TASK-223: Confirmed WASM toolchain uses Zig 0.15.2 (not 0.14)
- nix run nixpkgs#zig → 0.15.2
- WASM build succeeds (5.26 MB)
- No 0.14 references in build chain

TASK-222: Browser test failure was transient
- 3 consecutive runs: 30/30 passed
- Round 79 failure could not be reproduced
- No code changes required

Release status: Only TASK-220 (CI verification) remains before Tom sign-off

 ## Progress Log
 - 2025-12-26: Created from Round 79 observation; transient failure during subagent run.
+- 2025-12-26: Investigation complete. Ran browser tests 3 consecutive times, all passed (30/30 each run).
 
 ## Completion Notes
-(Empty until done.)
+**Date:** 2025-12-26
+
+**Conclusion:** The failure was transient, not reproducible.
+
+**Test Results:**
+- Run 1: 30/30 passed (17.7s)
+- Run 2: 30/30 passed (15.6s)
+- Run 3: 30/30 passed (15.4s)
+
+**Root Cause Analysis:**
+The original failure during Round 79 was likely caused by:
+- Transient timing issue (browser tests involve SharedWorker coordination)
+- Resource contention during subagent parallel execution
+- Network/OPFS timing race
+
+**No code changes required.** Browser tests are stable and passing consistently.

+# TASK-223 — Verify WASM Build Uses Zig 0.15
+
+## Goal
+Ensure the WASM build uses Zig 0.15 (not 0.14) and that CI/release workflows reference the correct toolchain.
+
+## Status
+- State: done
+- Priority: HIGH (release blocker)
+- Created: 2025-12-26
+- Completed: 2025-12-26
+- Triggered by: Tom's request to verify WASM toolchain version
+
+## Context
+The release scope for `0.16.300-preview` includes Native + WASM + Browser. Round 77 fixed WASM build compatibility for Zig 0.15 (TASK-212), but we need to verify:
+1. The WASM build actually uses Zig 0.15 (not 0.14)
+2. CI workflows reference Zig 0.15
+3. Build scripts don't have hardcoded 0.14 references
+
+## Files to Verify
+- `zig/build.zig` — WASM target configuration
+- `zig/wasm-build/build-sqlite-wasm.sh` — WASM build script
+- `.github/workflows/zig-tests.yaml` — CI workflow
+- `.github/workflows/publish.yaml` — Release workflow
+- `flake.nix` — Nix toolchain version
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+1. [x] `nix run nixpkgs#zig -- version` returns 0.15.x — **Verified: 0.15.2**
+2. [x] WASM build succeeds with Zig 0.15: `cd zig && nix run nixpkgs#zig -- build wasm` — **Verified: Build succeeded**
+3. [x] No references to Zig 0.14 in build scripts or CI workflows — **Verified: No 0.14 references found**
+4. [x] CI workflows use Zig 0.15 (or nixpkgs default which is 0.15) — **Verified: All use `nix run nixpkgs#zig`**
+
+## Parent Docs / Cross-links
+- Release tracker: `.tasks/backlog/TASK-209-release-0.16.300-preview.md`
+- WASM build fix: `.tasks/done/TASK-212-fix-wasm-build-for-release.md`
+- Release decision: `.wishes/blocked-on-tom/release-readiness-decision.md`
+
+## Progress Log
+- 2025-12-26: Created as release blocker per Tom's request.
+- 2025-12-26: Verification complete — all criteria pass.

+**Date:** 2025-12-26
+
+### Verification Results
+
+1. **Zig Version**: `nix run nixpkgs#zig -- version` → **0.15.2** ✓
+
+2. **WASM Build**: `cd zig && nix run nixpkgs#zig -- build wasm` → **Succeeded** ✓
+   - Output artifacts:
+     - `libcrsqlite.a` (5.26 MB) — static library for embedding
+     - `crsqlite.wasm` (5.26 MB) — standalone WASM object
+
+3. **No 0.14 References**: Searched across all relevant files:
+   - `zig/build.zig` — clean
+   - `zig/wasm-build/build-sqlite-wasm.sh` — clean  
+   - `.github/workflows/zig-tests.yaml` — clean
+   - `.github/workflows/publish.yaml` — clean
+   - `flake.nix` — clean
+
+4. **CI Workflow Verification**:
+   - `zig-tests.yaml`: Uses `nix run nixpkgs#zig` (nixpkgs default = 0.15.2)
+   - `publish.yaml`: Uses `nix run nixpkgs#zig` (nixpkgs default = 0.15.2)
+   - No hardcoded Zig version overrides
+
+### Conclusion
+The WASM build correctly uses Zig 0.15.2 from nixpkgs. All CI and release workflows use the nixpkgs default Zig, which is 0.15.2. No legacy 0.14 references exist in the codebase.
+
+**Release Blocker Status**: RESOLVED — WASM toolchain is on Zig 0.15.
