Run Note: 2026-05-23

Summary

Full skill run completed with artifacts under /Users/sean/Coding/steam-hardware-watch/runs/2026-05-23.
No watched SteamKit/PICS changenumbers moved versus the 2026-05-22 report.
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 initially blocked on the automated path, then recovered through the dedicated browser fallback. Product timestamps and section baselines are unchanged versus 2026-05-22.
SteamTracking was updated to commit 5f58a47 (2026-05-23T04:32:36Z). Known Triton/Ibex pairing strings remain present, but no new Machine/Frame launch signal was found.
Customs remains a partial source: ImportInfo blocked, ImportGenius fetched successfully, and the latest relevant GAME CONSOLE rows remain the 2026-05-18 shipments.

Dedicated browser fallback recovered Controller, Machine, and Frame product/section data.
Product modified timestamps:
- Controller: 2026-05-22T15:28:27
- Machine: 2026-04-24T14:32:54
- Frame: 2026-04-24T14:33:36
No new Machine or Frame sections appeared. Machine and Frame still expose the old wishlist section baseline.
Visual assets: 141 discovered, 136 retrieved, 5 blocked known Komodo URLs.

SteamKit/PICS completed successfully.
No watched app or package changenumbers moved versus 2026-05-22.
Controller package 1558609 stayed at 35893035.
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 recent package-history movement.

Updated /tmp/SteamTracking-master from 28f5287 to 5f58a47.
The latest commit summary is 8 files | steam_client_osx, steam_client_ubuntu12, steam_client_win64, steam_cmd_linux, steam_cmd_osx, steam_cmd_win64, steamchina_win64, steamdeck_stable.
Known Triton/Ibex pairing surfaces remain present.
Added focused Steam client manifest monitoring to the normal watcher.
steam_client_beta_linuxarm64 is now tracked as a high-signal ARM64/Fremont watch target. Baseline:
- version 1779139477
- bins_hardware_linuxarm64.zip.cc71be587407299a6125bfa9e889b97bf8df7591
- bins_linuxarm64.zip.37968ebfba6404c03b92ebe8a4c6083bff4b6ff0
- steam_linuxarm64.zip.406e533ed3218787b6d548ecf9e316bca01494ce
- runtime_steamrt_linuxarm64.zip.b41880f37f2c30fe064f21db62a0c7985964fc3c
steam_client_publicbeta_linuxarm64 is tracked beside it for beta-to-publicbeta promotion context. Baseline version is 1779479049.
Diff checks did not find a new watched package ID, Machine/Frame price, reservation, or release-date signal.

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.
The comparison report's Valve endpoint add/remove lines are path/line-number noise from regenerated artifacts; the normalized reservation package API table is unchanged versus 2026-05-22.

ImportInfo automated customs fetches were blocked.
ImportGenius fetched successfully and still parsed 10 relevant GAME CONSOLE rows for INGRAM MICRO C/O VALVE CORPORATION / TECH-FRONT (CHONGQING) COMPUTER CO.
No newer row appeared beyond the two 2026-05-18 shipments:
- SNHBSHACHI265020, 42 PKG, 14353 Kgs.
- SNHBSHACHI264140, 42 PKG, 14533 Kgs.
Interpretation: customs remains meaningful logistics corroboration, but it does not identify whether the goods are Steam Machine, Steam Frame, or another Valve hardware SKU.

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, plus continued May GAME CONSOLE logistics corroboration. There was no additional Machine or Frame PICS or public API movement today.

Continue focused SteamKit/PICS checks for watched package IDs.
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.
Keep ImportGenius in the normal customs monitor and treat ImportInfo as best-effort while it blocks.
