A MeshCore companion never advertises by itself, so the hourly zero-hop and
daily flood adverts MeshTerm sent by default were the only automatic adverts
on the air, and more than a companion needs. The Background adverts rows leave
Device config and `config advert-cadence` goes with them.
In their place, two preferences under Sending: weekly_flood_advert (off by
default) and advert_quiet_s (5/15/30/60 s, default 30). Each device keeps its
own real-time week, running from the latest of the switch-on, its last flood
advert (automatic or by hand), and its first connection; a due advert survives
a restart. Before sending, each connection must hear a packet, then the air
must stay quiet (nothing heard, nothing of ours sent) for the spell plus a
random 0-5 s, drawn afresh at every break so two waiting radios part.

A new "Set clock on connect" preference (Device group, off by default) has the
interactive session write the host time to the radio once per connection — at
launch, on a deferred connect, and after a reconnect, since a link drop is exactly
when a board without a real-time clock may have rebooted and lost the time. The
set runs in a background task off the connect path and reports only in the log,
with the drift it corrected; a refused write costs a warning line, never the
session. Scripted CLI runs never start the service, so a one-shot command that
only reads the radio never writes its clock.
The device-side step is the one the Device config screen's Sync clock action
already ran inline in apply_ops; it is lifted into services/clock_sync.set_clock
and the action and the service both call it.

Apache-2.0 does not require per-file headers, but a file lifted out of the tree carried no marking at all. One comment line, first (or right after a shebang), on every .py under meshterm/, tests/, packaging/ and scripts/, plus the extensionless SPI bridge; tests/test_spdx.py keeps a new file from landing without one.

A camera reads contrast, and a light-on-dark code is what a scanner expects
of a screen, so every code MeshTerm draws is now pure white ink on a pure
black field (the theme's `qr` style, both ends named on both themes), never
black on white.
The share views — a channel's share link, a contact card, the CLI's share
commands run in the menu — are no longer a titled popup with an instruction
over the code. They are `QrScreen`, a **bare frame**: `Screen.bare` and
`frame.compose_bare` draw the body alone on blank rows, with no header, no
footer, no title bar, no box, no hint and no F-key lane, and nothing on it
but the code and the URL it encodes, sat a little above centre. Esc leaves.
The code fits itself to the frame every paint, width and rows both: the
standard fit first, then a lighter error level, then a narrower quiet zone,
before it would ever be cut — a contact card is 57 cells and 29 rows at the
standard fit, the PicoCalc is 53 across and a regular terminal 24 tall. When
code and URL can't share the frame the code is whole at the top and the URL
a page down. The frame states its height before it asks for the body, which
is what lets the screen size to it.
A `qr` fence in a written page is the one exception and keeps its place in
the prose — the About pages' codes flip to white on black like the rest.
Found on the way: the PicoCalc's SGR quantizer matched a colour only when it
was a whole sequence, and Rich writes a style's foreground and background as
one sequence (`ESC[38;2;…;48;2;…m`), so a white-on-black module reached the
console in truecolor. It now walks every sequence's parameter list.
The standard is written into CLAUDE.md under Screens and lists; the gallery
carries the share screen as a specimen on both platforms.

The Device actions menu entry is gone: clock sync, backup/restore, the identity
key, reboot and factory reset are an Actions section on the Device config page,
which now takes the repeater admin page's shape. It is full-screen, titled with
the node's name and a staged count, and Apply sends in place, one value at a
time; a value the device refuses stays staged with its reason. Read settings
re-reads the device, and unread and blank values read ? and empty.
The settings were checked against the companion firmware (MyMesh.cpp). New:
client repeat, the radio command's trailing byte. Every radio edit now restates
it, because the firmware reads a missing byte as off and a retune silently
stopped a relaying companion. Also new: the auto-add hop limit, read off the raw
frame the library half-parses, and a row for each custom variable the device
reports. The firmware's own bounds now apply: a PIN of 0 or six digits,
path-hash modes 0-2, telemetry deny / by contact / allow all, 150-2500 MHz,
7-500 kHz, and TX power from -9 dBm.
Neither editor page slides its rows sideways any more. The Actions rows pin a
head block, which on its own turned on horizontal scrolling for repeater admin's
whole list and slid its setting labels out of view. SelectScreen(hscroll=False)
now holds against the rows, and both pages use it, so long rows end at the edge
the way Device config's always did.

