The control drawer on headless dashboard apps opened itself on EVERY window open, forever -- 2.6 seconds of tray over the app's own top edge to teach a lesson (the controls live in this tongue) that is learned in a few exposures. Same doctrine as the dashboard's deep-link intro: pedagogy that knows when to step aside. A per-account kv counter records deliveries, once per window: a flash played while the user could see it, or the user opening the drawer themselves (hover, tap, focus) -- the stronger proof, since the drawer is a headless app's only chrome and must never decay out of a user's awareness. After three, new windows keep the bare tongue and the flash stops; hover, tap, and focus expansion never decay. The attach is synchronous and the stored count is not: the first drawer of a session races the read against a short cap and defaults to teaching -- a hung read must not hold the intro hostage, and every failure mode (unparseable value, failed read, timed-out read, failed write) errs toward teaching once more, never toward never teaching. The resolved count is cached and kept current in memory, so later windows decide synchronously and a session's own not-yet-written increments still count. kv.incr keeps two devices from losing an increment, and the pre-read caps the key once the lesson is learned. If the user beats a still-deciding flash to the drawer, the flash is skipped rather than played over their hand -- its auto-collapse would shut a drawer they are actively using. A flash in a hidden tab still defers to first reveal (it rides requestAnimationFrame, as before) and an unseen one is never counted.
