julian 1b55e2034d Dingtian relay driver — resolves the ticket-first entry blocker
The Dingtian board's inputs are independent of its relays (configurable), so a
button on an input can report to the host WITHOUT auto-firing a relay — solving
the access-controller-button-flow blocker the UHPPOTE/ZKTeco couldn't.

packages/devices:
- access-dingtian.ts: `dingtian` access driver implementing AccessControlDevice
  (relay pulse/latch via UDP string protocol :60001), InputDevice (read inputs +
  poll-based press/release events, active-LOW), and the new PreconditionDevice.
- PreconditionDevice capability on the interface: a device can report config it
  requires for parking and optionally fix it. Dingtian checks input_link_relay
  via the HTTP config API and can disable it.
- httpPort config field — the web/config API port is separate from UDP control
  (this unit uses 8080, not the default 80).
- Register dingtian; export driver objects from the package.

Verified on real hardware (DT-R004 @ 10.0.10.172): status read, relay pulse,
input events; disabled input_link_relay via the driver, then confirmed pressing
inputs fires NO relay (0000) — host-in-the-loop entry works.

Config-write gotcha recorded: config_set.cgi requires "command":"setconfig"
injected after "status" (GET omits it) or the POST silently no-ops.

apps/server/scripts/dingtian-test.mjs: status / watch / pulse hardware test.
wiki: dingtian-relay verified; button-flow marked RESOLVED; index + log.

# Index
Content catalog for the wiki. Start at [[overview]]. Maintained on every ingest.
Counts: 1 source · 14 entities · 10 concepts · 2 decision records.
## Overview & navigation
- [[overview]] — the top-level synthesis and entry point.
- [[index]] — this catalog.
- `log.md` — chronological record of ingests/queries/lints.
## Sources
- [[parking-system-architecture]] — design notes: stack, threat model, devices, UHPPOTE, ESP32, readers, BOM, open decisions.
## Entities — technology stack
- [[technology-stack]] — the full stack table; all MIT/Apache/BSD, chosen to avoid lock-in.
- [[fastify]] — Node backend; hosts device-driver plugins + auth; serves the SPA.
- [[sqlite]] — local single-writer DB (WAL); limits & why it fits.
- [[drizzle-orm]] — ORM; schemas port to PostgreSQL for remote sync.
- [[turborepo]] — monorepo tool.
- [[react-vite-spa]] — React/Vite frontend served by Fastify.
- [[local-jwt-auth]] — fully local auth (JWT + bcrypt + role guard); forced by offline-first.
## Entities — rejected alternatives
- [[payload-cms]] — strong, but rejected over BSL license shift (the rug-pull cautionary case).
- [[refine]] — dropped for plain React; UI too simple to justify a framework.
- [[logto-zitadel-oidc]] — OIDC providers ruled out by offline-first.
## Entities — hardware & devices
- [[uhppote-controller]] — current access controller; cheap, tamper-evident, open-UDP, fixed firmware.
- [[esp32-custom-controller]] — prevention-grade upgrade; device-level auth.
- [[atecc608]] — secure element; non-extractable signing key (host events + controller auth).
- [[wiegand]] — reader standard feeding the controller directly (autonomous permit-holder path).
- [[lpr-camera]] — edge-AI plate recognition; host-side casual-identity source.
- [[zkteco-controller]] — C3/inBio controller; aux-input path may enable host-in-the-loop (driver TBD).
- [[dingtian-relay]] — relay+input board; inputs decoupled from relays → solves the button blocker (driver TBD).
- [[bom]] — reference bill of materials (barrier, loops, controller, readers, payment, host, network).
## Concepts — foundational forces
- [[offline-first]] — no network dependency in core operation; what it forces (and doesn't).
- [[threat-model]] — the operator-at-the-booth reframing; why encryption defends the wrong threat.
## Concepts — integrity & anti-fraud
- [[append-only-event-chain]] — append-only + hash chain + ATECC608 signing = unforgeable log.
- [[reconciliation]] — the real anti-fraud control; what remote sync actually is.
- [[disk-os-hardening]] — LUKS/GRUB/Secure Boot; worthwhile but not the main event.
## Concepts — device architecture & safety
- [[device-adapter-pattern]] — business logic talks to interfaces; swap hardware → new adapter.
- [[device-registry]] — catalog of selectable drivers per category (admin-configurable).
- [[first-run-setup]] — admin assigns devices per lane from the catalog at install.
- [[device-discovery]] — optional driver capability to scan the LAN (UHPPOTE UDP broadcast).
- [[barrier-not-a-door]] — never timed-close a barrier; safety lives in barrier firmware.
- [[trust-boundary]] — the core fork: network vs. device; auditable vs. unforgeable.
- [[fail-state-safety]] — entry fails closed, exit fails open; manual override; watchdog.
## Concepts — access control
- [[uhppote-udp-protocol]] — open UDP weakness + the unauthenticated commands that undermine the log.
- [[network-isolation]] — mandatory VLAN isolation; the network as security boundary.
- [[event-log-ingestion]] — host-side index tracking that makes the UHPPOTE log trustworthy.
- [[challenge-response-auth]] — asymmetric nonce scheme for the ESP32 (auth + anti-replay).
- [[entry-exit-readers]] — two populations, two integration paths; both can share a relay.
- [[uhppote-vs-esp32]] — comparison: detection vs. prevention.
## Dev environment (reference)
- [[local-dev-workflow]] — running the stack locally; setup, the dev-hang gotchas, seed:admin.
- [[wsl-dev-networking]] — WSL2 NAT blocks device broadcast; use mirrored mode + the gotchas after.
## Decisions
- [[standing-decisions]] — settled decisions (stack, platform, integrity, access control, readers).
- [[open-questions]] — 7 open items (6 procurement + JWT key choice); ESP32 device auth deferred.
- [[access-controller-button-flow]] — ✅ RESOLVED: Dingtian decoupled inputs enable ticket-first entry (was a UHPPOTE/ZKTeco blocker).
- [[autonomous-direction]] — roadmap: toward fully unmanned (no booth); reshapes threat model + fail-state.
- [[dingtian-vs-mqtt]] — transport choice: direct HTTP/UDP now, MQTT parked until multi-lane scale.
