shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 a484abec61 Make the OBS adapter real: properties UI, connect, and frame output
The stub source becomes an actual streamer-tools camera. On create it reads
server URL / room slug / read key / camera identity from obs_data_t, mints a
subscribe-only token through ApiClient, connects LiveKitSession, and pushes
decoded frames into obs_source_output_video / obs_source_output_audio. The
source is now OBS_SOURCE_ASYNC_VIDEO | OBS_SOURCE_AUDIO |
OBS_SOURCE_DO_NOT_DUPLICATE with an OBS_ICON_TYPE_CAMERA icon.

The file is C++ rather than C now: the core library's API is C++ and the C ABI
shim existed only to avoid that. obs-module.h already declares the module
entry points extern "C", so nothing is lost.

Properties UI: server URL, room slug, a masked read-key field (it is a
credential and is masked everywhere else in streamer-tools), a camera dropdown,
a "Refresh camera list" button, and a status line.

- The dropdown is built from a cache the worker keeps warm on every connect,
  so opening properties never blocks on the network. The button is the
  explicit way to force a round trip, with a shortened 5s timeout -- for which
  ApiClient's two calls gained a timeout_ms parameter.
- The currently-selected identity is always in the list, labelled "(not in
  this room)" if absent, so OBS cannot silently clear a working setting just
  because the room happens to be dark.
- The status line is the OBS_TEXT_INFO property's description (which is what
  OBS actually renders) and switches to the warning info type on a real error.

Threading: OBS's UI and graphics threads are never blocked on the network.
Each source owns a worker thread that mints, connects, and reconnects with
exponential backoff (1s -> 30s), waking early on any settings change via a
generation counter. Frames are pushed from LiveKitSession's reader threads
directly; obs_source_output_video/_audio are thread-safe.

Two details that matter operationally:
 - A null frame is pushed whenever the session leaves Connected, so a camera
   that stopped publishing clears instead of leaving its last frame on screen.
   Leaving stale media up is precisely the failure this plugin exists to avoid.
 - The SDK's own logging is routed into OBS's log file via
   livekit::setLogCallback, instead of stderr where a director would never
   see it. The adapter also logs the first frame and every later geometry
   change, so a log answers "did video ever arrive, and at what size".

Packaging: the build now stages a runnable layout into build/package/ --
the module (RPATH $ORIGIN / @loader_path, so it resolves the LiveKit
libraries from beside itself rather than from the build tree), liblivekit +
liblivekit_ffi, the locale data, and the licence files. third_party/livekit/
carries client-sdk-cpp's Apache-2.0 LICENSE and NOTICE from the pinned tag.

Its README records a correction to the design doc: the "bundled LICENSE.md
with ~28 third-party licence blocks" the doc expects DOES NOT EXIST at
v1.10.1 -- not in any of the five release archives (which contain only
include/, lib/, bin/ and build-info.json) and not in the repo at that tag,
which has only LICENSE and NOTICE. The aggregated third-party notice covering
the WebRTC/OpenH264 code inside liblivekit_ffi.so has not been located, and
that is flagged as an open licensing question rather than papered over.

Verified on Ubuntu 24.04 against real libobs 30.0.2, a real
livekit-server 1.13.6, and a stand-in API serving plugin.routes.ts's exact
shapes, using a headless libobs harness (obs_startup + obs_reset_audio +
obs_reset_video + obs_open_module + obs_source_create):

  registered=1  output_flags=0x87
  [streamer-tools-camera] connected to ws://127.0.0.1:7880 as
      obs:main-room:qY85r9D0PaPt, watching cam-test
  [streamer-tools-camera] video frame 640x360 I420
  camera dropdown has 3 items:
    [0] (no camera selected) =
    [1] Test Camera = cam-test
    [2] Dark Camera (offline) = other-cam
  status: connected (info_type=0)

and with a deliberately wrong read key:

  status: unknown room slug, or the read key is wrong or has been rotated
      (info_type=1)

with retry-and-backoff and no crash. ctest: 6/6 passed.

Still unverified, and the README says so plainly: the OBS GUI on any platform,
macOS/Windows beyond compiling, A/V sync, and end-to-end latency.

