Subject: [PATCH 01/89] fix(gbfs): rate-limit /api/gbfs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The proxy already restricted WHERE it would go — https, an allowlisted host, a
station_information/station_status path, no redirects, a 12-second deadline and
a 5 MB body cap — but nothing restricted HOW OFTEN, so the dev server would
relay an unbounded stream of requests at a third-party bikeshare operator on
any caller's behalf, one outbound fetch and one timeout timer each.

Admit 120 requests/minute per client address, global backstop 3x, refused with
429 and `Retry-After` before the target is even parsed. The ceiling comes from
the layer's own demand: `src/layers/bikeshare/registry.js` catalogues 15
systems, station information is cached per city after its first fetch, and
station status refreshes once per city every STATUS_POLL_MS (60s) with
in-flight requests deduplicated — about 15 requests a minute with everything
in range, so 120 is eight times a maximal session.

The method, host, path, redirect, deadline and size guards are unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 02/89] feat(flights): publish verticalRateMps on the
 tracked-aircraft descriptor
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`mapAnalystRecord` has always published `verticalRateMps`, but the tracked
seam — `getTrackedInfo()` / `getTrackedSubject()`, built by `_describeFlight`
— did not, so anything needing climb/descent had to reach past the public
descriptor into the raw poll record.

Both layers now map it, which matters because they store it under different
keys: the civil records write `verticalRate` (records.js), the military ones
write `verticalRateMps`. Mapping only one would leave
`resolveTrackedAircraftInfo()` handing back two different shapes, and a
consumer reading the field off a civil contact would silently read every
military contact as level flight.

Reported, never derived. `stickyNumber` seeds the field with null, so an
aircraft that has not transmitted a rate publishes null rather than a
level-flight 0 — absent is not level, and a flight-phase classifier that
cannot tell them apart calls a climbing aircraft cruise.

Tests: both layers, both halves (a reported rate arrives with its sign; an
absent one stays null). Mutation-verified — removing either field or
defaulting it to 0 turns them red.

`docs/CURRENT-STATE.md` records the descriptor field, the two record keys it
reconciles, and the reported-never-derived rule.

Subject: [PATCH 03/89] feat(tooling): one changelog file per pull request
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

`CONTRIBUTING.md` asks every runtime change to add an entry at the top of
`CHANGELOG.md`, so two pull requests in flight write into the same few lines and
git has nothing to merge on. Against `main` at `81eb443`, `git merge-tree` over
the 85 open pull requests GitHub reports as conflicting that aren't mine puts
`CHANGELOG.md` in the conflict set of 41 — more than any other path — and for 6
it is the only one. `docs/CURRENT-STATE.md`, the other file rule 3 names,
conflicts for 23, and merges cleanly for 23 of the 41: edits land in the section
for the area you touched, so they only collide when the areas do.

A pull request now adds `changelog.d/<pull request>-<slug>.md` instead. Distinct
filenames never conflict, and the pull request number makes them distinct for
free. `npm run changelog` splices the directory into `CHANGELOG.md` and empties
it; `npm run changelog:check` reports the batch and changes nothing.

Fragment text is copied through unchanged apart from trailing whitespace.
`src/annotations/drawTool.test.mjs` reads `CHANGELOG.md` as prose and slices a
fixed window after a heading, so an assembler that reflowed an entry could move
text across that window. Fragments are deliberately outside
`scripts/format-scope.json` for the same reason.

The assembler refuses a batch before writing anything when a filename is not
`<pull request>-<slug>.md` or two fragments claim one pull request number, and
a unit test runs that check over the real `changelog.d/`, so a fragment the
release could not assemble fails `npm test` in the pull request that adds it
rather than at release time.

Refs #781.

+One file per entry. A pull request adds a file here instead of editing
+`CHANGELOG.md`, and a release concatenates them into it.
+
+```
+changelog.d/<pull request number>-<slug>.md
+```
+
+`723-atc-decision-layer.md`, for example. The slug is lowercase, words separated
+by `-`. Two pull requests never pick the same filename, because the pull request
+number is already unique — which is the point: new `CHANGELOG.md` entries go at
+the top of the file, so two pull requests in flight write into the same few lines
+and git has nothing to merge on.
+
+Write the file exactly as the entry should read in `CHANGELOG.md`: a `-` bullet,
+wrapped the way the surrounding entries are, crediting yourself and the pull
+request.
+
+```markdown
+- Report which upstream declined a Street Traffic road load. The layer row now
+  reads `Overpass rate-limited` instead of a general "Road data temporarily
+  unavailable" (yourname, #665).
+```
+
+The text is spliced in unchanged apart from trailing whitespace, so what you
+write here is what ships. Fragments are deliberately outside
+`scripts/format-scope.json`, so `npm run format` never reflows one.
+
+At release time:
+
+```
+npm run changelog:check   # list what would move, change nothing
+npm run changelog         # move every fragment into CHANGELOG.md
+```
+
+The assembler refuses a batch rather than guessing: a filename that is not
+`<pull request>-<slug>.md`, or two fragments claiming one pull request number,
+stops the run before anything is written and names the files.
+
+A documentation claim that needs a regression test — the way
+`src/annotations/drawTool.test.mjs` asserts against `CHANGELOG.md` — should
+assert against `docs/CURRENT-STATE.md` or `README.md` instead. A pull request
+still edits those directly, so the text is in the file while the change is under
+review; a fragment does not reach `CHANGELOG.md` until release.

Subject: [PATCH 04/89] docs: add this pull request's own changelog fragment
 (#787)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Dogfoods the convention rather than describing it: the entry for #787 arrives
as `changelog.d/787-changelog-fragments.md` and `CHANGELOG.md` is untouched.

A fragment needs the pull request number, which only exists once the pull
request is open, so it lands in a second commit. `changelog.d/README.md` says
to push first and add the fragment after, for the same reason.

Checked against the one consumer that constrains the design: assembling this
fragment moves the `DISPLAY ▸ Draw` marker in `CHANGELOG.md` by exactly the
length of the spliced entry, and the 1200-character window that
`src/annotations/drawTool.test.mjs` slices after it is byte-identical.

+- Changelog entries are now one file per pull request. A change adds
+  `changelog.d/<pull request>-<slug>.md` instead of editing the top of
+  `CHANGELOG.md`, which two pull requests in flight could not share — it was the
+  most frequent merge conflict in the open queue, and for six of them the only
+  one. `npm run changelog` splices the directory into `CHANGELOG.md` at release
+  time and empties it; `npm run changelog:check` reports the batch and changes
+  nothing. Fragment text is copied through unchanged (daikaginza, #787).

Subject: [PATCH 05/89] feat(i18n): locale core + English catalogs + parity
 gates

Add the i18n foundation: src/i18n/locale.js (locale resolution with a
configurable GEV_DEFAULT_LOCALE / GEV_SECONDARY_LOCALE pair, guarded
preference storage, one-shot ?lang= override, <html lang>/<html dir>
metadata) and src/i18n/index.js (catalog registry, t(), Intl formatters,
applyDocumentTranslations, persistLocaleAndReload).

English is the only shipped locale in this PR: the four en catalogs
(shell/cockpit/layers/setup) are the reference and the always-shipped
fallback, the built-in pair degenerates to en-only, and English output
is byte-identical to the strings these replace.

Parity gates land with the core (catalog key/placeholder/plural-shape
parity, markup coverage of every data-i18n* attribute, repair-pass
anchors pinning en byte-identity); additional locales ship as stacked
follow-up PRs through the recipe in docs/TRANSLATORS.md.

Rebased onto current main: the client defines live in build/vite.js /
server/standalone/vite.config.js as before.

Subject: [PATCH 06/89] =?UTF-8?q?feat(i18n):=20presentation=20extraction?=
 =?UTF-8?q?=20=E2=80=94=20t()=20call=20sites,=20data-i18n=20templates,=20l?=
 =?UTF-8?q?ocale=20selector?=
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Route every application-owned presentation string through the i18n
core: t() call sites across the app/layers/ui/data/voice surfaces,
data-i18n* attributes in the src/ui/templates/*.html markup (applied at
boot by applyDocumentTranslations from src/standalone/application.js),
and the dock locale selector (runtime-rendered from the offered pair —
a single EN button while only English ships).

Rebased onto current main, where the extraction follows the module
splits: the shell wiring now lands in the owner modules
(panelChrome, visualSettings, locationNavigation, shareRestoration,
shellFeedback, applicationShell) and the voice status corpus in the
realtime* modules; scene status lives in director.js +
playbackAdapter.js.

Modules shared with the node runtime (loadingFeedback,
installationFeedback, regionalModel, keySetupCore, vessels ingestion)
stay environment-neutral English and localize at their browser render
sites (chip maps in shellFeedback/installations controls, the weather
table in cockpitBriefing, keySetupRequirementEnvVars compositions), so
the package-boundary graph stays clean; the browser boundary groups
now own the i18n modules they reach (scripts/package-boundaries.json).

 foundation, current-state and changelog
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

docs/TRANSLATORS.md is rewritten for the foundation state: English
shipped, and the locale-addition recipe front and center — the
one-PR-per-locale procedure (catalogs, registration, CATALOG_LOCALES,
pair behavior, parity gates). CURRENT-STATE.md documents the subsystem
(file map, resolution order, selector, gates, deferrals) and the
CHANGELOG records the foundation.

+### Internationalization / catalog locales (September 2026)
+
+The application-owned UI is fully extracted into message catalogs; **en**
+is the only shipped locale in this foundation state — additional locales
+land as stacked follow-up PRs, one per locale (Spanish first), each
+following the locale-addition recipe in
+[`docs/TRANSLATORS.md`](./TRANSLATORS.md). English is the default, the
+source catalog, and the fallback. The subsystem lives in `src/i18n/`:
+
+- **File map.** `src/i18n/locale.js` owns locale resolution, guarded storage
+  (`gev:locale:v1`), the one-shot `?lang=` override, and `<html lang>`/`<html
+  dir>` metadata. `src/i18n/index.js` owns the catalog registry, `t()`
+  (interpolation + `Intl.PluralRules` plural selection), `formatNumber` /
+  `formatDate`, `applyDocumentTranslations()`, and
+  `persistLocaleAndReload()`. The shipped catalog is four flat message maps
+  — `src/i18n/locales/en/{shell,cockpit,layers,setup}.js`, 912 keys (shell
+  34, cockpit 369, layers 388, setup 121). Plural entries are the en
+  `{ one, other }` shape; a future locale may add only cardinal categories
+  `Intl.PluralRules` reports valid for it, and an entry lacking the selected
+  category degrades to `other` at runtime. Locale-code normalization
+  (`es-MX`/`es_419` → `es`, plus fr/ru/uk and variants) ships ahead of the
+  locales on purpose: knowing a code is hygiene, shipping is catalog-driven
+  through `CATALOG_LOCALES`.
+- **Selector.** The command dock carries a compact locale switch: a static
+  `.dock-locale-switch` group container in `index.html` whose buttons
+  (`.dock-locale-btn`) are rendered at runtime by `src/ui/applicationShell.js`
+  `_initLocaleSelector()` — one per locale in the configured pair; while
+  only English ships that is a single EN button. A click persists the
+  choice and reloads the page with the hash preserved, so no live re-apply
+  of already-rendered dynamic panels is needed.
+- **Locale pair config.** `GEV_DEFAULT_LOCALE` and `GEV_SECONDARY_LOCALE` in
+  `.env`, injected as `import.meta.env` defines by `vite.config.js`; both
+  values are validated against the shipped catalogs (`CATALOG_LOCALES`),
+  and the offered set is `dedup([default, secondary, 'en'])`. While English
+  is the only shipped catalog the built-in pair is en-only, so every
+  configuration degenerates to a single offered locale; an invalid,
+  unshipped, or degenerate configured pair falls back to that built-in
+  en-only shape (dev-only warn). The first secondary-locale PR restores the
+  built-in en+es pair.
+- **Resolution order.** `?lang=<locale>` (search string only; never
+  persisted, never written into share links; stripped by
+  `persistLocaleAndReload`; accepted only for offered locales) → stored
+  `gev:locale:v1` (re-checked against the pair) →
+  `navigator.languages` (regional variants normalize to the primary tag:
+  `es-MX`/`es_419` → `es`) → the CONFIGURED default locale. Unsupported
+  values defer to the next
+  step rather than forcing English.
+- **Gates** (all under `node --test src/i18n/`, 40 tests):
+  `catalog.test.mjs` enforces per-locale key, placeholder-name, and
+  plural-shape parity with the strict exact-parity flip ON
+  (`REQUIRE_FULL_PARITY`; `GEV_I18N_REQUIRE_FULL_LOCALE_PARITY=0` opts out
+  for staged work; the loops are vacuous while only en ships — each locale
+  PR meets them from day one);
+  `markupCoverage.test.mjs` requires every `data-i18n*` attribute in
+  `index.html` to resolve in every shipped catalog and rejects unknown attribute
+  spellings; `i18n.test.mjs` pins precedence, guards, fallback,
+  interpolation, the plural-selection contract (synthetic missing-category
+  degradation; real-catalog plural pins arrive with each locale PR), and
+  DOM application; `repairPass.test.mjs` anchors en byte-identity for
+  extracted literals and rejects a locale-scoped CCTV wrap rule shipping
+  ahead of its locale (per-locale value anchors arrive with each locale
+  PR).
+- **Accepted deferrals (do not "fix" silently):**
+  - The military-awareness subject header literal `FLIGHT / VESSEL WINDOW`
+    (`src/data/militaryAwareness.js`) stays English; the literal is
+    test-pinned in `src/data/militaryAwareness.test.mjs`.
+  - The visible cockpit-brief tab tokens `SIG` / `NEWS` / `LOCAL`
+    (`index.html`) stay untranslated to match the runtime keys; their
+    `aria-label`s ARE localized (`cockpit.brief.tab*AriaLabel`).
+  - `src/voice/gevActions.js` tool-result confirmation strings stay English
+    by contract (voice tool schemas and spoken confirmations are
+    keep-English; see the Keep-English boundary in `docs/TRANSLATORS.md`).
+  - Number formatting is still the pre-i18n `toLocaleString` policy at:
+    `src/ui.js:1442`, `src/data/satellites.js:829`,
+    `src/data/flights.js:436` (`'en-US'` pinned), and
+    `src/data/rocketLaunches.js:2281/2299/2364/2371/2374`
+    (default-locale). A locale-aware number-format policy is deferred; the
+    `formatNumber` helper exists in `src/i18n/index.js` when that lands.
+
+### Overpass proxy mirror rotation (September 2026)
+
+- `/api/overpass` fans out across four public mirrors. `overpassPayloadIsData()` governs cache reads, writes, and stale fallback: only a 2xx that is neither rate-limited nor a body-level runtime error qualifies. Previously stored refusals are ignored on both fresh and stale reads, so upgrading does not require manually clearing the disk cache.
+- HTTP refusals such as 406 now rotate alongside the existing network, rate-limit, and runtime-error cases. A refusal from one mirror no longer prevents reaching healthy alternatives or persists under the seven-day road/month-long boundary cache TTLs. Concurrent identical queries share one mirror sequence; if it fails, both the initiating and joined callers can use the same last-good data.
+- A refusal every mirror agrees on is still reported with the first mirror's status and body, so a genuinely malformed query says what upstream said — but only after every mirror has had the chance to answer it. `fetchOverpassPayload` takes injectable endpoints and fetch so the rotation is tested without a live mirror (`src/overpassProxy.test.mjs`).
+
+### Share-link v2 layer state (August 2026)
+
+- Generated share links use a deterministic v2 hash. Existing camera, visual,
+  HUD, detection, post-processing, celestial, scope, and map-stack fields remain,
+  with compact fields for enabled layers, allowlisted layer options, panel state,
+  and the active preset's allowlisted shader controls. An absent layer field uses
+  deterministic defaults; an explicit empty field means no enabled layers.
+- The registry seals only after all 16 production layers register, and every
+  layer has an explicit serialization disposition. Unknown enabled-layer tokens
+  reject the layer payload; unknown option tokens are ignored. Restoration
+  settles independently per layer so one failed or unavailable source cannot
+  block its siblings.
+- Stable visible options are limited to aircraft 3D mode, selected civilian and
+  military flight IDs, Satellite catalog and selection, CCTV coverage/projection/
+  auto-hop, and Radio filter/volume. Playback and tuning, live-data health,
+  calibration, caches, lifecycle state, temporary Context ownership, and derived
+  effects are deliberately excluded. Radio restore never selects or plays a

