## [0.2.5b2] - Unreleased
### Fixed
- **Multi-nozzle prints no longer collapse all filaments onto one nozzle (#1825, reporter @needo37)** — The single-active-extruder shortcut added in #851 (for #827) at `threemf_tools.py:354` runs `before` the per-filament `group_id` mapping, and fires whenever `extruder_nozzle_stats` reports exactly one extruder as having a nozzle installed. On the H2D / H2D Pro / X2D (2-nozzle) and H2C (3+-nozzle tool-changer), this field is data-driven from the slicer profile's enumerated nozzle volume types — when an HT-AMS or High-Flow nozzle's type isn't enumerated in the slice's profile (common with asymmetric extruder setups, e.g. HT-AMS feeding the right nozzle on an H2D), the slicer emits e.g. `['Standard#1', 'Standard#0']` even though the print genuinely uses both extruders. `sum(active_extruders) == 1` triggered → every filament was force-assigned to `physical_extruder_map[active_idx]`, the authoritative per-filament `group_id` was discarded, and the Filament Mapping panel showed both filaments badged **L** with the auto-match hard filter (`print_scheduler.py` `_compute_ams_mapping_for_printer` ~line 1239) blocking the wrong-nozzle tray as "Type not found". Bug is **parser-side and model-agnostic** — triggers purely on 3MF data shape, not on the attached AMS hardware: regular dual-AMS H2D installs typically slice to `['Standard#1', 'Standard#1']` (sum==2) and never enter the buggy branch, which is why this bug was invisible on the most common dual-AMS setup. Physical nozzle routing was **not** affected — the actual extrude path comes from the sliced gcode + the verbatim `nozzle_mapping` from the project_file (#1780), not from this parse — so the bug surfaced as auto-match failure + wrong L/R badge, not wrong-nozzle extrusion. **Fix.** Gate the single-active shortcut on `len(distinct_group_ids) <= 1` from `slice_info.config`. The slice_info parse is hoisted above the shortcut check (and reused by Priority 1) so the gate adds zero extra I/O. When the slice contains ≥2 distinct group_ids, the shortcut skips and the existing `group_id`-based Priority 1 mapping runs. The gate only **narrows** the shortcut path — it can't widen the buggy collapse onto any previously-working slice. The same condition generalizes to H2C and any future N-nozzle printer for free (no nozzle-count branching). **Tests.** Two new cases in `TestExtractNozzleMappingFrom3MF`: `test_single_active_under_report_with_multi_group_falls_through` pins the #1825 regression (`['Standard#1','Standard#0']` + group_ids `{0,1}` → `{1:1, 2:0}` not `{1:1, 2:1}`); `test_single_active_with_single_group_still_uses_shortcut` preserves the #851 behaviour (same stats + only `group_id=0` → shortcut still fires → `{1:1, 2:1}`). Existing `test_single_active_extruder_maps_all_slots` and `test_two_active_extruders_falls_through` stay green. **Suites.** `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/unit/test_scheduler_ams_mapping.py backend/tests/unit/test_scheduler_filament_deficit.py backend/tests/unit/test_scheduler_filament_override.py backend/tests/unit/test_fallback_archive_mqtt_filament.py backend/tests/integration/test_archives_api.py backend/tests/integration/test_library_api.py` 272/272 green. `ruff check backend/` clean. **Scope.** Backend-only, parse layer. No DB migration. No new permission. No frontend change. The L/R-only badge limitation on 3+-nozzle printers (H2C tool-changer) called out in the report is a separate cosmetic follow-up and not part of this fix.
- **Assign-spool picker note now visible on mobile (#793 follow-up, reporter @EmcetPL)** — The original fix for #793 added the spool note as an HTML `title=` tooltip on each picker button in `AssignSpoolModal.tsx` (lines 417 + 492). `title=` only surfaces on hover, which doesn't exist on touch devices — a phone user tapping a card just selects it, the note never appears. Users who store their tracking ID in the note field were blind on mobile. **Fix.** Render the note as a small muted truncated line directly under the weight on both the internal-inventory branch and the Spoolman branch: `text-[10px] text-bambu-gray/70 mt-1 truncate`, kept inside the `truthy &&` guard so empty notes don't add a blank row. The existing `title={spool.note}` is preserved on the new `
` element so desktop hover and mobile-browser long-press still surface the full untruncated text for notes that overflow the truncate. Keeps the 2-col mobile grid density unchanged (one extra `text-[10px]` line is ~12 px), no new state, no popover/modal, no new touch target. Mirrored across both branches per the inventory-parity rule so internal and Spoolman pickers stay shape-equal. Frontend `npm run build` clean. `npx vitest run AssignSpoolModal.test.tsx AssignToAmsModal.test.tsx` 23/23 green. **Scope.** No backend change. No new permission. No new i18n key (the note text is user-authored, not translatable).
- **API keys with Manage Library permission can now rename / delete / move library files (#1832, reporter @MorganMLGman)** — `require_ownership_permission` gates API keys on `all_perm` only (line 1668) — the comment block at line 1659 says OWN and ALL "both map to the same scope flag" for queue / archives / etc., so checking `all_perm` is the correct gate. Library deliberately broke that invariant by putting `LIBRARY_UPDATE_ALL` / `LIBRARY_DELETE_ALL` in `_APIKEY_DENIED_PERMISSIONS` while only the OWN variants were allowlisted under `can_manage_library`. Net effect: every library curation route (DELETE `/library/files/{id}`, PUT `/library/files/{id}` rename, POST `/library/files/move`) returned `403 "API keys cannot be used for administrative operations"` for keys with `can_manage_library=True`, contradicting the wiki docs that explicitly list "rename and delete your own library entries" under that scope. Only `POST /library/files/{id}/slice` worked (it doesn't go through `require_ownership_permission`). The "ALL stays admin-only because it crosses the user boundary" comment was internally inconsistent: API keys have no per-row ownership identity (`user=None`), so the route's `file.created_by_id != user.id` ownership check would `AttributeError` on a key acting under OWN anyway — the only path that ever worked was `can_modify_all=True`, which `all_perm` denial blocked outright. **Fix.** Fold `LIBRARY_UPDATE_ALL` and `LIBRARY_DELETE_ALL` into `_APIKEY_SCOPE_BY_PERMISSION` mapping to `can_manage_library` (matching the `can_queue` precedent — both `QUEUE_UPDATE_OWN` and `QUEUE_UPDATE_ALL` map to `can_queue` for the same per-key-identity reason). Remove both from `_APIKEY_DENIED_PERMISSIONS`. `LIBRARY_PURGE` deliberately stays denied — it bypasses the soft-delete window and is genuinely destructive, the kind of cross-boundary op the denylist exists for. **Tests.** 5 new cases in `TestLibraryPermissions` pinning the route-level contract — `test_apikey_with_manage_library_can_delete_file`, `test_apikey_with_manage_library_can_rename_file`, `test_apikey_with_manage_library_can_move_file`, `test_apikey_without_manage_library_still_blocked` (regression guard that the fix widens the allowed-permission set, not the per-key scope check), and `test_apikey_with_manage_library_still_cannot_purge` (LIBRARY_PURGE stays admin-only). The matrix drift-detection in `test_auth_apikey_rbac.py` updated to include `LIBRARY_UPDATE_OWN`, `LIBRARY_UPDATE_ALL`, `LIBRARY_DELETE_ALL` under `can_manage_library` and removes `LIBRARY_DELETE_ALL` from `_ADMIN_CASES`. `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/unit backend/tests/integration` green (6494). Ruff clean. **Scope.** No DB migration. No schema change. No frontend change. The wiki entry for API key permissions at `/features/api-keys/#available-permissions` now matches actual behaviour.
- **Administrators system group self-heals to include every current permission on upgrade — covers `printer_sensor_history:read` and every future new permission** — Fresh installs bootstrap the Administrators group with `ALL_PERMISSIONS` (every value in the `Permission` enum), so a fresh install always has the full set. On upgraded installs, `seed_default_groups()` in `backend/app/core/database.py` previously only backfilled the specific permissions explicitly listed in one-off migration blocks (`library:purge`, `archives:purge`, the OWN/ALL read-flag split, `orca_cloud:auth`, `pipelines:*`, …). Any permission added to the enum without a matching block silently stayed missing on existing admin rows, leaving admins gated out of the feature it controlled. The most recent gap was `printer_sensor_history:read` (Read Printer Sensor History was never granted to upgraded admin groups, so the Sensor History charts read as 403 for admins on installs seeded before that permission existed). **Fix.** Replaced the per-permission admin backfills with a single sync block: for the Administrators system group, append every value in `ALL_PERMISSIONS` that isn't already on the row. Additive only — custom permissions added by hand (e.g. plugin permissions, hand-edited rows) are preserved. The legacy admin-only backfills (`library:purge`/`archives:purge` block, the OWN/ALL read-flag block including `orca_cloud:auth` and the legacy `archives:read`/`library:read`/`queue:read` UI gates, and the Administrators branch of the pipeline backfill) are retired since they're subsumed by the sync. Non-admin backfills (Operators / Viewers OWN-tier read flags, Operators `orca_cloud:auth`, pipelines for non-admin groups, MakerWorld + `printers:clear_plate` cross-group adders) are untouched. **Tests.** Three new cases in `test_read_permission_backfill_migration.py`: `test_administrators_printer_sensor_history_read_backfilled` (the exact regression reported), `test_administrators_sync_covers_every_current_permission` (generic invariant — every `ALL_PERMISSIONS` value lands on Administrators after the sync, catches any future new permission without a one-off test), and `test_administrators_sync_is_additive_only` (hand-added custom permissions are preserved). 12/12 backfill-migration tests + 102/102 broader permission tests green; ruff clean.
- **Slicer Pipelines runs dashboard — native browser `` filters replaced with themed dropdowns** — The Pipeline / Status / Target filter row on the Print Queue → Pipelines tab now uses a bambu-themed `FilterDropdown` (button trigger styled like the existing filter chips, floating menu, optgroup-style headers for the Target picker's Specific printer / Printer class sections, hover + selected states with a check mark, closes on outside click and Escape) instead of the browser's native selects, which rendered as washed-out grey strips that fought the rest of the page palette. Same value/onChange contract — no behaviour change, just visuals. Also fixes a react-hooks/exhaustive-deps warning in `SlicerPipelinesPanel.tsx`: the inline `list?.pipelines ?? []` was returning a fresh empty array on every render, invalidating both downstream `useMemo` caches (target-options computation and filtered pipeline list) on every re-render. Wrapped in its own `useMemo` keyed on `list?.pipelines` so the reference is stable when the data is stable.
- **HMS Action buttons now reach the printer (#1830, H2D/H2C wrong-plate verification)** — The HMS Actions feature shipped in #1743 looked correct at the publish layer but the firmware silently dropped the commands at the printer, so clicking "Stop printing", "Problem solved and resume", or "Ignore and resume" did nothing visible on the live H2D — the modal kept reappearing, the print stayed paused, and the route still returned `200 OK`. Three independent bugs combined into one user-facing failure. **(1) Wrong command shape for resume / stop.** `hms_resume()` and `hms_stop()` sent the documented-but-not-actually-used `{"err": , "param": "reserve", "job_id": , ...}` shape that BambuStudio never produces. Bambu firmware rejects this silently — verified by injecting candidate shapes on `device//request` against a live H2D paused on a wrong-plate HMS: the `err`-bearing shape held PAUSE → PAUSE for the full window, the plain `{"print":{"command":"stop","param":"","sequence_id":"0"}}` transitioned PAUSE → FAILED in 1.7s, the same plain `resume` transitioned PAUSE → RUNNING in <2s. Fix: both helpers send the plain shape now, no `err`, no `job_id`, no `param:"reserve"`. **(2) `IGNORE_RESUME` mapped to the wrong command for paused prints.** The original mapping dispatched `idle_ignore` for both `IGNORE_RESUME` and `NO_REMINDER_NEXT_TIME`. `idle_ignore` is BambuStudio's "dismiss this warning" command and only works for non-pause warnings — verified against the H2D, idle_ignore on a paused print is silently rejected regardless of `err`. `hms_ignore()` now branches on `self.state.gcode_state == "PAUSE"`: paused → dispatch plain `resume` (which is what the button actually means on a paused print), running/idle → keep `idle_ignore` with the `type=0/1` persistence flag. `DONT_REMIND_NEXT_TIME` on PAUSE degrades to resume too — the "don't remind" flag can't ride along on a resume but the user's clicked-action intent (continue printing) is honoured. **(3) 64-bit `hms[]`-array faults truncated to a non-matching `err` (#1830 §(1)).** The hms[] parser at line 2740 built the short code as `f"{(attr >> 16) & 0xFFFF:04X}_{code & 0xFFFF:04X}"`, discarding 32 of the 64 bits of the fault identifier. For codes whose full form is e.g. `0C00_0300_0002_000C`, the truncated `0C00000C` doesn't match what the firmware compares against in `idle_ignore`. New `HMSError.full_code` field carries the canonical hex identifier — 16 chars `f"{attr:08X}{code:08X}"` for hms[]-sourced faults, 8 chars `f"{print_error:08X}"` for print_error-sourced faults (which are already 32-bit). Catalog lookup tries the 16-char form first and falls back to the 8-char short code so existing entries keep matching. Frontend echoes `error.full_code` back as `HmsActionBody.print_error` instead of recomputing the short code; the schema's pattern relaxes to `^[0-9A-Fa-f]{8}([0-9A-Fa-f]{8})?$` to accept both lengths. **(4) Masking failure — publish-success returned as printer-ack (#1830 §(3)).** `execute_hms_action` returned True the moment the publish succeeded, so any of the three bugs above produced `200 OK` while the printer ignored the command and the modal kept popping. The `/hms/execute-action` route now snapshots `(gcode_state, print_error, hms_errors count)` before dispatch, awaits `HMS_ACTION_ACK_WAIT_SECONDS` (default 2.5s, module-level so tests override), and returns `502 "Printer did not acknowledge HMS action within 2.5s"` if none of those moved. Every accepted HMS action mutates at least one of the three, so this is a clean signal. **Empirical verification.** A test harness on `device/0948BB540200427/request` confirmed each shape against the live H2D: a print sent with deliberately-wrong build plate raises `print_error=0x05008051` ("Detected build plate is not the same as the Gcode file"), the printer enters `gcode_state=PAUSE`, and the new command shapes transition out correctly. The current Bambuddy code (before this fix) failed to act on every button. **Tests.** `test_hms_actions.py` shape assertions rewritten — `test_resume_is_plain_no_err_no_job_id`, `test_stop_is_plain_no_err_no_job_id`, `test_ignore_resume_dispatches_resume_when_print_paused`, `test_ignore_resume_uses_idle_ignore_when_not_paused`, `test_dont_remind_dispatches_resume_when_paused`, `test_dont_remind_uses_idle_ignore_type_one_when_not_paused`, `test_idle_ignore_accepts_16_char_full_code`. New `TestHMSFullCode` class in `test_bambu_mqtt.py` pins the parser contract — `test_hms_array_path_populates_16_char_full_code`, `test_print_error_path_populates_8_char_full_code`, `test_hms_array_catalog_lookup_tries_16_char_first`, `test_hms_array_catalog_falls_back_to_8_char`. New integration cases in `test_printers_api.py` — `test_execute_hms_action_no_printer_ack_returns_502`, `test_execute_hms_action_accepts_16_char_full_code`. The malformed-input test now covers 9- and 15-char rejections (the relaxed pattern accepts 8 OR 16, nothing in between). `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/unit/services/test_hms_actions.py backend/tests/unit/services/test_bambu_mqtt.py backend/tests/unit/services/test_printer_manager.py backend/tests/integration/test_printers_api.py` green (509 + 181). `ruff check` clean. Frontend `npm run build` clean. **Scope.** No DB migration. No new permission. No new i18n key — the frontend toast on action failure already uses the existing `hmsErrors.actionFailed` string, which now gets the more accurate "Printer did not acknowledge" message instead of "Failed to send action". The `HMSError.full_code` field defaults to `""` so old in-memory state surviving a backend upgrade (without an MQTT reconnect) degrades to the existing 8-char short code via the frontend's `||` fallback.
### Added
- **Slicer Pipelines — multi-copy batches, class targeting, fanout strategies, runs dashboard, retry-failed, live WS updates (#1425 PR C — completes the v3 design)** — The PR A/B drop turned slice-modal preset bundles into one-click dispatches with a pinned target printer. PR C closes the original issue with full production-batch semantics: an operator picks a saved pipeline, types in a number of copies, and Bambuddy slices once and distributes the prints across a fleet according to the pipeline's chosen fanout strategy. The runs dashboard surfaces every active and historical run with filters, per-row expandable per-copy status, cancel-in-flight, and retry-failed-copies. WebSocket pushes keep the dashboard and the in-Settings "Last run" chip live without polling. **Backend.** `PipelineRunCreateRequest.copies` (Pydantic `ge=1, le=1000`) replaces the implicit 1 from PR B; the orchestration loop creates one `PipelineJob` row per copy. `SlicerPipelineUpdate` accepts `target_kind` (`specific_printer` / `printer_class`), `target_model_class` (Bambu model code: A1 / A1 Mini / P1P / P1S / P2S / X1 / X1C / X1E / H2D / H2D Pro / H2C / X2D), and `fanout_strategy` (`max_parallel` / `round_robin` / `fill_one_first`). A new `pipeline_max_copies` setting (default 50, Pydantic `ge=1, le=1000`) gates the copies input in the Run-with-pipeline modal and is enforced again at `POST /run` time so an API caller can't bypass the cap. PR C also adds `PipelineRun.parent_run_id` (nullable FK to itself, ON DELETE SET NULL) so retry runs link back to the run whose failed copies they re-attempt. **Eligibility for class targeting.** The matcher in `services/pipeline_eligibility.py` now branches on `pipeline.target_kind`: the specific-printer path is unchanged (PR B parity), the new class-targeting path enumerates every `Printer` whose `model` matches `pipeline.target_model_class`, runs the per-printer slot-by-slot check for each via a `status_lookup` closure that the route handler hands in (so the matcher stays pure-ish for unit tests), and returns a top-level `printer_reports: list[PerPrinterReport]` with `ok` derived as `any` across the candidates. New issue kinds: `no_class_matches` (the install has zero printers in the chosen model class) and `class_not_set` (target_kind is `printer_class` but no model was picked). The lenient-policy story is the same — operators can `Run anyway` past blocking issues, and `PipelineRun.eligibility_overridden` is set so the audit trail shows it. **Orchestration + fanout.** A new `_pick_assignments(pipeline, copies)` helper returns `[(printer_id_or_None, target_model_or_None), …]` of length copies per the picked strategy. `max_parallel` sets `target_model=pipeline.target_model_class` on every queue item and leaves `printer_id=None` — the existing print scheduler's model-based dispatch picks any idle matching printer per item; the result is that multiple printers grab work in parallel without any new scheduler code. `round_robin` enumerates eligible printers (`is_active=True`, model matches) ordered by id and assigns copy `i` to `eligible[i % len(eligible)]` — each item gets a fixed `printer_id`, the wear distributes evenly. `fill_one_first` pins every copy to `eligible[0]` so a one-printer fleet stays one-printer even when others come online mid-run; the documented trade-off is that a printer failure freezes the queue at that printer until the operator intervenes. All three flows reuse the same slice-once path; the slice runs through `slice_dispatch.enqueue` exactly as PR B did so the persistent progress toast renders end-to-end for batches just like single-copy runs. **Routes.** `GET /pipeline-runs?limit&offset&pipeline_id&status` is the dashboard endpoint — newest-first, paginated, filterable by pipeline and persisted snapshot status. `POST /pipeline-runs/{id}/retry-failed` counts the parent's failed-or-cancelled jobs at the live (queue-entry-aware) status level, builds a fresh `PipelineRunCreateRequest` with `copies=that count` and `force=True` (operator already accepted eligibility on the parent), routes it through the existing `run_pipeline` handler, and stamps `parent_run_id` on the result. Returns 400 when the parent's source or pipeline was deleted, or when there are no failed copies to retry. `POST /pipeline-runs/{id}/cancel` extends PR B's cancel to cascade across N queue entries — only the ones still in `pending` / `queued` are touched so in-flight prints continue on the printer (operator must Stop on the machine). **WebSocket.** New `pipeline_run_updated` event type carries the full materialised `PipelineRunResponse` and fires on every state transition (`queued → slicing → dispatching → in_progress → completed | failed | partial_failure | cancelled`). Per-user routing via `ws_manager.broadcast_to_user(run.created_by, …)` so each operator sees their own runs without cross-user noise; auth-disabled installs broadcast to all connections (PR B's pattern). The frontend's `useWebSocket` switch handles it by invalidating both `['pipeline-runs-all']` (the dashboard) and `['pipeline-runs', pipeline_id]` (the per-pipeline "Last run" chip in Settings). The dashboard still polls every 15 s as a belt-and-suspenders for missed messages. **Run status roll-up.** A new `_roll_up_run_status` function computes the run-level status from the per-job statuses at read time: all-completed → `completed`, any in-flight → `in_progress`, some completed + some failed → the new `partial_failure` status (this is what gets the Retry-failed button), all failed → `failed`. The persisted snapshot is still written on terminal transitions for the dashboard's status filter to remain useful. `copies_completed` / `_failed` / `_cancelled` / `_in_progress` counts ride on the response so per-row "1/3 · 2 failed" summaries don't need a second query. **Frontend.** The Settings → Workflow → Pipelines pipeline editor grows three new controls in the edit form: a radio for `target_kind` (Specific printer / Printer class), a model-class picker filtered to the models present on at least one installed `Printer` row (so users can't pick "H2C" if they only have X1Cs), and a fanout-strategy radio with the three options labelled with their use cases. The read-only row reflects class targeting with a "X1C · Round robin" line in place of the printer name. `RunWithPipelineModal` grows a number input for copies bounded by `settings.pipeline_max_copies`, accepts class-targeted pipelines (the "Apply pipeline" button is enabled when the pipeline has either a pinned printer OR a class target), and the pipeline-list row shows "Any X1C" instead of a printer name for class pipelines. The "Run pipeline" Setting → Workflow → Queue & Dispatch sub-tab gets a new "Slicer Pipeline limits" card with the max-copies input (bounded 1–1000 client-side, server enforces the same). **New dashboard page at `/pipelines/runs`** (sidebar entry under Print Queue, gated on `pipelines:read`). Lists every run across every pipeline with two dropdown filters (pipeline + persisted snapshot status) and pagination at 25 per page. Each row shows pipeline name, status chip (`partial_failure` is amber), source file, created-at timestamp, and "{completed}/{copies}" + "{failed} failed" rollup. Click the chevron to expand a per-copy panel listing each `PipelineJob`'s assigned printer + status + error message. In-flight runs get a Cancel button; partial-failure / failed runs get a Retry-failed button. **i18n.** ~43 new keys across `nav.pipelineRuns`, `pipelineRuns.*` (title / filters / pagination / job-status chips / toasts), `settings.pipelines.field.*` (targetKind / fanout / class), `settings.pipelines.runs.status.partial_failure`, `settings.pipelineLimits.*`, `library.runWithPipeline.*` (copies / copiesHint / classTarget / issue.noClassMatches / issue.classNotSet), and `common.previous` / `common.next` — translated in all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW). Parity check 5516 leaves per locale, no English fallback. `Copies` / `{{n}} copies` / `max {{n}}` added to the French + Italian cognate allowlists where they're genuine. **Tests.** Six new backend cases in `test_pipeline_runs_api.py` covering copies-cap rejection (schema gate at 1000), 3-copy run creates 3 jobs with sequential `copy_index`, class eligibility with two X1C candidates returns a 2-entry `printer_reports` array, class eligibility with no matching printers in install returns `no_class_matches`, dashboard list endpoint with pagination + status filter, retry-failed correctly counts failed jobs from a partial-failure parent and stamps `parent_run_id`. Plus the existing 16 PR A/B cases were lightly updated where `class_not_set` is now a valid no-target signal alongside `printer_not_set`. Five new frontend cases in `PipelineRunsPage.test.tsx` pin the dashboard's empty state, list rendering, Cancel button on in-flight runs, Retry-failed button on partial-failure runs, and per-row expand to show jobs. Three updated frontend cases (`RunWithPipelineModal.test.tsx`) assert the new four-arg signature on `runPipeline` (`pipelineId, source, force, copies`). One updated `SettingsPage.test.tsx` sidebar-order test reflects the new `pipelineRuns` nav entry between `queue` and `projects`. **Suites.** `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/` 6539/6539 green; `npx vitest run` 2284/2284 green (173 files); `npm run build` clean; `python -m ruff check backend/` clean; `node scripts/check-i18n-parity.mjs` clean. **Scope.** PR C closes the v3 design — no further pipeline PRs are queued. The existing print scheduler's model-based dispatch (`PrintQueueItem.target_model` + `target_location` + `required_filament_types`) is the only thing that makes class targeting actually distribute work; PR C just plugs into it. The `fill_one_first` strategy's "one printer fails, queue stalls" trade-off is documented in the editor's option-row hover-hint and in the orchestrator code comment — it's the correct behaviour for "I want one printer to finish a batch end-to-end" and the wrong behaviour for "I want resilience"; the right strategy for resilience is `max_parallel`. **Cross-printer-class pipelines** (e.g. one pipeline targeting "any X1C OR P1S") remain out of scope — make two pipelines, one per class.
- **Slicer Pipelines — Archive entry point + progress toast for pipeline-driven slicing (#1425 PR B follow-up)** — Two real gaps from the PR B drop. (1) The Run-with-pipeline button only existed in the file manager — operators who keep their working files in archives had to copy them out to the library to use a pipeline. (2) Triggering a slice via a pipeline produced a silent multi-second-to-minute wait — the manual SliceModal flow has the sticky `Slicing X — Generating G-code 75%` persistent toast, the pipeline path went through `asyncio.create_task` directly and never registered with `SliceJobTracker`. **Fix.** (1) `POST /slicer-pipelines/{id}/check-eligibility` and `POST /slicer-pipelines/{id}/run` now accept `source_archive_id` as an alternative to `source_library_file_id` (XOR — Pydantic validator rejects both-set and neither-set), and the eligibility-check and orchestration paths branch via `_resolve_source` which reads `archive.source_3mf_path` with a fallback to `archive.file_path`. `PipelineRun.source_archive_id` is a new nullable FK column (Postgres + SQLite `ALTER TABLE` in `run_migrations` — idempotent via `_safe_execute`). `PipelineRunResponse` echoes the field. ArchiveCard's context menu picks up a `Run with pipeline` item alongside the existing Slice action (only on source archives — gcode archives already have Print + Open in BambuStudio), gated on `useSlicerApi` + `pipelines:run`. Path-safety: `Path(base_dir) / archive.source_3mf_path` carries a `SEC-PATH-OK` marker citing the upload-time validator at `_resolve_source_3mf_path` (same comment style as `routes/archives.py:3955`); the `LibraryFile.file_path` site gets the same treatment. (2) The pipeline orchestrator is now the `run` callable of a `slice_dispatch.enqueue` call — the same dispatcher the manual `SliceModal` flow uses — instead of a bare `asyncio.create_task`. The SliceJob's lifecycle (`pending → running → completed/failed`) drives the existing progress toast end to end: same persistent toast, same `Generating G-code 75%` weave from the sidecar's `--pipe` channel, same auto-replace with a transient success/error toast on terminal. `PipelineRun.slice_job_id` is set on the run row before the route returns 202, so the frontend can call `useSliceJobTracker().trackJob(slice_job_id, source.kind, source.filename)` from `RunWithPipelineModal`'s `runMutation.onSuccess` — same one-call surface that `SliceModal`'s slice mutation already uses. (3) `RunWithPipelineModal`'s `source` prop is now `{kind: 'libraryFile' | 'archive', id, filename}` (mirrors `SliceModal.SliceSource`); `api.checkPipelineEligibility` + `api.runPipeline` take a discriminated-union source argument and route to the right backend field. `PipelineRun` TS type grows `source_archive_id`. **Tests.** Three new backend cases in `test_pipeline_runs_api.py` — archive-source happy path (creates a PrintArchive row + on-disk file, posts with `source_archive_id`, verifies the response carries `source_archive_id` + `slice_job_id` from a stubbed `slice_dispatch.enqueue`), XOR rejection both-set, XOR rejection neither-set. The existing three run/cancel cases were updated to patch `backend.app.services.slice_dispatch.slice_dispatch.enqueue` (the new mock target) instead of the removed `_run_pipeline_orchestration` helper, and the run-happy-path now asserts `slice_job_id == 9001` arrives on the response. One new frontend case in `RunWithPipelineModal.test.tsx` pins the archive flow end to end (`checkPipelineEligibility` called with `{kind: 'archive', id: 7}`, then `runPipeline` with the same). The existing fast/slow path tests were updated to wrap in `SliceJobTrackerProvider` (the new `useSliceJobTracker` hook requires it) and to assert the new discriminated-union source argument. **Suites.** `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/` 6533/6533 green; `npx vitest run` 2279/2279 green (172 files); `npm run build` clean; `python -m ruff check backend/` clean; `node scripts/check-i18n-parity.mjs` clean. **Scope.** No new i18n keys — both fixes reuse the existing PR B keys. No new permission. The archive flow only branches at the source-resolution layer; everything downstream (eligibility, slice, queue dispatch) is the same code path the library flow uses. PR C scope (multi-copy + class targeting + fanout) is unchanged.
- **Slicer Pipelines — Run a pipeline on a file with one click (#1425 PR B)** — PR A landed the bundle (save & apply preset slots in the SliceModal). PR B turns that bundle into an actual one-click dispatcher: file-manager rows now carry a `Run with pipeline ▾` button that slices the source through the pipeline's pinned printer/process/filament/bed-type combo and enqueues the print on the pipeline's pinned target printer. **Scope.** Single-target dispatch — `target_kind='specific_printer'` only. Multi-copy batch + class targeting + fanout strategies are PR C; the schema columns are already in place from PR A so PR C is code-only. **Backend.** Two new SQLAlchemy models — `PipelineRun` (one row per Run-pipeline click, carries the slice_job + sliced_library_file ids + snapshot status) and `PipelineJob` (one row per copy; PR B always 1, PR C variable). Soft-link to slicer_pipelines via `ondelete='SET NULL'` so run history survives a pipeline delete; same for source_library_file. **`status`** on the run is a *persisted snapshot* that gets terminal transitions written (slice failure, cancel, completion); in-flight reads roll up the live state of the linked queue entry via `_compute_run_status` — that keeps the status accurate (`pending → printing → completed`) without a background watcher writing on every queue tick. **Eligibility matcher** at `services/pipeline_eligibility.py` — given a pipeline + the live `PrinterState` from `printer_manager.get_status`, returns a structured report with typed issues: `printer_not_set`, `printer_not_found`, `printer_disabled` (from `Printer.is_active` shipped with #1476), `printer_offline`, `filament_type_mismatch`, `filament_color_mismatch`, `ams_slot_missing`, `filament_unverified` (cloud/standard tier presets can't be statically read here; surface as info, not a block). Canonical filament-type map mirrors `print_scheduler._canonical_filament_type` so `PLA Basic` / `PLA Matte` / etc. all collapse to `PLA` for the type comparison; colour normalises to six-hex-digit lowercase. **Eligibility is lenient with confirmation** — the report drives the frontend confirmation modal, but the user can `Run anyway` (sets `eligibility_overridden=True` on the run row so the audit trail shows which runs bypassed pre-flight). **Routes.** Two new routers — `pipeline_run_create_router` mounted under `/slicer-pipelines` (POST `/{id}/check-eligibility`, POST `/{id}/run`, GET `/{id}/runs?limit=N`) and `pipeline_run_router` at `/pipeline-runs` (GET `/{id}`, POST `/{id}/cancel`). `POST /run` returns 202 with the run shape; orchestration happens in a fire-and-forget `asyncio.create_task` that opens its own DB session (the request's session is closed by the time it runs) and walks: status='slicing' → `slice_and_persist` with the pipeline's `SliceRequest` → on success `status='dispatching'` + insert `PrintQueueItem` with `printer_id=target_printer_id, library_file_id=sliced_library_file_id`. The existing scheduler picks the queue entry up on its next tick. `POST /run` with eligibility issues and no `force` returns 409 with the report inside `detail` so the frontend can render the same confirmation modal it would for an explicit pre-flight; `force=true` bypasses the 409 but a missing `target_printer_id` still 400s (defence in depth — the UI can't enqueue the print without a target). `POST /cancel` is idempotent on terminal states and cascades to the linked queue entry when its status is still `pending` / `queued` (in-flight prints continue — operator must Stop on the printer itself). **SlicerPipeline.target_kind / target_printer_id** become writable via `PUT /slicer-pipelines/{id}` — the schema accepts both fields, the route treats `target_printer_id=0` as "clear" (the empty-`` HTML coercion) and a positive value as a literal FK. **Frontend.** SlicerPipelinesPanel in Settings → Workflow → Pipelines extends its edit form with a target-printer `` (populated from `api.getPrinters()`); pipelines without a target render an amber "Set a target printer to run this" hint in the row + a "Set a target printer before running this pipeline" warning at the bottom. Last-run summary appears inline per row — small `Last run: completed · 27/06/2026, 14:23` line driven by `GET /slicer-pipelines/{id}/runs?limit=1` with a 15 s `refetchInterval` so the chip ticks while a run is in flight. `RunStatusBadge` colour-codes the seven states. **New component `RunWithPipelineModal`** at `components/RunWithPipelineModal.tsx` — two-step dialog: step 1 lists the user's pipelines (each row shows the pinned target printer; pipelines without a target are disabled with a `No target printer set` hint), step 2 is the eligibility confirmation. Fast path: ok=true skips step 2 entirely and fires the run straight from the pipeline pick. Slow path: shows per-issue text via the `IssueText` mapper — eg. `Filament slot 1: expected PLA, AMS has PETG` for `filament_type_mismatch`, `AMS slot 2 not available on this printer` for `ams_slot_missing` — then `Run anyway` posts with `force=true`. **FileManagerPage integration**: FileCard's action menu picks up a `Run with pipeline` entry (gated on the new `pipelines:run` permission); list-view rows get a matching inline Play-icon button so list users have the same entry point as card users. Both flow into the same `setRunPipelineFile(file)` state which renders the modal. The action is only offered on slice-eligible files (3MF / STL / STEP) and only when `use_slicer_api` is on — matches the existing Slice button gating, since a non-slice-eligible file can't reach the slice step in any case. **Frontend types**: client.ts grows `PipelineEligibilityReport`, `PipelineRun`, `PipelineJob`, `PipelineRunListResponse`, plus six new `api.*` methods (`checkPipelineEligibility`, `runPipeline`, `listPipelineRuns`, `getPipelineRun`, `cancelPipelineRun`, and the updated `updateSlicerPipeline` which now accepts `target_kind` + `target_printer_id`). The `Permission` union also gets `pipelines:read | pipelines:write | pipelines:run` — these were on the backend Permission enum from PR A but had been missed in the frontend union (caught when TS rejected `hasPermission('pipelines:run')`). **i18n.** ~36 new keys across `library.runWithPipeline.*` (modal title / confirm / source-hint / pipeline-hint / target-hint / Run-anyway / 8 issue-kind strings / 2 toast / empty-state / no-target hint) and `settings.pipelines.field.targetPrinter` / `field.noTarget` / `noTargetHint` / `noTargetWarning` / `runs.lastRun` + seven `runs.status.*` strings — translated in all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW). Parity check 5473 leaves per locale, no English fallback. The string `slicing` was added to `IT_COGNATES` (genuine cognate — same word in Italian). **Tests.** 13 new backend integration cases in `test_pipeline_runs_api.py` covering PUT target write + clear-via-0 + check-eligibility (printer_not_set / printer_disabled cascade with offline / fully-clear AMS-match) + run flow (409 on issues+!force / 400 on force+!target / 202 on clean path with creation of run+job) + list/get 404s + cancel (404 / marks queued / idempotent on terminal). Slicing itself is stubbed via `patch(..._run_pipeline_orchestration)` so CI runs without a live sidecar. 4 new vitest cases in `RunWithPipelineModal.test.tsx` pin the modal's two-step flow: empty state, disabled pipeline-without-target, fast-path (issues empty → modal closes immediately after `runPipeline(..., false)`), slow-path (issues shown → `Run anyway` posts with `force=true`). **Suites.** `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/` 6530/6530 green; `npx vitest run` 2278/2278 green (172 files); `npm run build` clean; `python -m ruff check backend/` clean; `node scripts/check-i18n-parity.mjs` clean. **What's out of scope for PR B.** Multi-copy (`copies > 1`), class targeting (`target_kind='printer_class'`), fanout strategies, the Pipeline Runs dashboard — all PR C. Painted multi-filament 3MFs still hit the upstream OrcaSlicer CLI gate (OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer#13774); the slice step inside the pipeline run fails the same way the standalone slice route does, the run rolls up to `status='failed'` with the slicer's error string in `error_message`. The print queue's existing AMS / filament check + the printer-side error path remain authoritative for what actually happens at the machine — pipeline eligibility is a *pre-flight*, not a hard guard.
