* feat(adr-118/p1.4): BfldFrame (header + payload + CRC32) — 24/24 GREEN

Iter 4. Lands the central wire-format primitive: complete frames with
header + arbitrary-length payload, protected by CRC-32/ISO-HDLC.

Added:
- crc = "3" dependency (CRC-32/ISO-HDLC, same poly as Ethernet / zlib)
- src/frame.rs: CRC32_ALG const and crc32_of_payload(&[u8]) -> u32
- src/frame.rs: BfldFrame { header, payload: Vec<u8> } (gated on `std`)
  * BfldFrame::new(header, payload) — auto-syncs payload_len + payload_crc32
  * BfldFrame::to_bytes() -> Vec<u8> — header LE bytes ‖ payload
  * BfldFrame::from_bytes(&[u8]) -> Result<Self, BfldError>
- BfldError::TruncatedFrame { got, need } variant
- Doc strings on BfldError::Crc and BfldError::PrivacyViolation field names
- tests/frame_roundtrip.rs (7 named tests, gated on feature = "std"):
    frame_roundtrip_preserves_header_and_payload
    frame_new_syncs_payload_len_and_crc
    frame_serialization_is_deterministic
    frame_rejects_payload_crc_mismatch
    frame_rejects_truncated_buffer_smaller_than_header
    frame_rejects_truncated_buffer_smaller_than_payload
    empty_payload_is_valid (CRC of empty payload is 0x00000000)

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 17 passed (frame_roundtrip cfg-out)
- cargo test (default features = std)  → 24 passed (3+6+7+8)

ADR-119 ACs progressed:
- AC4 partial: bad-magic + bad-version + CRC-mismatch + truncation rejected
  with typed errors; field-level masking lives in the privacy_gate iter.
- AC5: BfldFrame round-trip preserves header + payload + CRC.
- AC6: Identical inputs produce bit-identical bytes (asserted explicitly).

Out of scope (next iter):
- Payload section parser (compressed_angle_matrix, amplitude_proxy, ...)
  — only the byte buffer is opaque so far; sections need length prefixes.
- BfldFrameRef<'_> for ESP32-S3 self-only mode (no-alloc, ADR-123 §2.5).
- PrivacyGate::demote(frame, target_class) transformer (ADR-120 §2.4).

* feat(adr-118/p1.5): payload section parser (BfldPayload) — 32/32 GREEN

Iter 5. Implements ADR-119 §2.2 payload layout: 4-byte LE length prefix
followed by section bytes, in this fixed order:

  compressed_angle_matrix ‖ amplitude_proxy ‖ phase_proxy ‖ snr_vector
   ‖ csi_delta (iff flags.bit0)
   ‖ vendor_extension (length 0 allowed)

Added:
- src/payload.rs (gated on `feature = "std"`):
  * BfldPayload struct with 6 fields (csi_delta: Option<Vec<u8>>)
  * SECTION_PREFIX_LEN const (= 4)
  * to_bytes(include_csi_delta: bool) -> Vec<u8>
  * wire_len(include_csi_delta: bool) -> usize  (predictive, no allocation)
  * from_bytes(&[u8], expect_csi_delta: bool) -> Result<Self, BfldError>
  * push_section / read_section helpers (private)
- BfldError::MalformedSection { offset, reason } variant
- pub use BfldPayload from lib.rs (cfg-gated mirror of BfldFrame)

tests/payload_sections.rs (8 named tests, all green):
  payload_roundtrip_with_csi_delta
  payload_roundtrip_without_csi_delta
  wire_len_matches_to_bytes_length
  empty_payload_has_five_zero_length_sections
  parser_rejects_buffer_shorter_than_first_length_prefix
  parser_rejects_section_body_running_past_buffer_end
  parser_rejects_trailing_bytes_after_vendor_extension
  csi_delta_flag_mismatch_with_payload_is_detectable_via_trailing_bytes

ACs progressed:
- AC5 ↑ — full section-level round-trip preservation (round-trip with and
  without csi_delta both pass).
- AC6 ↑ — deterministic section encoding (length prefixes use to_le_bytes,
  body is byte-stable).
- AC1 partial — section layout now parses with bounded errors; CBFR-specific
  parsing (Phi/Psi Givens decoders) is a separate iter inside extractor.rs.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 17 passed (payload module cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 32 passed (3 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 8)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- Wire integration: feed BfldPayload bytes through BfldFrame::new so the
  header.payload_crc32 covers the section-prefixed bytes per ADR-119 §2.2
  ("CRC32 covers all section bytes including length prefixes").
- A no_std-friendly BfldPayloadRef<'_> borrowing variant (ESP32-S3 path).
- Givens-rotation angle decoder (Phi/Psi extraction from compressed_angle_matrix).

* feat(adr-118/p1.6): BfldFrame <-> BfldPayload wire integration (39/39 GREEN)

Iter 6. Connects the typed payload parser (iter 5) to the framed
wire format (iter 4): the CRC32 now covers the section-prefixed
payload bytes per ADR-119 §2.2 ("CRC32 covers all section bytes
including length prefixes").

Added:
- BfldFrame::from_payload(header, &BfldPayload) -> Self
  Auto-syncs header.flags HAS_CSI_DELTA bit from payload.csi_delta.is_some(),
  serializes payload via to_bytes(), feeds BfldFrame::new() which computes
  payload_len + payload_crc32 over the section-prefixed bytes.
- BfldFrame::parse_payload(&self) -> Result<BfldPayload, BfldError>
  Reads HAS_CSI_DELTA bit from header.flags and dispatches to
  BfldPayload::from_bytes(&self.payload, expect_csi_delta).

tests/frame_payload_integration.rs (7 named tests, all green):
  from_payload_then_parse_payload_is_identity
  from_payload_autosets_has_csi_delta_flag
  from_payload_clears_has_csi_delta_flag_when_csi_absent
    (verifies the flag is cleared when csi_delta is None even if caller
     pre-set the bit; other flag bits like PRIVACY_MODE are preserved)
  frame_crc_covers_section_prefixed_bytes
    (mutating a byte inside section body trips CRC, not magic/length)
  frame_crc_covers_section_length_prefixes
    (mutating a section length-prefix byte trips CRC before parser ever runs)
  empty_typed_payload_roundtrips
  end_to_end_wire_roundtrip_via_bytes
    (BfldPayload -> from_payload -> to_bytes -> from_bytes -> parse_payload
     is the identity function modulo flag auto-set)

ACs progressed:
- AC5 ↑ — full payload round-trip through the framed bytes (closes
  the round-trip leg from BfldPayload through wire and back).
- AC6 ↑ — same input produces same bytes through both layers.
- AC4 ↑ — CRC mismatch on tampered section bodies and tampered section
  length prefixes both surface as BfldError::Crc, not as silent acceptance
  or as a deeper parser error.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 17 passed (integration tests cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 39 passed (3 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 7)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- PrivacyGate::demote(frame, target_class) — ADR-120 §2.4 class transition
  transformer with subtle::Zeroize on dropped fields.
- IdentityEmbedding newtype with no Serialize impl (ADR-120 §2.5 / I2).

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-118/p2.1): IdentityEmbedding newtype + zeroizing Drop — 44/44 GREEN

Iter 7. First structural enforcement of ADR-118 invariant I2 — the
identity embedding is in-RAM-only and cannot be serialized, cloned,
or copied. Lands the type itself; ring-buffer lifecycle is next.

Added:
- src/embedding.rs (no_std-compatible; lives in the lib regardless of features):
  * IdentityEmbedding wrapping [f32; EMBEDDING_DIM=128]
  * from_raw(values), as_slice() -> &[f32], l2_norm(), len(), is_empty()
  * NO Serialize, NO Clone, NO Copy impl
  * Custom Debug emits only dim + L2 norm + "<redacted>" — never raw values
  * Drop overwrites storage with 0.0 then core::hint::black_box(...) to defeat
    dead-store elimination (DSE would otherwise let the compiler skip the write)
- Compile-time structural guards via static_assertions:
    assert_impl_all!(IdentityEmbedding: Drop)
    assert_not_impl_any!(IdentityEmbedding: Copy, Clone)
- pub use IdentityEmbedding, EMBEDDING_DIM from lib.rs

tests/identity_embedding.rs (5 named tests, all green):
  from_raw_preserves_values_through_as_slice
  l2_norm_is_correct
  debug_output_redacts_raw_values
    (asserts the formatted output does NOT contain decimal text of values)
  embedding_is_not_clonable
    (runtime witness; compile-time assertion lives in src/embedding.rs)
  drop_overwrites_storage_with_zeros
    (Drop runs without panic; bit-level zeroization is asserted by the
     black_box-guarded loop. Unsafe peek-after-free is intentionally avoided.)

ACs progressed:
- AC5 ↑ — even in `privacy_mode`, the IdentityEmbedding type can't be reached
  from any serialization path because the type system rejects the impl.
- I2 ↑ — Drop, no Clone, no Copy, redacted Debug are all in place as
  compile-time guarantees.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 22 passed
- cargo test                       → 44 passed (3 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 8 + 7 + 5)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- EmbeddingRing — 64-entry FIFO ring buffer holding IdentityEmbeddings,
  drained on coherence-gate Recalibrate (ADR-121 §2.4).
- PrivacyGate::demote(frame, target_class) transformer (ADR-120 §2.4).

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-118/p2.2): EmbeddingRing 64-entry FIFO buffer — 53/53 GREEN

Iter 8. Lands the lifecycle half of ADR-120 §2.5: a bounded, in-place,
no_std-compatible ring of IdentityEmbeddings. Insertion is O(1); when
full, push evicts the oldest entry, whose Drop runs and zeroizes the
f32 storage. drain() clears the ring on the coherence-gate Recalibrate
action (ADR-121 §2.4).

Added:
- src/embedding_ring.rs (no_std-compatible; no heap):
  * EmbeddingRing struct with [Option<IdentityEmbedding>; RING_CAPACITY=64]
    backing array, head cursor, count
  * EmbeddingRing::new() / Default impl
  * push(emb) -> Option<IdentityEmbedding>  (evicted oldest when full)
  * len / is_empty / capacity / is_full / iter
  * iter() returns occupied slots in insertion order (oldest first)
  * drain() -> usize  (empties the ring, returns count drained)
- pub use EmbeddingRing, RING_CAPACITY from lib.rs

Uses `[const { None }; RING_CAPACITY]` (stable since 1.79) to initialize
the slot array for a non-Copy element type.

tests/embedding_ring.rs (9 named tests, all green):
  new_ring_is_empty
  default_constructor_matches_new
  push_below_capacity_returns_none
  iter_yields_in_insertion_order
  push_at_capacity_evicts_oldest_and_returns_it
    (verifies eviction reports the FIRST pushed value, not the last)
  push_beyond_capacity_keeps_last_n_entries
    (after 74 pushes into a 64-slot ring, the surviving 64 are positions 10..74)
  drain_empties_the_ring_and_returns_count
  drain_on_empty_ring_returns_zero
  ring_can_be_refilled_after_drain
    (post-drain push lands cleanly at index 0; iter yields exactly that entry)

ACs progressed:
- I2 ↑ — ring eviction and explicit drain both drop IdentityEmbeddings,
  which the iter-7 Drop impl zeroizes. The "in-RAM-only" lifecycle is now
  end-to-end: bounded buffer in, FIFO out, drain on Recalibrate.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 31 passed (22 + 9)
- cargo test                       → 53 passed (44 + 9)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- PrivacyGate::demote(frame, target_class) — ADR-120 §2.4 monotonic class
  transition with field zeroization, refusing demote-to-Raw (compile-fail).
- SoulMatchOracle stub trait + no-op default impl (ADR-121 §2.6) so the
  Recalibrate exemption hook is wireable from `--features soul-signature`.

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-118/p3.1): PrivacyGate::demote monotonic class transformer (60/60 GREEN)

Iter 9. Lands ADR-120 §2.4 — the only operation that can lower a frame's
information content. Demote is monotonic by construction (Result::Err
on non-monotone target), strips payload sections per the target class
table, and re-syncs header.privacy_class + CRC32.

Added:
- src/privacy_gate.rs (gated on `feature = "std"`):
  * PrivacyGate unit struct (+ Default impl)
  * PrivacyGate::demote(BfldFrame, target: PrivacyClass) -> Result<BfldFrame>
  * Stripping policy:
      target >= Anonymous (2): zeros + clears compressed_angle_matrix and
        csi_delta; sets csi_delta = None so from_payload clears HAS_CSI_DELTA
      target >= Restricted (3): also zeros + clears amplitude_proxy and phase_proxy
  * zeroize_then_clear helper — overwrite with 0 then black_box then truncate
- BfldError::InvalidDemote { from: u8, to: u8 } variant
- pub use PrivacyGate from lib.rs

Note: demote does NOT zero the original Vec capacity that the heap allocator
may still hold — the buffers we own are zeroed and cleared, but the
intermediate Vec passed back to BfldFrame::from_payload reallocates anew.
For strict heap zeroization in regulated deployments, a follow-up iter can
substitute zeroize::Zeroizing<Vec<u8>>.

tests/privacy_gate_demote.rs (7 named tests, all green):
  demote_to_same_class_is_identity
  demote_derived_to_anonymous_strips_compressed_angle_matrix
    (also asserts csi_delta dropped, snr_vector and amplitude_proxy preserved)
  demote_derived_to_restricted_strips_amplitude_and_phase_too
    (snr_vector and vendor_extension survive at class 3)
  demote_anonymous_to_derived_is_rejected
    (asserts InvalidDemote { from: 2, to: 1 })
  demote_to_raw_is_rejected_from_any_higher_class
    (parameterized over Derived, Anonymous, Restricted as sources)
  demote_preserves_frame_crc_consistency_through_wire_roundtrip
    (post-demote frame survives to_bytes -> from_bytes with no CRC error)
  demote_clears_has_csi_delta_flag_bit

ACs progressed:
- AC5 ↑ — privacy_mode enforcement at the frame-class boundary now works
  through PrivacyGate, not just the BfldEvent emitter (deferred). When the
  active class is Anonymous (2) or Restricted (3), the angle matrix /
  csi_delta / amplitude / phase sections that carry identity information
  are zeroed before any downstream code sees them.
- AC4 ↑ — demoted frames retain valid CRC; the round-trip-through-bytes
  test proves bit-correctness after the class transition.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 31 passed (privacy_gate cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 60 passed (53 + 7)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- SoulMatchOracle stub trait + no-op default impl (ADR-121 §2.6) so the
  Recalibrate exemption hook is wireable from `--features soul-signature`.
- IdentityRiskEngine — multiplicative formula on (sep, stab, consist, conf)
  with the coherence-gate GateAction enum (ADR-121 §2.2 + §2.4).

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-118/p3.2): identity_risk score + GateAction enum — 72/72 GREEN

Iter 10. Lands the stateless half of ADR-121 §2.2–§2.4: the
multiplicative risk-score formula and the 4-band gate classifier.
Hysteresis + 5s debounce (stateful CoherenceGate) land in iter 11.

Added (no_std-compatible):
- src/identity_risk.rs:
  * score(sep, stab, consist, conf) -> f32
    Each input clamped to [0,1]; NaN → 0 (conservative). Multiplicative
    combination: any near-zero factor collapses the score → privacy-biased.
  * Threshold constants: PREDICT_ONLY_THRESHOLD=0.5, REJECT_THRESHOLD=0.7,
    RECALIBRATE_THRESHOLD=0.9
  * GateAction enum: Accept | PredictOnly | Reject | Recalibrate
  * GateAction::from_score(f32) -> Self  — band-based classification with
    inclusive lower edges (0.7 maps to Reject, 0.9 maps to Recalibrate)
  * GateAction::allows_publish() / drops_event() / requires_recalibrate()
- pub use identity_risk_score (the function) and GateAction from lib.rs

  requires_recalibrate_is_unique_to_recalibrate

ACs progressed:
- ADR-121 AC2 partial — `score` formula structurally enforces non-negativity,
  upper bound 1.0, and conservative behavior under uncertainty (NaN, negative
  input, single near-zero factor).
- ADR-121 AC7 partial — score function is pure / deterministic; identical
  inputs always produce identical outputs (asserted by the known-value test).

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 43 passed (31 + 12)
- cargo test                       → 72 passed (60 + 12)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- CoherenceGate stateful struct: ±0.05 hysteresis + 5-second debounce
  (ADR-121 §2.5) so the gate doesn't oscillate near band boundaries.
- SoulMatchOracle stub trait (ADR-121 §2.6) — the Recalibrate exemption
  hook for `--features soul-signature` deployments.

* feat(adr-118/p3.3): CoherenceGate hysteresis + 5s debounce — 85/85 GREEN

Iter 11. Wraps the stateless GateAction classifier from iter 10 with two
stabilizing mechanisms per ADR-121 §2.5:

  * ±0.05 HYSTERESIS — a score must clear the current band's edge by
    HYSTERESIS before the gate considers the next band.
  * 5-second DEBOUNCE_NS — a different action must persist that long
    before it becomes current; returning to the current band cancels it.

Added (no_std-compatible):
- src/coherence_gate.rs:
  * HYSTERESIS const (0.05) + DEBOUNCE_NS const (5_000_000_000)
  * CoherenceGate { current, pending: Option<(GateAction, u64)> }
  * new() / Default / current() / pending() (diagnostic accessors)
  * evaluate(score, timestamp_ns) -> GateAction
    Algorithm: compute effective_target via per-direction hysteresis check,
    promote pending after DEBOUNCE_NS elapsed, cancel pending on return to
    current band, reset debounce clock if pending target changes
  * Private helpers effective_target / action_idx / upper_edge_of / lower_edge_of
- pub use CoherenceGate from lib.rs

ACs progressed:
- ADR-121 AC4 — Recalibrate fires when score >= 0.9 for >= DEBOUNCE_NS (5s).
  The debounce test above directly exercises this.
- ADR-121 AC5 — hysteresis test confirms action does not oscillate across
  ± 0.05 of a threshold within a 5-second window.

Test config:

  when --features soul-signature is enabled and the oracle reports a known
  enrolled person_id match, the gate downgrades Recalibrate → PredictOnly.
- BfldEvent struct (ADR-121 §2.1 output event) — first downstream consumer
  of the gate action.

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-118/p3.4): SoulMatchOracle + Recalibrate exemption (93/93 GREEN)

Iter 12. Wires the ADR-121 §2.6 Recalibrate exemption: when an enrolled
person_id matches the current high-separability cluster, the gate
downgrades the would-be Recalibrate to PredictOnly. The high score is
the *intended* outcome of a Soul Signature match, not an attacker-grade
sniffer arrival — so site_salt rotation is suppressed.

Added (no_std-compatible):
- src/coherence_gate.rs additions:
  * MatchOutcome enum: Match { person_id: u64 } | NotEnrolled | Suppressed
  * SoulMatchOracle trait with matches_enrolled() -> MatchOutcome
  * NullOracle (default-constructible, always reports NotEnrolled)
  * CoherenceGate::evaluate_with_oracle(score, ts, &O: SoulMatchOracle)
    — same hysteresis/debounce as evaluate(), but downgrades Recalibrate
    to PredictOnly when oracle returns Match { .. }
  * Refactored evaluate(): extracted advance_state(target, ts) shared with
    evaluate_with_oracle. evaluate is now a 4-line wrapper.

  hook is in place for the `--features soul-signature` Soul Signature
  crate (TBD) to plug in a real RaBitQ-backed oracle.
- ADR-118 §1.4 Soul Signature companion contract is now structurally
  enforced at the gate boundary: enrolled subjects do not trigger
  site_salt rotation; everyone else does.

Test config:

Iter 13. Lands ADR-121 §2.1 (output event) + ADR-122 §2.1 (field-gating
policy). BfldEvent collapses the GateAction-driven sensing pipeline
into the canonical wire-format publishable on MQTT.

Added:
- serde (workspace, derive feature, optional) + serde_json (workspace, optional) deps
- New crate feature `serde-json` (default-on; requires `std`)
- src/event.rs (gated on `feature = "std"`):
  * BfldEvent struct with all sensing + identity-derived fields
  * with_privacy_gating(...) constructor that applies field-gating policy:
      class < Restricted (3): identity_risk_score + rf_signature_hash kept
      class >= Restricted (3): both nulled to None
  * apply_privacy_gating() — idempotent in-place masking
  * to_json() -> Result<String, serde_json::Error> (gated on serde-json)
  * Custom ser_privacy_class serializer emits lowercase names
    ("anonymous", "restricted", etc.) per the BFLD JSON spec

* feat(adr-118/p4.2): BfldEmitter end-to-end pipeline (109/109 GREEN)

Iter 14. Wires every iter-1..13 primitive into a single ADR-118 §2.1
pipeline: per-frame sensing inputs go in, a privacy-gated BfldEvent
(or None) comes out. First time every constituent is exercised together.

Added (gated on `feature = "std"`):
- src/emitter.rs:
  * SensingInputs struct — 11 fields: timestamp_ns, presence, motion,
    person_count, sensing_confidence, sep, stab, consist, risk_conf,
    rf_signature_hash (Option)
  * BfldEmitter struct owning: node_id, default_zone_id, privacy_class,
    CoherenceGate, EmbeddingRing
  * Builder API: new(node_id) → with_zone(...) → with_privacy_class(...)
  * current_action() / ring_len() diagnostic accessors
  * emit(inputs, embedding) → Option<BfldEvent>
      1. score = identity_risk::score(sep, stab, consist, risk_conf)
      2. ring.push(embedding) if Some
      3. action = gate.evaluate_with_oracle(score, ts, &NullOracle)
      4. if action == Recalibrate { ring.drain() }
      5. if action.drops_event() { return None }
      6. else BfldEvent::with_privacy_gating(...) honoring privacy_class
  * emit_with_oracle(...) variant for `--features soul-signature` callers

  ring_unchanged_when_no_embedding_supplied

ACs progressed:
- ADR-118 AC1 (BFLD core pipeline integration) — every component from
  iter 1 (frame format) through iter 13 (event) is now traversed by a
  single emit() call. This is the first end-to-end smoke proof.
- ADR-121 AC4 — Recalibrate-grade sustained score triggers ring drain
  (verified by ring_len() going from 5 to 0).
- ADR-122 AC1 — privacy_class threaded through the pipeline so the
  output event is correctly gated for HA/Matter consumption.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 64 passed (emitter cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 109 passed (102 + 7)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- Wiring rf_signature_hash computation from BLAKE3-keyed(site_salt,
  features) per ADR-120 §2.3 — the SensingInputs.rf_signature_hash
  is supplied by caller for now; needs a SignatureHasher with site_salt
  initialization in a follow-up iter.
- Embedding ring → identity_separability_score derivation (currently
  `sep` is caller-supplied; should be computed from ring contents).
- MQTT topic publisher wrapping BfldEmitter (ADR-122 §2.2) — depends
  on a runtime (tokio).

* feat(adr-118/p3.5): SignatureHasher (BLAKE3-keyed) — 117/117 GREEN

Iter 15. Lands ADR-120 §2.3 — the cryptographic foundation of invariant
I3 ("cross-site identity correlation is impossible"). rf_signature_hash
is now derived from a per-site secret and a daily epoch, so two nodes
observing the same physical person produce uncorrelated 256-bit digests.

Added (no_std-compatible):
- blake3 = "1.5", default-features = false (no_std, no SIMD by default)
- src/signature_hasher.rs:
  * Constants SECONDS_PER_DAY (86_400), SITE_SALT_LEN (32), RF_SIGNATURE_LEN (32)
  * SignatureHasher { site_salt: [u8; 32] } with new(salt) const ctor
  * compute(day_epoch, &features) -> [u8; 32]  (BLAKE3 keyed mode)
  * compute_at(unix_secs, &features) -> [u8; 32] convenience
  * day_epoch_from_unix_secs(unix_secs) -> u32 helper (floor(t / 86400))

    Runs 100 trials with distinct (salt_a, salt_b) pairs observing
    identical features, computes per-trial Hamming distance, asserts
    mean >= 120 bits and min >= 80 bits. Empirically lands at ~128 bits
    mean (the expected value for two independent 256-bit hashes), with
    no trial below 80 bits — i.e., zero suspicious near-collisions.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-120 §2.7 AC2 — structurally enforced cross-site isolation, now
  proven empirically by the Hamming-distance test. This is the
  cryptographic half of invariant I3 in code, not just docs.
- ADR-118 invariant I3 — first runtime witness that two sites with
  independent site_salts cannot correlate the same person's signature.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (64 + 8; signature_hasher is no_std)
- cargo test                       → 117 passed (109 + 8)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- Wire SignatureHasher into BfldEmitter: replace caller-supplied
  rf_signature_hash with hasher.compute_at(ts, &features) so the
  pipeline produces correct hashes end-to-end.
- IdentityFeatures canonical-bytes encoder so callers don't need to
  hand-serialize per-feature representations.

* feat(adr-118/p4.3): wire SignatureHasher into BfldEmitter (123/123 GREEN)

Iter 16. End-to-end ADR-120 §2.3 wiring: BfldEmitter now produces
rf_signature_hash derived from (site_salt, day_epoch, features), with
the IdentityEmbedding bytes as the preferred feature source. Closes
the gap from iter 15 — the hasher is now reachable from the pipeline.

Added (in src/emitter.rs):
- BfldEmitter.signature_hasher: Option<SignatureHasher> field
- BfldEmitter::with_signature_hasher(SignatureHasher) -> Self builder
- emit_with_oracle computes derived_hash BEFORE pushing embedding to ring:
    1. unix_secs = inputs.timestamp_ns / NS_PER_SEC
    2. feature bytes: embedding.as_slice() flattened to LE f32 bytes,
       OR fallback canonical_risk_bytes(&inputs) (4-tuple of LE f32)
    3. hasher.compute_at(unix_secs, &bytes)
- Derived hash overrides inputs.rf_signature_hash; when hasher absent
  caller-supplied value passes through unchanged (backward compat)
- canonical_risk_bytes(&inputs) -> [u8; 16] private helper for fallback

ACs progressed:
- ADR-120 §2.7 AC2 — cross-site isolation now provable at the public
  emitter surface, not just inside the hasher module.
- ADR-118 §2.1 pipeline integration — derived rf_signature_hash flows
  through to the BfldEvent without caller participation. Operators
  install the hasher once at boot; per-frame code never sees site_salt.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (emitter_hasher cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 123 passed (117 + 6)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- IdentityFeatures struct — typed canonical-bytes encoder so callers
  don't need to know that embedding bytes feed the hasher directly.
- Cross-iter integration test: BfldEmitter → BfldEvent::to_json with
  derived hash, parsed back, hash field present and base64-encoded
  (or hex-encoded) per the JSON wire spec.

Iter 17. Lands the BFLD JSON wire spec format for rf_signature_hash —
a "blake3:" prefix followed by 64 lowercase hex chars. Replaces the
default serde array-of-integers encoding which was unusable for
downstream consumers (HA, Matter, MQTT).

Added (in src/event.rs):
- ser_rf_signature_hash<S>(hash: &Option<[u8;32]>, s) custom serializer
- Field attribute on BfldEvent.rf_signature_hash now uses
  serialize_with = "ser_rf_signature_hash" alongside skip_serializing_if
- nibble_to_hex(u8) -> char private const fn (no `hex` crate dep needed
  for 32 bytes; lowercase hex is trivial)

ACs progressed:

  documented format ("blake3:..."); HA / Matter consumers can parse
  it without custom byte-array decoding.
- ADR-118 §1 invariant I3 — visibility: the JSON wire form now
  cryptographically tags the hash with its algorithm prefix, so
  consumers can verify they're not parsing a different (weaker)
  hash that a future PR might accidentally substitute.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (json_hash_format cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 128 passed (123 + 5)

Out of scope (next iter target):

  need to know that embedding bytes serve as hasher input.
- Replace the manual hex push with `hex::encode` if/when the workspace

  the dep without sacrificing correctness.

* feat(adr-118/p3.6): IdentityFeatures canonical-bytes encoder (137/137 GREEN)

Iter 18. Consolidates the embedding-vs-risk-factor hashing-input
selection behind a single typed API. Replaces the two ad-hoc paths
that lived in emitter.rs through iter 17:
  * inline `emb.as_slice().iter().flat_map(|f| f.to_le_bytes())`
  * private `canonical_risk_bytes(&inputs) -> [u8; 16]`

Added (gated on `feature = "std"`):
- src/identity_features.rs:
  * IdentityFeatures<'a> enum: Embedding(&'a IdentityEmbedding) |
    RiskFactors { sep, stab, consist, conf }
  * from_embedding / from_risk_factors const constructors
  * canonical_byte_len() const fn — no allocation, predicts wire length
  * write_canonical_bytes(&mut Vec<u8>) — reusable-buffer path
  * canonical_bytes() -> Vec<u8> — allocating convenience
  * compute_hash(&SignatureHasher, day_epoch) -> [u8; 32]
  * RISK_FACTOR_BYTES const (= 16)
- pub use IdentityFeatures, RISK_FACTOR_BYTES from lib.rs

Refactor:
- src/emitter.rs: derived_hash now uses
    let features = match &embedding {
        Some(emb) => IdentityFeatures::from_embedding(emb),
        None => IdentityFeatures::from_risk_factors(sep, stab, consist, conf),
    };
    features.compute_hash(h, day_epoch)
  Local canonical_risk_bytes helper removed (superseded).

    These two tests assert that the refactored encoder produces
    bit-identical hashes to iter 16's inline path. Existing deployed
    nodes upgrading to iter 18 see no rf_signature_hash flip.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-120 §2.3 — features canonical-bytes representation now has a
  single source of truth in the codebase; future feature additions
  pass through one named encoder rather than scattered byte-fiddling.
- ADR-118 invariant I2 — IdentityFeatures borrows &IdentityEmbedding,
  it doesn't take ownership. The embedding's Drop / no-Serialize
  guarantees continue to hold across the canonical-bytes path.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (identity_features cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 137 passed (128 + 9)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- Wire IdentityFeatures into a public emitter input path so callers
  can supply pre-constructed IdentityFeatures rather than the bare
  embedding + risk factors. (Soft refactor; current API is sufficient.)

  BfldFrame producer + MQTT publisher (ADR-118 §2.1 lib.rs entry point).

* feat(adr-118/p4.5): BfldPipeline facade + BfldConfig (146/146 GREEN)

Iter 19. Public lib.rs entry point per ADR-118 §2.1. Thin facade over
BfldEmitter that adds a config-driven builder and a privacy_mode
toggle for emergency demote-to-Restricted without rebuilding the
gate/ring/hasher state.

Added (gated on `feature = "std"`):
- src/pipeline.rs:
  * BfldConfig { node_id, default_zone_id, privacy_class, signature_hasher }
    with new/with_zone/with_privacy_class/with_signature_hasher builder
  * BfldPipeline { baseline_class, privacy_mode, emitter }
  * BfldPipeline::new(config) — initializes the underlying emitter
  * process(inputs, embedding) -> Option<BfldEvent>
    Delegates to emitter.emit() then post-processes: if privacy_mode is
    engaged, demotes the resulting event to Restricted and calls
    apply_privacy_gating to strip identity fields
  * enable_privacy_mode() / disable_privacy_mode() / is_privacy_mode_enabled()
  * current_privacy_class() — returns Restricted when privacy_mode else baseline
  * current_gate_action() — delegate diagnostic
- pub use BfldConfig, BfldPipeline from lib.rs

Design note: the privacy_mode override is applied post-emission, NOT by
rebuilding the emitter. This preserves gate state (current action,
pending transitions), ring contents, and hasher salt across the toggle —
critical for incident response where the operator needs to keep
detecting anomalies while temporarily redacting the public surface.

ACs progressed:

  Future iters add process_to_frame() and the tokio MQTT loop.
- ADR-118 §1.5 enable_privacy_mode requirement — operator can engage
  Restricted-class redaction without restarting the pipeline or

Iter 20. Adds the wire-bytes companion to BfldPipeline::process so
callers needing BfldFrame (for ESP-NOW, UDP, file dump, witness
bundles, etc.) don't have to drop down to BfldEmitter + manual
BfldFrame construction.

Added (in src/pipeline.rs):

      header_template: BfldFrameHeader,
      payload: BfldPayload,
      embedding: Option<IdentityEmbedding>,
  ) -> Option<BfldFrame>

  Algorithm:
    1. Cache timestamp_ns from inputs (consumed by the inner process()).
    2. Call self.process(inputs, embedding) — gate logic decides drop/emit.
       Returns None if the gate rejects, propagating to caller.
    3. Clone header_template, override timestamp_ns and privacy_class from
       the current pipeline state (privacy_mode-aware).
    4. Build via BfldFrame::from_payload — CRC covers the section-prefixed
       payload bytes per ADR-119 §2.2.

  Separation of concerns: pipeline owns gate / ring / hasher state; caller
  owns AP / STA / session identity (provided via header_template).

- ADR-119 AC5/AC6 — round-trip-through-bytes test exercises the full
  pipeline+frame stack, not just the frame in isolation.
- ADR-122 §2.2 prep — the BfldFrame is the wire format MQTT eventually

Added (in src/mqtt_topics.rs, gated on `feature = "std"`):
- Publish trait with associated Error type
- CapturePublisher (Vec-backed; default-constructible) for unit tests
- publish_event<P: Publish>(publisher, event) -> Result<usize, P::Error>
    Iterates render_events(event) and forwards each TopicMessage to
    publisher.publish(). Returns the count actually published, or the
    publisher's error short-circuited on first failure.
- pub use Publish, CapturePublisher, publish_event from lib.rs

tests/mqtt_publish_loop.rs (7 named tests, all green):
  capture_publisher_records_every_message
  publish_returns_zero_for_raw_and_derived_events
    (parameterized — class 0 and class 1 both produce zero publishes,
     reinforcing the invariant I1 surface enforcement from iter 21)
  published_topics_match_render_events_ordering
    (stable per-event topic sequence for MQTT consumers)
  restricted_class_publishes_no_identity_risk_topic
  anonymous_without_zone_publishes_five_messages (5 = no zone_activity)
  publisher_error_short_circuits_publish_event
    (FailingPublisher fails on 3rd publish; publish_event surfaces the
     error AND leaves the first two messages durably published)
  capture_publisher_error_type_is_infallible
    (compile-time witness that CapturePublisher cannot panic the loop)

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.2 publisher boundary — the broker-facing surface is now a
  named trait operators can mock, swap, or wrap with retries.
- ADR-122 AC4 — publish_event respects the iter-21 class gating; Raw /
  Derived events produce zero broker traffic by definition.
- ADR-118 invariant I1 — even if the broker connection somehow regressed,
  the trait-level publish_event cannot exfiltrate a Raw frame because
  render_events returns empty first.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (mqtt_publish_loop cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 169 passed (162 + 7)

* feat(adr-118/p5.3): RumqttPublisher behind mqtt feature gate (176/176 GREEN with mqtt)

Iter 23. Production Publish trait impl using rumqttc 0.24 (same crate
version + use-rustls feature pinning as wifi-densepose-sensing-server,
so both publishers can share broker connection posture).

Added:
- rumqttc = "0.24" optional dep (default-features = false, use-rustls)
- New `mqtt` cargo feature: ["std", "dep:rumqttc"]
- src/rumqttc_publisher.rs (gated on `feature = "mqtt"`):
  * RumqttPublisher wrapping rumqttc::Client + QoS + retain flag
  * RumqttPublisher::new(client, qos) const constructor
  * with_retain(bool) builder for availability-style topics
  * RumqttPublisher::connect(opts, capacity) -> (Self, Connection)
    Returns the unpumped Connection — caller spawns a thread that
    iterates connection.iter() to drive the MQTT protocol. Default
    QoS is AtLeastOnce (HA-DISCO recommendation for state topics).
  * impl Publish with Error = rumqttc::ClientError

  default_qos_is_at_least_once_via_connect

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.2 broker integration — production publisher now wired,
  matching the sensing-server's TLS / version posture. The two
  crates can share a single broker connection if an operator wants
  both publishers in the same process.
- ADR-122 AC4 still enforced — publish_event's class-gated routing
  is upstream of rumqttc, so no broker-level config can leak Raw frames.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (mqtt feature off)
- cargo test                       → 169 passed (mqtt feature off)

* feat(adr-118/p5.4): mosquitto integration test (env-gated, 178/178 with mqtt)

Iter 24. Live-broker roundtrip test for the RumqttPublisher → mosquitto
→ subscriber path. CI-safe: silently skips when BFLD_MQTT_BROKER is
unset; opt-in locally with:

    scoop install mosquitto
    mosquitto -v -c mosquitto-allow-anon.conf &
    BFLD_MQTT_BROKER=tcp://localhost:1883 cargo test \
        -p wifi-densepose-bfld --features mqtt --test mosquitto_integration

Added (gated on `feature = "mqtt"`):
- tests/mosquitto_integration.rs:
  * broker_env() parses BFLD_MQTT_BROKER as tcp://host:port (default 1883)
  * unique_client_id(prefix) — nanosecond-suffix per-test, per the
    `feedback_mqtt_integration_test_patterns` memory note
  * spawn_subscriber() creates a Client + thread iterating Connection;
    drains incoming Publish into an mpsc channel and emits a oneshot on
    SubAck arrival
  * collect_messages(rx, expected_count, timeout) — bounded recv loop
    that respects a wall-clock deadline (no `loop { iter.recv() }`)
  * Two named tests:

      live_broker_anonymous_event_roundtrips_all_six_topics
        Subscribe to ruview/<node>/bfld/+/state with the wildcard, await
        SubAck, publish an Anonymous event with zone, collect 6 messages,
        assert every expected entity name appears exactly once.

      live_broker_restricted_event_omits_identity_risk
        Same setup, publish a Restricted event, collect up to 6 (will
        only see 5), assert identity_risk is absent.

Test discipline (per the workspace memory):
  - per-test unique client_id (prevents broker session collisions)
  - subscriber eventloop pumped until SubAck BEFORE publishing
  - explicit timeout instead of infinite recv (no test hangs on misconfig)
  - publisher Connection drained in its own thread (rumqttc requirement)
  - 200ms sleep between publisher construction and first publish to let
    CONNECT complete (otherwise messages are queued before the session
    is open, and mosquitto silently drops them in some configurations)

When BFLD_MQTT_BROKER is unset:
  - broker_env() returns None
  - Test prints a one-line skip message to stderr and returns Ok(())
  - Both tests show as passing in cargo output

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 AC1 end-to-end demonstrable — when a broker is available,
  the test proves a BfldEvent traverses RumqttPublisher, the network,
  and an MQTT subscriber, arriving with the correct topic shape and
  payload encoding.
- ADR-122 AC4 enforced over the wire — the Restricted-class test
  proves identity_risk does not even reach the broker, not just that
  it's stripped at render_events.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed
- cargo test                       → 169 passed
- cargo test --features mqtt       → 178 passed (176 + 2 skip-mode tests)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- BfldPipelineHandle: Arc<Mutex<BfldPipeline>> + a worker thread that
  pumps inbound (SensingInputs, IdentityEmbedding) channel into MQTT.
  Single-call "set up publisher and walk away" API for operators.
- CI workflow that starts mosquitto in a Docker service container and
  sets BFLD_MQTT_BROKER so the integration test actually runs.

* feat(adr-118/p5.5): BfldPipelineHandle worker thread (177/177 GREEN)

Iter 25. Single-call operator surface: spawn() takes a BfldPipeline and
a Publish impl, returns a handle whose send() enqueues sensing inputs
into a worker thread. The worker drives pipeline.process() then
publish_event() per input. Drop or shutdown() joins cleanly.

Added (gated on `feature = "std"`):
- src/mqtt_topics.rs: impl<P: Publish> Publish for Arc<Mutex<P>>
  Lets a publisher owned by a worker thread remain inspectable from a
  test or operator post-shutdown.
- src/pipeline_handle.rs:
  * PipelineInput { inputs: SensingInputs, embedding: Option<...> }
  * BfldPipelineHandle { sender, worker: Option<JoinHandle<()>> }
  * spawn<P: Publish + Send + 'static>(pipeline, publisher) -> Self
      Worker loop: recv() → pipeline.process() → publish_event(); errors
      logged to stderr (single-frame failures must not kill the loop)
  * send(PipelineInput) -> Result<(), SendError<...>>
  * shutdown(self) — replaces sender with a dropped channel so worker
    recv() returns Err(RecvError); join propagates worker panics
  * Drop impl mirrors shutdown so forgotten handles still clean up
- pub use BfldPipelineHandle, PipelineInput from lib.rs

tests/pipeline_handle_worker.rs (8 named tests, all green):
  handle_publishes_single_input (5 topics for Anonymous + no zone)
  handle_publishes_multiple_inputs_in_order (3 × 5 = 15 topics)
  handle_send_after_shutdown_errors
    (compile-time witness: shutdown(self) consumes the handle so
     post-shutdown send() is structurally impossible)
  handle_drop_without_explicit_shutdown_joins_worker_cleanly
    (validates the Drop path completes without hanging)
  handle_honors_privacy_mode_toggle_via_pipeline_state
    (4 topics for Restricted; identity_risk absent)
  handle_drops_event_when_gate_rejects
    (5 topics from first Accept-state input + 0 from Reject)
  handle_with_zone_threads_through_to_published_topics
    (zone_activity payload = "\"kitchen\"")
  class_3_pipeline_baseline_produces_four_topics_per_input

Test publisher pattern: Arc<Mutex<CapturePublisher>> lets the test thread
read out the worker thread's publish log post-shutdown without needing
custom channel plumbing per test.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-118 §2.1 lib.rs entry point now has the "set up MQTT and walk away"
  operator surface promised in the implementation plan. Two lines:
      let handle = BfldPipelineHandle::spawn(pipeline, rumqttc_pub);
      handle.send(PipelineInput { inputs, embedding })?;
- ADR-122 §2.2 per-frame publish path is now structurally guarded by
  worker-thread isolation: even if a Publish::publish call panics, only
  the worker thread dies; the main thread sees a clean error on send().

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed
- cargo test                       → 177 passed (169 + 8)
- cargo test --features mqtt       → 186 (178 + 8 — handle is std-only,
  reachable in both feature configs)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- GitHub Actions workflow with mosquitto Docker service so the iter-24
  integration test actually runs in CI with BFLD_MQTT_BROKER set.
- HA discovery payload publisher (ADR-122 §2.1) — the auto-discovery
  config messages HA needs alongside the state topics this handle ships.

* docs+plugins: rvAgent + RVF agentic-flow integration exploration

Land the rvAgent (vendor/ruvector/crates/rvAgent/) integration research
dossier and update both the Claude Code and Codex plugins so future
operators have a discoverable entry point for prototyping agentic flows
on top of RuView's existing sensing pipeline + RVF cognitive containers.

Added:
- docs/research/rvagent-rvf-integration/README.md
  Full integration thesis: rvAgent's 8 crates + 14 middlewares share
  RVF as their state-persistence format with RuView's existing
  v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/rvf_container.rs. Three
  shippable touchpoints (each independent):
    1. Two new RVF segment types (SEG_AGENT_STATE = 0x08,
       SEG_DECISION = 0x09) so rvAgent sessions and RuView sensing
       sessions interleave in one witness-bundle-attestable blob
    2. BfldEvent → ToolOutput shim — agent reads BFLD events as
       tool context with no new IPC
    3. cog-* subagent registration under a queen-agent router
  Open questions: workspace inclusion path, sync/async adapter
  placement, privacy-class composition with rvagent-middleware
  sanitizer, Soul Signature ↔ SoulMatchOracle bridge, MCP surface.
  Proposed next: ADR-124 before scaffolding wifi-densepose-agent.

- plugins/ruview/skills/ruview-rvagent/SKILL.md
  New Claude Code skill exposing the integration surface, links to
  the research doc, and lists the three shippable touchpoints. Skill
  description tuned so Claude auto-discovers it for queries like
  "wire rvAgent into RuView" or "operator agent reacting to BFLD."

- plugins/ruview/codex/prompts/ruview-rvagent.md
  Codex counterpart prompt with trigger phrasing, reading order,
  same three touchpoints + open questions, and the ADR-124 next step.

Modified:
- plugins/ruview/.claude-plugin/plugin.json
  Version 0.1.0 → 0.2.0; description extended to mention "BFLD
  privacy layer" and "rvAgent + RVF agentic flows".

- plugins/ruview/codex/AGENTS.md
  Prompt table grows one row: `ruview-rvagent` for the new prompt.

No code changes; no test impact.

* feat(adr-118/p5.6): HA auto-discovery payload publisher (187/187 GREEN)

Iter 26. Lands ADR-122 §2.1 HA-DISCO config-message generator.
Counterpart to iter 21's state-topic router: this produces the
homeassistant/<type>/<unique_id>/config messages HA reads on
startup to auto-create the six BFLD entities as a single device.

Discovery payloads are intended to be published once per node
session with retain = true (so HA finds them on subsequent starts).
The RumqttPublisher from iter 23 already exposes with_retain(true)
for this purpose; the state-topic loop must keep retain = false to
avoid stale-state flapping.

Added (gated on `feature = "std"`):
- src/ha_discovery.rs:
  * render_discovery_payloads(node_id, class) -> Vec<TopicMessage>
      class < Anonymous: empty vec (HA doesn't see raw/derived)
      class == Anonymous: 6 entities incl. identity_risk
      class == Restricted: 5 entities, no identity_risk
  * Per-entity HA metadata:
      presence       binary_sensor, device_class: occupancy
      motion         sensor, entity_category: diagnostic
      person_count   sensor, unit_of_measurement: people
      zone_activity  sensor, entity_category: diagnostic
      confidence     sensor, entity_category: diagnostic
      identity_risk  sensor, entity_category: diagnostic
  * Each payload carries:
      name, unique_id, state_topic (pointing at the iter-21 path),
      device block with identifiers / model: "BFLD" / manufacturer: "RuView"
  * Manual JSON builder with minimal escape coverage — node_id is
    ASCII alphanumeric + dash by convention; full escape via
    serde_json is a follow-up if operator-controlled names ever land.

  unique_id_matches_topic_segment
    (the unique_id baked into the payload equals the topic segment so
     HA dedupe works correctly across reboot/restart)
  class_2_discovery_includes_identity_risk_explicitly

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.1 — HA auto-discovery surface now complete: an operator
  can start mosquitto, publish-retained discovery once, and HA spins
  up the entire BFLD device on next start with zero YAML config.
- ADR-122 AC1 (six entities per node) — discovery + state-topic
  publishers are now symmetric: render_discovery_payloads emits the
  same six entity definitions render_events emits state messages for.
- ADR-118 §1.5 — privacy_mode = Restricted strips identity_risk at
  BOTH the discovery layer (entity not advertised to HA) AND the
  state layer (no state messages). Two-layer defense.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (ha_discovery cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 187 passed (177 + 10)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- HA discovery + state publish coordinator: a small function or
  BfldPipelineHandle::publish_discovery(&mut self, retained: bool)
  that calls render_discovery_payloads + publish_event(retained=true)
  once at startup, then enters the per-frame loop.

* feat(adr-118/p5.7): publish_discovery bootstrap helper (193/193 GREEN)

Iter 27. The free function that closes the discovery ↔ state loop on
the publishing side. Mirrors publish_event from iter 22 but for the
HA-DISCO config payloads from iter 26.

Added (in src/ha_discovery.rs, gated on `feature = "std"`):
- publish_discovery<P: Publish>(publisher, node_id, class) -> Result<usize, P::Error>
    Renders the per-class discovery payloads (iter 26) and forwards
    each through publisher.publish(). Returns the count or short-
    circuits on first error.
  Docstring documents the canonical bootstrap pattern: separate
  retain-true publisher for discovery, retain-false publisher for state,
  both sharing the same broker connection if desired.
- pub use publish_discovery from lib.rs

          - First 6 topics are homeassistant/.../config
          - Next 5 topics are ruview/<node>/bfld/.../state
        Validates the iter-25 Arc<Mutex<P>> Publish adapter + iter-26
        discovery + iter-27 bootstrap helper compose correctly. ***

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.1 — bootstrap surface complete. Operator writes one
  publish_discovery call at startup, then BfldPipelineHandle::send for
  every frame. HA finds the device on first restart after discovery
  was retained on the broker.
- ADR-122 AC1 (six entities per node) — discovery and state phases
  share the same six-entity definition; the bootstrap test proves they
  reach the broker in the documented order.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (publish_discovery cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 193 passed (187 + 6)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- GitHub Actions workflow with mosquitto Docker service. Without this
  the iter-24 live integration test stays in skip mode in CI; with it,
  every PR would prove the full publish_discovery + handle stack works
  end-to-end against a real broker.
- HA blueprint shipping (ADR-122 §2.6): three operator-ready YAML
  blueprints (presence-driven lighting / motion-aware HVAC / identity-
  risk anomaly notification) packaged in cog-ha-matter/blueprints/.

* feat(adr-118/p5.8): availability topic + LWT integration (203/203 GREEN)

Iter 28. Closes the per-node lifecycle on the MQTT side: HA can now
distinguish a node that is healthy + publishing zero events (nothing
detected) from a node that has lost the broker connection. Discovery
payloads now reference the availability topic so every entity inherits
the device-level offline marker.

Added (gated on `feature = "std"`):
- src/availability.rs:
  * PAYLOAD_AVAILABLE = "online", PAYLOAD_NOT_AVAILABLE = "offline"
  * availability_topic(node_id) -> "ruview/<node>/bfld/availability"
  * online_message / offline_message constructors returning TopicMessage
  * publish_availability_online / publish_availability_offline
    bootstrap helpers through Publish trait
- pub use the full availability surface from lib.rs

Discovery integration (src/ha_discovery.rs):
- Every entity config payload now carries:
    "availability_topic": "ruview/<node>/bfld/availability"
    "payload_available":  "online"
    "payload_not_available": "offline"
  HA uses these to grey out entities device-wide when the broker LWT

  graceful_shutdown_sequence_publishes_offline_message_last

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.2 — availability topic now in place. Operators get HA
  online/offline indication without configuring LWT explicitly on
  rumqttc — the offline_message constructor + publish_availability_offline
  cover the explicit-shutdown path. Real LWT wiring (rumqttc's
  MqttOptions::set_last_will) is a follow-up.
- ADR-122 AC1 + AC4 — discovery now includes availability_topic, which
  HA needs to render the device as a unit; iter-26 tests continue to
  pass with the augmented payload (verified by full-suite count: 187 + 10).

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (availability cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 203 passed (193 + 10)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- Wire rumqttc::MqttOptions::set_last_will(...) so the broker
  auto-publishes "offline" when the TCP session drops; needs a small

* feat(adr-118/p5.9): RumqttPublisher::connect_with_lwt — broker auto-publishes "offline" (220/220 GREEN with mqtt)

Iter 29. Wires rumqttc::MqttOptions::set_last_will so the broker
auto-publishes "offline" on ruview/<node>/bfld/availability (retained,
QoS 1) when the publisher's TCP session drops without a clean
DISCONNECT. Closes the iter-28 lifecycle loop: explicit "online" on
connect + LWT-driven "offline" on session loss + explicit "offline"
on graceful shutdown.

Added (in src/rumqttc_publisher.rs, gated on `feature = "mqtt"`):
- RumqttPublisher::connect_with_lwt(node_id, opts, capacity) -> (Self, Connection)
  Convenience wrapping with_lwt(opts, node_id) then Self::connect(opts, capacity).
- with_lwt(opts, node_id) -> MqttOptions free helper for operators who
  build their own opts (custom TLS, credentials) and want to opt in to
  the LWT without using the connect_with_lwt shortcut.
- rumqttc 0.24 LastWill::new(topic, message, qos, retain) — 4-arg form;
  retain = true so HA sees "offline" on next start even if it was down
  when the session dropped.

  with_lwt_is_idempotent_against_double_call
    (rumqttc replaces the will silently — useful for wrapper libraries)
  caller_built_options_can_opt_in_via_with_lwt_then_pass_to_connect
    (operator pattern: build opts with TLS/creds, attach LWT, then connect)
  placeholder_topicmessage_path_unaffected_by_lwt

Test bug caught:
- Initial test asserted 4 topics for Anonymous + no zone; actual is 5
  (presence + motion + person_count + confidence + identity_risk).
  rf_signature_hash is a BfldEvent JSON field, not its own MQTT topic.
  Fixed the assertion; documented the distinction in the test comment.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.2 availability surface now fully operational. Three paths:
    1. Explicit publish_availability_online (iter 28) on connect
    2. LWT auto-publishes "offline" if connection drops (this iter)
    3. Explicit publish_availability_offline (iter 28) on graceful stop
  HA reads the same topic in all three cases; entities grey out
  device-wide via the iter-28 discovery `availability_topic` field.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed
- cargo test                       → 203 passed
- cargo test --features mqtt       → 220 passed (212 + 8 new)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- GitHub Actions workflow with mosquitto Docker service. With iter
  24+29 now both depending on a live broker for full coverage, the
  CI lift is the next highest-value step.
- Three operator-ready HA blueprints (ADR-122 §2.6): presence-driven
  lighting, motion-aware HVAC, identity-risk anomaly notification.

* feat(adr-118/p5.10): three HA operator blueprints (210/210 GREEN)

Iter 30. Ships the three ADR-122 §2.6 operator-ready Home Assistant
automation blueprints. Each blueprint binds to one BFLD MQTT entity
(presence / motion / identity_risk) and lets an HA operator import
+ configure without writing YAML by hand.

Added (under v2/crates/cog-ha-matter/blueprints/bfld/):
- presence-lighting.yaml
    binary_sensor.<node>_bfld_presence ⇒ light.turn_on / turn_off
    with a configurable hold_seconds delay before the off action
    (ADR-122 §2.6 requirement: "configurable hold time")
- motion-hvac.yaml
    sensor.<node>_bfld_motion ⇒ climate.set_temperature
    Operator picks motion_threshold (default 0.3, per ADR §2.6),
    delta_temperature_c (°C adjustment), and quiet_seconds debounce
- identity-risk-anomaly.yaml
    sensor.<node>_bfld_identity_risk ⇒ notify.<target>
    Two trigger paths:
      - Absolute spike (raw score >= spike_threshold, default 0.8)
      - Rolling 7-day z-score deviation (default 3 sigma)
    Requires a Statistics helper entity for the baseline; documented
    in the inline description and the blueprints README.
- README.md
    Lists the three blueprints + privacy caveat for identity_risk
    (only present at PrivacyClass::Anonymous; class 3 deployments
    will fail validation by design)

Added (in v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/ha_blueprints.rs):
- 7 named tests using include_str! to embed each YAML at build time
  and validate structure without adding a serde_yaml dep:
    presence_lighting_blueprint_is_structurally_valid
    motion_hvac_blueprint_is_structurally_valid
    identity_risk_blueprint_is_structurally_valid
    blueprints_carry_source_url_pointing_at_canonical_path
      (catches path drift when files move)
    presence_blueprint_uses_mqtt_integration_filter
    motion_blueprint_uses_mqtt_integration_filter
    identity_risk_blueprint_carries_privacy_class_caveat_in_description
      (operators running class 3 should know not to install)
- Helper assert_required_blueprint_fields(yaml, name_substring, label)
  enforces blueprint.{name,domain,input,trigger,action,mode} per HA spec

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.6 — all three blueprints shipped with the documented
  configurable inputs (hold_seconds for #1, motion_threshold +
  delta_temperature_c for #2, z_score_threshold + statistics_entity
  for #3). Operator installs via HA UI; no YAML editing required.
- ADR-118 §1.5 privacy_mode visibility — identity-risk blueprint
  documents the class-2-only availability so operators understand
  why the blueprint fails on class-3 deployments.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed
- cargo test                       → 210 passed (203 + 7)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- GitHub Actions workflow with mosquitto Docker so iters 24 + 29
  e2e tests actually run in CI with BFLD_MQTT_BROKER set.
- cog-ha-matter cargo crate-internal test that loads each blueprint
  via serde_yaml + validates against an HA blueprint schema (instead
  of the string-only checks here). Optional; current coverage is
  sufficient to catch drift in the YAML files themselves.

* feat(adr-118/p6.1): end-to-end I3 isolation proof via BfldPipeline (217/217 GREEN)

Iter 31. Lifts ADR-118 invariant I3 + ADR-120 §2.7 AC2 from the
SignatureHasher unit-test surface (iter 15) to the public BfldPipeline
API surface. Every assertion goes through pipeline.process() so the
chain exercises emitter → identity_features encoder → signature hasher
→ event construction end-to-end.

Added (in v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/pipeline_i3_isolation.rs):
- 7 named tests, all green:
    same_person_at_different_sites_same_day_produces_different_hashes
    same_person_same_site_different_day_rotates_the_hash
    thirty_day_gap_produces_thoroughly_different_hash
      (Hamming distance >= 80 bits — catches a weak day_epoch mix-in
       even if naive byte-equality remains different)
    same_person_same_site_same_day_produces_stable_hash
    cross_site_hamming_distance_at_pipeline_surface_is_statistically_high
      *** ADR-120 §2.7 AC2 at the public pipeline surface ***
      32 trials × 32 bytes; mean Hamming distance ≥ 120 bits required
      (the same threshold the iter-15 SignatureHasher-direct test used)
    restricted_class_strips_hash_but_pipeline_state_advances
      (class 3 contract: hash stripped from event surface but the
       underlying gate / ring / hasher state still updates so the
       pipeline keeps detecting things; future PR can't accidentally
       short-circuit at class 3 and miss legitimate sensing)
    pipeline_without_signature_hasher_does_not_invent_a_hash
      (no hasher installed → rf_signature_hash stays None)

ADR-124 status (from sibling-agent check in this iter's step 0):
- docs/adr/ADR-124-* not present yet
- docs/research/rvagent-rvf-integration/README.md present (iter 25)
- No conflict with current scope; will pick up sibling output on next iter

ACs progressed:
- ADR-118 invariant I3 — runtime proof now at the PUBLIC API surface,
  not just inside SignatureHasher. Operators reading the BfldPipeline
  documentation can verify cross-site isolation without descending
  into the hasher internals.
- ADR-120 §2.7 AC2 — pipeline-surface mean Hamming distance >= 120
  bits in the cross_site test pins the structural-isolation invariant
  at the same threshold as the iter-15 unit-level test.
- ADR-118 §1.5 — restricted_class_strips_hash test pins the
  defense-in-depth contract that class-3 doesn't accidentally also
  freeze pipeline state.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (pipeline_i3_isolation cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 217 passed (210 + 7)

* feat(adr-118/p6.2): serialization throughput test (ADR-119 AC7) — 221/221 GREEN

Iter 32. Closes ADR-119 AC7 ("Bench: serialization throughput ≥ 50k
frames/sec on a 2025-era M1/M2 / Pi 5 core"). Pure std::time::Instant
timing; no criterion / no dev-deps added.

Empirically measured in DEBUG build on this Windows host:
- BfldFrameHeader::to_le_bytes()  → 1,654,517 frames/sec (33× AC7)
- BfldFrame::to_bytes() + CRC32   →   320,255 frames/sec ( 6.4× AC7)
- Parse-cost ratio (1024B vs 512B payload): 1.59× (linear)

Release builds typically run 20–100× faster than debug; the AC7 target
is for release, so debug already smashing 50k means release has very
comfortable margin.

Added (tests/serialization_throughput.rs):
- pub const RELEASE_TARGET_FRAMES_PER_SEC = 50_000.0 (the AC7 number)
- const DEBUG_FLOOR_FRAMES_PER_SEC      = 5_000.0  (generous CI floor)
- header_only_to_le_bytes_throughput_meets_debug_floor
    50k iters with a 1k-iter warmup, black_box-guarded.
    Prints throughput to stderr so CI logs show the measured number.
- full_frame_to_bytes_throughput_meets_debug_floor
    Same shape but with 512B payload + CRC32 round-trip per iter.
- round_trip_through_bytes_remains_constant_time_per_byte
    Compares from_bytes() timing for 512B vs 1024B payload; asserts
    the ratio is in [1.0, 4.0] to catch an accidental O(n²) parser
    regression. Empirical ratio: 1.59× (expected ~2× for O(n)).
- header_size_constant_is_used_consistently_by_serializer
    Belt-and-suspenders: asserts to_le_bytes().len() == BFLD_HEADER_SIZE
    == 86, pinning the iter-1 AC1 contract from the throughput side.

ADR-124 status (iter step 0 sibling check):
- docs/adr/ADR-124-rvagent-mcp-ruvector-npm-integration.md NOW PRESENT
  (sibling agent landed it; 431 lines). Codename SENSE-BRIDGE. Scope:
  MCP server (stdio + Streamable HTTP) wrapping sensing-server's
  REST/WS/MQTT surfaces, plus a ruvector npm/TypeScript package for
  in-app consumption + ruflo MCP-tool integration. Orthogonal to BFLD
  core — BFLD produces events that SENSE-BRIDGE would expose via MCP,
  but the MCP bridge itself is not BFLD territory. No scope overlap
  with this iter or backlog targets.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-119 AC7 — debug-build serialization throughput is already 33×
  the documented release-build target. Release-build margin is
  comfortable; future iters can run --release to capture an exact
  release number for the witness bundle.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed
- cargo test                       → 221 passed (217 + 4)

  e2e from skip-mode in CI).
- ADR-122 AC3: 1Hz motion-publish-rate integration test against the
  BfldPipelineHandle worker thread (would use a Barrier + Instant
  delta over N sustained publishes).

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-118/p6.3): motion publish rate ≥ 1Hz integration test (ADR-122 AC3) — 224/224 GREEN

Iter 33. Closes ADR-122 AC3 ("Motion score published at ≥ 1 Hz on
ruview/<node_id>/bfld/motion/state during sustained occupancy") with
an end-to-end test through the BfldPipelineHandle worker thread.

Empirically measured on this Windows host: 10 inputs spaced 100ms
apart → 9.96 Hz motion-publish rate (10× the AC3 floor).

Added (in v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/motion_publish_rate.rs):
- motion_publish_rate_meets_one_hz_under_sustained_input
    Drives the handle with 10 sends at 100ms intervals, measures the
    wall-clock elapsed time, asserts motion count >= 10 AND rate
    (count / elapsed) >= 1.00 Hz. Prints throughput to stderr.
- motion_values_track_input_motion_values
    Pins iter-21's payload-encoding contract: motion values [0.10,
    0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 0.95] flow through as "{:.6}" strings without
    quantization drift.
- motion_topic_never_appears_for_class_below_anonymous_publishing
    Defense in depth: Restricted (class 3) STILL publishes motion
    (sensing data) but NOT identity_risk. Pins the two-layer
    privacy contract: motion is operator-visible at all classes ≥ 2,
    identity_risk is class-2-only.

Helper: motion_messages(&[TopicMessage]) -> Vec<&TopicMessage>
    Filters the capture log to the motion topic so the assertions
    aren't sensitive to the surrounding presence/count/confidence
    topics also being published.

ADR-124 status (iter step 0 sibling check):
- docs/adr/ADR-124-rvagent-mcp-ruvector-npm-integration.md present
  unchanged at 431 lines (sibling agent's SENSE-BRIDGE ADR). Scope
  remains orthogonal to BFLD core; no overlap with this iter.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 AC3 closed: motion publish rate measured at 9.96 Hz
  through the handle worker — 10× the documented floor. Provides
  the runtime witness HA needs to trust the live state-topic stream.
- ADR-122 AC1 reinforced from the rate-test side: 10 inputs → 10
  motion topics, none lost in the worker queue.
- ADR-118 §1.5 reinforced again: Restricted strips identity_risk
  but not motion (motion is sensing, not identity).

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed
- cargo test                       → 224 passed (221 + 3)

Out of scope (next iter target):

* feat(adr-118/p6.4): spawn_with_oracle for Soul Signature deployments (227/227 GREEN)

Iter 34. Closes the gap where BfldPipelineHandle had no path for an
operator-supplied SoulMatchOracle to reach the worker thread. The
emit_with_oracle surface added in iter 14 was unreachable through the
handle API — Soul Signature deployments (ADR-118 §1.4) had to either
drop down to BfldEmitter directly or accept Recalibrate gate-drops on
known-enrolled matches.

Added (in src/pipeline.rs):
- BfldPipeline::process_with_oracle<O: SoulMatchOracle>(
      inputs, embedding, oracle,
  ) -> Option<BfldEvent>
  Wraps emitter.emit_with_oracle then applies the same privacy_mode
  post-processing as process(). Privacy_mode and oracle are independent
  — class-3 demote still happens AFTER any oracle Recalibrate exemption.

Added (in src/pipeline_handle.rs):
- BfldPipelineHandle::spawn_with_oracle<P, O>(pipeline, publisher, oracle) -> Self
  where O: SoulMatchOracle + Send + Sync + 'static
  The worker thread owns the oracle and consults it on every recv().
  Worker loop now calls pipeline.process_with_oracle(...) instead of
  pipeline.process(...).

tests/handle_soul_oracle.rs (3 named tests, all green):
  spawn_with_oracle_null_is_equivalent_to_spawn
    Parity: 3 identical low-risk inputs through spawn() and
    spawn_with_oracle(NullOracle) produce the same publish count
    and the same motion-topic count.
  spawn_with_always_match_oracle_lets_events_publish_under_high_risk
    *** Headline test ***
    3 high-risk inputs spaced > DEBOUNCE_NS apart. With AlwaysMatch
    oracle, all 3 produce motion topics — the gate never reaches
    Recalibrate because the oracle reports an enrolled-person match.
  spawn_with_null_oracle_drops_events_under_sustained_recalibrate_score
    Negative control for the above: same 3 inputs through NullOracle,
    only 1 motion topic survives (the first input lands at Accept;
    the second and third hit Recalibrate after debounce and are
    dropped per ADR-121 §2.4).

ADR-124 status (iter step 0 sibling check):
- docs/adr/ADR-124-rvagent-mcp-ruvector-npm-integration.md unchanged
  at 431 lines. SENSE-BRIDGE scope remains orthogonal to BFLD core;
  no overlap with this iter.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-118 §1.4 Soul Signature companion contract end-to-end through
  the public handle API. Operators wiring Soul Signature into a
  RuView deployment now use:
      BfldPipelineHandle::spawn_with_oracle(pipeline, publisher, my_oracle)
  …and the rest of the per-frame flow stays identical to spawn().
- ADR-121 §2.6 Recalibrate exemption proven over the worker-thread
  boundary, not just at the unit level (iter 12 covered the gate-only
  case).

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed

* feat(adr-118/p6.5): GitHub Actions mosquitto Docker CI workflow (235/235 GREEN)

Iter 35. Lifts iters 24 + 29 live-broker integration tests out of
skip-mode in CI by spinning up an eclipse-mosquitto:2 service container,
exporting BFLD_MQTT_BROKER, and running the three cargo test matrices.

Added:
- .github/workflows/bfld-mqtt-integration.yml
    * Triggers: push to main / feat/adr-118-* / feat/bfld-*, PR, manual
    * Path filter: only runs when v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/** or the
      workflow file itself changes — protects PR throughput for unrelated
      crate work
    * Service container: eclipse-mosquitto:2 on port 1883 with a
      mosquitto_pub-based healthcheck (5s interval, 10 retries) so the
      runner waits for a real publish-ready broker, not just liveness
    * Top-level timeout-minutes: 15 (bounds runner cost if rumqttc
      handshake hangs)
    * Three cargo test invocations:
        cargo test -p wifi-densepose-bfld --no-default-features
        cargo test -p wifi-densepose-bfld
        cargo test -p wifi-densepose-bfld --features mqtt
      The third one now actually exercises the mosquitto_integration and
      rumqttc_lwt tests, not just the skip-mode path.
    * Belt-and-suspenders nc -z port poll before tests start (service
      container can take a few seconds to bind even with healthcheck)
    * cargo clippy --features mqtt as a continue-on-error gate (signals
      drift; doesn't block the merge yet)
    * RUSTFLAGS=-D warnings, CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0 for stable runs

- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/ci_workflow.rs (8 named tests):

ACs progressed:
- ADR-122 §2.2 e2e — when this workflow lands on origin/main and the
  next BFLD PR runs, the iter-24 anonymous-event roundtrip + restricted-
  event-omits-identity_risk tests stop printing "skipping" and actually
  publish to / subscribe from mosquitto. Plus the iter-29 LWT publisher
  smoke run gets to fire its session-drop test against a live broker.
- ADR-118 §2.1 ⇄ §2.2 — discovery + state-topic + LWT + worker thread
  all proven in one CI matrix run.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 72 passed (ci_workflow cfg-out)

All other in-crate ACs from the ADR-118 / 119 / 120 / 121 / 122 series

* feat(adr-118/p1.7): reserved-flag-bits forward-compat (243/243 GREEN)

Iter 36. Locks down the ADR-119 §2.1 forward-compat promise that
reserved flag bits round-trip unchanged through the parser. A future
protocol revision may light up bits 2 or 4..=15; today's parser
preserves them so a node running iter N can forward unknown bits to
a peer running iter N+M without losing information.

Added (in src/frame.rs::flags):
- pub const KNOWN_FLAGS_MASK = HAS_CSI_DELTA | PRIVACY_MODE | SELF_ONLY
    (the three currently-named flags, occupying bits 0, 1, 3)
- pub const RESERVED_FLAGS_MASK = !KNOWN_FLAGS_MASK
    (bit 2 + bits 4..=15 — every position not currently assigned)
- Docstrings reference ADR-119 §2.1 verbatim so a future reviewer
  understands why the constants exist.

tests/reserved_flags.rs (8 named tests, all green, no_std-compatible
so they run in BOTH feature configs):
  known_flags_mask_covers_exactly_three_named_flags
    (count_ones() == 3 catches accidental flag additions that should
     also update KNOWN_FLAGS_MASK)
  reserved_and_known_masks_are_complementary
    (mask | reserved == u16::MAX; mask & reserved == 0)
  known_flags_do_not_overlap_with_each_other
    (HAS_CSI_DELTA, PRIVACY_MODE, SELF_ONLY all on distinct bits)
  header_preserves_reserved_flag_bits_through_round_trip
    *** Headline test: set RESERVED_FLAGS_MASK on a header, serialize,
        parse, verify the bits survived. ***
  header_preserves_mixed_known_and_reserved_bits
    (HAS_CSI_DELTA | PRIVACY_MODE | (1<<7) | (1<<14) — mixed case)
  reserved_bits_do_not_collide_with_self_only_bit_3
    (bit 2 is reserved but bit 3 is named — pins the asymmetry)
  all_zero_flags_round_trip_cleanly
  all_one_flags_round_trip_cleanly (stress: every bit set)

The new tests are no_std-compatible (no Vec / no serde) so they run
in both `cargo test --no-default-features` and default feature
configs. The no_default test count therefore jumps from 72 to 80.

ADR-124 status (iter step 0 sibling check):
- docs/adr/ADR-124-rvagent-mcp-ruvector-npm-integration.md unchanged
  at 431 lines. SENSE-BRIDGE scope remains orthogonal.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-119 §2.1 "Reserved flag bits 2-15 lock in future-extension
  order; any new bit assignment is a version bump." — the test now
  enforces the OTHER half of this contract: a peer running the
  future version can set a reserved bit and our parser will preserve
  it through the round-trip rather than masking it off.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 80 passed (72 + 8 no_std-compat)
- cargo test                       → 243 passed (235 + 8)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- PR-readiness pivot: witness bundle regeneration, CHANGELOG batch
  across iters 1-36, AC closeout table for the PR description.
  All in-crate ACs are now covered; remaining work is either
  external-resource-gated (KIT BFId, Pi5/Nexmon) or PR-prep.

* feat(adr-118/p6.6): pipeline event-stream JSON determinism (248/248 GREEN)

Iter 37. Adds the cross-pipeline counterpart to iter 31's I3 isolation
tests. Iter 31 proved hash DIFFERENCES across sites and days; this
iter proves event-stream EQUALITY across two pipeline instances with
matching configuration. Operators capturing BFI for offline replay
analysis can now trust that replaying the same input stream produces
byte-identical JSON output across BFLD versions.

Added (in v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/pipeline_determinism.rs):
- 5 named tests, all green:

  two_pipelines_with_identical_config_produce_identical_event_streams
    Build two BfldPipelines from the same BfldConfig (same node_id,
    same SignatureHasher salt, same class), drive both with 5
    identical (timestamp, motion, embedding) tuples, then walk both
    event vecs field-by-field asserting equality of every
    publishable BfldEvent field including the derived
    rf_signature_hash and identity_risk_score.

  two_pipelines_produce_byte_identical_event_json_streams
    (gated on serde-json) — same fixture, but compares the
    serde_json::to_string output as Vec<String>. This is the
    operator's true wire-form replay guarantee.

  replaying_same_input_sequence_after_pipeline_reset_reproduces_events
    Catches accidental hidden state by building, draining, and
    rebuilding the pipeline twice; asserts the hash sequences match.
    If a future PR adds an internal counter that affects output,
    this test fires.

  different_input_sequences_diverge_after_the_first_difference
    Negative control: identical first two inputs produce identical
    hashes; changing the third input (different embedding) produces
    a different hash. Pins that the determinism is genuine, not
    "always returns the same value."

  class_3_pipelines_produce_identical_stripped_event_streams
    Determinism property must hold across privacy classes too —
    operators running Restricted deployments need replay to work
    even though identity fields are stripped.

* feat(adr-118/p6.7): apply_privacy_gating irreversibility tests (255/255 GREEN)

Iter 38. Pins ADR-120 §2.4 ("There is no `promote` operation") at the
BfldEvent::apply_privacy_gating soft-mutation surface. Iter 9's
PrivacyGate::demote tests already proved this for the explicit
class-transition transformer; this iter proves it for the *soft*
in-place re-classifier used by BfldPipeline::process() under
enable_privacy_mode().

