 ## Unreleased
 
+- Import a base APK with supported native-library or asset splits from a local
+  Android backup or XAPK/APKS/APKM bundle. Check package and version before
+  install; refuse resource, code and feature splits and device-variant sets.
+  This route has local fixture coverage, not a real split-game headset test.
+
+- Save Steam screenshots under a separate folder for each headset, Steam
+  account and game. Equal screenshot filenames no longer overwrite one another;
+  existing files in the old flat folder are left in place.
+  [Copying guide](docs/recording.md).
+
+- Compare two explicit Windows Wireless Adapter doctor reads in local memory.
+  Highlight exact PnP instances and known state changes after a dropout;
+  incomplete inventories stay unknown. A Forget button clears the comparison.
+  No adapter setting changes or report uploads are made.
+
+- Add recovery steps to the Windows Wireless Adapter doctor for streams that
+  drop as they start and dongles that will not reconnect. Compare exact PnP IDs
+  and test one connection condition at a time. In-app disable/re-enable remains
+  deferred until an active Steam adapter instance can be identified safely.
+  [Guide and limits](docs/windows-wireless-doctor.md).
+
+- Add an explicit host window-switch button to whole-display panels: Alt-Tab
+  on Windows and Command-Tab on macOS. Single-window panels keep their own
+  source, so the button is hidden there.
+
+- Enable the in-app OBS source Start/Stop control on Windows. A control pipe
+  lets the Python relay close its SSH child on Stop, app quit or parent exit;
+  add a short [Discord guide](docs/streaming-to-discord.md).
+
+- Add a read-only wired connection doctor for a PC using the Frame's observed
+  USB-C network: show the local route, SSH port and pinned-key login result
+  without changing IP, host keys or headset settings.
+  [Usage and limits](docs/wired-connection.md).
+
+- Start the Android app catalogue without waiting for the headset's installed-app
+  list. Browsing remains available if that status request is slow or fails;
+  installation still waits for a confirmed list to avoid duplicate installs.
+
+- Verify the packaged OBS Start and Stop control with a real Frame, and record
+  37.600 seconds of headset mirror video and non-silent output audio in OBS.
+  Listening, sync and active passthrough remain unverified.
+  [Test record](docs/evidence/obs-media-source-real-2026-10-25.md).
+
+- Bundle the OBS source helper in Linux and macOS installers and add a
+  **Capture & Live** Start/Stop control. The app selects the active Frame and
+  closes its SSH stream on a headset switch or app exit. A real Frame stream
+  reached OBS with video and non-silent audio; listening and sync remain
+  unverified. [Setup and limits](docs/obs-headset-source.md).
+
+- Add a source-checkout helper that sends the Frame's SteamVR mirror and
+  default-output audio to a local OBS Media Source. A real Frame supplied a
+  4.021-second H.264/AAC stream to a Linux receiver; OBS playback and sync
+  remain unverified. [Setup and limits](docs/obs-headset-source.md).
+
+- Link emulator setup guidance from Store → Emulators. Existing Steam library
+  shortcuts and artwork cover Android apps and sideloaded titles; Android ROM
+  transfer still needs a verified per-instance workflow.
+  [Guide](docs/emulators.md).
+
+- Record the current Frame OS mirror and charge-limit checks. Active
+  passthrough in the mirror is still unknown; this build has no supported
+  user-writable 80% charge-limit control.
+  [Headset evidence](docs/evidence/round3-headset-2026-10-25.md).
+
+- Add Windows Tools → Wireless Adapter doctor: an explicit read-only PC snapshot
+  of distinct Wi-Fi Direct PnP instances, presence/link state, PC Wi-Fi and
+  reported channels/bands, with possible 2.4 GHz overlap guidance. Unknowns stay
+  visible; no adapter disable action is offered because an unused instance
+  cannot be identified reliably. No headset access or settings changes.
+  [Sources, verification and limits](docs/windows-wireless-doctor.md).
+
+- Add a Linux PC Wireless Adapter doctor in Settings and Devices, with a source
+  CLI and local JSON report. Select observed hardware without assuming Valve
+  IDs; inspect USB/interface presence, driver/module binding, udev/permissions,
+  rfkill, channel/band and network manager evidence. Missing evidence stays
+  unknown; all checks are read-only and never contact the Frame.
+  [Usage and verification limits](docs/linux-wireless-adapter-doctor.md).
+
+- Add Linux Tools → Steam desktop sharing: request `steam -pipewire` only after
+  checking Steam is not running, or open KDE Application Permissions with
+  instructions to revoke a verified Steam screen-sharing session manually. No
+  automatic permission reset, Steam restart, or headset access. Frame Control
+  Linux capture remains disabled; live portal behavior is unverified.
+  [Usage and limits](docs/steam-pipewire.md).
+
 - Use gamescope's input for the keyboard and trackpad, following the focused
   headset panel without installing an input service. Start KDE Connect only for
   accents and emoji, keeping queued text ordered and cancelling it on headset

+# Connection and streaming lag FAQ
+
+## Does Frame Control lower my streaming lag?
+
+No. Frame Control uses SSH to manage the Frame. SteamVR or Steam Link sends the
+game stream. Frame Control does not carry the game stream. It cannot lower your
+game-stream ping or fix a stream that stops on the PC. A 40–75 ms ping in a VR
+game is not a Frame Control measurement.
+
+You do **not** need the Steam Wireless Adapter to use Frame Control. The app can
+connect over Wi-Fi, the Wireless Adapter, or USB if the computer has an SSH
+route to the Frame. Use the route that lets the app connect. To improve game
+streaming, check the SteamVR or Steam Link connection on the PC and the Frame.
+The [wired connection doctor](wired-connection.md) checks only Frame Control's
+SSH route. A successful doctor check does not prove that the game stream uses
+the cable or has low lag.
+
+## Can I use a USB-A-to-C cable?
+
+A Mac reached the Frame over a USB-C connection on the
+`10.86.200.232/29` USB network. That test used a USB-C host port. We have
+**not tested a USB-A-to-C cable** with the Frame. A data-capable USB-A-to-C
+cable might show a USB network interface on your PC, but this is unknown on
+the tested Frame OS and PC hosts. Check whether your PC shows that interface
+and whether Frame Control's wired doctor can reach the Frame at
+`10.86.200.233`. A charge-only cable cannot carry USB data. You can use Wi-Fi
+for Frame Control if the USB route does not work.

