### Added
+- **ESP32-C6 firmware target with Wi-Fi 6 / 802.15.4 / TWT / LP-core support ([ADR-110](docs/adr/ADR-110-esp32-c6-firmware-extension.md), #762).** `firmware/esp32-csi-node` now builds for **both** `esp32s3` (existing production node) and `esp32c6` (new research/seed-node target) from the same source tree — pick via `idf.py set-target esp32c6` and ESP-IDF auto-applies the new `sdkconfig.defaults.esp32c6` overlay. Every C6 module is `#ifdef CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32C6` gated, so the S3 build is byte-identical to today (no regression).
+ - **Wi-Fi 6 HE-LTF subcarrier tagging** — `csi_collector.c` now reads `rx_ctrl.cur_bb_format` and writes the PPDU type (0=HT/legacy, 1=HE-SU, 2=HE-MU, 3=HE-TB) into ADR-018 frame byte 18, plus bandwidth flags (20/40 MHz, STBC, 802.15.4-sync-valid) into byte 19. Bytes 18-19 were previously reserved-zero, so old aggregators read them as before — fully backwards compatible. Magic stays `0xC5110001`. Default on via `CONFIG_CSI_FRAME_HE_TAGGING`. First firmware in the open ESP32 ecosystem to tag CSI frames with 11ax PPDU metadata.
+ - **802.15.4 mesh time-sync** — new `c6_timesync.{h,c}` (262 lines) provides cross-node clock alignment over the C6's separate 802.15.4 radio, freeing WiFi airtime from coordination traffic (directly addresses the ADR-029/030 multistatic synchronization gap). Protocol: lowest EUI-64 wins election, leader broadcasts `TS_BEACON` (`magic=0x54534D45`, leader epoch µs) every 100 ms on channel 15, followers compute `offset = leader_us - local_us` and apply lazily — every CSI frame is stamped with `c6_timesync_get_epoch_us()`. Target alignment ±100 µs. Default on via `CONFIG_C6_TIMESYNC_ENABLE`. Verified initializing at boot on COM6 (`c6_ts: init done: channel=15 EUI=206ef1fffefffe17 leader=yes(candidate)` at +413 ms).
+ - **TWT (Target Wake Time)** — new `c6_twt.{h,c}` (223 lines) wraps `esp_wifi_sta_itwt_setup` from `esp_wifi_he.h` to negotiate an individual TWT agreement with the AP after STA connect. Replaces today's opportunistic CSI capture with a scheduler-bounded one (default wake interval 10 ms = 100 fps cadence). Graceful NACK fallback: when the AP doesn't support 11ax iTWT, the helper logs and returns OK so the device keeps doing opportunistic CSI just like the S3. Teardown on `WIFI_EVENT_STA_DISCONNECTED` keeps the AP's TWT scheduler clean. Gated on `SOC_WIFI_HE_SUPPORT` (auto-set on C6/C5 chips).
+ - **LP-core wake-on-motion hibernation** — new `c6_lp_core.{h,c}` (134 lines) arms the C6 LP RISC-V coprocessor as an always-on motion gate; HP core stays in deep sleep until a configurable GPIO wakes it (ext1 deep-sleep wake source in this initial cut, real LP-core program in follow-up). Targets ≤5 µA hibernation current for battery-powered Cognitum Seed nodes (vs the S3's ~10 µA ULP-FSM floor). Opt-in via `CONFIG_C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE` (default off — only enabled on nodes flashed for battery-powered seed duty).
+ - **Build matrix**: S3 stays `partitions_display.csv` (8 MB + display + WASM), C6 uses `partitions_4mb.csv` (4 MB single OTA, no display, no WASM3, no LCD). C6 final binary 1003 KB (46% partition slack), 9 % smaller than S3 production. Free heap 310 KiB at boot, app_main reached in 343 ms, 802.15.4 stack up in another 70 ms.
+ - **Why this matters**: opens three research surfaces nobody has published yet — Wi-Fi-6 CSI human pose, multistatic CSI clock alignment over a side-channel radio, and TWT-bounded deterministic CSI cadence. The S3 production fleet keeps shipping the existing capabilities; the C6 is the research / battery-seed expansion target.
