Start the Windows client in under a second: precompile the publish, and take the cache off the UI thread
Measured on a self-contained win-x64 publish, warm disk, median of six launches from process start: the main window idle on its first screen went from 2.56 s to about 0.9 s, and the splash from 735 ms to about 430 ms. Two causes, and they were most of it. ◆ THE JIT. Every launch compiled Avalonia, the XAML, EF Core's model building and our own code method by method before anything reached the screen. The runtime pack ships precompiled; nothing else did. The head now sets PublishReadyToRun on a win-* publish, which alone took the main window to 1.4 s. It costs size — the publish grows from 146 MB to 175 MB, the Setup executable from 70 MB to 89 MB — and is conditioned on the RID so build, run and the tests are untouched. Cross-compiling it on Linux works: reproduced CI's win-x64 publish in the Alpine SDK container, and vpk pack accepts the result. ◆ THE MIGRATION RAN INLINE. EF Core's async methods over SQLite complete synchronously, so StartAsync's awaited migration and profile read ran inside Compose's dispatcher turn: a quarter to half a second during which the window could not be built. They now run on the thread pool, and the desktop head calls StartAsync before building the window rather than after, so the two overlap. The Android head already called it first and gets the thread-pool half for free. The window can now appear a few tens of milliseconds before the profile is read, which shows the existing "Opening the local cache…" card briefly — the state the splash was always meant to hand over to, and one that until now was never on screen at all. macOS and Linux would very likely gain the same from ReadyToRun; they are left out only because nothing here has timed them.

Spelunk sign-in: end it with a refused DodoSSH resume, keep the token the check rotated, and send the token by the sign-in's own address
A DodoSSH resume the provider refuses now signs the device out of every Spelunk as well, as the check before a Spelunk connection already did, so the README's "an account the provider no longer signs in is signed out of DodoSSH and of every Spelunk" holds whichever finds it first. The forced refresh that check makes is written down at once rather than at the next sync pass, so a crash in between cannot cost a browser sign-in on the next launch. The tunnel is opened at the sign-in's own address rather than the route's: the same string, but the token going where it came from is now said where it is sent. Relaunches in the shell tests use the scripted Spelunk sign-in too, so none can open a browser or send a sign-out anywhere real. Fixes a doc comment the account-refused handler had split, a README line still pointing at the key picker, and the Android composition's comment on which redirect Spelunk allows.

Spelunk: sign each device in through the browser instead of keeping Spelunk API keys in the vault
A Spelunk API key reaches one organisation, so a server elsewhere - oc-linux in Orange Climate - was refused before it reached the agent. Each device now signs in to a Spelunk once, under Settings -> Security -> Spelunk or from a Spelunk host's editor: the OAuth authorization code flow with PKCE for a native app (RFC 8252), with Spelunk as the authorization server. The browser opens Spelunk's /api/app-sign-in/authorize with a loopback redirect (the app's own scheme on Android), the person signs in there however they normally do and allows "DodoSSH on <device>", and the code is redeemed at /api/app-sign-in/token for an app session token. That token opens terminals in every organisation its person is in, with the role they have on each server at the time; tunnel tickets send no organisation. The sign-in stays on the device: sealed in the local cache under the LocalCacheKey (AAD resource type 18, bound to its row), never synced, wiped with the cache, and only ever sent to the Spelunk it came from. A 401 from Spelunk forgets it; SIGN OUT ends it there and here, and so does signing out of DodoSSH. Before every Spelunk connection DodoSSH asks its own identity provider whether its sign-in still stands (a forced refresh, at most once a minute), and an account it refuses is signed out of DodoSSH and of every Spelunk on the device. A route names no key any more: Spelunk hosts are written at host schema 11, which an older build shows read-only and asks to be updated for, and a payload that still names a key credential decodes with the id skipped. The SpelunkKey item type is gone: SyncEntityType 14, ChangeEntityType 14 and AAD type 17 are retired, the server drops spelunk_key and its change-log rows, and the client cache drops its cached items, outbox entries and conflicts of that type. A link still never starts a sign-in: from a Spelunk this device is not signed in to it opens the editor, which offers to. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Connections: drop the manual box's view-model state now that both heads ask through the prompt
The phone's Connections screen no longer draws the user@host + password box, and the desktop never did, so nothing bound VaultViewModel.ManualTarget, ManualPassword, ManualStatus or ConnectManuallyCommand any more, nor MainWindowViewModel.ConnectToRecentCommand, whose address branch wrote into that box. They are gone, and so is VaultViewModel.AskAboutHost, whose one caller was ConnectToRecent. TryParseManualTarget, ManualEndpoint and ConnectToEndpointAsync stay: the prompt, the desktop's Ctrl+K palette and the phone's hosts search all use them. The reasoning the removed members carried moved onto ConnectToEndpointAsync and ChoosePromptRecentAsync. The tests whose subject is still live now go through the prompt instead of the box: a typed address dialled exactly as typed, port 22 by default, the refusal sentences, the host-key retry replaying the attempt that raised it, the host-key card staying over the surface it was typed on, the session facts for a typed password, and no forwards for a typed address. The recent-row cases now drive ChoosePromptRecentCommand. Two cases existing prompt tests already covered were deleted. Manual check 11.8 now describes recent rows landing on the prompt. |

Terminal: ask what to connect to when Terminal is pressed with nothing open
The terminal surface with no session used to be an empty frame, with the tab row's "+" the only thing on it that did anything. It now holds a prompt, in the order ssh asks: "connect to:" takes a saved host's name, matched exactly, with the hosts that match so far listed under it for Tab or a click, or user@host[:port] for a machine that is not saved. A password line follows only when one is needed, worded as ssh words it. Escape steps back a line; recent connections are listed below. It is drawn by Avalonia in the WebView's rectangle, which the occlusion rule allows because the two are exclusive: the prompt shows only while there are no tabs, the WebView only for a tab with a session. Saved hosts connect through a new VaultViewModel.ConnectToHostAsync, which the drawer's own connect now goes through too, so every refusal is still made once. Each attempt now carries whether it may act on the drawer's remember-password tick, and the prompt's may not: otherwise a tick left on in a closed drawer would save a password typed at a prompt that never offered to keep anything. Covered by nine ShellFlowTests cases and four ConnectPromptTests; manual check 7.10b. |

Quick connect: type user@host into Ctrl+K to open a terminal on a machine without saving it
The desktop had no way to reach a machine that was not in the keychain; the phone has had a manual box on its terminal screen all along. The palette's query now reads as an address when it has an @ in it: a "not saved" row offers to dial it, Enter asks for the password in place, and a second Enter connects. Escape on the password step goes back to the address. It goes through the phone's own path, now split out as VaultViewModel.ConnectToEndpointAsync, so the tab, the host-key question and the connection-log entry are the same on both heads and nothing is written to the keychain. Password only, as on the phone: a key is the reason to save the host. The typed row takes the highlight unless a saved host dials exactly that address, so typing a new address cannot land on a saved machine whose address merely starts the same way. Covered by eleven new QuickConnectTests; manual check 7.10a covers the real dial. |

Android: the redesign — a Vaults tab with hosts, keychain and snippets, card lists, a keychain that can add, and files that act on what is chosen
The bottom bar is Vaults · Connections · Settings, drawn as Material 3 pills with icons from the embedded Material font and a count of open sessions on Connections, which replaces the strip of shells above the bar. Vaults is the open vault: its header carries the name as a switch to the vaults screen, the sync light and a lock icon, and a Hosts · Keychain · Snippets segmented control sits under it. The keychain and snippets move there from Settings (IsVaultSurface lights the tab; IsMoreSurface no longer lists them), and back from either goes to the hosts. Settings becomes an account card and grouped sections: security, vaults and history, files, this app. Host rows are cards with a terminal tile and the live dot on its corner. The connect sheet names the host and its address, labels its box, focuses it as it opens, reveals the password on request, and puts CANCEL left and CONNECT right; every two-button row on the head now confirms on the right. While a hosts-screen sheet is up the header and bar are dimmed too and a tap on them lowers it, and the bar stands down while the software keyboard is up. The keychain gains a floating + and a sheet of the desktop's five adds (generate a key, paste a key, a password, a bucket, a tag) over the editors VaultViewModel already had, drawn as a full-screen page with labels above the boxes; a chosen item gets EDIT and COPY PUBLIC KEY beside MOVE and DELETE. Snippets get a floating + and cards that say RUNS or INSERTS. Files trade the seven-button block for a selection bar (save, and a ⋮ sheet with rename, move, permissions and a red delete), folder and file tiles, an upload button, and header actions for a terminal on the same host, refresh and close; a terminal's + sheet opens SFTP on that terminal's own host. The theme takes the audit's visual findings: Fluent's ClipToBounds is cleared on glowing buttons so the glow is no longer cut to a square (the desktop's Button.accent too), prose is Montserrat with mono kept for addresses and code, disabled secondary buttons are quieter than enabled ones, Fluent's dropdown, checkbox, switch, focus and selection brushes come from the palette, touch no longer leaves hover fills behind, and lists, nav entries and icon buttons carry names for TalkBack. Builds clean; checked on the emulator end to end: unlock, the three vault views, adding and deleting a password, connecting through the new sheet, files on the terminal's host with the selection bar and its sheet. App tests 727 of 733 pass with 5 skipped; the one failure, TheCountsAPhoneShows_ FollowEveryForwardsState, passes three runs of three alone and is untouched here. Layout tests pass. |

Android: a customisable key bar, a quick-access keyboard, a long-press cursor gesture, and a side panel on tablets
The key bar above the software keyboard is now the user's own: which keys, in what order, up to sixteen in two rows that never scroll. Ctrl and Alt latch across the bar and the phone's keyboard, and Ctrl or Alt with a cursor key sends the modified CSI form. Seven predefined groups (essentials, cursor, control, symbols, tmux, vim, function) and keys of one's own, written in \e / ^C notation, are arranged on a customise sheet that saves as it goes. A grid button swaps the software keyboard for a quick-access keyboard of the same height, with KEYS, SNIPPETS, HISTORY and APPEARANCE tabs; it reopens to the tab last used. Snippets go through the shell's existing InsertSnippet. History keeps a typed command only once the remote has echoed it, so nothing typed at a password prompt is ever recorded; it is memory-only and LOCK clears it. Each session pump now keeps its last kilobyte of output and the alternate-screen state for that test (OutputTail). Long-press and drag on the terminal sends arrow keys, as a joystick with three speeds by distance; scrolling is unchanged and there is no mode switch. It takes the touch before Chromium's own long press, so a held finger no longer pastes; paste is on the bar by default instead. A switch in APPEARANCE turns the gesture off. The text-size buttons moved from the bar to APPEARANCE. On wide screens the same tabs open as a side panel beside the terminal, toggled from the top bar, with the bar's own keys repeated at the top of KEYS while the bar stands down. The model, gesture arithmetic, echo reading and history are in DodoSSH.Client.Shell and covered by TerminalKeyboardTests and OutputTailTests. Builds clean; not yet exercised on a device, because the emulator's install is locked behind a passphrase that was not recorded. |

Desktop: show the right vault's people, leave settings on lock, say when an import fell short, and stop host names being cut to four letters
- Choosing a vault while the screen was busy went through a gate that did nothing, so the members
panel kept showing the previous vault's people under the new name. The read now starts regardless;
the selection generation discards answers for an earlier choice.
- Locking or signing out from Settings left the window in settings mode under the lock card, with no
title bar to drag, minimise or close, and unlock returned to Settings. Leaving the unlocked state
leaves Settings and closes the members panel; Escape closes that panel before leaving Settings.
- Both importers reported success when the keychain was busy and skipped the batch, or failed partway.
ImportOutcome now carries refused hosts and why a batch stopped, and the screens say so.
- Host cards: the sync badge took 70 of 214 pixels from the name ("bastion" drew as "bast…", two k8s
workers both as "k8s…"); it now sits on the address line. Tag chips wrap and trim inside the card.
Keychain names trim inside their column instead of printing over TYPE, and the Security page's
caption wraps inside its card.

