-## Feature Priority
-
-**Primary (must work correctly):**
-- Sending and receiving direct messages and channel messages
-- Accurate message display: correct ordering, deduplication, pagination/history loading, and real-time updates without data loss or duplicates
-- Accurate ACK tracking, repeat/echo counting, and path display
-- Historical packet decryption (recovering incoming messages using newly-added keys)
-- Outgoing DMs are stored as plaintext by the send endpoint — no decryption needed
-
-**Secondary:**
-- Channel key cracker (WebGPU brute-force)
-- Repeater management (telemetry, CLI commands, ACL)
-
-**Tertiary (best-effort, quality-of-life):**
-- Raw packet feed — a debug/observation tool ("radio aquarium"); interesting to watch or copy packets from, but not critical infrastructure
-- Map view — visual display of node locations from advertisements
-- Network visualizer — force-directed graph of mesh topology
-- Bot system — automated message responses
-- Read state tracking / mark-all-read — convenience feature for unread badges; no need for transactional atomicity or race-condition hardening
-
-## Error Handling Philosophy
-
-**Background tasks** (WebSocket broadcasts, periodic sync, contact auto-loading, etc.) use fire-and-forget `asyncio.create_task`. Exceptions in these tasks are logged to the backend logs, which is sufficient for debugging. There is no need to track task references or add done-callbacks purely for error visibility. If there's a convenient way to bubble an error to the frontend (e.g., via `broadcast_error` for user-actionable problems), do so, but this is minor and best-effort.
-
 ## Key Design Principles
 
 1. **Store-and-serve**: Backend stores all packets even when no client is connected
 2. **Parallel storage**: Messages stored both decrypted (when possible) and as raw packets
 3. **Extended capacity**: Server stores contacts/channels beyond radio limits (~350 contacts, ~40 channels)
-4. **Real-time updates**: WebSocket pushes events; REST for actions; optional MQTT forwarding
+4. **Real-time updates**: WebSocket pushes events; REST for actions
 5. **Offline-capable**: Radio operates independently; server syncs when connected
 6. **Auto-reconnect**: Background monitor detects disconnection and attempts reconnection
 
-## Intentional Security Design Decisions
-
-The following are **deliberate design choices**, not bugs. They are documented in the README with appropriate warnings. Do not "fix" these or flag them as vulnerabilities.
-
-1. **No CORS restrictions**: The backend allows all origins (`allow_origins=["*"]`). This lets users access their radio from any device/origin on their network without configuration hassle.
-2. **No authentication or authorization**: There is no login, no API keys, no session management. The app is designed for trusted networks (home LAN, VPN). The README warns users not to expose it to untrusted networks.
-3. **Arbitrary bot code execution**: The bot system (`app/bot.py`) executes user-provided Python via `exec()` with full `__builtins__`. This is intentional — bots are a power-user feature for automation. The README explicitly warns that anyone on the network can execute arbitrary code through this.
-
-## Intentional Packet Handling Decision
-
-Raw packet handling uses two identities by design:
-- **`id` (DB packet row ID)**: storage identity from payload-hash deduplication (path bytes are excluded), so repeated payloads share one stored raw-packet row.
-- **`observation_id` (WebSocket only)**: realtime observation identity, unique per RF arrival, so path-diverse repeats are still visible in-session.
-
-Frontend packet-feed consumers should treat `observation_id` as the dedup/render key, while `id` remains the storage reference.
-
-## Contact Advert Path Memory
-
-To improve repeater disambiguation in the network visualizer, the backend stores recent unique advertisement paths per contact in a dedicated table (`contact_advert_paths`).
-
-- This is independent of raw-packet payload deduplication.
-- Paths are keyed per contact + path, with `heard_count`, `first_seen`, and `last_seen`.
-- Only the N most recent unique paths are retained per contact (currently 10).
-- See `frontend/src/components/AGENTS.md` § "Advert-Path Identity Hints" for how the visualizer consumes this data.
-
 ## Data Flow
 
 ### Incoming Messages
 
-1. Radio receives raw bytes → `packet_processor.py` parses, decrypts, deduplicates, and stores in database (primary path via `RX_LOG_DATA` event)
-2. `event_handlers.py` handles higher-level events (`CONTACT_MSG_RECV`, `ACK`) as a fallback/supplement
-3. `broadcast_event()` in `websocket.py` fans out to both WebSocket clients and MQTT
+1. Radio receives message → MeshCore library emits event
+2. `event_handlers.py` catches event → stores in database
+3. `ws_manager` broadcasts to connected clients
 4. Frontend `useWebSocket` receives → updates React state
 
 ### Outgoing Messages

 **Direct messages**: Expected ACK code is tracked. When ACK event arrives, message marked as acked.
 
-**Channel messages**: Flood messages echo back through repeaters. Repeats are identified by the database UNIQUE constraint on `(type, conversation_key, text, sender_timestamp)` — when an INSERT hits a duplicate, `_handle_duplicate_message()` in `packet_processor.py` adds the new path and, for outgoing messages only, increments the ack count. Incoming repeats add path data but do not change the ack count. There is no timestamp-windowed matching; deduplication is exact-match only.

 Read state (`last_read_at`) is tracked **server-side** for consistency across devices:
 - Stored as Unix timestamp in `contacts.last_read_at` and `channels.last_read_at`
-- Updated via `POST /api/contacts/{public_key}/mark-read` and `POST /api/channels/{key}/mark-read`
+- Updated via `POST /api/contacts/{key}/mark-read` and `POST /api/channels/{key}/mark-read`
 - Bulk update via `POST /api/read-state/mark-all-read`
 - Aggregated counts via `GET /api/read-state/unreads` (server-side computation)
 
 **State Tracking Keys (Frontend)**: Generated by `getStateKey()` for message times (sidebar sorting):
 - Channels: `channel-{channel_key}`
-- Contacts: `contact-{full-public-key}`
+- Contacts: `contact-{12-char-pubkey-prefix}`
 
 **Note:** These are NOT the same as `Message.conversation_key` (the database field).
 
-### MQTT Publishing
-
-Optional MQTT integration forwards mesh events to an external broker for home automation, logging, or alerting. All MQTT config is stored in the database (`app_settings`), not env vars — configured from the Settings pane, no server restart needed.
-
-**Two independent toggles**: publish decrypted messages, publish raw packets.
-
-**Topic structure** (default prefix `meshcore`):
-- `meshcore/dm:<contact_public_key>` — decrypted DM
-- `meshcore/gm:<channel_key>` — decrypted channel message
-- `meshcore/raw/dm:<contact_key>` — raw packet attributed to a DM contact
-- `meshcore/raw/gm:<channel_key>` — raw packet attributed to a channel
-- `meshcore/raw/unrouted` — raw packets that couldn't be attributed
-
-**Architecture**: `broadcast_event()` in `websocket.py` calls `mqtt_broadcast()` — a single hook covering all message and raw_packet broadcasts. The `MqttPublisher` in `app/mqtt.py` manages a background connection loop with auto-reconnect and backoff. Publishes are fire-and-forget (silent drop if disconnected). Connection state changes trigger toasts via `broadcast_error`/`broadcast_success`. The health endpoint includes `mqtt_status`.
-
-**Security**: MQTT password stored in plaintext in SQLite, consistent with the project's trusted-network design.
-

+Backend server + browser interface for MeshCore mesh radio networks. Attach your radio over serial, and then you can:
 
-* Send and receive DMs and channel messages
+* Send and receive DMs and GroupTexts
 * Cache all received packets, decrypting as you gain keys
-* Run multiple Python bots that can analyze messages and respond to DMs and channels
 * Monitor unlimited contacts and channels (radio limits don't apply -- packets are decrypted server-side)
 * Access your radio remotely over your network or VPN
-* Search for hashtag room names for channels you don't have keys for yet
-* Forward decrypted packets to MQTT brokers
-* Visualize the mesh as a map or node set, view repeater stats, and more!
+* Brute force hashtag room names for GroupTexts you don't have keys for yet

-
-The container runs as root by default for maximum serial passthrough compatibility across host setups. On Linux, if you switch between native and Docker runs, `./data` can end up root-owned. If you do not need that compatibility behavior, you can enable the optional `user: "${UID:-1000}:${GID:-1000}"` line in `docker-compose.yaml` to keep ownership aligned with your host user.

