Re-pin the Realtime tool payload hash for the merged tree (voice geometry plus pitchDeg). To fit main's 55,500 prompt ceiling with Overpass on, the pitchDeg schema drops its -90..90 range (the runner already clamps to -89..-5, now pinned by a test) and its description is shorter. The Overpass prompt measures 55,492.
The heatmap now takes over above 4,500 km instead of 3,000 km, with
the cross-fade between 3,600 and 5,400 km. The markers band caps at
40,000 detections, which covers the ~40,000 in the padded view over
Africa at the low end of the fade, so weak fires still stay as markers.
To keep that rebuild near its old cost, markers outside the close band
read the anchor already built for each fire instead of the ground floor
cache: only the close band warms floors, so the lookup there always
missed. A 40,000-marker rebuild now costs ~55 ms, down from ~120 ms.
Review follow-ups for the sonar pulses.
Wake on user input only: a camera move wakes the pulses only within
1.5 s of a pointer, wheel or touch on the Cesium canvas, where its
camera controller listens. Tracking, the cockpit view, an orbit or a
fly-to move the camera on every frame and no longer keep the pulses
running. Keys don't count: the camera controller reads none.
Below the disc: with the camera under 2.5 km the pulses rest
completely, with no disc, ring flash, echoes or frame requests.
Echo brightness: echoes scale by the contact bracket's drawn alpha,
which includes the Cyber sonar sweep, rounded to the nearest band with
no floor, so an echo is never brighter than its bracket.
Disc follow: the pulse disc follows the subject by a model-matrix
rotation about the Earth's centre and is rebuilt only every 20 km
instead of every 500 m.
Tests: a cap on burst length; teardown through disable(); the echo's
spread and alpha on the canvas; echoes under the Cyber sonar never
brighter than their bracket; waking by pointer, wheel, touch and drag
but not by keys, app camera moves or stale input; the rest below the
disc; and tighter asserts. CURRENT-STATE notes that terrain above
2.5 km still cuts through the disc and ring.
resolve_area compared the spoken name with the unit's name literally, so
"State of Texas" (admin1) and "USA" or "UK" (country) were refused with
AREA_IDENTITY_MISMATCH although the bundled matcher found exactly those
units. Both identity checks, the bundled one and the outline ladder's, now
also accept the prefix forms and same-unit country aliases the matcher
reads, at the level they imply, so the level check still applies.
"Great Britain", "Britain", "America" and "Korea" still need their own
names, and the natural-region check stays literal.
Above 300 km the guard treated any shrinking pinch distance as an outward
zoom, so a two-finger tilt whose fingers drifted slightly closer had its
pitch overwritten. A two-finger gesture now counts as a zoom only when the
spacing changes more than the fingers' midpoint moves.
Cesium clamps any zoom that starts above maximumZoomDistance to that
limit, in either direction, so a share link or flight that left the
camera above 40,000 km jumped to the ceiling on the first wheel tick.
While the camera is above the ceiling, the guard now uses its current
height as the limit and lowers it as the camera descends.
osm_query said "At least N" when the server capped its list, but handed
the places to the analyst engine with truncated:false, so "which of those
have emergency?" answered as if the list were whole. The handoff now
carries the cap and its caveat, and follow-ups (and their follow-ups)
stay incomplete with an unknown total.
The 750–3,000 km markers band now draws up to 20,000 detections instead
of 2,500. At the 2,400 km end of the cross-fade the padded view over
Africa holds ~21,000 fires, and the old cap kept only those above
~17 MW, so most heat spots faded into empty ground as the heatmap went
out. A rebuild of that many costs ~60 ms, and only in the densest views.
The voice answer waited 25 s for /api/osm/features, while the server let
Overpass run for 25 s and itself waited up to 40 s per endpoint and 45 s
in all. When the browser gave up first it closed the request, the route
cancelled the upstream query, and nothing was cached, so the OSM_TIMEOUT
retry started the same query from scratch and timed out again.
The server now tells Overpass 20 s, waits 22 s per endpoint and 22 s in
all, which ends inside the client's 25 s. A test pins that ordering.
