WIP — red commit only. Reproduces #1412.
## TDD red phase
`test-issue-1412-customizer-no-override.js` asserts that after
`MeshCorePresets.applyPreset('deut')` and a server-config push of legacy
`nodeColors`, `window.ROLE_COLORS.repeater === '#FE6100'`. On master
this
fails because `customize-v2.js:553` pushes server-config into the
`_roleOverrides` map, which the live getter prefers over CSS vars.
Green commit (customize-v2.js + customize.js fix) follows.

## What
Fix the horizontal overlap between `.nav-more-btn` (in `.nav-left`) and
`.nav-stats` (in `.nav-right`) at viewport widths roughly 1101..1599px.
At vw=1200 the count number in the stats badge rendered on top of the
"More ▾" text.
## Root cause
`.top-nav` uses `display: flex; justify-content: space-between;` but had
**no column gap** between its children, and `.nav-links` had **no
flex-grow**. So `.nav-left` only consumed its content's intrinsic width
and `.nav-right` (with `flex-shrink: 0`) was free to abut it. Worse, the
Priority+ measurement loop in `app.js` (`applyNavPriority` → `fits()`)
compared intrinsic widths against `window.innerWidth` while `.top-nav {
overflow: hidden }` masked the actual collision — so the loop happily
declared "fits" while pixels overlapped.
CDP measurement on master at vw=1200 (`/#/packets`):
- `.nav-more-btn` rect: x=499..557 (w=58)
- `.nav-stats` rect: x=496..962 (w=466)
- Gap: **−60.7px** (overlapping)
Fix candidates tested via Chrome DevTools Protocol (`Runtime.evaluate` +
`Emulation.setDeviceMetricsOverride`) across vw=1101, 1200, 1366, 1440,
1600, 1920 (plus 768, 900, 1024, 1080, 1100, 1300, 1500, 1700, 1800 as a
sanity sweep). Winner:
```css
.top-nav { column-gap: 16px; }
.nav-links { flex: 1 1 auto; min-width: 0; }
```
Per-viewport gap (`stats.left - more.right`) baseline → fix:
| vw | baseline | fix |
|------|----------|----------|
| 1101 | −144.0 | **16.0** |
| 1200 | −60.7 | **16.0** |
| 1300 | 8.4 | **16.0** |
| 1366 | 64.2 | 64.2 |
| 1440 | 0.0 | **44.5** |
| 1600 | 24.2 | 24.2 |
| 1920 | more hidden (no overflow) — n/a | n/a |
Single-candidate variants (`.nav-left { flex: 1 1 auto }` alone,
`.top-nav { justify-content: space-between }` alone — already on, no
effect, `.nav-links { flex: 1 1 auto }` alone, margin/padding hacks on
`.nav-right`/`.nav-stats`) all still produced ≤8px gap at vw=1200. Only
the combo (column-gap on parent + flex-grow on `.nav-links`) cleanly
resolves all six required widths.
## TDD
Red commit: `3d374b4c93319805e89e46d8fdc8a8ea8c6c1479` (CI:
https://github.com/Kpa-clawbot/CoreScope/actions/runs/26482870401)
- `test-issue-1413-nav-overlap-e2e.js` — Playwright at vw 1101, 1200,
1366, 1440, 1600, 1920 on `/#/packets`. Asserts `.nav-more-btn.right + 8
<= .nav-stats.left` (when both visible) and that `.top-nav` does not
horizontally scroll. Wired into `.github/workflows/deploy.yml` alongside
the other `test-nav-*-e2e.js` entries.
- Red commit ships ONLY the test (+workflow line); CI fails on the
assertion at vw=1101..1300 and vw=1440 (gap below 8px threshold).
- Green commit applies the two CSS rules above and turns CI green.
## Manual verification
1. Open `http://analyzer-stg.00id.net/#/packets` in a desktop browser.
2. Resize the viewport to ~1200px wide.
3. Confirm the "More ▾" button and the stats badge are visibly separated
(≥16px gap) and the badge count is not stacked on the button text.
4. Repeat at 1101, 1300, 1440, 1600, 1920px — gap ≥16px at all widths
where stats is visible.
5. At ≤1100px confirm `.nav-stats` is still hidden (display:none,
unchanged).
## Scope guards
- No changes to the Priority+ algorithm (`applyNavPriority` / `fits()`
in `app.js`). #1391, #1311, #1139, #1148, #1102, #1055 logic untouched.
- No changes to the More dropdown (`position: fixed`, #1406).
- No changes to `.nav-left { overflow }` (#1405 stayed dropped).
- Mobile (<768px) hamburger layout unchanged.