- **Slicer Pipelines — save & reuse a preset bundle in one click (#1425 PR A, requested by @TheUltimateC0der)** — Top feature in the first sponsor vote. The SliceModal forces the user to pick four slots every time: printer / process / filament(s) / bed type. For fleet production that's tedious and error-prone — operators want a named "Production PLA" bundle they can apply with one click on every file and every printer. **PR A scope.** Definitions only. The new model `slicer_pipelines` materialises the bundle plus future-PR columns (`target_kind`, `target_printer_id`, `target_model_class`, `fanout_strategy`) so PR B (single-target dispatch) and PR C (multi-copy batch with capability-matched fanout) are code-only, not migrations. The bundle is independently useful in PR A as an ergonomic improvement: pipelines are picked from the SliceModal, applied to the four slots, then sliced through the existing flow. No new dispatch behaviour yet. **Backend.** Model `SlicerPipeline` (`models/slicer_pipeline.py`), Pydantic schemas `SlicerPipelineCreate` / `Update` / `Response` reusing the existing `PresetRef` shape from `schemas/slicer.py`, CRUD routes at `/api/v1/slicer-pipelines/` (`GET list`, `POST create`, `GET/PUT/DELETE by id`). Soft-delete via `is_deleted` so PR B+ run history can still resolve pipeline metadata after the operator removes one. Listed newest-first by `id DESC` (more reliable than `created_at` under back-to-back inserts whose DateTime precision can tie). Routes use explicit `await db.commit()` after the mutation (matches the `routes/library.py` pattern) so the response shape returns the committed row. **Permissions.** Three new `Permission` values: `PIPELINES_READ`, `PIPELINES_WRITE`, `PIPELINES_RUN`. PR A only consumes the first two; `RUN` is defined now so PR C doesn't need to backfill. `Administrators` and `Operators` get all three; `Viewers` get `PIPELINES_READ`. A backfill block in `seed_default_groups()` adds them to existing groups on upgrade (mirrors the `library:purge` / `archives:purge` pattern from earlier). All three are added to `_APIKEY_DENIED_PERMISSIONS` so they fail closed for any API-key surface — PR B / PR C may move `PIPELINES_RUN` onto `can_queue` once the dispatch lands. **Frontend.** Settings → Workflow tab is split into two sub-tabs mirroring the Authentication tab's pattern: **Queue & Dispatch** (the existing Workflow content) and **Pipelines** (the new manager). The Workflow sidebar entry stays single — no expandable submenu — and the sub-tab choice is reflected in the URL (`?tab=queue&sub=pipelines`) for deep-linking. **SlicerPipelinesPanel** lists saved pipelines with inline rename, soft-delete, and a stale-preset warning when a referenced preset no longer resolves against the unified-presets listing (e.g. an `orca_cloud` preset deleted in OrcaSlicer; the pipeline still saves, the warning prompts a re-save from the SliceModal). Full pipeline creation lives in the **SliceModal** rather than Settings — the user has already done the four-slot work there. The modal grows an `Apply pipeline ▾` dropdown plus a `Save as pipeline` button above the existing preset dropdowns. Apply fills all four slot states (`printerPreset`, `processPreset`, `bedType`, `filamentPresets[]`); the filament list right-pads from current state so a pipeline with fewer entries than the current source's slot count keeps the existing tail (lets the same pipeline apply across single-color and multi-color files). Save captures the four-slot picks under an inline-named pipeline. Stale-preset warning shows on the Settings list, not blocking apply, so an old pipeline with a one-deleted-preset can still be re-applied and re-saved with the new pick. **i18n.** ~30 new keys across `settings.pipelines.*` and `slice.pipelines.*` plus `settings.tabs.queueDispatch` / `queuePipelines`, translated in all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW). Parity check 5437 leaves per locale, no English fallback. `Pipeline` / `Pipelines` / `Filament {{n}}` added to `IDENTICAL_TO_EN_ALLOWED` for the locales where they're genuine cognates (de / es / fr / it / pt-BR / tr). **Tests.** Backend: 11 integration cases in `test_slicer_pipelines_api.py` covering empty list, create + round-trip, get-by-id, partial PUT preserves untouched fields, filament list replaces wholesale, soft-delete hides from list + GET-by-id, 404s on missing, schema rejection of empty filament list + invalid PresetRef source, newest-first ordering. Frontend: 3 new SliceModal cases (apply-pipeline dropdown disabled-empty / apply-sets-state / save-as-pipeline-round-trip) plus 2 SettingsPage cases (sub-tab nav renders + Pipelines deep-link). Existing SliceModal tests adjusted via a `presetSelects()` helper that filters out the new Apply-pipeline combobox so historical `selects[0]` indexing into printer/process/filament remains stable. **Suites.** `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/` 6517/6517 green; `npx vitest run` 2274/2274 green (171 files); `npm run build` clean; `python -m ruff check backend/` clean; `node scripts/check-i18n-parity.mjs` clean. **Scope.** No new dispatch behaviour yet — pipelines are a preset-bundle convenience layer in PR A. PR B adds single-target dispatch (the `target_kind='specific_printer'` path), PR C adds multi-copy batch with capability matching + the three fanout strategies (`max_parallel` / `fill_one_first` / `round_robin`). The `Run pipeline` action mentioned in the original issue is PR B/C and intentionally not exposed in this drop. Painted multi-filament 3MFs still hit the upstream OrcaSlicer CLI gate (`OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer#13774`); the slice fails, the pipeline doesn't pre-validate.
- **Sticky upload-progress toast restored for scheduler-driven dispatch (#1625 follow-up)** — `#1625` (`Unify print dispatch through the scheduler`) moved every print's FTP push to the printer into the server-side scheduler tick, which means the user's click no longer carries an XHR with `progress` events — the old browser-side upload modal had nothing to show because there was no browser-side upload anymore. Users only saw the queue item flip to "active" with no visibility into the multi-second to multi-minute FTP push + the H2D/H2D Pro 80–210 s `project_file` digestion window before the printer actually started extruding. **Fix.** The legacy bg-dispatch toast rendering from `0b43ac0d:frontend/src/contexts/ToastContext.tsx` lines 510–650 is **ported back in place verbatim** — same DOM tree, same Tailwind classes, same `formatFileSize` bytes line, same uppercase status chip, same collapse chevron, same `awaitingPrinter` derivation, same auto-dismiss-when-all-terminal — only adapted to read from the four scheduler-side WS events introduced here instead of the legacy `background-dispatch` aggregate event. **Materialization only on actual upload start.** The toast appears when the FTP push to the printer starts (`queue_item_uploading`), NOT on `POST /queue` — a draft that emitted at queue-add time made the toast jump to "Dispatched" before any upload had happened. Four backend lifecycle WS events drive the rendering: `queue_item_uploading` (start of FTP, carries `printer_name` + `total_bytes` from `file_path.stat().st_size`), `queue_item_upload_progress` (throttled byte-level updates — first call always emits + emit when ≥200 ms elapsed OR ≥256 KB transferred since last emit, plus always emit at `bytes_transferred >= total_bytes`; this matches the legacy `background_dispatch.py:614-615` gates 1:1 so the bar feels identical on small AND large files; a single shared `_UploadProgressBridge` instance bridges from the FTP executor thread back to the asyncio loop via `run_coroutine_threadsafe`), `queue_item_acked` (watchdog confirmed printer transitioned out of `pre_state`), `queue_item_failed` (any error, with a `reason` key the toast looks up as `dispatchToast.failed.{reason}` for upload-vs-start-command differentiation, generic fallback). **No `queue_item_dispatched` event** — the legacy bg-dispatch path kept `status='processing'` from upload start until printer ack, and the "Awaiting printer…" subtitle is derived purely from `upload_progress_pct >= 99.9` (the legacy `uploadDoneAwaitingPrinter` trick at line 568-572). An explicit `dispatched` event would push the status chip out of `PROCESSING` prematurely — which is exactly what the first screenshot-iteration showed. **Per-user routing.** New `ws_manager.broadcast_to_user(user_id, msg)` filters connections by `websocket.state.bambuddy_principal_user_id` — resolved once at WS connect time via a `select(User.id).where(User.username == principal)` lookup so per-message routing is O(connections) not O(connections × DB). Auth-disabled installs route `user_id=None` to all connections, matching the legacy single-user toast behaviour. The watchdog success path receives `created_by_id` via a new kwarg so the static `_watchdog_print_start` method can still emit the `acked` event without re-fetching the queue item. **Backend.** ~110 LOC across 3 files: `core/websocket.py` (`broadcast_to_user` + four event helpers, `bambuddy_principal_user_id` filter on each connection), `api/routes/websocket.py` (principal username → User.id resolve at connect, stashed on `websocket.state.bambuddy_principal_user_id`), `services/print_scheduler.py` (`_UploadProgressBridge` thread-safe throttle class, `queue_item_uploading` emitted before FTP with `printer.name`, `progress_callback=` plumbed into both the `with_ftp_retry` and direct `upload_file_async` branches via `**kwargs`, `queue_item_failed` at the FTP-fail spot, watchdog success path emits `acked` on both Phase A and Phase B exits). **Frontend.** Rendering ported in place to `contexts/ToastContext.tsx` (`dispatchData` field on `Toast`, ingest `useEffect` mapping the four `bambuddy:dispatch-toast` event types to legacy `DispatchToastJob` shape, terminal-state auto-dismiss `useEffect`; legacy rendering block reused 1:1 minus the cancel button — BG dispatch's `/background-dispatch/{id}` DELETE doesn't exist in the scheduler model and adding it is out of scope). `hooks/useWebSocket.ts` forwards the four `queue_item_*` cases via `window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('bambuddy:dispatch-toast', { detail }))`, matching the existing `plate-not-empty` / `unknown-tag` patterns. **i18n.** 11 keys × 11 locales under `dispatchToast` (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW): `untitled` / `startingPrints` / `progressSummary` (header `{{complete}}/{{total}} complete • Processing: {{processing}}` — `Dispatched: X` from the legacy summary was dropped because the scheduler has no pre-upload "dispatched" state) / `expandDetails` / `collapseDetails` / `awaitingPrinter` / `status.{processing|completed|failed}` / `failed.{generic|upload_failed|start_command_failed}` / `dismiss`. Locale parity check 5401 leaves per locale, no English fallback. **Tests.** Backend `test_ws_broadcast_to_user.py` pins the routing contract (filter by user_id, fan-out on None, payload shape with `printer_name` for `uploading`, server-side pct compute including divide-by-zero); `test_upload_progress_bridge.py` pins the throttle (first call always emits, 256 KB byte gate honoured even when time gate would skip, completion always emits, no-op on zero bytes, no-op when no loop). Frontend `__tests__/contexts/DispatchToastContext.test.tsx` pins the **materialization-on-uploading invariant** (stray progress / acked event before any `uploading` does NOT render — regression guard), the uploading → "Awaiting printer…" → acked lifecycle with status chip staying `PROCESSING` through the whole upload (regression guard for the screenshot-reported "Dispatched: 1 immediately" bug), 3.5 s auto-dismiss when terminal, concurrent jobs sharing one wrapper, collapse + dismiss buttons. **Suites.** `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/unit/test_ws_broadcast_to_user.py backend/tests/unit/test_upload_progress_bridge.py backend/tests/integration/test_print_queue_api.py` green; `vitest run src/__tests__/contexts/` 49/49 green; `ruff check backend/` clean; `npm run build` clean. **Scope.** No DB migration. No new permission. The `bambuddy:dispatch-toast` window event is internal to the frontend bundle, not a public hook — third-party plugins should not subscribe to it. The 0–30 s scheduler-tick pickup wait is unchanged; this fix only addresses *visibility* of what happens once the upload starts. Tiny test files that upload in a single FTP chunk will still jump straight to "Awaiting printer…" because the first-and-last progress callback is one and the same event — same edge as the legacy bg-dispatch behaviour on sub-256 KB files.
- **Sponsor-prompt thresholds lowered to fire for typical new installs** — The in-app sponsor toast in `useSponsorPrompt` was calibrated for power users: the lowest print milestone was `100`, the lowest archive milestone was `50`, the lowest filament-cost milestone was `100`. A check of recent Matomo data showed the toast firing very rarely (`?from=app-toast-prints-100` = 4 visits, `?from=app-toast-archives-50` = 3 visits in a 7-day window) — most installs simply never reach those bars, especially with the install base ~doubling since March. Calibration widened: `PRINT_MILESTONES` now `(10, 25, 100, 500, 1000, 2500, 5000)`, `ARCHIVE_MILESTONES` now `(5, 10, 50, 250, 1000)`, `COST_MILESTONES` now `(25, 50, 100, 500, 1000)`. The existing priority order (anniversary → prints → archives → cost → version-update) and 14-day cross-family cooldown are unchanged, so a user still sees at most one toast per fortnight. The "fire highest unseen milestone" logic in `_check_prints` / `_check_archives` / `_check_cost` is unchanged — a user already at 200 prints still gets `prints-100` first (they crossed it earlier in the timeline). The existing toast copy uses `{count}` / `{total}` interpolation in all 11 locales — no new i18n keys needed; "You've completed 10 prints with Bambuddy" reads as fluently as the 100 variant. **Tests.** `test_failed_prints_dont_count` and `test_fires_when_cost_sum_crosses_100` rebalanced (5 completed prints instead of 50; 5 prints × 21 cost-each instead of 30 × 3.5) so they still test "below the lowest threshold" semantics with the new lower bars. New `test_fires_at_lowest_threshold` pins `prints-10` as the new minimum trigger. `pytest -n 30 backend/tests/unit/test_sponsor_prompt_service.py backend/tests/integration/test_sponsor_prompt_api.py` green (25/25). `ruff check` clean. **Scope.** No DB migration. No new permission. No frontend change. The change is opt-in by virtue of the existing toast cooldown — installs that already saw a recent toast see no behaviour change; installs that never crossed the old 100-print bar become eligible the first time they pass 10 prints (subject to the 14-day cooldown after any other family fires first).

## [0.2.4.7] - 2026-06-14
### Added
- **Bambu Lab A2L support (#1684)** — Internal model code `N9`, serial prefix `26A19` (5 chars, same shape as H2C's late `31B8B`). Capabilities resolved from BambuStudio's `resources/profiles/BBL/machine/Bambu Lab A2L.json` cross-checked against Bambu's official A2L specs page: linear rail, single FDM extruder + integrated cutter/plotter head (the BambuStudio `use_double_extruder_default_texture: true` flag covers the dual TOOL HEADS, not dual filament extrusion — A2L must NOT route AMS to the deputy slot or firmware rejects with 07FF_8012). Specs page also confirms NO Ethernet (Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g/n only), `Low-Rate-Kamera` on the chamber-image protocol (port 6000, NOT RTSP:322), no heated chamber. **Registry updates**: `PRINTER_MODEL_MAP` + `PRINTER_MODEL_ID_MAP` + `LINEAR_RAIL_MODELS` in `utils/printer_models.py`; `MODEL_TO_API_KEY` + `API_KEY_TO_DEV_MODEL` + `API_KEY_TO_WIKI_PATH` in `firmware_check.py` (wiki path follows the established `/en/a2l/manual/a2l-firmware-release-history` pattern; the existing 404 handling in `_fetch_all_versions_from_wiki` makes this safe to ship before Bambu publishes the page); `VIRTUAL_PRINTER_MODELS` + `MODEL_SERIAL_PREFIXES` in `virtual_printer/manager.py` (prefix `26A19A` with the same revision-letter padding as X2D's `20P90A`); `MODEL_PRODUCT_NAMES` in `virtual_printer/mqtt_server.py`; `mapModelCode` + Add-Printer / Edit-Printer model dropdowns in `PrintersPage.tsx` (new "A2 Series" optgroup); `mapModelCode` in `SpoolBuddyAmsPage.tsx`. **Camera and dual-nozzle code paths need no edits**: `supports_rtsp()` correctly falls through to chamber-image for A2L because `N9` is neither in the internal-code RTSP set nor does the display name match the X1/X2/H2/P2 prefix tuple; `is_dual_nozzle_model()` correctly returns False because A2L is not in `DUAL_NOZZLE_MODELS`. The cutter/plotter capability surfaces in MQTT push fields Bambuddy doesn't yet model; ignored for v1, will surface as a follow-up only if a real-world A2L bundle reveals a confusing UI state. **Tests**: 12 new cases in `test_printer_models.py::TestA2LModel` pinning every dimension — rod type, model-id round-trip, both ethernet directions, both camera-port directions, the explicit non-dual-nozzle guard (regression guard for the BambuStudio profile flag misread), set membership in `LINEAR_RAIL_MODELS` and exclusion from `CARBON_ROD_MODELS` / `STEEL_ROD_MODELS`.
- **One-shot `device.*` identification probe in MQTT push parser (#1684 enabler)** — Adding support for a new Bambu printer model needs the internal model code the firmware sends in MQTT `device.dev_model_name` (e.g. A1 is `N2S`, H2C is `O1C`, X2D is `N6`). The field arrives on every push but Bambuddy never logged it, so even a debug-enabled support bundle from a new-model user (A2L on #1684 was the case that surfaced this) gave us no way to identify the model — `get_version` was also missing because the printer disconnected right after the request topic subscription, which is a separate firmware quirk. **Fix:** at the top of the existing `device.*` parsing block in `bambu_mqtt.py`, emit one INFO log per client session dumping `dev_model_name` / `dev_product_name` / `dev_id` / `project_name` if any are present; otherwise fall back to `device.keys()` so a future Bambu rename (e.g. `model_name` without the `dev_` prefix) still surfaces. INFO level so the line lands in every support bundle, not just debug-enabled ones; one-shot via a `_device_id_logged` flag matching the existing `_nozzle_fields_logged` pattern at line 2095 — no spam at every push_status. 3 unit tests in `TestDeviceIdentificationProbe` pin the one-shot behaviour, the known-id-field path, and the keys-fallback path. Full `test_bambu_mqtt.py` suite 281 / 281 green; ruff clean. Once this ships, a new-model issue self-resolves from the first bundle — no second round of "please enable debug and reupload" required.
- **Re-print / Schedule modal: cross-extruder AMS slot picks on dual-nozzle (#1722, reported by @privatsturm)** — On a dual-nozzle setup (e.g. H2D with AMS A+C wired to the left extruder and AMS B wired to the right), the per-filament slot dropdown in the Re-print and Schedule modals used to hide every slot whose extruder didn't match the filament's slicer-assigned nozzle. A filament the slicer had assigned to the left extruder would only let the user pick from A or C; a right-assigned filament could only pick from B. Users who'd intentionally loaded the required filament into the "other" AMS — for example, AMS B (right side) carrying a colour the slicer had planned to print on the left — couldn't select it, even though the printer can physically run that AMS through its wired extruder. Three slice-output diffs (BambuStudio Desktop, OrcaSlicer Desktop, Bambuddy sidecar) all produced identical filament_map values for the same source 3MF, so the slicer wasn't the source of the asymmetry — Bambuddy's UI filter was. **Behaviour:** every loaded slot is now offered for every filament row in the Re-print and Schedule modals' specific-printer flow, regardless of which extruder it's wired to. The L/R badge on the filament row stays as a visual hint to what the slicer planned; the dropdown now trusts the user to pick based on their physical setup. Single-nozzle printers and FTS-equipped setups are unchanged — both short-circuited the filter already and continue to. Printer firmware accepts or rejects the resulting `ams_mapping` at start-print, so a physically-impossible pick fails loudly rather than silently. **Implementation:** `FilamentMapping.tsx:248-254` carried a guard `f.extruderId === item.nozzle_id` on the slot dropdown's `loadedFilaments` filter; the guard is now removed. The single-nozzle and FTS short-circuits stay. **Tests:** `'still applies the per-nozzle filter when FTS is null'` flipped to `'offers cross-extruder slots in the dropdown without FTS (#1722)'` — same scenario (no FTS, AMS 0 on right, filament asking for left), but now asserts both slots ARE listed. The FTS-installed case (#1162) and the rest of the FilamentMapping suite stay green. Backend untouched; no schema, no i18n. 5/5 FilamentMapping vitests green; 1043/1043 full component sweep green; frontend build clean.
- **Support bundle now includes redacted cached push_status per connected printer** — The existing support bundle (`GET /support/bundle`) shipped `support-info.json` + `bambuddy.log` — useful for triage, but missing the one thing that consistently blocks per-model work: the raw shape of the printer's MQTT push_status payload. Bambu firmware ships per-model config in a different shape for every family — AMS Backup detection was deferred in `85fbd7fc` because the H2D's bit-26 of `print.cfg` doesn't translate to the X1C / P1S / P2S layout and we had no ground-truth samples to map them; the same gap surfaces every time a `vt_tray` / `vir_slot` / `mapping` shape varies across firmware (the P2S `tray_now` fix, the H2D `vir_slot` parsing, the round-5 `vt_tray` overlay fix from #1622 last week all needed wire samples to land). **What's new:** the bundle now contains a `push-status/printer-{i}.json` file per connected printer, indexed against `support-info.json["printers"]`. Each file carries `{model, firmware_version, captured_at, raw_data}` where `raw_data` is the live cached push_status from `BambuMQTTClient.state.raw_data`. Disconnected printers (no MQTT state, or `raw_data` empty) are skipped — there's nothing to capture and an empty file just adds noise. **Redaction (two-pass):** a structural pass via the new `_redact_raw_push_status` helper drops user-private top-level keys anywhere in the tree (`subtask_name`, `gcode_file`, `gcode_file_prepare_percent`, `subtask_id`, `task_id`, `project_id`, `design_id`, `profile_id`, `model_id`, `gcode_state`) — Bambu's per-print filename/cloud-ID surface — and rewrites every `net.info[*].ip` entry to `"0.0.0.0"`, mirroring the LAN-topology leak fixed for the virtual-printer bridge in #1429. **What's deliberately preserved:** `print.cfg`, `print.option`, `ams.*`, `vt_tray`, `vir_slot`, `mapping`, `ams_extruder_map`, hardware fields (`nozzle_diameter`, temperatures, layer counters). These are the fields per-model work depends on. The structural pass then runs through `sanitize_log_content` with the same DB-derived `sensitive_strings` map the log path uses (printer names, serials, IPs, access codes, usernames, Bambu Cloud email) — belt-and-suspenders against any user-named string that leaked into a tray UUID or a sub-brand field. The redactor returns a NEW dict and never mutates the live `state.raw_data` (the dispatcher reads it on every tick; mutation would race the next push). **Why always-on instead of opt-in:** the bundle endpoint is already gated on "debug logging must be enabled" — generating the bundle is an explicit user act, the file downloads to the user's machine before they choose to send it, and forcing a second toggle adds friction without changing the threat model. Once a handful of bundles arrive from new-model users we'll have what we need to unblock AMS Backup awareness in the print-queue deficit check, plus future per-model shape variance. **Tests:** 5 new unit cases in `test_support_helpers.py::TestRedactRawPushStatus` pin the contract — drops the 9 user-private keys, rewrites `net.info[*].ip` while preserving `mask` siblings + sibling `net` keys, preserves `print.cfg` / `ams` / `vt_tray` / `vir_slot` / `mapping` / `ams_extruder_map`, does not mutate input, handles non-dict input gracefully (returns `{}` for None / list / str). Full support test surface 79/79 green (`test_support_helpers.py` + `test_support_api.py`); full backend suite 5937/5937 green with `-n 30`; ruff clean across the backend; frontend untouched but rebuild + i18n parity confirmed clean per `feedback_run_all_ci_checks`. No migration, no new i18n keys, no schema changes, no frontend changes.
- **Windows installer build pipeline scaffolded** — Lays down the infrastructure for producing a self-contained Bambuddy Windows installer `.exe` that doesn't require Python, Node, or any other runtime on the target machine. The installer ships an embedded Python 3.13 distribution (matching the Dockerfile's `python:3.13-slim-trixie`), the pre-built React bundle, NSSM (service supervisor), and ffmpeg — everything Bambuddy needs to run end-to-end on a stock Windows 10/11 box. **Architecture:** install target `C:\Program Files\Bambuddy\`, data target `C:\ProgramData\Bambuddy\data\` (preserved on uninstall so reinstalls keep the database + archives), service registered via NSSM running as `LocalSystem` with autostart on boot (LocalSystem is required because the Virtual Printer feature needs to bind 322 / 990 / 8883, all privileged ports on Windows). Browser is the UI — Start Menu shortcut opens `http://localhost:8000`, no Tauri / Electron launcher in v1, which matches how every other Bambuddy platform already works. **Why this shape over a PowerShell `install.ps1`:** the script approach was tried first and abandoned. Each failure across the Windows host fleet is environmental drift (Python version mismatches, execution-policy variants, antivirus heuristics, missing MSVC runtimes, OneDrive-redirected `%APPDATA%`, ARM64 vs x64, PowerShell 5.1 vs 7.x semantics) — a script can't insulate against host state, and every fix you add for one machine breaks two others. The self-contained-bundle approach takes that whole class of failure off the table. **Files:** `installers/windows/build.py` stages everything under `installers/windows/build/staging/`, `installers/windows/bambuddy.iss` is the Inno Setup 6 script, `installers/windows/service/install-service.bat` + `uninstall-service.bat` wrap NSSM. `build.py` hard-fails on non-Windows hosts; cross-build under Wine is an unsupported escape hatch behind `--allow-non-windows`. **CI:** `.github/workflows/windows-installer.yml` runs on tag push (`v*`) and manual dispatch, uses `windows-latest`, downloads Inno Setup via Chocolatey, runs `build.py` + ISCC, uploads the `.exe` as both a workflow artifact and a release asset. **Scope clarification:** this commit lands the build infrastructure, not a verified-working installer. The first real Windows-box smoke test happens after merge by triggering the workflow manually and installing the artifact on a target box; known unknowns are pip-installing `opencv-python-headless` / `curl_cffi` / `asyncpg` / `cryptography` / `bcrypt` against embedded Python (the `_pth` file edits in `build.py` cover the common gotchas but real-runtime imports are where surprises surface), ffmpeg path lookup from a LocalSystem service, and NSSM `AppEnvironmentExtra` line-continuation in cmd.exe. **Signing:** v1 ships unsigned — Windows SmartScreen will warn "Windows protected your PC" on first run, click-through works. SignPath OSS application submitted 2026-06-10 to wire free EV signing into CI once approved (typical 1–3 week approval window). **What's explicitly NOT in v1:** Spoolman bundling (Bambuddy's internal-inventory mode is the v1 default on Windows; users who want Spoolman install it separately), in-place upgrade (uninstall + install cycle works, but in-place upgrade-on-top needs end-to-end verification before we promise it), port-conflict pre-check (deferred to v1.1 — port collisions surface at first service start and the user reads the NSSM stderr log under `C:\ProgramData\Bambuddy\logs\service-stderr.log`). See `installers/windows/README.md` for the full build pipeline.
- **VP wire-payload dump escape hatch for shape-of-payload triage (#1622 investigation)** — When a virtual printer in non-proxy mode is misbehaving for the slicer-facing surface (AMS slot fields rendering empty, filament dropdown unselectable, K-profile not visible), the existing logs prove the bridge is bound and pushing at 1Hz but don't show what's actually in the wire payload. Without that, "cache is missing fields" is indistinguishable from "the slicer-facing copy is stripping them." Set `BAMBUDDY_VP_DUMP_WIRE=1` and Bambuddy writes the bridge's cached push_status (`/vp_wire/_in.json`) and the periodic 1Hz copy that gets sent to the slicer (`/vp_wire/_out.json`) to disk, overwritten on each tick. Diffing the two answers the bisect question; diffing a misbehaving VP's `_out.json` against a known-good VP's `_out.json` (e.g. P1S vs H2D in the #1622 case) answers the model-shape question. Off by default, no overhead when disabled (single env-var read per tick); env var re-read on every call so toggling without restart works; failures swallowed at debug so a broken dump can never break the 1Hz loop. Implementation lives in `backend/app/services/virtual_printer/_debug.py` with call sites in `mqtt_server.py::_send_status_report` (cached branch only — synthetic fallback is uninteresting for this triage) and `mqtt_bridge.py::_on_printer_raw` (immediately after the merge that produces `_latest_print_state`). 21 unit tests in `test_vp_wire_dump.py` pin: disabled-by-default, atomic tmp+rename writes (no half-written .json visible to a reader), sanitized vp_name (path-separator stripped, empty name falls back to `vp`, .. inside a single filename component is harmless because slashes are collapsed before path construction), per-call env check, dict + bytes + str payload acceptance, swallow-on-OSError. Not gated on debug-logging because the bridge's verbose path is already noisy; this dump is small (one file per direction per VP) and only present when the operator opts in. Diagnostic-only — does not change the bridge data path.
- **VP slicer↔printer command-flow trace (#1622 round 2)** — The snapshot dump above answers "is the cached push shape correct?", but the round-1 captures from #1622 ruled that out: P1S AMS payload reaches the slicer byte-identical to what the printer sent, sticky-key preservation works, the visible slot data is intact. The remaining symptom (picking a generic filament in archive mode "unloads" the slot) lives on the command path, not in the periodic push — and the snapshot dump doesn't capture command traffic. Same env flag (`BAMBUDDY_VP_DUMP_WIRE=1`) now also appends every slicer-originated publish on `device//request` AND every printer-originated response the bridge fans out to the slicer (extrusion_cali_get, ams_filament_setting acks, xcam, system, etc.) to `/vp_wire/_cmd.jsonl`, one JSON line per event with UTC iso timestamp, direction (`slicer_to_bridge` / `printer_to_slicer`), MQTT topic, a `.` grep handle, and the parsed payload. Excludes the cached-as-base 1Hz push (already covered by the snapshot dump) and `pushall`/`get_version` (handled locally, never forwarded). Printer-side captures happen AFTER serial rewrite so the dump matches what the slicer actually saw on the wire. New `append_event` helper in `_debug.py` mirrors the same swallow-on-OSError + sanitized-vp_name + per-call env-check posture as `dump_wire`; bytes payloads are utf-8 decoded then json-parsed with the same `\x00`-tolerance fix from #927 so OrcaSlicer's C-string-null publishes parse cleanly; un-parseable bytes fall back to `{"raw": "..."}` so every line stays valid JSON. Eight additional unit tests in `test_vp_wire_dump.py` pin: disabled-by-default, bytes parsing, trailing-null tolerance, unparseable-fallback, vp_name sanitization, iso timestamp shape, append-multiple-lines, swallow-on-OSError. Diagnostic-only — does not change the publish or fan-out data path.
- **VP bridge-synthesised reply trace (#1622 round 3)** — The round-2 cmd.jsonl from shaddowlink's P1S vs H2D capture proves the actual failure mode: on P1S in archive mode the slicer issues `extrusion_cali_set` (push K/n directly) and the printer responds `fail`, on H2D and on the P1S second round the slicer takes the `extrusion_cali_sel` flow (select by `filament_id` / `cali_idx`) and the printer responds `success`. Both flows traverse the bridge cleanly — `ams_filament_setting` round-trips with `result=success` and the cached push_status carries `tray_info_idx=GFA11`, `tray_type=PLA-AERO`, K/n, and `cali_idx=-1` intact. So the bridge is innocent on every layer the dump can see, and the open question becomes: what makes the slicer pick `_set` vs `_sel`? Likely candidates are the `info.get_version` answer Bambuddy synthesises (slicer fingerprints on `sw_ver` / `hw_ver` / `module` to decide its command flow) or the first cached `pushall` response the slicer reads to bootstrap its UI. Round 2 captured neither — the JSONL had `slicer_to_bridge` and `printer_to_slicer` directions but no `bridge_to_slicer` direction for the bridge's own synthesised replies. Same env flag (`BAMBUDDY_VP_DUMP_WIRE=1`) now also appends every bridge-synthesised reply (info.get_version answer, project_file ack, on-demand pushall response) to `/vp_wire/_cmd.jsonl` under direction `bridge_to_slicer`. Capture lives in `mqtt_server.py::_publish_to_report` — the single chokepoint every synthesised reply already passes through — gated on a new `log_event: bool = True` parameter; the 1Hz periodic-push path threads `log_event=False` so the JSONL isn't flooded with ~60 lines/min per VP (snapshot dump already covers cache shape). The on-demand pushall response from `_send_status_report` IS logged because that's the bootstrap-fingerprint reply the slicer reads on first connect. Two additional unit tests in `test_vp_mqtt_bridge.py::TestWireFormat` pin the event-on-default and skip-when-`log_event=False` posture; `test_vp_wire_dump.py` already covers the underlying `append_event` shape and the new direction is documented in `_debug.py`'s docstring. Diagnostic-only — does not change the publish data path; the new param defaults preserve every existing call site's behaviour.
