| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| PE-002-BASELINE | blocked | [browser artifacts](/home/habs/.codex/worktrees/8ba8/homarr/.screenshots/release-v2/performance-02) | The application entry repeated redirects until Chromium stopped navigation; the assigned flow was not reachable. | Capture repeatable cold and warm timing, request, render, memory, and console baselines with candidate metadata. |
| PE-002-THRESHOLD | blocked | [browser artifacts](/home/habs/.codex/worktrees/8ba8/homarr/.screenshots/release-v2/performance-02) | The application entry repeated redirects until Chromium stopped navigation; the assigned flow was not reachable. | Measure the packet at every assigned viewport, zoom, input, board, and profile against the documented threshold. |
| PE-002-STRESS | blocked | [browser artifacts](/home/habs/.codex/worktrees/8ba8/homarr/.screenshots/release-v2/performance-02) | The application entry repeated redirects until Chromium stopped navigation; the assigned flow was not reachable. | Exercise dense data, repeated interaction, long-session, latency, and failure stress that applies. |
| PE-002-RECOVERY-EVIDENCE | blocked | [browser artifacts](/home/habs/.codex/worktrees/8ba8/homarr/.screenshots/release-v2/performance-02) | The application entry repeated redirects until Chromium stopped navigation; the assigned flow was not reachable. | Verify recovery after stress and link trace, screenshot, network, memory, and cleanup artifacts. |

## Performance measurements and limitations

No valid feature timing could be recorded because no application document rendered. Cold/warm, polling, rendering, memory, and recovery measurements remain blocked.

## Independent reproductions

The common routing failure was independently reproduced by qa-v2-preflight-01; the corresponding tracked packet contains its own browser evidence.

## Findings

### RV2-P1-001 — P1: locale rewrite causes an infinite browser redirect

Preconditions: candidate f57a660088d6777c86aca22977354fa8b810e2be, main-writable, tablet-1024, 100% zoom, mouse, fresh named Chromium session qa-v2-performance-02.

1. Launch a fresh Chromium context with the Chromium argument --no-sandbox.
2. Set the assigned viewport and open http://127.0.0.1:37137 or its authentication entry.
3. Observe repeated document requests to the same route.
4. Wait until Chromium displays ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS or chrome-error://chromewebdata/.
5. Compare the result with the independently reproduced preflight evidence.

Expected: the application renders the assigned entry, permitting authentication and the packet flow. Actual: the redirect loop prevents the application from rendering. Reproducibility: reproduced independently by the preflight agents. Console output was empty; network and visual evidence are linked below.

## Mutations and persistence

No credentials were submitted and no product mutation occurred. Reload and fresh-session retries reproduced the routing failure, so application persistence was not reachable.

## Blockers and gaps

Every non-evidence case listed as blocked remains untested beyond the routing entry. No blocked cell is treated as passed.

## Cleanup

The named browser session was closed by the browser agent. Artifacts remain under the untracked packet directory; no secret values were captured.
