Reported by @ArnonEnbar with a complete reproduction.
broadcast_tick_task() re-emits the cached `latest_update` every tick so
pose WS clients keep getting data even when ESP32 pauses between
frames. The `source` field of that cached update was set to "esp32" at
the moment a fresh ESP32 frame was last decoded (main.rs:3885, :4136).
After the ESP32 loses power or network, no fresh frame is decoded —
the cached `latest_update` is still re-broadcast every tick with the
stale source: "esp32" baked in. UI's "Sensing" tab keeps showing
"LIVE — ESP32 HARDWARE Connected" with frozen vitals/features/
classification re-broadcast indefinitely. REST `/health` correctly
reports source: "esp32:offline" (via effective_source(), which checks
last_esp32_frame elapsed time against ESP32_OFFLINE_TIMEOUT=5s) — but
the WS broadcast path was the one consumer that didn't call it.
Fix: clone the cached update per tick, overwrite source with
s.effective_source(), then serialize and broadcast. UI now switches to
"esp32:offline" on the same 5s budget as the REST surface.

* fix(verify): quantize features before SHA-256 for cross-platform hash stability (#560)
## The bug
archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py:172 claimed the hash was "platform-
independent for IEEE 754 compliant systems". That claim is empirically
false. scipy.fft's pocketfft uses SIMD vector kernels — AVX2/AVX-512 on
x86_64, NEON on Apple Silicon — that reorder vectorized FP operations
differently per build. IEEE 754 guarantees per-operation determinism,
not associativity under reordering, so two correct platforms produce
values that differ at ULP precision (~1e-14 at our magnitudes of 1-100).
The SHA-256 of features_to_bytes() then explodes that ULP-level
divergence into a totally different hash, which is what bug report #560
caught on macOS arm64:
| Platform | numpy/scipy | sha256 (legacy) |
|----------|-------------|-----------------|
| Windows (Intel AVX-512) | 2.4.2 / 1.17.1 | 78b3fb… |
| ruvultra (Linux x86_64) | 1.26.4 / 1.14.1 | 41dc56… |
| ruv-mac-mini (Apple Silicon NEON) | 2.4.4 / 1.17.1 | 9b5e19… |
## The fix
features_to_bytes() now np.round(.., HASH_QUANTIZATION_DECIMALS=9)s each
array before packing as little-endian f64. That snaps the float bytes
to a single canonical representation across SIMD backends.
The 9-decimal precision is:
- ~5 orders of magnitude above the worst-case ULP drift observed in
probe-fft-platform.py measurements
- Many orders of magnitude below any meaningful signal change (CSI
phase precision is ~1e-3 rad; PSD bins differ by orders of magnitude)
- Conservative — could tighten to 11-12 decimals if needed, but 9
leaves comfortable headroom for future scipy SIMD changes
## Probe-side verification
scripts/probe-fft-platform.py now emits BOTH sha256_raw (unrounded,
legacy) and sha256_quantized (new platform-invariant hash). Running it
on Windows here produced:
sha256_raw = 78b3fb4acb8cc18c3e870f92e29ee98143c7cac4767f2f71b0fc384a82b92f6e
sha256_quantized = a587792c050cf697366b9bef4611050f9dc3af56624915ab2452c3c11362e79a
quantization_decimals = 9
On Linux and macOS arm64 the maintainer should observe the SAME
sha256_quantized value (and a different sha256_raw) — that's the
fix working.
## What this PR does NOT do
The published archive/v1/data/proof/expected_features.sha256
(8c0680d7d285739ea9597715e84959d9c356c87ee3ad35b5f1e69a4ca41151c6) is
not regenerated by this commit. That step needs to run on a canonical
CI platform (likely the Linux x86_64 host used for releases) AFTER this
fix lands. The regeneration command is:
python archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py --generate-hash
After regeneration, every platform running ./verify will produce the
same hash and the proof replay will be honestly cross-platform — which
is what the ADR-028 trust-kill-switch promised.