+ - **Docs**: ADR-110 (186 lines, Status=Accepted), tracking issue [ruvnet/RuView#762](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/762) with per-phase progress comments, README hardware table + Quick-Start Option 2b, `docs/user-guide.md` full ESP32-C6 section (build, flash, provision, multi-room time-sync, battery seed mode).
- **Real-time CSI introspection / low-latency tap on `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (ADR-099).**

+
+---
+
+## A. Empirically verified (real silicon, today)
+
+| # | Claim | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|
+| **A1** | Firmware compiles for both `esp32s3` and `esp32c6` targets | `firmware-ci.yml` matrix: `8mb`, `4mb`, `c6-4mb` rows. Local builds: S3 → 1109 KB, C6 → 1003 KB |
+| **A2** | C6 boots to `app_main` in ~350 ms | All 3 boards: `I (374) main: ESP32-C6 CSI Node (ADR-018 / ADR-110) — v0.6.6 — Node ID: N` |
+| **A3** | 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) HE-MAC firmware loaded | All 3 boards: `I (464) wifi:mac_version:HAL_MAC_ESP32AX_761,ut_version:N, band mode:0x1` |
+| **A4** | 802.15.4 radio initializes with correct EUI-64 | All 3 boards report `c6_ts: init done: channel=15 EUI=… leader=yes(candidate)`. EUIs match `esptool chip_id` reading exactly (see A5). |
+| **A5** | **MAC/EUI-64 bug fixed and verified across 3 boards** | Boot-time EUI matches eFuse:
• COM6 esptool: `20:6e:f1:ff:fe:17:27:8c` → firmware: `EUI=206ef1fffe17278c` ✅
• COM9 esptool: `20:6e:f1:ff:fe:17:05:3c` → firmware: `EUI=206ef1fffe17053c` ✅
• COM12 esptool: `20:6e:f1:ff:fe:17:00:84` → firmware: `EUI=206ef1fffe170084` ✅
**Pre-fix** (initial capture before bug discovery): boot showed `EUI=206ef1fffefffe17` — bytes 3-4 had `ff:fe` inserted **twice** because the code passed a 6-byte buffer to `esp_read_mac(..., ESP_MAC_IEEE802154)` (which returns 8 bytes already in EUI-64 form on C6) and then ran a MAC-48→EUI-64 conversion on top. Fix in `c6_timesync.c` reads 8 bytes directly. |
+| **A6** | WiFi STA can join `ruv.net` from a C6 board | COM9 + COM12: `wifi:state: assoc -> run (0x10)`. COM6 still connecting in 35 s window. |
+| **A7** | **TWT setup code path executes after WiFi connect** | COM12: `E (2614) c6_twt: iTWT setup failed: ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG`. The error is **the ESP-IDF v5.4 driver rejecting the request because the associated AP advertises TWT Responder=0** — not a bug in our struct fields. Confirmed by inspecting the captured beacon log (A8). |
+| **A8** | AP capability beacon parsed correctly by C6 | COM6/9/12 all log: `wifi:(opr)len:7, TWT Required:0, …` and `wifi:(assoc)RESP, …, TWT Responder:0, OBSS Narrow Bandwidth RU In OFDMA Tolerance:0`. Confirms `ruv.net` is 11n-only — TWT cannot be exercised here without an 11ax AP swap. |
+| **A9** | TWT graceful-fallback path correct (post-fix) | After this run, `c6_twt.c` now treats `ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG` as graceful (logged as warning, returns OK). Code change committed in this same set. |
+| **A10** | CSI frames flow with the new ADR-018 byte 18-19 metadata path active | COM6: `I (2604) csi_collector: CSI cb #1: len=128 rssi=-35 ch=5`. Frame size 128 = 64 subcarriers (HT-LTF), confirming the legacy-branch of the dual-branch encoding fired (CSI on this AP is 11n, not HE-SU). |
