jaap-jan	aa06868b1e	Add the member the directory cannot see, rather than inviting them ... ADD MEMBER quietly issued an invitation instead of adding anybody, for everyone who had signed in here and not yet enrolled. The screen told them that address had no account, the members list did not change, and the person only actually joined on the next hourly sweep. The client decided whether an address had an account by asking the public-key directory, and the directory answers a narrower question than that. It drops every account with no current key — deliberately, because an entry exists to be wrapped to and one carrying no key is a check a caller forgets exactly once. An account exists from its owner's first authenticated request and publishes nothing until they choose a passphrase on their own machine, so every account is missing from the directory for that whole window and some indefinitely. A miss there is not an absent account, and reading it as one was the bug. The server would have taken the add. TeamService.AddMemberAsync only requires the account row, and TeamMemberSummary.IsEnrolled exists precisely so a member with no key can be listed — added on Monday, enrolled on Tuesday. The client never asked. So the directory is still asked first and the miss is retried as an add by address, and only a server saying there is no such account reaches the invitation. AddTeamMemberRequest gained an Email used when UserId is empty. The lookup-first ordering is kept because it is load-bearing for sharing and not for this: the key verified before a vault key is wrapped is the one the lookup returned, and nothing is wrapped by adding somebody. That is why resolving the address server-side is safe here and would not be there. NoSuchAccount is its own code rather than folded into InvalidTeam, because it is the one add failure the caller can act on unprompted — there is nobody to add, so invite them — and a code shared with a rejected role would leave them guessing which had happened. It does answer whether an address has an account here, which CreateTeamInvitationRequest deliberately does not. That is the property traded for the fix; the exposure is bounded by the admin check the add already needed, and it is the same fact the member list shows a moment later. Adding by a user id that does not exist now answers 404 no-such-account rather than 400 invalid-team, and nothing depended on the old pairing. The two silent returns are gone. Offline and no-team-selected set nothing and returned, so those failures were visible only as a flicker of the busy flag — which reads as a button that does nothing at all. The success line reads the enrollment flag too, because pointing an unenrolled member at SHARE KEY is pointing at a button that will refuse; their row already says it holds no key. Why nothing caught it. FakeVaultServer had one list, so it could not tell an account that does not exist from one that exists and has not enrolled — the distinction this whole path turns on — and every account it knew was enrolled by construction. It grows an accounts list beside the directory and reports IsEnrolled from whether the directory has them, rather than hardcoding true. The regression test asserts Invitations is empty, which is what fails against the old behaviour. Four tests: that pair in the shell suite, and in the API suite an unenrolled account added by address after its own directory lookup comes back empty, and an unknown address refused under the new code. 1495 tests pass.	2026-08-03 17:04:03 +02:00

jaap-jan	a2c56de1f2	Read the selected team once per reload, so its owner is listed once ... Creating a team drew its owner twice. ReloadAsync rebuilds the team list and then reselects, and the selection handler answers that assignment by starting its own read of the members, invitations and vaults — while ReloadAsync is awaiting a read of exactly the same thing. Both clear the collections up front and both append when their round trip answers, so everything below the team list was drawn twice. On a team nobody has been added to yet, whose only member is its owner, that read as the owner being in the team twice. The rows are records, so the reselect only raises a change when something about the team has actually moved — which is every reload that follows a change: creating a team, adding a member, renaming one. A plain refresh looked fine, and the screen doubled precisely after the acts people come to this screen to perform. isReselecting suppresses the handler for the length of the assignment rather than deduplicating rows afterwards, because only one of the two reads is awaited. A command that reloads and then reads Members has to be looking at the reload's own read and not at a fire-and-forget one that may not have answered. The generation counter is the other half, and it is a different bug with the same cause: selecting a second team before the first has answered leaves two reads in flight against the same collections and nothing decides which wins, so team A's members could land in the list under team B's name. A superseded read now drops its answer instead of appending it. Why nothing caught this. The fake server answers from memory, so every read completes before the next begins and the appends can never interleave — the duplicate needs a round trip to hold two reads open at once. FakeVaultServer grows a MemberReadGate for that, and the new test holds a read open and counts the reads in flight, which is the only moment a second one is distinguishable from the first. It fails against the old behaviour with two. 237 tests pass in the app suite and 83 in the layout suite.	2026-08-03 16:26:52 +02:00
jaap-jan	e3dfe5c371	Make the host pane something you ask for, and draw it as cards ... THE DRAWER USED TO ARRIVE WITH THE SELECTION. IsDrawerOpen read "a host is selected", so touching any card took 304 pixels off the grid — including every card arrowed past on the way to the one somebody wanted. Choosing among forty machines was charged the price of the pane for one of them. A pencil now appears on the card under the pointer and on the selected card, and that is what opens it; IsHostPaneOpen is the flag, and the grid's context menu gained Details… so the pane is reachable without a pointer, which a hover-only control is not. Once open it follows the selection rather than pinning the host it was opened on: a pane about one host beside a grid marking a different one is two answers to the same question. Losing the selection closes it and clears the flag, or a filter matching nothing would leave the pane armed to spring open again on the next card merely selected — which is the behaviour the pencil exists to remove. The pencil is drawn over the card rather than in a column of its own. A column would have cost the name 30 pixels of a 232-pixel tile, permanently, for a control that is only there while the pointer is; the dot and the pencil stack in the two corners of that edge instead. IsVisible and not opacity, because a button at zero opacity still takes the click and the card underneath does not. A HEADER, A BODY THAT SCROLLS, AND A FOOTER, which is the one structural change in the pane. The header names what the drawer is about and carries the two things true of every panel; the footer carries the one thing each panel is for — CONNECT, or SAVE, or the question about deleting. Only the middle scrolls, so the button somebody came here to press can no longer be below the fold, which CONNECT could be on a host with fifteen tags. That also widens what the layout harness certifies: it skips anything inside a ScrollViewer, and the control each panel exists to offer is now outside one. THE SAME THREE CARDS TWICE. Address, General, Connection — first as rows stating what the host is, then as boxes for changing it. The detail pane's rows are buttons that open the editor: the design draws every fact as a filled box, and rather than draw an input that refuses the pointer, pressing one leads to the same card with a real box in it. Nothing here saves as you type, and that is not timidity — saving validates the key-or-credential exclusion and writes one encrypted payload, so a box committing per keystroke would be a save per character and a half-typed hostname on the wire. Every value the pane prints is the resolved one, and says "inherited" beside it where a group supplied it. The number is the same either way and the edit is not: clearing a group's default moves every host that never overrode it. A HOST CARD IS TWO LINES AND NO CHIPS. The subtitle is now "ssh, root, pci, eu-west-1" — the transport, the resolved account, then every tag — replacing both the user@host:port line and the wrapped row of tag chips under it. The address went to the card's tooltip rather than nowhere: a card is read while scanning forty machines, where the name and the kind of machine are what is being looked for, and an address is what you read once you have found it. "ssh" is a constant today and is printed anyway, which is the one thing here that argues with this codebase's own rule about constants dressed as readings. It is the first item of a list whose other items vary, and a list beginning with the account on one card and a tag on the next has no shape to scan. The remark on HostRowViewModel.Summary says so rather than leaving it to be discovered. WHAT THE DESIGN DRAWS AND THIS PANE HAS NOT GOT: Share this host, Add Telnet, "SSH ID, Certificate, FIDO2", the backspace-key mapping row, the vault picker's chevron and Show more. Sharing is per vault and not per item, every session here is an SSH channel, there are no identity or certificate item types, nothing carries a terminal setting to the renderer, and an item cannot be moved between vaults at all. Six controls with nothing behind them, listed in docs/design-import-gaps.md with what ships instead, and none drawn disabled. The credentials row is marked with ◆ rather than the ⚿ the nav rail uses for the keychain. U+26BF is outside both faces this application substitutes for the design's fonts, so it lands on whatever the platform's fallback has; every other glyph in the pane is from Geometric Shapes, which both carry.	2026-08-03 16:26:43 +02:00

