Roll back failed password and advert changes, propagate identity-store results, and report unsaved common and observer settings. Correct observer filter persistence and KISS OTA capability claims. Add fault-injection and packaging regressions.
Read identities up to three times before allowing replacement, publish only complete reads, and require new startup keys to be saved with bounded retries.
Use authoritative replay-file metadata throughout persistence and clock recovery. Validate setperm input before narrowing or mutating roles, and add production-path regression coverage.
Persist Companion TX preferences per contact and channel. Default repeater,
room, and sensor replies to both active TX profiles, with a reply-only force
option for an RX-only secondary profile. Track both reply copies before a
temporary-radio handoff and account for OTA copies under queue backpressure.
Add bridge/crossover filter modes and the third built-in wardriving filter,
plus compact filter CLI syntax, documentation, and CI coverage.
Fix quoted target names being interpreted as slot/key selectors, partial
recovery of invalid saved reply settings, filter suspension during tempradio2,
and unnecessary packet allocation while OTA traffic is throttled.
Validation: 1,477 native tests, 52 Python integration tests, 29 filter UI tests,
and five firmware builds covering ESP32, nRF52, and STM32 passed.
Implement radio2, tempradio2, radioat2 and tempradioat2 across Mesh roles,
with RX-only/RX+TX operation, optional preambles and persistent cross-TX
policy. Keep temporary OTA traffic on its profile by default and maintain
independent retry ownership and backoff for each profile.
Use slow-first receive scanning with 4.8-symbol visits and automatic
preambles rounded up in steps of eight. Preserve pending RX, restore power
saving on exit, and discard work bound to changed or expired profiles.
Restore the infrastructure path.hash.mode setter and report unsupported
extra.sf settings consistently. Add CLI, scheduling, scan and retry tests,
setup documentation, and the V4/XIAO hardware validation results.
Validation: 1,422 native tests, eight KISS tests, 63 final focused profile
tests, 18 checks from the staged source, sanitizer-enabled OTA transfers,
and builds for V4 Mesh roles, Full XIAO Companion and nRF52 T1000-E.
Hardware checks cover reception, cross-TX policy, expiry, reboot and OTA
discovery while receiving main-channel adverts.
Integrate ExpressLRS TX module support and its stacked ESP32 heap changes.
Use the approved Linkflow calibration (17-30 dBm), preserve the PA drive
and output path after radio recovery, and keep LoRa OTA enabled.
Preserve stored ACLs and filters on allocation failure, release owned
client/filter buffers, service heap OTA contexts on Companions, release
self-serving workspaces after TempRadio, and reset staged-resume state
when a context is released. Keep manual staging and active operations
alive. Account for all moved allocations in the runtime RAM gate.
Validation: 1,393 native cases; radio-power, heap-context, ACL persistence,
shared-queue transfer, display/inbox, radio receive, and memory regressions.
Firmware builds passed for Linkflow, Heltec V2 Companion, T-Beam MQTT
repeater, Heltec V4 R8 MQTT repeater, RAK4631 repeater, and Indicator Full.
Physical verification awaits access to the currently offline lab Pi.
Accept the upstream empty-prefix neighbor.remove command after whitespace normalization while preserving invalid-key checks. Cover repeater and room-server removal paths with regression tests.
Fixes#8
Move OTA_HEAP_CONTEXT from two hand-edited envs to a pre-script gated on
build.mcu == "esp32", so every classic ESP32 image gets it and none can drift.
S2/S3/C-series and nRF52 keep the .bss singleton: they have no equivalent
static-DRAM ceiling, so there a guaranteed-present workspace is the better
trade for what is ultimately a recovery path. It has to be a build flag rather
than a header default, because OTA_HEAP_CONTEXT must hold the same value in
every translation unit that sees OtaContext.h - OtaContext.cpp included - and a
header test on CONFIG_IDF_TARGET_ESP32 would depend on include order relative
to sdkconfig.h. The script defers to OTA_SHARED_COMPANION_QUEUE where a Full
Companion recipe already owns the storage.
Fix a gap this exposes in the roles that now use it. Only CLI entry points
acquire the context, so once it was released, a repeater with the temporary
radio profile up would no longer serve or announce its own firmware - LoRa OTA
would look enabled and silently do nothing. ota_service_temp_radio_context()
holds the workspace for exactly the temp-radio window and hands it back
outside it, which is where the saving was coming from anyway. Wired into the
repeater, room server and sensor loops; the Companion keeps its own
acquire-on-host-demand policy, since its context is borrowed from the offline
message queue and must not be taken speculatively.

Reserve board-specific GPIOs, make ESP-NOW channel/format handling configurable, and coordinate WiFi, BLE, NTP, MQTT, and host actions safely.
Add the Indicator message page, exclusive transport selector, dynamic 480/320 rendering, larger transport typography, pairing cleanup, and corresponding tests and documentation.
Add durable TempRadio, ACL, clock, bridge, GPS/I2C, USB logging, and Indicator recovery safeguards together with expanded automation, build/profile contracts, release metadata, and the hardware validation ledger.
Add selectable shared ESP-NOW channels, raw/wrapped bridge compatibility, and bounded fragmentation for maximum-size packets.\n\nGive ESP32 Full profiles WiFi coexistence, stabilize WebConfig and USB terminal lifecycles, and keep disabled bridges stopped during observer updates.\n\nUpdate generated UI, firmware selection, documentation, and regression coverage.
Adding build_date to the WebConfigServer constructor broke every
*_room_server_observer_mqtt target: simple_room_server constructs the portal as
well, and only simple_repeater was updated. Nothing caught it because every
build run to that point had been a repeater target.
Improve companion BLE delivery and idempotent remote CLI retries, make FPF7 persistence atomic with FPF6 migration, verify staged OTA data on resume, and clarify filter policy wildcard and BlackHole semantics.
