New StructEditor overlay: left is the list of local structs/unions, right is an
editable C definition. Enter loads a struct (reconstructed as C from its member
layout via type_inspect), Ctrl+S declares it (create or update via declare_type),
Ctrl+N starts a new one, Del deletes, Esc returns to the list then closes.

Domain: Struct model + Program.list_structs / struct_source / declare_type /
delete_type (anonymous $-types filtered).

Delete needs a 'del_type' tool the ida-pro-mcp server doesn't currently expose;
delete_type detects its absence and reports a clear message instead of failing.
Create/read/update work fully.

Pilot checks: open, list, view C, create, update-in-place, delete(-or-report),
close. full suite 84/84.

<id>urn:sha1:21d2cbbfcdbb712b907573b784bc9d98d5c5e648</id>
<content type='text'>
Root cause: idalib workers run an idle watchdog (worker_lifecycle.py) that
self-exits after idle_ttl_sec (default 600s) of no requests -- deliberate
resource hygiene for a shared/ephemeral supervisor, wrong for an interactive
TUI. CLI-opened startup binary always gets 600s (no flag).

Fix (both verified against a 12s-TTL session):
- IDAClient.bump_idle_ttl(1e9): re-open (idempotent) re-applies TTL, no upper
  cap -&gt; effectively immortal. Primary fix, call once at startup.
- IDAClient.keepalive()/KeepAlive: background server_health heartbeat resets the
  watchdog; covers adopted sessions too. Safety net.

tests/test_keepalive.py: 4/4 (heartbeat + bump both keep a short-TTL worker
alive past 2x TTL). docs updated with why + fix.

<content type='text'>
- Program: model registry + small prefetch pool; cache invalidation hooks
- FunctionIndex: lazy pagination (advance by len, clamp page=500), filter globs,
  viewport windows; full 10,092-func enumerate matches survey in ~3.1s
- DisasmModel: block-cached windowed disasm (256/block), forward+back prefetch,
  cached instruction totals; deep window revisit 196ms -&gt; 0ms (cache proven)
- Decompilation: truncation-aware, hard-failure surfaced as data (monster funcs)
- resolve(): int/hex/symbol via lookup_funcs (string-array query shape)
- tests/test_domain.py: 17/17 on both ls (~290 funcs) and libcrypto (10k+52k-insn)
- smoke_client no longer assumes 'main' exists (works on libraries)
- doc: idle_ttl worker self-exit finding ("not reachable" needs re-open)

<title>persistent MCP client: warm handshake, keep-alive pool, error taxonomy, thread-safe</title>

<id>urn:sha1:eec630887ce72a7dafae4c33f5e85ad7c746b038</id>
<content type='text'>
- IDAClient: single handshake, ~7ms warm calls (vs ~60ms cold CLI)
- keep-alive connection pool over http.client; concurrent-safe (40 threads OK)
- grounded error taxonomy: IDAToolError on isError, soft per-item errors as data
- session-expiry recovery (404 -&gt; re-handshake -&gt; retry), bounded transport retries
- auto db-injection + resolve_db (ignores stale empty-id sessions)
- live smoke test: 13/13 pass
