Without ROOM_PASSWORD the guest password defaults to empty, and a client
sending a blank password is granted read+write access (can post). Every
other board's room_server env sets ROOM_PASSWORD; the ThinkNode M6 and M1
were the only two shipping an open room. Default them to "hello" to match
the rest of the tree; operators can still change it at runtime with
'set guest.password'.
next_check and next_gps_update stored a future millis() value in a signed
long and compared with a naive '>'. After the ~24.8-day millis() sign flip
the deadline sits above the wrapped millis(), so the block never runs again
and GPS->RTC time-sync (and the location cache refresh) stall permanently
until reboot. Switch to unsigned deadlines with the wrap-safe signed-
difference compare '(long)(millis() - deadline) > 0', matching the idiom in
Dispatcher::millisHasNowPassed.
Also: reorder the MicroNMEALocationProvider ctor init-list to declaration
order (silences -Wreorder) and drop the always-true 'if (_claims > 0)' guard
in claim() (claim() always runs after _claims++, so it is >= 1).
The M6 is the only board whose simple_repeater env ships with MESH_DEBUG=1
and GPS_NMEA_DEBUG=1 enabled. MESH_DEBUG=1 adds a 5-second boot delay
(examples/simple_repeater/main.cpp) plus verbose per-packet serial prints on
the hot RX/TX path; GPS_NMEA_DEBUG=1 echoes every GPS UART character to the
serial console (MicroNMEALocationProvider.h). Every sibling repeater env
(M1, M3, t1000-e, RAK, Heltec) ships these off, and the M6 room_server env
in this same file already has them commented. Comment them out to match.
External watchdog support was added (but never merged) for MeshTower V1. The update's V2's #defines to follow the conventions set there and piggy back off the support already written for V1.
Tools > Admin now opens on a This-device / Remote-node chooser. "This
device" is a login-free 2-tab carousel (System: Name/Radio/TX power/
Lat/Lon, Actions: Send advert/Reboot) mapped onto NodePrefs/sensors and
reusing Settings' own apply chains -- no CommonCLI port. "Remote node..."
opens Tools > Nodes in a pick-mode (borrow-another-screen's-list idiom),
and Nodes gains an "Admin" Hold-Enter action; both converge on the single
canonical UITask::openAdminFor() -> AdminScreen::startFor().
Also:
- KeyboardWidget: opt-in PlaceholderRefreshFn hook for contextual {}-key
CLI command-name completion (word-replacing); default behaviour and all
other keyboard uses unchanged.
- TabBar: ellipsize() re-measures the real "text..." candidate per step
(+ width clamp) so dots can't spill into a neighbour/reserved icon.
- ChannelsView: form rows truncate instead of wrapping.
- Reboot moved off the default-selected Actions row (fires with no confirm).

Messages:
- Add/edit/delete channels on-device (new ChannelsView, owned by the renamed
MessagesScreen — was QuickMsgScreen, whose name no longer matched its scope).
Channel secret entry supports a typed passphrase (SHA-256'd, same primitive
the library already uses for the routing hash) or a raw 32-hex-char key.
- MyMesh::setChannelLocal() factors out the setChannel/saveChannels/
onChannelRemoved sequence previously duplicated across the two
CMD_SET_CHANNEL branches, shared now by the BLE and on-device paths.
Tools > Admin (new):
- Log into a repeater/room server's admin account and send CLI commands,
the on-device equivalent of the app's repeater-admin feature.
- Commands are organised into category tabs (System/Radio/Routing/Actions)
with common get/set fields (name, radio profile, tx power, repeat, advert
intervals, ...) plus a free-text "Custom command..." fallback for anything
else. A field row fetches the current value, opens it pre-filled for
editing, and sends the change — falling back to a blank editor if the
fetch fails or times out.
- The admin password persists and self-heals exactly like room logins in
Messages: saved on a confirmed admin-level login, forgotten on a failed
one, left alone if merely under-privileged.
- New MyMesh::sendAdminCommand()/AbstractUITask::onAdminReply() plumbing so
a reply reaches the UI without touching the existing BLE/app CLI-terminal
path (queueMessage's should_display gate is untouched).
Shared TabBar.h extracted from NearbyScreen/BotScreen's independently
duplicated tab-carousel rendering (now a third consumer via Admin) — also
fixes neighbouring tabs vanishing outright when they didn't fully fit;
they now truncate with an ellipsis instead.
Keyboard: the combined "Ext.Latin" alphabet split into 8 separate,
linguistically complete per-language keyboards (Polish, Czech, Slovak,
German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Nordic), and fixed an OLED-only bug
where tall accented glyphs overlapped the keyboard's separator line
(SH1106's Lemon-font ascent constant was 2-3px short for them).

