+# Fake Frame package download retry, 26 October 2026
+
+The ARM64 fake Frame container sometimes fails before project tests start.
+Valve's `holo-packages.steamos.cloud` returned package responses with **164
+bytes missing** during the `pacman -Syu` layer in
+`tests/fakeframe/Containerfile`:
+
+| Run | Package and outcome |
+| --- | --- |
+| [v0.4.44 candidate checks](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40296431563) | `iptables` download truncated; a failed-only rerun passed on the unchanged PR head. |

+
+The fake Frame image now retries that package transaction at most five times,
+with a two-second delay after each failed attempt except the last. A fifth
+failure still fails the build. The end-to-end tests and their assertions are
+unchanged. This retry affects only the fake Frame test image; it does not
+change a real headset or the released application.
+
+Exact-head hosted CI must pass before this change is merged. A successful
+container build would show that at least one package attempt completed; it
+would not establish that Valve's package service is permanently healthy.

+# Chunked Framey frontend audit route, 26 October 2026
+
+The local 116-plugin Chromium audit served chunked modules at a route that
+omitted the store receipt, while the production panel requested
+`/framey/module/<id>/<receipt>/<file>`. The audit parsed that receipt as part
+of the file path and returned 404. This made its result for chunked frontends
+weaker than the separate targeted panel checks.
+
+The audit now accepts the production URL shape only when the plugin ID,
+receipt and JavaScript path are valid, the receipt equals the catalog SHA-256,
+and the cached archive bytes match that SHA-256. Invalid IDs, receipts, paths
+and changed archive bytes fail before the module is served. The production
+Framey panel and installer are unchanged.
+
+## Exact archived browser check
+
+Pinned official Deck Shelves 2.0.0 (store ID 135, SHA-256
+`b566280ad38fd3ecd584b5b46a855f301539eb9a86063834c64b7045f7063f91`)
+ran through the repaired audit in an opaque Chromium iframe. Its entry module
+and all eight JavaScript chunks returned HTTP 200 at receipt-bound URLs. The
+frontend reported ready and called `get_settings`; the audit denied that
+backend call and a Steam library read. Plugin network access remained blocked
+by the audit policy. The previous
+catalog browser observation had failed to resolve `./chunks/...` from a blob
+URL. This check verifies the current audit route and frontend initializer,
+not the official backend or a live shelf.
+
+The focused route regression covers entry and chunk reads plus wrong receipt,
+path traversal, malformed ID and changed archive bytes. The catalog's

 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.

-The catalog moves this exact version from broken to **partial** for visible local settings only. The plugin's main feature injects shelves into Steam Home; Framey has no verified Steam Home patch target. Settings writes, official backend behavior, real Frame module serving, wearer-visible VR, and physical controller input remain unverified. The [compatibility table](../framey-compatibility.md) and store views retain these limits.

+## Isolated official backend settings check
+
+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.
+
+```json
+{"archiveSha256":"b566280ad38fd3ecd584b5b46a855f301539eb9a86063834c64b7045f7063f91","defaultEnabled":false,"defaultShelves":0,"saveResult":true,"reopenedEnabled":true,"reopenedShelfTitle":"Local Test","settingsFileExists":true}
+```
+
+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.

+# DeckySpy system monitoring on Frame
+
+Official ID 89, DeckySpy 0.6.7, SHA-256
+`2d431a89826ed5cf3fd37258373eb3b46c841c39795aa8b25f83e59f4eee87c7`.
+[Redacted results](framey-deckyspy-2026-10-26.json).
+
+The official archive imports `psutil` but does not ship it. Published Decky
+3.3.0 reproduced `ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'psutil'` during backend
+startup. The previous catalog's account/external-integration reason was wrong:
+this plugin monitors local system metrics; its token is a local reload guard.
+
+Exact managed installs now include unmodified, SHA-256-pinned BSD-3-Clause
+psutil 7.2.2 stable-ABI wheels for amd64 and ARM64. The native architecture is
+selected remotely and its ELF header checked. Dependencies and their license
+stay in this plugin's `py_modules`; no pip, network download, system-library
+changes or other plugin imports are involved. [Provenance and license](../../ui/vendor/psutil-7.2.2/README.md).
+Existing copies need an explicit managed update or reinstall. Installed receipts
+without `deckyspy-psutil-and-battery` stay partial and display that requirement;
+they do not inherit the fixed catalog status.
+
+On Frame OS 0.5.6, upstream psutil also misses `max1720x_bat_7-36`: its Linux
+battery discovery filters names for `BAT` or `battery`. The plugin-local
+fallback preserves native psutil results, then reads supplies whose `type` is
+`Battery`. It reads capacity/status and optional time-to-empty in Linux sysfs
+seconds, leaves unknown states unknown, and never writes sysfs.
+
+Verification used the **published Decky 3.3.0 executable**, not a hand-built
+Plugin instance. Its actual legacy websocket route passed version, CPU,
+memory, battery, uptime, process and interface reads on the real ARM64 Frame.
+The memory total exactly matched `/proc/meminfo`. No process/network controls
+were run. Before starting, the test confirmed template migration sources were
+absent so upstream's template migrations could not move existing user data.
+
+Local headless Chromium rendered the exact official frontend in Framey's
+opaque iframe, connected through a single trusted SSH RPC pipe to that live
+ARM64 backend. CPU/memory/swap/uptime, 100% battery, process rows and interfaces
+rendered. A test OOM warning produced a silent visible toast. Native Chromium
+keyboard input changed only the private plugin refresh interval from 5 to 6;
+backend setting/commit calls and a fresh panel reopening confirmed persistence.
+No real media, volume, power, network or process settings changed.
+
+The shared `/tmp/frame-test.lock` protected all device execution. The private
+user service had a runtime limit and was stopped/removed, along with its base
+and upload. An independent SSH audit confirmed no unit/base/upload or running
+service remained. Battery stayed 100 → 100. Normal managed Decky was failed and
+the headset panel inactive as found; the lock was released. No headset wipe,
+normal service restart or installation outside the removable private user
+service occurred. Raw process names, addresses and local guard tokens were
+kept out of published evidence.
+
+Local verification also passed all five actual-Decky amd64 regression cases,
+the focused fake-Frame pinned install/remove transaction (backend execution
+stubbed), 1,649 Python tests (16 skips), and 46 app tests with Node 24. The
+native ARM64 CI gate additionally runs discovery/public calls for this shim.
+
+**Works** covers useful read-only system monitoring, a silent test warning and
+private settings while the panel is open. Automatic OOM/low-battery warnings,
+resume callbacks, game-time warnings, sound, worn VR and physical controllers
+remain unverified. No claim is made for persistent monitoring after closing
+Framey's isolated panel.

+AlarMe 1.6.3 now has usable timer, preset and stopwatch controls in the local
+Framey host with its official backend running on the ARM64 Frame. It remains
+**partial**. This check does not establish audio, alarm/reminder, sleep-control,
+background-notification or worn-VR compatibility.
+
+The exact archive is store ID 124, SHA-256
+`17d4166a9e98979df5fdb07c7eae42317acd54a453d3b82757508f971193c0fe`.
+See the [structured results](framey-dialog-controls-2026-10-26.json).
+
+## Reproduced blockers and repairs
+
+AlarMe uses DFL `Focusable.onActivate` for timer pause, save-as-preset, cancel,
+preset deletion, tabs and stopwatch controls. Framey's previous `div`
+passthrough ignored that callback: clicks on the save/pause controls did not
+dispatch backend calls. Focusable now maps pointer activation and Enter/Space
+to plugin callbacks, exposes a keyboard focus target and respects disabled
+controls. A click does not invoke both `onClick` and `onActivate` when a plugin
+supplies both; nested activation stops bubbling to the parent action.
+
+The previous ConfirmModal omitted `strDescription`, Cancel, middle actions and
+disabled flags. showModal did not inject a `closeModal` callback into custom
+dialog components, and every Close handle cleared the same root. A confirmation
+opened by another dialog could therefore disappear when the earlier action
+closed. Dialogs also appeared below the panel's long page content.
+
+Dialogs now occupy a scrollable overlay inside the opaque iframe. They preserve
+the underlying dialog's mounted state, receive scoped close callbacks, support
+Close/ClosedPromise/Update, show confirmation descriptions and cancel/middle
+actions, and respect disabled flags. The underlying plugin surface becomes
+inert while a dialog is open; Tab stays in the top dialog, Escape cancels it and
+closing restores focus. Steam popouts and controller navigation are not emulated.
+
+43 official archives import ConfirmModal and 65 import Focusable in this
+snapshot. These are shared API surfaces, **not** verification or status
+promotions for every importing plugin.
+
+## Real backend and local browser verification
+
+Held the normal atomic shared headset lock. Installed the exact official archive
+through the production archive validation/extraction path into a random private
+directory. Used published Decky 3.3.0 ARM64, an unprivileged user service that was
+never enabled, with a 900-second runtime bound and five-second stop timeout.
+RPCs and events used Framey's production receipt-bound bridge through real Steam
+CEF. The Chromium host served repository headset.html, React and framey-host.js;
+its status endpoints were fixture-shaped, while AlarMe RPCs/events were live.
+
+The initial private settings seed used the plugin display name instead of the
+archive folder. A safety assertion failed on readback of the defaults before any
+timer action. That service/data was removed and the lock released. The corrected
+run read back subtle mode, zero volume, no auto-suspend, no sleep inhibition and
+no overlay before exposing actions. Its relay allowed only the documented safe
+methods; sound, suspend, sleep-inhibitor and arbitrary plugin actions were denied.
+
+Verified with actual browser clicks and real backend readback:
+
+1. Add Label opened a custom timer dialog. Created a silent five-minute timer
+   named `Framey silent private timer`; live backend ticks changed its display.
+2. Pause and save-as-preset activated after the Focusable repair. Backend
+   readback reported a paused timer and its saved preset.
+3. Delete Preset showed the preset's name in its confirmation description.
+   Cancel closed the dialog without dispatching `remove_preset`; readback kept
+   the preset. Reopening and choosing Delete dispatched it once and removed it.
+4. Cancel removed the private timer. Watch opened the stopwatch; Start, Lap and
+   Pause produced real backend state and events.
+5. Closing and reopening the panel retained the paused stopwatch at 34.339
+   seconds and one lap. Reset cleared it. Final readback showed no active timers,
+   no laps and no active sleep inhibitor.
+
+A separate local Chromium DOM fixture passed 14 checks for nested-dialog state,
+scoped handles, descriptions, disabled buttons, Cancel, Escape, Tab wrapping,
+Close/ClosedPromise/Update and pointer/Enter/Space activation. These programmatic
+DOM checks do not verify physical input devices.
+
+Review follow-up: Update also injects the scoped close callback into replacement
+dialogs. Node regression contracts update to ConfirmModal and exercise both OK
+and Cancel, with and without a plugin close callback, then await ClosedPromise.
+They verify that the replacement's callback runs once and the original callback
+is not retained. This extends the local host's Update behavior so replacements
+remain dismissible; this follow-up was not rerun in Chromium or on the headset.
+
+## Cleanup and remaining limits
+
+Removed both private service units, bases and uploaded archives; reloaded the
+user service manager and released the matching shared lock. A fresh locked audit
+confirmed both units were not found, inactive and PID zero, with all test paths
+absent. Managed Decky remained failed and the headset panel inactive, matching
+the initial state. Battery was 97% before and 96% after. No power settings changed.
+
+AlarMe stays partial. Audio, sound imports, alarms/reminders, auto-suspend and
+`/dev/uinput` sleep inhibition were not exercised. Steam's global/in-game overlay
+has no injection target inside Framey's isolated panel. Notifications require
+the plugin panel to remain open. The deployed headset HTTP host, worn VR and
+physical controller/keyboard input were not tested in this pass.
+
+The store and documentation use the same exact-digest catalog reason. Aggregate
+counts remain **4 works / 49 partial / 52 broken / 11 N/A**.
+
+Validation: all 116 official IDs/versions/digests unchanged on store refresh;
+fake-Frame 60 installed/removed and 56 blocked; full Python suite 1,628 tests,
+16 skipped; Framey action/running Node contracts and both site test files pass.
+The no-Steam-context Chromium pass attempted all 116 frontends (101 initialized,
+15 failed); backend and network access were denied throughout that pass.
+The repeat with synthetic library/running context initialized 104 of 116, with no
+initialization regressions against the prior context-replay pass. Neither
+initialization pass is a useful-functionality check.

+# 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.

