Companion to OpenStrap/protocol#31draft until that merges, because
this branch uses its new API; I'll repin the protocol SHA in pubspec.yaml to
the merged commit and mark this ready. Same provenance as that PR: verified
against my own WHOOP 5.0 over live connections, with the official client's
behaviour recovered from its decompiled Android build as the reference.

  • bootstrap follows the official order: GET_HELLO first (identity,
    battery, wear, and the clock verdict from hello's own timestamp — GET_CLOCK
    only as the fallback it really is), the observed 600/500 ms registration
    delays, exactly one SET_CLOCK and only at ≥2 s drift, the advertising-name
    read as the final non-gating step, and a bounded battery-pack lookup when
    hello says charging. Five hello failures across reconnects drop the
    platform bond. gen4 setup is byte-identical to before.
  • the burst count gate is real now. A short burst stores durably WITHOUT
    the trim token and answers the official two-byte failure result, so the
    band re-offers instead of trimming flash it never delivered — previously a
    shortfall was ACKed as success, i.e. silent permanent loss of unbanked
    records. Battery-pack frames count as members (a captured type-54 burst
    failed 27/24 on every retry because they counted nowhere), and so do
    type-47 frames without a decoder (deep buffers, future revisions). Count
    contributions from the event/console characteristic ride the same
    serialized path as data frames, because GATT delivers in true order but
    the app used to reorder internally — found live: a real burst sat
    permanently 4 short and looped through 15 retries. A stuck burst now
    aborts once and latches for the session.
  • commands correlate: originating sequence AND echoed opcode must both
    match, observer installed before the write, per-command PENDING policy,
    no auto-resend. Arming an alarm is judged on the strap's reply — a
    refused arm (invalid time/id/waveform) returns null instead of recording
    an alarm the band doesn't hold (relevant to Smart Alarm does not trigger when scheduled #186), while straps that
    don't echo the sequence keep the old write-is-the-arm behaviour.
  • honest 1 Hz columns: on-wrist and hr-valid stay NULL (body-60 bits
    0-1 are the primary-flags snapshot, not wear; body-15 bit7 is not HR
    validity — disproven on 1.59M records), and the skin-temp −50.00 °C
    unavailable code stores as NULL. A data-only migration retires what
    earlier dev builds banked. No metric read any of the three, so day
    results are unchanged.
  • observability: the band's own condition reports (pages-behind,
    backlog, charge) and haptics terminations (including the wearer's
    double-tap) land in the sync snapshot and logs.

Field-tested on hardware before opening: the first test run caught the
count-ordering bug live (a burst stuck at expected=16/actual=12 through 15
retries); on this build the same band drained 4,549 records in 113 bursts
with every burst counting exactly, straight to HISTORY_COMPLETE, and a
follow-up connect handled mixed bursts (50/50 and 42/42 with 20-31
event/console members) cleanly.

flutter analyze clean; full suite green (~2,056 tests,
--concurrency=1). Heads-up: full-suite CI can occasionally trip on the
pre-existing order-dependent flake in workout_reliability_test.dart
that's #259, unrelated to this branch.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Improved Bluetooth frame processing and command-response handling for more reliable communication.
    • Added conditional wake scheduling and safer device setup checks, including clock and battery-pack validation.
    • Added visibility into strap-condition reports and device identity checks.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Historical synchronization now stops when the connection is terminally stuck.
    • Alarm failures and strap refusals are handled consistently without saving invalid alarm state.
    • Removed invalid stored wear, heart-rate validity, and skin-temperature values.
  • Data & Documentation

    • Updated the local database migration and clarified sample-data field behavior.

Bootstrap now follows the order the strap expects: GET_HELLO goes out
first and its own body answers identity, battery, charge, wear AND the
clock question — the hello timestamp feeds the same verdict logic the
GET_CLOCK reply used, so the read round-trip only happens as the fallback
it actually is. Hello stays best-effort, not a connect gate.

The burst count gate is enforced instead of advisory. A short burst is
stored durably WITHOUT the trim token and answered with the two-byte
failure result, so the strap re-offers the data instead of trimming flash
it never delivered — the old path ACKed success on a shortfall, which was
a silent, permanent loss of unbanked records. Battery-pack frames
(53/54/55) now count as burst members; a captured type-54 checkpoint was
failing 27/24 on every retry because they counted nowhere. The compare is
the one-sided rule with slack 2 after three consecutive failures, capped
at 15 attempts before a single abort.

