GOAL: port PySide6 + shiboken6 to the FreeCAD WebAssembly toolchain (static, no-dlopen, asyncify, no-pthreads) so FreeCAD's Python/PySide workbenches and macros work in the browser. This is the keystone dependency. Ground EVERYTHING in the real files — investigate, do not speculate. ESTABLISHED GROUND TRUTH (verified this session): - PySide+shiboken SOURCE: /tmp/pyside-setup (git branch 6.11, matches Qt). sources/shiboken6, sources/shiboken6_generator, sources/pyside6 (check exact dir names). Built via setup.py + coin_build_instructions.py OR raw CMake per sources/*/CMakeLists.txt + README.*.md at repo root. - HOST toolchain (x86-64 Linux): clang/llvm 21 with libclang at /usr/lib/llvm-21/lib/libclang.so (llvm-config = 21.1.8); host CPython 3.14.4 (/usr/bin/python3, headers /opt/toolchains/src/Python-3.14.4/Include); host Qt 6.11.1 at /opt/toolchains/qt/6.11.1/gcc_64. - TARGET (wasm): emscripten 4.0.12 (/opt/toolchains/emsdk); Qt 6.11.1 asyncify single-thread at /opt/toolchains/qt-asyncify/6.11.1/wasm_singlethread (QT_FEATURE_thread == -1, i.e. -no-feature-thread); wasm CPython 3.14 at /opt/toolchains/python-wasm (headers include/python3.14, lib/python3.14.zip). FreeCAD-wasm build dir: /opt/toolchains/src/freecad-gui-build (reads Qt6_DIR=qt-asyncify/.../wasm_singlethread). - FreeCAD build links Python C-extensions STATICALLY and registers them via PyImport_AppendInittab in a generated src/Main/WasmInittab*.cpp (NO dlopen on wasm). PySide bindings must follow this model: build as STATIC libs, expose PyInit_* for each module (PySide6.QtCore etc.), register in the inittab. - FreeCAD source: /home/magik6k/lcad-wasm/freecad-port/FreeCAD (branch wasm-port). It ships a PySide shim at src/Ext/PySide (a compat layer) and uses shiboken (getCppPointer/wrapInstance) e.g. in Gui/PythonWrapper.cpp. FREECAD_USE_PYSIDE/FREECAD_USE_SHIBOKEN currently OFF. - KNOWN HARD ISSUES to design around: (1) static + NO dlopen — PySide's normal build emits shared modules; must emit static + inittab. (2) Qt is -no-feature-thread — shiboken typesystem for QtCore references QThread/QMutex/etc.; those must be excluded/guarded. (3) CPython 3.14 C-API changes vs what PySide 6.11 targets. (4) asyncify + JS-exceptions (-fexceptions) flags must match FreeCAD's; libshiboken/libpyside signal dispatch must be single-thread/asyncify safe. (5) binary size (wasm is already 196 MB; each Qt binding module is tens of MB — target ONLY the modules FreeCAD needs). DELIVERABLES — do BOTH: 1. Write a thorough, concrete, execution-ready plan to /home/magik6k/lcad-wasm/pyside-port/<SLUG>/plan.md with exact commands, cmake args, file paths, patch snippets (precise enough to apply), and any test outputs you gathered. Put patch/new-file contents as separate files in that dir. If you build/test something, capture the real output. 2. Return the structured summary (schema). Depth goes in plan.md; keep summary fields tight. Token cost is not a concern — be exhaustive and correct. Prefer running real commands (grep, ls, cmake --help, small test builds) over speculation. === YOUR SCOPE: Define the minimal proof-of-concept + validation test (slug: poc-minimal) === Define the SMALLEST end-to-end proof of concept that validates the whole pipeline: host-generate a tiny binding (e.g. QtCore restricted to QObject + QString + a couple methods, or the smallest viable QtCore), cross-compile it static for wasm, register PyInit_QtCore in an inittab, link into a minimal test executable (or into FreeCAD), and prove 'from PySide6 import QtCore; QtCore.QObject()' works in the browser/node-wasm. Specify the exact reduced typesystem, the build steps, and the pass/fail test. This is milestone 1 — getting it green de-risks everything. Also define milestone 2 (QtWidgets minimal) and 3 (FreeCAD integration: FREECAD_USE_PYSIDE=ON + inittab + getMainWindow()). Create /home/magik6k/lcad-wasm/pyside-port/poc-minimal/ and write plan.md (required) + any patches. Return the schema with deliverableFile=/home/magik6k/lcad-wasm/pyside-port/poc-minimal/plan.md.

I need to dig into the actual codebase to understand what I'm working with—exploring the source structure, checking existing builds, and mapping out the overall architecture so I can tackle this systematically.
Fable
I'll investigate the real files before writing anything. Let me start exploring the source trees in parallel.

I see the build system uses `add_library(${module_NAME} MODULE ...)` for regular builds, but needs STATIC for WebAssembly. The generated module wrapper in `qtcore_module_wrapper.cpp` defines the PyInit function, and I need to look at either an example of that file or the generator template to understand how it's structured. I'm also exploring shiboken's `--drop-type` option as part of the reduced typesystem approach.

Now I'm checking how the module init function name gets derived from the generator source and whether there's a way to customize it away from the `PyInit_` prefix. I also need to verify whether `SHIBOKEN_PYTHON_EXTENSION_SUFFIX` affects the import behavior, and I'm searching th  …

So the `PyInit_QtCore` function is generated with the export macro, and it uses the module name "QtCore" from `moduleName()`. This means the import path is just "QtCore" rather than the full "PySide6.QtCore" — though in practice, PySide6 imports work as `from PySide6 import QtCore` because the actual extension module is located at `PySide6/QtCore.abi3.so`, but the initialization function itself is named `PyInit_QtCore` without the package prefix.

