Rough EUR figures per item (qty x unit price), a confirmed-need subtotal,
and a separate conditional subtotal for the two unconfirmed Sound Systems.
Reuses docs/project-plan.md's own figures where it has them (GPU, ESP32
board, amp, speakers); everything else is a market-price estimate flagged
as such, not a live-checked Amazon price.
hosts/touch-panel/: cheap touch controllers sometimes report as an absolute-
position HID mouse instead of a real digitizer, which makes libinput hand
sway a type:pointer device instead of type:touch. Add a type:pointer
fallback (flat accel profile, no pointer acceleration, cursor hidden on
idle) so taps still work as single-touch clicks in that case, plus a udev
rule template (configs/udev/99-touchscreen-override.rules) to re-tag a
specific known device back to full wl_touch semantics once its USB vendor/
product ID is known. Documented in a new README section and reflected in
project-plan.md's hardware/guardrail/open-decision entries for Phase 16.
docs/components.md: replace the Lenovo ThinkSmart View pick for Loggia (a
locked-down Teams/Zoom appliance, not a general Linux box) with a cheap
all-in-one touchscreen PC, then supersede that with the Lenovo all-in-one
already on hand for that room — moved from Need to Have throughout. Also
adds a Need section: missing components broken into sub-parts (Sound
System, Voice Reciever) with real Amazon listings found via search.

Tallies servers/endpoints across all rooms and calls out the still-open
items (Linus Room's undecided line, the two unconfirmed Sound System
entries).

hosts/touch-panel/: a touch-driven Sway kiosk with a full Spotify GUI client
(Flathub), a dedicated Home Assistant Chromium kiosk window, a general web
browser, an always-on eww touch dock for app switching, an on-screen keyboard
(wvkbd), and touchpanel-agent giving HA/the LLM the same MQTT-mediated control
the thin client has.
hosts/kitchen-display/ + pantry-vision/: a camera-vision grocery cataloguing
endpoint for the fridge/pantry. The kiosk's browser captures a photo via
getUserMedia and sends it to the new pantry-vision service, which asks an
Ollama vision model to identify the item and estimate shelf life; the
proposal is always human-confirmed before being written into Grocy stock.
The same display shows inventory sorted by soonest-to-expire and Grocy's
recipes.
Wires ENABLE_PANTRY_VISION into setup-container-host.sh and documents both
phases in docs/project-plan.md and README.md, matching this project's
existing per-host hardware/software/guardrail/open-decision conventions.
Nothing here has been run against real hardware, a real camera, or a real
Grocy/vision-model instance — see each new README's verification list.

Two additions:
- Thin client: an eww weather/clock overlay over the idle-gallery slideshow.
Time/date come from the local clock, weather from a new retained MQTT topic
(smarthome/weather/current) an HA automation has to publish — degrades to
clock-only if that never happens. idle-gallery.sh owns the overlay's
visibility, mirroring how fullscreen-watcher.sh already owns the
now-playing widget's.
- hosts/audio-endpoint/: headless, per-room-independent Spotify Connect
appliances for rooms without a thin client, no shared/synced stream. Two
build pipelines sharing one architecture-independent systemd
unit/wrapper: arm64 (Raspberry Pi + HiFiBerry Amp2) via rpi-image-gen
producing a real flashable .img, and amd64 (mini PC + USB DAC/amp) reusing
the thin client's own live-build toolchain stripped of its graphical/kiosk
stack. Both reuse the thin client's existing apt-first/documented-fallback
Spotify Connect install logic rather than reinventing it. rpi-image-gen's
exact config schema is flagged explicitly as unverified — no ARM build
environment was available to validate it against the real tool.

Three additions to the thin-client/container-host stack:
- admin-canvas + admin-web (Phase 13): an on-demand display surface for the
sys-admin-llm, mirroring digest-engine/digest-web's write/read split but as
a small always-on token-gated write API instead of a scheduled job. New
"4:admin" thin-client workspace, MQTT button, and duplicated canvas-sdk with
stat/image/video/chart window kinds.
- ESPHome firmware for the Waveshare ESP32-S3-Touch-LCD-1.85C-V2 (Phase 14):
a voice satellite + round-display status screen, evaluated as a DIY
alternative to Home Assistant Voice PE. Media/cover-art always takes
priority over an idle weather/time/date cycle, with a voice-state
visualizer overlaid on top. On-device wake word (micro_wake_word) feeding
the existing Assist pipeline, per-room "media_player_entity_id" wiring
documented explicitly to avoid cross-room bleed. Validated with ESPHome's
own config validator; not yet flashed to real hardware.
- Capture-card ("receiver box") video source selection on the thin client: a
new "5:capture" workspace and HA select that dynamically enumerates
USB/PCIe capture cards (re-scanned periodically for hot-plug), launches
mpv against the chosen one, and unconditionally excludes the gesture-
control camera from the list to preserve its existing no-HA-entity
invariant.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug found along the way: digest-browser's pkill
pattern matched any --kiosk mpv/firefox process rather than its own, which
would have let the new admin-browser/capture-view scripts kill each other's
windows.

