A converted outline whose seam closes within the admitted 1e-6 gap could
only be entered at its seam: entered anywhere else, the arc after the
seam started off its own circle and every emission was refused as an
inconsistent radius. The search then spent its whole budget on that
part and the plate never planned. Emission now bridges the gap with a
straight move and cuts the arc as drawn; the verifier already admits
that slack. An entry on the seam vertex is left as before.
Each prefix of a part re-checked its earlier contours' leads against
every other part's material. One search now remembers each verdict by
the lead curve's exact bits and the material's reference, charging the
same native query budget; replay never uses it. On the reported plate
the memo alone gives a byte-identical result in 57 s instead of 12 min 47 s;
with the seam fix the plate plans Ready in about 17 s.

The cut simulation treated Display-layer contour moves (what cutting
strategies emit) as head-up travel, so plates with assigned lead-ins were
timed as rapids. They now cut, matching the verifier and posts, and
suppressed moves are left out.
Cut time now follows the CI Fiber post: closed clockwise contours and
cut-offs take an outside feed, other contours a hole feed, and etch-only
contours can be skipped like its SkipScribe default. The settings are
shared by Calculate Cut Time and the simulator, and plate/nest times now
always come from the simulation.

A Grbl-style lookahead planner re-times the cut simulation with
trapezoidal acceleration, junction-deviation corner speeds and a
centripetal cap on arcs. Machines gain cut/rapid acceleration and corner
deviation in Machine Configuration, with placeholder values until the
controller's are entered. The simulator and Calculate Cut Time pick the
machine (or full speed), and the simulator shows the live head speed.

Plate > Simulate Cutting replays the active plate in cutting order: the

play/pause, scrubbing, 1x-250x speed, step and part/cutout jumps. Parts

A hole can now be declared a tabbed cutout in the CAD Converter: pick a
circle or any edge of a closed hole, set the tab count and width, and drag
the tabs around the hole. The definition persists on the drawing and in the
nest file, and stays editable from the source entities.
The builder replaces the hole with open cut pieces and uncut spans on a new
Tab layer. Tabs are material, so area, nesting and overlap checks still see
a closed hole, but they are never cut. Plan Cutting and Assign Lead-ins cut
each piece from the slug with the internal lead-in and no lead-out. A lead
that would reach back over a tab is mirrored, and an arc lead onto an arc
pierces straight in. Planning accounts for each span between tabs and runs
the open-cut proof, so its own tabbed cutouts certify; tabs followed by a
lead-out are still refused. Pre-post review flags programs that still
contain tab motions.

A cutout cut in several pieces around tabs, as PEP programs often are, made
pre-post review report every piece's lead-out and the part's open fragments
as incomplete. Review now proves such open cuts release nothing: within the
part they touch other cuts only at their own ends and form no loop (each
closed contour with its leads counting as one point), and leads at open ends
stay out of the gap beyond them. Anything else stays incomplete. Plan Cutting
keeps refusing to certify its own tabs followed by a lead-out.

Breakoffs are now picked by their joining line, default to the smaller side as scrap
(flippable), and cut that line between tabs on a new Break layer instead of slots.
Plan Cutting and Assign Lead-ins enter each cut from the scrap with the nest's internal
lead-in, or pierce on the line without one; checks treat break cuts as intentional open
cuts that are not material.

Posting review now proves containment exactly as the cutting planner does
(shared NestedPartContainment) and warns when a nested part is cut after its
host (NestedCutOrder) or when a host's hole lead or the nested part's lead
meets the other's material (NestedLead), including subprogram hole poses.
Ambiguous containment is incomplete, never clear; fixed-lead motions are not
reported twice. A committed cutout preview warns until Plan Cutting cuts the
insert first.

Assign Lead-ins (LeadInAssigner) now leaves every unlocked part with active
drawing pins unchanged and returns those parts, so it never overwrites a pin
with the plate's settings; the desktop names them ("N parts kept their
drawing lead-ins (plate P: parts ...); use Plan Cutting to apply their
drawing pins."). Parts without pins, with pins switched off, or locked are
assigned or skipped exactly as before.
The pre-post review now covers drawing pins. A part with active pins whose
placed program does not cut each pinned contour exactly as the pin's own
emission (re-emitted with the part's cutting settings and matched motion for
motion) warns "Drawing pins not applied", as do locked lead-ins overriding
pins and a pin that no longer matches the geometry; pins switched off are
not reported. The contours that are cut as pinned join locked programs in
the fixed-lead re-check against every part's clean material, and fixed
leads are now also checked against active clamps (Plan Cutting itself does
not model clamps).
AGENTS.md records the fixed-emission safeguard and the characterization
digests.

