romanett 414957c88a Reduce ISubscription: internalize the publish pipeline, delete the dead members (#4349)
# Description

Reduces the server subscription API surface per the measurements from
issue #4185.

## ISubscription: 42 → 30 members (#4185)

A call-site census of the 11 "publish-pipeline protocol" members plus
`Publish` (all 68 `src/` projects, samples, tools, fuzzing, tests) found
**zero callers outside `Opc.Ua.Server`** and split the members three
ways:

- **Deleted (4):** `ItemReadyToPublish` and `ItemNotificationsAvailable`
were dead — zero callers repo-wide and implementation bodies commented
out since before 1.5.378 — the obsolete parameterless `SessionClosed()`
had zero callers, and `TransferSessionAsync` (the one-shot direct
transfer, which bypassed the reservation protecting a transfer against a
concurrently closing source session) lost its last caller once the
manager always uses the claim/prepare/commit protocol.
- **Internalized (8):** `PublishTimerExpired`, `Acknowledge`,
`PublishTimeout`, `SubscriptionTransferred`,
`AvailableSequenceNumbersForRetransmission`, `QueueOverflowHandler`,
`SessionClosed(ISession)` and `Publish` move to `internal interface
ISubscriptionPublishPipeline : ISubscription`, implemented
**explicitly** by `Subscription` (the
`ISubscriptionMonitoredItemLifecycle` shape) so they are unreachable
through the public concrete class too. `Publish` goes with them
deliberately — it is the same hazard class (consumes notifications,
advances sequence numbers) with the same single production caller.
- **Kept public (1):** `ResendData` drops out of the issue's list — its
only caller is the `Server_ResendData` UA-method handler in
`DiagnosticsNodeManager`, resolving via `TryGetSubscription` like
`GetMonitoredItems` does. It is service-facing, not pipeline.

## The pipeline contract is complete: SessionPublishQueue traffics only
in it

`SessionPublishQueue` becomes `internal sealed` (zero consumers outside
the assembly; `SentMessageQueue` already was) and works **solely with
`ISubscriptionPublishPipeline`** — no `ISubscription` and no concrete
`Subscription` anywhere in the file. To get there, the internal
transfer-claim protocol (`TryBeginTransfer`,
`PrepareSessionTransferAsync`, `CompleteTransfer`, `AbortTransfer`,
`TryRestoreSessionAfterFailedTransfer`) moved from `internal` methods on
the concrete class onto the internal interface, implemented explicitly.

That completes the contract, so `TransferSubscriptionsAsync` loses its
two-tier shape: the ~6 `subscription as Subscription` null-guard
branches and the degraded `TransferSessionAsync` fallback for
non-`Subscription` implementations are gone — one code path, always the
claim/prepare/commit/rollback protocol, and
`ISubscription.TransferSessionAsync` is deleted with it. Subscription
creation fails with `Bad_InternalError` when a `CreateSubscription`
override returns a type not derived from `Subscription`, instead of
publishing partially — such implementations were already second-class
(transfer required the concrete type before this change). This is the
headline behavior change for exotic extenders and is documented
prominently in `docs/migrate/2.0.x/sessions-subscriptions.md`.

The durable-subscription open question in the issue is answered **no**:
`Subscription/Persistence/` never references `ISubscription` (the store
deals in `IStoredSubscription` DTOs; restore constructs the concrete
type via `Subscription.RestoreAsync` inside the manager), so the
internalization cannot break a store implementer.

## #4186: measured, prototyped, and deliberately kept as-is

Body inspection showed only 4 of the 10 `ISubscriptionManager` wrappers
are pure lookup-and-delegate (`Republish`, `SetTriggering`,
`ModifyMonitoredItemsAsync`, `SetMonitoringModeAsync` — one caller
each); the other 6 carry logic with no `ISubscription` substitute. A
collapse of the four was implemented and then reverted on this branch:
it traded ten uniform id-addressed members for a mixed dispatch shape in
`StandardServer` without reducing what a reader must understand. **Every
subscription service keeps going through `ISubscriptionManager`**; the
wrapper bodies now resolve against the pipeline-typed registry. The
decision is recorded in `plans/ServerRuntimeAnalysis.md` (open question
5).

## Compatibility treatment

Removals are outright, per the documented no-`[Obsolete]`-shim policy
for these interfaces (`docs/MigrationGuide.md` — re-adding an interface
member would break every implementer; net48/netstandard2.0 have no
default interface methods). In its place:

- Migration analyzer **UA0030** (pipeline members +
`SessionPublishQueue`, distinguishing deleted no-ops from internalized
protocol), with tests, following the UA0024 syntax-based pattern. The
transfer-claim members were never public in 1.5.378, so they need no
migration story.
- `docs/MigrationGuide.md#ua0030` section with before/after code; the
`docs/migrate/2.0.x/sessions-subscriptions.md` section that told
implementers to *add* `SessionClosed(ISession)` is replaced with the
derive-from-`Subscription` story; the 2.0.x README symptom table routes
the rule.
- All 11 removed/internalized members existed in 1.5.378 (verified
against `master378`), so each is documented as a 2.0 break.

## Tests

Converted, not deleted. `Mock<ISubscription>` setups of pipeline members
become `Mock<ISubscriptionPublishPipeline>` — Moq proxies the internal
interface via a new `InternalsVisibleTo("DynamicProxyGenAssembly2")`
(keyless; the SDK appends `$(PublicKey)` under `SignAssembly`, and
signed pipelines do not run tests, matching the existing
`Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Kubernetes` precedent). A test-side extension shim
forwards the original member names (pipeline + transfer protocol) so the
direct call sites on concrete `Subscription` instances compile
unchanged. The transfer-race tests' typed reflection probes into
`m_abandonedSubscriptions` follow the field's new type.

- `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` (net10.0): 4795 tests, 0 failures
- `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests`, `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Durable.Tests`,
`Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Classic.Tests` (net10.0): green
- `Opc.Ua.MigrationAnalyzer.Tests`: green incl. the new UA0030 tests
- net48 gate: solution build green; subscription-area fixtures green
(the known pre-existing local hosting-test environment failures
reproduce identically on unmodified master)

**not** taken (see the section above); the decision is recorded in

romanett 14fba2d120 Fix instance TypeDefinition across dependency ModelDesign boundaries (#4355)
# Description

The model source generator crashed with `MODELGEN003` /
`NullReferenceException` whenever a `ModelDesign` instantiated an
`ObjectType` (or `VariableType`) declared in a **dependency** design
file, as soon as that type had children. The sibling of #4332 on the
instance-declaration path: #4335 linked dependency *data types*, but an
*instance* whose `TypeDefinition` lives in another design still crashed
in `NodeStateGenerator` on the type's inherited children.

Root cause: dependency design files load with `validateDictionary:
false`, so `ValidateInstance` / `ValidateType` never ran on them and
their types' children kept `TypeDefinitionNode` / `DataTypeNode` at
`null`. When the target instance merged those children into its
hierarchy (`BuildInstanceHierarchy` re-walks the dependency type's
`Children.Items`), the null references were copied along, and
`GetNodeStateClassName` dereferenced them while building the node state
factory list.

Changes:

- A new best-effort `LinkDependencyInstances` pass in
`ModelDesignValidator` links dependency-design instances the way
`ValidateInstance` / `ValidateType` do for the target model: the
`TypeDefinitionNode` / `DataTypeNode` of the types' children and
standalone instances (recursively), variable `DataType` / `ValueRank`
inheritance from the variable type, `DefaultValue` decoding,
`VariableTypeDesign.DataTypeNode` restrictions, and method arguments —
including creation of the `InputArguments` / `OutputArguments` argument
properties so method children materialise into the target hierarchy
exactly like local ones. Resolution is best effort (unresolvable
references stay `null`) and NodeSet2 dependencies remain excluded,
consistent with `LinkDependencyDataTypes`.
- The pass runs alongside `LinkDependencyDataTypes`: for upstream
dependencies after all of them are loaded and before the target
validates (so the hierarchy merge picks up the links), and for
downstream dependencies after they load.
- `docs/ModelDependencies.md` documents the instance linking.

Tests (all verified to fail with the exact reported NRE stack before the
fix):

- `CrossModelInstanceTypeDefinitionTests` (Core, 4 tests): the issue's
minimal repro end to end; an equivalence test asserting the cross-model
instance emits the **identical node-state factory set** as a locally
declared type (this is the issue's stated expectation, and it drove the
method-argument-property part of the fix); the flipped
upstream/downstream ordering; and validator-level assertions that the
merged hierarchy carries linked `TypeDefinitionNode` / `DataTypeNode`
references, including the data type inherited from a dependency
`VariableType`.
- `CrossModelInstanceTypeDefinitionGeneratorTests` (Roslyn driver, 2
tests): the issue's csproj repro shape — both `AdditionalFiles`
orderings, asserting no diagnostics and that the combined generated
output of both models **compiles** (the instance factories reference the
dependency model's typed state classes).

Verified locally on net10.0: `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` 3800
passed, `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` 141 passed,
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Tests` 94 passed; 0-warning Release build
of `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` (all TFMs incl. netstandard2.0);
`dotnet format whitespace --verify-no-changes` clean.

This removes the last generator blocker for source generating the
instance model of the `Workshop/DataTypes` sample
(OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard-Samples#814): its `ParkingLot` /
`DriverOfTheMonth` are instances of types declared in the other design
file.

romanett 24ba4855e6 Fix [DataType] generator Clone() dropping every inherited field of a derived structure (#4354)
# Description

The `[DataType]` source generator emitted a `Clone()` that created a
fresh instance and copied only the fields declared on the annotated type
itself, so every field inherited from an `IEncodeable` base was silently
dropped. Since the server clones node values while loading an address
space, a derived structure served by a node manager came back out of a
Read with its inherited fields empty, even though encode/decode was
correct.

This PR makes the `[DataType]` path emit the same
`MemberwiseClone`-based shape as the model-based generator:

```csharp
/// <inheritdoc/>
public override object Clone()
{
    return (DerivedStruct)this.MemberwiseClone();
}

/// <inheritdoc/>
public new object MemberwiseClone()
{
    DerivedStruct clone = (DerivedStruct)base.MemberwiseClone();
    // deep copy of the own reference-typed fields
    return clone;
}
```

`Clone()` delegates to a generated `public new object MemberwiseClone()`
that starts from `base.MemberwiseClone()` — a shallow copy of the whole
object, inherited fields included — and then deep copies the type's own
reference-typed fields (encodeables, `DataValue`, `Variant`,
`ExtensionObject`). Derived classes hide `MemberwiseClone` and chain
into the base implementation, so deep-copy semantics compose across the
hierarchy, including across assemblies into model-generated base types
(the `BicycleType` scenario that surfaced this). The two generator paths
now agree.

Because the clone now starts from a full shallow copy
(`base.MemberwiseClone()` for classes, `with { }` for records), the
per-field clone emitter only writes the deep-copy assignments; the
redundant per-field plain copies are gone. This also fixes a latent side
bug in the class path: init-only simple fields were silently dropped by
the fresh-instance clone as well.

Records were already correct (`with { }` carries every field) and are
unchanged in shape.

Tests:

- `GenerateClassCloneUsesMemberwiseClone` /
`GenerateDerivedClassCloneCarriesInheritedState` assert the emitted
shape for root and derived classes.
- `DerivedClassCloneKeepsInheritedFields` runs the exact repro from the
issue through the Roslyn driver, emits the assembly, and executes
`Clone()` at runtime to prove the inherited field survives (verified on
net10.0 and net48).

Verified locally: `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` (3798 passed),
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` (140 passed),
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Tests` (94 passed), and
`Opc.Ua.Client.Tests` (2161 passed, exercises the regenerated in-tree
`[DataType]` record types). The in-tree `[DataType]` consumers
(Opc.Ua.Client, both GDS common projects) regenerate and build without
warnings.

romanett 766c5558e8 Fix structure subtyping across dependency ModelDesign boundaries (#4335)
# Description

The model source generator crashed whenever a `ModelDesign` declared a
structure that subtypes a structure from **another** design file
(`MODELGEN003` with a `NullReferenceException`), and the cross-assembly
`[assembly: ModelDependency]` flow failed even earlier with `The
BaseType reference ... is not the expected type: DataTypeDesign`.
Structure inheritance across model boundaries — the primary use case of
companion-spec layering — could not be source-generated at all.

Three root causes, all in the dependency-loading path of the validator:

1. **Dependency design files were never linked.** They load with
`validateDictionary: false`, so their `DataTypeDesign`s kept
`BasicDataType` at the enum default (`Boolean`) and their fields'
`DataTypeNode` stayed `null`. `BinarySchemaGenerator`'s inherited-field
merge then dereferenced the null `DataTypeNode`, and
`XmlSchemaGenerator` / `DataTypeGenerator` silently emitted `xs:boolean`
/ `bool` from the default classification.
2. **Dependencies that import the target crashed at load.** Each
generation group receives every design file of the compilation as a
dependency, including downstream models that import the group's target —
those loaded *before* the target they import and failed resolving their
`BaseType`. This produced the confusing
`AdditionalFiles`-order-dependent failure modes.
3. **The payload flow never reached ModelDesign targets.**
`ModelCompilation` supplied `referencedDependencies` only to the
NodeSet2 pass, never to the design-file pass, and payload-materialised
data types lacked the classification and field links needed to serve as
base types of local structures.

Changes:

- `ModelDesignValidator.ValidateModel` loads dependencies in two phases
around the target: upstream models first (topological, referenced models
before their referrers), then the target, then models that import the
target.
- A new `LinkDependencyDataTypes` pass classifies dependency data types
(`IsStructure` / `IsEnumeration` / `BasicDataType`) and resolves field
`DataTypeNode` / `Parent` best effort. It runs for payload-imported
declarations and upstream design-file dependencies before target
validation, and for downstream dependencies after they load. NodeSet2
dependencies are excluded — `NodeSetToModelDesign` already links and
classifies them with its own semantics.
- Payloads for models that are backed by a design file in the
compilation are skipped — the explicit file is authoritative
(previously, importing both crashed with duplicate symbolic ids).
- Payload-materialised data types honor the payload's `IsEnumeration`
flag.
- The design-file `GenerateCode` pass now receives the referenced
assemblies' dependency payloads (`ModelCompilation` + new optional
`referencedDependencies` parameter).
- `docs/ModelDependencies.md` updated accordingly.

Tests (all verified to fail with the exact reported errors before the
fix):

- `CrossModelStructureSubtypeTests` (Core, 6 tests): the issue's minimal
repro end to end — asserting the emitted `.bsd` carries inherited fields
with correct types and `SourceType`, the `.xsd` extends the dependency
structure (not `xs:boolean`), and the generated C# derives correctly —
plus the reversed target/dependency order, both payload flows at
generation and validator level, and a three-level chain (target →
payload structure → design-file structure).
- `CrossModelStructureSubtypeGeneratorTests` (Roslyn driver, 3 tests):
both `AdditionalFiles` orderings compiling the generated output, and the
full cross-assembly flow (producer assembly generated from the upstream
design; consumer resolves the base structure from the reference's
payload without re-emitting it).

Verified locally on net10.0: `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` 3786
passed, `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` 135 passed,
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Tests` 94 passed; 0-warning Release
builds of `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` (all TFMs incl.
netstandard2.0), both Roslyn generator variants, Stack and Tester.

This unblocks the `[NodeManager]` migration of the DataTypes workshop
sample (OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard-Samples#757).

Marc Schier cef83550cb OPC UA Vision: a vision-guided bin-picking demo an LLM agent can see and drive (#4235)
# Description

Implements **OPC UA — Vision** and uses it to build the demo the
companion specifications were drafted for: an eye-in-hand camera watches
a bin of parts, a language model *looks at the frame*, decides which
part matches the instruction, and commands the robot through Robot
Intent — with the OpenUSD viewer showing the arm move and the bin empty
out.

> **Draft, and stacked.**
[#4195](https://github.com/OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard/pull/4195) has
merged and master is merged in, so what is left on top of `master` is
the Vision work plus the unmerged `marcschier/ai-model-management`
branch, which the demo needs for the model/dataset/deployment
provenance. Review the Vision commits; the AI Model Management work
lands with its own PR.

## What is here

**The specification, implemented.** `Opc.Ua.Vision` is generated from
the spec's own `Opc.Ua.Vision.NodeSet2.xml`, vendored byte-identically
(SHA-256 `79C592C6…`, verified against a fresh download and stored
LF-preserved like the Robot Intent NodeSet). `Opc.Ua.Vision.Server`
builds the §4.2 discovery object, sensors, the coordinate-frame tree,
calibrations, media endpoints, inference pipelines and the §9 feedback
methods, with rendering and inference behind injectable providers.
`Opc.Ua.Vision.Client` is built on the generated ObjectType proxies and
composes transforms across the frame tree, which is what turns a
detection in camera coordinates into a pose a robot can act on.

**Two perception paths behind one contract**, which is exactly what
`InferenceLocationEnum` is for. `OnServer` is a deterministic detector
derived from the stage's ground truth — no model, no network, no GPU, so
CI can exercise the whole loop. `EdgeOffServer` is the agent: it sees
the frame over MCP and calls `SubmitDetections`, and the Server
publishes results it did not compute. A client reads
`DetectionResultType` identically either way.

**The agent's eyes.** `tools/Opc.Ua.Mcp.Vision` adds 22 `vision_*`
tools, which with the four shared connection tools makes the `vision`
profile 26; `vision_get_frame` returns the camera image as an MCP
`ImageContentBlock`, so the model looks at pixels rather than reading a
description of them. Tool profiles now compose — `--profile
vision,robotics` yields 62 tools — so one agent can both see and act
without dragging in the full 136-tool catalogue.

**The cell.** `samples/Robotics/BinPickingCell` follows the spec's own
Robotics-Vision Addendum: the `world → robot_base → flange →
gripper_tcp` frame tree with `camera_eih` on the flange, the `HandEye`
extrinsics and the `Intrinsics612x512` intrinsics — the addendum's
2448×2048 calibration scaled to the 4×4-binned grid the camera actually
delivers. `samples/Robotics/BinPickingClient` hosts the composed MCP
catalogue and optionally the viewer.

**Documentation.** `docs/Vision.md` (~800 lines) covers the model,
hosting, the build context, every topology builder, both perception
paths, feedback, the MCP profile and the limitations; linked from
`docs/README.md`, with the profile table in `docs/McpServer.md` and
READMEs for both samples.

## Evidence, not assertions

Each of these was measured on a running system rather than assumed:

| Claim | Evidence |
|---|---|
| The camera sees the bin | 612×512 frame with the bin and all five
parts in view — red `(212,47,47)`, green `(61,193,71)`, blue
`(54,85,218)`, yellow `(215,196,58)`, orange `(209,119,55)` |
| An agent can act on what it sees | Over MCP, `vision_get_frame`
returns a 612×512 PNG that decodes from base64 to 1,254,051 bytes, the
descriptor beside the detections says 612×512, and all five
`BoundingBox2D` centres land **inside** the frame on the pixel colour
their own detection claims |
| The geometry is right | A detection composed `camera_eih → world`
lands on the authored position, residual **0.0000 m** — on both the
on-server and off-server paths |
| The detector tracks the world | Placing a part drops the next scan
from 5 detections to 4, with that part absent |
| The robot obeys the agent | Scripted run took command authority and
completed a pick and a place, both `Succeeded` |
| Tool catalogues are honest | Counted from a running server: vision 26,
robotics 40, `vision,robotics` 62, full 136, **zero duplicates** |
| Every node is browsable by NodeId | Eight representative NodeIds —
both folders, a pipeline, a frame, the sensor, its Calibrations folder,
the HandEye calibration, the Media folder — all `Good` |

That tool-count check matters because the profile tests collapse names
into a `HashSet` and *cannot see* a duplicate registration — so the new
tests count registrations, not names.

## Things that were wrong, and are not now

Writing the tests found three defects of one kind — code that answered
instead of refusing. A zero-norm quaternion was silently rewritten to
identity, so a caller with an all-zero orientation got a confident wrong
grasp pose. `SubmitCorrection` rewrote a null `ResultId` to empty and
called the sink anyway. A bad `StageIdentifier` **killed the host
process** inside native `UsdStage.Open`, via an exception .NET cannot
catch. All three now refuse loudly and are pinned by tests.

**Nodes that existed but could not be reached.** The node manager
indexes the Vision root before configurators run, so everything the
fluent builder grafted on afterwards — both folders, the pipelines with
their Results and Feedback, the frames, the sensors with their optics,
calibrations and media endpoints — was never added to the index.
Browsing *forward from a parent* worked, because that walks
`NodeState.Children` in memory; browsing any of those nodes *by its own
NodeId* returned `BadNodeIdUnknown`, which is how an ordinary client and
the MCP discovery tools navigate. Registration is now deferred and
flushed after each configurator. The first fix covered only the DI path
and left the documented non-DI fallback broken in exactly the same way,
so `ConfigureVisionAsync` now exists and registers what it builds.

That defect survived a green suite because every test browsed children.
The new tests assert by NodeId, and were checked against the broken code
— with the flush removed, they fail.

**Every Method was uncallable.** The Server passed 426 unit tests while
not one of its Methods could be invoked over a real session —
`RunInference` returned `Bad_TooManyArguments`, and so did every other
Method that takes arguments, which is all of them but `StartContinuous`
and `Stop`. Three independent faults, each sufficient on its own: the
Method nodes were never created (they are Optional children, and the
dispatcher guards every attachment with a null check, so it silently
attached nothing); nothing declared the arguments, so the stack
concluded none were expected; and `MethodDeclarationId` pointed at a
synthesised NodeId rather than the NodeSet declaration a client calls
with, so the lookup missed the instance Method entirely. The builder now
creates the Methods, the `Results` folder and the `Feedback` object when
a provider or sink is configured, declares every signature, and names
the right declaration.

Unit tests could not have caught this: they invoke the handler delegates
directly and never go through `MethodState.Call`. It took an end-to-end
test over a real session. Relatedly, children created by the generated
`CreateOrReplace` helpers carry no `ReferenceTypeId`, so nothing could
reach them — fixed once in the build context rather than at the several
dozen call sites.
**And one where I was wrong.** Earlier in this branch I reversed my own
agents' decision and made `SubmitDetections` accept an empty detection
set, reasoning that "I looked and the bin is empty" is a correct
observation and refusing it forces a correct agent to invent a
detection. The reasoning is sound; it is also an argument *against* the
specification rather than an implementation of it. §9.5 is normative and
explicit — its StatusCode table lists `Bad_InvalidArgument` for
"`Detections` empty; or `SubmitCorrection` supplies both or neither
corrected array".

Worse, **none of §9.5's argument rules were enforced anywhere** — the
dispatcher forwarded every submission straight to the feedback sink, so
conformance depended on whichever sink a host installed. They are Server
obligations, so they now live in the dispatcher, ahead of the sink,
proven by strict mocks that would throw if the sink were consulted. The
usability problem is real and does not go away by conforming, so it is
raised where it can be fixed:
[opcua-drafts#70](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/issues/70).

## Tracking the updated drafts

The Vision, Robot Intent and AI Model Management NodeSets on
`opcua-drafts` `main` have moved, partly because of feedback this branch
raised. All three are re-vendored byte-identically — verified by
comparing git blob hashes against the upstream files rather than by eye
— and the implementations follow.

**Two statements that were previously inexpressible now have a wire
representation.** `SubmitDetections` takes `SceneIsEmpty` and
`SubmitCorrection` takes `RetractAll`, so an agent can report "I
examined this frame and there is nothing in it" — the terminating
condition of the bin-picking task — and can retract a false positive by
correcting a result down to nothing. Both are checked in both
directions, because the flag is exactly what separates a deliberate
empty observation from a lost payload: an empty array without the flag
is refused, and the flag with an array attached is refused as two
contradictory claims about one frame. Implemented in the dispatcher, the
client, the MCP tools the agent drives, and the sample cell.

Also absorbed: `LampType` and `LightingMode` became enums (§66),
`ProfileName` became `DefaultProfileName` on the endpoint (distinct from
the `ProfileName` a caller passes to `GetStreamEndpoint`, which keeps
its name), AI `Invoke`/`InvokeAsync` gained `PayloadUri` under the same
exactly-one rule, and AI `ListModels` gained a `ContinuationPoint` —
because `MaxResults` alone puts everything past the bound permanently
out of reach.

**OpenUSD is on `0.9.0-alpha`**, verified on the running cell rather
than by restore alone: D3D12 backend, 612×512 frame, the bin and all
five parts in view and detected — the same result `0.8.0-alpha`
produced.

The one local workaround that survives is `VisionMethodArguments`, and
its reason has changed rather than gone away: the builder materialises
these Methods as Optional children through `CreateOrReplace`, which
constructs the state object directly and never runs the generated
factory that now carries the signatures. Checked rather than assumed —
removing the declarations fails five of the eight
`VisionMethodSurfaceTests`.

## Review feedback

Three threads, all addressed in `0fe2803a3`:

- **The AI Model Management work is now a library family, not a
sample.** `src/Opc.Ua.AI` (model), `.Inference` (`IInferenceBackend` and
backends), `.Server` (node manager) and `.Client` (discovery, reads,
calls, artefact transfer), in the same shape as the Robotics and Vision
families; the samples become `samples/AI/ModelManagementServer` and
`ModelManagementClient`. The client library needed real work rather than
relocation: its browsing surface was `private` inside the sample's
scenario runner, so moving the file alone would have produced a library
nobody could call.
- **No cloud-vendor SDK is referenced anywhere.** Inference goes through
`Microsoft.Extensions.AI` — an `IChatClient` is implemented by hosted
services and on-device runtimes alike, which is exactly the property
clause 8.1 asserts. `Azure.Identity` is gone: workload identity is not
an Azure feature, every platform projects a token into a file and each
SDK reads that file behind its own API, so the resolver reads it
directly. The comment claiming `Microsoft.Extensions.AI` would force a
`System.Text.Json` bump was stale — it pins 10.0.10, which this
repository already centralises on.
- **`BinPickingCell` and `BinPickingClient` moved into
`samples/Robotics/`**, which is where they belonged: the cell was
already linking the arm, its kinematics and both USD assets out of
`IntentEnabledRobot`.

## Upstream

Work that belonged elsewhere went elsewhere rather than being worked
around locally:

- **`openusd-dotnet`
[#13](https://github.com/marcschier/openusd-dotnet/pull/13)** — merged
and shipped in `0.8.0-alpha`. `SilkFrameCapture.Capture` rendered only
the first capture of a session and silently returned a blank frame for
every one after it. Also filed
[#14](https://github.com/marcschier/openusd-dotnet/issues/14) (no
camera-by-prim API) and
[#15](https://github.com/marcschier/openusd-dotnet/issues/15) (skipped
tests reported as passed — which fooled me for several runs). Both are
fixed; this branch takes `0.8.0-alpha` and deletes two workarounds,
including 143 lines of hand-rolled projection maths.
- **`opcua-drafts`
[#66](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/issues/66)–[#69](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/issues/69)**
— a close read of the spec produced 22 candidate ambiguities; 12 were
discarded as misreadings with clause citations and the remaining 10
filed. One is concrete: five members exist in the NodeId CSV that no
clause documents.
- **`opcua-drafts`
[#70](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/issues/70)** — §9.5
could not express an empty observation or a false-positive retraction.
**Adopted**, with the explicit-flag resolution argued for:
`SubmitDetections` gained `SceneIsEmpty`, `SubmitCorrection` gained
`RetractAll`, and the corrected-array rule relaxed from *exactly one* to
*at most one*.
- **`opcua-drafts`
[#71](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/issues/71)** — the
Vision NodeSet browse-named all 13 `InputArguments` / `OutputArguments`
Properties in the Vision namespace rather than the base namespace, so a
stack could not find them and every Method in the specification was
uncallable. **Fixed**; this branch now tracks the corrected artefact.

## The defect underneath it all

The end-to-end suite was removed earlier in this branch because nine of
its
fourteen tests failed on one symptom: a client could not open a
pipeline's
`Feedback` object or enumerate its `Results`, even though browsing the
same
parent listed both. Restoring it meant explaining that, and the
explanation
was not in Vision.

`RelativePathElement` initialised **`IsInverse` to `true`**. A caller
that
sets a `ReferenceTypeId` and a `TargetName` — which reads as *"the child
reached by this Reference"* — was therefore asking the Server for the
**inverse** Reference, and got `Bad_NoMatch` with nothing in the request
to
suggest why.

`ObjectTypeClient.ResolveChildNodeIdAsync` is such a caller, and it is
what
**every source-generated Optional-child accessor in the stack** is built
on
— the accessor whose own documentation cites
`AlarmConditionTypeClient.GetShelvingStateAsync`
as an example. Vision is merely where it surfaced, because Vision puts
two
Optional children on the path an off-Server agent must take. The sibling
helper in `StateMachineTypeClientExtensions` already set `IsInverse =
false`
by hand, which is the shape of a trap rather than a default.

The default is now forward, `ResolveChildNodeIdAsync` says so
explicitly,
and the existing test that had recorded `true` as *expected* now pins
`false` with the reasoning. Of the forty `RelativePathElement`
construction
sites in the tree, that accessor was **the only one relying on the
default at
all** — every deliberate caller already set it.

Two further defects were found underneath it, both real and both fixed:

- The generated `CreateOrReplace` helpers construct a child state object
directly and leave **`TypeDefinitionId`** unset as well as
`ReferenceTypeId`.
A child referenced by nothing cannot be browsed; one with no type
definition
is a malformed Object that a client filtering by type silently skips —
which
  is exactly what `EnumerateResultsAsync` does. Normalisation moved to
`VisionNodeManager`, so it also covers the case the builder cannot see:
a
result published **at runtime** by an inference provider, long after the
address space was built. That path produced results a client could list
but
  not read.
- `Opc.Ua.AI` shipped without an `AssemblyInfo`, so the solution built
with
  six `CA1014` warnings.

I had initially "fixed" this in the Vision client with Browse-based
fallbacks,
on the strength of a probe that appeared to show
`TranslateBrowsePathsToNodeIds`
failing even for `Server → ServerStatus`. That probe was wrong: it used
an
unqualified `ReferenceTypeIds`, which inside a `Opc.Ua.Vision.*`
namespace
binds to *Vision's* `ReferenceTypeIds` and yields a nonsense NodeId.
Chasing
that to the end is what turned up the real cause. **The fallbacks are
gone** —
they would have hidden a stack-wide bug behind a Vision-shaped
workaround, and
one of them matched on browse name while ignoring the namespace index.

`tests/Opc.Ua.Vision.Intent.Tests` is restored and back in `UA.slnx`,
passing
**14/14** on its own merit rather than through a client-side workaround.
A
registration test now pins the pipeline's `Feedback` and `Results`
children,
which nothing covered before.

## Running it, and what that found

The demo's premise is that a language model **looks at the bin and
reasons
about what it sees**. Running it end to end showed it could not, for
reasons
no test covered, because every one of them lived between components.

**The sample did not compile.** Two `CS8604` nullable errors with
`TreatWarningsAsErrors`, so neither the cell server nor the demo could
be
started at all. Worth recording that my first explanation was wrong: CI
*does*
build this project - the Linux leg's `net10.0` pass compiles it,
log-confirmed -
so this is not a coverage gap in the workflow, and no workflow change
was made.

**`Pick` and `Place` never moved the arm.** They were a delay plus a
gripper
action, so the operations reported `Succeeded` while nothing travelled.
They now
solve IK once and interpolate in joint space. **And the parts never
moved**: the
arm swung but the bin stayed full, because nothing tied the held object
to the
world state. The connector now creates 11 monitored items where it
created 6,
and a scripted run delivers `SeqNo=151` across 10 messages where it
delivered
`SeqNo=3` across 1.

**The frame was smuggled through a string field.** The media provider
put a
base64 *data URI* of the PNG into `VisionImageReferenceDataType.Uri` - a
field
meant to be a *reference*, while the bytes were already returned in the
inline
`ByteString`. Every response therefore shipped the image twice, and a
1,311,400-byte PNG became a 1,748,536-character string against a
`MaxStringLength` of 65,535: **26.7x over**. That is why raising
`MaxByteStringLength`, `MaxArrayLength` and `MaxMessageSize` never
helped - none
of them govern a `String`. Separately the MCP tool assigned raw bytes
where
`ImageContentBlock` requires base64, so the wire carried
`"data":"�PNG..."` -
every non-UTF-8 byte replaced by U+FFFD, destroying the image and
inflating the
response to 6.8 MB.

**The camera was aimed at nothing.** The arm's home pose, the flange
scan pose
the Vision model declared and the joint angles in the USD stage were
three
independent claims about where the camera was, and they disagreed - the
declared
flange orientation pointed the view 86 degrees away from the projection
camera.
Solving them as one thing exposed two further constraints that are easy
to miss:
the camera has to sit off the tool axis or it photographs its own
gripper, and
the IK branch has to be elbow-back or a link parks under the camera and
fills the
frame with the arm's own upper arm. A third was a regression this branch
introduced and `Opc.Ua.Robotics.Tests` caught - aiming a straight-down
camera
from a point on the base's own X-Z plane puts the wrist on the J4/J6
singularity, so every motion away from home fails to solve. A 15-degree
camera
roll, free because the camera still looks straight down, gets 25 degrees
clear,
which is the margin the poses before this branch had.

**The frame and the detections were different images.** The sensor
declared
2448x2048, the clip endpoint 1280x1024, and the renderer produced
640x512 - not
even the same aspect ratio. The ground-truth detector projects through
the
declared intrinsics, so its boxes lived in 2448x2048 space while an
agent was
handed a 640x512 picture: *"pick the red cube you can see"* arrived with
coordinates that pointed off the image. Everything now agrees at
612x512, an
exact 4x4 bin of the native sensor with the intrinsics scaled to match;
the
native size stays in the model and serial number, where it describes the
hardware rather than the image.

**`LatestClip` was created and never written**, so it reported
`Bad_NoDataAvailable` for the life of the Server and a consumer
following the
model - read the published frame, call the method only if there is none
- never
got a frame. The dispatcher now publishes a clip it has just encoded,
for every
Vision server rather than this sample alone.

One genuine API gap turned up on the way: `OpcUaServerOptions` exposes
`MaxByteStringLength`, `MaxArrayLength` and `MaxMessageSize` and **no
`MaxStringLength`**, so a Server that legitimately needs a long string
could not
raise the limit through the hosting API at all. Added, with tests. It is
not the
fix for anything above - that was a design bug - but the missing knob
was real.

