A client setting is global today: pick 4K@120 HDR and the retro box gets it too.
The one escape hatch (per-host `clipboard_sync`) proves the shape works but covers a
single field. This is P0 of design/client-settings-profiles.md — the headless core the
shells, Apple, Android and the deep-link grammar all build against. No UI yet.
A profile is a NAMED BUNDLE OF OVERRIDES, not a snapshot: `SettingsOverlay` is sparse
`Option`s, so a field the user never touched keeps following the global value live, and
fixing a global once fixes it everywhere. `Some(x)` equal to today's global is still
meaningful — it pins x against a later global change — which is why the UI will write
`Some` on touch and `None` on an explicit reset, never by diffing.
The catalog is its own `client-profiles.json`, deliberately not part of the settings
file: that file has five whole-file load-modify-save writers with no merge, so a profile
written by one would be dropped by the next. Which host uses which profile is a field on
the host record instead of a map keyed by host — that is what dissolves the client's
long-standing "what identifies a host record" question for this feature.
Resolution has exactly one implementation, `trust::effective_settings()`:
effective = overlay(profile).apply(global)
profile = one-off pick ?? host binding ?? none
Both session construction sites go through it (`main.rs` AND `console.rs` — touching one
and not the other is a Windows-only build break), so the console, and therefore Decky,
honor host bindings with no work of their own. Nothing here can fail a connect: a
deleted binding resolves as "no profile", and a one-off that can't be honored falls back
to the DEFAULTS rather than to the host's own profile — "connect with Work" must never
quietly stream "Game". `--profile <id|name>` is the one-off door for the shells' coming
"Connect with ▸" and for `punktfunk://…&profile=`; `--profile ""` forces the defaults on
a bound host. The active profile's name closes the stats overlay's first line, so
"which profile am I on?" is answerable without leaving the stream.
Also here, because this effort touches every one of these anyway:
- `KnownHost` gains `profile_id`, `pinned_profiles` and a lazily minted stable `id`. The
id is groundwork (design §4.5) — no lookup is re-keyed, `fp_hex`/`addr:port` stay.
- `upsert` now preserves the state the USER set on a record — the profile binding, its
pins, the clipboard decision, the id — against refreshes that carry none of it.
`clipboard_sync` survived that only because the function happened not to mention it.
- `KnownHost::default()` exists so construction sites read `..Default::default()`; five
hand-written literals were exactly how a new field gets silently dropped on re-pair.
- All three client stores now write temp+rename. A torn settings file loads as `Default`
— i.e. silently resets every setting the user has.

Emulation-and-beyond libraries need more than a title and a poster. Every
library shape (GameEntry, CustomEntry, CustomInput, ProviderEntryInput)
now carries a shared, flattened GameMeta: platform, description,
developer, publisher, release_year, genres, tags, region, players. All
fields are optional and flat on the wire, so existing library.json files,
provider plugins, and clients keep working unchanged.
- Installed-store scanners (Steam, Lutris, Heroic, Epic, GOG, Xbox) stamp
platform=PC; custom/provider entries carry whatever was authored.
- GET /library grows a ?platform= filter (case-insensitive) beside
?provider=.
- Console: the add/edit form gets a Details section (round-tripping every
field, since update replaces the entry), the poster tile a platform
badge (non-PC only — the store badge already implies PC) and the year.
- plugin-kit: ProviderEntry accepts the same fields (new GameMeta schema,
spread flat); SDK + OpenAPI spec regenerated.
- pf-client-core decodes platform for future client badges.

`punktfunk-session --pair <PIN> --connect host[:port]` runs the SPAKE2
ceremony with no window and no toolkit, prints the same
`paired <addr>:<port> fp=<hex>` line as `punktfunk-client --pair`, and
exits. Until now the PIN ceremony lived only in the GTK shell or the Skia
console, so enrolling an embedded/kiosk client meant installing a desktop
on it — or copying the identity store by hand.
Dispatches above every graphics call (the machine may have no display) and
is in the `--no-default-features` build: enrolling must never be the reason
a minimal image pulls in Skia. `--name` defaults to the hostname instead of
the desktop path's hardcoded "Steam Deck".
`forget_placeholder` and `device_name` move into pf_client_core::trust so
the two binaries share one implementation rather than the session
re-deriving them.