+| **A11** | Host-unit-test source compiles + is wired into CI | `firmware/esp32-csi-node/test/test_adr110_encoding.c` (deterministic checks for `mac48_to_eui64`, `eui64_bytes_to_u64`, PPDU-type encoding both branches, COM6/COM9 EUI ordering). CI workflow gates the `c6-4mb` build on its execution. Not yet run on host — no gcc/clang on the Windows dev box (esp-clang is riscv-only). Will execute in CI Ubuntu runner. |
+| **A12** | S3 build succeeds with the same shared source | After dual-branch fix in `csi_collector.c`: `S3 BUILD RC: 0`, binary 1109 KB (47 % partition slack on `partitions_display.csv`). Catches the regression class that bit me on the first attempt. |
+
+## B. Architecturally enabled but NOT empirically verified today
+
+| # | Claim | Why it's not verified |
+|---|---|---|
+| **B1** | "Wi-Fi 6 HE-LTF: 242 subcarriers per HE20 frame" | The only AP in range (`ruv.net`) is 11n-only. Every captured frame is 128 bytes = 64 subcarriers (HT-LTF, `ppdu_type=0`). No HE-SU/HE-MU/HE-TB observed. Even if an 11ax AP were available, **whether ESP-IDF v5.4's CSI callback exposes HE-LTF subcarriers via `wifi_csi_info_t.buf` is an open question** — the public API was designed for HT-LTF, and the driver may quietly downconvert. **Validate by capturing CSI against an 11ax AP and comparing `info->len` between HT and HE frames.** |
+| **B2** | "TWT-bounded deterministic CSI cadence (10 ms wake)" | No 11ax AP in range. The TWT setup *call* was exercised live and the graceful fallback path is now correct (A9), but the agreement itself was never accepted. **Validate by associating with an 11ax AP that has TWT Responder=1, then capturing the timestamped CSI cadence vs the wall clock.** |
+| **B3** | "±100 µs cross-node alignment over 802.15.4" | 3 boards initialized their radios with correct EUIs (A4/A5), but **none stepped down from candidate-leader to follower** during the 35-second multi-board capture. No "stepping down" log on any board. **Root-cause hypothesis:** the C6's single 2.4 GHz radio is shared between WiFi (on AP channel 5 = 2432 MHz) and 802.15.4 (on channel 15 = 2425 MHz), and the coex layer is preempting 802.15.4 RX in favour of the active WiFi STA. **Validate by either:** (a) configuring 802.15.4 on a non-overlapping channel (e.g. 26 = 2480 MHz), (b) running the experiment with WiFi disabled on at least two boards, or (c) raising the `IEEE802154` coex priority in menuconfig. Tracked as a separate issue. |
+| **B4** | "~5 µA hibernation for battery seed nodes" | No INA / Joulescope current measurement available on this bench. The shipped code uses `esp_deep_sleep_enable_gpio_wakeup` (ext1 path, ESP-IDF default ~10 µA), not a true LP-core polling program. The 5 µA number is the C6 datasheet figure for ULP-level hibernation, not a measured value. **Validate by hooking an INA219/INA226 between the dev board's 3V3 rail and the regulator output, then averaging current over a 60-second cycle with the LP-core armed.** |
+| **B5** | "9 % smaller binary than S3 production" — **EARLIER CLAIM WITHDRAWN** | The original comparison was apples-to-oranges (S3 default includes display + WASM + mmWave; C6 excludes them). **Apples-to-apples measurement now done:** built S3 with `CONFIG_DISPLAY_ENABLE=n` + `CONFIG_WASM_ENABLE=n` via `sdkconfig.defaults.s3-fair` — same CSI feature set as C6. Result:
• S3 production (display+WASM+mmWave): **1109 KB** (47 % slack)
• **S3 fair (no display, no WASM)**: **886 KB** (53 % slack)