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 80904a3e85 Add the LiveKit session wrapper, verified end-to-end against a real room
Build / macOS (macos-latest) (push) Successful in 14s
Build / Linux (ubuntu-latest) (push) Successful in 41s
Build / Windows (windows-latest) (push) Failing after 8m18s
stplugin::LiveKitSession wraps livekit::Room for exactly one subscribed slot:
connect with the wsUrl/lkToken the API client minted, find the chosen
participant's camera (and microphone), and hand decoded frames to
callback-shaped handlers the OBS adapter can consume directly.

Two architectural decisions worth recording, both forced by reading the SDK
rather than guessed:

1. Frames come from VideoStream/AudioStream::fromTrack with our own reader
   threads, NOT from Room::setOnVideoFrameCallback. The dispatcher API is
   keyed by (participant identity, track NAME), which we cannot know before
   the track is published -- and disassembling liblivekit.so confirms that
   both Room::setOnVideoFrameCallback and the dispatcher's own
   setOnVideoFrameCallback merely record the registration: neither starts a
   reader for a track that is already subscribed. Registering after the
   subscription event, which is the only time the track name exists, would
   therefore have silently produced no video. Taking the shared_ptr<Track>
   straight off the TrackSubscribedEvent sidesteps the name entirely, and
   lets us pick the camera by TrackSource (streamer-tools publishes cameras
   as Source.Camera and screenshares separately -- apps/web/src/avatar/
   publish.ts), which is what we actually mean.

2. Every stream operation runs on one owned worker thread, never on a room
   event thread. The SDK documents that Room::disconnect() from inside a
   delegate callback deadlocks, and Room's own event dispatch holds a mutex,
   so delegate callbacks only ever enqueue a command here.

VideoStream::Options::capacity is set (3 frames) so the SDK's queue is a
drop-oldest ring buffer: a stalled consumer can only fall three frames
behind, and what it then sees is the newest frame rather than a backlog.
That is the structural answer to the stale-media bug that motivated this
plugin.

The pure decision-making -- the state machine, track selection, frame
geometry validation -- lives in session_types.h/.cpp with no LiveKit or OBS
types, so it is unit-testable headlessly (81 checks in test_session,
including the publisher-swap and reconnect transitions, plus the real
connect() failure paths against the real SDK: unreachable host, garbage
token, incomplete config, and destruction mid-connect).

test_integration_livekit is the test that proves media actually flows. It
publishes a synthetic camera and microphone into a real LiveKit room using
the same SDK, subscribes through LiveKitSession, and asserts on the exact
fields the OBS adapter will dereference. It skips (exit 0) unless
STPLUGIN_IT_* is set, so the three build runners stay green;
scripts/livekit-dev-room.py mints the tokens for a local `livekit-server
--dev`.

Verified locally against livekit-server 1.13.6 in dev mode:

  integration_livekit: 36 video frames, 323 audio frames, 10 state changes
  integration_livekit: 32 checks passed

covering: connect; subscribe to the named participant's camera; 320x240
I420 frames with three planes, non-null plane pointers and strides >= the
frame's own width; 48kHz audio; unpublish -> hasVideo() false, state stays
Connected (a dark camera is the placeholder state, never an error) and NO
further frames arrive from the dead publisher; republish -> video resumes;
clean disconnect.

One real finding from that run, now handled: WebRTC ramps a new subscription
up from a downscaled spatial layer, so the first frames after (re)subscribing
legitimately arrive smaller than what is being published. The OBS adapter
must cope with a mid-stream resolution change; the test asserts per-frame
geometry rather than the publisher's, and separately asserts the stream does
reach full size.

Full suite: ctest -> 6/6 passed.

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 bf33966a4e Add the streamer-tools API client, with a real HTTP backend per platform
Implements the two read-key-scoped calls in
apps/server/src/obs/plugin.routes.ts: GET /api/obs/:slug/slots and
POST /api/obs/:slug/token.

Three pieces, all in core/ with no OBS dependency:

- stplugin::json -- a small, strict JSON reader. Hand-rolled rather than
  vendoring nlohmann because the only JSON this plugin ever sees is two
  fixed-shape responses from its own server, and the parser has to build on
  three platforms with no package-manager step in CI. It never throws,
  bounds its recursion (kMaxDepth=32) so a hostile response cannot overflow
  the stack inside OBS, rejects trailing garbage, and returns the caller's
  fallback for wrong-typed access instead of aborting.

