+- Fixed headset smoke cleanup reporting success while a smoke-title process
+  could remain running after its files were removed. Cleanup now stops and
+  rechecks processes tied to exact reserved test-title paths, uses PID handles
+  for safe TERM/KILL escalation, and records stopped PIDs. Unrelated titles and
+  shared Wine services are left alone. Verified with local Linux process
+  regressions and a 13/13 real Frame smoke run that stopped five test-owned
+  Proton process PIDs before removing the Windows test title.

+# Backup and recovery
+
+**Tools → Backup & recovery** copies what a factory reset would lose from the
+Steam Frame to your computer, puts it back afterwards, and gets the headset out
+of Desktop Mode. It runs from Frame Control on a computer, not from the iPhone
+app or the Frame itself.
+
+**Partly tested on a headset.** On a Frame running SteamOS 0.5.6 (build
+20261015.6141207), a full backup saved 26 parts (40.7 MB): 14 games' Proton
+saves, Linux game saves, Steam and desktop settings and 9 Android apps' data,
+with no sign-in files or keys in the archives. Restoring one game's saves on top
+of identical files wrote nothing and left nothing behind. The session check
+reported Game Mode, so **Return to Game Mode** changed nothing. Not tested on a
+headset: a restore after a real factory reset, a restore that replaces files,
+Android data restore, and the switch out of a real Desktop Mode session. Unit
+tests and the fake Frame cover those (see [Verification](#verification)).
+
+## Back up
+
+Choose **Game saves**, **Steam and desktop settings** and **Android app data**
+(all three by default), then **Back up now**. **See what's included** lists each
+part and its size first. Backing up only reads the headset.
+
+Each backup is a folder named after the time it started:
+
+```
+~/Documents/Frame Control Backups/2026-10-23-142530/
+  manifest.json
+  saves/saves-1234.tar.gz          one per game
+  saves/saves-linux.tar.gz
+  settings/settings-steam.tar.gz
+  settings/settings-system.tar.gz
+  android/org.example.game.tar.gz  one per Android app
+```
+
+`manifest.json` records the headset's name, SteamOS version and BUILD_ID, every
+file with its size and SHA-256, and each archive's SHA-256. It also lists what
+was skipped and why. A backup is written under a hidden `.…partial` name and
+renamed when complete, so a cut-off backup never shows up as one.
+
+### What's saved
+
+| Part | From the headset (`~` is `/home/steamos`) | Restored? |
+|---|---|---|
+| Windows game saves | `~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/<appid>/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/` → `AppData/Roaming`, `AppData/Local`, `AppData/LocalLow`, `Documents`, `Saved Games`. Wine's own folders in them (`Temp`, `Microsoft`, `D3DSCache`, `CrashDumps`) are left out. Sideloaded Windows games (non-Steam shortcuts) have prefixes here too | Yes |
+| Linux game saves | `~/.config/unity3d`, `~/.local/share/godot/app_userdata`: where Unity and Godot games save by default | Yes |
+| Steam controller layouts | `userdata/<account>/241100/remote/controller_config`, `steamapps/common/Steam Controller Configs/<account>/config` | Yes |
+| Steam library settings | `userdata/<account>/config/localconfig.vdf`, `shortcuts.vdf`, `grid/` (custom artwork) | Kept for reference |
+| Desktop settings | `~/.config/kdeglobals`, `kwinrc`, `kxkbrc` (keyboard layout), `konsolerc`, `dolphinrc` | Yes |
+| SteamVR settings | `~/.config/openvr/config/steamvr.vrsettings` | Kept for reference |
+| Android app data | Each Frame Control Android app's private data, through the existing `backup-data` helper ([sidequest.md](sidequest.md#private-app-data-backups)) | Yes |
+
+"Kept for reference" files are in the backup but not put back automatically:
+Steam and SteamVR rewrite them while they run, and an old `shortcuts.vdf` would
+point at apps that aren't installed after a reset. Open the backup folder to
+copy one by hand if you need it.
+
+### What's never copied
+
+- **Steam sign-in:** `steam.token`, `config/config.vdf`, `loginusers.vdf`,
+  `registry.vdf` and `ssfn*` files.
+- **Keys and passwords:** `~/.ssh`, `~/.gnupg`, keyrings and KWallet, any
+  `*.token`, `*.key` or `*.pem` file, Tailscale state and proxy settings
+  (`secrets.env`). These are refused by name wherever they turn up, including
+  inside a game's folder, and a restore refuses them too.
+- Games, Proton and the Steam runtimes: reinstall them from Steam.
+- Steam Cloud's own folders (`userdata/<account>/<appid>`), shader caches and
+  screenshots (**Tools → Capture & Live** saves those to Pictures).
+- Android apps themselves, their OBB files and shared storage (`/sdcard`).
+- Symbolic links (never followed), and single files over 2 GiB.
+
+Backups aren't encrypted. Game folders can still hold a launcher's login, and
+Android app data can hold an app's, so keep backups private.
+
+Android apps that are open are skipped (the helper needs the app closed); close
+them and back up again.
+
+## Restore after a factory reset
+
