+# 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.

+# 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.

+# v0.4.48 release verification and withdrawal, 26 October 2026
+
+The annotated [`v0.4.48` tag](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/releases/tag/v0.4.48)
+dereferences to main commit `5438e1d9d05ca472f200dcde50799c8ae882fafb`,
+which contains the version bump and [candidate evidence](v0448-candidate-2026-10-26.md).
+The exact-commit [main checks run](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40356645911)
+finished successfully: all seven jobs passed, including e2e, iOS, Windows,
+macOS and Linux tests. Its first two attempts had an iOS job stuck in the
+runner queue and were cancelled; attempt 3 ran that job and ended with all
+seven required checks successful. The later documentation-only main commit
+`1ddb6278b8ae0a98ecc79a181bba4d3cc67a52b6` also passed all seven
+[main checks](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40406851705).
+
+The exact-tag [release workflow](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/actions/runs/40406781383)
+finished successfully. Its draft, Linux, Windows, Apple Silicon Mac, Intel
+Mac and checksum jobs all passed; no tagged installer build failed or was
+cancelled. Tagged CI launched the Linux x86_64 AppImage on Xvfb, checked both
+Mac bundles against their runner architecture, installed the Windows Setup
+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
+its downloaded SHA-256 and GitHub's own asset digest were
+`8cf7d8808f0b0b9da08e2590461e83ef557412a0ce2cc780c8e1d02e34ce1a60`.
+Independent downloads on lxso1 matched `SHA256SUMS` for these packages:
+
+| Package | SHA-256 and independent check |
+| --- | --- |
+| Linux x86_64 AppImage | `7c0cbef7c0330c48ecb69f6fcee027a8b45fe84b0458985db31d16b09fc45cbe`; isolated Xvfb launch served HTTP 200 with `FrameControl/1`, then its server stopped. |
+| Linux arm64 DEB | `d3c2cdc4310fc3fed11460ad970a3ff6da8b80a6ec566acf1bcaa5a9570efc3e`; package declares version 0.4.48 and arm64 architecture. |
+| Mac arm64 ZIP | `3c5b0ad0877e4c1e1adbac17a9eb4f1114294a25576330050ac9ce338e0b1c00`; ZIP CRC, bundle version 0.4.48 and main Mach-O arm64 CPU passed. |
+| Mac x64 ZIP | `3bb90246794f0082fd4f34d86113e292ae543671ff8bea4096d888a9273a529c`; ZIP CRC, bundle version 0.4.48 and main Mach-O x86_64 CPU passed. |
+| Windows x64 Setup | `def654c238575778120c6f2a4df1af319b0cd169f64c2fceebe26ddc5e3c68ff`; downloaded file is a PE/Nullsoft installer; tagged Windows CI installed and tested its contents. |
+
+After attaching the final release notes,
+`scripts/publish-release.sh --dry-run v0.4.48` passed the exact tag, ten
+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.

+# 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`.
+
+## Independent package checks
+
+| Package | Check |

The first local launch attempt hit the workspace sandbox's `Operation not permitted` restriction; the same downloaded bytes passed outside that sandbox. Tagged Linux CI also launched the AppImage. |
+| Linux arm64 DEB | SHA-256 `a8e448b8b8f10b2813546cb9d8fea6bbe424e14dc3a739df86daa69bfd4023c1`; declares version 0.4.49 and arm64. |

+| Mac arm64 ZIP | SHA-256 `c43c1017b3d244fcf59ab8f5bd35dbad17af4562b2aca3baf65908814f2ae4c3`; ZIP CRC, bundle version 0.4.49 and main Mach-O arm64 CPU passed. |

+| Windows x64 Setup | SHA-256 `386d99fd15314e1caef577f7cdf21e9e9f572d1c0dbaa65c369e5a5b0c047d31`; downloaded file is a PE/Nullsoft installer. Tagged Windows CI installed it and checked its packaged resources and Python libraries. |
+| Windows x64 ZIP | SHA-256 `2c201a8d1115dd1a07ba7b9293f7e05c319bd802f574a4b2f9565268a7f5cf8b`; ZIP CRC passed. |
+
+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.

+Only exact ID 89 / DeckySpy 0.6.7 receives this missing dependency, isolated
+inside its py_modules directory, alongside Framey’s battery-name fallback.
+The fallback reads only Linux power_supply files identified as type Battery;
+it leaves native psutil results intact and never writes sysfs. The host and remote installer both verify
+these digests, and the remote selects the native ELF architecture. No pip or
+runtime download runs on the Frame. The stable ABI is exercised with actual
+Decky 3.3.0 rather than assuming compatibility with its bundled Python.
+Existing plugin copies require an explicit managed update or reinstall.
