# Steam Hardware Watch Status
Last updated: `2026-07-11`
Last updated: `2026-07-20`
## Best Current Answer
- `Price`: Steam Controller remains confirmed by official Valve store APIs at `$99.00` in the US. Steam Machine is confirmed public in the Valve store API, starting at `$1,049.00` in the US and `£879.00` in the UK. Steam Frame still has no confirmed public price.
- `Release date`: Steam Controller remains confirmed with release date `May 4, 2026` and package `1558609`. Steam Machine is confirmed with release date `Jun 30, 2026` in the US API / `30 Jun, 2026` in the UK API. Steam Frame still exposes only `Coming soon`.
- `Same-time launch`: same-day availability for the full trio is ruled out. Steam Controller is public and purchasable, Steam Machine is public with packages/package group/prices/date, and Steam Frame still has no public package, package group, price, or exact availability.
- `2026-07-20 Frame check`: no new Steam Frame launch-readiness movement since the July 16/17 backend package change. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages, package group, or price; Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`; SteamKit/PICS changenumbers are unchanged at `37298233` / `37298229`; and SteamDB still shows both Frame packages as `private_exists_only` with `16 July 2026` last-record updates. Komodo Frame is unchanged at `2026-07-03T15:56:30`, while Komodo Machine moved again to `2026-07-20T14:27:32`. SteamTracking source is `7fed97457fb2ad2eee35401ea775e962acc56e59`; `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` moved to `1784323984`, but `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` and `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not move, and normalized hardware-signal comparison versus `2026-07-17` showed `0` semantic additions/removals. Customs still has no newer relevant rows beyond the `2026-07-15` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows and `2026-07-14` controller row.
- `2026-07-17 Frame check`: Steam Frame has real backend package movement, but not public launch readiness yet. SteamKit/PICS shows Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` moved from changenumber `35672606` to `37298233` / `37298229`; SteamDB corroborates `16 July 2026 - 03:50:58 UTC` and `16 July 2026 - 03:50:44 UTC` last-record updates, still `private_exists_only`. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages, package group, or price, and both Frame packages still return `packagedetails success:false`. Komodo Frame is unchanged at `2026-07-03T15:56:30`. Supporting signals also moved: all four Machine packages moved minutes earlier as a comparator cluster; SteamTracking advanced to `24d3ab943a5f6087473115087fbb4435cadca270` with mostly Machine compatibility additions, `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved to `1784145295` while `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change, and customs now includes three `2026-07-15` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows.
- `2026-07-13 Frame check`: no Steam Frame launch-readiness movement in the primary gates. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages, package groups, or price; Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`; SteamKit/PICS changenumbers are unchanged; SteamDB still shows both Frame packages as `private_exists_only`; and Komodo Frame remains at `2026-07-03T15:56:30` with only the old wishlist section / old `Frame_BG.png`. SteamTracking stayed at `292afdbd449f44b4988e5c0423d90bf1c564ad7c`, ARM64 beta/publicbeta manifests did not move, and `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change. Supporting logistics: customs now includes a new `2026-07-10` `WIRELESS PC CONTROLLER, XXXXXX` row from `CHENG UEI PRECISION IND. CO LTD` to `VALVE CORPORATION` (`20 PKG`, `6410 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBHKGCHI267009`), which is controller logistics rather than Frame launch readiness.
- `2026-07-11 Frame check`: no Steam Frame launch-readiness movement in the primary gates. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages, package groups, or price; Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`; SteamKit/PICS changenumbers are unchanged; SteamDB still shows both Frame packages as `private_exists_only`; and Komodo Frame remains at `2026-07-03T15:56:30` with only the old wishlist section / old `Frame_BG.png`. Supporting signals: a new `2026-07-09` customs row appeared for `HMD+VR CONTROLLER ACCESSORY, XXXXXX` from `CHENG UEI PRECISION IND. CO LTD` to `VALVE CORPORATION` (`9 PKG`, `1656 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBHKGLBG267012`); `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved to `1783717985`, but `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change; and normalized SteamTracking comparison added Steam Machine compatibility UI strings, which looks like Machine software/support polish rather than Frame launch readiness.
- `2026-07-10 Frame check`: Steam Frame still has no public launch-readiness movement in the primary gates. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages, package groups, or price; Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`; SteamKit/PICS changenumbers are unchanged; SteamDB still shows both Frame packages as `private_exists_only`; and Komodo Frame remains at `2026-07-03T15:56:30` with only the old wishlist section / old `Frame_BG.png`. Supporting signals did move: SteamTracking advanced to `319a0a9d08aaa4c700914f0224372e41eaf4e29b` and added semantic Steam Frame Wireless Adapter troubleshooting / airplane-mode dialog strings and skip settings; `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved to `1783556394`, but `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change. Customs now includes newer `2026-07-08` and `2026-07-07` rows, including one `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` shipment and multiple `GAME CONSOLE` shipments. Steam Machine app `4165910` and package `1629446` moved in SteamKit/PICS post-launch; treat that as comparator/background unless it later connects to Frame.
- `2026-07-08 Frame check`: no Steam Frame launch-readiness movement in the primary gates. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages, package groups, or price; Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`; SteamKit/PICS changenumbers are unchanged; SteamDB still shows both Frame packages as `private_exists_only`; and Komodo Frame remains at `2026-07-03T15:56:30` with only the old wishlist section / old `Frame_BG.png`. Supporting background movement did appear in SteamTracking: source advanced to `5f07ded044d4a83a4d53fa68966b9c978821ae55`, `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` moved to `1783475136`, and `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved to `1783376539`; however `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change and a normalized SteamTracking hardware-signal diff versus `2026-07-06` had `0` semantic additions/removals. Customs still has no newer relevant rows beyond `2026-07-01`.