+1. Set up the headset again: Developer Mode, **Set Up Connection**, sign in to
+   Steam with the same account.
+2. Reinstall your games, and **start each once** so Proton creates its folders.
+3. Reinstall your Android apps from Frame Control.
+4. **Tools → Backup & recovery → Restore…** on a backup. Frame Control checks
+   each part against the headset and says what it would do: how many files it
+   replaces and how many are new.
+5. Tick the parts to restore and **Restore selected**. It asks before replacing
+   anything.
+
+Parts that can't go back yet are skipped, not failed, with the reason:
+
+| Reason | What to do |
+|---|---|
+| Install the game first | Install it from Steam, then restore |
+| Start the game once | Proton hasn't made its folders yet; start the game, quit, restore |
+| Sign in to Steam first | Controller layouts go under your account's folder |
+| Install the app first / close the app first | Android app data needs the app installed and closed |
+| The backup file doesn't match its checksum | The archive changed since it was made |
+
+A restore writes only the files in the parts you chose, and only inside that
+part's folders: it never deletes a file, and a save archive can't write outside
+its game. Before replacing a file it copies the current one to
+`~/.local/share/frame-control/restore-previous/<time>/` on the headset. Files
+already identical are left alone. Android app data goes through the existing
+`restore-data` helper, which keeps the previous data folder beside it.
+
+## Stuck in Desktop Mode
+
+On the Frame, Game Mode is gamescope running Steam, and the Linux desktop
+normally runs *inside* it as one panel (`steamos-nested-desktop`, see
+[how-the-frame-works.md](how-the-frame-works.md#the-layer-cake)). If that panel
+is what you see, you're already in Game Mode: close it from the Steam dashboard.
+
+Full Desktop Mode is a different session. SteamOS picks the session through
+SDDM's autologin file, `/etc/sddm.conf.d/zz-steamos-autologin.conf` (or the
+default `/etc/sddm.conf.d/steamos.conf`), and switches with
+`steamos-session-select` (`holo-session-select` on newer images). This is what
+Valve's own devkit tools on the Frame read and run
+([`steamos-get-status`](../frame/devkit-utils/steamos-get-status),
+[`steamos-delete`](../frame/devkit-utils/steamos-delete)).
+
+**Check** reads that file and whether gamescope and Plasma are running; it
+changes nothing. On the Frame gamescope's process is `gamescope-wl`, started by
+`start-gamescope-session`, and either counts as Game Mode. Only when Plasma is
+running without gamescope (Desktop Mode) does **Return to Game Mode** run
+exactly `steamos-session-select gamescope` (or `holo-session-select
+gamescope`) over SSH, after asking. It closes the desktop and anything open in
+it. Frame Control never edits the SDDM files itself, and runs nothing when the
+headset is in Game Mode, when it can't tell which mode it's in, or when the
+image has neither command.
+
+**Uncertain:** whether the Frame offers a full Desktop Mode session at all
+(only the nested desktop has been seen on BUILD_ID 20260922.6101926 and
+20260925.6191901), and whether `steamos-session-select` there works without
+the Developer Mode password. If the switch is refused, Frame Control says so and
+leaves the headset as it was.
+
+### Manual fallback
+
+If the button can't help, or the headset isn't reachable:
+
+1. **Restart it:** hold Power about 10 seconds until the light goes off, then
+   power on. On the Steam Deck, **Switch to Desktop** starts a one-shot
+   Desktop Mode session, so a restart brings Game Mode back. That the Frame
+   behaves the same is **inferred**, not tested.
+2. **Over SSH** (Developer Mode on), run Valve's switch yourself:
+   `ssh frame steamos-session-select gamescope`.
+3. **Boot menu:** hold Power 10 seconds, then power on while holding the AUX
+   button on top of Power. Choose `Current`, or `Previous` to start the other
+   SteamOS slot; both keep your data. Details and the further options
+   (`Repair Steam Installation`, `Erase User Data`, a full re-image) are in
+   [how-the-frame-works.md](how-the-frame-works.md#facts-worth-knowing) and
+   [recovery-and-images.md](recovery-and-images.md). Back up first if you can:
+   `Erase User Data` is a factory reset.
+
+## Verification
+
+`tests/test_backup.py` runs the headset-side script (`ui/frame_backup_remote.py`)
+for real against a folder laid out like the Frame's home, with only SSH faked:
+which paths are picked, that sign-in files and keys never are (also inside game
+folders), links never followed, the manifest and its checksums, restore checks
+after a reset (game not installed, no Proton folders yet, not signed in), that a
+restore replaces only its own files and keeps the old ones, unsafe archives
+(`..`, absolute paths, links, other games' folders) writing nothing, backup
+names that try to leave the backups folder, and the exact Game Mode command.
+`tests/e2e/test_recovery_kit.py` backs up a Proton save from the fake Frame through
+the server, deletes it and restores it. Neither involves a real headset.

