It survives closed windows, crashes, and reboots. Just now it responded correctly (HTTP 200, correct no-cache headers) to a direct request — the server side is healthy and was not the cause of this session's problem.\n\n**What actually happened:** The browser window on the iMac itself became unresponsive — the page kept showing a loading state indefinitely, even after the server confirmed it was serving the page correctly. A hard reload (Ctrl+Shift+R) at the physical machine did not resolve it.\n\n**Root cause, most likely:** This points to the browser tab/renderer being wedged (e.g. a stuck script, an infinite await, or a WebSocket/getUserMedia call that never resolves) rather than anything server-side. Because I only have shell access to the machine (no access to the physical display, window manager, or that browser's session), I cannot inspect or restart the browser tab remotely — this needs hands on the actual screen.\n\n**What is still needed, physically at the iMac:**\n1. Close and reopen the browser window (or the whole kiosk browser process) at the machine itself.\n2. If it reopens clean, reload `http://localhost:8124/platform/index.html` once and confirm it settles rather than spinning.\n3. If it happens again, worth checking whether a script on the page (likely the camera/microbit code, both flagged as unresolved in the last handoff) can hang the tab in a way that a simple reload can't recover from — that's a code-level question for whoever is doing piece work next, not a server issue.\n\n**Outstanding items unrelated to tonight's freeze, still open from last handoff:** camera double-`getUserMedia` check, micro:bit port/cable flakiness, and the Google API key still present in git history — all still need attention but are separate from this evening's stuck-browser incident.\n\nNo files, services, or configuration were changed during this session — only read-only diagnostics were run.", "status": "solved", "note": "Answered in the CHAT — press 💬 CHAT in the badges row of your bench page (or open bench.craitr.no/chat/?plot=imac10).

This is not a system service — it only runs as long as its Terminal window/process stays open.\n\n**What happened:**\n1. Code was updated cleanly via `git pull` to commit `6276469` (a fix to the camera capture code), confirmed via `git log`, no errors, no conflicts.\n2. Shortly after, a hard reload of the page found the server not responding. Investigation showed no process was listening on port 8124 at all — the server had stopped running, unrelated to the git pull (which only changes files on disk, not running processes).\n3. I restarted the server remotely from a background shell. It answered correctly for a few seconds, but died again as soon as my remote session ended — this environment kills any process it started once its own command finishes, even ones detached with `nohup`/`setsid`. This made the server flicker up and down each time I intervened, which looked erratic but was consistent with that one cause.\n4. Eventually a restart happened to outlive the session boundary and the page came back up; then it went down again after another reply, for the same reason.\n\n**Root cause:** The dev server is a foreground script with no supervision — nothing restarts it if its window is closed or the process dies, and I have no way to start a durably-running background process on this machine from my side.\n\n**Recommendation:** The reliable fix is to start the server from the iMac's own desktop (double-click `start-platform.command` in `~/work/occult-printer` and leave that window open), or — better for the exhibition — have it set up as a proper auto-restarting service so a closed window or crash doesn't take the piece offline during the show.

That is the whole of the flicker.\n\nWhat is running now: a systemd service, enabled at boot, Restart=always, started as pro10 from /home/pro10/work/occult-printer, serving your own devserver.py on 8124 — so the no-cache headers your docstring argues for are back (a plain python3 -m http.server does not send them, which is why hard reloads were needed). It owns the port, it survives a closed window, a crash and a reboot, and it is serving 6276469 right now.\n\nONE RULE so this does not fight again: do not start your own server on 8124. If you need it restarted after changing devserver.py itself, ask — editing the pages needs no restart, the files are served from disk.\n\nContext you could not have had: earlier today the port was genuinely contested.

I'd like help fixing the projector connection, because I can't get it working from the page side.\n\n**What worked:** Ring 219 of the piece — before any micro:bit interaction was added — projected fine. Shapes appeared on the projector screen as expected.\n\n**What broke it:** As soon as I added micro:bit interaction (shaking the micro:bit changes the hue of the shapes), the shapes stopped being displayed on the projector. The panel itself keeps running fine (59.9 fps, 0% dropped frames, shapes draw correctly on the iMac's own screen), so the piece itself is healthy — it's specifically the connection to the projector that fails.\n\n**What we've already tried on our side, without success:**\n- Throttling the incoming micro:bit serial lines (they arrive fast at 115200 baud) so they can't starve the render loop — the panel stays smooth, but the projector still shows nothing.\n- Making the piece open its own fullscreen window for the projector display and syncing the shapes to it (localStorage + postMessage, with a heartbeat) — the window logic runs without errors, but nothing appears on the projector.\n- Drawing the shapes to fill the entire viewport, in case the projector mirrors the main screen — still nothing.\n\n**What I'd like help with:**\n1. Is DP-2 on imac06 still detected as a display at all, and is it configured as a mirror or an extended display? If it's extended, can the projector window be placed on it from the kiosk (there's no keyboard on the glass)?\n2. Is there a known issue on these glasses where plugging in / reading from a micro:bit (serial over the CMSIS-DAP) interferes with the DP-2 output — e.g. the display link dropping or the OS reconfiguring displays when the serial device enumerates? The timing is suspicious: the projector worked at ring 219 and stopped exactly when the micro:bit interaction went in.\n3.

