Two bugs in the Launcher Config Modal after the Drawer→Modal migration:
1. Pre-existing persisted configs (missing hide_drawer__cfg field) caused
!undefined = true, opening the modal on every fresh load. Fixed by adding
a field-level initialization guard after the full-object guard.
2. $-syntax writes inside untrack() were suppressed by svelte-persisted-store,
so outside-click closure was never persisted. Fixed by using events_loc.update()
directly to ensure the write reaches localStorage serialization. Added equality
guard to effect 1 to prevent spurious modal flicker from whole-store re-fires.

When switching sessions within the same location, presentations and presenters
were not updating. The root cause: plain $derived(liveQuery(...)) never recreates
the Observable when slct__event_session_id changes, because liveQuery's async
callback runs in Dexie's zone where Svelte tracking is off. Dexie's range-level
change detection then ignores new session data (it arrives under a different
event_session_id index value, outside the originally observed range).
Replaced all four liveQuery declarations with $derived.by(() => { const id = ...;
return liveQuery(...id...); }) — the same pattern already used in +layout.svelte
for location-dependent queries. Svelte tracks the id read in the outer closure
and recreates the Observable on every session change.

Proactively re-injects 'key' (site access key) and 'uuid' (Novi token)
into 'Open Externally' and 'Copy Link' URLs on the Video Conferences
page. This prevents authentication failures when members open meetings
in a new browser tab after SvelteKit internal navigation has dropped
the bootstrap parameters.
Updated CLIENT__IDAA_and_customized_mods.md to document the requirement
for these keys in breakout URLs.
+layout.svelte: add lg:min-h-8/12 and max-h-screen to main content area.
launcher_background_sync.svelte: reposition sync monitor panel (bottom-15,
left-2, z-10 — was bottom-20, left-4, z-9999).
launcher_menu.svelte: reorder Tailwind classes for readability, no change
to applied styles.

menu_launcher_controls: handle_cache_cleanup now removes both ae_events_loc
and ae_loc from localStorage, giving a true clean slate on reload.
e_app_help_tech: Clear & Reload button no longer silently re-saves ae_loc
after clearing — if edit mode wipes localStorage, ae_loc goes with it.
Updated confirm message and title tooltip to say "you will be signed out"
instead of the previous misleading "sign-in will be preserved."
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Fills in two new buttons added to menu_launcher_controls.svelte:
- Clear Cache: removes 'ae_events_loc' from localStorage and deletes the
ae_events_db IndexedDB database, then reloads — clears stale launch state
without touching downloaded file cache or user prefs (theme/font size).
- Reload Launcher: calls native.window_control({ action: 'reload' }) in
Electron, falls back to window.location.reload() in browser mode.
Also fixes a stray 'lucide-svelte' import (merged Recycle into '@lucide/svelte')
and separates cache_status from reset_apps_status so button labels stay correct
when multiple actions fire.

Root cause: run_cmd uses exec() which blocks until the child exits. The
direct VLC binary forks its GUI process and exits — exec returns and the
post_script begins. The old post_script polled for VLC focus (up to 10s)
then sent Cmd+F, which fired mid-playback and stopped the video.
Fix 1 — nohup + &: detaches VLC from exec immediately so run_cmd returns
in ~0ms. This decouples the launcher flow from VLC's lifecycle.
Fix 2 — --fullscreen flag: VLC opens fullscreen directly via CLI option.
Eliminates the Cmd+F keystroke that was the proximate cause of the stop.
Fix 3 — > /dev/null 2>&1: silences VLC's verbose logging to prevent
exec's 1MB stdout buffer from overflowing and killing the process.
post_script simplified to a single `tell application "VLC" activate`
to bring VLC to the foreground after the 3s startup delay.

Adds a presenter-accessible "Reset Apps" button to menu_launcher_controls
that is always visible (no edit mode required). Kills presentation apps
(PowerPoint, Keynote, Acrobat, VLC, soffice) — critical recovery path for
presenters stuck on stage with a frozen app.
Also: warning colors on All Files / All Sessions when showing non-default
(hidden) content, and state-aware tooltips on the Display Mode toggle that
describe current state and what pressing will do.

Kills the standard conference presentation app set between sessions:
Microsoft PowerPoint, Keynote, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, VLC, soffice.
- Calls native.kill_processes({ process_name_li }) via existing relay
- Process list overridable per device via event_device.other_json.launcher.kill_process_li
- Button lives in Native OS config > System Actions (edit mode only)
- Reuses system_status for feedback — shows which apps are being killed
- Original list recovered from git history of legacy architecture docs

