Docs: update screenshots and videos

FrameBridge (libopenxr_loader_generic.so, arm64-v8a + armeabi-v7a) rebuilt from the merged adapter sources: rect_clamp empty rects (#293), alpha_blend_emul (#329), foveation storage under Valve's FDM (#303), profile_remap profile report + detached-controller paths (#327/#328), action_dedup (#323), quad/cylinder snapshots, refresh-rate answer (#306), hide_fb_foveation (#349). The other targets rebuild to the committed bytes.

-them ourselves (GLES renderer in xrEndFrame: stutter, never showed 4XVR's VR video; Vulkan renderer: hung the

-`equirect_emul` (GLES only: a worker thread with a shared EGL context converts each 360° image to a cube map when it
-changes and draws one adapter projection layer from it for every frame with exactly that frame's views (the app's own
-projection views, else xrLocateViews at displayTime); xrEndFrame waits ≤6 ms for the worker's CPU submit, never the
-GPU. Learned in the headset: quads can't be a background (the Frame draws quad layers above all projection layers
-whatever the order: hid 4XVR's balcony/controllers), and the Frame doesn't reproject a projection layer from its own
-pose (images drawn only after head turns, or ahead from xrWaitFrame and sometimes late, wobbled);
-`equirect_flip/face/res/fps/stereo`), `stable_local`, `focus_hold` (only after 3 s FOCUSED, dips <600 ms),
-`aim_pitch/aim_yaw/aim_forward`, `refresh_rate`, `layer_debug` (diagnostics); focus_hold is default-on since 2026-10-05. 4XVR re-creates LOCAL spaces every 2–4 s
-(menu recentring suspect); its theatres are baked 7680×3840 equirect2 images (`assets/100.png` …). Test 360° videos
-(NASA, public domain) are in the Frame's ~/Videos; copies in `~/Downloads/frameport-360`. 4XVR's "Internal Storage"
-lists its own `/sdcard/4XPlayer`, not Movies: agent v25 `link_media` hard-links sent files into an app's own top-level
-folder (`app_media_dirs`), `frameport frame send --app <pkg>`, GUI game page "Add videos" (players) / "Add videos &
-files…". A 4XVR webm stereo swapchain was refused with XR_ERROR_LIMIT_REACHED (-10) → right eye grey; our projection
-swapchain was halved (1536/eye) in case memory is the limit (unverified). Frame data snapshot
-(SteamVR runtimes, Lepton scripts, logs; never commit Valve binaries): `~/frameport-research/frame-data-2026-09-30/`.
-Not yet verified in the headset.

-**Companion apps / intents (2026-10-03, tested with Stremio + 4XVR):** a second APK can be installed into a running
-Lepton container (`podman exec -i lepton-steamlaunch-<appid> pm install -g -S <size> < apk`) and runs there, VR
-included (4XVR in Stremio's flatscreen container: FrameBridge 72 fps, settings via LEPTON_ENV_FRAMEBRIDGE_CONFIG). But
-Lepton's services.jar (`ActivityStarter.execute`) intercepts **every** `android.intent.action.VIEW` with data (any
-scheme, explicit component or not, no property to disable): it writes `steam://openurl/<uri>` to `/lepton/steam.pipe`
-(= the host Steam client's `~/.steam/steam.pipe`) and starts nothing. So "open in external player" hand-offs (Stremio
-→ 4XVR) can't work inside Lepton; don't retry without Valve changing it. Lepton installs exactly one `*.apk` per app
-folder (two break `get_apk_path`).
-**Text input (2026-10-03, verified in the headset with Stremio VR):** Lepton's Android has no IME (`ime list` empty)
-and runs VR apps headless (`lepton.headless=true`): no Android window has input focus (`dumpsys input` FocusedWindows
-empty), so neither `input text`, a USB keyboard nor Steam's keyboard reach the app. `lepton-show-flatscreen` on a VR
-app keeps VR working (FrameBridge 72 fps) and gives the window focus; Steam's on-screen keyboard then opens for text
-fields. Unity's TMP_InputField on non-Quest Android waits for the system keyboard (`TouchScreenKeyboardShouldBeUsed`)
-and deselects a frame later unless `isKeyboardUsingEvents` (Android: `InPlaceEditing() && m_HideSoftKeyboard`);
-uGUI InputField's LateUpdate keeps the field when `InPlaceEditing()`. Patch `frame.unity_text_input` rewrites them
-(`mov w0,#0|#1; ret`) at Cpp2IL's **Offset** (= file offset; RVA differs by 0x4000 in Stremio's lib), Cpp2IL
-2022.1 pre-release (Unity 6 / metadata v31; Il2CppDumper can't), cached per libil2cpp sha. `/dev/uinput` has an ACL
-for steamos (Steam Input) → agent v33 `_keyboard` uinput keyboard ("Type on Frame") reaches everything with focus.
-Installing a second APK into a container with `pm install` re-runs Lepton's post-install hook on the **main** app
-(`lepton.active_app_id`; moves its files to /data/steam_app) and corrupts it on the next start (fix: touch the APK →
-re-bake); `cmd_real package install` skips the hook.
-**User reports (2026-10-04, issues #4-#10):** Steam shortcuts go to the signed-in account (`loginusers.vdf`
-MostRecent) else every account (agent v35 `library_users`; it used to refuse with >1 account → Play gave Steam's "Game
-configuration unavailable"); `launch` uses the shortcut's own appid and errors `NOT_IN_LIBRARY`, the app then adds it
-and plays. Unity IL2CPP fixes share one Cpp2IL run (`unity_text_input.Il2cppReturnPatch`, `ALL_TARGETS`, cache keyed by
-global-metadata.dat): `frame.unity_runtime_msaa_off` (OVRManager raises MSAA to 4x at runtime: "Switching to the
-recommended level" → Lucky's Tale restarted the headset; `OVRDisplay.get_recommendedMSAALevel` → 0) and
-`frame.unity_multipass` (Oculus XR Plugin multiview → MultiPass via `OculusSettings.GetStereoRenderingMode`; I Am Cat's
-right eye grey). Both checked against Toy Master's Cpp2IL output, not yet in a headset. VR4 quits itself (System.exit
-after the intro movie) → catalog `use_alt`. **Catalog changes reach existing games** without hardcoded migrations:
-recipes store `catalog_rev` (= `CatalogEntry.rev()`), `library._follow_catalog` re-derives non-user recipes whose entry
-changed; a maintained entry beats the user's shared copy when its `updated`/verified date is later (`catalog._newer`).
-**Round 2 of reports (2026-10-04):** VR4's campaign hang = one fragment shader reading an uninitialized loop counter
-(reporter's capture): vkshim `vk_shader_fix` setting (`<size>:<sha256>:<offset>:<words>`, from the recipe's `adapter:`;
-matched by size + SHA-256, words inserted into a copy) — on the device the module is fixed at load ("fixed shader
-module (6488 -> 6512 bytes)"); campaign itself not yet seen in a headset by us. Text settings (kind "str") stay out of
-the Game settings dialog (saving it dropped them). I Am Cat: `GetStereoRenderingMode` is inlined (no call sites) →
-`Il2cppReturnPatch.field_loads` rewrites the field read in `OculusLoader.Initialize` (Cpp2IL gives the field offset,
-`field:<name>`); verified with Toy Master: eye swapchains array=1 ×2 instead of array=2. Builds record `recipe_fp`
-(`patches/base.recipe_fingerprint`, `Patch.revision`): a changed recipe or revised patch shows "Update on Frame".
-Remembered Frames are found again after an address change (`Frame.relocate`: scan, same SSH host key, before
-login). Packaged apps show artwork by file path (`thumbs.use_file_paths`, #16). Diagnostics: this boot's kernel log.
-Device tests of requested games (2026-10-04, headless): I Am Cat, Myst 3.3.0, BattleGlide, Blade & Sorcery: Nomad
-start (RUNNING, frames). Roblox: SIGSEGV in je_free from libroblox.so ~3 s in (likely its anti-tamper vs the re-signed
-APK). BONELAB (Unity 2021.3 Vulkan, OVRPlugin 1.94): SIGSEGV with pc == fault addr in vkCreateInstance, called from
-libSLZQuestNative.so's Vulkan hooks into an unmapped (unloaded) library right after OVRPlugin's pre-init
-xrDestroyInstance; pinning openxr/vrclient libraries (RTLD_NODELETE) did NOT help — find the unloaded library with the
-linker's dlopen/dlclose logging next. Accounting+ (Unity 2017.4 built-in Oculus, libOVRPlugin + libvrapi): Unity
-never starts VR on the Frame (no OVRPlugin/OpenXR lines; runs as a 2D app), which is why its "controller setup"
-screen can't be passed — Unity 2017's Oculus device check, not the controller profiles. Cpp2IL can't read Unity 2017.
-The Frame's Android runtime (vrclient.so) knows oculus/touch_controller but not Meta's Touch Plus/Pro profiles
-(OVRPlugin suggests those too, routinely) → adapter `profile_remap`.
-Headset round 2 (2026-10-04): the Frame drops focus often (ms to 7 s; only some are presence/standby) → games pause
-or recentre (B&S Player.OnVRPresence → Teleport, BattleGlide/Unreal pauses); focus_hold now 1 s focused / 1 s max dip
-(longer must still pause). Myst crash = vrclient xrSyncActions race after FOCUSED → `sync_guard` (confirmed); its
-object glitches: app space warp suspected (FB_space_warp is advertised and used) → recipe `patch_disable_space_warp`.
-I Am Cat multipass: poses/times consistent, but every frame is submitted after the next xrWaitFrame (one period late;
-Zink + doubled draws) and the game clamps its physics step to 10 ms → judder while still; testing scale 0.8. Roblox's
-newest crash is on Fossilize's recording thread → vk_sanitize extended to own-engine libs (engine "Other").
-Accounting+: unity_oculus_check + native/ovrpshim (libfp_ovrp.so waits via ovrp_WaitToBeginFrame before Unity
-2017's ovrp_Update2) → VR in the headset at ~72 fps (2026-10-04), but stuck at "press any button" although input
-reaches its OVRInput cleanly (probe: both Touch connected 0x63, individual buttons, input focus 1) → works with issues.
-"outside of frame bounds" warnings stay (~2/frame) and are harmless.
-Steam library (GitHub #4/#21/#27, agent v38): shortcuts go to every Steam account (signed-in first; MostRecent isn't
-always the account on the Frame); stop_steam also waits for Steam's helpers; after the restart the agent re-reads
-shortcuts.vdf and writes once more if Steam put its old copy back (`shortcuts_lost`); lost again (agent v89): Steam
-ignores FramePort's entries on that Frame, so `add_devkit_entry` adds the devkit entry instead (`added` gets `via:
-devkit`) and only reports an error if that fails too. 0.6.3's Play
-auto-repair (`_add_then_play`) crashed (its job got a Job, not a reporter). Uploads resume on a transient OSError.
-Lepton's Android 11 has no clipboard service (134 services; checked with `podman exec … service check clipboard`):
-SDL/LÖVE apps crashed at start → `frame.sdl_clipboard` (`apk/dex.py`: in-place dex edit, nops one invoke, fixes
-the header checksum/signature; verified with LÖVE for Android 11.5, GitHub #24 Dramatic Shape). Godot 4.2-4.4 (Kotlin `as ClipboardManager`,
-GitHub #134 EndoparasiticVR) → `frame.godot_clipboard` (nops the `Intrinsics.checkNotNull` before that check-cast; Godot's
-clipboard methods return at once; analysis `godot_clipboard`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 10; checked on real godot-lib/templates
-4.2.2-4.4.1, not on the device; 4.1 and 4.5+ don't throw). 2D apps (vr_kind none)
-keep every suggested patch that isn't about VR (`needs_vr = False`), not a fixed list. FramePort on the Frame:
-`frame/local.py` (127.0.0.1, own key authorized; "This Frame (experimental)"; app data in
-~/.local/share/frameport-app because ~/.local/share/frameport is the agent's) and Steam library changes wait while
-Desktop Mode is open. Verified on the device 2026-10-04 (install + launch test from the Frame). Library updates on the
-Frame run one at a time (agent v40 flock): two quick uninstalls used to bring a removed shortcut back (Roblox).
-Headset round 3 (owner's verdicts, 2026-10-04): Blade & Sorcery works — its freezes were the headset's wear sensor
-flickering off while worn (vrserver.txt "HMD off/on" 0.5-2 s) → per-game `focus_hold_ms=2500` (only this game reacts;
-not a default). BattleGlide works (focus_hold). Myst works with issues (object glitches; space warp ruled out, its
-recipe keeps it on). I Am Cat works with issues (judder; scale 0.8 no help). Roblox unsupported (je_free in
-libroblox, also with the Vulkan shim). Installs skip the Steam restart when the shortcut is unchanged and wait while a
-game runs (agent v37). New default fixes in FramePort's code reach games already in a library: after every app update
-`library._follow_catalog` re-derives each non-user recipe once (setting `recipes.app_version`; tests switch it off via
-`library.REFRESH_ON_UPDATE`). Analysis fields added later: **bump `analysis/detect.ANALYSIS_VERSION`** (stored as `analysis.extra.analysis_version`); older entries whose APK is still there are analysed again at the GUI's start (background thread, not a job: ~8 s per 900 MB APK) and before a build (`pipeline.refresh_analyses`, GitHub #104); only `analysis`/`suggested` change, user recipes stay; an unreadable APK gets `analysis_failed` = the version (not retried until the next bump). Troubleshooting techniques: docs/PLAYBOOK.md "Debugging techniques". Unity `boot.config` "vulkan" substring mislabels GLES games as Vulkan
-(I Am Cat ran GLES); OVRPlugin's "Unavailable OpenXR extension: XR_FB_scene" is routine (no longer triaged).
-**Round 4 (2026-10-04):** XR_KHR_android_surface_swapchain is listed by the Frame's runtime but returns
-FUNCTION_UNSUPPORTED → adapter `surface_emul` (default on, `native/adapter/surface_swapchain.c`): an ordinary runtime
-swapchain is returned, the game gets a Surface from a SurfaceTexture on a worker thread (own EGL context, JavaVM from
-XrInstanceCreateInfoAndroidKHR), frames are read back (glReadPixels) and uploaded in xrEndFrame (Vulkan: own command
-buffer + fence per panel, never waits; GLES: glTexSubImage2D). I Am Monkey's intro works (owner-confirmed). SUPERHOT
-(Quest) quit at start: its cloud save folder was mode 1700 and Lepton's app writes through the folder's group →
-launch.sh `fix_perms` adds u+rwx,g+rwx (agent v41). Lucky's Tale: Unity's Loading.PreloadManager thread grows the
-native heap ~1 GB/s until the OOM killer (Frame freezes); no fix. `perf` works as steamos (paranoid 2; ptrace_scope 1
-blocks gdb/eu-stack/debuggerd) — see PLAYBOOK "Debugging techniques". QuestCraft downloads its JRE at first run into
-`files/runtimes/JRE` (Pojlib Installer); on the Frame it was missing (unpacked by hand, unverified). WiiCompiled: its launcher shows
-(lepton-show-flatscreen) but imports .wcgame files through Android's document picker (OPEN_DOCUMENT), which Lepton
-lacks (ActivityNotFoundException) → imported by hand: libmain.so + game.json → internal files/game/<profile>,
-DATA/ → external files/WiiCompiledOpenXRVR/DATA, MOD/ → .../RetroRewind6 (decompiled with jadx). Lepton has no
-picker at all: a FramePort fix would be an injected picker activity. Generated cover/banner art used to suppress the
-Steam placeholder set (no Steam art at all) → fixed in artwork/steam.py.
-**Steam library failures (GitHub #21/#30):** on some Frames Steam never loads FramePort's shortcuts.vdf entries (same SteamOS build and arm64 beta client as the dev Frame; IDs correct; file written before Steam starts): Play → console_log `GameAction [AppID <id>] … RequestingLicense → UpdatingAppInfo → LaunchApp failed with AppError_9` (= "Game configuration unavailable", Steam treats the id as a store app). Cause unknown; agent v42/43 diagnostics: `launch` returns `steam` (started / error + code / silent from console_log), `collect_diag` adds `steam_library` (real Steam dir, beta, Steam start vs vdf write time, entries per account, devkit games) + `steam-console.txt` (incl. Steam's `logs/shortcuts.previous.txt` if present; steamclient.so has "LoadShortcuts: rejecting attempt to load shortcuts: invalid account ID"). **Fallback (agent v43):** when Play gets AppError_9 the agent registers the game through Steam's devkit interface (what Valve's Devkit Management Tool does, MIT: `devkit-1 steam://devkit-1/<~/.steam/steam.token>/create-shortcut?response=<file>&gameid=<id>&directory=~/devkit-game` written to ~/.steam/steam.pipe; answer file / `.error`; `~/devkit-game/<id>/launch.sh` = link to the game's launch.sh, `<id>-argv.json` ["launch.sh"] (relative to the folder), `<id>-settings.json` {steam_play 0, compat_tool ""}). Steam adds it live (no restart), picks its own appid (read back from shortcuts.vdf by DevkitGameID), shows it as a normal non-Steam game named "Devkit Game: <id>" (OpenVR 0, but VR works: owner-verified 2026-10-04), art copied to grid/<appid>*. Ids: letter first, then letters/digits/_ only (spaces, '-', leading digit → "missing/invalid arguments"). Later Plays use the devkit entry; uninstall (`devkit_unregister`, `delete-shortcut` live) and purge remove it. Verified on the dev Frame: register/launch/unregister; the AppError_9 trigger itself only in unit tests. GitHub #42 (two Steam accounts, neither MostRecent): Steam rewrote the active account's shortcuts.vdf without FramePort's entries right after starting, and added the devkit entry live without saving it, so `devkit_appid` (vdf only) failed ("Steam added the devkit entry but didn't save it"); agent v55 `devkit_appid_from_log` reads Steam's `sanitize shortcut app id "~/devkit-game/<id>/launch.sh": replacing 0 with N` console line. GitHub #41 (one account): same Steam behaviour, and every install restarts Steam, which forgets the never-saved devkit entry. Agent v56: the log fallback reads only the current session's console_log.txt; Play re-registers a devkit entry that gets AppError_9; art updates also write the devkit entry's grid art (`copy_grid_art`). Open: why some Frames' Steam never loads or saves shortcuts.vdf (single account too).
-**Exit game (GitHub #36, 2026-10-04):** `Apps.TerminateApp` (what Exit game calls; reachable for tests through Steam's CEF devtools on 127.0.0.1:8080, SharedJSContext, `Runtime.evaluate` — a stdlib websocket client is enough) closed both a normal shortcut and a devkit entry on the dev Frame within 1-3 s. SIGTERM to Steam's `reaper` alone left launch.sh + Lepton (setsid) + the container running (an earlier headset launch ran on for 87 min); SIGTERM to launch.sh cleans up in ~4 s. Agent v44: launch.sh's 2 s loop ends the game when its parent (the reaper) is gone; `upgrade_launchers` (from ensure_host_fixes) adds that to existing launchers in place. Which in-headset exit path fails is still unknown. Screenshots on the Frame: all under SteamVR's appid 250820 (`760/remote/250820/screenshots`, screenshots.vdf has creation time, no game).
-**SteamVR dashboard at game start (2026-10-04):** the dashboard (Resume game / controller / VR options) was open whenever a FramePort game started (also over Lepton's 2D launcher). Steam's UI exposes `SteamClient.OpenVR.VROverlay.{IsDashboardVisible,HideDashboard,ShowDashboard}` (CEF devtools, `steam_js` in the agent). Agent v44: launch.sh starts `_dashboard_worker` (waits for FrameBridge's first `pacing:` line in launch.log, then hides a visible dashboard for 25 s, at most 3 times; log `<base>/dashboard.log`; opt out with env FRAMEPORT_KEEP_DASHBOARD=1). Verified on the dev Frame (dashboard shown → 4XVR launched via Steam → hidden ~5 s after the first frames); not yet seen in the headset. **Headset (ITR2, 2026-10-05): too late** — Steam shows its frame menu (`valve.steam.gamepadui.frame.menu`, vrwebhelper_systemui.txt `[PooledPopups] Showing`) ~0.3 s after the game's first submitted frame (FrameBridge `new layer:`), but the first `pacing:` summary comes ~8 s later; the owner had pressed Resume (`[HideDashboard] return_to_game`) before the worker looked. Agent v52: watches from the first `new layer:` line (incremental log reads, 0.5 s polls, 30 s window). Agent v59: watches 120 s and hides up to 10 times (the menu came back after 30 s in the owner's sessions). Agent v53: stops for good once the player opens the dashboard with the controller (`toggle_dashboard_action` in vrwebhelper_systemui.txt since the worker started): v52 closed it 60 ms after each press, and the game, paused for it, stayed paused.
-**Space warp / ITR2 (2026-10-04):** Into The Radius 2 (UE5, `libUnreal.so` + OVRPlugin, Vulkan) uses Application SpaceWarp (extra swapchains `376x376 format=97` motion vectors + `format=129` depth); #35 reports flickering textures. OVRPort's `patch_disable_space_warp` has no effect on UE5, and hiding XR_FB_space_warp in FrameBridge's enumerate doesn't reach the game either: **OVRPort's dispatcher offers/enables XR_FB_space_warp itself**. FrameBridge `hide_space_warp` (per game, off) hides it and strips `XrCompositionLayerSpaceWarpInfoFB` (1000171000) from the projection views (log `hide_space_warp: removed space warp info`); the game still renders its MV swapchains. Test build installed on the dev Frame; flicker not yet checked in a headset. Heuristic: UE5 + OVRPlugin shows it as an option (off). `equirect_emul` is suggested for Unreal games whose graphics API isn't detected ("GLES or unknown"); on Vulkan it switches itself off (Myst/Riven/ITR2): harmless, but Unreal Vulkan detection is a known gap.
-**PR #34 (merged 2026-10-04, Lucas-Mathieu):** `native/adapter/audio_metadata.h` patches Meta XR Audio Wwise (only build ID e1619e7f…, Batman: Arkham Shadow 1.4.1) so queued audio metadata isn't freed while the current audio frame references it (smoke-bomb crash). Verified headless: installs ("metadata reclamation follows …"), 72 fps; we added a once-per-second scan limit. Outside PRs: review source, rebuild `artifacts/` ourselves, merge locally (contributor's commit kept), push main.
-**Heuristics eval (2026-10-04):** `scripts/eval_heuristics.py "<VR CyberDeck Portable>"` → 19/44 recipes exact, 322/352 fields (most diffs: `frame.unity_text_input` suggested where older catalog recipes lack it; the rest are runtime-only findings: use_alt, vk_shader_fix, focus_hold, sync_guard, multipass). `PATCHED/` copies aren't scored (already converted).
+**Crash backtraces:** Lepton writes tombstones only to `lepton-logcats/steamlaunch-<appid>/logcat-crash.log` (launch tests return `crash_log`). Fossilize loads into every app (userdebug guest) → `frame.vk_sanitize` (`native/vkshim`); overport's dispatcher aborts on swapchains > 4096 px → `frame.swapchain_limit`; cylinder layers → quad strips (`cylinder_strips`).

