jpmschweitzerandClaude Fable 5 42b988b7ef Add face design: ASCII expressions + matrix rain simulator, wait cues, fresh latency numbers
- sim/face/index.html: browser simulator of the 800x800 round panel with
  six states (idle/listening/pensive/effort/speaking/error), state-driven
  rain density, blink/talk/thought animations, idle clock
- effort state gets hard-required wait cues: orbiting bezel arc, elapsed
  counter, max rain (Tatlock turns run 10-25s)
- rain driven by setInterval, not rAF: renders under the screenshot
  tool's --virtual-time-budget and mirrors LVGL lv_timer
- architecture.md: Face design contract (state table, protocol mapping,
  LVGL port notes) + latency table updated to GPU-era benchmarks
  (Steward ~6s warm, full flow 11-25s; old CPU-era figures retired)

## What this project is
DeskLock is the living-room visual/audio endpoint for **Tatlock**, the homelab butler
(`/mnt/media/Projects/tatlock`, API at `http://tatlock.schweitz.internal:8000`). Two halves,
one repo:
- `firmware/` — ESP-IDF (C, LVGL 9) app for the Waveshare ESP32-P4-WIFI6-Touch-LCD-3.4C
(3.4" round 800×800 touch display, dual mics + ES7210 AEC, ES8311 codec + speaker).
- `gateway/` — Python FastAPI container on tower-of-joy orchestrating STT → chat
(Tatlock `/v1/chat/completions`) → TTS. Listens on port **8600**. STT/TTS models live
in a shared **Speaches** container (proposed port 8601, OpenAI-format API), not in the
gateway image; `stt.py`/`tts.py` are pluggable backends (`speaches` default,
`embedded` fallback for dev). See docs/architecture.md — the scaffold currently
implements only `embedded`.
The device and gateway speak a WebSocket protocol defined in `docs/architecture.md`.
**That doc is the contract** — update it in the same change as any protocol edit on
either side.
The face (black screen, ASCII glyph expressions, matrix rain as activity signal) is
designed in `sim/face/index.html` — the design source of truth — and specified in the
"Face design" section of `docs/architecture.md`. Change the sim and the doc together;
the LVGL implementation follows them. Verify sim changes visually with
`~/bin/claude-screenshot` (note: the tool uses `--virtual-time-budget`, which starves
`requestAnimationFrame` — drive sim animation with `setInterval`, which also mirrors
LVGL timers).
## Hard rules
- **Keep the firmware thin.** No STT, no TTS, no conversation logic on the device.
If a feature needs intelligence, it goes in the gateway or in Tatlock itself.
- **Never modify Tatlock from this repo.** It is a separate project with its own repo.
DeskLock consumes its public API only.
- **Secrets** (Wi-Fi credentials, any future API keys) never go in source. Firmware
gets them via a gitignored `firmware/secrets.h` (see AGENTS notes below) or NVS;
the gateway via environment variables (`DESKLOCK_*`).
## Firmware (`firmware/`)
- Toolchain: **ESP-IDF ≥ 5.4** (not Arduino, not PlatformIO). Target `esp32p4`.
- BSP: [`waveshare/esp32_p4_wifi6_touch_lcd_xc`](https://components.espressif.com/components/waveshare/esp32_p4_wifi6_touch_lcd_xc)
from the ESP Component Registry (pulled automatically via `main/idf_component.yml`).
- Reference implementations: [waveshareteam/ESP32-P4-WIFI6-Touch-LCD-XC](https://github.com/waveshareteam/ESP32-P4-WIFI6-Touch-LCD-XC)
`examples/esp-idf/` — notably `08_lvgl_demo_v9` (display), `06_I2SCodec` (audio),
`04_wifistation` (Wi-Fi via ESP-Hosted). When wiring a new peripheral, check the
official example first; do not guess pin mappings.
- ⚠️ **Unverified scaffold**: the BSP API calls in `desklock_main.c` and the
`sdkconfig.defaults` values were written before the first successful build. Validate
against the official examples on first bring-up, then delete this warning.
```bash
# One-time: install ESP-IDF (not yet installed on tower-of-joy)
git clone -b v5.5 --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git ~/esp-idf
~/esp-idf/install.sh esp32p4
# Every shell:
source ~/esp-idf/export.sh
# Build / flash / monitor (device is on USB-C; check `ls /dev/ttyACM*`)
cd firmware
idf.py set-target esp32p4 # once
idf.py build
idf.py -p /dev/ttyACM0 flash monitor # Ctrl+] exits monitor
```
Flashing requires the `dialout` group (or run with sudo once and fix the group). If the
device doesn't enumerate, hold BOOT while pressing RESET to enter download mode.
## Gateway (`gateway/`)
```bash
cd gateway
make setup # venv + dev deps (no ML models)
make setup-speech # additionally install faster-whisper + piper
make run # uvicorn on :8600 with reload
make test # pytest
make lint # ruff check + format check
make typecheck # mypy
```
- Config via `DESKLOCK_*` env vars — see `src/desklock_gateway/config.py` for the schema
and defaults.
- `stt.py` / `tts.py` defer their heavy imports so the app boots without the `speech`
extra — keep it that way so protocol tests stay fast.
- Deployment: Docker image built from `gateway/Dockerfile`, deployed like other
tower-of-joy stacks (see `/mnt/media/Projects/system-admin-toj/containers/`). Register
the service + port in `CONTAINERS.md` when it first deploys.
## Homelab context
- This server **is** tower-of-joy; the device, gateway, and Tatlock all share the LAN.
- Use `tatlock.schweitz.internal:8000` (direct, no SSO) — the public
`tatlock.schweitz.net` route sits behind Authentik and is not for machine-to-machine
traffic.
- Git remote: `git.schweitz.net` (Gitea).