+# Translator's guide (i18n foundation — English shipped)
+
+This is the working guide for translating God's Eye View. The i18n
+foundation ships **English only**: the locale core, the English
+catalogs, and the parity gates are in, and every additional locale lands
+as its own stacked PR, one locale at a time, following the
+[locale-addition recipe](#the-locale-addition-recipe) below. That recipe
+is the deliberate design artifact of this phase — a locale is not
+"translated into the app", it is *shipped* through the same gate every
+time.
+
+## Which locale ships, and which pair is offered
+
+One catalog ships: **en** (source of truth and unconditional fallback).
+Shipping is catalog-driven (`CATALOG_LOCALES` in `src/i18n/locale.js`):
+while only English ships, the built-in locale pair is en-only and the
+dock language switch renders a single EN button. Which pair the app
+*offers* is configuration, not code: `GEV_DEFAULT_LOCALE` and
+`GEV_SECONDARY_LOCALE` in `.env`, injected into the browser via vite
+defines. Both values are validated against the shipped catalogs — an
+invalid, unshipped, or degenerate pair (e.g. the same locale twice)
+degenerates to the built-in en-only shape with a dev-server-only
+`console.warn`. English is always resolvable — it is the fallback
+catalog — even when not part of the configured pair.
+
+## How the catalog system works
+
+All application-owned UI text lives in four flat message catalogs (en
+today; one directory per locale once shipped):
+
+```text
+src/i18n/
+  locale.js                  pair config + resolution + storage + <html lang>/<html dir>
+  index.js                   catalog registry, t(), Intl formatters, DOM apply
+  locales/en/{shell,cockpit,layers,setup}.js
+```
+
+| Namespace | Surface |
+| --- | --- |
+| `shell.*` | Document chrome: title, dock actions, panels, global status chip, sync chips, toasts, locale selector |
+| `cockpit.*` | Cockpit HUD readouts, Context panel, CCTV scene summary, Display/panel chrome, visual presets, Radio utility |
+| `layers.*` | Data-layer presentation: layer names, feed-state labels, row meta, vessel/flight/satellite/mission/CCTV/Radio/awareness cards and readouts |
+| `setup.*` | First-run launcher, key setup (POWER UP), scenes/director status, map-stack chips |
+
+Each catalog file exports `NAMESPACE` and a default map of
+namespace-relative keys; `mergeNamespace()` prefixes them (`cockpit.…`)
+and `buildCatalog()` rejects duplicates. English is the default and the
+fallback locale: a key missing in another locale renders its English
+value (dev-server-only `console.warn`). The en catalogs hold 912 keys
+(shell 34, cockpit 369, layers 388, setup 121).
+
+## Key naming
+
+- Markup surfaces: `<namespace>.<surface>.<element>` — e.g.
+  `shell.panels.dataLayers`, `cockpit.readout.altitude`.
+- Runtime flows/states: `<namespace>.<flow>.<state>` — e.g.
+  `shell.status.loadingLiveData`, `layers.missions.telemetry.km`.
+- Names are semantic and stable. Never rename, reorder, or renumber an
+  existing key: `data-i18n` attributes and runtime `t()` call sites in other
+  files reference them.
+
+## The locale-addition recipe
+
+Every locale PR follows the same steps, in this order. Nothing here is
+optional — the gates below fail the build if a step is skipped.
+
+1. **Catalogs.** Copy `src/i18n/locales/en/` to
+   `src/i18n/locales/<code>/` and translate all four files
+   (`<code>` is the primary language tag: `es`, not `es-419`). Keep the
+   en key order, keep key names byte-identical, and translate VALUES
+   only. A locale may never carry a key en lacks.
+2. **Registration.** In `src/i18n/index.js`: add the four import lines
+   and one `<CODE>_NAMESPACES` array, then one entry in the `CATALOGS`
+   map. Registration is append-only; nothing else in the file changes.
+3. **Shipping.** Append `'<code>'` to `CATALOG_LOCALES` in
+   `src/i18n/locale.js`. This single constant is what makes the locale
+   normalizable-to-shipped: pair config, `?lang=`, storage, and the
+   selector all read from it. Regional variants (`es-MX`, `es_419`)
+   already normalize — locale-code hygiene is shipped ahead of the
+   locales on purpose.
+4. **Selector labels.** Append
+   `'locale.<code>.ariaLabel': 'Switch to <Language>'` to the `shell`
+   catalog of EVERY shipped locale (en included — the en catalog names
+   the new button; the new catalog names the English one).
+   `markupCoverage.test.mjs` requires a label for every shipped code in
+   every catalog, so this cannot be forgotten.
+5. **Plurals.** Plural entries are variant objects carrying a `{count}`
+   placeholder, selected per active locale through `Intl.PluralRules`.
+   English entries use `{ one, other }`. Your locale must keep every en
+   variant and may add ONLY categories `Intl.PluralRules` reports valid
+   for it (e.g. a Slavic locale adds `few`/`many`) —
+   `catalog.test.mjs` enforces this shape against the live ICU data.
+   Pin your locale's real-catalog plural agreement in
+   `src/i18n/i18n.test.mjs` (one/few/many/other counts where relevant).
+6. **Layout.** Prefer concise glossary-approved copy over CSS surgery;
+   fixed-width `nowrap` panels must be checked at narrow viewports. A
+   locale-scoped wrap rule (`html[lang='<code>'] .cctv-controls {
+   flex-wrap: wrap; }` in `src/ui/styles/cctv.css`) is added ONLY when
+   the locale demonstrably clips, with a comment recording the measured
+   widths — the English layout stays pixel-identical, and
+   `repairPass.test.mjs` rejects a wrap rule shipping ahead of its
+   locale.
+7. **Gates.** `node --test src/i18n/` must be green with the strict
+   parity gate ON: exact key-set equality with en, identical
+   placeholder names, plural-shape superset. While a new catalog is a
+   staged untranslated seed, CI may run with
+   `GEV_I18N_REQUIRE_FULL_LOCALE_PARITY=0` (subset mode) — record every
+   such flip here, and record the flip back.
+8. **Docs.** Add the locale's section + glossary to this file, note it
+   in `docs/CURRENT-STATE.md` (Internationalization) and `CHANGELOG.md`,
+   and update the shipped-locales wording in `.env.example`.
+
+## Append-only rules
+
+- New keys are appended to the END of the namespace file in EVERY
+  shipped locale directory in the same change. Never edit another
+  namespace's files, and never touch the registration arrays in
+  `src/i18n/index.js` without re-reading this guide first.
+- A fifth namespace is a last resort (prefer fitting one of the four); its
+  registration recipe is the same append-only pattern as a locale (step 2
+  of the recipe above), applied to every shipped locale at once.
+- Parity is enforced by tests, not goodwill: no locale may carry a key en
+  lacks, and every shared key must keep identical placeholder names
+  and a plural-variant set that includes every en variant plus only
+  categories `Intl.PluralRules` reports for that locale
+  (`src/i18n/catalog.test.mjs`).
+
+## Placeholder, plural, and typography rules
+
+- Interpolation uses named `{camelCase}` placeholders:
+  `'Flying to {place}…'`. The **same placeholder names must exist in
+  every locale** — the parity gate fails on a renamed `{name}` because
+  it would break interpolation at runtime.
+- Locale-aware numbers, dates, and relative times go through the
+  `formatNumber` / `formatDate` / `formatRelativeTime` helpers in
+  `src/i18n/index.js` — do not hand-format in a catalog call site.
+- Style: the English catalog is ALL-CAPS for tactical labels, readouts,
+  and status text; translations follow the same convention in their
+  script's norms. The `·` separator used between metadata segments is
+  part of the surface style and is reproduced in translations.
+- Instrument codes stay identical across languages; units (KTS, FT, km,
+  km²) are never translated.
+- Romance languages run ~25% longer than English and Slavic languages
+  compound that on multi-word tactical labels — plan string budgets and
+  check fixed-width panels before review (see step 6 above).
+
+## Keep-English boundary (summary)
+
+Never catalog these — they are contracts, not copy:
+
+- Internal layer IDs and registry keys (`military-installations`,
+  `ais-live-vessels`, stack ids).
+- Status enums and machine values (`FEED_STATE_LABELS` keys, lifecycle
+  states, detection/context modes) — translate only the final label at
+  the presentation boundary.
+- URL/hash contracts: share-link parameters, `?welcome=`, `?lang=`,
+  storage schemas.
+- API fields, voice tool names/schemas, `/api/setup/*` payloads.
+- Provider/dataset/product names, callsigns, vessel/satellite/place
+  names from data, news headlines, license/source attributions.
+- Console diagnostics, QA pin scripts, and existing exact-English test
+  expectations.
+- User-authored content (annotations, labels drawn from live data).
+
+Adjudicated exceptions live in "Internationalization" in
+[`docs/CURRENT-STATE.md`](./CURRENT-STATE.md) (accepted deferrals — do not
+"fix" them silently).
+
+## Glossary
+
+Approved recurring terms per locale. Each locale PR appends its
+ glossary here (English term · translation · catalog evidence) so later
+ translators reuse approved copy verbatim. None yet — the first entry
+ arrives with the first translated locale.
+
+## Running the i18n test gates
+
+```sh
+node --test src/i18n/            # 40 tests: core + pair config, catalog parity, markup coverage, repair-pass anchors
+npm test                         # full suite (see below for the known environmental caveat)
+```
+
+- `src/i18n/i18n.test.mjs` — resolution precedence, guarded storage,
+  fallback, interpolation, plural selection (contract + synthetic
+  missing-category degradation; real-catalog plural pins arrive with
+  each locale PR), DOM application.
+- `src/i18n/catalog.test.mjs` — key + placeholder + plural-shape parity for
+  every shipped locale against en, strict `REQUIRE_FULL_PARITY` gate
+  (vacuous while only en ships; each locale PR meets it from day one).
+- `src/i18n/markupCoverage.test.mjs` — every `data-i18n*` attribute in
+  `index.html` must resolve in every shipped catalog; unknown attribute
+  spellings fail loudly.
+- `src/i18n/repairPass.test.mjs` — byte-identity anchors for English
+  literals; per-locale value anchors arrive with each locale PR.
+
+Full-suite caveat: `src/devFreshDotenv.test.mjs`'s external-keys provenance
+test fails when a provider key (e.g. `OPENAI_API_KEY`) is exported in the
+running shell — an environmental false positive unrelated to i18n.

Subject: [PATCH 08/89] fix(traffic): refuse cross-site requests before they
 spend the TomTom budget

/api/tomtom/flow was the only keyed, billed proxy left outside the cross-site gate added in #900. Every uncached tile is an upstream attempt counted against the persistent daily budget, so any web page the user visits could fire <img> requests at distinct z8-z16 tiles, spend the TomTom quota and leave the traffic layer on 429 budget for the rest of the UTC day. Gate both routes with admitSameSite, like the Places routes.

None of them returns the access token. The login route runs `codex login` (or the executable named by `CODEX_BIN`) with an allowlisted environment that leaves out GEV's provider keys, keeps one attempt pending at a time and cancels it after two minutes or when the server stops. **Limits:** any program on this machine that can reach the server can mint Realtime sessions on the signed-in ChatGPT account, as it can with the API key; a local reverse proxy that hides the client's address defeats the loopback check; and OpenAI has not documented this use of Codex credentials for Realtime, so it may stop working or fall outside the account's terms.

Subject: [PATCH 14/89] refactor(i18n): key messages by English text; add
 Russian

Replace the semantic keys with the English source text, so code reads as the
UI does and English needs no catalog: t('Save keys'), tn(count, one, other)
for plurals, msg() for text stored in data, and bare data-i18n* markup that
translates the element's own English. Other languages are one flat JSON each.

