ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 876130e93f feat(vegas): live elements update in place while they scroll
One background worker (src/vegas_mode/live_worker.py) redraws a plugin's
live elements when its data epoch moves on (update listener) or on their
refresh_hz, nearest the screen first, and hands changed pixels lock-free to
the render thread, which copies them into the strip between frames
(RenderPipeline.apply_live_patches, ScrollHelper.patch_columns): at most
four patches or two screens of bytes a frame, no drawing or locks there.
The worker takes over group prefetch once a live element is placed, runs
inside the render gate, and is supervised. Update tick 1s while live
elements exist. Web UI switch for live_refresh. OFFSCREEN_RENDERING.md
describes what was built and why SegmentStrip was not needed.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 701c220ad0 feat(vegas): live elements -- a plugin API for content that changes while it scrolls
Vegas bakes each plugin's pictures into one strip, so a card already on its
way across the panel keeps what it showed when it was drawn. This adds the
API and bookkeeping for content that can be updated in place; the worker
that redraws and swaps it follows separately. No shipped plugin implements
the hook yet, so nothing changes for users.

Plugin API (core 3.8.0), all no-ops by default:
- BasePlugin.get_vegas_elements() -> [VegasElement(key, image, version,
  live, refresh_hz)]: named, fixed-width pieces of Vegas content.
- BasePlugin.redraw_vegas_element(key, width, height, at): a lock-free
  redraw for content that changes with time.
- BasePlugin.notify_vegas_data_changed(): data that lands outside update().
- src/plugin_system/vegas_elements.py (VegasElement, re-exported from
  base_plugin).

Core:
- PluginAdapter asks a plugin that implements the hook for elements on the
  background fetch only (under its lock, on its own canvas); every other
  path keeps get_vegas_content(). Live elements are pinned (padded with
  content_padding, never trimmed), tagged with their key, digest and data
  epoch in Image.info so the existing cache and group plumbing carry them
  unchanged, and untagged if a width budget crops them.
- RenderPipeline records where each live element lands (ElementRecord), in
  absolute strip columns a trim does not move; the block-start arithmetic
  is shared with the STATIC markers.
- PluginManager update listeners (add/remove_update_listener,
  notify_data_changed): told the moment update() completes, not at the
  next ~4s Vegas poll. The coordinator uses one to move each plugin's data
  epoch on.
- vegas_scroll.live_refresh (kill switch), live_max_hz, live_min_interval,
  live_lead_screens; per-plugin core-owned vegas_live. Live elements are
  off under multi-display sync, in swap mode and with offscreen_prefetch off.
- scripts/check_plugin.py checks the element contract
  (src/plugin_system/testing/vegas.py); test/fixtures/plugins/vegas-live-stub
  is a working example.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 1252df9bad perf(timing): say which render-thread work a late frame followed
The soak already says how often a moving frame reached the panel late, but
not what the render thread was doing just before it. Vegas does two kinds of
work there between frames -- building its strip (compose, extend) and, with
live elements, patching changed pixels into it -- and deciding whether either
is affordable needs their own numbers.

- FrameTimingRecorder.note_op(kind, nbytes) tags the next presented frame.
  Totals gain op_frames, late_op_frames, op_freezes and op_bytes per kind;
  aggregate() still takes frames without ops. The file schema is unchanged.
- Vegas tags compose and every strip extension (with the bytes it copied).
- frame_soak prints an "after work" table: frames, late %, freezes and MB
  moved per kind, only when something tagged its work.
- render_bench gains --strip-screens (Vegas-sized strips), --patch-bytes /
  --patch-every / --patch-where (in-place column writes, as a live element
  update does) and --extend-every-screens / --extend-width (append + trim on
  a fixed cadence that holds the strip's width).

No runtime behaviour changes: this is the measurement gate for live Vegas
elements.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 7804ea8f69 feat(update): stable/beta update channel; stable follows release tags (#684)
Adds auto_update.channel: stable follows the newest vX.Y.Z release tag
(detached HEAD; pre-releases and other tags ignored), beta follows main as
before. Nothing ever moves a device backwards: a checkout newer than the
newest release keeps following main (or stays put when detached) until a
release contains its commit. Legacy configs migrate to stable when they
reach a release. Update Code, the weekly updater's preflight, and the
verifier's rollback (back to old_ref: branch or detached release) all
honour the channel. General tab Update Channel select, GET/POST
/api/v3/system/update-channel, release-aware Overview banner and Tools git
panel. New installs default to stable.

Rig fix (ledpi): /system/check-update reports update_available: false when
the channel's action is none (a detached HEAD newer than the newest
release), matching Update Code; the Tools panel no longer calls every
detached HEAD "a release".

Merged with main through #687 (heartbeat verifier, #683 login, #688
plugin_catalog, #685 Tailwind build).

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 64c7289593 feat(display): systemd watchdog and heartbeat for a frozen render loop (#687)
If the render loop gets stuck inside a plugin's display(), ledmatrix.service
stays active and the panel stays frozen. This adds a way to detect that.

- src/display_watchdog.py (standard library only) sends sd_notify over
  $NOTIFY_SOCKET and writes /run/ledmatrix/display-heartbeat.json. Only the
  render thread counts: beats from other threads are ignored.
- ledmatrix.service: WatchdogSec=120, NotifyAccess=main,
  RuntimeDirectory=ledmatrix (0755), RestartSteps=4 and
  RestartMaxDelaySec=2min. It stays Type=simple. run.py widens the watchdog
  to 15 min for start-up, and load_plugin() does the same on the render
  thread. The loop arms after its first frame.
- /api/v3/health adds checks.display_loop: running, stalled (no heartbeat
  for over 60s, which makes the status degraded) or not_reported. With web
  login on, a caller who is not logged in still gets only healthy/degraded,
  and a stall degrades that answer.
- The update verifier requires a fresh heartbeat from the restarted display
  when the display it replaced was writing one. A frozen panel is rolled
  back.
- Existing installs get the systemd watchdog only after install_service.sh
  is re-run. The heartbeat works right away.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 b09434a418 refactor(plugins): the display publishes plugin runtime state; retire plugin_state.json (#690)
Stage 2 of the web plugin catalog, after #688.

