The stock STA client interface (wlan0) holds phy0's channel, pinning wlan0mon
so 2.4GHz recon captures nothing (verified: iw set channel -> Resource busy
until wlan0 is down). env_check now disables it (uci wireless.dummy_radio0
disabled=1 + wifi reload) at startup and /api/recon/status exposes wlan0_sta
so the recon page can warn if it regresses.
The band UCI config looked correct but pineapd was not hopping wlan0mon at
runtime, so 2.4GHz recon results were entirely absent. env_check now parses
_pineap INTERFACE LIST and warns when wlan0mon hop is off; /api/recon/status
exposes wlan0_hopping and the recon scan bar surfaces it.
- env_check(): verifies daemon/pineapd/UCI/monitors/recon DB, auto-fixes
fixable issues and re-verifies; forces runtime SSID-pool broadcast off to
match the UI (kills the 'pool on but UI shows off' gap)
- server.py --env-check CLI; payload.sh runs it verbosely before starting,
aborts on core failure
- serve() runs the check at every startup (boot + procd respawn)
- /api/health exposes env report + pool_runtime; /api/recon/status exposes
wlan0_pinned (2.4GHz under-sampling warning); recon page warns when a
radio0 AP pins wlan0mon
- recon start failures now include the daemon reason in the UI error
- shared stabilization refactor (_stabilize_uci/PINEAPD_SAFE_UCI/_raise_monitors)
- tests: test_env_check.py (18) + health/recon updates