Reordered BotScreen's carousel to Channel / Room / Direct / Other and
made Channel the default opening tab, per feedback that the screen
should start from the first tab shown. Docs updated to match.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Auto-Reply Bot gains a third target (room servers, alongside DM and
channel), new {name}/{hops} reply placeholders, and a DM all/favourites
allow-list. BotScreen is redesigned as a circular tab carousel (Direct /
Channel / Room / Other, same interaction as Nearby Nodes' filter tabs)
instead of one long scrolling list, which also exposed and fixed a
leftover coupling where Channel/Room trigger-replies and their !command
handling secretly depended on the DM tab's Enable/Commands toggles —
each target's Enable and Commands are now fully independent.
- NodePrefs: bot_room_enabled/prefix/trigger/reply, bot_dm_scope,
bot_commands_ch/bot_commands_room (bot_commands_enabled repurposed as
DM-only). SCHEMA_SENTINEL 0xC0DE001D -> 0xC0DE001F; sizeof unchanged
at 2712 (new bytes absorbed existing padding, verified via a
standalone host compile + offsetof check).
- DataStore: persists all new fields; seeds bot_commands_ch/room from
the old shared bot_commands_enabled on upgrade so existing
channel/room command behaviour isn't silently lost.
- MyMeshBot: tryBotReplyRoom/tryBotRoomCommand mirror the channel bot's
shape but post via sendMessage (room relays to members itself);
requires an existing login session with that room, same as a manual
post would. botDmSenderAllowed() gates DM trigger-reply/commands on
the favourites bit when bot_dm_scope=Fav.
- MsgExpand: {name}/{hops} as optional trailing params (default
nullptr/-1, no existing caller affected) — deliberately not exposed
on the general compose keyboard, only on bot Reply fields.
- QuickMsgScreen/UITask: room-target picker (mirrors the channel
picker), routing through the existing room-login prompt when there's
no saved password yet.
- BotScreen: tab carousel (LEFT/RIGHT switches tabs, UP/DOWN moves
rows, Enter is now the only way to change a value); Enable split out
of Channel/Room's combo row; Quiet Hours gained a stepper sub-mode;
Commands moved from a shared toggle into each tab.
- docs/tools_screen.md updated for the new tab layout and behaviour.

