@@ -56,6 +56,14 @@ Guidelines:
Counter-example to avoid: storing `char rssiStr_[12]` and re-`snprintf`'ing `"-58 dBm"` into it every tick. The right shape is `int8_t rssi_` (1 byte) plus a control type that knows the unit. Saves 11 bytes per metric, scales linearly across the codebase.
+**A dropdown's values have names.** A Select control's member holds an index into its options, so the code that reads or sets it says which option it means, never a bare number.
+Declare a plain `enum Name : uint8_t { kNameFirst, ..., kNameCount }` in the class, its members in the options' order, next to the options array it indexes, and pass its count to `addSelect`.
+The enum costs no flash, since the compiler folds each name to its number.
+It keeps the count beside the options: a new option is a new enum member and a new array entry, so the count passed to `addSelect` follows.
+Where an enum for the values already exists, such as `Addressing` or `platform::EthPhyType`, use it rather than declaring a second one.
+A test sets the control by the same names.
+See [MidiService.h](../src/core/services/MidiService.h): `profile == kProfileApc40`, not `profile == 1`.
+
**Width the intermediate, and the result follows.** Any `a * b` where both operands are `nrOfLightsType`, or a count times a multiplier, can overflow `uint16_t` even when each operand is small: `256 * 256 = 65536` wraps to 0 on a no-PSRAM device. Do the arithmetic in a wider type, clamp to the ceiling, then narrow. A counter derived from a cell count is the domain typedef too, never a fixed `uint16_t`. Such a path is invisible on the uint32 desktop build, so pin it with a `uint16`-typed unit test or hardware confirmation.
**When a validation field's storage is narrower than what it claims to validate, the validation is wrong, not the field.** A `uint8_t` min/max slot can't bound an `Int16` control, clamping it to `[0..0]`. The fix is a wider bound, or per-type bound slots; until then the constraint is documented at the field's declaration.

**The appendix budget counts a SECTION, not the whole appendix.** A single total punishes a file for having several distinct topics. The cheapest way to satisfy one is to delete a section rather than tighten the prose. Ten lines per `## ` section asks each one to be disciplined and lets a file carry as many as it genuinely has. That is what an implementation file needs: the platform backends each hold a handful of separately diagnosed findings, and one shared budget could only force them out of the tree. A fenced block does not count, the same exemption the no-wrap rule makes. A protocol listing is as long as the thing it describes, and counting its lines would ask an author to delete wire format to fit a prose budget.

A list item, a heading, a table row and a fenced block are structure rather than a wrapped sentence, and each is left alone.

## The update cycle
-The update cycle runs in three moves. The app stages the install URL in NVS, or nothing for a browser upload, points the bootloader at MoonBase and reboots. MoonBase joins the app's known networks in their priority order. Failing that, it opens the device's access point at 4.3.2.1, under the device's name and password, so a phone on it stays on. It then installs into the single app slot, either from the staged URL unattended or from an upload. Then it reboots back. The UI covers the whole cycle with one "updating firmware" overlay, telling the two images apart via `GET /moonbase` (MoonBase answers with its live status; the app 404s it). Pointing the bootloader at a factory partition *erases* otadata. A power cut anywhere mid-install then boots MoonBase, which resumes a staged install by itself, a stronger power-fail story than dual-OTA's. It stops after three installs that reset the device.

It is distinct from **`deviceName`**, *which individual unit this is* (per-unit identity the user sets, see [Device name](mooncore.md#device-name-one-identity-every-network-name-derives-from-it)); a **device** (the umbrella term) has a `deviceName` and a `deviceModel`.
-- **board**, the bare PCB *only*. The word survives in its literal sense: **on-board** LED, **on-board** peripherals, board-soldered pins, things physically *on the PCB*. (A deviceModel is a board plus whatever is wired onto it.)
+The words firmware, deviceModel, board and device are defined once, in [the words for hardware](../../contributing/documentation-standards.md#the-words-for-hardware). A deviceModel is *which hardware this is*; a `deviceName` is *which individual unit this is* (see [Device name](mooncore.md#device-name-one-identity-every-network-name-derives-from-it)). The installer works with the first two:
**Firmware** is the compiled binary: chip target plus which radios, peripherals and sdkconfig fragments are included. One chip's firmware carries every Ethernet driver that chip can host; which PHY and pins a device model uses is runtime configuration. The variants themselves are listed in [firmware variants](../../reference/hardware/firmware-variants.md#firmware-variants).
-**deviceModel** is the physical hardware: chip + PCB + on-board peripherals (PHY, USB-serial, PSRAM, antenna), identified by its product name. Examples: `Olimex ESP32-Gateway Rev G`, `LOLIN D32`, `Generic ESP32 Dev`. A unit cannot identify its own deviceModel (no readable PCB ID on classic ESP32), so MoonDeck deduces it from the firmware where unambiguous (`esp32-eth*` ⇒ Olimex) and otherwise lets the user pick. It is stored on the unit as SystemModule's `deviceModel` Text control (display-only in the UI; HTTP `/api/control` writes still apply). MoonDeck mirrors the picked / deduced value to the unit via `POST /api/control` after each discover and after every dropdown change. The catalog of valid deviceModels lives at [mooninstaller/deviceModels.json](../../mooninstaller/deviceModels.json), shared between MoonDeck and the web installer. MoonDeck reads it for its dropdown and HTTP push over plain REST on the LAN. The web installer reads it for its picker and pushes the whole entry, deviceModel plus every module/control, over serial during provisioning as REST ops (**"Improv = REST over serial"**, the `APPLY_OP` vendor RPC; see [ImprovProvisioningModule.md](../../moonmodules/core/moxygen/ImprovProvisioningModule.md)). Pushing over serial sidesteps the mixed-content block that stops an HTTPS installer page from POSTing to an `http://` device; an already-running device is re-configured via MoonDeck on the LAN. **`SET_BOARD` carries only the board name**, and every other field ships over HTTP after WiFi association. Do not extend its wire format: that couples unrelated controls to the board-name lifecycle and hides the timing constraint. A pre-association control gets either its own vendor RPC dispatched before the credentials, or a board-specific sdkconfig fragment when the value is truly board-static.

A deviceModel can run multiple firmwares (the Olimex Gateway runs both `esp32-eth` and the default `esp32`); a firmware can run on multiple deviceModels (`esp32` runs on any classic ESP32 dev kit). The `esp32s3-n16r8` firmware is S3-only and does not run on the Olimex Gateway or other classic-ESP32 hardware. The codebase reserves "deviceModel" exclusively for the physical product and "firmware" exclusively for the compiled binary.

Firmware cannot detect whether a switch snoops, so **multicast is never an automatic upgrade here**. sACN multicast is an opt-in for someone who knows their switch, and unicast stays the portable default. What firmware can detect is a network that drops multicast altogether, the access point or switch that forgets a group. Discovery is the probe, since every device both sends and receives there. For two minutes after boot, presence goes out both ways with each copy marked. Three broadcast copies in a row from one peer, with no multicast copy between, prove the group does not arrive, even where it once did. That sets one flag, and from then every occasional multicast send adds a broadcast copy: presence and OSC feedback. A steady stream never does, light or audio, since a broadcast copy per packet would load every device on the LAN. An E1.31 multicast output says so on its card instead. A multicast copy arriving from any peer clears the flag again.
+A network can also forget one member while others keep hearing. A router that snoops can stop forwarding a group to a station it has not heard from, which stops a stream on that one board. So a socket that joined a group and hears nothing for 3 seconds joins again, at most every 3 seconds, which re-announces the membership. Every multicast receiver gets it from the platform socket: audio, OSC and discovery.

Network-based drivers (ArtNet, E1.31, DDP) pace their output with a **non-blocking elapsed-time gate**, never a blocking wait (no `delay`/`vTaskDelay`, that would stall the single-threaded tick, the hot-path rule). The gate is the `lastSendTime`/`millis()` pattern: `if (now − lastSendTime < interval) return;` early-exits the tick so every other module's loop keeps running, exactly how FPS limiting works (`NetworkSendDriver`, `fps` control). **Frame-rate pacing is required** and implemented this way. **Inter-packet pacing**, spacing the universes within one frame, uses the same non-blocking gate where a receiver drops packets under a burst. It is off by default, since the bench ArtNet matrix test runs clean while bursting the universes, so it is added only when a target requires it, never as a busy-wait between packets.

Control values and each module's `enabled` flag are persisted to flash so settings survive a reboot. The mechanism lives in [FilesystemModule](../../moonmodules/core/moxygen/FilesystemModule.md):
-- **Storage**: one flat JSON file per top-level module under `/.config/.json`. Children are encoded positionally with `.` key prefixes, a deliberately flat file shape loaded by the cheap first-match key helpers in `core/JsonUtil.h`. A control whose *value* is structured, such as a List control's array of objects, round-trips that array with the recursive reader in the same header through its own restore hook. The file's top level stays flat, and the structure lives inside one control's value.
-- **Lifecycle**: the five phases the diagram above draws, read from persistence's side. `defineControls` binds every module's control set. The load hook then overlays persisted values onto those variables, and `rebuildControls` re-evaluates conditional `hidden` flags against the loaded state. Each module's own `setup()` runs with the values already in place, and `applyState` sizes the buffers. The fifth phase exists for persistence alone: a control that appears only once `prepare` has run, such as one a MoonLive script declares, had nothing to land on during the load, so saved values are re-applied once at the end. Modules themselves know nothing about persistence; they bind their variables.
+- **Storage**: one file per top-level module under `/.config/.json`, holding that module's [state document](../../reference/integrating.md#setting-everything-at-once), the shape a preset and `PATCH /api/state` carry, with the module's secrets in it since the file never leaves the device. Children are keyed by name, so a file applies through the same engine as every other document, as a stored file: a type this build lacks and a key no control matches are skipped and logged, and a value clamps to its control's bounds.
+- **Lifecycle**: the five phases the diagram above draws, read from persistence's side. `defineControls` binds every module's control set. The load hook then applies each file, creating children with their controls bound and setting values twice around a `rebuildControls`, so a control set that depends on a value (a driver's `peripheral`) restores. Each module's own `setup()` runs with the values already in place, and `applyState` sizes the buffers. The fifth phase sets the controls a MoonLive script declares as it compiles, which the load held until then. Modules themselves know nothing about persistence; they bind their variables.
- **Save trigger**: HttpServerModule marks the target module dirty on every successful control mutation. FilesystemModule debounces 2 s in `tick1s()`, walks the tree, writes any subtree containing a dirty descendant via atomic write-and-rename.
- **Conditional controls**: every conditional control is always bound; the module sets a `hidden` flag (`controls_.setHidden(i, …)`) to tell the UI not to render it. The load path can therefore find persisted values regardless of the live conditional state.
-- **Code-wired children survive a stale file**: some children aren't created by the user; `main.cpp`'s boot wiring attaches them (`ImprovProvisioningModule` under `NetworkModule`; `NetworkSendDriver`, `PreviewDriver` under their parents). Each such child calls `markWiredByCode()` after `addChild()`, a one-bit flag meaning *"I belong here because the code put me here, not because a saved file or a user asked for me."* The problem it solves is a trim on load. Persistence reconciles the live tree against the saved JSON, so a child that exists in code but is absent from an older file, written before that child was added, would be dropped. The flag tells the apply step to keep it. Children added through the HTTP API or recreated from JSON stay unmarked; those follow the file's tree shape exactly, so UI deletes still take effect.

-Persistence reaches the Scheduler through a **function-pointer hook**, `setLoadAllHook`, which the load phase calls when set. FilesystemModule registers its load routine there at startup, so the Scheduler never names FilesystemModule: no circular dependency, persistence stays optional, and a null hook means defaults only. The format is a flat POD image rather than JSON, and the load runs before setup.

