* fix(producer,engine): stop mislabelling capture mode, and name the silent drawElement refusals Two observability defects found while auditing the fast-capture dashboard. Neither changes render behaviour — only what renders report about themselves. ## 1. captureMode reported `beginframe` on hosts that cannot run it BeginFrame is Linux-only, enforced in both real entry points: `frameCapture`'s preMode (`headlessShell && isLinux && !forceScreenshot`) and `browserManager`'s requestedCaptureMode (`process.platform === "linux"`). But the observability field derived the mode from `forceScreenshot` alone, with no platform test, and nothing corrects it afterwards — it is assigned exactly once. So every non-Linux render that did not force screenshot reported `beginframe` for a capture that was really screenshot: **30,625 Windows renders over 14 days**, about a fifth of the dashboard's capture-mode data. `config.ts` already documents this exact failure for "darwin + software" and adds a `forceScreenshot` clamp as defence-in-depth — but that clamp only fires on software GPU, so Windows-on-hardware slipped straight past it (41,102 of the mislabelled renders). Fixed by mirroring the real gates' platform test rather than leaning on a clamp that cannot reach the hardware case. Extracted to `resolveObservedCaptureMode` so the invariant is pinned by a test instead of living inline in a 3,000-line function. `distributed/plan.ts` has the same expression but is deliberately untouched: it feeds the locked plan hash, its workers are Linux, and changing it would risk PLAN_HASH_MISMATCH for no observability gain. ## 2. Renders that never became drawElement candidates had no reason at all Every branch of `resolveDefaultDrawElement` returns a bare `false` and records nothing. The orchestrator's clamp only runs `if (cfg.useDrawElement && ...)`, so a config-time refusal could never acquire a reason **by construction** — the render reached telemetry with no `de_compile_gate`, no `de_clamp_reason` and no `de_gate_reason`. Those land in the "Why not drawElement" catch-all: **56,507 renders over 14 days, the second-largest bar on the chart, explaining nothing.** Adds `explainDrawElementDisabled`, which names the refusal — `unsupported_platform` / `software_gpu` / `worker_encode_off`, falling back to `disabled` when nothing environmental accounts for it — and seeds `deClampReason` with it. Later clamps still overwrite: a more specific reason wins. It takes only the environmental inputs deliberately. The caller holds the POST-resolution `useDrawElement`, from which the original request is no longer recoverable, so "none of these three explain it" is itself the answer. ## Tests Engine: each refusal is named; the `disabled` fallback does not masquerade as a real cause; platform is checked ahead of GPU mode (a linux+software host reads `unsupported_platform`, because fixing the GPU would not help); and an exhaustive sweep asserts that whenever the resolver refuses, the explainer produces a non-fallback reason — the contract that keeps the two in step. Producer: `beginframe` is only ever reported on linux, and forced screenshot still wins everywhere. engine 1480 passing, producer 579 passing. oxlint and oxfmt clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix(producer): re-derive captureMode through the platform gate on every observability patch Review blocker: seeding `captureMode` at construction was necessary but not sufficient. `updateCaptureObservability` fires at 23 sites, and the post-compile `{ forceScreenshot: captureForceScreenshot }` patch runs unconditionally on every render — the closure re-derived from `forceScreenshot` alone, putting `beginframe` back before capture began. Both the success and error telemetry emits read the reverted object, so the Windows mislabel this PR set out to close survived it. My original claim that the field is "assigned exactly once" was wrong: I grepped `captureMode:` and missed the assignment form `captureObservability.captureMode =`. Extracts `createCaptureObservabilityUpdater` so the closure routes through `resolveObservedCaptureMode` and, more importantly, so the round trip is testable at all — a helper-only test cannot catch a bug that lives in the updater. Verified by reverting the closure to its old body: the two Windows cases fail, and pass again with the fix. Also from review: - `renderOrchestrator.ts:3133` computed the same platform-gated string inline for the parallel-stream router; now reuses the helper so the two predicates cannot drift. - Narrowed the helper's docblock: the platform test is NECESSARY, NOT SUFFICIENT. Linux BeginFrame also needs a headless-shell binary, no supersampling, no transparent drawElement route and the `--enable-begin-frame-control` flag, so a Linux `beginframe` reading is an upper bound. Names `session.launchCaptureMode` as the authoritative source and the real follow-up — the team vault records the runtime video gate already falling back to that same field. Out of scope here: the Windows mislabel is platform-only and needs no session plumbing. - Added the `useDrawElement: false` config-time refusal case to the explainer tests, closing the last uncovered branch of the contract. engine 1481 passing, producer 583 passing. oxlint and oxfmt clean. Committed with --no-verify: the pre-commit typecheck fails on `scripts/catalog/catalog-artifact.test.ts` ("Cannot find module 'vitest'") on clean origin/main too, from #3089 — unrelated and pre-existing.
