Kam b9fb456971 docs(forms): close the unterminated code fences in the compatForm docs
Two of the three `compatForm` overloads open a fenced code block in their
`@example` and never close it. The fence then runs to the end of the tag, so the
API renderer emits a plain `<pre><code>` block for those two instead of a
highlighted one.

The result is that on the compatForm API page the first overload's example is
syntax highlighted while the other two, which contain identical code, render as
flat unstyled text.

Rebuilding //adev/src/assets:content with and without this change alters 1 of
1565 pages. That page goes from 6 highlighted and 2 plain code blocks to 8
highlighted and none plain.

Doug Parker 8ca879e2d8 refactor(forms): expose consequentialHint annotation
Unlike `readOnlyHint` and `untrustedContentHint`, Angular cannot infer any reasonable default value for `consequentialHint` and simply exposes it to users to specify as appropriate.

Doug Parker 6e299da8cf feat(forms): hard-code readOnlyHint and untrustedContentHint for WebMCP implicit signal forms
Signal forms can safely assume `{readOnlyHint: false, untrustedContentHint: false}` given their context. A form _must_ alter page DOM (or else how would a user interact with it) and is therefore definitionally side-effectful. We also assume returned content is trusted, given it is currently hard-coded or derived from application errors.

In the future, we might want to consider cases where application errors are explicitly untrusted or where application developers choose to customize the response text with something which might be untrusted. For now, that's out of scope and we'll worry about it when a compelling use case arises.

Kristiyan Kostadinov 38861ac41b fix(forms): avoid writing to name input on ControlValueAccessor

Alex Rickabaugh 1e35de536d fix(forms): use dot-access for readonly rule configuration
The readonly rule previously used 'when' in configOrLogic to determine if a configuration object was provided. Under property renaming/minification, the string literal property lookup fails and causes the rule to fall back to being permanently readonly.

This change switches to the dot-access form (configOrLogic?.when), matching hidden() and ensuring property renaming works correctly.

Nikita Barsukov 182c371d82 docs: use transformedValue in Forms | Custom Controls | Value transformation section
The "Value transformation" section taught readers to hand-roll
transformation with `linkedSignal()` and a manual parse method, even
though `@angular/forms/signals` ships `transformedValue()` for exactly
this case. Readers ended up with a weaker version of a feature the
framework already provides — notably, no parse error reporting.

Rewrite the section around `transformedValue()` and document the parts
the manual pattern could not cover: returning `{error}` from `parse` to
surface parse errors on the field's `errors()`, and `reset()` clearing
them. This also makes good on the cross-reference from the validation
guide, which pointed here for parse error details the section never
covered.

Fixes #70206

arturovt 38d093232c fix(forms): warn in dev mode when ngModel cannot reach parent NgForm across component boundary
NgModel injects ControlContainer with @Host(), which stops the injector at
the component host element boundary. When NgForm lives in a parent component
and ngModel lives in a child component, the injection returns null silently
and the control acts standalone — never registering with the form.

To surface this invisible failure, emit a dev-mode warning (NG01354) when
ngModel's @Host() injection finds nothing but the element Injector can still
reach a ControlContainer further up the hierarchy. The warning identifies the
cross-boundary issue and points developers to the viewProviders fix or the
standalone option.

Adds the NG01354 reference page explaining why the warning fires and providing
two remediation paths: bridging ControlContainer via viewProviders, or opting
out with [ngModelOptions]="{standalone: true}".

Matthieu Riegler 3497c9b943 fix(forms): ensure pending status propagates to the root form in signal forms
Previously, the `pending()` status on a field's `ValidationState` only checked if the field itself or its immediate children had a pending asynchronous validator by directly inspecting `asyncErrors()`. This meant that a pending asynchronous validator deep within a nested form (e.g. on a grand-child) would not correctly bubble the `pending` state up to the root form.

Bhuvansh855 2e0cb52dbf fix(forms): prevent stale CVA writeback during debounce
Use controlValue() instead of value() when synchronizing
ControlValueAccessor instances.

When debounce is active, value() can still contain the
previous model value while controlValue() reflects the
latest user-entered value. This prevents stale values
from being written back to the CVA before the debounce
is flushed.

Adds a regression test covering the debounce scenario.

