ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 7b90759252 fix: /errors stack traces, Wi-Fi disconnect and save, plugin fonts, API cache TTL (#636)
* fix(errors): record the exception's own stack trace

record_error() called traceback.format_exc(), which only sees an
exception while its except block is running. plugin_executor records
exceptions caught on a worker thread after that block has ended, so
every trace on /errors read "NoneType: None". The trace is now built
from the exception's __traceback__. The executor's log call had the
same problem with exc_info=True and now passes the exception.

record_error() also merged LEDMatrixError context into the caller's
dict in place; it now works on a copy.

* docs(wifi): point at configure_wifi_permissions.sh instead of a sudoers list

The module docstring told users to grant NOPASSWD sudo on iptables and
ip. configure_wifi_permissions.sh refuses those grants on purpose: a
wildcard rule for either runs an arbitrary program as root. Point at
the script and say why it leaves them out.

* fix(wifi): disconnect finds the saved profile by SSID

disconnect_from_network() asked `nmcli -f NAME,802-11-wireless.ssid
connection show` for the profile to take down, but nmcli rejects that
column for `connection show`, so the lookup always failed and only the
device was disconnected. The per-profile lookup _connect_nmcli() already
used is now _find_profile_for_ssid(), and both callers share it. It
also splits terse output on the last colon and unescapes "\:", so a
profile name containing a colon is found.

* fix(wifi): write wifi_config.json atomically and report a failed save

_save_config() opened the file for writing in place and swallowed any
error, so a wifi_config.json left owned by root made the web toggle for
auto-enabling AP mode report success while nothing was saved, and a
crash mid-write could truncate the file. It now uses atomic_write_json,
which also keeps the file's owner and shared group when root saves it,
and returns False on failure. POST /wifi/ap/auto-enable answers 500 in
that case.

The file is now written with indent=4, like the other config files.

* fix(fonts): resolve plugin:// fonts in the plugin's own directory

FontManager looked for a plugin's bundled fonts under Path("plugins") /
plugin_id: relative to the process cwd, and not the default install
directory (plugin-repos/), so a manifest's plugin:// fonts never loaded.

register_plugin_fonts() takes an optional plugin_dir, and PluginManager
passes the directory it loaded the plugin from. Callers that omit it get
a lookup in the configured plugin_system.plugins_directory, then plugins/,
resolved against the install root.

* fix(api-helper): cache responses for the requested cache_ttl

APIHelper.get(cache_ttl=...) and set_cache(ttl=...) dropped the ttl on
the claim that CacheManager does not support one, but CacheManager.set()
takes a ttl, stores it with the entry, and both cache tiers honour it
over a reader's max_age. Without it every response expired after the
300-second default read age, whatever the plugin asked for. The ttl is
now passed through, and the cache read passes cache_ttl as max_age for
entries written without one. The class docstring describes what the
helper actually does.

* fix(style): one scale range for the schema, element_scale and LogoHelper

The generated Scale field allowed 0.1 to 10, element_style's reader
capped at 10 with no floor, and LogoHelper accepted 0.05 to 8 and reset
anything else to 1.0. A logo scale of 9, which the form accepts, drew at
the shipped size.

MIN_ELEMENT_SCALE / MAX_ELEMENT_SCALE (0.1, 10.0) in src.element_style
are now the schema bounds and the clamp every reader applies through
coerce_scale(): a positive number outside the range is clamped, and
anything that is not a finite positive number means the default. That
also stops element_scale() passing NaN through, since min(nan, 10.0)
is nan.

* fix(logos): placeholder lands at the requested path; empty logos list

download_missing_logo() wrote its fallback placeholder to
<normalize_abbreviation(abbr)>.png in the logo directory rather than to
the logo_path the caller passed, so it could return True while nothing
existed where the plugin looks (e.g. "TA&M.png" vs "TAANDM.png").
create_placeholder_logo() takes an optional filepath, and
download_missing_logo passes the requested one.

download_missing_logo_for_team() only caught KeyError, so a team whose
"logos" list is empty raised IndexError; it now treats KeyError,
IndexError and TypeError as "no logo URL".

The placeholder is drawn with PLACEHOLDER_SIZE / PLACEHOLDER_BG, the
constants is_placeholder_logo() recognises it by, instead of repeated
literals.

* fix(fonts): resolve bundled font paths against the install root

TextHelper's default font_dir, the logo placeholder's font and
FontManager's font_overrides.json were all relative to the process cwd,
so a process started anywhere but the install root (the plugin safety
harness, a manual run, a unit without WorkingDirectory) drew with PIL's
default face and read no overrides. They now go through
font_layout.resolve_asset_path; the overrides file sits in the install
root's config/.

The resolver docstrings described an order the code does not follow:
resolve_asset_path never consults the cwd, and sports_shared's
_resolve_font_path tries the cwd first. Both docstrings now say what
the code does, and _resolve_font_path calls resolve_asset_path instead
of probing FontManager for it.

* fix(sync): the web UI reads the sync status file the display writes

sync_manager writes its status to tempfile.gettempdir(), but
GET /api/v3/sync/status read a hardcoded /tmp/led_matrix_sync_status.json
and defaulted the port to a literal 5765. Wherever TMPDIR is set (or on
any non-/tmp host) the page only ever showed "starting". The endpoint now
uses sync_manager.STATUS_FILE and SYNC_PORT.

* fix(http): the rankings resolver sends the project's User-Agent

DynamicTeamResolver fetched ESPN rankings with a bare requests.get, so
it sent python-requests' default User-Agent, which ESPN rejects; the
AP_TOP_N favourites then resolved to nothing. It now sends
DEFAULT_HTTP_HEADERS. BaseOddsManager carried its own copy of the
User-Agent string and now uses the same shared headers (which also adds
Accept-Language).

* fix(backup): record the core release and read the configured plugin dir

The manifest's ledmatrix_version came from a VERSION file that does not
exist, then from .git/HEAD: a 12-character sha, or "ref: refs/he" when
the branch's ref was packed. It is now src.__version__.

list_installed_plugins() scanned a hardcoded plugin-repos/, so on an
install whose plugin_system.plugins_directory points elsewhere, plugins
missing from plugin_state.json were left out of the backup. It now reads
the configured directory from config/config.json, defaulting to
plugin-repos.

* fix(startup): report a missing display section once

A config without a display section produced three errors for the one
problem ("Missing required configuration key: display", "Display
configuration is missing or empty" and "Display configuration is
missing"), and an empty one produced two. _validate_config now reports
it once, as a missing key or an empty section, and
_validate_display_config leaves it to that.

The module docstring said the validator fails fast; nothing in the
display service calls raise_on_errors(), so it now says the errors are
reported and startup continues.

* refactor(wifi): share the copied blocks and name the AP constants

- _parse_nmcli_wifi_list() is the one parser behind _scan_nmcli and
  _scan_nmcli_cached.
- _verify_connected(), _wait_for_device_idle(), _failsafe_ap() and
  _mark_forced() replace blocks that were pasted two or three times in
  the connect and enable-AP paths. The device-idle wait now checks
  before its first one-second sleep instead of after it.
- _check_command() calls _find_command_path() instead of repeating it.
- AP_IP, PORTAL_PORT, AP_PROFILE_NAME and AP_PROFILE_NAMES name values
  that were spelled out 14, 12, 8 and 2 times; the two deletion loops
  now walk the same tuple. The iwconfig status path compares the AP
  address exactly: startswith() also skipped 192.168.4.10-19.
- Dropped a second WIFI.SIGNAL query that repeated the first, a no-op
  "if ssid: continue", the try/except around _connect_wpa_supplicant's
  constant return, and a second save of a scan scan_networks already
  saves.
- _ensure_wifi_radio_enabled's docstring says it returns True when the
  radio state cannot be read at all.

* refactor(config): drop dead branches and history comments in ConfigManager

- The module docstring pointed plugin authors at update_plugin_config(),
  which does not exist; it now names save_config_atomic() and
  save_raw_file_content().
- load_config's FileNotFoundError handler tested the message for
  "config_secrets.json", but a missing secrets file is handled where it
  is read, so only config.json reaches it; the check is gone.
- save_raw_file_content's `file_type == "main" or "secrets"` guard was
  always true (anything else raised earlier).
- get_raw_file_content('secrets') already returns {} for a missing file,
  so the os.path.exists() in front of two calls to it is gone.
- Comments that narrated earlier behaviour are rewritten as what the
  code does now.

* refactor(background-data): present-tense comments, drop unused API

- Comments that told the history of each fix (what "used to" happen,
  "the old per-delivery release") now state the invariant the code keeps.
- get_statistics() no longer reports a constant 'queue_size': 0, and the
  uncalled clear_completed_requests() is gone (_cleanup_completed_requests
  does that job on every completion). Neither is referenced in core, the
  web UI or the plugin monorepo.

shutdown_background_service() has no production caller either, but it
is the only way to tear down the get_background_service() singleton,
which the tests rely on, so it stays.

* refactor(odds): drop the unread cache_ttl and merge the odds_data branches

BaseOddsManager loaded base_odds_manager.cache_ttl from config and never
used it: cached odds live for the update interval (get_odds' ttl=interval).
No core or monorepo code reads the attribute, so it is gone along with
its log line. The two consecutive `if odds_data:` blocks are one.

* refactor(backup): one table for the single-file sections

config, secrets, wifi and ytm_auth were each spelled out in create,
preview, validate and restore. _SINGLE_FILE_SECTIONS lists them once,
with the RestoreOptions flag that restores each, and all four walk it.
Restore error messages keep their wording ("Failed to restore
<file name>").

* refactor(fonts): drop FontManager's write-only state and duplicate logs

- fonts_config, font_metadata and font_dependencies were written and
  never read; the performance_stats keys font_load_times, render_times,
  total_renders and the per-call "resolve" timings
  (_record_performance_metric) likewise. get_performance_stats() reads
  only the counters that remain. Nothing in core or the plugin monorepo
  references any of them.
- A failed BDF load was logged twice, by _load_bdf_font and again by
  get_font; get_font's line is the one kept.
- Removed "NEW:" and commented-out cozette entries, the "Copy font to
  assets/fonts" comment on code that copies nothing, and local imports
  of names the module already imports. The deprecated add_font() now
  resolves assets/fonts against the install root.

The @deprecated methods stay.

* refactor(text-helper): cache loaded fonts; drop the pre-textlength fallback

TextHelper declared _font_cache, cleared it and reported its size, but
never stored anything in it. load_fonts() now keeps each (file, size)
it loads there, so clear_font_cache() and get_font_cache_stats() mean
what they say and repeated load_fonts() calls reuse the fonts.

get_text_width() no longer catches AttributeError for Pillow releases
without ImageDraw.textlength; requirements.txt pins Pillow>=12.2.
The class docstring describes what the helper does.

* docs(common): fix wrong docstrings in api_helper, permission_utils, snapshot_policy

- permission_utils called 0o2775 "sticky bit"; the 2 is setgid, which is
  what makes new files take the directory's group.
- snapshot_policy pointed at web_interface/blueprints/api_v3.py, which
  is a package now; the health check is in api_v3/misc.py.
- APIHelper.clear_cache() lost a history note and a fallback to a
  clear() method that neither CacheManager nor the testing
  MockCacheManager has. The session headers are built from
  DEFAULT_HTTP_HEADERS instead of a copy of them, and the module
  docstring says what the module offers.

* docs(sports): present-tense comments in the shared scoreboard renderers

- sports_scroll and sports_game_renderer comments that referred to "this
  PR", "the old flat 128px card" or what the renderer "previously" did
  now describe the current behaviour and its reason.
- The block explaining why non-finite settings are rejected sat above
  _score_reserve_width; it describes _center_gap_width and now lives in
  it.
- unshare_element_fonts wrapped its import of font_layout.load_truetype
  in an `except ImportError` that cannot fire inside core; the import
  stays at call time so tests can spy on the pinned loader.
- sports_card docstrings that told the history of a fix say what the
  code does.

* refactor(sports-shared): drop dead code, name the ESPN limit

- _get_weeks_data asked for limit=1000, which fetch_espn_scoreboard
  clamps to ESPN_MAX_LIMIT anyway; it now names that constant. Its
  unused `immediate_events = []` is gone.
- _get_season_schedule_dates() returned ("", "") and has no caller in
  core or the plugin monorepo.
- _should_log keeps its warning_type parameter (part of the inherited
  signature, though nothing in core or the monorepo calls it) and its
  docstring says the cooldown is shared across types.
- An unused ImageFont import is gone.

* refactor(sync): one follower-mode switch, shared panel defaults

- The class docstring said the leader sends PNG frames. Frames go over
  UDP as raw RGB; PNG is only the Vegas scroll image sent over TCP. It
  now describes both paths.
- _enter_follower_mode() replaces the two copies of "note the leader,
  switch from standalone to follower, log, write status" in the frame
  and scroll-position handlers.
- The rows/cols fallbacks use DEFAULT_ROWS / DEFAULT_COLS from
  src.display_geometry, as chain_length already did.

* refactor(style): drop _layout_axis, name the layout group title

- ElementStyleResolver._layout_axis() had no caller in core or the
  plugin monorepo.
- _element_block_from_spec checked spec['size'] was a dict again after
  size_spec already had; it reads size_spec.
- The "Layout Offsets" title written into three generated schema blocks
  is _LAYOUT_TITLE.

* docs(logo-helper): say what the placeholder draws; name the 1.5 box factor

- _create_placeholder_logo's docstring said it draws the team
  abbreviation; it draws an outlined grey box and nothing else. The
  docstring says so, and the "in a real implementation you'd want text"
  comments are gone.
- The 1.5 x panel default logo box, written out six times, is
  DEFAULT_LOGO_BOX_FACTOR.
- ImageDraw is imported with Image at the top of the module.

* refactor(logos): drop dead code and a duplicate regex in logo_downloader

- _SAFE_LEAGUE_CODE_RE was the same pattern as _SAFE_LEAGUE_RE; both
  checks use the one.
- get_logo_filename_variations reassigned the TA&M case to the list it
  already had; the function returns the two names directly.
- _get_team_name_variations() had no caller in core or the plugin
  monorepo.
- fetch_single_team's docstring was copied from fetch_teams_data; a log
  message read "for{team_id}".

* refactor: drop the Pillow<9.1 resample shim and a catch-and-reraise

- adaptive_images fell back to Image.LANCZOS/NEAREST for Pillow < 9.1;
  requirements.txt pins Pillow>=12.2. RESAMPLE_LANCZOS and
  RESAMPLE_NEAREST keep their names (src.common re-exports them).
- CacheManager.save_cache caught CacheError only to re-raise it; the
  disk write is now called directly, with the same result.

* test(api-helper): stop the real CacheManager's cleanup thread

The cache-lifetime tests built a CacheManager and left its cleanup
thread's class-wide claim on the directory in place, which broke
test_cache_cleanup_thread_ownership when it ran later in the session.
The fixture now stops the thread on teardown.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 b11bcfa204 fix(plugins): store and plugin-manager bugs; tidy src/plugin_system (#635)
* fix(store): don't read a ZIP-installed plugin's remote from the LEDMatrix repo

update_plugin looked up remote.origin.url with `git -C <plugin> config
--local` for plugins that are not git checkouts. Under plugin-repos/ git
walks up to the enclosing LEDMatrix repository, so the lookup returned
LEDMatrix's own URL and a plugin missing from the registry was
"reinstalled" from the LEDMatrix repo. Only ask git when the plugin
directory has its own .git, the test _get_local_git_info already uses.

* fix(schema): report each missing required field once, by name

validate_config_against_schema ran its own required-fields loop after
Draft7Validator.iter_errors, which already yields one `required` error
per missing field, so every missing top-level field was listed twice.
The validator's copy also printed the schema's whole `required` list
("Missing required property '['api_key', 'city']'") instead of the field.
Drop the loop and take the field name from the error itself.

* fix(store): stop mangling repository URLs that contain ".git"

install_from_url and fetch_registry_from_url cleaned URLs with
`rstrip('/').replace('.git', '')`, which removes ".git" anywhere:
https://github.com/user/my.github.io became .../myhub.io, so installing
or browsing that repository asked GitHub for one that does not exist.

Add src/plugin_system/repo_urls.py with one anchored normalize_repo_url(),
same_repo() for comparisons, github_owner_repo() and github_api_headers(),
and use them for the five copies of the owner/repo parsing and GitHub
headers in the store and for saved repositories. GitHub URLs are now
recognised by urlparse().hostname everywhere: _get_latest_commit_info
used a substring test, and _install_from_monorepo_api parsed any host.

* fix(store): install a repository whose only branch is not main/master

_install_via_git returned None both when every clone failed and when the
last-resort clone of the repository's default branch succeeded.
_install_plugin_impl papered over it with `and not plugin_path.exists()`;
install_from_url did not, so a repository whose only branch is e.g.
`develop` was cloned, then treated as a failure, then "downloaded" from
main/master archives that do not exist.

After a default-branch clone, return the branch the clone checked out
(read from .git/HEAD), so None means failure and nothing else, and give
both callers the same `branch_used is None` fallback.

* fix(plugins): judge the memory limit on each call's own growth

monitor_call stores `metrics.memory_mb = max(previous, growth)`, and
_check_limits compared that high-water mark with max_memory_mb. It never
decreases, so once one update() grew the process past the limit every
later call raised ResourceLimitExceeded and the circuit breaker kept
reopening. Pass the call's own RSS growth to _check_limits; keep the
high-water mark for reporting and document what it measures.

Remove ResourceMetrics.update_average_execution_time: nothing called it,
and it overwrote the running total with the average.

* fix(plugins): reload_plugin re-reads the manifest from the discovered directory

reload_plugin read `plugins_dir / plugin_id / "manifest.json"`, ignoring
the discovery map and the plugin_dirs rules. For a plugin whose
directory name differs from its manifest id the path did not exist, the
re-read was skipped without a word, and the reload kept the stale
manifest. Resolve the directory with find_plugin_directory, as
load_plugin does.

* fix(plugins): drop the always-null last_display from plugin state info

PluginStateManager reported `last_display` from `_last_display`, which
nothing ever wrote, so it was null for every plugin. Recording it in
PluginExecutor.execute_display would not help: get_state_info's only
reader is the web process, whose PluginManager never calls display().
Remove the field, its dict and get_last_display() (no caller in core,
the web UI or the plugin monorepo).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(store): share the rollback and requirements helpers, drop dead code

- install_plugin and _reinstall_with_rollback set aside, discard and
  restore the old copy through _set_aside/_discard_backup/_restore_backup
  instead of two copies of the same blocks.
- The loader and the store run the same pre-pip checks through
  contained_plugin_dir() and requirements_to_install() in plugin_loader.
  They still invoke pip differently (sys.executable -m pip vs. the sudo
  wrapper). `except (BrokenPipeError, OSError)` + `isinstance(e, OSError)`
  becomes `except OSError` checking errno.EPIPE.
- load_module never returns None, so load_plugin's check is gone and the
  docstring says what it raises.
- Remove the always-true JSONSCHEMA_AVAILABLE, the inline re-imports of
  re and permission_utils, the fake status_result object nobody reads,
  hasattr(git_error, 'cmd'), a redundant "merge conflict" test and
  `import traceback` (exc_info=True does it).
- Correct comments: install_from_url names the directory for the
  caller's id when given (not always the manifest id), _get_local_git_info
  saves one git subprocess (not four), _enrich calls two helpers,
  search_plugins documents all its arguments, _find_plugin_path states
  its behaviour instead of a TODO, and history narration is gone.