Merge origin/main into claude/spelunk-tunnel
Port forwarding took host schema version 8 first, so the Spelunk route moves to 9 and is written after the forwards. A host may carry both. |

Reach a Spelunk-managed server through Spelunk, and open one from a Spelunk link
A server Spelunk manages runs Spelunk's agent, which keeps a connection open
to Spelunk. A host can now be marked "Connect through Spelunk": a connect
asks Spelunk for a ticket, opens a WebSocket, and the agent connects to the
SSH server on the machine's own loopback, so the server needs no open SSH
port. Shells and file transfers both go this way.
Client, in Client.Session:
- SpelunkTunnel implements Spelunk's contract: POST
{api}/api/servers/{id}/tunnel-tickets with the API key as a bearer token
and {"port":N}, then a WebSocket to the API's own origin at the path
Spelunk returns, offering spelunk.tunnel.v1 and ticket.<ticket>. After the
upgrade the relay's RelayBridge carries the bytes unchanged. Every refusal
is a sentence: 401 key, 403 role (with Spelunk's detail), 404 server, 503
agent not connected, 401/503 on the upgrade, and close codes 4502 (agent
could not reach the port, or is too old: "Unknown stream kind") and 4503
(agent disconnected). Only a path is taken from the ticket response, so it
cannot send the ticket to another host.
- IConnectionRoute is what RelayRoute and SpelunkTunnelRoute have in common,
so the connect path has one shape for both.
Host model: HostSecret.Spelunk is a SpelunkRoute (normalised API base,
server id, and the id of the credential holding the API key), at payload
schema version 8. It is written last and only when present, so every other
host keeps its bytes and its version; an older build reads a Spelunk host
as read-only rather than dropping the route. A half-written route makes the
item unreadable instead of dialled. It merges as one value and is exclusive
with RelayEnabled. The API address must be https, or http to loopback.
The API key is an ordinary keychain credential whose password is the key,
referenced by id, so it is encrypted, synced, merged and rotated like every
other secret, one credential serves every server in the organisation, and
the used-by list and deletion warning count it.
Routing: OpenRouteAsync is the one decision for both transports. A Spelunk
host is never dialled directly, never probed after a failure, and a route
that hung up with a reason replaces SSH.NET's transport error.
UI: a "Connect through Spelunk" card beside the relay card in the desktop
drawer and the phone's editor; ticking one unticks the other.
dodossh://spelunk/connect?api=&server=&name=&host= links:
- SpelunkLink parses them strictly and never reads a credential from one.
- Program reads a link from the arguments; a launch that finds DodoSSH
running passes it down the doorbell as "dodossh.open-link <link>", which
the running instance parses again, bounded, and otherwise ignores whole.
The plain come-forward ring is unchanged.
- A saved host routed to that server on that Spelunk is connected to;
otherwise the editor opens on a new, unsaved Spelunk host, with the key
pre-chosen only when another host already sends it to that Spelunk. A link
that arrives while locked waits for the unlock.
- Windows registers the scheme under HKCU from Velopack's install and update
hooks and removes it on uninstall only if it still points at this
executable; the macOS plist template declares CFBundleURLTypes and the app
takes the URL from Avalonia's activation event; the Linux desktop entry
gets %u and MimeType=x-scheme-handler/dodossh.

Start port forwards on the phone, listed in a sheet off its terminal
The Android head skipped a host's forwards because it had nowhere to show what was listening. Its terminal bar now draws a ⇄ for a tab that has forwards, carrying the listening count in green and turning the danger colour when one failed, and it raises a sheet over the same rows the desktop sidebar lists: notation, route, state, failure reason and a tap to switch each off or on. MainWindowViewModel.StartForwards no longer returns early on Android. The sheet is shell state like the connect sheet: it collapses the renderer while up, is lowered by leaving the terminal, and the back gesture closes it first. Forwards ride the shell's keep-alive rather than holding the foreground service themselves, since a forward cannot outlive its shell. They only change the notification, which now counts ports forwarded beside shells connected, fed by a new ForwardsChanged event and ListeningForwardCount. The phone still has no editor for forwards; the More screen card, README and design-import-gaps now say they run here and are edited on the desktop. |

Add port forwarding: local, remote and dynamic, per terminal session
A host can now carry port forwards (-L, -R, -D), saved inside its encrypted payload as RelayTicketRequest.PortForwardId already assumed, so they sync and merge per forward like tags and pinned paths. The host schema moves to version 8 only for hosts that carry forwards. ISshConnection gains StartForwardAsync over SSH.NET's forwarded ports. Every listener binds loopback and there is no bind-address field: a forward is something any member of a shared keychain can edit. A remote forward's target is resolved here, IPv4 first, rather than by SSH.NET's constructor, which takes the first DNS answer and can send ::1. Forwards start with every terminal opened to the host and stop with its connection; a reconnect starts them again. The session sidebar lists them with state, failure reason and an on/off switch, the status bar counts the listening ones, and the host editor and detail pane gain a PORT FORWARDS section. A forward that cannot start fails alone. The phone does not start forwards yet: it has no surface showing what is listening, and its More screen now says so. No byte counts, since SSH.NET keeps none. |

Stop a reconnect dialling a different machine of the same name
A tab remembered what its host was called and nothing else, and the reconnect under a stopped tab looked the host up by that name: HostFor took the first row in the keychain whose label matched. Nothing in this application stops two hosts being called the same thing — a team's vault beside a personal one makes it ordinary, and "prod-db" is what the database server gets called in both — so the button dialled whichever namesake sat earliest in the list. A dropped session on one machine came back as a live shell on another, with the tab, the address and the status bar all still naming the first. There was nothing on screen to read the substitution off. The name match was not an oversight; it was an argument, written into the remark on HostFor and repeated on RefreshConnectedHosts: a tab outlives the vault that opened it, so it "cannot hold an entity id that would still mean anything after a lock". That is not so. EntityId is the item's own sync identity rather than a reference to a row object, so a vault that is locked and opened again rebuilds every row around the same ids. The one handle that was rejected as too fragile to survive a lock is the handle that survives it. So the id now travels with the connection. ConnectionAttemptEventArgs and TerminalSessionEventArgs carry it, taken from ConnectionTarget.HostId, which the connect path has had all along for the log; TerminalTabViewModel keeps it; and HostFor matches on it. A host renamed since the tab opened is found too, which a name match by definition cannot. Null is not missing data — it is the whole of what makes a typed-in address different, and it is why such a tab is refused a reconnect rather than offered one that would dial a stranger sharing its name. Three other lookups had grown their own copy of the same match and so had the same fault, where it is read rather than dialled: the green connected dot, which lit on every machine answering to the name and claimed a shell on hosts nobody had connected to; the pinned paths QUICK ACCESS offers, which come from whichever row that same match found; and the sidebar's "Pin folder" and the SFTP tab row, which would have edited and browsed the wrong host. All four now go through HostFor, so "which machine is this tab" has one answer. Both new tests assert on the address actually dialled rather than on anything the tab says about itself. The two rows agree on every string a tab carries, which is exactly why this went unnoticed: a test written against the label would have passed on the day the wrong machine was being opened. |

Find out why a connection did not reach, instead of only saying it timed out
Measured against SSH.NET 2026.0.0 before anything was written, because the
premise needed checking. Four ways of failing to reach a host, and what this
client puts in front of the user for each:
server accepts TCP, never sends a banner -> "Connection has timed out."
packets black-holed, nothing comes back -> "Connection has timed out."
nothing listening on the port -> "...actively refused it."
name does not resolve -> "No such host is known."
The first two are the same five words and are not the same problem. One is a
network, a firewall or a wrong address; the other is a machine that is up and
well and an sshd that is wedged, or a port that is not SSH at all. Nothing in
the exception tells them apart, and that sentence was the whole of what this
product could say about the failure people hit most.
◆ A SOCKET ANSWERS IT, IN ABOUT AS LONG AS IT TAKES TO OPEN ONE.
SshReachabilityProbe resolves the name and opens a bare TCP connection, and the
four answers it can come back with are the four somebody would do something
different about — unresolved, refused, silent, open. Every one of them is what
a socket actually did, measured at the moment it was asked, rather than
anything inferred from the exception that started it.
Deliberately nothing else. No ping: ICMP is filtered on most of the networks
this is pointed at, so an unanswered one would be evidence of nothing. No scan
of neighbouring ports — the question is what happened to the connection the
user asked for, and probing ports nobody asked about is how a client gets
flagged by an intrusion detector on the very network somebody is trying to
work on. No second SSH handshake against a server that has already failed one.
The budget is six seconds and the floor under it is not a guess: a refusal is
not immediate on Windows, and a closed loopback port took ~2s to answer when
this was measured, because the stack retries the SYN first. At two seconds the
probe calls a machine that is up and refusing a firewall. The test for that
case runs at the real budget on purpose, so lowering the number fails it.
◆ ONLY WHILE REACHING, AND THE WINDOW IS CLOSED AT BOTH ENDS.
Past SshConnectionPhase.Reaching the machine has offered a host key, so it has
demonstrably been reached and a refused password is not a reachability
question. Before it, nothing has been dialled at all — a private key that will
not parse throws out of BuildConnectionInfo before the factory reports
anything — and probing there finds a healthy port and appends "the SSH
handshake is what did not finish" to a message about an unreadable key. That
is a confident wrong answer replacing an accurate one, so both ends are shut.
PhaseReporter keeps the furthest phase to decide it.
The finding is added to what SSH.NET said rather than replacing it: the
exception is the fact, and this is a reading of a second measurement.
Every shell in ShellFlowTests now gets a scripted probe. Without one a failed
connection in any test in that file would do a live DNS lookup for db.internal
and open a real socket — slow, network-dependent, and worse than either, since
db.internal resolves on any machine whose resolver has a search domain that
makes it, which would make the asserted sentence depend on whose network the
suite ran from.
◆ WHAT THIS DOES NOT FIX, FOUND WHILE READING THE SAME PATH.
- SshConnectionRequest.ConnectTimeout is documented, plumbed, and passed by
nothing. Every connection this client makes is hard-wired to the 15-second
default, and there is no per-host field and no setting that can change it.
Fifteen seconds bounds the handshake waits as well as the connect — a
server that accepts TCP and never sends a banner fails at exactly the
timeout, measured — where OpenSSH's own ConnectTimeout covers only the
connect. If timeouts are frequent on slow links, this is the first
suspect, and it needs a product decision rather than a patch.
- The known-host lookup in HostKeyGate.OnHostKeyReceived blocks SSH.NET's
message thread inside that same 15-second budget. The blocking is
acknowledged in the code; that it competes with the key exchange's own
timeout is not. On a cold or locked vault a slow read would surface as a
connection timeout, which is exactly the symptom above.
- ConnectThroughHostKeyGateAsync never unsubscribes HostKeyReceived on
success, so the gate outlives the handshake holding the connect-time
CancellationToken. If SSH.NET raises that event again on rekey it would
re-enter the blocking store read with a token whose source is long gone.
Not verified either way — it needs a real sshd and a forced rekey.

Import a Hetzner Cloud project's servers, and forget the token that read it
An estate on Hetzner is already described somewhere: the project lists every server, its addresses, its plan and where it runs. Getting that into a keychain meant copying forty addresses out of a browser by hand, which is the same work the ssh_config importer exists to remove for the machines described in a file. ◆ A WIZARD RATHER THAN A SCREEN, AND THE DIFFERENCE IS WHAT EACH STEP COSTS. ImportScreen reads a file that is already on this machine, so it scans on open and shows a list. This cannot: it needs a credential that has to be made in another company's console first, and then it makes a request over the internet. Those are two moments rather than one, and a screen that mixed the token box in with the list would ask for the credential again every time somebody came back to look at the list. So three steps — token, choose, done — and the first two write nothing. Step two carries one address choice, one login user and one port for the whole import, because an estate is reached the same way throughout and a per-server dropdown would be forty answers to one question. ◆ THE TOKEN IS USED ONCE AND CLEARED, INCLUDING WHEN IT WORKED. The half worth stating is the success path. Clearing only on failure would leave a credential capable of listing somebody's whole estate sitting in a text box for as long as they spend reading forty rows, which is the longest anybody stands on this screen. Nothing writes it to the vault, to settings or to a log, and reopening the wizard restarts at step one rather than resuming — a resumed step two would be a list nothing on screen has the means to refresh, going on looking current for as long as the application stays open. Read is the only permission it needs and the note above the box says so: a Read & Write token would work identically here and would be a credential capable of deleting the estate, pasted in for no gain. The note also says a token belongs to one project — there is no API call that will say which, and none that lists the others — so an account with four projects runs this four times. Without that sentence the wizard looks like it lost most of the estate. ◆ THE ADDRESS IS A CHOICE, AND TWO OF THE THREE FALL BACK WHERE THE THIRD MUST NOT. Public IPv4 and public IPv6 fall back to each other: the same machine over the same internet, so the worst case is a route nobody picked, and the row says which. Private does not fall back at all. A server on no private network is simply not importable under that choice — its tickbox is disabled, and neither direction of the header's tick-all can reach it — because falling back would put an address on the open internet into a bookmark that was asked to stay off it. IPv6 needs saying twice over. Hetzner routes a whole /64 and the API reports the network, which nothing can dial; the address a stock image answers on is the first one in it. That is a convention of Hetzner's own images rather than a fact the API stated, so every use of it carries a warning on the row and in the stored note, and it is computed by setting the low byte rather than by string surgery on the prefix. It is not an edge case either — IPv4 is billed separately now and a project built since then can be entirely IPv6-only. ◆ NOTHING IMPORTED HERE AUTHENTICATES, AND THAT IS SAID BEFORE THE BUTTON. Hetzner has never held the private half of an SSH key. The API will name a project's keys and hand over their public halves; there is no private half to bring. So every host arrives bound to nothing and asks for a password until somebody points it at a key already in the keychain — the same shape an ssh_config import has with its key tick off, and stated above the button on the same reasoning: somebody who is not told will conclude the import was broken. What the note keeps is what does not go stale — the id, the plan, the location, the image, the labels. The power state is a column and never a note: "running" about a machine somebody switched off last March is worse than no note. ◆ WHERE IT LIVES: TWO FLAGS OVER ONE CONTENT COLUMN. Drawn over the Preferences page inside settings mode exactly as ImportScreen is, with SettingsNav unmoved and the titlebar offering "Back to preferences". IsHetznerImportOpen is a second flag rather than a "which importer" enum, because they are two independent facts about the content column and a single value would need a "neither" member IsImportOpen already expresses; what keeps them from both being true is that every path that opens one closes the other. The titlebar and the Preferences page ask IsImporterOpen, which is written against both. Preferences grows a second importer row beside the first rather than one row that asks "from where?", which would put a question in front of the far more common answer. ◆ WHAT IS NOT HERE. Hetzner's Robot — dedicated servers and Storage Boxes — is a different API behind a different credential, and nothing in this touches it. Said on the Preferences row and on the token step rather than left to be discovered by an account that has both. And there is no phone layout. This one would work on Android, unlike the ssh_config importer beside it: it is a token and a network request, the view model is shared already, and scoped storage has nothing to do with it. What is missing is a screen — the desktop draws a five-column table, and the phone version of that is a different layout rather than the same one narrower. Recorded in android-port.md and on the phone's own Preferences screen, because the note there previously read as though no import of any kind could work. ◆ TESTS, AND WHAT IS LEFT FOR A PERSON. HetznerCloudClientTests is 16 cases over the shapes the API actually returns, against a stubbed HttpMessageHandler: paging followed, the token in a header and never a query string, a refused token distinguished from a fault at Hetzner's end, a token with a line break refused before anything is sent, the /64, the private-network asymmetry, and a server the API described without a name. ShellFlowTests.Hetzner.cs is 11 more against this fixture's real vault, real cache and real server — split into a file of its own, as FakeVaultServer keeps its team endpoints. What they establish beyond the reader's own suite is the half it cannot reach: that reading stores nothing, that importing goes through the ordinary create-and-push path and lands on the server with nothing pressing Sync, that a server the keychain already has arrives unticked, and that the token does not outlive the request. Two layout cases measure both steps against the same content budget every other settings page gets, which is also what proves the markup binds to names that exist. Manual checks 2.11a–2.11d are what no test in this repository can do, because there is no account, no token and no network in the ordinary suite: a real project listed against the real console, a wrong token, the private choice, and what an imported host does when you connect to it.