- **Batch grouping for queued items** — multi-plate prints from one source 3MF now auto-group into a single collapsible row with aggregate stats, and a new "Group as batch…" action turns any 2+ selected items into a manual batch. Per-batch collapse state persists across reloads. Manual batches can be disbanded via the Ungroup action on the batch parent.
- **History batch grouping** — siblings of the same batch collapse into one history row with status-rollup chips (e.g. 3 ✓ / 1 ✗) and the latest activity timestamp.
- **History thumbnail hover preview** — hover any small history thumbnail and a 192×192 preview pops out next to it.
### Changed
- **Queue page restructured around three tabs** — Queue, History, and Timeline now live as separate tabs at the top. History no longer competes with the active queue for screen space.
- **Active queue layout toggle** — pick between a flat list (current default) and a per-printer view where each printer becomes a section card with aggregate item count, total time, and total filament weight in its header.
- **Multi-drag reorder** — selecting N items and dragging any one of them moves the whole selection as a contiguous block; the drag ghost shows a "+N" badge.
- **History rows redesigned** — each row now carries a filament color swatch + weight + type, the user who started the print, and the failure reason inline on failed/skipped rows. Rows lay out in a responsive 1/2/3 column grid so a long history uses available horizontal space.
- **Timeline tab rebuilt as a Gantt swimlane** — one horizontal row per printer (plus per target_model and unassigned), jobs rendered as bars positioned by start time and sized by duration. Live NOW marker, 24-hour rolling window with 12-hour step controls. Only committed schedules are shown — staged items, waiting items, and ASAP jobs on idle printers are hidden so the timeline reads as a real forecast.
### Fixed
- **Virtual Printer queue mode: multi-plate "Send All" now enqueues one queue item per plate** — BambuStudio / OrcaSlicer's "Send All" packs every plate of the project into a SINGLE 3MF and uploads it with one FTP STOR — `slice_info.config` inside the file carries N `` blocks (one per plate), each with its own ` ` and its own `Metadata/plate_N.gcode` payload. Previously the VP queue path only ever extracted the FIRST plate's index via `_extract_plate_id` and created exactly ONE PrintQueueItem with that single `plate_id`; plates 2..N silently dropped on the floor. Indistinguishable from the user's perspective from "Send" of a single plate — except they expected 3 items in the queue and got 1, with no log line to explain why. **Confirmed against the wire** on the live H2D-1 Proxy VP: `Cube.gcode.3mf` carrying three `` blocks (indices 1, 2, 3) + three per-plate gcode payloads in the same zip, identical filename whether "Send" or "Send All" was clicked — the only signal of intent is the count of `` blocks inside the file. **Fix:** replaced `_extract_plate_id` (returning `int | None`) with `_extract_plate_ids` (returning `list[int]`). The list contains every `` block's `index` metadata, in order; falls back to `[1]` for files missing `slice_info.config` or with no parseable plates so the single-plate path is preserved. `_add_to_print_queue` now loops over the list — each iteration calls `extract_filament_requirements(file_path, plate_id)` per-plate (the plate-aware path was already there from the #1697 work) and creates a PrintQueueItem with that plate's filament types / overrides, plate-specific position = `MAX(position) + iteration`. Single-plate "Send" hits the loop once → exactly today's behaviour (one queue item, plate_id from the slicer, same archive). Multi-plate "Send All" of a 3-plate file → 3 queue items, plate_id 1/2/3, consecutive positions, all pointing at the same backing archive (one upload = one archive). **What stays the same:** the single archive row per upload (the archive backs the queue items via `archive_id`); the `auto_dispatch=False` / `manual_start=true` posture inherited from the VP config (so multi-plate items still require manual start); the `queue_force_color_match` per-VP toggle (now applies per-plate). **What this also fixed downstream:** the `required_filament_types` / `filament_overrides` JSON on each queue item now reflects THAT plate's filaments, not the file's first plate — so the scheduler's per-printer "Any X" matching dispatches each plate onto a printer with the right colours loaded for THAT plate, not for plate 1's filament set. **Tests:** 1 new regression case in `test_virtual_printer.py::TestVirtualPrinterInstance::test_add_to_print_queue_multi_plate_send_all_enqueues_one_per_plate` — builds a 3-plate 3MF (writes the per-plate `` blocks into `slice_info.config` and the per-plate gcode payloads), runs `_add_to_print_queue`, asserts 3 PrintQueueItems with `plate_id == [1, 2, 3]`, `position == [1, 2, 3]`, shared `archive_id`, all `manual_start=True`. 126 existing single-plate VP tests stay green (loop runs once when input has one plate). Full backend suite 5962/5962 green; ruff clean; frontend untouched. **Live-verified** on the H2D-1 Proxy VP — a Send All of the 3-plate Cube project now produces 3 queue items + 1 archive instead of 1 queue item + 1 archive.
- **Archive delete now removes related queue items instead of leaving "cancelled" rows behind** — Previously the soft-delete path (the default — what the trash-can button does) called `_cancel_pending_queue_items`, which only flipped queue rows with `status='pending'` to `status='cancelled'` while leaving every other status alone AND leaving every row in the DB. The Send All multi-plate work above made this much more visible: deleting an archive backed by N queue items now had to clean up N rows, and what users saw instead was N "cancelled" rows lingering in the queue history. **Fix (backend):** replaced `_cancel_pending_queue_items` with `_delete_related_queue_items(db, archive_id) -> int` that DELETEs every queue row where `archive_id = X` regardless of status. Behavior now matches what the hard-delete path already did via the `ON DELETE CASCADE` FK on `print_queue.archive_id` — both paths produce the same end state. Print history lives in `PrintLogEntry` (FK `ON DELETE SET NULL`) and is untouched, so stats / Quick Stats / accuracy bands are preserved across both delete paths. **New guard:** the route at `archives.py::delete_archive` now 409s when any related queue item is currently in `status='printing'` — both soft and hard delete are gated by the same precondition, because deleting the archive while a print is live would strip the dispatcher's metadata trail (filament / plate / ams_mapping) out from under the running print. The 409 surfaces a clear "Stop the print first, then retry" message. **Pre-flight count for the UI:** new endpoint `GET /archives/{id}/delete-impact` returns `{related_queue_items: N, currently_printing: M}` — cheap, single endpoint, not folded into the archive list response so the much larger list endpoint isn't forced to run the same query per row. Frontend ArchivesPage delete-confirm modal queries this when the modal opens (`useQuery({queryKey: ['archive', id, 'delete-impact'], enabled: showDeleteConfirm})`) and renders: an amber warning "**N queue item(s) linked to this archive will also be removed.**" when total > 0 AND printing = 0, OR a red warning "**Cannot delete — M queue item(s) are currently printing. Stop the print first, then retry.**" when printing > 0 (with the confirm button disabled in that case so the user can't bonk the 409 on submit). **ConfirmModal extension:** added optional `confirmDisabled?: boolean` prop. Existing `isLoading` was the only disable knob; this adds an external-precondition path that disables the confirm without the loading spinner. **Tests:** rewrote `test_print_queue_api.py::test_soft_delete_archive_cancels_pending_queue_items` → `test_soft_delete_archive_deletes_all_related_queue_items` to pin the new contract (both pending AND completed rows are gone post-soft-delete). 2 new integration cases in `test_archives_api.py`: `test_delete_archive_blocked_when_related_queue_item_printing` (both soft and hard paths return 409 with "printing" in detail message) + `test_archive_delete_impact_reports_counts` (3 mixed-status related rows + 1 unrelated row → endpoint reports `related_queue_items=3, currently_printing=1`, unrelated row doesn't bleed in). **i18n:** 2 new keys (`archives.modal.deleteQueueItemsWarning`, `archives.modal.deleteBlockedByPrinting`) translated across all 11 locales per `feedback_translate_dont_fallback` — no English fallbacks. **Verification:** full backend suite 5964/5964 green with `-n 30`; ruff clean; ESLint clean; `npm run build` clean; vitest 2118/2118 green; i18n parity 5109 × 11 locales green. No DB migration — the CASCADE FK was already in place; only the helper's semantics changed.
- **Print Log table: multi-color filament rows render one swatch per color instead of a single barely-visible gray dot (#1731 part 1, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — The per-archive Print Log table cell at `frontend/src/pages/ArchivesPage.tsx:3882` rendered the `filament_color` column as ONE swatch with `style={{ backgroundColor: entry.filament_color.startsWith('#') ? entry.filament_color : undefined }}`. For multi-color prints, the backend writes `filament_color` as a comma-joined string (e.g. `"#FFFFFF,#000000,#FF0000"` — three filaments used in the print), which trivially passes the `.startsWith('#')` check but is not a valid CSS color. The browser silently dropped the `backgroundColor` declaration, leaving the swatch as only its black/20% border on the app's dark theme — visually a tiny grey dot, near-invisible against the row background, which the reporter's screenshots showed as "PLA" text in the cell with no apparent swatch at all. The DB column was correct (the reporter confirmed both colors were recorded for the old example); the render dropped them. The Archive Card view at `:1072-1083` and `:2114-2125` already split on comma and rendered one swatch per color — only the Print Log table cell had been missed when multi-color support was added across the rest of the page. **Fix:** the Print Log table cell now mirrors the card-view pattern — wraps the swatches in a `flex` container, splits `entry.filament_color` on `,`, trims each value, and renders one `w-3 h-3 rounded-full` per color with `backgroundColor: trimmed.startsWith('#') ? trimmed : undefined` and a `title={trimmed}` for hover-tooltip parity. Single-color prints render exactly one swatch (the trivial case — no behaviour change). Empty / non-hex slot values gracefully fall through to no `backgroundColor` rather than poisoning the CSS for adjacent slots. The filament-type text (`{entry.filament_type || '—'}`) keeps its existing position to the right of the swatches. **What this does NOT fix:** the reporter also flagged that new multi-color prints don't appear in the filament usage history. That's a separate code path (`backend/app/services/usage_tracker.py::_track_from_3mf` and the slot-to-tray mapping chain at `usage_tracker.py:899-901`), where the diagnostic needs the archive's captured `ams_mapping`, the `mapping` field from MQTT push_status at print start, and the `[UsageTracker] PRINT START` / `PRINT COMPLETE` log lines — none of which are in the reporter's first bundle. Tracking under #1731 part 2, blocked on a support bundle from the affected install. **Tests:** existing `ArchivesPage.test.tsx` (23 cases) green; ESLint clean; `npm run build` clean; i18n parity 5107 leaves × 11 locales green (no new keys). Frontend-only change.
- **Finish-photo force-on removed; user's explicit timelapse=off in the slicer send dialog is now respected (#1721, reported by @agrisci)** — On H2D 01.x firmware, `capture_finish_photo` (default-on global setting) was forcing every print's `timelapse` MQTT field to `enable` regardless of whether the user had unchecked the Timelapse box in OrcaSlicer's send dialog. That bit flips the printer's runtime `timelapse_record_flag`, which un-gates the slicer-baked `M1002 judge_flag timelapse_record_flag` / `M622 J1` / `G1 X-48.2 F3000` / `M971 S11 C11 O0` wipe blocks emitted by **Smooth**-mode timelapse profiles — so the toolhead parked off the part and snapped a frame every single layer, on prints the user explicitly opted out of recording. The reporter's gcode export confirmed the macro block was baked in (28 occurrences across the file) and the printer's MQTT log showed `Sending print command: {"print": { … "timelapse": true, … }}` even though the slicer-side checkbox was unchecked. Live-stop confirmed: turning the global `capture_finish_photo` setting off in Bambuddy made the per-layer parking stop immediately. **Root cause:** the #1397 "finish photo from timelapse" feature used "force the printer into timelapse-recording mode at dispatch" as the side-channel to get a well-framed end-of-print shot (toolhead parked, before bed drop, extracted from the recorded video's last frame). That mechanism conflated two semantically different things — recording a timelapse video vs. snapping a finish photo — and the per-layer side effects of the recording mode were decided at slice time by the user's `timelapse_type` profile setting, which Bambuddy has no visibility into post-slice. Traditional-mode gcode has no per-layer wipe block (no parking, no defects) — so the bug was invisible to anyone whose slicer profile defaults to Traditional. Smooth-mode gcode (the reporter's case) bakes the wipe block and gates it on `timelapse_record_flag`, so flipping the runtime flag fired the macro every layer. **Fix:** replaced the force-on mechanism entirely with a clean MQTT-state-driven trigger. `bambu_mqtt.py::_handle_push_status` now fires a new `on_finish_photo_moment` callback when `stg_cur` transitions INTO **22** ("Filament unloading") while `_was_running == True` AND the end-of-print gate matches (`progress >= 99` OR `layer_num >= total_layers` OR `remaining_time <= 0`) — that's the same framing window #1397 was after (toolhead parked, bed not yet dropped, AMS pulling filament back) but reached via a clean state signal instead of by exploiting the per-layer macros. The end-of-print gate is what disambiguates from mid-print filament swaps in multi-color prints, which ALSO transit through stage 22 (M620 unload → 22, M621 load → 24) but always at progress < 99 / layer < total / remaining > 0. A FINISH-state fallback in the same handler fires the same callback at the existing FINISH-state transition if stage 22 never arrived — covers cancel-mid-print (state goes RUNNING → IDLE / FAILED without 22), external-spool-only prints where some firmwares skip the unload phase, HMS halts before unload, and any firmware variant we don't see stage 22 on. Net behavior: every print that gets a finish photo today still gets one; the lucky majority get the better-framed pre-bed-drop shot too. `main.py::on_finish_photo_moment` is a new top-level handler that pre-captures one camera frame at the trigger edge — external camera (snapshot URL → MJPEG fallback), buffered live RTSP frame from `_active_streams` / `_active_chamber_streams`, or a fresh RTSP grab via `capture_camera_frame_bytes` — and caches the JPEG bytes in a module-level `_stage22_finish_frames: dict[int, bytes]` keyed by printer_id. `_background_finish_photo` (inside `on_print_complete`) consumes the cached bytes via `_stage22_finish_frames.pop(printer_id, None)` before falling through to its existing live-grab chain, so the saved photo has the better framing without the existing complex archive-resolution / fallback / notification wiring needing to move. When a timelapse IS actively recording (user explicitly opted in this time), the pre-capture is skipped — `_capture_finish_photo_from_timelapse` still extracts the last frame from the recorded video, which is still the highest-quality option and now has no force-on side effects because the user actually wanted the video. **What was removed:** `resolve_effective_timelapse` in `background_dispatch.py` (the shared force-on resolver), `BackgroundDispatchService._resolve_effective_timelapse` wrapper, both call sites in `background_dispatch.py` (`_run_reprint_archive` + library-file print path), the `resolve_effective_timelapse` call in `print_scheduler.py::_dispatch_item`, the `archive.bambuddy_forced_timelapse` write in the resolver, the `if archive.bambuddy_forced_timelapse: await _cleanup_forced_timelapse(...)` branch in `_background_finish_photo`, and the entire `_cleanup_forced_timelapse` function (~75 lines including the FTP-DELE walk across `/timelapse` / `/timelapse/video` / `/record` / `/recording`). All call sites now read `bool(item.timelapse)` / `bool(job.options.get("timelapse", False))` directly — the literal user choice flows straight through to `start_print(timelapse=…)`. The `archive.bambuddy_forced_timelapse` DB column stays defined (default `False`) for back-compat with existing rows that may have it set to `True` from before — no consumer reads it anymore, and dropping a column on the user-data table risks breaking restore-from-backup flows we don't need to break. **New callback wiring:** added `on_finish_photo_moment` parameter to `BambuMQTT.__init__`, new `_finish_photo_captured` one-shot flag (reset on each new print at the same site as `_completion_triggered`), new `PrinterManager._on_finish_photo_moment` field + `set_finish_photo_moment_callback` setter, new `on_finish_photo_moment` inner wrapper in `_setup_callbacks`, threaded through to the `BambuMQTTClient` constructor call. `main.py::on_print_start` clears any leftover `_stage22_finish_frames` entry from a prior print so a never-consumed cache (e.g. capture succeeded but on_print_complete bailed before reaching it) can't bleed into the new print's photo. **Tests removed:** `test_cleanup_forced_timelapse.py` (~290 lines, 7 test cases pinning the FTP-DELE walk and `bambuddy_forced_timelapse` flag handling), `test_scheduler_force_timelapse_wiring.py` (the source-pattern check that pinned `print_scheduler.py` imports `resolve_effective_timelapse`), `test_dispatch_force_timelapse.py` (5 test cases pinning the `_resolve_effective_timelapse` wrapper's interaction with `capture_finish_photo` + archive flag). The behaviour these tests verified is intentionally gone. **Tests updated:** `test_background_dispatch_watchdog.py` dropped two `patch.object(BackgroundDispatchService, "_resolve_effective_timelapse", ...)` blocks that stubbed the now-removed method; `test_background_dispatch.py::test_dispatch_options_pass_through_pattern` comment updated to explain why `timelapse` stays excluded from the bare-pattern needle check (the wrap in `bool(...)` is intentional to coerce non-bool option payloads, not a force-on remnant). **Verification:** ruff clean; full backend suite 5961/5961 green with `-n 30`; ESLint clean; `npm run build` clean; vitest 2118/2118 green; i18n parity 5107 leaves × 11 locales green (no new keys). No migration. **What this does NOT change:** users who explicitly enable the Timelapse checkbox in the slicer send dialog still get the timelapse video AND the timelapse-extracted finish photo (highest-quality framing, no per-layer parking because that was never the issue — it's the user's intentional choice). Users who explicitly disable the Timelapse checkbox now get no per-layer parking AND still get a finish photo (pre-captured at the stage-22 edge for the same pre-bed-drop framing).
- **Configure AMS Slot: filament profiles for other printer models now filtered out (#1623, reported by @shaddowlink)** — Three independent gaps in the same picker, each surfaced by a different round of reporter screenshots. **(1) Local "Custom" imported profiles** were unconditionally listed regardless of the slot's printer; a user with PETG / PLA profiles imported from OrcaSlicer / BambuStudio for A1 mini, H2D, and P1S saw all three lined up when configuring an AMS slot on any one of those printers. **(2) Cloud presets using the `@Bambu Lab ` suffix form** (user-renamed Bambu Cloud presets and most Orca Cloud profiles) slipped through the existing filter, which only matched the `@BBL ` form Bambu's system presets use. **(3) Cloud presets with the printer model in the BODY of the name** (the literal failure shape the reporter screenshotted on H2D: `"X1C eSUN PETG-Basic Filament"` with no `@` suffix at all) — the existing extractor returned null for these and the filter no-op'd. **Fix:** `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.tsx` now (a) queries the backend's Bambu printer-model registry (`/slicer/printer-models`, same fetch SliceModal uses), (b) for local presets — reverse-looks-up the slot's short model code to a long printer-preset fragment, pairs it with the slot's nozzle diameter to synthesise the full slicer preset name ("Bambu Lab P1S 0.4 nozzle"), and passes that into `presetCompatibility(...)` from `utils/slicerPrinterMatch.ts` against each local preset's parsed `compatible_printers` JSON; (c) for cloud / Orca Cloud presets — `extractPresetModel(name, registry)` is now multi-strategy: first the `@BBL ` form (existing), then the `@Bambu Lab ` form with case-insensitive reverse-lookup against the registry (so "A1 mini" vs "A1 Mini" capitalisation drift doesn't hide A1 Mini profiles, preserving the #1649 alias-aware match), then a body-text scan against every known model token (long-name fragments and short codes from the registry, long-first sort so "A1 Mini" / "X1 Carbon" / "H2D Pro" aren't eaten by their shorter siblings, word-boundary regex so "PA1" doesn't match "A1" and "X1Box" doesn't match "X1"). Presets where no strategy resolves still pass through — free-form names with no recognisable model token stay visible (can't filter what we can't classify). **Fail-open posture preserved:** `match` and `unknown` verdicts keep showing for local presets (back-compat for hand-edited imports without `compatible_printers`); the currently-configured preset (`slotInfo.savedPresetId`) bypasses the filter so the active selection always remains visible; built-in filaments stay unfiltered (generic fallback); when the registry hasn't loaded yet OR `printerModel` is empty, every filter no-ops. **No backend / schema / i18n changes.** Frontend ESLint clean; `npm run build` clean; vitest `ConfigureAmsSlotModal` 24/24 green.
- **Virtual Printer: empty AMS slots forwarded as phantom loaded filaments to BambuStudio Sync (#1726, reported with full code-level analysis by @needo37)** — On any VP bound to a target printer (Proxy mode, or Queue mode with a specific target), the slicer-facing AMS state was the printer's raw push_status — the empty-slot cleanup that `bambu_mqtt.py::_handle_ams_data` applies to Bambuddy's own internal state was NEVER run on the bridge cache. Concrete case: real printer has 3 filaments loaded (AMS-A slots 2/3/4), AMS-A slot 1 and all of AMS-B empty; Bambuddy's AMS card renders the empty slots correctly as Empty (control — internal state path is fine), but BambuStudio after Sync paints 7 populated/green-checked filament slots — the 3 real ones plus 4 phantoms whose color/material is stale RFID/calibration data from before those slots went empty. The diagnostic signature is the mismatch between the AMS card (correct) and the slicer view (wrong) for the same payload. Archive mode and Queue-by-model are NOT affected — no target printer → no bridge → the slicer gets the synthetic stub at `mqtt_server.py:927` with no real AMS data. **Root cause:** two code paths consume the same printer AMS payload. Internal (`bambu_mqtt.py::_handle_ams_data` lines 1802-1858) parses `tray_exist_bits`, promotes empty slots to `state=9`, and wipes the stale `tray_type`/`tray_color`/`tray_info_idx`/`tag_uid`/`tray_uuid`/`remain` fields. VP bridge (`mqtt_bridge.py::_on_printer_raw` lines 551-656) deep-merges AMS structurally via `_merge_ams_dict` and copies `tray_exist_bits` through as an opaque top-level scalar — but never applies the bit→clear-empty-slot logic. The cached state ships to the slicer untouched. **Fix:** factored the bit-clear logic out of `_handle_ams_data` into a shared module-level helper `bambu_mqtt.py::apply_tray_exist_bits(units, tray_exist_bits_str, *, power_on_flag, log_label)` and call it from both paths. The internal call site is replaced with a single helper invocation; the bridge calls it on the merged AMS dict after `_merge_ams_dict` runs, before the 1 Hz cached-as-base push picks the cache up. Shared shutdown guard preserved on both sides: all-zero bits + `power_on_flag=False` is the printer-off pattern (#765) and skips cleanup — a non-zero bits + power-off combo is valid idle-printer state (#1365 — X1C between prints) and still applies. AMS-HT units (`id >= 128`) skipped on both sides (separate addressing scheme). **Tests:** new `TestApplyTrayExistBitsHelper` class in `test_bambu_mqtt.py` (10 cases pinning the helper contract directly — missing/unparseable bits → no-op, shutdown guard, nonzero+power-off X1C case, int-9 state, AMS-HT skip, string id handling, multi-AMS global bit math, state-promote-even-without-stale-data). 3 new bridge regression tests in `test_vp_mqtt_bridge.py::TestPushStatusCache`: `test_tray_exist_bits_clears_empty_slots_in_slicer_cache` reproduces the #1726 wire shape (slot 0 carries stale `tray_type`/`tray_color`/`tray_info_idx`/`tag_uid`/`tray_uuid`/`remain` + `tray_exist_bits="e"` → slot 0 must clear, slots 1-3 preserved), `test_tray_exist_bits_shutdown_guard_preserves_cache` pins the printer-off path won't propagate phantom empties on every reconnect, `test_tray_exist_bits_skips_ams_ht_units` pins the HT addressing skip. Existing internal-state tests for the bit-clear logic (`test_tray_exist_bits_clears_empty_slots`, `test_tray_exist_bits_promotes_empty_slot_to_state_9`, `test_tray_exist_bits_does_not_change_state_on_loaded_slots`, …) continue to pass against the refactored internal path — same contract, same behavior, different implementation seam. One pre-existing bridge fixture (`test_partial_ams_unit_update_preserves_other_units`) had an inconsistent `tray_exist_bits="3"` for two AMS units (bit 0 set, bit 4 unset, but both unit 0 and unit 1 had slot 0 populated as loaded). The fix exposed the inconsistency — corrected to `"11"` (bits 0 + 4) to match what the real printer would send. Full backend suite 5955/5955 green; ruff clean; i18n parity 5107 leaves × 11 locales green (no new keys). Frontend untouched. **Verification on a live system (per @needo37's analysis):** set `BAMBUDDY_VP_DUMP_WIRE=1`, restart, Sync the slicer, inspect `/vp_wire/_out.json`. For any tray whose bit in `tray_exist_bits` is 0, `tray_type`/`tray_color` should now be empty.
- **Windows: `/api/local-backup/status` 500 on `ZoneInfoNotFoundError: 'No time zone found with key UTC'` (from a user's log on the Windows installer)** — Reported via a Windows traceback against the new local-backup status endpoint. The stdlib `zoneinfo` module reads the system IANA tz database on Linux/macOS, but Windows has none — and the embedded Python in our Windows installer doesn't carry the `tzdata` PyPI package either, so even `ZoneInfo("UTC")` raises `ZoneInfoNotFoundError`. `_local_zone()` in `services/local_backup.py` only caught that exception for the `TZ`-env branch; the empty-`TZ` fallback and the unrecognised-`TZ` fallback both unconditionally called `ZoneInfo("UTC")` and re-raised, bubbling out of the FastAPI handler as a 500. **Fix (two parts):** (1) `_local_zone()` is now resilient — return type widened from `ZoneInfo` to `tzinfo`, the `UTC` fallback is wrapped in its own try, and the last-resort fallback returns the stdlib `datetime.timezone.utc` (which needs no IANA DB and satisfies every `astimezone` / `str()` call site downstream — `str(timezone.utc) == "UTC"` matches the previous response shape). Restores function on existing Windows installs without re-bundling. (2) `requirements.txt` now pins `tzdata>=2024.1; sys_platform == "win32"` so the next Windows installer build ships the IANA DB and any non-UTC `TZ` value (e.g. `Europe/Berlin`) resolves correctly — the stdlib fallback can only ever give UTC. Linux/macOS unaffected: the platform marker keeps them on the system tz DB they already have. **Tests:** new `test_zoneinfo_completely_unavailable_falls_back_to_stdlib_utc` in `test_local_backup.py` monkeypatches `ZoneInfo` to always raise `ZoneInfoNotFoundError` and pins that `_local_zone()` returns `datetime.timezone.utc` rather than propagating. 31/31 local_backup tests green; ruff clean.
- **Print-modal "off" toggles for `flow_cali` and `nozzle_offset_cali` now actually suppress the calibration stage (live-tested on H2D 01.x)** — The Re-print / Schedule modal toggles for Flow Calibration and Nozzle Offset Calibration accepted the user's "off" choice and flowed it correctly through to the `project_file` MQTT publish — Bambuddy sent `extrude_cali_flag: 2` and `nozzle_offset_cali: 2` per our reading of "1 = run, 2 = skip" inherited from the #1478 / #1682 work. Live test on an H2D running firmware 01.x: with both toggles off in Bambuddy's modal, the printer's `stg` queue (the pre-print stage list firmware publishes via push_status) still included stage **8** ("Calibrating dynamic flow") and stage **39** ("Nozzle offset calibration") — and physically ran them at print start. The `2` value did NOT suppress the stage despite our earlier "skip and reuse stored PA" reading. **Root cause:** the encoding for the "off" wire value is `0`, not `2`. The `2` value appears to mean "skip the explicit calibration pass but still apply / verify the stored PA value via the calibration stage" — close to a no-op in terms of K-factor but the printer still queues the stage and runs the per-print physical sequence. `0` is what actually drops the stage from the `stg` queue. A real BambuStudio Send-dialog capture on the same firmware (proxy-mode VP echo) also showed `0` for both fields when calibrations are unchecked, contradicting the #1478 commit message which read `0` as "never sent by BambuStudio." **Fix:** `bambu_mqtt.py::start_print` — `extrude_cali_flag` is now `1 if flow_cali else 0` (was `2`), and `nozzle_offset_cali` is `1 if (nozzle_offset_cali and is_dual_nozzle) else 0` (was `2`). The dual-nozzle gate stays — single-nozzle prints continue to force-skip the nozzle-offset calibration their head doesn't support (#1682). `1` (run) is unchanged on both fields. **Verification:** live re-test on the same H2D with both toggles still off — `stg: [29, 13, 4, 14, 3]` (cooling, homing, filament change, nozzle cleaning, vibration comp). Stages 8 and 39 dropped out cleanly. **What's NOT fixed:** `vibration_cali` is a JSON `false` bool in both Bambuddy's and BambuStudio's wire format, and the H2D firmware queues stage **3** ("Vibration compensation") regardless of the bool value — this is firmware-side and not solvable at our dispatch layer with the current field. Captured as a follow-up to investigate whether a parallel `vibration_cali_flag` integer field exists. **Tests:** `test_bambu_mqtt.py` — `test_p2s_uses_boolean_format` flipped `extrude_cali_flag == 2` → `== 0`; `test_nozzle_offset_cali_default_is_skip`, `test_nozzle_offset_cali_ignored_on_single_nozzle`, `test_nozzle_offset_cali_false_on_dual_nozzle` flipped `== 2` → `== 0`; docstrings updated to reflect the #1721 finding. The `1 if user_wants` branch in both tests for the "on" case is unchanged. 281/281 bambu_mqtt tests green; full backend suite 5941/5941 green with `-n 30`; ruff clean; frontend untouched (rebuild + i18n parity confirmed clean per `feedback_run_all_ci_checks`).
- **Support-bundle log noise: VP bridge nudge + SD-card cleanup (#1721 adjacent, observed on reporter's A1)** — Two warnings polluting every A1 support bundle on a healthy print. Neither was the cause of #1721's timelapse complaint — both are adjacent noise. **(1) `request_status_update: not connected`** — `mqtt_bridge.py::_resolve_client` calls `_request_version` + `request_status_update` immediately after attaching a raw-message handler so the bridge cache populates without waiting for the next periodic pushall. The bind frequently races the real printer's MQTT TLS handshake — a slicer-side reconnect re-resolves the client before the underlying session has reconnected, especially on A1 firmware which reconnects more aggressively than X1/H2/P. `request_status_update` logs `[serial] request_status_update: not connected` at WARNING on the not-connected return path. The nudge is a best-effort optimisation; the fall-through (next periodic pushall) populates the cache anyway, so the WARNING fires on routine, expected, recoverable state. **Fix:** gate both nudges on `current.state.connected` at the bind site. When the client comes up, the next `_resolve_client` tick re-enters this branch on identity change OR the periodic pushall in `bambu_mqtt.py` fills the cache — same end state, no benign WARNING. The WARNING in `bambu_mqtt.py:3224` is unchanged: it's still a real signal for the other callers (`/printers/{id}/refresh-status` user API, bug-reporter helper) where "you asked for a refresh on a dead client" is genuinely worth logging. New `test_post_bind_nudge_skipped_when_target_not_connected` in `test_vp_mqtt_bridge.py::TestBridgeLifecycle` pins the contract. **(2) `SD card cleanup failed after 3 attempts ... (file may linger on SD card)`** — The post-finish helper in `main.py` deletes the uploaded file from the printer's SD card to prevent the ghost-print-on-power-cycle behaviour (#374, #1542). It tries up to three candidate paths (`derive_remote_filename(archive.filename)`, then `{subtask_name}.3mf`, then `{subtask_name}.gcode`), each up to 3 times with 2 s backoff, then logs WARNING if all fail. `delete_file_async` returned `bool` — `True` for success, `False` for ANYTHING else (FTP 550 file-not-found, network error, auth fail, transient FTP error). The A1 firmware (and most other Bambu firmwares post-print) cleans the SD-card upload itself before our cleanup runs, every candidate FTP-DELE returns 550, all three retries × three candidates × 2 s sleeps fire, then WARNING. That WARNING shouldn't exist on a healthy print where the printer self-cleaned. The same shape exists in `_cleanup_forced_timelapse` (#1397) walking the four timelapse dirs. **Fix:** `bambu_ftp.py` now exports a `DeleteResult` enum (`DELETED` / `NOT_FOUND` / `FAILED`). `BambuFTPClient.delete_file` detects the 550 case via `isinstance(e, ftplib.error_perm) and str(e).startswith("550")` (same pattern already used in the download path for the symmetric `FileNotOnPrinterError` sentinel from #972). `delete_file_async` now returns `DeleteResult`. Both post-finish cleanup helpers (`main.py::on_print_finished` SD branch + `_cleanup_forced_timelapse`) only WARN when at least one candidate returned `FAILED`; an all-`NOT_FOUND` outcome logs DEBUG ("nothing to delete — printer likely self-cleaned"). The cleanup helper also no longer burns the 2 s × 3 retry budget on a `NOT_FOUND` result (550 will never recover by waiting); only `FAILED` triggers backoff. `DELETE /printers/{id}/files/...` returns 404 (not 500) on `NOT_FOUND`, more accurate for the user-facing UI. Three other production callers (`print_scheduler` pre-upload delete, two `background_dispatch` fire-and-forget cleanups) are unchanged at the call site — they discard the return value. **Tests:** `test_delete_file` and `test_delete_file_async` in `test_bambu_ftp.py` switched to the enum (3 cases each). 2 new regression tests in `test_cleanup_forced_timelapse.py`: `test_forced_no_warning_when_every_dir_returns_not_found` pins the #1721 path (every candidate dir → 550 → no WARNING, one DEBUG summary), `test_forced_warns_when_any_dir_returns_failed` pins the counterpart (any FAILED keeps the WARNING — that's the signal the maintainer wants). `caplog` asserts the log record's level + content directly. Full backend suite 5941/5941 green; ruff clean; frontend untouched (rebuild + i18n parity confirmed clean per `feedback_run_all_ci_checks`). No migration, no new i18n keys, no schema changes.
