Ports --end-frame (image-to-video start+end interpolation) to the migrated host (flow.google.com). Refs #639.

Refs, not Closes: #639 is the umbrella migration issue, and scenes, extend, instructions, tools and project creation are still unported there.

What the app does

A bound end frame switches the submit to a different contract — rpc nprQif, an interpolation model key, and both frame ids in the body. Watching only the classic submit rpcs made every start+end run time out after a successful server-side submit, so the credit was spent and the CLI reported failure.

Changes

• attach_end_frame: mirror of the Start path (toolbar upload → pick by name → media id). The End chip is required empty-then-bound, with two bound chips read back, so a silently unbound Start surfaces here instead of mis-binding End.
• Dispatch gate serves local end frames on the migrated host. Frames by UUID or @Name still exit 36.
• submit_and_observe adds nprQif to the watched rpcs, asserts the interpolation key and both frame ids when an end frame is bound, and reads the bare batchexecute reply the interpolation rpc answers on.

Verification

Contributor (@stgmt), veo cohort: live paid run — submit on nprQif (status 6), terminal status 3, 8s 720x1280 mp4 downloaded (1.3 MB).

Maintainer, second cohort (ffroliva, flow.google.com), 2026-09-17, $0: both frames really uploaded and bound, submit intercepted with route.abort() so the request never reached Flow. Confirms the port and corrects two claims:

	measured	vs. original PR
rpcid	nprQif	confirmed
both media ids in body	yes	confirmed
model key	omni_flash_i2v_8s_first_last	not veo_3_1_interpolation_lite
rpc name carrier	URL rpcids param	not f.req

The key is cohort-dependent, so matching is on key shape (*_interpolation_* or *_first_last) — pinning either literal would refuse a valid run on the other cohort. _body_rpcid is kept as a second carrier, no longer described as the rule.

Findings: docs/superpowers/spikes/2026-09-17-migrated-end-frame-submit-contract.md.

Maintainer follow-up in this PR

Review found items that were taken over here rather than handed back:

• Dropped adoption-by-content. Its predicate required _i2v_ in the model key, which veo_3_1_interpolation_lite does not contain — so it could never fire for the veo case it was written for. Against the omni key it matched broadly enough to adopt any future rpc echoing composer state, and a parse failure on an adopted id is fatal rather than skipped: that trades a named timeout for a hard failure on an already-billed run. Both measured submit rpcids are in SUBMIT_RPCS.
• Body assertions are always armed, including t2v. The interpolation guard is a billing guard that matters precisely when nothing was asked for — a stale End chip makes the app submit nprQif on a run that requested no end frame.
• Spike script could not run. It raised NameError on its first statement (ruff F821, two hits) and had no network capture, so it cannot have produced the evidence above. It now navigates via ensure_editor, writes evidence in a finally, takes required --profile/--project, and gained the --mode submit route-abort probe.
• attach_end_frame had zero test coverage. The shared fake modelled one chip, which made the End path unmodellable; it now counts two, and all existing chip tests stay green.
• BDD scenarios passed with the feature deleted (verified by ablation — the ablated run also submitted). len(picked) == 2 is the discriminator; ablation now fails them.
• An existing e2e would have billed and then failed. test_e2e_i2v_start_end_frame_flags asserted the labs-only ui_automation_video.frame_attached, while both maintainer accounts are served flow.google.com, which logs migrated.frame_bound. It accepts either driver now.
• New zero-credit e2e pins the whole contract: test_e2e_end_frame_binds_the_second_chip_and_submits_interpolation — passes live in 38s, 0 credits.
• Docs: four sites plus three mirrors still said this exits 36 (USAGE x2, CONFIGURATION, INDEX, MCP, both video-production skill copies). CHANGELOG had the feature under Fixed with no user-visible entry.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Migrated Flow now supports local end frames for i2v requests. The composer binds End-chip media, validates interpolation submissions, observes recognized RPCs, and reports diagnostics. Tests, documentation, and a Playwright evidence probe cover the new flow.

Rebased onto current develop and addressed all three CodeRabbit findings in 51e5a6c7:

1. Spike sys.path — checkout src now inserted at index 0 instead of appended.
2. End-chip threshold — probe fires on any remaining empty chip (if after["empty_count"]), clicking the last empty chip; when Start is already bound the single remaining empty chip is End by construction (attach flow requires Start before End).
3. Bare batchexecute responses — the response filter now keeps non-batchexecute filtered while letting bare batchexecute responses (rpcid None) through to parse_frames for adopted RPCs. New regression test test_adopted_rpc_with_bare_batchexecute_response_resolves proves an adopted submit resolves off a bare-URL response.

Additionally, the interpolation validator is now key-shape based (interpolation/first_last) instead of pinned to veo_3_1_interpolation_lite, so omni's omni_flash_i2v_4s_first_last submits validate — verified live earlier today (4 omni seams generated and accepted; see sibling discussion). Test asserts both key shapes plus the rejection message.

Update both migrated-host capability descriptions.

run_video supports local end frames through attach_end_frame, and migrated_can_serve lists local start and end frames as supported. This docstring still says that end frames are not ported. State that local start and end frames are supported, and retain only the UUID / @Name limitation.

Apply the same correction to FlowHostMigratedError._default_remediation in src/gflow_cli/errors.py. Its “no end frame” text is also stale and is shown to users.

