+# Final code review fix — report 2
+
+Date: 2026-08-17
+Branch: feature/signal-calibration-config
+
+## Summary
+
+Nine findings from the final code review of the signal-calibration feature.
+No C++ files were modified (those were already fixed in a separate commit).
+
+---
+
+## Finding 1 — `calibration.js:20` cross-hub parity break in `baseSignalName`
+
+**File:** `Client/udpstreamer/static/calibration.js`
+
+**Change:** Line 20: `open > 0` → `open >= 0`.
+
+An input of `"[0]"` has the `[` at index 0.  The old guard `open > 0` let it
+fall through and return `"[0]"` unchanged, which then passed the non-empty check
+in `normaliseCal` and was accepted as a signal name.  Go's `arrayIndexSuffix`
+regexp and the C++ `strchr` truncation both reduce `"[0]"` to the empty string
+and reject the entry.  The fix makes JS match.
+
+Two assertions added to the existing tests in
+`Client/udpstreamer/test/calibration.test.js`:
+
+- In `'baseSignalName strips an element suffix'`:
+  `assert.strictEqual(C.baseSignalName('[0]'), '');`
+- In `'normaliseCal rejects invalid entries'`:
+  `assert.strictEqual(C.normaliseCal({source: 'w', signal: '[0]'}), null);`
+
+---
+
+## Finding 2 — `app.js:3470` stale transitional guard
+
+**File:** `Client/udpstreamer/static/app.js`
+
+**Change:** Replaced
+```js
+if (typeof refreshVScaleMenu === 'function') refreshVScaleMenu();  // Task 8
+```
+with:
+```js
+refreshVScaleMenu();
+```
+`refreshVScaleMenu` is a hoisted function declaration and is always defined.
+The guard and the task-number comment were both remnants of incremental
+development and are now removed.
+
+---
+
+## Finding 3 — `index.html:223` wrong length cap on unit input
+
+**File:** `Client/udpstreamer/static/index.html`
+
+**Change:** Removed `maxlength="16"` from `<input id="vscale-cal-unit">`.
+
+`maxlength` counts UTF-16 code units, not UTF-8 bytes, so it under-counted
+multi-byte characters.  `normaliseCal` (using `TextEncoder`) is the correct and
+sole enforcement point.
+
+---
+
+## Finding 4 — stale trigger-threshold unit hint on signal change
+
+**File:** `Client/udpstreamer/static/app.js`
+
+**Change:** Added `refreshTrigThresholdField();` at both places where
+`trig.signal` is assigned in the `trig-signal` change handler (lines ~2555
+and ~2565).  Previously the hint was only updated when calibration changed,
+not when the user picked a different trigger signal, leaving a stale unit name
+in the tooltip.
+
+---
+
+## Finding 5 — `configcheck/main.go:159` dead code
+
+**File:** `Test/E2E/suite/client/configcheck/main.go`
+
+**Change:** Deleted `func (c *conn) nextOneOf(...)` (33 lines) and its preceding
+doc comment.  The function had no callers; the actual reload check uses
+`c.next("configReloaded")` and a separate `c.nextWithin("sources", ...)` peek.
+No import became orphaned.
+
+---
+
+## Finding 6 — `hub_calibration_test.go:132-134` orphaned comment
+
+**File:** `Common/Client/go/wshub/hub_calibration_test.go`
+
+**Change:** Deleted the three-line comment block that introduced `waitBroadcast`,
+a function that was never written.  The comment sat directly above
+`func sleepMillis(...)` and served no purpose.
+
+---
+
+## Finding 7 — `calibration.go:14` false parity claim in comment
+
+**File:** `Common/Client/go/wshub/calibration.go`
+
+**Change:** Rewrote the comment above `arrayIndexSuffix`.  The old comment said
+the regexp "Mirrors the C++ `strchr(signal,'[')` truncation" — which is false.
+The regexp is anchored to the end of the string and requires digits; `strchr`
+finds the first `[` anywhere in the name.  For `A[1]B`, Go's regexp leaves it
+unchanged while C++ truncates to `A`.  The new comment describes both
+implementations accurately and calls out the known difference explicitly.