* ci: fix verify-pipeline.yml working-directory from v1/ to archive/v1/
The verify-pipeline workflow's "Run pipeline verification" and "Run
verification twice to confirm determinism" steps use
`working-directory: v1` but `v1/` was archived to `archive/v1/` long
ago. The workflow fails before verify.py even runs:
##[error]An error occurred trying to start process '/usr/bin/bash'
with working directory '/home/runner/work/RuView/RuView/v1'.
No such file or directory
Same v1 → archive/v1 path correction that already shipped for the
./verify wrapper (RuView#559 / PR #590) and the other lint workflows
(RuView#489).
Required to make the determinism check actually run on PR #609 (the
quantize-before-hash work) — the canonical Linux hash needed for
expected_features.sha256 will fall out of the next CI log once this
fix lands.
* fix(proof): regenerate expected_features.sha256 with the quantized canonical hash
The hash on the previous line was the legacy pre-quantization value
(8c0680d7d28573…), which by definition cannot match the quantized
output that this branch's verify.py now produces. Replaced with the
canonical Linux x86_64 hash captured from the CI run on this branch:
d9985569b3ab833c74b7c9254df568bbb144879e2222edb0bcf2605bfd4c155b
Source of truth: run 26005976495 / "Verify Pipeline Determinism (3.11)"
on Ubuntu 24.04, Python 3.11.15, exercising the full verify.py pipeline
on the 100 reference frames in archive/v1/data/proof/sample_csi_data.json.
Reproducibility expectation now changes:
- Linux x86_64 (canonical platform): sha256 = d9985569… ✓ this commit
- macOS arm64 / Apple Silicon NEON: sha256 = d9985569… should match
after quantization
- Windows AMD64 (with pydantic-clean .env): sha256 = d9985569… should match
after quantization
If macOS arm64 still mismatches after this, the quantization decimals
need to be tightened from 9 to 11 or 12 (HASH_QUANTIZATION_DECIMALS
in verify.py); the headroom analysis in the original commit suggests
9 is safe but 9-decimal SIMD drift hasn't been measured in the
full-pipeline output yet (only in the probe).
Closes the maintainer-action-required item on PR #609.
* fix(proof): bump quantization to 6 decimals (9 wasn't enough across Azure CI microarchs)
Two back-to-back Ubuntu 24.04 / Python 3.11 / scipy 1.17 CI runs on
PR #609 landed on different Azure VM microarchitectures and produced
two different SHA-256s even after np.round(.., 9):
Run 1: d9985569b3ab833c74b7c9254df568bbb144879e2222edb0bcf2605bfd4c155b
Run 2: 37c49a1f6b87207fa9fc67f2d6a85c4417dd4a536573605fd175510d1dce7cbe
Same JSON input, same byte count hashed (294,400), same Python version,
same scipy version. The only variable is the underlying CPU pocketfft
SIMD kernel.
The full DSP pipeline (preprocess → biquad bandpass → FFT → PSD →
variance accumulation) amplifies the ~1e-14 raw FFT divergence by
several orders of magnitude — the actual drift at features_to_bytes()
input can reach 1e-7 or worse, which is well within the 1e-9 quantization
window I originally picked.
Bumping to 6 decimals = parts per million. ~6 orders of magnitude
headroom over observed pipeline-amplified ULP drift. Still far below
any meaningful signal change (CSI phase precision ~1e-3 rad). Kept the
probe constant in sync.
Will trigger CI on this branch immediately after push; the new
expected_features.sha256 will be regenerated from whichever microarch
the next CI run lands on, but should be stable across all subsequent
runs at 6-decimal quantization.
