RuView: Fixing the Fleet's Blind Spots
A cluster of fixes across the ESP32-C6 sensing fleet closed gaps where nodes silently produced wrong data — mismatched node positions, misaligned frame timing, and unguarded sensor readings — while new firmware work adds persistent logging so the next failure leaves evidence.

The top story today: several bugs in this codebase weren't crashing anything — they were quietly corrupting data while everything looked healthy. That's the thread running through today's merges.
Start with node positions. PR 1860 found that positions were keyed by list order instead of node ID, so when one node went quiet, its neighbors silently inherited the wrong coordinates. Nothing errored — the fleet just believed bad sensor data. Ruvnet's follow-up, PR 1880, found the same bug pattern in a second,…
Timing had a similar story. PR 1859 discovered that nodes were rate-limiting CSI frames on independent clocks, so two healthy nodes at 50 hertz were still capturing disjoint frames — nothing for cross-node fusion to pair. PR 1857 fixed a related frame-rate metric that under-counted bursty UDP delivery. And PR 1872…
Sensor trust shows up again in PR 1882, where implausible sentinel RSSI values from the edge-vitals packet were poisoning the fused mean reading — now guarded and falling back to last-known-good. And PR 1879 found training metrics were being exported from a no-op baseline pass instead of the real contrastive…
On the firmware side,…
