Verdict

CLOSE both SVG element-opacity spellings: the CSS opacity property and
the SVG presentation attribute. The complete previously admitted
<alpha-value> grammar and applicability now preserve Chromium's compositing
route, and the temporary line-coverage refusal graduates.

The defect was a bad fold proxy. The compiler counted visible resolved draws,
but Chromium decides from recorded paint/effect structure. That made a
partially opaque stroked <line> fold element opacity into stroke opacity,
changing anti-aliased edge pixels that Chromium composites after coverage.

What landed

  • Keep visible draws, structural opacity passes, non-pruned geometry, and
    prior opacity effects as separate producer facts until the fold decision.
  • Treat a selected transparent colour, zero paint opacity, valid empty or
    transparent server, transparent pattern, and zero-ink dash as opacity
    passes. none, an invalid URL without fallback, and zero stroke width do
    not contribute a pass.
  • Preserve non-identity opacity on non-pruned paintless geometry as an outer
    fold barrier, including opacity zero, while zero-extent, empty, hidden, and
    display-pruned geometry remains inert.
  • Count a <line>'s selected fill structurally even though it has no visible
    fill area. Default fill plus stroke therefore uses the isolated layer;
    explicit fill="none" leaves the ordinary one-stroke fold.
  • Retain empty geometry nodes where context-paint and box ownership need them,
    without making zero-extent geometry an opacity subject.
  • Add four exact Chromium cells and focused contract laws, graduate the former
    line refusal, and update every evidence-backed record and generated count.
  • Reuse the existing rframe paint factor and isolated scope; no public
    rframe, n0, or cascade matcher surface grows.

Measured boundary

Four scratch matrices exercised 282 candidates through Chromium
149.0.7827.55 and both actual CLI admissions. Strict and best effort were
pixel-identical for every candidate. A separate 96-pair line search found 69
cases that were both Chromium-exact through n0 and still distinguished element
opacity from stroke opacity; the committed line cells use that exact class, so
no tolerance was added.

The four committed cells are independently discriminating:

  • svg-opacity-line-layer-attr: direct attribute, inherited container, <a>,
    <use>, and explicit-none control. Its stroke-opacity mutation moves 386
    pixels at maximum channel delta 2.
  • svg-opacity-line-layer-css: inline style, stylesheet percentage, cascade
    precedence, and explicit-none control. Its mutation moves 290 pixels at
    maximum delta 130.
  • svg-opacity-selected-empty-paints: eight selected transparent routes
    against four absent-paint routes. Erasing the selected passes moves 1,120
    pixels at maximum delta 1.
  • svg-opacity-paintless-stages: live partial/zero paintless effects against
    four pruned controls. Erasing the five live stages moves 980 pixels at
    maximum delta 1.

Fresh post-commit reproduction rendered those four committed sources through
strict and best-effort n0 and compared decoded pixels independently: every
strict/oracle, best/oracle, and strict/best pair was 0 pixels at delta 0.

Gate sensitivity

I deliberately collapsed structural passes back to the old visible-draw proxy.
just gate then failed loudly:

  • attribute line cell: 392 pixels at maximum delta 60;
  • CSS line cell: 294 pixels at maximum delta 60;
  • selected-empty-paint cell: 840 pixels at maximum delta 1.

Restoring the separate structural fact returned the complete 1,051-cell gate
to green. Exact-byte controls remain exact.

Checklist and counts

  • CSS opacity: [ ][x].
  • SVG presentation attribute opacity: [ ][x].
  • Chromium-baked primitive cells: 1,047 → 1,051.
  • Sampled frames: unchanged at 16.
  • Named refusal rows: 198 → 197.
  • Filter estate: unchanged at 453 cells.
  • No conformance score was produced or inspected. FLIP's record, rule, and
    baseline are untouched.

Independent rung review

No Workflow runner is exposed in this environment, so
.agents/workflows/verify-rung.js could not be invoked through its
scriptPath. I reproduced its two independent roles by hand from the ignored
svg-opacity-recovery.plan.md brief:

  • TICK/LAW: re-read the checklist tick rules and both opacity sections;
    audited the full existing grammar/applicability evidence, all four new exact
    cells, both status changes, the 1,051/197 ledgers, the graduated refusal,
    strict/best invariance, the unchanged contract seam, and the no-score/FLIP
    laws.
  • REPRO: rebuilt the actual CLI, rerendered the four committed sources in
    both admissions, decoded and compared them to the committed Chromium
    oracles, verified source/oracle hashes and capture provenance, rebaked all
    1,051 oracles, reran gate/status, and independently checked the sensitivity
    failures.

The skeptical/full-suite pass caught two initial regressions before commit:
paintless geometry nodes must remain for context-paint ownership, and
zero-extent ellipse nodes must retain the established empty-frame contract.
Separating node retention from has_geometry fixed both. The final docs audit
also corrected one stale sentence that still called 198 the current refusal
count.

  • just gate
  • just status
  • fresh strict/best committed-source reproduction (all 12 comparisons 0/0)

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

The SVG compiler replaces visible-draw opacity checks with structural opacity-pass tracking. It admits partially opaque lines, preserves transparent selected paints as passes, prunes empty geometry, and adds four Chromium-backed fixtures with updated corpus records and contract tests.

Changes

SVG opacity folding

Layer / File(s) Summary
Opacity facts and paint resolution
crates/websem/src/svg.rs
SpanFacts and ShapeOutcome now track opacity passes, opacity stages, and geometry. Fill and stroke resolution report whether a structural opacity pass exists.
Container and span opacity orchestration
crates/websem/src/svg.rs
Opacity wrappers prune zero-opacity subjects, replay eligible one-pass content, and create scopes when multiple structural passes remain.
Shape compilation and opacity admission
crates/websem/src/svg.rs, crates/websem/src/svg_paint_server.rs
Shape compilers defer zero-opacity handling to shape_node. Partially opaque <line> elements no longer use the former stroke refusal.
Opacity contract validation and corpus updates
crates/websem/tests/opacity_contract.rs, crates/n0_cli/README.md, docs/wg/consolidation/*, fixtures/web-first/*
Tests cover line ingress, transparent and absent paints, paintless stages, and pruned geometry. Four Chromium cells are added, and the refusal register changes from 198 to 197 rows.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3367b

The SVG opacity behavior is otherwise merge-ready, but the closure documentation is dated August 31, 2026 even though the current date is August 30, 2026; update the date or land the documentation after the stated closure date.