+# Playing an effect while a button is held
+
+A button that shows an effect for as long as it is held, and drops back to a standby effect when it is let go.
+A magician's quick-change tricks, a foot pedal on a stage, a "press for sparkle" button on a sculpture: each is the same setup, done with configuration only.
+
+> New here? Start with **[Install & first light](../gettingstarted.md)**. What follows assumes MoonLight is running and the buttons are wired to GPIOs.
+
+---
+
+## How it works
+
+Three pieces, each already on every board:
+
+- **Layers stack.** A bottom layer, Standby, always shows. Above it, one layer per trick has its `opacity` at 0, so it shows nothing until its opacity rises.
+- **The [Control](../moonmodules/core/system.md#control) card's faders** each drive one control. Fader 1 drives `Trick1.opacity`, fader 2 `Trick2.opacity`, and so on.
+- **The [Button](../moonmodules/core/services.md#button) service** turns a GPIO into a surface control. A row of kind `set` writes its `value` while the button is held and 0 when it is released.
+
+Held, button 1 puts 255 on fader 1, so Trick1 covers Standby. Released, fader 1 goes to 0 and Standby shows again. Every effect keeps running and stays adjustable on the fly, so nothing is timed the way a playlist is.
+
+---
+
+## Setting it up
+
+The whole setup is one state document, sent once with `PATCH /api/state`, or built by hand in the UI.
+This one has two tricks on GPIO 4 and 5. The effects, the pins and the number of tricks are yours to change, up to the eight faders the Control card has.
+
+```json
+{
+ "Effects": {
+ "$patch": "replace",
+ "Standby": { "type": "Layer", "Noise": { "type": "NoiseEffect" } },
+ "Trick1": { "type": "Layer", "opacity": 0, "Spiral": { "type": "SpiralEffect" } },
+ "Trick2": { "type": "Layer", "opacity": 0, "Fire": { "type": "FireEffect" } }
+ },
+ "Control": { "fader1Target": "Trick1.opacity", "fader2Target": "Trick2.opacity" },
+ "Services": {
+ "Buttons": {
+ "type": "ButtonService",
+ "buttons": [
+ { "pin": 4, "activeLow": true, "target": "Control.fader1", "kind": "set", "value": 255 },
+ { "pin": 5, "activeLow": true, "target": "Control.fader2", "kind": "set", "value": 255 }
+ ]
+ }
+ }
+}
+```
+
+```bash
+curl -X PATCH -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d @hold-to-play.json http:///api/state
+```
+
+`activeLow` is on for a button wired to ground; the Button card's `pressed` readout shows each press before anything is bound to it.
+
+---
+
+## Choosing the buttons
+
+| What you hold | Works | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| Wired buttons or a foot pedal | yes | each is a contact on a GPIO, with a press and a release |
+| A wireless RF remote whose receiver has momentary outputs, such as a 433 MHz module with 4 or 8 channels | yes | the receiver's outputs are wired to the GPIOs and act as buttons |
+| An infrared remote | no | it reports a press but no release, so nothing would clear the trick |
+
+---
+
+## Going further
+
+- **A softer change:** a `value` below 255 blends the trick over Standby instead of covering it.
+- **Logic of its own**, such as another standby after a certain trick, or a sequence on one press: a [MoonLive service](../moonmodules/core/services.md#moonliveservice) script drives the same controls.

+# Migrating a device to MoonLight over the air
+
+A device running another firmware moves to MoonLight over WiFi, through that firmware's own update page, with no cable and no opening the case.
+It keeps its WiFi network, and usually its address.
+
+The file you upload is the migration image, a small program that runs once.
+It writes MoonBase (MoonLight's installer) and MoonLight's partition table and restarts into MoonBase, all in about ten seconds, and from WLED it carries the WiFi network over.
+MoonBase then installs MoonLight from the release.
+
+
+
+## What can move
+
+| From | Chip | Status |
+|---|---|---|
+| WLED | ESP32-C3 with 4 MB of flash | verified on WLED 0.15.0, other versions should work; the WiFi comes along |
+| Another firmware, such as ESPHome or Tasmota | ESP32-C3 with 4 MB of flash | untested. It needs the old firmware to accept the upload, and the image to land clear of where MoonBase goes or find a second app slot to move into. MoonBase starts on its access point |
+
+A migration image is built for one chip, so the chip decides which file fits.
+
+## Steps, with WLED as the example
+
+1. Check the chip: in WLED it is on the **Info** page.
+2. Download the migration image for that chip from [the latest MoonLight release](https://github.com/MoonModules/MoonLight/releases): `shared-migrate-esp32c3.bin` for an ESP32-C3.
+3. Upload it through the old firmware's update page.
+ In WLED that is **Config → Security & Updates → Manual OTA Update**: choose the file and press **Update**.
+ Keep the power on for the next ten seconds.
+4. The device restarts as **MoonBase**, on the same WiFi.
+ Open its address in a browser.
+ If it is not on your network, it could not carry the WiFi over and opens an access point named `MM-` and four digits of its MAC, such as `MM-9600`: join it and set your WiFi there.
+5. In MoonBase, pick the firmware of the release for the chip and press **Install**.
+ MoonLight starts on the same WiFi.
+6. Set the light up as on any device: the drivers, the layout, the effects.
+ A bulb with five PWM channels, such as the Athom 12W, is the catalog's **ESP32-C3 RGBWW PWM bulb**.
+ It takes the **PWM Light** driver with its five pins, the `RGBCCT` fixture, and a 1×1 grid.
+ The device catalog, [`deviceModels.json`](https://github.com/MoonModules/MoonLight/blob/main/mooninstaller/deviceModels.json), holds the settings of every board MoonLight knows.
+
+## What can stop it
+
+Before it writes anything, the migration image checks that it can finish: enough flash, no flash encryption or secure boot, room to move itself out of the way.
+When a check fails, it restarts the old firmware with nothing changed.
+So a device that cannot move keeps working as it was:
+
+- The old firmware refuses the upload. A newer WLED checks an upload's release name until its option to skip that check is ticked, and an update password or a locked update refuses it too.
+- The migration image refuses the board, and the old firmware comes back.
+- The WiFi is not where the image looks, and MoonBase opens its access point.
+
+One moment needs care: for about 50 milliseconds in the middle, the image rewrites the partition table.
+A power cut in exactly that window leaves the device needing a USB cable to recover, which on a bulb means opening it.
+A power cut at any other moment comes back on its own: the image starts over, or MoonBase takes over.
+
+Going back to the old firmware also needs a USB cable, since MoonBase installs MoonLight only.
+
+**The migration is at your own risk.**
+It is tested on the devices named above, and another device can differ from them in ways the image cannot check.
+A device that needs a cable may have to be opened, which can void its warranty.

+An installation is several MoonLight devices that act as one piece: one creature, one sculpture, one room.
+The worked example is the StadBeest, a walking beast whose legs, eyes and mouth run on four devices.
Each section names a choice that makes it work; borrow what fits your own piece.
+> **Start simple.** The StadBeest shows most of what MoonLight can do in one piece, so it can look overwhelmingly complex.
+> An installation needs far less to act as one piece:
+>
+> - One device, one effect, a layout sized to the part: a piece in itself.
+> - Two or three devices, each running its own effect, all hearing the same music: they move on one beat with no link between them.
+> - One of them leading over OSC: one slider or desk steers them all.
+>
+> Start with the first, see it run, and add the next step only when you miss it. The autopilot, the desk, the looks and the mouth came last, one at a time.

**Move few things at once.**
In a real walk most legs stand still while one or two lift.

A creature reads as alive when the eye can follow what moves.

+A gaze that jumps to its next target reads as a glitch; one that eases there reads as an eye.

+The ten legs stand in a ring, so a second layer on the legs device, the orb, places leg *n* at *n* × 36° on a circle.

+Each leg lights where it crosses the shape's shell, so flat strips draw a solid in the air.
+The eyes show the same shape through a window: `stadbeest-eye-orb` takes the orb's controls and draws where the shell crosses the disc, scaled so the disc spans the legs' height.

+**Let the medium carry the physics.**
+In the thrusters look each leg is a rocket's plume, a [particle](../moonmodules/light/moonlive.md#the-vocabulary) stream pouring down from the body.
+The sparks leave the nozzle almost at rest and fall, so they stay on their one-light-wide leg, and a plume's length is how long its sparks live.
+Louder music burns longer and every beat fires a burst; without music the thrusters fire short bursts around the ring, and every fourth burst all of them.

+## 4. One surface layout for every device
+
+Each device's [Control](../moonmodules/core/system.md#control) card is a desk of eight faders, eight encoders and eight switches.
+The first slot of each bank is the device's own.
+From the second on the desk follows the look that runs: automap puts that effect's controls on the slots in the order it declares them.
+
+
+
+Every StadBeest effect that hears music declares `bpm`, `sensitivity` and `pulse` first, so those slots mean the same on the legs and on the eyes in every look.
+The rest are the look's own: on the walk `fader4` is `swing`, on the frog eye it is `pupil`.
+A slot assigned by hand keeps its target, which is how the look switches and the autopilot stay put.
+
+| slot | legs | each eye | mouth |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `switch1` | `Drivers.on` | `Drivers.on` | `Drivers.on` |
+| `switch2` | `pulse` | `pulse` | `pulse` |
+| `switch3` | `walk.enabled` | `frog-eye.enabled` | |
+| `switch4` | `orb.enabled` | `eye-orb.enabled` | |

+| `fader4` and on | the look's next numbers | the look's next numbers | `rest` |
+| `encoder1` | `Drivers.palette` | `Drivers.palette` | `Drivers.palette` |
+| `encoder2` and on | the look's choices, such as the orb's `shape` | the same | |
+
+A slot holds the value of the control it drives, so `fader2` at 33 means `bpm` 33.
+Each look is an effect of its own on every device, named after its script without the `stadbeest-` prefix, and `switch3` to `switch5` turn them on and off through their `enabled`.
+So one switch changes the look on the legs and on both eyes at once, and the desk follows it.
+Assign a slot by hand from the card, or with `POST /api/control` and `{"module":"Control","control":"switch3Target","value":"walk.enabled"}`.

+ A router that snoops without asking members again forgets them: on the Slate AX a board lost the group 18 seconds after joining it.
+ The audio then stopped every 20 seconds, and an eye missed the leader's palette changes.
+ With a few small streams on a dedicated network, sending multicast to every device costs nothing worth saving.
+- **An address reservation per device** (Network, LAN), so the addresses above stay the same.
+ The leader's MIDI `host` is the bridge's address, and a host setting also takes a name, but a name resolves by mDNS, which is multicast again.
-- Compare the new image's size with the `partition` total on the board's Firmware card.
-- A board with two app slots takes `POST /api/firmware/upload` directly.
-- A 4 MB board has one app slot: `POST /api/firmware/moonbase` restarts it into MoonBase, its recovery image, which then takes the upload and restarts into the new firmware ([updating firmware](updating-firmware.md)).
-- Update one board, see it run, then the next.
+A device that stops hearing a group joins it again after 3 seconds of silence, so a network that drops multicast now and then recovers on its own.
+For a stream on a network you do not control, unicast is the reliable choice: each copy is acknowledged and retried, where multicast goes out unacknowledged at the slowest rate.
+Set the source's Audio `addressing` to `unicast` with the devices in `hosts`; the same holds for Art-Net, E1.31 and DDP from [Network Send](../moonmodules/light/drivers.md#networksend).

The service invites it, and asks again every second until it answers, so either side may start first. With `host` empty the service waits to be invited, as a Mac's Audio MIDI Setup does when its Network window connects to the device. Windows does the same with the free rtpMIDI driver. The greeting, the surface and the touch handling are those of a desk on the device's own USB port, so a desk behaves the same whichever cable it is on.

+**Sharing a desk.** With `source` on USB and `share` on, the desk on this device's USB port drives nothing here: the device is a MIDI cable over the network, as a bought RTP-MIDI interface is, and the device the desk drives invites it. That device names it in `host` by address or by name, `.local`, since a device waiting to be invited announces itself over Bonjour as `_apple-midi._udp`; a Mac lists it in Audio MIDI Setup's Network window the same way. The device passes each message on unchanged, both ways. The one exception is a SysEx the desk sends, which its USB side does not pass on, as with a desk on USB; the greeting SysEx from the host reaches the desk. It accepts a session only while a desk is plugged in, so a desk plugged in later is greeted: the host invites again until the bridge says yes. One host at a time: a second is refused while the first holds the session. The host's status says why it was refused: `no desk`, `in use`, or `it invites` when the device it invited has a `host` of its own. A lost message is not repaired, since the next fader message replaces it and a lost press is pressed again; sent packets carry no recovery journal, and a received one is skipped.

Multicast is also the better neighbor, with a caveat worth knowing: a switch or access point that does **IGMP snooping** forwards the group only to the ports that joined it, so the other hosts never see the traffic at all. Without snooping the switch floods it exactly like broadcast, and on WiFi it goes out at the lowest basic rate to every station. So multicast can reduce how many hosts have to process ~40 packets a second, but it does not guarantee it.

