feat(pointcloud): GitHub Pages demo with optional live backend (ADR-094) (#495) 

Publishes the live 3D point cloud viewer to gh-pages/pointcloud/ so it
can be linked from the README alongside the Observatory and Dual-Modal
Pose Fusion demos. The viewer auto-selects its transport from URL
parameters:

- default / ?backend=auto — try /api/splats, fall back to synthetic demo
- ?backend=demo — synthetic in-browser only, no network
- ?backend=<url> — fetch from a CORS-permitting host running
  ruview-pointcloud serve
- ?live=1 — strict mode, show offline panel instead of demo fallback

The synthetic frame matches the live API JSON shape (splats, count,
frame, live, pipeline.{skeleton,vitals}) so a single render path drives
both modes. New workflow uses keep_files: true to preserve the existing
observatory/, pose-fusion/, and nvsim/ deployments on gh-pages.

See docs/adr/ADR-094-pointcloud-github-pages-deployment.md for the full
decision record and 6 acceptance gates.

Hosted at: https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/pointcloud/
## Modes
- Default — synthetic in-browser demo (no backend, no network calls).
- `?backend=auto` — fetch from `/api/splats` on the same origin
(only works when the viewer is served by `ruview-pointcloud serve`).
- `?backend=<url>` — fetch from `<url>/api/splats` on a CORS-permitting
host (e.g. `?backend=https://my-ruview.example.com`).
- `?live=1` — require a live backend; show an offline message instead
of falling back to the synthetic demo.
See ADR-094 for the deployment design.

# ADR-094: Live 3D Point Cloud Viewer — GitHub Pages Deployment with Optional Real-Data Stream
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| **Status** | Proposed (2026-04-29) |
| **Date** | 2026-04-29 |
| **Authors** | ruv |

