The test used src.find() which locates the first occurrence of
'Refresh Registry' in the comment block (line 2090 in src/gui_2.py),
not the actual code (line 2111). The 400-char snippet window doesn't
reach the code, so the assertion for 'load_registry' fails.
Production code is already correct (in-place load_registry()) at
src/gui_2.py:2111-2112 (user commit df7bda6e). This test just needs
to use rfind() to locate the actual code, not the comment.
Change: src.find(marker) -> src.rfind(marker)
1 test passes (was 1 pre-existing failure).
ROOT CAUSE: gui_2.py:1675 re-instantiated LogRegistry() which opens the TOML
but never called .load_registry() so the table stayed empty.
FIX: in-place load_registry() on the existing instance — preserves in-memory
state (any pending update_session_metadata call) and matches the user's intent
of 'refresh from disk'.
