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.

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).

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.

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).

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).

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.

Main added the Google Street View street-level provider and key guidance
that offers another source. Its new text goes through t()/msg() with ru
and es entries; the key guidance the panel shows is built in the UI
language by src/ui/keyGuidance.js, while keySetupCore.mjs keeps the
English sentences the server and AI tools use.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
Upstream's Street View rework (second imagery provider, one source at a
time, OPEN STREET VIEW button, key-alternative guidance) rewrote exactly
the street-level regions this branch localizes.
Resolved as upstream logic + re-applied localization:
- keySetupCore: new unlock copy kept as msg() data; added
keySetupAlternativeKeyNames() returning machine values (registry key
names) so key-setup core stays English while presentation localizes.
- New src/ui/keyGuidance.js: localized key-guidance composer shared by
layerPanel and streetLevelPresentation (requirement sentence plus the
"or light X to use your Y key" alternatives tail, placeholders only).
- streetLevelPresentation: keyGuidance()/presentNearest()/presentMeta
relocalized (t/tn + formatNumber instead of toLocaleString);
renderModes and month-precision dates kept from upstream.
- layer-panels.html: upstream row ids, sl-meta-row and the new button
kept, data-i18n hooks re-applied (incl. OPEN STREET VIEW fallback).
- es/ru catalogs: 13 new keys, stale unlock key replaced in place.
npm run i18n: complete for es and ru. npm test: 6345/6347; the one
failure (devFreshDotenv provenance) also fails on plain upstream/main
and on the pre-merge tip here - this machine leaks OPENAI_API_KEY into
spawned children with a replaced env, so it is environmental.
- 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 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.

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.

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.

- 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.

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.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
- 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).
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.

main grew the Street Level provider registry while this branch removed it
(#982–#985: injected providers, an empty composition, the `r` switch field).
The registry, params, uiState and pick router come back as main has them and
the slimmed layer sits behind the provider contract:
- The core (index.js) drives providers as on main, without surface modes,
ground casting, FOLLOW, prewarm and nearest-image lookups. A provider's key
status is asked with a 10 s timeout and asked again on a switch-on while no
key is known.
- Mapillary is mapillaryProvider.js over the slim coverage, sequences and
viewer modules, which read the filter and the active flag from the provider
context.
- The viewer host mounts one provider adapter at a time, no prewarm.
- The panel has a chip per provider again (the pill switches the layer);
no legend, EXPAND stays the Fullscreen API.
- The contract drops what no provider implements: groundCaster, meshSampler,
getSurface/setSurface, nearestImage, prewarm, reportError, the legend and
surface fields of the UI snapshot.

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.

Retain upstream changes to the panel controller, formatting scope, changelog and docs. Preserve the #804 ownership fix and its rail restoration regression (original report: @raysung-2026).
Close the overlay when adaptive layout restores an auto-collapsed Context directly. Regression covers the reachable rail reflow path; changelog credits the original report by raysung-2026 (#804).
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 & for CSS.

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».

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».

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.

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.
Co-Authored-By: German Khokhlov <[email protected]>
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.

Review of #966: with a Google Maps key but no Mapillary token, switching
Street Level on read KEY REQUIRED / "Needs MAPILLARY_CLIENT_TOKEN" with
nothing about Street View, which stayed off (billing), so the layer looked
broken.
- While the switched-on providers lack their keys, the layer reports the
switched-off ones that would draw with a key already set
(keyAlternatives: Street View on Google 3D with a Google key). The
panel's KEY REQUIRED tooltip, its coverage line and the layer row's
tooltip then read "Needs MAPILLARY_CLIENT_TOKEN — add it in Provider
Settings, or light STREET VIEW to use your Google Maps key"
(keySetupWithAlternatives). Off Google 3D the plain KEY REQUIRED stays.
Street View stays off by default.
- OPEN STREET VIEW moves beside the coverage hint: at the default panel
width the PROVIDERS row has no room for it, so it wrapped onto a line of
its own.
- The panel gate's corner drag names what lay under the pointer when it
fails.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
- No pointer cursor over coverage lines (no other layer has one); a click
test replaces the hover tests.
- No legend: one source, one colour.
- The on-globe credit lives in index.js; credits.js is gone.
- Billboard glyphs are SVG data URLs with the same geometry, so tests need
no canvas stub.
- The tile cache keeps the 120 most recently used tiles, same 24 h TTL,
instead of a byte budget; listTileLayers was test-only.
- providers/mapillary/ is flattened into the layer and its policy merged
into one policy.js; the source's method list is a literal in the catalog.
- One fakeCesiumViewer for the layer tests.
- The fixture gate keeps the steps the unit tests do not cover: coverage and
credit, a rejected key, line -> cone -> photo, close, a keyless page.

No markup carries a drag handle, so nothing called it: panel position

- A failed or missing key status is asked again on the next switch-on, and
the check gives up after 10 s instead of holding LOADING forever.
- Waiting for the key status reads as LOADING while the layer is on.
- Esc shrinks the photo in full screen too, before the panel's own Esc.
- Destroying the panel with the iPhone popover open leaves no popover behind.
- An empty view says whether the filter emptied it.
- A freed upstream tile slot passes straight to the oldest waiter.

- visibleBbox: no view-rectangle fallback or grid option; its one caller

- one keyStatusLabel for the pill and the layer list
- no constructor source check, double-init guard or selectSequence /
clearSequence on the layer