+# Decky Loader on Steam Frame
+
+**Status, 2026-10-25:** Decky Loader 3.3.0's ARM64 backend starts on Frame OS
+0.5.6 and injects into Steam's shared CEF context. Its Decky tab registers in
+JavaScript. A usable plugin menu in the Frame's VR shell has **not** been
+verified. Frame Control therefore labels its user-service manager experimental.
+ProtonDB Badges loaded in the backend and Gamepad UI plugin registry, but its
+VR user interface has not been seen or used.
+
+## What was checked on the real headset
+
+The headset was SteamOS `0.5.6`, `VARIANT_ID=vr`, build `20261022.6153909`,
+`aarch64` (SteamOS 3.9.x family). SSH reached it through the existing `frame`
+alias. `/` was mounted read-write as Btrfs; no root filesystem change was
+needed. `systemctl --user` was running. The Steam client launched with
+`-cef-enable-debugging`, `-vrgamepadui`, and `-steamdeck`; its web helper served
+CEF remote debugging on `127.0.0.1:8080`. The usual
+`.cef-enable-remote-debugging` marker was absent, yet debugging was active.
+
+CEF listed a `SharedJSContext` target at `steamloopback.host/routes/library/home`
+and a separate `SteamVR` target for the VR overlay. The Decky 3.3.0 ARM64
+binary started from `/tmp` as the normal user: port `127.0.0.1:1337` answered
+HTTP 200, the log reported `Loading Decky frontend!`, and CEF showed
+`window.deckyHasLoaded === true` and one registered Decky tab in
+`SharedJSContext`. The `SteamVR` target had neither that global nor a Decky tab;
+its current body text did not contain Decky. The Steam web helper had
+`--disable-quick-menu`. This is evidence of backend and shared-context
+injection, not proof of an accessible Decky plugin menu inside VR. A QAM
+interaction in the headset and a plugin UI test remain necessary.
+
+Frame Control's per-user manager was then exercised on the real Frame:
+**install → status → update → status → remove → status**. The service became
+active, the binary matched Decky's published SHA-256, and removal left no
+service, binary or listening port 1337. Decky's already injected JavaScript
+remained in Steam's running web helper until that helper was restarted. After a
+web helper restart, both `deckyHasLoaded` and the tab hook were absent. All
+temporary trial files and the test's empty managed data folder were removed.
+
+## ProtonDB Badges compatibility test
+
+The [ProtonDB Badges v1.1.0 release](https://github.com/OMGDuke/protondb-decky/releases/tag/v1.1.0)
+was tested on the same Frame OS build. It is a popular, passive Decky plugin
+(133 GitHub stars at test time) that adds badges to game pages. The published
+archive SHA-256 was
+`b4c72ff0ffe60b1a14abafe75a62f644cbb6689f398a753a1905c281151d9173`.
+Its six archive entries had no links or path traversal, and its manifest declared
+`flags: []` and `api_version: 2`. The release contains a frontend bundle and
+no backend `main.py`; its source backend only manages its own settings.
+
+The test copied the archive into Frame Control's managed Decky plugin folder,
+then installed the official Decky 3.3.0 ARM64 binary as a user service. Decky's
+log said `Plugin ProtonDB Badges is passive` and `Loaded ProtonDB Badges`.
+`DeckyPluginLoader.plugins` in Steam's `SharedJSContext` contained
+`ProtonDB Badges`; `deckyHasLoaded` was true there. The separate `SteamVR`
+CEF target had no Decky globals or plugin text, and SteamVR listed no Decky
+overlay. The headset was in standby, so no in-headset plugin page or badge
+interaction was verified. The backend's unauthenticated root URL returned
+HTTP 403, as expected.
+
+The test removed the managed Decky service and binary, the test plugin folder,
+and its shared-device lock. The service was no longer running, the plugin list
+was empty, the binary and unit were gone, and port 1337 was closed. Decky's
+already injected frontend may remain in the running Steam web helper until
+Steam normally restarts; the test did not restart Steam or SteamVR.
+
+## Why the official Decky installer is not used
+
+The current [Decky installer](https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-installer/blob/e42a3c828de90673959b4de26cf5c5d2c7830554/cli/install_release.sh)
+selects `PluginLoader-arm64` on `aarch64`, creates `~/homebrew/plugins`, writes
+the CEF marker, installs `/etc/systemd/system/plugin_loader.service`, and uses
+`sudo systemctl` to enable a **root** service. Its
+[uninstaller](https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-installer/blob/e42a3c828de90673959b4de26cf5c5d2c7830554/cli/uninstall.sh)
+also uses sudo. These scripts do not call `steamos-readonly`, but they do write
+under `/etc`; their root service has broad control over the headset. The
+current [Decky loader](https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader/blob/00cd202872b85868071b041c8f1b34e734147195/backend/decky_loader/injector.py)
+targets Steam's shared Gamepad UI CEF page, injects a frontend served on port
+1337, and patches the standard Quick Access Menu. On Frame, Steam supplies
+the CEF target, while visible VR shell integration is unresolved.
+
+Frame Control downloads only Decky's official latest ARM64 release, requires
+its published SHA-256 digest, and checks the ELF architecture. It installs a
+**user** service named `frame-control-decky.service` in
+`~/.config/systemd/user`, with the binary and plugin folder under
+`~/.local/share/frame-control/decky`. It never asks for a sudo password, edits
+`/etc`, or changes CEF flags. Decky warns that running without root is not
+officially supported. Plugins that require root, assume `~/homebrew`, or rely
+on Steam Deck hardware may fail even if the loader runs. Frame Control lists
+plugins already present in its managed folder and the upstream `~/homebrew`
+folder; it does not install plugins while their Frame UI and compatibility
+are unverified.
+
+The latest tested release was
+[Decky 3.3.0](https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader/releases/tag/v3.3.0),
+`PluginLoader-arm64` SHA-256
+`8ef5dcf36cbbbb6e97201a6baed5d79c4cc44ec27789fc9af1c5b6ae8f0b25b6`.
+This digest comes from that release's GitHub API asset metadata; it detects a
+download mismatch, but is not an independent signature.
+
+## Opt in and remove
+
+In Frame Control, open **Tools → Decky Loader on Frame**, read the experimental
+notice, check the acknowledgement box, and choose **Install**. **Update**
+downloads and verifies the latest ARM64 release again. **Remove managed
+Decky** disables and removes only Frame Control's user service and binary.
+It preserves plugin files and settings so unrelated user data is not deleted.
+Restart Steam or the headset to clear the frontend already injected into its
+current web helper process. No action wipes the headset.
+
+Manual removal if Frame Control is unavailable:
+
+```sh
+ssh frame 'systemctl --user disable --now frame-control-decky.service; rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/frame-control-decky.service ~/.local/share/frame-control/decky/PluginLoader ~/.local/share/frame-control/decky/.frame-control/receipt.json; systemctl --user daemon-reload; systemctl --user reset-failed frame-control-decky.service'
+```
+
+That command intentionally keeps `~/.local/share/frame-control/decky/plugins`
+and `settings`. Check those folders before deleting them yourself. An upstream
+Decky installation is separate; use its own installer to remove it. Frame
+Control refuses to install alongside an upstream system service.
+
+## Next compatibility test
+
+In the headset, open Steam's VR dashboard and look for Decky's plugin tab or
+Quick Access Menu after an opt-in install. If none appears, inspect whether
+the VR shell exposes a different menu component and whether Decky's frontend
+can target it without patching Steam globally. Confirm the plugin's visible
+UI, controller interaction, and persistence across a normal Steam restart.
+Until those checks pass,
+Frame Control should not describe Decky plugins as usable in VR yet. A worn
+headset check is needed for both the Decky menu and the Frame Control SteamVR
+panel; only then can their controller interaction and plugin presentation be
+confirmed.

+# Emulators and your own games
+
+Frame Control's **Store → Emulators** lists Android emulators from its open
+app sources. Pick an app, read its compatibility result, and install it. An
+installed Android app gets its own Steam library shortcut and artwork; **Add
+artwork** in its library menu can fill missing images later. The artwork
+workflow also covers native Linux and Windows titles added through **Send to
+Frame**. An optional SteamGridDB key under **Settings → Library artwork**
+can supply exact-title community images; source images and generated art are
+fallbacks. See [VR APKs → In the Steam library](vr-apks.md#in-the-steam-library)
+for the limits and tested behavior.
+
+## Set up an emulator
+
+1. In **Store → Emulators**, choose an emulator that supports the console and
+   file format you want. Check its compatibility result before installing;
+   an app listed in the store is not automatically verified on the Frame.
+2. Launch the new shortcut from Steam. Open the emulator's own settings to
+   choose a gamepad layout, core or system, and game folder. These controls
+   differ by emulator; Frame Control does not change them.
+3. Use game files you own and any firmware that emulator's instructions
+   require. Frame Control does not provide ROMs or firmware.
+
+**Android apps run in separate Lepton instances.** Copying a ROM to the
+Frame's Linux `~/Downloads` through **Send to Frame** does not automatically
+put it in an Android app's `/sdcard/Download`. A one-click ROM transfer is
+deferred until an emulator and its file picker can be tested end to end on a
+real Frame. An app's own import or sync feature may be enough. Advanced users
+can use [Lepton's per-instance ADB port](apks.md)
+to copy into that instance, after confirming the correct container and port.
+Do not assume that port 5555 is the emulator: it is Lepton Development, while
+installed apps receive their own ports.
+
+For a native Linux emulator that can read the Frame's home directory, use
+**Send to Frame → Copy to ~/Downloads instead** for your files, then open them
+from the emulator. Whether a particular emulator has a Frame-compatible ARM64
+build, correct controller mapping and readable storage must be checked for
+that app. **Linux apps** in Frame Control lists Flatpak options; a Windows or
+native game archive can instead be added through
+[Send to Frame](sideloading.md#using-it), which registers a Steam title and
+artwork. Each ROM is usually opened *inside* its emulator; Frame Control does
+not create one Steam shortcut per ROM.
+
+## If something does not appear
+
+- Check that the emulator is running and is the same app instance to which
+  you sent the file. Android instances do not share `/sdcard` storage.
+- Check the emulator's supported extension and whether it expects an archive
+  or an extracted file. Some systems need firmware before games appear.
+- For an empty Steam tile, use **Add artwork** in the installed app or
+  sideloaded title menu. This changes artwork, not emulator data or ROMs.
+
+The Frame's microSD/USB path into Android apps remains unverified without an
+inserted medium and an app readback test; see [issue #169](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/issues/169).