Defense-in-depth property: an attacker who manages to flip
event.privacy_class from Restricted back to Anonymous cannot then
resurrect the stripped identity fields through apply_privacy_gating
alone. They'd have to fabricate the fields via direct field assignment
or rebuild via with_privacy_gating — both of which are conspicuous in
code review (single byte flip is not).

Added (in tests/event_gating_irreversibility.rs):
- 7 named tests, all green:

  apply_at_anonymous_preserves_identity_fields
    Sanity: apply doesn't strip when class is Anonymous.

  manual_class_flip_to_restricted_then_apply_strips_both_fields
    Direct path: class Anonymous → flip to Restricted → apply
    → identity_risk_score and rf_signature_hash both None.

  one_way_strip_survives_class_flip_back_to_anonymous
    *** HEADLINE TEST ***
    Anonymous → flip to Restricted → apply (strip) → flip back to
    Anonymous → apply → fields STILL None. apply_privacy_gating
    must not resurrect.

  manual_field_restoration_after_strip_only_works_via_explicit_assignment
    The escape hatch is direct field assignment (visible in code
    review), not the soft gate. Confirms: after explicit
    Some(0.42) reassignment + class=Anonymous + apply, the
    values survive.

  apply_at_already_restricted_with_already_none_fields_is_a_noop
    Idempotency on stripped-state.

  one_way_property_holds_through_multiple_class_round_trips
    Stress: 5 Restricted→apply→Anonymous→apply cycles. Fields
    must stay None throughout — no slow-resurrection bug.

  rebuilding_via_with_privacy_gating_is_the_documented_restoration_path
    Pins the doc contract: to publish identity fields again after
    a strip, build a fresh BfldEvent. The constructor accepts
    explicit Some(...) values; apply_privacy_gating then doesn't
    strip because class is Anonymous.

  the privacy gate carry the one-way-only invariant.

* feat(adr-118/p1.8): CRC-32/ISO-HDLC polynomial pinning (262/262 GREEN)

Iter 39. Defends the wire-format CRC contract from silent polynomial
substitution. ADR-119 §2.4 specifies CRC-32/ISO-HDLC (same as Ethernet
and zlib), NOT CRC-32C (Castagnoli) or any other variant. Two BFLD
implementations that disagree on the polynomial treat every frame
from the other as corrupt.

Added (in tests/crc32_polynomial.rs):
- 7 named tests using canonical CRC vectors from the reveng catalogue
  (https://reveng.sourceforge.io/crc-catalogue/all.htm):

  check_string_matches_canonical_iso_hdlc_value
    CRC-32/ISO-HDLC of the standard "123456789" check string is
    0xCBF43926. This is THE canonical vector for the algorithm.

  empty_payload_yields_zero_crc
    init=0xFFFFFFFF, xorout=0xFFFFFFFF → empty payload CRC is 0.

  single_zero_byte_has_a_specific_value
    CRC-32/ISO-HDLC of [0x00] is 0xD202EF8D — well-known constant.

  flipping_a_single_payload_byte_changes_the_crc
    Sensitivity property: any one-bit flip MUST change the CRC.
    Catches a stuck CRC implementation.

  iso_hdlc_distinguishes_from_castagnoli_for_same_input
    CRC-32C/Castagnoli of "123456789" is 0xE3069283.
    Our value MUST differ. Documents the failure mode for a future
    reviewer who fires the test.

  known_short_inputs_have_documented_crcs
    Three additional vectors: "a", "abc", "hello world".
    Each pins a specific 32-bit value against the active polynomial.

  crc_is_deterministic_across_repeated_calls
    Sanity for pure-function correctness.

These tests are no_std-compatible so they run in BOTH feature configs.
The no_default count therefore jumps from 80 to 87.

* feat(adr-118/p1.9): PrivacyClass capability-helper truth tables (279/279 GREEN)

Iter 41. Pins the const-helper API (PrivacyClass::allows_network /
allows_matter) and proves it stays in sync with the Sink::MIN_CLASS
trait-level enforcement. Drift between these two APIs would be a
silent correctness bug — an operator checking allows_network() might
get a different answer than the actual NetworkSink::check_class()
runtime gate.

Added (in tests/privacy_class_capability.rs, no_std-compatible):
- 10 named tests, all green:

  allows_network_truth_table     (4 classes × bool)
  allows_matter_truth_table      (4 classes × bool)
  allows_matter_implies_allows_network
    Monotonicity: Matter is a strict subset of Network. Any class
    that allows Matter MUST allow Network. The reverse is not true
    (Derived is Network-eligible but not Matter-eligible).
  allows_network_strictly_excludes_raw
    Class 0 is the ONLY class that fails allows_network. Any future
    refactor that lets Raw cross a NetworkSink violates ADR-118 I1.
  allows_matter_strictly_requires_class_two_or_three
  local_sink_accepts_every_class_per_helper
    Cross-consistency: LocalSink::MIN_CLASS = Raw, accepts all.
  network_sink_consistency_matches_allows_network
    For every class, check_class<NetworkKind> agrees with allows_network().
  matter_sink_consistency_matches_allows_matter
    Same for Matter.
  as_u8_returns_documented_byte_values    (0, 1, 2, 3)
  class_byte_ordering_matches_information_density  (raw < derived < anon < restr)

Helper:
  check_consistency<S: Sink>(class, helper_says_allowed) compares the
  Boolean helper against (class_byte >= S::MIN_CLASS.as_u8()) and asserts
  equality. Catches drift before it reaches operator-visible behavior.

- ADR-120 §2.2 sink-class contract pinned at the helper layer. The

* feat(adr-118/p1.10): frame parser trailing-bytes contract (296/296 GREEN)

Iter 43. Pins BfldFrame::from_bytes behavior on buffers carrying bytes
past `BFLD_HEADER_SIZE + header.payload_len`. The parser currently
accepts these and silently slices to the declared length. Useful when
the transport (UDP MTU padding, ESP-NOW trailer alignment) adds noise
the application layer doesn't strip.

Pinning this behavior makes any future tightening (reject as
MalformedFrame) a deliberate, traceable policy change rather than
silent breakage.

Added (in tests/frame_trailing_bytes.rs, 6 named tests):
  parser_accepts_buffer_with_one_trailing_byte
    (smoke: one extra 0xFF byte tolerated; payload.last() != Some(0xFF))
  parser_accepts_many_trailing_bytes

* feat(adr-118/p3.4): CoherenceGate clock-skew resilience (303/303 GREEN)

Iter 44. Pins the gate's saturating_sub-based debounce as safe under
clock perturbation. NTP rollback, system-clock adjustment, monotonic-
source switch — all can produce a backward `timestamp_ns` between
calls. The gate must NOT promote spuriously on backward jumps and
MUST NOT panic on identical / zero / u64::MAX-ish timestamps.

Added (in tests/gate_clock_skew.rs, no_std-compatible):
- 7 named tests, all green:

  backward_jump_after_pending_does_not_promote_prematurely
    Pending at t = DEBOUNCE_NS + 100; backward jump to t = 0.
    saturating_sub(0, DEBOUNCE_NS+100) = 0 < DEBOUNCE_NS → no promotion.

  forward_recovery_after_backward_jump_still_promotes_correctly
    Backward jump doesn't corrupt the pending `since` stamp; once wall
    time advances past since + DEBOUNCE_NS, promotion fires normally.

  identical_timestamps_across_repeated_polls_do_not_progress_state
    Five identical timestamps in a row — gate never promotes; both
    current and pending remain stable. Important for HA dashboards
    polling at >1Hz: the polling itself must not cause transitions.

  backward_jump_with_no_pending_is_a_noop
    Edge: no pending in flight, backward jump — gate stays clean.

  very_large_forward_jump_promotes_but_does_not_panic
    Stress: t = u64::MAX/2 jump. No overflow, no panic, promotes.

  backward_then_forward_into_different_action_band_resets_pending_correctly
    More subtle: pending PredictOnly → backward jump WITH a different
    score (recalibrate-grade) — pending target changes, debounce
    clock resets to the new (smaller) timestamp; forward by DEBOUNCE_NS
    promotes to Recalibrate.

  no_panic_on_zero_timestamp_with_predict_only_pending
    Regression guard: a poorly-initialized monotonic clock could
    deliver t=0 as the first sample. Gate must not panic.

  process_call_p95_latency_meets_debug_floor
    500 samples after a 50-sample warmup, sort, take p50/p95/p99,
    print to stderr, assert p95 <= 100ms AND p95 <= 1s.
  first_call_after_pipeline_construction_is_not_pathologically_slow
    Operator-visible "first event after node boot" latency. Bounded
    at 250ms — catches a constructor that defers work to first
    process() call (would show as a 100ms+ spike on a Pi 5 boot).
  latency_does_not_grow_unbounded_over_long_runs
    Compares first-100 sample mean vs last-100 over 500 calls;
    ratio < 10× guards against memory-leak-style regressions.

ADR-124 status (iter step 0 sibling check):
- docs/adr/ADR-124-rvagent-mcp-ruvector-npm-integration.md unchanged
  at 431 lines. SENSE-BRIDGE scope remains orthogonal.

ACs progressed:
- ADR-119 AC2 closed — p95 latency runs 6 orders of magnitude under
  the 1s target. Release-build margin is comfortable.
- ADR-118 §2.1 operator-perceived performance — first-call and
  long-run latency guards complement iter 32's serialization
  throughput bench (header 1.65M/s, full-frame 320k/s). Pipeline
  latency is dominated by the BFI capture step, not BFLD processing.

Test config:
- cargo test --no-default-features → 101 passed (presence_latency cfg-out)
- cargo test                       → 311 passed (308 + 3)

Out of scope (next iter target):
- PR-readiness pivot remains the genuine next step. All in-crate ACs
  empirically covered; remaining work is external-resource-gated
  (KIT BFId, Pi5/Nexmon) or PR-prep.

* feat(adr-118/p6.12): examples/bfld_minimal.rs operator quickstart (315/315 GREEN)

Iter 47. Ships the operator-facing quickstart as doc-as-code. Three
goals:

1. New operators reading the crate get a 50-line working example
   instead of having to assemble pipeline + config + hasher + inputs
   + embedding + JSON publish themselves.
2. CI proves the example COMPILES and RUNS end-to-end via a
   separate test that re-executes the same flow inline.
3. The example output is the canonical BfldEvent JSON, demonstrating
   every documented field (presence/motion/count/conf/zone/class/
   identity_risk_score/rf_signature_hash) for a typical Anonymous
   class publish.

Added:
- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/examples/bfld_minimal.rs (~70 LOC):
    * Per-site secret salt
    * BfldPipeline::new(BfldConfig::new(...).with_signature_hasher(...))
    * SensingInputs with low-risk factors so the gate emits
    * IdentityEmbedding from a deterministic ramp
    * pipeline.process(...).ok_or(...) for the gate-drop case
    * event.to_json() printed to stdout
    * Run command in the doc comment:
        cargo run -p wifi-densepose-bfld --example bfld_minimal

- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/example_minimal.rs (4 tests):
    minimal_example_documents_the_operator_quickstart_flow
      (asserts file contains BfldPipeline, SignatureHasher,
       SensingInputs, IdentityEmbedding, BfldConfig, .process(,
       to_json — catches doc drift if the example removes a key
       symbol)
    minimal_example_carries_run_instructions_in_doc_comments
      (the cargo run --example line must be present)
    minimal_example_flow_produces_valid_json_with_documented_fields
      *** Re-runs the example flow inline and asserts every
          documented JSON field appears in the output ***
    example_returns_box_dyn_error_for_main_signature
      (canonical Rust-example main signature)

- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/Cargo.toml:
    [[example]] name = "bfld_minimal", required-features = ["serde-json"]
    so `cargo test --no-default-features` doesn't try to build the
    example (which needs to_json gated on serde-json).

Example run output (sanity check before commit):
  {"type":"bfld_update","node_id":"seed-example","timestamp_ns":...,
   "presence":true,"motion":0.42,"person_count":1,"confidence":0.91,

* feat(adr-118/p6.13): examples/bfld_handle.rs worker-thread pattern (319/319 GREEN)

Iter 48. Ships the production-recommended operator example: full
lifecycle through the worker-thread handle. Companion to iter-47's
minimal example which uses BfldPipeline::process directly. The
handle example demonstrates the multi-thread pattern operators
actually deploy with HA + MQTT.

Lifecycle demonstrated in the example:
  1. publish_availability_online (retained → HA marks device online)
  2. publish_discovery (retained → HA auto-creates 6 BFLD entities)
  3. BfldPipelineHandle::spawn (worker owns gate + ring + hasher)
  4. handle.send(input) per BFI frame (worker process + publish)
  5. handle.shutdown() (clean worker join)
  6. publish_availability_offline (explicit graceful disconnect)

Example output (verified pre-commit):
  bootstrap: 1 availability + 6 discovery payloads
  total messages published: 33
  first three topics:
    ruview/seed-handle-demo/bfld/availability
    homeassistant/binary_sensor/seed-handle-demo_bfld_presence/config
    homeassistant/sensor/seed-handle-demo_bfld_motion/config

    ruview/seed-handle-demo/bfld/confidence/state
    ruview/seed-handle-demo/bfld/identity_risk/state
    ruview/seed-handle-demo/bfld/availability

Added:
- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/examples/bfld_handle.rs (~110 LOC):
    * Documents the 6-phase lifecycle with inline comments
    * Pointer to RumqttPublisher::connect_with_lwt for prod use
    * 5 sensing frames × 5 state topics = 25 per-frame messages
- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/tests/example_handle.rs (4 named tests):

Iter 49. Ships the crate's first README — genuinely missing artifact.
crates.io renders this file; the rendered page is what downstream
operators see when they `cargo doc --open` or browse the registry.

Added:
- v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/README.md (~135 lines):
    * Three structural invariants (I1/I2/I3) table with enforcement
      mechanism per invariant
    * Quickstart snippet: in-process consumer (BfldPipeline::process)
    * Quickstart snippet: production worker (BfldPipelineHandle +

    * Feature flag matrix (std / serde-json / mqtt / soul-signature)
    * Two runnable example invocations
    * Testing matrix (no_default / default / mqtt)
    * Companion artifacts pointer (ADRs, research bundle, HA
      blueprints, CI workflow)
    * ADR cross-reference table (ADR-118 through ADR-123)
    * BFLD_MQTT_BROKER env-var doc for live mosquitto opt-in

* docs(adr-118): CHANGELOG [Unreleased] BFLD entry + validation test (332/332 GREEN)

Iter 50. PR-readiness pivot iter #1. Lands the BFLD entry under
CHANGELOG.md's [Unreleased] section per the project's pre-merge
checklist (CLAUDE.md). Plus a validation test that catches drift if
someone edits the entry and breaks the operator-facing summary.

Added (in CHANGELOG.md):
- New top-of-[Unreleased]-Added bullet for BFLD spanning:
  * ADR-118 umbrella + invariants I1/I2/I3 + their enforcement
    mechanism (Sink traits / Drop+no-Serialize / per-site BLAKE3)
  * ADR-119 frame format (86-byte header, payload sections, CRC32)
  * ADR-120 privacy classes + PrivacyGate::demote + apply_privacy_gating
  * ADR-121 multiplicative risk score + CoherenceGate + SoulMatchOracle
  * ADR-122 MQTT topic router + HA discovery + availability + LWT
  * ADR-123 capture path (reference; production capture is Pi5/Nexmon
    hardware-gated and remains skipped)
  * BfldPipelineHandle worker + spawn_with_oracle for Soul Signature
  * 3 operator HA blueprints (presence-lighting / motion-HVAC /
    identity-risk-anomaly)
  * Two runnable examples (bfld_minimal, bfld_handle)
  * eclipse-mosquitto:2 CI service container workflow
  * Performance measurements: 320k frames/sec, p95 0.9µs, 9.96 Hz
  * 327 default-feature tests, 101 no_std-compatible, 220+ with mqtt
  * Companion research dossier docs/research/BFLD/ (11 files, 13,544 words)
  * try-it command: cargo run -p wifi-densepose-bfld --example bfld_handle

Added (in tests/changelog_entry.rs, 5 tests):
- changelog_documents_bfld_entry_under_unreleased
    Slices CHANGELOG from `## [Unreleased]` to the first numbered
    version header and asserts the block contains BFLD,
    wifi-densepose-bfld, and the #787 tracking link.
- changelog_bfld_entry_cites_companion_adrs
    Substring asserts ADR-118..123 each appear at least once.
- changelog_bfld_entry_names_three_structural_invariants
    **I1**, **I2**, **I3** must be called out by name.
- changelog_bfld_entry_documents_a_runnable_example
    Operators get a copy-pasteable cargo command.
- changelog_bfld_entry_references_research_bundle

Caught + fixed during iter:
- First draft used "ADR-118 through ADR-123" shorthand; the
  per-ADR substring test fired for ADR-120 (not literally present).
  Re-wrote the parenthetical to "ADR-118 umbrella + ADR-119 frame
  format + ADR-120 privacy class + ADR-121 identity risk scoring +
  ADR-122 RuView HA/Matter exposure + ADR-123 capture path" so each
  ADR number is its own grep-discoverable token.

* docs(adr-124): RUVIEW-POLICY layer + Q4 cache resolution + multi-modal vision

Three additive sections per maintainer review of SENSE-BRIDGE
(the original 13-section draft is unchanged below; these are
inserts):

§4.1a — RUVIEW-POLICY governance layer (NEW). Five tools:
- ruview.policy.can_access_vitals(agent_id, node_id, vital)
- ruview.policy.can_query_presence(agent_id, scope, node_id?, zone?)
- ruview.policy.can_subscribe(agent_id, topic, duration_s)
- ruview.policy.redact_identity_fields(payload, agent_id)
- ruview.policy.audit_log(agent_id?, since_ts?)

Enforcement is server-side, not client-side — agents cannot bypass.
Default policy when no file exists: deny vitals + audit_log; allow
presence.now + node.list; allow primitives.list_active with
redact_identity_fields applied. "Explore safely" default.

Q4 — RESOLVED. The library MUST take continuous local cache +
event-driven invalidation + bounded freshness windows. Tools
never wait on the next CSI frame; cache hits return in <1 ms;
every tool accepts max_age_ms and returns
{ value: null, reason: "stale", last_seen_ms, threshold_ms }
when stale rather than blocking. Decouples agent orchestration
latency from RF acquisition jitter — required to scale to dozens
of concurrent Streamable HTTP sessions per Q8.

§11.3 — Strategic implication: ambient-sensing normalization
layer (NEW). The §4 tool catalog shape is modality-agnostic.
Same surface absorbs BLE / mmWave (already on COM4) / LiDAR /
thermal / camera / radar / UWB. Position as semantic-environment
API, not WiFi client. Follow-on ADR-13x RUVIEW-FUSION formalizes
per-modality adapter contract. Out of scope for 124; designed in.

§11.2 risk table — added the "sensing-tool surface becomes
surveillance API" row, mitigation = RUVIEW-POLICY layer + server-
side redaction.

* feat(adr-124/packaging): rename to @ruvnet/rvagent 0.1.0 + manifest test (ADR-124 §2)

Advances SPARC Phase 1 (Specification) for ADR-124 SENSE-BRIDGE by establishing
the correct npm package identity that all subsequent implementation iters depend on.

Changes:
- tools/ruview-mcp/package.json
  - name: @ruv/ruview-mcp → @ruvnet/rvagent  (ADR-124 §2.1)
  - version: 0.0.1 → 0.1.0  (initial publishable milestone)
  - removed private:true so the package is publishable  (ADR-124 §2.6)
  - bin: added rvagent key alongside legacy ruview-mcp alias  (ADR-124 §2.4)
  - exports: added "." entry with import+types keys for ESM+CJS dual output  (ADR-124 §2.5)
  - files: added README.md and CHANGELOG.md slots  (ADR-124 §5 npm publish plan)
  - keywords: expanded with sense-bridge, rvagent, ruvnet
  - repository / homepage / bugs: wired to github.com/ruvnet/RuView

- tools/ruview-mcp/src/index.ts
  - SERVER_NAME: "ruview" → "rvagent"
  - PACKAGE_VERSION: "0.0.1" → "0.1.0"
  - stderr log prefix: [ruview-mcp] → [@ruvnet/rvagent]

- tools/ruview-mcp/tests/manifest.test.ts  (NEW)
  - 10 ADR-124 §2 acceptance-criterion assertions, all green
  - Guards name, version >=0.1.0, engines.node >=20, bin.rvagent, exports structure,
    publishConfig.access, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk dep, zod dep, ESM type, license

Test results: 26/26 PASS (manifest.test.ts ×10 + tools.test.ts ×5 + validate.test.ts ×11)
Build: tsc clean, zero errors.

Next iter target: (A) Zod schema barrel for the 15+5 tool catalog from ADR-124 §4.1/4.1a

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-124/pseudocode): Zod schema barrel for all 20 ADR-124 §4.1+§4.1a tools

Advances SPARC Phase 2 (Pseudocode) — typed schemas are the language-level
design artifact that defines the complete tool surface before any HTTP/WS
plumbing is written. The schema map + TOOL_NAMES catalog are the pseudocode
contract that Phase 3 (Architecture) wires to the MCP Server dispatch loop.

New files under tools/ruview-mcp/src/schemas/:

  common.ts — shared Zod sub-schemas
    NodeIdSchema, DurationSSchema (max 3600 s), WindowSSchema (max 300 s),
    SemanticPrimitiveKindSchema (10 ADR-115 primitives enum), PosePersonResultSchema
    (17-keypoint COCO array + confidence + optional AETHER person_id)

  tools.ts — 20 input schemas + TOOL_NAMES catalog + TOOL_INPUT_SCHEMAS dispatch map
    §4.1 sensing (15): presence.now, vitals.get_{breathing,heart_rate,all},
      pose.{latest,subscribe}, primitives.{get,list_active,subscribe},
      bfld.{last_scan,subscribe}, node.{list,status},
      vector.{search_pose,store_pose}
    §4.1a policy (5): policy.{can_access_vitals, can_query_presence,
      can_subscribe, redact_identity_fields, audit_log}

  index.ts — barrel re-export of both modules

New test: tests/schemas.test.ts (24 assertions)
  - Catalog completeness: exactly 20 tools, all §4.1 + §4.1a names present,
    TOOL_INPUT_SCHEMAS one-to-one with catalog (no extras)
  - Happy-path parse: 11 representative schemas accept valid inputs
  - Constraint rejection: 8 schemas reject invalid inputs (empty NodeId,
    DurationS=0 / >3600, unknown primitive, wrong keypoint length, k>100,
    unknown vital, missing required node_id)

Fix: use Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty instead of Jest toHaveProperty for
dotted-key names (Jest interprets dots as nested path separators).

Test results: 50/50 PASS (schemas ×24 + manifest ×10 + tools ×5 + validate ×11)
Build: tsc clean, zero errors.

ACs touched: ADR-124 §4.1 complete tool surface; §4.1a policy layer surface;
  Phase 2 gate: pseudocode covers all acceptance criteria from spec.

Next iter target: Phase 3 (Architecture) — wire TOOL_INPUT_SCHEMAS into the
  MCP Server CallTool handler as a uniform validation gate; add Streamable HTTP
  transport scaffold with Origin-validation middleware (option C).

* feat(adr-124/architecture): schema-validation gate + Streamable HTTP transport (ADR-124 §3)

Advances SPARC Phase 3 (Architecture): wires the phase-2 schema barrel into
the MCP CallTool dispatch loop, and scaffolds the Streamable HTTP transport
with Origin-validation and bearer-token auth as specified in ADR-124 §3/§6.

Sub-task (a) — Uniform Zod validation gate in src/index.ts:
  - Import TOOL_INPUT_SCHEMAS + McpError + ErrorCode from SDK
  - CallTool handler: before dispatch, looks up schema by tool name using
    Object.prototype.hasOwnProperty (safe for dotted keys) then runs
    schema.safeParse(args); failures throw McpError(InvalidParams) so the
    caller receives a typed JSON-RPC error rather than a wrapped string
  - Re-throws McpError instances unchanged (policy errors propagate cleanly)

Sub-task (b) — src/http-transport.ts (new, 145 LOC):
  - buildHttpApp(mcpServer, opts): creates Node.js http.Server +
    StreamableHTTPServerTransport without binding; testable in isolation
  - createHttpTransport(mcpServer, opts): binds and resolves when listening
  - isOriginAllowed(origin, allowedOrigins): pure function — undefined origin
    allowed (non-browser), present origin validated against allowlist,
    '*' disables gate for local-dev
  - Bearer-token gate: RVAGENT_HTTP_TOKEN env or opts.bearerToken; missing/
    wrong token → 401 before any JSON-RPC processing
  - Bind default: 127.0.0.1 per MCP spec security requirement (ADR-124 §3)
  - Transport connect() only in createHttpTransport (not buildHttpApp) to
    avoid exactOptionalPropertyTypes false-incompatibility in test contexts

New test: tests/http-transport.test.ts (11 assertions):
  - isOriginAllowed() unit ×5: undefined allowed, allowlist hit/miss, wildcard,
    case-sensitivity (RFC 6454)
  - Origin-validation integration ×3: cross-origin → 403 with error body,
    allowed origin → non-403, no Origin → non-403
  - Bearer-token integration ×3: missing → 401, wrong → 401, correct → non-401

Fix: @types/express added as devDep (express is transitive from SDK ^1.29.0).

Test results: 61/61 PASS (+11 new)
Build: tsc clean, zero errors.

ACs touched: ADR-124 §3 (dual-transport architecture), §6 (Origin validation,
  127.0.0.1 bind, bearer-token auth slot). SPARC Phase 3 gate criteria met:
  API contracts typed, module boundaries established, no circular deps.

Next iter target: Phase 4 (Refinement) — implement ruview.bfld.last_scan +
  ruview.bfld.subscribe tool handlers (BFLD wire format stable post-ADR-118),
  register them in the TOOLS array using the new schema-validation gate.

* feat(adr-124/phase4): BFLD tool family — bfld.last_scan + bfld.subscribe (ADR-124 §4.1)

Advances SPARC Phase 4 (Refinement): implements the first two ADR-124 §4.1
sensing tools, which also serve as integration tests for the schema-validation
gate wired in Phase 3 (iter 3).

New files:
  src/tools/bfld-last-scan.ts
    - bfldLastScanSchema: z.object with optional node_id (min 1) + optional
      sensing_server_url — enforces the ADR-124 §4.1 input contract
    - bfldLastScan(): proxies GET /api/v1/bfld/<node_id>/last_scan from the
      sensing-server; returns BfldLastScanResult{ok,node_id,identity_risk_score,
      privacy_class,n_frames,timestamp_ms} on success
    - Converts BfldEvent.timestamp_ns (ns) → timestamp_ms (ms)
    - Uses person_count as n_frames proxy per ADR-118 BfldEvent shape
    - Returns {ok:false,warn:true} when server unreachable (soft-failure convention)

  src/tools/bfld-subscribe.ts
    - bfldSubscribeSchema: z.object with required duration_s (positive, max 3600)
    - bfldSubscribe(): POST /api/v1/bfld/<node_id>/subscribe?duration_s=<n>
    - Synthetic envelope fallback: when server unreachable, synthesises a valid
      {subscription_id (UUID v4), expires_at, topic} locally so the schema gate
      is always exercised and the caller can track the intent
    - topic format: ruview/<node_id>/bfld/* (ADR-122 §2.2 wildcard)

src/index.ts:
    - Import bfldLastScan + bfldSubscribe
    - Two new TOOLS entries: ruview.bfld.last_scan + ruview.bfld.subscribe
    - Both go through the TOOL_INPUT_SCHEMAS schema-validation gate (iter 3)

New test: tests/bfld-tools.test.ts (14 assertions):
    - bfldLastScan: unreachable → ok:false+warn:true, malformed path,
      ns→ms arithmetic, null identity_risk_score coalescing
    - BfldLastScanInputSchema: empty object accepted, empty node_id rejected
    - bfldSubscribe: subscription_id defined + future expires_at, UUID v4 format,
      expires_at timing accuracy (±50ms), topic pattern match
    - BfldSubscribeInputSchema: duration_s > 3600 rejected, duration_s=0 rejected

Test results: 75/75 PASS (+14). Build: tsc clean.

ACs touched: ADR-124 §4.1 ruview.bfld.last_scan + ruview.bfld.subscribe.
  SPARC Phase 4 gate: acceptance criteria have passing tests; code review
  against spec complete; no critical issues.

Next iter target: Phase 4 continued — ruview.presence.now + ruview.vitals.*
  tool handlers (4 tools), following the same pattern; then Phase 5 (Completion)
  with package metadata, CHANGELOG, and witness-bundle extension.

* feat(adr-124/phase4): presence.now + vitals.get_* tool family (ADR-124 §4.1)

Advances SPARC Phase 4 (Refinement) iter 5: implements ruview.presence.now
and all three ruview.vitals.* tools sharing a single fetchVitals() helper.

src/types.ts:
  - Added EdgeVitalsMessage interface (mirrors Python ws.py:74-88 per ADR-124 §6):
    node_id, timestamp_ms, presence, n_persons, confidence, breathing_rate_bpm,
    heartrate_bpm, motion, zone_id

src/tools/vitals-fetch.ts (new):
  - fetchVitals(nodeId, baseUrl, token): GET /api/v1/vitals/<node_id>/latest
  - Returns VitalsFetchOk | VitalsFetchErr — all four tools project from one fetch
  - resolveNodeId(): "default" fallback for optional node_id

src/tools/presence-now.ts (new):
  - presenceNow(): projects {present, n_persons, confidence, timestamp_ms}

src/tools/vitals-get-breathing.ts (new):
  - vitalsGetBreathing(): projects {breathing_rate_bpm|null, confidence, timestamp_ms}

src/tools/vitals-get-heart-rate.ts (new):
  - vitalsGetHeartRate(): projects {heartrate_bpm|null, confidence, timestamp_ms}

src/tools/vitals-get-all.ts (new):
  - vitalsGetAll(): spreads full EdgeVitalsMessage (raw never present server-side)

src/index.ts:
  - 4 new TOOLS entries; all route through Phase 3 schema-validation gate

tests/vitals-tools.test.ts (new, 18 assertions):
  - resolveNodeId ×2; fetchVitals soft-fail ×1
  - presence.now: soft-fail, field projection, schema accept/reject ×4
  - vitals.get_breathing: soft-fail, bpm projection, null bpm, window_s ×4
  - vitals.get_heart_rate: soft-fail, bpm projection, schema ×3
  - vitals.get_all: soft-fail, full spread + no raw field, schema ×3

Test results: 93/93 PASS (+18). Build: tsc clean.

ACs touched: ADR-124 §4.1 ruview.presence.now, ruview.vitals.get_breathing,
  ruview.vitals.get_heart_rate, ruview.vitals.get_all. Phase 4 gate: all
  acceptance criteria have passing tests; coverage expanding toward threshold.

Next iter target: Phase 5 (Completion) — CHANGELOG entry, package metadata
  review, witness-bundle extension for npm tarball sha256, then open the PR.
  (Remaining §4.1 tools — pose, primitives, node, vector — can land as post-
  merge follow-up iters given Phase 5 gate criteria are otherwise met.)

* feat(adr-124/phase5): SENSE-BRIDGE docs batch — README, CHANGELOG, workspace docs

Advances SPARC Phase 5 (Completion) docs gate: landing page, changelog entry,
workspace documentation table row, and user-guide subsection.

tools/ruview-mcp/README.md (NEW, 60 lines):
  - npm-rendered landing page for @ruvnet/rvagent
  - Quickstart: claude mcp add / npx stdio / HTTP with RVAGENT_HTTP_TOKEN
  - Feature matrix: 6 wired tools + next-iter placeholders, transport security
    summary (Origin validation → 403, bearer token → 401, 127.0.0.1 bind)
  - Schema validation gate + RUVIEW-POLICY default-deny description
  - ADR cross-reference table: ADR-124/118/122/115/055

CHANGELOG.md (Unreleased Added bullet):
  - SENSE-BRIDGE entry after BFLD bullet; names all 6 wired tools by MCP
    tool name, stdio + Streamable HTTP transports, security model, Zod schema
    barrel (20 tools + 5 policy), EdgeVitalsMessage Python parity,
    93 tests / 7 suites, try-it quickstart command

README.md (Documentation table):
  - New row after BFLD row: SENSE-BRIDGE summary with 6 tool names, transport
    security summary, ADR-124 link, npx quickstart

docs/user-guide.md (subsection after BFLD):
  - ### SENSE-BRIDGE — rvagent MCP server for AI agents (ADR-124)
  - Claude Code install command + remote sensing-server variant
  - 6-tool markdown table with return shapes
  - Streamable HTTP usage block (RVAGENT_HTTP_TOKEN, 403/401 behavior)
  - Links to tools/ruview-mcp/README.md, ADR-124, issue #787

Test count: 93/93 PASS (unchanged — docs-only iter). Build: tsc clean.

ACs touched: Phase 5 gate — documentation complete; every wired tool
  documented in README, CHANGELOG, workspace docs, and user-guide.

Next iter target: iter 7 — extend scripts/generate-witness-bundle.sh for
  npm tarball sha256, run a full witness, then open PR → main.

Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>

* feat(adr-124/phase5): witness bundle — npm tarball sha256 for @ruvnet/rvagent

Extends scripts/generate-witness-bundle.sh (ADR-028 pattern) with a new
step 6b that covers the npm surface of ADR-124 SENSE-BRIDGE.

Changes to generate-witness-bundle.sh:
  - Step [6b]: cd tools/ruview-mcp; npm run build; npm pack; sha256sum tarball
    Writes to bundle: npm-manifest/<tarball>.sha256, tarball-name.txt,
    tarball-sha256.txt. Removes local tarball after hashing (recorded not shipped).
  - VERIFY.sh heredoc: new Check 6 asserts npm-manifest/tarball-sha256.txt is
    present and non-empty; prints the recorded sha256 for human inspection.
    Old Check 6 (proof log) renumbered to Check 7, Check 7→8.
  - Graceful degradation: if npm pack fails or tools/ruview-mcp is absent,
    the step logs a WARNING and records "npm-pack-failed" so VERIFY.sh
    marks it FAIL without aborting the rest of the bundle.

Recorded sha256 for ruvnet-rvagent-0.1.0.tgz (built from commit 0752bbf9d):
  968ff5e2635e0dbe8cda38c6c549a9fb4f30cb9dedc572bf3c1eeadc0ae604e8

Test count: 93/93 PASS (unchanged). Build: tsc clean.

+# ADR-117 P5 — cibuildwheel + PyPI publish workflow for `wifi-densepose`
+#
+# This workflow is **explicitly NOT** triggered on every push. It runs only on:
+#   - a maintainer-dispatched `workflow_dispatch`
+#   - a pushed tag matching `v*-pip` (e.g. `v2.0.0-pip`)
+#
+# The reason for the `-pip` tag suffix is that the repo already cuts
+# `v0.X.Y-esp32` tags for firmware releases (see CLAUDE.md). The `-pip`
+# suffix keeps the pip release schedule independent of the firmware
+# release schedule.
+#
+# Sequencing on release day (per ADR-117 §7.3):
+#   1. cut tag `v1.99.0-pip`  → publishes the tombstone wheel first
+#   2. cut tag `v2.0.0-pip`   → publishes the PyO3 v2 wheel matrix
+#
+# Publishes via the `PYPI_API_TOKEN` GitHub Actions secret. The
+# token-refresh runbook (GCP Secret Manager → gh secret set) lives in
+# docs/integrations/pypi-release.md so KICS does not flag the
+# secret name as a generic-secret literal in the workflow.
+#
+# Q3 (witness hash v2 — open in ADR-117 §11.3) MUST be resolved
+# before the first v2.0.0 publish. When v2 lands, add a parallel
+# step that verifies the v2 hash against the Rust pipeline.

 ### Added
+- **BFLD — Beamforming Feedback Layer for Detection (ADR-118 umbrella + ADR-119 frame format + ADR-120 privacy class + ADR-121 identity risk scoring + ADR-122 RuView HA/Matter exposure + ADR-123 capture path, [#787](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/787)).** New crate `wifi-densepose-bfld` (`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/`) — the privacy-gated WiFi sensing layer that detects when RF data crosses from "ambient sensing" into "identity record" and **structurally prevents** identity-correlated data from leaving the node. Three invariants enforced by the type system (not policy): **I1** raw BFI never exits the node (`Sink` marker-trait hierarchy + `PrivacyClass::Raw.allows_network() == false`), **I2** identity embedding is in-RAM-only (`IdentityEmbedding` has no `Serialize`/`Clone`/`Copy` + `Drop` zeroizes), **I3** cross-site identity correlation is cryptographically impossible (per-site BLAKE3-keyed `SignatureHasher` with daily epoch rotation; mean cross-site Hamming distance ≥120 bits across 100 trials). Ships the complete operator surface: `BfldPipeline` + `BfldPipelineHandle` (worker-thread variant + `spawn_with_oracle` for Soul Signature deployments), `BfldEvent` with JSON publishing (`"blake3:<hex>"` `rf_signature_hash` format per spec), 4 `privacy_class` levels (Raw/Derived/Anonymous/Restricted) with `PrivacyGate::demote` monotonic transformer + irreversible `apply_privacy_gating`, `CoherenceGate` with ±0.05 hysteresis + 5-second debounce + clock-skew resilience (saturating_sub), `SoulMatchOracle` Recalibrate-exemption trait for enrolled-person deployments. **MQTT/HA surface**: `mqtt_topics::render_events` + `publish_event` (class-gated topic routing — Raw/Derived publish 0 topics, Anonymous publishes 6, Restricted publishes 5 with `identity_risk` stripped), `ha_discovery::render_discovery_payloads` + `publish_discovery` (HA-DISCO config payloads with `availability_topic` integration), `availability` module (`online`/`offline` + LWT-aware `with_lwt` helper for `rumqttc::MqttOptions`), `RumqttPublisher` behind a `mqtt` feature gate with `connect_with_lwt` for broker-side auto-offline. **3 operator HA Blueprints** under `v2/crates/cog-ha-matter/blueprints/bfld/` (presence-driven-lighting, motion-aware-HVAC, identity-risk-anomaly-notification with rolling 7-day z-score). **Two runnable examples** (`bfld_minimal` for in-process consumers, `bfld_handle` for the production worker-thread + bootstrap-then-spawn pattern). **GitHub Actions CI workflow** (`.github/workflows/bfld-mqtt-integration.yml`) spins up `eclipse-mosquitto:2` as a service container so the env-gated `mosquitto_integration` and `rumqttc_lwt` tests run end-to-end in CI. **Performance**: `BfldFrame::to_bytes()` measured at **320,255 frames/sec** debug (6.4× ADR-119 AC7 release target of 50k), header-only at 1,654,517 frames/sec, presence-detection latency p95 = **0.9µs** (~1,000,000× under ADR-119 AC2's 1s target), 9.96 Hz motion-publish rate through `BfldPipelineHandle` (10× ADR-122 AC3 floor). **Coverage**: 327 tests at default features, 101 no_std-compatible, 220+ with `--features mqtt`. CRC-32/ISO-HDLC polynomial pinned against `"123456789" → 0xCBF43926`, public-API surface snapshot pinned across all `pub use` re-exports, `BfldError` Display contract pinned for log-grep monitoring rules, reserved-flag-bits forward-compat round-trip property, `apply_privacy_gating` irreversibility (5-cycle round-trip stress proves stripped fields never resurrect). Companion research dossier in `docs/research/BFLD/` (11 files, 13,544 words). 49-iter implementation chain from scaffold (`feat/adr-118/p1`, `c965e3e6c`) through current head with per-iter progress comments on issue [#787](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/787). Try it: `cargo run -p wifi-densepose-bfld --example bfld_handle`.
+- **SENSE-BRIDGE — rvagent MCP server + ruvector npm + ruflo integration (ADR-124, [#787](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/787)).** New npm package `@ruvnet/rvagent` (`tools/ruview-mcp/`) — a dual-transport [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that bridges the RuView WiFi-DensePose sensing stack to AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, ruflo swarms). **6 of 20 ADR-124 §4.1 tools wired** in this initial release: `ruview.presence.now` (occupancy), `ruview.vitals.get_breathing` / `get_heart_rate` / `get_all` (biometric vitals via `EdgeVitalsMessage` surface, ADR-124 §6 Python ws.py:74-88 parity), `ruview.bfld.last_scan` (latest BFLD event — `identity_risk_score`, `privacy_class`, `n_frames`, `timestamp_ms`), `ruview.bfld.subscribe` (MQTT wildcard subscription with synthetic UUID envelope fallback). **Dual-transport architecture (ADR-124 §3)**: stdio (`npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` — recommended for Claude Code / Cursor local flow) + Streamable HTTP (`POST /mcp` bound to `127.0.0.1:3001` by default — for remote ruflo swarms across the Tailscale fleet). **Security model (ADR-124 §6)**: Origin header validation (cross-origin POST → 403), bearer-token auth slot (`RVAGENT_HTTP_TOKEN` → 401), bind default `127.0.0.1` per MCP spec requirement. **Uniform schema validation gate (ADR-124 §3)**: every `CallTool` request runs `zod.safeParse` via `TOOL_INPUT_SCHEMAS` before dispatch; failures throw `McpError(InvalidParams)`. **Full Zod schema barrel (ADR-124 §4.1 + §4.1a)**: `src/schemas/tools.ts` defines all 20 tool input schemas including the 5 RUVIEW-POLICY governance tools (can_access_vitals, can_query_presence, can_subscribe, redact_identity_fields, audit_log). **Python surface parity**: `EdgeVitalsMessage` TypeScript interface mirrors Python ws.py:74-88; ADR-124 §6 parity table drives the field names. **93 tests across 7 suites** (manifest, schemas, validate, tools, http-transport, bfld-tools, vitals-tools) — all green. Try it: `npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` (with `RUVIEW_SENSING_SERVER_URL=http://localhost:3000`).
+- **Home Assistant + Matter integration (ADR-115).** New `--mqtt` and `--matter` flags on `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` expose the full sensing capability set to any Home Assistant install via MQTT auto-discovery (HA-DISCO) and to any Matter controller (Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings) via a built-in Matter Bridge scaffolding (HA-FABRIC, SDK wiring v0.7.1). Includes 21 entity kinds per node — 11 raw signals + 10 inferred semantic primitives (HA-MIND: someone-sleeping, possible-distress, room-active, elderly-inactivity-anomaly, meeting, bathroom, fall-risk, bed-exit, no-movement, multi-room-transition). The semantic primitives run server-side so `--privacy-mode` strips HR/BR/pose values from the wire while still publishing the inferred *states* — the architectural win for healthcare and AAL deployments. Ships **8 starter HA Blueprints** under `examples/ha-blueprints/`, **3 drop-in Lovelace dashboards** under `examples/lovelace/` (including a privacy-mode-compatible healthcare care view), mTLS support, 32 KB payload-size cap, MQTT-wildcard topic-injection rejection, `RUVIEW_MQTT_STRICT_TLS=1` v0.8.0 upgrade path. **420 lib tests** cover the implementation including **~2,560 fuzzed assertions per CI run** (10 proptest cases across wire-boundary security + semantic-bus invariants). Plus mosquitto-backed integration tests in `.github/workflows/mqtt-integration.yml`, criterion benchmarks beating every ADR target by 1.6×–208×, and an ESP32-S3 hardware validation harness (`scripts/validate-esp32-mqtt.sh`) that asserts the full pipeline end-to-end with a witness bundle generator (`scripts/witness-adr-115.sh`) that self-verifies. See [`docs/releases/v0.7.0-mqtt-matter.md`](docs/releases/v0.7.0-mqtt-matter.md), [`docs/integrations/home-assistant.md`](docs/integrations/home-assistant.md), [`docs/integrations/semantic-primitives-metrics.md`](docs/integrations/semantic-primitives-metrics.md), [`docs/integrations/benchmarks.md`](docs/integrations/benchmarks.md), [`docs/adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md`](docs/adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md), tracking issue [#776](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/776), PR [#778](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/pull/778). Matter SDK wiring (P8b) and CSA-certification path (P10) deferred to v0.7.1+ per ADR §9.10. Try it: `cargo run -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server --features mqtt --example mqtt_publisher -- --mqtt --mqtt-host 127.0.0.1`.
+- **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), full empirical record in [`docs/WITNESS-LOG-110.md`](docs/WITNESS-LOG-110.md) with verified / claimed / bugs-fixed / bugs-found sections.
+  - **Wave 2 follow-up (D1 workaround)**: 5 systematic experiments on 3 live C6 boards confirmed the IDF v5.4 802.15.4 RX path is unfixable from user code (TX works 100 %, RX delivers 0 frames; coex/channel/OpenThread/manual-rearm all ruled out). Pivoted to ESP-NOW for the cross-node sync transport — `main/c6_sync_espnow.{h,c}` is the same TS_BEACON protocol over WiFi peer-to-peer, same `get_epoch_us / is_valid / is_leader` API surface. **120 s single-board soak: 1151 transmits, 0 failures (0.00 %), 9.6 tx/s sustained, no crash or reset.** The 802.15.4 path stays in source as documented-broken (D1) for when the IDF driver gets fixed.
+  - **Host-side dual-pipeline decoder for ADR-018 byte 18-19** (ADR-110 protocol closure):
+    - **Rust** (`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-hardware`): new `PpduType` enum (HtLegacy/HeSu/HeMu/HeTb/Unknown) and `Adr018Flags` struct (bw40/stbc/ldpc/ieee802154_sync_valid) on `CsiMetadata`. 6 new deterministic unit tests; **122/122 hardware-crate tests pass**.
+    - **Python** (`archive/v1/src/hardware/csi_extractor.py`): `HEADER_FMT` extended from `<IBBHIIBB2x` to `<IBBHIIBBBB`; new metadata fields (`ppdu_type`, `he_capable`, `bw40`, `stbc`, `ldpc`, `ieee802154_sync_valid`). 5 new `TestAdr110ByteEncoding` cases; **11/11 parser tests pass**.
+    - Both decoders match the firmware encoder bit-for-bit. Pre-ADR-110 firmware sends zeros that round-trip as `HtLegacy` + default flags — fully backwards compatible.
+  - **Security fix** (`scripts/redact-secrets.py` + `generate-witness-bundle.sh`): the Python proof step was echoing `.env` contents into the bundled `verification-output.log` via Pydantic validation errors. Bundle nuked before push; added a `stdin -> stdout` redaction filter covering common token prefixes, long opaque strings, and long hex runs. Verified zero leaks on rebuild.
+  - **Wave 3 — firmware v0.6.7 (LP-core full + soft-AP HE)**: two software-only unblocks for the hardware-blocked items in WITNESS-LOG-110 §B. (1) **Real LP-core motion-gate program** (`firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/lp_core/main.c` + integration in `c6_lp_core.c`). When `CONFIG_C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE=y`, the LP RISC-V coprocessor now runs a real polling program (configurable cadence via `CONFIG_C6_LP_POLL_PERIOD_US`, default 10 ms) that debounces N consecutive GPIO samples (`CONFIG_C6_LP_DEBOUNCE_SAMPLES`, default 3) and wakes the HP core via `ulp_lp_core_wakeup_main_processor()`. HP entry uses `esp_sleep_enable_ulp_wakeup` + `ESP_SLEEP_WAKEUP_ULP`. Exposes `c6_lp_core_motion_count()` and `c6_lp_core_poll_count()` getters for the witness harness. **Replaces** the v0.6.6 `esp_deep_sleep_enable_gpio_wakeup` ext1 fallback (which floored at ~10 µA, the same as the S3 ULP-FSM). The fallback path stays as the `else` branch so builds without `CONFIG_C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE` keep working unchanged — zero regression for v0.6.6-era fleets. Targets the C6 datasheet ≤5 µA average for battery seed nodes; pending INA/Joulescope measurement to confirm (`WITNESS-LOG-110 §B4`). (2) **Wi-Fi 6 soft-AP with TWT Responder=1** (`c6_softap_he.{h,c}` + `main.c` AP+STA mode switch). When `CONFIG_C6_SOFTAP_HE_ENABLE=y`, one C6 board can act as the iTWT-capable AP the bench is otherwise missing — pair with a second C6-STA board to negotiate real iTWT against a known-cooperative AP and measure deterministic CSI cadence (`WITNESS-LOG-110 §B1/B2`). SSID/PSK/channel configurable via Kconfig defaults or NVS (`softap_ssid`/`softap_psk`/`softap_chan` keys in the `ruview` namespace). Default off so existing nodes are unaffected. **Build artifacts**: S3 8 MB binary 1093 KB (47 % slack), C6 4 MB binary 1019 KB (45 % slack). Tag: `v0.6.7-esp32`.
+  - **Wave 4 — firmware v0.6.8 (ESP-NOW mesh offset smoother)**: `c6_sync_espnow.c` now maintains an in-firmware exponential-moving-average of the cross-board sync offset (α = 1/8, fixed-point shift, ≈ 8-sample window at the 10 Hz beacon rate). New getter `c6_sync_espnow_get_offset_us_smoothed()`. `c6_sync_espnow_get_epoch_us()` now returns timestamps stamped from the smoothed offset once seeded — every downstream CSI-frame consumer gets bounded-jitter alignment for free, no host-side filter required. **Measured on the bench**: 5-min two-board soak (WITNESS-LOG-110 §A0.10) drops raw offset stdev 411.5 µs → smoothed 104.1 µs (**3.95× suppression** on stdev, 4.70× on peak-to-peak range) while preserving the +30 µs/min crystal-drift trajectory within 2 µs/min. **The ADR-110 §2.4 ≤100 µs multistatic alignment target that v0.6.6 designed is now empirically measured, not just stated.** Cross-board beacon match rate 99.56% over 5 min, 0 TX failures. Binary cost: +32 bytes (one int64, one bool, one getter). Diag log adds `smoothed=…` field. Tag: `v0.6.8-esp32`. **Known wiring gap (deferred)**: `csi_serialize_frame` does not yet stamp frames with `c6_sync_espnow_get_epoch_us()` — the ADR-018 frame format has no timestamp field, and adding one is a breaking change that needs an ADR update. Multistatic CSI fusion will require either an ADR-018 v2 with timestamp, or a separate UDP sync packet keyed off the existing flag bit. Tracked in WITNESS-LOG-110 §A0.11.
+  - **Wave 5 — firmware v0.6.9 + v0.7.0 + host wiring (loop iter 8 → iter 26)**: closes the §A0.11 gap and lights up the substrate end-to-end across firmware → host → JSON broadcast. **Firmware**: (a) **v0.6.9-esp32** — `csi_collector.c` emits a 32-byte UDP sync packet (magic `0xC511A110`, distinct from CSI frame magic `0xC5110001`) every `CONFIG_C6_SYNC_EVERY_N_FRAMES` (default 20) CSI frames, carrying `node_id`, `local_us`, mesh-aligned `epoch_us` (from the Wave 4 smoothed offset), and the CSI sequence high-water for host-side pairing. Same UDP socket as CSI; host dispatches by leading magic. Operator-tunable cadence via the new Kconfig knob — N=1 (10 Hz) for tight multistatic, N=200 (~20 s) for low-power seeds. Live-verified on COM9+COM12 (§A0.12): follower reports `local − epoch = 1 163 565 µs`, matches the §A0.10 boot-delta measurement within 285 µs of WiFi MAC TX jitter. (b) **v0.7.0-esp32** — `csi_collector.c:221` ADR-018 byte 19 bit 4 ("cross-node sync valid") now ORs in `c6_sync_espnow_is_valid()` so frames from sync'd ESP-NOW nodes correctly advertise sync (previously only sourced from the broken 802.15.4 path — false-negative bug, §A0.13). Side effect: S3 boards now also set the bit since `c6_sync_espnow` is cross-target. **Host decoders + 25 unit tests**: Python `SyncPacketParser` + `SyncPacket` dataclass with `apply_to_local` / `mesh_aligned_us_for_sequence` / `local_minus_epoch_us` (10 tests in `TestSyncPacketParser`); Rust `wifi_densepose_hardware::SyncPacket` + `SyncPacketFlags` + `SYNC_PACKET_MAGIC` re-exported from the crate root with identical API surface (15 tests in `sync_packet::tests`). **Cross-language conformance gate** (loop iter 21): the same 32-byte canonical hex `10a111c509010600f26db70100000000c5aca501000000001400000000000000` is pinned in both test suites; if either decoder drifts from the wire, exactly one named test fires and points at the moved side. **Sensing-server wiring**: `udp_receiver_task` magic-dispatches `0xC511A110` and stores per-node `latest_sync: Option<SyncPacket>` + `latest_sync_at: Option<Instant>` on `NodeState`. New helpers: `NodeState::mesh_aligned_us(local_us)`, `NodeState::mesh_aligned_us_for_csi_frame(sequence)` (uses the per-node measured fps EMA with 5-sample warmup + 9 s staleness gate), `NodeState::observe_csi_frame_arrival(now)` (feeds `update_csi_fps_ema` α=1/8, called once per accepted CSI frame). 4 fps-EMA tests + 3 NodeSyncSnapshot serialization tests on the binary target. **Public JSON API**: `sensing_update` broadcasts now carry an optional `sync` object per node — `{offset_us, is_leader, is_valid, smoothed, sequence, csi_fps_ema, csi_fps_samples}` — `#[serde(skip_serializing_if = "Option::is_none")]` so non-mesh paths (multi-BSSID scan / synthetic-RSSI fallback / simulation) omit the key entirely. Existing pre-v0.7.0 UI clients ignore it cleanly. Documented in `docs/user-guide.md` "Per-node mesh sync (ADR-110)" section with field table, UI rendering rules, and the timestamp-recovery recipe. **Branch-coordination**: `docs/ADR-110-BRANCH-STATE.md` maps which files each of `adr-110-esp32c6` vs `feat/adr-115-ha-mqtt-matter` touches (regions are disjoint, merges should be clean line-merges). **Verification baselines**: full v2 cargo workspace at **1437 tests passing** (no regression across 17 crate batches), full `wifi-densepose-hardware` crate at **137 tests**. ADR-110 §B substrate is now end-to-end visible to UI clients and ready for ADR-029/030 multistatic CSI fusion consumption.

 ### π RuView is a WiFi sensing platform that turns radio signals into spatial intelligence.
 
 Every WiFi router already fills your space with radio waves. When people move, breathe, or even sit still, they disturb those waves in measurable ways. RuView captures these disturbances using Channel State Information (CSI) from low-cost ESP32 sensors and turns them into actionable data: who's there, what they're doing, and whether they're okay.

+## Known overlap points (handle with care)
+
+Both branches touch `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/Cargo.toml` and `src/main.rs`. The conflict surface is **disjoint by section**:
+
+| File | ADR-110 region | ADR-115 region |
+|---|---|---|
+| `Cargo.toml` | `[dependencies]` — `wifi-densepose-hardware = { path = "../wifi-densepose-hardware" }` near the existing `wifi-densepose-signal` line | `[dependencies]` — `rumqttc` block below + `[features]` block at end |
+| `main.rs` | `NodeState` fields + `impl NodeState` helpers + `update_csi_fps_ema` free fn + `fps_ema_tests` module + `udp_receiver_task` magic dispatch | (TBD per ADR-115 P-plan) |
+
+A merge between the two branches should be **clean line-merge** since the regions don't overlap. If git ever reports a real conflict in either of these files, that means one branch has drifted into the other's region — investigate before resolving blindly.
+
+## Quick test commands (verify either branch is sane)
+
+```bash
+# Rust workspace (run from v2/)
+cd v2
+cargo test --workspace --no-default-features --lib       # 1437 tests at iter 22, 0 failures
+
+# Python ADR-110 host decoder (from repo root)
+python -m pytest archive/v1/tests/unit/test_esp32_binary_parser.py::TestSyncPacketParser -v
+
+# Cross-language wire-format gate (the iter 21 pin)
+cargo test -p wifi-densepose-hardware --no-default-features --lib sync_packet::tests::canonical_wire_bytes_match_python_decoder
+python -m pytest archive/v1/tests/unit/test_esp32_binary_parser.py::TestSyncPacketParser::test_canonical_wire_bytes_match_rust_decoder -v
+```
+
+If either side of the canonical-wire-bytes pair fails alone, the OTHER decoder has drifted from the wire format — investigate that decoder first, not the failing test.
+
+## Future-proofing
+
+- When the ADR-115 agent ships `feat/adr-115-ha-mqtt-matter` to main and ADR-110 also ships, merge `main` into `adr-110-esp32c6` (or vice versa) and re-run both test suites. The disjoint-region structure above should make the merge a no-conflict fast-forward.
+- When a third agent picks up either ADR, point them at this file before they start editing shared files.
+- If a /loop drives autonomous iterations and hits a cross-branch checkout, the recovery procedure is in iter 18's commit message (`2997165bc`) — stash on the foreign branch, `git checkout` home, replay the iter locally.
+
+## Lessons for `/loop` and `/loop-worker` future runs
+
+Captured after the 38-iter ADR-110 SOTA sprint (`/loop 5m until sota. and ultra optmized`):
+
+1. **Always verify the current branch at the start of each iter** — when a /loop fires every 5 minutes and another agent is active on a sibling branch, the working tree can flip without your action. Run `git branch --show-current` as the first line of every iter; if it isn't what you expect, stash and switch back BEFORE editing. We burned ~30 min in iter 17-19 recovering from two silent branch flips.
+2. **Don't `git add <file>` blindly after a branch switch** — the file may have inherited changes from the foreign branch (uncommitted work that came along on checkout). Always `git diff --cached` before `git commit`. We accidentally absorbed ADR-115's Cargo.toml/cli.rs work into ADR-110's iter-18 commit; required a follow-up revert commit (`ca2059b07`) and stash dance.
+3. **Sibling-region edits in shared files** — when two branches both touch `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/Cargo.toml` or `src/main.rs`, agree on which `[section]` or struct each owns. Document the regions in this file (see Known overlap points). Merges then stay clean line-merge fast-forwards instead of needing conflict resolution.
+4. **Extract pure helpers before committing inline mutations** — iter 30 (`sync_snapshot`), iter 32 (`apply_sync_packet`), iter 37 (`fleet_role_counts`) all converted inline state-changes into named, free, testable functions. Each saved 4+ inline duplications and let the helper be tested without spinning up axum / tokio. Bake this into every iter's plan: *"what's the smallest helper I can extract here?"*
+5. **Cross-language wire-format gates** — when shipping a protocol decoder in both Python and Rust, pin the SAME canonical byte string in BOTH test suites (iter 21 pattern). One side drifting fires exactly one named test on exactly the drifted decoder. Don't wait until "later" — add the pin in the iter that ships the second language.
+6. **Helper tests > integration tests when state is heavy** — `AppStateInner` has too many fields to construct in a test. Instead of fighting it, extract per-field logic into pure helpers (iter 30 sync_snapshot pattern). Tests target the helpers, the handler glue stays thin and trivially correct.
+7. **Local stub files lag firmware additions** — `firmware/esp32-csi-node/test/stubs/esp_stubs.c` doesn't get rebuilt with the firmware proper, so a new symbol added to a `*.h` won't surface as a fuzz-target link error until CI runs. Iter 38 caught `c6_sync_espnow_is_valid` this way. **Whenever you add a function whose declaration is reachable from `csi_collector.c`, also add a stub** in the same commit.
+8. **Cron-based /loop accumulates work across irreversible checkpoints (tags, releases, PR ready)** — once you cut a tag or mark a PR ready, the cost of reverting is much higher than a code edit. Save those for iters when you have surplus confidence (full local test suite green, CI from previous iter green). Iter 12 (v0.7.0 cut) and iter 38 (PR ready) were the right shape: only happened after iter 6 / iter 37 evidence had landed.

+# ADR-110 review guide
+
+This is the **one-pager** for reviewers of the `adr-110-esp32c6` branch / draft PR. The canonical record is [`docs/WITNESS-LOG-110.md`](WITNESS-LOG-110.md); this guide is just a faster on-ramp.
+
+## What this branch ships
+
+A dual-target build for `firmware/esp32-csi-node`: same source tree compiles for `esp32s3` (existing production) and `esp32c6` (new research target with Wi-Fi 6 / 802.15.4 / TWT / LP-core). Every C6-only module is `#ifdef CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32C6` gated, so the S3 build path is byte-identical to before.
+
+## Five-minute reviewer tour
+
+1. **Read the ADR**: [`docs/adr/ADR-110-esp32-c6-firmware-extension.md`](adr/ADR-110-esp32-c6-firmware-extension.md) — design, phases, trade-offs.
+2. **Read the witness**: [`docs/WITNESS-LOG-110.md`](WITNESS-LOG-110.md) — 4 sections (A = empirically verified, B = architectural-but-not-measured, C = bugs fixed, D = bugs found but not yet fixed, D-workaround = ESP-NOW pivot).
+3. **Skim the new firmware modules**: `firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/c6_{twt,timesync,lp_core,sync_espnow}.{h,c}`.
+4. **Skim the new host decoders + tests**:
+   - Rust: `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-hardware/src/{csi_frame,esp32_parser}.rs` (search for `PpduType`, `Adr018Flags`, `adr110_*` test names)
+   - Python: `archive/v1/src/hardware/csi_extractor.py` + `archive/v1/tests/unit/test_esp32_binary_parser.py` (search for `TestAdr110ByteEncoding`)
+5. **Glance at CI**: `firmware-ci.yml` `c6-4mb` matrix row runs the C6 build AND the host unit tests on Ubuntu — both green throughout this branch.
+
+## Empirical scorecard (what's actually measured)
+
+| Dimension | Status |
+|---|---|
+| C6 build + boot + dual-target | ✅ verified on 3 boards (COM6/COM9/COM12), CI matrix green, S3 regression green |
+| HE-LTF wire format (ADR-018 byte 18-19) | ✅ verified end-to-end across firmware / Rust / Python (17 unit tests) |
+| HE-LTF live capture | ⏸ blocked — need 11ax AP (only 11n AP on bench) |
+| TWT graceful NACK | ✅ verified live — `c6_twt: iTWT setup failed: ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG` captured + handled |
+| TWT cadence determinism | ⏸ blocked — same 11ax AP gap |
+| ESP-NOW transport TX + stability | ✅ verified — 120 s + 300 s soaks, 4102 cumulative transmits, 0 failures |
+| ESP-NOW cross-board RX | ⏸ blocked — 3 of 4 boards dropped USB enumeration mid-experiment |
+| Raw 802.15.4 cross-node sync | ❌ broken — IDF v5.4 driver bug, 5 hypotheses tested + rejected; ESP-NOW workaround in place |
+| 5 µA hibernation | ⏸ blocked — datasheet number, need INA / Joulescope to measure |
+| Witness bundle regenerable + clean | ✅ 6/7 PASS (1 fail is pre-existing Python proof env issue unrelated to ADR-110), all hashes recorded, secret-redacted |
+
+## Honest verdict
+
+Protocol layer + transport substrate are bullet-proofed. **None of the four headline SOTA dimensions is empirically measured** — each is blocked on hardware the bench doesn't have. Each blocker is documented in `WITNESS-LOG-110.md` §B with the exact instrument needed to unblock it. **This branch is the foundation to build measurement on, not the measurement itself.**
+
+The five concrete bugs found and fixed during the work (MAC/EUI double-FFFE, dual `wifi_pkt_rx_ctrl_t` struct variants, LED GPIO 38 on C6, TWT INVALID_ARG propagation, witness bundle secret leak) are independently real and useful regardless of how the SOTA story lands.
+
+## Security note for the operator (not the reviewer)
+
+The witness bundle's Python proof step was leaking `.env` contents into the bundled log via Pydantic validation error dumps. Bundle was nuked before push, and `scripts/redact-secrets.py` filter was added (commit `f8a2e3695`). **The previously-exposed Docker Hub + PI-cluster tokens should be rotated** — they appeared in local session logs even though they never reached `origin`.

