* ci(test report): drop no-status testsuites from the PlatformIO report

PlatformIO emits a self-closing <testsuite tests="0"/> row for every test_*
dir x every hardware variant it can't run on native (~4900 rows). They carry
no pass/fail/skip status and bury the suites that actually ran in the dorny
Test Report. Strip them (in generate-reports, before the reporter) so the
report shows only real results. The uploaded artifact keeps the full XML.

* Add bin/run-tests.sh: standardised local test verdict

Self-contained RED/AMBER/GREEN runner: matches all pass/fail spellings and
cross-checks the suite count against test/test_*/ so a missing suite shows AMBER.

* run-tests.sh: detect sanitizer faults + live build/test progress

Two usability improvements to the local verdict script:

1. Sanitizer-fault detection. A sanitizer-instrumented (coverage) build aborts
   non-zero at EXIT on an ASan/LSan/UBSan/TSan fault — most often a LeakSanitizer
   leak — AFTER every test has printed [PASSED], so pio reports it as
   [ERRORED]/SIGHUP with no :FAIL: anywhere and it masquerades as a phantom
   failure. verdict_red now recognises the documented fault signatures (ERROR:/
   WARNING: <San>:, SUMMARY: <San>:, Direct/Indirect leak of, heap-use-after-free,
   runtime error:, etc. — not the benign "failed to intercept" startup noise) and
   reports e.g. "RESULT: RED sanitizer fault — SUMMARY: AddressSanitizer: ...",
   plus the "run the binary bare (gdb hides it via ptrace)" recipe. Also flags the
   "all tests passed but aborted at exit" shape when the report was swallowed.

2. Progress trail. Long rebuilds were silent for minutes. A background heartbeat
   now appends a status line every few seconds to .pio/build/<env>/.runtests-progress
   (always — tail -f it to check a backgrounded/piped run) and live-updates the tty
   for interactive --quiet runs: build = objects recompiled / cached total + ETA;
   test = suites done / expected. The object-count baseline is cached per env in the
   gitignored build dir. Writes never touch the parsed verdict log; tty writes are
   guarded so a no-tty run emits no redirect-open error.

 ## Coding Conventions
 
+### Formatting & the trunk toolchain
+
+`trunk fmt` is the project formatter (`trunk_check` CI rejects unformatted code). For Claude Code users, `.claude/settings.json` ships a PostToolUse hook that runs `trunk fmt --force` on every file the agent writes or edits. The hook is pure sh/grep/sed — no python or jq required — but trunk itself must be able to run:
+
+- Trunk's launcher (`~/.cache/trunk/launcher/trunk`, or `trunk` on PATH) downloads the CLI version pinned in `.trunk/trunk.yaml` on first use and again whenever that pin is bumped. **The launcher needs `curl` or `wget`**; without one it fails with "Cannot download… please install curl or wget", and the hook surfaces that as a warning on every write.
+- No curl/wget available (e.g. a minimal WSL image)? Bootstrap by hand with any Python (PlatformIO bundles one at `~/.platformio/penv/bin/python`): download `https://trunk.io/releases/<ver>/trunk-<ver>-linux-x86_64.tar.gz` and place the `trunk` binary at `~/.cache/trunk/cli/<ver>-linux-x86_64/trunk` (chmod +x), where `<ver>` is the `cli.version` from `.trunk/trunk.yaml`.
+- The hook fails loudly by design (visible warning, non-blocking). Silent no-op formatting hooks hide real breakage — don't re-add `2>/dev/null || true` around the whole thing.
+- More generally: don't assume a stock Linux userland in hooks or helper scripts — minimal WSL/container images may lack `python3`, `curl`, `wget`, and `jq`. Prefer plain sh + coreutils, or PlatformIO's bundled Python for anything heavier.