+# OBS relay and MP4 follow-up, 25 October 2026 UTC
+
+This check used a Linux x86-64 host (`lxso2`) and the real Frame running
+SteamOS 0.5.6, build `20261022.6153909`. The host reached `ssh frame`. Before
+device work, the task atomically acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock`, wrote its
+owner marker, and after cleanup removed only that marker and its lock. Battery
+was 99–100%; SteamVR 2.18.2 reported `activity_level: 3` (standby). Steam and
+SteamVR were left running. No passthrough session or game was started.
+
+The production `scripts/obs-headset-source.py` relay reached its first local
+UDP packet in 0.65–1.15 seconds across several runs. A 12-second wall-clock
+capture of its MPEG-TS packets contained 325 H.264 frames at 1280×720,
+spanning 10.83 seconds of video timestamps: 30.0 fps. All 324 adjacent frame
+intervals were 33.333–33.334 ms, with none over 50 ms. The 826 captured TS
+packets had zero sync-byte, transport-error-indicator, or per-PID continuity
+errors. Six final TS packets arrived after the receiver's 12-second cutoff and
+were not included in those counts. Static standby pixels cannot establish
+whether a moving game would drop frames.
+
+After the fix, the `--height 1080 --fps 60 --no-audio` fallback reached its
+first packet in 0.597 seconds. An eight-second wall-clock capture contained
+447 H.264 frames at 1920×1080 over 7.45 seconds of video timestamps: 60.0 fps.
+All frame intervals were 16.666–16.667 ms, none over 25 ms, and its 756 TS
+packets had zero continuity or transport-error-indicator errors. It had no
+audio stream, as requested. The helper exited 0 on Stop, and the owned lock
+was released.
+
+The stream also contained 48 kHz stereo AAC. A 440 Hz synthetic tone played
+through the Frame's default speaker output with real-time pacing appeared in
+the capture for about 0.89 seconds; decoded audio had a -21.0 dB peak. This
+proves an audio signal reached the output monitor and OBS transport. It does
+not prove audible monitoring, real game audio, or audio/video sync: there was
+no simultaneous visible marker to compare with the tone.
+
+The production MP4 recording commands were run separately for six seconds,
+then Stop, remux, and copy to the host completed. Stop returned after 7.27
+seconds from Start, including six seconds of recording; the remote ffmpeg
+exited 0. The copied 36,929-byte MP4 contained 188 H.264 frames at 1920×1080
+and 30 fps (6.266 seconds), plus 281 AAC packets (5.994 seconds). One decoded
+frame at two seconds had a single color, RGB `(22, 27, 53)`, across all
+2,073,600 pixels. The test's remote files were removed; the host copy stayed
+under `/tmp` for inspection.
+
+The relay previously returned an error when the app deliberately closed its
+control pipe, because its SSH child commonly exits 255 after termination.
+The same test reproduced this (`helper_exit: 1`) on the real Frame. The follow-up
+fix recognizes deliberate Stop and adds bounded startup and stall timeouts,
+with fake-SSH regression tests. A new locked real-Frame check after the fix
+received its first 1,316-byte UDP datagram in 0.697 seconds and returned
+`helper_exit_after_stop: 0` after closing the app control pipe. The longer
+transport and MP4 measurements above were taken before the code change; the
+fix does not alter codecs or capture commands.
+
+Prior [OBS 30 Media Source evidence](obs-media-source-real-2026-10-25.md)
+records a real Frame stream in OBS on Linux. This follow-up measured the relay
+with an FFmpeg receiver; OBS itself was not relaunched. Windows and macOS
+application paths, wearer-visible image latency, real game sound, audible
+playback, perceptual A/V sync, and active passthrough pixels remain unverified.

+# OBS Media Source on a real Frame, 2026-10-25 AEDT
+
+The Linux x86_64 AppImage from PR #174's exact head `69fff152` had SHA-256
+`4902ac80b77fbf98ec918db29df9cf9260b8abd6763a5b5055572335869f038a`.
+Its extracted resources passed `app/build/check-resources.js`, including the
+OBS helper, and the app launched under Xvfb with an isolated profile and a
+dummy SSH alias. Its bundled server served the page with HTTP 200.
+
+For the device test, the PC was lxso2. The real Frame was reached as `ssh frame`
+under an atomically acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock`. Battery read 100% Full
+before and after. SteamVR 2.18.2 reported `activity_level: 3` (standby). The
+mirror service and `/dev/video99` were active. The test cleaned its temporary
+remote WAV and released only its own lock.
+
+OBS 30.0.2 ran in a disposable Ubuntu 24.04 container on lxso2, with Xvfb and
+host loopback networking. A Media Source opened `udp://127.0.0.1:15099` with
+input format `mpegts`. A synthetic pattern and tone first verified the OBS
+scene: its saved 43.733-second MKV had H.264 video and AAC audio with a
+`-17.9 dB` audio peak. The real Frame test then ran the helper from the
+extracted AppImage resources **before** OBS opened the source, so OBS joined
+an ongoing stream. OBS's saved 37.600-second MKV had H.264 video and AAC audio.
+The standby mirror appeared in decoded frames by five seconds. A 440 Hz tone
+played briefly to the Frame's default PulseAudio output appeared in the OBS
+audio recording at seconds 20–21; decoded audio peaked at `-34.4 dB`. A
+separate direct recording of `@DEFAULT_MONITOR@` during the same type of tone
+peaked at `-34.5 dB`. These measurements verify non-silent headset output
+audio passed through the helper and OBS into the saved recording.
+
+The first OBS attempt opened its Media Source well before the Frame sent
+packets. Its output had a silent AAC track until the mirror appeared late.
+Starting the helper before OBS fixed this in the second run. The setup guide
+now recommends starting the source in Frame Control before adding or activating
+the OBS Media Source.
+
+The exact-head AppImage was then launched on an isolated Xvfb display and
+profile with the real `frame` alias. In **Tools → Capture & Live**, clicking
+**Start OBS source** changed the UI to **Stop OBS source** and showed
+`udp://127.0.0.1:15099` after the first stream packet. The packaged Python
+helper was running with `--frame frame`. Clicking **Stop OBS source** returned
+the UI to **Start OBS source**; the helper and its remote `/dev/video99` ffmpeg
+process were gone. The app exited through **File → Quit**. Battery again read
+100% Full, and the owned lock was released.
+
+**Limits:** Nobody listened to OBS audio monitoring or the Frame speakers.
+Audio/video sync was not measured. The headset was unworn and in standby, so
+this test does not answer whether active passthrough pixels appear in the
+mirror. The OBS MKVs were temporary local test artifacts and are not included
+in the repository.

+# SteamOS PC OBS host feasibility check, 2026-10-25 UTC
+
+The available x86_64 host, lxso2, runs Ubuntu 24.04.3. It has no `flatpak`
+command, OBS installation, SteamOS 3.9.5 VM or physical Steam Machine. This
+check therefore does **not** verify that Frame Control or Flatpak OBS runs on
+a SteamOS desktop or a read-only-root PC host.
+
+The downloaded v0.4.27 Linux x86_64 AppImage matched GitHub's SHA-256 digest
+`42d774653c69b193c3d577743c32b8fe8dfeee7ea1f8cdf7369902962d647b83`.
+With `APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1`, it launched under Xvfb using an isolated
+profile and its bundled server returned HTTP 200. FUSE mounting, physical
+display rendering and SteamOS-specific dependencies were not tested.
+
+The v0.4.27 tagged OBS helper then ran against the real Frame under the shared
+`/tmp/frame-test.lock`. Frame OS was 0.5.6 and SteamVR activity level was 3
+(standby). A receiver bound to `127.0.0.1:15099` on lxso2 accepted 497
+MPEG-TS packets, 93,436 bytes. Every datagram had complete 188-byte packets
+with sync bytes. `ffprobe` found H.264 video and AAC audio. Closing the
+helper's control pipe made it exit 0; no owned remote stream process remained.
+Battery read 100% Full before and after, and the owned lock was released. The
+temporary `.ts` file was removed. This proves the local UDP sender path on an
+Ubuntu host; it does not prove Flatpak OBS could receive it on SteamOS.
+
+The public
+[OBS Flatpak manifest](https://github.com/flathub/com.obsproject.Studio/blob/master/com.obsproject.Studio.json)
+lists `--share=network`, which permits use of the host network. We read that
+manifest but did not install or run the Flatpak. A future check needs a real
+SteamOS 3.9.5 desktop host or VM with Flatpak OBS: launch the AppImage without
+root changes, start the source, record from the Media Source at
+`udp://127.0.0.1:15099`, verify video and audible game audio, then stop and
+confirm cleanup. The standby test cannot establish real game audio, A/V sync
+or active passthrough in the mirror.

+# Screenshot Save on a real Frame, 25 October 2026
+
+After PR #192 merged, Frame Control's production `list_shots()` and
+`save_shots()` paths were run from lxso2 against the real Frame. The test held
+the shared `/tmp/frame-test.lock` with an owner marker and removed only its own
+lock. A separate locked check earlier in this round found SteamVR at activity
+level 3 (standby). No new screenshot was created.
+
+- The Frame listed seven existing Steam screenshots.
+- One existing screenshot was copied to a temporary folder on the PC. Its
+  local size matched the reported remote size: **294,885 bytes**. The new
+  destination had four components below the temporary root: headset, Steam
+  account, game ID and filename.
+- Saving the same screenshot a second time returned zero new copies. A fresh
+  list then marked that screenshot as saved.
+- The temporary PC folder and its private image were removed at the end. The
+  source screenshot on the Frame was only read. Battery was **100% Full**
+  before and after.
+
+This verifies one real screenshot transfer and the repeat-save behavior. It
+does **not** reproduce two different real screenshots with the same filename;
+the account/game/headset collision case is covered by the fake-source test in
+`tests/test_shot_copy.py`. Windows and macOS physical-PC saves were not tested.
+Active passthrough in the recording mirror remains unknown because the Frame
+was in standby.

