-# GitHub Copilot Instructions for Frigate NVR
-
-This document provides coding guidelines and best practices for contributing to Frigate NVR, a complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection.
-
-## Project Overview
-
-Frigate NVR is a realtime object detection system for IP cameras that uses:
-
-- **Backend**: Python 3.13+ with FastAPI, OpenCV, TensorFlow/ONNX
-- **Frontend**: React with TypeScript, Vite, TailwindCSS
-- **Architecture**: Multiprocessing design with ZMQ and MQTT communication
-- **Focus**: Minimal resource usage with maximum performance
-
-## Code Review Guidelines
-
-When reviewing code, do NOT comment on:
-
-- Missing imports - Static analysis tooling catches these
-- Code formatting - Ruff (Python) and Prettier (TypeScript/React) handle formatting
-- Minor style inconsistencies already enforced by linters
-
-## Python Backend Standards
-
-### Python Requirements
-
-- **Compatibility**: Python 3.13+
-- **Language Features**: Use modern Python features:
-  - Pattern matching
-  - Type hints (comprehensive typing preferred)
-  - f-strings (preferred over `%` or `.format()`)
-  - Dataclasses
-  - Async/await patterns
-
-### Code Quality Standards
-
-- **Formatting**: Ruff (configured in `pyproject.toml`)
-- **Linting**: Ruff with rules defined in project config
-- **Type Checking**: Use type hints consistently
-- **Testing**: unittest framework - use `python3 -u -m unittest` to run tests
-- **Language**: American English for all code, comments, and documentation
-
-### Logging Standards
-
-- **Logger Pattern**: Use module-level logger
-
-  ```python
-  import logging
-
-  logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
-  ```
-
-- **Format Guidelines**:
-  - No periods at end of log messages
-  - No sensitive data (keys, tokens, passwords)
-  - Use lazy logging: `logger.debug("Message with %s", variable)`
-- **Log Levels**:
-  - `debug`: Development and troubleshooting information
-  - `info`: Important runtime events (startup, shutdown, state changes)
-  - `warning`: Recoverable issues that should be addressed
-  - `error`: Errors that affect functionality but don't crash the app
-  - `exception`: Use in except blocks to include traceback
-
-### Error Handling
-
-- **Exception Types**: Choose most specific exception available
-- **Try/Catch Best Practices**:
-  - Only wrap code that can throw exceptions
-  - Keep try blocks minimal - process data after the try/except
-  - Avoid bare exceptions except in background tasks
-
-  Bad pattern:
-
-  ```python
-  try:
-      data = await device.get_data()  # Can throw
-      # ❌ Don't process data inside try block
-      processed = data.get("value", 0) * 100
-      result = processed
-  except DeviceError:
-      logger.error("Failed to get data")
-  ```
-
-  Good pattern:
-
-  ```python
-  try:
-      data = await device.get_data()  # Can throw
-  except DeviceError:
-      logger.error("Failed to get data")
-      return
-
-  # ✅ Process data outside try block
-  processed = data.get("value", 0) * 100
-  result = processed
-  ```
-
-### Async Programming
-
-- **External I/O**: All external I/O operations must be async
-- **Best Practices**:
-  - Avoid sleeping in loops - use `asyncio.sleep()` not `time.sleep()`
-  - Avoid awaiting in loops - use `asyncio.gather()` instead
-  - No blocking calls in async functions
-  - Use `asyncio.create_task()` for background operations
-- **Thread Safety**: Use proper synchronization for shared state
-
-### Documentation Standards
-
-- **Module Docstrings**: Concise descriptions at top of files
-  ```python
-  """Utilities for motion detection and analysis."""
-  ```
-- **Function Docstrings**: Required for public functions and methods
-
-  ```python
-  async def process_frame(frame: ndarray, config: Config) -> Detection:
-      """Process a video frame for object detection.
-
-      Args:
-          frame: The video frame as numpy array
-          config: Detection configuration
-
-      Returns:
-          Detection results with bounding boxes
-      """
-  ```
-
-- **Comment Style**:
-  - Explain the "why" not just the "what"
-  - Keep lines under 88 characters when possible
-  - Use clear, descriptive comments
-
