Counter / hardware side / Operator-side prototype

Bell or light alert

A local box can ring, beep, or flash when a new order or hardware problem needs attention.

For a pizzeria

Lets the hardware give an audible or visible cue without turning the alert layer into the actual order queue.

Where it fits

What the shop uses behind the counter

These are the restaurant-side tools for menu control, kitchen flow, stock, printing, and fallback alerts.

This page is the readable P4P explanation for one module. It is meant to be understandable before you open the raw manifest.

What it touches

Order summary, configured alert target, and urgency state.

What it does not own

It does not accept orders, replace the kitchen queue, or settle payment.

Current state

Operator-side prototype

builtin operator self-test lane when enabled and configured

Current declared data-access summary: Order summary and configured alert target.

Read next

Do not stop at one module page.

See the main kitchen flow first

A bell or light alert only helps because there is still a real kitchen queue behind it.

Then compare it to the print lane

This alert lane becomes more concrete when you read it next to the primary print/POS handoff.

Keep the phone fallback nearby

If a local bell or light path disappears, the next useful fallback is a phone notification lane.

If you need the developer-facing version, open the GitHub module reference or the raw manifest. The public P4P page stays focused on what the module means operationally.