A reply stopped partway through a round now keeps the actions that ran,
answering the calls it never reached as skipped, so the history stays
paired for both providers. A failed typed turn no longer resets the
pointer, referents and follow-up memory, since its conversation continues.
The server now tells a rejected key (401, or Gemini's 400 with reason
API_KEY_INVALID, matched exactly), denied access (403) and an account out
of credit (OpenAI's 429 insufficient_quota) apart; each cools down for a
minute and gets its own message in the chat.
A zoom in during a pivoting tilt stops at the range that keeps the camera 150 m above the pivot at its current pitch. A zoom that moves the range by less than half a metre (at the clearance, the 80 m floor or the 5,000 km cap) now answers not zoomed instead of ok, and a tilt reports tiltRangeAdjusted rather than orbitRadiusAdjusted.
The far-zoom heatmap now uses the ½× grid (4096 × 2048, ≈10 km per
pixel, one-pixel blur), so a lone fire's spot matches its marker at the
3,000 km hand-off. The spot size slider and its share option are gone.
Markers and heatmap are both kept built at every zoom and cross-fade by
camera height between 2,400 and 3,600 km on every frame, so a fast zoom
never shows a beat with neither. The heatmap fades by imagery alpha:
hiding a Cesium imagery layer unmaps it from the globe tiles, and showing
it again re-mapped them late, which was the gap at the band edge. Under
the markers the heatmap is built 150 ms after the data or filter changes.
Typed chat sessions no longer end on the voice inactivity timeout, and a
failed or stopped reply keeps the conversation: Stop cancels only the
reply in progress, and map actions that already ran stay in the model's
context. Each upstream request and map action gets its own deadline, old
tool results shrink instead of the history overflowing, and step limits,
a missing or rejected key, the OAuth lock and throttling each get their
own message.
- Server: OpenAI chat is off under GEV_PREFER_CODEX_OAUTH; chat throttles
default to the provider's throttle; replies carry API_KEY_MISSING,
API_KEY_REJECTED, CODEX_OAUTH_REQUIRED and RATE_LIMITED codes; upstream
Retry-After passes through, and a rejected key (Gemini's invalid-key 400
included) cools down for a minute
- Pinokio forwards the chat throttle settings
- UI: the reply reveal publishes only the message list; the border orbit
runs only while busy; layers attach with a button or Enter; the log is
aria-busy while a reply types out; auto-scroll respects a reader who
scrolled up; Escape closes the attach menu; the chat gear says Settings;
a note says chat bills the OpenAI key when voice uses ChatGPT sign-in
- Layout does less work while panel height animates; unused blurs removed
- Gemini voice start ends chat; the voice preview clears on every new
session
- Tests for the route gates, client limits, attachments and the fixes
The range ring was a Cesium entity, and entities are always picked, so
a click or tap on its edge became an unowned hit: vessel selection read
it as empty space and pickContact stopped its touch search there. A
contact under the 250 km edge was hard to select.
The ring is now a polyline primitive with allowPicking false, in the
same PolylineOutline material and 4 px width the entity used, so it
draws the same. The flash while pulses run writes the material's colour
alphas from the pulses' per-frame update; under reduced motion the
colours stay at full and no listener is added. A subject that moves
250 m rebuilds the primitive and keeps the material, so a flash carries
on across the move. Viewers without a usable primitive collection
(headless tools, stubs) still get a static entity.
The ring's geometry options come from awarenessRingGeometryOptions,
tested directly, and the tests now check that the awareness visual adds
no entity and that every primitive it adds is unpickable, with and
without reduced motion.
- A motion waiting on a voice fly-to follows a later fly-to in the
same reply that cancels it, within one deadline, instead of
reporting that its flight did not arrive. A stale reply stops
following.
- The wait is 15 s, down from 30 s: it holds the tool output, and on
Gemini the later tools in the turn.
- Beyond 1,000 km of range a tilt happens in place instead of
swinging thousands of km about the crosshair point.
- The tilt-nudge limits read the pivot pitch the motion starts from,
including for a voice tilt from a tracked view, whose follow camera
is released before it moves.
- move_camera's argument checks run before the flight wait, so a
malformed call is refused at once.
- Tests: t.after cleanup in the fly-then-motion loop, the pitchDeg
pin asserts the field before removing it, and the handoff-order
pin follows the extracted argument checks.
