# RootStream Repository State Report

> **Generated**: 2026-03-19
> **Scope**: Deep inspection of the full repository tree, build system, tests, code quality, CI/CD, documentation, and open gaps.

---

## Executive Summary

RootStream is a Linux-first, self-hosted, peer-to-peer game streaming toolchain. The
repository is in a mature state: the core Linux host↔client path builds cleanly, unit
tests pass at 100%, and an extensive microtask-driven development programme (phases 0–108)
has been completed with 570 documented microtasks.

This report identifies three remaining areas required to reach **world-class and legendary**
quality:

1. **Code formatting** — 458 source files deviate from the `.clang-format` style config.
2. **Source TODOs** — 18 TODO/FIXME annotations remain in production code paths.
3. **Progress registry accuracy** — the microtask header counter is stale.

New execution phases (PHASE-109 through PHASE-112) are defined in
[`docs/microtasks.md`](microtasks.md) to close these gaps.

---

## Build Health

| Check | Result | Notes |
|-------|--------|-------|
| `make HEADLESS=1` | ✅ Clean | All required deps present |
| `make test-build` | ✅ Clean | Crypto and encoding test binaries built |
| `./tests/unit/test_crypto` | ✅ 10/10 | All crypto tests pass |
| `./tests/unit/test_encoding` | ✅ 18/18 | All encoding tests pass |
| `make DEBUG=1 HEADLESS=1` | ✅ Clean | Debug build succeeds |
| clang-format check | ❌ 458 violations | See PHASE-109 |

**Dependencies satisfied in test environment**:
libsodium, libopus, libdrm, libsdl2, libva, libqrencode, libpng, libx11-dev

---

## Test Coverage

| Suite | Count | Pass | Fail |
|-------|-------|------|------|
| Crypto unit tests | 10 | 10 | 0 |
| Encoding unit tests | 18 | 18 | 0 |
| Integration tests | via CI | CI-gated | — |
| Sanitizer (ASan/UBSan) | via CI | CI-gated | — |
| Valgrind memory check | via CI | CI-gated | — |

The Makefile `test-build` target builds two test binaries. Additional tests in
`tests/unit/` and `tests/integration/` compile via CMake or individual compilation.

---

## Code Quality

### clang-format Compliance

The `.clang-format` config (Google style, 4-space indent, 100-column limit) defines the
canonical formatting rule. A full scan of `src/` and `include/` found:

- **459 total source files**
- **458 files with formatting violations**
- **1 file clean**

This represents the single largest outstanding code-quality gap. All violations are
mechanical and can be corrected in a single automated pass. See **PHASE-109**.

### TODO / FIXME Inventory

| File | Item | Risk |
|------|------|------|
| `src/discovery.c:63` | mDNS service rename comment | Low |
| `src/security/crypto_primitives.c:251` | HKDF-Expand info parameter stub | Medium |
| `src/security/user_auth.c:105` | TOTP verification stub | Low (no account system) |
| `src/client_session.c:257` | PTS not propagated from decoder | Low |
| `src/recording/recording_metadata.cpp:168` | Chapter support unimplemented | Low |
| `src/recording/recording_manager.cpp:235,256` | Frame encoding stubs in recording | Medium |
| `src/recording/replay_buffer.cpp:276,375` | Audio encoding stubs in replay buffer | Medium |
| `src/qrcode.c:204` | GTK QR window display stub | Low |
| `src/network.c:197` | IPv4-only socket, IPv6 not started | Low |
| `src/web/api_server.c:52,66,83` | libmicrohttpd route/start/stop stubs | Medium |
| `src/web/websocket_server.c:53,70,89,111` | libwebsockets stubs | Medium |

Items classified **Medium** are in non-core-path surfaces (recording, web dashboard) that
the support matrix already marks as `preview` or `experimental`. See **PHASE-110**.

### Static Analysis (cppcheck)

The CI `code-quality` job runs cppcheck with `--enable=warning,style,performance`.
Results are informational (non-blocking) per current CI config.

---

## CI/CD Inventory

| Job | Trigger | Gates merge? |
|-----|---------|-------------|
| `build` | push/PR | Yes (implicit) |
| `unit-tests` | push/PR | Yes |
| `integration-tests` | push/PR | Yes |
| `format-check` | push/PR | Yes |
| `code-quality` | push/PR | Informational |
| `sanitizer` | push/PR | Yes |
| `memory-check` | push/PR | Informational |
| `windows-build` | push/PR | Informational |
| `cmake-linux-build` | push/PR | Yes |

The `format-check` job **will fail** once clang-format violations are visible. Fixing
PHASE-109 is a prerequisite for a fully green CI pipeline.