+# Battery charge limit (80%): research
+
+**Question:** can Frame Control set an 80% battery charge limit on the Frame
+over SSH or adb, safely?
+
+**Verdict: don't build it.** Valve's supported mechanism (the one Steam's own
+charge-limit setting uses on the Deck) is not configured for the Frame. The
+only control the Frame has is a vendor charger attribute that Valve's own
+charging daemon also manages. Research as of 2026-10-23, confirmed with the
+read-only checks below on a Frame running SteamOS 0.5.6 (build 20261015.6141207):
+
+- `steamosctl get-max-charge-level` fails with `UnknownInterface: ...BatteryChargeLimit1`.
+- `/usr/share/steamos-manager/devices/` has `[battery_charge_limit]` only for
+  the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, ROG Xbox Ally and MSI Claw, not the Frame.
+- Power supplies: `max1720x_bat_7-36` (Battery, driver `max1720x`),
+  `pm8550b-charger` (driver `qcom,pm8550b-charger`) and the USB-C `tcpm-source-psy-…`.
+  No `charge_control_end_threshold` anywhere; `pm8550b-charger` has
+  `charging_enable` and `charging_pause`, both `root`-only (`-rw-r--r--`).
+- `deckard-charger.service` (Deckard Battery Charger service) is enabled and running.
+
+## How Steam does it on other devices
+
+- Steam's **Settings → Power → Battery Charge Limit** shipped to the Deck in
+  SteamOS 3.7.8 (beta client 2025-05-08)
+  ([GamingOnLinux](https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2025/05/steamos-3-7-7-beta-brings-a-battery-charge-limit-option-and-improved-lenovo-legion-go-s-support/)).
+- Steam calls SteamOS Manager on the session bus:
+  `com.steampowered.SteamOSManager1.BatteryChargeLimit1`, with properties
+  `MaxChargeLevel` (`i`, read/write; `-1` resets to the default) and
+  `SuggestedMinimumLimit` (`i`, read-only). The CLI is
+  `steamosctl get-max-charge-level` / `set-max-charge-level` /
+  `suggested-minimum-charge-limit`. Source: `data/interfaces/com.steampowered.SteamOSManager1.xml`
+  and `steamos-manager/src/bin/steamosctl.rs` in
+  [holo/steamos-manager](https://gitlab.steamos.cloud/holo/steamos-manager),
+  read at commit `83981ab` (2026-10-21).
+- The root daemon writes the value to sysfs only if the device's TOML in
+  `data/devices/` has a `[battery_charge_limit]` section. Two methods exist
+  (`steamos-manager/src/power.rs`, `BatteryChargeLimitMethod`):
+  - `hwmon_attribute`: the Deck writes `max_battery_charge_level` on
+    `steamdeck_hwmon` (`data/devices/steam-deck.toml`).
+  - `acpi_sb`: ROG Ally, MSI Claw and others write the standard
+    `charge_control_end_threshold` on the ACPI battery
+    (`/sys/bus/{platform,acpi}/drivers/…battery…/PNP0C0A:00/…/power_supply/*/`).
+    On ARM there's no ACPI, so this path can't match there either.
+- With no `[battery_charge_limit]` section, the interface fails with
+  `UnknownInterface` (Steam can still show its toggle on unsupported hardware:
+  [steam-for-linux#12044](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/12044)).
+
+## What the Frame has
+
+- **Upstream `data/devices/steam-frame.toml`** (matched by
+  `dt.compatible = "qcom,sm8650"`, variant `Deckard`) configures GPU clocks
+  and performance profiles only. It has **no `[battery_charge_limit]`**, so
+  SteamOS Manager on the Frame has no charge-limit backend. Its git history
+  (2026-09-10 to 2026-10-12) never added one.
+- **Battery driver:** the Frame's battery is
+  `/sys/class/power_supply/max1720x_bat_7-36`, and the charger is a
+  `tcpm-source-psy-…` USB-PD supply ([how-the-frame-works.md](how-the-frame-works.md)).
+  Both were verified 2026-09-25, and `ui/frame_status.py` `battery()` and
+  `power_source()` read them. The Maxim MAX1720x is a **fuel gauge** and
+  can't control charging. Mainline `drivers/power/supply/max1720x_battery.c`
+  exposes only read-only properties (capacity, voltage, current, temp,
+  charge_full…), with no `charge_control_end_threshold`. Valve's build is
+  patched: it reports `time_to_full_now`, which mainline doesn't have. Even
+  so, a charge stop would have to come from the separate charger IC, not this
+  node.
+- **Not the qcom_battmgr path.** Some other SM8650/SM8750 handhelds get
+  `charge_control_end_threshold` from Qualcomm's `qcom_battmgr`
