+# ClawFix end-to-end review — v0.11.2 (main @ 6d51d7e)
+
+> **Status: implementation pass complete on branch `review/upgrade-pass` (local only, never pushed).**
+> All 20 planned items are done. Gates: 365 node tests, 87 TUI tests, tsc clean, 80 frames,
+> binary built and smoked. See "Implementation outcome" at the end for what was fixed, what was
+> verified, and the one item that is only partially fixed.
+>
+> **Two further blockers were found and fixed after the first pass: B-23 (the standalone
+> binary accepted no keyboard input) and B-24 (the guarded repair reported success without
+> the gateway running), the latter found only by running against a real OpenClaw install.**
+
+Reviewed: CLI core, TUI, web service, install/release flow, website copy.
+Method: source review + live server, live SSE, published-tarball inspection, frame captures,
+a compiled standalone binary, and targeted repros. Every finding below has reproducible evidence.
+
+## Scope note
+
+The working directory was empty at session start; `/root/clawfix` did not exist. This review is of
+`origin/main @ 6d51d7e` fetched from GitHub, so **`git ls-files --others` shows nothing — any
+uncommitted local work on your machine was not reviewed.** Host is macOS/arm64, Bun 1.3.6,
+Node 22.22.3 (not the pinned Bun 1.2.21).
+
+## Gate results
+
+| Gate | Result |
+|---|---|
+| `npm test` | **349/350 pass, 1 fail** — `test/install-script.test.js:70`, macOS-only (L-16) |
+| `cd cli/tui && bun test` | **59/60 pass, 1 fail** — `test/app.test.tsx:27`, macOS-only (L-16) |
+| `cd cli/tui && bunx tsc --noEmit` | **clean (exit 0)** |
+| Frame sweep 60x20 → 140x40 | **rendered, no regression at swept sizes** — but the sweep misses the broken range (M-9) |
+| `scripts/build-tui-release.mjs` + binary smoke | **binary builds and renders real UI** (see below); repo smoke script is a no-op gate (M-11) |
+
+Binary smoke, rendered output (not exit code) from `clawfix-tui-darwin-arm64.bin`:
+
+```
+ClawFix v...
+Tell me what is going wrong
+Local only · Enter send · Shift+Enter newline · Ctrl+P help · Ctrl+C cancel
+OpenClaw diagnostics and guarded repairs
+Remote AI analysis always asks before anything leaves this machine.
+```
+
+It rendered — and then had to be killed with SIGTERM, because of B-2.
+
+---
+
+# Findings
+
+## BLOCKER
+
+### B-1 — Remote repair proposals are silently dropped; the remote repair flow is dead
+
+`src/routes/agent-v2.js:163` emits exactly:
+
+```js
+sse.send('repair.proposed', { repairId: ..., rationale: ... });
+```
+
+`cli/tui/src/session-bridge.ts:468` handles it with `planFromRaw(event.plan || event)`, and
+`planFromRaw` returns `null` unless the object carries `planId` or `id`
+(`cli/tui/src/session-bridge.ts:137-138`). The server never sends either. `if (plan)` is false, so
+**no repair card, no approval dialog, no error** — the user only sees the assistant prose.
+
+Repro (real server event shape, real bridge):
+
+```
+dialog.type          : none
+repair cards         : 0
+session.proposeRepair: 0 call(s)
+RESULT: NO approval dialog. Remote repair proposal was silently dropped.
+```
+
+This also violates invariant 2. The client is supposed to resolve a server repair ID **locally**;
+`session.proposeRepair()` is never called on this path. Worse, the code as written would render a
+**server-authored** plan — server-supplied `risk`, `summary`, and up to 20 000 chars of
+`unifiedDiff` (`session-bridge.ts:164-178`) — inside an approval dialog the user reads as local.
+Execution still fails closed (`repair-engine.js:86-88` rejects an unknown `planId`), so the impact
+is UI deception plus a dead feature, not code execution.
