- winpe-status-push.ps1: check-bios.cmd stages the firmware update before
the imaging menu, but startnet's 'BIOS firmware update' push only comes
at the end of WinPE, so builds showed a plain 'Applying image' for the
whole apply. The first push now reports the staged update when
X:\bios-fired.flag exists, and the floor shows 'Applying image - BIOS
update staged' (do not power off during the next reboot). Also: CIM
fallback for the serial where wmic is missing, and standard/engineer
always report 5 steps.
- Network pill: cdc_ncm (e.g. the WisdPI RTL8157 5G adapter) keeps link
speed in a 32-bit bits/s field, so 5 Gb/s reads 705 Mb/s; show the real
speed with a note.
Tested in the win11 VM (with and without the BIOS flag, and the late
startnet push).
A 'Network' pill next to 'Services' lists each physical NIC with its role
(imaging / GE network, from /etc/pxe-server/nic.conf or dnsmasq's
interface= pin), link, speed, addresses, and whether dnsmasq serves
DHCP/PXE on it. It reads pxe-nic-check's verdict file
(/run/pxe-nic-status.json) when present, and shows a red banner when the
imaging NIC is on the GE network or a network with another DHCP server,
or when dnsmasq answers DHCP on a non-imaging NIC. Without the file it
shows link and addresses only. Read-only.
Live since 2026-10-14: dnsmasq hands every UEFI client ipxe-shim.efi
(iPXE's shim, dual-signed under Microsoft UEFI CA 2011 + 2023), which
loads ipxe.efi from the TFTP root, now the iPXE v2.0.0 snponly build
(firmware network and USB drivers; the full build kills USB keyboards).
The per-MAC test tags and folders are gone; the old Broadcom-signed
1.21.1 build stays as ipxe-bcm.efi, the rollback.
- playbook: pinned sha256 vars, the new dnsmasq default line, and a
verified, non-optional task that installs ipxe-shim.efi, ipxe.efi
(snponly), ipxe.pxe and ipxe-bcm.efi (was: copy ipxe.efi and the never
served undionly.kpxe, errors ignored).
- scripts/fetch-ipxe.sh downloads the pinned tarball and shim into
boot-files/ for the USB build; README/SETUP list the step.
- iPXE page: ipxe.efi is staged from snponly.efi, a build that drives USB
itself is refused, and the snponly-shim/snponly root files are gone.
Tested: the playbook task against the real release files (installs the
live hashes; a tampered file stops it before anything is replaced),
ansible --syntax-check, staging, and the full-build refusal.
The floor's 8 stages are the shopfloor pipeline, and only shopfloor-setup
reports after WinPE, so every gea-standard / gea-engineer build sat at
1/8 forever with no type.
- winpe-status-push.ps1 reads the image from the Z: share mapping when no
PCTYPE is set and reports those builds as 5 steps.
- Send-ImagingStage.ps1 (deployed to _shared\Applications\extra\pxe-status)
posts steps 2-5 from the unattend: start and end of specialize, first
logon, and setup complete (succeeded). It is copied to
C:\ProgramData\PxeStatus first, because the bulk-enrollment task deletes
C:\Deploy before first logon. Best-effort: always exits 0.
- Floor rows use Standard/Engineer labels and show the image as the kind.
Tested as SYSTEM in the win11 VM (PowerShell 5.1): the exact unattend
command line, stages 3-5 against a test server, a dead port (exit 0), and
the image regex.
Staging fetches ipxe-shimx64.efi from the ipxe/shim release (sha256 from
GitHub), and uses it instead of the tarball's 2011-only shim when it is
signed under the Microsoft UEFI CA 2023 and trusts the same iPXE CA;
otherwise the tarball shim stays, with the reason shown. snponly.efi and
snponly-shim.efi are managed alongside ipxe.efi and ipxe-shim.efi, each
iPXE build says whether it drives USB itself (kills USB keyboards), and
tftp-unique-root per-MAC folders are listed read-only.
Evidence pack gets a Last 3 months quick range (three full calendar
months). Opened menus are nudged back inside the window, so header
popovers no longer start off-screen on phones or a wrapped header.
Buttons and filter pills inside a menu keep their own styling.
Evidence pack takes ?from=&to= (inclusive, Eastern time) with From/To
pickers and quick ranges; ZIP is named ENT-056_<site>_<from>_to_<to>.
Month keys show as 'September 2026'. Hardware gap rows on the to-do
use the shared one-line grid with chips for the missing pack or BIOS.
