Report the upload address and required network, honor AP switches on an existing uploader, and keep delayed WebConfig cleanup from disabling OTA WiFi. Preserve actionable startup errors and account for OTA in wireless state controls.
Exercise the production OTA lifecycle and stock website console, including power-saving idle sessions, in host regression tests.
Switch eight S3 board defaults and 78 remaining TinyUSB recipes to hardware Serial/JTAG while preserving UART and other platforms. Restore retained S3 PHY ownership after a TinyUSB OTA restart and prepare KISS queues before enabling the driver.
Add real recipe resolution, Companion/KISS transport sanitizer coverage, and RF lifecycle reset regressions to CI. Native tests pass 1765/1765; SDK, transport, recipe and USB watchdog checks pass. Board and role cross-compilation and physical OTA qualification continue.
Arm the test watchdog through initial loop service and assert both recovery boundaries. Update cooperative contact negative controls for the current background APIs and run the existing USB, contact persistence, and startup regressions in Actions.
Validation: 1762 native tests, 48 added-workflow fixture tests, and 18 related persistence/logging checks passed locally.
Every observer build now carries both channel URLs, so checking for a URL's
presence or absence can no longer tell prod from beta (and the old checks would
reject every build). Read the ota-base-* tags from every .bin in out/ instead
of a single ELF, with URLs shared by build.sh and both workflows.
Use a bounded uzlib-derived block encoder with the existing strict tinf decoder, qualify infrastructure roles, budget temporary RAM, and cache running-image metadata. Add self-serve CLI and policy, USB host-loss sleep grace, hardware test harnesses, regression tests, and CI coverage.
Keep Companion and Terminal Chat profiles unchanged; retain full-sensor and reduced-sensor OTA builds. Add compact crypto and OTA names, qualified display asset compression, font license packaging, and scope regression tests.
Keep the graceful final-ACK TCP close and optional FEM control guards from
pixitha's browser compatibility fixes. Replace Brotli negotiation and duplicate
page assets with one gzip representation compressed by Google Zopfli 0.4.3
using 1,000 iterations. Compress the bootstrap, captive success, compact OTA,
and static WiFi setup pages with the same validated build cache.
Honor gzip quality values and wildcard precedence. Validate compressed OTA
page evidence in the firmware capability gate, and add native and Python
regressions plus CI coverage. Remove the unused Brotli build dependency.
Validation: 54 native tests, 56 Python/browser checks, full V4.3 build and
verified application flash. Actual V4 WiFi responses matched the generated
gzip assets; 30 repeat downloads completed without reboot. Chromium loaded
the setup and settings pages without script or transfer errors. Physical
Android testing is pending because the Pi detects no phone over USB or mDNS.