Make the terminal's right button copy and paste, and never open a menu
Selecting output and right-clicking it opened the WebView's own context menu with Copy on it, which is correct behaviour for a web page and wrong for a terminal. What a terminal's right button has meant since the Windows console got QuickEdit, and since PuTTY shipped, is this: with something selected it copies and drops the selection, with nothing selected it pastes. No menu, no second click. The gesture can only live in the page. The selection is drawn into a canvas the host never sees, and once a terminal has focus the host's window receives no input events at all — the same reason the Ctrl+plus chords are handled there. ◆ THE CLIPBOARD IS THE HOST'S IN BOTH DIRECTIONS, AND THE READING IS WHY. navigator.clipboard.readText() is gated behind the clipboard-read permission in every Chromium, and an embedded WebView with no PermissionRequested handler answers a permission request by putting a prompt on the screen. Trading a context menu for a permission dialog is not this change. So the page asks and the host answers, exactly as requestFontSizeStep does. Writing does not go the other way either, although navigator.clipboard.writeText would have worked from the page on Windows: a clipboard that is the host's in one direction and the page's in the other is two mechanisms to keep working across WebView2, WebKitGTK and Android's WebView. The host has owned a clipboard delegate since the keychain grew its COPY buttons, so each App.axaml.cs grows a ClipboardReader beside its ClipboardWriter and MainWindowViewModel takes it. Three opcodes: client ClipboardCopy and ClipboardPaste, server Clipboard. ◆ Clipboard IS NOT Paste, AND THE DIFFERENCE IS THE BRACKETING. Paste carries a snippet off the sidebar, and the page deliberately *types* a single-line one rather than bracketing it, because bash marks a bracketed paste as an active region and a snippet should read as though it had been typed. A clipboard paste is the case those markers are for — readline uses them to decide it has been pasted into — so Clipboard is always bracketed and never followed by an Enter. One opcode for both would have needed a flag meaning "which of the two kinds of paste is this", on a payload whose existing flag byte means something else. Both client frames are dispatched before the session lookup, which is what keeps the gesture working in a pane whose shell has just ended: squinting at the message a remote left behind is exactly when somebody copies the line. Dispatch was past MA0051's length once it grew a second such branch, so the frames no pump needs to see moved into Announce() and the font-size chord went with them. ◆ CAPTURED AND STOPPED, RATHER THAN MERELY PREVENTED. preventDefault alone suppresses the menu and still lets xterm's own contextmenu handler run, which moves its helper textarea under the pointer at z-index 1000 and leaves the selection sitting in it, selected. Both of those exist to serve the native menu. Taking the event in the capture phase on the pane and stopping it there is what keeps the gesture wholly the page's. rightClickSelectsWord is now false, which on macOS is a change of default rather than a restatement of it: xterm sets it true there alone, so a right-click would have selected the word under the pointer and copied that instead of pasting — wrong on one platform only, which is the worst way for it to be wrong. The renderer harness grows the pane it has been inviting since RendererReconnectionTests: a fake Terminal, the two addons, and a real UTF-8 codec, because both directions run through the page's own TextEncoder and TextDecoder and a Latin-1 stub would pass a test with an em dash in the selection. Its warning about declaring names terminal.js declares now covers the half that does not SyntaxError — a harness frame() was silently replaced by the page's frame() and failed six tests on a type error a long way from the cause. Manual checks 1.11 and 11.13 are what is left for a person: that a real contextmenu event reaches a capture listener, that no native menu is drawn once it is prevented, and that xterm's real paste() brackets. 11.13 also records what is unverified — whether Android's WebView delivers a pointer's secondary click as a contextmenu event at all. ClipboardReader is wired on that head regardless, because the alternative is a head where the paste half silently does nothing and nobody finds out; that head is not compiled here either, this machine having no android workload.

Notice when a file session stops, and give the file browser the four things it was short of
The commit before this one taught a terminal to notice its machine going away.
The file browser had the same defect and three of the same symptoms, and it is
also the screen people leave soonest — so the disconnect work and four things it
was missing arrive together, because they are the same complaint: this screen
knows less about the host than the host does.
◆ THE DISCONNECT HALF, WHICH IS THE OTHER SURFACE OF THE LAST COMMIT.
IsConnected was set at connect and cleared only by the DISCONNECT button. A host
that went away therefore left this screen saying CONNECTED over a session that
was gone, and every action after it failing with the same server message and
nothing saying why they all did.
IRemoteFileStore now carries a latched TransportFailure and a ConnectionLost
event. The latch is the shell's own — read ISshShellSession.TransportFailure for
the argument, which is unchanged. The event is not, and it is the part this
surface needs: a file browser is idle between operations, so without something
raised at the moment the transport fails, nobody finds out until they click. A
bucket implements both and raises neither, which is honest rather than a gap:
S3 is request-per-operation with no connection to lose.
- THE LISTING STAYS ON SCREEN, and that is the half that makes the rest worth
having. SftpEntry is a record of what the server said rather than a handle,
so the pane can go on showing where the user was — which is what RECONNECT
is offering to put them back into. That needed a new ShowsRemoteContents on
both heads: every "is there anything here" binding read IsConnected, which
was right while the only way to stop being connected was to press a button
that empties the pane, and wrong the moment a session could be lost.
- RECONNECT re-dials through the ordinary connect path — same host key gate,
same refusals, same log entry — and then walks back to the directory the
pane was showing. The path is read off RemotePath rather than captured,
because the pane already keeps it up to date and a copy is a second thing to
get wrong. A host wanting a typed password is asked for one rather than
dialled with an empty box.
- SessionEndedBar is now one control on both surfaces, with the shell
resolving which it is drawn over: a terminal has two endings to tell apart
and a keychain entry to check, a file session has one ending and already
captured what it would dial. The phone's Files screen has its own copy,
bound to TransfersViewModel directly, because its DataContext is that rather
than the shell.
◆ PERMISSIONS: THE PERMS COLUMN STOPS BEING READ-ONLY.
It has been a true fact about a file with nothing to be done about it since it
arrived, and the commonest next act after using this screen was opening a
terminal — a whole second authenticated connection — to chmod what had just been
uploaded.
Nine checkboxes rather than a box to type 755 into, because the mode is already
drawn as -rwxr-xr-x in the column the form was opened from: a who-can-do-what
grid is the same representation the reader is holding, where an octal field asks
them to translate something they can see into something they cannot check. The
octal is printed underneath as it changes, so the two readings check each other.
The EXEC column is headed "enter" over a directory, which is what that bit means
there and the commonest misreading of a POSIX mode. The listing is re-read after
APPLY, because a umask, an ACL or a filesystem mounted without permissions can
all land somewhere other than what was asked for.
Beside it, mode and mtime carried across a transfer — which is what makes an
uploaded deploy.sh arrive executable instead of with the server's umask on it.
THE MODE IS ONLY SENT FROM A PLATFORM THAT HAS ONE. A file on Windows has no
POSIX mode; this screen already says so by leaving the local pane's PERMS column
empty rather than filling it with a plausible -rw-r--r--, and inventing 0644, or
0755 for anything called .sh, would be this client deciding a fact about
somebody's file that nothing on the machine it came from ever said. The
timestamp goes either way, because every platform has one. A store with neither
refuses in its own words and is never asked.
◆ MULTI-SELECT: A TICK IS NOT THE LIST'S SELECTION.
The two answer different questions and the split is the whole design. The
selection is "the row I am looking at", which rename, move and permissions act
on — each takes a form naming one path and is one-at-a-time by construction. The
tick is "the rows I have gathered up", which download, upload and delete take,
and it survives the highlight moving.
With nothing ticked the batch falls back to the selection, which is what keeps
the commonest use of this screen from growing a step — the usual way a
multi-select makes a tool worse. Ticks are released once a set is queued, or a
second press sends everything again.
Deleting several names every path rather than a count, because agreeing to "3
items" is agreeing to a number, and this is the one act on this screen that
nothing walks back. Each goes on its own and a refusal does not stop the rest:
the host turns down a directory that still has something in it, and in a set of
five that must not silently cancel the four it would have removed — nor hide
which ones it did not.
A drawn checkbox rather than ctrl-click, and not for taste: the phone shares
this view model and has neither ctrl nor shift, so a multi-selection has to be a
tap target there whatever the desktop does. One shape on both heads, and a state
somebody can see.
◆ RECURSIVE FOLDERS: THE TREE BECOMES FILES BEFORE THE QUEUE SEES IT.
A directory used to be counted and skipped. It is now walked, and the queue
still knows nothing about trees — which is what keeps every property it has:
each file resumable on its own, each written to a part file and renamed into
place, none able to overwrite anything already there.
The plan is collected whole and then queued, because directories have to exist
before the files that go in them and shortest-first is the only order that
guarantees a parent before its child. It also means a walk refused halfway has
queued nothing yet, so the sentence it produces describes one outcome rather
than an outcome and a queue that half happened.
Links are counted, not followed, in both directions. One pointing at an ancestor
is a walk with no end, and on the remote side there is a second reason: an lstat
listing says a name is a link and not what it leads to, so descending would be a
round trip per entry to find out. Locally that is AttributesToSkip on the one
enumeration that decides what to descend into. A 5000-file ceiling is a backstop
for the accidental drag of a home directory, and it says so rather than
truncating quietly.
The status line grew four more ways to be partly what was asked for, and states
each: gone, refused, left alone, not a file.
◆ EDITING IN PLACE: FETCH, OPEN, WATCH, PUSH BACK.
The round trip this replaces is download, find it, open it, edit, come back,
delete the old one because nothing here overwrites, upload, check the mode
survived.
DELIBERATELY NOT THROUGH THE TRANSFER QUEUE, in either direction. The queue
refuses to overwrite, which is the right rule for a file somebody dragged and
exactly the wrong one for a file they are editing, where replacing the original
is the entire intent. The write-back deletes first: OpenWriteAsync at offset
zero writes over the beginning and leaves any tail that is longer — its own
contract says so — which for a config that got shorter means a file ending in
the back half of its previous version. Deleting is the only truncation this
interface offers, and the mode goes back on afterwards because deleting took it.
A stat before every save, compared against what the server said when the copy
was taken, catches somebody else writing while the file is open — which is how a
config gets silently reverted. There is no merge and no button pretending
otherwise; the three answers offered are the three that exist. Length and
timestamp rather than a digest, because a digest is a second full read of a file
there is otherwise no reason to fetch.
Both platform halves are injected: what opens a .conf is a registry
association, a desktop entry or a Launch Services binding depending on the
desktop, and watching a file is a platform object with its own thread. The
watcher watches the directory and filters the name, because a great many editors
write a temporary file and rename it over the top — which to a watcher pointed
at an inode is the file disappearing. The phone gets neither delegate, so the
button is not live there rather than there and disappointing.
◆ TWO THINGS FOUND ON THE WAY, BOTH WORTH STATING.
The shell suite's inline `post` was not serialising the way a dispatcher does.
Routing TransfersViewModel through it exposed a check-then-add in
OnTransferChanged that two threads turn into two rows for one transfer. Harmless
in production, where the UI thread serialises — the fixture was under-specifying
what it stood in for, and now posts under a lock.
And the edit session replaced its own record with `with` on each save, which
left the watcher holding an instance that was no longer the current one: every
save after the first quietly did nothing. The stamp moves in place now, and the
test saves twice.
◆ WHAT IS VERIFIED.
901 across the five suites this touches, 19 of them new. The layout suite earned
its keep three times over: the batch deletion card's path list overflowed the
204-pixel pane at 120, at 72 and at 56 before 32 held, and the edit strip
overflowed by 131 until the whole strip — rather than the log inside it — was
bounded. Each number in those files is measured and says which failure it came
from, because the next person to add a line to either card will move them again.
What no suite covers is the platform halves of editing: Process.Start with
UseShellExecute and a live FileSystemWatcher are the operating system, and a test
waiting on one would be measuring it. The shell's own half — when a save is
written back, when it is refused, what stopping releases — is covered against a
watcher that fires on demand.

