Add find_submarine_cables over the bundled TeleGeography data: cables
passing through or landing in an area, or matching a name, with landing
points and the dataset's attribution. The local MCP server's fetch reads
the bundled data files a browser would load by URL, and nothing outside
that directory.
Move the composition of the default tool services from the Node MCP
server into gods-eye-view/tools/services, a portable export. Given a
fetch that resolves the sources' /api paths, it builds the same services
in a browser as on the local MCP server, so other surfaces can compose
the same catalog. Queries still read only their services.
Mount the local MCP server at /mcp on the development and preview
servers for clients that connect by URL. The route accepts only
requests from this machine that name a loopback host and, when an
Origin is sent, come from a loopback origin, and drains oversized
bodies so the 413 response is delivered. The provider-order regression
test now pins the route between the providers and the API fallback.
Add open_in_gods_eye_view. It builds a version 2 share link looking
straight down on an area, with altitude chosen from the area's size, on
the app address the application supplies.
Add get_traffic_flow over the traffic source's TomTom flow tiles. It
reports average speed as a share of free-flow speed, congested and
closed road length, and a breakdown by road category, stepping down a
zoom level when an area needs more tiles than the source reads at once.
Add vessels_in_area, find_vessel and get_vessel_track over the live
vessel source, and a ships section in situation_brief. Without an AIS
key the source's own message reaches clients as an unavailable feed.
Add get_weather, get_regional_brief, get_cyclones, get_fire_perimeters,
get_terrain_height, find_military_installations and get_map_features
over the application request services and the layers' sources.
situation_brief combines weather, earthquakes, fires, aircraft and
cyclones for an area by reusing those tools, marking sections that are
unavailable instead of failing. get_hud_caption returns the app's
heads-up display caption for the same overview.
Add get_bike_share over the public GBFS systems and get_transit_vehicles
over the GTFS-Realtime feeds. Each finds the systems or feeds whose
coverage reaches the area, reads up to three, and reports any that were
unavailable instead of failing the whole answer. Transit results carry
each feed's attribution and license.
Add search_places and places_nearby over the app's Google Places routes,
and plan_route over its OpenStreetMap routing. The place search service
reports when no search key is configured, so an unconfigured server is
not mistaken for an empty result, and rate limits become retry_later.
Route endpoints accept a place name or coordinates.
Add find_cctv_cameras, get_cctv_snapshot and find_radio_stations. A
snapshot returns the camera's current frame as image content with its
credit. Tool results may now carry base64 images, which the MCP adapter
sends as image content.
Add aircraft_in_area, find_aircraft, get_aircraft_track and
get_aircraft_info over the live aircraft sources, with an optional
military feed, and next_satellite_pass and satellites_overhead over the
satellite catalog and the existing pass predictor.
Source failures from the live contract now become tool errors with the
matching code, so a rate limit reaches clients as retry_later with a
wait time. Tool schemas may use pattern.
Define tools that answer questions from the app's data once, independent
of the surface that exposes them. A tool declares its arguments and the
services it reads; applications compose tools with their own services and
optional call interceptors. Queries reuse the layers' portable source
factories, so they run wherever an application routes /api requests.
The first queries are get_earthquakes, get_active_fires and
get_recent_launches, with a shared area argument (place name, bounding
box, or point and radius) and capped lists.
gods-eye-view/tools/mcp adapts a catalog to the Model Context Protocol
with a small JSON-RPC handler and a stateless HTTP transport, adding no
dependencies. npm run mcp serves Core's tools over stdio to local clients
such as Claude Code, reading from a running app. Both exports are
portable and checked by check:boundaries; the app does not import them.
Traffic roads come from OpenFreeMap vector tiles, or TomTom flow tiles with a
key (Hybrid by default). Military areas use OpenFreeMap polygons with a bundled
worldwide name index; wide views show named points. ALPR reads an hourly
OpenStreetMap extract. Cockpit place context and country, state and US county
outlines use bundled Natural Earth and US Census data. Overpass is used only
when an operator configures their own endpoint.