One page of everything becomes the cross-client map (the Apple 2026-07
revamp, same shape the Windows client just adopted): General / Display /
Input / Audio / Controllers pages with per-field captions, dynamic where the
meaning depends on the selection (touch mode, resolution, codec). About
stays in the primary menu per GNOME convention; settings search is on.
Combo-row captions are deliberately ONE line — a wrapped subtitle's natural
width crushes the selected-value label into an ellipsis.
New controls, all with existing plumbing: 10-bit HDR (hdr_enabled was
advertised but had no UI), PyroWave in the codec picker (preference-only,
Linux decodes it), a detected-controllers list, auto-wake on connect — gated
at the AppMsg::WakeConnect entry (off: no packet, no wake-and-wait fallback;
the card menu's explicit Wake stays), invert scroll (session plumbing landed
with the Windows parity series), and the GPU + audio endpoint pickers, fed
by a startup worker-thread probe (AppModel::probes) and hidden while empty.
The screenshot harness gains PUNKTFUNK_SHOT_SETTINGS_PAGE to open the
capture on a specific page.

The bridge landed always-on whenever the host permitted it; sharing a
clipboard is a trust decision about a specific host, so it needs to be
opted into. Mirrors the Apple client's per-host model
(StoredHost.clipboardSync, "Share clipboard with this host") rather than a
global switch: KnownHost::clipboard_sync, toggled from the host card's
overflow menu, default off.
The session binary resolves the stored flag itself in session_params, so a
direct connect and the console's own launches honor the same decision
without every caller having to remember to pass it.

A host's pairing-gate rejections (not armed / bound to another device /
rate-limited / identity required / denied / approval timeout / superseded /
wire-version mismatch) used to drop the connection with a bare code-0 close,
and every client collapsed that — plus plain unreachability — into one
"wrong PIN / not accepted" message. A dead network path, a disarmed host,
and an operator denial were indistinguishable, which is exactly the
misdiagnosis behind the recent Android pairing support thread.
- core: new ungated `reject` module — shared close-code block 0x60–0x67
(+ 0x42 busy promoted from the host), `RejectReason`, and
`PunktfunkError::Rejected`; `pair()`/`connect()` decode the host's
ApplicationClosed code into `Rejected` instead of a generic Io error.
C ABI v7: status block −20…−28 and `punktfunk_connect_ex8` (`status_out`
reports the failure cause; NULL-return alone can't). Wire unchanged —
old peers see exactly the old bare close.
- host: every gate rejection `conn.close()`s with its typed code (and the
human reason as close bytes) before erroring out of the session task.
- pf-client-core: shared `pair_error_message`/`connect_reject_message`
wording consumed by the Windows + Linux + console-UI + CLI surfaces; a
connect failure now renders the host's stated reason.
- android: `nativeTakeLastError()` JNI token + `ConnectErrors.kt` — a
network timeout is no longer reported as "wrong PIN, or the host isn't
armed", and a typed rejection skips the wake-and-wait fallback (the host
is demonstrably awake).
- apple: `HostRejection` + `.rejected`; the pair sheet and session alerts
show the stated reason; connect moves to `ex8`.
Completes the cross-client half of the hunks that rode along in 12148243
(client.rs / trust.rs / punktfunk1.rs) — main did not build without this.
Validated: workspace clippy -D warnings + full test suite green on .21
(EXIT=0, 309 host / 148 core suites); macOS core 147+c_abi green; swift
build green; Android Kotlin + native crate green.

The Skia console UI grows from the single library coverflow into a complete
couch shell (Apple gamepad-UI parity), so a Deck/gamescope session is
self-sufficient end to end:
- Home: host carousel (saved + discovered + Add Host tile) with presence
pips, paired locks, wake & connect; A/Y/X/B per the Apple launcher.
- In-console SPAKE2 PIN pairing (previously needed the Decky plugin or a
desktop), add-host with a controller keyboard, couch settings over the
shared Settings store, wake-on-LAN overlay with retry, cancelable dials.
- Shell chrome: screen stack with push/pop entrance/exit choreography
(slide + fade + recede; aurora↔form backdrop crossfade), per-pad button
glyphs (PS shapes vs ABXY, keycaps with no pad), menu haptics, toasts,
embedded Geist typography, in-stream start banner.
- Steam Deck: our OSK never draws — fields start SDL text input (the new
Overlay::text_input_active hook) and Steam's keyboard types; a hint chip
points at STEAM + X. Other Linux gets the full gamepad keyboard tray.
- punktfunk-session: bare --browse opens Home; --browse host opens that
host's library with Home behind it (Decky launches keep working, B now
pops instead of quitting). Service threads run discovery, 10 s probes,
pairing, wake loops, fetches, and known-hosts persistence.
- Presenter contract: Launch actions carry the host, CancelConnect never
engages a won race, pad kind/list ride FrameCtx, menu events flow while
dialing so B can cancel.
Every screen renders to PNG on CPU raster for review
(PF_CONSOLE_DUMP=<dir> cargo test -p pf-console-ui -- --ignored dump).

