 **Steam library failures (GitHub #21/#30):** on some Frames Steam never loads FramePort's shortcuts.vdf entries (same SteamOS build and arm64 beta client as the dev Frame; IDs correct; file written before Steam starts): Play → console_log `GameAction [AppID <id>] … RequestingLicense → UpdatingAppInfo → LaunchApp failed with AppError_9` (= "Game configuration unavailable", Steam treats the id as a store app). Cause unknown; agent v42/43 diagnostics: `launch` returns `steam` (started / error + code / silent from console_log), `collect_diag` adds `steam_library` (real Steam dir, beta, Steam start vs vdf write time, entries per account, devkit games) + `steam-console.txt` (incl. Steam's `logs/shortcuts.previous.txt` if present; steamclient.so has "LoadShortcuts: rejecting attempt to load shortcuts: invalid account ID"). **Fallback (agent v43):** when Play gets AppError_9 the agent registers the game through Steam's devkit interface (what Valve's Devkit Management Tool does, MIT: `devkit-1 steam://devkit-1/<~/.steam/steam.token>/create-shortcut?response=<file>&gameid=<id>&directory=~/devkit-game` written to ~/.steam/steam.pipe; answer file / `.error`; `~/devkit-game/<id>/launch.sh` = link to the game's launch.sh, `<id>-argv.json` ["launch.sh"] (relative to the folder), `<id>-settings.json` {steam_play 0, compat_tool ""}). Steam adds it live (no restart), picks its own appid (read back from shortcuts.vdf by DevkitGameID), shows it as a normal non-Steam game named "Devkit Game: <id>" (OpenVR 0, but VR works: owner-verified 2026-10-04), art copied to grid/<appid>*. Ids: letter first, then letters/digits/_ only (spaces, '-', leading digit → "missing/invalid arguments"). Later Plays use the devkit entry; uninstall (`devkit_unregister`, `delete-shortcut` live) and purge remove it. Verified on the dev Frame: register/launch/unregister; the AppError_9 trigger itself only in unit tests.
+**Exit game (GitHub #36, 2026-10-04):** `Apps.TerminateApp` (what Exit game calls; reachable for tests through Steam's CEF devtools on 127.0.0.1:8080, SharedJSContext, `Runtime.evaluate` — a stdlib websocket client is enough) closed both a normal shortcut and a devkit entry on the dev Frame within 1-3 s. SIGTERM to Steam's `reaper` alone left launch.sh + Lepton (setsid) + the container running (an earlier headset launch ran on for 87 min); SIGTERM to launch.sh cleans up in ~4 s. Agent v44: launch.sh's 2 s loop ends the game when its parent (the reaper) is gone; `upgrade_launchers` (from ensure_host_fixes) adds that to existing launchers in place. Which in-headset exit path fails is still unknown. Screenshots on the Frame: all under SteamVR's appid 250820 (`760/remote/250820/screenshots`, screenshots.vdf has creation time, no game).
+**SteamVR dashboard at game start (2026-10-04):** the dashboard (Resume game / controller / VR options) was open whenever a FramePort game started (also over Lepton's 2D launcher). Steam's UI exposes `SteamClient.OpenVR.VROverlay.{IsDashboardVisible,HideDashboard,ShowDashboard}` (CEF devtools, `steam_js` in the agent). Agent v44: launch.sh starts `_dashboard_worker` (waits for FrameBridge's first `pacing:` line in launch.log, then hides a visible dashboard for 25 s, at most 3 times; log `<base>/dashboard.log`; opt out with env FRAMEPORT_KEEP_DASHBOARD=1). Verified on the dev Frame (dashboard shown → 4XVR launched via Steam → hidden ~5 s after the first frames); not yet seen in the headset. **Headset (ITR2, 2026-10-05): too late** — Steam shows its frame menu (`valve.steam.gamepadui.frame.menu`, vrwebhelper_systemui.txt `[PooledPopups] Showing`) ~0.3 s after the game's first submitted frame (FrameBridge `new layer:`), but the first `pacing:` summary comes ~8 s later; the owner had pressed Resume (`[HideDashboard] return_to_game`) before the worker looked. Agent v52: watches from the first `new layer:` line (incremental log reads, 0.5 s polls, 30 s window). Agent v53: stops for good once the player opens the dashboard with the controller (`toggle_dashboard_action` in vrwebhelper_systemui.txt since the worker started): v52 closed it 60 ms after each press, and the game, paused for it, stayed paused.