* refactor(plugins): tidy base_plugin, correct plugin_manager/state comments

- base_plugin: drop the unused `import logging`; get_display_duration
  runs the instance value and the config value through one
  _positive_seconds() helper instead of two copies of the coercion; the
  'static'/'none'/fallback branches of get_vegas_display_mode, which all
  returned FIXED_SEGMENT, are one; fix the mis-indented validate_config
  example; say that get_supported_vegas_modes/get_vegas_segment_width
  are not consulted by core (kept, plugins override them).
- schema_manager: import expand_style_elements normally rather than
  swallowing an ImportError of a core module.
- plugin_manager: the plugins directory is the configured one
  (plugin-repos/ by default), not plugins/; get_config() returns the live
  dict, not a copy, so the interval cache comments say what it saves.
- state_manager: config_version and the file version are not used to
  detect corruption; say what they are.

* refactor(plugins): stop writing data/plugin_operations.json

PluginOperationQueue wrote its finished-operation history to
data/plugin_operations.json after every operation, and read it back only
into its own in-memory list, which only get_operation_history() exposes
-- and nothing calls that. The operation-history endpoint reads
OperationHistory (data/operation_history.json). No code in src/,
web_interface/, scripts/ or test/ reads the file.

Drop the history_file/lazy_load parameters and the load/save code; the
bounded in-memory history stays. web_interface/app.py and the
integration test stop passing the removed arguments. An existing
data/plugin_operations.json is left in place (data/* is gitignored).

- CONFIG_DEBUGGING: LEDMATRIX_DEBUG must be "true"; logs are in journald.

  plugin, plugin settings, brightness and Vegas settings apply without a
  restart; matrix hardware settings still need one.
- TROUBLESHOOTING: install dependencies with sudo so the root service
  sees them; point permission problems at PERMISSIONS.md instead of a
  project-wide chown.
- ADVANCED_FEATURES: real BackgroundDataService stats keys; Vegas hooks
  return VegasDisplayMode and None falls back to capture; cache files
  are 0660; fix_web_permissions.sh runs as the web user and does not
  touch sudoers.
- STARLARK_APPS_GUIDE: only the linux-arm64 pixlet binary is downloaded.
- HOW_TO_RUN_TESTS: test class examples that exist.

* docs: mark deprecated plugin APIs and state manifest fields once

Methods @deprecated("3.7.0") (the set pinned in test_deprecation.py)
were shown as current API in the quick reference, API reference,
advanced guide, development guide and FONT_MANAGER. Each is now marked
deprecated with its replacement. FONT_MANAGER is rewritten around the
current API; the override editor is gone and override methods are
deprecated.

Required manifest fields were stated three different ways. The API
reference now has one section: the 7 schema-required fields, the 4 the
store refuses without, class_name for the loader, and the 8 to set.
The other guides link to it.

* docs: document every src/common module and every widget

- src/common/README.md covered 7 of 17 modules. It now has a table of
  all of them (purpose, whether plugins import it, release to floor
  on), a short entry each, and logging advice that matches the code.
- SPORTS_UNIFICATION listed two shared modules and called
  sports_helpers the first; it now lists all six.
- The widgets README lists all 28 registered widgets plus the support
  files, and absorbs the parts that only docs/widget-guide.md had
  (x-options.labels, x-advanced, x-display hidden, plugin-file-manager).
  docs/widget-guide.md is now a pointer to it.

* fix(security): fix_web_permissions.sh re-hardens the root sudo helpers

The script chowns the whole project to the web user. That included
scripts/fix_perms/safe_plugin_rm.sh and safe_pip_install.sh -- the two
helpers /etc/sudoers.d/ledmatrix_web lets the web user run as root -- so
running it turned both into a root shell for whoever can edit them. It
also re-grouped config_secrets.json away from ledmatrix.

After the chown it now does what first_time_install.sh's Steps 11 and
11.1 do: helpers back to root:root 755, and config_secrets.json back to
the web unit's User=:ledmatrix 640. Each step is non-fatal and prints the
manual command if it fails.

Also fixes what the script and its docs claimed: it never configured
sudoers, its closing hint pointed at ./configure_web_sudo.sh (wrong
path), and the README and ADVANCED_FEATURES.md said to run it with sudo,
which it refuses.

* fix(security): validate and harden every sudoers drop-in the scripts write

configure_wifi_permissions.sh copied its rules into
/etc/sudoers.d/ledmatrix_wifi without `visudo -c`. A malformed drop-in
makes sudo refuse every command for every user, which on a headless Pi
leaves no way back in. It now checks first and leaves the installed file
alone when the rules do not parse, as the other two writers do. (It
already used mktemp, so that part of the review did not apply.)

It also grants the two literal commands wifi_manager.py runs for
NetworkManager's shared-mode dnsmasq drop-in -- `cp
/tmp/ledmatrix-nm-dnsmasq.conf .../dnsmasq-shared.d/ledmatrix-captive.conf`
and `rm -f` of that file. The directory's mkdir was granted, the file was
not. Both are pinned in test_sudo_allowlist_covers_calls.py.

configure_web_sudo.sh wrote its rules to /tmp/ledmatrix_web_sudoers_$$,
a predictable name in a world-writable directory; it now uses mktemp with
an EXIT trap, as first_time_install.sh does. It sets mode 440 on the
installed file instead of leaving the temp file's mode, and finds visudo
in /usr/sbin when that is not on the user's PATH, which skipped the
check silently.

* fix(install): escape the project path in the DNS-fix and MQTT unit renderers

install_dns_fix.sh and install_mqtt_bridge.sh substituted
__PROJECT_ROOT_DIR__ with the raw path, while the other three renderers
go through sed_escape_replacement from lib_systemd_render.sh. A checkout
under a path containing `&`, `\` or `|` rendered a corrupted unit from
these two only. Both now source the helper and use it, and a test checks
that every placeholder substitution in scripts/install uses an escaped
value.

* fix(install): stop the installer scripts reporting things that are not true

- first_time_install.sh printed "Password: ledmatrix123" for the setup
  access point. wifi_manager creates it as an open network ("No
  password" on the panel), so it now says so.
- Step 10.1 printed "✓ WiFi management permissions configured" straight
  after its own failure message; install_wifi_monitor.sh printed
  "✓ Package installation completed" after a failed apt install. The
  tick now only follows success.
- Step 7 printed "Web dependencies already installed ... in Step 5" in
  the one branch that runs because Step 5 did not install them, then
  created .web_deps_installed on that basis. It now warns and leaves the
  marker off so the next run retries, as the comment below it intends.
- check_system_compatibility.sh called Debian 12 Bookworm "full
  compatibility confirmed" while first_time_install.sh refuses anything
  but Debian 13. Bookworm, older Debian and non-Debian systems are now
  errors. Its counters used ((X++)), which under `set -e` exits the
  script at the first warning or error (the expression is 0), so the
  check never reached its summary on any system with one.
- configure_web_sudo.sh and configure_wifi_permissions.sh finished by
  testing `sudo -n test -f ...` and `sudo -n nmcli device status`,
  neither of which is granted, so they always reported a failure. They
  now ask `sudo -n -l` about commands the new rules do grant, which
  checks the rule without running anything.

* fix(install): print the completion summary before rebooting

With -y -- and so for every one-shot `curl | bash` install, which always
passes -y -- first_time_install.sh ran `reboot` about 180 lines before
its "Installation Complete / Web UI Access" summary. reboot returns at
once, so the summary printed while the Pi was going down and the SSH
session usually dropped before the web UI address could be read.

The reboot block moves, unchanged, to the very end of the script. The
interactive prompt now also follows the summary. Because the summary now
runs before the -y reboot, its one command that could fail under
`set -Eeuo pipefail` (the SSID lookup, when nmcli reports a connected
device but no active network line) gets `|| true`; a missing SSID was
already handled as "SSID unknown".

one-shot-install.sh prints its "Next steps" after the installer returns,
by which time the reboot is under way, so it now says so, and README's
Quick Install mentions the automatic reboot.

* chore(scripts): correct wrong comments and messages, drop dead code

No behaviour change except the output text noted below.

- 2775 is setgid, not the sticky bit (first_time_install.sh Step 3.1,
  fix_plugin_permissions.sh), and root needs no "PWM hardware access"
  to plugin files.
- The 777 comments in first_time_install.sh Step 3's fallback and
  fix_assets_permissions.sh said root needs it to write. Root ignores
  mode bits; the comments now say what 777 actually opens. The 777
  itself is unchanged.
- apt_remove ends in `|| true`, so Step 12's "Some packages could not be
  removed" branch could never run; it is gone and the helper stays
  non-fatal.
- detect_web_service_user's comment named Step 8 for the web unit
  (install_service.sh installs it in Step 7.5) and now says which
  branch actually runs.
- Step 5 described an "already installed" check that does not exist;
  the ACTUAL_USER comment described the re-exec backwards.
- on_error printed a literal "\n" before "Common fixes:".
- Dead code: one-shot-install.sh's uncalled fix_tmp_permissions,
  LEDMATRIX_ELEVATED=1 (never read) on the sudo re-exec, and
  configure_web_sudo.sh's unused PYTHON_PATH, which also made a missing
  python3 fatal for rules that never mention it.
- start_display.sh / stop_display.sh said "for user: <you>"; the
  service runs as root.

* refactor(fix_perms): fix_cache_permissions.sh uses setup_cache.sh's model

There were two models for /var/cache/ledmatrix. setup_cache.sh (the
installer's Step 2) and install_web_service.sh share it through the
ledmatrix group: root:ledmatrix, 2775, files 660, which is also what
DiskCache relies on to give files the directory's group.
fix_cache_permissions.sh instead made it 777 and re-grouped it to the
invoking user's group, undoing that.

It now runs setup_cache.sh for /var/cache/ledmatrix and keeps its own
handling of ~/.ledmatrix_cache. Dropped: /var/cache/ledmatrix/
placeholder_logos (nothing reads it) and the checks against the
`daemon` user (no service runs as daemon).

* ci: pin actions/checkout in the Claude workflows, drop template comments

claude.yml and claude-code-review.yml used actions/checkout@v4 while
test.yml and release-version-check.yml pin the v4.2.2 commit SHA; they
now pin the same SHA. The commented-out starter-template settings
(prompt, claude_args, paths, author filter) are removed.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(scripts): index every script and list removal candidates

New scripts/README.md gives one line per top-level script and scripts
directory, marked keep, dev-only or diagnostic, and lists the eight
scripts nothing in the repo refers to as candidates for removal (kept
for now). The install, utils and dev READMEs now list the files they
were missing.

* test: tighten two checks that mutation testing showed were too loose

- The wifi sudoers check matched `visudo -c -f "$TEMP_SUDOERS"` in the
  error report too, so replacing the check with `if false` still passed.
  It now requires the command as the condition.
- The summary test never had the setup access point up, so reinstating
  the bogus "Password: ledmatrix123" line went unnoticed. A case with
  hostapd active now checks the AP is described as open.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 4e61d7248a refactor(web): one error-response path for api_v3 (#624)
* refactor(web): answer unhandled api_v3 errors from one blueprint handler

Fifty-three api_v3 routes ended in a copy of the same catch-all: log the
traceback, return {status, "An error occurred; see logs for details",
details: describe_exception(e)} with a 500. They are replaced by one
errorhandler on the api_v3 blueprint that returns exactly that body.

It lives on the blueprint rather than falling through to app.py's global
handler because the two answers differ: the global one adds
error_code: UNKNOWN_ERROR, and api_client.js sends a body with an
error_code to the error modal and one without to a plain toast. A
blueprint handler also gives tests that mount api_v3 on a bare Flask app
the same answer the real app gives.

Only handlers that were byte-for-byte that shape were removed (matched on
the AST, and each rewritten function re-parsed and compared). Handlers
with their own message, extra keys, operation-history records or cleanup
stay, as does execute_plugin_action's step-1 handler, which sits inside
an `except subprocess.TimeoutExpired` arm that would otherwise turn a
plugin's timeout into a 408.

HTTPExceptions raised inside a route go back as themselves in the global
handler's 4xx shape. Where a removed catch-all used to swallow one (only
delete_plugin_asset's non-silent get_json() is reachable), a malformed
request now gets its 415/400 instead of a 500.

Most of the diff is re-indentation from unwrapping the try blocks;
`git diff -w` shows the real change.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(web): plugin action errors name the real failure, not UnboundLocalError

execute_plugin_action bound a local `logger` in its JSON-parsing arm,
which made `logger` local to the whole function. Every other
`logger.error` in it then raised UnboundLocalError, so a failing OAuth
step-1 script was reported as "UnboundLocalError: cannot access local
variable 'logger'" -- from the step-1 handler, and before the previous
commit from the route's outer catch-all too. Use the module logger.

Found by comparing every api_v3 route's forced-failure response before
and after the catch-all consolidation.

* refactor(web): drop the error category and exception-name code guessing

WebInterfaceError derived an ErrorCategory from every error code and put
it in each structured error body as `error_category`. Nothing reads it:
not the web UI (static/ and templates/), not the tests beyond the ones
pinning the mapping itself, and not any plugin in ledmatrix-plugins. The
enum, the inference table and the JSON key go.

from_exception() could also guess an error code from the exception's
class name ("Config" -> CONFIG_LOAD_FAILED, and so on). Every caller
passes a code, so the guess never ran; error_code is now required.

suggested_fixes stays: the error dialog in static/v3/js/utils/
error_handler.js lists them.

The REST reference loses error_category and says what an unanticipated
exception in an /api/v3 route answers.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(web): one call for the from_exception error responses

Nine plugin routes built a structured error by hand:

    from src.web_interface.errors import WebInterfaceError
    error = WebInterfaceError.from_exception(e, ErrorCode.X)
    return error_response(error.error_code, error.message,
                          details=error.details, context=error.context,
                          status_code=500)

That is now exception_error_response(e, ErrorCode.X) in api_helpers, so
error_response() is the only structured-error entry point the routes
use. The three operation-history routes never passed the context, and
with_context=False keeps their bodies exactly as they were; a test
compares the helper against the hand-written pair for both forms.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 ece416c4e5 refactor(plugins): one plugin-directory resolver (#623)
* refactor(plugins): one resolver for plugin id -> directory

Five places mapped a plugin id to its directory, each with its own rules
and each re-reading manifests per lookup: PluginManager discovery and
get_plugin_directory, PluginLoader.find_plugin_directory,
PluginStoreManager._find_plugin_path / list_installed_plugins, and
state_reconciliation.disk_plugin_ids. They disagreed on backup dirs,
on whether the manifest id or the directory name is the id, on duplicate
ids and on path safety.

src/plugin_system/plugin_dirs.py now holds the rules once:
PluginDirectoryIndex scans one directory and reads each manifest once;
resolve_plugin_dir() searches directories in order. What legitimately
differs per caller is an explicit argument: search dirs (discovery and
the loader: configured dir only; the store: configured then sibling
plugins/), ledmatrix- prefix (not for the store), case folding (loader
only), manifest pass (not for get_plugin_directory, whose discovery map
already holds it).

Behaviour changes, all for layouts installs do not produce:
- a directory whose manifest declares the id beats one merely named for
  it (discovery already worked this way; the loader and store now agree)
- the store searches the configured dir completely before plugins/
- backup and hidden dirs are skipped everywhere (the loader's case and
  manifest scans and list_installed_plugins used to return them)
- duplicate ids resolve deterministically (exact name, then
  ledmatrix-<id>, then by name) with a one-time warning; discovery no
  longer lists the id twice
- disk_plugin_ids / list_installed_plugins report manifest ids, falling
  back to the directory name; auto-update looks the directory up
- ids that are not one plain path segment resolve to nothing in every
  caller (the loader used to truncate them, the store to join them)

The .standalone-backup- marker is one constant, BACKUP_MARKER, used by
store_manager's rename-aside names and every lookup.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 13bbb537f3 refactor(web): one logging setup and one TTL cache for the web process (#621)
* refactor(web): use src.logging_config in the web process; routine requests to DEBUG

The web interface had its own logging setup (web_interface/logging_config.py)
that replaced the root handlers with a plain stdout formatter. The web
service's journal lines therefore never carried a syslog priority, so
`journalctl -p err -u ledmatrix-web` returned nothing while errors were
logged, and the line shape differed from the display's (the log viewer's
prefix stripping only matched the display format). It also ran after the
module-level managers were built, so their INFO lines at import (including
"Re-removed N uninstalled plugin(s)") were dropped.

app.py now calls src.logging_config.setup_logging() first thing, the same as
run.py: journald priorities under systemd, LEDMATRIX_DEBUG honoured,
LEDMATRIX_JSON_LOGGING still selects JSON.

Per-request logging moves to web_interface/request_logging.py. Every request
used to be logged at INFO, so the UI's polling filled the journal
("GET /api/v3/errors/summary - 200" every minute per tab). Now a successful
GET/HEAD/OPTIONS is DEBUG, a successful write is INFO, 4xx WARNING, 5xx
ERROR. Durations use perf_counter and print to 0.1ms.

The duplicate module is deleted; nothing else imported it.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(web): one thread-safe TTL cache for the web process

web_interface/cache.py becomes a small TTLCache class (lock-guarded,
monotonic clock) with the existing get_cached/set_cached/delete_cached/
invalidate_cache helpers kept on top of a shared instance, so the api_v3
callers are unchanged.

Bugs fixed:
- set_cached(ttl_seconds=...) ignored its TTL; only the reader's value
  counted and get_cached defaulted to 60s. An entry now expires after the TTL
  it was stored with; a reader's ttl_seconds can only shorten that. Both
  current callers pass the same value on both sides (fonts_catalog 300s,
  system_status 10s), so their observable TTLs are unchanged.
- get_cached deleted expired keys without a lock; two threads reading the
  same expired key could raise KeyError (reproduced), which the endpoints
  turned into a 500.

app.py's two hand-rolled systemctl caches (_ap_mode_cache, 30s, and
_ledmatrix_service_cache, 15s) now share one helper over a private
TTLCache, with the same TTLs. The AP-mode check used to retry on every
request after a failure (and log an ERROR each time); a failure now keeps the
last known answer for the TTL, as the display-service check already did. With
no systemctl at all (a dev machine) it answers False without forking.

Left alone as not TTL memoisation: the gzip cache (size-bounded, keyed by URL
and version), the settings search index (keyed by installed-plugin set), the
widget bundle (keyed by file fingerprint) and CacheManager (cross-process).

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 afe9001aed refactor(fonts): one BDF loader and one BDF rasterizer (#627)
* refactor(fonts): one BDF loader and one BDF rasterizer

BDF faces were loaded three ways (FontManager._load_bdf_font,
element_style._load_bdf, DisplayManager._load_fonts) and drawn by two
copies of the same per-pixel loop (DisplayManager._draw_bdf_text and the
plugin test harness's "replicated" copy), which golden images and
check_plugin/dev_server previews rely on matching the panel.

src/common/bdf_font.py now owns both:
- load_bdf_face(path, size) -> (face, realised_px): native-strike fallback
  for sizes the file lacks, one bounded LRU cache keyed on path, size and
  mtime. FontManager, element_style and DisplayManager delegate to it;
  read_bdf_native_size moves here (the old names delegate).
- draw_bdf_text(draw, text, x, y, face, color, clip): builds each glyph as
  a 1-bit mask and fills it with ImageDraw.bitmap instead of a draw.point
  per pixel. A blending Draw (RGB image, "RGBA" mode) keeps the point path
  so translucent colours still blend.