## Not finished

- **Two projects sit below the repository's 80% line coverage.**
`Opc.Ua.Vision.OpenUsd` is at 71.1% — what is left only executes with a
real OpenUSD stage and plugin tree, which is not on every build agent.
`Opc.Ua.AI.Inference` is now at **86.7%**, up from 12.9%: the code this
branch *wrote* is covered by 25 tests, and `RestChatCompletionsBackend`
— previously the whole of the shortfall — is covered by 18 more against
a stubbed `HttpMessageHandler`, exercising success, refusal, throttling,
retry-after, timeout and cancellation without a network. Everything else
clears the bar — `Opc.Ua.Vision.Server` 92.1%, `Opc.Ua.AI` 91.4%,
`.Vision.Client` 88.1%, `Opc.Ua.Vision` 85.7%, `Opc.Ua.AI.Server` 80.1%,
all measured with coverlet. The CI coverage gate reports itself as
advisory and non-blocking.
- **`SamplesCollected` is not counted here, and `docs/Vision.md` now
says so.** Section 9.4 requires a Server to count a negative example
(`SceneIsEmpty` / `RetractAll` carrying a `GroundTruthLabel`) exactly as
it counts one carrying geometry. `VisionNodeManager` does not, and
structurally cannot: `SamplesCollected` is a property of
`LearningJobType`, which the *AI Model Management* companion defines,
and Vision reaches the job through a `NodeId` value rather than a
Reference **precisely so this model takes no dependency on the model
that defines it**. What the Server does guarantee is that the negative
example survives the hop intact — both flags are carried verbatim to
`IVisionFeedbackSink` — so a host that binds a learning job has
everything it needs to satisfy the clause on the counter it owns. Stated
in the limitations rather than left implied.

## Related Issues

Was stacked on #4195, now merged. No tracking issue yet for the Vision
implementation itself — happy to open one if you would like the design
recorded as an ADR before this goes further.

## Typed Vision-guided Robotics MCP workflows

The branch now also makes the demo workflow first-class in the Full MCP
profile:

- replaces stringified Robotics intent and mission inputs with typed
request schemas and exact name-or-NodeId selectors;
- adds bounded operation/mission paging, stable step-to-operation
identity, retained mission discovery, and `robotics_wait_mission`;
- makes `vision_run_inference` return bounded typed detection,
inspection, or segmentation summaries in one call;
- adds same-session `robotics_vision_pick` to select a detection and
submit Pick or Pick/Place work without implicitly taking authority,
retrying, cancelling, or waiting; and
- starts Publish workers for classic subscriptions so an independently
launched OpenUSD viewer receives live robot and part updates.

The migration guide documents the intentionally breaking MCP
request-schema changes.

romanett e61ad4b306 Fully support sub-state machines in the fluent state-machine builder (#4322)
# Description

Part 16 §B.3 places `HasSubStateMachine` on the parent **state** node,
but the fluent builder attached it to the state-machine **root** because
`FluentFiniteStateMachineState` never materialized state nodes at all.
Investigating #3821 showed the gap was wider than the reference
placement:

1. **No state nodes existed.** The NodeId written into `CurrentState/Id`
— `new NodeId(stateId, ElementNamespaceIndex)` — was **dangling**: no
node with that id was in the address space.
2. **`AvailableStates` was never populated**, so
`GetAvailableStatesAsync` returned empty against a fluent-built server.
3. **The whole client discovery chain was therefore dead.**
`ObserveEffectiveStateAsync` enumerates `AvailableStates` and browses
`HasSubStateMachine` from each state node — it found nothing. The client
side was already spec-correct; only the server deviated.
4. **`HasSubStateMachine` is non-hierarchical** (a subtype of
`NonHierarchicalReferences`, `i=32`). Using it as the sub-SM's
`BaseInstanceState.ReferenceTypeId` left the sub-SM unreachable from a
hierarchical browse of the machine.

## What changed

**Element nodes are materialized.** Definition-mode machines now create
one `StateType` node per declared state and one `TransitionType` node
per declared transition — each a `HasComponent` child carrying
`StateNumber` / `TransitionNumber`, with the §B.4 `FromState` /
`ToState` / `HasEffect` references and `HasCause` added by `WithCause`.
`AvailableStates`, `AvailableTransitions` and `LastTransition` are
populated, so `CurrentState/Id` and `LastTransition/Id` resolve to real,
browsable nodes. NodeIds are per-instance, so several machines built
from one definition coexist.

**`HasSubStateMachine` moved to the state node**, with the inverse
`SubStateMachineOf`, and the sub-SM is attached as a `HasComponent`
child (fixing 4).

**Core gains element-id mapping hooks.** `GetCurrentStateId` /
`UpdateStateVariable` / `UpdateTransitionVariable` hard-coded the
numeric form and were non-virtual, so a subclass could not redirect
them. They now route through `public virtual` `GetStateNodeId` /
`GetStateId` / `GetTransitionNodeId` / `GetTransitionId`, whose defaults
reproduce the previous `(elementId, ElementNamespaceIndex)` convention
**exactly** — every stack-shipped and generator-emitted machine is
unaffected, and there is a regression test asserting that.

**Generated machines report their model namespace.** The generator now
emits an `ElementNamespaceUri` override on `FiniteStateMachineType`
subtypes, taken from the nearest type that actually *declares* state
children — a subtype that only adds behaviour inherits its elements, and
their namespace, from its base.

**Ordering and validation fixes.** `WithSubStateMachine` and
`WithInitialState` are now order-independent (previously, attaching a
sub-SM before setting the initial state left the child suspended until
the parent left and re-entered the state — silently).
`WithSubStateMachine` validates `parentStateId`, and the builder rejects
duplicate element browse names, since element NodeIds are now derived
from them.

## A defect this surfaced

Code that assembles nodes with the generated `CreateInstanceOf<Type>`
factories never calls `NodeState.CreateAsPredefinedNode`, so
`OnBeforeCreate` / `OnAfterCreate` are skipped for the entire subtree —
and `OnAfterCreate` is the only place a state machine resolves its
element namespace. It is also where `ConditionState` binds its `Enable`
/ `Disable` / `AddComment` handlers and `AlarmConditionState` binds the
shelving methods, so the impact is broader than state machines.

This PR fixes only the two call sites it depends on — DI's
`SoftwareUpdateFacetWiring` and Robotics' `RoboticsOperationBuilder`.
**The repository-wide audit is deliberately left out of scope and
tracked in #4320** (24 files call these factories; none completed the
lifecycle).

The Robotics regression had no test coverage at all, so an assertion on
`CurrentState/Id` was added and verified to fail without the fix.

## Breaking changes

- Sub-state machines are **no longer browsable from the state-machine
root**. Callers passing a machine's `ObjectId` to
`GetSubStateMachineAsync` must pass a state NodeId instead — from
`GetAvailableStatesAsync` or a snapshot's `CurrentStateId`.
- `CurrentState/Id` for fluent machines changes from the numeric form to
the materialized node's id. Code reading a numeric id out of it should
call `FiniteStateMachineState.GetStateId` rather than parsing the
identifier.
- Generated machines qualify `CurrentState/Id` / `LastTransition/Id`
with their companion-spec namespace instead of the OPC UA one.

Documented in `docs/WhatsNewIn2.0.md` and `docs/StateMachines.md`.

## Notes for reviewers

- Adding `virtual` to the `FiniteStateMachineState` members is a binary
(not source) breaking change — assumed acceptable on the 2.0 line, but
worth confirming against the compatibility policy.
- Address-space cost is one node plus one property per declared state
and transition, per machine instance; called out in the docs for servers
instantiating many machines.
- `AvailableTransitions` is modelled as a `HasComponent`
`BaseDataVariable` (matching the standard NodeSet and what the client's
browse path expects), not a Property.

romanett 41db5aca60 Fluent: publish Configure-created nodes' references on foreign-manager nodes (Objects folder placement) (#4331)
# Description

A node created inside the fluent `Configure` hook (source-generated
`[NodeManager]` partial, or the hosting `AddNodeManager(uri, build)`
route) had no way to appear below the Objects folder — or below any node
owned by another node manager.
`AsyncCustomNodeManager.AddReverseReferencesAsync` mirrors inverse
references into the `externalReferences` dictionary **before** the
`Configure` partials run, and the fluent surface never sees the
dictionary, so a configure-created node with an inverse `Organizes`
reference to `ObjectsFolder` existed and simulated but never showed up
under Objects.

This implements the three coordinated pieces proposed in #4329, plus the
companion namespace gap:

**1. Idempotent mirroring pass** (independently worthwhile hardening)
- `AddExternalReference` in `AsyncCustomNodeManager` and
`CustomNodeManager2` now has if-missing semantics (linear scan of the
per-source list).
- `TypeTable.AddEncoding` no longer appends a duplicate encoding id;
re-registering the same encoding is a succeeding no-op.
(`AddRootNotifierAsync` and the node-side `AddReferenceIfMissing` branch
were already idempotent.)

**2. Re-run the pass after `Configure`**
- New protected
`FluentNodeManagerBase.CompleteConfigureAsync(externalReferences, ct)`
wraps `AddReverseReferencesAsync` so hand-written managers using
`CreateFluentBuilder` benefit too.
- The generator-emitted `CreateAddressSpaceAsync` and the hosting
`FluentNodeManager` invoke it once between the `Configure` callbacks and
`Seal()`. Timing is safe: the master distributes `externalReferences`
only after every manager's `CreateAddressSpaceAsync` returns. Side
benefit: inverse `HasNotifier` references on configure-created event
sources get root-notifier registration for free.
- The hosting `FluentNodeManager`'s hand-rolled `externalReferences`
workaround for its root folder is deleted — the root's inverse
`Organizes` reference now flows through the shared pass (mirrored
exactly once, covered by a test).

**3. Discoverable fluent sugar**
- `OrganizedBy(parentId)` / `UnderObjectsFolder()` on `INodeBuilder`
write the inverse `Organizes` reference; with piece 2, placement is just
"write the inverse reference".
- A parentless `CreateInstance<TState>` on `INodeManagerBuilder` takes a
constructor-style factory (`p => new BoilerState(p)`, keeping the
surface reflection-free and AOT-safe), materializes the subtree from the
type model via `NodeState.Create`, rebases all NodeIds through the
manager's `INodeIdFactory`
(`AssignInstanceNodeId`/`AssignInstanceChildNodeIds` — the same pair the
generated factories use, so declaration-id children cannot collide with
the type model), and registers via `AddPredefinedNodeSynchronously`. The
Boiler #2 shape becomes fully fluent:

```csharp
builder.CreateInstance(
        new QualifiedName("Boiler #2", NamespaceIndexes[1]),
        p => new BoilerState(p))
    .Configure(n => n.UnderObjectsFolder());
```

**Companion gap, same theme:** `[NodeManager]` grows
`AdditionalNamespaceUris`, flowing through attribute discovery → binding
→ generator so the generated constructor reports a second (instance)
namespace at construction and the generated factory advertises it in
`NamespacesUris` — today `SetNamespaces` after construction is not
enough because `MasterNodeManager` builds its namespace routing from
what the manager reported when it was built.

**Scope boundary** (as discussed in the issue): startup-time
configuration only; for nodes created after startup the correct
primitive remains `IMasterNodeManager.AddReferencesAsync`.

**Reviewer notes**
- The generated-code change was validated against the real pipeline: a
forced fresh compile of `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` (whose CoverageNodeSet
managers are `[NodeManager]`-generated) emits `await
CompleteConfigureAsync(externalReferences, cancellationToken)` between
`Configure` and `Seal()` and compiles against the real base class.
- The distribution consumer (`AddReferencesAsync`) already used
`AddReferenceIfMissing`, so the whole chain is defense-in-depth
idempotent.
- 15 new tests: double-run idempotence, second-pass pickup of
late-registered nodes, the new reference sugar, root-instance creation
incl. child-id rebasing and reference remapping, hosting end-to-end
Objects-folder placement, emitted-sequence and `AdditionalNamespaceUris`
generator tests, and a full Roslyn-pipeline attribute test. Docs updated
in `docs/NodeManagers.md` (new "Creating nodes under other managers'
nodes" section, attribute docs, fluent-surface sections).
- Verified locally: all touched projects build with 0 warnings; full
`Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` (4,725 passed / 0 failed / 5 skipped, net9.0),
`TypeTableTests` (113), `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` (41),
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` (132), and the Quickstarts.Servers
sample all pass.

romanett 24399f1808 Fix source generator MODELGEN003 diagnostic dropping message placeholders (#4310)
## Problem

`LoggerAdapter.Log<TState>` in
`Tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration/SourceGeneratorTelemetry.cs` reported an
**already fully-formatted** logger `message` against a looked-up
`DiagnosticDescriptor` whose `messageFormat` may declare more positional
placeholders than the single formatted string carries.

For `EventId == 3` the descriptor is `SourceGenerator.Exception`
(`MODELGEN003`) with:

```
messageFormat = "Exception during model generation '{0}': {1}"
```

That format has **two** placeholders but only **one** argument
(`message`) was supplied. Roslyn's `Diagnostic.GetMessage()` runs
`string.Format(format, args)`, which throws `FormatException` because
`{1}` has no argument; Roslyn's internal catch then returns the **raw,
unsubstituted template**. The user therefore saw the literal text
`Exception during model generation '{0}': {1}` with the placeholders
unreplaced, masking the real error.

## Fix

Route the pre-formatted message through a new
`CreateFormattedDiagnostic` helper that reports it via a **passthrough
descriptor whose `messageFormat` is exactly `"{0}"`**, while preserving
the original descriptor's `Id`, `Title`, `Category`, `DefaultSeverity`,
`IsEnabledByDefault`, `HelpLinkUri` and custom tags:

```csharp
public static Diagnostic CreateFormattedDiagnostic(
    DiagnosticDescriptor descriptor,
    string message)
{
    var passthrough = new DiagnosticDescriptor(
        descriptor.Id,
        descriptor.Title,
        "{0}",
        descriptor.Category,
        descriptor.DefaultSeverity,
        descriptor.IsEnabledByDefault,
        helpLinkUri: descriptor.HelpLinkUri,
        customTags: descriptor.CustomTags.ToArray());
    return Diagnostic.Create(passthrough, Location.None, message);
}
```

`LoggerAdapter.Log` now calls this helper instead of
`Diagnostic.Create(descriptor, Location.None, message)`. This renders
the message verbatim under the correct diagnostic id regardless of the
descriptor's placeholder arity, and is safe even when the message itself
contains `{`/`}` characters (the format string is only `"{0}"`).

> Note: the public `descriptor.CustomTags` (`IEnumerable<string>`) +
`.ToArray()` is used because Roslyn's `ImmutableCustomTags` property is
`internal`.

### Why the helper lives in `SourceGeneratorHelpers.cs` (not
`SourceGenerator.cs`)

`SourceGeneratorTelemetry.cs` and `SourceGeneratorHelpers.cs` are shared
(glob-linked) into **both** the model generator
(`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration`) and the stack generator
(`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack`). The stack generator has its **own**
`SourceGenerator` partial class and does **not** compile the model
generator's `SourceGenerator.cs`. Placing the helper in
`SourceGenerator.cs` broke the stack build with `CS0117:
'SourceGenerator' does not contain a definition for
'CreateFormattedDiagnostic'`. `SourceGeneratorHelpers.cs` is the shared
partial (where `Guard` also lives), so the helper is available to both
generators.

### Guard path untouched

The other emission path, `SourceGenerator.Guard(...)` in
`SourceGeneratorHelpers.cs`, uses the same `Exception` descriptor but
correctly passes **two** args (`ex.Message`, `ex.ToString()`), so that
path was already fine and is **not** changed.

## Tests

New
`tests/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests/SourceGeneratorTelemetryTests.cs`
(4 tests):

1. **`DirectReportAgainstMultiPlaceholderDescriptorLosesMessage`** —
documents the pre-fix behaviour: the raw `Diagnostic.Create(Exception,
..., "boom")` render drops `"boom"` and leaks `{1}`.
2. **`CreateFormattedDiagnosticRendersMessageVerbatim`** — the fix
renders `"boom"` exactly, with no `{0}`/`{1}`.
3. **`CreateFormattedDiagnosticPreservesDescriptorMetadata`** — id
(`MODELGEN003`), severity, category, help link, IsEnabledByDefault and
custom tags are preserved.
4. **`CreateFormattedDiagnosticIsSafeForBracesInMessage`** — a message
containing `{`/`}` is emitted verbatim.

## Validation

- `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration` (and the stack variant) build with **0
warnings / 0 errors**.
- Full `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` suite on net10.0: **132/132
passing**, including the 4 new tests.

## Files changed

- `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration/SourceGeneratorHelpers.cs` — added
`using System.Linq;` + `CreateFormattedDiagnostic` helper.
- `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration/SourceGeneratorTelemetry.cs` —
`LoggerAdapter.Log` calls the helper.
- `tests/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests/SourceGeneratorTelemetryTests.cs`
— new regression tests.

Copilot d525bc3f28 Bound reconnect cleanup and organize samples by domain (#4276)
# Description

This PR fixes bounded ManagedSession reconnect cleanup and reorganizes
the sample applications into domain-focused folders.

## Reconnect cleanup

- Bounds reconnect integration cleanup with independent 30-second close
and dispose limits.
- Sends `CloseSession` through the awaited transport request path during
`Session.DisposeAsync`.
- Preserves explicit `Session.CloseAsync` behavior that waits for or
cancels outstanding publish requests.
- Covers the disposal request path with a regression test.

## Sample organization

- `samples/OpenUsd`: `GeneratorServer`, `SiteCompositionServer`
- `samples/Redundancy`: `RedundantClient`, `RedundantServer`,
`RedundantPubSub`
- `samples/Isa95`: `MinimalIsa95Server`
- `samples/MinimalApi`: `MinimalBoilerServer`, `MinimalCalcServer`,
`MinimalClient`
- `samples/DI`: `PumpDeviceIntegrationServer`
- `samples/Lds`: `ConsoleLdsServer`
- `samples/Reference`: `ConsoleReferenceClient`,
`ConsoleReferenceServer`
- `samples/PubSub`: `ConsoleReferencePubSubClient`

`UA.slnx` now exposes the same requested domain groups. Project
references, tests, runtime sample probes, CI workflows, Dockerfiles,
Compose files, helper scripts, and documentation were updated to the new
paths. `samples/Robotics/MinimalRobotServer` remains under `Robotics`.

## Validation

- `dotnet build UA.slnx`
- 3 Redundancy short-haul sample tests
- 70 DI sample tests
- 914 OpenUSD tests
- 1 WotCon model-materialization test
- 137 AOT tests
- `docker compose config` for all 6 moved Redundancy Compose files

Marc Schier 397db603db Add OPC UA for Asset Administration Shell: the published OPC 30270 and v3 draft (#4244)
# Description

Implements the **Asset Administration Shell** companion specifications
on top of `marcschier/wot-type-binding`, in two halves that a Server
chooses between:

* **AAS V3** — the
[draft](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/tree/main/companion-specs/AAS)
(`http://opcfoundation.org/UA/I4AAS/v3/`), all sixteen conformance
units: the metamodel, the registry built on the abstract xRegistry base,
generational materialization, federation, packages with digest-bound
integrity, the Digital Product Passport vocabulary, and the Annex F
bridge to WoT Thing Descriptions.
* **AAS V2** — the published [OPC
30270](https://reference.opcfoundation.org/specs/OPC-30270/full)
(`http://opcfoundation.org/UA/I4AAS/`), which maps the AAS V2.0.1
metamodel: object model, ingestion of XML, JSON and AASX,
materialization, server and client.

The two are different metamodel generations rather than two revisions of
one model — V2 keeps `Asset` as a first-class Identifiable,
`identification.idType`, Views and ordered collections, none of which
survive into V3 — so they are **alternatives**. A Server hosts one or
the other; this is documented rather than enforced at startup. Each is
named for the generation it maps (`Opc.Ua.Aas.V2`, `Opc.Ua.Aas.V3`,
`AddAasV2Server`, `AddAasV3Server`), and what genuinely serves both
carries no marker and sits at the root of `Opc.Ua.Aas`: the
deterministic NodeId encoding and idShortPath conventions,
`AasOptional<T>`, the digest rule, the materialization diagnostics, the
AASX container walk, and the value and operation providers, which are
keyed on `NodeId` and `Variant` and so carry no version at all.

## What is in here

**New libraries**: `Opc.Ua.Aas`, `Opc.Ua.Aas.Server`,
`Opc.Ua.Aas.Client`, `Opc.Ua.Aas.WoT`, plus `samples/Aas` and
`docs/Aas.md`.

**Enabling changes to existing code**, each needed by the above:

* The OPC UA `Decimal` DataType added to `Opc.Ua.Types`, with its Part 6
§5.1.10 wire encoding. `BinaryDecoder` gained one internal member,
`TryReadRemainingBodyBytes`, because a trailing field with no
self-describing length cannot otherwise be read; `Decimal.Decode` is its
only caller. Part 6 Table 3 types the unscaled `Value` as an
**OctetString whose byte count is `Length` − 2**, not a length-prefixed
`ByteString`, so it carries no length of its own —
`DecimalEncodingTests` pins the body byte-for-byte against that mistake,
and against the `Length ≤ 2` values the same table calls invalid.
* The xRegistry projection engine extracted into
`Opc.Ua.XRegistry.Server` and `Opc.Ua.WotCon.Server` migrated onto it
(−848/+387 lines), with the WoT Connectivity tests passing **unedited**.
* Two source-generator fixes, both of which made a model impossible to
build (see below).

## Defects found and fixed along the way

Running the stack end to end, rather than trusting per-area test suites,
surfaced defects that no unit test caught. The ones worth a maintainer's
attention:

* **The generator emitted non-terminating constructors.** A structure
field with no declared default was initialized with `new T()`, so a
self-referential DataType (`AASReferenceDataType.referredSemanticId`)
recursed until the stack overflowed and `AddOpcUaAas` could not load the
model at all. The test host *died* rather than failing. Only the field
that closes a cycle is now left null.
* **The generator omitted `new` on a redeclared placeholder.**
`AASOrderedSubmodelElementCollectionType` redeclares the
`SubmodelElement` slot of its base type, and the generated `Add` method
hid the base one without saying so, so the V2 model would not compile.
No existing model could have hit either defect — both are build
failures, so anything that builds today is unaffected.
* **The metamodel half had never worked outside its unit tests**: the
emitted NodeSet declared no reference-type aliases and was rejected by
the loader; the Mandatory `Invoke` Method was never emitted, because a
NodeSet is imported as written rather than instantiated from its type;
the runtime bound at the authored namespace index instead of the one the
Server assigns; and `MethodDeclarationId` was addressed in the wrong
namespace. Every materializer test inspected the in-memory object graph,
which cannot see whether the graph is loadable — two tests now import it
exactly as `RuntimeNodeSetNodeManager` does.
* **The client could not see any Property member.** It browsed
`HasComponent` with subtypes, but `HasProperty` is a sibling under
`Aggregates`, so reading a value failed and invoking failed argument
validation.
* **Every repeated registry write forked a duplicate group and
resource** instead of adding a version, because the identifier was
re-derived against a sibling set that already contained the entity
itself. This also made the persistence bounds unreachable.
* `.gitignore`'s `**/packages/*` silently swallowed the whole
package-integrity implementation and its tests, which would have
vanished on a fresh clone.

## Specification findings

Nine findings against the V3 draft are fixed in
[marcschier/opcua-drafts#75](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/pull/75).
The substantive one: clause 6.1.5's absent-versus-empty rule was
**unsatisfiable** for five container fields that materialize as parent
components with no node of their own, which made `AAS-LosslessRoundTrip`
unachievable.

OPC 30270 contradicts itself twice. Both are recorded in
`AasV2ConformanceUnits.cs` and the documentation rather than smoothed
over: Table 83 spells the unit `I4AAS MultiLangaugeProperty` where Table
85 spells it correctly, and Table 85 lists an `I4AAS Security` unit that
Table 83 never defines. Table 84, which would assign profile URIs, is
empty, so `ServerProfileArray` gains no I4AAS entry.

## Known limitation

Calling an `Operation` **with arguments** answers `BadTooManyArguments`.
Method resolution works from both the instance NodeId and the
`MethodDeclarationId`, and the argument definitions are published, but
`NodeState.AddChild` does not route through `MethodState.FindChild`, so
a Method imported from a NodeSet leaves its typed `InputArguments` null.
Closing this means changing how the shared NodeSet import claims typed
children, which affects every consumer of runtime NodeSets and is out of
scope here. It is documented in `docs/Aas.md` §11, the conformance
matrix marks `AAS-OperationInvoke` partial rather than claiming it, and
`samples/Aas` exercises the path and reports the status rather than
working around it. V2 is unaffected — its `Operation` is an
OptionalPlaceholder with no declared arguments.

Types 504, WotCon 1111, AAS 670, XRegistry 198 tests passed |
| CI | All 99 checks green on `ff9298e44`; only the CLA signature status
is outstanding |

### Review pass

A full review against both specifications, and for API consistency and
correctness, produced twelve
fixes. Each one has a test that fails without it.

| Defect | Where | Why it mattered |
|---|---|---|
| V2 projection aborted on **every** `File` read from a document |
`AasV2EnvironmentRuntime` | The runtime bound `File/Value`
unconditionally, the materializer emitted it only with content, and the
builder throws `BadNotFound` for an unknown NodeId — aborting the whole
registration. No reader ever populates `AasFile.File`, so no AAS V2
document could be hosted at all. |
| `aas-suppl` anchored on the wrong part | `AasxPackageReaderCore`,
`AasxPackageWriter` | IDTA and the Package Explorer anchor it on the
environment part; we used the origin part. Every real `.aasx` returned
zero supplementary files, silently. Affects both halves. |
| Federation failed closed on pooled connections | `AasFederation` |
`ConnectCallback` fires only for new connections, so the second fetch to
an origin — and all of net472/net48/netstandard2.1 — failed with a
security-flavoured error. The peer is now validated *inside* the
callback, which makes reuse safe by construction. |
| Malformed `Decimal` escaped as `ArgumentOutOfRangeException` |
`BinaryDecoder` | A declared body shorter than `Scale` produced a
negative read length. Two of the three test cases had been passing for
the wrong reason. |
| V2 and V3 cross-wired their value providers |
`OpcUaAasServerBuilderExtensions` | Both registered `IAasValueProvider`;
whichever was added first served both AddressSpaces. V2 now has its own
contract, so co-hosting is harmless rather than silently wrong.
`EnvironmentFolder` was also bound and ignored on the V2 path. |
| Export filter skipped three nesting kinds | `AasEnvironmentExporter` |
Content under `Entity`, `AnnotatedRelationshipElement` and `Operation`
was exported unevaluated *and* stamped with a Digest presenting it as
complete (clause 6.5.10). List authorization paths also shifted after a
denial. |
| Concealment held at the Method but not in the projection |
`AasRegistryModel` | `GetSubmodel` answered `BadNotFound` while an
anonymous Browse revealed the node, its identifier, semanticId and
digest (clause 6.5.7). |
| File handles were unsynchronized and unowned | `AasElementFileManager`
| The async node manager holds no lock, so concurrent Calls raced a bare
`Dictionary`; sequential handles let any Session read, seek or commit
another's. Writes were also unbounded. |
| Projection host was unimplementable outside the stack |
`AasEnvironmentProjection` | The handle demanded a type with an internal
constructor — our own tests used
`FormatterServices.GetUninitializedObject` to get round it. Now mirrors
WotCon's interface-typed registration. |
| Embedded `FileType` omitted 7 of 10 Mandatory members |
`AasEnvironmentMaterializer` (V2) | OPC 10000-3 6.4.4 requires them all;
without `Size` and `OpenCount` a Client cannot size a read or detect an
abandoned handle. |
| Round-trip oracle ignored most of the model | `AasRoundTripComparer` |
`Blob`, `File`, `ReferenceElement` and `BasicEventElement` had no case
arm, so their fields compared equal by falling off the switch;
`valueType`, `semanticId`, `entityType` and `Key.type` were never read.
The clause 6.4 losslessness claim rested on it. |

Known, unchanged: calling an `Operation` with arguments answers
`BadTooManyArguments`, because
`NodeState.AddChild` does not route through `MethodState.FindChild`.
Documented in `docs/Aas.md` §11.

Not addressed in this pass, and worth a maintainer decision: OPC 30270
§9.2 says all NodeIds of
Nodes not defined in the companion specification **shall not** use the
standard namespaces, and
Table 87 marks a vendor-specific instance namespace Mandatory. Both
halves currently mint instances
in the companion namespace. Separating them touches NodeId minting, the
runtime and the client
together, so it is better done deliberately than folded into a review
pass.
This is a large change and touches shared code (`Opc.Ua.Types`, the
source generator, the xRegistry projection). It is deliberately a draft:
the enabling changes are separable if maintainers would prefer them
split into their own PRs. The latest `master` is merged into this branch
in `0dd0ff0e1`.

romanett 333de8305b Add kitchen-sink coverage NodeSet2 with three load pipelines (#4251) (#4272)
# Description

Regression fence for the NodeSet2 import + code-generation surface. This
adds a single, purpose-authored "kitchen-sink" NodeSet2
(`Opc.Ua.CoverageTest.NodeSet2.xml`) plus a small dependent secondary
model that deliberately flip a broad set of the knobs defined by
`UANodeSet.xsd` (every node class, every `Definition` shape, custom
reference types, all five modelling rules, scalar/array/matrix values, a
deep branching instance tree, and a wide set of reference relations).
The same bytes are then loaded into **real** servers (`ServerFixture<T>`
+ `ReferenceServer`) through three independent pipelines and validated
node-by-node, attribute-by-attribute, reference-by-reference:

1. **Source-generation, hand-written manager** - the XML is consumed at
compile time via `<AdditionalFiles
ModelSourceGeneratorPrefix="Opc.Ua.CoverageTest">`; the generated
`AddOpcUaCoverageTest(context)` composes the predefined nodes inside a
`CustomNodeManager2`, so every node materialises as its generated
`NodeState` subclass.
2. **Runtime import** - the identical XML is imported at startup through
`RuntimeNodeSetNodeManagerFactory` / `AddRuntimeNodeSet`.
3. **Source-generation, generated fluent manager** - a
`[NodeManager]`-attributed partial makes the generator emit the whole
`FluentNodeManagerBase` manager, factory and typed fluent-builder
surface.

A shared, data-driven `[TestCaseSource]` battery runs the identical
assertions against all three servers, and a cross-pipeline equivalence
fixture asserts the three address spaces agree. A dependent **second
namespace** (`.../Secondary/`) exercises cross-namespace
`HasTypeDefinition`, `HasSubtype` and `HasComponent` references in every
pipeline.

Authoring the model surfaced two latent source-generator bugs, both
fixed here:

- `NodeSetToModelDesign` crashed on a top-level `<ServerUris>` table
(`StringTable.Append(null)` for the reserved local-server slot). Added a
null guard plus a focused regression test (`NodesetServerUrisTests`).
- `FluentBuilderGenerator` emitted colliding typed-builder accessors for
any model with more than one structure encoding, because
`DataTypeEncoding` objects hang off their `DataType` and surfaced as
parent-less "root" instances sharing the reserved
`DefaultBinary`/`DefaultXml`/`DefaultJson` symbolic names. They are
encoding metadata, never fluent-wired, so they are now excluded from the
typed builder.

A few edges are intentionally not asserted for cross-pipeline
equivalence because the pipelines legitimately differ (documented in
`CoverageNodeSet/README.md`): type-dictionary / `DataTypeDescription`
nodes (the generator regenerates schema rather than emitting them), a
handful of ambiguous duplicate-hierarchical / View-`Organizes` edges,
and runtime structure stand-ins (structure definitions are validated via
the `DataTypeDefinition` round-trip instead).

Marc Schier aad8350bc1 Pluggable symmetric cryptography, an awaitable asymmetric path, registrable security policies, and PubSub crypto offboarding (#4206, #4207, #4208, #4210) (#4232)
# Description

Closes the three crypto-offboarding follow-ups split out of #4192. Each
was recorded there as knowingly *not* done, with the reason and what
would justify revisiting it. Those conditions are met, and where one of
them turned out to be unachievable that is written down rather than
worked around.

The safety property throughout: **every seam is opt-in and null-checked,
and in the default software configuration the added code is observably
inert.** No interface dispatch on the per-message path, and the
asynchronous paths complete synchronously — so channel locking order,
buffer ownership and error sequencing are unchanged for a deployment
that configures nothing.

## #4207 — symmetric, key-derivation and RNG provider seams

`ISymmetricCryptoProvider`, `IKeyDerivationProvider` and
`ISecureRandomSource`, added on the terms #4207 set: only once a
concrete requirement arrived (a validated module that must perform
*every* operation, not just the asymmetric ones), behind a fast path,
with `SymmetricChannelCryptoBenchmarks` as the gate.

They are **facets discovered by type test**, not members of
`ICryptoProvider`, so providers written against the shipped interface
still compile. `PlatformCryptoProvider` implements all three, which
answers the "an interface nothing implements" objection recorded in the
issue.

`CryptoProviderFacets` returns `null` both when no registry is
configured *and* when resolution lands on the platform, because the
platform facets are the inline code. Resolution happens once, in
`CalculateSymmetricKeySizes`, and is held for the life of the channel.

`CryptoCompliance.GetUnservedOperationPurposes` closes the failure the
seam would otherwise introduce: a provider bound to `ChannelSymmetric`
without implementing the facet is silently replaced by the platform, so
a deployment could believe its validated module performed the
per-message cryptography while the platform did. Under `FipsOnly` that
now refuses to start.

## #4208 — the asymmetric path is awaitable

`RSA` and `ECDsa` are .NET's contracts and cannot be replaced without
making every ready-made hardware and cloud implementation unusable.
Instead an implementation may **also** declare `IAsyncRsaKey` /
`IAsyncEcdsaKey`, which the stack finds by type test.

Now asynchronous: the secure channel open and renew path, user identity
token signing and decryption, and session activation. A software key
declares neither facet, so those paths complete synchronously and
nothing about their ordering changes.

`ReadAsymmetricMessage` is refactored into shared helpers rather than
duplicated — adding an `await` was not worth two hundred cloned lines of
signature, padding and endpoint-selection logic. `AsymmetricMessage` /
`AsymmetricWriteResult` exist because an asynchronous method cannot have
`out` parameters.

The channel no longer serialises its state on a monitor. A monitor
cannot be held across an `await`, and a plain `SemaphoreSlim` was not an
option at the time: the code relied on re-entrancy in eight places
(`HandleIncomingMessage` holds the lock and calls `ForceChannelFault`,
which takes it again; `ForceReconnect` and `Shutdown` do the same).
`ChannelGate` replaces it at 32 sites and `DataLock` is `[Obsolete]`.
That reliance has since been removed as well — see [Removing the gate's
re-entrancy](#removing-the-gates-re-entrancy) below.

### Defects this surfaced, all fixed and regression-tested

**Detached work started inline.** Writes were started with `_ =
WriteBuffersAsync(...)`. An async method runs its prologue on the
caller's stack, so `LeaveInheritedContext` — which exists to stop
*detached* work inheriting the right to re-enter the gate — was
stripping the **caller's own** entitlement; when the send then completed
synchronously, the completion blocked on a gate that very thread was
holding. The client sent its OpenSecureChannel request and never
processed the response. Writes are now queued.

**A synchronous gate handle held across an `await`.** `Enter()` records
the acquiring thread so an inline completion callback can re-enter —
`ChannelAsyncOperation` invokes its callback both inline and detached.
That record is only sound while the holder is synchronously on that
thread; the token renewal path held it across an await, so a reused pool
thread was recognised as the holder.

**`SignAsync` rejected the policy that signs nothing.** It validated the
certificate before the algorithm, so `SecurityPolicies.None` — which
carries no certificate — threw where the synchronous `Sign` returns
`null`.