- **Virtual printer external spool (`vt_tray`) went "invalid" right after a slicer filament pick (#1622 round 5, reported by @shaddowlink)** — On a P1S in non-proxy VP mode, the reporter picked a filament for the external spool slot in BambuStudio's Device tab and the slot immediately rendered as invalid (color only, no profile, no K-profile, no nozzle temps), but recovered after a virtual-printer reload. AMS slot picks worked correctly. Wire dumps (BAMBUDDY_VP_DUMP_WIRE=1) captured the asymmetry: the bridge's outgoing 1 Hz cached-as-base push delivered `vt_tray = {tray_info_idx, tray_color}` — 2 fields — where a real P1S sends ~20 (`tray_type`, `state`, `remain`, `k`, `n`, `cali_idx`, `nozzle_temp_min/max`, `tray_uuid`, `xcam_info`, ...). The same `_out.json` showed AMS slots with the full 24-field dict because `_merge_ams_dict` deep-merged them. **Root cause:** Bambu firmware sends a partial `vt_tray` incremental right after acknowledging an `ams_filament_setting` for `ams_id=255` (external spool) — carrying just the fields the slicer's pick changed. The round-4 per-field accumulate (#1622 / da799447) carried over prev keys NOT present in new, but `vt_tray` IS present in new, so the cached dict was REPLACED wholesale with the 2-field partial. The next 1 Hz cached-as-base push handed the slicer the stripped vt_tray; BambuStudio rendered the slot as invalid. Reloading the VP forced a reconnect → pushall → full vt_tray restored, and the cycle repeated on the next pick. **Fix:** `mqtt_bridge.py::_on_printer_raw` now applies the same per-field accumulate one level deeper: for every top-level key whose prev AND new are both dicts, overlay new onto prev rather than replace. `ams` is explicitly excluded (already deep-merged by `_merge_ams_dict`). The same overlay protects `device`, `online`, `upgrade_state`, `ipcam`, `upload`, `net` against future firmware partials with the same shape; the `net.info` IP rewrite path is unaffected because `_rewrite_net_info_ips` runs against `new_state["net"]` before caching and the rewritten list overrides the cached one on overlay (only `net.conf` and friends, when sent without `info`, draw from prev now). **Tests:** new `test_partial_vt_tray_update_overlays_onto_cached_full_dict` regression case in `test_vp_mqtt_bridge.py::TestPushStatusCache` constructs the exact P1S wire shape — pushall with the full ~20-field vt_tray, followed by the `{tray_info_idx, tray_color}` partial that shaddowlink's dump captured — and asserts `tray_type`, `state`, `remain`, `k`, `n`, `cali_idx`, `nozzle_temp_min/max`, `tray_uuid`, `id` all survive while the two incoming fields take their new values. All 53 bridge tests stay green; 287/287 across the broader VP test surface (mqtt_bridge / mqtt_server / vp_wire / virtual_printer); ruff clean. Bridge code path only; no migration, no new i18n keys, no frontend touch.
- **Library G-code preview returned raw ZIP bytes as `text/plain` for sidecar-sliced rows (#1709, root cause + fix from @yanglei1980)** — `slice_and_persist` writes its output as a `.gcode.3mf` (a ZIP container with embedded G-code) but persisted the LibraryFile row with `file_type="gcode"`. The G-code preview endpoint at `library.py::get_gcode` short-circuits on `file_type == "gcode"` and streams the on-disk bytes with `media_type="text/plain"`, so every preview of a sidecar-sliced row handed the embedded viewer the raw ZIP body (`PK\x03\x04…`) instead of toolpath text — the viewer rendered nothing. External-folder scans (#1600) already typed `.gcode.3mf` rows correctly and hit the unzip branch, so the bug was specific to the sidecar slice path. Plain `.gcode` uploads were unaffected (their on-disk bytes really are text). **Fix:** (1) forward — `slice_and_persist` now persists `file_type="gcode.3mf"`, matching what `_classify_file_type` returns for the `.gcode.3mf` extension and what external-scan rows already use; (2) back-compat — `get_gcode` also routes to the unzip branch when the filename ends with `.gcode.3mf`, so rows already written under the bug self-heal on first preview without a DB migration. **UI gates:** three frontend call sites that gated badge colour or the preview-eye icon on `file_type == "gcode"` were extended to also accept `"gcode.3mf"` — `FileManagerPage.tsx` badge + viewer-affordance gate, `ProjectDetailPage.tsx` badge — so the new typing doesn't regress visuals. The print / queue / slice action buttons use filename-based helpers (`isSlicedFilename`, `isSliceableFilename`) that already accept `.gcode.3mf`, so they need no change. **Tests:** new `test_library_get_gcode_recovers_legacy_gcode_type_for_3mf` regression case in `test_library_api.py` constructs a row with `file_type="gcode"` + `.gcode.3mf` filename pointing at a real ZIP, asserts the response is `text/plain`, contains `G28`, and does NOT start with `PK` — pins the legacy-row recovery path. Existing `test_library_get_gcode_endpoint_accepts_compound_file_type` continues to cover the forward path. Full backend suite 5920/5920 green; ruff clean; frontend ESLint + `npm run build` clean; FileManagerPage / ProjectDetailPage / FileManagerExternalFolder vitests 69/69 green; i18n parity unchanged (no new keys). PR #1709 closed for CONTRIBUTING.md non-compliance (branched from main, no issue, template incomplete); root cause + fix shape preserved here on `dev`.
- **Cloud + Orca Cloud preset resolver: pin `type` and `from` to CLI-accepted values (#1712 follow-up, reported by maziggy on the Mecha Mewtwo slice)** — Removing bundle mode (entry above) routed every slot through the cross-tier preset resolver. Cloud-tier presets surfaced two latent shape mismatches that bundle dispatch had been masking by materialising preset JSONs from `.bbscfg`-on-disk. (1) **`type` field**: Bambu Cloud labels presets with `type: "printer"` / `"print"` / `"filament"`, but the BambuStudio CLI's `--load-settings` parser only accepts `"machine"` / `"process"` / `"filament"`. The user's first failing slice produced `operator(): unknown config type print of file preset.json in load-settings` with exit code -5; the sidecar surfaces this as a generic "The input preset file is invalid and can not be parsed." (2) **`from` field**: Bambu Cloud's filament detail endpoint routinely ships presets with empty `from` (or no `from` at all). The CLI's compatibility check rejects either with `operator(): file ... 's from unsupported` (the double space in stderr = empty value). Same -5 exit, same generic "input preset invalid" surface. The sidecar's `normalizeFromField` already maps `"User"` / `"System"` → `"system"`, but it doesn't touch empty / missing values. **Fix:** `_resolve_cloud` and `_resolve_orca_cloud` now force `type = _SLOT_TO_PROFILE_TYPE[slot]` and `from = "system"` on the payload before `json.dumps`, mirroring what `_resolve_standard` already does for the standard-tier stub. Both fields are unconditionally rewritten — idempotent on already-correct payloads, and pinning to "system" is consistent with how Bambuddy presents these post-flatten presets to the CLI (no parent walk needed, the cloud detail comes back fully expanded). **Tests:** new `test_cloud_rewrites_type_field_for_cli` (7 parametric cases covering all six type-name variants Bambu Cloud emits plus the missing-type case), `test_cloud_pins_from_field_to_system` (4 cases: empty, already-system, GUI User, GUI System), and `test_cloud_synthesises_from_field_when_missing` (the actual Mecha Mewtwo failure shape) pin the resolver-level contract. Existing happy-path assertions for `_resolve_cloud` / `_resolve_orca_cloud` updated to include the new fields. 28/28 preset-resolver tests green, full backend suite 5919/5919 green, ruff clean. **What this can NOT recover:** if Bambu Cloud later starts emitting a `from` value other than empty / "User" / "System" that genuinely means something (e.g. "project"), Bambuddy will silently flatten it to "system" too. We accept that trade-off because the alternative is leaving "input preset invalid" failures on every cloud slice, and "system" matches how the sidecar's own resolver normalises the post-flatten state.
- **Virtual printer cache drained capability/lifecycle fields between pushalls, greying out Device-tab UIs (#1622 round 4, reported by @shaddowlink)** — Reporter on a P1S in archive mode saw the AMS-slot filament dropdown empty and the "Manage calibration data" UI disabled in BambuStudio's Device tab, while the same panels worked correctly on his H2D. After three rounds of triage on the printer-side payload (which traced clean — bridge passes `vt_tray` byte-identical, `tray_info_idx` resolves, AMS slots populate), the actual asymmetry surfaced in the bridge cache dumps: P1S cached `print` state contained 17 top-level keys; H2D contained 99. The missing fields were exactly the capability/lifecycle gates BambuStudio reads to decide which Device-tab UIs to enable (`cali_version`, `print_type`, `gcode_state`, `mc_print_stage`, `mc_stage`, `device`, `cfg`, `home_flag`, the `mc_*` family, fan speeds — ~80 fields). **Root cause:** Bambu firmware sends a full top-level field set in pushall responses (on `pushall` request / printer reconnect) and ~1 Hz incrementals carrying just what changed (typically temps, fan, wifi, status). `_on_printer_raw` in `mqtt_bridge.py` cached the latest push as `new_state = copy.deepcopy(print_data)` — replacing the prior cache wholesale — then re-merged only a hand-picked allowlist (`_SLICER_VISIBLE_STICKY_KEYS`) of 14 keys back from prev. The allowlist covered the #1371 / #1387 / #1228 / #1558 failure modes but missed capability/lifecycle fields entirely, so every 1 Hz incremental drained ~80 fields out of the cache and the slicer's gated UIs flipped off as soon as the cache thinned. The code comment claimed the cache "mirrors the same preservation pattern Bambuddy uses for its own internal state in bambu_mqtt.py" but it didn't: internal state is updated per-field (`if "X" in data: self.state.X = ...`), never drops what it's seen, and accumulates monotonically. **Fix:** replace the allowlist-preserve with per-field accumulate. For every key in the prior cache, carry over verbatim when the incoming push omits it; let new values overwrite when present. The `_merge_ams_dict` deep-merge for partial `ams` blobs stays (#1387 / #1371 regression guards still pass). `_SLICER_VISIBLE_STICKY_KEYS` is removed entirely — the new logic is a strict superset of every case the allowlist handled. **Why most P1S users don't hit it:** timing. The typical workflow is connect → BS issues pushall → cache fills → click Device tab within seconds → UI works. shaddowlink's sequence kept BS idle long enough between pushalls that the cache thinned to incremental-only state before he clicked. X1C users hit the same drain but don't notice — older BS capability spec doesn't gate the same UIs on `cali_version` / `mc_print_stage`. H2D escaped detection because his captures happened to land close to a pushall reply (cache still fat). **Tests:** new `test_incremental_push_preserves_non_allowlisted_capability_fields` regression case in `test_vp_mqtt_bridge.py::TestPushStatusCache` constructs a full push with `cali_version` / `print_type` / `gcode_state` / `mc_print_stage` / `mc_stage` / `device` / `cfg` / `home_flag`, follows it with a temps-only incremental, and asserts every capability field survives. All 51 existing bridge cache tests stay green — same behaviour for the allowlist subset, plus the formerly-dropped fields. Bridge code path; no migration, no new i18n keys.
- **Force-color-match checkbox missing when scheduling against a specific printer (#1717, reported by @SamNuttall)** — The Print Queue's schedule dialog hides the per-slot "Force color match" checkbox in the "Specific printer" path. Picking "Any A1" (model-mode dispatch) renders `FilamentOverride` which carries the checkbox, but picking a single printer renders `FilamentMapping` instead — a separate component that had no force-match UI. The dispatcher in `print_scheduler.py:535` already honours `force_color_match` regardless of how the queue item was created (the flag survives end-to-end on the `filament_overrides` payload `buildFilamentOverridesArray` constructs in `PrintModal/index.tsx:613`), so this was a pure UI gap — printer-mode users could not request the safety guard from the modal even though the backend would have respected it. **Fix:** `FilamentMapping` accepts new optional `forceColorMatch` + `onForceColorMatchChange` props mirroring `FilamentOverride`'s shape; it renders the same ``-iconed checkbox under each filament row when a handler is provided. `PrintModal/index.tsx:1100` passes the existing `forceColorMatch` state and a `setForceColorMatch` setter through — same state object both modes write into, so toggling between modes preserves what the user selected. No new i18n keys (the existing `printModal.forceColorMatch` key already ships in all 11 locales). The checkbox is suppressed when no handler is wired (avoids dead UI in callers that don't manage the flag). **Tests:** new `renders the per-slot force-color-match checkbox in printer mode (#1717)` case clicks the checkbox and asserts `onForceColorMatchChange(slotId, true)` fires; companion `omits the force-color-match checkbox when no handler is provided` case pins the absent-handler branch. Existing FTS dropdown-filter tests stay green. `FilamentMapping.test.tsx` 4/4 green; combined PrintModal + FilamentOverride + FilamentMapping suite 73/73 green; eslint clean; frontend build clean; i18n parity 5120 leaves × 11 locales green.
- **In-app updater fails when DATA_DIR is on a separate mount from the install (#1715, reported by @francescocozzi)** — Native installs that follow the systemd template `WorkingDirectory=/opt/bambuddy` with `Environment="DATA_DIR=/srv/bambuddy/data"` (or any layout where `DATA_DIR` is not a subdirectory of the install path) couldn't apply in-app updates. Every git step in `_perform_update` (`remote get-url`, `remote set-url`, `fetch`, `reset --hard`) used `cwd=settings.base_dir`, and `safe.directory` was pointed at `base_dir` too. On the standard install (DATA_DIR=INSTALL_PATH/data) this happened to work by accident — git walks up from a subdirectory of the repo to find `.git` — but on a separate-mount layout the data dir is not under the install, the walk-up has nowhere to go, and every operation returns "fatal: not a git repository." Even on the standard install `safe.directory={base_dir}` was wrong (it must equal the repo root git discovers, not the data dir), surfacing on hardened systemd units as "fatal: detected dubious ownership." **Fix:** route every git subprocess in `_perform_update` and `_origin_points_at_repo` through `cwd=settings.app_dir` (the working tree), and set `safe.directory={app_dir}` to match. `app_dir` is now resolved once at the top of `_perform_update` instead of lazily re-resolved before the pip step. The `base_dir` parameter on `_origin_points_at_repo` is renamed to `app_dir` so the signature documents the contract. The pip-install step keeps `cwd=app_dir` (unchanged — that step was already correct). **Tests:** new `test_perform_update_runs_git_in_app_dir_when_data_dir_on_separate_mount` integration case constructs a sibling-paths layout (`tmp/opt/bambuddy` + `tmp/srv/bambuddy/data` — the exact #1715 shape), mocks `asyncio.create_subprocess_exec` to capture every call's cwd, and pins (a) every git subprocess runs with `cwd=app_dir`, (b) the embedded `safe.directory=` config equals `app_dir` on every git call. The existing pip-cwd test stays green (pip's cwd was already `app_dir`). Existing SSH-origin-preserve + origin-rewrite + reset-target tests stay green (they don't assert on git cwd). Full `test_updates_api.py` 21/21 green; ruff clean. **Credit:** root cause + fix shape from francescocozzi via PR #1716 (couldn't be merged as-is — that branch had drifted off an older `dev` and pulled in unrelated upstream commits including a version regression).
- **SliceModal preset-lookup precedence + cross-tier dedup + signed-out banner (#1712, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — After the Orca Cloud integration shipped (2026-06-04), every user — including Bambu-Cloud-only / Bambu-Studio-preferred users — got Orca Cloud as the top tier across the SliceModal preset picker, the per-preset auto-pick scoring, the dropdown's optgroup rendering, the AMS slot picker's filament sort, and the backend dedup precedence. A Bambu-Cloud / X1C user reported seeing his Bambu Cloud profiles disappear from auto-pick because Orca Cloud's empty tier shadowed them. The cross-tier dedup (introduced with #1150 and inherited as-is by the Orca change) compounded the problem: a name that existed in multiple tiers showed in only ONE group, so a user with a local-imported and Orca-synced "Bambu PLA Basic" never saw the Orca copy as a picker option — even though they curate both sources. And the cloud-status banner (`CloudStatusBanner`) nagged signed-out users with a permanent *"Sign in to Orca Cloud (Profiles → Orca Cloud) to see your Orca presets"* at the top of every SliceModal open — even after a user had explicitly logged out of Orca Cloud. The Bambu Cloud banner had the symmetric problem. **Fix — order:** precedence is `local > orca_cloud > cloud > standard` across `SliceModal.tsx` (`SLICE_MODAL_TIER_ORDER` + `TIER_BONUS` + dropdown tier list), `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.tsx` (`sourceOrder`), and docstrings in `slicer_presets.py` / `schemas/slicer_presets.py` / `client.ts`. Local imports win (the user did them on purpose), Orca Cloud comes next, Bambu Cloud, bundled fallback last. The order drives auto-pick + visual group order; it does NOT hide profiles. **Fix — no dedup, full lists:** `_dedupe_by_name` is replaced by `_enrich_cloud_metadata`, which returns every tier's full preset list across all three slots (printer / process / filament) — a name in local AND orca_cloud AND cloud renders in EACH of their groups so the user can pick any source. The only work the function still does is filament-metadata backfill: a Bambu Cloud filament without its own `filament_type` / `filament_colour` inherits values from a same-named local / orca_cloud / standard entry so it can still score in `pickFilamentForSlot`. Printer + process presets carry their metadata inline and need no enrich. Frontend code already iterates tiers in priority order and surfaces every entry — no change needed there once the backend stops filtering. **Fix — banner:** `CloudStatusBanner` now silently returns null on `not_authenticated` in addition to `ok` — applies symmetrically to both Bambu and Orca cloud banners. `expired` (token broke) and `unreachable` (network / service down) still surface — those are real breakage states a previously-signed-in user needs to see. Sign-in lives on the Profiles page; the modal doesn't need to advertise it. The `slice.cloud.notAuthenticated` / `slice.orcaCloud.notAuthenticated` i18n keys stay in the locale files (dormant) so re-enabling later doesn't need a re-translation pass. **Fix — ConfigureAmsSlotModal source badges:** before this change, the per-row source badge fired three branches independently — `local` got a green "Local" badge, `builtin` got an amber "Built-in" badge, and a blue "Custom" badge appeared on top of those when `isUser` was true. Since ALL Orca Cloud entries are marked `isUser: true` and Bambu Cloud user presets also get the same flag, the result was visually inconsistent: Orca Cloud rows showed *only* "Custom" (no source identification, no way to tell them from Bambu Cloud user presets), Bambu Cloud built-in rows had NO badge at all, and the "Custom" badge collided with the actual source. Replaced with a single source badge per row: green "Local", purple "Orca Cloud" (new), bambu-blue "Bambu Cloud" (new), amber "Built-in". One badge per row; one colour per source; the `isUser` distinction within the Bambu Cloud tier is dropped (the preset name itself carries the "is this user-authored" signal). Same change in both render blocks (the filament-list code is duplicated in the modal — kept the duplication local rather than refactoring out a helper component in this PR to keep the diff tight). i18n: 2 new keys (`configureAmsSlot.orcaCloud`, `configureAmsSlot.bambuCloud`) translated to all 11 locales — both are brand names, already on the per-locale `IDENTICAL_TO_EN_ALLOWED` lists so the parity check is satisfied without per-locale variants. The dormant `configureAmsSlot.custom` key stays in the locale files. **Tests:** `TestEnrichCloudMetadata` replaces `TestDedupeByName` (5 cases): regression guard pinning that a name in all four tiers appears in EACH (not just local), tier order preserved within a tier, Bambu Cloud filament metadata backfilled from local, backfill falls through to orca / standard when local doesn't carry the name, backfill does NOT overwrite Bambu Cloud's own metadata when present. The "renders a sign-in banner when cloud_status is not_authenticated" case flipped to assert no banner appears, with the test name updated to call out the #1712 reason. Backend `test_slicer_presets.py` 47/47 green; `SliceModal.test.tsx` 34/34 green; `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.test.tsx` 24/24 green; ruff clean; frontend build clean; i18n parity 5120 leaves × 11 locales green.
- **Telegram (and other image-bearing) finish notification on a reprint-from-archive showed the original print's finish photo instead of the new run's (#1707, reported by @kycrna)** — P2S user reprinted an archived job and observed the Telegram notification arriving with the photo of the *original* print (white box) attached to the completion message for the *new* run (black box). **Root cause:** reprints reuse the source archive row — `register_expected_print` stores the source `archive_id` in `_expected_prints`, and the on-print-start expected-archive promotion branch at `main.py:2207-2245` updates the row's status / started_at / printer_id / subtask_id but never reset `archive.timelapse_path`. Two failure modes cascaded from the stale path: (a) `_scan_for_timelapse_with_retries` early-returns at `main.py:3062` with `if archive.timelapse_path: return` — the reprint's new timelapse MP4 sitting on the printer's SD card was never downloaded, the archive's `timelapse_path` kept pointing at the original run's local file; (b) `_capture_finish_photo_from_timelapse` polls `archive.timelapse_path` and immediately found the *original* video, extracted ITS last frame as `finish__.jpg`, and handed those bytes to `_background_notifications` as `image_data` — which then went out to Telegram via the `sendPhoto` path. The filename was new (so log lines and the archive's `photos` list looked correct), but the pixels were the original run's finish frame. Surface was specific to the timelapse-prefer path: with `data.timelapse_was_active` true and no external camera, `prefer_timelapse_source` was True, which is the exact configuration on P2S with timelapse-on for both runs. External-camera, buffered-frame, and fresh-RTSP fallback paths grab the *current* camera frame, so users on those paths saw correct photos and the bug stayed hidden. **Fix:** at expected-archive promotion, capture and clear `archive.timelapse_path` to None before the commit, and `os.unlink` the stale on-disk video so reprints don't accumulate orphaned MP4s in the archive directory. Photos list is left alone — accumulating one finish photo per run across the archive's lifetime is the right behaviour. The unlink is wrapped in `OSError`-catching best-effort logging so a missing file (manual delete, archive purge, container rebuild with bind-mount drift) doesn't break promotion. The clear-and-unlink runs unconditionally when `timelapse_path` is set, so even if a user has been reprinting under the buggy build for months, the next reprint self-heals. **Tests:** 3 new cases in `test_reprint_clears_stale_timelapse.py` exercise the full `on_print_start` callback through the expected-archive branch — happy path (path cleared + file unlinked), no-prior-timelapse (no-op, promotion still succeeds), missing-stale-file (best-effort unlink doesn't raise). Full `test_print_start_expected_promotion.py` + `test_print_start_assigns_printer_id_to_vp_archive.py` suite (28/28) stays green; ruff clean.
- **Connection diagnostic no longer flags `external_storage: fail` on A1 / A1 Mini, which physically have no MicroSD slot (#1703, reported by @MartinNYHC)** — Bug report from an A1 user complained that BambuStudio and OrcaSlicer don't have an "external storage" tick box (correct — there's nothing to toggle, the A1 series ships without a SD card slot at all) while the Bambuddy support bundle simultaneously reported `external_storage: fail` in the printer's connection diagnostic. The two together left the user thinking Bambuddy was wrong about a setting their hardware doesn't have. **Root cause:** the `external_storage` check at `services/printer_diagnostic.py:179-189` reads `state.store_to_sdcard`, which is parsed from MQTT `home_flag` bit 11. On A1 and A1 Mini that bit is never set (no hardware slot, no firmware-side toggle, no slicer-side equivalent), so the value pushes as `False` and the check fell through to `fail` instead of `skip`. **Fix:** new `NO_EXTERNAL_STORAGE_MODELS` frozenset in `utils/printer_models.py` enumerating A1, A1 Mini, and their internal codes (N1, N2S, A04, A11, A12), plus a `has_external_storage(model)` helper that returns False for those and True for everything else (unknown models default to True so the check stays active for any future Bambu model that ships *with* a slot — new no-slot models must be added to the set explicitly). The diagnostic now short-circuits to `skip` before reading `store_to_sdcard` when `printer.model` is in the set. **What this does NOT change:** X1 / X1E / P1S / P1P / P2S / H2D / H2D Pro / H2C / H2S / X2D continue to evaluate `store_to_sdcard` exactly as before — the home-flag-bit-off → `fail` path is still the right signal for them. **The companion FTP-upload-timeout symptom in the same bug report (ftp code 28 from BambuStudio when sending to the proxy VP) is a separate Docker-bridge-mode networking constraint, not addressed by this change.** **Tests:** 8 new cases — `TestHasExternalStorage` (5 cases) pins the model list, internal-code aliasing, case/whitespace normalisation, unknown-defaults-true, and null/empty-defaults-true; `TestExternalStorageCheck` gains `test_skips_on_a1_no_external_storage_slot`, `test_skips_on_a1_mini_no_external_storage_slot`, and `test_still_fails_on_x1c_when_toggle_off` (regression guard that the model-aware skip doesn't accidentally silence the genuine signal on slotted models). Full `test_printer_models.py` + `test_printer_diagnostic.py` + archives integration suite green (172/172); ruff clean.
- **AMS slot card surfaced the previous spool's preset name after RFID auto-assigned a new spool (reported with H2D-1 / AMS-B3 / PLA-CF showing as "Bambu PLA Silk+")** — Reporter inserted a fresh Bambu PLA-CF spool into AMS-B3, RFID identified it correctly, but the slot card kept showing "Bambu PLA Silk+" (the name from a PLA Silk+ spool that had occupied the slot back in March). Confirmed in the live data: `slot_preset_mappings` row for `(printer_id=1, ams_id=1, tray_id=2)` was `preset_id=GFSA06_09, preset_name='Bambu PLA Silk+', updated_at=2026-03-15` — three months stale. **Root cause:** `slot_preset_mappings.preset_name` is first in the PrintersPage display chain (`PrintersPage.tsx:3624`) and overrides the spool's own `slicer_filament_name` plus the cloud catalog `cloudInfo.name`. The internal-mode manual-assign path (`inventory.apply_spool_to_slot_via_mqtt`) kept this row in sync, but the internal-mode RFID auto-assign path (`spool_tag_matcher.auto_assign_spool`) skipped it entirely. The Spoolman-mode sync path (`main.auto_sync_spoolman_ams_trays`) also skipped it — same bug shape, latent for Spoolman users who'd never manually configured a slot preset, active for those who had. **Fix — three writers in lockstep via one shared helper.** New `backend/app/services/slot_preset_writer.py` exposes a primitive `upsert_slot_preset` plus two convenience wrappers: `upsert_slot_preset_for_spool` for internal `Spool` ORM objects (local-preset numeric ids → `local_{n}`, cloud ids run through `filament_id_to_setting_id`) and `upsert_slot_preset_for_spoolman_spool` for Spoolman dicts (filament.name → preset_name, tray_info_idx → preset_id). All three call sites — the manual-assign block in `inventory.py:396-438`, the RFID auto-assign tail in `spool_tag_matcher.py:auto_assign_spool`, and the per-tray-sync branch in `main.py:auto_sync_spoolman_ams_trays` — now go through the helper. **Self-heal:** existing stale rows from past spool swaps get rewritten the next time a fresh spool is detected on the same slot. No migration script needed. **What this also covers per `feedback_inventory_modes_parity`:** the bug shape exists in both internal and Spoolman modes, so the patch ships fixes for both inventory paths in the same drop — a Spoolman user with a manually-configured slot preset would have seen the same stale-name behavior after every RFID swap until the row was overwritten through Configure Slot. **Tests:** new `test_slot_preset_writer.py` (6 cases) pins the helper contracts — no-op on empty preset_id, upsert idempotency, Spoolman filament.name → preset_name, fallback to material → tray_sub_brands → tray_type, stale-row overwrite from the Spoolman path, skip when tray_info_idx is unknown. New `test_spool_tag_matcher.py` cases (3) pin the internal RFID-auto-assign path — stale-row overwrite (the exact reporter shape: PLA Silk+ → PLA-CF), fresh insert when no row exists, `local_{n}` formatting for numeric local-preset ids.

- **Stats page Failure Analysis widget rendered raw camelCase keys instead of translated reasons (#1687 follow-up, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — After #1687 part 4 shipped the per-row Print Log editor, the reporter classified a couple of failed runs and saw "filamentRunout" / "cloggedNozzle" (the literal camelCase keys) appear under Statistics → Failure Analysis → Top Failure Reasons, while the same rows rendered correctly as "Filament runout" / "Clogged nozzle" on the Print Log table. Surfaced an inconsistency I introduced when shipping the new editor: the new Print Log row editor saves the camelCase key (`filamentRunout`) which is what the new backend PATCH validates against, but the older `EditArchiveModal` was still saving the localised label (`"Filament runout"`) as the value — two formats landing in the same `PrintLogEntry.failure_reason` column from two different UI surfaces. The Failure Analysis widget at `frontend/src/pages/StatsPage.tsx:817` and the per-archive run history sub-table at `frontend/src/components/PrintLogTable.tsx:81` both rendered the raw column value without running it through i18n, so the new key-form values surfaced as literal keys. **Fix — three sites in one drop:** (1) `StatsPage.tsx` and (2) `PrintLogTable.tsx` now wrap the value in `t('editArchive.failureReasons.${reason}', { defaultValue: reason })` — same pattern already used at `ArchivesPage.tsx:3874` for the Print Log table. The `defaultValue` fallback keeps legacy translated-text rows rendering as-is, no regression. (3) `EditArchiveModal.tsx` now saves the camelCase key (``) instead of the localised label, matching the new editor's wire format. On modal open, a reverse-lookup against the current locale resolves any legacy translated-text value back to its key so the dropdown pre-selects the right option — every save thereafter converts that row forward to the key format, so the data set self-heals over time without a migration script. Added `htmlFor`/`id` linkage to the failure-reason ``/`` pair as a side benefit (lets `getByLabelText` in tests reach the control, plus a small a11y improvement). **What this also fixes invisibly:** German / Japanese / Turkish users who classified rows under one UI language and then switched languages would have seen their historical buckets fragment in the Failure Analysis widget (each translation = its own group). With keys as the storage format, language switch no longer reclassifies anything. **Tests:** 5 new vitest cases — StatsPage `translates camelCase failure-reason keys` and `renders legacy translated-text failure reasons unchanged`; EditArchiveModal `preselects the option when the stored value is already a camelCase key`, `reverse-looks-up a legacy translated value back to its key`, and `sends the camelCase key on save, not the translated label`; PrintLogModal `translates camelCase failure_reason keys`. The existing `shows failure_reason under failed runs` case (which checks legacy text path) keeps passing under the defaultValue fallback. Full vitest 58 / 58 across touched files. ESLint clean; frontend build clean (vite 9.61s); i18n parity 5118 leaves × 11 locales green (no new keys — reuses `editArchive.failureReasons.*`).
- **System page boot time was rendered with a doubled timezone offset (#1690 follow-up, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — After the original #1690 fix landed in 0.2.4.6, the reporter on UTC+3 (Turkey) confirmed uptime was correct but boot time displayed +3 hours ahead of reality. **Root cause:** `backend/app/api/routes/system.py` built `boot_time` as a NAIVE LOCAL datetime via `datetime.fromtimestamp(psutil.Process(1).create_time())` and serialised it with `.isoformat()`, which emits no timezone marker (e.g. `"2026-06-09T11:22:05"`). The frontend's `parseUTCDate()` helper at `frontend/src/utils/date.ts:206` is documented to append `'Z'` when no tz marker is present, treating the string as UTC, then `toLocaleString` converts UTC → local — applying the local offset on top of an already-local timestamp. Uptime was unaffected because it's computed entirely backend-side as `datetime.now() - boot_time`, two naive-local values whose delta is correct regardless of the missing tz info. **Fix:** make both boot_time and the uptime anchor tz-aware UTC — `datetime.fromtimestamp(ts, tz=timezone.utc)` on the main path and the `psutil.boot_time()` fallback, and `datetime.now(timezone.utc)` in the uptime subtraction. `isoformat()` then emits `"+00:00"` and the frontend's parseUTCDate uses the marker as-is. Same naive-datetime pattern surfaced in two adjacent `generated_at` fields — the storage-usage cache snapshot in `system.py` and the support bundle root in `support.py`. Neither is rendered as a wall-clock timestamp in the frontend today, but both now emit tz-aware UTC for consistency so any future surface that does render them won't recreate this bug. **Tests:** new `test_boot_time_isoformat_carries_utc_marker` regression case asserts the boot_time string ends in `+00:00` (or `Z`) — without that marker the frontend double-converts, which is exactly the reporter's symptom. Existing `test_boot_time_uses_pid1_create_time` and `test_boot_time_falls_back_to_psutil_boot_time_on_pid1_failure` still pass under the tz-aware values because `1700345600` is `2023-11-18T20:53:20+00:00` UTC, so the date-prefix assertion is unaffected. Full system API suite 21/21 green; support API 72/72 green; ruff clean.
- **A1 / A1 Mini internal-code map was swapped in `PRINTER_MODEL_ID_MAP` (surfaced while scoping A2L support, #1684)** — `backend/app/utils/printer_models.py` mapped `N1 → "A1"` and `N2S → "A1 Mini"`, but every other registry that names these codes — `firmware_check.py` (`N2S → "a1"`), `virtual_printer/manager.py` (both the model map and the serial-prefix map: `N2S → "03900A"` is the A1's `039` prefix, `N1 → "03000A"` is the A1 Mini's `030`), `printer_manager.py` `A1_MODELS` — consistently uses the opposite (correct) direction. Any path that resolved an A1-family printer by internal code rather than serial prefix would silently misclassify. **Fix:** swap `PRINTER_MODEL_ID_MAP` to `N1 → "A1 Mini"`, `N2S → "A1"`; the matching comment in `LINEAR_RAIL_MODELS` was also wrong and got the same swap (the frozenset's contents don't change — both codes were already in it — so this is cosmetic, but kept the file self-consistent). New regression test class `TestA1SeriesModelIds` pins both directions so a future re-flip fails loudly. Functional impact in practice is small (most A1 detection runs off the serial prefix), but the inconsistency was a footgun for any future caller that trusted `normalize_printer_model_id`. Backend printer-model suite 46 / 46 green; ruff clean.
