Summary

  • Ports open_oura's decode_sleep_phases (crates/oura-protocol/src/events.rs:408) code for code into lib/src/oura.dart: a carrier-specific header byte, then 2-bit stage codes packed four to a byte, MSB-first, 30 s epochs in body order.
  • Accepts all three generations of the hypnogram carrier - sleep_phase_information (0x4b), sleep_phase_details (0x4e) and the paged sleep_phase_data (0x5a) - because the codes are the same across carriers and the header is the carrier's business.
  • The ring computes its staging ON THE RING; the enum is the native SleepPhase_OSSAv1 classification handed over the wire, not a derived number. The header byte is passed through UNTOUCHED (on 0x5a it counts pages - interpreting it as an epoch offset lands every stage in the wrong 30-second slot). No epoch timing is invented: a caller wanting seconds derives them from the event's own tsDs and states its assumption.
  • Hardware provenance stated per the package's ground rules: the 2-bit code layout is confirmed against real sleep_phase_data bytes from a Gen 3 Horizon; it has NOT been seen from a Ring 4/5 yet. The 0-100 sleep scores are not on this path (phone-computed).
  • Tests pin the load-bearing expectations: MSB-first order (the one vector open_oura's own Rust tests pin), all three carriers carrying the same codes, header pass-through, and NULL refusal cases (header-only body, non-hypnogram tag).

Verification

  • No Dart SDK available in this environment; validated statically: brace/paren balance on both files, and all test vectors verified against a simulation of the decoder logic.
  • Real captured fixtures in the existing test file left byte-identical.

Note

The hypnogram is the one deliberate exception to this file's NOT-DECODED list, justified in the file header and in the commit message: open_oura's real-capture documentation is the only independent oracle this layout has.

Summary by Sourcery

Decode on-device Oura sleep-stage hypnograms while preserving carrier metadata and ring-provided staging.

New Features:

  • Add decoding support for Oura sleep-stage hypnograms across the information, details, and paged data carriers.
  • Expose ring-classified sleep stages with carrier headers and 30-second epoch ordering.

Enhancements:

  • Document the hypnogram layout and its hardware-verification scope while leaving timing interpretation to callers.

Tests:

  • Add coverage for MSB-first stage unpacking, shared carrier formats, header preservation, and invalid-input refusal.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for decoding sleep-stage data, including deep, light, REM, and awake phases.
    • Sleep-stage data can now be read from three supported event types. The associated header is preserved, and stage codes are decoded in order.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for sleep-stage decoding across supported event types, header handling, and invalid or incomplete data.

Ports open_oura's decode_sleep_phases (crates/oura-protocol/src/events.rs:408)
code for code: a carrier-specific header byte, then 2-bit stage codes packed
four to a byte, MSB-first, 30 s epochs in body order, carried by three
generations of the same event - sleep_phase_information (0x4b),
sleep_phase_details (0x4e) and the paged sleep_phase_data (0x5a, 14-byte
pages of 52 epochs confirmed on a Gen 3 Horizon, fw 3.4.3).

The ring computes its staging ON THE RING - the enum is the native
SleepPhase_OSSAv1 classification handed over the wire, not a number this
package derives. The header byte is passed through UNTOUCHED: on the paged
form it counts pages, and interpreting it as an epoch offset is how every
stage lands in the wrong 30-second slot. No epoch timing is invented - a
caller that wants seconds must derive them from the event's own tsDs and
state what it assumed. The 0-100 sleep scores are NOT on this path; they
are computed on the phone, not the ring.

HARDWARE PROVENANCE: the 2-bit code layout is confirmed against real
sleep_phase_data bytes from a Gen 3 Horizon. It has NOT been seen from a
Ring 4 or Ring 5 yet - those may emit the same codes under another
carrier, which is why the decoder accepts all three carriers rather than
the one Gen 3 was observed using.

hands back the reverse and every 30-second epoch of the night carries its
neighbour's stage), the three carrier tags are all accepted with the same
codes, the paged carrier's header is passed through untouched, and the
NULL group proves the decoder refuses a headerless body and a
non-hypnogram tag rather than always producing something.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Oura decoder now recognizes three sleep-phase event tags. It preserves the carrier header and decodes subsequent bytes as MSB-first two-bit sleep-stage codes. Tests cover tag handling, decoded stages, header passthrough, and invalid inputs.