+**Space warp / ITR2 (2026-10-04):** Into The Radius 2 (UE5, `libUnreal.so` + OVRPlugin, Vulkan) uses Application SpaceWarp (extra swapchains `376x376 format=97` motion vectors + `format=129` depth); #35 reports flickering textures. OVRPort's `patch_disable_space_warp` has no effect on UE5, and hiding XR_FB_space_warp in FrameBridge's enumerate doesn't reach the game either: **OVRPort's dispatcher offers/enables XR_FB_space_warp itself**. FrameBridge `hide_space_warp` (per game, off) hides it and strips `XrCompositionLayerSpaceWarpInfoFB` (1000171000) from the projection views (log `hide_space_warp: removed space warp info`); the game still renders its MV swapchains. Test build installed on the dev Frame; flicker not yet checked in a headset. Heuristic: UE5 + OVRPlugin shows it as an option (off). `equirect_emul` is suggested for Unreal games whose graphics API isn't detected ("GLES or unknown"); on Vulkan it switches itself off (Myst/Riven/ITR2): harmless, but Unreal Vulkan detection is a known gap.
+**PR #34 (merged 2026-10-04, Lucas-Mathieu):** `native/adapter/audio_metadata.h` patches Meta XR Audio Wwise (only build ID e1619e7f…, Batman: Arkham Shadow 1.4.1) so queued audio metadata isn't freed while the current audio frame references it (smoke-bomb crash). Verified headless: installs ("metadata reclamation follows …"), 72 fps; we added a once-per-second scan limit. Outside PRs: review source, rebuild `artifacts/` ourselves, merge locally (contributor's commit kept), push main.
+**Heuristics eval (2026-10-04):** `scripts/eval_heuristics.py "<VR CyberDeck Portable>"` → 19/44 recipes exact, 322/352 fields (most diffs: `frame.unity_text_input` suggested where older catalog recipes lack it; the rest are runtime-only findings: use_alt, vk_shader_fix, focus_hold, sync_guard, multipass). `PATCHED/` copies aren't scored (already converted).
+**Power (0.9, agent v47):** sidebar bar above the Frame card: Sleep / Restart / Shut down, each confirmed (`app.frame_power`, a running game asks again). logind answers CanSuspend/CanReboot/CanPowerOff = "challenge" for an SSH session but "yes" inside a user unit, so agent `power` runs `systemctl suspend|reboot|poweroff` from a transient `systemd-run --user --on-active=3` timer (the command answers first). Restart verified on the device (back in ~84 s, new boot id).
+**Proton default (agent v51, owner's choice 2026-10-05):** the newest **stable** ARM64 Proton is the default for PC VR games (`pick_proton`: asked-for name/alias, else newest installed stable, else any stable). Agent v49-50 defaulted to Experimental; the owner's headset A/B with Rick and Morty (Experimental 69 % reprojected frames, stable felt much smoother) reverted it. The game page's Customize shows `pcvr.proton_tool` as a dropdown (Stable (default) / Experimental = alias `proton-experimental`); `ensure_proton` installs a chosen one (it asks once more for the runtime Steam only names after Proton is installed; Experimental installed unattended on the device in 53 s). A PC VR launch test that fails on stable suggests Experimental (`pipeline.PROTON_TOOL`, `proton_alternative_worth_trying`, button "Try Proton Experimental and reinstall"). Remaining Rick and Morty stutter on head turns = the game rendering below the refresh rate (reprojection), not Proton.
