Panoramax, the open federated street-level commons, registers beside
Mapillary, Google Street View and KartaView. Its meta-catalogue
(api.panoramax.xyz) is keyless and CORS-open, so it runs in the browser:
- coverage from its vector tiles: sequence lines at z11–14 below 30 km
(longest first under the per-tile cap), and above that the grid layer's
density cells as binned points, not counted as sequences;
- a click on a line opens that sequence's picture nearest the click
(STAC search, any direction), without moving the camera, then any
sequence's if it has none within 50 m; the 360° and since filters go to
the lines and to the API;
- cones from the z15 tiles' pictures layer around the open picture
(~110 bytes a picture, against ~7.5 kB for a STAC item), re-centred when
a picture opens outside them; ‹ › follow the picture's prev/next links;
- the caption names the author (not an account named by an email
address) and the picture's licence (StreetPose `license`), and links to
the picture in the Panoramax viewer; the globe credits Panoramax.
KartaView's viewer becomes the shared photoViewer.js (flat <img>, 360° on
panorama.js, ‹ ›, keyboard, pinch, context loss), driven by a per-provider
PhotoSources table; the request limiter moves to limiter.js. Panoramax shows
the 2,048 px SD derivative and fetches the HD original only when the viewer
is wide enough, once, shrunk while it decodes (never above 8,192 px).
Orange #ff6f00 (Panoramax's own), off by default, share option
0.m.0_0.r.panoramax-1. The MCP panel allows the meta-catalogue and the
biggest instances. Tests: policy, decode, source, viewer, provider, and a
Panoramax fixture in the hermetic browser gate.

- Viewer: resizes while a sharper photo loads start no second load (the
last size is looked at once it lands); decoded bitmaps nobody will draw
(an overtaken preview or upgrade) are closed.
- Cones: a photo opened while the drive's first page loads is the one
they centre on.
- A sequence page that lands while a lost WebGL context recovers keeps
its cones: no pose is emitted without a renderer, and a viewer error
never rejects page data.
- Source: an answer turned away unread (HTTP error, 429, length past the
cap) aborts its request and cancels its body, freeing the connection.
- Gate: findPickPoint no longer picks each centre five times at radius 0,
aims step 13's cone pick at the drawn billboards, and caps each
evaluation at 4 s, resuming from a cursor on the next poll, so a slow
machine cannot spend a whole wait in one evaluation.

Marker and direction (reported on the PR):
- KartaView has its own marker, a purple view cone (Street View's is
blue), not GEV's default pin that Mapillary uses.
- The camera direction (marker, cones, FOLLOW, a panorama's centre) is
the direction of travel to the next photo a few metres on. KartaView's
heading is the device compass: whole drives read 0 (no compass) and
others sit a steady ~110° off. Until the drive loads the compass stands
in (0 = unknown), and the pose is sent again once the course is known.
Remaining P4s from the review of #1121:
- Segment chaining is linear (a per-point cursor) and capped at 20,000
segments a tile and 5,000 points a line: a hostile tile of 60k segments
sharing one point took 1.5 s, now tens of ms.
- Decoded tiles are dropped when KartaView is switched off.
- No network / a refused request says so and is not retried as a timeout;
an unreadable answer says so.
- A docked flat photo skips the 2,560 px download until the viewer grows.
- The panel counts the drive's photos (countActivePhotos), not the thinned
page of cones (2,250, not 217).
- After a GPU reset the viewer redraws the photo itself, so a lookup the
user started is not cancelled; a failure is still reported.
- The gate's keyless page lights KartaView and checks it draws with no key;
the fixture answers the sequence count; the line-click step checks the
camera looks along the drive when the compass says 200°.
- README/CHANGELOG show the share-link form the app writes.

From the IC8 review of #1121 (2 P2, 7 P3; each with a test that fails on
the old code):
P2
- A WebGL context lost while a newer panorama loaded left a black viewer
and a 'successful' open: the panorama now builds on the new canvas (or
falls back to its front view).
- The streaming body read every real answer takes was tested with one
chunk only: answers split mid-character are reassembled; the shared test
fake now streams, so every source test runs the production path.
P3
- Lighting another source by its chip (params) now stops a running lookup
and clears its spinner and error, as setProviderEnabled did; a restore
that changes nothing leaves them alone.
- Panoramas decode off the main thread (ImageBitmap, RGBA upload: ~90 ms →
~15 ms at 4,096 px on a phone-class CPU) and are 2,048 px docked, 4,096
once the viewer grows; a closed viewer keeps a 1×1 texture.
- The lit KARTAVIEW chip label is #8f8aff (~6:1; #635bff was 3.7:1).
- The viewer's keyboard focus ring is drawn above the photo.
- Tests: a second context loss and a drag on the new canvas; the look
direction kept across a loss; a page's 30 s first try.
- The browser gate loses a real WebGL context in the 360° step and checks
the 429 lookup was asked again (the fixture counter is reset first).

