style: palette swatch → (domain-hue redesign 2026-05-21)

Sidebar swatch now follows function family rather than S88 level, so the
palette is visually identifiable instead of monochromatically blue. Editor-group
rectangles in flow.json still follow S88 — only the registerType color changed.
Full table + rationale: superproject .claude/rules/node-red-flow-layout.md §10.0
and .claude/refactor/OPEN_QUESTIONS.md (2026-05-21 entry).

+
+| Canonical | Aliases (deprecated) | Payload | Effect |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `cmd.start` | `i_start` | truthy/falsy | Sets `source.i_start`. On the next tick a sampling run begins if flow bounds validate. |
+| `set.schedule` | `monsternametijden` | array of AQUON rows (`SAMPLE_NAME`, `DESCRIPTION`, `SAMPLED_DATE`, `START_DATE`, `END_DATE`) | Stores the schedule and recomputes `nextDate` + `daysPerYear` for the configured `aquonSampleName`. |
+| `set.rain` | `rain_data` | per-location rain forecast (Open-Meteo shape) | Aggregates hourly precipitation into `sumRain` / `avgRain`; feeds the rain-scaled flow prediction. |
+| `data.flow` | `input_q` | `{ value: number, unit: string }` | Converts to m³/h and pushes into `flow.manual.atequipment`. Blends with measured-child flow in `getEffectiveFlow()`. |

+
+## Outputs (msg.topic on Port 0/1/2)
+
+- **Port 0 (process):** `msg.topic = config.general.name`. Payload built
+  by `outputUtils.formatMsg(..., 'process')` from `getOutput()`. Delta-
+  compressed — only changed fields are emitted. Carries `pulse`, `running`,
+  `bucketVol`, `sumPuls`, `predFlow`, `m3PerPuls`, `q`, `timeLeft`,
+  `targetVolumeM3`, `targetProgressPct`, `targetDeltaL`, `predictedRateM3h`,
+  `sumRain`, `avgRain`, `nextDate`, plus the flat measurements snapshot.
+- **Port 1 (InfluxDB telemetry):** same shape as Port 0, formatted with the
+  `'influxdb'` formatter.
+- **Port 2 (registration):** at startup the node sends one
+  `{ topic: 'child.register', payload: <node.id>, positionVsParent, distance }`
+  to its parent.
+
+## Events emitted by `source.measurements.emitter`
+
+The `MeasurementContainer` fires `<type>.measured.<position>` whenever a
+matching series receives a new value. monster writes:
+
+- `flow.manual.atequipment` — operator-supplied manual flow.
+- `flow.measured.<position>` — re-emitted when a child measurement fires
+  (one of `flow.measured.upstream`, `flow.measured.downstream`,
+  `flow.measured.atequipment`).
+
+## Children accepted
+
+`measurement` only. The router subscribes to a child's
+`flow.measured.<position>` events when the child's `config.asset.type` is
+`'flow'` (or missing). Other asset types are ignored. monster has no
+position-based filtering — all three positions are wired and the latest
+value wins for each.

 # Monster Example Flows
 
-Import-ready Node-RED examples for `monster`.
+Import-ready Node-RED examples for `monster` — a sampling-cabinet pulse
+counter (volumetric, not an analytical multi-parameter monitor; see
+the framing note in `CONTRACT.md`).
+
+## Files present in this repo
 
-## Files
 - `basic.flow.json`
-  - Purpose: quick-start flow with dashboard charts for key monster outputs.
-- `integration.flow.json`
-  - Purpose: lightweight integration contract example (`registerChild` path).
-- `edge.flow.json`
-  - Purpose: unknown-topic/edge handling smoke example.
-- `monster-dashboard.flow.json`
-  - Purpose: richer dashboard-focused visualization of process output.
-  - Includes:
-    - manual flow input
-    - manual start trigger
-    - seeded `rain_data` and `monsternametijden`
-    - parsed report fields (`m3Total`, `m3PerPuls`, `pulse`, `running`)
-- `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json`
-  - Purpose: full orchestration template around `monster` with API paths and dashboard output.
-  - Includes:
-    - Open-Meteo weather fetch -> `rain_data`
-    - Aquon SFTP CSV fetch -> `monsternametijden`
-    - Z-Info token + import payload builder for `m3Total`/`m3PerPuls`
-    - dashboard API publish template (Grafana)
-    - placeholder-only credentials/hosts (`__SET_*__`)
+  - Inject-driven quick-start flow with the dashboard widgets for the
+    main monster outputs (`pulse`, `bucketVol`, `m3PerPuls`, `running`,
+    `predFlow`).
+- `02-integrated-e2e.json`
+  - End-to-end orchestration template: wires a flow source, a schedule,
+    rain-data input, and the dashboard surface. **Not yet validated
+    against live Node-RED** — treat as a wiring reference until smoke-
+    tested. Placeholder credentials (`__SET_*__`) need to be replaced
+    before any real deployment.
 
