Found on alpha after deploying rc4, by comparing what a device advertised
against what it actually requested.
A real BrightSign XT245 has navigator.serviceWorker, passes an
`'serviceWorker' in navigator` check, and then never even fetches sw.js — its
widget runtime refuses the registration. It was declaring offline.cache to the
fleet while unable to cache a single byte, which is precisely the lie the
capability model exists to prevent. The claim is now made on a worker that is
actually IN CONTROL, and a refused registration sets a flag so the negative
sticks on a runtime where it will never succeed.
That failure previously went to console.warn, on a display nobody has a console
for, so a panel that could cache nothing looked identical to one that could. It
now reports app_error/sw_unavailable — as an allow-listed event type, since an
unknown one is dropped by the server and would have been just as invisible.
The cost is that the first load under-reports, before the worker claims the
page. That is the right direction to be wrong in, and it self-corrects: the next
register sends the true set.
Also corrects docs/player-parity.md, which claimed BrightSign simply inherits
the web player's service worker. The failing unit runs BSN's Supervisor rather
than our brightsign/autorun.brs, and Supervisor's widget has no storage_path —
the setting our own host script does configure and the precondition for a widget
having persistent storage. So this is likely a widget config issue rather than a
platform limit, but it is UNVERIFIED on hardware and the doc now says so.

Two halves of the same problem. A screen has to keep playing when the link is
gone, and it must not keep playing the wrong thing once the link is back.
CACHING FOR OFFLINE, on the players that could not:
- Tizen cached nothing but the playlist, so a panel came back from a reboot
knowing exactly what to show and fetched every frame of it from a server that
was not there. tizen/js/media-cache.js caches the media itself to wgt-private
(the store Tizen documents as surviving reboots), resumable via Range and
If-Range, with the transfer async so a stalled chunk cannot freeze the player.
offline.cache moves from "absent" to a runtime claim: a build with no writable
private storage still says nothing.
- The web player's worker stored only what a single fetch() happened to
complete, which on a marginal link is nothing at all — a 200MB asset never
finishes in one go and every retry starts from zero. It now accumulates in
resumable chunks, driven by the player's playlist rather than by playback, so
the prefetch is not competing with the video that is currently on screen for
the same scarce bandwidth. BrightSign inherits this.
STILL UPDATING, which caching quietly breaks:
PUT /api/content/:id/replace changes an asset's bytes under a stable id. Every
cache keys on that id, so before this the new bytes could not reach a panel that
already held the old ones — not until the next refresh, but never. Content now
carries a revision, stamped onto each item at send time like widget revs, and
every player keys its cache on it. The same send-time refresh fixes a second
bug: a replace writes a new randomly-named file and unlinks the old one, so the
filepath in a published snapshot pointed at a deleted file and web panels 404'd
on the item until somebody republished the playlist. The route now also pushes
to affected devices, which it never did.
Bytes are kept only where they can be built upon: no validator means no safe
resume, so the partial is discarded and the attempt backs off as the failure it
is rather than re-fetching the same prefix forever.
Server needed no new transfer support — res.sendFile already does Range,
If-Range and 416. The Tizen cache and the service worker are both driven in Node
against fakes, because neither can be exercised without hardware and "the chunks
assemble correctly" is not something to discover from a panel showing a corrupt
video.