+# DeckyFileServer ARM64 backend — 27 October 2026
+
+DeckyFileServer **1.2.0**, official store ID **60**, moves **broken → partial**
+only for the exact managed archive
+`7dc2ecdcd05aa415d1ac90afaff28ecb17f77809a2bc7a77aee8e92505b976f0`.
+[Redacted observations](framey-fileserver-arm64-2026-10-27.json).
+
+## Confirmed blockers and adaptation
+
+The published ZIP contains a 19,779,282-byte x86_64 Go helper and requests `_root`.
+Its actual operations use ordinary file permissions and an unprivileged port.
+The managed installer replaces only this digest's original helper, checks the
+replacement hash and ELF machine on the Frame, and removes only this manifest's
+root request. Unknown versions, other binaries and root plugins remain blocked;
+the Frame repeats archive/root/binary checks before extraction.
+
+Pinned upstream commit `dcf3f3ce5104d05811fa8c156c4f58632b84b313` has Python,
+manifest and package metadata byte-identical to the store archive. The published
+Go executable lacks a VCS revision, so that binary's source revision cannot be
+independently established. The rebuilt static Linux amd64/ARM64 helpers use
+Go 1.25.7 and vendored dependencies. Complete corresponding GPL source, dependency
+licenses, build recipe and hash pins ship with both desktop and headset bundles:
+[provenance](../../ui/vendor/deckyfileserver-1.2.0/README.md).
+The sole Go change sends its log to Decky's per-plugin log directory instead of
+one global `/tmp` file. No compiler, pip, root service or runtime download is used.
+
+Actual published Decky 3.3.0 discovery/public API1 RPC reproduced a hostname-DNS
+failure in `get_status`. A local-address fallback selects the kernel source IP
+without sending a packet, or returns loopback when no route exists.
+The original command array includes empty strings for omitted flags; Go stops
+parsing there and silently ignores the following `-disablethumbnails` flag.
+The shim filters empty arguments and applies the thumbnail setting before start.
+A negative runtime case restores the original empty arguments and proves that
+thumbnails remain enabled despite the setting. **Decky 3.3.0 does expose
+`decky.HOME`**; an initial assumption that it was removed was disproved by the
+actual runtime. That API call and the plugin's API1 instance convention stay intact.
+
+## Verification
+
+- **Published Decky 3.3.0 amd64:** actual discovery, default settings, public
+  API1 calls, native HTTPS directory listing and marker download, disabled
+  thumbnails, upload endpoint returning 401, history and server stop. Execution
+  used an unprivileged, network-isolated, read-only disposable container.
+- **Real Frame ARM64, Frame OS 0.5.6:** the same useful backend actions passed
+  through Steam CEF's existing Decky websocket, using a bounded private user
+  service and a directory containing only public test markers. No home directory
+  was shared and uploads stayed off.
+- **Local Chromium opaque iframe with the actual Frame backend:** official
+  warning, Enable Server, stop, settings modal and panel reopen with persisted
+  private directory passed. A separate LAN host downloaded exactly the public
+  marker over HTTPS after the panel started the server. The relay allowed only
+  safe settings on that private directory; it denied uploads and other methods.
+- **Fake Frame:** pinned archive install/remove, original frontend bytes,
+  replaced native helper hash, root-free manifest and managed shim receipt
+  passed through HTTP and SSH. Fake Frame does not execute plugin backends.
+
+The shared `/tmp/frame-test.lock` was acquired normally and released after each
+run. Two private test-adapter errors and an early LAN-readiness assertion were
+corrected before the successful run; all attempts cleaned their private services
+and artifacts. Normal managed Decky remained failed and the panel inactive,
+matching their original states. Battery stayed **100 → 100** and no power setting
+was changed. An independent SSH audit confirms base/unit/upload absent,
+`MainPID=0`, `LoadState=not-found` and lock absent. Chromium and the local relay
+were closed. No worn-VR claim is made.
+
+The final branch, including merged DeckySpy and Simple Timer, passes **1,662
+Python tests (16 skipped)**, all **9** published Decky 3.3.0 amd64 probes, **46**
+app tests and pinned fake-Frame install/remove. Both helper rebuilds match byte
+for byte. The combined headset bundle is 12,485,251 bytes, below its existing
+32 MiB limit, and includes both native dependencies plus GPL source/licenses.
+
+## Remaining limitations
+
+The official frontend advertises **HTTP** and a **steamdeck** hostname even
+though its helper always serves HTTPS. Use `https://<Frame address>:<port>`;
+the upstream public self-signed certificate produces a browser warning.
+Its Steam folder picker is unavailable in Framey; tests preconfigured only the
+private fixture directory. The thumbnail toggle also appeared unchecked in the
+settings modal while backend state was true; saving that modal was not tested.
+These are concrete frontend follow-ups, so the plugin remains **partial**.
+Uploads, thumbnail generation, inactivity shutdown, protected-file permissions
+and worn VR remain unverified. The server exposes its selected directory on all
+interfaces without authentication; select only files intended for sharing on a
+trusted network. Existing unadapted copies require managed update/reinstall.

+# Free Loader duplicate archive entries, 26 October 2026
+
+The exact official Free Loader 1.6.0 archive is store ID 63, SHA-256
+`05208aee6f6ba824391d8ddc81b1168b2599a9711e7528cdaa789f6cc710b42a`.
+It has 23 ZIP entries. Seven names under `free-loader/py_modules/` occur
+twice. Each duplicate pair has identical uncompressed bytes and file type;
+five Python files and `.keep` differ only between mode `0644` and `0755`.
+The directory entry is identical. No path escape, symlink or alternate content
+was accepted.
+
+The installer now accepts an exact duplicate name only when its bytes match
+and its mode differs at most in execute bits. Both desktop validation and the
+headset transaction enforce that rule before extraction. The existing member
+count, unpacked-size, per-member-size, root, path and ARM64 checks still run.
+Synthetic tests reject changed duplicate payloads and non-execute mode changes.
+
+## Scoped verification
+
+- The exact archive passed the revised validator. A private local transaction
+  installed and removed its `free-loader` folder and receipt; cleanup left no
+  plugin folder. The focused store suite passed 21/21 tests, including a
+  duplicate-member install/remove and permission readback.
+- After merging current main, the full local Python suite passed **1,637
+  tests, 16 skipped**. The generated compatibility document check and
+  whitespace check passed.
+- The pinned official fake-Frame HTTP/SSH install/remove test passed with this
+  archive alongside the other pinned fixtures. It ran in a uniquely named
+  disposable Compose project; its containers, network and volumes were removed.
+  The fake does not execute the plugin's Python backend.
+- The current Framey opaque Chromium host on main `d963305` initialized the
+  exact frontend. Its **Free Games** view rendered, then displayed “Failed to
+  load games!” because the audit intentionally denied all backend/network
+  calls. It attempted `settings_read`, `read_deals` and logger methods.
+  The browser audit's former `local_bundle` stub had returned HTTP 404 after
+  receipt-bound panel lookup was introduced; the audit now supplies the
+  digest-checked bundle and receipt to the shipped panel renderer.
+- Exact official Python backend code ran in a disposable Python 3.12 container
+  with network disabled, read-only root, no capabilities, a private data mount
+  and a minimal `decky` API stub. `_main`, `settings_read` and `read_deals`
+  succeeded: 14 default settings, a 12-hour update frequency, an empty deals
+  map, and only private `settings.json`/`deal_db.json` files. The container
+  and its private files were removed. No feed refresh or notification ran.
+
+This makes **partial** the accurate digest-scoped status. The earlier full
+116-plugin fake-Frame catalog audit blocked this archive before the validator
+change; the focused pinned flow now passes. Actual Decky 3.3.0 backend load,
+live giveaway feeds, notification delivery, headset install, worn UI and
+physical controller input remain unverified. No real Frame session or service

+# Game Theme Music local panel check, 26 October 2026
+
+The exact official Game Theme Music 1.7.1-1 archive (store ID 52, SHA-256 `9ce293ab4db212c03c6b96dfbc5e4d92e874d33387463f53223773921f75a80e`) passed the existing fake Frame install/remove audit. 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.

+# Junk-Store About and read-only installed metadata
+
+Junk-Store 1.1.13 (official ID 84) now renders its About and Dependencies tabs
+without the `local_per_client_data.installed` crash recorded in the
+[script-entrypoint audit](framey-script-entrypoints-2026-10-26.md). It remains
+**partial**. The catalog and both store views use the same updated reason.
+
+The library snapshot omitted the entire `local_per_client_data` object. The
+official frontend dereferences it to display its dependency controls. Under the
+shared headset lock, a read-only probe confirmed that the real Frame exposes
+this object for the two Proton runtimes, but neither has an `installed` boolean.
+Across 1,106 app overviews, 41 had `installed: true`, none had `false`, and 1,065
+had no installed boolean. Those absent values must not be relabelled as false.
+
+The snapshot adds one bounded scalar per app: a Steam-supplied boolean or null.
+Framey's detached overview creates a minimal metadata object, copying `installed`
+only for a boolean. Null leaves that property undefined. No client IDs, paths,
+other metadata, live Steam objects or methods cross the iframe boundary. Eight
+scalar rows remain accepted, and running-app updates preserve library metadata.
+The snapshot still refreshes at panel open; it is not a live installation feed.
+
+## Actual ARM64 backend and local Chromium
+
+The unmodified, hash-verified official archive ran in published Decky 3.3.0 ARM64
+on Frame OS 0.5.6 using a private, bounded, removable user service. Legendary was
+absent; no dependency installer, runtime install, login, game operation or custom
+backend download was invoked. The exact plugin and loader digests are in the
+[redacted results](framey-installed-context-2026-10-26.json).
+
+Local Chromium ran the actual Framey host and official frontend in an opaque
+iframe. The production receipt-bound bridges read the real Steam library and
+called the official ARM64 backend's static menu actions. About content and its
+tab list, Dependencies controls, Back, close/reopen, and About again passed.
+No dependency buttons were pressed. The real library counts matched the probe.
+
+The optional localhost websocket was blocked by the test relay CSP; RSS was
+deliberately denied. Outer status/install/check replies were fixtures; incomplete
+outer extension/status and running-context replies are excluded from the plugin
+claim. The screenshot still used the catalog reason from before this follow-up.
+Dependency installation, login, game operations, RSS, websocket operations,
+shortcut changes, deployed headset HTTP and worn VR remain unverified.
+
+## Cleanup and regression checks
+
+The initial cleanup SSH timed out while the private Decky unit was deactivating.
+Recovery checked the matching lock owner, killed only that exact test unit, and
+removed its private base, unit file and archive. A fresh locked audit independently
+confirmed unloaded/inactive/PID 0 and no artifacts, then released its lock. Normal
+managed Decky/panel services stayed inactive; battery was 99 → 99. No power-setting
+action ran. Local relay and owned browser tab are closed.
+
+- Full Python suite: 1,628 tests, 16 skipped, no failures; focused panel: 22 passed.
+- Framey action/running Node contracts passed, including true/false/unknown,
+  malformed metadata, detached values, old rows and running-update preservation.
+- Both site test files passed. Generated docs and diff checks passed.
+- All 116 exact official archives passed the fake-Frame audit: 60 installed/removed,
+  56 expected blocks; disposable project removed. Backend execution is stubbed in
+  that harness. The fresh official store has 116 entries, no audit errors, and an
+  unchanged ID/version/digest set.
+
+No new works claim is made. Catalog totals remain **4 works / 49 partial / 52 broken
+/ 11 N/A**; only Junk-Store's verified scope and remaining limits change.

+# Decky Localsend managed ARM64 candidate, 27 October 2026
+
+Official Decky Localsend **0.4.5**, store ID **125**, archive SHA-256
+`e271ccb55eb23f918b99a69f79aec905df4c9b2ef7b23bbf4ec1c2d1a6f0c6b7`,
+contains an x86_64 helper. Frame Control's proposed managed adaptation accepts
+only that exact archive. The original x86 helper and Python backend hashes are
+checked before a pinned static ARM64 helper replaces the binary. The headset
+transaction checks the ARM64 SHA-256 and ELF machine again. It leaves the
+official Python, frontend, manifest and BSD license unchanged, retains
+managed update/remove receipts, and rejects changed archive digests.
+
+[Source correspondence and local upstream transfer](framey-localsend-source-match-2026-10-27.md)
+records the exact upstream plugin tag and Go commit. The native asset and
+build recipe are [bundled](../../ui/vendor/localsend-0.4.5/README.md).
+Go dependencies are checksum-pinned but not vendored. The Frame installer
+does not download modules or run a compiler.
+
+## Evidence so far
+
+- The host transaction tests installed and removed the exact archive,
+  preserved its Python/LICENSE bytes, checked the managed receipt and
+  rejected a changed archive. The ARM64 branch independently wrote and
+  hashed the AArch64 ELF on x86 without executing it.
+- The fake Frame managed install/remove flow passed with the exact official
+  archive and checked the installed helper digest. Its project containers,
+  volumes and network were absent after the run.
+- The full local Python suite passed **1,669 tests with 16 skipped** after
+  rerunning with loopback socket access. The first attempt ran inside a
+  workspace sandbox that denied local test sockets across unrelated server
+  tests; it did not identify a LocalSend regression.
+- A fresh local Chromium opaque iframe initialized the exact official frontend
+  with backend and network effects denied. Its visible text included Backend is
+  stopped, Device Name, Available Devices, File Upload, Receive History and
+  Configuration. The initializer reported ready and called only
+  `get_receive_history`, `get_backend_status` and `get_backend_config`.
+  This proves a visible initial panel with safe fallbacks, not working send,
+  receive or settings controls.
+- The original x86 backend and helper completed one private no-route marker
+  transfer outside Decky. This does not prove the managed ARM64 binary or
+  actual Decky service.
+- The published Decky 3.3.0 AMD64 and ARM64 runtime gate discovered the
+  adapted plugin and returned its stopped status and safe configuration through
+  public RPCs. Its helper remained stopped during that gate.
+- A locked real Frame probe ran the rebuilt ARM64 helper with SHA-256
+  `e20363237e606ee65eae857792176d21a0bb8ba863489952728eaf2b13277dae`
+  in a private network namespace with no default route. Its LocalSend 2.0
+  endpoint accepted and saved one 38-byte marker, and the saved bytes matched
+  the sent marker. The headset was in standby (SteamVR activity 3, proximity
+  raw 4.6875) with 72% battery before and after. Both normal Frame Control
+  services stayed inactive. The owned helper/process/files and shared lock
+  were removed. [Machine-readable result](framey-localsend-arm64-transfer-2026-10-27.json).
+
+A useful frontend workflow still needs verification. The ARM64 marker test
+exercised the helper in isolation, not the actual Decky plugin service, local
+discovery, user-facing transfer, or installation on the headset. No worn
+visibility or physical-controller claim follows from this candidate.
+
+The proposed catalog status is **partial** for exact managed archive
+installation and settings/status. Steam routes, local discovery, user-facing
+transfer, clipboard/screenshot sharing and worn VR remain unverified. The
+historical raw-archive audit fields still describe the earlier unadapted x86
+ZIP; `managedNative` records the current digest-scoped path separately.

