T16 closure-roadmap Priority 2 (`2026-05-07-tighten-cross-stack-assertions.md`). Replaces every `if (pcm.size <= warmupSamples) return@runBlocking` short-circuit in `BrowserInteropTest` with a sample-count `assertTrue` floor: - I2 late-join: `≥ 1.5 s after warmup` (was vacuous-pass on cold-launch flake) - I3 mute-window: `≥ 2.5 s` lower bound + tightened `< 5.0 s` upper (was `< 5.5 s`) - I4 stereo: `≥ 1 s × 2 channels` (= sample-rate × 2 floats) - I5 hot-swap: `≥ 0.5 s after warmup` - I9 packet-loss: `≥ 0.5 s after warmup` - I14 decoder-no-errors: `decoderOutputs ≥ 4` (3 warmup + ≥ 1 audio) - Browser-publish baseline + reconnect: `runBrowserPublishKotlinListen` helper hard-asserts on listener side instead of System.err-printing and returning early. These were soft-passes because the pre-merge `:quic` post-handshake bidi-drop bug produced 0-frame outcomes ~50 % of the time, and we didn't want to fail-flake the suite while the actor was still unidentified. Trace capture in commit `b2a42d9a` pinned that actor on `:quic`; merging `origin/main` (commit `8f8251a5`) closed it; commit `eea746a6` documented the closure. Sweep verification of the hardened assertions is pending — the hardening commit lands first so the verification sweep runs against committed state. Gap matrix updated to reflect the post-merge stability + hard floors landing.