Notice when a shell ends, say which way it ended, and offer the way back
A terminal whose machine rebooted stayed green for ever. Not "went stale and
recovered late" — for ever: the tab claimed CONNECTED, the elapsed timer went
on counting, and the only thing that ever corrected it was closing the
application. That is the defect this fixes, and it turned out to be two
separate failures wearing one symptom.
◆ THE HANG IS IN SSH.NET, AND KEEP-ALIVE ALONE WOULD NOT HAVE FIXED IT.
ShellStream ends a blocked read from exactly two places: its channel being
closed, and the session raising Disconnected. A shell that exits gives the
first. But Session raises Disconnected from one method only — OnDisconnectReceived,
for a server that politely says goodbye — and a socket that simply fails goes
down a different path entirely: RaiseError fires the error event, sets the
disconnecting flag and disposes the socket, without ever raising Disconnected.
So the stream was never disposed, its Monitor.Wait was never pulsed, and the
read blocked until the process ended. The transport was gone, the client knew
the transport was gone, and nothing woke the one thread that was waiting.
That is why the first attempt at a test for this sat at thirty seconds and
failed. Both halves are needed and neither is sufficient:
- Keep-alive makes the failure HAPPEN. An idle SSH session is a socket
nobody writes to, and TCP has no way to discover that the far end has gone
without writing to it — nothing was asked, so nothing could fail. Thirty
seconds, matching OpenSSH's own ServerAliveInterval examples. It is the
write that matters and not a reply: SSH_MSG_IGNORE need not be answered,
so this is traffic rather than a heartbeat with a deadline, and there is
no timeout invented here to be wrong about a slow link.
- Disposing the stream from the error handler makes it ARRIVE. Queued to the
thread pool and not done inline, which is not tidiness: this runs on
SSH.NET's message-listener thread, and closing a channel waits for the
server's close — processed by that same thread — so an inline dispose is
the listener thread waiting on itself.
SFTP gets the keep-alive too. Its operations are request/response and bounded
by ConnectionInfo.Timeout already, so it needs no equivalent wake-up.
◆ exit AND reboot ARE TOLD APART BY A LATCH, BECAUSE THE OBVIOUS WAY IS A RACE.
Wait for the read to end and then ask whether the transport is still up, and
against a real server the answer is wrong about half the time: this was the
only channel on the connection, so sshd hangs up a millisecond after closing
it. By the time anything could ask, the transport is gone either way — and a
poll would report every ordinary `exit` as a dropped connection.
So ISshShellSession.TransportFailure is set at the moment SSH.NET raises the
failure, which its own ordering puts strictly before the disconnect that wakes
the read. A read that has just returned zero consults a settled value: set if
the transport failed, still null if the remote merely closed the channel. The
pump turns that into a TerminalSessionOutcome — RemoteClosed, ConnectionLost,
ClosedLocally — carried on SessionEnded, which used to hand over a session id
and nothing else. A subscriber cannot work this out afterwards; by the time it
hears, there is no transport left to interrogate.
Deliberately no fourth value for "the remote rebooted". Nothing on the wire
distinguishes a reboot from a cable being pulled, and a name this client
cannot check would be a guess dressed as a fact.
◆ WHAT IS DRAWN, AND WHY IT IS NOT DRAWN OVER THE PANE.
The status bar says DISCONNECTED or SHELL EXITED where it used to say NOT
CONNECTED for both — a word that is honest about a tab still dialling and
useless about one whose shell has stopped. Red for the first and grey for the
second: one is a machine that stopped answering and the other is work
finished, and crying wolf on the ordinary end of every session is its own bug.
The tab strip's dot gains the same fourth state, on both heads.
Under the terminal, a strip carrying the reason and two buttons. It takes its
own Auto grid row rather than overlaying the renderer, and that is forced
rather than chosen: the WebView is a native child view composited above
everything Avalonia draws, so the alternative is collapsing the terminal — and
the scrollback is precisely what the user wants to read, because the last
thing the remote said is usually why it went. terminal.js already writes the
same sentence into the pane; this is the copy that does not scroll away.
RECONNECT reuses the tab in place, which is what the word means to somebody
who pressed it: the terminal they were working in comes back, where it was.
It dials through the vault's ordinary connect path, so every refusal — a key
that has left the keychain, an unknown host key, a group default that has
changed since — is decided in the one place that already decides them; what
this adds is which tab the attempt belongs to. The old session is closed as
part of it, because a dead shell still holds an authenticated connection this
process has stopped reading, and its pane still holds an xterm, a scrollback
and a WebGL context, of which a browser hands out about sixteen.
Two refusals it makes rather than pretending: a host reached by typing an
address has no keychain entry to redial, and one that wants a password typed
goes to the keychain with the sheet raised rather than being dialled with an
empty box. Both say so on the strip where the button was pressed, not only in
the vault's status on a screen that surface is not.
TRY AGAIN appears on a refused connection for the same reason, and it is worth
as much: the commonest refusal is a host that was not up yet.
◆ WHAT IS ACTUALLY VERIFIED.
Two tests against a real sshd in a container. `exit` is reported as the remote
closing the session — the one a polling implementation fails, and a fake shell
cannot show it because a fake has no server behind it deciding to hang up. And
a live shell losing its transport is reported as a lost connection, produced
by dialling through a plain TCP relay the test owns and then cutting it; the
container is shared by the collection, so killing sshd was never an option.
The first draft of that second test used LoopbackProxyTests' SOCKS forward and
timed out: disconnecting the carrier of a ForwardedPortDynamic does not close
the loopback socket it accepted. Recorded in the test, because it is a
property of SSH.NET's forwarder rather than of anything here, and it is not
what a dying machine looks like.
What no test reproduces is the waiting. A relay that closes sends a FIN, so
the socket reports itself at once; a machine switched off sends nothing, and
finding that out is the keep-alive's business and the OS's retransmit budget's
— neither of which a test can hurry along without a clock this code does not
own. A reboot is prompt in practice because the machine comes back and RSTs.
Beside those: three pump outcomes, three workspace announcements, and seven
shell-flow tests covering the drop, the clean exit, reuse of the tab, retry
after a refusal, and both ways a reconnect can honestly come to nothing.
Also fixed in passing: SshNetShellSession.IsOpen read ShellStream.CanRead,
which is documented as always true — the stream stays readable after disposal
so buffered output can be drained — so it had answered "yes" for every shell
that ever existed. It reads CanWrite now. And MainWindowViewModel's session-
ended handler moved from Dispatcher.UIThread.Post to the injected post
delegate, which is what makes any of the shell half testable at all; the
remark listing the three unreachable posts is one shorter.

Name a quick-connect result's vault, and search on it
Ctrl+K reaches every vault the session holds a key for — that is deliberate, and it is what makes the palette worth opening from anywhere. What it did not do was say where a result came from. A team and a person who both call a machine prod-db got two identical rows, and Enter took whichever the ranking happened to put first: the same three characters, two different machines, depending on nothing anybody could see. Nothing new is computed for this. HostRowViewModel.VaultBadge has been filled in since the host list learned to span vaults, and it is already drawn on the hosts board, the keychain, the snippets list and the known-hosts pane. The palette was the one list reaching across every vault that did not print it. ◆ THE VAULT IS THE LAST OF THE FOUR RANKS, AND THAT IS THE POINT. A vault name is the widest reading of the three the palette had: one word matches every host in that vault at once, where a name or an address matches one machine. So it sits behind name-starts-with, name-contains and address — otherwise typing a machine's name would bury it under everybody else's. It matches on HasVaultBadge rather than on VaultName, so the search only ever matches what the row actually shows. A session holding one vault prints no vault on any row, and matching it there would answer "personal" with the entire keychain, ranked behind nothing and explained by nothing on screen. In the row, the right-hand column becomes two lines against the two on the left, in the same order: what this is above, how it is reached below. With one vault the badge is empty, the line collapses, and the kind word stays centred exactly where it was. The name is capped and ellipsised because that column is Auto-sized — a long vault name would otherwise take its width out of the host name beside it. Three tests, one per claim. VaultSharingTests puts platform-gateway in the personal vault and prod-db in "Platform secrets" and types "platform": both come back, the gateway first. ShellFlowTests types the personal vault's own name into a one-vault session and gets nothing. QuickConnectTests is the markup's half — the shared vault's row draws PLATFORM SECRETS, and a one-vault row draws no vault at all — with the shared vault put into the session through the layout suite's own StubTeamServer, as the settings pages' suite does it. 449 App tests and 155 layout tests pass. Both suites were run with -p:NuGetAudit=false: SSH.NET 2025.1.0 has picked up GHSA-q939-rpr3-3284 and NU1903 fails restore repo-wide, which predates this branch and is nothing to do with it. No package or lock file is touched here. |

Give the terminal back the width and the keyboard the session shell took
Seven things reported from a day's use of v5b's session shell, and they are one commit because five of them are the same complaint from different angles: the window spends too much of itself on chrome describing the session, and the parts that are not chrome do not behave. ◆ THE HOST HEADER IS GONE, and that is a deliberate departure from the design. Terminal.dc.html and SFTP.dc.html both draw a 60-pixel row above the pane: the address on the left, a cross-surface button on the right. Both facts are worth having and the strip they sat in was not — the tab already names the host, and a full-width bar repeating it was the cheapest 60 pixels in the layout to give back. The address is now the first line of the sidebar and the button is stretched across the column under it, so nothing is lost and the pane is taller. Which word that button carries and which command it runs used to be handed in from the two usage sites in MainWindow.axaml, because the control was drawn twice. One sidebar cannot do that, so SessionCrossSurfaceLabel and OpenOtherSurfaceCommand resolve it in the shell — the same place SessionAddress already decides which surface's fact to read. The two directions underneath are untouched: SelectFilesHostAsync for a tab's host, OpenTerminalForFilesHostAsync for a fresh terminal at whatever SFTP has open. SessionHeader.axaml is deleted rather than left unused, and LayoutHarness stops subtracting its 60 pixels from every session screen's budget — the same treatment the retired window-wide tab strip got, and for the same reason: a constant for chrome nobody draws is a suite quietly measuring the wrong rectangle. ◆ AND THE SIDEBAR CLOSES, which the design has no state for at all. 300 pixels of an 1081-pixel minimum is a great deal to spend on a list that is often two rows long. The column now folds to a 34-pixel rail carrying the chevron that brings it back — a rail rather than nothing, because a panel that vanishes leaving no trace is one people report as lost rather than as closed. Both states live in the one control and swap on IsSessionSidebarOpen, so MainWindow's own "Auto" column takes whichever width is showing without knowing the state exists. Written through to ClientSettings.SessionSidebarOpen rather than held for the session. It is a decision about how much of the window a terminal gets, and one that had to be made again on every launch would not really be on offer. ---- THE FOUR SMALLER ONES ---- A SNIP LANDED IN A TERMINAL NOBODY COULD TYPE AT, and looked selected when it got there. Two causes with nothing in common. The click moved Win32 focus onto the sidebar row, and term.focus() in the page cannot take it back — only the host can, so the shell raises TerminalFocusRequested and the window answers with the same posted focus every other path here uses. The highlight was bash: xterm wraps a paste in bracketed-paste markers, readline marks what arrives inside them as an active region, and it stays in reverse video until the next keystroke. Right for a clipboard paste, wrong for a snippet picked off a sidebar. Single-line snips are typed rather than pasted now, which needs no markers; multi-line still pastes, because "runs three commands unasked" is the worse of the two failures and the markers are the whole of what prevents it. A BLACK BAR UNDER THE TERMINAL, on Windows. xterm.css paints its scrolling viewport #000 — its own comment explains why, and it is a macOS scrollbar concern. Everywhere else that black is covered by the rows, except along the bottom: the fit addon floors the row count, so the remainder below the last whole row is bare viewport, up to a line tall, against this page's #171a26. The light square at its right-hand end is where WebView2's classic scrollbar corner lands. The viewport is repainted in the page's own background, and the scrollbar with it — thin and in these colours rather than a grey Windows channel down the side of a near-black terminal, and kept rather than hidden, because a surface that scrolls with no sign that it does is worse than a quiet bar. THE PINS ROW DREW A TOFU BOX. U+E946 is not in the embedded Material Icons face at all — that file is the 2019 build and its cmap skips E944 and E946 — so the rail's Pins row and the hosts screen's own pin badge have both been drawing a missing-glyph rectangle since v5b picked the codepoint. push_pin in that vintage is U+F10D, verified against the file rather than against a codepoints table for a later release of the font. Every other icon codepoint in the repository was audited the same way; this was the only miss. THE KBD CHIP CUT THE CHORD IN HALF. 34 pixels is the design's width for a chip reading ⌘K, and this build substitutes CTRL K — six characters and a space, wider than 34 at 10.5 mono. MinWidth and padding instead, so the design's footprint survives for the day this face has a ⌘ to draw. ---- AND THE POPOVER UNDER THE USER CHIP ---- Reported as not matching the design, and it was not: Button.poprow set a corner radius and a padding and never touched the Background, so every row wore the Fluent theme's own #33FFFFFF button fill. Six raised pills stacked in a menu the design draws as six lines of text — and the hover rule underneath was already correct and simply invisible against a fill that never went away. Set on the ContentPresenter as well as on the Button, the same as Button.flat, because the theme binds its brush there and a Background set only on the control loses to it. The panel itself gets this window's own radius-12 card treatment through a FlyoutPresenter class rather than by widening the shared context-menu rule, and Vaults and Preferences stop being drawn one step dimmer than Settings and Logout, which read as two disabled entries in a menu of five live ones. ---- WHAT PROVES IT ---- Three tests in the layout suite, two of them checked against the defect they describe: the popover row's resting fill (fails with #33ffffff without the style), and the kbd chip against the natural width of its own text, measured on a detached copy because a TextBlock's DesiredSize is already clipped to what it was given and reports 34 inside a 34-pixel chip either way. SessionSidebarTests is new — the sidebar has never been laid out by a test, and it now holds a string of unbounded length beside a button that has to stay clickable. In the shell suite: the cross-surface row in both directions, the closed state surviving to disk, and the focus request being made when a snip lands and not made when it does not. |