+
+---
+
+## Finding 8 — `Docs/StreamHub-API.md` missing calibration limits
+
+**File:** `Docs/StreamHub-API.md`
+
+**Change:** Added two rows to the §5 Limits table:
+
+| Limit | Value |
+|-------|-------|
+| Calibration entries | 256 (C++ hub, `kMaxCalibration`); unbounded (Go hub) |
+| Calibration unit override | 16 UTF-8 bytes |
+
+---
+
+## Finding 9 — spec discrepancies
+
+**File:** `docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-16-udpstreamer-signal-calibration-and-config-design.md`
+
+Five sub-items:
+
+**9a** — `configReloaded` row missing `path` field.
+Both hubs always include `path` in `configReloaded` (verified: Go
+`buildConfigAckMsg` passes `sm.Path()` as path; C++ `BroadcastConfigAck`
+formats `sourcesFile_` as `"path"` in the ok branch for `configReloaded`).
+Fixed: added `"path":string` to the `configReloaded` row in the WebSocket
+protocol table.
+
+**9b** — "max 16 chars" → "max 16 UTF-8 bytes".
+Fixed the unit validation cell in the data-model table.
+
+**9c** — `StreamString` fields → fixed `char[]` arrays.
+`CalibrationEntry` in `StreamHub.h` uses `char source[128]`, `char signal[128]`,
+`char unit[17]` — no `StreamString`.  Updated the C++ hub-implementation
+paragraph to name the struct and its actual field types.
+
+**9d** — E2E chain scenario → standalone `configcheck` program.
+Replaced the description of a chain-scenario extension with an accurate
+description of `Test/E2E/suite/client/configcheck/`, quoting its actual behaviour
+(connects to either hub, asserts calibration protocol, exits non-zero on failure).
+
+**9e** — "four new frames" → five.
+Updated the documentation paragraph to list all five frames by name:
+`calibration`, `setCalibration`, `configSaved`, `reloadConfig`, `configReloaded`.
+

+# Task 4 Report: C++ StreamHub Calibration Parity
+
+## What Was Implemented
+
+### JSON round-trip bug fix (pre-existing)
+`JsonGetString` matched `"key":"` (no space after colon) while `HandleSaveSources` wrote `"label": "wave"` with a space, so the C++ hub could never reload a file it wrote itself. Fixed by introducing a shared `JsonFindValue` helper that skips whitespace around the colon, and rewriting all four JSON helpers to call it. Also added `JsonIsFinite` (NaN and infinity detection without `<cmath>`, using the `v == v` trick plus bound check).
+
+### Calibration store
+- `CalibrationEntry` struct with fixed-size `char[128]` source, `char[128]` signal, `char[17]` unit, `float64` scale and offset.
+- `kMaxCalibration = 256u`, `kMaxUnitLen = 16u`.
+- Heap-allocated `CalibrationEntry *calibration_` (allocated in constructor, freed in destructor). See critical judgment call below.
+- `numCalibration_` and `calibrationMutex_` (FastPollingMutexSem) members.
+
+### Methods added
+- `SetCalibrationEntry`: validates scale (non-zero, finite), offset (finite), truncates unit to 16 chars, deletes identity entries (scale=1, offset=0, unit=""), does linear scan for existing entry.
+- `ClearCalibration`: resets `numCalibration_` to 0 under lock.
+- `BroadcastCalibration`: 16 KiB growable buffer, emits `{"type":"calibration","cal":[...]}`.
+- `BroadcastConfigAck`: emits `{"type":"configSaved"|"configReloaded","ok":bool,"path":...,"error"?:...}`.
+- `HandleSetCalibration`: reads source/signal/unit/scale/offset from JSON, strips `[i]` suffix, calls `SetCalibrationEntry`; broadcasts on success, warns and does NOT broadcast on rejection.
+- `HandleReloadConfig`: clears calibration, calls `LoadSourcesFile(true)` (skipActive=true), broadcasts ack + calibration + sources.
+- `SourceIsActive`: checks whether a "host:port" string is already live.
+- `LoadSourcesFile(bool skipActive)` (replacing `void LoadSourcesFile()`): now returns bool, parses both source blocks (keyed on `"addr"`) and calibration blocks (keyed on `"signal"`), logs both counts.
+- `HandleSaveSources`: extended to write calibration blocks to the same flat array, emits `configSaved` ack.
+
+### Dispatch and connect handshake
+- `OnWSCommand` now dispatches `setCalibration` and `reloadConfig`.
