The 2026-09-04 health pass of the frac simulation path, kept live. Move a finding as its fix lands and the report updates here; the recorded baseline stays visible underneath so you can always see what the pass originally found.

Health pass driven through a real browser, signed in and signed out, across the six routes that make up the core simulation path. All six load, every runnable page runs a case, and no NaN leaked into a results panel.

Route health

Core simulation routes checked in a real browser
Route	HTTP	Runs a case	Console errors	Notes
/pad-parallel	200	yes	none	Instant preview 0.8 ms across 20 stages; verified solve matched the committed settings. CPU kernel used — no WebGPU adapter in headless.
/pad-orchestrator	200	yes	none	Run strip present once a case is selected.
/field-pace	200	yes	none	Guided step lane intact end to end.
/job-simulation	200	yes	none	—
/physics-verify	200	n/a	none	Pass/fail range table rather than a solve.
/dashboard	200	n/a	none	—

First cold navigation to /pad-parallel and /field-pace exceeded 45 s in dev because Vite compiles the route on first visit; both were instant on the second load. That is a dev-server artifact, not a production path.
The WebGPU compute path was exercised as CPU fallback only — headless Chromium exposes no adapter.

What the simulator does well today

Explicit fidelity contract

Verified physics tiers (depletion field, stage-to-stress coupling, fibre forward model) are named on screen and stamped into exports, so a fast preview can never be mistaken for a signed-off result.

Instant and verified are separated

The approximate preview is labelled as approximate and has its own compute selector (CPU / Mixed / WebGPU) with graceful CPU fallback when no adapter exists.

Whole-pad parallel solve

The pad converges in waves rather than serially per stage, and the compare view diffs Instant against Verified on identical inputs.

Drift-guarded physics

Physics libraries are covered by unit tests and snapshot drift-guards, with /physics-verify surfacing pass/fail ranges in the app.

Verification breadth beyond single-fracture cases

In progress

leverage #1

/physics-verify covers bedding-plane (He-Hutchinson) and TIV (Thomsen) cases only. Extending verification to the pad-scale path — stress-shadow superposition, proppant transport, and the Instant vs Verified delta — turns it into a single credibility page.

No published benchmark case

Landed

leverage #2

A skeptical engineer had no one-click, reproducible public dataset run to compare against the literature. This was the strongest missing trust asset.

WebGPU path unverified in CI

Open

leverage #3

Render and compute quality tiers are pinned to balanced for CI, so the cinematic/WebGPU path has no automated coverage; a regression there is only visible by hand.

Guest banner promised access the gate refuses

Landed

The banner claimed "full features, works without an account" while AccessGate blocks simulation, results, 3D and fleet routes for anonymous visitors.