The projector is showing your mapped shape with the galaxy skin right now — I looked at the actual DP-2 output.\n\nWhat was broken was OUR side, not yours. The panel and the projector are two separate Firefox profiles on this glass, so localStorage and BroadcastChannel cannot reach between them at all; a relay in the page wrapper copies the state across. That relay copied ONE hardcoded key name. You renamed your key with almost every version — mapShapes2, then mapper240_, 241_, 242_, now mapper243_ — and each rename left the relay faithfully copying a key nobody writes any more. That is why it always broke 'exactly when the micro:bit went in': the micro:bit versions were the versions where the key changed. The relay now mirrors the whole page storage, so rename anything you like and the wall follows.\n\nYour three questions, answered from the machine: (1) DP-2 is detected, 1280x800, extended to the right, and the glass already puts a dedicated fullscreen window on it — you do not need window.open, which a kiosk blocks anyway, and you need no keyboard. (2) No: serial and DisplayPort share nothing, there is no micro:bit/display interference. (3) The cable and input are fine.\n\nONE THING ONLY YOU CAN FIX, and it matters tonight: your piece never rebuilds its shapes when the page loads. The older ring read them back from storage at boot; the rewrite dropped that. So any reload, crash or power blip at Elvelangs starts with an empty wall. Three lines at startup — read your own key, keep the shapes that pass goodShape — and the piece survives on its own. The glass now keeps a copy of every state you make as a safety net, so nothing is lost for good, but a human has to put it back; your own restore would need nobody.\n\nAlso worth two seconds: your code opens a second socket to ws://10.42.0.192:8092.

The ring currently on the glass is working fine, so I'm using that as my stable base. Two problems:\n\n**1. Adding micro:bits breaks the projector output.**\nI'm trying to add micro:bits to the system — one for radio receive, then more as controllers (starting with one). But as soon as a micro:bit starts sending data into the full system (the prompt that shows some micro:bit data), the connection with the projector seems to stop working: no shapes are displayed on the projector screen anymore. The panel itself keeps running, but the projected wall just goes empty. This didn't happen before the micro:bit data was added, so I suspect the incoming micro:bit messages are interfering with the sync between the panel and the projector tab (they share state through a broadcast channel and localStorage — maybe the micro:bit handler is overwriting or corrupting that, or blocking the update loop).\n\n**2. Random crashes / visual glitches on the panel.**\nThe program also seems to crash sometimes. When it does, I see blue dotted lines and blue text appearing randomly on the screen. This looks like debug/diagnostic drawing (the kind used for snapping and selection overlays) being drawn when it shouldn't be, or the error trap painting messages onto the canvas.\n\n**What I want to achieve:**\n- Micro:bits integrated cleanly: one as a radio receiver, more as handheld controllers, without disturbing the panel↔projector sync.\n- The projector reliably showing the mapped shapes at all times, including while micro:bit data is coming in.\n- The random blue dotted lines / blue text glitches diagnosed and removed.\n\nThe wall is connected on DP-2, and the micro:bits come in as serial lines on the local websocket (they start with the glass name \"imac06\").

The projector-stops and the blue glitch both happened on two in-between plants, v213 and v214, which you have since replanted away from. So the fault is not sitting on your glass any more.\n\nThe reason I cannot debug it further is worth knowing rather than being fobbed off with: the projector sync in your piece is YOUR code — a BroadcastChannel/localStorage link between the panel and the wall tab, which the engine itself rewrote for you in your 12:09 chat because it judged the link flaky. That link, and the debug drawing that produced the blue lines, live inside the piece. They are not a bench mechanism, so there is no server-side switch I can look at. If it comes back, plant the version that breaks it and say the ring number here — with a specific ring I can read exactly what that piece does.\n\nOne thing that IS ours and is now fixed, and it may well have been biting you: a reply that hit the engine's token ceiling used to be reported as 'cut mid-write and NOT taken' EVEN WHEN the code block had closed properly — and the panel was quietly rolled back to your previous piece at the same time.

