## Summary
Replace source-grep virtual scroll tests with behavioral tests that
exercise actual logic. Fixes#405, Fixes#409.
## What changed
### packets.js
- **Extracted `_calcVisibleRange()`** — pure function containing the
binary-search range calculation logic previously inline in
`renderVisibleRows()`. Takes offsets, scroll position, viewport
dimensions, row height, thead offset, and buffer as parameters. Returns
`{ startIdx, endIdx, firstEntry, lastEntry }`.
- `renderVisibleRows()` now calls `_calcVisibleRange()` instead of
inline math — no behavioral change.
- Exported via `_packetsTestAPI` for direct testing.
### test-frontend-helpers.js
- **Removed 8 source-grep tests** that used
`packetsSource.includes(...)` to check strings exist in source code (not
behavior):
- "renderVisibleRows uses cumulative offsets not flat entry count"
- "renderVisibleRows skips DOM rebuild when range unchanged"
- "lazy row generation — HTML built only for visible slice"
- "observer filter Set is hoisted, not recreated per-packet"
- "packets.js display filter checks _children for observer match"
- "packets.js WS filter checks _children for observer match"
- "buildFlatRowHtml has null-safe decoded_json"
- "pathHops null guard in buildFlatRowHtml / detail pane"
- "destroy cleans up virtual scroll state"
- **Added 11 behavioral tests for `_calcVisibleRange()`** loaded from
the actual packets.js via sandbox:
- Top of list (scroll = 0)
- Middle of list (scroll to row 50)
- Bottom of list (scroll past end)
- Empty array (0 entries)
- Single item
- Exact row boundary
- Large dataset (30K items)
- Various row heights (24px instead of 36px)
- Thead offset shifting visible range
- Expanded groups with variable row counts
- Buffer clamped at boundaries
- **Kept all existing behavioral tests**: `cumulativeRowOffsets`,
`getRowCount`, observer filter logic (#537).
## Test count
- Removed: 8 source-grep tests
- Added: 11 behavioral tests
- Net: +3 tests (446 total, 0 failures)
## Why
Source-grep tests (`packetsSource.includes('...')`) are brittle — they
break on refactors even when behavior is preserved, and they pass even
when the tested code is buggy. Behavioral tests exercise real
inputs/outputs and catch actual regressions.

## Summary
Implements M2 of the table sorting spec (#620): sortable nodes list +
neighbor/observer tables.
### Changes
**Shared utility (`public/table-sort.js`)**
- IIFE pattern, no dependencies, no build step
- DOM-reorder sorting (no innerHTML rebuild) — preserves event listeners
- `data-value` attributes for raw sortable values, `data-type` on `<th>`
for type detection
- Built-in comparators: text (`localeCompare`), number, date, dBm
- `aria-sort` attributes, keyboard support (Enter/Space), sort arrows
- localStorage persistence with `storageKey` option
- `onSort` callback for custom re-render triggers
**Nodes list table**
- Wired via `TableSort.init` with `onSort` callback that triggers
`renderRows()`
- Keeps JS-array-level sorting for claimed/favorites pinning (TableSort
can't handle pinned rows)
- Replaces old `sortState`, `toggleSort()`, `sortArrow()` with TableSort
controller
- Test hooks preserved for backward compatibility (fallback state for
non-DOM tests)
**Neighbor table**
- Added `data-sort` and `data-value` attributes to all columns (name,
role, score, count, last_seen, distance)
- Default sort: count descending
- `TableSort.init` called after neighbor data renders
**Observer table (full detail page)**
- Converted from plain `<table>` to sortable table with data attributes
- Sortable columns: observer, region, packets, avg SNR, avg RSSI
- Default sort: packets descending
### Testing
- 18 new unit tests for `table-sort.js` (custom DOM mock, no jsdom
dependency)
- All 445 existing frontend tests pass unchanged
- All packet-filter (62) and aging (29) tests pass
### Note
This branch includes `table-sort.js` since M1 hasn't merged yet. The
utility code is identical to the M1 spec.

## Consolidate CI Pipeline — Build + Publish to GHCR + Deploy Staging
### What
Merges the separate `publish.yml` workflow into `deploy.yml`, creating a
single CI/CD pipeline:
**`go-test → e2e-test → build-and-publish → deploy → publish-badges`**
### Why
- Two workflows doing overlapping builds was wasteful and error-prone
- `publish.yml` had a bug: `BUILD_TIME=$(date ...)` in a `with:` block
never executed (literal string)
- The old build job had duplicate/conflicting `APP_VERSION` assignments
### Changes
- **`build-and-publish` job** replaces old `build` job — builds locally
for staging, then does multi-arch GHCR push (gated to push events only,
PRs skip)
- **Build metadata** computed in a dedicated step, passed via
`GITHUB_OUTPUT` — no more shell expansion bugs
- **`APP_VERSION`** is `v1.2.3` on tag push, `edge` on master push
- **Deploy** now pulls the `edge` image from GHCR and tags for compose
compatibility, with fallback to local build
- **`publish.yml` deleted** — no duplicate workflow
- **Top-level `permissions`** block with `packages:write` for GHCR auth
- **Triggers** now include `tags: ['v*']` for release publishing
### Status
- ✅ Rebased onto master
- ✅ Self-reviewed (all checklist items pass)
- ✅ Ready for merge

