Use Android 8-compatible batched find/stat with NUL-framed names and raw symlink targets. Preserve malformed or invalid UTF-8 records as partial evidence with exact source bytes. List hidden direct children without synthetic navigation entries.
Share process byte capture with UTF-8 callers and screenshots, removing duplicate timeout and cancellation supervision. Verified 35 focused process, ADB, CLI and MCP tests; compatibility checked against AOSP Oreo sources. Live Android device/emulator verification was not run.
