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.
Reject radio changes when receive mode cannot resume and restore the previous physical profile and power policy. Preserve selected folder OTA captures across disconnects and recoverable host I/O failures, while keeping corruption failures distinct. Validate OTA staging input before arithmetic or buffer writes and revoke published data before edits.
Commit companion channels through verified file replacement on ESP32, RP2040, and STM32, and quarantine incomplete startup reads. Recheck the last management connection during delayed wireless changes and prevent conflicting Bluetooth shutdowns. Detect complete OTA implementation sources rather than the shared inflater when configuring release builds.
Add fault-injection regressions and CI coverage for these paths, and document folder capture reconnect behavior.
Validation: 1,510 native tests; 55 host integration checks; build profile regressions; ESP32, nRF52, STM32, and RP2040 firmware builds.