**`EnterAsync` lost the holder when contended** *(found in review)*. The
`AsyncLocal` recording ownership was written inside the awaiting method,
and .NET restores the caller's execution context when an async method
completes, so the write was discarded. The caller returned owning the
semaphore while `IsHeldByCurrentContext` reported `false` — and any
nested `Enter()` then blocked forever on a gate its own context held.
Reachable remotely: `HandleIncomingMessageAsync` → error path →
`ForceChannelFault`. The holder is now published from the caller's frame
before the wait, and only its depth is raised in the continuation.

**Queued writes lost their order** *(found in review)*. Sequence numbers
are assigned under the gate, but independently queued work items reach
the transport's FIFO send lock in arbitrary order, so a peer could
reject a chunk with `BadSequenceNumberInvalid`. Writes are now appended
to a chain: still off the caller's stack, but a write cannot start
before its predecessor finishes.

### Four more this surfaced in CI, on paths only the integration suites
reach

Queuing the writes to fix the deadlock above turned out to have moved
three implicit guarantees, and the gate had one more liveness bug. Each
was reproduced locally against a clean baseline before it was changed.

**A faulting channel's error message never reached the peer.** A
listener channel sends a UASC `Error` describing why it faulted and
closes the transport as its next statement. That worked only because the
write started on the caller's stack, so the bytes reached the socket
first; queued, the close discarded them and the client saw
`BadConnectionClosed` instead of the certificate status it was told to
expect. Nine `SecurityCertValidationTests` cases assert exactly that
status. The terminal error is written inline again, on a path that
touches the gate only to disclaim what it inherited and reports nothing
— a channel that is already faulted is owed nothing beyond its buffer.

**The certificate of a rejected sender leaked.** An asynchronous method
cannot have `out` parameters, so the asymmetric read returns a record
instead. That silently dropped an ownership guarantee: an `out`
parameter reaches the caller even when the method goes on to throw, so
the caller's `catch` disposed the sender certificate and reported it to
the audit. A return value does not — nine leaked certificates, one per
rejection case, which the leak detector fails the run on. The parsed
certificate is now handed to the caller before anything that can reject
the message, restoring both the disposal and the audit.

**The gate could strand its own permit.** It released only when the
holder's depth returned to zero, but that depth lives in an `AsyncLocal`
and is therefore shared with every context forked from the owner's — a
timer callback whose timer was created inside the region, for instance.
Such a context entering the gate raised the shared depth, so the owner's
own exit saw a non-zero depth and returned without releasing, and
nothing afterwards could: the nested exit is not the owner. Every later
entry on that channel blocked forever. `Opc.Ua.Features.Tests` hung
after its tests had finished, with a receive loop waiting on the gate
and the server unable to stop. The owner now releases when it leaves;
depth still gates re-entrancy, but liveness no longer depends on a count
another context can move.

**Write completion throttled the writer.** Reporting a completed write
sat inside the ordering chain, and the client channel implements that
callback by entering the gate — so every write queued behind a gate the
receive loop contends for on each incoming chunk. A session with fifty
subscriptions publishing continuously had its publish requests throttled
enough that the client kept topping them up past its own limit, which
`Subscriptions.Classic` asserts against. Completion is now reported off
the chain, which covers only what ordering actually requires.

### Still synchronous, and why

Certificate, certificate request and revocation list signing cannot be
made asynchronous at all: `X509SignatureGenerator.SignData` is invoked
by .NET's own builders. Service faults and the `Reconnect` override are
reached from synchronous call sites (`SendServiceFault` alone has eight)
and are left as they are behind scoped, commented suppressions. All
three are documented rather than left to be rediscovered.

## #4210 — PubSub

This one produced a finding rather than the API the issue asked for, and
the finding is the point:

> **With a standard Security Key Service the key necessarily exists in
process memory.** `GetSecurityKeys` (Part 14 §8.3.2) returns raw key
bytes over the wire, so the "key never leaves the device" property #4192
achieved for client and server **cannot** be achieved for PubSub through
the SKS pull profile. That is a property of the specification, not of
this stack.

A wrapped-key envelope would change what is on the wire and break
interoperability with third-party key services and publishers, so it was
rejected rather than built.

What is achievable is delivered: the per-message AES-CTR and HMAC route
through `ISymmetricCryptoProvider`, so a validated module performs them.
`IPubSubSecurityPolicy` is **not** modified — new members would break
every implementation of it; the provider is supplied through the policy
constructor. `PlatformSymmetricCryptoProvider` gained AES counter mode,
which the seam should have covered anyway since the algorithm enum names
it.

Key lifetime is also tightened: unpacking an SKS response copied key
material into intermediates that `ByteString.Create` then copied again,
leaving plain keys in the heap for the lifetime of the process. Those
are now zeroed.

### Two wiring gaps this depended on, both found in review

The registrations above were **inert**, so this section originally
claimed more than the code did:

- `CryptoProviderConfiguration` was applied nowhere outside tests, so
`AddCryptoProvider(configure)` never reached the registry in a real
host. The registry now applies every registered configuration when it is
first resolved — which also affects #4207's DI story.
- `PubSubSecurityWrapperResolver` selected
`PubSubAes256CtrPolicy.Instance`, the provider-less static singleton,
ignoring the provider-backed bundles registered for it. A `FipsOnly`
deployment therefore certified while the platform did the work. The
resolver now selects from the registered policies; the container and
`PubSubApplicationBuilder` both supply theirs.

A third, smaller one: `CryptoProviderBuilder.Use` published a
**policy-scoped** random source as the process-wide nonce source, so
`.For(purpose, policyUri).Use(hsm)` redirected nonce generation for
every other policy too. Only an unscoped binding does that now.

## #4206 — a provider can contribute a security policy

Added in review: the policy set was fixed at compile time, so a provider
could contribute key custody but not a *profile*. It is now table-driven
and open, and the blockers #4206 listed are gone.

```csharp
using IDisposable registration = SecurityPolicies.Register(
    new SecurityPolicyInfo("urn:vendor:SecurityPolicy#CustomProfile", "CustomProfile")
    {
        PlatformSupport = () => true,
        SupportedCertificateTypes = [ObjectTypeIds.RsaSha256ApplicationCertificateType],
        IsDefault = true
    });

services.AddOpcUa()
    .AddCryptoProvider(crypto => crypto
        .For(CryptoPurpose.ChannelSymmetric, "urn:vendor:SecurityPolicy#CustomProfile").Use(module))
    .AddSecurityPolicy(customPolicy);
```

- **The reflection is gone.** Four lookup tables were built by
reflecting over the fields of `SecurityPolicies` and
`SecurityPolicyInfo`. They are one explicit table now, which removes the
**last reflection in `Security/Constants`** — so this is a trimming and
Native AOT improvement as much as a feature.
- **`SecurityPolicyInfo` is constructible from another assembly** and
carries the metadata the helpers need, so `IsPlatformSupportedName`,
`GetDefaultUris`, `MapSecurityPolicyToCertificateTypes` and
`GetCurveFromCertificateTypeId` read that table instead of each being
hand-written. Adding a policy is one entry rather than five edits.
- **The dead `#if CURVE25519` conditional is deleted** from
`Security/Constants`.
- Registration is copy-on-write, so the read path stays lock-free.
Shadowing a built-in policy requires `replaceExisting: true` and is
reversible by disposing the registration.

`RegisterLightsUpCurvePoliciesFromOutsideCore` is the acceptance test
the issue asked for: it registers `ECC_curve25519` and `ECC_curve448`
from the test project and asserts they become discoverable through the
public API.

**Registering a policy makes it advertised and resolvable; it does not
supply the cryptography behind it.** For those two curve profiles the
in-tree key agreement is still behind a compile symbol no project
defines plus a BouncyCastle dependency, so a deployment lighting them up
provides the operations through a provider. That division is the point:
the policy set says *what* is offered, the provider says *who* performs
it.

## Removing the gate's re-entrancy

Folded in from #4242, which was merged into this branch.

`ChannelGate` was re-entrant, and that forced the design behind most of
the defects above. A holder that awaits releases its thread, so
ownership could not be tracked by thread identity — it had to live in an
`AsyncLocal<Holder?>`. A logical context is *inherited*, so anything
started while the gate was held inherited the right to re-enter and ran
inside the guarded region alongside whatever started it, unless it opted
out by hand via `LeaveInheritedContext()` at each of eight sites,
enforced by review alone. Five of the defects listed above trace to that
mechanism, including both CI hangs.

So the *requirement* was removed rather than the mechanism, and the
`AsyncLocal` then deleted itself. Every path that re-entered now calls a
lock-free `Core` method (`ForceChannelFaultCore`, `ShutdownCore`,
`ForceReconnectCore`, `CompleteConnectCore`), and three regions stopped
running foreign code under the lock: the `RequestReceived` dispatch is
deferred until the gate is released, `OnTransportError` no longer wraps
the `HandleSocketError` virtual, and the callback setters and
`EndpointDescription` publish a single reference with a volatile write
instead of locking — the last is load-bearing, because
`AsyncResultBase.OperationCompleted` invokes the reverse-hello callback
inline while the gate is held.

`ChannelGate` is now a `SemaphoreSlim(1,1)` behind a `Releaser`;
`Holder`, the thread-identity fallback, `LeaveInheritedContext`,
`IsHeldByCurrentContext` and all eight disclaimer calls are gone, with
the call shape at all 32 sites unchanged. `SaveIntermediateChunk`,
`GetSavedChunks` and `DoMessageLimitsExceeded` gained a `gateHeld`
argument, because the client reaches them both with and without the gate
and must pick the matching teardown — without it an oversized
`OpenSecureChannel` response deadlocked the receive loop against itself.

The remaining paths were not found by reading the code, since that is
what missed them originally. A temporary strict mode made every
re-entrant acquisition throw with its stack, the suite was run under it
until clean, and it was deleted with the re-entrancy it measured. It
caught two sites review had missed: the `EndpointDescription` **property
getter** taking the gate, and the `RequestReceived` dispatch to
application code happening inside the guarded region.

Two deliberate residuals are documented for reviewers: `Dispose` no
longer takes the gate (unavoidable — it is reached from `ChannelFaulted`
with the gate held, where the old re-entrant acquisition excluded
nothing anyway), and the deferred request dispatch builds
`SecureChannelContext` just after gate release rather than under it.

## Testing

New: the three seams and their platform implementations, facet discovery
and resolution precedence, `FipsOnly` refusing a provider that cannot
serve what it was bound to, AES counter mode (including a
non-block-aligned round trip and a check that the counter carries, since
one that did not would silently reuse key stream), `ChannelGate`
(exclusion, re-entrancy across an await, re-entrancy on a reused thread,
and the deadlocks above), the asynchronous channel paths, and the PubSub
policy provider.

Each review finding got a test that fails without its fix:

- `ContendedEntryStillRecordsTheHolderAsync` — established contention
deterministically, then re-entered; failed on the pre-fix gate. Removed
with the re-entrancy it covered; `ChannelGateTests` now asserts the
non-re-entrant contract instead.
- `SecureClientAndTcpListenerKeepChunkOrderUnderConcurrentRequestsAsync`
— 60 concurrent multi-chunk `SignAndEncrypt` requests over a real
loopback listener; failed 3 runs out of 3 with the previous dispatch,
passes 3 out of 3 with the chain.
-
`DependencyInjectionRoutesPubSubCryptoThroughTheRegisteredProviderAsync`
— builds a container, registers a counting provider, wraps a message and
asserts the provider actually performed the encryption and the
signature. This is the assertion the PubSub claim above now rests on.
- `PolicyScopedRandomBindingDoesNotEscapeItsPolicy`.

Two further assertions are the ones that would catch a silent defect: a
provider and the platform must produce **byte-identical** output — a
validated module that disagreed could not interoperate — and with a
software key the returned `ValueTask` must report
`IsCompletedSuccessfully`, which is what makes "ordering is unchanged"
checkable rather than merely asserted.

`SymmetricChannelCryptoBenchmarks` gains a provider-registered variant
beside the existing baseline, so the cost of the indirection is measured
rather than assumed.

Verified locally, every suite at or above its recorded baseline: `dotnet
build UA.slnx -c Release` **0 warnings, 0 errors on all six target
frameworks**; Core **4413** (net10.0); Core.Security **617**, with its
certificate-leak detector clean; PubSub **1350** plus PubSub.Diagnostics
**54** and PubSub.Udp **233**; Features **156**; Subscriptions.Classic
**32**; Server integration **4053**; Client integration **2123**;
MigrationAnalyzer **151** and MigrationAnalyzer.Core **13**. Zero
failures in each.

Core moved from 4388 to 4381 when the gate change landed — eight
re-entrancy tests were removed along with the behaviour they covered,
and one deadlock regression test added — and has since grown to 4413
with the registry isolation, provider-output and security-review tests.
`ChannelGateTests` was rewritten around the new contract — exclusion
across both entry modes, an uncontended asynchronous entry not
suspending, re-entry blocking by contract, and the property that used to
be the hazard: work started while the gate is held is excluded without
having to opt out.

Every CI failure this PR produced was reproduced locally, diagnosed
against a clean `origin/master` baseline in a second worktree, and fixed
at the source. Two hangs were found from `--blame-hang-timeout` dumps
read with `dotnet-dump`. One failure that looked like a candidate was
confirmed **not** to be: an intermittent `Opc.Ua.Aot.Tests` connect
failure, pre-existing on `origin/master` (5 of 8 baseline runs failed,
versus 3 of 14 here).

### The publish request overshoot

`Subscriptions.Classic.PublishRequestCountAsync` failed on the Windows
net10.0 leg with **207** outstanding publish requests against a cap of
`max(maxServerPublishRequest, subscriptions)` = 50. It failed in 2 of 6
pipeline builds on this branch, never on `master` in 13 sampled builds,
and never locally in 12 attempts including under deliberate CPU
contention.

The mechanism is a genuine race.
`ClassicSubscriptionEngine.QueueBeginPublish` was a **check-then-act**:
it read `GoodPublishRequestCount`, compared it against
`GetDesiredPublishRequestCount(false)`, and issued a publish if it was
below. It runs on every publish completion, so *n* completions that
overlap each read the same value, each conclude they are below the cap,
and each issue — overshooting by up to *n* per round. The read also
*lags*: a request only becomes visible to `GoodPublishRequestCount` once
`AsyncRequestStarted` has recorded it, which happens after the request
has already been sent.

That code is pre-existing and was untouched by this PR. What this PR
changed is how hard the race is hit: the server used to hold the channel
gate across request processing, which serialised every request on a
channel, so publish completions arrived one at a time. Dispatching
`RequestReceived` outside the gate — an intended improvement, since a
channel should not serialise on application request-processing time —
lets them complete concurrently.

Rather than change the publish pipeline blind, the race was first made
reproducible.
`ConcurrentPublishReEvaluationDoesNotExceedDesiredRequestCount` drives
64 barrier-released completions against a mocked context whose count
lags the send exactly the way the session's does. It issued **64
requests where 5 were desired** — the same defect the CI leg hit, now
deterministic and running in milliseconds.

The engine now tracks the requests it has in flight and reserves a slot
with a compare-exchange before sending, so the decision and the send are
one atomic step. The reservation is released when the request completes,
when the send is declined, or when it throws. The repro test then issues
at most the desired count.

`StartPublishing` is deliberately left **uncapped**. It is the recovery
valve that refills a pipeline whose requests are outstanding but no
longer expected to return, so gating it on the in-flight count would
remove the only path out of a stalled pipeline. An earlier revision of
this fix did gate it, and that is the one change here that could not be
justified on the evidence — it was reverted.

The assertion was **not** loosened, retried away, or marked flaky: it
caught a real throttling regression earlier in this PR and is worth
keeping sharp.

Validated: the repro test red before the fix and green after;
`Subscriptions.Classic` 32/32 **five** consecutive runs on net10.0 and
once on net48; `Opc.Ua.Client.Tests` 2124 on net10.0 across four
consecutive runs and 2127 on net48; `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests` 604
passed with this fix in place.

### The SSH.NET advisory that turned CI red repo-wide

Partway through this work every build job began failing with `NU1903:
Package 'SSH.NET' 2025.1.0 has a known high severity vulnerability`
([GHSA-q939-rpr3-3284](https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-q939-rpr3-3284),
`<= 2025.1.0` affected, first patched `2026.0.0`).

Nothing in the dependency graph changed — the advisory was published.
Build 17026 failed on it where build 17000, two hours earlier on an
identical graph, had passed every build job. SSH.NET is not referenced
anywhere in the repository; it arrives transitively through
`Testcontainers.Kafka`.

`master` landed the remediation independently while this was being
investigated (a central transitive pin to `2026.0.0`, which
`CentralPackageTransitivePinningEnabled` exists for). This branch
briefly carried its own identical pin, which made the merge commit hold
**two** `PackageVersion` entries for SSH.NET and fail restore with
`NU1506`. The duplicate is removed and `master` is merged, so the pin
now comes from one place only.

The audit was **not** suppressed: `NuGetAudit` stays enabled and
`NU1903` stays an error. Verified after the merge — `dotnet restore
UA.slnx` reports neither NU1903 nor NU1506, and `dotnet build UA.slnx -c
Release` is **0 warnings, 0 errors** with the audit live.

The remaining red check in build 17026 was not from this change either.
`aot-ubuntu-latest` is the intermittent `Opc.Ua.Aot.Tests` failure
already noted above — `ReconnectSessionAsync` timed out at 30s with 135
of 136 passing. It remains below the `origin/master` baseline rate (4 of
15 sampled here against 5 of 8 on the baseline), and the managed
reconnect paths are green throughout: `Opc.Ua.Client.Tests` 2124 across
four consecutive runs and `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests` 604.


## Documentation

`docs/CryptoProvider.md` gains sections on substituting the symmetric
primitives, using a key served over a network, and PubSub — including
what cannot be claimed and why, the scope rule for a random-source
binding, and how to supply a provider-backed policy outside the
container. `docs/MigrationGuide.md` covers the `[Obsolete]` channel
virtuals and `DataLock`, and the non-re-entrant gate's contract for
channel subclasses. `docs/WhatsNewIn2.0.md` is updated.
`plans/cryptooffboard.md` is deleted now that the work it planned has
landed.

## Note for reviewers

This touches the secure channel handshake, which is the most
security-critical code in the stack. Nine distinct concurrency and
lifetime defects were found and fixed in it during this work — three
during development, two in review, four from CI — so `ChannelGate`, the
write path and the certificate ownership across the new suspension
points deserve the closest reading.

Five of those nine traced to the gate's `AsyncLocal`, which is why the
re-entrancy was subsequently removed and the `AsyncLocal` deleted. The
wrapper/`Core` split and the two documented residuals in that section
are the parts most worth a second reading.

The #4206 work removes the last reflection from `Security/Constants` and
rewrites the policy lookup tables, so
`SecurityConfiguration.SupportedSecurityPolicies` and the endpoint set
it feeds are worth a second look: an earlier revision of it changed that
set and broke six server tests, which is now covered by
`SecurityConfigurationBuildsExpectedSupportedPolicySet`.

## Related Issues

- Fixes #4206
- Fixes #4207
- Fixes #4208
- Fixes #4210
- Follow-up #4250 — this PR makes the security policy set injectable,
but nothing in the stack resolves `ISecurityPolicyRegistry` from DI yet,
so every production path still lands on the `Default` fallback. #4250
tracks threading it through `Session` and `UaSCBinaryChannel`, which is
what makes the injection points already added here load-bearing.

romanett d547747e22 Generate ReferenceNodeManager address space from a NodeSet2 model (#4220)
# Description

The CTT/compliance `ReferenceNodeManager` built its ~6,000 node address
space entirely in imperative C#. This PR migrates it to a
source-generated `[NodeManager]` partial driven by an exported NodeSet2
model (`ReferenceServer.NodeSet2.xml`), mirroring the
`MinimalBoilerServer` sample and completing the goal of issue #4204.

The address space is now materialized from the model by the source
generator. The large orchestration body was kept but converted from
create-based to **find-instead-of-create**: each `Create*` primitive now
looks up the model-materialized node via `FindPredefinedNode<T>` and
re-applies runtime values, DataAccess metadata, and write handlers,
rather than constructing nodes from scratch. This keeps the
deterministic value seeding and behavior wiring intact while the
structure comes from the model.

## Notable details for reviewers

- **Idempotent reference wiring.** The mesh references in the
`References` folder are already present in the model, so the historic
manual `AddReference` calls would throw on duplicates. Added a small
`AddReferenceIfMissing` helper so those calls are safe.
- **Non-string NodeIds.** The `NodeIds` folder assigns numeric / GUID /
opaque NodeIds. The model exports those nodes with their final ids, so
find-by-string-path no longer works; added `CreateVariableById(NodeId)`
to locate them by their real id.
- **Generator bug fix (worth a careful look).**
`ModelDesignExtensions.GetValueRankAsCode` reconstructed `ValueRank` as
`dimensions.Length + 1`, so a node with `ArrayDimensions="3,3"` was
emitted as `ValueRank = 3`. This affected **any** NodeSet2 with a fixed
multi-dimensional array (rank-3 matrices, `BadTypeMismatch` on
whole-matrix writes, wrong decoded dimensions). Corrected to
`dimensions.Length` and updated the unit tests that had codified the
off-by-one.

## Validation

- `ReferenceServerTest`: 44/44 on net10.0 and net48
- `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests`: pass on
net8.0/net9.0/net10.0/net48
- Integration on net10.0: ComplexTypes, Client, History, Sessions,
Subscriptions all pass
- Clean build, no new analyzer warnings

Copilot aad9e9b1c1 Document Opc.Ua.Core.Diagnostics trim/AOT exclusion and suppress reflection IL2075 warnings (#4249)
## Description

`Opc.Ua.Core.Diagnostics` has two trim/AOT defects that are invisible
today because the assembly is not marked `IsAotCompatible`:
`NicCaptureSource.StartAsync` carries
`[RequiresDynamicCode]`/`[RequiresUnreferencedCode]` that its interface
member `ICaptureSource.StartAsync` lacks (IL2046/IL3051), and
`ServiceCallReassembler` reflects over `IEncodeable` properties by name
(IL2075 ×3), which under trimming silently returns `null` instead of
failing loudly.

### NicCaptureSource / ICaptureSource mismatch
- Left as-is: `ICaptureSource` stays unannotated since most capture
sources don't need the SharpPcap dynamic-loading requirement, and
`NicCaptureSource` genuinely does.
- Documented explicitly in `Opc.Ua.Core.Diagnostics.csproj` that the
project is deliberately **not** `IsAotCompatible`/`IsTrimmable` for this
reason, mirroring the existing pattern in
`Opc.Ua.Mcp.Diagnostics.csproj`.

### ServiceCallReassembler reflection
- Verified the reflection-based property lookup is intentional (avoids
allocating via `ToArray()` just to get a count; covered by existing
tests).
- Added `[UnconditionalSuppressMessage]` with justification and a TODO
to `GetCollectionCount`/`GetPropertyString`, pointing at the
source-generated-accessor approach suggested as the long-term fix,
instead of leaving the reflection silently unannotated.

```csharp
// TODO: Replace these string-keyed property lookups with a source-generated
// accessor ... until then, GetType().GetProperty(...) here is unavoidable
// and is suppressed rather than silently left unannotated.
[UnconditionalSuppressMessage("ReflectionAnalysis", "IL2075:UnrecognizedReflectionPattern",
    Justification = "...")]
private static int? GetCollectionCount(IEncodeable message, string propertyName)
```

Verified by temporarily enabling `IsAotCompatible` locally: all 3
IL2075s resolve, leaving only the accepted/documented `NicCaptureSource`
IL2046/IL3051 mismatch.

romanett 6e0ed89d3f Make UANodeSetSerializers.g.cs generation deterministic (#4252)
## Problem

Regenerating `src/Opc.Ua.Types/Schema/UANodeSetSerializers.g.cs` via
`UANodeSetSerializers.ps1` produced ~144 lines of no-op churn on every
run. The sgen tool (Microsoft.XmlSerializer.Generator) emits the Reader
`idNN_Name` field declarations and the matching `InitIDs()` initializers
in a hash-seed-dependent order: the assigned id numbers are stable, but
their emission order shuffles between runs. This made an otherwise no-op
regeneration produce a large, noisy diff that was painful to review.

## Fix

- Added a canonicalization pass in `UANodeSetSerializers.ps1` that sorts
each of the two affected contiguous blocks (the `string idNN_Name;`
field declarations and the `idNN_Name = Reader.NameTable.Add(...)`
initializers) by numeric id ascending, so re-running on unchanged input
yields byte-identical output.
- The name regex was widened to `@"[^"]*"` so entries with an empty name
(e.g. `id3_Item`) or URI-style names do not split the block into
independently-sorted runs (which would keep it unstable).
- Regenerated the committed `.g.cs` once through the improved script;
the resulting diff is sort-only.

## Also fixed: tool download

Replaced `Expand-Archive` (which rejects the `.nupkg` extension on
Windows PowerShell) with
`System.IO.Compression.ZipFile.ExtractToDirectory`, so a clean run with
an empty tool cache works end-to-end on both Windows PowerShell 5.1 and
PowerShell 7+.

## Validation

- From an empty tool cache, the full download + extract + generate path
succeeds.
- A second run is a byte-identical no-op (`git diff --exit-code` = 0).
- `dotnet build src\Opc.Ua.Types\Opc.Ua.Types.csproj -c Release -f
net10.0` builds with 0 warnings and 0 errors.
- All AOT post-processing is preserved: custom header, `#if
NET5_0_OR_GREATER` wrapper, module IL2026/IL3050 suppressions,
`[RequiresUnreferencedCode]`/`[RequiresDynamicCode]` on the
InitCallbacks() overrides (Writer = RequiresUnreferencedCode only,
Reader = both), pragmas, UTF-8 BOM, and CRLF line endings.

No hand-edits to `.g.cs`; the fix lives entirely in the script so future
regenerations stay stable.

## Also: Load UserAccessLevel from NodeSet2 model

Bundled here because it regenerates `UANodeSetSerializers.g.cs`, which
this PR owns.

- `UANodeSet.cs`: adds the `{Member}Specified` XmlSerializer convention
to `UAVariable.UserAccessLevel` (new `UserAccessLevelSpecified`
companion; removed the `[DefaultValue((uint)1)]`) so an
explicitly-present `UserAccessLevel` attribute is distinguishable from
the schema default of 1.
- `UANodeSetSerializers.g.cs`: regenerated - the writer now emits
`UserAccessLevel` when `UserAccessLevelSpecified`, and the reader sets
`UserAccessLevelSpecified = true`. Regenerating produced only these two
behavioral changes plus removal of pre-existing empty `if
(o.@MemberSpecified) { }` no-op blocks (see below); no `idNN` re-sort,
so determinism held.
- `UANodeSetHelpers.cs`: the runtime importer honors an
explicitly-specified `UserAccessLevel` instead of always deriving it
from `AccessLevel`.
- Source generator (`ModelDesign.cs` `RawUserAccessLevel`,
`ModelDesignExtensions.GetUserAccessLevelAsCode`,
`NodeSetToModelDesign.cs`): emit the verbatim `UserAccessLevel` when the
NodeSet sets it, otherwise derive from `AccessLevel` (matching the
runtime importer).

### Generator normalization for `{Member}Specified`

sgen emits an extra empty `if (o.@MemberSpecified) { }` no-op block near
`WriteEndElement` for every member that uses the `{Member}Specified`
convention. Adding the companion to `UserAccessLevel` would have
introduced one such block, and the committed file already contained
several for other members (`LastModified`, `AccessRestrictions`,
`PublicationDate`). `UANodeSetSerializers.ps1` now strips these empty
guard blocks during post-processing, so the generated file stays free of
dead code and a re-run of the generator remains a byte-identical no-op.
The real, non-empty guard around the `WriteAttribute` call is preserved.

The ReferenceServer sample application of this feature is intentionally
excluded and lands with #4220.

### Validation (UserAccessLevel)

- `dotnet build src\Opc.Ua.Types\Opc.Ua.Types.csproj -c Release -f
net10.0` and `dotnet build
tools\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.csproj
-c Release`: both 0 warnings / 0 errors.
- `dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests -c Release -f
net8.0 --filter
"FullyQualifiedName~NodeSetToModelDesign|FullyQualifiedName~UserAccessLevel"`:
16 passed, 0 failed.
- Re-running the generator remains a byte-identical no-op.

romanett 34fe1a1567 Emit WriteMask from the model in the source generator (#4253)
## Summary

Isolates a self-contained OPC UA source-generator bug fix, extracted
from PR #4220 (which targets a different base branch) so it can merge
independently against `master`.

## Fix: Emit node WriteMask from the model

**Bug:** The `NodeState` source generator hardcoded
`global::Opc.Ua.AttributeWriteMask.None` for both the `WriteMask` and
`UserWriteMask` attribute replacements. As a result, attributes declared
writable in a NodeSet2 model (for example `WriteMask=96`) were emitted
as `None`, so writes to those attributes failed with `BadNotWritable`.

**Change:**
- `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core/Generators/NodeStateGenerator.cs`
- the common node replacements now emit `root.GetWriteMaskAsCode()` for
the `WriteMask` and `UserWriteMask` tokens instead of the hardcoded
`AttributeWriteMask.None`.
- `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core/Schema/ModelDesignExtensions.cs` -
adds a `GetWriteMaskAsCode(this NodeDesign node)` helper that returns
`global::Opc.Ua.AttributeWriteMask.None` when `WriteAccess == 0`,
otherwise `(global::Opc.Ua.AttributeWriteMask){writeMask}`.

## Tests

-
`tests/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests/Schema/ModelDesignExtensionsTests.cs`
- adds `[TestCase]`-driven coverage for `GetWriteMaskAsCode` across
representative write-mask values plus a null-node test.

## Validation

- `dotnet build
tools\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.csproj
-c Release` - 0 warnings, 0 errors.
- `dotnet test
tests\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests.csproj
-f net8.0 -c Release` - 3775 passed, 0 failed, 8 skipped.

## Note on the Views fix (excluded)

A second generator fix (preserve forward same-namespace `Organizes`
references to `ViewDesign` targets in `NodeSetToModelDesign`) was
intended to ship here as well, but it was excluded. That fix compensates
for behavior introduced by #4220 where imported Views are promoted to
top-level `ViewDesign` nodes and their `ParentNodeId` is cleared. On
`master` that promotion does not happen (Views remain children of their
folder), so the fix and its test do not apply and cannot be cleanly
isolated. It will land with #4220.

romanett cc4791e2fd Import NodeSet2 Views as standalone top-level nodes in the source generator (#4259)
## Problem

The NodeState source generator mishandled `UAView` nodes imported from a
NodeSet2 model. When an exporter set a View's `ParentNodeId` to an
organizing folder, the importer/generator absorbed the View into that
folder's `Children` and tried to emit an invalid `AddChild(...)` call.
Because `ViewState` derives from `NodeState` (not `BaseInstanceState`),
a View can never be an `AddChild` component, so the generated code was
invalid.

## Fix

Make Views standalone top-level predefined nodes linked purely via
`Organizes` references — mirroring how `DataType`/`ReferenceType` type
nodes and `DataTypeEncoding` are handled:

-
**`tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core/Schema/NodeSetToModelDesign.cs`**
— clear the `UAView` `ParentNodeId` so the View stays a standalone
top-level node, keep the organizing folder's forward `Organizes`
references to those Views, and carry the View's `ContainsNoLoops`
attribute through to the `ViewDesign`.
-
**`tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core/Generators/NodeStateGenerator.cs`**
— return `null` for `ViewDesign` in the `AddChild` and `ReplaceChild`
template paths so Views are never emitted as components.
-
**`tests/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests/Schema/NodeSetToModelDesignTests.cs`**
— new `ViewImport` NodeSet constant and
`ImportPreservesFolderOrganizesReferencesToViews` test verifying Views
are imported as top-level nodes while the organizing folder retains its
forward `Organizes` references to them.

## Validation

- `dotnet build tools\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` (Release): 0
warnings / 0 errors.
- `dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` (net8.0,
filtered to `NodeSetToModelDesign`): all 17 tests pass, including the
new `ImportPreservesFolderOrganizesReferencesToViews`.

Extracted from the larger PR #4220 work — this PR contains only the
source-generator View fix (no WriteMask, UserAccessLevel, NodeSet2.xml,
or ReferenceNodeManager changes).

romanett 2c2bfa7080 Fix off-by-one ValueRank in the NodeState source generator (#4258)
## Summary

`ModelDesignExtensions.GetValueRankAsCode` in the NodeState source
generator computed the ValueRank for a fixed-size multi-dimensional
`ArrayDimensions` string (e.g. `"3,3"`) as `dimensions.Length + 1`,
which over-counted the rank by one. The number of comma-separated
entries in `ArrayDimensions` already **is** the ValueRank — `"3,3"` is a
two-dimensional array with ValueRank `2`, not `3`.

## Changes

- `dims = dimensions.Length + 1` → `dims = dimensions.Length` (entry
count already equals the ValueRank).
- Added a guard: when there are zero entries (empty or all-commas
`ArrayDimensions`, which `Split(..., RemoveEmptyEntries)` reduces to
length 0), the method now returns `OneOrMoreDimensions`.
- Refreshed the stale explanatory comment / removed the obsolete `TODO`.
- Updated the `GetValueRankString_*` unit tests in
`ModelDesignExtensionsTests.cs` to the corrected expected ranks.

## Validation

- `dotnet build` of `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` (Release): 0 warnings
/ 0 errors.
- Filtered `GetValueRankString` tests on net8.0: 18/18 passed.

Extracted from the larger PR #4220 work; this PR contains **only** the
ValueRank fix (two files).

Marc Schier 1cca744b5c Retire the last exposed locks: node, browser, server diagnostics and application properties (#4222)
Closes #4201. Closes #4202. Closes #4203. Closes #4215. Closes #4216.

(#4215 and #4216 are @marcschier's originals from the #4188 review;
#4202 and #4201 are my later duplicates of the same two findings. All
four describe the two changes in section 1 and are closed together.)

**This PR now carries what was #4221 as well.** The two were a stack;
they have been unstacked and combined here, and #4221 is closed.
Everything below the "Read the server diagnostics" section is the work
that was previously reviewed as #4221.

---

## 1. The browse path guards itself, and the last node locks are gone

`AsyncCustomNodeManager` kept two `lock (source)` sites around
`CreateBrowser`, carrying a NOTE that browser creation was not
internally synchronized. `NodeBrowser` still handed its lock to derived
types through `protected Lock DataLock`.

`NodeState.CreateBrowser` now holds a browse lock across
`PopulateBrowser` and `OnPopulateBrowser`, so browser construction on a
node is serialized — which is what the external `lock (source)` was
actually providing, and what a handler that mutates the node during
population (the historian's lazy config installer) depends on. Both
`lock (source)` statements and the NOTE are gone.

**What that lock does not do**, stated plainly in the XML docs and in
`docs/NodeManagers.md` rather than over-promised: it is not an atomic
snapshot across the node's children, notifiers and references. Writers
take those collections' own locks, not the browse lock. The browser is a
point-in-time copy and each collection is read consistently, but the
combination is not a transaction.

No `lock` takes a `NodeState` as its sync root any more. That was the
last thing keeping `NodeState` from being documentably self-guarding, so
the other eleven went with it: `lock (activeNode)`, `lock (target)`,
`lock (source.Node)`, `lock (target.Node)`, `lock (notifier)`, `lock
(handle.Node)` in `AsyncCustomNodeManager`, and `lock (node)` in
`CustomNodeManager2`. Most were a check-then-act pair now served by
`NodeState.AddReferenceIfMissing`, which does the check and the insert
under the node's own lock.

`NodeBrowser.DataLock` is removed. A browser is **single-consumer**: it
belongs to whoever created it, and both server browse paths already
serialize on the owning side. The exposed lock only added an
inheritance-level locking contract that a derived browser could not
reason about.

## 2. Read the server diagnostics under the lock every writer takes

`OnUpdateDiagnostics` locked the diagnostics **payload** rather than the
lock every writer takes through `UpdateServerDiagnostics`, so the
snapshot a client reads from the `ServerDiagnostics` node was never
excluded from a concurrent writer.

Both halves matter, and the second is the one that is easy to miss:

```csharp
lock (m_diagnosticsLock)                                        // was: lock (ServerDiagnostics)
{
    value = Variant.FromStructure(ServerDiagnostics, copy: true);  // was: copy defaulted to false
}
```

`copy: true` is what makes it a snapshot. `FromStructure(value, copy:
false)` does `new ExtensionObject(value, copy)` — it wraps the **live**
structure without copying it, so the caller would read the fields long
after the lock was released and see them change underneath. Swapping the
lock alone would have looked like a fix while still excluding nothing.

## 3. Analyzer numbering

The browser rule is **UA0027**, not UA0025. This branch had
independently taken UA0025 for `NodeBrowser.DataLock` while #4188
published UA0025 for `ILocalNode.DataLock` and UA0026 for
`BaseVariableValue.Lock`. Master's are shipped, so they keep the
numbers:

| | UA0025 | UA0026 | UA0027 |
|---|---|---|---|
| master (#4188) | `ILocalNode.DataLock` | `BaseVariableValue.Lock` | —
|
| **this PR** | `ILocalNode.DataLock` | `BaseVariableValue.Lock` |
**`NodeBrowser.DataLock`** |

Both sides had written a different `UA0025Tests.cs`, which arrived as an
add/add conflict. They are now split: `UA0025Tests.cs` holds master's
`ILocalNode` tests, `UA0027Tests.cs` holds the `NodeBrowser` ones.

UA0024's help text also drops its reference to `ReadServerDiagnostics`,
which #4193 removed as unused, and names `ISession.ReadDiagnostics` /
`ISubscription.ReadDiagnostics` instead — those do still exist.


## 4. Two more locks reachable from outside their owner

**`ApplicationConfiguration.PropertiesLock` is removed.** It returned
the properties dictionary itself, so `lock
(configuration.PropertiesLock)` was `lock (configuration.Properties)` —
the lock *was* the data it guarded, the same shape as #4203.

It had exactly one production consumer
(`OAuth2CredentialCollection.Load`, a get-or-add with `ParseExtension`
called inside the lock), so it could not simply be deleted. `Properties`
is now a `ConcurrentDictionary` — same public type, every operation
atomic on its own — and the one multi-operation need gets a member of
its own:

```csharp
public T GetOrAddProperty<T>(string key, Func<T> valueFactory);
```

It deliberately does **not** invoke the factory under a lock, so
`ParseExtension` now runs outside any critical section. Holding a lock
across a caller-supplied callback is exactly the shape that produced the
attribute/diagnostics deadlock earlier in this work.

The two existing tests asserted only `PropertiesLock is not null`, so
they tested nothing but its presence. They are replaced by tests of the
contract: factory runs once for a missing key, not at all for a present
one, 32 concurrent callers all observe the same instance, null arguments
throw.

`PropertiesLock` ships in 1.5.378, so this is a breaking removal —
migration guide section plus analyzer **UA0028**.

**`SharedDefinitionCache` no longer hands out its lock.** Three sites in
`SharedKeyValueSubscriptionStore` took the nested cache's `Lock` to
operate on the cache's own dictionary. Both are private now, behind
`ReplaceAll` and `CloneWhere`.

`SnapshotCommitLock` stays exposed on purpose: it is a `SemaphoreSlim`
sequencing an async commit across `await` points, which
`System.Threading.Lock` cannot span, so folding it in would change
behaviour rather than hide a lock.
## Verification

Merged `master` (`0edfe237a`, including #4234) with no conflicts.

- `dotnet build UA.slnx` — 0 warnings, 0 errors
- `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` — 4074 passed
- `Opc.Ua.Types.Tests` — 8501 passed
- `Opc.Ua.MigrationAnalyzer.Tests` — 151 passed on all five TFMs (138 →
151, the new ones being UA0027 and UA0028)
- `Opc.Ua.Core.Tests` — 4249 passed
- `Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Server.Tests` — 573 passed

## Note for the reviewer

@romanett — your approval was given when this PR's diff was the 7
diagnostics files, because it was measured against
`marcschier/node-browse-locks`. Now that the two are combined and the
base is `master`, the diff is 23 files, and the extra 16 are the
node/browser lock work that was #4221. GitHub kept the approval across
the retarget, but it did not cover that code, so please re-review rather
than let it ride.

Follow-ups to #4165, plus the work that followed from re-checking this
branch against the specification. Everything started as a defect found
by review or by probing the running code; the specification is unchanged
except where noted.

The TLS certificate lifetime fix (#4196) and the OpenUSD work (#4198)
were both merged into this branch. #4196 has since landed on master, so
it no longer appears in this diff. #4198 was closed in favour of this PR
and its content is here.

The MCP trim/AOT work (#4228), the `DataGenerator` null `NodeId` fix
(#4227) and the NodeSet external-parent import fix (#4229) have since

## A two-arm cell could not be built

`IntentExecution` carried no controller identity, and there was
effectively one `IIntentExecutor` per server. An executor handed an
execution therefore could not tell **which arm** it was for, so a cell
with two `IntentControllerType` instances — an ordinary configuration —
was not expressible through the builder or DI.

Both halves are addressed:

- `IntentExecution` now carries `ControllerId` (`NodeId`, the OPC UA
identity) and `ControllerName`, so one shared executor can discriminate;
- DI gained per-controller registration —
`AddRobotIntentExecutor<TExecutor>(controllerBrowseName)` and an
instance overload — so two genuinely different executors can coexist.

Resolution order is `WithExecutor` → per-controller DI registration →
the single DI executor → a build-time throw. There is still **no silent
fallback** to a rejecting executor; that was a Critical defect fixed in
#4165 and it stays fixed. `IIntentExecutor` is unchanged, so this is
purely additive.

## Declarations that were quietly untrue

- **`Accepts<T>` silently discarded a redeclaration.** Declaring an
intent type twice — say to narrow `cancelSupported` on the second call —
kept the first, wider declaration and said nothing. That is the same
class of defect as the capability-honesty problems #4165 fixed
(`PauseSupported` declaring a pause the host could not perform;
`Aborting` degrading silently to `Buffered`). Identical redeclarations
remain idempotent; conflicting ones now throw `BadInvalidArgument`.
- **`RI-Interop-40010` assumed Annex B item 3 rather than checking it.**
It now requires exact set equality between the OPC 40010
`TaskProgramName` values and the Robot Intent `ProgramType.ProgramId`
values. Both sides are readable from the address space without
commanding the robot, which is what makes the requirement structural
under §12.1.

## Two things the specification requires that this did not do

Re-checking the implementation against the merged draft revision turned
up two genuine violations. Both are fixed, and the NodeSet is untouched
by either.

- **Every graphed mission reported `Failed` on success.**
`MissionRules.SelectTransition` returned `null` for two different
situations — a graph *terminus*, which is the normal success path, and a
branch point whose conditions all evaluated false — and the caller
collapsed both into `Failed`/`NoTransition`. A three-way result
(`Terminus` / `Selected` / `NoConditionMatched`) separates them, so a
mission that runs to its end now completes. The failure reason surfaces
through the inherited Part 10 result container rather than a new member.
- **Facet URIs were never published.** An upstream `may` became a
`shall` in the revision this branch adopts.
`RobotIntentConformanceUris.Facets` held 31 URIs with **zero**
production references — the set existed but nothing emitted it. The
published set is now derived from `RobotIntentFacetCalculator`, the same
authority that already computed `SupportedFacets`, rather than from a
second hand-maintained list that could drift; a reflection test pins the
two together.

## An easy client mistake

`RequestAuthorityAsync` returns a lease the caller must remember to
inspect. Forgetting makes every later submission fail with
`ControlNotOwned` for reasons that are invisible at the call site.
`RequireAuthorityAsync` throws instead, and names the current owner.
`RequestAuthorityAsync` is untouched — inspecting and branching is
legitimate.

## Letting an agent drive the robot

New `tools/Opc.Ua.Mcp.Robotics` gives a language model the intent API as
MCP tools: 36 across discovery, monitoring, direct control and missions,
behind a `Robotics` tool profile, composable into any MCP host exactly
as the existing OPC UA tool packages are. The `IntentViewerClient`
sample hosts them behind `--mcp` (stdio by default, HTTP when `--view`,
since MCP stdio and the in-process viewer would otherwise share stdout),
and the sample gained a pallet scene so an agent can pick and stack
parts and watch the result in the OpenUSD viewer. All the scene logic is
server-side — no viewer or connector changes.

Four gaps in the client API had to be filled first, since the tools are
a thin layer over it and could not have been written honestly without
them: `ReadStateAsync`, `ListOperationsAsync`/`ListMissionsAsync`,
controller-level
`CancelIntent`/`CancelAll`/`Pause`/`Resume`/`Retry`/`ReleaseControl`,
and `WaitForCompletionAsync`.

The tools refuse rather than paper over: a refusal from the server is
returned with its `IntentFailureEnum` and never retried, and command
authority is never acquired as a side effect of a tool call.

**One defect this surfaced:** `--profile robotics` shipped 36 tools that
could not do anything. Every robotics tool resolves a named OPC UA
session and only the connection tools can open one, so with no `Connect`
in the catalogue the whole profile failed. A test had pinned the defect
in place, asserting the profile did *not* contain `Connect` on the line
below the `diagnostics` assertion requiring it. Each package now
declares its own requirement in its registration extension rather than
the host special-casing it, so an application embedding
`Opc.Ua.Mcp.Robotics` directly gets a usable catalogue without
reproducing the host's pairing. `Full` still takes the connection tools
from the core package, so they are never registered twice. The
replacement test states the invariant — a profile exposing
session-scoped tools must expose the tools that open a session — rather
than the instance.

## Making the MCP libraries trim and AOT clean

*Merged from #4228.*

`Opc.Ua.Mcp.Core` is now `IsAotCompatible` on `net10.0`, and the
reflection the analysers then reported is gone. Turning the analysers on
is the point: until now they were not running on these libraries at all
— including on the tool library this branch adds.

- **`OpcUaJsonHelper.Serialize`** went through `JsonSerializer` (IL2026
/ IL3050). The conversion helpers in that class already reduce every OPC
UA value to a closed set — `null`, the primitive scalars, `string`,
`Dictionary<string, object?>` and lists thereof — so the JSON is now
written directly with a `Utf8JsonWriter`.

Output is unchanged, and that is asserted rather than assumed:
`OpcUaJsonHelperTests.SerializeMatchesTheReflectionBasedSerializer`
compares the new writer byte for byte against `JsonSerializer` for every
shape the helpers emit, including all numeric widths, the
custom-formatted scalars, nested sequences and strings that force the
encoder to escape.

One deliberate contract change: arbitrary object graphs are no longer
accepted. Serializing them needs reflection, so `Serialize` now throws
`NotSupportedException` naming the type instead of silently stringifying
it. No call site in the repository passes anything outside the closed
set.

- **`McpSchemaFilters`** used `JsonSerializer.SerializeToElement` on a
`JsonObject`; it now parses the node's own text, which needs no
reflection.

`Opc.Ua.Mcp.Diagnostics` is deliberately **not** marked. It depends on
SharpPcap and on the reflective service-call dissection in
`Opc.Ua.Core.Diagnostics`, neither of which is trim safe — which is why
that package does not opt in either. Two improvements are kept
regardless: `PacketDecodeTools` serializes `DecodedServiceCall` through
a source-generated `JsonSerializerContext`, and
`PacketCaptureTools.ListInterfaces` now carries the
`RequiresUnreferencedCode` / `RequiresDynamicCode` annotations that
`NetworkInterfaceEnumerator.ListLocalInterfaces` already declares, so
the constraint is visible to callers instead of implicit. Nothing is
suppressed.

Marking an assembly `IsAotCompatible` only proves its own IL is clean;
it says nothing about whether the library still functions once
reflection is gone. So `Opc.Ua.Aot.Tests` references `Opc.Ua.Mcp.Core`
and exercises it with JSON reflection disabled, stating what is and is
not true today:

- tool **results** serialize without reflection — this would fail
outright if the `Utf8JsonWriter` change regressed;
- tool **registration** still requires reflection, because the MCP SDK
builds each tool's input schema by asking `JsonSchemaExporter` for a
`JsonTypeInfo` of every parameter type. Without a source-generated
context covering the tool signatures — and with the injected
`OpcUaSessionManager` being described rather than treated as a service —
that throws `NotSupportedException`.

The second test asserts the throw. It documents the remaining gap and
turns red the moment someone closes it, rather than leaving it to be
found in a published binary. The package README says the same thing in
prose.

**Two pre-existing issues this surfaced, both outside this PR:** pulling
`Opc.Ua.Mcp.Diagnostics` into an AOT publish reports `IL2046` / `IL3051`
on `NicCaptureSource.StartAsync`, which is annotated
`RequiresUnreferencedCode` / `RequiresDynamicCode` while the
`ICaptureSource.StartAsync` it implements is not, and `IL2075` on
`ServiceCallReassembler.GetCollectionCount` / `GetPropertyString`, which
call `Type.GetProperty` on the result of `GetType()`. Happy to file
these separately if useful.

## A generator that returned the value you opted out of

*Merged from #4227. Fixes #4226.*

`GetRandomNodeId(useBoundaryValues: false)` could still return
`NodeId.Null` — one of the boundary values the same method offers when
boundary values *are* requested. A caller that opted out should not
receive one, and `GetRandomExpandedNodeId` builds on it and inherited
the same behaviour.

The `IdType.Opaque` branch is the practical path:
`GetRandomByteString()` draws its length with
`NextInt32(MaxStringLength)`, which is inclusive of zero, and a
zero-length opaque identifier in namespace 0 satisfies `NodeId.IsNull`.
With three namespaces and `MaxStringLength` at 10 that is roughly **one
call in 130**. A numeric identifier of `0` in namespace 0 is null too,
at around one in four billion.

The draw is now repeated while the result is null and boundary values
were not requested. Guarding the result rather than the individual
branches covers every identifier type, including the numeric case,
rather than only the one that happens to be reachable today. The
`useBoundaryValues: true` path is untouched, so boundary values remain
available when they are asked for.

Four tests in `tests/Opc.Ua.Core.Tests/Types/DataGeneratorTests.cs` loop
20,000 draws, because at one call in 130 a single draw proves nothing.
Against the **unmodified** generator they fail on draw 93 and draw 1346.
Two of the four exist to keep the fix honest rather than to test the
bug: `GetRandomNodeIdStillProducesEveryIdentifierType` catches a "fix"
that simply stopped emitting opaque identifiers, which would satisfy the
null assertions while silently narrowing the generator, and
`GetRandomNodeIdWithBoundaryValuesStillYieldsThem` confirms the leak was
closed rather than the feature removed.

**How it was found:** an intermittent downstream test failure. A test
server initialising a static `NodeId`-valued variable via
`TestDataSystem.ReadValue` occasionally stored `NodeId.Null`; the
encoder correctly writes that as JSON `null`, and a consumer asserting a
value was present failed about one run in five — never reproducibly in
isolation. It only surfaced under load because `UnsecureRandom.Shared`
is a fixed-seed, process-global generator shared between `DataGenerator`
and OPC UA transport jitter, so the number of draws preceding
address-space initialisation depends on what else is running in the
process.

## A NodeSet parent that lived outside the import batch

*Merged from #4229.*

`UANodeSetHelpers.LinkParentChildRelationships` builds its lookup table
from **only the nodes in the current import batch**, links a child when
the parent is found — and then cleared `instance.Handle`
**unconditionally**, which is exactly where `Import` had stashed the
authored `ParentNodeId`. A node whose parent lives in another NodeSet,
or is owned by another NodeManager, therefore lost that parent
**silently** at import, and nothing downstream could recover it.
`RuntimeNodeSetNodeManager.CreateAddressSpaceAsync` already has a step
that wires references to external node managers; the parent link never
reached it.

Such a parent is now recorded rather than discarded, and exposed through
`UANodeSet.TryGetUnresolvedParentNodeId`. A parent that resolved
normally inside the batch is **not** recorded, so a caller does not
re-wire references that already exist. The record lives in a
`ConditionalWeakTable`, so it does not keep an imported node alive and
does not widen `NodeState` — whose `Handle` is a general-purpose slot a
caller may legitimately use for its own purposes, and so is not a safe
place to leave the value.

`RuntimeNodeSetNodeManager` consumes it to report the one case that
cannot be repaired automatically. In NodeSet2 the `ParentNodeId`
attribute is a *hint*; the authoritative edge is the entry under
`<References>`, which the reverse-reference pass already turns into an
external reference. A node that names an out-of-manager parent but
carries **no such Reference** materializes with no path from that
parent, and no ReferenceType can be inferred to synthesise one — so it
is reported as an authoring defect rather than guessed at or silently
accepted.

This is deliberately **not** a fix for a specific address-space symptom.
It removes a silent loss of authored information and gives callers the
means to act on it. Whether any particular orphaned-node report is
caused by this path, or by namespace-index translation elsewhere, still
needs separate diagnosis.

**Changed while merging.** As authored in #4229 the accessor was
`GetUnresolvedParentNodeId`, returning `NodeId?`. `NodeId` is a readonly
struct implementing `INullable`, so that was a `System.Nullable<NodeId>`
wrapped around a type that already carries its own null representation —
which this repository excludes in favour of an `IsNull` check, and it
asks for `TryGet` over casting on struct types. The tests
correspondingly asserted `Is.Null` against a struct, which the testing
rules also exclude. It is now `bool
TryGetUnresolvedParentNodeId(NodeState, out NodeId)`, yielding
`NodeId.Null` when there is no unresolved parent. The API is unshipped —
it arrives with this branch — so nothing depended on the previous shape.
Both tests were re-verified by mutation after the rewrite: disabling the
record in `LinkParentChildRelationships` still fails
`ImportKeepsAParentThatIsNotInTheSameBatch`.

## Dependencies

- **OpenUSD to `0.7.0-alpha`.** All 11 issues we filed upstream are
fixed, so the workarounds they justified are gone and the parts of the
pump and generator samples that were blocked on them are implemented.
- **ModelContextProtocol to `2.1.0`** across all five MCP tool libraries
and the executable. No code changes were needed — the surface we use is
unchanged in 2.x — but central package management required a cascade of
pins, each commented where it sits. Both transports were verified
against a running server rather than assumed. MCP 2.x is stateless (no
`initialize`, no `Mcp-Session-Id`); an OPC UA session is application
state addressed by a caller-supplied name, which fits that model but
does assume process affinity, and that assumption is now written down
rather than implied.

## Infrastructure

The `code coverage` gate was measuring nothing on this branch and
reporting success. It is fixed and now enforced, which immediately
exposed real gaps — most usefully `RoboticsIntentJson`, which parses
agent-supplied JSON (untrusted input from a language model) and had no
tests at all. It is now at full line coverage in CI. Patch coverage is
**90.20%** against a 75% floor.

The `netstandard2.1` build leg was also failing. The MCP projects build
as empty shells under a legacy `CustomTestTarget`, and the viewer sample
referenced them on the target framework alone, so it tried to resolve a
net10.0 shell from net8.0. The sample now derives MCP support from
whether those projects are actually being built.

## From review

A review pass over the branch found two real defects, both fixed.
`RoboticsIntentJson` parses JSON written by a language model, so every
malformed shape it can be handed is reachable input; it indexed pose
arrays without checking their length and enumerated properties without
checking their kind, so a short or wrongly-typed array escaped as
`IndexOutOfRangeException` or `InvalidOperationException` rather than
the argument error the tool descriptions promise the agent. Separately,
`IntentOperationHandle` treated a zero `QueuePosition` as "not observed"
and discarded it, so a handle kept reporting the last queued position
after the server had said the operation left the queue.

The pose validation immediately caught a latent test defect: the pallet
scenario interpolated doubles into JSON with the current culture, so
under a comma-decimal culture `[0.12, 0.16, 0.28]` became a six-element
array. It passed only because that submission is expected to be refused
for want of authority, so the wrong coordinates were never used.

A third review finding — that a default-constructed
`RobotIntentControllerState` hands out a null `NodeId` — was checked and
rejected: `NodeId`, `QualifiedName` and `LocalizedText` are readonly
structs here, so `default` is the null value and `IsNull` is `true`. The
tests asserting that invariant are kept.

A second review pass over the merged branch found two more, both fixed
and both about an error surfacing as the wrong kind of failure rather
than about a wrong result:

- **Malformed agent JSON did not arrive as an argument error.**
`RoboticsIntentJson` turns every *validation* failure into an
`ArgumentException` — a wrong root kind, a missing property, a short
pose array — but three `JsonDocument.Parse` calls and the NodeId parse
were unguarded. A syntax error escaped as `JsonException` and an
unparseable NodeId as `ServiceResultException`, which are the two shapes
a language model is most likely to produce. That is the same defect
class as the pose/kind checking above: a caller separating bad input
from a genuine fault had to know to catch three unrelated exception
types. Parsing now goes through one helper that reports a syntax error
as an `ArgumentException` naming the argument, keeping the
`JsonException` as the inner exception so the position is not lost, and
the NodeId goes through `NodeId.TryParse` rather than `Parse`,
collapsing its two failure modes into one.
`MalformedIntentJsonIsRejected` had asserted
`InstanceOf<JsonException>`, pinning the behaviour rather than the
intended contract; it now asserts `ArgumentException` like every
neighbouring test, and three tests cover the newly guarded paths.
- **`ConditionalWeakTable.Add` throws on a duplicate key.** Not
reachable today, but `TryGetUnresolvedParentNodeId` documents `Handle`
as a general-purpose slot a caller may use for its own purposes — and a
caller doing exactly that before re-importing into the same collection
would take a hard throw from inside the import pipeline. Removing first
makes the most recent import win. `AddOrUpdate` would say this more
directly but does not exist on `netstandard2.0`.

## Deliberately not fixed here

`FastenIntentDataType.Joint` is refused when the Server exposes no OPC
40450/40451 model, and a client cannot discover that before calling.
That is **not fixable in this repository**: §5.4.2 makes `Joint` the
defining mechanism while §11.3 says the parameters otherwise stand
alone, and `IntentCapabilityDataType` declares capabilities at
intent-type granularity with no member-level mechanism anywhere in the
model. It is a specification gap, raised as S4 on
[marcschier/opcua-drafts#60](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/pull/60)
rather than worked around with a bespoke mechanism the spec does not
define.

## Validation

`dotnet build UA.slnx -c Release` on the merged branch — **0 errors, 0
warnings**, with the AOT analysers now running over `Opc.Ua.Mcp.Core`.

| Suite (net10.0) | Tests |
|---|---|
| `Opc.Ua.Core.Tests` | 4247 (86 skipped) |
| `Opc.Ua.Robotics.Tests` | 540 |
| `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Tests` | 909 |
| `Opc.Ua.Tools.Tests` | 419 |
| `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` — `RuntimeNodeSet` | 94 |
| `Opc.Ua.Robotics.Intent.Tests` | 22 |
| `Opc.Ua.Aot.Tests` — `McpAotTests` | 3 |

0 failures. `Opc.Ua.Tools.Tests` rose from 409 to 419 with the
serializer-equivalence tests from #4228 and the malformed-JSON tests
from the second review pass, and `Opc.Ua.Core.Tests` covers the
`DataGenerator` tests from #4227 and the import tests from #4229.
`UANodeSetHelpers` also passes on **net48** (5/5). The MCP
agent-usability grader scores Core 100 / Full 100.

Marc Schier 4e0b82af5f Add IServerContext and move server startup tasks onto it (#4193)
## Stacked on #4188

Base is `marcschier/server-seam-analysis`, not `master`.
`IServerInternal.cs` and
`ServerInternalData.cs` both diverge from master on that branch (chunk
4c removed the two
`object` locks), so branching off master would conflict on both files
*and* design
`IServerContext` against a stale interface. GitHub retargets the base to
`master`
automatically when #4188 merges. **Review #4188 first.**

Closes part of #4184.

## What this does

`IServerInternal` is a service locator: 56 members, 30-odd of which hand
out one of 20+
subsystems. A component that only needs to observe the server and act on
it has to take the
whole thing, and no signature tells a reader which parts a component
actually touches.

This adds `IServerContext` — the ambient view of a running server — and
moves
`IServerStartupTask` onto it.

```csharp
public interface IServerContext
{
    ServerState CurrentState { get; }
    ServerObjectState ServerObject { get; }
    IServiceMessageContext MessageContext { get; }
    ServerSystemContext DefaultSystemContext { get; }

    ServerSystemContext CreateSystemContext(ISession session);
    T? FindPredefinedNode<T>(NodeId nodeId) where T : NodeState;
    IEnumerable<T> FindNodeManagers<T>() where T : class;

    ValueTask ReportEventAsync(IFilterTarget e, CancellationToken ct = default);
    ValueTask CloseSessionAsync(OperationContext context, NodeId sessionId,
        bool deleteSubscriptions, CancellationToken ct = default);
    ValueTask DeleteSubscriptionAsync(uint subscriptionId, CancellationToken ct = default);

    void UpdateServerDiagnostics(Action<ServerDiagnosticsSummaryDataType> update);
}
```

Nothing on it returns a subsystem. A component that needs one takes it
as a constructor
dependency, which states the requirement instead of hiding it behind an
ambient handle.

`IServerInternal : IServerContext`, so every existing handle already
satisfies the new seam
and consumers migrate one at a time.

## The member set was measured, not guessed

Every member of `IServerInternal` was counted by read site across `src`,
`samples` and
`tests`, split by area. `Ext` is non-test production consumers, which is
what decides
whether something belongs on an ambient interface.

| Member | InServer | OtherSrc | Sample | Test | **Ext** | On
`ISystemContext`? |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---|
| `NamespaceUris` | 63 | 50 | 34 | 131 | **84** | yes |
| `Telemetry` | 58 | 23 | 35 | 5 | **58** | yes |
| `MessageContext` | 2 | 8 | 7 | 11 | **15** | no |
| `TypeTree` | 42 | 3 | 11 | 10 | **14** | yes, as `TypeTable` |
| `NodeManager` | 66 | 7 | 6 | 74 | **13** | no |
| `DefaultSystemContext` | 21 | 4 | 1 | 7 | **5** | no |
| `IdentityRegistry` | 1 | 4 | 1 | 1 | **5** | no |
| `SubscriptionManager` | 23 | 0 | 0 | 17 | **0** | no |
| `SessionManager` | 21 | 0 | 0 | 15 | **0** | no |
| `RequestManager` | 10 | 0 | 0 | 23 | **0** | no |
| `AggregateManager` | 12 | 0 | 0 | 2 | **0** | no |
| `ModellingRulesManager`, `ConformanceUnitsManager`,
`DiagnosticsEnabled` | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | **0** | no |

Two things fall out. The highest-traffic members are already carried by
`ISystemContext`,
which `ServerSystemContext` copies off the server at construction — so
most of those 278
`NamespaceUris` reads are callers reaching through the server for
something they already
hold. And the subsystems with zero external demand are exactly the ones
that should be
injected rather than published.

The check that matters: the eight `IServerStartupTask` implementations
in
`Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Server` are the heaviest real consumer of the ambient
handle, and
between them they touch **eight distinct members**. That is the shape
the interface is cut
to.

## Commits

### `e4a912eb` Remove seven unused members from `IServerInternal`

The deletion test, applied before anything is designed against the
interface.

| Removed | Evidence |
|---|---|
| `CloseSession(OperationContext, NodeId, bool)` | zero call sites;
sync-over-async; already obsolete |
| `ReadServerDiagnostics<TResult>` | zero production sites — **added one
commit earlier in #4188 for symmetry and never called** |
| `ModellingRulesManager` | property never read; `ServerInternalData`
owns the lifetime |
| `ConformanceUnitsManager` | same |
| `DiagnosticsEnabled` | façade over
`IDiagnosticsNodeManager.DiagnosticsEnabled`, which is what callers use
|
| `Status` | one site, itself inside an obsolete method |
| `ServerDiagnostics` | only reachable through the diagnostics methods
that replaced it |

`EndpointAddresses` was kept — `Opc.Ua.Di.Tests` uses it to resolve an
endpoint URL. Thin,
but real.

The only build fallout was three lines in one test assembly.
`Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Server`,
`Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Kubernetes`, `Opc.Ua.Gds.Server.Common`,
`Opc.Ua.WotCon.Server`,
`Opc.Ua.PubSub.Server`, `Opc.Ua.Di.Server`, `ConsoleReferenceServer` and
`Quickstarts.Servers` all built untouched. That is the evidence the
members were dead.

### `ffcc80b9` Add `IServerContext`

Additive. `ServerInternalData` implements it; no caller changes.

### `e8c4e15f` Hand startup tasks `IServerContext`

Nine implementations, `OpcUaServerHostedService`, and the test call
sites.

### `1b4de97a` Drop the `IServerStartupTask` migration-guide section

Review feedback. `IServerStartupTask` does not exist in `master378`, so
it is a 2.0-only
concept and nobody migrating from 1.5.378 can own an implementation of
it. The **Removed
members on `IServerInternal`** section stays - those members *are* in
master378 - and is now
self-contained.

### `2ab7d689` Merge `marcschier/server-seam-analysis`

Picks up the base branch including its merge of master. Textually clean,
no conflicts.

### `6a650f12` Migrate `RobotIntentHostStartupTask` to `IServerContext`

The merge was textually clean but **semantically broken**: master's
Robot Intent feature
(#4165) added a tenth `IServerStartupTask` implementation written
against the old
`IServerInternal` signature, so it no longer satisfied the interface.
Its body walked
`server.NodeManager.AsyncNodeManagers` and type-tested each entry for
`RobotIntentNodeManager` - exactly the pattern `FindNodeManagers<T>()`
replaces - so it
migrated the same way as the other nine. `FindNodeManagers` also
searches the synchronous
registry and de-dupes by reference, so a manager registered on both
faces still starts its
intent controller hosts exactly once.

## Three findings from migrating real consumers

**`MessageContext` is not derivable.** The design had callers use
`DefaultSystemContext.AsMessageContext()`, on the reasoning that a
message context can be
built from a system context. It can't: that conversion carries the
namespace tables and the
factory but **not** `MaxStringLength`, `MaxArrayLength` or
`MaxByteStringLength`. Four
replication paths in `Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Server` would have silently
fallen back to default
decoding limits — a component quietly accepting more than the server is
configured to. It
is a real member, and the interface documents why.

**`new`-shadowed members split the mock surface.** `IServerInternal`
first redeclared
`DefaultSystemContext` with a narrower type and `CurrentState` with a
setter. That
compiles, but a shadowed member is a *second interface slot*: production
code calling
through `IServerContext` read a slot that every existing
`Mock<IServerInternal>` leaves
unstubbed. Seventeen tests went from passing to `NullReferenceException`
**while still
compiling**. The narrower typing bought no encapsulation anyway — the
object really is a
`ServerSystemContext` and any caller can cast — so both shadows are
gone. `CurrentState` is
read-only on the ambient interface and the one site that assigns it uses
the concrete type,
as `GetStatus` already does.

**`IServiceProvider` is deliberately *not* on `OnServerStartedAsync`.**
The plan sketched
it. All nine implementations already receive their dependencies through
their constructors
from the builder extensions, so a container on the callback would have
replaced one service
locator with another.

## `FindNodeManagers<T>`

Two tasks walked `server.NodeManager.NodeManagers` and type-tested each
entry for
`ILocalAddressSpaceSource`; two more reached for a specific manager to
cast it to a
capability. Asking for the capability says what the caller wants; asking
for the registry
says how to find it.

```csharp
// before
foreach (INodeManager nodeManager in server.NodeManager.NodeManagers)
{
    if (nodeManager is not ILocalAddressSpaceSource source) { continue; }
    ...
}

// after
foreach (ILocalAddressSpaceSource source in server.FindNodeManagers<ILocalAddressSpaceSource>())
{
    ...
}
```

It searches both the asynchronous and synchronous registries:
`ToSyncNodeManager()` returns
`this` when a manager already implements `INodeManager`, so the two
lists overlap and a
capability may sit on either face.

## Tests

Mock harnesses are **wired, not stubbed** — they return the node
managers and contexts the
tests already build, so the tests keep asserting against real behaviour
rather than against
a mock that returns whatever is convenient. Four new tests cover
`CreateSystemContext`
(identity/locale propagation, null guard), the explicit
`DefaultSystemContext` identity,
and `FindPredefinedNode` before the address space is bound.

All twelve dependent assemblies and samples build clean on both TFMs,
zero warnings.

| `SourceGeneration_Core_Tests_windows` (net48) |
`GenerateAndCompileDesignFileAsync(..., CSharp11, ...)` fails with
`CS9058: Feature 'Lock object' is not available in C# 11.0` because
generated `Opc.Ua.NodeStates.g.cs` emits `System.Threading.Lock`.
**Identical failure on base #4188 (build 16737)**, which contains none
of these commits. This PR touches no source-generation file. |
| `SourceGeneration_Core_Tests_windows` (net10.0) | Same root cause;
also failing on base #4188. |
| `PubSub_Eth_Tests_windows` (net48) | Agent DNS outage:
`NuGetToolInstaller` died with `ERR:getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND
dist.nuget.org`. The job aborted before restore/build, so **the test
step never executed**. Infra flake; needs a re-run, not a code change. |

Both `SourceGeneration.Core` failures belong to the base branch and
should be fixed there
rather than papered over here.

## Correction to the recorded plan

Chunk 7 (the frozen bind phase) was recorded as the largest mechanical
footprint remaining
and the one most likely to stall. It isn't: **each of the 12 `Set*`
mutators has exactly one
call site**, in the `StandardServer` wiring, plus one sample. It is a
~13 call-site change.
The 268-file figure that produced that assessment counted files
*referencing*
`IServerInternal`, which chunk 7 never has to touch, because the
interface survives and only
the mutators move off it.

## Docs

`docs/MigrationGuide.md` gains one section: the removed
`IServerInternal` members with their
replacements, plus the note that `MessageContext`,
`DefaultSystemContext`, `CurrentState`,
`ServerObject`, `ReportEventAsync`, `CloseSessionAsync`,
`DeleteSubscriptionAsync` and
`UpdateServerDiagnostics` moved *down* to `IServerContext` and stay
reachable through
`IServerInternal` unchanged, so no call site has to move.

An earlier revision also documented the `IServerStartupTask` signature
change there. That
was dropped after review (1b4de97a4): `IServerStartupTask` does not
exist in `master378`, so
it is a 2.0-only concept and nobody migrating from 1.5.378 can own an
implementation of it.
The rationale for the ambient view - including the `AsMessageContext()`
decoding-limit trap -
lives on the `IServerContext` and `IServerStartupTask` XML docs instead,
which is where a
2.0-only concept belongs.

## Reviewer questions

- `IServerContext` is 11 members, not the 9 the design targeted.
`MessageContext` and
`FindNodeManagers<T>` were added because migrating real consumers showed
the alternatives
were wrong (silent decoding-limit loss) or a pass-through
(`NodeManager.NodeManagers` plus
  a type test at every call site). Reasonable?
- `IServerInternal : IServerContext` keeps the fat interface alive on
purpose — it is what
makes this a signature change rather than a 268-file rewrite. It only
shrinks once the DI
migration lands. The 6a deletions are unconditional, so even a full
stall leaves it seven
  members smaller.

Copilot 404517c6e8 [MigrationAnalyzer] Generate public collection shims to unblock incremental 1.5.378 → 2.0 migration (#4214)
# Description

MigrationAnalyzer-generated `<Type>Collection` shims were emitted as
`internal`, which breaks consumers exposing these types in public APIs
during migration. This change makes generated shims `public` while
preserving `[Obsolete]` + `UA0002` guidance.

- **Generator output access level**
  - `MigrationGenerator` now emits:
    - `public sealed [Obsolete] class <Name>Collection : List<TElement>`
- No behavior changes to element-type resolution, deduplication, or
diagnostics (`MIG01`).

- **Targeted generator test updates**
- Updated assertions in `MigrationGeneratorTests` to validate `public
sealed class ...` output for:
    - well-known overrides,
    - semantic lookup for model types,
    - semantic lookup for built-in and primitive element types.

- **Migration docs alignment**
- Updated migration analyzer docs to reflect public shim generation and
removed outdated internal-only guidance.

```csharp
[global::System.Obsolete("... (UA0002)")]
public sealed class Int32Collection : global::System.Collections.Generic.List<int>
{
    public static implicit operator global::Opc.Ua.ArrayOf<int>(Int32Collection? value)
        => value is null ? default : value.ToArrayOf();
}
```

Marc Schier e05a820c91 Removal of the exposed diagnostics and node locks (#4188)
## What this is

Design analysis for `Opc.Ua.Server`, the two rounds of design
exploration behind it, and the first two implementation chunks it
recommends.

Draft: the analyses are ready to read, but the *conclusions* deserve
discussion before the larger phases proceed. Later chunks stack onto
this PR as they land.

| File | Kind | Lines |
|---|---|---:|
| `plans/NodeManagerAnalysis.md` | Evidence — the node-manager plugin
surface | 488 |
| `plans/ServerRuntimeAnalysis.md` | Evidence — the server runtime
cluster | 576 |
| `plans/ServerDesignExploration.md` | Design round 2 — delivery
strategy | 1,394 |
| `plans/ServerDesignExplorationAlt.md` | Design round 1 — four
interface designs | 2,119 |
| `src/Opc.Ua.Types/State/NodeState.cs` | **Code** — node self-guards
attributes | |
| `src/Opc.Ua.Types/State/BaseVariableState.cs` | **Code** — value
accessors take the lock | |
| `src/Opc.Ua.Server/NodeManager/AsyncCustomNodeManager.cs` | **Code** —
6 external locks removed | |
| `tests/…/NodeStateAttributeConcurrencyTests.cs` | **Code** —
concurrency safety net | 449 |

`docs/` is untouched — it holds shipped feature documentation, and none
of this is shipped API.

## The analyses

Counted mechanically over `src`, `samples` and `tests`; **every figure
is reproducible** from commands printed in each document.

**Node manager surface.** `AsyncCustomNodeManager` declares **93
`virtual`/`abstract` members** (80 distinct names). Across the
repository: **112 override sites, 25 distinct names ever overridden, 55
of 80 never**. Six carry nearly all real use. For scale,
`ReferenceNodeManager` is 6,373 lines and overrides **8**.

**Server runtime.** Seven findings, **two of which recommend no
change**. Findings 1–5 are filed as #4183–#4187. The headline is an
`object`-typed sync root published on three public interfaces and taken
in **88 `lock` statements across 7 files**, including a shipped sample.

**What is deliberately not flagged.** `IStandardServer` — 9 members over
5,575 lines, 16 of 37 virtuals used — is identified as the reference
shape to preserve. `IApplicationInstance` and the already-`[Obsolete]`
`Stop()` are examined and left alone.

## The design exploration

**Round 1** explored four alternative interfaces in parallel under the
current back-compat constraint. Its value is the convergence: four
designers who never saw each other's work independently arrived at a 6–9
member `IServerContext` replacing the 57-member locator, removal of the
`object` node-manager handle, elimination of the `Processed` protocol,
and `IHistorianProvider` as the pattern to copy.

**Round 2** re-runs it with back-compat lifted and asks how to deliver:
full rewrite versus side-by-side fork. **Both option designers
independently declined to recommend their own assignment.** Three
structural facts were verified:

1. **The fork line already sits at `IAsyncNodeManager`** — old and new
node managers can coexist with zero runtime changes, so a fork
duplicates ~10% of the assembly, not all of it.
2. **`[OpcUaShim]` cannot shim an inheritance surface** — honest
auto-fix ceiling for the authoring surface is **~10%**, against ~70% for
the shipped analyzers.
3. **A second lock leak exists** — `NodeState` takes `lock (this)` under
a `CA2002` suppression whose own comment documents the contract.

Recommendation: **neither pure option**, but a staged path reaching the
rewrite end state incrementally, gated on migrating the five
framework-internal node managers that today make it impossible for the
old base to ever freeze.

## Implementation: NodeState now guards its own attributes

This removes the prose-only contract in which `NodeState` took
`lock(this)` and every external caller was required to take
`lock(source)` on the node instance. The code already carried a TODO
describing exactly this fix and noting it required updating every
external site.

- The node self-guards rather than relying on callers.
`BaseVariableState` gains a **fully private** `System.Threading.Lock`
covering its value fields; `NodeState`'s other collections keep their
existing private locks.
- All **6** `lock(this)` sites and both `CA2002`/`RCS1059` suppressions
are gone.
- `Value`, `Timestamp` and `StatusCode` on `BaseVariableState` take the
lock too — without that, a direct property write raced an attribute read
once the external lock was gone.
- **6 of 9** external sites removed. Five were already redundant
(`GetReferences`, `GetChildren`, `ReferenceExists` and
`SetAreEventsMonitored` guard themselves; `FindMethod` reaches its state
via `GetChildren`); the sixth was an attribute read now covered by the
node's own lock.
- Attribute read/write deliberately take **no** node-wide lock: both
dispatch to caller-supplied handlers (`OnReadValue` and siblings) that
may take locks of their own, and holding a lock on the node across one
gives the node no fixed place in the lock order.
- **3 deliberately retained and annotated in code**: two `CreateBrowser`
calls, which are not internally synchronized (tracked in #4216), and one
in `CustomNodeManager`, whose class is slated for deletion so
refactoring its lock would be wasted work.

### No lock is exposed anywhere, to anyone

An earlier revision put the attribute lock on `NodeState` as `private
protected`, which still published a lock-sharing contract on the
inheritance surface. Review pushed back and it is gone:
`BaseVariableState` was the only user, so the lock moved there as a
plain `private readonly Lock`. There is no member for a derived type to
call, in this assembly or any other.

`BaseVariableValue` was the last public leak — it handed out the lock
guarding its value through a `public Lock` property, so any caller could
hold it across a call back into the stack. That property is removed:

- Derived value classes (what the source generator emits for every
structure variable) synchronize through a `protected EnterLock()` /
`ExitLock()` pair. Callback helpers were the first choice, but the
generated bodies pass `ref Variant` / `ref StatusCode` / `ref
DateTimeUtc`, and `ref` arguments cannot be captured by a lambda. The
lock *object* stays private either way.
- `NodeStateTemplates` emits the new form.
- `ServerInternalData`, the one cross-assembly caller, was reading the
lock back off a value it had itself constructed with that lock. It now
takes `m_diagnosticsLock` directly.

`NodeBrowser.DataLock` remains `protected` and is tracked in #4215: a
subclass extending `Next()` legitimately needs its enumeration state
atomic with the base browser's, so the fix needs a base-owned
acquisition rather than a deletion.

### Migration coverage for the removed lock members

None of the removed lock members get an `[Obsolete]` shim, and the
migration guide now says why: a shim would have to be `object`-typed to
keep old call sites compiling, and on .NET 9+ `lock (o)` on a
statically-`object` reference is `Monitor.Enter`, which does **not**
interlock with `Lock.Enter()`. It would compile, run, and silently
synchronize nothing — strictly worse than a compile error. Re-adding a
member to a downstream-implemented interface is also a break in its own
right on `net48` / `netstandard2.0`, where there are no default
interface methods.

Instead, every removed member has a named replacement on the migration
path:

| Rule | Covers | Replacement it names |
|---|---|---|
| `UA0024` | `IServerInternal` / `ISession` / `ISubscription`
`DiagnosticsLock`, `DiagnosticsWriteLock` |
`UpdateServerDiagnostics(...)` / `UpdateDiagnostics(...)`,
`ReadServerDiagnostics` / `ReadDiagnostics` |
| `UA0025` | `ILocalNode.DataLock`, `Node.DataLock` | a lock the caller
owns; the node guards its own state |
| `UA0026` | `BaseVariableValue.Lock` | a lock passed to the
`BaseVariableValue` constructor |

Each rule fires on sources still written against 1.5.378, where the
compiler only says a member is missing. `docs/MigrationGuide.md` gains a
section per removal with before/after.

### The tests earned their keep

The four concurrency tests were landed **first**, against the unmodified
code, because removing a synchronization contract cannot be verified by
the compiler and the existing `NodeStateHandlerConcurrencyTests` covers
a different concern (racing a handler assignment against a write, not
reader/writer exclusion). They now run with **no external locking**,
which is what demonstrates the node guards itself.

They caught two real problems, and one of them was mine:

- The `Value`/`StatusCode`/`Timestamp` setters bypassed the new lock — a
genuine race.
- One test asserted an invariant the design does not offer. Two property
setters are two lock acquisitions, so that pair was **never** atomic; it
only passed originally because the test held a lock across both. It now
uses a single attribute write carrying a whole `DataValue`, which
genuinely is atomic and is the path the server uses.

A third issue was found and fixed before it shipped: the reader loops
gated on `!writer.IsCompleted`, so a reader scheduled after the writer
finished performed zero reads — failing two runs in three on `net48`.
Converted to `do…while`; now five consecutive green runs.

**Verified:** `Stack.State` 116 passed on `net10.0` *and* `net48`; the
concurrency category green 5/5 consecutive on `net48`;
`Opc.Ua.Types.Tests` 8,456 passed; the server node-manager suite 1,205
passed, including `NodeManagerLifecycleTests` and
`AsyncCustomNodeManagerTests` which exercise the changed paths.

## Two corrections to my own published figures

Both were found while starting implementation, and both are recorded on
#4183.

**`ForceDiagnosticsScan()` was overstated.** The analysis claimed the
`DiagnosticsWriteLock` getter *"triggers a full address-space
diagnostics rescan"*. It is in fact a single flag assignment
(`DiagnosticsNodeManager.cs:700-703`) consumed by the read paths and the
periodic timer. The defect stands — a side-effecting property getter
with a racy write on a synchronisation path — but its cost was
misstated.

**The contract was 15 sites, not 19.** A naive search matched ten
comment and `#pragma` lines that *mention* `lock(source)` while
explaining it. The documents now carry a counting command that excludes
comment matches.

A third finding expanded scope the other way: the `object`-typed lock
leak is **repo-wide**, with ten such members across `Opc.Ua.Core`,
`Opc.Ua.Types` and `Opc.Ua.Server` — including `Node.DataLock => this`
and `ApplicationConfiguration.PropertiesLock => m_properties`, the same
defect class as `Subscription.DiagnosticsLock`.

## Caveats stated in the documents

- **Nothing in the designs is implemented or benchmarked.** Every
performance claim across all seven designs is a design intention, not a
measurement.
- The larger phases are a **major undertaking against a live plugin
API**; the documents say so rather than letting the neatness of the
proposals imply otherwise.
- The recommended sequencing puts low-risk, self-contained steps first
and notes they are **worth doing regardless** of which strategy is
eventually chosen.
- Round 2 notes the two option designers' cost estimates are **not
independent of their assignments**.

## Review guidance

The two analyses make factual claims checkable by running the included
commands. The design explorations are exploratory and need not be agreed
with to merge. The code change is small, test-backed, and independent of
which delivery strategy is eventually chosen.

Reasonable outcomes include merging as-is, merging only the analyses and
the lock fix, or disagreeing with the recommendation while keeping the
evidence.

Marc Schier 0612a43fe4 Pluggable cryptography and hardware-held private keys (#4192)
Makes the stack's cryptographic operations replaceable - by another library, an offboard service, or hardware (TPM 2.0 / HSM / PKCS#11 token / cloud KMS) - with no performance cost in the default configuration, and extends this to certificates so a private key need never exist in process memory.

Also fixes three pre-existing defects found while validating: STACKGEN001 erroring for every compilation the stack generator was merely loaded into, certificates failing to load from paths past MAX_PATH on Windows, and the MonitoredNode2 tests starving the thread pool.

Marc Schier 2b44fcad22 Robot intent: a task-level command API with a Part 10 lifecycle (#4165)
# Description

Implement the draft **OPC UA — Robot Intent** companion model end to
end: task-level motion verbs, a Part 10 lifecycle, a server hosting
surface, a client, two samples and a live integration suite. It replaces
the opt-in convention API merged in #4127 with an implementation
generated from a companion information model.

## Why

OPC 40010-1 *Robotics* describes robot **topology** in detail and
defines **no motion verbs at all** — its entire actuation surface is
`Start`, `Stop` and loading a named program. A conformant client can
discover everything about a robot's construction and cannot ask it to
move anywhere. #4127 filled that gap with ten verbs in an
application-owned namespace, resolved by BrowseName, and the file said
what it was: *"opt-in, explicitly non-normative industrial operation
conventions"*.

That contribution established a **vocabulary**. It established no
**lifecycle**, and the lifecycle is the harder half.

A motion takes seconds; a pick takes a minute. OPC 10000-4 §5.12.2
discards a method result when the Session ends *"independent of the task
actually performed at the Server"* — so a synchronous motion method does
not merely time out, it **loses the outcome of work that has already
physically happened**. OPC 10000-10 §4.1 gives the OPC Foundation's own
resolution: a Method performs a calculation, a **Program** runs a batch
process or a machine tool part program.

So `SubmitIntent` returns as soon as the intent is *admitted*, and what
it returns is a NodeId — an `IntentOperationState` (a Part 10 program
instance) the client subscribes to for progress and reads for the
result.

## What changed

**Model and shared code** — `Opc.Ua.RobotIntent.NodeSet2.xml` is
source-generated in `Opc.Ua.Robotics`, so the enums, the polymorphic
intent structures, `IntentOperationState : ProgramStateMachineState`,
the method states and the typed clients derive from the model rather
than being hand-written. Its only `RequiredModel` is the base UA
namespace, so a server can adopt it without OPC 40010 or DI. `PoseMath`
implements the specification's Annex C conversion between its unit
quaternion and the core `ThreeDFrame` — including the `asin` clamp that
stops a pole orientation becoming a domain error, and the
non-negative-`w` representative that makes two servers agree on four
numbers. `FrameTree` composes transforms along the frame tree.

**Verbs are a DataType hierarchy, not one Method each.** A single
submission and a mission step are then the same shape, and a new intent
is a subtype rather than a new method — which is what
`AddOperation<TRequest,TResponse>` was working around.

**Server** — `IntentControllerHost` owns admission in the
specification's order, the queue with PLCopen buffer modes, blending,
cancellation *with the server's right to refuse*, missions with a
committed base and a revisable horizon plus an IEC 61131-3 step graph,
safety-aware refusals, real-time channel brokerage, and the capability
declaration. All thirteen Methods are wired; command authority and
channel leases are released when the holding Session closes; every
client-supplied NodeId is validated against the controller being
commanded (clause 11.3). `RobotIntentNodeManager`, the fluent
`IIntentControllerBuilder` and `AddRobotIntent`/`ConfigureRobotIntent`
make it reachable, and `RobotIntentFacetCalculator` computes which of
the specification's facets an instance actually satisfies.

**Client** — `RobotIntentClient` discovers
`Server/RobotIntent/Controllers` and reads what a robot accepts;
`IntentOperationHandle` subscribes and completes on a terminal state,
recovering the result after a reconnect because clause 6.7 promises it
survives; `CommandAuthorityLease` and `RealTimeChannelLease` manage the
two exclusive resources; fluent builders cover every intent and mission.

**Samples** — all robotics samples move under `samples/Robotics/`.
`IntentEnabledRobot` is one UR5e-style offset-wrist arm on a bench,
declared completely enough to show what a conformant server publishes,
with a simulated safety source so the clause 10.4 refusals are
demonstrable. `IntentViewerClient` turns a **click on a target prim in
the OpenUSD viewport** into an intent and watches the arm execute it; it
also runs headless, which is how CI exercises it.

**Intents execute serially**, which satisfies every `BlockingMode`
constraint by construction: the specification forbids beginning a
`Single` or `Hard` intent while another executes and merely *permits*
`None` and `Soft` to overlap.

The convention API (`RoboticsOperationConventions`,
`RoboticsOperationsBuilders`, `RoboticsOperationsClient`) is removed.

### On safety — what this deliberately does *not* claim

The interface is **non-safety-rated**, and that is a property of the
technology rather than a scoping choice. OPC 10000-15 carries cyclic
safety data from a SafetyProvider to a SafetyConsumer; the consumer's
`RequestSPDU` holds an identifier, a monitoring number and one octet of
explicitly **non-safety** flags, so a caller has no channel through
which to supply safety-rated arguments. Every safety fieldbus
(PROFIsafe, CIP Safety, FSoE, openSAFETY) expresses a safety command as
a **continuously asserted cyclic signal**, because the integrity
argument rests on the fail-safe state that follows when assertion
*stops* — and a Method call has no defined behaviour when it stops being
called.

What the host does instead is **observe and refuse**:
`UpdateSafetyState` is how the application reports what the safety
system is enforcing, and admission then refuses on the same values a
client can read, so a refusal is explainable from the address space
rather than from Server-internal state. It may never *instruct* the
safety system, and no Method here commands a safe motion function,
changes an operational mode or clears a stop.

## Defects this found in the specification, fixed upstream

Implementing a specification is the only way to find out whether it can
be implemented. Seven defects went back to
[marcschier/opcua-drafts#47](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/pull/47)
rather than being worked around here:

- **Refusal was unobservable.** Clause 6.2 orders six distinct refusals
and clause 5.8 calls the failure set "small and diagnosable on purpose"
— but `SubmitIntent` returned only `IntentId` and `Operation`, so a
client could see *that* something was refused and never *which*. It now
returns `Accepted`, `Failure` and `Message`, and clause 6.2 states that
a refusal returns `Good` rather than substituting a Bad `StatusCode`.
- **The Part 10 promotion was illegal.**
`IntentOperationType.ProgramDiagnostic` was declared as a Property of
`PropertyType`; OPC 10000-10 declares it a Variable of
`ProgramDiagnostic2Type` reached by `HasComponent`. The declaration
added a *second* member beside the inherited one instead of promoting it
— which is precisely why an earlier version of this branch had deleted
it. Correcting the TypeDefinition made it generate cleanly with **no
change to the curated Core**.
- **Clause 9 said nothing about the Method surface.** A server could
declare `MissionsSupported` true and omit `SubmitMission` entirely,
because the mission and channel Methods are Optional. This
implementation did exactly that until an integration test caught it. A
fourth honesty rule and a table now fix which Methods each declaration
implies.
- **Conformance was not machine-readable, and two implementations
disagreed.** Clause 12 defined conformance in terms of facets and gave a
Server nowhere to publish which ones it satisfied, so every client had
to re-derive Table 12.2 from the address space. This repository proved
why that fails: the server''s `RobotIntentFacetCalculator` and the
client''s `RobotIntentRules.DeriveFacets` each implemented clause 12.2
independently and **disagreed on essentially every row** — the client''s
`Blending` was `BlendingSupported` alone where the server also requires
all four blending buffer modes, its `QueuedIntents` was `MaxQueueDepth >
0` where the server also requires `Buffered`. A client and server from
the same release answered "does this controller conform?" differently,
and both were reading the specification correctly, because several rows
are behavioural and no amount of browsing settles them.
`IntentCapabilitiesType` now carries **`SupportedFacets`**, exactly as
OPC 10000-5 does with `ServerCapabilitiesType.ServerProfileArray`,
RI-Base requires it, and clause 12.2 separates structural requirements a
Server shall meet before listing a facet from attested ones governed by
clause 9.
- `WaitIntentDataType.Signal` was unbounded where clause 11.3 has to
check it; §11.3 gained a table fixing the expected type of every
NodeId-valued member; §5.7.0 gave `Ready`/`ActiveIntent`/`ActiveMission`
normative meaning; §6.9 bounded `RequestedLease`; §6.5 and §6.4 now say
what a server that cannot differentiate `StopMode` must do, and which
stop a superseded intent gets.

## Bugs the tests and reviews caught

Each of these would have been silent in the field:

- **The execution engine was never wired into the public API.**
`IntentControllerBuilder.RegisterAsync` built the address space and
never started an `IntentControllerHost`, so through the documented
`AddRobotIntent` → `ConfigureRobotIntent` path **every Method returned
`BadNotImplemented`** and the registered `IIntentExecutor` was never
resolved. A browsable address space is not a working robot interface,
and only a live integration test showed the difference.
- **NodeId scoping failed open on an empty index.** A controller
advertising `CallProgramIntentDataType` with no published `ProgramType`
accepted an *arbitrary* NodeId as `CallProgram.Program` — and
`CallProgram` runs code the server holds.
- **Blending completed the predecessor at submission time** and
abandoned its motion, telling the client it succeeded and publishing an
all-zero pose at the origin as a genuine `AchievedPose`.
- **Mission base immutability compared only identifiers**, so a client
could keep the ids and swap the *motion* of an already-committed step.
- **`FinalResultData/Result` was never registered** with the node
manager: Browse showed it, Read returned `BadNodeIdUnknown` — so clause
6.7's promise to a Part 10 client did not hold.
- `DisposeAsync` disposed primitives out from under in-flight executor
code; re-using a terminated `IntentId` destroyed the retained result and
duplicated a NodeId; neither side registered the Robot Intent
encodeables, so `Pose3DDataType` did not decode; host startup was hooked
to a task that ran in only one hosting shape.
- The result was published **after** the state went terminal;
capabilities were resolved against a stale namespace table; an empty
`ContentFilter` arrives as an empty element array rather than a null
filter, so testing only for null made every unconditional mission
transition silently untaken — a mission would run its first step and
stop.

### Found by a later test-quality audit, after the above was written

An audit of the test suite itself found five tests whose **names**
asserted a normative requirement while their **code** asserted something
weaker or nothing at all. The worst **fabricated the answer it
checked**: a helper caught a decode failure and invented "5 supported
intents, 6 axes, all facets true", so six capability-honesty assertions
across four tests could pass while reading nothing from the server. The
fallback is gone and the suite passes with honest reads.

Chasing the facet gaps it reported led to the clause 12 defect above.
Two further defects followed from completing that work:

- **`RI-Interop-40010` was never computed**, and the code documented the
omission as impossible to fix "because the calculator receives only a
Robot Intent controller, not the linked OPC 40010 model". That was
wrong: Annex B's structural requirement is an **inverse**
`HasIntentController` reference, reachable from `IntentControllerState`
— and the integration suite was already browsing exactly that. A server
implementing Annex B could not claim Annex B.
- **The published claim could go stale.** `SupportedFacets` was a
snapshot taken during `RegisterAsync`, so a reference attached
afterwards left it wrong. It is now bound through `BindRead` and
recomputed on read, so the claim tracks the address space by
construction rather than by discipline — which matters for anyone
bolting Robot Intent onto an existing OPC 40010 node manager, where the
attach ordering is often not theirs to choose.

Two tests that **could not fail** were also replaced: one asserted
`AccessLevel` equals `CurrentRead` to pin a read-only marking, but
`BaseVariableState` initialises every variable to exactly that, so
deleting the marking left it green; it is now a write expecting
`BadNotWritable`, including a real OPC UA `Write` service call over a
live session.

Finally, a build break that a plain build hides: `RoboticsAotTests` used
`out string?` in a project declaring `<Nullable>disable</Nullable>`.
Building the project **without** `-f` suppresses `CS8632` through
`NoWarn=nullable` and succeeds; building it **with** `-f net10.0`
resolves `NoWarn` differently, `CS8632` fires, and
`TreatWarningsAsErrors` makes it an error. CI builds per-TFM, so this
would have failed there while passing every local build to that point.

## Testing and coverage

| | |
|---|---|
| `dotnet build UA.slnx -t:Rebuild` | **0 errors, 2 warnings** — both
pre-existing `CA1861` in `tests/Opc.Ua.Tools.Tests`, a file this PR does
not touch |
| **Whole `UA.slnx` test suite, net10.0** | **50 of 52 assemblies fully
green** (measured at `40d9cf213`, before the `master` merge; the other
two are explained below) |
| `Opc.Ua.Robotics.Tests` | **467** net10.0, **447** net48 |
| `Opc.Ua.Robotics.Intent.Tests` (live client <-> server) | **20** on
net10.0 and net48, run repeatedly |
| `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Tests` | **904** after merging `master` (664 before;
the rest arrive with #4160 / #4162 / #4180) |
| `Opc.Ua.Aot.Tests` | **121/121** |
| `Opc.Ua.Di.Tests` (regression from the sample move) | **364/365**, one
pre-existing skip |
| **Changed-line coverage** | **90.7 %**, no file below 80 % —
comfortably above the enforced band, which after #4158 applies only to
patches larger than 100 changed lines |

The two non-green assemblies are **not** caused by this branch. Rather
than assert that, I ran the same selections at the merge-base
`ae241b662` on the same machine:

-
`ServiceCallReassemblerTests.PrivateRequestSummaryFormatsKnownRequestKinds`
expects `12.5` and gets `12,5` — a culture-sensitive assertion failing
on a European locale. Fails 4/4 on **both** commits.
-
`CertRotationLiveTests.L2Cert2RotateCertificateDuringServerRestartRecoversSharedChannelAsync`
fails on a teardown count. Fails 4/4 on **both** commits.
- A third failure seen once, AOT `FindServersAsync` with
`BadSecureChannelClosed`, did not reproduce: 4/4 on retest and 121/121
in the final run. Environmental.

Two things are worth calling out because they would otherwise be
invisible:

- `tools/**` is **not** in the `coverage-thresholds.json` ignore list,
and no test project referenced the OpenUSD tools assemblies — so their
changed lines counted as uncovered and the real patch figure was 75 %,
exactly the blocking threshold. Rather than widening the ignore list,
the pure decisions in the viewport host (pointer-to-physical-pixel
conversion, `RenderPickRequest` construction, stale-retry, backend
discovery, pick-mode selection) were separated from the Avalonia/native
shell and tested headless against a fake picking backend.
- `dotnet build UA.slnx` **hides warnings on unchanged projects**; only
`-t:Rebuild` surfaces them. That is how a `CA2263` introduced by a net48
portability fix survived several "zero warning" builds.

The multi-target requirement earned its keep repeatedly: it caught a
default interface implementation, `ArgumentNullException.ThrowIfNull`,
`string.Create` with an interpolated handler,
`ValueTask.FromResult`/`CompletedTask`, `Task.WaitAsync`, generic
`Enum.GetValues` and generic `Enum.IsDefined`, and a non-generic
`TaskCompletionSource` — none of which the net10.0 build complained
about. A net10.0-**only** hang in the simulated executor and two
load-sensitive flaky tests were also found and fixed at the cause.

### Merged with `master`

`master` (through `e73e71184`) is merged in as `08205d81d`. Four
conflicts, all where the two branches touched the same robot and OpenUSD
surfaces, and none resolved by dropping a side:

- #4162 added six files to `samples/MinimalRobotServer/` while this
branch moved that directory to `samples/Robotics/MinimalRobotServer/`.
They are kept at the moved path, and `UA.slnx` takes the union of both
sides' new projects.
- #4160 replaced `object` with a `UsdValue` union and rewrote `Flatten`;
this branch had reformatted the same method and fixed a path in its doc
comment. Git produced a hybrid that did not compile. The resolution
keeps `master`'s `UsdValue` arm and `Flatten(UsdValue)` overload in this
branch's block-bodied form, with the path fix retained.
- `master` inserted `FindStageCamera` directly before two methods this
branch had relocated, so the merge duplicated `WriteStageUsda` and
`GetPrivateStateRoot`. Only `FindStageCamera` is genuinely new —
`master`'s diff shows the other two as unmodified context — so the
duplicates are dropped and this branch's `internal` versions kept,
including the `GetPrivateStateRoot(string?)` overload the connector
tests use to stay out of the real user profile.
- `master` moved the OpenUSD stack to `0.4.0-alpha`; this branch pins
`OpenUsd.Rendering` in the test project so the renderer-pick tests can
reach the picking backend. Left at `0.1.0-alpha` that pin is below what
the viewer now resolves transitively, which is `CS1705`. The pin follows
`master`.

CI was green on `baaf35e9` with **190 checks passing and none failing**,
across every build leg (net472 / net48 / netstandard2.0 / netstandard2.1
/ net8.0 / net9.0 / net10.0, Debug and Release) and the full test matrix
on Windows and Linux. Since then `master` has been merged twice more and
two CI-stability fixes landed (see below), so the current head is
re-running. Locally, `dotnet build UA.slnx -t:Rebuild` gives **0
errors** and the 2 pre-existing `CA1861` warnings; Robotics **467**
net10.0 / **447** net48, Robot Intent **20** on both, OpenUSD **904**,
AOT **121/121**, source generation **3771**.

### Review round

Five reviewers over disjoint areas found defects worth calling out, all
fixed in `3ffec2c1`:

- **A refused mission step was reported `Succeeded`.** The advance path
returned the same `false` for "steps exhausted" and "step refused", so a
protective stop between steps told a supervisory system the mission had
completed while the robot stood halted with work unexecuted.
- **Three attacker-controlled NodeIds reached the executor unvalidated**
— `Pick.Tool`, `Place.Tool`, `ToolChange.DockStation`. `DockStation`
drives a physical tool-exchange motion to a location the server never
authorised. The replacement test enumerates NodeId members by reflection
so the next one added cannot be missed.
- **A lock-order inversion that loses a stop.** `CanCancel` and the
mission condition evaluator ran under the host lock while the executor's
own thread re-entered it via `ReportBlendBegin`.
- **A non-terminal executor outcome killed the pump** from outside the
`try/catch` that exists because the executor is untrusted — `Ready`
stayed true and submissions kept being accepted while nothing moved.
- **`Pause` published `Suspended` while the robot kept moving.** Now
queue-only and honest about it; the specification gained the matching
rule ([opcua-drafts
`357a558`](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/pull/47)).
- **`RI-RealTimeChannel` and `RI-Safety` were false claims** — granted
on an empty folder with no methods, and on the mere presence of a
Mandatory node.
- **The Part 10 promotions never promoted.** Namespace-1 BrowseNames
declared second members beside the inherited ones; the conformance test
could not see it because its lookup stripped the prefix. Fixed upstream
and regenerated.
- **Renderer picking never worked.** The reflective probe bound a
renderer that is not a picking backend and throws off its owner thread.
It now binds only `IRenderPickingBackend`, falls back immediately and
loudly, and the docs say plainly that renderer picking is unavailable
with this package version.
- **The client lost command authority the instant it gained it** —
monitored items report the current value first, and the lease treated
every notification as a loss.

### CI stability fixes for master-side failures

The CI split in #4158 turned on legs that had never run, and two of the
failures they exposed were real bugs on `master` rather than anything
this branch introduced. Both are fixed here because they were blocking
every branch:

- **ECC key generation was broken on macOS.** `ExportExplicitParameters`
throws `PlatformNotSupportedException` there — Apple's
SecurityTransforms supports named curves only — and it was called for
exactly one value, the curve order `n`. The four curves OPC 10000-12
admits have published orders, so those are carried directly, with
`CurveOrderTableMatchesThePlatform` checking each against the platform's
own exported order wherever export works, so the constants cannot
silently drift. This accounts for the two ECC failures in
`test-macOS-latest-Server`.
- **The certificate-leak detector raced asynchronous disposal.** It
polled a fixed budget and reported whatever it saw, which cannot
distinguish a genuine leak (count steady) from a suite still draining
fire-and-forget disposals (count falling) — on a loaded agent that
produced `Certificate leak detected: 2 instance(s)` with every test
passing. It now waits for the count to **settle**, so a real leak is
reported sooner than before while a slow drain gets as long as it keeps
progressing. Shared by every suite that asserts no certificate leaks.

The remaining macOS failures on `master` (`Gds`, `Tools`,
`Redundancy.Samples`, `aot-macos`) have different root causes, are not
reproducible without a macOS host, and are **not** addressed here.

### Merged with `master` again

`master` through `416d619c4` (#4158, the CI matrix split and graduated
coverage bands) is merged in as `08ae4528`. One conflict, in
`docs/DeveloperGuide.md`, where both sides had deliberately rewritten
the coverage-gate section:

- `master`'s rewrite is kept in full — graduated `patch.bands`, Codecov
being informational-only, and where the numbers surface per CI system.
- This branch's paragraph about the `ignore` globs is kept too, re-sited
ahead of those subsections. I re-checked it against the merged
`coverage-thresholds.json` rather than assuming it still held: the list
is still `tests/**`, `samples/**`, `obj`, `bin`, `*.g.cs`, with
**`tools/**` absent** — so the warning that anything under `tools/` is
measured like product code, and that an assembly no test project
references contributes changed lines counted as *uncovered*, is still
accurate and worth keeping.
- `master`'s "reproduce a coverage failure locally" line supersedes this
branch's near-identical one, so only `master`'s survives.

Post-merge: `dotnet build UA.slnx -t:Rebuild` **0 errors**, 2
pre-existing `CA1861`; Robotics **467** net10.0 / **447** net48; Robot
Intent **20** on both.

### Getting CI green

The pipeline had never actually run on this branch until now (it was
waiting on the fork-PR approval gate), so the first run surfaced four
real problems, each fixed at source:

- **Seven build legs failed** because `IntentEnabledRobot` pins
`net10.0` for the OpenUSD payload but never opted into
`RestrictForLegacyTfm`. On the legacy legs the libraries build as
net472/net48, where `Opc.Ua.Types` exposes the `System.Threading.Lock`
polyfill publicly, and that collides with the sample's own net10.0 BCL
(`CS0433`). `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Connector.Viewer` was already using the
opt-out for the same reason.
- **A Linux-only test failure** turned out to be a real defect, not a
platform quirk: `SetPose` published the *commanded* interpolated pose
beside joint frames derived from the *solved* joints, so the two
disagreed by the inverse-kinematics residual — about 8 mm, constant
after any real motion. That is the lying-digital-twin defect one level
deeper than the per-step IK fix reached. `SetPose` now derives both from
the joint angles.
- **Three source-generator tests** asserted the old emitted shape. The
clause 6.2 Null-Variant fix was implemented in
`ObjectTypeProxyGenerator` so every generated proxy benefits, which
changed that shape; the tests are updated and strengthened to pin the
`IsNull` branch as well.
- **A CI-only timeout** in the simulated arm drain: the executor runs on
a manual clock so the tests do not depend on machine speed, but the
drain guarded itself with a wall-clock deadline, which put that
dependence back. CI runs with coverage instrumentation, which is enough
to take a per-step IK probe from ~0.6 s to over 5 s. The guard is now a
simulated step budget.

One failure was **not** from this PR and did not recur: a Roslyn
`AccessViolationException` compiling `Opc.Ua.ISA95` on one leg, while
the Debug leg of the same target passed on identical code and the
Release build succeeds locally.

## Related Issues

- Relates to #3827 — the request that prompted the robotics intent work.
- Builds on #4127.

The companion specification is drafted in the open at
[marcschier/opcua-drafts#47](https://github.com/marcschier/opcua-drafts/pull/47)
(`metaverse-specs/robot-intent/`), with the prior art and the reasoning
behind each decision in the research document beside it. **Nothing in it
is normative or endorsed by the OPC Foundation, and its NodeIds and
namespace URI are provisional** — which is the main reason this is a
draft.

## Checklist

- [x] I have signed the
[CLA](https://opcfoundation.org/license/cla/ContributorLicenseAgreementv1.0.pdf)
and read the
[CONTRIBUTING](https://github.com/OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
doc.
- [x] I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my
feature works and increased code coverage.
- [x] I have added all necessary documentation.
- [x] I have verified that my changes do not introduce (new) build or
analyzer warnings.
- [x] I ran **all** tests locally using the **UA.slnx** solution against
at least .net **framework** and .net **10**, and all passed.
- [ ] I fixed **all** failing and flaky tests in the CI pipelines and
**all** CodeQL warnings.
- [ ] I have addressed **all** PR feedback received.

On the test checkbox, precisely: the whole `UA.slnx` suite now runs on
net10.0 with **50 of 52 assemblies fully green**, and
`Opc.Ua.Robotics.Tests` passes on **all five** target frameworks
including net472, net8.0 and net9.0 which had never previously been
exercised. The two remaining failures are reproduced identically at the
merge-base and are detailed above, so I have ticked the box; if you
would rather it stayed unticked until those two are green, say so and I
will revert it.

## Points I would most like feedback on

1. **The namespace and NodeIds are provisional.** They come from a draft
specification, not from the OPC Foundation. If this lands before the
model is registered, the identifiers will move.
2. **The model lives in `Opc.Ua.Robotics`.** It is standalone on the
base UA namespace and takes no dependency on OPC 40010, so a separate
`Opc.Ua.RobotIntent` package would arguably be cleaner. Keeping it here
was a deliberate call — this is where the robot-facing API already is —
but it is the easiest thing to change now and the hardest later.
3. **Removing the convention API from #4127 is a breaking change** for
anyone who adopted it. It was explicitly marked non-normative, so I have
assumed that is acceptable — please say if a deprecation period is
wanted instead.
4. **Serial execution** is a deliberate simplification. Concurrent
`None`/`Soft` intents would be an optimisation, not a correction, but it
is worth agreeing that reading.
5. **`samples/Robotics/` reorganisation** moves `MinimalRobotServer`.
Happy to split that into its own commit if it makes review easier.

Marc Schier fb80bfdc82 [WotCon] Track WoT Connectivity/Binding 1.1 and add projections (Section 12) (#4182)
Follow-up to #4128, which merged the WoT Connectivity 1.1 work against
**draft2** of the companion specifications. Both drafts have moved
since, and this branch tracks them through to **draft3**, adds the
projection feature they introduced, and closes the gaps a bidirectional
re-audit found.

The specifications are the private
[`OPCF-Members/spec-drafts`](https://github.com/OPCF-Members/spec-drafts)
drafts of *OPC UA — WoT Connectivity 1.1* and *OPC UA — WoT Binding
1.1*. They are still drafts, which is why this is opened as a draft PR —
see [Status](#status) at the bottom.

## What changed in the specifications

Two revisions landed upstream while #4128 was in flight.

**draft2** replaced the `eventGroup` / `actionGroup` grouping constructs
with a single **projection / view** concept, added fifteen Section 6
vocabulary terms, and made two identifier rules normative. **draft3**
([spec PR #8](https://github.com/OPCF-Members/spec-drafts/pull/8))
un-deprecated the incorporated OPC 10100-1 v1.02 surface, restructured
the conformance clause into three profiles, and tightened two security
obligations.

The draft3 NodeSet is **structurally identical** to draft2 — I diffed
all 286 nodes node-by-node. Every change is metadata: 96
`ReleaseStatus="Deprecated"` attributes removed, `PublicationDate`
advanced, and `WOTC-ProjectionMaterialization` claimed by three Type
Nodes that previously implemented it in name only.

## Projections (WoT Binding Section 12)

The substantial addition. A projection document selects affordances from
other Thing Descriptions or Thing Models and resolves to a document of
its own; materialized, it becomes an OPC UA `View` that **creates no
affordance Node** and only `Organizes` what its sources already
materialized.

| Piece | Where |
|---|---|
| Document model and validation | `Opc.Ua.Types/Wot/WotProjection.cs`,
`WotProjectionModel.cs` |
| Four-stage resolution engine |
`Opc.Ua.Types/Wot/WotProjectionResolver.cs` |
| Materialization plan |
`Opc.Ua.WotCon.Server/Materialization/WotViewProjectionPlan.cs`,
`WotProjectionViewBuilder.cs` |
| Live address-space host | `WotProjectionViewNodeManager.cs`,
`LifecycleWotViewProjectionHost.cs`, `IWotViewProjectionHost.cs` |
| Node lookup seam | `IWotMaterializedNodeIndex.cs` |

Groups reached by `ua:Organizes` become organizational Objects rather
than nested Views, only the outermost materialization is a `View`, and a
member whose source is served by another server is omitted and reported
rather than recreated — the federation case the clause calls out.

### How this is validated

The specification publishes twenty worked examples, two of which are a
**golden pair**: a projection document and the resolved view it is
defined to produce. `WotSpecExampleTests` embeds all twenty and runs the
pair through the resolver, asserting against *the specification's own
expected output* rather than against my reading of the prose. That
single document exercises all three selection forms, the bulk naming
rule, the security closure naming and the provenance term.

This is the strongest evidence in the PR, and it is worth more than the
unit tests around it: it is the same check the upstream
`validate_local.py` performs.

## Other spec work

- **Section 6 vocabulary** — fifteen missing model and platform terms
with their validation rules (`WotNodeSetConverter.ModelVocabulary.cs`).
- **Portable identifiers** — the two rules release 1.1 made normative,
with `WotNodeSetConverterOptions.AllowNonPortableIdentifiers` as a
documented downgrade-to-warning switch for documents authored against
v1.00. Defaults to `false`.
- **xRegistry §6.9 identifier construction** (`XRegistryIdentifier.cs`)
— reverse-authority symbolic identifiers; all seven published worked
examples are test cases.

## Gaps found by re-auditing against draft3

I audited in both directions — every normative requirement to code, and
every `uav:` term in code back to a spec that defines it. Three
findings, all fixed:

1. **`Wot-Con 1.02` accepted anything well-formed.** draft3 makes format
validation part of the unit, because *WoT-Con Minimal* is one unit wide
and materialization projects a *valid* document. The 1.02 upload path
only deserialized into the `ThingDescription` POCO, which happily
accepts JSON that is not a WoT document at all — every member of that
type is optional, so `{}` deserialized and was materialized. It now
parses via `WotDocument.Parse` and requires the document to identify
itself by a non-empty `name` or `title`, returning `Bad_DecodingError`
and materializing nothing otherwise. The rule lives in
`ThingDescriptionFormatValidator` and is shared with
`CreateAssetForEndpoint`, whose auto-generated Thing Descriptions §11
also treats as untrusted input.
2. **Two `WoTFile` operations were ungated.** draft3 §11 names `Write`
and `CloseAndUpdate` alongside the five management methods; both reached
the materializer without an access check. `EnforceManagementAccess` is
now wired into `WotAssetFileManager`.
3. **Two invented `uav:` terms.** `uav:NodeSet2Preservation` was
declared and never used — removed. `uav:eventFields` is read by
`OpcUaBindingPlanner` and defined in *neither* spec, while a comment
claimed it came from OPC 10101. It still works for compatibility but is
now documented as a non-standard extension at both sites rather than
misattributed.

The SSRF prohibition is satisfied by construction: there is no HTTP
client anywhere in these assemblies, and all resolution goes through the
injected `IWotThingResolver`.

## Two ambiguities fixed in the specifications themselves

The audit turned up two places where a conforming implementer had to
invent an answer. Rather than pick silently, I took both upstream — they
are pushed to [spec-drafts PR
#8](https://github.com/OPCF-Members/spec-drafts/pull/8) (all checks
green) and are now normative in *Binding* §12.6 and *Connectivity*
§7.13:

- **`ViewVersion`** had one sentence saying only *that* it changes. It
now changes iff the resolved membership changes, is updated at commit
time alongside the `NodeVersion` stamping, and is a deterministic
function of the membership alone in a canonical order — so two servers
that resolved the same membership agree, which a per-server counter
would not across a redundant pair. Explicitly **not monotonic**: compare
for inequality only.
- **"Type-level view"** was used once in §12.2 and defined nowhere,
while every other statement of materialization was universal. §12.6 now
*defines* it rather than contradicting §12.2: the NodeClass is `View` in
both cases.

Both were already what this code did, so neither changed behaviour — but
the order-insensitivity the clause added was **not** covered by any
test, and `ViewVersionIsUnchangedWhenOnlyTheOrderOfTheMembershipChanges`
now holds it. It is mutation-verified: removing the ordinal sort turns
it red.

`docs/WotBindings.md` no longer lists these as points "the specification
leaves open".

## Validation

| Suite | Result |
|---|---|
| `Opc.Ua.Types.Tests` | 8525 ✅ (8518 on net48) |
| `Opc.Ua.WotCon.Tests` | 1057 ✅ (net10.0 and net48) |
| `Opc.Ua.WotCon.Bindings.Tests` | 559 ✅ |
| `Opc.Ua.XRegistry.Tests` | 196 ✅ |
| `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` | 4027 ✅ |
| `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` | 3771 ✅ |
| `Opc.Ua.WotCon.Samples.Tests` | 9 ✅ |

The full `UA.slnx` builds with **0 errors and 0 warnings attributable to
this PR** on all 6 TFMs (`TreatWarningsAsErrors` is on).
`Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` and the source-generation suites are listed
because this PR now also touches `MasterNodeManager` and the WoT-Con
NodeSet.

## Compatibility

No public API is removed or broken. Everything added is new surface
using `ArrayOf<T>` / `ByteString` per the repo conventions, wired for DI
with a direct-construction fallback, and the one behavioural tightening
(`Wot-Con 1.02` format validation) rejects input that was never valid to
begin with.

One pre-existing issue is **not** addressed here because it came in with
#4128 and is out of scope: `WotAssetFileManager.OnCloseAndUpdate` uses
`.GetAwaiter().GetResult()`, which the repo rules ban. Worth a
follow-up.

## Landed since this PR was opened

- **DI upgraded to 1.05.0.** `ConnectsTo` was declared a subtype of
`HierarchicalReferences`, contradicting OPC 10000-100 §5.5 Table 48.
That is an upstream error in every official DI NodeSet up to 1.04,
corrected by the OPC Foundation in 1.05.0, so the fixture is replaced
with the verbatim 1.05.0 file rather than hand-patched. A guard test
pins the corrected form. This also closed a second gap: six DI types the
WoT model was missing are 1.05 additions.
- **The sample Pump has the type definition OPC 40223 declares for it.**
`Pump1.Identification` carried DI's `FunctionalGroupType` instead of
`PumpIdentificationType`. Every test, the sample documents and the
README agreed with each other about it, which is why it survived.
- **`WotPumpAddressSpaceComparisonTests`** compares this server against
`PumpDeviceIntegrationServer`, which builds the same OPC 40223 Pump from
generated NodeSets and hand-written wiring. An independent oracle rather
than a restatement of the same assumptions - it is what found the defect
above.
- **Error containment in `MaterializeProjectionViewsAsync`.** An
exception mid-loop discarded the applied View handles before they were
published, leaving View Nodes in the address space that nothing could
remove.
- **`HasWoTProjection`** is now created; it was documented and plumbed
but never wired.
- **The default in-memory View host** no longer deletes the View it has
just applied.
- **An undeclared NodeSet alias now says so.** It previously surfaced as
`IdentifierMissing`, naming neither the value nor the fact that an alias
was expected.
- **`ViewVersion` follows the algorithm the specification now states.**
My earlier spec text was rejected on review, correctly: it named neither
the function nor the canonical order it demanded, ignored that OPC
10000-3 §5.4 requires a value greater than zero, and its "when, and only
when" is unsatisfiable for a 32-bit value. §12.6 now specifies the
algorithm outright and this implementation follows it exactly, pinned by
an independently computed test vector. Implementing it surfaced a
further defect in the clause - joining members on U+000A is not
injective, because a NodeId string identifier may itself contain U+000A
- which is fixed in the specification by length-prefixing each member.
- **An auto-generated Thing Description is treated as untrusted input.**
§11 requires it; `CreateAssetForEndpoint` validated the endpoint but
handed whatever the discovery provider returned straight to the
materializer. The `Wot-Con 1.02` format rule now gates both paths from
one place.
- **Document bytes moved out of the registry snapshot** into a
content-addressed store, so a commit no longer rewrites the whole corpus
to edit one document. Writes stage and are promoted during the commit,
which preserves both durability-first ordering and the fail-closed rule
that a blob directory without a manifest means operator recovery.
Restoring streaming digest verification along the way closed a real gap:
content integrity had degenerated to a length comparison.
- **External references now reach a NodeManager registered later.** A
reference to a Node that does not exist yet is dropped rather than
queued, and the dynamic-registration path had no second phase to apply
them in, so registering a NodeSet before the one it points into lost the
forward edge permanently. Review of that change then found a state leak
in its rollback path, fixed with a red-to-green regression test.
- **`WOTC-Legacy` is renamed `Wot-Con 1.02`** in the specification and
here. Editorial: the NodeSet diff is `<Category>` values only.

## Status

Open for review. Two things may still move:

1. **The specifications are unpublished drafts.** Anything here can
change if the working group decides differently. The `ViewVersion`
definition has since been settled - §12.6 specifies the algorithm and
this follows it - but the same could happen to any other clause tracked
here.
2. **`uav:eventFields`** is kept as a documented non-standard extension.
That is a judgement call the WG may want to reverse, either by adopting
the term or removing it.

Two known items are recorded rather than fixed:

- `Pump1` has no hierarchical parent, so it is reachable by NodeId but
not by browsing down from `Objects`. The cross-NodeSet ordering defect
this was originally attributed to is fixed above, and cross-manager
references are now symmetric in both registration orders. The Pump
itself is still blocked on a different cause found while verifying that
fix: with the reference added, `DeviceSet` exists but the Pump has
**zero** inverse references, so the edge is dropped at *import* - before
any external-reference machinery runs. That is a separate defect in the
materialization path, not the one that was fixed, and it is left
recorded rather than guessed at.
- `WotAssetFileManager.OnCloseAndUpdate` uses
`.GetAwaiter().GetResult()`, which the repo rules ban. Pre-existing from
#4128 and out of scope here.

Review of the projection resolver and the materialization host is the
most valuable thing to look at; the vocabulary and identifier commits
are mechanical by comparison.

Marc Schier ca89ac85a7 Add a Generators companion-spec sample and compose servers at a site level (#4180)
# Description

Adds a **Generators companion-specification sample** alongside the
existing pump sample, and a **`SiteCompositionServer`** that composes
several device servers into one OpenUSD scene at a supervisory level —
demonstrating that servers can be aggregated without mirroring their
address spaces.

Three things, in dependency order:

### 1. `GeneratorServer`

A self-contained server realising the draft Generators spec
(`http://opcfoundation.org/UA/Generators/`) end to end: N simulated
generating sets, DI + Machinery integration, a twelve-state operating
state machine, four protection alarms per set, six control methods, and
a per-set OpenUSD twin.

The organising idea is that **load fraction is the only independent
variable**. Everything else is a function of it:

```
V̇_f(x) = 3.67 + 100·x                fuel rate      [L/h]
η(x)   = P(x) / (V̇_f(x) · ρ · LHV)   efficiency
S = P / PF     I = S / (√3·V_LL)     f = N·p / 120
```

This is not stylistic. When each measurement is an independent
oscillator — as the pump sample's simulation once was — a server happily
publishes a duty point no real machine could occupy, and no test can
catch it because there is nothing for the values to be inconsistent
*with*. Deriving them from one variable means `P = √3·V·I·PF` and `η =
P/(V̇·ρ·LHV)` hold at every tick by construction. The published
`DATASHEET.md`, the engineering ranges, the trip points and the
simulation all read the same constants in `GeneratorDatasheet.cs`, so
the document and the server cannot describe different machines.

The machine is a fictitious **SimGen Systems GenX-500** (400 kW prime /
440 kW standby, 400/230 V, 50 Hz, four-pole). Figures are representative
of a real industrial genset class; no vendor is named anywhere in the
code or docs.

### 2. Cross-server composition in the connector

`RemoteSessionFactory` already existed in the client library but the
connector CLI never set it, so cross-server composition was unreachable.
`--federate` wires it up: the connector opens a session to each server
named by a component binding, discovers its representations and drives
its bindings into the same stage.

It is **opt-in** because the endpoint the connector dials comes from the
server being rendered rather than from the operator, which makes
honouring it a trust decision. Federation is best-effort per component —
a subordinate that is down is logged and skipped, and the rest of the
scene still renders — which is the only `src/` change in this PR.

### 3. `SiteCompositionServer`

Owns no devices. It publishes a site stage plus one cross-server
component binding per subordinate, carrying that server's
`ComponentServerUri` and `ComponentEndpointUrl`. Nothing is mirrored, so
there is no cache to invalidate and no second copy of the truth.

## Notes for reviewers

**Everything interesting in this PR was found by running the servers,
not by reading the code.** Six defects, none of which looked wrong in
review:

- `IsShutdown` and `SubsystemName` are *optional* on
`GeneratorProtectionAlarmType`, so the generated factory does not
materialise them. `CreateOrReplace` alone produces a child that exists,
appears in `GetChildren` and holds the right value — but carries **no
`ReferenceTypeId`**, so no browse can reach it. Every alarm was
publishing its trip without saying whether the trip stops the machine or
which subsystem to go to. `AddXxx(context)` first is what gives the
child its `HasProperty` reference.
- **The protections could never fire.** Every trip point sits outside
the band the datasheet curves produce — that is what a datasheet *means*
— so all four alarms, the shutdown class, `ResetFaults` and the whole
`Fault` branch of the state machine were unreachable while the README
documented them as observable. Overload was worse: the load clamp
ceiling was set to exactly the trip point, making a
strictly-greater-than comparison unsatisfiable. Faults are now
injectable, and the first set — the one the hero camera frames —
develops one on a slow rotation.
- **A shutdown trip removes the condition that caused it**, because oil
pressure and coolant temperature are only supervised while the engine
turns. Each alarm went active for one tick and cleared, leaving an
operator with a stopped machine and no indication of why. Shutdown-class
alarms now latch until the set leaves the shutdown state. Every unit
test that checked the *condition* passed throughout — the defect only
appears when the trip and the supervision interact over time.
- **`Synchronizing` and `Paralleled` were declared, drawn in the README
and never entered.** The first set now energises a dead bus and closes
onto it while every other set synchronises to a live one — both how a
real plant parallels, and what makes the two states observable.
- **The tick raced client method calls.** The simulation tick runs on a
thread-pool thread while method calls arrive on request threads, and
both transition sets and write the same nodes. A tick moving a set to
`Cooldown` and a concurrent `EmergencyStop` could interleave the paired
`CurrentState` / `CurrentState.Id` writes and leave a client with a
state *name* from one transition and a state *node* from the other — the
exact failure the paired write exists to prevent, reintroduced by the
threading model. Both paths now take one gate.
- Low oil pressure supervised from raw speed **tripped every set during
cranking**, because pressure has not built yet. Now gated on
`IsSpinning`, which is what a real start-up bypass does.

Smaller fixes: shutdown trips are applied after the whole evaluation
pass (stopping mid-loop made the remaining conditions read healthy,
collapsing simultaneous trips to whichever came first in the table);
`ResetFaults` reports its clears as events (a client learns of condition
state changes only through events, so a silent clear leaves an
alarm-list client showing it forever); the start counter moved into the
transition so commanded starts are counted; the federated connector
closes the remote session if the connector constructor throws between
taking ownership and registering it; and `prepare_machinery_nodeset.py`
now *asserts* the IA namespace is last before removing it rather than
only claiming so in its docstring — removing any earlier entry would
silently renumber every namespace after it and rebind their NodeIds.

**A model limitation is left visible rather than papered over.**
`GeneratorStateMachineType` declares an emergency stop only out of
`Running`, `Loaded` and `Paralleled`, so the sample refuses
`EmergencyStop` from `Starting` and `Warmup`. A real panel stops from
anywhere. That is the specification's shape, not this sample's choice,
so it is pinned by a test and named in the docs.

**`Model/` vendors a reduced Machinery nodeset**, derived mechanically
by whitelist. The full official nodeset does not survive the model
source generator (`MODELGEN003`) and drags in IA through a single
optional `Stacklight` member a generating set does not have. Deriving it
by script keeps the provenance checkable; the whitelist is the only
thing to edit when more types are needed. **Never hand-edit the
generated output.**

**The federated scene renders end to end.** Getting there surfaced three
more defects, all of which produced a plausible-looking scene with
nothing in it: the generator sample's plant aggregation was created
under an already-registered `DeviceSet` and so was invisible to every
client (it had *never* rendered geometry, standalone or federated); the
connector's asset fetch ran on the primary session only, so composition
referenced layers that were never downloaded; and both generator colour
bindings wrote `primvars:displayColor` to prims that did not declare it,
so the renderer rejected every update while the file still looked
correct. Cross-server components compose under the subordinate's own
root, so the site layer now *places* `/Plant` and `/Powerhouse` rather
than leaving them stacked on the origin.

**`OpenUsdRepresentation` is now mounted with `HasAddIn`, not
`HasComponent`** (review feedback). The nodeset says so explicitly —
*"Mounted with HasAddIn"* — but every server in the tree used plain
`HasComponent`. It survived because `HasAddIn` is a *subtype* of
`HasComponent`: the representation still browses, still aggregates and
still drives a twin, so every functional test passed before the fix and
after it, and only a conformance checker could tell. Seven mount sites
corrected. `PumpDeviceIntegrationServer` and `MinimalRobotServer` had
hand-rolled the mount instead of calling the shared
`CreateRepresentation` helper, which is exactly how they drifted from
it. Both sample E2E suites now assert the reference type across
**every** discovered representation — a narrower check would have missed
the plant-level representation that arrived later from master still
carrying `HasComponent`.

**Live colour is not achievable in the current OpenUSD viewer, and that
is now documented rather than worked around.** Proven with a standalone
probe: `primvars:displayColor` resolves as `color3f[]` from the
`UsdGeomGprim` schema whatever the layer declares, and the `OpenUsd
0.4.0-alpha` managed API has no writer for that type. Bound
`UsdPreviewSurface` materials are not shaded either, so geometry renders
grey unless it also carries an explicit `displayColor` primvar. The
**visibility** bindings carry no such caveat and are what the samples
rely on to show state. Filed upstream as
[openusd-dotnet#2](https://github.com/marcschier/openusd-dotnet/issues/2),
[#3](https://github.com/marcschier/openusd-dotnet/issues/3) and
[#4](https://github.com/marcschier/openusd-dotnet/issues/4), and linked
from `docs/OpenUsd.md` so a reader can check whether they have since
been fixed.

## Related Issues

No tracking issue — this is additive sample and documentation work with
a single small, self-contained change to `src/` (per-component error
isolation and session-ownership hardening in
`OpenUsdConnector.Composition.cs`). Happy to open one if maintainers
would prefer it tracked.

### Testing

The generator fixtures live in `tests/Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Tests/Generator` —
**82 tests**, no new project. `Opc.Ua.Di.Tests` would have been the
natural home next to the pump fixtures, but both device samples
source-generate their own reduced `Opc.Ua.Machinery` model and expose it
via `InternalsVisibleTo`, so referencing both from one assembly makes
every Machinery type ambiguous (CS0433); `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Tests`
references no other sample and already hosts `RobotAssetContractTests`.
The suite runs **870** on net10.0 and net48 (784 existing + 86) and
**788** on net472, where the sample does not exist and only the
framework-independent asset-contract tests run — forgetting exactly that
exclusion broke CI on the sibling pump PR.

The tests target the things in this sample that fail *quietly*:

- **Datasheet conformance** holds the model to its own claim — rated
speed is `120·f/p`, rated current follows from the rating, the fuel
curve reproduces the published table, and `η = P/(V̇·ρ·LHV)` reconciles
at every load. Efficiency is swept across the whole simulated range to
show it stays inside (0,100) and rises monotonically; a fit that goes
negative somewhere in its range is a coincidence that happens to look
right at the duty point, not a model. A further test reads
`DATASHEET.md` and checks the document quotes the figures the server
actually serves.
- **Drift between the two descriptions of the state machine** — the
physics' `IsLegalTransition` and the model's `GeneratorStateMap` — is
checked in *both* directions. A transition the physics permits but the
map lacks moves a machine without telling a client; one the map holds
but the physics refuses is dead weight that looks supported.
- **Reachability at run time**, not just in the declared table — the
test that catches states the model declares and nothing ever enters.
- **That every protection can actually fire**, which is the half of the
alarm contract that "a healthy set annunciates nothing" does not cover.

A **hosted end-to-end fixture** connects a real client and asserts what
the address space actually exposes — the aggregation at
`/Powerhouse/Generators`, its component binding, and every per-set twin.
That is the only kind of test that catches the registration defect
above: the node object had the right browse name, binding and asset
reference, so every test that inspected objects passed while no client
could see it.

**Every state-machine and protection fix was checked by mutation.**
Restoring the clamp ceiling, the direct `Running → Loaded` path, the old
start-counter placement, or removing the alarm opt-in each makes the
corresponding test fail, naming the specific defect. A test that has
never been seen to fail has not been shown to work.

Verified against a running plant: `Synchronizing`, `Paralleled` and
`Fault` all observed on a two-set server, with
`HighCoolantTemperatureAlarm` seen active on the fault subject. Method
behaviour verified separately — per-set distinct `CurrentState` nodes,
`EmergencyStop` → `EmergencyStopped` with `Start` then refused as
`BadInvalidState`, `ResetFaults` → `Off`, `SetOperatingMode(9999)`
refused with the mode unchanged, and the other sets untouched
throughout. Also verified as a three-server federated stage.

0 warnings on a clean Release rebuild of both samples, the client
library, the connector and the tests, across every TFM.

Marc Schier e73e71184d [WotCon] Add OPC UA WoT Connectivity 1.1 with the Types, source generation, Server and xRegistry work it builds on (#4128)
## Summary

Adds OPC UA WoT Connectivity 1.1 to the stack, together with the Types,
source generation, Server and xRegistry work it is built on. This branch
is the merge point for the fourteen-PR stack that replaced integration
PR #4093; every constituent PR was reviewed and approved separately and
is listed below.

414 files changed, +108,936 / -3,199. Roughly 46k added lines of product
code, 57k of tests, plus samples, tools and documentation.

## Types

- Complete `ExtensionObject` raw-body decoding for binary, XML and JSON
bodies by resolving the concrete type through the message context's
encodeable factory, and simplify the `Variant` structure helpers by
delegating to it (#4128).
- Add `IAtomicFileReplace` as an optional `IFileSystem` capability so
existing external implementations keep working, with atomic publish for
`LocalFileSystem` via `File.Replace`/`File.Move` and for
`VirtualFileSystem` by re-keying the in-memory entry (#4128).
- Add lossless conversion between WoT documents and NodeSet2
(`Opc.Ua.Wot.WotNodeSetConverter`). A byte-exact `uav:nodeSet` envelope
is preserved when requested, the structured `uav:nodes` projection is
used when the readable vocabulary is incomplete, and NodeSet2 is
otherwise synthesized from readable WoT terms. Unmapped JSON members
survive a round trip as pointer-addressed residue (#4131).

## Source generation

- Improve the NodeSet to ModelDesign conversion and the generated node
state (#4132).
- Generate OPC UA models directly from WoT Thing Description files
(#4134).

## Server

- Add live NodeManager shadow and immediate reload. A reload
materializes a new generation beside the active one and switches
atomically; the superseded generation is retired gracefully so existing
MonitoredItems keep being served until they drain, or immediately when
the caller asks for it. Includes the request admission and drain
machinery that lets an orderly shutdown wait for admitted requests
instead of tearing down underneath them (#4147).
- Make subscription transfer between sessions transactional, so a failed
transfer leaves neither session holding a partially moved subscription
(#4150).

## xRegistry

- Allow clients to use explicit registry roots rather than assuming a
well-known location (#4130).

## WoT Connectivity

- Add the WoT Connectivity 1.1 information model: a registry-first
revision layered on the abstract xRegistry base model, incorporating the
complete published OPC 10100-1 v1.02 surface as deprecated nodes in the
same namespace so existing 1.02 clients keep working (#4139).
- Add the protocol binding abstractions and planners that compile WoT
forms into executable plans (#4140).
- Add the HTTP, Modbus, OPC UA and MQTT binding executors (#4144).
- Add the registry and its stores, including document versioning,
validation, dependency resolution and refresh (#4146).
- Add the registry client (#4142).
- Materialize WoT Thing Descriptions into the server address space,
deriving types from Thing Models and instances from Thing Descriptions
(#4154).
- Restore the WoT asset registry bridge so the deprecated 1.02 asset
surface is backed by the registry (#4171).
- Add the WoT Connectivity samples and complete the documentation
(#4156), and restore the remaining coverage and docs (#4172).

## New projects

`src/Opc.Ua.WotCon.Bindings`, `src/Opc.Ua.WotCon.Bindings.Mqtt`,
`tests/Opc.Ua.WotCon.Bindings.Tests`,
`tests/Opc.Ua.WotCon.Samples.Tests`, and the `samples/WotCon`
AggregationServer, AggregationClient and FlatTagServer samples.

Supersedes #4093.

## Follow-up

The WoT Connectivity and WoT Binding drafts have moved to 1.1-draft2
since this work was authored. Aligning with that revision - the removed
group vocabulary, the new projection/View construct, the remaining model
vocabulary terms and the two new portable-identity validation rules - is
tracked separately and will follow in its own pull request.

## Validation

Built for every target framework with zero warnings and zero errors, and
validated at the tip of the stack with `Opc.Ua.WotCon.Tests` at 999
passed / 0 failed and `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` at 4024 passed / 0 failed.

Marc Schier 00664404c0 Ship the OPC Foundation license file from every package and fix the NU5033 pack failure (#4174)
# Description

The `preview-pack` stage of the Azure DevOps pipeline fails with nine `NU5033` errors, which fails the whole build:

```
NuGet.Build.Tasks.Pack.targets(222,5): error NU5033: Invalid metadata.
Cannot specify both a PackageLicenseExpression and a PackageLicenseFile.
[src\Opc.Ua.Robotics\Opc.Ua.Robotics.csproj]
```

`common.props` gives every package the shared `LICENSE.txt` as its `<PackageLicenseFile>`, but **19** packages also declared `<PackageLicenseExpression>MIT</PackageLicenseExpression>`. Nine of them hit `NU5033`; the other ten only avoided it by carrying an empty `<PackageLicenseFile></PackageLicenseFile>` workaround.

That declaration was wrong on two counts.

**It advertised the wrong license.** `LICENSE.txt` is the **OPC Foundation MIT License 1.00**, which carries the OPC Foundation copyright and preamble — it is a different text than the plain SPDX `MIT` license. The affected packages therefore published `<license type="expression">MIT</license>` plus a `licenses.nuget.org/MIT` URL on nuget.org, instead of the OPC Foundation text that every other package in the stack ships.

**It also broke the build,** because NuGet refuses to pack a project carrying both a license expression and a license file, failing `pack` solution-wide rather than just for the offending projects.

## Changes

The expression is dropped from all 19 packages so every one uses the shared OPC Foundation license file uniformly, like the rest of the stack:

* `src/Opc.Ua.OpenUsd`, `.Client`, `.Server`
* `src/Opc.Ua.OpenUsdScene`, `.Server`
* `src/Opc.Ua.Robotics`, `.Client`, `.Server`
* `src/Opc.Ua.Positioning`, `.Client`, `.Server`
* `src/Opc.Ua.Di`, `src/Opc.Ua.ISA95`, `src/Opc.Ua.WotCon`, `src/Opc.Ua.Gds.Common`
* `tools/Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Connector.Viewer`, `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core`
* `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Pack`, `tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Pack` — these two set the license not in their own `.csproj` but in the shared `tools/SourceGeneratorPack.targets`, so they were only caught once the new guard ran in CI.

The eight per-project empty `<PackageLicenseFile></PackageLicenseFile>` workarounds go away with it.

To stop the whole class of failure from recurring, `Directory.Build.targets` now *enforces* the rule rather than papering over it. Silently clearing the inherited license file would have fixed the build while still publishing the wrong license metadata, so instead a violation fails fast with an actionable error naming the project:

```
error OPCUA0001: Opc.Ua.Foo sets PackageLicenseExpression=MIT. Every package must
ship the OPC Foundation MIT License 1.00 via the shared LICENSE.txt that
common.props sets as PackageLicenseFile, which the SPDX expression neither
matches nor is allowed to coexist with (NU5033). Remove the
PackageLicenseExpression property.
```

`common.props` cannot catch this itself: it is imported from `Directory.Build.props`, i.e. **before** the project body, so it never observes a project-level license expression. `Directory.Build.targets` is imported **after** the project body and is the earliest place that can. The `common.props` comment that previously hinted the expression was an option now points at this rule.

### Verification

* Every packable project evaluates to `PackageLicenseFile=LICENSE.txt` with an empty `PackageLicenseExpression`; file-licensed packages such as `Opc.Ua.Client` are unchanged.
* `dotnet pack -c Release` succeeds for `Opc.Ua.Robotics` (previously failing) and `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` (previously relying on the removed workaround).
* Replicated the CI build commands locally — `dotnet build` of `UA.slnx` (net48/Debug), `tools/SourceGeneration.slnx` (net472/Release) and `tools/MigrationAnalyzer.slnx` (net48/Debug) all succeed with 0 errors.
* Inspected the produced `.nupkg`: now `<license type="file">LICENSE.txt</license>` with the license text at the package root, matching the rest of the stack (it was `<license type="expression">MIT</license>` before).
* Confirmed the guard fires on a simulated violation (`-p:PackageLicenseExpression=MIT`) and is inert otherwise.

## Related Issues

Marc Schier 81d726b7ad Coordinate the robot cell, and make the twin show what it is actually doing (#4162)
# Description

`MinimalRobotServer` drove its two mobile manipulators through each
other. The platforms *did* clear — R1 and R2 trace figure-eights 1.2 m
apart at closest approach, exactly as `README.md` claimed — but each
**arm reaches 1.611 m** (link offsets `0.260 + 0.680 + 0.670 + 0.158`
from `robot.usda`), so the arms swept straight through one another while
the chassis politely missed. Clearance has to be argued about the
deployed arm, not the footprint.

Three related gaps sat alongside it: motion was open-loop (two
independent sine paths with no awareness of each other), only R1 had a
gripper, and nothing was ever actually picked — `PartA`/`PartB` were
static children of a single table and the arm replayed a canned
eight-pose loop unrelated to where either the robot or the table was.

This replaces all of that with a coordinated transfer cycle.

## Keeping them apart

The cell is divided into reservable zones, and a robot reserves the zone
*immediately ahead* before entering it, releasing the one behind once
clear — block signalling rather than a global schedule:

| Zone | Extent | Occupancy |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `EndZoneA` / `EndZoneB` | \|x\| > 1.3 m | one robot — a deployed arm
needs the whole end |
| `CorridorEastbound` | \|x\| ≤ 1.3 m, northern lane (y = 0.35) | one
robot |
| `CorridorWestbound` | \|x\| ≤ 1.3 m, southern lane (y = −1.15) | one
robot |
| `DockA` / `DockB` | around each charging dock (y = −2.0) | one robot |

Three rules follow:

- **Opposite-direction traffic passes**, being in lanes 1.5 m apart;
same-direction traffic queues rather than overtaking.
- **An arm may only leave its transport envelope inside an exclusively
reserved end zone.** This is the rule that actually fixes the reported
defect.
- **A robot with no work parks on its dock**, releasing the end zone so
the other robot can deliver into the station it serves.

That last rule is not cosmetic. Without it the cell deadlocks
permanently on the first handover: an idle robot standing beside its own
table blocks the very delivery it is waiting for. A state trace showed
R1 blocked at `x = 0.98` forever while R2 sat idle holding `EndZoneB`.
The docks are in a southern layby rather than beside the stations,
because a robot parked next to a station is close enough to foul one
turning into it.

## Where the part actually is

A carried part's pose is computed by forward kinematics
(`RobotKinematics`) from **the same six axis values the server
publishes**, not from the choreography that produced them — if the arm
and the part were computed independently they would visibly drift apart.
`RobotArmSolver` solves shoulder and elbow so the tool points down onto
a slot, and is checked against that same forward kinematics, landing the
tool on every slot of both tables to within 1e-6 m.

## Also simulated

Trapezoidal accel/cruise/decel travel with the heading following the
path; speed-and-separation slowdown near the other robot; an emergency
stop that now halts motion rather than only blinking the beacon; battery
drain with a charging detour; seeded grip-slip faults with floor
recovery; and KPIs (parts moved, cycle count, last/average cycle time,
utilisation, fault count). Both robots now carry a gripper.

## Two hidden couplings this surfaced

- `m_r1NodeId` was keyed on *"has a tool"*, so giving R2 a gripper
silently moved the dynamic-tool demo and the speed-override command
target onto R2. Now keyed on R1 explicitly.
- `RobotPositionsDriveLiveOpenUsdSceneAsync` sampled a fixed 1.2 s
window and assumed the robot was always moving. Under a duty cycle a
robot legitimately stands still while gripping, dwelling or charging, so
it now polls until movement is observed — the assertion's intent is that
live positions reach the scene, not that the robot never stops.

## Invariants are asserted, not assumed

`CellChoreographyTests` runs ten minutes of simulated time at 50 ms and
checks on **every step** that:

- oriented footprints never overlap (an oriented box, not a bounding
circle — the circle is so pessimistic for a 1.15 × 0.60 m platform that
it demands clearances no real cell would need);
- the two tool centre points never meet;
- a zone is never doubly occupied;
- arms only deploy inside an end zone;
- parts are conserved — never duplicated, lost or carried twice;
- a carried part sits exactly on the tool centre point.

Plus the round trip completing, KPIs accumulating, the emergency stop
halting every robot, dropped parts being recovered, and the battery
draining and recharging.

The README documents the zoning, traffic rules and cycle, **corrects the
misleading clearance claim**, and lists ten further realism extensions
that were deliberately not built (ISO 10218 / TS 15066
speed-and-separation monitoring, scanner cones, tool changer, inspection
station, conveyor infeed, gate interlock, torque telemetry, maintenance
counters, time-sampled pose history, traffic priority).

## Making the cycle visible

Running the sample end to end against the OpenUSD connector showed the
robots driving the cycle and the arms reaching the slots while **nothing
was picked up or moved**. The choreographer tracked part poses and
gripper opening purely in memory: the address space only ever exposed
the platform poses and the twelve axis angles, so a connector had
nothing to subscribe to for the parts and the blocks stayed wherever the
asset authored them.

A `CellTwin` folder now holds a `ThreeDCartesianCoordinates` position
and a `ThreeDOrientation` heading per part, plus a jaw position per
robot, bound to `/Cell/Parts/PartNN` and to the gripper jaws. The
variables are registered before the motion device system is built - a
binding can only carry a `SourceNodeId` that already exists - and sit
outside the robotics subtree, because a workpiece is not a device and
the robotics builder validates every node below its root as one it
allocated itself.

**The poses are published as structured vectors, not as a matrix.** A
viewer composes a prim's matrix from the vector translate and rotate
ops; the `matrix4d` profile is explicitly left unresolved by the
reference connector, which drops a binding it cannot convert *in
silence*. That is the shape the first attempt took, and it failed
without a word in any log.

The jaws needed the asset restructured. A carrier cube and a finger mesh
were siblings under the gripper body, so driving the carrier would have
slid it out from under the finger it is bolted to. Each jaw is now one
`Xform` owning both, declaring the single matrix op every live-bound
prim declares, with the finger points rebased onto the jaw origin.
Closed puts the finger faces on the 35 mm half-width of the block, so
the gripper grips it rather than passing through it.

`RobotAssetContractTests` now holds **every** live-bound prim to the
single-matrix contract, not just the two robot mount points.

## No part starves

Collecting the lowest free slot meant a part that never landed in slot 0
was never collected at all: with two parts seeded on `WorkTableA` the
second sat untouched for the life of the process while the robots
shuttled the other one past it - which reads in the twin as the robots
ignoring a block sitting in front of them. Parts are now stamped with
the order in which they came to rest and the one that has waited longest
is collected, which is what a real cell does with a buffer anyway.

Verified end to end: all three parts circulate between both tables, the
heading follows the carrying robot and resets on placement, and the jaws
stroke between open (0.060) and closed (0.047) as parts are gripped and
released.

The OpenUSD packages move to 0.3.0-alpha.

## The part was not in the gripper

Running it end to end showed a workpiece floating clear of the jaws that
were supposed to be holding it.

The platform pose and the workpiece pose leave the server as **separate
bindings published by different loops**: positioning at 5 Hz
(`UpdateIntervalMilliseconds = 200`), the simulation tick at 20 Hz. A
carried part rides the tool centre point, so it was being drawn against
a platform up to four ticks stale. Measured against the live scene with
the arm stowed — where the part-to-platform distance is fixed by
construction — the part sat anywhere between **0.65 m and 0.90 m** from
its platform instead of at a single distance. A quarter of a metre of
drift, three part widths, in front of a 96 mm jaw opening.

The platform now publishes at the tick rate, and a carried part is
derived from the pose that was **actually written to the address
space**, recorded at the `SetFrameValue` call site rather than where the
sample is produced. Each value was individually correct the whole time;
only their relationship was wrong, which is why nothing caught it.

`RobotOpenUsdE2eTests` now rebuilds the tool centre point from the
values authored into the scene and asserts a carried part sits on it. It
reproduced the defect at 0.49 m before the fix. The tolerance is the
sampling straddle of reading two independently delivered bindings — one
publish period is 43 mm at cruise — leaving an order of magnitude
between it and the defect.

Two assertions in the positioning test wanted the robots a metre apart
**in X**. They pass each other in opposite corridor lanes, where X is
all but identical and the separation is entirely in Y; and before the
first sample arrives both platforms sit on the zero frame and coincide
exactly. They now measure separation in the plane, once both have been
seen to move — this was failing intermittently on net48 already.

## The opening view

Framing the bounds of an enclosed scene automatically puts the eye
*inside* it: the viewport opened on a close-up of whichever robot
happened to be nearest, looking through the fence.

The cell now authors `/Cell/OverviewCamera` — the whole floor, both work
tables, the docks and the controller cabinet, from 12 m out at 28
degrees of elevation — and the connector opens on the first camera the
served root layer declares. It already had the plumbing to honour a
camera path; it was simply never given one. `--camera` still overrides
the choice outright, and `RobotAssetContractTests` asserts the
establishing shot is ordered before `/Cell/TopDownCamera`.

## The mounted gripper was never reported

`DynamicToolIsComposedAsync` was failing on both TFMs, in isolation, and
a longer timeout did not help. It predates this branch — I confirmed it
at `58fd5e8ca` with a clean worktree. It turned out not to be a flaky
test at all.

**Part 5 §9.32.2** lets only a node carrying a `NodeVersion` property
trigger a `ModelChangeEvent`, and `AsyncCustomNodeManager` drops entries
for nodes that lack one. Neither the mounted tool nor the robot it hangs
off had a `NodeVersion`, so **every addition was filtered out**. Removal
kept reporting, because a deleted node is no longer in the manager's
index and so takes the *"not mine, pass it through"* branch of the same
filter.

That asymmetry is what made it look like flakiness. A connector starting
while the tool was mounted composed it and could still deactivate it
later; one starting in the six-second gap was never told the tool
appeared and never composed it **at all, for the life of the process**.
Which happened depended only on the phase the fixture reached the test
in — near-constant, hence a consistent failure rather than an
intermittent one.

Measured directly before the fix: model-change events arrived only on
detach, exactly 18 s apart, and every resolve returned zero components:

```
14:00:12.738 SERVER mounted        <- no event
14:00:24.752 SERVER detached
14:00:24.801 model-change event    <- only this
```

After enabling model-change tracking on the robot, the prim tracks the
cycle — `A` = composed active (12 s mounted), `i` = inactive (6 s
detached):

```
....AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAiiiiiiiiiiiiAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAiiiiiiiiiiii
```

**The test now asserts a transition**, not a momentary state: the prim
seen both active and inactive across more than one full cycle. Unlike
the old check this cannot pass on a connector that only ever hears about
one direction — which is exactly what the previous pair of tests could
not distinguish, since the sibling
`DynamicToolIsDeactivatedWhenDetachedAsync` was satisfied by the
*initial* compose and never exercised reconciliation at all.

Two robustness gaps in the connector fell out of this: a rejected
model-change monitored item was reported as success, leaving every
`Dynamic` component frozen at whatever it resolved at start-up; and the
initial compose ran *before* the subscription existed, so a change in
between was seen by neither. The first now fails loudly, the second
re-resolves once after subscribing.

`Opc.Ua.Di.Tests` is now **402/403 on net48** (was 3 failures) and on
net10.0, across three consecutive runs of the dynamic-tool tests on
each.

Marc Schier 724ae71f8a Make NodeId assignment during a node copy explicit (#4157)
Fixes #4137.

## The problem

`NodeState.Initialize(ISystemContext, NodeState)` copies a node. Every
child it materialises through `CreateChild` gets a per-instance NodeId
from `ISystemContext.NodeIdFactory`, and is then initialised from its
source on the very next statement - which overwrites that NodeId. The
assignment is therefore *always* discarded: it only burns identifiers,
and permanently leaks them for factories that track outstanding
allocations. Booting the Robotics node manager left ten reservations
behind that every later allocation skipped.

#4123 fixed the symptom by hiding the factory for the duration of the
copy, wrapping the context in one that reports `NodeIdFactory` as
`null`. The review objection was fair: a context that lies about one
property is hard to reason about, and it only works because that
property is allowed to be null.

## What this does

States the intent instead of faking the environment. NodeId assignment
is now an argument of the two members that materialise children:

```csharp
public virtual BaseInstanceState? CreateChild(
    ISystemContext context,
    QualifiedName browseName,
    bool assignInstanceNodeIds = true);

protected virtual BaseInstanceState? FindChild(
    ISystemContext context,
    QualifiedName browseName,
    bool createOrReplace,
    BaseInstanceState? replacement,
    bool assignInstanceNodeIds = true);
```

A copy passes `assignInstanceNodeIds: false` and every node type -
generated or hand-written - sees the real context. There is no
capability property, no wrapper, and no second overload to keep in sync.

`MethodState`, `BaseDataVariableState` and the source generator template
each collapse to a single `FindChild` override that threads the argument
into its `CreateOrReplace<Child>` helpers.

## Breaking change

The four argument `FindChild` and the two argument `CreateChild`
virtuals are gone.

- **Call sites are unaffected.** The new parameter defaults to `true`,
so `CreateChild(context, browseName)` and `FindChild(context,
browseName, true, null)` keep compiling and keep the 1.5.378 behaviour.
- **Overrides must add the parameter.** A node manager that overrides
either member gets `CS0115` until it does. The compiler points at every
site; `docs/migrate/2.0.x/node-states.md` shows the before/after.

This is deliberate, per review: the stack ships all base types, and
types generated from a model are regenerated for 2.0 anyway.

## Also fixed

`MethodState.FindChild` returned `OutputArguments` when asked for
`InputArguments` with `createOrReplace: false` - a pre-existing bug in
the method being restructured. Covered by
`FindChildReturnsTheRequestedArgumentsProperty`.

## Validation

- Full `dotnet build UA.slnx`: **0 errors, 0 warnings**.
- `Opc.Ua.Types.Tests`, `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests`,
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests`, `Opc.Ua.Di.Tests`,
`Opc.Ua.Robotics.Tests` - all passing.
- Each new regression test was checked to fail without its corresponding
fix.

Marc Schier fb160a8f39 OpenUSD: the OPC UA to OpenUSD binding, scene materialization and connector (#4126)
**Stack 4/5** — base #4125. Part of the #4096 split; see #4096 for the
overall picture.

> Review after #4123, #4124 and #4125.

## What this is

The generic OPC UA to OpenUSD binding, scene materialization, and the
connector that drives a live stage from a running server.

## Contents

**Binding (Part 1)** — `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd` and `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Server`. A
server describes how its Variables drive USD prims, and serves the USD
layers it refers to as Part 5 files with a content digest.

**Scene materialization (Part 2)** — `Opc.Ua.OpenUsdScene` and
`Opc.Ua.OpenUsdScene.Server`, including the USDA writer.
- **Escaping fix**: string values, composition-arc references, variant
set names and selections, `doc` and prim names were all emitted
unescaped, so a value carrying a quote or a newline could author its own
layer syntax. Every emit site now goes through the escapers. The tests
assert the right property — not that the payload is absent (it
legitimately survives inside the escaped literal) but that no payload
becomes its own line of layer syntax.

**Client** — `Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Client` streams live values into an
`IUsdSink`. `CompositeUsdSink` fans out to several sinks; the file sink
interpolates between server samples so motion is continuous rather than
stepped at the publishing interval.

**Connector** — `tools/Opc.Ua.OpenUsd.Connector` composes a stage from a
live server. The optional in-process viewport lives in a separate
assembly probed at run time, so the connector still runs — and says why
— when it is absent.
- **Fix**: the asset cache and PKI root moved off the shared temp
directory to `LocalApplicationData`.

**Sample** — `PumpDeviceIntegrationServer` gains an OpenUSD
representation of the pump.

## Notes for the reviewer

- The viewport assembly is net10.0-only. It is what exercises the
`Directory.Build.targets` change from 1/5: without it, the `net8.0` leg
of the per-TFM CI build fails with `CS0433` because the
`System.Threading.Lock` polyfill collides with the real type.
- `UsdAssetDelivery` hashes through `SHA256.Create` rather than the
static `HashData`, which does not exist on the net472/net48 targets this
test project also builds for.

## Validation

`dotnet build UA.slnx` — 0 errors, 0 warnings.

Marc Schier 0357380335 Source generator: typed NodeSet method signatures and referenced model accessors (#4124)
**Stack 2/5** — base #4123. Part of the #4096 split; see #4096 for the
overall picture.

> Review after #4123. The diff shown against `master` will include #4123
until that merges.

## What this is

Source generator only; no runtime library changes.

## Contents

- **Typed NodeSet method signatures.** A method imported from a NodeSet
now gets a typed signature. Methods that share a declared signature are
grouped onto one generated `MethodType`, named after its owner when the
plain name would collide, so two unrelated `Execute` methods no longer
share a class.
- **An override that keeps the signature it inherits keeps the
declaration it overrides.** Pointing `MethodDeclarationNode` at the
override itself made `MethodDeclarationId` self-referential. OPC 10000-4
lets a caller invoke a method with the NodeId of its declaration in the
ObjectType *or any supertype*, and `MethodState.MethodDeclarationId` is
what the server matches on, so `Call` stopped resolving and returned
`Bad_MethodInvalid` for every alarm subtype. An override that genuinely
changes its signature still becomes its own declaration.
- **`StateNumbers` / `TransitionNumbers` were emitted empty for every
NodeSet-sourced model**, because such children arrive as
`VariableDesign` rather than `PropertyDesign` and were filtered out. Any
companion model built from a NodeSet was writing `StateNumber = 0` on
the wire — a Part 16 defect well beyond the models in this stack. The
ModelDesign path is unchanged.
- **Referenced models can contribute fluent accessors**, carried by a
model dependency payload so a downstream model can extend an upstream
one.

## Notes for the reviewer

- `tests/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` is left at its `master` content
here. Its new vendor-subtype test uses the Robotics NodeSet as its
fixture, so it can only land with the Robotics change at the top of the
stack (5/5).
- `PumpInstanceNodeIdRegressionTests` gains six
`InputArguments`/`OutputArguments` entries for argument-less standard
condition methods. Typed method signatures materialise those properties
from the `ConditionType` declaration even where the method takes none.
That is a real deviation, pinned rather than hidden so it stays visible;
it is worth a follow-up.

## Validation

`dotnet build UA.slnx` — 0 errors.

| Suite | Result |
| --- | --- |
| Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests | 3739 / 0 |
| Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests | 81 / 0 |
| Opc.Ua.Di.Tests | 304 / 0 |
| Opc.Ua.History.Tests | 506 / 0 |
| Opc.Ua.Gds.Tests | 1095 / 0 |

History and GDS are listed because they are what the method-declaration
fix above is load-bearing for: without it they fail with 10 and 370
errors respectively.

Marc Schier 76d33cb139 Remove SourceGenerator.Foundations, ship analyzers under Roslyn-versioned folders for VS2022 and VS2026, and validate the packages (#4120)
# Description

The two OPC UA source generators were built on
`SourceGenerator.Foundations` (SGF), whose only job was getting the
generator's dependency closure loaded inside the compiler. It does so
with a **process-wide, first-generator-wins `AppDomain.AssemblyResolve`
hook backed by a non-concurrent `Dictionary` mutated from `AssemblyLoad`
callbacks**. Concurrent compilations in a shared `VBCSCompiler` race it,
which is the root cause of the intermittent clean-build failure:

```
CSC : error CS8784: Generator 'StackSourceGeneratorHoist' failed to initialize. ...
Exception was of type 'FileNotFoundException' with message 'Could not load file or assembly
'SourceGenerator.Foundations.Contracts, Version=2.0.14.0, ...'
```

The repository already solves that problem deterministically — #4041
made the NuGet packages ship the full closure under
`analyzers/dotnet/.../cs`, and `Directory.Build.targets` registers the
same closure as `Analyzer` items for in-repo `ProjectReference`
consumers. SGF was therefore pure liability and is removed.

## What changed

**1. SourceGenerator.Foundations removed.** `ModelSourceGenerator` and
`StackSourceGenerator` are plain `[Generator(LanguageNames.CSharp)]
IIncrementalGenerator` implementations again. SGF's implicit crash
handling is replaced by an explicit `SourceGenerator.Guard` that reports
`MODELGEN003` / `STACKGEN003` and rethrows cancellation. Its logger sink
was already dead code and is dropped.
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.dll` shrank from **18 MB** (embedded
closure) to **29 KB**.

**2. Analyzers now ship under Roslyn-versioned folders.**
`analyzers/dotnet/roslyn4.14/cs` and `analyzers/dotnet/roslyn5.0/cs`
instead of `analyzers/dotnet/cs`, driven by `roslyn.props` at the
repository root, with new `*.Pack` projects owning the package identity.
The versioned folder matters: a host older than the band **skips** the
analyzer instead of loading it and failing inside generator
initialization.

**3. Dependencies flow automatically.** Both delivery paths discover the
payload by globbing the generator's output directory, so adding a
package to a generator's dependency tree requires **no** `.csproj`,
`.targets`, `.nuspec` or validation-script edit. Verified by temporarily
adding a `PackageReference` and watching it appear in the payload with
no other file touched.

## Two Roslyn bands: VS2022 and VS2026

Analyzers ship twice, once per band. The .NET SDK loads the highest band
its compiler supports and **silently skips** anything above it, so a
single-band package leaves every consumer below that band with no
diagnostics and no generated code.

| Band | Built against | Loaded by |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `roslyn4.14` | `Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp 4.14.0` | Visual Studio
2022 17.14+ / .NET 9 SDK |
| `roslyn5.0` | `Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp 5.0.0` | Visual Studio
2026 18.0+ / .NET 10 SDK |

Getting this wrong is invisible, which is most of why it took three
attempts. The rule:

> An analyzer must reference the **lowest**
`System.Collections.Immutable` / `System.Reflection.Metadata` across all
hosts it claims to support, and must never ship them. .NET binds a
reference *upward* but never downward.

Every failure mode is a compiler **warning**:

| Diagnostic | Cause |
| --- | --- |
| `CS9057` | Built against a newer Roslyn than the host, so it is
skipped entirely |
| `CS8784` | Loaded, then `MissingMethodException` - a shipped S.C.I
bound a second `ImmutableArray<T>` |
| `CS8032` | Analyzer instance could not be created |

This PR first shipped a `roslyn4.8` band that **never loaded** -
confirmed against a real Roslyn 4.8 compiler:

```
warning CS8784: Generator 'ModelSourceGenerator' failed to initialize ...
MissingMethodException: Method not found:
'IncrementalValueProvider`1<ImmutableArray`1<!!0>>
 IncrementalValueProviderExtensions.Collect(IncrementalValuesProvider`1<!!0>)'
```

That band was removed, and **this is not a regression**: master had the
same defect, pinned to Roslyn 4.14 while referencing
`System.Collections.Immutable 10.0.0.0`, so no 4.x host ever worked
there either.

The band that landed instead is `4.14`, and it is nearly free:
`Microsoft.CodeAnalysis 4.14` depends on the **same S.C.I 9.0.0 as
5.0.0** and its `csc` runs on `net9.0`. Both bands therefore share
`$(RoslynRuntimeVersion)`, so `Opc.Ua.Types` and
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` are compiled **once** and serve both;
only the five Roslyn-referencing assemblies get a second build, each
from a 12-line project that glob-links the primary sources and overrides
`RoslynApiVersion`. Going lower still - 4.8 wants S.C.I 7.x - would mean
rebuilding that whole closure, `Opc.Ua.Types` included, and remains out
of scope. (`System.Collections.Immutable 7.0.0` also does not resolve in
this repository: `NU1603`, 8.0.0 substituted.)

**Nothing else in the repository exercises the down-level payload**, and
since every failure is a warning, a broken band would ship silently -
exactly as the 4.8 one did. So `validate-source-generator-packages.ps1`
now restores a real `Microsoft.Net.Compilers.Toolset 4.14.0`, runs its
`csc.dll` over the packed `roslyn4.14` payload, and asserts **both**
that none of `CS9057`/`CS8784`/`CS8032`/`CS8034` is emitted **and** that
`/reportanalyzer` lists the generator as having executed - silence alone
would also pass if the generator were never handed to the compiler. The
migration analyzer, whose payload comes from a hand-written nuspec
rather than `SourceGeneratorPack.targets`, gets the same check plus a
band/assembly manifest assertion.

To stop the trap recurring, `Microsoft.CodeAnalysis*`,
`System.Collections.Immutable` and `System.Reflection.Metadata` are
excluded from both the package payload and the in-repo analyzer closure,
and asserted against in the validation script. `roslyn.props` and
`docs/DeveloperGuide.md` document what adding a band requires.
## The shipped package set is unchanged

Evaluating `PackageId`/`IsPackable` across every project in
`preview-pack.slnx` gives the **same 47 package ids** on `master` and on
this branch, and a full Release build plus `dotnet pack --no-build`
produces exactly those 47. Only the owning project changed:

| Package | master | this PR |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `…Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration` | `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.csproj` |
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Pack.csproj` |
| `…Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack` |
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.csproj` |
`Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Pack.csproj` |

`.azurepipelines/expected-packages.txt` pins the expected set and the
validation script fails when the packed output drifts.

## Two new package checks

**`build/<PackageId>.props` naming.** NuGet only auto-imports that exact
name, and the file declares every `CompilerVisibleProperty` /
`CompilerVisibleItemMetadata` the model generator relies on. It was
previously packed as
`build/OPCFoundation.Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.props`, which does **not**
match the package id — so **no NuGet consumer ever imported it**, and
every `ModelSourceGenerator*` property and `AdditionalFiles` metadata
was silently invisible. In-repo projects were unaffected because they
import it by relative path.

**An end-to-end consumer that actually drives the generator.** The
pre-existing clean-consumer check only proved the analyzer *loads*.
`Test-SourceGeneratingConsumer` builds a standalone project that feeds a
real NodeSet2 in as an `AdditionalFile`, pins a
`ModelSourceGeneratorPrefix` that cannot be derived from the model, and
references the emitted types from hand-written code. It deliberately
does **not** import the props by path, so the package's auto-import is
what is under test. Both checks were verified to fail against a package
rebuilt with the misnamed props.

## CI: parallelism re-enabled

`buildandtest.yml` pinned three `dotnet build` invocations to
`/p:UseSharedCompilation=false` and `-maxcpucount:1`. `dotnet build`
defaults to all logical processors, so `-maxcpucount:1` actively
disabled parallelism. Both flags were introduced silently in unrelated
PRs (`f358078b1`, `208c601b0`) and suppress exactly the conditions the
SGF race needed — now structurally gone. Compilation is ~72 % of what
that workflow executes (233 of 323 job-minutes in run `29916768976`), so
the queue-independent `Build` step durations are the baseline:

| Measurement | Baseline |
| --- | --- |
| `Build` step, 26 `test-*` jobs | mean 5.53 min, sum 143.9 min |
| `build-linux-all-tfm` | 56.3 min |
| `build-windows-all-tfm` | 32.5 min |

`codeql-analysis.yml` keeps the flag — the CodeQL tracer requires it.

## Incidental fixes

- `Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.CSharp` declares an exact `[version]` range on
`Microsoft.CodeAnalysis.Common`, so with
`CentralPackageTransitivePinningEnabled` the central pins must move in
lockstep or restore fails with `NU1109`. They now derive from
`$(RoslynApiVersionVS2026)`.
- `MigrationGeneratorTests` created its generator driver without parse
options — silently fine under Roslyn 4.14, `Inconsistent language
versions` under 5.0.
- The migration analyzer props injected `<Analyzer>` items by hand from
`analyzers/dotnet/cs`; NuGet registers analyzers itself and selects the
matching folder, so the injection was obsolete and would now force the
wrong assembly to load.
- Exception diagnostics reported `ex.StackTrace` (null for an exception
that never left its throw site, and carrying neither type nor inner
chain) — now `ex.ToString()` at all three call sites.
- The pack guard tested the flattened assembly list, so it only fired
when *no* variant produced output; it now checks each declared variant
contributed assemblies.
- `GeneratePackageOnBuild` is disabled for the generators; packing
happens in CI or on an explicit `dotnet pack`.

## Note for reviewers

**Building this repository requires a Roslyn 5.x host** (the .NET 10 SDK
or Visual Studio 2026). That is already the documented prerequisite and
every CI leg installs `10.0.x` last, but it is now a hard requirement.

## Related Issues

_No tracking issue: this is a follow-up to the CS8784 clean-build
failure reported against #4041, which fixed the packaged delivery path
but left the in-repo project-reference path relying on the SGF
resolver._

Marc Schier 8a10139b8c Fix OPC UA address-space compliance in the device integration stack (#4117)
# Description

A live OPC UA compliance audit of `samples/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer`
against the **OPC 40223 Pumps** and **OPC 10000-100 (DI)** companion
specifications found **13 address-space violations** plus a
serialization bug in the MCP tool. Every fix lands at its **root cause
in the shared stack** rather than as a workaround in the sample, so all
servers benefit.

The sample now exposes **N fully simulated pumps** (`--pumps N`) and
advertises the DI conformance facets it actually satisfies.

> This branch has been merged with `master` including **#4116** ("Add
simulation to PumpDeviceIntegrationServer and Event modelling"), which
independently reworked the same pump simulation and the same fluent
alarm builders. See [Relationship to #4116](#relationship-to-4116) below
for how the two were reconciled.

## Findings and fixes

| # | Finding | Root cause | Fix |
|---|---------|-----------|-----|
| 1 | `OverTempAlarm` created by the fluent API did not exist in the
address space | `AttachAlarm` attached the alarm with `AddChild` but
never indexed it into the node manager | Register the node; the same gap
existed in `AddObject`, `CreateInstance` and the state-machine creators
|
| 2 | Alarms were unsubscribable — `EventNotifier = 0` everywhere, no
`HasNotifier` from `Server` | No event-source wiring at all | Set
`HasCondition`, initialise
`SourceNode`/`SourceName`/`ConditionName`/`InputNode`, promote
`EventNotifier` up the ancestor chain, publish `HasNotifier` from the
`Server` object |
| 3 | Every instance NodeId was minted in the **DI standard namespace**
(`ns=4;s=5001_Pump #1`) | `DiNodeManager.New` inherited the parent's
namespace index | New `DiNodeManager.InstanceNamespaceIndex`; instances
move to the server's application namespace |
| 4 | `Server/Namespaces` described only 2 of 6 namespaces | The
NodeSet2 importer drops nodes parented to namespace 0, so companion-spec
metadata objects never reached the address space — and no route covered
the server's own namespace | New `NamespaceMetadataPublisher` walks the
`NamespaceArray` and fills version/publication date from
`ModelDependencyAttribute` |
| 5 | Vendor BrowseNames (`Diagnostics`, `LastError`, …) sat in the DI
namespace | Builders defaulted to the parent's namespace | Default to
the server namespace; **spec-defined BrowseNames are unchanged** |
| 6 | `AccessLevel="5"` from the Pumps NodeSet was reported as `1` | The
ModelDesign `AccessLevel` enum is not `[Flags]` and cannot represent
`CurrentRead \| HistoryRead` | Carry the verbatim NodeSet2 bitmask and
emit named `AccessLevels` constants |
| 7 | `Historizing = true` while `HistoryRead` returned
`BadHistoryOperationUnsupported` | Nothing reconciled the declared
history surface with the wired historians | Startup clears the
advertisement (including masking the attribute read callbacks) when no
provider resolves; the sample wires a real historian |
| 8 | Mandatory `ProductInstanceUri` unset | Sample omission | Populated
on every pump |
| 9 | Mandatory `TrueState`/`FalseState` empty on every supervision
boolean | Absent in the official NodeSet; a server must still populate
them | Populated on every pump |
| 10 | Machinery `Machines` folder empty (OPC 40001-1 §9.2 says
**shall**) | `TryAddToMachinesFolder` used `AddChild`, which
*re-parents* the device away from `DeviceSet` | Add the `Organizes`
reference instead |
| 11 | BrowseName contained a space and `#` | Sample naming | `Pump_1`
with the readable label in `DisplayName` |
| 12 | `Maintenance` group materialised but empty | Sample omission |
Populated |
| 13 | Uninitialised values reported `Good` | No initial-value status |
`BadWaitingForInitialData` until the first simulation tick |
| — | `ServerProfileArray` advertised only `StandardUA2017` |
`DiNodeManager` did not implement the existing `IConformanceContributor`
| Contribute DI 1.05 server facets computed at runtime from what is
actually wired, merged with `StandardUA2017` |
| — | MCP tool serialised boolean `false` and numeric `0` as JSON `null`
| `Variant.Null` is `default`, so `Variant.Equals` adopts the non-null
type and compares against the default value | Dispatch on `BuiltInType`
and use typed `TryGetValue` accessors instead of the prohibited
`AsBoxedObject` |

## Relationship to #4116

#4116 landed on `master` while this branch was in flight and targeted
overlapping ground. The merge is a **union of both intents**, not a
fast-forward:

- **`AlarmBuilderExtensions`** — kept both sides. #4116 contributes the
parent-must-be-an-Object guard, `SetEnableState`, and the
`HasEventSource` references; this branch contributes the `HasCondition`
reference, condition source initialisation, **registration of the alarm
with the node manager so it is browsable**, notifier promotion up the
whole ancestor chain, and root-notifier registration.
- **`SupervisionBuilderExtensions`** — took #4116's `SetAlarmActive`. It
is more spec-correct than this branch's version: it honours
`EnabledState`, resets Acked/Confirmed on activation, and computes
`Retain` per OPC 10000-9 so an unacknowledged Condition stays retained
after going inactive. This branch's null guard was kept so a malformed
alarm cannot dereference a missing `EnabledState`.
- **`PumpNodeManager.Configure.cs`** — took #4116's **push-based**
simulation (`RegisterPumpSimulation`, `CreatePumpSimulation`,
`IValueUpdater<T>`, `Initialize`/`Advance`/`Publish`, deterministic
per-pump phase offsets) as the structure, then folded in this branch's
compliance work: configurable pump count, Maintenance group,
`TrueState`/`FalseState`, historian wiring, per-pump mandatory
Identification values, and `BadWaitingForInitialData` until the first
tick.
- **README** — union, keeping #4116's address-space validation workflow
section.

Two test adjustments were needed, both because the merge legitimately
changed behaviour the tests pinned:

- `PumpHostedReferenceTests` now resolves pump NodeIds from the browse
result instead of hard-coding the DI namespace, and waits for the first
published value. `PumpCreatedAfterStartupJoinsTheLiveSimulationAsync`
was **added** to restore #4116's coverage that a pump created after
startup through `ConfigureDevicesFor` joins the live simulation.
- `FluentAlarmRegistrationIntegrationTests` no longer asserts that
`Retain` clears when an alarm goes inactive — that pinned this branch's
weaker semantics, and #4116's Part 9 behaviour is correct.

## Breaking change

Runtime-created DI device instance NodeIds move from the companion-spec
namespace to the server's application namespace, e.g.
`ns=<DI>;s=5001_Pump #1` becomes `ns=<application>;s=5001_Pump #1`. This
invalidates NodeIds cached by clients from earlier 2.0 previews. It is
**not** a model change — standard DI/Machinery/Pumps type NodeIds and
spec-defined BrowseNames are untouched.

Device integration hosting is new in 2.0, so there is nothing to migrate
from 1.5.378 and this is deliberately *not* in `docs/MigrationGuide.md`.
Anyone tracking 2.0 previews should rediscover devices by browsing
`DeviceSet` rather than persisting NodeIds, and resolve namespace
indexes from `NamespaceArray` per connection.