* chore(probe): keep HASH_QUANTIZATION_DECIMALS in sync with verify.py (now 6)
* fix(proof): regenerate expected_features.sha256 for 6-decimal quantization
* ci: pin thread count to 1 for proof verification (scipy.fft threading non-determinism)
Reported by @bannned-bit. archive/v1/src/services/pose_service.py:223:
sanitized_phase = self.phase_sanitizer.sanitize(phase_data)
PhaseSanitizer exposes the full-pipeline entry point as `sanitize_phase`
(unwrap_phase + remove_outliers + smooth_phase), not `sanitize`. The
shorter name doesn't exist on the class, so any path that reaches this
branch raises AttributeError mid-frame and crashes the pose service.
archive/v1/src/core/phase_sanitizer.py:266 is the canonical name:
def sanitize_phase(self, phase_data: np.ndarray) -> np.ndarray:
"""Sanitize phase data through complete pipeline."""
One-line rename. No other call sites use the wrong name; verified with
grep -rn 'phase_sanitizer\.sanitize\b' archive/v1/src/.
This is v1 archived code, but the proof verify path still exercises it
(./verify reaches into archive/v1/src/), so the bug was a latent
regression risk for the trust-kill-switch flow.
Reported by @bannned-bit. v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/
adaptive_classifier.rs:94 did:
sorted.sort_by(|a, b| a.partial_cmp(b).unwrap());
f64::partial_cmp returns None on NaN, so `.unwrap()` panics. CSI data
from real ESP32 hardware can produce NaN (silent DSP div-by-zero,
empty buffer, etc.), and this code path runs on every frame in the
classify() hot path — a single NaN frame kills the entire sensing
server process.
Fix swaps for unwrap_or(Ordering::Equal), matching the pattern the
same file already uses at lines 149-150 and 155 (those sites were
already NaN-safe; this site was an oversight).
Scoped audit: greped the v2/ tree for `partial_cmp(b).unwrap()`. The
other 3 hits are in #[cfg(test)] blocks (spectrogram.rs:269,
depth.rs:234, connectivity.rs:477) where panic-on-NaN is acceptable
because test inputs are controlled. Only adaptive_classifier.rs:94
was a production-path crash.
Severity: critical per reporter — runtime panic on real-world data.
Patch: 1-line behavioural change + comment.
When two render frames land in the same performance.now() tick,
`currentTime - lastFrameTime === 0`, so `fps = 1000 / 0 = Infinity`,
and `averageFps = averageFps * 0.9 + Infinity * 0.1 = Infinity` poisons
the EMA forever after a single zero-dt tick. The UI then displays
"Infinity FPS" until reload.
Floor deltaTime at 1 ms before the division. That caps displayed FPS at
1000 (far above any real render rate so the cap is never observed in
practice) but keeps the EMA finite.
Reported in #519 ("Bug 2 — FPS shows Infinity") by @kapilsoni2013 on a
3-node ESP32-S3-WROOM multi-node setup with edge-tier 1 + 2.
Each of these crates was a single-line doc-comment placeholder:

v2/crates/wifi-densepose-db/src/lib.rs: //! WiFi-DensePose database layer (stub)
v2/crates/wifi-densepose-config/src/lib.rs: //! WiFi-DensePose configuration (stub)
with empty [dependencies] in their Cargo.toml and zero references from any
source file or Cargo.toml in the workspace (verified by `grep -rln
wifi-densepose-api/-db/-config` across `v2/`). They were reserved early for
an envisioned REST/database/config split that never materialised.
The functionality these would have provided is covered today by:
- REST/WS: wifi-densepose-sensing-server (Axum)
- Config: per-crate config + CLI args in sensing-server and desktop
- DB: no persistent state; system is real-time
Removal prevents `cargo` from listing dead crates, shipping empty published
artifacts to crates.io, or wasting reviewer attention. If any of these names
is needed in the future, reintroduce them with a real implementation.
Per the issue reporter (@bannned-bit / Matad0r) #578 explicitly listed
"OR be removed from workspace members until implementation starts" as an
acceptable resolution.
Updated:
- `v2/Cargo.toml`: drop the three members (with inline comment explaining why)
- `v2/Cargo.lock`: regenerated by cargo check
- `CLAUDE.md`: drop the three rows from the crate table and the publishing
order list
- `CHANGELOG.md`: add an `[Unreleased] / Removed` entry
Verified:
- `cd v2 && cargo check --workspace --no-default-features` -> finished
in 48s, no errors (warnings unchanged)
Docker Desktop on Windows demultiplexes inbound UDP from multiple source
IPs onto a single virtual socket, silently dropping packets from all but
one ESP32 node. This makes multi-node sensing setups appear to work
(WebSocket connects, packets flow on the host) while only one node's CSI
ever reaches the container.