Remaining review follow-ups for the sonar pulses.
No self-echo: pulses are born 5 km out (startFraction of the radius),
but contacts nearer than that, the subject included, still lit on every
pulse birth. They now never echo. Just past the birth ring, an echo is
scaled with the front's own fade-in, so a bracket no longer flashes
before a visible front reaches it. The ring flash at the full radius is
unchanged.
Older Safari: the reduced-motion listener falls back to the media
query's addListener / removeListener when addEventListener is missing,
as other modules here already do.
Echo wiring test: a detectionHost test now paints through the real
detection lane with an echo field set, and checks the echo stroke takes
the echo colour on the default style and each style's line colour under
CRT, NVG and FLIR. CURRENT-STATE notes the 5 km no-echo zone.
The query tools rounded courses, headings, bearings and azimuths with
Number(value.toFixed(0)) and no wrap, so a direction of 359.5 degrees or
more came back as 360: find_vessel with course 359.7 and heading 359.6
returned course_deg 360 and heading_deg 360.
Round them through the shared roundHeadingDegrees helper the layers and
UI already use (src/data/headingDegrees.js), which wraps into 0 to 359:
course_deg and heading_deg (vessels), course_deg (aircraft), bearing_deg
(transit), heading_deg (cameras), and rise_azimuth_deg and azimuth_deg
(satellites). Other rounding is unchanged.

Review follow-up for the sonar pulses (the non-blocking items).
Unpickable pulses: the three pulse lines were polyline entities, which
Cesium always picks, so near-miss and touch picks around them became
unowned hits. They are now drawn by the pulse disc's shader, which
already drew the gradient and is built with allowPicking false. Each
line keeps the polyline outline material's look: 3 CSS px wide with a
1 px dark outline in the ring's colours, measured from the screen-space
gradient of the disc's radius times czm_pixelRatio, as Cesium's contour
material does. Without derivatives only the gradient band is drawn.
Disc follow: with the lines on the disc, it is rebuilt after the subject
moves 500 m instead of 2 km, so the pulses stay concentric with the
ring. A resting disc is hidden and not rebuilt; it catches up when the
pulses wake.
Camera below the disc: the disc sits 2.5 km above the ellipsoid with
faceForward, so from a lower camera it swept across the sky. It is now
hidden while the camera is below that height.
Echo palette: echo brackets keep the pulse blue on the default
detection style and take the style's line colour under NVG, FLIR and
CRT.
Echo test: the detection renderer's echo maths moves into
awarenessEchoBracket and awarenessEchoColor in src/awarenessEcho.js,
tested directly instead of running a regex slice of detection.js
through vm, and the one-sided spread assert is now two-sided.
The positions reuse parameter of awarenessRangeRingPositions and the
pulse segment count had no callers left and are removed.
- A zoom during a pivoting tilt now scales the range the tilt holds,
as it already did for orbit, instead of being undone on the next
frame while reporting success. The zoom limits no longer move a view
the wrong way: a zoom in leaves a view closer than 80 m in place, and
a zoom out leaves an orbit beyond 5,000 km where it is.
- A grab, touch or wheel on the map while a voice fly-to is in flight
drops the motion queued behind it. Cesium lands the flight anyway,
so the orbit or tilt would otherwise take the camera back. Chained
fly-tos in one reply keep the earliest snapshot.
- A pivot tilt toward the horizon stops lowering the camera at 150 m
above the pivot and tilts the rest in place, so a close view no
longer ends inside tiles or a hillside.
- pitchDeg is an absolute angle. A direction that contradicts it is
refused, judged from the pitch the swing starts at, and the tool
description says so.
Cesium zooms a shallow view out by backing along the cursor ray with
heading and pitch held fixed, and GEV set no zoom ceiling. Past ~700 km
the limb drops below the fixed pitch, the steps grow with height, and
the camera flies off into space.
Cap user zoom at 40,000 km (whole-Earth view; flights are not limited)
and, above 300 km during a user wheel, pinch or right-drag zoom-out,
ease the pitch down to at least 8 degrees below the Earth's limb. The
clamp yields to disabled inputs, tracked transforms and camera flights.
