Windows refuses file symlinks with ERROR_PRIVILEGE_NOT_HELD (1314) unless
the test process is elevated or Developer Mode is enabled, which broke
non-admin local runs. Share a helper that reports the missing privilege so
the two symlink tests skip only the symlink-dependent assertions.
* fix(windows): prefer pwsh for the default pane shell
Windows panes launched Windows PowerShell 5.1 (powershell.exe) whenever [terminal] default_shell was unset, ignoring PowerShell 7 even when pwsh.exe resolved on PATH. Resolve the unset default against PATH and prefer pwsh.exe, falling back to the inbox powershell.exe. An explicit default_shell still wins.
* fix(windows): validate pwsh before using it as the default shell
portable-pty resolves the configured shell with Path::exists and passes that path to CreateProcessW, which does not fall through to later PATH entries. Selecting an invalid pwsh.exe would therefore break new panes instead of falling back. Only prefer a pwsh.exe that starts with the PE MZ magic, and return its path so the validated binary is the one launched.
* fix(windows): validate the full PE header before preferring pwsh
Checking only the DOS MZ signature still accepted truncated images, DLLs, and foreign-architecture binaries. Because portable-pty passes the resolved path straight to CreateProcessW without trying later PATH entries, validate the PE signature, the COFF header (machine, executable-image bit, not a DLL, section count), and the optional header before preferring pwsh.exe.
* fix(windows): accept native ARM64 pwsh and validate the section table
Herdr ships an x64 Windows build that also runs on Windows ARM64 under x64 emulation, so cfg!(target_arch) cannot tell whether a native ARM64 pwsh.exe is launchable. Accept every executable machine type Windows supports instead of rejecting ARM64 on the x86_64 build. Also bound-check the section table (40 bytes per declared section) after the optional header so a truncated table falls back instead of being selected.
* fix(windows): detect the native host machine for pwsh compatibility
Machine compatibility was derived from cfg!(target_arch), which reports the emulated x64 process on Windows ARM64, and then briefly accepted ARM64 on every host. Read the native machine with IsWow64Process2 in the platform layer instead: ARM64 Windows accepts ARM64/x64/x86 images, x64 accepts x64/x86, and x86 accepts only x86.
backup_preserves_legacy relied on a freshly created temp file already having a legacy DACL (D:(...)). Directories that grant inheritable ACEs produce D:AI(...) instead, so the fixture failed before exercising the backup path. Install the legacy DACL explicitly, preserving the existing ACEs while clearing the auto-inherit and protected control bits.
Root cause:
The API socket is bound before App evaluates session restore. Waiting only
for that socket lets the late-session test inject its file during startup,
so the server may load it normally instead of exercising late-file recovery.
The missing backup then fails an otherwise correct persistence assertion.
Fix:
Wait for a read-only workspace-list request to pass through App and assert
that the workspace list is still empty before injecting the session file.
Keep the existing autosave deadline and byte-for-byte backup assertion.
Add no sleeps, retries, longer timeouts or production changes.
Validation:
The original assertion fails with unchanged master. With the barrier, five
independent runs pass. Full native just ci passes 3624 Rust tests with six
default skips, formatting, all-target Clippy, 112 maintenance tests, six
architecture tests and 39 integration-asset tests. All seven docs contract
tests pass. Local Windows cross-lint was not run because its SDK is absent.

The v0.8.2 Windows archive shipped an herdr.exe that imported
VCRUNTIME140.dll and the api-ms-win-crt-* Universal CRT, none of which the
archive provides. Static CRT linkage was restored for x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
in .cargo/config.toml, but nothing verified the packaged executable, so the
dependency could silently regress.
Parse the PE import and delay-import tables and reject herdr.exe when it
depends on the dynamic Microsoft C/C++ runtime, including release and debug
variants. Check the input while staging and re-check the staged executable
before archiving so a direct archive cannot bypass the guard.

refs #4153
Root cause:
A no-focus pane move can remove the source tab without changing the
server's numeric workspace and tab coordinates. PaneMove is not classified
as a topology change, so a client viewing that tab retains its deleted ID.
Its target lookup falls back to the server default and can follow a later,
unrelated focus change instead of staying in the source workspace.
Fix:
Include PaneMove in the existing client-location reconciliation path.
Extend the existing focus-guard test with a client on the removed tab and
verify that a later server-default change cannot move its view. Preserve
the other client's view and existing error, no-op and zoom assertions.
Validation:
The minimized regression fails five times on PR #4159's unchanged head and
passes five times with the one-line fix. All 19 pane-move tests, native
lint, maintenance, architecture and integration-asset checks pass.
Full native just ci on the publication branch, including the unchanged
prerequisites from #4159 and #4168, passes 3585 Rust tests with six default
skips plus lint, 106 maintenance, six architecture and 39 integration-asset
tests. All seven docs contract tests pass. Local Windows cross-lint was
not run because its SDK is unavailable.
No geometry policy, protocol or periodic rendering behavior is changed.
Root cause:
The handoff test starts an agent immediately after workspace creation,
before the new shell is necessarily ready. The reconnect test assumes a
fixed sidebar row and searches raw ANSI output for text that can arrive
as separate incremental cell updates.
Fix:
Wait for a shell builtin to write a readiness marker before sending the
single raw agent.start request. Exercise the gap with a delayed shell.
Locate the recovered workspace in the rendered sidebar and check the
reconstructed screen for selection and input, including overlay borders.
Do not extend existing timeouts or add retries that hide failures.
Validation:
All 25 affected group and helper tests pass. Ten repeated rounds of the
two runtime tests and the row helper pass, for 30 test executions without
retries. Standalone native just ci passes 3582 Rust tests with six default
skips, formatting, all-target Clippy, 106 maintenance tests, six architecture
tests and 39 integration-asset tests. Windows cross-lint was not run because
its SDK is not installed.