- Simplify src/i18n: drop namespaces, the configurable locale pair
  (GEV_DEFAULT_LOCALE / GEV_SECONDARY_LOCALE) and its build defines. Locale
  comes from ?lang=, the stored choice, then browser languages.
- Add scripts/i18n.mjs (npm run i18n): extracts every message from t/tn/msg
  and markup, and fails on missing, unused, placeholder-mismatched or
  wrongly-shaped plural entries. npm test runs it via catalog.test.mjs.
- Add Russian (src/i18n/locales/ru.json, 833 messages), started from the
  community catalog in #312 and reviewed against the current English.
- Fix data-i18n placed on parents that would wipe their children (cockpit
  LEVEL and local weather cells, first-run EXPLORE MANUALLY tile), and a
  doubled degree sign in the TRACK ACQUIRED signal.
- Rewrite docs/TRANSLATORS.md for the new workflow; drop sections the earlier
  merge resurrected in docs/CURRENT-STATE.md.

 # Changelog
 
+- Interface localization, starting with Russian. UI text is marked with
+  `t()`, `tn()` (plurals) and `msg()` in code and `data-i18n*` in markup, keyed
+  by the English text itself; each language is one flat JSON catalog
+  (`src/i18n/locales/ru.json`). The language comes from `?lang=`, the EN/RU
+  switch in the Visual Presets dock, then the browser language; English stays
+  the default and the fallback. `npm run i18n`, also run by `npm test`, fails on
+  missing, unused or broken translations. Built on the i18n foundation by
+  @meirm (#601), with the Russian catalog started from #312.

-### Internationalization / catalog locales (September 2026)
+### Interface localization (October 2026)
 
-The application-owned UI is fully extracted into message catalogs; **en**
-is the only shipped locale in this foundation state — additional locales
-land as stacked follow-up PRs, one per locale (Spanish first), each
-following the locale-addition recipe in
-[`docs/TRANSLATORS.md`](./TRANSLATORS.md). English is the default, the
-source catalog, and the fallback. The subsystem lives in `src/i18n/`:
+Shipped locales: **en** (source and fallback) and **ru**. The code lives in
+`src/i18n/`; the contributor workflow is in [`docs/TRANSLATORS.md`](./TRANSLATORS.md).
 
-- **File map.** `src/i18n/locale.js` owns locale resolution, guarded storage
-  (`gev:locale:v1`), the one-shot `?lang=` override, and `<html lang>`/`<html
-  dir>` metadata. `src/i18n/index.js` owns the catalog registry, `t()`
-  (interpolation + `Intl.PluralRules` plural selection), `formatNumber` /
-  `formatDate`, `applyDocumentTranslations()`, and
-  `persistLocaleAndReload()`. The shipped catalog is four flat message maps
-  — `src/i18n/locales/en/{shell,cockpit,layers,setup}.js`, 912 keys (shell
-  34, cockpit 369, layers 388, setup 121). Plural entries are the en
-  `{ one, other }` shape; a future locale may add only cardinal categories
-  `Intl.PluralRules` reports valid for it, and an entry lacking the selected
-  category degrades to `other` at runtime. Locale-code normalization
-  (`es-MX`/`es_419` → `es`, plus fr/ru/uk and variants) ships ahead of the
-  locales on purpose: knowing a code is hygiene, shipping is catalog-driven
-  through `CATALOG_LOCALES`.
-- **Selector.** The command dock carries a compact locale switch: a static
-  `.dock-locale-switch` group container in `index.html` whose buttons
-  (`.dock-locale-btn`) are rendered at runtime by `src/ui/applicationShell.js`
-  `_initLocaleSelector()` — one per locale in the configured pair; while
-  only English ships that is a single EN button. A click persists the
-  choice and reloads the page with the hash preserved, so no live re-apply
-  of already-rendered dynamic panels is needed.
-- **Locale pair config.** `GEV_DEFAULT_LOCALE` and `GEV_SECONDARY_LOCALE` in
-  `.env`, injected as `import.meta.env` defines by `vite.config.js`; both
-  values are validated against the shipped catalogs (`CATALOG_LOCALES`),
-  and the offered set is `dedup([default, secondary, 'en'])`. While English
-  is the only shipped catalog the built-in pair is en-only, so every
-  configuration degenerates to a single offered locale; an invalid,
-  unshipped, or degenerate configured pair falls back to that built-in
-  en-only shape (dev-only warn). The first secondary-locale PR restores the
-  built-in en+es pair.
-- **Resolution order.** `?lang=<locale>` (search string only; never
-  persisted, never written into share links; stripped by
-  `persistLocaleAndReload`; accepted only for offered locales) → stored
-  `gev:locale:v1` (re-checked against the pair) →
-  `navigator.languages` (regional variants normalize to the primary tag:
-  `es-MX`/`es_419` → `es`) → the CONFIGURED default locale. Unsupported
-  values defer to the next
-  step rather than forcing English.
-- **Gates** (all under `node --test src/i18n/`, 40 tests):
-  `catalog.test.mjs` enforces per-locale key, placeholder-name, and
-  plural-shape parity with the strict exact-parity flip ON
-  (`REQUIRE_FULL_PARITY`; `GEV_I18N_REQUIRE_FULL_LOCALE_PARITY=0` opts out
-  for staged work; the loops are vacuous while only en ships — each locale
-  PR meets them from day one);
-  `markupCoverage.test.mjs` requires every `data-i18n*` attribute in
-  `index.html` to resolve in every shipped catalog and rejects unknown attribute
-  spellings; `i18n.test.mjs` pins precedence, guards, fallback,
-  interpolation, the plural-selection contract (synthetic missing-category
-  degradation; real-catalog plural pins arrive with each locale PR), and
-  DOM application; `repairPass.test.mjs` anchors en byte-identity for
-  extracted literals and rejects a locale-scoped CCTV wrap rule shipping
-  ahead of its locale (per-locale value anchors arrive with each locale
-  PR).
-- **Accepted deferrals (do not "fix" silently):**
-  - The military-awareness subject header literal `FLIGHT / VESSEL WINDOW`
-    (`src/data/militaryAwareness.js`) stays English; the literal is
-    test-pinned in `src/data/militaryAwareness.test.mjs`.
-  - The visible cockpit-brief tab tokens `SIG` / `NEWS` / `LOCAL`
-    (`index.html`) stay untranslated to match the runtime keys; their
-    `aria-label`s ARE localized (`cockpit.brief.tab*AriaLabel`).
-  - `src/voice/gevActions.js` tool-result confirmation strings stay English
-    by contract (voice tool schemas and spoken confirmations are
-    keep-English; see the Keep-English boundary in `docs/TRANSLATORS.md`).
-  - Number formatting is still the pre-i18n `toLocaleString` policy at:
-    `src/ui.js:1442`, `src/data/satellites.js:829`,
-    `src/data/flights.js:436` (`'en-US'` pinned), and
-    `src/data/rocketLaunches.js:2281/2299/2364/2371/2374`
-    (default-locale). A locale-aware number-format policy is deferred; the
-    `formatNumber` helper exists in `src/i18n/index.js` when that lands.
-
-### Overpass proxy mirror rotation (September 2026)
-
-- `/api/overpass` fans out across four public mirrors. `overpassPayloadIsData()` governs cache reads, writes, and stale fallback: only a 2xx that is neither rate-limited nor a body-level runtime error qualifies. Previously stored refusals are ignored on both fresh and stale reads, so upgrading does not require manually clearing the disk cache.
-- HTTP refusals such as 406 now rotate alongside the existing network, rate-limit, and runtime-error cases. A refusal from one mirror no longer prevents reaching healthy alternatives or persists under the seven-day road/month-long boundary cache TTLs. Concurrent identical queries share one mirror sequence; if it fails, both the initiating and joined callers can use the same last-good data.
-- A refusal every mirror agrees on is still reported with the first mirror's status and body, so a genuinely malformed query says what upstream said — but only after every mirror has had the chance to answer it. `fetchOverpassPayload` takes injectable endpoints and fetch so the rotation is tested without a live mirror (`src/overpassProxy.test.mjs`).
-
-### Share-link v2 layer state (August 2026)
-
-- Generated share links use a deterministic v2 hash. Existing camera, visual,
-  HUD, detection, post-processing, celestial, scope, and map-stack fields remain,
-  with compact fields for enabled layers, allowlisted layer options, panel state,
-  and the active preset's allowlisted shader controls. An absent layer field uses
-  deterministic defaults; an explicit empty field means no enabled layers.
-- The registry seals only after all 16 production layers register, and every
-  layer has an explicit serialization disposition. Unknown enabled-layer tokens
-  reject the layer payload; unknown option tokens are ignored. Restoration
-  settles independently per layer so one failed or unavailable source cannot
-  block its siblings.
-- Stable visible options are limited to aircraft 3D mode, selected civilian and
-  military flight IDs, Satellite catalog and selection, CCTV coverage/projection/
-  auto-hop, and Radio filter/volume. Playback and tuning, live-data health,
-  calibration, caches, lifecycle state, temporary Context ownership, and derived
-  effects are deliberately excluded. Radio restore never selects or plays a
-  station.
-- Normal loads restore the last successful explicit UI, voice, or tool choice
-  from versioned local storage. Any valid camera share wins for the current load
-  without overwriting recipient preferences. Restore ownership is split by
-  visibility, option/selection, camera, visual, map, and individual panel lane:
-  a newer explicit action supersedes only the field it owns. In particular,
-  navigation cannot turn unrelated layers off, and an option change cannot
-
-#### Keep-English adjudications (post-merge catch-ups)
-
-- `src/ui/visualPresets.js` `'ELASTIC'` — detection-allocation STRATEGY IDENTIFIER (persisted
-  under `gev:detection-allocation`, compared via `dataset.allocation ===`), not display copy.
-- `src/ui/layerPanel.js` guidance meta — the `{source} · {statusMessage}` composition uses a
-  locale-neutral interpunct; the statusMessage itself IS localized via `installationFeedback`.
-- `src/ui/mapSourceControls.js` `'...'` switching label and the orbit `'↻'` glyph —
-  punctuation/glyphs, identical across locales.
+- **Keys are the English text.** `t('Save keys')`, `tn(count, '{count} camera',
+  '{count} cameras')`, and `msg('Live Flights')` for text stored in data and
+  translated later. Markup opts in with `data-i18n` (element text) and
+  `data-i18n-title` / `-aria-label` / `-placeholder` (that attribute's English
+  value). English has no catalog; every other locale is
+  `src/i18n/locales/<code>.json`, and a missing entry falls back to English.
+- **Locale choice.** `?lang=` (one-shot) → stored choice (`gev:locale:v1`) →
+  `navigator.languages` → English. The EN/RU switch in the Visual Presets dock
+  stores the choice and reloads, so nothing re-renders live.
+- **Gate.** `npm run i18n` (and `src/i18n/catalog.test.mjs` under `npm test`)
+  extracts every message and fails on missing, unused, placeholder-mismatched or
+  wrongly-shaped plural entries.
+- **Not translated by design:** layer ids, share-link and hash parameters, API
+  fields, voice tool schemas, provider names, feed data (callsigns, vessel and
+  station names) and attribution.
+- **Gaps.** Strings added after #601's extraction (for example the Street Level
+  panel) are still raw English; there is no lint for unmarked UI text yet.

-# Translator's guide (i18n foundation — English shipped)
+# Translating God's Eye View
 
-This is the working guide for translating God's Eye View. The i18n
-foundation ships **English only**: the locale core, the English
-catalogs, and the parity gates are in, and every additional locale lands
-as its own stacked PR, one locale at a time, following the
-[locale-addition recipe](#the-locale-addition-recipe) below. That recipe
-is the deliberate design artifact of this phase — a locale is not
-"translated into the app", it is *shipped* through the same gate every
-time.
+Shipped languages: **English** (source and fallback) and **Russian** (`ru`).
 
-## Which locale ships, and which pair is offered
+## How it works
 
-One catalog ships: **en** (source of truth and unconditional fallback).
-Shipping is catalog-driven (`CATALOG_LOCALES` in `src/i18n/locale.js`):
-while only English ships, the built-in locale pair is en-only and the
-dock language switch renders a single EN button. Which pair the app
-*offers* is configuration, not code: `GEV_DEFAULT_LOCALE` and
-`GEV_SECONDARY_LOCALE` in `.env`, injected into the browser via vite
-defines. Both values are validated against the shipped catalogs — an
-invalid, unshipped, or degenerate pair (e.g. the same locale twice)
-degenerates to the built-in en-only shape with a dev-server-only
-`console.warn`. English is always resolvable — it is the fallback
-catalog — even when not part of the configured pair.
+The English text is the key. There is no English catalog: the code is the source.
 
