MINOR: The PR body's test and coverage evidence no longer matches head, and the coverage figure excludes most of what this round changed.

The body says "33 test files" and "19 of 26 files"; head has 36 test files and 27 sources. It says "220 tests per variant" while the head commit message says 255 green. More importantly, QuickBuildRuntime*, ResourceStore* and StatusOverlay* are all on this exclusion list, so the quoted 93.2% line / 95.8% branch covers none of the failReload dispatch change, the attachedAppResources latch, or the observer-capture fix -- four of the five items in the last round. QA reads this section as the evidence ledger REVIEW.md asks for.

Refresh the counts and say which of the round's fixes are inside the measured set and which are device-only.

MINOR: still open at 3aad795, and the figures are not merely stale - they describe the branch's first commit.

At cfbbca1, the first commit on this branch, the tree had exactly 33 test files, 220 @test methods and 26 files under src/main/java - which is what the description still says. Head has 36, 256 and 27, so the per-variant count is 256 (1,536 executions across six variants, not 1,320) and the measured set is 20 of 27. The JaCoCo exclusion list (lines 77-91) is unchanged, so ResourceStore, QuickBuildRuntime and StatusOverlay - the three most heavily rewritten files on the branch, about 61% of the post-initial churn - all sit outside the quoted percentages. QA reads that section as the evidence ledger REVIEW.md asks for.

Refresh the counts against head and say which of the round's fixes are inside the measured set.

Not fixed in code: this is the PR description, which we are updating separately rather than in the branch. Flagging it here so the thread is not read as ignored.

Current numbers on this branch: 38 suites, 271 tests per variant (1,626 executions), 93.3% line and 95.3% branch over 22 of 29 files, with the same 7 exclusions. Newly covered: FirstFrameGate and SwapAckGate; AssetExtractor, BootProbation and PayloadPersistence gained cases in their existing suites. Still excluded: QuickBuildRuntime, QuickBuildClient, ResourceStore.

MINOR: Still not matching head, and this is the third round on the same paragraph.

At 45a5afe the tree has 40 test files and 278 @Test methods; the body says 38 files and 271 tests per variant, so the per-variant count is 278 and the six-variant total 1,668, not 1,626. There are no parameterized, repeated, nested or disabled tests in the module, so the @Test count is the executed count. The rest of the paragraph does hold: 29 files under src/main/java, the same 7 exclusions at build.gradle.kts:73-87 leaving 22 measured, and FirstFrameGate and SwapAckGate inside that set.

One more thing missing from the same section: REVIEW.md asks for the font-scale result in the PR, and the body has no line for it. The measurements exist - they are in the T20 thread, captured on an A56 at 1.0 and 2.0 - so this is a copy, not new work. QA reads this section as the evidence ledger.

Body updated at this head, counts from the tree: 43 test files, 291 @Test, 0 parameterized/repeated/nested/disabled, 29 sources, the same 7 exclusions; suite re-run on the rebased tip 307e3d6, 291 tests, 0 failures. Coverage 93.4% line / 95.3% branch. The font-scale line is now in the body: the crash banner from the earlier A56 capture (1.0 = 2 rendered lines, 2.0 = 4, cap 6), and the mixed-state banner captured on the A06 at 1.0 and 2.0 on build 2747561c9 (pre-rebase), full text, nothing clipped.

Restrict access to QuickBuildKeepAliveService.

onBind() returns its binder to every caller, and the manifest declares no permission. Any installed app can bind to the service and keep the proxy process out of the cached-app freezer. Authorize only CoGo with a permission or caller check.

Restrict QuickBuildKeepAliveService access so untrusted installed apps cannot
bind to it: define or reuse a signature-level permission and declare it on the
service, or enforce an equivalent CoGo caller check in onBind(). Ensure only
CoGo-authorized callers receive the binder while preserving the service’s
existing behavior for authorized callers.

Not taking it. The exposure is real but bounded at keeping a developer's own proxy app unfrozen, and the returned object is a bare Binder with no transactions. Both remedies are unavailable: Binder.getCallingUid() inside onBind() returns this app's own uid, and a signature permission cannot work because CoGo is release-signed while the proxy app uses the on-device debug keystore. onUnbind returns false, so handing a caller null would poison the cached binding and break the keep-alive outright.