Say how far a connection has got while it is still being made
The connecting card set its status string once, when the tab was created, and never touched it again. Every connection therefore looked identical from the outside: one three seconds into a key exchange, one waiting out a fifteen-second timeout against a machine that is asleep, and one that had hung all drew the same "connecting…". The card now draws the five steps of getting there, each lit at the moment the handshake reports reaching it, over an amber track that fills as they finish. ◆ NOTHING ON THE LIST IS INVENTED. Every row changes state because a layer below it said so, at the instant the thing it names actually began. That is the whole reason it is worth showing, and it is why most of this commit is plumbing rather than XAML: there was no progress reporting anywhere in the stack to hook a step list onto, and a card animating plausible progress would have been indistinguishable from one that had stopped receiving any. SshConnectionPhase names four phases and deliberately not more. SSH.NET runs the entire handshake inside one ConnectAsync and raises exactly one event from the middle of it — HostKeyReceived, once the key exchange has produced a key to show — so that event is the only interior moment there is to report. Everything before it is Reaching and everything after it is Authenticating. A fifth phase in that assembly would have to be a timer, so there is not one. OpeningShell is reported by TerminalWorkspace instead, because that is where it happens: the factory's work ends with an authenticated connection, and asking for a pseudo-terminal on one is a separate round trip. The SFTP path passes null — a second connection opened behind an already-open shell has nobody watching a step list for it. The card's fifth step, "Starting the terminal", is the renderer wait and lives in the shell rather than in the SSH assembly, which has never heard of a renderer. On the first connection after a cold start it is a real wait with a real failure mode of its own — a missing WebView2 runtime — so a list that began at "reaching the host" would leave the one wait most likely to hang unnamed. Amber for the step in flight, and that follows the palette's rule rather than bending it. Green is what is true and purple is what you can press; a step still happening is neither, and it is exactly the caveat-worth-reading that amber exists for. Steps behind it go green as they become true. Nothing animates, which is the argument TransfersScreen.axaml already makes for its own track, reaching a screen with far more reason to want a spinner: a spinner is furniture invented to fill a state nobody measured, and these states are measured, so the track fills to what has finished and then waits there. A refusal keeps the step it stopped on, in red, with the ones behind it still green. That is the half a progress bar could not do, and it is the difference between "that host is not there" and "that host is there and would not have me" — a question the reason sentence alone frequently does not settle. The strip's dot goes amber while a tab is connecting, on both heads. It was grey, and so is a tab whose shell has exited: the two states in that strip with the least in common, one worth waiting for and one over. PhoneShell's own comment already recorded half of this — the dot stopped being green before anything had answered — and this is the other half. Progress is raised inline rather than through System.Progress<T>, which captures whatever synchronisation context it was constructed on and posts to it. That reads like a convenience and is really a second place the marshalling decision gets made: silently, differently under a test with no context, and out of order with respect to the failure that follows a phase. The shell marshals once, in one handler, through a new optional post parameter on MainWindowViewModel — the same seam TransfersViewModel already uses, and for the reason its own remark gives. The three Dispatcher.UIThread.Post calls that predate it are the ones this suite's comments record as out of reach; they are left alone rather than swept in here. Both heads draw the list. They differ in one place: Phone.axaml's mono class sets a colour and a size along with the family, so the caption rule names its own family instead of composing the two and asking two rules for one Foreground. The desktop's mono sets the family alone, which is why ConnectingCard does compose them. Each head also gains SHOW LOGS beside the button that gives up — the step list is this attempt and the log is every other one, which is what a connection taking too long actually raises. Seven tests, and the two that matter most run against the container rather than a fake: a real handshake reports its phases in order, and a host-key refusal never claims to have authenticated. A fake asserting what it was written to assert would have established nothing about either. The rest cover the tab advancing while the connection is gated, the step a refusal stops on, and a phase reported after the user has given up on the tab. 1,861 tests, none failing. The Android head's layout is not verified by anything. It compiles, and compiled bindings mean every new binding path resolves, but that project is not in DodoSSH.slnx, there is no test project for it and no device here — so unlike the desktop card, whose shapes the layout harness measures, these rows have not been drawn. Vertical fit is reasoned, not observed. |

Announce a session's end when it is actually over, and for closes too
The phone's notification kept saying '1 shell connected' after the shell was gone, and both close routes were at fault. A shell exiting on its own raised SessionEnded from inside its run's finally block — where the run task is by definition not yet complete, so the LiveSessionCount the keep-alive reads still counted the dead shell, and nothing fired later to correct it. A tab closed by hand announced nothing at all, by a recorded decision that assumed every subscriber was the closer; the keep-alive is not, and a close it never heard about left the notification claiming a shell over nothing. The end is now announced from a continuation after the run completes, and CloseSessionAsync announces after its own drain — every subscriber was already a reconcile-to-reality handler, so the echo the old remark feared costs nothing. Shutdown stays silent: it is dismantling the subscribers along with the sessions. |

Teach the page and the shell to put a reattached view back together
The page's socket now retries itself forever with backoff — a dropped socket is an ordinary event on a phone, not the end of the terminal's life — and createSession is idempotent, so a replay landing on a pane that survived changes nothing. A replay creating a pane that did not survive writes one dim line saying the earlier output stayed on the host, because that is the truth about a reloaded page's scrollback. The shell answers RendererReattached with the two things only it owns: the font size, and which tab is active. |

Draw what authenticated, and over what, on the session status bar
The v5b design's own row: the negotiated cipher, then the host key's algorithm and the name of the key or credential that authenticated, as one mono run beside CONNECTED — on both surfaces, off MainWindowViewModel's surface-aware SessionCipher and SessionIdentityText, the same shape SessionAddress set. The identity's name comes out of TryBuildAuthentication, the one resolution point that always had it in scope and always threw it away; it rides HostAuthentication to the tab and to the SFTP connect alike. Three deviations, recorded in the gaps doc: the algorithm prints as negotiated rather than shortened, the run is plain text because no pin-details modal exists for an open session, and a typed password shows the algorithm alone — there is no item behind the dot. A dead terminal tab keeps its facts for the scrollback still on screen; an SFTP disconnect, with no scrollback, clears them. |

Ask about a host key where the connection was made, not on the host list
The trust prompt was two banners at the top of the desktop's hosts screen, so the shell navigated there before letting a handshake raise one: Screen = Hosts, Surface = Page, in OnVaultConnectionFailed and again in the palette's own connect. The reason was sound — a connection can be started from Ctrl+K on any screen, and a question behind whatever somebody is looking at is a question nobody can answer — and it was answered the wrong way round. Rather than making the decision reachable from where the user is, it moved the user to where the decision was, and charged every screen for it. It is worst for the one connection that has no host at all. A machine typed into the phone's connect box is deliberately in no keychain, so a first contact from there judged it on a list it does not appear on, after taking the box that dialled it away. So both heads now draw the decision over the surface. HostKeyCard is the desktop's, and is the counterpart of the phone's HostKeySheet: a scrim with no press handler, because a question with two named answers must not be answerable by missing; the unknown key offering TRUST AND CONNECT, because judging a fingerprint against what an operator published is a decision a person is entitled to make and the only moment they can make it; and the changed key offering no way forward at all, because a button beside that warning is "continue anyway" with two clicks instead of one. The phone needed no new markup — its sheet was already a shell-level overlay, so deleting the navigation is what puts it over the Connections screen. IsHostKeyDecisionShowing is on the shell rather than on a screen because the answer decides an occlusion. A second connection can be refused while a first one is open, so this card is routinely raised over a live terminal, and that rectangle is a native child window: layered over it the card would be sliced at its left edge with TRUST AND CONNECT taking no clicks, which for the most safety-critical question in the product is the worst place for that class of bug to land. IsTerminalShowing gives the rectangle up instead. The banners are gone rather than copied. One prompt in two markups is two copies of the most safety-critical wording here, and the second is the one that goes stale. TWO DEFECTS FOUND BEHIND IT. VaultViewModel.RejectHostKey cleared only the pending key and never the mismatch, so the changed-key refusal had no working exit. That was invisible for as long as it was a banner nothing was drawn over — nothing was trapped, and the next attempt cleared it — and it was already live on the phone, where that refusal is an opaque full-screen panel whose one button runs this command: pressing it left the panel up over every screen the user went to next, including the host editor the panel tells them to open. TransfersViewModel.RejectHostKey has always cleared both; the vault's was the outlier. Its button said BACK TO HOSTS, which was wrong twice over, and now says BACK. And an assertion written for this change could not fail: the palette test asserted the renderer was collapsed in a scenario whose only tab had just been removed, so it was collapsed for want of a session whatever the occlusion rule said. It is gone, with a note pointing at the test that can fail on it. VERIFIED. 1580 tests, build clean, no new warnings, format clean. Three mutations each seen to fail and then seen green again: dropping !IsHostKeyDecisionShowing from IsTerminalShowing, caught by AChangedHostKey_CollapsesTheTerminalItIsRefusedOver; reverting RejectHostKey to clear one flag, caught by RefusingAHostKeyDecision_TakesItOffTheScreen(false) and by that same test; and dropping the two host-key arms from OnVaultPropertyChanged, caught by TheHostKeyDecision_IsAnnouncedToTheWindowWhenItArrivesAndWhenItGoes. That last one is the first test in this repository to watch PropertyChanged, and it is worth being the first: every other assertion about the flag reads it directly, and a direct read passes with the subscription deleted — while the card would never go away. The two layout tests moved with the prompts, from the hosts screen to the card. manual-checks gains 7.4a for the occlusion, 7.4b for getting out of a refusal and 11.7a for the hand-typed case, none of which a test can see; 1.5 and 7.4 are corrected rather than left describing a window that no longer moves. ONE ROUGH EDGE, DELIBERATELY LEFT. On the desktop, refusing a first contact whose tab was the only one leaves the terminal surface with no tabs — a blank rectangle under the strip's "no terminals open · press + or Ctrl+K", which is the one sentence near that rectangle Avalonia can draw. The alternative was falling back to the page, and on the phone that means the host list, which is the bug this commit is about. A desktop connect page would close it properly. |