Alarm repeat (Clock Tools):
- NodePrefs::alarm_repeat_mask (weekday bitmask, struct tm::tm_wday
convention) — new Repeat row cycles Off/Daily/Weekdays/Weekends.
computeAlarmNextFire() scans the next 7 days for a matching weekday when
set; evaluateAlarm() only clears alarm_on (one-shot) when the mask is
empty, otherwise re-arms. mask==0 is byte-for-byte the original one-shot
behaviour, so existing users see no change.
On-screen keyboard alphabets (Settings > Keyboard > Alphabet):
- KeyboardWidget reworked from single-byte ASCII cells to UTF-8 codepoints
(insertion, backspace and T9 in-place cycling all codepoint-aware now, so a
multi-byte character is never split) — see kbApplyCapsUtf8/kbUtf8Len/
kbUtf8CharAt/kbUtf8LastCharBytes.
- Cyrillic, Greek and an Extended Latin set (Polish/Czech/Slovak/German/
French/Spanish/Nordic diacritics) join the keyboard's existing #@/abc page
cycle (Latin -> alt alphabet -> Symbols -> Latin) — no new key needed.
NodePrefs::keyboard_alt_alphabet picks which one, if any, is active.
- Lemon font is forced on transiently inside KeyboardWidget::render() (saved
and restored every call) whenever the alt-alphabet page is showing or
already-typed text has non-ASCII bytes, so composing is visible even if
Font is set to Default.
- Each script's caps-shift rule is distinct and documented in
kbApplyCapsUtf8: flat -0x20 for ASCII/Cyrillic/Greek (with the ё/ς
exceptions), flat -0x20 for Latin-1 (à-þ), and an adjacent-pair -1 for
Latin Extended-A (verified against every character actually used, not a
blanket rule for that whole Unicode block).
NodePrefs schema: two tail-appended fields this session (alarm_repeat_mask,
keyboard_alt_alphabet), SCHEMA_SENTINEL 0xC0DE001B -> 0xC0DE001D,
sizeof(NodePrefs) 2496 -> 2504 (verified via a standalone host compile).
Docs: Clock Tools' Repeat row, Settings > Keyboard > Alphabet, and the
Rooms keyboard note (no longer ASCII-only once an alphabet is enabled).
Not build-verified — no PlatformIO toolchain available this session. Caps
mappings cross-checked against Python's Unicode case tables; UTF-8 literal
bytes verified at the byte level.
- Context menus (PopupMenu, Nearby/QuickMsg call sites) go back to centring on
screen; the header's discoverable-menu glyph stays, but dropping the popup
out of its corner looked bad on some screens.
- Unread pill badge digit wasn't centred: Adafruit_GFX's classic built-in font
(SH1106/SSD1306) always pads a measured string by one trailing advance
column regardless of the glyph drawn, so centring on the raw width left 1px
more slack on the right than the left. New DisplayDriver::
textWidthTrailingGap() (0 by default) corrects for it on those two backends.
- On-device room Logout: mirrors the app's CMD_LOGOUT (drops keep-alive
tracking, forgets the saved password) so a room can be deliberately signed
out of from the Room options menu, not just re-logged-in.
Not build-verified — no PlatformIO toolchain available this session.
Previously load() returned true unconditionally on file-open success,
masking truncated or corrupt /regions2 files. Additionally, the first
field of each entry record (r->id) used the same success-chaining
pattern as subsequent fields, so a clean EOF at a record boundary set
success=false and would have been indistinguishable from real
corruption once the return value was fixed.
The r->id read is now split out: n==0 is a clean EOF (break, success
retains its prior value from the header read), n!=sizeof(r->id) is a
partial read or corruption (break, success=false). load() now returns
success instead of an unconditional true, so its return value reflects
the actual parse outcome.
Companion fix to #2372, which fixed the same return-true hardcoding
in save(). (#1891 originally reported this on load() but was closed
when #2372 landed — that PR only touched save(); this addresses the
load() side.)
Adds a small allocation for groupdata packets for the Meshcore firmware for the StreamSensor product. It was previously a LoRaWAN platform, and we've moved to Meshcore.
Hold-Enter context menus were invisible. Add a menu affordance to every screen
that has one:
- A small ≡ glyph in the header's top-right, via new DisplayDriver::
drawContextMenuHint() and an optional menu_hint arg on drawCenteredHeader() /
drawInvertedHeader() (reserves the corner so the title never runs under it).
- The glyph highlights (corner cell filled, bars knocked out) while the menu is
open, tying the hint to the popup it spawned — driven by a menu_open flag the
screens pass from their live popup state.
- The context menu now drops out of that corner: PopupMenu gains an opt-in
top-right anchor (begin(..., anchor_top_right)); it right-aligns under the
header instead of centring, so the menu reads as emerging from the ≡. Default
stays centred, so non-context popups (Tools/Settings/etc.) are untouched.
Enabled on Nodes (list/scan/detail) and Messages (mode select, contact/room and
channel pickers, DM and channel history).
Both solo envs build green.

renderBatteryIndicator() drew the secondary icons in a fixed sequence, so a busy
bar (many background modes on) shrank the node-name area to a couple of ellipsised
characters. Rework it into a priority-ordered list laid out right->left with a
reserved minimum name width: once an icon won't fit above the reserve, every
lower-priority icon after it is dropped too.
Priority: BT > GPS fix > alarm > mute > auto-advert > trail > live-share > repeater
(battery stays rightmost). Blinking icons still reserve their slot while off, so
the name width doesn't flicker with the blink. Also -39 lines (eight if-blocks
collapse to one table + loop).
Both solo envs build green.