+  (pmic_glink) driver, clamped at 55% or above. A third-party distro enabled
+  Steam's limit on those by patching steamos-manager
+  ([armada-os/armada#758](https://github.com/armada-os/armada/pull/758)). The
+  Frame's battery isn't exposed by `qcom_battmgr`, so that doesn't carry over.
+  (Unverified: whether a `qcom_battmgr` node also exists on the Frame. The
+  read-only checks below answer this.)
+- **What third parties found:**
+  [y0usaf/frame-charge](https://github.com/y0usaf/frame-charge) reports that
+  the Frame has no `charge_control_end_threshold` and falls back to a vendor
+  `charging_pause` attribute. It also reports that `constant_charge_current`
+  changes on its own, which it attributes to Valve's `deckard_charge_daemon`
+  (`deckard-charger.service`). By its own README, that tool has only run its
+  read-only `status` on a Frame and has **not** been tested against real
+  charging. Two questions are still open: whether pausing stops the current,
+  and whether Valve's daemon undoes it.
+
+## Why not build it now
+
+- **No supported endpoint.** The only Valve-supported interface,
+  `BatteryChargeLimit1`, isn't backed on the Frame. Writing sysfs ourselves
+  would bypass Steam and SteamOS Manager, and it needs root (`sudo -S` with
+  the user's password).
+- **A rival owner.** Valve's charge daemon already adjusts charging
+  parameters. Toggling `charging_pause` underneath it could be undone without
+  warning, fight it in a loop, or leave charging paused.
+- **Stuck at a low charge.** If the app or the Frame dies while charging is
+  paused, the Frame could sit at a low charge on the charger. Whether a
+  reboot clears `charging_pause` is unknown.
+- **The UI would mislead.** Steam's setting (if it shows at all) wouldn't
+  reflect our limit.
+- **adb doesn't help.** Wi-Fi adb (`frame:5555`) reaches the Lepton Android
+  container only. USB-C adb reaches the Linux side as `steamos` (non-root, the
+  same as SSH, [ssh.md](ssh.md)). Neither adds a charging-control route.
+  Android's `dumpsys battery` in Lepton is a container view, not the hardware.
+
+**Revisit when** a SteamOS update adds `[battery_charge_limit]` to
+`steam-frame.toml` (or `steamosctl get-max-charge-level` stops returning
+`UnknownInterface` on the Frame). Then the feature is just a SteamOS Manager
+call:
+
+- Read: `steamosctl get-max-charge-level`
+- Set: `steamosctl set-max-charge-level 80`
+- Undo: `steamosctl set-max-charge-level -- -1`
+
+That runs as `steamos` with no sudo. It's the same value Steam's own
+Settings → Power shows, so both stay in sync.
+
+## Headset checks (read-only first)
+
+Run these over SSH as `steamos`. Steps 1–4 only read.
+
+```sh
+# 1. Does SteamOS Manager offer the interface on this build?
+steamosctl get-max-charge-level; steamosctl suggested-minimum-charge-limit
+busctl --user introspect com.steampowered.SteamOSManager1 \
+  /com/steampowered/SteamOSManager1 | grep -i -A3 ChargeLimit
+grep -n battery_charge_limit /usr/share/steamos-manager/devices/*frame* 2>/dev/null
+
+# 2. Which power supplies exist, and which drivers back them?
+for d in /sys/class/power_supply/*; do
+  echo "== $d ($(cat $d/type)) driver=$(basename "$(readlink -f $d/device/driver)" 2>/dev/null)"
+  ls $d
+done
+
+# 3. Any charge-control attributes, with their values and permissions?
+ls -l /sys/class/power_supply/*/{charge_control_*,charging_pause,charging_enable,constant_charge_current*,charge_behaviour} 2>/dev/null
+grep -H . /sys/class/power_supply/*/{charge_control_*,charging_pause,charging_enable,constant_charge_current*,charge_behaviour} 2>/dev/null
+
+# 4. What is Valve's charger daemon, and what does it touch?
+systemctl status deckard-charger.service --no-pager
+systemctl cat deckard-charger.service
+journalctl -b -u deckard-charger.service --no-pager | tail -50
+```
+
+If step 1 succeeds on some build, test `steamosctl set-max-charge-level 80`
+on a charger at a charge above 80%. Watch `current_now` on the
+`max1720x_bat_*` node fall to about 0, then `steamosctl set-max-charge-level -- -1` and
+confirm charging resumes. Do this on a supervised Frame only. If only step 3
+finds a vendor attribute, **stop**: don't write it, and leave the question
+with Valve.

