The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit removes several internal 'debug' flags from normal production builds of the Trezor firmware and keeps them only in builds that have the optional 'ui_debug' feature enabled. These flags are used by automated tests (debuglink) to navigate menus and identify cancel buttons; they do not directly control security checks. The change reduces the chance that test-only state could accidentally affect or leak information in production firmware, but it is a cleanup rather than a fix for an active vulnerability.

Recommended action

Treat as a defensive hardening/cleanup commit. No urgent action is required, but verify that production release builds do not enable the ui_debug feature and that automated tests still compile and pass with ui_debug enabled.

Security signals we found

01

Reduction of debug/test-only state in production binaries

02

Conditional compilation used to limit debuglink metadata to debug builds

03

No functional security logic changed; no input validation, cryptography, or access control modified