The Recent adverts carousel page was a read-only name+age list of recently-heard
nodes — now covered by the Nodes screen (which folds getRecentlyHeard() non-contacts
into its list). Remove it from the UX:
- isPageVisible() hard-hides HomePage::RECENT, so it drops out of the carousel for
everyone (default and custom page orders, existing users included).
- Delete the dead RECENT render block, the nav "Recent adverts" alert and the unused
AdvertPath recent[] member.
- Drop HOME_RECENT from Settings > Home Pages so there's no dead toggle.
HPB_RECENT bit index is left intact, so persisted page_order / home_pages_mask stay
valid (a stored RECENT entry is simply skipped) — no migration, no schema bump.
Both solo envs build green.

Turn Nearby Nodes into the single node hub and make its navigation legible.
Node management (no phone app needed):
- MyMesh gains addDiscoveredContact() and deleteContactByKey(); CMD_REMOVE_CONTACT
now reuses deleteContactByKey() (one delete path: contact + blob + room password
+ UI cleanup + lazy write).
- Action menu (Hold Enter) gains Add contact (a new scanned node), Favourite /
Unfavourite (pin to the first free dial slot), and Delete contact (confirm first,
defaults to Cancel). Actions are offered contextually per row.
- A pinned contact shows a star in the list row, next to any live-share diamond.
Absorb passively-heard adverts: refreshStored() folds getRecentlyHeard() nodes that
aren't already listed as name+age rows (All filter only — AdvertPath has no type),
so "recently heard" no longer needs its own page.
Legible filter navigation: the filter (LEFT/RIGHT) is now a visible tab strip — the
active filter is a centred inverted pill, neighbours fan out and wrap around
(circular, first<->last). Only whole tabs are drawn so labels never wrap a line.
Rename Tools > "Nearby Nodes" to "Nodes".
Both solo envs build green.

UI-polish trio from CODE_REVIEW (biggest "feels finished" gain per line):
- Pill unread badges: new DisplayDriver::drawUnreadBadge()/unreadBadgeWidth()
draw a filled capsule with the count knocked out (corners knocked back for a
rounded look; inverts on a selected row). Replaces the bare right-aligned
digits in MODE_SELECT, the contact/channel pickers and favourites tiles.
No <stdio.h> in the header — fmtBadgeCount formats manually, clamps to 99+.
- Unified DM/CH history headers: DM_HIST and CHANNEL_HIST drew their titles by
hand (drawTextCentered + fillRect at lh+1), a different height/separator than
every other screen. Both now route through drawCenteredHeader().
- Trimmed default home carousel: new NodePrefs::HP_DEFAULT (Clock, Tools,
Shutdown, Favourites, Map; Messages + Settings always visible = 7 pages).
applyDefaults() seeds it instead of HP_ALL. Recent/Radio/BT/Advert/GPS/Sensors
are opt-in via Settings > Home Pages. Existing users keep their saved mask —
factory default only; no migration, no schema bump.
Both solo envs build green (OLED RAM 69.9%/Flash 62.8%; e-ink SUCCESS).

A full (non-partial) refresh on every screen change (638eea7b) turned out to be
far too aggressive on real e-ink hardware: every navigation black-flashes,
which is worse than the ghosting it was clearing. Remove the whole mechanism —
DisplayDriver::forceFullRefresh() virtual, GxEPDDisplay's _force_full flag and
override, the endFrame() branch, and the setCurrScreen() call. E-ink is back to
interval-only full refreshes (Settings > Full refresh interval).
The favourites "(gone)"-tile prune that shipped in the same commit is kept.

Logging in to a room server (first-time prompt or a remembered password) used
to leave the user on the room list, needing a second Enter to open the chat.
onRoomLoginResult() now opens the room history on success via a shared
openDmHistory() helper (extracted from the Enter-on-contact path).
The login result is async, so the auto-enter is gated on the user still being
on that room in the picker: phase CONTACT_PICK, room mode, no context menu /
share / pick-target sub-flow active, and the result pubkey matching the
selected contact. Otherwise it stays put (no yanking the user into a screen
they navigated away from).
Resolves the "auto-enter after login" code-review item. Builds green:

The shared keyboard seeds {loc}/{time} on begin() for message composition, but
a room/repeater login password is not a message — a placeholder token there is
nonsensical and a footgun (picking one inserts literal "{time}" into the
password). Clear them right after opening the keyboard in both room-login paths
(context-menu Login… and the Enter-on-room prompt), matching the same fix
already applied to preset names and waypoint labels.

