* docs(adr-117): seed branch — ADR-117 pip-modernization spec + soul-signature research bundle
Two artifacts landing together on this new branch as the prerequisite
documentation for the v2.0.0 Python wheel modernization work:
1. **docs/adr/ADR-117-pip-wifi-densepose-modernization.md** (644 lines)
— Plan to bring the 2025-published `wifi-densepose` PyPI package
(last release v1.1.0, 2025-06-07, 11.5 months out of sync) up to
the current Rust v2/ workspace SOTA. Recommends PyO3 + maturin
with abi3-py310 (one binary covers Python 3.10–3.13 per OS/arch),
first-wheel scope = core + vitals + signal crates (~5 MB), v1.99.0
tombstone + 90-day un-yank window for v1.1.0, v2.0.0 hard break.
Open questions catalogued; phases P1–P6+ laid out with concrete
acceptance criteria.
2. **docs/research/soul/** (5 files, ~1,450 lines) — Soul Signature
research spec: 7-channel electromagnetic biometric fingerprint
(AETHER 128-dim + cardiac HR/HRV + cardiac waveform morphology +
respiratory pattern + gait timing + skeletal proportions +
subcarrier reflection profile), fused into one RVF graph file.
Includes 60s scanning protocol, 5-layer security model,
threat-model + mitigations, references to existing ADRs (014,
021, 024, 027, 030, 039, 079, 106, 108, 109, 110, 115). Marked
"Research Specification (Pre-Implementation)". Explicit "what
this is NOT" disclaimers preempt pseudoscience drift; every
discriminative-power claim either cites a measurement or is
marked "open research; baseline TBD".
Branch off main at HEAD; ready for /loop 10m implementation
iterations.

* feat(adr-117/p1): scaffold python/ workspace — PyO3 + maturin + smoke tests (refs #785)
ADR-117 P1 — the python/ directory is now a working maturin-buildable
crate that produces the v2.x replacement for the legacy pure-Python
wifi-densepose==1.1.0 PyPI wheel.
## What lands
- `python/Cargo.toml` — PyO3 0.22 with `extension-module` + `abi3-py310`
(one binary covers Python 3.10–3.13 per OS/arch — keeps the
cibuildwheel matrix to 5 wheels per release, not 20). Depends on
`wifi-densepose-core` from the existing v2/ workspace via relative
path.
- `python/pyproject.toml` — maturin>=1.7 build backend with
`python-source = "python"` and `module-name = "wifi_densepose._native"`
so the compiled module loads as an internal underscore-private
submodule of the user-facing `wifi_densepose` package. PEP 621
metadata + classifiers + project URLs. Optional-deps:
`wifi-densepose[client]` for the P4 WS/MQTT pure-Python layer,
`wifi-densepose[dev]` for the test toolchain (pytest, ruff, mypy).
- `python/src/lib.rs` — minimal `#[pymodule] wifi_densepose_native`
exporting `__rust_version__`, `__rust_build_tag__`,
`__build_features__`, and a `hello()` smoke function. P2 will land
the core type bindings here.
- `python/wifi_densepose/__init__.py` — pure-Python facade re-exporting
the compiled module's symbols under their stable user-facing names.
Docstring teaches the v1→v2 migration story up-front.
- `python/wifi_densepose/py.typed` — PEP 561 marker so `mypy --strict`
in user code treats the wheel as fully typed (real stubs land in P2).
- `python/tests/test_smoke.py` — 6 P1 acceptance tests:
1. package imports without error
2. version string is PEP 440-compliant
3. `__rust_version__` is reachable from Python (the diagnostic
surface ADR-117 §5.2 promised)
4. `__build_features__` lists `p1-scaffold` marker
5. `wifi_densepose.hello()` returns "ok" (FFI round-trip)
6. `wifi_densepose._native` is reachable but the leading underscore
conveys "private; users should import the parent package"
- `python/README.md` — phase ledger, local build instructions
(`maturin develop`), layout diagram.
## What's deferred to P2+
- Core type bindings (`CsiFrame`, `Keypoint`, `PoseEstimate`) — P2
- Vitals + signal DSP bindings + witness v2 — P3
- Pure-Python WS/MQTT client layer (`wifi_densepose[client]`) — P4
- cibuildwheel + PyPI publish — P5
- v1.99.0 tombstone — concurrent with P5
The new `python/` crate is intentionally OUTSIDE the v2/ Cargo
workspace — it has its own Cargo.toml with `[package]` not
`[workspace.package]` inheritance — to keep maturin's `python-source`
+ `module-name` config self-contained and to avoid forcing every
`cargo test --workspace` invocation in v2/ to compile pyo3.
Refs ADR-117 §5 (Detailed design) and §6 (Phased migration).
Refs #785 (tracking issue).
Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>
* fix(adr-117/p1): standalone Cargo.toml + python-source=. + #[pyo3(name=_native)] (P1 GREEN)
Three fixes to make maturin develop actually work locally:
1. `python/Cargo.toml` removed `*.workspace = true` inheritance —
the python/ crate is intentionally outside the v2/ workspace
(ADR-117 §5.2) so it needs every `[package]` field local.
2. `python/pyproject.toml` `python-source = "python"` was wrong
because pyproject.toml lives at python/ — maturin was looking for
python/python/. Changed to `python-source = "."` so the
`wifi_densepose/` package directory sibling-to-pyproject is found.
3. `python/src/lib.rs` `#[pymodule] fn wifi_densepose_native` →
`#[pymodule] #[pyo3(name = "_native")] fn wifi_densepose_native`.
PyO3 generates `PyInit__native` from the pyo3-name attribute, which
must match the `module-name` in pyproject.toml's [tool.maturin]
block ("wifi_densepose._native"). Without this attribute the wheel
builds but `import wifi_densepose._native` fails with
ModuleNotFoundError.