## Summary
Implements M1 of the table sorting spec (#620): a shared `TableSort`
utility module and integration with the packets table.
### What's included
**1. `public/table-sort.js` — Shared sort utility (IIFE, no
dependencies)**
- `TableSort.init(tableEl, options)` — attaches click-to-sort on `<th
data-sort-key="...">` elements
- Built-in comparators: text (localeCompare), numeric, date (ISO), dBm
(strips suffix)
- NaN/null values sort last consistently
- Visual: ▲/▼ `<span class="sort-arrow">` appended to active column
header
- Accessibility: `aria-sort="ascending|descending|none"`, keyboard
support (Enter/Space)
- DOM reorder via `appendChild` loop (no innerHTML rebuild)
- `domReorder: false` option for virtual scroll tables (packets)
- `storageKey` option for localStorage persistence
- Custom comparator override per column
- `onSort(column, direction)` callback
- `destroy()` for clean teardown
**2. Packets table integration**
- All columns sortable: region, time, hash, size, HB, type, observer,
path, rpt
- Default sort: time descending (matches existing behavior)
- Uses `domReorder: false` + `onSort` callback to sort the data array,
then re-render via virtual scroll
- Works with both grouped and ungrouped views
- WebSocket updates respect active sort column
- Sort preference persisted in localStorage (`meshcore-packets-sort`)
**3. Tests — 22 unit tests (`test-table-sort.js`)**
- All 4 built-in comparators (text, numeric, date, dBm)
- NaN/null edge cases
- Direction toggle on click
- aria-sort attribute correctness
- Visual indicator (▲/▼) presence and updates
- onSort callback
- domReorder: false behavior
- destroy() cleanup
- Custom comparator override
### Performance
Packets table sorting works at the data array level (single `Array.sort`
call), not DOM level. Virtual scroll then renders only visible rows. No
new DOM nodes are created during sort — it's purely a data reorder +
re-render of the existing visible window. Expected sort time for 30K
packets: ~50-100ms (array sort) + existing virtual scroll render time.
Closes#620 (M1)

## Summary
Implements the `DISABLE_CADDY` environment variable in the Docker
entrypoint, fixing #629.
## Problem
The `DISABLE_CADDY` env var was documented but had no effect — the
entrypoint only handled `DISABLE_MOSQUITTO`.
## Changes
### New supervisord configs
- **`supervisord-go-no-caddy.conf`** — mosquitto + ingestor + server (no
Caddy)
- **`supervisord-go-no-mosquitto-no-caddy.conf`** — ingestor + server
only
### Updated entrypoint (`docker/entrypoint-go.sh`)
Handles all 4 combinations:
| DISABLE_MOSQUITTO | DISABLE_CADDY | Config used |
|---|---|---|
| false | false | `supervisord.conf` (default) |
| true | false | `supervisord-no-mosquitto.conf` |
| false | true | `supervisord-no-caddy.conf` |
| true | true | `supervisord-no-mosquitto-no-caddy.conf` |
### Dockerfiles
Added COPY lines for the new configs in both `Dockerfile` and
`Dockerfile.go`.
## Testing
```bash
# Verify correct config selection
docker run -e DISABLE_CADDY=true corescope
# Should log: [config] Caddy reverse proxy disabled (DISABLE_CADDY=true)
docker run -e DISABLE_CADDY=true -e DISABLE_MOSQUITTO=true corescope
# Should log both disabled messages
```

## Summary
Fixes critical and major mobile accessibility items from #630, focused
on small phone viewports (320px–375px).
### Critical fixes
1. **Touch targets ≥ 44px** — All interactive elements (filter buttons,
tab buttons, search inputs, nav buttons, region pills, dropdowns) get
`min-height: 44px; min-width: 44px` via `@media (pointer: coarse)` —
desktop/mouse users are unaffected.
2. **ARIA live regions** — Added `aria-live="polite"` to: packet list
(`#pktLeft`), node list (`#nodesLeft`), analytics content
(`#analyticsContent`), live feed (`#liveFeed` with `role="log"`). Screen
readers now announce dynamic content updates.
3. **Color-only status indicators** — Status dots in live view marked
`aria-hidden="true"` (text labels like "Online"/"Degraded"/"Offline"
already present alongside).
4. **Detail panel on mobile** — Side panel (`panel-right`) renders as a
full-screen fixed overlay on ≤640px. Close button (✕) added to nodes
detail panel. Escape key closes both nodes and packets detail panels.
### Major fixes
5. **Analytics tabs overflow** — Tabs switch to `flex-wrap: nowrap;
overflow-x: auto` on ≤640px, preventing overflow on 320px screens.
6. **Table horizontal scroll** — Added `.table-scroll-wrap` class and
`min-width: 480px` on `.data-table` at ≤640px for horizontal scrolling
when columns don't fit.
7. **SPA focus management** — On every page navigation, focus moves to
first heading (`h1`/`h2`/`h3`) or falls back to `#app`. Uses
`requestAnimationFrame` for correct DOM timing.
### Bonus
- Analytics tabs get `role="tablist"` + `aria-label` for screen reader
semantics.
### Known follow-ups (not blocking)
- Individual tab buttons should get `role="tab"` + `aria-selected` +
`aria-controls` for complete ARIA tab pattern.
- `sr-status-label` and `table-scroll-wrap` CSS classes are defined but
not yet used in JS — ready for future use when status text labels and
table wrappers are wired up.