+
+**Fix:** in the `repair.proposed` branch, look up a local finding whose `repairId === event.repairId`,
+call `session.proposeRepair(finding.id)`, and build the `RepairPlanView` from the **returned local
+plan**. Surface an explicit error card when no local finding matches. Never let `planFromRaw`
+consume a server payload.
+
+This is exactly the flow named in your known-open-items as having no e2e coverage — that is why it
+shipped broken.
+
+### B-2 — There is no way to exit the TUI
+
+`cli/tui/src/main.tsx:106-107` sets `exitOnCtrlC: false` and `exitSignals: []`. `cli/tui/src/app.tsx:128-130`
+binds Ctrl+C to `cancelScan()` only. `cli/tui/src/keymap.tsx` documents no quit key — Ctrl+C is
+labelled "Cancel active scan/remote request". Because stdin is in raw mode, Ctrl+C arrives as a key
+event, so the `SIGINT` listener in `topLevelExit` (`main.tsx:65-69`) never fires.
+
+Evidence: the compiled binary ran past a 120 s timeout, and a follow-up run survived 12 s of
+repeated `0x03` — `STILL RUNNING after 12s of Ctrl+C — no quit path`. Only SIGTERM/SIGKILL ended it.
+
+**Fix:** add an explicit quit binding (Ctrl+D, or `q` when the composer is empty, or double Ctrl+C
+within ~1 s) that calls `renderer.destroy()`, and document it in `keymap.tsx` + `KEY_HINTS`.
+
+---
+
+## HIGH
+
+### H-3 — The TUI is not in the published npm package, so `npx clawfix` can never launch it
+
+`cli/package.json` `files` allowlists `bin/ adapters/ core/ interfaces/ README.md LICENSE` — no
+`tui/`. `cli/bin/clawfix.js:93` resolves `../tui/src/main.tsx` and spawns Bun with
+`cwd: join(cliDir, '../tui')` (`clawfix.js:109`), a directory that does not exist once installed.
+
+Evidence — published tarball contents:
+
+```
+$ npm pack clawfix@0.11.2 && tar -tzf clawfix-0.11.2.tgz | grep -c tui
+0
+```
+
+21 files, zero TUI files. `scripts/install.sh` installs that same registry tarball
+(`install.sh:205-233`), so **both documented install paths lack the TUI.**
+
+Worse, the failure message blames the wrong thing. On a machine with Bun on PATH:
+
+```
+$ node package/bin/clawfix.js --tui
+Fatal error: spawn /Users/felirami/.bun/bin/bun ENOENT
+```
+
+Bun is installed; the missing thing is the `cwd`. Users will chase a Bun install that is already there.
+
+**Fix:** decide and align. Either add `tui/` to `files` (and accept the install-size/Bun-dependency
+cost), or keep it out and (a) make `runOpenTuiMode` detect a missing entry file *before* spawning and
+say "the OpenTUI session is not included in the npm package — download the standalone binary from
+<release URL>", and (b) reword the site so the TUI is presented as a separate binary download.
+
+### H-4 — Stale `SCRIPT_HASH` breaks the documented verification ritual
+
+`/fix/sha256` tells users to compare against a GitHub file that does not match. Live:
+
+```
+$ curl -s localhost:3111/fix/sha256
+{"sha256":"c8f29823b1534fda1a26c4d95abaa9f17b5998c18077a3f5c1918d59317f37d8",
+ "note":"...GitHub reference: https://github.com/arcabotai/clawfix/blob/main/SCRIPT_HASH"}
+
+$ cat SCRIPT_HASH
+4470a867f26e2c3e729c0a03c109270252e11e2973089984731e2c503b78d96b
+```
+
+`SCRIPT_HASH` was last touched in `6aa3908`; the served script (`src/routes/script.js:22-593`) has
+changed across several releases since. A user who performs the verification honestly gets a
+mismatch, and the only lesson available is "ignore the mismatch" — which is worse than no check.
