Colour: each scrollback line carries a ConsoleColor, so meaning picks the colour
rather than the caller's taste. Incoming channel posts, DMs, your own echoed
command, successes, warnings and failures are now distinguishable at a glance.
The palette maps onto the core's UIColor names so the console tracks the rest of
the firmware instead of inventing values.
Banner: an ASCII mark, the node name and build, then the quick menu, in the
login-banner tradition. 19 columns wide so it does not break on the V4's 240 px
panel.
Quick menu: numbered, because typing 1 beats typing 'contacts' and because a
numbered list is how you find out what exists. A bare digit runs the item; it is
checked before everything else so the node CLI cannot shadow it.
The audit (full table in CONSOLE_MODE.md) compared every UI surface against what
the console offered. The node CLI already covers more than expected: advert,
clock, gps, region, get/set, log, neighbors, ota, power, sensor, time, ver. What
it does NOT cover, now added:
chat <name> read a thread (does NOT mark it read)
stat radio + traffic, the Signal page's numbers
batt battery
wifi radio state
discover / discovered the active probe, with BOTH link directions
luaHostBattery and luaHostMeshDiscover were CAP_LUA_SDK_EXT-gated, so the V4 --
the board this exists for -- failed to link. Widened to || CAP_CONSOLE, same as
the send path earlier.