The dashboard offered every control to every display, so a browser tab showed a
reboot button that could never work. server/lib/player-capabilities.js defines the
vocabulary; this makes the web player actually speak it.
The declaration is computed, not constant, because the same index.html is BOTH the
browser player and the BrightSign player. system.reboot / display.power /
display.resolution / system.self_update are claimed only when BS.hasHost() answers —
deliberately hasHost() and not isBrightSign(), since the UA check is also true for a
widget built without node integration, which can reach none of them. Screenshots,
offline cache, transitions and native sync are each probed the same way.
Capabilities were never persisted: the column and the handler did not exist, so a
declaration would have been sent and silently dropped. Added the migration and
applyCapabilities(). An ABSENT declaration leaves the column NULL so the baseline
still applies — several hundred fielded displays declare nothing and would otherwise
lose every control at once — while an EMPTY declaration is stored as '[]' and honoured.
docs/player-parity.md records every capability against all four players with a reason
for each "no", and flags three Tizen baseline errors found while verifying it.
Tests: 1109/1109. Both inline <script> blocks in index.html parse clean.
The published API reference (frontend/api-docs.html renders docs/openapi.yaml through Redoc) said
version 1.9.0 while 1.9.25 was shipping. bump-version.sh updates VERSION, server/package.json,
android versionName/versionCode and tizen/config.xml — the spec was simply never added to it, so it
had been frozen since the public API landed and integrators were reading a version identity that no
longer existed.
Spec changes:
- info.version -> 1.9.25.
- Device gains its two network addresses, which are easy to confuse and are now described so they
cannot be: ip_address is the PUBLIC/WAN address the server observed on connect (X-Forwarded-For
aware, normally shared by every device at a site), local_ip is the device's OWN LAN address as
reported by the player, which is the one that reaches a panel on site. local_ip is new; both were
returned by GET /devices and neither was documented.
- Device gains its flattened latest-telemetry block (wifi_ssid, wifi_rssi, battery, storage, ram,
cpu_usage, uptime_seconds) — all returned already, none documented, all nullable because a web
player does not report what Android does.
- wifi_ssid's "permission" value is called out as a sentinel, not a network name: Android 10+
withholds the SSID without a location permission ScreenTinker only requests if an operator opts
in. An integrator who does not know that renders "permission" to an end user as their Wi-Fi name.
Drift prevention, because a wrong version number is silent and nobody re-reads one they trust:
- bump-version.sh now writes the spec version too, anchored to info.version (operation- and
schema-level version keys are indented deeper and untouched; openapi: 3.1.0 is unaffected).
- Three contract tests: the spec version tracks package.json, the two addresses stay documented
and distinct, and the SSID sentinel stays explained.
No new endpoints — audited every public router's routes against the spec and all are documented.
830 server tests + the 5 contract tests green.

* feat(widgets): add directory-search widget
An interactive, walk-up search view of an existing directory-board. It
references a source board by id (no data copy), so a venue can run the
scrolling board on a main screen and a search view on a tablet, letting
people find an entry instantly.
Server (routes/widgets.js):
- register 'directory-search' + renderDirectorySearch(): resolves the source
board, inlines its categories as one \u003c-guarded JSON blob, renders all
text via textContent (XSS-safe), live case-insensitive filter over
identifier/name/subtitle (debounced), grouped results, available styling,
optional touch on-screen QWERTY keyboard that drives the same filter path.
- missing / non-directory-board source -> friendly full-page fallback, not a 500.
- live-sync while open is out of scope; left a // TODO for a poll hook.
Frontend editor (views/widgets.js): type + magnifier icon, source-board
dropdown (from loaded widgets, filtered to directory-board), title, logo
(reuses the board's picker), placeholder text, theme, on-screen-keyboard toggle;
getConfigFromForm case. i18n: widget.dirsearch.* + type keys in en/es/it/de/pt/fr.
docs: openapi widget_type enum. Tests: server/test/directory-search.test.js.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* feat(widgets): live-sync for directory-search (poll source board, no reload)
Reflect directory-board edits on an open directory-search page without a reload.
- New public GET /api/widgets/:id/data.json returns { categories } for a
directory-board (404 for missing/wrong-type so the page keeps last-good data
on a transient miss). CORS-open (ACAO:*) + no-store so a null-origin sandboxed
widget iframe can read it; exposes only data already public via /render.
Exempted from CSP + auth in server.js alongside /render.
- directory-search page inlines its source_widget_id and polls the board's
data.json every 30s via a relative URL (works behind a proxy/base path and
from a null-origin iframe). Only rebuilds + rerenders when the data actually
changed, so a mid-search view isn't disturbed; skips while document.hidden;
keeps last-good data on any fetch error. Flatten logic factored into
buildFlat() and reused by the poll.
Tests: data.json feed (categories, CORS header, 404s) + poll wiring in
directory-search.test.js (13/13). Verified live in a browser (page.clock
fast-forward): editing the board updates the search page with no reload.

* fix(android): let player WebViews take touch focus for interactive widgets
directory-search is served through the existing generic widget path
(loadUrl <server>/api/widgets/:id/render), so it already renders on Android
with JS + DOM storage + mixed-content enabled, same-origin (so its live-sync
fetch of the source board's data.json works), and no touch blocking.
Add isFocusable/isFocusableInTouchMode to the shared WebView config so the
search field reliably takes a tap/cursor inside the kiosk lock-task WebView.
Harmless for passive widgets (board/YouTube have no focusable inputs); the
widget's own on-screen keyboard still drives the filter when the system IME
is suppressed. Verified with :app:compileDebugKotlin.