Also: camera arrivals no longer land below ground, keyless terrain retries on
429, bounded relation geometry for configured Overpass, one shared
OpenStreetMap credit, and separate tile and API transports for embedders.

Keep the new 502, but store it in the 60 s cache as the proxy already does
for 404/429: /tracks/all costs OpenSky credits, so an oversized track must
not be re-downloaded on every reselect. Update the regression test and
credit the fix in CHANGELOG.

Adds a Local ADS-B layer fed by your own receivers: a browser WebUSB
RTL-SDR (with FM listening) and local 1090/978 MHz decoder feeds
(LOCAL_RECEIVER_FEEDS, local and private addresses only). Local aircraft
draw in magenta with class, silhouettes, 3D models, trails and a position
sanity filter; the click card names the band and input that heard them.
Builds on Sameh Khamis's SDR prototype and the initial GEV port by
Mazeyar Moeini Feizabadi (#134); the decoder-feed design follows the
notes on #57. Closes#57.

The macOS credential hardener strips ACLs with `chmod -N`, spawning
`chmod` by bare name. On machines where Nix home-manager or Homebrew
coreutils sit ahead of /bin on PATH, that resolves to GNU chmod, which
has no `-N` flag and exits non-zero. The hardener treated that as a
failure and refused every save from the Provider Settings panel with
"could not restrict the credential file to your account; nothing was
saved".
Spawn /bin/chmod by absolute path instead, matching how the Windows
branch already resolves its native tools without consulting PATH, and
add a regression test that pins the absolute path.
The media relay only deadlined the wait for upstream response headers. Once
headers arrived the timer stopped, so an upstream that answered and then sent
nothing held both the client response and the upstream socket open for as long
as the camera host allowed. The declared Content-Length ceiling was the only
body bound, and a chunked or length-less body had none.
A 30-second idle deadline now measures the gap between upstream chunks and
tears the stream down through the existing release path. Because a paused pipe
also stops upstream bytes arriving, the deadline reschedules itself whenever
the response is still waiting to drain, so a viewer on a slow link is not read
as a dead camera. Live feeds that keep delivering frames are unaffected.
TOMTOM_DAILY_TILE_BUDGET defaulted to 40,000 per day against a free
tier that is granted per MONTH, not per day. TomTom currently allows
200,000 Traffic Flow & Incidents tile requests per month
(https://docs.tomtom.com/pricing/), so the default exhausted a user's
entire monthly allowance in five days and left the traffic layer dead
for the rest of the billing period.
The docs contradicted themselves on this. traffic.js described the
free tier as "~50k/day", while .env.example cited the correct 200K
per month two lines below quoting the same 40,000 default. 50k/day
would be 1.5M/month, 7.5x the actual allowance.
Sets the default to 6,000/day. A 31-day month lands at 186,000,
inside the allowance with headroom. Corrects the stale figures in
traffic.js, .env.example and DATA_SOURCES.md.
This remains an application-side safety ceiling, not a billing cap,
and the surrounding text still says so. TomTom's free tier requires
no card, so overrunning it cuts the layer off rather than generating
a charge — but a layer that dies three weeks into every month is
still worth avoiding by default.

ITU-R M.1371 encodes speed over ground in 0.1-knot units and course over
ground in 0.1-degree units, reserving the top code of each field for "not
available": SOG 1023 reaches us as 102.3 knots and COG 3600 as 360 degrees.
Both are finite, so numberValue passed them through as ordinary readings and
every consumer — vessel cards, the HUD, voice analyst queries — treated a
missing measurement as a real one.
Observed on a live AISStream feed of 3,062 vessels: exactly 3 records at
102.3 knots with no reading anywhere between 40 and 102.3, and 404 records
at exactly 360 degrees. One Dutch rescue boat moored at its station carried
both sentinels at once, so an analyst summary reported a maximum speed of
102.3 knots — faster than any vessel afloat.
Filter both at the store, where AISStream messages are decoded, so the
sentinels never enter the cache. Heading already had this treatment through
normalizedHeading with its own separate sentinel of 511.