+# SteamOS 0.5.6 compatibility check, 25 October 2026
+
+The real Frame was accessed **after** the 00:00 AEDT hold, under a separately
+acquired `/tmp/frame-test.lock`. The coordinator had finished its v0.4.19 smoke
+test and released its lock first. This check took place approximately 00:04–
+00:08 AEDT (13:04–13:08 UTC). A device clock reading in the first snapshot was
+**00:04:58 AEDT**. The one temporary capture was removed and our lock was
+released. Steam and SteamVR were left running.
+
+| Check | Observation |
+|---|---|
+| OS | `VERSION_ID=0.5.6`, `VARIANT_ID=vr`, `BUILD_ID=20261022.6153909` |
+| Update channel | `atomupd-manager tracked-branch` returned `beta`; tracked variant `vr`; update status `idle`. `atomupd-manager status` and `check` returned D-Bus `AccessDenied` to the normal user. No root, update, or channel change was attempted. |
+| Discovery | `frame.local` and a sample `frame-0000.local` name were unresolved from the Linux host. Avahi was active on the Frame, but `/etc/avahi/avahi-daemon.conf` has `publish-addresses=no`. The configured `ssh frame` alias worked. The host reached the Frame over Tailscale, so a local-subnet scan and same-LAN cached-IP reconnection were not exercised. |
+| Script fallback | `steamos-session-select` was present and `holo-session-select` absent. The installed devkit utilities contained `steamos-prepare-upload` and `steamos-delete`; their `holo-*` replacements were absent. No session switch, install, or delete command was run. |
+| Battery and memory | Frame Control's `ui/frame_status.py` returned a system battery at 98%, Charging, with its source under `/sys/class/power_supply/max1720x_bat_7-36`; memory was 16,422,952,960 bytes total and 11,256,848,384 bytes available. The battery was 97% at the initial raw sysfs check and 98% at the final check while charging. |
+| Recording source | The user `steamvr-v4l2cam.service` and `/dev/video99` were present. A single frame from that device was black while the unworn headset was in standby. Frame Control's MP4 path reads that same SteamVR `system.HeadsetView` mirror and never opens a passthrough camera. Active passthrough inclusion in the mirror remains unverified. The sample image was not retained or published. |
+| Dominant eye | Neither standard `steamvr.vrsettings` path checked had a readable dominant-eye setting. No source or effect on the mirror was verified; Frame Control does not attach dominant-eye metadata. |
+
+This was a bounded compatibility check, not a rerun of the coordinator's
+13-step smoke test. The coordinator reported that smoke passed on this same
+build, with battery 95% to 96% while charging and cleanup complete.

+
+PC-only implementation and verification. No Frame was contacted, before or
+after 13:00 UTC. No adapters or security settings were changed. This evidence
+does not establish a physical Steam wireless adapter fix or RF interference.
+
+## Windows VM
+
+An existing local Windows 11 VM (build 26200), Python 3.12.14 from the installed
+Frame Control bundle, ran the isolated suite from a task-specific Downloads
+folder:
+
+```powershell
+& 'C:\Users\frame\AppData\Local\Programs\Frame Control\resources\python\python.exe' -m unittest discover -s tests -p test_wireless.py -v
+```
+
+Result: **15 tests, OK, one skipped** (Node absent). This includes the real
+read-only PowerShell inventory and authenticated HTTP handler tests. The app's
+connector was never started. Existing test SSH credentials were used only for
+the Windows VM; no credentials were copied into the repository.
+
+- [Exact test output](windows-wireless-tests-2026-10-24.txt).
+- [Sanitized live inventory](windows-wireless-summary-2026-10-24.json): two
+  virtual-machine network devices, with PnP/presence/adapter/route sources
+  available. WLAN unavailable; channels/bands remained null. All PnP IDs,
+  device names and interface names were removed from this artifact.
+- The guest clock was approximately seven hours ahead of the host. `observedAt`
+  is retained as returned by Windows, not used to establish test timing.
+
+The first probe used a list of requested default prefixes. A missing IPv6
+route caused PowerShell to throw away available IPv4 data. The final query
+filters `Get-NetRoute` results instead, and the rerun above confirms routes
+are available. No network configuration was changed to make the query work.
+
+## Browser UI and local tests
+
+Production `ui/index.html` ran against a loopback-only synthetic API fixture,
+with no connector and no headset transport. Opening/revisiting the tool caused
+no wireless query; an explicit click rendered two distinct Wi-Fi Direct PnP
+instances and a 2.4 GHz PC interface while the headset state was offline.
+Unknown virtual-adapter channels, non-present/disabled status, and unconfirmed
+interference remained visible. Checked at 1280 and 640 CSS pixels without
+horizontal overflow.
+
+![Production browser UI with explicitly labelled synthetic Windows readings](windows-wireless-synthetic-2026-10-24.png)
+
+The screenshot uses synthetic readings, not the VM's two Ethernet interfaces.
+The yellow synthetic-data label was added by the browser fixture for this
+capture; it is not product UI.
+
+Local commands:
+
+```sh
+python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -p 'test_wireless.py' -v
+node tests/wireless.cjs
+python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -v
+python3 -m py_compile ui/*.py
+node --check /tmp/wireless-index-scripts.js
+```
+
+The targeted suite passed 15 tests with the live Windows-only test skipped;
+the direct Node run passed all four UI tests. The complete server suite passed
+1,423 tests with 16 skips before the additional missing-metadata test; a final
+complete run and Windows CI results are recorded in the PR. The syntax check
+used inline scripts extracted from the production HTML.
+
+## What remains unverified
+
+No physical Steam dongle, Razer headset, live Wi-Fi Direct session, channel
+reading from real wireless hardware, dropout reproduction or recovery action.
+The English netsh parser is fixture-tested; localised or denied readings remain
+unknown. Windows CI validates query execution on hosted virtual hardware.
+There is no adapter disable action because the available evidence cannot
+reliably identify a safe extra instance.

+# Frame Control extensions
+
+Extensions add a local panel to Frame Control's Tools page. They are plain HTML,
+CSS and JavaScript. Frame Control discovers them from its per-user data folder;
+there is no build step, server process, or headset installation. Open an extension
+to run it. Closing it unloads its page.
+
+## Install the example
+
+Copy [`examples/extensions/headset-glance`](../examples/extensions/headset-glance)
+to the `extensions` folder shown on Tools → Extensions, then select **Refresh**
+and **Open Headset Glance**. The folder is normally:
+
+- Linux: `~/.local/share/frame-control/extensions`
+- macOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Frame Control/extensions`
+- Windows: `%APPDATA%\Frame Control\extensions`
+
+To remove it, close the panel and delete only its `headset-glance` folder. The
+desktop app reads the folder on its computer. The iPhone app and the opt-in
+[SteamVR headset panel](headset-app.md) read the folder on the Frame. To use an
+extension in VR, copy its folder to
+`steamos@frame:~/.local/share/frame-control/extensions/`, then select
+**Extensions → Refresh extensions → Open** in the headset panel. The iframe,
+read-only bridge and asset rules are the same there.
+
+## Make an extension
+
+Create `extensions/your-id/manifest.json` and `index.html`. IDs use lowercase
+letters, digits and hyphens, start with a letter, and are at most 40 characters.
+The manifest ID must match the folder name:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "your-id",
+  "name": "Your feature",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "apiVersion": 1,
+  "description": "What the panel does.",
+  "entry": "index.html"
+}
+```
+
+`apiVersion` selects the Frame Control bridge contract, independently of your
+extension's own `version`. This app supports integer `1`; a missing field means
+`1` for existing extensions. Unsupported versions appear as errors on Refresh,
+and their assets are not served. Declare it in new extensions so a future API
+change can fail clearly instead of running incompatible code. The runtime
+`capabilities` reply below reports the bridge version too.
+
+Put JavaScript in a separate `.js` file. Supported assets are HTML, JS, CSS,
+JSON, PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP and SVG, all in the extension's top-level folder.
+Nested paths and symlinks are not served. No file may exceed 5 MiB. The panel
+uses an iframe with `sandbox="allow-scripts"`; its code has an opaque origin,
+cannot call Frame Control's HTTP API directly, and cannot navigate the app's
+top-level window. Content Security Policy restricts scripts, images, and
+`fetch` requests, but an extension can still navigate its own iframe to an
+external site. Treat third-party extensions as untrusted code and review them
+before installation.
+
+The version 1 bridge uses `postMessage`. Send a request to `parent` and match
+the numeric `id` in the reply. The [example JavaScript](../examples/extensions/headset-glance/main.js)
+shows a complete client:
+
+```js
+parent.postMessage({type: 'frame-control:request', id: 1, action: 'status'}, '*');
+// Reply: {type: 'frame-control:response', id: 1, value: {...}}
+```
+
+Supported actions:
+
+| Action | Value |
+| --- | --- |
+| `capabilities` | `{apiVersion: 1, actions: ['capabilities', 'status']}` |
+| `status` | `{connected, os: {version, build}, battery: {percent}, steamvr}` |
+
+`status` is the app's latest successful status snapshot. When that reading fails,
+`connected` is false and its fields are empty. No write actions are currently exposed. Future APIs
+should use explicit, narrow actions and keep the iframe isolated. A third-party
+extension is code you choose to run locally: inspect its files before copying
+them into the folder. A Decky plugin is a separate Steam client plugin and does
+not use this API.