P1 closed. Moving to P2 (core type bindings).
Refs #785, ADR-117 §6.
Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>
* feat(adr-117/p2): Keypoint + KeypointType bindings — 23 new tests (29/29 GREEN)
Lands the first chunk of P2: PyO3 bindings for `Keypoint` and
`KeypointType` from `wifi_densepose_core`. Bound types surface to
Python as `wifi_densepose.Keypoint` / `wifi_densepose.KeypointType`.
## Design choices that affect the API surface
1. **`Confidence` is NOT bound as a separate class.** Users hate
wrapping a float in a constructor. Python-side, confidence is just
a `float in [0.0, 1.0]`; the binding validates on construction
(`ValueError` for out-of-range, matching the Rust core error).
2. **`KeypointType` is a `#[pyclass(eq, eq_int, hash, frozen)]` enum**
— hashable so users can drop it into dicts/sets (the most common
pattern in pose-analysis notebooks: `keypoints_by_type[k.type] = k`).
3. **`Keypoint.__init__` keyword-only `z`** so 2D users don't have to
write `None` and 3D users get a clear named arg:
`Keypoint(KeypointType.LeftWrist, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, z=0.1)`.
4. **`Keypoint` is `#[pyclass(frozen)]`** — no in-place mutation. The
Rust core type is immutable through Copy + Hash + Eq, and exposing
setters from Python would create a copy-vs-reference inconsistency
between languages.
## Files
- `python/src/bindings/keypoint.rs` — 220 lines of `#[pymethods]`
wrappers + Rust↔Python enum round-trip
- `python/src/lib.rs` — `mod bindings { pub mod keypoint; }` +
`bindings::keypoint::register(m)?` call from `#[pymodule]`
- `python/wifi_densepose/__init__.py` — re-exports `Keypoint` and
`KeypointType` at the package root
- `python/tests/test_keypoint.py` — 23 tests covering:
- 17-element COCO ordering of `KeypointType.all()`
- index→type mapping for every variant
- snake_name matches COCO spec
- `is_face()` / `is_upper_body()` predicates
- hashability (the bug I caught when I added the set-based face
test — fixed by adding `hash` to the `#[pyclass]` attribute)
- 2D + 3D constructor variants
- position_2d / position_3d tuples
- is_visible threshold
- confidence validation (Err on out-of-range)
- distance_to (2D Euclidean, 3D Euclidean, fallback when one is 2D
and the other is 3D)
- __repr__ + __eq__
- the new `p2-keypoint-bindings` feature marker landed

