- New route: #/nodes/:pubkey/analytics with Chart.js v4 visualizations
- Activity timeline (bar), SNR trend (line), packet type breakdown (doughnut)
- Observer coverage (horizontal bar), hop distribution (bar)
- Uptime heatmap (7x24 CSS grid, GitHub-style)
- Peer interactions table with links to node details
- Stat cards: availability, signal grade, packets/day, relay %, silence
- Time range selector: 24h / 7d / 30d / All
- Server: GET /api/nodes/:pubkey/analytics with full aggregation in SQLite
- Analytics button added to both sidebar and full-screen node views
Built O(1) prefix index on allNodes (replaces O(n) filter per hop).
Cache disambiguation results by hop sequence key — same path only
resolved once. Subpaths endpoint: ~1s for 19K packets (was 30s+).
Replace naive first-match resolution in /api/analytics/subpaths and
/api/analytics/subpath-detail with shared disambiguateHops() function.
Each path is now resolved with forward+backward nearest-neighbor pass
and distance sanity check, matching live map and resolve-hops logic.
After sequential disambiguation, sanity-check each hop: if it's
>200km (~1.8°) from both neighbors, it's almost certainly a 1-byte
prefix collision with a distant node, not an actual hop. Mark as
unreliable (server) or drop from animation (live map).
Fixes packet 19384 bouncing to Seattle — Spiden Repeater shares
prefix 1D with an unknown local node.
Instead of averaging all hops to a center point, walk the path
sequentially — each ambiguous hop picks the candidate closest to
the previously resolved hop. Forward pass seeds from first known
position, backward pass seeds from observer. This matches physical
reality: packets travel hop-by-hop in RF range.
- ADVERT is payload_type 4 not 1
- Frontend sends observer_id (not just observer_name) since some
observers have null name
- Observer position derived from geographic center of nodes it
commonly receives ADVERTs from
- Last hop in path disambiguated by proximity to observer position
- Observer name resolved to lat/lon for geographic context
- Last hop in path sorted by distance to observer (not center)
since it's the node that delivered the packet to the observer
- Packets page now passes observer_name to /api/resolve-hops
- Fixes CroatR1 being picked over Kpa Roof Solar for hop 8A
When the same packet is received multiple times (different hop counts
as it propagates), use the reception with the most hops for display.
Fixes routes showing incomplete paths when the first reception had
fewer hops than later ones.
Applies to both grouped query and individual packet detail endpoint.
When scrubbing to a past time, only nodes that had advertised before
that time appear on the map. Nodes that hadn't been seen yet are
hidden.
- Added 'before' param to /api/nodes (filters first_seen <= before)
- loadNodes(beforeTs) accepts optional timestamp filter
- clearNodeMarkers() removes all markers and data
- vcrReplayFromTs clears and reloads nodes for replay time
- vcrResumeLive reloads all nodes (no filter)
ROOT CAUSE: API query used ORDER BY timestamp DESC with no upper
bound — scrubbing to 3h ago fetched the newest 200 packets (from
now), not packets near the scrub target.
Fix:
- Added 'until' query param to /api/packets (both grouped and flat)
- vcrReplayFromTs fetches a 5-minute window around the scrub target
- Server restart required (old process was stale on port 3000)
Timeline sparkline was only showing packets from the current browser
session (WS buffer). Now fetches timestamps from DB via lightweight
/api/packets/timestamps endpoint, so 6h/12h/24h scopes actually
show historical activity density.
Click any route in Route Patterns to open detail sidebar showing:
- Minimap with nodes and route line (green=origin, red=dest, amber=hops)
- Signal quality (avg SNR/RSSI)
- Activity by hour (UTC) bar chart
- First/last seen timestamps
- Observers that captured this route
- Full parent paths containing this subpath
Split layout with scrollable list + fixed sidebar, responsive on mobile.
Each hop now displays as 'NodeName [ab]' with the hex prefix visible.
Makes prefix collisions obvious — e.g. same prefix resolving to same
name confirms it's a collision, different prefixes confirm real route.
New 'Route Patterns' analytics tab showing most common subpaths in the
mesh, broken down by length (pairs, triples, quads, long chains).
Reveals backbone routes, bottlenecks, and preferred relay chains.
Each subpath shows occurrence count, % of all paths, and frequency bar.
When multiple nodes match a 1-byte hop prefix, use geographic context
(observer's typical nodes + other resolved hops) to pick the closest
match. Shows ⚠ indicator on ambiguous hops with tooltip listing all
candidates. Hover to see which nodes collide on that prefix.
- Autocomplete dropdown searches /api/nodes/search as you type
- Selecting a node filters packets by that node's pubkey
- Fixed duplicate node filter condition in grouped packets query
