New address, Import key, Encrypt and Remove encryption called the
backend on the UI thread. Each ends in the backend's save, which waits on
the lock a scan holds for its whole duration and every refresh read holds
briefly, so during a scan the window froze until the scan ended. A create
or restore with a passphrase encrypted and saved just after its first
scan had started: for a restore, a freeze for the whole initial scan. A
server switch destroyed the old controller on the UI thread and joined
its refresh worker, which can sit for minutes in a read against a dead
server (each balance, notes or list read retries for ~62 s).
- The four ops run one at a time on a background lane and their results
are applied on the main thread; Settings shows "Working…" meanwhile.
Key and passphrase copies are wiped after the call, or when a queued
op is dropped.
- A create or restore encrypts and saves (an open unlocks) before the
first scan starts, so the save takes milliseconds and the scan runs on
the encrypted file.
- Import, Encrypt, Remove encryption and Receive's New address are
disabled while a scan runs ("Wait for blockchain to sync"); Redownload
blocks is disabled while an op is queued.
- A switch retires the old controller without blocking (queued ops
dropped, pending ones reported failed, its client shut down) and
destroys it on a background thread. It no longer saves on the way out:
the new client re-scans the blocks since the last save, as after a
restart.
- A switch waits for an op in flight, at most 15 s, so the op can't
finish and save on the old client while the new one owns the wallet
file. The Network tab already shows the new selection meanwhile.
- The refresh worker stops between backend commands, skips the remaining
server reads once one fails, and then retries after 4, 8, then 15 s
instead of every 2 s.
- Quit waits up to 2.5 s for an op in flight, e.g. Encrypt's save.
Encrypt and Remove encryption now report a failed save: the backend
returns it as a JSON error that the old check never saw, so the failure
was reported as success. The trimmed copy of a key typed into Import is
now wiped too, and stopping the refresh worker can no longer miss its
wakeup.

Six behavior-preserving consolidations from the audit:
- RPCClient::call() overloads share a private performCall() (payload dump +
curl_easy_perform + http code) and a static parseRpcResult() (error->RpcError
extraction). The timeout overload restores the prior timeout in both the
success and catch paths, exactly as before.
- The six UnifiedCallback methods delegate to one splitUnified() that builds
the (Callback, ErrorCallback) pair once (null-check preserved).
- One liteTrimCopy() in lite_connection_service replaces 5 file-local
trim-copy helpers across the lite slice.
- lite_wallet_controller's inline height JSON parse now routes through the
tested parseLiteHeightResponse().
- theme_effects.cpp: unpackRGB()/scaledAlpha() replace 14 RGB-unpack + 5
alpha-scale copy-paste blocks.
- settings.cpp load() uses loadScalar()/loadClamped() helpers for ~44 scalar
fields. Besides removing boilerplate this HARDENS loading: ~44 fields that
previously only checked contains() now also verify the JSON type, so a
malformed value in settings.json falls back to the default instead of
throwing/misreading. Custom cases (enum parses, legacy migrations, arrays)
stay inline; save() is unchanged.
Full-node + Lite build clean; ctest 1/1; hygiene clean.

LiteWalletGateway::refresh() aborted the entire refresh on the first command whose bridge
call or parse failed — which turned a single real-backend shape mismatch (e.g. syncstatus)
into a total, empty-everything refresh. Since the balance/addresses/list real shapes are
still unverified and we've already hit shape drift twice, make refresh resilient:
- Run every planned command; assembleLiteWalletRefreshBundle already skips failed results.
- result.ok = any usable data came back (bundle.complete still reflects all-succeeded).
- One command's failure now degrades gracefully — the other sections still populate.
testLiteWalletGatewayRefreshSkipsFailedCommand (fake balance returns invalid JSON) asserts
the refresh still succeeds with addresses/transactions/info populated and balance skipped.

Shared-bridge refactor (litelib is a global singleton; every LiteClientBridge calls
litelib_shutdown() on destruction, so services must not each own one):
- LiteWalletLifecycleService, LiteWalletGateway, LiteSyncService now take a non-owning
LiteClientBridge*; LiteWalletController owns the single bridge and passes &bridge_.
Sync + controller refresh:
- LiteSyncService::startSync executes the real "sync" command (was a stub).
- LiteWalletController: startSync() (auto-fires when a wallet becomes ready) and
refreshWalletState(WalletState&) — polls syncstatus, runs gateway.refresh(), maps the
bundle, applies balances/addresses/transactions/sync into WalletState.
Tests:
- fake_lite_backend.h returns command-shaped JSON (per tests/fixtures/lite/result_parsers.json).
- testLiteWalletControllerRefreshPopulatesState drives the full path against the fake.
- Surfaced + worked around a real integration issue: parseLiteInfoResponse requires
latest_block_height and the gateway aborts the whole refresh on the first command's
parse failure (fragile vs partial backend responses; hardening tracked for M2b-3).
Verified: ctest green; lite+backend, full-node, lite-no-backend apps + lite_smoke build clean.

Preserve the previously-uncommitted lite wallet implementation and related dev WIP
under version control:
- src/wallet/ lite services: client bridge, bridge runtime, connection, lifecycle,
sync, gateway, result parsers, state mapper, artifact contract/resolver, refresh
services, UI adapters, wallet_backend/capabilities. (Includes two small M1 fixes:
lifecycle walletReady now parses the response; default chain name -> "main".)
- src/chat/ chat protocol; tests/fixtures/ (lite + hushchat); tools/hushchat_fixture_check.cpp;
scripts/build-lite-backend-artifact.sh.
- Pre-existing modified app_network/security/wizard, network_refresh_service, sidebar,
mining_tab, bootstrap dialog, and version headers captured as-is.
