 ### Browser admin backend
 
+The 8D.6 document binds retained terminal state to its first validated username/role/session-stable CSRF tuple. Every later session adoption must match, otherwise both terminal hosts are hidden, both sockets/work are closed/fenced and a clean `/` document is required. Pagehide hides scrollback until same-session revalidation; no clearing is needed for unchanged-session restore or mode changes. Terminal-fit readiness uses successful-bounds caching and at most three generation-fenced animation-frame retries per external request, never unbounded polling.
+
+8D.6 `web_ui.c` now supplies the admin-only Serial/Admin selector using this backend. Selection leaves serial and any open admin socket connected and draining; only focus, displayed terminal and keyboard destination change. Broker identity/lease and writer controls remain serial-owned in both views. Admin opens/reopens explicitly and closes independently. Two page-lifetime terminals have separate 5,000-line scrollbacks and 64 KiB callback-accounted pending output each; browser overflow is dropped with visible counts. Admin input is bounded to 4 KiB admission and 512-byte frames. Logout/expiry/page exit closes both with generation fencing and socket-listener cleanup; bfcache revalidates serial/session but never automatically reopens admin. No server policy/capacity changes or 8D.7 lifecycle parity. See `docs/phase8d6_implementation.md`; the following paragraph describes the original backend boundary, before its UI entry was added.
+
 8D.5 additionally supplies `web_admin_transport` and `web_admin_tickets`: one optional admin socket, two 30-second digest-only tickets bound to current originating session/principal, the same two shared console slots, no serial broker client. Ticket POST requires cookie/Origin/CSRF/admin; ordinary GET upgrade requires cookie/Origin/admin/ticket and console admission before 101. Six total HTTPS sockets remain, LRU purge is disabled, and two routes bring the handler budget to 16. Optional admin registration/PSRAM allocation failures do not take down M1. A 20 ms ESP timer queues at most one HTTPD poll, with no new task; only HTTPD accesses the 1,552-byte PSRAM-only RX/TX payload or socket IO. Notifiers close the generation-qualified console and flag the socket. HTTPD shuts down the verified current fd directly and owns subsequent read cleanup, avoiding IDF's queued reusable `sock_db *` close race. Detach fences submissions; failed stop retains ownership, and queued state is retired only after successful HTTPD stop. Console dispatcher/prompt and owner input/output/idle checks enforce session and principal currentness. WEB supports deferred self-close only; parsed canonical policy denies unsupported lifecycle/network/account mutations before handler side effects. No normal UI entry, typed settings or lifecycle parity is included. See `docs/phase8d5_implementation.md` for validation limits and exact restrictions.

 - 8D.3 HTTP policy: `web_cookie_auth` owns public login/challenge/login POST/session/logout routes and protected-route checks; `web_auth_parse` handles bounded values/JSON. `web_httpd_adapter` alone reads private IDF 5.5.0 header scratch, rejects duplicate fields, defers 101 until transport admission and wipes consumed scratch while preserving right-aligned pending bytes. No SDK patch. `src/CMakeLists.txt` supplies private includes and compiles HTTPD warning/debug logs out. Test with `python3 tests/web_cookie_auth/run.py` and `python3 tests/web_auth_parse/run.py`.
 - 8D.3 UI: `src/web_login_ui.{c,h}` serves standalone `/login`; `web_ui.c` validates session before serial connect/restore and handles logout/401 safely. Both scripts hash-bound, auth documents/app no-store. Tests: `python3 tests/web_login_ui/run.py` and `python3 tests/web_ui_session/run.py`. Live cutover host-tested/build-verified, M1 validated by user sign-off (numeric reserves open): `docs/phase8d3_implementation.md`.
 - Asset constraint: `web_assets_data.c` is checked-in generated input to the build; do not hand-edit or regenerate casually.
+- 8D.6 UI: `web_ui.c` adds admin-only Serial/Admin selection and explicit admin open/close through existing endpoints. Serial socket/client/lease survives mode switches; hidden output drains into independent 5,000-line/64 KiB-pending terminals with visible browser-drop counts. Selected keyboard only; logout/expiry/pagehide closes both with handler cleanup. Session identity changes require a clean document before adopting the view; same-session restore retains hidden-until-validated buffers. Fit readiness retries are bounded to three and cache only success. Focused `tests/web_ui_session/run.py` now has 16 groups; target checks remain pending in `docs/phase8d6_implementation.md`. 8D.5 is user-validated; no 8D.7 restriction change.

+- **8D.6 independent review fixes implemented / host-tested / build-verified (2026-09-06), target pending:** Fixed both P2 findings without unrelated scope. Before session adoption, compare retained username/role/session-stable CSRF; mismatch hides old terminals, closes both routes/fences work and replaces the document at `/`, including live admin and logout paths. Pagehide keeps buffers hidden until same-session validation; unchanged identities retain scrollback. Fit caches bounds only after valid measurement/success, with three bounded readiness retries, teardown cancellation and generation fencing. Expanded UI harness passes **16 groups**; login eight groups, cookie/admin integration, parser 268 and store/serial reruns pass.

 ## Browser authentication has a narrow version-pinned HTTPD boundary
 
+**8D.6 terminal separation:** Browser selection never reconnects serial or requests/releases a writer lease. Hidden connected terminals continue draining with separate bounded scrollback/pending writes and visible browser-drop accounting; only selected keyboard input is sent. Admin admission/reopen is explicit, close is isolated, and logout/expiry/pagehide tears down both routes. Keep the two page-lifetime input subscriptions stable across switches and remove socket callbacks on close. UI role hiding complements, never replaces, backend authorization. Existing unsupported WEB lifecycle/account-command restrictions remain for 8D.7.
+
 **Decision:** 8D.3 uses `web_cookie_auth` plus digest-only session/challenge stores, mandatory Origin/CSRF mutations and no live session/challenge/ticket eviction. Four one-hour absolute sessions deliberately interrupt long serial connections at expiry. No Basic compatibility path remains.
 
 **Browser Origin serialization:** Authentication POST fetches use `mode: 'cors'` while retaining fixed same-origin URLs, `credentials: 'same-origin'`, redirect rejection and CSP `connect-src 'self'`. Under `no-referrer`, non-CORS POST mode can serialize Origin as `null` (confirmed in Firefox during M1 testing). Do not fix that by accepting null server-side or weakening CSP/referrer policy; no cross-origin server permission is added.