-## Core Runtime Flows
+## Key Architectural Patterns
 
-### Incoming data
+### Repository Pattern
 
-1. Radio emits events.
-2. `on_rx_log_data` stores raw packet and tries decrypt/pipeline handling.
-3. Decrypted messages are inserted into `messages` and broadcast over WS.
-4. `CONTACT_MSG_RECV` is a fallback DM path when packet pipeline cannot decrypt.
+All database operations go through repository classes in `repository.py`:
 
-### Outgoing messages
+```python
+from app.repository import ContactRepository, ChannelRepository, MessageRepository, RawPacketRepository, AppSettingsRepository
 
-1. Send endpoints in `routers/messages.py` call MeshCore commands.
-2. Message is persisted as outgoing.
-3. Endpoint broadcasts WS `message` event so all live clients update.
-4. ACK/repeat updates arrive later as `message_acked` events.
-5. Channel resend (`POST /messages/channel/{id}/resend`) strips the sender name prefix by exact match against the current radio name. This assumes the radio name hasn't changed between the original send and the resend — a safe assumption since name changes require a radio config update and are not something that happens mid-conversation.
+# Examples
+contact = await ContactRepository.get_by_key_prefix("abc123")
+await MessageRepository.create(msg_type="PRIV", text="Hello", received_at=timestamp)
+await RawPacketRepository.mark_decrypted(packet_id, message_id)
 
-### Connection lifecycle
+# App settings (single-row pattern)
+settings = await AppSettingsRepository.get()
+await AppSettingsRepository.update(auto_decrypt_dm_on_advert=True)
+await AppSettingsRepository.add_favorite("contact", public_key)
+```
 
-- `RadioManager.start_connection_monitor()` checks health every 5s.
-- Monitor reconnect path runs `post_connect_setup()` before broadcasting healthy state.
-- Manual reconnect/reboot endpoints call `reconnect()` then `post_connect_setup()`.
-- Setup includes handler registration, key export, time sync, contact/channel sync, polling/advert tasks.
+### Radio Connection
 
-## Important Behaviors
+`RadioManager` in `radio.py` handles serial connection:
 
-### Read/unread state
+```python
+from app.radio import radio_manager
 
-- Server is source of truth (`contacts.last_read_at`, `channels.last_read_at`).
-- `GET /api/read-state/unreads` returns counts, mention flags, and `last_message_times`.
+# Access meshcore instance
+if radio_manager.meshcore:
+    await radio_manager.meshcore.commands.send_msg(dst, msg)
+```
 
-### Echo/repeat dedup
+Auto-detection scans common serial ports when `MESHCORE_SERIAL_PORT` is not set.
 
-- Message uniqueness: `(type, conversation_key, text, sender_timestamp)`.
-- Duplicate insert is treated as an echo/repeat: the new path (if any) is appended, and the ACK count is incremented **only for outgoing messages**. Incoming repeats add path data but do not change the ACK count.
+### Event-Driven Architecture
 
-### Raw packet dedup policy
+Radio events flow through `event_handlers.py`:
 
-- Raw packet storage deduplicates by payload hash (`RawPacketRepository.create`), excluding routing/path bytes.
-- Stored packet `id` is therefore a payload identity, not a per-arrival identity.
-- Realtime raw-packet WS broadcasts include `observation_id` (unique per RF arrival) in addition to `id`.
-- Frontend packet-feed features should key/dedupe by `observation_id`; use `id` only as the storage reference.
-- Message-layer repeat handling (`_handle_duplicate_message` + `MessageRepository.add_path`) is separate from raw-packet storage dedup.
+| Event | Handler | Actions |
+|-------|---------|---------|
+| `CONTACT_MSG_RECV` | `on_contact_message` | **Fallback only** - stores DM if packet processor didn't handle it |
+| `RX_LOG_DATA` | `on_rx_log_data` | Store packet, decrypt channels/DMs, broadcast via WS |
+| `PATH_UPDATE` | `on_path_update` | Update contact path info |
+| `NEW_CONTACT` | `on_new_contact` | Sync contact from radio's internal database |
+| `ACK` | `on_ack` | Match pending ACKs, mark message acked, broadcast |
 
-### Contact sync throttle
+**Note on DM handling**: Direct messages are primarily handled by the packet processor via
+`RX_LOG_DATA`, which decrypts using the exported private key. The `CONTACT_MSG_RECV` handler
+exists as a fallback for radios without `ENABLE_PRIVATE_KEY_EXPORT=1` in firmware.
 
-- `sync_recent_contacts_to_radio()` sets `_last_contact_sync = now` before the sync completes.
-- This is intentional: if sync fails, the next attempt is still throttled to prevent a retry-storm against a flaky radio. Contacts will resync on the next scheduled cycle or on reconnect.
+### WebSocket Broadcasting
 
-### Periodic advertisement
+Real-time updates use `ws_manager` singleton:
 
-- Controlled by `app_settings.advert_interval` (seconds).
-- `0` means disabled.
-- Last send time tracked in `app_settings.last_advert_time`.
+```python
+from app.websocket import ws_manager
 
-### MQTT publishing
+# Broadcast to all connected clients
+await ws_manager.broadcast("message", {"id": 1, "text": "Hello"})
+```
 
-- Optional forwarding of mesh events to an external MQTT broker.
-- All config in `app_settings` (not env vars): `mqtt_broker_host`, `mqtt_broker_port`, `mqtt_username`, `mqtt_password`, `mqtt_use_tls`, `mqtt_topic_prefix`, `mqtt_publish_messages`, `mqtt_publish_raw_packets`.
-- Disabled when `mqtt_broker_host` is empty.
-- `broadcast_event()` in `websocket.py` calls `mqtt_broadcast()` — single hook covers all message and raw_packet events.
-- `MqttPublisher` (`app/mqtt.py`) runs a background connection loop with auto-reconnect and exponential backoff (5s → 30s).
-- Publishes are fire-and-forget; individual publish failures logged but not surfaced to users.
-- Connection state changes surface via `broadcast_error`/`broadcast_success` toasts.
-- Health endpoint includes `mqtt_status` field (`connected`, `disconnected`, `disabled`).
-- Settings changes trigger `mqtt_publisher.restart()` — no server restart needed.
-- Topics: `{prefix}/dm:{key}`, `{prefix}/gm:{key}`, `{prefix}/raw/dm:{key}`, `{prefix}/raw/gm:{key}`, `{prefix}/raw/unrouted`.
+Event types: `health`, `contacts`, `channels`, `message`, `contact`, `raw_packet`, `message_acked`, `error`
 
-## API Surface (all under `/api`)
+**Note:** The WebSocket initial connect only sends `health`. Contacts and channels are fetched
+via REST (`GET /api/contacts`, `GET /api/channels`) for faster parallel loading. The WS still
+broadcasts real-time `contacts`/`channels` updates when data changes.
+
+Helper functions for common broadcasts:
+
+```python
+from app.websocket import broadcast_error, broadcast_health
+
+# Notify clients of errors (shows toast in frontend)
+broadcast_error("Operation failed", "Additional details")
+
+# Notify clients of connection status change
+broadcast_health(radio_connected=True, serial_port="/dev/ttyUSB0")
+```
+
+### Connection Monitoring
+
+`RadioManager` includes a background task that monitors connection status:
+
+- Checks connection every 5 seconds
+- Broadcasts `health` event on status change
+- Attempts automatic reconnection when connection lost
+- **Runs full `post_connect_setup()` after successful reconnect** (event handlers, key export, time sync, contact/channel sync, advertisements, message polling)
+- Resilient to transient errors (logs and continues rather than crashing)
+- Supports manual reconnection via `POST /api/radio/reconnect`
+
+```python
+from app.radio import radio_manager
+
+# Manual reconnection
+success = await radio_manager.reconnect()
+
+# Background monitor (started automatically in app lifespan)
+await radio_manager.start_connection_monitor()
+await radio_manager.stop_connection_monitor()
+```
+
+### Message Polling
+
+Periodic message polling serves as a fallback for platforms where push events are unreliable.
+Use `pause_polling()` to temporarily suspend polling during operations that need exclusive
+radio access (e.g., repeater CLI commands):
+
+```python
+from app.radio_sync import pause_polling, is_polling_paused
+
+# Pause polling during sensitive operations (supports nesting)
+async with pause_polling():
+    # Polling is paused here
+    await do_repeater_operation()
+
+    async with pause_polling():
+        # Still paused (nested)
+        await do_another_operation()
+
+    # Still paused (outer context active)
+
+# Polling resumes when all contexts exit
+
+# Check current state
+if is_polling_paused():
+    print("Polling is currently paused")
+```
+
+### Periodic Advertisement
+
+The server automatically sends an advertisement every hour to announce presence on the mesh.
+This helps maintain visibility to other nodes and refreshes routing information.
+
+- Started automatically on radio connection
+- Interval: 1 hour (3600 seconds)
+- Uses flood mode for maximum reach
+
+```python
+from app.radio_sync import start_periodic_advert, stop_periodic_advert, send_advertisement
+
+# Start/stop periodic advertising
+start_periodic_advert()  # Started automatically in lifespan
+await stop_periodic_advert()
+
+# Manual advertisement
+await send_advertisement()  # Returns True on success
+```

