Adds a native Android TV application that runs the full LedGrab Python
server in-process via Chaquopy. Captures the TV box screen using the
MediaProjection API and exposes the existing web UI on the device's
local network — users configure via phone/tablet browser.
Android (new /android/ module):
- Kotlin shell: MainActivity, CaptureService (foreground service),
ScreenCapture (MediaProjection + ImageReader), PythonBridge (Chaquopy).
- Polished Leanback-themed UI with QR code for easy web UI access.
- AGP 8.9 + Chaquopy 17 + Gradle 8.11 (avoids the AGP 8.7 thread-lock bug).
- Pre-built pydantic-core wheels for arm64-v8a, x86_64, x86 cross-compiled
with maturin + Android NDK, linked against Chaquopy's libpython3.11.so.
Python server platform guards:
- New utils/platform.py with is_android()/is_windows()/is_linux() helpers.
- Guard every top-level import of desktop-only packages (mss, psutil,
sounddevice, pyserial, PyAudioWPatch, etc.) with try/except ImportError.
- Android-incompatible calls gated with None-checks so the server runs on
reduced capabilities on Android (no CPU/RAM metrics, no mss displays).
- utils/image_codec.py gains a Pillow fallback for resize + JPEG encode
when cv2 is unavailable; all internal cv2.resize callers migrated.
- New android_entry.py start_server/stop_server invoked from Kotlin.
- get_displays API falls back to best available engine when mss fails.
New capture engines:
- MediaProjectionEngine: receives RGBA frames pushed from Kotlin through
a thread-safe queue; caches last frame for static-screen previews.
- ScrcpyClientEngine: optional H.264 streaming via scrcpy-client library
(priority 10, overrides the ADB-screencap engine when installed).
Frontend:
- Tab loaders previously required an apiKey; now correctly treat
"auth disabled" as authenticated (Android has no auth by default).
- Re-trigger the active tab's loader after loadServerInfo resolves
authRequired, since initTabs runs earlier.
- Add i18n keys for the demo / mediaprojection / scrcpy_client engines.
Docs:
- TODO.md: follow-ups for multi-ABI wheel rebuilds, CI pipeline, USB
serial LED controllers, root-only capture, perf metrics abstraction.
- CLAUDE.md: Android dependency sync policy (pip --exclude doesn't exist).

Declutters the repo root by consolidating build-common.sh,
build-dist.sh, build-dist-windows.sh, build-dist.ps1, and installer.nsi
into build/. Updates all path references in CI workflows, NSIS installer,
and documentation.
- Add esbuild bundling: JS (IIFE, minified, sourcemapped) and CSS into
single dist/ files, replacing 15+ individual CSS links and CDN scripts
- Bundle Chart.js and ELK.js from npm instead of CDN (fully offline)
- Serve DM Sans and Orbitron fonts locally from static/fonts/
- Fix dashboard automation card stretching full width (max-width: 500px)
- Fix time_of_day condition not localized in automation cards
- Add Chrome browser tools context file for MCP testing workflow
- Update frontend context with bundling docs and Chrome tools reference

This is a complete WLED ambient lighting controller that captures screen border pixels
and sends them to WLED devices for immersive ambient lighting effects.
## Server Features:
- FastAPI-based REST API with 17+ endpoints
- Real-time screen capture with multi-monitor support
- Advanced LED calibration system with visual GUI
- API key authentication with labeled tokens
- Per-device brightness control (0-100%)
- Configurable FPS (1-60), border width, and color correction
- Persistent device storage (JSON-based)
- Comprehensive Web UI with dark/light themes
- Docker support with docker-compose
- Windows monitor name detection via WMI (shows "LG ULTRAWIDE" etc.)
## Web UI Features:
- Device management (add, configure, remove WLED devices)
- Real-time status monitoring with FPS metrics
- Settings modal for device configuration
- Visual calibration GUI with edge testing
- Brightness slider per device
- Display selection with friendly monitor names
- Token-based authentication with login/logout
- Responsive button layout
## Calibration System:
- Support for any LED strip layout (clockwise/counterclockwise)
- 4 starting position options (corners)
- Per-edge LED count configuration
- Visual preview with starting position indicator
- Test buttons to light up individual edges
- Smart LED ordering based on start position and direction
## Home Assistant Integration:
- Custom HACS integration
- Switch entities for processing control
- Sensor entities for status and FPS
- Select entities for display selection
- Config flow for easy setup
- Auto-discovery of devices from server
## Technical Stack:
- Python 3.11+
- FastAPI + uvicorn
- mss (screen capture)
- httpx (async WLED client)
- Pydantic (validation)
- WMI (Windows monitor detection)
- Structlog (logging)