+**Heuristics eval (2026-10-04):** 19/44 recipes exact (superseded by the 2026-10-15 numbers under Heuristics). → docs/DEVICE_NOTES.md#heuristics-eval-2026-10-04
 **Power (0.9, agent v47):** sidebar bar below the Frame card: Sleep / Restart / Shut down, each confirmed (`app.frame_power`, a running game asks again). logind answers CanSuspend/CanReboot/CanPowerOff = "challenge" for an SSH session but "yes" inside a user unit, so agent `power` runs `systemctl suspend|reboot|poweroff` from a transient `systemd-run --user --on-active=3` timer (the command answers first). Restart verified on the device (back in ~84 s, new boot id).
-**Proton default (agent v51, owner's choice 2026-10-05):** the newest **stable** ARM64 Proton is the default for PC VR games (`pick_proton`: asked-for name/alias, else newest installed stable, else any stable). Agent v49-50 defaulted to Experimental; the owner's headset A/B with Rick and Morty (Experimental 69 % reprojected frames, stable felt much smoother) reverted it. The game page's Customize shows `pcvr.proton_tool` as a dropdown (Stable (default) / Experimental = alias `proton-experimental`); `ensure_proton` installs a chosen one (it asks once more for the runtime Steam only names after Proton is installed; Experimental installed unattended on the device in 53 s). A PC VR launch test that fails on stable suggests Experimental (`pipeline.PROTON_TOOL`, `proton_alternative_worth_trying`, button "Try Proton Experimental and reinstall"). Remaining Rick and Morty stutter on head turns = the game rendering below the refresh rate (reprojection), not Proton.
-**USB cable link (verified 2026-10-05, cabled to the dev PC):** `usb0` is a USB **NCM** gadget (configfs g1: `ncm.usb0` + `ffs.adb`, Valve 28de:2460) set up by `usb-ncm-gadget@usb0.service`, which only runs with `ConditionPathExists=|/etc/systemd/system/adbd.service.d/steamos-devkit-enabled` = **Developer Mode only**. `usb-ncm-dnsmasq@usb0` serves DHCP with fixed `dhcp-host` entries: Frame 10.86.200.233, PC **10.86.200.234** (`frame/usb.py` FRAME_USB_IP/PC_USB_IP). Windows 11 binds its built-in "UsbNcm Host Device" (no driver); WSL mirrored sees eth 10.86.200.234. USB is high-speed (USB 2.0): upload 36.9 MB/s vs 11.3 MB/s home Wi-Fi. Frame→PC over the cable worked without a firewall change. `scripts/usb_autotest.py` (Windows via powershell.exe from WSL), `frameport frame usb-check`. Wizard "Set up with a USB cable" (`PairingServer(host=PC_USB_IP)`; the real bootstrap ran end to end over USB). Discovery dedupes by SSH host key and prefers USB > Frame hotspot > network (`discovery.dedupe`); a lost address is re-found by key (`Frame.relocate`, tested with a dead saved address).
+**Proton default:** the newest **stable** ARM64 Proton (`pick_proton`; owner's headset A/B); `pcvr.proton_tool` dropdown (Experimental = alias `proton-experimental`), `ensure_proton`, `proton_alternative_worth_trying`. → docs/DEVICE_NOTES.md#proton-default-stable-vs-experimental
+**USB cable link:** `usb0` is a USB NCM gadget (Developer Mode only); Frame 10.86.200.233, PC **10.86.200.234** (`frame/usb.py`); ~37 MB/s; `scripts/usb_autotest.py`, `frameport frame usb-check`; discovery prefers USB > hotspot > network (`discovery.dedupe`). → docs/DEVICE_NOTES.md#usb-cable-link
 **Catalog updates without a release (2026-10-05):** apps fetch `catalog/games/*.yaml` from GitHub `main` (`recommend/catalog.refresh_remote`: one API call `git/trees/main?recursive=1` + raw.githubusercontent downloads of changed blobs, cached as `catalog-gh-<sha>.yaml`, every 6 h; GUI at start + Settings → Data "Check now"; CLI background thread + `frameport catalog-update`). `catalog.load()` only reads the cache. A remote entry is skipped (`unusable_reason`) when it names a patch/adapter key this app doesn't register, has a field `CatalogEntry` doesn't know, or `min_app` > this version: add `min_app` (or rely on new patch ids) when a config needs an unreleased FramePort. Remote beats bundled unless the bundled entry has a later updated/verified date; the user's own entries still win as before. Off: setting `catalog.auto_update`, env FRAMEPORT_NO_CATALOG_UPDATE; FRAMEPORT_CATALOG_URL still overrides the source. So: **pushing a catalog change to main reaches users within 6 h** (their recipes follow via catalog_rev → Update on Frame).
-**Start activity / QuestCraft / ITR2 pop-in (2026-10-05):** WiiCompiled's VR part (`QuestActivity`, SDL, process `:game`) stays behind Lepton's flat window when the launcher is shown (`device.text_input_window`). `frame.start_activity` (opt-in; analysis `extra.vr_activity` = the original APK's activity with Meta's VR category when it isn't the launcher) gives that activity's filter LAUNCHER and every other LAUNCHER becomes INFO, per element (`axml.set_start_activity`); Lepton's own `apk-info-extractor --print-activity-name` (on the Frame under Lepton/liblepton/apk_extractor) then answers QuestActivity. **OVRPort gives every MAIN activity LAUNCHER + VR categories**, so the VR activity must come from the original APK's analysis, not the converted manifest. Lepton has no activity override (`APP_ACTIVITY` is reset when app_metadata.sh is sourced). QuestCraft reaches Minecraft 1.21.5 (Fabric, Vivecraft, Sodium; LTW "Large Thin Wrapper" GL 3.0 on the Frame's Zink) and stops at `OpenGL error 1282` in `WindowFramebuffer` createTexture (Minecraft's crash report in `files/instances/1.21.5/crash-reports/`, Pojlib's `files/latestlog.txt`); the vrclient SIGSEGV / "pthread_mutex_lock called on a destroyed mutex" afterwards is only the shutdown (Unity's render thread still in vrclient while the instance is destroyed). ITR2 "models popping in and out" in game: Unreal reads user config from **internal** storage (`lepton-data/internal/<pkg>/files/UnrealGame/<Project>/<Project>/Saved/Config/Android/Engine.ini`, not external); `r.AllowOcclusionQueries=0` there broke its menus (removed again). Vulkan shim `vk_query_slots` (two slots per occlusion query) never saw ITR2 create an occlusion query pool, and the run with it crashed (Unreal RenderThread SIGSEGV, caught by sentry-native: no tombstone; the backtrace is in `cache/sentry/*/.sentry-native/*.run/*.envelope` with module offsets) - left off. Next suspect: Unreal 5 mobile HZB occlusion reading depth stored with Valve's FDM injection layer; test = launcher `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=''` (Lepton then loads neither VALVE_rpo nor VALVE_fdm_injection, Fossilize still). QuestCraft: LTW overrides glGetError and returns 0 with `LIBGL_NOERROR` set; Lepton passes `LEPTON_ENV_<NAME>` to the app as `<NAME>`, so catalog `lepton_env: {LEPTON_ENV_LIBGL_NOERROR: '1'}` gets Minecraft past the GL error 1282; then black picture (see the catalog entry). FrameBridge logs `new layer` once per layer type per process and projection views only for the first frames, so a second session in the same process (Vivecraft after Unity) needs `layer_debug=1`.
-**Vulkan validation / ITR2 solved (2026-10-05):** Khronos' validation layer can't come from Lepton (its layer dir is in the read-only guest image; the Linux copies on the Frame are glibc) and a global `debug.vulkan.layers` property (via the LEPTON_GFXRECON_FP_PROPS trick) kills the container at boot. Working recipe: bundle `libVkLayer_khronos_validation.so` (Khronos android-binaries release, arm64-v8a, stored uncompressed) into a test APK re-signed with the game's key (`apk.sign.sign`), install with `frameport install <pkg> --apk`, and set the Vulkan shim's `vk_validation=1` (it adds the layer at vkCreateInstance; findings under the logcat tag VALIDATION in launch.log, each message ID capped at 10). ITR2's flicker + windows behind models = Unreal's Qualcomm shader-resolve subpasses with a depth resolve of a single-sampled depth attachment (VUID-04908/-03179); `vk_spec_fixes=1` drops that resolve (its TRANSFER_DST half never applies to ITR2: the main depth is transient). Valve's VALVE_rpo layer removed ITR2's fog (catalog `lepton_env: VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS: VK_LAYER_VALVE_fdm_injection`). `r.ViewDistanceScale=2` in the internal Saved/Config/Android/Engine.ini only exists on the owner's Frame (the catalog can't write internal storage yet). Launch tests: Lepton prints a transient "is not a running context" on the first start after an APK change (agent v54 `not_started` waits 30 s for "Boot complete!").
-**GitHub #38/#39 (2026-10-05):** PowerWash Simulator stuck at "Waiting.." on a reporter's Frame = Unity sized the right-eye image rect past its swapchain (rect 268+1656 on a 1920-wide swapchain; the runtime's recommended size differs per Frame) and SteamVR rejected every frame (`xrEndFrame failed -25`, XR_ERROR_SWAPCHAIN_RECT_INVALID), after which the game stopped calling xrEndFrame. FrameBridge `rect_clamp` (default on; sizes noted in xrCreateSwapchain; clamped layers count as swapped) keeps projection/quad rects inside their swapchain; triage `swapchain-rect-invalid`. Not reproducible on the dev Frame with `scale` (Unity's eye sizing isn't just the recommended width); no regression there (72 fps). The adapter's revision was NOT bumped (that would mark every installed game outdated): affected users rebuild. The Room VR (#38) = Unity's render thread SIGSEGV in libgallium_dri.so ~30 ms after the game recreates its eye swapchain with samples=4 (FrameBridge retries samples=1); the game's own code turns MSAA on (not OVRManager); candidate fix: hide GL_EXT_multisampled_render_to_texture (GL shim) - needs the APK to test. The launch test passed both (render thread dead / no frames): triage gap.
-**Headset round 2026-10-05 (evening):** I Am Cat's judder = repeated xrLocateViews of one display time returning
-slightly different poses → FrameBridge `pose_consistency` (owner-verified, works). Lucky's Tale freeze on touching a

-`logs/eyetracking.txt`, not vrserver.txt) → **`focus_hold` is on by default with 5 s** (owner's choice; C defaults
-too). The Room VR works (`unity_no_overlay_copy`). BattleSisters (Unity 2019.4 built-in VR, no libOculusXRPlugin.so)
-flooded "outside of frame bounds" ~2400/s and hung the GPU (kernel hangcheck, zink DEVICE LOST) → the ovrpshim frame
-wait now also applies to Unity 2019 without the Oculus XR Plugin (`UnityOculusCheck.legacy_loop`). Vader Immortal
-(UE4, stuck on the loading image after the intro, GitHub #49): VRP repacks carry a Frida gadget (`libfrda.so`,

-the Frame; `frame.ovr_trace` (opt-in, `native/ovrtrace`: 1138 exported ovr_* stubs → real loader functions, logcat

-**Unity built-in VR input (2026-10-05):** probe builds (`FRAMEPORT_INPUT_PROBE=1 frameport build …`; it logs

-presses reach the games' OVRInput. Accounting+ (Il2CppDumper v6.7.46 reads its Unity 2017 metadata v24, run on Windows)
-passes stance selection (NewtonVR grip/trigger) but its motion warning waits for `Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0/1)`,
-which Lepton never delivers (no focused Android window) → ovrpshim registers its own
-`UnityEngine.Input::GetMouseButtonDown(System.Int32)` icall (il2cpp_add_internal_call, after Unity's: resolve first)
-that adds a click in the frame a Touch trigger or A/B/X/Y is newly pressed (`unity_oculus_check` revision 3).
-BattleSisters (Unity 2019 InputSystem/XR InputDevices via `VrHandInput`): libunity's Oculus module (OVRPlugin