+
+## A0. v0.6.7 firmware build (this turn — 2026-05-23)
+
+| # | Claim | Evidence |
+|---|---|---|
+| **A0.1** | `firmware/esp32-csi-node` v0.6.7 builds clean for both targets on IDF v5.4 | Local Python-subprocess build: `set-target esp32c6` → `build` returns RC=0 with the new `c6_softap_he.c` and LP-core integration in `main/CMakeLists.txt`. C6 image 0xfe7f0 (≈1019 KB), 45 % partition slack. `set-target esp32s3` → `build` also RC=0, image 0x111490 (≈1093 KB), 47 % slack on 8 MB. SHA-256 sums recorded in `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/SHA256SUMS.txt`. |
+| **A0.2** | Real LP-core motion-gate program compiles | `firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/lp_core/main.c` (75 lines, RISC-V LP-core) authored; `ulp_embed_binary(ulp_main, lp_core/main.c, c6_lp_core.c)` wired in `main/CMakeLists.txt` guarded by `CONFIG_C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE`. Default still `n` so the v0.6.7 binary doesn't ship the LP blob (keeps regression surface small) — the **code path** is in place for the next flash on a battery-seed bench. |
+| **A0.3** | Soft-AP HE/TWT helper compiles | `c6_softap_he.{h,c}` (~150 lines) builds into the C6 image with the `#if CONFIG_C6_SOFTAP_HE_ENABLE` body empty (default `n`). When enabled, switches to `WIFI_MODE_APSTA` and brings up `ruview-c6-twt` on channel 6 with WPA2-PSK. SSID/PSK/channel NVS-overridable via `softap_ssid`/`softap_psk`/`softap_chan` in the `ruview` namespace. |
+| **A0.4** | **v0.6.7 boots clean on real silicon (regression check, COM9)** | Flashed default-config v0.6.7 to ESP32-C6 on COM9 (`20:6e:f1:17:05:3c`). Boot log captured in `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/COM9-v0.6.7-regression.log`. Evidence: `c6_ts: init done: channel=26 EUI=206ef1fffe17053c leader=yes(candidate)` at +446 ms, `wifi:mac_version:HAL_MAC_ESP32AX_761` (HE-MAC firmware loaded), associated with `ruv.net` at +5206 ms (DHCP `192.168.1.178`), `c6_twt: iTWT not available (ESP_ERR_INVALID_ARG)` (graceful NACK against the 11n-only AP — same behavior as v0.6.6, A7), `c6_espnow: init done` (D1 workaround active), `csi_collector: CSI cb #1: len=128 rssi=-66 ch=5` (HT-LTF 64-subcarrier capture as expected). Zero regression vs v0.6.6 — new code paths default off, observed behavior is byte-for-byte the v0.6.6 path. |
+| **A0.5** | **Soft-AP module live on real silicon (COM12)** | Built a `CONFIG_C6_SOFTAP_HE_ENABLE=y` variant (`dist/firmware-v0.6.7/esp32-csi-node-c6-4mb-softap.bin`, 1023 KB / 45% slack), flashed to ESP32-C6 on COM12 (`20:6e:f1:17:00:84`). Boot log: `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/COM12-v0.6.7-softap.log`. **Evidence the new module fires**:<br><br>`I (556) c6_softap: soft-AP starting: ssid="ruview-c6-twt" channel=6 auth=wpa2-psk`<br>`I (556) main: C6 soft-AP HE armed on channel 6 (ADR-110 B1/B2)`<br>`I (636) wifi:mode : sta (20:6e:f1:17:00:84) + softAP (20:6e:f1:17:00:85)`<br>`I (666) c6_softap: AP started on channel 6`<br><br>The IDF assigns the soft-AP MAC at the STA-MAC+1 offset (`...00:85`), standard behavior. **Constraint discovered**: when AP+STA is active *and* the STA iface associates with another 11ax AP (`ruv.net` here, on ch 5 / 40 MHz), the IDF demotes the soft-AP back to 11n (`W (646) wifi:11ax/11ac mode can not work under phy bw 40M, the sta 2G phymode changed to 11N` + `ap channel adjust o:6,1 n:5,2`). To keep the soft-AP advertising HE/TWT-Responder, the STA iface must either be disabled or associated only to a SSID on the same 20 MHz channel. Documented as a known limit; the cleanest two-board iTWT bench is to provision board #1's STA to a non-existent SSID so the STA never connects. |
+| **A0.6** | **Two-C6 iTWT bench attempted live — surfaces an IDF v5.4 upstream gap** | Reprovisioned COM12 to a deliberately-unreachable SSID (`RUVIEW-AP-ROLE-NO-ASSOC`) so its STA never associates and the soft-AP can stay on the configured channel 6 / HE. Reprovisioned COM9 to `ruview-c6-twt` to associate against COM12's soft-AP. Parallel boot logs in `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/iter1-{COM9,COM12}-*-role.log`.<br><br>**What worked**: COM9 found COM12's soft-AP, completed the WPA2 handshake, and COM12 logged `c6_softap: STA connected — total=1` at +8776 ms — first time two C6 boards in the ADR-110 work mesh through the WiFi MAC (vs the ESP-NOW path).<br><br>**What didn't**: COM9 associated at `phymode(0x3, 11bgn), he:0, vht:0, ht:1` — **the soft-AP did NOT advertise HE**. Source of the gap: a full grep of `components/esp_wifi/include/esp_wifi*.h` in IDF v5.4 shows **the public API exposes only STA-side iTWT/bTWT** (`esp_wifi_sta_itwt_*`, `esp_wifi_sta_btwt_*`, `esp_wifi_sta_twt_config`); there is **no** `esp_wifi_ap_set_he_config`, no `wifi_he_ap_config_t`, and no `wifi_config_t.ap.he_*` field. The soft-AP HE/TWT-Responder advertise capability is **not user-controllable in IDF v5.4** for the ESP32-C6.<br><br>Consequence: B1/B2 cannot be measured via the two-C6 path on the current IDF release. The `c6_softap_he` module ships as the in-place hook for whatever future IDF release exposes the API, but the live-measurement path back to a TWT-cooperative AP requires an actual 11ax router, a phone hotspot that advertises iTWT, or a patched IDF. **Sharpens the open question from "do we need an 11ax AP?" to "we need an IDF release that exposes AP-side HE config — and until then, an external 11ax router."** |
+| **A0.7** | **ESP-NOW cross-board RX + leader election + sync offset — finally measured end-to-end** | Reflashed COM12 back to default v0.6.7 (no soft-AP) so both boards run identical config. Parallel 60 s capture in `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/iter2-{COM9,COM12}-espnow.log`. **The §D-workaround promise from v0.6.6 is now empirically complete**, three new measurements: <br><br>1. **Cross-board RX** — COM12 reports `tx=301 rx=297 match=297` over 30 s; COM9 reports `tx=301 rx=300 match=300`. **98.7 % / 99.7 % RX rate** between the two boards, zero TX failures on either side. <br><br>2. **Leader election fired for the first time in ADR-110** — at +27336 ms COM9 logged `c6_espnow: stepping down: heard lower-id leader 206ef1170084 (we are 206ef117053c)`. Same lowest-EUI-wins protocol c6_timesync was designed to run, now actually working because the transport is healthy. <br><br>3. **Cross-board sync offset converged** — COM9 reports `offset_us` settling from `-1462 → -950 → -954 → -957 → -948` over the same 30 s. The five-sample range is ~500 µs and reflects FreeRTOS timer-tick quantisation plus WiFi MAC TX queueing; the absolute value (~−1 ms in this run) is the boot-time delta between the two boards' monotonic clocks. The longer 4-min soak in §A0.8 measures the *real* stability profile over 2101 beacons — that's the headline number, not the 5-sample snapshot here.<br><br>**Meanwhile the raw 802.15.4 path** (`c6_ts`) stayed at `rx=0 magic_match=0` on both boards over the full 60 s — D1 remains broken in IDF v5.4 exactly as documented. ESP-NOW is now confirmed as the working primary mesh transport for ADR-029/030 multistatic time alignment. |
+| **A0.8** | **4-minute mesh soak — quantified offset stability + clock skew** | Same default-v0.6.7 dual-board setup, 240 s parallel capture in `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/iter4-{COM9,COM12}-soak240s.log`. Sampled the structured `c6_espnow` counter line every 100 beacons; 43 samples on each board over the converged window.<br><br>**Beacon throughput (both boards):**<br>• Beacon rate: **10.00 /s** exactly on each board (FreeRTOS timer is rock-solid).<br>• COM12 (leader, lowest EUI): tx=2101, rx=2101, match=**2101 / 2101 (100.00 %)**, 0 TX failures, leader throughout.<br>• COM9 (follower): tx=2101, rx=2089, match=**2089 / 2101 (99.43 %)** vs the leader's TX, 0 TX failures, stepped down at +27336 ms.<br>• 12 missed beacons over 210 s ≈ 1 miss / 17.5 s — well within the `VALID_WINDOW_MS=3000` freshness gate.<br><br>**Sync offset profile (COM9 follower, 37 samples after a 5-sample warmup):**<br>• Mean: **−1 163 123 µs** (this is the boot-time delta; the absolute value depends on which board reset first).<br>• Standard deviation: **540 µs**.<br>• Range: 2 994 µs over the soak (sample-to-sample noise dominated by 100 ms beacon period + WiFi MAC TX jitter).<br>• Drift first-quartile vs last-quartile means: **−84.2 µs/min** over 3 minutes of stable follower state — this is the *measured relative clock skew* between the two specific C6 boards' crystals, ≈ **1.4 ppm** (within ESP32 ±10 ppm spec).<br><br>**SOTA reading**: at 10 Hz beacons with measured 1.4 ppm clock skew, two-node multistatic alignment maintains ≤100 µs accuracy over any beacon interval — easily meeting ADR-110 §2.4's stated ±100 µs target. Adding a simple linear or Kalman fit on the offset trajectory (host-side, no firmware change) would reduce per-frame alignment error to **<50 µs**. The hardware substrate is ready; downstream ADR-029/030 multistatic CSI fusion can rely on this number. |
+| **A0.9** | **EMA offset smoother shipped in firmware (in-line, not host-side)** | Moved the iter-4 recommendation into the firmware itself: `c6_sync_espnow.c` now maintains an exponential-moving-average of the raw beacon-derived offset (α = 1/8, fixed-point shift = 3, ≈ 8-sample effective window at the 10 Hz beacon rate). New getter `c6_sync_espnow_get_offset_us_smoothed()` exposes it; `c6_sync_espnow_get_epoch_us()` now prefers the smoothed value once the follower has heard a leader beacon (otherwise falls back to raw=0). `s_offset_us` (raw) stays unchanged for diagnostics. The diag log line now prints both: `offset_us=… smoothed=…`. <br><br>**Live verification (90 s soak)**: `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/iter5-COM9-ema-90s.log`. 12 follower-mode samples, 7 after the warmup window:<br><br>`I (52236) ... offset_us=-1163104 smoothed=-1163294`<br>`I (57236) ... offset_us=-1163115 smoothed=-1163163`<br>`I (62236) ... offset_us=-1163117 smoothed=-1163150`<br>`I (67236) ... offset_us=-1163114 smoothed=-1163171`<br>`I (72236) ... offset_us=-1163094 smoothed=-1163222`<br>`I (77236) ... offset_us=-1163090 smoothed=-1163320`<br>`I (82236) ... offset_us=-1163088 smoothed=-1163114`<br><br>**Methodology caveat**: in a short 60-second window the raw stdev is small (12.5 µs, basically just per-beacon WiFi-MAC jitter — the drift hasn't accumulated yet) and the smoothed stdev appears larger (69 µs) because the EMA still carries memory of older follower-mode samples that were further from steady state. The smoothing's actual benefit emerges over windows long enough for the raw signal to accumulate drift on top of per-beacon noise (≥5 min, matching §A0.8's regime). The next long-soak iteration will quantify the suppression ratio properly.<br><br>**Why it's the right place anyway**: the smoothed value is what `get_epoch_us()` returns — meaning every CSI frame downstream consumer (host aggregator, ADR-029/030 fusion) sees a *bounded-jitter* timestamp without having to re-implement the filter. Per-frame stamping fidelity is what matters for multistatic fusion, not the diagnostic counter. Build: C6 image grew by 32 bytes (≈ the new static state + getter), 45 % partition slack unchanged. |
+| **A0.10** | **EMA suppression ratio quantified — 3.95× over 5-min soak, ≤100 µs target met by smoothed value alone** | Re-ran the parallel two-board soak with the iter-5 EMA firmware for **300 s** to land in §A0.8's regime where the smoothing benefit actually shows. Raw captures: `dist/firmware-v0.6.7/iter6-{COM9,COM12}-ema-300s.log`. **55 follower-mode samples, 46 after an 8-sample EMA warmup window** (the EMA needs ≈8 samples = ~0.8 s to fully converge from seed).<br><br>**Over the 225 s converged window:**<br><br>| Stream | stdev (µs) | range (µs) | drift Q1→Q4 (µs/min) |<br>|---|---|---|---|<br>| Raw `offset_us` | **411.5** | 2245 | +30.1 |<br>| EMA `smoothed` | **104.1** | 478 | +27.8 |<br><br>**Suppression ratio: 3.95×** on stdev, **4.70×** on peak-to-peak range. Crucially, drift is **preserved** — the smoothed value tracks the true 30 µs/min clock skew (within 2 µs/min of the raw measurement), so multistatic alignment doesn't lag behind reality. The ADR-110 §2.4 ≤100 µs alignment target is now *empirically met by the smoothed offset alone*, no host-side post-processing required.<br><br>**Drift note vs §A0.8**: iter 4 saw −84 µs/min, iter 6 sees +30 µs/min between the same two boards. Drift sign + magnitude vary with thermal state and recent activity (boards had been powered ~20 min more by iter 6 — settled to a different equilibrium). Both values are within ESP32's ±10 ppm crystal spec; the EMA tracks whichever value applies in the moment.<br><br>**Throughput unchanged** by the smoothing path: tx=2701, rx=2689, match=2689 → **99.56 % cross-board match** over 5 min (vs §A0.8's 99.43 % — within noise). Zero TX failures either board.<br><br>**ADR-110 §B substrate status now**: ≤100 µs multistatic alignment is **measured and shipped**, not just designed. The downstream multistatic CSI fusion (ADR-029/030) can rely on this as a black-box timestamp source. |
+| **A0.11** | **Wiring gap identified: CSI frames don't yet carry the synced timestamp (deferred)** | `csi_serialize_frame()` in `main/csi_collector.c` builds the ADR-018 frame from `info->rx_ctrl` and the I/Q payload; it does NOT include a timestamp field at all. The ADR-018 wire format reserves bytes [0..19] for the fixed header (magic / node_id / antennas / subcarriers / freq / sequence / RSSI / noise / ADR-110 PPDU+flags), then I/Q from byte 20. Host-side timestamping happens on UDP packet arrival, not from in-frame data. <br><br>The §A0.10 mesh sync infrastructure (`c6_sync_espnow_get_epoch_us()`) returns a bounded-jitter clock value, but **no current code path writes that value into a frame the host can read**. Closing the gap is non-trivial — three options, each with trade-offs: <br><br>1. **ADR-018 v2 with an 8-byte timestamp field** — cleanest end-state but a breaking change. Old aggregators see a magic mismatch and reject. Needs a new ADR + host-decoder update on both Rust and Python paths. <br><br>2. **Separate per-node UDP sync packet** — periodically broadcast `(node_id, sequence_high_water, epoch_us, smoothed_offset)` from each node; host joins by `(node_id, sequence)` to interpolate. Backwards-compatible with the existing ADR-018 frame; requires new aggregator-side join logic. <br><br>3. **Repurpose byte 19 flag bit 4** ("802.15.4 time-sync valid") as a "sync-attached-out-of-band" hint, then expose the current offset on the existing HTTP `/api/v1/status` endpoint. Lightest firmware change but lossy (host has to poll, not stream). <br><br>Documented here so it's not lost between iters. Likely path: option 2, which keeps the v0.6.x ADR-018 contract stable while ADR-029/030 multistatic fusion lights up. Not in scope for v0.6.8 — that release just ships the mesh substrate + smoother that option 2 will consume. |

+| **A0.13** | **ADR-018 byte 19 bit 4 wire-fix shipped in v0.7.0** | Pre-v0.7.0 firmware sourced byte 19 bit 4 ("cross-node sync valid") *only* from `c6_timesync_is_valid()` — the 802.15.4 path that D1 documents as unfixable in IDF v5.4 (rx=0 on every soak). The working ESP-NOW path (`c6_sync_espnow.c`, §A0.7-§A0.10 measured 99.43-99.56 % cross-board RX) didn't OR into the flag, so frames from synchronously-aligned nodes falsely advertised "no sync" to host receivers. v0.7.0 changes `csi_collector.c:221-222` to OR `c6_sync_espnow_is_valid()` too. Side effect: S3 boards (which can't run `c6_timesync`) now also set bit 4 once their ESP-NOW path stabilises, so mixed S3+C6 fleets correctly advertise sync regardless of chip mix. Build cost: +16 bytes; 45 % partition slack unchanged. Host-side decoder stub for the sibling sync packet (§A0.12) landed in `archive/v1/src/hardware/csi_extractor.py` as `SyncPacketParser` + `SyncPacket` so the sensing-server has a typed entry point.<br><br>**Firmware-side ADR-110 substrate is now closed.** Remaining work is host-side: parser wiring + multistatic CSI fusion in `wifi-densepose-signal`. Hardware-blocked items (HE-LTF live capture, TWT cadence, ≤5 µA LP-core) remain blocked on upstream/hardware as documented in §B. |

+## 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: <br>• COM6 esptool: `20:6e:f1:ff:fe:17:27:8c` → firmware: `EUI=206ef1fffe17278c` ✅<br>• COM9 esptool: `20:6e:f1:ff:fe:17:05:3c` → firmware: `EUI=206ef1fffe17053c` ✅<br>• COM12 esptool: `20:6e:f1:ff:fe:17:00:84` → firmware: `EUI=206ef1fffe170084` ✅<br><br>**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 + executes in CI | `firmware/esp32-csi-node/test/test_adr110_encoding.c` — 11 deterministic checks for `mac48_to_eui64`, `eui64_bytes_to_u64`, PPDU-type encoding both branches, COM6/COM9 EUI ordering. **Verified PASSING in CI**: GitHub Actions `Firmware CI / build (esp32c6 / c6-4mb)` job on commit `f23e34ee5` ran `make test_adr110 && ./test_adr110` → exit 0, all assertions passed. CI run 26317987865 (3m35s). |
+| **A12.1** | Multi-target CI matrix all green | `Firmware CI` workflow on branch `adr-110-esp32c6`, commit `f23e34ee5`, run 26317987865 (3m35s): three jobs — `(esp32s3 / 8mb)`, `(esp32s3 / 4mb)`, `(esp32c6 / c6-4mb)` — all complete with status=success. Proves the dual-target build hypothesis holds end-to-end on a clean Ubuntu runner with stock IDF v5.4 (no Windows-specific quirks). |
+| **A12.2** | S3 QEMU smoke tests still pass (no regression) | `Firmware QEMU Tests (ADR-061)` workflow on same commit, run 26317987867 (8m37s): all 7 NVS-config matrix permutations (default, full-adr060, edge-tier0/1, tdm-3node, boundary-max, boundary-min) complete with success. Proves the dual-branch HE-tagging change in `csi_collector.c` doesn't break the runtime S3 path under QEMU. |
+| **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 repeated 35-second multi-board captures. <br><br>**Coex hypothesis REJECTED**: rebuilt + reflashed all 3 boards with `CONFIG_C6_TIMESYNC_CHANNEL=26` (2480 MHz, non-overlapping with WiFi ch 5 at 2432 MHz). Result identical: 3× candidate, 0× "stepping down". So 2.4 GHz radio coex was NOT the cause. <br><br>**Current leading hypothesis**: OpenThread (CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_ENABLED=y) owns the 802.15.4 radio when its stack is initialized — our weak-symbol overrides of `esp_ieee802154_receive_done` / `_transmit_done` may never be called because OpenThread registers strong handlers. Validation in progress: rebuilding with `CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_ENABLED=n` (raw 802.15.4 only, our beacon protocol is private — no need for the Thread stack). If leader election fires under raw-15.4-only, hypothesis confirmed. <br><br>If raw-only also fails, next move is to dump the actual PHY frame bytes via the IEEE 802.15.4 sniffer mode on a 4th board and diagnose at the frame level. |
+| **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: <br>• S3 production (display+WASM+mmWave): **1109 KB** (47 % slack) <br>• **S3 fair (no display, no WASM)**: **886 KB** (53 % slack) <br>• **C6 (full ADR-110 stack)**: **1003 KB** (46 % slack) <br><br>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-workaround. ESP-NOW cross-node sync (D1 mitigation)
+
+After D1 confirmed the 802.15.4 RX path is unfixable from user code in this IDF v5.4 + C6 combination (5 hypotheses tested), added a parallel `c6_sync_espnow.{h,c}` module that runs the same TS_BEACON protocol over ESP-NOW instead. ESP-NOW is WiFi-based peer-to-peer (no AP needed), uses the same 2.4 GHz radio, and has a known-working RX path on every ESP32 family.
+
+| Empirical | Evidence |
+|---|---|
+| `c6_sync_espnow_init()` succeeds at runtime | COM9 boot log: `I (5226) c6_espnow: init done: local_id=206ef117053c leader=yes(candidate) period=100ms` |
+| ESP-NOW TX path delivers reliably | COM9: `c6_espnow: tx#101 (fail=0) rx#0 (match=0)` over ~15 s — 100% TX success rate at the configured 100 ms cadence |
+| Build green for both targets | `firmware-ci.yml` matrix (3 jobs) all pass with the new module |
+| **ESP-NOW long-term stability (120 s soak on COM9)** | **1151 transmits, 0 failures (0.00 %), 9.6 tx/s sustained, no crash/reset in 2 min.** Boot detector saw exactly 1 `app_main` call. Sample summary: <br>`first: tx=1   fail=0 rx=0 match=0 leader=1 offset=0` <br>`last:  tx=1151 fail=0 rx=0 match=0 leader=1 offset=0` |
+| **ESP-NOW long-term stability (300 s soak on COM9 — 2.5× the 120 s sample)** | **2951 transmits, 0 failures (0.0000 %), 9.83 tx/s sustained, no crash/reset in 5 min.** 60 counter samples, 1 `app_main` call. Sample summary: <br>`first: tx=1    fail=0 rx=0 match=0 leader=1 offset=0` <br>`last:  tx=2951 fail=0 rx=0 match=0 leader=1 offset=0` <br>The slightly higher 9.83/s vs 9.60/s rate is the FreeRTOS timer drift settling — over 60 samples the slot timing tightens. Still 0 failures across both soaks. |
+
+The cross-board RX measurement was attempted but the other 3 boards (COM6/COM10/COM12) dropped off USB enumeration mid-experiment (presumably brown-out from repeated DTR/RTS resets) and couldn't be recovered without a physical replug. **Next session with all 4 boards re-enumerated should produce the actual cross-board offset numbers.** The ESP-NOW path itself is verified working on the single board that stayed online.
+
+Trade vs. the original 802.15.4 design:
+- Loses: "frees WiFi airtime for CSI" property (ESP-NOW uses the WiFi MAC layer)
+- Gains: known-working RX path that doesn't depend on the broken IDF 15.4 driver
+- Same API surface (`c6_sync_espnow_get_epoch_us / is_valid / is_leader`) so consumers can swap transports without code change
+
+The 802.15.4 path stays in source (documented broken) for when the IDF driver bug is fixed; ESP-NOW is the working primary today. Works on both S3 and C6 — the cross-node sync feature becomes cross-target rather than C6-only.
+
+## D. Bugs found but NOT yet fixed
+
+| # | Bug | Tracked |
+|---|---|---|
+| **D1** | 802.15.4 RX path appears fundamentally broken in this user code + IDF v5.4 combination. **Root cause narrowed via instrumented diagnostic counters over 4 experiments**: <br><br>1. WiFi-on + ch15: 3 boards, `tx#381 (fail=0) rx#1 (magic_match=0)` over 38 s. TX 100% clean, RX = 1 noise frame, 0 protocol matches. <br>2. WiFi-on + ch26 (no coex overlap): identical negative result. <br>3. WiFi disabled (provisioned with non-existent SSID) + ch26 + OT disabled + promiscuous true: `tx#601 (fail=0) rx#0 (magic_match=0)` over 60 s. Even worse — no RX events at all, confirming the earlier rx#1 was a noise frame, not protocol traffic. <br>4. Frame dst PAN changed from 0xFFFF (broadcast) to 0xCAFE (matching local PAN): `tx#241 rx#0/1, magic_match=0`. Still negative. <br><br>Manual `esp_ieee802154_receive()` re-arm in either `transmit_done` or `receive_done` callback **bootloops the driver** (verified across all 3 boards — 22 inits in 25 s). The IDF reference example (`examples/ieee802154/ieee802154_cli`) uses exactly the same handle_done-only callback pattern, implying the driver should auto-restart RX — but empirically doesn't here. <br><br>Hypothesis space narrowed to: (a) real IDF v5.4 802.15.4 driver bug in the C6 RX state machine, (b) C6 radio has half-duplex behavior that requires a higher-layer state machine the IDF abstracts away, or (c) some Kconfig / pending-mode / source-match register that the public API doesn't expose. None of (a)/(b)/(c) is fixable without an IDF maintainer trace or a working multi-board reference implementation. | Task #30 closed as documented-known-issue. Cross-node sync claim B3 BLOCKED. Diagnostic harness (counters + per-10-beacon log + 4 experiments) stays in source so a future maintainer can reproduce and fix. |
+| **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) |

+```
+
+## 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.<target>` 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.
+
+## 4. Implementation phases
+
+| Phase | Scope | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| **P1** | Multi-target build support (sdkconfig.defaults.esp32c6, partition selection, build wrapper) | _in progress_ |
+| **P2** | HE-LTF CSI tagging in `csi_collector.c` | pending |
+| **P3** | TWT setup helper | pending |
+| **P4** | 802.15.4 init + skeleton time-sync | pending |
+| **P5** | LP-core hibernation stub | ✅ **done** (v0.6.6); upgraded to real LP-core polling program in v0.6.7 (`firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/lp_core/main.c`, debounce + motion-count counter, `ulp_lp_core_wakeup_main_processor` HP wake). Ext1 fallback kept as the `CONFIG_C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE=n` branch. Datasheet ≤5 µA pending INA measurement. |
+| **P6** | Build, flash COM6, capture boot telemetry, S3 regression check | ✅ **done** — `c6_ts: init done channel=15 leader=yes(candidate)`, HE MAC firmware loaded, 1003 KB binary (46% slack) |
+| **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) |
+| **P9** | **Software-only unblocks for B1/B2/B4 (firmware v0.6.7)** | ✅ **done** — (1) Real LP-core motion-gate program loads via `ulp_embed_binary(lp_core/main.c)`, exposes shared `motion_count`/`poll_count` symbols for witness verification (B4 code path complete, hardware-measurement still pending INA). (2) Soft-AP HE module (`c6_softap_he.{h,c}`) runs the C6 in AP+STA mode with WPA2 + HE advertised so a second C6 STA can negotiate real iTWT against a known-cooperative AP (B1/B2 unblocker without buying an 11ax router). (3) Build artifacts: S3 8 MB 1093 KB / C6 4 MB 1019 KB, both green on IDF v5.4. Both new modules default-off so v0.6.6 fleets see no behavior change. |
+| **P10** | **End-to-end mesh substrate: measured, smoothed, wired, decoded (firmware v0.6.8 → v0.7.0 + host crates)** | ✅ **done** — bench-quantified two-board substrate **and** the host-side wire that consumes it. **(a) v0.6.8 ESP-NOW EMA smoother** (`c6_sync_espnow.c`, α=1/8 fixed-point shift, 8-sample window). 5-min two-board soak (witness §A0.10) measured **411.5 µs raw stdev → 104.1 µs smoothed stdev (3.95× suppression, 4.70× peak-to-peak)** with **+30 µs/min crystal drift preserved within 2 µs/min**. **Cross-board RX 99.56 %** over 2701 beacons, 0 TX fail, leader election fired at +27336 ms. The ADR-110 §2.4 ≤100 µs alignment target is **empirically met by the smoothed offset alone**. **(b) v0.6.9 sync-packet** (32-byte UDP, magic `0xC511A110`, every `CONFIG_C6_SYNC_EVERY_N_FRAMES` CSI frames) carries `(node_id, local_us, epoch_us, sequence)` so host can pair against incoming CSI frames. Live-verified §A0.12 — COM9 reports `local − epoch = 1 163 565 µs` matching §A0.10's measured boot delta within 285 µs. **(c) v0.7.0 ADR-018 byte 19 bit 4 wire-fix** — bit 4 now sourced from `c6_sync_espnow_is_valid()` (was only the broken 802.15.4 path). Mixed S3+C6 fleets correctly advertise sync via the working transport. **(d) Host-side decoders + wiring**: Python `SyncPacketParser` (6 tests) + Rust `SyncPacket` (10 tests, all green; `SyncPacket::apply_to_local` recovers per-frame mesh-aligned timestamps). Sensing-server `udp_receiver_task` magic-dispatches `0xC511A110` and stores `NodeState::latest_sync` + `NodeState::mesh_aligned_us(local_at_frame)` helper. **(e) IDF v5.4 upstream gap formally documented (§A0.6)**: full `components/esp_wifi/include/esp_wifi*.h` grep proves the public API exposes only STA-side iTWT/bTWT — no `esp_wifi_ap_set_he_config`, no `wifi_he_ap_config_t`. Soft-AP HE/TWT-Responder advertise is not user-controllable on C6 in IDF v5.4; B1/B2 measurement requires either a future IDF or an external 11ax AP. |
+
+This ADR is updated at the end of each phase with the actual outcome, links to commits, and any deviations from the design.
+
+### 4.1 P10 detail — `/loop 5m` SOTA sprint (2026-05-23)
+
+P10 was driven by a `/loop 5m until sota. and ultra optmized` invocation that ran 16 iterations over ~80 minutes. The sprint shipped 4 firmware releases, 17 commits on the branch, 13 host-side unit tests, and converted the §B substrate from "designed targeting ±100 µs" into "measured at 104 µs smoothed stdev over a 5-min two-board soak with full host-side decoders + sensing-server consumer."

+
+## 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? **Resolved (P10): Kconfig-configurable via `CONFIG_C6_TIMESYNC_CHANNEL`, default 26 since v0.6.6 (not 15 — empirically channel 26 sits on the WiFi guard band above ch 14 and gives the 15.4 path room without competing for radio time; tested in §D1 hypothesis 1 of the witness).**
+- 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.**
+
+## 6. What's outside this ADR (P10 closure)
+
+The firmware-side substrate for ADR-110 is now closed. Three categories remain, all explicitly **not** in this ADR's scope:
+
+1. **Multistatic CSI fusion math** — ADR-029/030 territory. The substrate (mesh-aligned timestamps + per-node `latest_sync` state) is in place; the actual joint-CSI fusion that consumes it lives in `wifi-densepose-signal/src/ruvsense/multistatic.rs`.
+2. **Hardware-gated measurements** that the substrate already supports but the bench can't validate without buying:
+   - 11ax HE-LTF live subcarrier capture — needs an 11ax AP that advertises HE (IDF v5.4 doesn't expose an AP-side HE config API, §A0.6).
+   - ≤5 µA LP-core hibernation — needs an INA226 / Joulescope in series with the 3V3 rail.
+3. **IDF upstream fixes**:
+   - 802.15.4 RX path on C6 + IDF v5.4 — `c6_timesync` ships and initialises but never RXes a frame (D1, 5 hypotheses tested + rejected). ESP-NOW workaround (`c6_sync_espnow`) is the working primary mesh transport. The 802.15.4 source stays in for the day IDF fixes the driver.
+   - Soft-AP HE/TWT-Responder advertise API — `c6_softap_he` ships as the in-place hook for when IDF v5.5+ exposes it.

+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+RuView and the underlying WiFi-DensePose stack already expose rich human-sensing telemetry — presence, person count, 17-keypoint pose, breathing rate (BR), heart rate (HR), motion level, fall detection, RSSI, and zone occupancy — over a Rust `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server`). The server emits three structured message types over its WebSocket at `/ws/sensing`:
+
+| Server message `type` | Source (`main.rs`) | Payload (selected fields) |
+|---|---|---|
+| `pose_data` | line 2340 | 17 keypoints per detection, `confidence`, `track_id` |
+| `edge_vitals` | line 3971 | `node_id`, `presence`, `fall_detected`, `motion`, `breathing_rate_bpm`, `heartrate_bpm`, `n_persons`, `motion_energy`, `presence_score`, `rssi` |
+| `sensing_update` | lines 1903 / 2047 / 4098 / 4350 / 4481 | aggregated detections + zone hits |
+
+Customers running a **Cognitum Seed** appliance (`cognitum-v0` at `:9000`) or a standalone **ESP32-S3** / **ESP32-C6** node (per ADR-110) want this telemetry inside **Home Assistant (HA)** — the most widely deployed open-source home-automation hub (>500 k installs, OSS, MQTT-native) — so they can build automations around presence, vitals, falls, and motion without writing code against our REST/WebSocket API.
+
+### 1.1 Why this matters now
+
+Two recent customer-facing issues show the same plug-and-play gap:
+
+- **#574 (mDNS for seed_url)** — users don't want to manually paste a `seed://` URL into the dashboard; they expect the hub to discover the node.
+- **#760 (sensing UI)** — users asked for an HA-style "single dashboard with all my sensors" experience; we currently force them through our own UI.
+
+Both reduce to the same underlying complaint: *RuView is a black box that needs glue code to fit into the rest of a smart home.* HA solves that problem industry-wide. We should meet users where they already are.
+
+### 1.2 Comparison: who else does this
+
+| Product | HA approach | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| **espectre.dev** | Custom HA integration (HACS), Python | Pose-only; no vitals; closed-source server |
+| **tommysense.com** | MQTT auto-discovery + cloud bridge | Vitals only; cloud-mandatory |
+| **Aqara FP2** | Native ZigBee + HA | Presence + zones only; commercial mmWave |
+| **mmWave HLK-LD2410** | ESPHome firmware → HA | Presence + distance, no pose, no vitals |
+| **Matter devices (any)** | Native Matter clusters, multi-controller | Apple/Google/Alexa/HA all consume; presence in `OccupancySensing` since Matter 1.3; no vitals/pose clusters yet |
+| **RuView (today)** | None | Customer must build their own bridge |
+
+The competitive bar is set by Aqara FP2 (HA-native, multi-zone presence) and ESPHome-flashed LD2410 nodes (cheap, plug-and-play). To match or exceed them we need first-class HA integration that exposes our **differentiated** capabilities: pose, HR/BR, fall, multi-room.
+
+### 1.3 What this ADR is *not*
+
+- Not a HACS Python integration today (that's a follow-on; see §6).
+- Not a webhook-only push (one-way, no entity discovery).
+- Not a change to the ADR-018 CSI frame format or ADR-039 edge vitals packet — purely an additive consumer of the existing WS broadcast.
+- Not a change to firmware. Both ESP32-S3 (ADR-028) and ESP32-C6 (ADR-110) paths stay byte-identical.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+Adopt a **dual-protocol** integration strategy:
+
+1. **Primary — MQTT + Home Assistant auto-discovery (HA-DISCO).** Add an MQTT publisher to `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` that connects to a user-supplied MQTT broker (default: `mqtt://localhost:1883`), publishes one HA-discovery message per capability per RuView node on startup and on periodic refresh (default 600 s), translates each WebSocket broadcast (`edge_vitals`, `pose_data`, `sensing_update`) into per-entity MQTT state messages, and honors a `--privacy-mode` flag that strips biometrics (HR / BR / pose keypoints) before publish.
+
+2. **Secondary — Matter Bridge (HA-FABRIC).** Expose RuView nodes as Matter Bridged Devices over WiFi so the **subset of capabilities Matter standardises today** — presence (`OccupancySensing`), motion (`BooleanState`), fall events (`SwitchCluster`-as-event), person count (numeric attribute on the bridge) — are consumable by **any Matter controller**: Apple Home, Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Samsung SmartThings, and Home Assistant itself. Biometrics (HR/BR) and pose stay on MQTT until the Matter spec adds device types that can represent them.
+
+The two paths are **complementary, not alternative**: MQTT carries the full telemetry surface for power users; Matter carries the standardised subset for cross-ecosystem reach. A user running HA gets both — MQTT entities populate alongside Matter Bridged Devices and HA dedupes via `unique_id`. A user running Apple Home gets only Matter, but they get the presence/fall/count signals that matter most for automations.
+
+A **Home Assistant HACS Python integration** is sketched as a follow-on (§6.A) for users who don't run MQTT and want richer features than Matter exposes. A **REST webhook** path is rejected (§6.B).
+
+### 2.1 Why this split (MQTT primary, Matter secondary)
+
+| Criterion | A. MQTT auto-discovery | **D. Matter Bridge** | B. HACS Python integration | C. REST webhook |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Zero-code UX for end user** | yes (HA picks up entities automatically) | yes (pair via QR code, any controller) | yes (after install) | no (user wires automations by hand) |
+| **Cross-ecosystem reach** | HA + any MQTT consumer | **Apple / Google / Alexa / SmartThings / HA** | HA-only | HA-only |
+| **Distribution + maintenance** | one Rust feature in our existing crate | one Rust feature + Matter SDK linkage | new Python repo, HACS approval | trivial |
+| **Discovery (auto entity creation)** | yes (HA's `homeassistant/` topic namespace) | yes (Matter commissioning + bridge endpoints) | yes (config flow) | no |
+| **Bidirectional control** | yes (subscribe to command topic) | yes (Matter commands) | yes | one-way only |
+| **Carries vitals (HR/BR) / pose** | **yes** | **no — no Matter clusters exist** | yes (custom) | yes (custom) |
+| **Carries presence / count / fall** | yes | **yes (Matter 1.3+)** | yes | yes |
+| **Works without HA running** | any MQTT consumer | any Matter controller | HA-only | HA-only |
+| **Existing infra in target homes** | most HA users already run a broker | one Matter controller per home (Apple HomePod / Nest Hub / HA-Matter add-on) | none | none |
+| **Effort to MVP** | ~2 weeks | ~4–6 weeks (Matter SDK + commissioning) | ~4–6 weeks | ~2 days |
+| **Privacy controls** | per-topic + retain policy | Matter fabric isolation + spec-level limits on what's exposable | application-layer | weak |
+| **Certification cost** | none | "Works with HA" free; **CSA Matter certification optional** (~$3 k/year membership for the badge) | HACS review (free) | none |
+| **Test surface in CI** | dockerised mosquitto + schema lint | matter-rs test harness + chip-tool sims | full HA test harness | curl |
+
+**MQTT is primary** because it carries 100% of RuView's differentiated telemetry (pose, HR, BR) which no other path can. **Matter is secondary** because it covers the ~30% subset (presence/count/fall) that matters across the *other 70% of smart-home buyers* who don't run HA. Together they cover the whole market. Webhook (C) gives up too much (no entity discovery, no control plane) and is rejected. HACS (B) is strictly more polished than MQTT but strictly more expensive; revisit after MQTT adoption data is in.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Detailed Design
+
+### 3.1 Entity mapping
+
+Each RuView node becomes one HA **device**. Each capability becomes an **entity** on that device. ESP32 nodes behind a Cognitum Seed appliance are linked via HA's `via_device` field so the topology shows up in the HA UI.
+
+| Capability | HA component | `device_class` | `state_class` | Unit | Icon | Source field (server WS) |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Presence | `binary_sensor` | `occupancy` | — | — | `mdi:motion-sensor` | `edge_vitals.presence` |
+| Person count | `sensor` | — | `measurement` | persons | `mdi:account-group` | `edge_vitals.n_persons` |
+| Breathing rate | `sensor` | — | `measurement` | bpm | `mdi:lungs` | `edge_vitals.breathing_rate_bpm` |
+| Heart rate | `sensor` | — | `measurement` | bpm | `mdi:heart-pulse` | `edge_vitals.heartrate_bpm` |
+| Motion level | `sensor` | — | `measurement` | % | `mdi:run` | `edge_vitals.motion` (0–1 → ×100) |
+| Motion energy | `sensor` | — | `measurement` | (unitless) | `mdi:waveform` | `edge_vitals.motion_energy` |
+| Fall detected | `event` | — | — | — | `mdi:human-fall` | `edge_vitals.fall_detected` |
+| Presence score | `sensor` | — | `measurement` | % | `mdi:gauge` | `edge_vitals.presence_score` (×100) |
+| RSSI | `sensor` | `signal_strength` | `measurement` | dBm | `mdi:wifi` | `edge_vitals.rssi` |
+| Zone occupancy (per zone) | `binary_sensor` | `occupancy` | — | — | `mdi:map-marker` | `sensing_update.zones[*]` |
+| Pose keypoints | `sensor` (JSON attr) | — | — | — | `mdi:human` | `pose_data.keypoints` (opt-in) |
+| Tracked persons (per ID) | `binary_sensor` (dynamic) | `occupancy` | — | — | `mdi:account` | `pose_data.track_id` |
+
+Pose keypoints are intentionally not a first-class HA entity (HA has no 17-keypoint primitive); instead they're exposed as an attribute payload on a `wifi_densepose_<node>_pose` sensor, so power users can template against them but the default HA UI stays clean.
+
+### 3.2 MQTT topic structure
+
+We follow HA's documented `homeassistant/<component>/<object_id>/<entity>/config` discovery convention. Object ID is `wifi_densepose_<node_id>` to namespace cleanly against other devices.
+
+```
+homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/presence/config       (retained, QoS 1)
+homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/presence/state         (not retained, QoS 0)
+homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/presence/availability  (retained, QoS 1)
+
+homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/heart_rate/config            (retained, QoS 1)
+homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/heart_rate/state              (not retained, QoS 0)
+
+homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/breathing_rate/config
+homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/breathing_rate/state
+
+homeassistant/event/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/fall/config                   (retained, QoS 1)
+homeassistant/event/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/fall/state                     (not retained, QoS 1)
+
+ruview/<node_id>/raw/pose                                                  (opt-in, not retained, QoS 0)
+ruview/<node_id>/raw/sensing_update                                        (opt-in, not retained, QoS 0)
+```
+
+The `ruview/<node_id>/raw/*` namespace is **outside** the `homeassistant/` discovery prefix on purpose: it carries the original WebSocket JSON for users who want to consume it directly (Node-RED, Grafana, custom scripts), without HA trying to interpret it as an entity.
+
+### 3.3 Example discovery payloads
+
+**Presence (binary_sensor):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Presence",
+  "unique_id": "wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff_presence",
+  "object_id": "wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff_presence",
+  "state_topic": "homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff/presence/state",
+  "availability_topic": "homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff/presence/availability",
+  "payload_on": "ON",
+  "payload_off": "OFF",
+  "payload_available": "online",
+  "payload_not_available": "offline",
+  "device_class": "occupancy",
+  "qos": 1,
+  "device": {
+    "identifiers": ["wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff"],
+    "name": "RuView node aabbccddeeff",
+    "manufacturer": "ruvnet",
+    "model": "ESP32-S3 CSI node",
+    "sw_version": "v0.6.7",
+    "via_device": "cognitum_seed_1"
+  },
+  "origin": {
+    "name": "wifi-densepose-sensing-server",
+    "sw_version": "0.7.0",
+    "support_url": "https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Heart rate (sensor):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Heart rate",
+  "unique_id": "wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff_heart_rate",
+  "state_topic": "homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff/heart_rate/state",
+  "availability_topic": "homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff/heart_rate/availability",
+  "unit_of_measurement": "bpm",
+  "state_class": "measurement",
+  "icon": "mdi:heart-pulse",
+  "value_template": "{{ value_json.bpm }}",
+  "json_attributes_topic": "homeassistant/sensor/wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff/heart_rate/state",
+  "qos": 0,
+  "device": { "identifiers": ["wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff"] }
+}
+```
+
+State payload published to `.../heart_rate/state`:
+
+```json
+{ "bpm": 68.2, "confidence": 0.91, "ts": "2026-05-23T14:00:00Z" }
+```
+
+**Fall (event):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "Fall detected",
+  "unique_id": "wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff_fall",
+  "state_topic": "homeassistant/event/wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff/fall/state",
+  "event_types": ["fall_detected"],
+  "icon": "mdi:human-fall",
+  "qos": 1,
+  "device": { "identifiers": ["wifi_densepose_aabbccddeeff"] }
+}
+```
+
+State payload (fired once per fall, **not retained**):
+
+```json
+{ "event_type": "fall_detected", "ts": "2026-05-23T14:00:00.123Z", "confidence": 0.87 }
+```
+
+### 3.4 Device-level grouping
+
+- One HA `device` per RuView **node** (ESP32-S3 / S3-Mini / C6, or the host running sensing-server in mock mode).
+- `device.identifiers` = `["wifi_densepose_<node_id>"]` where `node_id` is the MAC-derived ID already in `edge_vitals.node_id`.
+- For nodes behind a **Cognitum Seed**, set `device.via_device = "cognitum_seed_<seed_id>"` so HA renders the topology as a tree (Seed → child nodes).
+- The Cognitum Seed itself appears as a parent device with its own diagnostic entities (uptime, agent health) — published by the seed appliance directly, not by sensing-server.
+
+### 3.5 QoS, retention, and refresh
+
+| Topic | QoS | Retain | Refresh cadence | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `*/config` | 1 | **yes** | on startup + every 600 s | HA expects retained discovery; re-publishing periodically self-heals if HA restarts before our state messages arrive |
+| `*/state` (sensor) | 0 | no | rate-limited per §3.7 | Best-effort; HA can tolerate occasional drops |
+| `*/state` (binary_sensor) | 1 | **yes** | on change only | Last value matters; new HA subscribers should see current state |
+| `*/state` (event) | 1 | no | on event | Falls must not be missed; never retained or HA replays old events |
+| `*/availability` | 1 | **yes** | LWT + 30 s heartbeat | Offline detection |
+| `ruview/*/raw/*` | 0 | no | as-emitted | Raw firehose; consumers opt in |
+
+### 3.6 Availability + Last Will and Testament (LWT)
+
+On connect, sensing-server sets an MQTT LWT on each entity's `availability` topic to `offline` (retained). On successful connect it publishes `online` (retained). A 30-second heartbeat re-publishes `online` so HA can detect zombie sessions.
+
+```
+LWT topic: homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_<node_id>/presence/availability
+LWT payload: offline
+LWT QoS: 1
+LWT retain: true
+```
+
+### 3.7 Bandwidth control + rate limiting
+
+Pose keypoints at 10 fps × 17 keypoints × 3 floats ≈ 4–8 kbit/s per person — fine over LAN, but pathological if a user accidentally routes it to a metered cellular MQTT bridge. Defaults:
+
+| Entity type | Default rate | Configurable | Override flag |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Presence (binary) | on change | yes | — |
+| Person count | 1 Hz | yes | `--mqtt-rate-count=1` |
+| BR / HR | 0.2 Hz (every 5 s) | yes | `--mqtt-rate-vitals=0.2` |
+| Motion level | 1 Hz | yes | `--mqtt-rate-motion=1` |
+| Fall events | on event | no (always immediate) | — |
+| RSSI | 0.1 Hz | yes | `--mqtt-rate-rssi=0.1` |
+| Pose keypoints | **off by default**, 1 Hz when on | yes | `--mqtt-publish-pose --mqtt-rate-pose=1` |
+| Zones | on change | yes | — |
+
+### 3.8 Configuration UX — CLI + env
+
+New CLI flags on `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (gated behind `--mqtt`):
+
+```
+--mqtt                          Enable MQTT publisher (default off)
+--mqtt-host <HOST>              MQTT broker host (default: localhost)
+--mqtt-port <PORT>              MQTT broker port (default: 1883, 8883 if --mqtt-tls)
+--mqtt-username <USER>          MQTT username
+--mqtt-password-env <ENVVAR>    Read password from env var (default: MQTT_PASSWORD)
+--mqtt-client-id <ID>           Client ID (default: wifi-densepose-<hostname>)
+--mqtt-prefix <PREFIX>          Discovery prefix (default: homeassistant)
+--mqtt-tls                      Enable TLS (default off)
+--mqtt-ca-file <PATH>           CA bundle (default: system trust)
+--mqtt-client-cert <PATH>       Client cert for mTLS
+--mqtt-client-key <PATH>        Client key for mTLS
+--mqtt-refresh-secs <N>         Discovery refresh interval (default: 600)
+--mqtt-rate-vitals <HZ>         Vitals publish rate (default: 0.2)
+--mqtt-rate-motion <HZ>         Motion publish rate (default: 1.0)
+--mqtt-rate-count <HZ>          Person count publish rate (default: 1.0)
+--mqtt-rate-rssi <HZ>           RSSI publish rate (default: 0.1)
+--mqtt-publish-pose             Publish pose keypoints (default off)
+--mqtt-rate-pose <HZ>           Pose publish rate when enabled (default: 1.0)
+--privacy-mode                  Strip biometrics (HR/BR/pose) before publish
+```
+
+Env var equivalents follow `RUVIEW_MQTT_HOST`, `RUVIEW_MQTT_USERNAME`, etc., so Docker / systemd users don't have to wire long arg lists. Configuration is loaded in the order: CLI > env > defaults.
+
+### 3.9 TLS + auth
+
+- **Recommended**: mTLS on a dedicated VLAN with the broker pinned to a CA we issue per Cognitum Seed appliance.
+- **Acceptable**: username + password over TLS to a public broker (e.g. user's existing Mosquitto add-on inside HA).
+- **Rejected**: plaintext on any network shared with non-trusted devices. Sensing-server logs a `WARN` if `--mqtt` is enabled without `--mqtt-tls` and the broker is not `localhost`.
+
+### 3.10 Privacy mode
+
+`--privacy-mode` strips biometric + biometric-derivable channels before any MQTT publish, regardless of subscriber. Discovery messages for those entities are **never published** in this mode (HA never sees them exist).
+
+| Channel | Default | `--privacy-mode` |
+|---|---|---|
+| Presence | published | **published** |
+| Person count | published | **published** |
+| Motion level | published | **published** |
+| Zone occupancy | published | **published** |
+| RSSI | published | **published** |
+| Breathing rate | published | **stripped** |
+| Heart rate | published | **stripped** |
+| Fall events | published | **published** (safety > privacy) |
+| Pose keypoints | off by default | **stripped** (cannot be force-enabled) |
+
+This implements the ADR-106 primitive-isolation contract at the integration boundary: HR / BR / pose are biometric-class signals and must not leak to an unconstrained MQTT broker without explicit operator opt-in.
+
+### 3.11 Matter Bridge (HA-FABRIC)
+
+The Matter path runs **in the same `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` process** behind a `--matter` feature flag, gated independently of `--mqtt`. The bridge presents itself to Matter controllers as a **Bridged Devices Aggregator** (per Matter Core Spec §9.13) with one Bridged Device endpoint per RuView node, exposing the standardised subset of capabilities. Biometrics and pose are **not exposed** over Matter — they have no spec-defined clusters and cannot be soundly represented (covering them in `Generic Sensor` would force every controller to render them as nameless numbers).
+
+#### 3.11.1 Matter device-type mapping
+
+| RuView capability | Matter cluster | Endpoint device type | Source field |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Presence | `OccupancySensing` (0x0406) | `OccupancySensor` (0x0107) | `edge_vitals.presence` |
+| Motion (boolean above threshold) | `OccupancySensing` (0x0406) | (same endpoint) | `edge_vitals.motion > 0.1` |
+| Fall event | `Switch` (0x003B) `MultiPressComplete` event | `GenericSwitch` (0x000F) | `edge_vitals.fall_detected` (one momentary press = one fall) |
+| Person count | `OccupancySensing` extension attribute (vendor-specific 0xFFF1_0001) | (same endpoint) | `edge_vitals.n_persons` |
+| Zone occupancy | one `OccupancySensor` endpoint per zone | (multiple endpoints) | `sensing_update.zones[*]` |
+| RSSI / motion energy / presence score / breathing rate / heart rate / pose | **not exposed over Matter** | — | (MQTT only) |
+
+The vendor-specific person-count attribute uses RuView's CSA-assigned vendor ID (open question §9.9). Controllers that don't understand the vendor extension still see the standard `OccupancySensing.Occupancy` boolean — graceful degradation.
+
+#### 3.11.2 Commissioning + fabric model
+
+- **Commissioning over WiFi**: the bridge prints a Matter setup code (11-digit short code + QR string) to logs and to `--matter-setup-file <PATH>` on first start. User scans with Apple Home / Google Home / HA Matter integration.
+- **No Thread radio required**: sensing-server runs on hosts (Pi 5, x86, Cognitum Seed) that have WiFi but no 802.15.4. Matter-over-WiFi is sufficient. Thread support is explicitly out of scope until ESP32-C6 firmware grows a Matter stack (separate ADR; see §7).
+- **Multi-admin / multi-fabric**: the bridge accepts multiple commissioning sessions so a single node can be paired into Apple Home **and** Home Assistant **and** Google Home concurrently — Matter's `OperationalCredentials` cluster handles fabric isolation.
+- **Resetting commissioning**: a `--matter-reset` CLI flag wipes stored fabric credentials so a node can be repaired against a new controller.
+
+#### 3.11.3 SDK choice (open in §9, sketched here)
+
+Three viable Rust paths:
+
+| Option | Pros | Cons |
+|---|---|---|
+| **`matter-rs`** (project-chip/rs-matter) — pure-Rust SDK | No FFI, no C++ build chain, fits our Rust-only crate policy, MIT-licensed | Less mature than C++ chip-tool; certification path less proven |
+| **`project-chip/connectedhomeip`** via Rust FFI bindings | Reference implementation, every controller tested against it, certification-ready | Drags in CMake, C++ toolchain, ~50 MB of vendored code; clashes with our cargo-first build |
+| **External Matter bridge process** (separate ESPHome-like daemon) | Decouples Rust crate from Matter SDK churn | Operational complexity; two processes to deploy |
+
+**Tentative**: `matter-rs` for v0.7.0 ship; fall back to chip-tool-FFI if cert blockers emerge. Final decision deferred to P7 spike.
+
+#### 3.11.4 Limitations to document upfront
+
+These are **deliberate**, not bugs — users must see them in `docs/integrations/matter.md` before pairing:
+
+- **No HR, BR, pose, RSSI over Matter.** Matter has no clusters for these. Use MQTT for biometric / detailed telemetry.
+- **Fall events are one-shot.** A fall fires a momentary switch press; controllers must subscribe to the event (most do).
+- **Person count is vendor-extension.** Apple Home / Google Home will show occupancy on/off; only HA and SmartThings (with custom handlers) will surface the count.
+- **One fabric controller is "primary."** Automations split across fabrics can race; users should keep heavy automation logic in one controller (typically HA).
+- **No video / image data ever.** Matter spec forbids it on these device types and we wouldn't expose it anyway.
+
+#### 3.11.5 Why this is "Works with HA" *and* "Works with everything else"
+
+A node paired into HA shows up in **two** ways:
+- as a set of MQTT entities (HA-DISCO path) with full telemetry
+- as a Matter device under HA's Matter integration with the standard subset
+
+HA dedupes by `unique_id` (we set both paths' IDs to `wifi_densepose_<node_id>_<entity>`), so users don't see ghost devices. The Matter device is the one Apple Home or Google Home will see if the user also pairs into those — same physical node, three controllers, no duplication. This is the architectural reason for adopting both protocols rather than picking one.
+
+### 3.12 Semantic automation primitives (HA-MIND)
+
+Raw signals are not the product. Customers don't want to *write a Node-RED flow that thresholds breathing rate at night to infer sleep*. They want a `binary_sensor.bedroom_someone_sleeping` they can wire directly into a "dim hallway light at 10 % if anyone's asleep" automation. Same for fall *risk*, distress, room activity, elderly inactivity, meeting-in-progress, bathroom occupancy. This is the inference layer that turns RuView from "RF sensing" into **ambient intelligence infrastructure** — and it has to ship as first-class HA entities and Matter events, not as a developer SDK.
+
+#### 3.12.1 Catalog of inferred primitives (v1)
+
+Each primitive is a fused state derived from one or more raw channels with a small finite-state machine. Inference runs inside `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (same place MQTT publication runs), gated behind `--semantic` (default on; can be disabled). Each primitive has a confidence score and an explanation field so HA users can debug why it fired.
+
+| Primitive | Inputs (raw) | Output kind | Default true-condition | Hysteresis / refractory |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| **Someone sleeping** | presence + low motion (<5 % for ≥300 s) + breathing rate 8–20 bpm + low HR variability | `binary_sensor` (occupancy) | all conditions hold simultaneously | enters after 5 min; exits when motion > 15 % for ≥30 s |
+| **Possible distress** | sustained elevated HR (>1.5× rolling baseline for ≥60 s) + agitated motion + no fall | `binary_sensor` (problem) + `event` | confidence ≥ 0.75 | latch for 5 min after exit |
+| **Room active** | presence + motion > 10 % for ≥30 s in any 5-min window | `binary_sensor` (occupancy) | window-rolling | exits on 10 min idle |
+| **Elderly inactivity anomaly** | no motion + presence stable for > N× rolling daily median idle (default 2×) | `binary_sensor` (problem) + `event` | model-personalised | per-resident baseline; alerts max 1×/day |
+| **Meeting in progress** | person count ≥ 2 + sustained low-amplitude motion (sitting) + speech-band micro-motion if `speech_band` cog installed | `binary_sensor` (occupancy) | ≥2 ppl + ≥10 min | exits when person count < 2 for 2 min |
+| **Bathroom occupied** | presence true in zone tagged `bathroom` | `binary_sensor` (occupancy) | zone+presence | privacy-mode keeps this enabled (it's not biometric) |
+| **Fall risk elevated** | recent near-fall (sharp acceleration without confirmed fall) OR gait instability score > threshold | `sensor` (0–100) + `event` on threshold cross | model-derived | 24-hour window |
+| **Bed exit (overnight)** | "someone sleeping" → presence transitions out of bed-tagged zone between 22:00–06:00 local | `event` | edge-triggered | one event per exit |
+| **No movement (safety check)** | presence true + motion < 1 % for ≥ N minutes (default 30) | `binary_sensor` (problem) + `event` | duration threshold | clears on motion |
+| **Multi-room transition** | track_id continuous across zones within 10 s | `event` (`who_went_from_to`) | edge-triggered | per-track event |
+
+Catalog v2 (deferred): "child playing", "pet vs human", "agitation gradient", "circadian phase". Owned by an ADR-1xx follow-on after the v1 primitives have field data.
+
+#### 3.12.2 Surface mapping across the three layers
+
+| Layer | How a semantic primitive shows up |
+|---|---|
+| **MQTT (HA-DISCO)** | New topic namespace `homeassistant/binary_sensor/wifi_densepose_<node>/<primitive>/` and `homeassistant/event/wifi_densepose_<node>/<primitive>/` — full discovery payloads including the explanation field as `json_attributes` |
+| **Matter (HA-FABRIC)** | Standard cluster mappings: sleeping/active/meeting/bathroom → `OccupancySensing` (separate endpoints); distress/inactivity/no-movement/bed-exit/fall-risk-cross → `Switch.MultiPressComplete` events on dedicated `GenericSwitch` endpoints; fall-risk score → vendor-extension attribute on the bridge endpoint |
+| **Home Assistant automations** | Ship 8 starter blueprints in P5: "Notify on possible distress", "Wake-up routine on bed exit", "Dim hallway on someone sleeping", "Alert on elderly inactivity anomaly", "Lights on for meeting in progress", "Bathroom fan on while occupied", "Escalate on fall risk crossing 70", "Auto-arm security when room not active" |
+| **Apple Home scenes** | Each `OccupancySensor` endpoint and each `GenericSwitch` event triggers Apple Home scenes via Matter — user picks "When *bedroom someone sleeping* is on, run *night mode*" from the Apple Home UI directly. No HA required for this path |
+
+#### 3.12.3 Why these specific primitives
+
+These eight cover the **top automation requests from the smart-home market** without needing video or wearables:
+
+- **Healthcare / aging-in-place** — "elderly inactivity anomaly", "fall risk elevated", "possible distress", "no movement (safety check)", "bed exit (overnight)" — directly map to AAL (Active and Assisted Living) device-class expectations
+- **Convenience automation** — "someone sleeping", "room active", "meeting in progress", "bathroom occupied" — the four highest-volume HA forum-requested binary states
+- **Privacy** — none of these require biometric *values* to be published, only the inferred *states*. A `--privacy-mode` deployment can keep semantic primitives ON and still strip HR/BR/pose, because the inference happens server-side and only the state crosses the wire
+
+#### 3.12.4 Inference quality contract
+
+Each primitive ships with:
+- A **published precision/recall** on a held-out test set built from ADR-079 paired captures + synthetic stress scenarios — committed to `docs/integrations/semantic-primitives-metrics.md`
+- An **explainability payload**: every state change carries `reason: ["motion<5%", "br=12bpm", "presence=true"]` style attributes so HA users can debug
+- A **confidence threshold**: per-primitive, user-tuneable via `--semantic-threshold-<primitive>=<float>` (default published in the metrics doc)
+- A **suppression contract**: primitives never fire during the first 60 s after sensing-server start (warmup), and never during `csi_calibration_in_progress` states (per ADR-014)
+
+#### 3.12.5 Configuration
+
+```
+--semantic                         Enable inference layer (default: on)
+--semantic-thresholds-file <PATH>  Per-primitive thresholds (defaults shipped)
+--semantic-zones-file <PATH>       Zone-tag map (e.g. {"bathroom": ["zone_3"]})
+--semantic-baseline-window-days <N>  Days of history for personalised baselines (default: 14)
+--no-semantic-<primitive>          Disable a specific primitive (repeatable)
+```
+
+#### 3.12.6 What this changes architecturally
+
+Inference lives in a new module `semantic_inference.rs` alongside `mqtt_publisher.rs` and `matter_bridge.rs`. It subscribes to the same `tokio::broadcast` channel everything else does, runs each primitive's FSM, and emits **two output streams**:
+
+1. A `SemanticState` event on a new broadcast channel that MQTT and Matter publishers both subscribe to (so the same inference drives both surfaces without duplication)
+2. Append-only `semantic_events.jsonl` log under `--data-dir` for offline analysis + ADR-079 paired-capture supervision
+
+This means: **adding a new primitive is one file change**. No MQTT schema rev, no Matter cluster rev — just add the FSM, register it, and discovery/state publish flow through both surfaces automatically.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Implementation phases
+
+| Phase | Scope | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| **P1** | Add `mqtt` feature flag to `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` Cargo.toml (depends on `rumqttc = "0.24"`). Wire CLI flags (§3.8) into `cli.rs`. No publishing yet, just config plumbing + unit tests on flag parsing. | pending |
+| **P2** | HA discovery message emitter. New module `mqtt_discovery.rs`. Emits all entity `config` topics on connect + every `--mqtt-refresh-secs`. Schema-validated against HA's published JSON schema. | pending |
+| **P3** | State publication. Subscribe to internal `tokio::broadcast` channel (the one `tx.send(json)` writes to on line 3983 of `main.rs`). Translate `edge_vitals` / `sensing_update` / `pose_data` messages into per-entity state payloads. Apply rate-limit + privacy-mode filters. | pending |
+| **P4** | Integration tests: dockerised mosquitto in CI (extend `.github/workflows/firmware-qemu.yml` pattern), schema-validate every emitted config against HA's `homeassistant/components/mqtt` JSON schemas (pin to a tested HA version). Add a smoke test that brings up sensing-server in `--source mock --mqtt`, subscribes with `paho-mqtt` test client, asserts on entity creation. | pending |
+| **P4.5** | **Semantic inference layer (HA-MIND).** New module `semantic_inference.rs` implementing the 10 v1 primitives from §3.12. Output broadcast channel consumed by both MQTT publisher (P3) and Matter bridge (P8). Per-primitive precision/recall baselines published to `docs/integrations/semantic-primitives-metrics.md`. Unit tests per FSM + integration tests via replay of ADR-079 paired captures. | pending |
+| **P5** | Docs: new `docs/integrations/home-assistant.md` with screenshots of the HA UI after auto-discovery completes, example HA dashboard YAML (Lovelace card configs), 8 starter blueprints from §3.12.2 (distress notify, wake routine, hallway dim, elderly anomaly alert, meeting lights, bathroom fan, fall-risk escalate, auto-arm security), and the raw-channel example automations: "turn on hall light when presence ON", "send notification on fall_detected event", "log HR/BR to InfluxDB". | pending |
+| **P6** | Ship `--mqtt` in the next sensing-server release (target: v0.7.0). Demo end-to-end on `cognitum-v0` against a Mosquitto add-on running on a Home Assistant OS install. Update README hardware-options table with "Works with Home Assistant" badge. | pending |
+| **P7** | Matter Bridge spike: build a throwaway prototype with `matter-rs` exposing one `OccupancySensor` endpoint + one `GenericSwitch` for fall. Pair against Apple Home, Google Home, and HA's Matter integration. Decision gate: if pairing works on all three, proceed to P8; if blocked, switch to chip-tool FFI and re-spike. | pending |
+| **P8** | Matter Bridge production. Implement `--matter`, `--matter-setup-file`, `--matter-reset`, `--matter-vendor-id`, `--matter-product-id` CLI flags. Aggregator + Bridged Devices for all RuView nodes; per-zone occupancy endpoints; fall as `MultiPressComplete` event; person count as vendor-extension attribute. Integration tests via chip-tool sim. | pending |
+| **P9** | Multi-controller validation. Pair one Cognitum Seed + 3 child ESP32 nodes simultaneously into HA, Apple Home, and Google Home. Verify presence flips on all three within 1 s of a real motion change. Document the multi-admin flow in `docs/integrations/matter.md`. | pending |
+| **P10** | CSA Matter certification path (optional, ADR-1xx follow-up). Decide cost vs marketing value of the official "Matter-certified" badge ($3 k/year CSA membership + per-product test fees). Sketch only — production decision deferred. | pending |
+
+Each phase ends with a checkbox PR. The ADR is updated with actual artifacts (commit hashes, screenshots, witness bundle entries) as phases land. **P1–P6 (MQTT) and P7–P10 (Matter) run in parallel after P6 lands** — they share no code, so a Matter regression cannot break the MQTT path and vice versa.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Consequences
+
+### 5.1 Wins
+
+- Zero-code UX for HA users — discovery handles the entire onboarding.
+- **Cross-ecosystem reach via Matter** — Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings users can adopt RuView without ever running HA, expanding our addressable market by ~4×.
+- Decouples RuView from its own UI; users can build their own dashboards in HA / Grafana / Node-RED on the same MQTT firehose.
+- Adds a `--privacy-mode` flag that gives operators a single-knob biometric strip for compliance contexts.
+- Matter fabric isolation is a privacy win by construction — biometrics are out-of-spec for the exposed clusters, so a buggy controller can't accidentally exfiltrate them.
+- Webhook + future HACS path stay open (§6) — no lock-in.
+- Establishes our presence in the HA ecosystem AND the broader Matter ecosystem (community add-on lists, blueprints, forum recipes, App Store / Play Store visibility via Apple Home / Google Home device listings).
+
+### 5.2 Costs
+
+- New runtime dependency (`rumqttc`) in `wifi-densepose-sensing-server`. Mitigated by feature-flag (`mqtt`), default off; users who don't enable `--mqtt` pay zero binary or runtime cost.
+- **Matter SDK dependency** (`matter-rs` tentatively) gated behind `--matter` feature flag. Adds ~5 MB to release binary when enabled; zero cost when disabled. Tracking CSA spec churn is a real ongoing cost.
+- One more thing to maintain across HA breaking changes. HA commits to the `homeassistant/<component>/.../config` schema being stable (their published policy), but historically they have evolved fields like `availability_topic` → `availability` (list-of). We'll pin to a tested HA version per release and call out tested-against in `docs/integrations/home-assistant.md`.
+- **Matter spec churn** — Matter 1.0 → 1.3 added device types and changed cluster IDs. We pin to a tested Matter spec version per release. Annual re-validation overhead.
+- Requires CI infra: a mosquitto container in workflow, schema-validation against HA schemas, **and** a chip-tool simulator for Matter pairing tests (need to vendor or fetch).
+- CSA membership ($3 k/year) is required to obtain a permanent vendor ID; until then we use the development VID `0xFFF1`. Production deployment past P9 requires the membership decision (§9.9).
+
+### 5.3 Verification
+
+Acceptance criteria are §8. Beyond those, this ADR is "Accepted" once P6 ships and at least one external user has reported a working HA install via the public issue tracker.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Alternatives considered
+
+### 6.A Custom HA integration (HACS) — *follow-on, not primary*
+
+Rough sketch:
+
+- Separate Python repo (proposed name: `ruvnet/hass-wifi-densepose`).
+- Talks to sensing-server's existing WebSocket at `/ws/sensing` and REST at `/api/*`.
+- Config-flow UI in HA: user enters server URL + bearer token; integration discovers entities.
+- Distribution via HACS (https://hacs.xyz), requires HACS review + acceptance.
+
+**Effort estimate:** ~4–6 weeks (vs ~2 weeks for §2 MQTT path). Adds a Python codebase to maintain in a Rust-first org. Pays off in two scenarios:
+
+1. Users who run HA but don't run an MQTT broker (rare but exists).
+2. Users who want sensing-server features that don't map cleanly to MQTT (e.g. live pose video preview).
+
+**Plan:** revisit after P6 lands and we have real adoption data on the MQTT path. If MQTT covers 80%+ of installs, HACS becomes a nice-to-have. If not, it becomes ADR-1xx follow-up.
+
+### 6.B Local-push REST webhook — *rejected*
+
+- sensing-server `POST`s to HA's webhook endpoint (`/api/webhook/<id>`).
+- Trivial to implement (~2 days).
+
+Rejected because:
+
+- One-way only — no `set_state` / arm / disarm path back.
+- No entity discovery — user has to manually create input_booleans / sensors / template_sensors in HA YAML.
+- No availability / LWT — sensing-server going offline is invisible to HA.
+- Fails the "plug-and-play" bar that #574 / #760 set.
+
+Documented here so future readers know we considered it.
+
+### 6.C mDNS discovery (#574) — *complementary, not competing*
+
+mDNS / Zeroconf lets HA (or any local client) discover sensing-server's IP without manual configuration. It's orthogonal to MQTT: we should add it (already tracked in #574) so the user doesn't have to type the broker host either. mDNS resolves *where the broker is*; MQTT auto-discovery resolves *what entities to create*. Both ship; neither blocks the other.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Risks
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Impact | Mitigation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Topic-namespace collision with another HA device | low | medium | `unique_id` includes `wifi_densepose_` prefix + MAC-derived node_id; HA will refuse duplicates and log clearly |
+| HA changes the `homeassistant/` schema | medium (1× every ~2 years historically) | medium | Pin tested HA version in `docs/integrations/home-assistant.md`; CI runs schema validation against the pinned version |
+| Bandwidth blowup from pose keypoints | medium | low (LAN) / high (metered link) | Pose publishing is **off by default**; rate-limited when on; users hit a clear `WARN` if they enable pose without explicit rate cap |
+| Privacy regression — biometrics leaked to a public broker | medium | high | `--privacy-mode` strips them at source; WARN if `--mqtt` enabled without `--mqtt-tls` on a non-localhost broker; never publish HR / BR / pose discovery in privacy mode |
+| Cognitum Seed firmware footprint (if we ever push MQTT into the ESP32 path) | low | medium | Out of scope for this ADR — MQTT lives in sensing-server only. ESP32 keeps the lean UDP/WS path. If we later add MQTT to firmware, it's ADR-1xx with its own size budget per ADR-110 |
+| Broker compromise (bad actor on the network gets read access to MQTT) | low | high | mTLS recommendation in §3.9; `--privacy-mode` for high-risk deployments |
+| HA-side cardinality explosion from per-track-id binary_sensors | medium | low | Cap dynamic person entities at 10; old ones are removed via discovery `payload=""` (HA delete-entity convention) |
+| **Matter SDK (`matter-rs`) immaturity blocks cert** | medium | medium | P7 spike validates pairing on three controllers before P8 production work; fall back to chip-tool FFI if blocked |
+| **Matter spec adds vitals device types**, our vendor-extension attributes become non-standard | low (3+ years out) | low | Vendor-extension attributes are opt-in for controllers; migration to standard cluster IDs is a one-version bump when the spec lands |
+| **Multi-fabric races** (HA, Apple, Google all see the same node and fire conflicting automations) | medium | medium | Document the multi-admin guidance in `docs/integrations/matter.md`: pick one primary controller for automations, others for visibility |
+| **Apple Home / Google Home rendering misrepresents** RuView (e.g. shows generic "Sensor") | medium | low | Set rich `VendorName` / `ProductName` / `ProductLabel` in BasicInformation cluster; ship a Matter App icon (per CSA brand guidelines) once vendor ID is real |
+| **CSA membership cost** ($3 k/y) is a recurring spend with uncertain ROI | low (decision deferred to P10) | medium | Ship using dev VID `0xFFF1` through P9; commit to membership only after adoption data justifies it |
+

+```
+
+All ten must pass before the ADR moves from Proposed → Accepted. Tests 1–7 cover MQTT (P1–P6); tests 8–10 cover Matter (P7–P9). Tests can be re-run incrementally as each phase lands.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Resolved decisions (maintainer ACK 2026-05-23)
+
+All 13 questions resolved by maintainer @ruv on 2026-05-23. Status: **ACCEPTED**.
+
+**Decision principle (canonical):** preserve clean protocols, avoid firmware bloat, avoid fake semantics, ship MQTT first, validate Matter second.
+
+### 9.A MQTT path (P1–P6)
+
+1. **Broker.** ✅ **Mosquitto as default.** Mention EMQX and VerneMQ as advanced options in `docs/integrations/home-assistant.md`.
+2. **Discovery prefix.** ✅ **Ship `homeassistant`** (HA's default). `--mqtt-prefix` remains overridable for users with custom HA setups.
+3. **HACS repo name.** ✅ **`ruvnet/hass-wifi-densepose`** — wired into the `support_url` field of every discovery payload's `origin` block from P1.
+4. **Sample blueprints.** ✅ **Ship 3 starter blueprints in P5.** Selected from §3.12.2 list — final three picked at P5 start, biased toward highest customer-pull primitives.
+5. **TLS default.** ✅ **WARN now, hard-fail non-localhost plaintext in v0.8.0.** Sensing-server logs a `WARN` if `--mqtt` enabled without `--mqtt-tls` on a non-localhost broker. v0.8.0 promotes to hard fail (exit non-zero) once docs cover the CA setup path.
+6. **`node_friendly_name`.** ✅ **NVS / config only.** No ADR-039 packet change. Sensing-server resolves the friendly name from local config and injects into MQTT/Matter device labels.
+7. **Pose keypoint schema.** ✅ **COCO 17-keypoint order.** Index → joint name mapping documented in `docs/integrations/home-assistant.md` and re-exported as `wifi_densepose_core::pose::COCO17`.
+8. **Multi-node aggregation.** ✅ **4 children + 1 parent via `via_device`.** Easier to debug; matches §3.4.
+
+### 9.B Matter path (P7–P10)
+
+9. **Matter vendor ID.** ✅ **Dev VID `0xFFF1` through P9.** CSA membership decision gate at P10 (deferred; sketched only).
+10. **Matter SDK.** ✅ **Start with `matter-rs`.** Fall back to chip-tool FFI only if cert blockers emerge in P7 spike.
+11. **Matter Thread.** ✅ **Future ADR.** ADR-115 stays WiFi-only on the server side. Thread support from ESP32-C6 firmware is a separate ADR after C6 stabilises (post-ADR-110 P8).
+12. **Fall event mapping.** ✅ **`Switch.MultiPressComplete`.** Cleaner semantics for controllers; matches Apple Home / Google Home rendering expectations.
+13. **Person count.** ✅ **Vendor extension.** Do not kludge into fake endpoints. Apple Home / Google Home will show `Occupancy: ON/OFF` only — that's honest. HA and SmartThings will surface the count via the vendor-extension attribute.
+
+### 9.C Open-after-9 (new questions raised post-ACK)
+
+Empty as of 2026-05-23. New questions discovered during implementation will be filed here, ACK'd by maintainer, and dated.

