A raw firmware dump has no format to detect, so IDA fell back to x86 at address
0. It doesn't fail — it opens, analyses, and finds nothing. An AArch64 image
loaded this way gave 0 functions; told the truth it gives 35.
ida-tui fw.bin --processor arm --base 0x8000000
and per binary in a project, which is what a multi-image firmware actually
needs:
{"path": "app.bin", "processor": "arm", "base": "0x8000000"}
idapro.open_database() already accepted IDA command-line switches; nothing was
passing any. Plumbed BinaryRef -> WorkerPool -> WorkerClient -> worker argv, plus
a load_args for the single-binary path that has no project ref.
base is written the way people say it (0x8000000, int or string, any base).
IDA's -b is in PARAGRAPHS — -b1000 loads at 0x10000 — so BinaryRef.load_args
converts, and a base that isn't 16-byte aligned is refused rather than silently
landing 16x off. ida_args passes anything else through.
Two bugs found by testing the whole path rather than the happy one:
* Project.load() whitelisted path/label when normalising entries, so the load
options were dropped the first time a project was reopened — set a processor,
come back tomorrow, it's gone.
* Re-passing the switches to an EXISTING database makes IDA refuse the open
(rc != 0, no functions). The .i64 already records how the image was loaded, so
the worker skips them once a database exists. My first guard checked
splitext(path) + ".i64" and never fired, because IDA names it "<file>.i64" —
keeping the extension. It checks both spellings now.
Verified on a real AArch64 blob: fresh load 35 functions based at 0x8002440,
reopen 35 again, and the CLI rejects an unaligned or non-numeric --base.
tests: +6 project (options recorded, paragraph conversion, file round-trip,
add() takes them, an ELF passes nothing, hex-string base). 39/0 project, 195/0
scenarios, 30/0 project UI, 36/0 index, 27/0 pool.

Three shipped features were missing from the feature list: the Ghidra-style
synced split view (s), the filterable strings browser ("), and the ida-tui
command palette (Ctrl+P).

The Architecture section still described the deleted client.py (HTTP MCP client);
replace it with worker.py + worker_client.py + errors.py, and note the
patch_server custom-tool injection. Modernize "What it does" (unified IDA-style
listing as the default view, F5/Tab decompile, xref kinds, the new line-motion
keys, fuzzy palette) and drop stale mentions of the 127.0.0.1:8745 supervisor and
"page over the MCP server".

The idalib worker is the only backend now, so remove the dead HTTP/supervisor
surface entirely (~2200 lines):
* deleted idatui/client.py (the IDAClient HTTP/JSON-RPC transport + session
manager), idatui/tui.py (the old mcp TUI entry, superseded by launch.py),
spawn.sh, and systemd/ (the supervisor unit).
* deleted the mcp-only tests (stress_client, smoke_client, test_keepalive,
stress_paging, rpc_smoke, serverctl.sh, pane_smoke, test_domain) -- the worker
pilot (tests/test_scenarios.py) supersedes them.
* migrated the tmux RPC harness (idatui/pane.py) to the worker: it spawns
`idatui.launch <binary> --rpc <sock>` instead of the mcp `idatui.tui`, drops
the supervisor auto-start/ensure machinery, and reaps our own worker
(idatui/worker.py) instead of ida_pro_mcp.idalib_server. --db/--url/--no-
ensure-server are gone; --open is required.
* __init__ / __main__ / domain no longer import client (exceptions come from
errors.py, the domain client hint is WorkerClient); pyproject points both
console scripts at idatui.launch; README + ida-tui header describe the
worker-only flow.
What stays (by design): the ida_pro_mcp *package* (the worker reuses its @tool
functions in-process) and server/patch_server.py (the worker injects its custom
tools on startup). Verified: whole package imports + IdaTui constructs + pilot
lists 31 scenarios. The worker pilot (134 pass / 2 known flakes) is the E2E gate.

Opening a binary now defaults to our own idalib worker; the ida-pro-mcp HTTP
supervisor path is deprecated (kept only for --db/attach and --backend mcp).
* launch.py: --backend default resolves to worker for a fresh binary open, mcp
for the attach modes (--db / bare `ida-tui`, which have no worker equivalent);
explicit --backend or IDATUI_BACKEND still wins. Logs a deprecation notice when
the mcp path is used.
* Deprecation markers on client.py and server/patch_server.py; the ida-tui shell
header and README now describe the worker as primary and note
$IDATUI_WORKER_PYTHON. TODO tracks the removal checklist.
No code deleted yet — the mcp fallback stays until the worker is proven on a box
where idalib can spawn (pilot against --backend worker is the gate). Backend
resolution matrix verified: `ida-tui bash`->worker, bare/`--db`->mcp, explicit
flag/env honored.

A caveman entry point so you don't hand-craft the plumbing every time. It:
* ensures the ida-pro-mcp supervisor is up — starts spawn.sh detached
(start_new_session, tmux-free) and waits for the port if it's down;
* recovers a binary wedged by a hard-killed worker — sweeps the stale
unpacked .id0/.id1/.id2/.nam/.til next to the .i64 and retries (the packed
.i64 is never touched);
* adopts an already-open session for the same binary (idempotent), else
idb_opens it with a sane idle-TTL;
* launches the TUI attached to that session with keepalive on.
./ida-tui /path/to/binary # open a binary and drive it
./ida-tui # attach to the sole session
./ida-tui --db <id> # attach to a specific session
Pieces: idatui/launch.py (logic, reuses pane.py's server probe), a repo-root
`ida-tui` sh wrapper (resolves ~/ida-venv python, keeps idatui importable from
any cwd), and an `ida-tui` console-script in pyproject. --help works without
textual (app imported late). README documents both the one-liner and the
manual recovery. gitignore bin/ (binary targets, like targets/).
Verified live: ensure_server up-detection, open, adopt (same session id), and
lock-sweep all work against a running supervisor.
