The increment doc 22 ordered last round. Every entry that can reach a tool coroutine - the four DOM callbacks and the mailbox tick - now goes through the scheduler, so a coroutine is never entered by a star transfer from one path and a direct symmetric swap from another. At D-on all four canvas-tool specs are GREEN and the KiCad suite is 136/3 (was 135/5 before the sleep work, with the tools red throughout). context_sleep's wake learned the mirror lesson: now that the mailbox runs ON a context, it must NOT call drain_all from there (drain refuses re-entry, and should) - it marks ready and lets the outer drain_all perform the entry, with an armed pump as a backstop. Recorded honestly, not papered over: two of the three remaining D-on failures are the timer-park and quasimodal-strand levers, each failing ONE assertion - "scheduler shim observed the concurrent-park window", expected >0, got 0 - while fired/done/parked/errors all pass. That counter needs TWO concurrent in-place Asyncify parks, and the lever stages "timer park x MAIN-LOOP YIELD PARK"; D5 removed the main loop's Asyncify park, so the overlap cannot occur. Re-pinning those levers to the post-migration invariant is a Phase F decision alongside fiber-resume-park's red->green flip, NOT an assert to relax now. Landing state: STAR_DISPATCH=0, kicad 139 passed / 1 (pre-existing occ-probe). Next: Phase E - the K1-K7 bridges are the only in-place parks left under a context, and are exactly what the current()!=0 fallback still tolerates.

WASM Compatibility Layer
This directory contains WASM-specific implementations that allow KiCad to run in a web browser while keeping our KiCad fork as close to upstream as possible.
Principle
Instead of patching KiCad source files, we:
- Provide alternative implementations for platform-specific code (kiplatform)
- Stub out libraries/features that can't work in the browser (libgit2, curl, nng, scripting, 3D viewer, ...)
- Expose KiCad to JavaScript via Embind bindings
- Override host package detection during cross-compilation (cmake find-modules)
The KiCad-side hooks for this are small if(EMSCRIPTEN) branches in KiCad's own
CMakeLists that pull sources from this directory — see "How it's wired" below.

How it's wired
kiplatform — compiled into KiCad
The kiplatform/*.cpp files are added directly to KiCad's kiplatform library by an
if(EMSCRIPTEN) branch in kicad/libs/kiplatform/CMakeLists.txt, which references
them as ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/../wasm/kiplatform/*.cpp. There is no separate
libkiplatform_wasm.a.
stubs — compiled by the build script and KiCad CMakeLists
scripts/kicad/build-kicad-target.sh compiles the C stubs (libgit2_stub.c,
curl_stub.c, nng_stub.c) and force-includes char_traits_uint16_workaround.h.
App-specific *_frame_stub.cpp / *_scripting_stub.cpp are picked up per app, and
the remaining *_stub.cpp files are pulled in by if(EMSCRIPTEN) branches in the
KiCad fork's own CMakeLists. Header stubs under GL/, nng/, ngspice/ are resolved
via include paths.
bindings — per app
build-kicad-target.sh compiles wasm/bindings/<app>_embind.cpp for the app being
built (apps without an embind file get an empty placeholder object).
cmake — module path
build-kicad-target.sh passes -DCMAKE_MODULE_PATH="${PROJECT_ROOT}/wasm/cmake" so
the WASM find-module stubs override host package detection.
Coroutine/fiber support is not in this directory — it comes from the KiCad fork's
kicad/thirdparty/libcontext/libcontext.cpp(LIBCONTEXT_PLATFORM_wasm32). The GLU tesselator comes fromkicad/libs/kimath/glu_tess/glu_tess_impl.cpp.
Adding New Implementations
- Create the implementation file in the appropriate directory (
kiplatform/,stubs/,bindings/). - Wire it in: a stub C file goes in
build-kicad-target.sh; a kiplatform/app source goes in the relevantif(EMSCRIPTEN)branch of the KiCad-side CMakeLists. - Ensure the header interface matches KiCad's expected interface.
- Test with a minimal build before full integration.