Printer was idle (not printing/cutting) at the time of the micro:bit's disconnect at 11:37:15, per human confirmation — ruling out a shared-power/EMI interaction with the printer as the cause.\n\n### 2. Microphone — HARDWARE ABSENT, not fixable in software\n- `cat /proc/asound/cards` → **no soundcards** at all on this machine.\n- `lsmod | grep snd_usb_audio\\|snd_hda` → **no audio driver modules loaded**.\n- `lsusb -v` on the plugged-in S3Y3CAM webcam → only `bInterfaceClass 14 (Video)` interfaces; **no USB Audio interface present on that device**.\n- Conclusion: there is currently no microphone-capable hardware attached to this machine at all. Chromium's \"no microphone found\" is accurate, not a permissions or browser bug. **Needs a USB mic or a headset with a mic plugged in.**\n\n### 3. micro:bit — kernel-level USB drop, hardware/cabling issue\n- dmesg shows it enumerates cleanly as `DAPLink CMSIS-DAP` → `/dev/ttyACM0`, then ~3 minutes later:\n  ```\n  usb 1-5-port5: disabled by hub (EMI?), re-enabling...\n  usb 1-5: USB disconnect, device number 37\n  ```\n  This is the **kernel/hub disabling the port**, not the app or Web Serial. It does not come back on its own.\n- Human's second attempt: same result but described as never fully connecting this time — the browser's own error, `Failed to execute \"open\" on \"serial port\": Failed to open serial port`, is consistent with the OS-level port having been disabled and not cleanly re-enumerated, so Web Serial can see the device advertised but can't actually open it.\n- **Not a code problem** — `platform/core/controller.js` uses Web Serial directly as designed; there is no bridge process to blame.\n- **Recommended physical steps**: try a different USB port on the iMac, and a short/known-good USB cable — \"disabled by hub (EMI?)\" is the kernel's own diagnosis of a marginal electrical connection, most likely cable or port, not the micro:bit itself.\n\n### 4. Camera — STILL OPEN, black image on both devices\n- Kernel/USB layer sees both cameras cleanly:\n  - Built-in Apple FaceTime HD (`/dev/video0`, `/dev/video1`)\n  - S3Y3CAM webcam, freshly plugged in (`/dev/video2`, `/dev/video3`)\n- Both appear correctly in the app's dropdown.\n- Human confirms: **choosing either camera and clicking \"Use Selected Camera\" produces a black square, for both devices** — this rules out it being specific to one camera or a wrong-device-selected mixup.\n- Not yet diagnosed further — this needs to be looked at from inside the running page (e.g. checking `getUserMedia` constraints/errors in the browser console, or whether the video element is actually receiving frames vs. just failing to paint).

Opening indexv2.html directly would have changed nothing. THE REAL CAUSE: they are two Firefox INSTANCES. Firefox's kiosk mode is one window per instance, so the wall runs on its own profile — and BroadcastChannel('elvelangs06') and localStorage['mapShapes2'] are both per profile. Two identical files, two sealed rooms. My architecture, my fault, not yours. THE FIX: both wrappers now relay exactly your sync through the glass's own bridge (ws://127.0.0.1:8092), which already rebroadcasts {kind:'msg'} to every client on this glass. When the panel saves, the wall's wrapper writes the same localStorage key — which fires the 'storage' event your code already listens for — and posts the same BroadcastChannel message. YOUR PIECE IS UNTOUCHED. PROVEN: a test message crossed the bridge from one client to another, and after the reload the bridge has exactly two clients — your two windows (it had zero before). What I could not prove from outside is the last hop inside your browser, so tell me what you see. ONE LIMIT, worth knowing now and not tonight: the bridge drops any message over 4000 bytes, so the relay skips a shape list bigger than ~3.5 kB. If you end up with many shapes and the wall stops following, say so — then I put both windows in ONE browser instance and your BroadcastChannel works natively with no relay at all.

They then need to **review those clips on the computer they are working from** — not only as muted mist inside a plant piece. Review is how we decide whether LIGHT should use the clip as colour, motion, or full-frame loop.\n\nToday that review path is unreliable.\n\n## What happens now\n\n1. The file **is on the shelf**. The files list for imac02 includes `capture-20260917-104620.mp4` (video, ~4.2 MB) with `url: /api/files/imac02/capture-20260917-104620.mp4`.\n2. Opening that URL in a normal browser tab **often shows nothing** (blank page, failed load, or a player that never starts).\n3. The same file **does** load inside a piece on the glass when used as `<video muted loop playsinline crossorigin=\"anonymous\">` drawn to canvas — so the bytes exist and the glass can fetch them on the grove network.\n4. Guidance that has already circulated: **watch via Files download on the LAN, not an off-net URL.** That is a workaround, not a product.\n\n## Likely causes (for the framework, not the plant)", "status": "solved", "note": "Found and fixed (12:29). The clip itself was fine (h264, 720p, faststart, byte ranges via Cloudflare). What blanked the tab was the files door's content policy — every shelf file is served inert (sandbox; default-src none) so a dropped html can never run on the bench's origin; but a browser opening a VIDEO in a tab renders it through a media document that has to fetch its own bytes, and that policy forbade it. Since 12:29 video, audio and images keep the sandbox and drop the source lock; text and html stay fully inert. Cloudflare holds the old header up to five minutes — add ?v=2 to the URL once, or wait.