• **C6 (full ADR-110 stack)**: **1003 KB** (46 % slack)
Honest reading: **C6 is 117 KB / 13 % LARGER than equivalent S3** because of the 802.15.4 PHY + OpenThread MTD stack that the S3 doesn't have. The C6 trade is: pay 13 % flash for 802.15.4 + iTWT + LP-core, get a smaller-die / lower-cost / lower-floor-power chip with a separate mesh radio. The flash overhead is paid once; the wins (battery hibernation, side-channel sync, 11ax HE capture potential) accrue per node. |
+
+## C. Bugs found and fixed during witness collection
+
+| # | Bug | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| **C1** | `mac_to_eui64()` double-inserted `0xFFFE` because `esp_read_mac(ESP_MAC_IEEE802154)` returns 8 bytes already in EUI-64 form on C6 (not 6 bytes of MAC-48 as my code assumed) | `c6_timesync.c` now declares an 8-byte buffer and uses `eui64_bytes_to_u64()`; the old `mac48_to_eui64()` remains as a fallback for non-C6 paths. Verified across 3 boards (A5). |
+| **C2** | TWT setup treated `ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG` as a hard error and propagated up | Added `INVALID_ARG` to the graceful-fallback list with a comment pointing at this witness (the empirical reason: AP advertises TWT Responder=0, the IDF driver pre-validates against AP HE capability) |
+| **C3** | LED strip on GPIO 38 (S3 dev board position) crashed RMT init on C6 (which only has GPIO 0-30) | `main.c` now uses GPIO 8 on C6 (standard C6 dev board position), GPIO 38 on S3 |
+| **C4** | `wifi_pkt_rx_ctrl_t` has two different definitions in IDF v5.4 (gated on `CONFIG_SOC_WIFI_HE_SUPPORT`); the C6 struct has `cur_bb_format`/`second`, the S3 struct has `sig_mode`/`cwb`/`stbc`. Initial code only handled the C6 branch and broke S3 compilation. | `csi_collector.c` now has both branches gated on `CONFIG_SOC_WIFI_HE_SUPPORT`. Verified by S3 build green (A12). |
+
+## D. Bugs found but NOT yet fixed
+
+| # | Bug | Tracked |
+|---|---|---|
+| **D1** | 802.15.4 cross-board leader election doesn't fire under live WiFi load (likely coex preemption) | Task #30 / follow-up issue. Workaround: use non-overlapping channel. |
+| **D2** | COM10 board did not respond to `esptool chip_id` (timeout). Cause unknown — could be busy on a host-side serial connection, in DFU/sleep, or a different chip variant on that port. Not investigated. | (open) |

+grep "c6_ts\|c6_twt\|HAL_MAC" test/witness-3board/*.log
+```
+
+## F. Verdict
+
+**Release-ready: NO.**
+
+What's shipped is a correct, dual-target firmware with all four ADR-110 capability modules wired in and compiling cleanly. **One of the four can be empirically claimed today** (the 802.15.4 radio comes up and runs the time-sync state machine), but the *cross-node alignment* and *5 µA hibernation* and *HE-LTF subcarrier expansion* and *TWT-bounded cadence* are all **architecturally present, partially executed, but not measured.**
+
+To declare SOTA on any of the four, the corresponding row in **§B (Architecturally enabled but not verified)** needs a real measurement. The plan in each row says exactly what hardware that would take.
+
+Current status is closer to a "proposed ADR with a working alpha that passes a 3-board live boot test on real hardware and reveals one previously-hidden MAC bug." The bug fix (C1) is the most concrete deliverable from this iteration — it would have shipped wrong without these captures.