Command responses are correlated: originating sequence AND echoed opcode
must both match, the observer is installed before the write, PENDING is
non-terminal only for hello and the data range, and nothing is ever
auto-resent. A response matching neither leaves a log trail instead of
satisfying a stranger's await. Five hello failures across reconnects drop
the platform bond and start over; serial/CPU identity is checked and
logged (all-zero serial = the EEPROM-failure signal), never used to drop
the link.

The conditional-wake window uses the official 180 s / 7200 s cadence, the
stored alarm can be run early with the rev-2 body, and the alarm
read-back is a verification signal that never clobbers the user's
displayed alarm.
The strap's own condition reports (event 29) and haptics terminations
(event 100) now land in the offload snapshot and the log: live
pages-behind/backlog/charge from the band's side of the sync, and whether
an alarm ended by timeout, error or the wearer's double-tap. Observability
only — no sync is triggered and no alarm behaviour changes.

Arming an alarm is now judged on the strap's correlated reply instead of
the GATT write. A reply whose outer result is FAILURE/UNSUPPORTED, or
whose alarm status is in the input-rejection family (invalid waveform,
loop count, duration, alarm time or alarm id), returns null so nothing
records an alarm the band refused — previously a refused arm looked
identical to a successful one. An unanswered reply keeps the old
write-is-the-arm semantics so straps that do not echo the originating
sequence still arm; it is logged as unconfirmed for getAlarm() to verify.

RUN_ALARM goes through the same correlation and its [revision, status]
reply is recorded in the snapshot — the paper trail for verifying the
early-wake path on hardware.
Persistence stops writing three values the data never supported. The
on-wrist and hr-valid columns are left NULL: body-60 bits 0-1 are the
primary-flags snapshot, not wear, and body-15 bit7 toggles ~50/50
independent of HR presence across 1.59M retained records (752,820 carry a
valid HR with the bit clear), so both were coin flips dressed as answers.
Skin temperature goes through the sentinel-aware accessor so the AS6221's
-50.00 C unavailable code stores as NULL instead of a temperature. A
data-only v35 migration retires what v34-era builds already banked; the
columns stay in place, nullable, for an honest source if one ever appears.
No metric read any of the three, so day results are unchanged and the
algo version stays put.

The gen5 bootstrap tail now matches the captured client: 600 ms before
notification registration and 500 ms after (the capture shows hello going
out 585 ms after the last CCC write); SET_CLOCK only at two or more whole
seconds of drift, with no BLE write when the clocks already agree (an
uncorrelated or unset RTC still always writes); the advertising-name read
as the final pre-READY command, correlated but never a gate; and when
hello reports charging, a session-owned follow-up asks for battery-pack
info up to five times, five seconds apart, accepting only a reply whose
pack address is real. gen4 setup is byte-identical to before throughout.
Field-found on a live strap (fw 50.40.1.0): a burst sat permanently short
at expected=16 actual=12 through fifteen retries, then the abort restarted
every ~2.5 s. Root cause: GATT delivers notifications in true order across
characteristics, but the app reordered them internally — data frames ride
the serialized offload queue while event/console frames were counted at
notification time, so a burst's members landed in whichever window
happened to be open. The re-offers showed it directly: the starved burst's
console frames surfaced as a growing surplus on the burst before it.

Count-member frames now enter the same serialized queue at their true
arrival position; their PROCESSING stays immediate (wrist/battery/alarm
handling never waits on an offload commit) — only the burst count rides
the queue. The old advisory "completeness would-flag" line claimed
missing/corrupted frames for what were mis-binned members; it was the same
counter as the gate minus slack, so it now says what is actually true: the
burst passed on slack and the band will trim frames we did not count.

Type-47 frames without a decoder are members too: the deep buffers
(v20/v21/v26/v22) and any future firmware's revisions arrive through the
archive path, which counted nothing — on an R22-enabled strap that starves
the gate in exactly the same way. Archived frames now feed the same
per-revision counter the decoded path uses. Gate-dropped records stay
excluded; they are added back separately.

The 15th failed validation is terminal for the session now: one abort,
re-offered markers are dropped without re-validating, and every same-
session drain trigger (periodic, foreground, auto-continue, the backfill
continuation loop) is refused through the single refresh choke point. A
reconnect clears the latch, so a fresh session drains normally.
The docs say the bootstrap sends one SET_CLOCK; a factory-fresh or
far-off RTC was getting two — the clock-absorb handler's own bounded
re-correction fired on the hello reply, and the bootstrap clock step
then wrote again because no correlation existed. A duplicate
persistent-state write is exactly the hazard the no-auto-resend rule
exists for. The absorb handler now stands down inside the bootstrap's
clock window and the bootstrap step is the single writer; outside the
window (RTC-lost events, the periodic re-verify) it corrects itself
exactly as before. Pinned by a test that fails with two writes.