jaap-jan	0c0ac94312	Open a group by double-clicking it, and say where you are ... ONE PRESS WAS DOING TWO JOBS. A group card was the only place a group could be selected — it is what EDIT and DELETE aim at — and it was also the control that narrowed the grid to that group. So there was no way to name a group in order to rename it without every host outside it leaving the screen at the same moment, and no way back except a SHOW ALL button that appeared beside the heading. Two gestures instead. A click selects and does nothing else; a double-click opens, which is what the host cards below already do to get a shell and what the transfers screen's directories already do to go inside one. The grid now has one vocabulary rather than one per list. The gesture is wired in the code-behind beside the host one, and guarded the same way: a double-click on the space around the cards must not open whichever group happened to be selected. THE CARDS ARE ONE LEVEL NOW, not every group in the keychain. Groups nest, and drawing all of them flat was the only honest thing to do while a card was a filter — a filter nobody can see is a filter nobody can turn off. Once opening one became navigation the cards became its contents, and VisibleGroups is that level beside Groups the way VisibleHosts sits beside Hosts. Groups itself is untouched: it is what every lookup reads and what the phone's headings are built from, and the phone binds none of the new members. Which is what the trail is for. A level with no name and no way out is a grid that has quietly hidden things, so a breadcrumb sits above the cards — drawn exactly as the transfers screen draws a directory path, same flat crumbs and same separator, because it is the same control answering the same question and a window with two breadcrumbs that look different has two ideas of what a path is. The first crumb is always there and always goes back to every host, which is what SHOW ALL was; that button went with it, because a control that only says "stop" beside a trail that says where you are is a second control for one job, and this one also gets you back one level rather than all the way. EDIT AND DELETE AIM AT GroupTarget: the selected card, or the open group when no card is selected. Without the fallback a group with nothing inside it could be opened and then never edited, because opening a group is exactly what takes its own card off the screen. It is also what a file manager does — act on the selection, and on the current folder when there is none — and the pair is now hidden with nothing to act on rather than shown doing nothing. A DANGLING PARENT AND A CYCLE BOTH HAD TO END UP SOMEWHERE REACHABLE. Neither is prevented: a parent id may point at a group deleted on another machine, and two clients can each re-parent A under B and B under A while offline, which no merge can see because the pointer is inside the payload. EffectiveParents promotes both to the outermost level, which is the same degradation the resolver's visited set produces for inheritance. The repair for either is the group's own editor and the editor is opened from its card, so a group drawn nowhere would be a broken state with the fix locked inside it. Three tests in HostGridTests: the split rule through the properties the cards bind, the pointer gesture itself in two windows so that "one press still only selects" is asserted separately from the pair, and a nested group opened, emptied of cards and walked back out of one level. The last presses the trail as it is actually rendered rather than calling the command, because a crumb reaches the vault through a $parent binding — a string that compiles whether or not it resolves, and would otherwise leave a row of buttons that do nothing. 85 layout tests and 234 shell-flow tests pass. Manual-checks 3.2, 7.6 and 7.7 follow the new gestures, and 3.2a and 3.4a are new: nesting, and the two states above, both of which need two machines and neither of which headless Avalonia can reach.	2026-08-03 16:16:18 +02:00
jaap-jan	38d8706784	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.	2026-08-03 16:12:50 +02:00

jaap-jan	61139bd469	Move the SFTP and S3 connection into the right-hand pane ... THE CONNECT BAR IS GONE. It was a 44-pixel strip across the top of the file screen holding a heading, a picker, a password box and a button — chrome spanning both panes in order to configure one of them, drawn at full width whether or not anything was ever going to be connected. Underneath it sat a pane that was empty for exactly the same reason, saying so in a sentence nobody had to be told twice. So the pane says it instead. Disconnected, the right-hand half is an invitation where the listing would be: what the screen is for, what pressing the button costs, and one thing to press. SELECT HOST opens the picker in place — the same combo, the same password box, the same CONNECT — and the sentence and the button go away with it, because by then they have been read or they have not. Two steps rather than a picker sitting open, and that is not decoration. The reason the pane is empty is the question, and a combo box in the middle of it is a form with no question above it. The two steps also keep the panel inside its budget, which is the pane's height less whatever the queue has taken — 268 pixels with three transfers on it. Neither shape reaches the floor, and the layout suite measures both. IsChoosingRemote is cleared by everything that changes what the picker would be picking: connecting, disconnecting, moving between the SFTP and S3 tabs, and losing the vault. The last two are the ones that would rot quietly — a picker surviving a hop to the other tab offers hosts on a screen showing buckets, and one surviving a lock offers a list that has just been emptied because its rows carried decrypted secrets. CANCEL takes the typed password with it, which is a secret nobody asked to keep. WHERE THE TWO CONNECTED FACTS WENT. The address chip and DISCONNECT are a strip of their own inside the remote pane, above the listing — not three more cells in the header beside UP, REFRESH and DELETE. That pane is 381 pixels wide at the window's minimum and a fourth control in that row would have pushed one of the three off the edge; the number is written into the markup so the next thing added to either row is measured against it rather than tried. The status line did not fit there either. What is left after a 170-pixel address and a DISCONNECT is about eighty pixels, which turns every sentence into its first word and an ellipsis, so while a session is open it is in the queue's own strip at the foot of the screen, which spans the window. The other half of the time it is inside the invitation, beside the button that provoked it. One home in each state rather than two homes in one and none in the other. The header label reads HOST or BUCKET now, which is the only thing on the screen naming the kind — the bar that printed SFTP or S3 is gone and the tab in the strip says it either way, whether or not this screen is showing. The opening status text was "Choose a host and connect to browse its files", which the invitation now says in a heading, a sentence and a button. It is "Nothing is open yet.": a state rather than an instruction. That string is shared with the phone, where it still reads correctly under the picker card that head shows directly. Desktop only, and the phone is unchanged rather than merely untouched. Its FilesScreen is one pane at a time, so the picker *is* what it shows before a connection exists; it binds none of the new members. Four tests. Three in the layout suite — the picker open over a full queue, which is the tall shape and the one that has to be measured with the panes at their least; the bucket picker, which is a row shorter because an object store has nothing to type; and a session open with a long enough address to prove the chip gives way before DISCONNECT does. The fourth is the picker's lifecycle in ShellFlowTests, over all four things that put it away. 302 tests pass across the two suites.	2026-08-03 15:50:31 +02:00

jaap-jan	f9d08b738c	Take the group headings out of the host grid, and drop onto a group card ... A first group turned the wrap of host cards into an accordion: SidebarRows interleaves a full-width fold-away heading — chevron, name, count — between the cards, and in a grid that reads as a dropdown somebody left open. The desktop grid binds VisibleHosts now. The headings and the fold stay for the phone, whose list has no room for the row of group cards the desktop draws above the grid. What a heading said, the card says: HostRowViewModel.GroupLabel, resolved once per reload like the tag names, drawn as an accent chip and absent from a host in no group — or in one that has been deleted, which is the same thing to look at. What a heading also was is the drop target, and that moves to the group cards. Two things go with it. A host dropped onto another host card used to be filed beside it, which was legible while a heading named the band of cards it landed in and is guesswork now; it is refused. And UNGROUPED was how a host was dragged back out of a group; the way out is the picker in its own editor, which is the one place "no group" can be said in words. A drag held at either edge of the grid scrolls it. Without that the gesture only works for whoever can see both ends of it: the group cards are the first thing in the scroller, the host may be the fortieth card down, and a drag cannot use the wheel. A step per drag event rather than a timer, so it follows the pointer and stops when it stops. The two heading-shaped tests are replaced. TheHostsGridHoldsCardsAndNoGroupHeadings asserts the grid's contents rather than only measuring them, because a heading that came back would lay out perfectly cleanly. TheGroupCardsAreWhatAcceptsADroppedHost raises a real DragOver over both kinds of card and checks the effects and the mark — the nearest a headless test gets to a gesture no headless test can synthesise. manual-checks 3.1-3.2 and 7.6-7.9 follow.	2026-08-03 15:49:58 +02:00
jaap-jan	562fb444a8	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).	2026-08-03 15:35:49 +02:00
jaap-jan	f5ffd1983d	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`.	2026-08-03 15:26:47 +02:00