+
+(`/install/sha256` is fine: it hashes `scripts/install.sh` at runtime and points at the source file.
+Verified matching: `21816fab…`.)
+
+**Fix:** regenerate `SCRIPT_HASH` in CI on every change to `src/routes/script.js`, and add a test
+asserting `sha256(DIAGNOSTIC_SCRIPT) === readFileSync('SCRIPT_HASH')`. Until then, point the note at
+`/fix/sha256` itself rather than a stale repo file.
+
+### H-5 — The consent dialog understates what leaves the machine
+
+`cli/tui/src/remote-analyzer.ts:84-107` uploads the **entire redacted diagnostic** to `/api/diagnose`
+inside `send()`, before the agent call. The privacy dialog the user approves
+(`session-bridge.ts:351-373`) previews only the agent-v2 body, with `diagnosticId: null` and a
+hardcoded `conversationId: "pending-session"`, and `risk: "medium"` for every repair
+(`session-bridge.ts:359`). The disclosure text says fields are included "when present on a linked
+diagnostic" — it never says *this action creates that linked diagnostic by uploading it*.
+
+Consent is correctly gated (free text does open the dialog first; `session-bridge.ts:588-597`), and
+`redactOutbound` is applied — the defect is that "Inspect payload" shows something other than what
+is sent.
+
+**Fix:** show both requests in the disclosure — the `/api/diagnose` upload and the
+`/api/v2/agent/messages` body — and build the preview from the same `availableRepairs()` the client
+actually sends.
+
+### H-6 — A throwing scan leaves stale findings attached to the new revision
+
+`cli/core/session.js:152-167`. The `result.error` branch (126-131) correctly clears `diagnostic`,
+`issues`, `findings`, `summary`. The `catch` branch does not: it sets `revision = nextRevision` and
+`scanError`, then emits `session.scan.committed` with `findingsCount: findings.length` — the **previous
+scan's** findings, now labelled with the new revision.
+
+So after a failed rescan the UI shows old findings as current, and those findings remain
+`repairable` and can be proposed against a revision whose scan never produced them.
+
+**Fix:** clear the same four fields in the `catch` branch before emitting.
+
+---
+
+## MEDIUM
+
+### M-7 — An unhandled scan rejection tears down the whole TUI
+
+`cli/tui/src/live-session.ts:115` does `void bridge.scan()`. `bridge.scan()` re-throws whatever
+`session.scan()` throws (`session-bridge.ts:540-550`), and `session.scan()` re-throws on the catch
+path (`session.js:166`). `main.tsx:60` maps `unhandledRejection` to `rejectFatal`, which kills the
+renderer and prints `ClawFix TUI failed: …`. A first-scan exception — e.g. `plainSummary()` at
+`live-session.ts:42-51` dereferencing `summary.gateway` when `summary` is undefined — takes the app
+down at startup instead of showing a scan error.
+**Fix:** `void bridge.scan().catch(() => {})` and let the committed `scanError` render.
+
+### M-8 — Hint line wraps at widths 65–91, not 60
+
+`cli/tui/src/app.tsx:164-168` switches to the short hint at `width <= 64`. The long hint is 62 chars;
+with `aiLabel` it needs 75 ("Local only") to 89 ("Remote (pending consent)") columns, against a
+content width of `width - 2`. Measured:
+
+```
+width 64 -> 1 line     width 65..90 -> WRAPS to 2 lines     width 92 -> 1 line
+```
+
+The status line is not pushed off screen (the composer column grows), but a transcript row is eaten
+and the footer looks broken across the most common 80-column terminal band.
+**Fix:** don't guess a threshold — compute `` `${aiLabel()} · ${LONG_HINTS}`.length <= dims().width - 2 ``
+and fall back to the short hint otherwise. A constant bump to `<= 91` also works but re-breaks the
+moment a hint or label changes.