-## How the catalog system works
-
-All application-owned UI text lives in four flat message catalogs (en
-today; one directory per locale once shipped):
-
-```text
-src/i18n/
-  locale.js                  pair config + resolution + storage + <html lang>/<html dir>
-  index.js                   catalog registry, t(), Intl formatters, DOM apply
-  locales/en/{shell,cockpit,layers,setup}.js
+```js
+t('Save keys'); // plain text
+t('Saved to {store}', { store }); // named placeholders
+tn(count, '{count} camera', '{count} cameras'); // count-dependent text
+msg('Live Flights'); // text kept in data, translated later by t()
 ```
 
-| Namespace | Surface |
-| --- | --- |
-| `shell.*` | Document chrome: title, dock actions, panels, global status chip, sync chips, toasts, locale selector |
-| `cockpit.*` | Cockpit HUD readouts, Context panel, CCTV scene summary, Display/panel chrome, visual presets, Radio utility |
-| `layers.*` | Data-layer presentation: layer names, feed-state labels, row meta, vessel/flight/satellite/mission/CCTV/Radio/awareness cards and readouts |
-| `setup.*` | First-run launcher, key setup (POWER UP), scenes/director status, map-stack chips |
+```html
+<span data-i18n>Normal</span>
+<button title="Pin visual presets" data-i18n-title>…</button>
+```
 
-Each catalog file exports `NAMESPACE` and a default map of
-namespace-relative keys; `mergeNamespace()` prefixes them (`cockpit.…`)
-and `buildCatalog()` rejects duplicates. English is the default and the
-fallback locale: a key missing in another locale renders its English
-value (dev-server-only `console.warn`). The en catalogs hold 912 keys
-(shell 34, cockpit 369, layers 388, setup 121).
+`data-i18n` translates the element's own text (put it on the element that holds the text, not on a parent with children). `data-i18n-title`, `data-i18n-aria-label` and `data-i18n-placeholder` translate that attribute's English value.
 
-## Key naming
+Every other language is one flat JSON file, `src/i18n/locales/<code>.json`, keyed by the English text:
 
-- Markup surfaces: `<namespace>.<surface>.<element>` — e.g.
-  `shell.panels.dataLayers`, `cockpit.readout.altitude`.
-- Runtime flows/states: `<namespace>.<flow>.<state>` — e.g.
-  `shell.status.loadingLiveData`, `layers.missions.telemetry.km`.
-- Names are semantic and stable. Never rename, reorder, or renumber an
-  existing key: `data-i18n` attributes and runtime `t()` call sites in other
-  files reference them.
+```json
+{
+  "Save keys": "Сохранить ключи",
+  "{count} cameras": {
+    "one": "{count} камера",
+    "few": "{count} камеры",
+    "many": "{count} камер",
+    "other": "{count} камеры"
+  }
+}
+```
 
-## The locale-addition recipe
+A `tn()` entry is keyed by the English plural form and holds one string per `Intl.PluralRules` category of that language. A missing entry falls back to English.
 
-Every locale PR follows the same steps, in this order. Nothing here is
-optional — the gates below fail the build if a step is skipped.
+The page picks its language from `?lang=`, then the choice stored by the EN/RU switch in the Visual Presets dock, then the browser languages, then English. Switching reloads the page.
 
-1. **Catalogs.** Copy `src/i18n/locales/en/` to
-   `src/i18n/locales/<code>/` and translate all four files
-   (`<code>` is the primary language tag: `es`, not `es-419`). Keep the
-   en key order, keep key names byte-identical, and translate VALUES
-   only. A locale may never carry a key en lacks.
-2. **Registration.** In `src/i18n/index.js`: add the four import lines
-   and one `<CODE>_NAMESPACES` array, then one entry in the `CATALOGS`
-   map. Registration is append-only; nothing else in the file changes.
-3. **Shipping.** Append `'<code>'` to `CATALOG_LOCALES` in
-   `src/i18n/locale.js`. This single constant is what makes the locale
-   normalizable-to-shipped: pair config, `?lang=`, storage, and the
-   selector all read from it. Regional variants (`es-MX`, `es_419`)
-   already normalize — locale-code hygiene is shipped ahead of the
-   locales on purpose.
-4. **Selector labels.** Append
-   `'locale.<code>.ariaLabel': 'Switch to <Language>'` to the `shell`
-   catalog of EVERY shipped locale (en included — the en catalog names
-   the new button; the new catalog names the English one).
-   `markupCoverage.test.mjs` requires a label for every shipped code in
-   every catalog, so this cannot be forgotten.
-5. **Plurals.** Plural entries are variant objects carrying a `{count}`
-   placeholder, selected per active locale through `Intl.PluralRules`.
-   English entries use `{ one, other }`. Your locale must keep every en
-   variant and may add ONLY categories `Intl.PluralRules` reports valid
-   for it (e.g. a Slavic locale adds `few`/`many`) —
-   `catalog.test.mjs` enforces this shape against the live ICU data.
-   Pin your locale's real-catalog plural agreement in
-   `src/i18n/i18n.test.mjs` (one/few/many/other counts where relevant).
-6. **Layout.** Prefer concise glossary-approved copy over CSS surgery;
-   fixed-width `nowrap` panels must be checked at narrow viewports. A
-   locale-scoped wrap rule (`html[lang='<code>'] .cctv-controls {
-   flex-wrap: wrap; }` in `src/ui/styles/cctv.css`) is added ONLY when
-   the locale demonstrably clips, with a comment recording the measured
-   widths — the English layout stays pixel-identical, and
-   `repairPass.test.mjs` rejects a wrap rule shipping ahead of its
-   locale.
-7. **Gates.** `node --test src/i18n/` must be green with the strict
-   parity gate ON: exact key-set equality with en, identical
-   placeholder names, plural-shape superset. While a new catalog is a
-   staged untranslated seed, CI may run with
-   `GEV_I18N_REQUIRE_FULL_LOCALE_PARITY=0` (subset mode) — record every
-   such flip here, and record the flip back.
-8. **Docs.** Add the locale's section + glossary to this file, note it
-   in `docs/CURRENT-STATE.md` (Internationalization) and `CHANGELOG.md`,
-   and update the shipped-locales wording in `.env.example`.
-
-## Append-only rules
-
-- New keys are appended to the END of the namespace file in EVERY
-  shipped locale directory in the same change. Never edit another
-  namespace's files, and never touch the registration arrays in
-  `src/i18n/index.js` without re-reading this guide first.
-- A fifth namespace is a last resort (prefer fitting one of the four); its
-  registration recipe is the same append-only pattern as a locale (step 2
-  of the recipe above), applied to every shipped locale at once.
-- Parity is enforced by tests, not goodwill: no locale may carry a key en
-  lacks, and every shared key must keep identical placeholder names
-  and a plural-variant set that includes every en variant plus only
-  categories `Intl.PluralRules` reports for that locale
-  (`src/i18n/catalog.test.mjs`).
-
-## Placeholder, plural, and typography rules
-
-- Interpolation uses named `{camelCase}` placeholders:
-  `'Flying to {place}…'`. The **same placeholder names must exist in
-  every locale** — the parity gate fails on a renamed `{name}` because
-  it would break interpolation at runtime.
-- Locale-aware numbers, dates, and relative times go through the
-  `formatNumber` / `formatDate` / `formatRelativeTime` helpers in
-  `src/i18n/index.js` — do not hand-format in a catalog call site.
-- Style: the English catalog is ALL-CAPS for tactical labels, readouts,
-  and status text; translations follow the same convention in their
-  script's norms. The `·` separator used between metadata segments is
-  part of the surface style and is reproduced in translations.
-- Instrument codes stay identical across languages; units (KTS, FT, km,
-  km²) are never translated.
-- Romance languages run ~25% longer than English and Slavic languages
-  compound that on multi-word tactical labels — plan string budgets and
-  check fixed-width panels before review (see step 6 above).
-
-## Keep-English boundary (summary)
-
-Never catalog these — they are contracts, not copy:
-
-- Internal layer IDs and registry keys (`military-installations`,
-  `ais-live-vessels`, stack ids).
-- Status enums and machine values (`FEED_STATE_LABELS` keys, lifecycle
-  states, detection/context modes) — translate only the final label at
-  the presentation boundary.
-- URL/hash contracts: share-link parameters, `?welcome=`, `?lang=`,
-  storage schemas.
-- API fields, voice tool names/schemas, `/api/setup/*` payloads.
-- Provider/dataset/product names, callsigns, vessel/satellite/place
-  names from data, news headlines, license/source attributions.
-- Console diagnostics, QA pin scripts, and existing exact-English test
-  expectations.
-- User-authored content (annotations, labels drawn from live data).
-
-Adjudicated exceptions live in "Internationalization" in
-[`docs/CURRENT-STATE.md`](./CURRENT-STATE.md) (accepted deferrals — do not
-"fix" them silently).
-
-## Glossary
-
-Approved recurring terms per locale. Each locale PR appends its
- glossary here (English term · translation · catalog evidence) so later
- translators reuse approved copy verbatim. None yet — the first entry
- arrives with the first translated locale.
-
-## Running the i18n test gates
+## The check
 