-Run with: `pio test -e native`
+Run command (preferred — avoids pipe-buffering and the Ubuntu externally-managed-environment error):
+
+```bash
+~/.platformio/penv/bin/python -m platformio test -e native -f test_your_suite > /tmp/test_out.txt 2>&1
+grep -E 'error:|PASS|FAIL|succeeded|failed' /tmp/test_out.txt
+tail -15 /tmp/test_out.txt
+```
+
+Do **not** use `pio test … | tail -N` — it discards build errors and shows stale cached results. Do **not** use `pio test … | grep` — line-buffering makes the terminal appear hung until the process exits. Redirect to a file first, then grep.

+- **Run `trunk fmt` before proposing a commit.** The `trunk_check` CI gate will reject unformatted code. Claude Code runs it automatically via the PostToolUse hook in `.claude/settings.json`; trunk's launcher needs `curl` or `wget` to bootstrap its pinned CLI — see **Formatting & the trunk toolchain** in `.github/copilot-instructions.md` for the no-curl bootstrap procedure.

No multi-paragraph block comments explaining straightforward changes. The diff and commit message carry the rationale; the code carries the behavior.
 - **Use `Throttle` for time-based rate limiting, not raw `millis()` math.** `src/mesh/Throttle.h` provides `Throttle::isWithinTimespanMs(lastMs, intervalMs)` (returns true while inside the cooldown) and `Throttle::execute(&lastMs, intervalMs, func)` (function-pointer form that updates the timestamp on fire). Use these for any "did N ms pass since X" check — raw `millis() > lastMs + N` is rollover-unsafe (breaks after ~49.7 days) and inconsistent with the rest of the codebase. The helpers compute `now - lastMs` with unsigned subtraction, which wraps correctly.

+# Run native PlatformIO unit tests and emit a single, unambiguous RED/AMBER/GREEN verdict.
+#
+# Why this exists: PlatformIO reports failures three different ways ([FAILED], :FAIL:,
+# [ERRORED]) and an all-pass run prints "N succeeded" with NO "0 failed" clause — so naive
+# greps produce false greens (see .notes/test-passfail-filter.md). This script encodes the
+# correct logic once, and cross-checks the number of suites that actually ran against the
+# canonical set in test/ so a suite silently going missing shows up as AMBER, not green.
+#
+# Usage:
+#   ./bin/run-tests.sh                      # run all suites, full RAG + count cross-check
+#   ./bin/run-tests.sh -f test_utf8         # run one suite (no count cross-check)

+#   ./bin/run-tests.sh --quiet              # only print the final RESULT line
+#
+# Exit codes: 0 = GREEN, 1 = RED, 2 = AMBER.
+#
+# The final line is machine-readable, e.g.:
+#   RESULT: GREEN 19/19 suites passed
+#   RESULT: AMBER 17/19 suites ran (missing: test_radio test_serial) — all that ran passed

+//
+// Lockdown/protect support is opt-in at build time. Builds that need it pass
+// -DMESHTASTIC_ENABLE_LOCKDOWN=1. When enabled on nRF52 (CC310 hardware
+// crypto), whether it is ACTIVE is decided entirely at runtime by
+// EncryptedStorage::isLockdownActive()
+// (== a passphrase has been provisioned, i.e. /prefs/.dek exists). A device
+// that has never been provisioned — or that the operator disabled from the
+// client app — behaves exactly like stock firmware: plaintext storage, no
+// redaction, normal logging, normal display.
+//
+// The operator toggles lockdown from the client app:
+//   off -> on : provision a passphrase (AdminMessage.lockdown_auth). The
+//               firmware generates a DEK, encrypts the stored config, and
+//               authorizes the connection.
+//   on -> off : AdminMessage.lockdown_auth { disable=true } with the
+//               passphrase — decrypts storage back to plaintext and removes
+//               the DEK / token / monotonic-counter / backoff files, then
+//               reboots into normal mode. APPROTECT is the one thing that
+//               does NOT revert (see below).
+//
+// MESHTASTIC_LOCKDOWN here is an INTERNAL capability marker. It gates the UI
+// bits (lock screen, pairing-PIN handling). Flash-constrained nRF52 variants
+// that genuinely cannot afford the ~tens-of-KB of crypto + access-control code
+// may also opt out with -DMESHTASTIC_EXCLUDE_LOCKDOWN=1.