jaap-jan	1b7df47537	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.	2026-08-03 15:17:55 +02:00
jaap-jan	208443b932	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.	2026-08-03 15:08:48 +02:00

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	7e4e068aab	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>	2026-08-03 14:40:27 +02:00
jaap-jan	b86ff6158b	Keep the password that just worked, so the host stops asking for it ... The vault has held credentials and host bindings since they landed, and the only route from a typed password into one ran through two screens: add a password under Keychain, open the host, bind it. The password box's own tooltip instructed people to do exactly that by hand — which means typing the secret a second time, into a screen that has no idea which host it is for, while the screen that does have the password is the one being left behind. A tick beside the box does it in one step. What it produces is an ordinary CredentialSecret, named after the host, bound through CredentialId with AsksForPassword cleared beside it. That is the whole reason nothing else here had to change: it syncs, it merges, it appears in the keychain, it can be renamed and deleted, and it can be bound to the other nineteen machines that share the account. A password field on HostSecret would have been a payload schema bump, a fourth place a secret lives, and a copy per host to rotate and forget. It waits for a handshake the remote accepted, and that is not caution for its own sake. Binding on the keystroke would store whatever was in the box — including the typo about to be refused — and the host would then stop asking, leaving a machine nobody can connect to until they work out that the keychain is where the wrong password now lives. For the same reason the password is read from the credential as dialled rather than from the box, which stays typeable throughout a handshake. Off by default, because the typed box exists precisely for the passwords that should not be in a synchronised vault — a one-off on a machine somebody will never open again. The credential is written into the host's own vault rather than the active one: in the personal vault, bound to a team's host, it would be a binding every other member can see and none of them can resolve. One thing is given up knowingly. The confirmation naming where the password went is replaced a moment later by the auto-sync's own count, exactly as SaveHostAsync's "Saved 'x'" is; this follows that rather than becoming the one write that suppresses a sync line. The feedback that lasts is the row answering "credential" and the box disappearing — which is also the only way to store a password on the phone at all, since that head lists credentials but has never had an editor to create one in.	2026-08-03 14:40:25 +02:00

jaap-jan	80ae586fc4	Give a shell the whole phone, and one bar to leave it by ... A connected phone was drawing five rows of chrome around the thing the user opened it for. The vault header at 56, the terminal's own tab strip at 52, a connection line at 36, the shells strip at 46 and the four-entry bottom bar at 64: at 360dp that is about a third of the display, and every row of it was about somewhere the user was not. What replaces them is one 52-pixel bar drawn by the surface itself — back on the left, the session pills, and a `+` across from them — and then the terminal. Three of those rows belong to `PhoneShell` and each is now bound on `IsShowingPages`. That is the same question asked once rather than three conditions that could drift: the surface is either a page or a terminal, and these are the chrome a page has. The header needed a wrapper because Avalonia's bindings have no "and" and it already had a condition of its own; the strip needed one for the same reason. The bottom bar had none and is bound directly. The back arrow goes to the page the terminal was opened over rather than to Hosts by name, because the system back gesture already picks that and an arrow landing somewhere else would be the second of two answers to one question. The bar's `+` raises a sheet offering the three connections this application can make — a shell, a host's files over SFTP, a bucket — since SFTP and S3 used to be two taps through the bottom bar's MORE and the bar is not on screen here. A control that replaced it and led to one of the three would have quietly removed the other two. Two things moved rather than being dropped. The text-size buttons are pinned at the right-hand end of the accessory key row, outside its scroller: the connection line existed to keep them from scrolling out of reach, and being outside the scroller answers that argument rather than abandoning it. The dialled address moved onto the connecting card, which is the moment it is worth reading — what is being connected to, before anything has answered — and after that the shell's own prompt says it more accurately than a header derived from the keychain ever did. The sheet collapses the renderer rather than covering it. Whether Android's `WebView` composites above Avalonia content the way Win32's child window does is still unverified — `docs/android-port.md` has said so since the port — so this follows the desktop's palette and gives up the rectangle outright, which is correct under either answer. It collapses `IsTerminalShowing` and not `IsTerminalSurface`, because the bar the sheet was raised from is part of that surface and dropping it would take the bar, the tabs and the whole arrangement with it, leaving the sheet floating over the page underneath. `OnSurfaceChanged` is the one place the flag is lowered, and that is the load- bearing half. Every way out of a terminal ends there — a destination, the files screen, the palette connecting to a host, closing the last tab, a lock — and each of them would otherwise leave a sheet set over a page. Not merely untidy: the flag holds the renderer blank, so the next return to the terminal would draw the menu again over a rectangle kept blank by it. Opening is refused off the terminal surface for the same reason from the other direction. The back gesture gains a guard above the switch, in the shape of the editor guard that arrived with the phone's `+`. It is nearer than any of them: with no header and no bottom bar, while the menu is up that gesture is the only way off it other than the scrim and CANCEL. The bottom bar's Terminal entry lost its `IsCurrent` binding. The bar is collapsed on that surface, so the binding could only ever be read as false, and a rule about a state the control cannot be in is a claim that it can. Three tests in `ShellFlowTests`, which is where shared state-machine behaviour for this head goes: the collapse and its recovery, the refusal to open over a page, and the sheet lowering both by a menu entry and by a route it was never wired to. Everything visual needs a device, so it is phase 11 of `docs/manual-checks.md` — and 11.2 is the check that would finally settle the compositing question this head has carried as unverified since the port.	2026-08-03 14:33:16 +02:00
jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	a43286ece8	Let a team change hands, and be joined by somebody with no account yet ... M3 built teams and stopped short of the two operations that decide who controls one. Both were written down as refusals rather than omissions: ADR 0009 listed ownership transfer under "deliberately not built", and design-import-gaps said an invitation needed "a token with a lifetime and an outbound mail path". One of those reasons had expired and the other never applied — an invitation does not need a token if it is not a thing anybody presents. Handing a team over is one write. The member you name becomes owner and you become an admin, in a single transaction, because ownership is sole: promoting first leaves the team owned twice, demoting first leaves it owned by nobody, and there is nobody left with the authority to finish a transfer that stopped in the middle. That is also why it is not two calls to the role endpoint, which refuses Owner outright. The outgoing owner is demoted rather than removed — removing them would revoke their vault key grants and flag every team vault for rekey, which is a far larger act than the one asked for, and somebody handing over a team is usually staying in it. It unblocks the thing that was impossible before: an owner can now leave, by handing the team on first. An invitation is a standing instruction rather than a message. This server has no outbound mail path, so nothing is sent and there is nothing for the invitee to present. The row says the next account signing in with that address joins this team at this role, and telling them to sign in is the caller's job over a channel this server does not carry. A link nobody can deliver would be worse than none. It lives in its own table rather than becoming a membership with MembershipStatus.Invited, and that member stays unwritten for the reason it always was: team_membership.user_id is not nullable and carries a foreign key, so somebody who has never signed in has nothing for that row to point at. Widening it would make the unique index on (team, user) meaningless, because PostgreSQL counts every NULL as distinct. Verification is the security boundary, and nothing in this server read it before. A claim requires the access token to assert email_verified. An invitation decides what the server will serve, so one claimable by anybody able to obtain a token carrying somebody else's address is a way into a team — which is precisely the attack OidcOptions.AllowEmailLinking exists to refuse, and it would have been reintroduced by the back door. There is deliberately no setting that relaxes it: a flag that exists is one somebody turns on for the afternoon their provider is misconfigured. Absence is refused rather than trusted, and logged, because a provider that never sends the claim otherwise leaves every invitation pending with nothing anywhere saying why. Claiming happens at just-in-time provisioning and again on an hourly sweep. The sweep is what makes it recoverable rather than one-shot — an invitation issued between an account