Working tree state

  • git status had only: ?? bios/ (untracked from local runs, not part of commit)

Current blocking symptom

  • MPH scripted flow reaches menus but no backend activity for network handshake.
  • Repeated statuses:
    • F:\Projects\ndsrecomp\scratch\wifi-stability\run08\summary.json ? search_game_no_network
    • F:\Projects\ndsrecomp\scratch\wifi-stability\run12\summary.json ? friends_rivals_no_network
  • net_state in logs still shows:
    • wifi_attached=true, network_enabled=true
    • backend=slirp, wfc_provider=wiimmfi, live_backend_active=true, worker_active=true
    • wfc_dns_ip=178.62.43.212
  • Ring/summary counters remain zero for DHCP/DNS/TCP/TLS/UDP in those runs.

Where to start next (highest leverage)

  1. Reproduce from a clean state with both saves:
    • F:\Projects\ndsrecomp\metroidprimehuntersrecomp\scratch\nodump-wfc-20260814\nodump.sav
    • compare with manually successful save path if available.
  2. Run probe command from repo with saved out and inspect:
    • summary.json, net_state.json, net_progress.json, screenshots + runner stderr/stdout.
  3. Verify probe_mph_wfc.py transition sequencing at:
    • nickname-dialog -> multiplayer-menu -> wfc-menu -> friends-rivals and friends-rivals timed waits.
  4. Check for any change in UI state that should trigger activity before exit from friends-rivals.

Notes

  • tools/probe_mph_wfc.py fix in 4a63af6:
    • captures runner --help stderr path as well as stdout
    • summary parsing no longer throws when keys are missing
  • This is a handoff-only request; no new code changes since 4a63af6 in this handoff path.