Adding the app to a phone home screen produced a blank tile: index.html
linked only an SVG favicon, and Safari ignores SVG for apple-touch-icon,
substituting a screenshot of the page. There was no manifest at all, so
Android had nothing to install against either.
Generate the rasters from public/logo.svg with sharp, which the repo
already carries. The output is committed so a plain `vite build` needs no
image toolchain; re-run scripts/generate-icons.mjs after changing the
logo. The logo's viewBox is wider than it is tall, so each icon centres
the mark on a square #0a0a0f canvas rather than stretching it, inset to
78% normally and 54% for the maskable variant to survive Android's
circular crop.
The SVG favicon stays as the browser tab icon.
A mutation review (91, then 130 mutants) found tests that could not fail
(quick presses with synchronous fakes, a no-flight check with a provider
that never posed), and untested paths. New and rewritten tests kill 123 of
130 mutants; the 7 survivors are equivalent or harmless redraws.
- viewer: held-back loads for quick presses, stale sharp/flat loads,
close mid-load, ends checks for an older photo, WebGL retried per mount,
focus handed back, look direction kept on ›.
- provider: id-ordered pages with out-of-order indexes, page and probe
failures retried, overtaken lookups, cones re-centred on ‹ ›, leftover
imagery filters hide no line or cone, coverage hints, tile cache.
- source: 429 backoff and Retry-After under mock timers, hang timeouts,
the nearest query's parameters. policy: storage-host injection, FOV 360,
longitudes past ±180. panorama: a stub WebGL context (angles, lost
context, re-measuring). lineCoverage.test.mjs: tooHigh hint, passes().
- core: openImage({frame:false}) and openNearest leave the camera
(with a posing provider and a default-open control), KartaView's legend
and wording end to end; viewerHost supportsRenderModes.
- Fixed tick-count waits replaced by an until() poll.
- Browser gate fixture: odd photos archived (409 at storage2, served by
the proxy), the first lookup rate-limited (429, Retry-After: 0); the
line-click step asserts the camera stays and › skips the archived photo.

The fixture gate answers api.kartaview.org, cdn.kartaview.org and
*.openstreetcam.org from fixtures (a drive with a 360° photo, stored on
storage2 while the API names storage1) and adds three steps: keyless
coverage with its credit and hidden filters, a line click opening the
nearest photo with cones and ›, and a 360° photo on the panorama without
FIT / FILL. The Street View share-link check reads the switch field instead
of one exact entry, since a chip click records every provider's switch.
README, DATA_SOURCES, CHANGELOG and CURRENT-STATE describe KartaView.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
Coverage lines from KartaView's z13-14 JSON tiles (OSM ways with photos,
chained end to start), the photo nearest a clicked line, cones along its
sequence, and a viewer for flat photos and 360° panoramas (a small WebGL
equirectangular renderer, no new dependency) with ‹ › along the sequence.
Mapillary's camera-driven line coverage and sequence cones move to the
provider-neutral core (lineCoverage.js, sequenceCones.js) with the tile
fetch, zoom ladder, colours and pick prefixes injected; Mapillary keeps
thin wrappers and its tests pass unchanged.
KartaView quirks handled: api.kartaview.org (the documented
api.openstreetcam.org serves empty tiles), photo URLs that name storage1
for photos stored elsewhere, and a photo API that answers 429 to more than
about three requests at once (two in flight, retried with backoff).