being created and that person next signing in would otherwise be stranded for ever — and it shares its rate with the last-seen write because both are housekeeping nobody is waiting on. Archiving is refused while a team owns a vault, and that refusal is the end of the road rather than a step on it. A team vault is readable because of membership, so archiving one that still owned vaults would take them away from everybody holding a key, including the caller, quietly and all at once. Nothing in this product deletes a vault, so no order of operations gets past it today — which is stated with a count of what is in the way, for the reason the SFTP layer refuses a recursive delete: a refusal is visible and a quiet removal is not. It is owner-only, as handing over is; renaming is not, because a rename is visible to everybody and reversible by anybody who can do it. The slug is not renameable at all: it is unique only among live teams, so a rename could take one an archived team is still holding, and that team could then never be restored. LAST ACTIVE is real and coarse on purpose. UserAccount.LastSeenAtUtc is refreshed on ordinary authenticated requests, at most once per account per hour, through ExecuteUpdateAsync — user_account carries the xmin concurrency token, so a read-then-write on the hot path would start losing races between one user's own overlapping requests. An hour is the granularity the question is actually asked at, and the interface draws it to the day rather than the minute so it does not read as a precision that is not there. The remarks in Contracts and in the view model that argued at length for the column's absence are rewritten rather than extended; both had become false. Two endpoints already existed and nothing called them. ChangeTeamMemberRole and ListVaultGrants have been reachable since M3. The role picker refuses Owner itself rather than letting the server do it, since the interface already knew the rule; the key-holder list sits under the vault rather than beside the member, because a grant is per vault and a count on a member row would imply per-item sharing, which is M5. It lists withdrawn and stale grants and says which they are — a list that dropped them would show a departed colleague as merely absent rather than as somebody whose key was taken away — and staleness is decided by comparing generations, since a grant can be Active and still open nothing. ADD MEMBER stopped being a dead end. An address the directory did not know used to end at a sentence telling the user their colleague had to sign in first. It invites them instead, from the same button, because which of the two applies is a fact about the server's account table rather than about what the user is doing; which one happened is reported afterwards, because that decides what they do next. An address that merely has an account is invited rather than refused: refusing would have made the endpoint an oracle for which addresses have accounts here, answerable by anybody willing to create a team first. The phone has a TEAMS screen, behind MORE, and it is the reverse of every other row in design-import-gaps: a shipped screen the design had no slot for. It is there because an invitation is claimed by signing in, so somebody told they are now in a team is at least as likely to be holding a phone — and a membership visible only on a head they never installed is one they cannot see. It draws SHARE KEY and nothing that takes something away: wrapping a key is the one act on that screen a server cannot perform at all, and the desktop guards its revocations with a tooltip, which is a control a touch screen cannot show. Two defects were found by an adversarial pass and both were green against the whole suite at the time. The owner-only check on archiving and handing over had been weakened to the admin check while their messages and comments still said owner — and since nothing behind the archive endpoint re-checks it, an admin the owner had promoted could have archived the team out from under them. And the rename endpoint built its response with a hardcoded Owner role, so an admin who renamed a team was handed a summary claiming they owned it, and a client trusting that instead of re-listing would have offered them the two owner-only buttons the server then refuses. The new table gets its constraints tested rather than merely migrated: live uniqueness per (team, address), the citext proof that an address typed by a person matches one cased by a provider, and reissue after both revocation and acceptance. The teams screen gets its first entries in the layout suite, at the minimum window with every list populated and with each of the two states that cover half of it — it had none, and it just grew four sections and a second line in the member row.

jaap-jan	6fe2b21781	Point every build at the hosted server, not just the ones that ship ... The default was split on DEBUG so a clone would offer localhost and only an installed build would offer ssh.dodotech.cloud. That protected development launches from enrolling a device against production. It also meant the address in the box depended on how the binary was built, which is not what was wanted. Working against a local API now means typing http://localhost:5233 by hand.	2026-08-03 14:27:01 +02:00
jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	16e0051e89	Draw the tags that have been storable and invisible since the domain landed ... `Tag` has been a full item kind for three commits — a table, a migration, a codec, a merge, a cipher — and `HostSecret.TagIds` has merged per tag so two people tagging one host both keep theirs. Nothing drew a chip. The tags a client could store were ones nothing here could see. Chips on host rows, both heads, from names resolved through the tag list rather than ids: a tag that does not resolve is left out rather than drawn, because it means the tag was deleted elsewhere or belongs to a vault this session cannot read, and a host with one chip fewer is the honest answer where a host wearing a GUID is not. The id stays on the host, so the chip comes back if the tag does. The picker is chips that toggle, matching the chips on the row behind it. A list of names to tick would make the user match an entry to a chip they can see two inches away. The box under it creates a tag and puts it on straight away, because that is when a tag is usually wanted — while tagging a host and finding it does not exist yet. Unlike every other field in that editor it writes to the keychain immediately, since a host can only name an id that exists; cancelling therefore leaves the tag behind, which is honest rather than hidden. A name that already exists is used rather than repeated: two tags called "staging" are storable and must stay storable, because two people creating one offline is how it happens, but typing it into a box beside a chip of the same name is a slip. Renaming and deleting needed a home, or the picker fills with names nobody uses and never empties. That home is a TAGS category on the keychain screen, where every other item kind is managed — and renaming is the whole reason a tag is an item rather than a string repeated inside twenty payloads: it is one write, and no host is touched. The delete confirmation counts the hosts wearing it, which is the difference between a tidy-up and losing a filter somebody relies on. The desktop host editor now scrolls, and that is not a tidy-up. A picker's height is a chip per tag in the keychain, wrapped, so somebody with fifteen tags has an editor half again as tall as somebody with three; no fixed height holds that, and trimming other fields to buy room only moves the failure to whoever has sixteen. The layout suite caught it the moment its seeder grew tags — which is why the seeder now creates ten rather than three, enough to drive the pane onto its cap so the capped shape is what gets measured rather than one no real keychain produces. The cost is named where it is paid: the harness skips anything inside a ScrollViewer, so from here it certifies that pane fits the column rather than that every field in it does. Two smaller things fell out. Five buttons overflowed the keychain header by a few pixels, so GENERATE lost the word KEY — its tooltip carries what the word did. And TotalItemCount had been counting keys and credentials while ALL showed four kinds; it counts all five now, because a number under a chip that disagrees with the rows it opens is worse than no number. An adversarial review of this change found two defects it had introduced, both green against the full suite. NewTag filed into the "new items go to" picker while the tag list only ever holds the active vault's — so with a team vault selected a tag would be created, queued for push, reported as added, and then invisible, with no row, no count, no picker entry and nothing able to rename or delete it, because there is no active-vault switcher to go and find it with. The comment on the host editor's own create path states that exact rule; this was the one place that broke it, and NewObjectStore, whose list is likewise active-vault-only, already ignored the picker. And the tag editor was the only one of five that did not disarm a pending deletion when it opened, so arming a key's deletion and then pressing + TAG left a live DELETE for an item the user was no longer looking at, directly above the boxes they were typing into. Both are fixed, both have a test, and the first was checked against the broken version before being kept. The same review caught a doc comment that had been inserted between SnippetRowViewModel's summary and its declaration, silently taking it over. Verified by the whole suite on a clean build: 1413 tests over nineteen projects, none failing. Both heads build. The rectangles the layout suite cannot reach are phase 9 of docs/manual-checks.md.