A dashboard whose canvas matches the screen came out at 95% of it: the
panel and view routes inset the canvas by a further 16px, on top of the
margin the grid already keeps from its own edges. Two margins, one of
them costing the scale. The padding now applies only to the stacked
phone layout, which has no canvas to shrink.
A slider's tick labels are the third row of a control that has three,
and the first thing a short tile runs out of; `ticks: false` drops them
and keeps the reading and the track. The house's two sliders set it.
The 1024x600 preset is named for what it is rather than for a diagonal
it may not have — the same resolution is sold as a seven-inch panel and
as a ten-inch one.

A cache hit still replays no emissions — those values were the story of an
execution that is not happening — but the run they were recorded in is now
written on the row (`run_node.cached_from`), and the metrics endpoints read the
series back from there. So a reused run answers `run.metrics("train.loss")`
with the same points the run that trained did, rather than looking like a run
that produced no numbers at all. Pointed at rather than copied: a sweep of 500
reusing one frozen node would otherwise duplicate its curve 500 times.
That needed the cross-flow restore fixed first. The cache key has no flow in
it while the stored outputs are named for the flow that produced them, so
`quick.prepare` getting a hit from `train` wrote `train.dataset` into `quick`'s
state and the next node was called without its argument. One rule now covers
both halves: `requalify` reads a name owned by one flow as the same name in
another, applied to the restored outputs, to the node id behind the pointer,
and to the series names on the way out. Reuse across flows is kept.
Also: `@run:<id>.<output>` and a bare `sha256:` digest resolve on every input,
not only artifacts. Chaining a run's json config into the next one from a shell
meant pasting the whole object inline, and the CLI could not even send the
spelling — `_coerce` died in `json.loads` before the engine saw it. Both
spellings are reserved on every input now, `str` included, and `_from_run`
returns whatever the run's result holds rather than only a reference.

Four things from a testing pass.
`fluksio serve` printed its own lines through the root logger, which has no
handler and falls back to `INFO:fluksio.cloud.connector:...` — beside uvicorn's
aligned output it reads like something went wrong. The engine's loggers and
alembic's now use uvicorn's own handler. Named rather than configuring the
root: httpx logs every portal call at INFO and none of that is printed today.
`fluksio enroll` writes its config from another process, so an engine already
serving never learned it had been paired. It now looks for one every few
seconds and dials when it appears. `load()` rather than `exists()`, or a file
that does not parse would be restarted forever.
`fluksio status` says where the installation stands with its portal — never
paired, linked, or paired and unreachable, which is the one worth acting on.
`--seed` and `--timeout` had no help text at all. Both say what they are for
now, and the docs say what a seed is actually for: recorded on the run, part of
its input digest, and passed to an input named `seed` when the flow declares
one, so the number a run is labelled with is the one the code drew from.

`runs --local` already exists for the reason status needs it: the flows and the
history are in this directory, and looking at them should not need a server.
Watching still does — an in-process engine is the command itself, so nothing
could change under it — and says so rather than sitting on a still frame.
Found setting up a sandbox that drives the SDK entirely through --local.

Two halves of the same gap: the CLI could start work but not show you any.
`fluksio status` draws the home screen's top half in a terminal — health and
what is wrong with it, every flow with its state and node count, and the
recent runs and failures under them. `--watch` keeps it there. Rich does the
drawing; it was already installed under fastapi's own CLI, and is named now
because a command depends on it.
`fluksio run` with no parameters at a terminal asks for them, one line per
declared input with its declared value in brackets — so Enter through the lot
is what running the defaults looks like, and an artifact input takes the
`@run:` spelling the engine now resolves. A scripted run is untouched: passing
any parameter, or piping the command, skips the questions, as does --defaults.