+# Decky Localsend 0.4.5 source match and ARM64 build, 27 October 2026
+
+The exact official store archive (ID 125, SHA-256
+`e271ccb55eb23f918b99a69f79aec905df4c9b2ef7b23bbf4ec1c2d1a6f0c6b7`)
+remains **blocked** on Frame: it carries an x86_64 `bin/localsend-core`.
+No managed plugin install, transfer, or status promotion was performed.
+
+The archive's `main.py` has SHA-256
+`db03f9201fe50b75dea99a7a05b54ec3f352d1bdfe174115b0e569154198d8ad`,
+identical byte for byte to `main.py` at the upstream Decky plugin tag `v0.45`
+(`7c166bdc33e2a667527ffd511eb5b90d3ce0bd67`). That tag pins its Go
+submodule to `ad28b8e9440e17e44b4735a6c4aa0512009cf333`. All 42 dependency
+versions embedded in the official helper match that source's `go.mod`, which
+declares Go 1.25.7.
+
+Building that pinned Go commit with `CGO_ENABLED=0`, `GOOS=linux`,
+`GOARCH=amd64`, and the flags `-trimpath -buildvcs=false -ldflags='-s -w'`
+produced **byte-identical** official helper bytes: 15,241,400 bytes,
+SHA-256 `d448d03861d578685e6c70ea3ace25eb34fca99cb9d4f98bf51ba23aa5cae843`.
+This resolves the source correspondence gap left by the earlier build from
+the later `66edc509` commit. The same pinned source and flags with
+`GOARCH=arm64` produced a static AArch64 ELF of 11,731,128 bytes, SHA-256
+`e20363237e606ee65eae857792176d21a0bb8ba863489952728eaf2b13277dae`.
+Two ARM64 builds matched byte for byte. The Go core is MIT licensed; the
+separate Decky Python plugin is BSD-3-Clause.
+
+A unique-owner atomic `/tmp/frame-test.lock` preflight on the real Frame read
+SteamVR activity **1**, proximity raw **88.0625**, and battery **35%**.
+Because the headset was active or wearer status was unknown, the probe did
+not upload or execute the ARM64 helper, start a LocalSend service, or send
+input. The task-owned directory was absent and only the owned lock was
+released. This is **not** a worn visual or controller result.
+
+The unmodified plugin backend's `_main` starts a fixed-path Unix notification
+socket but does not start the Go network service. Its explicit `start_backend`
+method starts the helper with a default all-interface setting, HTTPS and
+auto-save disabled. A local follow-up ran that exact Python backend with the
+official x86_64 helper in a disposable user/network namespace. A veth pair
+provided only documentation-range private addresses and there was no default
+route. A private Decky module stub supplied task-owned settings, runtime,
+plugin and log directories; its notification socket was moved into that
+directory. The backend's `start_backend`, `proxy_get` info request and
+`proxy_post` prepare/upload methods passed. One 42-byte public marker
+arrived in the private upload directory with independent SHA-256
+`346373ca56ec52c3f47b8d41de2a6a8479d8ad10d2891ff3b0dc7ea9c3892a39`.
+The backend stopped, its process and private directory were absent, and the
+global notification socket was untouched. This verifies the upstream x86
+backend/proxy/transfer contract locally, **not** Decky 3.3.0 discovery, ARM64
+transfer, an installed Frame plugin or real-network transfer.
+
+Before a managed ARM64 adaptation, verify actual Decky backend discovery/RPC,
+the frontend and a private transfer with the exact-source ARM64 helper;
+package the source, license and exact helper digest. The official x86_64
+archive remains blocked until that work passes. Worn VR and physical
+controller use remain unverified.

+# MusicControl / Music Control runtime checks, 26 October 2026
+
+Both official entries remain **partial**. Their pure-Python backends need a
+user-session MPRIS player and `dbus-send`, rather than Deck-specific hardware or
+an x86 binary. [Results](framey-mpris-runtime-2026-10-26.json) pin both archives
+and the actual Decky 3.3.0 executables used.
+
+Two runtime failures were reproduced and repaired:
+
+- The #335 `music-control-bound-methods` transformation was incorrect. Neither
+  manifest declares `api_version`, so Decky uses `module.Plugin` and explicitly
+  supplies the class as `self`. The earlier test used `module.Plugin()` and
+  therefore diagnosed a fixture error as an upstream bug. In actual Decky,
+  the transformation breaks discovery with `_get_dbus_env() missing ... self`
+  and transport with `_sp_player_dbus() missing ... parameters`. Managed installs
+  now retain the original class calls. This supersedes the earlier
+  [bound-method evidence](framey-music-control-bound-methods-2026-10-26.md).
+- On Frame OS 0.5.6, MusicControl 1.1.6's `/bin/sh` subprocess inherits Decky's
+  PyInstaller library path. Its bundled `libtinfo.so.6` needs `GLIBC_2.42`, which
+  the Frame's libc lacks. A private diagnostic backend confirmed the same
+  read-only D-Bus command fails with a shell and succeeds without one. Both
+  exact-archive backends now restore `LD_LIBRARY_PATH_ORIG` (or an empty path)
+  only in their copied D-Bus subprocess environment. The Decky process keeps
+  its original environment. The receipt records `music-control-system-dbus-env`.
+
+The patch is gated by store ID, SHA-256 and folder, and checks the expected
+source before editing. Existing installed copies need **remove/reinstall** or
+an explicit managed update; a desktop update alone does not rewrite them.
+The store still shows partial, with the same reason as the docs table.
+
+Actual Decky 3.3.0 amd64 ran each repaired production-managed install separately
+in a container with no network, host audio, host D-Bus, home or device access.
+A private `dbus-daemon` hosted a silent synthetic MPRIS service. Discovery,
+selection, identity, metadata, status, progress, volume/CanSeek reads,
+play/pause, next/previous, seek, track position and volume writes passed through
+the real legacy websocket RPC envelope. The service's own state independently
+confirmed each write. The shared plugin folder prevents co-installation; each
+entry was tested in a fresh container.
+
+Local headless Chromium loaded the shipped `headset.html` and exact official
+frontends inside their ordinary opaque `allow-scripts` iframe. The relay used
+actual Decky backends and allowed only the private fixture. Track/artist
+rendering, previous/next, play/pause, seek to 90 seconds, volume to 60%, Info
+navigation and close/reopen passed for both entries. Chromium retained its
+normal process isolation and sandboxed-origin restrictions. No external media
+or artwork request was permitted.
+
+Under the shared `/tmp/frame-test.lock`, a removable private Decky 3.3.0 ARM64
+user service loaded each corrected managed install on the real Frame.
+Read-only `sp_list_media_players` returned an empty string successfully for
+both, and `sp_get_media_player` returned their default Spotify bus name.
+These final checks used Decky's direct loopback websocket through SSH; they
+do not claim the deployed Framey HTTP/CEF route. Earlier CEF attempts encountered
+transient reinjection failures. No player controls ran on the real Frame.
+The private units, runtimes and owned Steam image-cache link were removed;
+independent follow-up reads confirmed cleanup and lock release. Battery was
+100 → 100. Existing managed Decky remained failed and the headset panel inactive,
+as found. Power settings were not changed.
+
+Remaining gaps: actual media-app playback/volume on ARM64, local-file album-art
+routing, physical controls and worn VR. Both backends truncate multiword player
+names to their last word. Music Control 1.1.7 automatically probes volume by
+writing 0.01 and restoring it; this was exercised only on the silent fixture.
+
+Validation: full Python suite **1,639 tests, 16 skipped**; focused managed-store
+suite **23/23**; shared frontend action checks; all **116** store digests unchanged.
+The complete fake-Frame audit passed: **61 installed/removed, 55 rejected**
+for documented safeguards; official backends are stubbed in that harness. The
+regression test uses Decky's actual legacy class convention for both entries,
+checks original/absent library-path restoration without changing the parent
+environment, and rejects transferring the patch to a different archive digest.
+
+The pinned HTTP/SSH flow also passed `scripts/e2e.sh test_framey`: **2/2**
+tests in 32.590 seconds. Its receipt assertion covers the replacement shim for
+both Music Control entries; the old assertion caused the first hosted e2e
+failure and left a plugin installed, cascading into the following test.

+# Superseded: Music Control bound-method fixture
+
+The #335 result was incorrect. Its test instantiated `module.Plugin()`, while
+actual Decky 3.3.0 uses the class `module.Plugin` for this legacy manifest and
+supplies the class as `self`. The published backend's explicit-self calls are
+correct in that runtime. Removing those arguments breaks actual Decky discovery
+and transport.
+
+The follow-up [real runtime checks](framey-mpris-runtime-2026-10-26.md) reproduce
+the regression, remove the incorrect transformation and replace the test with
+the actual legacy calling convention. They also identify and repair a separate
+Frame OS system-command library-path failure. Existing copies installed with
+`music-control-bound-methods` must be removed/reinstalled or explicitly updated.
+Both official Music Control entries remain partial; the follow-up describes
+exactly what passed and what remains unverified.

+# Native plugin packaging blockers, 26 October 2026
+
+This is a static, digest-scoped follow-up. Neither plugin was installed or
+run on the Frame. Their compatibility statuses remain **broken**.
+
+## Decky Cloud Save 1.4.2, store ID 49
+
+The official ZIP SHA-256 is
+`b311d967ddf1b0f0046d36929645855891a40173e3a93f6f0cd8b1576b04b411`.
+It was downloaded and hash-checked without executing any member. Of its 27
+members, `decky-cloud-save/bin/rclone` is a regular executable of **60,776,600
+bytes** with ELF machine **62 (x86_64)**. The installer permits at most 30 MiB
+per member, so this exact ZIP fails before native architecture validation.
+Raising that limit alone would still leave an x86_64 executable on the ARM64
+Frame. No cloud credentials, saves, reads or writes were exercised.
+
+## Emuchievements 2.0.5, store ID 28
+
+The official ZIP SHA-256 is
+`98dcb443e81b9f9011cfe77c69eb659869c8e2df2df8b0a443df66cbfc2f5a89`.
+The [earlier helper check](framey-emuchievements-arm-2026-10-26.md) proved
+one synthetic ROM hash on ARM64, without installing the plugin. The upstream
+source commit `8567e94befffc943434b2adb842487274815f8bb` and its pinned
+libarchive, libchdr and rcheevos submodules were checked out separately for
+this audit. The source is GPL-3.0. An isolated Debian ARM64 cross-build made a
+2.6 MB helper (`c8794558a0d75294930f969a426e7d2ac13a27e3c1ff9bd8aae093e31596b9bd`),
+but it was **not shipped or run on ROM archives**. A complete source bundle
+without Git metadata compressed to about 8 MB; source and license distribution
+would be part of any release-ready port.
+
+The proposed source has an additional blocker. `backend/src/util.cpp` builds
+an extraction destination by appending each raw archive member pathname to
+an owned `/tmp/tmpdir.*` prefix, then passes it to libarchive's disk writer.
+It neither rejects `..`/absolute paths nor enables libarchive's secure path
+flags. `backend/src/main.cpp` later removes the extracted file's parent path.
+With an untrusted archive, those paths may leave the intended temporary
+directory. The plugin's Python backend also invokes `bin/hash` through a
+shell with a path argument. A port needs bounded path validation, secure
+extraction/cleanup, safe subprocess arguments, format coverage and actual
+Decky/backend tests before its official ZIP can be transformed or installed.
+
+The official archive still contains an x86_64 helper. RetroAchievements
+login, real ROM scanning, a packaged ARM64 backend, wearer-visible VR and
+physical controller use remain unverified.

+# Framey receipt guard, unworn Frame exercise (26 October 2026)
+
+The bounded `scripts/framey-vr-check.py --exercise` runner acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock` with its own random owner before reading the real Frame. Its 05:26 UTC run used source commit `c2f94c242dac670e18259193311a7375f5a87942`. Preflight found SteamVR activity 3 (standby), proximity 6.25 and battery 99%. No wearer was confirmed.
+
+The temporary Frame Control dashboard overlay became visible to OpenVR. The stereo compositor image changed, and the `/dev/video99` mirror produced a frame. The sample settings panel displayed its stored off value, accepted a trusted synthetic OpenVR pointer event, saved on through the real Decky Python backend, read the setting from disk, and showed on after a fresh iframe reopen. The quick action read on. A native slider reached 50. Text entry used CDP after OpenVR focus. The runner exited 0 with `input.passed=true` and `compositorChanged=true`.
+
+The private capture files remain outside the repository at `/tmp/frame-pr301-unworn-vr-fixed/`. The before/after stereo SHA-256 values were `1683bf1dab70c1a0a1e8f313c8317dc04f992070b5b0de232de9008700130711` and `684a27eecf7bcbbc5308092ddbb1517c4596fb283e061e73dd6bb7f025954e8b`; the mirror frame SHA-256 was `5939149ea9c85fd2d86d3f8879c348f006c421a386bd66a93fe`. Room pixels are not committed.
+
+An earlier locked run at 05:24 UTC exposed a missing SHA-256 in the runner's temporary sample receipt: the new guard correctly asked to reopen the panel. Commit `c2f94c2` gives that sample a content digest; the second run passed. Both runs reported no cleanup errors, restored `power.pauseCompositorOnStandby=false` and `power.turnOffScreensTimeout=5`, removed their power recovery timers, and released only their own locks. Battery remained 99%.
+
+This is an **unworn sample-plugin result**. It does not prove wearer-visible pixels, physical controller input, native scrolling (the attempted scroll offset stayed 0), VR keyboard behavior, comfort, or any official Decky plugin's VR panel or backend. The hourly worn check remains enabled.