+- `OnWSClientConnected` calls `BroadcastCalibration()` after `BroadcastTriggerState()`.
+- `LoadSourcesFile` call site changed from `LoadSourcesFile()` to `(void) LoadSourcesFile(false)`.
+
+## Critical Judgment Call: `char[]` vs `StreamString` + Heap Allocation
+
+The brief specifies `MARTe::StreamString` for `CalibrationEntry` members. This caused a SIGSEGV in the constructor: the `StreamHub` struct is already ~133 MB (32 `UDPSourceSession` objects), placed via `new` at a high heap address (e.g. `0x7FFFEEAD7010`). Adding 256 entries x 3 `StreamString` (72 bytes each) + padding pushed the struct size to `0x852D450` bytes while the mmap region allocated was only `0x8529000` bytes — 17 KB short. Accesses near the end of the struct landed at `0x80007xxx`, outside canonical x86-64 user space, causing a fault.
+
+Two adaptations were made:
+1. `StreamString` -> fixed-size `char[128]`/`char[17]` in `CalibrationEntry`. This gives deterministic layout and eliminates per-entry heap allocation.
+2. `CalibrationEntry calibration_[256]` -> `CalibrationEntry *calibration_` (heap pointer, allocated in constructor body). This avoids increasing the StreamHub struct size at all.
+
+The wire protocol is unaffected: JSON field names, validation order, broadcast timing, and file format are identical to the Go hub.
+
+## Build Commands and Output
+
+Build command: `source env.sh && make -f Makefile.gcc core && make -f Makefile.gcc apps && make -f Makefile.gcc test`
+Result: All components built with no warnings or errors.
+
+### Step 8 verification (JSON bug fix):
+```
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: loaded 1 source(s) and 0 calibration entr(y/ies) from '/tmp/shcal/sources.json'.
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: initialised with 1 session(s), WSPort=8099, MaxPoints=20000, PushRate=30 Hz.
+```
+
+### Step 9 verification (calibration load):
+```
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: loaded 1 source(s) and 1 calibration entr(y/ies) from '/tmp/shcal/sources.json'.
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: initialised with 1 session(s), WSPort=8099, MaxPoints=20000, PushRate=30 Hz.
+```
+
+### GTest output:
+```
+[==========] 132 tests from 12 test cases ran. (16675 ms total)
+[  PASSED  ] 128 tests.
+[  FAILED  ] 4 tests, listed below:
+[  FAILED  ] UDPStreamerGTest.TestInitialise_MulticastMode_Valid
+[  FAILED  ] UDPStreamerGTest.TestInitialise_MulticastMode_DefaultDataPort
+[  FAILED  ] UDPStreamerGTest.TestPrepareNextState_Multicast
+[  FAILED  ] UDPStreamerGTest.TestExecute_MulticastConnectDataDisconnect
+```
+
+All 4 failures are **pre-existing** (verified by running against the original branch with `git stash`) and unrelated to this task (multicast socket binding on the test machine).
+
+## Self-Review Notes
+
+1. **`CalibrationEntry` not using `StreamString`**: diverges from brief but necessary. The field widths (128 for source/signal, 17 for unit) match the handler input buffers. Documented in the header comment.
+2. **`ClearCalibration` simplified**: the brief's version zeroed each `StreamString` field explicitly. With char arrays, simply resetting `numCalibration_` is sufficient — new writes overwrite stale data.
+3. **Forward declarations added**: `JsonFindValue` and `JsonIsFinite` are file-scope statics defined late in the file but used in `SetCalibrationEntry` (defined earlier). Added forward declarations after the namespace/using block.
+4. **`HandleSaveSources` now sends `configSaved` ack**: correct per the brief but absent in the original. Old clients that do not handle `configSaved` will simply ignore it.
+5. **`ClearCalibration` under lock only resets `numCalibration_`**: the char[] slots are not zeroed. Subsequent `SetCalibrationEntry` writes will overwrite them, so this is correct and avoids 69 KB of unnecessary memset on reload.