Four things the python SDK turned up, each fixed where every client sees it.
A key no port declares is now an error rather than a silent drop, on the
return, the yield and the emit alike — the contract the docs already stated.
The SDK reads literal yields at sync time, so a typo fails before anything
runs, and an emission of one fails the call rather than being logged where
nobody looks.
NaN and infinity are refused at the port. JSON cannot spell either, so one
that travelled came back as a 500, a socket frame that stopped the canvas, or
a metric batch the database dropped whole.
An artifact input takes `@run:<id>.<output>` or a bare digest, resolved on the
engine — so the CLI, the run dialog and a python caller mean the same thing,
and a sweep can pass one at all.
Node timeouts are off by default. The clock measured silence, which a training
node is full of, and remote workers had already stopped enforcing it — their
heartbeat reset it. Now a heartbeat proves the agent rather than the node,
ninety seconds of nothing fails the call either way, and the engine touches
work it is still running so a long node is not redelivered at sixty seconds.

compose.dev.yml mounts the source over the image's own copy so `--reload`
means something in a detached local stack, and mounts the Playwright report
out to the host. Under act_runner the daemon is a sibling of the job rather
than its host: it resolves those paths against its own filesystem, finds
nothing, and mounts empty directories. So the backend reported "Path does not
exist fluksio/main.py" for a file the image plainly ships, and every shard
uploaded nothing — "No files were found with the provided path:
frontend/blob-report".
compose.ci.yml now puts backend's volumes back to what compose.yml declares
and drops Playwright's entirely; the shard copies its report out of the
container before the teardown instead.

A code node in a batch run is now fingerprinted by its source, its raw
settings and the values it reads — an artifact input counting as its digest,
which is what the content addressing was always for. A run that finds the key
restores what the earlier one returned and skips the node, recorded as
`cached`. The run history is the cache: `run_node.outputs` beside the
`cache_key` the schema already had, no second store. On for code nodes, never
for the built-in and connector types that have side effects; off per node with
`@node(cache=False)` and per run with `--no-cache`.
Emissions are not replayed on a hit, so a cached training node returns its
result without redrawing its curve. Recorded in NOTEPAD.md with the two other
deliberate limits.
`fluksio run --local` boots the real app in the command's own process and
drives it through its ASGI interface behind the ordinary client, so a run no
longer needs a `serve` terminal beside it — same data directory, same history,
and the cache carries between the two. It always waits, because the engine it
starts lives exactly as long as the command.
Also: `fluksio sweep --param lr=0.1,0.01` for the product of the lists,
`run --follow` for a run's numbers as they arrive, Ctrl-C cancelling a waited
run rather than abandoning it, coloured statuses on a terminal, and `name`
made optional on the metrics endpoint so a follower can ask for every series.

Four things had drifted. It told you to run `fluksio login` two lines above
saying `serve` signs you in — one of the two had to go, and it is the login.
It ran `fluksio sync` before `fluksio run`, which `run` now does itself. The
pipeline snippet passed `prepare` and `evaluate` to `Flow` without importing
them, so copying it got a NameError on the one example that matters. And the
site link was relative, which resolves to nothing on the page this file exists
to be — pypi.org.
Added one sentence, on installing into the environment you already work in,
because it is the reason a reader's own imports keep working and there is
nowhere else on this page they would learn it.

**The portal link puts itself back up.** It already retried a connection that
raised, but a session that ended *cleanly* — a portal restarting, a proxy
closing an idle socket — returned normally and went straight back round the
loop with no wait at all, so an engine could spin against a portal that was
merely saying goodbye politely. Every ending now reconnects on a delay, and
the delay turns on whether the attempt got as far as attaching: one that stood
up and dropped is a network event and retries at once, one that never stood up
waits longer each time. Jittered, so a portal coming back is not met by every
installation it serves in the same instant. Ping timeouts are named rather
than defaulted, since they are what bounds how long a suspended laptop's dead
socket looks alive, and the keepalive task is awaited so the reason a link
went reaches the log instead of the garbage collector.
**`fluksio enroll <code>`** is the whole command now; hub.fluksio.com is the
default and `--portal` names another. The one command run before anything
works should not need two flags.
**`fluksio run` syncs first.** The reason a run exists is usually the edit
before it, so remembering to sync was remembering to do something the computer
could do — including the worker refresh, which is what makes an edit to your
own package take effect at all. `--no-sync` opts out for a tight loop.
That last one needed discovery fixed: it only ever looked at top-level `*.py`,
so a repository whose code is in a package — the ordinary shape — found
nothing from its own root. It now descends into the packages it holds.