Two duplications surfaced by a framework-consistency pass:
- KeyboardWidget applied the a-z shift-uppercase at five draw/commit sites
with an inline `if (caps && ch >= 'a' && ch <= 'z')`. Fold them into one
`kbApplyCaps(ch, caps)` helper.
- The favourites grid drew the empty "+" tile from two branches (the gone-slot
prune and the always-empty slot). Route both through a single `has_contact`
flag so the "+" and the trailing selection-colour reset each live at one site.
No behaviour change. Builds green: WioTrackerL1_companion_solo_dual.

T9 keys now read like a phone keypad — each cell is labelled <digit><group>
(e.g. 2abc), with the digit matching what the multi-tap cycle lands on after
the letters. No separator space: the widest group (".,!?'-") plus the digit
already fills a narrow 128px OLED cell at 3 columns.
Also fills in the v1.22 release notes (T9 keyboard, trail auto-save, Clock
Tools in Tools, Map/Shutdown reorderable, battery-read fix, the UI-audit fix
batch, discover-dedup, favourites self-heal, preset-name placeholder, OLED
frame-skip, e-ink full-refresh) and syncs the solo-feature docs: new Keyboard
settings section, Trail Auto-save row, and Clock Tools reachable from Tools.

The favourites render already continues on !found (gone-slot prune), so the

Two UI quick wins from the 2026-07-05 review:
- E-ink: force a full (non-partial) refresh on the first frame of a new
screen. Inter-screen ghosting was the most visible cheap win — the
N-partials interval alone doesn't catch navigation. New
DisplayDriver::forceFullRefresh() (no-op on OLED), set in setCurrScreen()
and consumed by GxEPDDisplay::endFrame().
- Favourites: clear a stale "(gone)" tile at render time so it reverts to an
empty "+" slot. Happens when prefs outlive the contact list (e.g. a wiped
/contacts3); onContactRemoved only catches a live delete. Pruned slots are
persisted once per pass (self-healing — an emptied slot can't re-fire).
Builds green: WioTrackerL1_companion_solo_dual (OLED),
WioTrackerL1Eink_companion_solo_dual (e-ink).

The SH1106 path always pushed the full 1 KB buffer over I2C every endFrame,
even on static screens (clock, home) that don't change between updates. Hash
the GFX buffer (FNV-1a, no external dep — the CRC32 lib is only wired into
e-ink builds) and skip display.display() when it matches the last frame
pushed. _force_redraw forces a flush on the first frame and after
turnOn()/clear() so a post-wake or post-clear frame can't be wrongly skipped.
Mirrors the existing e-ink CRC-skip. Builds green: WioTrackerL1_companion_solo_dual.

Losing the whole route on a low-battery auto-shutdown was the worst solo-mode
failure. New NodePrefs::trail_autosave_lowbatt toggle (Tools > Trail >
Settings > Auto-save, default OFF): UITask::shutdown() writes the live trail
to /trail when the toggle is on and _trail.count() > 0. The count guard stops
an empty trail from wiping a previously saved one; it overwrites the same
/trail file the manual Trail > Save uses.
Schema bumped 0xC0DE001A -> 0xC0DE001B: append-only tail field with a load
clamp, so pre-0x1B saves default to off. sizeof(NodePrefs) is unchanged (the
byte fits existing padding after keyboard_type), so the tripwire assert stays
2496.
Builds green: WioTrackerL1_companion_solo_dual (RAM 69.9%, Flash 62.8%).

The "(N)" origin readout printed the raw wire path_len. That byte packs the
path hash-size mode in its top 2 bits and the hop count in the low 6, so with
path_hash_mode >= 1 (2-byte hashes) it over-reported — e.g. "(66)" for a
2-hop message. Mask & 63 (getPathHashCount) so it shows the real hop count.
Affects the ui-orig variants only (ui-new/ui-tiny ignore the arg).