Pixel-identical: 220,032 renders (every bundled BDF at native and
off-strike sizes, 14 strings, 4 colours, clipped on every edge, through
each old loader x rasterizer) match origin/main byte for byte.
test/test_bdf_font.py keeps a lightweight version against a frozen copy of
the old loop. DisplayManager._draw_bdf_text goes from 1.4-23 ms to about
0.1 ms per string (the old loop re-read FreeType's buffer as a Python list
for every pixel).

* fix(testing): harness calendar_font is sized like the panel's

VisualTestDisplayManager built its 5x7 calendar_font / bdf_5x7_font as a
bare freetype.Face. With no size set its ascender reads 0, so BDF text
drawn with it landed 6px above where DisplayManager draws it -- entirely
off the canvas at y=0 -- and get_font_height() returned 0. Golden images
and check_plugin / dev_server previews showed text the panel does not.

Load it through load_bdf_face at the panel's 7px, so it is the very face
DisplayManager uses. Across the differential run this changes only the
cases drawn with the harness's own calendar_font (968 of 220,032), which
now match the panel's output.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(fonts): one BDF face per thread

The shared face cache now hands every loader (FontManager, element_style,
DisplayManager, the harness) the same freetype.Face. FreeType does not allow
two threads to use one face at once, since load_char rewrites its glyph
slot, so key the cache by thread as well.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 abedc46104 refactor(sports): merge the sports_shared/sports_card twins that behave identically (#626)
* refactor(sports): wrap the sports_card twins that behave identically

SportsCoreSharedMixin (switch mode, via each scoreboard's sports.py) and
sports_card (scroll/Vegas mode, via game_renderer.py) carried the same
helpers twice. test/test_sports_twins.py now calls every pair with the
same inputs -- the eight scoreboards' harness fixture games in flat,
flat+nested and nested-only shapes, plus edge cases (favourites by id and
abbreviation, NRL's colliding abbreviations, missing and non-numeric
scores, bad zones, out-of-range dates, shared font faces).

Identical pairs become thin wrappers over the sports_card function:
_card_option, _vs_text, _format_game_time, _coerce_rgb, _crisp_size (with
the class's own tables), _unshare_element_fonts (with the class's own
element map, via a new optional argument), and the colour/month/weekday/
font-grid tables (dicts copied, not aliased). _format_game_date shares the
card's formatting body but keeps its own setting, weekday zone and month
table; _schema_font_size shares the parser but keeps its per-class cache,
because a reloaded plugin gets new classes and a shared path cache would
stop it seeing an edited schema. _resolve_font_size agrees but keeps its
body so it still dispatches through the overridable hooks.

No behaviour change: old and new mixin/card agree on all 22,994
comparisons over the test corpus, and the pairs that do differ
(favourite-result colours on nested payloads and by favourites source,
the weekday's timezone, the element-name map, per-mode colours) are left
alone and pinned in TestPinnedDivergence for an owner decision.

* test(sports): pin that an ambiguous NRL abbreviation tints in both modes

NRL's resolver passes a shared abbreviation ("NEW") through with an error
and its _is_favorite_game matches ids only, but both favourite-colour
helpers match on abbreviation as well, so both display modes tint a
Knights or Warriors result for a user who typed "NEW". The twins agree;
neither consults the _favorite_key seam. Pinned so a fix is deliberate.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 82f3a3a3e4 fix(redaction): make credential redaction linear, not quadratic (#631)
* fix(redaction): make URL-userinfo redaction linear, not quadratic

_REDACT_URL_USERINFO could start a match at every letter of a run of
scheme characters, and each attempt read to the end of the run looking
for `://`. On a long unbroken run of letters or digits (a hex digest, an
ID, part of a response body) that is quadratic: 1.6s for 20k characters.

The display service redacts every message, stack trace and context value
it publishes in the error snapshot, holding the aggregator lock, and
re.sub holds the GIL for the whole call, so one such exception stalled
every thread, render loop included (~0.5s measured for 20k chars of hex).
It also made test_snapshot_stays_small the slowest test in the suite by
far: 142s of a 383s run, 139s of it in this one regex.

A match may now only start where a run of scheme characters starts
(negative lookbehind). Leading digits and `+.-` are captured in group 1
so the substitution restores them, and the scheme still has to start
with a letter, so what gets redacted is unchanged: old and new output
were identical on 300k fuzzed inputs. 20k chars now take ~0.5ms, 200k
~6ms, and test_snapshot_stays_small takes 0.8s.

test/test_redaction.py pins the exact output for schemes that begin after
digits or `+.-`, and bounds 50k-character runs at 1s; against the old
pattern those timing tests fail at 3-11s each.

`\s*` separated only by an optional quote. With no quote, a whitespace
run could be split between them in every possible way, and when no
credential followed (end of text, or `,` `"` `<` ...) the engine tried
them all before giving up: quadratic, 8s for `authorization:` and 20k
spaces, 17s with `Proxy-Authorization:` (tried again at the inner
`authorization`). Same stall as the URL pattern: re.sub holds the GIL,
and the display service redacts everything it publishes.

The quote and the whitespace after it are now one optional unit,
`\s*(?:["\']\s*)?`, which matches the same strings with only one way to
split them. Output is identical to the old pattern on 300k fuzzed
inputs; 20k spaces now take ~1.6ms. A scan of all three redaction
patterns over prefix/run/suffix shapes finds none left that scales
superlinearly.

test/test_redaction.py pins exact output for quoted, tabbed, multi-line
and credential-less headers, and bounds header + 20k whitespace at 1s;
against the previous pattern those fail at 8-17s each.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 f3894916a9 feat(web): show which plugins use each font; warn before deleting one (#619)
* feat(web): show which plugins use each font, warn before deleting one

The Fonts tab lists font files from the web process's own scan, and the
plugins that register fonts run in the display process, so the tab had no
way to say whether a font was in use before deleting it.

The display service now publishes {catalog key: [plugin ids]} to the
shared cache (font_usage_snapshot, src/font_usage.py), built from the
loaded plugins' FontManager.register_manager_font() registrations. A
daemon thread checks every 10 s and writes only when the usage changed
(plus a daily refresh so cache cleanup cannot expire it); it never raises.
Families, aliases (press_start, four_by_six, ...) and paths are resolved
through FontManager's catalog to the file stem the Fonts tab keys rows by;
fonts outside assets/fonts are left out. Unloading a plugin drops its
registrations (new FontManager.forget_manager_fonts).

GET /api/v3/fonts/catalog merges used_by into each row per request (the
5-minute scan cache is copied, never edited): a list of plugin ids, or
null when the display service has not reported. The tab shows a Used by
column ("unknown" / "-" / ids, rendered as text) and deleting an in-use
font names the plugins in the confirmation, from a fresh read. The server
still refuses only system fonts. Catalog fetches bypass the browser's
5-second API cache, which otherwise served the pre-delete list.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 9a1f94f793 fix(starlark): blank app locations use the device location, not San Francisco (#617)
* fix(starlark): blank app locations use the device location, not San Francisco

A Starlark (Tidbyt) app whose Location field is blank rendered at its
author's hard-coded DEFAULT_LOCATION -- usually San Francisco -- even with
the device city set under General settings. A user in Charlotte, NC got San
Francisco weather and radar with nothing in config.json to explain it.

src/device_location.py fills unset location fields at render time (display
plugin and the web standalone render): the device city is geocoded once via
Open-Meteo, preferring a match in the configured state/country, and cached
permanently. A saved location always wins; if the lookup fails the field is
dropped so the app uses its own default, and the failure is not retried for
30 minutes.

Also fixes the config form: clearing a location omitted the key, and the
save merges, so the old value could never be removed.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(starlark): say what happens when the device location can't be used

A blank app Location only renders at the device's city when one is set and
the Open-Meteo lookup finds it. With no city, no match, or the geocoder
unreachable (retried after 30 minutes), the app gets no location and keeps
its author's default. The guide, the config page hint, CONFIG_REFERENCE and
the CHANGELOG entry now say so.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 61e462c635 refactor: remove the skin system and the unused src/base_classes package (#615)
* refactor: remove the skin system

Skins never rendered with the current scoreboard plugins: the only hook was
SportsCore._render_game in src/base_classes, which no plugin builds on, so
the UI and store already treated them as unsupported. The owner decided on
2026-09-23 to remove them outright.

Removed src/skin_system/ (runtime, base class, fixtures), skins/,
scripts/validate_skin.py and their tests; the store's "type": "skin"
installer, uninstaller and hide/refuse filters (the official registry lists
no skins); SchemaManager.inject_skin_selector; and GET /api/v3/skins.

Stored skin/skin_options config values are handled in the next commit.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(config): drop retired skin/skin_options keys instead of validating them

A config.json written while the skin system existed can carry skin and
skin_options in any plugin section, and most plugin schemas set
additionalProperties: false. They are no longer core plugin properties;
RETIRED_PLUGIN_KEYS in schema_manager lists them and
drop_retired_plugin_keys removes them (unless the plugin's own schema
declares the name) in prepare_plugin_config, which loading, hot reload,
GET /plugins/config and both web saves already share, and in
validate_config_against_schema for callers that validate a raw section.
POST /plugins/config and /config/main also drop them from the stored
section they merge into, so they leave config.json on the next save.

Tests cover the load path (real PluginManager.load_plugin: no schema
warning, not degraded), raw and prepared validation,
validate_all_plugin_configs, and the JSON, form and /config/main saves.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor: remove the unused src/base_classes package

No scoreboard plugin builds on src.base_classes: the nine monorepo
scoreboards ship their own sports.py and share code through src/common
(docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md), and none of the third-party registry plugins
imports it. The one import anywhere, baseball-scoreboard's
rankings_manager.py, is a lazy import of ESPNDataSource in a class nothing
instantiates.

Removed the package and the eight test files that only tested it
(test_api_extractors, test_data_sources, test_sports_base_characterization,
test_sports_capabilities, test_sports_core_promotions,
test_sports_logo_cache_bounded, test_sports_modes_promotions,
test_sports_odds_fanout). test_common_is_hardware_free no longer lists
src.base_classes as a forbidden import, and comments in sports_helpers.py
and base_odds_manager.py stop pointing at it.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: drop the skin system and src/base_classes from the docs

Deletes docs/SKIN_SYSTEM.md and docs/CREATING_SKINS.md and every link to
them (docs/README.md, README.md, PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT_GUIDE.md, the /skins
section of REST_API_REFERENCE.md), the skin section of CLAUDE.md and the
term in PRODUCT.md. SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md now says src/base_classes was
removed and shared code lives in src/common, in the Layering section and
the view-model-contract rule. Other docs stop pointing at the removed
package. CHANGELOG records both removals under Unreleased.

* fix(store): hide and refuse registry entries that aren't plugins

The skin filters went with the skin system, but a custom registry can still
list "type": "skin" entries, and installing one as a plugin would unpack it
into the plugins directory. PluginStoreManager.is_plugin_entry() (a missing
type means plugin) now hides non-plugin entries from the store and
custom-registry listings, and install refuses them, in the route with a
clear 400 and in _install_plugin_impl for any other caller.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 4a1fd7464a fix(errors): serve /api/v3/errors/* from the display service; add a Plugin errors panel (#614)
* fix(errors): serve /api/v3/errors/* from the display service's aggregator

The error aggregator is a per-process singleton and only the display
service runs plugins, so only its aggregator records anything. The routes
read the web process's own, empty one and always reported no errors.

The display service now publishes a bounded snapshot of its aggregator to
the shared cache (plugin_error_snapshot) from a daemon thread: at most once
every 10 s and only when something changed, never raising into the caller.
The routes read it and keep their response shapes, adding
snapshot_available, generated_at and clear_pending; exception text has
credentials redacted.

POST /errors/clear writes a clear request (plugin_error_clear_request) that
the display applies on its next 5 s tick via the new clear_before(), which
keeps errors recorded after the cutoff and rebuilds the counts. Until the
snapshot acknowledges the request, reads hide everything before the cutoff,
so a snapshot written just before the click cannot bring errors back. Adds
"all": true; cleared_count is null when only the display can know it.

* feat(web): show plugin errors in the Logs tab

A compact panel under the log viewer: per-plugin error counts, repeating
errors (type, count, affected plugins, a sample message, last seen) and a
Clear button, with empty states for "no errors" and "display service
hasn't reported yet". Polls every 15 s while the tab is active; all text
goes through escapeHtml.

* fix(errors): redact the published snapshot before clipping it

Keeping only a traceback's tail (or clipping a message) could cut an
`api_key=` marker off while keeping the secret after it, and the web side's
redaction would then have nothing to match. The display now redacts every
free-text field of the snapshot first. The patterns move to a Flask-free
src/redaction.py so the display service can use them; redact_text in the web
error handler uses the same function, unchanged in behaviour.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 3f8edf5113 fix(logos): one hardened logo download path; shared, real HTTP headers (#612)
* fix(logos): harden the plugin logo download and share core HTTP headers

download_missing_logo / LogoDownloader.download_logo, the path the
scoreboard plugins use, read response.content with no size cap and wrote
straight to the final path, so a failed or corrupt download could be left
in place and cached as the logo. It now goes through fetch_logo: streamed
with a 10 MB cap, image/* only, decoded by Pillow, converted to RGBA once,
and moved into place atomically. A failure leaves no partial or temp file
and keeps any logo already on disk. LogoHelper._download_logo delegates to
the same code. Public signatures and return values are unchanged; saved
files are pixel-identical to before (RGBA, palette+tRNS, L+tRNS, LA, JPEG).

download_missing_logo reuses one downloader per thread instead of a new
Session per logo. Per thread rather than behind a lock: Session is not
documented thread-safe, and a lock would serialise every plugin's
downloads behind the slowest one.

Placeholders are written atomically, without the test_write.tmp probe.

The logo downloader and background data service now send the real
ChuckBuilds User-Agent from src.common.api_helper (USER_AGENT,
DEFAULT_HTTP_HEADERS) instead of a yourusername/contact@example.com
placeholder, and no longer hand-set Accept-Encoding: br (brotli is not
installed).

* fix(http): drop APIHelper's hand-set brotli encoding; LogoHelper sends the real UA

APIHelper advertised `br` though brotli isn't installed, so a server that
honoured it would send a body requests can't decode. LogoHelper sent a bare
`LEDMatrix-Common/1.0`, the kind of User-Agent ESPN has been rejecting.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 269385c97c fix(config): write config.json through one durable atomic writer (#611)
save_config() opened config.json with 'w' and streamed json.dump into it,
so a power cut or an unencodable value left the file truncated.
save_config_atomic() renamed a temp file into place but never fsynced it,
rewrote the unchanged secrets file on every save, and re-parsed every
backup to rotate them. save_raw_file_content() had its own third copy.

All of them, plus rollback and config creation from the template, now go
through atomic_write_text(): temp file in the same directory, fsync,
final mode set before the rename, rename (retried on Windows while a
reader holds the file), directory fsync. A root save copies the previous
owner onto the new file so a rename by the display service no longer
hands config.json to root; the shared-group fix-up is unchanged. The
mode is chosen from the file name, so a "secrets" directory in the
install path no longer makes config.json 0640.

The secrets file is rewritten only when its content changes, and backup
rotation works from filenames alone. Backups keep their names
(config/backups/config.json.backup.<version>, paired secrets backup) and
the five newest are kept, as before.

35 methods on CacheManager, DisplayManager, FontManager and PluginManager
have no caller in core, the ledmatrix-plugins monorepo or the registry's
third-party plugins, but plugins live elsewhere, so they stay for one
release. src.deprecation.deprecated logs a warning (and emits a
DeprecationWarning) the first time each is called in a process, naming the
release that removes it. The list and replacements are in CHANGELOG and
PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE's new Deprecated APIs section; a test pins the set.

* fix(errors): stop affected_plugins growing without bound

Each repeat of an error pattern appended every plugin in the time window to
the pattern's list again, so a plugin failing in a loop grew the display

million entries. Keep the list unique.

* fix(fonts): load a BDF font at its native size instead of PIL's default

FreeType rejects any size but a BDF strike's own, and FontManager answered

requested at 8 or 10px rendered as PIL's default font. Retry at the native
strike, as element_style already does.

* fix(web): plugin toggle failures no longer claim "operation in progress"

Every exception in POST /plugins/toggle was mapped to
PLUGIN_OPERATION_CONFLICT, so any failure told the user "A plugin operation
is already in progress". Report the failure as what it is, and record the
plugin id in the operation history for form posts too (it read a `data`
variable that only the JSON path set).

* fix(web): route plugin card clicks through handlePluginAction

The document-level delegation checked `typeof handlePluginAction`, which is
scoped inside the plugin-manager IIFE and so never visible to it. Every card
click took a copied fallback that stopped propagation (the grid's own
listener never ran), confirmed an uninstall twice, and sent Starlark app
uninstalls to POST /plugins/uninstall instead of DELETE /starlark/apps/<id>.
Expose the handler on window and delegate to it.

Also run every test/js/unit suite under pytest: they need only node, but CI
ran one of the eight.

* fix(display): apply Rotation durations, WiFi messages and Vegas settings

Three settings the web UI saves never reached the display:

- Rotation & Durations: display.display_durations was never read. Every
  plugin inherits get_display_duration() and the plugin was asked first. A
  saved value now wins. The page shows unsaved screens blank with the
  plugin's own duration as a placeholder, and saving a blank removes the
  override, so one save no longer pins every screen.
- WiFi status overlay: the controller looked for wifi_status.json one
  directory above the repo. Both sides now use
  wifi_manager.get_wifi_status_path(). The message is written by rename so
  the display never reads it half-written, and the resumed plugin redraws the
  whole panel afterwards.
- Vegas: nothing called coordinator.update_config(), so saved Vegas settings
  never reached a running scroll. They are now queued when
  display.vegas_scroll changes, and applied while Vegas is stopped too, so a
  disable then re-enable works. The follower's scroll-speed default (75) now
  matches VegasModeConfig's (50).

Also throttles Vegas's per-frame live-priority scan to 4Hz. It cost 139us
per frame on a Pi 4 with two scoreboards (1.7% of a 125fps frame) and grows
with each plugin.

* fix: keep affected_plugins order when serialized; guard non-Element targets

ErrorPattern.to_dict() ran the now-ordered list through set(), so
get_error_summary() listed plugins in an unstable order. The document-level
card-action listener called event.target.closest() without checking the
target is an Element.

* docs(changelog): record #600 in the 3.5.0 section

#600 merged into main while the release PR was open, so the 3.5.0 section
went in without it. Nothing in that PR touched the CHANGELOG, and no check
covers "everything merged since the last tag is written down", so tagging
v3.5.0 as main stands would ship the standings-endpoint fix undocumented.

The entry goes under Sports data, next to the other ESPN fetch changes, and
is written from the commit: what the old order did, why a college league's
200 defeated the 404 fallback, and what is now treated as routine.

No version change: 3.5.0 is not tagged yet, so this belongs in that section
rather than a new one. `scripts/check_release_version.py v3.5.0` still passes.

* docs(changelog): record #602 in the 3.5.0 section

#602 merged into main after #601, the same way #600 merged during it, and
also touched no CHANGELOG. So the section was still a commit short of what
v3.5.0 will actually ship.