- The display publishes a plugin runtime snapshot (plugin_runtime.py) to
  the shared cache: per plugin loaded, lifecycle state, a short redacted
  error summary, the version it loaded and when, plus published_at /
  stale_after / running. Written on change (throttled to 10 s; the
  RUNNING/ENABLED flip of an ordinary update is not a change) and once a
  minute otherwise; cleanup() publishes running: false.
- The web reads it back and restores loaded / state / error_info in
  /api/v3/plugins/installed (plus loaded_version, loaded_at and
  data.runtime). Only a live snapshot counts; stale, stopped or missing
  answers null and says which.
- data/plugin_state.json is retired: every reader and writer moved to
  config + disk (desired) or the snapshot (observed). Nothing in it was
  non-derivable, so nothing is migrated and an existing file is left
  unread. The web-side PluginStateManager (state_manager.py) is removed;
  the display's plugin_state.PluginStateManager is the only state machine.
- StateReconciliation compares config + disk with the snapshot, reporting
  enabled-but-not-loaded and older-version-loaded as no_action findings.
- Backups list installed manifests with enabled from config.json.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 7ab6fb1aff refactor(web): read plugins through a PluginCatalog; only the display runs them (#688)
The web process built its own PluginManager and loaded plugins into itself:
store installs and updates loaded or reloaded a web-side copy, and config
saves and enable/disable called on_config_change, on_enable and on_disable
on it. None of that reached the panel, and /plugins/installed reported
runtime state from those copies.

- Add PluginCatalog (src/plugin_system/plugin_catalog.py): manifests,
  directories, display modes, installed version, schema and config reads,
  with no way to run a plugin. app.py and both blueprints use it; the
  plugin_manager blueprint attribute is gone.
- Remove every lifecycle call from the web routes. Config changes already
  reach the display through ConfigService (on_config_change) and the
  enabled-set reconcile.
- Health and metrics readers move to api_v3.health_tracker /
  resource_monitor. /plugins/installed reports loaded/state/error_info as
  null (the display does not publish them) and enabled by the display's
  rule.
- Store install, update and uninstall answer restart_required when the
  running display will not pick the change up by itself
  (display_restart_required). The restart banner follows the flag via
  window.noteRestartRequired instead of the /config/main URL heuristic;
  /config/main now sends restart_required: true.
- The one remaining in-process import of plugin code (Starlark helper
  modules, oauth_flow action scripts) goes through
  _import_plugin_code_in_web_process() until a web-entry contract.
- /plugins/installed reports vegas_participation (from #682) from the
  user's setting or the manifest, with vegas_participation_source; when
  only the plugin's code decides it, null with source 'runtime', since the
  web process no longer has plugin instances to ask.
- Check & Update All keeps its restart flags when the final list refresh
  fails, and asks for a restart when an enabled plugin's first request got
  no answer and the re-sent one found it up to date.

"Needs LEDMatrix X+" card badge), aliases (update/uninstall/reinstall by

proof only), and commit (shown and linked on the store card). An older

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 1c928b2033 feat(vegas): one declared participation per plugin (scroll | pause | exclude) (#682)
A plugin takes part in Vegas mode in one declared way: 'scroll', 'pause'
or 'exclude', resolved from the user's vegas_participation setting, the
manifest field, then the legacy hooks, so no plugin changes behaviour.
The stream manager decides inclusion and pauses through it; the installed
plugins API and the Vegas plugin-order list report it. Deprecates
get_supported_vegas_modes, get_vegas_segment_width and vegas_panel_count
for removal in 3.9.0, and regenerates docs/DEPRECATIONS_3.8.md to include
them.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 c0d97e4867 fix(plugins): one hung plugin no longer stops every plugin from updating (#677)
The update worker no longer blocks forever on a plugin whose display()
never returns. It waits at most PLUGIN_LOCK_TIMEOUT (5s) for a plugin's
lock, then skips that plugin's update (a report-only "busy skip" in
health) and keeps updating every other plugin. display() frames are timed
(slow calls logged and counted; calls past the executor timeout recorded as
hangs), a hung update() is recorded, and on_config_change() now runs under
the plugin lock or is deferred to the worker. The plugin-facing API is
unchanged.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 c3a7a110c4 fix(display): on-demand loads a disabled plugin live instead of failing (#678)
* fix(web): on-demand no longer restarts a running display service

POST /display/on-demand/start treated start_service (default true, sent by
"Preview on display", the on-demand dialog and the MQTT bridge) as
"restart": with the service running it ran systemctl stop, slept 1.5s and
started it again. Every request cold-started the display process -- every
plugin reloaded, panel blank -- to deliver a request the running process
already reads from the cache mailbox every ON_DEMAND_POLL_INTERVAL (0.25s),
including mid-dwell, mid-screen and mid-Vegas. The restart bought nothing:
startup only restores a session the display saved itself
(display_on_demand_config), so the new request arrived through the same
mailbox either way.

start_service now means "start it if it is not running". The stop route
coerces stop_service to a boolean so "false" no longer stops the service.
test_api_v3_on_demand_restart.py pinned the old restart path; it now pins
the replacement. Docs updated.

* fix(display): on-demand loads a disabled plugin live instead of failing

The display process only loads enabled plugins, so an on-demand request for
a disabled one -- "Preview on display" offers it on every config page, with a
note that the plugin will be enabled for the preview -- failed with
invalid-mode. Nothing enabled it short of a restart, and the on-demand route
no longer restarts the service.

_activate_on_demand now loads an installed-but-not-running plugin through
the live-enable path (load_plugin + _register_loaded_plugin), with a new
load_plugin(force_enabled=True) so the instance runs enabled while
config.json keeps saying disabled. The plugin is tracked in
_on_demand_loaded_plugins, and the main loop unloads it through
_unregister_plugin once on-demand moves off it (stop, expiry, another
request, or a failed request that ends the session) -- right after its own
poll, where no display() is on the stack. A failed load publishes status
error with load-failed. A plugin enabled during the session stays loaded.