## Summary
Auto-generated OpenAPI 3.0.3 spec endpoint (`/api/spec`) and Swagger UI
(`/api/docs`) for the CoreScope API.
## What
- **`cmd/server/openapi.go`** — Route metadata map
(`routeDescriptions()`) + spec builder that walks the mux router to
generate a complete OpenAPI 3.0.3 spec at runtime. Includes:
- All 47 API endpoints grouped by tag (admin, analytics, channels,
config, nodes, observers, packets)
- Query parameter documentation for key endpoints (packets, nodes,
search, resolve-hops)
- Path parameter extraction from mux `{name}` patterns
- `ApiKeyAuth` security scheme for API-key-protected endpoints
- Swagger UI served as a self-contained HTML page using unpkg CDN
- **`cmd/server/openapi_test.go`** — Tests for spec endpoint (validates
JSON structure, required fields, path count, security schemes,
self-exclusion of `/api/spec` and `/api/docs`), Swagger UI endpoint, and
`extractPathParams` helper.
- **`cmd/server/routes.go`** — Stores router reference on `Server`
struct for spec generation; registers `/api/spec` and `/api/docs`
routes.
## Design Decisions
- **Runtime spec generation** vs static YAML: The spec walks the actual
router, so it can never drift from registered routes. Route metadata
(summaries, descriptions, tags, auth flags) is maintained in a parallel
map — the test enforces minimum path count to catch drift.
- **No external dependencies**: Uses only stdlib + existing gorilla/mux.
Swagger UI loaded from unpkg CDN (no vendored assets).
- **Security tagging**: Auth-protected endpoints (those behind
`requireAPIKey` middleware) are tagged with `security: [{ApiKeyAuth:
[]}]` in the spec, matching the actual middleware configuration.
## Testing
- `go test -run TestOpenAPI` — validates spec structure, field presence,
path count ≥ 20, security schemes
- `go test -run TestSwagger` — validates HTML response with swagger-ui
references
- `go test -run TestExtractPathParams` — unit tests for path parameter
extraction

## Zero-Config Defaults + Deployment Docs
Make CoreScope start with zero configuration — no `config.json`
required. The ingestor falls back to sensible defaults (local MQTT
broker, standard topics, default DB path) when no config file exists.
### What changed
**`cmd/ingestor/config.go`** — `LoadConfig` no longer errors on missing
config file. Instead it logs a message and uses defaults. If no MQTT
sources are configured (from file or env), defaults to
`mqtt://localhost:1883` with `meshcore/#` topic.
**`cmd/ingestor/main.go`** — Removed redundant "no MQTT sources" fatal
(now handled in config layer). Improved the "no connections established"
fatal with actionable hints.
**`README.md`** — Replaced "Docker (Recommended)" section with a
one-command quickstart using the pre-built image. No build step, no
config file, just `docker run`.
**`docs/deployment.md`** — New comprehensive deployment guide covering
Docker, Compose, config reference, MQTT setup, TLS/HTTPS, monitoring,
backup, and troubleshooting.
### Zero-config flow
```
docker run -d -p 80:80 -v corescope-data:/app/data ghcr.io/kpa-clawbot/corescope:latest
```
1. No config.json found → defaults used, log message printed
2. No MQTT sources → defaults to `mqtt://localhost:1883`
3. Internal Mosquitto broker already running in container → connection
succeeds
4. Dashboard shows empty, ready for packets
### Review fixes (commit 13b89bb)
- Removed `DISABLE_CADDY` references from all docs — this env var was
never implemented in the entrypoint
- Fixed `/api/stats` example in deployment guide — showed nonexistent
fields (`mqttConnected`, `uptimeSeconds`, `activeNodes`)
- Improved MQTT connection failure message with actionable
troubleshooting hints

## Summary
Mobile UX fixes for the channel color picker (addresses #619).
## Changes
### Commit 1: Mobile UX improvements
- **Bottom-sheet pattern on mobile**: Color picker renders as a fixed
bottom sheet on touch devices (`@media (pointer: coarse)`) with
`env(safe-area-inset-bottom)` for notched phones
- **40px touch targets**: Swatches enlarged from default to 40×40px on
mobile
- **Native color picker hidden on touch**: `<input type="color">` is
hidden on mobile — preset swatches only
- **Scroll lock**: `document.body.style.overflow = 'hidden'` while
popover is open, restored on close
- **CSS context menu suppression**: `-webkit-touch-callout: none` and
`user-select: none` on `.live-feed-item`
- **Long-press with `passive: true`**: touchstart listener is passive to
avoid scroll jank
### Commit 2: Remove preventDefault on touchstart
- Removed `e.preventDefault()` from the touchstart handler — it was
blocking scroll initiation on feed items
- Context menu suppression handled entirely via CSS (see above)
## Desktop behavior
Unchanged. All mobile-specific styles scoped under `@media (pointer:
coarse)`. Desktop positioning logic unchanged.
## Review Status
- ✅ Rebased onto master (no conflicts)
- ✅ Self-review complete — all checklist items verified
- ✅ Tufte analysis posted as comment

## Summary
Addresses user feedback on #600 — two improvements to RF Health detail
panel charts:
### 1. Auto-scale airtime Y-axis
Previously fixed 0-100% which made low-activity nodes unreadable (e.g.
0.1% TX barely visible). Now auto-scales to the actual data range with
20% headroom (minimum 1%), matching how the noise floor chart already
works.
### 2. Hover tooltips on all chart data points
Invisible SVG `<circle>` elements with native `<title>` tooltips on
every data point across all 4 charts:
- **Noise floor**: `NF: -112.3 dBm` + UTC timestamp
- **Airtime**: `TX: 2.1%` or `RX: 8.3%` + UTC timestamp
- **Error rate**: `Err: 0.05%` + UTC timestamp
- **Battery**: `Batt: 3.85V` + UTC timestamp
Uses native browser SVG tooltips — zero dependencies, accessible, no JS
event handlers.
### Design rationale (Tufte)
- Auto-scaling increases data-ink ratio by eliminating wasted vertical
space
- Tooltips provide detail-on-demand without cluttering the chart with
labels on every point
### Spec update
Added M2 feedback improvements section to
`docs/specs/rf-health-dashboard.md`.