It gets its own "Installers" subsection rather than a line under "Small
fixes": a malformed drop-in in /etc/sudoers.d makes sudo refuse every command
for every user, which on a headless Pi is unrecoverable over SSH. That is not
a small fix, and someone reading the release notes to decide whether to update
should see it.

Written from the commit: what both installers did, what `visudo -c` now gates,
and the fixed /tmp path that mktemp replaced.

`scripts/check_release_version.py v3.5.0` still passes, and this branch is
rebased onto 967f3a05 so the section now covers every commit since v3.4.0.

claude[bot]andClaude Opus 5 21c8a54f68 chore: prepare the 3.5.0 release (#601)
* chore: prepare the 3.5.0 release

Turns the CHANGELOG's Unreleased section into `## 3.5.0` and bumps
`src.__version__`, the value plugin `ledmatrix_min_version` floors compare
against. No behaviour change; nothing outside the CHANGELOG, `src/__init__.py`
and one docs line is touched.

The staged entries are reshaped into the `### ` subsections every released
section already uses, and the "new modules a plugin may import via `src.*`"
block moves to the top as the plugin-facing summary, the same shape as 3.4.0.
Its floor, written as "the release that ships this" while it was staged, is now
3.5.0, and `docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md` says 3.5.0 for `sports_helpers.py`
instead of "(unreleased)".

Four merged changes had never been written down. They are added under the
subsection each belongs to, from the commits and their measurements:

- the idle back-off clamped to the next kickoff (#599)
- concurrent ESPN date chunks (#596)
- the three web routes that consulted plugin manifests before anything had
  discovered plugins, one of which wrote a plugin API key to config.json in
  plain text (#594)
- the cache permission fix and its systemd unit changes (#593), which get
  their own subsection

No tag and no release: `scripts/check_release_version.py v3.5.0` passes, so
tagging is a separate, deliberate step.

* ci: let Claude Code Review run on PRs the Claude app opens

The review action refuses a workflow whose actor is a GitHub App unless the
app is named in `allowed_bots`, which this workflow never set:

  Actor is a GitHub App: claude[bot]
  Actor type: Bot
  Action failed with error: Workflow initiated by non-human actor: claude
  (type: Bot). Add bot to allowed_bots list or use '*' to allow all bots.

It aborts about two seconds in, before the diff is read, so the check is red
on every such PR and re-running cannot help: the actor does not change. Until
now no PR here had a bot author, so nothing tripped it.

`'claude'` rather than `'*'`: the action lowercases each entry and strips a
trailing `[bot]` before comparing it to the actor
(`isAllowedBot` in `src/github/validation/actor.ts`), so this admits
`claude[bot]` and no other app. `'*'` would admit any app that can trigger a
workflow here, with a prompt it controls — the action's own docs warn about
that on public repositories, and this one is public.

The write-permission check already allowed the app; `checkHumanActor` was the
only gate.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 19686ab761 fix(web): plugin settings form shows schema defaults for unsaved keys (#597)
The server-rendered plugin settings partial rendered straight from the
saved config, so an option added in a plugin update (geochron 1.2.0's
show_date / show_date_line, default true) drew as an unchecked box, and
the save route's missing-checkbox handling then stored it as false.
Enum dropdowns likewise showed their first option instead of the default.

- _load_plugin_config_partial runs the stored section through
  prepare_plugin_config (as GET /plugins/config does) before masking
  secrets, so a secret's schema default is masked too.
- render_field falls back to the field's own default, covering children
  of objects that declare a default of their own (where the defaults
  extraction stops).
- The legacy-boolean parity test now compares against the config the
  plugin actually runs with (defaults included).

* fix(sports): share the ESPN rejected-range memo with the background service

BackgroundDataService always sent a season range first and, on a 400,
fell back to chunks without recording the rejection, so every background
season fetch spent a doomed request and live scoreboards learned nothing
from it (or it from them). The worker now consults and sets the same
6-hour memo fetch_espn_scoreboard() uses: a known rejection goes straight
to month/day chunks, and if every chunk fails the range is asked once for
a real error without re-spending the chunks.

* fix(web): keep plugin asset and action routes inside their directories

POST /plugins/assets/upload, GET /plugins/assets/list and POST
/plugins/assets/delete joined the request's plugin_id onto assets/plugins
unchecked, so '../../config' created, wrote, listed and deleted outside
it. #561 guarded only the route that serves the files. All three now go
through path_safety.resolve_under and answer 400 for anything but a
plain name, and delete only unlinks a metadata path that resolves into
that plugin's uploads directory.

PluginManager.get_plugin_directory refuses ids that are not one plain
path segment, so /plugins/action (which runs a manifest script from the
returned directory) and every other caller get the guard; the action
route also rejects such ids up front, covering its no-manager fallback.

* fix(web): report a no-op plugin update as already up to date

update_plugin() returns True both for a real update and for "nothing to

bundled plugin). With no git commit to compare, POST /plugins/update
called every such success "updated successfully", so Check & Update All
counted most official plugins as updated on every run.

The route now reads what changed off the plugin itself (commit, else
manifest version, else last_updated) and returns data.update_status
(updated / up_to_date / local_only). The update-all toast is summarised
by PluginInstallManager.summarizeUpdateResults from that status, falling
back to the message for older servers.

target_fps whenever limit_refresh_rate_hz was the 100 Hz default. Since
frame-locked presentation (#545) the helper steps a fixed number of whole
pixels per presented frame and the panel presents at its real refresh, so
the General tab's "Scroll Frame Rate" became a speed multiplier: 60 ran a
50 px/s scoreboard at 100 px/s, 200 ran it at 25 px/s.

The ladder now uses the display manager's refresh_hz, then
display.hardware.limit_refresh_rate_hz, then the default. target_fps is
not consulted. Docstrings now say scroll_delay is ignored for pacing (no
behaviour change there) and describe the fixed-step model.

Tests: replace the tests that pinned target_fps as the ladder refresh and
described time-based stepping; assert speed independence from target_fps
(unit and end-to-end presented px/s against the real helper), that the
fixed per-frame step is applied, and that scroll_delay does not change
speed.

* fix(web): escape registry and upload values in plugin manager inline handlers

The store, saved-repository and custom-registry buttons built
onclick='...(${JSON.stringify(id)})...'. JSON.stringify leaves ' alone,
so a custom registry entry whose id contained ' closed the attribute and
added its own handler. One helper, jsStringAttr(), now HTML-escapes the
JSON literal for every one of those handlers, and the store View button
opens only http(s) repo links.

The live window.updateImageList (plugins_manager.js loads last, so its
copy wins over the file-upload widget's) wrote the uploaded file's
original name, path and ids into markup raw; they are escaped now.

* fix(update): let the root pip wrapper install web_interface/requirements.txt

Update Code, the automatic update's health check and Install Base
Requirements install web_interface/requirements.txt through
safe_pip_install.sh, which only allowed the root requirements.txt. The
first commit changing that file would fail its dependency install, and
the automatic updater rolls back any update whose dependencies did not
install -- on every device, for every newer commit.

The wrapper now lists both core requirement files. Only their folders
are resolved, so a requirements.txt symlinked out of the project is
compared by its target and refused (previously the root file's own
symlink target was what got allowed). The updater's file list is a
named constant, and a test runs the real wrapper (pip stubbed) on
every file Update Code and the rollback install.

* fix(web): do not retry plugin requests that got an HTTP answer

PluginAPI.request wrapped everything that was not a structured error as
NETWORK_ERROR: a proxy's 502 HTML page (response.json() throws) and a
JSON error without error_code included. Check & Update All retries
NETWORK_ERROR, so those updates were re-sent five more times with
backoff, contrary to the #587 contract that an HTTP error response is
the server's answer.

NETWORK_ERROR now means only that fetch() rejected. Any HTTP response
without an error_code, or with a body that is not JSON, is API_ERROR
with the HTTP status attached. Tested against the shipped api_client.js.

* fix(scroll): restart the stats window when an idle gap is dropped by size

#582 dropped an idle gap from the frame stats two ways: the reset_scroll()
sentinel, which also restarts the 5s window timer, and a size guard for
scrollers that never call reset_scroll(), which did not. On that path the
first real frame after the gap found the boundary overdue and logged a
stats line for a one-frame window. Both paths now share one seeding helper.

* fix(update): leave plugins alone when update_core's own rollback fails

update_core returns rollback_failed directly when a partial pull or an
update whose health check never started cannot be rolled back. run()
only held plugins back for 'verifying', so those devices still got new
plugin versions and a display restart on top of a core in an unknown
state -- the opposite of what the health-check path does, and of the
3.4.0 changelog (plugins are left alone if the rollback fails).

* docs(api): make the REST reference match the api_v3 package

Every documented request body, query parameter and response shape was
re-checked against the handlers in web_interface/blueprints/api_v3/.
Fixes calls that failed as documented (repo_url, action_id/params,
files/image_id, font_file+font_family, ?font=, cache key,
auto_enable_ap_mode, plugin limit keys), removes the font-override
endpoints dropped in #566, corrects response shapes (plugins/config,
plugins/schema, health, metrics, operation history, github-status,
fonts/catalog, cache/list, logs, wifi, on-demand, SSE streams), and adds
the 26 routes it omitted (backup, system auto-update/git, wifi radio,
starlark editor, MQTT bridge, status endpoints, skins).

Documents the merge semantics of partial JSON saves to /config/main and
/plugins/config and the dim-schedule POST accepting GET's days shape,
which land in the same change set. Replaces app.py line numbers and the
removed api_v3.py path with file and function names.

* fix(web): remove the General-tab plugin system toggles that did nothing

plugin_system.auto_discover, auto_load_enabled and development_mode had
General-tab toggles whose help tips promised dormant plugins and verbose
logging, but nothing reads them: every enabled plugin is discovered and
loaded regardless. Remove the three toggles.

The keys stay tolerated in stored configs. The save handler now stores
a flag only when a client sends it; treating a missing key as an
unchecked box would otherwise rewrite all three to false on every
General-tab save, which still posts plugins_directory.

* refactor(scroll): remove dead code left by #523/#570

- Drop the optional scipy.ndimage import and HAS_SCIPY; nothing read
  them since the numpy blend replaced the scipy path.
- Drop ScrollHelper._last_integer_position and frame_time_target, which
  were written but never read.
- Keep target_fps and set_target_fps() but document them as
  informational: nothing paces off them, yet ledmatrix-elections'
  test_scroll_pacing.py reads helper.target_fps back and third-party
  plugins may call the setter.
- Fix stale comments: fixed_pixels_per_frame's "use scroll_delay to
  throttle", set_sub_pixel_scrolling's "default: True", and
  set_frame_based_scrolling's claim that it steps.

The plugins monorepo was grepped for every removed name; none is used.

* docs(fonts): point plugins at plugin_manager.font_manager; drop removed overrides UI

FONT_MANAGER.md told plugins to read display_manager.font_manager, which
does not exist, so a plugin following it failed to load with
AttributeError. The shared FontManager lives on the PluginManager and
BasePlugin._get_font_manager() returns it (with a fallback for harnesses).

Also removes the Fonts-tab override workflow and element-override panels
that #566 deleted, from FONT_MANAGER.md and WEB_INTERFACE_GUIDE.md.

Content-Type, so the handlers saw an empty body and answered 400.

* fix(config): use the shared core-key list in the last three private copies

StartupValidator warned "Plugin 'auto_update' is enabled but not found" on
every display start with auto-update or a dim schedule on; the reserved
plugin-id check missed auto_update, sync, location and the rest; and
ConfigManager's (uncalled) orphan cleanup would have deleted display,
schedule and auto_update. All three now read src/core_config_keys.py, which
also gains CORE_SECRETS_KEYS for the github/youtube secrets sections.

* fix(web): partial JSON saves to /config/main change only what they send

A JSON body with one field reset every checkbox in the sections it touched:
the MQTT bridge's brightness slider turned off disable_hardware_pulsing,
inverse_colors, show_refresh_rate and use_short_date_format, and a
timezone-only save turned off web-UI autostart and weekly auto-updates.
Missing-means-unchecked now applies only to form posts: form-encoded bodies
and the v3 forms, which mark themselves with a hidden __form_section input.

Also on the config routes:
- vegas_min/max_cycle_duration no longer match the generic *_duration rule,
  so they stop landing in display_durations and a blank one no longer
  rejects the whole Display save;
- saving from the Raw JSON editor calls start_setup_if_needed like the
  General form, so enabling auto-update there finishes its setup;
- the schedule and dim-schedule POSTs accept the per-day days.<day> shape
  their GETs return, as well as the flat form keys.

* fix(scripts): install plugin dependencies from the configured plugins directory

install_plugin_dependencies.sh scanned only plugins/, but the Plugin
Store installs into plugin_system.plugins_directory (default
plugin-repos), so the documented "Recommended" fix found 0 plugins on
every store install. It now reads plugins_directory from
config/config.json (relative to the project root or absolute, default
plugin-repos) and also scans plugins/ for dev symlinks, installing a
plugin reached through both only once.

With set -e alone, `pip ... | tee` took tee's exit status, so a failed
pip install was reported as success; set -o pipefail.

* docs: replace stale API names, line numbers and the api_v3.py path

- ADVANCED_FEATURES: StreamManager methods that exist
  (get_next_segment, take_next_group, refresh, advance_cycle, ...), and the
  real on-demand status envelope ({status, data: {state, service}})
- app.py:199 / :144 / :607-619 line citations and
  web_interface/blueprints/api_v3.py (now a package) replaced with file and
  function names in ADVANCED_FEATURES, CONFIG_DEBUGGING,
  PLUGIN_ARCHITECTURE_SPEC, PLUGIN_QUICK_REFERENCE,
  PLUGIN_CONFIGURATION_TABS, TROUBLESHOOTING and web_interface/README
- CONFIG_DEBUGGING: partial /config/main saves change only sent keys; use
  /config/raw/main to replace the file; describe where validation runs
- TROUBLESHOOTING: clear_cache.py needs --clear-all (no args only prints
  usage)

* fix(scripts): verify the web interface that actually ships, on port 5000

verify_installation.sh failed every healthy install: it required the
long-removed web_interface_v2.py and looked for a listener on port 5001,
while the web interface binds 5000 (web_interface/start.py). It now
checks the files ledmatrix-web.service runs (start_web_conditionally.py,
web_interface/start.py, app.py) and port 5000. verify_web_ui.sh had the
same 5001 port in its listen check, HTTP probe and printed URLs.

Port matches are anchored so :50001 no longer counts as :5000.

* docs(plugins): one display-size contract: display_manager.width/height

CLAUDE.md (#580) says to read display_manager.width/height because
matrix is None when hardware init fails; the development guide, the
safety-harness doc and two DisplayManager docstrings still recommended
matrix.width/height. The bundled starlark-apps plugin read matrix.width
unguarded, so its magnify recommendation and frame scaling raised in
fallback mode (e.g. after the Pi 5 hardware refusal).

* fix(install): make install_service.sh --help print usage instead of installing

install_service.sh parsed no arguments, so `sudo ./scripts/install/
install_service.sh --help` (presented as harmless in MIGRATION_GUIDE.md)
rewrote ledmatrix.service, ledmatrix-web.service and both update-verify
units and enabled/started them. It now handles -h/--help (usage, exit 0,
no changes) and rejects any other argument with exit 2 before doing
anything. Running it with no arguments, as first_time_install.sh does,
is unchanged.

* docs(scroll): describe the fixed-step model and document frame_hold

Since #545 a crisp speed from scroll_config.configure() makes the helper
advance a fixed whole-pixel step per presented frame with no clock, and the
display manager's frame hold is part of the speed. The docs still described
the removed wall-clock model:

- scroll_config's module and configure() docstrings said speed is applied
  in time-based mode and that omitting the hold "falls back to fractional
  pixels"; omitting it actually runs the scroll frame_hold times too fast.
- SCROLL_PERFORMANCE.md said ScrollHelper accumulates elapsed time in both
  modes, and read a 20 ms stats median as missed refreshes although that
  is a healthy 50 px/s (hold 2) scroll. It now explains the fixed step,
  the hold-dependent healthy median, that target_fps plays no part, and
  that a hand-added scroll_pixels_per_second loses to a schema-default pair.
- PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md documented set_scrolling_state(is_scrolling)
  without frame_hold; it now documents the parameter (core 3.4.0) with a
  configure() + set_scrolling_state example.
- update_scroll_position/set_scroll_speed and set_scrolling_state
  docstrings say the same.

* docs(config): mark target_fps legacy; describe what Vegas scroll_delay does

- General tab "Scroll Frame Rate" (target_fps) is labelled legacy: after
  the sports_scroll fix nothing in core scrolling reads it. The field and
  its API validation stay so saved configs and plugins that read
  global_config['target_fps'] keep working. CONFIG_REFERENCE says the same.
- Vegas frame_based_scrolling/scroll_delay were described as frame-count
  stepping at ~50 FPS. Neither steps nor sets a frame rate: frame-based
  mode converts the speed to px per scroll_delay, clamps it to 0.1-5, and
  still advances by elapsed time, so the applied speed is
  clamp(scroll_speed * scroll_delay, 0.1, 5) / scroll_delay px/s. The
  config comments, render_pipeline comment and CONFIG_REFERENCE rows now
  say so. No behaviour change.

* docs(deps): describe how plugin dependencies are really installed

The guides said the web service runs as root, that installs pick --user
from os.geteuid(), and quoted a warning and a
PluginManager._install_plugin_dependencies() method that don't exist. The
web unit runs as the installing user; store installs go through
install_requirements_file() and sudo safe_pip_install.sh (root), with a
user-level fallback that says so, and load-time installs run in the
display service's own (root) interpreter.

Manual paths now use the configured plugins directory (plugin-repos/ by
default) instead of plugins/, which store installs no longer use, and
install_plugin_dependencies.sh is described as scanning that directory.

* fix(update): count local changes one way for the preflight and the pull

The automatic update's preflight ignored mode-only changes and anything
whose status line contained plugins/ or plugin-repos/, then promised
"Automatic updates will not stash your changes". perform_core_update
used plain git status (modes count) and ignored only 'plugins/', then
ran 'git stash push -- :!plugins', which nothing ever pops. So an edit
to a bundled plugin under plugin-repos/, or the installer's chmods on
tracked scripts, passed the preflight and was stashed away for good.

- auto_update.local_changes() is the one predicate both use:
  core.fileMode=false, porcelain -z, and plugins/ and plugin-repos/
  excluded by leading folder rather than substring (a core file under
  web_interface/static/v3/js/plugins/ now counts).
- Update Code's explicit stash leaves out both plugin folders; the
  pull's --autostash carries their edits and mode changes across and
  reapplies them.
- The automatic updater calls perform_core_update(stash_local_changes=
  False), which refuses instead of stashing edits that appeared after
  the preflight; update_core reports that as 'blocked'.

* fix(scripts): diagnostics follow the web autostart default and api_v3 package

#556 made a missing web_display_autostart mean "start" (only an explicit
false/off keeps the web interface down), but the diagnostics still said
otherwise: diagnose_web_ui.sh reported a missing key as "defaults to
false", diagnose_web_interface.sh said the web interface "will not start
unless this is set to true" and recommended enabling it, and
debug_web_manual.py printed False. Troubleshooting a down web UI pointed
users at a non-cause.

Both shell scripts now evaluate the setting with the launcher's own
autostart_enabled() (inline fallback if it cannot be imported) and report
on / off / not set (on) / unparseable config; debug_web_manual.py uses
the same function. They also check web_interface/blueprints/api_v3/
__init__.py: api_v3.py became a package in #553, so every healthy
checkout was reported as missing a file.