- open_in_os='win' now routes to Windows launch profiles (pptxwin/pptwin/odpwin/pdfwin)
via WIN_EXTENSION_MAP in get_launch_profile() — was silently ignored before
- Display override migrated from non-existent cfg_json backend field to localStorage
($events_loc.launcher.file_display_overrides) — only visible in edit mode; TODO added
for proper backend column when event_file gains cfg_json
- Onsite mode WIN extension rename now covers all 4 types (pptx, ppt, odp, pdf)
instead of only pptx/ppt
- open_in_os button shows LoaderCircle spinner during API call
- Remove cfg_json from properties_to_save (column does not exist on event_file table)

Without this, the button depended on the liveQuery round-trip to show
the new state — invisible on stale IDB caches that predate the cfg_json
properties_to_save fix. Now mutates event_file_obj locally on click so
the button reflects the new state immediately, with the background
refresh as confirmation.

open_in_os = 'win': get_launch_profile() now maps pptx→pptxwin, ppt→pptwin,
odp→odpwin, pdf→pdfwin when open_in_os is 'win', routing to the Windows-variant
launch profiles (Parallels/CrossOver). Was never wired in native mode — feature
was silently lost in the MasterKey→Launcher port.
cfg_json missing from properties_to_save: the per-file display override was
always read as undefined from Dexie because cfg_json was never saved. Added
cfg_json to properties_to_save so display_override and any other cfg fields
persist correctly. NOTE: IDB_CONTENT_VERSIONS for event_file is not yet wired;
existing devices need a manual cache clear to pick up the new field.
Display override button: removed $ae_loc.is_native gate — must be configurable
from any device ahead of the event, not only on the podium Mac.
Display toggle persistence: quick_display_mode now reads from and writes to
$events_loc.launcher.display_mode so the last-set state survives page reloads
instead of always defaulting to 'extend'.

All app post-scripts called activate once before the poll loop, then only
checked `frontmost` passively. When Electron retains focus (common when the
app is spawned via run_cmd), macOS focus-stealing prevention blocks the one-
shot activate and VLC/PowerPoint/etc. never come to front. The poll loop
times out and fires the keystroke at Electron instead.
Fix: move activate inside the repeat loop so it re-fires every 0.5s until
macOS yields focus. Also bumped VLC post_delay_ms 1000→2000 and iterations
15→20 for slow conference machines.
Affected profiles: VLC (mac), PowerPoint (mac), LibreOffice (mac+win),
Acrobat (mac+win).

- Combine Extend/Mirror into a single toggle button, moved behind edit_mode
- All edit-mode controls (All Files, All Sessions, Display) now share consistent preset-tonal-tertiary styling
- Remove the always-visible display row and its non-native-mode disclaimer
- Wrap Menu_launcher_controls in mt-auto to keep it pinned to the bottom of the sidebar regardless of session count
- Add min-w-20 to file size chip to prevent collapse on narrow sessions

Onsite operators can now manually trigger a full pre-sync of all location
materials via a "Force Sync Location" button in the Launcher config.
This ensures podium Macs have all content cached before an event starts.
- Added trigger__force_location_sync to launcher session store.
- Implemented force_location_sync() in background sync engine to perform
recursive metadata fetches for all sessions in a location.
- Optimized download queue with a 4-tier chronological sort:
1. Event/Location assets (Global)
2. Sessions by start time (Earliest first)
3. Presentations by start time (Sequential order)
4. File creation date (First-in fairness for on-time uploads)
- Updated module and native integration documentation.

TODO__Agents.md:
- Added the two additional fixes from the review pass to the PATCH/DELETE
retry hardening entry: default timeout 60s→20s, and DELETE missing
ae_auth_error banner on 401/403.
BOOTSTRAP__AI_Agent_Quickstart.md:
- Added mistake #13: breaking the API retry loop by returning errors from
the TypeError/AbortError block instead of throwing them. Documents the
Jan 2026 regression (commit a10accfaa), the three retry classes that must
be preserved, and a quick verification method.
- Filled the gap at item #7 (was missing, causing off-by-one numbering
from item 8 onward). Items renumbered 8-14 → 7-13.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two gaps found during review of the recent retry-hardening commits:
1. api_patch_object.ts and api_delete_object.ts still defaulted to 60s
timeout while GET/POST were lowered to 20s. No callers set an explicit
timeout, so the default was the only value used. With retry_count=5 and
the new backoff policy, 60s per attempt = 5+ minutes worst-case wait.
Lowered to 20s to match GET/POST and keep worst-case under ~2 minutes.
2. api_delete_object.ts had no ae_auth_error import and no session-expired
banner on 401/403. A stale-session DELETE would silently return false
with no user feedback. Added browser + ae_auth_error imports and the
ae_auth_error.set() call matching the pattern in GET/POST/PATCH.