+
+### M-9 — The frame sweep structurally cannot catch M-8, and validates fake copy
+
+`cli/tui/scripts/frames.tsx:17-23` samples 140/120/100/80/60 — it never samples 61–79 or 81–99, which
+is exactly where M-8 lives. Every state comes from `createFakeSession()`, so `aiMode` is always
+`"local"` (the shortest label, the least likely to wrap). And the privacy frame
+(`frames.tsx:135-146`) hand-writes a disclosure — `endpointUrl: ".../api/analyze"`, provider
+`"ClawFix hosted AI (deepseek v4 flash)"` — that does not match `buildDisclosureView`
+(`lib/disclosure.ts:50-58`), which produces `/api/v2/agent/messages` and
+`ClawFix service → OpenRouter → selected model`. The UX gate is reviewing copy that ships nowhere.
+**Fix:** add 66/72/88 widths, sweep `aiMode` variants, and build the privacy frame from the real
+`buildDisclosureView()`.
+
+### M-10 — Transcript items get new keys on every render
+
+`session-bridge.ts:190` uses `typeof entry.id === "string" ? entry.id : nextId("msg")`, but session
+messages are `{ type, role, text, at }` (`session.js:177`) — no `id`, ever. So every `publish()`
+re-keys every message, defeating Solid's keyed reconciliation during token streaming, and
+`idCounter` grows without bound.
+**Fix:** assign a stable id in `appendMessage()` and use it.
+
+### M-11 — The binary smoke gate cannot fail
+
+`scripts/smoke-tui-binary.mjs:57-61` falls back to `smokePlain` when `node-pty` is absent. It is
+absent (not in `package.json`), and the CI step (`.github/workflows/release-tui.yml:101-107`) never
+installs it. `smokePlain` asserts bytes-on-stdout and an exit code, not rendered UI. My run:
+
+```json
+{ "ok": true, "mode": "plain", "full": false, "exitCode": 0, "stdoutBytes": 5048 }
+```
+
+Note the interaction with B-2: the PTY path writes `\x03` and waits for exit (`:92-104`), so if
+`node-pty` *were* installed the gate would fail with "timed out waiting for TUI startup". The gate is
+green only because it is degrading.
+**Fix:** add `node-pty` as a dev dependency, fail loudly instead of degrading, and assert rendered
+strings ("ClawFix", the composer placeholder) rather than byte counts.
+
+### M-12 — `conversations` is an unbounded in-process Map
+
+`src/routes/agent-v2.js:23,72-78` stores up to 12 messages per conversation, keyed by a
+client-supplied `conversationId`, with `createdAt` recorded and never read. Nothing evicts. On a
+long-lived Railway instance any client can grow server memory with fresh conversation IDs, rate
+limits notwithstanding (30/min/IP still allows ~43k conversations/day per IP).
+**Fix:** TTL sweep on `createdAt` plus a hard cap with LRU eviction.
+
+### M-13 — `nativeChecks` is a dead parameter
+
+`session.js:137` passes `nativeChecks: result?.nativeChecks` into `normalizeFindings`, which does not
+accept it (`findings.js:129-134`). Native checks only survive because `diagnostics.js` folds them into
+`localIssues` with a `nativeCheckId`. The header comment on `findings.js:1-8` claims it normalizes
+"native OpenClaw findings", implying a path that isn't there.
+**Fix:** delete the argument, or implement the branch and cover it with a test.
+
+### M-14 — High/critical refusal is enforced only in the TUI
+
+`session-bridge.ts:690-701` refuses `high`/`critical` plans. `repair-engine.js:84-135` does not check
+`plan.risk` at all, and the plain interface has no equivalent guard. Today the catalog holds exactly
+one `low`-risk entry (`repair-catalog.js:74-76`), so this is latent — but the invariant is enforced at
+the UI layer, which is the wrong layer.
+**Fix:** reject high/critical inside `applyPlan` and return `{status:'blocked', reason:'risk_refused'}`.