-Accounting+ works (owner, 2026-10-06).
-**Vader Immortal (UE4, GitHub #49, 2026-10-06, headless):** stuck after the intro on an in-game image (the splash
-quad ends ~6 s in; then the game's own projection frames, 72 fps, balanced xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame). Not the Platform
-SDK (`frame.ovr_trace`: only user + entitlement, both answered) and not the repack's Frida gadget (OVRPort's
-`patch_clean_up_frida` removes its loadLibrary). It **leaks ~430 GPU mappings (/dev/dri/renderD128) and ~20 MB a
-second** (6.5 GB + swap after 5 min, then 26 fps): page-fault stacks (perf -e page-faults, offsets resolved with the
-process maps + vrclient.so's own symbols; its text segment is at file offset + 0x4000) end in SteamVR's runtime:
-`xrBeginFrame → CSxrCompositorOpenVR::BeginFrame → SubmitExplicitTimingData → CVRCompositorSharedTextures::
-BeginGPUTimingCommandBuffer` and `xrEndFrame → CVRCompositorClient::SubmitWithArrayIndexAndTime`. Ruled out: the
-layer color scale/bias + image layout structs (FrameBridge `strip_color_bias` 1/2, diagnostic), Valve's Vulkan
-layers (VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=""), array swapchains in general (Lucky's Tale/I Am Cat flat). Kernel tracepoints aren't
-allowed for steamos. FrameBridge: `layer_debug` logs xrDestroySwapchain and per-5 s xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame counts;
-`frame_balance` (ends an open frame before the next begin) exists but Vader never leaves one open. Next (built,
-not yet run: the Frame slept): `layer_debug` also counts xrAcquire/Wait/ReleaseSwapchainImage per 5 s (hooked only
-with layer_debug, after the other conditional hooks) to see whether Vader skips a wait or release: it doesn't (361/361/361 per 5 s).
-FrameBridge `snapshot=N` (`snapshot_gl.c`, GLES): every N s the left-eye image the game submits is read back on its
-own context and saved as `files/fb_snap_0-7.ppm` (quarter size) — headless launches show a black headset view, this
-shows what the game draws. Vader: Lucasfilm logo (an OBB mp4: video works), then its loading card (portrait + segmented
-bar) that never advances; the async loader thread sleeps and OBB reads stop (~168 MB of a 2.7 GB pak).
-**SteamVR overlay apps (agent v75, 2026-10-10):** host OpenVR overlays (VRApplication_Overlay) are composited over Lepton (Quest) games on the Frame (probe checker seen over 4XVR in the headset view, `native/vroverlay_probe`); Windows ones register through Proton's vrclient too (Temporal Reality's Windows build created its overlays; fpsVR never reaches OpenVR under Proton). Detection `analysis/vroverlay.py` (bundled `.vrmanifest` with `is_dashboard_overlay`, else OpenVR + IVROverlay + self-registration markers, engine Other; Rift fingerprint `RIFT_ANALYSIS`), patch `pcvr.vr_overlay` (param autostart), Linux entry fields `vr_overlay`/`vr_overlay_autostart` (game page switch); agent `register_vr_overlay`/`unregister_vr_overlay`/`launch_vr_overlay` (IVRApplications via ctypes, live; manifest `<anchor>/frameport-overlay.vrmanifest`, the app's own key, binary = launch.sh). **SteamVR on the Frame reads only `binary_path_linux_arm`** (binary_path_linux alone is skipped). Overlay apps: no launch test, no Linux Steam-parent watchdog (`FRAMEPORT_OVERLAY`), not a "running game". A Steam overlay-app shortcut and a game shortcut run together. SteamVR's SetApplicationAutoLaunch didn't persist on the dev Frame (the watch never started by itself) → **agent v76: FramePort's own autostart**: the deployment's `overlay.autostart` is the source of truth; `ensure_host_fixes` (`ensure_overlay_service`) keeps the user service `frameport-vr-overlays.service` (`_vr_overlay_watch`, 5 s polls of the known vrserver's /proc stat) only while an overlay app has autostart on (register/unregister, uninstall, purge and the kill switch `~/.local/share/frameport/vr-overlays.disabled` / `FRAMEPORT_NO_OVERLAY_AUTOSTART` update it); a new vrserver (pid + start time, kept in `~/.cache/frameport-vr-overlays.json` across agent updates) → child `_vr_overlay_round`: wait for IVRApplications, 15 s grace, `launch_vr_overlay` for apps not running (folder process or GetApplicationProcessId); log `~/.local/share/frameport/vr-overlays.log`. Dev Frame: adopted the running vrserver, skipped the already running watch; a start after a real SteamVR start/boot is not yet seen. Details: docs/FRAME_RUNTIME.md "Overlay apps".
-**Vader's leak solved / AC Nexus flips (2026-10-14):** Vader Immortal leaves GL errors pending on its context; SteamVR's GL interop (`openxr_graphics_gl_openvr.cpp`, `xrclient_<pkg>.txt` in Steam's logs: `SXR_GL_CHECK: error:0x502 ... glGenTextures`) takes the stale error as its own failure once, and from then on `CVRCompositorSharedTextures::BeginCommandBuffer` allocates a command buffer every frame (perf page-fault stacks; ~430 renderD128 mappings + 22 MB/s). Adapter `gl_error_clear` (GLES, catalog on for Vader ep1-3) clears them before xrCreateSwapchain/xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame: flat memory, no SXR_GL_CHECK (headless). The per-game `xrclient_<pkg>.txt` logs are worth reading for runtime errors. The Frame's runtime caps swapchains per session (XR_ERROR_LIMIT_REACHED from ~15; AC Nexus asks for more): flip emulation now turns quads upright in place (scratch VkImage, once per acquire; transfer usage added to single-layer colour swapchains) instead of a shadow swapchain per quad, which ran into the cap (#138). Headless sessions don't draw AC Nexus's panels (adapter `flip_dump` saves before/after images of flipped quads, for headset runs).
-**Unreal's self-restart (agent v90, 2026-10-13):** UE 4.21+ restarts the app once after its first-run shader
-precompile ("optimizing" screen; `r.ProgramBinaryCache.RestartAndroidAfterPrecompile`): it starts its own LAUNCHER
-activity and calls System.exit(0); Lepton ends the container with the first process (the restarted one with it).
-Skipping `AndroidThunkJava_RestartApplication` or the cvar = 0 (accepted via UE4CommandLine.txt `-ini:`) left Sports
-Scramble on that level for good. launch.sh (RESTART_BLOCK, `upgrade_launchers` adds it) starts Lepton once more when
-`_restart_requested` sees the app's own LAUNCHER start (system log, uid >= 10000) <= 5 s before its exit; first run
-kept as `launch-before-restart.log`; `FRAMEPORT_NO_RESTART=1` off. Owner-verified with Sports Scramble's first start (2026-10-13).
-**xrWaitFrame runs ahead (Journey of the Gods, 2026-10-14, owner-verified):** with real frames (headset on) the
-Frame's runtime sometimes returns from xrWaitFrame at once with a display time less than one refresh after the frame
-just submitted, and then rejects the second submission for that refresh (`VRCompositorError_AlreadySubmitted` in
-Steam's `logs/xrclient_<pkg>.txt`; FrameBridge pacing above the display rate). VrApi games that render faster than
-the display ran ahead (~120 submits/s at 90 Hz) and the scene slid and snapped back. The VrApi bridge re-waits when
-the new display time is under half a period after the last submitted one (`pacing 2s:` counters). Headless runs only
-submit empty frames and never show it. Lepton's logcat mirror also missed the whole verifying session (launch.log =
-Lepton's own lines only): the keeper now catches a silent mirror too (agent v91).
-**Lepton's logcat mirror dies (agent v67, 2026-10-09; v91 2026-10-14):** Lepton's mirror (`podman exec -it <container> logcat -v threadtime,color`) fails three ways: `logcat: Unexpected EOF!` right after the game starts, `Logcat read failure`, or running and writing nothing at all (Lepton 3.0.5: seen twice on 2026-10-14, once in the owner's session, once headless). launch.sh's `_logcat_keeper` reads `podman exec <container> logcat -v threadtime -T <epoch>` itself into launch.log after a failure line or 20 s without a logcat line (from the launcher's start when the mirror never wrote, else from just before its last line), restarts it from where it ended (≤5), stops it when Lepton's coloured lines come back, sets the container's log buffer to 16 MiB (`logcat -G`), and logs every decision to `<base>/logcat-keeper.log`. Checked on the dev Frame: a mirror killed mid-game (hand-over without a gap) and a silent mirror (the whole session recovered).
-**Double launch (agent v57, 2026-10-06):** a second Play while Lepton still boots (~10 s with nothing to see) made
-the second Lepton stop the first one's container ("Waiting for steamlaunch-<appid> (PID …) to exit", exit 137
-"(starting)", "Clearing baked app data due to early exit") and both died (Vader, BattleSisters). launch.sh now takes
-`flock` on `<base>/.launch.lock` (fd 9, inherited by Lepton; the watchdog and dashboard helpers close it with
-`9>&-`); a second launch exits 0 and logs to `<base>/launch-dup.log`. `upgrade_launchers` adds it to existing
-launchers. Verified on the device (second launch during boot: ignored, the first kept running). Vader on its loading
-card ignores input too (owner pressed/held every button: presses reach the runtime, the card never changes).
-**Issue triage round (2026-10-06, owner's headset):** vibration in OVRPlugin games = 2 s vibrations updated per frame and
-stopped with amplitude 0; FrameBridge turns amplitude 0 into xrStopHapticFeedback (else each buzz ran 2 s), haptic_fix
-uses the envelope RMS (was its peak), per-game `haptic_scale` → Creed/The Boys/Jurassic World fine. Lambda1VR (TBXR):
-loader named by Build.MANUFACTURER (`frame.tbxr_vendor`), no graphics extension enabled (FrameBridge adds
-XR_KHR_opengl_es_enable + asks for the requirements on -50), always multisampled render-to-texture (GL shim gives
-single-sampled stand-ins when GL_EXT_multisampled_render_to_texture is hidden) + its xash/ data → works. Jurassic World:
-`frame.vrapi_stub`. Metro Awakening: contributor's vkshim fixes + hide_space_warp + no VALVE_rpo (jumping polygons like
-ITR2). Pinball FX VR: hide_space_warp (stutters). Eleven: a Meta online request fails after platform init → needs Meta
-services. Star Wars Tales: top half black + freeze after loading; ruled out: asset-file paks (never requested), Valve
-foveation (off: no change), GL errors (MESA_DEBUG=1: none), EGL_BAD_ACCESS once in OVRPlugin init (harmless); the game's
-eye image reads back black. BlazeRush: VrApi bridge exports + ovr*_ToString stubs + avatar stub get it to the menu room
-at 72 fps, full input reaches it (diagnostics `input 5s`: Touch type only, sticks 1.0, buttons, poses 0x8f), but the room
-draws no controllers and ignores input; avatar loader forced to its "Failed" path (no logged-in user) changed nothing.
-`frame.ovr_trace` can't trace Unity games (P/Invoke dlsym; nothing imports ovr_*). Headless: the VrApi bridge's 30 s
-head-pose deadline ends VR mode without a worn headset (not a game bug).
-**Lepton storage (2026-09-30):** each app's /sdcard (= /storage/emulated/0 → `<base>/lepton-data/external`) has `Movies`/`Download`/`Documents` symlinked to the Frame's `~/Videos`/`~/Downloads`/`~/Documents` (liblepton/mounting.sh, only if they exist at start); agent v24 `storage_targets` reads that mapping. Android's MediaProvider canonicalises paths to /home/steamos/... and rejects every file ("doesn't appear under [/system/media...]"), `sm list-volumes` is empty: the media index never works, apps must browse folders. Lepton installs with `adb install -g` (runtime permissions granted, MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE too). Files: `install/files.py`, `frameport frame send|storage`, GUI Files tab (formerly Frame → Send files).
-**SteamVR per-app settings (2026-09-30):** editing steamvr.vrsettings while SteamVR runs is lost; the web API (127.0.0.1:27062 /app/setsettings) needs `x-steamvr-secret`. `native/vrsettings` = `fp_vrsettings.exe` (freestanding, OpenVR `FnTable:IVRSettings_003` as a Utility app, loads SteamVR's bin/win64/openvr_api.dll) sets them live and SteamVR persists them: section `steam.app.<shortcut appid>`, keys `preferredRefreshRate` (float) and `motionSmoothingOverride` (0 global, 1 on, 2 off, 3 always). Steam Link (vrlink) lists the Frame's rates 72/80/90/96/108/120/144 in vrserver.txt and follows the per-app preference ("host preferred N Hz"; whether the key is honoured is unverified in-headset yet). Judder metric: vrcompositor.txt session summary dropped + "Timed out. N total" (Stormland: 0 dropped but 313 timeouts in 2 min); fpsVR (`%LOCALAPPDATA%\fpsVR\*.json`, 0.1 ms histograms) gives p99 CPU/GPU ms. `pcvr.steamvr_tuning` (default on, PC only) applies on Play: highest rate whose budget ≥ p99×1.05, at least one step down, smoothing on.

-**Language packs (merged from PR #20, 2026-10-04):** overport's `libovrplatformloader.so` is a dispatcher that `dlopen`s Meta's own loader (`libovrplatformloader_meta.so` / `_meta_q1.so`, also `libpxrplatformloader.so`) and keeps its own message queue; `ovr_LanguagePack_GetCurrent/SetCurrent` are 8-byte `return 0` stubs in it, `ovr_AssetFile_GetList` forwards to Meta's loader. `frame.langpacks` (opt-in, `native/langpack`) serves `<tag>.lang` files from the game's data; `elf.hide_exports` marks the loader's exports STB_LOCAL (bionic and glibc only match GLOBAL/WEAK; verified for glibc, bionic's `is_symbol_global_and_defined` is from memory). `libfp_langpack.so` is built here (`python native/build.py --only langpack`) and committed. Owner-verified 2026-10-04: Deadpool VR with only `en.lang` and the patch on plays English dialogue and runs normally (headless launch tests show 2-6 fps while it loads: not a regression sign). A dispatcher answer that arrives after we answered the timed-out GetList is dropped (one answer per request); games already in a library get `lang_packs` filled after an app update (`library._refresh_data_fields`). The library logs to logcat under the tag `fp_langpack` (dirs looked in, packs found, every language-pack call), so it shows up in the game's `launch.log`; an `ovr_AssetFile_GetList` the dispatcher leaves unanswered for 1.5 s is answered with our packs alone. Deadpool VR (Unreal) accepts a pack only when its `Metadata` equals the game's own version string (`ULanguagePacksSubsystem` compares it with `%s.%s.%s.%s.%s` built from the build info, e.g. `1.0.40.356975.Quest` = versionName; found by disassembling `libUE4.so`): the patch writes the APK's versionName into the library (`@FPMETA@` slot, `with_metadata`), `FRAMEPORT_LANGPACK_META` overrides it. Deadpool VR (2026-10-04, headset): German became selectable with that Metadata, but dialogue stayed silent (even English once reported as a pack) while the path was spelled `/sdcard/Android/obb/<pkg>/x.lang`; with the `/storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/<pkg>/x.lang` spelling (Unreal's own, now listed first in `scan_dirs`) German dialogue plays. `FRAMEPORT_LANGPACK_SKIP=<tags>` or a file `fp_langpack_skip` in the obb folder leaves packs out of the list (experiments).

-**Cube swapchains (GitHub #107, 2026-10-09):** the Frame's runtime refuses `faceCount=6` swapchains (-2,
-XR_ERROR_RUNTIME_FAILURE); OVRPlugin ignores that ("CreateSwapchain for eye 0: 0x0, 0 stages") and crashes in
-ovrp_EndFrame4 (memset). FrameBridge `cube_standin` (default on, `native/adapter/cube_standin.c`) serves a refused cube
-swapchain as one GL cube-map texture in the app's context (GLES only) and drops its layers. Verified headless with

-**Hardware video decoding (PR #96, PR #128 by Lucas-Mathieu, adapted 2026-10-10, agent v71):** `native/hevc` = one
-OMX plugin `OMX.frameport.{avc,hevc,vp9}.decoder` (FFmpeg v4l2m2m on Iris /dev/video-dec0, FFmpeg software decoders as
-fallback inside the component, Vulkan copy for big native surfaces). The connection installs it once per Frame
-(`ensure_video_codec` → agent `video_codec_status`/`install_video_codec`: `~/.local/share/frameport/video-codec/versions/
-<manifest sha>` + `current` symlink). A Frame keeps the same or a newer `revision` (no flip-flop between PCs) → **bump
-`revision` in native/hevc/build.py with every artifact change**; a failed install isn't retried during the connection.
-Per game: only launchers of games whose recipe has `frame.hw_video_decode` (install stage, no APK change; suggested

-applies where vk_sanitize can: Unreal/Other arm64) writes each distinct SPIR-V module once to
-`files/fp_vk_shaders/<size>_<sha256>.spv` (tmp + rename) and one `index.txt` line per vkCreateShaderModule (`<seq> <ms>
-<unix ms> <name> new|known|again|failed`, O_APPEND) to find the module behind a GPU hang. Agent v72 `collect_diag`
-returns `shaders` (newest modules of fp_vk_shaders + fp_spirv, ≤4 MB each, base64) → bundle
-`games/<pkg>/target/shaders/`. Triage `gpu-hang` suggests both dumps; `triage.graphics_api` (FrameBridge's
-xrCreateSwapchain formats: <0x1000 Vulkan, else GL) keeps only the session's API's (`API_ONLY`). Host-tested only.
-Agent v74: a reporter's hang came ~10 s after the last new module, so the culprit wasn't among the newest written →
-with an index naming modules, `shader_dumps` sends every module of the index's **newest session** (after the last
-`# start`), deduplicated, last used first, each ≤4 MB, ≤30 MB in all (`session` = how many it names) + that session's
-index lines; no index (fp_spirv) = the old newest-by-mtime 4 MB. One JSON line (~40 MB base64) over the SSH channel
-is read whole by `Frame.agent` (fine at that size); `_Writer.fit` drops the least recently used modules last, after
-cutting logs, to stay under the 24 MB zip limit.
-**Unreal OBB check (GitHub #159, 2026-10-10):** Epic's DownloaderActivity checks OBB name+size (OBBData), then with `bVerifyOBBOnStartUp=true` CRCs the whole OBB; its screens are invisible in Lepton (stuck at `Displayed …/.DownloaderActivity`, triage `unreal-obb-check-stuck`) → `frame.unreal_skip_obb_check` (analysis `unreal_verify_obb`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 11) flips the manifest boolean (`axml.set_meta_data_bool`); skips only the CRC pass. Host-tested only.
-**Issue round 2026-10-12 (agent v83):** Lepton pastes STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH unquoted into `sh -c "ln -s …/internal/<pkg>
-/data/data/<pkg>"` (mounting.sh): a game on a card named "Steam Frame 512g" got no internal storage (no saves/prefs;
-Beyond Sandbox's EOS then looped `createKeychain→resetKeychain` forever, 1.85 GB log). Quest launchers with an unsafe
-path now `ln -sfn <base> ~/.local/share/frameport/lepton-paths/<pkg>` at every start and give Lepton that path
-(`app_dir_lines`/`set_app_dir`/`launcher_base`; upgrade_launchers converts; deployment.json keeps the real base).
-Verified on the device with a spaced copy of Stremio (old: the `ln` error; new: /data/data link, shared_prefs

-on Zink (threads busy in zink/disk cache), not a hang; VR4 (#199) reporter's patch.203 OBB truncated. Upload benchmark
-(`scripts/upload_bench.py`, #242): home Wi-Fi caps every method at ~11 MB/s; paramiko uses ~3x OpenSSH's CPU; Windows
-OpenSSH refuses FramePort's key file (ACL "bad permissions") until its permissions are tightened.
-**OpenSSH uploads (2026-10-15, #324/#242):** sftp escapes `* ? [` inside double quotes itself (and undoes it for
-put's destination), so `native_upload.quote` escapes only `\\`/`"`; Win32 sftp turns every local backslash into `/`
-(escapes too) → local paths go as `C:/…`. Logins: `Frame.auth` = the attempt that worked (app_key / user_key = a key
-file from Settings → Installing → SSH keys, library `ssh.extra_keys`, CLI `frame ssh-keys` / agent / password).
-OpenSSH strict (FramePort + Settings keys, IdentitiesOnly) unless auth was "agent"; a refused strict login retries
-relaxed (+ private copies of ~/.ssh/id_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa,ed25519}: OpenSSH skips its defaults once any -i is given, + the
-agent); `-v` key lines go into the error. FramePort doesn't add its key to the Frame for this. Windows-tested.
-**Meta user id (GitHub #182, 2026-10-11):** OVRPort's platform loader (runtimes 3.4.3-23204ea and -aa54c3f) answers
-`ovr_GetLoggedInUserID` (and two other callers) without a Meta account with a made-up id from a helper (`stp; mov x29,
-sp; bl random; …; mov/movk x9 = 0x53444835ec580000 (6e18); add x0, x8, x9; ldp; ret`), kept only in memory → a new id
-every start; Walkabout Mini Golf files saves under `Profiles/Oculus/<id>/` and lost all progress. `frame.ovr_stable_user`
-(default_on, detect = the game has libovrplatformloader.so) rewrites the helper to `mov x0, <6e18 + 32 bits of

-**Vivox API 31 (GitHub #101, 2026-10-09):** newer Vivox builds (Green Hell VR) call Android 12 AudioManager
-communication-device methods from `com.vivox.sdk.AudioChangeListener` with no SDK check → NoSuchMethodError on Lepton's
-Android 11. `frame.vivox_audio_route` (analysis `vivox_api31`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 4) makes every such method return at
-once (`Dex.return_early`: return-void / `const/4 v0,0; return v0`; nopping the invoke would leave a move-result the

-headless: Vivox initialises, 150 s at ~65-70 fps.
-**Steam Input gamepad for 2D apps (GitHub #162, agent v72, 2026-10-10):** Lepton's Android only has the Wayland seat's `wayland_touch/keyboard/pointer`. Steam makes its virtual pad (uinput, `/devices/virtual/input`, 28de:11ff, "Microsoft X-Box 360 pad N", ACL for steamos) only while the Frame's controllers are on (controller.txt "Steam Controller reserving XInput slot 0"; gone when they sleep), also with no game running; steamos-manager's 28de:0000 keys device isn't a pad (no BTN_SOUTH). Lepton's container root (system_server too) = steamos (`keep-id:uid=0`), so a bind-mounted `/dev/input/eventN` opens. Opt-in `device.steam_gamepad` (vr_kind none; suggested for `android.hardware.gamepad`/`LEANBACK_LAUNCHER`, analysis `gamepad`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 9): deployment.json `steam_gamepad` → launcher `GAMEPAD_LINE` (after the codec line: exports FRAMEPORT_GAMEPAD + LEPTON_ENV_SDL_GAMECONTROLLER_ALLOW_STEAM_VIRTUAL_GAMEPAD, puts `agent/bin` first on PATH) → `PODMAN_WRAPPER` (written by ensure_host_fixes; non-`run` calls go straight on; `run` imports the agent's `podman_run_args`; hands on to the next Podman after its own PATH entry with itself removed from PATH, so it chains to the codec wrapper either way round) adds the pads + `Vendor_28de_Product_<pid>.kl` (Xbox 360 layout). Verified headless with a uinput stand-in pad (Stremio's container: EventHub `classes=0x80000141`, our key layout, KeyEvent BUTTON_A dispatched); with Steam's real pad and a game: not yet. Pads made after the start aren't seen until the next one.

 crash): use PC versions.
 