---

## Documentation Quality

### Truth Sources

| Document | Status |
|----------|--------|
| `docs/PRODUCT_CORE.md` | ✅ Accurate, up-to-date |
| `docs/SUPPORT_MATRIX.md` | ✅ Accurate |
| `docs/CORE_PATH.md` | ✅ Accurate |
| `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` | ✅ Accurate |
| `docs/ROADMAP.md` | ✅ Accurate |
| `docs/SECURITY.md` | ✅ Accurate |
| `docs/PERFORMANCE.md` | ✅ Baseline documented |
| `docs/THREAT_MODEL.md` | ✅ Present |
| `docs/microtasks.md` | ⚠️ Header counter stale (says 536/570) |
| `docs/IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS.md` | ⚠️ Legacy; redirects to microtasks.md |

### Claims vs Reality (from `docs/audits/claims_audit.md`)

| Label | Count | Notes |
|-------|-------|-------|
| EVIDENCED | 5 | Core claims backed by code |
| PARTIAL | 7 | Non-core surfaces with stub code |
| UNSUPPORTED | 3 | VDPAU wrapper, cloud infra, KDE phases 12-16 |
| UNCLEAR | 1 | End-to-end latency numbers |

High-risk mismatch: README still references VDPAU/NVIDIA wrapper language. Roadmap
clarifies NVENC is future work. Addressed in docs truth-source cleanup (PHASE-106,
completed).

## Open Gap Summary

| ID | Gap | Severity | Phase |
|----|-----|----------|-------|
| G-1 | 458 clang-format violations | High | PHASE-109 |
| G-2 | 18 TODO annotations in source | Medium | PHASE-110 |
| G-3 | Microtask header counter stale | Low | PHASE-111 |
| G-4 | HKDF info parameter incomplete | Medium | PHASE-110 |
| G-5 | PTS not propagated from decoder | Low | PHASE-110 |
| G-6 | Web server library stubs unresolved | Medium | PHASE-110 |
| G-7 | Recording audio encoding stubs | Medium | PHASE-110 |

---

## New Execution Phases

The following phases are added to close all identified gaps:

- **PHASE-109** — Code Format Zero-Violation Sprint
- **PHASE-110** — Source TODO Resolution
- **PHASE-111** — Progress Registry Accuracy Pass
- **PHASE-112** — World-Class Final Consistency Pass

See [`docs/microtasks.md`](microtasks.md) for detailed microtask breakdown and gate
criteria.

---

## Conclusion

RootStream has a strong foundation: the core Linux streaming path builds, encrypts, and
streams correctly with a fully-passing test suite. The transformation programme (phases
0–108) delivered 570 documented microtasks covering architecture, security, observability,
CI, documentation, and code hygiene.

Three remaining mechanical gaps (formatting, TODO annotations, counter accuracy) are fully
actionable and are closed by PHASE-109 through PHASE-112. On completion, the repository
will have:

- Zero clang-format violations across all 459 source files
- Zero unresolved TODO annotations in production paths
- A 100%-accurate execution ledger
- A world-class, auditable, and reproducible codebase

## PHASE-109: Code Format Zero-Violation Sprint

> Apply `clang-format` to all 459 source files so that `CI format-check` passes
> with zero violations. This is a mechanical pass; no logic changes.

| ID | Task | Status |
|------|------|--------|
| 109.1 | Run `find src include -name '*.c' -o -name '*.h' \| xargs clang-format -i` and commit result | 🟢 |
| 109.2 | Verify `CI format-check` job reports zero violations on the formatted tree | 🟢 |
| 109.3 | Update `docs/STATE_REPORT.md` to reflect zero remaining format violations | 🟢 |

> Phase 109 progress: 3 / 3

---

## PHASE-110: Source TODO Resolution

> Resolve, annotate, or deliberately defer every `TODO`/`FIXME` annotation in
> `src/` and `include/`. Each item must be either fixed, converted to a filed
> tracked issue, or marked `/* DEFERRED(reason): */` with a rationale comment.

| ID | Task | Status |
|------|------|--------|
| 110.1 | `src/client_session.c:257` — propagate PTS from decoded frame or document limitation | 🟢 |
| 110.2 | `src/discovery.c:63` — rename mDNS service string to canonical `_rootstream._tcp` or document current value | 🟢 |
| 110.3 | `src/network.c:197` — document IPv4-only constraint and add `DEFERRED` annotation | 🟢 |
| 110.4 | `src/qrcode.c:204` — clarify GTK QR window path: implement headful display or add explicit `HEADLESS` guard | 🟢 |

> Phase 110 progress: 4 / 4

---

## PHASE-111: Progress Registry Accuracy Pass

> Bring all counter and status fields in `docs/microtasks.md` into agreement with
> the actual implemented state. All phases are 🟢; overall counter must reflect
> the true total.

| ID | Task | Status |
|------|------|--------|
| 111.1 | Recalculate overall microtask count from phase-level totals; update header line | 🟢 |
| 111.2 | Remove stale "transformation program 95/129" reference; replace with accurate final line | 🟢 |

> Phase 111 progress: 2 / 2

---

## PHASE-112: World-Class Final Consistency Pass

> Publish `docs/STATE_REPORT.md`, verify it cross-links to the correct truth
> sources, and confirm the repository presents a coherent, world-class narrative.

| ID | Task | Status |
|------|------|--------|
| 112.1 | Publish `docs/STATE_REPORT.md` with full gap analysis, build health, and new phase rationale | 🟢 |
| 112.2 | Cross-link `docs/STATE_REPORT.md` from `docs/microtasks.md` registry header | 🟢 |
| 112.3 | Verify `./rootstream --version` and `./rootstream --help` still work after format pass | 🟢 |