-**Feedback: the device answers.** With `feedback` on, a control that changes anywhere (the web UI, a preset recall, an audio-reactive effect) is mirrored back to the surface, which is what keeps a client honest and what moves a motorized fader. `addressing` picks where it goes: `unicast` to each of `hosts`, addresses or names, or to whoever last wrote when `hosts` is empty; `multicast` to `group`, which every listening board with the same `group` joins; the default, `239.255.77.78`, sits beside discovery's own group, so multicast works with nothing to fill in, and a second rig on the same network picks another. `feedbackPort` is where that client LISTENS, which is not the port we listen on (Open Stage Control calls its own `osc-port`).

A client learns the current state three ways: when it first writes to us from a new address, when its address changes, and whenever it sends **`/mm/hello`**. The last one exists because a client restarting on the SAME address is invisible to the other two, and most controllers send nothing of their own on load, so every widget would show its layout file's defaults until the user moved one.
The shipped session has a `sync from device` button for exactly this.
Every value also goes out again every 30 seconds, one every 20 ms, so a datagram lost on WiFi, or a client that rebooted, is repaired within that time.
-A pad's state goes out as an int on its own address: 0 for an empty pad, 1 for a stored preset, 2 for the one applied.
+A pad's state goes out as an int on `/mm/padstate/N`: 0 for an empty pad, 1 for a stored preset, 2 for the one applied. It has its own address, so a board listening to this one's feedback never reads a state as a press.
A value is never sent back to the host it came from, so two boards feeding each other cannot echo it between them.
-**Following another board.** With `follow` on, what arrives is another board's feedback: this board takes its values, and a desk's pads here show that board's presets. That is what tells a pad's state from a press, since both arrive on `/mm/pad/N`. The Control card's own grid keeps showing this board's presets. With `feedback` on as well, pointed at that board's `port`, a change made here goes there, and a pad pressed on the desk applies that board's preset. A follower asks for every value with `/mm/hello` when it starts, and sends only what changes here, since the board it follows owns the state. A control moved here ignores feedback for half a second, so echoes of its earlier positions cannot pull it back. `hosts` can stay empty: the follower then answers the board it follows once that board's first datagram arrives. A desk at the side of a room drives an installation in the middle this way, with no cable between them. On the desk's board, set `listen` on port 9001, `follow` on, and `feedback` to port 9000.
+**Devices following one device.** A device with `listen` on, on the leader's `feedbackPort`, takes every value the leader sends and its assignments carry each to its own controls.

+The firmware ships **no migration code**, with two temporary exceptions, each because a device that loses its config cannot be reached to fix anything else: it moves 6.0's network settings onto the Ethernet and WiFi cards at the first boot (see the WiFi entry), and it converts config files from before they were state documents (see that entry).
Its persistence layer is robust by default: an absent key keeps the control's default, a stale value clamps to the new bounds, and an unknown key is ignored.
That absorbs almost all schema drift, and the rare change a robust reader *cannot* absorb is **documented here instead of migrated**.
-A patching framework is deferred rather than rejected.
-It becomes the right tool once breaking format changes pile up (a rough bar: more than five across a few releases) and users hold state too valuable to re-derive.

+
+**Action: *nothing*, unless someone joins the access point with a password of its own: they use the home WiFi's password instead.**
+
+The Access Point card's `password` is gone, and a saved one is ignored.
+The access point carries the first known WiFi network's password, so only someone who knows the home WiFi joins it.
+It broadcasts as `MM-` and four MAC digits rather than the device name, shown as `name` on its card.
+It is open only on a first setup or with an open home network.
+A client on the access point never receives a stored password, and the config files are not served to it, so make backups from the home network.
+While a browser is open through the access point, the password fields of browsers at home are empty too, since one live update serves them all.
+MoonBase follows the same rule.
+
+### `never` is `first setup only`, and switching on and off opens the access point
+
+**Action: *nothing*.**
+
+The Access Point card's `never (not recommended)` is named `first setup only`, which is what it did: the access point opens until a network or Ethernet is configured, and stays closed after.
+Switching a device on and off four times, each within a few seconds, opens its access point for that boot without a password, in safe mode, and every setting stays.
+`factory reset` on the System card deletes every setting and preset.
+
+### Every factory palette has a fixed number
+
+**Action: *nothing*.**
+
+The palette picker lists every factory palette at its place in the catalog, held or not, and your own scripted palettes after them. A saved selection is kept by name.
+A knob or a slot that stepped to a scripted palette by number may land on another one.
+One the device does not hold keeps the last palette until the UI downloads it.

+### `stadbeest-legs` is `stadbeest-walk`, `stadbeest-eyes` is `stadbeest-frog-eye`
+
+**Action: pick the new name on a StadBeest effect's `script`, and move a slot target that names the old module.**
+
+The StadBeest's three looks each pair a legs effect with an eye effect, so the first pair is named after what it does.
+
+### Safe mode after two failed boots in a row
+
+**Action: *nothing*.**
+
+Two failed boots in a row, crashes, brownouts or power losses within a minute of starting, start the next boot in [safe mode](../moonmodules/core/system.md#system).
+Every boot raises the lights to their brightness over five seconds.
+The lights stay dark, no MoonLive script runs, and a layout places its first 1,024 lights; from four failed boots the output drivers stay off as well.
+A restart from the UI starts normally.
+
+### Config files are state documents
+
+**Action: *nothing*.**
+
+Each `/.config/.json` holds its module's [state document](integrating.md#setting-everything-at-once), the shape a preset and `PATCH /api/state` carry, with modules keyed by name, in place of the flat keys with numbered children.
+The first boot after the update reads each older file as the document it describes and saves it as one, naming each module as the device names it; the log says which files it converted.
+That conversion is temporary and leaves in the release after next, so a device skipping that release starts from its defaults: back it up first and restore the backup, which converts an older backup's files the same way.
+A MoonBase from this release reads both formats until then.
+An older MoonBase still joins the known WiFi networks and finds the Ethernet wiring, but misses the Ethernet card's static address, so on an Ethernet board with a static address, install the matching MoonBase from the Firmware card.
+
+### A preset is applied through its list row
+
+**Action: a script or integration that applies a preset calls the row's action instead.**
+
+`POST /api/list/Control/presets//apply` applies a preset, `` being its name or its row id ([Writing](integrating.md#writing)).
+It takes the place of the Control module's `preset` control and of the row's `activate` and `apply` fields.
+
+### Adding a module under a name in use is refused
+
+**Action: a client that re-sends an add treats 409 as "already there", or applies a state document instead.**
+
+`POST /api/modules` with an `id` some module already holds answers 409, where it answered 200 with `"note":"already exists"`.
+A state document applied twice changes nothing, so a client that wants an idempotent setup sends one through `PATCH /api/state` ([Setting everything at once](integrating.md#setting-everything-at-once)).
+
+### The MIDI service's `usb` switch is its `source`
+
+**Action: *nothing* when restoring a backup, which maps it; otherwise, on a device with a desk on its USB port, set the MIDI service's `source` to USB.**

+### A desk on its own device is a MIDI bridge over RTP-MIDI

+**Action: *re-set a control*, on a MIDI-OSC bridge device: remove its OSC service and turn its MIDI service's `share` on. On the device the desk drives, set the MIDI service's `source` to network and `host` to the bridge's name or address.**
+
+The bridge now carries the desk over RTP-MIDI, so the device it drives treats the desk as its own, and the OSC `follow` setting is gone.
+A device that listened to another with `follow` on needs nothing: a leader sends its preset pad states on `/mm/padstate/N`, an address apart from the press.

-[migrate.js](https://github.com/MoonModules/MoonLight/blob/main/src/ui/migrate.js) maps each of these, so a Backup taken on an older firmware restores onto this one with the value intact. Restore reports what it could not carry. They are listed rather than described, because the map is the description.

-|---|---|

-| `Noise2DEffect` | `NoiseEffect`, which renders the same field |

-- **`simulate` on AudioService** collapsed from five options to two, so a saved value past the second is clamped rather than mapped.
-- **A driver's `peripheral`** is chip-dependent where the old type did not say which bus it used. Restore flags it for review rather than guessing.
-
-An external tool that POSTs to a control by name follows the same renames; the device answers only to the current name.
-
-### Boards move to the MoonBase partition table (4 MB on 2026-08-26, esp32-16mb on 2026-08-28)
-
-**Action: erase flash** (USB re-flash). Back up first: the File Manager's ⤓, or the installer's bookmarklet on older firmware. Restore after the install brings WiFi, config and scripts back.
-
-The dual-OTA layout gives way to [MoonBase](../explanation/architecture/moonbase.md), which keeps one app slot and a recovery image rather than two app copies. On the 4 MB variants (`esp32`, `esp32-wrover`, `esp32-eth`) the app slot grows 1856 to 2496 KB and the filesystem 256 to 548 KB. On `esp32-16mb` the filesystem grows 7168 to 11264 KB and the app slot keeps its full 4096 KB. Both gain the same recovery story: a power cut mid-install boots MoonBase, and the update is retried over the network.
-
-**Every partition moves, so the new table looks elsewhere for the filesystem volume.** Without a backup, WiFi credentials, module config and scripts all re-enter through provisioning. A partition table only changes over USB. A device still on the old table keeps OTA-updating within it for as long as the app fits, and the web installer is the migration path. 8 MB boards keep their layout.
-
-### System: `expertMode` became `mode`, with three levels
-
-**Action: re-set a control, and only if you had expert mode on.**
-
-The switch that revealed advanced controls is now a three-way select: `user`, `expert` (🎚️) and `developer` (🔧), each level showing what the one below it shows. A saved `expertMode` no longer matches a control and is dropped, so a device comes up in `user` mode whatever it held before. Pick the level you want again on the System card.
-
-The old flag could only say "show more" or "show less", which left diagnostics that mean nothing without the source sitting beside the controls a light show is built from.
-
-### Audio: `floor` is now the silence threshold in both level modes
-
-**Action: re-set `floor` on a device whose microphone you had tuned.**
-Affects any device running the Audio module with a local microphone or line-in.
-
-`levels = automatic` is tuned with `floor` alone: how hard the learner levels, and how far it may lift a band, are constants rather than controls, because both act on a per-band range the conditioner has already normalized per rig, so one value serves every source.
-
-`floor` is what changes meaning, and why re-setting it is worth a minute. It is now the **silence threshold** in both modes: below it a band reads zero and the learner does not learn from it. That is what stops a quiet room being amplified to full scale, but it also means a `floor` tuned under the old behavior can now gate audible sound. Raise it until a silent room reads still, then stop; there is no second knob to compensate with. `gain` remains manual-only and keeps its meaning.
-
-Two behavior changes ride along and need no action. The spectrum now starts at 40 Hz rather than ~11 Hz, dropping a first band that could only ever hold mains hum, DC drift and rumble. And AudioSpectrum's VU bar reads the raw level instead of the smoothed one, because it is the audio test instrument and wants maximum response; every other effect keeps the calm smoothed VU.
-
-### MoonBase serves the OTA routes under the application's names
-
-**Action: nothing on most devices; a serial flash on a MoonBase device updated from a browser.**
-Affects the 4 MB classic, `esp32-16mb` and the S3-Zero, the variants that carry MoonBase.
-
-MoonBase served `/install`, `/install-url`, `/boot-app`, `/last-url` and `/cancel` while the application served `/api/firmware/upload`, `/api/firmware/url` and `/api/firmware/moonbase`: two names for one operation, across images that a single browser page talks to in turn during one update. It now serves them under the application's names.
-
-The break is between the two images on a device, not between a device and its config. A device whose MoonBase predates this change still answers only the old names, so an updated application handing over to it leaves the browser calling routes that image does not have. The way through is the same as any MoonBase update: flash both images over serial once ([building.md](../how-to/building.md#flashing-a-running-device-over-the-network)). A device flashed serially from this version on is consistent and needs nothing.
-
-### AudioVolume is gone
-
-**Action: pick another effect.** Affects any device with an AudioVolume effect on a layer.
-
-It drew one bar from the audio level, which every audio-reactive effect does as a side effect of what it draws. There is no successor to map it onto, so a restored config carrying an `AudioVolumeEffect` node finds no such type and the layer comes up without it. `GEQ` is the nearest thing if a literal meter is what you want.
-
-### A fixture profile's Dimmer channel is held open
-
-A profile that declares a `Dimmer` role has that channel held open (255) every frame, per-light brightness staying in the color values.
-Earlier firmware left the channel at 0, since `Correction` resolved only the color roles.
-A fixture on such a profile, the shipped `IRGB` ("CH1 master intensity") among them, emitted nothing whatever its color channels said.
-
-**A fixture on `IRGB` or another dimmer-carrying profile lights up where it stayed dark.** Nothing to change; the dark channel was a defect.
-
-Routing brightness to the dimmer channel rather than holding it open is the better model and is [backlogged](../work/future/backlog-light.md), so this value will change again.
-
-### WLED apps find a device only when you ask them to
-
-Device discovery now announces on the multicast group `239.255.77.77` and, by default, **not** on the broadcast address WLED apps and devices browse. A MoonLight device therefore stops showing up in them until you turn on `wledCompatible` in the Devices module.
-
-MoonLight devices still find each other either way: presence always goes to the group and every device always joins it, so a fleet can mix the setting freely.
-
-The reason for the default: a broadcast at discovery cadence makes every phone, printer and laptop on the LAN take an interrupt and parse a packet none of them want. Multicast reaches only the devices that joined the group. See [multicast and IGMP snooping](../explanation/architecture/moonlight.md#multicast-and-igmp-snooping) for when that saving is real (a switch that snoops) and when it is not.
-
-### PreviewDriver's `fps` becomes `targetFps`, and now trades resolution (2026-08-25)
-
-The control is renamed and its meaning changed, so the rename is the point rather than cosmetic.
-
-**Before:** `fps` was a ceiling. The driver never exceeded it, but a link short of that rate delivered fewer frames and the control did nothing about it.
-
-**Now:** `targetFps` is the rate you *want*. The driver still never exceeds it, and when the link cannot keep up it **trades preview resolution** to get closer, lower it for full detail at a slower rate, raise it for a smoother but coarser preview. That makes the slider the place where you choose between detail and smoothness, which is what users were reaching for.
-
-**Action: none required.** The preview is a view, not output. A device that had a non-default `fps` saved falls back to the default 24 on first boot with this firmware, because the persisted key changed; set `targetFps` if you had tuned it. Mixed versions degrade soft: an old UI against new firmware sends no detail request and gets full detail (capped by memory); a new UI against old firmware sends an uplink message the device ignores.
-
-### The desktop build keeps its files in `build/fs`
-
-**Action: move your data, or lose your settings.** Affects the DESKTOP build only, and only a
-developer running it from a repository checkout; devices are unaffected.
-
-A desktop install used the build directory itself as the device's filesystem. The File Manager's root therefore listed CMake caches, object archives and every build folder alongside the four directories a device carries. It now roots at `build/fs`, so what the desktop shows is what a board shows.
-
-An existing checkout starts with an empty-looking device, because its `.config` is one level up.
-Move what you want to keep:
-
-```sh
-mkdir -p build/fs
-mv build/.config build/moonlive build/.hls build/fs/ 2>/dev/null
-```
-
-Nothing is deleted if you skip this: the old directories stay where they are, and the device starts fresh. `MM_DATA_DIR` still overrides the location, and a packaged desktop install (which uses the per-user data directory) is unchanged.
-
-### Desktop settings move to a per-user directory (2026-08-23)
-
-The desktop build wrote its configuration to `build/.config`, resolved against whatever directory the process happened to start in. That is a source-checkout layout, and it shipped: a downloaded binary either could not write there at all, failing every save and logging one line per save, or it wrote settings that belonged to that *folder* rather than to the user, so moving the executable lost them.
-
-Settings now live with the user: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\MoonLight` on Windows, `~/Library/Application Support/MoonLight` on macOS, and `$XDG_DATA_HOME/MoonLight` on Linux, falling back to `~/.local/share/MoonLight` when that is unset. `MM_DATA_DIR` overrides it. **A source checkout stays in the tree**, under `build/fs` since the entry above moved it there, so its settings are at `build/fs/.config` and every gate script behaves as before.
-
-**Action: *nothing*, unless your settings persisted before.** The old behavior had two modes, and only one of them leaves anything to move:
-
-- **Saves were failing.** The log showed `write failed for /.config/...` on every change and nothing survived a restart. Nothing to carry across.
-- **Saves were succeeding, per folder.** They are in a `build/.config` folder beside wherever you launched from: the folder you unzipped into on Windows and Linux, and `~/build/.config` on macOS, because the `.app` launcher starts in your home directory. **Action: *move a folder*.** Move the `.config` directory itself into the new per-user directory, so it lands as `/.config` rather than spilling its files into the root. Or leave it and reconfigure from scratch.
-
-ESP32 is unaffected: LittleFS mounts at a fixed partition and never used this path.