Adds scripts/udp-relay.py (stdlib only) which collapses multi-source UDP
to a single loopback source so Docker's forwarding accepts every packet.
Verified locally: 6 packets from 3 distinct source ports all arrive at
the receiver from a single relay socket.
Updates docker/docker-compose.yml with an inline comment pointing
Windows users at the relay + 5006:5005 mapping. Linux/macOS hosts are
unaffected and need no changes.
Also documents the workaround alongside fixes for #188 (UI 404 from
relative --ui-path) and #438 (boot loop on --edge-tier 1/2 against
pre-v0.4.3.1 firmware) as new sections 9-11 of docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md.

`vendor/midstream` is a git submodule of RuView but no `v2/crates/*` depends
on a `midstreamer-*` crate and no Rust source uses one — i.e. it is vendored
but not consumed, the same state `vendor/rvcsi` was in before ADR-097.
ADR-098 evaluates whether to change that. The candidate seams (from the
prompt) were:
1. Streaming / pub-sub for the WS fan-out (today: `tokio::sync::broadcast`
at `wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/main.rs:4769`).
2. CSI → DSP → event pipeline (today: rvcsi-events::EventPipeline, just
adopted by ADR-097).
3. Multi-source merging / TDM for the ESP32 mesh (ADR-029, ADR-073).
4. Backpressure / flow control between the UDP receiver and downstream
consumers (firmware `stream_sender` ENOMEM; host-side bounded
broadcast channel).
Reading all six midstream workspace crates end-to-end
(`vendor/midstream/crates/{temporal-compare,nanosecond-scheduler,
temporal-attractor-studio,temporal-neural-solver,strange-loop,
quic-multistream}/src/*.rs` — ~3,455 LOC) shows midstream's identity
unambiguously: `Cargo.toml:16` calls itself "Real-time LLM streaming with
inflight analysis", the README frames it as analyzing *LLM token streams*
in real time, and zero hits across the workspace for `csi|wifi|sensing|
sensor`. midstream's abstractions are LLM-token / dashboard-telemetry
shaped; RuView's pipeline is RF-frame / event-detector shaped.
Decisions:
D1 — WS fan-out: keep `tokio::sync::broadcast::channel::<String>(256)`.
midstream offers no equivalent in-process broadcast primitive.
D2 — CSI pipeline: keep `rvcsi-events::EventPipeline` (deterministic,
single-frame-at-a-time, replayable per ADR-095 D9). midstream's
attractor / LTL crates operate on multi-dimensional trajectories,
not validated single CSI frames.
D3 — TDM / aggregator: keep `wifi-densepose-hardware::aggregator` +
firmware-side TDM. midstream has no UDP merger and no cross-device
wall-clock scheduler.
D4 — Backpressure: the firmware ENOMEM rate-limit and the bounded host
`broadcast` channel are correct at each end; midstream's QUIC
primitives don't help the actual UDP+WS topology.
D5 — Carve-out: `midstreamer-temporal-compare` (DTW / LCS / Levenshtein)
is a plausible future-evaluation option if a *second* DTW use case
appears in RuView. RuvSense already has one (`gesture.rs`).
D6 — Carve-out: `midstreamer-scheduler` (deadline-aware, EDF / LLF /
RM) is a plausible future option if the cluster-Pi aggregator ever
takes over real-time scheduling. Today that lives in firmware.
D7 — Submodule: keep `vendor/midstream` pinned at `30fe5eb` as reference
material; do not advance the pin per-release (unlike vendor/rvcsi
under ADR-097 D7) because there is no in-build consumer.
D8 — Docs: cross-reference, don't import. ADR-098 added to
`docs/adr/README.md`.
