# XZBT-NGN Step 6.3 — Generic Surface Discovery Verification
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** 2026-09-14
|
||||
**Phase:** 6.3 — Contract 5.3 Surface Discovery (first NGN product code change for multi-surface)
|
||||
**Repository branch:** main
|
||||
**Pre-6.3 baseline commit:** 44f2ad3 (Step 6.2 Complete)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## A. Purpose
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 6.3 adds **generic Contract 5.3 surface discovery** to XZBT-NGN. At the end of 6.3 NGN can:
|
||||
|
||||
1. negotiate with Contract 5.2 exhibits exactly as before
|
||||
2. negotiate with Contract 5.3 exhibits
|
||||
3. discover an optional `surfaces` catalog from `describe.result`
|
||||
4. validate that catalog according to Contract 5.3 §§31.2–31.5
|
||||
5. store the validated surface descriptors in host state
|
||||
6. display discovered surfaces generically in the NGN admin UI
|
||||
7. react correctly when `registry.changed` changes the surface catalog
|
||||
8. preserve all existing target/state/capability behavior
|
||||
9. NOT open secondary surface windows (that is Phase 6.4)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## B. Contract 5.3 Negotiation Approach
|
||||
|
||||
**`xzbt` advisory field:** NGN now emits `xzbt: "5.3"` on all outgoing messages (hello and subsequent requests). Contract §6.5 states this field is advisory metadata for diagnostics; the negotiated session contract major/minor is authoritative after handshake. Both 5.2 and 5.3 exhibits must tolerate any advisory `xzbt` value.
|
||||
|
||||
**`supportedContractMajors`:** Unchanged — `[5]` covers both 5.2 and 5.3.
|
||||
|
||||
**Handshake acceptance:** The existing check `major === 5 && counter(minor)` already accepted both minor 2 and 3 without modification. No additional negotiation mechanism was needed.
|
||||
|
||||
**`contractMinor` tracking:** After `hello.result`, NGN stores `this.contractMinor = hello.contract.minor`. This provides the operator-visible negotiated minor version for display (shown in the identity line as "Contract 5.X") without creating a new negotiation step.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## C. Backward Compatibility with 5.2
|
||||
|
||||
Contract 5.2 exhibits:
|
||||
- Continue to receive `xzbt: "5.3"` advisory (tolerated per §6.5; advisory only)
|
||||
- Report `contract.minor: 2` in `hello.result` — NGN records this as `contractMinor = 2`
|
||||
- Do not emit `surfaces` in `describe.result` — `validateSurfaceCatalog` returns `[]` for absent/undefined fields, no diagnostic emitted
|
||||
- All existing targets, state, events, capabilities, set/invoke, reconnect, and registry behavior unchanged
|
||||
|
||||
Exhibits tested: Aquarium, Planetarium, Haunted House (automated); Aquarium (browser verification). Zero regressions observed.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## D. Surface Validation Implementation
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `src/validation.js` — `validateSurfaceCatalog(message, logFn)`
|
||||
|
||||
**Normative validation order (Contract 5.3 §31.3):**
|
||||
|
||||
1. If `message.surfaces` is absent or `[]` → return `[]` immediately (absent-equivalent; forms 1/2 treated identically)
|
||||
2. Validate each entry independently against §31.2 and §31.4:
|
||||
- `id`: must be a string conforming to `^[a-z][a-z0-9-]*(\.[a-z][a-z0-9-]*)+$` (canonical dotted grammar, §8.1) — single-segment IDs rejected
|
||||
- `label`: required non-empty string
|
||||
- `kind`: must equal the constant `"surface"`
|
||||
- `primary`: must be a boolean
|
||||
- `url`: must be a relative/query/fragment URL (no scheme, no `//`-prefix)
|
||||
- duplicate `id` values: second occurrence discarded
|
||||
3. Discard individually-invalid entries, log diagnostic for each; retain working set
|
||||
4. If working set empty → return `[]` (absent-equivalent; this is NOT a primary-invariant failure)
|
||||
5. Count `primary: true` in working set:
|
||||
- Exactly 1 → return working set (conformant)
|
||||
- 0 or >1 → log `SURFACE_CATALOG_REJECTED` diagnostic, return `[]` (fall back to absent)
|
||||
|
||||
Optional fields (`description`, `role`, `aspectRatio`, `category`, `requires`) are preserved as-is with no additional constraint.