-**Install links / FrameDrop button protocol (2026-10-07, not yet clicked end to end from a browser):** FrameDrop
-(framedropvr.com, a closed-source Windows sideloader) defines "Install with FrameDrop" buttons:
-`https://framedropvr.com/install?manifest=<url>|url=<file>` → that page opens `framedrop://install?…` (1.6 s, else its
-home page); manifest `{"schema":"framedrop.install/v1","name","files":[{"url","sha256"}]}` (name = Steam title; .apk
-or Linux .zip). `deeplink.py` (no Flet) parses framedrop://, frameport:// and the pasted https link, enforces its
-rules (https; http only on loopback; no credentials; no LAN/loopback/link-local IPs, also after DNS and redirects; URL
-ends in a file name), caps manifests at 256 KiB, ignores non-hex sha256 (FrameDrop's own example has a placeholder),
-downloads into `<data>/downloads/<slug>-<hash>/` (OBBs → `obb/` next to the APK, `.part` removed on cancel/mismatch);
-`pipeline.add_from_link` routes APK / Linux / exe and sets `title` + `title_locked` + `link` (a bare file link keeps
-FramePort's title). GUI: `views/link_dialog.py` (always asks first), Add games → "Install from a link…", CLI
-`frameport open-link [--yes --no-install --gui]`. **A `flet build` bundle can't take a URL argument** (the Flutter
-host treats any argv as a developer page URL), so `urlhandler.py` registers a script, not FramePort.exe: Windows
-HKCU `Software\Classes\{framedrop,frameport}` → hidden PowerShell `frameport-link-handler.ps1`; WSL (source runs)
-the same keys → `wsl.exe -d <distro> -e sh frameport-link-handler.sh`; Linux `frameport-links.desktop` +
-`xdg-mime`; macOS unsupported (Apple Events, paste instead). The script drops the link into `<data>/links/*.link`
-and starts FramePort unless `<data>/gui.alive` is < 10 s old (`gui.starting` stops double starts); the GUI's
-`_watch_links` thread touches the heartbeat and opens links (newest window session). Settings → Install links: one
-switch per scheme (`links.framedrop`, `links.frameport`, default on); a scheme another program owns (FrameDrop) is
-only taken with "Use FramePort for these links" (`register([s], force=True)`); off removes only FramePort's own
-registration (`MARK` in the command). Never registered with FRAMEPORT_HOME/FRAMEPORT_NO_LINK_HANDLER (tests,
-screenshots). Same round: files dropped on the Library (`ui/dropped.py`, bundles only like the Files tab), "Add a
-Windows program (.exe)…" (`pipeline.add_windows_exe`: exe in Downloads/home/drive root copied alone into
-`<data>/windows-apps/<slug>/`), patch `device.display_mode` (Automatic / VR / Flat window → `InstallContext.display`,
-`installer.show_window`). FramePort-only manifest extension `"frameport": {"description", "icon"}` (bad values ignored; icon: same URL rules,
-≤2 MiB, Pillow-checked, ≥32 px, saved as PNG in `<data>/downloads/icons/`, shown in the question by asset URL, then
-`sources.apply_custom(pkg, "icon")` unless `.picked` exists; description fills `details.description` only when
-empty). Bare file links get a title guessed from the file name (`title_from_filename`: version/arch dropped, package
-names → last part). Windows test of 0.12.1.dev191 (2026-10-07): a button click opened the dialog; but a click right
-after closing FramePort did nothing (the closed window's heartbeat was < 10 s old) → the handler scripts now wait
-up to 4 s for the link file to be taken before trusting the heartbeat, the window's CLOSE event / atexit delete
-`gui.alive`, and the Windows command runs under `conhost.exe --headless` (plain `-WindowStyle Hidden` flashed a
-console). Screens: `scripts/ui_smoke.py --links --fake-frame --game <pkg>` (tall pages: `--viewport
-1280x7000`; Flutter's popup menu ignores Escape).
-Demo link: the homepage's example button = `deeplink.DEMO_MANIFEST` (https://frameport.app/demo/cool-game.json, published
-from site/public/demo/); every form (https button page, frameport://, framedrop://, pasted) → `InstallRequest.demo`,
-no network (fetch_manifest returns `demo_manifest()`, download refuses), `link_dialog.show_demo` (Install =
-`easter.demo_install`: Cool Game's cover out of the portal; eggs off → "Nice, it works!"), CLI just says so.
+**Install links / FrameDrop button protocol:** `deeplink.py` parses framedrop://, frameport:// and https install links (strict URL rules, manifest ≤256 KiB, downloads into `<data>/downloads/`), `pipeline.add_from_link`, `views/link_dialog.py`, CLI `frameport open-link`; `urlhandler.py` registers a script (bundles can't take URL arguments), `<data>/links/*.link` + `gui.alive` heartbeat; Settings → Install links (`links.framedrop`/`links.frameport`); `ui/dropped.py`, `pipeline.add_windows_exe`, `device.display_mode`; demo link `deeplink.DEMO_MANIFEST`. → docs/DEVICE_NOTES.md#install-links--framedrop-button-protocol
+**Install link updates:** manifest `version` → library `link.version`; `pipeline.check_link_updates` (GUI start, 6 h, setting `links.check_updates` = Settings → Updates → Games) marks `link_update` → Library bar / game page → `link_dialog.update_from_link`; CLI `frameport link-updates`; the demo link is never checked. → docs/DEVICE_NOTES.md#install-links--framedrop-button-protocol

+# Announcements
+
+`current.md` is the one announcement FramePort shows as a pop-up in the app. Edit it on `main`: the app reads it
+from GitHub `main` (raw.githubusercontent.com) at most every 6 hours, so a push reaches everyone without a release.
+
+## Who sees it
+
+- **Only people who already used FramePort before the announcement's `date`.** A new install never shows one, and
+  nor does an announcement published before FramePort was installed.
+- **Once.** Closing it in any way (the X, a click outside it, Escape, or its button) dismisses it for good. The app
+  remembers dismissals in its settings (`announce.dismissed`).
+- **A new announcement = a new `id`.** Fixing a typo with the same `id` doesn't show it again to anyone who closed it.
+  A new `id` shows to everyone who used FramePort before its `date`, whether they closed the earlier one or not.
+
+## The file
+
+```markdown
+---
+active: true                    # false = nothing is shown (the fields are still checked)
+id: meetup-2026-11             # letters, digits, . _ -  — change it for every new announcement
+title: Steam Frame meetup on Discord  # required
+date: 2026-11-02T18:00:00Z      # required: when it was published (UTC; a bare date = midnight UTC)
+image: announcements/meetup.png # optional: a file in this folder, or an https URL (PNG, JPEG, WebP, GIF; ≤ 5 MiB)
+image_alt: The meetup poster    # optional: what the picture shows (screen readers)
+button: Join the meetup         # optional: an action button, with url
+url: https://example.com/meetup
+expires: 2026-11-30             # optional: not shown after this day (UTC, inclusive)
+---
+The body, in Markdown: **bold**, *italic*, `code`, [links](https://frameport.app/), lists, headings.
+```
+
+The body is Markdown (no HTML). A `date` in the future works as a schedule: nobody sees it before then.
+
+Images look best at about 2:1 (e.g. 1200×600). The pop-up is 600 px wide and shows between 140 and 320 px of the
+picture's height.
+
+`pytest tests/test_announcements.py` checks this file, so a broken announcement fails CI instead of silently showing
+nothing.
+
+To turn announcements off for testing: `FRAMEPORT_NO_ANNOUNCEMENTS=1`.

+
+Learned: Unity 2019 contexts
+have no EGLConfig (EGL_KHR_no_config_context: the VrApi bridge takes the window's or an RGBA8 ES3 config); Unity's
+floor origin = vrapi_SetTrackingSpace(1) (the VrApi bridge now honours LOCAL_FLOOR/STAGE); mapped GL buffers are
+per buffer object (a per-target guest copy leaked ~10 MB/s and garbled vertices); the guest runtime's own scudo
+names its maps `[anon:scudo:*]` below 4 GiB (watch them for guest leaks). The Go controller = the right Frame
+controller (stick = touchpad touch, sideways > 0.6 or press = click). Gunjack (CCP, UE 4.10 NativeActivity, Gear VR,
+2026-10-10): needed the native_app_glue imports (ALooper/AInputQueue/AConfiguration/AAsset*, imports.txt), an arm64
+libvrapi.so for Java's System.loadLibrary("vrapi") and MOUNTED under OVP_HEADLESS_TEST; it then loads its map and
+quit on purpose: AndroidMain compares AndroidThunkCpp_GetSignature() with an obfuscated copy. **Works since
+2026-10-11 (owner-verified in the headset):** GameActivity.AndroidThunkJava_GetSignature() = Base64.DEFAULT(SHA-1(
+signing certificate DER)) (jadx); `a32_bridge.original_signature` computes it from the original APK's
+META-INF/*.RSA|DSA|EC, `convert()` stores it as `assets/fp_a32_signature.txt` for libUE4.so games, the bridge loads
+it at activity creation (native_activity.c) and jni.c answers Call*Method on the method ID of
+`AndroidThunkJava_GetSignature()Ljava/lang/String;` with it. After loading, Unreal leaves VR mode and enters it again on
+the same GL context; a second OpenXR session there aborted in vrclient (CSharedSemaphoreLinux::WaitFromGPU from the GL
+binding's PreBeginFrame, also with OVP_HEADLESS_TEST) → the VrApi bridge keeps a running GLES session across
+LeaveVrMode and reuses it for an EnterVrMode with the same context (upstream-patches/runtime.cpp.patch).
+Debugging aids added: A32_BREAK=<guest addr>[,..] (stack of the first hits; guest libs load at fixed addresses, e.g.
+libUE4 0xf25d5000), A32_STRACE in bridge mode = path/exit calls to logcat, activity lifecycle + LeaveVrMode caller
+logs. Lepton's logcat mirror often dies for these games: read `podman exec <container> logcat` instead. Gunjack input
+(2026-10-11): it imports no vrapi input functions and reads the Gear VR touchpad/back as AInputEvents from its
+AInputQueue (native_app_glue), so dispatchKeyEvent never reached it (no control at all) → input.c queues synthetic
+events there (ALooper_poll* return the queue's ident while one waits; AInputQueue_getEvent/finishEvent and the
+AInputEvent/AKeyEvent/AMotionEvent getters are hand-written "!" imports that know them; touch positions scaled to the
+window size). Same mapping as AFFECTED: trigger = hold touchpad, A = tap, right stick = swipe, B = back; for NativeActivity games the stick's up/down = swipe forward/back (touchpad X: Gunjack's OnFlick = reload at ~0°, special weapon at ~180°). Not yet
+headset-verified. Quest builds on the bridge (2026-10-13, Sports Scramble = a 32-bit Santa Cruz build,
+UE 4.21 + OVRPlugin on VrApi 1.21): manifest requires `android.hardware.vr.headtracking` version 1
+(`detect.requires_6dof`, headset "quest", ANALYSIS_VERSION 16) → convert writes `assets/fp_a32_headset.txt`
+= "quest" → vrapi.c `quest_touch` (read in vrapi_Initialize via the activity's AssetManager; A32_TOUCH=1/0
+overrides) passes the 64-bit bridge's Touch controllers through (enumerate/caps/state/tracking/haptics, struct
+tails per VrApi minor) and starts no synthetic input. It also needed AAsset_getBuffer (guest copy, freed in
+AAsset_close), AKeyEvent_getFlags and the other AConfiguration getters. Headset (owner, 2026-10-13): plays,
+both controllers work. Recenter (holding the Frame's menu button) turned VrApi games ~90-120 degrees aside: the bridge's app space is LOCAL + the start yaw and the runtime moves LOCAL to the head → the bridge now takes the origin from the head again on XR_TYPE_EVENT_DATA_REFERENCE_SPACE_CHANGE_PENDING (LOCAL) and on vrapi_RecenterPose (owner-verified with Gunjack, 2026-10-13). Next: the other 32-bit catalog games (Journey of the Gods, Shadow Point: still "unsupported" until
+tested), translator speed. Profiled on the Frame
+(2026-10-12, `A32_PERFMAP` + perf): FPCR switches are negligible (8 of 86k samples); the cost was the run loop

+~45 % of its CPU) and `jit_invalidate` scanning every block on each Mono `cacheflush` (72 % of Spunky Dungeon's
+main thread). Now lock-free lookups, ltab refill, per-thread flags, per-page block lists: Gunjack's dispatcher
+23.6 % -> 1.6 %, CPU in the same phase about -55 %, still 72 fps.
+
+## Upload speed
+
+**Upload speed (measured 2026-09-29):** via the home router (PC Wi-Fi → router → Frame wlan0) only 15-18 MB/s, the
+same for paramiko, OpenSSH and 4 parallel streams, so the network path is the limit, not the SSH code. Direct to the
+Frame's hotspot (`wlanap` 10.35.78.1; the owner's PC has Valve's USB Wi-Fi dongle on it) 83 MB/s OpenSSH / 97 MB/s
+paramiko; reading dumps from D: via WSL drvfs is then the cap (~82 MB/s). `Frame.fast_link()` (installer
+`transfer_link`, uploads ≥64 MiB) uses usb0 > wlanap when reachable **and** the host key matches the paired Frame.
+
+## Revive under Proton arm64 (Lone Echo)
+
+**Revive under Proton arm64 (Lone Echo, 2026-09-29):** Revive's Detours hooks (LoadLibraryW/ExW, OpenEventW, the
+signature check) don't take effect: Wine's kernelbase is ARM64EC. The LibOVR shim in the game then does a plain
+`LoadLibrary("LibOVRRT64_1.dll")` search (exe dir, cwd, system32, windows, PATH — no registry, `OculusBase` or
+`LIBOVR_DLL_DIR` used by this build) → `Failed to initialize Oculus API (-3001)` (= Lies Beneath's "Unable to load
+LibOVRRT DLL"). A symlink `pfx/drive_c/windows/system32/LibOVRRT64_1.dll -> <base>/revive/LibReviveXR64.dll` (Wine
+maps a symlink to the already-loaded module) gets past it to **-3021 = ovrError_LibSignCheck**: the shim only accepts
+an Oculus-signed runtime. Next step (not done): make the runtime check pass without Detours, e.g. an injected helper
+that patches the game's import table (IAT) for LoadLibrary*/WinVerifyTrust, or a prefix-level override. This is
+runtime interop (what Revive does), not the Platform SDK licence check (which FramePort never touches).
+Uninstall (Quest, saves kept) used to leave `deployment.json` → still "installed"; fixed (agent v16).
+
+
+## OVRPort 1.2.5
+
+**OVRPort 1.2.5 (2026-10-01, the fork's first release; CLI-only):** same commands (`patches [--json]`, `patch`, `help`,
+`install`), but `patch` rejects unknown/duplicate args, unknown patch ids and an empty `--patches=`
+(`tools/overport.patch` refuses empty lists). After patching it adds `libovrplatformcompat.so` itself when the platform
+loader lacks `ovrMessageType_ToString` (our `frame.ovrplatformcompat` then skips: same library). New patches (all off;
+`patches/overport.py`): `patch_ac_nexus_no_appsw_72/_90` (AC Nexus build 207706 only, exclusive),
+`patch_disable_meta_xr_audio_telemetry` (x86_64 emulators: hidden), `patch_vrapi_openxr` = OVRPort's VrApi adapter =
+the **unpatched** upstream of our `frame.vrapi_bridge` (`native/vrapi` unchanged since our 5e7df52), only usable with an
+experimental CLI built with `-PwithVrApi=true` (stable jars list it but fail). The owner prefers OVRPort's fixes over
+ours where they work as well (less to maintain): compare in the headset before switching a default.
+`frameport install <pkg> --apk <file>` installs a specific (test) build signed with the game's key.
+Headset results (2026-10-02, `PATCHED/_test-ovrport-1.2.5/TESTING.md`): OVRPort's own VrApi translator fails on the
+Frame (Climb 2: requests VkFormat 37 → crash; POTW: no GLES path, missing `vrapi_GetTextureSwapChainHandle`) → keep
+`frame.vrapi_bridge`; those two changes are upstream candidates. 1.2.5 builds (its platform compat, new permissions)
+work. AC Nexus: `patch_ac_nexus_no_appsw_90` is the catalog default (owner preferred 90 Hz); `STRICT` patches are only
+taken from a catalog recipe where `applies()` holds (the AC Nexus ones need build MAIN.450412.207706.final, else the
+whole overport run fails).
+
+
+## Steam Frame controller models
+
+**Steam Frame controller models (2026-09-30, not yet seen in a game):** adapter setting `controller_models`
+(`native/adapter/render_model.c`) emulates XR_FB_render_model and serves `files/framebridge/controller_{left,right}.glb`;
+agent v20 (`install_controller_models`, command `controller_models`) converts the Frame's SteamVR render models
+(folder name matching "frame" + left/right, OBJ+PNG, `openxr_grip` component → grip space) at finalize/set_settings.
+Valve's models are never committed or copied off the Frame. Only games that use Meta's runtime controller models
+benefit (manifest `RENDER_MODEL` permission/feature → suggested); **none of the 34 catalog games do** (they ship their
+own meshes: that would need per-game asset replacement). Model discovery and conversion
+checked on the device 2026-09-30: `/opt/steamvr/drivers/frame_controller/resources/rendermodels/frame_controller_{left,right}`
+(component OBJs in model space = the whole `<name>.obj`, one `_color.png` 2048² near-black, `openxr_grip` rotates about
+X only; hidden-by-default components like `status` are skipped) → ~2 MB glb each, ~1 s. Not yet seen in a game (none
+of the installed builds has the new adapter, and none requests runtime models), so whether Meta's SDK attaches runtime models at the grip pose is unverified.
+
+## Crash backtraces, Fossilize, swapchain limit, cylinder and equirect layers
+
+**Crash backtraces (2026-09-30):** Lepton writes tombstones only to `lepton-logcats/steamlaunch-<appid>/logcat-crash.log` (after "Dumping logcat"), not launch.log; agent v23 launch tests wait for it and return `crash_log`, triage gets it via `triage(..., crash=)` (not pid-filtered: tombstones come from crash_dump's pid). The guest is `userdebug` (`ro.debuggable=1`), so Lepton's Fossilize layer loads into every app whatever the APK's debuggable flag; it has no off switch. Fossilize crashed Deadpool VR on uninitialized attachment-reference pNexts (several, in FVulkanRenderPass and the render-target layout) → `frame.vk_sanitize` = `native/vkshim` (engine's `dlopen("libvulkan.so")` string → `libfp_vk.so`, wraps vkCreateRenderPass2/KHR, drops unreadable/wrong-sType pNexts; verified: game runs). overport's dispatcher aborts on swapchains > 4096 px (`cmp wN,#4096` in xrCreateSwapchain) → `frame.swapchain_limit` (verified with 4XVR, 7680×3840 accepted by the runtime). Both are default-on (parity classifies their rewrites as
+"expected"; library migration `quest_binary_fixes_v2`). The adapter shows cylinder layers (4XVR's movie screen) as ~15° quad strips (`cylinder_strips`, setting
+`cylinder_strips`); the runtime composites them at full resolution. Equirect (360°) layers are dropped: drawing
+them ourselves (GLES renderer in xrEndFrame: stutter, never showed 4XVR's VR video; Vulkan renderer: hung the
+Frame's GPU in AC Nexus; reading the newest *released* image broke 4XVR's theatre) was removed again on the owner's
+request — don't retry without a new approach. Converted layers must count as "swapped" or the original layer list
+is submitted (runtime returns -2 for every frame). A focus debounce (hiding the Frame's brief
+FOCUSED→VISIBLE→SYNCHRONIZED dips, which make 4XVR recenter) was also removed: AC Nexus stayed black with it (it
+hid 521 ms focus changes at start). The new approach (below) is per-game, off the app's render thread, GLES-only.
+
+
+## 360° layers / 4XVR
+
+**360° layers / 4XVR (2026-09-30):** the Frame's Android SteamVR runtime (`/opt/steamvr/bin/androidarm64/vrclient.so`,
+mounted in Lepton as `/data/steamvr/runtime`) only composites quad + projection layers (cube/cylinder/equirect(2)
+are enum names only) — nothing to unlock. Per-game adapter settings (off by default, hooks installed only when on):
+`equirect_emul` (GLES only: a worker thread with a shared EGL context converts each 360° image to a cube map when it
+changes and draws one adapter projection layer from it for every frame with exactly that frame's views (the app's own
+projection views, else xrLocateViews at displayTime); xrEndFrame waits ≤6 ms for the worker's CPU submit, never the
+GPU. Learned in the headset: quads can't be a background (the Frame draws quad layers above all projection layers
+whatever the order: hid 4XVR's balcony/controllers), and the Frame doesn't reproject a projection layer from its own
+pose (images drawn only after head turns, or ahead from xrWaitFrame and sometimes late, wobbled);
+`equirect_flip/face/res/fps/stereo`), `stable_local`, `focus_hold` (only after 3 s FOCUSED, dips <600 ms),
+`aim_pitch/aim_yaw/aim_forward`, `refresh_rate`, `layer_debug` (diagnostics); focus_hold is default-on since 2026-10-05. 4XVR re-creates LOCAL spaces every 2–4 s
+(menu recentring suspect); its theatres are baked 7680×3840 equirect2 images (`assets/100.png` …). Test 360° videos
+(NASA, public domain) are in the Frame's ~/Videos; copies in `~/Downloads/frameport-360`. 4XVR's "Internal Storage"
+lists its own `/sdcard/4XPlayer`, not Movies: agent v25 `link_media` hard-links sent files into an app's own top-level
+folder (`app_media_dirs`), `frameport frame send --app <pkg>`, GUI game page "Add videos" (players) / "Add videos &
+files…". A 4XVR webm stereo swapchain was refused with XR_ERROR_LIMIT_REACHED (-10) → right eye grey; our projection
+swapchain was halved (1536/eye) in case memory is the limit (unverified). Frame data snapshot