-### File Organization
-
-- **API Endpoints**: `frigate/api/` - FastAPI route handlers
-- **Configuration**: `frigate/config/` - Configuration parsing and validation
-- **Detectors**: `frigate/detectors/` - Object detection backends
-- **Events**: `frigate/events/` - Event management and storage
-- **Utilities**: `frigate/util/` - Shared utility functions
-
-## Frontend (React/TypeScript) Standards
-
-### Internationalization (i18n)
-
-- **CRITICAL**: Never write user-facing strings directly in components
-- **Always use react-i18next**: Import and use the `t()` function
-
-  ```tsx
-  import { useTranslation } from "react-i18next";
-
-  function MyComponent() {
-    const { t } = useTranslation(["views/live"]);
-    return <div>{t("camera_not_found")}</div>;
-  }
-  ```
-
-- **Translation Files**: Add English strings to the appropriate json files in `web/public/locales/en`
-- **Namespaces**: Organize translations by feature/view (e.g., `views/live`, `common`, `views/system`)
-
-### Code Quality
-
-- **Linting**: ESLint (see `web/.eslintrc.cjs`)
-- **Formatting**: Prettier with Tailwind CSS plugin
-- **Type Safety**: TypeScript strict mode enabled
-
-### Component Patterns
-
-- **UI Components**: Use Radix UI primitives (in `web/src/components/ui/`)
-- **Styling**: TailwindCSS with `cn()` utility for class merging
-- **State Management**: React hooks (useState, useEffect, useCallback, useMemo)
-- **Data Fetching**: Custom hooks with proper loading and error states
-
-### ESLint Rules
-
-Key rules enforced:
-
-- `react-hooks/rules-of-hooks`: error
-- `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`: error
-- `no-console`: error (use proper logging or remove)
-- `@typescript-eslint/no-explicit-any`: warn (always use proper types instead of `any`)
-- Unused variables must be prefixed with `_`
-- Comma dangles required for multiline objects/arrays
-
-### File Organization
-
-- **Pages**: `web/src/pages/` - Route components
-- **Views**: `web/src/views/` - Complex view components
-- **Components**: `web/src/components/` - Reusable components
-- **Hooks**: `web/src/hooks/` - Custom React hooks
-- **API**: `web/src/api/` - API client functions
-- **Types**: `web/src/types/` - TypeScript type definitions
-
-## Testing Requirements
-
-### Backend Testing
-
-- **Framework**: Python unittest
-- **Run Command**: `python3 -u -m unittest`
-- **Location**: `frigate/test/`
-- **Coverage**: Aim for comprehensive test coverage of core functionality
-- **Pattern**: Use `TestCase` classes with descriptive test method names
-  ```python
-  class TestMotionDetection(unittest.TestCase):
-      def test_detects_motion_above_threshold(self):
-          # Test implementation
-  ```
-
-### Test Best Practices
-
-- Always have a way to test your work and confirm your changes
-- Write tests for bug fixes to prevent regressions
-- Test edge cases and error conditions
-- Mock external dependencies (cameras, APIs, hardware)
-- Use fixtures for test data
-
-## Development Commands
-
-### Python Backend
-
-```bash
-# Run all tests
-python3 -u -m unittest
-
-# Run specific test file
-python3 -u -m unittest frigate.test.test_ffmpeg_presets
-
-# Check formatting (Ruff)
-ruff format --check frigate/
-
-# Apply formatting
-ruff format frigate/
-
-# Run linter
-ruff check frigate/
-
-# Type check
-python3 -u -m mypy --config-file frigate/mypy.ini frigate
-```
-
-### Frontend (from web/ directory)
-
-```bash
-# Start dev server (AI agents should never run this directly unless asked)
-npm run dev
-
-# Build for production
-npm run build
-
-# Run linter
-npm run lint
-
-# Fix linting issues
-npm run lint:fix
-
-# Format code
-npm run prettier:write
-
-# E2E: first-time setup
-npm install
-npx playwright install chromium
-
-# E2E: build the app and run all tests
-npm run e2e:build && npm run e2e
-
-# E2E: interactive UI for debugging
-npm run e2e:ui
-
-# E2E: run a specific spec
-npx playwright test --config e2e/playwright.config.ts e2e/specs/live.spec.ts
-
-# E2E: filter by name, or run only desktop/mobile
-npx playwright test --config e2e/playwright.config.ts --grep="severity tab"
-npx playwright test --config e2e/playwright.config.ts --project=desktop
-
