JSPI-only libcontext crashed at first
yield under them); mainloop/gl repro pages drive their tick through a
promising export (emscripten_set_main_loop callbacks cannot suspend);
retired inject-dyncall-shims lines removed (targets were unbuildable
since Phase 8); $stringToNewUTF8 force-included (the EM_ASM value
bridge aborted the runtime on the first decoded exception).
- fiber-park levers: neither embind shape can drive suspending levers
(plain throws on strict-JSPI Firefox; emscripten::async() re-executes
its invoker on settle) — kept sync for manual Chromium probing, spec
coverage moved to the jspi-coroutine harness (18 cases).
Suite work:
- Playwright 1.61.1 -> 1.62.1 (Firefox 153: JSPI on by default).
- fiber-resume-park.spec retired -> coroutine-lifecycle.spec: census
gate over boot / board load / chooser open / cancel (deterministically
red on the pre-fix build).
- Blind asyncify-era pins re-keyed: quasimodal-strand + wait-beacons
beacon regexes, footprint-chooser-close liveness -> wx parking-timer
heartbeat (scheduler counters idle flat on Firefox).
- occ/ngspice test providers: 60s boot timeout + worker error
surfacing (a worker death used to be a silent 180s timeout).
- Harness pages: stale 9.99 config dir -> 10.0 (library_manager wxCHECK
noise, chooser had no libraries).
- gal-webgl harness: missing artifacts rebuilt (boost/glm extracted to
the host sysroot), PgmOrNull stub added for the rebased GAL.
- jspi-scheduler: clean-shutdown console line restored (app-quit
contract), quarantine never yanks SP from a live window.
Gates: test:e2e 699 passed / 0 failed (wx-chromium, kicad-firefox,
kicad-chromium, jspi-firefox, coroutine-firefox); web ff/cr/mobile 71
passed; lint:ci-coverage 166, lint:determinism 163, screenshots
manifest 492 current, corpus 7/7, tools:contract green. Offline
screenshot baselines show expected mass drift from the engine bump —
re-baseline (screenshots:noise -> promote) is a follow-up.

Phase 8 in the parent repo. Deleted: asyncify-scheduler.js, apply-asyncify.sh,
apply-finalize.sh, inject-dyncall-shims.sh, asyncify-imports/removelist.txt,
the wasm-opt/finalize stub pair, scripts/binaryen-hoist-pass/ (the fork stays
a dormant submodule; removal is a follow-up), bench/wasm-opt-bench.sh (README
marked historical), wasm/shims/context_sleep.cpp, and the sched-context
harness app + Makefile targets.
PCBJAM_ASYNC_BACKEND is gone: build-wx-wasm.sh hardcodes the jspi stamp
(still force-cleans pre-migration trees), build-kicad-target.sh gives editors
the JSPI link surface and the CLIs nothing (they pin ASYNCIFY=0), the stub
dance is replaced by an unconditional .real-restore, build-wasm-test.sh lost
its whole post-link loop, docker/build.sh's postprocess is the ENV shim only,
and Makefile.wasm links every app JSPI with the scheduler shim as a tracked
prerequisite. pcbjam_async_policy.h keys on __EMSCRIPTEN__.
jspi-scheduler.js: wxWasmMainLoopPump dropped from the wrap census (the
export died with the D5 detach); inert [TRACE] instrumentation removed.
CI: wasm-build.yml rewritten for the single-cache pipeline (one output cache
keyed on compile inputs; post-processed bytes cached after the shim);
opt_level input removed from both callers. wasm-cache-hash.mjs inputs now
cover patch-env-shim.mjs + jspi-scheduler.js + jspi-exports.txt.

