A device reports its board, screen, camera and ports from its own
credential (16 KB, schema 1, replacing the last report), and the flows
are validated against it again. The node panel turns a reported port's
config schema into a form, a reported screen is a canvas preset and a
touch screen's first report turns Touch friendly on. An offline device
node is degraded: amber on the canvas, a warning on Home, never a fault.
- flow/devices.py: DeviceDef in FLOWS_DIR/_devices/<id>.json, committed under
the flow store's write lock, 409 on a stale version; nonces in DEVICES_FILE
outside git; in-memory presence announced as device_status
- api/routes/devices.py: CRUD, pairing with an optional {name, board,
firmware}, a pending list adopted without a code from the LAN only, unpair;
/panels/pair, /panels/pair/{code} and GET /panels/{id} kept as aliases,
PUT /panels/ gone
- _device_may replaces _panel_may, JWT claims unchanged
- panels.json moves into devices once at startup, then .migrated
- MCP list_devices, get_device; search category device
- Devices tab (list, detail with presence, pairing, ordered dashboards,
touch, I/O), PanelsDialog removed, serialised optimistic saves
The portal's copy of the dashboard is the `appshell` target of
backend/Dockerfile (18 MB instead of the 252 MB nginx image); the nginx
frontend Dockerfile, its confs and csp.check.ts are gone, since the app and
the hub both hash the CSP from the index.html they serve.
The runtime image copies the 4 MB git binary alone: the store's init, add,
commit, gc and rev-parse are builtins, and a build-time round trip fails the
build if that ever changes. About 100 MB of perl and helpers less.
The bundled Redis's overcommit warning and FastMCP's lifespan warning no
longer greet every `docker logs`.
The connector now serves /mcp, its OAuth documents and /hooks/ besides
/api/v1/, refuses any dot segment (httpx resolves them, which carried
/api/v1/../../mcp onto the MCP mount), addresses calls to the hub's host,
and bridges served sockets by calling the app with a websocket scope.
A hook without a secret answers the tunnel with the 404 (or 1008) of a
wrong secret. Requests through the hub get the hub's issuer, resource and
consent page in the OAuth metadata and the 401, and the MCP host check
admits the hub while enrolled.
A provider set under Settings (OpenAI-compatible; key encrypted in
flow-data/ai.json) turns on an Assistant panel in the sidebar. Each turn runs
the FastMCP tools in-process as the person chatting, streams the rounds over
SSE and keeps one transcript per user. The panel floats on any screen and
shares the editor's lane: a settings panel keeps the top half, the chat the
bottom. The MCP client is now built once, for the endpoint and the chat.
An MCP access token is a stateless JWT good until it expires, so deleting
the client row revoked nothing already handed out — on the MCP endpoint or
on the REST API, which takes the same token directly. Both doors now look
the client up by the `client_id` the token has always carried, so tokens
already in circulation are held to it too.
A dashboard's `locked` setting stopped the client drawing a control and
nothing else; the server took a publish from a panel showing it anyway. It
now bounds the panel's write scope, resolved live where a flow drives the
flag, exactly as the client resolves it. Reads are untouched — read-only is
not blind — and so is a querying chart's request, which is how that tile
reads rather than something anyone touched.
Follows the portal: the noun is "instance" everywhere the app says it —
UI strings, CLI output, error details, docs and comments. The wire keys
(`instance_id`, `instance_token`) and the hub route this calls move with it.
An existing cloud.json is adopted rather than refused: without the key
alias the dataclass fails to parse, which the caller swallows and reads as
"never enrolled" instead of "reconnect".
`instance_key` on a node type becomes `target_key`. It means the outside
thing a node points at, which is a different sense of the word, and keeping
both would put two meanings of "instance" in one codebase.
A wheel whose top-level module is `app` collides with anything else in a
user's venv, so the package that is about to be published takes the name
it is published under. Only the Python package moves; the repo, the
Docker WORKDIR and the compose project keep theirs.
