enricobuehlerandClaude Fable 5 180ac3aa61 feat(console): full gamepad shell — hosts, PIN pairing, settings, OSK, screen transitions
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).

punktfunk-session

The Vulkan session binary: one stream per invocation in an SDL3 window — no UI toolkit, no widgets, terminal stats. The power-user / gamescope stream client, and the stage-2 presenter of the Linux client re-architecture (punktfunk-planning: linux-client-rearchitecture.md).

punktfunk-session --connect host[:port] [--fp HEX] [--launch id] [--fullscreen] [--stats]
punktfunk-session --browse host[:port] [--mgmt PORT] [--fullscreen]

--browse opens the console game library (the Skia coverflow over the animated aurora) instead of connecting: A launches the focused title as a stream in the same window, session end returns to the library, B quits (Gaming Mode returns). Paired hosts only — pairing is the desktop client / Decky plugin's job. PUNKTFUNK_FAKE_LIBRARY=<file.json> feeds canned entries with no host (portrait paths starting with / load from disk).

Reads the same identity / known-hosts / settings stores as the desktop client (punktfunk-client) — pair there (or via its headless --pair) first; this binary never connects to a host it has no pinned fingerprint for (--fp HEX overrides the store).

Stdout is the machine interface: {"ready":true} after the first presented frame, stats: … once per second (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S toggles, --stats forces on), one {"error"|"ended": …} JSON line on the way out. Logs go to stderr. Exit codes: 0 clean end, 2 connect failed, 3 trust rejected / pairing required, 4 presenter init failed.

In-stream keys match the desktop client: click captures input (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Q releases), Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D disconnects, F11 toggles fullscreen; the controller escape chord (L1+R1+Start+Select, hold to disconnect) works the same.

The default build carries the Skia console UI (ui feature): the stats OSD and capture hint render in-window (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S toggles both the OSD and the stdout mirror). --no-default-features is the ~5 MB power-user build — same streaming, stats on stdout only, no Skia anywhere in the dependency tree.

Decode follows the Settings preference (auto: Vulkan Video → VAAPI → software): FFmpeg's Vulkan Video decoder runs on the presenter's own device where the stack supports it (every vendor, zero copy); VAAPI dmabufs import per-plane elsewhere; software is the universal fallback. 10-bit Main10 and HDR10 are advertised (VIDEO_CAP_10BIT|HDR): P010 decodes through all three paths, and PQ streams present on an HDR10/ST.2084 swapchain when the desktop offers one (KDE HDR, gamescope) or tone-map in-shader to SDR when it doesn't (PUNKTFUNK_TONEMAP_PEAK tunes the rolloff, default ≈1000 nits). The host still gates the upgrade behind its PUNKTFUNK_10BIT policy.

Debug/bisect knobs: PUNKTFUNK_DECODER=vulkan|vaapi|software, PUNKTFUNK_PRESENT_MODE= mailbox|immediate (default FIFO), PUNKTFUNK_VK_DEVICE=<index> (multi-GPU), and PUNKTFUNK_HW_FAULT=import (fault every VAAPI dmabuf import — proves the three-strike demotion to software on healthy hardware).
