+Tools load for the current Agent after a successful `skill` load or this receipt; if invisible, call `computer_use_activate` (opens no cycle, releases no brake). Stop/exit and computer_ask work before activation. Issue real tool calls: a target handle is a string argument to computer_uia_act — tags, examples and prose do not execute; in a run_code-only host, call tools through run_code. Observation and the safety direction (ask, stop, exit) are not gated; a human brake still refuses observation. Read a referenced file only when its condition applies.
 
 ## Start, act, verify
 
-1. Identify the intended app with `computer_state {windows:true}`, reusing an already known window when valid. Activate its hwnd with `computer_window`; require `activated:true` before capturing or driving. Bind the intended record/field/document as well as the window. If minimized, restore then activate; an occlusion error needs inspecting what covers it.
-2. Use the cheapest sufficient observation: returned readback, a focused UIA query, a reusable mark map, then an image when visual evidence is needed. Do not read the same state twice merely to satisfy a checklist.
-3. Prefer `computer_uia {hwnd, role, name, id}` and `computer_uia_act` for controls exposing patterns. `name` is a substring; `id` is the exact AutomationId from a query. Scope with hwnd. Prefer a returned `target` handle for the selected control. If it was replaced, `rebind:true` permits recovery only when native identity or complete, unique semantic evidence still identifies it in the same window. Changed context, ambiguity and incomplete searches refuse. Use either target or name/id/role selectors; do not combine them. Query again with a narrower target; do not pick the first same-name button. Tabs use action:"select"; fields can use setValue with a readback.
-4. Otherwise use a currently observed mark or measured screen coordinate. A mark is a snapshot ID. It does not follow scrolling. Each mark action checks window identity, position and sampled pixels; STALE_MARK means no input was dispatched. Refresh with `computer_marks {refresh:true}`, then select the intended element by its new ID. Old IDs are retired. Refresh after known scrolling/navigation even if a sample misses the change. dx/dy offsets work in direct and batch clicks.
-5. Batch a coherent set of actions to a natural checkpoint, without a fixed step count. Actions run serially; failure, failed activation or cancellation stops subsequent steps. Reuse the returned evidence. `shot:"auto"` adds at most one observation when needed (image or UIA state); `shot:"never"` is suitable when text/readback already verifies the result. Direct mouse/keyboard actions also return a checkpoint chosen from current transport capability and dated route evidence. Batch known inputs to avoid paying for an intermediate image after each keystroke.
-6. Verify the task outcome: field value, saved record/document, selected range, application status or image. A provider accepting input proves neither a save nor the business result. Report what was actually observed and any unresolved uncertainty, then finish.
-7. As soon as desktop work is finished, call `computer_ctrl {action:"release"}`. Release the computer-use cycle even when you will continue explaining, reasoning, or using other tools in the same chat. Do not retain desktop ownership merely because the conversation is alive. A later genuine desktop need can open a fresh cycle in the same turn. Normal turn completion releases automatically without a question card; explicit user pauses/questions are preserved.

+2. Cheapest sufficient observation first: returned readback → focused UIA query → reusable mark map → image only when visual evidence is needed. Do not re-read state to satisfy a checklist.
+3. Prefer `computer_uia {hwnd, role, name, id}` + `computer_uia_act` for pattern controls (`name` substring, `id` exact AutomationId, scoped by hwnd). Prefer the returned `target`; after replacement `rebind:true` recovers only with native identity or complete unique semantic evidence in the same window — changed context, ambiguity and incomplete searches refuse. Use target OR name/id/role, never both; narrow the query instead of taking the first same-name button. Tabs use `action:"select"`; fields may `setValue` with readback.

+`since` (same query + previous observation id) returns added/changed/removed elements and order changes; omitted elements keep their state, while no/expired base, changed scope, partial results or an uneconomical diff return full. `snapshot` retrieves a retained observation without capturing — not fresh verification; page it with `offset`/`limit`. `computer_ctrl {action:"clear_cache"}` clears this Agent's cache without a cycle. Caches are bounded and expire; storage failure falls back to bounded memory and memory pressure to inline results without a fake snapshot id. Omit since/snapshot for fresh evidence after losing the baseline. See [progressive-control.md](references/progressive-control.md).
 
