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.

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.

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).