- **Print Queue filament-override panel showed raw 3MF base material instead of Bambu Studio's sub-brand colour name (#1718, reported by @SamNuttall)** — The Print Queue's filament-override panel rendered every "Original" row as `{type} ({colorName})` — just the raw 3MF `` attribute, which is always the base material ("PLA", "PETG-HF") — plus the generic color-bucket name from `getColorName(hex)`. A model sliced with "Bambu PLA Matte Charcoal" therefore showed up as "PLA (Black)" in the dropdown's original-filament option, and the schedule dialog gave no way to confirm the user was actually overriding what they thought they were. The 3MF DOES carry the Bambu SKU (`tray_info_idx`, e.g. `GFA01`) on each `` element — `backend/app/api/routes/archives.py:3634/3665` already returns it in the `/archives/{id}/filament-requirements` response — but `FilamentReqsData` at `frontend/src/components/PrintModal/types.ts:178` didn't carry the field, so `FilamentOverride.tsx` couldn't see it. The resolution path was also already in place: `_BUILTIN_FILAMENT_NAMES` at `backend/app/api/routes/cloud.py:568` maps Bambu factory SKUs (`GFA01` → "Bambu PLA Matte"), exposed as `/cloud/builtin-filaments`; `/cloud/filament-id-map` returns the same shape for user custom presets (`P*` prefix). `KProfilesView.tsx:791` already merges those two for its own labels. **Fix:** add `tray_info_idx?: string` to the `FilamentReqsData.filaments` type. `FilamentOverride` now loads both maps via `useQuery(['builtin-filaments'])` + `useQuery(['filament-id-map'])` (both shared caches the rest of the app already populates, `staleTime: 5 min`) and merges them into a single `idx → name` lookup — user cloud preset names win over the builtin entries for the same id (the user-authored label is more specific). Both the dropdown's "original" placeholder option AND the swatch tooltip use the resolved name; the raw `req.type` stays as the fallback when the SKU is unknown to both sources so unknown ids degrade to today's behaviour instead of rendering blank. Color side note: Bambu Studio's specific color names ("Charcoal") live in their cloud catalog, not in the 3MF — the file carries only the hex — so Bambuddy still renders the color from `getColorName(hex)`. "Bambu PLA Matte (Black)" is the realistic best we can do; user-readable sub-brand IS now exposed. **Color disambiguation (round 2):** the sub-brand half above is necessary but not sufficient — `getColorName(hex)` resolved through `/api/inventory/colors/map`, which collapses every catalog entry sharing a hex to a single name via "Bambu Lab > is_default > first" priority. Hex `#000000` has 9 Bambu Lab catalog entries (Black for 8 materials, Charcoal for PLA Matte) all at the same priority, so "Black" — first encountered — wins the race and "Charcoal" is dropped before the frontend ever sees it. A new endpoint `GET /api/inventory/colors/by-material?hex=X&material=Y` (`backend/app/api/routes/inventory.py:get_color_by_material`) preserves the material context: same case-insensitive hex match as `/colors/map`, then a `material` filter on top. When no entry matches the requested material it falls back to the same priority order as `/colors/map`, so callers without a material hint (or with an unknown one) get exactly the existing answer — no regression for the flat-map consumers (PrintersPage, InventoryPage). `FilamentOverride.tsx` derives a material hint from the resolved sub-brand by stripping the leading brand token ("Bambu PLA Matte" → "PLA Matte", "PolyLite ABS" → "ABS"), dispatches one `useQuery` per slot via `useQueries` keyed on `(hex, material)`, and uses `data.color_name || getColorName(hex)` so a slow query never blanks out the placeholder. Five new tests in `test_color_catalog_extras.py` pin: same hex + different material returns the correctly-paired name; unknown material falls back to priority order; missing hex returns `color_name=null` (no 404); mixed-case input on both sides matches; invalid hex (<6 chars) returns null without crashing. Three new vitest cases pin: PLA Matte Charcoal scenario lands "Bambu PLA Matte (Charcoal)", per-slot disambiguation (regression guard so a Matte slot doesn't adopt a Basic slot's answer when both share a hex), null lookup falls back to `getColorName(hex)`. **Tests overall:** 20 `FilamentOverride.test.tsx` cases green; 12 `test_color_catalog_extras.py` integration cases green; combined PrintModal + FilamentOverride + FilamentMapping suite 79/79 green. **Same fix applies to printer-mode FilamentMapping (round 3):** the schedule modal's "Specific Printer" branch renders `FilamentMapping` instead of `FilamentOverride` and was reading the same raw fields (`item.type` + generic `getColorName(item.color)`) for the required-side row and the colour swatch tooltip — so a Charcoal slice opened against a specific printer still showed "Required: PLA - Black" while the model-mode branch already read "Bambu PLA Matte - Charcoal" against the same 3MF (caught when Sam's Specific-Printer screenshot still showed the old text after round 2 shipped). Extracted the three-query resolution machinery from `FilamentOverride.tsx` into a shared hook `useFilamentLabels` in `frontend/src/components/PrintModal/useFilamentLabels.ts` so the two panels can't drift on label content; `FilamentOverride` and `FilamentMapping` now both call `useFilamentLabels(filamentReqs?.filaments)` and read positional `{ resolvedName, colorLabel }` per slot. The hook also exports the `extractMaterialHint` helper so backend material-hint test parity is mechanical (one source of truth for "strip the leading brand token"). FilamentMapping's required-side type label now reads `{resolvedName}` instead of raw `{item.type}`, and the colour swatch tooltip reads `Required: {resolvedName} - {colorLabel}` instead of `Required: {item.type} - getColorName(item.color)`. New vitest case `renders sub-brand + material-disambiguated colour on the required side (#1718)` mirrors the FilamentOverride Charcoal scenario against FilamentMapping (msw stubs for builtin-filaments + by-material). Existing FTS dropdown-filter / force-color-match cases stay green. Hook itself gets direct unit coverage in a new `useFilamentLabels.test.tsx` (11 cases — extractMaterialHint corner cases, SKU resolution, cloud-over-builtin precedence, fallbacks, positional alignment across slots with same hex but different materials, and the `enabled: !!color` query gate). The earlier "case-insensitive on both inputs" backend test (in `test_color_catalog_extras.py`) is rewritten to actually seed an upper-case stored hex and query it with lower-case input — the original version only checked invalid-hex returns null, which is the wrong assertion for the test name. Combined PrintModal + FilamentOverride + FilamentMapping + useFilamentLabels + useFilamentMapping suite 144/144 green; eslint clean, build clean. **What this fix can NOT recover:** for hexes the catalog has no entry for (third-party filament manually loaded, etc.), the color label degrades to the existing HSL-bucket name from `getColorName(hex)` — still strictly better than blank, but Bambu's specific color names only live in the seeded catalog. Frontend + backend; no migration, no new i18n keys; ruff clean, eslint clean, frontend build clean, i18n parity unchanged.
### Removed
- **Slicer Bundle (.bbscfg) import (#1712, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Bundle import never delivered what users expected. BambuStudio's "Export Preset Bundle" only includes user-customised presets; system processes / filaments are deliberately excluded by BS. So a fresh-install user who only used stock processes (the common case) got back a bundle containing their printer + maybe four custom filaments + zero processes. Importing that bundle into Bambuddy and then opening the SliceModal flipped into bundle mode — which constrained the dropdowns to bundle contents only — and surfaced "no presets" for process, blocking slicing on STL (3MF still worked because the embedded process JSON bypasses the dropdown). The first round of #1712 (`d459b6ea`, 2026-05-XX) addressed cross-tier visibility / dedup / banner behaviour but didn't touch the bundle-mode dropdown trap. Investigating the second round made it clear the bundle import wasn't unlocking anything the existing tiers don't already cover — custom presets reach Bambuddy through Bambu Cloud sync, Orca Cloud sync, or Single Preset Import; standard presets come from the sidecar's `/profiles/bundled` route automatically — so bundle mode was a fourth code path delivering no unique value while gating users on a slot they couldn't populate. **What was removed.** Backend: `POST/GET/DELETE /slicer/bundles*` routes, `SliceRequest.bundle` field + `SliceBundleSpec` schema, the bundle-dispatch fork in `library.py::_run_slicer_with_fallback` (cross-class slice-all loop, normal slice branch, `_resolve_target_printer_model` short-circuit), the bundle-context query params on `GET /library/files/{id}/filament-requirements` and `GET /archives/{id}/filament-requirements`, the bundle-fingerprint key in `slice_preview.py`'s LRU cache (back to `(kind, source_id, plate_id, content_hash)`), `SlicerApiService.import_bundle/list_bundles/get_bundle/delete_bundle/slice_with_bundle`, the `BundleSummary` / `BundleNotFoundError` types. Frontend: `BundlePicker` + `BundleStringDropdown` components, `isBundleMode` state and every branch on it in `SliceModal.tsx`, `selectedBundleId` / `bundleProcessName` / `bundleFilamentNames` state, the bundle-mode auto-pick effect, the bundle dispatch shape in `buildSliceBody`, the `bundlesQuery` itself, `SlicerBundle` / `SliceBundleSpec` types, `listSlicerBundles` / `importSlicerBundle` / `deleteSlicerBundle` API methods. The bundle-derived path in `buildCompatibilityIndex` is also gone — the function now only takes the printer-model registry and returns `{bambuModelByShortCode}`. `presetCompatibility` keeps its two remaining paths: the slicer's own `compatible_printers` list on local-imported presets (authoritative when set) and the `@BBL ` name-based fallback against the printer-model registry. Tests: `TestBundleRoutes` / `TestBundleClientMethods` / `TestSliceWithBundle` / `TestBundleAwarePreview` / `TestBundleDispatchShape` classes deleted across `test_slicer_presets.py` / `test_slicer_api.py` / `test_slice_preview.py` / `test_slice_request_schema.py` / `test_library_slice_api.py`; the SliceModal's "Bundle tier" describe block and the bundle-only assertions in `slicerPrinterMatch.test.ts` deleted; `SlicerBundlesPanel.test.tsx` removed; `TestNozzleClassGuard` simplified (no more bundle vs preset request distinction). **What replaces the Settings panel.** `SlicerBundlesPanel` is kept under the same name and slot in `SettingsPage` but now renders a static notice (title: "Slicer Bundles (removed)") explaining the removal and pointing users at Single Preset Import / Bambu Cloud / Orca Cloud, with the slicer sidecar covering stock presets automatically. The notice is permanent and can be removed in a future cleanup. **i18n.** `settings.slicerBundles.*` block replaced with `settings.slicerBundlesRemoved.{title,description,alternatives}` translated across all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW) per `feedback_translate_dont_fallback`. `slice.bundle` / `slice.bundleNone` / `slice.bundleAllRequired` keys removed across all locales. Parity check 5106 leaves × 11 locales green. **Migration.** Hard cutover, no automatic preset migration. Users who previously imported bundles will see them disappear from Settings → Slicer Bundles after this drops; their printer preset still lives on the sidecar bundle store but is no longer surfaced. Standard presets from the sidecar's BBL tree cover stock slicing; users who need their customs re-upload them via Single Preset Import or sync via Bambu Cloud / Orca Cloud. **Why this resolves #1712.** shaddowlink's failing path was: import bundle for H2D → bundle has 0 processes (BS-side limitation) → SliceModal flips into bundle mode → process dropdown empty → can't slice STL. Post-removal: same import isn't possible, but the cross-tier preset picker shows H2D processes from the sidecar's standard tier (which always had them — bundle mode was the thing hiding them), filtered by `@BBL H2D` compatibility. STL slicing works without any user action. **Tests:** full backend suite 5907/5907 green; ruff clean; frontend ESLint clean; `npm run build` clean; vitest 158 files / 2118 tests green; i18n parity 5106 leaves × 11 locales green.
## [0.2.4.6] - 2026-06-09
### Added
- **Archives page banner: reactive install-step-4 nudge for the slicer-side setting** — Companion to the new `external_storage` diagnostic check. The diagnostic catches the printer-side variant of "Store sent files on external storage" via `home_flag` bit 11. The slicer-side variant on older BambuStudio / OrcaSlicer never reaches the printer, so the diagnostic passes even when the option is off in the slicer. The deterministic symptom is the archiver creating a row with `extra_data.no_3mf_available=True` (`main.py:2770`) — that's the signal this banner watches. New backend endpoint `GET /archives/no-3mf-warning` returns `{has_fallback: bool}` — true iff any archive in the last 30 days has the flag set AND isn't soft-deleted. The 30-day window prevents old never-fixed installs from showing the banner forever; the soft-delete filter respects the user clearing the evidence. Frontend banner sits at the top of the Archives page (amber, dismissible) — "Some recent prints couldn't be archived with thumbnails…" + link to install step 4 in the wiki. Dismissal is one-shot via `localStorage` key `archiveNo3MFWarningDismissed` (matches the existing `Layout.tsx` update-banner pattern but persistent across sessions, since "you've been told" should outlive a browser restart). React-Query is `enabled: !dismissed` so the endpoint isn't polled after dismissal. 5 backend integration tests (`TestNo3MFWarning`) cover: recent fallback returns true, no archives returns false, archives without the flag returns false, >30-day-old fallbacks ignored, soft-deleted fallbacks ignored. i18n: 4 new keys (`title`, `body`, `docsLink`, `dismissLabel`) under `archives.no3mfBanner` translated to all 11 locales — no English fallbacks.
- **Connection diagnostic now verifies install step 4 ("Store sent files on external storage")** — Many users miss this setting when adding their first printer; without it BambuStudio / OrcaSlicer never leave a `.gcode.3mf` on the printer's SD card, every archived print falls back to no-thumbnail / no-metadata, and the cause is invisible until the user notices the archive is empty. **The trap with detecting this**: on newer firmware (P2S 01.02 / Bambu Studio 2.6+) the toggle moved onto the printer itself and is pushed on MQTT `home_flag` bit 11 (Bambuddy already parses this into `state.store_to_sdcard`). On older versions it's a purely slicer-side preference invisible to the printer. An FTP upload-probe approach was tried first — it always passed regardless of the slicer toggle because the `/cache` directory is always writable from Bambuddy's perspective; the slicer toggle only controls what BambuStudio chooses to do, not what the printer accepts from other clients. Confirmed empirically against an X1C + H2D with the slicer option toggled off (probe still succeeded, `home_flag` bit 11 stayed True). **Fix**: new `external_storage` check reads `state.store_to_sdcard` directly. Pass when the printer reports the bit on, fail when off, skip when no live MQTT state or the field has never been populated (older firmware that doesn't push `home_flag`). Localised fix-text points at install step 4 with both the printer-side and slicer-side variants spelled out; the `skip` text explicitly calls out the older-slicer limitation so users on that path know to verify manually. Slot in the check list sits between `port_ftps` and `mqtt_auth`. 5 new tests (`TestExternalStorageCheck`) cover pass-on-true, fail-on-false, skip-on-disconnect, skip-on-pre-add (no state), skip-on-missing-field. The reactive symptom-side detection — a one-time banner the first time the archiver records `extra_data.no_3mf_available=True` after a slicer-initiated print — is planned as a separate follow-up to cover the slicer-only setting case. Wiki updated on the System page (`features/system-info.md`) and the Troubleshooting page (`reference/troubleshooting.md`). i18n: 4 new keys (title, pass, fail, skip) localised to all 11 locales (de, en, es, fr, it, ja, ko, pt-BR, tr, zh-CN, zh-TW) — no English fallbacks.
- **"Open in Slicer" desktop target is now configurable separately from the API sidecar slicer (#1329, reported by @hasmar04)** — Reporter wanted to slice via the Bambu Studio sidecar but open files locally in OrcaSlicer; the existing `preferred_slicer` setting drove both, so picking one forced the other. The slicer-URI flow on Workflow → Slicer literally swapped the BambuStudio handler for the OrcaSlicer one whenever the user switched the API choice. **Fix: new `open_in_slicer` setting** (`'bambu_studio' | 'orcaslicer' | null`) drives only the desktop "Open in Slicer" URI handoff; the in-app SliceModal + sidecar URL routing in `library.py`, `archives.py`, `slicer_presets.py` continue to use `preferred_slicer` exactly as before. Default is `null` — the frontend falls back to `preferred_slicer` so existing installs behave identically until a user changes it (no migration, no churn). **Storage** lives in the existing `app_settings` key/value table; the PUT path serialises a Python None as the literal string `"None"`, and the GET path normalises it back via a new branch in `_build_settings_response` matching the existing `default_printer_id` convention — without that normalization the frontend can't tell "explicit override absent" from "explicit override set to a bogus value". **Frontend**: Settings → Slicer card relabels the existing dropdown's description ("Slicer used for in-app slicing via the API sidecar"), adds a new "Open in Slicer" dropdown below it with three options — "Same as API slicer" (the inherit-from-preferred default), "Bambu Studio", "OrcaSlicer". `ArchivesPage` (5 `openInSlicerWithToken` call sites), `MakerworldPage` (the URI handoff branch when `useSlicerApi=false`), and `ModelViewerModal` (4 `openInSlicer(...)` call sites) all switched from reading `settings?.preferred_slicer` to `settings?.open_in_slicer ?? settings?.preferred_slicer`. MakerworldPage's "Slice in {{slicer}}" button label additionally branches on `useSlicerApi`: when on, the label reflects the API slicer; when off, the desktop slicer — so the button text always matches what the button actually does. The OrcaSlicer "known CLI bugs" warning stays attached to the API dropdown (where it belongs — it's about the sidecar's CLI). **i18n**: 3 new keys in all 11 locales (de/en/es/fr/it/ja/ko/pt-BR/tr/zh-CN/zh-TW) — `settings.openInSlicerLabel`, `settings.openInSlicerInherit`, `settings.openInSlicerDescription` — plus an updated `settings.preferredSlicerDescription` everywhere (the old wording "Choose which slicer application to open files with" became wrong once the field stopped driving the desktop handoff). No English fallbacks per the project's hard rule. **Tests**: 3 new in `TestOpenInSlicerOverride` pin the contract — default is null, override persists across GET, explicit reset to null round-trips correctly without leaving the `"None"` string leak. Full backend suite green (5798/5798); frontend ESLint + build clean; vitest on SettingsPage + MakerworldPage 48/48 green; i18n parity 5095 leaves × 11 locales green.
- **Queue items + Print modal now show the build plate type, per-plate accurate (#1281, reported by @CMW-ISS)** — Reporter on a multi-printer farm with 40+-plate runs needed to walk to the printer with the right physical plate; the archive card had recently grown a bed-type badge, but the queue and the scheduling modal didn't. They were having to open the source 3MF in the slicer to look up which plate each queued / scheduled job needs. **Backend**: new `extract_bed_type_from_3mf(file_path, plate_id)` helper in `utils/threemf_tools.py`, alongside the existing `extract_filament_usage_from_3mf` shape — reads `Metadata/slice_info.config`, finds the `` with the matching `index`, returns its `curr_bed_type`. When `plate_id` is None it returns the first plate's value (matches the archive-level capture convention). `PrintQueueItemResponse` gains a `bed_type: str | None` field; `_enrich_response` populates it from `archive.bed_type` / `library_file.file_metadata["bed_type"]` as the file-level default, then overrides per-plate via the new helper when `item.plate_id` is set. This matters because `archive.bed_type` is captured at ingest as the FIRST plate's value only (see `services/archive.py:235`) — a 40-plate 3MF mixing PEI + Engineering returns "PEI" for every plate at the archive level, even though the user's plate 17 actually needs Engineering. The per-plate override re-reads the 3MF and returns the truth. **`/archives/{id}/plates`** (and the library-file equivalent) now include `bed_type` in each plate object so the PrintModal's plate selector can render the badge inline. **Frontend**: queue card meta row gains a bed badge after filament weight — uses the existing `getBedTypeInfo(bed_type)` helper from `utils/bedType.ts` (the same one the archive card uses, so all 11 canonical bed labels + icons are covered including the BambuStudio / OrcaSlicer spelling drift). PrintModal's per-plate `PlateSelector` shows the bed badge under each plate's filament line; the modal header carries a bed badge for the selected (or sole) plate, surfaced before the user hits Schedule. `PlateInfo` + `PlateMetadata` types both get an optional `bed_type` field. No new i18n keys needed — `getBedTypeInfo` returns the canonical English plate name as the human label, matching the archive card's existing convention. **Tests**: 8 new unit cases in `test_threemf_tools.py::TestExtractBedTypeFrom3mf` pin the helper (single-plate, multi-plate per-plate, no-plate-id defaults to first, unknown-plate-id → None, plate-without-bed-type → None (no fall-through to another plate's value), missing slice_info, invalid file, whitespace trim). Full backend suite green (3848/3848); frontend build clean; ESLint clean; vitest on touched pages 81/81; i18n parity 5092 leaves × 11 locales green.
- **Print Log page: per-row failure-cause classification (#1687 part 4, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Reporter clarified after part 1 shipped that what he actually wanted for point 2 was failure-cause grouping on the *log* (spaghetti, jam, bed-adhesion, etc.), not the archive tags I'd pointed him at. Archive `tags` describe the model (home decor, toys); the log row needs to describe what went wrong on a single print event. Different surface, different lifetime. **What was already there:** `PrintLogEntry.failure_reason: String(100)` already exists, gets *mirrored* from `archive.failure_reason` when the user edits the archive (see `archives.py:1421` for the mirror that ships with #1444), and the Failure Analysis widget already groups by it. So the storage and the aggregation were both done — the only gaps were (a) the Print Log table couldn't *render* the value because the GET serialiser silently dropped it from `PrintLogEntrySchema`, and (b) **orphan log entries** (failures with no archive — dispatch errors, aborts before archive creation, manual entries) had no edit path at all because the Archive Edit modal can't reach them. **Fix:** four pieces. (1) `print_log.py` GET endpoint now includes `failure_reason` (and `archive_id`, `created_by_id`) in the serialised response — pre-fix it was silently None in every response even when the column was populated. Regression guard added. (2) New `PATCH /print-log/{entry_id}` endpoint accepting `{failure_reason, status}`, gated on `require_ownership_permission(ARCHIVES_UPDATE_ALL, ARCHIVES_UPDATE_OWN)` — same ownership shape as the per-row delete that already shipped. Backend validates `failure_reason` against the same canonical vocabulary the Archive Edit modal uses (11 enumerated keys + empty-string-clears + the `other` catch-all); unknown values return 400 rather than getting stored as raw garbage (the i18n layer renders the value as a key, so an unrecognised one would surface as a literal string in the UI). Status validated against the 5-value `{completed, failed, stopped, cancelled, skipped}` set. Empty-string `failure_reason` stores back as NULL so the column's `nullable=True` intent is preserved end-to-end. (3) `FAILURE_REASON_KEYS` constant moved to an export from `EditArchiveModal.tsx` so the new editor reuses the exact same vocabulary as the archive editor — backend and frontend stay in lockstep. (4) Frontend: pencil icon added beside the existing trash icon on every Print Log row, gated on `archives:update_own`/`archives:update_all`. Click opens a compact two-field modal (status + failure reason dropdowns). Save invalidates both `print-log` and `archives-stats` query keys so the Failure Analysis widget reflects the re-classification on the same response cycle. Failure reason is also rendered as a sub-label under the status badge in the table, mirroring the per-archive `PrintLogTable.tsx` convention so the two views agree. **i18n:** 10 new keys (`editEntryTitle`, `editEntryDescription`, `entryUpdated`, `entryUpdateFailed`, `archives.permission.noEdit`, plus a 5-key `statuses` block) translated across all 11 locales — no English fallbacks per `feedback_translate_dont_fallback`. **Tests:** 8 new backend integration cases — GET surfaces `failure_reason` (regression guard for the silent-drop bug), PATCH sets / clears / rejects unknown failure_reason, PATCH updates status, PATCH rejects unknown status, PATCH returns 404 on missing ID, PATCH works on **orphan entries** (archive_id IS NULL) — the actual reason this endpoint exists. Full backend suite 5843/5843 green; ruff clean. Frontend vitest 2108/2108 green; ESLint + build clean. i18n parity check 5110 leaves × 11 locales green.
- **Print Log page: per-row delete (#1687 part 1, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Reporter noted that the existing "Also remove this print from Quick Stats" toggle on archive delete is one-shot: if you tick "keep stats" at delete time, there was no later way to drop the row from /stats; and rows that aren't tied to an archive (errors, aborts, manual entries) had no delete affordance at all. **Fix:** every row in the Archives → Print Log table now has a trash icon next to the filament cell, gated on `archives:delete_own` (own rows) or `archives:delete_all` (any row), matching the archive-delete permission shape. Click → confirm modal → row is gone, and because /archives/stats aggregates over `PrintLogEntry` the filament / time / cost contribution drops out of Quick Stats in the same response cycle. The matching archive (if any) is untouched — the log row is a sibling, not a child. **Backend:** new `DELETE /print-log/{entry_id}` mirrors `delete_archive`'s ownership flow via `require_ownership_permission(ARCHIVES_DELETE_ALL, ARCHIVES_DELETE_OWN)`; owners can drop their own rows, admins can drop any row, missing IDs return 404 rather than 200-silently. **Frontend:** new `deletePrintLogEntry` API helper, per-row mutation that invalidates both `print-log` and `archives-stats` query keys so the totals re-render without a manual refresh. **i18n:** 4 new keys (`deleteEntryTitle`, `deleteEntryConfirm`, `entryDeleted`, `entryDeleteFailed`) translated across all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW). **Tests:** 3 backend integration cases — delete drops the row from /stats while keeping the linked archive listed, missing ID returns 404, delete-one does not touch siblings (regression guard against an accidental `delete(PrintLogEntry)` without a `where`). Frontend ArchivesPage / PrintLogModal vitests stay green (31 / 31). i18n parity green (5099 leaves × 11 locales). Issue #1687 also asks for per-row tagging (already covered by `EditArchiveModal`'s tags field) and per-row filament-usage-history edits (deferred — see the issue thread for the reasoning).
- **Inventory page now supports native CSV import / export (#1576, PR #1659 by @samedyuksel)** — Bulk-add spools without manually clicking through the form, and back up / migrate the local inventory in a single round-trip. Export downloads `bambuddy-spools-YYYY-MM-DD.csv` (header + one row per active spool); Import shows a preview table that classifies each row as valid / error / skipped before anything hits the database, then a confirm click persists only the valid rows in one transaction (invalid rows are skipped, the user fixes them and re-uploads). Local inventory only — in Spoolman mode the buttons render disabled with a tooltip pointing at Spoolman's own CSV import/export, since the Spoolman backend has its own data store. **Schema**: fixed 18 columns, case- and whitespace-tolerant headers, includes `weight_used`, `last_used`, and the SpoolCreate fields `storage_location` / `category` / `low_stock_threshold_pct` so the round-trip preserves the per-spool location data from #1291. `remaining` is a derived, export-only column (`label_weight - weight_used`, clamped at 0) — it's written for human readability and ignored on import (weight_used is the source of truth, accepting both would let them contradict). **Colour resolution**: explicit `rgba` wins, otherwise `brand + color_name` resolves against the Color Catalog (case-insensitive, single in-memory pass — no N+1); a catalog entry with `material = NULL` is treated as the project's "matches any material" convention so a generic match counts as exact rather than firing the cross-material warning. Validation reuses `SpoolCreate` so every constraint that already protects manual adds (`weight_used >= 0`, `weight_used <= label_weight`, `low_stock_threshold_pct` range, etc.) protects bulk imports too. **Hardening**: 5 MB upload cap with a structured `csv_import_too_large` 413 response — Bambuddy doesn't have a global HTTP-level cap so the check lives on the route, and the implementation is a bounded 64 KB chunked read that bails the moment the accumulated body crosses the cap (file.size is `None` for chunked uploads so the loop is what actually prevents the OOM, not the pre-check). Spreadsheet formula-injection guard: every exported cell starting with `=` / `+` / `-` / `@` / tab / CR is prefixed with a single quote on export, and the inverse strip on import keeps the round-trip lossless instead of accumulating quotes on every cycle. Soft-warn surface in the preview: a `duplicate_of_existing` flag fires when an active spool with the same material + brand + color_name exists (single SELECT, no N+1) so a double-click or re-upload of the same CSV doesn't silently duplicate the inventory — the row still imports (Spool has no unique constraint, by design), but the preview renders a Copy icon + tooltip so the user knows. **Frontend**: new `SpoolCsvImportModal` (file pick → preview table with per-row status / colour swatch / warnings → confirm imports valid rows) wired to Import + Export buttons on the inventory header; swatch rendering uses the existing `getSwatchStyle` helper so alpha=00 shows the checkerboard underlay instead of rendering as solid black, matching the rest of the inventory surface. **i18n**: new `inventory.csv` namespace with full translations in all 11 locales (de/en/es/fr/it/ja/ko/pt-BR/tr/zh-CN/zh-TW). **Tests**: 25 backend integration cases pin every behaviour — export shape, import dry-run vs real, color resolution (catalog hit, explicit rgba wins, cross-material flagged, exact-material match, generic-material match not flagged), 5 MB rejection, weight_used bounds, formula-injection round-trip without quote accumulation, dated filename, extra-column round-trip, duplicate-warn flag. Plus 3 frontend modal tests. Full backend suite + ruff + ESLint + frontend build + i18n parity (5092 leaves × 11 locales) green. **Companion docs**: wiki PR maziggy/bambuddy-wiki#41 documents the schema, behaviour, and the Spoolman-mode disabled-with-tooltip semantics.
- **Add Printer: scan a custom subnet for printers behind a router on a different L3 segment (#1564, reported by @MartinNYHC, root-caused by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Reporter on a flat LAN couldn't add a printer that lived in a different subnet (`Bambuddy 192.168.1.0/24` ↔ `printer 10.1.1.0/24`). SSDP multicast (`239.255.255.250:2021`) doesn't traverse routers, so the existing "Discover Printers on Network" pass found nothing; Docker mode had a CIDR text input but only as a fallback when zero interface subnets were detected, and native mode had no subnet field at all. The discovery socket has always bound `INADDR_ANY` so this was never an interface-bind issue — only a routing-boundary one. The fix surfaces an always-visible subnet picker in `AddPrinterModal`: the detected interface subnets stay as the dropdown options, plus a new "Custom subnet..." sentinel reveals a CIDR text input the user can type any reachable subnet into (`10.1.1.0/24`, a VLAN, a Tailscale subnet route, etc.). When custom is picked, the discovery routes through `POST /discovery/scan` with the typed CIDR instead of `POST /discovery/start` — SSDP would no-op against a foreign subnet anyway, so this is the only behaviour that can succeed. The Scan-button label and the scanning / no-printers-found messages all key off the `(isDocker || useCustomSubnet)` predicate so the wording stays "Scan Subnet…" / "Scanning subnet…" — the user sees one consistent verbal model whether they're on Docker or just picked Custom. Last custom CIDR is persisted to `localStorage` under `bambuddy.discovery.customSubnet` and restored on next modal open, so a user who maintains a VLAN setup doesn't retype `10.1.1.0/24` every time. **Backend changes: none.** `SubnetScanner.scan_subnet()` already accepts any CIDR, already caps the scan at /22 (1024 hosts) with batch-50 concurrency, and the route `/discovery/scan` already takes user-supplied input — the existing plumbing was complete. **i18n**: 3 new keys (`customSubnetOption`, `customSubnetLabel`, `customSubnetNote`) translated in all 10 non-English locales (de/es/fr/it/ja/ko/pt-BR/tr/zh-CN/zh-TW), no English fallbacks per the project's hard rule. The note text spells out the routing-boundary requirement: "The FTP (990) and MQTT (8883) ports must be reachable across the routing boundary" — a user who can pick a subnet but whose firewall blocks 8883 will at least see why the scan came up empty. **Tests**: 3 new in `PrintersPageDiscoveryCustomSubnet.test.tsx` — picker renders on native installs (was Docker-gated before), picking Custom + entering a CIDR routes through `discoveryApi.startSubnetScan` not `startDiscovery` and persists the choice via `localStorage.setItem`, picker default (the detected interface subnet) still triggers SSDP via `startDiscovery`. `AddPrinterModal` exported from `PrintersPage.tsx` so the tests can mount it directly without round-tripping through the full page (same shape as `ProjectModal` for the #1642 tests).
