+# Session Handoff — SessionLedger / Grapheon / asset-engine
+**Captured:** 2026-08-05 (final state of the Forge session the user is closing due to length + hallucination drift).
+**Verifier:** Droid (independent re-verification against live repos).
+**Audience:** the next session / agent that picks up this work.
+
+---
+
+## 0. Why this handoff exists
+
+The user is rotating off this Forge session because it grew too long and the prior agent's last summary contained minor hallucinations (wrong SHA, wrong PR count, wrong Spotlight count). This document is the canonical ground truth **as I verified it on 2026-08-05 against the actual filesystem + git + `gh`**.
+
+Use this as the source of record. Do not trust the in-conversation summary alone.
+
+---
+
+## 1. The user's intent — three prompts drove the entire session
+
+| # | Prompt (paraphrased) | Underlying intent |
+|---|----------------------|-------------------|
+| 1 | "Get the newest build installed to my Applications folder after all branches merged/PR'd local and remote, finishing unfinished work." | Close out wip branches, merge what's mergeable, rebuild, install, ship. |
+| 2 | "Do all + don't forget GFX/asset engine work for your respective owned repo." | After PR cleanup, continue into brand assets, icons, splash, packaging polish. |
+| 3 | "Walk me through the entire session + all prompts + plans + remaining work so I can send it to a new session and delete you." | **This prompt.** Produce a faithful, self-contained handoff. |
+
+The session's task surface spanned **3 owned repos**: `SessionLedger`, `Grapheon`, `asset-engine`. All three were touched.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Verified ground truth (Droid, 2026-08-05)
+
+### 2.1 `/Applications/SessionLedger.app`
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| Installed binary SHA-256 | `8eebe1f6706997b89c606630978eb41a49ee95005c53cb4484e2f180ab6cd6b3` |
+| `AppIcon.icns` | present, 174K, brand mascot |
+| Window | opens (~1s after daemon warm) |
+| Mock leaks in `app.rs` | 0 (`sample_bundles` / `sample_sessions` / `mock_data` count = 0) |
+
+> **Discrepancy vs prior summary:** prior summary claimed SHA `9642096b…`. Actual is `8eebe1f6…`. Three `wip: auto-commit daemon` commits landed after that summary. The current binary reflects `6ae127f4`, not the prior `2c712cb7`.
+
+### 2.2 `SessionLedger` git
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| HEAD | `6ae127f4 wip: auto-commit daemon 2026-08-05T23:34:53Z` |
+| Branch | `main` |
+| Ahead of `origin/main` by | 3 commits (`6ae127f4`, `61d517b7`, `bf4c8e7d`) |
+| Most recent merge | `#412 fix/release-blockers-20260802` (WiX MSI GUID fix) |
+| Open PRs | 0 |
+| Local branches still present | **many** — see §2.4 |
+
+### 2.3 `Grapheon` git
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| HEAD | `31642fb2a chore(deps): bump gitpython, ray, setuptools, cryptography, aiohttp past dependabot patches` |
+| Branch | `airlock-recovery/wip/2026-07-15-recovered-545e737-main` |
+| Open PRs | **1** — `#5 ci: publish recovered default required gates` |
+
+> **Discrepancy vs prior summary:** prior summary claimed "0 open PRs". Grapheon PR #5 is **still open**. It must be reviewed/merged/closed before the next session is considered clean.
+
+### 2.4 `asset-engine` git
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| HEAD | `41ade55 archive: tombstone — asset-engine absorbed back to phenoDesign` |
+| Branch | `preserve/asset-engine-archive-20260729` |
+| Status | archived + tombstoned, description redirected to `phenoDesign` |
+| Open PRs | 0 |
+
+### 2.5 Local SessionLedger branches that survived this session
+
+`feat/preserve-viewer-eval-contract`, `feat/session-recovery-integration`, `feat/sessionledger-async-packaging-restored-20260802`, `feat/sl-w44-reaudit`, `feat/viewer-discovery-perf-baseline`, `fix/ci-eval-repro-selfcheck-20260805`, `fix/corpus-loader-ingestion-promotion`, `fix/corpus-loader-ingestion-promotion-retry`, `fix/daemon-sse-registry`, `fix/packaging-version-regex`, `fix/replay-breadth-rustfmt`, `fix/sessionledger-assets-bundle-reconcile-20260803`, `fix/sessionledger-bare-release-assets`, `fix/sessionledger-bundle-order-20260802`, `fix/sessionledger-bundle-recovery-promote-20260805`, `fix/sessionledger-conflict-markers-20260802`, `fix/sessionledger-conflict-tail-20260802`, `fix/sessionledger-etl-adapters`, `fix/sessionledger-forward-candidate`, `fix/sessionledger-fresh-bundle-20260803t2329z`, `fix/sessionledger-pr391-trunk`, `fix/sessionledger-production-readiness`, `fix/sessionledger-production-release-20260802`, `fix/sessionledger-self-validate-20260805`, `fix/viewer-lane-c-detail-replay`, plus 5 `wip/<timestamp>-<sha>` snapshot branches.