Every generated document now goes through a second, independent Ollama call
(synth/counter_run.py) before anything is written to output/: it checks quotes,
figures, named theoretical connections, and cross-source correlations against
the exact context the original synthesis pass saw, dropping anything that
doesn't trace back to it. A quote the model claims is grounded also gets a
deterministic substring-search backstop, since that's the one claim type
checkable without trusting the verifying call's own word for it.
The verifier shares the same RCI-derived theoretical basis as the document
it's checking, not a neutral outside standard — its job is confirming the
underlying facts are real and the theory genuinely matches their structure,
not flagging correct Marxist analysis as unverifiable for being theoretical
rather than a bare fact.
Fails safe in one direction only: a document that can't be verified at all
(Ollama unreachable a second time) is kept but marked unverified, never
silently passed through unchecked and never blanked outright. A document that
fails entirely is replaced with an honest "withheld pending verification"
placeholder.

Rewrites synth/prompts/political.md's editorial stance: prioritize material
economics (labour disputes, capital concentration, capital export, trade wars)
over horse-race/personality politics, curate and quote rather than summarize
everything, apply Marx's labour theory of value and Lenin's imperialism by
name when an entry's structure genuinely matches (e.g. a merger -> Lenin's
tendency towards monopoly), correlate findings across news/financial/traffic
data explicitly on the globe view, and add a hard anti-speculation rule so
every claim traces to something actually in the context.

Implements both new subsystems from the project plan end to end:
- hosts/thin-client/: Debian live-build Sway kiosk image — greetd autologin,
wayvnc (replaces RDP, per open decision #1), thinclient-agent (HA MQTT
discovery + swaymsg control, the sole LLM-reachable surface), mpv/mpv-mpris,
spotifyd/Steam Link, minimal-chrome Firefox with uBlock Origin/SponsorBlock
preinstalled, a fullscreen-aware now-playing widget, persistent audio-output
selection, outbound RDP/VNC via Remmina, HA mobile-app text/pointer remote
control via ydotool, an optional opt-in gesture-control camera (MediaPipe
hand tracking, off by default at two independent gates), a maintenance-shell
keybind, a German default keymap, and an idle-timeout photo slideshow from a
new gallery SMB share on the container host.
- digest-engine/: quarter-daily LLM digest — email/Signal/Telegram/Discord/
WhatsApp ingestion (WhatsApp via a headful-Chromium bridge, opt-in, highest
risk), news (including RCI/marxist.com theoretical sources and a broad
mainstream/state-affiliated outlet list), financial indicators, flight/naval
traffic and an OPNsense Suricata-alerts summary as political-analysis
evidence, Grocy/CalDAV household ingestion, an evening-only recipe and
shopping-list suggestion from soon-to-expire stock, and a vendored
digest-canvas SDK (globe/window/glow) rendering compact and full views. A
digest that goes unviewed (no thin-client canvas display or voice playback)
is merged into the next run instead of being discarded, tracked via a
retained MQTT message on the shared broker.
Both are wired into hosts/container-host/scripts/setup-container-host.sh via
the existing ENABLE_X/X_BLOCK pattern, off by default. docs/project-plan.md and
README.md are updated to match; remaining open decisions and manual-
verification items are tracked in-repo (project-plan.md §4, digest-engine/
README.md, hosts/thin-client/README.md).

Extends the container-host script to cover the rest of the Phase 1/9 stack
(README's outstanding checklist item) so a single Debian host setup gets
Home Assistant plus the full companion stack: automation glue, monitoring,
a dashboard, push notifications, container management, and optional
scheduled backups. Also fixes a stale comment referencing a network-attached
SLZB-06 coordinator when the plan and config target a USB CC2652P dongle.
