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. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

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.

Write down how the phone will add hosts, before it adds any
The + button the design has asked for twice needs three things that do not exist: a tag, a group's parent, and a group's defaults. Two of them are refused on the record — HostGroupSecret argues groups are flat, and the theme argues an unused style is a claim the control exists. So the plan goes in first, with the decisions and the reasons. Tags become a real item over the reserved slot, a host names them, and membership merges through ThreeWayMerge.Map rather than as a whole value, so two people tagging one host both keep theirs — which is what HostTag was going to buy. Group defaults inherit rather than copy, shown as the field's placeholder, which is what makes editing a group afterwards mean anything. A parent arrives with a visited-set walk, because with inheritance a cycle is no longer an undrawable sidebar — it is a shell that never opens. Also written down: that Port has to go nullable and everything that touches, the byte pin it will trip, and the schema-version branch whose absence would make an inheriting host unreadable rather than read-only on every client that has not been upgraded.
