Pins operator-link transport to gRPC server-streaming (closes
architecture Q2 in favour of gRPC). Adds first-time tonic / prost /
tonic-build infrastructure to the workspace; uses
protoc-bin-vendored so neither dev machines nor CI need system
protoc installed.
Design — back-pressure lives in the per-topic tokio::sync::broadcast
ring, drained directly by the tonic-streamed response via
BroadcastStream + StreamMap. No intermediate mpsc buffer that could
absorb back-pressure invisibly. Slow client overrun -> Lagged(n)
event -> per-(client_id, topic) drop counter incremented; healthy
clients on the same topic are unaffected.
Service surface — Subscribe(SubscribeRequest) -> stream
TelemetryMessage; five topics (TelemetrySample, GimbalState,
DetectionEvent, MovementCandidate, MapObjectsBundle); empty topics
list defaults to subscribe-all; empty client_id rejected; stream
drop decrements subscribed_clients via StreamGuard. TelemetrySink
push_detections is now real; push_frame still NotImplemented(AZ-676
video path).
Tests — 6 unit + 5 integration (AC-1..AC-3 via in-process gRPC
client, plus subscribe-all default + empty-client_id rejection).
Clippy on telemetry_stream clean.
Pre-existing mission_executor ac3 test polling race surfaces more
reliably under the new tonic build pressure; documented as
_docs/_process_leftovers/2026-05-20_mission_executor_ac3_flake.md
and unchanged by this batch.

AZ-657 (frame_ingest): RTSP session lifecycle FSM with bounded
exponential backoff (1 s → 30 s cap), AI-lock plumb through
watch::Sender that stamps every emitted Frame, and SPS/PPS
hard-fail via OpenError::UnsupportedProfile. The actual RTSP wire
client is abstracted behind an RtspTransport trait so AZ-658 can
pin retina/FFmpeg alongside the decoder; the lifecycle FSM itself
is production code today. tokio::select! around every transport
call so a hung open/read cannot wedge graceful shutdown. 10 unit +
5 integration tests cover happy path, bounded reconnect, stream-
drop reopen, hard-fail no-retry, and AI-lock toggle.
AZ-682 (scan_controller): typed ScanState (ZoomedOut / ZoomedIn /
TargetFollow) with a complete pure transition catalogue, every
(state, trigger) → next_state from description.md §1/§4/§5 covered;
spec-disallowed combos return TransitionOutcome.accepted = false
with RejectReason::UnsupportedTransition (loud, not silent). Frame-
rate floor monitor with hysteresis suppresses ZoomedOut → ZoomedIn
while sustained FPS < 10 fps per description.md §5/§6. Rolling
100-sample tick-latency window surfaces p99; health goes yellow
above the 10 ms budget. 18 unit + 5 integration tests cover the
catalogue, fps-floor activate/clear, and tick-latency budget.
Cumulative review (batches 10-12): all OPEN findings carried
forward without regressions. See
_docs/03_implementation/batch_12_cycle1_report.md §6.
Notes: pre-existing dead-code error in autopilot::Runtime::
vlm_provider_name (origin batch 4) blocks workspace -D warnings
clippy. Recorded in _docs/_process_leftovers/ — not in batch 12
scope.