Also writes down, at the battery poll, that the keep-alive polls are a
deliberate deviation from the official no-idle-polling model — retained
as liveness probes, not data sources, with the removal tracked as its
own conformance task rather than done as a drive-by.

Upstream and this branch solved overlapping problems while apart; the
merge keeps whichever half is load-bearing. From main: the single gated
GET_DATA_RANGE consumer (this branch's older ungated sibling block is
gone — it was exactly the double-absorption main's refactor killed), the
dangerous-opcode block at the lowest-level write, the repair guide, the
MT-12 aux-temperature and band-sleep-envelope columns, and the nullable
sensor columns. From this branch: the doc-exact count gate (one-sided
with the failure-dependent slack, fifteen attempts, terminal abort with
a session latch) supersedes main's one-refusal shortfall gate — it is
the same goal, bounded re-delivery after a durable commit, with the
band's actual retry contract and a field capture behind it; the alarm
readback returns as a verification-only signal now that the reply's
byte layout is decoded correctly at the protocol layer (the misdecoded
epoch that got it parked was the revision/active-flag offset bug); and
the archive replay maps records under the same honesty contract as the
live path — no wear or HR-validity bits resurrected, the skin-temp
unavailable sentinel stays NULL. The retire migration renumbers to v46
behind main's ladder.

Set windowOpen when fireNow is returned.

The comment states the window stays open, but windowOpen remains false on this path. The next tick therefore returns openWindow, so the window request is issued one tick after the early wake, and a later _close() cannot emit closeWindow until that extra tick runs. Align the flag with the documented intent.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

register can leak entries that permanently break the sequence-zero fallback.

The timeout arms only when a caller reads PendingCommand.response. If a command is registered and the write path then returns without awaiting and without calling cancel(), the entry stays in _pending for the life of the connection. Two effects follow:

  • _pending grows without bound across a session.
  • deliver refuses every later sequence-zero fallback for that opcode, because sameOpcode.length != 1 now sees the stale entry. Valid replies become unmatched and their callers time out.

Arm the expiry at registration so an unawaited command cannot outlive its timeout. Keep the single-timeout property by driving both paths from the same timer.

🔒 Proposed fix: expire unawaited registrations
   PendingCommand register(
     int seq,
     int opcode, {
     Duration timeout = defaultTimeout,
   }) {
     final p = PendingCommand._(this, seq, opcode, timeout);
     _pending.add(p);
+    // Arm the expiry now, so a command that is registered and never awaited
+    // cannot stay pending and block the sequence-zero fallback for its opcode.
+    p.armExpiry();
     return p;
   }

In PendingCommand, drive the expiry from an explicit timer instead of Future.timeout:

Timer? _expiry;

void armExpiry() {
  _expiry ??= Timer(timeout, () {
    _owner._forget(this);
    if (!_completer.isCompleted) _completer.complete(null);
  });
}

Future<CorrelatedResponse?> get response {
  armExpiry();
  return _completer.future;
}

void cancel() {
  _expiry?.cancel();
  _owner._forget(this);
  if (!_completer.isCompleted) _completer.complete(null);
}

Cancel _expiry in _complete as well.

Apply the all-zero sentinel to name, not only to identifier.

The class treats the address and the name as the same field. usable checks the sentinel on identifier alone. With identifier empty and name set to 00:00:00:00:00:00, usable returns true. The bounded GET_BATTERY_PACK_INFO lookup then accepts the "no pack yet" reply and stops retrying.

Apply the retirement rule to every decoded-row ingress.

_retireDisprovenOneHzColumns runs only in the oldV < 46 upgrade path. importFromDbFile copies decoded_onehz rows with INSERT OR REPLACE, including on_wrist, hr_valid, and skin_temp_c, without calling this normalizer. A pre-v46 export can therefore restore disproven values into a v46 database after migration.

The shared _queueDecodedOneHz write also forwards caller-provided onWrist and hrValid values at Lines 3964-3965. The statement at Lines 3308-3313 that every row stores NULL is not true after such a merge.

Normalize these fields at the import and shared write seams, or run the same cleanup after every merge. Add a regression test that imports a pre-v46 database and verifies that all three values remain NULL.

As per coding guidelines: “When adding or changing a capability, cover every call path, including all raw decode paths and all relevant export/session triggers.”

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use a neutral error message for both null outcomes.