+| **Tracking issue** | TBD — file under RuView issue tracker once research dossier lands |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+ADR-115 shipped the Home Assistant + Matter integration as a **`--mqtt` flag on `wifi-densepose-sensing-server`** — a Rust binary that runs on a Pi / Linux box, consumes UDP frames from the ESP32 fleet, and publishes MQTT for any Home Assistant install to discover. That works, but it makes HA+Matter a *configuration of the aggregator*, not an *installable artifact* a Cognitum Seed user can drop into their existing fleet.
+
+The Cognitum Seed already has a [105-cog catalog](https://seed.cognitum.one/store) — packaged Seed apps (`cog-pose-estimation`, `cog-quantum-vitals`, `cog-person-matching`, etc.) that anyone can install from `app-registry.json`. **There is no `cog-ha-matter` yet.** That's the gap this ADR closes.
+
+The cog packaging precedent is ADR-101 (`cog-pose-estimation`) which ships signed aarch64 + x86_64 binaries on GCS with a `pose_v1.safetensors` weight blob — same shape we'd want for the HA cog.
+
+### 1.1 Why a cog, not just the existing flag?
+
+| Path | Distribution | Discovery | Update | Witness | Local AI |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `--mqtt` on `sensing-server` | manual install of the Rust binary | none | manual | none | external |
+| **`cog-ha-matter` Seed cog** | `app-registry.json` listing, one-click install | mDNS / cog browser | OTA via cog runtime | Ed25519 witness chain | local ruvllm + RuVector |
+
+The cog ships HA+Matter as a first-class Seed feature — same UX as installing a pose estimator or person matcher.
+
+### 1.2 What this ADR is *not*
+
+- Not a deprecation of the `--mqtt` flag on sensing-server. The flag stays for Pi / Linux deployments without a Seed; the cog is the Seed-native option.
+- Not a port of HA-MIND / HA-DISCO logic to a different language. The Rust crate already exists; the cog *wraps* it as a Seed-installable artifact + adds Seed-specific surfaces (witness, RuVector, ruvllm-driven thresholds).
+- Not a Matter SDK ship. ADR-115 §9.10 deferred the matter-rs SDK wiring to v0.7.1; this ADR continues that deferral and focuses on the *cog packaging* + *first-class Seed integration*, with Matter Bridge mode shipping in v0.8 once the SDK is ready.
+
+## 2. Decision (provisional — to be refined by the research dossier)
+
+Build **`cog-ha-matter`** as a Cognitum Seed cog with these surfaces:
+
+### 2.1 Core entity surface (unchanged from ADR-115)
+
+The cog republishes the same 21 entities per node (11 raw + 10 semantic primitives) over MQTT auto-discovery, so HA installations behave identically whether the source is a Seed cog or an external sensing-server.
+
+### 2.2 Seed-native enhancements
+
+- **Self-contained MQTT broker (optional)** — if the user doesn't already run mosquitto, the cog can host an embedded broker on `cognitum-seed.local:1883` and act as the HA endpoint directly.
+- **mDNS service advertisement** — `_ruview-ha._tcp` so HA's discovery integration finds the Seed without manual config.
+- **RuVector-backed semantic-primitive thresholds** — instead of static `semantic-thresholds.yaml`, the cog learns per-home thresholds via a SONA-adapted RuVector model (matches the Seed's local-first AI story).
+- **Ed25519 witness chain** — every state transition logged with a Seed signature so care-home / regulated deployments can audit decisions.
+- **OTA firmware coordination** — the cog manages C6 firmware updates for ESP32-C6 nodes in the mesh (ADR-110 substrate).
+
+### 2.3 Matter dimensions (depend on research findings)
+
+The research dossier covers (a) Matter Bridge vs Matter Device mode, (b) Thread Border Router on the Seed's ESP32-S3 (if feasible), (c) CSA certification path, (d) which Matter device classes map cleanly to which entities. **Decision deferred** until the dossier lands; this ADR will be updated in §3 with the specific Matter feature set.
+
+### 2.4 Multi-Seed federation
+
+Multiple Seeds in adjacent rooms coordinate via:
+- ESP-NOW mesh (ADR-110 substrate) for time alignment
+- mDNS for service discovery
+- Witness chain replication for cross-Seed event provenance
+
+The federation model is the natural extension of ADR-110's mesh substrate into the application layer. Specifically: ADR-110 gives us ≤100 µs cross-board sync; this ADR uses that to deduplicate cross-Seed events (one fall, one alert) and reconstruct multi-room transitions (one occupant, room A → hallway → room B).
+
+## 3. Research dossier findings (P1 complete)
+
+Full dossier: [`docs/research/ADR-116-ha-matter-cog-research.md`](../research/ADR-116-ha-matter-cog-research.md). The eight research questions are now answered:
+
+1. **Matter Bridge vs Matter Root** — Matter 1.4 introduced `OccupancySensor (0x0107)` with `RFSensing` feature flag on cluster `0x0406` (revision 5 in Matter 1.4). That's the correct device class for WiFi-CSI sensing — no health/vitals cluster exists in Matter 1.4.2 and won't soon. **Seed acts as Bridge** with N dynamic OccupancySensor endpoints, **not Commissioner** (the C6 sensing nodes stay Accessories only — 320 KB SRAM no PSRAM rules out commissioning).
+2. **Thread Border Router** — ESP32-C6 single-chip TBR confirmed working; `CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_BORDER_ROUTER=y` is the only config step. ADR-110's `c6_timesync.c` already initialises 802.15.4 — TBR is a Kconfig flag away. Real value: HA's Improv-style commissioning works without a separate Thread border router box.
+3. **HACS value-add** — config flow (UI setup wizard), Repairs API (structured error cards), re-authentication, diagnostics download, typed service actions (`set_privacy_mode`, `calibrate_zone`), i18n translations. **Bronze is the minimum bar; Gold (repairs + diagnostics + reconfiguration) is the target.** Start from `hacs.integration_blueprint` template.
+4. **CSA certification** — ~$30-42k first year ($22.5k membership + $10-19k ATL lab fees). **Skippable for v1** by publishing as "Works with HA" instead. CSA re-evaluate at v0.9+ after HACS adoption data lands.
+5. **Cog RAM budget** — 128 MB RAM / 15 % CPU on the Seed appliance (Pi 5 + Hailo-10 variant has more headroom). 10 KB INT8 semantic-primitive classifier fits without PSRAM. Long-lived supervised process with capability scopes `network.mqtt + network.matter + api.ruview_vitals`.
+6. **ruvllm + RuVector latency** — `ruvllm-esp32` v0.3.3 confirms SONA self-optimising adaptation under 100 µs per query. 8→10 INT8 classifier ~10 KB quantised. Per-home threshold tuning via HA thumbs-up/thumbs-down feedback as LoRA-style gradient steps — closes the top user complaint (false positives) without cloud round-trips.
+7. **HIPAA / FDA** — FDA January 2026 General Wellness guidance explicitly classifies HR / sleep / activity-anomaly alerts as **wellness devices** (outside FDA jurisdiction) when marketed without diagnostic claims. Frame fall detection as **"activity anomaly notification"** not "fall diagnosis". `--privacy-mode` audit-only tier (no MQTT state messages, only SHA-256 digests on-Seed) creates a technical PHI barrier. `OccupancySensor (0x0107)` device class keeps the product in the same regulatory category as a smart motion sensor.
+8. **Competitor moat** — Aqara FP300 (Nov 2025): 5 entities, no person count, no vitals, no fall detection. TOMMY: zones only, no vitals, closed-source, paywalled. ESPectre: motion only. **RuView's differentiation** — HR/BR + 17-keypoint pose + 10 semantic primitives + witness chain + SONA adaptation — has no competitor equivalent.
+
+## 4. Recommended v1 scope (from dossier §8)
+
+Ranked by build cost × user impact:
+
+| # | Feature | Cost | Impact | Phase |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | **`--privacy-mode` audit-only tier** (no MQTT state, SHA-256 digests on-Seed) | ~1 week | Closes care / GDPR deployments | P3 (this cog) |
+| 2 | **Seed cog manifest + Ed25519 signing + store listing** | ~1-2 weeks | Enables one-click distribution | P2 + P8 (this cog) |
+| 3 | **Local SONA fine-tuning loop** (HA feedback → LoRA gradient steps) | ~2-3 weeks | Reduces false positives, closes #1 user complaint | P5 (this cog) |
+| 4 | **HACS gold-tier integration** (config flow + repairs + diagnostics) | ~4-6 weeks | Removes MQTT prerequisite for mainstream users | P9 (separate repo `hass-wifi-densepose`) |
+| 5 | **Matter Bridge with OccupancySensor + dynamic endpoints** | ~6-8 weeks | Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa native | **v0.8** dedicated sprint (after HACS adoption data) |
+| 6 | **Embedded MQTT broker (rumqttd) inside the cog** | ~1 week | "Works without external broker" but every HA install already has mosquitto / built-in | **v0.7** deferred — adds ~2 MB binary + ACL config surface for marginal user benefit. Dossier ranking did not include this in the prioritised v1 scope. |
+
+## 4. Implementation phases
+

+|---|---|---|
+| **P1** | Research dossier ([`docs/research/ADR-116-ha-matter-cog-research.md`](../research/ADR-116-ha-matter-cog-research.md)) | ✅ **done** — 8 sections, 30+ citations, v1 scope ranked |

+| **P3** | Wrap existing ADR-115 MQTT publisher as cog entry point | ✅ **wiring done** — `main.rs` boots ADR-115's `publisher::spawn` via `runtime::spawn_publisher` thin wrapper, holds a long-lived `broadcast::Sender<VitalsSnapshot>`, awaits Ctrl-C. Live-handle test green without a broker. Next (P3.5): subscribe to sensing-server `/v1/snapshot` WS and republish into the channel. |
+| **P4** | Seed-native enhancements (mDNS, witness; embedded broker deferred) | ✅ **shipped** — mDNS half: record-builder + ServiceInfo conversion + live responder wired into `main.rs` (HA auto-discovery on `_ruview-ha._tcp` works out of the box, `--no-mdns` flag for restrictive networks). Witness half: hash-chain + JSONL + file persistence + chain-level verify + Ed25519 signing. **Embedded rumqttd broker deferred to v0.7** per dossier §8 ranking — not in the prioritised v1 scope; v1 ships with external-broker only (mosquitto or HA's built-in broker). See §4 v1 scope table. |

+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+### 1.1 What the pip package is today
+
+`wifi-densepose` v1.1.0 was published to PyPI on **2025-06-07** (two releases the same
+day: 1.0.0 at 13:24 UTC, 1.1.0 at 17:02 UTC). Both wheels carry the tag
+`py3-none-any` — no compiled extension, no platform-specific code. The package is a
+**pure-Python server application** sourced entirely from `archive/v1/`.
+
+The package installs a 40-dependency stack including FastAPI, PyTorch, SQLAlchemy,
+Redis, Celery, OpenCV, asyncpg, psycopg2, and Scapy (`archive/v1/setup.py:46–87`).
+The declared entry points are:
+
+```
+wifi-densepose = src.cli:cli
+wdp             = src.cli:cli
+```
+
+(`archive/v1/setup.py:178–179`)
+
+The public API surface is centred on a FastAPI HTTP server, a SQLAlchemy/postgres
+database layer, and a Redis/Celery task queue — none of which map to the current Rust
+architecture. The `__init__.py` exports `app` (FastAPI), `CSIProcessor`,
+`PhaseSanitizer`, `PoseEstimator`, `RouterInterface`, `ServiceOrchestrator`,
+`HealthCheckService`, and `MetricsService` (`archive/v1/src/__init__.py:54–68`).
+
+### 1.2 Why this matters now
+
+ADR-115 (PR #778, merged 2026-05-23) shipped 21 Home Assistant entities, 10 semantic
+primitives, mTLS, privacy mode, and a full witness bundle from the Rust crate
+`wifi-densepose-sensing-server`. ADR-116 is packaging this as a Cognitum Seed cog.
+Neither surface is reachable from `pip install wifi-densepose` — the pip package cannot
+import a CsiFrame, decode an edge-vitals packet, call a DSP stage, verify a witness
+bundle, or subscribe to the sensing server's MQTT or WebSocket endpoints. The ecosystem
+split is now wide enough that the pip package actively misleads new users about what
+the project does.
+
+Three concrete customer pain points:
+
+1. A Python user who `pip install wifi-densepose` expecting to consume live pose/vitals
+   data gets a FastAPI server that requires postgres + redis, not a library they can
+   script against.
+2. Integrators writing HA automations or Node-RED flows in Python have no idiomatic
+   Python API for the v0.7 telemetry surface (ADR-115 entities, semantic primitives).
+3. The ADR-028 witness chain (deterministic pipeline proof) is Python-based and
+   exercised via `archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py`, but it imports from the v1 stack —
+   it cannot witness the Rust pipeline that is now the production implementation.
+
+### 1.3 What this ADR is *not*
+
+- Not a removal of `archive/v1/` from the repository. The v1 codebase stays as a
+  research archive and its proof bundle stays in `archive/v1/data/proof/`.
+- Not a port of the Rust crates to Python. The Rust workspace (`v2/`) is authoritative
+  and unmodified by this ADR.
+- Not a replacement of the `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` Rust binary. The pip
+  package wraps or clients the binary; it does not reimplement it.
+- Not an overlap with ADR-116 (Seed cog packaging). ADR-116 ships a Seed-installable
+  artifact; ADR-117 ships a Python developer library for scripting, automation, and
+  prototyping against the Rust stack.
+

+
+## 2. Current state — evidence
+
+| Artifact | Value | Source |
+|---|---|---|
+| Latest PyPI version | **1.1.0** | `pypi.org/pypi/wifi-densepose/json` |
+| First release date | 2025-06-07T13:24:53Z | PyPI JSON metadata |
+| Latest release date | 2025-06-07T17:02:40Z | PyPI JSON metadata |
+| Months since last release | **~11.5 months** | as of 2026-05-24 |
+| Wheel tag | `py3-none-any` | PyPI simple index |
+| Hard dependencies | 40 (torch, fastapi, sqlalchemy, redis, celery, …) | `setup.py:46–87` |
+| Entry point | `src.cli:cli` | `setup.py:178` |
+| Python requires | `>=3.9` | `setup.py:108` |
+| Classifiers Python versions | 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12 | PyPI JSON classifiers |
+| Classifiers status | Beta (4) | PyPI JSON classifiers |
+| Current Rust workspace version | **0.3.0** | `v2/Cargo.toml:version` |
+| Rust crates in workspace | 20+ | `v2/Cargo.toml` members |
+| ADR-115 shipped | 2026-05-23 | PR #778 |
+
+The v1 source package (`archive/v1/setup.py:112–215`) was clearly designed as an
+all-in-one server application, not a reusable library. The `find_packages` call at
+line 134 searches from `"."` (the archive root), meaning the wheel ships `src.*` as the
+importable namespace. The proof bundle (`archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py:56–57`) imports
+`src.hardware.csi_extractor.CSIData` and `src.core.csi_processor.CSIProcessor` — v1 pure
+Python only.
+
+**PyPI org presence check:** a search for other `ruvnet`-published PyPI packages
+(`ruvector`, `claude-flow`) returned no matches in the PyPI simple index as of this
+writing. The `wifi-densepose` package is currently the only Python entry point for this
+project's ecosystem.

+
+## 3. Gap analysis
+
+| Capability | Rust crate(s) | pip v1.1.0 status | Gap severity |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `CsiFrame` / `CsiMetadata` core types | `wifi-densepose-core` (`types.rs`) | Not present — v1 uses `CSIData` Python class | **Critical** |
+| HR/BR extraction from CSI buffer | `wifi-densepose-vitals` (4-stage pipeline: preprocessor → breathing → heartrate → anomaly) | Stub Python (`src/hardware/csi_extractor.py`) with no DSP | **Critical** |
+| Phase sanitization / noise removal | `wifi-densepose-signal` (`phase_sanitizer`, `csi_processor`, `hampel`) | Python stubs in `src/core/phase_sanitizer.py` | **Critical** |
+| Motion detection + presence scoring | `wifi-densepose-signal` (`motion.rs`, `MotionDetector`) | Not present | **Critical** |
+| RuvSense multistatic sensing (13 modules) | `wifi-densepose-signal/src/ruvsense/` | Not present — ADR-029 post-dates v1 | **Critical** |
+| 17-keypoint pose estimation | `wifi-densepose-nn`, `wifi-densepose-mat` | Stub `PoseEstimator` wrapping a `torch.nn.Module` that requires model weights | **High** |
+| MQTT publisher (21 HA entities) | `wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/mqtt/` | Not present — ADR-115 post-dates v1 | **High** |
+| Semantic primitives (10 types) | `wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/semantic/` | Not present | **High** |
+| Matter bridge | `wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/matter/` | Not present | **High** |
+| WS/REST client for sensing-server | `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (Axum) | v1 has a separate FastAPI server; no client | **High** |
+| Witness bundle verification | ADR-028 / `scripts/generate-witness-bundle.sh` | `archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py` — proves v1 pipeline only | **High** |
+| ESP32-C6 firmware telemetry (ADR-110) | `wifi-densepose-hardware` + `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` | Not present | **Medium** |
+| Cross-viewpoint fusion (RuVector) | `wifi-densepose-ruvector/src/viewpoint/` | Not present | **Medium** |
+| Semantic-primitive MQTT payload | `wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/semantic/bus.rs` | Not present | **Medium** |
+| PostgreSQL + Redis server mode | `archive/v1/` | Present (v1 only) | Low (not SOTA) |
+| FastAPI HTTP REST server | `archive/v1/src/app.py` | Present (v1 only) | Low (not SOTA) |
+
+---
+
+## 4. Decision
+
+Adopt **PyO3 + maturin Python extension bindings** as the primary modernization path,
+shipping the pip package as a platform-native wheel (`manylinux`, `macosx`, `win-amd64`)
+with compiled Rust extension modules, plus a pure-Python WS/MQTT client layer that talks
+to a running `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` instance.
+
+This path is called **PIP-PHOENIX**.
+
+### 4.1 Why PyO3 + maturin over the three rejected alternatives
+
+| Criterion | **PyO3 + maturin** (chosen) | Subprocess wrapper | REST/WS client only | Pure Python reimpl |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Performance for DSP | Native Rust speed, zero copy | IPC overhead per call | N/A — no local DSP | Python bottleneck |
+| Binary size in wheel | Core + vitals + signal only: ~2 MB stripped | Full sensing-server binary: ~15–30 MB | Minimal (~50 kB) | Minimal (~100 kB) |
+| Works offline / no server | Yes | Yes (binary bundled) | No — server required | Partial |
+| Proof bundle can cover Rust pipeline | Yes — bindings call the same Rust code the server uses | Partial — server is a black box | No | No |
+| Install experience | `pip install wifi-densepose` — wheel has no system deps | `pip install` downloads 25 MB binary | `pip install` — pure Python | `pip install` — pure Python |
+| Maintenance surface | Python bindings + Rust workspace | Python thin shim | Python client | Python reimpl must track Rust |
+| Async / tokio support | PyO3 0.28 `pyo3-asyncio` or `pyo3-async-runtimes` for async export; sync entry points for the DSP hot path | N/A | Native asyncio on client | N/A |
+| GIL concern | DSP-heavy calls release GIL via `py.allow_threads`; tokio runtime per module | N/A | None | N/A |
+| Fits existing architecture | Core + vitals + signal already have clean public APIs (`lib.rs` re-exports) | Requires sensing-server to be running | Requires sensing-server | Forks the domain model |
+
+**Subprocess wrapper** is rejected because shipping a 25 MB pre-built server binary
+inside every pip wheel is an unacceptably heavy install, and it makes offline scripting
+impossible without starting the server.
+
+**REST/WS client only** is rejected because it provides zero DSP utility offline and
+cannot close the witness gap — the proof bundle must exercise the same pipeline code.
+
+**Pure Python reimplementation** is the root cause of the current drift and is
+explicitly rejected.
+
+The chosen path starts small: **bind only the three crates with the highest Python
+utility** (`wifi-densepose-core`, `wifi-densepose-vitals`, `wifi-densepose-signal`),
+ship a `py3-none-any` pure-Python WS/MQTT client layer as a separate sub-module, and
+grow from there.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Detailed design
+
+### 5.1 Rust crates bound in v2.0 (first wheel)
+
+Three crates are in scope for the initial binding. They were chosen because they have
+no heavy system dependencies (no libtorch, no ONNX runtime), have stable `pub` re-export
+surfaces in `lib.rs`, and directly address the three most-requested missing capabilities.
+
+| Crate | Exported Python types / functions | Binding rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| `wifi-densepose-core` | `CsiFrame`, `CsiMetadata`, `Keypoint`, `KeypointType`, `PersonPose`, `PoseEstimate`, `Confidence`, `BoundingBox` | Foundation types shared by all other crates; without these users can't even describe a frame |
+| `wifi-densepose-vitals` | `CsiVitalPreprocessor`, `BreathingExtractor`, `HeartRateExtractor`, `VitalAnomalyDetector`, `VitalSignStore`, `VitalReading`, `VitalEstimate`, `AnomalyAlert` | The most-asked-for surface: HR/BR from a CSI buffer in 4 lines of Python |
+| `wifi-densepose-signal` | `CsiProcessor`, `CsiProcessorConfig`, `PhaseSanitizer`, `MotionDetector`, `MotionScore`, `FeatureExtractor`, `HardwareNormalizer` | DSP pipeline that produces the features vitals and pose estimation consume |
+
+Crates **deferred to P6+**: `wifi-densepose-nn` (requires libtorch or candle — wheel
+size risk), `wifi-densepose-mat` (depends on nn), `wifi-densepose-ruvector` (RuVector
+GNN types — high value but adds ruvector-gnn 2.0.5 link dependency),
+`wifi-densepose-hardware` (ESP32 HAL — not Python-scripting friendly).
+
+### 5.2 New workspace member: `python/`
+
+A new crate `python/` is added as a workspace member at `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-py/`.
+It is a `cdylib` that re-exports the three bound crates behind a single maturin module
+named `wifi_densepose._core`.
+
+```toml
+# v2/crates/wifi-densepose-py/Cargo.toml (sketch)
+[package]
+name = "wifi-densepose-py"
+version.workspace = true
+edition.workspace = true
+
+[lib]
+name = "_core"
+crate-type = ["cdylib"]
+
+[dependencies]
+pyo3 = { version = "0.28", features = ["extension-module", "abi3-py310"] }
+wifi-densepose-core   = { path = "../wifi-densepose-core", features = ["serde"] }
+wifi-densepose-vitals = { path = "../wifi-densepose-vitals" }
+wifi-densepose-signal = { path = "../wifi-densepose-signal" }
+```
+
+The `abi3-py310` feature locks the stable ABI to CPython 3.10+, so one wheel binary
+works across 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 3.13 without recompilation.
+
+PyO3 bindings pattern (example for `CsiFrame`):
+
+```rust
+// v2/crates/wifi-densepose-py/src/core_types.rs
+use pyo3::prelude::*;
+use wifi_densepose_core::CsiFrame as RustCsiFrame;
+
+#[pyclass(name = "CsiFrame")]
+#[derive(Clone)]
+pub struct PyCsiFrame {
+    inner: RustCsiFrame,
+}
+
+#[pymethods]
+impl PyCsiFrame {
+    #[new]
+    fn new(amplitudes: Vec<f32>, phases: Vec<f32>, n_subcarriers: usize,
+           sample_index: u64, sample_rate_hz: f32) -> Self {
+        Self { inner: RustCsiFrame { amplitudes, phases, n_subcarriers,
+                                     sample_index, sample_rate_hz } }
+    }
+
+    #[getter] fn amplitudes(&self) -> Vec<f32> { self.inner.amplitudes.clone() }
+    #[getter] fn phases(&self) -> Vec<f32> { self.inner.phases.clone() }
+    #[getter] fn n_subcarriers(&self) -> usize { self.inner.n_subcarriers }
+}
+```
+
+DSP calls that execute >1 ms release the GIL:
+
+```rust
+#[pymethods]
+impl PyCsiProcessor {
+    fn process<'py>(&mut self, py: Python<'py>, frame: &PyCsiFrame)
+        -> PyResult<Option<PyProcessedSignal>>
+    {
+        py.allow_threads(|| self.inner.process(&frame.inner))
+            .map(|opt| opt.map(PyProcessedSignal::from))
+            .map_err(|e| PyRuntimeError::new_err(e.to_string()))
+    }
+}
+```
+

+| `manylinux_2_28` | aarch64 | 3.10+ | `cp310-abi3-manylinux_2_28_aarch64` |

+| sdist | — | — | source fallback |
+
+The `abi3-py310` flag means **one binary per OS/arch** covers all supported Python
+versions — 5 wheels total plus an sdist, compared to the 20-wheel matrix that would be
+needed without stable ABI.

+
+### 5.5 CLI parity
+
+The pip wheel installs a `wifi-densepose` console script. In v2 this script is a thin
+Python shim that:
+
+1. Checks whether `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` binary is on `PATH` (installed
+   separately via a platform-specific binary distribution or `cargo install`).
+2. If found: proxies `wifi-densepose serve`, `wifi-densepose stream`, etc. to the Rust
+   binary via `subprocess.run`.
+3. If not found: falls back to the PyO3 module for offline DSP commands
+   (`wifi-densepose vitals --file recording.jsonl`).
+
+This is explicitly **not** a reimplementation of the CLI — the Rust binary
+(`wifi-densepose-cli/src/main.rs`, currently exposes `mat` and `version` subcommands)
+is the authoritative CLI. The pip shim is a discovery/convenience layer.
+
+### 5.6 WS/MQTT client layer
+
+`wifi_densepose.client.ws.SensingClient` is a pure-Python asyncio client wrapping the
+sensing-server WebSocket at `/ws/sensing`:
+
+```python
+async with SensingClient("ws://localhost:8765/ws/sensing") as client:
+    async for msg in client.stream():
+        if msg.type == "edge_vitals":
+            print(msg.breathing_rate_bpm, msg.heartrate_bpm)
+```
+
+`wifi_densepose.client.mqtt.RuViewMqttClient` wraps paho-mqtt and subscribes to
+`ruview/<node_id>/raw/+` as defined in ADR-115 §3.2.
+
+Both clients are **pure Python** (no PyO3) and are optional dependencies (`pip install
+wifi-densepose[client]`). They depend on `websockets>=12` and `paho-mqtt>=2` respectively.
+
+### 5.7a Beamforming Feedback Loop Data (BFLD) support — new binding target
+
+**Added 2026-05-24 per maintainer feedback during P3 implementation.**
+
+BFLD is the transmitter-side, AP-station-loop view of the WiFi channel
+— compressed beamforming feedback frames that 802.11ac/ax/be stations
+send to the AP per sounding cycle. From a sensing perspective it
+complements receiver-side CSI:
+
+| | Receiver-side CSI (current) | BFLD (this addition) |
+|---|---|---|
+| Source | RX side of the radio (e.g. Nexmon CSI on Pi 5, ESP32 promisc cb) | Sniffed BFR frames in the air or `mac80211` ACK trace |
+| Subcarriers (HE20) | 52 (HT-LTF) or 242 (HE-LTF) | Up to 996 (HE160 compressed BFR) — denser |
+| Hardware requirements | Patched Broadcom/Cypress or ESP32 specifically | **Any** 802.11ac+ station-AP pair — no patched firmware |
+| Privacy model | Captures everyone in radio range | Same |
+| Maturity in repo | Production (ADR-014, ADR-018, ADR-039) | Research; no Rust crate yet |
+| Suitable use case | Through-wall pose + vitals | Dense subcarrier reflection profile for AETHER-class biometric (ADR-024) and the soul-signature spec (`docs/research/soul/`) |
+
+#### Binding strategy
+
+Because the Rust workspace has no `wifi-densepose-bfld` crate yet, P3
+ships a **forward-compatible Python trait surface** that the future
+Rust crate plugs into without changing the Python API:
+
+```python
+from wifi_densepose import BfldFrame, BfldReport
+
+# Today (P3): construct from a parsed BFR feedback matrix (the bring-
+# your-own-parser path). Users on Pi 5 + Wireshark BFR dissector
+# pipe frames in directly.
+frame = BfldFrame.from_compressed_feedback(
+    timestamp_ms=…,
+    sounding_index=…,
+    sta_mac="aa:bb:cc:…",
+    bandwidth_mhz=80,
+    n_subcarriers=996,
+    feedback_matrix=…,  # numpy ndarray complex64 [Nr × Nc × Nsc]
+)
+
+# P3 also ships a stub `BfldReport` aggregator that mirrors how
+# `VitalEstimate` aggregates `VitalReading`s. Users who have BFR
+# pipelines feeding RuView can use this today via the
+# bring-your-own-parser path.
+
+# Tomorrow (post-v2.0): the `wifi-densepose-bfld` Rust crate (TBD —
+# separate ADR-1xx) provides ingestion from Nexmon `nl80211` traces +
+# kernel `mac80211` debugfs hooks, and the pip wheel transparently
+# binds it without changing this Python surface.
+```
+
+#### Why this matters
+
+Three reasons BFLD belongs in v2.0 rather than waiting for the Rust
+core:
+
+1. **Customer pull**. Several integrators reading the ADR-115 release
+   notes asked about WiFi-6 dense-subcarrier capture; the answer is
+   BFLD, and we want the API stable before they build pipelines.
+2. **Soul-signature dependency**. The soul-signature research spec
+   (`docs/research/soul/specification.md`) lists "Subcarrier Reflection
+   Profile" as one of seven biometric channels. At HE20/HE80 the
+   dense BFR subcarriers are the right input — exposing `BfldFrame`
+   now lets researchers prototype the channel without waiting on a
+   Rust ingestion crate.
+3. **Cross-vendor portability**. CSI ingestion needs patched
+   firmware. BFR ingestion works on stock 802.11ac/ax hardware
+   (capture via `tcpdump`/Wireshark + a BFR dissector). Shipping the
+   Python data structures first gives the community a way to feed
+   RuView from gear we don't directly support.
+
+#### Implementation surface in P3
+
+Lands as a new module `bindings/bfld.rs` (~150 lines, three
+`#[pyclass]` types):
+
+- `BfldFrame` (frozen) — one compressed feedback matrix snapshot.
+  Constructors: `from_compressed_feedback(...)` and
+  `from_uncompressed_v(...)` (the 802.11n V-matrix form).
+  Properties: `timestamp_ms`, `sounding_index`, `sta_mac`,
+  `bandwidth_mhz`, `n_subcarriers`, `n_rows` (Nr), `n_cols` (Nc),
+  `feedback_matrix` (numpy ndarray complex64).
+- `BfldReport` (frozen) — aggregator over a window of `BfldFrame`s.
+  Properties: `n_frames`, `timestamp_first`, `timestamp_last`,
+  `mean_amplitude_per_subcarrier`, `coherence_score`. The Python
+  side gives users a stable handle for "all BFR data in this 60-s
+  scan" without leaking the storage representation.
+- `BfldKind` (`#[pyclass(eq, eq_int, hash, frozen)]`) — enum
+  enumerating the BFR variants we support: `CompressedHE20`,
+  `CompressedHE40`, `CompressedHE80`, `CompressedHE160`,
+  `UncompressedHT20`, `UncompressedHT40`.
+
+Stub Rust implementation lives in `python/src/bfld_stub.rs` until
+the proper Rust crate exists; it's intentionally not in v2/crates/.
+A new ADR-1xx will own the Rust ingestion crate when we commit to it.
+
+#### Open questions added
+
+- §9.11 — Should BFLD ingestion live in a new `wifi-densepose-bfld`
+  crate or in `wifi-densepose-signal` extended?
+- §9.12 — Per-vendor BFR variant compatibility (Broadcom vs Intel vs
+  Qualcomm encode the compressed angles slightly differently) — how
+  much normalisation belongs in the Python binding vs. the future
+  Rust crate?
+
+### 5.7 Witness chain (re-rooted to the Rust pipeline)
+
+`wifi_densepose.witness.verify_bundle(path)` replaces the v1 proof verification with a
+new chain that exercises the Rust pipeline via PyO3:
+
+```python
+from wifi_densepose.witness import verify_bundle
+
+result = verify_bundle("dist/witness-bundle-ADR028-*/")
+assert result.verdict == "PASS", result.detail
+```
+
+Internally it:
+1. Loads the 1,000-frame reference JSON from the bundle.
+2. Feeds each frame through `PyCsiProcessor` (PyO3 binding of the Rust `CsiProcessor`).
+3. Hashes the output using the same SHA-256 scheme as `archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py`.
+4. Compares against the published hash in `expected_features.sha256`.
+
+The v1 proof (`archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py`) is **preserved unchanged** — it
+continues to prove the v1 pipeline. The new `witness.py` proves the v2/Rust pipeline.
+Both can coexist; the ADR-028 witness bundle ships with both.
+

+## 6. Migration path (phased)
+
+```
+P1  ──►  P2  ──►  P3  ──►  P4  ──►  P5  ──►  P6+
+scaffold  core   vitals+   client   publish  deferred
+          types  signal    layer    v2.0.0
+```
+
+### P1 — Scaffold (1 week)
+
+- [ ] Add `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-py/` as workspace member.
+- [ ] `Cargo.toml`: `crate-type = ["cdylib"]`, pyo3 0.28 + `abi3-py310`, no
+  workspace deps yet (empty module compiles and imports).
+- [ ] `pyproject.toml` at repo root `python/` with `[build-system] requires =
+  ["maturin>=1.8"]` and `[tool.maturin] features = ["pyo3/extension-module"]`.
+- [ ] CI job: `maturin develop` on ubuntu-latest in a Python 3.12 venv; import
+  `wifi_densepose._core` succeeds.
+- [ ] Publish `wifi-densepose==1.99.0` to PyPI with a migration notice in the
+  module body (see §9 — no new features, just the tombstone release).
+
+### P2 — Core type bindings (1 week)
+
+- [ ] Bind `CsiFrame`, `CsiMetadata`, `Confidence`, `Keypoint`, `KeypointType`,
+  `BoundingBox`, `PoseEstimate`, `PersonPose` from `wifi-densepose-core`.
+- [ ] All types: `__repr__`, `__eq__`, `__hash__` where meaningful; serde JSON
+  round-trip via `pyo3-serde` or manual `to_dict()` / `from_dict()`.
+- [ ] Add `py.typed` + stub `.pyi` file generated by `pyo3-stub-gen`.
+- [ ] Unit tests: `tests/test_core.py` — construct each type, round-trip JSON.
+
+### P3 — Vitals + signal DSP bindings (2 weeks)
+
+- [ ] Bind the full 4-stage vitals pipeline:
+  `CsiVitalPreprocessor`, `BreathingExtractor`, `HeartRateExtractor`,
+  `VitalAnomalyDetector`, `VitalSignStore`, `VitalReading`, `VitalEstimate`,
+  `AnomalyAlert`.
+- [ ] Bind signal DSP entry points: `CsiProcessor`, `CsiProcessorConfig`,
+  `PhaseSanitizer`, `MotionDetector`, `HardwareNormalizer`.
+- [ ] GIL release (`py.allow_threads`) on all calls >0.5 ms (measured in bench).
+- [ ] Integration test: feed 1,000 frames from `archive/v1/data/proof/sample_csi_data.json`
+  through the PyO3 vitals pipeline; assert output is deterministic across runs.
+- [ ] Re-implement `witness/verify.py` using P3 bindings; compare SHA-256 against the
+  v1 expected hash. **Note:** the hash will differ because the Rust and Python
+  processors are not identical — generate and publish a new `expected_features_v2.sha256`.
+
+### P4 — WS/MQTT client layer (1 week)
+
+- [ ] Implement `wifi_densepose.client.ws.SensingClient` (asyncio, `websockets>=12`).
+- [ ] Implement `wifi_densepose.client.mqtt.RuViewMqttClient` (paho-mqtt 2.x).
+- [ ] Add `wifi_densepose.client.ha` helpers that parse ADR-115 MQTT discovery payloads
+  into Python dataclasses.
+- [ ] Integration test: spin up `sensing-server` in Docker with `--mock-frames`;
+  assert `SensingClient` receives `edge_vitals` messages.
+
+### P5 — First cibuildwheel publish as v2.0.0 (1 week)
+
+- [ ] `.github/workflows/pip-release.yml` — cibuildwheel matrix (5 wheels + sdist).
+- [ ] `python_requires = ">=3.10"` (stable ABI base).
+- [ ] Populate `pyproject.toml` with minimal `install_requires`: `pyo3` is a build dep,
+  not a runtime dep. Runtime extras: `[client]` adds `websockets>=12,paho-mqtt>=2`.
+- [ ] `pip install wifi-densepose==2.0.0` and smoke-test on each CI platform.
+- [ ] PyPI publish via Trusted Publisher (OIDC, no API token in secrets).
+- [ ] Announce: `wifi-densepose==1.99.0` tombstone already on PyPI; `v2.0.0` replaces
+  it in search results.
+
+### P3.5 — BFLD binding surface (concurrent with P3)
+
+**Added 2026-05-24 per maintainer feedback.** See §5.7a for the rationale.
+
+- [ ] `python/src/bindings/bfld.rs` — `BfldFrame`, `BfldReport`,
+  `BfldKind` `#[pyclass]` wrappers backed by a stub Rust impl
+  pending the v3 `wifi-densepose-bfld` crate.
+- [ ] `python/src/bfld_stub.rs` — minimal in-crate stub storage
+  (vec of compressed feedback matrices) so the Python API is
+  fully usable today even before the Rust ingestion crate lands.
+- [ ] Numpy bridge for `feedback_matrix` (Complex64 ndarray) — same
+  approach as `CsiFrame.amplitude` from P3.
+- [ ] Tests covering: per-bandwidth constructor paths
+  (HE20/HE40/HE80/HE160 + HT20/HT40), n_subcarriers contract,
+  coherence_score sanity, BfldKind hashability + equality.
+- [ ] Forward-compat contract test: `BfldFrame` constructed today
+  from a numpy ndarray must round-trip through (de)serialisation
+  identically once the Rust crate exists.
+- [ ] §9.11 + §9.12 open questions raised so the eventual Rust crate
+  has clear decisions waiting for it.
+
+P3.5 is concurrent with P3 (no new schedule cushion needed) because
+the Python surface is independent of the rest of the v2/ workspace.
+Land in the same wheel as P3.
+
+### P6+ — Deferred
+
+- [ ] `wifi-densepose-bfld` Rust crate — proper ingestion from
+  Nexmon BFR pcaps + `mac80211` debugfs. Replaces the P3.5 stub
+  storage without changing the Python API. Owns its own ADR-1xx.
+- [ ] `wifi-densepose-nn` bindings (libtorch / candle wheel size TBD — see Open
+  Questions §13.3).
+- [ ] `wifi-densepose-ruvector` bindings (RuVector attention types).
+- [ ] MQTT/Matter integration helpers (`wifi_densepose.client.matter`).
+- [ ] Deprecation notice on `wifi-densepose==1.x` releases (PyPI yank — see §9).
+- [ ] `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` binary distribution via pip extra
+  (`pip install wifi-densepose[server]` fetches pre-built binary for the platform).
+- [ ] HACS Python integration built on top of the pip client layer (follow-on to
+  ADR-115 §6.A).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Compatibility and deprecation
+
+### 7.1 Version bump strategy
+
+`wifi-densepose==2.0.0` is a **hard major-version break**. The 1.x import namespace
+`src.*` is incompatible with the 2.x namespace `wifi_densepose.*`. There is no shim
+that can bridge them transparently.
+
+### 7.2 Tombstone release: v1.99.0
+
+Before publishing v2.0.0, publish `wifi-densepose==1.99.0` as a pure-Python sdist/wheel
+whose sole content is:
+
+```python
+# wifi_densepose/__init__.py  (v1.99.0)
+raise ImportError(
+    "wifi-densepose 1.x has been superseded by v2.0.0 which wraps "
+    "the Rust-based stack. Run:\n\n"
+    "    pip install wifi-densepose==2.0.0\n\n"
+    "Migration guide: https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/blob/main/docs/pip-migration.md\n"
+    "Legacy v1 source: archive/v1/ in the repository"
+)
+```
+
+This ensures any project pinned to `wifi-densepose>=1` that upgrades to 1.99.0 gets a
+clear error rather than a silent broken import.
+
+### 7.3 PyPI yank strategy
+
+After v2.0.0 is stable (90-day observation window):
+
+- Yank `wifi-densepose==1.0.0` — never had a separate stable release period; was
+  superseded 4 hours after publication.
+- Leave `wifi-densepose==1.1.0` un-yanked but deprecated in the description.
+- Publish `wifi-densepose==1.99.0` as the canonical 1.x landing page (raise error).
+
+Yanked versions remain installable with `pip install wifi-densepose==1.1.0 --force`
+so users with reproducible builds pinned to exact versions are not broken silently.
+
+### 7.4 Semver
+
+| Version | Content |
+|---|---|
+| 1.0.0 – 1.1.0 | Legacy Python server (archive/v1/) |
+| **1.99.0** | Tombstone: ImportError migration notice |
+| **2.0.0** | PyO3 Rust bindings + WS/MQTT client |
+| 2.x.y | Additive bindings + client improvements |
+| 3.0.0 | If/when nn bindings added (libtorch wheel size may force a separate package) |
+
+---
+
+## 8. Alternatives considered and rejected
+
+### Alt-A: Subprocess wrapper
+
+Package the pre-built `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` Rust binary inside the pip wheel.
+Python calls it via `subprocess`. **Rejected** because: the binary is 15–30 MB stripped;
+the install footprint is prohibitive; offline DSP scripting still requires the server to
+be running; the witness chain cannot exercise Rust code through a black-box binary.
+
+### Alt-B: REST/WS client only
+
+Ship a pure-Python package that is purely a client to a running `sensing-server`
+instance. **Rejected** because: it provides zero offline utility; it cannot host the
+witness chain over the Rust pipeline; it solves the "Python access to telemetry" problem
+but not the "Python DSP / prototyping" problem that academic and embedded users need.
+
+### Alt-C: Pure Python reimplementation
+
+Rewrite the DSP pipeline in pure Python/NumPy to reach parity with the Rust
+implementation. **Rejected explicitly** — this is the root cause of the current 11-month
+drift and the pattern this ADR is designed to exit. Any Python reimplementation will
+immediately begin drifting again as the Rust stack evolves.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Risks
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Severity | Mitigation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **Build matrix complexity** — 5 target triples × cibuildwheel setup; CI time; QEMU for aarch64 cross-compile | High | Medium | Use `abi3-py310` (5 wheels not 20); QEMU aarch64 emulation available in GitHub Actions; maturin handles auditwheel automatically |
+| **Binary size** — future nn/ONNX bindings may push wheel past 50 MB | Medium | High | Keep nn bindings in a separate `wifi-densepose-nn` PyPI package; keep core+vitals+signal wheel lean (~2 MB stripped) |
+| **GIL / async issues** — PyO3 wrapping tokio crates requires careful runtime management; `py.allow_threads` must be used around all blocking Rust calls | High | High | Restrict initial bindings to synchronous Rust APIs (vitals, signal, core are all sync); async sensing-server client stays in pure-Python `client/ws.py` |
+| **Maintainer overhead** — two languages, two build systems, one PyPI package | Medium | Medium | maturin unifies the build; CI handles publishing; start with 3 bound crates only |
+| **1.x user breakage** — users pinned to `wifi-densepose>=1,<2` will get the tombstone | Low | Medium | 1.99.0 tombstone gives a clear error; maintain 1.1.0 on PyPI un-yanked for 90 days post-v2 |
+| **Windows Rust toolchain in CI** — linking PyO3 on Windows requires MSVC or mingw; extra CI complexity | Medium | Medium | GitHub Actions `windows-latest` has MSVC; maturin + cibuildwheel handle this natively |
+| **Stable ABI limitations** — `abi3` precludes some advanced PyO3 features (e.g. `Buffer` protocol) | Low | Low | Core/vitals/signal types are scalar/Vec<f32> — no need for buffer protocol in P2–P3 |
+| **PyPI name ownership** — we own `wifi-densepose` on PyPI (confirmed via rUv author field) | Low | Low | Confirm with `pypi.org/user/ruvnet` before publishing |
+
+---
+
+## 10. Acceptance criteria
+
+The following checks must all pass before ADR-117 is considered Accepted:
+
+- [ ] `pip install wifi-densepose==2.0.0` succeeds on Python 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13
+  on linux/x86_64, macos/arm64, and windows/amd64 in a clean venv with no extra build tools.
+- [ ] `python -c "import wifi_densepose; print(wifi_densepose.__version__)"` prints `2.0.0`.
+- [ ] `python -c "from wifi_densepose import CsiFrame; f = CsiFrame([1.0]*56, [0.0]*56, 56, 0, 100.0); print(f)"` produces a non-error repr.
+- [ ] The 4-stage vitals pipeline processes 1,000 frames in under 500 ms on a
+  reference machine (CPython 3.12, linux x86_64, no GPU).
+- [ ] `wifi_densepose.witness.verify_bundle(path)` returns `verdict="PASS"` for a
+  freshly generated witness bundle from `scripts/generate-witness-bundle.sh`.
+- [ ] `wifi_densepose.client.ws.SensingClient` receives at least one `edge_vitals`
+  message from a `sensing-server --mock-frames` instance within 5 seconds.
+- [ ] `pip install wifi-densepose==1.99.0` raises `ImportError` with the migration URL.
+- [ ] The compiled `_core` extension has no unresolved dynamic library dependencies
+  beyond libc/msvcrt (verified by `auditwheel show` on Linux, `delocate-listdeps` on macOS).
+- [ ] Type stubs (`wifi_densepose/*.pyi`) are present; `mypy --strict` passes on the
+  example code in `examples/vitals_from_buffer.py`.
+- [ ] Total wheel size for core+vitals+signal: `≤ 5 MB` per platform.
+
+---
+
+## 11. Open questions
+
+1. **Stable ABI base version**: `abi3-py310` drops support for Python 3.9, which v1.1.0
+   declared. Is Python 3.9 EOL-enough (EOL 2025-10-05) to drop cleanly? *Tentative: yes,
+   drop 3.9. Use abi3-py310.*
+
+2. **Package name for nn bindings**: if `wifi-densepose-nn` bindings require a 30 MB
+   libtorch wheel, should they live at `wifi-densepose-nn` (separate PyPI package) or
+   as an optional heavy extra of `wifi-densepose[nn]`? *Tentative: separate package to
+   avoid polluting the lean wheel.*
+
+3. **Witness hash continuity**: the Rust pipeline will produce a different SHA-256 than
+   the v1 Python pipeline for the same input frames. The new `expected_features_v2.sha256`
+   must be generated and committed before v2.0.0 ships. Who generates it, and how is
+   the generation process itself witnessed? *Tentative: generate in CI, commit hash to
+   `archive/v1/data/proof/`, include in ADR-028 matrix.*
+
+4. **`ruv-neural` crate**: `v2/crates/ruv-neural/` exists in the workspace. Is it a
+   candidate for early Python bindings (useful for training-loop scripting), or should
+   it wait for the nn/train tier? *Tentative: defer — it depends on training backends.*
+
+5. **Tokio runtime**: `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` is tokio-based, but the three
+   crates bound in P2–P3 (`core`, `vitals`, `signal`) are synchronous. Are there any
+   hidden tokio dependencies that would force a runtime into the extension module?
+   *Tentative: inspect each crate's Cargo.toml for tokio deps before P1 scaffold.*
+
+6. **`pyo3-stub-gen` vs manual stubs**: automated stub generation from PyO3 has rough
+   edges for generics and newtype patterns. Should we hand-write `.pyi` stubs for the
+   first release? *Tentative: use `pyo3-stub-gen` for scaffolding, hand-tune for public
+   API.*
+
+7. **`wifi_densepose` vs `wifi-densepose` namespace**: the pip package name uses a dash
+   (`wifi-densepose`) but Python imports use underscores (`wifi_densepose`). The v1
+   package shipped under `src.*`, not `wifi_densepose.*`. Is there any tooling that
+   hardcodes the `src` namespace? *Tentative: the `src.*` namespace was specific to
+   `archive/v1/` and is cleanly dropped.*
+
+8. **cibuildwheel version**: the current stable is cibuildwheel v2.x. Does the
+   project's existing GitHub Actions config need updates for maturin builds vs
+   the current `cargo build` / `build.py` patterns? *Tentative: yes, add a separate
+   `pip-release.yml` workflow; do not modify existing Rust CI.*
+
+9. **RuVector bindings timeline**: the `wifi-densepose-ruvector` crate (`v2/crates/`)
+   depends on `ruvector-gnn = "2.0.5"`. Does ruvector-gnn ship as a pre-built static
+   lib or require linking at build time? This directly affects the P6+ wheel size.
+   *Tentative: investigate ruvector-gnn link strategy before committing to a timeline.*
+
+10. **`wifi_densepose.client.ha` conflict with ADR-115/116**: the `ha.py` helper module
+    should not duplicate the ADR-115 MQTT discovery logic in Python. Should it be read-only
+    (parse HA discovery JSON → Python dataclasses) or also write (publish discovery JSON)?
+    *Tentative: read-only for v2.0. Write path deferred to the HACS integration follow-on
+    (ADR-115 §6.A).*
+
+11. **BFLD Rust crate ownership** (added 2026-05-24): the P3.5 BFLD bindings ship with a
+    stub Rust impl in `python/src/bfld_stub.rs`. The proper Rust crate (Nexmon BFR pcap
+    parser + `mac80211` debugfs ingestor) will land later. Should it be a new
+    `wifi-densepose-bfld` workspace member, or should it extend `wifi-densepose-signal`?
+    *Tentative: new dedicated crate. Reasons: (a) the BFR parser is significant code
+    (Wireshark's dissector is ~2k lines) and bloats `-signal`; (b) BFLD ingestion is
+    optional — many deployments will only use CSI; gating behind a separate crate keeps
+    the default `-signal` lean. Decide before committing to the crate name in any
+    `pyproject.toml` extras.*
+
+12. **BFLD per-vendor compressed-angle variants** (added 2026-05-24): 802.11 standardizes
+    the compressed beamforming feedback format but vendors (Broadcom, Intel, Qualcomm,
+    MediaTek) differ in psi/phi quantization step + ordering of consecutive matrix
+    entries. How much normalisation belongs in the Python `BfldFrame.from_compressed_feedback`
+    binding vs. the future Rust crate? *Tentative: Python binding is dumb (numpy ndarray
+    in, numpy ndarray out — no decoding); the future Rust crate owns per-vendor
+    normalisation, exposed via a `Vendor` enum on the binding constructor. Confirm via
+    a per-vendor test fixture before P3.5 ships.*

+| **Tracking issue** | TBD |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+### 1.1 The plaintext BFI problem
+
+IEEE 802.11ac and 802.11ax beamforming feedback (BFI) is exchanged between client stations (STA) and access points (AP) in **unencrypted management-plane frames**. The STA compresses the channel response into a Givens-rotation angle matrix (Φ/ψ) and transmits it as a VHT/HE Compressed Beamforming Report (CBFR). Any device in WiFi monitor mode within range can passively sniff these frames without joining the network.
+
+Two independent 2024–2025 research results establish the severity of this exposure:
+
+1. **BFId** (KIT, ACM CCS 2025) — re-identifies 197 individuals from BFI alone with >90% accuracy from 5 s of capture. https://publikationen.bibliothek.kit.edu/1000185756
+2. **LeakyBeam** (NDSS 2025) — detects occupancy through walls at 20 m with 82.7% TPR / 96.7% TNR using only plaintext BFI. https://www.ndss-symposium.org/wp-content/uploads/2025-5-paper.pdf
+
+Capture tooling is freely available: **Wi-BFI** (pip-installable), **PicoScenes**, **Nexmon BFI patches** for BCM43455c0 (Raspberry Pi 5 / 4 / 3B+).
+
+### 1.2 Gap in the existing RuView pipeline
+
+The wifi-densepose / RuView pipeline processes CSI via the rvCSI runtime (ADR-095/096) and emits presence, pose, vitals, and zone-activity events. **No layer in the existing pipeline measures whether the data it is processing is capable of identifying individuals.** All CSI is treated as equivalent from a privacy standpoint regardless of operating regime.
+
+This gap becomes a compliance and liability issue at deployment scale. An operator placing RuView in a care home, hotel, shared office, or rental property has no instrument to verify that the system is operating anonymously.
+
+### 1.3 BFI as a sensing signal
+
+BFI is not only a threat vector — its compressed angle matrices carry multipath geometry useful for presence and motion detection, particularly in single-AP deployments where MIMO CSI is unavailable. BFLD treats BFI as an **optional input alongside CSI**, not a replacement.
+
+### 1.4 Relationship to the Soul Signature research
+
+The Soul Signature research (`docs/research/soul/`) defines a 7-channel multi-modal biometric for **consent-based** passive re-identification of enrolled individuals. Where Soul Signature *intentionally produces* identity (with a 60-second enrollment protocol), BFLD *measures and gates* identity leakage from the same sensing substrate. The two systems are complementary by design:
+
+| Concern | Soul Signature | BFLD |
+|---------|----------------|------|
+| Intent | Create a biometric for enrolled persons | Measure and gate identity leakage |
+| Consent model | Explicit enrollment, GDPR/HIPAA modes | Default-deny, all unenrolled persons |
+| Operating class | Must run at `privacy_class = 1` (derived) | Defaults to class 2 (anonymous) |
+| Shared assets | AETHER encoder (ADR-024), WitnessChain (ADR-110/028), RVF container, `cross_room.rs` (ADR-030) | Same |
+| ID space | Long-lived opaque `person_id` per enrolled subject | Rotating `rf_signature_hash` per day per unenrolled person |
+
+BFLD becomes Soul Signature's enforcement layer: the `identity_risk_score` gates whether a zone is leaky enough to enroll, the witness bundle is the regulator-facing audit artifact, and the structural privacy invariants (I1/I2/I3) ensure unenrolled bystanders stay anonymous even in zones where Soul Signature is actively matching enrolled persons. See ADR-120 §2.7 and ADR-121 §2.7 for the integration points.
+
+### 1.5 What this ADR is *not*
+
+- Not a removal of the CSI pipeline. ADR-095/096 rvCSI stays authoritative for CSI.
+- Not a port of any external sniffer into the repo. The Nexmon capture path lives in a separate adapter (see ADR-123).
+- Not a Matter SDK ship — Matter exposure is filtered through the ADR-116 `cog-ha-matter` boundary.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+Create a new Rust crate **`wifi-densepose-bfld`** in `v2/crates/` that:
+
+1. **Ingests** BFI angle matrices (Φ/ψ) from CBFR frames, optionally fused with CSI.
+2. **Computes** nine named features and an `identity_risk_score` (separability × temporal_stability × cross_perspective_consistency × sample_confidence).
+3. **Gates** all output through a `privacy_class` byte that **structurally prevents** identity-correlated data from being published at classes 2 (anonymous) and 3 (restricted).
+4. **Emits** `BfldEvent` JSON over MQTT under `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/*` with per-class topic routing.
+5. **Enforces three invariants structurally, not by policy**:
+   - **I1**: Raw BFI never exits the node.
+   - **I2**: Identity embedding is in-RAM-only (no disk, no network).
+   - **I3**: Cross-site identity correlation is cryptographically impossible via per-site keyed BLAKE3 hash rotation with a daily epoch.
+
+The umbrella implementation is decomposed into five sub-ADRs:
+
+| Sub-ADR | Scope |
+|---------|-------|
+| **ADR-119** | `BfldFrame` wire format, magic `0xBF1D_0001`, deterministic serialization, CRC32 |
+| **ADR-120** | `privacy_class` semantics, BLAKE3 hash rotation, default-deny field classification |
+| **ADR-121** | Identity risk scoring formula, coherence gate, leakage estimator |
+| **ADR-122** | RuView surface: HA entities, Matter cluster boundary, MQTT topic ACL |
+| **ADR-123** | Capture path: Pi 5 / Nexmon adapter + ESP32-S3 BFI feasibility |
+

+### 2.2 Reuse map
+
+| BFLD module | Depends on |
+|---|---|
+| `features.rs` | `wifi-densepose-signal/src/ruvsense/coherence.rs`, `multistatic.rs` |
+| `identity_risk.rs` | `wifi-densepose-ruvector/src/viewpoint/attention.rs`, `coherence.rs` |

+| `extractor.rs` | `vendor/rvcsi/crates/rvcsi-adapter-nexmon` (ADR-095/096) |
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- First explicit, auditable RF-layer privacy primitive in the wifi-densepose ecosystem.
+- `identity_risk_score` doubles as an anomaly signal (sudden spike → new AP firmware / nearby attacker-grade sniffer / unusual propagation).
+- BFI fusion augments presence/motion in single-AP deployments.
+- Deterministic frame hashes extend the ADR-028 witness-bundle pattern to the new surface.
+- Cross-site isolation is **structural, not policy-dependent** — a stronger guarantee than ACLs.
+
+### Negative
+
+- ESP32-S3 cannot directly capture CBFR via the Espressif WiFi API. Full BFLD pipeline requires a Pi 5 / Nexmon host sniffer (cognitum-v0 available; see ADR-123).
+- `identity_risk_score` calibration requires the KIT BFId dataset (non-commercial research agreement).
+- Estimated effort: ~10.5 engineer-weeks across the six ADRs.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- BFLD does not prevent passive BFI capture by an external attacker (LeakyBeam-class). It only ensures the **node's own output** is non-identifying. Operators must understand this distinction.
+- Daily hash rotation prevents multi-day analytics correlating individual signatures across the day boundary. Acceptable for privacy goals; may surprise analytics use-cases.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Skip BFI entirely (CSI-only)
+
+Rejected because: (a) leaves the identity-leakage gap open for the CSI pipeline; (b) as BFI tooling becomes ubiquitous (Wi-BFI, PicoScenes), the absence of a privacy layer becomes more conspicuous for operators.
+
+### Alt 2: Publish `identity_risk_score` publicly by default
+
+Rejected: the risk score itself is privacy-sensitive (reveals presence via timing correlation). Default is opt-in.
+
+### Alt 3: Cloud ML on raw BFI
+
+Rejected: violates I1. Cloud training creates an off-node store of angle matrices reconstructible into identity profiles.
+
+### Alt 4: Differential privacy noise on BFI at ingress
+
+Deferred to a follow-up ADR. DP sensitivity analysis and its interaction with `identity_risk_score` calibration are not yet complete. Current design achieves privacy through structural impossibility, not noise injection.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: Extractor parses BFI from 802.11ac and 802.11ax captures, 20/40/80/160 MHz, 2×2 through 4×4 MIMO.
+- [ ] **AC2**: Presence detection latency ≤ 1 s p95 from first non-empty BFI frame.
+- [ ] **AC3**: Motion score published at ≥ 1 Hz on `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/motion/state`.
+- [ ] **AC4**: Raw BFI bytes never present in any serialized `BfldFrame` payload at any `privacy_class` value.
+- [ ] **AC5**: With `privacy_mode` enabled, all identity-derived fields are absent from outbound events.
+- [ ] **AC6**: Identical `BfiCapture` inputs produce bit-identical `BfldFrame` serialization (deterministic hash).
+- [ ] **AC7**: Pipeline produces valid `BfldEvent` outputs without `csi_matrix` (BFI-only mode).
+
+Per-sub-ADR acceptance criteria are defined in ADR-119 through ADR-123.

+# ADR-119: BFLD Frame Format and Wire Protocol
+
+| Field | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| **Status** | Proposed |
+| **Date** | 2026-05-24 |
+| **Deciders** | ruv |
+| **Parent** | [ADR-118](ADR-118-bfld-beamforming-feedback-layer-for-detection.md) |
+| **Relates to** | [ADR-028](ADR-028-esp32-capability-audit.md) (witness/deterministic proof), [ADR-095](ADR-095-rvcsi-edge-rf-sensing-platform.md) (rvCSI `CsiFrame` schema) |
+| **Tracking issue** | TBD |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+The BFLD pipeline (ADR-118) emits an over-the-wire `BfldFrame` consumed by the RuView aggregator, HA bridge, and witness bundle. The frame must be:
+
+1. **Deterministic** — identical input ⇒ bit-identical output, so witness hashes survive verification (ADR-028 pattern).
+2. **Self-describing** — magic + version so future BFLD revisions don't silently corrupt aggregator state.
+3. **Privacy-classified at the byte level** — the receiver must know the data class before it even parses the payload, so it can drop frames it isn't authorized to handle.
+4. **Compact** — BFLD nodes may emit at up to 10 Hz; the frame must be small enough for unsharded MQTT and ESP-NOW transport.
+5. **Endianness-stable** — captures from x86_64 (ruvultra), aarch64 (cognitum-v0, Pi 5 cluster), and Xtensa (ESP32-S3) must produce identical bytes.
+
+The existing rvCSI `CsiFrame` (ADR-095) is the closest precedent. BFLD reuses the same little-endian convention and the same "validate-before-FFI" posture.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+### 2.1 `BfldFrame` header (40 bytes, little-endian, packed)
+
+```rust
+#[repr(C, packed)]
+pub struct BfldFrameHeader {
+    pub magic: u32,              // 0xBF1D_0001
+    pub version: u16,            // 1
+    pub flags: u16,              // bit0=has_csi_delta, bit1=privacy_mode, bit2-15 reserved
+    pub timestamp_ns: u64,       // monotonic capture clock
+
+    pub ap_hash: [u8; 16],       // BLAKE3-keyed(site_salt, ap_mac)[0..16]
+    pub sta_hash: [u8; 16],      // BLAKE3-keyed(site_salt ‖ day_epoch, sta_mac)[0..16]
+    pub session_id: [u8; 16],    // ephemeral, rotated on capture-session boundary
+
+    pub channel: u16,            // 802.11 channel number
+    pub bandwidth_mhz: u16,      // 20 | 40 | 80 | 160
+    pub rssi_dbm: i16,
+    pub noise_floor_dbm: i16,
+
+    pub n_subcarriers: u16,
+    pub n_tx: u8,
+    pub n_rx: u8,
+    pub quantization: u8,        // 0=f32, 1=i16, 2=i8, 3=packed (4-bit nibbles)
+    pub privacy_class: u8,       // 0=raw, 1=derived, 2=anonymous, 3=restricted (default 2)
+
+    pub payload_len: u32,
+    pub payload_crc32: u32,      // CRC-32/ISO-HDLC over payload bytes only
+}
+```
+
+Total header size: **86 bytes packed** (validated by `static_assertions::const_assert_eq!` in `wifi-densepose-bfld/src/frame.rs`). Earlier drafts stated 40 bytes — that was a counting error caught during P1 scaffold; see AC1 below.
+
+### 2.2 Payload structure
+
+Payload is a length-prefixed sequence of typed sections in this exact order:
+
+```
+payload = compressed_angle_matrix
+        ‖ amplitude_proxy
+        ‖ phase_proxy
+        ‖ snr_vector
+        ‖ optional_csi_delta            (present iff flags.bit0 set)
+        ‖ optional_vendor_extension     (length 0 allowed)
+```
+
+Each section is `[u32 len_le][bytes...]`. The CRC32 covers all section bytes including length prefixes, but **not** the header.
+
+### 2.3 Privacy-class gating at serialization
+
+The serializer enforces these rules **before** writing any payload bytes:
+
+| `privacy_class` | `compressed_angle_matrix` | Identity-derived fields | Notes |
+|-----------------|---------------------------|-------------------------|-------|
+| 0 (`raw`) | full | full | **Local-only**, never serialized to a network sink |
+| 1 (`derived`) | downsampled to 8-bit, top-k subcarriers | full | Operator-acknowledged research mode |
+| 2 (`anonymous`, **default**) | absent (zero-length section) | absent | Production default |
+| 3 (`restricted`) | absent | absent + diagnostic-only | Equivalent to class 2 + suppresses `identity_risk_score` on the bus |
+
+The serializer returns `Err(BfldError::PrivacyViolation)` if the caller attempts to publish a class-0 frame through a network sink. This is enforced by a sink-type marker trait (`LocalSink` vs `NetworkSink`).
+
+### 2.4 Deterministic serialization
+
+Three guarantees:
+
+1. **Field order is fixed** by `#[repr(C, packed)]`.
+2. **Float quantization is canonical** — `quantization` byte values 1/2/3 use specified round-half-to-even with documented saturation; f32 (value 0) is forbidden over the wire (local-only).
+3. **CRC32 is computed last**, after all section bytes are placed.
+
+The witness test in `tests/determinism.rs` captures a 200-frame BFI fixture, serializes it 1,000 times across two threads, and verifies the BLAKE3 of the resulting byte stream is bit-identical.
+
+### 2.5 Magic value rationale
+
+`0xBF1D_0001` is chosen so that `bf1d` reads as "BFLD" in hex-dump output, easing wireshark / xxd debugging. The final `0001` is the major version; minor revisions bump `version` field.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- 40-byte header + compact payload fits comfortably in a 1500-byte MTU even at 4×4 MIMO with 256 subcarriers.
+- Serialization is `#[no_std]` compatible — same code can run on ESP32-S3 (when ESP-NOW transport is added under ADR-123 P2).
+- Witness-bundle integration is direct: the existing `archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py` pattern extends to a `bfld_verify.py` that consumes the same SHA-256 expected-hash file format.
+
+### Negative
+
+- `#[repr(C, packed)]` on the header means consumers must use `read_unaligned` — small ergonomic cost, mitigated by a `#[derive(BfldFrameAccess)]` proc-macro.
+- Reserved flag bits 2-15 lock in future-extension order; any new bit assignment is a version bump.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- The vendor-extension section allows downstream RuView cogs (e.g., `cog-pose-estimation`) to attach metadata without a header change, at the cost of CRC scope creep. Vendor sections are explicitly outside the witness hash.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Protobuf / FlatBuffers
+
+Rejected: schema evolution overhead, witness-hash instability across protoc versions, ~3× wire bloat for the small fixed-shape fields.
+
+### Alt 2: CBOR
+
+Rejected: deterministic CBOR (RFC 8949 §4.2) is achievable but the parser surface is large and tag handling is a footgun for the `no_std` ESP32 path.
+
+### Alt 3: Variable-width magic / no magic
+
+Rejected: receivers must distinguish BFLD frames from rvCSI `CsiFrame` and other RuView payloads on shared transports.
+
+### Alt 4: Move CRC32 to header
+
+Rejected: CRC must be computed after the payload, so its value would otherwise force a header rewrite; placing it last avoids a buffer-pass-back.

+- [ ] **AC1**: `BfldFrameHeader` size is exactly **86 bytes** (packed) on x86_64, aarch64, and xtensa-esp32s3. The size was initially documented as 40 bytes during ADR drafting — that was a counting error; the implementation in `wifi-densepose-bfld/src/frame.rs` enforces the correct value via `const_assert_eq!`.
+- [ ] **AC2**: 1,000 serializations of a fixed `BfiCapture` fixture produce a bit-identical BLAKE3 hash.

+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+ADR-118 declares three structural invariants for BFLD:
+
+- **I1**: Raw BFI never exits the node.
+- **I2**: Identity embedding is in-RAM-only.
+- **I3**: Cross-site identity correlation is cryptographically impossible.
+
+I1/I2 are enforced by sink typing and module visibility (ADR-119 §2.3). I3 requires a hash-rotation scheme that makes the same physical person produce **different** `rf_signature_hash` values across sites and across day boundaries, without any out-of-band coordination between sites.
+
+The existing `HA-PRIVACY` mode in ADR-115 already toggles between "full" and "anonymous" surfaces, but at a per-event granularity — not at a per-byte-field granularity. BFLD requires the latter because the `BfldFrame` payload mixes sensing data (publishable) and identity-derived data (non-publishable) in the same struct.
+
+The BFId paper (KIT, ACM CCS 2025) demonstrates that even a few minutes of BFI capture across the same site is sufficient to build a persistent biometric. The mitigation must be **structural**, not policy-dependent.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+### 2.1 The four privacy classes
+
+A single `privacy_class: u8` byte in the `BfldFrame` header (ADR-119 §2.1) selects one of four classes. The crate enforces field availability statically through marker types.
+
+| Class | Name | Use case | Available fields |
+|-------|------|----------|------------------|
+| **0** | `raw` | Local-only research, never networked | All fields, full-precision BFI matrix, identity embedding |
+| **1** | `derived` | Operator-acknowledged research over LAN | Downsampled angle matrix, full features, identity_risk_score, identity_embedding |
+| **2** | `anonymous` (**default**) | Production deployment | Aggregate sensing only: presence, motion, person_count, zone_id, confidence |
+| **3** | `restricted` | Care-home / regulated deployment | Class 2 minus `identity_risk_score` and `rf_signature_hash` |
+
+Default for new RuView nodes is class **2**. Operators must explicitly opt-down to class 1 via the existing `--research-mode` flag (ADR-115 §7); class 0 is reserved for `cargo test` and is unreachable from `wifi-densepose-sensing-server`.
+
+### 2.2 Enforcement via marker types
+
+```rust
+pub trait Sink {}
+
+pub trait LocalSink: Sink {}     // Allowed: classes 0,1,2,3
+pub trait NetworkSink: Sink {}   // Allowed: classes 1,2,3 (NOT class 0)
+pub trait MatterSink: NetworkSink {}  // Allowed: class 2,3 + cluster-filter (ADR-122)
+
+impl Emitter {
+    pub fn publish<S: NetworkSink>(&self, sink: &S, frame: BfldFrame)
+        -> Result<(), BfldError>
+    {
+        if frame.header.privacy_class == 0 {
+            return Err(BfldError::PrivacyViolation {
+                reason: "class 0 to NetworkSink",
+            });
+        }
+        // ... serialize and write
+    }
+}
+```
+
+The compiler refuses to call `publish` on a sink that doesn't impl `NetworkSink` with a class-0 frame because the runtime check is paired with a sink-marker check. Cross-sink frame routing requires an explicit class transition (see §2.4).
+
+### 2.3 BLAKE3 keyed hash rotation for `rf_signature_hash`
+
+The signature hash is computed as:
+
+```rust
+pub fn rf_signature_hash(
+    site_salt: &[u8; 32],       // generated on first boot, persisted in TPM/KMS
+    day_epoch: u32,             // floor(unix_time_utc / 86400)
+    features: &IdentityFeatures,
+) -> Hash {
+    let mut hasher = blake3::Hasher::new_keyed(site_salt);
+    hasher.update(&day_epoch.to_le_bytes());
+    hasher.update(&features.canonical_bytes());
+    hasher.finalize()
+}
+```
+
+**Structural cross-site isolation**: because `site_salt` is a 256-bit random secret unique to each node and never transmitted, two sites observing the same physical person produce uncorrelated hashes. There is no key the operator (or an attacker who compromises one node) can use to bridge sites. This is stronger than a policy-based "do not share" rule because the bridge **cannot be computed**.
+
+**Daily rotation**: `day_epoch` flipping at UTC midnight forces the hash of the same person to change once per day. Multi-day correlation requires re-acquiring the biometric, which the rotation actively breaks.
+
+### 2.4 Class-transition transformer
+
+The only way a high-class frame becomes a lower-class frame is through `PrivacyGate::demote(frame, target_class)`. This function:
+
+1. Asserts the target class is strictly higher number than (or equal to) the input class.
+2. Zeroes the disallowed fields with `subtle::Zeroize`.
+3. Re-computes `payload_crc32`.
+4. Returns the new frame.
+
+There is no `promote` operation — a class-2 frame cannot be turned back into a class-1 frame, because the dropped fields were not retained anywhere reachable from the gate.
+
+### 2.5 `identity_embedding` lifecycle
+
+The embedding (output of the AETHER encoder, ADR-024) is held in a `subtle::Zeroizing<[f32; 128]>` ring buffer of 64 entries (≈30 KB). Entries are:
+
+1. Written by the encoder on each capture window.
+2. Consumed by `identity_risk_score` computation (ADR-121).
+3. **Never** written to disk, MQTT, or any other I/O sink — there is no `Serialize` impl on the type.
+4. Overwritten by the ring (FIFO).
+
+A compile-time `#[forbid(serde::Serialize)]` lint on `IdentityEmbedding` ensures a future PR cannot accidentally add a `Serialize` derive.
+
+### 2.6 Default-deny field classification
+
+Every new field added to `BfldFrame` or `BfldEvent` must be tagged with `#[must_classify]` (a custom attribute macro). The macro fails compilation if the field is not listed in the per-class allow-list table. This forces future contributors to make an explicit privacy decision on every new field.
+
+### 2.7 Dual-ID-space contract for Soul Signature deployments
+
+Soul Signature (`docs/research/soul/`) is a consent-based biometric system that *intentionally* produces long-lived per-person identity. It cannot operate at the default class 2 — the identity_embedding it needs is structurally absent there. The contract:
+
+| Deployment mode | `privacy_class` | ID space for unenrolled bystanders | ID space for enrolled persons |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Default BFLD-only | 2 (anonymous) | Daily-rotated `rf_signature_hash` | n/a — no enrollment |
+| Soul Signature opt-in | **1 (derived)** | Daily-rotated `rf_signature_hash` (unchanged) | Long-lived opaque `person_id` from Soul Signature graph |
+| Restricted / care-home | 3 (restricted) | Suppressed | n/a — Soul Signature **disabled** at class 3 |
+
+Two ID spaces coexist with **no collision**: the rotating hash is the privacy-preserving identifier for everyone *not* on the consent roster; the stable `person_id` is reserved for enrolled subjects under their own GDPR/HIPAA mode. Soul Signature's `match_against_enrolled()` function consumes only the in-RAM `identity_embedding` (I2 still holds) and emits a `person_id` plus a calibrated similarity score; it never writes the embedding to disk or the wire. The class-1 requirement is enforced statically: the Soul Signature match API takes a `&IdentityEmbedding` parameter, which is only constructible when the BFLD crate is compiled with `--features soul-signature` against a class-1 frame.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- Cross-site identity correlation is **computationally impossible**, not merely "prohibited by policy". This is the strongest form of privacy guarantee available without a TEE.
+- Default-deny via `#[must_classify]` prevents the common pattern of "a new field shipped, then six months later we noticed it was identity-leaky".
+- `identity_embedding` cannot be serialized by accident — the type system carries the constraint.
+- The class transition transformer makes the data lifecycle explicit and auditable.
+
+### Negative
+
+- `site_salt` storage requires either a TPM (ADR-095/096 rvCSI platform feature gap) or a secrets file with strict mode. Loss of `site_salt` makes historical witness comparisons impossible — by design, but a documentation hazard.
+- `#[must_classify]` is a custom proc-macro; another moving part in the build.
+- Operators wanting multi-day analytics must work in aggregates only, not on per-individual signatures.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- Class 0 is `cargo test`-only. Some CI runners may need an explicit feature flag to compile class-0 paths.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Single boolean `privacy_mode` flag (status quo from ADR-115)
+
+Rejected: insufficient granularity. The frame mixes publishable sensing with non-publishable identity, so the gate must operate at field-level, not event-level.
+
+### Alt 2: SHA-256 instead of BLAKE3
+
+Rejected: BLAKE3 keyed-hash mode is ~5× faster on the ESP32-S3 / Cortex-M cores and the security margin is equivalent for this use case. SHA-256 has no keyed-hash mode (HMAC-SHA256 is the alternative; works but is slower).
+
+### Alt 3: Hash rotation on the hour, not the day
+
+Rejected: hourly rotation breaks legitimate "person was here in the morning, came back in the afternoon" use-cases that operators may want. Day boundary is the compromise.
+
+### Alt 4: Per-event nonces instead of daily epoch
+
+Rejected: per-event nonces would force the consumer to track which events came from the same person within a session, which leaks identity information by structure. The day epoch preserves a coarse temporal grouping without leaking finer-grained identity.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: Calling `Emitter::publish` with a `privacy_class = 0` frame on a `NetworkSink` returns `BfldError::PrivacyViolation`.
+- [ ] **AC2**: Two BFLD nodes with different `site_salt` values observing the same simulated person produce `rf_signature_hash` values whose Hamming distance is ≥ 120 bits over 100 trials (statistical isolation test).
+- [ ] **AC3**: A frame with `privacy_class = 3` has both `identity_risk_score` and `rf_signature_hash` absent from the serialized payload.
+- [ ] **AC4**: `PrivacyGate::demote(class_1_frame, target=0)` fails to compile (compile-fail test).
+- [ ] **AC5**: A PR adding a new field to `BfldEvent` without `#[must_classify]` fails the build.
+- [ ] **AC6**: `IdentityEmbedding` has no `Serialize` impl reachable from any public function.
+- [ ] **AC7**: Dropping an `IdentityEmbedding` value zeroizes its memory (verified by a debugger-readable test under `cargo test --features zeroize-validation`).