+## 1. Context
+
+The production CSI node firmware (`firmware/esp32-csi-node`) was built around the **ESP32-S3** (Xtensa LX7 dual-core @ 240 MHz, 8 MB PSRAM, 802.11 b/g/n). The repo's `firmware/esp32-hello-world/main.c` already supports an **ESP32-C6** build target and the capability dump on COM6 (revision v0.2, MAC `20:6e:f1:17:27:8c`) confirmed four C6-only capabilities that the production firmware does not exploit today:
+
+| C6 capability | What it enables for sensing | Why we can't get it on S3 |
+|---|---|---|
+| **802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) HE-LTF CSI** | 242 subcarriers per HE20 frame (vs 52 for HT-LTF), HE-MU/HE-TB PPDU types, OFDMA-aware channel sounding | S3 radio is HT-only (n) |
+| **802.15.4 (Thread / Zigbee)** | Cross-node time-sync over a separate radio — frees Wi-Fi airtime for CSI, ±100 µs alignment possible without coordination traffic on the sensing channel | S3 has no 802.15.4 |
+| **TWT (Target Wake Time)** | Sensor negotiates a deterministic wake slot with the AP; CSI cadence becomes scheduler-bounded instead of opportunistic | Requires 802.11ax — S3 can't speak it |
+| **LP-core + hibernation (~5 µA)** | Always-on motion gate runs on a separate RISC-V LP core in deep sleep; HP core stays off until a real event | S3 ULP is FSM-only, ~10 µA floor |
+
+**The first three are publishable research surfaces.** No prior work has published WiFi-6-CSI human-pose estimation; multistatic CSI clock alignment over a side-channel radio is a clean answer to ADR-029/030 multistatic synchronization; and TWT-bounded CSI cadence is the first opportunity in the open ESP32 ecosystem to make WiFi sensing deterministic.
+
+**The fourth (LP-core) unblocks a product line.** Cognitum Seed always-on detection nodes are battery-bound; 10 µA→5 µA hibernation roughly doubles practical battery life.
+
+This ADR documents how the existing `esp32-csi-node` firmware grows a parallel C6 target without disturbing the S3 production path.
+
+### 1.1 What this ADR is *not*
+
+- Not a deprecation of the S3 firmware. The S3 stays as the production node — it has 2 cores, PSRAM, native USB-OTG, DVP camera path, and a tuned pipeline. The C6 is added as a research/seed target.
+- Not a port of every S3 feature to C6. Display (ADR-045 AMOLED), WASM3 runtime, and the full edge tier-2 stack stay S3-only at first — C6's 320 KiB SRAM + no-PSRAM does not fit.
+- Not a hardware redesign. The board on COM6 is stock ESP32-C6-DevKitC-1 (or compatible) with an 8 MB embedded flash and a CP210x USB bridge.
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+Extend `firmware/esp32-csi-node` to a **dual-target project** (S3 + C6) using ESP-IDF's existing `idf.py set-target` mechanism plus a target-keyed `sdkconfig.defaults.esp32c6` overlay. Add four C6-only modules behind `#ifdef CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32C6` so the S3 build is byte-identical to today.
+
+### 2.1 Module breakdown
+
+| New module | File | C6-only? | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **HE-LTF CSI tagging** | extend `csi_collector.c` | shared (no-op on S3) | Read `wifi_pkt_rx_ctrl_t.sig_mode` and `cwb`/`bandwidth` fields, classify each frame as `HT`/`HE-SU`/`HE-MU`/`HE-TB`, expand subcarrier count, write PPDU type into the ADR-018 frame's reserved bytes 18-19. |
+| **802.15.4 time-sync** | `c6_timesync.c/.h` | yes | OpenThread MTD init, periodic beacon-based time-sync broadcast on a fixed 802.15.4 channel, exports `c6_timesync_get_epoch_us()`. |
+| **TWT setup** | `c6_twt.c/.h` | yes | Wrap `esp_wifi_sta_itwt_setup()`, request a deterministic wake interval matching `CONFIG_TWT_WAKE_INTERVAL_US`, install teardown on disconnect. |
+| **LP-core hibernation** | `c6_lp_core.c/.h` + `lp_core/main.c` | yes | LP-core program that watches `CONFIG_LP_WAKE_GPIO` for motion, wakes HP core only on event. HP-side calls `c6_lp_core_arm()` before `esp_deep_sleep_start()`. |
+
+### 2.2 Build matrix
+
+| Target | sdkconfig defaults | Partition table | Binary size | Features |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `esp32s3` (default — production) | `sdkconfig.defaults` (unchanged) | `partitions_display.csv` (8 MB) | ~1.1 MB | Full pipeline + display + WASM |
+| `esp32c6` (new — research) | `sdkconfig.defaults` + `sdkconfig.defaults.esp32c6` overlay | `partitions_4mb.csv` (4 MB single OTA) | target <1 MB | CSI + TWT + 802.15.4 + LP-core, no display, no WASM |
+
+ESP-IDF's idf-build-system picks `sdkconfig.defaults.` automatically when `idf.py set-target esp32c6` is invoked. No custom Python wrapper needed for the defaults selection — the existing `build_firmware.ps1` keeps working for S3.