Capture now honours a placement's pins only while they are active: a part
with DrawingPinsOff plans from the plate settings with no warning (D1's
per-part escape hatch), and Part.HasActiveDrawingPins is the shared test.
A pinned part is regenerated like any unlocked part whatever lead-ins or
settings it carried. A locked part with active pins keeps its exact program
and warns "Locked lead-ins override drawing pins on part N; Clear Lead-ins
to apply the pins." instead of being refused; an unlocked part a caller left
ineligible warns that its pins are not applied.
Apply's freshness record now holds each drawing's pin list (reference and an
explicit StateFingerprint of every pin's point, leads and tab) and each
part's pins-off flag, so editing either after capture returns Stale. The
fingerprint writer is shared between settings and pins; a reflection test
pins ContourCutPin's public surface to what the fingerprint covers.

PreparedContours.Capture(program, parameters, pins) takes CutPinResolver
results for the same contours and fixes every resolved pin's contour: its
one and only entry is the pin's point, and it is emitted through the
existing emitter with the pin's own lead-in, lead-out and tab (angle
rounding off, so the entry never moves). Every catalogue returns the pinned
entry alone and emission refuses any other entry for that contour, so no
search path can relocate it. The certified tab size is the pinned outside's
own, so a pinned tab gap is genuine and replay certifies it. Unpinned
contours keep the shared settings and automatic selection; without pins the
existing preparation is untouched (5.1 digests unchanged).
Capture now resolves a regenerated part's drawing pins. A pin that does not
resolve (not on a contour, on several, sharing one, or unplaceable) is never
guessed: its contour stays automatic and the plate gets a FixedLead warning
naming the pin, making the proposal UNVERIFIED. A tab pinned on an internal
contour cannot be cut as pinned (only the outside is tabbed) and warns the
same way. Pins-off, locked parts with pins and freshness follow in 5.4.

D1a (user, 2026-10-14): one locked cutout must not refuse the whole layout.
With confirmed parameters a locked program is now a fixed emission, accepted
as given. The replay checker and the lead validator take a per-motion owner:
a violation inside the fixed emission (a lead meeting another part's or its
own material, a rapid inside the locked program crossing a cut contour, an
uncertifiable tab gap or a partial/reversed/retraced cut) is recorded apart
instead of failing the candidate. The search never rejects or learns an order
rule from them, so fixed emissions never steer it; the planner's rapid into
the locked program and every regenerated lead keep every strict check.
Replay turns those violations into typed FixedLead findings that name the
part, contour and the part hit. A plate whose only findings are these is
BestEffort with IndependentlyReplayed set: never Ready, applicable only with
the per-proposal acceptance, and CuttingPlanService.Apply still rejects it.
Overlap, unreadable programs, stale input and cancellation still block, and
unlocked programs a caller left ineligible and the no-parameter route keep
refusing as before.
Pre-post review now re-checks locked leads against every part's clean
material, so the same violations reappear before posting.
Existing tests that encoded the old locked refusal now assert the warning;
two batch tests that used a locked crossing as their hard block use an
overlap instead. The 5.1 digests are unchanged.

A library drawing can say how individual contours must be cut. A
`ContourCutPin` holds the entry point in the drawing's source frame plus
the lead-in, lead-out and optional tab used there; `Drawing.CutPins`
lists them. Nothing plans with pins yet (Slice 5).
- Pins accept only the exact built-in lead and tab types, copied through
the same owned copiers the planner uses, so a pin cannot carry a type
the emitter would not certify. Properties return copies: the pin is
immutable.
- A tab requires no lead-out, because the planner refuses a lead-out
after an open contour.
- The source frame is the frame of the source entities. It does not move
when BuildDrawing re-origins the program at its first rapid, so pins
survive converter edits that change Source.Offset.
`CutPinResolver` maps pins to (contour ordinal, entity ordinal, local
point) for a placement rotation, using the same `PreparedContours`
ordinals Plan Cutting will use. It never guesses: a pin must lie within
the contour closure tolerance of exactly one contour that no other pin
claims, otherwise it is reported unresolved with a typed reason. A
drawing program rotated in place (a canonical copy) is not the source
frame and resolves nothing; canonical copies and split pieces carry no
pins.