## What
Delete the unconditional
`localStorage.setItem('channels-show-encrypted', 'true')` call (+
misleading "#1034 PR1: sectioned sidebar" comment) at
`public/channels.js:783-786`. The sectioned-sidebar grouping the comment
referenced was never implemented; in practice the call was
force-flipping the encrypted-visibility gate on every init so an
operator could never turn it off.
## Root cause
`channels.js` init ran:
```js
var showEncrypted = true;
try { localStorage.setItem('channels-show-encrypted', 'true'); } catch (e) {}
```
unconditionally on every load. The `loadChannels()` reader at line ~1563
(`localStorage.getItem('channels-show-encrypted') === 'true'`) then sent
`includeEncrypted=true` on the `/api/channels` call, so the server
returned all 246 encrypted placeholder channels alongside the 19 real
ones — 265 rows flooding the sidebar with no UI control to suppress.
Verified via CDP on staging:
- `localStorage['channels-show-encrypted']` was always `"true"` after
page load.
- `GET /api/channels` → **19** entries (default — encrypted excluded).
- `GET /api/channels?includeEncrypted=true` → **265** entries (246
encrypted).
- Manually `removeItem('channels-show-encrypted')` + reload → list
dropped to 19.
Confirmed the force-set was the only gate driving the flood.
## TDD
- RED commit `a71cecbc` — `test-issue-1409-no-encrypted-flood.js`
source-greps `public/channels.js` for the forbidden literal
`setItem('channels-show-encrypted', 'true')`. Asserts no match. Fails on
master.
- GREEN commit `14281b63` — delete the 2 lines + rewrite comment. Test
passes.
Tests:
```
$ node test-issue-1409-no-encrypted-flood.js
Issue #1409 — no force-enable of channels-show-encrypted
✅ channels.js does NOT unconditionally setItem(channels-show-encrypted, true)
✅ channels.js still reads channels-show-encrypted (toggle gate preserved)
2 passed, 0 failed
```
## Manual verification
- After fix, default `localStorage.getItem('channels-show-encrypted')`
is `null` on first load.
- `loadChannels()` reader returns `false`, so `includeEncrypted` is
omitted from the API call → server returns the 19 real channels only.
- Existing reader is preserved, so a future user-facing toggle that
writes the flag will continue to work.
## Out of scope (follow-ups)
- "Show encrypted" header toggle UI — issue acceptance criteria mentions
it as optional; not added here.
- Sectioned-sidebar grouping of encrypted channels (#1034 PR1 design) —
separate issue.
- Cap/collapse behavior when toggle is ON — separate issue.

WIP — RED commit only. Tests demonstrate two bugs from #1407:
1. `window.ROLE_COLORS` is a static literal (legacy April palette), not
synced to `--mc-role-*` CSS vars.
2. Achromat preset pairs `#1a1a1a` text with 3 dark grays → WCAG 1.4.3
fails (1.27 / 2.55 / 4.43).
Expect CI red on `test-issue-1407-cb-preset-propagation.js` assertion
failures (not compile errors). GREEN follows.

ACTUAL root cause of the recurring nav-vanishing bug, validated live via
Chrome CDP probe on staging at vw=1030.
## What happens
When the More dropdown opens:
- BEFORE: nav_links.y = 2.67, nav_left.scrollHeight = 47, nav visible ✅
- OPEN: nav_links.y = -46.67, nav_left.scrollHeight = 279, nav clipped
offscreen ❌
The .nav-more-menu is position:absolute but its content extents inflate
.nav-more-wrap.scrollHeight. .nav-left { display:flex;
align-items:center } then centers a 279px content line in a 52px
container, putting everything above the visible band.
## Fix
Add contain:layout to .nav-more-wrap — isolates its layout box from the
parent flex calculation. No more bubble-up.
CDP verification with the fix applied: dropdown opens, all 6 items
render at proper y (56, 93, 130, 166, 203, 240), nav_links_y stays at
2.67, nav_left.scrollHeight stays at 47.
## Why prior 22 fixes didn't catch it
Every prior fix treated symptoms — Priority+ algorithm tweaks, overflow
flag toggles, min-height drops, etc. None instrumented the CLOSED→OPEN
state transition that reveals the flex-line bug. Required Chrome
DevTools Protocol on a real broken viewport to see the inflate happen
live.
Fixes#1406 and likely supersedes #1391, #1396, #1400, #1404.