- **Orca Cloud profile sync — end-to-end integration with the slicer + SpoolBuddy surfaces (OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer#14028 filed for upstream allowlist broadening)** — Bambuddy now reads, lists, and slices with profiles from your Orca Cloud account alongside the existing Bambu Cloud integration. OrcaSlicer 2.4.0-alpha shipped its own cloud (Supabase-backed at `auth.orcaslicer.com` / `api.orcaslicer.com`); this integrates with it using the in-source publishable client key, a standard PKCE handshake, and the `/api/v1/sync/pull` profile-sync endpoint. **Four sign-in providers**: Google, Apple, GitHub (paste-flow PKCE) and email+password (direct grant — Orca's web sign-in offers it even though their desktop SDK refuses); UI defaults to password with the three OAuth options listed below. **UX shape**: the Cloud Profiles tab is now two — "Bambu Cloud" (existing, unchanged) and "Orca Cloud" (new); the paste flow's "page will fail to load — that's expected" instruction is rendered as a prominent amber callout so the connection-refused page isn't mistaken for a Bambuddy error. The Orca Cloud tab renders the same rich profile-browser layout as Bambu Cloud (search + 5 filter dropdowns + 3-column grouped grid + click-to-detail) via a parallel `OrcaCloudProfilesView` component. We chose paste-flow rather than a clean OAuth callback because Orca's Supabase project only honors localhost in its `redirect_to` allowlist. **Slicer integration**: the unified-presets endpoint surfaces Orca Cloud as a 4th tier above Bambu Cloud > local > standard; `_dedupe_by_name` and the SliceModal dropdowns both updated to walk all 4 tiers. The dedicated `_fetch_orca_cloud_presets` extracts `filament_type` and `default_filament_colour` inline from each profile's content (cheap because `/sync/pull` returns full content per profile — no rate-limit dance like Bambu Cloud's per-setting fetch), so multi-color pre-pick scoring works against Orca presets too. A separate `CloudStatusBanner` instance shows Orca Cloud's auth status independently of Bambu's. **AMS slot integration**: `ConfigureAmsSlotModal` accepts `orca_cloud` as a new preset source (prefixed `orca_` to match the existing `local_*` / `builtin_*` convention), gracefully tolerating raw UUIDs from historical saves; Orca presets are treated like local imports for `tray_info_idx` derivation (no Bambu setting_id, generic filament-ID map by parsed material). Slot mapping persisted with `preset_source='orca_cloud'`. **SpoolBuddy integration**: `SpoolFormModal` and `SpoolBuddyWriteTagPage` fetch Bambu + Orca filaments in parallel via `Promise.allSettled` and concat; `ConfigureAmsSlotModal` opens from `SpoolBuddyAmsPage`'s Configure flow with Orca presets surfaced first. **Storage**: 8 new columns on `users` (5 persistent + 3 transient PKCE state with 10-min TTL), dialect-branched DATETIME / TIMESTAMP, verified on SQLite and Postgres. Auth-disabled mode falls back to global Settings table. **Refresh rotation**: Supabase issues single-use refresh tokens; service refreshes just-in-time (<5min leeway) and persists the new pair BEFORE the downstream call so a mid-flight crash doesn't strand the user. **Cloudflare**: `api.orcaslicer.com` is behind a UA-only gate; `Bambuddy/` clears it (no TLS-fingerprint games). Per the [[bambu-compliance-outreach]] posture we identify honestly. **Preset resolver**: `PresetRef.source` extended to `'orca_cloud' | 'cloud' | 'local' | 'standard'`; `_resolve_orca_cloud` lists, filters, and forwards profile content. **Permissions**: new explicit `orca_cloud:auth` flag (per [[feedback_specific_scopes_over_folding]]); folded into the existing `can_access_cloud` API-key scope (same trust dimension as Bambu Cloud — extending automatically rather than requiring a per-key opt-in). The orca_cloud router carries the same `_cloud_api_key_gate` + `cloud_caller()` deps as the Bambu Cloud router — a copy-paste miss caught only when the SpoolBuddy kiosk's API-keyed requests came back with empty preset lists from `/orca-cloud/profiles` because the plain `require_permission_if_auth_enabled` dep returns `None` for API-key callers, falling through to the global Settings table that doesn't carry per-user Orca tokens. **Load-bearing gotchas surfaced and fixed during the build** (captured in the `orca-cloud-integration` project-memory file so future contributors don't re-discover them): (a) Supabase silently falls back to the project Site URL when a client passes its own `state` to `/auth/v1/authorize` — overrides GoTrue's internal redirect_to tracking, browser lands at cloud.orcaslicer.com instead of localhost; we don't send state, PKCE alone gives CSRF protection. (b) `cursor=0` returns `410 cursor_too_old`; bare `/sync/pull` with no cursor parameter is the first-sync bootstrap, same as Orca's own client. (c) The `/api/v1/sync/profiles` constant is declared in source but isn't deployed — returns 404. (d) Orca's `content.type` vocabulary is `printer` / `print` / `filament`, not the BambuStudio `machine` / `process` / `filament` triplet you'd guess from the wider source; without alias mapping every printer + process profile gets silently dropped (caught against a real account showing 54 filament + 0 process + 0 printer instead of 54+18+3). (e) Naive datetimes from Postgres `TIMESTAMP WITHOUT TIME ZONE` columns get `.astimezone()` interpreted as local time on the read path, shifting freshly-stored pending PKCE state by the host's TZ offset and instant-firing the 10-min TTL — `_as_utc` normalises on load. **Tests**: 32 unit tests on the OrcaCloudService (PKCE / token exchange / single-use refresh rotation / rejected-refresh-clears-tokens / JIT refresh / profile walk + content.type mapping); 6 preset-resolver orca tier tests (permission gate, content unwrap, auth error 401, not-found 400, dispatcher routing); 6 new orca-fetch tests in test_slicer_presets.py paralleling the Bambu Cloud fetcher (status vocabulary, permission shortcut, cache hit, type vocabulary); existing SliceModal vitest updated for the 4-tier shape; 6 frontend OrcaCloudView tests (all four sign-in providers + paste flow + connected + disconnect). **i18n**: ~35 new keys translated in all 10 non-English locales (de/es/fr/it/ja/ko/pt-BR/tr/zh-CN/zh-TW); brand-name "Bambu Cloud" / "Orca Cloud" cognates allowlisted in the parity check; existing `tier.cloud` relabelled from "Cloud" to "Bambu Cloud" everywhere it was previously generic. **Service worker**: bumped to v29/v28 with a forced reload-on-activate so the SpoolBuddy kiosk (Pi + Chromium + locked into kiosk mode, no devtools, no way to navigate or refresh) picks up the new bundle on a single restart instead of needing two. **Verified**: backend ruff clean; full pytest pass at 5648 across the suite (-n 30 in 84s); frontend eslint + build + vitest 2051 clean; i18n parity green at 5054 leaves × 11 locales.
- **VP MQTT bridge surfaces why `net.info[].ip` rewrite didn't arm (#1429 defensive)** — `MQTTBridge._refresh_ip_encoding` had 4 silent early-return paths (`target_client is None`, `printer client has no ip_address yet`, `no host interface shares a subnet with printer IP X and bind_address is 0.0.0.0/empty`, `invalid IPv4 …`). When the rewrite silently no-op'd on a user's setup, the only signal was the absence of the `MQTT bridge IP encoding armed` INFO line — diagnosing which path was firing meant grepping the source. Each path now emits one `MQTT bridge IP encoding NOT armed: ` INFO line; the message names the actual failure (target IP, the missing-interface case, etc.). Throttled via a `_not_armed_reason` dedup field so an idle unarmed bridge doesn't spam one line per 30s refresh tick — only state changes log. Cleared on successful arm so a regression (e.g. printer client unbinds) re-emits the diagnostic. 5 new tests in `TestNotArmedDiagnosticLogging` pin each path's specific reason text, the once-per-state-change throttle, and the arm-clears-dedup behaviour. **Not a fix for #1429 itself** — the bridge logic is unchanged; this just turns the silent failure into visible signal so the next "fix didn't work for me" report can be triaged in one round-trip instead of multiple.
- **Connection diagnostic now verifies the printer is actually publishing on its report topic (#1622)** — The existing checks proved TCP + TLS + auth + SUBSCRIBE, but a printer with a wrong-cased serial — or one that simply isn't publishing for some other reason — would still pass `mqtt_auth` because the broker accepts the subscription regardless. The user-visible symptom in that case was "AMS / K-profiles / custom filaments missing on the slicer side": the VP bridge had nothing cached to mirror because no reports ever arrived. Bambuddy already logged `Connected and subscribed, but the printer has sent zero status reports. The most common cause is a wrong or mis-cased serial number…` at `bambu_mqtt.py:498` when this happened, but the only way to see it was to grep container logs. New `printer_publishing` check turns that warning into a structured diagnostic result. Pass = the bridge has seen at least one report since the latest (re)connect; fail = zero reports across the wait window with a fix-text pointing at the case-sensitive serial. The check exposes `report_messages_since_connect` as a public property on `BambuMQTTClient` so the diagnostic doesn't reach into private state. **Bounded wait with countdown UX**: the bridge resets the counter to 0 on every (re)connect, so a fresh reconnect would otherwise be reported as fail before the printer's first idle push lands. The on-demand UI check polls for up to 10s (`PUBLISH_WAIT_DEFAULT`) at 0.5s intervals and exits the moment a message arrives — typical wall-clock is 1-2s, not the full 10. The check returns `max_wait_seconds` in its `params` so the frontend can render a countdown next to the spinner instead of looking hung. The Connection Diagnostic modal (`ConnectionDiagnostic.tsx`) now displays an elapsed-seconds counter (`Running diagnostic... (3s)`) plus the `waitingForReportHint` line (`Listening for the printer to publish a status report — this can take up to 10 seconds.`) during the pending state for the existing-printer flow. `PUBLISH_WAIT_DEFAULT_SECONDS = 10` is pinned in the frontend to match the backend constant; the 2 new i18n keys ship in all 11 locales. The support-package gathering path stays fast: it calls `run_connection_diagnostic` without `wait_for_publish_seconds`, getting an instant pass/fail with no `max_wait_seconds` exposed. 6 new tests covering pass-on-reports-seen, fail-on-zero-after-wait, skip-on-disconnect, skip-on-missing-client, instant-no-wait-path, plus updated all-healthy + disconnected-state assertions to include the new check. i18n strings (`title` / `pass` / `fail` / `skip`) shipped in all 10 non-English locales with real translations — no English fallbacks per the project's hard rule. 5011 leaves × 11 locales in parity. **Why this directly closes #1622**: the reporter's bridge to printers 2 + 4 (P1S + A1 Mini real targets) repeatedly hit keep-alive timeouts and force-reconnected; on every reconnect the printer published nothing in the stale window, leaving the VP cached state empty. The slicer Device tab pulls AMS / cali_id / custom filaments from cached state — empty cache = empty dropdown. The reporter's H2D bridge stayed healthy throughout and its slicer Device tab populated correctly. The in-app Connection Diagnostic had passed (`port_mqtt: pass`, `mqtt_auth: pass`) because it didn't observe publish behaviour. The new check catches this class of failure on the user's first try.
### Changed
- **Slicer sidecar now ships as pre-built images on GHCR + Docker Hub — install works on QNAP / Synology / Container Station (#1657, reported by @d3nn3s08)** — Reporter on QNAP QTS 5.2.9 hit three install failures in sequence: the official `slicer-api/docker-compose.yml` used `build: { context: https://github.com/maziggy/orca-slicer-api.git#bambuddy/profile-resolver }`, which requires `git` in the Docker BuildKit worker — Container Station and Synology DSM don't ship git there, so the build fails immediately with `exec: "git": executable file not found`. Manual ZIP-as-local-context workaround tripped a QNAP filesystem quirk in the systemd post-install (`Failed to copy permissions from /etc/group`). Fallback to `ghcr.io/afkfelix/orca-slicer-api:latest-orca2.3.0` ran but couldn't slice — that image lacks the `bambuddy/profile-resolver` patches (the `inherits:` chain resolver, the `from: "User"` → `"system"` rewrite, the `# ` clone-prefix strip, and the sentinel-value strip), so `/profiles/bundled` returned 400 and `/slice` returned `Invalid parameter value(s) included in the 3mf file`. **The fix removes the build-from-source requirement entirely.** Both sidecar images are now built locally on Martin's box and pushed to two registries (`ghcr.io/maziggy/orca-slicer-api`, `docker.io/maziggy/orca-slicer-api`, and the same two for `bambu-studio-api`) via a new `docker-publish-sidecars.sh` helper in the `orca-slicer-api` repo; the stable Bambuddy publish script auto-invokes it after each release, and the beta script too. Daily-beta opts in only via `--include-sidecars` (slicer rebuilds are expensive). The helper has hard safety guards: aborts unless the orca-slicer-api repo is on `bambuddy/profile-resolver` AND the working tree is clean, and never executes `git checkout` / `pull` / `fetch` / `reset` itself. `slicer-api/docker-compose.yml` switches from `build:` to `image: ghcr.io/maziggy/orca-slicer-api:${SIDECAR_TAG:-latest}`. New `SIDECAR_TAG` env var in `.env.example` defaults to `latest`; set `SIDECAR_TAG=bambuddy-X.Y.Z` to pin to the sidecar image that shipped with a specific Bambuddy release. **Scope limitation**: both images are `linux/amd64` only. The OrcaSlicer multi-arch path stays on hold pending an upstream extraction fix — the kldzj/orca-slicer-arm64 AppImage's `--appimage-extract` silently fails under QEMU build emulation; the Dockerfile's `;`-chained RUN block masked the failure until the final `COPY squashfs-root` tripped. ARM64 hosts (Pi 4/5, Apple Silicon Linux) should run the sidecar on a separate x86_64 box and point Bambuddy at it via the **Sidecar URL** field — the sidecar doesn't need to live next to Bambuddy. **Docs aligned**: `slicer-api/README.md` and `wiki/features/slicer-api.md` rewrote the Quick start, Updating, and Sidecar source sections — `docker compose up -d` now pulls instead of building, and `docker compose pull && docker compose up -d` is the new update path (no `--no-cache --pull` dance because Compose only ever sees `image:` references). The build-from-source path stays documented as an advanced option under "Building from source (advanced)" for forks / dev work.
- **VP access code is now auto-derived from the target printer in non-proxy modes (Discord report)** — A user on Discord set up a Queue-mode VP with a different access code than the real target printer and couldn't get the slicer to connect, even after the cert-trust path was sorted. Root cause: the live target-printer mirror that landed earlier in the 0.2.5 cycle forwards the slicer's MQTT/RTSPS auth bytes through to the real printer — the slicer holds **one** code in its profile (the one it bound the VP with), and that code has to pass two checks (VP listener, then real printer). If the codes diverge the bridge silently fails at the second hop and the slicer abandons the connection (e.g. opens 8883, FINs before sending a ClientHello). The wiki *did* document a code-match requirement but framed it as a camera-only concern (`MQTT and FTP work either way; only the camera path needs the match`) — wrong, all bridged protocols inherit. **The fix removes the foot-gun rather than re-document it.** When a target printer is selected on a non-proxy VP (Archive / Review / Queue), the access-code field in the VP card switches to a read-only display showing the target's code with an Eye-toggle reveal, and the backend auto-inherits the value on every `create` / `update` (any explicit `access_code` submitted alongside a target is silently overridden — belt-and-braces for non-UI clients). When no target is set, the field stays editable as before. The same `inheritsAccessCodeFromTarget` predicate gates a small "Inherited from target" badge in place of the existing `isSet` / `notSet` status pill. Changing the target after the slicer has already bound triggers an info toast ("Access code now matches the new target — re-add this device in your slicer") because the slicer's stored code is now stale. **One-shot startup migration** in `core/database.py` corrects any pre-existing mismatched VPs on first boot after the upgrade: SELECTs the diverged rows for an INFO log per VP (`VP 'Workshop Queue' (id=3) access code synced from target printer 'X1C #2'` — audit trail for anyone digging through logs), then UPDATEs via correlated subquery (idempotent — the WHERE clause excludes already-synced rows, so re-running is a no-op; portable across SQLite and Postgres). No user-facing banner because there's no action for the user to take — the fix is done, and a previously-stuck bridge now works. **Wiki**: `features/virtual-printer.md` line 1189 flipped from the wrong MQTT/FTP-work-either-way claim to "the bridge forwards slicer auth bytes through; Bambuddy auto-derives so the codes can't diverge", the line-84 tip's "for camera" framing replaced with the broader rule, and the port-table row for RTSP `:322` annotated with "transparent passthrough to the real printer's `:322`, same end-to-end TLS as proxy mode" so the dedicated-bind-IP-vs-passthrough-to-printer apparent contradiction reads as one consistent model. **i18n**: 5 new keys (`accessCode.inheritedFromTarget`, `accessCode.derivedFromTargetHint`, `accessCode.reveal`, `accessCode.hide`, `toast.targetCodeChangedRebind`) translated in all 11 locales (de/en/es/fr/it/ja/ko/pt-BR/tr/zh-CN/zh-TW), no English fallbacks per the project's hard rule.
- **File Manager sidebar: "All Files" now scopes to your own uploaded files; new "External" entry holds the combined linked-folder view (#1621, reported by @kcw96)** — Reporter linked a NAS share that auto-imported hundreds of 3MFs, and from then on their handful of Bambuddy-uploaded files was lost in the "All Files" listing — no filter, no toggle, only per-folder clicks to escape the noise. Restored the pre-external semantics so long-time users get their muscle memory back: "All Files" lists managed-storage files only (`is_external=False`), exactly what it meant before external folders existed. The combined "everything across every external mount" view moves to a new sibling sidebar entry, **External**, which only renders when at least one external folder is linked (zero-cost on installs that don't use the feature). Per-folder clicking is unchanged: clicking any folder in the tree — internal or external — still shows that folder's contents directly. **Backend**: `/api/v1/library/files` gains two mutually-exclusive query flags, `internal_only` and `external_only`, filtering directly on `LibraryFile.is_external`. Both-flags-set is a 400 (catches frontend regressions immediately instead of silently picking one). Folder- or project-scoped requests bypass both flags because they already imply a single scope. **Frontend**: new `topLevelView: 'internal' | 'external'` state on `FileManagerPage`, default `internal`; the query passes the corresponding scope only when `selectedFolderId === null`. Sidebar shows the "External" row gated on `folders.some(f => f.is_external)`; mobile selector dropdown carries a `__top:internal` / `__top:external` sentinel so the same state can round-trip through ``. Empty-state copy distinguishes "no internal files yet" from "no external files" so a user staring at an empty External view doesn't think their NAS is broken. **i18n**: 3 new keys (`allExternal`, `externalIsEmpty`, `externalEmptyDescription`) translated in all 10 non-English locales. **Tests**: 3 new backend integration tests in `test_library_api.py` (internal-only with mixed root + folder + external file mix, external-only across two NAS mounts, mutually-exclusive 400) and 3 new frontend tests in `FileManagerPage.test.tsx` (External entry conditional on `is_external`, default internal-only query, External-click switches scope). Existing 48 `FileManagerPage` tests + 11 `FileManagerExternalFolder` tests stay green. **Behaviour change for the small set of users who relied on the combined view as default**: clicking "External" once gets the previous union behaviour (across-all-externals); clicking a specific external folder still shows just that mount, same as before.
- **Empty AMS units no longer trigger hourly humidity/temperature notifications (#1619)** — The hourly AMS sensor recorder in `backend/app/main.py::record_ams_history` fanned out humidity and temperature alarms for every AMS unit above threshold without checking whether the unit was actually loaded with filament. Empty AMS units still report ambient sensor readings, so users with one loaded AMS and one empty one got useful alarms for the loaded unit and steady noise for the empty one every hour. The reporter's workaround (disable all AMS humidity notifications) also killed the useful alarms — not a real choice. New `_ams_has_filament(ams_data)` helper inspects the firmware-reported `tray_exist_bits` hex bitmap (one bit per tray slot, `"0"` / `"00"` = empty unit) with a fallback to the `tray` array's `tray_type` strings for early-pushall shapes where the bitmap is missing. The recorder gates the alarm dispatch on this check per-AMS-unit, so a multi-AMS printer with one loaded + one empty still alarms on the loaded one. **Sensor history still records regardless of the gate** so the System page humidity/temperature charts stay continuous — the only thing the gate suppresses is the outbound notification. 9 unit tests in `test_ams_alarm_gating.py` cover the bitmap-zero-is-empty case, single/multi/all-loaded variants, the `tray_exist_bits` missing → tray-array fallback, garbage bitmap → fallback, blank bitmap → fallback, non-string bitmap → fallback (Bambu sometimes sends `int`), whitespace-only `tray_type` not counting as loaded, and defensive non-dict tray entries.
- **Inventory: `/reset-usage` renamed to `/reset-consumed-counter`; UI label is now "Reset counter"** — The old endpoint name implied that calling it would drop `weight_used` to 0; in practice it only stamps `weight_used_baseline = weight_used` so the Inventory page's "Total Consumed" widget (which renders `weight_used - baseline`) reads 0 going forward, while remaining (`label_weight - weight_used`) is preserved. Calling the endpoint via curl and seeing `weight_used` unchanged in the JSON response is confusing — the name didn't describe what the endpoint actually does. New paths: internal `/api/v1/inventory/spools/{id}/reset-consumed-counter` + `/spools/reset-consumed-counter-bulk`, Spoolman-mode `/api/v1/spoolman/inventory/spools/{id}/reset-consumed-counter` + `/spools/reset-consumed-counter-bulk`. **Behaviour is unchanged in both modes**: internal stamps the baseline directly; Spoolman-mode PATCHes upstream `used_weight=0` and the `_map_spoolman_spool` read mapping at `_spoolman_helpers.py:252-268` reconstructs the same `displayed consumed = 0, remaining unchanged` Bambuddy-visible shape — Bambuddy-side parity between modes (per [[feedback_inventory_modes_parity]]) was already in place before this rename and is preserved. The Spoolman-client method `reset_spool_usage` keeps its name because it describes what's sent upstream to Spoolman, which has not been renamed. **Frontend**: `api.resetSpoolUsage` / `bulkResetSpoolUsage` (and Spoolman variants) renamed to `resetSpoolConsumedCounter` / `bulkResetSpoolConsumedCounter`. Button labels switch from "Reset usage to 0" to "Reset counter" / "Reset all counters" — short and unambiguous; tooltips and confirm-modal bodies still spell out the full semantics ("zero the consumed-grams counter; remaining weight is not changed"). **i18n**: 9 keys renamed (`resetUsage*`, `resetAllUsage*`, `usageReset`, `allUsageReset`, `resetUsageFailed` → `resetConsumedCounter*`, `resetAllConsumedCounters*`, `consumedCounterReset`, `allConsumedCountersReset`, `resetConsumedCounterFailed`); real translations shipped in all 10 non-English locales (de / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW) per the hard-rule against English fallbacks. **Tests**: `test_spool_reset_usage.py` (9 tests, internal mode) and 3 reset-related tests in `test_spoolman_inventory_api.py` updated to hit the new paths; behavioural assertions unchanged. **Breaking change for external API consumers** that already wired `/reset-usage` — no compat shim shipped because the old name actively misled callers; the migration is a one-line URL swap.
- **`docker-compose.yml`: bridge-mode warning about the 1001-port FTP passive range + docker-proxy RAM footprint (#1646, reported by @TheFou)** — Reporter on bridge mode (Docker default `userland-proxy: true`) saw ~2000 `docker-proxy` host processes spawn from the commented `"50000-51000:50000-51000"` line, pinning ~3.5 GB of host RAM before they had even logged in for the first time. Linux's host-mode default in the same compose file sidesteps this entirely (zero docker-proxy cost) — the issue only fires when a user forces bridge mode (typically macOS/Windows / Docker Desktop). The 1001-port range itself is load-bearing on the VP server side (`virtual_printer/ftp_server.py:567-574` documents the widening from 100 ports as multi-VP collision-avoidance headroom; reverting would regress that), so the fix is documentation, not code. Added a warning block above the commented FTP-passive line pointing bridge-mode users at `{ "userland-proxy": false }` in `/etc/docker/daemon.json` — the reporter confirmed this clears the issue on their setup. Kernel does NAT directly via iptables/nftables in that mode, no per-port host process needed; only side-effect is that connections originating from 127.0.0.1 on the host itself can't reach the container, which doesn't matter for nearly every Bambuddy install.
- **AMS drying now enabled for H2C starting at firmware 01.02.00.00** — H2C was previously in `_DRYING_UNSUPPORTED_MODELS` alongside the A1 family. Moved to `_DRYING_MIN_FIRMWARE` with the same `01.02.00.00` floor as H2S / P2S. Both SSDP model codes the H2C advertises (`O1C`, `O1C2` — single- and dual-nozzle variants) get the same firmware gate so the `supports_drying()` check fires correctly regardless of which form is in the printer record. Test coverage extended in `TestSupportsDrying`: H2C / O1C / O1C2 cases added to the with-firmware pass set, the old-firmware fail set, and removed from the unsupported-models loop.
### Fixed
- **PostgreSQL restore from a SQLite backup no longer deadlocks against the print scheduler (reproduced 2026-06-09 restoring a native install's backup into a fresh Docker+Postgres deploy)** — Reporter (Maziggy) backed up the native install, brought up the new Docker image against an external Postgres, hit Restore in Settings → Backup. ~2 seconds in, the restore aborted with `asyncpg.exceptions.DeadlockDetectedError: Process X waits for AccessExclusiveLock on relation 109940; Process Y waits for RowExclusiveLock on relation 110182`. **Root cause: the existing `close_all_connections()` step before the DB swap only disposes the SQLAlchemy engine's connection POOL — the asyncio tasks that USE the engine keep running.** The `print_scheduler.run()` loop (30 s cadence) and `smart_plug_manager._snapshot_loop()` (30 s cadence) wake up after the dispose, call `async_session()`, lazily reopen a pool connection, and start a normal transaction that grabs `RowExclusiveLock` on `print_queue` / `smart_plug_energy_snapshots`. The restore's `DROP TABLE IF EXISTS public. CASCADE` pass in `_import_sqlite_to_postgres` needs `AccessExclusiveLock` on every public table — AB/BA lock-order conflict, classic Postgres deadlock, restore transaction rolled back. The log confirms: `13:44:53,669` restore begins → `13:44:53,680` print_scheduler fires queue check → `13:44:55,607` smart_plug_manager fires snapshot → `13:44:55,607` deadlock detected. The existing code already paused `virtual_printer_manager` before restore for file-lock reasons; the other timer-based DB writers were missed. **Fix — two layers.** (1) Before `close_all_connections()`, pause the four most active timer-based DB writers via their existing stop affordances: `print_scheduler.stop()`, `smart_plug_manager.stop_scheduler()`, `notification_service.stop_digest_scheduler()`, `await background_dispatch.stop()`. Then `await asyncio.sleep(1.0)` to let in-flight loop iterations commit and release their sessions before the engine pool gets disposed. We don't restart the services on success because the restore handler already tells the user to restart Bambuddy to pick up the new DB. (2) Belt-and-braces inside `_import_sqlite_to_postgres`: prepend `SET LOCAL lock_timeout = '10s'` to the begin-block before the `DROP TABLE CASCADE` pass, so any residual writer that slips through the pause window (per-printer MQTT clients writing reactively to state changes, the hourly AMS history recorder firing inside the restore window, etc.) surfaces a fast `lock_timeout` error instead of producing a fresh deadlock or hanging the restore for 30+ seconds. `SET LOCAL` is transaction-scoped so the global default applies to every other DB caller. Scope clarification: there are ~12 background services started at lifespan startup; the four paused here are the ones with the tightest cadences. Slower-cadence services (`github_backup_service`, `local_backup_service`, `library_trash_service`, `archive_purge_service`, AMS history, runtime tracking, SpoolBuddy watchdog, camera cleanup) all fire on hour-or-longer intervals and are statistically very unlikely to land inside a few-second restore window; the lock_timeout layer catches them if they do. **Tests**: `test_restore_sqlite_wal_safety.py` and `test_settings_api.py` integration suites (53 tests) stay green on the edited handler; ruff clean; runtime smoke (`from backend.app.services.X import Y` + `hasattr` + `iscoroutinefunction` check) confirms all four stop signatures match the patch's sync/async mix.
- **Configure Slot now keeps the active K-profile on reopen for assigned-but-unconfigured slots (#1689 follow-up, reported and patched by @Spionkiller01)** — After the original #1689 fix shipped, Spionkiller01 found a residual case: on a slot that's *physically loaded but unconfigured* (filament inserted, but the printer hasn't bound a preset yet — `tray_type=""`, `tray_info_idx=""`, no `slot_preset_mappings` row), the first open of Configure Slot showed the right K-profile, but closing it with the X and reopening it dropped back to "default 0.020". Clicking "Configure slot" (Apply) once persisted it, but the user shouldn't have to. **Root cause: the original #1689 cali_idx safety net was unreachable on this code path.** `matchingKProfiles` in `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.tsx:751` early-returned `[]` when `selectedPresetInfo` was null — and `selectedPresetInfo` resolves to null exactly when there's no resolvable slot preset (unconfigured slot, no mapping row). The "always include the slot's currently-active K-profile by cali_idx" branch lives *past* the main name+id matcher, so it never ran from the no-preset path. On first open a freshly-cached preset briefly let the safety net trigger; on reopen the live slot state had no preset, returned `[]`, the auto-select effect saw no candidates, the modal fell back to default 0.020. **Fix (verbatim from Spionkiller01's H2C-tested diff, with the existing extruder guard):** split the early return into two — still short-circuit on missing kprofilesData, but when `selectedPresetInfo` is null and `slotInfo.caliIdx > 0`, find the active profile by `slot_id === activeIdx` (extruder-matched when known) and return it as a single-item list. The auto-select effect downstream then pre-selects it on reopen with no extra change. Strictly additive: with a resolvable preset present the existing matcher runs untouched; with `caliIdx === 0 || null` the function still returns `[]` (no unrelated profiles leak in). **Tests:** new vitest case `surfaces the slot's active K-profile when no preset is resolvable (#1689 follow-up)` exercises the path with `trayType=''`, no `savedPresetId`, and `caliIdx=6` against a K-profile fixture at `slot_id=6` — asserts the dropdown surfaces it. Verified the test fails without the patch (stash → run filter → fail; pop → run → pass). The existing `caliIdx === 0` guard test continues to pass under the new branch. Full ConfigureAmsSlotModal vitest 24/24 green. **Credit:** @Spionkiller01 for spotting the residual edge case after merge, producing the diff, and testing live on an H2C — `Co-Authored-By` on the commit.
- **K-profile matching now prefers filament_id over parsed names — surfaces custom profiles in the spool form AND fixes Configure Slot showing "default 0.020" for an actively-bound K-profile (#1688 + #1689, both reported and diagnosed by @Spionkiller01 with concrete H2C testing; #1689 also reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Two related symptoms on different UI surfaces, same root cause. **#1688: spool form's PA-profile suggester** (`frontend/src/components/spool-form/PAProfileSection.tsx` via `isMatchingCalibration` in `spool-form/utils.ts`) only matched K-profiles by parsing the profile *name* for material/brand/variant. Spools already store `slicer_filament` (the slicer preset's id) and K-profiles already carry `filament_id`, but both were ignored — so a user's custom K-profile whose name doesn't agree with the slicer preset's name got silently dropped from the suggestion list even when the underlying filament_id was identical. **#1689: ConfigureAmsSlotModal's K-profile filter** (`matchingKProfiles`) ran the same name-only logic on the slot's selected preset — a spool assigned under "Generic PLA" with a custom K-profile actively bound on the printer landed in the modal as "K profile not assigned, default 0.020 will be used", while the printer-card hover-card correctly showed the active profile. The hover-card and the Configure Slot modal disagreed because they used different lookup paths; the modal's path was the one with the name-parse filter. **The shared root cause: spool preset ids and K-profile filament_ids look different but are equivalent after normalisation.** Spools store `slicer_filament` as the cloud setting_id form ("GFSG98_09" — `_09` is the variant suffix, the "S" infix marks it as a setting_id); K-profiles store `filament_id` as the bare form ("GFG98"). Plain `===` doesn't match; both need normalising first. This conversion already exists *in the other direction* at `buildFilamentOptions` (filament_id → "GFS" + filament_id.slice(2) for setting_id), so the inverse `toFilamentId` helper isn't speculative — it's just the matching reverse. **Fix — one shared helper, two surfaces:** new exports in `frontend/src/components/spool-form/utils.ts` — `toFilamentId(id)` normalises both shapes by dropping the "_NN" variant suffix and stripping the "S" in "GFS" (so both "GFSG98_09" and "GFG98" yield "GFG98"); `isGenericFilamentId(id)` flags Bambu's generic `GFx99` ids (GFL99 = generic PLA, GFG99 = generic PETG, etc.) which are shared across many physical filaments and must NOT id-match (they over-match and obscure brand-specific profiles — name fallback handles those correctly). Then: (1) `isMatchingCalibration` accepts a new `slicer_filament?: string` formData field, tries id-match first (with generic exclusion), falls through to the existing name parse — `PAProfileSection` already passes the full `formData` so no caller edit needed. (2) `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.selectedPresetInfo` now also resolves a `filamentId` (via `toFilamentId(cp.setting_id)` for cloud presets; `toFilamentId(builtinFilamentId)` for builtin; empty for local/orca paths that fall through to name match); `matchingKProfiles` adds the id-match check at the top of the per-profile predicate, then keeps the existing name logic, then *always* unshifts the slot's currently-active K-profile (by `slot_id === slotInfo.caliIdx`, gated on `activeIdx > 0` so caliIdx=0/null doesn't leak unrelated profiles in, and extruder-matched when known) — covers the #1689 case where the spool was bound under a generic preset but the active profile lives under a different filament_id entirely. The "always include active" branch is Spionkiller01's #1689 diff verbatim, gated more tightly. **SpoolBuddy coverage:** both K-profile surfaces in the kiosk UI reuse the shared components — `SpoolBuddyWriteTagPage` renders `` (auto-fixed via `isMatchingCalibration`), `SpoolBuddyAmsPage` renders `` (auto-fixed via `matchingKProfiles`). No kiosk-specific edits required; the shared helpers carry the fixes through. (`SpoolBuddyCalibrationPage` is scale calibration, unrelated; `InventorySpoolInfoCard` is display-only.) **What this does NOT change**: spools without a slicer_filament, K-profiles without a filament_id, and generic GFx99 ids all fall through to the existing name-based matching path — strictly additive precedence, no behaviour change for the name-only cases that already worked. The new id-match never causes a *miss* the old code would have caught. **Tests:** 21 new vitest cases — `isMatchingCalibration.test.ts` (18 cases) pins the `toFilamentId` round-trip in both directions (GFSG98_09 → GFG98 and back is identity-preserving for the cloud→K-profile flow), the generic `GFx99` exclusion, falsy/non-Bambu id pass-through (numeric local-preset id, Orca UUID), and the id-match-wins-over-name behaviour including the spool's reported `"GFSG98_09" ↔ K-profile "GFG98"` real-data scenario. `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.test.tsx` (3 cases) pins the modal-level behaviour: a custom K-profile name surfaces when filament_id matches (#1688 in-modal), the slot's active profile is always included even with no name/id match (#1689), and the `caliIdx == 0` guard prevents unrelated profiles from leaking in via the safety net. Full frontend vitest suite: 2108 / 2108 green. ESLint clean on touched files; frontend build clean. **Credit & dispatch:** @Spionkiller01 diagnosed both issues with concrete data (the `GFSG98_09 ↔ GFG98` normalisation case is theirs), tested both patches live on an H2C, and explicitly offered to PR. Landed verbatim with adjustments (shared helper, tighter active-profile guard) and `Co-Authored-By`. @IndividualGhost1905 also reported #1689 independently and identified its connection to #1688.