-## Notes
-- `basic.flow.json` and `monster-dashboard.flow.json` are intentionally API-free.
-- `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json` is the full API template variant and must be hardened with environment-backed secrets before production use.
-- `ui-chart` uses series by `msg.topic` (`category: "topic"`, `categoryType: "msg"`).
+## Files referenced in earlier docs but not yet shipped
+
+`integration.flow.json`, `edge.flow.json`, `monster-dashboard.flow.json`,
+and `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json` were mentioned by prior versions
+of this README; they do not exist in the repo at this commit. They are
+tracked as TODOs in `wiki/Reference-Examples.md`. When generated, follow
+the tier convention used by the rotatingMachine examples
+(`01-Basic.json`, `02-Integration.json`, `03-Dashboard.json`).
+
+## Conventions
+
+- `ui-chart` uses series by `msg.topic` (`category: "topic"`,
+  `categoryType: "msg"`).
+- API templates (rain fetch / Aquon SFTP / Z-Info import) must be
+  hardened with environment-backed secrets before production use.

+A `monster` models the physical "monsternamekast" (composite-sampling cabinet) on a wastewater treatment plant. It runs an AQUON-scheduled, flow-proportional sampling program: aggregates measured + manual flow, blends in a rain-scaled prediction, integrates volume, and emits a `pulse` event whenever the integrated volume crosses `m³ per pulse`. Used downstream of `reactor` / `settler` for compliance + process diagnostics — but note that the node only **integrates flow** in the current implementation; multi-constituent reporting (NH4, NO3, COD, TSS, …) is a downstream consumer concern, not produced by this node.

+
+## Try it &mdash; 3-minute demo
+
+Import the basic example flow, deploy, and drive the sampler through a single run.
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  --data @nodes/monster/examples/basic.flow.json \
+  http://localhost:1880/flow
+```
+
+What to click after deploy (the inject buttons map to the topics in [Reference &mdash; Contracts](Reference-Contracts#topic-contract)):
+
+1. `set.rain` &mdash; push an Open-Meteo precipitation snapshot so `sumRain` / `avgRain` populate (otherwise the rain-scaled prediction stays at `nominalFlowMin`).
+2. `set.schedule` &mdash; push an AQUON row array so `nextDate` arms.
+3. `data.flow = {value: 240, unit: 'm3/h'}` &mdash; supply a manual flow value (or wire a `measurement` child for the measured path).
+4. `cmd.start = true` &mdash; releases the start gate. On the next 1000 ms tick the sampling program checks `validateFlowBounds`; if `nominalFlowMin < flowMax`, `_beginRun` fires, `running` flips to `true`, and the bucket integrator starts.
+5. Watch Port 0: `pulse` blips to `true` for one tick whenever `temp_pulse` crosses 1; `bucketVol` rises in 50 mL steps (the hard-coded `subSampleVolume`); `sumPuls` increments.
+6. After `constraints.samplingtime` hours `_endRun` fires and `running` flips to `false`.

+
+## The seven things you'll send
+
+| Topic | Aliases | Payload | What it does |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| `cmd.start` | `i_start` | truthy / falsy | Sets `source.i_start`. On the next tick a sampling run begins if `validateFlowBounds` passes. |
+| `set.schedule` | `monsternametijden` | array of AQUON rows (`SAMPLE_NAME`, `DESCRIPTION`, `SAMPLED_DATE`, `START_DATE`, `END_DATE`) | Stores the schedule and recomputes `nextDate` + `daysPerYear` for the configured `aquonSampleName`. |
+| `set.rain` | `rain_data` | per-location rain forecast (Open-Meteo shape) | Aggregates hourly precipitation into `sumRain` / `avgRain`; feeds the rain-scaled flow prediction. Ignored while `running=true`. |
+| `data.flow` | `input_q` | `{ value: number, unit: string }` | Converts to m³/h and pushes into `flow.manual.atequipment`. Blends with measured-child flow in `getEffectiveFlow()`. |
+| `set.mode` | `setMode` | string | Reserved &mdash; handler delegates to `source.setMode()` which is currently undefined. No-op today. |
+| `set.model-prediction` | `model_prediction` | numeric | Reserved &mdash; handler delegates to `source.setModelPrediction()` which is currently undefined. No-op today. |
+| `child.register` | `registerChild` | string (child node id) | Register a `measurement` child. Port 2 wiring does this automatically. |
+
+There is no `query.*` topic on monster (unlike `rotatingMachine`'s `query.curves` / `query.cog`). All state is on Port 0.

+
+| Field | Meaning |
+|:---|:---|
+| `running` | Run/idle flag &mdash; monster has no formal FSM, just this boolean and the timer fields below. |
+| `pulse` | `true` for the tick on which a pulse is emitted; falls back to `false` on the next tick. |
+| `bucketVol` / `bucketWeight` | Accumulated composite volume (L) and total bucket mass (kg = vol + `emptyWeightBucket`). |
+| `sumPuls` / `pulsesRemaining` | Pulses fired this run vs target ceiling. |
+| `m3PerPuls` | Volume per pulse, set at `_beginRun` from `predFlow / targetPuls`. |
+| `m3Total` | Total integrated flow this run (m³). |
+| `q` | Effective flow (m³/h) &mdash; `flowTracker.getEffectiveFlow()` blends measured + manual. |
+| `predFlow` / `predM3PerSec` | Predicted total volume over the run window (m³) and its average rate. |
+| `timeLeft` / `timePassed` | Run-window seconds remaining / elapsed. |
+| `targetVolumeM3` / `targetProgressPct` / `targetDeltaL` | Target composite volume (m³), % of target accumulated, signed L delta against target. |
+| `predictedRateM3h` | Rain-scaled flow prediction (m³/h) &mdash; between `nominalFlowMin` and `flowMax`. |
+| `sumRain` / `avgRain` | Probability-weighted hourly precipitation, summed / averaged across locations. |
+| `nextDate` / `daysPerYear` | Next scheduled run epoch ms; count of remaining runs this calendar year. |
+| `missedSamples` / `sampleCooldownMs` | Cooldown-blocked pulse count; ms remaining on the active cooldown. |
+| `invalidFlowBounds` | True when `nominalFlowMin >= flowMax` &mdash; gates `_beginRun`. |
+
+Full Port-0 key list: see [Reference &mdash; Contracts &mdash; Data model](Reference-Contracts#data-model--getoutput-shape).
+
+Key shape is **flat scalars on the snapshot** plus a `MeasurementContainer.getFlattenedOutput()` flush of `flow.<variant>.<position>` entries. monster does **not** use the four-segment `<type>.<variant>.<position>.<childId>` shape that `rotatingMachine` emits — no `childId` is appended because monster fans incoming children into the same three positions and the latest value wins.