BleEngine.setAlarm returns null when the write fails before reaching the band and when the band explicitly refuses the alarm. The current exception incorrectly reports a refusal for transport failures. Throw Alarm not set and keep the detailed reason in the engine log.

Proposed fix
-      throw Exception('Alarm not set — the strap did not accept it');
+      throw Exception('Alarm not set');

the command-correlation layer is good and i want it. the burst count gate isn't ready.

the gate can trim flash for records we never got. three separate ways:

  1. consecutiveValidationFailures resets only on success — not in beginBurst(). so burst a fails 3 times, burst b arrives, and b's first attempt gets burstCountSlack(3) == 2. short by 2 → passes → commit(token) → band trims two frames we never counted. that directly contradicts the rule the code says it implements ("the first three attempts demand every frame"). the 15-attempt terminal counts across different bursts too, so 15 separate bursts each failing once latches historyStuck while the log says "still short after 15 attempts", which isn't what happened. one line in beginBurst().

  2. on a re-offered HISTORY_END there's no reset — right, since the band re-offers the marker without resending frames. but event/console/puffin frames arriving during the ~37s retry window now go through immediateAndCount and bump the same counter. so a burst short by 3 data frames gets pushed over by three unrelated console logs, then commits and acks. gen5 console traffic is chatty enough for that to happen. the gate compares a total, so it can't tell "the missing frame came back" from "a different frame arrived". freeze the tally at HISTORY_END, or only count members that arrived before the terminal.

  3. there's no isGen5 guard anywhere on this path. the comment this pr deletes is my own contrary evidence — field data showed the gap between expected and actual varies run to run with no fixed offset, and the old hard-fail behaviour gave zero sync progress with "last data" frozen indefinitely. the membership rules here came off gen5 work and were tested on a whoop 5. short by ≥3 on gen4 now means 15 failures → abort → historyStuck latched for the connection. records already banked survive, so it's a stall not immediate loss, but on a full band a stall becomes loss. gate it on gen5 or get gen4 evidence.

same path: 3+ crc-failed frames terminating history for the whole connection is rough on a marginal link, since crc failures never reach receivedTrafficCount and slack caps at 2.

provenance. there's a lot of it — comments citing source documents by name, "official client" references, and one that ships in a runtime log line users can see. plus the pr body. state the fact, never how it was learned. repo's public, force-pushed shas persist, github won't delete a pr. has to be sorted before merge.

merge order. doesn't compile against the pinned protocol — 29 analyzer errors, missing symbols from #31. you say so in the body and it's real: #31 lands, edge repins, then this. also pubspec.lock is committed with a local override baked in (path: "../protocol") — that's a pubspec_overrides.yaml artifact, revert it. the repin belongs in pubspec.yaml.

smaller:

  • ConditionalWakePolicy.fireNow doesn't set windowOpen, so the next tick issues openWindow after the user's already been woken. coderabbit flagged this too, it's right.
  • historyStuck returns before every sub-type including historyComplete, so onComplete() can never fire once latched and awaitComplete() waiters run to timeout.
  • _readClock now needs seq correlation on gen4 and i have no gen4 capture with cmd_response to check the echo against. if gen4 doesn't echo the request seq you get a 3s stall on every connect. the seq-zero fallback probably covers it, but worth one connect log.
  • event/console frames now re-arm the idle watchdog mid-offload, so chatter can keep a genuinely stalled offload alive past 60s.
  • ConditionalWakePolicy, runStoredAlarm and the StrapConditionReport fields have no production caller — that's smart-alarm machinery in a pr called "link conformance". split it out.
  • BatteryPackInfoGate.usable only rejects the sentinel in identifier, so an empty id with a 00:00:... name passes.
  • BurstShortfallGate is dead now — delete it or say why it stays.
  • _mergeFromDbFile still includes decoded_onehz, so a pre-v46 backup re-imports exactly the rows v46 retires. coderabbit's right about that one.

what's genuinely good, so it doesn't get lost in the above: CommandAwaiter/_sendAwaited is well built — observer registered before the write, cancel on write failure, both seq and opcode must match, failAll() on teardown, and the seq-zero fallback refuses rather than guesses when two requests share an opcode. i traced every caller, nothing leaks a completer. judging the alarm arm on the strap's reply so a rejection never persists a phantom alarm is right, and so is letting an unanswered arm still succeed. skinTempCOrNull abstaining on the -50c sentinel instead of banking a number 70c below any wrist is exactly the rule. and gen4's connect chain is structurally unchanged — i traced it end to end. dropping the bogus gen5-only opcodes back to 10/11 is a good catch.
