maziggy 4440738904 fix(drying): dry a composite spool as its base material (issue #3067)
The reporter's AMS-HT would not auto-dry PA6-CF, and drying the same spool by
hand worked. The scheduler reduced a tray to a preset key by splitting on spaces
only, so "PA6-CF" stayed "PA6-CF", matched none of the eight rows the preset
table has, and the tray was read as holding nothing worth drying. The AMS was
then passed over on every scheduler sweep, silently, because every caller reads
"no row" as "nothing to do for this tray".

It was never only nylon. Of the 41 types a printer can report, 33 had no row
under that rule, and 20 of those have a base material sitting right there: every
-CF, -GF and -AERO variant of PLA, PETG, ABS, ASA, PC and PA.

Doing it by hand worked because the drying popover has resolved composites since
exact key first, so a row the user added for the exact type still wins, then the
suffix, then an alias map reading PA6, PA11, PA12, PAHT, PPA and Nylon as PA.

PPA is the one alias that is a judgement rather than a spelling. Polyphthalamide
is a distinct polymer, not a grade of nylon -- but it is an aromatic polyamide,
it takes up moisture the same way, and PA's row is the hottest the table has.

A material with no row and no alias is still skipped rather than dried at a
number nothing here can source. That is where this parts company with the
popover, which falls back to PLA because a dropdown has to show something.

The table is user-editable JSON, so a preset row can be present and empty. That
has always meant "skip this material" and still does: the temp and hours reads
fall back per field to 55C/12h, which would dry a PLA spool at 55 degrees.

Two more callers had the same line and move with it: per-filament humidity
thresholds, where the override set for a material never applied to that
material's composites, and the chamber preheat target, which had the suffix half
of this from #2902 but not the aliases.

The preheat test for that half reimplemented the lookup inline rather than
calling it, so it would have passed whatever the function did. It calls it now.

maziggy 069ee8fc87 fix(queue): skip preheat entirely when no loaded filament wants a chamber (issue #3041)
Preheat & Heat Soak delayed every PLA print by five to seven minutes and
gave nothing back. The filament map correctly derived a chamber target of
0, and the chamber phase correctly skipped -- but the stage then heated
the bed, waited for it, and held the full soak anyway, because the soak
had no idea it was holding for a chamber nobody asked for. The print's
own G-code sets the bed the moment it starts, so the bed phase only moved
the warm-up ahead of the FTP upload instead of overlapping with it.

A 0 that comes out of the filament map now skips the stage before any
command goes out. The one thing the skip still does is put the airduct
flap back to cooling on the models that have one -- an H2D left in
heating mode by the ABS job before it would otherwise cook the PLA that
follows, and that costs one MQTT command and no waiting.

Explicit instructions are untouched. A chamber target of 0 typed into a
print's own override still heats the bed and runs the soak, which is what
the queue documentation has always promised it does, as does forcing a
print's Preheat override to On. Prints that want chamber heat are
unaffected, including the P1S/P1P/A1 tier where the bed and the soak
timer are the whole mechanism.

The existing unit tests all ran with soak_seconds=0, which is why the
production default was never exercised; the PLA test now runs at the real
default and asserts nothing is dispatched and nothing is slept.

Surfaced in the UI on the way through: the Settings hint claimed the
derived 0 skipped "the chamber phase", and the per-print chamber override
field said nothing about a typed 0 meaning bed-only -- a user reaching
for 0 to turn preheat off got the delay instead.

maziggy 7b181b84f0 Let a filled or foamed filament keep its own name (issue #2902)
The reduction that gave an AMS slot a material type read PLA-AERO,
PLA-GF, ASA-GF and PPS-GF as their base material, so a slot loaded with
foaming or glass-filled filament went out saying plain PLA or ASA. That
is worse than the bug it replaced. "PLA-AERO" matched nothing before,
which was useless but honest; "PLA" matches every PLA plate in the
queue, so the dispatcher would have sent one to filament that will not
print it -- and the contract the first fix claimed, that it could only
ever repair a slot, no longer held. @doncaruana caught PLA Aero on the
issue.

All four are values Bambuddy itself offers: filament_fields.json is the
material list the Profiles editor puts in a dropdown, and the reduction
table was assembled from the cloud filament names and the frontend
preset parser without ever being checked against it. It is checked now,
so the next type added to one and not the other fails a test rather than
a print. ASA-AERO joins them from the cloud catalogue (GFB02).

The table hyphenates because the slicers do, while a spool says "PLA
Aero" and every Bambu preset name says "Bambu PLA Aero". Adjacent words
are joined and taken when the join is a type exactly -- exactly, because
letting the prefix and suffix rules reach across a space would make
"Support for PLA" a type by its tail.