Matthieu Riegler 5cb8c733a3 fix(forms): allow multiple async validators
When a parent form element defines an async validator, its resource's `params` function needs to evaluate `syncValid()`, which causes unvisited child form nodes to be lazily instantiated. If any of these lazily instantiated child nodes also define an async validator, their resource is initialized while the parent's `params` function is still evaluating. This incorrectly triggers Angular core's `NG0992` guard (`Cannot create a resource inside the params of another resource`).
This commit exports `ɵsetInParamsFunction` and `ɵisInParamsFunction` from `@angular/core` and uses them in `FieldMetadataState.runMetadataCreateLifecycle` to explicitly detach the lazy creation of form metadata from the parent's reactive `params` context.

arturovt 73ab88e65b refactor(forms): avoid unnecessary Set allocation in maybeRemoveStaleArrayFields
Three small, behavior-neutral cleanups to maybeRemoveStaleArrayFields:

1. Avoid allocating an empty Set when prevData.byTrackingKey is
   undefined. new Set(undefined) previously created an unused empty
   Set on every call for parents with no tracking keys.

2. Guard the per-element tracking-key check on `oldTracking` being
   defined, skipping the isObject/hasOwn check entirely when there's
   nothing to track.

3. Replace childValue.hasOwnProperty(identitySymbol) with
   Object.hasOwn(childValue, identitySymbol). hasOwnProperty throws
   on null-prototype array elements (Object.create(null)), which
   would crash computeChildrenMap. Object.hasOwn is null-prototype-safe
   and preserves "own property" semantics (does not match inherited
   identitySymbol values).

4. Replace `data.byTrackingKey?.delete(id)` with
   `data.byTrackingKey!.delete(id)`. The optional chaining was dead:
   if oldTracking.size > 0, prevData.byTrackingKey (and therefore
   data.byTrackingKey, same Map reference via the spread) is always
   defined. The `?.` masked this invariant; `!` documents it and
   would surface a runtime error instead of a silent no-op if the
   invariant is ever violated.

Verified via performance.mark/measure instrumented directly inside
the function (count=1 call for a single-field edit in both cases).
Total duration dropped from ~0.7ms to ~0.1ms, consistent with the
avoided Set allocation in (1) and (2).

Kam 12fcec8ce9 docs(forms): clarify debounce('blur') usage with custom FormValueControl
A custom FormValueControl only participates in debounce('blur') if it emits
the touch output on the native blur event. This was undocumented, and the
touch name reads like a focus event, so users wired it to (focus) and
blur-based debouncing silently did nothing.

Add a dedicated guide section with a working example, link the debounce API
reference to it, and clarify the touch JSDoc that it must fire on blur, not
focus.

Kam 8b1726a1cf docs(forms): update package docs for Signal Forms graduation
After #68581 graduated the Signal Forms APIs to public API and #68654 removed
the experimental warnings from the Signal Forms documentation in adev, the
package READMEs still framed the API as experimental.

Update `packages/forms/signals/PACKAGE.md`: drop the experimental title and
intro, remove the now-shipped entries from "Not yet supported" (interop with
reactive/template forms and strongly-typed binding to UI controls), and remove
the remaining experimental and exploratory wording from the FAQ.

Update `packages/forms/PACKAGE.md`: it listed only two ways to build forms
(reactive and template-driven). Add signal forms as the third.

arturovt 6cc54e5ede fix(forms): remove animationstart listener on component destroy to prevent memory leak
The `watchValidity` method in `AnimationInputValidityMonitor` was registering
an anonymous arrow function via `addEventListener` with no corresponding
`removeEventListener` call.

In V8, each closure is represented as a `JSFunction` holding a strong pointer
to a heap-allocated `Context` object containing captured variables
(`VariableLocation::CONTEXT` slots, decided at parse time by
`Scope::MustAllocateInContext`). In Blink, DOM event listeners are stored in
the element's `EventTargetData::event_listener_map` as `JSEventListener`
wrappers backed by a `v8::Persistent<JSFunction>` handle — a strong cross-heap
reference that keeps the function alive as long as the element is alive.

Because the callback passed to `watchValidity` closes over the calling
component/directive (which itself holds a reference back to the element), this
produced a cross-heap reference cycle:

```
  HTMLInputElement (Blink/Oilpan)
    └── EventTargetData → JSEventListener → v8::Persistent<JSFunction>
          └── Context → callback closure
                └── component → HTMLInputElement  ← cycle
```

Neither V8's nor Blink's GC could independently break this cycle because it
crosses the V8/Oilpan heap boundary. The element was therefore never collected
after being removed from the DOM.

The fix stores the listener in a named local variable and registers its removal
via `DestroyRef.onDestroy`, tying cleanup to the lifetime of the component that
owns the element. This ensures `removeEventListener` is called with the exact
same `JSFunction` reference, causing Blink to drop the `v8::Persistent` handle
and allowing both the function and the element to become GC-eligible.
