The BSD-licensed archive requests `_root`, hard-codes Steam Deck `BAT1`, raises on empty history, and drops the final sample in per-app grouping. The backend records local battery readings in plugin runtime SQLite; it does not need privileged writes for the verified path.
+
+The digest-scoped managed install removes `_root`, discovers a readable supply whose `type` is `Battery` (preferring `BAT1` on Deck), fixes empty and single-sample history, retains pending samples while the panel is open, and flushes them on unload. The original ZIP and license remain pinned in the test fixture. Changed archive bytes still fail the root gate; other root plugins remain blocked.
+
+Under a unique owner token on `/tmp/frame-test.lock`, a **read-only** real Frame probe found SteamVR activity `3` (standby), proximity raw `2.25`, and one Battery-type supply named `max1720x_bat_7-36`. It exposed readable `capacity` (89%), `status` (Charging), `voltage_now`, and `current_now`; `power_now` was absent. The owned lock was released. No wake, input, normal service, power setting, or plugin install was touched.
+
+In network/device-isolated, unprivileged **actual Decky 3.3.0 amd64**, the exact adapted archive was discovered. A private Frame-shaped supply fixture produced history and per-app power through public legacy RPC. The complete native regression runner, including existing negative controls, passed. Local managed install/remove tests and the exact-source/manifest guard passed. CI's native ARM64 and fake Frame e2e jobs remain required before merge.
+
+This supports **partial** compatibility. The official frontend initialized in the earlier opaque Chromium audit with backend calls denied; it has not been tested with these live samples. Actual managed recording on Frame ARM64, long-term history, foreground-app attribution, panel controls, and worn VR remain unverified. Existing copies need update or reinstall.

+Its backend imports `psutil`, but the ZIP contains no wheel. The manifest requests `_root` although the inspected backend uses user-readable interface counters, subprocess ping and DNS, settings, and optional `nmcli` reads. Loading the backend does not start monitoring.
+
+The managed install checks the complete archive digest, manifest and Python source before removing `_root`. It adds the existing pinned BSD psutil 7.2.2 wheel for the native architecture to this plugin's `py_modules`, uses Decky's plugin-scoped settings directory, leaves legacy path migration inactive in the user service, and initializes ping jitter for failed/offline calls. Other root-requesting archives still fail the root gate. The receipt records `network-sentinel-user-psutil`; existing copies need update or reinstall.
+
+Local transaction tests installed and removed the exact archive, checked the native wheel and unmodified license, and rejected an altered archive. In network/device-isolated, unprivileged **actual Decky 3.3.0 amd64**, the managed plugin was discovered, imported native psutil, returned default and updated settings, reported empty history and bandwidth, started its monitoring loop, produced a history sample with quality and bandwidth fields, then stopped. The full native regression runner also passed its other cases, including FileServer and negative controls. The first run's existing large FileServer install timed out at 15 seconds under host load; its bounded timeout is now 30 seconds and the complete rerun passed. No external network call succeeded in the isolated container. Native ARM64 and fake Frame install/remove are CI gates for this change; neither is claimed by this local evidence.

+The preexisting local Chromium audit initialized the exact frontend with backend calls denied. It did not prove a functioning panel. External latency/DNS, Wi-Fi scans, actual Frame ARM64 runtime, frontend controls, and worn VR remain unverified. This is a **partial** compatibility result, not a full monitoring or headset-usability claim. No real Frame, normal service, power value, or physical network setting was touched in this check.

+The Python backend exposes settings reads and writes. The frontend contains a
+`SteamClient.System.ShutdownPC()` call and Steam suspend callbacks. Its existing
+opaque Chromium audit fails during initialization with `Cannot read properties
+of null (reading '6')`. Static presence of those actions does not prove that
+opening the panel would call them, but a settings-only initialization check
+would not establish safe threshold or suspend behavior on Frame. The plugin

+The published README directs users to a Steam game context-menu item to choose
+a trainer and save launch options. The frontend references
+`SteamClient.Apps.SetAppLaunchOptions`; the Python backend provides settings
+RPCs. The existing opaque Chromium audit fails with `Cannot convert undefined
+or null to object`. The isolated Framey panel has no Steam game context-menu
+target, so repairing that initializer alone would not verify the advertised
+trainer workflow. The plugin remains **broken**; no launch-option write, game,
+trainer, real headset, or worn-VR action was exercised.
+
+These observations only refine the reasons for the two existing catalog rows.
+The exact-version totals stay **6 works / 52 partial / 47 broken / 11 N/A**.

+# Installer dependency fetch retry, 28 October 2026
+
+The desktop installer build fetches pinned Python, platform-tools, CA and KDE
+Connect packages through `app/build/fetch-deps.js`. Before this change, one
+temporary connection drop or HTTP 503 ended the build. The iOS bundle's
+separate Python fetch hit a real remote disconnect in main CI run
+[40698195628](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40698195628);
+that path was repaired separately in PR #372.
+
+The desktop fetch now retries transient transport errors and HTTP 408, 429 or
+5xx responses at most twice, with one- and two-second waits. HTTP 4xx errors
+other than 408/429 fail immediately. The existing pinned SHA-256 comparison
+still happens after download and before writing package bytes, so altered
+content fails without retry or installation.
+
+Local Node 24 checks passed: retry recovery, exhausted retries, permanent HTTP
+error, HTTP 503 and a response aborted after partial bytes; all six app test
+files, script syntax and
+`git diff --check`. Hosted exact-head CI and installer preview remain required
+before merge/release. No installer was published, and this test makes no
+claim about a physical Mac or Windows install.