Also from @doncaruana, and the better half of his point: a preset is
chosen from a list the slicer defines, so it already knows its own type
and nothing has to be read out of a product name. The resolver now hands
that answer back and both assign routes prefer it. It cannot be the only
source -- material is required on a spool and slicer_filament is not, and
the spool this issue was reported for had no preset at all -- so the
reduction stays as the fallback for spools without one.

Two things had to move with it. The auto-unlink guard compared the
slot's reported type against the reduced material, so a spool whose
preset outranked its material column would have been unlinked from the
slot it had just been assigned to; it now accepts any type the assign
path could have written. And two lookups keyed by material took the
catch-all for a type they had no row for, which sent an ASA-GF spool out
at 200/240 -- too cold to extrude -- and preheated its chamber to
nothing. Both fall back to the base material last, so PLA-CF, PETG-CF
and PA-CF keep the rows they are listed with, and ASA-CF and ABS-GF pick
up ranges they had been missing all along.

What counts as a material name is decided by the base for the same
reason: saying yes throws the value away and rescues the slot from the
generic-material fallback, so the answer has to be no when that fallback
has nothing to offer. ABS-GF reduces to a generic ABS the printer can
resolve; PPS-CF reduces to nothing and is left as it stands. Adding a
type to the table therefore cannot quietly change that answer, which is
how these five slipped through in the first place.

------

Hand the bundled chamber-preheat table back the way it is read

Every lookup of the per-filament chamber map happens after the keys are
upper-cased, and the parser documents exactly that: keys uppercased,
DEFAULT always present so the resolution loop can index it
unconditionally. The three fallback paths returned the bundled constant
as declared, with the lowercase "default" row the Settings editor writes
and displays, so an install that had never opened the setting got a dict
the loop could not read its fallback out of and used a hardcoded 0 for
any filament without a row of its own.

It reported the right number only because that bundled default is 0.
Raising it would have changed nothing for everyone who had not
customised the map, with the map in Settings still showing the value
that was not being used.

The test that should have caught this asserted the fallback under either
spelling, and its docstring contradicted itself between title and
comment. It pins the contract now, over all four ways the parser can
fall back.

Thomas Scott Williams f86f5a7c34 feat(queue): keep the chamber warm between prints and skip redundant soak
Back-to-back prints in chamber-heated materials (ASA, ABS, PA, PC) each paid
a full heat-soak from cold, even when the print that just finished had left
the chamber at temperature. Two changes remove that cost.

Keep bed warm between prints
  While a printer sits in FINISH awaiting plate-clear and the next queued item
  needs chamber heat, hold the bed hot so the chamber does not cool during the
  bed-clearing window. The bed is the chamber's heating element here, not a
  print surface, so the hold runs at the new `queue_keep_warm_bed_temp`
  (default 90C, which also satisfies bed-threshold-linked aftermarket chamber
  heaters), raised to the item's own bed temperature when that is higher.

  Gated on `queue_keep_bed_warm` AND `require_plate_clear` AND
  `preheat_enabled`, all re-checked in the backend so a stale UI cannot leave
  the feature running. `queue_keep_warm_max_minutes` (default 120) bounds the
  hold: when it elapses the bed is switched off and the hold latches until the
  printer is next a candidate, so a plate nobody clears cannot leave the bed
  hot indefinitely. The hold is also released when the item is deleted, the
  queue empties, or a gate is toggled off mid-hold, and never when firmware
  reports a target other than the one it set — a temperature the user or a
  print changed is left alone. Publishing is idempotent.

Smart soak reduction from chamber history
  The scheduler samples each connected printer's chamber temperature every tick
  into a 2h rolling history. Preheat credits time the chamber has already spent
  at temperature against the configured soak, shortening or skipping it.

  Credit starts no earlier than the newest sample, the most recent unbroken run
  of samples, or the end of the last real dip below target. A dip only counts
  once it outlasts a grace period: an enclosed chamber cannot lose and regain
  several degrees quickly (measured on an X1C, cooling from 55C to below 48C
  takes 23-73 minutes, ~0.2 C/min), so a brief low reading is a door opening or
  sensor noise rather than lost soak — and a plate swap, which is exactly when
  keep-warm runs, produces one. A stale history credits nothing: at that
  cooling rate the chamber can cross the threshold unobserved, so the full soak
  runs instead.

Three supporting changes to preheat itself:

  * Cancelling or deleting a queued item now stops a preheat already running
    for it. Those routes only write `status` to the database, which a dispatch
    coroutine parked in `asyncio.sleep` cannot observe, so the heaters ran for
    the rest of max_wait + soak — 45 minutes at the default settings — and the
    printer stayed in `busy_printers`, blocking every other queued item behind
    a print that was not happening. The routes now signal the scheduler
    directly, and the stage sleeps in slices so it notices promptly and
    abandons the dispatch, letting the existing rollback shut the heaters off.

