RUST.md's P0 box gets Iris's first real-phone report (no crash) and the
four defects it found (glyph-wipe-on-first-touch, missing bold glyphs,
text far too small, status-bar inset not applied), what was fixed and
how it was verified on the emulator, and what's still open (item 1's
root cause, and the top-row height anomaly noted in the last commit).
IRIS_TODO.md gets a new "From the phone, 2026-09-06" section for the two
items explicitly deferred to a follow-up agent: no scroll momentum/fling,
and occasional jitter scrolling down.
IRIS.md gets the public-API entry for TextData's bundled fonts/
font_diagnostics, UiRenderNode::new/resize's new window_size parameter,
AndroidUiState::content_scale, AndroidAppState::on_insets_changed, and
iris_core::WgpuErrorLog.

UiRenderNode::new used to let a wgpu validation error reach the default
uncaptured-error handler and panic, which is what aborted the P0 bench APK
on Iris's phone in AndroidRenderer::new with only "wgpu error: Validation
Error" surviving into the truncated crash report. It now wraps creation in
wgpu error scopes and returns Result<Self, String>; the Android backend
turns a failure into the adapter's identity, the limits/downlevel flags a
layout validates against, and wgpu's own error chain, logged as one logcat
line and shown on screen (IrisView.showRendererError) instead of crashing.
Auditing every bind-group-layout entry against wgpu-core's own validation
source names the likely cause: masks_layout's move_offsets storage buffer
is visible to the vertex stage, which Vulkan grants unconditionally but
GLES gates on the driver's own vertex-stage SSBO support -- and the
delivered APK was built with force-gles, a flag meant only to force the
*emulator* onto GLES for one frame-time measurement, that build-apk.sh's
default feature list applied to every arm64 build regardless of target.
Its default no longer includes force-gles.
Testing the diagnostic (by inducing an artificial validation error) also
found and fixed a real reentrancy bug: calling Activity.setContentView
synchronously from inside a ViewPeer callback re-enters the same peer's
RefCell borrow through onFocusChanged, aborting with "RefCell already
borrowed". Deferred through the same push_dynamic_deferred_callback
mechanism raise_if_enabled already uses.
Full audit, verification, and the named hypothesis are in RUST.md's P0
box ("iris bench crash on the phone, 2026-09-06"); the API change is in
IRIS.md. Nobody on this session has the phone, so this is unconfirmed
against real hardware -- the point of (1) is that the next run says so
either way.

RUST.md's P0 box gets the fix, the before/after streaming-phase numbers
(with their caveats), the build-apk.sh/run-bench.sh scripts, and what the
dropout-fix pass's three remaining verifications are blocked on (the
sandbox ai-server currently fails to build, unrelated to this change).
IRIS.md gets the List::replace_back/clear and TranscriptScreen::apply
API entries. AGENTS.md's rigs section gets one sentence on each script.

RUST.md's P0 box gets the iris-half account: the fixture, the scroll/stream
mechanism, the report fields, build commands (all clean), packaging (no
cargo xtask apk yet, so a new Gradle release build type on top of cargo
ndk), and the emulator smoke run's report next to Compose's own. Used a
second, differently-named AVD rather than contend with the session already
on this checkout's own emulator.
DECISIONS.md's P0 entry gets a matching summary bullet. IRIS.md records
AndroidAppState::platform_ready. IRIS_TODO.md notes the one gap found:
no read-only selectable text primitive, so the bench report's TextEdit
picks up a keyboard on tap it has nothing to type into.

adapter.request_device asked for Limits::default(), which requests
desktop-tier compute-shader limits unconditionally even though nothing in
iris/iris-core creates a ComputePipeline or writes a @compute stage. That
crashed device creation outright on a downlevel GL adapter reporting
OpenGL ES 3.0 (no compute at all) -- the Android emulator's
EMU_GPU=software/force-gles path, and any real GLES-3.0-only device.
New iris_core::device_limits(), shared by both platform backends, zeros
exactly the six max_compute_* fields rather than switching to a downlevel
Limits preset -- downlevel_webgl2_defaults() also zeros
max_storage_buffers_per_shader_stage, which shader.wgsl's vertex stage
needs. rigs/gpu-probe's own mirrored limits were updated to match.
Not verified against the actual SwiftShader-ES-3.0 crash on-device this
pass: the cold boot needed would have force-restarted this checkout's
emulator while another session had its own app running on it.