Two things a local install should not have asked for.
`fluksio serve` now signs you in. Logging in to your own machine was a
formality — the password was printed by the same process that would have
checked it, and the database it authenticates against sits in the directory
the token goes into — so `serve` mints the token itself and says where it put
it. `fluksio login` is left for an engine somewhere else.
And an installation is `.fluksio` beside the code, found the way `.git` is,
rather than one `~/.fluksio` for the machine. A repository with its own venv
was already getting its own engine; it now gets its own flows, run history and
token too, instead of three repositories sharing one database and fighting
over one port. `--global` asks for the shared one, `--data-dir` still names
any directory, and when both exist the banner says which you are looking at
and how to reach the other.
The directory ignores itself from within — a `.gitignore` of `*`, the way uv
writes one into `.venv` — because it holds a credential and a database, and
neither belongs in anybody's history. The token is written mode 600. A login
an older version wrote to ~/.config/fluksio is still read, so nothing that
worked stops working.

The gates have never gone green on the new runners. Three separate reasons:
- backend/Dockerfile shipped Python 3.10 while the code imports typing.Self
and datetime.UTC, so the container exited on import and the suite could not
even load its conftest. The image moves to 3.13 and the packages declare
>=3.12, which is the floor the tests actually pass on; ruff's target follows
and rewrites timezone.utc and asyncio.TimeoutError accordingly. Relocking
drops the 3.10 branch, which bumps FastAPI and so regenerates the SDK.
- frontend/README.md had no trailing newline and two dashboard widgets used
arbitrary text-[…] sizes. Both are em-relative on purpose, so they move to
the inline style the neighbouring ramp already uses.
- Every commit left its own run queued: without a concurrency group a runner
that was offline for a while works through a backlog nobody reads. A stack
that fails to come up now prints its logs before the teardown removes it.

poll() still calls a child that has exited but not been reaped alive, so a
node that ended itself with os._exit left its corpse on the idle queue and
the next call died on a broken pipe. Mark it the way the out-of-step paths

Two looks were somebody else's language spoken well, and neither was the
product's. A dashboard nobody has dressed yet should look like the rest
of the app, so there is now a third set that follows the root
DESIGN-GUIDELINES.md to the letter — `--card` surfaces told from the page
by a hairline and a low shadow rather than by colour, every control a
pill, 16px panels, frosted floating chrome, one slate-blue accent spent
on what a person can act on — and it is what `look` means when nothing
says otherwise.
That also turns the exemption the other way round. The dashboard is still
allowed to look unlike the product; it just no longer does so by default.
An existing dashboard, which has never named a look, lands on the design
it had before any of this.
Restraint is the style rather than an omission here: no ripple, no glow,
no lift, and a press answered by the colour changing. The one deliberate
departure is the selector, which holds its choice in `--primary` rather
than the `--accent` the segmented rule asks for — that is a decision
about the widget, not about the look, and a control must not change what
it signals when the drawing changes. All three sets hold it the same way.
Every other README carries the AGPL line; these two did not, and they are the
ones that become pypi.org/project/fluksio and /fluksio-worker — the most
public surface the project has, and the place a copyleft licence is least
useful to have to go looking for. §13 is named outright for the same reason.

The release workflow was already right; what it would have uploaded was not.
`fluksio` had no readme, so its PyPI page would have been blank — the app
repo's own README is a contributor's map of `frontend/` and `docker/`, which
is the wrong front page for `pip install fluksio`. It now has one of its own,
aimed at somebody who landed on the project page. Both distributions gain
authors, urls, keywords and classifiers; `twine check` passes clean on all
four artifacts where it warned on two before.
The workflow publishes `fluksio-worker` first, because `fluksio` depends on it
and the other order leaves a few seconds — the whole of a first release — in
which the dependency cannot be resolved. `--check-url` makes a re-run skip
what is already uploaded rather than failing on it, which matters because a
version on PyPI can never be replaced.
Licence metadata is deliberately still absent: LICENSE is MIT in somebody
else's name, inherited from the template this was scaffolded from, and whose
it should be is not a decision to make in a commit. NOTEPAD carries it.

