Build & Test

Root CLI

• go test ./...
• go run ./cmd/fmrtx -print-config
• go run ./cmd/fmrtx -config docs/config.sample.json
• go run ./cmd/fmrtx --dry-run --dry-output build/dryrun/frame.json
• go run ./cmd/fmrtx --simulate-tx --simulate-output build/sim/simulated-soapy.iqf32 --simulate-duration 250ms
• go run ./cmd/offline -duration 500ms -output build/offline/composite.iqf32

Audio source modes

Current no-hardware sources:

• generated stereo tones via config
• 16-bit PCM WAV file input via audio.inputPath
• basic sample-rate adaptation for WAV sources into the composite generation path
• transparent tone fallback if the configured WAV source cannot be loaded

Tone configuration

The current no-hardware source can be parameterized via config:

• audio.toneLeftHz
• audio.toneRightHz
• audio.toneAmplitude

HTTP control surface

Available endpoints:

• GET /healthz
• GET /status
• GET /dry-run
• GET /config
• POST /config

Current patchable runtime fields via POST /config:

• frequencyMHz
• outputDrive
• toneLeftHz
• toneRightHz
• toneAmplitude
• ps
• radioText

Internal DSP module

• cd internal
• go test ./...

Examples module

• cd examples
• go test ./...
• go run ./soapy_simulated

Dry run

The dry-run mode generates a synthetic, hardware-free frame summary based on the current config. It is intended as a no-hardware smoke path for the CLI and config/control-adjacent logic.

The HTTP control plane also exposes GET /dry-run for quick inspection of the currently effective no-hardware summary.

Simulated transmit

--simulate-tx runs the offline generator through the Soapy-oriented simulated backend path and writes an IQ-style artifact to disk. This is the current closest no-hardware stand-in for the future transmit pipeline in the main application path.

Offline generation

cmd/offline generates a deterministic no-hardware IQ/composite-style file using the repository's output backend path. This is still an MVP path, but it is a more realistic offline artifact than the JSON-only dry-run. The generator summary now reports whether the active source is tones, wav, or tone-fallback.

Release posture

Current honest release posture: pre-v1. Recommended milestone tag: v0.3.0-pre. See CHANGELOG.md and RELEASE.md.