A session restored after a restart uses the same tracking instead of
setting enabled in the config dict config_manager caches, so its plugin is
unloaded when the session ends rather than staying loaded until the next
restart. Ending a session no longer resumes the rotation onto a plugin that
is about to be unloaded, which a restored session did.

Also: a stop sent while on-demand is inactive clears a failed request's
error, instead of /display/on-demand/status reporting status: error until
the state aged out.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 1e4c890d59 feat(common): sports_celebration, sports_fetch and sports_card_wrappers, promoted from the scoreboards (sports consolidation stage 3) (#672)
Three new hardware-free modules holding code the scoreboard plugins carry
as identical copies (executable AST, docstrings stripped, checked across
every carrying plugin at ledmatrix-plugins 30455671). The bodies are the
plugins'; the changes are type annotations for the mypy ratchet, the
colour helpers losing their leading underscore as public free functions,
and two comments that described the plugins' files.

- src/common/sports_celebration.py: SportsCelebrationMixin, the score/win
  takeover drawn by afl, football, hockey, nrl and soccer
  (_draw_celebration_layout and the palette, backdrop, scenery, confetti,
  crest and _fit_font steps, with their class constants), plus the colour
  helpers (logo_palette, lift_color, cap_luminance, mix_color, ...). Only
  the drawing: _start_celebration, _check_for_goal/_check_for_score,
  _check_for_win and display() differ between the plugins and stay there.
- src/common/sports_fetch.py: SportsFetchMixin, the four SportsCore methods
  identical in all nine scoreboards: _fetch_season_directly,
  _background_fetches_espn_ranges, _needs_previous_day and
  _wants_live_odds, with _LOOKBACK_CUTOFF_HOUR and _LIVE_ODDS_LOOKAHEAD.
  _get_timezone, _extract_game_details and _fetch_data are as identical
  and stay behind, for the reasons sports_shared gives (a per-plugin
  import; the abstract contract); so does SportsUpcoming.__init__, since
  no src/common mixin has a constructor.
- src/common/sports_card_wrappers.py: SportsCardWrappersMixin, the
  seventeen sports_card delegations the eight game renderers carry (15 in
  all eight, 2 in all but football, whose own versions override them).
  _schema_font_size/_resolve_font_size look identical but read each
  plugin's own _SCHEMA_PATH, so they stay.

Each mixin has no __init__ and creates no attributes (the host contract is
declared as annotations only), defines no name the mixins beside it
define, and documents the attributes it reads; a host-contract test
parses each and fails on an undocumented read. A method kept on a
plugin's class wins over the mixin's.

Tests: behaviour ported from the plugins' celebration, odds, lookback and
date-range tests against stub hosts carrying exactly the contract, with
crests drawn by the test (test_sports_celebration.py, test_sports_fetch.py,
test_sports_card_wrappers.py), and test_sports_stage3_parity.py, which with
LEDMATRIX_PLUGINS set compares every body with every plugin copy that is
left (58 pass against the plugins today; a copy that is gone counts as
adopted). All three modules are on the mypy ratchet, in
src/common/README.md, the CHANGELOG's Unreleased section and
SPORTS_UNIFICATION's module table. Nothing in core uses them yet.

Full suite: the same 67 failing test ids as main (Windows-only), 77 more
passing.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 fe5bed2886 feat(common): favorite_team_check and sports_timezone, promoted from the scoreboards (sports consolidation stage 2) (#665)
* feat(common): favorite_team_check and sports_timezone, promoted from the scoreboards (sports consolidation stage 2)

Two new hardware-free modules, taken from files the scoreboard plugins carry
as copies:

- src/common/favorite_team_check.py: FavoriteTeamCheck(logger, leagues), the
  seven byte-identical <sport>_favorite_check.py copies. Same code; the only
  additions are two type annotations (for the mypy ratchet).
- src/common/sports_timezone.py: resolve_timezone_name(), resolve_timezone(),
  system_timezone_name(), from the ten <sport>_timezone.py copies. They
  differed only in the plugin label named in the nothing-resolved warning and
  the write-back-bug values, which become keyword-only arguments
  (plugin_label, writeback_fixed_in). Same resolution order and log text.

Tests are ported from the plugins' own (test_favorite_check.py,
test_schedule_note_uses_game_dates.py, test_timezone_resolution.py; the
timezone ones run once per plugin's values and pin the exact warning text).
Both modules are on the mypy ratchet, in src/common/README.md, the CHANGELOG's
Unreleased section and SPORTS_UNIFICATION's module table. Nothing in core uses
them yet.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 989eae9405 refactor(plugins): split PluginStoreManager into mixins (#659)
* refactor(plugins): split PluginStoreManager into mixins

src/plugin_system/store_manager.py (2,977 lines) keeps the class, its
shared state, locks, the uninstall registry, directory lookup and
uninstall; its methods are split by area into:
- store_registry.py (_RegistryMixin): registry, GitHub metadata, search,
  manifest validation
- store_install.py (_InstallMixin): install paths and dependencies
- store_update.py (_UpdateMixin): updates, rollback, local git state

Pure move: all 56 members are byte-identical (checked with ast) and the
assembled class has exactly the same attributes as before (checked at
runtime). PluginStoreManager is imported from store_manager.py as before.
Tests that patched shared modules (subprocess, requests, tempfile, shutil)
through store_manager now reach them through the module whose code they
exercise; a source-text contract test reads all store_*.py modules.

subprocess imports and a list-form git clone (no shell), and the config
template's placeholder token string -- existing code that Codacy reported
as new because it moved. Annotated with the repo's nosec/nosemgrep style.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 09103a8a7d refactor(web): split api_v3/plugins.py by area (#658)
* refactor(web): split api_v3/plugins.py by area

web_interface/blueprints/api_v3/plugins.py (3,285 lines) becomes:
- plugins.py: installed list, enable/disable, plugin actions
- plugin_store.py: install, update, uninstall, store, saved repositories
- plugin_config.py: config get/save, schema, reset
- plugin_assets.py: asset uploads and plugin static files
- plugin_health.py: health, metrics, limits
- plugin_operations.py: operation history, state reconciliation
- plugin_calendar.py: calendar credentials and auth

Pure move: all 44 functions and 38 route decorators are byte-identical
(checked with ast), URLs and endpoint names are unchanged (url-map test).
Each module imports only what it uses. Tests and config.py that reached
into plugins.py for moved names now import from the new module.

