Three layers: v86 — src/vmware.js gains the legacy text-clipboard backdoor commands (GETSELLENGTH/GETNEXTPIECE/SETSELLENGTH/SETNEXTPIECE, 6–9). The host stages bytes via the vmware-clipboard-host bus event; the guest pushes via 8/9 and the device emits vmware-clipboard-guest when the buffer fills. Same wire protocol as open-vm-tools' pre-RPC copy/paste. Committed on the windows95-base fork branch; libv86.js rebuilt here. renderer — src/renderer/clipboard.ts polls Electron's clipboard (no change event exists), translates host UTF-8/LF ↔ guest CP-1252/CRLF, and bounces bytes through the two bus events. Echo-suppressed so a value we just wrote does not come back as a change. guest — guest-tools/agent/W95TOOLS.EXE is a 22 KB hidden-window agent that joins the Win32 clipboard-viewer chain (push-on-copy) and polls the backdoor on a 250 ms timer (pull-from-host). Win9x runs ring-3 with the I/O bitmap wide open, so a plain IN EAX,DX from a user process reaches the port — no driver needed. Named for growth: time sync and host-initiated shutdown will live here too. Built with Open Watcom v2 inside Docker (Makefile + Dockerfile alongside the source); subsystem 4.0, no msvcrt, runs on Win95 RTM. Install: copy \\HOST\TOOLS\agent\W95TOOLS.EXE into the guest and drop a shortcut in StartUp. Text only, 64 KB cap.