README.md). MIGRATION_GUIDE presented 'sudo install_service.sh --help'

real run does. SSH_UNAVAILABLE_AFTER_INSTALL: verify_installation.sh

* fix(display): size the preview after orientation and pixel mappers

display_geometry.physical_size claimed to give DisplayManager's answer but
only computed cols*chain x rows*parallel. RGBMatrix.width/height are measured
after the library's pixel mappers, so a Rotate:90 / orientation 90 chain
previewed 128x32 for a 32x128 panel and a U-mapper chain of four 256x32 for
128x64.

Model the built-in mappers' size effect as the pinned lib/pixel-mapper.cc
does (Rotate, U-mapper, V-mapper, StackToRow, Remap; Mirror and unknown
names leave it alone), and move the orientation composition here so
DisplayManager and the preview share it. The module docstring no longer
claims the sync handshake uses it; that imports only DEFAULT_CHAIN_LENGTH.

Audit finding F18.

* fix(display): refuse settings the rgbmatrix library aborts on, on every board

The library answers several settings with a NULL matrix or abort() rather
than an error, so the display service crash-looped (Restart=on-failure)
instead of reaching fallback mode: rows above 64, chain_length above 255
(uint8_t binding setter, documented as "no upper limit"), a misspelled
hardware_mapping, and parallel 2-3 on a single-output mapping, reachable
from the Display form on the default adafruit-hat(-pwm) mapping. #586 only
guarded the Pi 5 subset.

- src/matrix_support.py holds the rules for every board (Options::Validate
  ranges, binding integer types, mapping names and outputs from
  lib/hardware-mapping.c) plus the Pi 5 ones, and is the one source of the
  API's numeric ranges.
- DisplayManager checks them before building options and raises
  MatrixSettingsRefused, so a hand-edited config falls back with a logged,
  reported reason. Emulator mode only warns.
- The config API refuses them with a 400 naming the setting; combinations
  are checked against stored values but reported only when the request
  sets a field involved.
- The hardware status file gains "cause" (settings/library/forced). The
  fallback log and Display banner give the Pi 5 rebuild hint only for a
  library failure instead of rebuild + gpio_slowdown advice for every
  failure; one Pi 5 slowdown recommendation (1-3, start at 1).
- The Display form offers classic/classic-pi1 and orientation 90/270 and
  renders any other stored mapping selected with a warning, so an
  unrelated save no longer rewrites them; the API accepts 90/270.

Audit findings F03, F16, F19, F21.

* docs(display): library limits, template defaults and Pi 5 slowdown

- rows 8-64, chain_length 1-255, parallel limited by the mapping's outputs,
  classic/classic-pi1 mappings and orientation 90/270 documented.
- Defaults are the config.template.json values: config migration adds
  missing keys from the template, so the listed "code defaults" never
  applied.
- One Raspberry Pi 5 gpio_slowdown recommendation: 1-3 in PIO mode,
  starting at 1.
- Troubleshooting describes the refused-settings fallback, and CHANGELOG
  corrects the Unreleased "no upper limit" entry.

Audit findings F19, F20, F21.

* fix(scripts): scroll_speeds.py opens the panel with the service's options

--measure and --demo built RGBMatrixOptions from a private copy of the
display service's builder that had drifted: gpio_slowdown came from
display.hardware (default 2) instead of display.runtime (default 3), and
rp1_rio, panel_type, disable_hardware_pulsing, inverse_colors,
pixel_mapper_config and orientation were skipped, with different defaults
(hardware_mapping "regular", pwm_bits 11). A panel needing a high slowdown
was measured -- or garbled -- in a setup the service never drives.

The option filling in DisplayManager._setup_matrix moves, unchanged, into
DisplayManager.apply_matrix_options(options, config), which _setup_matrix
calls and the script reuses (overriding only limit_refresh_rate_hz for
--measure). The script now loads the whole config rather than the hardware
block. Tests pin the script's options to the service's attribute for
attribute.

* fix(scripts): scroll_speeds.py recommends keys the resolver honours

The ladder ended by telling users to set
display_options.scroll_pixels_per_second. scroll_config ranks that key
below the scroll_speed + scroll_delay pair, deliberately, and several
plugin schemas default the pair into config, so the advised key was
silently ignored (a schema-default 1/0.02 pair plus an advised 66 still
resolved to 50 px/s).

The advice is now the pair that selects the crisp speed exactly
(pixels_per_frame every frame_hold/refresh seconds), explains that the
pair outranks scroll_pixels_per_second, and gives the scoreboards'
per-league scroll_settings.scroll_speed (px/s) form. Tests resolve the
printed pair over a schema-default pair and check it lands on the
advertised speed and hold.

* docs: withdraw the target_fps claim for sports_scroll; fix the Vegas speed formula

- SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md still presented honouring global target_fps as
  sports_scroll's added behaviour and its one user-visible gain; note that
  it was withdrawn because it had become a speed multiplier.
- ADVANCED_FEATURES.md gave Vegas scrolling as
  (scroll_speed / target_fps) * elapsed; the real rule is scroll_speed px/s
  by elapsed time, through a 0.1-5 px per scroll_delay clamp when
  frame_based_scrolling is on.

* fix(dev): link-github links plugins from the ledmatrix-plugins monorepo

link-github <name> cloned https://github.com/ChuckBuilds/ledmatrix-<name>.git,
and those per-plugin repositories no longer exist: official plugins are
directories in the ledmatrix-plugins monorepo. It now clones (or pulls) the
monorepo once into the dev directory, finds plugins/<name>,
plugins/ledmatrix-<name> or the plugin whose manifest id is <name>, and
links it under its manifest id. With an explicit repo URL it still links a
single-repository plugin as before.

dev_plugins.json: github_user is honoured again (monorepo owner, e.g. a
fork), plus plugins_repo and plugins_branch; github_pattern, which was
documented but never read, is dropped and warned about. Ships
dev_plugins.json.example and git-ignores dev_plugins.json, both of which
the guide promised. Reading JSON falls back to python3 when jq is missing
(get_plugin_id silently returned nothing without jq).

update/status/list find the git checkout above a monorepo plugin
directory (its .git is not in the plugin dir), and update pulls a shared
checkout once. status no longer exits 1 when nothing is broken.

Docs: PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT_GUIDE (quick start, link-github, configuration,
workflow, store integration, hello-world link, submission), and the
nonexistent scripts/git-hooks/pre-push-plugin-version and
scripts/bump_plugin_version.py replaced with the real rule: bump the
manifest version and run update_registry.py. scripts/dev/README.md and
CLAUDE.md updated to match.

* docs(scripts): monorepo workspace layout; fix_perms and install READMEs

MULTI_ROOT_WORKSPACE_SETUP described one sibling repository per plugin;
setup_plugin_repos.py links ../ledmatrix-plugins/plugins/* into
plugin-repos/ and update_plugin_repos.py pulls only the monorepo, and the
workspace file opens LEDMatrix plus ../ledmatrix-plugins.

scripts/fix_perms/README.md listed cache directories
fix_cache_permissions.sh never touches and a 'ledmatrix' service user
that doesn't exist (also in scripts/install/README.md); adds
safe_pip_install.sh. install/README: install_service.sh installs the web
and update-verify units too.

* fix(update): keep the rollback's pip retries inside the unit time limit

The health check reinstalled the previous requirements by trying the
next bash path after any failure, including a 600 s pip timeout. Two
files, two paths: up to 40 minutes of pip alone, while systemd stops
ledmatrix-update-verify.service at TimeoutStartSec=30min -- killing the
rollback half-way and leaving the update 'verifying' until the web UI
calls it lost.

- Like permission_utils.install_requirements_file, only a sudo refusal
  moves on to the next bash; a pip that ran and failed or timed out is
  not repeated. The refusal wording is one list
  (permission_utils.SUDO_REFUSAL_PHRASES), mirrored in the stdlib-only
  verifier and pinned equal by a test.
- All reinstalls in one rollback share a 600 s budget.
- WORST_CASE_SECONDS adds up every timeout on the longest path (27.5
  min); a test holds it under the unit's TimeoutStartSec and that under
  the web UI's VERIFY_LOST_SECONDS.

* fix(plugins): prepare plugin configs one way for load, saves, GET, hot reload and dev tools

Plugin config was prepared differently depending on how it arrived:

- JSON POST /plugins/config built a partial body on schema defaults, so
  {"enabled": true} reset every other setting of the plugin. It now merges
  onto the stored section first, as the form path already did.
- Legacy-boolean normalization (#588) ran only at load: GET /plugins/config
  returned the raw boolean, posting it back failed validation, and hot
  reload handed plugins the raw section (a legacy dynamic_duration: true
  came back as a boolean). schema_manager.prepare_plugin_config (normalize,
  then defaults) is now used by PluginManager.load_plugin, both save paths,
  GET, the save notifications and DisplayController's hot-reload callback.
- The JSON save's filter kept only enabled/display_duration/live_priority
  and dropped a submitted skin, skin_options or vegas_* tuning key. There
  is now one core-owned per-plugin list, schema_manager.CORE_PLUGIN_PROPERTIES,
  used by validation and by the save filter; PluginManager's
  CORE_OWNED_CONFIG_KEYS is its vegas subset.
- Plugin sections posted to /config/main were stored verbatim, including
  values /plugins/config rejects. They now go through the same preparation
  (_prepare_plugin_config_for_save, extracted from save_plugin_config), and
  a failing section rejects the whole save before anything is written.
- dev_server read only top-level defaults and let a schema enabled:false

It described web_interface_v2.py and index_v2.html (both gone), client-side
form generation, one POST per field with {key, value}, and 'no nested
objects'. The v3 UI renders plugin forms server-side from the schema
(pages_v3 partial + plugin_config.html macros, nested sections and
x-widgets), posts the whole form once, and save_plugin_config() merges onto
the stored section, validates, splits x-secret fields and notifies the
plugin.

The bridge README said brightness is applied on the display's next

only brightness (the /config/main merge fix in this change set).

On Linux Repo.publish() commits with -a, which recorded scripts/run.sh
as 100644 upstream because the seed file was never chmod +x. The pull
then brought in the same mode the installer chmod had made locally, so
installer_chmod saw no mode change left to check. The updater was fine:
with the upstream commit at 100755 the --autostash carries the device's
chmod across. Verified under Linux (WSL, git 2.43): the old helper fails
exactly as CI did, the fixed one passes all 63 tests in the file.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 1d51efe4c7 fix(backup): restore over existing files on hosts without os.chown (#592)
_copy_file() replaces each restored file and then carries the previous
owner across with os.chown. On Windows os.chown does not exist and
st_uid/st_gid are 0 rather than absent, so the ownership branch always
ran and raised AttributeError. That is not an OSError, so it escaped
every per-section handler in restore_backup(): a restore over any
existing config aborted at config.json and restored nothing.

Skip the ownership step where os.chown is missing, as
auto_update_setup.py already does. No change on POSIX.

test_restore_over_a_file_the_user_cannot_write simulates root-owned
files with chmod 0o444; on Windows that sets the read-only attribute,
which blocks any rename over the file, so it is skipped there. The
modes the app writes (0o644/0o640/0o600) replace fine on Windows.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 7ae614aa35 fix(sports): recover from ESPN rejecting scoreboard date ranges (#591)
* fix(sports): recover from ESPN rejecting scoreboard date ranges

Since 2026-09-15 ESPN's site API answers `dates=YYYYMMDD-YYYYMMDD` with
400 "Failed to get events endpoint." for every sport. Single days, months
(`YYYYMM`) and season years still work. Every season and weeks-window fetch
in core failed, including the background service the scoreboards submit
their season schedules to.

src/common/espn_dates.py re-asks a rejected range as whole-month chunks
plus the leftover edge days, which tile the window exactly (a season is
8 requests, not 213). A month that comes back with exactly 500 events is
truncated (college baseball's March) and is re-asked day by day.

It also clamps `limit` to 500: above that ESPN truncates silently, e.g.
college football returns 25 of 68 games for one Saturday at limit=1000.

BackgroundDataService recovers rejected ranges on the worker thread and
advertises `handles_espn_date_ranges` so plugins can tell whether to hand
it a range. SportsCore, sports_shared, ESPNDataSource and APIHelper route
through the helper or the clamped limit.

* docs(changelog): ESPN date-range fallback and limit clamp

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(sports): stop re-sending ESPN date ranges once one is rejected

Live scoreboards refresh every 30 seconds, and each refresh sent the range
first, got the 400, then fetched the chunks: three requests where one used
to do. After a rejection, ranges now go straight to chunks for six hours,
then the range is tried again so the workaround retires itself if ESPN
reverts. A single-day 400 does not set the memo, and when every chunk fails
the range request supplies the error without the chunks being fetched a
second time. Per-fetch chunk logging drops to debug; the rejection itself
stays a warning.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(sports): clamp limit only on ESPN scoreboard submissions

The background service is generic, and limit above 500 only truncates
scoreboards. /teams needs limit=1000 (college football has 762 teams and
limit=500 returns 500), so a teams submission must keep its limit.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 2082665252 fix(config): load config_secrets.json on hosts without os.geteuid (#590)
ensure_shared_group_ownership() - the chgrp self-heal ConfigManager runs
before reading config_secrets.json (#416) - looked up os.geteuid
unguarded. That name does not exist on Windows, and the AttributeError
is not an OSError, so it escaped the helper's best-effort handling and
every except clause in load_config(). Any Windows checkout with a
config/config_secrets.json got a ConfigError from every config load and
could not import web_interface.app.

That is what made test_update_all_plugins.py error at setup: its client
fixture imports web_interface.app. It was not state leaked between test
files - the trigger is whether the checkout has a secrets file.

Return early when os.geteuid or os.chown is missing. No change on POSIX.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 f9b3d6ae52 fix(web): accept every panel size and row address type the rgbmatrix library does (#586)
* fix(web): accept every panel size and row address type the rgbmatrix library does

The Display form capped columns at 128 and chain length at 24, and its
submit handler (fixInvalidNumberInputs) rewrote anything larger to the cap,
so wide panels and long chains silently saved as the wrong size. The config
API checked none of the hardware numbers, so values the library rejects (odd
rows, parallel 4, PWM dither bits 3) saved and the matrix then refused to
start.

- Form limits now match the pinned library: rows even 8-64, cols >= 16 and
  chain_length >= 1 with no upper bound, parallel 1-3, PWM dither bits 0-2,
  PWM LSB nanoseconds 50-3000.
- save_main_config rejects out-of-range rows, cols, chain_length, parallel,
  brightness, scan_mode, pwm_bits, pwm_dither_bits, pwm_lsb_nanoseconds and
  gpio_slowdown with a 400.
- A stored gpio_slowdown or pwm_dither_bits of 0 renders as 0 instead of the
  default, so saving the tab no longer overwrites it.
- Row Address Type offers 5 (SM5368 / B707 row shift register). Verified on a
  Waveshare 96x48 V2 (24S-A1) on a Pi 4 with the Adafruit Triple LED Matrix
  Bonnet: rows 48, cols 96, row address type 5, BGR, GPIO slowdown 8.
- Help text and docs: FM6124-family panels use Panel Type Standard; on a Pi 5
  the library supports only row address types 0 and 2.

No change to the rpi-rgb-led-matrix submodule.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(web): drop the rows cap and document every display setting accurately

Rows: no upper limit in the form or the API. Still even and at least 8. The
current rgbmatrix library rejects more than 64 per panel, so a larger value
saves but the matrix won't start; the help tip, README, config reference and
troubleshooting section all say so, and nothing here needs changing if the
library lifts the limit.

limit_refresh_rate_hz: the form accepts 0 (the library's "no cap"), a stored
0 no longer renders and re-saves as 120, and the API rejects negatives.

pwm_dither_bits stays 0-2: the library rejects 3 and 4, so the old form's
0-4 only ever let users save a config the display couldn't start with.

Docs and help tips, checked against the pinned library and its README:
- panel_type and rp1_rio get README entries
- show_refresh_rate prints to stdout; it never drew on the panel
- dither bits raise the refresh rate; the tip said they lowered it
- scan_mode is about interlacing at low refresh, not wrong colours
- disable_hardware_pulsing: hardware pulsing needs OE on GPIO 18 and the
  onboard sound driver off; software timing makes rows flash brighter
- gpio_slowdown guidance agrees between the README and the UI
- all 22 multiplexing values listed; every numeric setting states its range
- troubleshooting for a blank panel after a settings change, jumping rows
  and brightness flashes

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(web): reject true and 5.5 for row_address_type and multiplexing

Both still went straight through int(), so a JSON true saved as 1 and 5.5
as 5. They now use the shared hardware range check like the other panel
fields. Review feedback on #586.

Also: the RP1 Backend tooltip said it is ignored on Pi 3/4 (it is ignored
on every model but the Pi 5), and the README gave the dynamic-duration
default cap as 90s; the code default is 180s.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: refuse matrix settings a Raspberry Pi 5 can't drive

On a Pi 5 the pinned rgbmatrix library drives the panel through the RP1
chip, and that path supports only row address types 0 and 2, parallel 1-3
and the regular / regular-pi1 / classic / adafruit-hat(-pwm) mappings
(Rp1PioConfigSupported in lib/rp1/rp1_pio_backend.cc). For anything else
CreateFromOptions returns NULL; the Python binding doesn't check, so the
display process crashed on its first call into the matrix and systemd
restarted it into the same crash every 10 seconds.

- src/pi5_matrix_support.py: the rule and Pi 5 detection, matching the
  library's /proc/device-tree/model check
- DisplayManager raises before creating the matrix, so it is a logged init
  failure (reported by /api/v3/hardware/status) and fallback mode
- the config API rejects those settings on a Pi 5 when a request sets
  row_address_type, parallel or hardware_mapping
- the Display form offers only row address types 0 and 2 on a Pi 5, and
  warns when a stored value can't be used
- CLAUDE.md: re-check the rule whenever the submodule is bumped

Review feedback on #586.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 9616a5a054 fix(web): auto_update and other core settings are not orphaned plugins (#589)
v3.4.0 shows "Plugin Config Warning - In config but not installed:
auto_update. Reinstall via the Plugin Store, or remove these entries from
config.json." auto_update is the core weekly-update setting from #581.
Reconciliation treated every top-level dict not in its private
_SYSTEM_CONFIG_KEYS list as a plugin id, and #581 could not know to extend
that list.

- Move core top-level keys into src/core_config_keys.py (CORE_CONFIG_KEYS)
  and use it in reconciliation. Tests fail if a config.template.json key or
  a key written by the general-settings save is missing from it.
- A secrets-file key only counts as a non-plugin when no installed plugin
  has that id. Plugin secrets are namespaced by id, so installed plugins
  with secrets were reported as missing from config on every run.
- still_unresolved() drops "not on disk" findings whose id is no longer a
  plugin entry in config, so a stored verdict clears without a restart.
- A plugin whose id is a core key is skipped with a warning, and the fix
  never writes a plugin stub over or in place of a core setting.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 c200b5837d fix(plugins): normalize legacy boolean settings before schema validation (#588)
The news plugin's schema turned global.dynamic_duration from a boolean
into an {enabled, min_duration_seconds, ...} object. Installs that have
not saved the news settings since still hold `true`, so every start
logged "Plugin news config does not match its schema (loading anyway):
Field 'global.dynamic_duration': Expected type object, got bool" and
flagged news degraded.