Stretched end to end, a panel with two dashboards showed a pill nine
tenths empty — which was tolerable while the rail was chrome outside the
canvas and obvious once it moved onto the panel itself. It now hugs its
entries and sits centred in the column it reserves; that column is the
same width either way, so no arrangement moves.
A rail longer than the panel is tall still scrolls, and still draws no
bar: a wall panel is swiped, and there is no room for one.
Five things a wall panel showed that a wall panel should not.
**A tile's body no longer clips.** It scrolled, and a box that scrolls
also cuts whatever crosses its edge — which took the glow off a lit
button at exactly the width where the button filled its tile, and off a
gauge's arc at exactly the height where the dial filled its own. Only
what is written or listed asks for a scroller now; everything else is a
picture drawn to fit, and what overflows is left to the frame, which
clips at the tile's edge where a shadow has already faded out. The
slider's phantom scrollbar goes with it.
**The selector is a selector.** Named for what it does rather than what
it is, and the choice it is holding is held in the dashboard's own
primary — a pill that slides between the options rather than a grey one
that had to be looked for. The stored type is untouched, so no document
changes meaning.
**The arrangement is held off the panel's edges**, by the same distance
it holds between two widgets. The ground is not held off with it: a
background covers the whole panel, and only what is arranged on it has
a margin. No stored panel loses a row to it.
**The rail is drawn on the panel.** It was chrome bolted to the edge of
the screen beside the canvas — in the app's own design rather than the
dashboard's, and on a scaled canvas not even lined up with it. It now
takes a column out of the canvas the way the margin does, scaled with
it and wearing its look. Which cell each widget sits in is unchanged;
only how big a cell is.
Two of these were the same mistake twice: an unlayered rule stating
`position` for everything wearing a class — `.gl-surface` on a rail
placed by a utility, and a blanket lift over every child of a pressable
on a pill placed by `layoutId`. Both now say it one element at a time.
The workflow this serves: make a venv, install what you work with, then `pip
install fluksio` into the same one. Building a second environment beside it
was exactly wrong — the packages the nodes need are already here, and the
Modules screen was asking for them a second time.
`NODE_VENV=auto` (the default) adopts that venv. It declines in the three
cases where adopting would be wrong: `managed` says otherwise, a managed venv
already exists and may hold packages somebody installed on purpose, or the
engine is not running from a venv at all. The images set `managed`, since the
venv in them holds the app and nothing of anybody else's.
An adopted venv is never written to. `uv pip sync` makes a venv hold exactly
the manifest, so pointed at somebody's own environment it uninstalls their
work and the engine with it — `sync()` refuses outright and `reconcile()`
returns before it can be called at startup, which is where that would have
happened first. The Modules screen lists what is installed and drops its
editor; `pip` is how that environment changes.
`fluksio serve` now names the interpreter node code runs on, which is the
thing a data scientist most needs to know at that moment. `fluksio-worker`
already defaulted `--python` to its own interpreter, so a GPU box works the
same way — that was only ever undocumented.