+**USB cable link (verified 2026-10-05, cabled to the dev PC):** `usb0` is a USB **NCM** gadget (configfs g1: `ncm.usb0` + `ffs.adb`, Valve 28de:2460) set up by `usb-ncm-gadget@usb0.service`, which only runs with `ConditionPathExists=|/etc/systemd/system/adbd.service.d/steamos-devkit-enabled` = **Developer Mode only**. `usb-ncm-dnsmasq@usb0` serves DHCP with fixed `dhcp-host` entries: Frame 10.86.200.233, PC **10.86.200.234** (`frame/usb.py` FRAME_USB_IP/PC_USB_IP). Windows 11 binds its built-in "UsbNcm Host Device" (no driver); WSL mirrored sees eth 10.86.200.234. USB is high-speed (USB 2.0): upload 36.9 MB/s vs 11.3 MB/s home Wi-Fi. Frame→PC over the cable worked without a firewall change. `scripts/usb_autotest.py` (Windows via powershell.exe from WSL), `frameport frame usb-check`. Wizard "Set up with a USB cable" (`PairingServer(host=PC_USB_IP)`; the real bootstrap ran end to end over USB). Discovery dedupes by SSH host key and prefers USB > Frame hotspot > network (`discovery.dedupe`); a lost address is re-found by key (`Frame.relocate`, tested with a dead saved address).
+**Catalog updates without a release (2026-10-05):** apps fetch `catalog/games/*.yaml` from GitHub `main` (`recommend/catalog.refresh_remote`: one API call `git/trees/main?recursive=1` + raw.githubusercontent downloads of changed blobs, cached as `catalog-gh-<sha>.yaml`, every 6 h; GUI at start + Settings → Data "Check now"; CLI background thread + `frameport catalog-update`). `catalog.load()` only reads the cache. A remote entry is skipped (`unusable_reason`) when it names a patch/adapter key this app doesn't register, has a field `CatalogEntry` doesn't know, or `min_app` > this version: add `min_app` (or rely on new patch ids) when a config needs an unreleased FramePort. Remote beats bundled unless the bundled entry has a later updated/verified date; the user's own entries still win as before. Off: setting `catalog.auto_update`, env FRAMEPORT_NO_CATALOG_UPDATE; FRAMEPORT_CATALOG_URL still overrides the source. So: **pushing a catalog change to main reaches users within 6 h** (their recipes follow via catalog_rev → Update on Frame).
 **Lepton storage (2026-09-30):** each app's /sdcard (= /storage/emulated/0 → `<base>/lepton-data/external`) has `Movies`/`Download`/`Documents` symlinked to the Frame's `~/Videos`/`~/Downloads`/`~/Documents` (liblepton/mounting.sh, only if they exist at start); agent v24 `storage_targets` reads that mapping. Android's MediaProvider canonicalises paths to /home/steamos/... and rejects every file ("doesn't appear under [/system/media...]"), `sm list-volumes` is empty: the media index never works, apps must browse folders. Lepton installs with `adb install -g` (runtime permissions granted, MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE too). Files: `install/files.py`, `frameport frame send|storage`, GUI Files tab (formerly Frame → Send files).
 **SteamVR per-app settings (2026-09-30):** editing steamvr.vrsettings while SteamVR runs is lost; the web API (127.0.0.1:27062 /app/setsettings) needs `x-steamvr-secret`. `native/vrsettings` = `fp_vrsettings.exe` (freestanding, OpenVR `FnTable:IVRSettings_003` as a Utility app, loads SteamVR's bin/win64/openvr_api.dll) sets them live and SteamVR persists them: section `steam.app.<shortcut appid>`, keys `preferredRefreshRate` (float) and `motionSmoothingOverride` (0 global, 1 on, 2 off, 3 always). Steam Link (vrlink) lists the Frame's rates 72/80/90/96/108/120/144 in vrserver.txt and follows the per-app preference ("host preferred N Hz"; whether the key is honoured is unverified in-headset yet). Judder metric: vrcompositor.txt session summary dropped + "Timed out. N total" (Stormland: 0 dropped but 313 timeouts in 2 min); fpsVR (`%LOCALAPPDATA%\fpsVR\*.json`, 0.1 ms histograms) gives p99 CPU/GPU ms. `pcvr.steamvr_tuning` (default on, PC only) applies on Play: highest rate whose budget ≥ p99×1.05, at least one step down, smoothing on.