* feat(seo): landing-page optimization pass (schema fixes, FAQ, content depth, CWV)
From a 3-way SEO audit (technical / structured-data / content). Highest-value fixes:
Structured data (penalty risk + rich results):
- REMOVE the fabricated aggregateRating (4.8/50) from SoftwareApplication — no visible reviews
on the page = a "spammy structured markup" risk. Replace loose Offers with a proper AggregateOffer
+ publisher + image/screenshot.
- Add a VISIBLE FAQ section (10 Q&As) so the FAQPage schema finally has on-page content (it shipped
4 Q&As with no visible counterpart — a mismatch); expand the FAQPage JSON-LD to mirror all 10.
- Add a WebSite entity block; add YouTube to Organization sameAs + a description.
- Fix the guides/compare BreadcrumbList position-2 target (dead /#features -> /).
Content / keywords / IA:
- Hero + Features subtitle rewritten to surface "digital signage software" / "digital signage CMS"
/ "self-host" / "free" above the fold.
- New "How It Works" (3-step) and "Use Cases / Industries" (8 verticals) sections for snippet +
long-tail intent. Platform tiles (Android TV / Fire TV / Raspberry Pi) now link to their guides.
- FAQ answers add keyword-rich internal links to the guides + compare pages.
Technical / Core Web Vitals:
- Lazy-load the YouTube iframe (loading=lazy + youtube-nocookie + explicit width/height) — the top
LCP/TBT win on mobile.
- Title 84->~60 chars (keyword-front), meta description ~178->~156 + CTA.
- <div> footer -> <footer> landmark; favicon sizes (192+512).
- sitemap.xml: add <lastmod> to all 10 URLs.
All JSON-LD validated (4 blocks parse; single H1; no fabricated data).

The billing:read scope + dual-path gate were built but there was no way to MINT a token
(and it must NOT go in the workspace-scoped, self-service API-Tokens UI). Adds a server-side,
owner-only CLI — no new UI, no network endpoint. Owner-only BY CONSTRUCTION: it's a
host-side script, so filesystem/shell access = the platform owner.
- server/lib/billing-token.js (testable): mintBillingToken/revokeBillingToken/
listBillingTokens. Reuses the EXACT existing token path — same secret (st_ + 32 bytes
base64url), same SHA-256 hashing (hashToken), same api_tokens columns — no second format.
Resolves the platform OWNER (oldest platform_admin/superadmin; #14 collapsed superadmin ->
platform_admin so that's the top tier) and binds to their workspace. api_tokens.user_id +
workspace_id are BOTH NOT NULL (no platform-level token exists); the workspace binding is
VESTIGIAL for billing (billing:read is off-ladder -> can't reach any workspace router;
billing is platform-global), documented in-file rather than loosening NOT NULL pre-release.
- scripts/mint-billing-token.js: thin CLI wrapper. --name mints and prints the secret ONCE
(+ id, + "run as owner on host" warning), --list, --revoke <id> (soft revoke, mirrors the
dashboard DELETE).
Tests (4, test/billing-token-mint.test.js): minted row is scope EXACTLY billing:read with a
matching SHA-256 hash and no read/write/full/agency scope; the token reads GET
/api/billing/usage (200) but is refused on /api/devices (403) and /api/admin (401) — scope
isolation; revocation -> 401; mint requires a name; revoke refuses a non-billing id. CLI
smoked live (mint/list/revoke). Suite 310/310.
SPEC-vs-REALITY (again): spec said bcrypt + JSON `scopes`; this codebase uses SHA-256 + a
single `scope` TEXT column. Built to the real system.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Least-privilege way to read GET /api/billing/usage without requiring platform admin.
Additive + isolated: reuses the existing api_tokens scope system (the off-ladder 'agency'
scope is the precedent) and does NOT touch the shared role/permission checks other
endpoints rely on.
- New off-ladder scope 'billing:read' (routes/tokens.js SCOPES). Like 'agency' it is NOT
on the read<write<full ladder, so tokenScopeGate rejects a billing token on every
PUBLIC_ROUTER and JWT-only routers reject any st_ token -> the scope grants billing-read
and NOTHING else.
- DUAL-PATH gate requireBillingRead (middleware/apiToken.js), written as an EXPLICIT OR:
authorize if (billing:read token) OR (platform-admin session). Admins keep read access
but are NOT required to; the token path doesn't lock out admins or vice versa. Billing
route now mounted with bearerAuth (token OR JWT front door) + requireBillingRead (was
requireAuth + requirePlatformAdmin).
- MINTING is platform-admin only (stricter than read/write/full/agency, which any
workspace member may mint) since a billing:read token grants GLOBAL billing-read. Note:
no finer "owner" tier exists here (#14 collapsed superadmin->platform_admin), so
PLATFORM_ROLES is the top level required.
Tests (5, test/billing-authz.test.js): dual-path positive (token AND admin session both
200) + negative (user 403 / anon 401); scope isolation (billing token 403 on /api/devices,
401 on /api/admin; read token 200 on devices but 403 on billing); minting owner-only
(user + ordinary-admin 403, platform-admin 201); revocation -> 401. Existing token
firewall/partition suite (api.test.js) + billing-endpoint tests unchanged & green. Reused
the exact SHA-256 token-verification path (no bcrypt/new mechanism). Suite 306/306.
NOTE: spec described bcrypt + JSON `scopes` + an analytics:read precedent; this codebase
actually uses SHA-256 + a single `scope` TEXT column + 'agency' as the off-ladder
precedent. Implemented faithfully to the real system.