* fix(web): keep exception text out of calendar responses; annotate moved code

The split made scanners report existing findings in the moved code as new:
- CodeQL: the calendar auth and calendar-list routes returned exception
  text (redacted, but still derived from the exception). Both now log the
  exception and return a fixed message pointing at the log.
- MD5 in the asset upload only makes a filename unique: usedforsecurity=False.
- pickle reads/writes the calendar plugin's own OAuth token (as before):
  annotated. Token-status labels and a log line naming the secrets path are
  false positives: annotated with the repo's nosec/nosemgrep convention.

* fix(web): name uploaded assets with SHA-256 instead of MD5

The hash only makes an uploaded image's filename unique. Codacy flags MD5
even with usedforsecurity=False, and SHA-256 does the job as well; existing
files keep their names.

* fix(web): keep the redacted exception detail in calendar errors

Reverts the calendar part of 5e695b7c. The project's policy
(test_no_api_v3_handler_discards_its_exception) is that an API error
carries the redacted exception detail -- describe_exception runs it
through the credential redactor -- so a failure is diagnosable from the web
UI. Dropping it for CodeQL broke that; CodeQL can't see the redaction, so
its two alerts here are false positives, like the existing ones on main.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 724673ba0b fix: one retry layer for background fetches; CI installs the web requirements; one Discord invite (#657)
- BackgroundDataService: the session adapter retried connection errors 3x
  inside each attempt of the service's own retry loop (up to 16 connection
  attempts per request on a dead network). The adapter no longer retries;
  ESPN date chunks, which bypass the loop and skip a failed chunk, get a
  small connection retry of their own (_ConnectionRetryingSession).
- CI installs web_interface/requirements.txt. The brotli header test now
  checks its intent (core never hand-sets br; requests may advertise it when
  a decoder is installed) instead of failing whenever brotli is present.
- Every Discord link uses the LEDMatrix server's invite (RdrC37rEag).

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 c00bf5e8e6 fix(plugin-system): unload/update race, failed-load cleanup, limits validation, schema lookup, install rollback (#653)
* fix(plugin-system): unload/update race, failed-load module cleanup, limits validation, schema lookup, install rollback, op-queue dedupe

- unload_plugin takes the per-plugin lock (5s bounded) before cleanup(),
  and an update() that finishes after its plugin was unloaded no longer
  sets the state back to ENABLED.
- A load that fails after import drops plugin_<id> and its submodules
  and forgets its manager fonts, so a fixed plugin reloads new code.
- Resource limits are validated as non-negative numbers: 400 at
  POST /plugins/limits, bad cached records ignored with one warning.
  Route docstrings note health/metrics reset and limits only change the
  web process's view.
- SchemaManager.get_schema_path resolves each search dir via
  resolve_plugin_dir (manifest id, ledmatrix-<id>) before the literal
  paths; plugins/ still before plugin-repos/. Misses cached 30s and
  logged once at DEBUG.
- install_from_url sets an existing copy aside and restores it if the
  move fails, under the per-plugin reinstall lock.
- Operation queue refuses a second pending op for a plugin and trims
  _operations with history.
- get_vegas_render_width reads display_manager.width first.
- get_logger in store/schema/health/resource/saved_repositories;
  UTF-8 reads in store_manager and state_manager.
- Docs: update_interval precedence (manifest over config) stated where
  users are told to set it in config.

* fix(web): build the limits 400 message from the field name, not an exception

CodeQL flagged str(e) flowing into the response. invalid_limit_field()
returns the offending field without raising, and limits_from_dict uses it.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 aeaeaa4e94 chore: make contributor tooling work; fix drifted docs (#648)
- mypy.ini parses again (multi-line exclude and inline value comments made
  mypy reject the file); the mypy pre-commit hook is manual-only until the

- .gitignore: ignore all of config/ except the templates (ytm_auth.json and
  others weren't ignored)

- claude-code-review: skip fork PRs, which have no secrets
- check_system_compatibility.sh: 3.13 supported, <3.10 an error

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 7eb7a58d0c fix: web UI and src.common bugs (wifi wrong-password, plugin icon, starlark toggle, API caching, scroll/logo/font helpers) (#646)
- wifi: keep the "wrong_password:" prefix through the restore/AP fallback so
  the UI's incorrect-password prompt fires again.
- /plugins/installed returns the manifest's icon (string only).
- /starlark/apps/<id>/toggle coerces `enabled` and delegates to
  _toggle_starlark_app (disk before memory, no KeyError, "false" is false).
- /api/v3/ JSON GETs are sent Cache-Control: no-store; non-JSON keeps 5s.
- ScrollHelper.set_scrolling_image converts non-RGB input (alpha onto black);
  create/set_scrolling_image reset last_update_time like reset_scroll.
- LogoHelper backs off a failed download per path for
  MISSING_LOGO_RECHECK_SECONDS; cleared on invalidate/clear_cache.
- refresh_placeholder_timestamp saves atomically.
- FontManager.clear_cache / _clear_plugin_font_cache bump cache_generation.
- Odds manager: per-game logs to DEBUG; JSON decode error caught before
  RequestException (same cooldown).
- element_style mangled continuations; startup validator skips null plugin
  blocks and reuses the controller's discovery.
- src/common/README lists frame_timing, json_body, render_gate.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 9964dd2183 feat(vegas): render plugin content off the render thread, and keep it off the GIL when the panel needs it (#630)
DisplayManager.offscreen() gives a thread its own canvas, so Vegas renders every plugin's ticker content on its prefetch thread instead of pausing the scroll for canvas-bound plugins on the render thread. A render gate (src/common/render_gate.py, vegas_scroll.prefetch_gate, on by default with the GIL-releasing binding) lets the prefetch thread run Python only while the render thread waits in SwapOnVSync: on hdpi, frames 2+ refreshes late fell eightfold and late frames overall from 0.90% to 0.60%. See docs/OFFSCREEN_RENDERING.md.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 865d62f67b feat(display): compensate for the panel's scan order while scrolling (#634)
A 1:N-scan HUB75 panel lights the two rows either side of its middle at opposite ends of each refresh, so a scroll at one pixel per refresh shows a 1px step across the middle of every panel. While something scrolls at one frame per refresh, DisplayManager now shows the half whose seam row lights first one refresh behind the other (src/scan_order.py), which lines the two up again. Only for layouts whose row order is known; display.scan_order_compensation "off" disables it. Confirmed on hdpi before and after.

