Same change as #1954, opened from a branch on this repository instead of from a fork. #1954 never received a workflow run: zero runs and zero check suites for its head commit, and closing and reopening it changed nothing. A manual `workflow_dispatch` on master ran immediately, so Actions itself is working; the `pull_request` event from the fork is what produces nothing. See the note at the end. Replaces the trigger-level `paths-ignore` from #1949 and #1950. That approach was wrong, and it is currently blocking #1953 from merging. ## What was wrong GitHub documents the distinction I had backwards: > a workflow skipped by path filtering keeps its checks **pending** and blocks the merge, while a **job** skipped by an `if:` conditional reports **Success** and does not. So the filtering has to live on the jobs, not on the trigger. I compounded it by claiming, in both the commit and the description of #1949, that master had no required checks: *"verified: the branch protection endpoint returns 404"*. **That verification was invalid.** A 404 there means the token cannot read protection details, not that none exist. The branch reports `protected=true`, and #1953 was refused with `the base branch policy prohibits the merge`. ## What this does A `🔎 Change scope` job computes whether anything outside `docs/`, `*.md` and `LICENSE` changed. `go-test`, `e2e-test`, `build-and-publish` and `release-artifacts` are gated on its output. A documentation-only pull request skips those jobs, they report Success, and the PR can merge. **Only pull requests are scoped.** A push or a dispatch always runs the full pipeline. That second part is deliberate and it fixes a separate failure. `release-fast-path.yml` re-tags `:edge` to `:vX.Y.Z` only when the `:edge` revision label matches the tagged commit. A master commit with no image breaks tagging, which is what happened to the v3.10.0 tag: the tagged commit was documentation-only, the fast path could not re-tag, it fell back to a dispatch, and the dispatch published nothing (#1951). Master pushes now always produce an image. The cost is running the pipeline on documentation commits to master; pull requests are where the queue pressure was. Two conservative defaults in the scope check: a non-`pull_request` event and an empty diff both count as code, so an unexpected shape runs everything rather than silently skipping. ## Note for whoever has repository settings access Fork pull requests stopped getting workflow runs between 22:36 and 05:40. #1949, #1950 and #1951 all came from the same fork and each got a run; #1954 got none, with no check suite created at all, which is different from a skipped run. `repos/.../actions/permissions` returns 403 for a non-admin token, so this could not be confirmed from the API. If the "Fork pull request workflows from outside collaborators" setting was tightened, that would explain it, and it would affect every outside contributor, not just this branch. --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
CoreScope
High-performance mesh network analyzer powered by Go. Sub-millisecond packet queries, ~300 MB memory for 56K+ packets, real-time WebSocket broadcast, full channel decryption.
Self-hosted, open-source MeshCore packet analyzer. Collects MeshCore packets via MQTT, decodes them in real time, and presents a full web UI with live packet feed, interactive maps, channel chat, packet tracing, and per-node analytics.
⚡ Performance
The Go backend serves all 40+ API endpoints from an in-memory packet store with 5 indexes (hash, txID, obsID, observer, node). SQLite is for persistence only — reads never touch disk.
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Packet queries | < 1 ms (in-memory) |
| All API endpoints | < 100 ms |
| Memory (56K packets) | ~300 MB (vs 1.3 GB on Node.js) |
| WebSocket broadcast | Real-time to all connected browsers |
| Channel decryption | AES-128-ECB with rainbow table |
| GOMEMLIMIT (memory-constrained hosts) | set to ≥1.5× working set (e.g. 1536 MiB on a 2 GB Pi for a ~1 GB store). Lower values trigger a GC death-spiral. Configure via the GOMEMLIMIT env var or runtime.maxMemoryMB in config.json; env wins. Applies to both server and ingestor. See #1010. |
See PERFORMANCE.md for full benchmarks.

Quick Start
Pre-built Image (Recommended)
No build step required — just run:
docker run -d --name corescope \
--restart=unless-stopped \
-p 80:80 -p 1883:1883 \
-v /your/data:/app/data \
ghcr.io/kpa-clawbot/corescope:latest
Open http://localhost — done. No config file needed; CoreScope starts with sensible defaults.
For HTTPS with a custom domain, add -p 443:443 and mount your Caddyfile:
docker run -d --name corescope \
--restart=unless-stopped \
-p 80:80 -p 443:443 -p 1883:1883 \
-v /your/data:/app/data \
-v /your/Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile:ro \
-v /your/caddy-data:/data/caddy \
ghcr.io/kpa-clawbot/corescope:latest
Disable built-in services with -e DISABLE_MOSQUITTO=true or -e DISABLE_CADDY=true, or drop a .env file in your data volume. See docs/deployment.md for the full reference.

Browser
Two-process model: The Go ingestor handles MQTT ingestion and packet decoding. The Go HTTP server loads all packets into an in-memory store on startup (5 indexes for fast lookups) and serves the REST API + WebSocket broadcast. Both are managed by supervisord inside a single container with Caddy for HTTPS and Mosquitto for local MQTT.
MQTT Setup
- Flash an observer node with
MESH_PACKET_LOGGING=1build flag - Connect via USB to a host running meshcoretomqtt
- Configure meshcoretomqtt with your IATA region code and MQTT broker address
- Packets appear on topic
meshcore/{IATA}/{PUBKEY}/packets
Or POST raw hex packets to POST /api/packets for manual injection.