# Run Note: 2026-06-24
## Summary
- Focused Steam Frame check completed after Steam Machine launch.
- No public Steam Frame readiness change appeared:
- Valve API: app `4165890` still `Coming soon`, no packages, no package groups, no price.
- Valve package API: watched Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still `packagedetails success:false`.
- SteamKit/PICS: Frame app `4165890` unchanged at `35675573`; Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` unchanged at `35672606`.
- SteamDB: Frame packages remain private/existence-only with last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`.
- Komodo Frame is unchanged: product modified timestamp remains `2026-05-27T16:53:46`, only the old wishlist section/media are exposed, and no new Frame sections/media appeared.
- SteamTracking updated to commit `5d3d8b2c150f1688f6e5a4ce0c1c6ace8e4285e6` (`2026-06-24T03:19:32Z`). Frame pairing/compatibility strings remain present, but the reported deltas look like line-number/localization churn rather than a new launch-readiness signal.
- Customs shipment report is available with `39` relevant rows, but no newer high-signal rows appeared; newest VR-labelled rows remain `2026-06-17`.
- Steam Machine continued to move post-launch in SteamKit/PICS and Komodo, but that is not a Frame launch signal.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Reachable.
- Product modified timestamps:
- Controller: `2026-06-23T15:54:29`
- Machine: `2026-06-24T16:12:21`
- Frame: `2026-05-27T16:53:46`
- Frame sections:
- `413804`, `413801`, `JA - Steam Frame Wishlist`, modified `2025-11-12T14:09:51`
- Frame media:
- `Frame_BG.png`, modified `2025-11-11T15:25:52`
- No new Steam Frame section/media staging appeared.
### SteamDB
- Challenge-prone overall, but package table was collected.
- Frame package rows:
- `1629484`: last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`, possible app `4165890:Steam Frame`, status `private_exists_only`.
- `1629486`: last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`, possible app `4165890:Steam Frame`, status `private_exists_only`.
- No new SteamDB Frame package-history movement.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- Source moved from `d8c88a286f382752aa90b7dd5a9aa057db78a077` (`2026-06-19T23:33:59Z`) to `5d3d8b2c150f1688f6e5a4ce0c1c6ace8e4285e6` (`2026-06-24T03:19:32Z`).
- Frame strings remain present around:
- `WelcomeToSteamFrame`
- `skip_steamframe_pairing_dialog`
- `controller_steamframe_pair`
- `SteamFrameWirelessAdapterDialog_*`
- `Settings_RemotePlay_WifiAPSection`
- `Settings_Internet_Limit_Connection_Lower_Bands`
- `steamFrameVerifiedApps`
- `LibraryTab_FrameVerified`
- `k_EAppTestType_SteamFrameCompatibilityReview`
- Comparison output includes Frame lines, but they appear to be line-number/localization churn rather than new product/package/date/price exposure.
- ARM64 public beta manifest moved to `1782257239`, but `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change. The dedicated beta manifest stayed unchanged at `1781223733`.
### SteamVR Depots
- SteamDB SteamVR depot page remained blocked/challenged.
- Public SteamVR news metadata still has latest item `Introducing SteamVR 2.16` from `2026-06-02T18:59:37Z`.
- No fresh Frame-specific SteamVR depot signal was collected.
### SteamOS Package Mirror
- Reachable.
- Frame-related/default hits remain indirect only:
- `holo-3.8 fremont-hw-support 20260506.1-1`
- `holo-main fremont-hw-support 20260506.1-1`
- `holo-main holo-realtek-firmware-toggles 1.1-1`
- No direct `Steam Frame`, `Deckard`, `Roy`, Snapdragon, or new product-specific namespace appeared.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Public Valve APIs unchanged for Frame:
- App `4165890`: public metadata, `Coming soon`, no packages, no package groups, no price.
- Package `1629484`: `packagedetails success:false`.
- Package `1629486`: `packagedetails success:false`.
- Steam Machine remains public with package group and prices; Machine package movement should be treated as post-launch Machine churn, not a Frame signal.
### Customs / Regulatory
- Customs shipment report available.
- Relevant shipment count: `39`.
- No newer high-signal rows appeared versus the prior run.
- Newest captured Frame-relevant logistics rows remain the `2026-06-17` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows:
- `SNHBSHACHI265224`, `42 PKG`, `6464 Kgs`
- `SNHBSHALAX265223`, `42 PKG`, `6467 Kgs`
- `SNHBSHACHI265216`, `42 PKG`, `6406 Kgs`
- These remain logistics corroboration only and do not prove Frame launch timing.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: no public Steam Frame price.
- Release date: no public Steam Frame date; still `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: no. Steam Machine launched publicly; Steam Frame remains private/no package group.
## Next Checks
- Continue watching SteamKit/PICS for any movement on Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484` / `1629486`.
- Watch Valve `appdetails` / `packagedetails` for package, package group, price, or purchase-state exposure.
- Watch Komodo for new Frame sections/media analogous to the Machine staging sequence.
- Treat SteamTracking Frame strings as useful readiness context, but require package/API movement before calling it a launch signal.

