The guest-access guard covers CB bytes times samples (the single-sample layout size alone missed the later sample planes' tile padding), with a test row in that padding. Remove two TechnicalDebt lines duplicated by the rebase, document the guard bound and the unevicted targets, and add the multisampled targets to ARCHITECTURE.md.
sceAgcFuseShaderHalves returns a fused hull as a copy of its back half
(type 7) that is not registered: type 3, no user data, and shader
registers copied to scratch memory with the checksum, RSRC1/RSRC2 and
the LS program address rewritten. sceAgcCreatePrimState accepts only that
type-3 header, and graphics ABI resolution refused it as a replaced
shader header.
SameHeader now also takes a type-3 header as the registered type-7
header for the same code when every other field is equal and its shader
registers differ only in the fused ones. Graphics ABI resolution then
applies the bound header's shader registers over the registered state.
PPSA26344 fuses its hull halves during its loading screen.

Registration prepares the variants a shader's registered state
predicts; a draw or dispatch whose state needs another one threw
"prepared shader artifact is missing for the requested static ABI".
Titles that link their own libSceAgc build that state themselves and
never call the driver's static ABI resolution, so their draws differ
from the registered prediction. The missing artifact is now prepared at use, logged, and kept
with the snapshot like the deferred and null pixel cases. SourceHandleFor
now checks that the request refers to the registered code, as
InvocationFor already did.
Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection (PPSA05684) still misses on
main 197ffac9 (after the fixed push slots of #2661) for its own pixel
shaders: "prepared shader artifact is missing for the requested static
ABI: address=85899411712 stage=5 wave=64 pushOffset=128
pushCapacity=128".
Decodes SOP1 0x21 s_swappc_b64 (link pair = pc + 4) and resolves its call/return pairing through the existing s_setpc_b64 path: static call regions in GraphBuilder and the vertex-entry fetch-shader call inlined from the parsed fetch-shader plan. s_call_b64 (SOPK 0x16) and s_rfe_b64 (SOP1 0x22) throw at decode. Unmodeled cases throw; see docs/dev/TechnicalDebt.md.
Two diagrams in docs/dev/ARCHITECTURE.md: how the relinker and the NID-patched system libraries produce a native program, and the graphics path from command buffers through the shader recompiler to Vulkan. README only gains a link.