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	4925dcf179	Give the phone the + it was promised, and the editors behind it ... Steps 5 and 6 of docs/adding-hosts-on-the-phone.md, which finishes it. The phone can now put things in a keychain rather than only read one. The floating + arrives three designs after it was first asked for. It was refused twice on the honest grounds that it would open an editor this head had not got — and that stopped being true when steps 1 to 4 landed. It raises a sheet rather than a form, because "add" on this screen has been two operations since groups existed: a host, or a group to file hosts under. Both editors are cards in the list's own row, swapped for the list rather than stacked over it, following SnippetsScreen and for the reason written there: a form on top of the list hides what it is about. There is still no dialog and no editor screen anywhere on this head. The port and username boxes may be left empty, and the greyed text inside each is what the host will actually use — following the group picker as it moves, so the form says what leaving a box blank will do rather than making it a guess. The back gesture gains a guard above the switch rather than a case inside it. An editor is not a screen and has no entry there, and it is strictly nearer: the sheet sits over the editor's own screen, so back lowers whatever is topmost before it considers moving between screens. A group editor needs a way in, and the phone draws no groups panel — so the heading in the host list gains a pencil. A + that adds groups with no way to correct one is the same strange thing to ship as one that adds hosts with no way to correct one, and worse: a group's defaults are what every host beneath it falls back to. Scouting step 6 turned up a bug worth more than the prose it was looking for. ReloadGroupsAsync read the active vault alone, which was a cosmetic limitation while a group carried only a name — a teammate's host showed under UNGROUPED and nothing else was lost. Since a group began lending a port, a username and a binding, the same omission silently dropped all three: that host would dial 22 as nobody while the machine is on 2222 as deploy, with nothing on screen saying why. The resolution map now spans every readable vault. The editable list stays narrow, because a row shown across vaults needs a vault id for rename and delete and two vaults may hold groups with one name — but the map needs none of that, since it is only ever asked what an id says. An adversarial review of this change found something I had written a comment denying. The + was a child of the outer Panel rather than of the list's row, so it anchored to the bottom of the screen and sat squarely over the new EDIT button and the lower edge of CONNECT — and because a Panel hit-tests its last-declared child first, tapping the right end of EDIT would have raised the add sheet. The comment beside it claimed it was in the list's row precisely so that could not happen, and manual-checks 8.1 names that exact failure. It is in Grid.Row 2 now. The same pass caught a connect bar that was disabled rather than hidden while its own comment said hidden, a scrim that would have flashed its default pressed chrome across the screen, a fab comment claiming an accent fill no other button had when Button.primary has it, and a back-gesture remark naming two view-model properties that do not exist anywhere in the repo. That last one came from this plan, which invented IsVaultsSurface and IsConnectionsSurface, and pointed step 6 at a ConnectionsScreen.axaml that has never existed. Both are corrected in the plan rather than quietly worked around, along with a fourth "groups are flat" site in README.md that step 1 missed. The phone's rectangles are not measurable and structurally never will be: the layout suite is net10.0, the Android head is net10.0-android, and Avalonia's application is a one-shot process global — so a second head cannot share the process even if the reference were possible. Everything the sheet and both editors bind to is shared and is tested headlessly here; the pixels go to docs/manual-checks.md phase 8, nine checks, which is where this project already sends what it cannot assert. Tags remain the one thing asked for that did not ship. Tag is a full item kind and TagIds merges, encodes and resolves, but no screen draws a chip or offers to add one, so the tags a client can store are ones nothing here can see. Both editors carry the set through a save untouched so a client that can set them does not lose them. Recorded as half-shipped in docs/design-import-gaps.md rather than quietly left out. Verified by the whole suite: 1402 tests over nineteen projects, none failing. Both heads build. Nothing seen on a display — phase 8 is what that costs.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	b7335743d9	Make a host take what its group lends it, everywhere it is read ... Step 4 of docs/adding-hosts-on-the-phone.md. The domain could resolve a host against its groups; nothing asked it to. This is the wiring, and it is mostly one change repeated: read the resolved host, not the stored one. TryBuildAuthentication and TryBuildConnectionRequest now take the resolved value beside the stored one, which is where group context was being lost. It is the only authentication resolution in the product — both heads and both transports come through it — so a host inheriting its binding would otherwise have been offered a password prompt on every screen at once. The credential-username fallback becomes three levels, and Complete still refuses an empty username, but now only after the chain has been walked; refusing before it would refuse exactly the hosts inheritance exists to serve. HostRowViewModel carries its ResolvedHost, resolved once when the list is built. Address, Authentication and Dialled read it, so a row cannot disagree with itself about what it dials — and MainWindowViewModel.Rank searches Address, so a host inheriting 2222 that displayed 22 would have been unfindable by the port it actually answers on. HostsBoundTo counts over the resolved binding, which is the difference between a warning and a silence: a key bound once on a group and inherited by twenty hosts named nobody, would have been deleted, and would then have refused all twenty at connect time. HostFields.From is answered by a refusal rather than by threading a group list through the sync engine. A relay host may not inherit its port. The reason is stronger than the convenience: a plaintext column is a derived duplicate the client supplies when it pushes *this* host, so an inherited port would make it depend on another item — editing a group would change what the relay dials for every host beneath it, except that nothing re-pushes those hosts, so the server would keep dialling the old port until each was next touched for some unrelated reason. A stale wire on the relay path connects the user to the wrong service. The editor distinguishes unset from explicit in both directions. An empty port box means "take the group's" and shows what that will be as a placeholder, following the group picker as it moves — a pre-filled 2222 would have been indistinguishable from one the user typed, and saving would have pinned it. The authentication picker gains a fourth entry, offered only to a host in a group, because for an ungrouped host it would behave exactly like the first. Which found a real defect while the tests were being written. Filing an ungrouped host into a group silently pinned it to a typed password: the picker had no "Inherit" entry when it opened, so it sat on "Password (ask each time)", and saving wrote that as a decision — the host would have been pinned to a prompt nobody asked for and the group's key would never have reached it. Two guards now: the picker is rebuilt when the group changes, and BuildHost writes AsksForPassword only for a host that had the alternative on offer. The group editor is here too, and the plan never assigned it a step. Without it no group can carry a default, so every line above would have been unreachable. It grows a parent picker that leaves out the group itself and everything beneath it — a courtesy rather than the guarantee, since a cycle assembled from two offline re-parents was never offered that list — and three defaults beside the name, each of which may be left empty because "lend nothing" is an answer. Tags are stored and not editable. TagIds merges, encodes and resolves; no screen can set one yet, and the editor carries the set through a save untouched so a client that can set them does not lose them to somebody editing a port. Eight new tests, and they dial. That is the point of them: a resolved value that never reaches SshConnectionRequest is a label, and every one of these failures would be silent — a host connecting to the wrong port, or being asked for a password it does not need, with nothing on screen admitting it. Verified by the whole suite: 1390 tests over nineteen projects, none failing. Both heads build. Nothing on the phone has changed.