## Summary
Documents the lock ordering for all five mutexes in `PacketStore`
(`store.go`) to prevent future deadlocks.
## What changed
Added a comment block above the `PacketStore` struct documenting:
- All 5 mutexes (`mu`, `cacheMu`, `channelsCacheMu`, `groupedCacheMu`,
`regionObsMu`)
- What each mutex guards
- The required acquisition order (numbered 1–5)
- The nesting relationships that exist today (`cacheMu →
channelsCacheMu` in `invalidateCachesFor` and `rebuildAnalyticsCaches`)
- Confirmation that no reverse ordering exists (no deadlock risk)
## Verification
- Grepped all lock acquisition sites to confirm no reverse nesting
exists
- `go build ./...` passes — documentation-only change
Fixes#413

## Summary
Replaces hardcoded `VSCROLL_ROW_HEIGHT = 36` and `theadHeight = 40` in
the virtual scroll logic with dynamic DOM measurement, so the values
stay correct if CSS changes.
## Changes
- `VSCROLL_ROW_HEIGHT`: measured once from the first rendered data row's
`offsetHeight` after the initial full rebuild. Falls back to 36px until
measurement occurs.
- `theadHeight`: measured from the actual `<thead>` element's
`offsetHeight` on every `renderVisibleRows` call. Falls back to 40px if
no thead is found.
- Both variables are now `let` instead of `const` to allow runtime
updates.
## Performance
No performance impact — both measurements are single `offsetHeight`
reads (no reflow triggered since the DOM was just written). Row height
measurement runs only once (guarded by `_vscrollRowHeightMeasured`
flag). Thead measurement is a single property read per scroll event.
Fixes#407

## Summary
Fixes#420 — wires `cacheTTL` config values to server-side cache
durations that were previously hardcoded.
## Problem
`collisionCacheTTL` was hardcoded at 60s in `store.go`. The config has
`cacheTTL.analyticsHashSizes: 3600` (1 hour) but it was never read — the
`/api/config/cache` endpoint just passed the raw map to the client
without applying values server-side.
## Changes
- **`store.go`**: Add `cacheTTLSec()` helper to safely extract duration
values from the `cacheTTL` config map. `NewPacketStore` now accepts an
optional `cacheTTL` map (variadic, backward-compatible) and wires:
- `cacheTTL.analyticsHashSizes` → `collisionCacheTTL`
- `cacheTTL.analyticsRF` → `rfCacheTTL`
- **Default changed**: `collisionCacheTTL` default raised from 60s →
3600s (1 hour). Hash collision computation is expensive and data changes
rarely — 60s was causing unnecessary recomputation.
- **`main.go`**: Pass `cfg.CacheTTL` to `NewPacketStore`.
- **Tests**: Added `TestCacheTTLFromConfig` and `TestCacheTTLDefaults`
in eviction_test.go. Updated existing `TestHashCollisionsCacheTTL` for
the new default.
## Audit of other cacheTTL values
The remaining `cacheTTL` keys (`stats`, `nodeDetail`, `nodeHealth`,
`nodeList`, `bulkHealth`, `networkStatus`, `observers`, `channels`,
`channelMessages`, `analyticsTopology`, `analyticsChannels`,
`analyticsSubpaths`, `analyticsSubpathDetail`, `nodeAnalytics`,
`nodeSearch`, `invalidationDebounce`) are **client-side only** — served
via `/api/config/cache` and consumed by the frontend. They don't have
corresponding server-side caches to wire to. The only server-side caches
(`rfCache`, `topoCache`, `hashCache`, `chanCache`, `distCache`,
`subpathCache`, `collisionCache`) all use either `rfCacheTTL` or
`collisionCacheTTL`, both now configurable.
## Complexity
O(1) config lookup at store init time. No hot-path impact.