-Repeated `computer_uia` or `computer_state` queries can pass `since` with the previous observation ID and the same query. A diff contains added/changed/removed elements and any order change; omitted elements retain their previous state. No base, expired base, changed scope, partial results or an uneconomical diff returns full. `snapshot` retrieves a retained historical observation without another capture; it is not fresh verification. Use `offset` and `limit` to read a page instead of loading the whole snapshot. A compact feedback snapshot is read with `computer_state {snapshot:"O..."}`. `computer_ctrl {action:"clear_cache"}` clears this Agent's observation cache without opening or driving a desktop cycle. Disk caches are bounded and expire; storage failure falls back to bounded memory, and memory pressure falls back to inline results without a fake snapshot ID. Omit since/snapshot for fresh evidence after losing the baseline. See [progressive-control.md](references/progressive-control.md).
+**`computer_launch {target}`** opens an app/URL/folder/document in one call instead of the 4+ step Win+R route; the launcher resolves aliases (`calc`), `shell:` folders, URLs, paths and associations. Pass `args` (one array entry per argument value, never a pre-built command line) to start an executable with arguments — e.g. a dedicated browser profile: target `…\msedge.exe`, args `["--user-data-dir=D:\profiles\job", "--new-window", "<url>"]`. It is an actuation (same approval/brake/audit funnel, lights the border), and `launched:true` means it reached the launcher, not that the app is ready — verify with `computer_state` before driving. For code, give the full path.
 
 ## Screenshots and coordinates
 
-`computer_shot` returns a native image on routes that declare image input. With `imageStatus:"attached"`, follow `view` and inspect it directly without another read_image call when vision is usable. With `imageStatus:"path-only"`, follow `view`; the path is not visual evidence. For a text-only route use UIA/text or an image-capable model. `settled:false` needs a fresh capture. A batch attaches only its latest image and labels its step; an earlier image does not verify later actions. `computer_marks {shot:true}` returns an annotated file path whose IDs match the text map.
+`computer_shot` returns a native image on routes declaring image input. `imageStatus:"attached"`: follow `view` and inspect it directly — no extra read_image. `imageStatus:"path-only"`: follow `view`; the path is not visual evidence.

A batch attaches only its latest image and labels its step; an earlier image does not verify later actions. `computer_marks {shot:true}` returns an annotated path whose ids match the text map.
 
-Reuse `observation` from direct click/type/key/move/drag/scroll/select; do not call shot/read_image again without a reason. Image-capable routes, including provider aliases, receive image feedback when the attachment channel is available. Missing capabilities, text-only routes or unavailable attachments use UIA/text and return the reason in `feedback`. Image transport does not certify visual grounding: inspect `visionEvidence` and verify the actual target/effect. Configurable `feedbackRules` match provider/model/adapter version and expire; a current failed-grounding record selects text feedback. The historical unversioned GLM 5.3 failure record has a limited validity window and does not permanently classify every endpoint with that model name. Explicit screenshots retain their image/path even with a failed-grounding record. If UIA is absent or truncated, narrow the query or report the evidence gap. `actionFeedback:false` restores manual direct-action feedback.
+`delivery:"path"` on `computer_shot`/`computer_batch` writes the file and returns its path with NO image block — for work verified from UIA/OCR/window text. Not free: read_image re-adds the image, so use it only when verification is textual. Default `auto`.
 
