# Return only the requested number of frames

A caller requests a fixed number of synthetic PGM frames; the provider exposes neither a full camera API nor an unlimited stream.

## The problem

Remote media access often exposes a whole device API or a long-lived uncontrolled stream.

## What gets published

Expose one finite media operation with explicit frame and byte bounds.

## What stays local

Frame generation implementation, provider process state, and machine access.

## Business data crossing the call boundary

Requested frame count and finite typed media frames.

## What this shows

A future agent adapter can request device output like an ordinary function while keeping the same input and result limits.

## What it doesn't prove

The fixture generates synthetic PGM bytes; it does not open a camera or prove pairing, real-device access, zero-copy transfer, or bandwidth performance.

## Public source evidence for this case

Evidence level

Source layout and declarations are anonymously inspectable

Public inspection

Expected check

Required files, Python syntax, and @node.register declaration are checked without installing dependencies

## Run in a compatible source workspace

This Provider/Client walkthrough requires compatible EasyRemote, EasyNet-Cli, and EasyNet-Axon sibling source checkouts, a compatible Hub, and a paired, running Runtime. The source is public; clean installation from public packages is not yet verified. Technical Alpha offers guided setup. Use the pinned EasyRemote revision below; this page does not pin the other components. Runtime admission still determines whether the caller may execute the function.

```
# From EasyRemote revision 44c768ca26d0f92a5ab9d1d03342895c29c27dc6
cd gallery/projects/06_runtime_device_capability_injection
# Terminal 1
uv sync --frozen
uv run python node.py

# Terminal 2 (same project)
uv run python client.py

[Connect your own function](https://easynet.run/docs/connect/function)

Read the setup first. You need compatible sibling source checkouts, a compatible Hub, and a paired, running Runtime. Technical Alpha offers guided help; public-package clean installation is not yet verified.
