 - Observation: once the route-owned components controlled their own modal and page subtree rendering, the extra shell-owned play-control staging was no longer necessary for the DOM-wrap smoke coverage.
   Evidence: after moving authenticated startup into a route-owned wrapper and rendering play controls directly, `node ./scripts/run-selenium.js` still passed the extension-like DOM-wrap coverage against `/play`.
 
+- Observation: the first Milestone 4 attempt was still incomplete because authenticated startup remained route-agnostic behind `Session.InitializeAsync()`.
+  Evidence: `/admin` and `/play` could still hit the Firefox `insertBefore` circuit crash until admin and campaign-management routes stopped preloading play-only campaign scope, selected sheets, logs, and SSE startup during their first interactive batch.

 - Observation: the locally installed Snap Firefox build on this machine is viable for Selenium through `geckodriver`, but not for Playwright protocol control.
   Evidence: Playwright stalled during the `-juggler-pipe` handshake, while a `geckodriver` plus Selenium session against `/snap/firefox/current/usr/lib/firefox/firefox` completed the same Milestone 1 verification successfully.

 After Milestone 4, authenticated startup is now triggered by a route-owned wrapper instead of `Workspace.razor.cs`, the shared shell no longer uses `OnAfterRenderAsync`, and the play route renders its controls directly without shell-driven follow-up batches. The route-first rewrite is now functionally complete: host tests pass, the Selenium smoke suite passes, and the restored development-database fixture lets the backend coverage suite validate the full repo behavior again.
 
+Follow-up: the first pass at Milestone 4 removed shell-level `OnAfterRenderAsync`, but did not yet split `Session.InitializeAsync()` by route. The final follow-up fix made startup genuinely route-scoped by keeping `/admin` off play-only campaign scope and SSE startup, gating the full shell behind authenticated initialization, and adding direct `/admin` smoke coverage so this regression path stays visible.
+
 This section must be updated after each major milestone. When the implementation is complete, summarize which parts of the old workspace architecture were fully removed, which compatibility constraints remain, and whether the final startup path still depends on any multi-batch structural rendering.