  * A chamber-heated print whose slicer metadata carries no bed temperature
    (common for Orca-exported 3MFs) used to skip preheat entirely and start
    with a cold chamber. It now heats the bed to `queue_keep_warm_bed_temp`.
    A parsed bed temperature still wins, and a print with no chamber
    requirement still skips — no bed temperature is invented for the print
    itself. Preheat's bed target is transient regardless: the print's own
    gcode issues its M140/M190 at start.

  * Preheat records which commands it sent (bed, chamber, airduct) and unwinds
    them if the dispatch aborts before the print starts — a failed upload, a
    cancelled item, an exception — instead of leaving the printer heating for
    a job that is not happening.

maziggy 80687982c1 fix(db): release scheduler/cloud/cover sessions across slow I/O, add LIFO pool (#2572)
Three more idle-in-transaction / thundering-herd paths from farm testing:

- print_scheduler: _start_print commits before the FTP delete/upload and
  _preheat_and_soak commits before the heat-soak wait, so the per-item
  session no longer sits idle-in-transaction across preheat + upload.
- cloud/filament-info: rollback the request transaction after the token
  read and before the sequential Bambu Cloud calls; single-flight
  concurrent misses for the same setting_id through one shared call.
- printers/cover: coalesce identical in-flight cover requests so followers
  serve from the cache the leader fills instead of duplicating the
  multi-path FTP + 3MF extraction.

Also adds pool_use_lifo (PostgreSQL default on, DB_POOL_USE_LIFO override,
shown in /system/db-pool) so a bursty farm keeps a small hot connection set.

maziggy 61a7f2e4ac feat(scheduler): preheat & heat-soak before queued prints with per-filament chamber targets + airduct flap control (#1468)
New scheduler stage that heats the bed (and the chamber, on supported
printers) and holds at temperature before each queued print starts —
the heat-soak engineering filaments need for adhesion and warp
control. Bambuddy waits between FTP upload and start_print, so the
soak runs while the printer is otherwise idle. M191 is silently
ignored by Bambu firmware, so doing this at the orchestration layer
is the only place it works.

Resolution order at dispatch:

1. PrintQueueItem.preheat_override ∈ {inherit, on, off}.
   'off' skips entirely; 'inherit' falls back to the global
   preheat_enabled toggle; 'on' forces the stage even when the
   global is off.

2. chamber_target = item.preheat_chamber_target_override
                 ?? max(filament_map[normalize(t.tray_type)] for loaded slots)
                 ?? 0.
   Mixed PA+PLA picks PA's 50 (max-across-slots — PA's chamber
   requirement is binding, PLA doesn't suffer being warm). PLA-only
   derives 0 and skips the chamber phase automatically.

3. Three hardware tiers for chamber heat:
   - Active chamber heater (H2C/H2D/H2D Pro/H2S/X2D/X1E) → M141 +
     chamber-sensor wait
   - Chamber sensor only (X1C/P2S) → no M141, passive bed-radiation
     wait with hard max-wait cap
   - No chamber sensor (P1S/P1P/A1/A1 Mini) → bed + soak timer only

4. Airduct flap (H2C/H2D/H2D Pro/H2S/X2D/P2S) auto-switches to
   match the chamber target — heating mode for engineering
   filaments, cooling mode for PLA. Bambu firmware does NOT
   auto-switch the flap with M141, so without this an ABS print
   on a previously-cooling flap fights the open exhaust, and a
   PLA print on a previously-hot flap recirculates ABS heat.
   Idempotent: only fires set_airduct_mode when current ≠ desired.

Settings → Workflow → Queue & Dispatch → Preheat & Heat Soak card:
master enable toggle (default off — disabled installs see no change),
per-filament chamber-target editor (replaces a single global int that
shipped in the first cut and couldn't serve PA + PLA in the same
config), preheat_max_wait_seconds, preheat_soak_seconds. The Print
Options panel in PrintModal gets a Preheat sub-section with the
tri-state Inherit/On/Off control and an optional chamber-target
override input.

DB migration: PrintQueueItem gains preheat_override VARCHAR(10)
DEFAULT 'inherit' and preheat_chamber_target_override INTEGER NULL.
Idempotent via _safe_execute. Existing rows behave exactly as before
the migration.

Best-effort throughout: printer drops, refused M141 or set_airduct,
missing bed temp, lost MQTT state mid-wait all log and return cleanly.
Normal upload + start path runs after this returns regardless.