 ```sh
-node --test src/i18n/            # 40 tests: core + pair config, catalog parity, markup coverage, repair-pass anchors
-npm test                         # full suite (see below for the known environmental caveat)
+npm run i18n                      # what is missing, unused or broken, per language
+npm run i18n -- --missing ru      # missing ru entries as JSON, ready to translate
+npm run i18n -- --prune           # drop entries the code no longer uses
 ```
 
-- `src/i18n/i18n.test.mjs` — resolution precedence, guarded storage,
-  fallback, interpolation, plural selection (contract + synthetic
-  missing-category degradation; real-catalog plural pins arrive with
-  each locale PR), DOM application.
-- `src/i18n/catalog.test.mjs` — key + placeholder + plural-shape parity for
-  every shipped locale against en, strict `REQUIRE_FULL_PARITY` gate
-  (vacuous while only en ships; each locale PR meets it from day one).
-- `src/i18n/markupCoverage.test.mjs` — every `data-i18n*` attribute in
-  `index.html` must resolve in every shipped catalog; unknown attribute
-  spellings fail loudly.
-- `src/i18n/repairPass.test.mjs` — byte-identity anchors for English
-  literals; per-locale value anchors arrive with each locale PR.
+`npm test` runs the same check (`src/i18n/catalog.test.mjs`). It fails when a translation is missing, when an entry is no longer used, when placeholders differ from the English, or when a plural entry lacks a form.
 
-Full-suite caveat: `src/devFreshDotenv.test.mjs`'s external-keys provenance
-test fails when a provider key (e.g. `OPENAI_API_KEY`) is exported in the
-running shell — an environmental false positive unrelated to i18n.
+Changing English text changes its key: the old translation becomes unused and the new text shows as missing. Translate it and prune.
+
+## Fixing a translation
+
+Edit `src/i18n/locales/<code>.json` and run `npm run i18n`. To see your change, open the app with `?lang=<code>`.
+
+## Adding a language
+
+1. Create `src/i18n/locales/<code>.json`, fill it from `npm run i18n -- --missing <code>` (start from `{}`), and translate every entry.
+2. Import it in `src/i18n/index.js` and add it to `CATALOGS`.
+3. Add the code to `LOCALES` and its own-language name to `LOCALE_NAMES` in `src/i18n/locale.js`. Right-to-left languages also go in `RTL_LOCALES`.
+4. Add `src/i18n/locales/<code>.json` next to `ru.json` in `scripts/package-boundaries.json`.
+5. Run `npm run i18n` and `npm test`, then check the panels in the app at narrow widths.
+
+## Rules
+
+- Keep every `{placeholder}` exactly as in the English; you may move it.
+- UPPERCASE English stays UPPERCASE. Short labels, chips and HUD readouts should stay short; prefer an abbreviation over a wrapped line.
+- Keep the separators `·`, `—`, `→`, `↗`, `…`.
+- Leave product, provider and data names in their original form: Google Maps, Cesium ion, OpenAI, ChatGPT, NASA FIRMS, USGS, OpenSky, ADS-B, AIS, CCTV, HUD, TomTom, OpenStreetMap, Mapillary, and keyboard keys (Space, Esc, H, 1–9).
+- Units follow the language's convention (Russian: км, м/с, уз, фт).
+
+## Never translated
+
+These are contracts, not copy: layer ids and registry keys, status enums and other machine values (translate only the label shown for them), share-link and hash parameters, `?lang=`, storage schemas, API fields, voice tool names and schemas, provider and dataset names, data from feeds (callsigns, vessel, satellite, station and place names, headlines), attribution, console diagnostics, and user-authored content.

+# UI text and translation
+
+Every piece of text a user can see goes through `t()`, `tn()` or `msg()` in code, or a `data-i18n*` attribute in markup. The English text itself is the key. English needs no catalog; other languages live in `src/i18n/locales/<code>.json`. Translators work from [TRANSLATORS.md](./TRANSLATORS.md).
+
+## Which one to use
+
+|                                 | Translates                        | Use for                                       |
+| ------------------------------- | --------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
+| `t(text, values)`               | now                               | any text shown right where it is written      |
+| `tn(count, one, other, values)` | now, picking the form for `count` | text that changes with a number               |
+| `msg(text)`                     | never: returns `text` unchanged   | text stored in data and passed to `t()` later |
+
+```js
+import { t, tn, msg } from '../i18n/index.js';
+
+status.textContent = t('Save keys');
+status.textContent = t('Saved to {store}', { store: storeLabel() });
+
+chip.textContent = tn(missing, '{count} KEY WAITING', '{count} KEYS WAITING');
+// en: 1 KEY / 3 KEYS     ru: 1 КЛЮЧ / 3 КЛЮЧА / 5 КЛЮЧЕЙ
+
+const FEED_STATE_LABELS = { loading: msg('LOADING'), stale: msg('STALE') };
+label.textContent = t(FEED_STATE_LABELS[state]);
+```
+
+`msg()` exists for two reasons. `npm run i18n` finds messages only as string literals inside `t(…)`, `tn(…)` and `msg(…)`, so `t(FEED_STATE_LABELS[state])` alone tells it nothing. And a `t()` call at module load runs before the page has picked its language, so it would freeze the English.
+
+## Markup
+
+```html
+<span data-i18n>Normal</span>
+<button title="Pin visual presets" data-i18n-title>…</button>
+<input placeholder="Search any location..." data-i18n-placeholder />
+```
+
+`data-i18n` replaces the element's text, so put it on the element that directly holds the text, never on a parent with child elements. `data-i18n-title`, `data-i18n-aria-label` and `data-i18n-placeholder` translate that attribute. Markup is translated once at boot, and switching language reloads the page.
+
+## Rules
+
+- **Pass literals.** `t('Close')`, not `t(label)` (unless `label` holds a `msg()` value) and never a template literal with `${…}`.
+- **Use placeholders, not concatenation.** `t('Flying to {place}…', { place })`, not `t('Flying to') + ' ' + place`. Word order differs between languages.
+- **Use `tn()` for counts**, not `count === 1 ? … : …`. Russian has three forms.
+- **Translate the label, not the value.** Layer ids, enums, share-link parameters, API fields, voice tool schemas and feed data (callsigns, vessel and place names) stay as they are; translate only the text shown for them.
+- **No `t()` at module top level.** Keep the English in `msg()` and call `t()` when rendering.
+- **Numbers and dates** go through `formatNumber`, `formatDate` and `formatRelativeTime` from `src/i18n/index.js`, which follow the active language.
+- **Identical English means identical translation.** If two places need different words, make the English differ.
+- **Text that should stay English** (a brand, a code, a unit symbol) is simply not wrapped.
+
+## After you add or change text
+
+```sh
+npm run i18n                     # shows what each language now lacks or no longer uses
+npm run i18n -- --missing ru     # the missing ru entries as JSON
+npm run i18n -- --prune          # drop entries whose English no longer exists
+```
+
+Changing the English changes the key, so the old translation goes unused and the new text shows as missing. Add the translation to `src/i18n/locales/ru.json` (or ask a translator), prune, and run `npm test`, which runs the same check and fails until every language is complete.
+
+To see a language, open the app with `?lang=ru`, or use the EN/RU switch in the Visual Presets dock.
+
+## Where things live
+
+| File                           | What it holds                                                                 |

 ## How it works
 
-The English text is the key. There is no English catalog: the code is the source.
-
-```js
-t('Save keys'); // plain text
-t('Saved to {store}', { store }); // named placeholders
-tn(count, '{count} camera', '{count} cameras'); // count-dependent text
-msg('Live Flights'); // text kept in data, translated later by t()

-```html
-<span data-i18n>Normal</span>
-<button title="Pin visual presets" data-i18n-title>…</button>
-```
-
-`data-i18n` translates the element's own text (put it on the element that holds the text, not on a parent with children). `data-i18n-title`, `data-i18n-aria-label` and `data-i18n-placeholder` translate that attribute's English value.
+The English text is the key: code calls `t('Save keys')`, and markup marks elements with `data-i18n`. How developers mark text is in [I18N.md](./I18N.md).

+Each language keeps its glossary, plural forms, units and style in its own file, `docs/translations/<code>.md`: [Russian](./translations/ru.md). Read it before translating, and add a term there when you settle on one.

+# Russian (`ru`)
+
+Catalog: `src/i18n/locales/ru.json`. General rules: [TRANSLATORS.md](../TRANSLATORS.md).
+
+## Style
+
+- Address the user with polite imperatives: «Нажмите», «Включите», «Попробуйте снова».
+- Sentence case, not Title Case: "Live Flights" → «Рейсы в реальном времени».
+- Quotes inside Russian text are «ёлочки». Write ё where it belongs: её, ещё, всё.
+- In short labels, a standard abbreviation with a period beats a wrapped line: НЕОПРЕД., СЛЕД.
+- Units: км, м, км/ч, м/с, уз (knots), фт (feet), ч, мин, с; in UPPERCASE text КМ, М, КМ/С, УЗ, ФТ. MW is МВт in any case. `°` and `%` stay.
+
+## Plurals
+
+A `tn()` entry needs four forms. `Intl.PluralRules('ru')` picks:
+
+| Form    | Counts                   | Example    |
+| ------- | ------------------------ | ---------- |
+| `one`   | 1, 21, 31, 101…          | 1 камера   |
+| `few`   | 2–4, 22–24, 32–34…       | 3 камеры   |
+| `many`  | 0, 5–20, 25–30, 111–114… | 5 камер    |
+| `other` | fractions: 1.5, 2.25…    | 1,5 камеры |
+
+When a word next to a number cannot agree in every form, move the number after a colon instead: «доступно {bikes}», «ответов: {responses}».

Subject: [PATCH 18/89] feat(i18n): Spanish catalog

Meir Michanie's Spanish translation from #602 (9d69e11, 4ba5d69), converted
to the English-keyed format: one entry per English message in
src/i18n/locales/es.json, translations unchanged. Also carries the es-only
CCTV control-row wrap rule.

Subject: [PATCH 19/89] feat(i18n): ship Spanish
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Register es next to ru (selector shows EN | ES | RU) and complete the
catalog against the current English: the 13 messages added since #602,
the "many" plural form Intl.PluralRules('es') selects for exact millions,
and fixes where the English had changed (e.g. "hace hace" in LIVE ·
updated, minutes written as metres). Terminology made consistent (buque,
aeronave, incendio activo); key names stay in English. Meir's wording is
kept everywhere else. Adds docs/translations/es.md.

+# Spanish (`es`)
+
+Catalog: `src/i18n/locales/es.json`. General rules: [TRANSLATORS.md](../TRANSLATORS.md).
+
+## Style
+
+- Neutral Spanish that reads naturally in Spain and Latin America; avoid regionalisms.
+- Address the user with informal "tú" imperatives: «Añade», «Activa», «Elige», «Pega», «Inténtalo de nuevo». Tooltips that name an action may use the infinitive: «Expandir el panel», «Restablecer la cámara».
+- Sentence case, not Title Case: "Live Flights" → «Vuelos en vivo». UPPERCASE English stays UPPERCASE: «EN VIVO», «SIN DATOS».
+- Quotes inside Spanish text are straight double quotes: «¿Eliminar el plano "{shot}"?». Questions and exclamations open with ¿ and ¡.
+- Short labels, chips and HUD readouts stay short. A standard abbreviation with a period beats a wrapped line: ANT., SIG., VEL., DIST., SINCR., cám., cob.
+- The HUD codes HDG, BRG, CRS, FOV, DEST, SPD, RANGE and ALT stay in English everywhere, as in cockpit avionics. Words used in a sentence are translated: heading → «rumbo», range → «alcance».
+- Keyboard keys stay in English: Space, Esc, Enter, Tab, Shift, H, 1–9 («Mantén pulsado Space para hablar»).
+- Units: km, m, km/h, m/s, kn (knots), ft (feet), h, min, s; in UPPERCASE text KM, KM/S, KN, FT, MIN, H. "m" is always metres, so minutes are «min» («hace 5 min»). MW stays MW. `°` and `%` stay.
+- "ago" goes before the time: «hace {count} min». When a placeholder already holds a localized "ago" text (`{age}`, `{ago}`), do not add «hace» again.
+- Spelling: «costo» (not «coste»).
+
+## Plurals
+
+A `tn()` entry needs three forms. `Intl.PluralRules('es')` picks:
+
+| Form    | Counts                                 | Example              |
+| ------- | -------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
+| `one`   | 1                                      | 1 cámara             |
+| `many`  | 1 000 000, 2 000 000… (exact millions) | 1 000 000 de cámaras |
+| `other` | everything else: 0, 2–999 999, 1.5…    | 3 cámaras            |
+
+The `many` form is the `other` text with «de» after the number: «{count} de cámaras cargadas», «{count} DE CLAVES EN ESPERA».

Subject: [PATCH 20/89] fix(i18n): translate visual preset parameter sliders
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The slider labels (Sensitivity, Bloom, Pixelation, …) live in the shader
modules and were rendered raw, so they stayed English in every locale.
Mark them with msg() and render them through t(); add es and ru entries.
WHOT/BHOT and Ironbow keep their names. Russian Bloom is now «Свечение».

Subject: [PATCH 21/89] fix(i18n): translate the Street Level and Draw panels
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Both panels landed after the original string extraction, so they rendered
English in every locale. Mark their markup and runtime text (status, SINCE
stops, provider tooltips, coverage meta, viewer captions, draw hints and
colours), the layer-list names kept in PANEL_LABELS, and add 90 es and ru
entries. Street Level is «Уличные снимки» / «A pie de calle».

Subject: [PATCH 22/89] feat(i18n): find UI text that is not marked for
 translation

npm run i18n now also lists, and fails on, markup text and title /
aria-label / placeholder without data-i18n*, and string literals that reach
the page (textContent, innerHTML, setAttribute, toasts, label:/title:
properties and similar) without t(), tn() or msg(). Opt-outs say why where
the text lives: translate="no" and data-i18n-runtime in markup,
// i18n-ignore in code. src/tools/ is skipped: its text is for AI clients.

534 places are reported today; npm test does not run this part yet.

+## Text the check reports as unmarked
+
+`npm run i18n` also lists UI text that is not marked at all, and fails while there is any:
+
+- **Markup:** element text without `data-i18n`, and `title`, `aria-label` or `placeholder` without the matching `data-i18n-*`.
+- **Code:** string literals that reach the page without `t()`, `tn()` or `msg()`: assigned to `textContent`, `innerText`, `innerHTML`, `title`, `placeholder`; passed to `setAttribute('title' | 'aria-label' | 'aria-valuetext' | 'placeholder' | 'alt', …)`, `createTextNode`, `insertAdjacentHTML`, `showToast`, `toast`, `setHint`, `announce`; or kept in `label:`, `title:`, `tooltip:`, `placeholder:`, `hint:`, `ariaLabel:`, `caption:`, `subtitle:`, `kicker:`, `emptyText:` properties.
+
+Fix it by marking the text. When the text must stay as it is, say so where it lives:
+
+| Case                                                                        | How                                                                      |
+| --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| Codes, units, product names in markup (`0.9 dB`, `ADS-B · 1090`, `OpenSky`) | `translate="no"` on the element; it covers everything inside, as in HTML |
+| Markup whose text code sets through `t()` (a status that starts as `OFF`)   | `data-i18n-runtime` on the element                                       |
+| A literal in code that is not UI copy (a product name, sample data)         | `// i18n-ignore: <reason>` on the line or the line above                 |
+
+Icons (`aria-hidden="true"`, Material Symbols), comments, CSS values and lowercase identifiers are skipped automatically, and so is `src/tools/`, whose text is written for AI clients rather than the page.

Subject: [PATCH 23/89] feat(i18n): translate the whole interface

Mark every UI string the unmarked-text check reported (534) plus text it
cannot see (helpers, joined labels, runtime-built panels), and translate
the result to Spanish and Russian: 1,679 messages each.

- Kept on purpose, with the reason where the text lives: provider and
  product names, place and camera names, codes and units, dB values, the HUD
  terminal readouts, demo shot titles that saved projects look up by title,
  and text for AI tools and the voice model.
- Modules shared with the server or AI tools stay free of the i18n import
  (local msg); the wind reading and voice session stay English and are
  translated where the page shows them.
- npm test now runs the unmarked-text check.
- Fixes on the way: a duplicated radio privacy paragraph, the contact panel
  toggle saying Expand while open, the CSS filter mistaking &amp; for CSS.

Subject: [PATCH 24/89] fix(i18n): fix Russian layouts and the gaps the
 screenshot review found
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A review of the Russian UI screenshots found ~90 places where longer words
broke the layout or text was still English. Fixed so they hold for any
language, then shortened where a control is short by design.

- Layout: label columns that size to their text (weather and wind settings,
  Recent Imagery slots and opacity, style sliders, display panel), layer
  list names and icons, buttons that wrap instead of overflowing (CCTV,
  scenes, Bhote Koshi), voice header that always shows the cost, styled
