Martino Ferrari 8073e7b3fd feat: the main window's skeleton is a UI file
src/ui/main-window.ui holds the window, its two panes, the plot column with the status line under it,
and the sidebar's scroller. What stays in code is what depends on the stream: the events pane, the two
plot areas, the sidebar's panels and the status popover, each put into a slot by id.

The header bar is deliberately not in the file. It is the window's own titlebar, every button on it is
wired to an action, and an AdwApplicationWindow refuses a titlebar outright -- a fatal Adwaita-ERROR
rather than a warning that leaves the window merely ugly -- so the window is a GtkApplicationWindow and
the header bar stays where it was.

gtk_paned_set_position() is the other thing that had to stay in code, and the reason is order rather
than shape: it clamps against its children *now*, so stating it before the sidebar's panels exist moved
the plot column by ~180 px.

The layout, events and box-zoom probes read what they read before this change, and the header reads
window_button_w=130 bar_w=756 as it always has -- checked by building the previous commit and running
the same probe against it, because the layout numbers in the notes turned out to be stale from an
earlier session. Five UI files now.

Martino Ferrari 68743a7d7f feat: the host form, and the help window, are UI files
src/ui/source-form.ui is the form a source is added or edited with: an AdwDialog of
AdwPreferencesGroup rows (AdwEntryRow, AdwSpinRow, AdwSwitchRow) with its action in the header bar,
where the label says which mode the form is in -- Connect for a new host, Save for an existing
configuration. The grid of labels and bare entries it replaces had its hints in placeholders, which
vanish as soon as there is a value; they are the groups' descriptions now.

src/ui/help.ui is the help window's chrome: an AdwWindow with a header bar and an
AdwNavigationSplitView whose sidebar is the page list. The rows stay in C++ because the fourteen
pages are data, not template.

Four UI files now, 653 lines of template that used to be widget construction. Two libadwaita traps
cost a run each and are in docs/claude/invariants-gtk-and-chrome.md: an AdwDialog has no content
property (its child is a plain <child>, unlike an AdwToolbarView), and AdwEntryRow has no subtitle
(it is an AdwPreferencesRow, not an AdwActionRow). The unused form_field() helper went with them.

Every probe reading is unchanged -- [sources] form:, [sources] edit form:, [help] -- which is what
refactoring a shape rather than a behaviour should look like.

Martino Ferrari 4c56172005 feat: the preferences are a UI file, applying as they change
src/ui/preferences.ui is an AdwPreferencesDialog whose rows are libadwaita's own -- AdwEntryRow,
AdwSpinRow, AdwSwitchRow, AdwComboRow, AdwButtonRow -- instead of a label and a bare GtkEntry in a
GtkBox. There is no Apply button: a row applies as it changes, which is what those widgets are
designed around, and [prefs-probe] reads the settings file back after every change.

The folder chooser is cancellable now, so a picker still open when the dialog closes cannot write
into a row that is gone; the cancellable is also how the probe takes the cancel path without a
mouse.

Two traps cost a run each and are recorded in docs/claude/invariants-gtk-and-chrome.md: an
AdwDialog is not a GtkWindow (it cannot parent a GtkFileDialog, and in floating mode it adds a
native surface to gtk_window_get_toplevels() that is neither a widget nor a window), and a .ui
that is not listed in the GResource is a Gtk-ERROR at runtime rather than a build failure -- which
is exactly what the probe opening every window is for.

Martino Ferrari 0e256764d5 udpscope: an oscilloscope view for a UDPStreamer source
GTK4 and libadwaita. It receives one UDP stream through the vendored
udpsclient, buffers it in a large ring, and draws it with the vendored
plotter: a trigger with a pre/post event window, a pause that freezes the
window, cursors, measurements, math channels in a node editor, an event cache,
named configurations, preferences, and an export of the visible window to
.npy/.csv. Waveform files can be opened and analysed in place.

The interface is two threads -- a producer that owns the socket and the GTK
main thread that owns every widget and the GL context -- sharing one model
under one mutex, with samples crossing through lock-free rings.

deps/plotter is a submodule pinned to the commit this tree builds against;
deps/udpsclient is vendored in place. docs/claude/ documents the rules that
cost a defect to learn, and SPECS.md is the requirement document.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 219ae91fd8 docs: a spec for the square wave's riser being drawn only sometimes
Two complaints, not one: the glitch is a row dropped before any style
knob is consulted, and the thinness is a choice udpscope made and never
revisited -- it asks deps/plotter for a trace thinner than the library's
own default.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 d5d1295b26 docs: a design for resequencing late packets into a reserved hole, and for relative timing
The two were asked for together and are one design: the packet counter is what
makes a hole addressable, so relative timing is the coordinate system in which
resequencing is arithmetic rather than inference.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 9aa1d80158 docs: an implementation plan for the three new scope features
Nine tasks with literal code: the mock's injected faults, the shared
EventDetector the trigger and the search both run, the four condition
shapes and their panel rows, the Welford statistics and what resets
them, the chunked buffer search, its marks, and the documentation.

