RuView: Calibration Gets Tested on Real Hardware
The calibration system saw two connected fixes that tie server receipts to room identity and repair the empty-room baseline save path, both validated against real ESP32-C6 hardware, while a separate script fix closed a long-standing header mismatch between a test utility and the production parsers.

Good day, and welcome to RuView for September 17th, 2026.
The signal today is hardware-driven confidence in the calibration pipeline. Two of the three pull requests build directly on each other, and both were shaped by testing against actual ESP32-C6 nodes rather than simulation alone.
Start with PR 1903, which binds server receipts to room identity. It adds process, session, and room-binding identities to the field calibration API, and it now tracks the exact set of nodes requested separately from the nodes actually observed contributing data. Completion is refused until every requested node…
PR 1936 builds directly on that work, based on the same commit that carries the room-identity receipt. It fixes three defects in the empty-room baseline save path, all found by running the Mac Catalyst app against three to four physical nodes. Each fix has a test, and each test was mutation-checked, meaning the fix…
Together, these two PRs show a pattern worth internalizing: room-level identity is now a hard requirement in the calibration flow, and the team is validating against physical nodes before merging, not just unit tests.
Separately, PR 1953 fixes a script called synth-csi-udp,…