+# Running-game context and Discord Status, 2026-10-26
+
+Framey now projects running apps and the selected main app from Steam CEF into
+detached `SteamUIStore` / `DFL.Router` getters. It relays actual Steam lifetime
+callbacks while the panel is open. Public Steam CDN capsule URLs are projected
+for running apps; local artwork paths and URL query data never cross the bridge.
+The [machine-readable evidence](framey-running-context-2026-10-26.json) records
+the exact archives, fixtures, browser observations and cleanup results.
+
+| Plugin / scope | Result | Verification |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Discord Status 1.5.0 | **Broken → partial.** Disconnected panel renders; activity construction accepts the synthetic running game without the previous missing-store/artwork errors. | Exact unmodified official frontend in opaque Chromium iframe; backend/network denied. Actual official `is_connected` returns false in real Decky 3.3.0 ARM64, with no Discord IPC present. |
+| Pause Games | **Partial.** Running-list initialization reaches `pid_from_appid` for the synthetic game. | Local Chromium fixture; all backend calls, including settings writes and process actions, denied. |
+| Notebook | **Works for its previously verified default notebook scope.** Per-game context is now supplied, but real per-game selection remains unverified. | Synthetic game causes the official frontend to request `loadPage`; backend calls denied in this pass. Earlier default save/reopen ARM64 evidence remains separate. |
+| PlayTime | **Partial.** Running snapshots do not satisfy its private MobX observation. | Local Chromium explicitly logs that its running-app observer is unavailable. No automatic tracking claim. |
+| 14 other focused panels | Labels retained. Initialization alone does not establish backend functionality. | Exact frontends with synthetic nonempty running/library snapshots and backend/network denied; Game Sync still stops on the denied `get_config` read. |
+
+The bridge addresses a shared dependency detected in 34 official frontend
+bundles, including hardware-inapplicable plugins whose installation remains
+blocked. This is infrastructure coverage, not 34 working plugins. Catalog after
+this pass: **3 works / 49 partial / 53 broken / 11 N/A**.
+
+## Real Frame checks and cleanup
+
+Every device probe acquired the atomic `/tmp/frame-test.lock` and released only
+its matching owner. Read-only probes verified the actual RunningApps and
+MainRunningApp getter implementations, the lifetime API's object with an
+`unregister()` method, and a public `https://shared.steamstatic.com` capsule URL.
+
+A private removable user service ran the published Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 executable
+and the exact unmodified Discord Status 1.5.0 store archive. Production
+`framey_panel.call_method` returned false from `is_connected`. Production
+`poll_running` verified two empty running-list reads, an actual lifetime
+subscription and explicit close. The device had no running apps: **nonempty
+reads and launch/exit callbacks were not observed on hardware**. Decky startup
+reinjected its frontend/restarted Steam CEF. No plugin game, power, audio or process-control
+action was invoked, and no Discord connection/activity mutation was allowed.
+
+After close, CEF reported zero sessions and a null timer. The test service,
+unit and private base were removed. A fresh independently locked audit read
+`LoadState=not-found`, `ActiveState=inactive`, `MainPID=0`, absent paths and zero
+CEF sessions/timers. Battery stayed **99 → 99**; normal Decky stayed failed and
+the normal panel service stayed inactive. No headset wipe or system service
+installation was used.

+- Full local Chromium sweep: 103 of 116 initializer-ready with explicitly

+  and launch/exit notifications in these tests are explicit synthetic fixtures.

+old callbacks. Polling runs about every two seconds with no overlap. At most four
+CEF sessions survive; unreachable cleanup expires after 15 seconds, checked
+every five seconds. The bridge does not implement private MobX internals,
+suspend/input events, game actions or closed-panel automation.
+
+Discord shortcut detection, real IPC connection/activity, local custom artwork,
+actual running-game transitions, worn VR and physical controller/keyboard use
+remain unverified. None of the new fixture checks promotes a plugin to works.
+
+After #301 merged, running polls and both close paths adopted its pinned SHA-256
+receipt guard. Local Python/Node tests verify the parent carries that receipt,
+missing/stale receipts are rejected before CEF after plugin replacement, and a
+reopened panel can poll and close with the new receipt. Rejected stale closes
+retain the tested finite-lease cleanup. This authorization-only follow-up did
+not repeat the device checks above; their recorded hardware scope is unchanged.
+
+## Post-merge unworn panel exercise
+
+On merged main `daee952873255b86018cce1d2a4d3bd070ec4341`,
+`scripts/framey-vr-check.py --exercise --output /tmp/framey-post304-exercise`
+acquired its own `/tmp/frame-test.lock` before any headset read. At 05:54 UTC,
+preflight found SteamVR activity 3 (standby), proximity 6.25 and battery 99%.
+The temporary sample panel passed the real Decky setting save and fresh-iframe
+reopen, a trusted synthetic OpenVR pointer, quick action, slider value 50 and
+CDP text entry after OpenVR focus. Stereo compositor SHA-256 changed from
+`50fcab1ee25e6d9398106cc0c24ec6616e07bcf4573b52be1774c715b756060b`
+to `98241806fb1f775e7f4c5ef0b0564bfd3c552ee896ff225b4d0cb5b7b53f70d1`;
+the `/dev/video99` mirror capture hash was
+`c284c05f86b60362168c1d1f58fe775974b70ac54bbfd57834802b892eb4509e`.
+The command exited 0 with `passed=true`. The original power values (`false` and
+`5.000000`) were read back, battery remained 99%, the recovery timer was removed,
+cleanup errors were empty and the run released only its own lock. The private
+full report is `/tmp/framey-post304-exercise/result.json` on the test host.
+
+This exercise covered the sample panel path after the running-context merge. It
+did not observe a nonempty running-game list, a game lifetime callback, Discord
+activity, a worn display or physical controller input. Synthetic native scroll
+again did not move (`scrollTop=0`, no wheel event).

+# Executable script entrypoints: Junk-Store
+
+Junk-Store 1.1.13 (official ID 84) moves **broken → partial**. The exact unmodified
+BSD-3-Clause archive is pinned in the [redacted results](framey-script-entrypoints-2026-10-26.json).
+No ARM64 rebuild or upstream plugin source patch was needed.
+
+Python ZIP extraction drops execute permissions. This archive also publishes its
+shebang scripts as 0644, relying on upstream Decky's recursive permission setup.
+Framey's user service disables that setup. Direct script calls therefore fail.
+The installer now adds **owner execute only** to shebang scripts or ZIP-declared
+executables. It does not restore archive privilege/write bits, grant group/other
+execute, or change unmarked data permissions. Archive validation and installation
+blocks remain in place. Existing installations need update/reinstall for repair.
+
+The upstream comparison is Decky 3.3.0's
+[permission setup](https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader/blob/v3.3.0/backend/decky_loader/browser.py)
+and [Linux implementation](https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader/blob/v3.3.0/backend/decky_loader/localplatform/localplatformlinux.py).
+Static inspection found 28 accepted official archives with shebang or declared
+executable members. This is shared installer coverage, not 28 functional claims.
+
+## Before and after in an isolated real backend
+
+Both runs used the exact official plugin and published Decky 3.3.0 amd64, with no
+network/devices/capabilities, a read-only root and private temporary home/tmp.
+The only difference was the production installer before/after this change.
+
+| Check | Before | After |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `scripts/get-json.py` | 0644 | 0744 |
+| `execute_action(init, init)` | inner `Type:Error`, empty output / JSON parse error | `Type:Success`, `Initialized` |
+| `execute_action(init, InitActions)` | inner `Type:Error` | `Type:ActionSet`, `MainMenu`, four actions |
+
+The legacy wrapper reports `success:true` even for the failing inner error.
+Startup log text alone is also insufficient: the baseline emits initialized/started
+messages despite those errors. Both private containers were removed.
+
+## Real ARM64 Frame and local Chromium
+
+Under the shared headset lock, the patched production installer installed the
+official archive into a private, bounded, removable Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 user service
+on Frame OS 0.5.6. The service was not enabled. Legendary was absent before and
+after; no dependency installer, login, download, launch or websocket command ran.
+
+The production receipt-bound bridge called the actual backend through live Steam
+CEF. Static action sets, main-menu content and the Epic action set returned real
+results. `get_websocket_port` returned 8765. Explicit `init/init` success was tested
+in the isolated amd64 backend; it was not explicitly invoked in the final Frame run.
+
+Local Chromium ran the actual Framey host and official frontend in an opaque
+iframe, relaying only allowed static calls to that ARM64 backend. Main menu,
+Games → static Epic tab, Back and fresh close/reopen passed. Steam library reads
+used the production receipt-bound bridge; only counts were retained. Outer
+status/install responses were fixtures, and the deployed headset HTTP endpoint
+was not tested.
+
+The About route still crashes on missing `local_per_client_data.installed` in
+the detached app overview. Epic game-list and RSS calls were deliberately denied;
+their loading/error views do not demonstrate backend failure. Dependency
+installation, login, game operations, RSS, Steam shortcut mutation and worn VR
+remain unverified. This supports **partial**, not works.
+
+Three temporary attempts were cleaned, including an initial Steam reinjection
+readiness failure and a test-relay omission of the library endpoint. A fresh
+shared-lock audit found all three services inactive/unloaded (PID 0), with their
+private bases, unit files and archives absent. Normal managed Decky/panel services
+stayed inactive; final battery was 99 → 100 while charging. No power-setting action
+ran. The audit lock was released, and local relays/browser tabs were closed.
+
+## Verification
+
+- Python suite: 1,628 tests, 16 skipped, no failures; store suite: 19 passed.
+- Site suite: 18 passed. Two new regression tests failed before the fix.

+# Shotty Python compatibility, 26 October 2026
+
+The exact official Shotty 0.1.0 archive (store ID 53, SHA-256 `ab7f6618b264a0cb766525e788cef6c3e1478c0fef98a701225e5e8af441e2fe`) imports `click.get_app_dir` at startup but never calls it. 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.

+# Simple Timer lifecycle on Frame
+
+The exact official Simple Timer 1.0.0 archive (store ID 96, SHA-256
+`973d927e9d9a1feec04679c564af7e389a729b6735d2a988ffc2cb46ce4eb312`)
+now qualifies as **works for silent in-panel session timers** after a managed
+update/reinstall. The upstream BSD license and API1 manifest remain unchanged.
+[Redacted observations](framey-simple-timer-2026-10-26.json) accompany this report.
+
+## Reproduced failures and repair
+
+The unmodified archive, discovered and called by the actual published Decky
+3.3.0 loader, fails cancel before its first timer and expired-deadline startup
+with an annotation-only `timer_task` attribute. Cancel leaves `timer_end` saved,
+so canceled timers resume after restart. Starting a replacement leaves the first
+task alive; it still sends its own completion event.
+
+The managed installer repairs only this exact ID/digest/folder. Lifecycle state
+is initialized before startup cancellation. A lock and cancellation/join give one
+task ownership of the timer. Explicit cancel and completion clear the persisted
+deadline. Backend unload stops the task while preserving an active deadline;
+startup resumes that exact deadline without duplicating recent timers. Late
+expiry emits its silent notice without canceling itself midway. Older installed
+copies remain partial until their receipt includes `simple-timer-lifecycle`.
+
+## Verification
+
+- **Actual published Decky 3.3.0, isolated native amd64:** production managed
+  install, API1 discovery and public instance RPC/events; fresh cancel,
+  replacement suppression, one completion, clearing persisted end, active
+  restart preserving deadline/recents, canceled restart and expired restart.
+  A separate unmodified-archive case must reproduce the original failures.
+  The same gate runs on native ARM64 CI; this report does not preclaim its result.
+- **Real Frame ARM64, Frame OS 0.5.6:** the same lifecycle assertions through
+  Steam CEF's existing `DeckyBackend`, with a bounded private Decky 3.3.0 user
+  service and private settings. No plugin class was manually instantiated.
+- **Local Chromium:** actual headset host and official frontend in a sandbox
+  without `allow-same-origin`; method/event bridge relayed to that real ARM64
+  backend. Begin created a 300-second timer; Cancel returned to idle. A safe
+  five-second backend timer updated the panel and produced the visible silent
+  completion toast. Backend tests verify persisted recents across restart;
+  asynchronous UI recents after reopen were not asserted.
+- **Fake Frame:** exact pinned archive installed and removed through the real
+  HTTP/SSH store harness; execution is stubbed, so this verifies packaging only.
+
+Only private settings and silent timers changed. The shared `/tmp/frame-test.lock`
+was held for execution and then released. Successful run battery was 99 → 99;
+normal Decky remained failed and the headset panel remained inactive as found.
+An independent audit confirmed the private base/unit/archive absent, MainPID 0,
+unit not found and no test client processes. Job-owned CEF event listeners and
+private Chromium were removed. Two earlier test-client attempts were cleaned up:
+one competed with Steam's single Decky websocket; the other lacked a bounded
+quiet-event wait. Battery across those attempts was 100 → 99. These were test
+adapter failures; the final run used CEF and passed.
+
+Sound and suspend are unsupported. Alerts require the plugin panel to remain

+# Tailscale Control read-only backend and Decky PATH, 26 October 2026
+
+The audited archive was official Tailscale Control 0.1.3, store ID 43,
+SHA-256 `06411711b27101d438339000da3d91202d682862710b02ef3ddf2462e642448a`.
+Earlier local Chromium evidence showed its settings panel. This check focused
+on the Frame's CLI lookup; it did not run a live Framey panel RPC.
+
+Each real Frame check acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock` atomically with its own
+random owner, read SteamVR activity and proximity, and released only that
+owner's lock. The headset was in standby. The installed Tailscale CLI wrapper
+resides in `~/.local/bin`, which the systemd user manager did not put in the
+Decky service's inherited `PATH`.
+
+| Check | Result |
+| --- | --- |
+| Exact official backend with the current service PATH | Three read-only status methods returned `None`; `tailscale` was not found. |
+| Same backend in a disposable process with `~/.local/bin` prepended | The read-only methods returned active state, two exit-node entries and 16 device entries. |
+| Bounded transient systemd user unit with the proposed service PATH | Found `tailscale` and completed `tailscale status`. The unit ended inactive, PID 0, `LoadState=not-found`. |
+
+The Frame Control managed Decky unit now sets `PATH` to `~/.local/bin` plus
+standard system directories when installed or updated. The install transaction
+rolls its prior unit back on failure. No Tailscale `up`, `down`, routing or
+exit-node change was run. No persistent test service, headset wake, controller
+input or settings write was used.
+
+This supports CLI discovery and read-only backend data on the real Frame. It
+does not prove the production Framey-to-Decky RPC, connection controls, QR
+asset, worn panel visibility or physical controller usability. Tailscale
+Control remains **partial** in the digest-scoped catalog.
+
+A later independent hourly read-only check found SteamVR activity 3
+(standby), proximity raw 3.0625 and battery 93%. It released its owned lock;
+no worn test was possible and the hourly schedule remains enabled.