+
+## Database Migrations (`migrations.py`)
+
+Schema migrations use SQLite's `user_version` pragma for version tracking:
+
+```python
+from app.migrations import get_version, set_version, run_migrations
+
+# Check current schema version
+version = await get_version(conn)  # Returns int (0 for new/unmigrated DB)
+
+# Run pending migrations (called automatically on startup)
+applied = await run_migrations(conn)  # Returns number of migrations applied
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. `database.py` calls `run_migrations()` after schema initialization
+2. Each migration checks `user_version` and runs if needed
+3. Migrations are idempotent (safe to run multiple times)
+4. `ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN` handles existing columns gracefully
+
+### Adding a New Migration
+
+```python
+# In migrations.py
+async def run_migrations(conn: aiosqlite.Connection) -> int:
+    version = await get_version(conn)
+    applied = 0
+
+    if version < 1:
+        await _migrate_001_add_last_read_at(conn)
+        await set_version(conn, 1)
+        applied += 1
+
+    # Add new migrations here:
+    # if version < 2:
+    #     await _migrate_002_something(conn)
+    #     await set_version(conn, 2)
+    #     applied += 1
+
+    return applied
+```
+
+## Packet Decryption (`decoder.py`)
+
+The decoder handles MeshCore packet decryption for historical packet analysis:
+
+### Packet Types
+
+```python
+class PayloadType(IntEnum):
+    GROUP_TEXT = 0x05      # Channel messages (decryptable)
+    TEXT_MESSAGE = 0x02   # Direct messages
+    ACK = 0x03
+    ADVERT = 0x04
+    # ... see decoder.py for full list
+```
+
+### Channel Key Derivation
+
+Hashtag channels derive keys from name:
+```python
+channel_key = hashlib.sha256(b"#channelname").digest()[:16]
+```
+
+### Decryption Flow
+
+1. Parse packet header to get payload type
+2. For `GROUP_TEXT`: extract channel_hash (1 byte), cipher_mac (2 bytes), ciphertext
+3. Verify HMAC-SHA256 using 32-byte secret (key + 16 zero bytes)
+4. Decrypt with AES-128 ECB
+5. Parse decrypted content: timestamp (4 bytes), flags (1 byte), "sender: message" text
+
+```python
+from app.decoder import try_decrypt_packet_with_channel_key
+
+result = try_decrypt_packet_with_channel_key(raw_bytes, channel_key)
+if result:
+    print(f"{result.sender}: {result.message}")
+```
+
+### Direct Message Decryption
+
+Direct messages use ECDH key exchange (Ed25519 → X25519) for shared secret derivation.
+
+**Key storage**: The private key is exported from the radio on startup and stored in memory
+via `keystore.py`. This enables server-side DM decryption even when contacts aren't loaded
+on the radio.
+
+**Primary path (packet processor)**: When an `RX_LOG_DATA` event contains a `TEXT_MESSAGE`
+packet, `packet_processor.py` handles the complete flow:
+1. Decrypts using known contact public keys and stored private key
+2. Filters CLI responses (txt_type=1 in flags)
+3. Stores message in database
+4. Broadcasts via WebSocket
+5. Updates contact's last_contacted timestamp
+6. Triggers bot if enabled
+
+**Fallback path (event handler)**: If the packet processor can't decrypt (no private key
+export, unknown contact), `on_contact_message` handles DMs from the MeshCore library's
+`CONTACT_MSG_RECV` event. DB deduplication prevents double-storage when both paths fire.
+
+**Historical decryption**: When creating a contact with `try_historical=True`, the server
+attempts to decrypt all stored `TEXT_MESSAGE` packets for that contact.
+
+**Direction detection**: The decoder uses the 1-byte dest_hash and src_hash to determine
+if a message is incoming or outgoing. Edge case: when both bytes match (1/256 chance),
+defaults to treating as incoming.
+
+```python
+from app.decoder import try_decrypt_dm
+
+result = try_decrypt_dm(raw_bytes, private_key, contact_public_key)
+if result:
+    print(f"{result.message} (timestamp={result.timestamp})")
+```
+
+## Advertisement Parsing (`decoder.py`)
+
+Advertisement packets contain contact information including optional GPS coordinates.
+
+### Packet Structure
+
+```
+Bytes 0-31:   Public key (32 bytes)
+Bytes 32-35:  Timestamp (4 bytes, little-endian Unix timestamp)
+Bytes 36-99:  Signature (64 bytes)
+Byte 100:     App flags
+Bytes 101+:   Optional fields (location, name) based on flags
+```
+
+### App Flags (byte 100)
+
+- Bits 0-3: Device role (1=Chat, 2=Repeater, 3=Room, 4=Sensor)
+- Bit 4: Has location (lat/lon follow)
+- Bit 5: Has feature 1
+- Bit 6: Has feature 2
+- Bit 7: Has name (null-terminated string at end)
+
+### GPS Extraction
+
+When bit 4 is set, latitude and longitude follow as signed int32 little-endian values,
+divided by 1,000,000 to get decimal degrees:
+
+```python
+from app.decoder import parse_advertisement
+
+advert = parse_advertisement(payload_bytes)
+if advert:
+    print(f"Device role: {advert.device_role}")  # 1=Chat, 2=Repeater
+    if advert.lat and advert.lon:
+        print(f"Location: {advert.lat}, {advert.lon}")
+```
+
+### Data Flow
+
+1. `event_handlers.py` receives ADVERTISEMENT event
+2. `packet_processor.py` calls `parse_advertisement()` to extract data
+3. Contact is upserted with location data (`lat`, `lon`) and `device_role` as `type`
+4. Frontend MapView displays contacts with GPS coordinates
+
+## ACK and Repeat Detection
+
+The `acked` field is an integer count, not a boolean:
+- `0` = not acked
+- `1` = one ACK/echo received
+- `2+` = multiple flood echoes received
+
+### Direct Message ACKs
+
+When sending a direct message, an expected ACK code is tracked:
+```python
+from app.event_handlers import track_pending_ack
+
+track_pending_ack(expected_ack="abc123", message_id=42, timeout_ms=30000)
+```
+
+When ACK event arrives, the message's ack count is incremented.
+
+### Channel Message Repeats
+
+Flood messages echo back through repeaters. Detection uses:
+- Channel key
+- Text hash
+- Timestamp (±5 second window)
+
+Each repeat increments the ack count. The frontend displays:
+- `?` = no acks
+- `✓` = 1 echo
+- `✓2`, `✓3`, etc. = multiple echoes (real-time updates via WebSocket)
+
+### Auto-Contact Sync to Radio
+
+To enable the radio to auto-ACK incoming DMs, recent non-repeater contacts are
+automatically loaded to the radio. Configured via `max_radio_contacts` setting (default 200).
+
+- Triggered on each advertisement from a non-repeater contact
+- Loads most recently contacted non-repeaters (by `last_contacted` timestamp)
+- Throttled to at most once per 30 seconds
+- `last_contacted` updated on message send/receive
+
+```python
+from app.radio_sync import sync_recent_contacts_to_radio
+
+result = await sync_recent_contacts_to_radio(force=True)
+# Returns: {"loaded": 5, "already_on_radio": 195, "failed": 0}
+```