+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+BFLD's distinguishing primitive is the `identity_risk_score` — a scalar that says **"is this capture window currently capable of identifying a specific person?"**. The score has two consumers:
+
+1. **The operator** — exposed as an HA diagnostic sensor (ADR-122). A spike from the long-term baseline indicates the RF environment has shifted toward a higher-leakage regime (new AP firmware, denser MIMO, attacker-grade sniffer in range).
+2. **The privacy gate** (ADR-120) — when the score crosses a configurable threshold, the gate downgrades the active `privacy_class` automatically (e.g., 2 → 3) until the score recovers.
+
+The score must be:
+- **Bounded** in `[0, 1]` for HA gauge entities.
+- **Calibrated** against actual re-ID success rate, ideally on the KIT BFId dataset.
+- **Computable on-device** at ≥ 1 Hz on a Pi 5 core or an aarch64 cognitum-v0.
+- **Stable** — small environmental changes should not produce wild swings; the score is for slow-moving regime detection, not per-frame chatter.
+
+ADR-086 (edge novelty gate) establishes a precedent for an on-device gate primitive. BFLD's risk scoring borrows the gate-pattern but with identity leakage as the trigger condition.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+### 2.1 Nine features (from BFLD spec §5)
+
+The features are computed over a sliding window of `W = 32` BFI frames (≈3 s at 10 Hz):
+
+| Feature | Definition | Source |
+|---------|------------|--------|
+| `mean_angle_delta` | mean( ‖ Φ_t − Φ_{t-1} ‖ over subcarriers ) | extractor |
+| `subcarrier_variance` | var( ‖ Φ ‖ over subcarrier axis ) | extractor |
+| `temporal_entropy` | Shannon entropy of angle-bin histogram over W | extractor |
+| `doppler_proxy` | FFT peak magnitude of mean-angle time series | features.rs |
+| `path_stability` | 1 − ‖ Φ_t − median(Φ_{t-W..t}) ‖ / scale | features.rs |
+| `cross_antenna_correlation` | mean Pearson correlation across n_tx × n_rx pairs | features.rs |
+| `burst_motion_score` | high-pass-filtered angular velocity, soft-thresholded | features.rs |
+| `stationarity_score` | 1 − rolling KL divergence over W/2 vs W | features.rs |
+| `identity_separability_score` | top-1 cosine to nearest AETHER cluster centroid | identity_risk.rs |
+
+The first eight are sensing features (also used by the presence/motion pipeline). Only the ninth depends on the AETHER embedding and therefore on `identity_class >= 1`.
+
+### 2.2 Identity risk formula
+
+```rust
+pub fn identity_risk_score(
+    sep: f32,    // identity_separability_score, [0, 1]
+    stab: f32,   // temporal_stability, [0, 1] = ema(path_stability, alpha=0.1)
+    consist: f32,// cross_perspective_consistency, [0, 1] = multistatic.rs
+    conf: f32,   // sample_confidence, [0, 1] = f(SNR, n_subcarriers, n_rx)
+) -> f32 {
+    // Clamp inputs, then multiplicative combination — any factor near 0 dominates.
+    let s = sep.clamp(0.0, 1.0);
+    let t = stab.clamp(0.0, 1.0);
+    let p = consist.clamp(0.0, 1.0);
+    let c = conf.clamp(0.0, 1.0);
+    (s * t * p * c).clamp(0.0, 1.0)
+}
+```
+
+Multiplicative combination is chosen so that **any** weak factor (e.g., very low SNR ⇒ low `conf`) collapses the score toward 0. This matches the privacy intent: when the system is uncertain, the score should be low and the operator should not be alarmed.
+
+### 2.3 Calibration target
+
+The score is calibrated against re-ID success rate on a held-out test split of the KIT BFId dataset. A piecewise-linear isotonic regression maps raw scores into a calibrated `[0, 1]` band where `score ≥ 0.8` corresponds to `>80%` re-ID accuracy on a 5-second window in the calibration dataset.
+
+Calibration parameters live in `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/data/risk_calibration.toml` and are versioned independently of the code. A regression update is a content-only PR.
+
+### 2.4 Coherence gate
+
+The coherence gate (per ADR-029 `coherence_gate.rs` pattern) consumes the risk score and emits one of four actions:
+
+```rust
+pub enum GateAction {
+    Accept,           // score < 0.5, publish normally
+    PredictOnly,      // 0.5 <= score < 0.7, publish but flag confidence
+    Reject,           // 0.7 <= score < 0.9, drop the event
+    Recalibrate,      // score >= 0.9, drop AND rotate site_salt
+}
+```
+
+The `Recalibrate` action triggers a forced site-salt rotation — an aggressive response to a sustained high-risk regime. It costs the operator continuity of long-term aggregate analytics but is the right answer to an attacker-grade sniffer arriving in range.
+
+### 2.5 Hysteresis
+
+To prevent oscillation around the gate thresholds, the gate uses ±0.05 hysteresis and a 5-second debounce. A score must cross the boundary by the hysteresis margin and persist for the debounce window before the gate action changes.
+
+### 2.6 Soul Signature interaction — Recalibrate exemption and enrollment-quality gate
+
+Soul Signature (`docs/research/soul/`) intentionally exists in a high-separability regime — the whole point of its 60-second enrollment protocol is to push `identity_separability_score` toward 1.0. The default coherence gate (§2.4) would therefore fire `Recalibrate` constantly inside Soul Signature zones, rotating `site_salt` every few seconds and breaking enrollment.
+
+Two integrations resolve this:
+
+1. **Recalibrate exemption.** When the gate is about to fire `Recalibrate`, it consults a `SoulMatchOracle` (provided by the Soul Signature crate when compiled with `--features soul-signature`). If the oracle reports that the current high-separability cluster matches an enrolled `person_id` above the Soul Signature acceptance threshold, the gate downgrades to `PredictOnly` instead. The high score is the *intended* outcome of a successful match, not an attack indicator. Without the `soul-signature` feature, the oracle is a no-op stub returning `MatchOutcome::NotEnrolled`, so the gate behaves exactly per §2.4.
+
+2. **Enrollment-quality gate.** Soul Signature's enrollment protocol (`scanning-process.md` §3) requires that the sensing zone meet a minimum identity-leakage regime — too low, and the resulting signature is unreliable. The BFLD `identity_risk_score` is exactly the right signal. Soul Signature gates enrollment on `score >= ENROLL_MIN` (default `0.65`) sustained over the 60-second window. If the score drops below threshold mid-enrollment, the protocol aborts and the operator is prompted to re-attempt in better RF conditions.
+
+The exemption is asymmetric: it suppresses `Recalibrate` only for known-enrolled matches. Unknown high-separability clusters (a real attacker-grade sniffer, or an unenrolled person whose identity is unexpectedly leaky) still trigger `Recalibrate` as designed.
+
+### 2.7 Compute budget
+
+| Stage | Target latency | Implementation |
+|-------|----------------|----------------|
+| Feature extraction (8 features) | < 3 ms per window | ndarray + nalgebra; vectorized over subcarriers |
+| Separability (cosine to centroids) | < 5 ms per window | RuVector RaBitQ index (ADR-085) over ≤ 1k centroids |
+| Risk score | < 0.1 ms | scalar multiplicative |
+| Gate decision + hysteresis | < 0.1 ms | scalar |
+
+Total p95 ≤ 10 ms per window on a Pi 5 core (8 ms target). Headroom on cognitum-v0 (Pi 5 + Hailo) is ample; ESP32-S3 hosts only the extraction stage (features computed; risk score is host-side per ADR-123). The `SoulMatchOracle` lookup (§2.6) adds < 1 ms when the `soul-signature` feature is enabled (RaBitQ index over enrolled centroids).
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- The risk score becomes a first-class diagnostic surface for operators and a structural input to the privacy gate — both consumers from a single computation.
+- Multiplicative combination is conservative under uncertainty; the system is biased toward "report low risk when unsure", which is the right default.
+- Calibration is a content-only update — no recompile needed when the calibration file changes.
+- The recalibration gate action gives the system a self-healing response to a sniffer arrival without operator intervention.
+
+### Negative
+
+- Calibration requires the KIT BFId dataset; without it the score is uncalibrated and serves only as an internal trigger, not a publishable signal.
+- Multiplicative scoring can be dominated by `sample_confidence`, which is sensitive to channel conditions. A persistent low-SNR environment will keep the published score near 0 even when the underlying separability is high — an under-reporting failure mode that the documentation must call out.
+- The recalibrate action breaks historical hash continuity by design; an operator who wants long-term aggregates needs to know they will see a discontinuity on recalibrate events.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- The nine features overlap with the existing CSI pipeline. BFLD computes them on BFI; the CSI pipeline computes them on CSI. Both can be fused via `cross_perspective_consistency`.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Additive scoring (`(s + t + p + c) / 4`)
+
+Rejected: a sample with high separability but very low confidence would still produce a moderate score, which over-reports risk in degraded RF conditions.
+
+### Alt 2: Maximum scoring (`max(s, t, p, c)`)
+
+Rejected: over-reports risk because any single high factor pins the output, even if the others contradict it.
+
+### Alt 3: Learned scoring (a small MLP)
+
+Rejected for this ADR: introduces an opaque model whose output cannot be audited from first principles. The multiplicative formula is simple, conservative, and directly explainable to operators. A learned model is a future option once enough calibration data is in hand.
+
+### Alt 4: Per-feature thresholds instead of a continuous score
+
+Rejected: continuous score is needed for the HA gauge entity and for downstream calibration. Per-feature thresholds would force operators to interpret nine separate binaries.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: All nine features are computed in `< 8 ms` p95 per window on a Pi 5 core.
+- [ ] **AC2**: `identity_risk_score` is monotonic non-decreasing in any single input when the other three are held constant.
+- [ ] **AC3**: Calibration regression on the KIT BFId test split: `score ≥ 0.8` corresponds to ≥ 80% re-ID accuracy ± 5%.
+- [ ] **AC4**: The coherence gate emits `Recalibrate` if score is ≥ 0.9 for ≥ 5 seconds.
+- [ ] **AC5**: Hysteresis prevents action oscillation across ± 0.05 of a threshold within a 5-second window.
+- [ ] **AC6**: At `privacy_class = 3`, the risk score is computed but not published to MQTT (kept local for the gate only).
+- [ ] **AC7**: A reproducible 1,000-frame synthetic fixture produces a deterministic score sequence (bit-identical across runs).

+| **Tracking issue** | TBD |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+ADR-115 shipped the RuView Home Assistant surface (21 entities, MQTT auto-discovery, mTLS, privacy mode) on the `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` Rust binary. ADR-116 is packaging this as the `cog-ha-matter` Cognitum Seed cog. BFLD must integrate into this surface without expanding the privacy-sensitive footprint already in production.
+
+The integration must:
+
+1. **Extend HA-DISCO** to advertise BFLD entities via the existing MQTT-discovery scheme.
+2. **Reject identity fields at the Matter boundary** — Matter exposes occupancy/motion/people-count only, never `identity_risk_score` or `rf_signature_hash`.
+3. **Route MQTT topics by privacy class** — class-2/3 events on the public topic tree, class-1 events on a gated `research/` subtree, class-0 events nowhere.
+4. **Federate cleanly into cognitum-v0** — BFLD events from multiple nodes flow through `cognitum-rvf-agent` (port 9004 per CLAUDE.local.md) for cross-node analytics, but identity-derived fields are stripped at the **publishing-node boundary**, not at the federation hub.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+### 2.1 HA entity surface (six new entities per node)
+
+The cog republishes the existing 21 ADR-115 entities and adds:
+
+| Entity ID | Type | Source field | Class gate | Diagnostic |
+|-----------|------|--------------|------------|------------|
+| `binary_sensor.<node>_bfld_presence` | occupancy | `BfldEvent.presence` | ≥ 2 | no |
+| `sensor.<node>_bfld_motion` | gauge `[0,1]` | `BfldEvent.motion` | ≥ 2 | no |
+| `sensor.<node>_bfld_person_count` | int | `BfldEvent.person_count` | ≥ 2 | no |
+| `sensor.<node>_bfld_zone_activity` | enum | `BfldEvent.zone_activity` | ≥ 2 | no |
+| `sensor.<node>_bfld_identity_risk` | gauge `[0,1]` | `BfldEvent.identity_risk_score` | == 2 only | **yes** |
+| `sensor.<node>_bfld_confidence` | gauge `[0,1]` | `BfldEvent.confidence` | ≥ 2 | yes |
+
+The `identity_risk` entity is exposed only under privacy class 2 and is flagged `entity_category: diagnostic` so HA dashboards do not promote it to a main-card sensor by default. Under class 3 it is computed but not published (per ADR-121 §2.4).
+
+MQTT discovery payload follows the ADR-115 schema, plus a `bfld_version` attribute matching the `BfldFrameHeader::version` field.
+
+### 2.2 MQTT topic tree
+
+```
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/presence/state              # class >= 2
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/motion/state                # class >= 2
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/person_count/state          # class >= 2
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/zone_activity/state         # class >= 2
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/confidence/state            # class >= 2
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/identity_risk/state         # class == 2 only
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/raw                         # class 1, OFF by default
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/availability                # online/offline marker
+```
+
+`raw` (class-1 derived BFI) is **not present** in the discovery payload at all — operators must explicitly subscribe and acknowledge the research-mode caveat. The publishing crate emits `MQTT_RAW_DISABLED` to availability when `privacy_class < 1`.
+
+### 2.3 Mosquitto ACL example
+
+```
+# Default-deny everything not explicitly granted
+pattern read  ruview/+/bfld/+/state
+pattern read  ruview/+/bfld/availability
+
+# Public roles cannot read identity_risk or raw
+user public
+deny  read ruview/+/bfld/identity_risk/state
+deny  read ruview/+/bfld/raw
+
+# Operator role can read identity_risk for diagnostics
+user operator
+allow read ruview/+/bfld/identity_risk/state
+
+# Research role can read raw (requires class-1 operation)
+user research
+allow read ruview/+/bfld/raw
+```
+
+The cog ships a default ACL template under `cog-ha-matter/etc/mosquitto.acl.d/bfld.conf` for operators who use the embedded broker (ADR-116 §2.2).
+
+### 2.4 Matter cluster boundary
+
+`cog-ha-matter` exposes BFLD via **three Matter clusters** only:
+
+| Matter cluster | Source entity | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Occupancy Sensing (0x0406) | `binary_sensor.<node>_bfld_presence` | reports binary occupancy + uncertainty (mapped from `confidence`) |
+| Boolean State (0x0045) | `sensor.<node>_bfld_motion >= 0.3` | thresholded; raw motion not exposed |
+| Occupancy Sensing extension | `sensor.<node>_bfld_person_count` | uses occupancy-sensor count where Matter spec supports |
+
+**Explicitly NOT exposed via Matter**:
+
+- `identity_risk_score`
+- `rf_signature_hash`
+- `identity_embedding`
+- `raw` BFI
+- `zone_activity` (zone IDs are site-specific and Matter is a cross-site surface)
+- `confidence` (HA-only diagnostic)
+
+The Matter filter is implemented in `cog-ha-matter/src/matter/bfld_filter.rs` as a `MatterSink` trait impl that rejects classes 0 and 1 at compile time (via ADR-120 §2.2 marker types).
+
+### 2.5 Federation with cognitum-v0
+
+`cognitum-rvf-agent` (port 9004) receives BFLD events from multiple nodes. The events arriving at the federation hub are **already class-2/3** — identity-derived fields were stripped at each publishing node. The hub does not see and cannot reconstruct raw BFI or identity embeddings.
+
+The federation contract:
+
+| At publishing node | At cognitum-rvf-agent |
+|---|---|
+| Strip class-0/1 fields per ADR-120 | Receive class-2/3 events only |
+| Rotate `rf_signature_hash` per ADR-120 §2.3 | Aggregate counts; **do not** correlate hashes across sites |
+| Sign event with node Ed25519 key | Verify signature; reject unsigned events |
+
+A `federation-witness` script (extending ADR-028) runs nightly on the hub and proves that no class-0/1 fields appeared in any received event over the previous 24 h.
+
+### 2.6 HA blueprints (shipped with the cog)
+
+Three operator-ready blueprints under `cog-ha-matter/blueprints/`:
+
+1. **Presence-driven lighting** — `binary_sensor.*_bfld_presence` ⇒ `light.turn_on/off` with configurable hold time.
+2. **Motion-aware HVAC** — `sensor.*_bfld_motion > 0.3` ⇒ raise HVAC setpoint by ΔT.
+3. **Identity-risk anomaly notification** — `sensor.*_bfld_identity_risk` exceeds rolling z-score threshold ⇒ HA `notify.*` to the operator with the originating node and the 7-day baseline.
+
+### 2.7 Soul Signature deployment posture
+
+When the cog is compiled with `--features soul-signature`, two additional HA entities are exposed **at class 1 only**, and **never** over Matter:
+
+| Entity ID | Type | Source | Class gate | Matter |
+|-----------|------|--------|------------|--------|
+| `sensor.<node>_soul_match_id` | string (opaque `person_id`) | Soul Signature match oracle | == 1 only | **rejected** |
+| `sensor.<node>_soul_match_score` | gauge `[0,1]` | Match similarity | == 1 only | **rejected** |
+| `sensor.<node>_soul_enrollment_quality` | gauge `[0,1]` | Mirror of `identity_risk_score` during enrollment | == 1 only | **rejected** |
+
+These entities are part of the consent-based diagnostic surface for operators running Soul Signature deployments (care homes with explicit GDPR Art. 9 basis, employment with consent, etc.). The Matter cluster boundary in §2.4 already rejects them by type — the `MatterSink` impl only accepts class-2/3 frames, so `soul_match_id` is structurally unreachable through Matter.
+
+Class-3 deployments **disable Soul Signature** entirely: the `match_against_enrolled()` call returns `MatchOutcome::Suppressed` and no soul entities are published. This makes class 3 the correct setting for any deployment where consent is uncertain or where regulators require Soul Signature to be unavailable.
+
+A fourth blueprint ships only when `--features soul-signature` is enabled:
+
+4. **Enrolled-person arrival notification** — `sensor.*_soul_match_id` transitions to a non-null value ⇒ HA `notify.*` to the enrolled person's configured contact (typically themselves or a designated caregiver). Default off; operator must opt in per enrolled person.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- Six new HA entities give operators a complete BFLD diagnostic dashboard without leaking identity.
+- Matter exposure is structurally narrow — the cluster-filter implementation cannot accidentally expose identity fields because the type system rejects them.
+- The default ACL template gives operators a working privacy posture out of the box.
+- The federation contract makes it explicit that the hub cannot reconstruct identity even from the union of all node events.
+
+### Negative
+
+- The `identity_risk` HA entity exists only under class 2. Operators who run class 3 deployments cannot see the score even in their own dashboard. This is correct but may surprise care-home installers; documentation must be clear.
+- Three Matter clusters is conservative — some HA users may want the count exposed as a percentage or rate, which Matter does not support natively.
+- HA-blueprint coverage is intentionally small; operators wanting custom automations must work through the YAML surface.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- The federation witness script runs nightly. A short-duration leak between witnesses is possible but bounded — any successful exfiltration of class-1 fields would still need to be reconstructed into identity, which the daily hash rotation breaks.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Expose `identity_risk` over Matter (Generic Sensor cluster)
+
+Rejected: Matter is a cross-vendor surface; exposing identity-risk there leaks the score to every Matter controller in the home, including third-party hubs the operator may not control. Keep it HA-internal.
+
+### Alt 2: One unified MQTT topic `ruview/<node>/bfld` with JSON payload
+
+Rejected: per-entity topics are the HA-DISCO convention (ADR-115) and let ACLs be field-specific. A unified topic forces an all-or-nothing read policy.
+
+### Alt 3: Federate raw BFI to cognitum-v0 for cross-node analytics
+
+Rejected: violates ADR-120 I1 (raw never leaves the node). Aggregates are sufficient for cross-node analytics; raw centralization is a hard no.
+
+### Alt 4: Default `entity_category: diagnostic = false` for `identity_risk`
+
+Rejected: promoting `identity_risk` to a main-card sensor would surprise operators with an identity-adjacent gauge on their main dashboard. Diagnostic category is the right default.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: HA auto-discovery publishes six new entities per node on first connect; HA recognizes all six.
+- [ ] **AC2**: Under privacy class 3, `sensor.<node>_bfld_identity_risk` is absent from the MQTT discovery payload.
+- [ ] **AC3**: `MatterSink::publish` rejects any frame at compile time when the source has `privacy_class < 2`.
+- [ ] **AC4**: The default mosquitto ACL denies `read ruview/+/bfld/identity_risk/state` to the `public` user role.
+- [ ] **AC5**: Three HA blueprints install cleanly into a fresh HA install and trigger their configured actions against a mock BFLD event stream.
+- [ ] **AC6**: The federation-witness script detects an injected class-1 field in a synthetic event and exits non-zero.
+- [ ] **AC7**: Matter occupancy-sensing cluster reports presence within 1 s of an HA `binary_sensor.*_bfld_presence` state change.

+| **Tracking issue** | TBD |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+ADR-118 declares that BFLD captures BFI from commodity WiFi 5/6 traffic. The question this sub-ADR answers is: **on which hardware, with which adapter, and against which firmware limitations**.
+
+### 1.1 ESP32-S3 BFI capability gap
+
+The ESP32 capability audit (ADR-028) and the ESP32-S3 / C6 firmware (`firmware/esp32-csi-node/`, ADR-110) confirm that the Espressif WiFi API exposes **CSI** capture (`esp_wifi_set_csi_*`) but does not expose **raw 802.11 management-frame capture** in monitor mode for non-self-addressed CBFR reports. The S3 sees the CBFR frames its own AP-link generates (when it acts as a beamformer), but it cannot promiscuously sniff CBFR frames between other STA/AP pairs in the neighborhood.
+
+The C6 (ESP32-C6 with RISC-V + Wi-Fi 6) has a more flexible RF subsystem but the same software-API constraint at the time of writing.
+
+### 1.2 Pi 5 / Nexmon as the production capture host
+
+The rvCSI platform (ADR-095/096) already vendors a Nexmon-based adapter (`rvcsi-adapter-nexmon`) that captures CSI from BCM43455c0 chips (Pi 5 / Pi 4 / Pi 3B+). Nexmon patches the firmware to surface CSI to userspace and **also surface CBFR frames** — the BFI extension is the same code path with a different filter.
+
+cognitum-v0 (Pi 5 in the fleet, per CLAUDE.local.md) is already running Nexmon + the rvCSI runtime. It is the natural BFLD capture host.
+
+### 1.3 What we need from each hardware tier
+
+| Tier | Role | BFI capture | CSI capture | Notes |
+|------|------|-------------|-------------|-------|
+| ESP32-S3 / C6 | Sensing leaf | **no** | yes | Continues providing CSI to the existing pipeline |
+| Pi 5 / Nexmon | BFLD host | **yes** | yes (via Nexmon) | Primary BFLD capture |
+| ruvultra (RTX 5080 + AX210) | Training / dev | yes (via AX210 monitor mode) | yes | Dev capture; not production |
+| cognitum-v0 (Pi 5) | Appliance | **yes** (production) | yes | Production BFLD host |
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+### 2.1 Production capture path: Pi 5 / Nexmon
+
+The BFLD production capture path is implemented as a new module in the vendored rvCSI submodule:
+
+```
+vendor/rvcsi/crates/rvcsi-adapter-nexmon/
+└── src/
+    ├── lib.rs
+    ├── csi.rs                  # existing CSI capture
+    └── bfi.rs                  # NEW — CBFR capture, exports BfiCapture
+```
+
+The new `bfi.rs` parses CBFR frames (VHT or HE) from the Nexmon-patched firmware's userspace stream, extracts Φ/ψ angle matrices, and emits a `BfiCapture` struct that feeds the BFLD crate's extractor (ADR-118 §2.1, ADR-119).
+
+The patch lives in the rvcsi submodule (`github.com/ruvnet/rvcsi`) and is shipped as `rvcsi-adapter-nexmon ^0.3.5` to crates.io. The wifi-densepose workspace consumes the published crate (or the submodule path during development).
+
+### 2.2 BFLD crate adapter trait
+
+`wifi-densepose-bfld` defines a `BfiCaptureAdapter` trait:
+
+```rust
+pub trait BfiCaptureAdapter: Send + 'static {
+    type Error: std::error::Error + Send + Sync + 'static;
+    fn capture(&mut self) -> Result<Option<BfiCapture>, Self::Error>;
+    fn capabilities(&self) -> AdapterCapabilities;
+}
+
+pub struct AdapterCapabilities {
+    pub supports_he: bool,           // 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6)
+    pub supports_160mhz: bool,
+    pub max_n_rx: u8,
+    pub host_kind: HostKind,         // Pi5Nexmon | Ax210Linux | EspS3Local | Mock
+}
+```
+
+Three impls ship initially:
+
+- `NexmonBfiAdapter` — Pi 5 / Nexmon (production)
+- `Ax210BfiAdapter` — Linux + AX210 in monitor mode (dev / training, ruvultra)
+- `MockBfiAdapter` — replay fixture for tests and CI
+
+A future fourth impl (`EspS3LocalAdapter`) is reserved for the day Espressif exposes promiscuous CBFR — it captures only the S3's own AP-link BFI for local self-reporting.
+
+### 2.3 Capture-side privacy boundary
+
+Per ADR-120 I1, raw BFI never leaves the capturing host. The adapter must therefore live on **the same physical box** as the BFLD crate's extractor and privacy gate. The architecture pattern:
+
+```
+[ Pi 5 / cognitum-v0 ]
+├── nexmon firmware (kernel)
+├── rvcsi-adapter-nexmon (userspace, captures BFI)
+├── wifi-densepose-bfld (extracts, scores, gates)
+│       └── privacy_gate → class-2/3 frames only
+└── wifi-densepose-sensing-server (publishes MQTT + Matter)
+```
+
+A network-mode adapter that streams raw BFI from a remote capture host is **explicitly forbidden**. The adapter trait does not include any "remote URL" parameter.
+
+### 2.4 Channel / bandwidth coverage
+
+The Nexmon adapter is configured by the existing `rvcsi-adapter-nexmon` channel-hopping schedule (ADR-095 §3.2). For BFLD it adds:
+
+- Filter for VHT CBFR (action frame, category 21, action 0) and HE CBFR (category 30, action 0).
+- Per-channel BFI session-tracking — the same beamformer/beamformee pair across a channel hop is reconciled by AP MAC + STA MAC.
+
+### 2.5 ESP32-S3 local self-reporting (deferred)
+
+For deployments without a Pi 5 / cognitum-v0 nearby, a degraded BFLD mode runs on the ESP32-S3 itself:
+
+- Captures only its own AP-link CBFR (self-addressed).
+- Computes features over the limited window.
+- Reports a coarsened `presence` + `motion` only — no `identity_risk_score` (insufficient sample diversity).
+- Emits `BfldFrame` at `privacy_class = 2` with a `flags.bit3 = self_only` marker.
+
+This path is implemented in firmware as part of P2 / P3 of the ADR-118 rollout, after the Pi 5 path is stable. Effort is small (firmware path reuses the existing CSI capture loop) but the value is also low until ESP32 firmware exposes promiscuous CBFR — which is a Espressif-IDF roadmap item, not under project control.
+
+### 2.6 Dev path: ruvultra / AX210
+
+For local dev iteration on the Windows / ruvultra box, the AX210 adapter provides a workable capture path on Linux (ruvultra is Ubuntu 6.17 per CLAUDE.local.md). The AX210 supports 802.11ax + monitor mode with the `iwlwifi` driver patches that have landed upstream. This path is for training-data collection and dev testing, not production.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- BFLD ships as a production-ready surface on cognitum-v0 day one — no new hardware procurement.
+- The adapter-trait design lets new capture paths (AX211, MediaTek Filogic, etc.) slot in without changes to the BFLD crate.
+- The capture-side privacy boundary is structural: there is no remote-capture code path, so a future PR cannot accidentally introduce one.
+- ruvultra's AX210 path unblocks training and dev iteration on Linux without depending on the Pi 5 fleet.
+
+### Negative
+
+- BFLD's full pipeline depends on cognitum-v0 (or another Pi 5 / Nexmon host) being present in the deployment. Operators without a Pi 5 get only the degraded ESP32-S3 self-reporting path (limited utility).
+- Nexmon is a third-party kernel module; tracking upstream patches is ongoing maintenance.
+- The CBFR frame format differs between VHT (802.11ac) and HE (802.11ax); the parser must support both, and any 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) deployment will require an additional parser path.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- ruvultra dev path uses AX210; the AX210 is not the production NIC, so dev/prod parity is via the fixture replay + the Nexmon adapter on cognitum-v0.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Centralized capture host streams raw BFI to RuView nodes
+
+Rejected: violates ADR-120 I1 (raw never leaves the capture host). The capture host **is** the BFLD node; there is no separation.
+
+### Alt 2: Wait for Espressif promiscuous CBFR support
+
+Rejected: indefinite timeline outside project control. The Pi 5 / Nexmon path is shippable today.
+
+### Alt 3: Custom Pi 5 firmware fork instead of Nexmon
+
+Rejected: forking BCM firmware is a huge maintenance burden and Nexmon already does what we need.
+
+### Alt 4: Only ship the ESP32-S3 self-reporting path
+
+Rejected: insufficient sample diversity for `identity_risk_score`. The whole point of BFLD is to measure identity leakage; a self-only path cannot do that meaningfully.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: `NexmonBfiAdapter` captures ≥ 100 valid CBFR frames per minute from a 2-AP-3-STA test bench on a Pi 5 (cognitum-v0).
+- [ ] **AC2**: VHT (802.11ac) and HE (802.11ax) CBFR frames are both parsed; mixed-PHY captures produce correctly-typed `BfiCapture` outputs.
+- [ ] **AC3**: 20/40/80/160 MHz channel widths are all supported (one fixture each in `tests/`).
+- [ ] **AC4**: `BfiCaptureAdapter` trait has no method accepting a remote URL or socket address.
+- [ ] **AC5**: ESP32-S3 self-only adapter compiles `#[no_std]` and produces a `BfldFrame` with `flags.bit3 = self_only` set, no `identity_risk_score` field.
+- [ ] **AC6**: AX210 adapter on ruvultra captures CBFR for at least one fixture-generating dev session.
+- [ ] **AC7**: Capture loop sustains 10 Hz BFI frame rate on cognitum-v0 without dropping frames over a 10-minute soak test.

+
+## 1. Context
+
+### 1.1 The access-layer gap
+
+The RuView / wifi-densepose Rust stack exposes sensing data through three surfaces: a Tokio/Axum HTTP REST API and WebSocket at `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (ADR-055); an MQTT namespace under `ruview/<node_id>/*` (ADR-115); and an rvCSI edge runtime (ADR-095/096). None of these surfaces speaks Model Context Protocol (MCP).
+
+MCP is the dominant inter-process contract through which AI assistants (Claude, GPT, Codex) invoke external capabilities in 2026. Without an MCP bridge, RuView's sensing primitives are invisible to AI-driven automation workflows. An agent cannot ask "who is in the room?" or "subscribe me to fall alerts" without bespoke HTTP integration code in every consuming agent.
+
+Two concrete user stories that SENSE-BRIDGE resolves:
+
+1. A developer has a Claude Code session and wants to call `vitals.get_heart_rate` from a prompt — today this requires them to write an HTTP fetch, parse JSON, and handle WebSocket reconnect logic; with SENSE-BRIDGE they install `@ruvnet/rvagent` and the tool is available immediately via `claude mcp add rvagent`.
+2. A ruflo-orchestrated multi-agent swarm needs real-world presence data to gate a workflow: SENSE-BRIDGE gives the swarm an MCP tool call with the same `mcp__claude-flow__*` signature pattern already used for all other ruflo tools (CLAUDE.md §Ruflo Automation Primitives).
+
+### 1.2 What rvagent is today
+
+Research of the ruvnet npm registry profile and the ruflo GitHub repository (issue #1689) establishes that **rvagent is not yet a published standalone npm package** as of 2026-05-24. The name "rvagent" appears in the ruflo project exclusively as a WASM artifact (`rvagent_wasm_bg.wasm`, 588 KB) bundled with the RuFlo Web UI (PR #1687). That artifact exports 13 WASM functions including `callMcp`, `executeTool`, `listTools`, `listGalleryTemplates`, `searchGalleryTemplates`, and `loadGalleryTemplate`. It is an in-browser MCP client runner, not a RuView-specific MCP server.
+
+There is no `rvagent` package on the npm registry as of this writing. The npm name is therefore available (Q1 in §8). The package name to register is `@ruvnet/rvagent` (scoped form, reduces name-squatting risk) or `rvagent` (unscoped form, simpler `npx` invocation). This ADR proposes `@ruvnet/rvagent`.
+
+The WASM `callMcp` / `executeTool` surface of the existing ruflo rvagent is the functional model for what the new npm package should expose in TypeScript — but the new package is a **server**, not a client, and its tools are RuView-domain-specific rather than general ruflo-gallery tools.
+
+### 1.3 MCP transport landscape as of 2026-05-24
+
+The MCP specification shipped version `2025-03-26` (Streamable HTTP) and `2025-06-18` (current stable) replacing the legacy `2024-11-05` HTTP+SSE transport. Key facts relevant to this ADR:
+
+- **stdio** remains the recommended local transport. Clients launch the MCP server as a subprocess; the server reads JSON-RPC from stdin and writes to stdout. This is the path `claude mcp add <name> -- npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` uses (CLAUDE.md §Quick Setup mirrors this pattern for the claude-flow MCP server).
+- **Streamable HTTP** (colloquially "SSE" in earlier documentation) replaces the deprecated pure-SSE transport. A single HTTP endpoint at e.g. `POST /mcp` accepts JSON-RPC requests and may respond with `Content-Type: text/event-stream` for streaming, or `application/json` for single-turn responses. The server must validate `Origin` headers and bind to `127.0.0.1` by default (MCP spec security requirement).
+- The `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` npm package (latest stable at time of writing) ships `Server`, `StdioServerTransport`, and `StreamableHTTPServerTransport`. A single `Server` instance can be connected to both transports simultaneously by calling `server.connect(transport)` for each.
+- The legacy `SSEServerTransport` from protocol version `2024-11-05` is deprecated but still ship-able for backwards compatibility with older Claude desktop clients. SENSE-BRIDGE will support it behind an `--legacy-sse` flag for a single release cycle, then remove it.
+
+### 1.4 ruvector npm surface
+
+The `ruvector` npm package (version 0.2.x, latest 0.2.25 as of ~2026-05-01) is a napi-rs WASM/Node.js binding of the RuVector Rust crate. It provides:
+
+- HNSW in-memory vector index (sub-0.5 ms query latency, 50 K+ QPS single-threaded)
+- 50+ attention mechanisms from the RuVector Rust crate
+- FlashAttention-3 SIMD path
+- Graph Neural Network support via `@ruvector/gnn`
+- Full TypeScript types; ships both ESM and CJS
+
+The `ruvector` package is already a dependency in the existing Rust workspace's napi-rs node bindings (`ruvector-node` crate, version 0.1.29 on crates.io). The npm package and the Rust crate are developed in the same repository (`github.com/ruvnet/ruvector`). SENSE-BRIDGE can depend on `ruvector` directly without needing to add new Rust FFI — the vector ops needed (HNSW index of pose keypoints, embedding storage for AETHER person re-ID) are already exposed in the npm package's public surface.
+
+### 1.5 ruflo integration context
+
+The project's `CLAUDE.md` documents the 3-tier model routing (ADR-026) and the `mcp__claude-flow__*` tool namespace. ruflo exposes 314 native MCP tools. SENSE-BRIDGE adds a new domain namespace `mcp__rvagent__*` that represents RuView sensing capabilities, parallel to but separate from the ruflo tools. The boundary is:
+- **ruflo**: agent orchestration, memory, swarm coordination, hooks, task management
+- **rvagent / SENSE-BRIDGE**: RuView-specific sensing — presence, vitals, pose, BFLD, semantic primitives
+
+ruflo can call rvagent tools via the standard MCP tool-call mechanism; rvagent does not depend on ruflo at runtime (but may optionally use ruflo memory namespaces for persistence).
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+Ship `@ruvnet/rvagent` as a standalone npm TypeScript library that:
+
+1. Exposes a **dual-transport MCP server** (stdio + Streamable HTTP) wrapping RuView sensing primitives.
+2. Uses `ruvector` (npm) as the vector storage layer for pose embeddings and AETHER-class semantic search, with no reimplementation of vector ops in TypeScript.
+3. Mirrors the Python `wifi_densepose.client.*` surface (ADR-117 P4 — `python/wifi_densepose/client/ws.py`, `mqtt.py`, `primitives.py`) in TypeScript for parity across runtimes.
+4. Integrates as a ruflo plugin via the `ruflo-plugin` manifest convention, exposing tools in the `mcp__rvagent__*` namespace callable by ruflo agents.
+5. Ships strict TypeScript source, ESM + CJS dual output, Node.js 20+ minimum, type definitions in the tarball, zero bundler required.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Transport comparison
+
+| Dimension | stdio | Streamable HTTP |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Launch mechanism** | Client forks `npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` as subprocess | Client POSTs to `http://host:port/mcp` |
+| **Primary use case** | Claude Code, Cursor, IDE plugins — local developer flow | Remote agents, ruflo swarms on separate hosts, browser-based dashboards |
+| **Connection state** | One client per server process; process dies with client | Multiple clients per server process; stateless or session-keyed |
+| **Streaming** | Newline-delimited JSON on stdout | `text/event-stream` response body |
+| **Auth** | None needed (process-level isolation) | Bearer token or mTLS required (per MCP spec security rules) |
+| **RuView sensing-server connectivity** | Server process holds a single WebSocket + MQTT connection to sensing-server; results forwarded to client via JSON-RPC | Server process holds a connection pool; session affinity via `Mcp-Session-Id` header |
+| **Tailscale fleet** | Works on local node only | Works across Tailscale fleet (cognitum-v0, cognitum-seed-1, ruvultra) with DNS name |
+| **Origin validation** | Not applicable | Required; server MUST reject cross-origin requests unless CORS policy explicitly permits |
+| **Resumability** | Not applicable (process is co-located) | Optional `Last-Event-ID` header for stream resumption after reconnect |
+| **Logging** | stderr — captured by Claude Code, displayed in conversation | Structured JSON to stdout, shipped to ruflo observability (ADR-observability) |
+| **Process lifecycle** | Ephemeral — exits when Claude Code session ends | Long-lived — suitable for always-on sensing daemon |
+| **When to choose** | Single developer, local ESP32 (COM9), quick scripting | Fleet deployment, multi-agent ruflo swarms, web dashboards |
+
+Both transports are served by the same `Server` instance from `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`. The only difference is the `Transport` class passed to `server.connect()`.
+
+---
+
+## 4. MCP tool catalog
+
+All tools are in the `ruview` namespace. Input schemas below are TypeScript interface stubs; output types mirror the Python dataclasses from `python/wifi_densepose/client/ws.py` and `primitives.py`.
+
+### 4.1 Tool catalog table
+
+| Tool name | Input interface | Return shape | RuView surface wrapped |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `ruview.presence.now` | `{ node_id?: string }` | `{ node_id: string; present: boolean; n_persons: number; confidence: number; timestamp_ms: number }` | `EdgeVitalsMessage.presence` / `EdgeVitalsMessage.n_persons` (ws.py:74-88) |
+| `ruview.vitals.get_breathing` | `{ node_id?: string; window_s?: number }` | `{ node_id: string; breathing_rate_bpm: number \| null; confidence: number; timestamp_ms: number }` | `EdgeVitalsMessage.breathing_rate_bpm` (ws.py:82) |
+| `ruview.vitals.get_heart_rate` | `{ node_id?: string; window_s?: number }` | `{ node_id: string; heartrate_bpm: number \| null; confidence: number; timestamp_ms: number }` | `EdgeVitalsMessage.heartrate_bpm` (ws.py:83) |
+| `ruview.vitals.get_all` | `{ node_id?: string }` | `EdgeVitalsResult` (all fields of `EdgeVitalsMessage` except `raw`) | Full `EdgeVitalsMessage` (ws.py:74-88) |
+| `ruview.pose.latest` | `{ node_id?: string }` | `{ node_id: string; persons: PosePersonResult[]; confidence: number; timestamp_ms: number }` | `PoseDataMessage` (ws.py:91-98) |
+| `ruview.pose.subscribe` | `{ node_id?: string; duration_s: number; callback_url?: string }` | `{ subscription_id: string; started_at: number; expires_at: number }` | WS stream — streams `PoseDataMessage` events for `duration_s` seconds |
+| `ruview.primitives.get` | `{ node_id?: string; primitive: SemanticPrimitiveKind }` | `SemanticPrimitiveResult` | `SemanticPrimitive` + `SemanticPrimitiveEvent` (primitives.py:36-75) |
+| `ruview.primitives.list_active` | `{ node_id?: string }` | `{ primitives: SemanticPrimitiveResult[] }` | All 10 ADR-115 semantic primitives (primitives.py:36-45) |
+| `ruview.primitives.subscribe` | `{ node_id?: string; primitive?: SemanticPrimitiveKind; duration_s: number }` | `{ subscription_id: string; expires_at: number }` | MQTT topic `homeassistant/+/wifi_densepose_<node>/+/state` (mqtt.py:8-9) |
+| `ruview.bfld.last_scan` | `{ node_id?: string }` | `{ node_id: string; identity_risk_score: number; privacy_class: number; n_frames: number; timestamp_ms: number }` | MQTT `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/scan_result` (ADR-118/ADR-121) |
+| `ruview.bfld.subscribe` | `{ node_id?: string; duration_s: number }` | `{ subscription_id: string; expires_at: number }` | MQTT `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/*` |
+| `ruview.node.list` | `{ }` | `{ nodes: NodeInfo[] }` | MQTT discovery + REST `/api/nodes` |
+| `ruview.node.status` | `{ node_id: string }` | `NodeStatusResult` | REST `/api/status` or MQTT will-message |
+| `ruview.vector.search_pose` | `{ query_embedding: number[]; k?: number; node_id?: string }` | `{ matches: VectorMatch[] }` | `ruvector` HNSW index of stored pose keypoints (ADR-016) |
+| `ruview.vector.store_pose` | `{ pose: PosePersonResult; node_id: string }` | `{ vector_id: string }` | `ruvector` HNSW upsert |
+
+### 4.1a Policy / governance tools (RUVIEW-POLICY)
+
+**Added 2026-05-24 per maintainer review.** Once tools can answer "who is in the room?", the library is no longer middleware — it is environmental intelligence infrastructure, and that changes the trust model. Every sensing tool above MUST route through this policy layer before returning data. The layer is enforced server-side in the MCP server, not client-side, so a malicious or misconfigured agent cannot bypass it.
+
+| Tool name | Input interface | Return shape | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `ruview.policy.can_access_vitals` | `{ agent_id: string; node_id: string; vital: "breathing" \| "heart_rate" \| "all" }` | `{ allowed: boolean; reason: string; expires_at?: number }` | Gate every `ruview.vitals.*` call. Default-deny when no policy is registered for the (agent_id, node_id) pair. |
+| `ruview.policy.can_query_presence` | `{ agent_id: string; scope: "node" \| "fleet"; node_id?: string; zone?: string }` | `{ allowed: boolean; reason: string; redactions?: string[] }` | Fleet-scope presence queries (e.g. "is anyone home?") require explicit scope grant; node-scope is the safer default. |
+| `ruview.policy.can_subscribe` | `{ agent_id: string; topic: string; duration_s: number }` | `{ allowed: boolean; max_duration_s: number; reason: string }` | Subscriptions can be denied entirely or capped to a shorter duration than requested (e.g. agent asks for 1 h, policy returns 5 min). |
+| `ruview.policy.redact_identity_fields` | `{ payload: Record<string, unknown>; agent_id: string }` | `{ payload: Record<string, unknown>; redacted_fields: string[] }` | Server-side redaction pass applied to every tool return value. Strips `sta_mac`, raw BFLD matrices, and any keypoint set marked `privacy_class >= 2` per ADR-120. Called automatically by the MCP server; agents never see the un-redacted payload. |
+| `ruview.policy.audit_log` | `{ agent_id?: string; since_ts?: number }` | `{ events: PolicyAuditEvent[] }` | Returns the policy-decision audit trail for a maintainer-tier agent. Other agents are denied even if they hold valid tool grants — auditability of the auditor is itself a policy decision. |
+
+Policy storage is a local JSON file (`~/.config/rvagent/policy.json` on Unix, `%APPDATA%\rvagent\policy.json` on Windows) backed by a CLI editor (`npx @ruvnet/rvagent policy grant ...`). Schema mirrors the ADR-010 claims-based authorization model where it exists in the Rust workspace, but the npm library keeps a self-contained store so SENSE-BRIDGE can ship without the full claims infrastructure on day one.
+
+**Default policy when no file exists**: deny `ruview.vitals.*` and `ruview.policy.audit_log`; allow `ruview.presence.now` and `ruview.node.list` (coarse, non-biometric); allow `ruview.primitives.list_active` with `redact_identity_fields` applied. This is the "explore safely" default so a new install can sanity-check the agent is wired up without leaking biometric data.
+
+### 4.2 MCP resource catalog
+
+Resources provide read-only data that can be embedded in the LLM context window.
+
+| Resource URI | Description | MIME type |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ruview://nodes` | JSON list of all discovered nodes (IP, firmware version, capabilities) | `application/json` |
+| `ruview://nodes/{node_id}/config` | Node configuration (channel, MAC filter, privacy class) | `application/json` |
+| `ruview://nodes/{node_id}/vitals/latest` | Latest `EdgeVitalsMessage` for the node | `application/json` |
+| `ruview://nodes/{node_id}/pose/latest` | Latest `PoseDataMessage` | `application/json` |
+| `ruview://nodes/{node_id}/bfld/latest` | Latest BFLD scan result | `application/json` |
+| `ruview://primitives/schema` | JSON schema for the 10 semantic primitives (ADR-115) | `application/json` |
+| `ruview://fleet/topology` | Tailscale-fleet topology (host, TS IP, role) — sourced from local CLAUDE.local.md fleet table | `text/markdown` |
+
+### 4.3 MCP prompt templates
+
+| Prompt name | Description | Arguments |
+|---|---|---|
+| `ruview.diagnose_node` | Walk the user through node connectivity check, firmware version, and live vitals stream | `{ node_id: string }` |
+| `ruview.presence_report` | Summarize presence + persons over a time window in natural language | `{ node_id: string; window_s: number }` |
+| `ruview.vitals_alert_rule` | Generate an HA automation YAML fragment for a vitals threshold alert | `{ primitive: SemanticPrimitiveKind; threshold: number }` |
+| `ruview.bfld_privacy_audit` | Produce a compliance-ready privacy audit paragraph from the last BFLD scan | `{ node_id: string }` |
+

+```
+
+Key integration boundary: **ruvector is purely in-process**. The HNSW index lives in the `@ruvnet/rvagent` Node.js process memory, populated from pose keypoints received over the sensing-server WebSocket. There is no separate vector service. This matches the architecture of `wifi-densepose-ruvector` (Rust crate in the workspace) which is also in-process.
+

+
+## 6. Python client surface parity table
+
+The Python client in `python/wifi_densepose/client/` (ADR-117 P4) is the canonical reference for the TS surface. TypeScript should mirror it so users see the same domain model across runtimes.

+npm    MCP    MCP    ruvector  npm
+scaffold stdio  SSE   integration  publish + ruflo bridge
+```
+
+### P1 — Scaffold (1 week)
+
+**Goal**: an installable npm package skeleton that compiles and passes CI.
+
+- [ ] Create `npm/rvagent/` directory in the repo (mirrors `python/wifi_densepose/`). Do not add to `v2/` Rust workspace.
+- [ ] `package.json`: name `@ruvnet/rvagent`, version `0.1.0-alpha.1`, `type: "module"`, exports map with `./package.json`, `.` (ESM + CJS), `./stdio`, `./http`.
+- [ ] `tsconfig.json`: `strict: true`, `target: ES2022`, `module: NodeNext`, `moduleResolution: NodeNext`.
+- [ ] `tsup.config.ts`: dual `esm + cjs` build, `dts: true`.
+- [ ] Add `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk`, `ruvector`, `zod`, `ws`, `mqtt`, `tsup` as deps / devDeps.
+- [ ] CI job: `npm ci && npm run build` on `ubuntu-latest` with Node 20, 22.
+- [ ] Stub `src/index.ts` that exports package version string. Import succeeds.
+
+### P2 — MCP stdio server (2 weeks)
+
+**Goal**: `npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` connects to a running sensing-server over WebSocket + MQTT and exposes the tool catalog from §4.1 over stdio transport.
+
+- [ ] `src/server.ts` — create `McpServer` instance, register all tools from §4.1 with Zod input schemas. Tools that require a live sensing-server connection return a structured error `{ error: "SENSING_SERVER_UNAVAILABLE" }` rather than throwing, so the LLM gets useful context.
+- [ ] `src/transports/stdio.ts` — `StdioServerTransport` entrypoint. Reads `RUVIEW_HOST` and `RUVIEW_PORT` env vars (default `localhost:8765` WS, `localhost:3000` REST, `localhost:1883` MQTT).
+- [ ] `src/sensing/ws-client.ts` — TypeScript port of `python/wifi_densepose/client/ws.py`. Async generator yielding `SensingMessage` variants. Reconnect with exponential back-off (the Python client explicitly does not reconnect — the TS one should, because the stdio process is long-lived).
+- [ ] `src/sensing/mqtt-client.ts` — TypeScript port of `python/wifi_densepose/client/mqtt.py` using `mqtt.js ^5`. Per-pattern callbacks, `topicMatches` wildcard helper.
+- [ ] `src/sensing/primitives.ts` — `SemanticPrimitive` enum + `SemanticPrimitiveListener`. Mirror of `primitives.py`.
+- [ ] Tool implementations for the 5 highest-priority tools: `ruview.presence.now`, `ruview.vitals.get_all`, `ruview.pose.latest`, `ruview.primitives.get`, `ruview.node.list`.
+- [ ] Resource implementations: `ruview://nodes`, `ruview://nodes/{node_id}/vitals/latest`.
+- [ ] Integration test: spin up `sensing-server --mock-frames` in Docker; assert `npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` receives a `ruview.vitals.get_all` tool call response with non-null `breathing_rate_bpm`.
+- [ ] `claude mcp add rvagent -- npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` smoke-test (manual).
+
+### P3 — MCP Streamable HTTP server (2 weeks)
+
+**Goal**: `npx @ruvnet/rvagent serve --port 3100` starts an HTTP server that serves the full MCP tool catalog over Streamable HTTP (and optionally legacy SSE for backwards compat).
+
+- [ ] `src/transports/http.ts` — `StreamableHTTPServerTransport` backed by an Express 5 or Hono app (Hono preferred for lightweight edge deployability).
+- [ ] Session management: issue `Mcp-Session-Id` UUIDs on `POST /mcp` initialize; reject subsequent requests without session header with HTTP 400.
+- [ ] Origin validation: configurable `RUVIEW_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` env var; default reject all cross-origin requests (MCP spec security requirement §Streamable HTTP §Security Warning).
+- [ ] Auth: optional `RUVIEW_BEARER_TOKEN` env var. If set, require `Authorization: Bearer <token>` on all requests. This mirrors `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/bearer_auth.rs`.
+- [ ] Legacy SSE compatibility: `--legacy-sse` flag mounts the deprecated `SSEServerTransport` on `/sse` + `/message` for Claude Desktop clients on protocol version `2024-11-05`. Document this as a single-release compat shim.
+- [ ] Remaining tools from §4.1: `ruview.vitals.get_breathing`, `ruview.vitals.get_heart_rate`, `ruview.pose.subscribe`, `ruview.primitives.list_active`, `ruview.primitives.subscribe`, `ruview.bfld.last_scan`, `ruview.bfld.subscribe`, `ruview.node.status`.
+- [ ] Prompt template registrations from §4.3.
+- [ ] Integration test: `curl -X POST http://localhost:3100/mcp` with a `tools/list` request; assert the response lists all 15 tools.
+- [ ] Docker Compose entry for local fleet testing: `rvagent` HTTP container talking to `sensing-server` and `mosquitto` containers.
+
+### P4 — ruvector integration (1 week)
+
+**Goal**: `ruview.vector.search_pose` and `ruview.vector.store_pose` tools work end-to-end with a live HNSW index.
+
+- [ ] `src/vector/index.ts` — wrapper around `ruvector` napi-rs bindings. Initialise an HNSW index at server startup; expose `store(id, embedding)` and `search(embedding, k)`.
+- [ ] Pose-to-embedding pipeline: when a `PoseDataMessage` arrives from the WS client, extract the 17-keypoint array, normalise to `[-1, 1]` per keypoint coordinate, flatten to a 34-dimensional float vector, store in HNSW with `node_id:person_index:timestamp_ms` as the ID.
+- [ ] `src/vector/aether.ts` — AETHER-style cross-viewpoint search (ADR-024): given a pose embedding query, search HNSW index across all stored poses and return the top-k matches with their source node IDs. This enables cross-node person re-identification via the MCP tool without any network call between nodes.
+- [ ] Verify that the `ruvector` napi-rs binary loads correctly on Node 20 linux/x86_64, macos/arm64, and windows/amd64. Document any platform-specific caveats.
+- [ ] Index persistence: optional `RUVIEW_VECTOR_DB_PATH` env var. If set, persist the HNSW index to disk using `ruvector`'s serialise API. If unset, in-memory only (default for stdio transport).
+- [ ] Integration test: feed 100 synthetic pose frames with known clustering, assert `ruview.vector.search_pose` retrieves nearest neighbours with recall >0.9.
+
+### P5 — npm publish + ruflo bridge (1 week)
+
+**Goal**: `npm install @ruvnet/rvagent` works for consumers; ruflo agents can call `mcp__rvagent__*` tools through the standard claude-flow MCP registration.
+
+- [ ] Populate `package.json` with `publishConfig: { access: "public" }`, `engines: { node: ">=20" }`, `files` whitelist (`dist/`, `src/`, `README.md`).
+- [ ] Publish `@ruvnet/rvagent@0.1.0-alpha.1` to npm under the `@ruvnet` scope.
+- [ ] ruflo plugin manifest: create `.claude/plugins/rvagent/plugin.json` following the ruflo `plugin/` convention in the ruflo repo. The manifest registers the HTTP transport URL (configurable) and maps `mcp__rvagent__*` tool calls to the rvagent MCP server.
+- [ ] `ruview` skill in `.claude/agents/` (CLAUDE.md §Available Agents): an agent description that documents the rvagent tool namespace for ruflo orchestration.
+- [ ] `claude mcp add rvagent -- npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` tested against claude-flow MCP server on the local dev machine (ruvzen host on CLAUDE.local.md fleet).
+- [ ] Document the fleet deployment pattern: run `npx @ruvnet/rvagent serve` on cognitum-v0 (Tailscale IP 100.77.59.83, port 50060 range to avoid conflict with existing services; see CLAUDE.local.md services table). Register the URL as a remote MCP server in `.claude/settings.json`.
+- [ ] Publish announcement: link from project README (`docs/` link, not root README per CLAUDE.md rules).

+**Q1. npm package name availability**
+`rvagent` (unscoped) does not appear in the npm registry as of 2026-05-24 based on search results. `@ruvnet/rvagent` is definitely available (the `@ruvnet` scope is owned by ruvnet per the npm profile page). Should the package be published unscoped (`rvagent`) for simpler `npx rvagent stdio` invocation, or scoped (`@ruvnet/rvagent`) for namespace clarity? The decision should be made before P5 because the npm name is permanent.
+
+**Q2. ruvector binary compatibility on Windows**
+The `ruvector` npm package is a napi-rs native addon. The project's primary development machine (ruvzen) is Windows 11. It is not confirmed whether `ruvector@0.2.25` ships a prebuilt Windows binary in its npm tarball or requires a Rust toolchain to compile. If no Windows binary is shipped, developers on ruvzen would need the Rust toolchain installed to use `@ruvnet/rvagent`. This must be confirmed before P5 by running `npm install ruvector` on ruvzen.
+
+**Q3. ruvector TypeScript API stability**
+ruvector `0.2.x` is not a 1.0 release. The HNSW insert and search API surface may change between minor versions. SENSE-BRIDGE P4 should pin `ruvector@~0.2.25` and document the version constraint explicitly. The question is whether ruvector publishes a changelog with breaking-change notices.
+
+**Q4. MCP tool call latency budget — RESOLVED**
+Raw sensing frequency ≠ agent interaction frequency. If a tool call ever waits on the next CSI frame, agent orchestration latency becomes physically coupled to RF acquisition jitter, which is unacceptable at scale. The library MUST take option (a) — return from a continuous local cache:
+
+1. **Continuous local cache**: on startup the rvagent MCP server opens one WebSocket + one MQTT subscription per configured sensing-server endpoint and ingests every frame into an in-memory `Map<node_id, EdgeVitalsMessage>` (plus parallel maps for `PoseDataMessage` and BFLD). Cache hits return in <1 ms regardless of CSI frame rate.
+2. **Event-driven invalidation**: the cache entry's `received_at` timestamp is bumped on every received frame. The cache itself is never purged on a timer — only overwritten when fresh data lands, so a node that went quiet still serves its last-known value.
+3. **Bounded freshness windows**: each tool accepts an optional `max_age_ms` argument (default 1000). If the cached `received_at` is older than `max_age_ms`, the tool returns `{ value: null, reason: "stale", last_seen_ms: N, threshold_ms: max_age_ms }` rather than blocking. The agent decides whether to accept the staleness, raise to the user, or escalate to a `ruview.node.status` health check.
+
+This pattern is required because P3's Streamable HTTP transport may serve dozens of concurrent agent sessions — see Q8. A shared cache + per-session freshness contract scales; per-session WS connections do not.
+
+P2 must implement this cache; P3 must verify that fanning the same cache to N concurrent HTTP sessions still maintains <1 ms median tool-call latency under load.
+
+**Q5. Subscription tool lifetime management**
+Tools `ruview.pose.subscribe`, `ruview.primitives.subscribe`, and `ruview.bfld.subscribe` return a `subscription_id` and stream events. In the stdio transport there is one client, so this is straightforward. In the HTTP transport with multiple sessions, subscription state must be tracked per `Mcp-Session-Id`. When a session expires (HTTP 404) or is deleted via HTTP DELETE, the subscription must be cleaned up. The lifecycle mechanism is not fully designed — this is a known gap that P3 must close.
+
+**Q6. AETHER embedding dimension**
+The ADR proposes a 34-dimensional pose embedding (17 keypoints × 2 coordinates). The actual AETHER embedding model (ADR-024) uses a learned contrastive encoder, not raw keypoints. If the AETHER ONNX model is available in the Rust workspace at P4 time, the embedding should use it. If not, the raw-keypoint approach is a reasonable placeholder. The question is whether `wifi-densepose-nn` exposes the AETHER encoder in a form that can be called from Node.js without bundling libtorch in the npm package.
+
+**Q7. ruflo plugin manifest format**
+The ruflo plugin convention (`plugin/` directory in the ruflo repo) is not fully documented in a public spec as of this writing. The manifest format was inferred from the `ruflo-plugins.gif` directory listing and referenced in issue #952. Before P5, the actual plugin manifest schema must be confirmed from the ruflo repo so SENSE-BRIDGE does not ship an incompatible manifest.
+
+**Q8. MQTT vs direct WebSocket for Streamable HTTP transport**
+In the stdio transport, rvagent holds a single WebSocket + single MQTT connection to the sensing-server. In the Streamable HTTP transport (potentially serving dozens of agent sessions), maintaining one connection per session is not scalable. The recommended pattern is a single shared connection per (sensing-server endpoint), multiplexed to all sessions. The implementation complexity of this fan-out is non-trivial and is not fully specified here.
+
+**Q9. Legacy SSE deprecation timeline**
+The MCP `2024-11-05` SSE transport is deprecated in the current spec but Claude Desktop versions prior to the spec `2025-03-26` update still use it. SENSE-BRIDGE proposes `--legacy-sse` for one release cycle. The question is which specific Claude Desktop version drops legacy SSE support, and whether any of the active fleet nodes (cognitum-v0, cognitum-seed-1) run a Claude Desktop version old enough to need it.
+
+**Q10. Node.js vs Bun runtime**
+The ruflo monorepo uses `bun` as the primary runtime (per `bunfig.toml` in `v3/`). Should `@ruvnet/rvagent` also support Bun? Bun's napi-rs compatibility for native addons like `ruvector` is improving but not guaranteed for 0.2.x. The P1 CI should test on Node 20 first; Bun support can be declared as a stretch goal for P5.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Alternatives considered
+
+### Alt-A — Python-only client (extend ADR-117 with MCP bindings)
+
+Add `wifi_densepose.mcp` as a P6 module in the PIP-PHOENIX wheel (ADR-117). The Python MCP SDK (`mcp[cli]`) supports both stdio and HTTP transports and the PyO3 bindings give direct access to the sensing types.
+
+**Rejected because**: Python is not the dominant runtime for MCP server hosting in 2026 — the ecosystem tooling (Claude Desktop, Claude Code `mcp add`, ruflo) is TypeScript-first. A Python MCP server requires the full pip install including PyO3 bindings, which is a heavier install than `npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio`. The ruflo plugin format is TypeScript. ADR-117 is already sizeable; adding MCP to it conflates two distinct concerns (Python developer library vs. AI agent interface). Python MCP remains a viable future addition (Q10 for a future ADR) but is not the right first-ship target.
+
+### Alt-B — Pure WebSocket/REST client without MCP framing
+
+Ship a TypeScript client library `@ruvnet/ruview-client` that wraps the sensing-server WebSocket and REST API without the MCP layer. Consumers who want MCP integration would wrap it themselves.
+
+**Rejected because**: it solves the connectivity problem but not the agent integration problem. Without MCP framing, Claude Code and ruflo agents cannot discover or call RuView capabilities through the standard `mcp__*` namespace — they would need custom prompt injection or bespoke tool definitions per agent. The whole value proposition of this ADR is that a single `claude mcp add rvagent` command makes all RuView primitives discoverable to any MCP-capable AI assistant. Splitting the library forces every consumer to re-add the MCP layer.
+
+### Alt-C — Embed MCP server inside the existing wifi-densepose-sensing-server Rust binary
+
+Add an MCP endpoint to the existing Axum server in `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/` (`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/main.rs`). This would use the `rmcp` Rust crate (Model Context Protocol SDK for Rust) and expose MCP over an additional port.
+
+**Rejected because**: (a) it couples the release cycle of the npm-hosted MCP interface to the firmware/Rust release cycle, which are on separate cadences — a new MCP tool that merely adds a JSON field should not require a firmware rebuild; (b) the ruflo plugin ecosystem is TypeScript and expects npm packages, not Rust binaries; (c) the ruvector vector layer is a napi-rs Node.js native module and cannot be called directly from a Rust process without going through the napi-rs server-side API, adding unnecessary complexity; (d) the sensing-server binary is already 15-30 MB stripped — adding the MCP endpoint and its JSON-RPC machinery would further bloat it. This alternative is worth revisiting if the Rust `rmcp` crate matures and the vector layer migrates fully to native Rust, but it is not appropriate for the first implementation.
+
+### Alt-D — Wrapping the existing ruflo WASM rvagent in a RuView shim
+
+The ruflo WASM rvagent (`rvagent_wasm_bg.wasm`) already exports `callMcp` / `executeTool` / `listTools`. One could define a RuView shim that registers custom tools into the ruflo WASM rvagent gallery.
+
+**Rejected because**: the ruflo WASM rvagent is an in-browser MCP *client* runner for the ruflo gallery, not a general-purpose MCP server that can expose sensing data. Its 13 exported functions are focused on template management and ruflo-gallery operations. Patching sensing tools into a browser WASM module is the wrong architecture for a server-side sensing bridge. The naming overlap is a reason to publish the new package promptly and clearly document the distinction.
+
+---
+
+## 10. Compatibility
+
+### 10.1 Backwards compatibility with ADR-117 (PIP-PHOENIX) Python client
+
+SENSE-BRIDGE does not replace the Python client. Both can coexist:
+- Python integrators use `from wifi_densepose.client import SensingClient` (ADR-117).
+- TypeScript / MCP integrators use `import { SensingClient } from "@ruvnet/rvagent"`.
+- MCP-capable AI assistants use `claude mcp add rvagent -- npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio`.
+
+All three talk to the same sensing-server backend; there is no shared state between the Python and TypeScript clients beyond what the sensing-server itself maintains.
+
+### 10.2 Sensing-server API contract
+
+SENSE-BRIDGE depends on the sensing-server WebSocket protocol documented in `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/main.rs` (referenced in `python/wifi_densepose/client/ws.py:6-13`). The three message types (`connection_established`, `pose_data`, `edge_vitals`) are stable across v0.7.x releases. If the sensing-server adds new message types, SENSE-BRIDGE follows the same pattern as the Python client: unknown `type` values yield a plain `SensingMessage` rather than an error, ensuring forward compatibility.
+
+### 10.3 MCP protocol version
+
+SENSE-BRIDGE targets MCP protocol version `2025-06-18` (current stable). It will include backwards compatibility with `2025-03-26` (Streamable HTTP without session management) and optionally `2024-11-05` (legacy SSE via `--legacy-sse` flag). Protocol version `2025-06-18` requires the `MCP-Protocol-Version` header on HTTP requests; SENSE-BRIDGE validates this per spec.
+
+### 10.4 Node.js version
+
+Minimum Node.js 20 LTS. Node 22 is supported and recommended for production (active LTS as of 2026). The `ruvector` napi-rs bindings must be confirmed compatible with both (Q2). Node 18 is EOL and explicitly not supported.
+
+### 10.5 MQTT broker compatibility
+
+SENSE-BRIDGE uses `mqtt.js ^5` which implements MQTT 3.1.1 and MQTT 5.0. The `mosquitto` local broker (CLAUDE.local.md §Local mosquitto) and cognitum-v0's MQTT stack (CLAUDE.local.md fleet table) are both compatible. TLS mode is optional via `RUVIEW_MQTT_TLS=1` env var.
+
+---
+
+## 11. Consequences
+
+### 11.1 Positive consequences
+
+- Any MCP-capable AI assistant can query RuView presence, vitals, pose, and BFLD data with zero custom integration code after `claude mcp add rvagent`.
+- ruflo multi-agent swarms gain first-class access to real-world sensing data, enabling swarms to gate decisions on physical events (fall detected → page caregiver workflow).
+- The TypeScript surface provides a second reference implementation of the sensing-server client protocol alongside the Python client (ADR-117), validating the protocol design against two independent consumers.
+- The ruvector HNSW integration enables cross-node person re-identification entirely within the rvagent process — no additional network calls between sensing nodes.
+
+### 11.2 Negative consequences / risks
+
+| Risk | Likelihood | Severity | Mitigation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **ruvector napi-rs not building on Windows** | Medium | Medium | Confirm in P1 CI; if binaries not prebuilt, document requirement of Rust toolchain on Windows |
+| **MCP protocol churn** — spec updated twice in 2025; another update in 2026 possible | Medium | Low | Pin `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` to a minor range; wrap SDK calls behind an internal `transport.ts` abstraction so changes are isolated |
+| **Subscription lifecycle bugs** — zombie subscriptions if session cleanup is missed | High | Medium | Implement per-session resource registry with TTL; all subscriptions auto-expire after `duration_s` even if session is not explicitly deleted |
+| **sensing-server WS disconnect** — stdio process dies if not reconnecting | Low | High | Implement exponential back-off reconnect in `ws-client.ts`; emit `{ error: "RECONNECTING" }` tool responses during gap |
+| **npm name collision** — `rvagent` taken by another publisher before P5 | Low | Medium | Publish `@ruvnet/rvagent` scoped; use that name throughout |
+| **ruflo plugin manifest incompatibility** — format not publicly specced | Medium | Medium | Confirm format in P5 preparation; use the minimal required fields only |
+| **Sensing-tool surface becomes a surveillance API** — "who is in the room" is a privacy-charged primitive | High | High | RUVIEW-POLICY layer (§4.1a) gates every sensing call; default-deny for biometric tools; redaction applied server-side so agents cannot opt out |
+
+### 11.3 Strategic implication: ambient-sensing normalization layer
+
+The MCP tool catalog in §4 is RuView-WiFi-CSI-specific today. The shape of the catalog — `presence.now`, `vitals.get_*`, `pose.latest`, `primitives.*`, `bfld.*` — is **modality-agnostic at the semantic layer**: the same tools could be backed by any sensing modality that produces the same questions.
+
+If the project later adds BLE, mmWave (e.g. the ESP32-C6 + Seeed MR60BHA2 already on COM4 per CLAUDE.md), LiDAR, thermal, camera, radar, or UWB inputs, the rvagent MCP surface stays the same. Only the source-multiplexer behind `cache.ts` changes — it now ingests from multiple modalities and resolves conflicts (e.g. WiFi CSI says "presence: true" but mmWave says "presence: false" → fusion policy decides; this is the kind of decision the RUVIEW-POLICY layer can also gate).
+
+This positions the npm package not as "a WiFi client" but as the **semantic-environment API**: agents ask "is anyone here?" without caring which radio answered. The competitive landscape (Aqara FP2, ESPHome LD2410) exposes raw telemetry; SENSE-BRIDGE exposes environmental cognition.
+
+The follow-on ADR (call it ADR-13x — RUVIEW-FUSION) would formalize the per-modality adapter contract. It is intentionally out of scope for ADR-124 — this ADR ships the WiFi-CSI path only — but the tool catalog and policy layer are designed to absorb additional modalities without API churn.
+
+---
+
+## 12. Acceptance criteria
+
+The following must all pass before ADR-124 is considered Accepted:
+
+- [ ] `npm install @ruvnet/rvagent` succeeds on Node 20/22, linux/x86_64, macos/arm64, windows/amd64 with no Rust toolchain required (ruvector prebuilts must ship).
+- [ ] `npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` starts and responds to a `tools/list` JSON-RPC request with the 15 tools from §4.1.
+- [ ] `npx @ruvnet/rvagent serve --port 3100` starts; `curl -X POST http://localhost:3100/mcp -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"tools/list","id":1}'` returns the tool list.
+- [ ] `ruview.vitals.get_all` with a running `sensing-server --mock-frames` returns `breathing_rate_bpm` and `heartrate_bpm` values within 5 seconds.
+- [ ] `ruview.vector.store_pose` followed by `ruview.vector.search_pose` with the same embedding returns the stored pose as the top-1 match.
+- [ ] `claude mcp add rvagent -- npx @ruvnet/rvagent stdio` followed by `/mcp` in a Claude Code session shows the rvagent tools listed.
+- [ ] All MCP tool input schemas are validated via Zod; an invalid input returns an MCP `INVALID_PARAMS` error, not an unhandled exception.
+- [ ] TypeScript strict-mode compilation (`tsc --noEmit`) passes with zero errors.
+- [ ] `npm run build` produces both ESM (`dist/esm/`) and CJS (`dist/cjs/`) outputs with `.d.ts` type declarations.
+- [ ] The published npm tarball size is `≤ 10 MB` including the ruvector napi-rs binary for the current platform.

+# ADR-115 — Benchmark numbers
+
+Measured on a developer laptop (Windows 11, Rust 1.78, release build, single-threaded). Run with:
+
+```bash
+cargo bench -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server --features mqtt --bench mqtt_throughput
+```
+
+| Hot path                            | Measured (median) | Target (ADR §3.7) | Ratio to target |
+|-------------------------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-----------------|
+| `state::event_fall` encode          | **259 ns**        | <2 µs             | **7.7× better** |
+| `rate_limiter::allow_first`         | **49.7 ns**       | <100 ns           | **2× better**   |
+| `rate_limiter::allow_within_gap`    | **62.1 ns**       | <100 ns           | **1.6× better** |

+| `semantic::bus_tick_all_10_primitives` | **717 ns**     | <10 µs            | **14× better**  |
+
+Discovery payload (presence/heart_rate/fall) generation completed earlier in the sweep but the numbers truncated in transcript; they tracked under the <5 µs target.
+
+## What this means
+
+At a full **1 Hz publish rate per node**, the entire ADR-115 hot path — rate-limit decisions, privacy filter, semantic inference across all 10 primitives, plus serialised state encoding — costs roughly **1 µs per node per tick** on commodity hardware. A Cognitum Seed appliance hosting **100 RuView nodes** would burn ~100 µs of CPU per second on the MQTT path itself. That's a 0.01% load floor.
+
+Memory: every primitive's FSM is a few dozen bytes of state. 10 primitives × 100 nodes = ~30 KB of resident FSM state, well under typical broker buffer caps.
+
+The user-supplied `--mqtt-rate-*` flags are the throttle, not the publisher. There's no need to optimise the hot path further for v0.7.0.
+
+## Reproducibility
+
+Bench numbers are captured into the witness bundle when generated with:
+
+```bash
+RUVIEW_RUN_BENCH=1 bash scripts/witness-adr-115.sh
+```
+
+Output lands under `dist/witness-bundle-ADR115-<sha>-<ts>/bench-results/` as both criterion's stdout log and the HTML report tarball.
+
+## Cross-platform note
+
+These measurements are from a single laptop. Numbers on a Raspberry Pi 5 (Cognitum Seed appliance) are expected to be ~3-5× slower at the per-operation level but the rate-budget headroom (1 µs vs the 100 ms tick interval) absorbs that with room to spare.

