# Run Note: 2026-07-11
|
|
|
|
## 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.
|
|
|
|
## 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`.
|
|
|
|
### SteamDB
|
|
|
|
- Watched reservation-package table was captured.
|
|
- Frame packages `1629484` and `1629486` remain `private_exists_only`, last record update `5 May 2026 - 18:50:54 UTC`, changenumber `35672606`.
|
|
- 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.