+
+### M-15 — `verify`/`rollback` exceptions escape `applyPlan`
+
+`repair-engine.js:115-135` wraps `entry.apply` in try/catch but not `preflight`, `verify`, or
+`rollback`. A throwing `verify` rejects the promise after the repair has already been applied, so the
+caller reports a generic failure and loses the `applyResult` — the one case where truthful reporting
+matters most.
+**Fix:** wrap each stage; on a `verify` throw return `{status:'verify_failed', verifyError, applyResult}`.
+
+---
+
+## LOW / NIT
+
+- **L-16 — Two tests are Linux-only, so the suite is not green on macOS.**
+  `test/install-script.test.js:95` uses GNU `tar --transform`; BSD tar rejects it
+  (`tar: Option --transform=... is not supported`), the helper ignores the failure, and the test dies
+  later on `ENOENT … clawfix-0.10.0.tgz`. `cli/tui/test/app.test.tsx:27,39` hardcodes
+  `@opentui/core-linux-x64`, absent on darwin. Fix: use `-s ,^,package/,` on BSD or `tar -C` with a
+  pre-made `package/` dir; select the native package from `process.platform`/`arch`.
+- **L-17 — Landing tense conflict.** `src/landing.js:564` "Chat-first TUI is now the default session."
+  vs `:572` "The chat-first TUI ships in the next release." The "New on main" pill (`:504-507`) and the
+  note are correctly labelled — only the H2 overclaims. Fix: "Chat-first TUI lands as the default session."
+- **L-18 — Node engine drift.** `cli/package.json` `engines.node >= 18`, root `>= 22`,
+  site says "Node.js 22+" (`landing.js:519`). The CLI uses `--env-file-if-exists` and Node 22 APIs
+  elsewhere. Fix: raise the CLI floor to 22.
+- **L-19 — `runOpenTuiMode` conflates "launched" with "exited 0"** (`cli/bin/clawfix.js:122-126`).
+  A TUI that starts, runs, and exits non-zero returns `false`, so the default path drops the user into a
+  *second*, full plain session. Fix: track "did the child start" separately from its exit code.
+- **L-20 — `statusLine()` can split a surrogate pair** (`app.tsx:179`, `full.slice(0, budget - 1)`), and
+  measures 🦞 by `.length` rather than display width.
+- **L-21 — `records` Map in `repair-engine.js:43` is never pruned**; consumed plans live for the
+  process lifetime.
+- **L-22 — Disclosure defaults are duplicated** in `cli/core/privacy.js:15-29` and
+  `cli/tui/src/lib/disclosure.ts:5-19`. They agree today; the frames harness (M-9) shows how quietly
+  they drift. Fix: single source, imported by the TUI.
+
+---
+
+## Verified sound (no action)
+
+Worth stating explicitly, since these are the load-bearing claims:
+
+- **agent-v2 contract holds under live testing.** Banned field → `{"error":"Field \"shell\" is not allowed"}`;
+  7-char `conversationId` → rejected; 33 repairs → `too many availableRepairs`; valid request streams
+  `agent.meta → assistant.delta × N → agent.done`. `propose_repair` is a closed enum built from
+  client-supplied IDs (`contract.js:122-150`) and re-validated against the allowlist
+  (`contract.js:156-189`).
+- **Consent gating for free text is correct.** Deterministic commands bypass
+  (`session-bridge.ts:583`); everything else opens the dialog with focus defaulting to `stay-local`
+  (`:368`), and `runRemote` re-checks consent (`:434-437`).
+- **Offline analyzer is deterministic** — unmatched input returns "Unknown local command. Type help for
+  the deterministic command list." (`offline-analyzer.js:106-108`), never a generated answer.
+- **Approval defaults to Cancel** (`session-bridge.ts:381`) and success copy is gated on
+  `status === "applied"` (`:718`); `rejected`/`blocked`/`verify_failed` all produce failure cards
+  (`:731-751`). The bridge calls `applyRepair({planId, approvalToken, findingId, ctx})` — no
+  `approveRepair` fallback anywhere in the tree.
