Adds the workshop/office assistant and the plumbing several other features
were waiting on. The through-line: every new capability that could act on
its own proposes instead, and says out loud when it does not know something.
New service — workshop/
Project notebook (workshop.db) plus a never-pruned knowledge store
(workshop-knowledge.db): standing workflow instructions by activity,
keyword facts, durable project learnings, and the household's ONE hardware
inventory. GET /context returns everything applying right now in one call,
so the assistant is told the standing considerations rather than reminded
of them. Two databases because they have different lifetimes: rebuilding
the project store must not take the note about how you solder with it.
Hardware statuses distinguish reserved (still on the shelf) from in_use
(installed and working) — "can I use this right now" has different answers
for the two, and naming a project on an in_use item never silently demotes
it.
Gitea repos with append-only history: commit/push/branch yes, unattended;
force-push/rebase/amend/reset/filter-repo never, enforced server-side by
branch protection rather than only by this code refusing. When history
genuinely must be scrubbed, /scrub-request prints the commands for a human
to run — the manual step is the safety mechanism.
Fleet scripts: one monitoring-agent script per kind of machine, fetched by
each endpoint's fleet-bootstrap timer. Remote code execution by design, so
the constraints are the design — upload is a draft, publishing is separate,
scripts live in SQLite rather than on the writable share, every version is
kept, and the endpoint verifies the checksum and reports pass or fail.
Slots exist for the ESP32s and network appliances that cannot run a script
at all, holding the CheckMK-server-side config instead.
Infrastructure health
opnsense becomes a LIST of firewalls, each named, keyed by name rather than
index. CheckMK joins it. Both are polled by workshop (always-on) and read
by digest-engine, so the digest can say "critical since Tuesday" instead of
quoting a six-hour-old snapshot. Three states, because "I could not ask" is
not "nothing is wrong".
pantry-vision
All four stock movements are camera-driven; stock counts individual units
and folds brand-free via Grocy product groups. Door-sensor-triggered
appliance cameras record sightings as hints with timestamps, never as
stock — a camera at a door cannot tell in from out.
identity
Per-person colour and settable profile picture, assigned to avoid collisions
between people sharing an initial, on the 2-bit-per-channel lattice a colour
Pebble renders natively.
render/ — shared, vendored, dependency-free
media-visualiser: two-tier by necessity, since most endpoints have no local
audio; the synthetic tier says on screen that it is not an analysis.
floorplan-3d: canvas 2D rather than three.js — the scene is prisms on a
plane, which an isometric projection draws in ~200 lines, predictably on
weak panels, with the frontend still at zero dependencies.
Config and fleet plumbing
Rooms are one vocabulary (an HA area_id) from CoreSystemConfig through the
builders to suggested_area. Keycloak and FreeIPA are coupled as one
decision with USR_HA_ group naming, declaration-only for now and validated
as such. Immich alongside the photo share, read-only. Thin clients get the
full media-key set for a wireless remote.
Docs: fridge-item-location, workshop-assistant, rooms-and-endpoints,
endpoint-surfaces, pebble-presence-watchface.
Testing is stubbed suites and headless unit checks only — no real Grocy,
camera, vision model, CheckMK, Gitea, Samba or browser has been involved.
The CheckMK API shape and Gitea's branch-protection payload are written from
documentation and have version-sensitive field names.

digest-engine grows from a single household digest into four per-person
sections, and gains the memory and inputs to make them worth reading.
Per-person sections. identity owns a digest_sections column per person,
edited in the admin panel and read by digest-engine at the start of every
run (GET /digest-preferences). A run generates the union the household
asked for: a section nobody wants costs no LLM call and no ingestion of
its sources. Each surface then filters to the person HA resolved. The
display half is a filter, not an access control, and says so.
Network is its own section, split out of household so the two can be
wanted separately.
Political section rebuilt around four questions (global class struggle,
organising in Vorarlberg, mid-term consequences, the International and
comrades' reports). ~30 international feeds added, each carrying owner
and bias, with a symmetric ownership analysis rather than a
reliability ranking; Zionist outlets get an explicit zero-trust rule that
is not inversion. RCI social/podcast ingestion (YouTube Atom, podcast RSS,
public Telegram via the existing session) feeds a watch-later window.
Globe markers carry summaries with fold-out sources; counter_run drops
citations whose URLs are not in the context.
Meeting agendas: a Tagesordnung arriving by mail or WhatsApp is matched to
its calendar event, read with pypdf, and its points extracted
mechanically. The political section owns the contents and derives
"Political todos"; the household section is told only that an agenda
exists, enforced structurally.
The archive keeps every ingested item and measured number across runs, so
trends may finally be stated with figures and dates attached.
ntfy push after each run, assembled from existing narrations, gated by the
same per-person sections.
identity gains GET /speaker: automatic recognition for the voice path from
BLE plus recent face sightings. Unresolved means show less, never ask, and
nothing displays a digest because someone walked past a screen.
OPNsense credentials move into CoreSystemConfig.json; thin clients gain a
Display switch (HDMI-CEC, DPMS fallback) so an empty room stops powering a
TV.

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).