+# Frame Control in the headset
+
+**Experimental, Frame OS 0.5.6.** Tools → Frame Control in VR installs a local
+panel in SteamVR's dashboard. It is a way to reach Frame Control while wearing
+the headset, independent of Decky's Quick Access Menu. The panel starts only
+after you opt in; its server binds to `127.0.0.1` and it uses a normal user
+service. No `sudo`, root filesystem change, or Steam client patch is needed.
+
+The companion copies its bundled UI over the existing trusted SSH connection.
+On the Frame, `frame-control-headset.service` runs a loopback server and one
+Chromium app window on gamescope. The window receives a dedicated `STEAM_GAME`
+id, so SteamVR registers `valve.steam.desktopgame.2001947813` as a dashboard
+panel. **Show in SteamVR** requests that dashboard tab; the wearer can select
+it again from SteamVR's dashboard. Closing the panel stops its browser and
+server. The service is not enabled at boot.
+
+The page shows battery, free home storage and SteamVR status. It can request
+SteamVR's main Game Mode dashboard, list and force quit a running game after an
+unsaved-progress confirmation, save an OpenVR screenshot to
+`~/Pictures/FrameControl`, and record the SteamVR mirror to
+`~/Videos/FrameControl`. Recordings have a 20-minute limit and use a separate
+work folder from desktop Frame Control's recorder; they may have no audio if
+the monitor source is unavailable. Captures made in standby can be dark.
+
+The page also discovers extensions from
+`~/.local/share/frame-control/extensions` and opens them in sandboxed iframes.
+It offers the version 1 read-only `capabilities` and `status` bridge from
+[the extension guide](extensions.md). Installing an extension still means
+copying its folder to the Frame; the panel does not download third-party code.
+
+The per-run UI key is passed in the URL fragment, removed from the address bar after load,
+and sent in the `X-Frame-UI` header. The key is absent from the HTTP request
+line and server log. The usual host/origin and anti-framing checks still apply.
+
+## Real Frame test, 2026-10-25
+
+On Frame OS 0.5.6, build `20261022.6153909`, the opt-in install started the
+user service, served `/headset`, read live `/api/status` from the browser, and
+registered a mapped Chromium window with SteamVR under the dedicated overlay
+key. The server rejected a request with the wrong UI key. A read-only status
+probe reported the user service running and the overlay registered.
+
+The unworn headset was in standby (`activity_level` 3). SteamVR reported the
+new overlay as `not_visible` even after `ShowDashboard`. An OpenVR stereo
+screenshot was a uniform dark frame. The documented temporary wake attempt
+(`power.turnOffScreensTimeout` 5 → 3600, `--handlewakeup`, `ShowDashboard`)
+still left the overlay `not_visible`; the setting was restored to 5 and the
+dashboard hidden. The X window's `xwd` image was black too. These observations
+prove panel creation and page/API execution, **not wearer-visible pixels or
+laser/controller input**. A worn-headset check is still required before
+describing the panel as visually verified.
+
+The test then removed the managed service and app bundle. Its unit became
+inactive, port 47813 closed, the SteamVR overlay disappeared, and the Frame's
+battery was 100%. Steam and SteamVR were left running. The browser profile and
+extensions folder were deliberately kept.
+
+A second test on the same build installed the expanded panel with the
+`headset-glance` example extension. The headset's authenticated loopback API
+returned live status (99% battery), discovered and served the extension, and
+listed no running games. The Game Mode dashboard request succeeded; an invalid
+force-quit app ID was rejected with HTTP 400. Screenshot and recording actions
+saved a PNG and a 3.6 MB MP4 in the headset user's folders. The recording
+reported an audio source. The per-run UI key was absent from the server log.
+After another wake and dashboard request, SteamVR still reported the panel
+`not_visible`. No wearer-visible screenshot or controller interaction was
+obtained. The test removed its example extension and captured media, then
+uninstalled the service. The unit, port, bundle and overlay were absent after
+removal; Steam and SteamVR remained running.
+
+## Remove
+
+Use **Tools → Frame Control in VR → Remove**. If the companion is unavailable,
+run:
+
+```sh
+ssh frame 'systemctl --user stop frame-control-headset.service; rm -f ~/.config/systemd/user/frame-control-headset.service; systemctl --user daemon-reload; rm -rf ~/.local/share/frame-control/headset/bundle; rm -f ~/.local/share/frame-control/headset/receipt.json ~/.local/share/frame-control/headset/server.log'
+```
+
+That command removes only Frame Control's managed panel code. The Chromium
+profile remains in `~/.local/share/frame-control/headset/profile` so local
+extension data is not discarded. Inspect and delete that folder separately if
+you no longer want it. Third-party extensions are in
+`~/.local/share/frame-control/extensions` and are never removed by this tool.

+  module link may mean a built-in driver. A bound driver does not prove Steam
+  streaming support.
+- **Permissions and udev:** `udevadm info --query=property` supplies a small
+  allowlist of driver, ID and tag fields. If available, the report includes USB
+  node mode, owner/group IDs and the current user's read/write access. Direct
+  USB access is not necessarily required by kernel networking; a restrictive
+  node alone is not diagnosed as the cause. No udev rules are installed or run.
+- **Radio blocks:** read-only WLAN rfkill sysfs entries are matched to the
+  selected interface's PHY name. An unrelated block cannot establish that
+  this adapter is blocked. Unavailable or unmatched entries remain unknown.
+- **Channel/band:** `iw dev IFACE info` provides the current channel and
+  frequency where reported; `iw phy PHY info` supplies enabled frequencies.
+  An idle interface may have no current channel. These observations do not
+  establish the channel used by a Steam streaming session, supported regions,
+  or the correct regulatory setting.
+- **Network managers:** visible `/proc/*/comm` process names show
+  NetworkManager, iwd and wpa_supplicant. `nmcli` reads only the selected
+  interface's general state, managed flag and driver. NetworkManager can use
+  iwd or wpa_supplicant as its backend, so coexistence is not itself a conflict.
+  If both backends are visible, the report suggests checking who owns this
+  exact interface. It does not claim a confirmed conflict or stop services.
+  Restricted process visibility and unverified backend ownership are explicit.
+
+Every command uses fixed read-only arguments, no shell, closed stdin and a
+three-second timeout. Optional tools are not installed automatically. Missing
+tools, denied reads, disappearing devices, and restricted VM/container hardware
+visibility remain unknown. A successful report is a snapshot, not a hardware
+health certificate. CLI exit 0 means collection is supported, not that the
+adapter works; unsupported platforms/headset-local mode return 2, as does an
+invalid/stale selector. JSON has schema version 1.
+
+The doctor never uses SSH, scans nearby Wi-Fi networks, opens a connection to
+the Frame, escalates privileges, loads drivers, changes security settings,
+changes channels, unblocks radios, changes network settings, or restarts
+services. Run it as your ordinary user, never with sudo. The app hides the
+entry on macOS, Windows and phone sessions; its API refuses collection in
+headset-local (`FRAME_LOCAL=1`) mode. The source CLI is intended only for the PC.
+
+Reports stay local unless you explicitly save, copy or share them. Exported
+fields include observed USB IDs/product labels, interface names, driver names
+and permission metadata. USB serials, Wi-Fi names, MAC/IP address fields,
+credentials, process arguments and raw command output are not exported. Review
+the report before posting it: hardware labels and local paths can identify
+parts of your setup.
+
+## Motivation and shipped comparison
+
+[The 23 October 2026 complaint](https://x.com/ExpressGinga81/status/2113457683143741720)
+says the Wi-Fi dongle does not work on Ubuntu/Kubuntu 26.04 while SteamVR works
+under Wayland. It supplies **no adapter VID/PID, driver, logs or established
+cause**. This feature helps gather that missing evidence; it does not claim to
+fix that complaint or certify Ubuntu/Kubuntu 26.04 support.
+
+Shipped **v0.4.18** has local network/gateway discovery in `frame_network.py`
+and headset connection management, but no local USB/driver/rfkill adapter
+report or adapter diagnostic UI. The existing `frame-doctor.sh` diagnoses the
+headset through SSH and is a different tool. This doctor never calls it.
+General SteamOS 3.9.5 / Frame OS 0.5.6 compatibility and OS backend transition
+notes are covered separately in
+[`docs/steamos-2026-10-compat.md`](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/blob/9c7110c1f48d160b0fb3c3b9f658d4937bd2032d/docs/steamos-2026-10-compat.md)
+([PR #164](https://github.com/saphid/frame-control/pull/164)). Existing PC
+route/SSID diagnostics use NetworkManager's `nmcli` with an `iwgetid` SSID
+fallback, independently of whether NetworkManager uses wpa_supplicant (SteamOS
+3.9.5 new installs) or iwd (upgrades). This doctor reads actual PC evidence and
+does not infer a conflict, hardware identity or fix from those OS defaults.
+There is no adapter-specific device observation in that compatibility work.
+
+## Verification
+
+```sh
+python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -p test_wireless_doctor.py -v
+python3 -m unittest discover -s tests
+```
+
+Tests use an explicitly synthetic USB `1234:5678`, sysfs trees, command replies
+and loopback HTTP. They cover an unbound USB device, module binding, multiple
+interfaces, PHY-matched and unrelated rfkill entries, channel parsing, manager
+coexistence, missing/denied commands, stale/injected selectors, export field
+filtering, authentication and refusal to probe in headset-local mode. The
+HTTP tests instantiate the handler without starting headset workers.
+
+Linux host collection was exercised on kernel `6.8.0-139-generic`: an existing
+PC interface was visible with its `iwlwifi` binding and unblocked PHY; `iw` and
+`nmcli` were absent and reported as unavailable. This is **not a physical Steam
+Frame Wireless Adapter test**, an Ubuntu/Kubuntu 26.04 test, or a headset test.
+No Frame access is part of this work.