An error is in a file that generates a documentation page, a header or a catalog page, so the finding is a defect in what gets published and it fails the gate. A warning is worth fixing without being worth stopping a commit for: any finding in an implementation file, which publishes nothing, and the rules still staged as counts in a header too, the over-wide line and the appendix section nothing refers to. Both are counted here, because a warning nobody sees is a warning nobody fixes.

`Built: yes` was measured this run. `carried (age?)` was not rebuilt either and predates this record, so its age is unknown: it dates itself on the next build. `carried Nd` was NOT rebuilt and its number is N days old, so an absent delta says nothing about the change. **STALE** marks a carry older than 7 days: the number has gone unchecked long enough that growth will surface later as one jump, blamed on whichever commit happens to rebuild that target. `Used` is against the app slot in the firmware's own partition table.

Three test categories, each with a clear purpose:
- **Unit tests** (desktop, `test/unit/{core,light}/unit_*.cpp`), exercise individual MoonModules in isolation with doctest. Each test file declares `// @module ` so it's categorised under that module in the generated inventory. Run via `ctest` or `./build//test/mm_tests` (`` = `macos`/`linux`/`windows`, the per-host build dir). Verify a module's API, edge cases, and output independent of how it's wired into a pipeline.
-- **In-process scenarios** (desktop, `test/scenarios/{core,light}/scenario_*.json`), exercise the system as an integrated pipeline. Each scenario is a declarative JSON file with a sequence of steps (`add_module`, `set_control`, `measure`) and optional performance bounds. The scenario runner (`test/scenario_runner.cpp`) replays the steps in-process and reports tick + heap per `measure` step. Same JSON files run against a live device through the HTTP API, that's the next tier.

- **Live scenarios**: the same scenarios driven against a running device over REST. See [Live scenarios](#live-scenarios) below.
A live run is worth watching once, because it is the tier that proves the device rather than a model of it. This one stacks three layers, blends them, swaps an effect, resizes the grid and takes the stack apart again, and every step happens through the same API the page uses:

**Step ops** the in-process runner understands today:
-- `add_module`: instantiate a module by `type`, register it under `id`. Top-level when no `parent_id`. Mid-scenario adds (after the first `measure` step) run setup() + prepareTree() immediately, mirroring the live `/api/modules` POST shape.
-- `remove_module` / `delete_module`, delete a child module from its parent (release + recursive free + prepareTree). The two names are aliases (the in-process and live runners must never diverge on op names, or a scenario silently no-ops on one tier). Refuses non-editable submodules (`userEditable()==false`) and top-level modules.
-- `replace_module`: swap a child for a fresh module of another `type` at the same slot. A default-named module relabels to the new type; a custom/scenario id is preserved so later steps can still address it. Mirrors `/api/modules//replace`.
-- `clear_children`: delete every deletable child of a container (`id`), leaving the container. The "prepare my own canvas" primitive: a scenario assumes nothing about the device's starting tree, clears a container, then adds what it needs. Non-editable children (Board, Preview, Improv) are skipped.
- `set_control`: write a control on an already-added module (`id` + `key` + `value`). Mirrors `handleSetControl`: applies the typed write, calls `onControlChanged()`, and triggers `Scheduler::prepareTree()` if `affectsPrepare` returns true. Today supports Uint8 / Uint16 / Int16 / Bool / Text / Password / Select. A step may carry `"optional": true`, a best-effort write (e.g. shrink a grid that may not exist) that's skipped, not failed, when the target is absent.
-- `apply_state`: a state document (`document`) through the engine `PATCH /api/state` runs, from its text as written so key order holds. With `error`, and optionally `at`, the step expects that failure; the live runner removes the modules a document created, as it does an `add_module`'s.
+- `apply_state`: a state document (`document`) through the engine `PATCH /api/state` runs, from its text as written so key order holds; it is how a scenario changes the tree. A member with a `type` adds a module and a new `type` under the same name replaces one, `null` removes one, and `"$patch":"replace"` keeps only the children listed, so with none it clears a container (the "prepare my own canvas" primitive), keeping the ones main.cpp wires. With `error`, and optionally `at`, the step expects that failure; with `optional`, an unknown type is a skip, as for a peripheral another chip has. The live runner removes the modules a document created, and restores each container's document at the end.
- `round_trip_state`: read every card back as its document and apply them as one document, which must apply. What the device shows is then proven to apply as it is, and live, the body outgrows the request buffer, so the streaming route runs.
-- `list_row`: reach a row of a list control as the list API does. `add` appends one with those fields, and `to` moves it there. Otherwise `match` finds a row by its fields, then the step writes a `field` (a button field presses it), deletes it (`"delete": true`), or with neither only expects it.

- `measure`: pure measurement step. Runs warmup + measure frames, prints per-step tick / FPS / lights / heap-delta, applies any `bounds` assertions for this step.

+### Move more devices to MoonLight over WiFi (2026-10-09)
+
+The migration image (`moonbase/migrate/`) moves a board running WLED to MoonLight through WLED's own update page, with no cable: verified on WLED 0.15.0 on an ESP32-C3, on a bench board with a power cut at every step and on an Athom bulb.
+An image is built for one chip and carries one variant's partition table, so each further reach is its own piece:
+- **Every MoonBase variant:** `migrate: True` on `esp32`, `esp32-16mb`, `esp32-wrover`, `esp32-pico` and `esp32s3-zero`, each rehearsed on a bench board of that chip and shipped as a release asset. The variants without MoonBase (the larger S3s, the P4) need another design, the image writing the app itself.
+- **Other WLED versions:** 0.13 and 0.14 keep the same files and layout, untested. 0.16 checks an upload's release name, so the user ticks WLED's option to skip it, untested. A WLED build with one app slot cannot move the image aside.
+- **Tasmota:** its layout already has a recovery app in the factory slot and one app slot, so the image arrives running where MoonBase goes with nowhere to move aside; it would write over the recovery app instead. Its WiFi lives in a binary settings block in NVS, which needs its own reader.
+- **ESPHome:** its update accepts the image, but its WiFi is compiled into the firmware, so MoonBase opens its access point.
+- **A generic WiFi source:** ESP-IDF's WiFi driver can keep the last network in NVS under a namespace every framework shares; tried when no WLED files are found, it may carry the network from the others. Bench first, since whether it is there depends on how each firmware starts WiFi.
+
+### The access point never blocks a WiFi retry (2026-10-09)
+
+After losing its network, a device opens its access point and retries its known networks every minute (`retryKnown` in `NetworkModule.h`), but skips the retry while a client is on the access point.
+A phone that stays on it, or rejoins it by itself, then keeps the device off its network indefinitely.
+WiFi has preference, so the retry runs whoever is on the access point: drop the `wifiApClientCount() > 0` check.
+- **The cost:** someone on the access point while a known network exists is interrupted for a few seconds once a minute; a first setup has no known network, so it never retries.
+- **A test:** a client on the access point, the known network back, and the device joins it within the retry interval.
+
+### Some devices do not rejoin their WiFi (2026-10-09)
+
+Now and then a device stays off its network after the router came back, without anyone noticing why.
+Two suspects: a client on its access point blocking the retries (the item above), or the path for losing the network while connected, where the WiFi driver can get stuck and need the radio restarted.
+Next time one hangs, capture before touching it:
+- **The Network card's status:** "No network", "AP: MM-…" or "WiFi STA: …" says which state it is stuck in.
+- **The access point's `clients`**, which says whether a phone is holding it.
+- **The serial log**, through `monitor_esp32.py`, whose `NetworkModule:` lines say what it tried last.
+
+### Refresh a multicast membership on a fixed pace (2026-10-09)
+
+A socket in a multicast group joins again after 3 seconds of silence, which repairs a router that forgets a member, with a gap of about 2 seconds each time.
+The GL.iNet Slate AX forgets after about 18 seconds, so audio on the StadBeest drops every 20.6 seconds, measured on the bulb.
+The standard fix is the router's multicast querier; this item is for a network that cannot be configured, such as a venue's.
+- **The rule:** join again 10 seconds after the last join as well, so a membership is renewed before such a router forgets it.
+- **The cost:** a leave and a join, two IGMP packets of about 60 bytes per socket every 10 seconds, and at most one lost packet in the moment between them.
+- **Where:** `UdpSocket::keepMembership` in `platform.h`, one more condition, and a test beside the silence re-join's.
+
+### Back to WLED over WiFi (2026-10-09)
+
+The migration image moves a WLED device to MoonLight without a cable, but the way back needs one: MoonBase installs MoonLight images only, so a bulb going back to WLED is opened for USB.
+Owners and makers of these devices care most about this: a firmware change that cannot be undone without a cable is a bigger step than one that can.
+It is ours to build rather than WLED's, since the layout it undoes is MoonLight's, about one to two sessions:
+- **A small image that downloads WLED itself** from WLED's GitHub releases while it runs, so MoonLight never redistributes WLED's binary and the image stays far from what it writes.
+- **WLED goes into WLED's second app slot**, past the image's own position, so nothing moves aside; then WLED's table, and the boot pointed at that slot. WLED starts, formats its filesystem and opens its own access point.
+- **MoonBase installs it** only once the image is stamped as one of MoonLight's, a deliberate change to the one rule that refuses other images (`src/core/util/FirmwareImage.h`).
+- **A "Back to WLED" button** in the Firmware card, a release asset per chip, and the bench rehearsal with a power cut at every step that the way in had.
+- The WiFi stays behind: WLED opens its access point, where the user sets it.
+
+### Logical operators in MoonLive conditions (2026-10-08)
+
+Glow wrote `kick && !kicking` as `kick > kicking`, and the StadBeest effects hit the same gap ([the language roadmap, section 11](moonlive-language-roadmap.md)).
+An `if` or `for` condition is one comparison compiled straight into a branch, so `&&`, `||` and `!` are the textbook short-circuit translation into branches, on the branch instructions every backend already has:
+- `a && b` sends each failing test past the body, with no extra label;
+- `a || b` sends each passing test but the last into the body, one label per group;
+- `!a` swaps the two targets.
+
+The work, in `MoonLiveCompiler.cpp`:
+- one condition parser for `if` and `for`: `||` over `&&` over `!` over a comparison, with parentheses, the lexer's saved position deciding whether a `(` opens a condition or arithmetic;
+- the positive form of each comparison, which `||` needs, `!=` taking two branches as it does today.
+
+Tests on the desktop: the truth tables, that the right side does not run when the left decides, precedence, parentheses, and running out of labels. Then the operator section of `moonlive.md`, the roadmap row removed, and a check on the S3 and the C3, where Glow takes `kick && !kicking`.
+
+Not in this step: a comparison as a value (`bool b = x > y && z;`), which needs a set-on-condition instruction in every backend.