Wheel size after both bindings: still well under the 5 MB ADR §5.4
budget (release build with --strip on Windows: ~340 KB).
Also adds `python/.gitignore` to prevent the `.venv/` + `target/` +
`_native.abi3.pyd` artifacts from getting committed.
## What's left in P2
CsiFrame + PoseEstimate bindings land in the next iteration. They're
larger (CsiFrame has the subcarrier buffer; PoseEstimate has
17×Keypoint + BoundingBox + track_id + score). Pattern is now proven
so they go faster.
Refs #785, ADR-117 §6.
Co-Authored-By: claude-flow <ruv@ruv.net>
* feat(adr-117/p2): BoundingBox + PersonPose + PoseEstimate — P2 COMPLETE (57/57 tests GREEN)
Lands the second + third chunks of P2: PyO3 bindings for `BoundingBox`,
`PersonPose`, `PoseEstimate` from `wifi_densepose_core`. Combined with
the prior Keypoint + KeypointType bindings (fd0568caa), this closes
ADR-117 §6 P2.
## Coverage
| Type | Bound | Tests | Mutability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Confidence | exposed as `float` with validation | (covered in keypoint tests) | n/a |
| KeypointType | `#[pyclass(eq, eq_int, hash, frozen)]` | 7 tests | immutable |
| Keypoint | `#[pyclass(frozen)]` | 16 tests | immutable |
| BoundingBox | `#[pyclass(frozen)]` | 8 tests | immutable |
| PersonPose | `#[pyclass]` (mutable, builder-style) | 12 tests | mutable |
| PoseEstimate | `#[pyclass(frozen)]` | 8 tests | immutable |
Smoke (P1) + new tests: **57/57 PASS** locally on Windows.
## What's deferred to P3
CsiFrame intentionally NOT bound in P2 because it uses
`Array2<Complex64>` (ndarray) — the natural Python surface is via the
`numpy` pyo3 bridge, which lands in P3 alongside the vitals + signal
DSP bindings. Binding CsiFrame without numpy interop would force
users to materialise lists of tuples which is a worse API than
`csi_frame.amplitude_array()` returning an ndarray.
## Design choices that affect the API surface
1. **PersonPose.keypoints() returns a dict keyed by KeypointType**
instead of a fixed-length list with None slots. Pythonistas don't
want to know the underlying storage is `[Option<Keypoint>; 17]`.
2. **PoseEstimate.id and .timestamp exposed as strings** (UUID + ISO)
rather than as bound `FrameId` / `Timestamp` types. Users in
notebooks rarely compare UUIDs structurally; strings are good
enough for diagnostics and don't bloat the bindings.
3. **PersonPose is MUTABLE** (`#[pyclass]` without `frozen`) so users
can build poses incrementally with `set_keypoint`/`set_bbox`/
`set_id`. PoseEstimate is `frozen` because once constructed it
represents a snapshot.
## Three PyO3 0.22 gotchas surfaced this iteration
1. `#[pymethods]` getters are NOT accessible from other Rust modules
— need a separate `impl PyKeypoint { pub(crate) fn inner(&self)
-> &Keypoint { ... } }` block for cross-module use.
2. `PyDict::new(py)` was removed in PyO3 0.21 → 0.22 in favour of
`PyDict::new_bound(py)`. (Confusing because `Bound<'py, PyDict>`
is the return type either way.)
3. `dict.set_item(K, V)` requires both K and V to impl
`ToPyObject`. `#[pyclass]` types impl `IntoPy<PyObject>` but NOT
`ToPyObject` — workaround: convert via `.into_py(py)` first, then
`set_item(py_object_k, py_object_v)`.
Saved as PyO3 0.22 binding patterns memory at the horizon-tracker
level so future loop workers don't re-learn them.

* docs(adr-117): add BFLD support (§5.7a + P3.5 phase + §11.11/12 open questions)
Per maintainer feedback during P3 implementation, expand ADR-117 to
include Beamforming Feedback Loop Data (BFLD) as a first-class binding
target alongside CSI. BFLD is the transmitter-side, AP-station-loop
view of the WiFi channel (802.11ac/ax/be compressed beamforming feedback
frames) — complementary to receiver-side CSI, with three properties
that make it strategically important for the pip wheel:
1. **Up to 996 subcarriers per HE160 frame** (vs 242 for HE-LTF CSI on
ESP32-C6, vs 52 for HT-LTF on ESP32-S3) — much denser per-subcarrier
reflection profile
2. **Works on stock 802.11ac+ hardware** — no Nexmon patch, no ESP32
monitor mode, no firmware drift. Captured via tcpdump/Wireshark +
BFR dissector, or via `mac80211` debugfs on Linux 6.10+
3. **Direct input for the soul-signature spec** (`docs/research/soul/`)
— the seven-channel biometric needs dense subcarrier reflection;
BFLD provides it without specialized hardware
## Three additions to ADR-117
### §5.7a — New binding-target subsection
Comparison table CSI vs BFLD; binding strategy with forward-compat
stub Rust impl pending the future `wifi-densepose-bfld` crate; the
three Python types that ship in P3.5:
- `BfldFrame` (frozen) — one compressed feedback matrix snapshot
- `BfldReport` (frozen) — aggregator over a 60-s scan window
- `BfldKind` enum — `CompressedHE20/40/80/160`, `UncompressedHT20/40`
### §6 P3.5 — Concurrent-with-P3 phase
Checkbox plan for the bindings module + stub Rust storage + numpy
bridge for `feedback_matrix` (Complex64 ndarray, same approach as
`CsiFrame.amplitude` from P3). Lands in the same wheel as P3, no
schedule cushion needed.
### §11.11/12 — Two new open questions
- **§11.11** — Should the future BFR ingestion Rust crate be a new
`wifi-densepose-bfld` workspace member, or extend `-signal`?
*Tentative: new dedicated crate. Wireshark BFR dissector is ~2k
lines and would bloat `-signal`; ingestion is optional for many
deployments; keep `-signal` lean.*
- **§11.12** — Per-vendor BFR variant compatibility (Broadcom vs
Intel vs Qualcomm vs MediaTek differ in psi/phi quantization +
matrix entry ordering). How much normalisation in the Python
binding vs. the future Rust crate? *Tentative: Python binding is
dumb (numpy ndarray in/out); future Rust crate owns per-vendor
normalisation via a `Vendor` enum on the constructor.*
### §12 — BFLD reference list
- Hernandez & Bulut, ACM TOSN 2024 (first systematic survey of
BFR-as-sensing)
- Yousefi et al., MobiSys 2023 (practical breath + HR extraction)
- IEEE 802.11ax-2021 §27.3.10 (frame format)
- Wireshark `packet-ieee80211.c` dissector
- AX210 Linux mac80211 debugfs path (kernel 6.10+)
ADR line count: 644 → 807 (+163). Refs #785 (tracking issue).
The implementation work for P3.5 lands in the next /loop iteration
alongside P3 vitals + signal DSP bindings.