- A tile no longer lifts under the pointer. A finger does not move away
afterwards the way a cursor does, so whatever hover raised stayed
raised until something else was touched: a tile stuck, not answering.
- The ground's blobs wander a closed path on their own clock instead of
sliding back and forth along one line, which read as things moving
rather than as light in a room.
- A bar is one grid now, its rows borrowing its columns, so names of
different lengths no longer start and end their tracks in different
places — two bars that share no baseline cannot be compared, which is
the one thing a stack of them is for. The names read rightward into
their tracks, with room either side.
- A reading on its way somewhere is written to as many decimals as the
value it is heading for. Without that a slider stepping in halves
passed through 22.37460937 on its way to 24: a number nobody asked
for, a different width every frame.
- The brightness column is the same control as the slider widget's,
stood on its end and thicker, and exactly as tall as the disc beside
it. Getting there meant drawing a slider's rail, fill and handle
rather than styling `::-webkit-slider-*`: those need one set of rules
per orientation, each with its own centring quirk, and the handle
landed off its track when the writing mode turned. The native input
stays, laid transparent over the top, so the keyboard, the pointer and
every `aria-` are still its.
The disc was sized against its parents in percentages, and every box
between it and the tile is sized by what is in it — so the chain never
resolved, the brightness slider grew, and the tile scrolled with half a
disc showing. Container units are the tile's own height whatever sits in
between, so the widget now fits exactly.
Two guards behind it, since both are things a picture can fail silently:
nothing on a panel of pictures may overflow its tile, and Touch has to
actually make a control bigger while leaving what it publishes alone.
A dashboard is a wall panel somebody hangs in their own hallway, so it
now wears what they choose: a look, and a palette of their own colours.
Two complete component sets live under `Dashboard/ui/` — `glass`
(translucent panes over a slowly moving ground) and `material` (Material
3 tonal cards) — behind one prop contract. Every control's state,
keyboard and `aria-` live in `ui/core` and are shared, so the two sets
are the same dashboard drawn twice rather than two products: a set only
decides what a control looks like while doing it.
Four settings join the channel, each drivable by a flow like any other:
`look`, `palette`, `background` and `touch`. A palette is an ordered list
of hex colours — background, surface, primary, accent, text, then more
chart colours — pasted from a coolors.co link or typed, written onto the
canvas as the token variables everything already reads. Trailing roles
are derived, so three colours are a whole dashboard, and derived text is
held to AA rather than trusted (`theme.check.ts` measures it). A palette
also decides light or dark, since its first colour is the ground.
Widgets are measured against their own tile with container queries rather
than against the viewport, animate through `motion`, and can be drawn
without their title. The three reworks:
- a bar draws a row per reading, up to eight, each in the dashboard's own
data colours and each able to carry its own scale — replacing readings
nested in one fill, which could only ever share one colour and stop at
three. Documents written the old way are read as rows.
- a chart's range picker moved to a column down its right-hand edge, which
gives the plot back a whole row of a short tile.
- the colour wheel became a disc: hue is the angle and saturation the
distance from the middle, so a colour is one gesture rather than three,
with brightness on a slider beside it.
`index.css` and `lib/motion.ts` are untouched — the dashboard overrides
token *values* on its canvas, never the blocks the two repos share.
Nothing reads it since the engine moved its state to SQLite, but it still
carries the pre-cutover history and an alembic stamp naming a revision that
commit deleted — which reads like a broken migration chain and is not one.

A data scientist keeps their code where it is and decorates it: `@node`
declares a function's ports beside the function, `Flow(name, nodes=[...])`
says which of them make a flow, and `use(fn, wire=..., **settings)` rebinds
one for a single flow. `fluksio sync` uploads the document plus a generated
import shim per node, so the store still holds a complete, runnable,
git-versioned definition while the code it imports stays theirs.
`fluksio login|run|runs` and `flow.submit().wait()` are the client half, over
the run endpoints that already existed. Runs record the user repository's
commit beside the store's, so "what code produced this number" is answerable
on the side that now holds the code.
- `fluksio/sdk/`: ports, decorators, the flow builder and its checks, the shim
generator, an HTTP client and sync. Standard library only at import, so
`from fluksio import node` in a training script pulls in no engine.
- `FlowDef.origin` marks a flow code-defined; `Run.origin_commit` carries the
repository's commit; `POST /modules/refresh` retires the workers without an
install, which every sync calls — a worker holds the imported package in
memory, so an edit to it is invisible until the process goes.
- The canvas shows a generated body read-only and names the repository to edit
instead; a body edited there stops the next sync rather than being discarded.
- The worker's reporter carries inert `Port`, `node`, `use` and `Flow`, since
the shim imports a module whose first line declares them.
- `examples/myresearch` is the worked example, `make sync-example` uploads it.

The engine and the worker speak a version-matched protocol, but compose.dev.yml
mounted only backend/fluksio: a reloaded engine talked to the worker baked into
the image. Adding the request id to that protocol therefore left every python
node failing with "the worker answered request None", because the old worker
echoed no id at all.