+### Tier responsibilities
+
+| Tier | File | What it owns | Touches `RED.*` |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---:|
+| entry | `monster.js` | Type registration; `/monster/menu.js` + `/monster/configData.js` HTTP endpoints | Yes |
+| nodeClass | `src/nodeClass.js` | `tickInterval = 1000` (sampling integrator needs wall-clock delta), `statusInterval = 1000`, `buildDomainConfig` slice, `extraSetup` propagates `aquonSampleName` | Yes |
+| specificClass | `src/specificClass.js` | Wire concern modules in `configure()`; expose the public surface legacy tests call (`monster.bucketVol`, `monster.q`, `monster.sampling_program()`, …); delegate everything else | No |
+
+`specificClass` is orchestration. Real work lives in the concern modules: pure math in `parameters/`, schedule walking in `schedule/`, aggregation in `rain/`, the sampling integrator in `sampling/`.
+
+---
+
+## Sampling program — the time-driven core
+
+monster has **no formal FSM**. The `running` boolean toggles when `_beginRun` / `_endRun` fire. The closest analogue to a state diagram is the per-tick decision tree:
+
+```mermaid
+flowchart TB
+    tick[tick() — every 1000 ms]
+    tick --> q[q = flowTracker.getEffectiveFlow()]
+    q --> fc[flowCalc&#40;&#41;<br/>m3PerTick = q/3600 * dt]
+    fc --> sp[samplingProgram&#40;&#41;]
+    sp --> trig{i_start OR<br/>now ≥ nextDate?<br/>AND NOT running}
+    trig -- yes --> vb{validateFlowBounds?}
+    vb -- no --> done[return — running stays false]
+    vb -- yes --> begin[_beginRun<br/>m3PerPuls = predFlow / targetPuls<br/>stop_time = now + samplingtime·h]
+    trig -- no --> active{stop_time &gt; now?}
+    begin --> active
+    active -- yes --> integ[temp_pulse += m3PerTick / m3PerPuls<br/>m3Total += m3PerTick]
+    integ --> pulse[_maybeEmitPulse]
+    pulse --> emit{temp_pulse ≥ 1<br/>AND sumPuls &lt; absMaxPuls?}
+    emit -- no --> notify[notifyOutputChanged]
+    emit -- yes --> cd{cooldown<br/>blocked?}
+    cd -- yes --> miss[missedSamples++<br/>warn one-shot]
+    miss --> notify
+    cd -- no --> fire[temp_pulse -= 1<br/>pulse = true<br/>sumPuls++<br/>bucketVol += 50 mL]
+    fire --> notify
+    active -- no, running --> endR[_endRun — running = false]
+    endR --> notify
+```
+
+Key invariants:
+
+- One pulse per integrated `m³ per pulse`. The cooldown guard suppresses pulses inside `minSampleIntervalSec` and increments `missedSamples` (without rolling the integrator back &mdash; `temp_pulse` is clamped to `1` so subsequent ticks land on the same threshold once the cooldown clears).
+- `_beginRun` rounds `m3PerPuls = round(predFlow / targetPuls)`. With low `predFlow` this can round to 0; the integrator then divides by zero and `temp_pulse` becomes `Infinity`. Tracked &mdash; see [Limitations](Reference-Limitations#mperpuls-can-round-to-zero).
+- `subSampleVolume` is hard-coded at 50 mL via `volume_pulse = 0.05`. The schema enforces `min=max=50` so the field is informational only.
+- `set.rain` updates are **skipped while `running=true`** &mdash; the rain band is only re-evaluated between runs.
+
+---
+
+## Rain-scaled flow prediction
+
+`parameters.getPredictedFlowRate` linearly scales between `nominalFlowMin` and `flowMax`:
+
+```
+scale       = clamp(avgRain / maxRainRef, 0, 1)
+predicted   = nominalFlowMin + (flowMax - nominalFlowMin) * scale
+```
+
+with `avgRain` zeroed after `RAIN_STALE_MS = 2 hours` since the last `set.rain` update.
+
+`rainAggregator.update` folds the Open-Meteo per-location payload by timestamp, multiplying each hour's `precipitation` by its `precipitation_probability/100` and summing across locations. `avgRain` is the per-location mean of the probability-weighted sum.
+
+`getModelPrediction` (called inside `_beginRun`) computes the run's expected volume:
+
+```
+predFlow = max(0, predictedRate · samplingtime)
+        // falls back to getEffectiveFlow when predictedRate is 0
+```
+
+So `predFlow` is total m³ over the run window, and `m3PerPuls = round(predFlow / targetPuls)`.
+
+---
+
+## Flow blending
+
+`flowTracker` owns three writers:
+
+| Source | Where it writes |
+|:---|:---|
+| `data.flow` (operator / parent) | `flow.manual.atequipment` |
+| Child `flow.measured.upstream` | `flow.measured.upstream` |
+| Child `flow.measured.atequipment` | `flow.measured.atequipment` |
+| Child `flow.measured.downstream` | `flow.measured.downstream` |
+
+`getEffectiveFlow()` blends:
+
+```
+measured = mean(flow.measured.upstream/atequipment/downstream where present)
+manual   = flow.manual.atequipment
+
+effective = (measured + manual) / 2  if both present
+          = measured                 if only measured present
+          = manual                   if only manual present
+          = 0                        otherwise
+```
+
+There is no source-priority / preference policy &mdash; both sources contribute equally when both are present. Contrast with `rotatingMachine`'s `pressureSelector` which prefers real over virtual children.
+
+---
+
+## Lifecycle &mdash; what one event does
+