From the design review:
- Floor rows reserve 150px for actions instead of 190px; stage text is
one line with the full text in a tip (safety text still wraps); the PC
type hides first; rows stack only below 960px of panel width, with the
actions on the status line instead of their own row.
- Tips also show on keyboard focus.
- Placeholders use the muted token (dark-theme contrast was 3.6:1).
- Save bar focus ring uses the save bar's accent (2.8:1 before).
- Unattend: a command's '...' menu stayed open after Move up/down and
covered the next row's menu, so the next click could stage removing the
wrong command. The menu now closes and focus returns to its button.
- '...' menus close on an outside click, on Escape and when another
opens (static/app.js), for every page.
- Drivers: Remove asks to confirm again, as before the redesign. Long zip
paths in a row body wrap (the page scrolled sideways at 390 px).
- Rollback review returns to the page it was opened from (Dell page or
Updates overview), for both Cancel and the rollback itself.
- To-do: the ServiceNow period offers a year again (366 days).
- Imaging floor: a search that matches a log-only bay opens that group;
its open state survives the live refresh. 'Clear all' states the
number of session files it deletes, hidden finished ones included.
- Dashboard: the image key pattern is valid under the browser's v flag
(client-side validation was silently skipped).
- Import: allowed_import_source() compares real paths, so
'<upload dir>/../..' is refused. This path traversal predates the
redesign; the import moves the source tree, so it mattered.
Blocker
- /reports/export returned 500: REPORT_EXPORT_RANGES and _months_ago were
deleted with the old reports route. Restored.
Major
- A session without stage_index/stage_total took down /, /imaging and
/imaging/tiles (int filter on Undefined). The templates default both;
saving a LAPS password for a session that no longer exists is refused
(it created a bare session).
- /reports/todo parsed every report four times (23 s at 700 reports).
blancco_report.parse() now caches by path, mtime and size: 0.09 s.
- Stored XSS through the session serial in the Clear confirm (the
browser decodes ' before running an inline handler). The message
moves to data-confirm, and update_session() only accepts serials of
letters, digits, '.', '_' and '-' (400 from /imaging/status otherwise).
- Reports without a document id and with odd characters in the file name
got a key the mark routes rejected, so they could never be cleared.
report_key() now always produces a valid key.
Minor
- failure_note() handles a list-valued erasure target (500 on the report
and to-do pages).
- _recently_marked() tolerates naive, 'Z' and non-dict state entries.
- Key regexes use fullmatch (a trailing newline was accepted).
- Unreadable reports are no longer counted as to tick / to destroy; the
reports page already flags them as Unreadable.
- Rollback review recounts restorable files after reading the backups.
- Enrollment: the startnet fallback package (no or empty ppkg.conf) and a
quoted SOURCE_PPKG are protected too.
- Backup upload overwrite check is case-insensitive (SMB share) and
replaces the existing file rather than adding a case twin.
- Overview polling keeps the last good rows on an error and pauses while
the tab is hidden. A shown or typed LAPS password survives the floor's
refresh.
- hardware_dismiss only redirects to same-site paths; tiles ?limit is
clamped; the Updates overview survives an unreadable Dell scan or iPXE
state; describe() uses aversion(); a client cannot label its session
'inferred'.
Restyled to the same row pattern (one line, details in an expandable
body, one action plus a menu, tokens for light and dark):
- hardware coverage, audit log (family chips, destructive actions in
red, client-side filters, first 300 rows), Clonezilla backups,
enrollment packages (active package marked and undeletable, MCL flags
with a visible legend)
- image Overview, OS and packages, Unattend (sticky save bar), Import
- Dell, iPXE, Blancco and BPRT update pages; Dell history links to the
rollback review instead of rolling back on one click
- boot menu editor (tabs, rows with a menu, lint chips that jump to the
line, tokens instead of hard-coded dark colours) and the imaging
session detail page
Fixes found on the way:
- BPRT batch Activate never asked to confirm: a hidden input named
'confirm' shadowed window.confirm in the inline handler, so the form
submitted without a prompt. It now calls window.confirm.
- Backup upload refused when a backup with that name exists, unless
'Replace the existing backup' is ticked (it overwrote silently).
- app.js: em dashes in comments replaced (plain ASCII).
Reports (/reports):
- Grouped by month of the erasure date inside each report (not the file
date), newest first; older months fold. Each month header shows the
evidence pack state (builds on the 1st, to upload with Download, or
uploaded).