# Run Note: 2026-06-25
## Summary
- Ran the Frame-focused watcher and compared against `2026-06-24`.
- Verdict: no public Steam Frame readiness change detected.
- Primary Frame readiness checks stayed unchanged:
- Valve app `4165890`: public metadata only, still `Coming soon`, no packages, no package groups, no price.
- Valve packages `1629484`, `1629486`: still `packagedetails success:false`.
- SteamKit/PICS Frame app `4165890`: changenumber `35675573`, unchanged.
- SteamKit/PICS Frame packages `1629484`, `1629486`: changenumber `35672606`, unchanged.
- SteamDB Frame packages `1629484`, `1629486`: still `private_exists_only`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`.
- Komodo Frame product timestamp: still `2026-05-27T16:53:46`.
- Notable context: SteamTracking updated to commit `8dadd688e7c5b7ec08e73095ebd79afd4fdfee18` from `2026-06-25T02:29:29Z`, and both `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` and `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved. The hardware-specific `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` block did not change, and the Frame string deltas are line-number churn rather than new semantic strings.
- Customs rows were captured again. No newer rows appeared beyond the existing `2026-06-17` VR/game-console/controller shipment rows.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Available, not blocked.
- Product timestamps:
- Controller: `2026-06-23T15:54:29`
- Machine: `2026-06-25T12:21:49`
- Frame: `2026-05-27T16:53:46`
- Machine product timestamp moved again; Frame did not.
- Frame still has one old section and one old media row. No new Frame sections/media/manuals/videos appeared.
### SteamDB
- Package-page report was generated, though the run also recorded SteamDB errors/challenge state.
- Frame packages remain unchanged:
- `1629484`: last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`, `private_exists_only`.
- `1629486`: last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`, `private_exists_only`.
- Machine packages remain public/details_available as post-launch comparator rows.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- Source moved from commit `5d3d8b2c150f1688f6e5a4ce0c1c6ace8e4285e6` (`2026-06-24T03:19:32Z`) to `8dadd688e7c5b7ec08e73095ebd79afd4fdfee18` (`2026-06-25T02:29:29Z`).
- Frame signal report still contains the known setup/pairing/compatibility surface:
- `WelcomeToSteamFrame`
- `skip_steamframe_pairing_dialog`
- `controller_steamframe_pair`
- `SteamFrameWirelessAdapterDialog_*`
- `k_EAppTestType_SteamFrameCompatibilityReview`
- `steamFrameVerifiedApps`
- Comparison against `2026-06-24` showed Frame signal line-number shifts, not new substantive Frame strings.
- ARM64 client manifests moved:
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64`: `1781223733` -> `1782330129`
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64`: `1782257239` -> `1782344391`
- Changed ARM64 blocks include `bins_linuxarm64`, `steam_linuxarm64`, and runtime blocks. `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` stayed unchanged in both beta and publicbeta.
### SteamVR Depots
- SteamVR depot metadata was partially blocked.
- No new Frame-specific SteamVR depot signal surfaced in the default report.
- The only Frame-focus SteamVR line was old Steam Link VR context from `2025-09-26`, not a new Steam Frame launch signal.
### SteamOS Package Mirror
- SteamOS mirror was reachable.
- Existing `fremont-hw-support 20260506.1-1` remains present in `holo-3.8` and `holo-main`.
- No direct `Steam Frame`, `Deckard`, `Roy`, ARM/Snapdragon, or new product-specific repo namespace appeared.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Valve endpoints were reachable.
- Public API status:
- Frame app `4165890`: public, `Coming soon`, `packages=`, `package_groups=0`, no price.
- Frame package `1629484`: private, `packagedetails success:false`.
- Frame package `1629486`: private, `packagedetails success:false`.
- Machine packages remain public and are only comparator/background now.
### Customs / Regulatory
- Customs shipment rows were captured with partial source errors.
- Newest relevant rows remain the existing `2026-06-17` arrivals:
- Three `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, each `42 PKG`, around `6406-6467 Kgs`.
- Two `GAME CONSOLE` rows to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, each `42 PKG`, around `12554-12698 Kgs`.
- One `WIRELESS PC CONTROLLER` row to `VALVE CORPORATION`.
- No newer shipment rows appeared in this run.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: no change. Steam Frame still has no public price.
- Release date: no change. Steam Frame still exposes only `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: already ruled out. Today reinforces that Frame remains behind Machine in public package/store readiness.
## Next Checks
- Continue Frame-first checks of SteamKit/PICS and Valve `appdetails` / `packagedetails`.
- Watch for any movement in Frame app `4165890` or packages `1629484`, `1629486`.
- Treat ARM64 client movement as context until it connects to Frame package/API movement, public pages, or new Frame-specific strings.
- Keep watching VR-labelled shipment rows for corroboration, but do not treat them as launch timing proof.