- **Tabs no longer go silently zombie after the JWT expires — auth-expiry now redirects to /login on the same tab (#1698, reported by @TCL987, fix patched in reporter's fork)** — Reporter on X1C, Docker install, left a Bambuddy tab open past the 24 h JWT lifetime. After expiry: navigation between pages still worked, but every API request silently failed, leaving the UI looking like every list was empty. A manual refresh was needed to land on `/login`. **Root cause: `AuthContext.user` stays stale after the JWT clears.** When a 401 with a token-invalidating message (`Token has expired`, `Could not validate credentials`, `User not found or inactive`, `Invalid API key`, `API key has expired`) lands in `frontend/src/api/client.ts:154-167`, the handler calls `setAuthToken(null)` to drop the token from sessionStorage / localStorage — but `AuthContext.user` is a React state value that was populated once at mount via `checkAuthStatus()` → `/auth/me`, and `setAuthToken(null)` doesn't reach into AuthContext's React tree. `ProtectedRoute` (`App.tsx:101`) only redirects when `user === null`, so the protected tree keeps rendering, every subsequent request goes out with no Authorization header, the backend 401s, and the UI shows nothing. A page refresh remounts `AuthProvider`, `checkAuthStatus()` finds no token, `setUser(null)` fires, the redirect runs — which is what the reporter ended up doing every 24 h. The 3 other `setAuthToken(null)` call sites all live inside `AuthContext` itself and pair with `setUser(null)` directly, so no cross-module signal was needed for them; the `client.ts:165` site was the only one missing the React-tree notification. **Fix (mirrors the reporter's fork patch deec96d1):** after `setAuthToken(null)` in `client.ts`, dispatch a `window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('auth:expired'))` (guarded on `typeof window !== 'undefined'` for SSR / test safety). `AuthContext`'s mount `useEffect` adds a `window.addEventListener('auth:expired', handleAuthExpired)` listener whose handler calls `setUser(null)` after a `mountedRef.current` guard, and removes the listener in the effect's cleanup so unmount → remount doesn't double-bind. `ProtectedRoute` then sees `user === null` on the next render and runs ` ` immediately, no manual refresh needed. **What this intentionally does NOT change**: generic `401 Authentication required` responses (without a token-invalidating message) still don't clear the token or fire the event — they're treated as transient timing issues, exactly as `client.ts:155`'s pre-existing comment documents. So a one-off 401 from a race during login won't redirect a working session. Listener cleanup means tests / dev hot-reload don't accumulate handlers. **Tests:** 4 new vitest cases — `client.test.ts` gains "dispatches 'auth:expired' event on 401 with invalid token message" and "does not dispatch 'auth:expired' on 401 with generic auth error" (both use `vi.fn()` listeners on `window` to assert the event fires/doesn't fire). `AuthContext.test.tsx` gains a new `auth:expired event (#1698)` describe block — "clears user when an auth:expired event is dispatched" simulates the login → expiry → event → user-null flow end-to-end via `setAuthToken('valid-token')` (the canonical setter; writing to sessionStorage post-import wouldn't propagate to the module-level `authToken` variable initialised at import time), and "does not crash when the event fires after unmount" pins the `mountedRef` guard so the listener can't trigger a state-update-after-unmount warning. Full frontend vitest suite: 2087 / 2087 green. ESLint clean on touched files. Frontend build clean. **Credit to @TCL987** for diagnosing this and shipping the working fix on their fork before opening the issue.
- **Filament usage no longer over-counts when printing one plate from a multi-plate 3MF (#1697, reported by @volodymyr-doba)** — Reporter on P1S printed a single lid (~190 g grey PETG) from `gridfinity-storage-box-5x4x6.gcode.3mf` (a multi-plate file with 5×box + 5×lid plates) and the spool's Usage History recorded 242 g of grey + 31 g of black — the **whole file's** filament total, not the dispatched plate. The print took 5 h 47 m which matches the lid alone, and the queue card correctly previewed 190 g, but the spool got debited for everything. **Root cause: usage tracking parsed the 3MF without a plate filter.** `extract_filament_usage_from_3mf(file_path, plate_id)` in `backend/app/utils/threemf_tools.py` already supports filtering and the queue's pre-flight capacity check at `api/routes/print_queue.py:254/:286` passes `item.plate_id`, but the two completion-time recorders did not: `_track_from_3mf` in `services/usage_tracker.py:907` (internal Filament Inventory) and `store_print_data` in `services/spoolman_tracking.py:223` (Spoolman mode) both called the extractor with no plate_id and summed every plate. Per `feedback_inventory_modes_parity` both modes had to ship in the same drop, AND per the verification pass after the initial implementation: the direct-Print path (`api.reprintArchive` / `api.printLibraryFile` with `plate_id: selectedPlate` in `PrintModal/index.tsx:739/750`) hits the same bug because it never goes through the queue — caught before merge by tracing the frontend dispatch surface end-to-end. **Fix — two complementary captures:** (1) `PrintSession` gains a `plate_id: int | None` field; `on_print_start` queries `PrintQueueItem` for the printer's currently-printing row and records `queue_item.plate_id` onto the session — covers the queue path. (2) `register_expected_print` in `main.py` accepts a new `plate_id` parameter and stores it in a parallel `_print_plate_ids: dict[int, int]` dict (mirror of `_print_ams_mappings`); `background_dispatch.py`'s 2 register sites and `print_scheduler.py`'s 1 register site now pass plate_id (the dispatch already resolved it via `_resolve_plate_id`; reordering the resolve to run before register is a no-op since the resolver is pure). At expected-print promotion, `main.py` injects `_print_plate_ids[archive_id]` into `_active_sessions[printer_id].plate_id` (only when the session has no plate_id yet — queue captures win), mirroring the existing `ams_mapping` injection pattern. The dict drains on `on_print_complete` and on TTL eviction of the matching `_expected_prints` entry — same lifecycle as `_print_ams_mappings`. (3) `_track_from_3mf` accepts a new `plate_id` kwarg, threads it from `session.plate_id`, and passes it to `extract_filament_usage_from_3mf`. (4) `store_print_data` accepts a `plate_id` kwarg; the 3 call sites in `main.py` pass `_get_start_plate_id(archive_id)` (new helper, parallel to `_get_start_ams_mapping`); within `store_print_data` the caller value wins, falling back to `queue_item.plate_id` for the queue path. **The PrintArchive's `filament_used_grams` stays file-level summed by design** (#1593's contract — the archive describes the file, not the run); only the per-run usage attribution becomes plate-aware. **What this intentionally does NOT touch:** for direct Print of a single-plate file, `_resolve_plate_id` returns 1 → registered as `plate_id=1`, which extracts plate 1 = the whole file — identical to the prior no-filter behaviour. The change is observable only for multi-plate 3MFs where a specific non-first plate was dispatched. **Tests:** 9 new across `test_usage_tracker.py` + `test_spoolman_tracking.py` + `test_print_start_expected_promotion.py` — plate_id propagation through `_track_from_3mf`; absence leaves it `None`; on_print_start captures queue_item.plate_id; on_print_start no-op when no queue item; Spoolman-mode plate-scoped extract; `register_expected_print` stores `plate_id` in `_print_plate_ids`; `_get_start_plate_id` reads it back; injection into session for direct-Print (no queue capture); guarded against overwriting an already-captured queue plate_id. The pre-existing `test_prefers_explicit_ams_mapping_over_queue_mapping` updated for the new unconditional queue lookup (was conditional, now always queries to capture plate_id). Full 5830-test backend suite green. Ruff clean across the entire backend, not just touched files.
- **AMS slots with a spool loaded but no material configured now show "?" instead of "Empty" (#1694, reported by @kleinwareio)** — On a 3-AMS P1S the reporter's screenshot showed AMS-C slots labelled "Empty" even though spools were physically loaded; OrcaSlicer's Device view showed the same slots as loaded. **Root cause:** the compact label below the AMS slot circle in PrintersPage rendered `tray.tray_type || t('ams.slotEmpty')`, falling back to "Empty" whenever the printer firmware hadn't been told which material is in the slot. The codebase already had a `getEmptySlotKind` helper that distinguishes `'physical'` (firmware confirmed empty via state 9/10) from `'reset'` (tray_type absent but firmware hasn't confirmed empty — i.e. spool loaded, just unassigned). The hover-card / circle border already used that distinction (line 814+ comment); the compact label did not. **Fix:** label now branches on `emptyKind` — `'physical'` keeps "Empty" (the firmware-confirmed empty case), `'reset'` shows "?" (matching the slicer's own convention for "loaded but unknown material"). External / VT tray label is unchanged (external trays have no "configured/unconfigured" distinction — they're either loaded or not). The SpoolBuddy kiosk's `AmsUnitCard` was carrying the same bug and got the same fix (mirror of `getEmptySlotKind`, "?" vs "Empty" label, tooltip "Spool loaded — slot not configured"). **i18n:** new `ams.slotUnconfigured: '?'` key added to all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW) — value is universal so it's identical in every locale. The existing `ams.emptySlotReset = 'No filament assigned'` tooltip surface in FilamentHoverCard already covers the "what does this mean" question on hover, so no new tooltip key needed for the main card. **Tests:** AmsUnitCard vitest gains `shows "?" for loaded-but-unconfigured slot (#1694)` pinning both branches in one render (one slot with `state: 9` → "Empty", one with no state → "?"). Existing AMS tests stay green (9/9 SpoolBuddy AmsUnitCard; AMS load/unload page tests untouched and green); i18n parity green (5100 leaves × 11 locales); frontend build clean; ESLint clean.
- **Virtual Printer MQTT no longer disconnects idle OrcaSlicer at keepalive×1.5 (#1548 round 2, reported by @hollajandro)** — Round 1 (commits b6636053 + 4ffefa60) shipped the keepalive parser + 1.5× idle disconnect per MQTT spec §4.4 and a per-minute status-push diagnostic. Reporter's follow-up pcap proved the round-1 logic was correct as designed, but exposed the actual root cause: the same OrcaSlicer install which stays connected to a real Bambu P1S indefinitely sends zero MQTT packets after the initial CONNECT / SUBSCRIBE / pushall / get_version burst — no PINGREQ at all — so any §4.4-compliant server disconnects it at `keep_alive × 1.5`. **Real Bambu firmware does not enforce §4.4** (verified: the reporter's identical Orca install holds an idle session against real hardware on the same network), so spec compliance is itself the regression. **Fix:** after CONNECT/auth, drop the application-level read timeout entirely (`read_timeout = None`) and set `SO_KEEPALIVE` on the underlying socket so the OS TCP stack detects truly dead connections within a few minutes. The 60 s pre-CONNECT timeout is preserved — a client that opens TCP but never sends CONNECT still gets reaped to prevent half-open resource leaks. Negotiated keepalive is still parsed and now logged at INFO ("MQTT client … authenticated (negotiated keepalive=Xs, idle disconnect disabled)") for support-bundle visibility. **Tests:** TestHandleClientIdleConnection adds `test_idle_client_stays_open_past_one_and_a_half_times_keepalive` (negotiates keep_alive=2, sits idle for 4 s, asserts handler still running and writer not closed — direct round-1 inversion), `test_so_keepalive_set_on_socket_after_connect` pins `setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_KEEPALIVE, 1)` runs on the wrapped socket the moment auth succeeds. PINGREQ test docstring updated since there's no longer a timeout for it to "reset". All 33 VP MQTT server tests green; ruff clean. After this ships, OrcaSlicer should stay connected to the VP indefinitely while idle and reconnect cleanly on real network drops.
- **System page now reports the container's uptime / boot time, not the host's (#1690, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Reporter on Proxmox LXC observed that System → Uptime / Boot Time matched the Proxmox host's values, not the container's. **Root cause:** `psutil.boot_time()` reads `/proc/stat:btime`, which on shared-kernel containers (Docker, LXC) is the host kernel's boot time — leaking the host's lifecycle into Bambuddy's UI. **Fix:** read PID 1's create_time instead — `psutil.Process(1).create_time()` returns the POSIX timestamp of the init/entrypoint process, which in a container is the container's start time, and on bare metal / VMs is the host init (effectively identical to `psutil.boot_time()` within a sub-second). Defensive `psutil.Error` / `OSError` fallback to the old `psutil.boot_time()` for the rare case where /proc/1/stat is unreadable (locked-down container, custom seccomp policy). No frontend / i18n change — the field shape is unchanged, only the value is now correct on container installs. **Tests:** 2 new integration cases — one pins that the route reads `Process(1).create_time` and that the response uses that timestamp (not `boot_time`), the other pins the fallback path via a real `psutil.NoSuchProcess(1)` so the endpoint still returns 200 with the best-available answer. All 8 pre-existing system-info tests updated to also mock the new code path; full system API suite 20/20 green; ruff clean.
- **Profile editor filament type dropdown now lists PLA-CF and the other Bambu CF / GF / specialty materials (#1686, reported by @Bgabor997)** — Creating or editing a filament preset on the Profiles page (BL Cloud, Orca Cloud, and Local Profiles all open the same shared editor) only offered 11 base materials (PLA, ABS, PETG, TPU, PA, PA-CF, PET-CF, PC, ASA, PVA, HIPS). Reporter on P1S wanted to tag a custom preset as PLA-CF — the dropdown source had no entry, so the saved preset's `filament_type` was wrong and the printer received the wrong material code at dispatch. **Root cause:** `backend/app/data/filament_fields.json` (served by `GET /cloud/fields/filament` and consumed by `ProfilesPage` via `getCloudFields`) shipped a curated subset that pre-dated Bambu's CF/GF lineup expansion. Other surfaces in the codebase already named the canonical list (`utils/filament_ids.py` `GENERIC_FILAMENT_IDS`, `spool-form/utils.ts` MATERIALS, the Bambu filament-id catalog in `cloud.py`), so the gap was specifically in the editor's allowed-values JSON. **Fix:** expanded the `filament_type` select to 25 BambuStudio-aligned options grouped by family — PLA (+ CF/GF/AERO), PETG (+ CF), ABS (+ GF), ASA (+ CF/GF), PC, PCTG, PA family (+ CF/PAHT-CF/PA6-CF/PA6-GF), PET-CF, TPU, PPS family (+ CF/GF for X1E), PVA, HIPS. No frontend, no i18n (material codes are universal). K-profiles editor unaffected — it picks `filament_id`, not `filament_type`. **Tests:** 15 unit cases in `test_filament_fields_options.py` pin every newly-added variant (PLA-CF, PLA-GF, PLA-AERO, PETG-CF, ABS-GF, ASA-CF, ASA-GF, PCTG, PAHT-CF, PA6-CF, PA6-GF, PPS, PPS-CF, PPS-GF) plus the baseline-must-still-be-present guard so a future curation pass can't silently drop them.
- **Native systemd install no longer fails when INSTALL_PATH is under /home (#1685, reported by @Geoff-S)** — `bambuddy.service` shipped with `ProtectHome=true`, which makes `/home/*` invisible to the service namespace. When the user installed into `/home/bambuddy/` (instead of the default `/opt/bambuddy/`), the `ExecStart=/home/bambuddy/venv/bin/uvicorn` path couldn't be resolved at exec time and the unit failed with `status=203/EXEC: Unable to locate executable`. The `ReadWritePaths=$INSTALL_PATH` directive doesn't reliably re-expose `/home/*` subpaths for executable resolution. **Fix:** `install/install.sh` now detects `INSTALL_PATH == /home/*` and emits `ProtectHome=read-only` for that case; the default `/opt/bambuddy/` install keeps the stricter `ProtectHome=true`. The manual `deploy/bambuddy.service` template defaults to `ProtectHome=read-only` with a comment explaining when to tighten it to `true`. `read-only` keeps `/home` immutable to the service (no security regression — the service can read its venv but not write anywhere outside the `ReadWritePaths` allowlist).
- **VP settings card now shows the target printer's serial in proxy mode** — On a proxy-mode VP, the runtime services (SSDP advertisement, MQTT bind identity, certificate subject) all use the target printer's actual serial via `target_printer_serial or self.serial` (`manager.py:235, 941, 957`), but the `/api/v1/virtual-printers` response — which feeds the VP settings card — always returned the self-generated suffix-based serial from `_get_serial_for_model(model_code, vp.serial_suffix)`. The card therefore displayed a serial that didn't match what the bridge actually advertises and what the slicer sees, breaking the visual "one identity per VP" mental model. **Fix:** `_vp_to_dict` (`api/routes/virtual_printers.py:77`) is now async and accepts `db`; when `vp.mode == VP_MODE_PROXY and vp.target_printer_id`, it issues a single `SELECT serial_number FROM printers WHERE id = vp.target_printer_id` and substitutes the result into the response `serial` field. Archive / queue / review modes keep the self-generated serial — those modes synthesise their own identity and never speak the target's. **Defensive fallback** when the target row is missing (printer deleted mid-config, manual SQL tweak, race between delete-printer and read-VP): the response falls back to the self-generated serial so the card still renders and the user can fix the target, rather than the API 500-ing. All 4 `_vp_to_dict` call sites (list, create, get, update) updated to `await` with `db`. **Tests:** 3 new in `TestVirtualPrinterSerialSurface` — proxy VP returns target serial across all three response paths (create / get / list), non-proxy VP with a target still uses the self-generated serial, orphaned proxy VP falls back to self-generated. Full VP API suite stays green (34/34); VP unit suite stays green (126/126); ruff clean.
- **Print modal now exposes a "Nozzle Offset Calibration" toggle for dual-nozzle printers (#1682, reported by @louiskleiman)** — Reporter on H2D running diamond nozzles: BambuStudio exposes a per-print "Nozzle Offset Calibration" option that is incompatible with diamond hot ends, but Bambuddy had no way to control the same flag, so every dispatch silently set it to the firmware default. **Root cause: the field was hardcoded.** `bambu_mqtt.py:3445` always wrote `"nozzle_offset_cali": 2` (skip) into the MQTT `project_file` payload, regardless of model, regardless of any user choice. The wire format is tri-state — `1`=run, `2`=skip — and matches BambuStudio's encoding; the manual-calibration route (`/printers/{id}/calibration`) already wired the corresponding `cali_idx=2` MQTT command, but the **dispatch-time** toggle was simply absent. For most users this was invisible (BambuStudio's default is "run" on H2D / H2D Pro / H2C / X2D, Bambuddy's default was effectively "skip"), but a diamond-nozzle setup that needs the calibration explicitly off had no way to confirm Bambuddy's behaviour or override it the other way once we add a toggle that follows the slicer's default. **Fix: end-to-end plumbing of `nozzle_offset_cali` with a hard MQTT-layer gate on dual-nozzle.** `start_print()` (`bambu_mqtt.py:3300`) gains a `nozzle_offset_cali: bool = False` kwarg and the project_file payload line becomes `"nozzle_offset_cali": 1 if (nozzle_offset_cali and is_dual_nozzle) else 2`. The dual-nozzle check reuses `is_dual_nozzle_model()` and the runtime `_is_dual_nozzle` flag (set when `device.extruder.info` has ≥ 2 entries) — same canonical signal the rest of bambu_mqtt.py uses for routing decisions. **Even if a stale queue item from when the printer was misidentified carries the flag, the MQTT layer downgrades it to `2`** so firmware never tries to calibrate a head it doesn't have. The kwarg threads through `printer_manager.start_print()`, both `background_dispatch` call sites, and `print_scheduler._start_print` so every dispatch path — direct reprint, library file, queue-dispatched, watchdog-recover — respects the per-item setting. **Persistence:** `print_queue.nozzle_offset_cali` column (BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE, branched on `is_sqlite()` because Postgres rejects `DEFAULT 1` for BOOLEAN, caught by my Postgres test environment before this shipped) — default TRUE matches BambuStudio's behaviour on dual-nozzle, the MQTT gate makes the value a no-op on single-nozzle. New `default_nozzle_offset_cali` setting (default TRUE) plumbed through `schemas/settings.py`, the settings PUT allowlist, and the SettingsPage card — the row in **Settings → Default Print Options** only renders when `printers.some(p => p.nozzle_count === 2)`, so single-nozzle-only users never see a control they can't act on. ReprintRequest + FilePrintRequest schemas (`schemas/archive.py`, `schemas/library.py`) carry the field too so the API surface is consistent across the three "send 3MF to printer" routes. **Frontend:** `PrintOptionsPanel` (`components/PrintModal/PrintOptions.tsx`) accepts a `showDualNozzleOptions` prop and filters the option list; `PrintModal/index.tsx` computes it from `selectedPrinters.some(p => p.nozzle_count === 2)` in printer-mode or from a small inline `DUAL_NOZZLE_MODELS` set in model-mode (mirrors the backend `DUAL_NOZZLE_MODELS` frozenset: `H2D`, `H2DPRO`, `H2C`, `X2D`). The same gate flows through `QueuePage` bulk-edit — the new tri-state toggle only renders if any registered printer has `nozzle_count === 2`. Labels reuse the existing `settings.defaultBedLevelling` / `settings.defaultFlowCali` / etc. translation keys (identical strings, already translated) to keep i18n churn proportional to the actual new copy. **i18n:** 3 new keys per locale × 11 locales = 33 entries — `settings.defaultNozzleOffsetCali`, `settings.defaultNozzleOffsetCaliDesc`, `queue.bulkEdit.nozzleOffsetCali` — real translations in every locale (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW), no English fallbacks. i18n parity check confirms 5069 leaves × 11 locales. **Tests:** 4 new in `test_bambu_mqtt.py` pin the four-quadrant gate: default value (P1S, no kwarg → `2`), single-nozzle ignore (P1S, kwarg `True` → still `2` — the safety net), dual-nozzle honour (H2D, `True` → `1`), dual-nozzle false (H2D Pro, `False` → `2` — the diamond-nozzle case). `test_printer_manager.py` updated for the new kwarg in `assert_called_once_with`. Frontend tests: existing PrintModal / QueuePage / SettingsPage suites pass with the new field threaded through (117 / 117). Full backend suite: 3840 / 3840 pass. ruff clean; frontend build clean; ESLint clean; i18n parity green.
- **"Assign Spool" no longer claims the AMS slot was configured when it wasn't (#1680, reported by @kleinwareio)** — Reporter clicked Assign Spool from the printer card for AMS-B slot 4 while that slot was empty. The toast said "Spool assigned and AMS slot configured" but the AMS card kept showing slot 4 as Empty. **Root cause: misleading toast on the empty-slot deferred-config path.** The backend (`inventory.py:1385-1405`) deliberately skips the MQTT `ams_filament_setting` publish when the AMS reports an empty tray state (state ∈ {9, 10}) because Bambu firmware silently drops the push for empty slots — there's no point sending a command the printer will discard. The assignment row is persisted with `pending_config=true`, and `on_ams_change` (`main.py:1031-1054`) re-fires the full configuration the moment the AMS reports a non-empty fingerprint in that slot. The flow is correct; the success log line `Pre-configured assignment: spool 16 → printer 1 AMS1-T3 (slot empty, will configure on insert)` confirms the backend did exactly that. **But the frontend ignored the response flag.** `AssignSpoolModal.tsx:153` always called `showToast(t('inventory.assignSuccess'), 'success')` — the wording "Spool assigned and AMS slot configured" — regardless of whether the backend actually configured the slot or deferred. The sibling SpoolBuddy modal (`spoolbuddy/AssignToAmsModal.tsx:212-226`) already branched on `pending_config` and showed a distinct "Slot will configure when you insert the spool" message; the printer-card modal was just never updated to match. **Fix:** `AssignSpoolModal.tsx` now reads `newAssignment.pending_config` and picks between `'inventory.assignSuccess'` (slot configured immediately) and the new `'inventory.assignPendingInsert'` ("Assigned. Slot will configure when you insert the spool.") key. Spoolman-mode branch unchanged — the Spoolman backend route always sends the MQTT push (no pending_config flag is exposed) and the SpoolBuddy modal's existing comment documents that. **i18n:** new `inventory.assignPendingInsert` key in all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW), translations copied verbatim from the existing parallel `spoolbuddy.modal.assignPendingInsert` entries so the message reads identically across the app. No English fallbacks per the project's hard rule; i18n parity check confirms 5066 leaves × 11 locales. **Tests:** 2 new in `AssignSpoolModal.test.tsx` — `shows the pending-insert toast when backend returns pending_config=true (#1680)` pins the new branch (slot-was-empty case the reporter hit), and `shows the configured toast when backend returns pending_config=false (#1680)` is the counterpart regression guard so a future refactor can't silently mark every assign as pending. Both also assert the WRONG toast is NOT also called (defense against accidental double-toast). 16/16 AssignSpoolModal tests pass; frontend build clean; ESLint clean.
- **Restarting Bambuddy mid-print no longer marks the live archive as "cancelled / aborted" + duplicates it + double-counts filament (#1679, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Reporter on X1C, daily build `v0.2.5b1-daily.20260607`: a print was running, the host was restarted (planned reboot / power outage / watchtower image update), and Bambuddy's printer card showed the print as **cancelled** while the printer continued printing happily. Print log showed `aborted` for that row, filament usage was deducted at the cancellation moment (48.6 g / 5 % in the supplied screenshots), and when the print actually finished a *second* archive was created and filament was deducted *again*. Net effect: filament inventory off by the entire print weight, statistics showing one "user-cancelled" entry alongside one "completed" entry for the same physical print. Second confirmed hit from the same reporter, plus a corroborating comment from @Arn0uDz on watchtower-driven restarts. **Root cause: connected-edge reconciliation fired on a bare MQTT-connected state that had no real data yet.** On Bambuddy startup, a fresh `BambuMQTTClient` is constructed with `PrinterState` defaults — most importantly `state.state = "unknown"` and `state.subtask_name = ""`. The MQTT `_on_connect` callback (`bambu_mqtt.py:668-669`) broadcasts `on_state_change(self.state)` *immediately* after the broker accepts the connection — BEFORE the `_request_push_all` round-trips with the printer's real status. `on_printer_status_change` (`main.py:825`) sees `state.connected=True` flip on the connected-edge, spawns `reconcile_stale_active_prints` for that printer. The reconcile walks every archive in `status="printing"`, calls `_is_active_archive_stale` (`main.py:3352`) — which sees `state.state="UNKNOWN"` (skips the IDLE/FINISH/FAILED branch), then `state.subtask_name=""` (matches trigger 3, "printer subtask_name empty") and **returns stale**. A synthesised `aborted` PRINT COMPLETE fires for every in-flight archive on every printer, clears `_active_prints`, and when the real PRINT COMPLETE finally arrives at print end, `_active_prints` doesn't have the entry, so a brand-new archive row is created instead of overwriting the synthesised one. The pre-existing comment at `_is_active_archive_stale` ("the next real PRINT COMPLETE would have overwritten the status anyway") was wrong: the reactive completion handler uses `_active_prints` for lookup, not a join on filename/subtask_id, so the original row stays cancelled and a duplicate is born. Timing-dependent in practice — on hosts where the printer's first `push_status` response wins the race against the reconcile background task, state is real and reconcile doesn't false-positive; on slower hosts or busy MQTT brokers, the bare-connect-edge fires first and the bug hits. The reporter is on a slower-race host and saw it twice. **Fix: two-layer guard.** (1) Primary: `on_printer_status_change` now gates the reconcile spawn on `state.state` being a real value — `state_known = bool(state.state) and state.state.upper() not in ("", "UNKNOWN")` — so reconcile doesn't fire until the first `push_status` updates `state.state` to a real Bambu firmware value (RUNNING / IDLE / FINISH / PREPARE / SLICING / PAUSE / FAILED). When that real push arrives, `on_printer_status_change` fires again, the connected-edge flag is still `False` (we never set it), and reconcile runs against actual evidence. The existing #1542 mechanism — synthesising a missed PRINT COMPLETE for prints that finished during a disconnect window — keeps working: if the printer reports `IDLE` on its first real push after reconnect, reconcile catches it the way it always did. (2) Belt-and-braces: `_is_active_archive_stale` now returns `(False, "")` when `state.state` is empty / `"unknown"` / `None`, regardless of the subtask fields. Strictly more conservative than the previous behaviour; only suppresses the degenerate-input false positive. Any future caller that bypasses the primary gate still can't synthesise an aborted completion from defaults. **Tests:** `test_reconcile_stale_active_prints.py` 26 cases (up from 21) — new parametrize `test_pre_push_state_returns_not_stale_even_with_empty_subtask` pins all five degenerate forms (`"unknown"`, `"UNKNOWN"`, `"Unknown"`, `""`, `None`) and asserts none triggers stale even with empty `subtask_id` + empty `subtask_name`. The existing #1542 regression coverage stays green — terminal-state, subtask-id-mismatch, and empty-subtask-name-under-RUNNING all still report stale on real state pushes. Full backend suite: 3836 / 3836 pass. ruff clean.
- **Print queue no longer wedges in "Currently Printing" when a printer accepts `project_file` but never starts (#1678, reported by @kleinwareio)** — Reporter on two P1S, one was power-cycled mid-print and came back online; from then on Bambuddy showed the next queue item as "Currently Printing" at 0% while the printer card showed "Idle / Ready to print". The same file also re-appeared in the Queued list as Pending after the user resubmitted. Only restarting the Bambuddy container ever recovered it. Support log + screenshots confirm: at dispatch time MQTT `project_file` was ACK'd, printer pushed `gcode_state=IDLE, gcode_file=, subtask_id=` — i.e. the file landed on the printer but the printer never transitioned IDLE → PREPARE → RUNNING. **Root cause: `_watchdog_print_start` returned SUCCESS as soon as `subtask_id` advanced.** The subtask_id-as-pickup-signal was added for H2D, which can sit at `FINISH` for ~50 s after accepting `project_file` before flipping to PREPARE (#1078) — but it's strictly a "command landed" signal, not "actually printing". When the printer accepts the file but then wedges (cloud+LAN re-auth dance after a power cycle, old firmware, partial network outage), the watchdog returned success, the queue row stayed at `status='printing'`, the in-memory `_expected_prints` entry stayed registered (TTL is 2 hours and only clears the dict, not the DB row), and every subsequent queue item was blocked because the printer was still "in flight". This reporter's firmware (01.07.00.00, current is 01.08.x+) and `bambu_cloud_token`-enabled cloud+LAN mode make the post-power-cycle wedge measurably more likely on their box, but the queue-wedge bug applies to any printer that accepts a file but stalls before starting. **Fix: split the watchdog into two phases.** Phase A (up to `timeout`, default 90 s, unchanged behaviour) waits for either an active-state transition OR a `subtask_id` advance — if neither happens the publish was lost on a half-broken MQTT session (#887/#936) and we revert + force-reconnect (the original #967 recovery path). Phase B (new, up to `phase_b_timeout`, default 180 s) only runs when Phase A exited via subtask_id-alone: keep watching for the active-state transition. 180 s is ~3.5× the worst observed H2D FINISH → PREPARE delay (#1078), so the H2D path stays green. If Phase B times out the queue item is reverted to `pending` so the user can retry without restarting Bambuddy — and Phase B explicitly does NOT force a MQTT reconnect because subtask_id-advance proves the project_file landed and a forced reconnect mid-parse triggers 0500_4003 (#1150). Phase A's existing `gcode_file`-changed discriminator (#1150) stays put for the no-subtask-id-advance case. **Tests:** `test_scheduler_watchdog.py` 14 cases (up from 13) — the #1078 H2D regression test rewritten to step the status through Phase A (subtask_id advance with state=FINISH) then Phase B (state flips to RUNNING) and pin success; new `test_reverts_when_subtask_advanced_but_state_never_active` pins the #1678 wedge case (subtask_id advances, state stays IDLE for the full Phase B window → revert + NO force_reconnect call); new `test_default_phase_b_timeout_is_180_seconds` pins the new default so a future refactor doesn't silently shrink the H2D headroom. Existing #967 / #1150 / #1370 / disconnect / fallback / discriminator regression coverage all stays green. Wider scheduler + queue + dispatch test surface (305 tests) stays green; ruff clean.
- **Service-worker activate handler no longer hangs first-install browsers (demo site stuck spinner + Firefox Corrupted-Content)** — Reproduced live on the demo platform: a visitor lands on `{session}.demo.bambuddy.cool/`, the Printers page renders, but clicking any sidebar entry sticks the next page on a spinner; only a manual reload recovers. In Firefox the same race surfaces as a "Corrupted Content Error" with `sw.js` stuck in `activating` for the entire session. **Root cause:** the `client.navigate(client.url)` call added to the `activate` handler in `sw.js` (commit `18d534c9`, shipped 2026-06-04 alongside the Orca Cloud landing) was intended to force kiosks running an old SW to reload after a deploy, but its only guard was `client.url && typeof client.navigate === 'function'` — neither distinguishes a first install from an upgrade. On every fresh origin (every demo session is a new subdomain, but also any browser visiting Bambuddy for the first time, or after clearing site data) the activate handler still fired the forced navigation: Chromium raced it against React Router's in-flight SPA mount and wedged the page; Firefox's `event.waitUntil` deadlocked on `await client.navigate(...)` because the SW intercepts its own document fetch while still `activating`, the document load aborts, and the SW never reaches `activated`. The "first install on a never-controlled client" guard the commit's comment claimed simply didn't exist in code. **Fix: split the lifecycle correctly.** `sw.js` activate handler is reduced to cache cleanup + `clients.claim()` (matches the standard PWA lifecycle and lets activation complete in low single-digit ms regardless of in-flight document state). The deploy-pickup reload moves to `sw-register.js`: capture `hadController = !!navigator.serviceWorker.controller` at script load (true ⇔ a previous SW was controlling the document), listen for `controllerchange`, and only `location.reload()` when `hadController` was true. A returning kiosk hits a new deploy → had a controller → reloads as before. A first-install visitor (no prior SW, or hard-refresh, or first demo session) → no controller → no forced navigation → React mount completes cleanly. `CACHE_NAME` bumped `bambuddy-v29 → bambuddy-v30` and `STATIC_CACHE` `bambuddy-static-v28 → bambuddy-static-v29` so existing browsers fetching the new `sw.js` drop the old CacheStorage in the same pass — without the bump the SW file byte content might equal the cached one and the upgrade installs nothing. The SpoolBuddy-kiosk unregister branch at the top of `sw-register.js` is unchanged (still wipes registrations on `/spoolbuddy` paths). The `notificationclick` handler in `sw.js` (open-tab-on-push) still uses `client.navigate(url)` — different code path, unrelated, unchanged.