src/common/frame_timing.py times every frame the display presents, whoever drew it, and writes cumulative counters to /dev/shm. scripts/frame_soak.py grades a running service (late frames, freezes, where the time goes) and scripts/render_bench.py the hardware and render path alone. A stall watchdog logs the stacks behind any scroll held up for 250 ms or more (LEDMATRIX_STALL_WATCHDOG_MS lowers that). See docs/SCROLL_PERFORMANCE.md, "Soaking a rig".

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 7f9c73e9aa fix(vegas): smooth Vegas scroll pacing -- whole pixels per refresh, measured refresh, off-thread preview writes (#628)
Vegas scrolls a whole number of pixels per panel refresh, locked to SwapOnVSync, against the refresh the panel really holds (measured from swap gaps), instead of blending sub-pixel positions against the refresh cap. The web preview PNG is encoded off the render thread while scrolling, with writes ordered and retried. On hdpi, late frames fell from 6.3% to 0.7%. See docs/SCROLL_PERFORMANCE.md.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 3967a6cffc fix(security): re-harden root sudo helpers; installer fixes; ARCHITECTURE and PERMISSIONS docs (#640)
* docs: add ARCHITECTURE and PERMISSIONS guides

ARCHITECTURE.md maps the processes, the state the display and web
services share through the cache, the display loop, the plugin system,
the web UI and the update path, with links into the code and a
where-to-start table.

PERMISSIONS.md lists who owns what after install, both sudoers files
(and why iptables is not granted), the polkit rule, and which
scripts/fix_perms script to run as which user.

Both are linked from the docs index, along with the MQTT bridge README
and src/common/README.md.

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

* docs: correct stale setup, service and troubleshooting claims

- README: quick actions run systemctl on ledmatrix.service (run.py), not
  display_controller.py; use_short_date_format has no effect; the
  installer uses system pip with --break-system-packages, not a venv.
- CONFIG_DEBUGGING: LEDMATRIX_DEBUG must be "true"; logs are in journald.
- GETTING_STARTED, WEB_INTERFACE_GUIDE, TROUBLESHOOTING: enabling a
  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.
- CLAUDE.md: PluginStoreManager, plugin_dirs.py, monorepo installs via
  the Trees API with ZIP fallback, requirements.txt is optional.

* 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.

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

* 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.

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

* 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.

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

* 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).

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

* 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.

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

* 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 1fe7237799 refactor(install): generate the web sudoers rules in one place (#622)
* refactor(install): generate the web sudoers rules in one place

/etc/sudoers.d/ledmatrix_web was written by two copies of the same
allow-list: a heredoc in first_time_install.sh Step 10 and a block of
echo lines in scripts/install/configure_web_sudo.sh. They drifted before
(safe_pip_install.sh was granted by one only), and a test existed just
to catch that.

Both now call web_sudoers_rules() from the new
scripts/install/lib_sudoers.sh and keep their own validate (visudo -c),
install and confirm flows.

- first_time_install.sh output is byte-for-byte unchanged, so a device
  re-running the installer gets "already up to date". If the library is
  missing, Step 10 keeps the installed file and carries on, the same way
  it handles rules that fail visudo (an empty file would pass visudo).
- configure_web_sudo.sh now writes the installer's layout: same 18 rules,
  different comments and order. It still leaves out reboot, poweroff and
  journalctl when they are missing; the library does that for both.

The drift test now pins the generator's grants, checks that neither
installer writes rules of its own, and runs each installer's call line
to check the argument order. Tests that read the rule text now read the
library.

* refactor(install): detect the web service user in one function

first_time_install.sh pasted the same WEB_SERVICE_USER detection block
three times (Step 3.1's fallback, the plugin-repos setup and Step 11).
The copies were identical apart from comments; they now call
detect_web_service_user(), whose body is that block unchanged.

Behaviour is the same: the function sets the same global and always
returns 0, as the inline if-chain did. Checked on Linux against all
three original copies across 13 layouts (installed unit with and without
User=, the repo as shipped, each grep branch, template placeholders).

The comment notes that the install_web_service.sh / install_service.sh
greps no longer match anything, so until Step 8 installs the unit the
result is "root". That behaviour is left as it was.

* docs(scroll): explain the tear across the middle on fast scrolls

A 1:32-multiplexed 64-row panel lights row 31 almost a whole refresh after
row 32, so fast scrolls show a sideways offset at mid-height of about
speed x refresh period. Documents the cause, how to read the real refresh
rate (show_refresh_rate prints with a carriage return), what was measured on
a single-chain 2x128x64 Pi 4 (pwm_bits, gpio_slowdown and an uncapped
refresh barely help; gpio_slowdown 2 glitches), and the fix that does help:
fewer pixels per output via parallel chains.

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.

* fix: call forget_manager_fonts through a hasattr check pylint can follow

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.

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.

35 methods on CacheManager, DisplayManager, FontManager and PluginManager

validate_mime_type, validate_numeric_range, validate_string_length and
sanitize_plugin_config had no callers outside their own tests. Only
validate_file_upload (fonts upload) is imported by the web interface.

* refactor(api): remove the music-auth and of-the-day JSON routes

POST /plugins/authenticate/spotify and /plugins/authenticate/ytm had no
caller but their tests: the music plugin authenticates through its
web_ui_actions (authenticate_spotify.py / authenticate_ytm.py) via
/plugins/action.