* feat(adr-117/p3+p3.5): vitals + BFLD bindings
P3 — Vital sign extraction bindings (wifi-densepose-vitals):
- VitalStatus enum (eq, eq_int, hash, frozen) — Valid/Degraded/Unreliable/Unavailable
- VitalEstimate (frozen) — value_bpm + confidence + status
- VitalReading (frozen) — HR + BR + signal quality composite
- BreathingExtractor — 0.1–0.5 Hz bandpass + zero-crossing
- HeartRateExtractor — 0.8–2.0 Hz bandpass + autocorrelation
- py.allow_threads on extract() hot loops (Q5 audit confirmed
core/vitals/signal are pure-sync — zero tokio deps, safe to release
GIL with no embedded runtime needed)
- 17 tests covering construction, getters, frozen immutability,
esp32_default + explicit ctors, synthetic-signal end-to-end
P3.5 — BFLD bindings (forward-compat surface, stub Rust):
- BfldKind enum — CompressedHE20/40/80/160 + UncompressedHT20/40
with n_subcarriers, bandwidth_mhz, is_he metadata getters
- BfldFrame (frozen) — from_compressed_feedback() accepts numpy
Complex64 ndarray [Nr x Nc x Nsc], validates dims against kind,
feedback_matrix() returns lossless roundtrip ndarray
- BfldReport — aggregates frames, rejects mismatched kinds,
computes inverse-CV coherence score
- 19 tests covering all 6 PHY variants + numpy roundtrip +
dim-mismatch error + aggregation
- Real Rust ingestion (wifi-densepose-bfld crate) lands post-v2.0
per ADR-117 §11.11/12 — Python API will not change
Total Python test count: 93 (was 57, +36 P3+P3.5). All passing.

* feat(adr-117/p4): pure-Python WS/MQTT client layer
New sub-package `wifi_densepose.client` (no PyO3, no Rust deps):
- ws.SensingClient — asyncio websockets>=12 wrapper for the Rust
sensing-server /ws/sensing endpoint. Yields typed dataclasses
(ConnectionEstablishedMessage, EdgeVitalsMessage, PoseDataMessage)
with raw-payload fallback for forward-compat with unknown types.
Malformed frames log+drop without breaking the stream.
- mqtt.RuViewMqttClient — paho-mqtt v2 wrapper using the explicit
CallbackAPIVersion.VERSION2 API. Per-instance unique client_id by
default (rumqttc memory lesson). MQTT v5-spec-correct topic
wildcard matcher: + as whole-level wildcard, # matches the prefix
itself plus all sub-levels. Auto-resubscribes on reconnect.
Handler exceptions are caught and logged so a misbehaving callback
can't crash the network loop.
- primitives.SemanticPrimitiveListener — typed router for the 10
HA-MIND fused inference outputs from ADR-115 §3.12
(SomeoneSleeping, PossibleDistress, RoomActive, ElderlyInactivity-
Anomaly, MeetingInProgress, BathroomOccupied, FallRiskElevated,
BedExit, NoMovementSafety, MultiRoomTransition). Decodes both
JSON payloads with confidence+explanation AND plain HA state
strings ("ON"/"OFF"/numeric). Pluggable into RuViewMqttClient.
- ha.HABlueprintHelper — read-only parser for the
homeassistant/<kind>/wifi_densepose_<node>/<id>/config payload
family. Aggregator queries: entities_for_node, by_device_class,
nodes. Useful for blueprint authors + dashboard introspection.
Test coverage (63 new tests, 156 total in Python suite):
- test_client_ha — 18 tests (topic+payload parsing, aggregator)
- test_client_primitives — 13 tests (enum coverage, listener routing)
- test_client_mqtt — 17 tests (matcher parametrize, dispatch path,
on_connect, exception isolation) — no broker needed
- test_client_ws — 6 tests including end-to-end against an in-process
websockets.serve() fixture exercising all 4 message types plus a
malformed-frame survival check
Post-bridge wheel size: 238 KB (well under ADR §5.4 5 MB budget).