Implements the ByteTinker-Bold distribution-agreement billing math and surfaces it on a
standalone admin-only route. No UI (the API figure is the deliverable). Server-side only.
Contract math (lib/billing.js, config-driven; defaults ARE the agreement):
- ASD (per device/day) = min(1.0, online_seconds / (hours*3600)) # 28800 default
- BillableScreens (per month) = round-half-up( Sum ASD / days_in_month )
- Flat tier (not marginal): 1-499 $1.50 / 500-999 $1.25 / 1000+ $1.00; cost = screens*rate.
Single global rate card for now (per-tenant is a future concern; noted in code).
Data foundation:
- New durable rollup device_usage_daily(device_id, day 'YYYY-MM-DD', online_seconds),
index on day. status_log (3d) / telemetry (24h) can't back a billing month.
- Accumulated INCREMENTALLY off the heartbeat tick from the live connection map (same
source as devices_connected) - never reconstructed from logs. Each tick credits every
connected device's today-row (min(86400, +elapsed)), chunked + transactional (non-blocking);
per-tick credit capped (accrualCapSeconds) as a stall/restart guard.
- Retention ~400d, pruned via chunked-prune (pruneUsageDaily in runMaintenance).
API: GET /api/billing/usage?month=YYYY-MM (default current), requirePlatformAdmin, mounted
SEPARATELY from /api/status (billing is revenue data + a heavier aggregate; must not touch
the hot status path). Reads the rollup only. MTD figure averages over COMPLETED days only
(today shown in `daily` but excluded until it completes); is_final + billable_screens_final
appear once the month completes.
Tests (12): ASD math; billable round-half-up; flat tier/cost boundaries; accumulator
(accrues by interval, caps at 86400/day, disconnected doesn't accrue); report MTD-excludes-
today + final-month is_final; retention prune; endpoint authz (admin 200 / non-admin 403 /
anon 401) + billing absent from /api/status. Suite 301/301. First-full-month caveat +
formula in docs/billing.md.

1. devices_connected (always on, never gated): a top-level /api/status field next to
loop_lag = LIVE WS socket count from the heartbeat connection map (getConnectedCount),
NOT devices.status='online' (which lags by the offline-timeout). The single
most-glanced operational number, so it can't disappear when debug is off. Also dropped
4 dead per-poll COUNT(*) queries the route computed but never returned.
2. debug block behind an admin flag: new minimal app_settings KV table (none existed;
ai_settings is per-workspace, white_labels is branding) + lib/app-settings.js (cached,
refresh-on-write so status polls read a cached boolean, not a DB row).
routes/status.js includes `debug` ONLY when status_debug_enabled is on (persisted value
overrides the STATUS_DEBUG_ENABLED env default); when off the key is omitted entirely.
3. Admin toggle: GET/PUT /api/admin/status-debug (requirePlatformAdmin, mirrors the
branding endpoints) + a checkbox in the Admin tab "Status endpoint" section
(mirrors the branding checkbox). Takes effect on the next poll, no restart.
Tests: devices_connected always present+numeric and rises with a live socket (booted +
socket.io-client); debug present by default, admin flips OFF -> key omitted (loop_lag +
devices_connected remain) -> ON again, no restart; non-admin 403, anon 401; unit coverage
for getConnectedCount + app-settings default/override. Suite 289/289.