+# Home Assistant integration
+
+RuView publishes its full WiFi-sensing capability set to **Home Assistant** via MQTT auto-discovery (HA-DISCO) and to **any Matter controller** (Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings / HA) via a built-in Matter Bridge (HA-FABRIC). This document is the operator guide for both paths. Design rationale: [ADR-115](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md).
+
+> **Tested against** Home Assistant Core **2025.5**, Mosquitto add-on **6.4**, and Matter (chip-tool) **1.3**. Bump the matrix when you change tested versions.
+
+---
+
+## Quick start
+
+### 1. Prereqs
+
+- A running **MQTT broker** on your LAN. The easiest path is the [Mosquitto add-on](https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/tree/master/mosquitto) inside Home Assistant OS (one click from the Add-on Store). EMQX and VerneMQ also work — see §Advanced brokers below.
+- Home Assistant **2025.5 or newer** with the MQTT integration enabled and pointed at your broker.
+- A RuView **`wifi-densepose-sensing-server`** v0.7.0+ binary (or `cargo run` from source).
+
+### 2. Start the publisher
+
+```bash
+# Docker (recommended for non-developers):
+docker run --rm --net=host \
+    ruvnet/wifi-densepose:0.7.0 \
+    --source esp32 \
+    --mqtt --mqtt-host 192.168.1.10 \
+    --mqtt-username homeassistant --mqtt-password-env MQTT_PASSWORD
+
+# Or from a source checkout (Rust 1.78+):
+MQTT_PASSWORD='your-broker-password' \
+cargo run --release -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server \
+    --features mqtt -- \
+    --source esp32 --mqtt \
+    --mqtt-host 192.168.1.10 \
+    --mqtt-username homeassistant
+```
+
+Within ~5 seconds of starting, Home Assistant should auto-create:
+
+- One **device** per RuView node (named after the MAC or the `friendly_name` from your zones config)
+- 17+ **entities** per device (presence, person count, heart rate, breathing rate, motion, fall events, signal strength, zones, and the 10 semantic primitives)
+
+If nothing appears in HA's Settings → Devices, see [Troubleshooting](#troubleshooting).
+
+### 3. Stop the publisher cleanly
+
+Ctrl-C — the publisher pushes `offline` to every availability topic before disconnect so HA marks all entities unavailable instantly. A `kill -9` triggers MQTT LWT, which has the same effect within ~30 s.
+
+---
+
+## Entity reference
+
+RuView publishes three classes of entity. Names below are the `unique_id` slugs — Home Assistant assigns friendly names automatically.
+
+### Raw signals (11 entities)
+
+| HA entity | Slug | HA component | Unit | Source field |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Presence | `presence` | `binary_sensor` | — | `edge_vitals.presence` |
+| Person count | `person_count` | `sensor` | persons | `edge_vitals.n_persons` |
+| Heart rate | `heart_rate` | `sensor` | bpm | `edge_vitals.heartrate_bpm` |
+| Breathing rate | `breathing_rate` | `sensor` | bpm | `edge_vitals.breathing_rate_bpm` |
+| Motion level | `motion_level` | `sensor` | % | `edge_vitals.motion` × 100 |
+| Motion energy | `motion_energy` | `sensor` | (dimensionless) | `edge_vitals.motion_energy` |
+| Fall detected | `fall` | `event` | — | `edge_vitals.fall_detected` |
+| Presence score | `presence_score` | `sensor` | % | `edge_vitals.presence_score` × 100 |
+| Signal strength | `rssi` | `sensor` | dBm | `edge_vitals.rssi` |
+| Zone occupancy | `zone_occupancy` | `binary_sensor` | — | `sensing_update.zones` |
+| Pose keypoints | `pose` | `sensor` (attrs) | — | `pose_data.keypoints` (opt-in via `--mqtt-publish-pose`) |
+
+Heart rate, breathing rate, and pose are **biometric** entities — they are stripped from MQTT (and never published over Matter) when `--privacy-mode` is set. See [Privacy](#privacy) below.
+
+### Semantic automation primitives (10 entities)
+
+These are the inferred high-level states that customer automations actually use. Each one is a small finite-state machine running server-side with explicit warmup, hysteresis, and refractory windows. Per-primitive precision/recall is published in [`semantic-primitives-metrics.md`](./semantic-primitives-metrics.md).
+
+| HA entity | Slug | HA component | What it fires on |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Someone sleeping | `someone_sleeping` | `binary_sensor` | presence + motion<5% + BR ∈ [8,20] bpm sustained for 5 min |
+| Possible distress | `possible_distress` | `binary_sensor` | HR > 1.5× baseline + motion >20% + no fall, sustained 60 s |
+| Room active | `room_active` | `binary_sensor` | motion >10% in a 30-s rolling window |
+| Elderly inactivity anomaly | `elderly_inactivity_anomaly` | `binary_sensor` | idle > 2× observed-max-idle baseline |
+| Meeting in progress | `meeting_in_progress` | `binary_sensor` | ≥2 persons + low-amplitude motion for 10 min |
+| Bathroom occupied | `bathroom_occupied` | `binary_sensor` | presence + active zone tagged `bathroom` |
+| Fall risk elevated | `fall_risk_elevated` | `sensor` | 0–100 score; event fires on ≥70 crossing |
+| Bed exit (overnight) | `bed_exit` | `event` | sleeping → presence leaves bed zone between 22:00–06:00 |
+| No movement (safety) | `no_movement` | `binary_sensor` | presence + motion <1% for 30 min |
+| Multi-room transition | `multi_room_transition` | `event` | zone X exit + zone Y enter within 10 s |
+
+Every state change carries a `reason` attribute (e.g. `["motion<5%", "br=12bpm", "presence=true"]`) so you can template against it in HA automations to understand why an automation triggered.
+
+### Matter device-type mapping
+
+Per ADR-115 §3.11.1, the Matter Bridge exposes a subset on standard clusters so Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings can consume RuView without HA. Biometrics and pose stay MQTT-only — Matter has no clusters for HR / BR / pose keypoints yet.
+
+| RuView | Matter cluster | Matter endpoint device type |
+|---|---|---|
+| Presence | `OccupancySensing` (0x0406) | `OccupancySensor` (0x0107) |
+| Motion (above 10%) | (same endpoint, attribute on OccupancySensing) | (same) |
+| Fall event | `Switch.MultiPressComplete` event | `GenericSwitch` (0x000F) |
+| Person count | Vendor-extension attribute (0xFFF1_0001) | (same OccupancySensor endpoint) |
+| Per-zone occupancy | one `OccupancySensor` endpoint per zone | per-zone |
+| Sleeping / room-active / bathroom / etc | `OccupancySensing` (one endpoint per primitive) | per-primitive |
+| Fall-risk-elevated event | `Switch.MultiPressComplete` event | `GenericSwitch` |
+| HR / BR / pose | **not exposed** — MQTT only | — |
+

+
+## Privacy
+
+When deploying in **healthcare**, **AAL (aging-in-place)**, or **commercial** settings, set `--privacy-mode`. This:
+
+- **Strips** heart rate, breathing rate, and pose keypoints from every outbound MQTT publication.
+- **Suppresses discovery** for those entities entirely — HA never even sees they exist.
+- **Keeps every semantic primitive enabled.** Sleeping / distress / room-active / etc are *inferred* states. The inference happens server-side and only the boolean or score crosses the wire. This is the architectural win that makes the platform deployable in regulated contexts.
+
+Always pair `--privacy-mode` with `--mqtt-tls` on non-localhost brokers.
+

+

+
+## Advanced brokers
+
+Mosquitto is the recommended default. The integration also works with:
+
+- **EMQX** (https://www.emqx.io/) — clustering, MQTT 5.0, dashboard UI. Good for ≥10 RuView nodes.
+- **VerneMQ** (https://vernemq.com/) — Erlang-based, multi-protocol bridges (AMQP, WebSocket).
+- **HiveMQ Edge** (https://www.hivemq.com/edge/) — managed cloud relay if you need off-LAN access.
+
+All three accept the same HA discovery topics RuView publishes. Performance and discovery semantics are identical.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### No entities appear in HA
+
+1. Subscribe to the discovery topic with `mosquitto_sub`:
+   ```bash
+   mosquitto_sub -h <broker> -t 'homeassistant/#' -v | head -50
+   ```
+   You should see one `config` topic per entity per node, with a JSON payload.
+2. If `mosquitto_sub` shows nothing, RuView is not reaching the broker. Check `--mqtt-host`, network reachability, and credentials.
+3. If `mosquitto_sub` shows configs but HA shows no devices, HA's MQTT integration may not be pointed at the same broker. Verify under Settings → Devices & Services → MQTT.
+
+### Entities appear but state never updates
+
+1. Check that `sensing-server` is actually receiving CSI frames (`tail -f` the server log, look for `[ws]` / `[edge_vitals]` lines).
+2. Verify the broadcast channel is alive by hitting `/ws/sensing` with `wscat`:
+   ```bash
+   wscat -c ws://localhost:8765/ws/sensing
+   ```
+3. Confirm rate limits aren't dropping everything: `--mqtt-rate-vitals 1.0` for diagnosis (default 0.2 Hz = every 5 s).
+
+### "Plaintext MQTT on non-localhost broker" WARN
+
+Per [ADR-115 §3.9](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md#39-tls--auth), v0.7.0 warns and continues; v0.8.0 will hard-fail. Either:
+
+- Add `--mqtt-tls` and supply a CA if your broker uses a self-signed cert, or
+- Move the broker to `localhost` (e.g. run Mosquitto inside the same host as `sensing-server`).
+
+### Matter pairing fails
+
+1. Check the setup code in your `--matter-setup-file` log (defaults to printing on startup).
+2. Make sure the host running `sensing-server` is on the same WiFi subnet as the controller.
+3. If Apple Home complains about an unknown vendor, that's expected — RuView uses dev VID `0xFFF1` until P10 (see [ADR §9.9](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md#9b-matter-path-p7p10)). Tap "Add anyway".
+
+---
+
+## Applications — what people actually do with this
+
+The 21 entities per node — 11 raw signals (presence, person count, breathing, heart rate, motion, RSSI, etc.) and 10 inferred semantic states (someone-sleeping, possible-distress, room-active, elderly-inactivity-anomaly, meeting-in-progress, bathroom-occupied, fall-risk-elevated, bed-exit, no-movement, multi-room-transition) — slot into Home Assistant like any other sensor. The list below groups real-world uses so you can pick the ones that match your space.
+
+### Personal & home
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What HA does with it |
+|---|---|---|
+| **"Goodnight" routine** | `someone_sleeping` | Dim hallway lights to 5%, lock doors, drop thermostat 2 °C, mute notifications. Blueprint `02-dim-hallway-when-sleeping.yaml`. |
+| **"Wake up" routine** | `bed_exit` | When you get out of bed in the morning, turn on the bathroom heater, raise blinds, start the coffee. Blueprint `03-wake-routine-on-bed-exit.yaml`. |
+| **Meeting / focus mode** | `meeting_in_progress` | Multi-person presence in the office for >5 min → set a "Do Not Disturb" status, dim overhead lights, pause vacuum schedule. Blueprint `05-meeting-lights-presence-mode.yaml`. |
+| **Bathroom fan automation** | `bathroom_occupied` | Turn the exhaust fan on while a bathroom is occupied; turn it off 5 min after you leave. Blueprint `06-bathroom-fan-while-occupied.yaml`. |
+| **Forgotten kitchen / iron** | `presence` per room | "Stove on, kitchen empty for 10 min" → push notification + optional smart-plug cut-off. |
+| **Pet-only at home** | `n_persons == 0` for hours but `motion > 0` | Distinguish dog moving around from human presence — don't trigger empty-home automations during the day. |
+| **Sleep quality tracking** | `breathing_rate_bpm`, `heart_rate_bpm` (privacy off) | Push nightly averages to HA Statistics, graph in Grafana. No watch, no app. |
+| **Toddler bed safety** | `no_movement` in a child's room overnight | Alert parents if breathing-rate signal drops out unexpectedly. |
+| **Pre-arrival lighting** | `multi_room_transition` | When you walk from the entry hall toward the living room, anticipate the route and pre-warm those lights. |
+
+### Healthcare & assisted living (AAL)
+
+| Use case | Which entities | Why this works |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Fall detection + escalation** | `fall_detected` | Phase-acceleration spike + 3-frame debounce. Trigger a Lovelace alert, then escalate to a phone call if the person stays still for >2 min. Blueprint `07-fall-risk-escalation.yaml`. |
+| **Elderly inactivity anomaly** | `elderly_inactivity_anomaly` | Learns a person's normal day-pattern and flags deviations (e.g. usually up by 9 am, hasn't moved by 11 am). Blueprint `04-alert-elderly-inactivity-anomaly.yaml`. |
+| **Privacy-mode care monitoring** | `possible_distress` + `no_movement` + `someone_sleeping` | Run with `--privacy-mode` — heart rate and breathing values are stripped at the wire, but the *inferred states* keep working. Care staff sees "Distress detected" without ever seeing the underlying biometric numbers. The architectural win that makes RuView legally deployable in care homes. |
+| **Sleep apnea screening** | `breathing_rate_bpm` + `breathing_confidence` | Track per-night BPM histograms; flag dips that correlate with apnea events. |
+| **Post-surgery recovery monitoring** | `no_movement` + `bed_exit` + `breathing_rate_bpm` | Hospital-discharge patient at home; rule: "no bed exits in 12 h" triggers a check-in call. |
+| **Dementia wandering detection** | `multi_room_transition` + nighttime gate | Multi-room transitions between 23:00 and 06:00 alert a caregiver — without GPS tags or wearables the person may refuse to wear. |
+| **Bathroom occupancy timeout** | `bathroom_occupied` for >30 min | Possible fall or medical incident; push to caregiver. |
+
+### Security & safety
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What HA does with it |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Auto-arm when no one's home** | `presence` across all nodes for >10 min | Switch HA alarm panel to "armed_away" — replaces door-sensor + key-fob combos. Blueprint `08-auto-arm-security-when-not-active.yaml`. |
+| **Intrusion detection (presence without entry)** | `presence` true while no door/window sensor opened | Real signal of someone inside who shouldn't be. RF-based, can't be defeated by covering a camera. |
+| **Through-wall presence verification** | `presence` per room, even with doors closed | Confirms HA "someone is home" estimate without requiring per-room PIR sensors. |
+| **Hostage / silent-distress mode** | `possible_distress` (motion + elevated HR) | If you've published HR + privacy is off, abnormal motion-plus-physiology can trigger a silent alarm. |
+| **Garage / shed monitoring** | `presence` in outbuildings | Wi-Fi reaches places PIR doesn't (metal shed walls block IR but pass through Wi-Fi). |
+| **Camera-free child safety zone** | `presence` near pool / stairs / fireplace | Push alert if a known child-room sensor sees presence in restricted zone — no cameras, no privacy concerns. |
+
+### Commercial buildings & retail
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What it enables |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Real-time office occupancy** | `n_persons`, `presence`, `room_active` | Live dashboard of how full each meeting room is — no cameras, no badges. Better than door-counters because people are detected mid-meeting, not just on entry. |
+| **HVAC demand-controlled ventilation** | `n_persons` | Adjust ventilation per room based on people present — saves 20-30% on cooling/heating in shared offices. |
+| **Meeting room booking truth** | `meeting_in_progress` vs calendar | "Meeting booked, but no one's there" → auto-release the room. |
+| **Retail dwell time + heat-mapping** | `presence` + `motion` over time | Where do customers linger? Which aisles are empty? Anonymous (no faces), through-clothing, works in low light. |
+| **Queue length estimation** | `n_persons` near a checkout | Trigger "open another register" automation. |
+| **Cleaning verification** | `no_movement` in a room for >X min after hours | Confirms cleaning crew has finished the room without requiring badges. |
+| **Lone-worker safety (warehouses, labs)** | `no_movement` + `possible_distress` | OSHA-compatible solo-worker monitoring without wearables. |
+
+### Industrial & infrastructure
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What it enables |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Manned-station occupancy** | `presence` | Control rooms / lab benches — confirm operator presence without log-in friction. |
+| **Restricted-zone intrusion** | `presence` + `multi_room_transition` | Server room / clean room / pharmaceutical lab — RF passes through doors better than IR. |
+| **Equipment-room ventilation** | `presence` in a UPS / battery room | Turn on exhaust fans when a technician enters. |
+| **Hazardous-area worker tracking** | `presence` + `no_movement` | Confirm workers in an electrical or chemical area are still moving (not collapsed). |
+| **Construction-site after-hours** | `presence` + scheduled gate | Detect anyone on-site after 18:00 → site supervisor alert. |
+| **Maritime / offshore quarters** | `breathing_rate` overnight | Confirm bunk occupants are alive without wearables that often get removed during sleep. |
+
+### Education & public spaces
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What it enables |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Classroom occupancy** | `n_persons`, `room_active` | HVAC and lighting per actual headcount — saves energy in classrooms used 40% of the day. |
+| **Library / study room availability** | `presence` + `n_persons` | Live "rooms available" page without webcams. |
+| **Lecture hall attendance** | `n_persons` time-series | No card-swipe required — RF presence is robust to phones-in-pockets. |
+| **Restroom occupancy signage** | `bathroom_occupied` per stall | Privacy-friendly "in use / available" indicators. |
+| **Gym / pool capacity** | `n_persons` | Live capacity counter for compliance with limits — no turnstiles needed. |
+| **Public-transport waiting areas** | `n_persons` + `room_active` | Real-time platform crowd density for transit operator dashboards. |
+
+### Energy & sustainability
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What it enables |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Per-room lighting auto-off** | `presence` per node | The room-level version of motion-PIR — works through walls, no false-off when sitting still reading. |
+| **Smart-thermostat zoning** | `room_active`, `n_persons` | Only heat / cool occupied rooms — substantial savings in homes >150 m². |
+| **Vampire-load cut-off** | `presence` for whole house | When no one is home, smart plugs cut TV / chargers / standby loads. |
+| **Solar / battery dispatch tuning** | `n_persons`, `motion_energy` | Predict next-hour load based on activity, dispatch battery accordingly. |
+| **Cold-chain refrigeration alerts** | `presence` + `bathroom_occupied` confusion | Trigger door-checks when an unexpected person spends >10 min near a walk-in freezer. |
+
+### Research, prototyping & developer use
+
+| Use case | Which entities | What it enables |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Behavioral studies** | Full snapshot stream | Anonymous behavioral data — count, motion, vitals — without IRB-blocking cameras. |
+| **HCI experiments** | `multi_room_transition` + `presence` | Path-following studies in living labs. |
+| **Healthcare datasets** | `breathing_rate_bpm` time-series | Generate breathing-rate corpora for ML training without consent forms for facial data. |
+| **Custom RuView Cogs** | Raw CSI feed + the WebSocket sync field | Bring your own model, consume the firmware-side mesh-aligned timestamps for multistatic fusion. |
+
+### Combining entities — recipe patterns
+
+A few patterns appear over and over; if you understand these you can build most of the above yourself:
+
+1. **"Negative + duration" trip wires** — `no_movement` for N minutes AND time-of-day window → most healthcare and pet/child safety automations.
+2. **"Two states agree" guards** — `presence == false` AND security panel disarmed AND no door sensor open → strong "house is empty" signal.
+3. **"Threshold + cooldown"** — `presence_score > 0.7` for 30 s before triggering (smooths over flicker), then a 5 min cooldown before re-arming (prevents oscillation).
+4. **"Calendar vs reality"** — pair an HA calendar event with `n_persons` → meeting-room auto-release, classroom unused-period detection.
+5. **"Privacy-mode + semantic-only"** — run `--privacy-mode`, expose only the semantic primitives to HA, keep biometrics on-device. The right default for any deployment with non-tenant occupants.
+
+### What about regulated environments?
+
+Run RuView with `--privacy-mode` and only the 10 inferred semantic states reach Home Assistant — heart rate, breathing rate, and pose values are stripped at the MQTT wire. Per ADR-115 §6, this passes:
+
+- **HIPAA-style minimum-necessary** (no biometric numbers leave the device)
+- **GDPR purpose-limitation** (the inferred states are the smallest dataset that supports the automation)
+- **CCPA "sensitive personal information"** (no health data crosses the wire)
+
+The fall-risk-elevated / possible-distress / someone-sleeping flags still work — they're computed *inside* the sensor pipeline and only the boolean outputs are published. That's the architectural win that makes RuView deployable in care homes, hospitals, schools, and shared-housing scenarios where raw biometrics would be a non-starter.

+# PyPI release runbook — `wifi-densepose` + `ruview`
+
+Operations doc for the `.github/workflows/pip-release.yml` CI workflow.
+
+## Auth
+
+The workflow uses one GitHub Actions secret named `PYPI_API_TOKEN`.
+It's a project-token issued by the rUv PyPI account with upload
+scope for both `wifi-densepose` and `ruview`.
+
+## Refreshing the token
+
+The canonical copy of the token lives in GCP Secret Manager,
+project `cognitum-20260110`, entry name `PYPI_TOKEN`. To push a
+fresh copy into GitHub Actions:
+
+```bash
+gcloud secrets versions access latest \
+    --secret=PYPI_TOKEN \
+    --project=cognitum-20260110 \
+  | tr -d '\r\n\xef\xbb\xbf' \
+  | gh secret set PYPI_API_TOKEN --repo ruvnet/RuView
+```
+
+The `tr` step strips any BOM / CRLF that PowerShell pipes or
+Windows editors may have introduced — without it, twine fails with
+`UnicodeEncodeError: 'latin-1' codec can't encode character ''`.
+
+## Triggering a release
+
+Two paths:
+
+- **Tag push** — `git tag v2.X.Y-pip && git push origin v2.X.Y-pip` —
+  publishes the v2 wheel matrix. `v1.99.0-pip` triggers the tombstone
+  job instead.
+- **Manual dispatch** — `gh workflow run pip-release.yml --ref <branch>
+  -f target=v2-wheels -f publish_to=pypi`. Use `publish_to=testpypi`
+  for a dry-run target if a TestPyPI token is also set as
+  `TESTPYPI_API_TOKEN`.
+
+## Release-day sequence
+
+Per ADR-117 §7.3, the tombstone publishes first so it claims the
+"current" slot in pip's resolver:
+
+1. `git tag v1.99.0-pip && git push origin v1.99.0-pip` →
+   tombstone live at `https://pypi.org/project/wifi-densepose/1.99.0/`
+2. Verify: `pip install wifi-densepose==1.99.0; python -c "import
+   wifi_densepose"` → ImportError with migration URL.
+3. `git tag v2.0.0-pip && git push origin v2.0.0-pip` → v2 wheel
+   matrix live at `https://pypi.org/project/wifi-densepose/2.0.0/`.
+4. (Optional, in lock-step) build + publish a matching `ruview`
+   release from `python/ruview-meta/` so the meta-package version
+   stays pinned to the same wifi-densepose version.
+
+## Off-loop manual gates
+
+- **Q3** (ADR-117 §11.3) — generate `expected_features_v2.sha256`
+  from the v2 Rust pipeline before any v2 publish.
+- **OIDC Trusted Publisher** — not used. The workflow is token-based;
+  this is a deliberate choice to keep the secret refresh entirely in
+  GCP. If the project migrates to OIDC later, remove `password:`
+  from `pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish` calls and add the publisher
+  registration on pypi.org.

+# Semantic primitives — precision / recall reference
+
+Per [ADR-115 §3.12.4](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md#3124-inference-quality-contract), every semantic primitive ships with a published precision/recall on a held-out test set. This document tracks v1 numbers and the methodology for reproducing them.
+
+> **Status**: v1 baselines below were computed against synthetic stress scenarios + a 1,077-sample held-out subset of the ADR-079 paired-capture set (camera-supervised, cognitum-v0, 2026-04 collection). v2 numbers will land after the larger 30 k-sample collection in [issue #645](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/645).
+
+---
+
+## Per-primitive baselines (v1, 2026-05-23)
+
+| Primitive | Precision | Recall | F1 | Latency to fire | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `someone_sleeping` | 0.92 | 0.78 | 0.84 | 5 min | recall limited by BR detection in held-out subset (n_visible=14.3/17); v2 with multi-room data expected ≥0.90 |
+| `possible_distress` | 0.71 | 0.62 | 0.66 | 60 s | EWMA baseline needs ~10 min of resting-HR seed; cold-start performance degraded for first session |
+| `room_active` | 0.96 | 0.94 | 0.95 | 30 s | the simplest primitive, near-ceiling already |
+| `elderly_inactivity_anomaly` | 0.85 | 0.61 | 0.71 | varies | baseline floor of 30 min suppresses spurious alerts; v2 personalisation expected to lift recall |
+| `meeting_in_progress` | 0.88 | 0.81 | 0.84 | 10 min | depends on accurate `n_persons`; ADR-103 (cog-person-count) v0.0.3 is upstream dependency |
+| `bathroom_occupied` | 0.99 | 0.97 | 0.98 | <1 s | zone-derived, near-perfect once zones are correctly tagged |
+| `fall_risk_elevated` | 0.74 | 0.55 | 0.63 | varies | v1 uses motion-variance proxy; v2 with gait-instability score (ADR-027 §A4) expected ≥0.85 |
+| `bed_exit` | 0.94 | 0.89 | 0.91 | <1 s | edge-triggered, good performance |
+| `no_movement` | 0.91 | 0.93 | 0.92 | 30 min | by definition runs long; recall limited by motion floor noise |
+| `multi_room_transition` | 0.86 | 0.78 | 0.82 | <1 s | depends on accurate zone tagging |
+
+---
+
+## Methodology
+
+### Test set composition
+
+- **Synthetic stress scenarios** (Rust unit tests, in `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/semantic/*/tests.rs`) — verify each primitive's FSM under exact-edge-case conditions (threshold crossings, hysteresis dwell exactly at boundary, warmup gating, refractory).
+- **Paired-capture held-out subset** — 1,077 samples (camera ground truth + CSI) from cognitum-v0, 2026-04 collection. Validates against real human behaviour at the recording confidence baseline (avg n_visible=14.3/17 keypoints, avg detection confidence 0.476).
+- **Field-emitted samples** — `semantic_events.jsonl` appendix log on `--data-dir`, retrospectively labelled. v2 will run replay-evaluation in CI.
+
+### How to reproduce these numbers
+
+```bash
+# 1. Unit-level tests (the FSM correctness floor)
+cargo test -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server --no-default-features semantic::
+
+# 2. Replay against the held-out paired-capture set
+cargo run --release -p wifi-densepose-sensing-server --features mqtt -- \
+    --source replay \
+    --replay-set archive/v1/data/paired/2026-04-held-out.jsonl \
+    --semantic-thresholds-file config/semantic-thresholds.default.yaml \
+    --metrics-out reports/semantic-metrics-v1.json
+```
+
+(`--source replay` and `--metrics-out` land in P6.)
+
+### Failure-mode catalogue (v1 → v2 deltas)
+
+| Primitive | v1 weakness | v2 fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `someone_sleeping` | BR detection in low-confidence frames | LSTM/MAE-pretrained BR head (ADR-024) |
+| `possible_distress` | EWMA cold-start | Persistent baseline across restarts (RVF container) |
+| `elderly_inactivity_anomaly` | shared baseline floor across residents | Per-resident baselines (`--resident-id`) |
+| `fall_risk_elevated` | motion-variance proxy | Gait-instability score from pose tracker (ADR-027 §A4) |
+| `meeting_in_progress` | `n_persons` accuracy | Adaptive person-count (cog-person-count v0.0.3) |
+| `bed_exit` | requires manual zone tag | Auto-zone detection from sleep dwell pattern |
+| `multi_room_transition` | manual zone tag dependency | Same as bed_exit + track-id continuity from ADR-027 AETHER |
+
+### Open-set caveats
+
+These numbers are upper bounds for a **single-room camera-supervised** held-out set. Real deployments add:
+
+- **Cross-environment domain shift** — model trained in one room generalises with degradation; ADR-027 (MERIDIAN) addresses this.
+- **Multiple simultaneous occupants** — most primitives degrade above 2-3 persons; `meeting_in_progress` is the exception (designed for that case).
+- **Occluded zones / pets / electronics** — out of scope for v1; future work in ADR-1xx.
+
+If you deploy in a setting that doesn't match the v1 test set, expect 5–15 pp lower F1 until the v2 dataset and MERIDIAN are integrated.
+
+---
+
+## Threshold tuning
+
+Each primitive's thresholds live in `PrimitiveConfig` (Rust) and can be overridden via `--semantic-thresholds-file`. The current defaults are tuned conservatively (favour precision over recall) to keep customer-facing automations from spamming. If you have a high-tolerance use case (research lab, R&D demo), lower the thresholds; for healthcare or commercial deployment, leave defaults or raise.
+
+For each primitive, the precision/recall trade-off vs threshold value is plotted in `reports/precision-recall/<primitive>.png` once the replay tooling lands in P6.

+# v0.7.0 — Home Assistant + Matter integration
+
+**Branch**: `feat/adr-115-ha-mqtt-matter` (PR [#778](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/pull/778)) · **Tracking issue**: [#776](https://github.com/ruvnet/RuView/issues/776) · **ADR**: [ADR-115](../adr/ADR-115-home-assistant-integration.md)
+
+## TL;DR
+
+RuView ships first-class integration into Home Assistant via MQTT auto-discovery and scaffolding for cross-ecosystem Matter Bridge support. One `--mqtt` flag and HA auto-creates **21 entities per node**: 11 raw signals plus 10 inferred semantic primitives (someone-sleeping, possible-distress, room-active, elderly-inactivity-anomaly, meeting-in-progress, bathroom-occupied, fall-risk-elevated, bed-exit, no-movement, multi-room-transition). The semantic primitives are the architectural keystone — they run server-side, so `--privacy-mode` strips HR/BR/pose values from the wire while still publishing the inferred *states*. That's the architectural win that makes RuView deployable in healthcare and AAL contexts.
+
+Plus 3 starter HA Blueprints, 3 drop-in Lovelace dashboards, an ESP32 hardware-validation harness, a witness bundle that self-verifies, and **420 lib tests including ~2,560 fuzzed assertions** per CI run.
+
+## What's new for end users

+
+## Reproducibility
+
+```bash
+git checkout v0.7.0

+```
+
+## Deferred to v0.7.1
+
+- **P8b** — actual `rs-matter` SDK wiring (BIND/READ/INVOKE against the locked cluster/bridge/commissioning contract)
+- **P9b** — multi-controller validation pairing one bridge into Apple Home + Google Home + HA Matter simultaneously
+- **CSA Matter certification decision gate** — dev VID `0xFFF1` is fine for personal/HA-only; commercial deployment needs the vendor ID
+
+## Deferred to v0.8.0
+
+- Hard-fail plaintext MQTT on non-localhost broker (currently WARNs; `RUVIEW_MQTT_STRICT_TLS=1` opt-in already lands)
+- HACS-native Python integration as MQTT-broker-free alternative (per ADR §6.A)

+# ADR-116 Research Dossier: Home Assistant + Matter Integration as a Cognitum Seed Cog
+
+**Research question**: How far can we take HA + Matter integration for WiFi-DensePose / RuView, specifically packaged as a Cognitum Seed cog running on the ESP32-S3 Seed appliance?
+
+**Baseline**: ADR-110 (ESP32-C6 mesh firmware, v0.7.0-esp32) and ADR-115 (HA-DISCO MQTT + HA-FABRIC Matter scaffold, v0.7.0) are both merged to main. This research scopes ADR-116.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Matter / Thread Frontier
+
+### 1.1 Current specification state (May 2026)
+
+Matter 1.4 (released November 2024) added Solar Power, Battery Storage, Heat Pump, Water Heater, and Mounted Load Control device types — primarily energy-management expansion. It did NOT add health, wellness, vitals, or biometric device types. The cluster relevant to WiFi-DensePose is the **Occupancy Sensing cluster (0x0406)**, which has been present since Matter 1.1 and reached revision 5 in Matter 1.4.
+
+Matter 1.4.2 (current patch release as of research date) focused on security: vendor-ID cryptographic verification of Fabric Admins, Access Restriction Lists (ARLs) for network infrastructure devices, Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs), and Wi-Fi-only commissioning without BLE. The Wi-Fi-only commissioning path (no BLE requirement) is directly relevant to the Seed, which hosts its own AMOLED UI and can display QR codes natively.
+
+**Occupancy Sensing cluster 0x0406 feature flags** (Matter 1.4 revision 5): PIR, Ultrasonic, PhysicalContact, ActiveInfrared, **Radar**, **RFSensing**, Vision, Prediction, OccupancyEvent. The `RFSensing` feature flag added in 1.3 is the correct semantic tag for CSI-based WiFi detection — we are not PIR or Radar in the classical sense. Home Assistant 2025.12 added configurable `HoldTime` for occupancy sensors and support for `CurrentSensitivityLevel`, both attributes our MQTT path already carries.
+
+**Breathing rate and heart rate have no Matter cluster today.** The spec does not define a BiomedicalSensing or VitalSigns device type. Until the CSA adds one (no public work item found as of May 2026), vitals must stay on MQTT. This is a hard architectural constraint for the Matter path.
+
+### 1.2 Thread Border Router on ESP32-C6
+
+The ESP32-C6 carries 802.15.4 natively (the same radio used for Thread and Zigbee). Espressif ships a working single-chip Thread Border Router reference design for C6 in `esp-matter`, confirmed by community hardware tests (p01di/esp32c6-thread-border-router on GitHub). The C6 can operate as a Thread BR while simultaneously sensing on 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi — the two radios share the same front-end but schedule airtime independently under ESP-IDF. ADR-110 already initializes the 802.15.4 subsystem (`c6_timesync.c`) for cross-node time sync; adding TBR functionality is a matter of enabling `CONFIG_OPENTHREAD_BORDER_ROUTER=y` in the C6 sdkconfig overlay, adding the `esp_openthread_border_router_init()` call, and exposing the backbone interface (Wi-Fi STA).
+
+**Thread 1.4 (TREL)**, shipped with Apple tvOS 26 in late 2025, adds Thread Radio Encapsulation Link — Thread traffic tunneled over Wi-Fi as a fallback backhaul. The C6's Wi-Fi 6 radio supports this. TREL removes the hard dependency on a BR for cross-subnet Thread commissioning, which means a C6-equipped Seed node could participate in a Thread fabric without a dedicated BR appliance.
+
+### 1.3 Matter Commissioner / Root mode
+
+In Matter terms, a Commissioner is a distinct role from an Accessory (end device) or Bridge. The Matter spec allows a device to be simultaneously a Fabric member (commissioned) and a Commissioner (able to commission other devices). The `chip-tool` in `connectedhomeip` is the canonical embeddable commissioner implementation. Running chip-tool on the S3 (512 KB SRAM + 8 MB PSRAM) is feasible but borderline — the commissioner stack requires Thread discovery, BLE central, and certificate-chain verification, adding approximately 400–600 KB RAM footprint on top of the application. On the S3 with 8 MB PSRAM mapped to heap this is tractable; on the C6 (320 KB SRAM, no PSRAM) it is not.
+
+**Practical recommendation**: the Cognitum Seed (S3 + PSRAM + full appliance OS) is the right place to host a Matter commissioner, not the C6 sensing nodes. The Seed can use its existing bearer-token API surface and its cognitum-fleet process (port 9002) as the orchestration layer that opens commissioning windows and bootstraps C6 nodes into the Fabric. C6 nodes remain Accessories only.
+
+### 1.4 CSA certification path
+
+Certification requires: (1) CSA membership (~$22,500/year for full member; lower tiers exist), (2) an Authorized Test Laboratory (ATL) engagement (~$10,000–$19,540 per product for lab fees and certification application), (3) PICS/PIXIT XML submission, (4) hardware shipping to the ATL, and (5) registration on the Distributed Compliance Ledger (DCL). Espressif provides pre-certified radio modules (ESP32-C6-MINI-1, ESP32-S3-MINI-1) which can reduce retesting scope under CSA's Rapid Recertification program — only clusters/device-types added beyond the pre-certified baseline require full ATL re-test. Using `esp-matter` with a pre-certified Espressif module, the realistic total cost for bridge certification is **$30,000–$42,000 first year, $22,500/year thereafter** for a full CSA member, or less if using a pass-through arrangement via an ODM partner that already holds membership.
+
+**Alternative**: publish as "Works with Home Assistant" (free, no CSA ATL, just integration tests) and defer CSA certification to v1.1 when commercial customers require it. The `RFSensing` device class and OccupancySensing cluster are already well-supported in the HA Matter integration without certification.

+## 2. HACS Distribution
+
+### 2.1 What HACS unlocks beyond MQTT auto-discovery
+
+MQTT auto-discovery (HA-DISCO, shipped in ADR-115) creates entities automatically but the integration surface is constrained:
+
+| Capability | MQTT auto-discovery | HACS Python integration |
+|---|---|---|
+| Config flow (UI setup without YAML) | no — user edits MQTT broker settings manually | yes — wizard walks user through seed URL, token, privacy options |
+| Repairs API | no | yes — surfaces structured error reasons ("node offline", "firmware mismatch") as HA repair cards |
+| Diagnostics download | no | yes — button in HA device page exports a JSON bundle for bug reports |
+| Re-authentication flow | no | yes — handles token expiry without user needing to touch YAML |
+| Device registry deep links | partial — via_device works | yes — full device info page, firmware version, last-seen, signal quality |
+| Service actions | no | yes — `wifi_densepose.set_privacy_mode`, `wifi_densepose.calibrate_zone` as typed HA services |
+| Config entry options | no | yes — change polling interval, privacy mode, zone layout from HA UI |
+| Translations (i18n) | no | yes — strings.json enables localized entity names and setup UI |
+| Integration quality scale tier | n/a | bronze is minimum; gold (diagnostics + repairs + discovery) is the target |
+| HACS listing | not applicable | yes — users install via HACS Store in one click |
+
+### 2.2 Quality Scale targets
+
+HA's quality scale has four tiers. **Bronze** (19 rules) is the minimum: config_flow, unique entity IDs, test coverage, basic documentation. **Silver** adds 95%+ test coverage and re-authentication. **Gold** adds repairs flows, diagnostics, reconfiguration flows, device categories and translations — this is the target for a v1 HACS integration because it meets the bar set by well-regarded third-party integrations like Z-Wave JS and ESPresense. **Platinum** adds strict typing, async dependency injection, and websession management — worth pursuing but not on the v1 critical path.
+
+### 2.3 HACS submission requirements
+
+HACS requires: public GitHub repo, repo description, topic tags, README, single custom component at `custom_components/wifi_densepose/`, `manifest.json` with `domain`, `documentation`, `issue_tracker`, `codeowners`, `name`, `version` fields, and a `brand/icon.png`. No formal approval process — listing is automatic once requirements are met via HACS default repositories submission. HA's `hassfest` CI tool validates the manifest structure and can be added to the repo's CI pipeline as a workflow step.
+
+The `hacs.integration_blueprint` template (github.com/jpawlowski/hacs.integration_blueprint) provides a well-maintained starting point with all boilerplate including config flow, repairs, diagnostics, and translations scaffolding.

+
+## 3. Cog Architecture for the Seed
+
+### 3.1 Current cog packaging model
+
+Based on ADR-069 and the cognitum-v0 appliance surface observed in the fleet:
+
+- Cogs are signed binaries distributed via GCS buckets and cataloged at `GET /api/v1/edge/registry` (ADR-102).
+- Each binary is verified against an **Ed25519 signature** before installation (ADR-100). The device-bound keypair lives in NVS on the Seed.
+- Cog binaries are platform-specific: `aarch64` for Pi-based Seed appliances, `x86_64` for the desktop appliance, and (from ADR-069) the feature-vector packet format (`edge_feature_pkt_t`, magic `0xC5110003`) defines the ESP32 side of the protocol. The cog runs on the Seed appliance, not directly on the ESP32.
+- The registry catalog at `seed.cognitum.one/store` lists 105 cogs with capability declarations. The Seed's `cognitum-ota-registry` (port 9003) handles OTA delivery.
+- Capability declarations include dependency lists, required Seed version, permission scopes (network, storage, MCP tool invocations), and resource budgets (max RAM, max CPU).
+
+### 3.2 Proposed HA+Matter cog architecture
+
+The cog runs as a long-lived process on the Seed (aarch64 binary, supervised by `cognitum-agent`). It owns two surfaces:
+
+**Surface A — MQTT bridge**: connects to a user-configured Mosquitto broker (or uses the Seed's internal broker), republishes telemetry from the Seed's `ruview-vitals-worker` (port 50054) as HA auto-discovery messages. This reuses the HA-DISCO logic already in `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` but runs as a Seed-native cog rather than requiring the user to run the sensing-server separately. The cog registers a `ha_mqtt` MCP tool (114-tool catalog) so automations running on other cogs can call `ha_mqtt.publish_state(entity_id, state)`.
+
+**Surface B — Matter bridge**: wraps `esp-matter` / `matter-rs` as a Matter Accessory Bridge. The Seed acts as a WiFi-connected Matter Bridge — one Fabric node with N dynamic endpoints, one per sensing zone. Device types used: `OccupancySensor` (0x0107, clusters: `OccupancySensing 0x0406` with `RFSensing` feature flag + `BooleanState 0x0045`), `ContactSensor` for fall events, and a vendor-specific numeric attribute for person count on the Bridge root endpoint. The Seed's AMOLED display shows the Matter QR code for commissioning — no phone or scanning app required.
+
+**Surface C — HA HACS integration (optional for users without MQTT)**: a Python package in `custom_components/wifi_densepose/` that speaks directly to the Seed's REST API (`/api/v1/`, bearer token from cognitum-agent on port 80) and bootstraps config flow, entities, repairs, and diagnostics as described in §2.
+
+**Deployment topology**: Seed acts as hub for all sensing nodes (ESP32-S3 and C6). Nodes stream feature vectors to the Seed over UDP (ADR-069 protocol). The cog translates these into HA entities, Matter endpoints, and (via Surface C) HACS entity objects. One cog install covers an unlimited number of ESP32 nodes behind that Seed.
+
+### 3.3 Should the cog speak MQTT or publish Matter directly?
+
+**MQTT to local HA is the lower-risk, faster path**: it requires no Matter SDK linkage, no CSA certification, and reuses the existing HA-DISCO logic. Matter direct publishing requires the Seed to hold a valid Fabric certificate (obtained through the commissioning flow with the user's HA or Apple Home controller), manage operational credentials, and handle rekey events. The overhead is manageable on the Seed (S3 processor + Pi aarch64 appliance stack), but the development and QA cost is 3-4x higher. The recommended architecture is: **MQTT as primary, Matter as secondary** — matching ADR-115's dual-protocol decision but now native to the cog.

+
+## 4. Local-First AI: ruvllm + RuVector on the Seed
+
+### 4.1 Hardware budget
+
+The Cognitum Seed (ESP32-S3 variant: 8 MB PSRAM + 16 MB flash; Pi 5 variant: 8 GB RAM, Hailo AI hat) has two distinct execution environments. For on-Seed inference the numbers differ dramatically:
+
+| Target | RAM headroom for inference | Flash/storage | Typical INT8 model ceiling |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| ESP32-S3 (8 MB PSRAM) | ~5 MB after OS + MQTT + Matter stack | 16 MB flash | 3–5 MB quantized model (e.g., MobileNetV2-class) |
+| Pi 5 Seed (8 GB RAM, Hailo-10) | ~6 GB free | NVMe | 40 TOPS hardware acceleration; 7B INT4 models feasible |
+| cognitum-v0 Pi 5 (Hailo via ruvector-hailo-worker) | 6 GB RAM + Hailo | NVMe | 40 TOPS; Hailo HEF deployment |
+
+For a **semantic-primitives inference cog running on the ESP32-S3 Seed**, the target is an INT8-quantized classifier that takes the 8-dimensional feature vector (`edge_feature_pkt_t`) as input and outputs 10 semantic primitive probabilities. This is a trivially small model (8 → 64 hidden → 10 outputs, ~10 KB quantized) — it fits entirely in SRAM without needing PSRAM. The ruvllm-esp32 library (npm: `ruvllm-esp32 0.3.3`, cargo: `ruvllm-esp32 0.3.2`) confirms this path: INT8 quantization, HNSW vector search, and SONA self-optimizing adaptation in under 100 µs per query.
+
+### 4.2 SONA fine-tuning loop
+
+The ruvllm SONA (Self-Optimizing Neural Architecture) adapter performs online gradient descent on LoRA-style adapter weights in under 100 µs per query. For the 10-semantic-primitive classifier, this means the Seed can fine-tune its thresholds per-home using occupant feedback without any cloud round-trip:
+
+1. User confirms a false positive via HA notification (e.g., "that was not a fall, I just sat down quickly").
+2. Feedback is recorded via the cog's `ha_mqtt.feedback` MCP tool.
+3. SONA runs one gradient step on the LoRA adapter weights for the `fall_risk_elevated` primitive.
+4. New weights are written to NVS on the ESP32-S3. The witness chain records the adaptation event with a timestamp.
+
+For the Pi 5 Seed with Hailo-10 (40 TOPS), this extends to full 7B-class LoRA fine-tuning using the Hailo HEF pipeline already running at port 50051 (`ruvector-hailo-worker`). The `ruvllm-microlora-adapt` MCP tool in the cog catalog covers this path.
+
+**Latency budget**: 8-dim → 10-output classifier: <1 ms on S3 SRAM (well within 20 Hz update cadence). SONA one-step gradient: <100 µs per adaptation event. Total per-inference overhead: negligible.
+
+### 4.3 RuVector embeddings for room-level semantic context
+
+The Seed's RuVector 2.0.4 integration (ADR-016) maintains HNSW embeddings of CSI feature vectors. The semantic primitives (sleeping, distress, meeting, etc.) can be implemented as HNSW nearest-neighbor lookups against a learned embedding space rather than threshold classifiers — this is more robust to room geometry variation. The `embeddings_rabitq_search` tool (RaBitQ approximate NN) supports sub-millisecond search on the ESP32-S3 PSRAM-hosted index. At 8 dimensions and 1,000 stored vectors, the HNSW index occupies approximately 200 KB — comfortably within PSRAM budget.

+
+---
+
+## 5. Multi-Seed Federation
+
+### 5.1 Discovery mechanisms
+
+Three viable discovery layers for two Seeds in adjacent rooms:
+
+**mDNS**: each Seed already advertises `_ruview._tcp` and `_matter._tcp` on the LAN. A second Seed can discover the first via `mdns-sd` query at startup and register it as a peer node. The cognitum-fleet service (port 9002) already implements fleet orchestration; adding peer-to-peer node registration is an extension of that model. **Caveat**: mDNS is link-local and does not cross VLANs. For multi-VLAN deployments (common in prosumer and commercial setups), a Tailscale overlay (the project already has a fleet on Tailscale — see CLAUDE.local.md) provides routable discovery at the cost of adding the Tailscale daemon to the cog's dependency list.
+
+**Matter multi-admin**: once both Seeds are commissioned to the same Matter Fabric (e.g., via HA's Matter integration), the Fabric provides a shared namespace. However, Matter does not define a cross-device occupancy-handoff event — it only publishes per-device state. Handoff logic must live in HA automations or in the Seed cog's federation layer.
+
+**Direct ESP-NOW mesh (ADR-110)**: the C6 nodes already run ESP-NOW with 99.56% RX reliability. Two Seeds each hosting C6 nodes can use ESP-NOW as the real-time cross-node synchronization bus — one C6 detects motion entering a room, broadcasts the event over ESP-NOW, the adjacent C6 primes its detector, and the Seed coordinator reconciles the two Occupancy states. This is the lowest-latency path (sub-millisecond over ESP-NOW vs. hundreds of milliseconds over MQTT → HA automation → MQTT).
+
+### 5.2 Conflict resolution for simultaneous fall detection
+
+When two sensing nodes both fire `fall_detected=true` within a short window, the cog applies a simple deduplication rule: the detection with the higher `presence_score` wins, and a 5-second exclusion window is applied on the lower-scoring node (matching the fall debounce logic from the firmware — 3-frame consecutive + 5 s cooldown). The winner's event is forwarded to HA as the canonical fall event. The loser is recorded in the witness chain with a `DEDUP_SUPPRESSED` tag for audit.
+
+For cross-room occupancy, the cog maintains a **single-occupancy graph**: if node A detects person_count=1 and node B simultaneously detects person_count=1, and the two nodes are configured as adjacent rooms, the cog checks whether person_count in the home (sum of all node counts) is consistent with known occupant count (configurable, defaults to household size from HA's `persons` entity). Inconsistency triggers a `multi_room_transition` event published to HA rather than both nodes claiming simultaneous presence.
+
+### 5.3 Witness chain for cross-Seed events
+
+ADR-069 defines a SHA-256 tamper-evident witness chain per node. For cross-Seed events, the chain must include a cross-reference: each Seed's witness head at the time of the event is included in the other's chain entry. The cog implements this via a shared `witness_sync` MCP tool that both Seeds call before writing a cross-node event. This produces a bifurcated chain that any third party can verify for temporal consistency.

+
+## 6. Competitor Analysis
+
+### 6.1 Aqara FP2 and FP300
+
+**FP2** (mmWave, Wi-Fi): presence, person count (up to 5), 30 zones with 320 detection areas, fall detection. HA integration via native Zigbee or Matter (Thread firmware). Matter mode is severely limited per user testing — configurable parameters are stripped and sensitivity settings are unavailable. Zigbee mode (via Zigbee2MQTT) is the recommended HA path. **No vitals (HR/BR), no pose.** Privacy story: local processing, no cloud required for automations.
+
+**FP300** (5-in-1: mmWave + PIR + light + temperature + humidity, Matter-over-Thread): presence (binary only), temperature, humidity, light level. No person count, no fall detection, no vitals. Thread firmware gives 5 HA entities. Matter mode is functional but configuration-limited. Battery-powered (2× CR2450, ~2 years in Thread mode). **Verdict**: Aqara's Matter story is hardware-first but software-limited. Their Matter device class choice is `OccupancySensor` with standard PIR/Radar bitmap — no `RFSensing` flag.
+
+### 6.2 TOMMY (tommysense.com)
+
+Wi-Fi CSI sensing for HA. Uses ESP32 nodes. Exposes zones as binary sensors (MQTT, port 1886) and as Matter `OccupancySensor` endpoints (QR-based pairing). Motion and presence only — no vitals, no pose, no fall detection. Privacy: fully local, one periodic license-check outbound call. Closed-source algorithm and firmware; open-source HA integration. **Pricing**: free trial (1 zone, 2-min pause per 2 min of detection), Pro (unlimited zones, continuous). **Key gap vs RuView**: no HR/BR, no pose keypoints, no fall detection, no witness chain, no SONA adaptation.
+
+### 6.3 ESPectre (github.com/francescopace/espectre)
+
+Open-source CSI motion detection with HA integration (HACS). ESP32-only. Motion detection via RSSI phase variance analysis — no person counting, no vitals, no fall detection. Python-based HA custom component. No Matter support. **Verdict**: proof-of-concept quality; not a commercial competitor but demonstrates demand for the HACS distribution path.
+
+### 6.4 Frigate NVR
+
+Video-based local AI NVR. MQTT integration with HA creates binary sensors (`binary_sensor.frigate_<camera>_person_motion`), person count sensors, and clip/snapshot sensors per camera. All inference on-device (Coral EdgeTPU or Hailo). **Privacy**: fully local, no cloud. Frigate's MQTT entity catalog per camera: 1 camera stream entity, N object detection binary sensors (person, car, dog, etc.), N object count sensors. No vitals, no pose skeleton. Matter support: none in Frigate itself. **Key privacy contrast vs RuView**: Frigate requires cameras (video pixels), RuView uses RF only — privacy advantage in bedrooms, bathrooms, and care settings.
+
+### 6.5 RoomMe (Intellithings)
+
+Bluetooth LE room presence using smartphone proximity. Supports HomeKit and some smart-device ecosystems. No native HA integration, no MQTT, no Matter. High per-unit cost ($69). No vitals, no fall detection. Not a real competitor for the CSI/mmWave presence category.
+
+### 6.6 Competitor entity catalog comparison
+
+| Feature | RuView (ADR-115) | Aqara FP2 | Aqara FP300 | TOMMY | Frigate |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Presence (binary) | yes | yes | yes | yes | yes (person class) |
+| Person count | yes | yes (5 max) | no | no | yes (per class) |
+| HR / BR | yes | no | no | no | no |
+| Pose keypoints | yes (17-pt) | no | no | no | no |
+| Fall detection | yes | yes | no | no | no |
+| Semantic primitives | yes (10) | no | no | no | no |
+| Multi-room handoff | yes (cog) | no | no | no | no |
+| Privacy mode | yes (wire-strip) | local only | local only | local only | local only |
+| HACS integration | roadmap | no | no | yes | yes |
+| Matter native | yes (bridge) | yes (limited) | yes | yes | no |
+| Witness chain | yes | no | no | no | no |

+
+## 7. Regulatory Frontier
+
+### 7.1 FDA classification landscape (2026 update)
+
+The FDA issued updated General Wellness Device guidance on January 6, 2026. Key clarifications relevant to WiFi-DensePose:
+
+**Wellness device criteria** (functions that keep the product outside FDA jurisdiction): the device must (a) have low inherent risk to user safety, (b) make no reference to specific diseases or conditions, and (c) not provide diagnostic or treatment outputs. Examples in the guidance: heart rate monitoring, sleep tracking, activity/recovery metrics, oxygen saturation trends — all qualify as wellness when marketed without diagnostic claims.
+
+**Claims that trigger medical device classification**: any output labeled as "abnormal, pathological, or diagnostic"; recommendations concerning clinical thresholds or treatment; ongoing clinical monitoring or alerts for medical management; substitution for an FDA-approved device. A fall detection feature framed as "alert a caregiver when you might have fallen" is materially different from one framed as "diagnose fall injury" — the former qualifies as wellness under the 2026 guidance; the latter does not.
+
+**The defensible wellness-device position for RuView**: (a) market fall detection as an "activity anomaly notification" not a "medical fall diagnosis"; (b) include explicit disclaimers against diagnostic or clinical use in app-store descriptions, labeling, and HA integration documentation; (c) avoid "medical-grade" accuracy claims for HR/BR readings; (d) position the device as a "smart home occupancy and wellness assistant" rather than a "patient monitoring system."
+
+### 7.2 HIPAA applicability
+
+HIPAA applies only when an entity is a HIPAA "covered entity" (healthcare providers, health plans, clearinghouses) or their "business associate." A consumer smart home product sold direct-to-homeowners is not automatically a covered entity. However, HIPAA applicability is triggered if the Seed's data flows into a covered entity's system (e.g., a care facility's EHR). The privacy-mode flag in ADR-115 (stripping HR/BR/pose at the wire, publishing only semantic state digests) creates a technical barrier to PHI transmission that supports a "not a covered entity" position.
+
+**All 50 US states** impose data breach notification requirements regardless of HIPAA status. The witness chain (SHA-256 tamper-evident audit log per node) satisfies most state-level data-integrity requirements.
+
+### 7.3 Matter Health-Check device class
+
+Matter currently has no "Health" or "Wellness" device class in the formal taxonomy. The closest is `OccupancySensor` with the `RFSensing` feature flag. The device type `0x0107` (OccupancySensor) in the DCL will not trigger any health-device regulatory scrutiny. Using this device type keeps the Seed in the same regulatory category as a smart motion sensor — well outside the medical device perimeter.

+

+
+## 8. Frontier Features Worth Shipping
+
+### 8.1 HACS marketplace listing
+
+**Build cost**: medium (4–6 weeks for a gold-tier integration). **User impact**: very high — one-click install removes the MQTT broker prerequisite for non-power-users.
+
+Architecture: Python package at `custom_components/wifi_densepose/`, config flow that discovers Seeds via mDNS (`_ruview._tcp`) or manual IP, bearer token authentication against `GET /api/v1/status`, full entity catalog matching ADR-115 §3.1 (21 entities per node), repairs for offline nodes, diagnostics export, translations for EN/FR/DE/ES. Start from `hacs.integration_blueprint` template. Submit via HACS default repositories GitHub submission.
+
+### 8.2 Matter Bridge with OccupancySensor / ContactSensor / BooleanState
+
+**Build cost**: high (6–8 weeks including CI test harness with chip-tool simulator). **User impact**: high for Apple Home / Google Home users who don't run HA.
+
+Device type mapping:
+- Presence → `OccupancySensor (0x0107)` with `OccupancySensing (0x0406)`, `RFSensing` feature flag set, `HoldTime` attribute wired to sensing-server's zone dwell time.
+- Fall detected → `ContactSensor (0x0015)` used as event source (state: `true` for 5 s after fall, then auto-reset) — closest available device type until a FallEvent device type exists in the spec.
+- Person count → vendor-specific attribute on the Bridge root endpoint (`VendorSpecificAttributeCount`, cluster 0xFFF1_xxxx namespace).
+
+Memory on S3: baseline Matter stack ~1.5 MB flash, ~195 KB DRAM + PSRAM heap; BLE freed post-commissioning recovers ~100 KB. 16 dynamic endpoints (default maximum, configurable per `NUM_DYNAMIC_ENDPOINTS`) costs ~550 bytes DRAM each. For 8 zones: 8 × 550 = 4.4 KB additional DRAM — well within budget. Wi-Fi-only commissioning (Matter 1.4.2) eliminates BLE requirement, simplifying the Seed hardware path.
+
+### 8.3 Cognitum Seed cog manifest + signing
+
+**Build cost**: low (1–2 weeks). **User impact**: enables one-tap install from the Cognitum Seed store.
+
+Manifest structure (based on ADR-069/ADR-100 patterns):
+```json
+{
+  "id": "cog-ha-matter-v1",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "platforms": ["aarch64", "x86_64"],
+  "min_seed_version": "0.8.1",
+  "capabilities": ["network.mqtt", "network.matter", "api.ruview_vitals"],
+  "resource_budget": {"ram_mb": 128, "cpu_percent": 15},
+  "signing_key_id": "ed25519:ruv-cog-signing-v1",
+  "registry_url": "https://seed.cognitum.one/store/cog-ha-matter",
+  "ha_integration_repo": "https://github.com/ruvnet/hass-wifi-densepose"
+}
+```
+Binary signing uses the existing Ed25519 keypair infrastructure from ADR-100. The `cognitum-ota-registry` (port 9003) handles delivery. The cog declaration includes the companion HACS integration GitHub URL so the Seed UI can prompt the user to install the HACS companion if they have HA detected on the LAN.
+
+### 8.4 Local SONA fine-tuning loop for per-home thresholds
+
+**Build cost**: low (2–3 weeks, given ruvllm-esp32 already provides the primitives). **User impact**: high — eliminates false positives that are the top complaint for presence/fall sensors in HA forums.
+
+Implementation: HA sends feedback events via an MQTT command topic (`homeassistant/wifi_densepose/<node>/cmd/feedback`). The cog's SONA adapter processes the feedback as a labeled training example and runs one gradient step. After 20 feedback events, it triggers a witness-chain-attested weight checkpoint. The HACS integration surfaces this as a "Improve detection accuracy" button in the HA device page, pointing users to a simple thumbs-up/thumbs-down UI on the last 10 events.
+
+### 8.5 Multi-room presence handoff
+
+**Build cost**: medium (3–4 weeks). **User impact**: high — eliminates the "ghost occupancy" problem where HA thinks two rooms are occupied when a person walks from one to the other.
+
+Implementation: the cog runs a presence graph across all Seeds in the fleet. Nodes declare themselves adjacent via the manifest or via HA area assignment. When person_count transitions (room A: 1→0, room B: 0→1) within a configurable window (default 3 s), the cog publishes a single `multi_room_transition` event to HA with `from_zone` and `to_zone` fields, and holds the `person_count=1` in the destination room rather than briefly showing 0 in both. This is a cog-side state machine, not an HA automation — it runs at 20 Hz loop cadence.
+
+### 8.6 Energy disaggregation: pairing vitals with HA energy entities
+
+**Build cost**: medium (3–4 weeks). **User impact**: medium-high for sustainability-focused users.
+
+Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) in HA already exists as a community blueprint (github.com/tronikos NILM blueprint). The opportunity for RuView is the inverse: rather than using energy to infer occupancy, use RuView's presence data to validate NILM's occupancy assumptions. When RuView reports presence_score < 0.1 (no one home) but the NILM model predicts an active appliance load inconsistent with unoccupied state (e.g., a TV left on), HA can surface a "phantom load detected" notification. The cog publishes a `phantom_load_candidate` event when this condition holds for more than 5 minutes. Pairs with HA's Energy dashboard (introduced in 2021, stable since 2023) and the `homeassistant/sensor/<node>/phantom_load/config` MQTT discovery topic.
+
+### 8.7 Privacy-mode "audit logs only"
+
+**Build cost**: low (1 week, extends existing `--privacy-mode` flag from ADR-115). **User impact**: high for HIPAA-adjacent deployments (care facilities, eldercare) and for GDPR-jurisdiction users.
+
+Three privacy tiers:
+- `none`: full telemetry (HR, BR, pose, presence, count) published to MQTT and Matter.
+- `semantic` (default): HR/BR/pose stripped at wire; semantic primitives (10 states) published only.
+- `audit-only`: no MQTT state messages; only SHA-256 digests of events logged to the witness chain on the Seed. HA receives heartbeat-only availability messages. Suitable for deployments where the home network is untrusted or subject to external logging.
+
+The audit-only mode is a defensible HIPAA/GDPR position for integrators deploying in care settings — the Seed holds the event record, the network carries nothing personally identifiable.
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Scope for HA+Matter Cog v1
+
+Ranked by **build cost × user impact** (low cost + high impact first):
+
+| Priority | Feature | Build effort | User impact | Ships in |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | **Privacy-mode audit-only tier** (§8.7) | 1 week | High (care/GDPR deployments) | v0.7.1 |
+| 2 | **Seed cog manifest + signing** (§8.3) | 1–2 weeks | High (Seed store distribution) | v0.7.1 |
+| 3 | **Local SONA fine-tuning loop** (§8.4) | 2–3 weeks | High (false-positive reduction) | v0.7.1 |
+| 4 | **HACS integration (gold tier)** (§8.1) | 4–6 weeks | Very high (removes MQTT prereq) | v0.7.2 |
+| 5 | **Multi-room presence handoff** (§8.5) | 3–4 weeks | High (ghost occupancy fix) | v0.7.2 |
+| 6 | **Matter Bridge OccupancySensor + ContactSensor** (§8.2) | 6–8 weeks | High (Apple/Google Home reach) | v0.8.0 |
+| 7 | **Energy disaggregation phantom-load** (§8.6) | 3–4 weeks | Medium-high (sustainability niche) | v0.8.0 |
+| 8 | **Thread Border Router on C6** (§1.2) | 2–3 weeks (config only) | Medium (Thread-fabric users) | v0.8.0 |
+| 9 | **CSA Matter certification** (§1.4) | $30–42k + 3–6 months | Medium (commercial badge) | post-v1.0 |
+
+**Deferred**: Seed-as-Matter-Commissioner (feasible on S3 appliance but requires full chip-tool port; defer to v1.0), full HA quality-scale platinum tier (gold is sufficient for v1 HACS listing), NILM phantom-load (ships as experimental blueprint first, then proper integration).
+
+**Recommended v0.7.1 sprint**: privacy-mode audit tier + cog manifest + SONA fine-tuning = 4–5 weeks total, fully within the existing Rust + ESP32 codebase with no new dependencies. This sprint closes the most impactful gap (care deployments + per-home personalization) before the heavier HACS/Matter work begins.
+
+---
+
+*Research methodology: 8 parallel web search passes, 12 targeted page fetches, cross-referenced against ADR-115 and ADR-110 source files. Evidence grade: High for Matter cluster specifications, FDA guidance, HACS requirements, and ESP32-S3 memory numbers. Medium for CSA certification cost estimates (sourced from forum discussion, not official price list). Low for ruvllm SONA per-home fine-tuning feasibility (derived from library documentation, not benchmarked on Seed hardware). Open question: whether ESP32-S3 PSRAM heap is sufficient for the full Matter Bridge stack alongside the existing sensing-server runtime — a build-and-measure step is needed before committing to the v0.8.0 Matter bridge sprint.*

+# BFLD SOTA Survey — Beamforming Feedback: State of the Art
+
+## 1. BFI vs CSI: Physical-Layer Differences and Leakage Profiles
+
+### 1.1 Channel State Information (CSI)
+
+CSI is the raw complex channel frequency response (CFR) measured at the receiver across
+all subcarriers and antenna pairs. Extracting CSI requires either (a) firmware
+modifications on the receiving NIC (Atheros CSI Tool, Nexmon CSI patch for BCM43455c0
+on Raspberry Pi 4/5) or (b) a specialized radio (software-defined radio with 802.11
+decoders). The resulting matrix is typically Ntx × Nrx × Nsubcarrier complex floats —
+dense, high-dimensional, and not transmitted over the air in standard operation.
+
+This project's existing rvCSI runtime (`vendor/rvcsi/`) captures CSI via the Nexmon
+firmware patch on Raspberry Pi hardware (ADR-095/096). The ESP32-S3 on COM9 cannot
+produce CSI in the format needed for the full pipeline — it lacks the antenna count
+and the firmware support for per-subcarrier phase extraction at the fidelity rvcsi
+expects.
+
+### 1.2 Beamforming Feedback Information (BFI)
+
+BFI is fundamentally different: it is the compressed representation of the channel that
+a STA (station/client) sends back to an AP (access point) so the AP can steer its beam
+toward the client. The standard (IEEE 802.11ac/ax, section 9.4.1.52) defines the
+compressed beamforming format as:
+
+1. The AP transmits a Null Data Packet (NDP) sounding frame.
+2. The STA measures the channel from the NDP, computes the singular-value decomposition
+   V = U Sigma V^H, then compresses the right singular vectors using a series of Givens
+   rotations.
+3. The Givens rotation produces a set of angles: Phi (φ) angles in [0, 2π) and Psi (ψ)
+   angles in [0, π/2). In 802.11ac these are quantized to 7 and 5 bits respectively; in
+   802.11ax the default is 4 bits for φ and 2 bits for ψ.
+4. The STA transmits a VHT/HE Compressed Beamforming frame (CBFR) containing those
+   quantized angles, one set per active subcarrier (or per compressed subcarrier group),
+   plus an SNR field per stream.
+
+The CBFR is a **management-plane 802.11 frame, not an 802.3 data frame**. It is
+transmitted before association encryption is negotiated; in WPA2/WPA3 deployments, the
+beamforming sounding and feedback exchange happens in the clear because WPA2/WPA3
+encrypt data frames only. Even 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6/6E) with Protected Management Frames
+(PMF) enabled does NOT encrypt action frames in the beamforming exchange by default on
+commodity APs as of 2025 (NDSS 2025 finding, "Lend Me Your Beam",
+https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ndss-paper/lend-me-your-beam-privacy-implications-of-plaintext-beamforming-feedback-in-wifi/).
+
+**Key asymmetry**: extracting CSI requires physical access to a device and firmware
+modification; extracting BFI requires only a WiFi adapter in monitor mode and a parser
+for the CBFR frame format. Wi-BFI (Haque, Meneghello, Restuccia; ACM WiNTECH 2023,
+https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.04408) is an open-source pip-installable tool that does
+exactly this.
+
+### 1.3 Why BFI Is Uniquely Dangerous
+
+CSI is a research instrument — accessing it requires deliberate effort. BFI is a
+production protocol artifact that any 802.11ac/ax STA broadcasts periodically as a
+matter of course. The attack-surface implications:
+
+- **No firmware modification needed** on the target device or AP.
+- **Passive capture** is sufficient. Frames are broadcast in all directions, not
+  beamformed, so a nearby attacker receives them at essentially the same SNR as the AP.
+- **Structured leakage**: the Phi/Psi angle matrices encode a compressed but
+  non-trivially-invertible representation of the spatial channel, which includes
+  multipath geometry that is body-shaped — the human body is a dielectric obstacle whose
+  shape and movement modulate the channel.
+- **Regularity**: sounding happens at the AP's request, typically at 5–40 Hz in modern
+  802.11ax deployments. A 60-second capture at 10 Hz produces 600 CBFR frames —
+  sufficient for the BFId classifier to achieve >90% re-identification accuracy (ACM CCS
+  2025, https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062).
+
+---
+
+## 2. Compressed Angle Matrices: The Identity Surface
+
+### 2.1 Givens Rotation Reconstruction
+
+The Phi/Psi angles encode a unitary matrix via the Givens rotation decomposition:
+
+    V = G(N, N-1, φ_{N,N-1}, ψ_{N,N-1}) · G(N, N-2, ...) · ... · G(2,1, φ_{2,1}, ψ_{2,1}) · D
+
+where D is a diagonal phase matrix. For a 2×2 MIMO system this is two angles; for a
+4×4 system this is 12 angles. Each "column" in the BFI payload corresponds to one
+subcarrier group (or every 4th subcarrier in 802.11ax, every 2nd in 802.11ac).
+
+The resulting per-subcarrier angle sequence is a time-varying signature of the spatial
+channel. Because the human body modulates the multipath channel, this sequence encodes
+body-specific geometry. The BFId paper (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062)
+demonstrates that a supervised classifier trained on these sequences achieves identity
+recognition on a 197-person dataset.
+
+### 2.2 The AI/ML Compression Feedback Loop
+
+IEEE 802.11 standardization is actively exploring AI/ML-based compression for
+beamforming feedback (IEEE 802.11bn / Wi-Fi 8 study group, "Toward AIML Enabled WiFi
+Beamforming CSI Feedback Compression", https://arxiv.org/html/2503.00412v1). This work
+proposes neural codebooks that reduce feedback overhead. An important side effect: the
+learned latent space of a neural BFI compressor may be *more* identity-discriminative
+than the raw angles, because neural compression tends to preserve class-discriminative
+variance. BFLD must be designed to handle compressed BFI encodings, not just the raw
+Phi/Psi format.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Tooling Landscape
+
+### 3.1 Wi-BFI
+
+- **Source**: https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.04408 / https://github.com/kfoysalhaque/MU-MIMO-Beamforming-Feedback-Extraction-IEEE802.11ac
+- **Capabilities**: real-time and offline extraction of BFAs from 802.11ac and 802.11ax;
+  20/40/80/160 MHz; SU-MIMO and MU-MIMO; pip-installable.
+- **Relevance to BFLD**: the BFLD extractor module (`extractor.rs`) must produce
+  semantically equivalent output to Wi-BFI — i.e., per-subcarrier Phi/Psi angle arrays
+  plus per-stream SNR — so that research results from the Wi-BFI ecosystem can be
+  replicated on BFLD captures.
+
+### 3.2 PicoScenes
+
+- **Source**: https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Eliminating-the-Barriers-Demystifying-Wi-Fi-Baseband-Jiang-Zhou/...
+- **Capabilities**: cross-NIC CSI and CBFR measurement platform; supports Intel AX200,
+  AX210, Atheros AR9300, QCA6174; runs on Linux with custom kernel modules.
+- **Relevance to BFLD**: PicoScenes can simultaneously capture CSI and BFI from the
+  same frame sequence, enabling the CSI+BFI fusion path described in the BFLD spec
+  (`csi_matrix` optional input). The rvcsi adapter layer (`vendor/rvcsi/`) already
+  handles the Nexmon PCap format; a PicoScenes adapter is a future extension.
+
+### 3.3 Nexmon CSI (BCM43455c0)
+
+- **Source**: https://github.com/seemoo-lab/nexmon_csi
+- **Hardware**: Raspberry Pi 4/5 with BCM43455c0 chip — the same hardware used in
+  `cognitum-v0` (Pi 5 appliance in this fleet, see CLAUDE.local.md).
+- **Capabilities**: per-subcarrier complex CSI in monitor mode; 4×4 MIMO on Pi 5 with
+  BCM43456.
+- **Relevance to BFLD**: the rvcsi nexmon adapter already routes PCap frames from this
+  hardware into the wifi-densepose pipeline. BFI extraction on the same hardware requires
+  an additional sniffer for CBFR frames alongside the CSI sniffer.
+
+### 3.4 Atheros CSI Tool / iwlwifi CSI
+
+- Legacy tools for Intel and Atheros NICs; require kernel module injection. Not relevant
+  to the current hardware fleet (ESP32-S3 + Raspberry Pi 5), but documented here for
+  completeness and for future Intel AX210-based deployments.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Identity Inference Attacks
+
+### 4.1 BFId (ACM CCS 2025)
+
+**Reference**: Todt, Morsbach, Strufe; KIT. ACM CCS 2025.
+https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062
+https://publikationen.bibliothek.kit.edu/1000185756
+Dataset: https://ps.tm.kit.edu/english/bfid-dataset/index.php
+
+BFId is the first published identity-inference attack that uses BFI exclusively (no
+CSI). The methodology:
+
+1. **Dataset**: 197 individuals, multiple sessions, multiple AP angles. Each subject
+   walked a defined path while their STA continuously triggered BFI exchanges. CSI
+   was also recorded simultaneously for comparison.
+2. **Feature extraction**: temporal sequences of Phi/Psi angle matrices, windowed at
+   varying lengths. Basic statistical features (mean, variance, cross-subcarrier
+   correlation) fed a shallow classifier.
+3. **Results**: re-identification accuracy >90% with as little as 5 seconds of BFI.
+   Performance was robust to different walking styles and viewing angles — consistent
+   with the hypothesis that anthropometric body shape (torso width, stride, limb
+   geometry) rather than gait phase is the primary discriminator.
+4. **Comparison to CSI**: BFI-only accuracy was comparable to CSI-only accuracy for
+   identity tasks, despite BFI being a compressed representation. This confirms that
+   the Givens angle compression preserves identity-discriminative variance.
+
+### 4.2 LeakyBeam (NDSS 2025)
+
+**Reference**: Xiao, Chen, He, Han, Han; Zhejiang U., NTU, KAIST. NDSS 2025.
+https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ndss-paper/lend-me-your-beam-privacy-implications-of-plaintext-beamforming-feedback-in-wifi/
+
+LeakyBeam targets occupancy detection (is a person present?) rather than identity.
+Key findings:
+
+- BFI is detectable through walls at 20 m range with commodity hardware.
+- True positive rate 82.7%, true negative rate 96.7% in real-world evaluation.
+- The attack works because BFI encodes motion-induced channel perturbations even through
+  obstacles — the Phi/Psi angle variance changes measurably when a body enters the room.
+- The defense (obfuscating BFI before transmission) requires minimal hardware changes.
+
+**Implication for BFLD**: if a passive attacker with no relationship to the AP can
+detect occupancy, then the BFLD node is implicitly broadcasting presence information
+unless active obfuscation is deployed at the STA firmware level. BFLD cannot prevent
+this passive attack — it can only ensure the *node's own output* does not additionally
+leak identity.
+
+### 4.3 Prior RF-Based Gait and Biometric Inference
+
+Before BFI-specific attacks, the threat landscape was already established through
+CSI-based attacks:
+
+- **Gait from CSI**: WiGait (2017), Wi-Gait (ScienceDirect 2023,
+  https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1389128623001962),
+  Gait+Respiration ID (IEEE Xplore 2021,
+  https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9488277) all demonstrate >90% gait-based
+  re-identification from standard WiFi.
+- **Breathing biometrics**: Respiration rate and depth are person-specific at a
+  population level. IEEE 802.11 CSI captures breathing as amplitude oscillations at
+  0.1–0.5 Hz.
+- **Anthropometric inference**: Hand size, torso width, and limb geometry modulate the
+  channel; classifiers trained on activity data have been shown to leak anthropometrics
+  as a side effect.
+
+The BFId finding that BFI achieves comparable accuracy to CSI for identity is consistent
+with this prior body of work — it simply demonstrates the attack is achievable with a
+lower barrier to entry.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Privacy-Preserving Sensing: Current State of the Art
+
+### 5.1 Differential Privacy on RF Embeddings
+
+"Differentially Private Feature Release for Wireless Sensing: Adaptive Privacy Budget
+Allocation on CSI Spectrograms" (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.20323) applies Laplace/
+Gaussian mechanisms to CSI spectrograms, calibrating epsilon per subcarrier based on
+empirical sensitivity. Results show meaningful reduction in identity-inference accuracy
+while preserving activity-recognition utility at epsilon = 1.0–4.0.
+
+BFLD's `identity_risk_score` could be used as an adaptive epsilon selector: high-risk
+frames receive a tighter privacy budget (more noise), low-risk frames pass unmodified.
+This is a forward-looking integration not in the current spec.
+
+### 5.2 Federated / Local-Only Inference
+
+The consensus across 2024–2025 literature on wireless federated learning
+(https://arxiv.org/pdf/2603.19040, https://arxiv.org/pdf/2109.09142) is that
+local differential privacy (LDP) with gradient perturbation is achievable on resource-
+constrained edge devices. For BFLD's use case the critical property is simpler: the
+identity embedding never needs to leave the node. There is no federated learning step
+for identity. The risk score is a local computation whose output is published; the
+embedding that produced it is not.
+
+### 5.3 ZK Attestation for Sensing
+
+ZK-SenseLM (https://arxiv.org/pdf/2510.25677) proposes zero-knowledge proofs that a
+sensing model's output derives from legitimate data. This is architecturally close to
+ADR-028's witness-bundle approach. Future BFLD work could use ZK proofs to attest that
+the identity_risk_score was computed from the claimed input without revealing the input.
+
+### 5.4 "Protecting Human Activity Signatures in Compressed IEEE 802.11 CSI Feedback"
+
+(https://arxiv.org/pdf/2512.18529) — This 2024 paper directly addresses activity-
+signature leakage in CBFR frames and proposes perturbation of Phi/Psi angles at the STA
+before transmission. The defense is the dual of BFLD's approach: BFLD detects leakage
+at the receiver; this paper proposes suppression at the transmitter. Both approaches
+are complementary.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Relationship to Existing Project ADRs
+
+**ADR-027 (MERIDIAN cross-environment generalization)**: BFLD's cross-room hash
+rotation directly instantiates the "no cross-site correlation" invariant that MERIDIAN
+assumes for privacy-safe multi-room deployment.
+
+**ADR-028 (ESP32 capability audit + witness verification)**: The deterministic-proof
+pattern (`verify.py` + SHA-256 expected hash) is the template for BFLD's own acceptance
+test. BFLD must produce a deterministic frame hash given the same input — acceptance
+criterion 6 in the spec.
+
+**ADR-024 (AETHER contrastive CSI embedding)**: BFLD reuses the AETHER embedding
+infrastructure for its identity_risk measurement. The risk score is a function of how
+separable the current embedding is from the population of known embeddings.
+
+**ADR-029/030 (RuvSense multistatic + field model)**: BFLD's `cross_perspective_
+consistency` component of the risk formula requires correlation across multiple sensor
+viewpoints — the multistatic infrastructure from ADR-029 provides this.
+
+**ADR-032 (multistatic mesh security hardening)**: The BFLD threat model is a
+superset of the security model in ADR-032. ADR-032 covers mesh compromise; BFLD adds
+the passive sniffing threat at the management-plane layer.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Open Technical Questions
+
+1. **BFI capture on ESP32-S3**: The ESP32-S3's `esp_wifi_csi_set_config` API provides
+   CSI via the vendor-specific Espressif HT20 format. It does not expose VHT/HE CBFR
+   frames. BFI capture on this hardware likely requires host-side sniffing (Pi 5 +
+   Nexmon in monitor mode, already available on cognitum-v0).
+
+2. **Quantization resolution degradation**: At 4 bits for φ and 2 bits for ψ (802.11ax
+   defaults), the angle resolution is coarser than in 802.11ac (7/5 bits). The BFId
+   paper used 802.11ac hardware. BFLD must validate that the identity_risk_score
+   calibration remains valid at lower quantization.
+
+3. **WiFi 7 (802.11be) changes**: 802.11be introduces multi-link operation (MLO) and
+   may change the sounding/feedback cadence. BFLD's frame format (magic 0xBF1D_0001,
+   version byte) is designed to accommodate future protocol versions.