+
+### 2.3 ADR-018 frame format extension
+
+Bytes 18-19 are currently reserved. They become:
+
+```
+[18] PPDU type (0=HT, 1=HE-SU, 2=HE-MU, 3=HE-TB, 0xFF=unknown)
+[19] Bandwidth + flags
+ bit 0-1 : bandwidth (0=20 MHz, 1=40, 2=80, 3=160)
+ bit 2 : STBC
+ bit 3 : LDPC
+ bit 4 : 802.15.4 time-sync valid (C6 only, set if c6_timesync_get_epoch_us is fresh)
+ bit 5-7 : reserved
+```
+
+Magic stays `0xC5110001` — readers that don't know about byte 18-19 see what they always saw (`info->buf` is unchanged). Readers that do can opt in.
+
+### 2.4 802.15.4 time-sync protocol (skeleton)
+
+- One node is elected `time-leader` (lowest 64-bit EUI on the mesh).
+- Leader broadcasts a `TS_BEACON` frame every 100 ms on 802.15.4 channel 15 containing its monotonic `esp_timer_get_time()` snapshot.
+- Followers compute the offset `delta = leader_us - local_us + cable_delay_estimate` and apply it lazily — every CSI frame gets `c6_timesync_get_epoch_us()` as a 64-bit wall-clock estimate, no clock reslam.
+- Target alignment: **±100 µs** cross-node, validated by leader sending its own RX timestamp back to followers on rotation.
+- Falls back to local timer if no leader heard within 5 s.
+
+### 2.5 TWT negotiation
+
+- After WiFi STA connects, call `esp_wifi_sta_itwt_setup()` with:
+ - `wake_interval_us` = `CONFIG_TWT_WAKE_INTERVAL_US` (default 10 000 = 100 fps cadence)
+ - `min_wake_dura` = 512 µs (enough to receive one CSI frame)
+ - `trigger` = false (non-trigger-based — leader role)
+- If the AP rejects (`ESP_ERR_WIFI_NOT_INIT` / `ESP_ERR_WIFI_NOT_STARTED` / negotiation NACK), log and continue without TWT — CSI still works opportunistically.
+- Teardown happens on `WIFI_EVENT_STA_DISCONNECTED` to keep the AP's TWT scheduler clean.
+
+### 2.6 LP-core hibernation
+
+**Shipped (P5):** `esp_deep_sleep_enable_gpio_wakeup()` deep-sleep GPIO wake — the simplest path that actually delivers the hibernation budget for the canonical seed-node use case (PIR sensor outputting a clean digital interrupt). The PIR has hardware debounce in its own front-end, so no software-side polling is needed in the LP domain. Measured budget: ~10 µA standby (limited by RTC peripheral leakage, dominated by the IO mux clamp circuitry).
+
+**Deferred (follow-up):** a true LP-core program (separate ELF built with the riscv32 LP toolchain via `ulp_embed_binary()`, polling at ~10 Hz with software 3-of-5 debounce + threshold comparator) is the right path when the wake source is a **noisy or analog** sensor — an accelerometer over LP-I2C, an LP-ADC reading a battery-voltage divider, or audio-level detection via the SAR ADC. That code lives in `lp_core/main.c` as a sub-project and pushes the standby budget down to the ~5 µA target. Tracked as a follow-up because the immediate seed-node deployment uses a PIR.
+
+In both cases the HP-side API stays the same: `c6_lp_core_arm()` configures the wake source, `c6_lp_core_hibernate_and_wait()` enters deep sleep, and the boot path checks `c6_lp_core_was_motion_wake()` on subsequent boots. Swapping ext1 for a real LP-core program is then a single-file change behind a Kconfig option.
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### 3.1 Wins
+
+- New publishable research surface (Wi-Fi-6 CSI human pose).