-- `message` — new message (channel or DM, from packet processor or send endpoints)
-- `message_acked` — ACK/echo update for existing message (ack count + paths)
-- `raw_packet` — every incoming RF packet (for real-time packet feed UI)
-- `error` — toast notification (reconnect failure, missing private key, etc.)
-- `success` — toast notification (historical decrypt complete, etc.)
-
-Initial WS connect sends `health` only. Contacts/channels are loaded by REST.
-Client sends `"ping"` text; server replies `{"type":"pong"}`.
-
-## Data Model Notes
-
-Main tables:
-- `contacts` (includes `first_seen` for contact age tracking)
-- `channels`
-- `messages` (includes `sender_name`, `sender_key` for per-contact channel message attribution)
-- `raw_packets`
-- `contact_advert_paths` (recent unique advertisement paths per contact)
-- `contact_name_history` (tracks name changes over time)
-- `app_settings`
-
-`app_settings` fields in active model:
-- `max_radio_contacts`
-- `favorites`
-- `auto_decrypt_dm_on_advert`
-- `sidebar_sort_order`
-- `last_message_times`
-- `preferences_migrated`
-- `advert_interval`
-- `last_advert_time`
-- `bots`
-- `mqtt_broker_host`, `mqtt_broker_port`, `mqtt_username`, `mqtt_password`
-- `mqtt_use_tls`, `mqtt_tls_insecure`, `mqtt_topic_prefix`, `mqtt_publish_messages`, `mqtt_publish_raw_packets`
-
-## Security Posture (intentional)
-
-- No authn/authz.
-- No CORS restriction (`*`).
-- Bot code executes user-provided Python via `exec()`.
-
-These are product decisions for trusted-network deployments; do not flag as accidental vulnerabilities.
+### Static Files (Production)
+In production, the backend serves the frontend if `frontend/dist` exists. Users must build the
+frontend first (`cd frontend && npm install && npm run build`):
+- `/` - Serves `frontend/dist/index.html`
+- `/assets/*` - Serves compiled JS/CSS from `frontend/dist/assets/`
+- `/*` - Falls back to `index.html` for SPA routing
 
 ## Testing
 
-Run backend tests:
-
+Run tests with:
 ```bash
 PYTHONPATH=. uv run pytest tests/ -v
 ```
 
-Test suites:
+Key test files:
+- `tests/test_decoder.py` - Channel + direct message decryption, key exchange, real-world test vectors
+- `tests/test_keystore.py` - Ephemeral key store operations
+- `tests/test_event_handlers.py` - ACK tracking, repeat detection, CLI response filtering
+- `tests/test_api.py` - API endpoint tests, read state tracking
+- `tests/test_migrations.py` - Migration system, schema versioning

