A thumbnail under the screenshot opens the 66-second trailer, which is attached to the 'trailer' release.

The build script, launcher and Steam shortcut helper now live in
saphid/chromium-webxr-steam-frame, so drop the duplicate copies here.
The doc keeps the findings, verification and upstream status.

Waking a recv blocked in another thread needs the handle closed on
Windows, which isn't safe under a TLS read (the previous commit, reverted
after review). A stalled download there holds the quit for the 4 s grace
period; its partial file is swept on the next start.

Once the SO_PEERCRED patch is applied, gclient sync refuses the modified
checkout, so a re-run failed. Sync once per revision instead.

shutdown() from another thread doesn't wake a blocked recv on Windows, so
quitting mid-download waited out the 4 s deadline there (CI's Windows
server tests). Close the handle as well, detached first so the worker's own
close can't hit a reused handle.

A Refresh in flight could leave the shared list stale when the dialog
opened. The drop now fetches the list itself and hands it to the dialog.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Only stored and deflated entries are read: Python 3.9's bzip2 and lzma
readers inflate without bound before trimming.
- loadTitles drops a response that a newer request has overtaken, so the
install dialog's replace warning uses the fresh list.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- APK reader: read members with a bounded read, since ZipFile.read inflates
a member fully before trimming it to a forged declared size; the reference
walk counts every entry it examines, dead ends and cycles included.
- Titles: a path that exists under the root wins over stripping the archive
prefix; the prefix is taken before a linked folder is staged elsewhere
(another drive on Windows); the install dialog loads a fresh title list
first and says so if it couldn't check.

- Recovery menu (AUX + Power), USB and EDL re-imaging, from Valve's docs.
- Verified cause and fix of a boot loop: steamvr-health-check wipes
~/.local/share/Steam after repeated SteamVR start failures, which then
repeat while Steam re-downloads, until the Frame reboots.
- T3 Code desktop running natively as a panel (from an earlier session).

- APK reader: cap AndroidManifest.xml, resources.arsc and icon sizes before
inflating them (APKs can come from install links), and follow resource
references without cycles and with a result budget.
- Sideloading: reserve devkit-steam (SteamOS's sideloaded-client trampoline);
the install dialog warns when a name replaces an installed title; a
manifest's exe may name the program as it is in the archive, above the
folder the installer steps into.

Tested on a Frame (BUILD_ID 20260922.6101926):
- Devkit pairing: the service runs and answers properties.json, but /register
refuses with "please put the Steam client in pairing mode" unless Steam is on
Settings > Developer > Pair new host. Both setup paths now say so and keep
asking for 2 minutes before falling back to the password.
- Sideloading: registering, launching, quoted start paths and Remove work; a
Windows exe runs under Proton 11 through FEX. An aarch64 build starts but
outside the runtime container, and an x86-64 Linux build doesn't start
because the x86-64 Steam Linux Runtime 4.0 isn't installed. The inspect note
for x86-64 Linux builds now says so.

- Links to localhost need FRAME_CONTROL_LOCAL_LINKS=1: otherwise any website's
link could make the app fetch from services on this computer.
- Title staging folders (unzipped titles) carry the server's PID and are swept
on the next start like download folders, so quitting mid-install doesn't leave
gigabytes behind.
- An install from a link refreshes Sideloaded titles.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- frame_apk: android: attributes win over same-named attributes in
other namespaces; string attributes that keep only a typed value (no
raw string) still resolve; a failed icon read leaves the icon out
instead of failing the install.
- The clipboard IPC origin check can't throw on odd frame URLs.
- fetch-deps.js: 60 s download timeout, at most 5 redirects, a SystemRoot
fallback for tar.exe, and prunes pydoc_data, venv and the static
libpython.
- Docs keep the clipboard-tool note for running the UI in a browser.

Combines the three feature branches on bundle-deps. Conflicts in server.py,
index.html, preload.js, README and test_server.py keep both sides. The
web-install downloader now uses urllib's default HTTPS context, so the
bundled CA list from 770f26c applies to it on Windows too.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Dropping a game's .zip, folder or .exe on Send to Frame now adds it to the
headset's Steam library through Valve's SteamOS Devkit title path, with the
runtime picked from the program's header: Windows PE -> Proton Experimental
(steam_play=1), aarch64 ELF -> SteamLinuxRuntime_4-arm64, x86-64 ELF ->
SteamLinuxRuntime_4 (through FEX). Other architectures are refused.
- frame/devkit-utils: Valve's devkit-utils vendored unmodified (MIT,
steamos-devkit v0.20260925.1), synced to ~/devkit-utils by stamp, bundled in
the app and compiled in CI.
- ui/frame_titles.py: inspect (safe unzip, ELF/PE classification, launch
target ranking), install(path, name=None, exe=None, runtime=None,
progress=None), list, launch, remove, plus a CLI.
- ui/server.py: /api/titles (inspect/install/discard/launch/remove),
/api/titles/job progress, and an upload mode 'title'.
- ui/index.html: confirm dialog (name, launch target, runtime), install
progress, and a Sideloaded titles list with Launch and Remove. The app's
preload passes a dropped folder's path.
- tests and docs/sideloading.md. Device-side behaviour is inferred from
Valve's source; the headset was offline, so none of it has been checked on
a Frame yet.