THE BUG IS FIXED. tests/kicad/quasimodal-strand.spec.ts flips from a
test.fail() pin to a plain green regression test: 3/3 runs
closed=true dialogs=0 refused-resumes=0 (was closed=false dialogs=1
refused-resumes=1 on every run).
Mechanism: a quasi-modal's nested event loop parked on the TOOL
COROUTINE's stack, which suspends the fiber's body where the fiber layer
cannot see it — so the stale-fiber guard quarantined the fiber and then
refused its own resume, the dispatch guard was never released, and every
click after that was deferred forever. Bouncing the nested loop onto the
main stack leaves the coroutine suspended the legitimate way (a recorded
fiber swap), so nothing is quarantined and nothing is refused.
Layering, so this is not a pile of WASM ifdefs in KiCad:
- wx (3d37db3bf1) owns the POLICY and the hook; it must not know what a
coroutine is.
- wasm/bindings/main_stack_runner.h is the only place that may know both
sides: it finds the frame's TOOL_MANAGER and bounces via RunMainStack.
Header-only and self-installing, so no build-script change; included by
every editor's binding TU.
- KiCad gets ONE ifdef-free method (2c777efede), needed only because
TOOL_STATE is opaque outside TOOL_MANAGER. libcontext and dialog_shim
are untouched — an earlier draft edited both and was reverted.
This also reframes the remaining plan: the doc-19 class is closed WITHOUT
migrating tool coroutines onto scheduler contexts. Note it does not make
the wait a context yield — waits still park in place, just never on a
coroutine stack.

Doc 20 §6 D1, second slice: the dedicated test app D1 calls for, plus
the doc 20 §7 risk-1 gate.
tests/apps/standalone/sched-context/ drives the primitives with no wx
linked (a failure can only be the contexts layer) and assertions ON —
unlike the races harness, an emscripten "cannot start an async
operation" state here IS the bug, not a tolerated state. Nine
scenarios, each pinning one invariant; the load-bearing ones:
- parked_does_not_block: a parked context does not stop others running.
This is doc 19's freeze made unrepresentable — there a parked activity
held a global interlock and the UI died; here "parked" simply means
"not runnable", and three workers run past it before it resumes.
- one_transition_in_flight: a context calling drain() gets a no-op, with
a second ready context queued so a buggy nested drain would actually
run something and be caught.
- async_wake: a real macrotask hop (setTimeout → mark_ready → drain),
the shape every production bridge has.
- deep_park_sizing: parks 64 live frames deep to measure what a park
actually costs.
The memory gate asserts the ceiling (peak live contexts, peak bytes),
that nothing leaked (live=0, bytes=0, created==finished), that nothing
was left mid-transition, and that refusals occurred (zero would mean the
illegal-operation scenarios stopped provoking).
Measured here: ~34 B/frame, 2200 B for a 64-frame park, 1 MB peak for 4
concurrent contexts. Recorded with the caveat that the harness's frames
carry three locals each, so this is a FLOOR — real bridges save far more
per frame (libcontext runs 512 K after a 64 K buffer silently
overflowed). The apparatus and its units are validated; the sizing
DECISION needs deep-park numbers from real bridges at D3/D4.
playwright.config: asyncify-firefox now matches every spec in ./asyncify
instead of only asyncify-races* — a new harness there is covered by
construction rather than by remembering to widen the pattern.

Gate results (single battery, scheduler-only): wx app battery +
asyncify + coroutine 363 passed / 3 skipped / 0 failed; full kicad
suite 138 passed / 30 skipped / 1 failed — the one failure is the
pre-existing local occ-probe glb case (predates D-1, unrelated).
Post-gate scrubs: vestigial 'startModal' removed from ASYNCIFY_IMPORTS
(tests/apps/Makefile.wasm) and env.startModal from
scripts/common/asyncify-imports.txt (the import no longer exists in any
wasm; both lists are boundary supersets so behavior is identical).
Stale comment pointers to the deleted legacy modal machinery updated.

Doc 20 D-1 (legacy runtime deletion), first slice: races_test_noheal /
races_test_nosleepfix pinned behavior of the legacy handlesleep shim,
which is being deleted — the pins now assert properties of a runtime
that no longer exists. Drops the two Makefile.wasm link+inject variants
(SHIM_DISABLE_TRAMPOLINE_HEAL / SHIM_DISABLE_HANDLESLEEP), the
shim-redundancy pin specs in asyncify-races.spec.ts, and resolves the
tests/README.md open task. The green battery still runs every scenario
against the scheduler glue.