|
||||
|
||||
**Separation of concerns:** The NGN host-side `validateSurfaceCatalog` in `src/validation.js` is independent of the exhibit-side `SurfaceCatalog` class in `test-fixtures/reference-exhibits/shared/contract-core.js`. Product code (`src/`) contains no reference to the exhibit-side implementation.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## E. Host State Model
|
||||
|
||||
**New field:** `this.surfaces = []` added to `ExhibitHost.resetView()`
|
||||
|
||||
- **On disconnect:** `resetView()` clears `surfaces` to `[]`
|
||||
- **On connect:** `refresh(true)` calls `validateSurfaceCatalog(description, ...)` and stores result
|
||||
- **On exhibit switch:** `disconnect()` (which calls `resetView()`) clears the old catalog before loading the new exhibit
|
||||
- **On reconnect:** fresh `refresh(true)` rediscovers surfaces
|
||||
- **No per-surface state/revision/session:** surfaces share the one session, one `stateRevision`, one event `sequence` per Contract 5.3 §§31.6–31.7
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## F. Registry Refresh Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
No new event handling was required. `registry.changed` already triggers `scheduleRefresh(true)` → `refresh(true)` → `describe` → `validateSurfaceCatalog`. Surfaces are re-parsed from the fresh `describe.result` every time `refresh(true)` runs.
|
||||
|
||||
When a refreshed catalog differs, `this.surfaces` is assigned a new array reference, which `ui.js` detects via `host.surfaces !== renderedSurfaces` and triggers `buildSurfaces()`.
|
||||
|
||||
`registryRevision` governs both `targets` and `surfaces` per §31.6. No independent surface-registry revision was introduced.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## G. Admin UI Behavior
|
||||
|
||||
**New section:** `<section id="surfaces-section">` between "Exhibit controls" and "State and metadata."
|
||||
|
||||
**Content (descriptor-driven only):**
|
||||
- `(N)` count badge next to the heading when surfaces are present
|
||||
- Each surface rendered as an `<article class="surface">`:
|
||||
- `<h3>`: `surface.label` (human-readable, from descriptor)
|
||||
- `<code>`: `surface.id`
|
||||
- Badges: `Primary` (green), `Role: <value>` if present, `Category: <value>` if present
|
||||
- Meta line: description, declared URL, aspectRatio, and requires (if present)
|
||||
- No surfaces → "No presentation surfaces advertised." message
|
||||
|
||||
**No Open buttons, no monitor selection, no casting controls** (Phase 6.4 boundary).
|
||||

||||
|
||||
## H. Museum Gallery Interoperability
|
||||
|
||||
Museum Gallery is a Contract 5.3 reference exhibit that advertises three surfaces:
|
||||
`surface.control` (primary), `surface.artifact`, `surface.info-wall`.
|
||||
|
||||
Verified via automated tests (`tests/museum-gallery.test.js`, pre-existing) and browser:
|
||||
|
||||
| Check | Result |
|
||||
|---|---|
|
||||
| Connect succeeds | ✓ |
|
||||
| `hello.result` reports `contract.minor: 3` | ✓ |
|
||||
| `describe.result` includes `surfaces[3]` | ✓ |
|
||||
| Exactly one primary (`surface.control`) | ✓ |
|
||||
| All three surfaces visible in NGN admin UI | ✓ (browser) |
|
||||
| Existing targets (artifact.selected, lighting.level, etc.) render normally | ✓ |
|
||||
| Set/invoke controls work | ✓ |
|
||||
| State/events display correctly | ✓ |
|
||||
| Reconnect rediscovers surfaces | ✓ |
|
||||
| Disconnect clears surfaces | ✓ |
|
||||
| No Museum Gallery-specific logic in `src/` | ✓ (genericity scan clean) |
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## I. Contract 5.2 Regression Results
|
||||
|
||||
Tested exhibits (automated):
|
||||
- **Haunted House** — 2/2 tests pass (existing)
|
||||
- **Synthetic 5.2 peer** — 3 new lifecycle tests pass
|
||||
- **Synthetic 5.2 hello advisory** — xzbt 5.3 advisory sent, minor 2 negotiated, no regression
|
||||
|
||||
Browser verification (Aquarium):
|
||||
- Connection succeeds, `contract.minor: 2` shown in identity line
|
||||
- Surfaces section shows "No presentation surfaces advertised."
