03602c02f8 v0.13.0: sat_orbits adapter (forward-orbit-track per satellite) + antimeridian splitter
New SourceAdapter publishes one forward-orbit-track LineString per tracked
satellite per poll (5min cadence, 90min horizon, 60s vertex resolution).
Drives the "each sat's path" map view Matt asked for after enabling the
satellite family and seeing overlapping orange visibility-footprint
circles + a polar-orbit ground track wrapping the wrong way across the
antimeridian.

Companion to v0.12.0 sat_positions: one publishes the current sub-sat POINT
per minute, sat_orbits publishes the LINE of where it's going. Complement,
not replacement.

data_class=telemetry (continuous trajectory state, surfaces on /telemetry).
Geo carries both centroid (current sub-sat point for the "here it is" dot)
and geometry (the forward track LineString or MultiLineString).

Antimeridian splitter is the key new sat_common primitive: walks the
vertex list, splits at +/-180 crossings, interpolates lat at the crossing
point for crisp dateline termination. ALSO fixes the v0.11.2
satpass_predict "wrong-way wrap" bug by rewiring _build_pass_geometry's
ground_track through the same splitter (sibling concern, documented in
the PR body as intentional scope-coupling).

CENTRAL_SAT stream STREAM_CATEGORY_DOMAINS extends from
('tle', 'pass', 'position') to ('tle', 'pass', 'position', 'orbit'). No
max_bytes bump needed; 6 sats x 12 polls/hour x 24 hours x ~5KB = ~8.5
MB/day, negligible against the 5 GiB cap.

GUI events_list.html adds a small per-NORAD-ID color helper using
golden-angle HSL hue distribution. sat_orbits events render with
per-satellite colors; other adapters keep their existing per-adapter
palette color (additive).

Phase A sanity verified: ISS TLE at 2026-06-09T07:00 UTC propagates to
91 vertices over 90min, first vertex matches v0.11.1's known sub-sat
point (170.66 lon, -17.15 lat, 417.4 km alt), one antimeridian crossing
splits the track into a 2-segment MultiLineString.

44/44 satpass_predict regression-guard tests pass after the
_build_pass_geometry rewire. One new test specifically exercises the
splitter inside _build_pass_geometry for a synthesized polar-orbit
ground_track.

v0.12.0: sat_positions adapter (live global satellite positions) + sat_common refactor
## Architectural framing

The v0.11.1 `satpass_predict` adapter is **observer-anchored**: "when does satellite X pass over fixed observer Y, and what's the elevation/azimuth at that observer's site?" It answers a fixed-QTH question and emits one event per (observer, satellite, AOS) tuple.

The new `sat_positions` adapter is the **global** counterpart: "where is satellite X right now?" No observer. One event per tracked NORAD ID per poll, on subject `central.sat.position.<norad_id>`. Consumers (meshAI, GUI map widgets, anything that wants a live world map) subscribe to `central.sat.position.>` and plot.

They complement each other; neither replaces the other.

Direct quote from Matt's use-case: *"location of the sats... map of where the sats are then we have meshai or whatever other service calling central's data grab it and do whatever work it needed."* This adapter is that.

## sat_common extraction rationale

The four pure SGP4 / coordinate helpers (`EARTH_RADIUS_KM`, `gmst_rad`, `eci_to_ecef`, `subsatellite_point`) were private symbols inside `satpass_predict.py`. `sat_positions` needs the same three helpers. Three options were considered:

1. **Cross-import** from `satpass_predict.py` — creates an adapter-to-adapter dependency, ugly.
2. **Extract to `sat_common.py`** — matches the existing `wfigs_common.py` / `swpc_common.py` precedent. Both adapters become siblings of a shared helper module. ✓ chosen.
3. **Duplicate** — math drift over time.

Symbol names dropped their leading underscore on extraction (public-API convention matching `swpc_common.parse_swpc_timestamp` / `wfigs_common.severity_from_acres`). Existing internal call sites in `satpass_predict.py` were updated via mechanical `replace_all`. Observer-specific helpers (`_observer_ecef`, `_topocentric_az_el`, `_visibility_footprint`, `_severity_from_elev`, `_build_pass_geometry`, `_next_passes`) stay in `satpass_predict.py` per YAGNI — they're not used by `sat_positions` today.

Existing `tests/test_satpass_predict.py` was updated mechanically to import the helpers from `sat_common` via aliases (preserves the underscore-prefixed local names in the tests so the rest of the test body needs no change). All 44 satpass_predict tests pass unchanged.

## CENTRAL_SAT stream cap bump

`config.streams.max_bytes` for `CENTRAL_SAT` goes from **1 GiB → 5 GiB** in migration 039. Sizing math:

- celestrak_tle: ~190 sats × 1 envelope/day = ~190 events/day = ~1.4k events/week. Fit in 1 GiB easily.
- sat_positions: ~190 sats × 1440 ticks/day (60s cadence) = **~273.6k events/day = ~1.9M events/week**. At ~1 KB per envelope including the CloudEvents wrapper, that's **~1.9 GiB/week**.
- Plus existing TLE + pass envelopes already on the stream → ~3 GiB headroom needed.
- 5 GiB = 5368709120 bytes = operator-tunable margin without over-provisioning.

`STREAM_CATEGORY_DOMAINS["CENTRAL_SAT"]` extends from `("tle", "pass")` to `("tle", "pass", "position")` so the supervisor's retention sweep covers position events too.