The settings form already reads such a boolean as {"enabled": <bool>}
(render_nested_section in plugin_config.html) and the next save writes
the object. The loader did not. It now applies the same rule before
merging schema defaults and validating, so the defaults fill in the rest
of the object and the plugin receives it in the new shape.

The rule lives in schema_manager.legacy_bool_as_object /
normalize_legacy_booleans. It applies at any depth of nested objects
but not inside arrays, matching the form, and only to a real bool under
an object-typed property with an `enabled` child. Every other mismatch
still warns. A parity test renders the template macro against the helper
so the two cannot drift.

Nothing is written to config.json at load: the normalization is in
memory, and the next save of the plugin's settings persists the object.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 9f2743471c fix(web): update-all skips Starlark apps and no longer misses plugins (#587)
* fix(web): update-all skips Starlark apps and no longer misses plugins

Check & Update All posted every entry from /plugins/installed to
POST /plugins/update, including the virtual starlark:<app_id> entries
that list installed Starlark apps. The store manager cannot find those,
so each answered 500 "plugin not found". Update-all now sends only
plugin ids (install_manager.js, and the older app-shell.js copy), and the
route answers a starlark: id with a 400 saying it is a Starlark app.

A request that got no HTTP answer was recorded as failed and never sent
again. On a device, a web-service restart mid-run killed the in-flight
request and refused the next one, stock-news, which was left on 2.6.2
with 2.8.0 available. Such requests are now re-sent with backoff
(about 30s) before being reported as failed. HTTP error answers are not
retried.

Tests: test/js/unit/test_update_all.js (run from pytest via
test/web_interface/test_update_all_plugins.py so CI covers it) and the
route contract for starlark: ids.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 fddb0e06db feat(web): honour x-display: hidden in plugin settings (#585)
* feat(web): honour x-display: hidden in plugin settings

Plugins keep deprecated and internal keys declared so stored configs keep
validating (weather api_key/radar_zoom, countdown's auto-generated row id),
but the settings form drew them as live controls.

A property marked "x-display": "hidden" -- or an object whose children are
all hidden -- now gets no control at any depth: top level, nested sections,
Advanced Settings (not counted either), array-table columns and the row
editor. A hidden top-level key is not reported in __rendered_section.

Saving never changes a hidden value. Plain and nested fields aren't posted,
so the save's deep merge keeps them; _set_missing_booleans_to_false skips
hidden booleans at every depth. A posted array row replaces the stored item,
so hidden row properties are carried as JSON-encoded hidden inputs and
decoded exactly on save (an id "1" stays a string). New rows get none.
JSON API saves are unchanged.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(web): read hidden row keys without dynamic property access

Build the set of x-display: hidden item properties once and look values up
through Object.entries, instead of indexing objects by a variable key on
the lines this branch added (Codacy: object injection sink, 6 warnings).
Behaviour is unchanged.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 8360220809 feat(common): sports_helpers — the helpers all nine scoreboards carry identical copies of (#583)
* feat(common): sports_helpers, the helpers all nine scoreboards copy verbatim

Add src/common/sports_helpers.py: the helpers the scoreboard plugins'
sports.py carry byte-identical copies of (docstring-stripped AST, checked at
ledmatrix-plugins f09bff2), so a later plugins PR can delete its copies once
it floors on the core release that ships this.

- Free functions: clamp_window, clamp_seconds, logo_needs_refresh (lazy
  src.logo_downloader import, as in the plugins), spread_weighted_order,
  MIN_WINDOW_DAYS / MAX_WINDOW_DAYS. All nine plugins.
- SportsHelpersMixin (no __init__, stateless): _mode_customization,
  _setting_int, _reset_dwell_on_reentry, _next_switch_index,
  _spread_weighted_order (all nine), _odds_color and
  _upcoming_date_and_time_text (all but ufc), plus the _favorite_key seam
  from base_classes core.py for later phases.

A new module rather than more methods on sports_shared: a plugin that
deletes a copy and relies on an existing module having grown the method
fails at runtime with AttributeError on an older core, which neither the
loader nor check_min_core_version.py can see; a missing module fails at load.

Tests: behaviour for every helper, a derived host contract, and a parity
test that AST-compares every body against every plugin copy when
LEDMATRIX_PLUGINS points at a checkout (skipped otherwise).
test_common_is_hardware_free.py imports src.common and every sports_* module
with rgbmatrix blocked and scans src/common for module-level imports of
src.base_classes, src.display_manager and src.plugin_system (no existing
violations).

Nothing in core imports the new module; no behaviour change. CHANGELOG
Unreleased entry and a converging note in docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md.
__version__ is not bumped.

* fix(common): address review on sports_helpers and the hardware-free test

- SportsHelpersMixin docstring and CHANGELOG: constructor-free, but it keeps
  lazy state on its host (_reset_dwell_on_reentry, _next_switch_index).
- test_common_is_hardware_free: the runtime check now filters every
  FORBIDDEN package, src.plugin_system included; the AST scan resolves
  relative imports against src.common, so `from .. import plugin_system`
  and `from ..plugin_system import x` are caught. Guard tests for both.
- Parity skip reason names the CI guard that runs the same comparison:
  ledmatrix-plugins scripts/check_sports_helpers_parity.py (#495).
- _odds_color: line-level pylint disable for a not-callable false positive
  (getter is None-checked); the AST is unchanged, parity still passes.

* docs(changelog): complete 3.4.0 with weekly auto-updates and scroll timing fix

#581 (weekly automatic updates) and #582 (scroll frame-stats idle gap)
merged after the 3.4.0 section was written in #580. v3.4.0 will be tagged
on main including both, so they belong in 3.4.0.

Also record src.common.font_layout (#539, #565), a src.* module plugins
may import that shipped in 3.4.0 but was never listed, and mark
display_geometry and auto_update_setup as core-internal.

Correct the 3.3.0 historical note: remote tags v3.3.0 (bc2dbf38) and
v3.3.1 (32d637a4) both report "3.3.0" and both ship sports_shared.py.
The "3.2.0" claim came from a stale local tag.

but not the rest of what merged since v3.3.1. Group it under subheadings:
Install and updates, Scrolling, Plugins, Web interface, Tools and
security, Fixes, and put the existing customization block under its own
heading.

Omitted on purpose: #569 (fixes a regression and an editor race in the

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 814c21de1c chore: mark skins unsupported, fix stale docs and preview size, prepare 3.4.0 (#580)
* chore: mark skins unsupported, fix stale docs and preview size, prepare 3.4.0

Skins: no current scoreboard plugin builds on src.base_classes, so the only
skin hook (SportsCore._render_game) never runs. The plugin schema endpoint no
longer injects the Visual Skin dropdown, the store hides and refuses
"type": "skin" registry entries, and GET /api/v3/skins reports
supported: false with a message. Stored skin config still loads and saves.
src/skin_system/ and its tests are unchanged apart from the support flag.

Docs: check_plugin.py/render_plugin.py examples use --plugin; document
BasePlugin.get_update_interval() and its interaction with the manifest
update_interval; CLAUDE.md drops the stale template line number and
recommends display_manager.width/height.

Preview size: new src/display_geometry.py holds the size computation and
defaults DisplayManager uses (double-sided applied, chain_length default 2).
The web preview, /display/current, Starlark magnify default, sync handshake
and two dev scripts use it.

Release: __version__ 3.4.0, CHANGELOG 3.4.0 section plus a 3.3.0 tag note.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: address CodeRabbit review on #580

- Preview fallbacks (SSE stream and /display/current) use logical_size({})
  (128x32, the shared default) instead of a hard-coded 128x64.
- display_geometry treats a non-mapping display/hardware block as missing,
  so a malformed config.json falls back to defaults instead of raising
  AttributeError (which turned the Starlark render into an HTTP 500).
- Docs: the static update interval falls back manifest -> plugin config
  -> 60s, in both the API reference and the architecture spec.

Not taken: validating double_sided copies against chain_length/parallel.
An orientation Rotate: or U-mapper pixel mapper decides which axis panels
lie on, so the counts would reject working setups (the existing
vertical-split test is one).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(display_geometry): a non-finite hardware size raises ValueError, not OverflowError

CodeRabbit flagged the Starlark magnify default in
_standalone_render_starlark_app for truthy non-mapping display values. That
case was already handled by a9e1bd0b (_display/_hardware treat a non-mapping
block as missing, covered by test_non_mapping_display_config_uses_the_defaults),
and the magnify it produces from the 128x32 defaults is the same as from 64x32.

Checking the same path found one input that still escaped: Python's JSON
parser accepts Infinity, and int(inf) raises OverflowError, which neither the
Starlark path (TypeError, ValueError) nor the preview stream in app.py caught,
so a hand-edited "rows": Infinity returned HTTP 500. physical_size now raises
ValueError for it, matching its documented contract, so every caller's
existing fallback applies. DisplayManager already caught Exception.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 69d408b321 feat(core): one per-element display-customization framework, wired into the web UI (#566)
* fix(sports): rebuild un-shared faces through the pinned layout engine

unshare_element_fonts re-instantiates a duplicate font face so two
elements can be told apart by id(). It did so through bare
ImageFont.truetype, which takes PIL's default layout engine rather than
the one src/common/font_layout.py pins. Raqm and Basic disagree on
fractional advances -- that disagreement is the reason the pin exists,
having broken golden images across machines -- so a rebuilt face could
measure differently from the shared face it replaced, on any host where
Raqm is installed.

These were the only two call sites in src/ bypassing the pin.

The guard asserts that the rebuild goes through the pinned loader rather
than comparing engine values: where Raqm is absent, bare truetype returns
BASIC anyway, so an engine comparison passes whether or not the pin is
honoured. The first draft of this test did exactly that and passed with
the bug reintroduced.

* refactor(web): drop the two dead client-side config-form renderers

generateConfigForm and generateSimpleConfigForm (580 lines) were defined
on the Alpine component and never called: server-side Jinja replaced them,
as pages_v3.py:641 records. Nothing in any template invokes them -- there
is no x-html in the templates and no bracket access on the component.

They carried their own x-widget dispatch, which made them an active trap:
the next person adding a widget would reasonably think both renderers
needed updating.

plugins/config_manager.js (PluginConfigManager, 133 lines) goes for the
same reason -- loaded on every page from base.html, referenced only by
itself and by an archived doc.

Kept, having checked them: widgets/example-color-picker.js is the worked
example docs/widget-guide.md points plugin authors at, and
widgets/plugin-loader.js is the client half of a documented feature
(manifest-declared plugin widgets) whose server route is missing --
soccer-scoreboard already ships a widgets/custom-leagues.js that this
loader is meant to fetch. That is an unfinished feature to complete, not
dead code to delete.

* feat(web): serve plugin-declared widgets, and actually ask for them

LEDMatrixWidgets.loadPluginWidget has always fetched
/static/plugin-widgets/<plugin>/<widget>.js, and docs/widget-guide.md has
always documented that path, but nothing served it. soccer-scoreboard has
shipped a 17KB widgets/custom-leagues.js since August that could never
load. Both halves were missing, not just the route:

- serve_plugin_widget serves the script from the plugin's widgets/
  directory as text/javascript. The manifest is the allowlist -- only a
  widget the plugin declares is reachable -- so installing a plugin does
  not publish everything it ships. Path handling mirrors the sibling
  serve_plugin_web_ui: allowlist regexes, os.path.basename, resolve() +
  relative_to() containment, and the ledmatrix- prefix fallback. The
  declared script name is guarded too, since it comes from the plugin
  rather than the request.

- The config form never requested one. Its x-widget dispatch is a
  hardcoded list of core widget names, so a plugin's own widget fell
  through to a plain text input. An unrecognised x-widget on a string
  field now asks ensureWidget() for it. The text input stays as the
  fallback and is removed only once the widget has actually rendered, so
  a missing or broken widget costs the user an editor rather than their
  configured value on the next save.

- manifest_schema.json gains "widgets", so the declaration is validated
  rather than merely tolerated by additionalProperties.

Verified in a browser against the real partial: a declared widget loads,
registers and renders, and its field posts exactly one value; a field
whose widget 404s keeps its text input and still posts its value.

Not addressed: loadPluginWidgetsFromManifest still has no caller. The
per-field ensureWidget path is lazier and is what the form now uses, so
that bulk helper is dead weight -- worth removing, but left alone here
rather than inventing a call site for it.

Known limitation, documented: only string-typed fields take this path.
object/array/boolean/number fields and enums are dispatched by the
template's own branches, which still only know core widgets.

* fix(element-style): a wrong-size BDF now keeps its font, not its size

BDF fonts are fixed-size bitmap strikes: FreeType accepts only the pixel
size baked into the file and raises for anything else. 32 of the 35
shipped fonts are BDF, so a size picked in the web UI usually is not a
valid strike -- and load_font caught that failure with its generic
"unloadable font" handler, which substitutes PressStart2P. Asking for
5x7.bdf at size 10 therefore rendered a completely different typeface,
silently.

It now falls back to the file's own native size instead, which is what
SportsCore._load_custom_font_from_element_config has always done. The
native size is read via FontManager._read_bdf_native_size rather than a
fourth copy of that parser, matching how core.py already delegates.

Also here, because they are the same code path:

- native_bdf_size() is exposed for the web UI, which needs to know when a
  size field can take effect at all. None means "free choice".
- ElementStyle.font_size now reports the size actually realised rather
  than the one requested. Callers lay out from it, and reserving space
  for a size nothing was drawn at is how this surfaces.
- The module font cache is a bounded LRU (256) instead of an unbounded
  dict. The display process runs for weeks and every config save can add
  a (font, size) pair; every other hot cache in the codebase is bounded
  this way.

Untouched configs are unaffected: the shipped classic fonts are the three
TTFs, so nothing was hitting the substitution path by default.

* feat(element-style): per-mode style and offset overrides

Lets one element be styled differently per situation -- a scoreboard's
live / upcoming / recent cards, weather's current / hourly / daily
screens -- under customization.modes.<mode>.

The mode is bound at construction rather than passed per call. That is
what makes this cheap to adopt: SportsUpcoming and SportsRecent are
already separate instances with distinct SKIN_MODE values, so binding
once makes every existing style()/offset_value() call site mode-aware
without editing any of them. A per-call mode argument exists for the rare
host that renders more than one mode.

The two layers answer different questions, deliberately:

- The base layer keeps the existing "differs from the schema default"
  rule, because the save flow writes the full default object into
  config.json whether or not the user touched it.
- A mode layer is pure override -- its fields default to None, so
  presence is intent. Nothing writes into it unasked, so there is nothing
  for the stricter rule to protect against.

None therefore means inherit, and has to stay distinct from 0: a mode
y_offset of 0 means "sit at the base position", not "no preference".
This is the same distinction scroll_card.switch_* draws with "inherit".

A malformed mode value falls back to the resolved base value rather than
to the caller's default -- caught by the degradation tests, which is what
they are for: resolving the mode first let one bad string in a mode block
silently discard a good base offset.

With no modes block, and for every existing caller, resolution is
unchanged.

* feat(element-style): declare per-mode overrides in config_schema.json

A plugin adds "x-style-modes": ["live", "upcoming", "recent"] alongside
its x-style-elements declaration and gets a customization.modes.<mode>
group per mode, with every field of every declared element repeated as an
override.

Those override fields are typed nullable and default to null, which is
the whole trick. The save flow writes schema defaults into config.json
wholesale, so giving a mode field the base element's default would make
every mode a frozen copy of the base the first time a user pressed Save,
and the base would stop reaching them. Null means inherit. The mutation
test for this is explicit: with concrete defaults, a base font_size of 14
resolves as 10 with user_forced set.

min/max from the declaration carry into the mode blocks, so an
out-of-range override is rejected by validation rather than clamped
silently at render time.

Also: the emitted font field now carries "x-widget": "font-selector". The
widget already shipped and the config form already allowlisted it -- the
hint was simply never emitted, so the field rendered as a bare text box
that the user had to type a font filename into.

Verified through the real SchemaManager path -- load_schema, defaults
extraction, merge_with_defaults, validation, then resolution -- rather
than against a hand-built dict, since the thing at risk is what that
pipeline does to a null.

* fix(web): render the config form from the schema the save route validates

The form read config_schema.json with a raw json.load while
api_v3.save_plugin_config went through SchemaManager. Those are not the
same schema: SchemaManager applies expand_style_elements, which turns a
compact customization.x-style-elements declaration into the per-element
blocks the form knows how to render.

Without it, that customization object has an x-style-elements key and no
"properties", so the template's object branch matched nothing and the
section rendered as empty space -- while saving still validated against
the expanded shape. of-the-day ships the compact form, so its
customization section has been invisible in the web UI.

pages_v3 gains a schema_manager the way it already has config_manager and
plugin_manager. use_cache=False matches the save route, so an edited
schema is not served stale during plugin development. The raw read stays
as a fallback for callers that register this blueprint without one.

Checked before making the change: load_schema does nothing here except
read, validate and expand -- inject_skin_selector is a separate method it
does not call -- so this is not a behaviour change for schemas without
the declaration.

The test pair renders the same compact schema with and without a
SchemaManager, so it documents exactly what was broken as well as what is
fixed.

* feat(web): style-editor widget -- a row per element instead of 65 accordions

Rendered element by element, a realistic scoreboard's customization block
is 65 nested sections, and reaching one per-mode font size takes five
levels of expanding. The widget collapses that to one compact row per
element -- font, size, colour, X, Y -- with a tab per declared mode.

It emits ordinary inputs under the same dotted names the generic renderer
would produce, so the save/validate/merge pipeline is untouched: no hidden
JSON blob and no new server-side parsing. It is driven entirely by the
schema block it is handed, so fields added to the schema later appear
without editing the widget. If it fails to load or throws, the generic
nested rendering it replaces is left in place.

Fixing two things the save path got wrong for nullable fields, found by
posting what the widget actually emits:

- The indexed-array recombiner (text_color.0/.1/.2 -> one list) compared
  the declared type to the string 'array', so a per-mode colour, typed
  ["array", "null"], was never reassembled and failed validation on save.
  _parse_form_value_with_schema had the same comparison.
- A blank nullable field became [] rather than None, which then failed the
  minItems the colour array declares. Null is the inherit sentinel, so it
  has to survive.

And two things the widget itself got wrong, found by looking at it:

- An unset base control fell back to the select's first option, so an
  untouched scoreboard claimed every element used 10x20.bdf -- and the
  size box then locked itself to that bitmap font's fixed size. Base
  controls now show the schema default; mode controls stay blank, because
  blank there means inherit.
- Elements arrived alphabetised (Detail and Odds above Score). Flask's
  JSON provider sorts keys, so declaration order has to be stated
  explicitly; expand_style_elements now emits x-propertyOrder, which the
  generic renderer already honoured too.

Size is disabled and shown as fixed for a bitmap font, using the
scalable/native_size the font catalog now reports.

* feat(element-style): visibility, alignment and scale per element

Completes the customization vocabulary: hide an element, align it, and
resize a logo, alongside the font/size/colour/offset that already existed.
All three per mode.

They resolve to "change nothing" until the user asks for something -- True,
None and 1.0 -- rather than to whatever the schema declares. That is the
same invariant the font fields keep: a caller that honours them still
renders an untouched config exactly as it did before they existed. A
schema default therefore does not count as a choice, which matters because
the save flow writes that default into config either way.

scale sits in the layout block with the offsets rather than in the element
block, because it is geometry: a logo has a scale and no font. The widget's
columns come from the schema, so a logo row shows visibility, offsets and
scale and no empty font cell.