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	8c04ba60b0	Build the three things the phone's + needs, before the + exists ... Steps 1 to 3 of docs/adding-hosts-on-the-phone.md: the domain half. Nothing on either head has changed, which is deliberate — the plan orders these first because everything the editors will bind to has to exist and be merge-safe before a screen can offer it. HostGroupSecret gains a parent and four defaults, and the codec gains the version rule it never had. It stamped CurrentSchemaVersion unconditionally, which was harmless with one field and one version and stops being harmless here: upgrading one machine and renaming any group would have made that group uneditable on every machine still on the old build. It now emits the lowest version that loses nothing, so a flat group with no defaults still encodes at version 1, byte for byte, pinned against a literal. Tags become a real item over the reserved slot. Secret, codec, merge, cipher, repository, both registries, the EF entity and a generated AddTagItem migration. TagCipher names AadResourceType.Tag as a constant rather than casting the wire type, because Tag is 5 on the wire and 8 in the crypto enum and 5 there is Credential — a cast would seal every tag under the resource type for a password, encrypt and decrypt perfectly on the machine that wrote it, and only fail when another implementation refused the item, by which time the AAD is frozen into stored ciphertext. HostTag stays reserved and unused: the one thing the join buys over a set on the host is bought instead by merging TagIds per id. HostSecret grows TagIds and Port goes nullable, which is the change with the widest blast radius and the only one that loses an item rather than locking one. A host with no port of its own omits the property, an older build reads int Port as 0, and TryValidate refuses it — unreadable rather than read-only. That cost is confined to hosts which actually inherit, because the version is a maximum over the fields present; the alternative, writing 22 into every host, is the lie inheritance exists to stop telling. One decision the plan did not specify. "Three states where there were two" is four — key, credential, typed password, or the group's answer — and two nullable ids carry three. Naming neither id now means inherit, so AsksForPassword says "a typed password even under a group that lends a key" out loud. Only true is ever written and a decoded false folds back to null, so a host that never touched it encodes as it always did. Nothing already stored changed meaning: no group could lend a binding before this build, so every existing host resolves exactly as it did. HostInheritance is the resolver, and its visited set is load-bearing rather than defensive. Two clients can each re-parent A under B and B under A while offline; the merge sees one item against one item and the server sees ciphertext, so nothing upstream can refuse the pair. With inheritance the chain is walked at connect time, so an unguarded cycle is not an undrawable sidebar — it is a shell that never opens. Stopping at the first repeat degrades it to a group that reads as a root, and clearing the parent is the repair. A tag set turns out to be the one field on a host that can never ask the user anything. TagSet.ToIdMap keys by the value, so no key can hold two values, so the both-sides-moved-differently branch of the keyed merge is unreachable — asserted over the whole eight-row matrix. The conflict loop is kept anyway, because that proof is one edit from ceasing to hold and what it would cause is a discarded tag nothing records. Three guard tests failed by design and were fixed rather than relaxed: the ordered pull filter, the AAD pinning table, and the server's refusal of a plaintext parent — that last one survives with its reason rewritten, because the refusal now means "the parent is not the server's to hold" rather than "there is no such thing as a parent". The prose that said groups are flat is rewritten in all four places it appeared, not deleted. The five view-model sites that read Port directly now go through the resolver, which is a down payment on step 4 rather than the whole of it. HostFields.From still emits the stored port, and that is the one remaining place where an unresolved read would be a wrong wire rather than a wrong label. Verified by the whole suite: 1382 tests over nineteen projects, none failing. Both heads build. Nothing seen on a display, because nothing on a display has changed yet.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	3627021420	Give the desktop the second design too, and the window the size it now needs ... The desktop v2 design is the other half of the one the phone took last commit, and this is its chrome: a 190-pixel labelled sidebar where the 54-pixel icon rail was, a titlebar with the search box centred in it, and session tabs drawn as pills. The palette was already here — it is shared, and moved when the phone's did — so what this changes is shape rather than colour. **The window's minimum grew, and by exactly what v2 added.** The sidebar is 136 wider and the chrome 14 taller, so 880x560 became 1016x574. That is not a round number somebody liked: it leaves every screen the same 826x464 it was designed against, which is the arithmetic the layout suite is built on. Four of the tables stop fitting at 690 wide, so widening the sidebar and leaving the window alone would have broken them somewhere no test was looking. LayoutHarness carries the new constants and the suite still passes at the minimum, which is the whole reason it exists. The rail's five-character abbreviations are gone with the width that caused them — PINS and SNIPS are Pins and Snippets again — and each row gains a glyph and a count. A count is drawn only where one is real, so SFTP, Logs and Preferences show nothing rather than a zero: a transfer queue's depth is not how many files a screen holds, and a log has no total until it is read. The count beside Pins is the vault's own, not the Pins screen's VisiblePins, which is the filtered list and would have made the sidebar count whatever somebody had just typed into a filter box on another screen. Teams has no count for a related reason: they are read from the server when that screen is opened rather than on unlock, so a number there would read 0 until somebody had already been to look. One colour moved with it, finishing what the repalette started: the live-session summaries on the unlock and sign-out cards were Info, so the two heads disagreed about a fact the phone paints green. They match again. **Buckets became a destination rather than a mode**, which is what the design draws and what the phone already does. The HOST / BUCKET pair inside the files screen is gone; ShellScreen.Buckets draws the same TransfersScreen with the other picker, and the sidebar entry is what sets it. That also settles an old disagreement rather than merely moving it: TotalItemCount is keys plus passwords and excludes buckets, so the number beside the keychain used to disagree with the list under it, and now counts what that screen shows. There is one session behind both file destinations, so asking for the other kind while something is open is refused rather than obeyed — and refusing means staying put. An earlier turn of this had it move anyway and only decline to switch the picker, which put the S3 entry in the sidebar over a screen still listing an SFTP host: two pieces of chrome disagreeing about where you are, which is worse than the navigation simply not happening. The message that says so goes to Transfers.Status, which turned out to be drawn in the same grid cell as the connected chip — survivable while it was mostly read before connecting, and not once a refusal reports itself there. It has its own column now. The design has nine entries' worth of screens and draws five. Pins, Teams, Import and Preferences are built, working screens, so they keep their entries — the sidebar is labelled now and has the room, and dropping an entry would have stranded a screen rather than simplified anything. The Team vault card the design pins to the foot is not drawn: it is a second route to a screen already in the list, carrying a seat count nothing here produces. **The status bar survives the design that deletes it**, cut down to one thing. Two of the three facts it carried moved into the titlebar with v2 — the sync word is beside its dot and the shortcut hint is inside the box that uses it — so those are gone from it rather than printed twice. The third is Vault.Status, the only channel this application has for saying a save failed or a merge picked a winner. The design is a mock-up of an afternoon that goes well and has nowhere to put a sentence like that; dropping the bar would have meant dropping the sentence or repeating it on nine screens. What v2 draws and this does not is in docs/design-import-gaps.md, and it is the same list as the phone's for the same reasons: the forwarding screen and both its chips, the host detail's fingerprint, tags and last-session cards, the keychain's rotate button, the logs' FOLLOW pill and severity filters, and the session footer's latency. The terminal is not inset behind a rounded frame either — it is a native child window that composites above everything Avalonia paints, so the frame would clip nothing, which is the same answer the phone gave. **The light theme is not built.** Its accent is #6D5AE6, a different hue rather than a tint of the dark one, so it needs every colour doubled, a variant to switch on, the renderer's own page switching with it, and contrast checked twice. That is a piece of work rather than a setting, and it is separable from the layout — which is why this commit is the layout. The screens themselves are restyled through the shared vocabulary rather than rebuilt: corner radii, chips, cards and the accent's ink, all in App.axaml, so every screen moves at once. Their layouts are left alone deliberately. The design draws read-only detail panes and these screens carry the editors and forms it has no equivalent of, so replacing a layout with the mock-up's would have lost the half that is actually used. Verified by the whole suite: 1309 tests over nineteen projects, none failing, including the 68 layout cases that stand up real Avalonia and measure every screen at the new minimum. Both heads build. Not run on a machine with a display — see docs/manual-checks.md for what wants looking at.