| **Branch** | `feat/pointcloud-pages-demo` |
---
## 1. Context
The `wifi-densepose-pointcloud` crate ships a Three.js-based viewer
(`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-pointcloud/src/viewer.html`) that renders the
fused camera-depth + WiFi CSI + mmWave point cloud produced by the
`ruview-pointcloud serve` binary. Today the viewer is local-only:
- It is served by the Axum binary on `127.0.0.1:9880`.
- It polls `/api/splats` every 500 ms expecting a backend on the same
origin.
- There is no GitHub Pages deployment, so the README's
"▶ Live 3D Point Cloud" link points at the moved-content section in
`docs/readme-details.md`, not at a hosted demo. The two sibling demos
(Live Observatory, Dual-Modal Pose Fusion) are already hosted at
`https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/` and `…/pose-fusion.html`.
This is an asymmetry: a first-time visitor can preview the WiFi pose
demo and the Observatory in one click, but cannot preview the point
cloud without cloning the repo, building Rust, plugging in an ESP32,
and pointing a webcam at themselves. That gap suppresses the most
visually compelling demonstration of the v0.7+ sensor-fusion work.
A naive fix — drop the static HTML at `gh-pages/pointcloud/` — does
not work because the viewer's `fetch("/api/splats")` will 404 on Pages
and the canvas will hang at "Loading…". A second naive fix — bake in a
fixed sample dataset — solves the loading state but loses the live-data
story entirely, and forks the viewer into a "demo build" and a "real
build" that drift apart.
## 2. Decision
Ship **one** viewer that auto-selects its transport from URL parameters,
and publish it to `gh-pages/pointcloud/` alongside the other demos:
1. **Default mode** — when the viewer is opened with no query parameters
on `https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/pointcloud/`, render a synthetic
in-browser scene (floor grid, walls, breathing/swaying figure, animated
17-keypoint skeleton) and label the badge `● DEMO Synthetic`. No
network calls are made. Renders forever, deterministic, ~200 splats.
2. **Auto mode** (`?backend=auto`) — fetch from `/api/splats` on the same
origin. This is the local-development case (`ruview-pointcloud serve`
serves the viewer and the API together). On any failure (404, network
error, CORS), fall back silently to synthetic-demo rendering so the
tab never dies.
3. **Remote mode** (`?backend=<url>`) — fetch from `<url>/api/splats`. The
user supplies a CORS-permitting host running their own
`ruview-pointcloud serve` (e.g. a Tailscale-exposed home node). Badge
reads `● REMOTE <url>`. Same silent demo fallback on failure.
4. **Strict-live mode** (`?live=1`) — disable the demo fallback. If the
chosen transport fails, replace the info panel with an explicit offline
message (`● OFFLINE — Live backend required but unreachable`). Useful
for embedding the viewer in a status page or kiosk.
The synthetic frame returned by the in-browser generator matches the
JSON shape of the live `/api/splats` payload exactly (`splats`, `count`,
`frame`, `live`, `pipeline.{skeleton,vitals,…}`), so a single render path
drives both modes. There is no demo build vs real build — only one HTML
file, one render path, and one set of bugs.
A new GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/pointcloud-pages.yml`)
copies the viewer to `gh-pages/pointcloud/index.html` on every push to
`main` that touches the viewer, using `peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v4`
with `keep_files: true` to preserve the existing observatory, pose-fusion,
and nvsim deployments.
## 3. Consequences
### Positive
- **First-click demo.** Visitors clicking the README's
"▶ Live 3D Point Cloud" link land on a working Three.js scene in <1 s,
no toolchain required. Matches the parity of the other two demos.
- **Real-data on demand.** Users with their own `ruview-pointcloud serve`
host can use the same hosted viewer URL with
`?backend=https://their-host.example.com` — no clone, no rebuild. The
hosted demo doubles as a thin client for self-hosted backends.
- **Single render path.** Synthetic frames flow through the same
`handleData → updateSplats → drawSkeleton` pipeline as live frames, so
visual regressions surface in the demo and the live build at the same
time. This is the same dual-transport pattern ADR-092 chose for nvsim.
- **No backend deploy required.** Pages serves static HTML; the demo
works without standing up an Axum host on the public internet, and
there is no per-visitor CSI/camera plumbing to provision.
- **Preserves existing deployments.** `keep_files: true` plus the
`pointcloud/` destination means observatory/, pose-fusion/, nvsim/,
and the root index.html on gh-pages are untouched.
### Negative / tradeoffs
- **Synthetic ≠ real.** The demo figure is procedural, not recorded from
hardware, so visitors cannot see *real* CSI-derived poses without
supplying `?backend=`. We accept this — the alternatives (pre-recorded
JSON, on-page WASM inference) add maintenance cost and diverge the
render path.
- **CORS burden on remote mode.** Users who want to share their backend
must add `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://ruvnet.github.io` (or
`*`) to their `ruview-pointcloud serve` config. We document this in the
workflow's generated README; we do **not** add a public proxy.
- **Synthetic generator lives in the viewer.** ~80 LOC of procedural JS
is now part of `viewer.html`. Acceptable: the file is already the
client-side render bundle, and the generator is bounded and inert
(deterministic, no I/O, no eval).
- **No replay-from-recording in this ADR.** A future ADR may add a
`?recording=<url>.jsonl` mode that replays captured frames at native
rate; that is out of scope here.
### Neutral
- The local-dev experience is unchanged. `ruview-pointcloud serve` still
serves `viewer.html` from the bundled asset and the viewer still hits
`/api/splats` because `?backend` defaults to `auto`. Nothing in the
Rust crate changes — this is HTML + workflow only.
## 4. Implementation
| File | Change |
|---|---|
| `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-pointcloud/src/viewer.html` | Add URL-param transport selector (`backend`, `live`), synthetic frame generator, demo-fallback path, transport-aware mode badge. ~120 LOC added, no removed behavior. |
| `.github/workflows/pointcloud-pages.yml` | New workflow: stage viewer to `_site/pointcloud/index.html`, deploy to `gh-pages/pointcloud/` with `keep_files: true`. Triggers on viewer changes and on manual dispatch. |
| `README.md` | Already updated — `▶ Live 3D Point Cloud` link will be retargeted to `https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/pointcloud/` once the first deploy succeeds. (Tracked separately, not blocking this ADR.) |
| `docs/adr/README.md` | ADR index — add ADR-094 row. |
## 5. Acceptance Gates
This ADR is **Implemented** when all of the following hold:
1. Pushing to `main` with a viewer change triggers
`pointcloud-pages.yml`, which deploys to `gh-pages/pointcloud/` in
under 60 seconds.
2. `https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/pointcloud/` loads, renders the
synthetic scene, displays `● DEMO Synthetic` badge, and shows
non-zero splat + frame counts.
3. Existing demos at `https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/` and
`…/pose-fusion.html` and `…/nvsim/` are still reachable after the
first deploy (smoke-tested manually).
4. `https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/pointcloud/?live=1` shows the
`● OFFLINE` panel (because no same-origin backend exists on Pages).
5. `https://ruvnet.github.io/RuView/pointcloud/?backend=https://example.invalid`
falls back to demo within one poll interval (~500 ms) without
throwing in the console.
6. Running `./target/release/ruview-pointcloud serve` locally and
opening `http://127.0.0.1:9880/` (which serves the same HTML) still
shows live-mode rendering with the `● LIVE Local Backend` badge.
## 6. Out of Scope
- Replaying recorded JSONL frames in the browser (future ADR).
- WASM-side execution of the fusion pipeline in the browser (would
require porting the camera + mmWave path; deferred).
- Authentication / signed splats payloads — backend-side concern,
unaffected by this client-side change.
- Hosting a public CORS proxy for users without their own backend.