- Additional background movement: all four Steam Machine packages moved again in SteamKit/PICS and SteamDB on `2026-06-27` around `22:06 UTC`. This is post-launch Machine churn, not a Frame signal.
- SteamTracking used a fresh checkout at commit `94700ae06b85d54b262bf6ce8e4607eaca293876` (`2026-06-27T04:43:47Z`) after the old `/tmp/SteamTracking-master` checkout was found to have an incomplete `.git` directory.

# Run Note: 2026-06-29
## Summary
- Ran the Frame-focused watcher and compared against `2026-06-28`.
- Verdict after manual review: no public Steam Frame readiness change.
- The generated Frame focus report flagged Komodo site staging because the Frame product `modified` timestamp moved from `2026-05-27T16:53:46` to `2026-06-29T12:11:28`.
- Raw JSON diff shows this is timestamp-only for Frame: after removing `modified` / `modified_gmt`, `product-frame-jpy.json` is identical to the `2026-06-28` snapshot.
- Primary Frame readiness checks stayed unchanged:
- Valve app `4165890`: public metadata only, still `Coming soon`, no packages, no package groups, no price.
- Valve packages `1629484`, `1629486`: still `packagedetails success:false`.
- SteamKit/PICS Frame app `4165890`: changenumber `35675573`, unchanged.
- SteamKit/PICS Frame packages `1629484`, `1629486`: changenumber `35672606`, unchanged.

- Frame: `2026-06-29T12:11:28`
- Frame raw product diff versus `2026-06-28` showed no selected field/content/class/category/tag change after excluding `modified` / `modified_gmt`.
- Frame still has only:
- section `413804`, `JA - Steam Frame Wishlist`, modified `2025-11-12T14:09:51`
- media `413733`, `frame_bg`, `Frame_BG.png`, modified `2025-11-11T15:25:52`
- Treat the Frame Komodo movement as timestamp-only unless later corroborated.
### SteamDB
- Package-page report was generated.
- Frame packages remain unchanged:
- `1629484`: last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`, `private_exists_only`.

- Watch for any movement in Frame app `4165890` or packages `1629484`, `1629486`.
- If Komodo Frame timestamp moves again, diff raw JSON and sections/media before treating it as staging.
- Keep watching whether June 24 VR shipment rows are followed by public package/API movement.