POST /plugins/of-the-day/json/upload and /json/delete looked the plugin
up by the id ledmatrix-of-the-day (its manifest id is of-the-day), were
reachable only from a file_type "json" upload field that no schema
declares, and put the plugin directory on sys.path per request to
import scripts.update_config. of-the-day manages its files through
plugin-file-manager and its own web_ui_actions.

The of-the-day branch of GET /plugins/config stays: it matches the real
manifest id and still merges the on-disk category files into the form.

* refactor(api): read managers only from the blueprints

api_v3/__init__.py and pages_v3.py declared module globals
(plugin_store_manager, saved_repositories_manager, schema_manager,
operation_queue, plugin_state_manager, operation_history, sync_manager,
config_manager, plugin_manager) that nothing assigns: app.py sets the
managers as attributes on the Blueprint objects, and every route reads
them there. The one reader, backup restore's fallback to the module
plugin_store_manager, could only ever fall back to None.

_ensure_cache_manager() built a second CacheManager in the web process
instead of using the one app.py puts on api_v3. The display routes now
read api_v3.cache_manager, creating it on the blueprint only when
nothing set it (the same None handling as the /cache routes).

* chore(web): drop run.sh and the unused log_config_change

web_interface/run.sh was referenced only by web_interface/README.md;

log_config_change() in web_interface/logging_config.py was never called.

- js/plugins/store_manager.js (window.PluginStoreManager) and
  js/config/diff_viewer.js (window.ConfigDiffViewer) were loaded on every
  page but nothing reads either global.
- htmx-sse.js (plus its CDN fallback) was loaded after HTMX, but no
  template or plugin page uses sse-connect / hx-ext="sse": the live
  streams run through LEDStreams in app-shell.js.

js/plugins/state_manager.js stays: install_manager.js's updateAll()
reads and refreshes window.PluginStateManager.

* refactor(web): remove app.js helpers nothing calls

- hexToRgb, rgbToHex, validateForm, uploadFont and switchTab (whose
  'switch-tab' event had no listener) have no caller in the templates,
  static JS or the plugin monorepo.
- installPlugin: plugins_manager.js (loaded last) assigns
  window.installPlugin, and its own store cards are the only callers.
- The showNotification fallback could never install: app-shell.js is
  deferred ahead of app.js and defines the same fallback at top level.
- performanceMonitor only logged with ?debug=perf and read an unset
  this.measures; the marks it took on every load had no reader.

* refactor(web): drop app-shell.js refreshPlugin

A top-level function in app-shell.js, so a window global, but nothing
calls it (no inline handler, no window lookup, no string-built name).

The other plugin actions in that block stay. updatePlugin is the live
window.updatePlugin: plugins_manager.js only installs its own copy when
none exists. uninstallPlugin/pollUninstallOperation, updateAllPlugins,
executePluginAction and toggleNestedSection are replaced by later
deferred scripts, but a click that lands while those scripts are still
downloading reaches the app-shell copies, so removing them is not a
pure no-op.

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

* refactor(web): remove definitions plugins_manager.js always overrides

All of these are replaced before anything can call them, checked
against the load order in base.html and the live window.* values:

- openOnDemandModal/requestOnDemandStop stubs: the IIFE later in the
  same script assigns the real functions synchronously.
- updatePlugin and uninstallPlugin stubs (`window.X || stub`): app-shell.js
  already defined both, so the fallback never installed. Same for the
  later updatePlugin override, gated on the live function containing
  '[UPDATE]', which app-shell.js's never does.
- The first addArrayObjectItem/removeArrayObjectItem: reassigned by the
  top-level copies after the IIFE.
- The first `function formatDate` in the IIFE: a later declaration of
  the same name in the same scope wins.
- deleteUploadedImage, getCurrentImages, showUploadProgress,
  formatFileSize and getScheduleSummary: character-for-character
  copies of js/widgets/file-upload.js, which stays the owner.
- `typeof X === 'undefined'` fallbacks and `typeof X !== 'undefined'`
  re-exports after the IIFE: always false, or a self-assignment.

* refactor(web): render the shell directly and delete index.html

index.html extended base.html with {% block content %}, but base.html
defines no blocks, so none of index.html ever rendered: rendering both
with jinja2 gives byte-identical output. index() still loaded the config,
read config.json and config_secrets.json raw and json.dumps'd them on
every page load for variables base.html never reads, and flashed errors
that base.html never shows. It now renders base.html with no context.

* fix(web): stop htmx-config.js replacing console.error and console.warn

It swapped both globals for filters that dropped any error mentioning
insertBefore / "Cannot read properties of null" when "htmx" appeared in
the message or stack, and a list of Permissions-Policy warnings. That
hid real errors from every script on the page, and made every logged
error and warning report htmx-config.js as its source. The beforeSwap
target validation above it, which prevents the insertBefore errors in
the first place, stays.

About 30 lines hit the console on every page load: one "... widget

per registration, plus the registry, base widget and plugin loader
announcing themselves. The load-time announcements are removed; the
per-call ones (registry register, plugin widget loads, "Render called")
now go through the page's debugLog switch (localStorage.pluginDebug),
guarded because the widgets also load in node tests without it.
fonts.html and wifi.html debug logging goes through debugLog as well.

