Asked after the mobile-internet question: could a VPN let the office cameras
be shown in the demo. Three jobs get confused there and only one needs one.
Seeing the estate from anywhere already works and needs nothing - viewer mode
plus LiveHub is exactly that, outbound, no installation and no credential.
Demonstrating recognition is better done on the demo machine's own camera.
`webcam: 0` picks a capture index instead of building an RTSP URL and the
engine has supported it since the first version: CameraStore round-trips it,
source() returns the index, safe_url() reports webcam:0, and
POST /api/cameras {"id":"laptop","webcam":0} has always worked. No screen
offered it - the same gap this repo already records for the customer record
and per-camera tuning. It is now an option in the make picker, and it is the
strongest demo available: real faces, in the room, depending on no network.
A demo pointed at a camera in another building depends on two internet
connections and a tunnel staying up while somebody is talking.
The address and the index are alternatives, not extras: source() takes the
webcam first, so a half-typed host left behind would make the saved camera
describe two things and use one. The scan, the path and the camera password
are hidden for a local camera because none of them mean anything.
A tunnel is still right for one case - running the engine on a remote machine
against the office's own cameras - and still wrong for the product: it is
per-site infrastructure on every shop PC, and it gives head office
network-level access into a customer's LAN, where today we can read a
camera's picture and nothing else.
Also: installing httpx took the suite from 239 passed to 271. The HTTP tests
importorskip it so a bare checkout runs, which means the number at the bottom
of a run is not the number of tests that exist. Added to the dev extra.

The store-facing app: a tray icon, a window, and the supervisor for the Python recognition engine.
Why one process, not three
The tray, the window and the supervisor all need the same state, and a user who quits the tray expects recognition to stop. Splitting them means two things can disagree about whether the engine is running.
It is deliberately not a Windows service. A service runs in session 0 and cannot draw a tray icon — that is Windows session isolation, not a library limitation. Spawning a child process also needs no elevation, while controlling a service does, so this design never triggers UAC at runtime.
Layout
main.go wails.Run, window options
app.go the methods bound to the frontend
tray.go fyne.io/systray — wails v2 has no tray of its own
icons.go tray icons generated at run time, not embedded
internal/local client for the engine on 127.0.0.1:8010
internal/cloud client for https://mcp.loyaly.ai
frontend/ React + Vite
The supervisor, durable spool, broker client and path resolution come from
../agent/pkg/* — the same tested code the headless agent runs, imported
rather than copied.
Build
cd frontend && npm install && npm run build # then, from this directory:
wails build -platform windows/amd64
wails build needs the Wails CLI:
go install github.com/wailsapp/wails/v2/cmd/wails@v2.9.2
Without it, go build still type-checks everything provided
frontend/dist exists — the embed directive requires it.
What the frontend talks to
Nothing is imported from generated bindings. src/bridge.js calls
window.go.main.App.* directly, so npm run build works without running
wails generate, and there is one place that handles "the engine is not
running yet" — the state every screen has to survive on a fresh install.
