* feat(native): search analyzed memory for masked byte patterns
The diff adds search_bytes to the CLI, the shared MCP contract, Ghidra
inventory, and the headless bridge, and advertises the same operation on
Hopper as unavailable until that provider is verified. Patterns are
hexadecimal byte pairs with optional ?? wildcards and an optional
equal-length bit mask; the TypeScript boundary and the bridge both
require a nonempty pattern, equal lengths, and at least one constrained
bit. Ghidra walks initialized blocks in address order within inclusive
bounds, keeps overlapping matches inside a single block, and returns
each hit with its segment, unique source file offset, and containing
procedure, continuing through a cursor bound to the target, profile,
pattern, mask, and bounds. Each page reports the inclusive ranges
examined and the skipped uninitialized blocks; cancellation returns a
typed error and discards the active Ghidra database.
address_to_file_offset now uses the same unique-offset helper, which
rejects a mapping that is missing, ambiguous, or larger than a safe
integer.
* fix(native): limit unbounded byte search to loaded memory
Without start or end, search_bytes walked every Ghidra block, including
non-loaded file parts such as .symtab and overlay blocks, which the docs
call out of scope. Unbounded searches now skip those blocks and list them
in searched.skipped_not_loaded; explicit bounds in their address space
still search them. Document that a match must end at or before end.
* fix(native): preserve implicit address spaces in range consumers
* fix(native): reject present malformed byte search state

* feat(evidence): discover retained records without full payloads
* fix(evidence): guide oversized results to retained discovery
* style(tests): format retained discovery recovery assertion
Add optional finalization_ms to keep observing a captured root after SIGTERM, record the actual finalizer exit and each signal attempt, and escalate once when needed. Bind the initial root identity to captured ownership and preserve observations through cleanup uncertainty.
Fixes#1253.

Preserve native document identity, nullable bookmark labels, address diagnostics, segment-end byte prefixes, and verified file mappings. Validate batch rename addresses before mutation.
BREAKING CHANGE: remove set_current_document. Use open_binary to switch targets; document arguments are scoped to the active target.
* fix(contracts)!: require absolute local paths for remaining caller-supplied file inputs
Follow-up to the session snapshot/export tightening: the same invisible server-cwd resolution applied to open_binary target paths (parseBinaryTarget(path, process.cwd())), import_evidence_bundle bundle reads, firmware input files (resolve(raw)), browser executable launch paths (resolve-then-spawn), Electron executable/application/root paths (realpath on raw input), and the expected server path check.
Each field gains the shared isAbsoluteLocalPath refinement plus a catalog-visible description, since JSON Schema cannot express the rule. Examples, scenario fixtures, and contract tests updated to absolute paths; new schema cases cover rejection/acceptance/omission per field.
Explicitly unchanged (verified rooted or out of scope): inspect_plist paths (resolved against the target bundle dir), firmware output_directory (already provider-enforced), filesystem observation paths (resolved against the caller-supplied working_directory), keyed-archive member paths (archive-relative), JS evidence member paths (evidence-relative under root_alias), provider-internal execution schemas, CLI-only doctor flows, and CLI options (own resolve against the operator cwd).
* fix(cli): resolve operator-relative paths before shared absolute-path validation
The contract tightening rejects relative paths, but three CLI commands forward operator-relative input into the shared schemas: firmware commands pass raw args to FirmwareAnalysisService, and the Electron/browser scenario commands validate parsed scenario JSON directly. CLI paths are relative to the operator shell, so resolve them against the working directory first: resolve() in firmwareCommands, and a shared resolveCliJsonPaths JSON key-path helper (cliJsonInput) applied in electronCommands and cliBrowserScenarioCommands. MCP behavior is unchanged — MCP callers must still send absolute paths.
Covers the regression with a relative-path firmware CLI acceptance test (asserts provider-stage capability_unavailable, not a validation error) and unit tests for the helper.
* feat(ghidra): edit function annotations atomically
Return annotation readback and refreshed function analysis through CLI and MCP. Own each database transaction, invalidate caches and immutable snapshots, preserve executable bytes, and retain the Windows mutation boundary.

* fix(ghidra): preserve qualified function annotation identity
Preserve namespaces during local name writes and match qualified readback to the refreshed dossier. Add a producer-shaped regression and verify a real namespaced C++ function through the CLI.

* test(ghidra): align verification with annotation authority
Keep strict capability and profile checks while admitting the explicit session metadata operation. Verify packaged transport authority and atomic transaction commitments and preserve a read-only Windows expectation.

* fix(hopper): report unavailable procedure body coverage
* refactor!: simplify runtime tools and remove replay engines
Keep direct inspection, capture, and comparison tools. Bind handlers to named contracts and let agents compose experiments with commands and local fixture servers.
BREAKING CHANGE: Remove controlled replay, Node characterization, finite replay-machine, managed runtime planning, and redundant string-tracing tools. Retire process replay, shims, reactive scenarios, custom checkpoints, and active browser replay and origin-scope inputs.
Add immutable session bundle snapshots, bounded resource discovery, paginated unknowns, mutable current analysis snapshots, and provider-neutral navigation/address context tools.
BREAKING CHANGE: export_evidence_bundle now requires a filesystem path and no longer returns an inline bundle.
BREAKING CHANGE: comparison tools now require session-owned Evidence IDs or approved bundle paths, and structured Evidence results use compact references.
