First-use history and reference Services

This batch connects five existing native workflows to selected-item macOS Services outside previously watched Finder roots. It does not certify their full dialog parity or physical Finder integration.

Pinned source and selection

The source revision is 7338078f8ddd924b8cddee35f512f2286072136d:

The five declarations append to the previous forty-two, preserving their order. RefLog, Browse references and Repo-browser advertise public.folder; Revision Graph and Daemon advertise public.item. Every new Service requires one explicit normalized item. This is a macOS Services adaptation: there is no independent Explorer background-folder context. Multiple selected roots are refused rather than arbitrarily choosing the first. There is no new restriction based on merge, bisect or HEAD beyond the source clauses.

The private Services pasteboard, literal Unicode/path spelling, typed URL envelope, request bounds and cold/standalone startup ownership remain shared with the other Services. Generic provider dispatch resolves the new command enum cases. A URL carries a selection, never repository authorization. An owned chooser or existing primary repository grant must cover it before discovery. Linked metadata grants do not substitute for a containing repository grant. Mixed repositories cannot silently retarget an accepted operation to the workspace's current root.

Native workflow family

The selected command opens the existing RefLog, Browse References, Repo-browser, Revision Graph or Daemon window. It retains source artwork, native controls, menus, configuration and Git operations. RefLog begins at HEAD and the browsers retain their existing revision navigation. Graph uses its configured graph font and source display settings. Daemon retains warning/Proceed/Abort, the saved warning decision and actual owned server progress; Services does not introduce a second execution path or change its default listen interfaces.

The implementation batch includes captured repository/access/preferences, existing-window reuse eligibility, actual native presentation, asynchronous child handoffs and owner/cancellation/Quit drainage. A retired cached controller cannot be shown again while old work drains; old callbacks cannot remove a replacement. An accepted workflow remains attached to its original repository if the workspace opens a different one. Closing or cancelling preparation fences late authorization and does not create a child window. Actual workers and sheets remain owned through completion even after forced UI closure.

macOS manages Services visibility and ordering and supplies no supported per-entry Explorer-style icon field. Finder Sync continues to use the existing source icons and menu placement inside watched roots. Native windows retain their icon-bearing menus. This batch does not add right-drag interception.

Validation and remaining work

The dated checkpoint records 67 distinct Core methods and eight native scenarios passing across the recorded focused repairs. The original 43-method request/source group passed first; the confirmed folder-state defect then received its new regression and affected collection/query/status-policy checks, 24 methods. Passed unrelated groups were not repeated. The initial app compile needed the Branch/Tag pending-work accessor; the first exit-zero repair log retains contradictory compiler diagnostic noise. The final affected build exited zero without those messages.

The new native provider passed before routing exposed the folder aggregation bug. Fixture repairs corrected Swift visibility/preference access and supplied the real built graph helper to the unbundled receiver. Source gates, geometry, parent/child ownership and actual worker assertions were retained. Only failed or unrun groups repeated. All five actual dialogs, bare/tracked/added/untracked scopes, accepted preferences/grants, later Log actions, actual Filter/Save sheets, real held Git reads, historical Save writing and a socket-free injected Daemon runner were checked. The original provider and older graph-save ownership cases also passed.

All ten receiver attempts, including failures, are independently absent. Private helper identities are verified before any cleanup; cleanup needed after a success fails the check. No new screenshots or installed app activation were performed: these are hidden/offscreen workflow checks of existing native dialogs. Source and built declarations match all 47 entries and bundled Help matches its saved bytes. Earlier Services/dialog checkpoints do not independently certify this family.

Physical Services activation/menu gestures, signed sandbox grants, minimum macOS and Intel execution, keyboard/VoiceOver/complete layout acceptance, current hosted CI and App Store distribution remain separate gates. Deferred arbitrary-file comparison and patch/export delivery Services remain outstanding first-use workflow families; their existing in-app operations are not claimed missing.
