Debug session 01-09-save-stops-recording — SAVE_ARCHIVE must auto-stop recording (SPEC one-shot intent)

Problem statement

During the Plan 01-13 Task 9 operator empirical UAT 2026-05-19, after the operator clicked SAVE in the popup during an active recording session, the extension produced the requested archive zip (downloaded to ~/Downloads) but the recording did not stop: the toolbar badge stayed REC, Chrome's "Sharing your screen" banner remained visible, and subsequent toolbar presses re-opened the SAVE-only popup with no feedback indicating the prior SAVE had succeeded. The operator performed 4 toolbar presses across ~94 seconds; 2 zips downloaded (session_report_2026-05-19_10-59-44.zip + session_report_2026-05-19_11-01-18.zip); the SW console captured 2 SAVE_ARCHIVE receives + 2 Archive download started events, with the recording stream alive throughout.

Root cause (orchestrator-diagnosed)

src/background/index.ts:744-748 SAVE_ARCHIVE handler invokes saveArchive(), which produces the zip + calls chrome.downloads.download, then returns {success: true} — but the handler never signals offscreen to stop the recording. The recorder's mediaStream + MediaRecorder + rotation timer all stay live. The operator's perception ("nothing happened") was correct: the popup did not transition state after SAVE; the badge did not transition; no notification fired. This violates the SPEC Тз расширение фаза1.md "one click MUST produce a self-contained archive" — which implies one-shot save-and-done semantics. The original design's "always-on" framing was over-extended by engineering interpretation; the SPEC actually calls for a deliberate stop after each save.

Fix design

Two-file patch matched to the existing parallel Bug B (user-stopped-sharing) pattern in .planning/debug/resolved/01-09-recovery-flow.md:

src/background/index.ts SAVE_ARCHIVE handler

After downloadArchive returns (i.e. inside saveArchive() after the download dispatch succeeds, before the function returns {success: true}):

// Plan 01-13 Task 9 operator UAT closure: SAVE = one-shot per SPEC intent.
// Send STOP_RECORDING to offscreen + transition state to IDLE so the
// operator sees a clean reset (badge clears, popup empties, sharing
// banner closes via track.stop()). Mirrors the Bug B user-stopped-sharing
// path: deliberate stop ≠ error; no recovery notification.
try {
  await chrome.runtime.sendMessage({ type: 'STOP_RECORDING' });
} catch (sendErr) {
  // Offscreen may be unreachable mid-teardown; non-fatal — SW-side
  // state still transitions to IDLE so the operator regains the
  // restart path.
  logger.warn('STOP_RECORDING dispatch after save failed:', sendErr);
}
isRecording = false;
setIdleMode();

src/offscreen/recorder.ts STOP_RECORDING handler

ALREADY EXISTS at recorder.ts:848 — invokes stopRecording() which correctly nulls mediaStream + stops the MediaRecorder + stops all tracks

• clears the rotation timer. No edit needed on the offscreen side.

Edge case decided: resetBuffer is intentionally NOT called by the SW post-save because:

1. stopRecording() in recorder.ts does NOT call resetBuffer (line 559 comment: "we do NOT call resetBuffer() here — the operator may want to STOP and then SAVE the buffered footage").
2. After SAVE_ARCHIVE the buffer's contents have already been consumed into the zip; the operator's next session will start fresh because startRecording() calls resetBuffer at line 318.
3. Calling resetBuffer here would be defensive overkill — the segments are about to be overwritten on the next START anyway, and a no-op resetBuffer on an already-cleared-at-next-start buffer wastes nothing.

TDD plan

RED unit tests (NEW file: tests/background/save-archive-stops-recording.test.ts)

1. After SAVE_ARCHIVE receive completes → chrome.action.setBadgeText called with text='' (setIdleMode side effect)
2. After SAVE_ARCHIVE receive → chrome.action.setPopup called with popup='' (setIdleMode side effect — the popup-empties signal that re-enables onClicked restart path)
3. After SAVE_ARCHIVE receive → chrome.runtime.sendMessage called with {type:'STOP_RECORDING'} (the SW → offscreen STOP signal)
4. After SAVE_ARCHIVE receive → NO recovery notification fired (chrome.notifications.create not called with mokosh-recovery-* id)

A14 harness extension

tests/uat/extension-page-harness.ts — add assertA14 after assertA13:

• Pre-condition: A13 just dispatched a SAVE_ARCHIVE; recording state after that save should now be IDLE (badge='', popup='').
• Reads chrome.action.getBadgeText({}) → expects ''
• Reads chrome.action.getPopup({}) → expects '' (relative path empty; Chrome returns empty string when setPopup was called with '')
• Snapshots chrome.notifications.getAll() keys → expects NO id with mokosh-recovery- prefix added since A13 (verifies no recovery notif fired on the SAVE auto-stop)

Recommended simplification per spec: skip direct isRecording query (no bridge op exposes it). The badge proxy is sufficient — production state machine pairs isRecording updates with badge transitions atomically (no state-machine path desyncs them).

Files touched

• tests/background/save-archive-stops-recording.test.ts (NEW)
• src/background/index.ts (saveArchive() function — append STOP signal
  • setIdleMode + isRecording=false)
• tests/uat/extension-page-harness.ts (assertA14 + global surface)
• tests/uat/lib/harness-page-driver.ts (driveA14)
• tests/uat/harness.test.ts (orchestrator — add A14 in sequence)

Note: STOP_RECORDING is already in MessageType (src/shared/types.ts:14) — no type-system surface change needed.

RED → GREEN evidence (to be filled in)

• RED commit SHA: TBD
• GREEN commit SHA: TBD
• A14 commit SHA: TBD
• vitest count (target): >= 94 + 4 (new tests) = >= 98 GREEN
• npm run test:uat (target): 15/15 GREEN (was 14/14)

Follow-ups

• Orchestrator runs pre-checkpoint bundle gates (SW CSP-safety, Node-globals in SW chunk, DOM-globals not in SW chunk, Tier-1 hook-string grep over dist/) BEFORE re-surfacing operator UAT. Per feedback-pre-checkpoint-bundle-gates.md operator time = automation cannot verify.
• Operator UAT after this lands should confirm: SAVE click → zip lands + badge clears + sharing banner closes + popup empties + subsequent toolbar click starts a NEW recording session (clean state machine).