Give the phone a selection instead of a card under the list
A long press on a host raised a connect card over the bottom of the list: a password box, CONNECT, EDIT, MOVE and DELETE. It was the right idea in the wrong place. It covered rows, it had room for five things and never a sixth, and every one of them was about exactly one machine — so filing eleven imported hosts under a group was eleven trips through a form, and there was nowhere to put a sixth action if anybody wanted one. A long press now chooses the host it landed on, and the actions move into a bar across the top of the screen, in the vault header's place rather than beside it. That is where Android has put them since contextual action bars existed, and it is the one strip a list can never grow into — but the real reason for it is that while it is up the screen is unambiguously about the ticked hosts and nothing else, which is what lets the count in the middle of it mean something. Left to right: the cross that leaves the mode, the count, the pencil, and a ⋯ holding Connect, Connect via SFTP, Move to vault, Copy to vault, Change group, Duplicate and Remove. A tap still connects and still raises nothing. Once anything is ticked it ticks and unticks instead, which is what every Android list does and is not merely a convention worth following: a tap that connected while five machines sat ticked would open a terminal on top of a selection somebody was halfway through building. Unticking the last host leaves the mode, so there are two ways out of it and the cross is only one of them. Both gestures now read the row from the element under the finger rather than from the list's selection, and that is a correctness change rather than tidying. A tap on a group heading moves the selection and the view model bounces it straight back to whichever host was chosen before — which answered "a host, or nothing" for free while a tap only ever connected. It stops answering it the moment a tap can tick one: the heading would tick a machine the user was not pointing at, into a set they are about to delete. Three of the seven entries are about one machine and are drawn only for one. A terminal, a file-transfer session and a form each have no reading over six, so they are collapsed rather than refused. The other four read better for a count than without one — it is the reason the set exists — and each of them says afterwards how many hosts it wrote and how many it left alone. Skipping beats refusing the whole run: a selection of eleven with one read-only row would otherwise do nothing at all and then report about the wrong ten. Copy to vault and Duplicate are new, and the difference between them is what each can safely carry. A copy crosses a key boundary, so it drops the group and the tags exactly as a move does — both are items of the vault being left, and a host arriving with either would point at something the destination does not contain, resolvable on the machine that sent it and dangling for everybody else. A duplicate stays in the same keychain, so everything it points at is still there and it keeps both. Change group is the write dragging a card onto a group already makes on the desktop, run over a selection; it refuses one spanning two keychains rather than half-filing it, which is the refusal a drop across that boundary already makes one host at a time. Connect via SFTP is the one action that leaves the vault. Which machine is a decrypted item and so is this object's business; the screen it leads to and the transfers view model behind it are the shell's — so it is an event, on the same division SessionOpened already draws for a shell. The host is re-found in that screen's own copy of the list, because the picker binds to rows in that copy and handing it the vault's object would select nothing. What is left of the card is the password box, and only because it had nowhere else to go: a host that authenticates with a typed password cannot be reached by a tap alone. That tap now raises a sheet rather than the bar, and the difference is that a sheet is up only while a question is on screen — the bar was raised by a long press and stayed, so it was a password box sitting over the list whether or not anything was being asked. Dismissing it empties the box, which is not tidiness either: a secret left behind would satisfy the emptiness check that decides whether to raise the sheet at all, so the next tap would dial with somebody else's password. The pencil moving into that bar takes the host editor with it. It was a card in the list's own row, under the search box and the sync line — twenty controls sharing a screen with two rows of chrome about the list it had replaced. It is a page now, and PhoneShell stands all four of its rows down for it, which is what "opens with all the options" means at 360dp. That needed a second subscription in that control: two of its flags are questions about the vault rather than about the shell, and the shell does not forward the vault's notifications. The ticks are held as entity ids rather than as rows, and written back onto the rows after every reload. Every row object in the list is replaced on every filter keystroke and every synchronisation pass, so a set of rows would empty itself once a minute under somebody choosing what to do with eleven machines. Ids that no longer resolve are dropped, so a colleague's deletion arriving mid-selection leaves a count that matches what is on screen. One caller had to change with it. ConnectToRecent opened the pane about a host, which was the desktop's drawer and the phone's card; the phone's answer is now a tick, and nothing on that list means "selected" any more — so arriving with the host merely selected would be arriving at a screen with nothing to press. Both are raised together, and the one the head in front of the user does not draw is inert. |

Let the recovery code be copied, and give the phone a clipboard to copy to
Both screens had made the code selectable and both said why: a person who cannot get it out of the box photographs the screen, and a screenshot is a worse home for it than a clipboard. This finishes that argument. Selecting 64 characters of letter-spaced monospace with a thumb is the version of "possible" people give up on halfway — and on the phone the screen blocks screenshots, so the honest remaining options were retyping it or losing it. It is the one secret this application deliberately offers to a clipboard, and the contrast with the keychain's copy is the whole argument rather than an inconsistency. There, copying the private half is refused outright, because installing a key means pasting the public one and the private one has no business leaving the vault. Here there is no better route: the code exists for one screen, is stored nowhere, and has to reach a password manager. The clipboard is the intended destination rather than a way round the design. The sentence afterwards matters as much as the copy, and is asserted: a clipboard is a staging post, this screen is the only place the code exists, and the next thing copied replaces it. Somebody who copies and does nothing has not saved it. The phone had no clipboard delegate at all — the desktop passed one and this head passed null — so COPY PUBLIC KEY on the keychain answered "this machine has no clipboard" on a device that plainly has one. Nothing about that was platform shaped: Android has a clipboard and Avalonia surfaces it through the same TopLevel. Wiring it fixes that copy too. The test fixture built its shell without a clipboard, which modelled the bug rather than the product, so it has one now and the public-key test asserts what lands there instead of the refusal. The refusal keeps its own test, on a shell built without one, because the view model reads the delegate's absence rather than an empty result — and because a button that silently does nothing on this screen is worse than one that refuses. |

Let a tap on the phone's host list mean connect
Choosing a machine raised the connect bar over the bottom of the list: a password box, CONNECT, EDIT, MOVE and DELETE. Five controls in the way of the one thing a tap on a machine's name obviously means. So the gestures split. A tap connects. A long press raises the bar, with all five. The pencil in the phone's header — its only persistent chrome — edits whichever host is chosen, which is the one of the five common enough to be worth a control that is always in the same place. The flag doing it is the desktop's own IsHostPaneOpen rather than a second one. That head made exactly this move when a selection stopped opening its drawer, and the question both are asking is "has somebody asked about this host" — answering it twice is how two heads come to disagree about what a selection means. One tap cannot finish: a host that authenticates with a typed password has nowhere on a list to be given one. That tap raises the bar with the box in it and says so, and a second tap with the box filled in connects. The branch is in the view model rather than in the head, because "can this machine be reached without asking for anything" is the same question the bar's own password box answers, and a copy of it in a view would be a second reading of a binding chain that has one. Two mechanics worth knowing. Avalonia raises Tapped on release whatever the press lasted, so a long press would open the bar and then connect — one touch firing both gestures — which is why HostsScreen tracks the hold and swallows the tap it precedes. And Holding only fires once IsHoldingEnabled is set, so that and the handler are attached together rather than one in markup and one in code. ConnectToRecent now opens the pane rather than selecting the row. On the phone it has to: a selection alone raises nothing now, so going back to a recent machine would land on a screen with nothing to press. |

Let the phone replace itself, and give CI a channel it may sign
The Android head had no updater and no release path, and the two are one problem: Android refuses an update signed by a different key, and CI generates a fresh debug key in every container. An APK released from a workflow could be installed once and never updated again — each new one an uninstall, which on this product means losing the cache, the outbox and the device key. So there are two channels, and they are two applications because the platform gives no third option. dev.dodotech.dodossh is cut from a v* tag by a person running scripts/release-android.ps1 with the key ADR 0011 rule 1 keeps off runners. dev.dodotech.dodossh.nightly is cut from main by CI and signed with a keystore committed here in the open — a key everybody has cannot be stolen and grants nothing by being held, which is why putting it in CI does not touch the rule. Neither can update the other, by construction. See ADR 0014. The android job assumed an image with a JDK and an Android SDK on it, which is what a GitHub runner is and what this project's is not. It now installs a JDK, fetches Google's command-line tools, accepts the licences and installs API 36 — each a no-op where it is already satisfied, and each cached by the persistent runner's own disk rather than by an action that would move a quarter of a gigabyte to rebuild a directory that never left. The client reads a small JSON manifest beside the APK, the counterpart of releases.win.json, and compares Android's versionCode rather than a version name: that integer is what the platform itself uses to accept or refuse an install, so comparing anything else would offer updates the phone then rejects. It fetches, and then asks Android to ask — the system draws its own confirmation, and from API 26 will not draw even that until unknown sources is on for this application. IUpdateChannel gained ApplyingEndsTheProcess. On Windows applying replaces the files and restarts, so the shell disposes the vault first and that is what zeroes the keys. On the phone the install is a request and the answer may be no, so disposing first would answer "not now" with a locked keychain and every shell closed — a punishment for declining an update. Two measured bugs found on the way, both older than this work and both invisible to a -getProperty check. ApplicationDisplayVersion is read by the Android targets in a top-level PropertyGroup, so the target setting it from MinVer ran after the only thing that reads it: every APK ever built here said versionName 1.0.0. And nothing found so far varies the launcher name per channel — four mechanisms tried, all of them recorded in platform-flags, none of them reaching the label the launcher shows. The two channels share an icon name for now and are told apart by package name, version, and what the preferences screen says. |

Let the desktop client replace itself, and give the repository one version
Packaging for Windows, and the updater that only exists once something is
packaged. Velopack, win-x64, fed from the project's own forge — never from the
deployment a client signs in to, which is ADR 0011 rule 2 carried over
unchanged and is why the feed address is a constant in the code rather than a
setting. See docs/adr/0012-desktop-distribution-and-updates.md.
**Nothing is ever installed while somebody is using it.** A newer build is found
on a six-hourly pass, downloaded in the background, and then waits — for a
restart the user presses, or for the next launch they were going to do anyway.
That is a policy rather than caution: this application argues at length that
locking keeps shells running, because a lock that destroyed work would stop
being used, and a restart does not keep them. Having taught that, it owes the
user the choice at the one moment it stops being true, and the sentence saying
so counts the shells it would close.
**The version is now derived from the v* tag**, by MinVer, for everything. There
was no version before this — no property anywhere, so every assembly reported
the SDK's 1.0.0 and the API served that string as its serverVersion to every
client that asked. The tag was already the version of record for the container
image; this makes it the version of record full stop. MinVer's failure mode is
answering plausibly rather than failing, and here a wrong version is a client
that never updates, so it is guarded twice: fetch-depth 0 on every checkout, and
a step that fails a tag build when the tag and the computed version disagree.
**The pack id is DodoSSH.Desktop and not DodoSSH**, which is the one decision
here that would have destroyed data. Velopack installs to %LOCALAPPDATA%\<packId>
and removes that whole directory on uninstall, and %LOCALAPPDATA%\DodoSSH is
where ClientPaths keeps the encrypted cache, the outbox of changes not yet
pushed, and the device key. The obvious id would have had the uninstaller
silently delete work the server has never seen — the thing the application
refuses to do without a counted confirmation. Velopack's own advice to move user
data to roaming %APPDATA% is declined for the reason ClientPaths already gives.
**Releases are cut by a person, and CI gains no job that could.** The tempting
argument is that a forge write token is not a signing key. It does not survive
contact with what the token does: Velopack clients trust their feed and do not
verify a package signature when they apply one, so whoever can write a release
can ship an update every install runs. That is the capability ADR 0011 rule 1
puts on a machine which is not a runner, reached through a different door. The
mechanical objection — vpk needs Windows and the runners are Linux — is the
smaller of the two and is recorded beside it, because somebody will fix one and
believe they are done.
Unsigned for now, deliberately and with the cost stated where a user reads it:
SmartScreen warns once per person, on Setup.exe, because Mark-of-the-Web is
applied by the browser that downloaded it. In-app updates are fetched by the
application and applied from a local file, and never trip it.
The banner is a fourth row of the window rather than an overlay. Anything drawn
in the terminal's rectangle is sliced by the native child window that composites
above it — the defect this window has shipped once — and a sibling row is the
arrangement TitleBar and StatusBar already prove works.
----
Three defects surfaced on the way, none of them in the feature being built.
**A settings key absent from the file came back as the CLR default, not the
declared one.** The JSON source generator builds a record through a synthesised
parameterised constructor and assigns every property from its argument array, so
a property initializer runs and is then overwritten by a default for anything the
file did not contain. A settings.json of {} read back a font size of 0, clamped
up to the 8px floor rather than the 13px the renderer draws at. It could not bite
while there was one setting, because that setting was written on every save and
so was never absent; adding a second would have turned automatic update checks
off for every existing profile, silently, the opposite of the documented default.
Reflection-based deserialisation of the same JSON answers correctly, which is why
every way of checking it by hand agrees except the one that ships. The defaults
now live on the constructor parameters, which is the only place the generator
reads them from.
**Declaring a RuntimeIdentifier on the desktop head broke the server's image
build.** It is the obvious way to let a self-contained publish restore under
locked mode, and it writes a net10.0/win-x64 target into the lock file of every
project the head references transitively — including DodoSSH.Contracts and
DodoSSH.Crypto, which the API builds too. The Dockerfile restores those with no
RID and fails NU1004. Found by running docker build rather than by reading. The
RID stays out of the committed state; the two commands that need one ask for it
unlocked, and the release script puts the lock files back.
**A Docker ARG named VERSION silently sets MSBuild's Version.** An ARG is an
environment variable for the rest of the stage, MSBuild reads environment
variables as properties, and property names are case-insensitive. With the
workflow passing main-<short sha> on a main build the publish died with
NETSDK1018 pointing at DodoSSH.Contracts, a project nobody had touched. The build
stage's argument is ASSEMBLY_VERSION now, empty except on a tag build.
All three are in docs/platform-flags.md, which is where the next person will look.
----
Verified: the whole solution builds and restores locked; 289 shell, 93 layout and
54 session tests pass, including the regression test for the settings defect and
a measurement of the banner at the window's minimum width. vpk pack runs end to
end and reports "Verified VelopackApp.Run()" against Program.Main. The API image
builds correctly both as a main build and as a tag build, carrying 1.0.0 and
0.1.0 respectively.
Not verified, and it needs a published release to be: installing, updating and
uninstalling on a real machine. That is Phase 15 of docs/manual-checks.md, and
the pack id and the WebView2 profile fix are reasoned and commented but only
proved by walking it. Two things to watch at the first upload — the reverse
proxy's body-size limit for a 64 MB asset, and whether vpk upload gitea is happy
with Gitea 1.27.1.