  EN | ES | RU chips, voice error tray above the dock.
- t() context: t('CLEAR', { context: 'action' }) is «СБРОСИТЬ» while the sky
  stays «ЯСНО»; also used for radio categories, voice states and directions.
- Units and dates follow the locale through src/ui/unitLabels.js
  (formatQuantity: localized number, translated unit, non-breaking space):
  wind, pressure, cyclones, directions, CCTV, SDR gain, scene timing, flight
  tooltip, Recent Imagery dates and resolution.
- Newly translated: directions turn-by-turn steps (built from the maneuver;
  English matches the server word for word), HUD mode and summary, voice
  card states, radio categories on the globe, CCTV status, layer source
  lines, scene dialogs (Cancel, file pickers), Bhote Koshi statuses, titles,
  comparison dates and caveat, Recent Imagery notices. Stored data and text
  for AI tools stay English.
- es and ru: 1,885 messages each.

Subject: [PATCH 25/89] fix(i18n): second screenshot review: remaining English,
 numbers and wraps
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

From the re-shot Russian screenshots:
- Translated: weather frame/imagery status errors, HUD summary provenance
  ("НЕДОСТУПНО: СУДА AIS ОНЛАЙН"), Bhote Koshi map labels, cockpit signal
  distances (КМ). The HUD summary fields are separated with " · " in every
  language, so the style name and view band no longer read as one phrase.
- Numbers follow the locale: cockpit altitude ("26 175"), precipitation.
- No breaks inside codes and dates: ADS-B and similar in layer rows,
  Sentinel-2, cyclone issue dates (word joiner; the UI font has no U+2011),
  no-break space after label colons in cyclone details.
- Layout: count lines under ALPR, short unavailable chip (context
  "status chip"), roomier draw segments, tighter CCTV calibration chips,
  two-line beat titles and media card titles, wrapping weather status.
- Wording: ru advisory is «сводка» (was «бюллетень»; "Advisory center" is
  «Центр циклона по сводке»), Street View is «Просмотр улиц», OPACITY
  «НЕПРОЗР.», synced «синхр.», Area «Зона»; the import dialog no longer says
  "this scene" for several scenes. Glossary updated.

Subject: [PATCH 28/89] fix(i18n): restore English output changed by the i18n
 foundation

A side-by-side English comparison with main found text the branch changed:
- Layer list names: #601 let its own catalog names win over the panel's
  English names, so "Live Vessels" read "Live AIS Vessels", "Bike Share"
  "Bikeshare", "Cameras" "CCTV", "Data Centers" "Datacenters", "Active Fires"
  "FIRMS Active Fires". The panel names win again.
- HUD feed-state suffix is "UNAVAILABLE LIVE AIS VESSELS" again (Russian keeps
  its colon); the mission panel aria-label is "Selected Space Mission" again;
  scene shot timing is "4.0s + 0.9s" again.

Subject: [PATCH 29/89] fix(i18n): keep English pixel-identical and stored data
 English

From the English-parity and breakage review against main:
- English wording back to main: "Configured Source", the "SHARED SUBJECT"
  fallback, CCTV calibration "RANGE 120m".
- Voice header and CCTV calibration chip/select tweaks for long labels now
  apply to non-English only (html:not([lang='en'])); English matches main.
  The scene select font change is scoped the same way.
- New scenes and shots store their default title in English ("Scene 3",
  "Shot 2") and translate it when shown, so a title captured in one language
  does not leak into projects, storage or shared JSON.
- Choosing a language with storage blocked keeps it in ?lang instead of
  silently doing nothing.
- One picked import file shows its name again.
- qa-l9-matrix reads the voice state from data-status, not the label.

Subject: [PATCH 30/89] fix(i18n): toast, boot labels and AI tool text found in
 review

- The Space Missions cancellation failure toast read "[object Object]" in
  every language: the options object was passed as the message. The English
  message is the second argument again, the translation the third.
- Header text is translated before panel chrome builds its collapse labels,
  so the dock and display toggles no longer read "Expand VISUAL PRESETS" in
  another language.
- The voice "show data layers" result keeps the English layer name
  (row data-layer-name), not the translated row text.
- The Google 3D unavailable reason is translated in full.

Subject: [PATCH 31/89] fix(i18n): keep values the AI tools read in English

- Satellite class in analyst records and voice payloads stays English
  ("STATION", "COMMS"), so voice filters on the class work in every
  language; cards and the legend still show the translated label.
- Layer source names (OSM routing, ALPR sources) stay English in layer
  state; the layer row translates them.
- New translateKnown(): catalog text when there is an entry, the given text
  otherwise, with no warning. The layer row uses it for loading labels and
  errors, Recent Imagery for its notices.
- Mark the remaining Recent Imagery and wind messages.

The fallback summary reads "NORMAL CITY NEAR …" again in English; the
translations keep the " · " separators that stop the style and view band
reading as one phrase.

Subject: [PATCH 34/89] fix(i18n): Street Level errors in the UI language; hint
 row wraps

The Street Level error line and its toasts showed provider errors as
thrown (Google's key-rejected message stayed English). They go through
translateKnown now. In a translation the coverage hint no longer shrinks
to a narrow column beside OPEN GOOGLE STREET VIEW: the button takes its
own line when both do not fit. English layout is unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 35/89] fix(i18n): Spanish review fixes; report translations
 left in English
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A screenshot review of the Spanish UI found:

- Text left in English. Catalog entries copied from English (Bloom,
  Cyber, Pin, NEWS, SITE, ON/OFF, RANGE, PITCH, HGT…) and the radio
  music genres, which never went through t(). The genres are translated
  in es and ru now.
- Wording: gender agreement, calques of the English, hints that name
  buttons that do not exist, and one concept worded two ways.
- Layout: the DESACTIVADO pill squeezed layer names until words broke
  mid-word; the scene and camera selects showed one word; a collapsed
  rail title pushed its button out of the card; the image slot line and
  a comparison readout were cut or split.

The layout fixes are scoped to languages other than English, so English
stays pixel-identical. Visual-style slider values now use the locale's
decimal separator (0,85).

npm run i18n now reports a translation that is identical to the
English, unless src/i18n/same-as-english.json lists it for that language
(codes, product names, words spelled the same).

Subject: [PATCH 36/89] fix(i18n): Google controls, vessel units and counts
 follow the UI language

Screens that only open with provider keys showed a few gaps:

- Google Street View's own controls (Map Data, Terms, Report a problem)
  and its addresses were always English: the Maps script now loads with
  the UI language. English adds no parameter, as before.
- The selected-vessel HUD line kept KT and DEG after translated labels.
- Layer counts used a decimal point (12.0K); other languages use their
  own separator (12,0K).
- A collapsed rail title was cut with an ellipsis in Russian; tighter
  tracking fits it whole. English is unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 37/89] fix(i18n): Contacts panel text and distances in the UI
 language

The Contacts panel builds its markup in a variable before innerHTML, so
the unmarked-text check missed it: the window caption, "Named areas", the
"at least" count and each cohort's reason stayed English, and distances
read "4.6 km" in every language.

The reason stays English in the cohort summary, which the voice analyst
reads too; it now also carries its template, and the panel shows it in
the UI language. Distances and counts use the locale's number format
and unit.

Subject: [PATCH 38/89] fix(i18n): Spanish keeps the HUD codes RANGE and SPD,
 as its glossary says

The review fixes had turned RANGE into DIST. and SPD into VEL.; the
Spanish glossary keeps HDG, BRG, CRS, FOV, DEST, SPD, RANGE and ALT in
English like cockpit avionics. The glossary now records the terms the
review settled: ACTIVO / INACTIVO, marcador, resplandor, Ciber,
NOTICIAS, INCL. / ALT.

Subject: [PATCH 39/89] fix(i18n): wording, dates and directions from the
 cross-model review
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Two other models reviewed the ru and es review PDFs. What held up:

- Directions: Russian reads "держитесь левее" at a fork and "займите
  левую полосу" for a lane, Spanish "toma el carril izquierdo". Forks and
  lanes get their own direction words; English is unchanged.
- Weather timestamps read "13.10 19:04 UTC" / "13/10 19:04 UTC" instead
  of "10-13", which read as a range. English keeps "10-13".
- Cockpit coordinates write the hemisphere out in Russian ("30,312° с.
  ш."): a lone «С» after a degree sign read as Celsius.
- A layer whose source joins several providers shows each name in the UI
  language ("Mapillary · Google Просмотр улиц").
- Vessel speed uses the locale's decimal separator.
- Layer names no longer hyphenate into two-letter pieces ("es-paciales").
- Catalog: wrong meanings (cyclone centre, STREAMING, credited source,
  "DE OÍDAS"), calques ("Пацифика", "Активная погода", "Прочитать вид",
  "referrer", worker), Russian "щёлкните по …", shorter Spanish labels
  that were cut (voice status, PREAJUSTES, search placeholder) and one
  term per concept.

Subject: [PATCH 40/89] fix(i18n): map cards and wind readout in the UI
 language; final review wording
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

A final review of both PDFs found text the earlier checks missed:

- Map cards: fire confidence (high/nominal/low) and age (24h), vessel
  types (TOWING, TANKER) and installation classes (BASE, AIRFIELD) showed
  in English. They now go through the catalog; the data stays English.
- The wind readout kept "10-14 14:00 UTC" and "29.93°N 97.74°W"; it now
  uses the locale's date, decimal separator and hemisphere letters.
- Catalog: one term per concept (label/подпись, basemap/подложка,
  PROVIDER CONTROLS, HEARD, zoom in, REGIONAL NEWS), calques and broken
  grammar in the scene editor, provider settings and Bhote Koshi notes,
  and Spanish wording that read wrong ("restringidas por el proveedor",
  "Incluye … no se incluyen", "justo ahora", "Sal").

Subject: [PATCH 41/89] fix(i18n): selected fire card power and coordinates in
 the UI language
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The selected fire card read "4.9 MW" and "8.389°S 44.162°W" in every
language; it now uses the locale's decimal separator and hemisphere
words ("4,9 МВт", "8,389° ю. ш."). The data labels stay as they were.

Subject: [PATCH 42/89] fix(director): keep scene results and save status
 accurate (#971)

- Guard against legacy pack bootstrap during unreadable storage recovery
- Report failed saves honestly across captures, updates, and imports
- Resolve default scene id correctly when advancing past a specific shot
- Count unique scenes executed rather than queued shots in run telemetry
- Return run failure status when playback throws instead of false success
- Pin five regression scenarios in src/scenes/director971.test.mjs

Subject: [PATCH 43/89] test(launches): add finiteCoordinate and stage
 normalization edge-case coverage

- Pin finiteCoordinate helper behavior across numeric, non-finite, and string inputs
- Verify recovery stage downrange distance, flight numbers, and coordinates fall back safely to null on non-finite data
- Pin recovery status transitions for LOST and EXPENDABLE stage categories
- Verify payload massKg and amount normalization edge cases for blank, negative, and non-numeric values

Subject: [PATCH 44/89] test(street-level): settle coverage before reading the
 ON/OFF pill

The pill step read #sl-status straight after the credit wait. Tiles
requested while Cesium painted the credit can flip it back to LOADING,
which failed CI on PR #1038 (actual 'BUTTON:LOADING:true'). Wait for
coverage to settle and the pill to read ON before asserting.

Subject: [PATCH 45/89] i18n: fix review findings and polish ru/es strings
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Fixes the 51 P0–P2 findings from the full review of the i18n branch and
the issues found while checking every new string on screen in ru and es.

- Translate errors and statuses that still reached ru/es in English:
  feed and tile errors, provider statuses, the ALPR chip, the traffic
  mode chip, voice plan step labels, fire feed values, receiver bands,
  scene save reasons and the Cesium attribution link.
- Show preset city names in the UI language (src/ui/placeNames.js);
  data and everything sent to the model stay English.
- Share layer names between the layer panel, HUD and voice card
  (src/ui/layerNames.js).
- Keep long ru/es strings whole: voice card error lines, analyst
  titles, the voice tier status, the Nepal evidence button, the ALPR
  retry chip. English layout is unchanged.
- Ask before a language switch drops unsaved work.
- Catalog fixes: glossary terms (пуск, пресет), gender agreement and
  consistent "peticiones" in es, fewer calques in both languages.
- Fix English text that was itself wrong (e.g. "Exit cockpit to fly to
  a weather", raw tool ids in voice plan steps).

Catalogs: es/ru 2535 messages each, complete.

+ * qa-scene-dialog-file-drop — the SHARE SCENE dialog's file control accepts a
+ * file dropped from the desktop, proved in a real browser.
+ *
+ * The dialog replaces the browser-drawn "Choose files / No file chosen" line
+ * with a translated one (src/ui/sceneSharing.js, fileChooser). The native
+ * input must stay the whole control underneath it: a shrunken 1 px input
+ * accepts drops only on its own pixel, so dragging a data-pack file onto the
+ * visible row selected nothing. This harness drops a file onto the centre of
+ * the visible row through CDP and expects `input.files` to hold it.
+ *
+ * Usage:
+ *   node scripts/qa-scene-dialog-file-drop.mjs
+ *
+ * Needs the repository's puppeteer (devDependencies). Exit status 0 when the
+ * drop selects the file, 1 otherwise.

Subject: [PATCH 46/89] i18n: wrap the ru/es push-to-talk hint; show city names
 in voice results
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- The help tray over the mic clipped the longer ru/es hint ("Hold Space
  to speak · tap Space to activate focused controls"); let it wrap in
  non-English locales. English layout is unchanged.
- The fly-to headline and the nearest-aircraft distance line now show a
  preset city in the interface language (Tokyo → Токио / Tokio); speech
  sent to the model stays English.

Subject: [PATCH 47/89] fix(i18n): Panoramax count line says nearest photo, not
 its photos

Panoramax's coverageLabel action is 'click a line for its nearest
photo' (like KartaView's) while it counts sequences, but the count-line
discriminator keyed only off the noun, so Panoramax fell through to the
default pair and promised 'its photos'. Discriminate on the action
first, then the noun, and add the sequences + nearest-photo pair
(KartaView keeps streets + nearest-photo; the default keeps sequences +
photos).

Subject: [PATCH 50/89] i18n: language picker in the bottom-right corner

Replaces the EN/ES/RU buttons in the Visual Presets dock with a picker
that scales to many languages: a globe button with the current code
next to the POWER UP chip, opening a list of languages named in their
own language with their codes, the current one first and checked. A
search field appears past 8 languages. Keyboard: arrows, Home/End,
Enter/Space, Esc, type-ahead; keys stay in the list while it is open.
Choosing a language still asks before dropping unsaved work, then
reloads. Phones get the globe alone and a full-width sheet; the layout
uses logical properties for right-to-left languages.

 Changing the English changes the key, so the old translation goes unused and the new text shows as missing. Add the translation to `src/i18n/locales/ru.json` (or ask a translator), prune, and run `npm test`, which runs the same check and fails until every language is complete.

 An empty translation is reported, and so is one that is exactly the English ("Bloom" → "Bloom"), including any plural form left as the English: it is reported as still English. When it is right on purpose, such as a code (HDG, CRT), a product name or a word spelled the same in that language, list it under the language in `src/i18n/same-as-english.json`.

Subject: [PATCH 51/89] fix(cctv): keep missing numbers unknown instead of
 reading them as zero

Number() reads null, blank strings and booleans as 0 (or 1), and
/api/cctv/sources sends an unknown number as JSON null. A source-pack
camera that left out its pose therefore reached the browser as zeros
clamped to each field's floor (north, pitch -2, FOV 20, range 120 m,
mount 6 m, ground 0 m) instead of taking the defaults, and a null or
blank position put the camera at 0,0.

toFiniteNumber (server) and safeNumber (browser) now return the fallback
for absent, blank and boolean values, as validateBox already does for
Recent Imagery. The same conversion fixes the per-pack paths: a Tallinn
row with a null heading no longer reads as a high-confidence north-facing
camera, a Caltrans camera with a blank elevation keeps its 150 m ground