+## Common Tasks
+
+### Adding a New Endpoint
+
+1. Create or update router in `app/routers/`
+2. Define Pydantic models in `app/models.py` if needed
+3. Add repository methods in `app/repository.py` for database operations
+4. Register router in `app/main.py` if new file
+5. Add tests in `tests/`
+
+### Adding a New Event Handler
+
+1. Define handler in `app/event_handlers.py`
+2. Register in `register_event_handlers()` function
+3. Broadcast updates via `ws_manager` as needed
+
+### Working with Radio Commands
+
+```python
+# Available via radio_manager.meshcore.commands
+await mc.commands.send_msg(dst, msg)
+await mc.commands.send_chan_msg(chan, msg)
+await mc.commands.get_contacts()
+await mc.commands.add_contact(contact_dict)
+await mc.commands.set_channel(idx, name, key)
+await mc.commands.send_advert(flood=True)
 ```
 
-## Errata & Known Non-Issues
+## Repeater Telemetry
 
-### Sender timestamps are 1-second resolution (protocol constraint)
+The `POST /api/contacts/{key}/telemetry` endpoint fetches status, neighbors, and ACL from repeaters (contact type=2).
 
-The MeshCore radio protocol encodes `sender_timestamp` as a 4-byte little-endian integer (Unix seconds). This is a firmware-level wire format — the radio, the Python library (`commands/messaging.py`), and the decoder (`decoder.py`) all read/write exactly 4 bytes. Millisecond Unix timestamps would overflow 4 bytes, so higher resolution is not possible without a firmware change.
+### Request Flow
 
-**Consequence:** The dedup index `(type, conversation_key, text, COALESCE(sender_timestamp, 0))` operates at 1-second granularity. Sending identical text to the same conversation twice within one second will hit the UNIQUE constraint on the second insert, returning HTTP 500 *after* the radio has already transmitted. The message is sent over the air but not stored in the database. Do not attempt to fix this by switching to millisecond timestamps — it will break echo dedup (the echo's 4-byte timestamp won't match the stored value) and overflow `to_bytes(4, "little")`.
+1. Verify contact exists and is a repeater (type=2)
+2. Add contact to radio with stored path data (from advertisements)
+3. Send login with password
+4. Request status with retries (3 attempts, 10s timeout)
+5. Fetch neighbors with `fetch_all_neighbours()` (handles pagination)
+6. Fetch ACL with `req_acl_sync()`
+7. Resolve pubkey prefixes to contact names from database
 
-### Outgoing DM echoes remain undecrypted
+### ACL Permission Levels
 
-When our own outgoing DM is heard back via `RX_LOG_DATA` (self-echo, loopback), `_process_direct_message` passes `our_public_key=None` for the outgoing direction, disabling the outbound hash check in the decoder. The decoder's inbound check (`src_hash == their_first_byte`) fails because the source is us, not the contact — so decryption returns `None`. This is by design: outgoing DMs are stored directly by the send endpoint, so no message is lost.
+```python
+ACL_PERMISSION_NAMES = {
+    0: "Guest",
+    1: "Read-only",
+    2: "Read-write",
+    3: "Admin",
+}
+```
 
-### Infinite setup retry on connection monitor
+### Response Models
 
-When `post_connect_setup()` fails (e.g. `export_and_store_private_key` raises `RuntimeError` because the radio didn't respond), `_setup_complete` is never set to `True`. The connection monitor sees `connected and not setup_complete` and retries every 5 seconds — indefinitely. This is intentional: the radio may be rebooting, waking from sleep, or otherwise temporarily unresponsive. We keep retrying so that setup completes automatically once the radio becomes available, without requiring manual intervention.
+```python
+class NeighborInfo(BaseModel):
+    pubkey_prefix: str      # 4-12 char prefix
+    name: str | None        # Resolved contact name
+    snr: float              # Signal-to-noise ratio in dB
+    last_heard_seconds: int # Seconds since last heard
 
-### DELETE channel returns 200 for non-existent keys
+class AclEntry(BaseModel):
+    pubkey_prefix: str      # 12 char prefix
+    name: str | None        # Resolved contact name
+    permission: int         # 0-3
+    permission_name: str    # Human-readable name
 
-`DELETE /api/channels/{key}` returns `{"status": "ok"}` even if the key didn't exist. This is intentional — the postcondition is "channel doesn't exist," which is satisfied regardless of whether it existed before. No 404 needed.
+class TelemetryResponse(BaseModel):
+    # Status fields
+    pubkey_prefix: str
+    battery_volts: float    # Converted from mV
+    uptime_seconds: int
+    # ... signal quality, packet counts, etc.
 
-### Contact lat/lon 0.0 vs NULL
+    # Related data
+    neighbors: list[NeighborInfo]
+    acl: list[AclEntry]
+```
 
-MeshCore uses `0.0` as the sentinel for "no GPS coordinates" (see `models.py` `to_radio_dict`). The upsert SQL uses `COALESCE(excluded.lat, contacts.lat)`, which preserves existing values when the new value is `NULL` — but `0.0` is not `NULL`, so it overwrites previously valid coordinates. This is intentional: we always want the most recent location data. If a device stops broadcasting GPS, the old coordinates are presumably stale/wrong, so overwriting with "not available" (`0.0`) is the correct behavior.
+## Repeater CLI Commands
 
-## Editing Checklist
+After login via telemetry endpoint, you can send CLI commands to repeaters:
 
-When changing backend behavior:
-1. Update/add router and repository tests.
-2. Confirm WS event contracts when payload shape changes.
-3. Run `PYTHONPATH=. uv run pytest tests/ -v`.
-4. If API contract changed, update frontend types and AGENTS docs.

+CLI responses have `txt_type=1` (vs `txt_type=0` for normal messages). Both DM handling
+paths filter these to prevent storage—the command endpoint returns the response directly.
+
+**Packet processor path** (primary):
+```python
+# In create_dm_message_from_decrypted()
+txt_type = decrypted.flags & 0x0F
+if txt_type == 1:
+    return None  # Skip CLI responses
+```
+
+**Event handler path** (fallback):
+```python
+# In on_contact_message()
+txt_type = payload.get("txt_type", 0)
+if txt_type == 1:
+    return  # Skip CLI responses
+```
+
+### Helper Function
+
+`prepare_repeater_connection()` handles the login dance:
+1. Add contact to radio with stored path from DB (`out_path`, `out_path_len`)
+2. Send login with password
+3. Wait for key exchange to complete
+
+### Contact Path Tracking
+
+When advertisements are received, path data is extracted and stored:
+- `last_path`: Hex string of routing path bytes
+- `last_path_len`: Number of hops (-1=flood/unknown, 0=direct, >0=hops through repeaters)
+
+**Shortest path selection**: When receiving echoed advertisements within 60 seconds, the shortest path is kept. This ensures we use the most efficient route when multiple paths exist.

-## Architecture Notes
+## State Management
 
-### State ownership
+All application state lives in `App.tsx` using React hooks. No external state library.
 
-`App.tsx` orchestrates high-level state and delegates to hooks:
-- `useRadioControl`: radio health/config state, reconnect/reboot polling
-- `useAppSettings`: settings CRUD, favorites, preferences migration
-- `useContactsAndChannels`: contact/channel lists, creation, deletion
-- `useConversationRouter`: URL hash → active conversation routing
-- `useConversationMessages`: fetch, pagination, dedup/update helpers
-- `useUnreadCounts`: unread counters, mention tracking, recent-sort timestamps
-- `useRepeaterDashboard`: repeater dashboard state (login, pane data/retries, console, actions)
+### Core State
 
-### Initial load + realtime
+```typescript
+const [health, setHealth] = useState<HealthStatus | null>(null);
+const [config, setConfig] = useState<RadioConfig | null>(null);
+const [appSettings, setAppSettings] = useState<AppSettings | null>(null);
+const [contacts, setContacts] = useState<Contact[]>([]);
+const [channels, setChannels] = useState<Channel[]>([]);
+const [messages, setMessages] = useState<Message[]>([]);
+const [rawPackets, setRawPackets] = useState<RawPacket[]>([]);
+const [activeConversation, setActiveConversation] = useState<Conversation | null>(null);
+const [unreadCounts, setUnreadCounts] = useState<Record<string, number>>({});
+```
 
-- Initial data: REST fetches (`api.ts`) for config/settings/channels/contacts/unreads.
-- WebSocket: realtime deltas/events.
-- On WS connect, backend sends `health` only; contacts/channels still come from REST.
+### App Settings
 
-### New Message modal
+App settings are stored server-side and include:
+- `favorites` - List of favorited conversations (channels/contacts)
+- `sidebar_sort_order` - 'recent' or 'alpha'
+- `auto_decrypt_dm_on_advert` - Auto-decrypt historical DMs on new contact
+- `last_message_times` - Map of conversation keys to last message timestamps
 
-`NewMessageModal` intentionally preserves form state (tab, inputs, checkboxes) when closed and reopened. The component instance persists across open/close cycles. This is by design so users don't lose in-progress input if they accidentally dismiss the dialog.
+**Migration**: On first load, localStorage preferences are migrated to the server.
+The `preferences_migrated` flag prevents duplicate migrations.
 
-### Message behavior
+### State Flow
 
-- Outgoing sends are added to UI after the send API returns (not pre-send optimistic insertion), then persisted server-side.
-- Backend also emits WS `message` for outgoing sends so other clients stay in sync.
-- ACK/repeat updates arrive as `message_acked` events.
-- Outgoing channel messages show a 30-second resend control; resend calls `POST /api/messages/channel/{message_id}/resend`.
