Keep the union of server routes, desktop resources and responsive controls. Preserve OpenXR install defaults and telemetry hooks alongside library artwork. Adapt the resource test to single-file entries and avoid a completed-refresh race in the F-Droid test.

- Automatic backfill touches only entries marked art_pending at install (a
devkit title Steam registered later) and fills only slots Steam has no art
for: no name, exe, VR flag or icon changes, no clearing. Older installs
without the flag are left alone and refreshed only when the user asks.
- Android remove takes the install lock that install and refresh hold, so a
refresh in progress can't recreate a removed app; a refresh after removal
finds it not installed.

- 'Refresh artwork' (settings) and the API's refresh-art --all cover devkit
titles as well as Android apps; frame_titles.py gains refresh-art ID|--all.
- Apps and titles without complete Steam artwork are flagged (art_missing):
the app shows 'Add artwork', and the CLIs' list prints the refresh command.
- When the app lists them and Steam answers, Frame Control re-applies their
art in the background (at most every five minutes), e.g. for a title Steam
registered after an install made while it wasn't running.

- Remove: collections and artwork clearing are best effort in Steam's JS, and
the host carries on to delete the files when Steam isn't running (Android
apps and devkit titles).
- Devkit titles: the shortcut is found by devkit id, the saved id, or an
executable/start folder inside the title's folder; never by display name.
Steam's overviews don't carry devkit_gameid (checked on the Frame
2026-09-28), so 'list' now reads exe/start dir from app details.
- Photo-based grid/wide/hero slots render as JPEG (a noise-heavy 3840x1240
hero was over 12 MiB as PNG on the Frame); the logo stays transparent PNG.
Rendering gets 75 s and retries once with generated art. Each slot is
cleared before it is set, since Steam keeps .png and .jpg side by side.
- Devkit titles keep their own VR flag (vr=None skips SetShortcutIsVR) and
their Sideloaded collection.
- A failed title install's cleanup can't replace the original error.
- refresh_art for devkit titles (frame_titles.refresh_art).

- Any failure of a source image or SteamGridDB (HTTPException, odd JSON) now
becomes a warning and generated art, never an aborted install; refresh-art
--all reports each app and carries on.
- URL artwork goes through apk_sources._images: public addresses only, at most
three redirects, and one overall deadline for all of an install's fetches.
- PNGs are checked from their header only (any depth or interlace; Steam's
Chromium decodes them), JPEGs may have trailing padding, and 4K screenshots
are within limits. The slow pure-Python decoder is gone.
- SteamGridDB title matching keeps letters of every script and never matches
on an empty name. One warning per source slot, not per candidate.

Resolve CLI usage and POST table conflicts. Store installs now hand the
source's own image URLs (icon, banner, screenshots) to frame_android.install
as Steam artwork; before, they passed UI proxy paths (or nothing), so every
store install fell back to generated art.

Generate five artwork slots, refresh VR shortcuts and managed collections, and retain a signal-aware launcher around setsid so stopping the wrapper cleans its container. Cover installation, artwork and launch cleanup offline; record the Steam client startup blocker for device verification.

Second review follow-up: with several activities (e.g. a splash activity ahead
of the game), the alias fallback now prefers the real activity named by the
alias's android:targetActivity. Reads targetActivity by resource id, updates
the error text and docs/vr-apks.md.

Review follow-up. inspect() now returns 'repairable' and the filters it can
patch: the real activity's VR MAIN filter, or, when LAUNCHER/VR sits only on an
<activity-alias>, any real MAIN filter with a category to copy. install() and
patch() repair on 'repairable' instead of 'vr_activity', so a flat Godot 4
export is fixed and a VR category only on the alias no longer aborts install.
Tests cover both shapes, an already-launchable activity with an alias, and an
end-to-end patch.

patch() turns corrupt-manifest struct/index errors into FrameError; a missing
layer build says so; the signing key falls back to a rename where hard links
aren't supported and explains how to recover from a bad cached key; the layer
nulls an instance it can't destroy and logs xrLocateSpaces once.
Not changed: the 1.1 Meta profile names match xr.xml's promoted names
(meta/touch_pro_controller, meta/touch_plus_controller), and grip_surface is
palm_ext renamed, so the rewrite stays (now commented).