# Run Note: 2026-07-03
## Summary
- Steam Frame has meaningful Komodo site-prep movement, but no public Steam package/store readiness yet.
- Later same-day recheck confirmed the launch gates still have not flipped.
- Komodo Frame product `modified` moved to `2026-07-03T15:56:30`; unlike the prior timestamp-only update, this changed product fields: `featured_media` moved from `413708` to `456489`, the excerpt removed the inline `frameLogo.svg`, and the new featured media is `source_SF_headsetControllers_front_2.jpg` dated/modified `2026-07-03T15:54:53`.
- Valve, SteamKit/PICS, and SteamDB still show Frame app `4165890` as public `Coming soon` only, with packages `1629484` and `1629486` still private / existence-only.
- Fresh shipment rows appeared for `2026-07-01`: one `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` row and two `GAME CONSOLE` rows from `TECH-FRONT (CHONGQING) COMPUTER CO` to `CEVA C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Unblocked.
- Product timestamps:
- Controller: `2026-07-03T15:38:38`
- Machine: `2026-07-02T15:16:57`
- Frame: `2026-07-03T15:56:30`
- Frame product diff versus `2026-07-01`:
- `featured_media`: `413708` -> `456489`
- featured media endpoint: `https://komodostation.com/wp-json/wp/v2/media/456489`
- fetched via trusted browser: `source_SF_headsetControllers_front_2.jpg`, `image/jpeg`, dated/modified `2026-07-03T15:54:53`
- excerpt removed the inline `frameLogo.svg` image; text/list content stayed the same.
- Frame sections and section media did not change: still one old wishlist section and old `Frame_BG.png`.
### SteamDB
- Usable for watched packages on the later same-day recheck.
- Frame packages:
- `1629484`: `private_exists_only`, changenumber `35672606`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`
- `1629486`: `private_exists_only`, changenumber `35672606`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`
- No SteamDB package-page movement for Frame.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- Source updated to commit `17c15d162dbb19ea40d0ae757401323edfe2fec8` (`2026-07-02T22:21:06Z`).
- Existing Frame setup/pairing/compatibility strings remain present, including `WelcomeToSteamFrame`, `controller_steamframe_pair`, `SteamFrameWirelessAdapterDialog_*`, `steamFrameVerifiedApps`, and `LibraryTab_FrameVerified`.
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` did not move: version `1782442097`.
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved from `1782437068` to `1783028805`; `bins_linuxarm64`, `steam_linuxarm64`, and `runtime_steamrt_linuxarm64` changed.
- `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change, so this is background ARM64 client movement rather than direct hardware readiness.
### SteamVR Depots
- SteamDB depot metadata was blocked by a challenge page.
- Public SteamVR news metadata did not produce a new Frame-specific signal.
### SteamOS Package Mirror
- No direct Frame launch signal.
- Relevant package names still include `fremont-hw-support`, `holo-realtek-firmware-toggles`, `foxnet`, and related firmware packages.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Frame app `4165890`: public metadata only, `Coming soon`, no price, no packages, no package groups.
- Frame packages:
- `1629484`: private, `packagedetails success:false`
- `1629486`: private, `packagedetails success:false`
- SteamKit/PICS:
- Frame app `4165890`: changenumber `35675573`, unchanged
- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486`: changenumber `35672606`, unchanged
### Customs / Regulatory
- Partial source coverage: several ImportInfo searches failed, but the local report captured relevant rows.
- Newest rows include:
- `2026-07-01`, `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES`, `42 PKG`, `6433 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHACHI266113`
- `2026-07-01`, `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `12541 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHALAX266103`
- `2026-07-01`, `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `12681 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHACHI266076`
- Treat as logistics corroboration only.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: still unconfirmed for Steam Frame.
- Release date: still unconfirmed for Steam Frame; Valve remains `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: already ruled out; Frame remains separate from the now-public Controller/Machine state.
## Next Checks
- Recheck SteamKit/PICS and Valve `appdetails` / `packagedetails` first.
- Watch whether Komodo follows the featured-media/product change with new Frame sections, public product tags, videos, manuals, or support sections.
- Keep monitoring VR-labelled shipment rows as corroboration.
- Treat ARM64 publicbeta movement as background unless `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` changes or new Frame strings appear.

# Run Note: 2026-07-06
## Summary
- No new Steam Frame launch-readiness movement was detected.
- The primary launch gates remain closed: Valve app/package APIs show no public Frame package, package group, price, reservation state, or exact date; SteamKit/PICS changenumbers for Frame app/package IDs are unchanged; SteamDB still shows the Frame packages as private existence-only records.
- Komodo remains on the July 3 Frame staging state with no follow-up sections, media, manuals, videos, or support-doc movement.
- Customs still shows the newest relevant VR/game-console rows at `2026-07-01`; no newer relevant shipment rows appeared in this pass.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Unblocked.
- Frame product `modified` remains `2026-07-03T15:56:30`.
- Frame sections remain unchanged: one old `JA - Steam Frame Wishlist` section from `2025-11-12`.
- Frame section media remains unchanged: old `Frame_BG.png` from `2025-11-11`.
- Visual asset retrieval found `453` candidates, retrieved `412`, and left `41` blocked assets. No new Frame asset changed the launch-readiness picture.
### SteamDB
- Partially blocked: the Controller app page hit a SteamDB challenge, but the watched reservation-package table was captured.
- Frame package `1629484`: `private_exists_only`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`.