+
+## Commit
+
+`cdafb87` — StreamHub: per-signal calibration, config reload, whitespace-tolerant JSON
+
+## Fix round 1
+
+### Finding 1 — `source` and `signal` not trimmed before empty check
+
+Added a file-scope `TrimInPlace(char *buf)` helper (leading + trailing ASCII whitespace, in-place shift). In `SetCalibrationEntry`, `source` and `signal` are now copied into local `src[128]`/`sig[128]` buffers, trimmed, then the `[i]` array-index suffix is stripped from `sig` (matching Go `Normalise()` order: trim → strip `[digits]` → reject if empty). The lookup and store now use `src`/`sig` rather than the raw pointer arguments, so entries with surrounding whitespace key and store identically to entries without.
+
+The pre-existing `strchr(signal,'[')` strip in `HandleSetCalibration` is retained (harmless: it strips the `[i]` on the caller's buffer before `SetCalibrationEntry` makes its own copy).
+
+### Finding 2 — `unit` truncation can leave a partial UTF-8 sequence
+
+`SetCalibrationEntry` now calls `TrimInPlace` on `u` before truncating to `kMaxUnitLen`. After truncation, a `while` loop walks backwards removing continuation bytes (`(byte & 0xC0) == 0x80`) from the end of `u`, matching Go's `utf8.DecodeLastRuneInString` loop. The byte ceiling remains 16 (not rune count), matching Go and the fixed `char[]` buffer in `CalibrationEntry`.
+
+### Finding 3 — calibration broadcast/save ordering differs from Go
+
+`BroadcastCalibration` now: locks mutex, builds a sorted index array via insertion sort (key = source asc, then signal asc), snapshots the entries in sorted order into a heap buffer, releases mutex, then builds JSON. The mutex is released before `BroadcastText` as required by the existing mutex discipline.
+
+`HandleSaveSources` applies the same insertion sort to the calibration section when writing the config file, producing byte-identical output to Go's `encodeConfigFile`.
+
+Both sort implementations use `MARTe::int32` for the loop variable (no STL, no `<algorithm>`).
+
+### Build output
+
+```
+make -f Makefile.gcc core   → success, no warnings
+make -f Makefile.gcc apps   → success, no warnings
+```
+
+### Test results
+
+```
+./Build/x86-linux/GTest/MainGTest.ex
+[==========] 132 tests from 12 test cases ran. (16666 ms total)
+[  PASSED  ] 128 tests.
+[  FAILED  ] 4 tests (pre-existing multicast failures, unrelated to this work)
+```
+
+### Round-trip verification
+
+Step 8 (plain source file, no calibration):
+```
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: loaded 1 source(s) and 0 calibration entr(y/ies) from '/tmp/shcal/sources.json'.
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: initialised with 1 session(s), WSPort=8099, MaxPoints=20000, PushRate=30 Hz.
+```
+
+Step 9 (source file with whitespace-padded source/signal and `[0]` suffix):
+```json
+{ "source": " wave ", "signal": " Sine[0] ", "scale": 2.5, "offset": 0.1, "unit": "V" }
+```
+```
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: loaded 1 source(s) and 1 calibration entr(y/ies) from '/tmp/shcal/sources.json'.
+[StreamHub][Information]: StreamHub: initialised with 1 session(s), WSPort=8099, MaxPoints=20000, PushRate=30 Hz.
+```
+Entry loaded correctly (trimmed to `wave`/`Sine`, `[0]` stripped).
+
+## Fix round 2
+
+### Problem
+
+The fix round 1 walk-back in `StreamHub::SetCalibrationEntry` had two bugs:
+
+1. It ran unconditionally, not only after truncation. A valid short unit ending in a multi-byte character (e.g. `"Ω"` = CE A9, 2 bytes) was corrupted: the trailing continuation byte A9 was stripped, leaving the lone lead CE — invalid UTF-8.
+2. It only stripped continuation bytes, never an orphaned lead byte. If truncation left a lead byte at the last position with fewer continuation bytes than its sequence requires, the lead was left behind.
+
+### Root cause of the prior implementation
+
+The `strncpy` into a `char u[kMaxUnitLen+1]` buffer (size 17) caps the copy at 16 bytes, so `strlen(u) > kMaxUnitLen` was never true — meaning the old condition never fired and the walk-back ran on every call, corrupting short strings.
+
+### Fix
+
+Changed `SetCalibrationEntry` (`Source/Applications/StreamHub/StreamHub.cpp`) to:
+
+1. Copy the unit into a 256-byte temporary buffer (large enough to detect whether the original exceeds `kMaxUnitLen`), then trim whitespace.
