- New Discover app: active NODE_DISCOVER sweep -> signal-ranked nearby list, tap-to-add-contact, GPS wardriving log (SD CSV) + signal-coloured coverage overlay on the map. Board-agnostic.
- T-Display P4 TFT-LCD (HI8561) variant support (WADA_P4_LCD build; AMOLED bin untouched).
- Wire the Attaky Core board (#158, @attakygit) into the release matrix + web flasher.

The V4-R8 uses an ESP32-S3R8 (8 MB OCTAL PSRAM) which claims GPIO33-37, so
Heltec moved every control signal off them and the Expansion Kit V2 rebuilt the
display/touch/SD block onto a hardware-SPI bus:
Vext 36->40 (active-LOW) . GPS_EN 34->42 . LED 35->46 . ADC_Ctrl removed
TFT (LovyanGFX HW-SPI): MOSI=15 SCK=16 MISO=45 CS=47 DC=48 RST=21 BL=44
touch (CHSC6x, shares board I2C 17/18) . micro-SD (shared TFT SPI, CS=3)
The build defines HELTEC_LORA_V4_TFT too, so it reuses all the V4 touch-UI code;
HELTEC_LORA_V4_R8 gates only the deltas. 8 MB enables the on-device web browser
(CAP_WEB_BROWSER) and the SD card (CAP_SD). Also wires the board into the release
+ web-flasher pipeline (release.sh, gen-flasher-meta.py, the flasher picker).
UNTESTED — no V4-R8 hardware yet. Pin sources: Meshtastic heltec_v4_r8 variant,
Heltec V4-R8 pinmap, and the Expansion_board_V2.03 schematic. All three touch
envs build clean; V4/T-Deck unregressed. On-device TODO: CHSC6x shared-Wire on
17/18, SD_CS=3, and the V2 PAM8904 buzzer.

- New "Web" app: on-device HTTPS text browser (strip HTML to readable text,
tappable links, back/fwd/refresh, no proxy). Gated to 8 MB boards via
CAP_WEB_BROWSER; hidden on the 2 MB V4 (can't do the TLS handshake).
- Tappable URLs in chat -> Open in web (8 MB) / Create QR (all boards).
- Drawn vector globe icon for the Web tile.
- Fix: French AZERTY on-screen keyboard lost its spacebar/OK/kbd-switch row
(a stray "" mid-map terminated the LVGL button map early). Restored.
- V4 web fetch resilience (192->96->48->24 KB buffer fallback).
- Home signal box: "tap for details" cue back at the top.

- New "Remote & web app" docs section covering the browser control panel
(Chats / Contacts / Discovered / Settings / Terminal), Screen mirror (VNC)
and Remote UI, with a 7-shot phone gallery of the real web app.
- Refreshed all device screenshots via the DOC_CAPTURE tour (now also
captures the Remote screen) and added the MQTT bridge settings page.
- New automated web-capture harness (scripts/doc/web-demo/): extracts the
real page from firmware, serves it with mock data, screenshots via Playwright.

- Tanmatsu (ESP32-P4) now bakes FIRMWARE_VERSION="wadamesh <tag>" like the S3
release path, and the app-store publish passes the exact beta tag into the IDF
build — so the About page shows the real beta number instead of the MeshCore
default "v1.16.0-touch".
- beta_40 stable release notes: rolls up beta_36 through beta_40.

Persistence (Leon P / MrWeavis, beta_38):
- Deleting a message or clearing a chat now persists synchronously, so it
survives an immediate hardware reset instead of "coming back" (the tombstone
used to ride the 30 s lazy SD flush, which a reset beats).
- The history file is now written compactly — only the used records,
oldest-first, instead of all ~5000 ring slots every time. A typical chat
writes ~48 KB instead of ~1.2 MB, so the synchronous delete/clear/reboot
flush no longer hitches the UI (and normal message flushes are lighter too).
Old history files still load (the reader derives its slot count from size).
Emoji picker:
- Baked the 14 glyphs that were listed but never in the font (umbrella, coffee,
pizza, cake, rocket, camera, phone, laptop, calendar, antenna, e-mail, house,
car, watch); they rendered as the notdef box.

