Finish the client side of the Steam Controller / Steam Deck pipeline.
- C-ABI (core abi.rs): PunktfunkRichInputEx — a size-prefixed superset of
PunktfunkRichInput that can express the second trackpad (surface), a distinct
click vs touch, signed coords + pressure — plus
punktfunk_connection_send_rich_input2 (the struct_size ABI-skew-guard
precedent). The only way a C client (Apple/embedders) can emit a TouchpadEx;
the legacy struct + send_rich_input stay byte-for-byte. punktfunk_core.h
regenerated.
- Decky (clients/decky): a "Steam Deck" gamepad type in Settings + an unmissable
Disable-Steam-Input instruction shown when it's selected (in Game Mode Steam
Input holds 0x1205, so the SDL HIDAPI Steam driver can't open the Deck's
controls until the user disables Steam Input for the shortcut). Plus a
best-effort, feature-detected disableSteamInputForShortcut() in launchStream —
never blocks/throws; the manual toggle is the documented source of truth.
- Apple parity (PunktfunkConnection.swift): GamepadType.steamController/steamDeck
(wire 5/6) + name parsing, so the resolved type round-trips. Capture is blocked
(GameController never surfaces a 0x28DE HID device).
- Android parity (Gamepad.kt): PREF_STEAMCONTROLLER/STEAMDECK + the Valve 0x28DE
PIDs in prefFor(). Rich-input capture stays out of scope (no rich-input plane
yet) — standard buttons/sticks resolve to the host's Steam Deck pad.
Rust workspace clippy/fmt/test green; Decky src/ typechecks clean (only a
pre-existing @decky/api dep resolution error remains); Swift/Kotlin compile on
their CI. The full pipeline is now BUILT; what remains is validation that needs
hardware we don't have (a running Steam on the host, a live Deck client, the
Moonlight paddle regression). Not pushed.

Plugin self-update (no Decky store): CI publishes a per-channel manifest.json
({version, immutable per-version artifact, sha256}) beside the zip and bakes
update.json {channel, manifest} into the plugin. main.py `check_update` reads the
installed version from package.json (the value Decky reports — not plugin.json),
fetches the channel manifest, and the frontend shows an "Update to vX" button that
drives Decky Loader's own install RPC (root downloads + SHA-256-verifies + hot-reloads).
CI now stamps a plain-numeric semver (0.3.<run> canary / X.Y.Z stable) into
package.json — a -ciN suffix would mis-order under compare-versions.
Linux client: `--fullscreen` (plus SteamDeck/gamescope env fallback) enters GTK
fullscreen on stream start so Gaming-Mode chrome is hidden; native-mode resolution
falls back to the display's first monitor when the window isn't mapped yet (was
dropping to the 1080p floor — wrong on the Deck's 1280×800); add a confirmed
"Remove saved host" action (KnownHosts::remove_by_fp).
Docs: new docs/steam-deck.md (Decky install/pair/stream/self-update/troubleshooting),
wired into meta.json nav, and cross-linked from clients/install-client/channels. This
is the page docs.punktfunk.unom.io/docs/steam-deck — the website's download link
pointed at it before it existed; committing it makes that link resolve.

The plugin was a QAM launcher whose stream never appeared, with no
pairing. Three fixes, plus a headless --pair mode on the GTK client:
- Stream actually starts (MoonDeck's proven mechanism): gamescope only
focuses the process tree Steam launched via reaper, so a flatpak
spawned from the (root) backend is invisible. The frontend now
registers ONE hidden non-Steam shortcut pointing at bin/punktfunkrun.sh,
passes the host as the shortcut's Steam launch options, and starts it
with SteamClient.Apps.RunGame — gamescope then fullscreen-focuses it.
The wrapper execs `flatpak run io.unom.Punktfunk --connect <host>`.
- Fullscreen page: routerHook.addRoute("/punktfunk") — host list,
per-host Pair/Stream, and a settings section (resolution/refresh/
bitrate/gamepad/mic, written to client-gtk-settings.json).
- Pairing: a gamepad-navigable PIN keypad. The host shows the PIN; the
backend runs the SPAKE2 ceremony headlessly via the client's new
`--pair <PIN> --connect host` CLI mode (app.rs), persisting the host
as paired so the stream then connects silently. Same flatpak =>
shared identity store, verified live (ceremony against a real host).
- Backend (main.py): discover / pair / runner_info / get_settings /
set_settings / kill_stream; uses DECKY_USER_HOME so paths resolve to
the deck user's flatpak install regardless of the plugin's root flag.
CI (decky.yml) and the sideload packager now ship bin/punktfunkrun.sh.
The Steam-shortcut launch and headless-pairing env follow MoonDeck
exactly but need a Deck in Gaming Mode to fully confirm.

A Decky Loader plugin so a Steam Deck / SteamOS box can launch the punktfunk
client from Gaming Mode using REAL Steam UI components (it runs inside Steam's
CEF, so the panel is built from @decky/ui — the literal Big Picture primitives,
not a replica).
- Frontend (src/index.tsx, @decky/api + @decky/ui): a Quick Access Menu panel —
Refresh → discover hosts, a native list (name, ip:port, pairing flag), tap to
connect with a status toast, Disconnect.
- Backend (main.py): discover() shells `avahi-browse -rpt _punktfunk._udp` and
parses the host's advertised TXT keys (proto/fp/pair/id from discovery.rs),
dedup by id preferring IPv4; connect() resolves + spawns
`punktfunk-client --connect host:port` (gamescope composites its video like a
game), tracking the child; disconnect() terminates it.
- Mirrors the current official Decky template (the API moved to @decky/ui +
@decky/api). Frontend builds clean (pnpm build → dist/index.js); main.py
py_compiles. dist/ + node_modules gitignored — build on the Deck per README.
Spike scope: launcher only, runtime untested (no Deck here). Next on this track:
the in-stream Quick-Access overlay (volume/disconnect/stats over the running
stream) and a fuller real-components UI. Client decode on the AMD Deck is the
existing VAAPI path; the host-encode VAAPI gap is separate (NVIDIA host = NVENC).