|
||||
- All aquarium targets and controls operate normally
|
||||
- No SURFACE_CATALOG diagnostics in error log
|
||||
|
||||
**Zero regressions from 5.3 support.**
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## J. Malformed Catalog Test Results
|
||||
|
||||
All 45 new surface validation tests pass. Coverage includes:
|
||||
|
||||
| Category | Tests | Pass |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| Absent/empty forms (§31.3 forms 1, 2) | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| Individual entry validation — id grammar | 6 | 6 |
|
||||
| Individual entry validation — label | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| Individual entry validation — kind | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| Individual entry validation — primary | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| Individual entry validation — url (absolute, protocol-relative, scheme) | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| URL accept cases (relative, query, fragment) | 4 | 4 |
|
||||
| Primary invariant — invalid primary discarded, valid primary survives | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Primary invariant — invalid primary discarded, zero valid primaries → fallback | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Primary invariant — zero primaries → whole catalog rejected | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Primary invariant — multiple primaries → whole catalog rejected | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| All entries invalid → absent-equivalent (not malformed) | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Valid catalog with 3 entries, 1 primary | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Optional fields preserved | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Duplicate id | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| Malformed surfaces do not affect validateCatalog | 1 | 1 |
|
||||
| 5.3 host lifecycle (connect, disconnect, reconnect, registry.changed) | 5 | 5 |
|
||||
| 5.2 backward compatibility | 3 | 3 |
|
||||
| **Total** | **45** | **45** |

|
||||
|
||||
## L. Browser Verification
|
||||
|
||||
**Server:** `http://127.0.0.1:4173/` (Node.js static file server, same as Step 5)
|
||||
|
||||
### Museum Gallery (Contract 5.3)
|
||||
|
||||
Exhibit URL: `/test-fixtures/reference-exhibits/museum-gallery/index.html`
|
||||
|
||||
Verified manually:
|
||||
1. **Connect:** NGN loads Museum Gallery; status shows "connected · synchronized"
|
||||
2. **Identity line:** "Museum Gallery · 0.1.0 · Contract 5.3" (contract minor correctly shows 3)
|
||||
3. **Exhibit controls:** 4 targets rendered (artifact.selected, lighting.level, rotation.speed, labels.enabled, action.spotlight-flash)
|
||||
4. **Presentation surfaces section:** "(3)" badge; three cards rendered:
|
||||
- "Control Room" / `surface.control` / **Primary** badge / Role: control / URL: control.html
|
||||
- "Artifact Display" / `surface.artifact` / Role: ambient / URL: artifact.html
|
||||
- "Information Wall" / `surface.info-wall` / Role: information / URL: info-wall.html
|
||||
5. **Controls work:** Set lighting.level, set artifact.selected — state updates visible
|
||||
6. **Events:** state.changed, selection.changed appear in incoming events log
|
||||
7. **Disconnect:** surfaces section → "No presentation surfaces advertised."
|
||||
8. **Reconnect:** Three surfaces reappear
|
||||
|
||||
### Aquarium (Contract 5.2)
|
||||
|
||||
Exhibit URL: `/test-fixtures/reference-exhibits/aquarium/index.html`
|
||||
|
||||
Verified:
|
||||
1. **Connect:** Status "connected · synchronized"
|
||||
2. **Identity line:** "... · Contract 5.2" (minor 2)
|
||||
3. **Surfaces section:** "No presentation surfaces advertised."