For the static linking approach with `PyImport_AppendInittab`, I can register the full dotted name "PySide6.QtCore" directly, and CPython's import system will handle it correctly as long as the parent "PySide6" package exists somewhere in the Pytho  …

The default PySide6 initialization imports Shiboken and sets up Qt directories, but for a WebAssembly static build we need a minimal version that doesn't depend on filesystem DLL lookups. I'm creating a stripped-down __init__.py that handles the shiboken6 package import—which wraps the Shiboken C-extension—without those filesystem dependencies.

Now I need to examine how the Shiboken C module's PyInit function is structured and ensure both the shiboken6 package and libpyside support library are properly configured for static linking, including registering PyInit_Shiboken.

I'm working through how the Shiboken module gets registered — the C-extension is named "Shiboken" with PyInit_Shiboken as the entry point, and it's imported through shiboken6.Shiboken via the package's __init__.py. For the static POC, I need to register PyInit_Shiboken as "shiboken6.Shiboken" in inittab and provide the shiboken6/__init__.py file on the Python path, though I'm realizing there might be something missing in how shibokenmodule.cpp handles this.

I have enough context now to draft the POC plan. Let me verify a few critical details: whether shiboken6 can be built for the host system, and confirm the build strategy of compiling shiboken6 (both the library and generator) for the host machine first, then using that generator to create bindings for the target.

For the reduced typesystem, I'm weighing two approaches: either create a minimal typesystem with just QObject and QString, or use the full typesystem_core.xml but selectively mark classes with generate="yes" or "no" to control what gets bound. The challenge is that QObject references many types, so a truly minimal binding requires careful selection. I'm also considering whether to   …

A minimal shiboken binding without Qt is the right approach for this first milestone—it generates PyInit_minimal and lets me validate the whole stack: shiboken runtime, CPython 3.14, emscripten, asyncify, and the inittab mechanism without the complexity of Qt dependencies. I need to verify whether the FreeCAD build already has libshiboken and libpyside available, and confirm the CPython wasm build includes the necessary headers.

Actually, the extension suffix doesn't matter for static inittab registration since we're registering by module name string rather than filename. The minimal binding test is straightforward with no Qt dependencies, which is good. For the asyncify trampoline issue with wasm CPython  …

Let me confirm exact inittab wiring lines and the module wrapper naming, then write the plan.

I'm starting to outline the supporting files I need to create for this minimal PySide6 WASM setup—a reduced QtCore typesystem definition, a global header for shiboken, a minimal package initialization, and the shiboken configuration.

I also need to think through the typesystem carefully. For a minimal QObject binding, I could either expose all public methods or selectively remove ones I don't need. The tricky part is handling dependencies like QThread, which QObject references through methods like thread() and moveToThread(). I should note how the thread-related types are handled, possibly referencing the existing qt-nothread-typesystem approach for guidance on this POC.

The shibokenmodule subdirectory is trying to use a generator that hasn't been built yet because the `Shiboken6::shiboken6` imported target doesn't exist. The top-level CMakeLists builds the generator first, then shibokenmodule should reference it via that imported target, but the alias isn't being created in this build configuration. In a normal in-tree build, the generator target is named `shiboken6` and should have an alias `Shiboken6::shiboken6` pointing to it.

The shiboken6 generator lives in its own source directory separate from the main library code. The build process needs to happen in two stages: first compile the generator from `sources/shiboken6_generator` to produce the executable and the Shiboken6Tools package, then build `sources/shiboken6` which contains libshiboken and the module, since it depends on finding the generator through that package.

Libshiboken needs several generated headers—sbkversion.h is straightforward, but the signature embedding files require the shibokensupport module, and there's also the SHIBOKEN_NO_EMBEDDING_PYC configuration to consider. The real challenge is building libshiboken itself for wasm, which is the core runtime component of this port.

My approach for the POC is to cross-compile libshiboken using CMake with the emscripten toolchain, targeting wasm Python. I've already validated the critical pieces: the host generator builds and runs, it produces PyInit_minimal correctly, and the generated wrappers reference the necessary libshiboken headers.

Most of the libshiboken files are compiling for wasm except for sbknumpyview.cpp, which fails because the View class declaration is gated behind a HAVE_NUMPY define that's not set in this build context. Normally this file compiles to nothing when numpy is absent, but the guard here is creating a partial definition that's causing the issue.

I've successfully validated the core pipeline: the host generator builds and runs, PyInit_minimal generation works, the generated wrapper compiles for wasm with CPython 3.14, and libshiboken's runtime compiles for wasm. The signature module also compiled despite needing embedding headers, which suggests the conditional compilation is handling it correctly  …
Fable
Excellent real validation: host generator builds/runs, generates `PyInit_minimal`, the generated wrapper compiles for wasm/CPython 3.14, and 14/15 libshiboken runtime files compile (the 1 failure is numpy-gated and excluded). Let me capture the build-log and write the plan.

I'm ready to write out the comprehensive plan document now that I have all the necessary context, including the libpyside requirement for M2 and the shiboken6 module details for M3.

Now the comprehensive plan.md.

I need to update the build script to reference the correct source directory for shiboken6_generator instead of what it's currently pointing to.
Fable
Let me correct the host-build script to use the verified generator source dir.

I need to update the GEN path in the 10 and 20 scripts since I built shiboken in `build/shiboken-gen` rather than the `build/shiboken-host*` directory they're currently referencing—I'll point them to `build/shiboken-gen/generator/shiboken6` instead.