Both new S3 boards are installable from the browser now: release.sh
builds and ships their bins per channel, gen-flasher-meta emits their
esp-web-tools manifests, and the site gets install cards for both.
The cards are pinned to the beta feed (with a note) until the first
stable promote that includes their bins; the wmSetChannel comment says
how to unpin then. beta_38's beta feed and GitHub release carry the
new bins retroactively.

New board: ThinkNode_M9_companion_radio_touch env, variants/thinknode_m9/
(board glue, LR1110 target, keyboard driver, partitions, M9_PORT.md pin
reference), boards/thinknode_m9.json, device_caps HAS_THINKNODE_M9 block,
HAS_M9_KEYBOARD input path in the touch UI (d-pad focus nav, tab jump keys,
QWERTY typing).
Based on a contributed bring-up patch by ded (SalishMesh), who also remote-
tested every build on a preproduction unit. Hard-won fixes on top of the
patch, each verified on hardware:
- LR1110 radio init -706: preprod chips run transceiver FW 0x0303, which
rejects DriveDiosInSleepMode (0x012A, added in FW 0x0308) that RadioLib
7.x sends unconditionally during begin(). New build-time patch
scripts/build/patch_radiolib_lr11x0.py tolerates it on old FW;
radio_init() prints the chip's device/FW/errors either way.
- TCXO: DIO3 at 3.3 V (the patch's active-oscillator/tcxo=0 theory gave
-707 on hardware).
- Display: rotation 1 (not 3), plus the missing landscape s_ui_rotation
override so LVGL renders 320x240 instead of portrait-into-landscape.
- Keyboard: the controller is a separate ESP32-S2 I2C slave (0x6C) with
addressed registers - reads select register 0x01 first (bare reads
return the HW-version register forever). Boot probe logs the
controller's HW/FW; backlight duty register wired.
- USB pad release: the keyboard bus lives on GPIO20/21 = the S3's native
USB D-/D+ pads, owned from reset by the ROM USB-Serial-JTAG (D+ pullup
on SDA). M9Board::begin() releases them before any bus init.
- GPIO35-37 are octal-PSRAM pins on the S3R8 - never drive them (the
patch's "SD CS = 36" misread package pin 36 = GPIO48; SD is on the
shared SPI bus, support returns with PIN_SD_CS=48 later).

New: stable/test update channels with an opt-in "Get test builds (beta)" toggle on
OTA devices (switches both the update check and what you install); experimental
opt-in MQTT bridge (consent-gated, payload encryption, direct messages off by
default); Portugal (Narrow) region preset (#74); saved-contacts counter in the
Contacts overflow menu (#72).
Fixed: the signal probe is now strictly zero-hop so a repeater can't re-flood it;
the contact list sorts before capping so the most relevant contacts show, with a
"+N more — search to narrow" footer (#73); the blocked-users list opened from
Contacts shows the two-line title bar with a back button; the Contacts overflow
popup fits the screen again.
Also lands the two-channel release tooling (scripts/release.sh stable/beta modes +
gen-flasher-meta channel arg), the docs site, and the MQTT reference decryptor.

- Fix LVGL scroll-momentum use-after-free reboot when a scrollable overlay
(emoji / quick-reply / add-channel / channel sheets, Wi-Fi scan, pickers,
app drawer) is freed mid-throw: new closeScrollOverlay() helper
(lv_indev_wait_release + lv_obj_del_async). Root-caused from field beta_18
coredumps.
- Radio & Mesh settings: airtime / duty-cycle readout + "Answer telemetry
requests" toggle, grouped into RADIO / MESH / SIGNAL sections.
- Accent popup dismissed on Enter-to-send (T-Deck physical keyboard).
- Heltec V4: Expansion-Kit Home env line + chart flow below the stats line
so they fit the 240x320 screen.