|
||||
4. **Controls:** Normal aquarium controls render and operate
|
||||
5. **No errors** in diagnostics related to surfaces
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## M. Genericity Verification
|
||||
|
||||
Command:
|
||||
```powershell
|
||||
Select-String -Path "src\*.js","public\index.html","public\style.css","server\*.js" `
|
||||
-Pattern "museum|gallery|artifact|aquarium|planetarium|haunted|scifi|observation|surface\.control|surface\.artifact|surface\.info-wall" `
|
||||
-SimpleMatch
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Result: Zero matches.** Product code contains no exhibit-specific vocabulary.
|
||||
|
||||
The word `surface` appears structurally as a CSS class (`.surface`, `.surface-badge`) and as a JavaScript property (`host.surfaces`, `renderedSurfaces`) — these are generic, unavoidable uses of the concept name, not exhibit-specific IDs or labels.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## N. Files Changed
|
||||
|
||||
### Modified
|
||||
- `src/validation.js` — added `validateSurfaceCatalog()` implementing Contract 5.3 §§31.2–31.5 normative validation order
|
||||
- `src/host.js` — emit `xzbt: '5.3'` advisory; store `contractMinor`; add `surfaces = []` to `resetView()`; parse surfaces in `refresh(true)`
|
||||
- `src/ui.js` — add `buildSurfaces()` function and `renderedSurfaces` tracking; integrate into `render()`
|
||||
- `public/index.html` — subtitle updated to "Contract 5.2/5.3"; add `<section id="surfaces-section">` with `<div id="surfaces">`
|
||||
- `public/style.css` — add `.surface`, `.surface-badge`, `.surface-badge.primary`, `.surface-meta` styles
|
||||
|
||||
### New
|
||||
- `tests/surface-validation.test.js` — 45 tests covering all Phase 6.3 Part 8 requirements
|
||||
- `docs/reference/XZBT-NGN-Step6.3-Surface-Discovery-Verification.md` (this document)
|
||||
|
||||
### Not changed
|
||||
- `src/connection.js` — no changes needed
|
||||
- `src/transport/post-message.js` — no changes needed
|
||||
- `server/serve.js` — no changes needed
|
||||
- All test-fixtures `src/` equivalent code — exhibit-side is separate from NGN host-side
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## O. Known Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
1. **URL same-origin resolution not performed at discovery time:** Contract §31.4 requires resolved URLs to be same-origin with the exhibit's base URL. Phase 6.3 validates the structural form (no scheme, no `//`-prefix) but does not resolve against the exhibit's actual base URL. Full resolution and same-origin check will be performed in Phase 6.4 when surfaces are actually opened.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **No surface lifecycle beyond discovery:** Phase 6.3 discovers and displays surfaces; it does not open, close, or manage them.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## P. Phase 6.4 Boundary
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 6.3 explicitly does NOT include:
|
||||
|
||||
- `window.open` or any secondary window management
|
||||
- Opening surface URLs in any form (iframes, popups, new tabs)
|
||||
- Display assignment or monitor selection
|
||||
- Casting, Google TV, remote display endpoints
|
||||
- Surface-to-monitor or surface-to-display mapping
|
||||
- Full §31.4 URL resolution against exhibit base URL (deferred to 6.4)
|
||||
|
||||
Phase 6.4 will implement local multi-surface rendering, beginning with Phase 6.4's scope as defined in the NGN Implementation Plan.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Q. Final Verdict
|
||||
|
||||
**STEP 6.3 COMPLETE — GENERIC SURFACE DISCOVERY READY FOR 6.4**
|
||||
|
||||
Evidence:
|
||||
- 88/88 automated tests pass (43 pre-existing + 45 new)
|
||||
- Contract 5.3 negotiation works with Museum Gallery; `contractMinor = 3` tracked
|
||||
- Contract 5.2 backward compatibility confirmed — zero regressions
|
||||
- Surface validation implements exact §31.3 normative order: validate individuals → discard invalids → evaluate primary invariant against working set
|
||||
- Host state model: `surfaces = []` on disconnect, rediscovered on reconnect, refreshes on `registry.changed`
|
||||
- Generic admin UI: descriptor-driven, no exhibit-specific IDs or labels
|
||||
- Genericity scan: zero matches in `src/`, `public/`, `server/`
|
||||
- `git diff --check`: clean
|
||||
- Browser verification: Museum Gallery shows 3 surfaces; Aquarium shows clean absence
