Operator hands-on report: gestures on installed build

Evidence class: real-glass interaction, operator verbal report only. No camera recording, touch trace or timing measurement accompanies it.

• When: 2026-09-24, shortly after about 22:00 UTC.
• Installed system: /nix/store/agcr8mk73qpqmzrl7vq6k0j7qj233225-nixos-system-nixos-26.11.20260919.20b1ddd, built from master 89b80506. It includes the app-switch swipe fix 00aa9025, the keyboard-drag backdrop fix and the notification motion work. The running sway and k230-shell-rust executables were confirmed to come from this closure. The test activation’s rollback timer was disarmed after a native capture matched the prior healthy frame.
• Report: after trying the bottom-edge left/right app switch on the panel with a finger, the operator said: “ok gestures feel perfect”. This followed the earlier complaint that 80% swipes snapped back and momentum was ignored (see the README next to this file).

Limits. This report does not satisfy task 5.7 of the-handheld-presents-a-coherent-shell, or keyboard task 3.2. Both name a tools/capture-feature.py … --provenance real-touch recording, and those tasks stay open. It gives no latency, frame-rate or per-gesture coverage. It isn’t known which of the listed sub-gestures (up-then-sideways, both directions, hold, diagonal reversal, end of deck) were exercised.