Every probe's expected reading is written as a shape with the measured
figure left to be recorded from a run, never assumed.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 19aad492eb docs: the trigger is not persisted, so the condition is not either
The spec described the new condition fields as appended session keys. LayoutState
carries no trigger field at all -- the trigger is built from --holdoff and the
panel's defaults on every launch -- so there was nothing to append to. Persisting it
is a separate feature nobody asked for, and a session that silently restored an armed
pulse-width condition would surprise rather than help. The statistics toggle stays as
the one session key this design adds.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 6770c6a648 docs: a zero-width trigger band is refused, not degraded to an edge
The spec claimed a window condition with equal levels degrades to an edge trigger on
that level. It does not: the band test is a change of side, so equal levels make the
signal "inside" only on exact float equality and the condition silently never fires.
Special-casing the detector into an edge trigger would conflate two state machines
that answer different questions -- the divergence the shared evaluator exists to
prevent. The panel refuses the degenerate band instead.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 98be03e00d docs: three scope features are specified around one shared event condition
Qualified trigger conditions (pulse width with glitch as a comparison, window,
dropout), per-measurement statistics with a reset, and a search over the retained
ring. The first and third are the same question asked of live and of recorded data,
so they share one allocation-free EventDetector extracted out of TriggerEngine --
and the probe that proves the two paths agree on t0 is part of the scope.

Reference waveforms, PNG export, FFT and a byte-bounded event history are out, each
for a stated reason.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 0866b744ad docs: a plan for the node editor, so each defect ships with the probe that saw it
Nine tasks, each ending in a commit: the silent disarm in the port hit test,
the view transform, the drag-based wiring, wire deletion, the topological
re-sort that makes a backwards wire legal, the live validation line, the op
picker, tidy, and the docs with the full verification run.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 96ee35da25 docs: a design for a node editor whose wires can be drawn, deleted and navigated
The reported "cannot add edges" has a specific cause: the output port's hit
radius reaches past the box it belongs to, and the press handler re-derives the
owning node with a box test, so clicking the visible dot's outer half sets
pending_out to -1 and silently disarms. Edge deletion has no code path at all.

The design replaces the two-click protocol with a drag gesture, makes the list
order the editor's own invariant via a topological re-sort rather than a rule the
user must obey, adds a view transform with every hit test routed through its
inverse, and trades the modal alert on Apply for a live validation line. It also
records that the Cancel button still calls gtk_window_destroy -- the dangling
dialog pointer CLAUDE.md documents as fixed was only fixed on the Apply path.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 f2978fe742 fix: guard unset HOME in desktop-entry cmake script and correct plan verification
Two code-review findings:

1. Add a guard in cmake/install_desktop_entry.cmake that fails visibly when both
   XDG_DATA_HOME and HOME are unset or empty, preventing silent installation to
   the filesystem root in minimal CI sandboxes.

2. Replace the plan's tail-based verification with grep, because cmake's
   FATAL_ERROR message and ninja's "build stopped" lines push the actual
   rejection message out of the last four lines. The grep command reliably finds
   the expected "desktop-file-validate rejected" string.

Martino Ferrari 69eab02729 docs: the implementation plan for the app icon, AdwAboutDialog and desktop entry
Five tasks, each ending in a commit: the two SVGs with build-time xmllint
validation, the window icon plus the registration move and the app icons:
assertion, the AdwAboutDialog migration, the opt-in desktop-entry target, and
the documentation with the full regression run.

Written assertion-first, since the project has no unit suite: each task's first
step adds the probe or dump line and watches it read MISSING. Both negative
tests are real -- one breaks an SVG comment and requires the build to fail, the
other breaks Type= and requires the target to FATAL_ERROR.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 e17c650ea7 docs: correct the spec's icon verification to a build-time check
The spec asserted that a paintable's intrinsic size reads 0x0 for an SVG
librsvg refuses. It does not: gtk_icon_theme_lookup_icon() never returns NULL
and always reports the requested size, and a valid icon, a malformed one and an
absent name all snapshot to the same texture node. GMarkup accepts the double
hyphen, and gdk-pixbuf goes through glycin here and refuses our own icons.

So the malformed file is caught by preprocess="xml-stripblanks", which runs
xmllint during glib-compile-resources and fails the build with file, line and
column. The runtime line keeps its format but asserts only what it can: the
name resolves, the resource is present, and the root element declares the size.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 7816f11c81 docs: spec for the app icon, AdwAboutDialog and desktop entry
Records the decisions taken before design — the application ID stays
org.udpscope.app, the icon is the instrument face, and the desktop entry is an
opt-in CMake target rather than an install() rule — along with the HIG
constraints the artwork is built to and the two silent failures the new
verification line has to tell apart.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 82f91d00c0 docs: implementation plan for the help/shortcuts/status work

ctrl/alt axis-restricted zoom, 14 help pages, the accelerator table and
overview window, the app key controller, and the two-tier status bar.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 6b148f82a6 docs: design for the About/shortcuts/help windows and a two-tier status bar
Four features the user asked for together: an About dialog (version, build
timestamp, settings path), a shortcut overview covering the keyboard and the
mouse, a fourteen-page help window, and a status bar split into a short glance
line plus a details popover so the plot's own row stops being crowded.

Records one deviation from the approved design: keyboard zoom-x/zoom-y use
ctrl/alt rather than shift, because `+` *is* shift+`=` on the common layouts and
a bare zoom-in therefore already arrives with Shift set.

Martino Ferrari a066d48a3a plan: source chooser at startup
Seven tasks, each ending in a probe assertion rather than a unit test -- this
project's regression net is the headless probes, not a suite. The spec's
multicast round trip is split across three tasks so nothing in the plan needs a
group this machine can join.

Martino FerrariandClaude Opus 4.6 78065715b6 design: source chooser at startup
Launched with no --server, udpscope silently connects to 127.0.0.1:8000 and
offers no way to pick a source or see which ones it already knows. The design
is a pre-flight dialog: it runs before ScopeModel exists, so a cancel costs no
buffer and no socket and the existing pipeline is untouched.

The list is built from the stored session files, filtered to those naming at
least one signal -- a development machine accumulates one file per probe run on
a throwaway port, 140 of them here -- and the session format gains multicast and
interface keys so a row can reconnect exactly.