Self-asserting wx app (tests/apps/standalone/uipolish) with 8 checks:
clip-clear / clip-empty / clip-box (DC clip box reaches the canvas — the
collapsed wire-properties-panel bug), blit-origin (wxBufferedDC device
origin), mask-alpha (ConvertToImage carries wxMask — infobar close button),
scaled-dims (physical size for scaled bitmaps), checkbox-floor (selection-
filter density) and statbmp-best (bundle logical size — layer-panel icons).
The spec runs a default-DPR pass plus a deviceScaleFactor:2 pass that also
asserts the statbmp <img> ships the 32px asset at 16 CSS px.
Bumps wxwidgets for the CloneGDIRefData SOURCE_NONE fix the @2x pass
surfaced (empty statbmp data URL on hi-DPI).

The ~1/9 wasm trap on CvPcb open ("index out of bounds" / "indirect call to
null" in a footprint AsyncLoad pool worker, then eeschema aborting on the
broken future — and the eeschema-fp-selector "CI-only" trap family, which was
never llvmpipe-specific) was wxString's UTF-8 build mutating SHARED strings on
read-only access from concurrent pool workers: every iterator ctor/dtor
spliced an intrusive list inside the string object, and torn splices wrote
through dead node pointers into other threads' stack frames. Second defect:
the UTF-8 position cache returned stale offsets when another thread's string
died and its address was reused.
Fixed in the wxwidgets fork (per-thread iterator registry + position cache
disabled under Emscripten) — kicad is untouched and AsyncLoad keeps its full
multi-worker fan-out. Falsified along the way (all perturbation masks, not
fixes): serializing the items, mimalloc vs dlmalloc, pthread stack size,
ASYNCIFY_STACK_SIZE, private-copy EnumFromStr, hot-path logging.
New red-first standalone app tests/apps/standalone/wxstring-mt (+ spec
coroutine-wxstring-mt.spec.ts, wx-chromium + coroutine-firefox): shared-string
compares alternating with wide-literal conversions reproduce the exact editor
trap signatures on the unfixed wx and run 4.7M rounds clean on the fixed one;
the pos-cache address-reuse dance corrupts on the first reuse before and
survives 673 after; two guard modes keep the iterator fix-up feature honest
(incl. an anti-elision liveness check — balanced register/unregister pairs in
tight loops can legally be optimized away, so a naive red test tests nothing).
Verification: wx+coroutine suites 382 passed; in-app AsyncLoad hammer 3x1000
rounds clean (baseline died <10); eeschema-assign-footprints spec 20/20
firefox + 20/20 chromium on the final build; lint:determinism clean.

Replace the legacy Emscripten JS-exceptions model with native wasm-EH (legacy
encoding) across the whole build, keeping Asyncify coroutines working via a
from-source Binaryen --hoist-cpp-catches pre-pass. Net result: native-EH is the
only build mode, the 3D viewer is on by default, and pcbnew shrinks substantially.
Highlights:
- Binaryen submodule everywhere + --hoist-cpp-catches integration in apply-asyncify;
post-link Asyncify covers every app wasm (not just standalone test wasm).
- Build deps (incl. OpenCASCADE without OCC_CONVERT_SIGNALS) and all KiCad apps
with -fwasm-exceptions; emscripten_sleep added to the post-link asyncify-imports.
- libcontext fiber entry wired under native exceptions; while-loop main loop +
currData shim injected into all wx apps.
- Native-EH collab apply fixed: DEBUG-define the embind TU + match all out-of-CMake
C++ TUs' ABI flags to the core, fixing the vtable-layout skew / mis-dispatch.
- 3D viewer enabled by default (real raytracer linked, not the stub).
- Retire the EH-spike scaffolding; flip the asyncify-races ablation pins to
shim-redundancy pins (native-EH stays clean with the legacy shims ablated).
- Fix the asyncify-races quiescence check to not require Asyncify.currData==0:
under the native-EH per-frame-yield top loop the main stack is asyncify-suspended
every frame, so currData legitimately churns (a freed-but-not-yet-nulled buffer,
not a leak). Refresh the pcbnew toolbar screenshot baseline for the new kicad.
- CI: drop the obsolete binaryen_version input/env (the build uses the binaryen
submodule fork's wasm-opt, not a version download); key the wasm-output cache on
the binaryen submodule SHA instead.
Bumps the wxwidgets + binaryen submodules to their squashed feature commits.
Validated green: all 7 apps native-EH (real 3D in pcbnew); KiCad e2e 63/63
Firefox + Chromium (3D viewer renders); wx 336; coroutine 34/34 both engines;
asyncify 7/7 both engines.