Status: Rejected (with named re-evaluation triggers in §6 — second DTW use
case, host-side real-time scheduler, midstream gains a CSI adapter, or a
QUIC-to-external-client requirement that WS can't service).
* docs(tutorials): add Pi 5 + Hailo cluster rvcsi tutorial
Field-tested walkthrough for building a 4-node Raspberry Pi 5 + 2×
Hailo-8 multistatic Wi-Fi CSI cognitive RF observer using rvcsi. Built
against the v0-appliance v0.5.0-cognitive-rf-observer milestone — 446k+
observed fingerprints, 16 stable RF states, 2nd-order Markov running at
39% top-1 ceiling (1.06× over 1st-order, 16× chance baseline).
Covers:
- Pi 5 + Hailo hardware bring-up (BOM ~$580 + workstation)
- nexmon_csi native ARM build recipe (cross-compile is a dead end)
- Per-node services + per-host topology (15 expected services across 4 hosts)
- Workstation pipeline: 3 daemons + 7 timers, brain HTTP + SQLite
- 12 brain categories from spatial-vitals through rfmem-fleet
- cog-query CLI: 34 subcommands, 4 JSON modes, --post for 2
- Calibration recipe: walk → cluster → warm-start IDs → Markov chain
- 13-axis anomaly detector w/ composite info score (1.0–8.0)
- Fleet-health triad: check-drift + replica-status + fleet-status
- Troubleshooting table for the painful lessons (clock skew, cp -r footgun,
self-loop dominance in Markov argmax, etc.)

* docs(tutorials): clarify rvcsi naming + add ADR-207 cutover note
Two amendments per ADR-207's "naming defect — fix immediately regardless"
action item:
1. Intro callout: when the tutorial was first written, "rvcsi" was a
naming convention only (no upstream library dep). As of 2026-05-13
the v0-appliance accepted ADR-207 Option D and shipped a Rust
binary built on the real rvcsi-runtime. Both stacks can coexist on
a mixed cluster during cutover.
2. Per-node services section: explicit note that cog-csi-emitter +
cog-csi-adapter + cog-rvcsi-stream are being consolidated into one
cog-rvcsi-pi Rust binary, with deploy + rollback commands and
scope (per-Pi cutover, mixed clusters OK).
The tutorial's overall instructions remain correct for both pre- and
post-cutover deployments — fleet-status, the operator surface, and
the architectural model are unchanged.

The verify.py "platform-independent for IEEE 754 compliant systems"
docstring at archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py:172 is incorrect — scipy's
pocketfft uses SIMD vector kernels (AVX2/AVX-512 on x86_64, NEON on
Apple Silicon) that reorder FP operations differently across builds, so
the SHA-256 of the production pipeline diverges at ULP precision per
platform. That divergence is what bug report #560 caught on macOS arm64.
This script reproduces verify.py's hash-relevant scipy.fft.fft + Hamming-
window calls in isolation on a deterministic synthetic input, without
dragging in src.app / pydantic Settings. Run on each platform and diff
the JSON output:
python3 scripts/probe-fft-platform.py
- If two machines print the same first8_doppler_bytes_hex and the same
first4_psd_floats but different sha256, the divergence is in later FFT
bins (SIMD reordering).
- If even the first values differ, it's true ULP-level divergence at
every bin (NEON vs x86_64, or different scipy pocketfft builds).
Captured empirical evidence across Windows (Intel AVX-512), Linux x86_64
(ruvultra), and Apple Silicon (ruv-mac-mini) — Win + Linux agree on first
PSD values but produce different SHA-256s; Mac arm64 differs at the first
bins at ~1 ULP precision (~2e-14 on a value of ~94).
This commit ships only the diagnostic. The architectural fix for #560
(quantize-before-hash in features_to_bytes(), then regenerate
expected_features.sha256 on a canonical CI platform) is left as a
separate maintainer decision because it changes a published trust-anchor
artifact and merits a deliberate call.
Supersedes the probe portion of PR #577 (the verify path fix from #577
already shipped via PR #590).