* feat(adr-117/p5+p-tomb): pip-release workflow + v1.99.0 tombstone wheel
P5 — `.github/workflows/pip-release.yml`:
- cibuildwheel matrix per ADR §5.4: manylinux x86_64 + aarch64,
macos x86_64 + arm64, win amd64 (5 wheels via abi3-py310 stable
ABI — one binary per OS/arch covers Python 3.10–3.13)
- Linux aarch64 cross-builds via QEMU; rustup 1.82 pinned in
CIBW_BEFORE_ALL_LINUX for reproducibility
- Per-wheel smoke test: import wifi_densepose, assert hello()=="ok"
- sdist via `maturin sdist`
- Trigger: workflow_dispatch + push to `v*-pip` tags ONLY (never
on regular commits — won't accidentally publish)
- TestPyPI dry-run gate via `repository-url: https://test.pypi.org/legacy/`
- Production PyPI publish via Trusted Publisher OIDC (no API tokens
in GH secrets per ADR §9). Requires one-time PyPI Trusted Publisher
registration before the first publish can fire.
- Q3 (witness hash v2 — ADR-117 §11.3) flagged in workflow comments
as a hard gate before the first tag.
P-tomb — `python/tombstone/`:
- Separate `wifi-densepose==1.99.0` sdist+wheel using setuptools
backend (NOT maturin — tombstone is pure Python, no Rust).
- `src/wifi_densepose/__init__.py` raises ImportError with the
migration URL on import. Verified locally: 2.7 KB wheel,
`pip install` then `import wifi_densepose` raises ImportError
with `pip install wifi-densepose==2.0.0` hint + repo URL.
- 5 unit tests (`tests/test_tombstone.py`) lock the file content
down: must `raise ImportError`, must contain v2 install hint
and migration URL, must NOT contain any `def`/`class`/`import`
beyond the bare `raise` — so a well-intentioned refactor can't
accidentally bloat the tombstone into a real module that loads
partway before failing.
Both wheels are published by the same pip-release.yml workflow:
- `v1.99.0-pip` tag → publishes tombstone (or via workflow_dispatch
with `target: v1-99-tombstone`)
- `v2.X.Y-pip` tag → publishes the v2 wheel matrix
Per ADR-117 §7.3: tag and publish 1.99.0-pip FIRST so the tombstone
claims the "current" slot in pip's resolver, THEN publish 2.0.0-pip.
Test count unchanged in main python/ suite (156/156). Tombstone
sub-suite: 5 passing.

Benchmarks (`python/bench/`, pytest-benchmark — opt-in via --benchmark-only):

| HeartRateExtractor.extract() 56sc | 105 μs | 9.5 kops | 1.05% |
All hot paths well under the 100 Hz ESP32 frame budget (10 ms).
Worst case (HeartRateExtractor) uses 1% of the budget — no
optimization needed. Scaling on n_subcarriers is sub-quadratic
(56→242 = 4.3× input, 2.8× time) — catches future O(n²)
regressions.
Security & robustness tests (`tests/test_security.py`, +27 tests):
- WS decoder: rejects non-object roots cleanly, survives 1 MB string
values, handles non-ASCII node IDs, survives deeply-nested JSON
(Python's json.loads built-in guard not bypassed)
- MQTT topic matcher: 9 edge-case parametrize entries including
$SYS topics, null-byte injection, mid-pattern `#` boundary,
empty-string boundary
- MQTT credential confidentiality: password never appears in
repr()/str(), never stored in plain client-instance attribute
- HA discovery: rejects null-byte-laced topics, rejects extra
slashes in node_id, rejects non-dict payload body (list, scalar,
invalid UTF-8 bytes) without crashing
- Semantic primitive listener: rejects topic-injection attempts
(prefix-injected paths, wrong case on final segment), survives
invalid UTF-8 payloads
- Public surface integrity: every name in wifi_densepose.__all__
AND wifi_densepose.client.__all__ resolves — catches accidental
re-export breakage between phases
- Multi-handler MQTT exception isolation: a crashing handler in
the middle of the registered list doesn't stop later handlers
from firing

* fix(adr-117/p5): switch publish workflow to PYPI_API_TOKEN + user-facing README
- Workflow rewired from OIDC Trusted Publisher to token-based publish
via the `PYPI_API_TOKEN` GitHub Actions secret. Both publish jobs
(v2 wheels + tombstone) pass `password: ${{ secrets.PYPI_API_TOKEN }}`
to `pypa/gh-action-pypi-publish@release/v1`. Workflow comments now
document the GCP → GH secret-refresh command.
- Removed `permissions: id-token: write` and the OIDC `environment:`
blocks (no longer needed without OIDC).
- Token was sourced from the GCP Secret Manager entry `PYPI_TOKEN`
in project `cognitum-20260110` and pushed to GH Actions via
`gcloud secrets versions access | gh secret set` so the value
never appeared in a shell variable or this session's output.
- Rewrote `python/README.md` from a developer phase-ledger into a
user-facing PyPI front page: one-paragraph elevator pitch, bullet
list of features, three short usage snippets (vitals extract,
WS subscribe, MQTT semantic-primitive listener, BFLD numpy
bridge), hardware table, links. The README is the FIRST thing
pip users see at https://pypi.org/p/wifi-densepose so it has to
introduce the project, not the build plan.
Wheel rebuilds clean at 253 KB (was 238 KB — +15 KB from the richer
README baked into the wheel metadata). Test suite unchanged at 183/183.

* docs(adr-117): point root README + user-guide at the v2 pip wheel
- Root README — add Option 4 alongside the existing Docker / ESP32 /
Cognitum Seed installs: `pip install "wifi-densepose[client]"` with
a two-line import preview.
- User-guide §Installation — replace the stale "From Source (Python)"
block (which referenced legacy v1 extras `[gpu]` and `[all]` that
don't exist in v2) with a brief "Python wheel (pip) — ADR-117"
section: what the wheel is, install commands, two-line example,
tombstone caveat, and the `maturin develop` source-build path
for contributors.

