Everything written this session that has not been through the device: rounds 43 to 48 (each patch adversarially verified, 43's transient-notice expectation fixed), a partial round 49, the pipeline scripts, the Android Auto design and the icon comparison mock. Also the two harness changes that were never A/B'd — adaptive waits, which may only shorten a declared wait and never lengthen it, and a ship that runs the mock walk and the deploy at the same time. The A/B and its 255-step baseline are in handoff/tools; main stays at what the phone has actually walked.

### What each walk actually proves
|
||
|
||
The two step lists are not the same test, and which is which had never been
|
||
written down. The mock walk is the bigger one (252 named steps) and the only
|
||
one that can arm a failure, turn the phone over or answer as a fresh install.
|
||
The device walk (121 named steps, up from 88) is the smaller one and the only
|
||
one that touches a real core, a real library, a real audio thread and the
|
||
system underneath them. The gap between them is where this list lives.
|
||
|
||
Writing it down turned up four phone steps — `library-ambience`, `queue`,
|
||
`lyrics` and `community` — that were named, screenshotted, and asserted
|
||
against nothing at all: the driver reads `expect[s.name] ? expect[s.name](info)
|
||
: true`, so a missing key in `PHONE_EXPECT` is a silent pass, and all four had
|
||
one. They have expectations now.
|
||
|
||
**Proven on the device.** Boot and its census; playback out of the real
|
||
library; the ambience following a real cover — the accent is in the still and
|
||
asserted by neither walk; the artwork viewer; the queue reordered, and a queue
|
||
row's sheet opened; the lyrics face, the nudge, the per-track auto-sync
|
||
switch, the tap room and the real-DSP estimate (all of it discarded); a reload
|
||
that keeps the audio thread; a library track's own sheet, off a real path; the
|
||
Library's shape, its sort and every one of its five tabs; Search and its
|
||
recents; a playlist made, filled, dragged, a row removed and put back by Undo,
|
||
filtered and deleted; four import doors — including the folder door on a real
|
||
folder, and two of their system pickers dismissed with BACK — and the review's
|
||
Keep-unresolved switch; the share-sheet intent; six of You's switches and
|
||
chips written to the real config and read back out of it, then put back —
|
||
volume normalization, word-by-word fill, the upload slots, the streaming
|
||
ceiling, the embedded-cover size and the stream cache's retention — and the
|
||
listening port both ways and a refused one; the sleep timer; the Wi-Fi-only
|
||
guard; the shade's notice read back out of `dumpsys notification`; contacts
|
||
read over real IPC; a cold artist page, its ⋯, the whole-discography page and
|
||
its A–Z; the first-run preview with `setupWrites` at 0; eleven raw backend
|
||
strings through `__ss.say`; and a refused transfer's sentence.
|
||
|
||
Then, after the step loop, seven things the mock cannot do at all: a
|
||
force-stop and the paused restore that follows it (waited out past the
|
||
thirteen-second FGS-kill window), the position restored, playback resumed, the
|
||
system media session and its ownership, media keys, ten seconds in the
|
||
background with the position still advancing, and SoulStream's own mixer
|
||
underruns.
|
||
|
||
One block in the phone walk pulls bytes, and only when the app is signed in:
|
||
the trailing network block types `--query` into Search, streams a peer's copy
|
||
into the stream cache, and browses the raw peers and a share. Nothing else in
|
||
either list downloads, joins, sends or signs in.
|
||
|
||
**Mock-only, and why** (178 named steps). These are the reasons rather than a
|
||
partition: a step can sit under more than one of them, and the last bullet is
|
||
the only one that says a step could move and has not.
|
||
|
||
- *Needs `__ssMock`* — the nine weather steps and the fifteen failure faces.
|
||
That object is the mock library's own door and does not exist in a real
|
||
build. The SENTENCES those screens print are proven on the device anyway, by
|
||
`trouble-words` and `trouble-xfer`; the screens that carry them are not.
|
||
- *Needs a fresh install* — the ten `fresh-*` steps. On the device only the
|
||
preview door is walked, and it writes nothing.
|
||
- *Needs a viewport override* — the nine landscape and portrait steps. A
|
||
`view` step on the phone walk is a deliberate failure, because a real
|
||
device's orientation is not the harness's to set, so the sideways layout has
|
||
never been seen on a device at all.
|
||
- *Needs the dev flavour* — `diag` and `diag-back`. `devBuild` is
|
||
`import.meta.env.DEV` or the mock key, and the embedded build Kyle carries
|
||
reads false, so the row is not there to tap.
|
||
- *Would download, save or rewrite his files* — the catalog, peer, browse and
|
||
Save steps, the cover re-fetch, the portrait refresh, chosen and pasted
|
||
lyrics, a saved sync, the vocal-reduced copy, a hero photo set.
|
||
- *Would join, send or sign in* — rooms and their users, buddies, the contact
|
||
editor, the taste chips, a user looked up.
|
||
- *Would change what is playing* — `queue-removed` and `queue-moved-up`. The
|
||
device opens that sheet and reads it; it does not tap a row in it.
|
||
- *Destroys his data* — `history-confirm` and `history-cleared`. Never on his
|
||
phone.
|
||
- *Structurally empty on this phone* — Home's feed sections and the Gaps
|
||
shelf. Follows live in the library folder and the phone's own folder starts
|
||
without any, so on the device `gaps` can only be asked to render and to stay
|
||
quiet.
|
||
- *No reason but time* — not every remaining step has a reason above it.
|
||
These would be safe on the device and simply have not been moved: the
|
||
sheet's own Move-up and Move-down rows and a drag refused under a filter
|
||
(all three on the walk's own playlist), rename, unpin, `wifi-off`, the
|
||
empty search and the did-you-mean pair (both wanting a query his own
|
||
library can answer for), and the several `-again` steps that only put a
|
||
screen back. This round stopped where it stopped.
|
||
|
||
**Conditional on the device.** Six of the new steps pass vacuously when his
|
||
own data cannot produce the condition, and are named here so they do not
|
||
become the next generation of silent passes: `gaps` (no follows),
|
||
`queue-row-sheet` (nothing after the walked track), `playlist-drag-held` and
|
||
the drag-refusal clause of `playlist-filter` (both need a playlist longer than
|
||
one row — a one-track record makes a one-row playlist, and `reorder.js`
|
||
refuses to lift a list that short), `import-keep-off` (a paste that resolved
|
||
completely), and `you-keep` (the cache already set to Forever, which the step
|
||
will not move because coming back writes the flag and not the number). The row
|
||
count `playlist-row-sheet` stashes is what keeps the rest of that block from
|
||
passing on a probe that read nothing.
|
||
|
||
**Needs a person.** A live room joined and a message sent; a real Save over
|
||
cellular with the Wi-Fi switch on; the lock-screen card (`--lockscreen` takes
|
||
that still and asserts nothing about it); the first real export written
|
||
through Android's create-document sheet, which the walk only ever dismisses
|
||
with BACK; the phone physically turned sideways; and a genuine first run on a
|
||
device that has never had the app.