+# Headset view in OBS
+
+Frame Control can send SteamVR's headset mirror and the Frame's output audio to
+OBS on a Windows, Linux or macOS computer. The helper uses the same `/dev/video99` video
+source and default-output monitor as **Capture & Live → Record**. It sends a
+local MPEG-TS stream; no port is opened to the LAN or internet.
+
+1. Connect to the Frame and start SteamVR. OBS runs on the computer; the Frame
+   already has `ffmpeg`.
+2. In the **Frame Control desktop app**, open **Capture & Live** and click
+   **Start OBS source**. Keep Frame Control open; **Stop OBS source**, switching
+   headsets, or quitting the app closes its SSH stream. It uses the selected
+   headset and the app's bundled helper.
+3. In OBS, add a **Media Source**, clear **Local File**, set **Input** to
+   `udp://127.0.0.1:15099`, and set **Input Format** to `mpegts`. The source
+   carries video and AAC audio. Use OBS's audio mixer to choose monitoring and
+   recording levels.
+
+From a source checkout, you can instead install `python3` on the computer and
+run:
+
+   ```sh
+   python3 scripts/obs-headset-source.py
+   ```
+
+Ctrl+C stops the checkout helper. The app closes a control pipe when you click
+Stop or quit; the helper then closes its SSH child, including on Windows. On
+Windows, install Python 3 and OpenSSH Client if Frame Control cannot find them.
+The Windows app Start/Stop path still needs a physical Windows/Frame test.
+If no first packet arrives within 20 seconds, or an active stream sends no
+packet for 10 seconds, the helper closes SSH and shows an error instead of
+leaving **Start OBS source** waiting or a frozen source running indefinitely.
+
+To share the OBS view in a call, see the short
+[Discord setup guide](streaming-to-discord.md).
+
+`--height 1080 --fps 60` increases quality and Frame CPU use. The default is
+720p30. `--port 15100` selects another loopback port; use the same port in
+OBS. If the Frame's PulseAudio monitor cannot be read, the helper exits with
+an error. Use `--no-audio` only when a silent view is useful. To inspect the
+stream without OBS, run `ffprobe -v error -show_streams
+udp://127.0.0.1:15099` in a second terminal while the helper is running.
+
+This is the composited, undistorted one-eye **SteamVR mirror**, not a raw
+passthrough camera feed. The mirror may be blank when the headset is idle or
+unworn. Whether active passthrough pixels appear in it is still unverified.
+The helper does not send a microphone. It is designed for one local OBS
+receiver. **Verified 2026-10-25:** the helper bundled in the Linux AppImage
+sent a real Frame stream to OBS 30's Media Source. OBS recorded 37.6 seconds
+with H.264 video and AAC audio; a brief 440 Hz tone played to the Frame's
+default output was present in the saved audio. The headset was in standby, so
+the video showed the standby mirror. Nobody listened to OBS's monitoring output,
+and audio/video sync and active passthrough remain unverified. See the
+[test evidence](evidence/obs-media-source-real-2026-10-25.md).
+The [follow-up Linux/Frame transport check](evidence/obs-followup-2026-10-25.md)
+measured packet continuity and a short MP4 recording on the current SteamOS
+build. The headset was still in standby.
+
+## SteamOS / Steam Machine PC host
+
+Use **Desktop Mode** on the SteamOS PC. Download the Linux x86_64 AppImage to
+your home folder. Make it executable and open it there; SteamOS has a
+read-only system root, so these steps do not use `apt` or change `/usr`:
+
+```sh
+chmod +x ~/Downloads/Frame-Control-linux-x86_64.AppImage
+~/Downloads/Frame-Control-linux-x86_64.AppImage
+```
+
+If AppImage mounting reports a FUSE error, try
+`APPIMAGE_EXTRACT_AND_RUN=1 ~/Downloads/Frame-Control-linux-x86_64.AppImage`.
+This extracts to writable temporary space and needs enough free disk space.
+Set up the Frame's SSH connection in Frame Control, then use **Start OBS
+source** before you add or activate OBS's Media Source. Install OBS as the
+`com.obsproject.Studio` Flatpak through Discover or your normal user Flatpak
+setup. In that OBS Media Source, clear **Local File**, set **Input** to
+`udp://127.0.0.1:15099`, and set **Input Format** to `mpegts`. Make a short
+recording and check both picture and sound before a stream. Use **Stop OBS
+source** in Frame Control when done.
+
+The OBS Flatpak's published manifest includes `--share=network`, which is
+needed for its local UDP receiver. Check your installed permissions with
+`flatpak info --show-permissions com.obsproject.Studio` if OBS receives no
+packets. Frame Control's helper sends to loopback on this PC; it does not
+require an open LAN port or an OBS plugin. The PC does not need a system
+`ffmpeg` package for the helper; encoding runs on the Frame.
+
+**Test limit:** The v0.4.27 AppImage launched on an Ubuntu 24.04 x86_64 host
+under Xvfb. Its helper sent H.264 and AAC from a real Frame to a local UDP
+receiver on that host. No SteamOS 3.9.5 PC, Steam Machine, Flatpak OBS runtime,
+read-only-root host, or physical display was available for this check. The
+SteamOS steps and Flatpak receiver therefore remain **untested on SteamOS**.
+See the [test record](evidence/obs-steamos-host-2026-10-25.md).
+
+## Known issue: game audio in OBS
+
+A Frame owner [reported](https://x.com/AzizahStellazio/status/2114147449468293171)
+that OBS **Game Capture / Application Audio Capture** can lose game audio when
+the headset turns on. OBS support attributed this to Valve/SteamVR. Frame
+Control cannot change that game-audio routing. If it happens, use Frame
+Control's **Start OBS source** and OBS **Media Source** steps above to capture
+the headset view and its output audio. You can also try OBS **Desktop Audio
+Capture** for the computer's output, then check its meter and a short test
+recording before you stream. Do not leave two active sources for the same audio
+unless you want duplicate sound.
+
+The real Frame/OBS check above proved that a synthetic tone from the Frame's
+output reached the Media Source recording. It did **not** use a running game,
+listen to the audio, reproduce the reported Game Capture failure, or measure
+audio/video sync. Real game audio while the headset is awake remains unverified.