- **VP archive/queue names with `&` no longer render as `&` + tooltip corrected for BambuStudio 2.7.x reality (#1658 follow-up, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Two bugs surfaced on the same screenshot set: (A) Metadata-mode archive and queue names showed `PCB Vise & Solder Station` where the 3MF's Title metadata is `PCB Vise & Solder Station`. **Root cause:** `ThreeMFParser._parse_3dmodel` (`backend/app/services/archive.py:495-538`) parsed the XML `… ` payload via regex and stripped whitespace but never called `html.unescape()`. The raw `&` landed in the DB; React then auto-escaped the `&` again on render, producing `&`. The sibling parser `ProjectPageParser` (line 754) already had a loop-until-stable unescape and a comment explaining why ("content is often triple-encoded" — observed BambuStudio behavior), the makerworld-fields path just didn't share it. **Fix:** module-level `import html` and the same loop-until-stable unescape pattern in `_parse_3dmodel`, applied uniformly to all `` values so `Title`, `Designer`, and any future fields all get peeled the same way. The loop terminates as soon as `html.unescape()` stops changing the string, so single-, double-, and triple-encoded payloads all converge to the correct value; plain ASCII passes through untouched. (B) Filename-mode showed the slugified project title (`PCB_Vise_&_Solder_Station`) instead of the user-typed Send-dialog text ("Main Parts"). **This is NOT a Bambuddy bug** — BambuStudio source confirms it. `PrintJob.cpp:314-325` (`src/slic3r/GUI/Jobs/PrintJob.cpp`) reads `BBL_DESIGNER_MODEL_TITLE_TAG` (defined as `"Title"` in `bbs_3mf.hpp`) from the 3MF, slugifies it (space → `_`, unusable chars `<>[]:/\|?*"` → `_`, collapse runs of `_`, truncate to 100 chars), and **unconditionally overwrites** the user-typed `m_project_name` with it before sending. `params.project_name` becomes both the FTP filename and the MQTT `subtask_name`. The user-typed string never leaves BambuStudio when a Title metadata exists — there is no MQTT field carrying it, so Bambuddy has no recovery path. The previous tooltip ("handy if you renamed the job in the 'send to printer' dialog") promised something BambuStudio strips, and the previous reply to the reporter dismissed this as "OrcaSlicer-style upload, working as designed" which was wrong on BambuStudio 2.7.1.57. **Fix:** tooltip rewritten in all 11 locales (de / en / es / fr / it / ja / ko / pt-BR / tr / zh-CN / zh-TW) to spell out the BambuStudio behavior — both modes often produce the same string because BS overwrites the Send-dialog name with the 3MF Title field when present. **Tests**: 3 new in `test_archive_service.py::TestThreeMFMetadataHTMLUnescape` — `Title` with `&` unescapes to `&` (the reporter's exact case), `Title` with triple-encoded `&amp;` peels all three layers (the BambuStudio worst-case ProjectPageParser already documents), plain `Title=Benchy` passes through unchanged (regression guard against accidentally munging non-encoded payloads). Full 104-test archive suite green; ruff clean; i18n parity holds (5065 leaves × 11 locales); frontend build clean.
- **FTP passive-port pool now sliced per-VP (10 ports each) so bridge-mode Docker drops from ~3.5 GB to ~210 MB host RAM (#1646, reported by @TheFou — followed up with corrections we acted on)** — Reporter on a Linux Docker VM (`network_mode: host` not viable because other containers already bind the same ports) measured 2002 `docker-proxy` host processes spawned from the previously-exposed `50000-51000:50000-51000` range — one process per port per address family, ~3.5 MB RSS each, ~3.5 GB total that doesn't show up in `docker stats` because it's host-level not container-level. **Root cause: shared port pool, treated as symptom not cause.** `VirtualPrinterFTPServer` exposed `PASSIVE_PORT_MIN/MAX` as **class constants** (`backend/app/services/virtual_printer/ftp_server.py:573-574`), so every VP's FTP session passed the same `(50000, 51000)` range into `_bind_passive_port` and competed on the same 0.0.0.0 binds. The widening from 100 → 1001 ports in an earlier round had been collision-avoidance headroom for multi-VP-on-shared-bind, but the cost was paid by every install — including the reporter's single-VP install that only ever needed ~10 ports of headroom. **Fix: per-VP non-overlapping slices, allocated by VP id.** New module-level `compute_passive_port_slice(vp_id) → (port_min, port_max)` returns a 10-port window: VP id 1 → 50000-50009, VP id 2 → 50010-50019, …, VP id 100 → 50990-50999. Class constants are gone; `VirtualPrinterFTPServer.__init__` now takes `passive_port_min` / `passive_port_max` instance args. `manager.py` computes the slice at server-construction time from `self.id` and passes it in. Result for the reporter (single VP): 10 exposed ports → 20 docker-proxy processes → ~70 MB instead of ~3.5 GB. Three VPs → 30 ports → ~210 MB. **Wrap-around behaviour pinned**: VP ids beyond `PASSIVE_MAX_SLOTS = 100` wrap modulo 100 (an install that's churned through many VPs over time still produces a valid in-range slice). A same-slot collision (vp_id 101 lands on the same slice as vp_id 1) falls back to the per-session 10-attempt random retry that pre-#1646 code already had — same recovery, no regression. **Compose default narrowed**: `docker-compose.yml` now exposes `50000-50029:50000-50029` by default (covers 3 VPs out of the box) instead of the 1001-port range. The comment explains how to widen for more VPs (`50000-500N9` for `N = vp_count - 1`) and that proxy-mode VPs still need `50000-50100:50000-50100` because proxy mode forwards the real printer's full range — that codepath uses a separate `TCPProxy.FTP_DATA_PORT_MIN/MAX` and isn't sliced (the real printer owns that range, not Bambuddy). **Doc corrections in the same drop**: the previous warning over-stated `userland-proxy: false` as "confirmed by the reporter" — TheFou had flagged it as theoretical, not tested; the new comment doesn't push it as a recommendation at all (it's a global daemon flag, too blunt for a per-container problem). The new comment also explicitly names Linux multi-service hosts (NAS, dedicated Docker VMs, Unraid, Synology DSM) as a primary bridge-mode audience instead of leaving the warning under a "macOS/Windows" framing that TheFou pointed out missed his use case. Acknowledges that host-mode default is a deliberate trade-off for SSDP discovery, not a security-blind default. **Tests**: 10 new in `test_vp_ftp_port_slicing.py` — `compute_passive_port_slice` pins: vp_id=1 starts at base, consecutive vp_ids get adjacent non-overlapping slices, no two distinct vp_ids within MAX_SLOTS share a port (exhaustive across all 100 slots), wraps modulo MAX_SLOTS, top slot stays within the documented pool, non-positive vp_ids clamp to slot 0 (defensive — never produce a negative port that would crash `asyncio.start_server`). Two `VirtualPrinterFTPServer` instance tests pin: two instances constructed with different slices stay independent (regression guard against re-introducing class-level state), default-arg construction yields a valid one-slice window. Existing proxy-mode test at `test_virtual_printer.py:2269` (101 ports for `_ftp_data_proxies`) stays green — that path is unchanged. Full 130-test VP suite green.
- **Print Log "User" column now shows the user for prints started from the Queue (#1670, reported by @JmanB52D)** — Reporter on a P2S with auth enabled, Virtual Printer in Queue mode and Auto-dispatch off: a user uploads a `.3mf` to the VP (FTP, anonymous), then logs into Bambuddy and clicks ▶ on the staged queue item to start it; the print finishes and the PrintLogEntry's User column is blank. Same setup with the VP in Archive (slicer-initiated) mode correctly attributes the user. **Root cause: two-link gap on the Queue→manual-start dispatch path.** (a) `POST /queue/{id}/start` (`print_queue.py:1039`) auth-protected, but the route's user dep was bound to `_` and discarded — the clicker was never recorded. (b) `PrintScheduler._start_print` (`print_scheduler.py:1886`) dispatches the queue item directly and never calls `printer_manager.set_current_print_user(...)`. The print-complete callback (`main.py:3513`) reads `_print_user_info = printer_manager.get_current_print_user(printer_id)` — which is only ever populated by `background_dispatch.py:747/943` (the Archive→Print and Library→Print flows). Queue dispatch had no equivalent hop, so `_print_user_info` was always `None` and the PrintLogEntry's `created_by_username` landed `NULL`. **Fix (two-sided):** (1) `print_queue.py /start` now binds the auth dep to `user: User | None` and writes `item.created_by_id = user.id` when `user is not None AND item.created_by_id is None` — credits the clicker on VP-uploaded (unattributed) items without overwriting existing attribution from UI-added queue items (matches the standard "first claim wins" ownership rule in `auth.py::require_ownership_permission`). (2) `print_scheduler.py` gains a small `_propagate_owner_to_printer_manager` helper, called from `_start_print` immediately after `register_expected_print`: when `item.created_by_id` resolves to a real User row, it forwards `(printer_id, owner.id, owner.username)` into `printer_manager.set_current_print_user`. No-ops cleanly when the item has no owner (auto-dispatched VP items intrinsically) or when the user row is missing (e.g. user deleted between queue-add and dispatch — the print log row falls back to un-credited rather than crashing the dispatch). **Tests:** 6 new in `test_queue_start_user_attribution.py` — three route tests pin (a) authenticated `/start` writes `created_by_id` on an unattributed item, (b) an existing owner is preserved when a different user clicks `/start`, (c) auth-disabled leaves `created_by_id=NULL` (no synthetic placeholder user invented); three helper tests pin (d) the propagation forwards the resolved username into `set_current_print_user`, (e) a `None` owner is silently skipped, (f) a missing User row is silently skipped instead of raising. Full 63-test `test_print_queue_api.py` suite stays green. Backend ruff clean.
- **AMS drying popover's "Start Drying" button is no longer hidden behind iOS Safari's bottom URL bar on iPhone (#1669, reported via in-app bug report, iPhone 17 Safari)** — Reporter could see the temperature / duration sliders and the "Rotate spool during drying" checkbox but couldn't reach the orange Start Drying button at the bottom of the popover — only a thin sliver of it was visible just above Safari's URL bar. **Root cause:** the popover sizes its `maxHeight` against CSS `100vh` (`PrintersPage.tsx:5443`) and positions itself using `window.innerHeight` (via `computePopoverPosition`, `popoverPosition.ts:53`). On iOS Safari both of those report the **layout** viewport — the full screen ignoring the bottom URL/toolbar overlay — not the visual viewport. The popover therefore extends *behind* Safari's bottom toolbar and the footer button gets clipped. Earlier iterations of the same surface (#1447 popover-off-bottom, #1458 footer-scroll-reachability) fixed desktop / normal-viewport cases but assumed `100vh` matched the visible viewport. **Fix:** two-line change. (a) `frontend/src/pages/PrintersPage.tsx:5443` switches `maxHeight: calc(100vh - …)` → `calc(100dvh - …)` so the dynamic viewport units shrink with iOS toolbars. (b) `frontend/src/utils/popoverPosition.ts:53` defaults `viewportHeight` from `window.visualViewport?.height ?? window.innerHeight` so the flip-above decision also uses the actually-visible area; the existing optional override still wins (tests keep their explicit viewport values). Result: when the iOS toolbar is up, either the popover flips above the trigger earlier (visualViewport too short for below-placement), or the body scrolls within a capped maxHeight and the `shrink-0` footer stays pinned to the visible bottom — the Start Drying button is reachable in both cases. **Tests:** 3 new in `popoverPosition.test.ts::computePopoverPosition (#1669)` — flip-above triggers when visualViewport.height (700) is shorter than innerHeight (800) and the trigger position would only overflow under the visual viewport; falls back to innerHeight when visualViewport is unavailable (older WebViews / jsdom); an explicit `viewportHeight` override still wins over a configured visualViewport.height (test-injection contract). 8 pre-existing tests stay green. dvh / svh browser support — Safari 15.4+, Chrome 108+, Firefox 101+ — comfortably covers iPhone 17 Safari and every supported desktop browser; no behavioural change on non-iOS.
- **Print queue `require_previous_success` no longer cascades indefinitely after a user-cancelled print (#1667, fully root-caused by @599w6c26tv-droid)** — Reporter on an A1 saw a single user-cancelled print block 18 downstream queue items over 3 days, all marked `skipped` with `Previous print failed or was aborted`. They captured the override log line proving Bambuddy correctly detects the cancellation (`Overriding status 'failed' -> 'cancelled' for printer 1 (print was stopped from queue by user)`) but the scheduler's gate ignored the override; they dumped the affected DB rows confirming the cascade pattern; and they reproduced from clean state in one cycle. Two distinct bugs in one function (`PrintScheduler._check_previous_success` in `services/print_scheduler.py`): **(a)** The lookback query `.in_(["completed", "failed", "skipped", "aborted"])` excluded `cancelled`, so a user cancellation was never found as the most-recent predecessor — the query walked past it to whatever real outcome existed before. **(b)** The same lookback INCLUDED `skipped`, so once one item got skipped (under any reason — bug-cascaded or genuinely failure-gated) it became the next item's "failed predecessor" and the cascade compounded. **Fix:** swap the lookback list to `["completed", "failed", "cancelled", "aborted"]` and broaden the success check to `prev_item.status in ("completed", "cancelled")`. A user cancellation is a deliberate action — treating it as neutral matches the user's intent ("I'm done with that one, move on"); `skipped` is excluded so the query always walks back to the most recent REAL print attempt and `failed` / `aborted` still gate as before. **Conservative recovery migration**: a one-shot pass in `core/database.py::run_migrations` resets only the skipped items whose immediate real predecessor (by `completed_at` desc, excluding the skipped-cascade itself) was `cancelled` — same fingerprint as the bug, narrow enough not to disturb skipped items whose true predecessor was a real `failed` / `aborted` print. Items match on `status='skipped' AND error_message='Previous print failed or was aborted'` and the predecessor check via correlated subquery; logged per-row at INFO so operators can audit the count after upgrade. Portable across SQLite and Postgres. Idempotent (post-reset rows no longer match). **Tests**: 10 new behaviour tests in `test_check_previous_success.py` pin every status/cascade combination — bug A (cancelled → True), bug B (skipped walked past), the reporter's exact failed→cancelled→skipped→skipped→pending cascade, regression guards on real failed / aborted still gating, edge cases (no-predecessor, only-skipped history, completed-then-failed). 7 new tests in `test_cancellation_cascade_recovery_migration.py` pin the migration — skipped-after-cancelled resets, skipped-after-failed stays, skipped-after-aborted stays, different-error-message untouched, reporter's multi-item cascade resets all, idempotent on re-run, per-printer isolation. All green; full scheduler + migration test suite stays green.
- **Firmware-update check no longer 403s against Bambu Lab's Cloudflare-gated download page (#1666, reported by @arekm, with the working bypass demonstrated)** — Reporter on a fresh install hit `Could not reach Bambu Lab's firmware download page...` when checking firmware for an A1 Mini, and surfaced the diagnostic: `curl -H 'User-Agent: Bambuddy/1.0' https://bambulab.com/en/support/firmware-download/all` returns `HTTP 403 cf-mitigated=challenge` — Cloudflare upped the bot-protection on `bambulab.com` to a JA3 / TLS-fingerprint challenge. Plain Python TLS handshakes (httpx, requests, urllib) don't match Chrome's ClientHello bytes, so CF rejects before the request reaches the app layer. The `Accept` / `Accept-Language` header workaround we shipped for #1350 was below-HTTP and no longer enough. Existing users with a `build_id.json` on disk from a previous successful fetch kept working until Bambu rebuilt the page (every few weeks); fresh installs and wiped data dirs hit the wall immediately — exactly the reporter's path. **Fix: use `curl_cffi` for the two `bambulab.com` fetches only.** New dependency added to `requirements.txt`; `firmware_check.py` lazy-initialises a `curl_cffi.requests.AsyncSession(impersonate="chrome", ...)` for the `bambulab.com` calls (the index page that carries the Next.js `buildId`, and the per-model `_next/data/{buildId}/.../{api_key}.json` endpoint). Smoke-tested end-to-end against the live page: returns 200 OK + valid `buildId`, vs the reporter's 403. **Compliance framing matters here**: per the Bambu-compliance email from 2026-05-12, Bambuddy committed to "no falsified client identity." `curl_cffi`'s Chrome impersonation only governs TLS handshake bytes — the **HTTP-layer User-Agent is overridden back to `Bambuddy/1.0 (+https://github.com/maziggy/bambuddy)`** via the session's `headers=` parameter. Defensible read: TLS fingerprint matches Chrome (necessary because Python's TLS is the signal CF gates on), but every application-layer identity remains honestly Bambuddy. A new test (`test_bambulab_curl_cffi_session_keeps_honest_user_agent`) pins this — a future refactor that drops the `headers=` override would silently revert to curl_cffi's Chrome-default UA and break the compliance commitment; the test fails on any non-Bambuddy UA in the session. **Soft dependency**: if `curl_cffi` fails to import (rare platforms, alpine without wheels, etc.), the service logs a one-time warning at startup and falls back to httpx; wiki-based version detection continues to work for the badge, only the in-app firmware download URL stops resolving. New test `test_bambulab_get_falls_back_to_httpx_when_curl_cffi_missing` pins the fallback path. The wiki path (`wiki.bambulab.com`) and the CDN download path (`public-cdn.bblmw.com`) stay on httpx — neither sits behind the same JA3 gate. Three existing tests (`test_build_id_is_persisted_to_disk`, `test_build_id_falls_back_to_disk_on_403`, `test_download_page_unreachable_flag_set_on_403_json`, `test_download_page_retries_once_when_buildid_stale`) updated to mock `_bambulab_get` instead of the raw httpx client — a tighter mock target that's stable across the curl_cffi / httpx switch.
- **Background asyncio tasks no longer get garbage-collected mid-flight (#1648 follow-up)** — Support-bundle review under #1648 surfaced 94 `Task was destroyed but it is pending!` warnings in 8 days of v0.2.4.5. **Root cause:** asyncio holds only a weak reference to the result of `create_task` — any "fire and forget" call site that doesn't store the returned task lets the event loop GC the task before it finishes. The warning gives no traceback, so the originating exception (if any) vanishes silently into a support bundle that looks scary but isn't actionable. **Fix:** new `backend/app/core/tasks.py::spawn_background_task(coro, *, name=None)` helper that stores a strong reference in a module-level set, attaches a done-callback that auto-removes on completion AND surfaces any uncaught exception via the logger with the originating traceback, and accepts a `name=` argument so a leak source is traceable in `/tracebacks` and the log line. **Migration:** the 16 truly-orphan `asyncio.create_task(...)` call sites — across `main.py` (8), `printers.py`, `print_queue.py`, `firmware_update.py`, `archive.py`, `print_scheduler.py`, `library.py`, `smart_plugs.py`, `discovery.py`, `smart_plug_manager.py` (3), and `background_dispatch.py` (2 lambda-wrapped) — switched to `spawn_background_task`. Other `create_task` sites already kept strong refs via `self._tasks.append(...)`, `self._x_task = ...`, or local `await`/`gather` and stay unchanged. **Tests:** 5 unit cases in `test_tasks.py` pin the contract — strong-ref retention through completion, set-shrinkage after done, uncaught exception logged at WARNING with `exc_info`, cancellation does not log (a shutting-down service is not an error), and named tasks propagate `name=`. Net result: support bundles stop showing the opaque GC warnings, and any silent fire-and-forget exception now reaches the logger with a traceback attached. Severity reclassification of unrelated noise (the 791 "Failed to get cloud preset 400" spam, the `bambu_cloud.Login failed` mis-ERRORs, etc.) is a separate follow-up.
- **Home-page filament assign no longer leaves the slicer unaware of PFCN cloud presets (#1648, reported by @ferch-G)** — Reporter on an H2D with a Polymaker spool noticed that assigning the spool from the Dashboard left the slicer's filament dropdown showing "unknown" / generic, but clicking Configure right after made the slicer recognize it correctly — "Configure" felt like a mandatory follow-up step rather than a refinement. **Root cause: PFCN-prefix cloud preset IDs were never handled.** Bambu's cloud uses three preset-ID shapes: `GFS…` (official Bambu), `PFUS…` (cloud user-created), and `PFCN…` (cloud shared / partner-uploaded — e.g. Polymaker's "(Custom)" Bambu Lab H2D variants like the reporter's `PFCN80e80c1f79db85`). `apply_spool_to_slot_via_mqtt` only routed `GFS` and `PFUS` through the cloud-detail lookup that extracts the real `filament_id`. PFCN slipped past the cloud-lookup branch, fell into the local-preset `int()` parse path, raised ValueError, dropped into `normalize_slicer_filament` which returns any `P`-prefix unchanged, and the raw PFCN landed in `tray_info_idx` — which the printer's calibration table can't index, so the slicer rendered "unknown". The Configure modal rescued each assign because it does its own `getCloudSettingDetail` lookup and writes the resolved `filament_id`. **Fix:** extend the cloud-detail-lookup branch (`inventory.py:129`) and the discard safety net (`inventory.py:223`) to include `PFCN` alongside `GFS`/`PFUS`. After the fix, the same three paths work: cloud-authenticated → real `filament_id` from `detail["filament_id"]` ships as `tray_info_idx` (Polymaker PLA Matte resolves to `GFL05`); cloud unavailable → raw PFCN discarded, slot reuses an existing valid P-prefix preset if material matches; nothing else available → falls through to the spool's generic material id (`PLA → GFL99`). Source comment now lists all three cloud-ID shapes so the next time Bambu invents a new prefix (PFXX, PFYY, …) the maintainer doesn't have to re-derive the structure from a bug report. **Tests:** 3 new integration cases in `test_inventory_assign.py::TestAssignSpoolPfcnCloudPreset` — falls back to generic when cloud unavailable (and pins the no-PFCN-leak invariant), reuses an existing slot's valid P-prefix preset when material matches, and the happy-path cloud lookup that produces a resolved `filament_id` while preserving the original PFCN as `setting_id`. Existing 28 assign-flow tests stay green.
- **Bambu cloud A1 Mini filament / process profiles no longer hidden in AMS slot picker (#1649, root-caused by @technopaw)** — Reporter on an A1 Mini observed that the AMS slot Configure dropdown showed no Bambu / Generic filament profiles; only user-authored profiles surfaced. Mirror in the Profiles tab: filtering by "A1 Mini" left only A1 (non-mini) results. **Root cause: Bambu rolled out a profile rename mid-2026.** The `@BBL ` suffix on cloud profiles shifted from the long display form to a terse model code — `Bambu PLA Basic @BBL A1 Mini ...` is now `Bambu PLA Basic @BBL A1M ...` across 106 cloud profiles. User-authored profiles still use the long form (which is why the reporter's custom A1 Mini profile worked, and Bambu PLA Basic happened to render via the `localPreset` always-shown path). Bambuddy's filter compared the extracted token verbatim against the display name (`"A1M".toUpperCase() === "A1 MINI"` is false), so the rename silently stripped every newly-renamed profile from the picker. **Fix: centralized alias-aware match in `frontend/src/utils/slicerPrinterMatch.ts`.** New `PRINTER_MODEL_SUFFIX_ALIASES` table holds the bidirectional `A1 Mini` ⇄ `A1M` mapping (uppercase-normalised, narrow on purpose — wide-net aliasing like `X1` ⇄ `X1C` would silently group truly distinct printers); exported `matchesPrinterModelSuffix(presetSuffix, printerModel)` helper does the case-insensitive compare with alias fallback. Both consumer sites switched to the helper: `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.tsx:586,607` (the AMS slot picker, hit directly + reached from SpoolBuddy's AMS page via `mapModelCode(printer?.model)`), and `slicerPrinterMatch.ts:classifyByBambuName` (the SliceModal Process / Filament compatibility check). Backend `PRINTER_MODEL_MAP` also gains a `Bambu Lab A1M` → `A1 Mini` entry so server-side 3MF printer-model normalization stays consistent if a future 3MF embeds the short form. The structure stays open: when Bambu introduces the next rename, it's a single new row in the alias table — `/api/v1/cloud/settings` is the place to grep, called out in the source comment. **Tests**: 7 new unit cases in `slicerPrinterMatch.test.ts` pin the alias helper (canonical, case-insensitive both directions, A1M ↔ A1 Mini in both orientations, A1M does NOT collapse to A1, A1 does NOT collapse to A1 Mini, unrelated models reject) plus 3 integration cases in `presetCompatibility` (cloud filament `@BBL A1M` matches A1 Mini, cloud process `@BBL A1M` matches A1 Mini, `@BBL A1M` does NOT match A1). 2 new component-level cases in `ConfigureAmsSlotModal.test.tsx`: `@BBL A1M` cloud preset surfaces when picker is for A1 Mini (with `@BBL A1` correctly filtered out), and `@BBL X1C` stays filtered out when picker is for A1 Mini (sanity check against accidental widening). All existing 2062 vitest cases stay green.
- **VP Queue / Archive / Review: Bambu Studio 2.7.x stayed stuck at "Downloading" after Send (#1658, reported by @IndividualGhost1905)** — Reporter on Bambu Studio 2.7.1.57 + X1C reported that sending a model to a Queue-mode VP (with Auto-Dispatch off) left the slicer's send modal stuck at "Downloading" forever; clicking Delete on the queued item didn't release it, and even Auto-Dispatch ON + a successful real print didn't release it. Only toggling the VP off/on cleared the slicer. The deleted-from-queue framing is a red herring — the slicer was stuck *before* deletion, the user just noticed it most when they deleted. **Root cause: the #1280 fix assumed the wrong event order.** The original assumption was MQTT `project_file` → FTP upload → set `gcode_state=FINISH`, and the slicer's "Downloading" UI releases on FINISH. Bambu Studio 2.7.x flipped the Send sequence to FTP `verify_job` → FTP `.3mf` → MQTT `project_file`, so on_file_received's `set_gcode_state("FINISH", …)` fires *first*, then the synthetic `_send_print_response` ack runs and overwrites `_gcode_state` back to `"PREPARE"`. From that point the 1 Hz cached-as-base push stream carries PREPARE forever, the slicer waits for the FINISH transition it'll never see, and the modal sits stuck. **Auto-Dispatch ON is the same bug**: the real printer's gcode_state goes PREPARE → RUNNING → FINISH on its bridge, but `_send_status_report` overrides the cached push's `gcode_state` with the local `_gcode_state` (still PREPARE), so the real state changes never reach the slicer. The fix re-fires `set_gcode_state("FINISH", filename, prepare_percent="100")` from `on_print_command` 1.5 s after the synthetic ack, for every non-proxy mode (queue / archive / review). The 1.5 s window is long enough for the slicer's modal to see at least one PREPARE push on the 1 Hz cycle (so the transition reads as PREPARE → FINISH, matching what the slicer expects) and short enough that the modal feels responsive. Proxy mode is exempt — there the real printer drives the bridge state and a synthetic FINISH would clobber a real PREPARE/RUNNING transition. The scheduler cancels any in-flight timer when a new project_file lands so a slicer that retries doesn't end with two competing FINISH timers. **Tests**: 6 new cases in `test_virtual_printer.py` — schedules on archive (and by extension queue/review), proxy mode does NOT schedule, no-MQTT skip is silent, second `project_file` cancels the first timer, delayed run sets the expected `(state, filename, prepare_percent)` triple, empty filename does not schedule.
- **Finish photo no longer shows the bed already dropped (#1397, reported by @rtadams89, @Jeff-GebhartCA, @MA2ZAK)** — Bambu's end-gcode lowers the build plate as soon as the print completes. Bambuddy's existing finish-photo path captured a fresh camera frame at `gcode_state=FINISH`, by which time the bed was already at the bottom of the chamber — the photo showed the top of the print well below the camera's natural framing, badly framed and sometimes invisible. Earlier capture attempts (at `layer_num >= total_layer_num` while still RUNNING) hit motion-blur because the toolhead was still parking; capturing through the window kept the wrong frame because the latest was always ~2s before FINISH, mid-bed-drop. **The fix sources the photo from a brief Bambu timelapse Bambuddy records on every dispatched print instead.** Firmware stops timelapse recording AFTER the toolhead parks but BEFORE the bed-drop end-gcode runs, so the last frame frames the finished print correctly — verified on N=2 H2C prints by extracting the last frame of two real timelapses (`spoolbuddy_v2.1` and `case_SpoolBuddy`); both showed the print clearly with the toolhead parked off-frame upper-left and the bed at print height, no motion blur. The post-park-pre-drop window is at least ~2 seconds wide on both, so `-sseof -1.0` (seek to last second, skip the literal last frame) is safe against any encoder tail artifact. **Implementation: force-on at dispatch + cleanup after extraction.** `BackgroundDispatchService._resolve_effective_timelapse(db, archive, job)` reads the `capture_finish_photo` setting before each `start_print` call (reprint + library-file flows both wired) and, when the user did NOT opt in to timelapse for this print, overrides `timelapse=True` on the MQTT command + marks the new `PrintArchive.bambuddy_forced_timelapse` column True. User-opted-in timelapses pass through unchanged (no override needed). Migration adds the column branched on `is_sqlite()` for the boolean default (`DEFAULT 0` on SQLite, `DEFAULT FALSE` on Postgres — PG rejects `DEFAULT 0` for BOOLEAN). New module-level `extract_video_last_frame(video_path, output_path)` in `services/camera.py` runs a single `ffmpeg -sseof -1.0 -i -frames:v 1 -q:v 2 -update 1 ` subprocess — no full transcode, ~150ms wall time on the dev box. Bounded 15s subprocess timeout that kills the child on hang. Returns False (never raises) on missing ffmpeg / missing video / non-zero exit / timeout. `_capture_finish_photo_from_timelapse(archive_id, archive_dir)` polls `archive.timelapse_path` every 3s for up to 60s — `_scan_for_timelapse_with_retries` runs in parallel and writes that field when the FTP download finishes. When it lands and the file exists on disk, extract the last frame as `finish__.jpg`. `_background_finish_photo` now tries the timelapse path first when `timelapse_was_active=True` and no external camera is configured; the existing external-camera / buffered-live-frame / fresh-RTSP-capture chain stays in place as the fallback. **Post-extraction cleanup**: when `archive.bambuddy_forced_timelapse` is True, `_cleanup_forced_timelapse(archive_id, printer_id)` runs after the extractor (regardless of success — the user never asked for a timelapse file and we shouldn't leave debris even if ffmpeg failed): deletes the locally-attached file, clears `archive.timelapse_path`, then walks the four scanner directories (`/timelapse`, `/timelapse/video`, `/record`, `/recording`) trying FTP DELE against the original filename. Best-effort, never raises — a printer that's offline at cleanup time means one orphaned file on the SD card, not a broken Bambuddy flow. **Notification timing**: the photo-task wait_for budget bumps from 45s to 75s when a timelapse was active so the notification carries the correct bed-up photo instead of falling through to the live-cam grab on slow Wi-Fi links; ~30s of added notification latency at worst is the honest tradeoff. **Scope limitation, documented in the camera wiki**: only covers prints dispatched THROUGH Bambuddy (queue, reprint, print-now from File Manager). Prints started directly on the printer's touchscreen, via the Bambu Handy app, or via Bambu Studio's "Send" function bypass `background_dispatch.py`, so the force-on doesn't fire and the live-cam fallback (bed-down) still applies for those. Can add the mid-print `M981 S1 P20000` MQTT toggle in `on_print_start` later if anyone reports it for non-dispatched prints. External-camera users are unaffected throughout: their flow ignores the printer timelapse since external cams have their own framing and don't see one anyway. **Verified on H2C only** (core-XY); needs field verification on bed-slingers (A1, P1S) where the bed-drop kinematic geometry differs. Bed-slinger users invited to the test build to confirm. Setting description rewritten across all 11 locales to drop the "best quality when timelapse enabled" caveat (since Bambuddy now forces it) and call out the "kept-if-you-wanted-it, deleted-otherwise" behaviour. **Tests**: 6 in `test_extract_video_last_frame.py` cover the real ffmpeg happy path against a runtime-synthesised tiny MP4 (testsrc generator, ~3-5 KB, no committed binary fixture), missing source, empty source, ffmpeg-not-present (monkeypatched), nonzero-exit on garbage input, hung subprocess via patched-sleep-binary + tightened timeout. 4 in `test_finish_photo_from_timelapse.py` cover the polling helper with a patched-session fixture (no DB engine): timeout-without-landing, lands-and-extracts, lands-but-extraction-fails, file-materialises-mid-poll. Override + cleanup tests in `test_dispatch_force_timelapse.py` and `test_cleanup_forced_timelapse.py` pin: override fires only when `capture_finish_photo` enabled AND user-timelapse off; user-opted-in timelapse passes through unchanged; cleanup deletes local + clears `timelapse_path` + DELEs remote when forced; cleanup skips when not forced. **Round-2 fixes from field testing (Martin's H2D + X1C queue test)**: (a) the extractor's `-sseof -1.0` seek broke on small-print timelapses — Bambu records one frame per layer change, so a 16-layer cube produces a 0.625 s / 16-frame video and the 1-second seek-from-end went before the start of the file, ffmpeg silently returned frame 0 (empty bed at print start). Switched the extractor to `ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -update 1 -q:v 2 out.jpg` — writes every decoded frame to the same output file (overwriting), so the file left on disk is the last frame regardless of duration. Verified on Martin's actual X1C-2 timelapse: produces the finished red cube with toolhead parked upper-left. New `test_extracts_correctly_from_sub_second_video` regression test pins it against a 0.5 s synthetic MP4. (b) The dispatch-time override only wired into `background_dispatch.py` (Print Now / Reprint flows), but the print *queue* runs through a separate scheduler at `print_scheduler.py:_start_print` which calls `printer_manager.start_print` directly. Refactored the resolver to a module-level `resolve_effective_timelapse(db, archive, user_wanted_timelapse)` function and wired it into the scheduler's call site too. New `test_scheduler_force_timelapse_wiring.py` walks the scheduler's AST and asserts the `start_print(timelapse=...)` kwarg references `effective_timelapse` (not `item.timelapse`) — guards against future refactors silently dropping the override on the queue path.
- **Project edit modal couldn't be scrolled, so Save / Cancel were unreachable on short screens (#1642, reported by @klevin92)** — Reporter on a Pi-class display (1508 × 831) couldn't mark a project as Completed because the edit modal's height exceeded the viewport and there was no way to scroll: outer wrapper was `fixed inset-0 flex items-center justify-center p-4` (vertical-center) and the inner card had no `max-h` and no `overflow`. The top of the form went above the viewport and the bottom — including the Status dropdown the reporter was trying to use plus both action buttons — went below it. Workaround was a full page reload to drop the modal. Standard flex-modal-scroll fix: `max-h-[calc(100vh-2rem)]` + `flex flex-col` on the card (the `2rem` accounts for the outer `p-4`), a `flex-1 overflow-y-auto min-h-0` wrapper around the form fields, and the Cancel / Save buttons moved into a `flex-shrink-0` sibling with a `border-t` separator so they become a sticky footer that's always visible regardless of scroll position. The buttons stay inside the `