-Automatic feedback defaults to `feedback:"compact"`: text feedback uses one local point read instead of a desktop UIA inventory, normally with a 6 KiB additional-text budget. The raw point evidence may be cached locally and indexed by `observation.snapshot`. Disk failure with a valid in-memory snapshot stays compact. If no retrievable snapshot can be retained, existing raw evidence is returned as `observation.inlineEvidence`, with `feedback.detail:"full"` and an explanation; this resource fallback is exempt from the compact budget and performs no additional query or input. `feedback:"full"` requests the previous complete checkpoint; `feedback:"none"` skips automatic readback when a separate authoritative verification follows. The same options apply to all model routes. Image feedback remains full-frame by default; it is only cropped when the caller explicitly supplies a click `verificationRegion:"x,y,w,h"`. This region can be far from the click (e.g. a playback bar). `changedPct` is only sampled pixel difference, and `effectVerified:false` does not claim business success. Do not skip necessary visual verification based only on a successful input receipt or changed pixels.
+Reuse `observation` from direct click/type/key/move/drag/scroll/select; do not call shot/read_image again without a reason. Image-capable routes (provider aliases included) get image feedback when the attachment channel exists, otherwise UIA/text with the reason in `feedback`. Image transport does not certify grounding — inspect `visionEvidence`. `feedbackRules` match provider/model/adapter version and expire; a current failed-grounding record selects text feedback (the GLM 5.3 record has a limited window) while explicit screenshots keep their image/path. If UIA is absent or truncated, narrow or report the gap. `actionFeedback:false` restores manual feedback.
 
-An `observationError` after input does not undo that input. Verify with a fresh readback before replaying any write. Refusal, cancellation and a human brake suppress automatic follow-up observations. Snapshot retention is best-effort and bounded; an uncached or expired result must be re-observed, not reconstructed from old coordinates.

-`WORKER_REOBSERVE` means the worker was replaced and its old observations are invalid. Obtain fresh state and continue the unfinished task; do not replay the previous write blindly. `runtime` identifies the loaded package/build/protocol and worker generation. `cleanupConfirmed` describes input-release evidence only, never whether the application saved or accepted the intended result.

+Input uses screen pixels; for image point (u,v): `x = region.x + u * region.width / imageWidth`, `y = region.y + v * region.height / imageHeight`. Use returned coordinate metadata for crops, scaling and negative monitor origins; measure stable anchors and invalidate geometry when its witness moves. See [precision.md](references/precision.md) for small icons, tables, dropdowns, tiling or uncertain geometry.

+`capturedAt` is native capture time and `ts` is response construction; never apply DPI or browser zoom twice. `settled:true` only means sampled pixels were quiet, not that a resize/navigation finished — capture again after a known geometry change. For a narrow drag handle use fresh geometry or a tight crop and hover with `computer_move`; `expectCursor:"resize-ew"` applies only to that recognized shape. CSS `col-resize`/`row-resize` and custom cursors can report `classification:"unrecognized", shape:"unknown"`, which proves neither hit nor miss: confirm with current geometry and hit-testing, then omit the check while keeping `hwnd`. `cursorCheck.status:"not-requested"` is not a successful check, and hit-testing never identifies a DOM selector. Compare fresh geometry/images before claiming a drag worked; after two misses, remeasure or change method.

+Keyboard input goes to the FOREGROUND window: target the field, inspect focus/receiver, then type. The worker reasserts the last activated/clicked target; a missing target or failed refocus refuses keyboard input. Verify the resulting value, especially after clearing — a matching focus report does not prove the right business field changed.
 
-`capturedAt` is the native pixel-capture time; `ts` is capture-response construction time. `imageSize` and `coordinates` remain available for file-only images. Do not multiply image-to-screen coordinates by DPI or browser zoom again. `settled:true` only means sampled pixels were quiet; it does not prove a resize/navigation finished. Capture again after a known geometry change. For a narrow drag handle, use fresh geometry or a tight crop, hover with `computer_move`, and inspect its cursor evidence. Use optional `expectCursor:"resize-ew"` only when that recognized standard shape is expected. Browser CSS `col-resize`/`row-resize` and custom cursors can be `classification:"unrecognized", shape:"unknown"`; this proves neither a hit nor a miss. Independently confirm such targets with current geometry and hit-testing, then omit the optional cursor check while retaining `hwnd`. `cursorCheck.status:"not-requested"` is not a successful shape check. Native/UIA hit-testing does not identify a DOM selector or CSS value. Compare fresh application geometry or images before claiming the drag worked; after two misses, remeasure or change method. See [precision.md](references/precision.md).
+Window-management keys (`alt+tab`, `alt+shift+tab`, `alt+esc`, `alt+shift+esc`, or `win`/`rwin` plus `d`, `tab`, `left`, `right`, `up`, `down`) invalidate the previous keyboard target after any accepted key-down. `receiverChanged` reports observed HWND/PID change, not successful switching; `reobserveRequired:true` and `effectVerified:false` require a new check: `computer_state {windows:true}` → `computer_window {hwnd,op:"activate"}` with `activated:true`, then observe the target — until then key/type returns `INPUT_REOBSERVE_REQUIRED` without sending input. A refused follow-up screenshot does not mean the earlier chord was not dispatched, and this flow never releases a human brake.
 