+1. **REST API** fetches initial data on mount in parallel (config, settings, channels, contacts, unreads)
+2. **WebSocket** pushes real-time updates (health, messages, contact changes, raw packets)
+3. **Components** receive state as props, call handlers to trigger changes
 
-### Visualizer behavior
+**Note:** Contacts and channels are loaded via REST on mount (not from WebSocket initial push).
+The WebSocket only sends health on initial connect, then broadcasts real-time updates.
 
-- `VisualizerView.tsx` hosts `PacketVisualizer3D.tsx` (desktop split-pane and mobile tabs).
-- `PacketVisualizer3D` uses persistent Three.js geometries for links/highlights/particles and updates typed-array buffers in-place per frame.
-- Packet repeat aggregation keys prefer decoder `messageHash` (path-insensitive), with hash fallback for malformed packets.
-- Raw packet events carry both:
-  - `id`: backend storage row identity (payload-level dedup)
-  - `observation_id`: realtime per-arrival identity (session fidelity)
-- Packet feed/visualizer render keys and dedup logic should use `observation_id` (fallback to `id` only for older payloads).
+### Conversation Header
+
+For contacts, the header shows path information alongside "Last heard":
+- `(Last heard: 10:30 AM, direct)` - Direct neighbor (path_len=0)
+- `(Last heard: 10:30 AM, 2 hops)` - Routed through repeaters (path_len>0)
+- `(Last heard: 10:30 AM, flood)` - No known path (path_len=-1)
 
 ## WebSocket (`useWebSocket.ts`)
 
-- Auto reconnect (3s) with cleanup guard on unmount.
-- Heartbeat ping every 30s.
-- Event handlers: `health`, `message`, `contact`, `raw_packet`, `message_acked`, `error`, `success`, `pong` (ignored).
-- For `raw_packet` events, use `observation_id` as event identity; `id` is a storage reference and may repeat.
+The `useWebSocket` hook manages real-time connection:
 
-## URL Hash Navigation (`utils/urlHash.ts`)
+```typescript
+const wsHandlers = useMemo(() => ({
+  onHealth: (data: HealthStatus) => setHealth(data),
+  onMessage: (msg: Message) => { /* add to list, track unread */ },
+  onMessageAcked: (messageId: number, ackCount: number) => { /* update ack count */ },
+  // ...
+}), []);
 
-Supported routes:
-- `#raw`
-- `#map`
-- `#map/focus/{pubkey_or_prefix}`
-- `#visualizer`
-- `#channel/{channelKey}`
-- `#channel/{channelKey}/{label}`
-- `#contact/{publicKey}`
-- `#contact/{publicKey}/{label}`
+useWebSocket(wsHandlers);
+```
 
-Legacy name-based hashes are still accepted for compatibility.
+### Features
 
-## Conversation State Keys (`utils/conversationState.ts`)
+- **Auto-reconnect**: Reconnects after 3 seconds on disconnect
+- **Heartbeat**: Sends ping every 30 seconds
+- **Event types**: `health`, `contacts`, `channels`, `message`, `contact`, `raw_packet`, `message_acked`, `error`
+- **Error handling**: `onError` handler displays toast notifications for backend errors
 
-`getStateKey(type, id)` produces:
-- channels: `channel-{channelKey}`
-- contacts: `contact-{publicKey}`
+### URL Detection
 
-Use full contact public key here (not 12-char prefix).
+```typescript
+const isDev = window.location.port === '5173';
+const wsUrl = isDev
+  ? 'ws://localhost:8000/api/ws'
+  : `${protocol}//${window.location.host}/api/ws`;
+```
 
-`conversationState.ts` keeps an in-memory cache and localStorage helpers used for migration/compatibility.
-Canonical persistence for unread and sort metadata is server-side (`app_settings` + read-state endpoints).
+## API Client (`api.ts`)
 
-## Utilities
+Typed REST client with consistent error handling:
 
-### `utils/pubkey.ts`
+```typescript
+import { api } from './api';
 
-Current public export:
-- `getContactDisplayName(name, pubkey)`
+// Health
+await api.getHealth();
 
-It falls back to a 12-char prefix when `name` is missing.
+// Radio
+await api.getRadioConfig();
+await api.updateRadioConfig({ name: 'MyRadio' });
+await api.sendAdvertisement();
 
-### `utils/pathUtils.ts`
+// Contacts/Channels
+await api.getContacts();
+await api.createContact(publicKey, name, tryHistorical);  // Create contact, optionally decrypt historical DMs
+await api.getChannels();
+await api.createChannel('#test');
 
-Distance/validation helpers used by path + map UI.
+// Messages
+await api.getMessages({ type: 'CHAN', conversation_key: channelKey, limit: 200 });
+await api.sendChannelMessage(channelKey, 'Hello');
+await api.sendDirectMessage(publicKey, 'Hello');
 
-### `utils/favorites.ts`
+// Historical decryption
+await api.decryptHistoricalPackets({ key_type: 'channel', channel_name: '#test' });
 
-LocalStorage migration helpers for favorites; canonical favorites are server-side.
+// Radio reconnection
+await api.reconnectRadio();  // Returns { status, message, connected }
 
-## Types and Contracts (`types.ts`)
+// Repeater telemetry
+await api.requestTelemetry(publicKey, password);  // Returns TelemetryResponse
 
-`AppSettings` currently includes:
-- `max_radio_contacts`
-- `favorites`
-- `auto_decrypt_dm_on_advert`
-- `sidebar_sort_order`
-- `last_message_times`
-- `preferences_migrated`
-- `advert_interval`
-- `last_advert_time`
-- `bots`
-- `mqtt_broker_host`, `mqtt_broker_port`, `mqtt_username`, `mqtt_password`
-- `mqtt_use_tls`, `mqtt_tls_insecure`, `mqtt_topic_prefix`, `mqtt_publish_messages`, `mqtt_publish_raw_packets`
+// Repeater CLI commands (after login)
+await api.sendRepeaterCommand(publicKey, 'ver');  // Returns CommandResponse
+```
 
-`HealthStatus` includes `mqtt_status` (`"connected"`, `"disconnected"`, `"disabled"`, or `null`).
+### API Proxy (Development)
 
-`RawPacket.decrypted_info` includes `channel_key` and `contact_key` for MQTT topic routing.
+Vite proxies `/api/*` to backend (backend routes are already prefixed with `/api`):
 
-## Contact Info Pane
+```typescript
+// vite.config.ts
+server: {
+  proxy: {
+    '/api': {
+      target: 'http://localhost:8000',
+      changeOrigin: true,
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
 
-Clicking a contact's avatar in `ChatHeader` or `MessageList` opens a `ContactInfoPane` sheet (right drawer) showing comprehensive contact details fetched from `GET /api/contacts/{key}/detail`:
+## Type Definitions (`types.ts`)
 
-- Header: avatar, name, public key, type badge, on-radio badge
-- Info grid: last seen, first heard, last contacted, distance, hops
-- GPS location (clickable → map)
-- Favorite toggle
-- Name history ("Also Known As") — shown only when the contact has used multiple names
-- Message stats: DM count, channel message count
-- Most active rooms (clickable → navigate to channel)
-- Advert observation rate
-- Nearest repeaters (resolved from first-hop path prefixes)
-- Recent advert paths
+### Key Interfaces
 
-State: `infoPaneContactKey` in App.tsx controls open/close. Live contact data from WebSocket updates is preferred over the initial detail snapshot.
+```typescript
+interface Contact {
+  public_key: string;      // 64-char hex public key
+  name: string | null;
+  type: number;            // 0=unknown, 1=client, 2=repeater, 3=room
+  on_radio: boolean;
+  last_path_len: number;   // -1=flood, 0=direct, >0=hops through repeaters
+  last_path: string | null; // Hex routing path
+  last_seen: number | null; // Unix timestamp
+  // ...
+}
 
-## Repeater Dashboard
+interface Channel {
+  key: string;             // 32-char hex channel key
+  name: string;
+  is_hashtag: boolean;
+  on_radio: boolean;
+}
 
-For repeater contacts (`type=2`), App.tsx renders `RepeaterDashboard` instead of the normal chat UI (ChatHeader + MessageList + MessageInput).
+interface Message {
+  id: number;
+  type: 'PRIV' | 'CHAN';
+  conversation_key: string;  // public key for PRIV, channel key for CHAN
+  text: string;
+  outgoing: boolean;
+  acked: number;  // 0=not acked, 1+=ack count (flood echoes)
+  // ...
+}
 
-**Login**: `RepeaterLogin` component — password or guest login via `POST /api/contacts/{key}/repeater/login`.
+interface Conversation {
+  type: 'contact' | 'channel' | 'raw' | 'map' | 'visualizer';
+  id: string;              // public key for contacts, channel key for channels, 'raw'/'map'/'visualizer' for special views
+  name: string;
+}
 
-**Dashboard panes** (after login): Telemetry, Neighbors, ACL, Radio Settings, Advert Intervals, Owner Info — each fetched via granular `POST /api/contacts/{key}/repeater/{pane}` endpoints. Panes retry up to 3 times client-side. "Load All" fetches all panes serially (parallel would queue behind the radio lock).
+interface Favorite {
+  type: 'channel' | 'contact';
+  id: string;  // Channel key or contact public key
+}
 
-**Actions pane**: Send Advert, Sync Clock, Reboot — all send CLI commands via `POST /api/contacts/{key}/command`.
+interface AppSettings {
+  max_radio_contacts: number;
+  favorites: Favorite[];
+  auto_decrypt_dm_on_advert: boolean;
+  sidebar_sort_order: 'recent' | 'alpha';
+  last_message_times: Record<string, number>;
+  preferences_migrated: boolean;
+}
 
-**Console pane**: Full CLI access via the same command endpoint. History is ephemeral (not persisted to DB).
+// Repeater telemetry types
+interface NeighborInfo {
+  pubkey_prefix: string;
+  name: string | null;
+  snr: number;
+  last_heard_seconds: number;
+}
 
-All state is managed by `useRepeaterDashboard` hook. State resets on conversation change.
+interface AclEntry {
+  pubkey_prefix: string;
+  name: string | null;
+  permission: number;
+  permission_name: string;
+}
 
-## Styling
+interface TelemetryResponse {
+  battery_volts: number;
+  uptime_seconds: number;
+  // ... status fields
+  neighbors: NeighborInfo[];
+  acl: AclEntry[];
+}
 
-UI styling is mostly utility-class driven (Tailwind-style classes in JSX) plus shared globals in `index.css` and `styles.css`.