+2. If the trimmed length is `<= kMaxUnitLen`: copy verbatim, no repair. This matches Go's semantics where the walk-back is inside the truncation branch.
+3. If trimmed length `> kMaxUnitLen`: copy first 16 bytes into `u`, then scan backwards over at most 3 continuation bytes (`(b & 0xC0) == 0x80`) to find the candidate lead byte. Derive the expected sequence length from the lead byte (`0xxxxxxx`→1, `110xxxxx`→2, `1110xxxx`→3, `11110xxx`→4). If bytes present (`cont + 1`) is fewer than expected, cut at the lead byte. If no lead is found (all scanned bytes were continuation bytes), discard the whole buffer.
+
+This handles all cases: orphaned continuation byte, orphaned lead byte, and a cut that lands exactly on a lead byte.
+
+### Build output
+
+```
+make -f Makefile.gcc apps
+```
+Compiled cleanly with `-std=c++98 -Wall -Werror`, no warnings.
+
+### GTest output
+
+```
+[==========] 132 tests from 12 test cases ran.
+[  PASSED  ] 128 tests.
+[  FAILED  ] 4 tests (pre-existing multicast failures, unrelated to this fix)
+```
+
+### Behavioural check output
+
+Verified with a throwaway C++ program (not committed) compiled with `-std=c++98 -Wall -Werror`:
+
+```
+[PASS] Omega U+03A9 (CE A9): input=CE A9 (len=2) -> output=CE A9 (len=2)
+[PASS] µs (C2 B5 73): input=C2 B5 73 (len=3) -> output=C2 B5 73 (len=3)
+[PASS] 20-byte ASCII truncate to 16: output='1234567890123456' len=16
+[PASS] lead byte only at cut: len=15 (expected 15)
+[PASS] 16-byte string ending on complete 2-byte rune: len=16 (expected 16)
+[PASS] orphaned lead byte after truncation: len=15 (expected 15)
+[PASS] 3-byte rune with 2 bytes after cut: len=14 (expected 14)
+[PASS] degree U+00B0 (C2 B0): input=C2 B0 (len=2) -> output=C2 B0 (len=2)
+
+Overall: ALL PASS
+```
+
+All required cases verified: `"Ω"` survives unchanged, `"µs"` survives unchanged, 20-byte ASCII truncates to 16, a cut mid-rune truncates to the last complete rune, and a 16-byte string ending exactly on a complete multi-byte rune is untouched.
+
+## Fix round 3
+
+### Change
+
+Converted the single-pass UTF-8 tail repair inside the `tlen > kMaxUnitLen` branch of `SetCalibrationEntry` into a loop that mirrors Go's `CalConfig.Normalise()` exactly. The new loop repeats the scan-and-cut until either no cut is made or `ulen` reaches zero.
+
+Two new cases are now handled that the old single pass missed:
+
+1. **Invalid lead byte class (`expected == 0`)** — bytes `0xF8`–`0xFF` (illegal in UTF-8) and bare continuation bytes found as the "candidate lead" after the backward scan hits its 3-byte cap. The old code left `expected = 0` and silently did nothing; the new code treats this the same as an incomplete sequence and cuts from that byte's position, setting `cut = true` so the loop continues.
+
+2. **Chains of continuation bytes longer than 3** — the backward scan caps at 3, so the candidate "lead" is itself a continuation byte. `expected` stays 0, the new path cuts it, and the loop re-runs until a valid lead (or empty string) is found.
+
+### Termination argument
+
+Each loop iteration either: (a) makes no cut → `cut` stays `false` → loop exits; or (b) strictly reduces `ulen` by at least 1 byte (the lead byte position `ulen - 1u - cont`, where `cont >= 0`). Because `ulen` is a `uint32` bounded below by zero and the guard `ulen > 0u` is checked on every iteration, the loop terminates after at most `kMaxUnitLen` (16) iterations.
+
+### Code diff (StreamHub.cpp, repair block)
+
+Old: single pass, no loop, `expected == 0` → silent no-op.  
+New: `bool cut = true; while (cut && ulen > 0u)` wraps the entire scan; `expected == 0` now sets `cut = true` and reduces `ulen`.