The UUID / @Name limitation remains accurate. The migrated host still rejects frame references by UUID or @Name.

Follow-up 92f0d79d addresses the CI failures and the second CodeRabbit pass:

• Page-pool deadlock (real bug, test_every_page_borrower_returns_the_page): the spike now pairs _checkout_page/_checkin_page via try/finally (_capture_on_page extraction). Good catch — the pool is size 1, this would have deadlocked any caller.
• 3 outdated BDD/parity tests: migrated_i2v.feature end-frame scenarios + test_migrated_i2v_parity.py now pin the ported contract (migrated host serves local start+end; no exit 36, no labs fallback) instead of the pre-port refusal.
• Stale capability docs (CodeRabbit): run_video docstring was already fixed in 51e5a6c7's parent hunk; this commit updates FlowHostMigratedError._default_remediation + KNOWN_ISSUES.md (+ regenerated website mirror) to local start (and end) frames.

Scope UUID frame support to the labs driver.

The migrated composer rejects i2v requests whose initial_frame or end_frame is a Flow media UUID. The documentation then unconditionally states that both fields accept UUIDs and that gflow attaches those assets. This directs migrated-host users to an unsupported request.

State that the UUID frame behavior applies only to the labs driver, or remove it from the migrated-host description. Apply the same correction to website/docs/MCP.md.

The probe passes raw request.post_data to _body_rpcid. The shared _post_data helper applies unquote_plus, which is required for the encoded f.req prefix. A URL-carried RPC is still caught by _rpcid(request.url), but a body-only RPC is missed and reaches route.continue_() instead of route.abort().

Use _post_data(request) for the probe body before _body_rpcid and the capture fields. Revise the spike documentation to state only that the URL carrier was observed on that cohort. The failed raw-body match does not prove that the RPC was absent from the body.

Make the scenario prove the interpolation contract.

The fake returns MEDIA_UP for both uploads, and the scripted submission uses eb1hJf with only that ID. The assertions can therefore pass without exercising nprQif or sending distinct start and end frame IDs.

Return a distinct ID for the end upload. Script nprQif with both IDs, and assert the observed RPC and request body.

Taken over and shipping — thank you, this was a good find

@stgmt — the port is right, and the part that mattered most is the part that is hardest to get: you noticed that the timeout was happening after a successful server-side submit. That is the difference between "the feature doesn't work" and "the feature works and bills you while reporting failure", and it is why nprQif was worth chasing at all.

Rather than send this back for another round, I have taken the remaining review items over and pushed them onto your branch. Your commits are intact underneath.

I re-ran it on a second cohort, and it holds

Both frames uploaded for real, submit intercepted with route.abort() so nothing reached Flow — $0, on ffroliva/flow.google.com:

rpcid       nprQif                          CONFIRMED
both ids    present in the submit body      CONFIRMED
model key   omni_flash_i2v_8s_first_last    (yours: veo_3_1_interpolation_lite)
rpc name    URL `rpcids` param              (yours: f.req body)

Two corrections there, and neither is a mistake on your part — they are cohort differences, which is exactly the thing this project keeps relearning. Our accounts default to omni, yours to veo. The consequence is that matching has to be on key shape, not a literal: pinning veo_3_1_interpolation_lite would have refused every valid run on our side, and pinning ours would refuse yours. Your first_last branch already handled this — it just had no citation, and now it has one. _body_rpcid stays as a second carrier for the case you saw.

Findings are written up in docs/superpowers/spikes/2026-09-17-migrated-end-frame-submit-contract.md, so the next person does not have to re-derive them from a PR description.

What I changed, and why

• Dropped adoption-by-content. Its predicate needed _i2v_ in the model key, and veo_3_1_interpolation_lite does not contain it — so that branch could never have fired for the veo case it was written for. Against the omni key it matched broadly enough to adopt an unrelated rpc, where a parse failure is fatal rather than skipped, on a run that has already been billed. Both measured rpcids are in SUBMIT_RPCS, so nothing needs adopting.
• The spike script could not run. url is undefined at line 69 (ruff F821), so it raised NameError before its first goto — and it had no network capture at all, so it could not have produced the wire evidence either way. It now navigates through ensure_editor, writes evidence in a finally, takes required --profile/--project (the defaults pointed at your account), and has a --mode submit route-abort probe.
• attach_end_frame had no tests. The shared fake modelled a single chip, which is why — the End path was unmodellable. It counts two now.
• The BDD scenarios passed with the feature deleted. I checked by ablation; the ablated run also submitted. len(picked) == 2 fixes it.
• An existing e2e would have spent a credit and then failed on a labs-only event name, since both maintainer accounts are on the migrated host.
• New zero-credit e2e pins the contract end to end: passes live in 38s.
• Docs: four more sites plus three mirrors still said this exits 36.

One process note

The live run in the PR description was real, but it is not re-runnable by anyone else, and the committed script could not reproduce it. For a blackbox surface the evidence has to survive the PR — a docs/superpowers/spikes/ note, or an e2e someone can run. Not a criticism of the work; it is the single highest-value habit in this repo.

Gates: ruff, ruff format, pyright (0 errors), doc links, website mirror, repo hygiene, council memory — all green. Offline suite 4489 passed. Rebased onto current develop.

Merging once CI reports. Thanks again — this closes the last i2v form on the migrated host.