- Anonymous PostHog analytics (ui/frame_telemetry.py): usage on by default
after a first-run notice; compatibility results and error details opt-in,
offered together by the notice's "Share more to help fix problems" button.
Random id, no person profiles or GeoIP, scrubbed text, an offline outbox,
and "Show what's been sent" in the new Privacy panel. Inert without a
project key, from a source checkout, or with DO_NOT_TRACK=1.
- APK installs now record install_failed when the APK itself won't install,
and offer a 20-second test after installing. Opted-in reports reach the
shared database through PostHog and `frame_compat_db.py sync`.
- The desktop app updates itself from published releases (app/updater.js):
update.json from releases/latest/download, SHA-256 checked, no downgrades;
macOS bundle swap, Windows NSIS, Linux AppImage, otherwise the release page.
scripts/publish-release.sh publishes a tested draft with its manifest.
- Report a problem (header button, Privacy panel, Help menu) files a GitHub
issue through the website's feedback API, with a previewed, scrubbed
diagnostics snapshot; activity and logs only when asked for.
Reviewed by GPT-6 Astra (xhigh, read-only) three times; all findings fixed.

VR apps with an arm64 OpenXR loader get frame/openxr-compat's layer unless
--no-xr-compat; the app bundle ships the layer. Verified on the Frame: Wolvic's
Quest build gets through OpenXR start-up, Open Brush still reaches FOCUSED.

- app/build/fetch-deps.js downloads a standalone Python 3.12
(python-build-standalone) for every build and adb from Google's
platform-tools, pinned by SHA-256, and prunes what the server never
uses. It replaces the Windows-only embeddable Python.
- The app runs the bundled Python with -I -u -B -X utf8, so a PYTHONHOME
or PYTHONPATH meant for another Python can't break it and nothing is
written inside the signed macOS bundle.
- An adb you already have still goes first, so two adb versions don't
keep restarting each other's server. arm64 Linux has no official
platform-tools and keeps using the system adb.
- ui/frame_apk.py reads APK badging (package, label, version, min SDK,
ABIs, icon) from the binary manifest and resources.arsc, replacing
aapt2. It matches aapt2 on nine F-Droid APKs and finds launcher icons
the old path missed with adaptive icons.
- The app reads the computer's clipboard through Electron, so Linux no
longer needs wl-clipboard or xclip.

- Child processes never inherit the server's stdin. Under the app it's the pipe
held open for --exit-on-eof, and Windows' ssh.exe waited on it forever, so
captures, the screenshot list and Android apps timed out.
- frame_connect's key check accepts a first-seen host key (as the copy step
does), so an already-authorized key doesn't trigger a password prompt.
Verified on Windows 11, Ubuntu and macOS against a Steam Frame: status,
headset and desktop captures, live video, library, Android apps, screenshots
and upload.

- Run the server with -X utf8: the bundled Windows Python ignores PYTHON* variables.
- Quote every argument in Windows terminal commands, so cmd metacharacters are literal.
- frame_connect: accept HOST:PORT, validate input, retry the config swap while
Windows' ssh.exe holds ~/.ssh/config locked, and don't apply 0o700 on Windows.
- Never use rsync on Windows; unbounded stream queue; validate FRAME_ALIAS;
more Linux terminals; bundle the window icon; docs and wording fixes.

Package the Frame Control web UI as an installable Electron Mac app and
bring in the tooling built alongside it.
- app/: Electron wrapper that starts ui/server.py on a free loopback port,
hardened window (sandbox, no navigation, runAsNode fuse off), login-shell
PATH so Homebrew tools work from Finder, first-run offer to run
connect.sh, ad-hoc signed DMG/zip via electron-builder.
- ui/: headset view (OpenVR screenshots), device status, library, Steam
"Get games" (owned games, install, store search), Android apps as
persistent Lepton instances with a rated F-Droid catalogue and a private
compatibility database, Android display controls over ADB, file and
clipboard transfer, Flatpaks, remote and power actions.
- apk-catalog/, compat-db/, frame/: catalogue build pipeline, Lakebed
capsule for compatibility reports, Frame-side launchers.
- tests/ and CI: server guard and validation tests plus Steam helper tests,
run on Python 3.9 with script and app syntax checks.
- Docs: README leads with the Mac app; new Android, panels, Steam games and
field-notes docs; security notes on LAN-exposed ADB ports.
Screenshot values for the headset's IP and Wi-Fi name are placeholders.