Forty-nine leaf commands now state a Report instead of printing one, so --json
works on all of them at once rather than on the two that grew a branch for it.
The two hand-rolled JSON paths are gone: devices no longer builds a payload dict
of its own, and its empty scan exits 5 like the plain path always did rather than
0 — a rendering flag has no business moving the report.
The plain face changes premise along with it. It used to be a serialisation
format a person could squint at, and several of its rules existed only to make
splitting safe. Splitting is the machine face's job now, so:
- Names are bare. Alignment is the delimiter; the escaping under the quoting
stays, because nothing else stops a name a node broadcast from ending its own
record.
- Times are ages. "Heard recently?" is the question a contacts listing is opened
to ask, and an ISO instant makes the reader do arithmetic to answer it.
--absolute puts the instants back; an appointment, the device clock and a live
capture's own column were never ages and still aren't.
- A route takes arrows and a path keeps its commas. The lexicon has always split
these and the output never did, so a route line looked pasteable into --path,
which it is not.
- The listings gain what was cut for parser hygiene: contacts gets the HASH
--path takes and a LOCATION the model has always carried, preferences gets the
DESCRIPTION already written in its registry, and the two live streams get
pinned lanes — which is what let them have columns at all, and with them the
last call site for the quoting.
- The four written pages wrap at 72 instead of printing 600-cell paragraphs. It
is the one exception to "no wrapping", and the rule's own reason says why: a
paragraph has no fields to land under the wrong headings.
info keeps its keys and gains a gloss on the four readings nobody can hold in
their head (93784 (1d 2h)); it is the one key/value block with no set behind it,
so there is no round trip to protect. config show is untouched, deliberately.

Turning markup off on the scripted console stopped a node name being read
as a style. It also stopped every tag MeshTerm writes *itself* from being
consumed — so `config export-key > key.hex` wrote a file with
`[muted]` and `[/muted]` around the private key that was supposed to be
its whole content. `PlainUi.note` is documented to take markup and now
resolves it to text, which fixes the leak wherever it is written rather
than only where it was found; the key itself is bare on both faces.
Escaping covered the newline, the tab and the return, and let ESC
through — a live colour run written into the caller's file, which is the
one thing "not a single escape sequence" exists to prevent. BEL was
worse: dropped in silence, so the printed name was not the advertised
one, and U+2028 ended the record like a newline. It is now every C0 and
C1 control plus the two Unicode separators, named escapes where one
reads and numeric everywhere else. Legitimate non-ASCII is untouched.
The covered-command list is now walked out of the Typer app instead of
kept by hand. It was six commands of forty-nine, and both violations
above sat in the forty-three — the `---` in `about` drawn as a rule the
width of a 16384-cell console, and the tags above. Verified by putting
each bug back and watching the sweep name it.
Three assertions could not fail. `len(set(MEANINGS)) == len(MEANINGS)`
is true of every dict, so "no two outcomes share a status" was unenforced
— renumbering NO_DEVICE to 4 left all three green while status 3 vanished
from --help. `" " * script.GUTTER in record` reads the constant it
checks, narrowing to `" " in record` exactly when the gutter narrows.
Both are literals now.
The four rule tests read `result.output`, which is stdout and stderr
mixed, while the rules they enforce are about stdout — so a heading that
only ever appeared on stderr would have satisfied them.
And $MESHTERM_HOME is isolated for every test, not just the CLI ones:
--db moves the history and nothing else, so any test touching a store,
a preference or the logger was reading the developer's own directory.

