+# 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

+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
+**4 works / 50 partial / 51 broken / 11 N/A** statuses are unchanged. Deck
+Shelves remains partial; installed settings, home-shelf behavior, worn VR and
+physical controller input remain unverified.

 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.

+## 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.

+```
+
+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.

+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.

+# 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
+was touched for this change.

+# 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.

+# 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

+Frame OS system-command library-path failure. Existing copies installed with
+`music-control-bound-methods` must be removed/reinstalled or explicitly updated.

+## 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.

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
+open. Worn VR, physical controller/keyboard and sleep/wake notification delivery
+remain unverified. A resumed timer is persisted backend behavior, not a promise
+of notification delivery while the panel is closed.

+Earlier local Chromium evidence showed its settings panel. This check focused

+
+Each real Frame check acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock` atomically with its own

+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`. |

+# 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.

+# 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.
+
+The local focused safety suite covers a metrics row before the status row,
+awake activity, ambiguous/missing status and foreign-lock refusal. A genuine
+worn visual and physical-controller check remains outstanding.

+# 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.

+## Frame and package gates
+
+The [candidate evidence](v0445-candidate-2026-10-26.md) records two
+shared-lock real Frame smokes: one on the combined main code and one after
+the 0.4.45 version bump. Each finished **12 passed / 1 optional x86 launch
+skipped / 0 failed**, with owned cleanup and lock release. The optional
+x86_64 launch was skipped because Steam Linux Runtime 4 is absent. The
+candidate also records the unworn sample Framey exercise on the combined
+code. Synthetic OpenVR input, setting persistence and scroll-button
+movement passed; native synthetic wheel scrolling did not. The only change
+after the version-bumped smoke was its evidence paragraph.
+
+The draft had ten installers plus `SHA256SUMS`, each with a GitHub SHA-256
+digest. A fresh downloaded checksum list contained exactly those ten names

+`20261022.6153909`. Test-owned ARM64 and Windows/Proton titles installed,
+launched and were removed. The optional x86_64 title installed and was
+removed; launch was **skipped** because Steam Linux Runtime 4 is absent.
+The result was **12 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed**. Cleanup passed and the
+command exited 0, which includes release of its owned lock. The detailed
+result remains private at

+
+This smoke checks release plumbing and temporary titles, not an installed
+official Decky plugin. No wearer was confirmed. The interactive worn-check
+script was not run, and no headset wake or controller input was sent. Free

+All seven jobs in the [post-merge main run](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40323149126)
+passed, including iOS and fake-Frame e2e. The app and lockfile both say

+## Frame and package gates
+
+The [candidate evidence](v0446-candidate-2026-10-26.md) records a locked
+exact-version real Frame smoke: **12 passed / 1 optional x86 launch skipped /
+0 failed**, with owned cleanup and lock release. The x86 launch needs Steam
+Linux Runtime 4, which was absent. A separate 12:25 UTC read-only check acquired
+and released its own `/tmp/frame-test.lock`; SteamVR activity was **3**
+(standby), proximity raw **3.0**, and battery **100%**. No wearer was confirmed,
+so no wake, controller input or interactive worn-check script ran.
+
+The draft contained exactly ten installers plus `SHA256SUMS`, each with a
+GitHub SHA-256 digest. A fresh downloaded checksum file matched the ten digest
+lines regenerated from GitHub metadata byte for byte; its digest was
+`365e7f6d9549ff993162964920a6560480069ed04ce1eca5551696ce7bbc4ae8`.

+Owned cleanup passed and the command exited 0, including lock release.

+**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.

+# v0.4.49 candidate gate, 26 October 2026
+
+The version bump at `6247dfb` follows the merged Music Control repair
+([#338](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/338)), the real Decky
+runtime gate ([#343](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/343)), and
+the fail-closed publisher ([#344](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/344)).
+The published v0.4.48 draft remains withdrawn. This candidate is not a
+published update.
+
+## Locked real Frame smoke
+
+At 22:48 UTC, `scripts/frame-smoke.sh` ran from exact version-bumped source
+commit `6247dfb` on SteamOS 0.5.6, build `20261022.6153909`. It acquired a
+unique `/tmp/frame-test.lock` owner before reading status. SteamVR activity was
+**3 (standby)**, proximity raw **3.0625**, and battery **99%**. The result was
+**12 passed / one optional x86_64 launch skipped / zero failed**. The x86_64
+title could not launch because Steam Linux Runtime 4 was not installed; no
+x86_64 launch is claimed. ARM64 and Windows/Proton test titles installed,
+launched and were removed. The script's owned cleanup passed and exited 0.
+The private result is
+`tests/smoke/results/2026-10-26T224816Z-20261022.6153909.json`.
+
+A separate read-only audit acquired a fresh unique lock after the smoke. It
+found activity **3**, proximity raw **3.0**, battery **99%**, no `fc_smoke_*`
+or `fc-smoke-*` title folders and no matching test processes. The audit
+released only its own lock. Neither run woke the headset or ran the worn
+interaction script. No wearer was confirmed; official-plugin wearer
+visibility, physical controller input, VR keyboard and optical comfort remain
+unverified.
+
+## Remaining publication gates
+
+The final candidate head needs green PR CI, native amd64 and ARM64 Decky
+runtime checks, all four installer previews, post-merge exact-commit main CI,
+tagged builds of all ten installers, checksums, independent package
+verification, publisher dry run and public update-channel readback. A gate
+that fails, is cancelled or remains pending holds publication.