A nominal ring may close within NominalContourClosure.Tolerance, and replay
already carried that admitted gap as slack when bridging it shortens the cut.
When the gap instead lies across the following edge, the emitted path starts
that edge at the ring's end point, so the cut is longer by the gap. Two checks
still compared at the exact epsilon and refused it as "invalid input":
- the retrace guard rejected any surplus length beyond 1e-8;
- Follows matched the edge's leftover sliver against the next nominal entity
and failed its direction check.
Both now use the ring's admitted slack, the same bound the shortfall and the
nominal side of Follows already use. Exactly closed rings keep the epsilon, and
a second circuit still exceeds the slack by a whole ring.
A0227-08's sprocket outline misses its start by 1e-6 and refused planning in
both keep-order and reorder modes; it now plans Ready and applies.

Nests converted from another CAM system carry its seam overcut inside the
clean contour: the last cut runs on past the contour's own start along its
first cut, then a straight jog returns to the start. The ring then touches
itself at its seam, so neither the cutting planner nor the overlap analyzer
could certify it and the whole plate refused.
SeamOvercut recognizes exactly that shape (same line, or same circle and
direction) and trims it from an owned copy; the retraced tail encloses no
area, so material is unchanged and the drawing is never edited. Any other
self-contact still refuses. Arcs of one circle whose centers were each derived
from their own endpoints agree only within Epsilon, so their spans are now
compared at the seam tolerance: shared spans still refuse as overlap, while
arcs that only meet at a joint or lie apart no longer do.
Plates with parts nested in other parts' cutouts then failed to route, since
the host is cut last and every straight approach from the middle of a crowded
cutout crosses a finished neighbour. CuttingNestedOrder tours each host's
inner parts as one run ending beside the host's own contours, hosts follow
the parts beside them, and learned rules still win. Outside entries are
ordered by clear sight lines to the next cut, the look-ahead toward a host is
its nearest contour point rather than its centre, a cutout containing the
arrival point is routed from that point, and a pass that teaches an order
rule ends the round instead of repeating the blocked approach.
Tests: SeamOvercutTests and CuttingNestedOrderTests; the cutting-planning,
diagnostics and overlap tests in OpenNest.Tests pass (1023 passed, 6 skipped).

