Load before copy_asset_file for fonts or when main.py loads widget fonts.
Use availableWidgetFonts from host/workspace metadata: each entry has file (basename) and glyphWidth / glyphHeight (nominal glyph size in pixels; from the WxH in names like 10x20.pil, or manifest bounds for fonts without that pattern).
read_file on font_manifest.json or repo paths outside the widget workspace.file basename from the catalog (no invented *-541a345d suffixes in code paths).copy_asset_file → ./fonts/ in the widget directory (tool strips trailing -<8 hex> from filenames)..pil and matching .pbm when both exist in the catalog.Path(__file__).parent / "fonts" in main.py.from pathlib import Path
from PIL import ImageFont
FONT_DIR = Path(__file__).parent / "fonts"
def load_widget_font(name: str, size: int | None = None):
font_path = FONT_DIR / name
if font_path.suffix.lower() == ".pil":
return ImageFont.load(str(font_path))
if size is None:
size = 12
return ImageFont.truetype(str(font_path), size)
If a font is missing from the catalog, pick the closest size match and note it briefly in the final reply.
