# Run Note: 2026-07-24

## Summary

- Ran `scripts/run_frame_watch.sh 2026-07-24 runs /tmp/SteamTracking-shallow-20260720`.
- Bottom line: no public Steam Frame launch-readiness movement, but logistics evidence strengthened.
- Primary launch gates remain closed: Valve app/package APIs, SteamKit/PICS, SteamDB package rows, and Komodo are unchanged for Frame app `4165890` and packages `1629484`, `1629486`.
- New customs signal: two `2026-07-22` Valve-bound `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES` rows from Tech-Front now explicitly include `WIFI DONGLE/ADAPTER`.
- SteamTracking advanced and ARM64 beta/publicbeta manifests moved, but `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change and normalized hardware-signal comparison versus `2026-07-21` showed no semantic additions/removals.

### SteamTracking / GameTracking

- SteamTracking source advanced from `a260716ab21092371928054f81823ae0609db0e3` to `8c5870a2e67a2cb36c2d406926ecbb727a34b667` (`2026-07-24T04:04:01Z`).
- Normalized hardware-signal comparison versus `2026-07-21` showed `0` semantic additions and `0` removals.
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` moved from `1784323984` to `1784677696`.
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved from `1784588115` to `1784778118`.
- `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.

### SteamOS Package Mirror

- No material Frame launch signal found.

### 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 follow-up backend movement for the Frame package IDs.

### Customs / Regulatory

- New `2026-07-22` VR/dongle rows from `TECH-FRONT (CHONGQING) COMPUTER CO`:
  - `SNHBSHACHI267040` to `CEVA C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES/FABRIC FOAM RUBBER/WIFI DONGLE/ADAPTER`, `42 PKG`, `7441 Kgs`.
  - `SNHBSHALAX267039` to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`, `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES & FABRIC FOAM RUBBER & WIFI DONGLE & ADAPTER`, `42 PKG`, `6854 Kgs`.
- New same-day comparator row: `SNHBSHACHI267045`, `GAME CONSOLE`, `40 PKG`, `12025 Kgs`.
- New `2026-07-18` controller row: `SNHBHKGCHI267020`, `WIRELESS PC CONTROLLER`, `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. The July 22 VR/dongle shipment rows are strong logistics corroboration but not public launch/reservation evidence.

## 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 customs for more rows explicitly naming Wi-Fi dongle/adapters, headset accessories, or VR controller accessories.
- Keep watching Komodo Frame for a fresh timestamp, new sections, or new media.