- No Frame package-page movement versus the previous run.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- Source remained at `/tmp/SteamTracking-master` commit `d7f9e6423a61e5e00dea911fce64233765aca379` (`2026-07-04T00:48:46Z`); no fast-forward update was available.
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` stayed at version `1782442097`.

- `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change.
- Existing Frame setup, pairing, wireless-adapter, and compatibility strings are still present, but no new semantic Frame client/backend signal appeared versus the prior baseline.
### SteamVR Depots
- SteamDB depot page for SteamVR app `250820` was challenge-blocked.
- Public metadata/local-hit output did not add a direct Frame launch signal.
### SteamOS Package Mirror
- Unblocked.
- Existing `fremont-hw-support` rows remain visible in `holo-3.8` and `holo-main`.
- No new Steam Frame, Deckard, Roy, XR, VR, ARM64, wireless-adapter, or controller-specific package signal was detected.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Unblocked.
- Frame app `4165890` remains public metadata only, `Coming soon`, with `packages=`, `package_groups=0`, and no price.
- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`.
- No public package, reservation, purchase, price, or exact-date marker appeared.
### Customs / Regulatory
- Partial: ImportInfo source fetches reported failures, but the run retained parsed shipment rows.
- Newest relevant rows remain:
- `2026-07-01` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES`, `42 PKG`, `6433 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHACHI266113`.

- Customs remains corroborating logistics evidence only; it does not confirm launch timing or SKU identity.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: unchanged. Steam Frame still has no confirmed public price.
- Release date: unchanged. Steam Frame still exposes only `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: unchanged. Same-day trio launch remains ruled out because Controller and Machine are public while Frame remains private/unpriced/undated.
## Next Checks
- Recheck SteamKit/PICS and Valve `appdetails` / `packagedetails` first.
- Watch Komodo for follow-up Frame sections, media, manuals, videos, support docs, or product tags after the July 3 staging.
- Keep monitoring VR-labelled shipments as corroboration, especially any rows newer than `2026-07-01`.
- Retry SteamVR depot metadata through a trusted SteamDB session only if a separate Frame signal makes that worth the friction.

## Summary
- No Steam Frame launch-readiness movement was detected in the primary gates.
- Valve app/package APIs, SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB package pages, and Komodo all remain closed/unchanged for Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484`, `1629486`.
- Supporting background movement did appear in SteamTracking: source advanced to `5f07ded044d4a83a4d53fa68966b9c978821ae55`, and both ARM64 beta/publicbeta client manifests moved. The hardware-specific `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` block did not change, and a normalized hardware-signal diff versus `2026-07-06` had `0` semantic additions/removals.

# Run Note: 2026-07-10
## Summary
- Steam Frame still has no public launch-readiness movement in the primary gates.
- Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484`, `1629486` are unchanged across Valve APIs, SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB package rows, and Komodo.
- Two supporting Frame-relevant signals did move: SteamTracking added Steam Frame Wireless Adapter troubleshooting / airplane-mode dialog strings and skip settings, and customs added newer July 7/8 rows including one `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` shipment.
- Steam Machine app/package metadata moved post-launch in SteamKit/PICS, with SteamDB corroboration for package `1629446`. Treat this as comparator/background unless it later connects to Frame.
- The first July 10 run failed under the sandbox because browser process inspection/cleanup and GitHub DNS were blocked. The same watcher was rerun with approval and completed successfully.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Unblocked on the escalated rerun.
- Frame product `modified` remains `2026-07-03T15:56:30`.

- Machine package `1629446`: post-launch movement corroborated with last record update `8 July 2026 - 22:51:58 UTC`, changenumber `37129417`.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- Source advanced from `5f07ded044d4a83a4d53fa68966b9c978821ae55` to `319a0a9d08aaa4c700914f0224372e41eaf4e29b` (`2026-07-10T04:44:11Z`).
- Normalized `steamtracking-hardware-signals.tsv` comparison versus `2026-07-08`, ignoring line numbers, showed `35` semantic additions and `1` removal.

### SteamOS Package Mirror
- Unblocked.
- Existing `fremont-hw-support` rows remain visible in `holo-3.8` and `holo-main`.

- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` still return `packagedetails success:false`.
- No public package, reservation, purchase, price, or exact-date marker appeared.
### Customs / Regulatory
- Partial: ImportInfo source fetches reported failures, but the run retained parsed shipment rows.

- Customs remains corroborating logistics evidence only; it does not confirm launch timing or final SKU identity.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: unchanged. Steam Frame still has no confirmed public price.
- Release date: unchanged. Steam Frame still exposes only `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: unchanged. Same-day trio launch remains ruled out because Controller and Machine are public while Frame remains private/unpriced/undated.
## Next Checks
- Recheck SteamKit/PICS and Valve `appdetails` / `packagedetails` first.
- Watch whether the new Wireless Adapter troubleshooting strings are followed by Frame package/API movement, Komodo sections/media, or support docs.
- Watch Komodo for follow-up Frame sections, media, manuals, videos, support docs, or product tags after the July 3 staging.
- Keep monitoring VR-labelled shipments as corroboration, especially any rows newer than `2026-07-08`.

# Run Note: 2026-07-13
## Summary
- Ran `scripts/run_frame_watch.sh 2026-07-13` after restoring a missing SteamTracking checkout with a shallow clone at `/tmp/SteamTracking-shallow-20260713`.
- Bottom line: no Steam Frame launch-readiness movement in the primary gates.
- Main new row: customs now includes a `2026-07-10` Valve-bound `WIRELESS PC CONTROLLER, XXXXXX` shipment from `CHENG UEI PRECISION IND. CO LTD`.
- This is controller logistics corroboration, not a Frame readiness signal.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Unblocked for this run.
- Frame product `modified` remains `2026-07-03T15:56:30`.
- Frame sections remain one old `JA - Steam Frame Wishlist` row.
- Frame media remains old `Frame_BG.png`.
- Visual asset counts were unchanged: `453` discovered, `411` retrieved, `42` blocked.
### SteamDB
- Watched reservation-package table was captured without SteamDB package blocking.
- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` remain `private_exists_only`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`.
- SteamDB noise in the comparison report is controller app/history path churn, not Frame package movement.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- The first run attempt failed because `/tmp/SteamTracking-master` was missing.
- Restored source coverage using shallow checkout `/tmp/SteamTracking-shallow-20260713`.
- SteamTracking source stayed at `292afdbd449f44b4988e5c0423d90bf1c564ad7c` (`2026-07-10T22:51:13Z`), `updated=no`.
- No new Frame-focused SteamTracking semantic signal appeared versus `2026-07-11`.
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` stayed at `1783475136`.
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` stayed at `1783717985`.
- `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change in beta or publicbeta.
### SteamVR Depots
- SteamDB SteamVR depot metadata page was challenge-blocked.
- Public changelog/local-scan outputs produced no new Frame signal; latest visible SteamVR changelog item remains SteamVR `2.16` from `2026-06-02`.
### SteamOS Package Mirror
- No material Frame launch signal found.
- Existing watch rows such as `fremont-hw-support 20260506.1-1`, `holo-realtek-firmware-toggles 1.1-1`, and `foxnet 1.5-4` remain visible.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Frame app `4165890`: public metadata only, `Coming soon`, no packages, no package group, no price.
- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486`: still private, `packagedetails success:false`.
- SteamKit/PICS showed no watched changenumber movement: Frame app remains `35675573`; Frame packages remain `35672606`.
### Customs / Regulatory
- Latest relevant row: `2026-07-10` `VALVE CORPORATION` from `CHENG UEI PRECISION IND. CO LTD`, `WIRELESS PC CONTROLLER, XXXXXX`, `20 PKG`, `6410 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBHKGCHI267009`.
- Existing newest rows also include the `2026-07-09` `HMD+VR CONTROLLER ACCESSORY` shipment, the `2026-07-08` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` shipment, and multiple July 7-8 `GAME CONSOLE` rows.
- Some ImportInfo source searches failed, so customs status is partial. ImportGenius rows were still captured.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: unchanged. Steam Frame still has no public price.
- Release date: unchanged. Steam Frame still exposes only `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: unchanged and already ruled out; this run adds no evidence that Frame is about to flip in public store/package gates.
## Next Checks
- Keep the current primary checks: Valve app/package API, SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB package history, Komodo product/sections/media, SteamTracking normalized diffs, ARM64 manifests, and customs.
- Watch for any Frame package movement from `private_exists_only` / `packagedetails success:false` to visible package details.
- Treat further controller-labelled shipment rows as Controller logistics unless they coincide with Frame package/API/Komodo movement.