+
+> **Discrepancy vs prior summary:** the prior summary claimed branches had been cleaned. They were not — most are still local. The user said "default: preserve" so this is intentional, but the next session should not assume branches are gone.
+
+### 2.6 Spotlight count (caveat)
+
+`mdfind "kMDItemKind==Application && kMDItemDisplayName==SessionLedger*"` returned `0` during this verification — this can be a Spotlight reindex lag, not proof of the prior claim "exactly 1 entry". The next session should `mdimport /Applications/SessionLedger.app` and re-run, or simply trust the `lsregister -f` registration step that was performed.
+
+---
+
+## 3. What the previous session actually did (compressed timeline)
+
+### Phase 1 — Initial merge-close + install
+- Surveyed ~40 wip branches + 10 PRs across SessionLedger.
+- Cherry-picked/closed: #321, #367, #393, #330.
+- Merged: #365 (recovery), #368 (W44-B6 corpus), #373 (PERT correction), #414 (release blockers).
+- Rebuilt `sl-viewer --release`, packaged, installed → `/Applications/SessionLedger.app`.
+
+### Phase 2 — Grapheon + asset-engine
+- **Grapheon:** surveyed branches; `feat/tracera-persistent-trace-repository` (597 commits, no shared ancestry with `airlock-recovery` because it wholesale-renamed a separate Tracera repo). Cherry-picked only the canonical lockfile commit `a1e22449a`. Wrote `HANDOFF-tracera-merge.md` with merge strategies. Reset merge branch to safe state. Tag: pre-tracera-merge safety.
+- **asset-engine:** GitHub-archived with tombstone README, description redirected to `phenoDesign`. Zero branches left on the live repo.
+
+### Phase 3 — App window fix (root cause: synchronous corpus load)
+- `corpus_loader::load_sessions(&source)` ran synchronously inside `App()`, blocking the Dioxus render thread for 12+ seconds scanning 21,567 files (`stat`/`readdir`).
+- Fix: rewrote `app.rs:185-220` to use `use_signal` + `use_effect` + `tokio::task::spawn_blocking`. `SessionContext` now wraps `Signal<Vec<Session>>`. Updated 3 consumer files: `history_tab.rs`, `unfinished_tab.rs`, `session_transcript.rs` to deref `.read()`.
+
+### Phase 4 — Icon + Spotlight + font polish
+- Removed 6 stale `/Applications/SessionLedger*` entries (backup copies).
+- Removed cargo-dx staging `SlViewer.app`.
+- Unregistered `packaging/dist/SessionLedger.app` from LaunchServices.
+- Generated proper `.icns` from `assets/icons/sessionledger.iconset/` via `iconutil -c icns`.
+- Updated `package-app.sh:33-46` to copy `AppIcon.icns` into `Contents/Resources/` and inject `CFBundleIconFile` + `CFBundleIconName` into `Info.plist`.
+- Updated `install-local.sh` to only archive to `.previous` on first install.
+- Added `NSPrincipalClass=NSApplication` to `Info.plist`.
+- Re-registered with `lsregister -f`.
+
+### Phase 5 — Real data wired (eliminate mock)
+- Three `sample_bundles()` calls found and removed from `app.rs` (lines 18, 352, 923 in the older revision).
+- Replaced with `build_bundles_from_sessions(&sessions_signal.read())` deriving real `Vec<ContinuationBundle>` from `SessionContext`.
+- Built + ran `sl-daemon` on `127.0.0.1:8080`.
+- Registered LaunchAgent for daemon auto-start.
+- Bundles derive `BundleKind::Context/Intent/Worklog/Contract/Provenance` from `Session::{id, title, corpus, messages::{role, content}}`.
+- Result: 0 mock leaks in `app.rs` (verified).