Closes#616
## What
Adds a **Distance** column to the neighbor table on the node detail
page.
When both the viewed node and a neighbor have GPS coordinates recorded,
the table shows the haversine distance between them (e.g. `3.2 km`).
When either node lacks GPS, the cell shows `—`.
## Changes
**Backend** (`cmd/server/neighbor_api.go`):
- Added `distance_km *float64` (omitempty) to `NeighborEntry`
- In `handleNodeNeighbors`: look up source node coords from `nodeMap`,
then for each resolved (non-ambiguous) neighbor with GPS, compute
`haversineKm` and set the field
**Frontend** (`public/nodes.js`):
- Added `Distance` column header between Last Seen and Conf
- Cell renders `X.X km` or `—` (muted) when unavailable
**Tests** (`cmd/server/neighbor_api_test.go`):
- `TestNeighborAPI_DistanceKm_WithGPS`: two nodes with real coords →
`distance_km` is positive
- `TestNeighborAPI_DistanceKm_NoGPS`: two nodes at 0,0 → `distance_km`
is nil
## Verification
Test at **https://staging.on8ar.eu** — navigate to any node detail page
and scroll to the Neighbors section. Nodes with GPS coordinates show a
distance; those without show `—`.
## Summary
Adds two config knobs for controlling backfill scope and neighbor graph
data retention, plus removes the dead synchronous backfill function.
## Changes
### Config knobs
#### `resolvedPath.backfillHours` (default: 24)
Controls how far back (in hours) the async backfill scans for
observations with NULL `resolved_path`. Transmissions with `first_seen`
older than this window are skipped, reducing startup time for instances
with large historical datasets.
#### `neighborGraph.maxAgeDays` (default: 30)
Controls the maximum age of `neighbor_edges` entries. Edges with
`last_seen` older than this are pruned from both SQLite and the
in-memory graph. Pruning runs on startup (after a 4-minute stagger) and
every 24 hours thereafter.
### Dead code removal
- Removed the synchronous `backfillResolvedPaths` function that was
replaced by the async version.
### Implementation details
- `backfillResolvedPathsAsync` now accepts a `backfillHours` parameter
and filters by `tx.FirstSeen`
- `NeighborGraph.PruneOlderThan(cutoff)` removes stale edges from the
in-memory graph
- `PruneNeighborEdges(conn, graph, maxAgeDays)` prunes both DB and
in-memory graph
- Periodic pruning ticker follows the same pattern as metrics pruning
(24h interval, staggered start)
- Graceful shutdown stops the edge prune ticker
### Config example
Both knobs added to `config.example.json` with `_comment` fields.
## Tests
- Config default/override tests for both knobs
- `TestGraphPruneOlderThan` — in-memory edge pruning
- `TestPruneNeighborEdgesDB` — SQLite + in-memory pruning together
- `TestBackfillRespectsHourWindow` — verifies old transmissions are
excluded by backfill window

## Summary
Implements M2 of channel color highlighting (#271): a right-click
context menu popover for quick-assigning colors to hash channels.
Builds on M1 (PR #607) which provides `ChannelColors.set/get/remove`
storage primitives.
## What's new
### Color picker popover (`channel-color-picker.js`)
- **Right-click** any GRP_TXT/CHAN row in the **live feed** or **packets
table** → opens a color picker popover at the click point
- **Long-press** (500ms) on mobile triggers the same popover
- **10 preset swatches** — maximally distinct, ColorBrewer-inspired
palette
- **Custom hex** — native `<input type="color">` with Apply button
- **Clear button** — removes color assignment (hidden when no color
assigned)
- **Popover positioning** — auto-adjusts to avoid viewport overflow
- **Dismiss** — click outside or Escape key
### Immediate feedback
- Assigning a color instantly re-styles all visible live feed items with
that channel
- Packets table triggers `renderVisibleRows()` via exposed
`window._packetsRenderVisible`
### Wiring
- Feed items store `_ccPkt` packet reference for channel extraction
- Picker installed via `registerPage` init hooks in both `live.js` and
`packets.js`
- Single shared popover DOM element, repositioned on each open
### Styling
- Dark card with border, matching existing CoreScope dropdown patterns
- CSS in `style.css` under `.cc-picker-*` classes
- Uses CSS variables (`--surface-1`, `--border`, `--accent`, etc.) for
theme compatibility
## Files changed
| File | Change |
|------|--------|
| `public/channel-color-picker.js` | New — popover component (IIFE, no
dependencies except `ChannelColors`) |
| `public/index.html` | Script tag for picker |
| `public/live.js` | Store `_ccPkt` on feed items, install picker on
init |
| `public/packets.js` | Install picker on init, expose
`_packetsRenderVisible` |
| `public/style.css` | Popover CSS |
| `test-channel-colors.js` | 2 new tests for picker loading and graceful
degradation |
## Testing
- All 21 channel-colors tests pass (19 M1 + 2 M2)
- All 445 frontend-helpers tests pass
- All 62 packet-filter tests pass
## Performance
No hot-path impact. The popover is a single shared DOM element created
lazily on first use. Context menu handlers use event delegation on the
feed/table containers (one listener each, not per-row). The
`refreshVisibleRows` function only iterates currently-visible DOM
elements.
Closes milestone M2 of #271.

## Summary
Implements M1 of the [channel color highlighting
spec](docs/specs/channel-color-highlighting.md) for issue #271.
Allows users to assign custom highlight colors to specific hash
channels. When a `GRP_TXT` packet arrives with an assigned channel
color, the feed row and packets table row get:
- **4px colored left border** in the assigned color
- **Subtle background tint** (color at 10% opacity)
## What's included
### `public/channel-colors.js` — Storage model
- `ChannelColors.get(channel)` → hex color or null
- `ChannelColors.set(channel, color)` — assign a color
- `ChannelColors.remove(channel)` — clear assignment
- `ChannelColors.getAll()` → all assignments
- `ChannelColors.getRowStyle(typeName, channel)` → inline CSS string for
row highlighting
- Uses `localStorage` key `live-channel-colors`
- Gracefully handles corrupt/missing localStorage data
### Feed row highlighting (`public/live.js`)
- Both `addFeedItem` (live WS) and `addFeedItemDOM` (replay/DB load)
apply channel color styles
- Reads `decoded.payload.channelName` from the packet
### Packets table highlighting (`public/packets.js`)
- `buildFlatRowHtml` and `buildGroupRowHtml` apply channel color styles
to `<tr>` elements
- Reads channel from `getParsedDecoded(p).channel`
### Tests (`test-channel-colors.js`)
- 16 unit tests covering storage CRUD, edge cases (null, empty, corrupt
data), and style generation
- Tests verify only GRP_TXT/CHAN types get coloring, other types are
unaffected
## Design decisions
- **Only GRP_TXT/CHAN packets** — other types retain default
`TYPE_COLORS` styling
- **Channel color takes priority** over default type colors for row
highlighting
- **No UI for assigning colors yet** — that's M2 (right-click context
menu + color picker)
- **Storage key abstracted** behind functions to ease future migration
if customizer rework (#288) lands
- **10% opacity tint** (`#hexcolor` + `1a` suffix) ensures readability
in both dark/light modes
## Performance
- `getRowStyle()` is O(1) — single localStorage read + JSON parse per
call
- No per-packet API calls; all data is client-side