-# E2E: regenerate mock data after backend model changes (from repo root)
-PYTHONPATH=. python3 web/e2e/fixtures/mock-data/generate-mock-data.py
-
-# Regenerate config translations from Pydantic models — outputs to
-# web/public/locales/en/config/{global,cameras}.json. NEVER edit those
-# JSON files by hand; change the Pydantic field title/description and
-# re-run this script. (from repo root)
-python3 generate_config_translations.py
-
-# Extract i18n keys from source into the locale files after adding
-# new t() calls. Use the :ci variant to verify the locale files are
-# in sync with source (fails if extraction would change anything).
-npm run i18n:extract
-npm run i18n:extract:ci
-```
-
-### Docker Development
-
-AI agents should never run these commands directly unless instructed.
-
-```bash
-# Build local image
-make local
-
-# Build debug image
-make debug
-```
-
-## Common Patterns
-
-### API Endpoint Pattern
-
-```python
-from fastapi import APIRouter, Request
-from frigate.api.defs.tags import Tags
-
-router = APIRouter(tags=[Tags.Events])
-
-@router.get("/events")
-async def get_events(request: Request, limit: int = 100):
-    """Retrieve events from the database."""
-    # Implementation
-```
-
-### Configuration Access
-
-```python
-# Access Frigate configuration
-config: FrigateConfig = request.app.frigate_config
-camera_config = config.cameras["front_door"]
-```
-
-### Database Queries
-
-```python
-from frigate.models import Event
-
-# Use Peewee ORM for database access
-events = (
-    Event.select()
-    .where(Event.camera == camera_name)
-    .order_by(Event.start_time.desc())
-    .limit(limit)
-)
-```
-
-## Common Anti-Patterns to Avoid
-
-### ❌ Avoid These
-
-```python
-# Blocking operations in async functions
-data = requests.get(url)  # ❌ Use async HTTP client
-time.sleep(5)  # ❌ Use asyncio.sleep()
-
-# Hardcoded strings in React components
-<div>Camera not found</div>  # ❌ Use t("camera_not_found")
-
-# Missing error handling
-data = await api.get_data()  # ❌ No exception handling
-
-# Bare exceptions in regular code
-try:
-    value = await sensor.read()
-except Exception:  # ❌ Too broad
-    logger.error("Failed")
-
-# Returning exceptions in JSON responses
-except ValueError as e:
-    return JSONResponse(
-        content={"success": False, "message": str(e)},
-    )
-```
-
-### ✅ Use These Instead
-
-```python
-# Async operations
-import aiohttp
-async with aiohttp.ClientSession() as session:
-    async with session.get(url) as response:
-        data = await response.json()
-
-await asyncio.sleep(5)  # ✅ Non-blocking
-
-# Translatable strings in React
-const { t } = useTranslation();
-<div>{t("camera_not_found")}</div>  # ✅ Translatable
-
-# Proper error handling
-try:
-    data = await api.get_data()
-except ApiException as err:
-    logger.error("API error: %s", err)
-    raise
-
-# Specific exceptions
-try:
-    value = await sensor.read()
-except SensorException as err:  # ✅ Specific
-    logger.exception("Failed to read sensor")
-
-# Safe error responses
-except ValueError:
-    logger.exception("Invalid parameters for API request")
-    return JSONResponse(
-        content={
-            "success": False,
-            "message": "Invalid request parameters",
-        },
-    )
-```
-
-## WebSocket Broadcasts
-
-Outbound WebSocket broadcasts go through a per-recipient classifier in `frigate/comms/ws.py` that enforces camera-level access. **The classifier is fail-closed: any topic it doesn't recognize is dropped for every client.** New outbound topics must be classified there or they'll silently disappear.
-
-## Project-Specific Conventions
-
-### Configuration Files
-
-- Main config: `config/config.yml`
-
-### Directory Structure
-
-- Backend code: `frigate/`
-- Frontend code: `web/`
-- Docker files: `docker/`
-- Documentation: `docs/`
-- Database migrations: `migrations/`
-
-### Code Style Conformance
-
-Always conform new and refactored code to the existing coding style in the project:
-
-- Follow established patterns in similar files
-- Match indentation and formatting of surrounding code
-- Use consistent naming conventions (snake_case for Python, camelCase for TypeScript)
-- Maintain the same level of verbosity in comments and docstrings