+    participant ops as operator / AQUON
+    participant monster as monster

+    monster->>ft: handleMeasuredFlow(eventData)

+        sp->>sp: _maybeEmitPulse (cooldown-guarded)
+    else stop_time elapsed
+        sp->>sp: _endRun
+    end
+    monster->>out: notifyOutputChanged (Port 0/1 delta)
+```
+
+### Tick interval
+
+`static tickInterval = 1000` (ms). Set on `nodeClass`. Required by the integrator &mdash; `flowCalc` derives `m3PerTick` from the wall-clock delta since the last tick, so the loop must run at a stable cadence.
+
+### Status interval
+
+`static statusInterval = 1000` (ms). The status badge re-renders at the same cadence as the tick.
+
+---
+
+## Output ports
+
+| Port | Carries | Sample shape |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| 0 (process) | Delta-compressed state snapshot &mdash; `pulse`, `running`, `bucketVol`, `sumPuls`, `m3PerPuls`, `q`, `predFlow`, `timeLeft`, target deltas, rain summary, `nextDate` | `{topic, payload: {running, pulse, bucketVol, ...}}` |
+| 1 (telemetry) | InfluxDB line-protocol payload (same fields as Port 0) | `monster,id=cabinet_1 running=true,pulse=false,bucketVol=1.25,m3PerPuls=4,...` |
+| 2 (register / control) | `child.register` upward at init | `{topic: 'child.register', payload: {ref, softwareType, config, positionVsParent, distance}}` |
+
+monster does **not** include a `<childId>` segment on flattened measurement keys (it has no per-child key disambiguation &mdash; the latest value per position wins).
+
+See [EVOLV &mdash; Telemetry](https://gitea.wbd-rd.nl/RnD/EVOLV/wiki/Telemetry) for the full InfluxDB layout.
+
+---
+
+## Event sources
+
+| Source | Where it fires | What it triggers |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| Child measurement emitter | `child.measurements.emitter` on `flow.measured.<upstream/atequipment/downstream>` | `flowTracker.handleMeasuredFlow` |
+| Inbound `msg.topic` | Node-RED input wire | `commandRegistry` dispatch → handler |
+| `setInterval(tickInterval = 1000)` | `BaseNodeAdapter` | `tick()` → `flowCalc` → `samplingProgram` → `notifyOutputChanged` |
+| `setInterval(statusInterval = 1000)` | `BaseNodeAdapter` | Status badge re-render |
+
+There is no per-state emitter (no `stateChange` / `positionChange`) &mdash; monster is purely tick-driven.

+
+## Topic contract
+
+The registry lives in `src/commands/index.js`. Each descriptor maps a canonical `msg.topic` to its handler; aliases emit a one-time deprecation warning the first time they fire.
+
+<!-- BEGIN AUTOGEN: topic-contract -->
+
+| Canonical topic | Aliases | Payload | Unit | Effect |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `cmd.start` | `i_start` | any | — | Trigger / release the sampler start gate. |
+| `set.schedule` | `monsternametijden` | any | — | Replace the sampling-times schedule. |
+| `set.rain` | `rain_data` | any | — | Push current rain-event data into the sampler logic. |
+| `data.flow` | `input_q` | `object` | — | Push the upstream flow measurement (payload: {value, unit}). |
+| `set.mode` | `setMode` | any | — | Switch the monster between auto / manual modes. |
+| `set.model-prediction` | `model_prediction` | any | — | Push the upstream rain-prediction snapshot used by the sampler. |
+| `child.register` | `registerChild` | `string` | — | Register a child node (typically a measurement) with this monster. |
+
+<!-- END AUTOGEN: topic-contract -->
+
+### Mode / source / action allow-lists
+
+monster has **no allow-list enforcement**. There is no `flowController.handle` equivalent and no `mode.allowedActions` / `mode.allowedSources` config slice. The `set.mode` handler is a placeholder. Compare `rotatingMachine`, which gates every topic through the mode matrix &mdash; on monster, every topic dispatches unconditionally.
+
+---
+
+## Data model &mdash; `getOutput()` shape
+
+Composed each tick by `src/io/output.js` `buildOutput()`. Delta-compressed: consumers see only the keys that changed.
+
+### Flat measurement keys
+
+For every `(type, variant, position)` stored in MeasurementContainer, `getFlattenedOutput()` emits the three-segment key (note: monster does **not** add a `<childId>` segment, unlike `rotatingMachine`):
+
+| Key | Type | Unit | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| `flow.manual.atequipment` | number | m³/h | Last `data.flow` value (after conversion). |
+| `flow.measured.upstream` | number | m³/h | Last measured-child reading at this position. |
+| `flow.measured.atequipment` | number | m³/h | Same. |
+| `flow.measured.downstream` | number | m³/h | Same. |