- stplugin::HttpClient -- a two-method injectable interface, with libcurl
  behind it on Linux/macOS and WinHTTP on Windows. WinHTTP rather than curl
  on Windows because it ships with the OS and does TLS through SChannel: the
  self-hosted winvm-builder runner has no package manager, and per the
  scaffold README does not even have cmake preinstalled. Both backends cap
  the response body at 4 MiB, keep TLS verification on (the read key is a
  credential), and honour a whole-request timeout.

- stplugin::ApiClient -- maps the responses onto an ApiStatus enum that
  distinguishes NotFound (404), Unavailable (503), NetworkError,
  MalformedResponse and InvalidConfig. It deliberately does not claim to
  know whether a 404 was a wrong key or an unknown slug, because the server
  deliberately does not say. Server URLs are normalised the way an operator
  actually pastes them, defaulting to https so the read key is never sent in
  the clear by accident, and redactedUrl() exists so a URL can be logged
  without the key.

Tests (279 checks across two new suites) run at two levels: a fake
HttpClient covering every response and error branch, and a real loopback
HTTP server on 127.0.0.1 driving the actual platform backend -- so libcurl
on Linux/macOS and WinHTTP on Windows are each exercised in CI rather than
assumed. The loopback cases deliberately include the ones that must not hang
OBS: a truncated JSON body, a connection accepted and closed without a
reply, non-HTTP garbage, a dead port, and a stalled server that has to be
cut off by the client's own timeout.

Verified locally on Ubuntu 24.04:
  ctest --test-dir build --output-on-failure -> 4/4 passed
  test_json: 158 checks passed
  test_api_client: 121 checks passed

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 e595173049 Link the pinned LiveKit C++ SDK into the core library
Adds cmake/LiveKitSDK.cmake, adapted from
livekit-examples/cpp-example-collection's helper of the same name, with the
VERSION="latest" GitHub-API resolution path removed: this project pins an
exact client-sdk-cpp release (1.10.1, the newest tag as of today), and the
pin should not be silently bypassable. The module also now exports the
runtime shared libraries so packaging can stage liblivekit/liblivekit_ffi
next to the plugin module later.

core/ links LiveKit::livekit PUBLIC. A new smoke test proves the SDK is not
just linked but loadable and callable: livekit::initialize()/shutdown()
round-trip in-process, a second initialize() reports "already initialized",
the log level round-trips, and the SDK's generated LIVEKIT_BUILD_VERSION is
asserted equal to the version CMake pinned (so a stale extracted SDK
directory fails loudly rather than being silently reused).

Also adds core/tests/test_util.h, a dependency-free assertion harness that
keeps running after a failure and prints a pass/fail count, so CI output says
how much actually ran instead of dying on the first bare assert().

cmake_minimum_required goes 3.16 -> 3.19 (file(ARCHIVE_EXTRACT)).

shadowdaoandClaude Sonnet 5 105f1041ab Scaffold core/OBS-adapter split, prove CMake toolchain, add 3-platform CI
Build / Windows (windows-latest) (push) Failing after 10s
Build / macOS (macos-latest) (push) Successful in 20s
Build / Linux (ubuntu-latest) (push) Successful in 31s
First pass on the streamer-tools OBS camera plugin: a minimal but real
CMake project matching the design doc's core-library/OBS-adapter split
(docs/superpowers/specs/2026-09-06-obs-camera-plugin-design.md in the
streamer-tools repo). No LiveKit FFI integration yet -- this proves the
toolchain works.

- core/: dependency-free C++17 library (no OBS dependency), unit tested
  via CTest with no external test framework.
- obs-adapter/: adapted from obsproject/obs-plugintemplate (commit
  3e7d7ac, 2025-12-09). Registers a real, stubbed OBS source type;
  builds as a genuine dynamically-linked OBS module against Ubuntu's
  system libobs-dev (confirmed via ldd/nm, not a fake stand-in).
- Simpler hand-written top-level CMakeLists.txt in place of the
  template's full buildspec-driven bootstrap (which downloads full OBS
  source + prebuilt deps) -- find_package(libobs) alone is enough on
  Linux; falls back to core-library-only when libobs isn't found
  (expected on macOS/Windows CI for now).
- .gitea/workflows/build.yml: 3-platform matrix (ubuntu-latest,
  macos-latest, windows-latest) matching the runners confirmed
  available to this repo under the CyberCoveLLC org.