+# v0.4.49 tagged release verification, 26 October 2026
+
+The annotated `v0.4.49` tag dereferences to merged main commit
+`38db6a284696c3bb86bf97f6b853af7e97681701`. This is the same tree as
+the reviewed [candidate PR #348](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/348).
+Its [main checks run](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40417275314)
+passed all seven jobs, including e2e, iOS, macOS, Windows and Linux.
+The [native Decky 3.3.0 run](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40417275256)
+passed on AMD64 and ARM64. The regression gate includes an expected failure
+for v0.4.48's bad legacy calling convention.
+
+The exact-tag [release workflow](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40418177330)
+passed all six jobs on its first attempt: draft, Linux, Windows, Apple Silicon
+Mac, Intel Mac, and checksums. No tagged build failed, was cancelled, or was
+skipped. The draft contained exactly ten installers and `SHA256SUMS` before
+publication. Every asset had a GitHub SHA-256 digest. A fresh download of
+`SHA256SUMS` had SHA-256
+`8a04f81f3b1efea9903e9acbba2c61b67f275869c160e0c6fa1d388a4803b42a`;
+it matched a list regenerated from the ten GitHub installer digests byte for
+byte. All ten installers were independently downloaded and passed
+`sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS`.

+The remaining three packages (both Mac DMGs and the ARM64 AppImage) also
+matched `SHA256SUMS`; tagged CI built and checked their platform bundles.
+Physical launch of these exact Mac and Windows installers was not performed.

+## 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.

+## 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

+(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.

+After the VR job released the shared lock, this audit acquired it and used a private temporary Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 user service. Read-only ProtonDB `get_setting` and Steam Status `get_settings` calls succeeded through the live Steam CEF websocket. The service and private base were removed and the lock released; normal managed services stayed inactive, battery was 100 → 99, and no power setting was changed. [Redacted results](evidence/framey-official-backend-2026-10-25.json) record exactly what ran. A [2026-10-26 follow-up](evidence/framey-events-backend-2026-10-26.json) verified default Notebook drawing/save/reopen across a real backend restart and Simple Timer start/cancel, countdown/completion events, a visible toast and persisted recents/subtle mode. Only private test settings were written. That initial pass left Simple Timer partial because its own expired-timer startup raises a missing `timer_task` error; sound/suspend are unsupported. A [local audio follow-up](evidence/framey-audio-backends-2026-10-26.md) exercised Volume Mixer, Volume Boost and Mixer through real Decky 3.3.0 amd64 backends on private silent virtual audio targets. Sliders, numeric volume entry, independent server readbacks and Mixer filter persistence across a runtime restart passed. An [ARM64 audio follow-up](evidence/framey-audio-arm64-2026-10-26.md) verified the unmodified official backends in actual Decky 3.3.0 on the Frame user audio session. Volume Mixer and Mixer now qualify as works for per-app volume: Chromium controls changed only a named silent stream, with independent Pulse readbacks. That run left Volume Boost partial because sink writes were denied. A [Volume Boost follow-up](evidence/framey-volume-boost-arm64-2026-10-26.md) now verifies linked/separate channel controls, re-link and reopen through the actual ARM64 backend. Independent Pulse reads confirmed 125%/150% gain writes while the default sink stayed muted; exact original volume/mute was restored. Volume Boost qualifies as works for sink controls. Audible output, Bluetooth playback and worn VR remain unverified. A [running-context follow-up](evidence/framey-running-context-2026-10-26.md) supplies detached running-app/main-app reads and relays actual Steam lifetime callbacks while a panel is open. Real Frame checks verified an empty list, registration/cleanup and the exact Discord Status ARM64 backend reporting no IPC connection. Nonempty games and transitions were synthetic fixtures; real game events, Discord activity and worn VR remain unverified. Discord Status moves to partial; no new works claim is made.

+calling convention. `Decky backend runtime` CI separately runs the published,
+SHA-256-pinned **Decky 3.3.0** executable on native amd64 and ARM64 Linux.

+methods over its actual websocket API. No test imports or instantiates `Plugin`.

+python3 scripts/framey-test-decky-runtime.py --loader /path/to/PluginLoader --output /tmp/decky-runtime.json

+Run on Linux with Docker. Image build and the pinned loader download need network;
+plugin execution has no network, published ports, host home/audio/D-Bus/device
+mounts, capabilities or writable repository. Each case has its own unprivileged
+container, private tmpfs home and temporary files. Nothing contacts the headset
+or its shared lock. Failed/timed-out containers and the private image tag are
+removed by the runner.
+
+Every `compat_shims.append` in the managed installer must have a case in
+`tests/decky-runtime/cases.json`. Add each affected pinned official archive and
+a safe public-method probe when introducing a shim. Ordinary unit tests reject
+uncovered shim names. The runtime job verifies the managed receipt, loader
+plugin discovery, and a successful backend call; a discovery listing alone
+could conceal a crashed backend process.
+
+Current cases cover both Music Control entries, Shotty and DeckySpy. DeckySpy
+verifies native psutil import plus read-only CPU, memory, uptime, battery and
+network metrics through actual legacy RPC calls. Music Control uses
+the private silent MPRIS fixture to check discovery, metadata, play/pause,
+next/previous, seek and volume, with independent service-state readbacks.
+Shotty checks backend import, rescuer state and empty screenshot aggregation
+inside its disposable home. A fourth negative-control case deliberately
+reintroduces #335's incorrect bound-method transformation and must reproduce
+the real loader's legacy backend-call failure. The gate fails if that regression goes
+undetected. These checks verify backend behavior in a container; they do not
+upgrade any plugin's Frame, actual media playback or worn-VR compatibility claim.

+# 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.
