Run Note: 2026-05-19

Summary

Full skill run completed with artifacts under /Users/sean/Coding/steam-hardware-watch/runs/2026-05-19.
No watched SteamKit/PICS changenumbers moved versus the 2026-05-18 report.
No Steam Machine or Steam Frame public-readiness movement was found.
Valve public APIs still do not expose Steam Machine or Steam Frame package groups, public package details, price, exact release timing, or purchase/reservation readiness.
Komodo was blocked by Komodo waiting-room HTML even through the dedicated browser fallback. Treat compare-report Komodo section removals as blocked-fetch artifacts, not real removals.

Raw curl and browser-backed JSON fetches did not recover Komodo JSON in this run.
Direct browser-backed probe of /wp-json/ returned Komodo waiting-room HTML.
Latest known good product modified timestamps remain from the 2026-05-18 pass:
- Controller: 2026-05-15T15:50:21
- Machine: 2026-04-24T14:32:54
- Frame: 2026-04-24T14:33:36
Visual asset reporting fell back to previous discovered assets: 141 discovered, 136 retrieved, 5 blocked known Komodo URLs.

SteamKit/PICS completed successfully.
No watched app or package changenumbers moved versus 2026-05-18.
Controller package 1558609 stayed at 35893035 after the 2026-05-17 private metadata change.
Machine packages stayed unchanged:
- 1629446: 35842876
- 1629447: 35842851
- 1629458: 35842860
- 1629460: 35842863
Frame packages stayed unchanged:
- 1629484: 35672606
- 1629486: 35672606
Interpretation: today's run does not add a new Controller, Machine, or Frame PICS signal. The latest material Machine signal remains the 2026-05-14 follow-up bump across all four watched Machine package IDs.

Automated SteamDB access remained blocked.
Reservation package rows remain missing_or_blocked, so SteamDB is still not a human-readable corroborating baseline for the recent Machine package movement or the 2026-05-17 Controller package change.

Known Triton/Ibex pairing surfaces remain present.
No new Machine or Frame price, reservation, package, or release-date signal was found.

Public mirror remained reachable.
fremont-hw-support 20260506.1-1 remains visible in holo-3.8 and holo-main.
No direct Steam Machine, Steam Frame, Deckard, Roy, ARM/Snapdragon, or new product-specific namespace surfaced in this pass.

Valve public endpoints were reachable.
Controller remains public with package 1558609, package group present, and $99.00.
Frame app 4165890 remains Coming soon, with no public packages, no package groups, and no price.
Machine app 4165910 remains Coming soon, with no public packages, no package groups, and no price.
Machine packages 1629446, 1629447, 1629458, 1629460 still return packagedetails success:false.
Frame packages 1629484, 1629486 still return packagedetails success:false.
Public Valve appdetails and packagedetails JSON still do not expose the 2026-05-17 Controller private PICS package change.

Price: unchanged. Only Steam Controller has a confirmed price.
Release date: unchanged. Only Steam Controller has a confirmed exact date.
Same-time launch: unchanged. Full same-day launch remains ruled out.
Product furthest along: Steam Controller is already public/purchasable. Among unreleased hardware, Steam Machine still has the strongest recent backend-prep signal because of the 2026-05-12 and 2026-05-14 package movement, but there was no additional Machine or Frame PICS movement today.

Continue focused SteamKit/PICS checks for watched package IDs.
Retry Komodo after the waiting room clears; do not interpret today's empty Komodo section reports as removals.
Watch whether Controller package 1558609 gets public stock/reservation behavior changes after the 2026-05-17 removal of ignorereservationifstockavailable=1.
Watch Valve public appdetails / packagedetails for Machine package exposure, package groups, price, reservation text, or purchase eligibility.
Complete a trusted-browser SteamDB package-history pass for Machine packages 1629446, 1629447, 1629458, and 1629460.