Root cause of the recurring nav-vanishing family of bugs — confirmed
live via operator console probe at vw=1030 on /#/channels (also
reproduces on /#/home, /#/packets, all routes).
## Symptoms
1. All `.nav-links` (Home, Packets, Map, Live, Channels, Nodes) and
brand + More button render OFFSCREEN above the visible top-nav band.
`.nav-left` reports y=0..52 but every child reports y=-47.5.
2. More dropdown when opened shows only ONE item ("Tools") instead of
the 6 expected (Channels, Tools, Observers, Analytics, Perf, Audio Lab).
## Root cause
`.nav-left { overflow: hidden }` at `public/style.css:509`. With flex
children whose effective layout exceeds the container box, Firefox clips
children to negative y. The same `overflow: hidden` ALSO clips the
descendant `.nav-more-menu` dropdown contents.
## Fix
Drop `overflow: hidden` from `.nav-left`. The original
horizontal-overflow guard from #1066 is preserved at the `.top-nav`
level (which still has `overflow: hidden`).
## Verification
Operator console probe after applying the same `overflow: visible`
in-page:
- All 6 visible nav links render at y >= 0 inside the top-nav.
- More dropdown contains all 6 expected items (Channels, Tools,
Observers, Analytics, Perf, Lab).
- Both bugs collapse into ONE root cause.
## Why prior fixes didn't catch this
- #1400 fixed `.nav-link { min-height: 48px }` overflow — reduced
children from 56px to 47px tall. Helped slightly but didn't address the
`.nav-left { overflow: hidden }` interaction.
- #1391, #1394 fixed the active-pill-in-overflow algorithm. Different
layer.
- #1311, #1148, #1106, #1102, #1097, #1067, #1055 — every prior
Priority+ fix treated overflow as an algorithmic question, never as a
CSS clipping bug at the container level.
22nd nav fix in this saga. This one targets the actual cause.

Reverting PR #1398 — the navdebug banner instrumentation caused pages to
hang on load on operator's device. Will respawn safer diagnostic. Refs
#1396.
Co-authored-by: openclaw-bot <bot@openclaw.local>
## Summary
Temporary diagnostic patch for #1396 (mobile / narrow-desktop nav
priority reports). Adds a single instrumentation block at the END of
`applyNavPriority()` in `public/app.js`, gated on `navdebug=1` appearing
in the URL hash. No nav behavior change; reverted once root cause is
known.
## What it does
When the URL hash contains `navdebug=1` (e.g. `/#/channels?navdebug=1`),
the function:
1. Paints a fixed-position green-on-black banner pinned to the bottom of
the viewport (`z-index:99999`, `pointer-events:none` so it never blocks
interaction) showing:
```
[NAV-DEBUG-1396] vw=<innerWidth> total=N visible=N overflow=N
hidden-by-css=N active=<label>
visible: [Home,Packets,...]
overflow: [Tools,...]
ua: <first 80 chars of UA>
```
2. Emits the same payload via `console.warn('[NAV-DEBUG-1396]', ...)`
for anyone who can pop devtools.
The whole block is wrapped in `try/catch` — diagnostic code never breaks
nav.
## Why a banner (not just console)
Affected reporters are on mobile devices where popping devtools is
annoying or impossible. A screenshot of the banner gives us:
- Viewport width (vs the 768 / 1100 / 1101 breakpoints)
- Device UA (Safari iOS quirks, narrow Android, etc.)
- Actual link counts after `applyNavPriority` ran
- Whether anything is hidden by CSS (`display:none`) despite not being
in the overflow set
- Which labels are inline vs in the More menu
- Active route at time of measurement
## Operator usage
On the affected device, open:
```
https://<staging-host>/#/channels?navdebug=1
```
(or any other route; the gate is hash-wide). Screenshot the
green-on-black banner at the bottom of the page and attach to #1396.
## Hard rules respected
- Banner is gated — never visible without `navdebug=1` in the hash.
- No new dependency.
- No change to nav behavior.
- Diagnostic-only; revert PR will follow once root cause is identified.
## Out of scope
- Root-cause fix for #1396 (this is purely instrumentation).
- E2E test for the banner — code is temporary and scheduled for revert.

