Internal only: ask Lotus Li (lotusl@nvidia.com) before using it. tactile.fbs carries the per-frame TactileData. tactile_shape.fbs carries the static TactileShape (bind-pose skeleton, taxel layout and skinning) with its own TactileShapeRecord root, so it can be pushed, recorded and replayed on its own collection. Both tables carry their element counts but no device id or shape version: the collection id (live) or MCAP channel (replay) already identifies a stream, and the shape is fixed for the life of the producer's collections. - trackers.toml: generated TactileTracker and TactileShapeTracker, both defaulting to 16 KiB samples; 128 KiB samples failed in the CloudXR runtime's IPC, and 16 KiB is the largest size in use. - Python schema bindings with zero-copy NumPy views and validating constructors (counts are derived from the arrays). - TactileSource and TactileShapeSource; the shape source keeps the last shape, since producers publish it rarely and replay reads one record per update, so the recorded shapes run out after the first few frames. - src/core/AGENTS.md: mypy rejects .shape[i] on schema NumPy properties. - C++ and Python unit tests, and goldens for both schemas.

- TactileShape is its own root_type, with no Record wrapper: it has no capture time. A new manifest key, record_type, lets a generated tracker record its table as itself, at the sample's arrival time, and replay publishes it as recorded; tactile_shape sets it. - Joints are one [TactileJoint] array (bind pose and parent) and taxels one [TactileTaxel] array (position, normal, tangent and the four skinning slots), so per-attribute arrays can no longer disagree in length. TaxelJointIndices and TaxelJointWeights fold into TactileTaxel. - TactileData drops taxel_count, and TactileShape drops joint_count and taxel_count: each vector carries its own length. The Python bindings drop the matching properties. - Internal-only notes and the contact address are removed from the schemas, the manifest, the bindings and the docstrings.

Recordings made with this branch's earlier drafts stop reading; the schemas are not on main, so no other recordings are affected.

Add a generic `metadata` key to the tracker manifest. A pull tracker that sets it gains get_metadata(), and reads the table from a companion collection "<collection_id>/metadata" that the producer feeds with SchemaMetadataPusher. The tracker adopts the first metadata it receives for the session and publishes data only while the producer's metadata matches it, so every frame a consumer sees can be read with get_metadata(). The metadata is recorded once on "<channel>_metadata", before any data it lets through, and replay reads it when the session opens. - The tactile_shape tracker is replaced by `metadata = "TactileShape"` on the tactile tracker. One sample still carries the whole table. No manifest entry sets record_type any more; the key stays for tables recorded as themselves. - SchemaTracker::update() reports whether the collection is present and can skip recording for a tick. - The live and replay impls of a tracker with metadata come from their own templates; the interface, facade, pybind block and recording traits gain `#if @HAS_METADATA@` blocks. - TactileSource reads forces and shape from one TactileTracker, and TactileShapeSource is removed: the tracker now holds the shape. Signed-off-by: Lotus Li <lotusl@nvidia.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A metadata table can outgrow one tensor sample: TactileShape fits about 225 taxels in 16 KiB, and larger samples failed in the CloudXR runtime's IPC. SchemaMetadataPusher now splits the encoded table into TrackerMetadataChunk samples and pushes a few per frame, in a loop for as long as it runs. SchemaMetadataReader reassembles them in any order and with repeats, so a consumer that joins late or drops samples completes the table on a later pass. - tracker_metadata.fbs: each chunk carries an FNV-1a 64 hash of the whole table, its size, the chunk index and count, and its byte offset. The hash tells tables apart and checks the reassembled buffer. - schema/tracker_metadata.hpp: split_tracker_metadata() and TrackerMetadataAssembler. Chunks encode to at most TRACKER_METADATA_CHUNK_SIZE (16 KiB, which replaces TRACKER_METADATA_SAMPLE_SIZE), and a table to at most 16 MiB. - Losing the data collection also drops a partial reassembly, so the producer that comes back is checked against chunks it sent itself. - Python producers get split_tracker_metadata() to push the chunks with a TensorPushTracker. Adds the tracker_metadata golden. Signed-off-by: Lotus Li <lotusl@nvidia.com> Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
examples/tactile exercises the tactile tracker without hardware. The feeder publishes a configurable hand shape and force stream through TensorPushTracker, defaulting to 26 joints and 200 taxels. The printer reports the received shape and endpoint forces, records live sessions, and prints unpaced replay records without mislabeling session polls as sensor frames.

It served TactileShape.joint_parents while that was a [uint32] vector. Joints are now TactileJoint structs, whose parent is read through a strided field view, so nothing calls it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Lotus Li <lotusl@nvidia.com>
record_type let a generated tracker record its table as itself, for the tactile_shape tracker. TactileShape became the tactile tracker's metadata, which SchemaMetadataReader records directly, so no manifest entry sets record_type and every generated tracker records <Table>Record. Remove the key and what only it reached: SchemaTracker's same-type branch and its explicit log times, recorded_payload(), and their test and AGENTS.md note. SchemaTracker keeps update()'s presence result and its record flag, and McapTrackerChannels keeps the explicit-log-time write(), both of which the metadata path uses.

split_tracker_metadata() already rejects a max_chunk_size above TRACKER_METADATA_CHUNK_SIZE with the same std::invalid_argument, so the pusher calls it directly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Signed-off-by: Lotus Li <lotusl@nvidia.com>

Serialize the GUI callbacks and the run() update loop with one lock.
run() calls _consume_source() and _update_rendered_values() on the main thread. Viser runs the synchronous on_click, on_update and on_upload callbacks on its own worker threads. Both paths read and write the same state without a lock: self.document, _taxel_handles, _joint_handles, _bone_handles, _gizmo, _tree_*_inputs, the _programmatic flag, and the controller state.
These are concrete failures:
- Add Taxels:
append_grid_taxelsreplacestaxel_positions,taxel_normalsand the other taxel arrays one at a time. During that window,skin_taxelson the main thread can read arrays of different lengths._build_scene_handlesalso clears_taxel_handleswhile the loop iterates over it. The result is anIndexError, or a scene that shows stale handles. - Rejected edits:
_edit_field_eventand the gizmo callback assignself.document = backup. A remote shape replacement in_consume_source(_replace_document) can run at the same time. One of the two writes is then silently lost. _programmaticflag: this flag is shared between threads. A real user edit can arrive while another thread has the flag set toTrue._edit_field_eventthen drops that edit.
Add self._lock = threading.RLock() in __init__. Hold the lock for the whole body of each run() iteration and for the whole body of each Viser callback. A decorator helper that wraps every callback is enough.
Proposed fix (loop side)

started = time.monotonic()

- self._consume_source(started)