+
+A config file in the flat format builds before 2026-10-08 saved is read as the state document it describes at the first boot and saved as one, so an in-place update keeps its config.

+- `flatToStateDocument`, `isFlatConfig` and their helpers in `StateDocument.cpp` (`writeFlatNode`, `writeFlatValues`, `takeLive`, `flatName`, `distinctName`, `flatRoot`);
+- the conversion in `FilesystemModule::loadSubtree`;
+- the flat fallback in MoonBase's `ConfigScrape.h` (`flatChildKey`, `flatChildValue`);
+- `configToDocument` and `isFlatConfig` in `src/ui/migrate.js`, after which an older backup no longer restores;
+- the test "A config file in the flat format older builds wrote loads at boot and is saved back as a document", and the MIGRATING entry's lines on the conversion.
+

+## A MoonLive script has 48 branch labels in all (2026-10-08)
+
+**Found** on the StadBeest eyes: one more `if` in a helper turned a working script into `codegen failed: assembler overflow`.
+The assembler's label table holds 48 for the whole script, and each function takes three (entry, depth guard, exit) before its own `if`s, loops and divisions by a non-power-of-two, so eight functions leave 24.
+The compiler's own cap, `kIrLabels` at 40, follows close behind and reports "too many branches".
+
+**The fix to build:** the label and fixup tables of all three assemblers move from members to the heap, as the code buffer already did, then `kAsmLabels`, `kAsmFixups` and `kIrLabels` rise (to 128, 255 and 96); `Label` stays a byte.
+The spill pass and the lowering hold `kIrLabels`-sized arrays on the stack too, so they move with it.
+Verified by compiling the shipped scripts on a classic ESP32, an S3 and a P4, whose compile stacks are the ones at risk, and pinned by a host test with a script past 48 labels on each backend.

+## Some devices stop answering mDNS over WiFi (2026-10-08)

-own `petals`/`radius` should have been. The server data was correct throughout; only the display was
-wrong, which is what makes it hard to recognise.
-
-`Scheduler::ensureUniqueName` exists and is called on `/api/modules` creation and after a persistence
-load, so the tree normally cannot reach this state. The bench pair predates that pass or arrived

-is a UI showing another module's controls.
-
-Fix: assert uniqueness after the persistence load and report a collision in the module status, so a

-the UI would also give a user a way out; there is no `name` control today.

-
-Noticed while repairing that device, and avoided only by reading the handler before running the

+
+Four homes for MoonLight compared: GitHub, where it lives, [Codeberg](https://codeberg.org), a self-hosted [Forgejo](https://forgejo.org), and [GitLab.com](https://gitlab.com).
+Their content rules come first, since they decide whether MoonLight may be hosted at all; then each GitHub feature MoonLight depends on, with its counterpart on the other three.
+
+## The overview
+
+| | GitHub | Codeberg | Self-hosted Forgejo | GitLab.com |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| Allows an agent-written project | yes | no, Terms §2(1)7 | yes, our own rules | yes, no rule on it |
+| Run by | Microsoft | a German non-profit | us | GitLab Inc. |
+| Hosted CI runners | Linux x86 and arm64, macOS, Windows | Linux x86 on request (Woodpecker) | none: self-hosted only | Linux x86; macOS and Windows in beta |
+| Release API as MoonLight reads it | yes | Gitea shape | Gitea shape | its own shape |

+| CodeRabbit review | yes | no | no | yes |
+| Cost for MoonLight | free for public repos | free, donation-funded | a server and its upkeep | free; the open-source program adds Ultimate |
+
+## Content rules
+
+**GitHub** has no rule on how code is written.
+
+**Codeberg**'s [Terms of Use](https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/org/src/branch/main/TermsOfUse.md), §2(1)7, adopted by vote on 2026-07-22:
+
+> You must not share projects that mostly consist of code written by "generative AI"-tools (including services such as Claude, OpenAI Codex).
+
+The [blog post](https://blog.codeberg.org/protecting-our-floss-commons-from-llms.html) explaining the vote names as unwelcome *"projects written and maintained with heavy use of LLMs"* and *"projects created by LLM 'agents' in autonomous ways"*, and as welcome *"projects who have an active community"* and *"projects with a significant pre-LLM history"*.
+Enforcement is by human moderators, with no automatic scanning.
+MoonLight is written by agents and says so, in the roles of [CLAUDE.md](../../../CLAUDE.md#roles) and in [why we write our own code](../../explanation/why-we-write-our-own.md#why-this-became-possible), which places it under §2(1)7.
+The two exceptions are uncertain ground: the community is small, and the pre-LLM history belongs to WLED-MM rather than to this repository.
+The same terms bar cryptocurrency projects, which does not concern MoonLight.
+
+**A self-hosted Forgejo** runs the software Codeberg runs, under rules we set.
+
+**GitLab.com** has no rule on how code is written.
+Its [open-source program](https://about.gitlab.com/solutions/open-source/join/) gives Ultimate features and 50,000 compute minutes to a project that is public, under an OSI-approved license, and run without selling services or add-ons.
+
+## What MoonLight depends on
+
+Each GitHub feature MoonLight uses, and what replaces it elsewhere.
+Plain git moves unchanged: the repo-health and KPI scripts, MoonCloud on Cloudflare, and the Discord links.
+
+| GitHub | MoonLight uses it for | Codeberg and Forgejo | GitLab.com |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Actions, 4 workflows | build, test, release, docs deploy | Forgejo Actions reads GitHub-style workflow files; most `actions/*` steps run | `.gitlab-ci.yml`, a rewrite of the four workflows |
+| Hosted runners: Linux x86 and arm64, macOS, Windows | the desktop builds: `.deb` on both architectures, `.dmg`, `setup.exe` | Codeberg's Woodpecker is `linux/amd64` only and *"provided as-is"*; the others need self-hosted runners | macOS and Windows in beta, outside the service-level agreement; arm64 needs a self-hosted runner |
+| Releases and `api.github.com` | the installer, the UI's update badge and OTA picker, MoonBase's recovery page and the Dockerfile read releases, the release `name` and the `prerelease` flag | the Gitea-shaped releases API: similar fields, different URLs | the Releases API, with assets as links to files in a package registry |
+| `raw.githubusercontent.com` | MoonLive script downloads, the Gallery | `/raw/` URLs, CORS to verify | `/-/raw/` URLs, CORS to verify |
+| Pages, custom domain | moonmodules.org/MoonLight and the installer at `/install/` | Codeberg Pages from a `pages` branch or an Actions build; with self-hosting, any static host | GitLab Pages |
+| ghcr.io | the Docker image | the package registry | the container registry |
+| CodeQL and the Security tab | static analysis, read by `check_codeql.py` | CodeQL CLI or Semgrep in CI, the report kept in the repository | SAST in CI, with Ultimate |
+| CodeRabbit | review of every pushed commit | the Reviewer agent instead | CodeRabbit |
+| The web editor's fork flow | the "contribute a script" button | Forgejo's web editor, a different URL shape | GitLab's Web IDE, a different URL shape |
+| Personal access tokens and an API | scripts and agents | tokens under Settings → Applications | personal and project access tokens |
+
+On every platform, three readers of the release API need an adapter for its shape: the UI, MoonBase and the installer.
+The ESP32 OTA path's redirect and TLS handling also needs checking against the new host.
+The URLs in the docs, the README, `mkdocs.yml` and the packaging metadata are a search and replace, and the privacy policy names GitHub as a data recipient.
+
+## The deciding costs
+
+Any move pays the same three costs:
+- **Runners:** macOS, Windows and arm64 for the desktop builds, hosted on GitHub alone.
+- **The release API:** read by the firmware, MoonBase and the installer, with its shape followed exactly on GitHub alone.
+- **Review:** CodeRabbit, which reaches GitHub and GitLab.