- Standalone wx test apps (contextmenu, scrollbar) + e2e specs proving the
wxScrollBar control, the wxScrolledWindow gutter, and DoPopupMenu.
- KiCad in-app specs: pl_editor + pcbnew canvas right-click context menus and
scrolled-panel scrollbar gutters, with baseline screenshots.
- build-wx-wasm.sh: serial -j1 fallback when the parallel build trips the
intermittent clean-build race (a generated header read mid-rewrite by
concurrent compiles; never happens at -j1). Recovery resumes from built
objects; a genuine error still fails the serial pass.

- tests/apps/standalone/{textctrl-reentry,tooltip-lifetime}: standalone wx repro
apps + Makefile.wasm targets (textctrl links -fexceptions to throw from a
wxEVT_TEXT handler), driven by tests/e2e/dom-port-bugs.spec.ts. Each app is
deterministic and self-contained (no UB, ASAN, or timing dependence).
- docs/features/wx-dom-port/branch-review.md: branch review with findings #2/#3
marked fixed and a "Bug reproductions and fixes" section, including the
asyncify + legacy-EH gotcha (catch/destructor landing pads are unreliable
while unwinding through asyncify frames).

The canvas (wxUniversal) mode is gone (wxwidgets submodule); remove every
piece of side-by-side plumbing so there is exactly one build and one test
flow:
- scripts/build-wxuniversal-wasm.sh -> scripts/build-wx-wasm.sh; no
--dom/--enable-universal; builds into build-wasm/wxwidgets
- build-wasm-test.sh: no DOM_BUILD / apps-dom rsync mirror / PORT=dom;
apps build straight into tests/apps (Makefile.wasm PORT conditionals
collapsed; wx.js + wx-dom.js always pre-js)
- docker/build.sh, build-kicad-target.sh, env.sh: WX_PORT / -dom /
-universal suffixes removed; kicad builds to kicad-<app>, outputs to
output/; wx.js/wx-dom.js copied from the real source path
(/workspace/wxwidgets/build/wasm — the old build-wasm path never
existed and silently failed)
- setup-kicad-wasm.sh: single target dir; the perl wx-dom.js injection is
gone — the 7 checked-in kicad pages now reference wx-dom.js directly
- playwright configs serve apps/; fixtures drop the test-results/dom and
logs/wxwidgets/dom namespacing; boot.spec asserts wxDomPort
unconditionally; pcbnew.spec uses one reference image;
appearance.spec assertions unconditional
- compare/update-baseline-screenshots.sh: --port removed
- tests/gal-regression/wasm/Makefile: links build-wasm/wxwidgets and
carries wx-dom.js as a second pre-js — the gal-webgl suite (30 specs)
now actually builds and runs here (it needed host-side boost+glm via
scripts/deps; the bundle had been missing, timing the whole spec out)
- tests: clickCanvas() dispatches via page.mouse (DOM widgets
legitimately cover the canvas; locator actionability refused the
click); the comprehensive spec drives wxChoice through its native
<select> (browser-owned popup cannot be coordinate-clicked)
- docs: README/CLAUDE.md/build.md script names and dirs;
features/wx-dom-port README reframed (DOM is THE port), visual-notes
bugs 26-28; FindwxWidgets.cmake config label drops 'wasmuniv'
- wxwidgets submodule -> 9dbacc9448 (DOM-only port, fork diff shrunk)
Gate: full wx e2e suite 292 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed — first run
ever with the gal-webgl specs green (28 scenarios + load + sequential).

Build/test plumbing for the second wxWidgets mode: --dom on
build-wxuniversal-wasm.sh (build-wasm/wxwidgets-dom, no universal,
--disable-tooltips, libwx_wasmu_* stubs) and build-wasm-test.sh
(mirrors sources into tests/apps-dom, PORT=dom). Build script now
reconfigures when Makefile.in or autoconf_inc.m4 regenerate (bakefile
chain). Harness: WX_PORT=dom serves apps-dom, namespaces screenshots
into test-results/dom and logs into logs/wxwidgets/dom; compare/update
screenshot scripts take --port dom with baseline-screenshots-dom.
New port-agnostic boot.spec.ts (green on both ports).