-## Focus and recovery
+`KEY_ALREADY_DOWN` sends no chord — let the human finish. Paste preserves supported clipboard formats and skips restoration after a newer copy; a clipboard warning requires a value readback before repeating input.

A matching focus report alone does not prove the correct business field was changed.
+**Focus before typing (measured 2026-11-07):** typing follows the focused CONTROL, not the window. `computer_focus {x,y,hwnd}` clicks the field and answers `focused` (UIA control type/name), `textTarget`, `caret`/`caretVerified`/`caretBlink`, and `verified`. Treat `verified:false` as "do not type": `textTarget:false` means the click landed on a button/non-editor; `textTarget:true` without a caret means focus reached a text control but the insertion point is unproven — capture the field, click its interior again (avoid the border and any placeholder text), and re-check. When the OS reports no caret, the op falls back to a two-frame blink comparison (`caretBlink`) — a true caret blinks, a static glyph does not. Never "type and see": a document that kept focus silently swallows the characters, and the damage is only visible in the file. See [shared-input.md](references/shared-input.md).
 
-Window-management keys (`alt+tab`, `alt+shift+tab`, `alt+esc`, `alt+shift+esc`, or `win`/`rwin` plus `d`, `tab`, `left`, `right`, `up`, `down`) deliberately invalidate the previous keyboard target after any accepted key-down. `receiverChanged` reports observed HWND/PID change, not successful switching; `reobserveRequired:true` and `effectVerified:false` require a new check. Use `computer_state {windows:true}` → `computer_window {hwnd,op:"activate"}` with `activated:true`, then observe the intended target before further input. Until activation, key/type returns `INPUT_REOBSERVE_REQUIRED` without sending more input. A refused follow-up screenshot does not mean the earlier chord was not dispatched. This flow never releases a human brake.
+UIA `invoke` promises no keyboard focus: after invoking a button that opens an editor, `computer_uia_act {action:"focus", ...}` the observed editor before typing, and `TYPE_FOCUS_NOT_EDITABLE` means no text was sent — do not repeat typing just because the window matched.
 
-`KEY_ALREADY_DOWN` sends no chord; let the human finish before retrying. Paste preserves supported clipboard formats and skips restoration after a newer copy. A clipboard warning requires a value readback before repeating input. See [shared-input.md](references/shared-input.md) for clipboard fallbacks and cleanup failures.
+Before replaying a write, inspect whether it already took effect, then focus, modal dialogs and readiness; retry only with evidence it did not complete or an application-supported dedupe. A timeout is an unknown result, not proof of failure.
 
-UIA `invoke` does not promise keyboard focus. After invoking a button that opens an editor, explicitly `computer_uia_act {action:"focus", ...}` the observed editor before typing; these can share a batch ending in a value readback. `TYPE_FOCUS_NOT_EDITABLE` means no text was sent: focus the intended editor before retrying. Do not repeat typing just because the window itself matched.
+**Modal dialogs of the same app:** when a command opens a dialog window (`computer_state` lists it separately), that dialog is the input receiver. `computer_window {op:"activate"}` now adopts it: the receipt names the dialog `hwnd` and reports `modalOf` (the parent it belongs to), so keys and screenshots follow the dialog instead of being refused as `INPUT_TARGET_CHANGED`. Prefer clicking a field inside the dialog over keyboard navigation; a key that still reports `INPUT_TARGET_CHANGED` means the chord's target changed mid-send — inspect the dialog state instead of re-sending. A refused screenshot right after a dialog opens (`KICKOFF-FOCUS-REQUIRED`) means the dialog failed to become the confirmed target: activate it again (or its `hwnd` from `state`), then capture. Do not type into a dialog you have not looked at.
 
