+base class assumes exist. Every SSR bug that's surfaced maps onto one of four root-cause
 shapes; misclassifying a new report against the wrong shape sends the investigation
 to the wrong fix (or worse, invents a redundant one). This pack answers "which shape is
 this" and "what's the state of each shape's fix" — it never carries the fix itself.
 
-## The three shapes, in one line each
+## The four shapes, in one line each
 
 1. **A browser-only API is called unconditionally → crash.** `attachInternals`,
    the four Observer constructors, `document.adoptedStyleSheets`. **Fixed** (gh#285).
 2. **`connectedCallback` destructively re-stamps existing DOM → silent content loss.**
-   The mechanism is real, but **narrowed to a static audit** (gh#284, 2026-07-17) —
-   zero shipped components currently pair a non-null template with real light-DOM
-   content, so nothing is exposed today; a forward audit catches a future regression.
+   The ORIGINAL diagnosis, narrowed to a static audit 2026-07-17 (gh#284) — zero
+   shipped components currently pair a non-null template with real light-DOM
+   content, so this specific mechanism isn't exposed today; a forward audit catches
+   a future regression. **Do not stop here** — see shape 2b, the actual live bug
+   found investigating the same report.
+2b. **Custom-element upgrade doesn't replay `attributeChangedCallback` for
+   pre-existing attributes → reflected properties stuck at their class default.**
+   The REAL mechanism behind gh#284's reported symptom. happy-dom and (by strong
+   inference) linkedom both skip the custom-elements spec's upgrade-time
+   attribute replay (§4.13.5 step 6); any `reflect: true` property seeded only
+   from pre-parsed/SSR HTML never initializes. **Fixed 2026-07-18** (gh#284,
+   PR #309) — `connectedCallback` now re-syncs every declared property from its
+   live attribute before `connected()` runs.
 3. **A connect-time layout measurement is treated as confirmed, not unknown.** A zero
    rect (shim, or real pre-layout connect) drives a wrong persistent decision.
    **Fixed for one component** (gh#286); the general pattern is unswept.

+Safe on every environment: `connectedCallback` fires reliably everywhere
+(unlike the shimmed `attributeChangedCallback` replay), and the resync is a
+no-op where the replay already happened correctly — the property setter's
+`Object.is` check short-circuits when the value already matches, so no extra
+render pass. This is a FRAMEWORK-LEVEL fix, already shipped — a component

The mechanism is still real (a synthetic repro confirms it), but zero shipped components are exposed. Fixing `stamp()`/`connectedCallback` itself was rejected as disproportionate (touches every primitive's render lifecycle for a currently-zero-instance risk) in favor of a static audit gate that catches a FUTURE component reintroducing the conflict shape.

(1) The ORIGINAL diagnosis (destructive `stamp()`) was narrowed 2026-07-17: every component the issue names has `static template = () => null`, so `stamp()` never runs for them — zero shipped components exposed; a static audit gate catches a future regression instead of a lifecycle rewrite. (2) A SEPARATE, real, live bug was found in the same investigation area and fixed 2026-07-18: happy-dom/linkedom don't replay `attributeChangedCallback` for attributes already present at custom-element upgrade (spec §4.13.5 step 6) — any `reflect: true` property seeded only from pre-parsed/SSR HTML stayed at its class default after upgrade (e.g. `<nav-item-ui text="Profile">` rendered with an empty label). `connectedCallback` now re-syncs every declared property from its live attribute before `connected()` runs.

Scope was narrower than filed: `select-ui` already parsed declarative `<option>` children, `chart-ui` already hydrated `.data` from a `data="[…]"` attribute — only `table-ui`'s `.data` had no declarative form.

Fixed by switching to an entry-file-relative glob (`../node_modules/...`). A second, independent cause (Vite's dev-server `optimizeDeps` pre-bundling) has no package-side fix — documented as a consumer `optimizeDeps.exclude` workaround.