+
+Source of truth: `generalFunctions/src/configs/monster.json` plus `nodeClass.buildDomainConfig`.
+
+### General (`config.general`)
+
+| Form field | Config key | Default | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| Name | `general.name` | `"Monster Configuration"` | Free-text. |
+| (auto-assigned) | `general.id` | `null` | Node-RED node id. |
+| Default unit | `general.unit` | `unitless` | Not used by the sampling program. |
+| Enable logging | `general.logging.enabled` | `true` | Master switch. |
+| Log level | `general.logging.logLevel` | `info` | `debug` / `info` / `warn` / `error`. |
+
+### Functionality (`config.functionality`)
+
+| Form field | Config key | Default | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| (hidden) | `functionality.softwareType` | `monster` | Constant. |
+| (hidden) | `functionality.role` | `samplingCabinet` | Constant. |
+| AQUON sample name | `functionality.aquonSampleName` | _unset_ | Forwarded to `source.aquonSampleName` in `extraSetup`. Falls back to `'112100'` in `_initState`. |
+
+### Asset (`config.asset`)
+
+| Form field | Config key | Default | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| Asset UUID | `asset.uuid` | `null` | Globally-unique identifier. |
+| Geolocation | `asset.geoLocation` | `{x:0, y:0, z:0}` | |
+| Supplier | `asset.supplier` | `"Unknown"` | Schema only &mdash; not used by the sampling program. |
+| Type | `asset.type` | `"sensor"` (enum) | Schema only. |
+| SubType | `asset.subType` | `"pressure"` | Schema only; misleading default for a sampling cabinet (flag). |
+| Model | `asset.model` | `"Unknown"` | Schema only. |
+| Empty bucket weight (kg) | `asset.emptyWeightBucket` | `3` | Used in `bucketWeight = bucketVol + emptyWeightBucket` and in `maxVolume = maxWeight - emptyWeightBucket`. |
+
+### Constraints (`config.constraints`)
+
+| Form field | Config key | Default | Range | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| Sampling time (hr) | `constraints.samplingtime` | `0` | ≥ 0 | Run length. Used as `samplingtime · 3600 · 1000` ms for `stop_time`. |
+| Sampling period (hr) | `constraints.samplingperiod` | `24` | ≥ 1 | Documented as the fixed composite-collection period; not enforced by `samplingProgram` &mdash; the AQUON schedule arms the run. |
+| Min volume (L) | `constraints.minVolume` | `5` | ≥ 5 | Used in `targetVolume = minVolume · √(maxVolume / minVolume)`. |
+| Max weight (kg) | `constraints.maxWeight` | `23` | ≤ 23 | Bucket-overload bound; `maxVolume = maxWeight - emptyWeightBucket`. |
+| Sub-sample volume (mL) | `constraints.subSampleVolume` | `50` | fixed | Schema enforces `min=max=50`. Hard-coded as `volume_pulse = 0.05` in domain. |
+| Storage temperature (°C) | `constraints.storageTemperature.min/max` | `{1, 5}` | per-leg | Schema only &mdash; informational. |
+| Flowmeter present | `constraints.flowmeter` | `true` | bool | ⚠️ In schema but **not** wired in `buildDomainConfig`. Effectively always `true`. |
+| Closed system | `constraints.closedSystem` | `false` | bool | Schema only. |
+| Intake speed (m/s) | `constraints.intakeSpeed` | `0.3` | ≥ 0 | Schema only &mdash; informational. |
+| Intake diameter (mm) | `constraints.intakeDiameter` | `12` | ≥ 0 | Schema only &mdash; informational. |
+| Nominal flow min (m³/h) | `constraints.nominalFlowMin` | `0` | ≥ 0 | Lower bound of rain-driven flow prediction. |
+| Flow max (m³/h) | `constraints.flowMax` | `0` | ≥ 0 | Upper bound of rain-driven flow prediction. |
+| Max rain reference | `constraints.maxRainRef` | `10` | > 0 | Rain index that maps to `flowMax`. |
+| Min sample interval (s) | `constraints.minSampleIntervalSec` | `60` | ≥ 0 | Cooldown guard. |
+
+> [!WARNING]
+> **Default `flowMax = 0` blocks every run.** `validateFlowBounds` requires `0 ≤ nominalFlowMin < flowMax`. Out of the box the bounds are invalid and `_beginRun` never fires. Set `flowMax` to a realistic upper bound before deploying.
+
+### Unit policy
+
+monster has **no `requireUnitForTypes` policy** declared in `specificClass`. Conversions happen at the boundary:
+
+| Quantity | Canonical (internal) | Carried as | Notes |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| Flow (`data.flow`) | m³/h | m³/h | `handlers.dataFlow` converts inbound via `convert(value).from(unit).to('m3/h')`. |
+| Flow (measured-child) | as supplied | as supplied | `flowTracker.handleMeasuredFlow` defaults to `'m3/h'` when `unit` is missing; **does not convert**. Wire children that emit in m³/h. |
+| Volume (`bucketVol`) | L | L | Output also exposes m³ derivations (`targetVolumeM3`, `targetDeltaM3`). |
+| Weight | kg | kg | |
+| Time | s (timers) / ms (timestamps) | mixed | `timePassed` / `timeLeft` in s, `nextDate` in epoch ms. |
+
+---
+
+## Child registration
+
+Source: `src/specificClass.js` `_wireMeasurementChild`. The registrar subscribes to all three `flow.measured.<position>` events on the child's measurement emitter as long as the child's `config.asset.type` is `'flow'` or unset.
+
+| Software type | Filter | Wired to | Side-effect |
+|:---|:---|:---|:---|
+| `measurement` | `asset.type='flow'` (or missing) | `flowTracker.handleMeasuredFlow` (handles all three positions) | Latches latest measured flow per position; `getEffectiveFlow` blends across positions and with `manualFlow`. |
+| `measurement` | `asset.type` anything else | _ignored_ | The branch returns early; no listener is attached. |
+
+monster has **no position-based filtering**. Unlike `rotatingMachine` (which routes upstream pressure separately from downstream), all three flow positions are wired to the same handler and the latest value per position wins.
+
+There are **no auto-registered virtual children** (no `dashboard-sim-*` equivalent). Inject simulated flow via `data.flow` instead.

