* feat(native): admit bounded MIPS ELF analysis through Ghidra
Retain MIPS ELF identity and interpretation through Evidence and snapshots.
Keep provider admission bounded to ELF32 ET_EXEC o32 MIPS32r2, without
implicitly widening Hopper, IDA or Windows P0 coverage. Add source-owned
fixtures and an optional real-provider verifier; real Ghidra verification
remains pending in this contribution environment.
Refs #718
* fix(ghidra): bound MIPS floating-point mode admission
Reject explicit EF_MIPS_FP64 and EF_MIPS_NAN2008 declarations until their
semantics have a real-provider verification lane. Add PSP PRX/Allegrex,
o64/EABI and floating-point-mode refusal regressions. Document that the
header gate is not a full .MIPS.abiflags check and advance the profile lane
identity to invalidate older interpretation bindings.
Validation: 24 standalone checks against the transpiled production profile
module passed; the two new flag cases failed before this change. Clang 17
and LLD compiled the source-owned fixture for both endian targets. The
complete Vitest/typecheck suite and real Ghidra verification remain pending.
Refs morluto/rea#718; PSP support remains follow-up morluto/rea#1330.
* fix(native): validate MIPS ABI records before Ghidra admission
Read bounded ELF32 PT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS and SHT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS records through
the already-open target handle. Preserve declared ABI fields, reject
conflicting/duplicate/truncated records, and keep missing records unknown.
Wire inspection into target resolution before provider selection. Require
compatible declarations for the deliberately narrow Ghidra lane and bind
all ABI fields into profile identity (v3) for snapshot invalidation.
Clang 17 produced eight source-owned fixtures spanning both byte orders
and FPXX/FP32/FP64/soft-float modes with identical ELF header flags. The
new reader and policy distinguish them. 24 focused regression test bodies
passed after TypeScript transpilation using node:test in place of Vitest;
strict isolated TypeScript checking of the reader and target/result types
passed. These are limited checks, not full Vitest/project typechecking or
real-Ghidra verification, which remain pending.
Advances morluto/rea#718. PSP/Allegrex remains morluto/rea#1330 follow-up.
* fix(native): repair MIPS integration boundaries and test resolver behavior
Keep ELF targets out of Hopper Mach-O preparation and scope existing PE fixture types correctly. Move ABI tests into the filesystem boundary lane, use shared cleanup, add resolver regressions, apply the pinned formatter, and register the real MIPS verifier through the existing package-command pattern. Validated with repository-pinned Node/npm, check:ci, actual focused Vitest, discovery and docs:check. Real Ghidra conformance remains pending.
* fix(test): honor caller-selected JDK in real MIPS verification
* test(native): strengthen MIPS Ghidra conformance
Cross-check the source-owned fixture with bounded GNU readelf inspection, compare production ELF/ABI interpretation and independent symbol addresses, and verify effective Ghidra language/compiler identity through existing public operations. Add a source-owned fixed-encoding probe for immediate and conditional branch checks plus global/string byte assertions.
Add 16 assertion/producer-boundary regression cases without widening production admission, changing provider contracts, or introducing proprietary dependencies. Local focused suite: 99 passed, one existing root-permission test skipped. Typecheck, lint/module boundaries, formatting and 700-file discovery pass; full hosted checks and real Ghidra verification remain pending for this checkpoint.
* fix(ghidra): preserve native-tool architecture checks after MIPS integration
The conflict-free upstream merge failed TypeScript compilation because includes on the union of MIPS-only and other architecture arrays requires never. Use equality-based membership without casts or changing accepted native hosts. Extend the existing native-decompiler rejection table with a MIPS executable at a Linux x64 tool path; retain upstream FAT and unknown-header behavior. Hosted verification follows this commit; no success is claimed yet.

On macOS the default workspace root is os.tmpdir() under /var/folders,
and /var is a symlink to /private/var. idalib-mcp reports the canonical
input path from idb_open/idb_list, while REA compared it against the
uncanonicalized private copy with normalize(), so every headless IDA
analysis failed its identity check (surfacing as unreadable_output) and
the spawned idalib worker was never released.
Resolve the workspace root with realpath() when allocating the private
workspace so the input path REA sends already matches what upstream
reports.

Reject omitted segment bounds, procedure classification and body facts, unresolved-call observations, dossier facets, and Ghidra parameter flow metadata. Providers emit explicit nulls for unsupported facets. Verify those unknowns in the real Hopper workflow.
BREAKING CHANGE: Provider analysis outputs must explicitly supply metadata previously repaired with defaults; unsupported nullable facets must be reported as null.
Deliver complete Evidence directly through MCP with required nullable analysis profiles and immutable per-server delivery settings. Bind selected environments at construction and require typed cleanup outcomes with retained retry ownership.
Remove test-only routing, duplicate session and snapshot metadata, producer-field repairs, and ambiguous provider arguments. Separate artifact byte identity from occurrence classification and retain typed source-map and partial native facts across CLI, MCP, and verifier consumers.
BREAKING CHANGE: obsolete Evidence envelopes, session aliases, incomplete snapshots, and missing normalized producer facts are no longer accepted.
Every configuration failure projected the same message, "REA configuration
is invalid. Run `rea doctor` and fix the reported setting.", with no
details. The environment parser discarded the issue that names the variable
(for example `REA_GHIDRA_NATIVEAOT_JAR must be absolute`), and doctor can
report healthy for that environment, so neither the CLI, the MCP startup
message, nor doctor told callers which setting to correct.
ConfigurationError now carries the rejected settings and their constraints
(never their values). The projection names them in its message, lists them
in `details.settings`, and asks the caller to correct those settings where
REA is started. Errors without a named setting keep the previous message.
Fixes#1184
