Turns the review's code-implementable P0/P1 items into ADRs: source provenance state machine (synthetic never presents as live), UDP data-plane bind hardening (loopback default + allowlist, step one), multi-node semantic correctness (per-node inference, node-keyed rate limiter, stale state), model release sanity gates (block degenerate/mislabeled heads), and CSI data-incident repo controls. Also fixes the stale .gitignore rule so the active recordings directories and CSI globs are covered going forward. Tree removal of existing recordings, history rewrite, and withdrawal of the published presence head are gated on maintainer sign-off (outward-facing / destructive) and intentionally not done here.

This folder contains 210 Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) that document every significant technical choice in the RuView / WiFi-DensePose project. (The index tables below list a curated subset per domain; see the directory listing for the full set.)
Why ADRs?
Building a system that turns WiFi signals into human pose estimation involves hundreds of non-obvious decisions: which signal processing algorithms to use, how to bridge ESP32 firmware to a Rust pipeline, whether to run inference on-device or on a server, how to handle multi-person separation with limited subcarriers.
ADRs capture the context, options considered, decision made, and consequences for each of these choices. They serve three purposes:
-
Institutional memory — Six months from now, anyone (human or AI) can read why we chose IIR bandpass filters over FIR for vital sign extraction, not just see the code.
-
AI-assisted development — When an AI agent works on this codebase, ADRs give it the constraints and rationale it needs to make changes that align with the existing architecture. Without them, AI-generated code tends to drift — reinventing patterns that already exist, contradicting earlier decisions, or optimizing for the wrong tradeoffs.
-
Review checkpoints — Each ADR is a reviewable artifact. When a proposed change touches the architecture, the ADR forces the author to articulate tradeoffs before writing code, not after.
ADRs and Domain-Driven Design
The project uses Domain-Driven Design (DDD) to organize code into bounded contexts — each with its own language, types, and responsibilities. ADRs and DDD work together:
- ADRs define boundaries: ADR-029 (RuvSense) established multistatic sensing as a separate bounded context from single-node CSI. ADR-042 (CHCI) defined a new aggregate root for coherent channel imaging.
- DDD models define the language: The RuvSense domain model defines terms like "coherence gate", "dwell time", and "TDM slot" that ADRs reference precisely.
- Together they prevent drift: An AI agent reading ADR-039 knows that edge processing tiers are configured via NVS keys, not compile-time flags — because the ADR says so. The DDD model tells it which aggregate owns that configuration.
How ADRs are structured
Each ADR follows a consistent format:
- Context — What problem or gap prompted this decision
- Decision — What we chose to do and how
- Consequences — What improved, what got harder, and what risks remain
- References — Related ADRs, papers, and code paths
Statuses: Proposed (under discussion), Accepted (approved and/or implemented), Superseded (replaced by a later ADR).