Add a bounded, trust-agnostic, mDNS-INDEPENDENT QUIC reachability probe and
surface it everywhere saved-host presence is shown, so a host reached over a
routed network (Tailscale/VPN/multicast-filtering LAN) no longer reads Offline
just because it isn't advertising — the display-side companion to the 0.8.4
dial-first connect fix.
Core:
- punktfunk-core: NativeClient::probe (bounded handshake; a real host answers even
on trust mismatch, a wrong/closed/TCP-only port fails) + punktfunk_probe C ABI
(ABI_VERSION 3->4, header regenerated).
- pf-client-core: trust::probe_reachable_many (parallel per-host sweep).
Presence pips now read `advertising OR probed-reachable`, refreshed by a ~10-12s
background sweep off the UI thread:
- Linux (relm4): ui_hosts probed map + HostsMsg::Probed sweep.
- Windows (windows-reactor): pf-probe worker -> HostsProps.probed.
- Apple (SwiftUI): HostStore.refreshReachability, driven by HomeView + GamepadHomeView .task.
- Android (Compose): nativeProbe JNI seam + periodic LaunchedEffect (LNP-gated),
online dot added to the touch HostCard.
- Decky already probes via --list-hosts --probe.
Decky client: make the flatpak client's known-hosts store the single source of
truth via new headless CLI modes (--list-hosts / --add-host / --set-host /
--forget-host / --reset / --reachable). The plugin can now add a host by address,
edit/forget hosts, reset all state (keeping the client identity), and shows
probe-backed online pips — state is shared with the desktop client, not duplicated.
Also lands in-progress Android 17 LNP groundwork (targetSdk 37 +
ACCESS_LOCAL_NETWORK runtime flow, permission dialogs) that was already present in
the working tree.
Verified: cargo check + clippy clean (punktfunk-core, pf-client-core, linux,
android native); android assembleDebug BUILD SUCCESSFUL; decky typecheck + rollup
build clean; probe true/false-positive behaviour exercised against a live host.
Windows and Apple were not compiled locally (no MSVC/Xcode on this Linux box).

`cargo fmt --all --check` (ci.yml) was red on main: the client re-architecture
commits and origin's windows-shortcut commit landed with rustfmt violations
(e.g. a 104-char .with_context line in hyprland.rs, an unsorted mod block in
vdisplay.rs, the input.rs `{`-placement CI flagged). Reformat the tree so the
fmt gate passes; no functional changes.

The GTK client becomes a relm4 component tree: AppModel owns the window,
trust gate (rules 1-3), and the spawned session child's lifecycle as
typed messages; the hosts page is a child component with a
FactoryVecDeque of host cards — the HostsCallbacks Rc<dyn Fn> bag, the
busy Cell, and the Rc<RefCell<HostsUi>> cross-page pokes are gone.
Trust/settings/library dialogs stay plain GTK, invoked from update with
a ComponentSender.
Deleted with the in-process presenter: ui_stream.rs, video_gl.rs,
ui_gamepad_library.rs, launch.rs, the khronos-egl dep, and the
PUNKTFUNK_LEGACY_PRESENTER hatch. Every stream (and the console library)
now runs in punktfunk-session; the shell spawns it for card connects and
exec's it for --connect/--browse so the Decky wrapper keeps working. The
request-access flow gains --connect-timeout + a CancelHandle that kills
the child. Screenshot scenes re-pointed onto the components (verified:
hosts + library self-capture; the dialog scenes present correctly and
capture under a GL renderer); the gamepad-library scene is gone with the
page.

Each client learns a host's MAC from the mDNS `mac` TXT while it's awake, persists it on the saved-host record, and — when reconnecting to an offline host — sends a magic packet before connecting, plus an explicit "Wake host" action. Apple wraps the C-ABI; linux/windows call the core fn directly (linux also gains a --wake CLI mode); android via a new nativeWakeOnLan JNI export (the mDNS browse record gains a 7th mac field); decky shells out to the linux client's --wake before launching the stream.
iOS/tvOS need the managed com.apple.developer.networking.multicast entitlement (pending Apple approval), so the wake path + UI are gated off via PunktfunkConnection.wakeOnLANAvailable and the entitlement is commented out — keeping iOS/tvOS releasable. MAC-learning stays active on every platform so it lights up the moment it's ungated. macOS works today.

