- net_guard_tick now detects status-vs-event divergence. If s_up is
true but WiFi.status() says otherwise (rare: driver wedge, silent
RF failure), force DOWN state and schedule reconnect. Uses 0xFF
disconnect reason so the event log distinguishes this path.
- Forward-declare DeviceConfig in net_guard.h so consumers that don't
call net_guard_start don't transitively pull config.h.
loop() no longer blocks for 5s after a disconnect; reconnect is
scheduled from the WiFi event handler with exponential backoff.
Buffered reports flush on every clean UP transition.
Mutex take in event_log_write and event_log_read_recent switched
from portMAX_DELAY to pdMS_TO_TICKS(50) with skip-on-timeout. Prevents
the high-priority WiFi event task from stalling on NVS writes; diag
loss under contention is preferable to dropped WiFi events.
- Seed s_up from WiFi.status() in net_guard_start so the first
STA_GOT_IP (fired during setup's busy-wait, before onEvent was
registered) is not missed — prevents a reconnect flap on every boot.
- Drop WiFi.disconnect() from net_guard_tick; WiFi.begin() alone
re-associates cleanly and avoids a spurious STA_DISCONNECTED that
was double-logging EVT_WIFI_DOWN on every retry.
- Re-check s_up after the millis() timing gate to close the
GOT_IP-vs-tick race.
- Document the volatile-only shared-state contract.
net_guard registers WiFi.onEvent() so disconnects are handled
immediately instead of polled every 1s. Backoff 1s->2s->4s->...->60s cap.
Every up/down transition is logged to the event log with the disconnect
reason code, so field failures are diagnosable.
Exercises the slot-scan logic in event_log_init(): after a simulated
reboot (RAM state cleared, NVS slots preserved) the module must
resume with the correct head/cnt so newest-first read order is
unchanged and subsequent writes continue the seq monotonically.
Adds native-only event_log_test_simulate_reboot() helper. Lifts the
slot-scan loop out of the #ifdef ARDUINO guard so the native stub
exercises the same recovery path as production; the platform-specific
NVS setup remains guarded.
- Remove monotonic counter writes to NVS (stop burning flash on every
event). Derive head and cnt by scanning slots on boot.
- Widen seq to uint32 so slot scan works across multi-year lifetimes.
- Add FreeRTOS mutex around write/read so WiFi event handlers can
safely call event_log_write from another task.
- Check Preferences.begin() return; disable logging if NVS unavailable.
- Extract NTP_SYNC_THRESHOLD constant; drop misleading native uptime.
- Add tests for empty read, max_entries truncation, real-path hash.
Persistent 32-slot ring buffer of tagged diagnostic events (boot, wifi
up/down, http ok/fail, heartbeat miss, reboot). Used to diagnose field
failures post-hoc via the heartbeat payload, without needing serial
access. Native-native stub lets policy be unit-tested.
Replace per-track line-crossing counter with a single event state machine
gated by foreground pixel count (ENTER=250, EXIT=150) and finalized by
quiet-exit or timeout. Direction inferred from centroid excursion
(up_score vs down_score) on quiet-exit fires, and from net displacement
(last_c vs first_c) on timeout fires.
Tuning reflects bench data at the intended 7' overhead mount: walkers
produce smaller centroid excursions than originally modelled, so
EXTENT gates, MIN_TRAJ, MAX_FRAMES and REFRACTORY were all relaxed from
their initial guesses. Constants and rationale live in firmware/lib/cv/cv.h.
Bench results (8 isolated walks, 4 entries + 4 exits):
* Event detection: 8/8 (100%)
* Aggregate entries+exits split: 4+4 (matches)
* Per-walk direction labelling: 4/8 (~50%)
Document explicitly that per-walk direction is unreliable at this mount
and that downstream analytics should trust only gross traffic
(entries + exits). Recovering direction would require a physical mount
change or a richer signal; both are out of scope for v1.
Tooling:
* tools/replay_logs.py — replay event state machine against captured
[F] diagnostic lines, for offline tuning without flash-test loops.
* firmware/src/main_capture.cpp + tools/capture_frames.py +
tools/replay_frames.py — raw-frame capture firmware and Python port
of the detector, kept in tree for future iteration even though the
TimerCamera-F serial driver stripped specific byte ranges in testing
and log-based replay became the working path.

A single person walking under the overhead camera was generating both an
entry and an exit within a few seconds — the line-crossing logic treated
a blob's traversal into one side of the frame and out the other as two
separate events whenever the track spawned near the line, oscillated
against shadows, or churned at creation.
Replaced line-crossing semantics with directional traversal:
- Each track records spawn_y at creation and a counted flag.
- An event fires only if the track is not yet counted, spawned firm on
one side of the line (|spawn_y - line_y| > CV_TRAVERSAL_MARGIN_PX),
and is now firm on the opposite side. Direction of travel determines
entry vs exit. The track is then flagged counted — one trip, one count.
- Cooldown remains as a secondary safety net.
main.cpp: single/double LED pulse on entry/exit detections. Saves and
restores the current LED state so upload (yellow-on) and no-WiFi
indicators aren't clobbered.
Tests updated to walk blobs beyond the margin and register two new
cases: wobble-at-line doesn't count, and a reversed full traversal
doesn't double-count on the same track.

When a blob briefly drops below CV_MIN_BLOB_PX, its track is killed and respawns,
causing the same person to generate multiple counts per visit (~50/min observed
in field). Add a per-direction cooldown (default 5 frames ≈ 0.8s @ 5 fps) that
drops subsequent entries (or exits) within the window of the last counted one.
Entry and exit cooldowns are tracked independently.
Fixed at compile time for now; exposing as a server-push tunable is deferred
until the server-push-config branch lands. See docs/server-prompt-crossing-
cooldown.md for the server-side coordination notes.

loopTask: cv_init() created a CVState{} temporary (9KB background
array) on the stack — fixed by initializing members directly.
cam task: cv_process() had uint8_t fg[CV_PIXELS] (9KB) as a local
variable — made static, matching the existing fg_copy fix.
cam task stack bumped from 4096 to 8192 for headroom.
Also: switch to 4MB OTA partition table (TimerCamera-F has 4MB flash,
not 8MB), add CONFIG_ARDUINO_LOOP_STACK_SIZE=16384 build flag,
upload_speed=115200 and --no-stub for reliable CH340 flashing.

- hmac_sign now takes method+path instead of device_id; builds message as
method\npath\ntimestamp\nhex(sha256(body)) per server verify_device_hmac
- reporter: header renamed X-HMAC-Signature → X-Signature; passes "POST"+path
- test vector regenerated against new message format; timestamp-diff test updated
- .size() → .length() throughout (Arduino String has no size())

Add BFS flood-fill blob extraction, centroid finding, and nearest-neighbour track matching/spawning inside cv_process. Add test verifying a new blob spawns a track.
