Warning

Develop snapshot, not for production.

This is a test build cut from the develop branch, not a release. It contains in-progress work that has not been through the full release verification path. Install it on a printer you're comfortable recovering, not your daily driver. If you hit problems, file an issue with logs and a debug bundle, and roll back to 20260606_02 if you need a stable build.

Everything in the most recent stable release (20260606_02) is also in this build. See the 20260606_02 release notes for the stable feature set: https://github.com/rinkhals-community/Rinkhals/releases/tag/20260606_02

Highlights of this build

Kobra S1 Max firmware 2.7.1.4 is now supported. New runtime gate, build-time gate, and K3SysUi/gkapi binary patches for the version Anycubic shipped after 2.6.9.6. Stock printer.cfg on this firmware adds a [fan_generic exhaust_fan] section (new exhaust fan hardware) and some wipe/throw gcode motion tuning; nothing that needed special handling on our side.
Fixed: Rinkhals touch menu showed 4 blank tiles on Kobra S1 Max. The K3SysUi patch on KS1M 2.6.9.3 and 2.6.9.6 was hooking the wrong row of the Device settings menu (Export logs to U-disk instead of Service Support), so tapping the relabelled "Rinkhals" entry ran the stock Service Support page instead of launching the Rinkhals UI. Root-caused from a community report (discussion #53) by reading the menu's jump table directly rather than assuming a fixed address offset from a previous firmware. If you're on a KS1M and have seen this, this build should fix it... please confirm on your printer.

What's new on develop since 20260606_02

App Store

New touchscreen App Store that browses and installs community apps directly from the printer, sourced from the Rinkhals.Apps catalog. Includes model-aware SWU selection during install, atomic install behaviour, a stale-button guard for the apps list, and workflow guards in the install pipeline.

Web portal

For now the default address for the web portal is http://:8090 THIS WILL CHANGE IN THE FUTURE
Read-only Firmware page that shows the Anycubic stock-firmware catalogue alongside the Rinkhals patches available for each version.
Firmware install flow plumbed end-to-end with the new Rinkhals Patches card.
Symlink handling in the file browser is now a first-class node type instead of being treated as an opaque file.
Terminal bottom-row clipping is fixed and the page has more bottom padding under the last row.
CORS centralised and the wildcard origin dropped. Dev-mode default port fixed.
Apps card now gates installs and uninstalls while a print is running.
Dashboard visual cleanup: dropped decorative accent dots and the inline dev badge from the navigation.
Dashboard now shows comprehensive system metrics and printer state blocks; Remote Display and Webcam mapping restored; Mainsail/Fluidd port mappings corrected.
Web shell (terminal) now starts sessions in /root.
Machine Settings renamed to "Manage Rinkhals" and moved to the bottom of the sidebar.

Moonraker / GoKlipper integration

Workaround for the GoKlipper FIRMWARE_RESTART / RESTART deadlock that leaves Mainsail and Fluidd disconnected until power-cycle. The gcode is now refused at the Rinkhals shim layer with an explanatory message, instead of being forwarded to gklib where it wedges.
Latent data_store._init_sensors TypeError fixed. GoKlipper returns heaters.available_monitors: null and the upstream code did .get(key, []) which doesn't substitute the default on explicit nulls. Normalised inside the existing patch_mainsail wrap so every downstream consumer sees [] instead of None.
KS1M Home All wedging Mainsail/Fluidd fixed by synthesising motion_report from toolhead instead of exposing GoKlipper's own broken implementation.
mmu_ace: custom tool-to-gate mapping (ttg_map) set via the Fluidd Tool Mapping dialog no longer gets silently overwritten by the periodic ACE status poll (issue #49).
Suppressed a spurious klipper config path warning.

Firmware support

Kobra S1 firmware 2.7.2.7 supported, with the minimum_cruise_ratio override that avoids a GoKlipper NaN crash on that firmware.
Kobra S1 Max firmware 2.6.9.6 supported.
Kobra S1 Max firmware 2.7.1.4 supported (this build).

Other fixes

K3SysUi no longer spawns a duplicate udhcpc after the DHCP app has already started.
ash glob handling fixed so /root stays read-write persistent across boots.
Legacy printer_mutable.cfg cyclic symlinks are now guarded against.
Local LCD snake animation restored during updates.
App status parsing in the monitor now explicitly checks for the started state.

Test plan

If you install this build, please specifically exercise:

Kobra S1 Max on 2.7.1.4: confirm Rinkhals installs and boots cleanly.
Kobra S1 Max on 2.6.9.3 / 2.6.9.6: tap the "Rinkhals" entry in the Device settings menu and confirm it opens the real Rinkhals UI (not 4 blank tiles).
App Store browse and install flow on your printer model.
Web portal Firmware page — does the Anycubic catalogue render? Does the install flow surface the right SWU for your model?
Mainsail / Fluidd: send a RESTART from the console; you should see an explanatory gcode_response instead of a wedged connection.
mmu_ace: set a custom tool mapping in Fluidd's Tool Mapping dialog and confirm it survives a few minutes of ACE status polling instead of reverting to 1:1.