The comment claimed "Keep the detail in the log" while the line it introduces
carries none, so the next reader would have read the omission as an oversight
and added the errno back.
Detail-free is the deliberate choice: a media-fetch failure names the camera's
upstream host, and these lines get pasted into issues. Say that, and say why
the catch at the bottom of this file may still log its error text.
Supersedes #218 by @spcpza, ported onto the current component layout with fixes from review.
Verified before merge: format, package boundaries, unit suite, build, and the browser tracking suite; a browser harness for the change where one applies; adversarial review applied.
Contributor: @spcpza. His original commit is the base of this branch, and his own re-port onto main (2026-09-15, `5b69011`) was consulted while finishing the height work. That port reads every vehicle's surface from the app's shared ground-floor system (`cachedGroundFloor` / `warmGroundFloor` / `GROUND_FLOOR_LIFT_M`) rather than sampling the scene per layer, keeps a vehicle hidden until its cell answers, warms a bounded batch per poll on a timer instead of per frame, and renders at the ellipsoid above the altitude gate. That is the sounder primitive — one floor system for the app, with the rooftop-versus-street question already settled against a datum-correct DEM prior — and this branch's height work was rebuilt on it, replacing a bespoke cell cache, ground prior and rooftop rule written here. Credit for that direction is his.
Future work (not in this PR), both written up in docs/CURRENT-STATE.md:
- Readable route names. The realtime feeds carry only `route_id`; `route_short_name` / `route_long_name` live in each operator's static GTFS `routes.txt`, and headsigns in `trips.txt`. Doing it properly wants a server-side metadata loader beside the transit proxy with fixed registered static sources, bounded indexes built once and persisted, a slow conditional refresh, and a versioned route dictionary the browser caches. Shipped here: ids are never rewritten, and a cut one carries an ellipsis instead of reading as a typo.
- Below-ground rendering. Subway vehicles are drawn on the surface directly above themselves, because the feeds carry no depth and a train nobody can see is not worth drawing; the card says so plainly. Real treatment wants OSM tunnel geometry per city and a ghosted sprite tethered to the surface. The owner recorded it and left it.
Round four and after (2026-09-15). The owner tested round three under FLIR and NVG, and then asked for the design to be taken further: elegant in performance, beautiful on camera, trails with a cache for public transport, Cesium-native, and a core other moving layers can adopt. Codex Astra reviewed the plan (it confirmed the speed fault: a glide started from the drawn position at receipt time but spanned the gap between report times, so with MBTA reporting every ~10 s against a 15 s poll every second glide ran at 1.5x; it rejected a queued-segment patch), then wrote the design, then implemented it in commit-sized passes with adversarial review between them and real-browser harness runs by the integrator.
What this PR now contains beyond the contributor's original port:
- Delayed playback in a contact-agnostic core (`src/data/contactPlayback.js`): each vehicle keeps a typed, bounded fix history and a display clock that runs at one second per second through it, a feed-derived lag behind real time, holding at its newest fix rather than extrapolating and never sprinting to catch up. Marker, course, motion word, card and trail all read the same displayed sample. The clock has an explicit time-offset and seek API so a rewind is a later feature, not a rewrite; flights and vessels are untouched.
- A selected-vehicle trail (`src/data/contactTrailRenderer.js`, `src/layers/transit/trails.js`): the retained history drawn with batched Cesium primitives, clipped at display time so the head is exactly the sprite, faded by age, in the mode colour (white under sensor presets), on the same surface path as the marker.
- Bounded proxy-side history (`server/providers/transitHistory.js`): fifteen minutes and at most 128 fixes per vehicle with hard byte ceilings, MBTA only for now (opt-in per feed), served by a small endpoint that never fetches upstream, so a selected trail survives a browser reload while the server keeps running.
- Scene work bounded to what is visible and moving, an occluder, cached DETECT candidates, holds on the render loop only while something visible moves.
- Sensor presets: white-hot haloed sprites under NVG/FLIR/noir (black-hot inverts), saturated mode colours under CRT, per-mode bracket tiers in every theme, the selected card keeping its mode colour.