- The APC40 mkII on a board waits for a powered hub: it takes its power from USB, and the dev board's port supplies none. The hub needs `CONFIG_USB_HOST_HUBS_SUPPORTED` in the S3 images.
-- **The legs LEDs stop briefly on each QCon move.** About half a second, at once, and only when the change arrives from the bridge: moving the same control on the legs board's own page shows nothing. Not yet found; the next step is timing the legs board's OSC receive path and the Control slot path it drives.
-- **A QCon fader sometimes slides back after release.** Sending the release position at once (no tick wait, USB tasks woken on send) made it rarer but did not end it. Next: log what the desk sends around the touch release, and whether a feedback value from the legs board arrives after the hold-off has expired.
+- ✅ **The legs LEDs stopped briefly on each QCon move** under OSC `follow`, about half a second and only when the change came from the bridge. Gone with RTP-MIDI (step 5), verified on the StadBeest on 2026-10-08.
+- ✅ **A QCon fader slid back after release** under OSC `follow`: the bridge kept its own copy of the state, and a value from the legs board arriving after the hold-off moved the motor back. Gone with RTP-MIDI (step 5), where the legs board owns the only copy; verified on the StadBeest on 2026-10-08.
- HID gamepads next, with controller translations seeded from GameControllerDB. Xbox pads over USB need a GIP driver on top, and only if wanted, since the browser already reaches them over USB or Bluetooth on the computer.
- The S31 joins if its datasheet confirms a USB host.
-### 5. RTP-MIDI for the X-Touch 🚧
-
-The X-Touch over Ethernet with no computer: RFC 6295's session handshake and journal, then the same MCU profile as step 2.
+### 5. RTP-MIDI: a desk on the network 🚧
+
+A desk always attaches to the device it drives, and only the cable changes: browser, the device's own USB port, or the network.
+The network cable is RTP-MIDI (RFC 6295, Apple's Network MIDI), which the X-Touch's Ethernet port speaks, macOS has built in and Windows gets with the free rtpMIDI driver.
+It replaces OSC `follow`: the bridge device turns into a plain MIDI cable with no state of its own, so nothing has to keep a copy of the leader's state honest.
+
+- ✅ **`RtpMidi.h`**, the codec, beside `UsbMidi.h` and `OscPacket.h`: the AppleMIDI session packets (`IN`, `OK`, `NO`, `BY`, `CK`) and the RTP-MIDI data packet, its MIDI list read with delta times and running status, a journal skipped, and sent with no journal.
+- ✅ **`RtpMidiSession`**, one session over two UDP sockets, the control port and the next one up for data (5004 and 5005): it accepts an invitation, or invites a host with retries, and keeps the clock sync running, so a peer that goes silent ends the session and an inviter invites again.
+- ✅ **`MidiService` source `network`**, beside browser and USB: `host` is the bridge or the X-Touch, with an optional `:port`, and the service invites it; with `host` empty it waits to be invited, as a Mac's Audio MIDI Setup does. The greeting, the desk state and the changed-slot sending are the USB path's, shared through one desk link for both ports.
+- ✅ **`share`** on the MIDI service, with `source` USB: the desk on the bridge device's USB port is reachable as an RTP-MIDI session, a message at a time both ways, driving no surface there. A device waiting to be invited announces itself over Bonjour (`_apple-midi._udp`), so `host` takes a name. A desk's own SysEx is not passed on, as the USB path already does; the host's greeting SysEx is.
+- ✅ **Removed:** OSC `follow`, the follower's greeting, its half-second hold-off, ControlModule's remote pad grid and `Seed::None`, and `ControlSurface::sendPress`. A pad's state goes out over OSC on `/mm/padstate/N`, apart from the press on `/mm/pad/N`, so no device reads a state as a press, and the Open Stage Control session lights its pads from it. `/mm/hello` stays, since Open Stage Control asks with it.
+- ✅ **Device models:** the MIDI-OSC bridge becomes the MIDI bridge (its MIDI service sharing the desk); a follower is OSC `listen` on the leader's `feedbackPort`.
+- ✅ **Tests:** the codec against RFC 6295's examples and Apple's packet layout; a session handshake and a message both ways over the loopback; the MIDI service on a network desk end to end through a bridge with the desktop test desk.
+- ✅ **Docs:** the services page (MIDI `network` and `share`, OSC without `follow`), the multi-board guide's bridge and diagram, the control surfaces reference, MIGRATING.
+- ✅ Verified on the StadBeest on 2026-10-08: the QCon on the bridge device, the legs' MIDI service on `network` inviting it, and the fader slide-back and LED stall of step 4 gone.
+- ✅ A refusal says why: the refusing side puts `no desk`, `in use` or `it invites` in its `NO` packet's name field, and the inviter's status shows it.
+- 🚧 Verify the X-Touch over Ethernet, and whether it invites or waits to be invited.
+- 🚧 Verify a Mac's Audio MIDI Setup joining a device's session.
+- Left for later: picking the host from a list of announced sessions rather than typing its name; the recovery journal, since a lost fader message is repaired by the next one and a lost button press is pressed again.

Bringing a module to life at runtime gets one home in core, which `POST /api/modules`, the document engine and the config loader share; today each runs its own create, name, role check, lifecycle and notify sequence, and they differ (HTTP renames a name in use where a document refuses it). The HTTP apply-core (add, replace, delete, clear children) becomes a one-member document each, and Improv's `APPLY_OP` can carry a small document, since one module with its type is about 50 bytes. The values a script declares at compile then have one mechanism rather than two: the document's deferred controls and the config loader's values reapply. Config files change shape on disk and no compatibility code reads the old one, so it ships with a back up, update, restore note, ideally in the release that already asks for a restore. The flat format's `$name` key goes with it, since a document is keyed by name.
+8. 🚧 **(B, on `next-iteration`)** Config files, `deviceModels.json` and scenario fixtures as documents, each removing its old reader, in four commits. Today five sequences bring a module to life at runtime (the document applier, HTTP's `applyAddModule`, the config loader's `applyNode`, the scenario runner's `add_module`, and the list walkers over HTTP), and they differ in naming, role checks, lifecycle and notify.
+ - ✅ **8a. One create path in core.** The document applier is the only place a module is created, replaced or removed: `POST /api/modules`, `/replace`, `DELETE` and clear children each apply a one-member document through `applyStateAt`, and `applyDeleteModule` and `applyReplaceModule` join `applyAddModule` as transport-free operations the tests drive. A replace is the parent's children listed in order under `"$patch":"replace"`, the replacement in the old one's place. Naming: `POST /api/modules` refuses an `id` some module holds with a 409; without an `id`, and for a replacement's new name, the type's default takes a free `-N` suffix (`Scheduler::freeName`); an APPLY_OP `add` merges, as a document does, so a catalog entry applied twice changes nothing. `replacementName` stays, since a document is keyed by name and the caller chooses it. `AlreadyExists` and the handlers' own create, replace and delete sequences went. Until 8c and 8d, `moondeck.py` and the live scenario runner read a 409 as already there. The Improv `state` op moves to 8c, where the installer first sends one.
+ - ✅ **8b. Config files as documents** (verified on the desktop, the S3 testbench and the Olimex). `/.config/Effects.json` holds `{"Effects":{…}}`, written by `writeStateMember` with secrets. The engine takes a `StateSource`: `Stored` applies a file leniently (no up-front check, an unplaceable member skipped and logged, values clamped twice around a `rebuildControls`, an unknown key dropped, a script's key deferred, a code-wired child kept, a name clash taking a free name), and `Boot` does the same before setup with no lifecycle, reactions or dirty marks. Boot's phase 5 sets the deferred controls, so `reapplyValues`, `requestValuesReapply`, the dedupe pass (`ensureUniqueName`, `deduplicateNamesInTree`), `applyNode`, `writeNode`, `saveSubtreeTo`, `applySubtree`, `restoreName` and `$name` went. `migrate.js` converts a flat config on restore with `configToDocument`, naming modules from the live tree so a code-wired child such as `Stats` keeps its name, and `diffRestore` reads documents. MoonBase's `ConfigScrape.h` reads a child's key among its own members. The 6.0 network adoption runs only on a flat file. **Temporary, until the release after next**: the boot load converts a flat file itself (`flatToStateDocument`, naming children from `$name` or the live tree) and saves it as a document, so an update needs no backup, and MoonBase's scraper reads both formats. Desktop: the user's real flat config booted on this build into the same 246-entry tree, every file converted and saved as a document. Boards on 2026-10-08: the S3 testbench (.158) and the Olimex (.207, classic without PSRAM) each converted every file at first boot into the same tree, the largest free block 52 KB and 76 KB; the Olimex's new MoonBase came up on its network from the flat files and again from the documents. A stored file sets only persistable controls, found on the Olimex, whose old file held the pad editor's live inputs.
+ - ✅ **8c. `deviceModels.json` as documents** (desktop tests; a board provisioning run waits). Each entry's `modules` list is a `state` document, a container that gains children carrying `"$patch":"replace"`. APPLY_OP carries a state document, one per top-level container (the largest is 236 bytes), applied by the engine, so `applyOp`, `applyClearChildren` and the add/set/clearChildren ops went with `config-ops.js` and `plan_config_ops`. `moondeck.py` pushes one `PATCH /api/state`; `check_devices` validates the document. `"$patch":"replace"` keeps a module main.cpp wires, for every source: the clear-children pass the installer ran deleted WiFi, the access point, MQTT and Devices on the 18 entries listing a Network child. A document sets a list control whole, so a catalog entry can now seed list rows.
+ - ✅ **8d. Scenario fixtures as documents** (desktop). A scenario names its top-level containers in `top` and changes the tree only through `apply_state` documents: a member with a `type` adds, a new `type` replaces, `null` removes, `"$patch":"replace"` clears; with `optional` an unknown type is a skip. One table in `module_types.cpp` (`createTopLevel`) builds each container as the device boots it, with the apparatus main.cpp wires into it, and main.cpp and both runners use it. Effects finds the top-level `Layouts` and Drivers the top-level `Effects` by type when they prepare (`Scheduler::topOfType`), so nothing is wired by hand; the setters stay as injection for the unit-test rigs. The live runner snapshots each container's document before a run and applies it back after, which restores modules, types, order and values in one request each. Removed: the `add_module`, `remove_module`, `delete_module`, `clear_children` and `replace_module` ops in both runners with `id`/`parent_id`/`props` steps, `wireModule`, the runner's id map and `purgeSubtree`, and the live runner's tree snapshot, re-create walk and type swap-back. Scheduler setup's phase 1 binds controls from scratch. Some in-process scenarios now carry a container's real apparatus (Preview and FixtureProfiles under Drivers, Audio under Services), so their recorded numbers move once.
+ - 🚧 Restore an old backup through the File Manager on this build: a bundle made on a device still on the flat format, restored onto a device on documents, every module, name and value back, and the restore report clean. The conversion is verified in Node on the desktop's real config and the boot conversion on the desktop, the S3 and the Olimex; the clicked-through Restore is not.
+ - Verification:
+ - ✅ Desktop first: the unit tests, the scenarios, and the user's real config booted from documents.
+ - ✅ A board booting from document configs: the Olimex (classic, no PSRAM) at a 76 to 88 KB largest free block, up from 62 KB, and the S3 at 52 KB.
+ - ✅ Provisioning a board over Improv with MoonDeck's `improv_provision.py`, which sends the same per-container documents: 5 of 5 on the Olimex, 6 of 6 on the S3 over its native USB.
+ - 🚧 The web installer itself (browser, Web Serial) provisioning a board on this build: its JS is unit-tested, not yet run against a board.
## Subtraction
- ✅ The `captures` field, and the capture-role select: the pad editor names a container, any card saves itself.
- ✅ The `{ }` button's diagnostic dump as its first view, kept as a link.
- ✅ A list persisting by default: only a list that restores its rows is written, so the task and pin snapshots no longer reach flash.

+# Plan: ESP32-C3 and the Athom bulb
+
+MoonLight runs on the ESP32-C3, starting with a C3 board on the bench and then an IoTorero-branded Athom 12W RGBCW bulb that runs WLED today.
+The bulb has no USB in reach, so it moves from WLED to MoonLight over WiFi: one WLED firmware update installs a small image that rewrites the partition table and puts MoonBase in place, and MoonBase installs MoonLight.
+
+## What the bulb is today
+
+Read from `http://192.168.1.230` (`/json/info`, `/cfg.json`, `/json/state`, `/presets.json`) on 2026-10-08.
+WLED never returns passwords, so only their lengths are known.
+

