rUv 2b8a7cc458 feat: happiness scoring pipeline + ESP32 swarm with Cognitum Seed (#285)
* feat: happiness scoring pipeline with ESP32 swarm + Cognitum Seed coordinator

ADR-065: Hotel guest happiness scoring from WiFi CSI physiological proxies.
ADR-066: ESP32 swarm with Cognitum Seed as coordinator for multi-zone analytics.

Firmware:
- swarm_bridge.c/h: FreeRTOS task on Core 0, HTTP client with Bearer auth,
  registers with Seed, sends heartbeats (30s) and happiness vectors (5s)
- nvs_config: seed_url, seed_token, zone_name, swarm intervals
- provision.py: --seed-url, --seed-token, --zone CLI args
- esp32-hello-world: capability discovery firmware for 4MB ESP32-S3 variant

WASM edge modules:
- exo_happiness_score.rs: 8-dim happiness vector from gait speed, stride
  regularity, movement fluidity, breathing calm, posture, dwell time
  (events 690-694, 11 tests, ESP32-optimized buffers + event decimation)
- ghost_hunter.rs standalone binary: 5.7 KB WASM, feature-gated default pipeline

RuView Live:
- --mode happiness dashboard with bar visualization
- --seed flag for Cognitum Seed bridge (urllib, background POST)
- HappinessScorer + SeedBridge classes (stdlib only, no deps)

Examples:
- seed_query.py: CLI tool (status, search, witness, monitor, report)
- provision_swarm.sh: batch provisioning for multi-node deployment
- happiness_vector_schema.json: 8-dim vector format documentation

Verified live: ESP32 on COM5 (4MB flash) registered with Seed at 10.1.10.236,
vectors flowing, witness chain growing (epoch 455, chain 1108).

* ci: raise firmware binary size gate to 1100 KB for HTTP client stack

The swarm bridge (ADR-066) adds esp_http_client for Seed communication,
which pulls in the HTTP/TLS stack (~150 KB). Binary grew from ~978 KB to
~1077 KB. Raise the gate from 950 KB to 1100 KB. Still fits comfortably
in both 4MB (1856 KB OTA slot, 43% free) and 8MB flash variants.

Architecture Decision Records

This folder contains 44 Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that document every significant technical choice in the RuView / WiFi-DensePose project.

Why ADRs?

Building a system that turns WiFi signals into human pose estimation involves hundreds of non-obvious decisions: which signal processing algorithms to use, how to bridge ESP32 firmware to a Rust pipeline, whether to run inference on-device or on a server, how to handle multi-person separation with limited subcarriers.

ADRs capture the context, options considered, decision made, and consequences for each of these choices. They serve three purposes:

  1. Institutional memory — Six months from now, anyone (human or AI) can read why we chose IIR bandpass filters over FIR for vital sign extraction, not just see the code.

  2. AI-assisted development — When an AI agent works on this codebase, ADRs give it the constraints and rationale it needs to make changes that align with the existing architecture. Without them, AI-generated code tends to drift — reinventing patterns that already exist, contradicting earlier decisions, or optimizing for the wrong tradeoffs.

  3. Review checkpoints — Each ADR is a reviewable artifact. When a proposed change touches the architecture, the ADR forces the author to articulate tradeoffs before writing code, not after.

ADRs and Domain-Driven Design

The project uses Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to organize code into bounded contexts — each with its own language, types, and responsibilities. ADRs and DDD work together:

  • ADRs define boundaries: ADR-029 (RuvSense) established multistatic sensing as a separate bounded context from single-node CSI. ADR-042 (CHCI) defined a new aggregate root for coherent channel imaging.
  • DDD models define the language: The RuvSense domain model defines terms like "coherence gate", "dwell time", and "TDM slot" that ADRs reference precisely.
  • Together they prevent drift: An AI agent reading ADR-039 knows that edge processing tiers are configured via NVS keys, not compile-time flags — because the ADR says so. The DDD model tells it which aggregate owns that configuration.

How ADRs are structured

Each ADR follows a consistent format:

  • Context — What problem or gap prompted this decision
  • Decision — What we chose to do and how
  • Consequences — What improved, what got harder, and what risks remain
  • References — Related ADRs, papers, and code paths

Statuses: Proposed (under discussion), Accepted (approved and/or implemented), Superseded (replaced by a later ADR).