+## Shipped examples
+

+

+
+## Loading a flow
+
+### Via the editor
+
+1. Open the Node-RED editor at `http://localhost:1880`.
+2. Menu → Import → drag the JSON file.
+3. Click Deploy.
+
+### Via the Admin API
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  --data @"nodes/monster/examples/basic.flow.json" \
+  http://localhost:1880/flows
+```
+
+---
+
+## Example 01 — Basic (`basic.flow.json`)
+
+Single-cabinet flow with the minimum inputs to drive one sampling run. Pending live validation.
+
+### Suggested click order after deploy
+
+1. **Seed the rain forecast.** Click the `set.rain` inject. `sumRain` / `avgRain` populate; `predictedRateM3h` jumps from `nominalFlowMin` to a band-scaled value. (Skip this step and the prediction collapses to `nominalFlowMin`, which is `0` out of the box — the run will still start, but `predFlow` will be 0 and `m3PerPuls` will round to 0; see [Limitations](Reference-Limitations#mperpuls-can-round-to-zero).)
+2. **Seed the schedule.** Click the `set.schedule` inject with an AQUON row array containing at least one `START_DATE` in the future for `aquonSampleName=112100` (the default).
+3. **Push a manual flow.** Click `data.flow = {value: 240, unit: 'm3/h'}`.
+4. **Start.** Click `cmd.start = true`. On the next tick `validateFlowBounds` runs &mdash; if `nominalFlowMin < flowMax`, `_beginRun` fires and `running` flips to `true`.
+5. **Watch Port 0.** `pulse` blips to `true` for one tick on each integrated-volume threshold cross. `bucketVol` rises in 50 mL steps. `sumPuls` increments.
+6. **Stop.** Either wait `samplingtime` hours for `_endRun`, or redeploy.
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> **Screenshot needed.** Editor capture of `basic.flow.json` after step 4. Save as `wiki/_partial-screenshots/monster/basic-running.png`.
+
+### Try the cooldown guard
+
+After the first pulse:
+
+1. Push a higher manual flow (`data.flow = {value: 1200, unit: 'm3/h'}`) so the integrator races past `m3PerPuls` again within `minSampleIntervalSec` (default 60 s).
+2. Watch the log: `Sampling too fast. Cooldown active for Ns.`
+3. `missedSamples` increments, `pulse` stays `false`, `sampleCooldownMs` ticks down to 0, then the next pulse fires.
+
+---
+
+## Example 02 &mdash; Integrated end-to-end (`02-integrated-e2e.json`)
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> **Screenshot needed.** Editor capture of `02-integrated-e2e.json`. Save as `wiki/_partial-screenshots/monster/02-integrated.png`. Replace this callout with the image link.
+
+One monster + one or more `measurement` flow children. Demonstrates:
+
+- Auto-registration via Port 2 at deploy (each child's `child.register` reaches the monster).
+- Measured + manual flow blend &mdash; `getEffectiveFlow` averages both when present.
+- Schedule-armed sampling run &mdash; `nextDate` triggers `_beginRun` without an `i_start` click.
+
+Detailed click order: pending review.
+
+---
+
+## Dashboard / API example flows
+
+The `examples/README.md` references `monster-dashboard.flow.json` (FlowFuse charts for `pulse`, `bucket`, `predFlow`) and `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json` (Open-Meteo + AQUON SFTP + Grafana publish template with placeholder credentials). Neither file is present at `cd185dc`. See the inventory note at the top of this page.
+
+When restored, the API flow MUST be hardened before production:
+
+- Replace every `__SET_*__` placeholder with an env-backed secret.
+- Pin the Open-Meteo endpoint and Aquon SFTP host to environment variables.
+- Route the dashboard publish through `dashboardAPI`, not a hardcoded Grafana URL.