Capture and preparation agree that a nominal contour may close within
NominalContourClosure.Tolerance inclusively, which converted drawings rely on:
the sampled production corpus carries vertex gaps up to 1e-6. Replay
verification still compared those rings at the exact geometry epsilon, so the
one joint a rotated tool path legitimately bridges refused the whole plate
after the search had already spent its budget.
Census of 91 plates from 60 stored nests: every searched plate containing such
a seam refused with contour-accounting (4 plates, 76.5s of wasted search, worst
71.7s for one 11-part plate), and none of the 42 ready plates had one. Replay
now carries that same admitted endpoint gap as positional and length slack for
the affected ring only. Direction sign, coverage order, retrace detection, ring
counting and selected-emission binding keep the exact epsilon, and capture's
closure admission is unchanged.
With the fix the census yields 45 ready plates instead of 42, no plate changed
any other way, and expansion counts are identical wherever status matched.
P260805-01's 16-part plate plans in 0.76s rather than refusing after 4,129
expansions.
Tests: SeamClosureReplayTests covers seams of 0, 5e-7 and 1e-6 plus four
accounting faults (missing edge, reversed edge, interior shift beyond the
admitted seam, second circuit) that must still refuse, and the beyond-tolerance
capture refusal. OpenNest.Tests 3751, OpenNest.Engine.Tests 690 and
OpenNest.IO.Tests 79 pass; Windows-only projects cannot build on Linux.
EmitCandidateForValidation emits exactly one owned contour with its
normal lead-in and lead-out and its ORIGINAL contour type — the
perimeter keeps External even with no holes before it — through a small
shared EmitChosenContours seam, so a perimeter candidate's emitted leads
can be validated before the hole choices exist. The probe is a throwaway
program: never installed on a Part, never a complete plan. Normal Emit
and EmitPrefix keep the perimeter-last gate untouched (still throwing
for Emit([perimeter]) on a holed part); foreign and re-stamped choices
still fail ownership/geometry validation and source shapes/settings are
never used directly. Differential tests pin per-contour block fidelity
(External-vs-hole lead geometry, five lead styles, two hole
choice/orders, scribes once, reversed winding, rotated capture, circle
rounding/clamping without cross-contour state) — contour lead geometry
is choice-independent, only absolute accumulated coordinates drift by
ulps with program head.
Pure deterministic ordering of the automatic catalogue: classify each
point by its nearest bounding-rectangle side(s) with the preparation
tolerance (a corner belongs to two sides), choose the facing side pair
from the look-ahead target against the centre (right/left and top/bottom
per the source plan), then order by matched facing sides descending,
rank tier ascending (corner, midpoint/tangent peer tier, fallbacks),
then arrival->entry + entry->target travel, then the stable geometric
key. Without a target (last part) the tier leads and distance to the
arrival breaks ties — never the plate origin. The input list is never
mutated, no candidates are added, no cap is applied and entity order is
never the tie-break; reversed and cyclically reindexed drawings rank to
the identical geometric order.
AutomaticEntryCandidatesWithFallbacks completes the uncapped catalogue
with tier-3 fallbacks after the preferred points: native arc midpoints,
the eight compass points of a whole circle (a pure-circle contour is now
usable instead of refusing), near-convex-corner points on each incident
straight edge back from the corner by 2 x the applicable lead-in length
using the emitter's own SelectLeadIn semantics (non-length lead-in styles
contribute 0 and the fallback is omitted, never approximated), and the
exact target-facing closest point toward the caller's look-ahead. Every
fallback runs through the same reflex/cusp exclusion — a raw closest
point or an inset landing on a forbidden inside corner is dropped — and
the same geometric duplicate merge; short edges omit an out-of-segment
inset by projection parameter instead of extrapolating. No ranking and
no lead-safety verdict yet.
Internal PreparedContours.AutomaticEntryCandidates builds the uncapped
preferred start catalogue per contour from the contour's own winding:
convex corners, then straight-edge midpoints, then line/arc tangent
joints, deduplicated geometrically with the preparation epsilon (the
most preferred metadata wins at equal points). Reflex and cusp vertices,
collinear splits and circles are never enumerated for automatic placement;
hole slugs classify from their own travel. Manual Entry/ClosestEntry and
the legacy Entries API are unchanged; emission wiring comes in S09.
Expose TryClassifyAutomaticStartCorner: an internal read-only query over
the emitter's existing TryGetCorner/ClassifyCorner with the same winding
derivation EmitContour uses, so start-point planning can prefer convex
corners without copying tangent math or touching lead generation. Corner-
kind characterization covers convex, reflex, tangent-smooth and cusp
vertices from either adjacent edge, both windings, under rotation, and
rejects midpoints and open contours.
The second delta review compared the filtered checks with the previous
implementation on 5,400 generated cases. Rapid checks matched in every
case, but 114 lead checks differed: a long lead passing a small circle
or arc well over 0.001 away was reported clear, while the native
line/circle query, through rounding in its squared terms, reports a
contact there. A coordinate limit and a fixed margin cannot bound that
cancellation.
Lead checks therefore examine every other part's material again,
exactly as before the filter; LeadMaterialSnapshot no longer keeps an
