26 → 52px, 14 → 28px for the sparkle. The audit page draws 26 ("26×26 · không
chữ, không chevron"); doubled at the user's request. Still half the area of the
84×64 button it replaced: 2704 vs 5376px².
Four checks pinned the old number. Three now read the size the design actually
claims rather than a literal — square, at least 24px to hit, and smaller than
what it replaced — and check_design_parity records the deviation in its item
label instead of scoring 52px against a 26px expectation.
The fourth attempt was worse than the literal: I had check_layout_geometry
import _DOT and compare against it, which makes it unfailable — change the
constant and the expectation moves too. check_probes_bite caught that, reporting
that doubling _DOT again left the checker green. It now bounds the range
(24..64, square), which the mutation does break.
24/24 checkers pass; check_multi_screen took the teardown segfault once in three
standalone runs.

Settings sat 7px further in than the Dashboard/Giám sát rows above it — its
QSS gave it a 6px side margin where those rows start at the rail edge. At the
collapsed 54px width that put its icon near the middle of the rail, which is
what "thu gọn menu lại ra giữa" was describing. Icon and label now start on
the same x as the rows, open and collapsed, in both themes.
The help panel's transcript is rendered HTML, so switching language re-labelled
the chrome but left the greeting — and the "AI Assistant" speaker label — in
whatever language the panel was built in. retranslate() now rewrites the
greeting (matched by identity, so a real reply is never touched) and re-renders.
The sparkle is #FDBE59, sampled from the audit page's own render. Its CSS says
.spark{color:#0F9B8A}, but the glyph is the ✨ emoji and a colour emoji ignores
CSS colour, so the page has always drawn a gold star.
Behind all three: MainWindow does not style itself — run() calls
app.setStyleSheet — so 12 of 13 checkers were measuring a window with no
padding, margins or borders. Every QSS-driven layout bug was invisible to them,
and an unstyled window reported an icon drift that does not exist. Added
_apply_theme() and wired it through.
Two checker repairs that followed:
· check_no_hscroll flagged the 9pt dialogs on sizeHintForColumn(0), which
returns 182px at 9pt, 11pt and 14pt alike. Nothing was clipped. It now
compares the painted text against the width actually on screen, and fails
on a squeezed list (24 combos) where the old test passed.
· the checkers print Vietnamese and died mid-report on a cp932 console.
New: check_rail_align (icons hold one line, both themes, both states) and
check_help_i18n (transcript follows the language). Both verified to fail
without their fix.
15/15 checkers pass. check_nav and check_design_parity segfault in Qt teardown
roughly one run in three — pre-existing, after the verdict prints, and it
happens with or without the theme change.

Five rounds, each looking from an angle the previous one cannot:
1. text — every "Thay đổi" bullet on the page vs a probe (existing)
2. geometry — check_layout_geometry.py: reading order of the rail, section
order down Monitoring, which side each pane is on, and the size
relationships the design names (hero card, 26px dot)
3. inventory— check_controls_alive.py: every control in controls.json still
present in the built app, attributed to its owning CLASS via the
baseline commit (a file holds several classes, so a per-file
check reported eight dialog controls as missing)
4. eyes — rendered screens read against the wireframes
5. adversarial — check_probes_bite.py: break one feature at a time and fail if
the matching check still passes
What rounds 4 and 5 caught, which 1-3 could not:
* Schedule showed six of seven lanes; the seventh needed a horizontal
scroll. The design says "giữ đủ 7 lane, thu hẹp cho vừa một màn". Lane
minimum width 190 → 150, so 7 × 150 + gaps fits a 1280 window. Round 2 now
measures this instead of relying on someone noticing.
* check_design_parity ALWAYS returned 0. It was a report, not a check: every
probe in it was incapable of failing, so a regression would print on screen
and still exit green. It now exits non-zero when anything is CHUA — which
is what let round 5 detect the two mutations it had been sleeping through.
Also fixed in the harness itself: it rewrote line endings while restoring
mutated files (read_text/write_text translate both ways), and it compared the
tree against "clean" rather than against its own starting state.
All ten checkers green by exit code.