-Do not rely on old class-only layout assumptions.
+interface CommandResponse {
+  command: string;
+  response: string;
+  sender_timestamp: number | null;
+}
+```
 
-## Security Posture (intentional)
+## Component Patterns
 
-- No authentication UI.
-- Frontend assumes trusted network usage.
-- Bot editor intentionally allows arbitrary backend bot code configuration.
+### MessageInput with Imperative Handle
+
+Exposes `appendText` method for click-to-mention:
+
+```typescript
+export interface MessageInputHandle {
+  appendText: (text: string) => void;
+}
+
+export const MessageInput = forwardRef<MessageInputHandle, MessageInputProps>(
+  function MessageInput({ onSend, disabled, isRepeaterMode }, ref) {
+    useImperativeHandle(ref, () => ({
+      appendText: (text: string) => {
+        setText((prev) => prev + text);
+        inputRef.current?.focus();
+      },
+    }));
+    // ...
+  }
+);
+
+// Usage in App.tsx
+const messageInputRef = useRef<MessageInputHandle>(null);
+messageInputRef.current?.appendText(`@[${sender}] `);
+```
+
+### Repeater Mode
+
+Repeater contacts (type=2) have a two-phase interaction:
+
+**Phase 1: Login (password mode)**
+- Input type changes to `password`
+- Button shows "Fetch" instead of "Send"
+- Enter "." for empty password (converted to empty string)
+- Submitting requests telemetry + logs in
+
+**Phase 2: CLI commands (after login)**
+- Input switches back to normal text
+- Placeholder shows "Enter CLI command..."
+- Commands sent via `/contacts/{key}/command` endpoint
+- Responses displayed as local messages (not persisted to database)
+
+```typescript
+// State tracking
+const [repeaterLoggedIn, setRepeaterLoggedIn] = useState(false);
+
+// Reset on conversation change
+useEffect(() => {
+  setRepeaterLoggedIn(false);
+}, [activeConversation?.id]);
+
+// Mode switches after successful telemetry
+const isRepeaterMode = activeContactIsRepeater && !repeaterLoggedIn;
+
+<MessageInput
+  onSend={isRepeaterMode ? handleTelemetryRequest :
+          (repeaterLoggedIn ? handleRepeaterCommand : handleSendMessage)}
+  isRepeaterMode={isRepeaterMode}
+  placeholder={repeaterLoggedIn ? 'Enter CLI command...' : undefined}
+/>
+```
+
+Telemetry response is displayed as three local messages (not persisted):
+1. **Telemetry** - Battery voltage, uptime, signal quality, packet stats
+2. **Neighbors** - Sorted by SNR (highest first), with resolved names
+3. **ACL** - Access control list with permission levels
+
+### Repeater Message Rendering
+
+Repeater CLI responses often contain colons (e.g., `clock: 12:30:00`). To prevent
+incorrect sender parsing, MessageList skips `parseSenderFromText()` for repeater contacts:
+
+```typescript
+const isRepeater = contact?.type === CONTACT_TYPE_REPEATER;
+const { sender, content } = isRepeater
+  ? { sender: null, content: msg.text }  // Preserve full text
+  : parseSenderFromText(msg.text);
+```
+
+### Unread Count Tracking
+
+Uses refs to avoid stale closures in memoized handlers:
+
+```typescript
+const activeConversationRef = useRef<Conversation | null>(null);
+
+// Keep ref in sync
+useEffect(() => {
+  activeConversationRef.current = activeConversation;
+}, [activeConversation]);
+
+// In WebSocket handler (can safely access current value)
+const activeConv = activeConversationRef.current;
+```
+
+### State Tracking Keys
+
+State tracking keys (for message times used in sidebar sorting) are generated by `getStateKey()`:
+
+```typescript
+import { getStateKey } from './utils/conversationState';
+
+// Channels: "channel-{channelKey}"
+getStateKey('channel', channelKey)  // e.g., "channel-8B3387E9C5CDEA6AC9E5EDBAA115CD72"
+
+// Contacts: "contact-{12-char-prefix}"
+getStateKey('contact', publicKey)   // e.g., "contact-abc123def456"
+```
+
+**Note:** `getStateKey()` is NOT the same as `Message.conversation_key`. The state key is prefixed
+for local state tracking, while `conversation_key` is the raw database field.
+
+### Read State (Server-Side)
+
+Unread tracking uses server-side `last_read_at` timestamps for cross-device consistency:
+
+```typescript
+// Fetch aggregated unread counts from server (replaces bulk message fetch + client-side counting)
+await api.getUnreads(myName);  // Returns { counts, mentions, last_message_times }
+
+// Mark as read via API (called automatically when viewing conversation)
+await api.markContactRead(publicKey);
+await api.markChannelRead(channelKey);
+await api.markAllRead();  // Bulk mark all as read
+```
+
+The `useUnreadCounts` hook fetches counts from `GET /api/read-state/unreads` on mount and
+when channels/contacts change. Real-time increments are still tracked client-side via WebSocket
+message events. The server computes unread counts using `last_read_at` vs `received_at`.
+
+## Utility Functions
+
+### Message Parser (`utils/messageParser.ts`)
+
+```typescript
+// Parse "sender: message" format from channel messages
+parseSenderFromText(text: string): { sender: string | null; content: string }
+
+// Format Unix timestamp to time string
+formatTime(timestamp: number): string
+```
+
+### Public Key Utilities (`utils/pubkey.ts`)
+
+Consistent handling of 64-char full keys and 12-char prefixes:
+
+```typescript
+import { getPubkeyPrefix, pubkeysMatch, getContactDisplayName } from './utils/pubkey';
+
+// Extract 12-char prefix (works with full keys or existing prefixes)
+getPubkeyPrefix(key)  // "abc123def456..."
+
+// Compare keys by prefix (handles mixed full/prefix comparisons)
+pubkeysMatch(key1, key2)  // true if prefixes match
+
+// Get display name with fallback to prefix
+getContactDisplayName(name, publicKey)  // name or first 12 chars of key
+```
+
+### Conversation State (`utils/conversationState.ts`)
+
+```typescript
+import { getStateKey, setLastMessageTime, getLastMessageTimes } from './utils/conversationState';
+
+// Generate state tracking key (NOT the same as Message.conversation_key)
+getStateKey('channel', channelKey)
+getStateKey('contact', publicKey)
+
+// Track message times for sidebar sorting (stored in localStorage)
+setLastMessageTime(stateKey, timestamp)
+getLastMessageTimes()  // Returns all tracked message times
+```
+
+**Note:** Read state (`last_read_at`) is tracked server-side, not in localStorage.
+
+### Contact Avatar (`utils/contactAvatar.ts`)
+
+Generates consistent profile "images" for contacts using hash-based colors:
+
+```typescript
+import { getContactAvatar, CONTACT_TYPE_REPEATER } from './utils/contactAvatar';
+
+// Get avatar info for a contact
+const avatar = getContactAvatar(name, publicKey, contactType);
+// Returns: { text: 'JD', background: 'hsl(180, 60%, 40%)', textColor: '#ffffff' }
+
+// Repeaters (type=2) always show 🛜 with gray background
+const repeaterAvatar = getContactAvatar('Some Repeater', key, CONTACT_TYPE_REPEATER);
+// Returns: { text: '🛜', background: '#444444', textColor: '#ffffff' }
+```
+
+Avatar text priority:
+1. First emoji in name
+2. Initials (first letter + first letter after space)
+3. Single first letter
+4. First 2 chars of public key (fallback)
+
+## CSS Patterns
+
+The app uses a minimal dark theme in `styles.css`.
+
+### Key Classes
+
+```css
+.app             /* Root container */
+.status-bar      /* Top bar with radio info */
+.sidebar         /* Left panel with contacts/channels */
+.sidebar-item    /* Individual contact/channel row */
+.sidebar-item.unread  /* Bold with badge */
+.message-area    /* Main content area */
+.message-list    /* Scrollable message container */
+.message         /* Individual message */
+.message.outgoing    /* Right-aligned, different color */
+.message .sender     /* Clickable sender name */
+```
+
+### Unread Badge
+
+```css
+.sidebar-item.unread .name {
+  font-weight: 700;
+  color: #fff;
+}
+.sidebar-item .unread-badge {
+  background: #4caf50;
+  color: #fff;
+  font-size: 10px;
+  padding: 2px 6px;
+  border-radius: 10px;
+}
+```
 
 ## Testing
 
-Run all quality checks (backend + frontend, parallelized) from the repo root:
-
-```bash
-./scripts/all_quality.sh
-```
-
-Or run frontend checks individually:
-
+Run tests with:
 ```bash
 cd frontend
-npm run test:run
-npm run build
+npm run test:run    # Single run
+npm run test        # Watch mode
 ```
 
-When touching cross-layer contracts, also run backend tests from repo root:
+### Test Files
+
+- `messageParser.test.ts` - Sender extraction, time formatting, conversation keys
+- `unreadCounts.test.ts` - Unread tracking logic
+- `contactAvatar.test.ts` - Avatar text extraction, color generation, repeater handling
+- `messageDeduplication.test.ts` - Message deduplication logic
+- `websocket.test.ts` - WebSocket message routing
+- `repeaterMode.test.ts` - Repeater CLI parsing, password "." conversion
+
+### Test Setup
+
+Tests use jsdom environment with `@testing-library/react`:
+
+```typescript
+// src/test/setup.ts
+import '@testing-library/jest-dom';
+```
+
+## Common Tasks
+
+### Adding a New Component
+
+1. Create component in `src/components/`
+2. Add TypeScript props interface
+3. Import and use in `App.tsx` or parent component
+4. Add styles to `styles.css`
+
+### Adding a New API Endpoint
+
+1. Add method to `api.ts`
+2. Add/update types in `types.ts`
+3. Call from `App.tsx` or component
+
+### Adding New WebSocket Event
+
+1. Add handler option to `UseWebSocketOptions` interface in `useWebSocket.ts`
+2. Add case to `onmessage` switch
+3. Provide handler in `wsHandlers` object in `App.tsx`
+
+### Adding State
+
+1. Add `useState` in `App.tsx`
+2. Pass down as props to components
+3. If needed in WebSocket handler, also use a ref to avoid stale closures
+
+## Development Workflow
 