Two bugs found by the tests rather than by reading:

- A nullable enum needs null in its enum list, not just in its type. The
  mode copy of `align` defaulted to null and then failed its own schema, so
  a plugin declaring any enum field with modes could not save at all. Six
  tests failed on this before any of them reached what they were testing.
- defaults_from_schema only ever extracted font/font_size/text_color, so
  the schema defaults for the new fields were invisible to the resolver and
  a declared default read as a user choice.

Widget: the table scrolls horizontally and pins the element-name column.
Nine columns do not fit the config panel, and clipping them hid the offsets
entirely while scrolling them made every row anonymous.

* feat(element-style): resolve elements under the names plugins actually use

Two naming conventions collided as the scoreboards grew. Counted across
the published schemas: the style block names elements with a _text suffix
(score_text, status_text, detail_text), while the layout block mostly uses
the bare noun (score, date, time, odds) -- except status_text, which kept
the suffix in seven plugins and lost it in two. records vs record splits
seven to two the same way.

A lookup now tries the exact name first and then the spellings that mean
the same thing. Exact-first is what makes this inert for any config that
already matches; the aliases only decide cases that resolved to nothing
before.

This is also what makes migrating to the compact declaration form safe.
That form uses one key for both blocks, so a scoreboard adopting it asks
for layout.score_text while its users have layout.score saved -- without
the aliases, every offset they had dialled in would silently become 0.

Applies to the style block, the layout block, the schema defaults and the
per-mode overrides, since the drift shows up in all four.

Not attempting to canonicalise on write: renaming keys in config.json
would break the plugins still reading the old spelling from their own
bundled code, and the drift costs a dict miss rather than correctness.

* feat(plugins): BasePlugin.styles -- per-element styling every plugin inherits

Adopting the element-style system meant repeating three things in every
plugin: a guarded import, finding its own config_schema.json, and
rebuilding the resolver when on_config_change swapped the config dict.
This is those three things once, on the class all 45 plugins already
inherit from.

    title = self.styles.style('title_text',
                              classic_font='PressStart2P-Regular.ttf',
                              classic_size=8, classic_color=(255, 255, 255))

The classic_* arguments are the adoption contract: with nothing configured
they come back verbatim, so a plugin that switches to this renders exactly
as before until a user changes something.

A plugin with one instance per display mode sets STYLE_MODE on the class
and every existing lookup becomes mode-aware without a call site changing
-- which is the point of binding the mode to the resolver rather than
passing it per call. styles_for() covers a plugin that renders several
modes from one instance.

Schema discovery reads the concrete class's own module rather than this
file, because this file lives in src/plugin_system where no plugin schema
exists -- the same trap SportsCore._config_schema_path documents. The
first mutation test for that passed anyway: an installed plugin's module
directory and its entry under plugins_dir are the same path, so the test
could not tell the two apart. The case where they diverge is a plugin
symlinked in for development, and the test now forces that shape.

Getting discovery wrong is silent rather than loud: with no schema the
resolver has no defaults to compare against, so every configured value
reads as a deliberate override and the plugin quietly stops honouring its
own shipped styling.

* feat(element-style): adopt hand-written customization blocks, and widen the font list

Nineteen plugins spell their style elements out longhand instead of
declaring them -- football's block is 701 lines for seven elements -- and
predate this system entirely. Core now recognises that shape, so they pick
up the row-per-element editor and the real font picker on a core update
rather than on a plugin release. Checked against every published schema:
21 plugins adopt, and the defaults of each still validate against the
schema generated for it.

Detection requires *every* field in a block to be one this system
understands. A looser "has at least one style field" rule sweeps in
baseball's `count`, which carries a text_color beside geometry that means
nothing here. That distinction took three attempts to test: the first two
assertions passed under both rules, because an over-eager rule leaves a
fontless block looking untouched and only surfaces as an extra row in the
editor.

The hardcoded font enum is replaced rather than extended. Football lists
five of the thirty-five installed fonts, which is why a font a user
uploads can never appear in one. It is not a curated safe set -- it omits
some twenty other faces that fit the declared size cap just as well -- it
is the fonts that happened to exist when it was written.

Widening it does need a guard, though, and not the one the schema already
has: a bitmap font ignores font_size and renders at its size baked into
the file, so `maximum: 16` cannot stop a 27px face. The picker now filters
out fixed-size fonts taller than the element's own declared ceiling, which
drops exactly the four that would overflow a 32px panel and keeps the
other thirty.

Per-mode overrides stay opt-in: core cannot invent a plugin's display
modes, so `x-style-modes` remains the one line that unlocks them. Their
layout half covers every positionable element rather than only those with
a style block -- the two namespaces do not line up in a hand-written
schema, and football positions six things (logos, timeouts, possession)
that have no style block at all.

* refactor(web): remove the two Fonts-tab panels that reported invented data

"Element Font Overrides" let a user configure an override, showed a
success toast, and changed nothing. All three endpoints behind it were
stubs -- GET returned a hardcoded {}, POST and DELETE returned success
without calling anything -- each marked "This would integrate with the
actual font system".

Wiring them to FontManager would not have fixed it. The machinery there is
real (_load_overrides/_save_overrides persist config/font_overrides.json,
resolve_font applies them, and the countdown plugin genuinely consumes
it), but the panel's element dropdown offered eleven invented keys --
nfl.live.score, clock.time, weather.current -- that no plugin has ever
read. An override saved against one of those would have persisted
correctly and still done nothing.

"Detected Manager Fonts" goes for the same reason. It claimed to show
"fonts currently in use by managers (auto-detected)"; its own comment said
"we'll simulate this", and it listed every font in the catalog with a
hardcoded usage_count of 1 -- the panel beside it, with fabricated
numbers attached.

Per-element font choice now lives in each plugin's own config editor,
against the elements that plugin actually has, and covers size, colour,
offsets, visibility, alignment and scale rather than family and size.

Kept: the font library (upload, preview, delete), which works, and
/fonts/tokens, which is a stub but genuinely feeds the preview's size
dropdown. FontManager's override methods are untouched -- countdown uses
them.

Verified in a browser with the tab's JS running: no console errors, 35
fonts listed, upload and preview intact. Removing the panel meant unwiring
it from populateFontSelects too, which would otherwise have bailed out
early on the missing select and left the preview dropdown empty.

* refactor(sports): one reader for element colours and layout offsets

There were two copies of the per-element colour read and three of the
layout-offset read. They had already drifted -- the scroll-card renderer
carries a comment about having ignored offsets its own schema advertised
-- and each new capability had to be added to all of them or silently work
in some places and not others.

All of them now go through src.element_style, which is what carries the
alias handling and the per-mode lookup. That lands immediately for the
nine plugins importing these modules: a scoreboard asking for `score_text`
offsets finds the `layout.score` its users configured, and a Live instance
resolves its own colours through SKIN_MODE without any call site passing a
mode.

_normalize_color learned "#RRGGBB" in the process. The scoreboards' own
readers have always accepted it, so the shared one had to, or consolidating
would have quietly dropped a form users' configs may hold. _coerce_offset
picked up the non-finite guard the scroll-card reader had and the other two
did not.

_get_layout_offset is promoted onto SportsCoreSharedMixin. Each plugin
still carries its own copy in its bundled sports.py, which wins by MRO --
so adopting this is a deletion in the plugin, and until that deletion
nothing changes for it.

Note for whoever runs the suite next: test_display_dirty_tracking.py is
order-dependent. Fifteen of its tests failed in one full run and passed in
the next with no change in between, and pass in isolation. Pre-existing,
unrelated to this, but it makes a full-run diff untrustworthy until it is
fixed.

* docs(changelog): record the element-style work under Unreleased

This file's own preamble asks for it: a plugin may delete its bundled
fallback copy of a core module only when its manifest floors on the first
release that shipped that module, which requires the additions to be
recorded here against a version.

Names a plugin can now import and floor on -- the stateless layout_offset
and element_color readers, alias_keys, native_bdf_size, the resolver's mode
binding, BasePlugin.styles, and the promoted
SportsCoreSharedMixin._get_layout_offset -- plus the schema and web-UI
changes, the four fixes and the three removals.

* fix(fonts): log the BDF native-size read failure instead of swallowing it

The bdf-native-size lookup in get_fonts_catalog() caught any exception
and silently discarded it. Every other guarded read added in this PR
(the manifest parse in _declared_widget_script, the SchemaManager
fallback in _load_plugin_config_partial) logs before falling through
to the same degraded behavior. This one didn't, which is the shape a
silent-exception-swallow lint rule flags. Behavior is unchanged --
native_size still comes back None -- but a corrupt or unreadable BDF
file now leaves a trace.

Verified: font-related tests (140) and the full suite still pass,
with only the 2 pre-existing Europe/Kiev/Asia/Calcutta tzdata-alias
failures already present on origin/main.

* fix: address CodeRabbit findings on the style-editor/font-selector PR

- Fix _load_font_sized double-wrapping the (font, size) tuple on the
  missing-font path, which handed callers a tuple instead of a font.
- Fix _set_nested_value skipping an explicit None when the key already
  existed, which silently kept stale overrides when a user cleared a
  nullable per-mode field or blanked all channels of an indexed color.
- Preserve BDF scalable/native_size metadata through fetchFontCatalog's
  catalog-format mapping so maxFixedSize filtering actually applies.
- Stop caching an empty array on a failed font-catalog fetch so a later
  call can retry instead of being stuck with the failed result.
- Keep a saved font selected in the style editor even when it no longer
  fits a newly declared maxFixedSize, instead of silently deselecting it.
- Don't drop in-progress user edits to fallback fields when a plugin
  widget finishes loading asynchronously and takes over the form.
- Tighten the removed font-override endpoint test to assert 405, not
  just != 200.

* fix(web): a partial save no longer switches off checkboxes it never showed

An HTML checkbox posts nothing when unchecked, so the save route walked the
schema and forced every boolean missing from the form to False. That is right
for the rendered form and wrong for every other caller: a script, the MQTT
bridge or a curl against the documented endpoint never rendered a checkbox, and
reading its silence as "all off" turns a one-field save into a mass disable.

Found on hardware. Posting four customization.* keys to a live device switched
off nfl.enabled, ncaa_fb.enabled and every display-mode toggle in one request.

The form now reports the top-level sections it drew (__rendered_section), and
inside those an absent checkbox still means unchecked -- including a section
whose only fields are checkboxes that are all off, which no heuristic could
recover. A post with no marker only touches objects it actually posted a field
from. Meta fields are dropped before form keys are treated as config paths,
because unknown keys are otherwise written straight into config.json.

* feat(sports): resolve element colour by name, and honour visible/align/scale

Two of the three gaps this framework shipped with.

Colour by name. A draw resolved its colour by comparing the *identity* of the
font object it was handed, which cannot tell two elements apart when they share
a face -- so those draws went out white. Every bitmap font is in that case,
because a freetype.Face cannot be re-instantiated to un-share it, which is how
an element rendered in any of the 32 shipped BDF fonts silently lost a colour
its picker had offered all along. _draw_text_with_outline now takes
element="score_text" and reads the colour by name; the identity path remains
for un-annotated callers, but narrows before giving up -- one configured colour
among the sharers is the only thing the user can have meant.

Visible, align and scale. The resolver has understood these since the
framework landed and nothing consumed them: an element could be marked hidden
in the web UI and still render. Adds the stateless readers, the mixin
accessors, and a scale parameter on the one shared logo-sizing seam (keyed into
the cache, so two elements scaled differently cannot be served each other's
image). Naming an element in a draw also honours its visibility.

Untouched configs are unaffected: every new parameter defaults to today's
behaviour, and all ten affected plugins render pixel-identically to main across
every harness size.

* docs(plugins): how to declare styleable elements; harden the widget's lookups

The plugin-author guide for the compact x-style-elements declaration -- what
each key does, how to read values back without breaking the "user-forced only
when it differs from the default" rule, and why a hand-written block needs no
changes to be adopted.

Also clears the static-analysis findings on style-editor.js. Every lookup in
that file is keyed by something out of a schema or a saved config, so a key of
__proto__ or constructor would walk the prototype chain and hand back a
function instead of a schema; reads now go through an own-property helper. The
panel registry became a list, and the flagged vars moved to their function
roots.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(web): clear the remaining static-analysis findings

Five, all on lines this branch touched.

The Python one is not a new defect: _set_missing_booleans_to_false's first
parameter was always named `config`, which shadows the `config` submodule
imported for its side effects at the bottom of this module. Editing the
signature simply put the existing warning on a changed line. The parameter is
the plugin's config dict, so `plugin_config` is what it should have been called
anyway; callers pass it positionally and are unaffected.

The JavaScript ones are the object-injection rule firing on reads keyed by
data. own() now goes through a property descriptor, so the one unavoidable
data-keyed read is no longer a computed member access; at() consumes its path
instead of indexing it; and the column set is a Map, which has no prototype to
pollute and needs no guarded reads at all.

Verified the widget still renders identically against football's real schema:
29 element rows, all four mode tabs, values populated, no console errors.

Chuck cb0545ecb3 release: report 3.3.0, so the version the gate reads matches the tag (#516)
v3.3.0 is tagged, but src/__init__.py still says "3.2.0" -- and that string,
not the git tag, is what the compatibility gate compares
(store_manager.py: `from src import __version__ as core_version`).

The effect is that every plugin flooring at 3.3.0 is refused on a device
running 3.3.0. Checked against the real gate and the real manifest:

    core __version__ reported to the gate : 3.2.0
    hockey floor                          : 3.3.0
    verdict                               : REFUSE
      "supports LEDMatrix >=3.3.0, but this system is running 3.2.0"

That is all eight sports scoreboards plus calendar 1.2.3, and it would read as
a broken plugin store rather than a stale constant.

The TRUSTWORTHY_FLOOR escape hatch does not cover this: it exempts cores
reporting below 2.0.0 as "unknown rather than old", and 3.2.0 is above it, so
the number is trusted and compared.

This is the same slip as v3.1.0, which was tagged six weeks before its version
string was bumped and shipped __version__ = "1.0.0" -- the reason that escape
hatch exists at all.

With the bump, the same gate call returns ALLOW for hockey at both the
sports_card and sports_shared floors, and for calendar 1.2.3.

CHANGELOG.md gains the 3.3.0 section. That file is what plugin authors read to
decide which release to floor on, so it records the three new modules --
src/common/sports_card.py, sports_game_renderer.py and sports_shared.py --
against this version, along with the three traps in adopting the mixins.

No test pinned the old literal; the ones that care monkeypatch __version__.
135 compatibility tests pass.

ChuckBuildsandClaude Opus 5 183e23edb3 docs(changelog): record the compatibility gate in 3.2.0
The 3.2.0 section described the unified sports library but none of the
install-path work that landed in #428 and #431 -- which matters more than a
normal changelog omission, because the sunset rule keys on this section to
tell plugin authors what a given floor buys them.

The headline addition: 3.2.0 is the first release that *enforces*
ledmatrix_min_version. Before it the floor was advisory, so a plugin could
declare one and still be delivered to a core that could not run it. That is
the property B6 waits on, and it is now stated where a plugin author will
look for it -- along with the caveat that a core reporting below 2.0.0 is
treated as unknown rather than old and is never blocked.

Also records compatibility.py (and that it does not yet read
compatible_versions), check_release_version.py and its workflow, the
install-preservation fix, the reentrant-lock deadlock fix, and the
web_interface version re-export.

No version bump: 3.2.0 is unreleased, so this describes the release being
cut rather than a new one.

* fix(fonts): resolve asset paths against the install root, not the cwd

FontManager built its catalog from cwd-relative paths ('assets/fonts'),
so any process started outside the install root — the plugin safety
harness on CI being the recurring case — found no fonts and silently
degraded every plugin to PIL's default face. Several plugins grew
per-plugin workarounds for exactly this (countdown, text-display,
tide-display in the plugins monorepo).

Catalog population now falls back to the install root derived from this
module's location when the cwd-relative path is missing; behavior when
running from the install root is unchanged. Verified: resolve_font
returns the real FreeType face from a foreign cwd, and the full unit
suites (266 tests) pass.

* docs: seed CHANGELOG.md with the module-availability release discipline

The plugins monorepo's sunset rule ('delete a bundled fallback copy only
when the manifest floors on the first core release shipping the module')

The existing workflow ran only the three plugin-harness suites; the
skin-system, font-manager, data-source, extractor, scroll-helper,
adaptive-layout, and loader-compat suites (266 tests) existed but never
ran in CI, so a refactor of src/base_classes or src/common could regress
them silently. Also enrolls the new sports characterization and
element-style suites landing in this branch.

* feat: ship src/element_style — the per-element style resolver plugins already expect

Three plugins (of-the-day, ledmatrix-music, football-scoreboard) import
src.element_style behind guarded try/except with classic fallbacks, but
the module never existed in core, so the richer per-element styling UI
those code paths implement has been dormant. This lands it:

- ElementStyleResolver.style() resolves per-element font/size/color with
  the key semantic the consumers encode: a config value counts as
  user-forced only when it differs from the schema default (the web UI
  bakes defaults into config.json on save), and untouched configs
  resolve to exactly the caller's classic values — byte-identical
  rendering, proven by of-the-day's committed goldens passing unchanged.
- defaults_from_schema_file parses both declaration forms (the compact
  x-style-elements map and hand-written customization blocks).
- expand_style_elements() expands x-style-elements into full config
  blocks; schema_manager.load_schema() applies it (guarded, no-op for
  schemas without the declaration) so the config form and defaults
  merging see the expanded UI.
- Fonts resolve cwd-independently with (path, size) caching; .bdf loads
  via freetype like FontManager; nothing in the module raises out of
  style().

Verified: 31 new unit tests; of-the-day's previously-skipped 9-test
spec suite now runs and passes; football's resolver tests pass (27);
music's 38 plugin tests pass; schema-manager suites pass (43).

* test: characterization suite for src/base_classes/sports.py ahead of unification

Pins current behavior before the planned merge of the nine drifted
plugin copies back into this ancestor: the _extract_game_details_common
key contract per sport (reusing GUARANTEED_KEYS from the skin tests),
update() flows for upcoming/recent/live against cache-seeded fixtures
under frozen time, rendering smoke per mode class, and guard rails on
the skin-system seam.

Five surprising behaviors are pinned AS-IS and flagged in comments so
the merge changes them knowingly or not at all: is_upcoming also
matching status.type.name; hockey dropping events whose competitors
lack 'statistics'; baseball reading the event-level status for innings;
no past-date filter in upcoming; and favorites-only mode with an empty
favorites list showing nothing.

* refactor(sports): convert sports.py into a package (pure move)

Phase B1a of docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md. src/base_classes/sports.py
becomes a package so the upcoming capability modules have a home and
diffs show their blast radius:

  sports/__init__.py   re-exports the public API
  sports/core.py       SportsCore
  sports/modes.py      SportsUpcoming / SportsRecent / SportsLive

No logic change: the 1515 class-body lines are byte-identical to the
original (verified by concatenating the two modules and diffing against
HEAD). Only module docstrings and the redistributed import blocks are
new. MRO and __abstractmethods__ are unchanged, and every existing
import site — including 'from src.base_classes.sports import SportsCore'
in the sport subclasses, the skin tests, and the characterization
suite — resolves through the package __init__.

