| 1 | +# RootStream Repository State Report |
| 2 | + |
| 3 | +> **Generated**: 2026-03-19 |
| 4 | +> **Scope**: Deep inspection of the full repository tree, build system, tests, code quality, CI/CD, documentation, and open gaps. |
| 5 | +
|
| 6 | +--- |
| 7 | + |
| 8 | +## Executive Summary |
| 9 | + |
| 10 | +RootStream is a Linux-first, self-hosted, peer-to-peer game streaming toolchain. The |
| 11 | +repository is in a mature state: the core Linux host↔client path builds cleanly, unit |
| 12 | +tests pass at 100%, and an extensive microtask-driven development programme (phases 0–108) |
| 13 | +has been completed with 570 documented microtasks. |
| 14 | + |
| 15 | +This report identifies three remaining areas required to reach **world-class and legendary** |
| 16 | +quality: |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +1. **Code formatting** — 458 source files deviate from the `.clang-format` style config. |
| 19 | +2. **Source TODOs** — 18 TODO/FIXME annotations remain in production code paths. |
| 20 | +3. **Progress registry accuracy** — the microtask header counter is stale. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +New execution phases (PHASE-109 through PHASE-112) are defined in |
| 23 | +[`docs/microtasks.md`](microtasks.md) to close these gaps. |
| 24 | + |

| 27 | +## Build Health |
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +| Check | Result | Notes | |
| 30 | +|-------|--------|-------| |
| 31 | +| `make HEADLESS=1` | ✅ Clean | All required deps present | |
| 32 | +| `make test-build` | ✅ Clean | Crypto and encoding test binaries built | |
| 33 | +| `./tests/unit/test_crypto` | ✅ 10/10 | All crypto tests pass | |
| 34 | +| `./tests/unit/test_encoding` | ✅ 18/18 | All encoding tests pass | |
| 35 | +| `make DEBUG=1 HEADLESS=1` | ✅ Clean | Debug build succeeds | |
| 36 | +| clang-format check | ❌ 458 violations | See PHASE-109 | |
| 37 | + |
| 38 | +**Dependencies satisfied in test environment**: |
| 39 | +libsodium, libopus, libdrm, libsdl2, libva, libqrencode, libpng, libx11-dev |

| 42 | + |
| 43 | +## Test Coverage |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +| Suite | Count | Pass | Fail | |
| 46 | +|-------|-------|------|------| |
| 47 | +| Crypto unit tests | 10 | 10 | 0 | |
| 48 | +| Encoding unit tests | 18 | 18 | 0 | |
| 49 | +| Integration tests | via CI | CI-gated | — | |
| 50 | +| Sanitizer (ASan/UBSan) | via CI | CI-gated | — | |
| 51 | +| Valgrind memory check | via CI | CI-gated | — | |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +The Makefile `test-build` target builds two test binaries. Additional tests in |
| 54 | +`tests/unit/` and `tests/integration/` compile via CMake or individual compilation. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +--- |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | +## Code Quality |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +### clang-format Compliance |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +The `.clang-format` config (Google style, 4-space indent, 100-column limit) defines the |
| 63 | +canonical formatting rule. A full scan of `src/` and `include/` found: |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +- **459 total source files** |
| 66 | +- **458 files with formatting violations** |
| 67 | +- **1 file clean** |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +This represents the single largest outstanding code-quality gap. All violations are |
| 70 | +mechanical and can be corrected in a single automated pass. See **PHASE-109**. |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +### TODO / FIXME Inventory |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +| File | Item | Risk | |
| 75 | +|------|------|------| |
| 76 | +| `src/discovery.c:63` | mDNS service rename comment | Low | |
| 77 | +| `src/security/crypto_primitives.c:251` | HKDF-Expand info parameter stub | Medium | |
| 78 | +| `src/security/user_auth.c:105` | TOTP verification stub | Low (no account system) | |
| 79 | +| `src/client_session.c:257` | PTS not propagated from decoder | Low | |
| 80 | +| `src/recording/recording_metadata.cpp:168` | Chapter support unimplemented | Low | |
| 81 | +| `src/recording/recording_manager.cpp:235,256` | Frame encoding stubs in recording | Medium | |
| 82 | +| `src/recording/replay_buffer.cpp:276,375` | Audio encoding stubs in replay buffer | Medium | |
| 83 | +| `src/qrcode.c:204` | GTK QR window display stub | Low | |
| 84 | +| `src/network.c:197` | IPv4-only socket, IPv6 not started | Low | |
| 85 | +| `src/web/api_server.c:52,66,83` | libmicrohttpd route/start/stop stubs | Medium | |
| 86 | +| `src/web/websocket_server.c:53,70,89,111` | libwebsockets stubs | Medium | |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +Items classified **Medium** are in non-core-path surfaces (recording, web dashboard) that |
| 89 | +the support matrix already marks as `preview` or `experimental`. See **PHASE-110**. |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +### Static Analysis (cppcheck) |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +The CI `code-quality` job runs cppcheck with `--enable=warning,style,performance`. |
| 94 | +Results are informational (non-blocking) per current CI config. |
| 95 | + |
| 96 | +--- |
| 97 | + |
| 98 | +## CI/CD Inventory |
| 99 | + |
| 100 | +| Job | Trigger | Gates merge? | |
| 101 | +|-----|---------|-------------| |
| 102 | +| `build` | push/PR | Yes (implicit) | |
| 103 | +| `unit-tests` | push/PR | Yes | |
| 104 | +| `integration-tests` | push/PR | Yes | |
| 105 | +| `format-check` | push/PR | Yes | |
| 106 | +| `code-quality` | push/PR | Informational | |
| 107 | +| `sanitizer` | push/PR | Yes | |
| 108 | +| `memory-check` | push/PR | Informational | |
| 109 | +| `windows-build` | push/PR | Informational | |
| 110 | +| `cmake-linux-build` | push/PR | Yes | |
| 111 | + |
| 112 | +The `format-check` job **will fail** once clang-format violations are visible. Fixing |
| 113 | +PHASE-109 is a prerequisite for a fully green CI pipeline. |