+
+## Turning it on
+
+It's off by default. Until you tick **Turn on PC in the headset** on the card,
+Frame Control starts no helper, loads none of the streaming libraries and lists
+no windows. The choice is remembered on this computer. Turning it off ends
+every stream, closes the viewers in the headset and stops the helper.
+
+The card and its Tools link only appear in the Windows app. On macOS the card
+is Mac in the headset, as before; on Linux and the iPhone app there's no card.
+
+## How it works
+
+The ported pieces are from [PR #38](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/38).
+Frame Control owns the host helper, input, authentication, streaming protocol,
+panel launcher and adaptation. It doesn't need Sunshine, OBS or any other
+streaming app. GStreamer is bundled as ordinary libraries.
+
+| | Windows |
+|---|---|
+| Capture | Windows.Graphics.Capture, through GStreamer's `d3d11screencapturesrc capture-api=wgc`, by window (HWND) or screen (HMONITOR) |
+| Encoding | Media Foundation's H.264 encoder (`mfh264enc`), low latency, no B-frames. Whether it uses the GPU depends on the PC; **not verified** |
+| Input | `SendInput`, mapped through the source's bounds, with per-monitor DPI awareness |
+
+API choices are documented, not device-verified:
+[Windows capture](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/audio-video-camera/screen-capture),
+[GStreamer WGC](https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/d3d11/d3d11screencapturesrc.html),
+[Media Foundation encoder](https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/mediafoundation/mfh264enc.html).
+
+It needs Windows 10 or 11 with Windows.Graphics.Capture and a Media Foundation
+H.264 encoder (Windows "N" editions need the Media Feature Pack). Clicks and
+keys can't reach administrator apps or the sign-in screen, which an ordinary
+process can't drive. If Windows won't bring the chosen window to the front,
+input is refused rather than sent to the app covering it: bring the window
+forward, then Stop and Show again. Minimised or closed windows stop sending
+pictures. Protected video isn't supported. Mac in the headset's "own display
+per window" is Mac-only.
+
+The pieces it shares with Mac in the headset:
+
+- `ui/frame_macview.py` owns the SSH tunnel, reconnects, quality presets and
+  panel launch. `ui/frame_pcview.py` picks the Windows helper
+  (`ui/frame_pc_agent.py`, `ui/frame_pc_capture.py`, `desktop/capture.c`) and
+  holds the on/off switch. `/api/macview` is the endpoint for both.
+- `ui/mac-view.html` is the one viewer in the headset. Its frame header, H.264
+  and JPEG payloads, reconnect handshake, clock sync, timing reports and input
+  messages are unchanged.
+- `desktop/controller.c` is a C port of the Mac helper's Swift rate controller,
+  for the Windows helper. The Mac keeps its Swift original;
+  `tests/test_pc_controller.py` checks the port against a frozen 600-state
+  trace from it. Capture is gated before encoding, so encoded frames are never
+  dropped, and an idle window's last picture still goes out once the link
+  clears.
+- Stream records use the Mac helper's JSON schema (`ui/frame_stream_stats.py`),
+  so the benchmark's analysis is shared.
+
+## Packaging
+
+The Windows installer carries `resources/desktop/bundle`: `pc-host.dll` (our
+adapter and the controller), the GStreamer plugins it uses (`coreelements`,
+`videotestsrc`, `videoconvertscale`, `app`, `jpeg`, `videoparsersbad`,
+`d3d11`, `mediafoundation`) and the DLLs they depend on, all from MSYS2's
+UCRT64 packages. `libraries.json` records the GStreamer version, the plugins,
+each copied DLL and the exact package versions; licence texts are in
+`licenses/`.
+
+The x264 encoder is **not** in the installer. It's GPL, and Windows encodes
+with Media Foundation, so only CI's test builds include it
+(`desktop/build.py --with-x264`). The macOS and Linux installers are unchanged.
+
+From a source checkout on Windows, build the bundle from an MSYS2 UCRT64 shell
+with the packages listed in `.github/workflows/pc-host.yml`:
+
+```sh
+python desktop/build.py              # what the installer ships
+python desktop/build.py --with-x264  # for the native tests
+```
+
+A missing bundle is reported on the card; nothing is downloaded on first use.
+
+The Linux adapter from #38 (desktop portal, PipeWire, VA-API) is in the tree,
+because it shares `capture.c` and the controller, and CI still builds and tests
+it. The app never offers it and the Linux installers don't include it.
+
+## Measuring
+
+The Mac benchmark accepts the PC host:
+
+```sh
+python scripts/macview-bench.py run --pc --scenario test --label pc-test
+python scripts/macview-bench.py run --pc --scenario capture --source window:12345 --label windows-window
+```
+
+`capture` needs a window or screen id from the helper's `/windows` or
+`/displays`. CPU sampling isn't available on PC hosts. See
+[Mac in the headset](mac-in-headset.md) for the targets and shaping options.
+
+## What's verified
+
+- **Verified in CI, this PR:** on `windows-latest`, the native adapter builds
+  and a real x264 synthetic stream passes the ticket, reconnect, timing and
+  input-echo tests through the helper. The Windows installer builds with the
+  bundle, and its bundled Python loads the bundle, starts the helper and
+  confirms x264 isn't in it. Unit tests check the Windows-only, off-by-default
+  gating, the card and the Tools link on macOS, Windows and Linux.
+- **Verified, #38, 2026-09-28, real Frame on SteamOS BUILD_ID 20260925.6191901:**
+  the PC helper (ARM64, on the Frame itself, x264 test pattern) streamed