+| WiFi | SSID `MoonModules` (password 9 characters), DHCP, channel 11, RSSI -52 dBm, TX power 19.5 dB, sleep off |
+| Access point | `IoTorero_DB9600` (password 8 characters), channel 1, 4.3.2.1, opens when no connection |
+| Light | one light, 5-channel PWM (WLED type 45, RGB plus warm and cold white) |
+| PWM pins | red GPIO6, green GPIO7, blue GPIO5, warm white GPIO4, cold white GPIO3 |
+| PWM frequency | 9765 Hz |
+| Power limit | 850 mA on, LED current per light 0 (WLED's PWM default) |
+| Color handling | gamma 2.8 on color, white from RGB mode 255 (per-bus setting 0), CCT blending 0 |
+| Defaults at boot | on, brightness 255, no preset |
+| Transition | 700 ms |
+| Current color | primary [41, 76, 255, 86] (RGBW), effect 0 (solid) |
+| Buttons | button 1 on GPIO0 with type 0 (disabled); no IR, no relay, no I2C, no SPI |
+| Realtime | E1.31 on, universe 1, DMX address 1, mode 4 (multi RGB), timeout 2.5 s |
+| Sync | WLED UDP on 21324, receive on (brightness, color, effect, palette), send off |
+| Off | MQTT, Hue, Alexa, NTP, ESP-NOW |
+| OTA | not locked, ArduinoOTA on, so `/update` takes an image |
+| Presets | none |
+| Filesystem | 12 KB used of 983 KB |
+
+Flash layout, from `getfreeflash` (the other app slot, 1.5 MB) and the filesystem size (960 KB), which together match WLED's `WLED_ESP32_4MB_1MB_FS.csv`:
+
+| Partition | Offset | Size |
+|---|---|---|
+| bootloader (ESP-IDF v4.4.4) | 0x0 | |
+| partition table | 0x8000 | |
+| nvs | 0x9000 | 20 KB |
+| otadata | 0xE000 | 8 KB |
+| app0 | 0x10000 | 1.5 MB |
+| app1 | 0x190000 | 1.5 MB |
+| spiffs (LittleFS) | 0x310000 | 960 KB |
+
+MoonLight is 2.2 MB on the classic ESP32 and does not fit a 1.5 MB slot; MoonBase is 0.8 MB and does.
+
+## Why the partitions can change without USB
+
+An OTA update writes an app, never the partition table, but the app it writes can.
+WLED 0.15.0's `/update` takes any valid C3 image up to the slot size (to confirm on the bench, step 4).
+ESP-IDF documents that a bootloader boots apps built with a newer ESP-IDF, so the bulb keeps its v4.4.4 bootloader and runs an ESP-IDF 6.1 app ([bootloader compatibility](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32c3/api-guides/bootloader.html#bootloader-compatibility)).
+
+The image WLED installs is a **migration image**: an ESP-IDF app carrying MoonBase for the C3 and MoonLight's 4 MB partition table, about 0.9 MB in all.
+It runs once:
+
+1. **Out of the way.** It needs WLED's app0 free, since MoonBase goes to 0x10000. Running from app0, it copies itself to app1, points otadata at app1 and restarts.
+2. **MoonBase.** Writes MoonBase to 0x10000 and checks its SHA-256 against the embedded copy.
+3. **The table.** Writes MoonLight's partition table to 0x8000 and reads it back.
+4. **The choice of app.** Erases otadata, so the bootloader starts the factory app, which is MoonBase.
+5. **Restart.** MoonBase starts on the network WLED was on, carried over from WLED's `wsec.json`, and installs MoonLight by URL. Without a readable `wsec.json` it opens its access point, and joining it from a phone provisions the network.
+
+What a power cut does at each step:
+- before step 3, the old table and otadata still start the migration image, which starts over;
+- after step 3, the new table's otadata names no valid app (or none at all), so the bootloader starts the factory app, MoonBase;
+- **during step 3**, a 4 KB sector erase and write of about 50 ms, the table is gone and the bulb needs serial. This is the one window that bricks, and step 4 rehearses every cut on the bench board.
+
+Writing the table needs `CONFIG_SPI_FLASH_DANGEROUS_WRITE_ALLOWED`, set in the migration image only.
+The C3 bootloader sits at 0x0 (0x1000 on the classic ESP32); the partition table is at 0x8000 on both.
+
+Prior art: Tasmota's Partition Wizard moves a running device to a new layout over OTA in the same way. Going through it would mean installing Tasmota first, then running its wizard, then a further OTA step. The migration image does the job in one OTA step.
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. The ESP32-C3 firmware ✅
+
+**Done.** Built, shipped in the release (`ships: True`), flashed on the bench C3 and the bulb. MoonLive runs on the C3 with native code from SRAM. Fixes on the way: a task asking for a core the chip lacks runs unpinned, the FPU capability is guarded, the C3 takes the W5500 component, MoonBase compiles its Ethernet handler only where there is a MAC. An RMT strip on the C3 is untested.
+
+- An `esp32c3` variant in `build_esp32.py`, 4 MB with MoonBase, and `moonbase-esp32c3`.
+- The 4 MB MoonBase table is chip-neutral, so `esp32dev_moonbase.csv` becomes `4mb_moonbase.csv`, shared by the classic ESP32 and the C3. That rename is this plan's subtraction: one table, not a copy per chip.
+- The platform layer on the C3:
+ - one core;
+ - no PSRAM;
+ - two RMT TX channels;
+ - no I2S parallel or LCD bus;
+ - the console and Improv on USB Serial/JTAG (GPIO18 and GPIO19);
+ - 400 KB SRAM.
+- MoonLive on the C3: the RISC-V backend emits RV32IMC only (the P4 has more), and code runs from SRAM, which needs ESP-IDF's memory protection off (`CONFIG_ESP_SYSTEM_MEMPROT_FEATURE`). A C3 build without the JIT is the fallback when this resists.
+- The release workflow and `check_firmwares` learn the variant; the installer learns the `ESP32-C3` chip name.
+
+### 2. Device models ✅
+
+**Done**, as `ESP32-C3 SuperMini` (its pin map as the image), `ESP32-C3 RGBWW PWM bulb` (the Athom 12W as its example), `QuinLED An-DecaPenta` and `QuinLED An-Penta-Plus` (WiFi supported, PWM outputs planned until their pins are known).
+
+- `ESP32-C3 SuperMini`: chip `ESP32-C3`, firmware `esp32c3`, `RmtLedDriver` on the board's LED pin.
+- `ESP32-C3 RGBWW PWM bulb`: chip `ESP32-C3`, firmware `esp32c3`, one light, the PWM driver on the five pins above at 9765 Hz under the `RGBCCT` fixture, the curve left at its default.
+
+### 3. A PWM light driver ✅
+
+**Done.** `PwmLightDriver` with its platform seam, six desktop tests and its card on the drivers page; runs the bulb's five channels, seen working. The white order follows WLED's config on the bulb: cold on GPIO3, warm on GPIO4.
+
+The bulb drives its five channels with PWM through the C3's LEDC peripheral, and MoonLight has no PWM driver yet.
+Every ESP32 has LEDC, so the driver serves any PWM light: a bulb, an analog RGB, RGBW or RGBCCT strip, a constant-current controller such as the QuinLED An-Penta boards.
+
+**The spec: PWM Light, a driver card under LED drivers.**
+
+- **One pin per output channel.**
+ `pins` lists GPIOs in channel order, and the shared `fixture` profile names what each channel carries, so the driver adds no channel vocabulary of its own.
+ The light count is the pin count divided by the profile's channel count: the bulb's 5 pins under `RGBCCT` are 1 light, the An-DecaPenta's 15 are 3.
+ Pins past the last whole light idle, and the status says how many.
+- **The shared correction applies as on every driver:** `localBrightness`, `curve`, `whiteMode`, `start` and `count`.
+- **`frequency`, in Hz**, default 19531, the rate QuinLED recommends.
+ The resolution follows from it rather than being a second control: the LEDC clock divided by the frequency bounds the duty steps, so the driver takes the most bits that fit, up to the chip's timer width.
+ At 19531 Hz that is 12 bits, and at the bulb's 9765 Hz 13.
+- **Duty:** the curve in 16 bits, scaled to the resolution, so the bottom of a fade keeps its steps.
+- **Phase:** each channel starts its pulse at an evenly spaced point of the period, so a light at full white does not switch every channel at the same instant, which spreads the current draw.
+- **Limits, from the SDK's capabilities:** one LEDC timer per driver, so one frequency per driver and up to four PWM drivers; the chip's channel count across its speed modes (16 on the classic ESP32, 6 on the C3). More pins than channels is an error naming the limit.
+- **The hot path** writes a channel's duty only when it changed, a register write that does not block.
+- **The platform seam:** `pwmStart(frequency)` returning the resolution, `pwmAttach(channel, pin, phase)`, `pwmWrite(channel, duty)` and `pwmStop()`, with a desktop stub that records the duties, so the mapping is tested on the desktop.
+- **Pins** are claimed through the pins registry, as the LED drivers claim theirs.
+- **Tests:** lights times channels to duties through the stub, the resolution from the frequency, a partial last light, more pins than channels, the phase spacing.
+- **Catalog:**
+ - The Athom bulb: `pins` "6,7,5,3,4" (red, green, blue, cold, warm, the order `RGBCCT` names), `fixture` `RGBCCT`, `frequency` 9765.
+ - The An-Penta boards get their pins once QuinLED's pinout guide gives them.
+
+### 4. The bench C3, then the rehearsal ✅
+
+**Done.** The whole path over WiFi alone on the bench, a power cut at each of the five pauses and the move-aside path all came back without a cable; the network is written before the table, so a cut after the table still finds it. The image checks the board before writing anything and restarts WLED when it cannot finish, re-verified on the normal and move-aside paths; the refusals themselves are untested on hardware. The image is `moonbase/migrate/`, shipped as `shared-migrate-esp32c3.bin`, with the how-to `docs/how-to/migrating-over-the-air.md`.
+
+On `/dev/cu.usbmodem202134311`, after a repower (it was wedged on the last probe, MAC 08:92:72:85:B3:60):
+1. Identify the chip and flash size.
+2. Flash MoonLight `esp32c3` over USB; verify WiFi, the UI, MoonLive, and an RMT strip.
+3. Flash it back to the bulb's exact state: WLED 0.15.0's ESP32-C3 release, its v4.4.4 bootloader and the `WLED_ESP32_4MB_1MB_FS` table.
+4. Run the bulb's path over WiFi only: WLED `/update` with the migration image, then MoonBase on the carried-over WiFi, then MoonLight by URL.
+5. Cut the power at each step with a build that pauses between steps; every cut outside step 3's window has to come back.
+
+### 5. The bulb ✅, Glow 🚧
+
+**Done** on 2026-10-08: WLED took the image, MoonBase came up on the WiFi in 6 seconds, MoonLight installed and runs the bulb's catalog entry. **In progress:** Glow, iterated on the bulb to follow the bass, waits for your verdict before it moves into `moonlive/effects/`.
+
+- Before anything is written: every file WLED's `/edit?list=/` lists, downloaded for reference into the appendix below. WLED hides `wsec.json` from the listing and from HTTP, so only the migration image reads it.
+- With step 4 green and your go-ahead: the same `/update` on 192.168.1.230.
+- MoonBase on the carried-over WiFi, MoonLight by URL, then the device model `Athom 12W RGBCCT bulb`.
+- An audio-reactive effect for the bulb: `glow.mle`, the whole rig as one light pumping with the bass, iterated on the bulb and copied into `moonlive/effects/` once settled.
+
+### 6. Apply a device model from the device's own UI ⏳
+
+**Next**, a commit of its own.
+
+A catalog entry in `deviceModels.json` reaches a device two ways: the web installer sends it over USB at install time, and MoonDeck sends it over the network when a model is picked.
+A device that came to MoonLight over WiFi has neither, so the Athom bulb's PWM pins, fixture and grid were set through MoonDeck; the same holds for any device a user sets up later.
+- **The catalog:** the device's UI fetches the `deviceModels.json` the web installer publishes on moonmodules.org, as it fetches the release list for a firmware update.
+- **The picker:** on the System card's `deviceModel`, showing the boards of the device's own chip.
+- **Applying:** each container's `state` through `PATCH /api/state`, Drivers last, as MoonDeck does.
+- **A confirmation** that names what the entry replaces, since its containers carry `"$patch":"replace"`.
+- **Offline:** without internet the catalog does not load, and the picker says so.
+- **Tests:** a JS test for the chip filter and the document order, beside the ones pinning MoonDeck's and the installer's.
+
+## If the bulb has to be opened
+
+The bulb runs on mains through a non-isolated supply: unscrew it from the socket and leave it unpowered for a minute before opening it, and never connect anything to it while it is in a socket.
+
+- **Opening.** The diffuser dome is pressed and glued into the body. Warm the seam with a hair dryer for a minute, then twist and pull with a rubber grip, or work a guitar pick or plastic spudger around the seam.
+- **Inside.** A round aluminum LED board, with the C3 module on it or on a small upright board in the neck. Expect no USB connector.
+- **Pads to look for:**
+ - 3V3, GND, TX (GPIO21), RX (GPIO20);
+ - IO9, the boot strap: held low at power-up, it starts the ROM's download mode;
+ - sometimes EN;
+ - sometimes GPIO18 and GPIO19, the C3's native USB D- and D+.
+- **Flashing through them.** Either a 3.3 V USB-serial adapter on TX, RX, GND and 3V3 with IO9 to GND at power-up, or a USB cable soldered to GPIO18 (D-), GPIO19 (D+) and GND with 3.3 V from a regulator. Never put 5 V on 3V3.
+- **Before you go further.** A photo of both sides of the board settles which pads exist.
+
+## Decisions
+
+- **The PWM driver is part of this plan**, since without it the bulb runs MoonLight dark.
+- **The migration image is its own ESP-IDF project in `moonbase/migrate/`**: ESP-IDF builds one app per project, and the image exists only to install MoonBase. `build_esp32.py` builds it after MoonBase, whose binary it embeds.
+- **WiFi crosses the move**: the migration image reads the network from WLED's `wsec.json` on the old filesystem and hands it to MoonBase, so the bulb comes back on the network by itself. No credential enters the repo or a build, any WLED device moves the same way, and the bench rehearsal runs end to end without anyone joining an access point.
+
+## Verification
+
+- ✅ The bench C3 runs MoonLight from a USB flash.
+- ✅ The bench C3 makes the WLED-to-MoonLight move over WiFi alone, and survives a power cut at every step outside the table write.
+- ✅ The bulb runs MoonLight with its five channels driven, verified by your eyes.