Let a shared vault arrive, a bucket be found, and a vault be deleted
Three things a user reported, one of which was a real bug and one of which was
not the bug it looked like.
**A vault shared with somebody never reached their machine.** The grant was
correct at both ends: the sharing client verified the recipient's key against the
key log and wrapped every generation to it, the server stored it, and /me would
have returned it. Nothing asked. VaultSession.RefreshVaultsAsync — the method
whose own summary says it is "called after a share and on a periodic pass" — had
no caller anywhere in the application, so the vault list was whatever the last
browser sign-in cached. A restart did not help: an offline unlock reads that same
cache. The vault appeared only if the recipient happened to sign in through the
browser again, which is why this looked like sharing being broken rather than
like a list that was never re-read.
So every synchronisation pass now re-reads it, before it syncs. SyncOnceAsync
takes the whole server rather than its sync half for that reason, and the order
matters: a vault admitted by the refresh is one that same pass then pulls, where
the other order would show a newly shared vault as an empty one until the minute
after. The shell is told only when the set actually changed — it rebuilds the tab
strip's vault menu from the session's list, and doing that on every quiet pass
would rebuild a menu once a minute for nothing.
The test needed the fake server to be able to do something no test here had
needed before: hand this account a vault it did not make. ShareVaultWithMe wraps
a real key to the encryption key this account enrolled, so the keyring opens it
exactly as it opens a real colleague's — a helper that filled the field with
bytes would let a vault appear in the list and never prove it could be read.
**Adding an S3 bucket on the desktop works, and could not be found.** The report
was that it is not possible; driving the real XAML headlessly says otherwise —
Keychain, + BUCKET, and the editor saves. What is true is that S3 is where
somebody goes looking, and from there SELECT BUCKET opened a combo box with
nothing in it and no sentence anywhere saying that a bucket is a keychain item.
From where the user was standing that is indistinguishable from an application
with no way to add one.
The empty state now says what a bucket is and offers a button that lands on the
keychain with the editor already open — navigating to the screen and leaving
+ BUCKET to be found among five buttons would be most of the same problem. The
phone gets the sentence and no button: its keychain screen reads and deletes and
edits nothing, so there is no editor to send anybody to, and naming the machine
that has one beats an empty control that reads as a screen still loading.
The keychain screen's layout test grew the two categories it never covered.
Tags and buckets arrived after it was written, and the header strip it measures
is one that has overflowed twice before.
**A vault can now be deleted.** DELETE /api/v1/vaults/{id}, gated on Admin —
the line the rename already drew, for a stronger version of its reason, since
this takes the vault from everybody in it at once. The row is soft-deleted and
every grant to it withdrawn in one write; VaultAccessService filters on the stamp
at both ends, so from that moment the vault is absent from every member's /me and
every call naming it answers 404. Their clients notice on the pass described
above.
The team behind it is archived when it owned nothing else, which is the mirror of
renaming it: a vault made from the vaults screen gets a team named after it that
nobody was ever shown, and leaving that behind would leave a membership list no
screen has a row for. That is a second call rather than one transaction —
archiving is TeamService's, it refuses while a team owns vaults, and it can only
tell that this one no longer does once the deletion is committed. A crash between
the two leaves an empty team: invisible, archivable afterwards, harmless, and a
better failure than a vault that could not be deleted because tidying up after it
did not work.
Two refusals worth stating. The personal vault cannot be deleted at either end:
it is created by enrollment, everything filed nowhere else lives in it, and no
call would make another. And the items are kept — ciphertext behind a vault
nothing will resolve, so deleting them buys no confidentiality while destroying
what an operator undoing a mistake would need.
The client drops the key from the keyring and the row from the cache rather than
waiting for a refresh, so the list is right immediately; the items stay, as they
stay for a vault whose grant was withdrawn, because a copy is on every other
member's machine too and removing these rows would be the client pretending to a
reach it does not have. The confirmation says that out loud before it is
answered. It is the one sentence this screen must not leave implied: deletion is
no more retroactive than revocation is. See ADR 0001.
Desktop only, deliberately. The Android vaults screen offers no rename and no
hand-over either, so adding delete alone there would be the one destructive vault
operation on a screen with no other.
Three places asserted that a vault can never be deleted — TeamService's refusal
message, the TeamNotEmpty problem code, and ADR 0009 — and each now names the
route instead.

Make the vault the thing you share, and ask a host which one it lives in
The teams screen listed teams that owned vaults, so sharing four servers with two
colleagues meant creating a team, then a vault inside it, then wrapping a key.
Two of those three steps are about a concept nobody arrives wanting. The screen
now lists vaults: naming one creates the membership list that carries it, named
after the vault and owned by you, and members, invitations, roles, hand-over and
key holders all hang off the vault they apply to.
Nothing on the server moved. VaultAccessService still resolves a shared vault
through team_membership and every membership call still names a team id — what
went is the requirement that anybody make one. The split the whole design rests
on is untouched and is still what the screen is built around: adding somebody
authorises the server to serve them, and only a machine holding the key can make
the vault readable. ADR 0009 keeps its decision and gains an addendum recording
which half of it a person is now asked about.
The one place the team resurfaces is a membership list carrying several vaults,
which this screen cannot produce and does not hide: the members section says so,
because "adding somebody here adds them there" is precisely the fact a
vault-shaped screen is in a position to conceal.
Two things left the interface and one arrived. Creating a team is gone, and so is
archiving one — it was only ever possible for a team owning no vaults, and a
screen whose rows are vaults has no row for one, so the button would have been
unreachable or always refused. The endpoint is unchanged and the screen states
the limit instead, since a vault cannot be deleted at all. The exception is a
create whose second call failed: cancelling that form archives the membership
list it left behind, which is a deliberate departure from this client's rule
against tidying up on the user's behalf, made because nothing else can reach it.
What arrived is PUT /api/v1/vaults/{id}. Without it the screen loses its only
editing action, since renaming the team behind a vault is invisible to everybody
who was never shown the team. It is gated on PermissionFlags.Admin — the line
UpdateTeamEndpoint already draws, because a name is what everybody in the vault
sees it called rather than part of its contents — and it renames the owning team
with it when that team carries nothing else, so the row an operator reads and the
name a user says cannot drift apart. The slug never moves, for the reason it does
not move on a team rename. The session edits its cached vault row rather than
replacing it with the response, which deliberately carries no wrapped key.
The host editor now asks which vault a host goes into, beside the name, while
adding and only where there is more than one vault to write to. It is a second
picker rather than the keychain screen's reused, and the two selections are
separate on purpose: that one is a standing preference about where new items go,
this is a field of the host in front of you, and binding both to one selection
would mean a click on the other screen could move a half-typed host. An existing
host is not offered it at all rather than offered it disabled — the two vaults
are encrypted under different keys, so moving an item is a delete and a retype.
That forced a fix worth naming. The group picker was built from the active
vault's groups whatever vault the host was being filed into, so a host put in a
shared vault could be filed under a group only its author can resolve — a
colleague would see it filed under nothing, which is the quietest kind of wrong.
Groups are now kept per vault and the picker follows the vault choice.
Two renames, because the pair they would otherwise have made is a bug farm:
ShellScreen.Vault became Keychain and VaultScreen became KeychainScreen, which is
what the rail has always labelled that screen, leaving Vault for one vault's
contents and Vaults for the vaults themselves. The enum values are unchanged;
NavRail.axaml writes them as x:Static literals.
1536 tests pass, seven more than before. Five are new on the server — the rename
endpoint's success, the team it does and does not take with it, the two refusals
and the empty name — and the client suite gains six and folds four together,
having lost the two about archiving a team.

Make a vault the thing you create, and let a window set one aside
Everything a shared vault needs was already here and arranged the wrong way round. A vault has to belong to a team, so creating one meant going to the teams screen, founding an organisation, and only then adding a vault to it — which the NEW VAULT button named after the team, so a team with three of them held three vaults called the same thing and nothing told them apart. Somebody who wants to share four servers with two colleagues is not asking to found anything. So the form asks for a name and nothing else. The team is derived from it, slug included, and created with this account as its owner; the vault goes inside; and the members, roles, invitations and key holders that hang off a team are all on screen the moment it exists. The tab strip's New vault entry lands there with the new vault selected, which is where the next thing anybody wants to do already is. That is two calls, and the first can succeed alone. When it does the team is kept: the id is minted once into pendingVaultTeamId, so pressing CREATE again resends the identical create — which the server treats as the same team — and retries the vault, and the message says all of that rather than "creating the vault failed". Archiving the orphan instead would be a client deleting something on the user's behalf because a later step failed, which is the kind of tidying that eventually archives a team somebody has just been added to. A slug taken by somebody else is retried once with a disambiguated one and never in a loop; a name with no a-z or 0-9 anywhere in it falls back to the team's own id rather than to a refusal pointing at a field nobody was shown. The other half is the caret beside Vaults. Being in four teams means four teams' machines in front of you all day, and the answer is a switch per vault rather than four sign-ins. Switching one off takes its hosts, groups, keys and pins off the screens that list them and does nothing else: it still syncs, its key stays in the keyring, it stays choosable as somewhere to file a new item, and a shown host that authenticates with a key filed in it still connects. That last one is what shaped the design. TryBuildAuthentication resolves a binding out of the keychain's typed list and a cross-vault binding is legal, so filtering the reload loops — the obvious implementation — would have turned a preference about reading into an outage. Only the projections a person reads consult IsVaultShown; every Reload*Async stays whole, including the dialled-endpoint set that decides which pins are described as unused, because that is a hint which invites deleting trust. Snippets, logs and buckets needed no code and the comment says so out loud: all three read ActiveVaultId alone, and the personal vault is drawn in the menu ticked and cannot be switched off — it is the active vault, the group and tag editors' target, and the save picker's fallback, so hiding it would empty half the application rather than filter it. The preference is a column on the cache's vault row, which is what makes it survive both a relaunch and the /me refresh that runs every minute: Apply does not touch it, deliberately, because the server has never been told which vaults this machine is showing. It is in the encrypted cache rather than settings.json because it is a list of vault ids and that file's own doc comment says what may go in it. VaultSession cannot see the type at all — ReadableVaults is what the sync loop walks, and a filter reaching it would be a vault that quietly stopped syncing, found out weeks later from a host that was never there. The strip's note refusing a MenuFlyout stands and is unchanged. This flyout sidesteps the question rather than answering it: the handler selects the Vaults tab first, which collapses the renderer, so nothing native is under the popup by the time it opens — the move QuickConnect already makes. A headless test asserts that ordering, which is as far as headless can go with no native window, and manual check 1.6 is the other half. The phone is out of scope on purpose: it has no tab strip and its teams screen's vault section is read-only. The plumbing is in Client.Shell, so it can adopt this later; until then nothing there is ever hidden, which is today's behaviour. 1514 tests pass. Fifteen are new in VaultVisibilityTests, and the ones worth naming are the guards: a hidden vault still syncs, still holds keys that authenticate hosts on screen, still appears in the save picker, and still counts towards which pins nothing dials. Not fixed, and noted here because it is next door: VaultGrantService's team-vault create refuses a taken vault id rather than returning the existing vault, while VaultSharing's own remark claims a create whose response was lost is safe to resend. A lost 200 therefore leaves a vault whose key the client's catch already zeroed, openable by nobody. |

Give the phone a way to enrol the fingerprint it already unlocks with
The Android device key store, the biometric gate and the lock screen's UNLOCK WITH FINGERPRINT button have all shipped since this head was written, and none of them could ever run: that button appears only when a device key exists, and nothing on the phone could create one. `CanUnlockWithDevice` was false on every launch of every phone. This is the missing half. **The offer is on PREFERENCES**, which held a PendingScreen until it had a setting on it. It is there rather than beside the button it turns on because registering needs an unlocked keychain and a reachable server — the vault has to be open to seal the bundle, and the wrap has to reach the account or a phone somebody has lost could never be revoked. Neither is true on the lock screen. One card, and exactly one of its three blocks is ever drawn: the offer, the withdrawal, or the sentence saying this phone has nowhere to keep a key. That is `CanRegisterDevice` / `CanForgetDevice` / `HasNoDeviceKeyOption`, which are two flags and not one and its negation for the reason written where they are set — a phone with no screen lock and a phone already registered are both "cannot register", and only the second has anything to take back. The withdrawal has no confirmation, deliberately, and the sentence above it carries what the desktop puts in a tooltip this head has no room for. `StatusMessage` is on the screen because it is the only feedback this head has once the system's own dialogue has gone. **Two things would have been wrong in the feature the moment it worked.** `Environment.MachineName` answers `localhost` on Android, and registering names the device — so every phone would have arrived in the account's device list as another identical row, on the very screen a lost handset is revoked from. `PhoneEnvironment.DeviceName` was already written and never called; the shell now takes it as an optional constructor argument that the desktop does not pass, and it reaches enrollment, registration and every connection log entry. That was gap §7 of docs/android-port.md, and it is now closed. And the status line said "Waiting for Windows…" over an Android biometric prompt. `GestureWait` picks the sentence from the platform rather than from a head, unlike the device name beside it: a device name is a fact about one handset only the head can read, and which dialogue appears is a fact about the operating system this assembly is running on. Two tests cover the seam — the injected name reaching the account, and the default still being this machine's own name — and `FakeVaultServer` records what each device called itself, because the name is the only part of a registration a person ever reads. The gesture itself is unreachable from any test process, so Phase 13 of docs/manual-checks.md carries five checks, including that enrolling a new fingerprint in Android's own Settings destroys the key. That one is the property that makes this a fast path rather than a weakening of the passphrase. |