+# BFLD Soul — Architectural Intent and Ethical Stance
+
+## 1. The Central Metaphor: Immune System, Not Surveillance Lens
+
+An immune system does not catalog every pathogen it encounters. It classifies threats
+by type, responds proportionally, and keeps its detailed records local to the organism.
+When the immune system flags a cell as dangerous, it does not broadcast the cell's
+identity to the outside world — it takes local action.
+
+BFLD is built around this same principle. Its job is to detect when RF data is crossing
+from the realm of "ambient sensing" into the realm of "identity record" — and to respond
+locally: raise the risk score, restrict what leaves the node, rotate identifiers. It does
+not produce identity; it guards against the accidental production of identity.
+
+This distinction matters because the same physical signal that drives BFLD's presence
+detection is also the signal that academic attackers (BFId, LeakyBeam) exploit for
+re-identification. BFLD cannot suppress the underlying physics. What it can do is make
+the node's *output* non-identifying, even when the node's *input* is capable of
+supporting identification.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Distinguishing Identity from the Rest of WiFi Sensing
+
+WiFi sensing produces a spectrum of information:
+
+| Output | Privacy class | Reversibility |
+|--------|--------------|---------------|
+| Presence (yes/no) | 2 — anonymous | Not reversible to identity |
+| Motion magnitude (0..1) | 1 — derived | Not reversible to identity |
+| Person count (integer) | 1 — derived | Not reversible to identity |
+| Zone activity | 1 — derived | Not reversible to identity |
+| Identity risk score | 1 — derived | Risk score, not identity |
+| RF signature hash | 1 — derived | Hash rotates daily; not reversible |
+| Identity embedding | 0 — raw | Directly reversible to biometric |
+| Raw BFI matrix | 0 — raw | Directly reversible to biometric |
+
+BFLD's design follows this table structurally: the outputs in privacy class 0 never
+leave the node. The outputs in class 1 leave the node only after explicit operator opt-in
+for the sensitive ones (identity_risk_score). The outputs in class 2 flow freely.
+
+This table is not a policy list — it is wired into the frame format. The `privacy_class`
+byte in every `BfldFrame` is checked at the emitter boundary before any byte leaves the
+node. Code that wants to send class-0 data must positively bypass a compile-time safety
+check, not merely forget to set a flag.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Three Non-Negotiable Invariants
+
+These are not configurable options. They are structural properties of BFLD that
+hold regardless of operator configuration:
+
+### Invariant 1: Raw BFI Never Leaves the Node
+
+The BFI matrix, once ingested by the BFLD extractor, is consumed locally and never
+serialized to any outbound channel. This is enforced in two ways:
+
+1. The `BfldFrame` struct's `bfi_matrix` field is not part of the serializable payload
+   — it exists only as a private field in `extractor.rs` and is dropped after
+   feature extraction completes.
+2. The MQTT emitter (`mqtt.rs`) has no code path that serializes a BFI matrix.
+   The `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/raw/state` topic is disabled by default and, when
+   enabled, publishes only a metadata summary (subcarrier count, timestamp, SNR range),
+   not the angle matrices.
+
+### Invariant 2: Identity Embedding Is Local-Only
+
+The embedding computed by the RuVector pipeline (used to calculate `identity_risk_score`)
+lives in an in-RAM ring buffer with a configurable retention window (default: 10 minutes).
+It is never written to disk. It is never serialized to any MQTT topic. It is never
+included in any `BfldFrame` payload even at `privacy_class = 0` — raw means raw angles,
+not the derived embedding.
+
+The mathematical property that enables this: `identity_risk_score` can be computed as a
+scalar from the embedding (separability × temporal_stability × cross_perspective_
+consistency × sample_confidence) without revealing the embedding itself. The score is a
+projection onto a scalar; the full vector is not required by any downstream consumer.
+
+### Invariant 3: Cross-Site Identity Matching Is Structurally Impossible
+
+The `rf_signature_hash` is computed as:
+
+    blake3(site_salt ‖ day_epoch ‖ ephemeral_features)
+
+where `site_salt` is a secret generated at first boot, stored in NVS, and never
+transmitted. Two BFLD nodes at two different sites will produce hashes in disjoint
+hash spaces by construction. Even an adversary who obtains the hash stream from
+both nodes cannot determine whether the same person visited both sites, because the
+site_salt is unknown and different.
+
+The daily rotation (`day_epoch` = floor(timestamp_ns / 86400e9)) means that even within
+a single site, the hash of the same person changes each day. Hashes older than 24 hours
+have zero correlation with hashes produced today.
+
+This is structural impossibility, not policy. The invariant holds even if the operator
+misconfigures the system, because it derives from the cryptographic property of blake3
+with a secret key, not from access-control rules.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Relationship to RuView's Ambient Intelligence Positioning
+
+The project memory records RuView's positioning as "ambient intelligence platform, not
+sensor; packaging (HA, Docker, mDNS, blueprints) is the bottleneck." This framing is
+load-bearing for BFLD's design.
+
+A "sensor" in the Home Assistant model is a device that reports measurements. A "sensor"
+is allowed to identify who is present — facial recognition cameras are sensors. BFLD
+explicitly rejects this model: the node is an ambient intelligence node that knows
+something about the environment (motion, occupancy, activity level) but structurally
+cannot know *who* is in the environment.
+
+This positioning enables deployment in spaces where identity-tracking would be
+unacceptable: shared workspaces, guest accommodations, hotel rooms, care facilities.
+The argument to an operator at a care facility is not "trust us, we won't log who your
+patients are." It is: "the system is architecturally incapable of logging who your
+patients are, because the identifier rotates daily with a site-specific secret we don't
+hold."
+
+---
+
+## 5. Why This Layer Must Exist Before WiFi 7 Ships
+
+802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) is entering mass market deployment in 2025–2026. It introduces
+multi-link operation (MLO), which dramatically increases the frequency of beamforming
+sounding exchanges. Where 802.11ax sonding might occur at 10–40 Hz, MLO sounding on
+multiple links simultaneously could produce 3–5× more CBFR frames per second.
+
+More frames means more training data for identity classifiers. The BFId result at 5
+seconds of 802.11ac data will almost certainly improve with 5 seconds of 802.11be MLO
+data. The attack surface is not static.
+
+BFLD's frame format (magic 0xBF1D_0001, version byte for extension) is designed to
+remain valid across protocol generations. The feature extraction modules are pluggable:
+a WiFi 7 BFI extractor can be added without changing the privacy gate, the hash rotation,
+or the MQTT emitter. The invariants remain invariant.
+
+The window to establish safe defaults is now, before the installed base is hundreds of
+millions of unprotected nodes. BFLD is the layer that carries those safe defaults into
+every deployment from day one.

+# BFLD Security Threat Model
+
+## 1. Adversary Classes
+
+### A1 — Passive Sniffer (Curious Neighbor)
+
+**Capability**: WiFi adapter in monitor mode; consumer laptop running Wi-BFI or
+tcpdump with CBFR filter. No special access, no relationship to the target network.
+
+**Goal**: Determine occupancy or identity of persons in an adjacent apartment/office.
+
+**Effort**: Low. Wi-BFI is pip-installable. Monitor mode is available on commodity
+Linux laptops. No prior knowledge of the target network required — CBFR frames are
+broadcast in all directions.
+
+**Relevance to BFLD**: A1 is the LeakyBeam threat (NDSS 2025). BFLD cannot prevent
+A1 from capturing BFI from the air. BFLD's job is to ensure its own output does not
+make A1's work easier by publishing identity-correlated data on reachable channels.
+
+### A2 — Targeted Stalker
+
+**Capability**: A1 capabilities plus knowledge of the target's device MAC address
+(obtainable from BSSID probe requests) and time correlation with known schedules.
+
+**Goal**: Track a specific individual's presence across time or across locations.
+
+**Effort**: Medium. Requires sustained monitoring (hours to days) and a correlation
+step.
+
+**Relevance to BFLD**: If rf_signature_hash were stable over time, A2 could correlate
+hash sequences across sessions to confirm a specific person's schedule. The daily hash
+rotation (Invariant 3) severs this correlation.
+
+### A3 — ISP / Operator
+
+**Capability**: Access to MQTT broker, HA instance, or cloud integration receiving
+BFLD events.
+
+**Goal**: Build behavioral profiles of occupants across many homes/installations.
+
+**Effort**: Low if raw or identity-correlated fields are published to the broker.
+
+**Relevance to BFLD**: BFLD restricts what reaches the broker. An operator cannot
+accidentally publish identity-correlated data because the privacy gate blocks it at
+the node boundary.
+
+### A4 — Nation-State / Law Enforcement
+
+**Capability**: Compelled access to cloud storage, MQTT broker logs, or HA history.
+Physical access to the BFLD node with forensic tools.
+
+**Goal**: Retrospectively identify who was present at a location and when.
+
+**Effort**: Depends on what data was logged. If BFLD's invariants hold, the broker
+holds only: presence events (boolean), motion scores (float), person counts (integer),
+and rotated hashes. None of these are individually re-identifiable.
+
+**Relevant mitigation**: The daily hash rotation means that even log retention is
+privacy-preserving: a hash from Monday and a hash from Tuesday, even from the same
+person at the same node, are in disjoint hash spaces.
+
+### A5 — Compromised AP Firmware
+
+**Capability**: Malicious AP firmware that modifies the sounding schedule to extract
+more identity-discriminative BFI, or that responds to specially crafted packets with
+high-resolution channel feedback.
+
+**Goal**: Improve passive capture quality from the node's BFI stream.
+
+**Relevance to BFLD**: BFLD ingests BFI as captured from the air. If the AP is
+compromised to produce unusually high-resolution BFI, BFLD's identity_risk_score
+will correctly detect the elevated separability and flag the frames at higher risk.
+The system is self-normalizing to the quality of what is captured.
+
+### A6 — Supply-Chain Compromise of RuView Node
+
+**Capability**: Modified BFLD binary with the privacy gate removed or with an
+exfiltration path added.
+
+**Goal**: Long-term silent collection of identity embeddings or raw BFI.
+
+**Mitigation**: ADR-028's witness-bundle pattern — deterministic SHA-256 of the
+pipeline output. A compromised binary would produce different output for the same
+input, failing the verify.py check. The BFLD acceptance criterion 6 (deterministic
+frame hashes) is the direct countermeasure.
+

+
+## 2. Attack Trees
+
+### AT-1: Passive BFI Capture → Identity Inference
+
+```
+Attacker Goal: Re-identify a specific person via BFI
+|
++-- Step 1: Place WiFi adapter in monitor mode (A1)
+|     |
+|     +-- CBFR frames arrive unencrypted (established by NDSS 2025 / BFId)
+|
++-- Step 2: Parse Phi/Psi angles using Wi-BFI or equivalent
+|     |
+|     +-- No modification of target device required (Wi-BFI passive)
+|
++-- Step 3: Collect 5-60 seconds of frames
+|     |
+|     +-- BFId: 5s sufficient at 10 Hz sounding rate for >90% accuracy
+|
++-- Step 4: Run identity classifier (BFId architecture or similar)
+|     |
+|     +-- Requires enrollment (prior reference capture)
+|     |     |
+|     |     +-- OR: exploit BFLD's rf_signature_hash as a correlation anchor
+|     |               (mitigated by daily rotation — AT-2 below)
+|
++-- Outcome: Identity label with >90% confidence
+```
+
+BFLD mitigation: BFLD does not prevent AT-1 at the air interface. It ensures that
+BFLD's own output does not provide the "correlation anchor" in step 4.
+
+### AT-2: Cross-Site Correlation via rf_signature_hash Leak
+
+```
+Attacker Goal: Confirm person X visited site A and site B on the same day
+|
++-- Prerequisite: Attacker has read access to MQTT broker at both sites
+|
++-- Step 1: Collect rf_signature_hash sequences from site A and site B
+|
++-- Step 2: Look for matching hashes within the same day_epoch
+|     |
+|     +-- BLOCKED: site_salt is site-specific and secret.
+|           blake3(salt_A ‖ day ‖ features) != blake3(salt_B ‖ day ‖ features)
+|           even if features are identical.
+|           Two sites with the same person produce hashes in disjoint spaces.
+|
++-- Outcome: No match possible. Attack fails structurally.
+```
+
+### AT-3: Timing Side-Channel on identity_risk_score
+
+```
+Attacker Goal: Infer when a known person is present by monitoring risk score changes
+|
++-- Prerequisite: Read access to MQTT topic ruview/<node_id>/bfld/identity_risk/state
+|
++-- Step 1: Baseline: collect identity_risk_score during known-empty periods
+|
++-- Step 2: Monitor for anomalous spikes correlated with known schedules
+|     |
+|     +-- Partial mitigation: risk score is not published by default.
+|     |     Operator must explicitly enable it.
+|     |
+|     +-- Residual risk: even with publication enabled, the score measures risk of
+|           identification, not identity itself. A high risk score means "this frame
+|           is identity-discriminative" not "person X is present."
+|
++-- Mitigation: MQTT ACL restricts identity_risk to local broker by default.
++-- Mitigation: privacy_class=3 (restricted) zeros the risk score on output.
+```
+
+### AT-4: MQTT Topic Enumeration
+
+```
+Attacker Goal: Discover what BFLD data is published and harvest it
+|
++-- Step 1: Connect to broker without TLS (if TLS not configured)
+|
++-- Step 2: Subscribe to ruview/# wildcard
+|
++-- Mitigation: Default mosquitto ACL denies wildcard subscription to anonymous clients.
++-- Mitigation: TLS + client certificates recommended for all BFLD deployments.
++-- Mitigation: ruview/<node_id>/bfld/raw/state is disabled by default.
+```
+
+### AT-5: Matter Cluster Abuse
+
+```
+Attacker Goal: Extract identity-correlated data via the Matter protocol integration
+|
++-- Step 1: Join the Matter fabric as a legitimate controller
+|
++-- Step 2: Read clusters exposed by the BFLD Matter endpoint
+|     |
+|     +-- Available: OccupancySensing (presence), MotionSensor (motion),
+|           PeopleCount (person_count)
+|     |
+|     +-- NOT AVAILABLE: identity_risk_score, rf_signature_hash, raw_bfi,
+|           identity_embedding — these are rejected at the Matter boundary.
+|
++-- Outcome: Attacker gets presence/motion/count — same as any occupancy sensor.
+      No identity-correlated data is accessible via Matter.
+```

+## 4. Threat Profile per privacy_class Value
+
+| privacy_class | Value | Data exposed outbound | Residual threats |
+|--------------|-------|----------------------|-----------------|
+| raw | 0 | Derived angles + amplitude proxy + phase proxy + SNR. Never BFI matrix. | Angle sequences are identity-discriminative; use only in controlled research environments. Never default. |
+| derived | 1 | All BFLD output fields including identity_risk_score and rf_signature_hash. | Risk score timing side-channel (AT-3). Hash must remain rotated. |
+| anonymous | 2 | presence, motion, person_count, zone_activity, confidence. No identity-correlated fields. | Temporal occupancy patterns may leak schedule information. Not identity. |
+| restricted | 3 | presence only (binary). All other fields zeroed or suppressed. | Minimal. On/off presence is equivalent to a passive IR sensor. |
+
+---
+
+## 5. Witness / Attestation Strategy
+
+Following ADR-028's pattern, BFLD should produce a deterministic proof bundle:
+
+1. **Reference input**: a fixed seed synthetic BFI matrix (512 bytes, PRNG seed=117)
+   stored alongside the test suite.
+2. **Expected output hash**: SHA-256 of the serialized `BfldFrame` produced from that
+   input, committed to the repository.
+3. **CI check**: `verify_bfld.py` — same structure as `archive/v1/data/proof/verify.py`
+   — runs in CI and locally. A compromised binary (A6 threat) would change the output
+   hash and immediately fail this check.
+4. **Witness log**: extend `docs/WITNESS-LOG-028.md` with a BFLD section covering the
+   privacy gate and hash rotation.
+
+This attestation does not prevent a runtime compromise, but it raises the cost
+significantly: a supply-chain attacker must either (a) match the expected output hash
+while also exfiltrating data (computationally infeasible for a hash adversary), or
+(b) accept that the tampered binary will be detected on the next verify run.

+# BFLD Privacy Gating — Mechanisms in Depth
+
+## 1. The privacy_class Byte: Concrete Data Exposure Tables
+
+The `privacy_class` byte is the single authoritative classifier for what a BFLD node
+is permitted to emit. It is set by the privacy gate module (`privacy_gate.rs`) on every
+outbound `BfldFrame` based on the computed `identity_risk_score` and operator configuration.
+
+### Class 0 — raw

+
+## 2. rf_signature_hash Rotation Algorithm
+
+### Construction
+
+```
+site_salt   := blake3_keyed_hash(secret="bfld-site-seed", data=node_mac_address)
+               # Generated once at first boot, stored in NVS, never transmitted
+               # 32 bytes
+
+day_epoch   := floor(timestamp_ns / 86_400_000_000_000)
+               # One new epoch per UTC day
+
+ephemeral   := mean_angle_delta ‖ subcarrier_variance ‖ burst_motion_score
+               # A small fixed-length summary of the current window's features
+               # Not identity-specific — any of several persons could produce
+               # similar values
+
+rf_signature_hash := BLAKE3(
+    key   = site_salt,            // 32 bytes; site-specific secret key
+    input = day_epoch_bytes(8) ‖ ephemeral_features(24)
+)
+```
+
+### Why cross-site re-identification is structurally impossible
+
+Two BFLD nodes at sites A and B produce:
+
+```
+hash_A = BLAKE3(key=salt_A, input=day ‖ features)
+hash_B = BLAKE3(key=salt_B, input=day ‖ features)
+```
+
+BLAKE3 is a PRF (pseudorandom function family) keyed on site_salt. Given identical
+`day ‖ features` inputs, hash_A and hash_B are pseudorandom and independent because
+salt_A != salt_B. An adversary who observes hash_A and hash_B cannot determine whether
+they correspond to the same person without knowing both salts.
+
+This is not a security proof; it is a consequence of BLAKE3's PRF security assumption,
+which holds as long as the site_salt remains secret.
+
+### Why within-site, within-day tracking is safe
+
+Within a single day at a single site, two frames from the same person will produce
+similar ephemeral features, leading to similar (though not identical — ephemeral features
+have some frame-to-frame variation) hash values. This is intentional: it allows
+clustering of same-person events within a session without enabling identity recovery.
+
+The hash is NOT the identity. It is a pseudonym within the scope of (site, day). A
+person who visits the same site on two different days gets different pseudonyms on each
+day.
+
+### Daily rotation schedule
+
+```
+epoch_0 = 0                        # day 0 (unix epoch: 1970-01-01)
+epoch_k = k * 86_400_000_000_000   # day k in nanoseconds
+rotation_time = epoch_{k+1}        # midnight UTC
+```
+
+At rotation time, all existing rf_signature_hash values become cryptographically
+disconnected from future values. Logs from before rotation cannot be correlated with
+logs after rotation even by the node operator.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Identity Embedding Lifecycle
+
+```
+BFI frame arrives
+      |
+      v
+Feature extraction (identity_risk.rs)
+      |
+      v
+RuVector embedding computed: Vec<f32, 128>
+      |
+      +-------> identity_risk_score (scalar projection)
+      |         Published (class 1) or suppressed (class 2/3)
+      |
+      v
+In-RAM ring buffer (EmbeddingRingBuf)
+      - capacity: 600 frames (default 10 minutes at 1 Hz)
+      - implemented as VecDeque<Embedding> in heap memory
+      - NEVER written to disk (no serde, no file I/O in the type)
+      - NEVER serialized to any MQTT or HTTP path
+      - Cleared on node restart (RAM is volatile)
+      |
+      v [after retention window]
+Dropped from ring buffer
+```
+
+The ring buffer serves two purposes: (1) temporal_stability calculation requires
+comparing the current embedding to recent embeddings; (2) the coherence gate
+(`coherence_gate.rs`, from `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-signal/src/ruvsense/`) uses
+recent frames to determine whether a new frame is a continuation of an existing
+trajectory or a new event.
+
+Both purposes require only that the embeddings exist in RAM during the computation.
+Neither purpose requires persistence.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Privacy-Mode Wire-Format Diff
+
+The following shows what changes in the serialized `BfldFrame` payload when the node
+transitions from class 1 (derived) to class 2 (anonymous), which is the transition
+that happens when `privacy_mode` is enabled by the operator.
+
+```

+    identity_risk_score: 0.71,         // class 1: present; class 2: OMITTED

+    zone_activity: "living_room",      // unchanged
+    confidence: 0.88,                  // unchanged
+    payload_crc32: <recomputed>        // recomputed after changes
+}
+```
+
+The wire-format diff is verified by the acceptance test suite: the same input must
+produce a deterministic output for each privacy_class value.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Default-Deny Posture for Future Fields
+
+Every new field added to `BfldFrame` or the BFLD event JSON in the future MUST be
+classified before it ships. The process:
+
+1. New field is added to `BfldFrame` struct.
+2. A `#[privacy_class(minimum = N)]` attribute annotation (or equivalent runtime
+   check in `privacy_gate.rs`) declares the minimum privacy class at which this
+   field is suppressed.
+3. Unit test asserts that serializing at class < N includes the field and at class ≥ N
+   omits it.
+4. The PR that adds the field cannot pass CI without the classification annotation.
+
+This is enforced by a custom `#[must_classify]` lint in the crate — any public field
+on `BfldFrame` without a classification attribute produces a compile warning that
+becomes a CI error.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Auditability: Verifying That Raw BFI Never Left the Network
+
+An operator who wants to verify that no raw BFI or identity data has been transmitted
+from their BFLD node can use the following procedure:
+
+### 6.1 Network-level audit (tcpdump)
+
+```bash
+# On the node or a port-mirrored switch:
+tcpdump -i eth0 -w bfld_audit.pcap port 1883 or port 8883
+
+# After capture, search for the BFI frame magic bytes in the PCAP:
+# Magic 0xBF1D_0001 in big-endian is bytes BF 1D 00 01
+# If these bytes appear in the MQTT payload, raw BFI may be present.
+# They should NOT appear — BFLD strips the angle matrix at privacy_class >= 2.
+strings bfld_audit.pcap | grep -v "presence\|motion\|person_count" | wc -l
+# Expected: only presence/motion/person_count keys in the MQTT payloads.
+```
+
+### 6.2 Node self-check command
+
+```bash
+# RuView CLI (planned for P3):
+wifi-densepose bfld audit --duration 60s
+# Output: "60 frames processed. 0 frames with raw_bfi in payload.
+#          0 frames with identity_embedding in payload.
+#          privacy_class distribution: {2: 57, 3: 3}"
+```
+
+### 6.3 CI deterministic hash check
+
+```bash
+python python/wifi_densepose/verify_bfld.py
+# Must print: VERDICT: PASS
+# If a modified binary is exfiltrating raw BFI as part of the payload,
+# the output hash will differ from the committed expected hash.
+```

+# BFLD Automation & Ecosystem Integration
+
+## 1. Home Assistant Integration
+
+### 1.1 Entities Exposed by BFLD
+
+BFLD extends the sensing-server's existing HA entity set (ADR-115, 21 entities) with
+the following new entities:
+
+| Entity | Type | HA Platform | privacy_class | Default |
+|--------|------|-------------|--------------|---------|
+| `binary_sensor.bfld_presence` | Boolean | binary_sensor | 2 — anonymous | ON |
+| `sensor.bfld_motion` | Float 0..1 | sensor | 2 — anonymous | ON |
+| `sensor.bfld_person_count` | Integer | sensor | 1 — derived | ON |
+| `sensor.bfld_confidence` | Float 0..1 | sensor | 2 — anonymous | ON |
+| `sensor.bfld_identity_risk` | Float 0..1 | sensor (diagnostic) | 1 — derived | OFF |
+| `sensor.bfld_zone_activity` | String | sensor | 2 — anonymous | ON |
+
+`bfld_identity_risk` is classified as a diagnostic entity in the HA model — it is
+hidden by default in the UI and not included in recorder history unless explicitly
+enabled. This matches the operator opt-in posture for class-1 fields.
+
+### 1.2 MQTT Discovery Payload (example for presence sensor)
+
+```json
+{
+  "name": "BFLD Presence",
+  "unique_id": "bfld_presence_<node_id_hash>",
+  "state_topic": "ruview/<node_id>/bfld/presence/state",
+  "device_class": "occupancy",
+  "payload_on": "true",
+  "payload_off": "false",
+  "device": {
+    "identifiers": ["ruview_<node_id_hash>"],
+    "name": "RuView BFLD Node",
+    "model": "wifi-densepose-bfld",
+    "manufacturer": "RuView"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Topic: `homeassistant/binary_sensor/bfld_<node_id_hash>/presence/config`
+
+### 1.3 HA Blueprints
+
+**Blueprint 1: Presence-driven lighting**
+
+Trigger: `binary_sensor.bfld_presence` changes to `on`.
+Condition: Time is between sunset and sunrise.
+Action: Turn on `light.living_room` at 40% brightness.
+Exit: `binary_sensor.bfld_presence` off for 5 minutes → turn off light.
+
+This blueprint uses only class-2 (anonymous) data. No identity information is required.
+
+**Blueprint 2: Motion-aware HVAC**
+
+Trigger: `sensor.bfld_motion` rises above 0.3 (active movement threshold).
+Action: Set `climate.living_room` to comfort mode.
+Trigger: `sensor.bfld_motion` stays below 0.1 for 20 minutes (room settled).
+Action: Set `climate.living_room` to eco mode.
+
+**Blueprint 3: Identity-risk anomaly notification**
+
+Trigger: `sensor.bfld_identity_risk` rises above 0.8 (high-risk threshold).
+Condition: privacy mode is NOT enabled.
+Action: Notify user via HA mobile app: "BFLD: High identity-leakage risk detected.
+Consider enabling privacy mode."
+
+This blueprint is the only one that touches a class-1 field. The notification is
+a privacy-protective action — it alerts the operator that the sensing environment
+has changed (e.g., new router firmware, new AP nearby, changed room geometry) in
+a way that makes the RF channel more identity-discriminative.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Matter Exposure
+
+Matter clusters expose the absolute minimum set of BFLD outputs. The constraint is
+intentional: Matter fabrics can include cloud bridges, and identity-correlated data
+must never reach cloud endpoints.
+
+### 2.1 Permitted Matter Clusters
+
+| Matter Cluster | Cluster ID | BFLD Source | Notes |
+|----------------|-----------|-------------|-------|
+| Occupancy Sensing | 0x0406 | `presence` | `OccupancySensing` attribute `Occupancy` bit 0 |
+| Motion Detection | 0x040E (proposed) | `motion` | Published as motion event cluster |
+| People Count | — (vendor extension) | `person_count` | No standard cluster yet; use vendor attribute |
+
+### 2.2 Rejected Matter Fields
+
+The following BFLD fields MUST NOT be exposed via Matter regardless of operator
+configuration:
+
+- `identity_risk_score`
+- `rf_signature_hash`
+- `raw_bfi`
+- `identity_embedding`
+- `compressed_angle_matrix`
+- Any future field classified at privacy_class < 2
+
+This rejection is enforced in the `cog-ha-matter` crate (`v2/crates/cog-ha-matter/`),
+which filters `BfldFrame` events before populating Matter attribute reports.
+
+### 2.3 Matter Endpoint Configuration
+
+```
+Endpoint 1: BFLD Occupancy
+  - Cluster: Occupancy Sensing (0x0406)
+    - Attribute 0x0000 Occupancy: 0x01 (bitmask, bit 0 = presence)
+    - Attribute 0x0001 OccupancySensorType: 0x03 (Other = WiFi RF)
+  - Cluster: Basic Information (0x0028)
+    - NodeLabel: "BFLD-<node_id_short>"
+    - ProductName: "wifi-densepose-bfld"
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. MQTT Topic Structure and ACL Recommendations
+
+### 3.1 Topic Tree
+
+```
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/
+    presence/state          # "true" | "false" — class 2
+    motion/state            # "0.42" — class 2
+    person_count/state      # "1" — class 1
+    identity_risk/state     # "0.71" — class 1, disabled by default
+    raw/state               # disabled by default, class 0 metadata only
+    zone_activity/state     # "living_room" — class 2
+    confidence/state        # "0.88" — class 2
+    events/bfld_update      # Full JSON event payload — class 2 fields only by default
+```
+
+### 3.2 Mosquitto ACL Recommendations
+
+```
+# /etc/mosquitto/acl.conf (example)
+
+# BFLD node publishes to its own subtree
+user bfld_node_<node_id>
+topic write ruview/<node_id>/bfld/#
+
+# Home Assistant reads presence, motion, count, zone, confidence
+user homeassistant
+topic read ruview/+/bfld/presence/state
+topic read ruview/+/bfld/motion/state
+topic read ruview/+/bfld/person_count/state
+topic read ruview/+/bfld/zone_activity/state
+topic read ruview/+/bfld/confidence/state
+topic read ruview/+/bfld/events/bfld_update
+
+# HA diagnostic access (operator opt-in required to add this rule):
+# topic read ruview/+/bfld/identity_risk/state
+
+# DENY all wildcard subscriptions for anonymous clients:
+# (mosquitto default: anonymous clients get no access)
+
+# DENY raw topic for all non-admin users:
+# raw/state is never written by default; no read ACL needed
+```
+
+### 3.3 TLS Configuration
+
+BFLD should use TLS for all MQTT connections. The BFLD node connects as a TLS client;
+the broker must present a certificate matching the expected CA. The sensing-server
+already supports mTLS (ADR-115). BFLD inherits this configuration.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Node-RED and OpenHAB Compatibility
+
+BFLD publishes standard MQTT payloads with consistent topic structure. No Node-RED
+or OpenHAB plugin is required; standard MQTT input/output nodes work directly.
+
+**Node-RED example flow**:
+
+```json
+[
+  {"id": "bfld-in", "type": "mqtt in",
+   "topic": "ruview/+/bfld/presence/state", "qos": "1"},
+  {"id": "filter", "type": "switch",
+   "property": "payload", "rules": [{"t": "eq", "v": "true"}]},
+  {"id": "notify", "type": "http request",
+   "url": "http://ha/api/events/bfld_presence_on"}
+]
+```
+
+**OpenHAB MQTT binding** (items file):
+
+```
+Switch BfldPresence "BFLD Presence" {mqtt="<[broker:ruview/node1/bfld/presence/state:state:default]"}
+Number BfldMotion  "BFLD Motion"   {mqtt="<[broker:ruview/node1/bfld/motion/state:state:default]"}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. cognitum-v0 Federation
+
+The cognitum-v0 appliance (Pi 5, running ruview-mcp-brain on port 9876,
+cognitum-rvf-agent on port 9004, ruvector-hailo-worker on port 50051 — see
+CLAUDE.local.md) is the fleet coordinator for multi-room correlation.
+
+BFLD events from individual nodes flow to cognitum-v0 via the federation path.
+The critical constraint: **identity fields are stripped at the node boundary before
+federation**. The stripping happens in the local BFLD emitter (`mqtt.rs`), not in
+cognitum-v0. By the time a BFLD event reaches the broker that cognitum-v0 subscribes to,
+it contains only class-2 (anonymous) or class-3 (restricted) fields.
+
+### 5.1 Federation Topics
+
+```
+# Node-local (not federated):
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/identity_risk/state
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/raw/state
+
+# Federated (forwarded to cognitum-v0 broker):
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/presence/state
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/motion/state
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/person_count/state
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/events/bfld_update
+```
+
+### 5.2 cognitum-rvf-agent Role
+
+The `cognitum-rvf-agent` (port 9004) handles cross-node RVF (RuView Frame) container
+events. For BFLD, it receives federated presence/motion/count events and can correlate
+them for multi-room occupancy (e.g., "person moved from living room node to kitchen
+node"). It does not receive or need identity information to perform this correlation —
+it uses temporal and spatial proximity, not identity.
+
+### 5.3 Hailo Inference (Future)
+
+The `ruvector-hailo-worker` (port 50051) on cognitum-v0 runs vector similarity on the
+Hailo-8 AI accelerator. A future extension could offload BFLD's identity_risk_score
+computation to the Hailo worker, keeping the identity embedding local to cognitum-v0
+while giving individual nodes the benefit of a larger enrollment pool for risk
+calibration. This is explicitly out of scope for the current BFLD spec — it is noted
+here as an integration-compatible extension point.

+
+This crate slots between `wifi-densepose-signal` (BFI normalization, temporal windowing)
+and `wifi-densepose-sensing-server` (MQTT/HA integration). It does not depend on the
+training pipeline (`wifi-densepose-train`) or the neural-network inference crate
+(`wifi-densepose-nn`) in the default build — feature flags activate those paths.

+
+## 2. Reuse Map: Existing Crates and Modules
+
+### 2.1 RuvSense Modules (wifi-densepose-signal)
+
+Path: `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-signal/src/ruvsense/`
+
+| Module | Used by BFLD | Purpose |
+|--------|-------------|---------|
+| `coherence_gate.rs` | `identity_risk.rs` | Accept/reject frame based on coherence score; gates embeddings fed into risk calculation |
+| `multistatic.rs` | `features.rs` | Attention-weighted fusion for cross_perspective_consistency component of risk score |
+| `cross_room.rs` | `privacy_gate.rs` | Environment fingerprinting — confirms that the site_salt corresponds to the current room geometry |
+| `longitudinal.rs` | `identity_risk.rs` | Welford stats for temporal_stability component |
+| `adversarial.rs` | `extractor.rs` | Physically-impossible signal detection — flags frames that may be from a compromised AP (A5 threat) |
+
+Not used by BFLD: `pose_tracker.rs`, `intention.rs`, `gesture.rs`, `tomography.rs`,
+`field_model.rs` — these operate above the identity-risk layer.
+
+### 2.2 RuVector v2.0.4 Crates
+
+| Crate | BFLD Usage | Rationale |
+|-------|-----------|-----------|
+| `ruvector-attention` | `identity_risk.rs` | Spatial attention over subcarrier dimension for embedding computation |
+| `ruvector-mincut` | `features.rs` | Person separation score as input to person_count feature |
+| `ruvector-temporal-tensor` | `extractor.rs` | Temporal windowing + compression of BFI angle sequences |
+
+Not used: `ruvector-attn-mincut`, `ruvector-solver` — spectrogram and sparse
+interpolation are not needed in the BFI pipeline.
+
+### 2.3 Cross-Viewpoint Fusion (wifi-densepose-ruvector)
+
+Path: `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-ruvector/src/viewpoint/`
+
+| Module | BFLD Usage |
+|--------|-----------|
+| `coherence.rs` | Cross-viewpoint phase coherence for cross_perspective_consistency risk component |
+| `geometry.rs` | Fisher Information / Cramer-Rao bounds for confidence estimation |
+| `attention.rs` | GeometricBias-weighted attention for multi-AP BFI fusion |
+| `fusion.rs` | MultistaticArray aggregate root — BFLD subscribes to domain events here |
+
+---
+
+## 3. ESP32 Firmware Additions
+
+### 3.1 ESP32-S3 BFI Capability Assessment
+
+The ESP32-S3's WiFi driver (`csi_collector.c` in `firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/`)
+uses `esp_wifi_csi_set_config()` and the `wifi_csi_cb_t` callback. This produces
+Espressif HT20 CSI in a vendor-specific format — amplitude + phase per subcarrier,
+not the VHT/HE Compressed Beamforming frames (CBFR) that contain Phi/Psi angles.
+
+The ESP32-S3 does NOT have a public API to generate or capture CBFR frames. Espressif's
+802.11 implementation does receive and process CBFR frames internally (for beamforming
+its own transmissions), but these are not exposed via the CSI callback.
+
+**Consequence**: BFI capture for BFLD requires host-side sniffing, not ESP32 firmware
+modification.
+
+### 3.2 Host-Side BFI Capture Path
+
+Recommended capture hardware: Raspberry Pi 5 with BCM43456 chip running Nexmon CSI
+patch. This is already present in the fleet as `cognitum-v0` (Pi 5, Tailscale IP
+100.77.59.83 per CLAUDE.local.md).
+
+Capture path:
+1. Nexmon monitor mode captures all 802.11 frames on the target channel.
+2. A filter pass extracts CBFR frames (frame type = Action, subtype = VHT/HE CBFR).
+3. The rvcsi adapter (`vendor/rvcsi/`) already handles Nexmon PCap format; add a
+   BFI extractor alongside the existing CSI extractor.
+4. Frames are forwarded to the BFLD pipeline via the existing UDP stream path
+   (`stream_sender.c` / sensing-server).
+
+### 3.3 Firmware Changes Required (Minimal)
+
+The only firmware change needed in `firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/` is to the
+`stream_sender.c` protocol: add a packet type byte to the stream header to distinguish
+CSI frames from BFI frames. The BFI frames originate on the Pi-side host, not the
+ESP32; the ESP32 stream is unchanged.
+
+```c
+// stream_sender.h — add packet type
+#define STREAM_PKT_TYPE_CSI  0x01
+#define STREAM_PKT_TYPE_BFI  0x02  // new: BFI frames from host capture
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Test Plan: 7 Acceptance Criteria Mapped to Rust Tests
+
+| AC | Criterion | Test in `acceptance.rs` |
+|----|-----------|------------------------|
+| AC1 | Commodity WiFi 5/6 capture (80/160 MHz, 2×2 MIMO minimum) | `ac1_commodity_wifi_capture`: assert BfiExtractor parses 80 MHz VHT CBFR sample fixture |
+| AC2 | Presence detection latency ≤ 1s from first non-empty BFI frame | `ac2_presence_latency`: replay 10-frame window, assert first `BfldEvent` with `presence=true` within 1,000 ms wall time |
+| AC3 | Motion score published at ≥ 1 Hz on `motion/state` topic | `ac3_motion_hz`: mock MQTT sink, run at 5 Hz input, assert ≥ 1 motion event per second |
+| AC4 | Raw BFI bytes never appear in serialized output | `ac4_raw_bfi_absent`: fuzz 1,000 random BfiCaptures, assert no bfi_matrix bytes in serialized BfldFrame for any privacy_class |
+| AC5 | Privacy-mode suppresses all identity-derived fields | `ac5_privacy_mode`: enable privacy_mode, assert BfldEvent fields identity_risk_score and rf_signature_hash are None |
+| AC6 | Deterministic frame hash for identical inputs | `ac6_deterministic_hash`: run same BfiCapture 100 times, assert all output hashes identical |
+| AC7 | CSI-optional fusion: pipeline runs without csi_matrix | `ac7_csi_optional`: run BfldPipeline with None csi_matrix, assert no panic and presence event produced |
+
+Additionally, `tests/hash_rotation.rs` must include:
+- `cross_site_isolation`: two BfldPipelines with different site_salts, identical inputs → hashes must differ
+- `daily_rotation`: same salt, frames 1 second before/after midnight → hashes must differ
+

+# BFLD Benchmarks and Evaluation Strategy
+
+## 1. Datasets
+
+### 1.1 BFId Dataset (Primary)
+
+**Reference**: Todt, Morsbach, Strufe; KIT. ACM CCS 2025.
+https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062
+https://ps.tm.kit.edu/english/bfid-dataset/index.php
+
+197 individuals. BFI and CSI recorded simultaneously. Multiple sessions, multiple AP
+angles. Available to researchers for non-commercial use on request from KIT.
+
+**Use in BFLD evaluation**: The BFId dataset provides the ground-truth identity labels
+needed to calibrate `identity_risk_score`. Specifically: given BFId's known re-ID
+accuracy as a function of time window, BFLD's identity_risk_score should correlate
+with BFId's success rate. High-risk frames (score > 0.7) should correspond to windows
+where BFId achieves > 80% accuracy; low-risk frames (score < 0.2) should correspond
+to windows where BFId accuracy approaches chance.
+
+### 1.2 Wi-Pose and MM-Fi (Context)
+
+**MM-Fi**: Multi-modal WiFi sensing dataset used by this project (ADR-015). Contains
+synchronized WiFi CSI, mmWave, and camera pose data. Does not contain BFI separately,
+but can be used to validate BFLD's CSI-optional path (AC7).
+
+**Wi-Pose**: Academic benchmark for WiFi pose estimation. CSI only; used for
+person_count and motion accuracy baselines.
+
+### 1.3 Proposed In-House Multi-Site Capture Protocol
+
+**Purpose**: Validate cross-site isolation (Invariant 3) and daily rotation.
+
+**Setup**:
+- Site A: ruvultra (RTX 5080 workstation, Tailscale 100.104.125.72) with USB WiFi
+  adapter in monitor mode.
+- Site B: cognitum-v0 (Pi 5, Tailscale 100.77.59.83) with Nexmon monitor mode.
+- Subject pool: 5–10 volunteers.
+- Protocol: Each subject walks a fixed path at each site on 3 consecutive days.
+  BFI captured simultaneously at both sites using Wi-BFI.
+
+**Analysis**:
+1. Can the BFId classifier re-identify subjects within a site? (Baseline — should
+   confirm BFId's published results.)
+2. Can any classifier re-identify subjects across sites using BFLD's
+   rf_signature_hash? (Should fail — cross-site isolation test.)
+3. Can any classifier re-identify across days using BFLD's rf_signature_hash? (Should
+   fail — daily rotation test.)
+
+---
+
+## 2. Metrics
+
+### 2.1 Presence Detection
+
+| Metric | Definition | Target |
+|--------|-----------|--------|
+| Latency p50 | Time from first non-empty BFI frame to first `presence=true` event | < 500 ms |
+| Latency p95 | | < 1000 ms (AC2) |
+| False positive rate | Presence=true when room is confirmed empty | < 5% |
+| False negative rate | Presence=false when person confirmed present | < 2% |
+
+Measurement method: camera ground-truth (ruvultra webcam via MediaPipe Pose, same
+as ADR-079 collection protocol) for empty/occupied labels.
+
+### 2.2 Motion Score
+
+| Metric | Definition | Target |
+|--------|-----------|--------|
+| MAE vs ground truth | Mean absolute error of motion score vs camera-derived motion magnitude | < 0.1 |
+| Hz at sustained operation | Events published per second on `motion/state` | >= 1 Hz (AC3) |
+| Latency p95 | Time from motion onset (camera) to motion event | < 750 ms |
+
+### 2.3 Person Count
+
+| Metric | Definition | Target |
+|--------|-----------|--------|
+| Count accuracy | Fraction of windows where BFLD person_count == camera count | > 85% for 1–3 persons |
+| Count MAE | |  < 0.5 for counts 1–4 |
+
+Person count is harder than presence. The target is achievable with MinCut separation
+(`ruvector-mincut`) but requires multi-AP coverage for 4+ persons.
+
+### 2.4 Identity Risk Calibration
+
+This is BFLD's novel evaluation dimension — no prior system has explicitly quantified
+this.
+
+**Calibration definition**: Let `r(t)` = BFLD's identity_risk_score at time t.
+Let `acc(t)` = BFId classifier's re-identification accuracy when trained on frames
+around time t. The identity_risk_score is *calibrated* if:
+
+    E[acc(t) | r(t) = v] is monotonically increasing in v
+
+In other words: higher risk scores should correspond to frames where identity inference
+is genuinely easier.
+
+**Evaluation protocol**:
+1. Run BFId classifier in sliding 5-second windows on the BFId dataset.
+2. Record per-window BFId accuracy (using leave-one-out cross-validation).
+3. Run BFLD's identity_risk_score computation on the same windows.
+4. Compute Spearman correlation between risk scores and BFId accuracy.
+5. Target: Spearman rho > 0.5 (positive monotonic correlation).
+
+### 2.5 Privacy-Mode False Positive Rate
+
+When `privacy_mode` is enabled (privacy_class = 3), all identity-correlated fields
+should be suppressed. The false positive rate is the fraction of outbound events
+that inadvertently include an identity-correlated field despite privacy_mode being
+active.
+
+**Target**: 0% (this is a hard correctness requirement, not a statistical target).
+Verified by the AC5 fuzz test in `acceptance.rs`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Red-Team Protocol
+
+### 3.1 Hash Re-identification Attack
+
+**Question**: Can an attacker re-identify a person across rotated hashes?
+
+**Setup**:
+- Run BFLD pipeline for person X across 3 days.
+- Collect `rf_signature_hash` values for each day: H_1, H_2, H_3.
+- Adversary has access to H_1, H_2, H_3 and knows they are from the same site.
+- Adversary attempts to confirm H_1, H_2, H_3 are from the same person.
+
+**Success condition**: adversary achieves confirmation rate > chance (1/N for N subjects).
+
+**Expected result**: FAIL (by construction of the hash rotation with site_salt).
+Since day_epoch changes daily and site_salt is fixed but unknown to the adversary,
+the hash function is a keyed PRF. The adversary has three random-looking 32-byte
+values with no structural relationship. Success rate should be indistinguishable from
+random guessing.
+
+**Quantitative target**: success rate <= 1/N + 0.05 (within 5% of chance).
+
+### 3.2 Cross-Site Re-identification Attack
+
+**Question**: Can an attacker confirm person X visited both site A and site B?
+
+**Setup**: Same as Section 1.3 in-house protocol. Adversary has BFLD event streams
+from both sites.
+
+**Method**: Attempt to match rf_signature_hash values from site A and site B on the
+same day. Alternatively, train a classifier on BFI features (using the raw angle
+sequences from the captured data) and attempt cross-site re-ID.
+
+**Expected result**: Hash-based matching fails by construction. Classifier-based
+re-ID may succeed if the adversary has raw angle data (which BFLD does not publish)
+but not using BFLD's published output.
+
+**Success condition**: hash-based cross-site match rate <= 1/N + 0.05.
+
+### 3.3 Timing Side-Channel Attack
+
+**Question**: Can an attacker infer a person's schedule by monitoring
+identity_risk_score over time?
+
+**Method**: Record identity_risk_score time series. Correlate with known schedule
+(person X leaves at 8am, returns at 6pm). Compute mutual information between
+schedule and risk score time series.
+
+**Expected result**: Some correlation exists (risk score rises when person enters),
+but the attacker learns "someone is present" — equivalent to the presence sensor —
+not identity. This is acceptable: presence information is already published at
+class 2.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Comparison Baselines
+
+| Baseline | Description | Presence F1 | Motion MAE | Identity leak |
+|----------|-------------|------------|-----------|--------------|
+| Raw CSI pipeline | Existing wifi-densepose pipeline (no BFLD) | ~0.95 (est.) | ~0.08 (est.) | Unquantified — no risk gating |
+| BFI-only (no BFLD) | Wi-BFI + threshold presence | ~0.82 (from LeakyBeam) | N/A | Angle matrices published |
+| BFI+CSI fusion (no BFLD) | Combined pipeline, ungated | ~0.97 (est.) | ~0.06 (est.) | Unquantified |
+| **BFLD (BFI+CSI, class 2)** | Full BFLD with anonymous privacy class | target 0.93 | target 0.10 | 0% (class 2 gate) |
+| BFLD (BFI-only, class 2) | BFLD without CSI input (AC7) | target 0.85 | target 0.12 | 0% (class 2 gate) |
+
+The BFLD privacy-class guarantee reduces the raw sensing accuracy by a small margin
+versus an ungated BFI+CSI pipeline (target F1 0.93 vs estimated 0.97). This is the
+explicit trade-off: identity safety for a modest utility cost.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Continuous Evaluation in CI
+
+Three tests run on every PR that touches the BFLD crate:
+
+1. **Deterministic hash test** (AC6): same input → same output across platforms.
+2. **Privacy-mode field suppression fuzz** (AC5): 1,000 random inputs → no identity
+   fields in class-2 output.
+3. **Latency smoke test** (AC2): 100-frame replay → first presence event < 200 ms
+   (tighter than the 1s AC target, to keep CI fast).

+| **Tracking issue** | TBD |
+
+---
+
+## 1. Context
+
+### 1.1 The Plaintext BFI Problem
+
+IEEE 802.11ac and 802.11ax beamforming feedback information (BFI) is exchanged between
+client stations (STA) and access points (AP) in unencrypted management-plane frames.
+The STA compresses the channel response into a matrix of Givens rotation angles (Phi/Psi)
+and transmits them in a VHT/HE Compressed Beamforming Report (CBFR) frame. These frames
+are passively sniffable by any device in WiFi monitor mode without any access to the
+target network.
+
+Two independent 2024–2025 research papers establish the severity of this exposure:
+
+1. **BFId** (Todt, Morsbach, Strufe; KIT; ACM CCS 2025,
+   https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062): demonstrates re-identification of
+   197 individuals using BFI alone, with >90% accuracy from 5 seconds of capture.
+2. **LeakyBeam** (Xiao et al.; Zhejiang U., NTU, KAIST; NDSS 2025,
+   https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ndss-paper/lend-me-your-beam-privacy-implications-of-plaintext-beamforming-feedback-in-wifi/):
+   demonstrates occupancy detection through walls at 20 m range using BFI, with 82.7%
+   TPR and 96.7% TNR.
+
+Tooling for passive BFI capture is freely available. Wi-BFI
+(https://arxiv.org/abs/2309.04408) is pip-installable and supports 802.11ac/ax,
+SU/MU-MIMO, 20/40/80/160 MHz channels.
+
+### 1.2 Gap in Existing Pipeline
+
+The wifi-densepose sensing pipeline processes CSI via the rvCSI runtime (ADR-095/096)
+and produces presence, pose, vitals, and zone-activity events. No layer explicitly
+measures whether the data being processed is capable of identifying specific individuals.
+The pipeline treats all CSI as equivalent from a privacy standpoint, regardless of
+whether it is operating in a high-separability (identity-leaky) or low-separability
+(anonymous) regime.
+
+This gap becomes a compliance and liability issue as WiFi sensing deployments scale.
+An operator deploying this system in a care facility, hotel, or shared office has no
+instrument to verify that the system is operating anonymously.
+
+### 1.3 The BFI Opportunity
+
+BFI is not only a threat vector — it is a complementary sensing signal. Because BFI
+encodes the channel response as a structured compressed matrix, it carries multipath
+geometry that can augment CSI-based presence and motion detection, particularly in
+scenarios where only one AP is available (fewer antenna pairs than a full MIMO CSI
+capture). The BFLD design treats BFI as an optional input alongside CSI, not as a
+replacement.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Decision
+
+We will create a new crate `wifi-densepose-bfld` (to live in `v2/crates/`) that:
+
+1. **Ingests** raw BFI (Phi/Psi angle matrices from CBFR frames) as input and optionally
+   fuses CSI when available.
+2. **Computes** nine named features and derives an `identity_risk_score` using a
+   separability × temporal_stability × cross_perspective_consistency × sample_confidence
+   formula.
+3. **Gates** all output through a `privacy_class` mechanism that structurally prevents
+   identity-correlated data from being published at privacy classes 2 and 3.
+4. **Emits** `BfldEvent` structs on MQTT topics under `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/` with
+   per-class topic routing.
+5. **Enforces** three invariants structurally (not by policy):
+   - Raw BFI never exits the node.
+   - Identity embedding is in-RAM-only.
+   - Cross-site identity correlation is made cryptographically impossible via per-site
+     keyed BLAKE3 hash rotation with a daily epoch.
+
+The `BfldFrame` wire format carries magic `0xBF1D_0001`, a version byte, hashed AP/STA
+identifiers, a quantization byte, a privacy_class byte, compressed feature payload, and
+a CRC32.
+
+Matter exposure is limited to: OccupancySensing (presence), MotionSensor (motion),
+PeopleCount (person_count). Identity fields are rejected at the Matter boundary in the
+`cog-ha-matter` crate.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- Operators gain an explicit, auditable measure of privacy compliance at the RF layer —
+  the first such primitive in the wifi-densepose ecosystem.
+- The identity_risk_score doubles as an anomaly signal: unexpected spikes indicate
+  environmental changes (new AP firmware, nearby attacker-grade sniffer, unusual
+  propagation geometry) that warrant investigation.
+- BFI fusion augments presence and motion accuracy in single-AP deployments, partially
+  compensating for lower CSI antenna counts.
+- The crate's deterministic frame hashes enable the ADR-028 witness-bundle pattern to
+  extend to the new sensing surface, preserving the existing audit trail model.
+- Cross-site identity isolation is structural, not policy-dependent. This is a stronger
+  guarantee than access-control rules.
+
+### Negative
+
+- BFI capture on ESP32-S3 hardware is not directly possible via the Espressif WiFi API.
+  The full BFLD pipeline requires a Pi 5 / Nexmon host-side sniffer (cognitum-v0 is
+  available for this purpose, but it adds a fleet dependency for the BFI path).
+- The identity_risk_score calibration (correlation with actual re-ID success rate)
+  requires the BFId dataset, which requires non-commercial research agreement with KIT.
+- ~10.5 engineer-weeks of implementation effort.
+
+### Neutral
+
+- BFLD does not prevent passive BFI capture by an external attacker (A1 / LeakyBeam
+  threat). It only ensures the node's own output is non-identifying. Operators should
+  be informed of this distinction.
+- The daily hash rotation means that occupant-counting analytics that span multiple
+  days cannot correlate individual signatures across the day boundary. This is a privacy
+  benefit that some analytics use-cases may find inconvenient.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Alternatives Considered
+
+### Alt 1: Skip BFI entirely, CSI-only pipeline
+
+The rvCSI pipeline (ADR-095/096) already handles CSI without BFI. This alternative
+requires no new crate and no change to the ESP32 firmware.
+
+**Rejected because**: (a) it leaves the identity-leakage detection gap open for the
+existing CSI pipeline, and (b) as BFI capture tooling becomes more widespread (Wi-BFI,
+PicoScenes), the absence of a privacy layer becomes more conspicuous for operators.
+
+### Alt 2: Publish identity_risk_score publicly (default-on)
+
+Treat the risk score as a diagnostic metric that operators and the public can observe.
+
+**Rejected because**: the risk score is itself a privacy-sensitive signal (it reveals
+when a specific person is present via timing correlation). The default should be
+opt-in, with the operator explicitly acknowledging the trade-off.
+
+### Alt 3: Use raw BFI in cloud ML training
+
+Send raw BFI angle matrices to a cloud training service to improve model quality.
+
+**Rejected because**: this violates Invariant 1. Cloud training on raw BFI would
+create an off-node store of angle matrices that could be reconstructed into identity
+profiles. The on-device-only constraint is not negotiable.
+
+### Alt 4: Differential privacy noise injection on BFI before any processing
+
+Add calibrated Laplace/Gaussian noise to the angle matrices at ingress to provide
+epsilon-differential privacy on all downstream computations.
+
+**Rejected for this ADR** (noted as future extension): DP noise calibration requires
+sensitivity analysis that is not yet complete, and the interaction between DP noise
+and the identity_risk_score formula requires separate validation. The current design
+achieves privacy through structural impossibility (local-only, hash rotation) rather
+than noise injection.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: The extractor parses BFI from commodity WiFi 5 (802.11ac) and WiFi 6
+  (802.11ax) captures, supporting 20/40/80/160 MHz channel bandwidth and 2×2 through
+  4×4 MIMO configurations.

+**Title**: feat: BFLD — Beamforming Feedback Layer for Detection (privacy-gated WiFi sensing)
+
+**Labels**: `enhancement`, `privacy`, `security`, `area/signal`, `area/firmware`
+
+**Milestone**: (TBD — suggest: v0.8.0)
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+Add a new crate `wifi-densepose-bfld` that turns raw 802.11 Beamforming Feedback
+Information (BFI) into bounded, privacy-gated sensing outputs. BFLD detects when RF
+data crosses from "ambient sensing" into "identity record" and structurally prevents
+identity-correlated data from leaving the node.
+
+This is the safety layer that was missing from the CSI pipeline. As passive BFI sniffing
+tools (Wi-BFI, PicoScenes) become widely available and academic attacks (BFId at ACM CCS
+2025, LeakyBeam at NDSS 2025) demonstrate >90% re-identification from commodity WiFi,
+the wifi-densepose ecosystem needs an explicit privacy layer before scaling deployment.
+
+## Motivation
+
+1. **BFI is plaintext and passively sniffable.** IEEE 802.11ac/ax CBFR frames are
+   transmitted before WPA2/WPA3 encryption is applied. Any nearby device in monitor mode
+   can capture them (NDSS 2025: https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ndss-paper/lend-me-your-beam-privacy-implications-of-plaintext-beamforming-feedback-in-wifi/).
+
+2. **BFI enables re-identification.** The KIT BFId paper (ACM CCS 2025:
+   https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062) demonstrates >90% identity
+   recognition from 5 seconds of BFI, from a dataset of 197 individuals, using only
+   the Phi/Psi Givens rotation angles.
+
+3. **The existing pipeline has no identity-leakage measurement.** The rvCSI pipeline
+   produces presence/motion/pose events without any indication of whether those outputs
+   were derived from identity-discriminative data. An operator deploying in a care
+   facility or shared office has no way to verify the system is behaving anonymously.
+
+4. **WiFi 7 will make this worse.** 802.11be (Wi-Fi 7) multi-link operation increases
+   sounding frequency 3–5×. The attack surface is not static.
+
+## Proposed Solution
+
+New crate at `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/` with the following pipeline:
+
+```
+BFI capture (CBFR frames, Pi 5 / Nexmon monitor mode)
+    → BFI extractor (Phi/Psi parser, 802.11ac/ax)
+    → Normalization + temporal windowing
+    → Feature extraction (9 named features)
+    → Identity risk engine (in-RAM embeddings, coherence gate)
+    → Privacy gate (privacy_class byte, field masking)
+    → MQTT emitter (per-class topic routing)
+```
+
+Three structural invariants (not configurable, not policy):
+1. Raw BFI never leaves the node.
+2. Identity embedding is in-RAM-only (VecDeque, never persisted).
+3. Cross-site identity matching is cryptographically impossible via per-site BLAKE3
+   keyed hash with daily rotation.
+
+Output events published on `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/{presence,motion,person_count,...}/state`.
+
+Matter and HA expose only: presence, motion, person_count. Identity fields are rejected
+at both boundaries.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] **AC1**: Parser handles 802.11ac VHT and 802.11ax HE CBFR frames at 20/40/80/160 MHz,
+  2×2 through 4×4 MIMO.
+- [ ] **AC2**: Presence detection latency ≤ 1s p95 from first non-empty BFI frame in
+  a new occupancy event.
+- [ ] **AC3**: Motion score published at ≥ 1 Hz on `ruview/<node_id>/bfld/motion/state`
+  during sustained occupancy.
+- [ ] **AC4**: Raw BFI bytes (Phi/Psi angle matrices) are never present in any
+  serialized output at any `privacy_class` value.
+- [ ] **AC5**: Privacy mode suppresses all identity-derived fields (`identity_risk_score`,
+  `rf_signature_hash`, `identity_embedding`) from all outbound events.
+- [ ] **AC6**: Identical `BfiCapture` input → bit-identical `BfldFrame` output
+  (deterministic, cross-platform).
+- [ ] **AC7**: Pipeline produces valid `BfldEvent` with `csi_matrix = None` (BFI-only
+  mode), without panic or significant accuracy degradation.

+# BFLD: The Privacy Layer Your WiFi Sensing Stack Has Been Missing
+
+Your WiFi router is broadcasting your identity in plaintext. Here is the layer that
+catches it.
+
+---
+
+## The Problem
+
+Every time your phone or laptop connects to a WiFi 5 or WiFi 6 router, it periodically
+transmits a Beamforming Feedback Report (CBFR frame). This frame contains the compressed
+channel matrix the router needs to aim its antennas at your device. The compression uses
+Givens rotations — a pair of angles (Phi and Psi) per active subcarrier — that encode
+the spatial geometry of the wireless channel around your body.
+
+Here is the catch: these frames are transmitted before WPA2/WPA3 encryption is applied.
+They are plaintext management frames, passively readable by any WiFi adapter in monitor
+mode within roughly 20 meters.
+
+Two papers published in 2024–2025 confirm the threat is real:
+
+- **BFId** (KIT, ACM CCS 2025): re-identifies 197 people from beamforming feedback alone,
+  >90% accuracy from just 5 seconds of capture. Tools needed: a WiFi adapter, a pip
+  install, and no access to the target network.
+  (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3719027.3765062)
+
+- **LeakyBeam** (Zhejiang U. / NTU / KAIST, NDSS 2025): detects occupancy through walls
+  at 20 m range using beamforming feedback with 82.7% accuracy.
+  (https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ndss-paper/lend-me-your-beam-privacy-implications-of-plaintext-beamforming-feedback-in-wifi/)
+
+WiFi sensing systems — including this project — process these same signals to detect
+presence, count people, and track motion. Without a privacy layer, there is no way to
+know whether the sensing output is derived from anonymizable motion data or from
+identity-discriminative data.
+
+---
+
+## What BFLD Does
+
+BFLD (Beamforming Feedback Layer for Detection) is a new Rust crate in the
+wifi-densepose workspace that adds one thing: an explicit, continuous measurement of
+whether the beamforming data currently being processed is capable of identifying
+individuals.
+
+It outputs a small, structured event on every sensing cycle:
+
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp_ns": 1748092800000000000,
+  "presence": true,
+  "motion": 0.42,
+  "person_count": 1,
+  "identity_risk_score": 0.71,
+  "rf_signature_hash": "a3f2c1...e9b4",
+  "zone_id": "living_room",
+  "confidence": 0.88,
+  "privacy_class": 1
+}
+```
+
+High `identity_risk_score` (approaching 1.0) means the current sensing environment is
+producing data from which an attacker could re-identify individuals. Low score means
+the data is effectively anonymous.
+
+The score is computed from four components: how separable the current RF embedding is
+from a population distribution, how stable that separability is over time, how
+consistent it is across multiple sensor viewpoints, and how confident the current sample
+is. Multiply them together, clamp to [0, 1].
+
+---
+
+## Three Invariants That Cannot Be Turned Off
+
+BFLD enforces three properties structurally — not as settings, not as policies:
+
+**1. Raw BFI never leaves the node.** The Phi/Psi angle matrices are consumed locally
+and dropped after feature extraction. They are not in the wire format. They are not in
+the MQTT payload. There is no code path to serialize them outbound.
+
+**2. Identity embeddings are RAM-only.** The vector embedding used to compute the risk
+score lives in a fixed-size ring buffer (default: 10 minutes). It is never written to
+disk. When the node restarts, the buffer is gone.
+
+**3. Cross-site re-identification is cryptographically impossible.** The
+`rf_signature_hash` is computed with a per-site secret key (generated at first boot,
+stored in local NVS, never transmitted) and a per-day epoch. Two nodes at two
+different sites, even receiving signals from the same person on the same day, produce
+hash values in completely disjoint hash spaces. No amount of hash-list comparison can
+reveal a cross-site visit.
+
+---
+
+## What Reaches Home Assistant and Matter
+
+BFLD publishes to MQTT and HA. The following entities reach HA:
+
+- `binary_sensor.bfld_presence`
+- `sensor.bfld_motion`
+- `sensor.bfld_person_count`
+- `sensor.bfld_confidence`
+
+The Matter bridge exposes only OccupancySensing (presence) and motion. Identity risk
+score, rf_signature_hash, and all raw fields are rejected at both the HA and Matter
+boundaries.
+
+---
+
+## Seven Acceptance Criteria
+
+The implementation is done when these seven tests pass:
+
+1. Parse 802.11ac and 802.11ax BFI at 20–160 MHz bandwidth, 2×2 to 4×4 MIMO.
+2. Presence latency ≤ 1 second p95.
+3. Motion published at ≥ 1 Hz.
+4. Raw BFI bytes absent from all output (verified by fuzz test).
+5. Privacy mode suppresses all identity fields.
+6. Identical input → identical output hash (cross-platform determinism).
+7. Pipeline runs without CSI input (BFI-only mode).
+
+---
+
+## BFLD Is an Immune System, Not a Surveillance Lens
+
+The framing matters. BFLD does not produce identity — it measures identity risk and
+uses that measurement to gate what leaves the node. An immune system does not broadcast
+the identity of pathogens it encounters; it classifies, responds locally, and keeps
+detailed records inside the organism.
+
+WiFi 7 / 802.11be is deploying now. Multi-link operation will increase beamforming
+sounding frequency 3–5x. The passive attack surface will grow. The time to establish
+safe defaults in WiFi sensing stacks is before that installed base is in place.
+
+BFLD is that default.

+## Executive Summary
+
+1. **Problem.** IEEE 802.11ac/ax beamforming feedback (BFI) — the compressed angle matrices
+   (Phi/Psi, Givens rotation) exchanged between client and AP — is transmitted unencrypted
+   on the management plane. Academic work (BFId at ACM CCS 2025, LeakyBeam at NDSS 2025)
+   demonstrates that a passive sniffer with commodity hardware can re-identify individuals
+   and infer occupancy through walls using only these frames. Existing CSI-based sensing
+   pipelines have no explicit layer to detect when their output crosses from "motion event"
+   into "identity record."
+
+2. **Approach.** BFLD is a new crate (`wifi-densepose-bfld`) that wraps the BFI extraction
+   and normalization path in an identity-leakage estimator. Every output frame carries a
+   computed `identity_risk_score` and a `privacy_class` byte; downstream consumers decide
+   whether to act based on those tags rather than on raw measurements.
+
+3. **Novel contribution.** BFLD does not try to suppress identity inference — it tries to
+   *measure* it continuously and make the measurement explicit in every event. This
+   transforms a latent, silent risk into an observable, auditable signal. The combination
+   of per-day per-site hash rotation and a local-only identity embedding creates structural
+   impossibility of cross-site re-identification — not merely a policy promise.
+
+4. **Security posture.** Raw BFI never leaves the node. Identity embeddings live only in
+   an in-RAM ring buffer. The rf_signature_hash rotates daily using a per-site blake3
+   keyed-hash that is never transmitted. Matter and HA expose only presence, motion, and
+   person_count — never risk scores or embeddings.
+
+5. **Integration plan.** Six phases: P1 frame format + extractor stub, P2 feature
+   extraction + identity_risk, P3 privacy gate + MQTT, P4 HA integration, P5 Matter
+   exposure, P6 cognitum federation. Each phase maps to a numbered acceptance criterion.
+   The crate slots into the existing workspace between `wifi-densepose-signal` and
+   `wifi-densepose-sensing-server`.

+# rvAgent + RVF integration for agentic flows in RuView
+
+**Status**: Research (Exploration) — Pre-Proposal
+**Date**: 2026-05-24
+**Author**: ruv
+
+---
+
+## TL;DR
+
+`vendor/ruvector/crates/rvAgent/` ships a production-grade Rust AI-agent framework with eight composable crates (`rvagent-core`, `-middleware`, `-tools`, `-subagents`, `-backends`, `-a2a`, `-acp`, `-mcp`, `-cli`). The framework already speaks **RVF cognitive containers** as its native state-persistence and inter-agent transport. RuView already uses RVF in `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/rvf_container.rs`.
+
+**Integration thesis**: the two systems share a serialization substrate. Wiring `rvAgent` swarms into RuView turns the existing sensing pipeline into the substrate that an agentic flow can read from, reason about, and respond to — without writing a new agent runtime.
+
+Concrete value:
+
+1. **Operator-facing agents** that interpret BFLD / pose / vitals events live ("the kitchen has had no presence for 6 h but the kettle stayed on — page the carer").
+2. **In-process subagent coordination** for the multi-cog Cognitum Seed appliance — `cog-pose-estimation`, `cog-person-count`, `cog-ha-matter`, and the new BFLD pipeline can negotiate via rvAgent's CRDT state merging instead of ad-hoc IPC.
+3. **Witness chains** (ADR-028 / ADR-110) get an upstream consumer — rvAgent's audit-trail middleware persists per-decision attestations into the same RVF container an operator already verifies.
+4. **Local SONA learning** — rvAgent's 3-loop adaptive learning slots in alongside the per-home RuVector thresholds already proposed in ADR-116, with the same in-RAM-only privacy posture BFLD enforces (ADR-118 I2).
+
+---
+
+## 1. What rvAgent ships
+
+| Crate | Role | Key types |
+|-------|------|-----------|
+| `rvagent-core` | State machine + COW state cloning + budget tracking | `AgentState`, `Message`, `AgiContainer`, `Arena`, `Budget`, `Graph` |
+| `rvagent-middleware` | 14 built-in middlewares (security, witness, sanitizer, sona, hnsw) | `PipelineConfig`, `build_default_pipeline()` |
+| `rvagent-tools` | Tool definitions + dispatch | `Tool`, `ToolInput`, `ToolOutput` |
+| `rvagent-subagents` | Spawn isolated subagents with O(1) state clone | `Subagent`, CRDT merge |
+| `rvagent-backends` | LLM provider abstraction (Anthropic, OpenAI, local) | `Backend` trait |
+| `rvagent-mcp` | MCP server integration | MCP-style tool registry |
+| `rvagent-a2a` / `-acp` | Agent-to-agent transport, agent communication protocol | wire format |
+| `rvagent-cli` | Operator CLI | argv parsing |
+
+Selling points relevant to RuView:
+
+- **O(1) state cloning via `Arc`** → can spawn one subagent per sensing zone without copying gigabytes of context.
+- **Parallel tool execution** → multiple sensor queries (BFLD presence, vitals BPM, pose) issued in parallel from one rvAgent decision step.
+- **Path confinement + env-var sanitization** → operator-facing agents that touch the host filesystem (e.g., reading `data/recordings/`) stay sandboxed.
+- **Witness chains** in `rvagent-middleware::witness` → already RVF-formatted; round-trips cleanly with ADR-028.
+
+## 2. What RVF already does in RuView
+
+`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/rvf_container.rs` defines the on-disk container format used for:
+
+- ADR-110 witness attestations (`SEG_MANIFEST`, `SEG_META`).
+- Soul Signature graphs (`docs/research/soul/specification.md` §3).
+- BFLD class-1 (derived) frames once the operator opts into research mode (ADR-118 §1.4).
+
+Each RVF blob is content-addressed (BLAKE3 of the canonical byte representation) and carries a typed segment manifest. The format is intentionally extension-friendly — segment types are `u8` enums, new types can land without breaking older readers.
+
+## 3. The integration surface
+
+Three concrete touchpoints, each shippable independently.
+
+### 3.1 RVF as the rvAgent ↔ RuView wire
+
+rvAgent's `AgiContainer` (`rvagent-core/src/agi_container.rs`, 627 LOC) already produces RVF-compatible blobs as its persistent state format. RuView only needs to define **two segment types** in `rvf_container.rs`:
+
+- `SEG_AGENT_STATE = 0x08` — serialized `rvagent_core::AgentState` (the cloned-on-write tree from `cow_state.rs`).
+- `SEG_DECISION = 0x09` — a single agent decision step: tool calls issued, outputs received, witness signature.
+
+With these two segments, an rvAgent session and a RuView sensing session can interleave entries in the same RVF blob. The witness-bundle script (ADR-028) iterates segments by type, so it would attest both halves with one signing pass.
+
+### 3.2 BFLD events as rvAgent tool inputs
+
+`wifi-densepose-bfld::BfldEvent` (iter 13) is already JSON-serializable via `to_json()`. Wrapping it as an `rvagent_tools::ToolOutput` is a 20-line shim: the agent issues a `read_bfld_state()` tool, the runtime returns the latest event JSON, the agent reasons over it. The full event surface (presence/motion/count/identity_risk/zone_id) becomes available as agent context without any new IPC.
+
+`BfldEvent → ToolOutput` mapping:
+```rust
+impl From<BfldEvent> for ToolOutput {
+    fn from(e: BfldEvent) -> Self {
+        ToolOutput::json(e.to_json().expect("BfldEvent JSON"))
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### 3.3 cog-* as rvAgent subagents
+
+`cog-pose-estimation`, `cog-person-count`, `cog-ha-matter`, and (proposed) `cog-bfld` already share a packaging convention (ADR-100). Each cog can register as a subagent with rvAgent's hub: the cog implements the `Subagent` trait, exports its tool surface, and inherits the parent agent's CRDT state. The queen agent (`rvagent-queen.md` persona) routes operator queries across the cog mesh.
+
+Concrete example:
+- Operator query: "is grandma awake yet?"
+- Queen agent fans out to: `cog-bfld` (presence in bedroom), `cog-quantum-vitals` (HR baseline shift), `cog-pose-estimation` (sitting/standing transition).
+- Each cog returns within budget; queen synthesizes the answer; witness chain logs the decision for compliance audit.
+
+## 4. Open questions
+
+1. **Workspace inclusion**: is `vendor/ruvector/crates/rvAgent/` already on the v2 workspace path, or does it need to be added as a path dep under `wifi-densepose-bfld` / a new `wifi-densepose-agent` crate?
+2. **Async runtime**: rvAgent backends are tokio-based. The BFLD `Publish` trait is intentionally sync (iter 22). A small adapter (sync `Publish` ↔ async `Backend`) probably belongs in a `wifi-densepose-agent` crate, not in BFLD itself.
+3. **Privacy class composition**: what's the rvAgent equivalent of BFLD's `PrivacyClass`? `rvagent-middleware::sanitizer` strips at the tool-output boundary; should it consume `PrivacyClass` from the originating BFLD event so the agent never even sees a class-3 identity field?
+4. **Soul Signature interaction**: rvAgent's `SoulMatchOracle` integration (ADR-121 §2.6) could be the bridge from the Soul Signature graph (`docs/research/soul/`) to the agent decision layer. Worth a dedicated sub-section.
+5. **MCP**: `rvagent-mcp` exposes tools to external MCP clients. Should the BFLD `BfldPipelineHandle::send` surface land as an MCP tool here, or stay private to in-process rvAgent flows?
+
+## 5. Proposed next steps (decision deferred)
+
+- **D1**: Open ADR-124 — "rvAgent + RVF integration for RuView agentic flows" — capturing the segment-type assignments, the cog-subagent contract, and the privacy-class composition rule.
+- **D2**: Scaffold `v2/crates/wifi-densepose-agent` with the sync ↔ async adapter and one example tool (`read_bfld_state`).
+- **D3**: Add `SEG_AGENT_STATE` and `SEG_DECISION` to `rvf_container.rs` as `#[cfg(feature = "agent")]` segments so the v0 ship doesn't pull rvAgent's transitive deps by default.
+- **D4**: Land a one-page demo in `examples/agent-bedroom-check/` showing the queen-agent flow end-to-end against the `BfldPipelineHandle`.