GTK Linux client:
- hosts/library: clicking a card was dead — the handler was on
FlowBoxChild::activate (never emitted on click); bridge child-activated
→ child.activate() on the FlowBox (ui_hosts, ui_library).
- stream: the Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D/Q/S chords (and all key forwarding) were
dropped because the key controller sat on the overlay, which loses focus
to the header back button after nav.push+fullscreen — move it to the
window and remove it on teardown.
- video: a mid-session VAAPI decode error rebuilt a software decoder but
never requested a keyframe, so under the infinite GOP the picture stayed
gray/frozen forever. Request an IDR on any VAAPI error, keep the hardware
decoder, and demote to software only after repeated failures.
- stream: fix a per-session Capture↔overlay reference cycle that leaked the
overlay subtree + the Arc<NativeClient> on every session end — hold the
overlay weakly.
- stream: accumulate the fractional wheel remainder so precision-scroll
(Deck trackpad / hi-res wheels) sub-unit deltas aren't dropped.
- gamepad library: keep the launcher smooth on the Deck — freeze the aurora
and trim the visible card range (fewer 3D offscreen passes) on low-power.
- gamepad: log full pad identity (vid:pid:name:type:virtual) on attach to
diagnose an empty controller list on the Deck.
- cli: --connect host:<badport> silently did nothing; default to 9777 + warn.
- css: add the missing .pf-neutral pill rule; fix the clipped most-recent
accent (inset outline instead of a corner-clipped box-shadow bar).
Decky plugin:
- surface the on-screen library browser: label the host-row Games button.
- fix silent pin data-loss — the detached Games modal captured a frozen
pins array, so pinning a second game clobbered the first; mirror pins in
a ref and track the modal's pinned ids locally for a live label.
- route pair-required hosts through the pairing modal from the fullscreen
Stream button (parity with the QAM panel).

A controller-driven, chrome-less library launcher for the Steam Deck flow
(the Decky plugin's "Open library on screen" + pinned games, 3122506):
`--browse host[:port]` opens a paired host's game library as a coverflow
over a drifting aurora — A streams the focused title (the id rides the
Hello), session end returns to the launcher, B quits back to Gaming Mode.
`--connect` gains `--launch <id>` for direct-to-game starts; `--mgmt`
overrides the library port. Scope is deliberately library-only: host
selection/settings stay in the touch UI, pairing stays in the plugin (no
dialog can map under gamescope — every state renders in-page).
- gamepad.rs menu mode: the worker holds the active pad open while idle
(WITHOUT the Valve HIDAPI drivers — Deck lizard mode survives) and
translates it through a pure MenuNav state machine: edge-triggered
buttons, held-state snapshot on entry/detach (the escape chord that ends
a stream can't ghost-fire in the menu), 380/160 ms stick/dpad repeat,
menu rumble ticks. Keyboard fallback (arrows/Enter/Esc) drives the same
handler — fully usable with no pad, no host (PUNKTFUNK_FAKE_LIBRARY).
- Coverflow: ±38° corridor-facing tilt under per-card perspective
(gsk rotate_3d), dense overlapping side shelves with paint-order
restacking (gtk::Fixed draws in child order), opaque card faces + a
darkening veil for the recede (translucency would bleed the stack
through). The strip lives in an External-policy ScrolledWindow because
a bare gtk::Fixed measures its TRANSFORMED children and inflates the
page min-width past the window.
- Spring-driven motion: semi-implicit Euler in ≤8 ms substeps (a raw
50 ms frame leaves the stiff recoil spring ringing at ω·dt ≈ 1.2 —
regression-tested), ζ≈0.85 cursor chase + ζ≈0.55 boundary wobble;
velocity carries across retargets so held-repeat scrolling glides.
- Shot scene `gamepad-library` (GTK animations force-disabled in shot mode
— nav transitions froze mid-slide in headless captures); shared poster
fetch extracted to library::spawn_art_fetch.
Verified here: 21 unit tests (MenuNav, cursor stepping, spring
convergence/stability), clippy -D warnings clean, screenshot scene
pixel-checked, --browse smoke runs (fake-library + unpaired) on the
headless session. On-Deck validation pending (virtual-pad input, lizard
mode, rumble via Steam Input, full Decky→browse→stream→launcher loop).

- library.rs + ui_library.rs: the host's unified game library over the
management API (the Apple LibraryClient/LibraryView ported) — mTLS with the
paired identity, host verified by its pinned cert fingerprint (ureq + rustls,
unified with the workspace rustls 0.23); posters load async with monogram
placeholders, and picking a title starts a session that asks the host to
launch it (the library id rides the Hello).
- app.rs (~800 lines lighter) splits into cli.rs (argv/headless
pairing/--connect/screenshot scenes), launch.rs (mode resolve + session
worker + event stream into the UI) and ui_trust.rs (TOFU / SPAKE2 PIN /
delegated-approval dialogs); ui_hosts/ui_stream reworked around the split.
