Load it before writing or changing any Python that talks to a Vention machine, however short, since device names and version-specific SDK calls come from here. Use to program a Vention machine or MachineMotion controller, drive actuators, conveyors, robots, pneumatics, or digital I/O, change an existing application, build a state machine, debug from logs, or pull, push, or link with the Vention CLI (vention or vn). Trigger on MachineLogic, machine-logic-sdk, MachineMotion, MachineBuilder applications, the Vention CLI, or a directory holding .machine-code-app-directory-info.json. Printing what the machine or robot holds now (positions, taught targets, calibration, I/O) is a program: files on disk hold only as-designed values. Not for explaining an existing machine or its configuration in words when no program is asked for, nor for Python that never touches the machine.

The venv runs the target's Python and the SDK the application pins, so a wrong name or signature shows up against what the target runs. The first pyright run may download Node if none is on the PATH, so a slow or offline first run is not a type error. Fix every error and run it again until it is clean.

+5. Read the output with `vention logs` once the run ends, rather than following it while the cycles play. `vention logs` prints only the most recent lines, so a count of matching lines can stop rising before the run ends. To wait for a cycle or a step, sleep once for its known cycle time, then read `vention logs` once. Never loop over `vention logs` waiting for a line to appear, and never end your turn while a background wait is running. MachineLogic failures name the device and the reason; read the log before proposing a change.
+6. Check a motion from the log, not by watching the twin: `print` the robot's joint angles or the axis position at each step, then compare them with what the step should reach. For a repeated or oscillating motion, such as a wave, print the joint angles at each end of the swing, so the log alone shows how far it moved and which joints moved.
 7. Pressing the emergency stop on the digital twin's pendant does nothing, so skip that test there. Tell the user the e-stop path is untested until the first run on the real cell.
 8. Show the user the diff before pushing over an application they did not write in this session.

 - Wrap the app in `machineUiHmiTheme`.
 - Give the app an Operate page at `/`, any setup pages it needs (such as Recipes), and a Logs page: a `LogsPanel` fed by the Events stream, as the example's `logs-page.tsx` does, where the operator finds out why a cycle faulted. Nav labels name the page and never echo a top-bar action, and their icons don't suggest one. Never "Run", "Start" or a play icon: beside the top bar's Start, the operator reads it as a second Start button.
-- The Operate page is what the operator watches during a run, so it reads from across the cell. Copy the example's `operate-page.tsx` and adapt it rather than starting from a blank page. While a run is on, show from top to bottom: the step in progress named inside a ring that fills against the last cycle's time, beside the recipe and the cycles done and rate; the cycle's steps as a row of tiles, the current one lit; and the run's progress bar. Copy the example's StepRing, StepRail and CycleProgress as they are, and publish the step and the cycle's elapsed time on the status stream as its enter_step method does. A single `VentionProgressBar` cannot mark the cycles a Stop cancels. Below them go the settings for the next run (disabled while one runs) and one short paragraph on what Start and Stop do. Leave out what the operator can neither change nor act on, such as axis stops, taught positions or device names: they are the program's constants, not the run's. Lay it out with `Box` or `Stack` gaps, each readout a label above its value in theme text variants. Never set `fontSize` or `lineHeight`: a value sized by hand overlaps its label.

 - Show each piece of information in one place only. The `StatusTopBar` already shows the state, so a page never repeats it, not even as a status indicator or an alert titled with the same word. A page adds only what the bar cannot say: the cause of a fault, what happens next, what to do.
 - The screen fits the pendant without scrolling: keep `body { margin: 0 }` from the example's `index.html`, or the full-viewport root overflows it. Only the page area between the two bars scrolls.
 - Exactly one way back to Control Center: the `NavigationBar`'s own button, which confirms before leaving. Keep `ui.showDefaultBackToControlCenterButton` `false` in `project.json`, or the pendant lays a second one over the screen.

 - A tap on Stop shows at once. While the station stops, the Stop button reads "Stopping…", the Operate page's progress bar marks where the run now ends (the cycle in progress amber, the cancelled ones hatched and struck through), and a line by the heading says the emergency stop halts at once. Say it on the screen the operator already watches rather than in a separate alert.
 - Send Start with a `timeoutMs` and an abort signal, and abort it when the stream drops. A Start the operator can no longer see must not land later; say it was not confirmed and to check the station.