Changes

Sleep-phase decoding

Layer / File(s) Summary
Sleep-phase decoder and coverage
lib/src/oura.dart, test/oura_test.dart
The decoder supports tags 0x4b, 0x4e, and 0x5a. It preserves the first body byte as the header and maps subsequent two-bit codes to sleep stages. Tests cover all three tags, MSB-first decoding, and rejection of header-only bodies and other tags.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Feature

Suggested reviewers: abdulsaheel

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 397d9

The new sleep-stage decoder appears correct. However, the accompanying tests cannot compile, and one assertion checks the wrong stage positions. The test suite is therefore broken, and the new feature is not protected by tests. Fix both test issues before merging.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to 397d9

The new decoder interprets sleep-stage data but does not add a privileged operation or a new route to stored data. Its behavior is bounded within the protocol library; validation on newer ring generations and downstream use remain unconfirmed.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — A malformed or adversarial event can affect the stage values returned to a caller, but the reviewed decoder does not itself persist, transmit, or act on those values. External consumers are not established by the available evidence.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — The existing parsers reject incomplete frames and events; the decoder additionally restricts accepted tags and requires a header plus at least one code byte. It does not introduce a separate identity or privilege boundary.

### Comment 1
<location path="test/oura_test.dart" line_range="286" />
<code_context>
+    OuraEvent hypnogram(int tag, String bodyHex, {int ds = 9391523}) =>
+        parseOuraEvent(
+            parseOuraFrame(_hex(tag.toRadixString(16).padLeft(2, '0')) +
+                _hex('${(bodyHex.length / 2 + 4).toRadixString(16).padLeft(2, '0')}') +
+                _hex('a34d8f00') +
+                _hex(bodyHex))!)!;
</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**issue (bug_risk):** The test helper calls `toRadixString` on `(bodyHex.length / 2 + 4)`, which is a `double` because Dart `/` always returns `double`; the test file therefore fails to compile.

**Suggested fix:** Use integer division, e.g. `(bodyHex.length ~/ 2 + 4).toRadixString(16)`.

```suggestion
                _hex('${(bodyHex.length ~/ 2 + 4).toRadixString(16).padLeft(2, '0')}') +
```
</issue_to_address>

### Comment 2
<location path="lib/src/oura.dart" line_range="188" />
<code_context>
+/// epochs in body order on every carrier observed. An entry is null for a
+/// code the enum does not name — a future firmware may add one, and an
+/// unnamed stage must stay unnamed rather than be coerced to its nearest
+/// neighbour.
+class OuraSleepPhases {
+  /// The carrier's header byte, meaning carrier-specific and NOT interpreted.
</code_context>
<issue_to_address>
**nitpick:** The `phases` documentation says entries can be null for unnamed codes, but the decoder maps all four possible 2-bit values to an enum, so it can never produce a null entry under the documented 2-bit layout.

**Suggested fix:** Either remove the nullable element type and the unnamed-code claim, or add explicit handling for an encoding that can represent unknown stages.

Sourcery's review of the hypnogram PR found the doc claiming an entry can
be null for a code the enum does not name, while the decoder maps all
four 2-bit values and can never produce null under the documented layout.
The honest state is stated instead: no entry is null on the carriers
observed so far, and the element type stays nullable only because a
future firmware may widen the code space.

Both reviewers found the hypnogram helper computing the frame length with
`/`, which in Dart is double division - `(bodyHex.length / 2 + 4)` is a
double, and double has no toRadixString(int radix), so the new test group
did not compile. `~/` it is. CodeRabbit additionally found the paged-carrier
test asserting REM and awake at the wrong indices (6 and 10 instead of 7
and 11): each body byte contributes four entries, and for body bytes
01 02 03 00 the rem sits at index 7 and the awake at index 11. Fixed, and
the expectations re-verified against a simulation of the unpacking.