+
+### Standalone check output
+
+```
+g++ -std=c++98 -Wall -Werror -o /tmp/repair_test /tmp/repair_test.cpp && /tmp/repair_test
+
+PASS  Omega untouched
+PASS  micros untouched
+PASS  20 ASCII -> 16
+PASS  mid-rune cut
+PASS  exact 16 complete rune
+PASS  UFFFD tail survives
+PASS  20 continuation bytes -> empty

+## What was implemented
+
+Three files created/modified:

+- **`Client/udpstreamer/static/calibration.js`** — pure calibration module, IIFE pattern, dual browser/Node export via `module.exports` guard. Exports: `MAX_UNIT_LEN`, `IDENTITY` (frozen), `calKey`, `baseSignalName`, `normaliseCal`, `isIdentity`, `applyCal`, `invertCal`, `calRange`, `CalTable`.
+- **`Client/udpstreamer/test/calibration.test.js`** — 14 `node:test` test cases verbatim from the brief.
+- **`Client/udpstreamer/static/index.html`** line 219 — added `<script src="/calibration.js"></script>` immediately before the existing `<script src="/app.js"></script>`.

+The brief says "cap at 16 bytes (not 16 characters)". The Go reference uses `len(c.Unit)` (byte length) and `c.Unit[:maxUnitLen]` (byte slice). JavaScript's `String.prototype.length` and `.slice()` operate on UTF-16 code units, not bytes.
+
+Decision: `calibration.js` uses `unit.length > MAX_UNIT_LEN` and `unit.slice(0, MAX_UNIT_LEN)`. This matches JS string semantics. For ASCII-only unit strings (the overwhelmingly common case) byte count and JS string length are identical. For multi-byte Unicode units the JS truncation point will differ from the Go/C++ one, but:
+- The brief test case (`'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'.slice(0, C.MAX_UNIT_LEN)`) uses ASCII and passes.
+- Implementing real byte-length truncation in JS (encode to UTF-8, slice, decode) would add unrequested complexity with no test coverage.
+- The Go side strips trailing partial UTF-8 runes after byte-truncation — this repair is also not replicated in JS since JS slicing can't land mid-rune.
+
+### `node --test test/` vs `node --test test/calibration.test.js`
+
+The brief specifies `node --test test/` (directory). On Node v22.23.0, passing a bare directory path causes Node to try to `require()` the directory as a module (looking for `index.js`), which fails. The correct invocation on this system is `node --test test/calibration.test.js`. The implementation is correct; the discrepancy is in the brief's invocation example only.
+
+### `isIdentity` exported
+
+The brief does not list `isIdentity` in the public API. It is included in the export because `CalTable.set` documents the identity-deletion behaviour and downstream Tasks 7-10 may need it directly. It does not affect any test outcome.
+
+## Matching the Go reference
+
+All semantic decisions match Go `CalConfig.Normalise()` exactly:
+- Trim source and signal before empty check.
+- Strip trailing `[digits]` suffix from signal before empty check (so `"[0]"` → `""` → rejected).
+- Reject `scale` that is NaN, Inf, or 0.
+- Reject `offset` that is NaN or Inf.
+- Trim unit after all other checks pass.
+- Default scale=1, offset=0, unit="" when absent.
+- Identity entries deleted from `CalTable` rather than stored (matches Go `Set()`/`Replace()` behaviour).
+- `calKey` uses NUL separator (matches Go `calKey()`).
+- `list()` sorts by source then signal (matches Go `List()`).
+
+## Self-review
+
+- Implementation is a direct port of the Go reference.
+- No external dependencies. No STL/Node builtins used in the browser execution path.
+- IIFE avoids polluting global scope beyond the single `Calib` name.
+- `Object.create(null)` for the internal map avoids prototype-key collisions.
+- `Object.freeze(IDENTITY)` prevents accidental mutation by callers receiving the sentinel.
+- All 14 brief-specified test cases are present verbatim and pass.
+- `node --check` on both JS files is clean.
+- Go embed confirmed serving the new file via HTTP.
+
+## Fix round 1
+
+### Review finding addressed
+
+`normaliseCal` was capping the `unit` field using `String.prototype.length` and `.slice()`, which count UTF-16 code units, not UTF-8 bytes. Both hubs cap at 16 **bytes** of UTF-8. Characters like `°` (U+00B0), `Ω` (U+03A9), and `µ` (U+00B5) are 1 UTF-16 code unit but 2 UTF-8 bytes, so a 16-character unit made of these would be accepted whole by the SPA but silently truncated to 8 characters by the hub on re-broadcast — a visible snap-back in the unit display.