- A discriminating browser harness (`scripts/qa-transit.mjs`) that samples postRender frames, reads the real card anchor, and measures fleet budgets at 800 and 3,000 vehicles.
Not built, recorded as follow-ups: curated route display names (lowest priority per the owner), fleet-wide tails, route snapping, a rewind UI, adoption of the playback core by flights and vessels.
Verified at merge (2026-09-15 morning): unit suite 3,896 passing, build clean, format and boundary gates clean, tracking regression 109/109, browser harness keyless 200 pass / 0 fail (13 sensor checks unexercised because the live view offered fewer than six isolated sprites; every judged sprite passed), keyed on Google 3D tiles 198 pass with the per-frame allocation gate as the only failure. Follow-ups recorded: the keyed build's playback sampler still allocates per frame (CPU and frame time stay within budget; the 3,000-vehicle metro view sits at a 27.6 ms frame interval against a 25 ms budget), the shared detection overlay's per-paint allocation, friendlier route names, fleet-wide tails, a rewind UI, and adopting the playback core for vessels and flights.

Ported onto the split provider layout: the route now lives in
server/providers/openai/debug-log.js and its state belongs to the handler
the factory returns rather than to module scope.
/api/realtime/debug-log is the one route in its family left unhardened.
Both siblings enforce a limiter through openai/rate-limit.js, and this was
the only handler still writing with fs.appendFileSync on the request path.
- Always-on per-IP limiter (120/min, 400 global). Deliberately not the
opt-in openAiRateLimiter(): that one defaults to unlimited so throttling
cannot silently change what a user spends, and this sink spends disk and
event-loop time rather than provider quota.
- Serialized async appends with a 32 MB rotation ceiling and one retained
generation. REALTIME_DEBUG_LOG_MAX_BYTES caps a single request body; it
never bounded the file those bodies accumulate into, so any local page
could grow .gev-logs/realtime-conversations.jsonl for as long as the dev
server ran. Serializing also closes a read-then-write race on the size
check, where concurrent callers all stat under the ceiling and none
rotates.
- Generic 400/500 answers separating a malformed record or oversized body
from a failed write, instead of echoing error.message — an errno and an
absolute path for an fs failure.
- readRequestBody marks an oversized body with code 'BODY_TOO_LARGE', the
marker its sibling readRequestBodyCapped already sets, so the two cases
are distinguishable without matching on text.
Coverage extends src/tooling/localServices.test.mjs, which already drives
the real handler over a temporary sourceRoot. Both new tests fail on the
previous implementation and pass with this one.
Refs #23. Does not add authentication: these proxies have no auth
mechanism today, so introducing one is a maintainer design decision.
Ported onto the split provider layout: the routes now live in
server/providers/openai/{hud-summary,realtime}.js and the camera health
entry in server/providers/cctv.js.
The routes #263 names — celestrak, terrain, adsbdb — were sanitized by
#289. The same defect had moved:
- /api/openai/hud-summary relayed `data.error.message` verbatim on a
non-ok upstream. That is OpenAI's own error text, carrying request ids,
organization hints and quota wording. Its catch echoed the JS error too.
- /api/realtime/token echoed the JS error when minting failed, which for a
network fault is a resolver message naming the upstream host.
- cctvProxy stored the raw error as a camera's health `message`. This is
the least obvious of the three and the reason the PR is worth its size:
GET /api/cctv/health serializes `message`, and src/layers/cctv/frames.js
renders it as the camera's status label, so the detail reached the
screen through a different door than the sanitized 502 beside it.
Logs name the failure and the upstream status without the text, matching
the Launch Library and terrain paths; these lines get pasted into issues.
Coverage extends the existing harnesses rather than adding files —
localServices.test.mjs drives both OpenAI routes over a mocked upstream,
mediaProviders.test.mjs drives a failing media fetch and then reads
/health. All three assertions fail on the previous implementation.
Refs #263. Does not touch /api/realtime/debug-log's identical echo; that
route is the subject of the #23 PR, so the two do not overlap a line.