+  content latency p50/p95 15.1/28.6 ms, synthetic input p50 76.6 ms, at
+  revision `cd20243`. The frame-rate and late-frame targets failed. This
+  proves the helper and the viewer work together; it isn't Windows capture or

+it isn't. SteamVR (app 250820, and its beta 1009850) is never listed or quit:
+on the Frame it shows the headset view, so quitting it isn't a way out of a game.
+
+`ui/frame_running.py` does the work on the Frame, piped over SSH with
+`frame_steam.py` as its DevTools client:
+
+```sh
+scp ui/frame_steam.py ui/frame_running.py frame:/tmp/
+ssh frame 'python3 /tmp/frame_running.py list'       # {"running": [{appid, gameid, name, kind, ...}]}
+ssh frame 'python3 /tmp/frame_running.py quit 620'   # {"name", "method", "message"}
+```
+
+1. **What's running.** Steam starts every game, shortcut and devkit title under
+   its `reaper`, as `reaper SteamLaunch AppId=<id> -- <command>`, and the reaper
+   stays the parent of the game's processes. So a running game is one of your
+   own processes whose program is named `reaper`, with `SteamLaunch` and an
+   `AppId=` before `--`; the game is that reaper's process tree. Steam's own list
+   (`SteamUIStore.RunningApps`) and Android apps whose Lepton container is up
+   (`podman ps`) are added. Names come from `appStore`, else the app manifest,
+   the Android app's `meta.json` or the devkit title's folder.
+2. **Steam first.** `SteamClient.Apps.TerminateApp(<game id>, false)`, the
+   call Steam's own Stop makes for Android apps ([vr-apks.md](vr-apks.md)). The
+   game id is the appid, or `(appid << 32) | 0x02000000` for a non-Steam
+   shortcut. An Android app's container is also stopped, as the Apps tab's Stop
+   does (`podman stop -t 5 lepton-steamlaunch-<instance>`).
+3. **Then signals.** If the game's processes are still there after 5 seconds,
+   they get SIGTERM, deepest first; whatever is left 3 seconds later gets
+   SIGKILL, the reaper last, so nothing it holds is orphaned unsignalled. A pid
+   is only signalled while its start time still matches, so a reused pid is safe.
+
+Nothing is found by name. These are never signalled, even inside a game's tree:
+init, the helper itself and every process above it (the SSH session), other
+users' processes, and anything named `steam`, `steamwebhelper`, `gamescope`,
+`gamescope-wl`, `gamescopereaper`, `gamescope-session`, `sshd`, `sshd-session`,

+`vrwebhelper` or `vrstartup`, with everything under them.
+
+**Not tested on a headset.** The reaper command line is how Steam launches games
+on Linux desktops and the Steam Deck, **inferred** for the Frame.
+`SteamUIStore.RunningApps` comes from Steam's client code as plugin loaders use
+it and hasn't been seen on the Frame's build; without it, the reapers alone
+decide. `TerminateApp` with a shortcut's game id is the call Steam's Stop was
+seen making for an Android app (docs/vr-apks.md); for Steam games it is
+**inferred**. Unit tests (`tests/test_force_quit.py`) cover the parsing, the
+process selection and the escalation; the fake Frame launches its games under a
+stand-in `reaper` so `tests/e2e/test_running.py` force quits a real process tree.