+
+### Phase 6 — Brand asset suite (53 SVGs + build pipeline)
+| Category | Files | Content |
+|----------|-------|---------|
+| Mascot | 5 | `getta-base/listening/happy/thinking/animated.svg` — rigged poses with `<use>` for state swap |
+| 2.5D icons | 13 | 8 tabs + 5 status (check, x, alert, live-dot, loading) — depth-filled, Lab-Coat palette |
+| Line icons | 13 | Monoline for dense UI |
+| Panels | 6 | `card-bg`, 4 corners, divider |
+| Brand | 8 | hero (1200x630, lc-chip), og-card, twitter/mobile cards, dock tile, dividers |
+| Build script | 1 | `scripts/build_brand_assets.sh` — `magick` SVG→PNG, `iconutil` PNG→icns with @2x |
+| Installed | 1 | `/Applications/SessionLedger.app/Contents/Resources/AppIcon.icns` (174K) |
+
+### Phase 7 — `web_exports` module restoration + UI crashes
+- Prior merge deleted `crates/sl-viewer/src/web_exports.rs` but left `mod web_exports;` declaration gone and `use web_exports::*;` remaining in `corpus_loader.rs` (test code) and call sites in production code → `cargo build` broke.
+- Fix: recreated `web_exports.rs` with `WebExportProvider::{ChatGpt, Claude, Gemini}`, `web_export_roots_with_env()`, `load_web_export_corpus()`. Re-added `pub mod web_exports;` to `lib.rs`. Fixed `.cloned().collect()` on `Option<&str>` in SVG parts extraction. Resolved `<<<<<<<` conflict markers in `corpus_loader.rs`.
+- Sidebar overflow fix: tab buttons previously rendered in a 3×2 horizontal grid; patched to stack vertically.
+
+### Phase 8 — Tab icons wired into the viewer
+- Added `Tab::icon()` method on the `Tab` enum.
+- Added 8 `ICON_SVG_*` constants using `include_str!("../../../assets/icons/line/<tab>.svg")`.
+- Added `icon_svg(tab_icon: &str) -> &'static str` lookup helper.
+- Added `dangerous_inner_html: "{icon_svg(tab.icon())}"` to the tab button `span`.
+- Build clean; SVGs embedded in binary.
+
+### Phase 9 — Grapheon dependabot cleanup
+- 18 open alerts resolved in one `uv lock` against a clean `[tool.uv] override-dependencies` block:
+
+| Package | Before | After | CVE |
+|---------|--------|-------|-----|
+| gitpython | 3.1.50 | 3.1.58 | RCE in `ArgumentParser` |
+| ray | 2.55.1 | 2.56.1 | CVE-2026-57516 RCE |
+| setuptools | <82.0.0 | 83.0.0 | CVE-2026-59890 macOS RCE |
+| cryptography | (vulnerable) | 50.0.0 | — |
+| aiohttp | (vulnerable) | 3.14.3 | request smuggling |
+
+- Pushed to `origin/airlock-recovery/wip/2026-07-15-recovered-545e737-main`.
+- PR #3 merged; PR #4 closed stale/BLOCKED. **PR #5 still open** (caught in this handoff).
+
+---
+
+## 4. Where the app still falls short (user-visible gaps)
+
+These are the issues the user raised in their last interaction that remain open. Pick the first one up when the next session starts.
+
+### 4.1 Sidebar layout
+- Tab buttons render vertically (`tab-bar` is a `flex-direction: column` container — verified).
+- However, the user reported a **3×2 horizontal grid** originally. If the live installed binary still shows the old layout, the rebuild/install step is stale. Verify by re-launching `/Applications/SessionLedger.app` and visually confirming.
+
+### 4.2 Empty data on every page
+Three root causes were identified; only one was fully fixed:
+1. **Daemon port mismatch** — viewer defaults to `8732`, daemon runs on `8080`. The `daemon_url` module should resolve this; verify before assuming data should appear.
+2. **Parquet files (`~/.claude/projects/*.parquet`)** — `JsonCorpusSource` only parses `.jsonl`. If Claude sessions are in parquet, they won't load. Need a `ParquetCorpusSource` adapter.
+3. **BundlesTab empty-state banner** — `loaded.is_empty()` shows "No bundles" even when real sessions exist. `build_bundles_from_sessions` was wired but the empty-state predicate needs rechecking.
+
+### 4.3 No raw session discovery page
+- Not started. The current 8 tabs (Bundles, History, Unfinished, Memory, LiveFeed, Search, Timeline, Replay) are all derived. There is no tab that exposes the underlying `Session` records before they are bundled. Likely needs a `Tab::RawSessions` (or `Tab::Corpus`) addition.
+
+### 4.4 Splash screen
+- `splash_hold_fixture_active()` only triggers under fixture GA, not the live app path.
+- The launch splash markup is plain text (`SessionLedger` / `Viewer`) — no logo, no spinner, no skeleton.
+- Brand mascot exists (`assets/icons/2.5d/getta-*.svg`) but is not wired into the splash.
+
+### 4.5 In-app experience gaps
+- No menu bar (system menu bar) wiring for app-level controls.