The debug block exposed only gauges (buckets, quarantined, inFlight) — state, not work.
A real flapping Firestick reads as flap.buckets:36, quarantined:0, indistinguishable
from healthy. Add lightweight in-memory throughput counters (total + last-completed
rolling window) so the server tells the flapper/flood story itself.
- lib/rolling-counter.js: shared bounded scalar counter (total, curWindow, lastWindow,
windowStart); rolls lazily on bump AND read (no timer), idle decays to 0.
DEBUG_STATS_WINDOW_MS default 60000.
- flap-limiter: refused{Total,LastWindow} (every allow:false), quarantineStarts{Total,
LastWindow} (a quarantine event stays visible after the gauge decays).
- ota-breaker: stats() rateBackoff{Total,LastWindow}.
- ota-download-guard: servedTotal/shedTotal alongside the per-window values.
- database: maintenance sweepsTotal (confirm the prune is firing, not stalled).
- routes/status: debug block gains ota_breaker + the new fields (aggregate-only, cheap).
Tests: rolling-counter window-roll + idle decay; each counter increments on the right
event; booted /api/status asserts the new fields present + numeric. Suite 285/285.
Fallout doc: observability section lists the fields + what each tells a soak-watcher.

Updated the item-B section for the in-memory time-limited auto-quarantine (no DB block,
auto-clears) and the item-C section for band-aware downloads (serve freely when healthy,

Booting against a pre-bloated 300k-row device_status_log, /api/status answers in <3s
while the table is still large (chunked startup prune trickling in the background), and
the backlog drains to the cap with the server responsive throughout. The old whole-table
sort froze boot ~40s. Fallout doc gets the P2 findings section.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every new subsystem is disable-able via env (flip + restart, no redeploy/bisect):
- FLAP_LIMITER_ENABLED=false -> flap limiter always allows.
- OTA_DOWNLOAD_GUARD_ENABLED=false -> download guard always admits.
- MAINTENANCE_BAND_GATE_ENABLED=false -> interval maintenance ignores band.
- CONNECT_RATE_QUARANTINE_TRIPS=0 -> quarantine off (already; confirmed).
Startup prune is never band-gated regardless. Kill switches table added to the fallout
doc. Tests assert each OFF behaviour.

Deliverables 3 & 4: per-item blast radius + soak signals, and the before/after
worst-case synchronous blocking for every hot path touched (prune, sweeps, OTA,
register, telemetry). Ends with the A<->B interlock note (ship together).

Phase 0 deliverable for the beta7 (alpha-only) hardening pass. Enumerates every
synchronous unbounded op (maintenance sweeps, register hot path, content-ack, OTA
endpoints, loop-lag telemetry, log volume, un-evicted per-device Maps), classifies
each exposed/mitigated with worst-case blocking, confirms the two-mechanism spiral
(whole-table prune freeze <-> restart-loop throttle wipe), and sequences items A-E.

Two device-REPORTING fixes from the #134 investigation (the PiP rendering itself
was #135).
1) "Device reconnects every ~45s" was a logging artifact, not instability. The
player re-emits a full device:register on the SAME socket every ~45-60s
(requestPlaylistRefresh) to pull a fresh playlist; the server logged
"Device reconnected" for every register of a known device. The attached 4-day
log showed 1415 "reconnected" vs 30 real socket connects and 0 heartbeat
timeouts — the socket never dropped, so #134's "PiP lost between reconnects"
was a misdiagnosis. Fix: only log a genuine reconnect (new socket); a
same-socket re-register is a refresh (currentDeviceId === device_id) and stays
quiet. The playlist still refreshes.
2) Device reported 720p while the monitor showed a 1080 signal. DeviceInfo
reported getRealMetrics() — the UI RENDER SURFACE — but TV boxes render the UI
at 720p and upscale to a 1080p HDMI signal. Now report BOTH: screen_width/height
= the output mode (Display.Mode.physicalWidth/Height), render_width/height =
the render surface (getRealMetrics). Two new nullable devices columns, stored on
pairing INSERT + reconnect UPDATE, exposed via the device API, shown on the
dashboard as "1920x1080 (UI 1280x720)" when they differ.
Backward compatible (required + verified on emulator): a device that omits
render_* — or sends no device_info at all — still registers, with render_* = null,
on both the INSERT and UPDATE paths. New columns nullable; stores use
`?? null` / `|| null`. All 167 server tests pass.

