Integrate upstream 1.18.0, delayed direct ACK forwarding, zero-scope routing, Waveshare LR1121 and dynamic WiFi variants. Preserve fork chemistry-aware power management and bounded multi-interface UI; retain retry/dedup safety while adding upstream ACK delay. Qualify LR1121 band power and HP-only Morse handling with native regressions.
Add opt-in bounded chat history, persist explicit room ACL roles, enforce full-key bans and per-user quotas, and provide versioned information-board reads plus an ESP32 local room page. Preserve stored evidence on faults and withhold room delivery acknowledgments when a Companion cannot retain the message.
Exercise production handlers and filesystem fault recovery, pinned official-app JavaScript, real Chromium interactions, and representative ESP32, nRF52, RP2040 and STM32 builds. Add regression suites and bounded browser-workspace RAM reservations to CI.
Persist Companion TX preferences per contact and channel. Default repeater,
room, and sensor replies to both active TX profiles, with a reply-only force
option for an RX-only secondary profile. Track both reply copies before a
temporary-radio handoff and account for OTA copies under queue backpressure.
Add bridge/crossover filter modes and the third built-in wardriving filter,
plus compact filter CLI syntax, documentation, and CI coverage.
Fix quoted target names being interpreted as slot/key selectors, partial
recovery of invalid saved reply settings, filter suspension during tempradio2,
and unnecessary packet allocation while OTA traffic is throttled.
Validation: 1,477 native tests, 52 Python integration tests, 29 filter UI tests,
and five firmware builds covering ESP32, nRF52, and STM32 passed.