+## Companion apps / intents (Stremio + 4XVR)
+
+**Companion apps / intents (2026-10-03, tested with Stremio + 4XVR):** a second APK can be installed into a running
+Lepton container (`podman exec -i lepton-steamlaunch-<appid> pm install -g -S <size> < apk`) and runs there, VR
+included (4XVR in Stremio's flatscreen container: FrameBridge 72 fps, settings via LEPTON_ENV_FRAMEBRIDGE_CONFIG). But
+Lepton's services.jar (`ActivityStarter.execute`) intercepts **every** `android.intent.action.VIEW` with data (any
+scheme, explicit component or not, no property to disable): it writes `steam://openurl/<uri>` to `/lepton/steam.pipe`
+(= the host Steam client's `~/.steam/steam.pipe`) and starts nothing. So "open in external player" hand-offs (Stremio
+→ 4XVR) can't work inside Lepton; don't retry without Valve changing it. Lepton installs exactly one `*.apk` per app
+folder (two break `get_apk_path`).
+
+## Text input (Stremio VR)
+
+**Text input (2026-10-03, verified in the headset with Stremio VR):** Lepton's Android has no IME (`ime list` empty)
+and runs VR apps headless (`lepton.headless=true`): no Android window has input focus (`dumpsys input` FocusedWindows
+empty), so neither `input text`, a USB keyboard nor Steam's keyboard reach the app. `lepton-show-flatscreen` on a VR
+app keeps VR working (FrameBridge 72 fps) and gives the window focus; Steam's on-screen keyboard then opens for text
+fields. Unity's TMP_InputField on non-Quest Android waits for the system keyboard (`TouchScreenKeyboardShouldBeUsed`)
+and deselects a frame later unless `isKeyboardUsingEvents` (Android: `InPlaceEditing() && m_HideSoftKeyboard`);
+uGUI InputField's LateUpdate keeps the field when `InPlaceEditing()`. Patch `frame.unity_text_input` rewrites them
+(`mov w0,#0|#1; ret`) at Cpp2IL's **Offset** (= file offset; RVA differs by 0x4000 in Stremio's lib), Cpp2IL
+2022.1 pre-release (Unity 6 / metadata v31; Il2CppDumper can't), cached per libil2cpp sha. `/dev/uinput` has an ACL
+for steamos (Steam Input) → agent v33 `_keyboard` uinput keyboard ("Type on Frame") reaches everything with focus.
+Installing a second APK into a container with `pm install` re-runs Lepton's post-install hook on the **main** app
+(`lepton.active_app_id`; moves its files to /data/steam_app) and corrupts it on the next start (fix: touch the APK →
+re-bake); `cmd_real package install` skips the hook.
+
+## User reports 2026-10-04 (issues #4-#10)
+
+**User reports (2026-10-04, issues #4-#10):** Steam shortcuts go to the signed-in account (`loginusers.vdf`
+MostRecent) else every account (agent v35 `library_users`; it used to refuse with >1 account → Play gave Steam's "Game
+configuration unavailable"); `launch` uses the shortcut's own appid and errors `NOT_IN_LIBRARY`, the app then adds it
+and plays. Unity IL2CPP fixes share one Cpp2IL run (`unity_text_input.Il2cppReturnPatch`, `ALL_TARGETS`, cache keyed by
+global-metadata.dat): `frame.unity_runtime_msaa_off` (OVRManager raises MSAA to 4x at runtime: "Switching to the
+recommended level" → Lucky's Tale restarted the headset; `OVRDisplay.get_recommendedMSAALevel` → 0) and
+`frame.unity_multipass` (Oculus XR Plugin multiview → MultiPass via `OculusSettings.GetStereoRenderingMode`; I Am Cat's
+right eye grey). Both checked against Toy Master's Cpp2IL output, not yet in a headset. VR4 quits itself (System.exit
+after the intro movie) → catalog `use_alt`. **Catalog changes reach existing games** without hardcoded migrations:
+recipes store `catalog_rev` (= `CatalogEntry.rev()`), `library._follow_catalog` re-derives non-user recipes whose entry
+changed; a maintained entry beats the user's shared copy when its `updated`/verified date is later (`catalog._newer`).
+
+## Round 2 of reports, headset rounds 2-3 (2026-10-04)
+
+**Round 2 of reports (2026-10-04):** VR4's campaign hang = one fragment shader reading an uninitialized loop counter
+(reporter's capture): vkshim `vk_shader_fix` setting (`<size>:<sha256>:<offset>:<words>`, from the recipe's `adapter:`;
+matched by size + SHA-256, words inserted into a copy) — on the device the module is fixed at load ("fixed shader
+module (6488 -> 6512 bytes)"); campaign itself not yet seen in a headset by us. Text settings (kind "str") stay out of
+the Game settings dialog (saving it dropped them). I Am Cat: `GetStereoRenderingMode` is inlined (no call sites) →
+`Il2cppReturnPatch.field_loads` rewrites the field read in `OculusLoader.Initialize` (Cpp2IL gives the field offset,
+`field:<name>`); verified with Toy Master: eye swapchains array=1 ×2 instead of array=2. Builds record `recipe_fp`
+(`patches/base.recipe_fingerprint`, `Patch.revision`): a changed recipe or revised patch shows "Update on Frame".
+Remembered Frames are found again after an address change (`Frame.relocate`: scan, same SSH host key, before
+login). Packaged apps show artwork by file path (`thumbs.use_file_paths`, #16). Diagnostics: this boot's kernel log.
+Device tests of requested games (2026-10-04, headless): I Am Cat, Myst 3.3.0, BattleGlide, Blade & Sorcery: Nomad
+start (RUNNING, frames). Roblox: SIGSEGV in je_free from libroblox.so ~3 s in (likely its anti-tamper vs the re-signed
+APK). BONELAB (Unity 2021.3 Vulkan, OVRPlugin 1.94): SIGSEGV with pc == fault addr in vkCreateInstance, called from
+libSLZQuestNative.so's Vulkan hooks into an unmapped (unloaded) library right after OVRPlugin's pre-init
+xrDestroyInstance; pinning openxr/vrclient libraries (RTLD_NODELETE) did NOT help — find the unloaded library with the
+linker's dlopen/dlclose logging next. Accounting+ (Unity 2017.4 built-in Oculus, libOVRPlugin + libvrapi): Unity
+never starts VR on the Frame (no OVRPlugin/OpenXR lines; runs as a 2D app), which is why its "controller setup"
+screen can't be passed — Unity 2017's Oculus device check, not the controller profiles. Cpp2IL can't read Unity 2017.
+The Frame's Android runtime (vrclient.so) knows oculus/touch_controller but not Meta's Touch Plus/Pro profiles
+(OVRPlugin suggests those too, routinely) → adapter `profile_remap`.
+Headset round 2 (2026-10-04): the Frame drops focus often (ms to 7 s; only some are presence/standby) → games pause
+or recentre (B&S Player.OnVRPresence → Teleport, BattleGlide/Unreal pauses); focus_hold now 1 s focused / 1 s max dip
+(longer must still pause). Myst crash = vrclient xrSyncActions race after FOCUSED → `sync_guard` (confirmed); its
+object glitches: app space warp suspected (FB_space_warp is advertised and used) → recipe `patch_disable_space_warp`.
+I Am Cat multipass: poses/times consistent, but every frame is submitted after the next xrWaitFrame (one period late;
+Zink + doubled draws) and the game clamps its physics step to 10 ms → judder while still; testing scale 0.8. Roblox's
+newest crash is on Fossilize's recording thread → vk_sanitize extended to own-engine libs (engine "Other").
+Accounting+: unity_oculus_check + native/ovrpshim (libfp_ovrp.so waits via ovrp_WaitToBeginFrame before Unity
+2017's ovrp_Update2) → VR in the headset at ~72 fps (2026-10-04), but stuck at "press any button" although input
+reaches its OVRInput cleanly (probe: both Touch connected 0x63, individual buttons, input focus 1) → works with issues.
+"outside of frame bounds" warnings stay (~2/frame) and are harmless.
+Steam library (GitHub #4/#21/#27, agent v38): shortcuts go to every Steam account (signed-in first; MostRecent isn't
+always the account on the Frame); stop_steam also waits for Steam's helpers; after the restart the agent re-reads
+shortcuts.vdf and writes once more if Steam put its old copy back (`shortcuts_lost`); lost again (agent v89): Steam
+ignores FramePort's entries on that Frame, so `add_devkit_entry` adds the devkit entry instead (`added` gets `via:
+devkit`) and only reports an error if that fails too. 0.6.3's Play
+auto-repair (`_add_then_play`) crashed (its job got a Job, not a reporter). Uploads resume on a transient OSError.
+Lepton's Android 11 has no clipboard service (134 services; checked with `podman exec … service check clipboard`):
+SDL/LÖVE apps crashed at start → `frame.sdl_clipboard` (`apk/dex.py`: in-place dex edit, nops one invoke, fixes
+the header checksum/signature; verified with LÖVE for Android 11.5, GitHub #24 Dramatic Shape). Godot 4.2-4.4 (Kotlin `as ClipboardManager`,
+GitHub #134 EndoparasiticVR) → `frame.godot_clipboard` (nops the `Intrinsics.checkNotNull` before that check-cast; Godot's
+clipboard methods return at once; analysis `godot_clipboard`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 10; checked on real godot-lib/templates
+4.2.2-4.4.1, not on the device; 4.1 and 4.5+ don't throw). 2D apps (vr_kind none)
+keep every suggested patch that isn't about VR (`needs_vr = False`), not a fixed list. FramePort on the Frame:
+`frame/local.py` (127.0.0.1, own key authorized; "This Frame (experimental)"; app data in
+~/.local/share/frameport-app because ~/.local/share/frameport is the agent's) and Steam library changes wait while
+Desktop Mode is open. Verified on the device 2026-10-04 (install + launch test from the Frame). Library updates on the
+Frame run one at a time (agent v40 flock): two quick uninstalls used to bring a removed shortcut back (Roblox).
+Headset round 3 (owner's verdicts, 2026-10-04): Blade & Sorcery works — its freezes were the headset's wear sensor
+flickering off while worn (vrserver.txt "HMD off/on" 0.5-2 s) → per-game `focus_hold_ms=2500` (only this game reacts;
+not a default). BattleGlide works (focus_hold). Myst works with issues (object glitches; space warp ruled out, its
+recipe keeps it on). I Am Cat works with issues (judder; scale 0.8 no help). Roblox unsupported (je_free in
+libroblox, also with the Vulkan shim). Installs skip the Steam restart when the shortcut is unchanged and wait while a
+game runs (agent v37). New default fixes in FramePort's code reach games already in a library: after every app update
+`library._follow_catalog` re-derives each non-user recipe once (setting `recipes.app_version`; tests switch it off via
+`library.REFRESH_ON_UPDATE`). Analysis fields added later: **bump `analysis/detect.ANALYSIS_VERSION`** (stored as `analysis.extra.analysis_version`); older entries whose APK is still there are analysed again at the GUI's start (background thread, not a job: ~8 s per 900 MB APK) and before a build (`pipeline.refresh_analyses`, GitHub #104); only `analysis`/`suggested` change, user recipes stay; an unreadable APK gets `analysis_failed` = the version (not retried until the next bump). Troubleshooting techniques: docs/PLAYBOOK.md "Debugging techniques". Unity `boot.config` "vulkan" substring mislabels GLES games as Vulkan
+(I Am Cat ran GLES); OVRPlugin's "Unavailable OpenXR extension: XR_FB_scene" is routine (no longer triaged).
+
+## Round 4 (2026-10-04): surface swapchains, save-folder permissions
+
+**Round 4 (2026-10-04):** XR_KHR_android_surface_swapchain is listed by the Frame's runtime but returns
+FUNCTION_UNSUPPORTED → adapter `surface_emul` (default on, `native/adapter/surface_swapchain.c`): an ordinary runtime
+swapchain is returned, the game gets a Surface from a SurfaceTexture on a worker thread (own EGL context, JavaVM from
+XrInstanceCreateInfoAndroidKHR), frames are read back (glReadPixels) and uploaded in xrEndFrame (Vulkan: own command
+buffer + fence per panel, never waits; GLES: glTexSubImage2D). I Am Monkey's intro works (owner-confirmed). SUPERHOT
+(Quest) quit at start: its cloud save folder was mode 1700 and Lepton's app writes through the folder's group →
+launch.sh `fix_perms` adds u+rwx,g+rwx (agent v41). Lucky's Tale: Unity's Loading.PreloadManager thread grows the
+native heap ~1 GB/s until the OOM killer (Frame freezes); no fix. `perf` works as steamos (paranoid 2; ptrace_scope 1
+blocks gdb/eu-stack/debuggerd) — see PLAYBOOK "Debugging techniques". QuestCraft downloads its JRE at first run into
+`files/runtimes/JRE` (Pojlib Installer); on the Frame it was missing (unpacked by hand, unverified). WiiCompiled: its launcher shows
+(lepton-show-flatscreen) but imports .wcgame files through Android's document picker (OPEN_DOCUMENT), which Lepton
+lacks (ActivityNotFoundException) → imported by hand: libmain.so + game.json → internal files/game/<profile>,
+DATA/ → external files/WiiCompiledOpenXRVR/DATA, MOD/ → .../RetroRewind6 (decompiled with jadx). Lepton has no
+picker at all: a FramePort fix would be an injected picker activity. Generated cover/banner art used to suppress the
+Steam placeholder set (no Steam art at all) → fixed in artwork/steam.py.
+
+## Steam library failures and the devkit fallback (GitHub #21/#30/#41/#42)
+