+# Meta XR Audio metadata lifetime
+
+FrameBridge automatically handles metadata retirement in the verified AArch64
+Meta XR Audio Wwise build (`e1619e7fb839badf0ea5ecc22d9f028d0b17c34d`). It requires
+the build ID and exact function prologues; other builds and 32-bit adapters are
+left unchanged. No additional patch switch or recipe entry is required.
+
+The SDK queues terminated metadata for deletion, then drains those queues before
+reading the current `AkAudioObjects` snapshot. In Batman: Arkham Shadow, that
+snapshot can still reference queued metadata during smoke-bomb playback. The
+audio thread subsequently clears its dirty flags at offset 8 through the stale
+pointer. A hardware watch captured this store in
+`OculusEndpointSink::ConsumeObjectExperimentalMetadata`, at library offset
+`0x2ced90`. Reallocated input tree nodes occupy the same 48-byte size class;
+the stale store corrupts their right pointer and the game crashes later.
+
+`native/adapter/audio_metadata.h` wraps the audio consumption boundary to make
+the current snapshot available to metadata cleanup. `audio_metadata_queue.h`
+retains queued objects still referenced by that snapshot, then reclaims them
+normally when the references disappear. It preserves the SDK's queue mutex,
+virtual deleting destructor, audio parameters and processing. There is no timed
+quarantine, replacement allocator, audio suppression or diagnostic memory arena.
+
+Synthetic regression tests exercise mixed referenced and unreferenced queue
+entries, both metadata types, subsequent retirement, and cleanup without a live
+snapshot. On-headset smoke-bomb tests first showed the observed overwrite stopped,
+then passed with ordinary allocations and all memory diagnostics removed.
+
+The existing `frame.adapter` install step includes the repair in its packaged
+adapter and updates already wrapped APKs. Rebuild the adapters and checksums with
+`python native/build.py --only adapter`.

+# FAQ
+
+## How should I lay out a game that has OBB files (an APK plus a data folder)?
+
+Give every game its own folder, put the APK in it, and put the game's data next to the APK in a folder named
+after the game's **package name** (the name the `.obb` files contain, e.g. `com.Armature.VR4`):
+
+```
+Games/                                  ← scan this folder (Add games → Scan a folder)
+├── Resident Evil 4/                    ← one folder per game (any name)
+│   ├── VR4.apk                         ← the APK (any file name)
+│   └── com.Armature.VR4/               ← the data folder: exactly the package name
+│       ├── main.203.com.Armature.VR4.obb
+│       └── patch.203.com.Armature.VR4.obb
+└── Beat Saber/
+    └── com.beatgames.beatsaber.apk     ← games without OBBs: just the APK
+```
+
+- **Data folder name:** the package name (`com.Armature.VR4` above), or `obb`. FramePort uses the first of the two
+  that exists and isn't empty.
+- **Everything in that folder is copied** to the game's `Android/obb/<package>/` on the Frame, subfolders included.
+  So games that ship raw data files instead of `.obb` files work the same way.
+- **One game per folder.** Several APKs in one folder count as one game; FramePort uses the first and keeps the others
+  as alternates.
+- **Scanning:** pick the folder that contains the game folders (`Games/` above) to add them all, or one game's folder
+  to add just that game. FramePort looks up to 5 levels deep.
+- **A single game:** Add games → Add an APK file… works with a lone APK too. Its data is found when the data folder sits next
+  to the APK, named as above.
+
+Not sure of the package name? Look at the OBB file names: `main.<version>.<package name>.obb`. Or add the APK
+first: the game's page shows the package name under **Details**.

+FrameBridge includes automatic metadata retirement for the verified Meta XR Audio

+invariant and regression coverage. It uses the existing adapter installation.
+
 Sources of the prebuilt binaries in `../artifacts/` (committed, with `SHA256SUMS`). End users never compile anything;
 developers rebuild with `python native/build.py` (downloads NDK r27c, OpenXR headers at pinned commits, d8 into
 `native/.cache/`, git-ignored). The adapter, GL shim and platform compat rebuild byte-identically; the VrApi bridge