* fix(#109): render Android PiP overlay above the YouTube WebView video plane
The PiP overlay (#109) returned sent:1 and showed its title in `uiautomator
dump`, but nothing painted on screen while YouTube was playing. By elimination
(YouTube-specific, landscape so no off-screen transform, real on-screen bounds
in the dump) the cause is surface occlusion: pipLayout sat as the last child of
rootLayout — the SAME compositing band as R.id.youtubeWebView — so the playing
video surface drew over it.
Fix (task option 1a): reparent pipLayout out of rootLayout to the window
content (android.R.id.content) as a top-level sibling drawn after rootLayout, so
it composites above the WebView. MainActivity.mirrorTransformToPip() copies
rootView's orientation/wall transform onto it so corner positions still track
the rotated content (web/Tizen parity). show() also bringToFront()+
requestLayout()+invalidate() on attach (covers the cause-3 measure/visibility
path). Remote-view screenshots now capture the content root so the PiP is still
included.
Instrumentation (Phase 1, default OFF): PipOverlay.pipDebug paints a solid
magenta box + border with media on top (box paints even if media never loads)
and logs box/pipLayout/rootView/youtubeWebView geometry over device:log tag
"pip"; loadImageInto also logs on success. Toggled via device:command
{type:"pip_debug"} (routed through MainActivity.onCommand).
Server: POST /api/pip and the clear handler log one concise [pip] dispatch line
(target + sent/offline) so journalctl shows PiP activity.
Validated end-to-end on an emulator (pixel10/API34) paired to an isolated local
server with YouTube playing: no crash, the PiP box composites above the live
video frame (center + top-right), clear removes it, and the portrait transform
mirror rotates the overlay with the stage (no off-screen). The Fire TV
hardware-overlay punch-through still needs real hardware (emulator composites
video inline); pipDebug + docs/109-android-pip-visibility.md cover that.

* fix(#109): image PiPs never painted — set slot token before decode
Emulator e2e of an image PiP (a QR PNG) found the image area always blank (box
background + title only). Pre-existing defect, also on main, independent of the
occlusion reparent.
Root cause in PipOverlay.show(): teardown() clears `current` to null, then
loadImageInto() captured `token = current` (null) as its drop-if-replaced guard,
but `current` was set to the new pip_id AFTER the media was built. The image
decode finishes on a background thread and posts back after show() returns, so
`token != current` (null != pip_id) was always true and every decoded bitmap was
dropped. Web PiPs and the box/title were unaffected, which masked it.
Fix: set `current = pip_id` before building media so loadImageInto's token
matches. Verified on emulator — a QR image PiP now renders over both a static
image and live YouTube (hardware screencap + the app's software view.draw
capture both show it).

* docs(#109): record web PiP (HTML+JS) verification on emulator
Web PiP type loads its WebView and executes JS (a page stamping JS OK · <time>
rendered over live YouTube). No code change — web PiPs don't use the image path
that had the token bug. Completes the image/web/box content-type verification.

* feat(#109): implement PiP close_button on Android (was a documented no-op)
The server forwarded close_button (routes/pip.js) and it's in openapi.yaml, but
no player rendered it — Tizen deferred "close-button focus" as non-MVP, the web
player has none, and Android's PipOverlay never read the flag. So the documented
field did nothing on any device.
Implement it on Android: when close_button:true, a tappable ✕ floats at the box's
top-right in a FrameLayout wrapper that is a SIBLING of the box — so it isn't
clipped by the box outline or dimmed by the overlay opacity. Tapping it clears
THIS overlay (id-matched via the captured token). Only the ✕ is clickable; the
rest of the full-screen pipLayout stays touch-transparent, so taps elsewhere
fall through to the playing content (no input regression).
Verified on the emulator over live YouTube: the ✕ renders at the corner, and
tapping it removes the overlay while the video keeps playing.
Parity note: web/Tizen players still don't implement close_button; D-pad focus
of the ✕ on non-touch TV hardware is intentionally not wired (MVP = touch/pointer,
matching the Tizen focus deferral).