Merge main into the phone connections branch
Main had already taken this branch's first two commits, so what merged is the Connections work against three things that landed beside it. Four of the six conflicts were prose about arrangements both sides changed; two were real. **The phone hub gained a Teams row while this branch was moving the keychain onto it.** Both are additions to `IsMoreSurface` and both belong: teams because the desktop reaches them from its rail and the phone through the hub, the keychain because a bottom bar is for the places a session moves between. The membership test, the back gesture's first case and the hub's own arithmetic all take the union. The distinction is now written down rather than implied — teams is the design's count plus one, and the keychain is the only rearrangement of it: the bar lost a slot to gain that row. **`ConnectAndAnnounceAsync` was the real one.** Main gave it `RememberTypedPasswordAsync`, which binds the password that just worked to the host it worked on; this branch had replaced the `HostRowViewModel` that method needs with a four-field `ConnectionTarget`. Keeping both meant deciding what a manual connection does with a password that succeeded, and the answer was already written on the screen it is typed into: nothing. There is no item to bind a credential to and none to bind it on, and that path saves nothing by design. So `ConnectionTarget` carries the row again — as a nullable, in place of the host id it had, with `HostId` derived from it. Two things read it and both are things that can only be done to a keychain item rather than to an address: naming the log entry, and keeping the password. Null is not missing data there; it is the whole of what makes the manual path different, and having one field rather than two keeps "was this a keychain host" a question with one answer. The desktop's rail lost SFTP and S3 to the tab strip on main, so the README's "a rail with nine slots has room" was true when it was written this afternoon and is not now. It says the room rather than the number. Phase 11's four new device checks and main's Phase 12 on teams were the same conflict twice — two appends to the end of one file — and both are kept. Verified after resolving: the solution builds, the Android head builds clean, and 837 tests pass across the seven client suites, including main's own additions (233 shell, 79 layout, 240 domain, 118 sync, 54 session, 74 terminal, 39 storage). |

Make Connections the place a connection is made, and put the keychain away
Four changes to the phone, and the last one needed the connect path taking apart. **The bottom bar is three entries.** The keychain moved onto the hub, which is now SETTINGS with a gear rather than MORE with a hamburger. A bottom bar is for the places a session moves between, and keys, credentials and tags are managed occasionally and then left alone — which is the shape of everything already behind that hub. With the keychain on it, "more" stopped being a description of what is there. `ShellScreen.Vault` joining `IsMoreSurface` is the whole of the change: the tab that lights, the header that stands down and the back gesture's first case all read that one property, which is why the switch mirrors it by construction rather than by a second list. The keychain screen grew the header every hub screen has, because the shell's own is not above it any more and without one there would be no back arrow and nothing saying what the list is. The desktop keeps its Keychain rail entry. A rail with nine slots has room, so this is the second thing the two heads arrange deliberately differently, after the hub itself. **Terminal became Connections**, and the word does more work than a rename usually does — see below. The enum member stays `ShellSurface.Terminal`, for the reason the tab was never called Vault: the surface is a terminal, and the word a user reads is the product's. **The + puts the software keyboard away.** It sits above a terminal somebody is typing into, so the sheet it raises was arriving underneath a keyboard covering the half of the screen the sheet is on — and worse, laid out into the strip left above it, since the keyboard's inset shortens everything this head draws. Avalonia cannot do this and it is worth knowing why: `TopLevel.InputPane` reports the keyboard and offers nothing that closes one, because the framework's model is that it belongs to whatever has focus — and this keyboard was raised by the `WebView`'s own text input, by a native view Avalonia's focus manager never owned. Clearing Avalonia's focus leaves it exactly where it is. So `Platform/SoftKeyboard.cs` asks `InputMethodManager`, off the decor view's window token, and every step of it is allowed to be absent. **With nothing open, Connections is a connect screen rather than an empty state.** A box taking `user@host` or `user@host:port`, a password, and the machines most recently connected to underneath. The box is the only path in this product to a machine the keychain has never heard of, which is a real case it had no answer for: an address somebody was handed five minutes ago. A typed password and nothing else — offering the keychain's keys would be a second binding resolution beside `TryBuildAuthentication`, and the argument against a second one is written there at length. Nothing typed is saved, and the screen says so: a machine worth keeping belongs on HOSTS, where it can carry a key, a group's defaults and a name. The recents come out of the vault's own connection log rather than a list kept in this process, so they survive a restart and arrive on a new phone with the keychain. Deduplicated by address, because this is a list of places and not of events, and capped at six so the box stays above the keyboard. Emptied when the vault is — they are decrypted entries naming where somebody works, and a lock that left them on screen would be a list still readable after every key that decrypted it was zeroed. Tapping one leads to whichever of two things it is: a keychain host goes to that host's connect bar, where its key, its password box and its refusals already live, and an address goes back into the box, without the password, whose absence is the point of that path rather than a gap in it. **The connect path was shaped like `HostRowViewModel` all the way down.** The log entry, the identification, the failure record and the retry all took a row. They take a four-field `ConnectionTarget` now, so a connection to an address shares the ladder of refusals, the host-key question and the tab's lifecycle rather than growing a second copy of them. `ConnectionRecorder.Record` and `Identify` have always taken a nullable host id, so the log could already hold a connection with no item behind it. One behavioural change falls out of that and it is the one to know about: **trusting a host key now retries the attempt that raised the question** instead of re-running whichever host is selected. That was correct while a selected host was the only way to connect; with a manual target it would dial a different machine, or refuse with "choose a host first" over a key the user has just agreed to trust. The test selects a host first, so a regression cannot pass by connecting to the wrong thing successfully. `LogsViewModel.ReloadAsync` split so the connections half can be read alone. Reading the keychain's activity for a screen that offers neither would double the decryption on the list that was already the expensive one. Twelve tests: the parse grammar as a theory over seven refusals, the dialled request, the retry, and both branches of tapping a recent row. The recents rows are built by hand rather than connected-and-closed — what those tests are about is which branch a row takes, and driving it through the recorder's queue would test the recorder, which `DodoSSH.Client.Session.Tests` already does. What needs a device is phases 11.6 to 11.9 of `docs/manual-checks.md`. |

Merge main into the desktop redesign branch
Four conflicts. Three were two people adding to the same spot, and one was a real collision: main gave the connect bar a REMEMBER tick in the same pass that this branch took the connect bar off the hosts screen. REMEMBER is now in the drawer, beside the password box it qualifies. Nothing about the feature changed — RemembersConnectPassword, its refusal to fire until the remote has accepted the password, and the six tests over it are main's untouched — only where it is drawn. The move improves it slightly and it is worth saying why rather than claiming a merge was neutral: the bar had one row and had to fit the box, the tick, the authentication note and CONNECT along it, which is why the tick was a bare "REMEMBER" in tracked capitals. A column has room to put it under the box as a sentence, where it reads as a property of the password rather than as a fourth control in a row. MainWindowViewModel: both sides added members after ShowTerminal — the desktop's three fixed tabs here, the phone's connect menu on main. They do not interact, so both are kept, each under its own heading. TeamsScreen: main added the team's own RENAME, HAND OVER and ARCHIVE, a member's LastActive, the role a new member arrives as, and the KEY HOLDERS list. This branch had only bumped the file's font sizes a point. Resolved by taking main's file whole and re-running the bump over it, so the new controls join the scale rather than sitting a point below everything around them. README: both sides described a different head's third pass in the same paragraph. Both kept. Two things checked rather than assumed, because this branch moved the furniture the merged commits sit on. The chrome heights main's terminal work touched are the phone's, not the desktop's — 44, 42 and 24 are unchanged, so the layout harness's budget still describes the window. And main's keychain DELETE did not reach VaultScreen.axaml, whose header this branch rearranged, so the five buttons that overflowed at the larger type are still five. 2415 tests pass, up from 2369 by the 46 main brought. |

Move SFTP and S3 into the tab strip, and the host list into a card grid
Four asks in one pass over the desktop head, and two of them are furniture moving rather than anything new. THE STRIP IS THE WINDOW'S NOW, not the terminal's. Vaults, SFTP and S3 sit at its head and cannot be closed, and open terminals follow them. SFTP and S3 left the nav rail to get there, which is the one semantic change: they are the two destinations you stay in while something runs, and a rail entry is for somewhere you go and come back from. So the rail belongs to the Vaults tab and collapses with it, which also means SFTP, S3 and a terminal each get the full 1016 rather than the 826 a page gets. The tab is expressed as "a page, and not one of the two the strip took" rather than as a fourth ShellSurface. Both are still ShellScreen members and have to be — that is what they are on the phone, where they are two rows in a hub — so a surface each would have been a second way to say a thing Screen already says. IsTransfersShowing and IsBucketsShowing light the other two tabs unchanged. What is new is one field: the page Vaults comes back to, because it is the one tab with sub-navigation and therefore the one that can return to the wrong place. That is not the hidden field ShellSurface argues against — that one would be a second copy of "which page"; this is a tab remembering its own. THE HOSTS SCREEN IS A GRID, and the 268-pixel sidebar is gone. That column was choosing among forty machines and editing one of them at two-thirds width, and it was narrow so the editor beneath it could be a column at all. Cards took the first job at full width; a 304-pixel drawer took the second and collapses when nothing is selected. Pressing a group card narrows the grid; SHOW ALL is the way back. The group editor moved into the drawer as well, which finally makes IsEditingGroup mean the same thing on both heads — it was the phone's alone, because the desktop's editor was a bar that was always on screen. AreHostsExpanded and ToggleHosts went with the control that used them. They folded the whole list away under one heading, an affordance that existed because the column was narrow. Folding a single group is a different thing and is still here. THE TYPE SCALE IS A POINT LARGER and the text ramp is white. The base size was never stated anywhere — a bare TextBlock took TextElement's default of 12 — so raising the scale meant naming it, on Window and on UserControl. The second selector is not redundancy: the layout harness hosts a UserControl in a window it builds itself, and without it the suite would measure every screen a point smaller than it ships, silently. A selector on TextBlock would have been the obvious way and is wrong, because a style setter beats an inherited value and would collapse every deliberate step back to one number. #E3E7F4 is a blue-tinted white on blue-black surfaces, which costs contrast twice — once for being darker than white and once for sharing a hue with what it is drawn on. Pure white is 18.3:1 against the canvas where that was 15.5:1. Every step below moved with the top, so the intervals the design chose are kept and TextDim clears 9:1 against 6.4:1. The palette is shared, so the phone has both changes too. TWO DEFECTS THE HARNESS STRUCTURALLY CANNOT SEE, found by rendering the screen rather than by measuring it, and both now covered. The tile was 232 and was first written as 248, from arithmetic that left out the scrolling stack's own margins. Every layout test passed — the harness asks whether a control is inside the window, never how many fit on a line — so the grid quietly became one column wide at exactly the minimum this application guarantees, which is the shape cards exist to avoid. TheHostsGridKeepsTwoColumnsAtTheMinimumWithTheDrawerOpen counts columns instead, and fails at 248. And a card's text ran past its own border, because a horizontal StackPanel measures children with infinite width: a TextBlock inside one never learns it is short of room, so TextTrimming never fires. Both card rows are grids with a star column that gives way and an Auto column that does not — a hostname with its tail cut is still the machine you were looking for, where a badge or the word naming an auth method is not. The keychain header changed shape for the same class of reason. It was Auto,Auto,*,Auto with the buttons last, so the slack column was the only thing absorbing a change of width and five buttons fell off the right edge the moment the type grew. That is how GENERATE lost the word KEY once already. The summary sits in the star column and trims now, so the buttons always get their width. HostSidebarTests became HostGridTests and moved to the grid with the gestures it drives. docs/design-import-gaps.md gains a v3 section naming the five toolbar controls in the design with nothing behind them — a view-mode switch, a tag filter, a calendar, a share control and Serial — and manual-checks.md and the README follow the controls that moved. |

Merge main into the teams branch
Two conflicts, and both were two people counting the same things differently rather than disagreeing about what the code should do. PhoneShell's header comment. The branch made "the five hub screens" numberless, because TEAMS made it six and a number in that sentence had already gone stale once. Main corrected "three destinations" to "two" in the same sentence, because giving a shell the whole phone took the terminal out of the set the header is drawn on. Both are right and neither noticed the other: the header now stays on the hub's screens and on the two top-level destinations, which is Hosts and Keychain. The manual checks. Both sides appended a Phase 10 — main added the software keyboard and the phone's terminal surface as 10 and 11, the branch added Teams. Nothing about them overlaps, so the resolution is to keep all three in the order they were written and renumber Teams to Phase 12, its subsections and the one cross-reference inside 12.1 with it. Main's two phases keep the numbers they already carry in its history, since renumbering those would move headings somebody may already have linked to. Everything else merged without a conflict, and the two places worth checking afterwards both held: IsMoreSurface and the first case of PhoneShell.OnBackRequested each kept ShellScreen.Team alongside main's edits. Those two are one fact in two places, so a merge that dropped Team from either would have trapped the user on the teams screen with the MORE tab dark. Verified after resolving: solution builds with no errors and no new warnings, the Android head builds, and every suite passes — App 214, Layout 73, Api 162, Infrastructure 34, Contracts 25, Session 54. App gained the three shell-flow tests main brought with it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |
