romanett 9b034f8291 Enable nullable reference types centrally; migrate all unset and annotations-only projects (#4700) 
# Description

Nullable reference types are now enabled once, in `common.props`, and
every project in the repository builds warning-clean with them.

**Configuration**
- `<Nullable>enable</Nullable>` lives in `common.props`. All per-project
`<Nullable>` settings are removed: 178 project files (enable,
annotations, and the `disable` in the three Aot test projects).
- 419 per-file `#nullable enable`/`restore` directives and the 4
`#nullable disable` directives are removed.
- Kept on purpose:
- The 5 `<auto-generated>` schema files (`UANodeSet.cs`, `UA Type
Dictionary.cs`, `OPCBinarySchema.cs`, `SecuredApplication.cs`,
`PInvokeHelper.cs`) keep `#nullable enable`. The compiler ignores the
project setting in generated code, so the directive is required there.
- `tests/Opc.Ua.Interop.LegacyPeer` keeps `disable`. It builds against
the 1.5.378 packages and does not import the repository props.
- `docs/DeveloperGuide.md` and `.github/copilot-instructions.md` now
describe the central setting.

**Migration** (the 43 unset and 13 annotations-only projects, roughly
10k diagnostics)
- **Production code: annotated at the declarations.** Covers
`tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core`, `src/Opc.Ua.Lds.Server` and the
LDS sample.
- Members, parameters and returns are nullable where null actually
flows.
- Null-check helpers carry `[NotNullWhen]` (`IsNull`, `IsValidXmlName`,
`IsMethodTypeDesign`).
- `CoreUtils.Format`, `Utils.Format`, `ITemplateWriter.WriteLine` take
`params object?[]`. `Template.AddReplacement` takes `string?` (rendering
already skips null replacements).
- `IRegisteredServerStore.RegisterAsync` returns
`Task<RegistrationEntry?>`: it returns null when a registration is
removed.
- Dereferences backed by an invariant (for example, the validated model)
use `!`, so runtime behaviour is unchanged.
- **Behavioural changes in production code** (small, deliberate):
- `NodeSetToModelDesign` throws `InvalidOperationException` when the
file is not a NodeSet. Before, it threw a NullReferenceException on the
next line.
- `ModelDesignValidator` starts its lookup tables empty instead of null.
A redundant `if (m_nodes == null) return;` guard is gone.
- **Test code: minimal annotations.**
  - `?` on values that can be null, `!` where the test asserts non-null.
  - `= null!` for fixture members assigned in SetUp.
- `TryGetStructure<T>(out T? x)` where the inferred `T?` broke the
`IEncodeable` constraint.
- A few redundant `== null` checks on structs (`NodeId`, `ArrayOf<T>`)
folded into the adjacent `IsNull`/`Count` checks.

**Notes for reviewers**
- The diff is large (~1,500 files) but almost entirely mechanical: `?`,
`!` and directive removal. The non-annotation changes are listed above.
- Known follow-up, not done here:
`IModelDesign.Namespaces/TargetNamespace/NamespaceUris` stay
non-nullable even though the validator returns null before it loads a
dictionary. Making them nullable would ripple through every generator
call site.

Copilot c03c128384 Treat code analysis (CA) warnings as errors and fix all surfaced analyzer warnings (#4680) 
# Description

`TreatWarningsAsErrors` was already enabled, but
`CodeAnalysisTreatWarningsAsErrors` was `false`, so Microsoft Code
Analysis (`CAxxxx`) warnings were non-fatal. This PR sets it to `true`
in `common.props` and fixes all 55 analyzer warnings the net10.0 build
reported.

**Production code**
- `SamplingGroup.cs`: CA2213 is a false positive here because the
detached `CancellationTokenSource` is disposed by `CancelSamplingLoop`
once the loop completes. It is suppressed with a pragma, a justification
and a TODO, following the existing pattern in
`ServerBase.RequestQueue.cs`.

**Tests**
- CA1861: constant array arguments are moved to `static readonly` fields
or replaced with `ArrayOf<T>` collection expressions. In the legacy
interop server I used locals instead, because those arrays become node
values that writes can change in place.
- CA2025: tasks that finish before disposal (`Assert.ThrowsAsync`, or
awaited before `using` scope exit) are suppressed with justification
comments, following existing test patterns.
- CA1812: classes created by the DI container are suppressed with a
comment and a TODO.
- CA2208: benchmark switch defaults now throw
`InvalidOperationException`.
- CA1845: `Substring(0, 8)` is replaced with `[..8]`.
- CA1307: `string.Replace` is replaced with `Split`/`Join`, which also
works on net48.
- CA5394: `Random` is replaced with `RandomNumberGenerator`.

**Docs**
- `docs/DeveloperGuide.md` now says CA warnings also fail the build, and
that any suppression needs a comment explaining why plus a TODO.

**Validation**
- I fixed the 55 warnings from a net10.0 build of `UA.slnx`
(`CustomTestTarget=net10.0`). That build ran before the setting was
turned on, and I have not rebuilt net10.0 since the fixes.
- `CustomTestTarget=net48` build of `UA.slnx`: 0 warnings, 0 errors.
- I also started a full build across all target frameworks with the
setting on. Its log showed no errors or warnings while it ran, but I
couldn't read its final result.
- No tests have been run yet; CI should confirm the multi-TFM build and
the tests.

romanett 35c08874ca Server view parameter status codes; client transfer fallback when GetMonitoredItems is unavailable (#4654) 
Two defects found by interop testing the 2.0 stack against foreign OPC
UA stacks (node-opcua, Milo, asyncua, open62541, async-opcua, gopcua).

## 1. Server: view timestamp/version without a ViewId returned
Bad_ViewIdUnknown

A Browse with a `ViewDescription` whose `ViewId` is null but whose
`Timestamp` (or `ViewVersion`) is set got `Bad_ViewIdUnknown` from the
node managers. `ViewDescription.IsDefault` is false, so
`ValidateViewDescription` looked up the null `ViewId` and failed with
"unknown view".

Spec (OPC 10000-4):
- §7.44: a null `viewId` means the entire AddressSpace. Timestamp and
viewVersion each select a version of the View, and "either the Timestamp
or the viewVersion parameter may be set by a Client, but not both".
- Table 178 / Browse service results (§5.9.2.3):
`Bad_ViewTimestampInvalid` = "the view timestamp is not available or not
supported", `Bad_ViewVersionInvalid` likewise, and
`Bad_ViewParameterMismatch` = the view parameters are not consistent
with each other.

Fix: a new internal `ViewDescriptionValidator.ValidateParameters`
handles the checks that don't depend on the View node:
- timestamp **and** version set → `Bad_ViewParameterMismatch` (before
this, a known view got `Bad_ViewTimestampInvalid`)
- null ViewId + timestamp → `Bad_ViewTimestampInvalid`
- null ViewId + version → `Bad_ViewVersionInvalid`

It is called at service level in
`NodeManagerServiceDispatcher.BrowseAsync`, because these are Browse
*service* results. It is also called in
`CustomNodeManager2.ValidateViewDescription`,
`AsyncCustomNodeManager.ValidateViewDescription` and the
`DiagnosticsNodeManager` override, so a node manager called directly
answers the same way. TranslateBrowsePaths and RegisterNodes take no
ViewDescription, and BrowseNext reuses the validated view from the
continuation point.

## 2. Client: transfer failed when the optional Server.GetMonitoredItems
is unavailable

After `TransferSubscriptions` returns Good, the client calls
`Server.GetMonitoredItems` (i=11492) to map server handles to client
handles. That call is only made for a subscription that is not live in
this client: one restored from saved state, or a clone. Its own live
subscriptions skip it. `GetMonitoredItems` is an **Optional** method of
ServerType (OPC 10000-5 §6.3.1, §9.1), and several stacks don't provide
it: asyncua 2.0.1 answers `BadNothingToDo`, open62541 built without
`UA_ENABLE_XML_ENCODING` answers `BadInternalError`, and others answer
`BadMethodInvalid` or `BadNotSupported`. When the call failed, the whole
transfer was reported as failed ("SubscriptionId N could not be moved")
even though the server had moved the subscription. For non-"definitive"
codes such as BadNothingToDo or BadInternalError, the transferred server
subscription was also left behind as an orphan.

### Chosen fallback

The status of a failed call is now classified
(`GetMonitoredItemsFallback.IsTransientFailure`):
- **Transient** (timeout, busy server, too many operations, lost
connection, channel or session): behaviour is unchanged. The transfer
fails and nothing is deleted, so it can be retried.
- **Anything else** (method missing, not supported, BadNothingToDo,
BadInternalError, unusable output): the server does not provide the
method. Then:
1. **The client knows server ids for its items** (the usual case:
restored state, or a reconnect of its own subscription). Use that
mapping and the transfer succeeds. A transfer keeps item ids and client
handles, which is why OPC 10000-4 §6.8 tells clients to store the
SubscriptionId together with the MonitoredItem client and server
handles. Items saved without an id were never created on the server, and
the normal apply path creates them, as before.
2. **No server ids are known** (a clone of a live subscription,
`CloneSubscriptions`). Notifications would still arrive, because clones
copy the client handles. But the items could never be modified or
deleted, and recreating them would duplicate them on the server, since
stale items can't be deleted without their ids. So:
- classic engine, when the caller just moved the subscription
(`Session.TransferSubscriptionsAsync`): delete the transferred server
subscription and **recreate it in place** with the same items and client
handles. The transfer reports success, but notifications the server
still had queued for the old subscription are lost. The subscription
gets a new id.
- classic `Subscription.TransferAsync` (also used to adopt the session's
own subscriptions, so nothing was moved): fails as before, and nothing
is deleted or created.
- new engine (`MonitoredItemManager.TrySynchronizeHandlesAsync`): fails
as before. Its callers (`SubscriptionManager`) already recreate the
subscription in that case.

Both engines now treat an unusable GetMonitoredItems answer (wrong
output arguments) the same way as an unavailable method. The two
existing
`TryCompleteTransferAsyncShouldReturnFalseWhenResponseWrong{1,2}Async`
tests were updated and renamed to match. The existing classic test that
expected a "definitive" failure to delete the subscription now checks
the fallback to the known ids instead.

Warnings are logged when the fallback is used (`Subscription + 71..73`,
`MonitoredItemManager + 6`).

## Tests

- Server:
`AsyncCustomNodeManagerTests.BrowseAsyncNullViewIdWithVersionParametersReturnsViewParameterErrorAsync`
(sync and async node manager, timestamp, version, both) and
`MasterNodeManagerDeterministicTests.BrowseAsyncNullViewIdWithVersionParametersThrowsViewParameterError`
(service level).
- Classic client (`ClassicSubscriptionCoverageTests`): fallback to known
ids for every non-transient code, while transient codes still fail; a
Bad method result (asyncua style); clone recreated in place (old
subscription deleted, items created with the original client handles);
clone adopted through `TransferAsync` is neither deleted nor recreated.
- New engine (`SubscriptionTests`): known ids used for Bad /
BadMethodInvalid / BadNotSupported / BadNothingToDo / BadInternalError;
transient failure and unknown ids still fail.

Run locally (net10.0, sequential):
- Opc.Ua.Client.Tests: 2745 passed / 0 failed
- Opc.Ua.Server.Tests: 8089 passed / 0 failed / 5 skipped
- Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Durable.Tests: 36 passed / 11 skipped
- Opc.Ua.InformationModel.Tests (View/Browse filter): 289 passed / 4
skipped
- Opc.Ua.Sessions.Tests (Transfer/Reconnect filter): 155 passed / 103
skipped
- Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests (Transfer/Durable filter): 15 passed / 1
skipped
- net48 build of both test projects: clean

The interop test that found (2),
`ServerFeatureInteropTests.TransferSubscriptionToNewSessionAsync`, is in
the uncommitted foreign-interop work and isn't on master yet.

romanett 61edaa1ed0 Remove netstandard2.1 and net472 target frameworks (#4624) 
# Description

Drops support for **netstandard2.1** and **.NET Framework 4.7.2**.
Libraries now target `net48`, `net8.0`, `net9.0` and `net10.0`.
`Opc.Ua.Types` and `Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Core` still also target
`netstandard2.0`, but only because the Roslyn source generators load
them. There is no general netstandard2.0 support.

**Preprocessor directives** (112 files)
- Every `#if`/`#elif` mentioning `NETSTANDARD2_1*`, `NET472*`,
`NET_STANDARD_TESTS`, `SKIP_ECC_CERTIFICATE_REQUEST_SIGNING` or
`NETSTANDARD*` was evaluated against the remaining TFM set (net48,
net8/9/10, plus netstandard2.0 inside `Opc.Ua.Types`/`tools`) and
simplified. Dead branches were removed.
- Example: `NETSTANDARD2_1 || NET8_0_OR_GREATER` → `NET8_0_OR_GREATER`.
- Example: `NET8_0_OR_GREATER || NET472_OR_GREATER` → removed (always
true).
- Netstandard-only code was removed: `UnixFileModeShim`, the CRDT
reflection path in `ReplicatedGossipOptions.CreateReaderOptions`, and
the netstandard2.1-only test variants.

**Custom test logic**
- `targets.props` drops the `net472`, `netstandard2.0` and
`netstandard2.1` `CustomTestTarget` profiles, `NetStandardTests` and
`SKIP_ECC_CERTIFICATE_REQUEST_SIGNING`. Supported values are now
`net48`, `net8.0`, `net9.0`, `net10.0`.
- The `NET_STANDARD_TESTS` define is removed from 29 test projects.
- The "build netstandard shells as net10.0" overrides are removed from
18 projects.
- `RestrictForLegacyTfm` now only applies to `net48`.
- `tests/customtest.bat` is updated to the new values.

**Build / packaging / CI**
- MSBuild TFM conditions are simplified: Kestrel package choice, MQTTnet
v4 (net48 only), BouncyCastle, Di/OpenUsd/Vision/Stress test excludes,
and `System.IO.FileSystem.AccessControl` (dropped from Core).
- The MigrationAnalyzer nuspec drops its net472/netstandard2.1 lib
groups. The Azure signing lists are updated.
- `get-ci-matrix.ps1` removes the net472/netstandard test profiles
(including the PR-gating `linux-netstandard2.1`) and the matching build
legs.

**Breaking API change (2.0 preview):** removed
`HttpsTransportListener.IsWssTransportSupported` and
`ReplicatedGossipOptions.IsGossipStateDecodingSupported`. They only
returned `false` on netstandard2.1 and are now always `true`. The test
guards that used them were removed as well.

**Docs**
- NuGet READMEs, `README.md`, `DeveloperGuide.md`, `PubSub.md`, the
certificate/ECC/identity docs and the 2.0 migration guide (plus its
`.agents` skill mirror) are updated.
- The migration guide notes that 4.7.2 consumers must move to 4.8 and
netstandard2.1 consumers to net8.0+.

### Reviewer notes
- The `System.IO.FileSystem.AccessControl` `PackageVersion` pin is left
in `Directory.Packages.props`. It has no direct reference any more, but
transitive pinning is on, so it was kept to avoid shifting resolved
versions.
- The `#if` rewrite was done mechanically by a truth-table evaluator.
The diff in the `.cs` files is limited to directive lines, removed dead
branches, and stale-comment updates.

### Verified locally
- `dotnet build UA.slnx -p:CustomTestTarget=net48`: 0 errors.
- `dotnet build UA.slnx -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0`: 0 errors.
- Default multi-target builds (no `CustomTestTarget`) of Opc.Ua.Types,
Bindings.Https, PubSub.Mqtt and Redundancy.Server succeeded.
- net10.0 tests:
  - Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Server.Tests: 840/840 passed.
  - Opc.Ua.Types.Tests: 11363 passed, 1 skipped.
  - ModelDependencyScanner tests: 20/20 passed.
- The full test suite was **not** run locally.

romanett 87c35b84b6 Fix Opc.Ua.Client audit findings (security fallback, reconnect, subscriptions, redundancy, browse, files, WebApi) (#4572) 
## Summary

Fixes the findings of a bug audit of `Opc.Ua.Client` and
`Opc.Ua.Client.ComplexTypes`, done on master plus #4516 (now merged).

- **Audit:** 82 findings across 12 areas, each checked against the OPC
UA specification. Final severities: 2 High, 37 Medium, 43 Low.
- **Fixes:** 76 fixed, 4 partial, 2 skipped (see [Not
fixed](#not-fixed--partial)).
- **Review:** a follow-up review of the fixes found 15 more defects in
them, all fixed here.
- **Tests:** every fix has a regression test, except a few races that
cannot be reproduced deterministically; the commit messages say which.

The finding IDs (`L<area>-<n>` for the audit, `G<n>` for the review)
appear in the commit titles.

## Behaviour and user-facing changes

### Security and endpoint selection
- **Reconnect no longer drops to weaker security (L3-1, High).** When
the server rejects the configured security policy or mode during
reconnect, `SessionReconnectHandler` no longer switches to whatever
endpoint the server advertises, None included. It only picks an endpoint
at least as strong as the configured one, judged by a locally computed
security level. The server-advertised `SecurityLevel` is not trusted. If
nothing qualifies, reconnect fails with the original error (new log
event `SessionReconnectHandler + 13`) and keeps retrying with the
original settings.
- **`CoreClientUtils.SelectEndpoint(useSecurity: true)` never returns a
SecurityMode None endpoint over opc.tcp (L9-9, High).** It now returns
`null` when no secure endpoint matches.
- When the discovery URL is `https`/`opc.https`, an HTTPS endpoint with
SecurityMode None is still accepted as a last resort, because TLS
protects it (Part 6 §7.4.1) (G17).
  - Endpoints with SecurityMode `Invalid` no longer count as secure.
- `GlobalDiscoveryServerClient` and `ServerPushConfigurationClient` now
throw `BadSecurityPolicyRejected` when no secure endpoint matches,
instead of passing `null` on. The ConsoleReferenceClient sample reports
this with a clear error.
- **No Bearer/Basic credentials over `http://` (L12-2).**
`WebApiClient.Create` and WebApi channel open/reconnect reject them with
`BadSecurityChecksFailed`. The public `WebApiClient(HttpClient, …)`
constructor also rejects them when the client's `BaseAddress` is not
https, and every send checks the address it actually goes to (covers a
`BaseAddress` set later).

### Session, keep-alive and identity
- **Faster detection of a silent server (L1-1).** The keep-alive Read is
now bounded by its `TimeoutHint` (2 × `KeepAliveInterval`), which is
what Part 4 §7.32 says the client should do. It then fails with
`BadNoCommunication`, so reconnect starts after about 2 ×
`KeepAliveInterval` instead of `OperationTimeout` (120 s by default).
- **Operations fail fast during a channel-manager recovery (L1-2, G9).**
`UpdateIdentityAsync`, `TransferSubscriptionsAsync` and
`ReactivateSubscriptionsAsync` fail with `BadSecureChannelClosed`
(retryable) instead of deadlocking. This covers the operation holding
the reconnect lock and any queued behind it.
- **Closing or disposing from a handler no longer waits on itself (L1-3,
G5, G6).**
- `Session` and `ManagedSession` Close/Dispose from a Notification
handler no longer wait 30 s for their own background drain.
- Disposing a `ManagedSession` from a keep-alive `PublishStatusChanged`
handler no longer deadlocks.
- Tasks spawned by a handler no longer count as "the handler" (the owner
marker is scoped to the work item).
- **Switching to an ECC user-token policy takes two ActivateSession
calls (L1-4, G4).** This follows Part 6 §6.8.2 (fetch the ephemeral key,
then activate).
- If the server returns no key, the switch fails with
`BadSecurityPolicyRejected`.
- If the second activation is rejected, the old identity stays on the
override policy with the key just fetched. Restoring the old key was
tried: against the reference server the next reconnect then failed to
decrypt the identity token.
- **`ManagedSession.ConfiguredEndpoint` follows failover (L2-6).** It
now reports the inner session's endpoint, so it changes after a failover
or network-path rotation.
- **An explicit identity update replaces the identity provider (L2-7).**
`ManagedSession.UpdateSessionAsync(identity)` stops the provider's
refresh loop and drops the provider for good. If the update fails, the
loop is restarted.
- **Reconnect waits for in-flight calls on a healthy channel (L2-3,
G8a).** Reconnect/failover on a healthy channel (certificate or
trust-list change, manual reconnect) waits for in-flight service calls.
The wait is bounded (max(`KeepAliveInterval`, 1 s)) only once the
channel is unhealthy (keep-alive stopped, channel not Ready), so a dead
channel no longer holds recovery for `OperationTimeout`.
- **Smaller fixes:**
- Restore reads the server certificate as a chain; this failed on macOS
(L1-5).
  - Session recovery can no longer run twice at once (L1-6).
  - Identity expiries more than 49.7 days out no longer throw (L2-2).
- Keep-alive reconnect suppression is recalculated on a lease swap
(L2-4).

### Reconnect state machine and reverse connect
- **⚠ `MaxTotalReconnectTime = 0` now means "no time limit" (L3-7).
Reviewer decision needed.** Before, 0 disabled reconnect entirely.
Negative values other than `Timeout.InfiniteTimeSpan` now throw
`ArgumentOutOfRangeException` when the state machine is constructed;
before, they crashed the worker. The XML docs of
`ReconnectPolicy`/`ReconnectPolicyOptions` are updated. If 0 should keep
meaning "no reconnect", this is a one-line revert.
- **A close racing the end of the reconnect budget is no longer lost
(L3-4).** It goes through the normal close instead of switching to
failover.
- **The "reconnect worker" marker covers one step only (L2-1).** It
lasts for a single connect/reconnect/failover/close step. Keep-alive,
publish and identity loops started in a step no longer count as the
worker afterwards.
- **Reverse-connect strategies `Undefined` and `Any` alone are removed
after the first callback (L8-1).** This matches the documentation;
before, they behaved like `Always`.
- **`AddEndpoint` for a URL that is already added disposes the replaced
listener (L8-2).**

### Service calls
- **Batched calls clean up after a failed later batch (L3-2).** When a
later batch of
`Browse`/`BrowseNext`/`HistoryRead`/`CreateMonitoredItems` fails, the
continuation points and monitored items created by earlier batches are
released or deleted before the exception is rethrown. This adds one
request. `AddNodes`/`RegisterNodes` are not undone.
- **Batched diagnostic infos point at the right strings (L3-3).** The
string-table indexes are rebased when diagnostics are padded.
- **`ReadBytesAsync` rejects oversized responses (L3-5).** It throws
`BadUnknownResponse` when the server returns more bytes than requested,
and `BadEncodingLimitsExceeded` beyond `int` range.
- **`ReadByteStringInChunksAsync` handles an unknown server limit
(L3-6).** When the server's `MaxByteStringLength` is 0 (absent) or
larger than `int`, it falls back to the client's
`MessageContext.MaxByteStringLength`. It throws only when both are
unknown.

### Browse and NodeCache
- **Empty browse pages with a continuation point are followed (L9-1,
L9-4, L9-5, G16).** Part 4 §5.9.2.1 allows a server to return an empty
page with a continuation point, so browsing keeps following it. After 10
consecutive empty rounds it gives up with `BadNoData` and releases the
continuation point.
- `BrowseAsync(NodeId)` now throws instead of silently returning a
truncated list.
  - `BrowseStreamAsync` yields a `BadNoData` result for that node.
- The same cap, through one shared helper, now also protects
`RoleManagementClient.ListRolesAsync` and the FileSystem
enumerate/empty-check loops.
- **Continuation points are released on failure (L9-3).**
`BrowseAsync(NodeId)` releases them on any exception, and
`BrowseStreamAsync` releases all points of the current page when the
consumer stops early.
- **NodeCache lookups propagate cancellation (L9-6, L9-8).**
`FindAsync`, `IsKnownAsync`, `FetchNodeAsync`,
`FindReferenceTypeNameAsync`, the reference-table fill and the
type-hierarchy search now let `OperationCanceledException` through.
Before, a cancelled lookup looked like "node does not exist".
- **A NodeClass mismatch fails only that node (L9-7).** It returns
`BadNodeClassInvalid` for that node instead of throwing
`KeyNotFoundException` for the whole batch.
- **Smaller fixes:**
- `MaxNodesPerBrowse` ≥ 2^31 no longer breaks the managed browse (L9-2).
  - Null discovery URLs are skipped (L9-10).
  - `ModelChangeTracker` no longer cancels a joined start (L9-11).
- **Log changes:** `BrowserContinuationPointExistsButBrowse` (Browser +
0) was removed, and `BrowserServerReturnedEmptyReferencesBut` now
includes the round count.

### Subscriptions (default engine)
- **Recovery after a transfer delivers each message exactly once (L5-1,
G22).** Messages already dispatched are acknowledged instead of
republished and delivered again. Messages whose earlier republish failed
are now republished and delivered, with the Republish flag and after
newer messages, instead of being acknowledged and lost.
- **A keep-alive that proves a gap triggers republish at once (L5-5,
G23).** The dedup mark moves only past messages that were actually
recovered, so a failed republish is retried by the next data message.
- **Item changes that fail are retried with backoff (L5-3).** They are
retried on the next apply pass after the state manager's 250 ms–5 s
backoff, instead of six times back to back. The six attempts now span
about 13 s.
- **Extreme revised intervals no longer throw (L5-4, L6-1).** Very large
or NaN intervals and counts revised by the server are capped (NaN falls
back to the requested value). Before, the overflow could stop every
publish worker.
- **`SetTriggeringAsync` from a callback no longer hangs (L5-7, G21).**
While the subscription is deleted, recreated or disposed, it returns
`BadOperationAbandoned`. A cancelled reset no longer makes later calls
fail.
- **Publish responses for unknown subscription ids (L6-3, L6-4, G20).**
The client no longer re-sends acknowledgements the server already
processed. An unknown id seen while a creation is pending is left alone
instead of being deleted.
- **Smaller fixes:**
- A null and an empty `IndexRange` are treated as equal, and restored
snapshots use `null` (L5-6).
  - A failed partition attach during restore is rolled back (L6-2).
- `StreamingSubscription` throws `ObjectDisposedException` after dispose
(L6-6).

### Subscriptions (classic `Subscription`)
- **Republish no longer abandons other missing messages (L7-1).** A
Republish response no longer overwrites `AvailableSequenceNumbers`, so
other missing messages are not given up while the server still holds
them.
- **Late copies are no longer delivered twice (L7-2).** Copies of
already-processed sequence numbers are ignored, and creating a new
server subscription resets the sequence state.
- **Disposing from a keep-alive handler no longer deadlocks (L7-3).**
`Dispose()` from a keep-alive `PublishStatusChanged` handler can return
while that callback is still finishing.
- **Transfer of a restored subscription (L7-4, G27).**
  - It succeeds even when some saved items were never created.
- The server subscription is deleted only when this session's own
TransferSubscriptions just moved it and adoption failed definitively
(item count mismatch or a non-transient status). Transient errors and
`ReactivateSubscriptionsAsync` never delete it.
  - The public `Subscription.TransferAsync` never deletes.
- **Smaller fixes:**
  - Cloned items keep their triggering links (L7-5).
  - `CreateAsync` clears stale server ids (L7-6).
- A `Good_SubscriptionTransferred` for the client's own transfer is
ignored (L7-7).
- An item removed while its create is in flight is deleted afterwards
(L7-8).
- The publish timeout for very long keep-alives no longer overflows
(L7-9).
  - A negative `MaxMessageCount` is handled (L7-10).
  - `LastMessage` tolerates a wrong notification type (L7-11).
  - Pending acks exactly 2^31 away no longer throw (L4-1).
- **Log changes:** new log events `Subscription + 68..70`.

### Redundancy
- **Warm/Hot demotion (L4-2, G1, G3).**
- Without token reuse, the demoted leader closes its session and
reconnects as a fresh standby.
- With token reuse, it abandons the shared server session locally,
without CloseSession, so the new leader can reactivate it and keep its
subscriptions. This uses the new internal methods
`ManagedSession.AbandonServerSessionAsync` and
`Session.AbandonServerSession`.
- `RoleChanged(false)` is now raised before the standby connect and no
longer depends on it, so `CurrentSession` can briefly be `null`.
- Exceptions from `RoleChanged` handlers are logged and do not stop the
teardown.
- **Promotion (L4-3, G2).** A promoted standby that adopts the leader's
session first closes its own server session. A retried promotion keeps
the session it already adopted.
- **Client failover takeover (L4-4, partial).** Subscriptions the backup
prepared in advance (not yet created, `TransferId` set to the active
client's id) are moved through the session's own transfer and keep
publishing. `docs/HighAvailability.md` is updated.
- **`ShouldFailover` through the interface (L4-6).** Calling it through
`IServerRedundancyHandler` no longer fails over away from a server that
is still Healthy.

### Fluent / dependency injection
- **Shared DI session (L10-5).** The shared session from `AddClient` is
reconnected after a caller disposes it, and is disposed with the
container. After that the connect delegate throws
`ObjectDisposedException`.
- **New public API:
`ManagedSessionBuilder.WithServerRedundancyOptions(ServerRedundancyOptions)`
(L10-6).** This is additive. The `Session.ServerRedundancy` options are
now actually applied.
- **`AddDiscoveryAndConnect` rewrites the advertised address (L10-7).**
It replaces the host and port the server advertises with those of the
discovery URL (Part 4 §5.6.2.1, NAT/containers), and prefers endpoints
with the same scheme.

### State machines and role management
- **`GetSubStateMachineAsync` returns the instance's own sub-state
machine (L10-1).** Before, it returned the type's placeholder.
- **`WaitForStateAsync` reports failures with OPC UA status codes
(L10-2).** It throws `BadNotFound` when `CurrentState/Id` cannot be
resolved, and `BadInvalidState` when observation ends without reaching
the state. Before, both surfaced as `OperationCanceledException`.
- **`RoleManagementClient.ListRolesAsync` pages correctly (L10-3).** It
follows continuation points, releases them on any failure, and throws on
a Bad browse status instead of returning an empty list.
- **Role properties are read into the right fields (L10-4).** Properties
whose namespace cannot be resolved are skipped instead of shifting the
other values.

### File system, temporary files and alias names
- **Path escaping (L11-8, G12).**
- Path segments escape `:` and `/` with `&`, and `&` itself as `&&`
before those characters or at the end of a name.
- `Format` and `Parse` round-trip all names. Typed input ending in `&/`
now reads the slash as part of the name.
- A segment without a namespace prefix also matches a namespace-0 child
when nothing matches in the parent's namespace.
- **Stale path cache (L11-1).** When a cached lookup fails,
`GetInfoAsync` retries once from the server. `ExistsAsync` and
`GetFileAsync` report "not found" instead of throwing.
- **`GenerateFileForReadAsync` waits for the file (L11-2).** It waits
until the file-generation state machine reaches ReadTransfer (`Idle`
counts as not started yet), and throws `IOException` if it reports
Error. The wait is bounded only by the caller's token.
- **Non-recursive delete refuses hidden children (L11-3).** It refuses
when the directory holds children that the subtype options hide from
enumeration. Before, the server deleted them all.
- **Alias names (L11-5, L11-6, L11-7).**
- `BadMethodInvalid` maps to `NotSupportedException` for all alias
calls, so `UseVerbose` falls back to `FindAlias`.
  - A duplicate alias name resolves to all its targets.
- If the refresh strategy fails to start, the resolver logs a warning
and keeps working without automatic invalidation. New log event block
`AliasNameResolver = 560`.
- **Null profile entries (L11-4).** Null `ServerProfileArray` entries no
longer crash `GetConformanceInfoAsync`.

### WebApi transport
- **Failures come back as `ServiceResultException` (L12-1).**
  - A timeout becomes `BadRequestTimeout`.
- HTTP 429/503 becomes `BadServerTooBusy` with the Retry-After hint, on
every target framework. `WebApiClient` checks the status itself (reusing
`HttpsTransportChannel.CreateServerTooBusyException`), so callers of
`WebApiClient` also get a `ServiceResultException` instead of an
`HttpRequestException` for these two statuses (G15).
  - An IO error becomes `BadNotConnected`.
- **Timeouts (L12-1, G14).**
- `OperationTimeout` applies to each request. When `RequestTimeout` is
unset, HttpClient's 100 s default no longer cuts off long Publish
requests.
- The GetEndpoints call at open is bounded by `OperationTimeout`, and
cancelling the open now throws.
- **Core change:** `HttpsTransportChannel.MapRequestFailure` went from
private to internal so the WebApi channel can reuse it.

### ComplexTypes
- **Out-of-range union selector (L12-3).** A union whose SwitchField is
larger than its field count now fails with `BadDecodingError` when
decoded and `BadEncodingError` when encoded (Part 6 §5.2.8).
- **Verbose JSON unions (L12-4).** They now decode their selected field
instead of `null`.

## Not fixed / partial
- **L2-5 (skipped):** an identity provider combined with a
caller-supplied reverse connection still can't connect to an
undiscovered endpoint. Fixing it means choosing the identity after
CreateSession, a design change.
- **L4-5 (skipped):** the one-time KeyCredential token needs a fresh
token on each reactivation. Today reactivation fails and the client
falls back to a new session.
- **L4-4 (partial):** only subscriptions the backup prepared in advance
survive a takeover.
- **L3-2 (partial):** `AddNodes`/`RegisterNodes` batches are not rolled
back.
- **L2-3 (partial):** service calls still hold the session lock for
their whole round trip.
- **Known from the review, not fixed here:**
  - G7: the batch cleanup request can't be cancelled.
- G11: the DI session's close at host shutdown never reaches the server,
and a closed session keeps being handed out.
- G13: a file renamed by another client is still found under its old
path.
  - G25: a clone-based transfer doesn't mark the original subscriptions.
  - G27b: the transfer item check matches by count, not by ID.
- **Outside this PR:** the reference server ignores `ECDHPolicyUri` on
ActivateSession (`SessionSecurityPolicyHelper`), which breaks Part 6
§6.8.2. As a result, the L1-4 two-step ECC switch ends in
`BadSecurityPolicyRejected` against our own server.

romanett 442889cba5 Fix source generator audit findings; conform structure-field matrices and type metadata to OPC UA 1.05 (#4569) 
# Description

This PR fixes a bug audit of the source generation projects
(`tools/Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration*`: model loading, NodeSet import, all
emitters, the Roslyn hosts and packaging). It also fixes a max-effort
code review of those fixes, and a check of every spec-relevant change
against the OPC UA 1.05 text.

- **Scope:** about 85 audit findings, 48 review findings and 32
spec-grounding items were addressed. Each fix has a regression test that
fails without it.
- **Wire change:** it includes one deliberate, stack-wide wire change:
**structure-field matrices now follow OPC 10000-6 5.2.5 Table 28**.

Most changes are internal correctness fixes. The sections below list
every change a user can observe: wire formats, generated code and API,
generated address-space content, diagnostics and runtime behaviour.

## Behaviour / user-facing changes

### Wire format (encoders)
- **Binary inline matrices** (OPC 10000-6 5.2.5 Table 28).
- **Layout:** a multi-dimensional *structure field* is encoded as
`Int32[] Dimensions`, then the values **without a length prefix**, with
at least 2 dimensions.
- **Empty and null:** any dimension <= 0 means no values follow, and a
null matrix is `-1`. An empty matrix is written as `[0,0]`.
- **Compatibility:** this is **not compatible with earlier builds of
this SDK** for matrix fields. It applies to generated types,
`[DataType]` types, `Structure`, client ComplexTypes and
`WriteEncodeableMatrix`.
  - **Unchanged:** Variant matrices (5.2.2.16) keep their old encoding.
- **Declared rank decides matrix vs array.** A 1-D `MatrixOf<T>` in an
array field or a Variable value is written as an array again.
Matrix-declared fields go through the new public
`EncoderExtensions.WriteInlineMatrixValue`, which generated code also
uses. A non-empty 1-D value in a matrix field throws `BadEncodingError`.
- **Decoder hardening:**
- Before allocating, the decoder bounds all matrix dimensions against
overflow, `MaxArrayLength` and the remaining message length.
  - The decoder rejects:
    - a matrix with fewer than 2 dimensions;
- a populated matrix whose rank differs from the field's declared rank;
    - a union SwitchField greater than the number of fields;
    - an EncodingMask with unassigned bits set.
- **Encoder `MaxArrayLength`:** the encoder enforces `MaxArrayLength`
for inline matrices, as it already did for arrays.
- **XML structure fields** (5.3.1, 5.3.4, 5.3.5).
- **Fields:** `Structure` and client ComplexTypes write fields like
typed fields (`<A>1</A>`, array elements directly) instead of a Variant
body.
- **Matrix fields:** `Dimensions` and `Elements` go directly inside the
field element, with no `<Matrix>` wrapper.
- **Empty matrices:** written as nil, because XML dimensions must be
greater than 0.
  - **Compatibility:** decoders still accept the old shapes.
- **Enum fixes:** enum array elements with value 0 are no longer
dropped, and enum array element names are fixed.
- **Other encoding fixes:**
- A null `DiagnosticInfo` structure field writes `0x00` instead of
nothing.
- A null scalar field in a runtime `Structure` is written as its default
instead of zero bytes, which used to shift every following field.
- A Variant holding an empty matrix encodes as an empty array instead of
throwing.
  - `Variant.Copy` keeps the matrix identity of null and empty matrices.
- **NodeSet export and the DataContract surrogate** write Variable
values with the Variant rules again. A null or empty `MatrixOf` variable
no longer produces invalid XML or unreadable NodeSets.
- **`JsonEncoder.CanOmitFields`** is `true` only for Compact encoding.
Verbose and RawData JSON include default-valued fields.

### `[DataType]` source-generated types
- **Default-value handling** (OPC 10000-6 5.4.1, Table 1).
- **Encode:** a field is omitted only when its value *and* its declared
default are the type's default (0, false, null). Fields with a
non-default initializer or constructor default, and empty strings, are
always written, so configuration files get slightly larger.
- **JSON decode:** a field missing from JSON decodes to the type
default.
- **XML decode:** a field missing from XML keeps its declared default,
which older configuration files rely on.
- **Why:** this fixes silent round-trip loss, for example
`SamplingInterval = 0` read back as `-1`.
- **Nested `[DataType]` types:** they are now generated inside their
containing types. Without an explicit id, their default TypeId and
XmlName are qualified (e.g. `s=Outer.Foo`); **wire identity change** for
nested types. Colliding activator names get a `_2` suffix.
- **Activators:** they are `internal` when the type, or any containing
type, is not public (was CS0060).
- **Matrix properties:**
  - `MatrixOf<T>` properties use the inline matrix encoding.
- Matrices of non-sealed structures, or with
`StructureHandling.ExtensionObject`, are written as ExtensionObjects.
- Their published ValueRank is 2, because the rank can't be known from
`MatrixOf<T>`.
- **Published StructureDefinitions:**
  - They include base-class fields.
  - Nullable properties are no longer marked optional.
  - Inline structure fields name their concrete type.
- **`[Flags]` enums:** they are published as plain enumerations with
their member values, which matches how they are encoded.
- **Other generated code:**
- `Clone` deep-copies arrays and matrices of structures, Variants,
ExtensionObjects and DataValues.
- `IsEqual` and `GetHashCode` are consistent: EncodingMask, active union
member and NaN handling agree.
- Pooled `Reuse()` restores the freshly constructed state through the
new `protected virtual ResetForReuse()`, and returns an instance to its
runtime type's pool.
- **Enum capture:** enum member values are captured culture-invariantly.
Negative values were lost on cultures that use U+2212 as the minus sign.

### Model-driven generator: generated code, API and file names
- **Removed API:** generated `*_Placeholder` proxy accessors (e.g.
`PowerTrainTypeClient.GetMotorIdentifier_PlaceholderAsync`) and fluent
`X_Placeholder()` accessors are removed; they could never resolve
anything.
- Proxy accessors now look children up by BrowseName with the right
namespace.
- `RoboticsClient` finds motors and gears by type and drives via
`IsDrivenBy`. Its topology snapshots used to be empty.
- **Renamed files:** generated files for a bound `[NodeManager]` are now
named `{Namespace}.{Class}.NodeManager.g.cs` (also `.Factory` and
`.FluentBuilders`).
- **Generated NodeState code:**
- Attributes are set through `baseState`/`nodeState` locals, so children
named like base attributes (e.g. `DataType`, `EventNotifier`) compile.
- Children that hide base members are declared `public new`, using names
reflected from the runtime.
  - `global::` qualification is used throughout.
- **Proxies and fluent builders:** a proxy whose supertype is excluded
(e.g. Draft) derives from the nearest emitted ancestor. Fluent wrappers
and NodeState factories fall back the same way; they used to fail with
CS0246.
- **Derived structures:**
  - The optional-field `EncodingMask` continues across inheritance.
- A derived structure over a base type from another model no longer
relies on `base.ResetForReuse`.
- **Default values:**
- NodeId, QualifiedName and ExpandedNodeId defaults resolve by namespace
URI (`context.NamespaceUris.GetIndexOrAppend`) and server URI.
- StatusCode, negative enum, `double`/`float` (shortest round-trip
literal) and escaped string defaults now compile.
- **Event records:**
- Vendor event records have `Decoder.GetStandardFields(NamespaceTable)`,
and their browse paths use the model's namespace.
- A field whose namespace is unknown to the session no longer matches a
namespace-0 field.
  - Companion `StandardFields` is `[Obsolete]`.
- Vendor simple subtypes such as `Percent : Double` map to their
built-in type.
- **Other fixes:**
- `MethodState.CallAsync` passes the real `objectId` to synchronous
`OnCallMethod2` handlers; it used to pass `NodeId.Null`.
- Enumeration fields with an explicit `Identifier` keep it, instead of
taking a trailing `_<digits>`.
  - Explicit NumericIds are no longer reused by automatic numbering.
  - Dependencies are loaded in topological order.

### Generated address-space content
- **Arguments:**
- Methods without arguments no longer get empty
`InputArguments`/`OutputArguments` properties (OPC 10000-3 5.7).
- About 2,660 automatically assigned namespace-0 NodeIds of 15000 and
above shift. Every NodeId in `StandardTypes.csv` is unchanged.
- **Permissions:** type nodes and method declarations on types now carry
the model's `RolePermissions`/`AccessRestrictions`.
- **Restored nodes:** NodeSet import keeps nodes that were silently
dropped before:
- `NamespaceMetadata` objects and the NodeSet's own TypeDictionary
variables;
  - ISA95 placeholders linked only non-hierarchically;
  - instances whose parent is in another namespace.
- **Import details:**
  - ValueRank > 1 without ArrayDimensions keeps its rank.
  - `svr=` indexes map correctly.
  - Invalid MinimumSamplingInterval values import as -1, not 0.
  - Localized texts prefer the invariant or English translation.
- **StructureDefinitions:**
- They include inherited fields, including for subtypes without their
own fields (e.g. `AnonymousIdentityToken` now publishes PolicyId).
  - The StructureType kind covers inherited AllowSubTypes fields.
  - Unions ignore IsOptional.
- StructureFields never publish ValueRank 0; a OneOrMoreDimensions field
without dimensions becomes rank 2.
- Fields with ValueRank -2/-3 are published as scalar BaseDataType,
which is what is on the wire.
- **OptionSets:**
  - Implicit fields get the next free bit.
- `OptionSetValues` uses null for undefined bits instead of "Reserved",
and structure OptionSets publish all their bits (no 32/96-bit cap).
- Numeric OptionSets are limited to their base type's width, and UInt64
bit 63 works.
- **Schemas:**
- Structures with inline-matrix fields are left out of the `.bsd`
(5.2.5).
- In the BSD, Variant-encoded and non-structure subtyped fields are
described as `ua:Variant`.
- In the `.xsd`, matrix fields are typed `ua:Matrix` with
`Dimensions`/`Elements`, and `EncodingMask` is required.

### NodeSet / model input handling
- **Model selection:**
- The newest NodeSet of a model is chosen by `ModelVersion` (SemVer 2.0
precedence), then PublicationDate. The `Version` attribute, which Annex
F says is not for comparison, is only a tie-break.
- The order is total and does not depend on input order; referenced
assemblies use the same rule.
- **Default names:**
- Invalid default Name/Prefix values are repaired (`201301ISA95` becomes
`_201301ISA95`, `class` becomes `class_`).
  - Valid names are unchanged.
  - Sanitising no longer depends on the OS.
- **`ModelUri` metadata** that doesn't match the NodeSet raises a
warning instead of silently losing the model.
- **Input detection:**
- Only XML files whose root is `ModelDesign` or `UANodeSet` are treated
as models.
- A malformed NodeSet stays a NodeSet input, so it no longer breaks the
ModelDesign pass.
- **`IdentifierFile` paths:** they are normalized (`./`, `../`), and the
suffix match requires a folder boundary.
- **Dependency payloads** (`ModelDependencyV1`) carry field IsOptional,
AllowSubTypes, ArrayDimensions and the producer's namespace tables in
skippable trailers, so old and new readers stay compatible.

### Roslyn host, diagnostics, packaging
- **New diagnostics:**
- MODELGEN036: `[NodeManager]` target not supported (nested, generic,
file-local or global namespace).
- MODELGEN037: `[DataType]` target not supported (struct, generic,
abstract, file-local or global namespace).
- MODELGEN038: the definition of an encodeable base type can't be found.
- **New validator errors:**
- a structure with both optional and subtyped fields (OPC 10000-6 F.13);
  - multi-bit or duplicate OptionSet masks.
- **Diagnostic locations:** `[DataType]`/`[NodeManager]` diagnostics
point at real source locations again, so `#pragma` and `.editorconfig`
apply. MODELGEN010 is the exception.
- **Incremental caching:** pipeline values compare by value, so
unrelated edits no longer regenerate the whole model or all
`[DataType]`s.
- **`ModelSourceGeneratorIgnore`** on a ModelDesign input is honoured;
the design still resolves as a dependency.
- **Cancellation:** a cancelled generation run propagates
`OperationCanceledException` instead of reporting a MODELGEN003 error.
- **Stack package:** the `Stack` NuGet package now ships
`build/OPCFoundation.NetStandard.Opc.Ua.SourceGeneration.Stack.props`,
so `StackSourceGeneratorMode` and `StackSourceGeneratorExclude` reach
the compiler.

## Related Issues

Marc Schier 46fa7d364a Harden recovery, concurrency, and resource lifetimes across the OPC UA stack (#4516) 
# Description

Bound managed-session recovery, preserve Publish workers and recovery
ownership, and address the client, server, transport, and certificate
audit findings and subsequent concurrency review. Also reduce the memory
retained by exhaustive session-test diagnostics.

## Recovery and Publish ownership

- Add `ManagedSessionOptions.ChannelReconnectTimeout` through direct
construction, the fluent builder, and DI. The automatic duration is
`max(3 * KeepAliveInterval, revised SessionTimeout, OperationTimeout)`,
sampled at cycle start. Positive overrides are supported;
`Timeout.InfiniteTimeSpan` explicitly opts out. Raw sessions retain
their unlimited default.
- Add `CreateReconnectBudget(TimeProvider)` as a required
`IReconnectParticipant` member, as agreed in review. Custom participants
implement it and may return null for no participant-specific bound.
- Enforce the earliest participant/caller deadline through transport
reconnect, activation/recreation, and subscription restoration. Late
callers can shorten an active cycle but cannot extend it.
- Cancel and unwind recovery, fence late responses, and release channel
recovery ownership before the existing `Faulted` event hands control to
the outer reconnect/failover policy. Preserve session recreate admission
through final Publish cleanup and keepalive suppression until shared
recovery is complete.
- Treat participant budget creation/evaluation failures, including
exceptions at the exact deadline, as terminal shared-recovery failures.
Notify participants before exposing `Faulted`, preserve the original
diagnostic, and never silently replace a finite budget with unlimited
recovery.
- Keep caller-supplied replacement channels, managed bindings, wrapper
event subscriptions, and recovery-owner identities consistent across
success, failure, and cancellation. Reject replacement during active
recovery and fence retired callbacks so they cannot clear newer
ownership or suppress later keepalive recovery.
- Retain eligible Publish workers through temporary
subscription-identifier clearing without retaining workers for
never-created or removed subscriptions. Preserve cancellation,
acknowledgement rollback, and drain-before-replacement ordering.
- Coordinate automatic subscription updates with session recovery:
cancel admitted updates, keep them paused across a failed-restoration
handoff, and retry only after explicit restoration completes. This
prevents competing CreateSubscription requests and updates against a
retiring session, while preserving manual recreation, transfer fallback,
and pending option changes.
- Exercise the real ManagedSession, V2 subscription engine, and channel
ready gate with scripted transports and an injected clock. Cover
transfer fallback, deadline handoff, late completions, and resumed
notification delivery.

## Audit and review corrections

- Correct certificate/trust-list transactions, change-pump lifetimes,
validation, peer revalidation, and reset/resource ownership.
- Harden node admission, attribute/range/dimension validation,
monitored-item sampling and lifecycle transitions, event fanout, and
server shutdown. Run lifecycle readiness and compensation outside shared
monitored-item admission, with stale-completion ownership checks.
- Close synchronous node-manager admission before teardown and retain
resources until admitted service, lifecycle, and asynchronous method
work returns. Dispose the monitored-item manager outside both locks,
reject late calls before they can reach it, and forward asynchronous
disposal through the adapter so the master awaits the same completion.
Preserve reentrant shutdown initiation, cancellation/failure unwinding,
and shared cleanup-failure reporting.
- Bound WSS pending-request retention using connection-local wire
handles while preserving caller-visible request handles and translating
Cancel targets. Safely ignore retired replies and drain admitted
send/close users before resource disposal.
- Clarify that the shared `ClientBase` caller-handle sequence is
distinct from the non-wrapping WSS wire allocator. Existing
exhaustion/reopen, late-reply, and Cancel-translation regressions verify
the connection-local contract; no allocator behavior was changed by this
clarification.
- Preserve virtual-node validation and resolver service errors instead
of converting them to cached misses. A mismatched NodeId reports
`BadNodeIdInvalid`; callback type mismatches and resolver service errors
keep their exact status. Per-item boundaries preserve unaffected reads,
writes, history operations, method calls, browse paths, and
monitored-item creation/restoration, including permission-validation
paths. Caller cancellation still propagates; stored-item validation
failures are logged without aborting later restores.
- Correct client file/role/state-machine/streaming APIs, node-cache
behavior, redundancy/failover ownership, and session
configuration/identity handling.
- Cancel each owned peer-discovery scope before disposing it, including
when the bounded wait wins a cancellation-delivery race. Keep late
results out of the endpoint cache and preserve single-flight lookup
ownership.
- Keep materialized alias Browse results synchronized with the live
store by default, preserving explicit startup-only opt-out. Apply
HistoryUpdate service results per value while retaining explicit
all-or-nothing provider APIs.
- Update the directly related feature documentation and add focused
positive, negative, concurrency, and ownership regressions.

## Latest review-feedback corrections

- Fence stale failed lease observations with a successful-confirmation
generation distinct from the revocation epoch. Snapshot it before each
store read, including failed-CAS revalidation, so an old failure cannot
revoke or reschedule a newer lease while fresh ownership loss still
revokes leadership. Preserve independent overlapping acquisitions,
expiry, disposal, and late-success protections.
- Isolate attributable WSS response-decoding errors to their request,
including retired handles. Keep admitted socket sends connection-owned
so caller timeout/cancellation cannot abort sibling requests; shutdown
still cancels and drains those sends.
- Restart keepalive and classic Publish replenishment after successful
session reuse. Retire V2 worker demand after intentional
deletion/disable without confusing that state with temporary recovery
resets.
- Browse virtual directories lazily across continuation pages without
the 1,024-entry snapshot cap. Preserve active-page cancellation, bounded
metadata retention, pushback, and exactly-once asynchronous cursor
cleanup.
- Apply certificate/CRL staging in last-operation order, preflight
required issuer storage before writes, select actual policy-compatible
RSA keys for None endpoints, frame certificate chains independently of
signature OIDs, and preserve admitted validation results during
rejected-writer shutdown.
- Preserve base asynchronous disposal when a legacy override omits its
base call; avoid double derived disposal in the adapter. Let genuinely
admitted nested work finish while rejecting stale captured contexts and
returning null from closed lookup APIs.
- Re-park recovered monitored items if AddNodes rolls back. Give event
compensation a fresh finite deadline, and preserve healthy
Browse/Translate siblings at every reference/path boundary while
retaining starting-node errors and caller cancellation.
- Give final reconnect notifications a live, bounded shutdown-linked
lifetime. Synchronize child state before parent lifecycle handlers
outside the parent transition lock.
- Document the accepted existing policies: direct reverse connections
are single-use without a ReverseConnectManager, and multi-node stream
capacity is shared rather than reserved per node.

The expanded readiness controls also exposed a real generation-handoff
race: an old source could finish draining after activation was deferred
but before readiness tasks were collected, causing the wanted
replacement to be omitted from the wait set. A deterministic test gates
that exact interval; the fix keeps the replacement in the readiness
wait. The original race passed 200 repetitions after the fix. A separate
control now awaits both producer readiness and iterator entry under the
same original deadline, rather than treating those independent signals
as equivalent. Temporary logging and repetition are removed.

## CI integration contracts

The History and Server CI failures exposed integration tests that still
asserted the behavior intentionally changed by the audit fixes. A
Windows WoT negative test raced its caller deadline against upstream
retries. A subsequent Ubuntu Client failure exposed a real
automatic-update versus explicit-restoration race:

- History insertion collisions now verify exact per-value statuses and
all persisted timestamps/values, including preservation of the existing
conflicting entry. Explicit atomic-provider rollback controls remain.
- Alias materialization tests wait for actual publication and verify the
added node plus forward/inverse `AliasFor` references, instead of racing
a startup-only snapshot expectation. Explicit refresh opt-out controls
remain.
- The unavailable-upstream WoT test uses an explicit finite retry policy
through existing DI configuration, preserving its original four-minute
guard and requiring a mapped-value service error before caller
cancellation. Production retry defaults remain unchanged.
- The Client fix retains the exact one-create and late-response
assertions. Three deterministic real-subscription/real-manager cases
cover paused creation, disposal while paused, and cancellation of an
admitted create followed by explicit restoration and a pending option
update. Both composed restoration-deadline cases also prove automatic
updates stay blocked at the outer handoff and resume after restoration.
- The merged-head net48 correction prevents lost peer-resolver
cancellation and distinguishes the harness's delayed initial `Connected`
event from actual outer recovery completion. A deterministic timer-order
test covers both cooperative and cancellation-ignoring resolvers,
cancellation before return, rejection of late cached results, and a
fresh subsequent lookup.
- The remaining CodeQL alert was a false content flow through
`ArrayOf.Count` into an integer-only trust-list summary. Projecting the
same count through `Span.Length` keeps cardinality distinct from
serialized contents without allocating, dropping diagnostics,
suppressing the rule, or dismissing the alert. Five log-contract cases
cover null/empty/nonempty results and mixed chain-capable/fallback
listeners, asserting the exact count, message, and structured
properties.
- Classic transfer acknowledges messages selected for asynchronous
Republish only after their responses arrive. The existing locked
replay-selection decision returns the immediate-acknowledgement subset
to Session, preserving the public transfer API, advertised availability,
and immediate acknowledgement of older gapped messages not selected for
replay. A callback changing `RepublishAfterTransfer` cannot change the
already-selected acknowledgement ownership.
- Transfer integration tests explicitly control acknowledged versus
retained origin messages. Exact assertions distinguish retained replay
from requested fresh initial values by sequence number, client handles,
values, status, and source timestamp. Atomic counters, observed
delivery/keepalive progress, and failure-safe session/file cleanup
replace timing assumptions and racy resets.
- Server lifecycle tests verify the documented independent five-second
compensation deadline rather than requiring a non-cancellable token.
They cancel the actual request, prove compensation and unrelated
monitored-item creation still proceed one tick before the deadline,
preserve the original failure and ownership assertions, and verify the
completed deadline is retired.
- Synchronous and asynchronous directory-browser tests require the exact
provider exception instead of an empty-directory success, then verify
the failed cursor is not enumerated again. These correct expectations
left behind by the intentional, documented provider-error propagation
change; production behavior is unchanged.

No tests were disabled, assertions loosened, coverage thresholds
lowered, or CI checks made optional. Existing platform exclusions and
Explicit debug variants remain.

## Validation

**Lease-election review correction
(`a13afa641182c70983e16bbcfebf507e666a45a5`):**

The correction is based on the existing upstream merge
`43079e2b851fe338a4082066f8d14abfdafb6e32`. Three deterministic
stale-verdict
cases fail on the original source and pass with separate confirmation
fencing.
Six new cases cover the initial foreign-owner verdict, failed-CAS
revalidation
in both invocation orders, and fresh ownership loss through both read
paths,
including revalidation begun after another successful confirmation.

| Target and configuration | Passed | Failed | Skipped |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| net10.0 Debug | 120 | 0 | 0 |
| net48 Debug | 120 | 0 | 0 |

The selection is the full `Opc.Ua.Core.Tests.Redundancy` namespace,
including
all 38 `SharedStoreLeaseElectionTests` cases and the existing expiry,
clock
rollback, disposal, and overlapping-success regressions. New witnesses
are
`StaleForeignLeaseReadDoesNotRevokeNewerAcquisitionAsync`,
`StaleFailedRevalidationDoesNotRevokeNewerAcquisitionAsync`, and
`FreshForeignLeaseObservationRevokesLeadershipAsync`. They assert
resulting
leadership, exact transitions, independent progress, and the unchanged
expiry
boundary. Retaining the initial generation for the fallback read
independently
makes the fresh-loss-after-confirmation control fail; that mutation was
removed
before the final rebuilt runs.

The successful scoped command is
`dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Core.Tests\Opc.Ua.Core.Tests.csproj -c Debug
--no-restore --filter
"FullyQualifiedName~Opc.Ua.Core.Tests.Redundancy"`,
with `CustomTestTarget` and `-f` matching each row and that framework's
assets
restored. Both changed C# files pass formatting and analyzers through
informational severity on both frameworks. These are scoped results, not
a
full-solution test or measured coverage-delta claim. CI monitoring is
paused
for this feedback-only operation; no current-head CI success is claimed.

**Latest CI contract correction
(`1cd1f2047bb5b50c9bf300b1ff710b0b2e935a29`):**

All four failing Server shard 23 jobs in
[run
36120946740](https://github.com/OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard/actions/runs/36120946740)
reported the same six cases. Two local replays reproduced all six
failures.
The source changes and documentation from `cd43b831a` establish both
intentional
contracts: independent bounded event compensation and surfaced provider
errors.
Only the two test files are corrected; production code and CI policy are
unchanged.

| Target and configuration | Passed | Failed | Skipped |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| net48 Debug | 113 | 0 | 0 |
| net10.0 Release, CI Coverlet settings | 113 | 0 | 0 |

The selection contains `MonitoredItemManagerLifecycleTests`,
`DirectoryObjectStateTests`, `DirectoryBrowserBoundedEnumerationTests`,
and

`EventCompensationReadinessHasFiniteDeadlineWithInfiniteSourceTimeoutAsync`.
Both changed files pass formatting and analyzers through informational
severity
on both frameworks. Independent mutations restoring a non-cancellable
compensation token and swallowing provider errors fail all four
lifecycle
cases and both browser cases, respectively. Both mutations were removed
before
the final passing runs and commit.

The scoped command is `dotnet test
tests\Opc.Ua.Server.Tests\Opc.Ua.Server.Tests.csproj`
with `CustomTestTarget` and `-f` set to the selected framework,
`--no-restore`, and
`--filter
"FullyQualifiedName~MonitoredItemManagerLifecycleTests|FullyQualifiedName~DirectoryObjectStateTests|FullyQualifiedName~DirectoryBrowserBoundedEnumerationTests|FullyQualifiedName~EventCompensationReadinessHasFiniteDeadlineWithInfiniteSourceTimeoutAsync"`.
The modern run additionally uses `-c Release /p:CollectCoverage=true
--collect "XPlat Code Coverage" --settings
tests\coverlet.runsettings.xml`.
These are scoped results, not a full-solution test or measured
coverage-delta claim.
Hosted checks for that commit were pending at publication. The fail-fast
CI
watch was stopped when the requested operation switched to review
feedback;
no current-head CI success is claimed.

**Earlier master merge (`8b15ea6ef9fc2214ac8ec886f373bb3846dd6d6f`, base
`b4136d8e9bab0df680f41d9ef985f519160534b1`):**

The `TcpListenerChannel` conflict preserves both lifetime
responsibilities:
disposal clears the retained peer-certificate chain and unregisters the
quota-scoped message-assembly scheduler. Both fields and all upstream
deadline
handling remain intact. The only additional manual source adjustment
adds the
parentheses required by the existing analyzer around the session-count
fallback.

Master advanced during validation. The initial transport merge
`80303c434ce813cf75aa7fe54a6a32fe2aeafc30` was retained, and the newer
base was
merged normally in `8b15ea6ef9fc2214ac8ec886f373bb3846dd6d6f`, without
rewriting
history. The additional recovery, fluent-pipeline, and test-framework
overlaps
were inspected; the branch's cancellation, validation-error, and
acknowledgement
ownership fixes remain alongside the upstream changes.

Full `UA.slnx` builds passed on net10.0 and net48 with **0 warnings and
0 errors**.
The final scoped tests rebuilt against the committed tree
`2074f8efcb61d8d9c6106e7d6f76ee941940e358`:

| Target | Passed | Failed | Skipped |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| net10.0 | 2,653 | 0 | 0 |
| net48 | 2,529 | 0 | 7 |

The net48 skips are existing platform exclusions: six RSA_DH_AesGcm
nonce cases
and one ClientWebSocket certificate-validation case requiring .NET 7 or
later.
The selection covers transport cleanup, reassembly
budgets/deadlines/admission,
peer-chain ownership, server session binding, fluent lifecycles and
source
generation, reconnect and keepalive, transfer acknowledgements, Publish
queues,
and JSON encoding. Modern-.NET WSS transport and real-server integration
cases
also pass. The resolved file passed solution-relative formatting and
analyzer
verification through informational severity on both frameworks.

These are scoped test results, not unfiltered full-suite or
measured-coverage
claims. Hosted CI was not monitored or repaired as part of this
merge-only
operation.

Selected local results below are overlapping validation runs, not
distinct-test totals.

**Earlier review-feedback batch
(`cd43b831a8f11de3f7d65c3681712a61e3c669a5`):**
The final net10.0 scoped selection passed **471 tests, with no failures
or skips**.
The final net48 solution-root selection passed **439 tests, with no
failures and
one unchanged platform skip**
(`ValidateServerCertificateFallsBackToTlsPolicyErrors`,
which requires newer ClientWebSocket certificate-validation support).
Both full nonincremental solution builds completed with **0 warnings and
0 errors**,
and all **40 changed C# files** passed informational-level
formatting/analyzer
verification. Both frameworks validated the identical final tracked
diff.
The focused matrix covers every one of the 20 current review threads,
including
real mid-frame WSS cancellation, stale admission contexts, directory
continuation
ownership, multi-element Browse/Translate failures, and the readiness
drain race.
The net10.0 solution-root test command has a separate pre-existing
runner conflict:
three unrelated AOT projects reject the VSTest target under
Microsoft.Testing.Platform
2.4.0 and SDK 10. Per-project net10.0 results are recorded separately;
no runner
migration, test exclusion, assertion relaxation, or CI-policy change is
included.
These are bounded selections, not unfiltered full-suite or measured
coverage claims.
At publication of `cd43b831a`, hosted CI was not green: the
`OPCFoundation.UA-.NETStandard` check reported `ACTION_REQUIRED`,
AppVeyor reported
`FAILURE`, and the two signed-build jobs were in progress. No CI jobs
were rerun,
cancelled, approved, or repaired as part of that feedback-only
operation.

**Classic transfer correction
(`f425376fca045794122e19aaf9cafebc4a717d91`):**
The preceding head's
[macOS net10.0 shard
25/30](https://github.com/OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard/actions/runs/35980326299/job/107570512458)
failed
`TransferSubscriptionTest(DisconnectedRepublish).TransferSubscriptionAsync(True,False)`
at the static-node count assertion: expected 10, received 20. The trace
contains a successful,
explicitly requested republish of retained sequence 1 and a fresh
initial-value batch at sequence 3,
not duplicate dispatch of one response.

Controlled lost origin acknowledgements reproduced that incorrect test
expectation on both the
preceding PR head and exact master base
`a2539cb53dd1666cef856f33812d7a8830d68909`.
The maintainer explicitly authorized correcting this existing issue in
the PR. Retained replay
and requested initial values are independent, as specified by
[OPC UA Part 4,
TransferSubscriptions](https://reference.opcfoundation.org/specs/OPC-10000-4/5.14.7).
The reason that the original hosted run retained its particular origin
message remains unproved.

The expanded full-suite run then exposed a **real production race**, not
just a count assertion:
Session queued acknowledgements for all transferred available messages
before the asynchronous
Republish responses arrived. Publish could delete those messages first,
causing
`BadMessageNotAvailable`. A gated real-Session/classic-engine regression
failed both replay-enabled
cases on the original implementation while both no-replay controls
passed. The ownership fix
passes all 24 combinations of empty/consecutive/unsorted-gapped queues,
replay preference,
sequential delivery, and a reentrant preference change.

All 40 normal real-server transfer cases pass on both frameworks.
Independent mutations
suppressing actual replay and duplicating observed sequence records each
fail the intended
assertion; both mutations were removed. The full classic suite passes on
both frameworks.
Hosted CI was pending when that correction was published; the earlier
failed hosted job was not
rerun for a lucky pass.

**Local net48 caveat:** the full Client run timed out in the
pre-existing fake-clock test
`ReconnectAsyncSwapsFaultedLeaseEntryAsync`, which does not exercise
subscription transfer.
Its unchanged isolated replay passed, but that does not resolve the
full-suite timeout.
No unrelated code or assertions were changed, and a clean full Client
net48 run is not claimed.

- Full solution builds passed on net10.0 and net48 during the audit
work. The subsequent full non-incremental net10.0 build also completed
with zero warnings/errors.
- Modified source/test formatting and analyzer checks passed through
informational severity.
- Original composed recovery regressions passed repeated runs on both
frameworks. Independent mutations removing Publish cancellation,
bypassing the recreate drain call, or ignoring ready-gate cancellation
each failed the intended assertion; all mutations were restored before
passing runs.
- The latest recovery correction passed 100 executions of each original
restoration-deadline scenario with unchanged assertions. Restoring
premature update admission independently made both strengthened handoff
cases fail; the correct retention behavior was restored afterward.
- Startup-event and cancellation-delivery timing probes reproduced the
subsequent net48 failures, then passed 100 executions of each of the
three scenarios with the fixes. All timing probes and repetition were
removed. The permanent timeout-order regression also went RED on the
original cancellation cleanup without sleeps or scheduling
amplification.
- Final post-format recovery/subscription/engine checks passed all 151
selected cases on net10.0. The first local full net48 attempt aborted in
`clr.dll` with native access violation `0xc0000005`; an
unchanged-assembly full diagnostic rerun passed as recorded above. That
native host crash has not been attributed or claimed fixed.
- A minimal replay with the same CodeQL CLI and query-pack versions
reproduced the custom-count alert and confirmed that the standard
span-length projection is clean while direct sensitive-value and
raw-identifier logging controls remain flagged. The source was already
logging only a count; no identifier or certificate disclosure was
established at the reported location.
- The virtual-node feedback regressions first reproduced five
error-preservation/cache failures; expanded service-dispatch cases
exposed two additional whole-batch failures before the
operation-boundary fixes. The final selections pass on both frameworks.
Genuine misses remain cached, successful results remain reusable, failed
validation allows same-cache retry, and request cancellation still stops
the batch.
- Three deterministic synchronous-manager disposal regressions
reproduced early resource release and lifecycle calls reaching a manager
during disposal. The fix passes direct and adapted calls, a
sampling-worker join after the last operation exits, reentrant shutdown,
cancellation and failure paths, repeated disposal, and exact rejection
across 39 service/lifecycle entry points both during drain and after
cleanup. The original outside-node-lock disposal regression remains and
now requires the worker to observe closed admission.
- Prior-head CI on `c985f8bded77a60449d9cd381c8a004d8590ccf6` completed
with **168 passing checks, one expected release-package-publication
skip, and no failures or pending checks**. All test shards, signed
builds, container builds, the coverage check, and the CodeQL PR check
passed. Hosted CodeQL analysis `1829262912` completed successfully and
marks count-flow alert 385 fixed. This is evidence for that head, not a
claim that subsequent review follow-ups have completed hosted CI.

### Session-test diagnostic memory

Complete browse listings are streamed to unique NUnit attachments rather
than retained in inline NUnit/VSTest output. Detached regression-test
results are cleaned up without deleting runner-collected attachments.

- Two covered session-suite runs each completed with 782 passed and 379
existing skips. Peak working set fell from 4.86 GiB to 2.44-2.78 GiB.
- TRX output shrank from 303.1 MiB to approximately 40.7 MiB, retaining
all 46 complete browse attachments.
- Seven output regressions cover exact content, empty/single/large
listings, disabled/enabled output, bounded inline summaries, and unique
filenames.

The separate Azure build-18452 VM deprovisioning cause remains unproved
without provider logs. The memory measurements do not establish its
cause.

Unfiltered local `UA.slnx` tests, including the long stress/soak suites,
have not been run on both frameworks. A local coverage delta was not
collected; builds and focused tests are not substitutes for those
claims.

Marc Schier 138086863b Fix audit findings and review regressions across the OPC UA stack (#4503) 
## Scope

Audit fixes and review follow-ups across the OPC UA Core, Client,
Server, transport, and redundancy components. This includes implemented
Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 work; it does not claim that every item in
the 244-finding audit backlog is complete.

The review batch fixes mandatory full-key record protection and owned
plaintext buffers; transactional pending-certificate claims;
shared-channel nonce and certificate ownership; discovery and
token-policy validation; reconnect/callback ordering without changing
unbounded buffering defaults; server permissions, filters,
monitored-item lifetime, and alarm topology; historian paging,
retention, and annotations; atomic user/password metadata; and canonical
file identities with bounded alias and role refresh workers.

## Review-batch verification at `ab686ccae`

The following results come from fresh test builds using `dotnet test`,
`--no-restore`, `-m:1`, and an explicit `CustomTestTarget`. They replace
the earlier description's library-build/`--no-build` totals, which did
not establish the state of the merged test sources.

| Scope | Target | Passed | Skipped |
|---|---|---:|---:|
| Core review regressions | net10.0 | 827 | 0 |
| Client and lifecycle regressions | net10.0 | 630 | 0 |
| Server review regressions | net10.0 | 1970 | 0 |
| Redundancy Server / Client / PubSub | net10.0 | 276 / 10 / 11 | 0 |
| Sessions / file-and-alias / streaming / HTTPS-WSS integration |
net10.0 | 8 / 21 / 30 / 20 | 0 |
| Core review regressions | net48 | 786 | 39 |
| Client recovery and policy regressions | net48 | 54 | 0 |
| Server ownership, aliases, queues, and user-state regressions | net48
| 137 | 0 |

Every listed run exited successfully. The 39 net48 skips are existing
platform/capability cases. New key-agreement tests assert
unavailable-policy behavior on unsupported targets rather than adding
skips or pretending those targets performed an unsupported handshake.
Additional exact node/permission/filter/alarm checks passed 13 Core and
46 Server cases.

The PR-scoped formatter verification covers 26 projects and 389
non-generated C# files. A Roslyn syntax audit covers 53 changed
interfaces and 263 members, with no missing
parameter/type-parameter/return contracts and a 120-column limit for
their declarations and documentation. No full-solution,
all-target-framework, or NativeAOT matrix is claimed from these local
runs; the new CI run must establish its own result.

## CI follow-up at `e1bc3ac3b`

The follow-up fixes the failures reported by Azure build 18400. TLS
certificates retain configured DNS names, including mixed-case URI
schemes, without relaxing hostname validation. Reverse-WSS fixtures use
the DNS identity in the client certificate. Reconnect completion is
published only after cycle cleanup, so a subsequent reconnect cannot
join an old completed cycle and retain old certificates.

Certificate-alarm roots now support event subscriptions. The pump sample
has one continuous notifier path, with no duplicate shortcut. Historian
and aggregate fixtures share the provider's retention clock. Alarm
collection lets the server expire idle Publish requests rather than
canceling only the client wait. The corrected server, WoT, and
managed-session fixtures exercise valid requests and initialized
lifecycle contracts. Downlevel crypto tests preserve real credential and
key-ownership assertions without enabling unsupported raw-ECDH policies
or adding skips.

Fresh local evidence after integration includes:

| Scope | Target | Passed | Skipped |
|---|---|---:|---:|
| Client lifecycle / channel ownership / builder fixtures | net10.0 and
net48, each | 96 / 103 / 123 | 0 |
| Combined server lifecycle, events, aggregates, crypto, and contracts |
net48 | 358 | 0 |
| Full lifecycle plus certificate-alarm and aggregate fixtures | net10.0
| 116 | 0 |
| Final server-contract and history-routing delta | net10.0 and net48,
each | 84 | 0 |
| Subscription / XRegistry / WoT event regressions | net10.0 | 7 / 2 / 3
| 0 |
| Full Sessions project | net10.0 | 780 | 379 |
| Full ComplexTypes project / downlevel resolver fixtures | net10.0 /
net48 | 2854 / 15 | 0 |
| Full WoT project / downlevel structured-write fixtures | net10.0 /
net48 | 1496 / 27 | 0 |
| TLS domain-name regressions | net10.0 and net48, each | 21 | 0 |

All listed runs exited 0. The Sessions skips come from existing endpoint
and policy capability guards; they are not counted as passes. No skip
was added. Worker validation also covered full DI (426 passes), full
History (540 passes, 21 existing skips), 38 exact downlevel
event/history failures, and 60 repeated certificate-rotation race cases.
The final crypto fixtures passed 73 cases on each target with the
unchanged leak detector; a temporary premature-disposal mutation made
all three borrower tests fail and was then removed.

All 29 C# files in this follow-up pass included-file formatting at info
severity across 12 projects. The complete PR interface audit now covers
54 interfaces and 271 members with zero missing contracts or line-width
findings. No full-solution or NativeAOT matrix is claimed. New-head CI
has started and remains authoritative for the remote result.

## Test-result gate follow-up at `4b6e1203a`

Azure build 18401 reported the net48 Client job as successful despite a
test-host crash after only 264 passing tests. Its old evaluator counted
per-test failures but ignored the failed run verdict. This was a partial
run, not a benign exit after the suite had completed.

The shared result evaluator now rejects aborted, errored, incomplete,
malformed, or inconsistent TRX reports. Each file must describe a
completed run, so a passing file cannot mask another file's failure. It
retains support for completed runs followed by a benign nonzero host
exit, existing skipped-result conventions, and no-TRX MTP jobs.

All 78 regression cases pass after integration using Windows PowerShell
5.1. Real completed Sessions and Client reports also pass. The
process-test fixture follows the existing NET10_0-only tools-test
pattern; its net48 build is not counted as a test run. Formatting passes
for the added test file.

The Client host crash itself has not reproduced locally. The isolated
fixture passed 59 tests, and two fresh full fast-CI selections each
completed with 2,392 passes and three existing skips, including a run
with crash collection enabled. The CI merge tree is identical to the
tested source tree. No speculative runtime change was made, and the
original partial CI run is not claimed as a full-suite pass. Azure build
18402 has now completed the full net48 Client run: 2,392 passed, three
existing console skips, and a successful test-host exit. The corrected
evaluator independently validated outcome=Completed. Across the matrix,
119 test-project jobs succeeded; Sessions net10.0 was canceled when the
remote provider deprovisioned its runner, so the overall Azure pipeline
was canceled. That cancellation is not claimed as a code failure or a
successful run. CodeQL and three Docker image jobs were still running at
the latest check. The migration discovery failure remains separate.

## Documentation follow-up at `57ed02bea`

The environment blocker has been removed by the maintainer. The three
bundled migration references now exactly match the canonical documents
after deterministic link rewriting; all 15 bundled documents pass
`validate-migration-plugin.ps1`. The canonical migration prose was not
rewritten. `FileSystemClient.md` now documents that extended Windows
roots preserve literal trailing-dot names, completing the filesystem
review follow-up.

The filesystem thread has been replied to and resolved after
publication. The review pass now has 108 of 110 threads resolved. The
two explanation-only threads remain open as requested; no unfinished
change request is being represented as resolved.

## Cross-platform follow-up at `0d9d936a8`

With migration discovery restored, the Linux and macOS test matrix
exposed two stale durable-subscription expectations. The expected value
83,442 encoded the old 32-bit overflow when converting 3,600 hours to
milliseconds. The existing overflow-safe server correctly returns
14,400,000 lifetime intervals at a 900 ms publishing interval. Only
those two expected constants changed; production behavior,
negotiated-hour checks, and all other assertions remain unchanged.

The exact local lifetime selection reproduced both failures before the
correction. The full durable suite now passes 36 cases with 11 existing
skips on each of net10.0 and net48. All four lifetime cases executed and
passed on both targets, and included-file info-severity formatting
passes.

## Session shutdown follow-up at `8daf7f091`

A late net48 Sessions failure exposed a shutdown race. Canceling an
in-flight keepalive read can produce a transport
`ServiceResultException`. The retiring worker treated its own
cancellation as proof that the peer was unavailable, so `CloseAsync` or
`DisposeAsync` could skip the server-side `CloseSession` request. The
worker now ignores that service error only when its own token is
canceled; genuine peer errors still update liveness.

The full integration fixture reproduced the original error-code
mismatch. Four deterministic mock-transport cases then produced three
failures and one passing genuine-error control before the fix. They
verify successful close, returned server error, asynchronous disposal,
and unchanged behavior for a real keepalive failure. Fresh related runs
pass 75 client and 101 integration cases on each of net48 and net10.0,
with no skips. Ten repetitions of the formerly flaky full net48 fixture
pass all 1,010 cases. All three changed files pass info-severity
formatting, and temporary diagnostic instrumentation was removed.

## Atomic listener snapshot follow-up at `82dc22b5d`

Ubuntu Core CI exposed an unsafe formatter rewrite in TCP listener
disposal: `ConcurrentDictionary.ToArray()` had become a collection
spread. A concurrent channel removal between the spread's count and copy
operations could leave a default entry, causing a null dereference
during disposal. The listener now uses the dictionary's atomic `Values`
snapshot and disposes those channels outside the listener lock.

Deterministic regressions close zero, one, or all channels at the copy
boundary. Before the fix, the one/all-removal cases reproduced the exact
null dereference; the unchanged-count control passed. All 23
admission/listener cases now pass on net10.0 and net48, and the full
fast Core net10.0 suite passes 5,267 cases with 88 existing platform
skips. Both changed files pass info-severity formatting. A bounded audit
of the formatter's other snapshot rewrites found no further verified
unsafe concurrent-registry copies.

## Shutdown-test observation follow-up at `58403ee8b`

The net48 shutdown-order test raced its own observation: it read
`m_publishWorkerTask` after starting shutdown, which can legitimately
drain the worker and clear that field immediately. The test now captures
the worker before shutdown starts and confirms it is initially running.
It still requires the worker to finish while shutdown remains blocked by
the held manager semaphore. Production behavior is unchanged.

A temporary scheduling perturbation reproduced the exact null-field
failure. The corrected capture passed 100 perturbed iterations; both the
temporary repeat and yield were then removed. The final 126
subscription/lifecycle cases pass on each of net48 and net10.0, and
formatting passes. A complete local Sessions net10.0 run also passed 780
cases with 379 existing capability skips in 7m20s after the earlier
keepalive correction.

## Retirement and alias-startup follow-up at `1a048ff39`

The shadow-generation test now observes its documented asynchronous
cleanup through the existing bounded helper. Removing the replacement
does not join a background drain that already claimed the retired
generation. The test still checks live-registration removal immediately
and requires the old node to disappear; no timeout or production
lifecycle behavior changed. All 81 lifecycle cases pass on each of
net10.0 and net48.

Initial alias-node materialization now retries one timed-out, read-only
snapshot query before creating nodes for that root. The retry is logged
through source-generated logging. Each query retains the original shared
100 ms deadline; repeated timeouts, other errors, and cancellation still
abort startup. Client searches and live refresh do not gain this
immediate retry. Fault-injection tests cover success after one timeout,
a persistent timeout, a different store failure, and cancellation. All
187 related alias/hosting cases and the original certificate-rotation
integration case pass on each target; the positive test records exactly
one retry warning. The alias documentation now accurately describes the
shared request budget.

All changed C# files pass formatter checks, and the complete
54-interface/271-member documentation audit passes. Fresh CI is running
on `1a048ff39`; the previous completed matrix exposed only the two
failures corrected in this batch and their dependent summaries.

## Sample endpoint allocation follow-up at `d08a94925`

The strong-cluster test harness allocated OPC UA and Raft endpoints in
separate released-port batches. Uniqueness was enforced only inside each
batch, so the same OS-assigned port could appear in both protocol
groups. The harness now requests one distinct batch for both groups and
splits it before launching any replicas.

Deterministic one- and three-replica allocation cases reproduced
overlapping groups with the old plan and pass with the corrected plan.
The complete 17-case short-haul sample suite passes without skips; all
failover, historian-continuation, and service assertions remain
unchanged. Both changed files pass info-severity formatting. This
prevents intra-cluster self-collisions but does not claim to reserve
released ports against unrelated external processes.

## Code-review follow-up at `085fd9636`

A review of the complete branch diff found five defects this PR
introduced. All are now fixed, each in its own commit.

`RelatedTo`'s recursive-to-iterative rewrite defaulted the optional
`includeTypeDefinitionSubtypes` and `includeReferenceTypeSubtypes`
operands to `false`. Part 4 §7.7.4 specifies both default to `true`, so
a filter that omitted them silently stopped matching subtypes.
Dynamically created key-credential nodes derived their namespace from
the containing folder, which is the standard `i=18155` node in namespace
0 — the namespace reserved for the OPC UA standard address space; they
now resolve the server-owned namespace and fail with `BadInternalError`
rather than guessing index 1. The retained audience-less
`CreateTokenData` overload produced tokens that verification always
rejects, so it is now `[Obsolete]` and throws instead. A failed
reference to a remote parent left the new node registered with a
one-sided inverse reference, and is now rolled back. An existing `.pfx`
is restricted before it is rewritten, rather than after its new key
bytes are on disk.

One further reported finding was rejected after investigation.
`JwksIssuerKeyResolver` deliberately does not dispose retired key
snapshots: `RetiredKeysAreCollectibleWhileResolverRemainsAliveAsync`
proves the resolver retains no retired snapshot, and
`ReturnedKeysSurviveRepeatedRefreshAndResolverDisposalAsync` requires
already-returned keys to keep verifying across refreshes and resolver
disposal. Adding disposal would have broken that tested contract, so the
exploratory change was reverted.

Validated on net10.0 and net48: 256 Core and 633 Server cases pass, with
one pre-existing net48 skip. The build reports zero compiler and
analyzer diagnostics, all eight included-file info-format checks pass,
the contract audit covers 58 interfaces and 310 members with no
findings, and the 15 bundled migration documents validate. All 122
review threads are resolved; the key-credential namespace thread was
reopened to retract an earlier incorrect answer and then resolved
against the real fix.
## Review-body follow-up at `da0d59cfb`

The re-review at `8daf7f091 + 82dc22b5d` listed four items in its
summary that had no inline thread of their own, so they had not been
picked up. All four are now fixed.

Both event-dispatch permission gates had been tightened from not-Bad to
`IsGood`, which silently dropped events whose permission verdict is
Uncertain; the data-change path in the same file still treated Uncertain
as deliverable, so the two had diverged. `EventSourceRegistry` only
cleared `ConsecutiveFailures` when a source was deactivated, so a source
that had backed off to the 30-second cap kept that delay for the rest of
the process even after starting successfully.
`UserNameIdentityTokenHandler` built a temporary issuer chain whose
`Add` calls take independent certificate references, and never released
them.

The fourth was the receiver-side sequence rollover, which the reviewer
had correctly re-flagged as still open despite its thread being
resolved. `m_sequenceRollover` was set permanently, so the second legal
wrap on a long-lived channel was rejected and faulted the channel along
with the transport-reconnect OPN. OPC 10000-6 does not cap a
SecureChannel at one wrap. The flag is now cleared once an accepted
number has traversed the normal range, which keeps rejecting a replayed
low number that never left the rollover window.

Validated on net10.0 and net48: 636 / 593 Core cases and 135 / 134
Server cases pass, including the new
`UaSCBinaryChannelSequenceRolloverTests` and the Uncertain-permission
delivery cases. The build reports zero compiler and analyzer diagnostics
and the changed files pass included-file info-format checks on both
targets.

The previous head `085fd9636` was fully green: 279 checks passed and
Azure build 18414 succeeded with 137 of 137 jobs, after the platform
automatically retried a job whose NuGet tool download had hit a
transient TLS error.
## Reported issues #4508 and #4509 at `6ad1ecf16`

**#4508 (V2 subscription recreate deadlocks against a faulted transport)
was not yet fixed and is now closed by `bac260a06`.** Both drain sites
the report identifies were still unbounded. A publish worker that
started its request before the quiesce parks inside the service call on
the channel ready gate while holding an active publish request; the
recreate that would make the channel ready is the very operation
awaiting the drain, so the wait never ends.

The drain now cancels in-flight attempts through a per-attempt token
linked to the worker token. An aborted worker rolls its acknowledgements
back, releases the request and returns to the paused park instead of
terminating, so it resumes when the caller leaves the quiesce. Publish
ingress stays quiesced for the caller's operation, so
`DropPendingForSubscription` keeps the guarantee the report asks to
preserve and no blind timeout is added. The new regression parks a
worker on a cancellable gate that never completes on its own: it
reproduces the hang for the full 30-second budget before the change and
passes after it.

**#4509 (identity provider fails the initial connect) was already fixed
for its primary symptom.** `HandleConnectAsync` materializes the
provider's identity through `CreateIdentitySelectionContext` before the
first `CreateAsync`, so Anonymous is no longer substituted against a
UserName-only endpoint. `6ad1ecf16` adds the two remaining details from
the report: the enabled-policy set now includes the negotiated channel
policy, so a client cannot reject the policy it already accepted as
`NotEnabledByClient`; and when discovery has not populated the
endpoint's token policies the connect keeps the configured identity so
the attempt fails at the transport layer for the reconnect policy to
retry, instead of failing at the identity layer.

Validated on net10.0 and net48: 477 / 473 client session and
subscription cases pass, the build is free of compiler and analyzer
diagnostics, and the changed files pass included-file info-format checks
on both targets. The full `Opc.Ua.Sessions.Tests` suite also passes
locally on net10.0 with 782 passed and 379 pre-existing capability
skips.

GitHub checks are green on this head: Build and Test .NET 10.0, Docker
Sample Images CI, and NuGet Publish all succeeded. Azure build 18417
completed 134 of its 135 jobs successfully; its net10.0 Sessions job was
cancelled by the hosted-agent provider ("Received request to
deprovision"), the same infrastructure flake that hit build 18409
earlier on a head predating these changes. That job is not claimed as
passing, and the local full-suite run above covers the same project. The
previous head `da0d59cfb` completed Azure build 18415 with every job
succeeded.
## Review follow-up at `a08f0c12b`

Eleven new review threads arrived, nearly all documentation. Before
acting on each "this is new in 2.0" remark I checked the API against
`master378` rather than assuming, because a genuine 1.5 API still needs
its migration entry.

`ManagedSession`'s server-redundancy refresh had two hard-coded
two-second bounds. The new `ServerRedundancyOptions` exposes
`RefreshTimeout` for the metadata read and `PeerDiscoveryTimeout` for
each peer lookup, defaults both to the previous two seconds, validates
that a bound is positive or `Timeout.InfiniteTimeSpan`, and flows
through `ManagedSessionOptions`, `ManagedSession.CreateAsync`, the
fluent builder, and `DefaultServerRedundancyHandler`.

`AsyncCustomNodeManager` and `KeyCredentialBridgeAuthenticator` are both
absent from `master378`, so their obsolete members had no compatibility
constraint and are removed rather than carried:
`AsyncCustomNodeManager.ReadInitialValue`, the audience-less
`CreateTokenData` that only threw, and the audience-less `CreateProof`
that produced a proof no server accepts.
`CustomNodeManager2.ReadInitialValue` and the `MonitoredNode2` migration
section are genuine 1.5 APIs and are untouched.

The documentation now states master's behaviour instead of the delta
from 1.5.378, with each moved item already covered under
`docs/migrate/2.0.x/`. `IHistorianAnnotationProvider` is described by
its annotation-time key rather than as "legacy" — it is new in 2.0, so
the label implied a compatibility constraint that does not exist. The
KeyCredential bridge payload's `"version"` field is explained as a
vendor-extension format version with no OPC UA counterpart, and its
version-1 upgrade narrative is gone. `CertificateManager.md`'s migration
walkthrough is replaced by the resolver API it targets.
`NodeManagers.md`, `Sessions.md`, `AsyncServerSupport.md`,
`Certificates.md`, and `Profiles.md` no longer announce features
relative to 1.5. `Benchmarks.md`, `WhatsNewIn2.0.md`,
`DeveloperGuide.md`, and `docs/migrate/` keep their 1.5.378 references,
which are their subject.

CI then exposed a defect this batch introduced: five fixtures resolve
`ManagedSession`'s private constructor by its exact positional parameter
types, so the added parameter compiled cleanly but made `GetConstructor`
return `null` at run time. `7df1d5c40` updates every site;
`Redundancy.Client` passes 126 of 126 and the affected client fixtures
112 of 112.

The BouncyCastle question is answered and tracked in #4510:
`Opc.Ua.Core` already project-references `Opc.Ua.Security.Certificates`,
which already carries the conditional BouncyCastle reference, so the
raw-ECDH polyfill belongs there rather than as a new Core dependency.
The `IUserDatabase` metadata question is addressed to another maintainer
and is deliberately left open.

## Reported issue #4509 follow-up at `5d4d13d63`

The reporter verified `6ad1ecf16` and found one case still failing,
correctly. The empty-token-policies branch kept the configured identity
so a server that is down surfaces a transport failure rather than an
identity error. A provider-only configuration has no configured
identity, so it kept `null`: `OpenCoreAsync` turned that into Anonymous
and `OpenValidateIdentity` rejected it with `BadIdentityTokenInvalid`,
silently ignoring the configured provider.

The branch now requires a configured identity to defer to. Without one
the provider is consulted, so its own `BadIdentityTokenRejected` names
the offered and rejected policy set instead. Two regression tests cover
both configurations; the first fails against the previous behaviour by
reaching the session factory with a `null` identity, which is the exact
step that produced the reported error. That branch had shipped without a
test, which is why the case was missed.

## Review and CI status at `5d4d13d63`

**All actionable review threads are resolved: 132 of 133.** The single
open thread is a question the reviewer addressed to another maintainer
about moving user metadata into `IUserDatabase`; it is left open for
them rather than resolved silently. Every resolved thread carries a
reply naming its fix commit.

**Latest-head CI is green on `5d4d13d63`: 279 checks passed, zero
failed, zero pending**, with one conditional signed-package publishing
job skipped. Local validation for this batch: the full
`Opc.Ua.Client.Tests` suite passes 2,430 of 2,430 on net10.0,
`Opc.Ua.Redundancy.Client.Tests` 126 of 126, and `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests`
590 of 590 for the affected selections. Both net10.0 and net48 build
clean for `Opc.Ua.Client`, `Opc.Ua.Server`, and the changed test
projects, and all changed files pass included-file info-severity
formatting on both targets.

The PR remains open; no merge was performed. As stated at the top, this
does not claim that every item in the 244-finding audit backlog is
complete.
## Latest CI follow-up at `b6f2dfa43`

Azure build 18442 exposed a net48 compile regression in the Kafka
adapter: `RuntimeHelpers.GetUninitializedObject` is unavailable on .NET
Framework. Commit `2cf1e0eed` now uses normal `ProducerMessage`
construction on `NETFRAMEWORK` while retaining reflection-based
construction for modern targets that can load a different Dekaf runtime
asset. The exact net48 CI selection passes 92 of 92 tests, and the
netstandard2.1 adapter guard selection passes 11 of 11.

After merging the latest `master`, GitHub Actions run 35643592139 is
green. The initial Ubuntu Core.Schema job built successfully and passed
160 of 160 tests, then hit an external 403 while finalizing its
test-result artifact; its failed-job rerun completed successfully. Azure
build 18451 was canceled when its remote provider deprovisioned the
net10.0 Sessions runner (`Received request to deprovision: The request
was cancelled by the remote provider`). Azure attached no test task log
or source error, and the canceled parent left that child check stale as
in-progress. No source workaround, test skip, or check relaxation was
made for either infrastructure failure.

Copilot 37b552254e Recover transferred notifications immediately after a subscription transfer (#4500) 
# Description

The V2 (managed) subscription engine republishes retransmission-queue
entries only while gap-walking sequence numbers in
`MessageProcessor.ProcessMessageCoreAsync`, which requires a *new data
message* to arrive. `Subscription.TryCompleteTransferAsync` merely
stored the `AvailableSequenceNumbers` returned by
`TransferSubscriptions`, so a subscription that stayed quiet — or that
only emitted keep-alives, which deliberately do not advance the data
dedup gate — never recovered the notifications the previous session left
behind. The V2 engine therefore did not deliver the classic
`RepublishAfterTransfer` guarantee that `docs/Subscriptions.md` claimed
it did implicitly.

Changes:

- **`MessageProcessor.RecoverTransferredMessagesAsync` (new,
protected)** — republishes every sequence number reported available by
`TransferSubscriptions`, oldest-first with wrap-aware ordering (Part 4
§7.30.5), serialized on the message dispatch gate and marked as dispatch
context. Afterwards it advances `LastDataSequenceNumberProcessed` /
`LastSequenceNumberProcessed` past the whole set — the server already
sent those messages, so the next publish must not be treated as the
first message after create — and clears the recovered entries from
`AvailableInRetransmissionQueue`. Empty input short-circuits before
taking the gate.
- **`Subscription.TryCompleteTransferAsync`** — calls the recovery after
releasing the state lock, so a notification handler may re-enter the
subscription. The transfer has already succeeded at that point, so
recovery errors are logged
(`SubscriptionFailedToRecoverTransferredMessages`) rather than reported
as a failed transfer; caller-requested cancellation still propagates.
- **Docs** — the `s.RepublishAfterTransfer` row in the classic→V2
mapping table now describes the actual (always-on, transfer-driven)
behavior.
- **Tests** — `MessageProcessorTests`: ordered recovery with no
subsequent publish and no duplicate republish afterwards, empty-input
no-op, ordering across the `uint.MaxValue → 1` wrap, and a failed
republish that still advances the gate.

Notes for review:
- The helper takes `IReadOnlyList<uint>` rather than `ArrayOf<uint>` to
match the surrounding transfer surface
(`IManagedSubscription.TryCompleteTransferAsync`,
`MessageProcessor.OnPublishReceivedAsync`, the internal
`AvailableInRetransmissionQueue` field); wrapping only this member would
add conversions without changing public API.
- Unlike classic, only *consecutive* top-of-queue entries are not
special-cased — the whole available set is recovered, matching the
existing V2 first-message-after-create path.

## Related Issues

The managed engine's transfer path did not recover pending notifications
on quiet subscriptions; see the classic-engine counterpart discussion
referenced in the issue.

## Session, reconnect and failover

- The reconnect `finally` re-acquired `m_reconnectLock` with the
caller's token, so a cancelled reconnect left the session stuck in
`Reconnecting` forever and every later reconnect failed. It now uses
`CancellationToken.None`.
- An in-place session recreate tore down subscriptions it should not
have: `transferred` is all-or-nothing, so a single failed transfer reset
and recreated the ones the server had just taken over, orphaning them on
the new session. `TransferSubscriptions` now reports the
per-subscription outcome and only the subscriptions the server did not
take over are recreated. A token-reuse failover keeps the same server
session, so nothing is transferred or reset there at all.
- In-place recreate only tears down the channel it created itself; a
caller-supplied channel or a channel-manager lease is left to its owner.
- `Snapshot(out SessionState)` went through the `SessionOptions` record
copy constructor, which drops every member declared on `SessionState`,
so the paired `Snapshot`/`Restore` API could not round-trip.
- The user-token policy override restored the policy URI on failure but
had already disposed the ECC ephemeral key the previous identity needs,
so the identity the rollback claims to preserve could no longer be
reactivated. The key is now parked and restored.
- `SetTriggering` batching sliced the remove list past its end when a
call had more adds than removes (Part 5 §6.3.11 bounds the *sum* of both
arrays, so an individual list may be shorter than the limit).
- The certificate-less `None` attempt dropped the request header, and
with it the ECDH ephemeral key that travels in `additionalHeader` (Part
4 §7.1/§7.15).
- `Session.Equals` compared a `ConfiguredEndpoint` against an
`EndpointDescription`, so a session did not equal a session on the same
endpoint.

## Managed session, pool and connection state machine

- `ManagedSession.Dispose()` blocked on the connection state machine's
worker, which raises `ConnectionStateChanged` synchronously — disposing
from that handler deadlocked permanently. The machine now recognises its
own flow and completes the teardown as the worker's continuation.
- `ManagedSessionFactory` dropped `updateBeforeConnect`, `connection`
and `reverseConnectManager` on all four `CreateAsync` overloads.
- The session pool ran its shared connect on no token at all, so once
the only caller gave up nothing could abort it and
`RemoveAsync`/`DisposeAsync` waited out the whole reconnect budget. Each
entry now owns the token that aborts its connect, and removal closes
*and* disposes the session.
- An explicit `engineFactory` was silently ignored for
`DefaultSessionFactory` subclasses, which quietly downgraded the session
to the classic subscription engine.

## Subscriptions

- Fixed a lock-order inversion between `m_subscriptionLock` and the
partition locks in `CompleteAsync` and `DisposeAsync`.
- `OwnsSubscriptionId` stopped at the first registered subscription
carrying the id — but in the very case it guards, the asker still holds
its own retired id, so the answer depended on `HashSet` enumeration
order and the delete could still tear down a sibling that had been
handed the recycled id.
- `MessageProcessor`'s republish gap walk was unbounded; it is now
bounded by the server's retransmission queue (Part 4 §5.14.5).
- A publish acknowledgement is sent even when a notification handler
throws — the ack means "the server may delete the message" (Part 4
§5.14.5.2), not "I processed it".
- Loaded monitored items did not raise the process-wide client-handle
counter, so a fresh process minted handles that collided with the loaded
ones; a transfer-restored item was also stamped `BadOperationAbandoned`
and left at the default monitoring mode.
- `AutoSetQueueSize` was not idempotent, so the queue size ratcheted up
on every subscription state change.
- The snapshot dropped the partition and recovery options entirely, and
clamped the sampling interval and the secondary-partition idle timeout
to zero — turning the Part 4 §7.21 "use the publishing interval"
sentinel and "never delete an idle partition" into something else.
- The state stream is positional OPC UA binary and the reader cannot
detect an absent field, so appending the partition options would have
mis-decoded every previously saved file. The stream now carries a format
version and the first format is decoded through a frozen copy of its
shape.

## Browse, node cache and the remaining clients

- Managed browse wrote a retry pass's status into whatever node happened
to sit at that offset in the caller's list, and retried
continuation-point errors without any bound. It now keeps the caller's
slot and gives up on passes that make no progress — a fixed pass cap
would cut short a large browse against a conforming server with a small
continuation-point quota.
- Continuation points are released when a consumer stops enumerating
early, as Part 4 §5.9.3.2 requires.
- The node cache reordered its batched results relative to the inputs,
which mispairs them for every consumer that matches positionally; its
supertype walks could also spin forever on a server whose `HasSubtype`
chain loops back on itself.
- A browse error was cached as "this node has no references"; it is now
surfaced to the direct caller, while the bulk and hierarchy walks treat
the node as having no references for that one operation without caching
it, so a single un-browsable node cannot fail a whole batch.
- `WebApiClient` mutated a caller-supplied (typically
`IHttpClientFactory`-pooled) `HttpClient`, which throws once that client
has sent its first request; those instances are configured per request
instead.
- `PathCache` was not thread-safe.

## Review follow-ups

The last two commits are the result of reviewing the audit fixes
themselves. Worth calling out: the `Task.WaitAsync(CancellationToken)`
polyfill in `Opc.Ua.Types` never checked `IsCompleted`, so an
already-finished task plus an already-cancelled token reported
cancellation on every pre-net8.0 target where the BCL overload returns
the result. It is now aligned with the BCL and pinned by a test.

### Verification

35 regression tests were added under
`tests/Opc.Ua.Client.Tests/AuditRegressions/` (category
`AuditRegression`), one per fixed defect where the defect is observable
at unit level; most were mutation-checked by reintroducing the bug and
confirming the test fails.

Locally on **net10.0**: `Opc.Ua.Client.Tests` 2252/2252,
`Opc.Ua.Client.ComplexTypes.Tests` 2773/2773,
`Opc.Ua.Bindings.Https.WebApi.Tests` 346/346, and all 23 library and
test projects that reference `Opc.Ua.Client` build clean.
`Opc.Ua.Client` also builds clean for **netstandard2.1**, the target
that actually compiles the `WaitAsync` polyfill. The full **UA.slnx**
solution and the .NET Framework targets have not been run locally — left
to CI.

One pre-existing failure in `Opc.Ua.Types.Tests` is unrelated to this
branch:
`WotSpecFixtureManifestTests.EveryEmbeddedExampleMatchesItsRecordedHash`
(embedded WoT fixture hashes) fails identically with these changes
reverted.

### Notes for reviewers

- Two review findings were deliberately left unfixed and are documented
in the code: `ManagedSession.CreateAsync` has to write the engine choice
onto a caller-supplied `DefaultSessionFactory` subclass (the only
alternative is changing the `ISessionFactory.Create` contract), and the
connection state machine's "am I on my own worker" flag is an
`AsyncLocal`, so it also flows into work a `StateChanged` handler
spawns. The previous behaviour in that second case was a hard deadlock.
- `Session.Dispose()`'s single `GetAwaiter().GetResult()` bridge to
`CloseAsync` is left as is: `Dispose(bool)` must be synchronous and
`DisposeAsync` already exists.

Marc Schier 7d5f7a7076 Add shared stack APIs and fixes used by UaLens (#4464) 
# Description

Extract shared stack, regression-test, sample and documentation changes
from draft #4462 into a separate prerequisite PR. The PR now contains
**19 shared paths**: the original eighteen extracted files plus a
focused user-management regression file added during review. It does not
include UaLens source, desktop dependencies, solution registrations or
application documentation.

## Changes

- Correct the V2 ConditionRefresh target and response validation. Bound
disposal-time remote subscription deletion with an independent
five-second TimeProvider-backed cancellation deadline, allowing local
cleanup after a server outage. This is a per-delete limit, not a global
application shutdown deadline.
- Preserve configured PubSub writer message/header settings, canonical
numeric JSON publisher matching, and flattened DataValue
quality/timestamps.
- Add asynchronous user-management client wrappers over the generated
standard proxy, and set file/directory method declaration IDs needed by
typed client workflows.
- Enable AI client NativeAOT compatibility and add focused AI client
regressions.
- Enable the ConsoleReferenceServer file-system node manager and
configure 1 ms publishing/sampling demonstrations. These sample defaults
do not promise hard real-time delivery.
- Document the subscription and PubSub behavior. Make the new
subscription/PubSub regression helpers portable to .NET Framework
without weakening their assertions.

## Review follow-up

Commit `812297ce1` aligns both public `ListUsersAsync` signatures with
`ValueTask<ArrayOf<UserManagementUser>>`. The implementation constructs
its result directly from an owned snapshot array, without an
intermediate list.

Five focused cases pass on **net10.0 and net48**:
`ListUsersReturnsArrayOfSnapshotsAsync` checks both interface and
concrete entry points and preserves snapshot order, values and flags;
`ListUsersReturnsEmptyArrayAsync` covers typed-empty and missing values;
`ListUsersPreservesBadReadStatusAsync` checks the exact server failure
status.

All **eight single-line XML summaries** were converted to multi-line
form. A complete scan of the fourteen changed C# files, including the
new test, finds zero remaining single-line summaries. Scoped
whitespace/line-ending verification passes.

The sole UaLens caller was adapted separately in draft #4462
(`4caf69f33`). A fresh combined dependency-graph build and all **924
UaLens net10.0 tests** pass with both changes. Each of the three review
threads received an action-taken reply and was resolved only after the
fixes were pushed and verified.

## Split boundary

The branch originated at `a45105375`; the subsequent master merge
`f209f3804` incorporates upstream `4633aa7a3`. The original shared
changes and review regression remain separate from the app. Draft #4462
retains `tools\Opc.Ua.Lens`, `tests\Opc.Ua.Lens.Tests`, and its six
solution/package/documentation integration files.

**Merge this prerequisite before the UaLens draft.** The draft consumes
the extracted APIs. Published history is preserved; neither PR has been
merged automatically.

## Initial split validation

The following results describe the initial split validation at
`fa7199afa`; current review-specific validation is recorded above.

| Scope | net10.0 | net48 |
|---|---:|---:|
| Client subscription/file-system tests | 168 passed | 168 passed |
| Server file-system/user-management tests | 244 passed | 244 passed |
| PubSub writer/reader regressions | 34 passed | 34 passed |
| ConsoleReferenceServer build | Passed | Passed |

The corrected portable regression helpers were rechecked on net10.0
after the net48 fixes. The combined UaLens application also passed its
924-case net10.0 suite before extraction.

**Focused NativeAOT: 16 passed, zero failed/skipped.** A session-local
TUnit runner linked the exact committed `AIClientAotTests.cs` and
referenced the real AI client project. It published without warnings or
suppressions and executed as a genuine Windows native binary with no CLR
header.

The canonical `Opc.Ua.Aot.Tests` project was blocked by pre-existing
CS8632 nullable-annotation errors in unchanged upstream
`SchemaAotTests.cs` (lines 82, 127, 129 and 132). Its existing nullable
configuration and all upstream tests were preserved; the focused result
is not a claim that the full AOT test project builds.

The net48 hosting selection uses a short NUnit WorkDirectory: the
existing fixture builds long PKI paths that otherwise exceed the
platform's path limit. The original full selection passed without test
exclusions, source changes or increased timeouts.

Scoped builds reported inherited warnings in unchanged upstream files:
CA1508 in `ReferenceBuilderExtensions.cs`, CA1861 in
`NodeSetImportIntegrationTests.cs`, and net48 CA1823 in
`DefaultNodeIdFactory.cs`. They were not suppressed or folded into this
split. Full-solution, coverage and CI/CodeQL gates remain unasserted.

romanett a451053758 Fix the recurring and permanent CI failures on master (#4446) 
# Description

Almost every `master` build was reporting yellow or red, which meant the
pipeline signal had stopped being useful: a genuinely broken build
looked the same as a healthy one. I triaged every `master` build from
the last week across Azure DevOps (definition 14, 38 builds) and GitHub
Actions, clustered the errors by root cause, and fixed the nine that
were still live.

The headline finding is that the two loudest problems were not test bugs
at all. Codecov rejects the upload on **28 out of 28 builds**, and that
single warning is what turned every master build `partiallySucceeded`.
Separately, the weekly HA long-haul soak was mathematically incapable of
passing: the configured duration is per *scenario*, and the two
`[NonParallelizable]` soaks run back to back, so the floor is 2 x 60
minutes plus teardown against a 110-minute step budget.

A tenth cluster (the `Opc.Ua.Sessions.Tests` reverse-connect flake, 6
hits around Aug 31) was already fixed by #4366 and has not recurred, so
it needed no work.

## Clusters and root causes

| Cluster | Frequency | Root cause |
|---|---|---|
| codecov upload exits 1 | **28/28 builds** | Codecov returns
`Repository not found`; the resulting warning made every master build
yellow |
| `No space left on device` in coverage merge | nightly | Hosted Ubuntu
agent disk exhausted by the per-matrix coverage artifacts |
| Sample HA Long-Haul timeout | weekly | 2 soaks x 60 min against a 110
min budget, so it could never pass |
| `Artifact coverage-report already exists` | on stage re-run | Pipeline
artifact names must be unique per build |
| `NodeCache*` -> `address already in use` | macOS | `ServerFixture`
retried only `BadNoCommunication`; Kestrel https throws
`IOException`/`AddressInUseException` and escaped the retry, failing the
whole `OneTimeSetUp` |
| `MetricsAreEmittedForChannelLifetimeAsync` | macOS | Entry teardown
emits `close` *before* the `active(-1)` up/down counter, but the test
only waited for `close` |
| `OnPublishReceivedKeepAliveShouldDispatchKeepAliveAsync` | net472 |
The processor queues the ack *after* dispatching the notification the
test waits on |
| `ACarriedPartIsAuthoredAtTheGripperItRidesInAsync` | macOS | A single
starved sample (0.2125 m) tripped a 0.20 m absolute worst-case bound |
| `RobotIntentLiveChannelTests` fixture timeout | net472 | 30 s startup
budget too tight, and the failure text interpolated `lastException`
*before* the polling that assigns it, so it always read `Last error: .`
|

## Approach

**Pipeline.** Coverage reporting is best-effort by design, so the
codecov step now swallows the uploader's exit code and reports the
failure as plain log output rather than a warning that colours the run.
The coverage merge job reclaims the unused Android/GHC/Swift/CodeQL
toolchains before anything writes to the agent, and qualifies its
artifact name on a retry only, so the normal first attempt still
publishes `coverage-report`. The long-haul budgets were raised above the
real floor in both the workflow and the ADO pipeline, and the display
names now say `min/scenario` so the next reader does not repeat the same
miscalculation.

**Tests.** Each test fix targets the specific ordering or bound that was
wrong, rather than adding sleeps. The two metric/ack races now wait on
the measurement the assertions actually depend on. The OpenUSD test
gates the 95th percentile instead of the absolute worst case: the defect
it guards is systematic and moves *every* sample 0.25-0.49 m while the
robot drives, so it still fails that gate loudly, while one straddled
sample no longer can.

## Worth a careful look

- **The port-collision fix is the one real behavioural change.**
`ServerFixtureUtils.IsPortUnavailable` now classifies every transport's
form of the collision, including matching Kestrel's
`AddressInUseException` by type name so the test framework needs no
reference to the ASP.NET Core connection abstractions. It deliberately
does *not* match unrelated failures, which is covered by a negative
test, so a certificate error still surfaces immediately instead of being
retried 25 times on different ports.
- **I dropped an integration test I had written for that fix.** While
validating it I found the UA-TCP listener tolerates a partial bind on
Windows, so `StartAsync` succeeds on the same port and the test asserted
something untrue. I replaced it with deterministic unit tests of the
classifier instead of shipping a test that would itself become flaky.
- **The codecov fix is a mitigation, not a cure.** The `Repository not
found` response is account-side: the `CODECOV_TOKEN` is stale or the
repository is not activated. This change stops it from colouring the
build and logs the failure plainly, but uploads will not actually land
until someone refreshes the token. Flagging that explicitly so it is not
mistaken for a full fix.

### Notes on the checklist

- Documentation: no doc updates were needed. The changes are CI
configuration and test-harness fixes with no public API surface, and the
rationale is captured in comments at each changed site.
- Local verification: all touched projects build clean on **net10.0**
and **net48**, and the targeted tests pass (Server 5/5, Client 46/46,
Features 31/31, Robotics.Intent 20/20, plus the Di and Core.Tests
cases). One pre-existing local `net48` PKI-store failure in
`Opc.Ua.Robotics.Intent.Tests` reproduces on unmodified `master` and is
unrelated to this change; CI's `net472` leg runs that project fine.

romanett ad6430f560 Fix transient PublishWorkerCount overshoot in the publish controller (#4344) 
Fixes #4339.

## Cause

`PublishControllerAsync` sized the worker pool at the **top** of its
loop, before its first `await`. The `SubscriptionManager` constructor
calls the controller directly, so that first resize ran *synchronously
inside the constructor* — with
`MinPublishWorkerCount`/`MaxPublishWorkerCount` still at their defaults
(2 / 15), because owners configure them afterwards.

A session that already reports subscriptions — a classic, session-owned
subscription counts through
`ISubscriptionManagerContext.SessionSubscriptionCount` — therefore had
`1` clamped **up** to the default minimum of 2, spun up two workers in
the constructor, and published that overshoot through
`PublishWorkerCount`. The configured `Min = Max = 1` then shrank the
pool back asynchronously.

Confirmed with a probe before changing anything:

```
PROBE right after ctor: 2
```

which reproduces the issue's `Worker #0 STARTED / #0 PAUSED / #1
STARTED` log exactly.
`ClassicSessionSubscriptionStartsPublishWorkerAsync` pins the pool to
one worker and samples the property directly, so it failed whenever it
read it before the controller had shrunk the pool back.

## Fix

The control loop now waits first and sizes the pool afterwards:

```
wait -> reap exited workers -> resize -> publish the count
```

The pool is only ever sized in response to a signal or a worker exit,
never from unconfigured defaults, and the count is assigned once the
pool has settled — so a worker that has exited is never counted
alongside its replacement (the second half of the issue's *Expected
Behavior*).

Two supporting changes were required:

- **Publish workers now start on the thread pool.** The controller
creates them inline, and the worker loop only yields where it awaits
something not already complete. With the resize moved behind the wait,
workers are typically created while publishing is already running, which
made that starvation reachable: I hit it while testing — 430k publishes
in 2 s with `PublishControlCycles` stuck at 1 and `PublishWorkerCount`
stuck at 0. The same starvation would hang `DisposeAsync`, which awaits
the controller.
- **`Resume()`, and leaving publishing quiescence, now signal the
publish control**, so the pool is sized promptly once publishing starts
rather than waiting for an unrelated event.

## Tests

- `ClassicSessionSubscriptionStartsPublishWorkerAsync` now settles the
pool through the existing `WaitForPublishWorkerCountAsync` helper
instead of sampling the property bare.
- New
`PublishWorkerPoolIsNeverSizedFromDefaultsBeforeConfigurationAsync` pins
the constructor behaviour (count stays 0 while the defaults are in
force) and asserts the count never leaves 1 while workers publish.

## Verification

- `Opc.Ua.Client.Tests`: 2151/2151 pass.
- `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests`: 619 passed, 6 skipped, 0 failed (22 m 18
s).
- The two affected tests stressed 15x in a row: green.
- `dotnet format whitespace --verify-no-changes` clean.

Copilot 90a85eda13 Fix V2 managed subscription keep-alive timer clamping causing false PublishingStopped flapping (#4324) 
# Description

V2 managed subscriptions were clamping computed keep-alive intervals to
`Timeout.InfiniteTimeSpan` (`-1ms`), then immediately flooring to `1s`,
which caused continuous false `PublishState.Stopped → Recovered`
flapping during normal publish gaps.
This change corrects interval clamping so the watchdog uses
server-revised keep-alive timing instead of a forced 1-second cadence.

- **Root cause correction (V2 `Subscription.StartKeepAliveTimer`)**
- Replaced invalid upper-bound check against `Timeout.InfiniteTimeSpan`
with a real timer max bound.
- Added `s_maxKeepAliveTimerInterval =
TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(uint.MaxValue - 1u)` and clamp to that value.

- **Behavioral impact**
- Preserves expected keep-alive windows derived from
`CurrentPublishingInterval * (CurrentKeepAliveCount + 1)`.
  - Prevents false outage signaling on normal inter-publish gaps.

- **Regression coverage**
- Added a focused test asserting revised values (e.g., `2800ms`,
keep-alive count `30`) produce the expected interval and do not collapse
to `1s`.

```csharp
if (m_keepAliveInterval > s_maxKeepAliveTimerInterval)
{
    m_keepAliveInterval = s_maxKeepAliveTimerInterval;
}
```

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.

Marc Schier 416d619c41 Split the CI matrix across both systems, split the required test gate from the advisory coverage check, and give background work an owner (#4158) 
# Description

Two changes to how CI is routed and how it reports.

## 1. Split the CI matrix back across both systems

Flips both halves of the CI backend switch from `ado` to `actions`, so
the workload is shared instead of concentrated on the managed pool. The
switch is checked into source in **two places that must always be
flipped together**:

| File | Setting | Before | After |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `azure-pipelines.yml` | `parameters.ciBuildBackend` | `ado` |
`actions` |
| `.github/workflows/buildandtest.yml` | `env.CI_BUILD_BACKEND` | `ado`
| `actions` |

| Work | GitHub Actions | Azure Pipelines (managed pool) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| All-TFM solution builds | `build-all-tfm-windows` + `-linux` | two-TFM
PR gate (`net10.0`, `net48`) |
| Test matrix | ubuntu, every test project | Windows `net48` + `net10.0`
fast PR legs |
| Native AoT | ubuntu | Schedule/Manual only |
| macOS | always (no managed-pool macOS image) | — |

## 2. Split the required gate from the advisory coverage check

The coverage gate job was appended to *every* test stage, so `Fast PR
test` emitted three sibling checks whose display names collided —
`Coverage Release (net10.0)` appeared twice, once for the Windows leg
and once for macOS, with nothing to tell them apart:

```text
✓ Coverage Release (net48)      55s
● Coverage Release (net10.0)
○ Coverage Release (net10.0)
```

That job also fused two unrelated concerns: whether the tests passed
(which must block a merge) and whether coverage met its thresholds
(which should not — the `net10.0` leg had `enforceCoverage: true`, so a
coverage dip blocked merges).

Both concerns now get a stage of their own, mirrored in both CI systems:

| Concern | Azure Pipelines | GitHub Actions | In the branch ruleset? |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Every test passed | **`Tests passed`** stage | **`build-and-test
summary`** job | **Yes — required** |
| Coverage meets thresholds | **`Code coverage`** stage | **`code
coverage`** job | **No — advisory** |

The coverage check reports a clean failure when the thresholds are
missed, so the miss is visible, but it never blocks the merge.

Coverage is now merged **once** across every leg of the run instead of
once per leg, which also removes the `enforceCoverage` /
`publishCoverage` "exactly one invocation may set this" parameters.
Neither check re-runs any tests — the previous design re-ran the whole
suite in one job with the collector attached, which serialised a suite
that is deliberately fanned out and always exceeded the stage timeout.

### Coverage checks now exist in GitHub Actions

`build-and-test` already ran with `--collect:"XPlat Code Coverage"` and
uploaded the fragments, but nothing ever merged or evaluated them. It
now runs the same `check-coverage.ps1` against the same
`coverage-thresholds.json` as Azure. Since `CI_BUILD_BACKEND` defaults
to `actions`, that ubuntu matrix — which runs *every* test project — is
the fullest coverage signal in the repository.

### Reporting the numbers

`check-coverage.ps1` gained `-SummaryPath`, rendering a markdown report
that both systems surface:

- **GitHub Actions** — appended to the job summary and upserted as a
single **sticky pull-request comment**, updated in place on each run.
Threshold misses also appear as `::error::` annotations.
- **Azure Pipelines** — attached to the build summary via
`##vso[task.uploadsummary]`.

The report is a pass/fail table of the project floor, patch coverage and
baseline delta, with the uncovered changed lines listed by file in a
collapsible block. Rendered example:

> ## Code coverage
>
> ❌ **Coverage gate failed.** This check is advisory and does not
block the merge.
>
> | Check | Result | Threshold |
> | --- | --- | --- |

The comment is fork-safe: a `pull_request` from a fork gets a read-only
token regardless of the `permissions:` block, so it degrades to the job
summary alone. The sticky comment uses `actions/github-script` rather
than a community action, keeping this workflow on first-party actions
only.

## Notable correctness details

These were found and fixed during review, and are the parts most worth a
second pair of eyes:

- **`dependencies.<stage>.result` resolves at *stage* scope only.** At
job scope `dependencies` refers to other jobs of the same stage, so
reading stage results from a jobs template would have silently returned
empty and the gate would have passed everything. `gate.yml` and
`coverage.yml` are therefore **stage** templates that derive their own
`dependsOn` from the same stage list they evaluate, so the two can never
drift apart. An unresolved result is a hard error.
- **Both rollups run on `not(canceled())` / `always()`**, not on
success. A check that reports **skipped** is treated by GitHub as
**satisfied**, so a required check that skips when its dependency fails
would wave a red build straight through.
- **`get-matrix.ps1` used to emit an empty matrix on a discovery miss.**
The downstream job is then skipped, a skipped job rolls up as a
*succeeded* stage, and the gate would have approved a run that executed
no tests. It now fails, with an `-AllowEmpty` opt-out.
- **Zero coverage reports used to be a green advisory check**, which
would hide a broken collector indefinitely. Both systems now distinguish
"the tests never ran" (warning) from "the tests ran and published
nothing" (error).
- The gate reads stage-level results rather than enumerating
matrix-generated job names, which change whenever a test project or
agent is added.

## Test-host hang and the reconnect defect behind it — both fixed

Flipping `CI_BUILD_BACKEND` to `actions` started exercising the ubuntu
matrix, which
`master` never runs, and it immediately surfaced two real defects.

**1. The test host hung for ten minutes.** `Assert.ThrowsAsync` blocks
the calling thread
with no timeout, and these tests drive a *fake clock* from that same
thread — so once the
reconnect parked on a fake-clock timer, nothing could ever advance it.
NUnit sat in
`WaitForCompletion` until `--blame-hang-timeout` killed the host,
aborting the run at 3902
of 4238 tests and taking every other test in the assembly down with it.
A hang dump named
the culprit exactly. Replaced with an awaited, bounded
`AssertThrowsAsync` helper (the
repo's own rules forbid sync over async). The run now completes in
**~1m29s** with all
tests executed.

**2. A budget-aware reconnect never returned.** With the hang gone, two
tests failed with
`Expected ServiceResultException but got TimeoutException`. `dumpasync`
on a hang dump gave
the whole chain:

```
ReconnectAsyncWithBudgetShrinksDelayToFitRemainingAsync
  → AssertThrowsAsync
  → ClientChannelManager.ReconnectAsync
  → ClientChannelManager.ReconnectLeaseAsync
  → ClientChannelManager.SwapFaultedEntryAsync   ← parked here
```

`master` (via #4128) added `IsTerminalReconnectRace` so a reconnect that
loses a race
against a concurrent close recovers on a freshly swapped entry. The
predicate only asks
whether the entry ended up `Closed`/`Faulted` with
`BadSecureChannelClosed` — which is
*also* exactly how a reconnect ends when the caller's retry budget or
the reconnect policy
is deliberately exhausted. So a budget-exhausted reconnect was misread
as a race: the
manager swapped the entry and started a **second, unbudgeted** cycle,
waiting out the swap
back-off first. `ReconnectAsync(channel, budget)` therefore could not
return within its
budget, and under a fake clock it never returned at all.

The fix requires the budget to have room left before treating a terminal
failure as a race:

```csharp
return !ct.IsCancellationRequested &&
    !budget.IsExhausted &&
    sre.StatusCode == StatusCodes.BadSecureChannelClosed &&
    entry.State is ChannelState.Closed or ChannelState.Faulted;
```

The parameterless `ReconnectAsync(channel, ct)` overload passes an
unlimited budget, so
genuine race recovery is unchanged. Verified locally: Core 4152, Client
2122 and Sessions
776 tests all pass, and the full GitHub Actions PR run is green across
56 jobs.

Two smaller fixes came along the way, neither weakening an assertion:

- `ObservableFakeTimeProvider` waiters made **relative** ("N more timers
from now") rather
than absolute ("the Nth timer of the run"). Absolute numbering let an
earlier reconnect
consume the slots, so a waiter completed before the awaited timer
existed and `Advance()`
  fired nothing.
- The raw worker thread in `NodeStateHandlerConcurrencyTests` was a
**foreground** thread
whose stop flag was read without a barrier and set only on the success
path — a failed
assertion leaked a spinning thread that pins the process at exit. Now
background,
  `Volatile`, stopped in a `finally`, joined with a bound.
## Background work now has an owner

The reconnect hang above was one symptom of a pattern the codebase had
**26 times** across seven assemblies: a bare `_ = Task.Run(...)`. Each
one handed work to the thread pool and forgot it — nothing observed the
exception if it threw, nothing bounded how many ran at once, and
disposal raced them, so a component could finish tearing itself down
while work it started was still touching its fields. Two of those sites
already carried a standing `// TODO: Await the task completion in
shutdown`.

`BackgroundTaskScope` (in `Opc.Ua.Types`) gives them an owner: schedule
with `Run`, drain with `DisposeAsync`, or signal-only with `Dispose`
where the owner's teardown is synchronous and awaiting would be sync
over async. `Run` never blocks and never throws — which matters, because
most of these call sites went to the thread pool precisely to escape a
lock they were holding. 11 unit tests cover drain, cancellation,
exception observation, the concurrency cap, post-shutdown rejection and
idempotent disposal.

Two of the fixes were more than re-wiring:

- **`SessionManager` / `SubscriptionManager` loops were structurally
unawaitable.** Both return `ValueTask`, so `Task.Factory.StartNew(() =>
...)` handed back a `Task<ValueTask>` that completes at the first yield.
Storing it would not have helped — awaiting it would only have awaited
the *scheduling*. Both now go through `AsTask().Unwrap()`, matching the
neighbouring `StartConditionRefreshWorker`.
- **`ChannelAsyncOperation` was swallowing subscriber exceptions.** Its
`doNotBlock` branch had no try/catch while the inline branch beside it
did. It is per-operation with no owner to hang a drain on, so it gained
the missing handler rather than a scope.

The Kubernetes readiness endpoint keeps a purpose-built semaphore
instead: an unauthenticated endpoint needs a hard cap on concurrent
handlers, not just an owner.

### ⚠️ Breaking: `ISessionManager.Shutdown()` is removed

Replaced by `ShutdownAsync(CancellationToken)`. There is no correct
synchronous way to wait for the session monitor loop, so leaving the
overload would only have preserved the race. This mirrors
`ISubscriptionManager`, which already had `ShutdownAsync`. Migration
notes are in `docs/MigrationGuide.md`; only one in-repo implementer
existed.

Also converted the injected `object partitionLock` shared by
`LogicalSubscription` and `CompositeMonitoredItemCollection` to
`System.Threading.Lock`, per the repo rule.

## Patch coverage now scales with the size of the patch

A flat floor over changed lines punishes small changes for arithmetic:
two uncovered lines in a four-line fix reads as 50 % and failed an 80/5
floor — which is exactly how this branch earned a red coverage check for
a four-line predicate change. A check that fires on changes nobody
considers undertested is one people learn to ignore.

| Coverable changed lines | Floor | Below it |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 – 10 | 50 % | warning, still passes |
| 11 – 100 | 60 % | warning, still passes |
| more than 100 | 75 % | **failure** |

Only changes past the last band can fail. Below it the author still gets
a warning naming the uncovered lines. Bands live in `patch.bands` in
`coverage-thresholds.json` and each carries its own `enforced` flag.
Verified end-to-end against synthetic repositories at every boundary.

## Codecov is back, as reporting

Dropped in #4122 when the in-pipeline gate replaced it. Keeping the gate
was right, but dropping Codecov also lost the PR comment, the
file-by-file diff view and the trend. It returns with both statuses
`informational: true` — two gates with two sets of thresholds would
eventually disagree, and `coverage-thresholds.json` stays the single
source of truth.

The upload is switchable and can never fail a build: `enableCodecov`
(Azure) and `ENABLE_CODECOV` (Actions), both defaulting on, both skipped
when `CODECOV_TOKEN` is absent as on fork PRs. Each system uploads the
single merged report it already builds, under its own flag. The old
`codecov.io/bash` uploader was sunset, so Azure uses the current CLI.

## Follow-up actions for maintainers

1. **Update the branch ruleset.** The per-leg `Coverage Release (…)`
checks are gone. Azure reports checks as `<pipeline> (<stage> <job>)`,
so the exact names are:

   | Check | Require? |
   | --- | --- |
| `OPCFoundation.UA-.NETStandard (Tests passed Verify stage results)` |
**yes** |
   | `build-and-test summary` | **yes** (already required) |
| `OPCFoundation.UA-.NETStandard (Code coverage Merge and evaluate)` |
no |
   | `code coverage` | no |
2. **Re-calibrate the thresholds.** `coverage-thresholds.json` is still
seeded from the last Codecov reading (73.61 %). The two systems now
report *different* numbers by design — Actions merges every project on
ubuntu, Azure only the Windows fast-PR legs, and scheduled runs read
higher still because the Debug / .NET 8 / .NET 9 / netstandard stages
also contribute. Re-seed from the GitHub Actions figure.
3. **Note:** a failed advisory coverage stage still turns the whole
Azure run red, which the README build badge reflects on `master`. That
follows from wanting a visible red X on a threshold miss; say the word
if you would rather it were a warning.
4. **The Azure agent pool is the slowest thing here.** Several runs on
this PR sat queued for hours, and one build failed with `Insufficient
system resources` while writing an XML doc file — an agent exhaustion
error, not a code error. It passed on re-run. Worth raising against the
`netstandard` Managed DevOps Pool capacity separately.

Marc Schier 3713641479 Throttle client publish worker on undeliverable publish responses (+ CodeQL OOM fix) (#4121) 
# Description

Fixes a busy-spin in the client publish worker that crashed the
**net48** CI test host (e.g. [build
16092](https://opcfoundation.visualstudio.com/opcua-netstandard/_build/results?buildId=16092&view=results),
`Test Release` reported *"The active test run was aborted. Reason: Test
host process crashed"* on
`SubscriptionManagerTests.PublishWorkerDefersDeletingUnknownSubscriptionWhileCreationIsPendingAsync`).

It also carries a small, self-contained CI fix for the repository-wide
CodeQL out-of-memory failure (see the last section).

## Root cause

In `SubscriptionManager.PublishWorkerAsync`, a publish response whose
`SubscriptionId` does not resolve to a subscription the manager owns set
`moreNotifications = true`. That flag **skips the ack-wait throttle**,
so the worker immediately re-issues `Publish`.

The condition is *persistent* — the server keeps answering with the same
undeliverable identifier — so the worker spun with **zero delay**,
logged at `Information` level on every iteration, and in the orphan
branch issued `DeleteSubscriptions` for the very same subscription on
every single response. With a transport that completes synchronously the
loop additionally never released its thread pool thread.

Measured on the unmodified code, for a single 485 ms test:

| Metric | Before |
|---|---|
| `DeleteSubscriptions` calls for one orphan | **16,500** |
| "deferred unknown subscription" log lines | **4,296** |
| TRX produced by that one test | **4.86 MB** (47% of the whole
2,124-test assembly) |
| Peak test host working set | ~528 MB |

On a slow 2-core hosted agent the polling loops stretch out, the spin
runs far longer, and the unbounded log/allocation growth takes the test
host down.

Beyond the CI symptom this is a real client defect: against a live
server the client would hammer it with `Publish`/`DeleteSubscriptions`
and flood the log whenever a subscription identifier cannot be resolved.

## Changes

`src/Opc.Ua.Client/Subscription/SubscriptionManager.cs`

- Undeliverable publish responses (retired identifier, identifier still
pending creation, or genuine orphan) now **always throttle** through a
new `DelayUnresolvedSubscriptionAsync` — an escalating, bounded backoff
(20 ms doubling to a 250 ms cap) — instead of republishing immediately.
- After deleting an orphan, its identifier is passed to
`RetireSubscriptionId`, so responses already in flight (or emitted
before the delete takes effect) are ignored rather than triggering
another delete. **One delete instead of thousands.**
- The deferral message is logged once per run of the same unresolved
identifier instead of once per response.
- The unresolved-response counters reset as soon as a response is
dispatched successfully.


`tests/Opc.Ua.Client.Tests/Subscription/Fakes/FakeSubscriptionManagerContext.cs`

- The call recordings were plain `List<T>` appended to from
publish-worker threads while the test thread read them. They are now
guarded by a `System.Threading.Lock` and exposed as snapshot
`IReadOnlyList<T>` getters.
- Added `DeleteCallsCount`, a locked count accessor, so polling wait
conditions do not allocate a snapshot per iteration.

`tests/Opc.Ua.Client.Tests/Subscription/SubscriptionManagerTests.cs`

- `PublishWorkerThrottlesWhileSubscriptionIdIsUnresolvedAsync` — bounds
the publish count over a 500 ms window; fails loudly on the old code.
- `PublishWorkerDeletesUnknownSubscriptionOnlyOnceAsync` — asserts
exactly one `DeleteSubscriptions` call for an orphan.

## Results

| Metric (single test) | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Deferred log lines | 4,296 | 3 |
| `DeleteSubscriptions` log lines | 16,500 | 3 |
| TRX size | 4,856,749 B | 6,466 B (**750×** smaller) |

The full-assembly TRX dropped from 10.30 MB to 4.92 MB.

No public API change; behaviour change is limited to the
undeliverable-publish-response path.

## CodeQL out-of-memory fix (`.github/workflows/codeql-analysis.yml`)

The CodeQL job has been failing repository wide — on `master` and on
every open PR — with:

```
CodeQL is out of memory. Try running CodeQL on a larger runner (hosted or self-hosted).
Error running analysis for csharp: ... codeql database interpret-results --threads=4 ...
Exit code was 99
```

The CodeQL step builds `UA.slnx` without `CustomTestTarget`, so
`targets.props` falls through to its default and multi-targets up to
**six** frameworks (`net472`, `net48`, `netstandard2.1`, `net8.0`,
`net9.0`, `net10.0`). CodeQL therefore extracts every source file once
per framework. The same multiplier applies to source-generated code,
which `EmitCompilerGeneratedFiles` materializes on disk —
`Opc.Ua.Core.Types` alone emits **52 MB** of generated C# for a *single*
framework. The database and source archive grew until
`interpret-results` exhausted the runner's memory.

- Pin the CodeQL build to `-p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0` so every source
file is extracted once instead of ~6×. Verified locally: `UA.slnx`
builds with **0 errors** under that property.
- Limit the analyze step to `threads: 2`, bounding the peak memory of
the step that failed.

This is unrelated to the publish-worker fix and is happy to be split out
if maintainers prefer.

## Review feedback addressed

- Snapshot properties are read once into a local before asserting, so
two reads cannot observe different snapshots.
- Wait conditions poll the new non-allocating `DeleteCallsCount` instead
of `DeleteCalls.Count`.
- The sync root is declared as the fully qualified
`System.Threading.Lock`. An `object`-typed sync root was **not** used:
repository coding standards forbid it, and
`Opc.Ua.Types/Polyfills/System.Threading.cs` already backports a public
`System.Threading.Lock` for every TFM below net9.0.

The branch was rebased onto current `master` (`8a10139b8`).

Marc Schier 636912bd4c Harden subscription retirement after #4114 and refresh the client namespace table on model change (#4115) 
# Description

Two things, both surfaced by the live NodeManager registration work in
#4094.

> **Rebased on #4114.** Upstream landed #4114 (`cc4667d0b`) while this
PR was open; it fixes the
> same #4113 root cause. `origin/master` is merged in and the conflicts
were resolved **in favour of
> the upstream API shape** — `CompleteAsync(IMessageProcessor, uint
subscriptionId, ct)` with the
> last known server id passed as an argument. The
`IMessageProcessor.LastServerId` member this
> branch had added is dropped again. What remains here is the orthogonal
hardening #4114 does not
> cover, plus all of the #4100 work.

## 1. Remaining subscription-retirement hardening (on top of #4114)

#4114 fixed the id-collision itself. Three related holes in the same
paths are still open:

- **Retirement was not atomic with removal.** `RetireSubscriptionId` is
now called *under*
`m_subscriptionLock` from both `CompleteAsync` and
`RemoveSecondaryPartitionAsync`. `GetById`
resolves incoming publish responses under the same lock, so a worker
could otherwise observe the
subscription as removed while its id had not yet reached the retired-id
ring — and send a
redundant `DeleteSubscriptions` for an already-retired id.
`RemoveSecondaryPartitionAsync` did not
  record the retired id at all.
- **The retired-id ring was far too small.** `kMaxSubscriptionHistory`
10 → 256, so subscription
  churn cannot evict live history.
- **The orphan delete was unguarded.** The publish worker no longer
sends `DeleteSubscriptions` for
an unresolved id while any subscription is still awaiting its id. A
publish response can overtake
the `CreateSubscription` continuation that assigns the id, and deleting
in that window kills a
healthy subscription. Leaving a genuine orphan alive until its lifetime
expires is the safe
  trade-off.
- **`PublishControllerAsync` lost resize signals.** It re-created its
`AsyncAutoResetEvent` waiter on
every loop iteration; the abandoned waiter stayed enqueued and swallowed
a later `Set()`, so the
publish worker pool stopped resizing. This is a second, latent
starvation path independent of the
id collision. The wait is now created once and only re-armed after it
completes.

## 2. Managed client does not refresh the namespace table on model
change (#4100)

`NodeManagerLifecycle.NotifyCommittedChangeAsync` updates
`NamespaceArray`, bumps `UrisVersion`, and
then reports a **`BaseModelChangeEvent`** — an event shape that carries
no `Changes` payload. The
client tracker *did* observe it and cleared the `INodeCache`, but it
held only an
`IStreamingSubscription`, an `INodeCache` and an `ILogger`, so nothing
could re-read the namespace
table. A tracking client therefore resolved NodeIds from a namespace
added by a live NodeManager
registration against a stale `NamespaceUris` table.

- **New `INamespaceTableRefresher`** (`NamespaceUris` +
`FetchNamespaceTablesAsync`). The member
signatures match what `Session` and `ManagedSession` already expose, so
both satisfy the interface
without any new members. `ISession` is deliberately left untouched —
moving its members onto a base
  interface would be a binary break for 1.5.378 consumers.
- **`ModelChangeTracker`** takes the refresher as an optional *trailing*
constructor argument, which
keeps every existing call site source-compatible and makes `null` the
opt-out. A refresh runs when
the event carries no per-node detail, when an affected node is
`Server_NamespaceArray`, or when an
affected namespace index is beyond the client's table. It runs
**before** the cache is invalidated
and before `ModelChanged` is raised, so subscribers that re-browse from
the handler already see the
  new uris. A failing refresh is logged and swallowed.
- **`ModelChangedEventArgs.NamespaceTableRefreshed`** reports the
refresh to applications.
- **`ManagedSession.EnableModelChangeTrackingAsync`** wires the session
in, so opting into tracking
is all an application has to do — no new option, no change to the
positional `CreateAsync`
  signature.
- **`ModelChange.TypeDefinition`** changes from `NodeId?` to `NodeId`.
`NodeId` is a readonly struct
implementing `INullable` and must not be wrapped in
`System.Nullable<T>`; use `NodeId.Null` and
`IsNull` instead. The type is 2.0-preview only (absent from 1.5.378),
and the only producer is the
tracker itself, which already assigns a non-null `AffectedType`. Per
review feedback the type is
also now a `readonly record struct`, matching `DataValueChange` /
`EventNotification`.

## Tests

Every new regression test was run against a temporarily re-introduced
defect and **fails** there:

| Test | Covers |
|---|---|
|
`CompleteAsyncRetiresOnlyTheCompletedSubscriptionWhenOthersArePendingCreationAsync`
| retire-by-identity (also guards #4114's fix) |
| `CompleteAsyncRemembersRetiredServerIdAfterIdWasResetAsync` |
retired-id history |
|
`PublishWorkerDefersDeletingUnknownSubscriptionWhileCreationIsPendingAsync`
| orphan-delete guard |
| `PublishControllerKeepsResizingAfterWorkersExitAsync` |
publish-controller signal loss |
| `ConcurrentAddAndCompleteRetireOnlyCompletedSubscriptionsAsync` |
parallel add/retire registry integrity |
| `ConcurrentSubscriptionChurnNeverStarvesASubscription` (integration) |
#4113 repro against the reference server |
| 7 × `ModelChangeTrackerTests` namespace-refresh cases | each trigger,
no-trigger, throwing refresher, `null` refresher, ordering |
| `LiveNodeManagerAddRefreshesTheClientNamespaceTable` (integration) |
#4100 repro — times out without the wiring |

`FakeMessageAckQueue` records both the completed id (upstream's
assertions) and the completing
instance (the identity assertion in `MessageProcessorTests`), so neither
side's coverage was lost in
the merge.

Results after merging `origin/master`:

- `Opc.Ua.Client.Tests` — **2119/2119** pass on net10.0; the new
`ModelChange` and
  `SubscriptionManager` fixtures also pass on **net48**.
- `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests` churn + coverage fixtures — **28/28**
(net10.0); churn fixture also
  passes on net48.
- `Opc.Ua.Server.Tests` `NodeManagerLifecycle*` — **49/49** on net10.0;
the new fixture also passes
  on net48.
- No new analyzer warnings; only the three pre-existing `CA1873` hits in
`NodeCacheResolver.cs` and
  `ClassicSubscriptionEngine.cs` (untouched files) remain.

## Documentation

- `docs/ModelChangeTracking.md` — new **Namespace table refresh**
section with the trigger table,
updated `ModelChangedEventArgs` / `ModelChange` snippets, updated
manual-construction snippet, and
  a quick-reference row.
- `docs/NodeManagerRegistration.md` — client-side half of the
**Namespaces** section.

No `docs/migrationguide.md` entry: every changed type is either
`internal` or 2.0-preview-only.

dpse cc4667d0b5 Complete client subscriptions by identity instead of id (#4114) 
# Description

Completes subscriptions by passing `IMessageProcessor` and last known
server subscription id to prevent incorrect subscription removal when
multiple subscriptions with id 0 exist.

## Issue

During calls to `SubscriptionManager.CompleteAsync`, the subscription
manager looked up the subscription entry to remove by the passed
subscription id. But newly created subscriptions not yet having received
an id from the server have their id set to 0, meaning that disposing an
unrelated subscription also with id set to 0 could remove the wrong one
(as there can exist multiple subscriptions with the same zero-id), which
in turn could lead to the id no longer being resolved, and the publish
worker treating it as unknown. Deleted subscriptions also have their id
reset to zero, which could potentially clash as well.

## Fix

- Internal interface `IMessageAckQueue` is changed so that
`CompleteAsync` also takes `IMessageProcessor` as an argument.
- `MessageProcessor` stores the known server id (if set) and passes
itself along with that id to `CompleteAsync`.
- With the `IMessageProcessor` argument, `SubscriptionManager` no longer
needs to look up subscription by id and therefore removes the correct
subscription.
- Additionally, `SubscriptionManager` receives the non-zeroed server id
and no longer enqueues zero-value ids to the subscription history.

Marc Schier 39991bfea1 Harden managed subscription recreation and reapply (#4065) 
## Summary

- Makes managed subscription recreation generation-safe by quiescing
publish ingress, draining in-flight requests, retiring queued messages
and acknowledgements from the old server-side generation, then
recreating monitored items as one serialized operation.
- Exposes `RecreateAsync` on `ISubscription`, rejects recreate/dispose
reentrancy from notification callbacks, preserves the active generation
when server-side deletion fails, and coordinates disposal with an
in-flight recreate.
- Aggregates logical subscription recovery state across partitions and
adds pending/reapply APIs so monitored items can be deterministically
re-created after model or configuration changes.
- Initializes the Quickstarts Boiler logger with `NullLogger` so
simulation updates remain safe before a logger is assigned.
- Keeps the new logical recovery test compatible with net48.

## Review follow-up

- Documents the `RecreateAsync` callback-reentrancy and disposal
exceptions on the public interface.
- Extends generation-retirement coverage with a 1,024-message stale
burst and verifies that only ordered current-generation callbacks are
delivered.
- Proves manager disposal cancels a cancellation-aware operation holding
publish quiescence and waits for the gate to release safely.
- No runtime timeout or blanket channel drain was added: the quiesced
production delegate is internal and cancellation-aware, while
unconditional draining could discard or reorder current-generation
messages arriving through direct ingress.

## Validation

Current head: `edb4a75145c8b03bd03da15eb71327e3bffda091`.

Review follow-up validation on the current head:

- `Opc.Ua.Client` and `Quickstarts.Servers` build successfully for
net472, net48, netstandard2.1, net8.0, net9.0, and net10.0.
- focused `SubscriptionTests` and `SubscriptionManagerTests`: 72 passed
on net10.0 and 72 passed on net48.

The runtime implementation is unchanged from
`7b944ac68616e2d6c0595957c65179f86e78a637`, which passed:

- net10.0 `Opc.Ua.Client.Tests`: 1,974 passed.
- net10.0 `Opc.Ua.Sessions.Tests`: 738 passed, 379 skipped.
- net10.0 `Opc.Ua.Subscriptions.Tests`: 601 passed, 6 skipped.
- focused net48 managed-subscription tests: 122 passed.
- win-x64 Native-AOT publish succeeded; subscription, monitored-item,
and Boiler AOT cohorts: 14 passed.

MrAlaskan 565fc02535 fix(subscription): fail transfer synchronization when deleting stale monitored items (#4031) 
### Summary

This PR makes `MonitoredItemManager.TrySynchronizeHandlesAsync()` treat
`DeleteMonitoredItems` failures as transfer-synchronization failures and
adds a regression test that verifies the client no longer reports
success when the server rejects deletion of stale monitored items.

### Problem

OPC UA Part 4 requires clients to evaluate service results at two
levels: `ResponseHeader.ServiceResult` reports the outcome of the
service call as a whole. `Results[]` reports the outcome of each
individual operation in that service. Even when the service-level result
is `Good`, the service may still have only partially succeeded. The
client therefore still needs to inspect the response payload, especially
the per-operation `StatusCode` values, before concluding that the
requested work actually completed.

In `TrySynchronizeHandlesAsync()`, the transfer/recovery path deletes
monitored items that still exist on the server but no longer exist
locally. Previously, this delete path treated
`DeleteMonitoredItemsAsync()` as successful as long as the call itself
did not throw, and it did not validate `ResponseHeader.ServiceResult`,
`Results[]`, or the associated diagnostic information. As a result, the
client could report transfer synchronization success even when the
server explicitly returned failures for one or more stale monitored
items.

### Changes

- Validate the `DeleteMonitoredItemsAsync()` response inside
`TrySynchronizeHandlesAsync()` instead of treating any non-throwing call
as success.
- Return `false` when the delete operation reports a bad service-level
result or any bad per-item result, so synchronization only succeeds
after stale server-side items are actually removed.
- Add a regression test that verifies `TryCompleteTransferAsync()`
returns `false` when deletion of an extraneous server-side monitored
item is rejected.

MrAlaskan b105eaae02 fix(subscription): do not acknowledge keep-alive future sequence numbers (#4030) 
### Summary

This PR stops the V2 subscription message processor from acknowledging
keep-alive sequence numbers and adds a regression test that verifies
acknowledgements are only queued for notification messages that actually
contain data.

### Problem

According to OPC UA Part 4 publish semantics, a keep-alive
`NotificationMessage` does not acknowledge delivery of a real
notification. Its `SequenceNumber` identifies the next notification
message that will be sent, not a notification payload that the client
has already received.

Previously, `MessageProcessor.ProcessMessageAsync()` correctly treated
`NotificationData.Count == 0` as a keep-alive and intentionally avoided
advancing the data-message deduplication gate. However,
`OnNotificationReceivedAsync()` still unconditionally queued a
`SubscriptionAcknowledgement` for every message, including empty
keep-alives. As a result, the V2 client could acknowledge a future
sequence number before the corresponding data/event notification had
actually been received.

This could produce spurious acknowledgement noise against strict servers
and made the V2 path inconsistent with the existing classic subscription
engine, which only acknowledges messages that contain notification data.

### Changes

- Stop queueing acknowledgements for keep-alive messages in
`MessageProcessor.OnNotificationReceivedAsync()`.
- Preserve the existing keep-alive dispatch path and continue
acknowledging notification messages that carry real data.
- Extend the message processor tests to verify that keep-alives do not
enqueue acknowledgements and that the subsequent real notification still
does.