Emoji: bake 4 more Noto colour glyphs (soccer, american football, moai,
transgender flag) and add them to the picker. The trans flag is a ZWJ sequence
the single-codepoint imgfont lookup can't render directly, so its combined Noto
image is keyed on the lead codepoint (U+1F3F3) with the trailing symbol mapped to
the zero-width glyph — the whole sequence renders as the one flag. Only the 4 new
glyphs are baked + spliced (scripts/build/add-emoji.py); the existing 252 stay
byte-identical (no Noto-main art drift).
Chats header: group the three actions at the LEFT edge in the order + (add) /
✓ (mark all read) / QR (share), and draw a real baked QR glyph (qr_icon.h, from
scripts/build/gen-qr-icon.py, recoloured to the text colour) instead of the old
LV_SYMBOL_IMAGE 'picture' stand-in.
Contacts sort: every sort option now toggles ascending/descending — re-tapping the
active row in the Sort sheet flips it and shows a ▲/▼ arrow. New 'Nearest first'
(distance) sort orders by distance from our GPS and excludes contacts that have
shared no location.
Discovered list: gains the same sort sheet (Recently heard / Name / Nearest, each
asc/desc) via a sort button at the top of the list; distance likewise excludes
no-location entries.

The web-flasher manifest referenced https://firmware.wadamesh.com/latest/<board>-merged.bin
— a stable filename cached 4h (Cache-Control max-age=14400) and overwritten in place each
release. version.json (max-age=300) advertised the new tag within minutes, but the latest/
bin could keep serving the PREVIOUS beta's bytes per-POP for up to 4h, so a user flashing
right after a release could install the old version (reported: flashed beta_11, device showed
beta_10). Point the manifest at the immutable releases/TOUCH/<tag>/ bin instead — that URL is
never overwritten so its cache is always correct, and the 5-min manifest TTL propagates the
new path fast.

release.sh now regenerates deploy/meshamerica-catalog.json for the tag and, when
run on main, commits + pushes that one file so apps.meshamerica.com (the flasher
Cascadia Mesh uses) always points at the newest immutable bins instead of going
stale on the previous beta. Idempotent (no-op when already current); non-fatal if
the push fails; also mirrors the catalog into the VPS publish tree.

The esp-web-tools manifest carried a frozen version:beta_1 while the rolling
/latest/ bins moved on, so the web flasher always said beta_1. Fix:
- scripts/build/gen-flasher-meta.py emits version.json (tag + notes) + per-release
manifests (version=tag) into /latest/; release.sh + the CI workflow run it, so
the metadata rolls with every release.
- the site points the install buttons at the VPS manifests and renders a live
'What's new in <tag>' block from version.json.
- drop the frozen static site manifests.

macOS's bundled rsync errors on --chmod=D755,F644 (invalid argument). rsync -a already preserves the source perms (644 files / 755 dirs), so the flag was redundant; drop it so deploys run on a stock Mac.

Propagate the mesh-mark animation (repeater broadcast rings + cyan signal
packets on the transport trails) to the flasher page and the standalone

left static. All collapse to the static mark under prefers-reduced-motion.

deploy/site/: a visual install journey served at the apex. Hero + an animated
mesh backdrop, then a two-path chooser:
- Standalone -> embedded esp-web-tools flasher (board picker, 3 steps)
- With Launcher -> step-by-step + app-image downloads (/latest/*.bin)
apex vhost switched from 301->flasher to serving the landing; release.sh now also
rolls the app-only bins into /latest/ for the Launcher path. Deployed + verified

First board lands. wadamesh builds the LVGL touch firmware as its own project,
consuming the MeshCore core via lib_deps @ git tag (ALLFATHER-BV/MeshCore
#v1.16.0-wada.0) — no vendored core in this repo. Output is byte-identical to the
in-tree meshcomod build (delta = embedded build-path strings only).
Contents: companion_radio app (MyMesh/main/DataStore), ui-touch LVGL UI,
variants/heltec_v4 board glue, boards/heltec_v4.json, lv_conf, the bundled
ed25519 lib, AsyncElegantOTA, partition table, and a flattened platformio.ini
for env heltec_v4_tft_companion_radio_usb_tcp_touch.
MeshCore-derived files (app glue) remain MIT; ui-touch is GPL — see NOTICE.