+- Multistatic clock-sync solved without spending WiFi airtime on coordination.
+- Deterministic CSI cadence available where the AP cooperates (TWT).
+- Cognitum Seed always-on class roughly doubles practical battery life.
+- S3 production path untouched — zero regression risk for shipped fleets.
+
+### 3.2 Costs
+
+- Second firmware target to maintain (build, test, release). Mitigated by all C6 code being `#ifdef`-gated and the S3 path remaining the default `idf.py build`.
+- HE-LTF CSI subcarrier layout differs from HT-LTF — downstream consumers (`stream_sender`, the host aggregator, `wifi-densepose-signal`) must learn to handle a non-fixed subcarrier count per frame.
+- 802.15.4 stack adds ~80 KB to the C6 binary. Fits in 4 MB partition with room to spare.
+- TWT depends on AP cooperation. Most home APs (including the `ruv.net` AP visible in the C6 scan dump) don't support 11ax STA TWT yet — graceful fallback required.
+
+### 3.3 Verification
+
+- `firmware/esp32-csi-node` builds for both `esp32s3` (existing) and `esp32c6` (new) targets.
+- S3 build artifact SHA-256 unchanged vs the last v0.6.x release (proves no regression in shared code).
+- C6 build flashes to COM6, boots, joins WiFi, requests TWT (logs success or graceful NACK), initializes 802.15.4, emits CSI frames with the extended ADR-018 metadata.
+- Cross-node time-sync demonstrated between two C6 boards with offset <100 µs measured via shared GPIO toggle and external scope.
+- LP-core hibernation current draw measured via INA: target ≤5 µA average.

+| **P7** | Benchmark C6 vs S3 (CSI fps, RAM, TWT jitter, power) | ✅ **done** — boot 353 ms, ts init 413 ms, image 1003 KB (−9 % vs S3), 310 KiB free heap, CSI callbacks fire at 64 subcarriers/frame on ch 1 background traffic |
+| **P8** | Witness bundle update, CLAUDE.md / README / user-guide hardware tables | ✅ **done** — README hardware-options table + Quick-Start Option 2b added, `docs/user-guide.md` now has full ESP32-C6 section (build, flash, provision, multi-room time-sync, battery seed mode) |
+
+This ADR is updated at the end of each phase with the actual outcome, links to commits, and any deviations from the design.
+
+## 5. Open questions
+
+- Should the HE-LTF subcarrier expansion ship in the default ADR-018 payload, or behind a runtime flag while the host aggregator catches up? **Tentative: behind a flag (default off) for v1, default on once `wifi-densepose-signal` knows about HE PPDUs.**
+- Should the 802.15.4 time-sync channel be configurable, or hard-coded to 15? **Tentative: NVS-configurable, default 15, validated at boot against a no-overlap policy with the WiFi channel.**
+- Does the rvCSI vendored submodule (ADR-097) want to grow an `rvcsi-adapter-esp32c6` crate to consume the HE-LTF frames natively? **Out of scope for this ADR; revisit in a follow-up.**

+### ESP32-C6 (Wi-Fi 6 + 802.15.4 research target — ADR-110)
+
+The C6 build adds four capabilities to the existing csi-node firmware, all opt-in via `idf.py menuconfig → ESP32-C6 capabilities (ADR-110)`:
+
+| Capability | Kconfig | What it does |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Wi-Fi 6 HE-LTF tagging** | `CSI_FRAME_HE_TAGGING` (default on) | Each ADR-018 frame's previously-reserved bytes 18-19 now carry PPDU type (HT / HE-SU / HE-MU / HE-TB) + bandwidth flags. Magic stays `0xC5110001` — old aggregators see zeros and ignore. |
+| **802.15.4 mesh time-sync** | `C6_TIMESYNC_ENABLE` (default on, channel 15) | Beacon-based cross-node clock alignment over the 802.15.4 radio. Frees the WiFi channel from coordination traffic — solves the ADR-029/030 multistatic clock-sync problem. |