+**Steam library failures (GitHub #21/#30):** on some Frames Steam never loads FramePort's shortcuts.vdf entries (same SteamOS build and arm64 beta client as the dev Frame; IDs correct; file written before Steam starts): Play → console_log `GameAction [AppID <id>] … RequestingLicense → UpdatingAppInfo → LaunchApp failed with AppError_9` (= "Game configuration unavailable", Steam treats the id as a store app). Cause unknown; agent v42/43 diagnostics: `launch` returns `steam` (started / error + code / silent from console_log), `collect_diag` adds `steam_library` (real Steam dir, beta, Steam start vs vdf write time, entries per account, devkit games) + `steam-console.txt` (incl. Steam's `logs/shortcuts.previous.txt` if present; steamclient.so has "LoadShortcuts: rejecting attempt to load shortcuts: invalid account ID"). **Fallback (agent v43):** when Play gets AppError_9 the agent registers the game through Steam's devkit interface (what Valve's Devkit Management Tool does, MIT: `devkit-1 steam://devkit-1/<~/.steam/steam.token>/create-shortcut?response=<file>&gameid=<id>&directory=~/devkit-game` written to ~/.steam/steam.pipe; answer file / `.error`; `~/devkit-game/<id>/launch.sh` = link to the game's launch.sh, `<id>-argv.json` ["launch.sh"] (relative to the folder), `<id>-settings.json` {steam_play 0, compat_tool ""}). Steam adds it live (no restart), picks its own appid (read back from shortcuts.vdf by DevkitGameID), shows it as a normal non-Steam game named "Devkit Game: <id>" (OpenVR 0, but VR works: owner-verified 2026-10-04), art copied to grid/<appid>*. Ids: letter first, then letters/digits/_ only (spaces, '-', leading digit → "missing/invalid arguments"). Later Plays use the devkit entry; uninstall (`devkit_unregister`, `delete-shortcut` live) and purge remove it. Verified on the dev Frame: register/launch/unregister; the AppError_9 trigger itself only in unit tests. GitHub #42 (two Steam accounts, neither MostRecent): Steam rewrote the active account's shortcuts.vdf without FramePort's entries right after starting, and added the devkit entry live without saving it, so `devkit_appid` (vdf only) failed ("Steam added the devkit entry but didn't save it"); agent v55 `devkit_appid_from_log` reads Steam's `sanitize shortcut app id "~/devkit-game/<id>/launch.sh": replacing 0 with N` console line. GitHub #41 (one account): same Steam behaviour, and every install restarts Steam, which forgets the never-saved devkit entry. Agent v56: the log fallback reads only the current session's console_log.txt; Play re-registers a devkit entry that gets AppError_9; art updates also write the devkit entry's grid art (`copy_grid_art`). Open: why some Frames' Steam never loads or saves shortcuts.vdf (single account too).
+
+## Exit game (GitHub #36)
+
+**Exit game (GitHub #36, 2026-10-04):** `Apps.TerminateApp` (what Exit game calls; reachable for tests through Steam's CEF devtools on 127.0.0.1:8080, SharedJSContext, `Runtime.evaluate` — a stdlib websocket client is enough) closed both a normal shortcut and a devkit entry on the dev Frame within 1-3 s. SIGTERM to Steam's `reaper` alone left launch.sh + Lepton (setsid) + the container running (an earlier headset launch ran on for 87 min); SIGTERM to launch.sh cleans up in ~4 s. Agent v44: launch.sh's 2 s loop ends the game when its parent (the reaper) is gone; `upgrade_launchers` (from ensure_host_fixes) adds that to existing launchers in place. Which in-headset exit path fails is still unknown. Screenshots on the Frame: all under SteamVR's appid 250820 (`760/remote/250820/screenshots`, screenshots.vdf has creation time, no game).
+
+## SteamVR dashboard at game start
+
+**SteamVR dashboard at game start (2026-10-04):** the dashboard (Resume game / controller / VR options) was open whenever a FramePort game started (also over Lepton's 2D launcher). Steam's UI exposes `SteamClient.OpenVR.VROverlay.{IsDashboardVisible,HideDashboard,ShowDashboard}` (CEF devtools, `steam_js` in the agent). Agent v44: launch.sh starts `_dashboard_worker` (waits for FrameBridge's first `pacing:` line in launch.log, then hides a visible dashboard for 25 s, at most 3 times; log `<base>/dashboard.log`; opt out with env FRAMEPORT_KEEP_DASHBOARD=1). Verified on the dev Frame (dashboard shown → 4XVR launched via Steam → hidden ~5 s after the first frames); not yet seen in the headset. **Headset (ITR2, 2026-10-05): too late** — Steam shows its frame menu (`valve.steam.gamepadui.frame.menu`, vrwebhelper_systemui.txt `[PooledPopups] Showing`) ~0.3 s after the game's first submitted frame (FrameBridge `new layer:`), but the first `pacing:` summary comes ~8 s later; the owner had pressed Resume (`[HideDashboard] return_to_game`) before the worker looked. Agent v52: watches from the first `new layer:` line (incremental log reads, 0.5 s polls, 30 s window). Agent v59: watches 120 s and hides up to 10 times (the menu came back after 30 s in the owner's sessions). Agent v53: stops for good once the player opens the dashboard with the controller (`toggle_dashboard_action` in vrwebhelper_systemui.txt since the worker started): v52 closed it 60 ms after each press, and the game, paused for it, stayed paused.
+
+## Space warp / ITR2
+
+**Space warp / ITR2 (2026-10-04):** Into The Radius 2 (UE5, `libUnreal.so` + OVRPlugin, Vulkan) uses Application SpaceWarp (extra swapchains `376x376 format=97` motion vectors + `format=129` depth); #35 reports flickering textures. OVRPort's `patch_disable_space_warp` has no effect on UE5, and hiding XR_FB_space_warp in FrameBridge's enumerate doesn't reach the game either: **OVRPort's dispatcher offers/enables XR_FB_space_warp itself**. FrameBridge `hide_space_warp` (per game, off) hides it and strips `XrCompositionLayerSpaceWarpInfoFB` (1000171000) from the projection views (log `hide_space_warp: removed space warp info`); the game still renders its MV swapchains. Test build installed on the dev Frame; flicker not yet checked in a headset. Heuristic: UE5 + OVRPlugin shows it as an option (off). `equirect_emul` is suggested for Unreal games whose graphics API isn't detected ("GLES or unknown"); on Vulkan it switches itself off (Myst/Riven/ITR2): harmless, but Unreal Vulkan detection is a known gap.
+
+## PR #34: Meta XR Audio metadata (Batman)
+
+**PR #34 (merged 2026-10-04, Lucas-Mathieu):** `native/adapter/audio_metadata.h` patches Meta XR Audio Wwise (only build ID e1619e7f…, Batman: Arkham Shadow 1.4.1) so queued audio metadata isn't freed while the current audio frame references it (smoke-bomb crash). Verified headless: installs ("metadata reclamation follows …"), 72 fps; we added a once-per-second scan limit. Outside PRs: review source, rebuild `artifacts/` ourselves, merge locally (contributor's commit kept), push main.
+
+## Heuristics eval (2026-10-04)
+
+**Heuristics eval (2026-10-04):** `scripts/eval_heuristics.py "<VR CyberDeck Portable>"` → 19/44 recipes exact, 322/352 fields (most diffs: `frame.unity_text_input` suggested where older catalog recipes lack it; the rest are runtime-only findings: use_alt, vk_shader_fix, focus_hold, sync_guard, multipass). `PATCHED/` copies aren't scored (already converted).
+
+## Proton default (stable vs Experimental)
+
+**Proton default (agent v51, owner's choice 2026-10-05):** the newest **stable** ARM64 Proton is the default for PC VR games (`pick_proton`: asked-for name/alias, else newest installed stable, else any stable). Agent v49-50 defaulted to Experimental; the owner's headset A/B with Rick and Morty (Experimental 69 % reprojected frames, stable felt much smoother) reverted it. The game page's Customize shows `pcvr.proton_tool` as a dropdown (Stable (default) / Experimental = alias `proton-experimental`); `ensure_proton` installs a chosen one (it asks once more for the runtime Steam only names after Proton is installed; Experimental installed unattended on the device in 53 s). A PC VR launch test that fails on stable suggests Experimental (`pipeline.PROTON_TOOL`, `proton_alternative_worth_trying`, button "Try Proton Experimental and reinstall"). Remaining Rick and Morty stutter on head turns = the game rendering below the refresh rate (reprojection), not Proton.
+
+## USB cable link
+
+**USB cable link (verified 2026-10-05, cabled to the dev PC):** `usb0` is a USB **NCM** gadget (configfs g1: `ncm.usb0` + `ffs.adb`, Valve 28de:2460) set up by `usb-ncm-gadget@usb0.service`, which only runs with `ConditionPathExists=|/etc/systemd/system/adbd.service.d/steamos-devkit-enabled` = **Developer Mode only**. `usb-ncm-dnsmasq@usb0` serves DHCP with fixed `dhcp-host` entries: Frame 10.86.200.233, PC **10.86.200.234** (`frame/usb.py` FRAME_USB_IP/PC_USB_IP). Windows 11 binds its built-in "UsbNcm Host Device" (no driver); WSL mirrored sees eth 10.86.200.234. USB is high-speed (USB 2.0): upload 36.9 MB/s vs 11.3 MB/s home Wi-Fi. Frame→PC over the cable worked without a firewall change. `scripts/usb_autotest.py` (Windows via powershell.exe from WSL), `frameport frame usb-check`. Wizard "Set up with a USB cable" (`PairingServer(host=PC_USB_IP)`; the real bootstrap ran end to end over USB). Discovery dedupes by SSH host key and prefers USB > Frame hotspot > network (`discovery.dedupe`); a lost address is re-found by key (`Frame.relocate`, tested with a dead saved address).
+
+## Start activity / QuestCraft / ITR2 pop-in
+
+**Start activity / QuestCraft / ITR2 pop-in (2026-10-05):** WiiCompiled's VR part (`QuestActivity`, SDL, process `:game`) stays behind Lepton's flat window when the launcher is shown (`device.text_input_window`). `frame.start_activity` (opt-in; analysis `extra.vr_activity` = the original APK's activity with Meta's VR category when it isn't the launcher) gives that activity's filter LAUNCHER and every other LAUNCHER becomes INFO, per element (`axml.set_start_activity`); Lepton's own `apk-info-extractor --print-activity-name` (on the Frame under Lepton/liblepton/apk_extractor) then answers QuestActivity. **OVRPort gives every MAIN activity LAUNCHER + VR categories**, so the VR activity must come from the original APK's analysis, not the converted manifest. Lepton has no activity override (`APP_ACTIVITY` is reset when app_metadata.sh is sourced). QuestCraft reaches Minecraft 1.21.5 (Fabric, Vivecraft, Sodium; LTW "Large Thin Wrapper" GL 3.0 on the Frame's Zink) and stops at `OpenGL error 1282` in `WindowFramebuffer` createTexture (Minecraft's crash report in `files/instances/1.21.5/crash-reports/`, Pojlib's `files/latestlog.txt`); the vrclient SIGSEGV / "pthread_mutex_lock called on a destroyed mutex" afterwards is only the shutdown (Unity's render thread still in vrclient while the instance is destroyed). ITR2 "models popping in and out" in game: Unreal reads user config from **internal** storage (`lepton-data/internal/<pkg>/files/UnrealGame/<Project>/<Project>/Saved/Config/Android/Engine.ini`, not external); `r.AllowOcclusionQueries=0` there broke its menus (removed again). Vulkan shim `vk_query_slots` (two slots per occlusion query) never saw ITR2 create an occlusion query pool, and the run with it crashed (Unreal RenderThread SIGSEGV, caught by sentry-native: no tombstone; the backtrace is in `cache/sentry/*/.sentry-native/*.run/*.envelope` with module offsets) - left off. Next suspect: Unreal 5 mobile HZB occlusion reading depth stored with Valve's FDM injection layer; test = launcher `VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=''` (Lepton then loads neither VALVE_rpo nor VALVE_fdm_injection, Fossilize still). QuestCraft: LTW overrides glGetError and returns 0 with `LIBGL_NOERROR` set; Lepton passes `LEPTON_ENV_<NAME>` to the app as `<NAME>`, so catalog `lepton_env: {LEPTON_ENV_LIBGL_NOERROR: '1'}` gets Minecraft past the GL error 1282; then black picture (see the catalog entry). FrameBridge logs `new layer` once per layer type per process and projection views only for the first frames, so a second session in the same process (Vivecraft after Unity) needs `layer_debug=1`.
+
+## Vulkan validation / ITR2 solved
+
+**Vulkan validation / ITR2 solved (2026-10-05):** Khronos' validation layer can't come from Lepton (its layer dir is in the read-only guest image; the Linux copies on the Frame are glibc) and a global `debug.vulkan.layers` property (via the LEPTON_GFXRECON_FP_PROPS trick) kills the container at boot. Working recipe: bundle `libVkLayer_khronos_validation.so` (Khronos android-binaries release, arm64-v8a, stored uncompressed) into a test APK re-signed with the game's key (`apk.sign.sign`), install with `frameport install <pkg> --apk`, and set the Vulkan shim's `vk_validation=1` (it adds the layer at vkCreateInstance; findings under the logcat tag VALIDATION in launch.log, each message ID capped at 10). ITR2's flicker + windows behind models = Unreal's Qualcomm shader-resolve subpasses with a depth resolve of a single-sampled depth attachment (VUID-04908/-03179); `vk_spec_fixes=1` drops that resolve (its TRANSFER_DST half never applies to ITR2: the main depth is transient). Valve's VALVE_rpo layer removed ITR2's fog (catalog `lepton_env: VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS: VK_LAYER_VALVE_fdm_injection`). `r.ViewDistanceScale=2` in the internal Saved/Config/Android/Engine.ini only exists on the owner's Frame (the catalog can't write internal storage yet). Launch tests: Lepton prints a transient "is not a running context" on the first start after an APK change (agent v54 `not_started` waits 30 s for "Boot complete!").