- One line per report: erasure date, system serial, model, drives,
result ('Successful, fallback' when a failed attempt fell back to
another standard), cloud and ServiceNow state. The row body lists every
drive and erasure attempt with the failure reason.
- Search by system serial, model, drive serial or file; filters for
failed, not in cloud and to tick. 'To tick' uses the to-do's 30-day
window; older unticked reports read 'Not ticked'.
- Export and the evidence pack download moved into header popovers.
Report (/reports/view/<file>):
- Header with serial, model and the per-drive result; a notice names
the drive to destroy until its COD is recorded; Copy ServiceNow note.
- One card per drive with every attempt, a step track and the failure
reason; steps and error counts fold. System, customer and provenance
(integrity signature folded, copyable) on the side. Sizes in decimal
units, as on the list.
- blancco_evidence.failure_note() is shared with the ServiceNow list.
To-do (/reports/todo):
- The ServiceNow tick list is now its first section (period and show
ticked filters); /reports/servicenow redirects there.
- Five counters; one line per item with details in the row body.
- COD recorded, Mark uploaded and Resolved confirm first (the attribute
quoting is safe for JSON) and can be undone for 24 hours from the
page. The header total includes hardware gaps, matching the sidebar.
- GET /updates/: one card per updater (Dell, iPXE, Blancco, BPRT) with
its state, a Check now / Open action and details in accordions; the
shared download cap is a small popover.
- Dell applies list: one line per apply titled by its first change
('Latitude 5350 pack A11 to A12', model looked up in the maps) and
'and n more'; the chip says how many written files are unchanged since
the apply. The body lists every change, skipped item, error and file.
- dell_updates.file_status(): per file an apply wrote, unchanged /
changed / missing by content hash, the same test rollback uses.
describe(), history_view() and rollback_preview() build on it.
- GET /updates/dell/rollback/<id>: review a rollback before doing it,
with the files that would be restored and a diff of each. The POST
route is unchanged; both forms can return to the overview.
- One line per entry: position, model tokens, pack, OS, size and status
chips; family, friendly name, osId, folder, zip state, Dell hint and
the verbatim lint findings are in the row body.
- Status chips compare the staged map with the saved one: New, Edited,
Moved from #n, Removing, the worst current finding, and 'Clears on
save' / 'Clears n' when the staged changes resolve this entry's
findings. The toolbar and a sticky save bar show lint now and after.
- Removing an entry is staged with Undo remove instead of deleting the
row; Undo edit puts an edited entry back.
- Reordering moved into the row menu (Move up / down / to position).
The Move dialog shows the order after the move and re-lints the staged
map with the move applied, listing any new errors before staging it.
- An edit that changes the tokens but keeps the old friendly name is
flagged in the row and in the review step.
- Filters: Win11/Win10 with counts, 'Findings or unsaved', 'Zip
problems' (missing, trap and case); a status key explains the chips.
- _image_header.html: new header and underline tabs for every image tab;
the shared review modal and diff use the design tokens.
Imaging floor (/imaging, /imaging/tiles):
- One line per PC: status chip, serial with machine number, hostname
and IP, stage text with a segmented stage track, one action plus a
'...' menu. Everything else (description, error, timestamps, Intune
ID + QR, Set category / ARTS links, LAPS QR, log tail) is in the row's
expandable body.
- Order: failed, needs action (stage 7), in progress, done; log-only
bays fold into one collapsed group. imaging_status.floor_state() and
floor_order() compute this.
- Status filter buttons with live counts next to the text filter. SSE
refresh, expanded-row memory and LAPS handling are unchanged.
- Stage text is never truncated; BIOS updates and erasing are bold.
Overview (/):
- Services popover, technician to-do line, the six most urgent floor
rows (?limit=6 partial, refreshed every 15 s), and image cards with
lint warnings, map errors and missing zips as separate chips. New,
clone, delete and unattend stay on the cards' menus.
Copy buttons are now handled once in static/app.js, with a fallback for
plain-http pages where navigator.clipboard is unavailable.
- static/pxe-ui.css: the redesign's colour tokens (light and dark),
shell, chips, stage track, expandable rows, menus and buttons. The
legacy tokens (--bg-card, --border, --text-light, ...) alias onto the
new ones so pages not yet redesigned blend in.