prior, and TfL or Catalonia cameras with a null or blank coordinate are
dropped instead of kept at 0,0 or on the zero meridian.

+- Keep missing CCTV numbers unknown instead of reading them as zero. `Number`
+  turns null, blank strings and booleans into 0 or 1, and the camera source
+  list sends an unknown number as JSON null, so a source-pack camera that left
+  out its pose reached the browser as zeros clamped to each field's floor —
+  facing north, pitch −2°, FOV 20°, range 120 m, mount 6 m and ground 0 m —
+  instead of the defaults (id-hash heading, −17°, 74°, 700 m, 24 m and the
+  city's ground); a null or blank position placed the camera at 0,0. The
+  server's `toFiniteNumber` and the browser's `safeNumber` now treat absent,
+  blank and boolean values as missing. The same conversion also stops a
+  Tallinn row with a null heading reading as a confident north-facing camera,
+  a Caltrans camera with a blank elevation losing its 150 m ground prior, and
+  a TfL or Catalonia camera with a null or blank coordinate being kept at 0,0

+## CCTV missing numeric fields
+
+CCTV numbers are read as missing when they are absent, null, blank or boolean,
+on the server (`toFiniteNumber`, every pack and the file/env source packs) and
+in the browser (`safeNumber`). `/api/cctv/sources` sends an unknown number as
+JSON null; the browser then applies the field's default — id-hash heading,
+pitch −17°, FOV 74°, range 700 m, mount 24 m, the city's ground elevation —
+rather than reading zero and clamping it to the field's floor. A camera with a
+missing latitude or longitude is skipped by the browser catalog instead of
+being placed at 0,0. Real zeros, including `"0"`, are kept.

- Bicing (543 stations, PBSC) and AMBici (237 e-bike stations across the
  metropolitan area, nextbike) join the GBFS registry from the operators'
  keyless GBFS 2.3 feeds, both listed in MobilityData's systems catalogue.
- gbfs.nextbike.net joins the proxy allowlist as an exact host.
- Credits, DATA_SOURCES, CURRENT-STATE and CHANGELOG updated; a test pins
  each system's proxy reachability and the range check for its outermost
  stations.

 # Changelog
 
+- Add Barcelona's bike share to the GBFS registry: Bicing (543 stations, the
+  city's PBSC system) and AMBici (237 e-bike stations across the metropolitan
+  area, run by nextbike). Both are keyless GBFS 2.3 feeds listed in
+  MobilityData's systems catalogue; AMBici's is CC0. `gbfs.nextbike.net` joins
+  the proxy allowlist. These are the layer's first stations in Spain.
+
 - Add nine Ontario transit feeds: TTC, MiWay, Hamilton HSR, Durham Region,
   YRT/Viva, Guelph, Burlington, Barrie and Kingston, each carrying its own
   licence quote and attribution. A feed can now name its own modes, so Toronto's

Subject: [PATCH 54/89] Make changelog assembly recoverable after a partial
 write

`--write` wrote CHANGELOG.md and then removed fragments one by one, so a
failure after the write left surviving fragments that a rerun spliced in
a second time.

The write is now staged. The assembled file goes into
changelog.d/.assembling/, the fragments are renamed in beside it, and
renaming the assembled file over CHANGELOG.md is the single commit
point. A run that fails rolls itself back when it can; otherwise the next
`npm run changelog` reads the staging directory and either restores the
fragments (assembled file still staged) or deletes the leftovers (batch
landed). `--check` reports a staged batch instead of reporting past it.

A failure-injection test makes every filesystem call in a `--write` fail
in turn, both as a one-off error and as a crash with no in-process
rollback. It asserts the retry produces exactly the uninterrupted
CHANGELOG.md, with each entry once and an empty directory. The test
fails against the previous write-then-delete and against delete-first.

Subject: [PATCH 55/89] test(bikeshare): pin the Barcelona load radii to their
 outermost stations

The map range check floors every radius at 100 km, so the station test
passed with any loadRadiusKm up to that. get_bike_share uses the radius as
registered, so assert each system's radius reaches the stations it lists.

Subject: [PATCH 56/89] fix(bikeshare): drop stations outside a city's load
 radius
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Bogotá's and Santiago's PBSC feeds list depot stations in São Paulo and
Madrid as installed and renting, so activating either city drew live
docks thousands of kilometres away and counted them in the layer total.
Station information is now limited to the city's registered load radius;
every other registered feed already sits inside its radius (checked live
2026-10-16), so nothing else changes.

Adds a Bogotá/Santiago registry test matching the Brazilian and Barcelona
ones: proxy allowlist, outermost-station activation and radius reach, and
the depot filter through the real ingestion path.

Subject: [PATCH 57/89] fix(director): land on the requested shot

A shot action seeks to the target shot's startProgress, which
sceneTimingForShot computes as start / total. sceneSeekState multiplied
that back into seconds and compared it with each shot's end, but
(start / total) * total can round one ulp below start. The comparison
then put the seek at the very end of the previous shot. With five equal
3.9 s shots, "go to" shots 2, 3 and 5 landed on shots 1, 2 and 4.

Compare the requested progress against each shot's end / total instead,
the same division the caller used, so a shot's own start always selects
that shot. Exact boundaries still select the next shot, and anything
below a start still selects the previous one.

Subject: [PATCH 58/89] fix(geo): wrap longitude differences across the
 antimeridian
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The flights ground-floor pipeline subtracted longitudes without wrapping.
approxDistanceKm, and its copy in the mesh-floor sampler, measured two
points 0.2° apart either side of 180° (21 km at Fiji) as about 38,000 km,
so low and grounded aircraft just across the line from the viewer were
never floored or mesh-sampled. corridorFloorCells walked a segment across
180° the long way round, filling its cell budget with ground behind the
contact and never requesting the cells it was about to cross, and
stickyFloorCell dropped its hysteresis for a contact on the seam. Each now
takes the short way round, and corridor points are normalised back into
[-180, 180].

SEARCH NEARBY SITES centred its Google Places search on the mean of west
and east, which for a view across 180° (west > east) is longitude 0, and
sized the radius from the view's height alone. It now measures the view's
width through 180° and searches its real centre.

Subject: [PATCH 59/89] fix(overpass): read failure phrases from the remark,
 not element tags

overpassLooksRuntimeError and overpassLooksRateLimited searched the whole
200 body, element tags included. A result containing a place named
"Timed Out Escape Rooms" (or any tag with "runtime error", "out of
memory", "too many requests" or "rate_limited") was refused as an
upstream failure, and the endpoint was put on cooldown for every other
query.

Parse the body once. A data reply (one with an elements array) reports
failure in its remark, so the phrase checks run on the remark. Any other
body, an error page or JSON without elements, is matched whole as
before.

Subject: [PATCH 60/89] fix(maps): retry the real imagery and terrain provider
 after a fallback

In the keyless setup a single transient failure while loading the default
map layers locked in the degraded fallback until reload.

_getImageryProvider cached the construction-fallback resolution (OSM) under
the Esri stack id, so every later "Esri Satellite" selection showed OSM.
createKeylessTerrain turns any Re:Earth failure into a flat
EllipsoidTerrainProvider; the controller cached it and set _terrainMode to
'keyless', so a boot-time network blip left the globe flat.

Fallbacks are still cached and shown at once, and no switch waits on a
retry. One controller timer now retries the real provider behind whichever
fallback is on screen (Esri's OSM stand-in, or flat terrain on a shown
globe), starting at 30 seconds and doubling to a 10-minute cap while it
keeps failing. A failed retry leaves the cached fallback and the installed
terrain untouched. A success replaces the cache entry and applies it live:
terrain is installed in place with a render request (or, behind a 3D
tileset, picked up by the next globe activation), and Esri is reselected
automatically, after any in-flight switch settles. A switch that read the
flat fallback re-reads the terrain cache before installing, and destroy()
cancels the timer and releases a provider built after it.

The duplicate left `#stack-panel` is retired. The five tiles share one row on desktop and two rows on narrow screens, carry `aria-pressed` on the active source, and remain keyboard-reachable with a visible focus outline.
 - The lit tile follows controller state, not the click: a rejected switch (no ion token) or a superseded one (rapid A→B) leaves the genuinely active source lit, and the tray heading keeps its short-label status readout (`...` while switching, amber on `lastError`).
 - Ion stacks remain visible and keyboard-focusable when no ion token is configured, but expose `aria-disabled="true"` and do not switch. Their accessible label and tooltip quote `getStacks().unavailableReason` — the same string `setStack()` puts in the toast. OSM works keyless. The `ION` badge is gated on the stack's own `requiresIon`, so a `photoreal` chip unavailable because the Google tileset failed says so instead of falsely demanding an ion token.

Subject: [PATCH 61/89] fix(military): hold the last track and speed when a
 poll omits them

MilitaryFlightRecords coerced a missing course to 0 (`courseDeg || 0`)
and a missing speed to 0 (`speedMps ?? 0`) before stickyNumber, so the
hold-last-known-good merge never ran. When an adsb.lol row arrived
without `track` or `gs`, the aircraft's icon swung to north and the
position history got a 0 kt / 0 degree fix, so dead reckoning stopped
or turned it north. The civil FlightRecords holds the last value for
the same input.

Pass the raw values to stickyNumber, with 0 as the fallback only until a
value is known, as before. A grounded row without a speed still reads
0, so a parked aircraft doesn't coast at its landing speed.

Fixes the P1 and the confirmed P2 findings of the final review of the
i18n branch.

- CI: the air-quality model no longer imports i18n (portable module),
  so check:boundaries passes again.
- Air quality layer: named in the layer panel, HUD and voice; its
  Weather card, bands and errors translate. A test keeps the layer-name
  table in step with the layer registry.
- Layer statuses that still reached ru/es in English: GNSS, CelesTrak,
  Transit loading and feed errors, launches, perimeters, ALPR, ECCC,
  wind "field unavailable", Local ADS-B streaming lines.
- Voice and HUD: preset ids show city names ("Fly to San Francisco"),
  the HUD city translates, cockpit refusals cover frame, aircraft and
  satellite; empty Transit notes translate on the analyst card.
- tn() keeps a caller's formatted count ("12,345 map objects").
- Cyber HUD: the language button no longer covers the bottom-right
  card or the cockpit position readout.
- CCTV buttons wrap only in non-English locales; English layout matches
  main again.
- Switching language asks first when Provider Settings holds unsaved
  keys.

Catalogs: es/ru 2611 messages each, complete.

Subject: [PATCH 63/89] Revert hiding vessel detection callouts under ambient
 cards

The vessels layer hid the detection callout for every vessel whose card
it published to the world overlay. The overlay paints only part of the
published cards (shared budget, collisions, UI chrome), so vessels whose
card was dropped lost all their text: with 60 vessels and Detection on,
21 showed only an arrow. Back to main's behaviour: the callout always
draws. Hiding it only under a painted card is HAL-628.

The translated speed unit in the callout stays.

Subject: [PATCH 64/89] i18n: fix the repeat-review findings

- Status pieces translate in one place (src/ui/statusText.js): a Local
  ADS-B error with a single piece now translates, and the analyst card
  splits empty-layer notes into pieces (Transit, Local ADS-B).
- Translate the ALPR retry chip text, the ECCC error on the Air quality
  card, "Upstream response too large" and the "entry {n}" feed label.
- The unmarked-text check also sees error/loadingLabel/statusMessage/
  status assignments, `status:` properties and showToast?.( /
  this._showToast( calls; the scene import preview marks its pack
  statuses, data and model-facing text carry i18n-ignore with a reason.
- Tests check the real code: the HUD locality formatter moves to
  src/hudLocalityFormat.js, the unsaved-keys test pins the teardown.
- One copy each: city names come from src/cityPois.js, the GNSS HTTP
  template and wind "field unavailable" texts; dead fallbacks removed.
- Leftovers of the reverted vessel-label change and the reformatting of
  detectionHost.test.mjs / keySetup.test.mjs are back to main.

Catalogs: es/ru 2617 messages each, complete.

Subject: [PATCH 65/89] fix(sdr): bound decoder work and stabilize FM playback

Keep USB reads in a bounded ordered pipeline, acknowledge and cap decoder
work, terminate stopped workers, and buffer short playback jitter. Throttle
display telemetry and compute spectra only while seeking.

Preserve PR #1174's wrapped seeking and fresh-spectrum tagging. Add opt-in
bounded timing diagnostics and decoder/playback lifecycle regressions.

+  band edges, skips the starting station and rejects spectra from an earlier
+  tune (Aditya, @Rohilalala, #1174).
+- Local RTL-SDR keeps USB reads queued in order and bounds pending decoder
+  work. A stalled or overloaded decoder stops with an explicit error; stopping
+  terminates its worker and rejects late audio. FM playback buffers short
+  scheduling gaps, caps its audio queue at 256 ms, and reduces display updates
+  and spectrum calculations while listening.
+
 - Add Bogotá (Tembici, 250 stations) and Santiago de Chile (Bike Itaú, 200
   stations) to the GBFS bikeshare registry, the layer's first stations in
   Colombia and Chile. Both are PBSC feeds like the Brazilian Bike Itaú cities,

+- **FM seek.** Seeking wraps across 87.5–108 MHz, covers both band edges and
+  skips the starting station. Spectra carry a decoder epoch, so a retune or mode
+  change rejects earlier output. A failed scan retune stops seeking. This
+  integrates Aditya's (@Rohilalala) contribution in #1174; it does not change
+  the peak-selection algorithm or guarantee that a final station retune succeeds.
+- **Streaming and playback.** Four ordered USB reads keep input available while
+  the page handles other work; control changes drain those reads before touching
+  the receiver. The worker must finish loading before reads start. Decoder work
+  is limited to eight unacknowledged blocks / 512 KiB, with a one-second oldest
+  block watchdog. Overload stops the receiver with an explicit error. Stop
+  terminates the worker immediately and disables the audio session; stale decoder
+  output and audio from retired sessions are refused. FM audio starts after an
+  80 ms prebuffer and retains at most 256 ms, dropping the oldest frames on
+  overflow. FM signal display updates are coalesced to at most four per second;
+  spectra are computed only while seeking. Optional `decoderDiagnostics` adds
+  bounded timing samples and overload snapshots without recording audio or IQ.
 - **Modes.** FM (87.5–108 MHz, tune, seek, volume) or ADS-B at 1090 MHz.
   With a receiver open, selecting ADS-B enables the Local ADS-B layer;
   selecting FM disables it.

Subject: [PATCH 68/89] i18n: fix the LGTM review findings and tidy the branch
 texts

- i18n scanner: lastError sink, no false sinks on defaults and ternaries
- shared src/i18n/marker.js for modules that only mark strings
- wind field messages move to wind/fields.js; CITY_POIS imports from cityPois.js
- drop review IDs, change history and stale references from comments and docs

+A module the server, tools or other portable code also imports must not load the catalogs: it imports `msg` from `src/i18n/marker.js`, which only marks the text, and the UI translates it with `t()` where it shows it. (Older modules keep a local `const msg = (text) => text`, which works the same.)

 `msg()` exists for two reasons. `npm run i18n` finds messages only as string literals inside `t(…)`, `tn(…)` and `msg(…)`, so `t(FEED_STATE_LABELS[state])` alone tells it nothing. And a `t()` call at module load runs before the page has picked its language, so it would freeze the English.

Subject: [PATCH 70/89] fix(perimeters): handle antimeridian queries and
 incident card anchors

Rebase #1142 onto current main, keeping both sides of the changelog and runtime documentation conflicts. Retain unwrapped containment and circular query coordinates.

Address review feedback on perimeterAnchorDegrees: use circular longitude for the selected outer ring, excluding its closing duplicate. Compare multipart areas along short longitude edges so a small dateline part cannot steal the card anchor from a larger polygon.

Three new card regressions fail before the fix and pass afterward. Coverage includes reversed/rotated rings, vertices at +/-180 and both multipart selection directions. Local validation: 43 focused tests; full suite 7,636 passed, one skipped, zero failures; production build, formatting, module boundaries and whitespace checks pass on Node 24.19.0. Browser tracking validation follows on the QA branch.