The asyncify single-slot work, executed red-green (full ledger:
docs/features/asyncify-arbiter/redgreen.md; decisions record:
docs/features/async/07-decisions-and-outcome.md):
- tests/apps/standalone/asyncify-races/ + tests/asyncify/ + dedicated
playwright config: 8 scenarios reproducing the KiCad asyncify failure
family with the kicad-faithful startup topology (pre-park fiber swap →
park throw through the live trampoline). Built in 3 variants; the
SHIM_DISABLE_TRAMPOLINE_HEAL / SHIM_DISABLE_HANDLESLEEP ablation builds
keep the historical hang and index-out-of-bounds crash reproducible
forever (mutation-style pins for the existing shims).
- scripts/common/shims/handlesleep.js: catch the "unwind" park sentinel
in the wakeUp path — when main's last pre-park suspension was a sleep,
the main-loop park throw escaped through that sleep's promise reaction
as an uncaught rejection (the calculator/gerbview console errors).
- scripts/common/inject-dyncall-shims.sh: SHIM_DISABLE_* ablation knobs.
- Spec tightening (the acceptance bar): 'uncaught exception: unwind'
tolerance DELETED from pcbnew/eeschema specs; load-pcb gained a hard
clean-console gate over 5 asyncify corruption signatures.
- wxwidgets pointer bump: modal LIFO resolvers, pump resolve-on-error,
sync clipboard IsSupported (014f67e6c1).
Final state: asyncify suite 7/7, wx e2e 291/292 (1 skip), KiCad e2e 40
passed / 2 skipped with ZERO corruption signatures in any log across all
six apps.

Suite went 64 failed → 291 passed / 0 failed:
- Makefile.wasm: compile with -MMD -MP and include .d files — stale objects
relinked against a newer wx lib crashed apps at startup with "function
signature mismatch" after any header/vtable change
- playwright(.coroutine).config.ts: pin the server port for the whole run
(resolvePort from playwright-kicad.config.ts); the 60s freshness window made
workers restarted after a failure rotate to a dead port (ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
cascade across ~50 tests)
- drop legacy-GL testing: KiCad renders via WebGL GAL (gal-webgl.spec.ts);
remove minimal_test's OpenGL tab/GLTestCanvas, opengl.spec.ts, GL z-order
describes, -sLEGACY_GL_EMULATION + gl_immediate_shim.js from the test build,
and the orphaned GL baselines
- coroutine-pthread repro apps join the `all` target (make clean used to delete
them while all never rebuilt them); clean no longer eats checked-in JS like
worker_dom_stub.js
- bump wxwidgets: guard module-eval document access so wx+pthread apps
(threadpool tests) survive Web Worker eval

gated by SHIM_DIAGNOSTICS=1
- apply-asyncify.sh: exclude PCB_EDIT_FRAME::setupUIConditions() from
asyncify instrumentation (V8 cannot run the instrumented huge function
on the rewound ctor stack -> Chrome startup stall; Firefox unaffected)
- DEBUG.md: reusable WASM/asyncify/browser debugging guide, diagnostic

Investigation scaffolding for the Chrome-only KiCad coroutine renderer crash.
Adds isolated reproduction probes exercising the coroutine/Asyncify/fiber layer
under KiCad-like conditions, runnable in BOTH Firefox and system Chrome.
- tests/playwright-coroutine.config.ts + test:coroutine:firefox|chrome npm
scripts: run the coroutine specs in Firefox AND system Chrome (the old e2e
config only used bundled Chromium, which never reproduced the crash).
- tests/apps/standalone/coroutine-pthread/: no-wx + pthreads reproduction probes
(fiber-in-main, nested invoke_/dynCall boundaries, RunMainStack, embind,
main-loop/rAF activation) + worker_dom_stub.js for wx+pthreads builds.
- tests/apps/Makefile.wasm: coroutine-pthread{,-main,-nested,-nested-ex,-wx,
-embind,-mainloop} targets.
- scripts/common/shims/diagnostics.js: add EM_ASYNC_JS handleSleep enter/wake
tracking (DIAG_SLEEP) to detect nested-async at the crash.
Findings (details in research notes): every isolated factor so far — direct /
nested / RunMainStack fiber, wx event loop + all 13 scenarios incl EM_ASYNC_JS,
pthreads, and main-loop/rAF activation — runs CLEAN in system Chrome. The
coroutine/Asyncify layer is exonerated; GL/WebGL is the remaining untested factor
(next). The reliable FF-pass/Chrome-fail repro is still the KiCad pcbnew e2e.