- base.html: new sidebar (Operate, Images, Updates, Tools) with the GE
Aerospace logo on the brand blue, to-do count, theme toggle with
aria-pressed, and a menu button on narrow screens. The to-do banner is
now a one-line strip. Skip link and <main> landmark added.
- _ui.html: Jinja macros for chip, track, the actions menu and the page
header.
- Report view: the hero summarised only the first erasure, so a drive whose
Purge failed and Clear fallback succeeded showed Failed while the list said
Successful. It now uses the per-drive outcome (report_result) and lists the
standards that wiped each drive.
- To-do and ServiceNow: reports with no usable document id could never be
ticked or cleared (400). They are now tracked by file name (file:<name>).
- Imaging: the LAPS password field is masked, with a Show/Hide toggle.
- Imaging: succeeded sessions not updated for ACTIVE_WINDOW_HOURS are hidden
from the dashboard (failed and in-progress always stay), with Show all.
- Enrollment: the active SFLD package can no longer be deleted, which left
ppkg.conf pointing at a missing file; its row is marked Active.
- Import: confirm before importing, saying upload-folder sources are moved
and same-name files in the image are overwritten.
Updates group:
- Dell drivers and BIOS: check Dell's catalogs against all three driver maps
and models.txt, download with a shared speed cap, repack, preview, apply
with backups and rollback.
- iPXE boot files: check GitHub for the signed Secure Boot set, verify the
sha256 and each file's signer, install atomically, roll back. Includes the
by-hand procedure.
- Blancco: upload a release, stage it, test-boot it from the menu, activate,
roll back.
- BPRT sync: validate a batch uploaded from the MediaCreator Lite cache
(scripts/windows/Sync-BPRT.ps1 or a zip), show the diff, swap with the site
overlay files kept.
Images: one sidebar entry per image with Overview, Drivers, Unattend and OS and
Packages tabs. Every save shows a diff first, keeps the file's format, makes a
backup and can be undone. Driver lint runs inline.
Enrollment: upload standard/engineer MCL packages, one per tenant/purpose,
with archive and restore. Hardware coverage counts engineer as Win11.
WinPE now reports each machine's WMI model, manufacturer, Dell system
SKU and BIOS version to /hardware/seen (winpe-status-push.ps1, best
effort, wmic only). The webapp records every model seen and checks it
against what the server has:
- each image's Deploy/Control/HardwareDriver.json, matched exactly as
PESetup's GetDriverByModel does (as reimplemented in
lint-driver-catalogue.py), plus whether the pack's zip is on disk;
- the WinPE BIOS manifest (substring match like check-bios.cmd).
/hardware lists every model with per-image driver status and BIOS
status. A model missing a Win11 pack or a BIOS entry becomes item 5 on
the Technician To-Do (and the banner count) until the pack/BIOS is added
or it is dismissed. Virtual machines are ignored.
Also deploys the repo winpe-status-push.ps1 over the live copy, which
predated the -CurrentStage/-StageIndex parameters startnet.cmd passes
for the BIOS-flash stage, so that status post was failing.
Webapp: config.DISPLAY_TZ (default America/New_York) and a local_dt
filter that renders datetimes, ISO strings and Unix timestamps as e.g.
"2026-10-05 13:54 EDT", DST included. Used for the ServiceNow tick list,
technician to-do, imaging tiles and detail page; timestamp_fmt (reports,
backups, enrollment) goes through it too instead of relying on the
process TZ. CSV report_date is Eastern with its offset. Evidence-pack
months are Eastern calendar months, so a wipe late on the 31st lands in
that month rather than the next.
Blancco: init points the new root's /etc/localtime at America/New_York
so the GUI clock is local. Report timestamps keep their explicit
offset; report.utc_offset stays 0 since a fixed offset cannot follow DST.
Report file names stay UTC, as Blancco's own Save names them.
The theme sets white-space: nowrap on every table cell, so the
ServiceNow tick list's destruction note (and the to-do failure column)
ran as one line and pushed the Done buttons off to the right. A
td.wrap utility lets prose cells wrap within 16-28rem.
Each SSE/poll refresh replaces the tiles' HTML, so the nested Log tail
<details> snapped shut on every update while a wipe was running. Its
open state is now remembered per tile in localStorage like the tile
itself, and its scroll position is kept: following the bottom keeps
following new lines, scrolled up stays put.