-Before replaying a write, inspect whether it already took effect, then focus, modal dialogs and readiness. Retry only with evidence it did not complete or an application-supported deduplication method. A timeout is an unknown result, not proof of failure. Preserve the breakpoint and live cycle; elapsed time cannot release a human brake. Use computer_wait for transient readiness. Selftest/calibration are for observed input-delivery or coordinate problems, not every failure.
+**Document editors (Word/WPS/PDF) — destructive selection:** never triple-click, never `ctrl+a`, never select-then-paste as an edit strategy. Triple-click selects an unpredictable scope (measured 2026-11-07: it replaced an entire one-page form in Word). Edit one line at a time: click inside the line, `home`, then `shift+end`, CAPTURE and confirm the selection covers only that line, then type. After any unexpected document change press `ctrl+z` immediately and capture before continuing; never save a document you have not seen in full after the edit. Save As a NEW file and never overwrite the original.
 
-For pixel waits, pass the observed target hwnd to computer_wait (stable/change) so animation elsewhere does not delay the task. The default observes the entire virtual desktop. A caret or animation inside the sampled region can still prevent settling: verify with UIA state instead of repeatedly spending the full timeout. lastDiffPct describes only the final sample pair. A moved/minimized target requires a fresh observation.
+**Downloads:** resolve the real download directory from `HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders` (`{374DE290-123F-4565-9164-39C4925E467B}`) — a redirected profile puts it outside `%USERPROFILE%`. Edge refuses some HTTP documents with "无法安全下载" and leaves a small `.crdownload` stub; there may be no Keep option. Attempt the download at most twice, then report the block and use an already-downloaded copy or the site's preview if it exists; do not loop on the security UI. Preserve the breakpoint and live cycle; elapsed time cannot release a human brake. Use computer_wait for transient readiness; selftest/calibration are for observed input-delivery or coordinate problems, not every failure.

-IME rule (generalizes to every editor you cannot read back): when an IME is active, unicode keystroke injection is intercepted and REORDERED — measured 2026-11-04, a 37-char CJK message went out garbled with dropped and doubled punctuation. Text delivery into unreadable editors goes through the clipboard (`computer_type` auto-pastes; or `computer_clip` + `ctrl+v`). NEVER blind-send after paste: OCR or crop the input box, compare character by character, then press enter. `clipboardRestore:"skipped-unpreservable-clipboard"` means the previous clipboard was overwritten — tell the human if it mattered.

 ## Reading change and waiting
 
-`computer_wait {mode:"change"}` returns `changeBounds` (absolute px) — WHERE the change landed. A diff at the input area means the box cleared (message sent); the same-size diff blinking at one line is a caret. `mode:"stable"` returns `caretSteady:true` when the only motion is a ~1-2 Hz caret blink — treat it as settled and stop waiting. `computer_marks {uiaOnly:true}` pins the map to window+geometry when an animated neighbour keeps flipping the pixel sample (STALE_MARK loops); the click-time occlusion check still applies.

-A cold accessibility tree can initially expose only window chrome/an ancestor; use a point query and one deliberate re-observation after readiness before declaring absence. Filtered tree queries require `hwnd` (`UIA_SCOPE_REQUIRED` otherwise). Defaults are depth 6, 120 nodes and a 1200 ms soft budget; `budgetMs` can be 100–5000. `depth>6` or `maxNodes>300` requires an observed `anchor:"x,y"` in physical screen pixels inside that window, and starts at that element's subtree (`UIA_ANCHOR_REQUIRED` otherwise). An exact `id` does not bypass traversal limits. This rule applies to all applications and model routes. Budget metadata describes partial traversal; a single synchronous provider call may exceed the budget and remains covered by worker recovery. A truncated result proves neither absence nor uniqueness. Prefer an observed UIA target for actions; selector searches default to depth 6 and 300 nodes. Read [precision.md](references/precision.md) when focused queries, activation or input still fail.