## Summary
Adds collapsible/minimizable UI panels on the live map page so overlay
panels don't block map content on medium-sized screens.
Fixes#279
## Changes
### Collapsible Legend Panel (all screen sizes)
- The legend toggle button (🎨/✕) is now visible at **all** screen sizes,
not just mobile
- Clicking it smoothly collapses/expands the legend with a CSS
transition
- Collapsed state persists in `localStorage` (`live-legend-hidden`)
- Feed panel already had hide/show with localStorage — no changes needed
there
### Medium Breakpoint (768px)
New `@media (max-width: 768px)` rules for tablet/small laptop screens:
- Feed panel: 360px → 280px wide, max-height 340px → 200px
- Node detail panel: 320px → 260px wide
- Legend: smaller font (10px) and tighter padding
- Header: reduced gap and padding
- Stats/toggles: smaller font sizes
### What's NOT changed
- Mobile (≤640px): existing behavior preserved (feed/legend hidden
entirely)
- Desktop (>768px): no changes — panels render at full size as before
## Testing
- `test-packet-filter.js`: 62 passed
- `test-aging.js`: 29 passed
- `test-frontend-helpers.js`: 445 passed

The button click handler used document.getElementById() which fails on
/packet/[ID] pages because renderDetail() runs before the container is
appended to the DOM. Changed to panel.querySelector() which searches
within the detached element tree.
Fixes#601
## M2: Airtime + Channel Quality + Battery Charts
Implements M2 of #600 — server-side delta computation and three new
charts in the RF Health detail view.
### Backend Changes
**Delta computation** for cumulative counters (`tx_air_secs`,
`rx_air_secs`, `recv_errors`):
- Computes per-interval deltas between consecutive samples
- **Reboot handling:** detects counter reset (current < previous), skips
that delta, records reboot timestamp
- **Gap handling:** if time between samples > 2× interval, inserts null
(no interpolation)
- Returns `tx_airtime_pct` and `rx_airtime_pct` as percentages
(delta_secs / interval_secs × 100)
- Returns `recv_error_rate` as delta_errors / (delta_recv +
delta_errors) × 100
**`resolution` query param** on `/api/observers/{id}/metrics`:
- `5m` (default) — raw samples
- `1h` — hourly aggregates (GROUP BY hour with AVG/MAX)
- `1d` — daily aggregates
**Schema additions:**
- `packets_sent` and `packets_recv` columns added to `observer_metrics`
(migration)
- Ingestor parses these fields from MQTT stats messages
**API response** now includes:
- `tx_airtime_pct`, `rx_airtime_pct`, `recv_error_rate` (computed
deltas)
- `reboots` array with timestamps of detected reboots
- `is_reboot_sample` flag on affected samples
### Frontend Changes
Three new charts in the RF Health detail view, stacked vertically below
noise floor:
1. **Airtime chart** — TX (red) + RX (blue) as separate SVG lines,
Y-axis 0-100%, direct labels at endpoints
2. **Error Rate chart** — `recv_error_rate` line, shown only when data
exists
3. **Battery chart** — voltage line with 3.3V low reference, shown only
when battery_mv > 0
All charts:
- Share X-axis and time range (aligned vertically)
- Reboot markers as vertical hairlines spanning all charts
- Direct labels on data (no legends)
- Resolution auto-selected: `1h` for 7d/30d ranges
- Charts hidden when no data exists
### Tests
- `TestComputeDeltas`: normal deltas, reboot detection, gap detection
- `TestGetObserverMetricsResolution`: 5m/1h/1d downsampling verification
- Updated `TestGetObserverMetrics` for new API signature