+- Fire-perimeter queries handle outlines and holes crossing the antimeridian:
+  areas enclosed near ±180° are included, areas at the opposite meridian are
+  excluded, and returned perimeter coordinates stay near the dateline. Incident
+  cards use the same circular longitude mean and compare multipart outline
+  areas along short longitude edges, keeping the card on the largest polygon.
+
 - Local FM seek finds stations after wrapping around 87.5–108 MHz, covers both
   band edges, skips the starting station and rejects spectra from an earlier
   tune (Aditya, @Rohilalala, #1174).

+Fire-perimeter queries test polygon interiors and holes on continuous unwrapped
+longitudes, matching the short-edge convention used for boundary intersections.
+An outline crossing ±180° contains nearby boxes and radius areas without also
+containing their counterparts near Greenwich. Returned perimeter coordinates
+use a circular mean for longitude, including multipart outlines. Incident cards
+also use a circular longitude mean over the largest outer ring (excluding its
+repeated closing vertex). Their relative-area comparison follows short longitude
+edges so a small dateline-crossing part cannot outweigh a larger ordinary part.

 aircraft bands (#1115)

aircraft_in_area compared a nullable altitude, so a contact with neither barometric nor geometric altitude matched max_altitude_m as though it were at zero. Require a reported finite altitude only when a band is requested; unfiltered queries keep the contact.

Selecting `CONTACTS` enables the context-owned Flights, Military Flights, AIS Vessels, and Mapped Installations dependencies only when they are not already user-enabled; selecting `SPACE MISSIONS` enables the recent-launch layer and its Satellite dependency. `CONTACTS` cycles the nearest supported contact of whatever type is selected.

 - If a civilian or military aircraft is already tracked when `CONTACTS` becomes operational, that source-owned track is adopted as the Context subject before nearest-contact autofocus. Context rechecks the tracker after its dependencies settle, so a newer selection wins, while an explicit clear during activation prevents fallback from silently selecting a replacement. Cockpit entry remains unavailable until that Context transaction has settled, so its camera takeover cannot clear Cesium tracking before adoption. Adoption does not recreate tracking or transfer camera ownership; it initializes the normal 250 km ring, history, proximity results, and Cockpit Previous/Next state for the original aircraft.
-- `SEARCH NEARBY SITES` retains the bounded OSM results and makes one user-initiated, view-biased Google Maps Places text search for “military installation.” Google results are source-stamped, deduplicated against OSM by rounded location/name, and remain mapped context rather than operational claims. If Places is unavailable or the API is not enabled for the supplied key, OSM context remains available.
+- `SEARCH NEARBY SITES` retains the bounded OSM results and makes one user-initiated, view-biased Google Maps Places text search for “military installation.” Google results are source-stamped, deduplicated against OSM by rounded location/name, and remain mapped context rather than operational claims. If Places is unavailable or the API is not enabled for the supplied key, OSM context remains available. A view across the antimeridian is searched around its own centre, with a radius from its real width.
 - The expanded desktop header omits the redundant `ON` label; the active mode button carries state. Expanded Contact results also omit the duplicate `GLOBAL CONTEXT` / `CONTEXT ONLY` status row and begin with the selected subject and its 250 km scope. Global Context does not fabricate a selected-entity model preview: the provisional hand-authored aircraft wireframe was removed because it was not geometry extracted from the selected entity's actual asset.
 - Dependency ownership is reversible: disabling Global Context releases only dependencies it enabled, while user-enabled layers remain on. This also removes the Military-layer suppression handoff when Global Context owned Military, allowing an already-enabled civilian Flights layer to resume its normal mixed rendering. If OpenSky is unavailable and has no last-good cache, Flights requests a capped 250 nm adsb.lol point snapshot around the current view anchor and labels that provenance explicitly; it never relabels military-feed rows as civilian data. If both inputs fail, Flights remains `UNKNOWN`.
 - Space Missions is replay-isolated: Rocket Launches and Satellites are the only Data Layers permitted while the mode is active. Direct UI and voice entry capture the same pre-entry snapshot; internal dependency and restoration enables do not create a user-owned Context session. Entry waits for incompatible layers to shut down, direct incompatible enables are blocked before lifecycle work, and the entry gate remains active through the complete Rocket Launches enable. A newer same-target ON request takes ownership of the pending entry without releasing its isolation snapshot, including when it arrives while the prior request is awaiting the adoption guard. A caller abort, resource cancellation, newer OFF, or layer teardown waits for exact manager settlement and restores that snapshot without resurrecting Rocket Launches. If an abort lands after only part of a restore settles, Context completes the same exact target without the stale caller signal and then replays newer explicit layer intent. Dedicated Voice Context cancellation reports a stable cancelled result plus the current Context state; generic layer visibility additionally exposes manager phase, reason, successor, and lifecycle details. Once an exact voice visibility intent commits, a newer voice turn cannot relabel it as cancelled while Context settlement completes; pre-commit aborts remain cancellable and final lifecycle mismatches remain failures. Clear Selected Layers reserves its complete captured OFF set before sequential teardown; a newer absolute request of any origin supersedes only its layer reservation and remains authoritative. A rejected layer teardown retains the truthful enabled state, rolls already-stopped siblings back to the captured pre-entry set, and aborts replay; rapid exit/re-entry serializes the full Satellite enabled-state and parameter restore before a new snapshot is taken. Contacts remains additive and restores user-enabled layers normally.

Subject: [PATCH 80/89] fix(setup): stop Node's DEP0190 warning when npm runs
 on Windows (#1057)

Windows runs npm.cmd through a shell, and passing an argument array with `shell: true` is deprecated in Node 24 (DEP0190). Every `npm run doctor` and every Pinokio install on Windows printed the warning. npmProcessSpec now takes the npm arguments and, on Windows, joins them into the command string; the arguments are fixed subcommands (`--version`, `ci`). Unix behavior is unchanged.

Subject: [PATCH 81/89] Move the #971 tests into the director suite and add the
 changelog fragment

The standalone director971.test.mjs rebuilt the browser, storage and viewer
doubles that director.test.mjs already provides. Its cases now live in the
director suite on makeDirector/installSceneRuntime, which gains optional
seeded storage entries and a quota-full switch; existing tests are unchanged.
The checkpoint and failed-save-status cases are split so each fails on its own.

Subject: [PATCH 82/89] fix(street-level): release superseded and unmounted
 Google viewer work (#1117)

A superseded open wait cleared the shared cancelShown slot that belonged to the newer wait, leaving its auth listener and timer alive after close; open() now settles the previous wait first. A lookup whose viewer unmounted while the Street View service loaded still sent a billed getPanorama; describe() now rechecks the lookup after acquisition.

Subject: [PATCH 83/89] fix(recent-imagery): scroll the DETAILS card into view
 when it opens (#970)

renderDetails() revealed the card inside render(), whose preserveScroll() wrapper restored the previous scrollTop in its finally block, undoing the reveal. The reveal now runs in the DETAILS open handler after render() returns, once per opening; closing and refreshes do not scroll.

@@ -4846,7 +4846,7 @@ pins and share links already supply complete boxes.
 - **Modes, pins and the preview.** The mode is explicit: `image` (one pinned day, slot `a`), `basemap` (that day on the left of a swipe, the basemap on the right: slot `a` splits LEFT and there is no second layer) and `ab` (day `a` left, day `b` right). `setAssignment(slot, key | null)` / `toggleAssignment(slot, key)` pin and unpin; a day is in one slot at most (pinning it in the other slot moves it) and an empty day cannot be pinned. `setMode()` keeps both pins; `b` only drapes in `ab`. While the mode's first empty slot exists the focused day previews in it: a click at once, arrow keys after 250 ms of quiet (`FOCUS_DEBOUNCE_MS`, one timer, last day wins); an unprobed day is followed and previews when its probe says present, an empty or unknown day never drapes and the previous preview stays. A pin change drops the preview until focus moves again, and unpinning takes that layer off at once. `rankLatest` picks START HERE coverage first (a present HLS day whose footprints cover the box, or have none, beats a newer sliver), then newest with all granules ≤ 20% known cloud, then newest; slivers only as `partial`; else the newest non-empty VIIRS day; it is focused and previewed after each search when nothing is pinned. Escape clears the preview (`clearPreview()`), then cancels the box tool, then blurs — with SELECT BOX armed too, through the tool's `onEscape` interceptor wired in `createApplicationTools`. Pins, mode, box and split changes made in the panel are published with `adoptLayerParams`, never while a share link is being applied.
 - **Rendering.** `rendering.js` owns at most two GIBS layers on the host `src/maps/imageryHost.js` resolves: `viewer.imageryLayers` while the globe shows, the photoreal tileset's `imageryLayers` while it is hidden, or none (the panel says so). Layers are rebuilt on a new host, never re-parented. `MapSourceController.subscribe()` fires after every settled stack switch (silent switches and fallbacks included) and the layer rebinds on it. Tile requests pass a six-slot semaphore of our own (Cesium's global limits are untouched). Under `requestRenderMode` a deferred tile needs a later frame, but a deferral must never request one itself or a stalled tile keeps the scene rendering every frame: a request that finds the semaphore full asks for nothing (the settling request asks for one frame), and a tile Cesium itself deferred goes through one coalesced 250 ms retry. Thumbnails: three fetches at once, sixteen decoded images, least-recently-used where a `get` read is never a use; eviction keeps the probe result. The strip's visible window is probed around the focused card; the pinned and previewed days are probed wherever they sit, at the focused card's priority, so a pin restored or assigned off-screen still drapes.
 - **Esri surface and the swipe.** While any image is on the map (a preview included) the layer holds the map lease (`acquireImageryComparison`, owner `recent-imagery`, `esri-if-photoreal`): on Google 3D the map switches to Esri, because 30 m pixels over 3D buildings do not read, and Cesium's split only works on the globe. The lease is handed back, and Google 3D restored unless the operator changed maps meanwhile, when the last image leaves the map or the layer is disabled; the notice line says so while it holds. While a day is shown the imagery keeps Esri: a manual switch that lands on Google 3D is answered at once with a new lease under the same policy (`keepEsri`), the notice reads `Imagery stays on Esri · CLEAR to use Google 3D`, and the divider never suspends because of a map switch. It re-leases once per switch generation and only for a manual one (`MapSourceController#getSwitchOrigin()` is `manual` for an outside `setStack`, `automatic` for the controller's own fallback or recovery), never for the lease's own switch and never while releasing, so CLEAR and disable still return to Google 3D; a lease another owner holds stays refused. When Esri fails and the controller falls back to Google 3D on its own, the layer lets the lease go without restoring anything, both days drape on the tileset without a swipe and the guidance reads `Esri map unavailable · no swipe`; only the next manual switch to Google 3D takes Esri again, so a failing Esri map is never retried in a loop. Switching between globe stacks (Esri, OSM, Bing) only rebinds. On a tileset host both images drape without a swipe. The split control (`createImagerySplit`, labels A / B, or IMAGE / BASEMAP) exists only while a swipe is live, recentres on every new comparison (not while scrubbing the second day), except once for a split restored from a link. There is no keyboard shortcut (Space is the app's push-to-talk): SWAP (`#ri-swap`, in the controls row, its slot reserved and the button disabled while no swipe is live) trades the two sides, A to the right and B to the left, or the image to the right of the basemap, and a second click restores; the hint reads `Drag the divider · SWAP trades sides`. The swap is not in the share link, and every new comparison starts unswapped. One opacity applies to both drapes. Another owner holding the lease is reported and the images still drape.

Row chips: `MORE DETAIL · 30 m` (on) and `DAILY OVERVIEW · 250 m` (off).
 - Regression surface: the colocated `*.test.mjs` beside each module (shared doubles in `src/layers/recentImagery/testDoubles.mjs`; `src/ui/recentImagery.test.mjs` includes a DOM-structure guard: every control keeps its place in the tree, nothing is hidden, and every fixed-height block keeps the class the stylesheet fixes its height by; it has no layout, so it cannot see movement), `src/ui/layerPanel.test.mjs` (mount), `src/maps/controller.test.mjs` (`subscribe`), `src/data/layerState.test.mjs` (codec), `src/sharelink.celestial.test.mjs` (panel token), and the live gate `scripts/qa-recent-imagery.mjs`, which also measures every control's rect, relative to the panel, across the transitions within 1 px; that measurement is the real layout-shift check. `QA_RECENT_IMAGERY_SLOW_RENDER=1` gives loaded software renderers a 4 s zoom deadline and an 8-sample stability tail; the default stays 2 s and 12 samples.

Subject: [PATCH 86/89] Keep fallback retries single-flight and recover imagery
 and terrain independently

An activation that re-showed a fallback while a retry was in flight armed a
second timer, so two retries could run at once and land out of order, leaving
the cache and the screen on different providers. Retries now run one at a
time; a request made meanwhile re-arms once the current one ends, and a
result that is obsolete or no longer wanted is disposed.

Imagery and terrain retries are now handled as each settles, so a stalled
terrain attempt no longer keeps recovered imagery off screen, or the reverse.

Subject: [PATCH 87/89] Bound fallback retry attempts with a deadline

An Esri or keyless terrain attempt that never settled kept the single-flight
retry open forever, so neither provider was retried again. Each attempt now
counts as failed after 60 seconds and the retry backs off as usual; its
signal is aborted, and a provider that lands after the deadline is released
rather than installed or cached.

CURRENT-STATE now says only the construction fallback to OSM is retried, not
the switch made after repeated Esri tile failures.

Subject: [PATCH 88/89] Release attempt timers on destroy and the replaced
 fallback terrain

destroy() now expires every retry attempt in flight, clearing its deadline
timer and aborting its signal at once rather than when the attempt settles,
and leaves no retry marked as running.

A successful terrain retry overwrote the cached fallback without releasing
it. The replaced fallback is now disposed as soon as the real terrain takes
its place on screen, or, when it stayed installed behind a 3D tileset, once
the next globe activation replaces it.

Subject: [PATCH 89/89] fix(tools): identify historical camera fallback imagery
 (#1118)

The CCTV frame proxy marks a Street View fallback with X-CCTV-Source, but the portable source dropped the header and get_cctv_snapshot always reported a current view credited to the camera's agency. The source now keeps the recognised provenance, and the tool labels Street View frames as historical Google imagery, refuses synthetic placeholders, and reports unknown provenance without claiming a current view.

 Node-only package entries expose both provider factories. Routes, payloads,

+The portable frame source retains the proxy's known `X-CCTV-Source` kind. Camera
+snapshot tools label Street View fallback imagery as historical and credit Google,
+while upstream frames retain their current-view label and catalog attribution.
+Synthetic placeholders are unavailable as snapshots. Injected frame sources may
+supply `sourceKind`; missing or unknown provenance keeps `current_view` null and
+does not claim the image is current. The `current_view` field distinguishes camera-feed
+provenance from historical fallback imagery; it does not measure capture time or