 ## Human control and permission
 
-Cyan breathing means the user can freely use the keyboard and mouse. Initial observation is free. Deep-blue steady means input is being dispatched; deep-blue breathing means the agent needs the current page and pointer position preserved while checking or preparing the next step. Actual input retains this scene hold afterward. Use `computer_ctrl {action:"hold"}` before a position-sensitive readback; use `computer_ctrl {action:"free"}` as soon as remaining thinking/reading no longer depends on an unchanged desktop. These actions neither create a new cycle nor release a manual brake. Release the cycle when desktop work is complete.
+Initial observation is free; dispatching input and preserving the scene are the two held states described below. Use `computer_ctrl {action:"hold"}` before a position-sensitive readback and `{action:"free"}` as soon as thinking no longer needs an unchanged desktop; neither creates a cycle nor releases a manual brake. Release the cycle when desktop work is done.
+
+During acting/holding a compact tilted blue kite temporarily replaces the pointer; its tip is the exact native hotspot and its centre symbol follows recognized native shapes, neutral when unknown. Native cursor handles and visibility are preserved for cursor checks and screenshot burn-in, so tool images intentionally show the application cursor, not the kite. Free, handoff, pause and release restore native presentation; a short-lived visibility lease restores it if rendering or the worker stops. The symbol proves no target or effect.
+
+Before a new input call or coherent batch, a purple notice says "即将开始操作，请暂停键鼠": first countdown 1 second, later visible notices less than 3 minutes apart 0.1 second, and ≥3 minutes without one restores 1 second. Timing starts only after the notice is presented; the countdown creates no extra hold and leaves an existing hold in force. Pause, exit and cancellation remain effective. After one countdown the hands-off state is treated as continuous for 5 seconds, and every dispatched action slides that window: a continuous sequence therefore shows no further countdown of any duration, while a pause longer than 5 seconds lets it lapse and the next action warns again.
+
+During actuation or a retained hold, physical typing/clicks/scrolling yield control immediately; pointer movement has a 16-screen-pixel tolerance so jitter does not interrupt. Free-state input only invalidates old evidence and lights no takeover cue. After yielding, input continuing 2 seconds enters automatic waiting, and a held key/button is still active input; control returns only after all physical keys/buttons are released and 3 seconds pass with no physical events. The pale-yellow gradient breathes gently while waiting. Own and other injected events are not physical input.
+
+The wait is local — no model polling, no question card. HUMAN_REOBSERVE returns a nonterminal checkpoint with taskStatus:"continuing" and continuation.required:true: a temporary interruption has ENDED, so you MUST immediately obtain fresh target evidence, check any partial effect, and continue the original authorized task until complete. Do not abandon it, send a final wrap-up, or ask permission to resume after a handoff. A partial write is never blindly replayed; a batch preserves completed steps and supplies resumeFromActionIndex — inspect that step before continuing and treat earlier coordinates/marks/focus as stale. Ctrl+Esc overrides automatic waiting and still needs Ctrl+Alt+R; Ctrl+Alt+Q ends the cycle. Cancelling a Host turn cancels its in-flight/queued input and wait without creating a persistent STOP.
 
-During acting/holding, a compact tilted blue kite temporarily replaces the visible pointer; its tip is the exact native hotspot. Holding breathes; acting is steady. The small center symbol follows recognized native text/resize/etc. shapes; unknown stays neutral. Native cursor handles and logical visibility are preserved for cursor checks and screenshot burn-in, so tool images intentionally show the underlying application cursor rather than the excluded kite. Free, human handoff, pause and release restore native presentation. A separate short-lived visibility lease restores it when rendering or the worker stops. The visual symbol does not prove a target or effect.
+Only one agent may own a live cycle; ownership is isolated by session/agent and across worker processes, and stays reserved while that agent thinks or yields. Another agent must wait for release, then obtain its own fresh evidence — never clear the owner's pause, close its cycle, or reuse its focus/marks. An ownership refusal sends no input.
 