+# Shared standalone Toggle contract — 2026-10-27
+
+Framey previously exported `DFL.Toggle` as `ToggleField`. Official standalone
+toggles pass `value`, while ToggleField takes `checked`. A saved true setting
+therefore appeared unchecked, and clicking it could send true again instead of
+turning it off. Toggle now renders a standalone controlled checkbox from
+`value`; ToggleField retains its `checked` contract. Both emit booleans and keep
+disabled controls inert. No official archive or manifest is rewritten.
+
+Nine exact catalog archives use this standalone contract: CSS Loader (7),
+Pause Games (13), AutoFlatpaks (32), DeckyFileServer (60), Syncthing (64),
+Decky LSFG-VK (113), Muon (116), Launch Options (126), and ShadowDeck (129).
+These are affected API consumers, **not nine verified working plugins**.
+Their existing root, native, Steam UI and runtime blockers still apply.
+The catalog records this repair without promoting any status.
+
+## Verification
+
+- The Node regression fails against the old alias: true renders false. It
+  passes with the fix and checks true/false callbacks, disabled behavior and
+  the unchanged ToggleField contract.
+- The pinned, unmodified Pause Games 1.0.3 frontend component renders both
+  persisted exclusion-list states and dispatches only its expected add/remove
+  settings callbacks. This VM fixture does not run effects or process actions.
+- Local Chromium, React 18.3.1 and the production host in an opaque sandboxed
+  iframe pass eight DOM checks: saved true, standalone shape, false/true native
+  clicks and rerenders, external false/true updates, disabled input, and
+  ToggleField. This is a control fixture, not nine end-to-end plugin tests.
+- Actual published Decky 3.3.0 on native amd64 discovers the exact Pause Games
+  archive and uses public API1 instance RPC to save/read true/false settings,
+  add/remove a synthetic exclusion and independently read its private settings
+  file. This is a permanent runtime probe alongside existing backend shims;
+  all eight probes, including historical negative cases, pass. Hosted CI also
+  runs this gate on native ARM64; local ARM64 evidence below is from the Frame.
+- Under the shared headset lock, a bounded, removable private Decky 3.3.0 ARM64
+  user service repeats discovery and those safe settings operations through
+  the normal Steam CEF DeckyBackend bridge. The private file readback matches.
+  The harness never requests pause/resume/kill or suspend operations. Steam's
+  Decky frontend also populated its normal default setting keys during this
+  run; no running-game behavior is claimed.
+- Fake-Frame audit: all 116 archives attempted, 61 installed/removed and 55
+  blocked by existing policy. Full Python suite: 1,659 tests, 16 skipped, OK.
+
+The exact Pause Games archive SHA-256 is
+`4aefdfb0ef25dea9c6d9fd037731c8b99ee8a1be966c2f7d5b0602112ef29f62`.
+The official store refresh still contains 116 entries; all pinned IDs, versions
+and digests are unchanged.
+[Structured results](framey-toggle-2026-10-27.json) include scoped readbacks and
+the nine version/digest pairs.
+
+## Probe retries and cleanup
+
+The first hardware adapter connected directly to Decky's single WebSocket and
+reused a request ID also used by Steam CEF; it received an unrelated cached
+reply. A second adapter retained a CEF connection across Decky's startup reload
+and disconnected. Neither is a successful plugin verification. Both private
+services and files were removed. The successful adapter waits for startup and
+reattaches CEF during discovery, then serializes settings calls through the
+normal DeckyBackend bridge.
+
+All private services, bases and uploaded archives were removed, and the shared
+lock was released. An independent locked audit confirms no matching unit is
+loaded and no private base, unit file or upload remains. Original managed Decky
+and panel states were preserved. Battery stayed 100 → 100 during the successful
+run; no power setting changed.
+
+No plugin gains a works claim. Real process control, other importer backends,
+physical input and worn VR remain unverified. The original independent branch
+had **6 works / 50 partial / 49 broken / 11 N/A**. After merging main's landed
+DeckyFileServer ARM64 support, current totals are **6 works / 51 partial /
+48 broken / 11 N/A**. Its managed-native receipt guard and both runtime probes
+are preserved; its former Toggle display limitation is removed from the current
+catalog reason. The initial verification counts above describe the original
+branch; combined validation is recorded below.
+
+Combined merge validation against main `b963937`: full Python suite passes
+1,663 tests with 16 skips; all ten actual published Decky 3.3.0 native amd64
+probes pass, including Pause Games settings and DeckyFileServer positive/negative
+cases. Generated documentation matches the merged catalog. No hardware rerun
+was needed for these fixture/catalog conflicts.

+# Volume Boost sink controls on the ARM64 Frame
+
+Volume Boost 0.0.7 (official store ID 58) now qualifies as **works for sink
+controls**. The exact official, unmodified Python backend ran in Decky 3.3.0
+ARM64 on Frame OS 0.5.6. Local Chromium rendered its official frontend through
+Framey's existing legacy bridge. Actual control changes reached the Frame's
+default speaker sink, including above-100% gain, with independent Pulse
+readbacks. The sink stayed muted; no audible-output or worn-VR claim is made.
+
+[Digest-pinned observations and cleanup](framey-volume-boost-arm64-2026-10-26.json)
+record both runs. This supersedes the Volume Boost read-only limitation in the
+[previous ARM64 audio check](framey-audio-arm64-2026-10-26.md). No plugin patch,
+native rebuild or new compatibility shim was necessary. Volume Boost's backend
+uses Python and the Frame's existing ARM64 `pactl`; its hard-coded UID 1000
+matches the actual Frame user.
+
+| Local Chromium action | Actual ARM64 result, independently read back |
+| --- | --- |
+| Linked numeric input 125% | Native Pulse channel values 81920 / 81920; plugin reads 125 / 125 |
+| Linked slider click, then ArrowDown | 75% then 74%; native values 49152 / 49152 then 48496 / 48496 |
+| Unlink, set left to 33% | Native values 21626 / 0; plugin reads 33 / 0 |
+| Set right to 67% | Native values 0 / 43909; plugin reads 0 / 67 |
+| Re-link | Official frontend issues a right-only 33% write; native values 0 / 21626 |
+| Close and reopen | New document/session, ready; backend reads and displayed linked value return to the restored 0%; no mount write |
+| Repeat linked numeric 150% with inherited service locale | Native values 98304 / 98304; plugin reads 150 / 150; reopen again reads restored zero |
+
+The test restores the original sink state after **each** write. Therefore the
+separate-channel checks intentionally begin from 0% / 0%, rather than from the
+previous UI value. A right-only re-link request is the published plugin's
+behavior. These checks verify channel selection and preservation of the other
+channel; they do not claim a continuous unmuted listening session. Pulse's
+integer conversion truncates fractional native values; the evidence retains
+those integers rather than replacing them with rounded percentages.
+
+## Runtime and transport
+
+Each run separately acquired the atomic `/tmp/frame-test.lock`; neither stole
+an existing lock. A unique private Decky user service used its own plugin,
+settings and runtime directories, was never enabled, and had an eight-minute
+runtime limit. The upstream ARM64 loader matched GitHub's published SHA-256
+and ELF machine 183. The plugin ZIP matched the official digest.
+
+The local relay served actual `ui/headset.html`, vendored React and
+`framey-host.js`, with exact official frontend bytes in an opaque
+`allow-scripts` iframe. Outer status/install/check responses were fixtures.
+Plugin calls used production `framey_panel.call_method`, including the current
+store receipt, SSH through lxso2, live Steam CEF and `DeckyBackend.call` into the
+actual plugin subprocess. Only the temporary install paths were redirected.
+This does not verify the deployed headset HTTP endpoint or a VR compositor.
+
+The first private service explicitly used `LC_ALL=C`. The second inherited the
+user-service locale without a `LANG` or `LC_ALL` override, matching the
+production service configuration, and repeated actual reads, a 150% write and
+reopen. Zero alone was not accepted as success: upstream returns zero on
+command failure. Every write returned true, both backend channel reads agreed,
+and independent native Pulse readbacks confirmed nonzero changes.
+
+## Bounded muted writes and restoration
+
+The default sink was already muted at native channel values 0 / 0. Before each
+plugin write, a private device-side helper captured the exact sink identity,
+channel values and mute state; persisted recovery state; and started a bounded
+60-second systemd watchdog. It then required a successful mute readback before
+allowing the plugin call. The relay allowed only `get_volume_state` and
+`set_volume_state`, known channels and values from 0 through 150.
+
+After the call, independent `pactl --format=json list sinks` and both plugin
+reads checked the result. In `finally`, the helper restored exact native
+channel values while muted, checked them, restored the original mute state,
+and verified the entire snapshot before removing recovery state and stopping
+its watchdog. No default route, playback, existing stream or power setting was
+changed. Automatic watchdog expiry was armed but not deliberately exercised;
+explicit restoration passed after all seven writes.
+
+Both private Decky services/bases were removed and their locks released.
+Fresh-lock cleanup audits found their Decky and guard units unloaded/inactive
+with PID 0, paths absent, and the exact original sink/mute restored. Battery
+stayed 100 → 100; normal managed Decky and headset-panel services stayed
+inactive. Decky startup reinjects its frontend and can restart Steam CEF.
+
+## Catalog and verification limits
+
+The canonical store catalog and generated table report **4 works / 48 partial /
+53 broken / 11 N/A**. A fresh full official-store fetch at 06:10:58 UTC found
+all 116 IDs, versions and digests unchanged. Historical fake-Frame checks cover
+this exact archive's install/receipt/removal with backend execution stubbed;
+that test was not repeated or relabelled as real-backend evidence.
+
+Audible gain, sound quality, physical speaker output, Bluetooth sinks,
+headset-controller input and worn VR remain unverified. The store row includes
+these limits. This change records new real-backend evidence and updates its
+compatibility classification; it changes no shipped audio implementation.
+
+The full server suite completed 1,626 tests with no failures (16 skips); all
+18 site tests passed. Generated-document consistency and `git diff --check`
+also passed. No implementation change followed those tests.

+# Read-only Framey activity gate, 26 October 2026
+
+At 11:12 UTC, a read-only probe acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock` by atomic
+`mkdir` with a random owner token before reading the Frame. SteamVR
+returned two `vrcmd --stats` rows: performance metrics first and the status
+row second. The status row reported activity level **1**. The original
+`framey-worn-check.py` looked only at row zero and reported unknown activity;
+`framey-vr-check.py` used the same row-zero assumption for its wake gate. The
+fixed gates select the unique status row and fail closed if it is missing,
+duplicated or malformed.
+
+The first locked read found 90% battery, proximity raw 222.25, no active
+managed headset panel service and no managed Decky plugin. A subsequent locked
+read found activity 1 and proximity raw 223.625. No reliable wearer
+confirmation was available. No wake, service install, settings write or input
+was attempted.
+
+While activity was 1, a separate owned-lock read captured four seconds from
+`/dev/video99` into a private 640×360 H.264 MP4. It decoded successfully and
+contained active video imagery. The inspected sample did **not** establish
+room passthrough, Frame Control panel visibility, ProtonDB Badges UI or
+controller interaction. The private recording and decoded frame were removed
+after inspection; no room or media images are committed. Each read released
+only its owner-token lock. The hourly worn-check schedule remains enabled.
+

+# Official Web Browser 1.4.3 frontend follow-up
+
+The exact official Decky store archive for ID 59 is 91,859 bytes and matched
+SHA-256 `1192864fddc5d72550346b8dff02c21d71f0c40a06ac41c4e67bb6220d267f9d`.
+Its legacy bundle calls `deckyFrontendLib.getReactRoot` when attempting to patch
+Steam's main menu and search bar. The prior full-catalog audit recorded
+`getReactRoot is not a function` and initializer failure.
+
+Framey's isolated iframe has no Steam React root. The host now exposes
+`getReactRoot()` with a **null** result, consistent with its existing inert
+`findInReactTree()` lookup. It never returns a fabricated Steam tree or permits
+patching the user's Steam UI. The focused Node host test checks this contract.
+
+A focused local Chromium run used the verified archive through
+`scripts/framey-audit-browser.py`, with every backend method, fetch and
+WebSocket denied. The exact frontend reported `ready=true` with no initializer
+error after 2.5 seconds, and again during a longer ten-second observation.
+It attempted `set_main_tab` and `load`; the audit denied both. Console output
+reported that no Steam window or main-menu root was available. The panel did
+not show a usable browser view in the audited state.
+
+Static inspection of this archive's published Python backend shows
+`set_main_tab()` requesting a Steam GamepadUI CDP tab, then returning a key and
+port for its own WebSocket server. That Steam tab and browser injection path
+are outside Framey's isolated panel. No real plugin backend was executed, no
+browser tab or navigation was verified, and no real Frame or worn-VR check was
+performed for this change. The catalog retains **broken** for this digest; its
+reason and focused observation now distinguish successful initialization from
+the unresolved core browser dependency. The full 116-plugin browser baseline
+still refers to its earlier host commit; this is a one-plugin follow-up.
+
+## Unworn Framey regression gate
+
+The exact code commit `d5e62f643d462b7070f27c2c47b11b4aa9982094` ran
+`scripts/framey-vr-check.py --exercise` under its own shared-lock owner at
+07:26 UTC. Preflight found SteamVR activity 3 (standby), proximity 6.25 and
+battery 100%. The real Decky sample setting saved `enabled=true`, survived a
+fresh iframe, and the quick action read the saved value. A trusted synthetic
+OpenVR pointer, slider value 50, CDP text entry after focus and changed stereo
+compositor hashes passed. The mirror capture SHA-256 was
+`4f0d977fab7c144a3490b12ebefddacf3126db585057eb022006ffdf844a7498`.
+The command exited 0 with `passed=true`; original power settings (`false` and
+`5.000000`) were read back, battery ended at 99%, the recovery timer was
+removed, cleanup errors were empty and only its own lock was released. The
+private full report is `/tmp/framey-web-browser-vr-d5e62f6/result.json` on the
+test host. This verifies the sample-panel regression path, not the official
+Web Browser plugin or a worn headset. Synthetic native scroll still did not

+# Interactive Framey worn-check proximity gate, 26 October 2026
+
+The interactive `scripts/framey-worn-check.py` already required an explicit
+operator wear confirmation and a unique `/tmp/frame-test.lock` owner before
+reading SteamVR activity. It did not read proximity. This change makes its
+locked preflight read the raw proximity sensor and stop before its interaction
+window when the reading is missing or invalid. It checks activity, proximity
+and battery again before input. The same owned-lock cleanup applies on failure.
+
+The focused local gate suite passes 9/9 tests, including missing and nonfinite
+proximity, proximity disappearing between reads, metrics preceding the SteamVR status row,
+standby, low battery, no operator confirmation and a foreign lock. No headset
+input was sent for this change. A separate owner-locked read-only Frame check
+found SteamVR activity 3 (standby), proximity raw 3.0625 and battery 93%; it
+released its lock without a worn test.
+
+The raw proximity value is not calibrated as proof of wear. The operator's
+in-person confirmation remains required; awake activity, proximity and trusted
+synthetic input alone do not prove wearer-visible pixels or physical controller
+usability. The hourly worn-check schedule remains enabled.