# Run Note: 2026-07-17
## Summary
- Ran `scripts/run_frame_watch.sh 2026-07-17 runs /tmp/SteamTracking-shallow-20260713`.
- Bottom line: Steam Frame has real backend package movement, but public store/package readiness is still not confirmed.
- High-signal change: Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` moved in SteamKit/PICS from changenumber `35672606` to `37298233` / `37298229`; SteamDB corroborates last-record updates on `16 July 2026` around `03:50 UTC`.
- Valve public endpoints still show Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon`, with no packages/package group/price, and both Frame packages still return `packagedetails success:false`.
- Supporting logistics: three new `2026-07-15` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` shipment rows appeared.
## Source Checks
### Komodo
- Unblocked for this run.
- Frame product `modified` remains `2026-07-03T15:56:30`.
- Frame sections remain one old `JA - Steam Frame Wishlist` row.
- Frame media remains old `Frame_BG.png`.
- Controller product timestamp moved to `2026-07-13T23:18:06`; Machine product timestamp moved to `2026-07-17T18:23:59`, but Frame did not move.
- Visual asset counts: `453` discovered, `409` retrieved, `44` blocked.
### SteamDB
- Watched reservation-package table was captured.
- Frame package `1629484`: last record update `16 July 2026 - 03:50:58 UTC`, changenumber `37298233`, still `private_exists_only`.
- Frame package `1629486`: last record update `16 July 2026 - 03:50:44 UTC`, changenumber `37298229`, still `private_exists_only`.
- Machine packages `1629446`, `1629447`, `1629458`, and `1629460` also moved at `03:44-03:45 UTC` as a launched comparator cluster.
- Controller app page was challenge-blocked, but that did not block the watched package table.
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
- SteamTracking source advanced from `292afdbd449f44b4988e5c0423d90bf1c564ad7c` to `24d3ab943a5f6087473115087fbb4435cadca270` (`2026-07-17T03:55:21Z`).
- Normalized hardware-signal comparison versus `2026-07-13` showed `18` semantic additions and `3` removals.
- The substantive additions were Steam Machine compatibility filter strings, including `MachineVerified_FilterDescription_*`, `FilterElement_SteamMachineVerified`, and `Library_FilterCollectionDescription_SteamMachine`.
- Frame-related differences were mostly line-number/minified-symbol churn around existing Steam Frame compatibility/pairing strings.
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` stayed at `1783475136`.
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved from `1783717985` to `1784145295`.
- `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change in beta or publicbeta.
### SteamVR Depots
- SteamDB SteamVR depot metadata page was challenge-blocked.
- Public changelog/local-scan outputs produced no new Frame signal; latest visible SteamVR changelog item remains SteamVR `2.16` from `2026-06-02`.
### SteamOS Package Mirror
- No material Frame launch signal found.
- `jupiter` firmware package rows moved from `jupiter.20260610.1` to `jupiter.20260712.1`, including `linux-firmware-neptune*` rows.
- Treat this as Deck/Jupiter background unless later evidence connects it to Frame.
### Valve Support / CDN
- Frame app `4165890`: public metadata only, `Coming soon`, no packages, no package group, no price.
- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486`: still private, `packagedetails success:false`.
- SteamKit/PICS showed backend movement for the Frame package IDs, but Valve public endpoints did not expose sale/reservation readiness.
### Customs / Regulatory
- New `2026-07-15` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows from `TECH-FRONT (CHONGQING) COMPUTER CO`:
- `SNHBSHACHI267003` to `CEVA C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, `42 PKG`, `6424 Kgs`.
- `SNHBSHACHI267004` to `CEVA C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, `42 PKG`, `6437 Kgs`.
- `SNHBSHALAX267013` to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, `42 PKG`, `6443 Kgs`.
- New `2026-07-14` `WIRELESS PC CONTROLLER` row: `SNHBHKGLBG267024`, `40 PKG`, `12970 Kgs`.
- Some ImportInfo source searches failed, so customs status is partial. ImportGenius rows were still captured.
## Effect On Key Questions
- Price: unchanged. Steam Frame still has no public price.
- Release date: unchanged. Steam Frame still exposes only `Coming soon`.
- Same-time launch: unchanged and already ruled out. This run increases confidence that Frame backend prep resumed, but not that public launch/reservation is live.
## Next Checks
- Re-run Valve appdetails/packagedetails and SteamKit/PICS first on the next pass.
- Watch whether Frame packages `1629484` / `1629486` move from `private_exists_only` / `packagedetails success:false` to visible package details.
- Watch Komodo Frame for a fresh timestamp, new sections, or new media matching the package movement.
- Treat the July 15 VR shipments as corroboration unless paired with public Valve/Komodo movement.