-Before a new input call or coherent batch, a purple notice says “即将开始操作，请暂停键鼠”. Its first countdown is 1 second; subsequent visible notices less than 3 minutes apart use 0.1 second. At least 3 minutes without a visible notice restores 1 second. Timing starts only after the notice is presented. The countdown itself creates no additional scene hold; an existing hold stays in force. Pause, exit and cancellation remain effective.

+- Ctrl+Esc is the ONLY physical shortcut that raises a persistent pause; plain Esc, typing, scrolling, pointer distance/frequency and the screen corner never do, and question/diagnostic holds are separate. These brakes refuse observation as well as input — wrap up from known facts and wait for Ctrl+Alt+R. Do not delete STOP or use a shell worker to evade the brake.
+- An agent-owned diagnostic pause uses `stop` with `temporary:true` and returns `pauseId`; only it permits observation then checked `recover` once its blocker is resolved (owner, target, credential, newer human input, pending approvals). Use ordinary stop/ask for handover or permission waits.

-- Ctrl+Esc is the only physical-input shortcut that raises a persistent human pause. Plain Esc, typing, scrolling, pointer distance/frequency and the screen corner never raise that pause. Explicit question/diagnostic holds remain separate. These brakes refuse observation as well as input; wrap up from known facts and wait for Ctrl+Alt+R. Do not delete STOP or use a shell worker to evade the brake.
-- An explicitly agent-owned diagnostic pause uses stop with temporary:true and returns pauseId. Only this pause permits observation followed by checked recover after its blocker is resolved. Owner, target, credential, newer human input and pending approvals are checked. Use ordinary stop/ask for a handover or permission wait.
-- Ctrl+Alt+Q ends the cycle and its listeners. No operation in that same turn reopens it. Only the first real plugin computer call of a later turn can open a new cycle. There is no resume tool action. Turn cancellation also stops ongoing input.
-- computer_ask pauses and raises DSH with a chat question card, with no countdown. The human selects then confirms: ② 放你走 is listed first/recommended and releases the ask brake; ① 让你停 retains it until Ctrl+Alt+R. Custom answers, dismissal, cancellation and tool-deadline cleanup release the ask brake; newer human stops/Q remain authoritative. Inspect keepPause and answered; silence itself supplies no answer or permission.
+The plugin's own window is refused by default: the host holds the human's approval cards, the question card and the Stop control, so a click there could approve the agent's own high-risk action. `HOST_DEBUG_GATE` is that refusal, and it is also the signal that a self-iteration task (debugging another plugin inside THIS instance) needs two gates opened BY THE HUMAN:
 
-The first actual plugin call, including observation, opens the cycle and listeners. A turn boundary alone does not. Release closes only desktop control and leaves the conversation running; Q ends the owning turn. A pause keeps the cycle. Free desktop is cyan/breathing; preserving the scene is deep-blue/breathing; preparation is purple with the adaptive 1-second/0.1-second countdown; actual actuation is deep-blue/steady; human input pale-yellow/slow-breathing; paused red/steady; asking red/fast-breathing. No cycle means no border/listeners. Normal completion has no exit-confirmation card. For diagnosing lifecycle or attention behavior, read [lifecycle.md](references/lifecycle.md).

+Neither gate can be opened from a tool call — do not try: the switch lives host-side and the permission is the composer pill. When a refusal happens the human gets one notice card (at most once per 10 minutes) naming both gates. With both open, driving the Harness window is allowed and every action is audited as `HOST-CONTROL`; `close`, `minimize` and `hide` of the Harness remain refused even then, and observation never needs the gates. A worker launched without host identity (CLI, MCP) also refuses those three on a Harness window unless the caller passes `confirmHost:true`.