+# Steam desktop sharing on a Linux PC
+
+**Tools → Steam desktop sharing** helps with Steam's own `steam -pipewire`
+desktop-in-headset flow on a local Wayland PC. It needs no Frame connection.
+It is separate from Frame Control's [PC in the headset](pc-in-headset.md),
+which remains disabled on Linux. Steam and the desktop portal own the capture,
+screen picker and headset flow; this helper does not provide a stream.
+
+## Launch Steam with PipeWire
+
+Save your game and use **Steam → Exit** first. Then click **Launch Steam with
+PipeWire**. Frame Control checks this user's local processes, finds `steam` on
+PATH, and requests `steam -pipewire`. This flag applies to that launch only.
+No Steam settings, login files or startup entries are changed. An existing
+Steam session is never stopped, signalled or silently switched.
+
+If Steam or a Steam launcher/helper is running, the button explains that Steam
+must be exited first. If the process inventory cannot be read, it refuses to
+launch. It also refuses root, SSH, headless, X11 and Flatpak-sandboxed Frame
+Control sessions. Run Frame Control as your normal user in the local Wayland
+desktop with its session bus.
+
+For a Flatpak-only Steam install without a `steam` command on PATH, the helper
+provides a manual command instead of choosing an installation for you. After
+exiting Steam, run `flatpak run com.valvesoftware.Steam -pipewire` in a local
+terminal. Flatpak Steam processes are included in the existing-session check.
+
+A successful request is **not confirmation of a picker or stream**. Steam may
+exit or fail after the initial check, and another launcher can race the local
+process check. Do not start Steam elsewhere at the same time. If nothing opens,
+run the command yourself in a terminal to see Steam's error.
+
+## Reset screen-share choice
+
+Click **Reset screen-share choice…** to request KDE's **Application Permissions**
+page. This button does **not** revoke anything or report a completed reset.
+Frame Control cannot reliably map a Steam runtime display name to a
+Steam-specific portal grant or restore token across backends. It never reads,
+edits or clears the portal permission store or Steam tokens.
+
+On KDE:
+
+1. Open **System Settings → Applications → Application Permissions** if the
+   button cannot open it.
+2. Find the entry for Steam. The Ubuntu 26.04 KDE report showed **Steam Linux
+   Runtime 3.0**. That display name alone is not proof that every session there
+   is safe to remove; verify the session belongs to your Steam desktop share.
+3. Under **Screen sharing**, choose **Manage 1 Session** (the count may differ).
+4. Choose **Revoke** for that verified session only. **Do not use Revoke All**
+   or change another application's grants. If ownership is ambiguous, stop.
+5. Retry Steam's desktop sharing flow. The reporter saw the portal picker again
+   after revoking that session. Results can differ by Steam and portal version.
+
+The reported entry sometimes appeared intermittently. If it is missing, do not
+clear other entries or the whole portal store. Check again when Steam's sharing
+session is present. If **Application Permissions** itself is missing on
+Ubuntu/Kubuntu, check your distribution's `kde-config-flatpak` package: the
+reporter needed that package and a reboot before the page appeared. Frame
+Control does not install packages, reboot, request root or change security
+settings. Older KDE modules may lack this page; other desktops receive guidance
+only, with no automatic reset or guessed permission target.
+
+The launcher uses `kcmshell6 --list` to verify the exact module, then
+`kcmshell6 kcm_app-permissions`. It does not substitute the older Flatpak-only
+page. A request to open the page does not prove that a window became visible.

+help for Steam's own desktop-sharing flow; Frame Control's Linux capture
+feature remains disabled. Live picker behavior still needs desktop validation.

+# SteamOS October 2026 compatibility
+
+SteamOS 3.9.5 is the **PC host / Steam Machine** update. It is not the Frame
+headset OS. The headset release discussed here is **SteamOS 0.5.6 beta**.
+
+## Finding and connecting to the headset
+
+SteamOS 0.5.6 stopped publishing mDNS names, including `frame.local`. Existing
+addresses in Frame Control still work if they resolve, and the app tries all
+saved addresses. After an authenticated connection through a `.local` name,
+Frame Control also remembers the numeric IP on that network. If the name stops
+resolving, it tries that IP and checks the same pinned SSH identity before using
+it. The IP is never reused automatically on a different network.
+
+In **Devices**, **Find on this network** checks the SteamOS devkit advertisement,
+known IPs and the local IPv4 `/24`. It offers scan results only when their SSH
+key matches the headset's saved key. The scan is bounded to a private subnet;
+it cannot find a headset across a router or on another subnet. Enter the IP
+shown in the headset's Quick Settings in the address field in those cases.
+For initial pairing, **Set Up Connection** accepts a manual IP and reuses an
+existing `~/.ssh/config` `HostName` before trying mDNS. A configured SSH alias
+continues to work. Frame doctor no longer assumes `frame.local`: supply
+`--lan <IP>` when a separate LAN route is needed.
+
+## SteamOS script names
+
+Session switching already prefers `holo-session-select` over
+`steamos-session-select`, after the Frame's `steamosctl` control. Desktop
+process detection accepts `holo-nested-desktop` and its old name. The sideload
+helper prefers `holo-prepare-upload` and `holo-delete` if a future devkit
+provides them, falling back to the vendored `steamos-*` scripts. The devkit
+service name `_steamos-devkit._tcp` is a protocol identifier, so it is not
+renamed.
+
+## SteamOS 3.9.5 Linux PC hosts
+
+NetworkManager's `nmcli` supplies the active SSID and route diagnostics; the
+SSID reader falls back to `iwgetid`. Neither depends on whether NetworkManager
+uses wpa_supplicant (new installs) or iwd (upgraded installs). The current code
+does not manage either backend or the Steam Frame Wireless Adapter. An adapter
+doctor belongs in its own PC host feature.
+
+## Android APKs and telemetry
+
+The 0.5.6 Desktop Mode **Add to Steam** action for `.apk` files is another way
+to make a Steam library entry. Frame Control already creates a non-Steam
+shortcut for every installed APK through the running Steam client's API, with
+its own persistent Lepton instance and artwork. It does not edit
+`shortcuts.vdf` or require a Steam restart, so no extra shortcut option is
+needed in its install flow.
+
+The battery reader selects a system battery by power-supply `type` and `scope`
+and reads standard sysfs fields. The memory reader uses `/proc/meminfo`.
+Neither relies on the performance overlay's labels or hard-coded SteamOS
+paths. SteamOS 0.5.6's improved overlay reporting does not establish a sysfs
+path change. A live check on build `20261022.6153909` confirmed that Frame
+Control's existing readers return battery and memory values. The dominant-eye
+setting is not read yet; recording metadata must not claim an eye until its
+source and effect on `/dev/video99` are verified. The same check found the
+`beta` update branch, but the normal user could not query update availability
+through Atomupd; no update was applied. See the
+[live evidence](evidence/steamos-compat-live-2026-10-25.md).

+1. Start the **OBS source** in Frame Control and add it to OBS as described in
+   [Headset view in OBS](obs-headset-source.md). Confirm that OBS shows the
+   headset mirror and that its audio meter moves before joining a call.
+2. In OBS, click **Start Virtual Camera**. In Discord's **Voice & Video**
+   settings, select **OBS Virtual Camera** as the camera, then turn it on in the
+   call. This sends the OBS scene as video.
+3. If the call needs the Frame's game sound, route OBS's monitored Media Source
+   audio to a virtual audio input installed on your computer, then select that
+   input as Discord's microphone. Keep headphones on to avoid feedback. Test
+   this in a private call first; a virtual camera alone carries no audio.
+4. Stop the OBS source in Frame Control when you finish. It closes the SSH
+   stream; OBS may keep showing its last frame until the source is hidden.
+
+Frame Control sends the Frame's **output audio**, not its microphone. Discord
+audio routing differs by computer and requires a separate virtual audio device
+if you want game sound in the call. This guide has not been verified in a real
+Discord call. The SteamVR mirror can be blank while the headset is idle, and
+active passthrough in that mirror remains unverified.

