Reply To: Diagnostic query: Unexpected kernel panic on macOS Sequoia 15.1 after waking (1794673912)

The IOPlatformPluginFamily backtrace indicates an X86PlatformPlugin or AppleACPIPlatform mismatch handling _PTS/_WAK ACPI methods when the Thunderbolt NHI re-enumerates; extract the DSDT with sudo ioreg -l -p IODeviceTree | grep -A20 "DSDT" and check for Method (_PTS) referencing NHI0 or XHC1 without proper SleepType guards. A clean test: boot with nv_disable=1 (if dGPU present) and tbtdisable=1 to isolate whether the panic persists without Thunderbolt enumeration—this eliminates Watch/iPad continuity handoff as variables. Battery health is irrelevant here; the panic occurs in kernel space before powerd evaluates BatteryHealth keys.
