AMOLED brightness fades to 0 after IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS without a physical
button press; any of the three buttons (BTN_BACK / BTN_FWD / PWR) fades
it back in. The first press from sleep is consumed for wake only —
Space / Shift+Tab / cycle-screen only fire on the second press, so
reaching for the device to glance at it doesn't accidentally send PTT
to Claude.
Touch never counts as activity and is fully swallowed while asleep:
pets and sleeves can't wake it, and LVGL can't secretly toggle
splash<->usage behind a black panel.
Rotation handling defers while asleep so its blank+ramp doesn't fight
the idle fade; a rotation that happens during sleep is detected and
ramped in on wake.
All tunables live in idle_cfg.h (timeout, fade durations, default
brightness) — nothing is hard-coded in main.cpp.
AMOLED brightness=0 is true 0 emission on these self-emissive panels,
so no extra power-management plumbing (light-sleep, AXP rail gating)
is needed to get the battery savings.
macOS Bluetooth quirks made the original BLE setup unusable from a Mac
host. Five focused changes to fix discovery, pairing, the keyboard
identification wizard, and concurrent connections, plus a couple of
cross-platform daemon/script niceties.
Firmware (ble.cpp):
* Advertise the standard HID Service UUID (0x1812) in the primary
packet. Without it, macOS Sequoia's Bluetooth Settings GUI
recognizes the device internally but silently hides it from the
"Nearby Devices" list. Service UUIDs >16-bit overflow the 31-byte
advertising packet, so the custom data-service UUID moved to the
scan response.
* Switch PnP ID from Apple's USB vendor (0x05AC + Magic Keyboard
PID 0x820A) to Espressif's BT SIG vendor (0x02E5). macOS validates
Apple-claimed HIDs against known device IDs and refuses to surface
a Connect button for spoofers.
* Add the LED output report (Num/Caps/Scroll Lock) to the HID
descriptor — macOS treats a keyboard descriptor without LEDs as
"incomplete" and triggers the Keyboard Setup Assistant repeatedly.
* Set HID country code to 33 (US ANSI) instead of 0 (Not Supported)
so macOS can identify the layout without asking the user.
* Bump CONFIG_BT_NIMBLE_MAX_CONNECTIONS to 2 and restart advertising
after each accept. macOS holds one connection for the HID keyboard
link; the daemon now gets its own slot for the data service in
parallel, instead of either side starving the other.
screenshot.sh: auto-pick /dev/cu.usbmodem101 on macOS vs /dev/ttyACM0
on Linux, fall back to PlatformIO's bundled Python if pyserial isn't
on the system Python (PEP 668 blocks `pip install` on Homebrew Python),
and pass the actual framebuffer dimensions to ffmpeg instead of
hardcoding 480x480.
daemon/claude_usage_daemon.py: log API HTTP status + response body on
4xx/5xx so silent token-expiry failures (the daemon was reporting
{"s":0,"w":0} payloads instead of surfacing a 401) are visible in the
daemon log.