+**GitHub #38/#39 (2026-10-05):** PowerWash Simulator stuck at "Waiting.." on a reporter's Frame = Unity sized the right-eye image rect past its swapchain (rect 268+1656 on a 1920-wide swapchain; the runtime's recommended size differs per Frame) and SteamVR rejected every frame (`xrEndFrame failed -25`, XR_ERROR_SWAPCHAIN_RECT_INVALID), after which the game stopped calling xrEndFrame. FrameBridge `rect_clamp` (default on; sizes noted in xrCreateSwapchain; clamped layers count as swapped) keeps projection/quad rects inside their swapchain; triage `swapchain-rect-invalid`. Not reproducible on the dev Frame with `scale` (Unity's eye sizing isn't just the recommended width); no regression there (72 fps). The adapter's revision was NOT bumped (that would mark every installed game outdated): affected users rebuild. The Room VR (#38) = Unity's render thread SIGSEGV in libgallium_dri.so ~30 ms after the game recreates its eye swapchain with samples=4 (FrameBridge retries samples=1); the game's own code turns MSAA on (not OVRManager); candidate fix: hide GL_EXT_multisampled_render_to_texture (GL shim) - needs the APK to test. The launch test passed both (render thread dead / no frames): triage gap.

+## Headset round 2026-10-05 (evening)
+
+**Headset round 2026-10-05 (evening):** I Am Cat's judder = repeated xrLocateViews of one display time returning
+slightly different poses → FrameBridge `pose_consistency` (owner-verified, works). Lucky's Tale freeze on touching a
+save slot = OVRPort's OpenXR dispatcher converting XR_FB_haptic_amplitude_envelope with ns read as s (GitHub #9) →
+xrshim `haptic_fix` (owner-verified); its remaining short pauses were the wear sensor ("HMD off/on" 0.5-1 s in
+`logs/eyetracking.txt`, not vrserver.txt) → **`focus_hold` is on by default with 5 s** (owner's choice; C defaults
+too). The Room VR works (`unity_no_overlay_copy`). BattleSisters (Unity 2019.4 built-in VR, no libOculusXRPlugin.so)
+flooded "outside of frame bounds" ~2400/s and hung the GPU (kernel hangcheck, zink DEVICE LOST) → the ovrpshim frame
+wait now also applies to Unity 2019 without the Oculus XR Plugin (`UnityOculusCheck.legacy_loop`). Vader Immortal
+(UE4, stuck on the loading image after the intro, GitHub #49): VRP repacks carry a Frida gadget (`libfrda.so`,
+config `hijack_responses`), but OVRPort's `patch_clean_up_frida` removes its loadLibrary call, so it never runs on
+the Frame; `frame.ovr_trace` (opt-in, `native/ovrtrace`: 1138 exported ovr_* stubs → real loader functions, logcat
+tag `fp_ovrtrace`: calls, PopMessage answers, unanswered requests every 10 s) is the next diagnostic.
+
+## Unity built-in VR input (Accounting+, BattleSisters)
+
+**Unity built-in VR input (2026-10-05):** probe builds (`FRAMEPORT_INPUT_PROBE=1 frameport build …`; it logs
+trigger/grip crossings too) showed OVRPlugin returns the full Touch state for every controller mask (also Go masks);
+presses reach the games' OVRInput. Accounting+ (Il2CppDumper v6.7.46 reads its Unity 2017 metadata v24, run on Windows)
+passes stance selection (NewtonVR grip/trigger) but its motion warning waits for `Input.GetMouseButtonDown(0/1)`,
+which Lepton never delivers (no focused Android window) → ovrpshim registers its own
+`UnityEngine.Input::GetMouseButtonDown(System.Int32)` icall (il2cpp_add_internal_call, after Unity's: resolve first)
+that adds a click in the frame a Touch trigger or A/B/X/Y is newly pressed (`unity_oculus_check` revision 3).
+BattleSisters (Unity 2019 InputSystem/XR InputDevices via `VrHandInput`): libunity's Oculus module (OVRPlugin
+function table: a global pointer at 0x16b57c0 in this build, slots filled by name, e.g. +0x160 GetControllerState,
++0x168 State2, +0xe8 GetNodePresent) only reports controllers when `strncmp(deviceModel, "Oculus", 6) == 0` (next to
+the Go check `deviceModel == "Oculus Pacific"`); Lepton's model is "Valve Lepton" → Go/unknown → only Go masks polled,
+buttons dead. `unity_oculus_check` revision 4 (`oculus_model_checks`, Unity 2019 only) turns the 17 compares' length
+into 0 (`orr w2, wzr, #6` → `mov w2, #0` after the adrp/add of the "Oculus" literal; the string stays: it is also
+Unity's VR device name). Device result: libunity now polls `ovrp_GetControllerState(0x3)` (Touch); owner-confirmed
+2026-10-06: buttons work. Its first controller vibration then hit OVRPort's haptic-envelope bug (11 GB, OOM kill) →
+`haptic_fix` is now suggested for every game with libOVRPlugin.so (settings detect), BattleSisters works. Ruled out before: ProductName, GetNodePresent, the device-model string itself, exports.
+Accounting+ works (owner, 2026-10-06).
+
+## Vader Immortal (headless investigation)
+
+**Vader Immortal (UE4, GitHub #49, 2026-10-06, headless):** stuck after the intro on an in-game image (the splash
+quad ends ~6 s in; then the game's own projection frames, 72 fps, balanced xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame). Not the Platform
+SDK (`frame.ovr_trace`: only user + entitlement, both answered) and not the repack's Frida gadget (OVRPort's
+`patch_clean_up_frida` removes its loadLibrary). It **leaks ~430 GPU mappings (/dev/dri/renderD128) and ~20 MB a
+second** (6.5 GB + swap after 5 min, then 26 fps): page-fault stacks (perf -e page-faults, offsets resolved with the
+process maps + vrclient.so's own symbols; its text segment is at file offset + 0x4000) end in SteamVR's runtime:
+`xrBeginFrame → CSxrCompositorOpenVR::BeginFrame → SubmitExplicitTimingData → CVRCompositorSharedTextures::
+BeginGPUTimingCommandBuffer` and `xrEndFrame → CVRCompositorClient::SubmitWithArrayIndexAndTime`. Ruled out: the
+layer color scale/bias + image layout structs (FrameBridge `strip_color_bias` 1/2, diagnostic), Valve's Vulkan
+layers (VK_INSTANCE_LAYERS=""), array swapchains in general (Lucky's Tale/I Am Cat flat). Kernel tracepoints aren't
+allowed for steamos. FrameBridge: `layer_debug` logs xrDestroySwapchain and per-5 s xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame counts;
+`frame_balance` (ends an open frame before the next begin) exists but Vader never leaves one open. Next (built,
+not yet run: the Frame slept): `layer_debug` also counts xrAcquire/Wait/ReleaseSwapchainImage per 5 s (hooked only
+with layer_debug, after the other conditional hooks) to see whether Vader skips a wait or release: it doesn't (361/361/361 per 5 s).
+FrameBridge `snapshot=N` (`snapshot_gl.c`, GLES): every N s the left-eye image the game submits is read back on its
+own context and saved as `files/fb_snap_0-7.ppm` (quarter size) — headless launches show a black headset view, this
+shows what the game draws. Vader: Lucasfilm logo (an OBB mp4: video works), then its loading card (portrait + segmented
+bar) that never advances; the async loader thread sleeps and OBB reads stop (~168 MB of a 2.7 GB pak).
+
+## SteamVR overlay apps
+
+**SteamVR overlay apps (agent v75, 2026-10-10):** host OpenVR overlays (VRApplication_Overlay) are composited over Lepton (Quest) games on the Frame (probe checker seen over 4XVR in the headset view, `native/vroverlay_probe`); Windows ones register through Proton's vrclient too (Temporal Reality's Windows build created its overlays; fpsVR never reaches OpenVR under Proton). Detection `analysis/vroverlay.py` (bundled `.vrmanifest` with `is_dashboard_overlay`, else OpenVR + IVROverlay + self-registration markers, engine Other; Rift fingerprint `RIFT_ANALYSIS`), patch `pcvr.vr_overlay` (param autostart), Linux entry fields `vr_overlay`/`vr_overlay_autostart` (game page switch); agent `register_vr_overlay`/`unregister_vr_overlay`/`launch_vr_overlay` (IVRApplications via ctypes, live; manifest `<anchor>/frameport-overlay.vrmanifest`, the app's own key, binary = launch.sh). **SteamVR on the Frame reads only `binary_path_linux_arm`** (binary_path_linux alone is skipped). Overlay apps: no launch test, no Linux Steam-parent watchdog (`FRAMEPORT_OVERLAY`), not a "running game". A Steam overlay-app shortcut and a game shortcut run together. SteamVR's SetApplicationAutoLaunch didn't persist on the dev Frame (the watch never started by itself) → **agent v76: FramePort's own autostart**: the deployment's `overlay.autostart` is the source of truth; `ensure_host_fixes` (`ensure_overlay_service`) keeps the user service `frameport-vr-overlays.service` (`_vr_overlay_watch`, 5 s polls of the known vrserver's /proc stat) only while an overlay app has autostart on (register/unregister, uninstall, purge and the kill switch `~/.local/share/frameport/vr-overlays.disabled` / `FRAMEPORT_NO_OVERLAY_AUTOSTART` update it); a new vrserver (pid + start time, kept in `~/.cache/frameport-vr-overlays.json` across agent updates) → child `_vr_overlay_round`: wait for IVRApplications, 15 s grace, `launch_vr_overlay` for apps not running (folder process or GetApplicationProcessId); log `~/.local/share/frameport/vr-overlays.log`. Dev Frame: adopted the running vrserver, skipped the already running watch; a start after a real SteamVR start/boot is not yet seen. Details: docs/FRAME_RUNTIME.md "Overlay apps".
+
+## Vader's leak solved / AC Nexus flips
+
+**Vader's leak solved / AC Nexus flips (2026-10-14):** Vader Immortal leaves GL errors pending on its context; SteamVR's GL interop (`openxr_graphics_gl_openvr.cpp`, `xrclient_<pkg>.txt` in Steam's logs: `SXR_GL_CHECK: error:0x502 ... glGenTextures`) takes the stale error as its own failure once, and from then on `CVRCompositorSharedTextures::BeginCommandBuffer` allocates a command buffer every frame (perf page-fault stacks; ~430 renderD128 mappings + 22 MB/s). Adapter `gl_error_clear` (GLES, catalog on for Vader ep1-3) clears them before xrCreateSwapchain/xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame: flat memory, no SXR_GL_CHECK (headless). The per-game `xrclient_<pkg>.txt` logs are worth reading for runtime errors. The Frame's runtime caps swapchains per session (XR_ERROR_LIMIT_REACHED from ~15; AC Nexus asks for more): flip emulation now turns quads upright in place (scratch VkImage, once per acquire; transfer usage added to single-layer colour swapchains) instead of a shadow swapchain per quad, which ran into the cap (#138). Headless sessions don't draw AC Nexus's panels (adapter `flip_dump` saves before/after images of flipped quads, for headset runs).
+
+## Unreal's self-restart
+
+**Unreal's self-restart (agent v90, 2026-10-13):** UE 4.21+ restarts the app once after its first-run shader
+precompile ("optimizing" screen; `r.ProgramBinaryCache.RestartAndroidAfterPrecompile`): it starts its own LAUNCHER
+activity and calls System.exit(0); Lepton ends the container with the first process (the restarted one with it).
+Skipping `AndroidThunkJava_RestartApplication` or the cvar = 0 (accepted via UE4CommandLine.txt `-ini:`) left Sports
+Scramble on that level for good. launch.sh (RESTART_BLOCK, `upgrade_launchers` adds it) starts Lepton once more when
+`_restart_requested` sees the app's own LAUNCHER start (system log, uid >= 10000) <= 5 s before its exit; first run
+kept as `launch-before-restart.log`; `FRAMEPORT_NO_RESTART=1` off. Owner-verified with Sports Scramble's first start (2026-10-13).
+
+## xrWaitFrame runs ahead (Journey of the Gods)
+
+**xrWaitFrame runs ahead (Journey of the Gods, 2026-10-14, owner-verified):** with real frames (headset on) the
+Frame's runtime sometimes returns from xrWaitFrame at once with a display time less than one refresh after the frame
+just submitted, and then rejects the second submission for that refresh (`VRCompositorError_AlreadySubmitted` in
+Steam's `logs/xrclient_<pkg>.txt`; FrameBridge pacing above the display rate). VrApi games that render faster than
+the display ran ahead (~120 submits/s at 90 Hz) and the scene slid and snapped back. The VrApi bridge re-waits when
+the new display time is under half a period after the last submitted one (`pacing 2s:` counters). Headless runs only
+submit empty frames and never show it. Lepton's logcat mirror also missed the whole verifying session (launch.log =
+Lepton's own lines only): the keeper now catches a silent mirror too (agent v91).
+
+## Lepton's logcat mirror dies
+
+**Lepton's logcat mirror dies (agent v67, 2026-10-09; v91 2026-10-14):** Lepton's mirror (`podman exec -it <container> logcat -v threadtime,color`) fails three ways: `logcat: Unexpected EOF!` right after the game starts, `Logcat read failure`, or running and writing nothing at all (Lepton 3.0.5: seen twice on 2026-10-14, once in the owner's session, once headless). launch.sh's `_logcat_keeper` reads `podman exec <container> logcat -v threadtime -T <epoch>` itself into launch.log after a failure line or 20 s without a logcat line (from the launcher's start when the mirror never wrote, else from just before its last line), restarts it from where it ended (≤5), stops it when Lepton's coloured lines come back, sets the container's log buffer to 16 MiB (`logcat -G`), and logs every decision to `<base>/logcat-keeper.log`. Checked on the dev Frame: a mirror killed mid-game (hand-over without a gap) and a silent mirror (the whole session recovered).
+
+## Double launch
+
+**Double launch (agent v57, 2026-10-06):** a second Play while Lepton still boots (~10 s with nothing to see) made
+the second Lepton stop the first one's container ("Waiting for steamlaunch-<appid> (PID …) to exit", exit 137
+"(starting)", "Clearing baked app data due to early exit") and both died (Vader, BattleSisters). launch.sh now takes
+`flock` on `<base>/.launch.lock` (fd 9, inherited by Lepton; the watchdog and dashboard helpers close it with
+`9>&-`); a second launch exits 0 and logs to `<base>/launch-dup.log`. `upgrade_launchers` adds it to existing
+launchers. Verified on the device (second launch during boot: ignored, the first kept running). Vader on its loading
+card ignores input too (owner pressed/held every button: presses reach the runtime, the card never changes).
+
+## Issue triage round (2026-10-06)
+
+**Issue triage round (2026-10-06, owner's headset):** vibration in OVRPlugin games = 2 s vibrations updated per frame and
+stopped with amplitude 0; FrameBridge turns amplitude 0 into xrStopHapticFeedback (else each buzz ran 2 s), haptic_fix
+uses the envelope RMS (was its peak), per-game `haptic_scale` → Creed/The Boys/Jurassic World fine. Lambda1VR (TBXR):
+loader named by Build.MANUFACTURER (`frame.tbxr_vendor`), no graphics extension enabled (FrameBridge adds
+XR_KHR_opengl_es_enable + asks for the requirements on -50), always multisampled render-to-texture (GL shim gives
+single-sampled stand-ins when GL_EXT_multisampled_render_to_texture is hidden) + its xash/ data → works. Jurassic World:
+`frame.vrapi_stub`. Metro Awakening: contributor's vkshim fixes + hide_space_warp + no VALVE_rpo (jumping polygons like
+ITR2). Pinball FX VR: hide_space_warp (stutters). Eleven: a Meta online request fails after platform init → needs Meta
+services. Star Wars Tales: top half black + freeze after loading; ruled out: asset-file paks (never requested), Valve
+foveation (off: no change), GL errors (MESA_DEBUG=1: none), EGL_BAD_ACCESS once in OVRPlugin init (harmless); the game's
+eye image reads back black. BlazeRush: VrApi bridge exports + ovr*_ToString stubs + avatar stub get it to the menu room
+at 72 fps, full input reaches it (diagnostics `input 5s`: Touch type only, sticks 1.0, buttons, poses 0x8f), but the room
+draws no controllers and ignores input; avatar loader forced to its "Failed" path (no logged-in user) changed nothing.
+`frame.ovr_trace` can't trace Unity games (P/Invoke dlsym; nothing imports ovr_*). Headless: the VrApi bridge's 30 s
+head-pose deadline ends VR mode without a worn headset (not a game bug).
+
+## Lepton storage
+
+**Lepton storage (2026-09-30):** each app's /sdcard (= /storage/emulated/0 → `<base>/lepton-data/external`) has `Movies`/`Download`/`Documents` symlinked to the Frame's `~/Videos`/`~/Downloads`/`~/Documents` (liblepton/mounting.sh, only if they exist at start); agent v24 `storage_targets` reads that mapping. Android's MediaProvider canonicalises paths to /home/steamos/... and rejects every file ("doesn't appear under [/system/media...]"), `sm list-volumes` is empty: the media index never works, apps must browse folders. Lepton installs with `adb install -g` (runtime permissions granted, MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE too). Files: `install/files.py`, `frameport frame send|storage`, GUI Files tab (formerly Frame → Send files).
+
+## SteamVR per-app settings
+
+**SteamVR per-app settings (2026-09-30):** editing steamvr.vrsettings while SteamVR runs is lost; the web API (127.0.0.1:27062 /app/setsettings) needs `x-steamvr-secret`. `native/vrsettings` = `fp_vrsettings.exe` (freestanding, OpenVR `FnTable:IVRSettings_003` as a Utility app, loads SteamVR's bin/win64/openvr_api.dll) sets them live and SteamVR persists them: section `steam.app.<shortcut appid>`, keys `preferredRefreshRate` (float) and `motionSmoothingOverride` (0 global, 1 on, 2 off, 3 always). Steam Link (vrlink) lists the Frame's rates 72/80/90/96/108/120/144 in vrserver.txt and follows the per-app preference ("host preferred N Hz"; whether the key is honoured is unverified in-headset yet). Judder metric: vrcompositor.txt session summary dropped + "Timed out. N total" (Stormland: 0 dropped but 313 timeouts in 2 min); fpsVR (`%LOCALAPPDATA%\fpsVR\*.json`, 0.1 ms histograms) gives p99 CPU/GPU ms. `pcvr.steamvr_tuning` (default on, PC only) applies on Play: highest rate whose budget ≥ p99×1.05, at least one step down, smoothing on.
+
+
+## Language packs
+
+**Language packs (merged from PR #20, 2026-10-04):** overport's `libovrplatformloader.so` is a dispatcher that `dlopen`s Meta's own loader (`libovrplatformloader_meta.so` / `_meta_q1.so`, also `libpxrplatformloader.so`) and keeps its own message queue; `ovr_LanguagePack_GetCurrent/SetCurrent` are 8-byte `return 0` stubs in it, `ovr_AssetFile_GetList` forwards to Meta's loader. `frame.langpacks` (opt-in, `native/langpack`) serves `<tag>.lang` files from the game's data; `elf.hide_exports` marks the loader's exports STB_LOCAL (bionic and glibc only match GLOBAL/WEAK; verified for glibc, bionic's `is_symbol_global_and_defined` is from memory). `libfp_langpack.so` is built here (`python native/build.py --only langpack`) and committed. Owner-verified 2026-10-04: Deadpool VR with only `en.lang` and the patch on plays English dialogue and runs normally (headless launch tests show 2-6 fps while it loads: not a regression sign). A dispatcher answer that arrives after we answered the timed-out GetList is dropped (one answer per request); games already in a library get `lang_packs` filled after an app update (`library._refresh_data_fields`). The library logs to logcat under the tag `fp_langpack` (dirs looked in, packs found, every language-pack call), so it shows up in the game's `launch.log`; an `ovr_AssetFile_GetList` the dispatcher leaves unanswered for 1.5 s is answered with our packs alone. Deadpool VR (Unreal) accepts a pack only when its `Metadata` equals the game's own version string (`ULanguagePacksSubsystem` compares it with `%s.%s.%s.%s.%s` built from the build info, e.g. `1.0.40.356975.Quest` = versionName; found by disassembling `libUE4.so`): the patch writes the APK's versionName into the library (`@FPMETA@` slot, `with_metadata`), `FRAMEPORT_LANGPACK_META` overrides it. Deadpool VR (2026-10-04, headset): German became selectable with that Metadata, but dialogue stayed silent (even English once reported as a pack) while the path was spelled `/sdcard/Android/obb/<pkg>/x.lang`; with the `/storage/emulated/0/Android/obb/<pkg>/x.lang` spelling (Unreal's own, now listed first in `scan_dirs`) German dialogue plays. `FRAMEPORT_LANGPACK_SKIP=<tags>` or a file `fp_langpack_skip` in the obb folder leaves packs out of the list (experiments).
+
+
+## Cube swapchains
+
+**Cube swapchains (GitHub #107, 2026-10-09):** the Frame's runtime refuses `faceCount=6` swapchains (-2,
+XR_ERROR_RUNTIME_FAILURE); OVRPlugin ignores that ("CreateSwapchain for eye 0: 0x0, 0 stages") and crashes in
+ovrp_EndFrame4 (memset). FrameBridge `cube_standin` (default on, `native/adapter/cube_standin.c`) serves a refused cube
+swapchain as one GL cube-map texture in the app's context (GLES only) and drops its layers. Verified headless with
+Budget Cuts Ultimate (2048² sRGB, 12 mips; runs on at ~70 fps); what the cube layer showed is simply missing.
+
+## Hardware video decoding
+
+**Hardware video decoding (PR #96, PR #128 by Lucas-Mathieu, adapted 2026-10-10, agent v71):** `native/hevc` = one
+OMX plugin `OMX.frameport.{avc,hevc,vp9}.decoder` (FFmpeg v4l2m2m on Iris /dev/video-dec0, FFmpeg software decoders as
+fallback inside the component, Vulkan copy for big native surfaces). The connection installs it once per Frame
+(`ensure_video_codec` → agent `video_codec_status`/`install_video_codec`: `~/.local/share/frameport/video-codec/versions/
+<manifest sha>` + `current` symlink). A Frame keeps the same or a newer `revision` (no flip-flop between PCs) → **bump
+`revision` in native/hevc/build.py with every artifact change**; a failed install isn't retried during the connection.
+Per game: only launchers of games whose recipe has `frame.hw_video_decode` (install stage, no APK change; suggested
+from analysis `media_codec`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 8; deployment.json `hw_video_decode`) get the codec line → the Podman
+wrapper (native/hevc/podman.py) mounts the plugin into that container (merged media_codecs.xml in
+$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/frameport-video). Off for every game: Settings → Installing (library `video.hw_decode` → agent
+`video_codec_switch` = video-codec/disabled); one game: `FRAMEPORT_NO_HW_VIDEO=1 %command%`. `upgrade_launchers`
+converts agent ≤70 launchers (Batman's `<base>/frameport-codec` → keeps the line, folder then removed). Batman: catalog
++ migration `batman_video_patches` (`frame.hw_video_decode` + hidden adapter setting `surface_native`). Iris: 8K
+refused (ENOMEM) while any other decoder session is open; SteamVR's vrlinkrunthread holds one ~12 s at game start →
+refused opens retry until 20 s after the plugin loaded (else 2 s), then software; VP9 7680x3840 never returned a
+picture → VP9 ≤4096x2304; hidden VP9 frames come back as empty capture buffers (bytesused 0, no LAST):
+FFmpeg's wrapper ended the EOS drain at the first one (two-pass VP9 lost its last ~25 frames) → build.py requeues
+them (codec revision 8; drain ends at LAST, or 1 s after a skipped empty buffer; dev Frame 2026-10-10: 600/600 =
+OMX.google.vp9 Y hashes). Rebuilds are deterministic (ext4 + NTFS path
+with spaces, two NDK copies → same; rev 8 141de01f…; PR #128's own sources → its 27a2d749…). Not yet run on the device.
+
+## Vulkan shader dump
+
+**Vulkan shader dump (GitHub #140, 2026-10-10):** adapter `vk_shader_dump=1` (Vulkan shim, `native/vkshim/shader_dump.h`;
+applies where vk_sanitize can: Unreal/Other arm64) writes each distinct SPIR-V module once to
+`files/fp_vk_shaders/<size>_<sha256>.spv` (tmp + rename) and one `index.txt` line per vkCreateShaderModule (`<seq> <ms>
+<unix ms> <name> new|known|again|failed`, O_APPEND) to find the module behind a GPU hang. Agent v72 `collect_diag`
+returns `shaders` (newest modules of fp_vk_shaders + fp_spirv, ≤4 MB each, base64) → bundle
+`games/<pkg>/target/shaders/`. Triage `gpu-hang` suggests both dumps; `triage.graphics_api` (FrameBridge's
+xrCreateSwapchain formats: <0x1000 Vulkan, else GL) keeps only the session's API's (`API_ONLY`). Host-tested only.
+Agent v74: a reporter's hang came ~10 s after the last new module, so the culprit wasn't among the newest written →
+with an index naming modules, `shader_dumps` sends every module of the index's **newest session** (after the last
+`# start`), deduplicated, last used first, each ≤4 MB, ≤30 MB in all (`session` = how many it names) + that session's
+index lines; no index (fp_spirv) = the old newest-by-mtime 4 MB. One JSON line (~40 MB base64) over the SSH channel
+is read whole by `Frame.agent` (fine at that size); `_Writer.fit` drops the least recently used modules last, after
+cutting logs, to stay under the 24 MB zip limit.
+
+## Unreal OBB check
+
+**Unreal OBB check (GitHub #159, 2026-10-10):** Epic's DownloaderActivity checks OBB name+size (OBBData), then with `bVerifyOBBOnStartUp=true` CRCs the whole OBB; its screens are invisible in Lepton (stuck at `Displayed …/.DownloaderActivity`, triage `unreal-obb-check-stuck`) → `frame.unreal_skip_obb_check` (analysis `unreal_verify_obb`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 11) flips the manifest boolean (`axml.set_meta_data_bool`); skips only the CRC pass. Host-tested only.
+
+## Issue round 2026-10-12
+
+**Issue round 2026-10-12 (agent v83):** Lepton pastes STEAM_COMPAT_DATA_PATH unquoted into `sh -c "ln -s …/internal/<pkg>
+/data/data/<pkg>"` (mounting.sh): a game on a card named "Steam Frame 512g" got no internal storage (no saves/prefs;
+Beyond Sandbox's EOS then looped `createKeychain→resetKeychain` forever, 1.85 GB log). Quest launchers with an unsafe
+path now `ln -sfn <base> ~/.local/share/frameport/lepton-paths/<pkg>` at every start and give Lepton that path
+(`app_dir_lines`/`set_app_dir`/`launcher_base`; upgrade_launchers converts; deployment.json keeps the real base).
+Verified on the device with a spaced copy of Stremio (old: the `ln` error; new: /data/data link, shared_prefs