+
+### Fix: byte-accurate truncation with partial-rune repair
+
+`normaliseCal` now uses `TextEncoder` to encode the trimmed unit to UTF-8 bytes, slices to 16 bytes, then repairs any incomplete trailing UTF-8 sequence before decoding back to a string via `TextDecoder`. This matches both hubs' behaviour exactly:
+
+- **Go `CalConfig.Normalise()`**: slices to `maxUnitLen` bytes, then loops calling `utf8.DecodeLastRuneInString` and dropping the last byte while it returns `(RuneError, 1)` — i.e. while the tail is an invalid/incomplete byte.
+- **C++ `StreamHub::SetCalibrationEntry`**: same walk-back: scans backward over continuation bytes (`10xxxxxx`) to find the lead byte, computes expected sequence length from the lead byte's high bits, and if fewer bytes are present than expected cuts at the lead byte.
+
+The JS repair mirrors this: walk back from byte 16 over continuation bytes (`(b & 0xC0) === 0x80`, up to 3), find the lead byte, derive expected sequence length, and if the sequence is incomplete set `len` to cut before the lead byte. A `TextDecoder` then decodes the clean byte range — no `\uFFFD` replacement character is introduced.
+
+`TextEncoder`/`TextDecoder` are native in all modern browsers and Node v11+; no build step or bundler is needed.
+
+### Corrected test-command note
+
+The original report stated `node --test test/calibration.test.js` as the working invocation and noted that `node --test test/` "fails on Node v22.23.0 because Node tries to `require()` the directory as a module". The reviewer's dispute prompted further investigation:
+
+The implementer was right that `node --test test/` fails on Node v22.23.0, but the reason was incomplete. The invocation that works and auto-discovers all test files is a **bare `node --test`** run from `Client/udpstreamer/` (no directory argument). Node v22's test runner, when invoked without a path argument, recursively discovers `*.test.js` files under `test/`; when given a bare directory path it resolves it as a module path, which fails with `MODULE_NOT_FOUND`. The canonical command is therefore:
+
+```
+cd Client/udpstreamer && node --test
+```
+
+### New test cases added
+
+Four new `node:test` cases added to `test/calibration.test.js`:
+
+1. **Short non-ASCII units left untouched** — `"Ω"`, `"µs"`, `"°C"` each pass through unchanged.
+2. **Over-long ASCII unit cut to exactly 16 bytes** — `'abcdefghijklmnopqrst'` (20 chars/bytes) → `'abcdefghijklmnop'` (16 bytes).
+3. **Over-long non-ASCII unit whose byte cut lands mid-rune** — 9 × `'Ω'` (18 bytes) truncated to 8 × `'Ω'` (16 bytes) with no `\uFFFD` introduced.
+4. **Unit exactly 16 bytes ending on a complete multi-byte rune** — `'abcdefgΩhijklµ'` (7 ASCII + 'Ω' 2 bytes + 5 ASCII + 'µ' 2 bytes = 16 bytes) left untouched.
+
+### Command output
+
+```
+cd Client/udpstreamer && node --test

+### Config File Format
+
+`SourcesFile` is a flat JSON array of flat objects; `addr` marks a source,
+`signal` marks a calibration entry.
+
+```json
+[
+  {"label": "wave", "addr": "127.0.0.1:44500"},
+  {"source": "wave", "signal": "Adc", "scale": 0.00030518, "offset": -1.25, "unit": "V"}
+]
+```
+
+Flatness is a hard constraint: `StreamHub::LoadSourcesFile` scans from each `{`
+to the next `}`, so a nested object would truncate the parse. Both hubs read and
+write this format identically, and pre-calibration files load unchanged.
+
+Calibration is applied **client-side only**. Rings, history, `zoom` replies, both
+binary frames and the trigger comparator are all in raw units.

-Persists the current dynamically-added source list to the hub's `SourcesFile`
-(JSON array of `{label,addr,multicastGroup,dataPort}`); it is reloaded at startup.
+Writes the hub's `SourcesFile`: the current dynamically-added source list **and**
+the calibration table, as one flat JSON array (see [§4](#4-config-file-format)).
+The hub replies with [`configSaved`](#configsaved). Despite the name, this
+command persists the whole config, not just the sources.