+
+## Debug recipes
+
+| Symptom | First thing to check | Where to look |
+|:---|:---|:---|
+| `pulse` never fires | Is `running=true`? If not, check `validateFlowBounds` &mdash; the `Invalid flow bounds. nominalFlowMin=…, flowMax=…` warn means the default `flowMax=0` is in play. Set `nominalFlowMin < flowMax` in the editor. | `parameters/parameters.js → validateFlowBounds` |
+| `pulse` never fires (bounds OK) | Is `m3PerPuls` zero? `_beginRun` rounds `predFlow / targetPuls` to nearest integer m³. Low `predFlow` rounds to 0; integrator divides by 0 → `temp_pulse = Infinity`, the `sumPuls < absMaxPuls` guard then runs out. | `sampling/samplingProgram.js → _beginRun` |
+| Pulses arrive too fast / skipped | Cooldown guard active. Inspect `missedSamples` + `sampleCooldownMs`. Look for `Sampling too fast. Cooldown active for Ns.` in the log. | `sampling/samplingProgram.js → _maybeEmitPulse` |
+| `q` always zero | Measured-flow child not registered, manual flow not pushed. Watch Port 2 + `data.flow` history. | `flow/flowTracker.js` |
+| Measurement child ignored at register | Child's `config.asset.type` is set to something other than `"flow"` (e.g. `"flow-electromagnetic"`). monster only accepts `asset.type = "flow"` or unset. Set `asset.type: "flow"` on the measurement node. | `specificClass.js → _wireMeasurementChild` |
+| Measured-flow values look 60&times; high or wrong unit | `flowTracker.handleMeasuredFlow` does **not** convert: it stores the value as-supplied (defaulting unit to `'m3/h'`). Wire children that already emit m³/h or fix at the source. | `flow/flowTracker.js → handleMeasuredFlow` |
+| `nextDate` not arming | `set.schedule` payload didn't include any rows matching `aquonSampleName` with a future `START_DATE`. | `schedule/schedule.js → regNextDate` |
+| `sumRain` stays zero with rain input | `set.rain` is ignored while `running=true` &mdash; only consumed between runs. Wait for `_endRun` or push the rain payload before `cmd.start`. | `specificClass.js → updateRainData` |
+| `data.flow` payloads dropped silently | The handler requires `{value: <number>, unit: <string>}`. Bare numbers or missing `unit` log `data.flow payload must include numeric value and unit.` | `commands/handlers.js → dataFlow` |
+| `predictedRateM3h` stays at `nominalFlowMin` | `set.rain` not sent, `lastRainUpdate` is 0, or > 2 hours have passed (`RAIN_STALE_MS`). Re-push the rain payload. | `parameters/parameters.js → getRainIndex` |
+| `flowmeter=false` has no effect | `constraints.flowmeter` is in the schema but **not** wired in `buildDomainConfig`. The sampling program always runs in proportional mode. | `src/nodeClass.js → buildDomainConfig` |
+| `set.mode` / `set.model-prediction` no-op | Handlers delegate to `source.setMode()` / `source.setModelPrediction()` which don't exist. These topics are reserved for future use. | `commands/handlers.js` |
+| Status badge stuck at `Config error: …` | `nominalFlowMin >= flowMax`. Fix the bounds and redeploy. | `io/statusBadge.js` |
+
+> Never ship `enableLog: 'debug'` in a demo &mdash; fills the container log within seconds and obscures real errors.

+
+> [!NOTE]

