frame-eyes, a separate project until now, becomes gaze/tracker:
- ft-eyegrab (was fe-bufprobe) copies the eye-camera frames, read-only, out of
SteamVR's eyetracking process. It runs as the system service
frametop-eyegrab.service, which gaze/tracker/install.sh installs to
/etc/frametop with sudo. It keeps only CAP_SYS_PTRACE, CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH, and
CAP_CHOWN, and copies frames only while /dev/shm/frametop-eyes-want is fresh,
holding none of the tracker's buffers otherwise.
- ft-eyes (was fe-trackd) runs under ft-gazed in the dev container, with
build/venv's pinned numpy and OpenCV: while Eye tracker is Own tracker, or on
the probe's lease ("eyes SECONDS"). No sudo password or fe-live script at
run time any more.
- lab/ holds the research tools (ft-eyes-score, -e2e, -record, -replay,
-session) and findings.md. Recordings live outside the repo, in
~/.local/share/frametop/eyes/captures; .gitignore catches stray frame dumps.
Its socket is now @ft_eyes, its output /dev/shm/frametop-eyes-gaze, and its state
~/.local/state/frametop/gaze/eyes. On practice1 -> practice2 the whole live path
(ft-eyes-e2e) gives 1.30 deg median and 3.18 for the worst tenth, as before the
move (1.30, 3.21).

The installer clones distrobox 1.8.2.5 instead of the latest code, so an
upstream change can't break new installs. scripts/report.sh collects
versions, service states, settings, and logs for an issue, with Bluetooth
addresses and the headset serial masked. The README lists the known
limitations and how to report problems.

Several KDE Plasma screens floating in SteamVR, each a real monitor of any
resolution and shape, shown by our own compositor (ft-screens), with a
layout, wrist pinning, and visibility modes; a Bluetooth mouse that drives
all of SteamVR as a room-anchored 3D pointer (input relay, ft-pointer
helper, ft_pointer SteamVR driver); two settings apps; and Bluetooth LE
fixes. Installs on the headset with ./install.sh.