- PLUGIN_IMPLEMENTATION_SUMMARY.md invented usage statistics, called
  v2.0.0 current, listed shipped auto-updates as future work and
  documented a BasePlugin.get_config() that does not exist.

  cache_hit_rate, not hit_rate (src/cache/cache_metrics.py).

  tab has Refresh, Update, Uninstall, Save Configuration); plugin config
  hot-reloads (ConfigService + on_config_change), so no restart; the
  schema is found by the fixed name config_schema.json, not a manifest
  config_schema field; the tab row is "Plugin Manager", not "Plugins";
  forms are server-rendered from /v3/partials/plugin-config/<id>; the
  duration hook is get_display_duration()/display_duration; a class_name
  mismatch raises PluginError; the store requires id, name, class_name and
  display_modes (not version); plugin_system.debug/log_level do not exist
  (use run.py -d / LEDMATRIX_DEBUG). Drop "future" features that shipped.
- PLUGIN_CONFIG_CORE_PROPERTIES: list all of CORE_PLUGIN_PROPERTIES,
  including skin, skin_options and the vegas_* tuning keys.
- PLUGIN_CUSTOM_ICONS: icon is only a Font Awesome class (fallback
  fa-puzzle-piece); emoji/URL icons and getPluginIcon() never existed in
  v3. Note that /api/v3/plugins/installed currently omits icon.
- PLUGIN_WEB_UI_ACTIONS (+ example JSON): success_message, error_message

  auto-update; PluginStoreManager() defaults to plugins/, so the Python
  examples pass plugin-repos; registry plugins are downloaded (GitHub API,
  ZIP fallback), not cloned; updates compare version with latest_version.
- PLUGIN_REGISTRY_SETUP_GUIDE: replace the per-plugin-repo + tag
  walkthrough with a short page on the monorepo registry (plugin_path,

- plugin_registry_template.json: use the real entry shape.
- PLUGIN_QUICK_REFERENCE: automatic background updates exist (opt-in);
  registry example and publishing steps use the monorepo, not tags.
- PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT_GUIDE: tags/releases are not read by the store.

* docs(readme): fix the Triple Bonnet mapping, install prerequisites and backup names

- README: the Adafruit Triple Bonnet uses `regular` (3 outputs), not
  `regular-pi1` (1 output) -- src/matrix_support.py MAPPING_OUTPUTS, and
  the README's own hardware_mapping section; the template default mapping
  is adafruit-hat, the PWM mod switches it to adafruit-hat-pwm; manual
  install only needs git up front (first_time_install.sh installs
  python-dev-is-python3, cmake, ninja-build etc.; cython3/scons are not
  used); the Pi Zero 2 W is a supported low-memory board, consistent with
  PRODUCT.md, LOW_MEMORY_BOARDS.md and the installer's low-memory build;
  fix the "First_time_install.sh" spelling, an orphan "2." list item and
  the hello-world starter link (it lives in the plugins monorepo).
- CONFIG_DEBUGGING: automatic backups are
  config/backups/config.json.backup.<YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_ffffff> (five kept),
  not config_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.json.

* docs(dev): correct the test-running and rgbmatrix build instructions

- HOW_TO_RUN_TESTS: coverage is not collected by a plain pytest run and
  pytest.ini has no threshold; the only one is --cov-fail-under=52 in the
  core unit-test job of .github/workflows/test.yml, which runs the whole
  test/ tree (not an allowlist). Almost no tests carry markers, so
  -m integration / -m slow select nothing; drop them and -m unit as the
  quick check. Replace the hardcoded /home/chuck path.
- DEVELOPMENT: the rgbmatrix package is built with pip install . from
  the submodule root (scikit-build-core + CMake + Ninja), as
  first_time_install.sh does; there is no make build-python /
  bindings/python step, and the build deps are python-dev-is-python3,
  cmake and ninja-build, not cython3/scons.

* docs(wifi): the setup AP is open; auto-enable can be turned off without code changes

- WIFI_NETWORK_SETUP / SSH_UNAVAILABLE_AFTER_INSTALL: both AP paths in
  src/wifi_manager.py create an open network and nothing reads
  ap_password, so drop the "ledmatrix123" password and the ap_password
  key/advice.
- SSH_UNAVAILABLE_AFTER_INSTALL: disabling automatic AP mode does not
  need code changes -- auto_enable_ap_mode is a WiFi-tab toggle and
  POST /api/v3/wifi/ap/auto-enable; note the monitor daemon reads
  wifi_config.json at start, so restart it after changing the setting.
  Use the ledpi username and a relative install path like the other docs.

* docs(reference): add auto_update, drop drifted line numbers, fix UI and service details

- CONFIG_REFERENCE: document the top-level auto_update.enabled key (read
  by web_interface/auto_update.py and src/auto_update_setup.py); replace
  drifted file:line references with function names; the template's
  dim_schedule mode is "global".
- ADVANCED_FEATURES: core does not read a per-plugin background_service
  block (the sports plugins read their own), and priority is "higher
  number = higher priority" on FetchRequest but not used for ordering.
- WEB_INTERFACE_GUIDE: the General tab toggle is "Web Display Autostart"
  (web interface service), brightness is 1-100, and config paths are
  relative to the LEDMatrix folder, not /config.

* docs: drop references to code removed in #608

get_installed_plugin_info, WiFiManager's saved_networks and the six
always-skipping plugin test files are deleted there. NetworkManager already
remembers joined networks; LEDMatrix no longer stores WiFi passwords.

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 116abb0daa fix: September 16 core audit — partial saves, asset path safety, auto-update, display settings the library refuses, scroll speed (#595)
* 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
do" (a ZIP-installed monorepo plugin already at the registry version, a
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.

* fix(sports): scoreboard scroll speed no longer follows target_fps

sports_scroll computed the crisp speed ladder against the global
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.

* docs(changelog): note plugin asset, action and inline handler guards

* 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.

* docs(store): search via /plugins/store/list?query=; send Content-Type on registry curls

/plugins/store/search does not exist (404) and the list endpoint reads
query, not q. The registry guide's curl examples omitted the JSON
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.

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

* 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.

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

* 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.

* docs(install): what install_service.sh installs; verify script port; no sudo for --help

install_service.sh installs and starts ledmatrix, ledmatrix-web and the
update-verify units, not only ledmatrix.service (systemd/README.md,
README.md). MIGRATION_GUIDE presented 'sudo install_service.sh --help'
as a harmless check; it now shows --help without sudo and warns what a
real run does. SSH_UNAVAILABLE_AFTER_INSTALL: verify_installation.sh
checks the web interface on port 5000.

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.

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

* 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
  win; build_full_config shallow-merged overrides, dropping sibling
  defaults; the harness extracted defaults differently from the device.
  loading.build_config now uses the device's extraction and preparation,
  and dev_server, check_plugin, render_plugin and the harness all use it.