+# Windows Wireless Adapter doctor
+
+Open **Tools → This PC → Wireless Adapter doctor**, then choose **Read PC
+adapters**. It works without a headset connection. It only queries this Windows
+PC, with no automatic polling, changes, elevation or UAC prompt. It never
+contacts the Frame. A direct `#wireless` link on another platform explains that
+Windows is required.
+
+The snapshot shows:
+
+- Exact network PnP instance IDs, including non-present devices, with separate
+  presence, PnP status/problem code, operational state and media connection state.
+- Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter candidates and their distinct instance
+  count. `SWD\WIFIDIRECT\` is enumerator evidence; an English device-name match
+  is explicitly labelled **Name only**. A repeated row for one ID is counted once.
+- PC Wi-Fi interfaces, hardware-interface status and whether Windows has a
+  default route configured on an interface. Neither a route nor **Up** proves
+  that Steam uses that adapter. Multiple configured defaults are possible.
+- Reported channel and band, when `netsh wlan show interfaces` supplies recognised
+  English fields and an exact matching interface GUID. Missing, localised,
+  disconnected or denied readings remain **Unknown**. There is no name-based
+  channel association. A PC's router channel is not the Steam dongle's channel.
+- Possible spectrum overlap when an interface reports **2.4 GHz**, without
+  claiming interference. With no such reading, overlap stays **Unknown**:
+  unreported virtual/proprietary radios and audio dongles may still use 2.4 GHz.
+  Channel 1–14 alone does not identify a band: 6 GHz reuses low channel numbers.
+
+## Why there is no disable button
+
+[夕凪's report](https://x.com/Oo_yuunagi_oO/status/2113904070352343135)
+(24 October 2026) says extra Microsoft Wi-Fi Direct Virtual Adapter instances
+appear when their wireless adapter becomes unavailable, and disabling the newly
+appeared one *seems* to stop recurrence. This is useful owner evidence, but does
+not establish which instance would be safe to disable on another PC.
+
+Windows can legitimately create several Wi-Fi Direct virtual interfaces.
+A `#2` suffix is not a creation timestamp; non-present, down, or disconnected
+status is not proof of an unused instance. The inventory does not reliably map
+Steam's active radio/session to an expendable PnP instance. Disabling the wrong
+one could interrupt streaming, PC Wi-Fi, Mobile Hotspot or wireless displays.
+Frame Control therefore supplies evidence and guidance, with no disable,
+re-enable, driver removal or other write endpoint. It never changes security or
+location settings, requests administrator access, or bypasses execution policy.
+
+Before any manual changes, retain the exact instance IDs and compare snapshots
+before/after a drop with Steam Support. Do not disable a device based only on
+this report. A future disable feature needs a verified Steam adapter/session
+mapping, fresh protection for primary/active instances, explicit confirmation
+for one exact instance, and a tested recovery path that re-enables that same ID.
+
+## When a stream drops immediately or the adapter will not reconnect
+
+Read PC adapters **before** starting a stream, then refresh immediately after a
+drop. Compare the *exact* PnP instance IDs, presence and problem codes. Note
+whether the PC's own Wi-Fi drops too. A new `#2` name is not proof that this
+instance caused the failure. Keep the time of the drop and the two snapshots
+for Steam Support; the doctor does not save or upload them.
+
+The app shows **Changes since previous read** after the second click. It
+compares exact PnP IDs, known status fields and reported channels/bands; an
+unknown value is never treated as a state change. If the PnP source was
+unavailable in either read, it declines to compare devices. Each successful
+read becomes the baseline for the next one. **Forget previous read** clears the
+baseline and comparison; closing the app clears them too. The before/after
+comparison stays in local memory and is not uploaded or added to telemetry.
+Reported changes can reflect sequential query timing or a service recovering,
+not a fault or permission to disable any instance.
+
+To narrow a drop at stream start, try one condition at a time: wired PC
+networking instead of PC Wi-Fi, wired headphones instead of 2.4 GHz audio, and
+spacing the USB radio dongles apart. Recheck the stream after each change. The
+PC Wi-Fi channel in this report is not the Steam dongle's channel, so a matching
+or different number does not establish interference.
+
+If the adapter will not reconnect, stop the failed stream and close Steam's
+streaming session before touching its USB connection. Refresh the inventory. If
+the dongle is absent, reconnect it once at the PC, understanding that this
+interrupts any connection using it, then refresh again. If the **same exact**
+PnP instance now reports problem code 22 (disabled), review that instance in
+Windows Device Manager and its normal enable action. Do not enable or disable a
+different numbered instance by guesswork. For a missing device or another
+problem code, record the before/after ID and code for Steam Support; do not
+guess a driver or change security settings.
+
+These are user-controlled checks, not an automatic repair. We have no physical
+Steam Wireless Adapter dropout to reproduce and no verified mapping from a
+Wi-Fi Direct virtual instance to Steam's active session. An in-app disable and
+re-enable control remains deferred until that mapping and a recovery path are
+tested on real hardware.
+
+## Checking a 2.4 GHz audio conflict
+
+[Deko's report](https://x.com/DekoDrak/status/2113412044644897023)
+(22 October 2026) describes Razer wireless-headset interference and temporarily
+disabling the Steam Frame dongle. It also mentions a PC/Wi-Fi shutdown during
+Windows Update and asks whether the dongle caused it. The post does not prove
+that connection or specify a measured audio radio channel. Treat the suggested
+2.4 GHz conflict as a hypothesis, not a diagnosis of the shutdown.
+
+Try wired audio briefly, separate radio dongles with a USB extension lead, or
+compare PC Ethernet / an existing 5 or 6 GHz network. Change one thing at a time
+and record whether symptoms recur. The doctor cannot measure RF congestion,
+read an audio dongle's channel, identify a faulty driver, or prove a dropout fix.
+
+## Sources, privacy and limits
+
+The single local PowerShell process uses `Get-PnpDevice -Class Net`, its
+`-PresentOnly` variant, `Get-NetAdapter -IncludeHidden`, `Get-NetRoute` for
+IPv4/IPv6 defaults, and `netsh wlan show interfaces`. Each source reports
+availability separately. Access denial, unavailable cmdlets/services and
+unsupported features produce partial/unknown results; there is no permission
+workaround. Queries run sequentially, so even one snapshot can span a state
+change. One probe runs at a time, with a 20-second process timeout.
+
+SSIDs, MAC addresses and raw command/error output are omitted from the API/UI.
+PnP IDs and adapter/interface names can identify this PC; review before sharing.
+The tool does not send or save reports, and does not add these readings to
+telemetry or problem-report diagnostics. Copy relevant text manually if needed.
+
+The shipped basic network-identity probe (`frame_network.py`) finds a gateway,
+network name and Tailscale state. It does not inventory virtual adapters or
+check channel overlap. The new doctor is a separate, explicit PC query.
+
+## Verification
+
+`tests/test_wireless.py` checks duplicate identity, presence/disabled/link
+separation, ambiguous joins, partial sources, privacy filtering, 6 GHz/channel
+ambiguity, localisation, missing band and denied output. HTTP tests require the
+UI key, reject headset-local mode, and assert no SSH call. `tests/wireless.cjs`
+executes the production UI with boundary fixtures: navigation starts no query,
+clicks query once, unknown values and failure/retry remain visible, and PnP IDs
+and names are escaped as text.
+
+Windows CI also executes the real read-only PowerShell probe against the
+runner's network devices. That proves Windows query execution, not a physical
+Steam dongle, Wi-Fi Direct session or Razer headset. See the PR for exact CI
+results. An existing local Windows 11 VM passed 15 targeted tests (one UI test skipped
+because Node is absent), including the live query. PnP, presence, adapters and
+routes were available; WLAN was unavailable in this VM. See
+[VM evidence](evidence/windows-wireless-2026-10-24.md). No Frame was accessed; no physical
+adapter/dropout fix or RF measurements are claimed.

+# Wired connection doctor
+
+If you use a USB-C cable because the Wireless Adapter is unreliable, open
+**Devices & connection → Wired connection doctor** in the desktop app. Enter
+the headset's configured SSH alias and click **Check cable connection**. From
+a source checkout, run `python3 scripts/frame-wired-doctor.py --alias frame`.
+
+The on-demand check reads the computer's selected route to the Frame USB
+address, checks whether port 22 answers, then runs remote `true` over SSH with
+the existing pinned host key. It does not change network settings or the
+headset, accept a new key, or attempt a password. A failure is shown as unknown
+or warning; the doctor never claims a cable works from an IP address alone.
+
+The known address is `10.86.200.233` on the Frame's `10.86.200.232/29` USB
+network. A Mac with the Frame attached used `10.86.200.234/29` and completed a
+strict SSH login on 2026-09-28; see [the observed link](how-the-frame-works.md).
+If the route check says unknown, first confirm a data-capable USB-C cable, a
+visible PC network interface and a current Frame OS build. Other OS builds may
+use another subnet. If the port answers but SSH identity fails, connect using
+the normal pinned headset alias and resolve the pairing or key warning there;
+do not disable host-key checking.
+
+This checks **Frame Control's SSH route**, not whether SteamVR's game stream
+uses the cable. The Wireless Adapter and Steam streaming can follow a different
+path. No cable is attached to the Linux test host, so this exact UI has only
+synthetic route/SSH tests. Windows and Linux physical USB-C behavior, and a
+fresh wired readback on the current Frame OS, remain unverified.
+
+## If SSH works but the game stream stops
+
+If the stream fails on USB, Wi-Fi and the Wireless Adapter, but this doctor
+reports a working SSH route, check SteamVR on the **PC**. Frame Control's
+`frame.local` reconnect only restores its headset management connection. It
+does not restart PC SteamVR or repair the game stream. On a Windows or Linux
+PC, save your work and close the VR game. Exit SteamVR from Steam on that PC,
+then start it again. This can show whether a PC SteamVR session is stuck; it
+does not fix the cause of repeated drops. SteamVR on macOS is not a supported
+PC streaming host.
+
+Frame Control has no verified cross-platform command that safely stops only
+the intended PC SteamVR session. A forced restart could close a running game
+and lose unsaved progress. For that reason the app gives manual steps and does
+not add a one-click restart button.