## Verification

Compliance is pinned by regression tests that assert **through the
server's service surface** (`BrowseAsync` / `ReadAsync` /
`HistoryReadAsync`), not by inspecting `NodeState` objects in memory.
That distinction mattered: three defects survived in-memory assertions
and were only caught through the read path — most subtly, `Historizing`
was cleared while `AccessLevel` still advertised `HistoryRead`, because
attribute read callbacks re-applied the NodeSet bits.

Post-merge on net10.0:

| Suite | Result |
|---|---|
| `Opc.Ua.Di.Tests` | 326 passed |
| `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` | 3846 passed, 5 skipped |
| `Opc.Ua.Tools.Tests` | 288 passed |
| `Opc.Ua.History.Tests` | 506 passed, 27 skipped |
| `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` | 3722 passed, 8 skipped |

The full solution was also built and tested on **net48** before the
merge.

Review feedback from `copilot-pull-request-reviewer` has been addressed
in commit `badad31dc`: the shared `ServerObjectState` lock was removed
(the forward `HasNotifier` edge is published through the owning node
manager instead), MCP array serialization now preserves element types,
and the pump option guards report the specific rejected option. The only
failure is
`ConfigureApplicationBuildsSharedClientAndServerConfigurationAsync`, a
pre-existing certificate-store issue that **passes when run in
isolation** and is unrelated to this change.

## Documentation

Updated `docs/DeviceIntegration.md`, `docs/MigrationGuide.md`,
`docs/HistoricalAccess.md`, `docs/DeveloperGuide.md`,
`docs/McpServer.md`, `docs/README.md`,
`samples/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer/README.md` and
`tools/Opc.Ua.Mcp/README.md`, and consolidated the four node-manager
documents into a single [`docs/NodeManagers.md`](docs/NodeManagers.md) —
overview, built-in managers (including `MasterNodeManager`), core vs
custom, registration, server address-space metadata, and source
generation — with a TOC and all inbound links repointed.

## Related Issues

No tracking issue exists for this work yet — it originated from an
ad-hoc compliance audit of the pump sample. Given the size of the change
and the runtime-breaking NodeId move, please open (or link) a tracking
issue so the design is recorded as an ADR before merging.

Marc Schier cfd15f08e1 Assign instance NodeIds in generated CreateOrReplace<Child> helpers (#4104)
# Description

The model source generator emits two families of instance helpers with
inconsistent NodeId behaviour:

* `ISystemContext.CreateInstanceOf<Type>(parent, browseName)` rebases
the whole materialised subtree onto per-instance NodeIds.
* `<Owner>.CreateOrReplace<Child>(context, replacement)` — the plumbing
behind `NodeState.CreateChild` / `ReplaceChild` — did not. The child it
produced was either bare (null NodeId, no browse name) or kept the
type-level NodeId of the replacement.

Any node manager mixing the two had to hand-roll a recursive re-stamp
before registration, or sibling instances collided on NodeIds — a
failure that only surfaces at registration time.
`samples/PumpDeviceIntegrationServer` did exactly this.

## What changed

**Generator** (`tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core`)

* `CreateOrReplace<Child>` gains `bool assignInstanceNodeIds = true`.
When enabled and the context supplies an `ISystemContext.NodeIdFactory`,
a child whose NodeId is null or still equal to its declaration NodeId —
and its descendants — are rebased through
`NodeInstanceExtensions.AssignInstanceNodeId` /
`AssignInstanceChildNodeIds`, with the owner as reference root. **A
NodeId the caller already assigned is never overwritten.**
* The helper also stamps the new child's `SymbolicName` / `BrowseName` /
`DisplayName`. Without an identity, a path-based `INodeIdFactory`
derives `{parent}_` for *every* child of a parent, so the assignment
would have introduced collisions rather than removed them. `BrowseName`
stamping is guarded on `context.NamespaceUris != null` — event-reporting
paths pass a context without a namespace table.
* All generated `Create*` factory call sites pass
`assignInstanceNodeIds: false`: they build declaration subtrees whose
NodeIds must stay at their type-level values, and the enclosing
`CreateInstanceOf<Type>` factory rebases the finished subtree in a
single pass.
* The `CreateInstanceOf<Type>` rebase guard drops the `parent != null`
requirement — supplying a `browseName` is what marks a dynamically
materialised instance. Calling it without one (as the generated
`NodeStateActivator`s do, and when replacing a well-known singleton)
still keeps the declaration NodeIds.
* `replacement` is now emitted as `BaseInstanceState?` on
`CreateOrReplace<Child>` and on the generated `FindChild` override,
matching the documented contract and the base `NodeState.FindChild`
signature.

**Hand-written twins** —
`MethodState.CreateOrReplace{Input,Output}Arguments` and
`BaseDataVariableState.CreateOrReplaceEnumStrings` gain the same
parameter and behaviour, sharing a new internal
`NodeInstanceExtensions.AssignNewChildInstanceNodeIds`. This is also
required so the generated `public new` overrides keep hiding a matching
base signature (otherwise `CS0109` with `TreatWarningsAsErrors`).

**Sample** — `PumpDeviceIntegrationServer` now passes the real
`DeviceSet` parent to the factory and drops `AssignChildNodeIds` plus
the manual root stamp.

**Docs** — new *"Materialising instances at runtime — NodeId
assignment"* section in `SourceGeneratedNodeManagers.md` and a refreshed
`DeviceIntegration.md`.

## Design note: why not the guard proposed in the issue

Gating on *"the owner already has an instance NodeId"* cannot be
implemented as `owner.NodeId != <ownerTypeNodeId>`. The generated child
factories call `<Owner>.CreateOrReplace<Child>` on **declaration**
instances — `CreatePumpType_Operational` runs on a
`FunctionalGroupState` whose NodeId is `ObjectIds.PumpType_Operational`,
not `ObjectTypeIds.FunctionalGroupType` — so the comparison would be
true while the *type template* is being materialised (`forInstance:
false`) and would rewrite the address space's declaration NodeIds. The
explicit opt-out separates the two callers unambiguously.

## Compatibility

Adding an optional parameter is source-compatible. Behaviour changes for
callers of `NodeState.CreateChild` / `ReplaceChild` when the context
carries a `NodeIdFactory`: the new child now carries a browse name and a
per-instance NodeId instead of nothing.

### Tests added

**Generator emission** (`NodeManagerGeneratorTests`) —
`CreateOrReplaceChildAssignsInstanceNodeIdsByDefault`,
`TypeFactoriesOptOutOfCreateOrReplaceNodeIdAssignment`,
`CreateInstanceOfFactoriesRebaseWithoutAnExplicitParent`.

**Helper behaviour** (`NodeInstanceExtensionsTests`) —
`CreateOrReplaceArgumentsAssignsInstanceNodeIds`,
`CreateOrReplaceArgumentsKeepsCallerAssignedNodeId`,
`CreateOrReplaceArgumentsHonoursTheAssignmentOptOut`,
`CreateOrReplaceEnumStringsAssignsInstanceNodeIds`.

**Pump DI server regression** (`PumpInstanceNodeIdRegressionTests`,
added on review feedback):

| Test | Asserts |
| --- | --- |
| `ConfiguredPumpExposesTheFullModelSurface` | The exact set of **77
model identifiers** a configured pump materialises. |
| `EveryPumpInstanceExposesTheSameGeneratedModelSurface` | A second pump
exposes the identical generated surface, minus what the fluent
`Configure` pass adds. |
| `MaterialisedPumpNodeIdsComeFromTheNodeIdFactory` | Every NodeId is
`{parentIdentifier}_{symbolicName}` in the parent's namespace — minted
by `PumpNodeManager.New`. |
| `MaterialisedPumpNodeIdsAreUniqueAcrossInstances` | No NodeId is null
or shared between two instances of the type. |
| `GeneratedFactoryAssignsInstanceNodeIdsBeforeRegistration` | The
factory output already carries per-instance NodeIds before
`AddPredefinedNodeAsync` applies its defensive rebase. |
| `AlarmSubtreeKeepsStandardDeclarationNodeIds` | Pins the alarm
subtree's standard-namespace ids — a pre-existing gap outside the
generated helpers. |

The 77-identifier baseline was captured by running the same subtree walk
against the pre-change commit and diffing it against the post-change
run: **identical** — same node set, same NodeIds.

### Local test runs

| Suite | net10.0 | net48 | net472 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` | 3722 passed | 3721 passed | — |
| `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests` | 81 passed | 81 passed | — |
| `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Tests` | 90 passed | — | — |
| `Opc.Ua.Types.Tests` | 8083 passed | 8076 passed | — |
| `Opc.Ua.Di.Tests` | 303 passed | 303 passed | 277 passed |
| `Opc.Ua.Core.Tests` | 4134 passed | — | — |
| `Opc.Ua.Gds.Tests` | 1095 passed | — | — |
| `Opc.Ua.History.Tests` | 506 passed | — | — |
| `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` | 3626 passed, 1 failed | 3574 passed, 1 failed
| — |

The single `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` failure —
`ServerFluentApiHostingTests.ConfigureApplicationBuildsSharedClientAndServerConfigurationAsync`
— is pre-existing and unrelated; it reproduces on a stashed clean
`master` tree.

> [!NOTE]
> The source-generation test harness compiles generated model code
against a hand-written `Opc.Ua` API stub
(`tests/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests/CompilerUtils.cs`, shared by
three test projects). Its 73 `CreateOrReplace<Child>` declarations were
updated to the new signature — without that, every generated call site
passing `assignInstanceNodeIds: false` failed to bind.
`NodesetMethodArgumentTests` pinned the exact emitted call and was
updated to the new one for the same reason as the
`NodeStateGeneratorTests` expectations.

> [!NOTE]
> `master` has been merged into this branch. The only conflict was in
`NodeStateGeneratorTests.cs`, where master rewrapped the expected
call-site strings while this branch appended `assignInstanceNodeIds:
false` to them — kept master's wrapping and re-applied the argument.
Master's two new templates (`Create_MethodArguments`,
`Assign_MethodArgumentValues`) call
`CreateOrReplace{Input,Output}Arguments` while building a declaration
subtree, so they now pass `assignInstanceNodeIds: false` to preserve
their stated intent of leaving the property node's identity untouched.

> [!TIP]
> Changing a source generator leaves dependent projects' cached
generated output stale. If a local build reports `CS1739: ... does not
have a parameter named 'assignInstanceNodeIds'` or `CS0109` on a
generated `CreateOrReplace*`, run `dotnet build <project> -t:Rebuild`.
Clean CI builds are unaffected.

Marc Schier 5b9bcedc62 Add OPC UA ISA-95 Common Model and Job Control support (#4089)
# Description

Adds first-class support for the OPC UA ISA-95 companion specifications:

- OPC-10030 Common Model.
- OPC-10031-4 Job Control V1.
- OPC-10031-4 Job Control V2.

The change introduces `Opc.Ua.ISA95`, `Opc.Ua.ISA95.Client`, and
`Opc.Ua.ISA95.Server`, together with a NativeAOT-compatible minimal
server sample and comprehensive tests.

## Highlights

- Compiles the three canonical NodeSets and identifier mapping CSV files
through the source generator.
- Adds NodeSet identifier mapping validation, typed method
arguments/results, companion event records, and generated method
argument nodes.
- Provides typed Common Model builders with normative relationships and
an injectable `GeoSpatialLocationType` provider.
- Implements lossless V1/V2 Job Control providers over a shared
version-neutral store, including state paths, status events, comments,
response queries, catalog changes, and cohesive DI registration.
- Adds subtype-aware typed clients, standalone encodeable registration,
`IIsa95ClientFactory`, and V2 status-event streaming.
- Adds the `MinimalIsa95Server` sample, package documentation, and an
ISA-95 guide with conformance and HA guidance.
- Tracks typed RSL/GPOS integration as follow-up issue #4095.

## Validation

- `Opc.Ua.ISA95.Tests`: 137/137 passed on `net10.0` and `net48`.
- Source-generator suites: 81/81 model, 90/90 stack, 3718 passed / 8
skipped core.
- `EventRecordFieldReaders` feedback tests: 6/6 on `net10.0` and
`net48`.
- `EventRecordFieldReaders` changed-method patch coverage: 100% line
coverage (36/36) and 100% branch coverage (22/22).
- `Opc.Ua.ISA95`, `.Client`, and `.Server` build across all configured
target frameworks without new diagnostics.
- Cobertura line coverage: 88.08% model, 90.04% client, 91.19% server.
- NativeAOT sample publishes and passes a live typed V2
Store/status-event validation.
- The ISA-95 NativeAOT smoke test passes in the source-generated native
test executable.
- OPC UA KB NodeSet validation reports zero errors for Common, V1, and
V2.

The broader NativeAOT executable still reports unrelated existing GDS
and complex-type test failures; the ISA-95-specific native test passes.

## Node state generator fixes

Generating method arguments inline for imported nodesets regressed every
model that already emits `InputArguments` / `OutputArguments` child node
factories:

- The inline block ran before the child factories.
`MethodState.CreateOrReplaceInputArguments` keeps the property that was
assigned first, so the child carrying the well-known NodeId was dropped
and a NodeId-less placeholder remained in the address space. This broke
browsing (reference descriptions without a target) and made method
arguments unreachable at their well-known NodeIds.
- The `MethodDeclarationId` fallback keyed on an autogenerated display
name redirected every declared method of the standard address space to
its own NodeId, which made method calls fail.

The inline block is now emitted after the child factories and reduced to
a value assignment when a child factory exists. The value is only
re-emitted when an argument references a namespace other than OPC UA,
because the value of an imported property is the verbatim XML of the
source nodeset whose namespace indices do not survive the import. The
`MethodDeclarationId` fallback is restricted to declarations without a
resolvable NodeId. The generated OPC UA address space is byte-identical
to `master` again.

Marc Schier 38c7356bc7 Add generic xRegistry libraries (abstract registry base model) (#4097)
# Description

xRegistry is the *abstract registry base model*: a registry-agnostic,
content-addressed
resource registry. It knows nothing about what a resource contains — a
concrete registry supplies its
own companion namespace and a fingerprinting strategy and reuses
everything else. The PubSub Schema
Registry in #4007 is the first specialization (its resources are schema
documents),
and #4093 (WoT Binding) carries a byte-identical copy of the same base
NodeSet, so a
shared canonical home is worth having.

## Packages

| Package | Depends on | Contains |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `OPCFoundation.NetStandard.Opc.Ua.XRegistry` | `Opc.Ua.Core` |
Abstract base companion model (compiled by the model source generator),
`XRegistryWellKnown`, `IResourceContentIdProvider` |
| `OPCFoundation.NetStandard.Opc.Ua.XRegistry.Client` | +
`Opc.Ua.Client` | `XRegistryClient` (abstract) /
`GenericXRegistryClient` (sealed), built on the generated ObjectType
proxies |
| `OPCFoundation.NetStandard.Opc.Ua.XRegistry.Server` | +
`Opc.Ua.Server` | Fast-path / registration / federation node managers,
`XRegistryServerOptions`, `IXRegistryResourceStore` |

`Opc.Ua.XRegistry` deliberately depends on neither SDK, so a codec or a
shared contracts assembly can
reference the identity abstraction without pulling in the client or the
server.

## The model is compiled, not loaded

The companion model is compiled into the assemblies by the OPC UA model
source generator.
`Opc.Ua.XRegistry.NodeSet2.xml` is an `AdditionalFiles` generator input
only — there is no
`EmbeddedResource`, no runtime NodeSet parsing and no hand-written
NodeId tables for anything the
model declares. All three node managers load it the same way:

```csharp
protected override NodeStateCollection LoadPredefinedNodes(ISystemContext context)
{
    return new NodeStateCollection().AddOpcUaXRegistry(context);
}
```

`XRegistryWellKnown` is reduced to the namespace URI plus the
identifiers of the *instances* a
registry materializes at runtime, which live above the model's own
63000-63999 range so they can
never collide with it.

## What it does

- **Content-derived identity** — `IResourceContentIdProvider` maps a
document + format to a
fingerprint and names the (canonicalization, hash) algorithm. Identity
is derived from the bytes,
not assigned by the server, so it is stable across registries — which is
what makes de-duplication
  and federation work.
- **Opaque-NodeId fast path** — a registered resource is reachable at an
Opaque `NodeId` whose
Identifier is the raw content-id bytes, so a consumer that received the
id on the wire resolves the
document in a single `Read`: no Browse, no fingerprint recomputation.
The client reads it through
the `ReadBytesAsync` session extension, so a document larger than
`MaxByteStringLength` is fetched
with range-based reads rather than failing. Optionally pre-publishes a
seed resource so a fresh
  server can resolve one resource before any registration.
- **The model's own lifecycle** — the registry root is a `RegistryType`
instance serving
`CreateGroup` / `GetOrCreateGroup`; each group serves `CreateResource` /
`GetOrCreateResource`; and
because `ResourceType : FileType`, the document *is* the file — content
is streamed through the
inherited `Open` / `Read` / `Write` / `Close`. `Close` fingerprints the
accumulated bytes and
publishes the Opaque fast-path node at runtime. Identical bytes reuse
the existing node, whose
lifetime is reference counted so it survives until the last resource
resolving to those bytes is
gone and is retired when a resource is re-written with different
content.
- **Optimistic concurrency** — `Delete(ExpectedEpoch)` on both resources
and groups, and the same
epoch check on label mutations, so a caller working from a stale read is
rejected rather than
  clobbering a concurrent change.
- **Labels** — `RegistryType`, `GroupType` and `ResourceType` each
expose an `AttributesType` Object
with `AddAttribute` / `RemoveAttribute`; labels are published as
addressable `String` Properties.
- **Federation** — a resource hosted by another registry is published as
a real `ResourceType`
instance whose `ExternalReference` (`ExpandedNodeId` + `ServerIndex`
into the local `ServerArray`)
and `ResourceUrl` carry the link and whose `Xid` carries the content-id.
Because it is an ordinary
`ResourceType`, a generic client drives a federated resource through
exactly the same proxy as a
  local one.

## Extensibility

A domain registry subtypes the base model — the PubSub Schema Registry
declares
`SchemaFileType : ResourceType` — and the generator mirrors that
hierarchy across assemblies, so the
proxy chain follows automatically (`SchemaFileTypeClient :
ResourceTypeClient : FileTypeClient`).

```text
abstract XRegistryClient
   ├── sealed GenericXRegistryClient   // any registry namespace
   ├── SchemaRegistryClient  (domain)
   └── WotRegistryClient     (domain)
```

* A **domain client** derives from `XRegistryClient` and inherits the
whole lifecycle. Helpers
written as extension methods over a base proxy (such as
`WriteDocumentAsync` on
`ResourceTypeClient`) are callable on the domain proxy with no
inheritance in the client layer.
* A **generic client** still drives a domain registry, because a domain
instance *is* an instance of
the base type. This is covered by a test that defines a domain subclass
over the base.

## State

Document bytes live behind an injectable `IXRegistryResourceStore`.
Because a resource is a
`ResourceType`, which *is* a `FileType`, the store mirrors the file
access model: reads and writes are
**offset and length based**, so a document never has to be materialized
as a whole and a ranged read
touches only the bytes it needs.

The document is transferred with the inherited `FileType` Methods, whose
mode bits are honoured: a
write that does not set `EraseExisting` starts from the stored bytes and
replaces only the range it
writes rather than truncating the rest. A handle is valid only on the
resource and the session that
opened it, and a session's handles are released when it closes.

Two implementations ship: `InMemoryResourceStore` (the default,
in-process) and
`FileSystemResourceStore`, built on the `IFileSystem` abstraction so
documents outlive the
process and a shared volume can back a cluster.
`XRegistryResourceStoreContractTests` is a reusable
fixture that validates any implementation against the contract.

## Transport security

Registry **writes always require a `SignAndEncrypt` secure channel** — a
document and its
content-derived identity are integrity-critical, so every mutation is
rejected with
`BadSecurityModeInsufficient` on a channel that is only signed or
unprotected. This is not
configurable. Reads are allowed on any secure channel by default;
`RequireEncryptionForReads` extends
the requirement to them when the documents themselves are confidential.
An in-process call carries no
channel and is always allowed.

## Hardening

The lifecycle Methods are remotely callable, so every unbounded
dimension is bounded via
`XRegistryServerOptions`; exceeding a bound fails the call rather than
the server:

| Option | Default | Enforced on | Status code |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `MaxConcurrentUploads` | 64 | `CreateResource`, `Open` |
`BadTooManyOperations` |
| `MaxResourceBytes` | 16 MiB | `Write` | `BadRequestTooLarge` |
| `MaxRegisteredResources` | 4096 | `CreateResource` |
`BadTooManyOperations` |

## A source generator bug fixed along the way

Building on the compiled model surfaced a defect in shared generator
infrastructure.
`NodeSetToModelDesign.CreateDecoder` decoded values with an empty
`EncodeableFactory`, so a NodeSet2's
method `InputArguments` / `OutputArguments` — encoded as a list of
`Argument` ExtensionObjects — never
decoded, while `HasArguments` was still set. **Every** NodeSet2-sourced
model in the stack was
silently generating argument-less `MethodState`s and ObjectType proxies.
ModelDesign-sourced models
(the core stack) were unaffected, which is why this went unnoticed.
Fixed in `b87726af` with a
regression test that fails without it.

Two defects in the xRegistry NodeSet itself were fixed at the same time:
`BrowseName="1:InputArguments"`
→ ns-0 `InputArguments` (published NodeSets never namespace-qualify
these), and the `CreateResource` /
`GetOrCreateResource` **output** `VersionId` renamed to
`AssignedVersionId`, which collided with the
input of the same name and produced a duplicate C# parameter.

## Other fixes applied while extracting

- `XRegistryRegistrationNodeManager` uses `System.Threading.Lock`
instead of an `object`-typed sync
  root, per the repository locking rules.
- Dropped the `InternalsVisibleTo` entries granting internals to
`Opc.Ua.PubSub.Server.Tests`. That
  project only consumes public `XRegistryWellKnown` API.
- The `UA.slnx` edit in #4007 accidentally **replaced** the
`tests/Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Kubernetes.Tests` entry instead of adding a
line, silently dropping that
project from the solution. The entry is preserved here and the change is
purely additive.

## Tests

`tests/Opc.Ua.XRegistry.Tests` (168) covers the group and resource
lifecycles, the `FileType`
transfer, delete and epoch conflicts, labels, federation, both resource
stores, the fast path,
transport security and the extensibility contract — positive and
negative paths. Passing on `net10.0`
and `net48`. Patch line coverage is **98.5%**.

Also adds `tests/Directory.Build.props` / `.targets`: the .NET 10 SDK
prunes
`Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Abstractions` out of the test output, and
coverlet's Mono.Cecil
resolver only searches the output directory, so it silently fails to
instrument every module that
references `ILogger` and reports 0% coverage for them. These force the
package back into the restore
graph and copy its implementation next to the test binary.

Copilot 16dd14f420 Improve MCP server coverage and agent usability (#4080)
## Summary

- Expand deterministic MCP coverage across host startup, sessions,
configuration, NodeSet export, PKI, packet diagnostics, and PubSub.
- Fix Streamable HTTP startup by supplying the OPC UA client application
identity.
- Add client-visible required-argument errors and normalize generated
tool schemas with explicit `required` arrays.
- Introduce bounded `core`, `services`, `administration`, `pubsub`, and
`diagnostics` tool profiles while retaining `full` as the current-major
default.
- Split configuration updates into focused transport, client, and
security tools while retaining `SetConfiguration` in the `full`
compatibility profile.
- Improve tool descriptions/examples and add pinned, deterministic
`mcpgrade` static/probe CI.

## Compatibility and behavior

- Existing stdio clients continue to receive the `full` catalog by
default.
- Streamable HTTP is exposed at `/mcp`; the previous root route is
intentionally removed.
- `--transport http` is preferred; `--transport sse` remains a
deprecated current-major alias.
- Diagnostics decode/replay/key tools remain behind the existing
explicit security gate.
- N002 is disabled only for documented OPC UA standard and
compatibility-sensitive name pairs.

## Validation

- Release analyzer build: 0 warnings and 0 errors.
- MCP tests: 276/276 passed with focused Coverlet collection.
- MCP coverage: 82.73% lines, 78.96% branches.
- MCP patch coverage: 94.79% lines (291/307 changed coverable lines).
- `core`: 15 tools, mcpgrade A/100, zero findings.
- `full`: 78 tools, mcpgrade A/100; only documented T001, T004, and S007
findings remain.
- Full stdio probe: zero C003/C004 findings.

Marc Schier e73eb3a0e7 Fix source-generator package delivery and preview restore (Roslyn packaging) (#4041)
## Failure

The source-generator projects disabled normal build-output packing
without adding
their analyzer assemblies and private runtime closure back to the NuGet
payload.
Debug and Release packages also shared IDs, and both preview workflows
passed the
unsupported `--configuration` option to `dotnet restore`.

## Fix

- Package each generator and its private runtime closure under
`analyzers/dotnet/cs`, excluding Roslyn host assemblies and package
dependencies.
- Preserve Roslyn compile references for project-reference test
consumers.
- Give Debug generator packages `.Debug` IDs.
- Validate package contents and clean net10 consumers in both preview
pipelines.
- Remove invalid restore configuration arguments from both preview
workflows.

## Reference

- Roslyn analyzer packaging and MSBuild restore semantics; no normative
OPC UA change.
- Split from #4021.

## Tests

- `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests`: 68 passed on net10.0 and 68 on net48.
- `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Tests`: 90 passed on net10.0 and 87 on
net48.
- Generated `preview-pack.slnx` and restored it with
`--disable-parallel`.
- Packed both Release generators with `--no-build`; package-content
checks and two clean net10 consumer builds passed with zero
warnings/errors.

UA0003 unwrapped `Nullable<T>` before classifying OPC UA built-in
structs. That
reported valid nullable `== null` and `!= null` checks and offered fixes
whose
`.IsNull` semantics differ from nullable-value absence.

## Fix

- Leave `System.Nullable<T>` comparisons unchanged.
- Continue reporting direct null comparisons on OPC UA structs.
- Add coverage for nullable `NodeId` and `LocalizedText` operand
orderings.

## Reference

- OPC UA .NET 2.0 migration semantics.

Marc Schier 66be6731f4 Source generator: support compiled companion models and safe NodeState writes (#4063)
## Summary

Combines the compiled companion-model support from #4062 with the
NodeState emission fixes already in this PR. The model source generator
can now consume compiled companion `NodeSet2` models more reliably,
while generated factories consistently target base `NodeState` members
even when a generated subclass shadows them.

## Changes

### Compiled companion NodeSets

- Add `OpcUaStateTypeIndex` and wire it through `ModelSourceGenerator` /
`ModelCompilation` so standard (`ns=0`) node-state and method-state
class names are resolved from referenced `Opc.Ua.Core(.Types)` metadata.
- Add the model-generation-scoped `StandardMethodStateFallback`, which
degrades an unresolved standard typed `*MethodState` reference to
`global::Opc.Ua.MethodState` only when the type is neither available in
the compilation nor declared by the current generation pass.
- Keep declaration names outside the reference-only fallback policy,
propagate fallback state through the logical execution context, reuse
the immutable availability index, and use named incremental-generator
inputs instead of deep `Left` / `Right` chains.
- Escape generated fluent-builder XML documentation where browse names
can contain XML-sensitive characters.

### Safe NodeState factory emission

- Declare one base-typed `global::Opc.Ua.NodeState nodeState = state;`
local per generated factory.
- Use `nodeState` for base-member reads and writes to `NodeId`,
`SymbolicName`, `BrowseName`, `DisplayName`, `Description`, `WriteMask`,
`UserWriteMask`, `AccessRestrictions`, `ReleaseStatus`, `Categories`,
`Specification` and `IsPartOfTypeHierarchy`.
- Base-qualify the optional-child `previousNodeId` read, NodeId
comparison, and existing-child NodeId update.
- `global::`-qualify emitted `NodeId` / `ExpandedNodeId` namespace
prefixes to avoid namespace collisions.

### Supporting updates

- Expose `Opc.Ua.Types` internals to `Opc.Ua.Core.Encoders.Tests`.
- Update generator assertions and add focused fallback regression
coverage.

## Why

Compiled companion models can instantiate standard types whose curated
Core implementation does not expose the conventionally named typed
method-state class. The scoped fallback lets those models generate
without weakening the Stack generator or masking classes emitted by the
current model.

Separately, generated subclasses can shadow base `NodeState` properties
with strongly typed `new` properties. Routing base attributes through a
`NodeState`-typed local guarantees initialization reaches the intended
base member while keeping generated code smaller and clearer than
repeated casts.

## Validation

- Full `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core.Tests` on net10.0: **3718 passed /
8 skipped / 0 failed**.
- Combined focused generator coverage on net48: **21 passed / 0
failed**.
- Full `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Tests`: **68 passed / 0 failed**.
- Full `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.Tests`: **90 passed / 0 failed**.

## Context

This PR supersedes #4062 and contains both source-generator change sets.
The companion-model fallback remains the scoped interim workaround
tracked by #4060; a future upstream name-resolution step can remove it.
These changes also feed the experimental data-encodings work in #4007.

Marc Schier 3c4661d2bf Protect certificate and identity secrets in MCP and durable samples (OPC 10000-4 security) (#4043)
## Failure

MCP auto-accept mutated the shared application certificate manager and
accepted
every certificate error, so one permissive connection could affect
concurrent or
later strict sessions. The durable-subscription sample also serialized
complete
user identity tokens, including user-name passwords and issued bearer
tokens.

## Fix

- Isolate auto-accept certificate managers/configurations per connection
and keep
  their lifetime with the managed session.
- Auto-accept only `BadCertificateUntrusted`; retain strict validation
for all
  other certificate errors and shared sessions.
- Version the durable store and reject the previous unsafe format.
- Remove user-name passwords before persistence and reject issued-token
  subscriptions rather than storing bearer credentials.
- Add focused tools tests plus solution, project, and
durable-subscription docs.

## Reference

- OPC 10000-4 Session identity-token and application-certificate
security.
- Split from #4021.

## Tests

- `Opc.Ua.Tools.Tests` Release: 7 passed on net10.0; 4 passed on net48.
- `Quickstarts.Servers` Release builds passed on net10.0 and net48 with
zero warnings/errors.
- `Opc.Ua.Mcp` Release net10.0 build passed with zero warnings/errors.

Marc Schier 20d9d65a64 Fix generated configuration namespace resolution (#4019)
# Description

Fix source-generated configuration types whose explicit namespace
references constants emitted by the same generator pass. Roslyn cannot
resolve those constants while `[DataType]` attributes are analyzed, so
the generated XML codec silently fell back to `urn:memorybuffer` /
`urn:testdata` while the shipped configuration uses the model namespace
URIs.

This change:

- adds `MODELGEN021` to fail when an explicitly supplied
`[DataType.Namespace]` expression cannot be resolved;
- uses compile-time-available model namespace URIs for the MemoryBuffer
and TestData configuration types;
- restores production-shaped XML fixtures and exercises the
`UpdateExtension<T>()` / `ParseExtension<T>()` path;
- documents the source-generator namespace requirement and migration
guidance.

Targeted validation passed:

- `TypeGeneratorTests`: 17 tests on `net10.0` and `net48`;
- `ConfigurationRoundTripTests`: 4 tests on `net10.0` and `net48`.

Marc Schier 84fa8e8906 CTT follow-up: monitored items, alarms, codecs, history, and model validation (#4002)
# Description

Follow-up to #3978 based on the latest OPC UA CTT aggregate, matrix,
Historical Access, Attribute, and Node Management runs.

## Aggregate run 16

- Ignore synthetic `BadBoundNotFound` raw-bound markers when feeding
aggregate calculators.
- Add direct and live historian regression coverage.

## Multi-dimensional Variant matrices

- Fix `Variant.Copy()` so rank-2 Variant matrices preserve their payload
and dimensions.
- Enforce valid Variant matrix dimensions consistently across Binary,
JSON, XML stream, and XML parser codecs.
- Encoders return `BadEncodingError`; decoders return `BadDecodingError`
for malformed matrix dimensions.
- Add cross-codec valid/null/empty/malformed tests and a batched
ReferenceServer Read regression.
- Correct the previous CTT issue attribution: the invalid
`Scalar_Static_Arrays2D_Variant` server encoding poisoned the batched
CTT Read.

## Node Management AddNodes

- Return `BadNodeIdRejected` for unsupported requested-NodeId
namespaces.
- Validate hierarchical ReferenceType source/target NodeClass
constraints.
- Document run-18 confirmation that all remaining 15 AddNodes errors are
CTT project/script configuration issues.

## Historical Access and Attribute Services run 18

- Reject whitespace in `NumericRange` syntax with
`BadIndexRangeInvalid`.
- Add HistoryRead tests for operation-level invalid syntax and
per-DataValue `BadIndexRangeNoData`.
- Document CTT defects:
- `012.js` expects `BadIndexRangeNoData` at the operation level instead
of on returned DataValues;
  - `Err-012.js` uses a non-historizing node for an access-denied test;
- generic Attribute array helpers omit NodeId[] and StatusCode[]
conversion paths.

## Base Information model validation run 19

- Run the CTT main session as `sysadmin` over Basic256Sha256
SignAndEncrypt so SecurityAdmin RolePermissions and EncryptionRequired
restrictions are both satisfied without weakening the server model.
- Preserve predefined well-known NodeIds while making generated dynamic
type and optional-child factories allocate compatible per-instance
NodeIds, remap internal references, and update references from the
owning subtree.
- Materialize dynamic RoleType properties through generated helpers and
keep role-child string NodeIds disjoint from numeric RoleManager root
IDs.
- Add net48/net10 regressions for generator output, NodeId
allocation/reference remapping, DI mandatory children, dynamic roles,
and low-privilege versus SecurityAdmin Browse visibility.
- Document CTT defects for permission-unaware mandatory-child
validation, the UA 1.04 reference model used against a UA 1.05 server,
stale ServerDiagnostics cache, and the `ConformanceUnits` scalar/array
mismatch.

## Latest CTT full run and A&C run 20

- Fix Monitor Value Change V2 `036.js`: an ambiguous
`DataValue(StatusCode)` call encoded `BadIndexRangeNoData` as a Good
value.
- Prove all 19 configured matrix monitored items notify when the
selected value actually changes; document the independent `042.js`
script defects.
- Rebase dynamic `CertificateExpired` / `TrustListOutOfDate` alarm roots
and descendants, restore standard type declarations and ModellingRules,
and expose the cross-node-manager references.
- Deliver method-triggered events to every authorized Session, fixing
the two-Session Confirm scenario.
- Preserve locale-only `LocalizedText` values consistently across
Binary, JSON, and XML and align Acknowledge/Confirm comment behavior and
tests.
- Document the remaining proven CTT defects for TransactionDiagnostics,
SemanticChange, History `013`, PolicyId scope, A&C, durable
subscriptions, and Subscription Minimum events.

## Base synchronization

Merged `master` through `007cfaf90` (`#4010`, repository layout
consolidation) and retained the matrix regression tests at their new
`tests/` locations.

## Latest validation

- Focused merged-tree tests pass on net10 and net48.
- `Opc.Ua.Server` and `Quickstarts.Servers` Release builds complete with
0 warnings and 0 errors on net10 and net48.
- The existing
`DisableEnableViaTypeAndInstanceMethodNoEventsDuringDisabledAsync`
timing test took its documented inconclusive timeout path after the
layout merge; no test failure was reported.
