Failed emulator -list-avds currently discards devices already returned by the hub. Keep those devices usable, show a bounded host warning, and clear incomplete-discovery guidance after a successful refresh. Timeout and signal exits count as failures. Successful enumeration still deduplicates AVDs.

Rebuilt from @Quicksaver's #19974, retaining the contributor commits. Removed refresh counters, WeakMap state and readiness/lifecycle rewiring; refresh ordering follows main.

Verification: 27 added tests reduced to 5 behavior regressions in existing suites. All five fail against main; 61 tests pass across DeviceService, LocalDeviceHost, DeviceSetup and DeviceMultiHost. Scoped lint, formatting and server/web/contracts typechecks pass. Three independent review rounds (Claude Opus 5.5 and Codex GPT-6-Sol); the reviews found hidden remote-host warnings and a misleading readiness fallback, now corrected in the Device panel and host settings.

Live Linux web proof uses an isolated server and synthetic host/hub responses, with the real device service, WebSocket subscription and Device panel. Failed AVD enumeration retains a physical device and running emulator without exposing command output; recovery clears the warning and adds each stopped AVD once. Empty failed discovery suppresses misleading AVD creation guidance.

Before: current main with the same failing host and hub inventory.

After: rebuilt head retains both devices and shows the bounded host warning.

Recovery clears the warning and deduplicates AVDs.

Remote-host warning in Integrations Settings (synthetic SSH host boundary); a subsequent successful refresh cleared it.

Not verified: real Android SDK/emulator, real SSH device host, macOS, Windows, iOS, Android client or Electron desktop. The live proof is a host-boundary fixture, not native-device verification. No refresh-ordering guarantees are added.

Implemented with Codex GPT-6.1-Sol in T3 Code; tests by Codex GPT-6-Astra.

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This targeted device-discovery fix changes the existing refresh behavior and adds substantial sequencing guards across readiness, refresh, and host lifecycle operations. The additive contract/UI updates and comprehensive tests reduce risk, but the concurrency and state-publication changes warrant human review.

📝 Walkthrough

Device refreshes guard readiness and inventory updates against stale attempts. Failed Android AVD enumeration retains discovered devices and records incomplete discovery. Local command results distinguish timeouts and missing exit codes. Setup guidance reflects uncertain Android discovery.

Changes: Device discovery and refresh

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Normalize local command results apps/server/src/device/LocalDeviceHost.ts, apps/server/src/device/LocalDeviceHost.test.ts	Timed-out commands return code 124 with a timeout message. Commands without an exit code return code 1. Tests cover both cases.
Guard refreshes and report incomplete discovery packages/contracts/src/device.ts, apps/server/src/device/DeviceService.ts, apps/server/src/device/DeviceInventory.test.ts	Refresh attempts guard readiness, status, and inventory publication. Failed AVD enumeration retains discovered devices and records incomplete Android discovery. Tests cover retries, overlapping operations, and host changes.
Surface incomplete discovery in setup guidance apps/web/src/components/device/DeviceSetup.tsx, apps/web/src/components/device/DevicePanel.tsx, apps/web/src/components/device/DeviceSetup.test.ts	Setup guidance reports when Android discovery may be incomplete. The panel suppresses the no-virtual-devices notice when discovery is uncertain. Tests cover local and remote hosts and preserve iOS guidance.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 40fd8

Device discovery retains available devices when AVD enumeration fails. No merge-blocking issue remains identified, subject to normal checks.

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 40fd8

The change preserves independently discovered devices without removing existing permission or agent-access checks. Refresh ordering and host-identity guards improve failure containment. Remaining uncertainty concerns interruption behavior and mixed-version consumption of the new status field, rather than an observed security regression.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The affected authority remains device discovery and existing boot, session, and control operations on the environment's local and configured SSH hosts. Partial discovery restores availability of hub-discovered devices during AVD failure; it does not itself grant a new principal, host credential, or authorization scope.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

• inferred — The examined path from partial inventory through MCP device selection to privileged open or boot operations remains gated by thread device capability, enabled agent access, and current host readiness. Enumeration failure is not an authorization boundary in the inspected design, so making that path usable does not establish an authorization bypass.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Existing RPC policy distinguishes readable listing from operation-scoped retry, update, open, and control. The hub proxy separately authenticates read versus control traffic, resolves a current host endpoint, and removes the authentication ticket before forwarding. These inspected controls are unchanged in the full PR comparison.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• inferred — The new failure handling separates optional AVD enumeration from independently successful hub discovery. Host-scoped inventory replacement and attempt-aware publication reduce the chance that an older failure or recovery result overrides newer state, without treating incomplete discovery as proof that devices are absent.

[Quicksaver]

Added the Scope and approval section in response to the description warning. It explains the focused obvious-bug rationale: failed optional AVD enumeration discards successful hub discovery, and the fix preserves those devices while reporting incomplete discovery until recovery. The existing focused tests and paired web/Android evidence remain linked in the description.

No triaged issue or prior maintainer approval is linked. Eligibility under the focused-fix exception remains a maintainer decision, and Macroscope's requested human approval remains outstanding.

Taking over this one. I'll trim the tests and the refresh-sequencing machinery down to the retention fix itself and push to this branch.