 ```bash
-PYTHONPATH=. uv run pytest tests/ -v
+# Start dev server (hot reload)
+npm run dev
+
+# Build for production
+npm run build
+
+# Preview production build
+npm run preview
+
+# Run tests
+npm run test:run
 ```
 
-## Errata & Known Non-Issues
+The dev server runs on port 5173 and proxies API requests to `localhost:8000`.
 
-### RawPacketList always scrolls to bottom
+### Production Build
 
-`RawPacketList` unconditionally scrolls to the latest packet on every update. This is intentional — the packet feed is a live status display, not an interactive log meant for lingering or long-term analysis. Users watching it want to see the newest packet, not hold a scroll position.
+In production, the FastAPI backend serves the compiled frontend from `frontend/dist`:
 
-## Editing Checklist
+```bash
+npm run build
+# Then run backend: uv run uvicorn app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
+```
 
-1. If API/WS payloads change, update `types.ts`, handlers, and tests.
-2. If URL/hash behavior changes, update `utils/urlHash.ts` tests.
-3. If read/unread semantics change, update `useUnreadCounts` tests.
-4. Keep this file concise; prefer source links over speculative detail.
+## URL Hash Navigation
+
+Deep linking to conversations via URL hash:
+
+- `#channel/RoomName` - Opens a channel (leading `#` stripped from name for cleaner URLs)
+- `#contact/ContactName` - Opens a DM
+- `#raw` - Opens the raw packet feed
+- `#map` - Opens the node map
+
+```typescript
+// Parse hash on initial load
+const hashConv = parseHashConversation();
+
+// Update hash when conversation changes (uses replaceState to avoid history pollution)
+window.history.replaceState(null, '', newHash);
+```
+
+## CrackerPanel
+
+The `CrackerPanel` component provides WebGPU-accelerated brute-forcing of channel keys for undecrypted GROUP_TEXT packets.
+
+### Features
+
+- **Dictionary attack first**: Uses `words.txt` wordlist
+- **GPU bruteforce**: Falls back to character-by-character search
+- **Queue management**: Automatically processes new packets as they arrive
+- **Auto-channel creation**: Cracked channels are automatically added to the channel list
+- **Configurable max length**: Adjustable while running (default: 6)
+- **Retry failed**: Option to retry failed packets at increasing lengths
+- **NoSleep integration**: Prevents device sleep during cracking via `nosleep.js`
+- **Global collapsible panel**: Toggle from sidebar, runs in background when hidden
+
+### Key Implementation Patterns
+
+Uses refs to avoid stale closures in async callbacks:
+
+```typescript
+const isRunningRef = useRef(false);
+const isProcessingRef = useRef(false);  // Prevents concurrent GPU operations
+const queueRef = useRef<Map<number, QueueItem>>(new Map());
+const retryFailedRef = useRef(false);
+const maxLengthRef = useRef(6);
+```
+
+Progress reporting shows rate in Mkeys/s or Gkeys/s depending on speed.
+
+## MapView
+
+The `MapView` component displays contacts with GPS coordinates on an interactive Leaflet map.
+
+### Features
+
+- **Location filtering**: Only shows contacts with lat/lon that were heard within the last 7 days
+- **Freshness coloring**: Markers colored by how recently the contact was heard:
+  - Bright green (`#22c55e`) - less than 1 hour ago
+  - Light green (`#4ade80`) - less than 1 day ago
+  - Yellow-green (`#a3e635`) - less than 3 days ago
+  - Gray (`#9ca3af`) - older (up to 7 days)
+- **Node/repeater distinction**: Regular nodes have black outlines, repeaters are larger with no outline
+- **Geolocation**: Tries browser geolocation first, falls back to fitting all markers in view
+- **Popups**: Click a marker to see contact name, last heard time, and coordinates
+
+### Data Source
+
+Contact location data (`lat`, `lon`) is extracted from advertisement packets in the backend (`decoder.py`).
+The `last_seen` timestamp determines marker freshness.
+
+## Sidebar Features
+
+- **Sort toggle**: Default is 'recent' (most recent message first), can toggle to alphabetical
+- **Mark all as read**: Button appears when there are unread messages, clears all unread counts
+- **Cracker toggle**: Shows/hides the global cracker panel with running status indicator
+
+## Toast Notifications
+
+The app uses Sonner for toast notifications via a custom wrapper at `components/ui/sonner.tsx`:
+
+```typescript
+import { toast } from './components/ui/sonner';
+
+// Success toast (use sparingly - only for significant/destructive actions)
+toast.success('Channel deleted');
+
+// Error toast with details
+toast.error('Failed to send message', {
+  description: err instanceof Error ? err.message : 'Check radio connection',
+});
+```
+
+### Error Handling Pattern
+
+All async operations that can fail should show error toasts. Keep console.error for debugging:
+
+```typescript
+try {
+  await api.someOperation();
+} catch (err) {
+  console.error('Failed to do X:', err);
+  toast.error('Failed to do X', {
+    description: err instanceof Error ? err.message : 'Check radio connection',
+  });
+}
+```
+
+### Where Toasts Are Used
+
+**Error toasts** (shown when operations fail):
+- `App.tsx`: Advertisement, channel delete, contact delete
+- `useConversationMessages.ts`: Message loading (initial and pagination)
+- `MessageInput.tsx`: Message send, telemetry request
+- `CrackerPanel.tsx`: Channel save after cracking, WebGPU unavailable
+- `StatusBar.tsx`: Manual reconnection failure
+- `useWebSocket.ts`: Backend errors via WebSocket `error` events
+
+**Success toasts** (used sparingly for significant actions):
+- Radio connection/disconnection status changes
+- Manual reconnection success
+- Advertisement sent, channel/contact deleted (confirmation of intentional actions)
+
+**Avoid success toasts** for routine operations like sending messages - only show errors.
+
+The `<Toaster />` component is rendered in `App.tsx` with `position="top-right"`.

+The "Shuffle layout" button randomizes all node positions (except self, which stays centered) and reheats the simulation to alpha=1. This lets users try different random starting configurations to find a cleaner layout.

 ### Ambiguous Nodes
 
-When only a 1-byte prefix is known (from packet path bytes), the node is marked ambiguous and shown with a `?` prefix and gray styling. However, if the node is identified as a repeater (via advert or path hop), it shows blue regardless of ambiguity.
-
-### Advert-Path Identity Hints
-
-**Problem:** When multiple repeaters share a 1-byte prefix, the visualizer can't tell which physical repeater a path hop refers to.
-
-**Solution:** The backend tracks recent unique advertisement paths per contact in `contact_advert_paths` (see root `AGENTS.md` § "Contact Advert Path Memory"). On mount (and when new contacts appear), the visualizer fetches this data via `GET /api/contacts/repeaters/advert-paths` and builds an index keyed by 12-char prefix.
-
-**Scoring:** `pickLikelyRepeaterByAdvertPath(candidates, nextPrefix)` scores each candidate repeater by how often its stored advert paths' `next_hop` matches the packet's actual next-hop prefix. It requires:
-
-- At least 2 matching observations (stronger-than-trivial evidence)
-- The top candidate's match score must be at least 2x the runner-up's
-
-When a winner is found, the ambiguous node gets a `probableIdentity` label (the likely repeater's name) and the display name updates accordingly. The remaining candidates are listed as "Other possible" in the tooltip.
-
-**Interaction with traffic splitting:** Advert-path hints run first. If a probable identity is found, the display name is set. Traffic splitting can still produce separate node IDs (`?XX:>YY`), but won't overwrite the advert-path display name.
-
-**Toggle:** "Use repeater advert-path identity hints" checkbox (enabled by default, disabled when ambiguous repeaters are hidden).

+## Canvas Rendering
+
+### Coordinate Transformation
+
+Pan and zoom are applied via transform matrix:
+
+```typescript
+ctx.setTransform(dpr * scale, 0, 0, dpr * scale, dpr * (x + panX), dpr * (y + panY));
+```
+
+### Render Order
+
+1. Clear canvas with background
+2. Draw links (gray lines)
+3. Draw particles (colored dots with labels)
+4. Draw nodes (circles with emojis)
+5. Draw hover tooltip if applicable
 
 ## Mouse Interactions
 
-| Action                     | Behavior                                    |
-| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------- |
-| Left-click on node         | Pin: highlight node + links + neighbors     |
-| Left-click pinned node     | Unpin: remove highlights                    |
-| Left-click empty space     | Unpin any pinned node                       |
-| Hover over node            | Shows tooltip with node details + neighbors |
-| Orbit (left-drag on space) | Rotate camera around scene                  |
-| Pan (right-drag)           | Pan the camera                              |
-| Scroll wheel               | Zoom in/out                                 |
+| Action                     | Behavior                                         |
+| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------ |
+| Click + drag on node       | Move node to new position (temporarily fixes it) |
+| Release dragged node       | Node returns to force-directed layout            |
+| Click + drag on empty area | Pan the canvas                                   |
+| Scroll wheel               | Zoom in/out                                      |
+| Hover over node            | Shows node details, cursor changes to pointer    |
 
-**Click-to-pin:** When a node is pinned, hovering other nodes does not change the highlight. The tooltip shows "Traffic exchanged with:" listing all connected neighbors with their possible names.
+**Node Dragging Implementation:**
+
+- On mouse down over a node, sets `fx`/`fy` (D3 fixed position) to lock it
+- On mouse move, updates the fixed position to follow cursor
+- On mouse up, clears `fx`/`fy` so node rejoins the simulation
+- Simulation is slightly reheated during drag for responsive feedback

 ## Performance Considerations
 
-- **Observation window**: Configurable (default 15s) to balance latency vs. path aggregation
-- **Persistent geometries**: Links/highlights/particles are created once; buffers are updated per frame to reduce GC/GPU churn
+- **Observation window**: 2 seconds balances latency vs. path aggregation
+- **Max links**: Capped at 100 to prevent graph explosion
 - **Particle culling**: Particles removed when progress > 1
-- **Change-detected React updates**: Hover + neighbor UI state updates only when values change
+- **Node filtering**: Old repeaters can be hidden to reduce clutter
 - **requestAnimationFrame**: Render loop tied to display refresh rate
-- **CSS2DRenderer z-index**: Set to 1 so UI overlays (z-10) render above node labels
+
+## Future Improvements
+
+The data/rendering split enables:
+
+- WebGL rendering for larger graphs
+- 3D visualization
+- Different layout algorithms
+- Export to other formats