+"""Copy new screenshots and Steam clips from the headset to this computer on their own.
+
+Off until it's turned on in Settings. Then a worker in the server looks about once a
+minute, while a headset is connected and nothing else is running on it, and copies
+what's new with the same code as Save and Export: screenshots to ~/Pictures/SteamFrame,
+saved Steam clips to ~/Videos/SteamFrame.
+
+- Only what's newer than the moment it was turned on, so turning it on doesn't copy
+  the whole back-catalogue; Copy everything now does that, once.
+- What it has copied is remembered per headset (auto-sync.json in the app's data
+  folder), so a file deleted from this computer isn't copied again.
+- A clip Steam is still writing (a chunk changed in the last SETTLE seconds) waits
+  for the next look. Steam's background recording is never copied: it's a rolling
+  buffer, not something anyone chose to keep.
+- When this computer runs out of space it pauses and says so, until Resume.
+- When the headset can't be reached it waits longer each time, up to MAX_BACKOFF.
+
+The server supplies how to reach the headset, so this can be tested without one:
+  list_shots() -> {"shots": [{"id", "time", "saved"}...]}
+  save_shots(device, ids) copies those screenshots here
+  list_clips() -> {"clips": [{"id", "kind", "time", "idle", "saved"}...]}
+  export_clip(device, id) exports one clip here
+  device() -> the connected headset's id, or None
+  busy() -> True while other work runs on the headset (installs, jobs, a recording)
+  offline(error) -> a plain message if the error means the headset couldn't be reached

+file with its size and SHA-256, the archives' checksums and the headset's BUILD_ID. What the
+parts hold, and what is never copied, is decided on the headset by frame_backup_remote.py.
+Backing up only reads the headset. See docs/backup-and-recovery.md.

+"""Backup and restore on the Frame: what to save, packing it and putting it back. Stdlib only.

+
+  plan                 JSON: the headset's build and every part worth saving, with sizes
+  pack PART            a tar.gz of that part's files on stdout (reads only)

+  restore PART STAMP   stdin tar.gz: write that part's restorable files, keeping replaced ones
+  session              JSON: Game Mode or Desktop Mode, and the switch command on this image
+
+Paths are relative to the home folder, with '/' separators, everywhere: in archives, in the
+manifest and in `check`. Nothing here deletes a file. `restore` replaces only files named in
+its archive, and first copies each one it replaces under PREVIOUS/<stamp>/.

+"""Runs ON the Frame (piped over SSH, with frame_steam.py): what game is running,
+and force quit it.
+
+Steam starts every game, non-Steam shortcut and devkit title under its own
+`reaper`, as `reaper SteamLaunch AppId=<id> -- <command>`, and the reaper stays
+the parent of the game's processes. That's how Steam starts games on Linux
+desktops and the Steam Deck; on the Frame it is **inferred, not yet seen**. So a
+running game is a reaper with an AppId, and the game is that reaper's process
+tree. Nothing is matched by name, so Steam, gamescope, SteamVR, sshd or the
+session can't be picked by mistake, and the names in PROTECTED are skipped
+even inside a game's tree.
+
+Quitting asks Steam first (SteamClient.Apps.TerminateApp, what Steam's own Stop
+uses for Android apps, docs/vr-apks.md). If the game's processes are still
+there a few seconds later, they get SIGTERM, then SIGKILL.
+
+Usage: python3 - list          # {"running": [{appid, gameid, name, kind, ...}]}
+       python3 - quit APPID    # {"name", "method": "steam"|"term"|"kill"|"gone", "message"}
+Prints one JSON object. Errors are {"error": "..."} with exit status 1.

Only the Windows installer gets it now; the Linux and macOS installer jobs are as on main. x264 is GPL and Windows encodes with Media Foundation, so the shipped bundle leaves it out. desktop/build.py --with-x264 adds it for the native CI jobs' headless protocol tests, which no longer upload their bundles. The release job tests the packaged app's own bundle with its bundled Python and checks x264 isn't in it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-10-24 00:29:12 +00:00
SAPHIDandClaude Opus 5.5	7a7dca70de	PC in the headset: Windows only, Experimental and off until turned on host_view now picks the PC host on Windows only; Linux and macOS keep the Mac view as on main, so #38's Linux adapter is never offered. The PC host starts nothing, loads no native library and lists no windows until the person ticks "Turn on PC in the headset" on the card (action "enable" on /api/macview). Turning it off ends streams, viewers and the helper. The choice is a client preference, like mvSeparate. Tools lists "PC in the headset" on Windows only, beside the macOS-only Mac link, with an Experimental tag and a short note on what hasn't been tried. The Mac card's wording and Linux-portal tweaks from #38 go back to main's, apart from the shared "your computer" hint.