+## WebSocket Broadcasts
+
+Outbound WebSocket broadcasts go through a per-recipient classifier in `frigate/comms/ws.py` that enforces camera-level access. **The classifier is fail-closed: any topic it doesn't recognize is dropped for every client.** New outbound topics must be classified there or they'll silently disappear.

 ### Model Types: Instruct vs Thinking
 
-Most vision-language models are available as **instruct** models, which are fine-tuned to follow instructions and respond concisely to prompts. However, some models (such as certain Qwen-VL or minigpt variants) offer both **instruct** and **thinking** versions.
+Vision-language models come in **instruct** variants (fine-tuned to follow instructions and respond concisely), **thinking** variants (fine-tuned for free-form, speculative reasoning), and **hybrid** variants that support both modes per request. Most modern vision-language models are hybrid.
 
-- **Instruct models** are always recommended for use with Frigate. These models generate direct, relevant, actionable descriptions that best fit Frigate's object and event summary use case.
-- **Reasoning / Thinking models** are fine-tuned for more free-form, open-ended, and speculative outputs, which are typically not concise and may not provide the practical summaries Frigate expects. For this reason, Frigate does **not** recommend or support using thinking models.
+Frigate manages reasoning per task automatically:
 
-Some models are labeled as **hybrid** (capable of both thinking and instruct tasks). In these cases, it is recommended to disable reasoning / thinking, which is generally model specific (see your models documentation).
+- **Description tasks** (object descriptions, review descriptions, review summaries) are synthesis-only and benefit from concise, direct output, so Frigate disables thinking for these calls when the model exposes a per-request toggle.
+- **Chat** lets you toggle thinking on or off from the composer when the configured model supports it.
 
-**Recommendation:**
-Always select the `-instruct` or documented instruct/tagged variant of any model you use in your Frigate configuration. If in doubt, refer to your model provider's documentation or model library for guidance on the correct model variant to use.
+You can use a pure instruct, hybrid, or thinking-capable model with Frigate — no extra configuration is required to disable thinking for descriptions.

 - The replay will not always produce identical results to the original run. Different frames may be selected on replay, which can change detections and tracking.
 - Motion detection depends on the exact frames used; small frame shifts can change motion regions and therefore what gets passed to the detector.
 - Object detection is not fully deterministic: models and post-processing can yield slightly different results across runs.
+- In cases where a detection is short and a replay may only be a small number of frames, it is recommended to manually add some padding before and after the detection so that the motion and object detectors have time to settle into the scene. Rather than starting Debug Replay from Explore, navigate to History for your camera, choose Debug Replay from the Actions menu, and click the "From Timeline" or "Custom" option.
 
 Treat the replay as a close approximation rather than an exact reproduction. Run multiple loops and examine the debug overlays and logs to understand the behavior.

 ## Analysis Guidelines
 
 When forming your description:
-- **CRITICAL: Only describe objects explicitly listed in "Objects in Scene" below.** Do not infer or mention additional people, vehicles, or objects not present in this list, even if visual patterns suggest them. If only a car is listed, do not describe a person interacting with it unless "person" is also in the objects list.
-- **Only describe actions actually visible in the frames.** Do not assume or infer actions that you don't observe happening. If someone walks toward furniture but you never see them sit, do not say they sat. Stick to what you can see across the sequence.
+- **Treat "Objects in Scene" as the list of tracked subjects to describe.** Do not introduce additional people or vehicles that are not present in this list. You may freely reference other items, surfaces, and environmental details visible in the frames when describing what the listed subjects are doing.
+- **Describe the most likely activity from visible cues across the sequence** — the subject's path, what they are carrying, and what they interact with. Avoid asserting completed outcomes you do not observe; describe in-progress actions rather than results.
 - Describe what you observe: actions, movements, interactions with objects and the environment. Include any observable environmental changes (e.g., lighting changes triggered by activity).
 - Note visible details such as clothing, items being carried or placed, tools or equipment present, and how they interact with the property or objects.
 - Consider the full sequence chronologically: what happens from start to finish, how duration and actions relate to the location and objects involved.
