 Framey now serves JavaScript files from the managed plugin's `dist` directory using hierarchical module URLs. Its opaque `allow-scripts` iframe still has no Frame UI key. Local Chromium received HTTP 200 for the entry and eight chunks, reported the initializer ready, and rendered the settings panel with “Enable shelves on Home,” “Create default shelves,” “Behavior,” and “Shelves.” The browser audit denied the attempted `get_settings` backend call, Steam library read and plugin network access. No backend method executed.

+I verified the same archive digest before loading its unchanged `Deck-Shelves/main.py` in local Python. A stub `decky` module supplied only a logger; `DECKY_PLUGIN_SETTINGS_DIR` and `DECKY_HOME` pointed inside a temporary directory. No Decky service, headset, Steam API, or network call was involved. Calling `_main`, `get_settings`, and `set_settings` returned the default disabled state, saved one shelf named `Local Test`, and returned that shelf from a fresh `Plugin` instance. The temporary directory was removed after the check.

+
+This proves only the archive's Python settings logic under those local conditions. It does not prove that Decky 3.3.0 can dispatch these methods on the ARM64 Frame, that the opaque panel can save settings through the production bridge, or that a shelf appears on Steam Home or in VR.

+# Emuchievements ARM64 hash helper feasibility, 26 October 2026
+
+The exact official Emuchievements 2.0.5 archive (store ID 28, SHA-256
+`98dcb443e81b9f9011cfe77c69eb659869c8e2df2df8b0a443df66cbfc2f5a89`)
+contains an x86_64 `Emuchievements/bin/hash`. Frame Control still blocks
+that archive on ARM64; this experiment did not install the plugin.
+
+The upstream source commit
+[`8567e94befffc943434b2adb842487274815f8bb`](https://github.com/EmuDeck/Emuchievements/commit/8567e94befffc943434b2adb842487274815f8bb)
+declares version 2.0.5. Its `src/py/main.py` matches the published ZIP's
+`Emuchievements/main.py` byte for byte (SHA-256
+`d4e72f136c94e48919575937ec4190f28864cc259eb111ef47f0df99f5912645`).
+The pinned build dependencies at that commit are libarchive
+`b3be94ba4f36943745e64a6a0a3c21c2d1281d3c`, libchdr
+`a20e04c12c0c20048bf771da6df7aa2e51f5e0cb`, and rcheevos
+`85a3209398e576d79170f569fcddf277640f3f06`.
+
+On a separate Linux host, the version-matched source and submodules built an
+x86_64 `hash` with CMake. It and the official x86_64 binary both returned
+`ff78ca6c21ac11504dbddbd5d4e7524a` for one synthetic `.rom` file. An
+isolated Debian cross-build using `gcc-aarch64-linux-gnu` and
+`g++-aarch64-linux-gnu` produced an AArch64 binary with SHA-256
+`9c7aedb80bdd64941aa5dd9b41f9bb8471411c812e04c7ee7d60486779d99997`.
+It links to `liblzma.so.5`, `libstdc++.so.6`, `libgcc_s.so.1`, and `libc.so.6`.
+
+A real Frame test acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock` atomically with a unique
+owner before reading the device. SteamVR activity was **3** (standby),
+proximity raw **3.0625**, and battery **100%**. The ARM64 helper ran against
+the same synthetic ROM in a private `/tmp` directory, exited 0, and returned
+the same hash. The owned directory and lock were removed. No normal service,
+power setting, Steam library, real ROM, or installed plugin was changed.
+The separate host's source/build directory was also removed after the test.
+
+This proves only a single-file helper path. The official ZIP remains blocked
+because it still bundles x86_64 bytes. A release-ready port needs a packaged
+ARM64 helper with GPL-3.0 source and license compliance, format-specific hash
+coverage (including archives and CHD), a managed plugin transaction, actual
+Decky backend and frontend checks, and cleanup. RetroAchievements login,
+real ROM scanning, wearer-visible VR, and physical controller use remain
+unverified.