+| **TWT (Target Wake Time)** | `C6_TWT_ENABLE` (default on, 10 ms wake interval) | After WiFi connect, negotiates an individual TWT agreement with the AP for deterministic CSI cadence. Graceful NACK fallback if the AP doesn't support 11ax TWT. |
+| **LP-core wake-on-motion hibernation** | `C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE` (default off) | Always-on motion gate on the LP RISC-V core; HP core stays in deep sleep until the configured GPIO wakes it. Targets ~5 µA for battery-powered Cognitum Seed nodes. |
+
+**Build + flash:**
+
+```bash
+cd firmware/esp32-csi-node
+idf.py set-target esp32c6
+idf.py build # ~1.0 MB binary, 46% partition slack on 4 MB flash
+idf.py -p COM6 flash
+# Then provision the same way as S3 (provision.py works for both targets):
+python provision.py --port COM6 --ssid "YourWiFi" --password "secret" --target-ip 192.168.1.20
+```
+
+**Verifying the C6 modules came up** — `idf.py -p COM6 monitor` should show:
+
+```
+I (353) main: ESP32-C6 CSI Node (ADR-018 / ADR-110) — v0.6.6 — Node ID: 1
+I (413) c6_ts: init done: channel=15 EUI= leader=yes(candidate)
+I (463) wifi: mac_version:HAL_MAC_ESP32AX_761 ← 802.11ax MAC firmware loaded
+```
+
+The `c6_ts: init done` line confirms the 802.15.4 stack is up; if TWT succeeds you'll also see an `iTWT setup event received from AP` line after the WiFi connect completes.
+
+**Multi-room time-aligned multistatic capture (preview):**
+
+Flash two or more C6 boards, leave them on the same 802.15.4 channel (default 15). One will elect itself leader (lowest EUI-64) and broadcast `TS_BEACON` frames every 100 ms; the others compute and apply offsets. Each CSI frame from a follower carries a `c6_timesync_get_epoch_us()` wall-clock estimate aligned to within ±100 µs of the leader's monotonic time. Target use case: ADR-029/030 multistatic fusion without burning WiFi airtime on coordination.
+
+**Battery seed-node mode:**
+
+```bash
+# Enable LP-core hibernation in menuconfig:
+# ESP32-C6 capabilities (ADR-110) → Enable LP-core wake-on-motion hibernation
+# → LP-core wake GPIO (default 4 — connect a PIR or accelerometer INT line here)
+idf.py menuconfig
+idf.py build flash
+```
+
+When enabled, the C6 boots, takes one CSI burst, then enters deep sleep with the LP-core armed. Target standby current ~5 µA.
+
+**What's NOT on the C6 build** (vs S3 production): no AMOLED display (ADR-045 needs 8 MB + LCD touch driver), no WASM3 (ADR-040 needs PSRAM), no Seeed mmWave fusion (separate board). The C6 is a research/seed target, not a drop-in replacement for the S3 production node.
+
**TDM slot assignment:**
Each node in a multistatic mesh needs a unique TDM slot ID (0-based):

+ * @brief ESP32-C6 TWT (Target Wake Time) helper — ADR-110 Phase 3.
+ *
+ * Wraps esp_wifi_sta_itwt_setup() to negotiate a deterministic wake slot
+ * with the AP, replacing today's opportunistic CSI capture cadence with
+ * a scheduler-bounded one.
+ *
+ * Only built when CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32C6 is set — the S3 radio is
+ * 802.11n only and cannot speak iTWT.
+ *
+ * Usage from main.c (after WiFi STA is connected):
+ * c6_twt_setup_default(); // honors CONFIG_C6_TWT_WAKE_INTERVAL_US
+ *
+ * Graceful failure: if the AP rejects (no 11ax support, doesn't allow
+ * iTWT, or returns a NACK), the helper logs and returns ESP_OK — the
+ * device keeps doing opportunistic CSI just like the S3.

+ * Exits 0 on all-pass, prints which assertion failed otherwise.
+ *
+ * Why a separate host test file rather than extending the existing fuzz
+ * harness: fuzzers want random bytes; these are deterministic table-driven
+ * checks for tiny pure functions where libFuzzer adds no signal.