## What
Pins the active-route `.nav-link` inline at any viewport ≥768px so
Priority+ never shoves it into the More dropdown. Fixes the operator's
screenshot of `/#/perf` at ~1080px where the navbar showed only the
active "Perf" pill missing — and an inverse failure where the active
pill was the only thing **in** the dropdown.
This is the 20th regression of nav Priority+. Single-loop fix only; no
algorithm redesign (per issue out-of-scope).
## Root cause
`public/app.js` `applyNavPriority()` had two places that ignored the
active state:
1. **≤1100 narrow-desktop CSS branch (line ~1197):** `if
(a.dataset.priority !== 'high') a.classList.add('is-overflow')` blindly
overflowed every non-high link — including the active pill.
2. **>1100 measurement loop (line ~1267):** `overflowQueue` is `non-high
reversed + high reversed`. The active non-high link enters the queue and
the loop's only break condition is `priority === 'high'`. fits() keeps
returning false (active pill is wider — has the `.active`
background/padding), so the loop walks the entire non-high tail and
orphans the active route in More.
The acceptance criterion "Active-route pill MUST always be visible
inline" was never encoded — #1311's floor only protected
`data-priority="high"`.
## Why prior #1311 / #1148 / #1139 floors didn't catch this
- **#1311** floored at `data-priority="high"` only. `/#/perf` is
`data-priority=""` so it had no protection.
- **#1148 / #1139** floored the *More menu* at ≥2 items but didn't
constrain *which* links could be promoted/dropped.
- **#1106** narrow-desktop CSS branch (≤1100) was written before
active-pill width drift was a known issue.
## Fix
One conceptual rule applied at three points:
1. In `overflowQueue` construction, skip any link with `.active` (treat
active like high-priority — never enqueue).
2. In the ≤1100 CSS branch, skip the active link when assigning
`.is-overflow`.
3. In the >1100 loop, also break on `.active` (defensive — queue already
excludes it).
Approach chosen over "pin active-pill max-width during measurement":
measurement-pinning would silently shrink the pill visually mid-resize,
and width drift from #1378's new `--mc-*` vars made that fragile.
Treating active as a hard inline pin matches the documented contract and
is one greppable invariant.
## TDD red → green
- **Red commit `34d69012`:** added `test-nav-priority-1391-e2e.js`
covering `/#/perf, /#/audio-lab, /#/analytics, /#/observers` at `1024,
1080, 1100, 1101, 1200, 1300px`. Asserts (1) active pill not in
overflow, (2) all 5 high-pri still inline (#1311 guard), (3) every
overflowed link mirrored in More dropdown (no orphans). 0/24 passed
locally on red.
- **Green commit:** same test 24/24 pass. Existing #1311 (20/20), #1139
floor, #1102 contract still green.
## Manual verification
Local fixture server (`./corescope-server -port 13581 -db
test-fixtures/e2e-fixture.db -public public`):
- `/#/perf` @ 1080×800: brand + 5 high-pri inline + "Perf" pill inline +
"More ▾" containing the 5 low-pri links (Channels, Tools, Observers,
Analytics, Audio Lab). ✅
- `/#/perf` @ 1300×800: brand + 5 high-pri + "Perf" inline; More hidden
(only 4 low-pri items overflow). ✅
- `/#/perf` @ 800×800 (narrow): hamburger code path untouched. ✅
- Inverse `/#/home` @ 1080×800 (active IS high-pri): no behaviour
change. ✅
## Preflight
`bash ~/.openclaw/skills/pr-preflight/scripts/run-all.sh origin/master`
— exit 0.
Browser verified: local fixture server + Playwright on Chromium
(`/usr/bin/chromium`).
E2E assertion added: `test-nav-priority-1391-e2e.js:138-148`
(`activeOverflowed === false`).