## Subject + dedup

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Subject | `central.sat.position.<norad_id>` — one subject per satellite, globally |
| Dedup id | `<norad_id>:<position_iso>` where `position_iso` is the propagation timestamp truncated to whole seconds (defensive collapse if cadence is ever tightened) |
| Severity | 1 (informational telemetry, no alerting) |
| data_class | `telemetry` — surfaces on `/telemetry`, not `/events` |
| Cadence | 60s default; operator-tunable via standard `cadence_s` field |

## Settings shape

```json
{"track_only_norad_ids": [], "max_tle_age_days": 14}
```

- Empty `track_only_norad_ids` = track every NORAD ID with a fresh TLE in the events table (derive-from-celestrak_tle, default behavior).
- Non-empty list pins to those NORAD IDs only (operator override — "I only care about the ISS and these 12 Starlink sats").
- `max_tle_age_days` bounds TLE freshness; LEO drag means TLEs go stale in days, GEO is good for months. Parameterized into the SQL query as a timedelta interval so operator-tightened windows (e.g. 3d) apply without code change.

## Event.data fields

`norad_id`, `satellite_name`, `lon_deg`, `lat_deg`, `alt_km`, `velocity_kmps`, `heading_deg`, `tle_epoch`.

- `lon_deg`/`lat_deg`/`alt_km`: sub-satellite point via SGP4 → ECI → ECEF rotation → spherical-earth lon/lat/alt.
- `velocity_kmps`: magnitude of the SGP4 ECI velocity vector. ECI vs ECEF difference is ~6% for LEO (earth rotation 0.46 km/s vs 7.7 km/s orbital speed); fine for consumer "the sat is moving at X km/s" text.
- `heading_deg`: great-circle initial bearing from the sub-sat point at `t` to the sub-sat point at `t+1s` (finite-difference; simpler than rotating velocity through GMST + the earth-rotation cross term).

## Diff size — flag for review

**+894 / -63 = +831 net** across 14 files. Spec budget was ≤700 lines. **Over by ~131 net** (or ~194 gross).

Breakdown:
- `sat_positions.py`: 286 lines (under the ≤350 adapter line cap ✓)
- `sat_common.py`: 65 lines (the extraction)
- Migration 039: 58 lines (heavy on inline comments documenting the size math; could trim ~25 lines if you want)
- satpass_predict.py: net -1 line (refactor; lost 4 helper defs and one constant comment, gained 5-line import block)
- Templates: 14 lines (event_rows + event_summaries partials)
- Wiring: 4 lines (supervisor + ADAPTER_GROUPS)
- Docs (CONSUMER-INTEGRATION.md): 40 lines (required by `tests/test_consumer_doc.py::test_every_adapter_has_a_subsection`)
- **Tests: 426 lines.** This is the bulk of the overage.

The tests are all spec-mandated (sub-sat math, velocity range, heading range, build_event, subject_for, empty-TLE, track_only gate, stale-TLE skip, sat_common helpers, regression-guard on the moved helpers via test_satpass_predict.py preservation). I could shrink `test_sat_positions.py` by consolidating the 11 spec-mandated tests into fewer parameterized cases, but each test pins one behavior the spec called out by name. Flagging for your call: keep as-is, or do you want a tighter parameterized version?

## Test plan

- [x] `pytest tests/test_sat_common.py tests/test_sat_positions.py` — **28 new tests, all pass**.
- [x] `pytest tests/test_satpass_predict.py` — **44/44 pass** (regression guard: existing tests work after the sat_common extraction).
- [x] `pytest tests/test_events_feed_frontend.py` — **119/119 pass** (JSON-feed coverage extended to include sat_positions sample event + expected subject string).
- [x] `pytest tests/test_telemetry_separation.py` — **9/9 pass** (`_TELEMETRY` pin extended to include `sat_positions`).
- [x] `pytest tests/test_consumer_doc.py` — **6/6 pass** (CONSUMER-INTEGRATION.md `### sat_positions` subsection added).
- [x] `pytest tests/test_producer_doc.py` — **10/10 pass** (no PRODUCER-INTEGRATION update needed; CENTRAL_SAT stream is pre-existing).
- [x] Full sweep `pytest tests/` (excluding postgres-dep files): **1209 passed, 1 skipped, 0 failures**.
- [x] Ruff: clean on all new code. 3 pre-existing F841 unused-variable warnings (supervisor.py:390 `poll_start`, test_events_feed_frontend.py:425 / :466 `result`) confirmed via `git blame` to be from commits May 2026 — not introduced.

## Deploy plan

1. Squash-merge → tag v0.12.0 at merge SHA → push tag.
2. `ssh central`, `git pull` on `/opt/central`. **No `uv sync`** (no new dep).
3. **`central-migrate`** to apply migration 039 (seeds `config.adapters` row + bumps `config.streams.max_bytes` for CENTRAL_SAT).
4. `sudo systemctl restart central-supervisor` (picks up STREAM_CATEGORY_DOMAINS extension + new adapter discovery).
5. `sudo systemctl restart central-gui` (picks up new partials + ADAPTER_GROUPS change).
6. **No** `central-archive` restart (CENTRAL_SAT stream already exists; no new stream).
7. Verify: `nats stream info CENTRAL_SAT` shows max_bytes=5368709120; supervisor journal shows sat_positions discovered.
8. Smoke-test: enable celestrak_tle first if not already, wait for one poll, then enable sat_positions via GUI. Within 60s expect one `central.sat.position.<norad_id>` event per tracked sat on the stream.

## Halt acknowledgment

Per spec acceptance bar #6: **squash-merge NOT authorized**. Branch + PR open. Halting for line-by-line review.
