# Implementation Summary

**Session ID**: `phase24-session03-browser-safe-evidence-assets-file-hardening` **Completed**: 2026-06-08 **Duration**: 2.1 hours

***

## Overview

Implemented browser-safe evidence asset support and hardened local file serving for Trend Finder. The session added private asset manifest helpers, loopback-only bridge handling, additive browser schema defaults, sanitized Engine Replay summaries, compact evidence preview affordances, and updated docs plus fixtures without exposing private paths or unapproved media.

## Technical Decisions

1. **Additive browser contracts**: Legacy Trend Finder payloads keep parsing while new asset fields default to empty or unavailable states.
2. **Fail-closed local serving**: The bridge only serves explicit generated roots over loopback with token, method, path, size, and content-type checks.

***

## Test Results

| Metric   | Value                                                                     |
| -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Tests    | 3023 total validation tests; 157 focused tests in the final session check |
| Passed   | 3023 total validation tests; 157 focused tests passed                     |
| Coverage | N/A                                                                       |

## Lessons Learned

1. Additive defaults and legacy-compatible fixtures prevented schema drift.
2. Keeping asset summaries to counts and labels avoided privacy regressions in browser-visible surfaces.

***

## Future Considerations

1. Session 04 can reuse the asset and bridge contracts when source setup and target configuration become UI-backed.
2. Session 07 can reuse the pruning and bridge hardening rules if static Brief export needs a browser-safe file-serving path.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-os-and-trend-finder.gitbook.io/ai-os-and-trend-finder-docs/.spec_system/archive/sessions/phase24-session03-browser-safe-evidence-assets-file-hardening/implementation_summary.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