The review pass found the CLI breaking its own written rules.
A node broadcasts its own name, so every name the CLI prints is remote
data — and Rich read `[...]` in it as a style tag. A node called
`[bold]Loud` printed as `Loud`, silently no longer the string that
identifies it; a node called `[/]Bob` raised MarkupError and took the
command down. The log handler then failed the same way while reporting
it, replacing the diagnostic with a traceback about the diagnostic. No
log line and no scripted line is ever marked up, so all three consoles
now say so.
`right=` never right-aligned anything. Rich's `Text.wrap` returns early
on `overflow="ignore"`, above the justify step, so asking for one threw
the other away — every numeric lane in the CLI was left-aligned while
CLAUDE.md, script.py's own docstring and the manual all said otherwise.
"crop" refuses to elide just as firmly and still aligns.
`config show` printed an empty string as `""` and `config set` read
those two characters literally, so feeding a dump back in replaced every
empty setting with a pair of quote marks — and the next dump looked
identical, so nothing ever said so. It also masked an *unreported* PIN
behind six bullets, telling the reader the radio was PIN-locked when it
was not: `conceal` already declined to mask the menu's absence token and
had simply never been shown the CLI's.
`meshterm about` drew the `---` above its colophon as a rule sized to
the console, which on a 16384-cell console is one 48KB line in a 4KB
page. A rule is a frame; the scripted copy drops it with the QR.
The contract fixture set only `--db`, which moves the history and
nothing else — so the suite read whatever was in the developer's own
~/.meshterm. That is how `[/]Bob`, planted by hand on one machine, could
crash the suite there and pass everywhere else. $MESHTERM_HOME moves the
whole directory.

docs/cli.md documents every command and option, what each one prints, and
what it returns -- with the output conventions and the exit-status table
up front, since those are the two things a script is written against.
Every command, option and flag in it was checked against the running app;
the sample output is captured from the simulator rather than typed out.
Writing it turned up two places the CLI still did the thing the last
commit was about. A destructive command refused for want of --yes printed
its refusal in red on *stdout* and exited 1: a colour and a sentence that
is not the command's answer, in whatever was reading the command's answer.
A missing confirmation is a bad invocation, so it now goes through the
parser like any other -- nothing on stdout, the reason on stderr, exit 2.
The README keeps its cookbook and its summary of the conventions, and
points at the manual for the rest.

The CLI had grown the menu's manners -- colour, boxes, section headings,
glyph columns, a closing check mark -- and every one of them is in the way
of the thing it is actually for. It now prints like a standard Unix
utility: plain text, no escape sequences at all, no frames, one record per
line, and nothing wrapped, so a long line runs off the right instead of
folding its fields onto a second one.
meshterm/ui/script.py is the whole vocabulary. Listings are an uppercase
header and space-aligned records; key/value blocks are sysctl's shape, and
a `get` prints the bare value alone. Names are quoted wherever they share a
line, because a name can hold a space or a comma and a bare one is not a
field. A route reads "Origin" (3d),"Relay" (f2),"Us" (a1) -- the hash
outside the quotes, our own node a hop like any other rather than a star,
since the hash is what carries the identity that colour carries on screen.
Times are absolute local ISO-8601 and "-" is the one token for absent.
The return value is now half the report: 0 ok, 1 failure, 2 usage, 3 no
device, 4 the device was reached and the operation failed, 5 nothing to
report. That last one is the point -- a command that ran fine and found
nothing prints nothing and says so in $?, so a script never has to count
output lines to tell an empty mesh from a full one. Errors and progress
moved to stderr, and an expected failure no longer arrives as a traceback.
Two things lose their scripted face rather than get a degraded one. The map
is a picture whose nodes are told apart by colour: monochrome it would be
unreadable, coloured it could not be piped anywhere useful, and the nodes
themselves are still in `contacts`. The QR codes are a second rendering of
a link the output already prints.
ui.ack joins ui.note to draw the line the change needed: a note is output,
an acknowledgement is reassurance a person wants and a script must filter
out, so the menu prints it and the CLI drops it.

