⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Handle d_malloc failure before reading the program file

d_malloc can return nullptr (especially with MIN_HEAP_SIZE constraints). The current code immediately reads into programText, which will crash on allocation failure. Please guard and bail out cleanly.

🛠️ Suggested fix 
   programFileSize = programFile.size();
   programText = (char *)d_malloc(programFileSize+1);
+  if (programText == nullptr) {
+    ERROR_ARTI("ARTI-FX: Out of memory allocating program text (%u bytes)\n", programFileSize + 1);
+    programFile.close();
+    return false;
+  }
   programFile.read((byte *)programText, programFileSize);
   programText[programFileSize] = '\0';

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

programText using d_malloc can return nullptr; before calling programFile.read
or dereferencing programText, check the result of d_malloc and handle failure
(e.g., log an error via the existing error/reporting mechanism and return or

programFile.read((byte *)programText, programFileSize) if null, and ensure any
resources (like programFile) are closed or cleaned up before bailing; reference
programFileSize, programText, d_malloc, and programFile.read to locate and
implement this guard.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Free partially allocated FFT buffers on failure.

If vImag or pinkFactors allocation fails, vReal stays allocated and you return false, keeping the heap under pressure and hindering recovery. Free any already-allocated buffers before returning.

🛠️ Proposed fix 
-  if ((vImag = (float*) d_calloc(samplesFFT, sizeof(float))) == nullptr) return false;
+  if ((vImag = (float*) d_calloc(samplesFFT, sizeof(float))) == nullptr) {
+    d_free(vReal);
+    vReal = nullptr;
+    return false;
+  }

+    d_free(vImag);

In `@usermods/audioreactive/audio_reactive.h` around lines 457 - 464, The
allocation sequence allocates vReal then vImag then pinkFactors but returns
early on failure without freeing any earlier allocations; update the failure
paths in the allocation block so that if vImag allocation fails you call
d_free(vReal) before returning false, and if pinkFactors allocation fails you
call d_free(vReal) and d_free(vImag) (and p_free(pinkFactors) only if non-null)
before returning false; use the existing d_free and p_free helpers and the same
null-check style used elsewhere to avoid leaks (references: vReal, vImag,
pinkFactors, d_calloc, p_calloc, d_free, p_free).

⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Guard d_calloc failure before populating the index array.

If d_calloc returns nullptr, the loop dereferences it and crashes. Add an early return on allocation failure.
