Every DRM device with a real GPU driver gets a box under the cpu box, laid out
like it: the busy curve, a meter for the device and one per engine, temperature,
clock, power and fan where the card has them, and the processes holding it open
with their share. The process table gains a Gpu% column and sort.
Device busy is Intel's RC6 idle residency inverted (what intel_gpu_top shows,
and readable without root) or amdgpu's gpu_busy_percent. Per-process shares are
DRM fdinfo deltas, as nvtop reads them; other users' fdinfo needs root, so a
daemon running as a user keeps one root child (hamlab drm-clients) over a pipe
rather than paying a sudo a second. Everything is also a gpu.* sensor.
What cannot be measured is left out, not shown as zero: an Arc A380 on i915 6.12
has no temperature sensor, an integrated GPU wears the package temperature
marked *, and Asahi has neither a busy counter nor fdinfo yet.

On a tunnel this machine configures — today that means OpenWrt's UCI, which is
where the server here lives — the VPN tab can add a device, rename it and take
it away. A wg-quick host is reported as unmanaged and shows no buttons, because
half-supporting a second configuration format is worse than an honest refusal.
Adding generates the keypair and a pre-shared key on the machine, picks the
lowest free address in the tunnel's range, and hands back the complete client
profile with a QR code for the WireGuard apps. The private key in it is
generated for that one call and stored nowhere, so the profile is shown until
dismissed and then gone — the same bargain as any password this console makes.
Nothing restarts the network, which matters when the interface belongs to the
router the house is behind. `uci commit` writes the file and applies nothing;
`wg set` changes one peer on the live interface and touches nothing else.
The order of the two is chosen so they cannot disagree quietly. Adding writes
the configuration first and rolls it back if the live tunnel refuses, because a
device that works only after the next reboot is the worst of the three outcomes.
Removing does the live tunnel first, since that is the moment access actually
ends, and says plainly if the configuration half then fails.
Removing asks for the device's name to be typed back, at both ends. It is the
one action here that cannot be undone and it sits one tap from a list of devices
that all look alike.

Per machine like every other tab: the interfaces as the kernel has them
(addresses, MAC, MTU, negotiated link speed, carrier, totals, live rates from
the sampler's own sensors), the default route and resolvers, what the internet
sees of this connection, and a speed test with the last fifty results kept.
The test runs in the daemon, not the browser, so the figure is the line of the
machine in the switcher — the router's, if you switch to gate — and it carries
on when the phone locks. It measures against Cloudflare's public speed
endpoints, so there is nothing to install on any host, which is what makes it
work the same on Debian and on OpenWrt where flash is scarce.
What the measurement does and does not count:
- Several streams, HTTP/2 deliberately off. One stream over one connection
measures a congestion window, and HTTP/2 would put every stream back onto
one connection and measure the same thing.
- The first second of each phase is thrown away as the ramp.
- A phase ends on 64 MiB as well as on four seconds, so a fast line says what
it is without moving a gigabyte. A minimum window keeps a very fast line
from filling the cap before there is anything to divide by.
- Latency is the round trip less the far end's own Server-Timing. A zero-byte
response is mostly Cloudflare's worker thinking: left in, it reported 31 ms
for a line the edge itself measures at 3.5. Jitter is the mean change
between consecutive probes, so one slow probe cannot run away with it.
- The far end rate-limits by volume. So: a 20 s cooldown counted from the last
attempt rather than the last success, streams that retry twice, the rate
computed over the window in which bytes were actually still arriving, and a
plain sentence when it was refused. Coasting to the end of the clock with
nothing arriving reported a third of the truth.
The last result is published as net.internet.* sensors, each stamped with when
the test ran, so the line can be a widget, a graph, an alert or a Prometheus
series like anything else. The public address is refreshed on its own quarter
hour, which is worth having here: it is a DHCP lease and it moves.
Tests are offline — the window, the byte cap, the refusal and the cancellation
run against a local server; the route parser's byte order is pinned by a case
that would have caught the bug it did. The live measurement is behind
HAMLAB_NET_TEST=1.