`ruff format .` across the repo: 153 files, no behaviour change. This is the
second gate CONTRIBUTING.md promises, and until now it reported 154 files needing
reformat — so a first contributor ran the command the guide told them to run and
could not tell their own diff from the background.
Landed on its own, with nothing else in it, because a whole-repo reformat is only
safe to skip past in blame if it is provably nothing but layout. It was checked
that way rather than assumed: every changed file was formatted in memory and
compared by full `ast.dump()`, and 152 of 153 come out structurally identical
(the one exception was a docstring opening on a quote character, fixed in the
commit before this one). The string and comment token streams were diffed
separately, so a quote flip or an edited comment could not hide inside a
re-layout — five quote-style normalisations and sixteen implicit-concatenation
joins, all value-identical, and one commented-out line gaining the space after
its `#`. `meshterm specimen` is byte-identical on both platforms, and the suite
is 1888 green, gallery gate and `test_theme16` included.
What actually changed, in order of how much of the diff it is: wrapped calls and
signatures rejoin onto one line where they fit inside the hundred columns; the
magic trailing comma expands what it is there to expand; complex slices gain
their spaces (`[len(noise) :]`); a few redundant parens go. The tables that are
laid out to be read were fenced in the previous commit and are untouched here.
The aligned trailing-comment column is gone from about ninety lanes that were not
fenced — including the `heat.*` ladder in `MESH_THEME`, which cannot be fenced
where it sits. Every comment stays on the entry it describes, so nothing there
reads wrong; it just no longer lines up.
Add this commit to `.git-blame-ignore-revs`, which follows immediately.

`ruff check --fix` over the whole tree, ahead of putting the linter in CI:
1977 mechanical fixes, overwhelmingly `Optional[X]` → `X | None` (1186 in the
package alone) and the quoted annotations that `from __future__ import
annotations` already made unnecessary, plus import sorting and unused imports.
Nothing here changes behaviour — the suite is 1885 green before and after.
Four findings were real rather than stylistic and are fixed by hand: a dead
`cells` range in `MapCanvas`, a dead slot dict in the heat-ladder test, a
`ProgressScreen` task handle nobody read, and a tab loop binding a `label` it
never used. The two `F821`s were quoted forward references to names imported
inside their function bodies — now declared under `TYPE_CHECKING`, which keeps
`test_performance`'s local import (it guards the startup import graph) while
letting the linter resolve the name.
412 findings remain and are deliberately untouched: they need a decision about
the rule, not an edit to the code.

Two rows renamed, and the rename carried into the screens they open —
the config editor's table title and its staged-count header, the support
page's own title (it comes from the tool, so it followed on its own).
"Support this project" never said which project; the menu is MeshTerm's
and the section above it is already About MeshTerm, so the name is the
useful half of that phrase. "Device configuration" was the longest label
in the list and set the width of the whole name column: at 19 cells
instead of 23, every description now gets 51 and the widest row is 68.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The label column is the widest tool title plus two cells of gap, which
leaves the muted description 47 to work in. All 22 of them ran past it —
"Act on the device itself — clock, backup, identity key, reboot, reset"
needed 94 columns of terminal to say what 67 could. The row scrolled
under ←→ rather than lying, but a description you have to scroll is a
description nobody reads.
Rewritten to fit: the subject moves into the title's shadow (the row
already says Device actions, so the description just lists them), the
parenthetical asides go, and the trailing clause that repeated the
obvious goes with them. Widest row is now exactly 72.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The menu asks "What would you like to do?" and then grouped its rows by
subject, which is not an answer to that. Mesh had grown to seven of the
nineteen rows — live watching, passive browsing, and one transmit action
in the same bucket — and Tools said nothing at all, since everything in
the menu is a tool.
So each section now names a doing, and holds what shares it:
Message Chat · Channels · Courier · Contacts
Watch Dashboard · Live feed · Watchtower · Time machine
Explore Map · Mesh walk · Trace target · Trace path · Trophy case
This node Device info · Device configuration · Device actions · Send advert
Other nodes Repeater admin · TX optimize
Four rows moved for a reason. Contacts is the address book the three
features above it pick a recipient from, not a mesh view. Time machine is
the past tense of the Dashboard, and was stranded in the grab-bag. Send
advert is your own node announcing itself — a device action, filed with
the mesh views only because it was about the mesh. And Repeater admin and
TX optimize are the same job — someone else's radio, over the mesh, with
credentials — which the old Device-management/Tools split hid.
The two walks join the topology views they walk over, with the boards
that score them underneath: see a node, walk to it, get scored. Nothing
is renamed (a menu row still names the screen it opens) and no section is
now larger than five rows or smaller than two.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A firmware-less radio bridge holds its configuration only in RAM, so the node
name, radio parameters, and tuning set through MeshTerm are back to firmware
defaults when the bridge process restarts. Record every setting changed through
MeshTerm (editor, config CLI, and TOML restore all funnel through _apply_setting),
keyed by the device's own public key.
Unlike channels — silently replayed because filling an empty slot overwrites
nothing — a setting is a single canonical value, so replaying a stale one could
clobber a change made elsewhere. So the store never writes on its own: on connect
it detects drift between what it remembers and what the device reports, and a
startup offer lets the operator restore the saved values, adopt the device's
current ones, or stop remembering the device (the "don't ask again" exit). The
offer is quiet unless a connected device actually drifts, so a firmware radio you
don't manage through MeshTerm is never interrupted.

