Brings in #4, #5, #8 (fbl100's verified Remmina/VNC mirror), APK
alternatives and the website. docs/streaming.md: Mac in the headset stays
the recommendation (now verified on the Frame); Remmina keeps #8's verified
evidence as the whole-screen fallback. docs/mac-in-headset.md cites #8's
lag finding.

Main now runs Android installs as background jobs and maps SSH failures to
one offline message. Alternative-version installs go through the same job,
the alternatives dialog waits on it with runJob, and send_error_json keeps
the apk blocker that opens the dialog.

Reducing an index no longer deletes apk-catalog/data/index-v2.json, which
the catalogue build reads. Drop the measurement log from docs.

Frame Control can now show any Mac window, or a whole screen, as its own
SteamVR panel on the Steam Frame (Tools -> Mac in the headset, macOS only).
Place it with the SteamVR dashboard; the laser clicks and scrolls, and the
Mac's own keyboard types.
- mac/frame-mac-view (Swift, no dependencies): ScreenCaptureKit capture per
window or display, VideoToolbox H.264 with low-latency rate control (JPEG
fallback), a loopback HTTP/WebSocket server, CGEvent/AX input playback,
and a display-awake assertion while anyone watches.
- ui/frame_macview.py: starts the agent, runs an ssh -R tunnel with a
supervisor that reopens it on the same port, and launches a Chromium app
window per stream on gamescope's :0, tagged with STEAM_GAME for its own panel.
- Frame Control's key never leaves the Mac: viewers get single-use,
per-source tickets and reconnect keys that Stop revokes.
- ui/mac-view.html: WebCodecs decode, keyframe recovery, pointer/wheel/keys back.
- Bundled in the Mac app build; tests/test_macview.py builds and drives the
agent on macOS.
Verified on the Frame (build 20260925.6191901) with the test pattern: panel
in about 1.5 s, about 60 fps, Mac-to-window about 11-17 ms, tunnel recovery
in 4 s. Laser input and real window capture still need a person in the headset.
Also commits the other thread's first-party rule (steam-frame skill) and
the first-party options table in docs/streaming.md.
Reviewed by GPT-6 Astra (xhigh, read-only) over six rounds; all findings fixed.

tests/fakeframe: a container that stands in for the Frame (Arch Linux, or
Arch Linux ARM on arm64) with sshd, rsync, Valve's steamos-devkit-service
and hooks (vendored unmodified), a fake Steam client for the devkit pipe and
the DevTools port (the app's JavaScript runs in Node against stand-in
SteamClient/appStore objects), stubs for steam, wpctl, flatpak, podman,
Lepton and friends, battery and thermal files under /sys, and fault
switches (fakeframe-ctl): pairing mode, approve/deny/timeout, Steam not
running, headset asleep, sshd off, disk full, runtimes missing. A second
container is the computer running Frame Control.
tests/e2e: 29 tests driving the real ui/server.py, frame_connect.py and
frame_titles.py against it; skipped unless FRAME_E2E=1. scripts/e2e.sh
builds, runs and tears down; CI runs it on ubuntu-24.04-arm.
tests/smoke + scripts/frame-smoke.sh: the core cases against a real Frame,
recorded with its BUILD_ID, cleaning up after itself; --pair to pair a
throwaway key. docs/testing.md describes the layers.

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.
