# 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`.
- 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`.
- No new Frame videos, manuals, support docs, product tags, section rows, or media rows appeared.
### 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`.
- Frame package `1629486`: `private_exists_only`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`.
- 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.
- New Frame-relevant additions include:
- `SteamFrameWirelessAdapterTroubleshootingDialog_*` strings for failed/success/waiting states, "Turn On Wi-Fi", and "Don't show this dialog again".
- `SteamFrameWirelessAdapterAirplaneDialog_Description`.
- client settings `skip_steamframe_troubleshooting_dialog` and `skip_steamframe_airplane_dialog`.
- `system\SteamFrameWirelessAdapterTroubleshootingDialogSkip` and `system\SteamFrameWirelessAdapterAirplaneDialogSkip`.
- Existing Steam Frame setup, pairing, compatibility, and wireless adapter strings remain present.
- `steam_client_beta_linuxarm64` stayed at `1783475136`.
- `steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64` moved from `1783376539` to `1783556394`.
- `bins_hardware_linuxarm64` did not change in beta or publicbeta.
### 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.
- Newer rows appeared beyond the prior `2026-07-01` baseline:
- `2026-07-08` `VIRTUAL REALITY DEVICES`, `42 PKG`, `6457 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHALAX266135`, to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
- `2026-07-08` `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `12620 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHALAX266134`, to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
- `2026-07-08` `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `12540 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHALAX265192`, to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
- `2026-07-08` `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `14507 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHALAX265178`, to `CEVA NL C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
- `2026-07-07` `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `12424 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHACHI265227`, to `CEVA C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
- `2026-07-07` `GAME CONSOLE`, `42 PKG`, `14925 Kgs`, BOL `SNHBSHALAX265226`, to `CEVA C/O VALVE CORPORATION`.
- 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`.
