A separate Luna repository audit checked the results against the SDK boundary and existing issues. The dated source log, workarounds, evidence confidence, fit assessment, and coverage gaps are recorded in [gate #71](https://github.com/SYMBaiEX/OpenController/issues/71). + +The sweep found detailed but low-fit desktop Computer Use reports such as [Codex #44074](https://github.com/openai/codex/issues/44074), upstream Proton/Godot/SDL/Sunshine driver or consumer reports, and Steam Controller accessibility anecdotes from 2015–2023. These do not establish an uncovered OpenController defect. OpenController already supports bounded gamepad presses and cancellation (#39, #34), while controller profile documentation says its keyboard/mouse names do not emit desktop events. The one-handed Steam Controller exchange describes concurrent Steam Input devices but does not demonstrate an unmet OpenController API need. + +The repository audit selected no new issue. Existing #46 (helper readiness) remains gated on an owned helper acknowledgement contract; #60 (persistent-state expiry) remains deferred because no OpenController stale-state incident was shown and timer/error ordering is nontrivial. #21, #28, and #62 still need a named host/game or supported hardware test path. The decision is a deliberate no-build result, not a claim that demand is absent: Reddit and several search/community endpoints returned 403, Steam search rate-limited, and no first-party telemetry or hardware verification is available. + +The Cycle 10 decision DAG is: + +```mermaid +flowchart TD + A[AI, gaming, accessibility source sweep] --> B[Repository and duplicate-issue audit] + B --> C{Uncovered SDK-owned candidate with evidence?} + C -->|No: Cycle 10| D[Record no-build decision and close milestone 9] + C -->|Yes| E[Create scoped issues and dependency DAG] + E --> F[Parallel Luna worktrees and PRs] + F --> G[Exact-head checks and independent review] + G --> H[Merge in DAG order; start next research gate] + D --> H +``` + +The recurring goal [#55](https://github.com/SYMBaiEX/OpenController/issues/55) carries the research/build/review/merge checklist forward.