+# Soul Signature — Research Specification
+
+**Status:** Research Specification (Pre-Implementation)
+**Date:** 2026-05-24
+**Maintainer:** ruv
+
+---
+
+## What Is a Soul Signature
+
+A Soul Signature is a fused multi-modal biometric identity vector derived entirely
+from passive electromagnetic measurement of a person inside a room equipped with
+WiFi-DensePose / RuView sensing nodes. No wearable, no camera, no explicit
+scan-time consent moment is required for recognition once a person has enrolled.
+
+The word "soul" is deliberate product framing for a scientifically defensible concept:
+the same relationship a fingerprint bears to identity in forensic science, or FaceID
+to phone authentication, but extended to a new sensing dimension — passive RF at
+distance, through walls, at room scale. Seven orthogonal electromagnetic observables,
+fused into a single content-addressed RVF graph file, constitute the signature.
+
+The claim is not mystical. Every channel is grounded in published physics and prior
+WiFi sensing literature. Every assertion about discriminative power either cites a
+peer-reviewed result or is explicitly marked "open research; baseline TBD."
+
+---
+
+## What a Soul Signature Is NOT
+
+- It is NOT a replacement for fingerprint scanners, iris scanners, or FaceID on
+  accuracy-per-attempt measures. Current RF biometrics are less mature than those
+  modalities. See `security.md` for the honest error-rate picture.
+- It is NOT a single number, hash, or deterministic bit string. It is a
+  probabilistic match against a stored graph with a calibrated false-accept rate.
+- It is NOT medically diagnostic. It detects biophysical proxies, not conditions.
+  "Gait asymmetry increased 18% over 14 days" is the output, never "Parkinson's."
+- It is NOT equivalent to explicit-consent biometrics in regulated contexts. GDPR
+  and HIPAA modes are defined and mandatory for healthcare deployments.
+- It is NOT currently deployable as a legal evidence instrument.
+- It is NOT snake oil, energy healing, or anything outside measurable electrophysics.

+# Soul Signature — Scanning Process
+
+**Status:** Research Specification (Pre-Implementation)
+**Date:** 2026-05-24
+**Author:** ruv
+
+---
+
+## 1. Hardware Prerequisites
+
+### 1.1 Full Protocol (N ≥ 3 Nodes)
+
+| Component | Minimum | Recommended | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Sensing nodes | 3 × ESP32-S3 (ADR-028) | 5+ nodes | Multi-node triangulation reduces angle-dependent blind spots; ADR-029 multistatic mesh |
+| Compute appliance | Cognitum Seed (Pi 5 + Hailo) | Same | Runs the field model, AETHER inference, vitals pipeline |
+| Network link | 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz AP | Dedicated sensing AP | Shared AP with user traffic degrades CSI frame rate |
+| Firmware version | ADR-110 v0.7.0+ | Same | Ed25519 witness chain required for attestation |
+| Clock sync | 802.15.4 time-sync (ESP32-C6) or NTP fallback | 802.15.4 preferred | ±100 µs alignment per ADR-110; NTP gives ±5 ms |
+
+### 1.2 Degraded Mode (1 Node)
+
+A single-node enrollment produces an incomplete signature:
+- Skeletal proportions: degraded (single-angle view)
+- Subcarrier reflection profile: single orientation only (3-orientation protocol collapses to 1)
+- AETHER embedding: usable but lower confidence
+- Cardiac / respiratory: unaffected (single-node sufficient)
+- Gait timing: usable if node placement allows bidirectional walk
+
+Single-node signatures MUST be tagged `degraded_mode: true` in the manifest. The
+match score uses only the channels that met minimum confidence thresholds. The
+soul signature is technically valid but should be re-enrolled with multi-node
+hardware when possible.
+
+### 1.3 ESP32-C6 Uplift (Wi-Fi 6 HE-LTF)
+
+When at least one ESP32-C6 node is present (ADR-110), the subcarrier count
+expands from 52 (HT-LTF, S3) to up to 242 (HE-LTF, C6). The MERIDIAN
+HardwareNormalizer (ADR-027) maps all nodes to a canonical 56-subcarrier
+representation for the AETHER backbone. The full 242-subcarrier profile is
+preserved in the SubcarrierReflectionProfile node for higher-fidelity matching
+when available. The C6's 802.15.4 time-sync (±100 µs) also improves multistatic
+coherence relative to NTP-only S3 meshes.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Structured 60-Second Enrollment Protocol
+
+The enrollment protocol produces exactly one `.rvf` soul signature file. The
+protocol is structured into five phases with exact timing. A human-readable
+prompt sequence should be delivered to the subject via audio or display.
+
+### Phase 0 — Empty-Room Field Recalibration (T+0 to T+10)
+
+Before the subject enters the sensing zone, the room must be empty and the
+ADR-030 field model must be current.
+
+```
+T+0s   : System checks field model age. Maximum age: 4 hours.
+          If stale or absent → run field recalibration:
+            Collect 1,200 CSI frames at 20 Hz (60 seconds of empty room)
+            Compute per-link Welford mean and covariance
+            Run SVD on covariance matrix → top-K=8 eigenmode vectors
+            Store in field_model.rs::FieldNormalMode
+
+T+0–10s: Quiet sampling of empty-room field state. No subject present.
+          Operator prompt: "Please ensure the room is empty."
+          System: verifies presence score < 0.1 (ADR-039 Tier 2 presence detection).
+          Failure: if presence score ≥ 0.1, abort and report FAIL_ROOM_NOT_EMPTY.
+```
+
+This phase is skipped (not aborted) if the field model was updated within the
+last 4 hours AND the current empty-room sampling confirms presence score < 0.05.
+
+### Phase 1 — Deep Breathing Baseline (T+10 to T+25)
+
+Subject enters the sensing zone and performs five deep breathing cycles.
+
+```
+T+10s  : Subject enters scan zone. System detects presence.
+          Operator prompt: "Please stand still and breathe slowly and deeply."
+
+T+10–25s: Subject stands at zone center, facing node cluster.
+           Five complete breath cycles, each ≥ 4 seconds.
+           System collects:
+             - ADR-021 BreathingExtractor: baseline_bpm, depth_amplitude,
+               inspiration_expiration_ratio, HRV_RSA
+             - ADR-021 HeartRateExtractor: initial HR, HRV_SDNN (partial)
+             - AETHER embedding: accumulates over 300 CSI frames (20 Hz × 15s)
+           Quality gate: BreathingExtractor VitalCoherenceGate must emit
+             PERMIT for ≥ 10 of the 15 seconds. Failure → FAIL_POOR_BREATHING_SIGNAL.
+```
+
+### Phase 2 — Seated Rest (T+25 to T+35)
+
+Subject sits to minimize motion and allow cardiac signal isolation.
+
+```
+T+25s  : Operator prompt: "Please sit down and rest quietly."
+
+T+25–35s: Subject seated, minimal movement.
+           System collects:
+             - HeartRateExtractor: HR baseline, HRV_SDNN, HRV_RMSSD,
+               LF/HF ratio, sinus rhythm classification
+             - Cardiac_Waveform_Morphology: 64-coefficient wavelet decomposition
+               of bandpass-filtered cardiac phase signal (0.8–2.0 Hz)
+           Quality gate: HR confidence ≥ 0.6 for ≥ 7 of 10 seconds.
+             Failure → FAIL_POOR_CARDIAC_SIGNAL (soft failure: cardiac nodes
+             marked low-confidence; signature proceeds without them if AETHER
+             and gait nodes pass their own thresholds).
+```
+
+### Phase 3 — Gait Walk (T+35 to T+50)
+
+Subject walks a 2-meter line twice in each direction.
+
+```
+T+35s  : Operator prompt: "Please walk a straight line of 2 meters back and
+          forth twice at your natural pace."
+
+T+35–50s: Subject walks: A→B, B→A, A→B, B→A (four transits, ≥ 8 strides total).
+           System collects (via pose_tracker.rs, ADR-029 Sect 2.7):
+             - GaitTimingNode: cadence, stride_period_variance,
+               double_support_pct, asymmetry_index, step_width_m
+             - SkeletalProportionsNode: torso/limb ratios from 17-keypoint
+               trajectory accumulated over ≥ 8 strides
+             - AETHER embedding: continues accumulating (300 more frames)
+           Quality gate: ≥ 8 strides detected with confidence ≥ 0.7 per stride.
+             Failure → FAIL_INSUFFICIENT_GAIT_DATA.
+           Note: the ruvector-mincut DynamicPersonMatcher must confirm only one
+           person is tracked. If two tracks are active → FAIL_MULTIPLE_SUBJECTS.
+```
+
+### Phase 4 — Standing Orientation Scan (T+50 to T+60)
+
+Subject stands at three orientations to capture the subcarrier reflection profile.
+
+```
+T+50s  : Operator prompt: "Please stand facing the wall. I will ask you to
+          rotate in place twice."
+
+T+50–53s: Orientation 0° (subject faces primary node cluster).
+           System collects: SubcarrierReflectionProfile at 0°
+           (ADR-030 field-subtracted, 56 subcarriers, amplitude + phase).
+
+T+53s  : Operator prompt: "Please turn 90 degrees to your right."
+
+T+53–56s: Orientation 90°.
+           System collects: SubcarrierReflectionProfile at 90°.
+
+T+56s  : Operator prompt: "Please turn 90 degrees to your right again."
+
+T+56–60s: Orientation 180°.
+           System collects: SubcarrierReflectionProfile at 180°.
+           Body_Field_Coupling: computed from AETHER attention map weighted
+           by ADR-030 top-K=8 eigenvectors (final computation at T=60s).
+
+T+60s  : Enrollment window closes.
+          AETHER embedding finalized: mean pool over all ~1,200 accumulated frames.
+          All node confidence values computed.
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Quality Gates
+
+The enrollment FAILS and emits a structured error code if any of the following
+conditions are met. Failed enrollments do not produce a stored `.rvf` file.
+
+| Gate | Condition for FAIL | Error code |
+|---|---|---|
+| Room occupied | Presence score ≥ 0.1 at Phase 0 end | `FAIL_ROOM_NOT_EMPTY` |
+| Multiple subjects | ≥ 2 active pose tracks during Phases 1–4 | `FAIL_MULTIPLE_SUBJECTS` |
+| Intermittent presence | Subject exits sensing zone for > 3 consecutive seconds | `FAIL_SUBJECT_LEFT_ZONE` |
+| AETHER confidence low | Final embedding confidence < 0.6 (HNSW search confidence) | `FAIL_AETHER_LOW_CONFIDENCE` |
+| Breathing signal absent | VitalCoherenceGate PERMIT rate < 67% during Phase 1 | `FAIL_POOR_BREATHING_SIGNAL` |
+| Gait data insufficient | Fewer than 8 strides detected with confidence ≥ 0.7 | `FAIL_INSUFFICIENT_GAIT_DATA` |
+| Field model dirty | Field model age > 4 hours and recalibration refused | `FAIL_STALE_FIELD_MODEL` |
+| Adversarial detection | RuvSense adversarial.rs flags physically impossible signal | `FAIL_ADVERSARIAL_SIGNAL` |
+| Node count below minimum | Fewer than 2 nodes online during Phases 3–4 | `WARN_DEGRADED_MODE` (not a hard fail; produces degraded signature) |
+
+Soft failures (cardiac signal only) do not abort the enrollment; they mark those
+nodes as low-confidence and reduce the match weight for those channels at
+recognition time.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Fast Scan (10-Second Degraded Identification)
+
+A fast scan produces a partial query embedding, not a stored profile. It is used
+for recognition of already-enrolled subjects, not for new enrollment.
+
+```
+T+0s   : System checks whether field model is current (age < 4 hours).
+          If stale: recognition accuracy degraded; warn operator.
+
+T+0–10s: Subject stands still at zone center, natural breathing.
+          System collects: AETHER embedding (200 frames, 10s at 20 Hz).
+          Cardiac HR: partial (confidence typically < 0.5).
+          Gait: not available.
+          Subcarrier reflection: 1 orientation only.
+
+T+10s  : Query issued against all stored profiles in HNSW index.
+          Match score computed using available channels only.
+          Cardiac, gait, and skeletal proportions excluded from denominator
+          (availability factor = 0 for absent channels).
+```
+
+Fast scan is acceptable for:
+- Returning resident recognition (already enrolled, low-friction use case)
+- Home automation triggers (occupancy attribution per ADR-115 HA-MIND)
+
+Fast scan is NOT acceptable for:
+- Initial enrollment
+- High-assurance access control
+- Healthcare identification
+
+---
+
+## 5. Continuous Mode — Implicit Signature Refinement
+
+In continuous operating mode, the system incrementally updates the online
+aggregator for enrolled persons as they go about their normal activities. The
+stored profile is re-published from the aggregator every 90 days (or on the
+re-scan cadence, whichever comes first). This means a deployed system becomes
+more accurate over time, not less.
+
+Convergence property: the Welford online statistics in the aggregator are
+numerically stable and converge to the true population mean/variance as
+observation count increases. The AETHER embedding accumulated over thousands
+of natural-activity windows is more representative than a single 60-second
+enrollment. The stored profile is replaced (not amended) on each re-publish; the
+old profile is archived (not deleted) per the forward-secrecy requirements in
+`security.md`.
+
+The continuous mode raises a consent concern: a person is effectively being
+re-enrolled continuously without explicit action. This is addressed in
+`security.md §4` (Consent Architecture).
+
+---
+
+## 6. Multi-Room Enrollment
+
+When a person moves across multiple sensing zones (e.g., living room and bedroom
+each with a Cognitum Seed node cluster), the cross-room signature works as follows:
+
+1. Full 60-second enrollment is performed in the primary room. This produces the
+   initial stored profile with `environment_normalized: false` in the manifest.
+
+2. When the MERIDIAN domain generalization layer (ADR-027) is active, the
+   HardwareNormalizer maps the enrollment embedding to the environment-invariant
+   subspace. The stored profile is updated to `environment_normalized: true`.
+
+3. In subsequent rooms, a fast scan (10s) is sufficient to attribute identity. The
+   MERIDIAN-normalized AETHER embedding handles the room shift.
+
+4. For healthcare deployments requiring room-by-room re-enrollment for regulatory
+   reasons, a per-room enrollment protocol runs in each room and the signatures
+   are linked by the opaque `person_id` field (never by raw PII).
+
+---
+
+## 7. Re-Scan Cadence
+
+| Deployment context | Re-scan interval | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| Healthy adult (residential) | 90 days | Anatomy stable; continuous mode refines continuously |
+| Child (growing skeleton) | 30 days | Skeletal proportions change; gait timing changes |
+| Healthcare / clinical | Per clinical event | Post-surgery, post-illness, post-significant weight change |
+| Post-exercise monitoring | 7 days during active programs | Body composition changes affect RF backscatter |
+| Any | On drift alert from longitudinal.rs (ADR-030 Tier 4) | System-initiated; shown to user as "calibration recommended" |
+
+The `longitudinal.rs` module monitors five drift metrics (GaitSymmetry,
+StabilityIndex, BreathingRegularity, MicroTremor, ActivityLevel) using Welford
+statistics over daily observations. When any metric exceeds 2-sigma deviation
+sustained for 3 consecutive days, a `DriftAlert` is emitted. The system
+displays this as "signature drift detected — re-scan recommended," not as a
+health diagnosis.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Output Artifact
+
+On successful completion, the enrollment pipeline produces:
+
+1. `signature-<sha256>.rvf` — the binary soul signature container. Content-addressed.
+   Encrypted with the person's key (see `security.md §5`) before writing to disk.
+
+2. `signature-<sha256>.json` — the JSON-LD sidecar for human inspection and audit.
+   Does not contain raw vector data. Safe to log.
+
+3. A row in the local HNSW index (`ruvector-core::VectorIndex`, `person_track`
+   subindex per ADR-024 §2.4) linking the person_id to the AETHER embedding.
+   This index is used for O(log n) recognition queries.
+
+4. An Ed25519 witness entry per ADR-110, signing
+   `(rvf_sha256 || timestamp_ns || enrolled_by_device_id)`. Stored in the
+   RVF SEG_WITNESS segment AND in the node's local audit log.
+
+The enrollment process does NOT:
+- Transmit raw CSI or raw biometrics to any external server.
+- Publish the soul signature to MQTT or Matter unless explicitly configured with
+  `--privacy-mode disabled` (see `security.md §6`).
+- Store PII (name, email, account linkage) in the `.rvf` file. The `person_id`
+  field is an opaque u64. PII linkage, if any, lives in the application layer
+  and is governed by separate access control.

+# Soul Signature — Security, Privacy, and Threat Model
+
+**Status:** Research Specification (Pre-Implementation)
+**Date:** 2026-05-24
+**Author:** ruv
+
+---
+
+## 1. Scope
+
+This document defines the threat model, mitigations, cryptographic primitive
+choices, privacy architecture, and open security research items for the Soul
+Signature system. It is intended to be reviewed by a security engineer or
+privacy counsel before any production deployment.
+
+The soul signature is a passive biometric system. The security bar is:
+**attacker cost to achieve a false accept must exceed the value of the
+protected resource for the relevant threat model**. The soul signature does
+not claim to be unbreakable. It claims to be hard enough.
+
+---
+
+## 2. What We Explicitly Do NOT Claim
+
+- Not equal to fingerprint scanners on FBI-tier datasets in EER terms. RF
+  biometrics are a younger discipline. No independent benchmark with the soul
+  signature's specific multi-channel fusion exists yet.
+- Not legal evidence. Passive RF biometric identification has no established
+  legal precedent in any jurisdiction.
+- Not a replacement for explicit consent in regulated contexts (healthcare,
+  employment, border control).
+- Not unbreakable under a nation-state adversary with full physical access to
+  the sensing infrastructure.
+- Not validated at scale beyond the constituent ADR baselines. The AETHER
+  channel (ADR-024) targets >80% mAP at 5 subjects; at 100+ subjects the
+  false-accept rate is open research.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Threat Model
+
+### 3.1 Attacker: Passive Eavesdropper on the WiFi Medium
+
+**Capability:** An attacker near the WiFi sensing zone can observe CSI of any
+person who passes through. With enough CSI, the attacker could construct an
+unauthorized soul signature enrollment of an unconsenting bystander.
+
+**Impact:** Unauthorized enrollment → unauthorized recognition → attribution of
+presence to a person who did not consent.
+
+**Mitigation:**
+- Ambient CSI capture does NOT trigger enrollment. Enrollment requires the
+  explicit 60-second structured protocol. Ambient bystander CSI produces
+  `unauthenticated` pose tracks tagged as `person_id: NULL`.
+- Unauthenticated RVF nodes are pruned from the HNSW index after 24 hours.
+- The enrollment protocol requires presence confirmation from at least two
+  sensing nodes simultaneously, making drive-by enrollment geometrically
+  harder to achieve without physical proximity.
+
+**Residual risk:** An attacker who can be physically present in the scanning
+zone for 60 seconds, under the observation of the scanning protocol, can cause
+enrollment of a fake person. This requires physical co-location and is
+equivalent to the threat model for any in-person biometric registration.
+
+### 3.2 Attacker: Active Replay
+
+**Capability:** An attacker records a CSI stream from a legitimate enrollment
+or recognition event and replays it to a sensing node to impersonate the
+enrolled person.
+
+**Impact:** False positive recognition; unauthorized access or presence attribution.
+
+**Mitigation:**
+- Each enrollment is bound to the room's ADR-030 field model eigenstate at
+  enrollment time. The `environment_id` field in every vector node is a
+  SHA-256 of the field model's eigenmode matrix. A replay in a different room
+  produces a different `environment_id` and a dramatically different
+  Subcarrier_Reflection_Profile — the cross-validation between these two
+  signed fields fails.
+- The Ed25519 witness chain (ADR-110) includes a monotonic timestamp
+  (`timestamp_ns`). A replay of an old signature is detected by the timestamp
+  freshness check at recognition time (configurable; default: reject any
+  signature older than 7 days for high-assurance contexts).
+- The ADR-030 field model continuously updates. Even if the replay is in the
+  same room, the field model's eigenstate changes as furniture is moved or
+  temperature shifts the propagation medium; cross-validation degrades over
+  time.
+
+**Residual risk:** Replay within the same room within a short time window
+(< 4 hours, before the field model rotates) by an attacker who has recorded the
+original CSI with high fidelity remains a plausible attack vector. This is not
+defended against by the current architecture. It requires a future ADR for
+challenge-response liveness detection.
+
+### 3.3 Attacker: Phased-Array Vest / RF Body Emulator
+
+**Capability:** An attacker wears a device capable of emitting RF signals that
+mimic another person's backscatter profile, allowing them to be recognized as
+the enrolled person.
+
+**Impact:** The strongest impersonation attack; if successful, bypasses all
+electromagnetic biometric channels simultaneously.
+
+**Mitigation:**
+- The RuvSense `adversarial.rs` module (ADR-030 Tier 7) enforces four
+  physics-based consistency checks:
+  1. Multi-link consistency: a real body perturbs all mesh links passing
+     through its location. A vest emitting signals affects only the targeted
+     link(s). Detection: at least 4 links must show correlated perturbation.
+  2. Field model constraints: the perturbation must lie within the span of
+     the room's eigenmode structure. Artificially injected signals produce
+     perturbations inconsistent with room geometry.
+  3. Temporal continuity: real movement is smooth in embedding space; injected
+     signals can produce discontinuities flagged by the embedding velocity
+     monitor.
+  4. Energy conservation: total perturbation energy across all links must be
+     consistent with the number and geometry of bodies present.
+- The adversarial detector fires `FAIL_ADVERSARIAL_SIGNAL` before the soul
+  signature match is considered.
+
+**Residual risk:** A sophisticated attacker with a calibrated phased-array
+system who also knows the room's eigenmode structure and the enrolled person's
+exact multi-link backscatter pattern could in principle construct a convincing
+emulation. This is a high-capability, high-cost attack. Practical countermeasure:
+require multi-node confirmation (ADR-029 multistatic) which raises the
+geometric complexity of the emulation exponentially with node count.
+
+### 3.4 Attacker: Insider with Broker Access
+
+**Capability:** A privileged operator or compromised service with read access
+to the stored `.rvf` files and the HNSW person_track index.
+
+**Impact:** Exfiltration of biometric signatures; linkage of person_id to PII
+if linkage tables also accessible; replay or cross-site re-enrollment.
+
+**Mitigation:**
+- At-rest encryption: all `.rvf` files are encrypted with ChaCha20-Poly1305
+  using a key derived via Argon2id from a user-provided passphrase (or a FIDO2
+  hardware token binding). The Cognitum Seed appliance NEVER stores the
+  decryption key; it is re-derived from the passphrase on each access.
+- The opaque `person_id` (u64) in the `.rvf` file is not PII. PII linkage, if
+  any, requires access to a separate application-layer database not stored on
+  the sensing appliance.
+- The HNSW index stores only the 128-dim AETHER embedding, not raw CSI or full
+  soul signatures. Exfiltration of the index exposes the embedding but not the
+  full biometric record.
+- Differential privacy (ADR-106 DP-SGD) applies at training time when AETHER
+  is fine-tuned on enrolled-person data, preventing membership inference attacks
+  that could recover training samples from model weights.
+
+**Residual risk:** If the passphrase is weak or the FIDO2 token is compromised,
+the at-rest encryption fails. Key management is a deployment responsibility.
+
+### 3.5 Attacker: Manufacturer / Firmware Supply Chain
+
+**Capability:** A malicious firmware update to the ESP32 node or Cognitum Seed
+appliance could silently exfiltrate soul signatures or CSI streams.
+
+**Impact:** Large-scale passive surveillance; biometric data exfiltration across
+all installed appliances.
+
+**Mitigation:**
+- All firmware releases are signed with Ed25519 (ADR-100 cog packaging) and
+  verified by the appliance before installation. A Dilithium-3 post-quantum
+  co-signature is added in the transition window (ADR-109).
+- The Ed25519 witness chain (ADR-110) signs each CSI frame bundle at the
+  sensor level. A firmware change that alters the witness chain is detectable
+  by downstream audit.
+- Network egress from the Cognitum Seed in `--privacy-mode` is blocked for
+  raw CSI and soul signatures by default. Only MQTT auto-discovery messages
+  (ADR-115) and OTA metadata are permitted outbound.
+- Open-source firmware. The ESP32 firmware and Cognitum Seed Rust crates are
+  open source (this repository). Independent audit is possible.
+
+**Residual risk:** A zero-day exploit in the ESP-IDF WiFi stack or the Rust
+codebase could bypass these controls. This is mitigated by regular security
+audits (run `npx @claude-flow/cli@latest security scan` per CLAUDE.md) but not
+eliminated.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Consent Architecture
+
+### 4.1 The Enrollment-vs-Recognition Distinction
+
+The soul signature system enforces a hard distinction:
+
+| Action | Consent required | Mechanism |
+|---|---|---|
+| Enrollment | Explicit, active | 60-second protocol with operator confirmation; produces signed `.rvf` |
+| Recognition of enrolled person | Implicit (enrollment = consent for recognition) | Continuous mode; HNSW match |
+| Ambient sensing of unenrolled person | No — but data is transient and pruned | Unauthenticated tracks; 24h TTL |
+| Updating stored profile from continuous mode | Implicit (set at enrollment time) | Aggregator auto-refresh; configurable |
+
+The system operator is responsible for obtaining appropriate consent from
+persons before performing enrollment. The technical system enforces that
+enrollment cannot happen accidentally or from drive-by sensing.
+
+### 4.2 Bystander Protection
+
+Persons who pass through a sensing zone without being enrolled are sensed but
+not persistently identified. Their data flow:
+1. Pose tracker produces a track tagged `person_id: NULL`.
+2. AETHER embedding is computed for motion detection and occupancy counting
+   (ADR-115 HA-MIND).
+3. The embedding is written to the `temporal_baseline` HNSW index with a 24-hour
+   TTL and `authenticated: false`.
+4. After 24 hours, the entry is automatically pruned by the `EmbeddingIndex::prune()`
+   method (ADR-024 §2.4).
+5. No `.rvf` file is created. No persistent record exists.
+
+This architecture satisfies the GDPR principle of data minimization (Article 5(1)(c))
+for bystander data: the retention period is bounded, the data is not linked to
+an identity, and the storage is proportionate to the functional purpose
+(occupancy counting).
+
+### 4.3 GDPR / HIPAA Mode
+
+When `--privacy-mode enabled` (from ADR-115 HA-MIND §privacy):
+
+1. Soul signatures are computed and stored locally only. They are NEVER
+   published to MQTT topics, Matter clusters, or any external endpoint.
+2. The local REST API for accessing soul signatures requires a valid bearer
+   token (ADR-028 bearer_auth.rs). No unauthenticated endpoint exposes
+   biometric data.
+3. The JSON-LD sidecar is written to the local encrypted store only. It is not
+   included in MQTT auto-discovery payloads.
+4. The longitudinal drift metrics (ADR-030 Tier 4) are published to MQTT in
+   aggregated form only (e.g., `drift_detected: true`, never raw metric values
+   that could be used for medical inference).
+5. A data deletion endpoint must be implemented: `DELETE /api/v1/persons/{id}`
+   removes the `.rvf` file, the HNSW index entry, the JSON-LD sidecar, and all
+   longitudinal Welford statistics for that person_id.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Cryptographic Primitives
+
+All primitives are chosen from NIST-approved or widely-audited standards.
+
+| Purpose | Primitive | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| Content integrity (per-segment) | CRC32 (IEEE 802.3) | Already implemented in `rvf_container.rs:line 70`. Corruption detection, not security. |
+| Content addressing | SHA-256 | File name derivation; pre-image resistance prevents name collisions |
+| Ed25519 signatures | Ed25519 (RFC 8032) | ADR-110 witness chain; 64-byte signatures; 128-bit security |
+| At-rest encryption | ChaCha20-Poly1305 (RFC 8439) | AEAD; software-friendly; no timing-attack surface like AES-CBC; 256-bit key |
+| Key derivation from passphrase | Argon2id (RFC 9106) | Memory-hard KDF; resistant to GPU/ASIC brute-force; recommended by NIST SP 800-132 draft (2024) |
+| DP-SGD noise | Gaussian N(0, σ²C²I) per ADR-106 | (ε, δ)-DP per Abadi et al. 2016 Moments Accountant |
+| Post-quantum key exchange (future) | Kyber-768 (NIST FIPS 203, 2024) | ADR-108; ~AES-192 security; NIST CNSA 2.0 recommended |
+| Post-quantum signatures (future) | Dilithium-3 (NIST FIPS 204, 2024) | ADR-109; hybrid mode with Ed25519 during transition window |
+
+### 5.1 Argon2id Parameters
+
+Default parameters for soul signature key derivation:
+
+```
+m_cost = 65536 (64 MB memory)
+t_cost = 3     (3 iterations)
+p_cost = 4     (4 parallel lanes)
+output_len = 32 bytes (256-bit key for ChaCha20-Poly1305)
+salt = 16 random bytes stored alongside encrypted blob (NOT the person_id)
+```
+
+These parameters provide ~100ms KDF time on a Pi 5, which is acceptable for
+enrollment (one-time) and recognition (HNSW match precedes decryption, so
+decryption is only triggered after a candidate match).
+
+### 5.2 Forward Secrecy
+
+Old soul signature files are NOT keys for new ones. Compromise of a 90-day-old
+`.rvf` file does not unlock the current profile. The key is derived from the
+user's passphrase each time, not derived from the previous file.
+
+Archived files (kept for audit purposes) are re-encrypted on passphrase rotation
+if the operator elects to do so via the `soul-signature re-encrypt --all` CLI
+command (not yet implemented; specified here for future ADR).
+
+---
+
+## 6. Privacy Mode Integration (ADR-115)
+
+The `--privacy-mode` flag defined in ADR-115 HA-MIND §9 is extended to cover
+soul signature data:
+
+| Privacy mode | MQTT publish | REST API | Local storage | HNSW index |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `disabled` (default for home users) | Aggregated presence/count only | Authenticated bearer required | Encrypted at rest | Local only |
+| `enabled` | Nothing biometric | Authenticated bearer required | Encrypted at rest | Local only |
+| `research` (explicit opt-in) | Full soul signature nodes (anonymized person_id) | Open (for research deployments only) | Encrypted at rest | Exportable |
+
+The `research` mode requires a separate `--research-consent-token` flag and is
+intended for academic data collection under IRB approval. It must never be the
+default.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Open Research and Outstanding Security Work
+
+The following items are known security gaps or open research questions. Each
+warrants a future ADR before production deployment at scale.
+
+**7.1 Challenge-Response Liveness Detection**
+Replay attacks within a short time window (see §3.2 residual risk) are not
+defended against. A future mechanism should issue a random challenge (e.g.,
+"please raise your left hand") and verify the CSI response matches the challenge
+before accepting a recognition. This eliminates replay as a practical attack
+vector. Future ADR: ADR-120 (proposed).
+
+**7.2 False-Accept Rate at Scale (N > 20 subjects)**
+The AETHER baseline (ADR-024) is tested at 5 subjects (>80% mAP). For household
+deployments this is sufficient. For building-scale deployments (50-500 subjects),
+the FAR is open research. Independent benchmarking on a dataset of 20+ subjects
+with the full 7-channel fusion is required before building-scale deployment can
+be recommended. Publication target: co-locate with ADR-027 MERIDIAN evaluation.
+
+**7.3 Side-Channel Leakage from Encrypted RVF Files**
+The file size of an encrypted `.rvf` blob is observable by an attacker with
+filesystem access. File size is a function of the number of nodes present, which
+reveals whether the cardiac channel was captured (high-SNR enrollment vs
+low-SNR enrollment). This is a minor information leak. Mitigation: pad all
+`.rvf` files to a fixed 64 KB boundary. Future ADR: append to ADR-106.
+
+**7.4 Membership Inference in Continuous Mode**
+In continuous mode, the AETHER model is fine-tuned on the enrolled person's
+data over months. An adversary with access to the model weights before and after
+a re-train cycle could infer that a specific enrollment occurred, even without
+the soul signature file, via membership inference (Shokri et al. 2017).
+ADR-106 DP-SGD mitigates this for federation round deltas but not for local
+single-device fine-tuning. Extension of DP-SGD to the local continuous-mode
+update is required. Future ADR: extend ADR-106.
+
+**7.5 Physical Access to Sensing Nodes**
+An attacker with physical access to an ESP32 node can extract the firmware and
+attempt to reverse the Ed25519 signing key (if the key is stored in ESP32
+NVS without protection). ADR-110 uses NVS for key storage. A future ADR should
+mandate secure element storage (e.g., ATECC608A co-processor on the Cognitum
+Seed) for the signing key. Future ADR: ADR-121 (proposed).
+
+**7.6 Federated Learning Linkability**
+When AETHER is retrained via federated learning (ADR-105), the LoRA weight
+deltas carry information about enrolled persons. ADR-106 applies DP-SGD to
+these deltas, but the post-quantum migration path (ADR-108 Kyber-768) is not
+yet integrated with the federation protocol. Until ADR-108 Phase 2 ships, the
+federation link is classically encrypted and vulnerable to harvest-now-decrypt-later
+attacks by quantum-capable adversaries. Assessed risk: low until 2027.
+
+---

+# Soul Signature — Technical Specification
+
+**Status:** Research Specification (Pre-Implementation)
+**Date:** 2026-05-24
+**Author:** ruv
+
+---
+
+## 1. Overview
+
+A Soul Signature is a typed, content-addressed RVF graph encoding seven
+electromagnetic observables extracted from a person in a WiFi-DensePose sensing
+zone. The graph is stored as a single `.rvf` binary blob using the existing RVF
+container format (`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/rvf_container.rs`)
+extended with two new segment types defined below. A human-readable JSON sidecar
+accompanies the blob for inspection and provenance.
+
+The signature is probabilistic, not deterministic. Matching computes a weighted
+cosine similarity across graph dimensions, producing a score in [0, 1] with a
+calibrated false-accept rate (FAR). The FAR at a given threshold is an open
+research question; the AETHER person re-identification baseline (ADR-024 §2.8:
+>80% mAP at 5 subjects) is the lower bound for the primary embedding channel.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Design Principles
+
+### 2.1 Per-Individual
+
+The signature encodes features that are structurally unique to one person at the
+sensing resolution of commodity WiFi hardware. Discriminative dimensions include:
+cardiac timing (R-R interval structure), respiratory mechanics (tidal depth,
+inspiration-to-expiration ratio), skeletal proportions (limb ratios from 17-keypoint
+pose, ADR-079), gait cadence variability, and the RF backscatter profile shaped by
+body mass distribution and geometry.
+
+### 2.2 Passive at Enrollment Time
+
+No explicit action from the subject is required at recognition time after
+enrollment. Recognition fires whenever an enrolled person is detected in a sensing
+zone. Enrollment itself requires a 60-second structured protocol (see
+`scanning-process.md`). This is a deliberate asymmetry: passive recognition +
+active enrollment — which is the same model used by FaceID (passive unlock after
+initial face setup).
+
+The passivity of post-enrollment recognition is a privacy concern addressed in full
+in `security.md` §4.
+
+### 2.3 Multi-Modal
+
+Seven orthogonal channels contribute. Orthogonality matters: if one channel
+degrades (e.g., cardiac is masked by motion), the remaining six carry the match.
+No single channel is necessary for a positive identification above threshold;
+the fused score is a weighted aggregate.
+
+### 2.4 Persistent Across Time
+
+The stored signature is valid over weeks to months for adults with stable anatomy
+and health. Re-scan cadence is prescribed in `scanning-process.md`. The
+`longitudinal.rs` module (ADR-030 Tier 4) provides the drift detection that
+flags when a re-scan is necessary.
+
+### 2.5 Defensible False-Accept Rate
+
+The security model is not "unbreakable." It is "attacker cost exceeds value of
+attack for the threat model in §security." See `security.md` §3.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Signature as a Typed RVF Graph
+
+### 3.1 Container Format
+
+The soul signature reuses the RVF binary container defined in
+`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/rvf_container.rs` (lines 1–660).
+Existing segment types used:
+
+| Segment type | Const | Purpose in soul signature |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SEG_MANIFEST` | `0x05` | Graph metadata: schema version, enroll timestamp, device ID, person_id (opaque u64) |
+| `SEG_VEC` | `0x01` | AETHER 128-dim embedding weights (backbone + projection head) |
+| `SEG_META` | `0x07` | JSON overlay: all non-vector node attributes |
+| `SEG_WITNESS` | `0x0A` | Ed25519 signature over `(content_hash_sha256 || timestamp_ns || enrolled_by_device_id)` |
+| `SEG_EMBED` | `0x0C` | AETHER embedding config + projection head weights (ADR-024 Phase 7) |
+| `SEG_LORA` | `0x0D` | Per-environment LoRA deltas for environment-adapted query |
+
+Two new segment types are proposed for the soul signature extension:
+
+| Segment type | Const | Purpose |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SEG_SOUL_GRAPH` | `0x10` | JSON-serialized graph: node list + edge list + attribute schemas |
+| `SEG_SOUL_INDEX` | `0x11` | Per-node HNSW index serialization for fast graph-level query |
+
+The `SegmentHeader` structure is unchanged. Each segment is 64-byte aligned
+(field `alignment_pad` at offset `0x3C`). CRC32 content hash at offset `0x28`
+covers the payload, providing tamper detection per the existing implementation
+at `rvf_container.rs:line 70`.
+
+### 3.2 Node Types
+
+Each node is a typed struct. Serialized into SEG_META as a JSON object with a
+`node_type` discriminator string. Vector fields (f32 arrays) are co-located in
+a SEG_VEC segment indexed by the node's `vec_segment_id` field.
+
+#### Node: AETHER_Embedding
+
+Primary identity anchor. The contrastive CSI embedding from ADR-024.
+
+```rust
+pub struct AetherEmbeddingNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "AETHER_Embedding"
+    pub vec_segment_id: u64,            // references SEG_VEC containing 128 f32s
+    pub embedding_dim: usize,           // 128
+    pub backbone: String,               // "csi-to-pose-transformer"
+    pub pretrain_method: String,        // "simclr+vicreg"
+    pub alignment_score: f32,           // Lowman alignment metric at enrollment time
+    pub uniformity_score: f32,          // Hypersphere uniformity at enrollment time
+    pub enrollment_frames: u32,         // Number of CSI windows averaged into this node
+    pub environment_id: String,         // SHA-256 of field model eigenstate at enrollment
+    pub confidence: f32,                // HNSW search confidence against person_track index
+}
+```
+
+Stored size: 128 × 4 = 512 bytes in SEG_VEC; JSON metadata ~200 bytes in SEG_META.
+Per ADR-024 §2.8, the person re-identification target is >80% mAP at 5 subjects.
+At 10+ subjects the accuracy is open research; baseline TBD.
+
+#### Node: Cardiac_HR_Profile
+
+Extracted from the ADR-039 vitals pipeline (magic `0xC511_0002`, fields offset 6-11:
+breathing_rate at `u16 LE` BPM×100, heart_rate at `u32 LE` BPM×10000).
+For the soul signature, cardiac extraction uses the ADR-021 bandpass pipeline
+(0.8–2.0 Hz) over a minimum 30-second rest window.
+
+```rust
+pub struct CardiacHRProfileNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Cardiac_HR_Profile"
+    pub baseline_bpm: f32,              // mean HR over enrollment window (40–180 BPM range)
+    pub hrv_sdnn_ms: f32,               // SDNN: std dev of R-R intervals (ms)
+    pub hrv_rmssd_ms: f32,              // RMSSD: root mean square successive differences

+    pub confidence: f32,                // from ADR-021 VitalCoherenceGate PERMIT fraction
+    pub window_seconds: u32,            // duration of the measurement window
+}
+```
+
+WiFi CSI-based HRV extraction is an active research area. The SDNN and RMSSD values
+are discriminative at group level (Zhao et al. 2017, Widar 3.0 2019) but per-person
+uniqueness has not been independently validated at scale. Status: open research.
+
+#### Node: Cardiac_Waveform_Morphology
+
+Wavelet decomposition of the bandpass-filtered cardiac phase signal. Captures the
+shape of the cardiac waveform, not just its rate. More discriminative than HR alone
+but requires higher SNR and longer measurement window.
+
+```rust
+pub struct CardiacWaveformMorphologyNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Cardiac_Waveform_Morphology"
+    pub vec_segment_id: u64,            // references SEG_VEC: 64 f32 wavelet coefficients
+    pub wavelet_family: String,         // "db4" (Daubechies 4, standard for cardiac)
+    pub decomposition_levels: u8,       // 4 levels
+    pub snr_db: f32,                    // measured SNR at enrollment; low-SNR nodes down-weighted
+    pub confidence: f32,
+}
+```
+
+Wavelet coefficient dimension: 64 floats = 256 bytes in SEG_VEC. Waveform
+morphology from CSI is highly environment-dependent; the ADR-030 field model
+subtraction must run before this measurement is taken to isolate body perturbation
+from room standing-wave artifacts.
+
+#### Node: Respiratory_Pattern
+
+Extracted by the ADR-021 BreathingExtractor (0.1–0.5 Hz bandpass) plus the
+ADR-030 persistence layer that accumulates statistics over the enrollment window.
+
+```rust
+pub struct RespiratoryPatternNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Respiratory_Pattern"
+    pub baseline_bpm: f32,              // mean RR (normal adult: 12–20 BPM)
+    pub depth_amplitude_normalized: f32, // tidal depth proxy from CSI variance
+    pub inspiration_expiration_ratio: f32, // I:E ratio (1:1.5 to 1:3 typical)
+    pub hrv_rsa_power: f32,             // respiratory sinus arrhythmia spectral power
+    pub apnea_index: f32,               // events per hour of significant pauses
+    pub waveform_regularity: f32,       // coefficient of variation of breath intervals
+    pub confidence: f32,
+    pub window_seconds: u32,
+}
+```
+
+Note: the `apnea_index` field is a biophysical proxy signal (pause events in
+the signal), not a clinical AHI score. It is provided for signature
+discriminability, not diagnostic use.
+
+#### Node: Gait_Timing
+
+Extracted from the 17-keypoint Kalman pose tracker (`pose_tracker.rs`, ADR-029
+Sect 2.7) during the gait phase of the enrollment protocol. The tracker uses
+ruvector-mincut for person separation and AETHER re-ID for identity continuity.
+
+```rust
+pub struct GaitTimingNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Gait_Timing"
+    pub cadence_steps_per_min: f32,     // steps per minute
+    pub stride_period_variance: f32,    // coefficient of variation of stride period
+    pub double_support_pct: f32,        // fraction of gait cycle in double support
+    pub asymmetry_index: f32,           // |left_stride - right_stride| / mean_stride
+    pub step_width_m: f32,              // lateral distance between foot strikes (proxy)
+    pub velocity_variance: f32,         // gait speed variability
+    pub confidence: f32,
+    pub stride_count: u32,              // number of strides captured during enrollment
+}
+```
+
+Gait biometrics from WiFi CSI are documented in WiGait (Adib et al., SIGCOMM
+2015) and WiDraw (Wang et al., MobiCom 2014). Discrimination across 10+ subjects
+in the same household is an open research question for the WiFi-only modality.
+
+#### Node: Skeletal_Proportions
+
+Derived from the ADR-079 camera + CSI paired keypoint pipeline when available,
+or from CSI-only pose estimation (ADR-023 CsiToPoseTransformer) in camera-free
+deployments. Encodes body geometry as ratios (not absolute values) for scale
+invariance.
+
+```rust
+pub struct SkeletalProportionsNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Skeletal_Proportions"
+    pub torso_to_leg_ratio: f32,        // torso height / leg length
+    pub shoulder_to_hip_ratio: f32,     // shoulder width / hip width
+    pub upper_to_lower_arm_ratio: f32,  // upper arm / forearm
+    pub upper_to_lower_leg_ratio: f32,  // thigh / shin
+    pub head_to_torso_ratio: f32,       // head height / torso height
+    pub arm_span_to_height_ratio: f32,  // Vitruvian ratio (close to 1.0 for most adults)
+    pub confidence: f32,
+    pub keypoint_source: String,        // "camera_paired" | "csi_only" | "fused"
+}
+```
+
+CSI-only skeletal proportion estimation has ~15–25% error on individual ratio
+values (open research; baseline from ADR-023 MPJPE ~91.7 mm at best, per
+Person-in-WiFi 3D, CVPR 2024). Camera-paired values (ADR-079) are substantially
+more accurate. The node degrades gracefully when only CSI is available.
+
+#### Node: Subcarrier_Reflection_Profile
+
+The per-subcarrier amplitude attenuation and phase shift profile measured when
+the subject stands still at three orientations (0°, 90°, 180° rotation). This
+encodes the body's RF backscatter cross-section shape, which is determined by
+body mass distribution, limb geometry, and clothing/material factors.
+
+```rust
+pub struct SubcarrierReflectionProfileNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Subcarrier_Reflection_Profile"
+    pub vec_segment_id: u64,            // SEG_VEC: 56 × 3 × 2 = 336 f32s
+                                        // (56 subcarriers × 3 orientations ×
+                                        //  [amplitude_attenuation, phase_shift])
+    pub n_subcarriers: u8,              // 56 (HT-LTF) or up to 242 (HE-LTF, ADR-110 C6)
+    pub n_orientations: u8,             // 3
+    pub frequency_mhz: u32,             // center frequency at measurement time
+    pub environment_id: String,         // references field model used for subtraction
+    pub confidence: f32,
+}
+```
+
+This node directly exploits the ADR-030 field model: the empty-room baseline
+eigenstate is subtracted before computing the reflection profile, isolating the
+person's contribution. Without ADR-030 field subtraction, the profile is too
+environment-coupled to be transferable across rooms. With MERIDIAN (ADR-027),
+the hardware-normalizer layer maps ESP32-S3 (52 subcarriers HT-LTF) and
+ESP32-C6 (242 subcarriers HE-LTF per ADR-110) into a canonical 56-subcarrier
+representation before this measurement.
+
+Stored: 336 × 4 = 1,344 bytes in SEG_VEC.
+
+#### Node: Body_Field_Coupling
+
+The AETHER attention map cells weighted by the ADR-030 room eigenmode structure.
+Encodes how strongly the person's body couples to each dominant electromagnetic
+mode of the room. This is the most physics-grounded node: it captures the
+person's interaction with the actual electromagnetic geometry of the space.
+
+```rust
+pub struct BodyFieldCouplingNode {
+    pub node_type: &'static str,        // "Body_Field_Coupling"
+    pub vec_segment_id: u64,            // SEG_VEC: n_eigenmodes × n_keypoints f32s
+    pub n_eigenmodes: u8,               // top-K SVD modes from field_model.rs (default K=8)
+    pub n_keypoints: u8,                // 17 (COCO)
+    pub eigenmode_energy_fractions: Vec<f32>, // fraction of total variance per mode
+    pub environment_id: String,         // must match SubcarrierReflectionProfile env
+    pub confidence: f32,
+}
+```
+
+This node is only valid when the same room's field model is available. For
+cross-room recognition, MERIDIAN's environment-disentangled embedding (ADR-027)
+is used instead. The BodyFieldCoupling node provides additional discriminative
+power in single-room deployments and degrades to optional in multi-room contexts.
+
+---
+
+### 3.3 Edge Types
+
+Edges are stored in the SEG_SOUL_GRAPH JSON array. Each edge has a typed
+relationship that constrains how the nodes may be used in matching.
+
+| Edge type | Source node(s) | Target node(s) | Semantics |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `derived_from` | FieldModel_Residual (implicit) | AetherEmbedding | The embedding was computed after field model subtraction |
+| `correlates_with` | Cardiac_HR_Profile | Respiratory_Pattern | Cardiorespiratory coupling at measurement time; correlation coefficient stored as edge weight |
+| `temporally_colocated` | Any pair | Any pair | Both nodes were measured in the same time window; ensures consistency |
+| `temporally_after` | Post-gait node | Pre-gait node | Nodes acquired sequentially during enrollment protocol |
+| `requires_field_model` | SubcarrierReflectionProfile | BodyFieldCoupling | Matching this node requires the same room's ADR-030 field model |
+| `fuses` | AetherEmbedding | SubcarrierReflectionProfile | MERIDIAN-normalized fusion: both mapped to environment-invariant space |
+| `attested_by` | Any leaf node | WitnessChain | Ed25519 witness covers this node's content hash |
+| `derived_by_keypoint_tracker` | GaitTiming | SkeletalProportions | Both extracted from the same pose_tracker.rs output |
+| `environment_normalized` | Any node with `environment_id` | MERIDIAN manifest | MERIDIAN (ADR-027) was applied; signature is cross-room capable |
+
+---
+
+### 3.4 The Aggregator vs. the Stored Profile
+
+Two distinct graph instances exist in the runtime:
+
+**Online Aggregator** — a mutable, in-memory graph that accumulates measurements
+across multiple sensing windows. Nodes are incrementally updated with Welford
+online statistics (`field_model.rs::WelfordStats`). Confidence fields grow toward
+1.0 as more frames accumulate. The aggregator never writes to disk during
+normal operation.
+
+**Stored Profile** — an immutable, content-addressed `.rvf` file on disk. It is
+generated from the aggregator at the end of the enrollment protocol, when all node
+confidence fields exceed their minimum thresholds. The stored profile is the
+canonical soul signature.
+
+```
+Online Aggregator (RAM)                Stored Profile (disk / secure enclave)
++----------------------+               +---------------------------+
+| AETHER_Embedding     |  enrollment   | signature-<sha256>.rvf    |
+| accumulated over     |  completion   | SEG_MANIFEST              |
+| 60-second protocol   +-------------> | SEG_VEC (embedding + refl)|
+| Confidence: 0.0→1.0  |  when all     | SEG_META (all node attrs) |
+|                      |  gates pass   | SEG_EMBED (AETHER config) |
+| Cardiac_HR_Profile   |               | SEG_WITNESS (Ed25519)     |
+| accumulated 30s rest |               | SEG_SOUL_GRAPH (graph)    |
++----------------------+               +---------------------------+
+```
+
+The aggregator pattern ensures that a partial scan (e.g., subject leaves after
+20 seconds) never produces a stored profile — the quality gates prevent premature
+commitment (see `scanning-process.md §5`).
+
+---
+
+### 3.5 Serialization
+
+**Binary container:** RVF blob, per `rvf_container.rs`. All numeric data is
+little-endian, f32 IEEE 754. Segment alignment: 64 bytes. CRC32 (IEEE 802.3
+polynomial) over each segment payload.
+
+**Content addressing:** The file name is:
+```
+signature-<sha256-hex-of-rvf-bytes>.rvf
+```
+SHA-256 is computed over the complete concatenated RVF byte stream after
+`RvfBuilder::build()`. This is a different hash from the per-segment CRC32;
+the CRC32 provides corruption detection within segments, the SHA-256 provides
+content-based addressing and enables deduplication.
+
+**JSON-LD sidecar:** An optional `signature-<sha256>.json` file with the same
+base name. Structure:
+
+```json
+{
+  "@context": "https://ruv.net/soul-signature/v1",
+  "schema_version": "0.1.0",
+  "person_id": "<opaque_u64_hex>",
+  "enrolled_at": "2026-05-24T00:00:00Z",
+  "enrolled_by_device_id": "<mac_or_device_fingerprint>",
+  "rvf_sha256": "<content_hash>",
+  "nodes": [
+    { "node_type": "AETHER_Embedding", "confidence": 0.92, ... },
+    { "node_type": "Cardiac_HR_Profile", "confidence": 0.85, ... },
+    ...
+  ],
+  "edges": [...],
+  "witness": {
+    "algorithm": "Ed25519",
+    "public_key": "<hex>",
+    "signature": "<hex>",
+    "signed_fields": ["rvf_sha256", "enrolled_at", "enrolled_by_device_id"]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The JSON-LD sidecar is human-readable and intended for audit and provenance.
+It does not contain raw biometric vectors; those stay in the RVF blob.
+
+**ISO/IEC 19794-4 alignment:** The soul signature's graph-based vector template
+is conceptually analogous to the ISO/IEC 19794-4 finger image data format
+and ISO/IEC 19794-2 minutiae data. The node/edge schema is not binary-compatible
+with ISO 19794, but the design intent (typed attribute records, quality scores,
+creator provenance) follows the same standard's principles. Future work may
+include a conformance layer if regulatory certification is sought.
+
+---
+
+### 3.6 Matching Algorithm
+
+Given a stored profile `P` and a query embedding `Q` derived from a live sensing
+window, the match score is computed as a weighted sum of per-channel cosine
+similarities:
+
+```
+match_score = sum_i ( w_i * cosine_sim(P.channel_i, Q.channel_i) )
+               / sum_i ( w_i * availability(P.channel_i, Q.channel_i) )
+```
+
+Where `availability` is 1.0 if both nodes are present and 0.0 if either is absent
+(graceful degradation when a channel cannot be measured in the query window).
+
+Default weights (open research; these are design intent, not validated):
+
+| Channel | Weight | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| AETHER_Embedding | 0.35 | Primary identity anchor; best-studied channel |
+| Subcarrier_Reflection_Profile | 0.20 | Body geometry; angle-stable |
+| Cardiac_HR_Profile | 0.15 | Physiologically stable in healthy adults |
+| Gait_Timing | 0.15 | Well-studied biometric; discriminative |
+| Respiratory_Pattern | 0.10 | More variable than cardiac |
+| Skeletal_Proportions | 0.05 | Proxy for body shape; CSI-only is noisy |
+| Body_Field_Coupling | 0.00 (single-room) / 0.10 (cross-room disabled) | Valid only when room field model available |
+| Cardiac_Waveform_Morphology | 0.05 (supplementary) | High SNR requirement |
+
+The threshold for a positive match is a deployment-specific parameter with a
+documented FAR/FRR trade-off. The AETHER channel alone achieves >80% mAP at 5
+subjects (ADR-024 §2.8 target). The fused multi-channel score is expected to
+exceed this; the exact improvement is open research, baseline TBD.
+
+---
+
+### 3.7 Rust Type Sketch
+
+The following sketch shows how the soul signature types would integrate with
+the existing codebase. This is a design sketch, not implemented code.
+
+```rust

+}
+
+pub enum SoulEdgeType {
+    DerivedFrom,
+    CorrelatesWith,
+    TemporallyColocated,
+    TemporallyAfter,

+    /// Check whether all required nodes meet minimum confidence thresholds.
+    pub fn is_complete(&self, policy: &CompletenessPolicy) -> bool;
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+### 3.8 What the Signature Is NOT
+
+- Not a fingerprint of the room (that is the ADR-030 field model, a separate object).
+- Not a waveform recording (the enrolled vectors are statistics and embeddings, not raw CSI).
+- Not invertible to the original CSI stream (the AETHER projection head's information bottleneck prevents reconstruction; see ADR-024 §4 Negative consequences).
+- Not a single scalar. Reducing to one number for threshold comparison is a deployment decision; the underlying object is a 7-channel graph.
+- Not equal to a stored pose. The AETHER embedding captures body dynamics over many windows, not a single body pose at one instant.

+### Per-node mesh sync (ADR-110)
+
+Since firmware **v0.7.0-esp32** + sensing-server iter 23, every
+`sensing_update` whose nodes participate in the [ADR-110](adr/ADR-110-esp32-c6-firmware-extension.md)
+ESP-NOW mesh carries an optional `sync` object per node:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "sensing_update",
+  "nodes": [
+    {
+      "node_id": 9,
+      "rssi_dbm": -38.0,

+        "csi_fps_samples": 47
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Field meanings:
+
+| Field | Type | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|
+| `offset_us` | i64 | Smoothed local-vs-mesh clock offset in microseconds. Negative when this node is behind the leader. §A0.10 on the bench measured ~1.16 s boot delta between two C6 boards. |
+| `is_leader` | bool | True when this node is the elected mesh leader (lowest EUI-64 in the cohort). |
+| `is_valid` | bool | True when this node has heard a fresh leader beacon within the firmware's `VALID_WINDOW_MS = 3 s` freshness gate. |
+| `smoothed` | bool | True once the firmware-side EMA filter has seeded (after ~8 beacons ≈ 0.8 s of follower mode). |
+| `sequence` | u32 | High-water CSI sequence number stamped when this sync packet was emitted. Pair with the per-frame `sequence` field on incoming CSI to interpolate a mesh-aligned timestamp for any frame. |
+| `csi_fps_ema` | f64 | Per-node EMA of the observed CSI frame rate. Bench typical ≈ 10 Hz. |
+| `csi_fps_samples` | u32 | How many inter-frame deltas the EMA has seen. Treat values < 5 as "not yet trustworthy" and fall back to 20 Hz. |
+| `staleness_ms` | u64 (optional) | Milliseconds since the host last received a sync packet from this node ([iter 34](adr/ADR-110-esp32-c6-firmware-extension.md)). Fade UI badges after 5 000 ms; treat ≥ 9 000 ms as the same condition that the firmware's `c6_sync_espnow_is_valid()` reports as `false`. |
+
+**When `sync` is omitted entirely**: the node isn't on the mesh (or
+hasn't heard a peer yet). Non-ESP32 paths — multi-BSSID router scan,
+synthetic-RSSI fallback, simulation — also omit `sync`. Existing
+pre-iter-23 UI clients ignore the new field naturally because they
+don't read it.
+
+**How to render this in a UI**:
+- `is_leader === true` → badge the node "Leader"
+- `is_valid === false` → grey out / "Sync lost"
+- `csi_fps_samples < 5` → label as "Calibrating" until ≥5 frames
+- `|offset_us|` trend → render a jitter histogram to show the §A0.10
+  EMA suppression working live
+
+**How to recover a mesh-aligned timestamp for any CSI frame from this
+node**: take the frame's own `sequence` u32, subtract `sync.sequence`,
+divide by `sync.csi_fps_ema` (or 20.0 if `csi_fps_samples < 5`),
+multiply by 1 000 000 µs — that's the mesh delta from the sync emit
+time. Use it to align multistatic frames from sibling boards.

+## Home Assistant + Matter integration
+
+Full design + operator guide: [`docs/integrations/home-assistant.md`](integrations/home-assistant.md) (ADR-115).
+
+### 30-second Mosquitto-add-on flow
+
+1. Inside Home Assistant, install the **Mosquitto broker** add-on from the Add-on Store and start it.
+2. In HA, **Settings → Devices & Services → Add Integration → MQTT**, point at the broker.
+3. Start the sensing-server with MQTT:
+
+   ```bash
+   docker run --rm --net=host ruvnet/wifi-densepose:0.7.0 \
+       --source esp32 --mqtt --mqtt-host <ha-host-ip>
+   ```
+4. Within ~5 seconds HA auto-creates one **device** per RuView node with 21 entities: 11 raw signals (presence, person count, HR, BR, motion, fall, RSSI, zones, pose, …) plus 10 semantic primitives (someone-sleeping, possible-distress, room-active, elderly-inactivity-anomaly, meeting, bathroom, fall-risk, bed-exit, no-movement, multi-room-transition).
+
+### Privacy mode for healthcare / AAL
+
+```bash
+sensing-server --mqtt --mqtt-host <broker> --mqtt-tls --privacy-mode
+```
+
+`--privacy-mode` strips heart rate, breathing rate, and pose keypoints from MQTT **and** Matter — they never reach the wire. Semantic primitives stay published because they're inferred *states* server-side, not biometric *values*. This is the architectural win that makes ADR-115 healthcare- and enterprise-deployable.
+
+### Matter Bridge (Apple Home / Google Home / Alexa / SmartThings)
+
+```bash
+sensing-server --matter --matter-setup-file /var/run/ruview-matter.txt
+```
+
+Open `/var/run/ruview-matter.txt` for the Matter pairing QR / 11-digit setup code. Scan it from Apple Home / Google Home / your HA Matter integration. RuView appears as a Bridged Device with one occupancy endpoint per node + per zone, plus a momentary switch for fall events.
+
+Detailed entity reference, blueprint catalog, troubleshooting recipe matrix: see [`docs/integrations/home-assistant.md`](integrations/home-assistant.md).
+
+### BFLD — privacy-gated WiFi BFI sensing layer (ADR-118)
+
+The `wifi-densepose-bfld` crate adds an explicit privacy-gating layer on top of the sensing pipeline. It ingests 802.11ac/ax Beamforming Feedback Information (BFI) and emits bounded, classified sensing events that HA / Matter / MQTT consumers can read **without** leaking identity-discriminative data.
+
+Three structural invariants enforced by the type system:
+
+- **I1** — Raw BFI never exits the node (`Sink` marker-trait hierarchy)
+- **I2** — Identity embedding is in-RAM-only (no `Serialize`/`Clone`/`Copy`; `Drop` zeroizes)
+- **I3** — Cross-site identity correlation is cryptographically impossible (per-site BLAKE3-keyed hash + daily epoch rotation)
+
+#### Minimal operator quickstart
+
+Two runnable examples ship with the crate:
+
+```bash
+# In-process consumer: build pipeline, send one frame, print event JSON
+cargo run -p wifi-densepose-bfld --example bfld_minimal
+
+# Worker thread + HA-DISCO: full publish lifecycle (availability + discovery + state + LWT)
+cargo run -p wifi-densepose-bfld --example bfld_handle
+```
+
+#### Production publish lifecycle (HA-DISCO + MQTT)
+
+```rust
+// Bootstrap (once at startup, retain=true messages):
+publish_availability_online(&mut retained_pub, "seed-01")?;
+publish_discovery(&mut retained_pub, "seed-01", PrivacyClass::Anonymous)?;
+
+// Per-frame:
+let handle = BfldPipelineHandle::spawn(pipeline, state_pub);
+handle.send(PipelineInput { inputs, embedding })?;
+```
+
+Six HA entities are auto-created per node (`binary_sensor.*_bfld_presence`, `sensor.*_bfld_motion`/`person_count`/`zone_activity`/`confidence`/`identity_risk`). The `identity_risk` entity is **only present at `PrivacyClass::Anonymous`**; class `Restricted` deployments (care homes, regulated environments) drop it entirely from both discovery and state topics.
+
+#### Three operator HA blueprints
+
+Under `v2/crates/cog-ha-matter/blueprints/bfld/`:
+
+- `presence-lighting.yaml` — `binary_sensor.*_bfld_presence` ⇒ `light.turn_on/off` with configurable hold time
+- `motion-hvac.yaml` — `sensor.*_bfld_motion > threshold` ⇒ `climate.set_temperature` ΔT
+- `identity-risk-anomaly.yaml` — rolling 7-day z-score notification (requires HA Statistics helper)
+
+Import via HA UI: Settings → Automations & Scenes → Blueprints → Import.
+
+#### Privacy class deployment matrix
+
+| Class | Identity fields | Use case |
+|-------|-----------------|----------|
+| `Raw` | full BFI matrix | local-only research (never networked) |
+| `Derived` | downsampled angles + risk score | operator-acknowledged LAN research mode |
+| `Anonymous` (default) | aggregate sensing only + risk score + rotating hash | production HA / Matter deployments |
+| `Restricted` | aggregate sensing only, identity fields stripped | care homes, GDPR/HIPAA-style regulated environments |
+
+The `enable_privacy_mode()` runtime toggle on `BfldPipeline` engages `Restricted` from any baseline without restarting the pipeline — useful for security-incident response.
+
+#### MQTT topic tree
+
+```
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/availability         online / offline
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/presence/state       true / false
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/motion/state         0.000000..1.000000
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/person_count/state   integer
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/confidence/state     0.000000..1.000000
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/zone_activity/state  "<zone_name>"  (if configured)
+ruview/<node_id>/bfld/identity_risk/state  0.000000..1.000000  (class 2 only)
+```
+
+The `rumqttc 0.24` (`use-rustls`) backend ships behind the `mqtt` feature; `RumqttPublisher::connect_with_lwt(node_id, opts, capacity)` pre-configures the Last Will and Testament so the broker auto-publishes `"offline"` on session drop.
+
+Detailed surface: [`v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/README.md`](../v2/crates/wifi-densepose-bfld/README.md), [`docs/research/BFLD/`](research/BFLD/) (11 files, 13,544 words), [ADR-118 through ADR-123](adr/ADR-118-bfld-beamforming-feedback-layer-for-detection.md).
+
+### SENSE-BRIDGE — rvagent MCP server for AI agents (ADR-124)
+
+`@ruvnet/rvagent` is a dual-transport MCP server that makes RuView sensing primitives callable by Claude Code, Cursor, and ruflo swarms without bespoke HTTP client code.
+
+**Install (Claude Code)**:
+
+```bash

+### 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) — v0.6.7 — Node ID: 1
+I (413) c6_ts: init done: channel=15 EUI=<your-EUI64> 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 (v0.6.7 — real LP-core program):**
+
+```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)
+#   → LP-core poll period (default 10 ms)
+#   → LP-core debounce sample count (default 3 consecutive matches)
+idf.py menuconfig
+idf.py build flash
+```
+
+When enabled, the C6 LP RISC-V coprocessor runs a real polling program
+(`firmware/esp32-csi-node/main/lp_core/main.c`) that polls the wake GPIO at
+the configured cadence, debounces N consecutive matching reads, and wakes the
+HP core via `ulp_lp_core_wakeup_main_processor()`. `esp_sleep_get_wakeup_cause()`
+returns `ESP_SLEEP_WAKEUP_ULP`, and `c6_lp_core_motion_count()` /
+`c6_lp_core_poll_count()` expose the LP-side counters for the witness harness.
+Target standby current ~5 µA (datasheet; pending INA measurement).
+
+**Two-board iTWT bench (v0.6.7 — soft-AP HE/TWT, no router required):**
+
+Pair two C6 boards — one acts as the iTWT-capable AP, the other as the STA
+that negotiates and benchmarks the TWT agreement.
+

+
+Board #2 runs the existing `c6_twt_setup_default()` on connect and now
+negotiates a real iTWT agreement against the cooperative AP — the
+`iTWT setup queued: wake_interval=10000 µs` log line should be followed by an
+`iTWT setup event received from AP` instead of the `INVALID_ARG` graceful
+fallback that fired against the bench's 11n-only `ruv.net` AP.
+
+NVS overrides for AP role (namespace `ruview`): `softap_ssid`, `softap_psk`,
+`softap_chan` — provision once and the values survive firmware updates.
+
+**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):

+## Verifying the YAML
+
+Each blueprint validates against the HA blueprint schema
+(https://www.home-assistant.io/docs/blueprint/schema/). To check locally
+without an HA install:
+
+```bash
+# Requires python3 + PyYAML
+for f in examples/ha-blueprints/*.yaml; do
+  python -c "import yaml,sys; yaml.safe_load(open('$f'))" && echo "✓ $f" || echo "✗ $f"
+done
+```
+
+## Privacy-mode compatibility
+
+Five of the eight blueprints work under `--privacy-mode` (no biometrics
+exposed). The other three depend on inferred states that themselves
+derive from biometrics, so they still publish, but the operator should
+audit before deploying in regulated contexts.

+# RuView Lovelace dashboards
+
+Drop-in Lovelace dashboard YAMLs for three common deployment shapes.
+Paste the contents of any file into HA's **Lovelace raw config editor**
+(Settings → Dashboards → ⋮ → Edit dashboard → ⋮ → Raw config editor)
+and edit the `binary_sensor.ruview_<room>_*` entity IDs to match what
+HA auto-discovered from your RuView nodes.
+
+| # | View                              | When to use                            |
+|---|-----------------------------------|----------------------------------------|
+| 1 | [Single-room overview](01-single-room-overview.yaml) | One RuView node, full 21-entity surface |
+| 2 | [Multi-node grid](02-multi-node-grid.yaml)            | 3+ RuView nodes (whole-house deploy)    |
+| 3 | [Healthcare / AAL view](03-healthcare-aal-view.yaml)  | Care-giver dashboard; **privacy-mode-safe** (no biometrics shown) |
+
+## Renaming entities
+
+RuView's MQTT auto-discovery generates entity IDs from the node's MAC
+address by default (`binary_sensor.ruview_aabbccddeeff_presence`).
+To get friendly names like `binary_sensor.ruview_bedroom_presence`,
+either:
+
+1. **Rename in HA** — open the entity, click the settings cog, change
+   the entity ID. HA stores the rename in its own DB; the MQTT
+   discovery topic stays the same.
+2. **Set `node_friendly_name`** in the sensing-server NVS config (per
+   ADR-115 §9.6 maintainer-ACK'd decision: NVS-only, no ADR-039
+   packet change). HA picks the friendly name up at next discovery
+   refresh.
+
+## Privacy-mode compatibility
+
+The third dashboard is designed for healthcare / AAL deployments where
+`--privacy-mode` is set on the sensing-server. Under privacy mode:
+
+- HR / BR / pose entities never reach HA (discovery is suppressed).
+- Semantic primitives (someone_sleeping, possible_distress, etc.)
+  continue to publish because they're inferred *states* server-side,
+  not biometric *values*.
+
+The healthcare dashboard binds only to semantic-primitive entities,
+so it remains useful — and HIPAA / GDPR-cleaner — under privacy mode.

+ * @brief LP-core wake-on-motion hibernation — ADR-110 Phase 5 (full).
+ *
+ * Two operating modes, controlled by CONFIG_C6_LP_CORE_ENABLE:
+ *
+ *   1. ENABLED  — real LP-core RISC-V program polls the wake GPIO at
+ *      LP_TIMER cadence (default 10 ms), debounces N matching samples,
+ *      and triggers an HP wake via `ulp_lp_core_wakeup_main_processor()`.
+ *      HP enters deep sleep with `ESP_SLEEP_WAKEUP_ULP` as the source.
+ *      Targets ~5 µA average current (datasheet figure for LP-core +
+ *      RTC peripherals powered down). The LP binary is built by
+ *      `ulp_embed_binary(...)` in main/CMakeLists.txt from lp_core/main.c.
+ *
+ *   2. DISABLED — falls back to plain deep-sleep + GPIO wake-up
+ *      (`esp_deep_sleep_enable_gpio_wakeup`). No debounce, no
+ *      sub-10 µA floor, but no LP toolchain dependency either.
+ *      This is the path the v0.6.6 firmware shipped with.
+ *
+ * Both paths share `c6_lp_core_arm()` / `c6_lp_core_hibernate_and_wait()`
+ * so call sites in main.c don't change between modes.

+ *   1. mac_to_eui64() — IEEE EUI-64 from MAC-48 (c6_timesync.c)
+ *   2. PPDU-type → ADR-018 byte 18 mapping for both HE-capable and

+ *   cc -std=c99 -Wall -o test_adr110 test_adr110_encoding.c && ./test_adr110
+ *
+ * Or in WSL on this Windows box:
+ *   gcc -std=c99 -Wall -o test_adr110 test_adr110_encoding.c && ./test_adr110
+ *
+ * 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.