+

+
+## When you would not use this node
+
+| Scenario | Use instead |
+|:---|:---|
+| Ad-hoc single grab sample | Fire `cmd.start` once and tear it down — monster is overkill for one-off work. A `measurement` child with a one-shot inject is lighter. |
+| Generic flow totaliser | `measurement` with the right type/variant, or a dedicated integrator function on the upstream parent. |
+| Multi-constituent analyser (NH4, NO3, COD, TSS, …) | monster only emits **pulse + bucket-volume** events — it does **not** model analyte concentrations. The Home page framing ("multi-parameter biological process monitor") describes the **downstream** consumer of the composite sample, not the monster node's outputs. Pending review whether the framing should change or whether analyte fields should be added to Port 0. |
+| Time-mode sampling (no flow source) | Not exercised. `constraints.flowmeter = false` exists in the schema but is **not** forwarded in `buildDomainConfig`; the sampling program always runs in flow-proportional mode. |
+
+---
+
+## Known limitations
+
+### `m3PerPuls` can round to zero
+
+`_beginRun` computes `m3PerPuls = Math.round(predFlow / targetPuls)`. With low `predFlow` (e.g. an unconfigured `flowMax`, a stale rain forecast, or a very short `samplingtime`) this rounds to 0. The integrator then divides by 0; `temp_pulse` becomes `Infinity`; the first iteration of `_maybeEmitPulse` ramps `sumPuls` up to `absMaxPuls` in one tick and stops. **Symptom: instant bucket fill, then idle.** Workaround: ensure `predFlow ≥ targetPuls` (typical `targetPuls` is 200), e.g. `flowMax ≥ 200 m³` or longer `samplingtime`. Tracked.
+
+### Default `flowMax = 0` blocks every run
+
+The schema defaults `nominalFlowMin = 0` and `flowMax = 0`. `validateFlowBounds` requires `min >= 0 && max > 0 && min < max`, so the default config is invalid and the run never starts. The status badge surfaces this as `Config error: nominalFlowMin (0) >= flowMax (0)`. Fix the bounds before deploying. Tracked.
+
+### `set.rain` is dropped while `running=true`
+
+`updateRainData` short-circuits when `running` is true &mdash; the rain forecast is only consumed between runs. During a long `samplingtime` (e.g. 24 h) the rain forecast goes stale silently. `getRainIndex` does enforce a 2-hour `RAIN_STALE_MS` cap on `avgRain`, but only **outside** a run; during a run the cached `predFlow` is whatever `_beginRun` froze. Open question.
+
+### `set.mode` and `set.model-prediction` are reserved
+
+Both handlers delegate to optional methods (`source.setMode()`, `source.setModelPrediction()`) that don't exist on `Monster`. Sending these topics is a no-op. They survive the registry only as forward-compatibility placeholders. Scheduled to either be implemented or removed in a later phase.
+
+### `constraints.flowmeter` is not wired
+
+The schema field exists with a `true` default, but `nodeClass.buildDomainConfig` does **not** forward it. The sampling program assumes a flow source unconditionally. Setting `flowmeter=false` in the editor has no runtime effect. Tracked.
+
+### `subSampleVolume` is hard-coded at 50 mL
+
+`volume_pulse = 0.05` in `_initSamplingDefaults` is a constant. The schema enforces `min=max=50` so the field is informational only. Bucket-and-target math (`minPuls`, `maxPuls`, `absMaxPuls`, `targetPuls`) all assume 50 mL. Changing this requires a coordinated change across `parameters.js`, the schema, and any consumer that decodes pulse counts back to volume. Tracked.
+
+### Measured-flow handler does not convert units
+
+`flowTracker.handleMeasuredFlow` reads `eventData.unit` but only uses it to label the stored measurement &mdash; the **value is not converted**. If a measurement child emits in `l/s`, monster stores the raw number and labels it `l/s`, but `getEffectiveFlow` is consumed as if it were m³/h. Wire children that already emit in m³/h, or set `default unit` on the child to `m3/h`. Tracked.
+
+### Edge test `sampling-guards.edge.test.js` cooldown-guard case fails
+
+A pre-existing failure documented in `CONTRACT.md` Section 14. The cooldown skip increments `missedSamples` but the assertion expects different timing. Tracked.
+
+### S88 colour cleanup pending
+
+The editor node colour in `monster.html` is `#4f8582` (teal). The correct Unit-level S88 colour is `#50a8d9`. The Mermaid diagrams in this wiki already use the correct colour. The editor node tile must be updated separately. Tracked in `.claude/rules/node-red-flow-layout.md` Section 16.
+
+### No formal FSM
+
+Unlike `rotatingMachine` (idle → starting → warmingup → operational → …) monster only has the `running` boolean. There is no protected-state guarantee, no abort token, no sequence registry. Cooldown and bounds are the only safety guards. If a future requirement needs e.g. a `pausing` / `paused` state, the sampling program needs to be lifted onto the platform's `state` module. Open question.
+
+### No multi-parent registration audit
+
+`childRegistrationUtils.registerChild` runs unconditionally. Whether monster can be safely wired under multiple parents (e.g. one reactor and one settler), and whether teardown ordering is correct, has not been audited. Open question.
+
+### Multi-constituent reporting absent
+
+The node's framing in the project memory ("multi-parameter biological process monitor &mdash; surrogate for a benchtop analyser") suggests monster reports NH4 / NO3 / COD / TSS / etc. **The current implementation does not.** monster emits volumetric pulse + bucket state only. Lab analyte values are produced by a separate downstream consumer that ingests the physical composite sample collected on the monster's pulses. Either:
+
+- the framing should be tightened to "composite sampler / sampling-cabinet controller", or
+- analyte fields (with timestamps and per-pulse correlations) should be added to Port 0.
+
+Pending decision-gate review.

+## Open questions (tracked)
+
+| Question | Where it lives |
+|:---|:---|
+| Should `set.rain` updates apply mid-run (best-effort `predFlow` re-compute) or stay run-frozen? | Internal &mdash; not yet ticketed |
+| Implement or remove `set.mode` + `set.model-prediction` placeholders | Internal |
+| Wire `constraints.flowmeter` and exercise the time-mode path | Internal |
+| Add unit conversion to `flowTracker.handleMeasuredFlow` | Internal |
+| Round-to-zero `m3PerPuls` &mdash; clamp to ≥ 1 or refuse to start? | Internal |
+| Multi-parent registration safety audit | Internal |
+| Add formal FSM (`idle` / `armed` / `running` / `cooldown`)? | Open |
+| Add analyte / multi-constituent reporting to Port 0, or rephrase the node's framing | Decision-gate &mdash; pending |
+| Restore or remove the dangling `monster-dashboard.flow.json` + `monster-api-dashboard.flow.json` references | Internal |

+## Migration notes
+
+### From legacy topic aliases
+
+The pre-canonical topics (`i_start`, `monsternametijden`, `rain_data`, `input_q`, `setMode`, `model_prediction`) are accepted as aliases and emit a one-time deprecation warning. They are scheduled for removal in Phase 7. Update flows to use the canonical names from [Reference &mdash; Contracts](Reference-Contracts#topic-contract):
+
+| Legacy | Canonical |
+|:---|:---|
+| `i_start` | `cmd.start` |
+| `monsternametijden` | `set.schedule` |
+| `rain_data` | `set.rain` |
+| `input_q` | `data.flow` |
+| `setMode` | `set.mode` |
+| `model_prediction` | `set.model-prediction` |
+| `registerChild` | `child.register` |
+
+### Pre-2026-05-11 invalid-bounds silent skip
+
+Before 2026-05-11 `nominalFlowMin` / `flowMax` were not declared in `monster.json`'s `constraints` section. `configUtils` stripped them as unknown keys; bounds collapsed to undefined → NaN → invalid, silently blocking every run. Fixed in the schema; ensure your `monster.json` is at the current commit.