The PiP endpoints and the per-item mute field shipped without OpenAPI coverage.
- openapi.yaml: add POST /pip (show), DELETE /pip + POST /pip/clear (clear), all
x-required-scope: full; add the `muted` boolean to PUT /assignments/{id}; add a `pip` tag.
- openapi-contract.test.js: the scope heuristic only treated `command` paths as full-scope,
so a full-scope non-command route (/pip) would fail it — extend it to recognize /pip.
Docs-only as far as the running build goes (no route/behavior change). Lands on main; not
in the frozen v1.9.1-beta4 tag — ships in the next tag.

Replaces the broken/fragmented preview with a single surface that renders a
DRAFT playlist exactly as a device does, by reusing the player's renderer in a
same-origin iframe. Fixes "not all items load" (one renderer, full type union)
and inherits the player's YouTube correctness (YT.Player handshake).
Server:
- deviceSocket: extract assemblePayload() (zone-reset + canonical shape) from
buildPlaylistPayload so the device path and preview can't drift. Pure refactor
(all 149 tests green).
- playlists: GET /:id/preview-payload (requirePlaylistRead, workspace-scoped).
Draft-aware via buildSnapshotItems (live items, not published_snapshot);
derivePreviewLayout() resolves layout from the playlist's own zone-bound items
(0 zoned -> fullscreen; 1 -> use it; >1 -> dominant + ambiguous flag, never
crashes). orientation validated/passthrough; wall_config/timezone null.
Player (renderer UNTOUCHED):
- ?preview=1&playlist=ID boot branch: fetch preview-payload (same-origin Bearer
token) and call handlePlaylistUpdate(). Gated before the pairing/socket path
so the unpaired auto-connect never fires. All socket emits already guarded.
- Webpage widgets: always-visible honest note (no auto-detection — an XFO
refusal is provably indistinguishable client-side from a working embed).
Dashboard:
- playlists: Preview button + player-iframe modal with landscape/portrait toggle.
- widgets: same honest note on the existing widget preview modal (the surface the
bug was reported on).
- i18n x6 (en/es/fr/de/it/pt) + player i18n x5.
Validated end-to-end (headless Chrome + CDP): preview boots, webpage note
renders, 3-zone layout derives+renders, shape parity with device snapshot proven
on real data, auth gate returns 401. The world-readable /uploads finding is
tracked separately as #107 (not a #104 concern — same path the device uses).

Self-review follow-ups, kept as a separate commit so the review trail is honest.
- Spec drift: POST /widgets/preview was documented scope 'read' but the method-based
tokenScopeGate enforces 'write' for any POST, so a read-token integrator following the
published docs would hit a surprise 403. The code is right; fix the SPEC to match it.
- Guard it forever: test/openapi-contract.test.js cross-checks every spec operation's
x-required-scope against the enforcement rule, and that every documented path is a
public (token-reachable) router - both derived from the same config/api-surface.js.
Adds js-yaml (devDep) to parse the spec. Spec/enforcement drift now fails CI.
- Vendored Redoc: add frontend/vendor/README.md (library, version 2.3.9, source, update
steps) and drop the dangling //# sourceMappingURL line so /docs doesn't 404 in devtools.
Remaining (non-security) test-coverage gaps tracked in #92.

- docs/openapi.yaml: the public, token-reachable surface only, with the auth model
(Bearer st_) and a per-operation x-required-scope (read<write<full). JWT-only routers
are excluded by design.
- Serve /openapi.yaml + /docs (Redoc via a vendored standalone bundle, no CDN so it
works air-gapped; /docs is CSP-exempt). docs/ is bundled into the release tarball.
- CI: redocly lint + a public-only guard that fails loudly if a JWT-only path ever leaks
into the spec.

How to run the AI design feature fully local + free: Ollama (OpenAI-compatible
LLM) for text/layout and stable-diffusion.cpp (Vulkan) for images, plus the
SELF_HOSTED requirement for localhost endpoints, an OpenAI fallback, and GPU
troubleshooting (incl. the Blackwell CUDA-fails/Vulkan-works note). Linked from
the README integrations section.
Covers the "Connecting to server" / xhr-poll-error hang (stale server URL,
fixed via Clear data + re-provision), and adb-over-Wi-Fi setup including the
gotchas: must be on the same subnet, and never `adb root` over a wireless
connection (it wedges adbd until reboot). Linked from the README Device Setup
section.