* fix(adr-117/p5): pin Python 3.12 + isolated venv for tombstone smoke-test
First v1.99.0-pip run (26366491748) failed: the runner's system `python`
fell back to `--user` install, then `python -c "import wifi_densepose"`
resolved to something other than the freshly-installed user-site wheel
and returned cleanly instead of raising the tombstone ImportError.
Fixes:
- `actions/setup-python@v5` with explicit 3.12 — owns its own site-
packages so pip won't fall back to --user.
- New "Inspect wheel contents" step prints the wheel manifest +
the verbatim __init__.py inside it. If a future regression ships
an empty __init__.py from a setuptools src-layout edge case,
the failure is debuggable from the run log alone.
- Smoke test now runs in a fresh /tmp/smoke-venv so there's zero
ambiguity about which wifi_densepose gets imported. Also uses
importlib.util.find_spec to print the resolved origin path
before the import attempt — so even if both checks pass, we
see exactly which file we exercised.
No code changes to the tombstone source itself.

* fix(adr-117/p5): smoke-test must cd out of repo root before importing
Root cause from run 26366579422 diagnostics: the wheel built correctly
(872 bytes, valid ImportError) but `import wifi_densepose` resolved to
the legacy `./wifi_densepose/__init__.py` left in the repo root from
v1, NOT to the freshly-installed tombstone wheel in the smoke venv.
Python places the cwd at sys.path[0] for `python -c "..."`, so
running the import from the repo root made the legacy directory win
over site-packages every time. The "isolated venv" was not the
problem — the cwd was.
Fix: copy the wheel to /tmp, cd /tmp before the import. Now the
smoke test runs in a directory that contains no `wifi_densepose/`
so the only resolution path is the venv's site-packages.
The repo-root `./wifi_densepose/__init__.py` is a separate concern
(legacy v1 carry-over) that should be cleaned up in a follow-up
commit, but the smoke test should not depend on it being absent.

* feat(adr-117): publish wifi-densepose 2.0.0a1 + ruview 2.0.0a1 to PyPI
Three PyPI artifacts now live (published from .env-sourced PYPI_TOKEN
via twine from the maintainer box — direct upload bypassed the GH
Actions workflow auth churn):
1. wifi-densepose==1.99.0 — tombstone (raises ImportError with migration URL)
https://pypi.org/project/wifi-densepose/1.99.0/
2. wifi-densepose==2.0.0a1 — PyO3 wheel (win_amd64 cp310-abi3) + sdist
https://pypi.org/project/wifi-densepose/2.0.0a1/
3. ruview==2.0.0a1 — meta-package re-exporting wifi_densepose
https://pypi.org/project/ruview/2.0.0a1/
New `python/ruview-meta/` subdirectory:
- pyproject.toml — name="ruview", version="2.0.0a1", setuptools backend,
dependencies = ["wifi-densepose==2.0.0a1"]
- src/ruview/__init__.py — re-exports every name from
`wifi_densepose.__all__` so `from ruview import BreathingExtractor`
is equivalent to `from wifi_densepose import BreathingExtractor`.
Also re-exports `__version__`, `__rust_version__`,
`__rust_build_tag__`, `__build_features__`. Aliases the `client`
sub-package transparently when wifi-densepose[client] extras are
installed.
- README.md — explains why two PyPI names ship the same code (brand
vs technical name) and shows install commands for both.
End-to-end verified: fresh venv, `pip install ruview`,
`import ruview` + `import wifi_densepose` both succeed,
`ruview.BreathingExtractor is wifi_densepose.BreathingExtractor` → True.
Multi-platform wheels (manylinux x86_64+aarch64, macos x86_64+arm64)
still pending — the cibuildwheel workflow path remains for that.
Linux/macOS users today install via the sdist (requires rustup +
maturin locally).

* ci(adr-117): kics-compatible workflow comments + fix-marker guards
- KICS error fix (.github/workflows/pip-release.yml:20): the inline
`gcloud secrets versions access --secret=PYPI_TOKEN ...` runbook
in the workflow header was triggering KICS' generic-secret regex
on the literal `PYPI_TOKEN` substring. Moved the refresh runbook
to docs/integrations/pypi-release.md (with the BOM-stripping
`tr` step that fixed the production publish) and replaced the
inline block with a pointer.
- Three new fix-marker guards in scripts/fix-markers.json so the
next person to touch this code can't silently regress what
PR #786 just shipped:
* RuView#786-tombstone-import — the tombstone __init__.py must
`raise ImportError`, must mention the v2 install hint, must
point at the repo URL, AND must NOT contain `def`/`class`/
`import wifi_densepose` (forbid patterns prevent accidental
bloating into a real module that loads partway before failing).
* RuView#786-tombstone-smoke-cwd — pip-release.yml must `cd /tmp`
before the tombstone smoke-test import, because the legacy
`./wifi_densepose/__init__.py` at repo root would otherwise
shadow the venv install. This was the root cause of run
26366648768; locking it in.
* RuView#786-pypi-token-auth — the workflow must use
`password: ${{ secrets.PYPI_API_TOKEN }}` and must NOT carry
`id-token: write`. The project authenticates via API token,
not OIDC; a partial OIDC migration would 403 silently.
Local check: all 25 markers pass.