Technician To-Do (sidebar link with a count, and a banner on every page
while anything is open) lists the playbook steps the server cannot do:
1. wipes still to tick on the Onsite Bin RITM (ENT-045/159)
2. monthly evidence packs to upload to Box (ENT-056/158), Mark uploaded
3. drives that failed to wipe, to destroy (COD recorded)
4. reports Blancco could not upload to the cloud (Resolved)
Marks are stored in the Blancco state file; the counts are cached for 60s
and refreshed on every mark, ServiceNow tick and cloud-status post.
Results are now judged per drive. Blancco keeps every attempt in the
report, so a NIST Purge that failed followed by a successful Clear
fallback on the same drive appeared as two entries, and the Reports page
rolled the whole report up to Failed. 20 such wipes since May showed as
Failed; they were wiped (the work instruction counts the fallback as a
success). The CSV marks those rows "Fallback: ... then erased with ...".
One genuine failure remains: HNMD1V3, Seagate Z500R4KG, 2026-08-11.
Automates the Blancco parts of the onsite-support CMMC playbook:
- ENT-056/158 evidence pack: /reports/evidence?month=YYYY-MM returns
ENT-056_<Site>_<YYYY-MM>.zip (summary.csv, README, each report's XML
and PDF). pxe-blancco-evidence.timer saves last month's pack to the
reports share's evidence/ folder on the 1st (Persistent).
- ENT-045/159 ServiceNow tick list: /reports/servicenow lists recent
reports as "Wiped" or "Blancco Wipe failed" with a pre-written
destruction note, copy buttons and Done (CSRF-protected).
- Cloud upload: blancco-progress.py posts each report's upload result
("Sending report document id" -> "Report sent to MC") to
/reports/cloud-status (CSRF-exempt like /imaging/status); the Reports
page and the CSVs show it, so a wipe missing from BMP is visible.
- CSV gains failure_reason (exception messages, failed steps, error
counts), business_location and cloud_upload.
- Preferences: business_location "West Jefferson" (config.BLANCCO_SITE)
and pdf+xml reports; the report copier now copies the PDF too, named
after its XML. .part and hidden files are not listed as reports.
State (cloud confirmations, ServiceNow ticks) is a JSON file at
/var/lib/pxe-webapp/blancco-state.json, off the report share.
Sessions with source/pctype "blancco" (posted by blancco-init.sh and
blancco-progress.py) now render with their own stage labels
(Downloading, Starting, Licensing, Erasing, Erasure finished, Report
sent, Wipe complete; Erasure FAILED on failure), a WIPE badge with the
drive percentage instead of "no DeviceId", the current step beside the
stage, and an Erasure reports link. The drive percentage is folded into
the bar across stage 4. The LAPS QR card is hidden for Blancco tiles.
Also render the bar percentage as an integer: round() returns a float,
so every tile showed e.g. "57.0%".
/reports/export?range=1m|3m|6m|12m&format=csv|zip. CSV has one row per
erased drive (system and drive serials, standard, result, times, licence
consumption id). ZIP holds the original XML/PDF reports plus summary.csv.
Reports are selected by the date inside each XML, falling back to mtime
only when it is missing. Exports are audit-logged.
The prior 'nest shopfloor menu as a tab' commit only captured the shopfloor_menu.html deletion - the git add also named the just-removed file, which errored the add and staged nothing else. This commits the actual integration that was already deployed to preview and prod: startnet_editor GET passes shopfloor_items/shopfloor_available, the Shopfloor Sub-Menu tab pane + sf-prefixed JS in startnet_editor.html, /shopfloor-menu redirects into the tab, and the sidebar 'startnet.cmd' -> 'Boot Menu' rename.
The shopfloor sub-menu editor is now a 'Shopfloor Sub-Menu' tab inside the startnet editor (it IS a sub-menu of the boot menu), not a separate page - sf-prefixed IDs avoid clashing with the top-level Boot Menu tab. /shopfloor-menu GET + save now redirect back into that tab; standalone shopfloor_menu.html removed. Sidebar 'startnet.cmd' renamed to 'Boot Menu'.
Replace the hardcoded GEA Shopfloor PC-type sub-menu with a data-driven one:
- menu.json on the enrollment share lists the shopfloor items {key=PCTYPE, label, hint, enabled}; key must match a shopfloor-setup/gea-shopfloor-* handler dir.
- select-shopfloor-type.ps1 renders it in WinPE and writes the chosen PCTYPE (mirrors the CMM bay picker); startnet.cmd runs it and falls back to the baked-in menu if the share/picker is unavailable.