SAPHIDandClaude Opus 5.5	26206e85b4	Copy new screenshots and Steam clips to the computer automatically Settings → Copy to this computer, off by default, with a switch each for screenshots and Steam clips. While a headset is connected, a worker in the server looks about once a minute and copies what's new with save_shots and frame_clips.export_clip: only what's newer than turning it on, never what it copied before (remembered per headset in auto-sync.json, so deleted files stay deleted), never Steam's background recording or a clip written to in the last 30 s. It waits for other work on the headset, backs off to 15 minutes while the headset is unreachable, and pauses when this computer is out of space. Copy everything now copies the rest once. The Frame-side clip listing now reports each recording's idle time, by the Frame's clock. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-10-23 23:33:37 +00:00

SAPHIDandClaude Opus 5.5	30cbe1c901	Backup and recovery kit: saves, settings and Android data off the Frame and back Tools → Backup & recovery copies game saves (Proton prefixes' AppData, Documents and Saved Games, Unity and Godot saves), Steam controller layouts, desktop settings and Android app data (the existing backup-data helper) to ~/Documents/Frame Control Backups/<time>/ with a manifest of every file's size and SHA-256 and the headset's BUILD_ID. Backing up only reads the headset; sign-in files, keys and keyrings are refused by name wherever they are. Restore checks each part against the headset first and skips, rather than fails, games not installed yet, prefixes Proton hasn't made, a missing Steam account and closed or missing Android apps. It asks before replacing anything, writes only inside each part's folders and keeps every replaced file under ~/.local/share/frame-control/restore-previous/. Return to Game Mode reads the SDDM session config and runs the switch Valve's devkit tools use (steamos-session-select / holo-session-select gamescope), only when the headset isn't already in Game Mode and only after confirmation.

SAPHIDandClaude Opus 5.5	a5980d8f98	Force quit a running game from Games and the Control Center Running now, at the top of Games, lists what's running on the Frame (Steam games, sideloaded titles, non-Steam shortcuts, Android apps), with Force quit on each, on a game's library tile and in a sideloaded title's menu. The Control Center gets a Force quit a game card. Each asks first: unsaved progress will be lost. Nothing running says so. ui/frame_running.py finds games by Steam's `reaper SteamLaunch AppId=<id>` process and its tree, never by name. It asks Steam to quit (SteamClient.Apps.TerminateApp), then sends SIGTERM and SIGKILL to the tree, skipping init, the SSH session, other users and Steam, gamescope, SteamVR, sshd and the session. Android apps also get the Apps tab's container stop. The fake Frame runs games under a stand-in reaper and lists them in SteamUIStore.RunningApps, so tests/e2e/test_running.py force quits real process trees. Not tested on a headset.

SAPHIDandClaude Opus 5.5	810ef1822d	Type on the headset: keyboard and clipboard in one place, and the headset's clipboard back to the PC Home, Tools and the Control Center now call the keyboard "Type on the headset", and T opens it from anywhere. The clipboard moves from Send to Frame to sit beside the keyboard, with a new Copy the headset's clipboard button: the server reads Klipper's getClipboardContents on the headset desktop's bus (base64 back, 1 MB limit, empty and image clipboards say so), and the desktop app, the iPhone app or frame_host.set_clipboard_text puts it on the clipboard here. Clipboard text is never logged. Not tested on a headset. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-10-23 23:04:41 +00:00
SAPHIDandClaude Opus 5.5	3dd8e982a3	Docs: research on an 80% battery charge limit for the Frame Steam's charge limit goes through SteamOS Manager's BatteryChargeLimit1, and upstream steam-frame.toml configures no backend for it. The Frame's battery is a max1720x fuel gauge with no charge_control_end_threshold. Conclusion: don't build it yet; read-only headset checks are listed.

saphidandClaude Opus 5.5	a992f6d896	PC host: review fixes (idle watchdog, controller close race, malformed input, loader path) - The 10 s watchdog no longer ends idle sessions. PipeWire and WGC deliver frames only on damage; fail only when a frame entered the encoder and never came out, or the pipeline never produced its initial frame. - Controller.state/call/update are inert after close(), so a /status poll racing Stop cannot dereference the freed native controller. - Malformed viewer fields drop the event instead of ending the session. - PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH prepends add no empty (current directory) entry. - portal.c: document fd ownership. pipewiresrc dups the fd it is given (gstpipewirecore.c, F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC), so the portal closing its own fd is correct; clear it after close.