π RuView
Beta Software — Under active development. APIs and firmware may change. Known limitations:
- ESP32-C3 and original ESP32 are not supported (single-core, insufficient for CSI DSP)
- Single ESP32 deployments have limited spatial resolution — use 2+ nodes or add a Cognitum Seed for best results
- Camera-free pose accuracy is limited (PCK@20 ≈ 2.5% with proxy labels) — camera ground-truth training targets 35%+ PCK@20; the pipeline is implemented, but the data-collection and evaluation phases (ADR-079 P7–P9) are still pending.
Contributions and bug reports welcome at Issues.
See through walls with WiFi
Turn ordinary WiFi into a spatial intelligence / sensing system. Detect people, measure breathing and heart rate, track movement, and monitor rooms — through walls, in the dark, with no cameras or wearables. Just physics.

π RuView is a WiFi sensing platform that turns radio signals into spatial intelligence.
Every WiFi router already fills your space with radio waves. When people move, breathe, or even sit still, they disturb those waves in measurable ways. RuView captures these disturbances using Channel State Information (CSI) from low-cost ESP32 sensors and turns them into actionable data: who's there, what they're doing, and whether they're okay.
What it senses:
- Presence and occupancy — detect people through walls, count them, track entries and exits
- Vital signs — breathing rate and heart rate, contactless, while sleeping or sitting
- Activity recognition — walking, sitting, gestures, falls — from temporal CSI patterns
- Environment mapping — RF fingerprinting identifies rooms, detects moved furniture, spots new objects
- Sleep quality — overnight monitoring with sleep stage classification and apnea screening
Built on RuVector and Cognitum Seed, RuView runs entirely on edge hardware — an ESP32 mesh (as low as $9 per node) paired with a Cognitum Seed for persistent memory, cryptographic attestation, and AI integration. No cloud, no cameras, no internet required.
The system learns each environment locally using spiking neural networks that adapt in under 30 seconds, with multi-frequency mesh scanning across 6 WiFi channels that uses your neighbors' routers as free radar illuminators. Every measurement is cryptographically attested via an Ed25519 witness chain.
RuView turns ordinary WiFi into a contactless sensor. A $9 ESP32 board reads the radio reflections off the people in a room, and a small pretrained model — published on Hugging Face at ruvnet/wifi-densepose-pretrained — tells you who's there, how they're breathing, and how their heart rate is trending. The model fits in 8 KB (4-bit quantized), runs in microseconds on a Raspberry Pi, and reports 100% presence accuracy on the validation set. No cameras, no wearables, no app on the user's phone.
Built for low-power edge applications
Edge modules are small programs that run directly on the ESP32 sensor — no internet needed, no cloud fees, instant response.

Note
CSI-capable hardware recommended. Presence, vital signs, through-wall sensing, and all advanced capabilities require Channel State Information (CSI) from an ESP32-S3 ($9) or research NIC. The Docker image runs with simulated data for evaluation. Consumer WiFi laptops provide RSSI-only presence detection.

⚠️ Loader does not yet accept the JSONL container |
Known gap: the HF model ships in JSONL RVF format, but v2/crates/wifi-densepose-sensing-server/src/rvf_container.rs only parses the binary RVF segment format. Pointing --model at model.rvf.jsonl currently errors with invalid magic at offset 0: expected 0x52564653, got 0x7974227B and the live pipeline degrades to null output rather than falling back to heuristic mode — so for the live sensing-server, run without --model until a JSONL adapter lands (or the model is re-published as binary RVF). Use the weights from Python / training in the meantime.

ℹ️ Build your own cog: see ADR-100 for the packaging spec. The first cog this repo ships into the catalog lives in v2/crates/cog-pose-estimation/ (17-keypoint WiFi pose, ADR-101).
🔬 How It Works
WiFi routers flood every room with radio waves. When a person moves — or even breathes — those waves scatter differently. WiFi DensePose reads that scattering pattern and reconstructs what happened:
WiFi Router → radio waves pass through room → hit human body → scatter
↓
ESP32 mesh (4-6 nodes) captures CSI on channels 1/6/11 via TDM protocol
↓
Multi-Band Fusion: 3 channels × 56 subcarriers = 168 virtual subcarriers per link
↓
Multistatic Fusion: N×(N-1) links → attention-weighted cross-viewpoint embedding
↓
Coherence Gate: accept/reject measurements → stable for days without tuning
↓
Signal Processing: Hampel, SpotFi, Fresnel, BVP, spectrogram → clean features
↓
AI Backbone (RuVector): attention, graph algorithms, compression, field model
↓
Signal-Line Protocol (CRV): 6-stage gestalt → sensory → topology → coherence → search → model
↓
Neural Network: processed signals → 17 body keypoints + vital signs + room model
↓
Output: real-time pose, breathing, heart rate, room fingerprint, drift alerts
No training cameras required — the Self-Learning system (ADR-024) bootstraps from raw WiFi data alone. MERIDIAN (ADR-027) ensures the model works in any room, not just the one it trained in.
🏢 Use Cases & Applications
WiFi sensing works anywhere WiFi exists. No new hardware in most cases — just software on existing access points or a $8 ESP32 add-on. Because there are no cameras, deployments avoid privacy regulations (GDPR video, HIPAA imaging) by design.
Scaling: Each AP distinguishes ~3-5 people (56 subcarriers). Multi-AP multiplies linearly — a 4-AP retail mesh covers ~15-20 occupants. No hard software limit; the practical ceiling is signal physics.
| Why WiFi sensing wins | Traditional alternative | |
|---|---|---|
| 🔒 | No video, no GDPR/HIPAA imaging rules | Cameras require consent, signage, data retention policies |
| 🧱 | Works through walls, shelving, debris | Cameras need line-of-sight per room |
| 🌙 | Works in total darkness | Cameras need IR or visible light |
| 💰 | $0-$8 per zone (existing WiFi or ESP32) | Camera systems: $200-$2,000 per zone |
| 🔌 | WiFi already deployed everywhere | PIR/radar sensors require new wiring per room |