Review on #856 (kvnloo): the analyst projection flattened a 7700 squawk and
the readsb ADS-B emergency field into the same emergency/emergencyKind pair.
- mapAnalystRecord (flights, military) adds emergencySource ('squawk' |
'ads-b' | null, from aircraftEmergency().source), emergencyBroadcast (new
pure emergencyBroadcastPhrase: "broadcasting squawk 7700 (general
emergency)" vs "ADS-B reports general emergency") and observedAtMs (the
record's lastContactEpochMs: last transponder message, epoch ms).
- emergencySource is a queryable analyst text field; the voice payload passes
it and emergencyBroadcast through, and observedAtMs only for aircraft with
a status. Tool description asks the model to narrate with the phrase.
- Source-to-analyst fixture test: OpenSky 7700 vs adsb.lol emergency=general
on squawk 1200 differ in provenance and timestamp; filterable by source.
- Voice tool-payload pins re-derived for the additive description change.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <[email protected]>
- aircraftEmergency: `source` is 'squawk' only when the Mode A code itself
names the status; the Cockpit HUD no longer quotes an unrelated squawk
(e.g. SQUAWK 1200 on an ADS-B `downed` status).
- military: new billboards and the untrack restore use the fleet tint, so an
emergency stays red instead of snapping back to amber; tint helpers take the
record already in hand instead of a second lookup.
- cockpit/cyber CSS: emergency colour via a custom property / theme token,
meta line bolded so the status does not rely on colour alone in the HUD.
- tests: revert Prettier churn in unscoped test files; only semantic edits.
- docs/CURRENT-STATE.md: transponder emergency highlighting section.
- qa-emergency-squawk: (iv) RELEASE check; new files added to format scope.
Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]>
Flights and Military Flights tint aircraft red while the latest poll
carries squawk 7500/7600/7700 or an adsb.lol ADS-B emergency status
(general/unlawful/nordo/downed). Minimum-fuel and lifeguard priorities
are reported but not tinted. The Cockpit HUD aircraft-meta line names
the broadcast code in red. The status is not sticky: a cleared code
stops highlighting on the next refresh.
The analyst/voice query engine gains squawk, emergency and
emergencyKind fields. No new source or request: OpenSky state vectors
already carry the squawk and adsb.lol/readsb carries both fields.

The layer compared the server's fetchedAt with the browser's clock, so a
skewed client clock could shift or void the 30-minute window. The proxy now
returns ageMs (its own now minus fetchedAt, at serve time, on fresh, cached
and stale answers); the source refuses a snapshot without a finite,
non-negative ageMs, and the layer dates rows as its now() - ageMs. fetchedAt
stays in the payload for display.
Tests: proxy cached/stale answers report ageMs on the server clock; the
source rejects missing/invalid/negative ageMs; the layer replay test drives
ageMs. qa-gnss stubs send ageMs.

Re-enabling after a disable longer than the window no longer shows the
old cells until the next refresh. A healthy report arriving 31 minutes
after a degraded one, with no prune in between, starts clean; exactly
30 minutes still counts.
Maintainer review on #855 (mazy1998, 2026-10-06):
- records: presence (seenAt) and degraded evidence (degradedAt) age
separately, so continuing healthy reports no longer keep an older
degraded flag alive past 30 minutes; an aircraft returning after the
window starts fresh. pruneGnssObservations ages the store with no new
rows.
- Rows are dated by the snapshot's fetchedAt, which the proxy keeps on
cached and stale answers: a replay never restarts the window, the
proxy stops serving a stale snapshot older than the window, the source
refuses an undated one, and cells expire during fetch failures and
while there is no view anchor.
- Normalization accepts ADS-B versions 1 and 2 only; a missing, invalid
or negative seen_pos is not a confirmed position from the last minute.
- qa-gnss: keyboard, 390x844 viewport (fresh page: isMobile reloads) and
replay-age sections; the live cell assertion bins the returned rows
with the layer's own rules instead of a raw row count.
Review on #855: the per-aircraft rule (NIC < 7 || NACp < 8, borrowed from
the US 14 CFR 91.227 ADS-B Out minima) is GEV-defined, not gpsjam's, and
gpsjam's map shows low navigation accuracy, not necessarily jamming.
- Primary cell state is now `navigation-integrity-anomaly` (medium/high) or
`nominal`; `suspected-gnss-interference` is a secondary `interpretation`
marked validated: false.
- GNSS_PROVENANCE / gnssProvenance({ windowMs }) records the classifier
(gev-nic-nacp-v1, GEV, unvalidated), the gpsjam aggregation (formula,
bands [0.02, 0.1], FAQ source) and the GEV 30-minute visited-view window,
built from the constants the code applies. Exposed as layer.provenance
and getStats().provenance; the proxy tags responses with `classifier`.
- Visible name "GNSS Integrity", legend "... low accuracy", blurb leads with
low navigation accuracy and states the threshold is a GEV choice.
- Layer id `gnss-interference` and share token `0` unchanged.
- Voice aliases add "gnss integrity", "navigation integrity",
"low navigation accuracy"; the interference aliases stay.
- Docs describe the method as GEV threshold + gpsjam aggregation.
- Tests: provenance object, renamed state/label, proxy classifier tag;
qa-gnss asserts provenance and wording in the real app.

