Red commit: `d8a6d42` ([CI
assertion](https://github.com/Kpa-clawbot/CoreScope/actions/runs/37695889461)).
Review-regression red: `f73643b` ([CI
assertion](https://github.com/Kpa-clawbot/CoreScope/actions/runs/37703995494)).
Fixes#2131. Partial fix for #1154: U2 only; other audit items remain
open.
Both node views explain distinct transmissions versus recorded
observations. The shared help is reachable by keyboard and touch, stays
readable at either scroll edge, and remains open when the pointer enters
its text. Escape dismisses help while preserving node context and focus;
a second Escape keeps the existing navigation behavior.
Count expressions and API requests are preserved. One controller per
nodes page handles one active help element and one queued animation
frame. Scroll/resize work is coalesced; listeners are removed on page
teardown. Work is constant relative to packet/node counts, with no
dataset scans or new settings/dependencies.
E2E assertion added: `tests/e2e/test-e2e-playwright.js:114`. Thirteen
cases cover exact counts, accessible description, keyboard/touch, hover
transfer, Escape, and viewport/scroll bounds. Existing metric assertions
are unchanged.
Browser verified: http://localhost:63508 using Chromium, controlled
fixtures and actual API data. Desktop/mobile screenshots retained
locally; additional checks exercised resizing and repeated page cleanup.
Local validation: 189 standalone suites; core browser 148 passed, 3
fixture-dependent skips (existing manual skips unchanged);
location/metric suite 6 passed; syntax, theme variables and lint passed
(0 errors, 92 existing warnings).
## Preflight overrides
- OpenClaw preflight/profile unavailable; repository checks and local
Chromium used.
- Windows ingestor symlink fixture lacks permission. Backend files are
unchanged; full Linux Go CI is required.