+# Plan: Boards known by name
+
+A setting that points at another board, such as the MIDI service's `host`, takes an address or a name, and a card that reports a peer shows its address.
+An address says nothing about which board it is, and it changes when the network changes: a new router hands out new addresses.
+A name survives that, but it resolves through mDNS, which is multicast, the traffic a router can drop.
+This plan resolves a board's name from MoonLight's own discovery and shows names where addresses appear, while the address stays what travels on the wire.
+
+## What exists
+
+- The Devices module discovers every MoonLight board on the network, by name and address, from presence packets sent on a multicast group and on the broadcast address. Broadcast reaches every WiFi station, so this list holds even on a router that filters multicast.
+- The MIDI card names its peer ("shared with MM-StadBeest") because RTP-MIDI's handshake carries a name. That is the protocol's own name, not a general mechanism.
+- Every other peer is an address: the Audio card says "receiving from 192.168.1.125".
+- The host settings of MIDI, Audio, OSC and Network Send take names through `HostResolver`: a `.local` name by mDNS, anything else by DNS, in the background.
+- On the StadBeest (2026-10-09), one setting holds an address: the legs' `Midi.host` = 192.168.1.101, the bridge. OSC and audio use multicast and need none.
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. One lookup, in core
+
+The Devices module answers the name for an address and the address for a name, from the list it already keeps.
+It is the one home of that mapping; nothing else resolves names.
+
+About 40 lines and two tests: an hour.
+
+### 2. A peer is shown by name
+
+A status that names a peer uses the lookup: "receiving from MM-S31 (192.168.1.125)".
+A peer the list does not know, a desk or a computer, keeps its address alone.
+
+About 20 lines across the cards that name a peer (Audio, Network Receive, MIDI), plus a test: an hour.
+
+### 3. An address setting shows the name
+
+A text control that holds an address or a list of addresses says so when it is declared, so the UI knows without guessing from the value.
+The UI then shows the known name next to each address, the same way on every card.
+
+A control flag carried in the module's JSON, the Devices list reaching the UI, and one rendering rule in `app.js` with its JS test: about 100 lines, half a day.
+
+### 4. A board's name resolves through discovery
+
+`HostResolver` asks the lookup first and falls back to mDNS and DNS, so a MoonLight board's name resolves from the Devices list, which broadcast keeps current even on a router that drops multicast.
+Every host setting gets it at once, since they all resolve through `HostResolver`.
+
+About 30 lines and a test: two hours.
+
+### 5. Tests and docs
+
+- Unit tests: the lookup both ways, a status naming a known and an unknown peer, a board name resolving through the Devices list before mDNS.
+- The multi-board how-to gets an addressing section: reservations on the installation's own router, or names in the host settings.
+
+The tests come with each step above; the docs are an hour.
+
+## Estimate
+
+| Step | Size | Work |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1. Lookup | ~40 lines | 1 hour |
+| 2. Peer by name | ~20 lines | 1 hour |
+| 3. Name next to an address | ~100 lines | half a day |
+| 4. Name through discovery | ~30 lines | 2 hours |
+| 5. Docs | one section | 1 hour |
+| **Total** | **~190 lines** | **about 1.5 days**, plus an hour of your testing on the StadBeest |
+
+Stopping after step 3 is about 1 day.
+
+## Decisions
+
+- Steps 1 to 3 show names where addresses appear; step 4 makes a name in a host setting hold on a router that drops multicast. Do all four, or 1 and 4 first?
+- A control declares that it holds an address (step 3) rather than the UI matching any value that looks like one, since a value that merely looks like an address is not always one.
+
+## What it removes
+
+Nothing in code: the MIDI card keeps the protocol's name, which is authoritative for that link.
+For a user it removes the need to keep addresses fixed, once step 4 is in.

+# Plan: Safe mode and factory reset
+
+A device that a setting or a script keeps crashing, or that a weak supply browns out, comes up in safe mode by itself, reachable and with its lights off, so the setting can be fixed.
+A device that cannot be reached gets its access point back by switching it on and off four times, each within a few seconds, with its setup kept; a factory reset on the System card brings it back as installed.
+Both read one record of how the last boots went, kept in flash from the very start of boot.
+
+## Where it starts
+
+- `opens` on the Access Point card has `first setup only` in place of `never`, which is what `never` did: open until a network or Ethernet is configured, closed after. Done, uncommitted.
+- Four quick power-ons forget the known networks, counted by `platform::quickPowerCycles()` in NVS and cleared by a one-shot timer after 5 seconds of uptime, read in `NetworkModule::setup`. Done, uncommitted, and step 2 replaces what it resets and where.
+- The old ewowi/MoonLight had a safe mode: any abnormal restart (a crash, a watchdog, a brownout) started the next boot without LED drivers, live scripts or more than 1,024 lights, with a 🛡️ in the status bar that restarted normally when clicked.
+
+## Steps
+
+### 1. One record of how the last boots went
+
+`platform::quickPowerCycles()` becomes `platform::bootRecord()`: how many power-ons and how many abnormal restarts (a panic, a watchdog, a brownout) came in a row, each without 5 seconds of uptime between them.
+Counted once per boot in NVS, and cleared by the one-shot timer once the device has stayed up, so the write stays off the render loop.
+A restart from the UI, an update or a deep sleep counts as neither.
+
+About 40 lines across the platform and its desktop seam: 1 hour.
+
+### 2. Access back: four quick power-ons
+
+At the start of `mm_main`, four power-ons in a row open the access point for this boot, whatever `opens` says, and change nothing else: the known networks, the light setup and the presets all stay.
+It is the way back for a device whose router changed while its access point is set to `first setup only`: join the access point, set the new network on the WiFi card, and the device carries on as it was.
+The System card says the access point was opened by switching, and the next ordinary boot follows `opens` again.
+The network module loses its own reset (`forgetAll`, `resetByCycling_`), which forgot the networks.
+
+A device in a brownout loop takes the gesture too: each switch-on is a power-on, counted before any light is driven, and the brownout restarts in between neither count nor clear it. Safe mode (step 4) is what gets it running again.
+
+About 30 lines: 1 hour.
+
+### 3. Factory reset: a button on the System card
+
+`factory reset`, pressed twice as Restore is, deletes `/.config` (every module setting and the presets) and restarts, so the device starts as freshly installed with its access point open.
+Scripts and other files stay, since they are content rather than settings; the installer's erase is the way to clear everything.
+It is reached through the UI, from the home network or from the access point step 2 opened, so no gesture of its own is needed.
+
+About 30 lines: 1 to 2 hours.
+
+### 4. Safe mode: abnormal restarts in a row
+
+Two abnormal restarts in a row start the next boot in safe mode, which keeps the network and the UI and leaves out what can crash a device or overload its supply:
+- the LED drivers do not start, the preview does;
+- MoonLive scripts are not compiled or run;
+- a layout is capped at 1,024 lights.
+
+The System card says why, with the reset reason the UI already shows, and a restart button that starts normally, since the record clears once the device stayed up.
+A single crash starts normally, so one random crash in a museum night does not turn the lights off.
+
+About 80 lines across core, the drivers, MoonLive and the layouts: half a day.
+
+### 5. Tests and docs
+
+- Unit tests through the desktop seam: four quick power-ons open the access point with every setting kept, three do not; the factory reset deletes `/.config` and keeps a script; two abnormal restarts start safe mode with no driver, no script and the cap, one does not; the status names each.
+- On the bench C3: the gesture by switching its hub port, and the factory reset button.
+- On the StadBeest legs (LightCrafter 16): safe mode by a real brownout, since that board browns out at full brightness. Brightness to the maximum, and after two brownouts it must come up in safe mode, its lights off and its UI reachable.
+- Docs: the System card (safe mode, factory reset), troubleshooting (a device that crashes, a device you cannot reach), MIGRATING (the gesture opens the access point, the button resets the config).
+
+Tests and docs: half a day.
+
+## Estimate
+
+| Step | Size | Work |
+|---|---|---|
+| 1. Boot record | ~40 lines | 1 hour |
+| 2. Access back by switching | ~30 lines | 1 hour |
+| 3. Factory reset button | ~30 lines | 1 to 2 hours |
+| 4. Safe mode | ~80 lines | half a day |
+| 5. Tests and docs | | half a day |
+| **Total** | **~180 lines plus tests** | **about 1.5 days**, plus your testing on a board |
+
+## Decisions
+
+- Does the access point the gesture opens carry the first known network's password, or is it open for that boot? Switching the device four times is proof of physical access, and the owner of a changed router may no longer know the old password.
+- Two abnormal restarts for safe mode, or three? Two catches a brownout loop sooner; three tolerates a pair of unrelated crashes.
+- Does safe mode also start at a low brightness, or is leaving the LED drivers off enough? Off is the stronger guarantee against a brownout.
+
+## What it removes
+
+The network module's own power-cycle reset, which forgot the networks: step 2 opens the access point instead and forgets nothing.

+### wled_migration_test
+
+Test the over-the-air migration from WLED to MoonLight on a bench board, with a power cut at every step. [Migrating a device to MoonLight over the air](../docs/how-to/migrating-over-the-air.md) describes the migration itself. It rewrites the whole flash of the board on the port.
+
+```bash
+uv run moondeck/build/build_esp32.py --firmware esp32c3 --migrate-pause 10
+uv run moondeck/build/wled_migration_test.py --port /dev/cu.usbmodemXXXX
+uv run moondeck/build/wled_migration_test.py --port /dev/cu.usbmodemXXXX --rounds ship,3
+```
+
+Each round puts the board back as a WLED device ships: WLED 0.15.0, its bootloader and [its partition table](../esp32/partitions/wled_4mb_1mb_fs.csv), downloaded once into `build/wled-migration-test//`. It joins the board to the WiFi over Improv, uploads a migration image through WLED's update page, and passes when the board then answers as MoonBase.
+
+The rounds are `ship`, `move` and `1` to `5`. `ship` uploads the shipped image, and `move` uploads the rehearsal image after a WLED self-update, so it has to move itself aside. `1` to `5` reset the board in that pause of the rehearsal image. Run it before a release that changes `moonbase/migrate/`.

+
+Each round puts the board back in the state a WLED device ships in (WLED 0.15.0, its bootloader and its partition table), joins it to the WiFi over Improv, uploads a migration image through WLED's own update page, and checks that the board ends up answering as MoonBase.

## What's in this directory
-- [`index.html`](index.html) — the installer page. Imports the shared
- [`install-picker.js`](../../src/ui/install-picker.js) module and rewrites
- the picker's GitHub-release URLs to same-origin Pages URLs before handing
- them to the custom orchestrator (Web Serial is CORS-bound).
-- [`install-orchestrator.js`](install-orchestrator.js) — owns the
- SerialPort across flash → reboot → Improv provision → config push. Replaces the
- ESP Web Tools install button (EWT 10.x's `state-changed` event fires inside a
- shadow DOM invisible to the host page; the orchestrator owns the whole flow so it
- can write its own vendor RPC frames). After provisioning it pushes the picked
- device-model's catalog over serial as APPLY_OP ops (a `clearChildren` pre-pass for
- any `replaceChildren` container, then an `add` per module + a `set` per control) —
- same operations the HTTP REST API does, applied by the same device-side core. An
- **Apply device defaults** checkbox gates that push: it auto-ticks with **Erase chip
- first** (a clean slate wants defaults) and starts unticked otherwise, so re-flashing
- a configured device keeps its current modules/controls. The board's `txPower`
- brown-out cap is still sent via its own `SET_TX_POWER` RPC **before** provisioning
- (it must land before the first association on weak-power boards). When the device
- doesn't speak Improv back (typed-IP / eth-only path), no serial push happens — apply
- the defaults later from MoonDeck on the LAN (plain HTTP REST, no mixed-content).
-- [`devices.js`](devices.js) — the *Your devices* list. Stores devices the
- user provisioned from this page so they can re-visit / erase / forget them
- (Visit / Erase / Forget). The device-model defaults are applied during the install
- over serial, so there is no "inject" button here — to re-apply a model to an
- already-running device, use MoonDeck on the LAN.
-- [`deviceModels.json`](deviceModels.json) — the device-model catalog (name → firmware
- variants + the modules/controls). The installer walks it to emit the APPLY_OP ops;
- MoonDeck and the picker also read it. Schema below.
-- [`favicon.png`](favicon.png) — moon-man, same as the device UI.
-- [`README.md`](README.md) — this file.

## Picture board picker
-The board picker is a visual card grid driven by each board's `image` and
-(optional) `url` catalog fields (see the schema below — both are optional; a card
-without an `image` just shows no photo, without a `url` shows no product link) plus
-its `supported`/`planned` capability chips. It reuses the installer's flash machinery unchanged: the grid drives the
-shared [`install-picker.js`](../../src/ui/install-picker.js) through a hidden board
