Route phone custom channel variables to Meshtastic primary channel state instead of MeshCore config, keep explicit MeshCore aliases, and cover Custom/AQ short-PSK plus manual LoRa admin settings with the phone core smoke test.
Preserve protocol-specific send/discovery failures through the router and ChatService, restore MeshCore group fallback key handling, classify signed adverts/discovery responses on ESP/nRF52, and enable target logs plus smoke coverage so the next failure has actionable detail.