The Jan 2026 "offline-first fast-paths" commit (a10accfaa) inadvertently
broke retries for transient network failures (ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED, WiFi
roam events, etc.). The original code's .catch() returned undefined, which
fell through to the `if (!response) throw` path and correctly entered the
retry loop. After a10accfaa, .catch() returned the error as a value, and
the subsequent `instanceof Error` check returned false immediately —
bypassing all retries for the most common failure mode in
hotel/conference environments.
Changes:
- TypeError now throws into the retry loop instead of returning false
- AbortError still returns false immediately (intentional cancel, no retry)
- Per-attempt AbortController: moved inside the loop in both files so each
retry gets its own independent timeout (previously GET retries had no
timeout at all after the first attempt's clearTimeout ran)
- clearTimeout() added to catch block so timer is always cancelled on error
- Exponential backoff added: 2s→4s→6s→8s (capped) between attempts;
rapid retries on a flaky network accomplish nothing without a delay
- Default timeout lowered: 90s → 20s (generous for search/GET but avoids
the 90s worst-case hang that amplified ERR_NETWORK_CHANGED exposure)

"Try Again" resets auto_retry_count but reuses the same localStorage state — if
ae_loc or ae_idaa_loc holds a stale account_id or api_secret_key, every retry
fails identically and the user is stuck in an infinite error loop.
New button clears ae_loc + ae_idaa_loc from localStorage and db_events.event
from IDB, then reloads via the sessionStorage-preserved UUID URL (same logic as
the IDAA layout's Clear Cache & Reload). Forces a fresh FQDN handshake and
re-derives correct auth state. Guidance text shown so users know to try it when
Try Again keeps failing.

- macOS: Uses direct binary path (/Applications/VLC.app/Contents/MacOS/VLC)
with --no-play-and-exit --play-and-pause flags and AppleScript fullscreen toggle.
Confirmed working: pause on last frame, stays in window.
- Linux: Uses shell command (vlc --no-play-and-exit --play-and-pause).
Known issue: not going fullscreen, not pausing on end. Deferred for later
investigation of flag interpretation vs launcher execution layer.
- Created separate profile constants: VLC_MIRROR_MAC_PROFILE and
VLC_MIRROR_LINUX_PROFILE in ae_launcher__default_launch_profiles.ts
- Updated TODO__Agents.md with Linux VLC issue for future debugging
Files: ae_launcher__default_launch_profiles.ts, documentation/TODO__Agents.md
- Add Extend/Mirror toggle to Native OS config section (always visible,
no Technical Mode required). Default: Extend. State updates on success.
- Replace .catch(() => {}) swallowing with console.warn logging on both
set_display_layout call sites so failures appear in the Electron console
- Remove old edit-mode-only Extend button (replaced by new toggle)
- Update PROJECT doc: displayplacer install note, binary lookup order, GitHub link

ring-1 uses CSS box-shadow which nearly disappears when the UI is scaled
down through VNC. Switched all preset chips and action buttons to border-2
so they remain clearly distinct at reduced resolution.
preset-tonal-surface + border-2 border-surface-400 for unselected chips;
disabled:opacity-60 (vs default 50) on Save & Apply so it is still

`open -a App` returns immediately; a fixed delay is unreliable for cold starts.
Each post_script now polls every 500 ms (up to 7.5 s) until the target process is
frontmost before firing the automation keystroke. Keynote polls document count
instead of frontmost since start(front document) requires the file to be loaded.
Mac profiles: post_delay_ms 2000 → 1000. Win/Parallels profiles: 3000 → 1500.

Before: a 503 response from /v3/action/idaa/novi_member/{uuid} hit !response.ok
immediately, set verify_failed_for_uuid, and showed "Verification Unavailable" —
no automatic retry. In the old client-to-Novi flow an unreachable server threw
TypeError (auto-retried); the new server-side path returns a clean HTTP 503
(plain Error), bypassing the is_network_or_timeout branch.
After: 503 gets the same 3s wait + one retry that network/timeout errors get.
Only if the retry also 503s does it fall through to the error UI.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The server-side migration removed the old novi_idaa_api_key check, which was
also acting as an implicit 'is IDAA configured here?' guard. Without it, any
domain that resolves (including ghost/domain-not-found with account_id='ghost')
would fire the Aether endpoint and get an error response, showing 'Verification
Unavailable' over the root layout's 'Domain Not Found' message.
Restore the site_cfg.novi_idaa_api_key presence check as the first guard:
- key absent → site_cfg_json still loading OR this is not an IDAA site → skip
- account_id='ghost' → domain lookup failed → added explicit ghost guard too
The key itself is unused for auth (server holds it); we only test its presence.

verify_novi_uuid() now calls GET /v3/action/idaa/novi_member/{uuid} instead
of fetching Novi directly from the browser. The Aether backend handles the
Novi call server-to-server, eliminating false Access Denied failures caused
by hotel/conference WiFi, VPNs, and Cloudflare IP filtering.
Response parsing simplified — full_name and email are normalized server-side.
Empty-200 anti-pattern handling, email space→+ normalization, and display-name
formatting moved to the backend (confirmed working per API agent).
Retry logic and error classification unchanged (429→rate_limited, network
error→retry once, all others→api_error).
