ducoterra d0077e0db4 phase: 09_wall_remote_page
Build and Push Containers / test (push) Successful in 45s
Build and Push Containers / build-and-push-app (push) Successful in 13s
**Phase 09 — final verification pass (all 3 tasks already in `complete/`; phase work was in the working tree, verified, nothing needed fixing)**

**Gates** — `uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check .` → clean; `uv run pyright` → 0 errors; `uv run pytest` → **360 passed, 5 skipped** (only the realdisplay rung), coverage 96% total / 95% app.py; `MIRROR_REALDISPLAY=1 uv run pytest -m realdisplay` → 4 passed, 1 skipped (documented host limitation: no audio source on the real X11 path); `uv run pytest tests/e2e/test_remote_control.py` → 8/8 passed; `node --check` on every `static/*.js` → all pass.

**Completion criteria** — all met: (1) "Show on wall" stages on the display, asserted on display DOM + `/api/kiosk` ✓; (2) Back/Fullscreen + untouched second controller converge (TestConvergence) ✓; (3) `/api/streams` reports `viewers: 0` / `watching: 0` with only `/remote` open (TestACostsNothing) ✓; (4) followers count displays only — 0/1/1 with a second controller (TestFollowers) ✓; (5) controller works with no display: `followers: 0`, state stored (protocol test + e2e) ✓; (6) e2e + full `-m e2e` + realdisplay all green ✓; (7) README + SECURITY.md updated, Silverblue default now `/kiosk` (installer, conf, gnome script, checker) ✓; (8) suite 100% green, coverage >90% on new code ✓; (9) PLAN.md untouched; AGENTS.md changed only for a stale statement ✓.

**Documentation** — README.md reviewed in full against code (page table, quickstart, env-var table vs `config.py`/`debug.py`, presets, keys, deployment, kiosk section): no inconsistencies found. AGENTS.md: fixed the one stale statement introduced by this phase ("Four pages" → "Five pages"); no other staleness, nothing added.

**Decisions** — no repo changes were required; the one realdisplay skip is a pre-documented environment fact, not a failure.

**Next pending phase** — none; `todo/` held only phase 09.

ducoterra 8fefd83ef8 feat(kiosk): self-recover a hung wall and page when it goes quiet
An unattended wall failed in two ways on 2026-11-02. It hard-hung with the kernel
alive but userspace unable to start a process: ssh completed the handshake and
closed 6-13 ms later with zero bytes and no banner, while 62 GiB RAM and zero OOM
lines rule out memory. Separately, the service knew at 14:03Z that nothing was
watching (healthz viewers:0) and nothing was reading it. It was discovered by
walking over to the panel.

Hang recovery, two independent layers (install step 7/9, asserted by
check-kiosk.sh):

- /etc/sysctl.d/90-mirror-wall-selfheal.conf: soft lockup, hard lockup and any
  oops escalate to a panic, and kernel.panic=30 reboots instead of parking.
- /etc/systemd/system.conf.d/90-mirror-wall-watchdog.conf: PID 1 must keep kicking
  the iTCO hardware watchdog or the chipset resets the box, which is the layer that
  covers a kernel too wedged to notice. Clamped to the driver's own 30s because
  systemd kicks at a third of whatever value it is handed.

Presence alerting: docs/wall-watch/ runs on the server host, probes loopback
/healthz (exempt from the address gate) every minute, debounces three checks, pages
over ntfy and then announces the recovery. WALL_DRILL=1 labels a test page in the
title, body and priority so a drill can never be mistaken for an incident.
Verified against a fake ntfy: caller environment wins over the config file, both
transitions fire, and the debounce holds.

Firewall (install step 8/9): drop FedoraWorkstation's 1025-65535/tcp. The UDP half
is load-bearing for peer-to-peer media (mirror deliberately uses no STUN/TURN) and
stays open; the TCP half was every high port on a box whose only access control is
its address. Measured, not assumed: a live share kept flowing at 459.6 kbit/s
inbound with the TCP range closed, and tcp/8080 stopped answering from a
same-subnet host.

Also fixed: install-kiosk.sh overwrote an existing client's kiosk.conf with its
built-in default URL, so re-running it to repair a wall silently repointed it at
the production default. An existing URL now wins and KIOSK_URL= is an explicit
change.

