Build and Push Containers / test (push) Successful in 46s
Build and Push Containers / build-and-push-app (push) Successful in 8s
phase: 02_sharp_capture
**Phase 02 final verification pass — complete, 100% green.**

**Verified (all 4 tasks in `complete/02_sharp_capture/`):**
- Task 1: `pickSurface()` requests `screen × devicePixelRatio` (capped 3840×2160) instead of window size
- Task 2: `degradationPreference: "maintain-resolution"` + per-leg `maxBitrate`, re-applied after `setLocalDescription` *and* on `connected` (both call sites asserted in `test_app.py`)
- Task 3: default cap raised to 25 Mbit/s — `config.py` constant, `net.js` offline fallback, `.env.example`, README, and the drift-guard test all agree
- Task 4: realdisplay sharpness floor (viewer decoded width ≥ 1152px = 90% of Xvfb 1280px) in `test_sharp_picture_reaches_the_wall`

**Gates (all green):**
- `uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check .` → clean
- `uv run pyright` → 0 errors
- `uv run pytest` → 231 passed, 3 skipped (realdisplay), coverage 95%
- `MIRROR_REALDISPLAY=1 uv run pytest -m realdisplay` → 3 passed on a real Xvfb + headed Chromium

**Completion criteria:** (1) 90% width floor asserted on viewer's decoded pixels — PASS · (2) `/api/config` `maxBitrateBps: 25000000` default, net.js fallback agrees — PASS · (3) `#stat-resolution` matches viewer-decoded size incl. documented window downscale (1100×620, 1280×720 fake-device tests) — PASS · (4) both suites green, aspect-ratio guard (`1280/800` ± 0.06 + `≠ 1280×720`) still distinguishes real from fake capture — PASS · (5) README Configuration documents `25000000` — PASS; `PLAN.md` §6 "default 12 Mbit/s" left untouched as instructed — **flag for the user to amend**.

**Docs:** README — fixed suite timing `~20s → ~50s` (measured 49s); all other claims verified (CLI flags, dev extra, config table, kiosk key table vs. `watch.js`/`share.js` routers, kiosk commands vs. `docs/kiosk-silverblue.md`). AGENTS.md — same stale timing fixed, nothing else stale (all referenced test names/files exist).

**Notable:** `docs/kiosk-silverblue.md` + its scripts use `mirror.reeselink.com` while README/SECURITY.md/Containerfile use `mirror.reeseapps.com` — a pre-existing cross-file mismatch I could not resolve from the repo (both in same-day commits; live-infra fact). Left untouched; user should confirm the live kiosk URL. No live changes made.