- Change RF Health detail view from bottom-of-page to a right-sliding side panel
- Grid stays visible and stable when detail is open (no layout shift)
- Click another observer updates panel in place; close button (×) dismisses
- On mobile (<640px): panel stacks below grid at full width
- Filter out observers with insufficient data (<2 sparkline points) from grid entirely
- Follows the same split-layout pattern used by the nodes page
## RF Health Dashboard — M1: Observer Metrics Storage, API & Small
Multiples Grid
Implements M1 of #600.
### What this does
Adds a complete RF health monitoring pipeline: MQTT stats ingestion →
SQLite storage → REST API → interactive dashboard with small multiples
grid.
### Backend Changes
**Ingestor (`cmd/ingestor/`)**
- New `observer_metrics` table via migration system (`_migrations`
pattern)
- Parse `tx_air_secs`, `rx_air_secs`, `recv_errors` from MQTT status
messages (same pattern as existing `noise_floor` and `battery_mv`)
- `INSERT OR REPLACE` with timestamps rounded to nearest 5-min interval
boundary (using ingestor wall clock, not observer timestamps)
- Missing fields stored as NULLs — partial data is always better than no
data
- Configurable retention pruning: `retention.metricsDays` (default 30),
runs on startup + every 24h
**Server (`cmd/server/`)**
- `GET /api/observers/{id}/metrics?since=...&until=...` — per-observer
time-series data
- `GET /api/observers/metrics/summary?window=24h` — fleet summary with
current NF, avg/max NF, sample count
- `parseWindowDuration()` supports `1h`, `24h`, `3d`, `7d`, `30d` etc.
- Server-side metrics retention pruning (same config, staggered 2min
after packet prune)
### Frontend Changes
**RF Health tab (`public/analytics.js`, `public/style.css`)**
- Small multiples grid showing all observers simultaneously — anomalies
pop out visually
- Per-observer cell: name, current NF value, battery voltage, sparkline,
avg/max stats
- NF status coloring: warning (amber) at ≥-100 dBm, critical (red) at
≥-85 dBm — text color only, no background fills
- Click any cell → expanded detail view with full noise floor line chart
- Reference lines with direct text labels (`-100 warning`, `-85
critical`) — not color bands
- Min/max points labeled directly on the chart
- Time range selector: preset buttons (1h/3h/6h/12h/24h/3d/7d/30d) +
custom from/to datetime picker
- Deep linking: `#/analytics?tab=rf-health&observer=...&range=...`
- All charts use SVG, matching existing analytics.js patterns
- Responsive: 3-4 columns on desktop, 1 on mobile
### Design Decisions (from spec)
- Labels directly on data, not in legends
- Reference lines with text labels, not color bands
- Small multiples grid, not card+accordion (Tufte: instant visual fleet
comparison)
- Ingestor wall clock for all timestamps (observer clocks may drift)
### Tests Added
**Ingestor tests:**
- `TestRoundToInterval` — 5 cases for rounding to 5-min boundaries
- `TestInsertMetrics` — basic insertion with all fields
- `TestInsertMetricsIdempotent` — INSERT OR REPLACE deduplication
- `TestInsertMetricsNullFields` — partial data with NULLs
- `TestPruneOldMetrics` — retention pruning
- `TestExtractObserverMetaNewFields` — parsing tx_air_secs, rx_air_secs,
recv_errors
**Server tests:**
- `TestGetObserverMetrics` — time-series query with since/until filters,
NULL handling
- `TestGetMetricsSummary` — fleet summary aggregation
- `TestObserverMetricsAPIEndpoints` — DB query verification
- `TestMetricsAPIEndpoints` — HTTP endpoint response shape
- `TestParseWindowDuration` — duration parsing for h/d formats
### Test Results
```
cd cmd/ingestor && go test ./... → PASS (26s)
cd cmd/server && go test ./... → PASS (5s)
```
### What's NOT in this PR (deferred to M2+)
- Server-side delta computation for cumulative counters
- Airtime charts (TX/RX percentage lines)
- Channel quality chart (recv_error_rate)
- Battery voltage chart
- Reboot detection and chart annotations
- Resolution downsampling (1h, 1d aggregates)
- Pattern detection / automated diagnosis

## Summary
- Adds a new **Prefix Tool** tab to the Analytics page (alongside Hash
Stats / Hash Issues)
- **Network Overview**: per-tier collision stats (1/2/3-byte) and a
network-size-based recommendation — collapsible, folded by default
- **Prefix Checker**: accepts a 1/2/3-byte hex prefix or full public
key; shows colliding nodes at each tier with severity badges (✅ / ⚠️ /
🔴); clicking a node navigates to its detail page
- **Prefix Generator**: picks a random collision-free prefix at the
chosen hash size; links to
[meshcore-web-keygen](https://agessaman.github.io/meshcore-web-keygen/)
with the prefix pre-filled
- **Hash Issues tab**: adds a "🔎 Check a prefix →" shortcut in the nav
- **Deep-link support**: `#/analytics?tab=prefix-tool&prefix=A3F1`
pre-fills and runs the checker; `?generate=2` pre-selects and runs the
generator
- **No new API endpoints** — 100% client-side using the existing
`/nodes` list
## Verification
Live on staging:
**https://staging.on8ar.eu/#/analytics?tab=prefix-tool**
## Test plan
- [x] Network Overview card is collapsed by default; expands on click;
stats are correct
- [x] Prefix Checker: 2-char input shows 1-byte results; 4-char shows
2-byte; 6-char shows 3-byte; 64-char pubkey shows all three tiers
- [x] Prefix Checker: invalid hex shows error; odd-length input shows
error
- [x] Prefix Generator: Generate picks an unused prefix; "Try another"
cycles; keygen link opens with prefix pre-filled
- [x] Deep link `?prefix=A3F1` pre-fills checker and scrolls to it
- [x] Deep link `?generate=2` pre-selects 2-byte and runs generator
- [x] Hash Issues tab shows "🔎 Check a prefix →" in the nav
- [x] FAQ link at bottom of generator opens correct MeshCore docs anchor

## Summary
The error-state `<tbody>` row (shown when packet loading fails)
hardcoded `colspan="10"`, while the virtual scroll spacers and the
empty-state row both use `_getColCount()` (which reads from the actual
`<thead>` and falls back to 11). One-line fix: replace the hardcoded
value with `_getColCount()`.
Fixes#406
## Test plan
- [x] Trigger the error state (e.g. kill the backend mid-load) — error
row should span all columns with no gap on the right
- [x] `node test-packets.js` — 72 passed, 0 failed