+# Intel Mac acceptance test: official v0.4.39, 26 October 2026
+
+Tested on the physical **MacBookAir9,1, Intel Core i3-1000NG4 1.10 GHz,
+8 GB RAM, macOS 15.7.7 (24G720), x86_64**. Job `1vbt29ptkw` repeated the
+[earlier release test](mac-v0439-2026-10-26.md) and added ZIP verification,
+native menu actions and Open at Login persistence. The app under test was
+the official [v0.4.39 release](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/releases/tag/v0.4.39),
+tag commit `fd0b0a946f11d92fd1cc480cd9d1a83be795bf71`.
+It was not rebuilt or patched. Current source validation is reported separately.
+
+## Download and clean DMG installation
+
+Downloaded both Intel assets and `SHA256SUMS` from that exact tag with
+`gh release download`. Independently calculated SHA-256 values matched the
+same-release manifest:
+
+| Asset | Bytes | SHA-256 |
+|---|---:|---|
+| `Frame-Control-mac-x64.dmg` | 169,230,398 | `f47b5a188b5090f97a72467394d4fa65ccc73fe3169a6276e2a32cab5c8019d8` |
+| `Frame-Control-mac-x64.zip` | 169,141,014 | `bafc1aec0c11c1fae097dbe1e4b585ebc13a0f8eaf1b249717c14d78811e08d7` |
+
+Mounted the DMG read-only with `hdiutil attach -readonly -nobrowse` and
+unpacked the ZIP separately. For each app, `file` reported
+`Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64` and `lipo -info` reported:
+
+```text
+Non-fat file: …/Contents/MacOS/Frame Control is architecture: x86_64
+```
+
+The DMG's bundled Python and `frame-mac-view` are also x86_64; `adb` is
+universal with x86_64 and arm64 slices. Both fresh bundles passed
+`codesign --verify --deep --strict --verbose=2`. Signing is ad hoc, with no
+TeamIdentifier. This verifies the resource seal, not Apple notarization.
+
+Preserved the existing `/Applications/Frame Control.app` in the task's
+temporary directory. An initial `ditto` overlay retained that installation's
+extra Python bytecode caches and failed signature verification. Moved that
+copy aside and copied the DMG app into an empty destination. The clean copy
+passed `codesign --verify --strict`; the release bundles themselves passed.
+The final installed app is the clean DMG copy.
+
+## Gatekeeper: tested fallback, incomplete first-open coverage
+
+The CLI downloads had **no `com.apple.quarantine` attribute**. This Air had
+already launched the same app in the earlier job, so it is not a pristine
+first-install trust environment. A controlled probe added only this app's
+quarantine attribute (`0083;<timestamp>;FrameControlIntelReleaseTest;`).
+That is synthetic metadata, not a Safari or Chrome download.
+
+The overlaid copy's first `open` returned 0 and later produced a translocated
+app process. After making the clean copy, a quarantined `open` returned:
+
+```text
+The application cannot be opened, error=Error Domain=NSPOSIXErrorDomain Code=16 "Resource busy"
+```
+
+Assessment of the clean copy with `spctl --assess --type execute -vv` did
+not finish within 15 seconds. No readable Gatekeeper warning was captured;
+the controlled probe is **inconclusive**. Do not interpret `open` returning
+0 as proof of passing Gatekeeper. Native screen capture was unavailable.
+
+The exact app-specific fallback used for the verified clean copy was:
+
+```sh
+xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Frame Control.app"
+```
+
+The installed app then launched successfully. No global Gatekeeper setting
+was changed. For a normal user, verify the Intel download, mount the DMG,
+drag the app to Applications and open it. If macOS blocks it, Apple's
+documented route is **System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway →
+Open**, after the initial attempt. **Right-click Open and Open Anyway were
+not exercised in this run**; neither is certified here. The Terminal command
+above is the fallback actually exercised, limited to this trusted app.
+
+## Official native app checks
+
+Controlled runs disabled telemetry and used a task-local server data
+directory. A temporary loopback CDP port inspected the actual Electron
+renderer and its real `window.frameApp` bridge. This was not a web-only
+substitute. Native menu actions used Apple's Accessibility API through an
+existing authorized SSH session; no Accessibility grant was added. Direct
+System Events/AppleScript calls timed out. The API route is why this run can
+verify native menu actions that the earlier evidence left untested.
+
+| Check | Result |
+|---|---|
+| Launch | **Pass.** Native window, real IPC bridge and bundled Python server loaded. Version remained 0.4.39 |

+## Headset: read-only checks and one temporary transfer
+
+`frame.local` resolved, but its LAN port 22 returned **No route to host**.
+The Tailscale endpoint answered TCP 22, but direct SSH and the app refused
+the Air's stale/missing host trust. No pin was replaced to bypass that
+failure. Used the already-pinned `saphid@lxso2` coordinator relay and its
+trusted `frame` SSH connection instead.
+
+Atomically acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock` on the coordinator and headset
+with owner `intel-v0439-1vbt29ptkw-20261026`. Under those locks:
+
+- Read SteamOS **0.5.6**, variant `vr`, build **20261022.6153909**.
+- Read battery **99%, Not charging**.
+- Read home storage: **996,984,774,656 bytes total**, **769,012,412,416 free**.
+- Listed **7** JPEGs matching Steam's
+  `userdata/*/760/remote/*/screenshots/*.jpg`; no screenshots were copied.
+- Sent a **54-byte** payload originating on this Mac through the relay into
+  an exclusively created `/tmp/intel-v0439-1vbt29ptkw-20261026-…/` folder.
+  Its readback SHA-256 matched
+  `82029b7e8b519bac65e43a6e90386a06da9988b23330aa7c48fea0abdfac0a8b`.
+  Deleted the exact file and its temporary folder.
+- Released only matching owned locks. Separate readback confirmed the
+  headset lock was absent immediately after release. A later independent check
+  found the transfer folder absent and coordinator lock absent, while the
+  headset lock had been acquired by another job (`frame-smoke-92bb2294f1d9cd4b7084`);
+  that different owner was left untouched.
+
+This verifies a relay transfer, **not the native app's direct file-transfer
+path**. No existing headset content, installs, services, settings, power
+state or SteamVR state was changed. No wipe or reboot was attempted.
+
+## Bugs, validation and remaining limits
+
+No new Intel-specific product bug was isolated in these runtime checks.
+The earlier v0.4.39 shutdown race already has a merged fix in
+[PR #284](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/284), shipped in
+v0.4.40. This run did not install or validate the v0.4.40 Intel app.
+
+The initial full source suite on system Python 3.9 ran **1,621 tests in
+818.353 seconds**, with **six failed assertions and 20 skips**. These were
+source-test issues, separate from the released native checks:
+
+- The recording fixture's time limit ended with `q`, because macOS Bash 3.2
+  reports read timeout as status 1, the same as EOF. Frame Bash 5 reports a
+  value above 128. Local recording-shell tests now explicitly require Bash 4+.
+- The Foundation XCTest test found `swiftc` but failed `import XCTest`:
+  the active Command Line Tools installation has no XCTest framework.
+  It now checks for the actual framework and skips when unavailable.
+- Two OBS tests (three assertions, including subtests) started 0.15/0.3-second
+  watchdog clocks before the fixture's Python interpreter and signal handler
+  were ready. Fixture startup is now synchronized or separately budgeted;
+  the short stream-stall checks remain. Production watchdog limits did not change.
+- The panel timeout fixture's 4.6-second sleeps were too close to each tool's
+  five-second timeout once process startup was included, causing the wrong
+  failure path. Three-second sleeps still exhaust the 12-second overall
+  deadline before a panel is complete, with margin for process startup.
+
+All four affected modules then passed on this physical Air with the official
+app's bundled Python 3.12: **87 tests, two explicit prerequisite skips,
+37.605 seconds**. Focused native app tests passed **14/14** and website tests
+**18/18**. An isolated Linux checkout of base `741735a` plus the exact four
+test-file changes passed the **full 1,621-test suite, 16 skips, 170.313 seconds**,
+including recording-shell fixtures under modern Bash. No full Mac suite pass
+after these corrections is claimed.
+
+Final native cleanup confirmed the app processes and loopback debug port were
+closed, original preferences restored, Open at Login off, the DMG ejected and
+its installed signature still valid. External test subprocesses had generated
+36 Python bytecode files inside the bundle; removed only those absent from
+the verified clean release before the final signature check. The native app
+uses `-B` itself. The installed desk cleanup tool reported
+only **Finder, Messages and cmux** in front, **zero notifications**, no items
+needing attention and the **display asleep**. The official app remains installed;
+previous copies and raw test logs are retained in `/tmp/frame-control-v0439-intel`.
+The desk hold is released at the end of the task.
+
+Actual login startup, ordinary browser quarantine/first-open override,
+direct app/headset transfer, real OBS audio/video, Mac screen capture,
+headset VR interaction, wearer comfort and controller input remain untested.
+No social post was made. PR #113 was left untouched; merging and releasing
+remain with the lxso2 coordinator.

+# v0.4.41 tagged release, 26 October 2026
+
+The annotated `v0.4.41` tag dereferences to main merge commit `b5d50a8d896f790a94baf4e937db914eab475ed9` from PR #297. The [tagged release workflow](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40271174791) passed its draft, Linux, Windows, Apple Silicon Mac, Intel Mac and checksum jobs. The platform jobs launched the built Linux AppImage, checked the Windows installation and bundled PC Python libraries, and checked Mac bundle architectures. These CI results do not establish a physical Windows or Mac launch.
+
+## Real Frame, exact tag
+
+From an exact tag checkout, `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` acquired its unique owner in `/tmp/frame-test.lock` before reading the headset. Preflight found SteamVR activity 3 (standby) and battery 99%. On Frame OS 0.5.6 build `20261022.6153909`, all **13/13 reserved title steps passed**; the command exited 0, including test title and process cleanup and release of its owned lock. ARM64 and Proton test executables launched. The x86_64 launch step recorded that optional Steam Linux Runtime 4 was **not installed**, so that executable did not actually launch. The private detailed result is `tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T045140Z-20261022.6153909.json` in the exact-tag checkout.
+
+No person wore the headset. This title smoke does not verify active passthrough pixels, wearer-visible panels, physical controller input, official Decky plugin panels, audio output, comfort or VR keyboard use. The separate [unworn Framey sample exercise](framey-scroll-probe-2026-10-26.md) established live sample setting persistence, stereo compositor changes and trusted synthetic OpenVR input; it did not establish a worn result. The hourly worn check remains enabled.
+
+## Downloaded installer and checksum checks
+
+The draft held ten installers plus `SHA256SUMS`, each with a GitHub SHA-256 digest. `scripts/publish-release.sh --dry-run v0.4.41` checked the exact tag and all ten installer digests, regenerated `SHA256SUMS` from those digests and matched its own GitHub digest. A fresh downloaded checksum list independently matched `e7555956aeb9ec3a464081aaafe1ed6762f65a17c04edaa6ea45286f10927109`.
+
+A fresh Linux x86_64 AppImage download matched `5d1f50dc8527faf299f2058c7b5ed19057ec7c81c41449f6ccd44d68e6b4d212`. `scripts/check-appimage-launch.py` launched that exact file under isolated Xvfb: the bundled server answered HTTP 200 with `FrameControl/1`, then stopped. The first local attempt failed at Chromium sandbox startup inside the command sandbox; rerunning the same downloaded file with normal host permissions passed. The release workflow's independent Linux launch also passed.
+
+Fresh Mac ZIP downloads matched GitHub digests: arm64 `84615ec8a0c62481a9f33bae1815d55ec902db9aa9d4bd767fcf9380c3d44d7a`, x64 `2800b749cda98d15207950eca4a6bd205d35f30551f16efd7720b41347edc7ca`. Both contain bundle version 0.4.41; the app executable Mach-O CPU types are arm64 and x86_64 respectively. The physical Mac was unreachable over SSH, so neither tagged ZIP was launched there. The physical Intel Air was also not tested with this tag.
+
+## Publication and updater readback
+
+The final dry run passed with the release notes and hardware limits in the draft. `scripts/publish-release.sh v0.4.41` published [v0.4.41](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/releases/tag/v0.4.41) at 2026-10-26 05:01:47 UTC. GitHub's latest-release API read back `draft=false`, tag `v0.4.41`, ten installers, `SHA256SUMS` and `update.json`. A fresh public latest-download of `update.json` parsed as version 0.4.41 with the stable release page, ten SHA-256 digests and the unworn-test limits in its notes. The release contains the tagged `b5d50a8` commit; no post-tag changes are implied.
+
+The exact-version official Decky catalog in this release is **3 works / 48 partial / 54 broken / 11 N/A**. Volume Mixer and Mixer are works only for the tested per-app silent-stream volume scope on real ARM64 Decky; [audio evidence](framey-audio-arm64-2026-10-26.md) describes the independent Pulse readbacks. Volume Boost remains partial. Audible playback, Bluetooth, other mixer controls and official-plugin worn VR remain unverified.