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	5593f337b6	Give the phone the second design, and both heads the palette it arrives with ... The Android v2 design is what this head draws now: four destinations in a bottom bar — Hosts, Terminal, Keychain, More — with snippets, SFTP, S3, logs and preferences one tap deeper behind the last. The first design's four had nothing behind them, which is what made a hub worth building. The palette moved from green-black to blue-black, and it moved in the shared project because that is where it lives and the desktop v2 specifies the same seventeen tokens. One colour changed meaning rather than value, and it is the only semantic change in the file. Green used to *be* the accent, so Ellipse.dot.live filled with Accent and "the thing to press" and "a shell is open on this host" were the same colour by construction. v2 makes the accent blue and keeps a green for status alone, which finally separates them: Live is that green and nothing merely interactive may use it. The accent is also two colours now — Accent fills, AccentText writes — because a row of chips in the fill colour is a row of things that all look like the primary action. A palette is not one file, which is the part worth knowing before the next one. Nine hex literals lived outside it: the nav bar's own label colours, the accessory keys and their Ctrl-latched state, two scrims, the window background Android paints before Avalonia has a frame, and the launcher vector. The two C# sites now resolve from the dictionary by name rather than restating it. The renderer's page cannot — it is served to a WebView over a loopback socket — so terminal.css and terminal.js keep hand-copied values and say so at both sites. ShellScreen gained More and Buckets, appended rather than slotted in. SFTP and S3 are one screen over one TransfersViewModel differing only in which picker they offer, and the kind is set by the button that navigates rather than on arrival — doing it in OnScreenChanged made every arrival at Transfers force the picker back to hosts, including the desktop's own rail arriving at a screen with a bucket already open. It refuses to change kind while a session is live, because there is one session behind both destinations and switching under it would title a screen S3 while it listed an SFTP host. What the design draws and this does not, on the usual grounds. The FORWARDING screen: nothing here forwards anything, so every toggle would be a control with no effect — it is a paragraph on the hub naming the absence, for the reason the desktop keeps TEAMS in its rail. The terminal's `23 ms · fwd 5432`. An ED25519 badge and a SHA256 line on keychain cards, which need an algorithm field and a fingerprint the item type does not have. An `agent` chip, for an agent that does not exist. Snippet run history and exit codes. The Logs FOLLOW pill, which claims a live tail over records that are written once at close and read when the screen opens, and the severity filter, which has nothing to count — that chip row is spent on the real choice, which of the two logs. S3 bucket totals and lifecycle. And the + on HOSTS, which would open a host editor this head has not got. SFTP is browse, open and delete. Both transfer commands work, and what they work against is the local pane: QueueDownloads writes to Path.Combine(LocalPath, name), and LocalPath starts at SpecialFolder.UserProfile, which on Android is the application's own private directory. A download would have reported success and left the file where the person who asked for it cannot open it, which is worse than not offering it — a refusal is visible and a file in /data/user/0/ is not. The queue is not drawn either, since nothing here can put anything in it. Both return with the document picker. The foreground service still counts zero transfers, and the reason moved rather than went away. Four defects worth naming, because three of them are the kind that compile. A Button as a ListBox ItemTemplate swallows the pointer press before the list sees it, so the files listing selected nothing and every command reading the selection did nothing — the row is a Border now and the phone-only single-tap-to-open is a Tapped handler, which also keeps a desktop single click from walking into directories. Avalonia type selectors are exact, so TextBlock.fingerprint never matched SelectableTextBlock and every fingerprint on this head rendered proportional and unwrapped: that was breaking the never-truncated rule on the host-key sheet already. The new two-level hierarchy had no handler for the system back gesture, so back left the application from a log screen. And the tab's close cross had shrunk to a 30x32 target flush against the select target, which is the one control here that ends a shell with no confirmation and no undo. Fingerprint unlock is raised on arriving at the lock screen rather than waiting for its button, which is still there. Only at launch: a lock the user asked for is not answered with an immediate request to unlock, which makes LOCK look inert and trains the reflex of authenticating at a prompt nobody asked for. And once, because a declined gesture leaves the passphrase box exactly where it was and a prompt that came back after being dismissed would be a modal you cannot get out of to type into it. Two fixes fall on the desktop. Its file listing coloured directories with Info and executables with Accent, which was blue against green and is now two steps of one blue; an executable is Live now. And a bucket's folders were drawn with a 0001-01-01 timestamp, because a prefix has no modification time — blank now, for the reason a directory's size is blank. Verified by the whole suite: 1309 tests over nineteen projects, none failing, including the layout suite that stands up real Avalonia and parses every desktop screen. Both heads build. Not verified on a device — nothing in this head ever has been; see docs/android-port.md.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	c00e5dbc5c	Let the terminal's text be made bigger, and remember how big ... Taking pinch-zoom off the phone left nothing in its place, and there was nothing on the desktop either. This is the replacement, and it is deliberately not the thing that was removed: zoom scales what has already been drawn, so the remote goes on wrapping to a width that is no longer on screen. Changing the font size refits the grid and reports the new column count, so the far end is told it has fewer columns. That round trip is the feature. The size is one number, owned by the shell. It has to be, for two reasons that pull the same way: it must survive a relaunch, and it must be reachable from a phone that has no Ctrl key to press. So the page asks and the host decides — a signed step over a new client opcode, answered with a size over a new server opcode. The phone's buttons and the desktop's chords arrive at the same place, and a size set by either is the size both remember. Stored in settings.json beside the cache rather than in it, and that is not laziness about a migration. The cache is encrypted and unreadable until a vault is unlocked, and the first terminal of a locked launch needs the size already. Nothing secret may go in that file; ClientSettings says so out loud, because the next person to add a preference is the one who needs to read it. Where it is reachable from differs per head, and only here. The phone gets A− and A+ on the connection line — not in the accessory row, which scrolls, and a control that fixes unreadable text must never be the thing that is off-screen. The desktop gets the three chords every terminal emulator has, answered by the page while a terminal has focus and by the window when it does not, plus a row in preferences that shows the current value and names the chords rather than replacing them. Someone whose terminal is too small to read is not in a position to go looking. Clamped 8 to 32. Below eight a monospace grid stops being legible and becomes a texture, and every column of it is still a column the remote is being told exists; above thirty-two a phone in portrait has too few columns to hold a prompt. The buttons disable at the ends rather than accepting presses that do nothing, which on a terminal reads as the application having stopped responding. The preferences screen's header comment claimed none of the design's terminal settings could be saved, and listed the three things that were missing to make one work. All three now exist, so it says which one is real and why the other five still are not. Verified with the protocol suite — including that the step byte round-trips signed, since read unsigned a step down arrives as 255 and clamps to the largest font, making "smaller" do the most dramatic available version of "larger" — a data-plane test that the chord is heard with no session registered, and five shell tests: the default matches the renderer's, both clamps hold, reset works, and a size chosen in one shell is there in a second one over the same profile directory. Layout suite and both heads build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-02 13:15:11 +02:00
jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	ddf0dd6a2b	Stop the transfer tests depending on which thread ran them first ... Every test in TransferQueueingTests failed on the Linux runner with "The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it", and none of them had anything to do with the commits in that run. The class drained its rows through Dispatcher.UIThread.RunJobs(). That dispatcher is process-wide and belongs to whichever thread touched it first, and xunit runs each test class as its own parallel collection — so the moment a runner scheduled another class onto that thread ahead of this one, all nine died inside DispatcherOperation.Execute having asserted nothing about transfers at all. It passes locally and fails on a machine that schedules differently, which is the whole of why this took a CI run to find. TransfersViewModel now takes the poster it marshals through, defaulting to Dispatcher.UIThread.Post — the seam VaultViewModel's clipboard already is, for the same reason: a view model that reaches a process-wide UI object directly makes every test of it depend on a thread it does not choose. No head passes the parameter, so nothing about the running application changes. The test supplies a queue of its own and drains it, which is the same shape the dispatcher gave it. A poster that ran the action inline was tried first and is wrong: the transfer queue raises Changed from its pump thread as well as from the call that enqueued, so inline execution has a background thread adding rows to an ObservableCollection while the test reads it — it passed once and then failed a different test on the next run. Draining keeps every mutation on the thread doing the asserting, which is the one thing the dispatcher was providing that was worth keeping. One test added for the property that broke: queueing is reachable from any thread and must not care which. The class as a whole guards the seam — remove it and nothing drains, so every assertion about a row fails. Verified by reproducing the failure first: a throwaway probe that touched the dispatcher on one thread and posted and drained on another produced exactly the CI message. Then six consecutive Release runs of the app suite, all green, plus the layout suite, which builds a TransfersViewModel of its own.

jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	73c7e2a1e3	Point a release build at the hosted server, and a debug build at the clone ... The shipped default was http://localhost:5233, which is the address the API serves under dotnet run and a machine an installed application is not running. Somebody who installs a release and accepts the field unread is signing in to nothing. Two defaults now, because the two audiences never overlap. A release build offers https://ssh.dodotech.cloud, so a first launch needs no address typed at all. A debug build keeps the loopback address, and that half matters as much: shipping the hosted address into a clone would point every development launch at production, and sign-in is the call that provisions an account there. The remark carries the reason the schemes differ, since the pair now looks like an oversight rather than the deliberate thing it is — the API's first launch profile is plaintext on 5233, and an HTTPS client meeting a plaintext port reports a TLS failure that reads like a certificate problem. The test spells out both branches rather than asserting the constant, which would pass however it were edited. What it is really guarding is that a release never ships a developer's loopback address and a debug build never points a clone at production, and it can only guard those by naming them. Verified by running the shell suite in Debug and in Release. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-08-01 21:12:00 +02:00
jaap-janandClaude Opus 5	39b7e5620f	Say which half of signing in is happening, and which half failed ... A sign-in against a production Keycloak was reported as the shell hanging on "Opening your browser to sign in…" and then, some time later, saying "The server returned 500". Both halves of that are the message's fault. The browser flow had already succeeded — the provider authenticated the user, the code came back, the tokens were exchanged — and what was actually happening was a round trip to the DodoSSH server for the account. The screen went on describing a browser nobody was waiting for. The status now moves when the browser half ends, so the wait that follows is attributed to the server being asked rather than to the browser that has already answered. The failure gets the same treatment. "The server returned 500" is the API client's phrase for any server it talks to, and read underneath a sign-in button it is naturally taken as the sign-in having failed — which sends somebody to their identity provider's logs to find out why a thing that worked did not work. It now says signing in succeeded, names the host that failed afterwards, and says the reason is in that server's logs, because this side cannot know more than that. Nothing here fixes the 500. It changes which of the two servers the next person goes and looks at, which was the actual cost of the old message. Verified against the shell suite, including the case that asserts a failed command leaves the window enabled.

jaap-jan	4300d917a8	Stop making people wait for a handshake, and give the host list a pointer ... Connecting held the vault's busy gate, which meant a window that did nothing visible for as long as a machine took to answer — and against one that is merely asleep, that is the whole timeout. The gate is gone from that one command. A tab now appears in the strip in the same turn as the click, carrying "connecting…" rather than a pane, and the terminal's rectangle draws a card naming the host and the address being dialled. Every other screen stays usable, and two connections can be in flight at once. That splits the vault's one connection event into three, carrying an attempt id, because "which tab is this about" can no longer be answered by "the most recent one". The id also buys the two kinds of not-connecting their different endings: a refusal stays in the strip as a tab holding its reason, since by then the user is quite likely three screens away and a status line they are not looking at is not where a failure should end; a host key question takes the tab away and puts the window back on HOSTS, because the prompt is drawn there and a tab claiming failure would be competing with the thing about to resume it. ConnectAsync takes no CancellationToken any more, and that is load-bearing rather than tidying. A [RelayCommand] over a method that takes one generates a command that cancels the previous execution's token on every invocation — so asking for a second machine silently abandoned the first, measured as the first tab disappearing with "Cancelled." the instant the second was asked for. Giving up on a connection is closing its tab, and a session that lands after that is adopted rather than dropped: a shell running with nothing naming it cannot be closed at all. A tab is marked active on IsShowing rather than IsSelected. The selection survives navigating away — that is what makes the strip a way back to a terminal instead of a way to lose one — so a tab lit while preferences filled the window was a second "you are here" mark pointing at something nobody could see. The nav rail's own entries have always made this distinction. The host list grows the two gestures it looked like it already had. A right click selects the row under the pointer before opening a menu of Connect, Edit and Delete — the menu is on the list rather than in the item template, so its entries are the vault's own commands and not a row's, and it is cancelled outright over a group heading. Dragging a host onto a heading files it there, onto a host files it beside that one, and onto UNGROUPED takes it out of a group; the write is one field of one host through the same repository a save uses, refused while the editor is open because a drop is a gesture on the list and not on a half-typed form. Clicking a result in the palette connects, which is what a list of hosts under a search box looks like it does. It went through the shell's own command, so the pointer and Enter take one path. And the files screen's two pickers followed the vault's lists once, at unlock: a host or a bucket created afterwards could not be picked until the keychain had been locked and opened again, with nothing on screen explaining why the machine plainly in the host list was missing. They follow the collections now, re-finding the selection by id across the rebuild a sync pass causes every minute. 165 shell tests and 69 layout tests green, including the connecting tab, both failure endings, two connections at once, a connection in flight across a lock, and the right click acting on the row under the pointer rather than on the selection. The drag itself is in docs/manual-checks.md with the rest of phase 7 — headless Avalonia has no platform drag, and a test that claimed to have dropped something would pass while confirming nothing.	2026-07-31 22:59:33 +02:00
jaap-jan	7a3a521c59	Give the phone the rest of its screens, and a way in ... All seven screens of the design, plus the two it does not draw because it starts at an enrolled phone: naming a server, and choosing a passphrase. The five states docs/android-port.md worried about losing at 360dp are all here and none of them softened. The changed-key refusal is a full-screen panel rather than a bottom sheet, because a sheet is swipe-to-dismiss by convention and that screen must have no way forward. The recovery code raises FLAG_SECURE for its own state and lowers it afterwards, so the sentence about screenshots is true rather than decorative. The delete confirmations keep their counts and replace the row in place. Signing in works, and the seam it needed is worth more than the implementation: IAuthorizationCallback now sits between OidcClient and the loopback listener, so the two heads differ in where the response arrives and in nothing else. PKCE, the state check, discovery, the token exchange and the key binding stay one implementation — a second OIDC client would be a second place for a security bug to live. The phone registers a private-use scheme with the system rather than binding a loopback port, which on a shared device any other app can do first. The accessory key row needed TerminalWorkspace.SendInputAsync: ordinary typing goes from the renderer straight down the socket, and there was no way in for the keys a software keyboard does not have. Ctrl latches, because one thumb cannot chord, and the latch is drawn — a modifier that is on and does not look on is how somebody sends ^L to a database prompt believing they typed an l. 597 client tests green, including two new ones for the input path and one for the terminal surface command. Nothing has run on a device.	2026-07-31 21:43:11 +02:00
jaap-jan	2caedd93ff	Merge branch 'main' into the Android head ... Main grew the screens the host-management plan called for — hosts, pins, snippets, logs, import, teams — plus the ObjectStore and Import projects behind two of them, and moved WindowsDeviceKeyStore into the desktop head's Platform folder. Five of those view models landed in a directory this branch had already moved, so they join the rest in DodoSSH.Client.Shell: git spotted the rename and put them there, and the namespaces followed. Shell picks up ObjectStore and Import as a result, which the Android head then gets transitively and will use neither of at first — scoped storage means there is no ~/.ssh/config to import, and file transfer is out of its first scope. Desktop suites green at 155 and 64.	2026-07-31 21:03:22 +02:00
jaap-jan	fe9d7fc289	Give DodoSSH a phone, and a shared shell for both heads to drive ... The Android head from docs/android-port.md, taken as far as its step 6. Step 3, the spike, is answered and its throwaway screen is gone: libsodium.so and libe_sqlite3.so are both in the arm64 APK, so NSec resolves its native half on Android despite shipping no Android build, and the local cache opens. Two findings the audit could not have had: Avalonia.Controls.WebView only ships net10.0-android36.0, which settles the open "which Android versions" question at targetSdk 36; and Android has blocked cleartext HTTP since API 28, so the terminal renderer needs a network security config scoped to 127.0.0.1 or the WebView loads nothing. DodoSSH.Client.Shell is new and is why the phone can exist: the view models, the terminal renderer files and the palette moved there so both heads drive one state machine and draw from one set of tokens. The desktop head is otherwise untouched and its 144 tests still pass. The platform pieces behind interfaces that already existed: the profile directory from filesDir, a device key wrapped by a StrongBox-backed key that a fingerprint releases, and a foreground service so a shell outliving a vault lock stays true on a platform that stops backgrounded processes. Sign-in is deliberately absent rather than approximated. It needs an app link, because reusing the desktop loopback listener is the attack RFC 8252 section 8.3 names.	2026-07-31 20:58:48 +02:00