- Route the adsb.lol GNSS source through createReferenceSources and the
constructCatalog contract; app layer module is a thin pass-through.
- Describe the method honestly: gpsjam.org's published cell formula and
bands; per-aircraft thresholds are the 14 CFR 91.227(c) ADS-B Out minima
(NIC < 7, NACp < 8) plus readsb gpsOkBefore.
- Proxy: reuse the adsb.lol anchor parser, honour upstream Retry-After
(clamped 5-120 s), serve stale during cooldown, cap the body size.
- Layer: redraw only when a cell id or band changes, treat a settling
camera as a retry rather than a rejected enable, keep low cells visible,
skip rows without finite coordinates, state the 3-aircraft rule in the
legend blurb.
- Voice: gnss-interference in set_layer_visibility / show_data_layers_menu
plus common aliases; voice pins re-derived.
- qa-gnss: stub the route in-page (request interception stalls Cesium's
geometry workers), assert every cell is built, cover all bands over land
and sea, screenshot every state with the Data Layers row open.

Bins airborne ADS-B v1/v2 aircraft that report degraded navigation
integrity (NIC < 7, NACp < 8, or readsb's GPS-loss flag) into 0.5 degree
cells over a rolling 30-minute window, coloured with the gpsjam.org
bands. Keyless: reads the capped adsb.lol point snapshot around the view
through /api/gnss-integrity, which returns integrity fields only, caches
60 s per whole-degree anchor, backs off on upstream 429 and serves the
last snapshot on failure. Adds scripts/qa-gnss.mjs.

- One provider is lit at a time: lighting a chip darkens the others, and a
chip click records every registered provider's switch in one update so
the share link keeps the swap (also off Google 3D, where Street View is
not listed). The layer starts with the first default-on provider
(Mapillary, free); params that light several keep the one already on,
so reapplying them never flips (litByParams). The now-unreachable
"several lit" chip paths are gone.
- Leaving Google 3D during a Street View lookup ends it without an error
or a stuck loading state (openImage's early return resets it; the
lookup loop rechecks availability).
- A source swap during a lookup no longer reports "no imagery".
- Street View lit off Google 3D says the panel needs the Google 3D map.
- Comments trimmed to the why; keySetupCore.test.mjs back to upstream's
formatting plus the one new test (was a 551-line reformat).

CHANGELOG-only conflict: the bullet stays first under [Unreleased], ahead of
the entries upstream added there. No code changes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
- The chip reads GOOGLE STREET VIEW (and its caption link likewise).
- Providers declare the imagery filters they honour (`filters`, default
pano + since). Street View declares none: every panorama is 360° and it
draws no coverage to thin, so its lookups ignore the filters and the
panel hides IMAGERY and SINCE while it is the only lit provider.
- The legend lists only providers that draw coverage lines, with
Selected only beside one: Street View alone shows no legend.
- Providers may pick their on-globe marker (`marker`); Street View's is a
Google-blue field-of-view cone from a white-ringed dot, in place of
GEV's amber pin, and switches back for a Mapillary photo.

.scene-btn (flex: 1) loads after street-level.css and outranked the
button's flex: 0 0 auto, so with Mapillary and Street View both lit the
button shrank to its 72px minimum and its one-line label ran past the
panel edge. Scope the rule under .sl-meta-row; the coverage line wraps
instead. The live gate gives the share-link check 30 s, as the link is
written only once the view rests.

Register the keyless webcams.nyctmc.org catalog as a live CCTV source,
synthesize frame URLs from validated camera UUIDs, and keep the nearest
cameras to the five borough cores under the existing catalog ceiling.
Conflicts with upstream's Street Level provider composition and share-state
codec, resolved:
- Street View's switch moves from its own share option (`g`) to upstream's
provider-switch field (`r`, e.g. `0.r.google-1`); a link without it keeps
Street View off. Docs and the browser gate follow.
- createApplicationStreetLevel keeps upstream's injectable provider list;
its default, once the application supplies its Street Level source, is
Mapillary plus Google Street View. Without that source there are none, as
upstream intends.
- The coverage hint keeps upstream's empty-composition message and joins
every switched-on provider's hint otherwise.
- CHANGELOG, README and SECURITY keep both sides' entries.

