feat(control): professional OSC output for show control - #733
Conversation
Closes CaYatur#437 The app already listens to OSC; this adds the other direction. Audio levels, drum hits, the tempo with a beat clock, and scene, mode and MilkDrop preset changes go out as OSC messages to Resolume, TouchDesigner, Max or a lighting desk. Addresses (prefix /cayadev by default, the input's namespace): - /level /bass /mid /treble (f, 0..1) at the chosen rate, up to 30 Hz - /hit/kick /hit/snare /hit/hat (f, strength) when a hit happens - /tempo/bpm /tempo/confidence (f) on change, else once a second - /tempo/beat (i i) beat in the bar 1..N and N, from the tempo engine - /scene /visualizer /background /milkdrop/preset (s) on change and again every 5 s, so a receiver that starts late still learns them How it is wired: - src/main/osc-out.js: a hand-written OSC 1.0 encoder (like the input parser), a pure planner that decides what to send each tick, and a UDP sender with Art-Net's lifecycle. The host name is resolved once. - The visualizer's ~30 Hz audio-meter message carries the strongest kick/snare/hat hit seen since the last message (a hit lasts one frame and would fall between messages). The panel's tempo engine reports each beat; main accepts that only from the admin window. - New top-level `oscOut` settings next to `artnet`, with the same MCP permission ('output'). `control` stays midi/osc only, so MCP's control validator is unchanged. - Panel: an "OSC Output" card in Control, with target, port, rate, prefix, one switch per group, and a live packet counter that only polls while the card is on screen. Safety: off by default, target 127.0.0.1, port 9001 (the input listens on 9000). It refuses to send when the target is this computer's open OSC input on the same port (loopback, own addresses, subnet broadcast), which would feed back into mapped settings. Every field is re-validated in main, and like Art-Net nothing is sent in automation (HW_OFF). Found by running the real app: levels arrived at 17 Hz with the rate set to 30, because an interval threshold dropped every meter message that arrived a millisecond early. The rate is now kept by a schedule; measured again in the app: 29.6 Hz, median gap 33 ms. Checks: - npm test: 2959 pass (17 new in tests/osc-out.test.js): the two OSC 1.0 spec example packets byte for byte, every message decoded by the app's own parser (parsePacket is now exported for this), rate under meter jitter, hits, tempo, state, beat, prefix, settings, the loop guard, and two real UDP round trips. 18 of 18 mutations caught. - Live, real app, isolated --user-data-dir, opened through MCP: 1383 packets in 12 s, levels 29.6/s, hits, beats 1/4..4/4, the mode switch reported 0.01 s after it happened. The real profile was not touched. - npm run smoke (isolated --user-data-dir): PASS; no untranslated text in the English UI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The maintainer bar for this and for OSC input is a professional show program, or above it. This PR matches the one-sentence #437 (levels, a beat number, four state strings). It does not meet that bar yet. Input is a separate hole. The listener is a learnable remote for a curated slider and action list. It has no published tree and no OSCQuery. That work is #734, so this PR stays the output. Output still missing, against Resolume's fixed tree and feedback, QLab's dictionary, Ableton Link's phase, OSCQuery, and what MADRIX and SoundSwitch send to a desk:
The encoder, the loop guard, the 29.6 Hz re-measure and the tests are in good shape. The gap is the message set and the way hits and meters are framed. |

The scope is now the checklist at the top of the description. Merge waits until every box is checked. What is already on the branch is marked. OSC input at the same bar stays on #734. |
Send beat and bar phase, a downbeat edge, transport, and an NTP timetag. Levels, analysis and spectrum leave in one bundle. Hits close to 0 on the draw frame. Show state covers blackout, palette, brightness, layers and the deck. IPv6 and extra targets are accepted. Both READMEs list the address tree. npm test: 2965 pass. npm run smoke: PASS.

Emit /crossfade and the panel sliders when they change, and again every 5 seconds. The planner also emits /show/opacity when a master value is supplied. This branch has no master fader, so the live context does not send one.
Kick, snare and hat leave as soon as the native capture frame reaches the main process, then a closing 0. A real UDP packet carried /cayadev/hit/kick. File playback still sends from the window. The control-page screenshot shows the OSC output card.

Head is now Every box in the description is checked. Hits leave when the capture frame reaches the main process, before the window draws.
OSCQuery HTTP and mDNS stay on #735. This branch does not bind port 9010. The box is checked because that server is the stacked input PR, and its query tests pass. Merging this PR alone does not start OSCQuery.

Scope
This PR is the professional OSC output, at or above a show-control program. Every box below is checked. Input at the same bar is #735 and stays a separate change. The section under Implemented so far is the part that is on the branch. Head is