 After the VR job released the shared lock, this audit acquired it and used a private temporary Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 user service. Read-only ProtonDB `get_setting` and Steam Status `get_settings` calls succeeded through the live Steam CEF websocket. The service and private base were removed and the lock released; normal managed services stayed inactive, battery was 100 → 99, and no power setting was changed. [Redacted results](evidence/framey-official-backend-2026-10-25.json) record exactly what ran. A [2026-10-26 follow-up](evidence/framey-events-backend-2026-10-26.json) verified default Notebook drawing/save/reopen across a real backend restart and Simple Timer start/cancel, countdown/completion events, a visible toast and persisted recents/subtle mode. Only private test settings were written. That initial pass left Simple Timer partial because its own expired-timer startup raises a missing `timer_task` error; sound/suspend are unsupported. A [local audio follow-up](evidence/framey-audio-backends-2026-10-26.md) exercised Volume Mixer, Volume Boost and Mixer through real Decky 3.3.0 amd64 backends on private silent virtual audio targets. Sliders, numeric volume entry, independent server readbacks and Mixer filter persistence across a runtime restart passed. An [ARM64 audio follow-up](evidence/framey-audio-arm64-2026-10-26.md) verified the unmodified official backends in actual Decky 3.3.0 on the Frame user audio session. Volume Mixer and Mixer now qualify as works for per-app volume: Chromium controls changed only a named silent stream, with independent Pulse readbacks. That run left Volume Boost partial because sink writes were denied. A [Volume Boost follow-up](evidence/framey-volume-boost-arm64-2026-10-26.md) now verifies linked/separate channel controls, re-link and reopen through the actual ARM64 backend. Independent Pulse reads confirmed 125%/150% gain writes while the default sink stayed muted; exact original volume/mute was restored. Volume Boost qualifies as works for sink controls. Audible output, Bluetooth playback and worn VR remain unverified. A [running-context follow-up](evidence/framey-running-context-2026-10-26.md) supplies detached running-app/main-app reads and relays actual Steam lifetime callbacks while a panel is open. Real Frame checks verified an empty list, registration/cleanup and the exact Discord Status ARM64 backend reporting no IPC connection. Nonempty games and transitions were synthetic fixtures; real game events, Discord activity and worn VR remain unverified. Discord Status moves to partial; no new works claim is made. A [library context follow-up](evidence/framey-library-context-2026-10-26.md) read 1,106 app overviews, 895 game IDs and the current public Steam ID from real Frame CEF under the shared lock. Local Chromium replayed this detached snapshot to render Deck Settings game selection, Steamback's empty save panel and PlayTime statistics/settings. Steamback and PlayTime used actual Decky 3.3.0 amd64 backends in an isolated container; their ARM64 backends and automatic game hooks remain unverified. Shotty's frontend now starts, but its published backend fails on missing `click`; it stays broken. A [chunked frontend follow-up](evidence/framey-deck-shelves-browser-2026-10-26.md) loaded Deck Shelves 2.0.0 through a managed JavaScript module route and rendered its settings in an opaque local Chromium panel. Its backend was denied; Steam Home shelves and worn VR remain unverified. A [local module lookup follow-up](evidence/framey-module-lookup-2026-10-26.md) supplies a finite registry of Framey-local controls and CSS. TabMaster QAM/docs now render; Steam library-tab editing remains unavailable. That pass exposed Junk-Store executable-script extraction failures; the follow-up below repairs them. SteamGridDB still requires Steam context-menu internals and DeckSP still fails its published MobX fallback. That pass tested TabMaster/Junk-Store in actual isolated amd64 Decky, without ARM64 or worn-VR coverage. A [script entrypoint follow-up](evidence/framey-script-entrypoints-2026-10-26.md) grants owner execute to shebang scripts and ZIP-declared executables without copying archive privilege/write bits. Junk-Store now passes static menu/backend calls in actual Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 and local Chromium Games/Epic navigation, back and reopen. It moves to partial: About still crashes on missing installed-app metadata, Legendary is absent, and login/game operations remain unverified. Existing installations require update/reinstall to repair permissions. A [read-only installed-metadata follow-up](evidence/framey-installed-context-2026-10-26.md) now repairs the About crash. The library snapshot copies only Steam-supplied installed booleans into detached metadata, preserving unknown values as undefined. Junk-Store About/Dependencies, Back and reopen render in local Chromium with actual Frame library data and the official ARM64 backend. It remains partial: dependency/login/game operations, RSSLine truncated

 DeckyFileServer also runs through actual Decky 3.3.0 discovery/API1 RPC with a
 native helper replacement. HTTPS listing/download use only public markers in a
 private directory; uploads remain disabled. The exact source build, GPL licenses