**Next pending phase:** `03_audio_share`.

# mirror — Agent Operating Rules
**Read `.agents/PLAN.md` before touching anything here.** It holds the locked
architectural decisions; this file holds the rules for working inside them.
`mirror` is browser-only screen mirroring for a local network: `/mirror` shares a
window/screen/tab via the OS-native picker, `/watch` shows every live mirror and
lets anyone take one fullscreen. Media flows peer-to-peer over WebRTC; the server
is a roster and a signaling relay. Linux is the reference platform.
---
## 1. The order of reading
1. `.agents/PLAN.md` — architecture, locked anchors, verification ladder.
2. `README.md` — the user-facing contract.
3. `SECURITY.md` — why there is no authentication, and what that costs.
4. `src/mirror/registry.py` — the whole policy lives here. Read it before
changing behavior; it is short and it is the product.
## 2. Phased execution
```
.agents/
├── PLAN.md ← locked design (do not edit without an explicit decision)
└── phases/
├── todo/ ← pending phases: NN_name/00_phase.md + NN_task.md
└── complete/ ← finished phases, read-only history
```
* New work enters through the **`phase-authoring` skill**, never as a direct
implementation of a vague request.
* Phases run through the **`phased-execution` skill**.
* Never edit anything in `phases/complete/`. Ask before editing `phases/todo/`.
* Never edit `PLAN.md` unless the user explicitly authorises a change to a locked
decision, and record the reason in the same change.
* A phase is not done until every gate in §4 passes.
## 3. Locked decisions that are easy to break by accident
| Rule | Why it exists |
|---|---|
| **No external assets.** No CDN, remote font, remote icon, `@import`, or analytics | LAN/offline correctness. `tests/test_app.py::TestClientScripts::test_nothing_is_loaded_from_a_cdn` fails the build if you add one |
| **No framework, no bundler** in `src/mirror/static/` | Two pages and one WebSocket. `node --check` is the entire frontend toolchain |
| **Media never passes through the server** | The server relays JSON only. Anything that puts frames in the Python process violates A3 |
| **`Registry` stays pure** — no sockets, no FastAPI, no `await` | It returns `list[Envelope]`. Transport lives in `Hub`. This is why the policy has 100%-ish unit coverage |
| **camelCase on the wire, snake_case in Python**, via `alias_generator=to_camel` | A silently-dropped `displaySurface` was a real bug we shipped. Any new multi-word field needs an alias test |
| **No authentication** (A11) — but the **address is the access control** (A19) | Product brief: no accounts. What decides who gets in is `MIRROR_ALLOW_CIDRS` (`src/mirror/access.py`), enforced in the HTTP middleware *and* before the socket accepts. If you think it needs auth, that is a `PLAN.md` discussion first — and see `SECURITY.md` |
| **Trust `X-Forwarded-For` only from `MIRROR_TRUSTED_PROXIES`, left-most value only** | Otherwise a browser writes its own pass. The deployment's nginx must *overwrite* the header (`$remote_addr`, never `$proxy_add_x_forwarded_for`) — and the nginx `allow`/`deny` list and `MIRROR_ALLOW_CIDRS` change in the same commit |
| **`/healthz` stays exempt from the address gate** | The podman `HealthCmd` probes it from loopback, which the production list otherwise excludes — an exempt probe is why the container is not permanently unhealthy |
| **No STUN/TURN by default** | A LAN tool must not announce internal addresses to a third party |
| **Teardown is broadcast to every viewer**, not just subscribers | Tiles are drawn on `stream_added`; a non-subscribed viewer still has a stale tile to clear |
| **Keep both `<video>` elements `muted playsinline`** | Autoplay policy on iOS/Safari otherwise blocks the wall entirely |
## 4. Gates — run all four before calling anything done
```bash
uv run ruff check . && uv run ruff format --check .
uv run pyright # must be 0 errors
uv run pytest # unit + API + browser E2E (~50s)
MIRROR_REALDISPLAY=1 uv run pytest -m realdisplay # Linux-native X11 capture
```
Coverage is ~95%; the media path is covered by browser assertions, not by unit
tests pretending to be WebRTC.
## 5. Browser testing rules
Non-negotiable, all learned the hard way (full notes in `PLAN.md` §5):
* Launch with **`channel="chromium"`**. The headless shell has no media stack —
`navigator.mediaDevices` does not exist there.
* Serve pages over **`http://127.0.0.1:<port>`**. On `about:blank` or a plain
LAN IP, `mediaDevices` is undefined and the test proves nothing.
* Deterministic capture: `--use-fake-ui-for-media-stream
--use-fake-device-for-media-stream` → a real, *moving* monitor stream
(1280×720 by default; clamped to the capturing window when a size is
requested).
* Real capture (the `realdisplay` suite): private **Xvfb**, headed Chromium,
`--auto-select-desktop-capture-source="Entire screen"`, `--ozone-platform=x11`,
and **never** `--use-fake-ui-for-media-stream` (it approves the request without
selecting a source and the capturer dies with `NotReadableError`).
* **Strip `WAYLAND_DISPLAY` and `DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS`** from any headed
browser env (`tests/e2e/test_x11_capture.py::browser_env`). Otherwise the
portal captures the developer's actual desktop and pops a permission dialog on
their real screen.
* Assert media on the **viewer's** `<video>` — decoded size and *frames that
differ*. The sharer's preview proves nothing crossed the wire.
* Two browser **processes**, not two contexts, when a test means "two machines".
## 6. JavaScript rules
* Plain ES modules loaded with `<script type="module">`. No globals beyond
`window.__probe` in test scaffolding.
* Every element a script looks up (`$("#id")`) must exist in its page — enforced
by `test_every_element_the_script_reaches_for_exists`.
* Element ids must not collide **across** pages (one shared stylesheet):
`test_the_two_pages_share_no_element_ids_but_the_shared_chrome`. The only
allowed shared ids are `net`, `notice`, `toast`.
* WebRTC: the **sharer always offers, the viewer always answers**. Queue ICE
candidates until `remoteDescription` exists; serialise offers per peer to avoid
glare. Reuse `net.js` rather than duplicating socket logic.
* Never move a `<video>` element's `srcObject` to "switch views" — move the
element (that is how `/watch` staging works) so the peer connection survives.
## 7. Python rules
* `from __future__ import annotations`, full type hints, Google-style docstrings
on public functions.
* Starlette ≥1.10 raises **`WebSocketDisconnected`** (a `RuntimeError`) when the
app has already closed a socket, and `WebSocketDisconnect` when the peer does.
Catch both; read a socket you closed and you will crash the connection handler.
* Registry errors are `RegistryError(code, message, fatal)`; `fatal` means the
socket closes after the error frame is delivered. New error codes get a test.
* No bare `except:`; swallow only what you can name, and say why in a comment.
## 8. What to do when something behaves mysteriously
Reproduce at the lowest layer that can fail:
1. `curl -s localhost:8055/api/streams | python -m json.tool` — server truth.
2. `websocat ws://localhost:8055/ws` — speak the protocol by hand (see PLAN §3).
3. `uv run pytest tests/test_registry.py` — is the policy wrong, or the wiring?
4. Only then reach for a browser, and print `pageerror`/`console` from the first
line of the test.
## 9. Commits
* Conventional Commits (`feat:`, `fix:`, `test:`, `docs:`, `chore:`).
* Always `--no-gpg-sign`, always append the trailer `LLM-Generated: true`
(the `git-commit` skill does this).
* Never commit `.env`, keys, or `.agents/phase-sessions/`.
## 10. Quick reference
| I want to… | Do |
|---|---|
| Run it | `uv run mirror serve` → `:8055` |
| Share / watch | `/mirror` · `/watch` |
| Debug with an editor | `DEBUGPY=1 uv run mirror serve` (port 5678) |
| Server truth about mirrors | `GET /api/streams` |
| What the browser may know | `GET /api/config` |
| Everything fast, no browser | `uv run pytest -m "not e2e"` |
| Only the real-desktop test | `MIRROR_REALDISPLAY=1 uv run pytest -m realdisplay` |