A guest password is read off a message and typed by hand, and from the login
form a mistyped character and a wrong password look identical. Revealed, the
field is a text field, so it also turns off capitalisation and autocorrect,
which a phone keyboard would otherwise offer for it.

Users -> Guest logins makes a throwaway user name and password, good for half
an hour by default, to hand to somebody who wants to see the console. It is a
normal account with `guest: true` and an expiry, so login, sessions and the
saved look need no special case, and it is left out of the account list, out of
"the last account can't be removed", and out of the one account an empty user
name means.
What a guest may do is one allow-list, checked in the auth middleware, rather
than a flag ~190 handlers have to remember. The list is matched by asking the
router which handler a request would reach, so it cannot drift from the routes
it names, and it is checked against the scoped path — /api/nodes/grid/procs is
/api/procs on grid — because the hub proxies to a node with a token that is
full control of that node. The node cannot tell a guest from its owner, so the
only place it can be stopped is here, before the request leaves.
A guest gets the dashboard, containers, stacks, disks, hardware, ZFS and usage,
on this machine and on any managed one, and nothing else: no terminal (attaching
is a GET, and it is a root shell), no files, no container logs or environments,
no stack files, no alert channels, no cron, no tokens, no settings, no power.
Expiry is enforced on every request and swept once a minute, so a console left
open on a visitor's phone stops within the minute rather than at their next
click; revoking signs them out at once. The console hides what a guest cannot
use and says how long is left where the power button would be.

Recreate is `up -d --force-recreate`. It exists because Deploy and Update
both leave a container alone when its definition has not changed, which is
precisely the state a container is in when Docker will not start it — pinned
to a network that has since been recreated, answering "network … not found"
to everything. siyuan landed there today and there was no way out from the
console.
The Updates tab is a page, not a list with a detail pane, so on a wide window
it was being squeezed into the right-hand half with an empty list column
taking the left — which read as a phone layout on a desktop. It now sits
under the tab strip at full width. The list-and-detail tabs are unchanged.
The rule needed :not(.has-sel) to outrank the wide-window rule that grows the
list to fill the row.

The Updates tab could tell you eleven images were behind and offer nothing to
do about it; updating meant knowing which stack each image belonged to and
going to find it. Now each row has Update and the header has Update all.
Updating is per stack, because that is the unit compose deals in, so a row
acts on whichever stacks use that image — postgres:15-alpine is wikijs's,
postgres:17 is vikunja's — and Update all walks the affected stacks through a
queue one at a time, with each task's output on screen, rather than
recreating half the machine at once. A stack that finishes says "updated just
now" rather than re-checking, since every check is a registry request and
Docker Hub counts them.
Also: cron expressions read as English. "daily at 3:15am", with 15 3 * * *
kept beside it. Jobs.tsx had a smaller version of this for its own list; it
now uses the shared one, which handles lists, ranges, steps, names,
weekdays/weekends, midnight and noon, and says nothing at all when it is not
certain — the caller falls back to the expression.

A view shows one machine: the one in the switcher. Seeing another machine's
state means switching to it, not a hub-side page that reaches across — and
this was one. Recorded as a decision so it does not get rebuilt.

Inspect's values are long paths, network names and env lists. In a two-column
grid on one line each they were half truncated and read as columns of
unrelated things. One per row, label above value, wrapping instead of an
ellipsis. Mounts are one block rather than a repeated "Mount" label.

