# H02: Harness: custom inspector bypass and errors

Before [e9236274a3](https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/e9236274a3a6e0c731a7df4092db1e686f039068); after [63e44670dd](https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/commit/63e44670dd1d222cf63619d5e02415f2a9fd3bc2).

Before run: `/tmp/lead-24640-r1/capture/2026-10-27T14-33-15.706Z-before-H02`. After run: `/tmp/lead-24640-r1/capture/2026-10-27T14-33-18.773Z-after-H02`.

Environment: fs-31 Linux x86_64, Node v26.12.1; real TerminalManager harness, controlled runner/fake PTY/TestClock; no server, RPC, or database. Viewport/theme/DPR/font scaling=N/A.

Labelled harness. Custom inspector takes precedence over the supplied processTable spy. Delayed success and typed per-terminal error are logged, including closeIdle caught error. Native/fallback counts stay zero; the next poll starts 1s after inspector completion.

Wrapper timings exclude Python startup and stream drain. Acquisition timings use the real terminal.posixProcessTableSnapshot trace span. An idle gap is END→next START, never start-to-start. Before delay=min(1000×2^failureCount,60000)ms; after delay=min(max(1000×2^failureCount,4×measured fallback acquisition),60000)ms. Native-failed production ticks increment failureCount even when fallback succeeds; successful absent-supplier harness ticks reset it. Native requests and terminal processing can add overhead.

## Behaviour difference
Same bypass/error/1s gap
Raw UTC/monotonic RPC, query, signal, metadata, warnings, and cleanup records are in the paired transcripts. PID, randomly generated script terminal suffix, database path, UTC, sequence batching, and scheduler jitter naturally vary between fresh runs. No visual comparison is applicable.