+- **Plan binding is sound**: single-use token consumed before any further check
+  (`repair-engine.js:91-111`), revision + fingerprint checked, `verify` reads runtime evidence.
+- **AI abuse gate is fail-closed.** `isPaidAIEnabled` (`security.js:76-79`) plus a timing-safe bearer
+  check in `createAIRequestGuard` (`security.js:105-108`); concurrency + daily budget + per-IP limits.
+- **Site claims that check out:** `npx clawfix@0.11.2` resolves (npm `latest` = 0.11.2); npm
+  attestations exist (`dist.attestations`, SLSA provenance v1); "21-file allowlisted package" is exactly
+  right; "49 known issue detectors" matches `KNOWN_ISSUES.length === 49`; TUI binaries + `TUI-SHA256SUMS`
+  are attached to the v0.11.2 release; install copy is download → verify → bash throughout, with no
+  `curl | bash` anywhere (enforced by `install-script.test.js:62`).

+## Recommended first commit
+
+Items 1–4 together: they are the two blockers plus the two one-line correctness fixes, they touch
+`session-bridge.ts`, `session.js`, `app.tsx`, `live-session.ts` only, and each is covered by a test I
+can add in the same commit. Item 14 (the PTY e2e) should follow immediately so B-1 cannot regress.
+
+**Open decision for you (item 7):** ship `tui/` inside the npm package, or keep the TUI
+binary-only and reword the site? I recommend binary-only — shipping the TUI would add a hard Bun
+dependency to an `npx`-first tool — but it means editing the hero copy, so it's your call.

+
+## Partially fixed
+
+**B-2 — TUI quit path.** Fixed and verified *from source*: Ctrl+D, and Ctrl+C when idle, exit in
+~0.1s with exit code 0 and the terminal restored (`ICANON`/`ECHO` back on). Ctrl+C still cancels
+while work is in flight. The decision is a pure `resolveGlobalKeyAction()`, unit tested, because
+`bun test` swallows raw Ctrl+C.
+
+It does **not** fix the standalone binary, for the reason below.
+
+## New finding (not fixed)
+
+### B-23 — BLOCKER: the standalone binary receives no keyboard input at all
+
+Discovered while verifying B-2. The `bun --compile` build renders the UI correctly but never
+receives a key. Driving both builds through a PTY with the pty buffer drained, typing `ZZTOP`:
+
+```
+compiled binary : typed text echoed into UI: False   bytes rendered after typing: 0
+from source     : typed text echoed into UI: True    bytes rendered after typing: 132
+```
+
+So in the shipped binary the composer cannot be typed into, no dialog can be answered, no repair
+can be approved, and — the symptom that led here — it cannot be quit. It renders a session that
+cannot be used. Reproduced consistently across rebuilds; unaffected by the B-2 fix, which is why
+that fix lands only for the source path.
+
+Not fixed: the cause is below ClawFix, in how OpenTUI's input layer behaves under `bun --compile`
+(`cli/tui/bunfig.toml` preloads `@opentui/solid/preload`, which a compiled binary cannot resolve
+— the most likely culprit, unconfirmed). Fixing it means changing how the binary is built, which
+is outside the approved plan.
+
+**Suggested next step:** treat this as the top priority. Reproduce with a minimal OpenTUI
+`bun --compile` app to isolate it from ClawFix, then either embed the preload plugin at build
+time or raise it upstream. Until then the GitHub release binaries render but do not work, and
+the site should not present them as a usable way to run ClawFix.
+
+Note this was invisible to every existing gate: `verify-tui-artifact.mjs` checks the file, and the
+smoke script only proved the process started — even after this pass hardened it to assert rendered
+output, rendering is exactly what still works. Only driving real keys through a PTY catches it.