On Linux Repo.publish() commits with -a, which recorded scripts/run.sh

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 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 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.

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

* 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.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 869e36fb2f feat(web): weekly automatic updates with health check and rollback (#581)
* feat(web): weekly automatic updates with health check and rollback

A General-tab toggle (off by default) checks for and installs LEDMatrix and
plugin updates once a week, overnight in the configured timezone.

- Pre-update checks skip (and report) instead of forcing: local edits or
  commits, merge/live rebase, no upstream, low disk, missing health check, or
  a version that was already rolled back. An abandoned rebase (HEAD back on a
  branch) is cleared, since it would otherwise block every pull.
- The pull reuses the Update Code path (now perform_core_update(), which
  reports dependency install failures as data).
- ledmatrix-update-verify.service, started via a .path unit from a request
  file, restarts the services from its own cgroup, requires them to come up
  and stay up, and otherwise resets to the previous commit and reinstalls the
  previous requirements. It runs a copy of the checker taken before the pull.
- No SSH needed: switching the toggle on restarts the display service, which
  (as root) installs the two units from the repo templates for the web user.
  first_time_install.sh installs them too and takes --enable-auto-update /
  LEDMATRIX_AUTO_UPDATE (passed through by one-shot-install.sh).
- Plugins update after the code passes its check; failures, blocks and
  rollbacks raise an Overview banner and show under the toggle.

Tested end to end on a Pi: web-UI setup, a good update, a broken web service
and a broken display (both rolled back), a blocked local edit, and an
abandoned rebase found on the device.

* chore(auto-update): address static-analysis findings

- Replace the subprocess.CompletedProcess the verifier fabricated for a
  command that could not start with a plain namedtuple; nothing is executed
  there, but the scanner flags any CompletedProcess built from variables.
- Mark the subprocess imports with the repo's standard B404 annotation (all
  calls are list-form argv, no shell).
- Mark the rollback-failed message as not SQL (B608 matched its wording).

* fix(auto-update): CI failures on Linux

- Keep the setup result when chown fails. CI runs as a non-root user, where
  chown to the web user raises; that discarded the result file, so the
  General tab would never learn whether setup worked. Regression test added.
- Register the two new /api/v3/system/auto-update routes in the URL map
  snapshot.
- Use utility classes app.css defines (space-y-1, hover:text-red-600).

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

* fix(auto-update): address review feedback

- Health check: a failed restart command no longer lets the check run
  against the still-running old process; it counts as a failure (and after a
  rollback, as a failed rollback). An unreadable restart count is never
  treated as stable, since a crash loop looks healthy between attempts.
- Installer writes the auto_update setting to a temp file and swaps it in,
  keeping mode and owner, so a running config watcher never reads a
  truncated config.json.
- Verify unit quotes its command-line paths (install folders with spaces);
  setup refuses folder names systemd would reinterpret (%, quotes,
  backslashes, control characters) and says so on the General tab.
- The auto-update status route no longer returns exception text.

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

* fix(auto-update): keep error detail in the status route's 500

test_web_error_detail requires every 5xx handler to log the traceback and
return describe_exception(e), which redacts credentials, so failures are
diagnosable from the web UI. Dropping it for CodeQL broke that policy.

* fix(auto-update): dismiss route rejects non-object JSON with 400

A JSON array or scalar body made `.get('alert_id')` raise, returning 500.

* fix(auto-update): let the app-wide handler answer status-route errors

CodeQL (py/stack-trace-exposure, #709) flagged the route's own except,
which returned describe_exception(e). web_interface/app.py's error handler
already logs the traceback and returns the same redacted detail for any
unhandled exception, so the local copy is removed: same response, no new
exception-to-response flow, and test_web_error_detail's policy still holds.

ChuckandClaude Opus 5 d01da3bd9f fix(scroll): stop timing the idle gap between scrolls as a frame (#582)
ScrollHelper.last_frame_time was set once in __init__ and thereafter only
at the end of log_frame_rate(). Nothing re-armed it when a scroll began, so
the first frame of every scroll was timed against the last frame of the
*previous* one and the whole idle period between them was recorded as a
single frame.

Measured over 3 hours on a 256x64 Pi 4, that produced 31 windows reading

    Scroll frame stats - 0.0 fps over 1 frames | median 136776.02ms
    p95 136776.02ms max 136776.02ms min 136776.02ms | stalls 0 (0.0%)

and -- worse, because it is not obviously wrong -- put the same gap in the
max field of otherwise healthy windows, where the worst values were 537s
and 604s. It also counted as one stall per scroll start: at ~500 frames to
a window that is ~0.2%, against measured stall rates of 0.07-0.16%. The
stall rate is the number used to judge whether a scroll change worked, and
it was the same order of magnitude as its own artefact.

The first frame of a scroll has no predecessor, so it has no frame time.
last_frame_time is now None until one is rendered, and reset_scroll() puts
it back -- the same treatment last_update_time already gets three lines
above, for the same reason. reset_scroll() alone is not enough, because the
scrollers actually emitting these lines never call it, so a sample at or
past the 5s log interval is dropped as well: nothing that renders a scroll
takes that long over one frame. Seeding also restarts the window timer, or
the boundary is already overdue when the second frame arrives and every
scroll opens by reporting a window of exactly one frame. A window whose
samples were all dropped now logs nothing rather than reporting the gap.

docs/SCROLL_PERFORMANCE.md documented the diagnostic in terms of a
"Frame time: N ms" line that 6031e705 replaced with the aggregate, so its
grep matched nothing on any rig. The section now describes the line that is
actually emitted, reads duplicate frames off skips and a below-median
result rather than a 2ms mode, and adds a command that ranks every scroller
by p95 -- verified against 3 hours of journal, where it reproduces
src.base_odds_manager at p95 44.08ms against 10.19ms for the two scrollers
already on src/common/scroll_config.py.

requirements.txt still offered scipy for the sub-pixel interpolation path
deleted in #570. Installing it has no effect; the entry says so.