extent. Rapid checks, including the pre-post review's, keep skipping
completed contours more than 0.001 clear of the rapid. The 900000-long
lead beside a radius-0.0001 circle is a regression test.
Planning a dense 144-part grid now takes about 19 s again (lead checks
dominate); a new part order is still found where the old search gave
up.
The delta review found two more ways the extent filter could skip a
check a native query would have flagged:
- Native line intersections accept points 0.00001 outside each line's
bounding box, so a lead 0.000003 from another part touched it while
their extents were 0.000003 apart, beyond the 1e-6 margin.
- Around a circle of radius 5e11, rounding let the native query count
a rapid at x = -0.00001 as touching although the circle's extent
started at x = 0; the margin scaled only with the rapid's own size.
Rather than chase each tolerance, the filter now has one narrow rule:
Extent.IsClearOf skips only when both extents are finite, lie within
1e6 and are more than 0.001 apart on some axis. 0.001 is ten times the
widest absolute band of any native contact query (the 0.00001 box
allowance and the 0.0001 contact reach of tiny arcs), and within 1e6
rounding stays far below it. Larger geometry is always checked in
full, as before the filter. Planning speed is unchanged (144-part grid
about 0.5-0.8 s).
All three reproductions are regression tests, with a test of the rule
itself.
Every lead was checked against every placed part's material and every
rapid against every completed contour, so each check cost O(parts) and
planning a plate cost O(parts^2). Lead checks were 88% of planning time
on a 144-part grid.
LeadMaterialSnapshot and each completed contour now keep a conservative
extent (an arc counts as its whole supporting circle). A lead or rapid
skips material or a contour only when the extents are farther apart
than 1e-6 x (1 + coordinate size), far above the contact tolerance, so
results are unchanged: anything touching or closer still gets the full
native check. The rapid filter also applies to pre-post verification,
which shares ReleasedContourState.
New tests cover the cases just inside the skip: an arc lead and a
completed arc whose bulge reaches past their endpoints, and a lead and
a rapid that only touch another part's extent.
1b422ef read absolute-mode hole subprograms by converting an
incremental-mode copy of every clean program. Rebuilding absolute
endpoints from incremental deltas is not exact: after a rapid at
1e12 a 1x10 rectangle moved by about 2.4e-5 and a real 2e-5 overlap
was reported clear, in the overlap overlay and pre-post verification
as well as Plan Cutting.
Convert programs directly again, which reads absolute coordinates
exactly, and refuse an absolute-mode subprogram as an incomplete
check instead: the converter adds a call's frame offset to
incremental moves only, so it would read such a hole at its frame
origin. OpenNest writes hole subprograms in incremental mode. The
null-list and unknown-instruction refusals from 1b422ef stay, and
CopyForGeometry is private to the planner again.
PlateOverlapAnalyzer converted clean programs directly with
ConvertProgram.ToGeometry, which adds call offsets only to
incremental moves, so holes in absolute-mode subprograms were read at
their frame origin. A square with two absolute holes reported
"Native material contours cross or touch", and the Plan Cutting
overlap gate blocked it while the incremental twin passed. Convert an
owned incremental-mode copy instead (PreparedContours.CopyForGeometry,
now internal, the same normalization the cutting planner uses).
The analyzer also threw on a program whose Codes list was null and
cast or cloned instructions it does not know. It now refuses a
missing list and anything other than the exact built-in instruction
types as an incomplete check, before any copy or conversion runs.
Pre-post verification and the plate overlap overlay share this path.
The second delta review found four more false-equal classes in the
general reflective fingerprint, all reachable only through custom
settings subclasses: cycle markers that dropped the target ancestor,
display-formatted DateTime/DateTimeOffset, ignored dictionary and set
comparers, and arrays flattened without their dimensions. Safe arrays of
OpenNest elements were also newly refused. Every repair of the generic
traversal opened another such case.
Settings capture now supports exactly the types regeneration already
accepts (OwnedCuttingParameters): CuttingParameters, SequenceParameters,
AssignmentParameters and the built-in lead-in, lead-out and tab types.
Each member is written explicitly, doubles by bit pattern with invariant
numerals and text length-prefixed. Every object's runtime type is checked
before any member is read, so no other type's code runs. A plate-scoped
request whose part or plate settings contain any other type, subclasses
included, is UnsupportedGeometry at capture instead of a Ready plan that
can never apply. A nested settings object replaced by such a type after
capture makes Apply Stale. Detached part-list requests are unaffected.
Coverage tests fail when a supported type gains a property or field the
fingerprint does not write, or when a new built-in lead or tab type is
added without fingerprint support.
Delta review found three Important defects and a Minor one in the
settings fingerprint that closed the first freshness gap:
- Accepted settings state was silently omitted: dictionary entries render
as KeyValuePair structs whose Key/Value are properties, property-backed
custom structs contribute no public fields, and graphs past the depth
limit wrote a constant marker, so all three edits fingerprinted equal
and a changed plate still applied.