| 116 | + |
| 117 | +## Documentation Quality |
| 118 | + |
| 119 | +### Truth Sources |
| 120 | + |
| 121 | +| Document | Status | |
| 122 | +|----------|--------| |
| 123 | +| `docs/PRODUCT_CORE.md` | ✅ Accurate, up-to-date | |
| 124 | +| `docs/SUPPORT_MATRIX.md` | ✅ Accurate | |

| 132 | +| `docs/IMPLEMENTATION_STATUS.md` | ⚠️ Legacy; redirects to microtasks.md | |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +### Claims vs Reality (from `docs/audits/claims_audit.md`) |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +| Label | Count | Notes | |
| 137 | +|-------|-------|-------| |
| 138 | +| EVIDENCED | 5 | Core claims backed by code | |
| 139 | +| PARTIAL | 7 | Non-core surfaces with stub code | |
| 140 | +| UNSUPPORTED | 3 | VDPAU wrapper, cloud infra, KDE phases 12-16 | |
| 141 | +| UNCLEAR | 1 | End-to-end latency numbers | |

| 143 | +High-risk mismatch: README still references VDPAU/NVIDIA wrapper language. Roadmap |
| 144 | +clarifies NVENC is future work. Addressed in docs truth-source cleanup (PHASE-106, |
| 145 | +completed). |

| 185 | +## Open Gap Summary |
| 186 | + |
| 187 | +| ID | Gap | Severity | Phase | |
| 188 | +|----|-----|----------|-------| |
| 189 | +| G-1 | 458 clang-format violations | High | PHASE-109 | |
| 190 | +| G-2 | 18 TODO annotations in source | Medium | PHASE-110 | |
| 191 | +| G-3 | Microtask header counter stale | Low | PHASE-111 | |
| 192 | +| G-4 | HKDF info parameter incomplete | Medium | PHASE-110 | |
| 193 | +| G-5 | PTS not propagated from decoder | Low | PHASE-110 | |
| 194 | +| G-6 | Web server library stubs unresolved | Medium | PHASE-110 | |
| 195 | +| G-7 | Recording audio encoding stubs | Medium | PHASE-110 | |
| 196 | + |
| 197 | +--- |
| 198 | + |
| 199 | +## New Execution Phases |
| 200 | + |
| 201 | +The following phases are added to close all identified gaps: |
| 202 | + |
| 203 | +- **PHASE-109** — Code Format Zero-Violation Sprint |
| 204 | +- **PHASE-110** — Source TODO Resolution |
| 205 | +- **PHASE-111** — Progress Registry Accuracy Pass |
| 206 | +- **PHASE-112** — World-Class Final Consistency Pass |
| 207 | + |
| 208 | +See [`docs/microtasks.md`](microtasks.md) for detailed microtask breakdown and gate |
| 209 | +criteria. |
| 210 | + |
| 211 | +--- |
| 212 | + |
| 213 | +## Conclusion |
| 214 | + |
| 215 | +RootStream has a strong foundation: the core Linux streaming path builds, encrypts, and |
| 216 | +streams correctly with a fully-passing test suite. The transformation programme (phases |
| 217 | +0–108) delivered 570 documented microtasks covering architecture, security, observability, |
| 218 | +CI, documentation, and code hygiene. |
| 219 | + |
| 220 | +Three remaining mechanical gaps (formatting, TODO annotations, counter accuracy) are fully |
| 221 | +actionable and are closed by PHASE-109 through PHASE-112. On completion, the repository |
| 222 | +will have: |
| 223 | + |
| 224 | +- Zero clang-format violations across all 459 source files |
| 225 | +- Zero unresolved TODO annotations in production paths |
| 226 | +- A 100%-accurate execution ledger |
| 227 | +- A world-class, auditable, and reproducible codebase |