The three mutation gates matched source text that has since moved or been
reflowed, so 37 of their 108 reverts reported STALE and could no longer
prove anything:
- qa-floorhold-mutations (2): the neighbour-floor code moved from
src/data/groundFloor.js into src/services/groundFloor.js (ac977bd).
- qa-flyroute-mutations (8): src/cameraVerbs.js was reflowed by the
formatter (2aca7ae); the anchors now match the formatted lines.
- qa-firstrun-mutations (27): the launcher markup, styles and startup moved
to src/ui/templates/welcome.html, src/ui/styles/first-run.css and
src/app/startupChrome.js; the rail default to panelPositionControls.js and
the radio ESC handling to radioBindings.js (a67bc60 and follow-ups). The
tool-schema pin now edits a tool description, since the context-mode enum
it used to edit no longer lives in tools.js.
Every revert still reintroduces the same defect. Results: floor-hold 22/22,
fly_route 19/19, first-run 67/67 caught, with all source files restored.

Two findings from PoBruno's Docker Engine on Linux run (#208), and one from
re-running the suite in the container after rebasing:
- The launcher pinned its own allowedHosts, including '.local'. Vite reads a
leading dot as a suffix match, so `Host: anything.local` reached the page and
the data proxies. Main has since moved the policy into build/allowedHosts.js,
which drops suffix entries on purpose and applies before the app's routes, so
the launcher's override is deleted rather than patched. As a side effect
GEV_ALLOWED_HOSTS now also works from `.env`, as it does under `npm run dev`.
- A checkout the container cannot write - typically a clone made as root on a
NAS or Proxmox host - made Save Keys answer 500 and never created .gev-cache,
with nothing logged. The launcher now warns at start, naming the owner, the
ids it runs as, and the two fixes.
- On Docker Desktop the bind-mounted repo always shows an owner other than the
container user, so git refuses it as "dubious ownership" and the tests that
shell out to git fail (src/data/bundledJson.test.mjs, new on main). The image
now marks /app, and only /app, as a safe directory.
Verified in a container on this base: `anything.local` 403 on the page and on
/api routes, localhost 200, GEV_ALLOWED_HOSTS honoured from the environment and
from .env, the warning on a root-owned /app run as 1000:1000, and
bundledJson.test.mjs 6/6.

Docker delivers the host's own browser to the container from the container
network's gateway, never from 127.0.0.1, so the loopback-only admission gate
answered every POWER UP request with 403 and no key could be saved. The README
and CHANGELOG claimed otherwise; both are corrected here.
- keySetupCore: GEV_KEY_SETUP_TRUSTED_PEERS, an exact-address list (no
wildcards, prefixes or hostnames) admitted alongside loopback. Unset trusts
nothing, and the sharing, Host, Origin, Content-Type and proxy-header checks
all still apply to a listed address. Twelve assertions pin each refusal.
- scripts/docker-start.mjs: the container entry point, shaped after
scripts/pinokio-start.mjs. It reads the default gateway from /proc/net/route,
trusts exactly that address, and starts Vite. No gateway (--network none)
trusts nothing. The pure helpers are unit-tested and a contract test pins the
Dockerfile CMD and the loopback-only publish.
- Dockerfile: install git. `npm test` builds fixtures with `git init`, so the
suite failed 71 tests inside the image and the README's claim that it runs in
the container was wrong.
- SECURITY.md and .env.example document the setting and why it is safe only
behind a 127.0.0.1 publish; README gains the Linux/NAS id note and .dockerignore
drops macOS AppleDouble sidecars, both reported on the PR.
Verified in Docker on a clean build: saving a key from the panel writes the
bind-mounted .env (0600 in the container), it survives `compose down`/`up`, and
REMOVE comments it back out. A foreign Origin, a foreign Host, a proxy header
and a sibling container on the same network are each refused. `npm run doctor`,
`npm test` (5067 passed, 1 skipped, 0 failed) and `npm run build` are green
inside the container.