Main-repo side of a multi-part WIP covering the KiCad WASM tool-selection
and nested-Asyncify work. Submodule commits are in kicad@f6e9239aaa
(libcontext hygiene) and wxwidgets@bb80f91e8b (auibar registration +
dialog diagnostics).
## scripts/common/inject-dyncall-shims.sh
Wrap Asyncify.handleSleep / allocateData to save-and-restore Asyncify.currData
around each EM_ASYNC_JS sleep. This fixes the nested Asyncify collision where
a fiber swap that fired during a modal's event loop clobbered currData, and
the modal's later doRewind used the fiber's buffer and hit "RuntimeError:
index out of bounds". Root cause documented as Emscripten Issue #9153
(wontfix upstream).
Diagnostic-rewind logging (forcedBottomOfCallStack, callStack traces) is
retained to help future debugging of Asyncify state corruption.
## tests/
- tests/playwright-kicad.config.ts: add `channel: 'chrome'` for the
chromium project so --project=chromium --headed uses system Chrome
(real GPU) instead of SwiftShader on ARM Mac. Also switch trace to
retain-on-failure + screenshot on-failure for easier E2E debugging.
- tests/kicad/pcbnew.spec.ts: replace `tool.checked` assertions with a
label-suffix check (`[checked]`) since our auibar registration encodes
checked state in the label (no schema change to the registry).
- tests/apps/Makefile.wasm: add `coroutine-nested` build target + include
it in the all: list.
- tests/apps/standalone/coroutine/: kicad_coroutine_harness.h + test app
reproducing KiCad COROUTINE semantics against real libcontext.
- tests/apps/standalone/coroutine-nested/: nested_test.cpp reproduces the
EM_ASYNC_JS-modal + fiber-swap nesting bug in isolation. 8 scenarios
from baseline_modal_alone through nested_fibers_inside_modal.
- tests/e2e/coroutine.spec.ts + coroutine-nested.spec.ts: Playwright specs
that load the standalone apps and assert all case cases pass via
[COROUTINE_TEST] SUMMARY log parsing.
## research/ and features/browser-tools/
Three background docs capturing the investigation trajectory:
- features/browser-tools/0001-kicad-wasm-tool-activation-investigation.md
Early investigation: why tools don't activate; initial dynCall-empty-
callback hypothesis.
- features/browser-tools/0002-wasm-coroutine-deep-dive.md
Deep dive on Asyncify internals, fiber API, QEMU's coroutine-wasm
reference implementation.
- features/browser-tools/0003-wxauitoolbar-registration-fix.md
The narrow fix: why wxAuiToolBar needs a registration block, where to
add it, what the fallback plan is.
- research/threading_1.md: corrected root-cause analysis after reading
runtime logs — nested-Asyncify currData collision, Emscripten #9153.
- research/threading_2.md: extended research on alternative approaches
(JSPI/WasmFX/state-machines) and why they don't help here.
## Submodule pointer updates
kicad: f6e9239aaa (wip: libcontext WASM hygiene cleanup)
wxwidgets: bb80f91e8b (wip: wxAuiToolBar element-registry registration +
dialog diagnostics)
## Open threads not yet in scope
- Firefox/Chrome divergent behavior: "indirect call signature mismatch"
traps in Firefox vs renderer crash in system Chrome (tracked in
plans/peaceful-hugging-pnueli.md and the research docs).
- E2E pixel-diff for Draw Lines fails because the test's diff region does
not cover where the line is actually drawn; tool activation works, the
line is visible in test-results/pcbnew-draw-lines-02-after-drawing.png.