Add TCP alongside serial and BLE as a first-class companion transport, end to
end: discovery/connection/selection learn a tcp: stable_id and host:port target,
--tcp and TCP config profiles reach a WiFi board or network proxy, and a network
companion -- which isn't discoverable -- is rebuilt into the picker from its
remembered endpoint.
Device picker gains the network-device affordances:
- "Add a network device" prompts for host:port, smoke-tests it, and remembers it.
The row is marked "- experimental" in the cautionary hue.
- Delete on a network row opens a chromeless Cancel/Remove confirm (Cancel left,
Remove right and default: Enter removes, Esc cancels), then DeviceStore.forget
prunes it and re-draws the list. Serial/BLE rows stay inert.
- The "Del remove" footer atom now follows the highlight, surfacing on the box's
bottom border only while the cursor sits on a deletable row; the box is sized
to the fullest footer so it never widens mid-navigation.
Folds in the accompanying courier, channels, and config refinements built along
the way. Screens stay readable at 72 cols; full suite green (745 tests).

Opening a screen re-read the same stable facts from the companion every time — the contacts table, self-info, the path-hash mode, the channel-slot probe. Over Bluetooth each is a round-trip, and on a busy node two dominate: get_contacts (~2.4 s with hundreds of contacts) and the channel probe (~2.6 s, it walks every slot index), so navigation stalled for seconds on each screen. Measured on hardware; and asyncio.gather makes it worse, not better — the meshcore BLE UART serializes commands, so concurrent reads collide.
DeviceState (ctx.devstate) reads each fact once and serves it from cache. Contacts use stale-while-revalidate on a 90 s TTL — a read past it returns the cached list instantly and refreshes behind it, never blocking navigation on the slow call. Self-info, path-hash mode, and channel slots are held until an in-app write invalidates them: config apply drops self-info + mode, the channel editor drops channels, a reconnect resets everything. The hot screen openers (nodes, dashboard, chat, trace, TX, map, atlas, time machine, courier, watchtower) now read through the cache. The first screen opened in a session still pays the one read — shared across every screen — and every open after is instant. Transport-agnostic, so serial benefits too; harmless on --mock.

Messaging becomes Mesh and takes in Nodes (between Channels and Map —
the "who's out there" view) and Send advert (last in section: its one
action, after its views), so everything mesh-wide lives under one
heading. Device becomes Device management and keeps the box-level
tools; Diagnostics becomes Tools.

Tools gain an icon attribute — menu-only, so result windows and the
CLI keep the plain title — and the menu loop composes it into the
aligned name lane. Single-codepoint, emoji-presentation glyphs only,
so the two-cell width holds across terminals: 💬 Chat, 📻 Channels,
🌍 Map, 👥 Nodes, 📡 Send advert, 🔧 configuration, 🔨 actions,
📋 info, 🎯/👣 the traces, 🎧 Monitor, 📶 TX optimize, 🚪 Quit.