Root-caused via temporary logcat tracing (touch events, DragArbiter state,
Selection::drag dispatch), reproduced against a real sandbox session: a
gesture's ACTION_DOWN can land on a row's own padding/gap or its header,
which CursorSense has no sensor over, so the widget that ends up handling
the gesture only ever sees Pressing frames and DragArbiter never gets
press_start -- leaving it stuck in Idle (answers Undecided forever) for the
rest of that gesture. Not the previously-suspected coalesced first
ACTION_MOVE, which is now ruled out.
DragArbiter::is_idle() lets Selection::drag notice a Pressing frame with
no matching press_start and recover the press there instead. Four new unit
tests, one of which fails on the pre-fix code.

Takes the -gpu host pair the earlier software-mode comparison flagged as
missing. Under real GPU rendering (--features force-gles: the default
Vulkan backend has no adapter at all under plain host-GPU boot, confirmed
by the exact wgpu error), iris's median frame (15.0ms) is faster than
Compose's (20.0ms) on the same session content -- the opposite shape from
the software-mode table. The new redraw-to-submit/submit-to-present split
shows iris's own CPU work is a median 0.2ms per frame; almost the whole
frame is time handing off to the driver, consistent with (but not proof
of) the software-mode gap being mostly SwiftShader's CPU rasterisation
cost rather than iris-specific slowness.
A same-mode software force-gles run, meant to isolate the backend, hit a
third distinct crash instead (SwiftShader's GL path reports itself as
OpenGL ES 3.0, which has no compute shaders, and iris's device request
assumes them unconditionally) -- real scope to fix, not done here, so the
software-mode question stays open. A real intermittent touch-scroll
dropout was also reproduced (six consecutive swipes produced zero
redraws while taps kept working; an identical retry then succeeded) and
is not explained. The idle-redraw and virtualised-culling findings from
the software-mode pass were confirmed to hold under real GPU rendering
too.
DECISIONS.md's DEFERRED item carries the updated table; the iris-vs-
Masonry choice itself is still Iris's to make. IRIS.md records the
FrameReport::record_split/FrameStats::cpu_p50/gpu_wait_p50 API from the
prior commit (e2a1fad), which this pass's measurement used.

FrameReport gave a real, measured on-device number (frames=34,
janky%=61.76, p50=26.5ms p90=48.0ms p99=98.1ms worst=98.1ms) and
long-press-then-drag-to-select is now confirmed on-device (logcat plus a
screenshot of the highlighted selection). Neither closes I5's box to [x]
yet: the frame number is real but not the clean single 24-swipe loop
comparable to Compose's, because gestures against this checkout's
EMU_GPU=software emulator intermittently delivered zero touch input this
session -- a new, separately named finding (candidate cause: the
emulator's own software rasterisation measured at ~78% of a CPU core
continuously), not yet root-caused. DECISIONS.md's DEFERRED item is
updated with these numbers rather than a decision made here.

I5's transcript screen now runs on-device against a real ai-server on
iris-android-app's new transcript-screen feature (extends I2's shell
rather than a third one), with real scrolling, real touch-drag panning
and tap-by-name accessibility all confirmed by screenshot/log evidence.
I4's own emulator-side check (tap-by-name on the tabs demo) closed the
same session, so its box ticks [x] now.
Still [~], not [x]: the render-time number RUST.md's recommendation
wants for iris couldn't be produced this pass, for a precise and
recorded reason rather than a vague one -- dumpsys gfxinfo cannot see a
SurfaceView's own GPU-drawn frames at all (0 frames reported across a
gesture loop that visibly scrolled), and a SurfaceFlinger --latency
fallback gave no per-frame history either on this Android version. The
Compose side of the same loop did produce a real number under identical
conditions (8.96% janky, 99th percentile 150ms), so this is now a
one-sided number rather than a missing one on both sides.
Also found and recorded: the AVD's saved snapshot carries a GPU config
across restarts, so switching between the documented Vulkan boot
recipes needs a cold boot (clearing snapshots/) that the emu wrapper
does not force -- cost three different-looking crashes before the
pattern was the snapshot, not the code.
DECISIONS.md's DEFERRED item is updated with the numbers Iris needs to
weigh the iris-vs-Masonry call; the call itself stays hers.