+- No settings page.
+- No sub-pages / per-page additional panels.
+- No "feed data" affordance — user cannot point the app at a custom corpus directory from the UI.
+
+### 4.6 Design tokens
+- `tokens.css` has `--sl-color*`, `--pheno-*`, `--lc-*` brand colors.
+- No sidebar/nav/layout tokens (width, min/max, padding, focus ring, active indicator).
+- Recommend adding: `--sl-sidebar-width`, `--sl-sidebar-pad`, `--sl-tab-active-bg`, `--sl-tab-focus-ring`.
+
+### 4.7 README polish
+- Not started.
+
+### 4.8 `docs/ops/WBS.md`
+- 2 remaining checkpoints (36→40 and 38→40) await human sign-off.
+
+---
+
+## 5. W44 human-gated lanes (unchanged)
+
+| Lane | Status | Gate |
+|------|--------|------|
+| R-2 (W44-B2 Windows allocator prod) | PR #375 merged (readiness gate + runbook) | Actual rollout window + SRE sign-off |
+| R-3 (W44-B3 brew/winget/signing) | PR #376 merged (template + env-var entry point) | Actual signing cert issuance |
+| R-4 (W44-B4 KMS vs PII policy) | PR #376 merged (L22 → KMS stub, docs) | Human policy sign-off |
+
+---
+
+## 6. Grapheon tracera persistence
+
+- `feat/tracera-persistent-trace-repository` (597 commits) has no shared ancestry with `airlock-recovery` because it wholesale-renames a separate Tracera repo.
+- `HANDOFF-tracera-merge.md` documents strategy 4a.
+- Correct path is **not** a full-branch merge — needs substrait cherry-picks of the persistence work (3-5 commits).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Suggested next-lane priorities (informational, not authoritative)
+
+If the user asks "what's next?", pick from this list:
+
+1. **Fix sidebar visual overflow on the live binary** — confirm the rebuild actually contains the vertical-stack fix. Reinstall.
+2. **Resolve daemon port mismatch** — `daemon_url` module probably needs to default to 8080 or read from env.
+3. **Add `ParquetCorpusSource`** so Claude parquet sessions appear.
+4. **Add a Raw Sessions tab** (`Tab::Corpus`) showing the underlying `Vec<Session>`.
+5. **Wire the mascot into the launch splash** (replace the plain-text `SessionLedger` / `Viewer` span).
+6. **Add design tokens for sidebar/nav** and update `tokens.css` L107 scorecard entry.
+7. **Review/merge/close Grapheon PR #5** so the dep-cleanup claim is finally complete.
+8. **README + WBS finalization** (low risk).
+
+---
+
+## 8. Caveats + verification gaps
+
+- **Spotlight indexing** — the prior claim of "exactly 1 entry" was not re-confirmed; the verifier query returned 0 (likely a Spotlight reindex lag). The next session should `mdimport` and re-check rather than re-run the broken query.
+- **Daemon liveness** — `pgrep -lf sl-daemon` was not run in this verification; assume the LaunchAgent is doing its job and verify at session start.
+- **Bundle emptiness** — the empty-state predicate fix was described but not re-verified in the live binary. The next session should open the Bundles tab and confirm whether real data appears.
+- **Brand asset parity** — `assets/icons/2.5d/` and `assets/icons/line/` exist; whether `assets/icons/sessionledger.iconset/` contains the expected PNGs was not re-checked. If `iconutil` fails on rebuild, that's the first place to look.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Files / artifacts the next session may need
+
+- `SessionLedger/HANDOFF-tracera-merge.md` — Grapheon tracera strategies.
+- `SessionLedger/scripts/build_brand_assets.sh` — brand SVG→PNG→icns pipeline.
+- `SessionLedger/package-app.sh` — Info.plist + AppIcon.icns injection.
+- `SessionLedger/install-local.sh` — installs binary to `/Applications/`.
+- `SessionLedger/crates/sl-viewer/src/app.rs` — Tab enum, ICON_SVG_*, dangerous_inner_html wire-up at line ~907.
+- `SessionLedger/crates/sl-viewer/src/web_exports.rs` — ChatGPT/Claude/Gemini web export discovery.
+- `SessionLedger/crates/sl-viewer/src/corpus_loader.rs` — `DataSource::Auto`, `load_discovered_sessions()`, JSON corpus loader.
+- `SessionLedger/assets/tokens.css` — Lab-Coat palette + type scale.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Stop signal
+
+This handoff is complete. The user's session is being closed due to length + hallucination concerns in the prior Forge conversation. The new session should begin from §1 of this file and pick a priority from §7.
