With both legs of the viewer signalling path on Redis (PR1: command
bus, PR2: reply bus), the pyzmq runtime dependency and the libzmq*
build deps are no longer used.
- pyproject.toml: remove pyzmq==23.2.1 from server, viewer,
wifi-connect, and mypy dep groups (4 places).
- uv.lock: regenerated; pyzmq + transitive py drop out.
- tools/image_builder/{__main__,utils}.py: remove libzmq3-dev /
libzmq5-dev / libzmq5 from the base apt list and from the viewer
context's apt list. docker/uv-builder.j2 likewise drops libzmq3-dev
from both the prebuilt-uv branch and the pip-fallback branch (32-bit
ARM). The rendered docker/Dockerfile.* artifacts are gitignored, so
no committed Dockerfile churn here — they regenerate cleanly via
`python -m tools.image_builder --dockerfiles-only`.
- send_zmq_message.py → send_viewer_message.py. The script already
publishes via Redis (fixed in the PR1 follow-up); rename + update
callers (bin/start_wifi_connect.sh, docker/Dockerfile.wifi-connect.j2)
now that the ZMQ name is misleading.
- bin/start_server.sh: drop the stale "single-worker because
ZmqPublisher binds 10001" comment. The publisher is now a Redis
client — no port bind, multi-worker is safe whenever the operator
wants to opt in (not changed in this PR).
- CLAUDE.md: update the architecture description (ZMQ ports 10001 /
5558 are gone, Redis carries the viewer signalling traffic now).
