`RepeaterDaemon._shutdown` arms an exit watchdog -- a `threading.Timer` that
calls `os._exit(0)` after `SHUTDOWN_EXIT_GRACE_S` (5 s). That is right in
production: it guarantees SIGTERM is honoured.
`test_run_starts_http_and_handles_dispatcher_cancelled_gracefully` awaits
`daemon.run()`, whose `finally` reaches `_shutdown()`, so it armed a real
watchdog and returned. Five seconds later the timer fired and took the whole
pytest process down.
The failure mode is what makes this expensive: `os._exit(0)` exits with **status
zero**. pytest produces no summary line and a truncated progress bar, so the run
looks like it simply ended -- CI reads exit 0 as green on a run that never
finished, and any failure after that point is invisible. Locally the suite
appeared to hang at ~77% with no failures reported; it was actually being killed
there.
It also misattributes itself. The test blamed is whichever happened to be
running five seconds later, so it moves between runs
(`test_route_login_server_companion_only_skips_login_helper` and
`test_route_login_server_hash_collision_offers_to_both` on two runs here) and
never points at the cause. Finding it needed wrapping `_arm_exit_watchdog` to
log the arming test.
Two changes:
- Patch `_arm_exit_watchdog` for that test, matching the guard the shutdown
tests in `test_main_py_coverage.py` already use.
- Add `tests/conftest.py` with an autouse fixture that fails any test leaving a
live `shutdown-watchdog` timer, and cancels it. This blames the responsible
test at the moment it leaks, rather than an unrelated one later. Verified it
catches the original bug: reverting the one-line fix turns the silent
process-kill into a teardown error naming the right test.
`test_exit_watchdog_is_a_daemon_timer_that_forces_exit` is unaffected -- it sets
a 0.05 s grace and asserts on a patched `os._exit` before returning, so it
leaves nothing behind.
With this the suite runs to completion: 3 failed, 1580 passed. Those 3 are
pre-existing on `dev` and unrelated.

The previous commit fixed battery_mv in the STATS_TYPE_CORE frame, but that is
not the path companion apps use to display battery. CMD_GET_BATT_AND_STORAGE
goes through `CompanionFrameServer._get_batt_and_storage()`, an openhop_core
extension hook documented as "Default: all zeros" that the repeater never
overrode — so apps showed 0% regardless of what any sensor reported.
Override it in the repeater's frame server: battery from the same sensor lookup
added for core stats, storage from the filesystem holding the configured
storage_dir. Both are wired in from main.py alongside stats_getter.
Found by deploying the previous fix and observing that Home Assistant showed the
modem battery correctly while the phone app still showed 0% — two different
paths, only one of which had been fixed.
`_get_companion_stats` hardcoded `battery_mv: 0`, so every MeshCore companion
client connected to a Python repeater showed no battery, even when a sensor
plug-in was reporting one. The protocol side is already complete: the frame
server packs `battery_mv` into the STATS_TYPE_CORE frame and clients request it
via CMD_GET_BATT_AND_STORAGE.
Surface the first sensor reading that publishes a usable battery voltage,
accepting either `battery_voltage_mv` or `battery_voltage_v`. This covers an
attached UPS HAT as well as the battery of an openHop modem the repeater is
driving, which is the case that prompted this: a solar-powered modem whose
battery was invisible to the companion app right up until it went flat.
Returns 0 when no sensor reports a battery, which is what clients already
expect from a mains-powered node, and the lookup never raises — stats must
not be able to take down the companion connection.
The room CLI advert read only settings.room_name while the daemon
scheduler and the HTTP endpoint read settings.node_name -- so when the
two keys differed, a single `advert` issued over the mesh CLI renamed
the room on the mesh to the identity-name fallback. Both read sites now
resolve node_name -> room_name -> identity name.
Seen in production on 2026-08-19: a room configured with node_name only
renamed itself after one CLI advert and clients tracked it under the
identity name until the next scheduler advert.

The end-to-end tests asserted reply[7] == PERM_ACL_ADMIN, which follows
the constant wherever it goes — the one thing these tests exist to stop.
They now assert the literal bytes from openhop_core's acl_conformance
table, so both repos are pinned to the same numbers rather than to each
other's vocabulary. Checked out against 2a55dd6 with these tests copied
in, all seven fail.
Also cover the fail-closed import guard, which was the only untested
path protecting against a mixed-version install, plus its happy path so
a guard that always fires cannot pass unnoticed.
The 5s WebSocket broadcast used to carry uptime_seconds alone — while
the dashboard sidebar starved: its duty-cycle gauge, noise floor and
mode never travel over WS, and the heartbeat marks stats fresh, which
suppresses the UI's HTTP fallback poll. The vitals now ride every
beat, all cheap in-memory scalars (~200 bytes): utilization_percent,
noise_floor_dbm (kept on record, no per-beat SQL), the repeater mode
(so a change made over RF or CLI reaches the web badge), and the
advert tier counters the sidebar's OK/Drop line shows, injected as a
callback from the daemon like the other collector hooks.
In exchange the heavy get_packet_stats(24h) SQL aggregate is decimated
to one beat in six (30s): nobody reads a 24h cumulative at 5s
resolution, and the UI already treats both payload fields as optional,
so older dashboards keep working. Net wire traffic goes down.