- Webapp /shopfloor-menu editor: reorder/rename/hide/add items; the PC-type is a dropdown of existing handler dirs (can't wire a choice to a non-existent type); writes menu.json. Nav link under Tools.
Kills the duplicated-knowledge problem (menu list was hardcoded in startnet AND the handler dirs AND site-config); add a PC-type = drop in the handler dir + it appears in the menu.
A CRLF file re-CRLF'd (e.g. sed adding \r to already-CRLF lines) yields \r\r\n; the old _split_lines left a stray \r that split into a blank line between every line, so parse_boot_menu/settings/lint saw a garbled file and returned nothing. Now collapse any run of CR before a newline. Also re-deployed a clean-CRLF startnet.cmd into the live boot.wim (the earlier sed-based deploys had doubled the CR).
Rebuilt the /startnet editor (Fable/Opus 4-stage build) into tabs:
- Settings: server IP (+ menu timeout/default when a choice construct exists) as form fields; apply rewrites only the targeted tokens.
- Boot Menu: add/remove/reorder image entries; regenerates only the menu echo/dispatch + action blocks, refuses reorders that would desync the enrollment %choice% router.
- Raw: full-text editor (still source of truth) with line-number gutter, batch syntax highlighting, a lint panel (unmatched goto/label, CRLF), and diff-vs-current.
- History: timestamped snapshots on every save, per-row diff + restore.
New wim.py helpers (framework-free): parse/apply_settings, parse/apply_boot_menu, lint_startnet, save/list/read_snapshot, unified_diff; BACKUPS_DIR=/var/lib/pxe-webapp/startnet-backups.
Fable review fixed a CRITICAL pre-existing bug: update_startnet's newline=CRLF write retranslated posted CRLF into \r\r\n, corrupting boot.wim on every raw save; now normalizes to LF first. Also fixed a false CRLF lint warning (verbatim read) and menu payload validation. All JS inline (no CDN).
startnet.cmd now sources SOURCE_PPKG/PPKG_VER/PPKG_EXP from \\<pxe>\enrollment\ppkg.conf (baked-in values kept as fallback if the file is missing). The webapp writes ppkg.conf on upload for standard GCCH_..._v<ver>.ppkg files: version parsed from the filename, optional expiry field (blank keeps current), so a new ppkg goes live at next boot with no startnet/boot.wim edit. Enrollment page shows the active ppkg. ppkg.conf seeded on the share (v4.16) and the ppkg.conf-aware startnet.cmd deployed into boot.wim.
Image import previously full-copied everything and rmtree'd existing target dirs on every run. Replaced the shutil copy/move/copytree/rmtree with deploy.sync_tree(), which shells out to rsync -a --checksum: files whose content already matches the target are skipped, only new or changed files are written, and existing target files not in the source are left untouched (merge, not mirror). move=True uses --remove-source-files (frees the SMB upload dir) and prunes emptied source dirs. Applies to the Deploy import, the _shared redirections, and the root-level items. Big re-imports now only rewrite what actually changed.
- Accessibility: dark ink (#00003d) on warning/success buttons, badges, and success alert - white text on #ff9500/#0ad64f failed WCAG AA (~2:1); dark-on-bright now passes.
- Heading hierarchy: sidebar brand h1 -> div.brand-title (with matching CSS selector), and standardized all page-header titles to a single <h1> per page (8 templates were h2).
- Prefix-safe modal JS: dashboard/backups/reports/enrollment delete+clone actions now build their form action from url_for(...'__K__'/'__F__').replace(...) instead of hardcoded paths, so they survive a URL-prefix mount.
Adopt the shopdb-flask visual language across the PXE webapp (presentation only, Flask/Jinja logic unchanged):
- New static/pxe-theme.css: GE Aerospace palette (atmosphere-blue sidebar, sky-blue primary, avionics-green), Inter font stack, light/dark theming via data-theme + localStorage (key pxe-theme) with system-pref fallback, and card/button/table/form/badge/alert component styles layered over Bootstrap.
- base.html: shopdb-style sidebar (logo + title, nav sections, footer light/dark toggle) + theme boot script.
- All 13 content templates restyled to the new page-header + card/table/badge vocabulary; unattend_editor grouped per unattend-UX research.
- Fixed a pre-existing CRITICAL bug found during review: nested <form>s in image_config.html made Adopt submit the delete form and Delete-selected post every orphan filename regardless of checkboxes; split into standalone forms wired via the form= attribute.