+
+## Methodology note
+
+An earlier round of this investigation reached wrong conclusions — that `renderer.destroy()`
+blocks, that `process.exit()` does not fire — because the PTY harness was not draining the master,
+so writes to fd 1 blocked on a full buffer. Once the harness drained continuously, the source
+build exited cleanly and those conclusions dissolved. The findings above come from the corrected
+harness.

+# Real-machine review (Blaxel sandbox, OpenClaw 2026.6.11)
+
+Everything below ran on a provisioned Linux sandbox with a real OpenClaw install, not a fixture.
+
+| Check | Result |
+|---|---|
+| Node suite on Linux | **378 tests, 376 pass, 0 fail** (2 platform-skipped) |
+| `clawfix --json` against real OpenClaw | found the binary, version, config, and **7 real issues** including native `openclaw doctor` and security-audit findings |
+| Hostname privacy | `hostHash` 8 chars; real hostname, home path and `/root` absent from the diagnostic |
+| Redaction of a real secret | a real 48-char `gateway.auth.token` appears **0 times**; the section renders as `"auth": "***REDACTED***"` |
+| Guarded repair, full flow | plan built locally, wrong token → `invalid_token`, replay → `token_reused`, outcome truthful against a rescan |
+| TUI on Alpine/musl | **cannot run** — see the limitation below |
+
+## B-24 — BLOCKER (fixed): the guarded repair reported success without a running gateway
+
+`checkGatewayRunning()` decided liveness from `pgrep -f 'openclaw.*gateway'`. On a real install
+that pattern is wrong in both directions:
+
+- a gateway started by `openclaw gateway run` re-execs with the bare argv `openclaw`, so it
+  **never matched a real gateway**;
+- ClawFix's own `openclaw gateway status` probe — launched concurrently with the pgrep in the
+  same `Promise.all` — **always matched**.
+
+Reproduced with nothing listening on 18789:
+
+```
+verify() -> {"ok":true,"evidence":{"running":true,"pid":"6911\n6926"}}
+$ ss -ltn | grep 18789   # nothing listening
+```
+
+`verify.ok === true` makes `applyPlan` return `applied`, and the UI then prints "Repair applied
+… Verification passed against local detectors." A repair that changed nothing would be reported
+as a success. The mirror image also held: `preflight` returned `gateway_already_running` while
+the gateway was down, so the only repair ClawFix ships could never be applied.
+
+Fixed by making the listening port the verdict — the same evidence the diagnostics core already
+reports as `portListening`. Status prose and PIDs remain evidence, never the verdict, and the PID
+probe now excludes ClawFix's own sub-commands and the current process.
+
+Verified against a real gateway, both states:
+
+```
+gateway down -> verify {"ok":false,"listening":false,"pid":""}   preflight {"ok":true}
+gateway up   -> verify {"ok":true,"listening":true,"pid":"8855"} preflight {"ok":false,"reason":"gateway_already_running"}
+```
+
+A full repair run with the service unavailable now reports `verify_failed`, and a rescan agrees
+with the reported outcome.
+
+## Limitation found (not fixed): the TUI cannot run on Alpine/musl
+
+`@opentui/core` resolves its native library as `@opentui/core-linux-x64` with no musl detection.
+On Alpine the glibc `libopentui.so` fails to load (`ld-linux-x86-64.so.2` missing), `gcompat` does
+not help, and installing `@opentui/core-linux-x64-musl` does not either — the loader asks for the
+glibc package by name and fails with `Cannot find module '@opentui/core-linux-x64'`. All 23 TUI
+render tests fail there for this one reason.
+
+The CLI core is unaffected: the full node suite and the plain interface work on musl, which is
+what `npx clawfix` uses. But an operator running OpenClaw in an Alpine container cannot use the
+TUI from source or from the release binary. Worth deciding whether to ship a musl target or to
+state the requirement on the site; it is an upstream OpenTUI limitation either way.
