+# Shotty screenshot copy through native Decky RPC, 28 October 2026
+
+The exact official Shotty 0.1.0 archive (store ID 53, SHA-256
+`ab7f6618b264a0cb766525e788cef6c3e1478c0fef98a701225e5e8af441e2fe`)
+was installed with Frame Control's digest-scoped `shotty-click-app-dir` shim.
+The local `scripts/framey-test-decky-runtime.py` run used the published,
+digest-verified Decky 3.3.0 amd64 loader in a disposable unprivileged container
+with no network, host devices or writable host mount. Its full 14-case native
+suite, including three negative controls, exited successfully.
+
+The Shotty case placed two small marker files under a private synthetic Steam
+screenshots directory in the container's temporary home. Calls went through
+Decky's real legacy websocket RPC. `set_id_map_fronend` supplied a private game
+name; `copy_screenshot` returned `true` for the selected file. Independent
+reads of `Pictures/Screenshots/Private Game/selected.jpg` and
+`Pictures/Screenshots/most_recent.jpg` matched the marker bytes. A later
+`aggregate_all` returned `1`, and the historical file in the named folder
+also matched its source bytes. Empty aggregation and `was_rescued=false` still
+passed. The runner removed its owned containers and image; no headset or user
+screenshot was accessed.
+
+This local run checks the real Decky RPC and same-filesystem copy path with
+synthetic files on amd64. The PR's hosted native ARM64 gate must pass before
+merge; this local result alone does not establish ARM64 behavior. Steam's live
+screenshot notification, cross-filesystem copies, the continuous rescuer, real
+Frame installation, wearer-visible VR and physical controller use remain
+unverified. Shotty remains **partial**.

+# Static limits for two official Decky archives, 28 October 2026
+
+The published archives below were downloaded from Decky's version CDN and
+checked against the catalog's exact SHA-256 before inspection. No plugin code,
+backend, plugin-initiated network request or headset operation ran in this
+audit. Their status labels remain unchanged.

+`18e133b2e6203f16fd1ee2ed83b5a90bad34491515bef7ec1c82d525f0bfadef`.
+The backend exposes settings load/save. The published frontend uses
+`fetchNoCors` for deal lookups with an embedded upstream API key and attempts
+to find a Steam store debugger tab through `localhost:8080/json`. The key was
+not decoded or used. The existing real Frame country read and local settings
+render remain the verified scope; live deals, settings writes and Steam page
+integration remain unverified. Status stays **partial**.
+
+## Decky Clipboard 1.0.1

+Store ID 119, SHA-256
+`d283bd9a5c35b3fac3788391736a6763f3e8c4615831a7c560c9fa6e6c0950ac`.
+The manifest requests root and the ZIP bundles an x86-64 `bin/xclip`. In the
+published `main.py`, `auto_start` defaults to true; `WebServer.start` binds
+`0.0.0.0:8765`, and the clipboard GET/POST routes have no authentication
+check. A managed adaptation would need to address that behavior before any
+Frame install. The archive remains **broken** and was not installed or run.