Built by a Fable-orchestrated Opus workflow (17 agents). All 14 templates parse clean under Jinja2.
Drop ge-standard/ge-engineer/ge-shopfloor-lockdown/ge-shopfloor-mce from image_types + standard_types, both startnet boot menus (choices + labels + net use), and the webapp IMAGE_TYPES/FRIENDLY_NAMES. Fleet is gea-* only; the empty ge-* winpeapps stub dirs were removed on the live share.
Imaging dashboard
- services/imaging_log_tail.py: parses dnsmasq leases, Apache access log,
Samba per-host log files, and dnsmasq syslog (DHCP/TFTP). Synthesizes
inferred sessions keyed by MAC for bays that have only touched the boot
chain but not yet pushed to /imaging/status. Active window 90 min.
- imaging_status.list_sessions() merges inferred sessions into the dashboard
list. Real client-pushed sessions win for the same MAC.
- imaging_status: stage_history field tracks every stage transition (capped
30); sidecar .log file per serial records every log_lines push uncapped
(read_full_log() caps detail-page response to 1 MB).
- delete_session/delete_all_sessions clean up sidecar .log too.
- New SSE endpoint /imaging/stream emits a session-list hash every 5s.
Client fetches /imaging/tiles (HTML partial) on hash change and swaps
#imaging-tiles innerHTML. Polling fallback at 15s if SSE drops.
- Tile-swap preserves scroll, filter input, expanded state via localStorage,
and any LAPS input the operator is mid-pasting (swap skipped when a
laps-input is focused).
- imaging.html: removed 15s location.reload(). Added live-status dot in
header (gray idle / green SSE connected / red SSE lost).
- _imaging_tiles.html: shared partial used by both /imaging full render and
/imaging/tiles SSE refresh. Inferred bays render with yellow border +
log-inferred badge + no progress bar (stage_index inference is coarse).
- imaging_detail.html (new): per-bay forensics page at /imaging/session/
<serial>. Session metadata grid, stage timeline table, full sidecar log
with truncation indicator, Copy-support-summary button. Linked from each
client-pushed tile.
- qr-render.js exposes window.renderAllQRs() so the SSE swap can re-render
Intune device-ID QRs in the swapped-in tiles.
Image management
- services/image_registry.py: JSON registry of image types at
{SAMBA_SHARE}/image-registry.json. Bootstraps from baked-in
config.IMAGE_TYPES on first run. create/clone/delete/rename_friendly
mutate the file then call reload() which rewrites config.IMAGE_TYPES +
config.FRIENDLY_NAMES in place. Sidebar reflects on next request.
- app.py routes: /images/new, /images/<t>/clone, /images/<t>/delete (with
optional content-wipe checkbox), /images/<t>/rename.
- dashboard.html: + New image type button + Clone/Delete per row, all in
Bootstrap modals with confirmation copy.
- Clone copies Deploy/ tree but preserves symlinks to shared dirs (Out-of-
box Drivers, Operating Systems, Packages) so disk usage stays low.
- Delete with content checked unlinks symlinks (does not follow into shared
dirs).
Driver / package upload + orphan adoption
- services/images.py: upload_driver, adopt_orphan, remove_orphans,
upload_package. Filename sanitization blocks path traversal.
- app.py routes: /images/<t>/drivers/upload, /images/<t>/drivers/adopt,
/images/<t>/drivers/orphans/delete, /images/<t>/packages/upload.
- image_config.html: Upload .zip button + modal on Drivers section. Orphan
drivers card-footer rebuilt as interactive list with per-row Adopt inline
form (family + destinationDir inputs) and bulk select+delete.
- Upload .zip on Packages section with optional destinationDir field that
appends a packages.json entry.
Configuration
- config.py: new env vars DNSMASQ_LEASES, APACHE_ACCESS_LOG, SAMBA_LOG_DIR,
DNSMASQ_SYSLOG for the log-tailer.

The dashboard Clear-all button posts to /imaging/delete-all but the form
was missing the hidden _csrf_token input that the rest of the webapp's
POST forms include, so the endpoint would reject the request when CSRF
enforcement is active.
New /imaging/delete_all endpoint wipes every per-bay JSON in IMAGING_DIR
via imaging_status.delete_all_sessions(). Template adds "Clear all"
outline-danger button next to the count badge, gated on sessions list
non-empty, with confirm() prompt naming the count.
Deployed via scp + systemctl restart pxe-webapp on 172.16.9.1.