Its prior local Chromium run stopped before initialization with `Cannot read properties of null (reading 'type')`: the frontend dereferenced the result of `DFL.fakeRenderComponent` while looking for Steam's Library Context Menu.
+
+Framey's isolated host now returns an inert local component type from that lookup. The patch API remains a no-op and does not expose or modify a Steam React tree. In the repository's opaque Chromium audit, the unchanged archive reported initializer ready and rendered a Settings view containing Music Volume, Default Muted, Use yt-dlp, Invidious Instance, Download Music, Overrides and Extras. The audit observed a `get_setting` request, but denied the backend call. It also denied plugin network requests; a YouTube/Invidious fetch failed as expected. The bounded root-text observation came from the test iframe and contained only these public UI labels.
+
+The catalog therefore moves this digest from **broken** to **partial** for the visible local settings panel. No theme was played or injected into a Steam game page. Music search, playback, downloads, settings persistence, live ARM64 backend behavior, wearer-visible VR and physical controller input remain unverified. The earlier failed browser observation remains in the canonical JSON alongside this follow-up so the change in evidence is explicit.

+(SHA-256). The pinned `tests/fixtures/framey-official/111.zip` matches that
+digest and includes the upstream license.
+
+The unchanged backend fails before it reaches D-Bus: `sp_list_media_players`
+raises `TypeError: Plugin._get_dbus_env() takes 1 positional argument but 2
+were given`, and `sp_play` raises the corresponding `_sp_player_dbus` argument
+error. The source passes `self` explicitly to methods already bound by Python.
+
+For this exact store ID, archive digest and folder, a managed install removes
+the redundant argument at the five affected call sites. It checks the number
+of occurrences before writing `main.py` and records
+`music-control-bound-methods` in the managed receipt. The original ZIP remains
+the verified download; the older ID 12 archive is installed without this
+change.
+
+`test_exact_music_control_backend_calls_work_after_managed_install` installs
+the official ZIP through the production transaction script into a disposable
+home. It imports the patched backend and exercises player enumeration,
+selection, play/pause, next/previous, volume and playback-status calls against
+a private fake `dbus-send` executable that records the actual command
+arguments. It then removes the plugin through the receipt-bound transaction.
+The same test confirms ID 12 retains its original backend source. The focused
+store suite passed **23/23** tests locally. The pinned frontend/fake-Frame
+install/remove tests are part of the hosted gate.
+
+This proves that the Python argument mismatch no longer prevents backend
+command dispatch in the isolated fixture. The fixture is not an MPRIS player.
+Actual Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 execution, live player discovery, media transport,
+volume effects, album-art routing, and wearer-visible VR controls have not

The archive includes an empty `py_modules` directory and no `click` package. A prior actual Decky 3.3.0 amd64 backend check stopped at `ModuleNotFoundError: click`; its local frontend separately starts with Framey's read-only Steam library snapshot.
+
+Frame Control now writes a small Linux `click.get_app_dir` compatibility module into **only this exact digest's** managed `Shotty/py_modules` folder during staging. Decky Loader adds each plugin's `py_modules` folder to that plugin's Python search path. The staging transaction records `shotty-click-app-dir` in the receipt and removes the whole staged folder on failure. A different Shotty digest receives no module. The official ZIP bytes and their verified hash remain unchanged.
+
+An isolated transaction test installed the pinned archive, imported its unchanged `main.py` using the staged module, and called its `aggregate_all` method with a synthetic Steam screenshot under a temporary `HOME`. It copied one fixture image into that temporary home's `Pictures/Screenshots/Local Test Game` folder; reopening the copied bytes matched the source. Removal deleted the managed folder. A second synthetic Shotty archive with another digest installed without the module. The test neither started the plugin's continuous screenshot rescuer nor touched a person's Steam library or screenshots.

+This supports **partial** compatibility for the local frontend and a narrow backend copy path. Actual Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 plugin startup, gamescope screenshot rescue, real screenshot aggregation, VR panel visibility, and physical controller use remain unverified. No headset lock was acquired or headset state changed for this check.

+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. Simple Timer remains 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.