## Summary
- Replace full \`tbody\` teardown+rebuild on every scroll frame with a
range-diff that only adds/removes the delta rows at the edges of the
visible window
- \`buildFlatRowHtml\` / \`buildGroupRowHtml\` now accept an
\`entryIdx\` parameter and emit \`data-entry-idx\` on every \`<tr>\` so
the diff can target rows precisely (including expanded group children)
- Full rebuild is retained for initial render and large scroll jumps
past the buffer (no range overlap)
- Also loads \`packet-helpers.js\` in the test sandbox, fixing 7
pre-existing test failures for the builder functions; adds 4 new tests
covering \`data-entry-idx\` output
Fixes#414
## Test plan
- [x] Open packets page with 500+ packets, scroll rapidly — DOM
inspector should show incremental \`<tr>\` adds/removes rather than full
\`tbody\` teardown
- [x] Expand a grouped packet, scroll away and back — expanded children
re-render correctly
- [x] Large scroll jump (jump to bottom via scrollbar) — full rebuild
fires, no visual glitch
- [x] \`node test-packets.js\` — 72 passed, 0 failed

Weak passphrases with no KDF stretching are the #1 practical threat.
Timestamp in plaintext block 0 serves as known-plaintext oracle for
instant key verification from a single captured packet.
Key findings:
- decode_base64() output used directly as AES key, no KDF
- Short passphrases produce <16 byte keys (reduced key space)
- No salt means global precomputed attacks work
- 3-word passphrase crackable in ~2 min on commodity GPU
Reviewed by djb and Dijkstra personas. Corrections applied:
- GPU throughput upgraded from 10^9 to 10^10 AES/sec baseline
- Oracle strengthened: bytes 4+ (type byte, sender name) also predictable
- Dictionary size assumptions made explicit
- Zipf's law caveat added (humans don't choose uniformly)
- base64 short-passphrase key truncation issue documented
Formal analysis of MeshCore's ECB encryption for channel and direct messages.
Reviewed by djb and Dijkstra expert personas through 3 revisions.
Key findings:
- Block 0 has accidental nonce (4-byte timestamp) preventing repetition
- Blocks 1+ are pure deterministic ECB with no nonce — vulnerable to
frequency analysis for repeated message content
- Partial final block attack: zero-padding reduces search space
- HMAC key reuse: AES key is first 16 bytes of HMAC key (same material)
- Recommended fix: switch to AES-128-CTR mode
## Summary
`txToMap()` previously always allocated observation sub-maps for every
packet, even though the `/api/packets` handler immediately stripped them
via `delete(p, "observations")` unless `expand=observations` was
requested. A typical page of 50 packets with ~5 observations each caused
300+ unnecessary map allocations per request.
## Changes
- **`txToMap`**: Add variadic `includeObservations bool` parameter.
Observations are only built when `true` is passed, eliminating
allocations when they'd just be discarded.
- **`PacketQuery`**: Add `ExpandObservations bool` field to thread the
caller's intent through the query pipeline.
- **`routes.go`**: Set `ExpandObservations` based on
`expand=observations` query param. Removed the post-hoc `delete(p,
"observations")` loop — observations are simply never created when not
requested.
- **Single-packet lookups** (`GetPacketByID`, `GetPacketByHash`): Always
pass `true` since detail views need observations.
- **Multi-node/analytics queries**: Default (no flag) = no observations,
matching prior behavior.
## Testing
- Added `TestTxToMapLazyObservations` covering all three cases: no flag,
`false`, and `true`.
- All existing tests pass (`go test ./...`).
## Perf Impact
Eliminates ~250 observation map allocations per /api/packets request (at
default page size of 50 with ~5 observations each). This is a
constant-factor improvement per request — no algorithmic complexity
change.
Fixes#374

## Summary
Optimizes `QueryGroupedPackets()` in `store.go` to eliminate two major
inefficiencies on every grouped packet list request:
### Changes
1. **Cache `UniqueObserverCount` on `StoreTx`** — Instead of iterating
all observations to count unique observers on every query
(O(total_observations) per request), we now track unique observers at
ingest time via an `observerSet` map and pre-computed
`UniqueObserverCount` field. This is updated incrementally as
observations arrive.
2. **Defer map construction until after pagination** — Previously,
`map[string]interface{}` was built for ALL 30K+ filtered results before
sorting and paginating. Now the grouped cache stores sorted `[]*StoreTx`
pointers (lightweight), and `groupedTxsToPage()` builds maps only for
the requested page (typically 50 items). This eliminates ~30K map
allocations per cache miss.
3. **Lighter cache footprint** — The grouped cache now stores
`[]*StoreTx` instead of `*PacketResult` with pre-built maps, reducing
memory pressure and GC work.
### Complexity
- Observer counting: O(1) per query (was O(total_observations))
- Map construction: O(page_size) per query (was O(n) where n = all
filtered results)
- Sort remains O(n log n) on cache miss, but the cache (3s TTL) absorbs
repeated requests
### Testing
- `cd cmd/server && go test ./...` — all tests pass
- `cd cmd/ingestor && go build ./...` — builds clean
Fixes#370

## Summary
Replace `time.Tick()` with `time.NewTicker()` in the auto-prune
goroutine so it stops cleanly during graceful shutdown.
## Problem
`time.Tick` creates a ticker that can never be garbage collected or
stopped. While the prune goroutine runs for the process lifetime, it
won't stop during graceful shutdown — the goroutine leaks past the
shutdown sequence.
## Fix
- Create a `time.NewTicker` and a done channel
- Use `select` to listen on both the ticker and done channel
- Stop the ticker and close the done channel in the shutdown path (after
`poller.Stop()`)
- Pattern matches the existing `StartEvictionTicker()` approach
## Testing
- `go build ./...` — compiles cleanly
- `go test ./...` — all tests pass
