Conflicting adapter

Error message

Conflicting adapter

What it means

After confirming exactly one anchor binding, transform_binding refuses to run when the source already contains the string 'cppNativeIdentificationReader' — i.e. this very adapter (or a competing one) has already been injected. The check is idempotency/conflict protection: double-injection would nest adapters and break the identification callback.

Solutions

1. Skip transform — the file is already adapted; the current invocation is a no-op re-apply.
2. Restore the original service file (SHA 3e6fd4a8...) from the pinned bundle, then re-run transform once.
3. If another tool injected a conflicting adapter, uninstall/disable it before using this feature.
4. Verify via the tool's status command whether the adaptation is already active before calling apply.

Example fix

// before: unconditional apply loop
apply_native_browser(paths)?; // second call -> Conflicting adapter
// after: idempotent guard
if is_already_adapted(paths)? { return Ok(()); }
apply_native_browser(paths)?;

let text = std::fs::read_to_string(&service_path)?;
if text.contains("cppNativeIdentificationReader") {
    return Ok(()); // already adapted; skip transform entirely
}

fn is_already_adapted(source: &[u8]) -> bool {
    std::str::from_utf8(source)
        .map(|t| t.contains("cppNativeIdentificationReader"))
        .unwrap_or(false)
}

match transform_binding(source, control) {
    Ok(patched) => install(patched),
    Err(e) if e.to_string().contains("Conflicting adapter") => Ok(()), // idempotent no-op
    Err(e) => return Err(e),
}

When it happens

Trigger: Running transform on a service file that was previously adapted by this tool (or a conflicting adapter using the same helper symbol): repeated 'apply' invocations without restoring the original, a transform that succeeded but whose atomic file move later failed leaving adapted content in place, or another patching tool injecting the same reader name.

Common situations: Users toggling the opt-in native-browser identification feature on twice; switching profile/apply flows that each run transform; leftover adapted file after a crash mid-apply; coexisting community patches of the same bundle.