MeshTerm now announces the connected node by itself: a zero-hop advert
every 1/2/3/4 hours (default hourly) and a flood advert every
3/6/12/24/48/168 hours (default daily), each switchable off. The
cadences are staged and applied from a new Background adverts section
in the device-configuration editor, and persist per device (keyed by
public key) in adverts.json alongside the last-sent mark for each type
— so the countdown survives restarts, and a manual send from any
advert flow resets the same clock the scheduler reads.
The scheduler stays transmission-shy: at most one advert per 30 s pass
(a flood due together with a direct waits a pass), and a never-sent
device is armed to count from now rather than advertised immediately.
It holds no device subscription — each pass just skips when nothing is
connected — so reconnects need no special handling, and scripted CLI
runs never start it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Announcing the node is the everyday operation in the Device actions
bucket, but it sat two screens deep and out of reach of the main menu's
type-to-filter. Give it a top-level entry (order 10, right after Device
actions; Device info shifts to 11) via a new menu-only tool that reuses
the existing advert flow through a standalone send_advert() entry point.
Only SELF_INFO is read on open — the advert op and contact card never
need the full snapshot — so it stays snappy over Bluetooth. The row
inside Device actions stays, and scripting remains under `config
advert` / `config share`, so no new CLI subcommand.

New staged settings: contact auto-add bitmask, default flood scope
(hashtag-normalized, 31-byte slot), and the two TX delay factors the
library always zeroed (write-only on hardware, so unknown values fall
back to 0 exactly as before). TX power is now capped by the board's
reported max_tx_power instead of a hardcoded 22, with the prompt hint
and validation sharing one effective_maximum.
Device actions gain Sync clock (drift shown before writing host time;
also a config sync-clock CLI command), and Device info now leads with
a live Status panel: role, model/firmware, battery, storage, clock
drift, uptime, and radio/packet statistics — every read best-effort so
older firmware still renders.
The simulator models all of it, including a seeded clock drift.

- Dialog footer hints take the border's hue one shade darker (hint.*
theme styles), mirroring the brighter title tinting.
- Dialogs get a blank breathing row above and below the body whenever
it doesn't cost visible content.
- The chat conversation picker gains column headers over its lanes.
- The map screen titles itself "Map", matching its menu item.
- The config editor lays settings out in aligned SETTING / VALUE /
DESCRIPTION columns under a header line, and with changes staged the
Apply and Back rows sit together below the blank separator.
- Device actions move out of the config editor into their own screen
behind a new menu-only device-actions tool (CLI equivalents stay
under the config group).
- Type-to-filter keeps section headers (and column headers) in place,
and section jumps now work over the filtered rows too.
- The main menu aligns tool names and muted descriptions into two
columns, headerless.

Enforce one voice across every screen: column and section headers are
UPPERCASE, menu items are Capitalized buttons, and short descriptions
drop their trailing period (with real ellipses instead of "...").
Tools gain a display `title` separate from their kebab-case CLI name,
so a menu item now reads exactly like the screen it opens ("Device
configuration" opens Device configuration) and result windows inherit
the same name. Every sub-screen backs out via a "Back" row below a
blank separator (the config editor was missing both; its Close is now
Back, spelling out the discard when changes are staged), while the main
menu and device picker keep "Quit". Panel and dialog titles now wear a
brighter tint of their border colour via new title.* theme styles.

Rework the device-configuration screen from a flat list with an
advert-laden "danger zone" into one grouped menu whose every prompt is
a real floating modal popup over a persistent backdrop, matching the
quit dialog. The main menu now stays pushed on the session stack for
the whole editor session, so sub-prompts float over it rather than
replacing the screen.
Settings are staged and applied together (with a dirty-cancel
confirmation); device actions — adverts, reboot, backup/restore,
identity key, factory reset — run immediately behind their own
dialogs. Adverts get a dedicated menu (zero-hop, flood, or share this
node as a QR/URI contact card). Destructive actions gate behind a new
TypedConfirmDialog that requires typing RESET / IMPORT. Reboot hands
off to the reconnect dialog and waits for the companion to return.
Location can be set by pointing at the full-screen map (new
LocationPickScreen) or by typing coordinates.
Make every dialog consistent: a short title in the border, the
instruction as an in-body prompt, and a width sized to its content
instead of a fixed wide cap. TextScreen/SelectScreen/AutocompleteScreen
gain an optional in-body prompt, and those plus ConfirmScreen gain a
dialog_width; the prompt is threaded through the surface and session.