Dockhand is being retired, so the Docker tab has to cover what it actually
earned its keep doing. Eight pieces, all per container or per machine:
- Stats: CPU, memory and IO over time, from sensors already collected.
- Health: the container's own healthcheck, with the last few probe outputs —
which is where a failing check says why.
- Events: `docker events` keeps a minute of backlog and nothing more, so Ham
Lab follows the stream and keeps a ring of its own. A restart at 4am is
still there at 9.
- Shell: `docker exec` into a container, in the terminal already here.
- Limits: memory, CPU and restart policy changed live, without hand-editing
the compose file for a number you want to try.
- Updates: what the registry has that this machine does not, for every image
at once rather than one stack at a time.
- The same across every machine, asked of the hub — which is the only thing
that can reach them all.
- Schedules: a real line in /etc/cron.d/hamlab-docker calling the binary,
in the same shape as the ZFS snapshot schedules. Dockhand updated DNS and
ingress nightly from a ticker inside a web app; a cron line keeps running
when the console does not, and is visible to anyone reading the machine the
normal way.
internal/compose is new and shared, so a deploy from the console and a deploy
from cron invoke compose identically — including the case where compose has to
run inside the orchestrator's own container, where the paths are that
container's and not the host's.

Safari on a Mac wants the webkit prefix; Safari on iOS has no fullscreen for an ordinary
element at all, only for a <video>, so requestFullscreen was simply undefined and the tab
threw. It now uses whichever spelling the browser has, and where there is none the frame
fills the viewport in-page instead — the same result minus the browser's own chrome — with
a Done button and Escape to come back. The button reads Expand rather than Fullscreen when
that is what it will do.

It was a hub-side list you pointed at machines, which had it backwards. A machine has one
KVM; switch to grid and you get grid's. The address is still kept on the hub rather than on
the machine, because a KVM earns its keep exactly when that machine is down and cannot
answer for itself — so the tab reaches the device either way. Adding a second KVM for a
machine replaces the first rather than sitting beside it.
The tab is no longer hub-only and now sits beside Machines in the rail.

Ham Lab proxies each KVM from its own origin, which is what makes the simple version
possible. A KVM that speaks only plain HTTP would otherwise be blocked outright as mixed
content in a TLS console; served from here it loads, it is behind this login rather than a
second one, and the iframe is same-origin.
Nothing in it knows anything about any particular device. The prefix /kvm/<id>/ is only the
entry point — a device UI asks for its assets by absolute path, which no prefix can rewrite
away, so any request Ham Lab does not serve itself is routed back to whichever KVM the
asking page belongs to, worked out from the Referer and from a cookie when there is no
Referer, as on a WebSocket upgrade. Ham Lab's own routes always match first, so a device can
never shadow the console, and the fallback is gated on a live session.
The list is hub-side on purpose: a KVM earns its keep when the machine is down, which is
when that machine's own Ham Lab cannot answer.
On the keyboard, a page cannot forward keys into an iframe and does not need to — one with
focus receives them directly. Fullscreen plus navigator.keyboard.lock() is what takes
Escape, Tab and Ctrl-W back from the browser; that is Chromium-only and the tab says so
rather than pretending otherwise.

Renamed Datasets to Snapshots and turned the columns around to match: how many each
dataset has and what they cost come first, the dataset's own size after. Opening one lists
its snapshots with when it was taken, when it expires — read from the TTL in its own name,
so no server call is needed — its size, and a Delete button. Deleting takes the same-named
snapshot on descendant datasets too, which is how a recursive schedule made it, and says so
before it does anything.
Dropped "What would it delete?" from the schedule cards, and the endpoint behind it. Run
now says plainly that expired snapshots go at the same time, which is the whole of what the
preview was telling anyone.

Pools, datasets and snapshots move out of Disks — Disks is the hardware, this is the
filesystem on top of it. New: snapshot schedules, hourly to monthly, with a retention
period and a floor that keeps the newest few whatever their age.
The naming is zfSnap's, deliberately. grid has run zfSnap from root cron since before this
repo existed and it works, so rather than invent a second convention this writes and reads
exactly what zfSnap does: 2026-09-24_02.30.01--6w, with the retention in the name. Ham Lab
can therefore show and expire the snapshots zfSnap already took, the two cannot disagree
about what a snapshot is, and changing a schedule never re-dates old ones — each carries
the rule it was taken under. An existing cron job is detected and shown on the page, with a
warning if a Ham Lab schedule is running as well.
Nothing is destroyed unseen. Every schedule answers what it would delete, with the list,
before Run now touches anything, and only names that parse as a stamp and a TTL are ever
candidates. A snapshot taken by hand is invisible to it.