+OpenSSH refuses FramePort's key file (ACL "bad permissions") until its permissions are tightened.
+
+## OpenSSH uploads
+
+**OpenSSH uploads (2026-10-15, #324/#242):** sftp escapes `* ? [` inside double quotes itself (and undoes it for
+put's destination), so `native_upload.quote` escapes only `\\`/`"`; Win32 sftp turns every local backslash into `/`
+(escapes too) → local paths go as `C:/…`. Logins: `Frame.auth` = the attempt that worked (app_key / user_key = a key
+file from Settings → Installing → SSH keys, library `ssh.extra_keys`, CLI `frame ssh-keys` / agent / password).
+OpenSSH strict (FramePort + Settings keys, IdentitiesOnly) unless auth was "agent"; a refused strict login retries
+relaxed (+ private copies of ~/.ssh/id_{rsa,dsa,ecdsa,ed25519}: OpenSSH skips its defaults once any -i is given, + the
+agent); `-v` key lines go into the error. FramePort doesn't add its key to the Frame for this. Windows-tested.
+
+## Meta user id
+
+**Meta user id (GitHub #182, 2026-10-11):** OVRPort's platform loader (runtimes 3.4.3-23204ea and -aa54c3f) answers
+`ovr_GetLoggedInUserID` (and two other callers) without a Meta account with a made-up id from a helper (`stp; mov x29,
+sp; bl random; …; mov/movk x9 = 0x53444835ec580000 (6e18); add x0, x8, x9; ldp; ret`), kept only in memory → a new id
+every start; Walkabout Mini Golf files saves under `Profiles/Oculus/<id>/` and lost all progress. `frame.ovr_stable_user`
+(default_on, detect = the game has libovrplatformloader.so) rewrites the helper to `mov x0, <6e18 + 32 bits of
+sha256(package, keystore)>; ret`: stable per game and per user (keystores are personal), so online games never see two
+FramePort users as one. Found in every PATCHED build checked. Host-tested only; upstream candidate.
+
+## Vivox API 31
+
+**Vivox API 31 (GitHub #101, 2026-10-09):** newer Vivox builds (Green Hell VR) call Android 12 AudioManager
+communication-device methods from `com.vivox.sdk.AudioChangeListener` with no SDK check → NoSuchMethodError on Lepton's
+Android 11. `frame.vivox_audio_route` (analysis `vivox_api31`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 4) makes every such method return at
+once (`Dex.return_early`: return-void / `const/4 v0,0; return v0`; nopping the invoke would leave a move-result the
+verifier rejects). Older Vivox (Eleven Table Tennis, BattleSisters) lacks that code and isn't matched. Verified
+headless: Vivox initialises, 150 s at ~65-70 fps.
+Photon Voice does the same (GitHub #362 Table Troopers, #325): `com.exitgames.photon.audioinaec.AudioInAEC.
+updateAudioDevice` (void; only caller of getAvailableCommunicationDevices/setCommunicationDevice, reached from the mic
+thread `AudioInAEC$1.run` via access$000; no SDK_INT check left) → sibling patch `frame.photon_voice_audio_route`
+(analysis `photon_voice_api31`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 21; shares `vivox_audio_route.patch_class`; Vivox's id, title and
+output unchanged, no revision bump). Triage: `vivox-api31` / `photon-voice-api31` now need the SDK's class in the
+stack; any other `*CommunicationDevice*` NoSuchMethodError = `audio-api31` (report). Host-tested on the real dex only.
+
+## Steam Input gamepad for 2D apps
+
+**Steam Input gamepad for 2D apps (GitHub #162, agent v72, 2026-10-10):** Lepton's Android only has the Wayland seat's `wayland_touch/keyboard/pointer`. Steam makes its virtual pad (uinput, `/devices/virtual/input`, 28de:11ff, "Microsoft X-Box 360 pad N", ACL for steamos) only while the Frame's controllers are on (controller.txt "Steam Controller reserving XInput slot 0"; gone when they sleep), also with no game running; steamos-manager's 28de:0000 keys device isn't a pad (no BTN_SOUTH). Lepton's container root (system_server too) = steamos (`keep-id:uid=0`), so a bind-mounted `/dev/input/eventN` opens. Opt-in `device.steam_gamepad` (vr_kind none; suggested for `android.hardware.gamepad`/`LEANBACK_LAUNCHER`, analysis `gamepad`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 9): deployment.json `steam_gamepad` → launcher `GAMEPAD_LINE` (after the codec line: exports FRAMEPORT_GAMEPAD + LEPTON_ENV_SDL_GAMECONTROLLER_ALLOW_STEAM_VIRTUAL_GAMEPAD, puts `agent/bin` first on PATH) → `PODMAN_WRAPPER` (written by ensure_host_fixes; non-`run` calls go straight on; `run` imports the agent's `podman_run_args`; hands on to the next Podman after its own PATH entry with itself removed from PATH, so it chains to the codec wrapper either way round) adds the pads + `Vendor_28de_Product_<pid>.kl` (Xbox 360 layout). Verified headless with a uinput stand-in pad (Stremio's container: EventHub `classes=0x80000141`, our key layout, KeyEvent BUTTON_A dispatched); with Steam's real pad and a game: not yet. Pads made after the start aren't seen until the next one.

+## Multiview programs on flat framebuffers (Doom3Quest)
+
+**Multiview programs on flat framebuffers (GitHub #77, Doom3Quest, 2026-10-09, prototype):** Mesa enforces OVR_multiview's
+"program num_views == draw framebuffer views" rule (`draw_validate.c`, the draw is dropped silently); Qualcomm doesn't.
+Doom3Quest compiles every VS with `layout(num_views=2) in;` and draws its HUD/PDA into 2D-texture FBOs → black. Opt-in
+`frame.gl_multiview_fbo` (analysis `gl_multiview_libs`, ANALYSIS_VERSION 6; own-engine GLES only): `native/glmv` =
+`libfpglmv.so` (12 chars = "libGLESv3.so": libdoom3.so's one `.rodata` dlopen string is rewritten in place, its qgl*
+table comes from dlsym on that handle; also first DT_NEEDED for its direct gl*/egl* imports). Such draws use a lazily
+built single-view twin (view 0, uniforms copied per draw); eglMakeCurrent resets the per-thread cache. Host-tested only
+(rewriter on all 19 Doom3Quest shaders + glmv.c against a stand-in GL, `tests/test_gl_multiview_fbo.py`); the host's
+Mesa 23.2 llvmpipe has no OVR_multiview. Headset-verified by Xandrix1987 (2026-10-09: HUD/PDA shown, no fps drop) -> in the Doom3Quest catalog recipe.
+
+## BlazeRush
+
+**BlazeRush (GitHub #57, Klownicle's verified guide, 2026-10-10; FramePort's version headless-tested only):**
+`frame.blazerush` (1.0.349 only: exec-segment SHA + every word checked, offsets from PT_LOAD) NOPs the avatar-readiness
+wait (0x4b2dbc), RETs the avatar renderer (0x4b2adc), renames `cache/shader_cache` → `cache/br_shader_v1`. GL shim
+(now also exports glShaderSource/glLinkProgram/glProgramBinary/glDeleteProgram/glDraw*: pass-through unless a setting
+is on) `gl_int_attribs` (integer inputs fed via glVertexAttribPointer re-set with glVertexAttribIPointer per draw,
+reflection cached per EGL context + program, dropped on link/binary/delete) and `gl_highp_markers` (vertex shaders with
+every '|' marker: mediump→highp except on in/out/uniform lines); host test `tests/test_blazerush.py` with a stand-in
+GL. FOV: the game reads VrApi props 7/8 right after vrapi_Initialize (no session; the Frame has no
+XR_EPIC_view_configuration_fov) → the bridge saves the live FOV (also located before tracking, headless: 118.87×120.04
+on the dev Frame) in `files/framebridge-vrapi-fov.txt` and answers with it at the next start (log `FOV properties: …
+(saved by an earlier session)`). `device.config_sync` (catalog field `config_sync`, agent v78): user_config.xml
+r_3dwidth/height, r_width/height from the runtime eye size (FrameBridge logs `runtime recommended eye size`) × scale,
+written at finalize, set_settings and by launch.sh before Lepton starts (`_config_sync`). Headless runs at scale 1.7
+end in `zink: DEVICE LOST` right after the bridge's 30 s no-tracking deadline tears the session down (gpu fault at the
+teardown; not at scale 1.0): a headless-only artifact, the headset never hits that deadline. Launch tests count an exit/crash after
+such a line as a pass (triage.yaml `headless_end`, finding `headless-end`; GitHub #57 "Failed to launch" on install).
+
+## Session triage
+
+**Session triage (agent v70, 2026-10-09):** launch tests never reach FOCUSED, so real play sessions are triaged
+too. list_installed gives each game `last_play` {start, end, test} from `<anchor>/plays.log` (launch tests write a
+`test <unix>` line first → test sessions are only marked); `session_log` returns the newest session's launch.log
+(`<base>/session.log`, ≤4 MB: head + tail + FrameBridge/crash lines between) + that session's logcat-crash.log +
+`journalctl -k` GPU lines ("kernel: …"). The GUI's connection refresh (`app._check_sessions` → `pipeline.sessions_due`,
+background thread; sessions >7 days old are skipped) runs `pipeline.triage_session` = `validate/session.analyze`
+(triage.yaml signatures incl. `space-warp-used` (info, `question:`, never auto-applied), `gpu-hang` (`report: true`)
++ computed `slow-frames` (pacing windows vs the nearest refresh rate) and `focus-dips` (FrameBridge always logs
+`focus: lost` / `focus: back after N ms`, session_fixes.c)) → library `last_session` / `last_session_checked` → game
+page "Last session" callout (Try this fix / Rebuild with this fix / Yes-No question / Report / Dismiss). Suggestions may
+be values (`adapter.scale=0.85`, `triage.split_suggestion`); adapter-only fixes are pushed live (`apply_suggestions_live`
+→ agent set_settings, like the Game settings dialog). CLI `frameport session <pkg> [--apply]`. PC VR (Proton) launchers
+log no session end, so they aren't triaged yet. pac_hints stays triage-only: a survey of all 68 dump APKs found unpaired
+PAC hints in 21 libraries of 18 games (OpenSSL's 38/40 in most UE4 libUE4.so and libEOSSDK.so, UE5 libUnreal.so ~400
+vs +2-3, libass, libopencv, …), most of them games that work, so default-on would rewrite many working builds.
+
+## Install links / FrameDrop button protocol
+
+**Install links / FrameDrop button protocol (2026-10-07, not yet clicked end to end from a browser):** FrameDrop
+(framedropvr.com, a closed-source Windows sideloader) defines "Install with FrameDrop" buttons:
+`https://framedropvr.com/install?manifest=<url>|url=<file>` → that page opens `framedrop://install?…` (1.6 s, else its
+home page); manifest `{"schema":"framedrop.install/v1","name","files":[{"url","sha256"}]}` (name = Steam title; .apk
+or Linux .zip). `deeplink.py` (no Flet) parses framedrop://, frameport:// and the pasted https link, enforces its
+rules (https; http only on loopback; no credentials; no LAN/loopback/link-local IPs, also after DNS and redirects; URL
+ends in a file name), caps manifests at 256 KiB, ignores non-hex sha256 (FrameDrop's own example has a placeholder),
+downloads into `<data>/downloads/<slug>-<hash>/` (OBBs → `obb/` next to the APK, `.part` removed on cancel/mismatch);
+`pipeline.add_from_link` routes APK / Linux / exe and sets `title` + `title_locked` + `link` (a bare file link keeps
+FramePort's title). GUI: `views/link_dialog.py` (always asks first), Add games → "Install from a link…", CLI
+`frameport open-link [--yes --no-install --gui]`. **A `flet build` bundle can't take a URL argument** (the Flutter
+host treats any argv as a developer page URL), so `urlhandler.py` registers a script, not FramePort.exe: Windows
+HKCU `Software\Classes\{framedrop,frameport}` → hidden PowerShell `frameport-link-handler.ps1`; WSL (source runs)
+the same keys → `wsl.exe -d <distro> -e sh frameport-link-handler.sh`; Linux `frameport-links.desktop` +
+`xdg-mime`; macOS unsupported (Apple Events, paste instead). The script drops the link into `<data>/links/*.link`
+and starts FramePort unless `<data>/gui.alive` is < 10 s old (`gui.starting` stops double starts); the GUI's
+`_watch_links` thread touches the heartbeat and opens links (newest window session). Settings → Install links: one
+switch per scheme (`links.framedrop`, `links.frameport`, default on); a scheme another program owns (FrameDrop) is
+only taken with "Use FramePort for these links" (`register([s], force=True)`); off removes only FramePort's own
+registration (`MARK` in the command). Never registered with FRAMEPORT_HOME/FRAMEPORT_NO_LINK_HANDLER (tests,
+screenshots). Same round: files dropped on the Library (`ui/dropped.py`, bundles only like the Files tab), "Add a
+Windows program (.exe)…" (`pipeline.add_windows_exe`: exe in Downloads/home/drive root copied alone into
+`<data>/windows-apps/<slug>/`), patch `device.display_mode` (Automatic / VR / Flat window → `InstallContext.display`,
+`installer.show_window`). FramePort-only manifest extension `"frameport": {"description", "icon"}` (bad values ignored; icon: same URL rules,
+≤2 MiB, Pillow-checked, ≥32 px, saved as PNG in `<data>/downloads/icons/`, shown in the question by asset URL, then
+`sources.apply_custom(pkg, "icon")` unless `.picked` exists; description fills `details.description` only when
+empty). Bare file links get a title guessed from the file name (`title_from_filename`: version/arch dropped, package
+names → last part). Windows test of 0.12.1.dev191 (2026-10-07): a button click opened the dialog; but a click right
+after closing FramePort did nothing (the closed window's heartbeat was < 10 s old) → the handler scripts now wait
+up to 4 s for the link file to be taken before trusting the heartbeat, the window's CLOSE event / atexit delete
+`gui.alive`, and the Windows command runs under `conhost.exe --headless` (plain `-WindowStyle Hidden` flashed a
+console). Screens: `scripts/ui_smoke.py --links --fake-frame --game <pkg>` (tall pages: `--viewport
+1280x7000`; Flutter's popup menu ignores Escape).
+Demo link: the homepage's example button = `deeplink.DEMO_MANIFEST` (https://frameport.app/demo/cool-game.json, published
+from site/public/demo/); every form (https button page, frameport://, framedrop://, pasted) → `InstallRequest.demo`,
+no network (fetch_manifest returns `demo_manifest()`, download refuses), `link_dialog.show_demo` (Install =
+`easter.demo_install`: Cool Game's cover out of the portal; eggs off → "Nice, it works!"), CLI just says so.
+Link updates (2026-10-17): manifest `version` (top level, or `frameport.version`, which wins; ≤64 chars) is stored in
+the entry's `link` record (+ `direct`); `pipeline.check_link_updates` (GUI start via `app._check_link_updates`, every
+6 h: setting `links.last_update_check`, off with `links.check_updates`) re-fetches web manifests that named a version
+(`deeplink.can_check_updates`: not bare file links, local manifests or the demo) and sets/clears `link_update`
+{version, checked}; versions compare with `deeplink.compare_versions` (numbers, then release > suffix). UI: Library
+`link_bar` + game page callout → `link_dialog.update_from_link` (fetch again, one confirmation, `download_and_install`
+per game; add_from_link clears the offer and keeps a name the user gave). CLI `frameport link-updates [--install]`.

+  app = steamos), mostly mode 600/660 in 700/771/775/2771 folders; Lepton's links (`Android/obb/<pkg>`, `Movies`,

+  exec channel's stdout, the result JSON on stderr. Left out: folders named cache/code_cache/no_backup/il2cpp/
+  UnityShaderCache/(Vulkan)ProgramBinaryCache/GPUCache/… at any depth, Unreal `Saved/Logs|Crashes`, FrameBridge's
+  `fb_snap_*`/`framebridge*` files, `.obb/.apk/.foz/.mp4/.mkv/.webm/.mov`, symlinks and special files, and files over

+  under `internal/`/`external/` (no `..`, absolute paths, links, devices, duplicates), ≤1 GiB per file / 8 GiB in all,
+  each file's sha256 must match the manifest, the manifest's package must be the game. Everything is staged in
+  `<base>/.saves-restore-*` first, a path that would pass through a link on the Frame is refused, then the current
+  saves are written to `<base>/saves-before-restore.tar.gz` (one copy; `rollback: true` restores it and keeps the
+  replaced saves as the new copy) and each file is renamed into place. Existing files keep their owner and mode, new

A game's recipe is its chosen patches and settings; tested games get theirs from the catalog ([GAMES.md](GAMES.md)), and other games get the patches FramePort suggests from its analysis. You change them on the game page under Customize.
 
 Each entry says what the patch does, whether it changes the APK or only the install, when FramePort suggests it, its options, the catalog games whose recipe names it and the launch-test signatures that suggest it. Patches that are on by default are on for every game, so the catalog rarely names them.

Custom radius is a fraction of the shorter eye-image dimension; the transition ends at twice that radius. Larger areas retain more detail but save less GPU work. Fixed stops the area following your eyes. The optional test darkens actual coarse-shaded fragments; rebuild/reinstall to toggle it. Tested on RE4, Deadpool and Asgard's Wrath 2.

With Lepton's lepton-show-flatscreen marker the window is shown (behind the VR view, which keeps working) and Steam's keyboard opens for a selected text field.

+// Pipeline log for the Vulkan shim (adapter setting vk_pipeline_log=1, diagnostics; GitHub #349): when
+// vkCreateGraphicsPipelines / vkCreateComputePipelines fail (a result other than VK_SUCCESS, or a NULL pipeline), the
+// create infos are logged: per pipeline its flags, layout, render pass/subpass, the pNext structure types, sample count
+// and vertex formats, and per stage its stage bit, shader module (as the vk_shader_dump file name <size>_<sha256>.spv,
+// remembered at vkCreateShaderModule), entry point and pNext types. Sampler Y'CbCr conversions are followed through
+// samplers, descriptor set layouts (immutable samplers) and pipeline layouts, so a failing pipeline says whether it
+// samples through one ("ycbcr"). Conversions and samplers using one are logged when created.
+// Unreal treats a NULL pipeline as "Shader compilation failures are Fatal." (PipelineStateCache.cpp) without saying
+// why; this names the pipeline. Needs LOG(...), sha256() and readable() before inclusion (vkshim.c; the host test in

+/data/data/<pkg> folder and its /sdcard/Android/data/<pkg> folder, caches and big content left out; the archive's
+last member `frameport-saves.json` lists every file with size and sha256). Backups live on this PC in
+<user data>/save-backups/<pkg>/<YYYYmmdd-HHMMSS>.tar.gz with a <same>.json sidecar (the manifest without the file
+list); the newest `keep_count()` per game are kept (setting `saves.keep`). Restoring streams one back
+(`_restore_saves`): the agent checks the whole archive first (paths, links, sizes, hashes), keeps the Frame's current
+saves as <base>/saves-before-restore.tar.gz (one copy: `undo_restore`), then swaps the files in. Both refuse while the
+game runs. No Flet here: the GUI and the CLI share it.

+"""Cortopia Studios' Meta platform start-up waits forever for an org-scoped user id (Escaping Wonderland, GitHub #360).
+
+Cortopia's games start Meta's platform in `Cortopia.Scripts.Platform.Meta.OculusPlatform.Initialize` (an async
+method, `<Initialize>d__13.MoveNext`): Core.AsyncInitialize, Entitlements.IsUserEntitledToApplication,
+Users.GetLoggedInUser, and then, only when `Application.internetReachability` is ReachableViaLocalAreaNetwork,
+Users.GetOrgScopedID(user id), whose answer only becomes the game's AnalyticsID. OVRPort's platform library has no
+`ovr_User_GetOrgScopedID` (an export that returns request id 0, runtimes 3.4.3-23204ea and -aa54c3f); Meta's C#
+wrapper then logs "An unknown error occurred. Request failed." and never calls the callback, so the awaited task never
+finishes and the game stays on its loading screen with frames still paced.
+
+The game's own code skips that request when the device isn't on Wi-Fi/LAN (then the analytics id stays empty, as it
+does for offline players). This patch takes that path always: the `b.ne` after `cmp w0, #2` that follows the call to
+`get_internetReachability` in that method becomes an unconditional `b`. The licence check and the logged-in user come
+before it and are untouched. Methods are found with Cpp2IL; the site must match exactly once, with the
+GetOrgScopedID call inside the skipped part, or nothing is changed."""

+
+Unreal reserves virtual memory on Android with `mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1,
+0)` (FPlatformVirtualMemoryBlock::AllocateVirtual: Android has no separate commit step). Games built with
+FMallocBinned3 reserve the whole allocator range up front while libUnreal.so loads, 76 GiB in Transformers Beyond
+Reality. Quest's kernel lets that through; the Frame runs with the kernel's heuristic overcommit (mode 0), which

+out-of-memory handler runs before its log exists and dereferences a null pointer (SIGSEGV, fault addr 0x10, from a
+static constructor inside System.loadLibrary). Adding MAP_NORESERVE to those mmap calls gives them the Quest
+behaviour: pages are still only backed when touched, the mapping just isn't charged up front.
+
+Each site is `mov w3, #0x22` (MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS) a few instructions before a `bl` to mmap's PLT stub, with