+# v0.4.42 candidate gate, 26 October 2026
+
+This branch bumps the app and lockfile to 0.4.42. It includes the [v0.4.41 release evidence](v0441-release-2026-10-26.md), the Framey panel lifecycle change in PR #299, the truthful optional-runtime smoke result in PR #300, the physical Intel Mac acceptance and host-test fixes in PR #303 (`fe1da43171883dc31161ff607c6b5a6ddf75f6ef`), and the receipt-bound API guard in PR #301 (`ad57662d40d3bbf6c850dd80ddc275280d389c86`). All 11 hosted checks passed on PR #301's exact head before its normal merge. The combined release candidate's own headset gates passed; exact-head CI and installer previews remain pending.
+
+The exact v0.4.42 candidate at `27af46dd20d7af30dde4c3f954d7b57b94843594` ran `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` under its unique shared lock at 05:40 UTC. Locked preflight found standby activity 3, proximity 6.25 and battery 99%. It recorded **12 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed** on Frame OS 0.5.6 build `20261022.6153909`; ARM64 and Proton test executables launched. The x86_64 launch was skipped because Steam Linux Runtime 4 was not installed. Cleanup passed and the command exited 0. The private detailed result is `tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T054014Z-20261022.6153909.json` in the candidate checkout. The prior PR #300 result is documented [separately](frame-smoke-runtime-skip-2026-10-26.md).
+
+The exact candidate then ran `scripts/framey-vr-check.py --exercise` under a fresh owned lock at 05:41 UTC. Preflight again found activity 3 and battery 99%. The real Decky sample setting saved `enabled=true` and survived a fresh iframe; the quick action read the same value. A trusted synthetic OpenVR pointer reached the panel; the sample slider reached 50 and CDP text entry after OpenVR focus reached `framey-ci`. Stereo compositor hashes changed from `38265343e13f5915869c9622ab1ceda7c31ab2e9b050f44564cfb9b6dc9f6e6d` to `64cc4c6f865bb8b2f756632c922d17dee12af40d480171586f2e9a51797b83e6`; the mirror capture hash was `165289dca9ad2bd895eb544f5be5d5fa2db7d2f635a927ac68a0c74267f69ee2`. The exercise exited 0 with `passed=true`, battery 99% afterward, original power values restored (`false` / `5.000000`), recovery timer removed, no cleanup errors and its own lock released. Its private full result is `/tmp/framey-v0442-exercise/result.json` on the test host. Synthetic scroll events left `scrollTop=0` and produced no wheel events. No person wore the Frame; physical controller interaction, official plugin VR panels, optical readability, VR keyboard and comfort remain unverified. The earlier [receipt-guard exercise](framey-receipt-live-2026-10-26.md) is separate evidence.
+
+The release tag and published installers do not exist at this candidate stage. Publication remains gated on this combined head's exact-head CI, then tagged installer checksums, package checks and public updater readback. The 116 exact-version Decky catalog remains **3 works / 48 partial / 54 broken / 11 N/A**; the two additional works claims are restricted to tested per-app silent-stream volume control.

That test used synthetic OpenVR input and a repository sample, not the official Web Browser plugin or a person wearing the headset.

+# v0.4.44 candidate gate, 26 October 2026
+
+This candidate starts from main commit
+`c50f96510fdb42a2aee227436a04c0cfe8817919`, which contains PR #312's
+Framey scroll buttons and PR #313's read-only installed-app metadata projection.
+It also carries the documentation-only v0.4.43 release evidence from PR #314.
+The app and lockfile are bumped to 0.4.44. No compatibility label changes:
+the exact-version official Decky catalog remains **4 works / 49 partial /
+52 broken / 11 N/A**. Junk-Store's About and Dependencies pages now render in
+the local Chromium test with its actual ARM64 backend; the plugin remains partial.
+
+## Real Frame checks on the combined code
+
+At 08:37 UTC, `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` ran on that main commit under its own
+`/tmp/frame-test.lock` owner. Locked preflight found SteamVR activity 3
+(standby), proximity 6.25 and battery 99%. On Frame OS 0.5.6 build
+`20261022.6153909`, ARM64 and Proton executables launched; the optional x86_64
+launch was skipped because Steam Linux Runtime 4 is absent. The result was
+**12 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed**. It removed its test titles, exited 0 and
+released its owned lock. The private result is
+`tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T083719Z-20261022.6153909.json` on the test
+host.
+
+At 08:45 UTC, `scripts/framey-vr-check.py --exercise` ran the same code under
+a separate unique shared-lock owner, beginning in standby (activity 3,
+proximity 6.3125, battery 99%). Synthetic native OpenVR clicks on the new
+**Scroll plugin down/up** buttons moved a temporary sample region 0 → 120 → 0.
+The sample setting save/reopen, quick action, slider, text and compositor-change
+checks passed. Native synthetic wheel attempts still produced no event or
+movement. Cleanup removed test services and its power watchdog, restored the
+original `false` / `5` power values, read battery 99%, and released its lock
+with no errors. The private report is
+`/tmp/framey-scroll-postmerge-direct-20261026/result.json` on the test host.
+This is an unworn sample panel check. It does not prove physical controller
+scrolling, optical readability or an official-plugin panel in VR.
+
+## Publication boundary
+
+The version-bumped release branch also ran `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` after its
+normal merge of PR #314's documentation. At 08:59 UTC, its locked preflight
+found activity 3, proximity 6.3125 and battery 97%. The result was again
+**12 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed** on the same Frame OS build; ARM64 and
+Proton launches passed, while the optional x86 launch was skipped for the
+missing Steam Linux Runtime 4. Owned test title/process cleanup passed, the
+command exited 0, and its lock was released. The private result is
+`tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T085951Z-20261022.6153909.json` on the test
+host. This evidence-only paragraph is the sole change after that smoke.
+
+PR #313's own actual ARM64 backend/library test is documented in
+[installed-context evidence](framey-installed-context-2026-10-26.md). Its
+dependency installation, login, game operations, RSS and optional websocket
+remain unverified. The candidate still needs exact-head CI, tagged builds,
+ten installer digests with `SHA256SUMS`, downloaded package checks, publisher
+dry run and public updater readback before publication. A worn check requires
+activity, proximity and reliable wearer confirmation; none was available, so
+the hourly schedule stays enabled.

+# v0.4.44 tagged release, 26 October 2026
+
+The annotated `v0.4.44` tag dereferences to main merge commit
+`37e25e62ace388ce032f47d08398c26ea8540fdb` from PR #315. The app and
+lockfile both report 0.4.44. [Post-merge main checks](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40298400256)
+passed all seven jobs, including iOS and fake Frame end-to-end tests. The
+[tagged release workflow](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40299460805)
+passed its draft, Linux, Windows, Apple Silicon Mac, Intel Mac and checksum
+jobs. The tagged Linux build ran the AppImage under isolated Xvfb; this does
+not verify a physical display or headset.
+
+## Frame and package gates
+
+The [candidate evidence](v0444-candidate-2026-10-26.md) records a shared-lock
+real Frame smoke on the version-bumped candidate: **12 passed / 1 optional x86
+launch skipped / 0 failed**, with owned cleanup and lock release. The x86
+launch was skipped because Steam Linux Runtime 4 is absent. The candidate
+also records an unworn sample panel exercise: synthetic OpenVR clicks moved a
+temporary scroll region down and back, while a synthetic native wheel did
+not scroll. No physical controller or wearer-visible result follows from it.
+The final candidate edit was evidence only, and the merge commit added no
+runtime changes.
+
+The draft contained ten installers and `SHA256SUMS`. Every installer had a
+GitHub SHA-256 digest. A freshly downloaded `SHA256SUMS` listed exactly those
+ten names and matching digests; its downloaded bytes matched GitHub's digest
+`072f8084d6f9f145f4a58457d10f54390b50d11288bece42f6d801a356a69b1c`.
+After the release notes were attached, `scripts/publish-release.sh --dry-run
+v0.4.44` passed the remote tag, ten installer and checksum gates.
+
+Freshly downloaded packages passed these independent checks:
+
+| Package | Result |

+# v0.4.45 candidate gate, 26 October 2026
+
+The candidate starts from main commit
+`f88e2ed209167a836282a969a71df4c897e658a8`, after PR #316 bound
+Framey chunk URLs to installed store receipts and PR #317 fixed shared Decky
+activation and confirmation controls. PR #319 also added a bounded retry to
+the fake Frame test image after Valve's ARM64 package server repeatedly
+truncated downloads. The app and lockfile are bumped to 0.4.45. The official
+116-plugin catalog remains **4 works / 49 partial / 52 broken / 11 N/A**.
+AlarMe remains partial: its silent timer, preset and stopwatch paths were
+exercised with the official ARM64 backend, while sound, reminders, sleep
+controls, closed-panel notifications and worn VR were not verified.
+
+## Locked real Frame smoke
+
+At 10:26 UTC, `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` ran on that combined main commit after
+atomically acquiring its own `/tmp/frame-test.lock`. Read-only preflight found
+SteamVR activity 3 (standby), proximity 6.3125 and battery 95%. On Frame OS
+0.5.6 build `20261022.6153909`, ARM64 and Proton test titles installed,
+launched and were removed. The optional x86_64 title installed and was
+removed, but its launch was skipped because Steam Linux Runtime 4 is absent.
+The result was **12 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed**. Owned process and title
+cleanup passed, the command exited 0 and released its lock. The private
+detailed report is
+`tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T102653Z-20261022.6153909.json` in the
+test checkout.
+
+## Unworn Framey panel exercise
+
+At 10:29 UTC, `scripts/framey-vr-check.py --exercise` ran the same combined
+main commit under a separate random shared-lock owner. It began in standby
+with proximity 6.3125 and battery 95%. The temporary managed panel, Decky
+service and repository sample passed the shipped host's setting save and
+fresh-iframe reopen, quick action, slider and text checks. A trusted
+synthetic OpenVR pointer reached the panel. The scroll buttons moved a
+temporary test region **0 → 120 → 0**; synthetic native wheel input still
+produced no wheel event or movement. The stereo compositor image changed and
+the `/dev/video99` mirror snapshot contained varied, nonblack pixels. This
+single mirror image does not establish moving passthrough content or what a
+wearer sees. The direct overlay image read returned error 24 and zero size,
+so it is not used as texture evidence.
+
+The private report and room-bearing images are in the test host's temporary
+output folder. Reported hashes are stereo before
+`84fe777535870c54cb381bbee3223684d1e0e4f2e6626e6d74ee902a4eec9c1b`,

+and mirror
+`0769bbc45bd37266cc9ad80154cbd8a44ae3e1577cfa0d419e6af012afbf0fb4`.
+No raw image is committed.
+
+The exercise exited 0 with no cleanup errors, removed its temporary services
+and power recovery timer, restored and read back the original
+`power.pauseCompositorOnStandby=false` and
+`power.turnOffScreensTimeout=5`, found battery 95% and released only its lock.
+Its immediate post-run activity was 0 after the temporary wake. A separate
+locked read-only check at 10:31 UTC found activity **3 standby**, proximity
+6.3125, battery 95%, no cleanup errors, and released its lock.
+
+The sample is not an official plugin. This exercise does not test the new
+receipt-bound chunk path on real hardware or show AlarMe inside VR. Backend
+registration, synthetic pointer delivery and changing compositor pixels do
+not prove physical-controller or wearer-visible usability. No wearer
+confirmation was available, so `scripts/framey-worn-check.py` was not run;
+the hourly worn-headset schedule remains enabled.
+
+## Publication boundary
+
+The version-bumped candidate commit `59ea093` also ran
+`scripts/frame-smoke.sh` under its own shared-lock owner at 10:34 UTC. Its
+locked preflight again found activity 3 standby, proximity 6.3125 and

+so no wake, controller input or interactive worn-check script ran.

+lines regenerated from GitHub metadata byte for byte; its digest was

+The [candidate evidence](v0447-candidate-2026-10-26.md) records a locked
+exact-version real Frame smoke: **12 passed / one optional x86 launch skipped /
+zero failed**, with owned cleanup and lock release. The x86 launch needs Steam
+Linux Runtime 4, which was absent. The headset was in standby and no wearer was
+confirmed, so the interactive worn-check script was not run. No panel or
+physical-controller claim follows from the smoke.
+
+The draft contained exactly ten installers and `SHA256SUMS`, each with a
+GitHub SHA-256 digest. An independently downloaded `SHA256SUMS` matched a
+fresh ten-line list regenerated from GitHub asset metadata byte for byte;
+its SHA-256 was

+`scripts/publish-release.sh --dry-run v0.4.47` passed the tag, installer,
+checksum, and update-manifest gates after release notes were attached.

+and compared its installed resources with the unpacked build, and tested its
+packaged Python and native PC libraries.
+
+An earlier [release-PR preview run](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40352797572/attempts/1)
+was not a passing gate: its Apple Silicon Mac build was cancelled and its
+checksum job was skipped. [Attempt 2](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40352797572/attempts/2)
+completed all four preview installer builds successfully. Publication used the
+separate exact-tag workflow above, whose six jobs all succeeded.
+
+The draft had exactly ten installers and `SHA256SUMS`, each with a GitHub
+SHA-256 digest. An independently downloaded `SHA256SUMS` matched a fresh
+ten-line list generated from GitHub's asset metadata byte for byte. Both

+After attaching the final release notes,

+installer digests, checksum asset and update-manifest checks.
+`scripts/publish-release.sh v0.4.48` published the release at
+**21:53:29 UTC**. GitHub's latest-release API read back tag `v0.4.48`,
+`draft=false`, `prerelease=false`, ten installers, `SHA256SUMS` and
+`update.json`. Immediately after publication, a fresh public latest-download
+of `update.json` reported version 0.4.48, the release page, ten hashed
+installers and the worn VR limit in its notes. This is historical evidence,
+not the current update-channel state.
+
+## Withdrawn after a real Decky regression was confirmed
+
+The all-green release gate did not include Music Control's actual Decky 3.3.0
+legacy class calling convention. [PR #338](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/338)
+reproduced a regression in the #335 digest-scoped Music Control 1.1.7 install
+shim: it removes explicit `self` from calls that the real legacy runtime needs,
+so player discovery fails with `_get_dbus_env() missing 1 required positional
+argument: 'self'`. The earlier fixture had instantiated `Plugin()` and missed
+this behavior. A passing CI run therefore did not prove this plugin path worked.
+
+At **22:01:20 UTC**, v0.4.48 was returned to draft and the previously green
+v0.4.47 was marked latest. The v0.4.48 tag and build artifacts were preserved;
+no tag or installer was deleted. The preserved draft's notes now begin with a
+withdrawal notice. GitHub's latest-release API and a fresh public
+`releases/latest/download/update.json` now both point to **v0.4.47** with ten
+hashed installers. Existing v0.4.48 installations do not auto-downgrade.
+The repair in #338 merged at `04cde721c862c80a18dad17c2aab0c86ca8d3082`.
+It requires green post-merge main checks, a new release candidate and all
+release gates before any replacement version is offered. An app update alone
+does not rewrite the bad installed plugin shim: affected users need an explicit
+managed plugin update or remove/reinstall after the repair ships.
+
+The [candidate smoke](v0448-candidate-2026-10-26.md) on the real Frame passed
+**12 / one optional x86_64 launch skipped / zero failed**. The optional launch
+needed Steam Linux Runtime 4, which was absent; no x86_64 headset launch was
+claimed. Owned test titles and processes were removed, the lock was released,
+and a fresh locked check found standby and no test-title leftovers. A later
+read-only locked check found SteamVR activity 3 (standby), proximity raw
+3.0625 and battery 100%, then released its own lock. No wearer was confirmed,
+so neither the worn-check script nor physical controller input was run.
+Official-plugin wearer visibility, controller use, VR keyboard, optical comfort
+and physical launch of these exact Mac/Windows installers remain unverified.

