Continuity features (Handoff, Universal Control) generate IOPMrootDomain wake assertions via bluetoothd and airplayd that race with AppleThunderboltNHI port teardown during dark wake; disable “Allow Handoff between this Mac and your iCloud devices” in System Settings → General → AirDrop & Handoff and test wake stability for 48 hours. Capture a log show --predicate 'eventMessage contains "DarkWake" or eventMessage contains "Thunderbolt"' --last 24h to correlate Bluetooth LE advertisement bursts with the panic timestamp. If panics cease, re-enable features incrementally while monitoring pmset -g assertions for PreventUserIdleSystemSleep holders from coreaudiod or sharingd.