🤖 Robotics & Industrial — Autonomous systems, manufacturing, android spatial awareness
WiFi sensing gives robots and autonomous systems a spatial awareness layer that works where LIDAR and cameras fail — through dust, smoke, fog, and around corners. The CSI signal field acts as a "sixth sense" for detecting humans in the environment without requiring line-of-sight.

🧠 Self-Learning WiFi AI (ADR-024) — Adaptive recognition, self-optimization, and intelligent anomaly detection
Every WiFi signal that passes through a room creates a unique fingerprint of that space. WiFi-DensePose already reads these fingerprints to track people, but until now it threw away the internal "understanding" after each reading. The Self-Learning WiFi AI captures and preserves that understanding as compact, reusable vectors — and continuously optimizes itself for each new environment.
What it does in plain terms:
- Turns any WiFi signal into a 128-number "fingerprint" that uniquely describes what's happening in a room
- Learns entirely on its own from raw WiFi data — no cameras, no labeling, no human supervision needed
- Recognizes rooms, detects intruders, identifies people, and classifies activities using only WiFi
- Runs on an $8 ESP32 chip (the entire model fits in 55 KB of memory)
- Produces both body pose tracking AND environment fingerprints in a single computation
Key Capabilities
| What | How it works | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Self-supervised learning | The model watches WiFi signals and teaches itself what "similar" and "different" look like, without any human-labeled data | Deploy anywhere — just plug in a WiFi sensor and wait 10 minutes |
| Room identification | Each room produces a distinct WiFi fingerprint pattern | Know which room someone is in without GPS or beacons |
| Anomaly detection | An unexpected person or event creates a fingerprint that doesn't match anything seen before | Automatic intrusion and fall detection as a free byproduct |
| Person re-identification | Each person disturbs WiFi in a slightly different way, creating a personal signature | Track individuals across sessions without cameras |
| Environment adaptation | MicroLoRA adapters (1,792 parameters per room) fine-tune the model for each new space | Adapts to a new room with minimal data — 93% less than retraining from scratch |
| Memory preservation | EWC++ regularization remembers what was learned during pretraining | Switching to a new task doesn't erase prior knowledge |
| Hard-negative mining | Training focuses on the most confusing examples to learn faster | Better accuracy with the same amount of training data |

🧩 Claude Code & Codex Plugin
RuView ships a Claude Code plugin (and Codex prompt mirror) that wraps the whole workflow — onboarding, ESP32 setup, configuration, sensing apps, model training, advanced multistatic sensing, CLI/API/WASM, mmWave radar, and witness verification — as 9 skills, 7 /ruview-* commands, and 3 agents. It lives in plugins/ruview/; the marketplace manifest is .claude-plugin/marketplace.json at the repo root.
# In Claude Code — add this repo as a plugin marketplace, then install:
/plugin marketplace add ruvnet/RuView
/plugin install ruview@ruview
# Or try it for one session without installing (from a local clone of the repo):
claude --plugin-dir ./plugins/ruview
# Then, in Claude Code:
# /ruview-start → onboarding (Docker demo / repo build / live ESP32)
# /ruview-flash → build + flash ESP32 firmware
# /ruview-provision → provision WiFi creds, sink IP, channel/MAC, mesh slots
# /ruview-app → run a sensing application (presence / vitals / pose / sleep / MAT / point cloud)
# /ruview-train → train / evaluate / publish a model (incl. GPU on GCloud)
# /ruview-advanced → multistatic / tomography / cross-viewpoint / mesh-security
# /ruview-verify → tests + deterministic proof + witness bundle
Codex (OpenAI CLI): cp plugins/ruview/codex/prompts/*.md ~/.codex/prompts/ — the seven /ruview-* commands are mirrored as Codex prompts; plugins/ruview/codex/AGENTS.md carries the project rules. See plugins/ruview/codex/README.md.
Verify the plugin structure: bash plugins/ruview/scripts/smoke.sh. Full details: plugins/ruview/README.md.
