Both clients made the same mistake, in the same shape: the throttle that keeps
the daily report from filling with one row per poll was placed in front of the
enforcement call. So blocking worked exactly once per target, and the second
launch of a banned app — or the second visit to a banned site — simply went
through.
Android, `BlockerEngine`: `claim()` now gates only `report()`/`announce()`.
Enforcement runs on every decision behind a 1.2s debounce whose only job is to
stop the accessibility event and the usage-stats poll both pressing home for one
visit. An app still in front on the next pass is pressed again — one
GLOBAL_ACTION_HOME is a request, not a result — and a visit is no longer
consumed when no accessibility service is attached to consume it with, which
turned a missing grant into a silently unblocked app. `lastForeground` and
`lastBlockedApp` are @Volatile like every other field here; they are written
from the service's main thread and the poll coroutine both. The usage-stats
cadence now follows the server's `app_poll_seconds`, and the first look happens
at once rather than four seconds in.
Linux, `BlockerManager._enforce_apps`: the pid went into the dedupe set *before*
the kill was attempted, so a process whose signal was refused was exempt for the
rest of the interval, and a pid is reused — a relaunch landing on a recycled
number inherited the exemption. Processes are now identified by (pid, start
time) from /proc/<pid>/stat, the kill is attempted on every pass, and only the
report is throttled. The books are pruned of dead processes so an all-day
interval cannot leak.
`processes.terminate()` no longer busy-waits two seconds for the process to die
before escalating — on the desktop that wait ran on the thread drawing the
countdown. SIGTERM now, SIGKILL on a later pass once the grace has gone by,
which is also gentler than the old fixed two seconds. With nothing blocking,
the scan gets its own timer at the cadence the server asks for instead of
riding the five-second policy poll.
Neither enforcement path had any test: the desktop's blocker suite hardcoded an
empty app list and nothing anywhere touched BlockerEngine. 16 new tests, on
fakes and the committed fixtures.

A hosts file cannot express a wildcard, so '*.youtube.com' was only ever the
base domain plus the guessed labels. The patterns the server now hands over
as unexpandable are answered by a stub on 127.0.0.1, and the helper owns one
systemd-resolved drop-in that points just those zones at it:
* the stub is listening before the drop-in is written, and the drop-in is
removed before the stub stops, so a zone's queries never land on a dead
port;
* stub and route live as long as the app, not the interval: between
intervals they forward everything, instead of restarting resolved (and
dropping its cache) on every pomodoro;
* a crashed run leaves a world-readable drop-in the next start adopts, and
the stub comes back before anything else;
* masks with nothing routable after their last '*' ('*gram*') are reported
as unenforceable, not silently dropped.
The Blocker page now reports what is really in place — the hosts region, the
routed zones, and the masks this machine cannot do — rather than the whole
expansion. 39 desktop tests, including the ordering invariants.