One test edit was required: the characterization suite monkeypatched
'src.base_classes.sports.get_background_service', which is no longer a
module attribute on a package. Retargeted to
'src.base_classes.sports.core.get_background_service' — the module whose
globals SportsCore.__init__ actually resolves, so the patch is effective
exactly as before. No test logic or assertion changed.

Also adds docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md: the architecture for the whole
B1-B5 sequence — how upgradability (guarded imports, capability probing,
frozen view-model keys, the sunset rule), reusability (promote only what
all nine copies share), and modularity (capabilities as opt-in mixins
rather than config branches, variants as named strategies, sport-unique
code as declared override points) are kept as three separate mechanisms.

Verified: characterization + skin 94 passed; the 10-file unit suite 338
passed; test/plugins 60 passed — all identical to pre-change counts.

* feat(sports): promote the nine universal methods into the base classes

Phase B1b of docs/SPORTS_UNIFICATION.md. Every method here is present in
all nine bundled plugin sports.py copies and absent from core, so this is
reuse of code the fleet already agreed on — not new behavior. The
promotions are inert until B5: the plugins' own overrides still run.

SportsCore: cleanup, _get_layout_offset, _load_custom_font_from_element_config
SportsUpcoming: _select_games_for_display
SportsRecent: _get_zero_clock_duration, _clear_zero_clock_tracking,
              _select_recent_games_for_display
SportsLive: _is_game_really_over, _detect_stale_games

Where the copies disagreed, the canonical form was chosen on evidence and
the genuine per-sport differences became seams rather than branches:

- _favorite_key(game, side) -- NRL matches favorites on team id because its
  abbreviations are ambiguous (NEW is both Newcastle Knights and New
  Zealand Warriors). Default is the abbreviation; NRL overrides. Core never
  learns the string nrl.
- FINAL_PERIOD / CLOCK_COUNTS_DOWN -- hockey ends in P3, and soccer/afl/nrl
  clocks count UP, so 0:00 means kickoff, not expiry.
- _config_schema_path() / _font_root() -- plugin-supplied locations, never
  derived from this module's __file__.

BEHAVIOR CHANGE (baseball, ufc): the rejected variant coerced a missing or
non-str clock to the literal 0:00 and then declared the game over at
period >= 4. MLB has no game clock and period is the inning, so live games
were being evicted from the 5th inning onward; UFC likewise. The promoted
variant skips the clock check when the clock is unusable -- it fails safe
(keeps showing the game) instead of failing destructive.

Also fixes a regression from the package move in e591cec: the bodies were
byte-identical but __file__ gained a directory, so _resolve_project_path's
parents[2] silently began resolving to <root>/src instead of the repo root.
Both it and _font_root now derive from a single _INSTALL_ROOT constant, so
a future move needs one line changed rather than two hand-counted depths.
Tests assert the resolved values, not the index.

The font loader takes baseball's body (BDF memo cache + native-strike
retry) under hockey's Optional signature -- the older lineage is the
correct one here, and basketball's positional str default breaks on an
explicit None. It resolves through _font_root rather than the cwd, so it
does not reintroduce the bug just fixed for FontManager, and delegates to
FontManager for the alias table and BDF header parse instead of shipping
second copies. cleanup gained the two new font caches and still leaves
background_service alone -- it is a process-wide singleton.

Verified: 111 new tests (48 core + 59 modes + 4 install-root regression);
characterization + skin suites still exactly 94, unchanged.

* fix(sports): stop dropping hockey and baseball events on optional feed keys

Both bugs were pinned AS-IS by the B0 characterization suite so this
phase could change them knowingly. Both fixes are adoptions of code the
corresponding plugins already ship, not new inventions.

Hockey: the extractor read competitor["statistics"] unguarded, so a
competitor arriving without that array raised KeyError inside the
generator and the WHOLE event was discarded -- valid scores and status
included. Shot/save counts now default to 0, which is already what the
suite expects for an empty statistics array.

Baseball: for live games the extractor read game_event["status"], the
event TOP-LEVEL status, to get the inning. Real ESPN events duplicate
status there, but MiLB events (synthesized from the MLB Stats API into
an ESPN-like shape) populate only the competition-level one, so the
lookup raised a bare KeyError and dropped the event. It now reads the
competition-level status that _extract_game_details_common has already
validated, so it cannot be missing at that point.

The two characterization tests that pinned the old behaviour are
rewritten to assert the fix rather than deleted, so the suite still
documents the edge case -- and still totals 94.

CHANGELOG records these plus the live-clock change from aaabc61 under
Changed/Fixed, since all three are user-visible. The two new promotion
suites join the CI unit job (449 tests).

Verified: unit job 449 passed, plugin-safety job 60 passed, and the
hockey (16) and baseball (24) plugin harnesses render clean at every
panel size.

* fix(sports): harden the live game-over check and font/log init

Follow-up review findings on the promoted base-class methods.

_is_game_really_over:
- `period` present-but-None raised TypeError on `None >= FINAL_PERIOD`,
  taking down the whole live-update pass (_detect_stale_games has no
  try/except). Same failure shape as the null `period_text` already fixed.
- An expired clock spelled "00:00" normalizes to "0000", which matched
  none of the hand-listed literals, so a finished game with a two-digit
  minute clock stayed on the scoreboard forever. Compare numerically.

SportsCore:
- _load_fonts kept the cwd-relative "assets/fonts/..." literals the
  _font_root() seam exists to remove, so every scoreboard font degraded
  to PIL's default face outside the install root.
- _should_log read self._last_warning_time unguarded while only an
  unrelated method initialized it lazily; the first warning of a run
  raised AttributeError. Initialize it in __init__.

Also documents that game_update_timestamps is written by subclasses, not
by the base class, so the staleness branch is inert until B5 adoption.

14 new tests. Gates: 463 core unit, 60 plugin safety.

* feat(sports): opt-in celebration and rotation capabilities

Phase B2 of the sports unification. Both features exist in only some of
the nine scoreboards, so they ship as capabilities the plugin composes,
never as `if self.<feature>_enabled` branches inside the base classes: a
sport that does not opt in has none of this code in its MRO.

CelebrationMixin (afl, nrl, soccer, football)
The two lineages spelled this differently -- _check_for_goal /
celebrate_opponent_goals vs _check_for_score / celebrate_opponent_scores
-- but the bodies were identical apart from three things, each now a
seam rather than a branch:
  - wording -> score_phrase() / win_phrase() hooks
  - follow-up suppression -> COALESCE_SCORING_SEQUENCE, on for football
    where a touchdown lands as +6 then +1, off where two increments are
    two real goals
  - team identity -> _favorite_key, so nrl matches on team id without
    core learning why its abbreviations are ambiguous
Both config spellings are read, so a plugin adopting the mixin keeps
working with the keys already in its published schema.

Rotation strategies
The three "dialects" turned out to be one algorithm (SWRR) in two
shapes: an incremental picker holding state across calls, and a
precomputed per-cycle list. They agree within a cycle and differ only at
the boundary, so core ships both behind a name registry rather than
declaring a winner. weight_for is supplied by the host, so rotation.py
never learns what a favorite is; an unknown name degrades to "simple"
because it arrives from user config.

Each strategy is checked against a verbatim transcription of the plugin
code it replaces, over every live-game shape up to four games -- the
differential B5 will delete the bundled copies on the strength of.

185 new tests. Gates: 648 core unit, 60 plugin safety.

* feat(scroll): upstream the scroll orchestration layer; release 3.2.0

Phases B3 and B4.

B3 -- src/common/sports_scroll.py is deliberately NOT a superset of the
ten plugin scroll_display.py copies. A method-level comparison of the
eight that share a shape (f1 and ufc are genuine forks) found a sharp
split, and the module is drawn along it:

  promoted   orchestration -- get_all_vegas_content_items is identical
             in all eight; clear_all, get_scroll_info,
             get_dynamic_duration, is_complete and display_frame are
             96-100% similar
  promoted   settings -- one algorithm; the copies differ only in which
             league keys they walk, so the ladder is data
             (SCROLL_LEAGUE_KEYS) rather than a body per sport
  NOT        content -- prepare_scroll_content has 8 distinct bodies
             across 8 plugins (145 lines, 53% similar at worst) and
             _load_separator_icons 7 (6% at worst)

Same name, different job: prepare_scroll_content draws *this sport's*
game card. Merging those eight bodies would be exactly the mistake the
promotion rule exists to prevent, so the base raises NotImplementedError
rather than rendering something plausible -- a base that rendered
something would let a plugin ship a silently blank scroll.

The one behavior added over the plugin copies is native
global_config['target_fps'] support. The bundled copies hardcode ~100
FPS via scroll_delay and never consult the global target; Part A
threaded it through each copy by hand, and this makes that threading
legacy compatibility rather than the mechanism.

66 tests, including three against the real ScrollHelper rather than a
double -- a suite built entirely on MagicMock would sail straight past a
rename in the helper.

B4 -- bump src/__init__.py to 3.2.0 and close the CHANGELOG's Unreleased
section against it. This is the number the sunset rule keys on: the
first core release shipping the unified sports library, and therefore
the floor a plugin sets ledmatrix_min_version to before deleting its
bundled copies. The version bump and the changelog release heading move
together on purpose -- separating them would leave a commit whose
changelog announces 3.2.0 while the code still reports 3.1.0.

Nothing here changes what an existing plugin loads; adoption is B5.

Gates: 714 core unit, 66 plugin safety.

* fix(sports): per-type warning cooldowns and font-load logging

Follow-ups from the second review pass, both on already-fixed findings:

_should_log accepted a warning_type and ignored it, sharing one
timestamp across every kind of warning -- so an API-error warning
silenced an unrelated cache warning for the next minute, and whichever
fired first won. Cooldowns are now keyed by type. Nothing in core calls
this method, so no behavior regressed; _last_warning_time is kept in
step for subclasses that read it directly.

_load_fonts logged through the module-level logger, dropping the manager
context, and had no return type hint. It now uses self.logger (set well
before _load_fonts runs) and names the directory it searched -- the bare
"Fonts not found" sent people hunting for a font-format problem when the
actual cause is an install missing assets/fonts.

Gates: 717 core unit, 66 plugin safety.

B5 cannot ship until this PR merges and 3.2.0 exists -- a plugin cannot

* fix(sports): harden the B2/B3 capabilities against bad config and subclasses

Review pass on the phase B2-B4 changes. Every fix here is the same shape
as the crashes this PR already fixed in the hockey and baseball
extractors: a config or feed value that is present-but-wrong reaching
arithmetic or a comparison on a path with no guard.

celebrations:
- celebration_duration is coerced and floored at init. It is compared
  numerically in display() *outside* any try block, so a string from a
  hand-edited config propagated a TypeError straight out; zero or
  negative armed a celebration that could never render.
- A render failure now disarms instead of staying armed. It previously
  retried the same broken render on every frame for the rest of the
  window -- a traceback per frame, and no scorebug either.
- prune_score_baselines() for the live set. Only _check_for_win removed
  entries, so a game that left the live list any other way leaked its
  baseline and the dict grew all season.
- display() reuses has_active_celebration() rather than repeating its
  window comparison, and log lines carry a [Celebrations] prefix.

rotation:
- MAX_WEIGHT ceiling. A cycle is sum(weights) long and each step scans
  every game, so an unbounded weight from a misread config spins the
  display thread -- on a Pi that stalls rendering outright.
- register_rotation_strategy rejects a non-subclass factory at
  registration instead of failing frames later inside schedule().
- schedule() previews through type(self), so a subclass overriding
  next_game is previewed with its own ordering -- which is what the
  method promises.

sports_scroll:
- scroll_speed / scroll_delay coerced. dict.get(key, default) only helps
  when the key is absent; present-but-null reached the multiplication
  inside __init__ and the display failed to construct at all.
- update_scroll_position and get_visible_portion moved inside the try.
  They ran outside it, so a raise there reached the plugin's frame loop
  despite the comment promising none can.
- prepare_and_display guards the subclass call, so one sport's bad
  payload cannot take down the shared orchestration for the others.
- _current_game_type spells "nothing active" as "" in both classes; the
  manager said None while the display said "".

Not taken: the report that baseball's favorite-team debug path still
reads event-level status. Verified against current code -- there are no
remaining game_event["status"] reads in that file; it was fixed in
2486bdb and the finding is stale.

Gates: 747 core unit, 66 plugin safety.

* fix(baseball): don't drop favourite MiLB games on the diagnostic path

The competition-level status fallback fixed the inning lookup, but the
favourite-team debug block a few lines above still read the event top-level
game_event["status"]. MiLB events (synthesized from the MLB Stats API into an
ESPN-like shape) populate only the competition-level status, so the identical
event that extracted fine for a non-favourite raised KeyError and returned
None once the team was a favourite.

Worst possible shape for the bug: it only hit the games the user cared most
about, and only on the path meant to help diagnose them. The existing
regression test missed it because it never passes favourites, so
is_favorite_game was False and the block never ran.

Uses the validated competition-level `status`, which
_extract_game_details_common guarantees is present by that point. Adds a
favourites-passing companion test; confirmed it reproduces the KeyError
without the fix.

* docs(sports): type-hint game_update_timestamps to match its sibling

Addresses the last remaining sub-point on the modes.py review thread. The
design finding itself is already handled: the base class documents that it
only reads game_update_timestamps and that a subclass's update() owns writing
"last_seen" (and afl/etc. do, so stale-game eviction works in practice). The
one concrete gap was the missing annotation -- _zero_clock_timestamps is typed
Dict[str, float] while this nested map had none. Now Dict[str, Dict[str, float]].

* Address CodeRabbit review: font-name traversal + offline test guard

Two Minor findings from CodeRabbit's first review of this PR.

- resolve_font_path: reject relative font names carrying path components.
  font_name comes from plugin config, which the web UI writes; a value like
  "../../config/config.json" escaped assets/fonts/ after os.path.join and let
  a config probe arbitrary paths for existence (disclosure unlikely, since
  Pillow/freetype reject non-font files, but the probe is real). Relative
  names must now be bare filenames (os.path.basename(name) == name); absolute
  paths keep their existing isfile() gate. Test confirms the traversal
  resolved the real config.json before the guard.

- build_manager fixture: patch requests.Session.get BEFORE constructing the
  manager. Construction creates both SportsCore.session and the
  ESPNDataSource.session; the old code only replaced manager.session after
  the fact, leaving data_source.session real and able to reach the network on
  an accidental fetch. Patching the class makes every session built in the
  fixture offline.

* test(celebrations): make the expiry tests actually test expiry

CodeRabbit (Major) on the merge re-review: celebration_duration is clamped to
a 1.0s floor, so the two expiry tests that configured 0 and expected instant
expiration never actually hit the expiry branch. They passed only because
_draw_celebration_layout raises in the harness (no real fonts) and its
exception branch clears the celebration the same way -- so they were really
re-testing the render-failure path, not expiry.

Now use a valid 1s duration, backdate started_at past the window, and mock
_draw_celebration_layout with assert_not_called() so an expired celebration
provably does NOT render. Verified discriminating: both fail if
has_active_celebration is forced to never expire.

Production code unchanged -- the expiry logic was already correct; only the
tests were mismodelling it.

harness on CI being the recurring case — found no fonts and silently
degraded every plugin to PIL's default face. Several plugins grew
per-plugin workarounds for exactly this (countdown, text-display,
tide-display in the plugins monorepo).

Catalog population now falls back to the install root derived from this
module's location when the cwd-relative path is missing; behavior when
running from the install root is unchanged. Verified: resolve_font
returns the real FreeType face from a foreign cwd, and the full unit
suites (266 tests) pass.

* docs: seed CHANGELOG.md with the module-availability release discipline

The plugins monorepo's sunset rule ('delete a bundled fallback copy only
when the manifest floors on the first core release shipping the module')
needs core module additions recorded against version numbers. Seeds the
changelog at 3.1.0 and documents the discipline.

* ci: enroll the core unit suites in a dedicated job

The existing workflow ran only the three plugin-harness suites; the
skin-system, font-manager, data-source, extractor, scroll-helper,
adaptive-layout, and loader-compat suites (266 tests) existed but never
ran in CI, so a refactor of src/base_classes or src/common could regress
them silently. Also enrolls the new sports characterization and
element-style suites landing in this branch.

* feat: ship src/element_style — the per-element style resolver plugins already expect

Three plugins (of-the-day, ledmatrix-music, football-scoreboard) import
src.element_style behind guarded try/except with classic fallbacks, but
the module never existed in core, so the richer per-element styling UI
those code paths implement has been dormant. This lands it:

- ElementStyleResolver.style() resolves per-element font/size/color with
  the key semantic the consumers encode: a config value counts as
  user-forced only when it differs from the schema default (the web UI
  bakes defaults into config.json on save), and untouched configs
  resolve to exactly the caller's classic values — byte-identical
  rendering, proven by of-the-day's committed goldens passing unchanged.
- defaults_from_schema_file parses both declaration forms (the compact
  x-style-elements map and hand-written customization blocks).
- expand_style_elements() expands x-style-elements into full config
  blocks; schema_manager.load_schema() applies it (guarded, no-op for
  schemas without the declaration) so the config form and defaults
  merging see the expanded UI.
- Fonts resolve cwd-independently with (path, size) caching; .bdf loads
  via freetype like FontManager; nothing in the module raises out of
  style().

Verified: 31 new unit tests; of-the-day's previously-skipped 9-test
spec suite now runs and passes; football's resolver tests pass (27);
music's 38 plugin tests pass; schema-manager suites pass (43).

* test: characterization suite for src/base_classes/sports.py ahead of unification

Pins current behavior before the planned merge of the nine drifted
plugin copies back into this ancestor: the _extract_game_details_common
key contract per sport (reusing GUARANTEED_KEYS from the skin tests),
update() flows for upcoming/recent/live against cache-seeded fixtures
under frozen time, rendering smoke per mode class, and guard rails on
the skin-system seam.

Five surprising behaviors are pinned AS-IS and flagged in comments so
the merge changes them knowingly or not at all: is_upcoming also
matching status.type.name; hockey dropping events whose competitors
lack 'statistics'; baseball reading the event-level status for innings;
no past-date filter in upcoming; and favorites-only mode with an empty
favorites list showing nothing.

* ci: restrict the test workflow's GITHUB_TOKEN to contents:read

CodeQL flagged the new unit-tests job for running with the default
unrestricted token; the pre-existing job had the same exposure. Both
jobs only check out the repo and run pytest, so a workflow-level
contents:read is sufficient.

* Address CodeRabbit review: font-name traversal + offline test guard

Two Minor findings from CodeRabbit's first review of this PR.

- resolve_font_path: reject relative font names carrying path components.
  font_name comes from plugin config, which the web UI writes; a value like
  "../../config/config.json" escaped assets/fonts/ after os.path.join and let
  a config probe arbitrary paths for existence (disclosure unlikely, since
  Pillow/freetype reject non-font files, but the probe is real). Relative
  names must now be bare filenames (os.path.basename(name) == name); absolute
  paths keep their existing isfile() gate. Test confirms the traversal
  resolved the real config.json before the guard.

- build_manager fixture: patch requests.Session.get BEFORE constructing the
  manager. Construction creates both SportsCore.session and the
  ESPNDataSource.session; the old code only replaced manager.session after
  the fact, leaving data_source.session real and able to reach the network on
  an accidental fetch. Patching the class makes every session built in the
  fixture offline.