+//   MESHTASTIC_ENCRYPTED_STORAGE       — AES-128-CTR + HMAC-SHA256 at-rest
+//   MESHTASTIC_ENABLE_APPROTECT        — UICR APPROTECT capability. The actual
+//                                        one-way burn happens at runtime, only
+//                                        once provisioned, only on non-vulnerable
+//                                        silicon, and is STICKY: disabling
+//                                        lockdown does NOT (cannot) reverse it.

 We keep this separate latest-message cache for this purpose, because:
 
-- it is cleared by an outgoing text message
-- we want to store both a recent broadcast and a recent DM
+- we want to expose both the most recent broadcast and most recent DM independently
+- applets like `DMApplet` and `NotificationApplet` need quick access without scanning the full message history
+
+#### How messages reach the store
+
+Broadcasts and DMs take different paths into `messageStore`:
+
+- **Broadcasts** — `ThreadedMessageApplet::handleReceived()` calls `messageStore.addFromPacket()`. `Events::onReceiveTextMessage()` then updates `latestMessage.broadcast` separately for fast access by `AllMessageApplet` and `NotificationApplet`.
+- **DMs** — `ThreadedMessageApplet` skips DMs entirely. `Events::onReceiveTextMessage()` calls `messageStore.addFromPacket()` directly and stores the result in `latestMessage.dm`.
 
 #### Saving / Loading
 
-_A bit of a hack.._
-Stored to flash using `InkHUD::MessageStore`, which is really intended for storing a thread of messages (see `ThreadedMessageApplet`). Used because it stores strings more efficiently than `FlashData.h`.
+The `LatestMessage` cache is not persisted to its own file. On boot, `InkHUD::begin()` calls `messageStore.loadFromFlash()` first, then `Persistence::loadLatestMessage()` rebuilds the cache by scanning the loaded messages for the most recent broadcast and DM.
 
-The hack is:
-
-- If most recent message was a DM, we only store the DM.
-- If most recent message was a broadcast, we store both a DM and a broadcast. The DM may be 0-length string.
+Text is stored in the firmware-wide shared text pool. Use `MessageStore::getText(msg)` to retrieve it from a `StoredMessage`.

 Applets themselves do also listen separately for various events, but for the purpose of gathering information which they would like to display.
 
+#### Text Messages
+
+`Events::onReceiveTextMessage()` is the central handler for all incoming text messages. It updates the `LatestMessage` cache and, for DMs, also adds the message to `messageStore` (since `ThreadedMessageApplet` only handles broadcasts). See `Persistence::LatestMessage` for details on how the two message types are stored.
+
 #### Buttons
 
 Button input is sometimes handled by a system applet. `InkHUD::Events` determines whether the button should be handled by a specific system applet, or should instead trigger a default behavior
 
 #### Factory Reset
 
-The Events class handles the admin messages(s) which trigger factory reset. We set `Events::eraseOnReboot = true`, which causes `Events::onReboot` to erase the contents of InkHUD's data directory. We do this because some applets (e.g. ThreadedMessageApplet) save their own data to flash, so if we erased earlier, that data would get re-written during reboot.
+The Events class handles the admin message(s) which trigger factory reset. We set `Events::eraseOnReboot = true`, which causes `Events::onReboot` to erase the contents of InkHUD's data directory (`/NicheGraphics/`) and also call `messageStore.clearAllMessages()` to wipe the firmware-wide message store (`/Messages_default.msgs`). Both are cleared during reboot rather than earlier, to avoid data being re-written by applets still running before shutdown.