A site can link to frame-control://install?manifest=URL (or ?url=URL) to
install a title with Frame Control. Manifests use FrameDrop's format, so
framedrop.install/v1 is accepted as well as frame-control.install/v1.
- app/install-link.js parses links; main.js registers the scheme (plus
electron-builder protocols for Info.plist and the .desktop file), takes
links from open-url, second-instance argv and the first argv, and holds
them until the page asks for them through preload's onInstallLink.
- ui/frame_webinstall.py checks the URLs (HTTPS only; localhost over http
only when the link itself is local; no userinfo; every address public,
rechecked on redirects and pinned for the connection), reads the
manifest, downloads with a size cap and sha256 check, and dispatch()
sends .apk to frame_android and .zip/.exe to frame_titles when present.
- server.py adds /api/webinstall/check, start, job and cancel behind the
existing Host and X-Frame-UI guards; a start needs a one-time id from
check. Downloads stop on cancel and on shutdown, and leftovers from a
killed server are swept by PID.
- index.html asks before anything downloads (name, source host, file,
type, size, whether a sha256 was given) and shows progress.
- docs/web-install.md, docs/install.html (landing page, unpublished).

The bundled Python only trusts roots already in the Windows certificate
store, which Windows fills lazily, so on a new install Steam store
search, F-Droid downloads and the compat DB failed with
CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED. fetch-deps.js now also bundles curl's pinned
copy of Mozilla's CA list, and the server adds it to the default HTTPS
context on top of the system certificates (before any urlopen, since
urllib keeps the context it first builds).

connect.sh and frame_connect.py now try Valve's steamos-devkit-service
first: GET /properties.json for the login user, then POST /register with
a new RSA key (~/.ssh/id_rsa_frame_devkit, the only type it accepts), so
the user approves a prompt in the headset instead of typing a password.
Port 32000 closed, a timeout or a 403 falls back to the existing
password copy. The Host frame block lists both keys; a host counts as
found if port 22 or 32000 answers; with no host given, dns-sd or
avahi-browse look for _steamos-devkit._tcp. Inferred from Valve's
source, not yet verified on a Frame.

chromium-xr.sh steam adds a non-Steam shortcut through Steam's DevTools
port. Chrome's flags move into frame/chromium-xr/launch.sh, which both the
shortcut and launch run.

- 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.

From the SWE-2 Max review of the Chromium XR results: note that the
unauthenticated DevTools port is tailnet-reachable with userspace
Tailscale, say the SO_PEERCRED patch is inert while launch disables
seccomp, link panel-on-frame.sh to the script, and describe the disk
guard accurately.

- 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.

- lxterminal and tilix take the command as one string after -e.
- Refuse quotes and % in Windows terminal commands instead of a bogus escape.
- frame_connect validates FRAME_ALIAS and FRAME_USER before writing ~/.ssh/config.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- 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.

- Without the maintainer's key, Android compatibility reports stay on the
Mac and the UI says so; the shared database is never contacted.
- Remove personal infrastructure details from scripts and docs: the Drive
folder and gog wrapper now come from the environment, and the Chromium
build host is required instead of defaulted.
- Add an MIT license, tester instructions in the README, and bump to 0.2.0.

Live in the headset view now streams video instead of polling stereo
screenshots (~2 fps). SteamVR's steamvr-v4l2cam.service mirrors the headset
view into /dev/video99; ffmpeg on the Frame encodes it with x264 (720p30 by
default, AUD + repeated SPS/PPS), /api/stream relays the raw H.264 over SSH,
and the page splits it on access unit delimiters and decodes it with
WebCodecs into the existing viewer. Capture still takes a stereo still; the
desktop panel keeps capture polling, and the page falls back to it if the
video can't start.
The remote ffmpeg runs under a shell that kills it when the SSH channel
closes, stderr goes to a temp file, and a 10 s stall ends the stream. One
stream at a time; a new one supersedes the last.