winpe-status-push.ps1 now accepts -CurrentStage / -StageIndex
params so callers can override the default "WinPE: PESetup / WIM
apply" string. Backwards compatible.
startnet.cmd: after the existing initial WinPE status push,
inspect $BIOS_STATUS for the "->" marker that check-bios.cmd
writes when an update was actually applied or staged. If present,
fire a second idx=1 push with stage="WinPE: BIOS firmware update -
<status>". No-op for clean "up to date" / "no update in catalog"
runs.
imaging.html: at stage_idx=1 with "bios" in current_stage, swap
friendly label to "Updating BIOS firmware" with a do-NOT-power-off
hint. Bays without firmware updates show the default "Booting from
PXE" label as before.
boot.wim startnet.cmd updated via wimupdate so live PXE clients
pick it up at next boot.

Monitor's Get-Snapshot already tracks Phase 1-5 (Intune Registration,
Device Configuration, Software Deployment, Credentials, Lockdown).
The webapp dashboard only saw a single idx=7 push for the entire
post-PPKG / pre-lockdown window, so the friendly label couldn't
reflect "where is this bay actually". Operator looking at the
dashboard had no idea whether to assign category or hit ARTS for
lockdown next.
Monitor now pushes additional idx=7 entries as it crosses Phase
boundaries:
- On DeviceId capture: "Intune Device ID captured" (existing)
- On Phase 2 done (SFLD policy delivered = category was assigned):
"Phase 2 SFLD policy delivered (device configuration)"
- On Phase 1-4 all complete: "Phases 1-4 complete - ready for
lockdown (ARTS request)"
- On lockdown done: idx=8 (existing)
imaging.html maps the stage_string substring to friendly labels:
- default idx=7 -> "Registered - assign category"
- 'sfld policy' / 'phase 2' -> "Phase 2 - device configuration"
- 'credentials' / 'phase 4' -> "Phase 3 / 4 - DSC + credentials"
- 'ready for lockdown' / 'request lockdown' -> "Ready - request
lockdown" (hint: click ARTS request)
Operator now knows exactly when to act vs when to wait.

Previous /imaging/<serial>/laps clear path used update_session() to
re-feed state minus laps_password. But update_session MERGES payload
into existing state - it cannot delete a key the existing state
already has. The laps_password persisted on disk across the "clear"
POST, then came back into the page on next reload.
Fix: bypass update_session for the clear case. Read the session JSON
directly, pop laps_password, write via atomic tempfile-rename. Same
write pattern update_session uses for consistency.

Was hiding LAPS QR section until idx=7 pushed with a DeviceId.
Operator couldn't paste a password if Monitor hadn't gotten around
to capturing the DeviceId yet. The QR encoding doesn't depend on
DeviceId - it's just the password being encoded - so the section is
useful any time the bay is past the LAPS reboot.
Drop the {% if s.intune_device_id %} gate. LAPS section now appears
in every expanded tile.

localStorage-backed set of serials at key 'imaging-expanded'. On
DOMContentLoaded, walk each .imaging-card; if its data-serial is in
the set, set card.open=true. On every <details> toggle, update the
set. Refresh no longer collapses the tile the operator was looking
at.
Per-browser state (localStorage), no server round-trip.

Extended the data-filter attribute to include:
- friendly stage label (e.g. "awaiting intune lockdown")
- "stage-N" token (e.g. type "stage-7" to find idx=7 bays)
- status string (in_progress / succeeded / failed)
Use cases:
- Find all bays waiting on lockdown: type "lockdown"
- Find all bays at the same stage: "stage-7"
- Find failed bays: "failed"
- Find succeeded bays: "succeeded"

Tile is now <details>. Always-visible summary:
- QR (96px)
- serial / hostname / pctype / machine# / status badge
- friendly stage label + N/M badge + pct
- progress bar
Click to expand. Body shows:
- friendly stage hint
- Intune device id row with [copy] [set category] [ARTS request]
- metadata one-liner (started / last / MAC / raw current_stage)
- error banner (if any)
- LAPS password QR generator
- log tail
- Clear button
ARTS button links to https://arts.dw.geaerospace.net/requests/type
for kicking off a new lockdown request (Intune-side step happens
externally; this is a deep-link for convenience).
Stage 7 wording: "Awaiting Intune lockdown" (was "awaiting category /
lockdown" - confusing when category was already assigned). Hint
explicitly mentions category check for cases where it isn't yet set.