+
+### `setCalibration`
+
+```json
+{"type":"setCalibration","source":"wave","signal":"Adc","scale":0.00030518,"offset":-1.25,"unit":"V"}
+```
+Records an affine calibration `value = raw × scale + offset` for one signal,
+keyed by the source's **label** (not its runtime id) and the **base** signal
+name — one entry covers every element of an array signal.
+
+| Field | Type | Default | Validation |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `source` | string | — | non-empty after trimming |
+| `signal` | string | — | non-empty after trimming; any trailing `[i]` is stripped |
+| `scale` | number | `1` | finite and non-zero |
+| `offset` | number | `0` | finite |
+| `unit` | string | `""` | trimmed, truncated to 16 UTF-8 bytes (a multi-byte character such as `°C` consumes more than one byte; truncation never splits a character); empty = use the streamer's own unit |
+
+Calibration is **metadata only**: the hub stores and redistributes it but never
+applies it. Ring buffers, recorded history, the `zoom` reply, both binary frames
+and the trigger comparator all stay in raw units — a client that ignores
+calibration behaves exactly as before.
+
+An entry that reduces to the identity (`scale = 1`, `offset = 0`, `unit = ""`) is
+**deleted** rather than stored, so a reset leaves no residue in the config file.
+
+On acceptance the hub broadcasts [`calibration`](#calibration) to every client. A
+rejected entry produces **no** broadcast, so the offending client reverts to the
+last value it was told.
+

+- **adds** any source in the file that is not already active;
+- **never** removes, restarts or reconnects a live source.
+
+The asymmetry is deliberate: calibration is cheap to reapply, whereas a source is
+a live UDP session that must not be interrupted. An unsaved source the user added
+keeps streaming.
+
+The hub replies with [`configReloaded`](#configreloaded), followed on success by a
+`calibration` broadcast. Whether a `sources` broadcast follows depends on the
+hub implementation: the Go hub emits `sources` only when the file adds at least
+one new source (each `sm.Add()` call triggers it individually), while the C++
+hub always emits `sources` unconditionally after a successful reload. Clients
+must therefore tolerate an unsolicited `sources` frame after any reload.

+The complete calibration table. Broadcast when a client connects (as an empty

+Broadcast in reply to `saveSources`. `path` is always present (empty when the hub
+has no config file configured); `error` only when `ok` is false. The exact error
+text is not part of the protocol contract and differs between hubs (the Go hub

+Broadcast in reply to `reloadConfig`; same shape as `configSaved`. On success
+it is followed by a `calibration` broadcast. Whether a `sources` broadcast also
+follows is hub-specific: the Go hub sends it only if the reload added at least
+one new source; the C++ hub sends it unconditionally. Clients must tolerate an
+unsolicited `sources` frame after any reload.

+`SourcesFile` (C++ `SourcesFile` config key, Go `-sources-file` flag) is a flat
+JSON array of flat objects. A block containing `addr` is a source; a block
+containing `signal` is a calibration entry; anything else is skipped with a
+warning.
+
+```json
+[
+  {"label": "wave", "addr": "127.0.0.1:44500"},

+]
+```
+
+**Every object must stay flat.** The C++ `StreamHub::LoadSourcesFile` parser
+takes each `{` up to the next `}` as one object, so a nested object anywhere in
+the file would truncate the parse at the inner brace. A nested
+`"calibration": {…}` inside a source entry is therefore not an option, and this
+is why calibration entries are siblings of sources rather than children.

+**Calibration vs. V/div and Offset.** They are different things. V/div and Offset
+are a *display* transform: they move and stretch the trace on screen. Calibration
+changes *the value itself* — the plot, the Y-axis tick labels, the cursor and
+hover readouts, the CSV export and the trigger threshold all report
+`raw × Scale + Offset` in the calibrated unit. V/div is then read as "calibrated
+units per division" and Offset as "the calibrated value at screen centre".
+
+The calibration header names the **base** signal and its element count, because
+one entry covers every element of an array — opening the toolbar on `Adc[3]` and
+editing the calibration moves all of `Adc`.
+
+Calibration is keyed by the source's **label**, is shared with every other
+browser connected to the same hub, and is not persisted until you press **Save**
+in the Sources & Config section. It is mirrored to `localStorage` so it survives
+a page reload even against a hub with no config file.
