## Best Current Answer
|
||||
|
||||
- `Price`: Steam Controller remains confirmed by official Valve store APIs at `$99.00` in the US. Steam Machine is now 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 now 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 now public with packages/package group/prices/date, and Steam Frame still has no public package, package group, price, or exact availability. The Steam Machine watch correctly caught the launch sequence: multi-package backend movement, same-day Komodo page/media staging, then public Valve API exposure.

|
||||
- `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`.
|
||||
- `2026-07-06 Frame check`: no new Steam Frame launch-readiness movement. 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` with `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC` last record updates; and Komodo Frame remains at `2026-07-03T15:56:30` with only the old wishlist section / old `Frame_BG.png`. SteamTracking did not advance from `d7f9e6423a61e5e00dea911fce64233765aca379`, ARM64 manifests did not move, and customs still has no newer relevant rows beyond `2026-07-01`.
|
||||
- `2026-07-05 Frame check`: no new Steam Frame launch-readiness movement since the July 3 Komodo media/product staging. Valve still shows Frame app `4165890` as `Coming soon` with no packages or package groups, 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 one old wishlist section / old `Frame_BG.png`. SteamTracking source advanced to `d7f9e6423a61e5e00dea911fce64233765aca379` (`2026-07-04T00:48:46Z`), but no new Frame package/API/string launch signal appeared.
|
||||
- `2026-07-03 Frame check`: Komodo Frame product staging moved and is not timestamp-only: product `modified` moved to `2026-07-03T15:56:30`, `featured_media` changed from `413708` to `456489`, and the product excerpt removed the inline `frameLogo.svg` image. The new featured media is `source_SF_headsetControllers_front_2.jpg`, dated/modified `2026-07-03T15:54:53`. A later same-day recheck still shows no launch: Valve, SteamKit/PICS, and SteamDB show no public Frame package, package group, price, or exact date. SteamTracking publicbeta ARM64 advanced, but `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change. New `2026-07-01` shipment rows include one `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` row and two `GAME CONSOLE` rows.
|
||||
- `2026-07-01 Frame check`: no public Steam Frame readiness change. Frame app/package rows are unchanged in Valve, SteamKit/PICS, and SteamDB; Komodo Frame timestamp remains `2026-06-29T12:11:28` with unchanged old wishlist section/media; no newer shipment rows appeared. Background movement was limited to Steam Machine app and Steam Controller package metadata.
|
||||
- `2026-06-29 Frame check`: no public Steam Frame readiness change. Komodo Frame product timestamp moved to `2026-06-29T12:11:28`, but raw JSON diff versus `2026-06-28` showed no content/class/category/tag/field change after excluding `modified` / `modified_gmt`; Frame sections and media also remained unchanged. Valve, SteamKit/PICS, and SteamDB all remain unchanged for Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484`, `1629486`.
|
||||
- `2026-06-28 Frame check`: no public Steam Frame readiness change. Valve, SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB, and Komodo all remain unchanged for Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484`, `1629486`. Newer `2026-06-24` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` shipment rows appeared, which is useful logistics corroboration but not launch confirmation.
|
||||
- `2026-06-25 Frame check`: no public Steam Frame readiness change. Valve, SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB, and Komodo all remain unchanged for Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484`, `1629486`. SteamTracking/ARM64 client manifests moved, but without Frame package/API movement or new semantic Frame strings.

## Summary
|
||||
|
||||
- Ran `scripts/run_frame_watch.sh 2026-07-11`.
|
||||
- Bottom line: no Steam Frame launch-readiness movement in the primary gates.
|
||||
- Main new signal: customs now includes a `2026-07-09` Valve-bound `HMD+VR CONTROLLER ACCESSORY, XXXXXX` row from `CHENG UEI PRECISION IND. CO LTD`.
|
||||
- Secondary/background signal: SteamTracking added Steam Machine compatibility UI strings; this looks like post-launch Machine software/support work, not Frame readiness.

- Controller app page was challenge-blocked, but that did not block the watched Frame package readout.
|
||||
|
||||
### SteamTracking / GameTracking
|
||||
|
||||
- Source advanced from `319a0a9d08aaa4c700914f0224372e41eaf4e29b` to `292afdbd449f44b4988e5c0423d90bf1c564ad7c` (`2026-07-10T22:51:13Z`).
|
||||
- Normalized hardware-signal comparison versus `2026-07-10` showed `22` semantic additions and `0` removals.
|
||||
- Additions were Steam Machine compatibility UI strings, including `SteamMachine_CompatibilitySection_Title`, `SteamMachine_CompatibilitySection_Details`, and `SteamMachineVerified_DescriptionHeader_*`.
|
||||
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved from `1783556394` to `1783717985`.
|
||||
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` stayed at `1783475136`.
|
||||
- `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change in beta or publicbeta.
|
||||
|
||||
### SteamVR Depots
|
||||
|
||||
- SteamDB SteamVR depot metadata was challenge-blocked.
|
||||
- Public changelog scraping still showed no newer SteamVR item beyond `2026-06-02T18:59:37Z` / SteamVR `2.16`.
|
||||
|
||||
### 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: `2026-07-09` `VALVE CORPORATION` from `CHENG UEI PRECISION IND. CO LTD`, `HMD+VR CONTROLLER ACCESSORY, XXXXXX`, `9 PKG`, `1656 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBHKGLBG267012`.
|
||||
- Existing newest rows also include 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: already ruled out; this run adds no evidence that Frame is about to flip in the 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 `HMD+VR CONTROLLER ACCESSORY` or `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows as logistics corroboration unless they coincide with Valve/PICS/Komodo movement.