Disks: one row per physical drive with its model, size, temperature and IO, and a usage
bar built from the filesystems the sampler can attribute to it. Attribution is new — a
mount's source device is resolved through sysfs to the drive behind it, following one
layer of device-mapper or md and folding NVMe namespaces the way the sampler does. A pool
member gets no usage bar, because one drive's share of a raidz pool is not a real number.
Net: every interface that is up is listed and tappable, defaulting to the one that has
actually carried traffic rather than whichever the kernel listed first.

A scan is saved beside the config and read back after a restart. The next scan starts
from it: on a pool with snapshots zfs diff names what changed and only those folders are
read; elsewhere a folder whose mtime is unchanged keeps its list and only its kept files
are stat'ed again. A cancelled scan keeps what it walked and Resume reads the rest.
Forget drops the saved result. The treemap is every file a tile, grouped by folder, with
no nested boxes: the folder chains of a Linux system made a staircase of empty headers.

Pick a disk, not a partition; the scan walks every filesystem it backs, as root when
the host allows, in a helper process that streams the tree back. A tree of folders
largest-first over a treemap of the selected folder, nested to the file and coloured by
kind, plus the thousand largest files. The rail no longer offers the hub-only pages
while a remote machine is being looked at.

A link to a hub page no longer reloads onto the last machine; a link from a hub-only page to

selection; the hub holds its machines to the rate it is itself running.

The process table's columns fit the box they are in, the rate control saves, curves are

A new stack is a folder in a home (where stacks are already kept: Dockhand's group here,
~/stacks elsewhere) with compose.yaml and an optional root-only .env, validated by compose
before it is kept and deployed the way its neighbours were — inside dockhand, or to a node
over tcp from the hub. New container is the same dialog on a form that writes the compose.
Homes are scanned, so undeployed stacks stay listed. Delete moves a stack's files to
.hamlab-trash; nothing is forced, and volumes and data are never touched.

Every icon is rendered from web/scripts/logo-source.png by scripts/icons.mjs: trimmed to
the artwork's own edge, transparent corners for the browser icons, a dark ground from the
artwork's palette for iOS (which paints transparency black) and for Android's maskable
icon, where the whole artwork sits inside the 80% safe circle. The login screen no longer
crops the logo to a circle or repeats the wordmark. Service worker cache bumped so
installed apps fetch the new files.

Stacks: deploy with every compose file (labels from inspect, not comma-joined ps);
refuse a stale overwrite; empty list without Docker. Alerts: firing state survives a
restart without re-announcing; vanished alerts are recorded as cleared with the reason;
rule values validated; 200 rules. Docker: 404 for a removed container's logs. Skins: four
palettes lifted to readable contrast. Phone: bigger toggles and swatches. Installer:
deploy republishes; an older published build is never installed silently.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Stacks are found from container labels; the file is resolved on the host or through an
orchestrator's mounts, and compose runs where the file makes sense (inside Dockhand here),
so a redeploy is identical to how the stack was deployed. Save validates with compose and
keeps a .hamlab-bak; Deploy / Update / Restart / Stop run as followed tasks.

Alerts: rules over sensors, watched fleet-wide from the hub; ntfy and webhook channels;

following logs, inspect, images/volumes/networks. Skins: HUD, Nord, Gruvbox, Catppuccin
(+Latte), Dracula, Tokyo Night, Solarized (+Light). Accents: per-machine colour.

Widgets: a bad pattern no longer silences every widget; malformed layouts load.
Shell: lost session returns to login at once; tab titles; Escape closes menus and dialogs.
Files: names are one path segment; unsaved edits ask before page/machine/tab changes;
only folders that opened are remembered. Terminals: unique default names; 64-char names.
API: queries capped at 10 000 values; 32 streams per client, 512 in all; only
/embed/widget is frameable. ZFS sensors: one unprivileged zpool list, no sudo journal spam.
Phone: 36 px inputs; dataset rows as wide as their cells. Machines: valid name pattern.