- Reading public properties executed arbitrary getters, so a capture
documented as read-only could mutate live settings (Bump => ++Kerf).
- An enumerable settings member was enumerated at Apply, where its
enumerator could throw out of the public commit call.
- Fingerprint text used ambient-culture interpolation, so an invariant
capture compared unequal under a digit-substituting culture.
Traversal is now a closed boundary. OpenNest types render their public
readable properties and fields. Foreign types render only declared
instance fields, which include auto-property backing fields, because a
field read executes no code. Only arrays and List/Dictionary/HashSet/
KeyValuePair are enumerated, with insertion-ordered containers sorted;
other enumerables, delegates and unrepresentable shapes refuse to an
Invalid marker that never compares equal, so refused state is Stale
rather than silently equal. Doubles fingerprint by bit pattern rendered
with invariant formatting, and depth or budget overflow refuses instead
of truncating. A reference already on the path renders as a cycle
marker; built-in lead and tab objects reference settings back.
Capture stores refusals as-is, so a plate with uncaptureable settings
stays plannable and every commit against it reports Stale without
re-reading live state, and a fingerprint that fails on re-read is
likewise Stale, never an exception.
Review of the atomic Apply found two commit-boundary gaps:
- The plan installer checked only root program references, so a public
caller could install a payload whose subprograms alias another live
(even locked) part's program, or share settings between parts. The
installer and its payload types are now internal; CuttingPlanService.Apply,
which installs owned copies of independently replayed proposals, is the
only public path.
- A part placed on two plates in one scope was planned once per plate; one
plate's install replaced the program the other plate verified as fixed.
A part repeated anywhere in the scope is now invalid input.
Review of the atomic Apply found freshness gaps:
- A drawing's cutoff classification decides lead, material, obstacle and
dependency treatment but was not captured; changing it after planning
still applied the old proposal.
- Part and plate cutting settings were compared by reference only, so an
in-place edit after capture applied (and a regenerated part overwrote
it); plate settings were not compared at all. Settings are now captured
as an exact public-state fingerprint.
- A live program whose instruction list was set to null made Apply throw
instead of returning Stale, and a respelled key in a case-insensitive
binding dictionary compared equal.
Caller-confirmed planning settings remain planning input: editing them
after capture does not stale the plan and does not leak into the result.
The cutting planner now accepts cutoffs on plate-scoped requests and
plans whole-part prerequisites captured from owned values:
- A cutoff precedes every part its nominal span crosses, using the same
rule and drawing-reference matching as automatic sequencing; a cutoff
without a definition precedes every part. Cutoffs stay fixed programs,
need no lead-in and never become rapid obstacles; rapids into and out
of them are still checked.
- A part proven, on native clean material, to lie inside a cutout of
another part precedes that host. Touching or crossing boundaries are
ambiguous and refuse; a part in a concave pocket has no dependency.
- Both searches only expand ready parts, a preserved order that breaks a
prerequisite is a constraint conflict, and final replay rechecks the
captured prerequisites instead of trusting the search.
Plate-scoped cutting plan requests now record the plate's exact state at
capture, and CuttingPlanService.Apply installs Ready, replayed proposals
for a whole scope at once:
- Any change after capture (order, pose bits, program reference or
in-place content, drawing program, lock/lead-in flags, settings,
quantity, size, quadrant or cutoff definitions) returns Stale with
nothing changed.
- Order changes without PartAdded/PartRemoved, so drawing quantities and
sentinel plates are untouched; ObservableList.Reorder exposes the same
operation and Plate.PartsReordered is raised once per changed plate.
- Regenerated parts receive owned copies of the replayed program and of
the settings captured with the request; fixed programs stay in place.
- An install failure restores every plate exactly; an observer failure
after publication is reported as a refresh error, not a rollback.
A tab trims the perimeter short of its entry, but the lead-out was still
generated from the nominal entry point. An arc lead-out therefore started
off its own radius (ExecutionMotionReader rejected it as inconsistent), and
a line lead-out ran diagonally back toward the entry.
Every lead-out style on a tabbed perimeter now leaves from the trimmed
cut's actual end, on that entity's normal, so arcs are tangent and the tab
gap stays uncut. Untabbed contours and the corner run-out rules are
unchanged. Malformed legacy output is still refused, never refit.
Red before the fix: the three tabbed arc cases threw "Arc has zero or
inconsistent radius" and the line case ended at y=5 instead of 4.8. Keeping
the entry's normal at the actual end fails the curved-perimeter case.
Quality review of 50884da found the unshown RichTextBox oracle compared
cached CRLF text against the highlighted editor's native LF-normalized
text, which would fail on first Windows execution. Compare generated
text with normalized line endings on both sides instead, capture the
status label and preview state inside the ProgramChanged handler to
prove fallback-before-notify ordering, document the HighlightSpan
UTF-16 and rule-index contract, and pin the null-text argument check.
