SNR precedes the hop hash: 12.50 > [5e]12.25 > [d1]-8.25 > [e7]-3.00
(each SNR shows link quality, hash shows the next relay node)

- trace: accepts comma-separated hex path (e.g. "trace 5e,d1,e7"),
waits for TRACE_DATA response with proper timeout from device
- stats: fix field names (uptime_secs, queue_len, battery_mv, etc.),
show all radio/packet stats with detail breakdown
- self_telemetry: format LPP sensor data nicely instead of raw dict
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- req_regions: library returns string, not dict — was crashing
with "'str' object has no attribute 'items'"
- req_owner: format like meshcore-cli ("X is owned by Y")
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- get help / set help: detailed parameter descriptions with
explanations, matching meshcore-cli style
- get path_hash_mode: library returns int not Event, fixed check
- set help: now reachable (was behind len(args)>=3 guard)

Was using self_info (which has no firmware data). Now uses
send_device_query() like meshcore-cli, showing model, version,
build date and repeat mode.

- req_clock: parse timestamp from binary hex data (little-endian)
and display as human-readable datetime, matching meshcore-cli
- req_neighbours: new command that fetches neighbour list from
repeater with formatted output (name resolution from device
contacts and DB cache, time ago, SNR)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Clock command now shows datetime like meshcore-cli: "Current time: 2026-03-19 11:39:07 (1773916747)"
- Repeater req_* commands: pass timeout=0 to meshcore library so it uses
device's suggested_timeout instead of hardcoded 30s (matching meshcore-cli behavior)
- Execute timeout raised to 120s to accommodate slow repeater responses

Add device management: get/set params, clock/clock sync, time,
reboot, ver, scope, self_telemetry, node_discover.
Add channel management: get_channel, set_channel, add_channel,
remove_channel. Update help text with all command categories.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add 9 new console commands for repeater management:
login, logout, cmd, req_status, req_regions, req_owner,
req_acl, req_clock, req_mma. Add resolve_contact helper
and _parse_time_arg utility. Update help text with categories.

Path buffer from firmware contains trailing garbage bytes beyond the
actual hop data. out_path_len encodes both hop count (lower 6 bits)
and hash size (upper 2 bits). Now we:
- Truncate out_path to meaningful bytes (hop_count * hash_size)
- Format as readable E7→DE→54→54→D8 instead of raw hex string
- Show hop count derived from actual path arrows
Example: out_path_len=5 with out_path="e7de5454d81c49dfb86f8a"
now correctly displays as "E7→DE→54→54→D8 (5 hops)" instead of
showing the full 11-byte buffer.

- Console `contacts` now shows device-only contacts with path info
(matching meshcore-cli format: name, type, pubkey, path)
- New `contacts_all` command shows all contacts (device + cached from DB)
- Contact cards in UI now always show routing mode for device contacts
(Flood, Direct 0 hop, or hex path with hop count)
- Fix path_or_mode computation: prioritize out_path over out_path_len
to handle firmware edge case where out_path exists but out_path_len=-1

The /chat namespace had no server-side connect handler registered. With
python-socketio 5.x (always_connect=False), client connections to
unregistered namespaces are silently rejected. This caused all SocketIO
events (new_message, ack, echo) to never reach the frontend — messages
only appeared via the 60s polling fallback.
Fixes:
- Add @socketio.on('connect', namespace='/chat') handler in main.py
- Add optimistic message append: sent messages appear instantly before
API round-trip (eliminates 3-4s serial command delay)
- Skip own-message SocketIO events to prevent duplicates
- Add connect_error handler for frontend debugging
- Bump SW cache to v6

Firmware reports MAX_GROUP_CHANNELS (typically 40 for companion builds)
in the DEVICE_INFO response. Fetch it at startup and use it in all
channel iteration loops. Previously hardcoded range(8) prevented
channels 8+ from appearing and blocked adding new channels.

- Add daily retention job that deletes old channel messages, DMs, and
advertisements based on configurable age threshold
- Add GET/POST /api/retention-settings endpoints
- Extend cleanup_old_messages() to optionally include DMs and adverts
- Wire up APScheduler in create_app() (also enables existing archiving
and contact cleanup schedulers that were never started in v2)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add 'status' command: connection, name, battery, contacts count
- Add 'channels' command: list configured channels (0-7)
- Add 'help' command: list all available commands with descriptions
- Update unknown command message to suggest 'help'

Reads the existing .msgs JSONL file and imports channel messages and DMs
into the v2 SQLite database. Runs automatically when device connects and
DB is empty. Handles sender parsing, pubkey resolution, and FK constraints.

main.py: Initialize Database + DeviceManager in create_app(), replace
bridge-dependent startup code, simplified console command router.
cli.py: All functions now delegate to DeviceManager instead of HTTP
bridge calls. Same signatures preserved for api.py compatibility.

Contacts cache accumulates all known node names from device contacts
and adverts into a JSONL file, so @mentions work even after contacts
are removed from the device. Background thread scans adverts every
45s and parses advert payloads to extract public keys and node names.
Existing Contacts page now shows merged view with "Cache" badge for
contacts not on device, plus source filter (All/On device/Cache only).

The background thread now retries with exponential backoff (5s→60s)
instead of giving up after 3 attempts. Also accepts detected device
name from bridge even when bridge health status is unhealthy.

Added req_status, req_neighbours, and trace commands with 15s timeout
as they communicate with repeaters and need time for responses.

Strip leading whitespace before checking if line starts with '{' to

The werkzeug development server produces "write() before start_response"
errors during WebSocket upgrade. These are cosmetic - the connection
still works via Socket.IO retry. Added a logging filter to suppress
these errors for cleaner logs.

JSON lines with payload_typename (internal mesh protocol data like
CONTROL packets) are now filtered out from console output, showing
only the human-readable results.

- version.py now captures and exports GIT_BRANCH
- Display branch badge next to version in menu (e.g., "2026.01.20+abc1234 [dev]")
- /api/version now returns branch field
- /api/check-update uses frozen branch instead of hardcoded "dev"
- Allows proper update checking for both dev and main branches

Bridge now detects device name from meshcli prompt ("DeviceName|*")
and exposes it via /health endpoint. mc-webui fetches this at startup
and uses RuntimeConfig for dynamic device name throughout the app.
Fallback chain: prompt detection → .infos command → MC_DEVICE_NAME env var

gevent async_mode requires monkey-patching at startup and was causing
6-12s page load times (vs 1-2s before). Threading mode doesn't require
special setup and is sufficient for occasional Console commands.
- Change async_mode from 'gevent' to 'threading'
- Remove gevent/gevent-websocket from requirements (bridge has its own)

Background tasks lose socket context, so emit() doesn't work.
Fixed by capturing socket ID and using socketio.emit(room=sid).

Browser blocks mixed content (HTTPS page -> HTTP WebSocket on port 5001).
Solution: Route WebSocket through main Flask app which goes through
existing HTTPS reverse proxy.
- Add Flask-SocketIO to main mc-webui app
- WebSocket handler proxies commands to bridge via HTTP
- Remove port 5001 external exposure (no longer needed)
- Remove duplicate title from console header