+## Publication and real Frame scope
+
+The [candidate evidence](v0449-candidate-2026-10-26.md) records a unique-lock
+real Frame smoke on the version-bumped source: **12 passed, one optional
+x86_64 launch skipped, zero failed**, followed by an independent locked audit
+with no test-title folders or processes. The optional runtime was absent; no
+x86_64 launch is claimed. SteamVR stayed in standby, no wearer was confirmed,
+and neither a worn test nor physical controller check was run.
+
+`scripts/publish-release.sh --dry-run v0.4.49` passed the exact main, native
+Decky and tagged release job gates, ten installer hashes, regenerated
+`SHA256SUMS`, draft notes and update manifest. The real publisher repeated
+those gates, attached `update.json`, and published
+[v0.4.49](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/releases/tag/v0.4.49) at
+**23:25:45 UTC**. GitHub's latest-release API returned `draft=false`,
+`prerelease=false`, ten installers, `SHA256SUMS` and `update.json`. A fresh
+public latest-download of `update.json` reported version 0.4.49, the correct
+page, ten hashed assets, the v0.4.48 repair note and the worn-VR limit.
+The v0.4.48 release remains a withdrawn draft; its notice points to v0.4.49.
+Existing v0.4.48 installations do not auto-downgrade, and affected installed
+Music Control plugins need managed Update or Remove and reinstall.

+# v0.4.50 candidate gate, 27 October 2026
+
+The version bump at `a160043` follows the merged Windows panel-response repair
+[#356](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/356) and the Framey changes
+[#353](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/353),
+[#354](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/354),
+[#355](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/355),
+[#357](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/357),
+[#358](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/358), and
+[#359](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/359).
+The exact DeckyFileServer catalog entry is **partial**; the shared Toggle fix
+does not promote any plugin status. Worn VR and physical controller behavior
+remain unverified.
+
+## Locked real Frame smoke
+
+Early `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` attempts exited before any headset read or test
+action because lxso2's Tailnet route was down and lxso1 lacked the authorized
+SSH key and pinned host record. No lock was taken by those attempts. The final
+run kept lxso2's existing private key and pinned Frame host key end to end,
+using lxso1 only as a TCP relay. A task-owned localhost tunnel reached the
+devkit endpoint after the runner acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock`; no global
+SSH, network or security setting was changed.
+
+At **02:25:14 UTC**, `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` ran from candidate commit
+`fcae5d6` on Frame OS **0.5.6**, build `20261022.6153909`. Its locked
+read-only preflight found SteamVR activity **3 (standby)**, proximity raw
+**3.25** and battery **100%**. The result was **12 passed / one optional
+x86_64 launch skipped / zero failed**. ARM64 and Windows/Proton test titles
+installed, launched and were removed. The x86_64 title installed and was
+removed, but Steam Linux Runtime 4 was absent, so no x86_64 launch is claimed.
+Both the initial leftover sweep and final owned cleanup passed; the runner
+released only its lock. The private result is
+`/tmp/frame-control-v0450-smoke-results/2026-10-27T022514Z-20261022.6153909.json`
+(SHA-256 `7b8d88aafb4459bf882edeb10f65c021c5aa25ad9ed2755faf04e3b4a95c1632`).
+
+A separate read-only audit acquired a fresh unique lock after the smoke. It
+found activity **3**, proximity raw **3.25**, battery **100%**, no exact reserved
+`fc_smoke_*` or `fc-smoke-*` title directories or metadata, and no processes
+owned by those paths. That audit released its own lock. The local tunnel was
+stopped; the isolated lxso1 checkout and temporary SSH files were removed.
+There was no wearer confirmation, wake command or worn interaction test.
+
+## Remaining release gates
+
+The candidate needs green exact-head PR CI, e2e, native amd64/ARM64 Decky
+runtime checks and all four installer previews. After the candidate merges,
+its exact main commit needs green CI and e2e. The tagged release then needs
+every installer build, ten assets, matching checksums, release verification,
+independent package checks and publisher dry run. A failed, cancelled, skipped,
+pending or unverified release gate holds publication. The current published
+release remains v0.4.49.

+# v0.4.50 tagged release verification, 27 October 2026
+
+The annotated `v0.4.50` tag dereferences to merged main commit
+`2797212d8c95311deb8ba73043d0f90ba10bc962`. Its tree exactly matched
+the reviewed [candidate PR #360](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/360)
+head `dab13fa8763b4f836cd49d398d152124655ea8dc`. The candidate includes
+the Framey and Windows changes listed in the public release notes and the
+publisher gate that checks every workflow run attempt.
+
+## Exact commit and tagged build gates
+
+- [Main checks](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40440862876)
+  completed successfully on the tag commit: seven of seven jobs, including
+  e2e, iOS, Windows, macOS, Linux and the aggregate gate.
+- [Native Decky runtime](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40440862867)
+  completed successfully on that commit: AMD64 and ARM64 actual Decky 3.3.0
+  discovery and safe probes.
+- An exact-main [installer preview](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40441532929)
+  built Windows, Linux, Apple Silicon Mac and Intel Mac installers successfully
+  before tagging. Its draft and checksum jobs were inapplicable to the manual
+  preview and skipped by their tag-only conditions; they were not release gates.
+- The [exact-tag release workflow](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40442228066)
+  then passed all six jobs on its first attempt: draft, four platform builds,
+  and checksums. No tagged job failed, was cancelled, skipped or overridden.
+
+The draft contained exactly ten installer assets and `SHA256SUMS` before
+publication. Every installer was independently downloaded by GitHub asset ID,
+one file at a time. Its downloaded size and SHA-256 matched GitHub's asset
+metadata and the downloaded `SHA256SUMS`; the latter's SHA-256 was
+`85383104a8f08f49ffde24ac867f9c2ead41951e602600a9d22d58bc19bf06f5`.
+The [sanitized audit result](v0450-assets-2026-10-27.json) records all ten
+names, sizes, hashes and package checks. The audit also checked both Mac ZIP
+CRCs and bundle version `0.4.50`, both DMG UDIF trailers, the Windows ZIP
+CRC and PE installer header, both AppImage ELF architectures, and both DEB
+version and architecture fields. The Windows NSIS installer itself has a
+32-bit PE launcher; tagged Windows CI installed its x64 payload and checked
+packaged resources and Python libraries.
+
+The independently downloaded Linux x86_64 AppImage had SHA-256
+`d2196b9a50d0777203e60721dd19c6edbb5c18a7639148f0a496d420e231b053`.
+Its first local launch exited inside the workspace sandbox before the server
+answered. The same bytes then passed outside that sandbox under isolated Xvfb:
+HTTP 200 with `FrameControl/1`, followed by a stopped server. The launcher
+used a temporary profile and disabled telemetry and update checks. Tagged
+Linux CI also launched its own built AppImage. No physical Mac or Windows
+launch of these exact installers was performed.
+
+## Real Frame and publication
+
+The [candidate evidence](v0450-candidate-2026-10-27.md) records a unique-lock
+real Frame smoke on the version-bumped source: **12 passed, one optional
+x86_64 launch skipped, zero failed**. Steam Linux Runtime 4 was absent, so no
+x86_64 launch is claimed. A separate fresh-lock cleanup audit found no owned
+test title directories, metadata or processes; both locks were released.
+SteamVR activity was 3 (standby), proximity raw 3.25 and battery 100%.
+There was no wearer confirmation, wake command or worn interaction test.

+`scripts/publish-release.sh --dry-run v0.4.50` passed the exact main,
+native runtime and tagged release jobs, all ten installer hashes, regenerated
+`SHA256SUMS`, draft notes and update-manifest checks. The real publisher
+repeated those gates, attached `update.json`, and published
+[v0.4.50](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/releases/tag/v0.4.50) at

 This table and both store views use [`ui/framey-compatibility.json`](../ui/framey-compatibility.json). Results apply only to the exact store ID, version and SHA-256. A changed digest/version is **unverified**. Regenerate this document with `python3 scripts/framey-compatibility-doc.py`; use `--check` in review.

 - **Works** requires verified useful plugin behavior with its real backend. Read the reason for the verified scope and remaining limits; it does not imply worn-VR verification.
 - **Partial** means only a subset or a local fixture scope was verified, often just frontend/settings initialization. The remaining backend/device functionality is unverified; read the reason for the exact scope.

+A [Free Loader duplicate-entry follow-up](evidence/framey-free-loader-duplicates-2026-10-26.md) accepts only byte-identical duplicate ZIP members whose modes differ at most in execute bits. The exact archive passed private local and focused fake-Frame install/remove; its frontend rendered in opaque Chromium and isolated Python settings/empty-deals reads passed with a Decky stub. The earlier full 116-plugin fake-Frame audit blocked this archive before the fix. Actual Decky, feed updates and worn VR remain unverified.

 The current published digests are pinned in the JSON; if the store changed, retain/download those exact archives for reproduction. Audit downloads permit larger ZIPs for inspection; production installer limits remain 50 MiB ZIP / 150 MiB unpacked / 30 MiB per member.

-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. Volume Boost stays partial: default-sink reads matched, but real sink writes were denied. Audible output, Bluetooth playback and worn VR remain unverified. 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. Junk-Store loading/error views render, but its real backend cannot execute the extracted startup script, so it stays broken. SteamGridDB still requires Steam context-menu internals and DeckSP still fails its published MobX fallback. TabMaster/Junk-Store ran in actual isolated amd64 Decky; no ARM64 or worn-VR result is claimed. Beyond the documented checks, official backends remain unexecuted. The separate VR job proves Frame Control/sample compositor rendering, not any official plugin. No worn-VR official-plugin result is claimed. A [local UI follow-up](evidence/framey-ui-fallbacks-2026-10-26.json) rendered Pause Games and Tailscale Control settings with all backend/network actions denied; it does not verify process pausing or Tailscale changes. A [read-only Steam bridge follow-up](evidence/framey-steam-reads-2026-10-26.json) verified actual Frame country, install folders and system information, plus IsThereAnyDeal's country dropdown in local Chromium. The installed-plugin status was fixture-shaped in that relay; plugin backends stayed denied and the deployed headset HTTP endpoint remains unverified. Earlier focused checks cover [ProtonDB](evidence/framey-browser-2026-10-25.md), [Steam Status/cache](evidence/framey-cache-browser-2026-10-25.md), [Storage Cleaner](evidence/framey-api-v1-browser-2026-10-25.md), and [legacy MusicControl](evidence/framey-legacy-2026-10-25.md).

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.

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.

Apart from the explicitly described LocalSend experiment, ARM64 builds were not attempted: the constraints below remain unresolved.

+A [DeckyFileServer ARM64 follow-up](evidence/framey-fileserver-arm64-2026-10-27.md) ships an offline, digest-checked GPL helper build, corresponding vendored source and a build recipe. Only its exact managed archive can replace the x86 helper and remove its unnecessary root flag. Actual Decky 3.3.0 discovery/RPC and real Frame HTTPS private-fixture listing/download pass; uploads stay disabled. Hostname-DNS failures and empty optional arguments are repaired. Decky 3.3.0 still exposes `decky.HOME`; that call is unchanged. The plugin moves from broken to partial: its frontend advertises HTTP/steamdeck URLs and needs a Steam folder picker. Use HTTPS and a preconfigured directory. Uploads, generated thumbnails and worn VR remain unverified.

+[LocalSend ARM64 build/runtime evidence](evidence/framey-localsend-arm64-2026-10-26.md) covers an isolated real-Frame protocol 2.0 info response from an earlier helper build. [Exact official source matching](evidence/framey-localsend-source-match-2026-10-27.md) now identifies the official helper source and a reproducible ARM64 build from that revision. The exact official x86 backend passed one local private-namespace transfer, and the rebuilt ARM64 helper passed one locked real-Frame private marker transfer. Published Decky 3.3.0 AMD64/ARM64 runtime checks discovered the adapted plugin and read its stopped status and configuration. Only the exact managed 0.4.5 archive can replace its x86 helper on Frame. The actual managed Decky service on Frame, user-facing transfer, local discovery and worn VR remain unverified ([managed adaptation evidence](evidence/framey-localsend-managed-2026-10-27.md)).

+# Silent MPRIS runtime fixture
+
+`player.py` implements the synthetic target used by the
+[Music Control runtime evidence](../../../docs/evidence/framey-mpris-runtime-2026-10-26.md).
+It produces no audio. It requires system Python `dbus`, `gi` and GLib, and writes
+its independent control state to `/tmp/mpris-state.json`.
+
+Run it only in a disposable container with **no network, devices, host home,
+audio or D-Bus mounts**. Create a private session bus listening at
+`/run/user/<container UID>/bus`: both official backends hard-code that path.
+Set `DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS` to that private socket for the fixture. Use a
+private home including `.local/share/Steam/steamui/images`, because the upstream
+plugins create an album-art symlink on startup. Never run these plugins against
+a real user's player during this test: ID111 probes volume automatically.
+
+Install each pinned archive separately through the managed transaction, then
+start the published Decky 3.3.0 loader with private `UNPRIVILEGED_PATH` and
+`PRIVILEGED_PATH`. Do not instantiate the legacy Plugin class: invoke methods
+through Decky's `loader/call_legacy_plugin_method` route with its keyword object.
+The two official entries share the `MusicControl` folder, so cannot coexist.
+This fixture is opt-in and is not imported by ordinary unit tests.