Documented with the evidence: why gnome-remote-desktop cannot share a gnome-kiosk
session (gnome-kiosk exports no org.gnome.Mutter.* names, so grd has nothing to
capture, and this image has grdctl rather than grdc), and why no userspace RDP
would have survived the hang either.

ducoterra d43eb407f8 phase: 03_audio_share
Build and Push Containers / test (push) Successful in 35s
Build and Push Containers / build-and-push-app (push) Successful in 11s
**Phase 03 final verification pass — complete, 100% green.**

- Verified all 4 tasks done in `complete/03_audio_share/`; confirmed implementation in `watch.js` (one composed `MediaStream` per tile, staged-only `setMuted()` policy, `data-audio` state), `share.js` (precise `NotAllowedError` rethrow, 3 honest `#stat-audio` states, mid-share audio republish), conftest flags, and the new `tests/e2e/test_audio_share.py` (11 tests, all **passed** — none skipped).
- **Criteria:** (1) viewer inbound audio `bytesReceived` strictly increases + composed stream 1 video/1 audio track while frames still decode — **passed**; (2) staged-only audio via keyboard `m`, mouse button, and `unstage()` re-mute — **passed**; (3) `shared`/`silent`/`not offered` + mid-share audio loss updates panel, roster and tiles — **passed**; (4) cancelled picker reports cancellation, single attempt — **passed**; (5) SECURITY.md §4 Audio, README platform notes, kiosk doc all describe shipped behaviour incl. Linux/PipeWire reality — **verified**; (6) full gate — **passed** (below).
- **Gates:** `uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check .` → clean; `uv run pyright` → 0 errors; `uv run pytest` → 245 passed, 4 skipped (only the `MIRROR_REALDISPLAY`-gated X11 tests); `MIRROR_REALDISPLAY=1 uv run pytest -m realdisplay` → 3 passed, 1 skipped (real-capture audio: documented skip naming the exact host/flag reason, per task 04).
- **Docs:** README.md reviewed in full against code (env table, CLI flags, routes, kiosk key table, quickstart, audio notes) — consistent, no changes needed. AGENTS.md — all commands/paths/coverage claims verified accurate, no stale statements, no changes needed.
- **Defect fixed (pre-existing):** `docs/kiosk-silverblue.md` + `install-kiosk.sh`, `kiosk.conf`, `gnome-kiosk-script` used `mirror.reeselink.com` while README/SECURITY.md use `mirror.reeseapps.com` (the deployment domain, consistent with the fleet); corrected 7 occurrences in 4 files.
- No live-infrastructure changes; realdisplay suite ran on private Xvfb only.
- **Next pending phase:** `04_reachable_share_cta`.

ducoterra 7d4bcf7e23 fix(kiosk): stop GDM covering the wall with a greeter after auto-login
Auto-login succeeded and the wall kept streaming, but about ten seconds
after the kiosk session came up GDM autospawned a greeter on the same GPU
and a login screen covered it. gnome-kiosk ships X-GDM-SessionRegisters=false,
so nothing ever registers and GDM concludes the display is still free — which
is why every remote check (loginctl, the mirror roster) stayed green while
the physical screen showed a password prompt.

Override that session file with the flag set to true, keeping the file name
and session id identical: inventing an id makes GDM quietly fall back to the
plain GNOME session, top bar and all.

Add a per-minute guard that reclaims the foreground VT, because this class
of failure is invisible from the outside, and have the checker assert both
the foreground VT and the greeter-session count. That count had a silent
false green: journalctl has no --no-legend, so the check read an empty
stream and passed unconditionally.

Also keep a copy of the payload in /usr/local/share/mirror-kiosk. /tmp is
cleared at every boot, which deletes the checker just after the one event
you are most likely to want to re-run it for.

Verified on the reference client: a cold boot now creates no greeter session
at all, the kiosk compositor and Firefox come up undisturbed, and a console
stolen with chvt is taken back within a minute.

ducoterra c5da9461a2 docs: the Silverblue kiosk client, installed and checked over SSH
A wall display is now a target client: Fedora Silverblue running GNOME
Kiosk, auto-logged in as kiosk, showing /watch fullscreen in Firefox.
docs/kiosk-silverblue/ carries the idempotent installer, a read-only
checker and a probe that measures what the browser actually renders, so
a second client is a copy-paste and nothing about it needs a keyboard.

The runbook records what the upstream tutorial leaves out: gsettings
only commits from inside the session (gnome-kiosk sets DCONF_PROFILE,
so a system dconf db is never read at all), window-config.ini wins by
being found first and therefore silently loses the shipped notification
rules, AccountsService caches Session= until its daemon restarts, and
/watch survives a bare LAN IP while /mirror cannot.

Verified on the reference client: cold boot back to a subscribed wall in
under 60s, viewport == window == screen at 3840x2160, and the sharer's
own peer connection to it reports connected.
