A forgotten pairing left the phone racing reconnects forever. Throttle host rejects without leaking device existence, drop the saved pairing once every race hop agrees, and retry locked Windows uninstall teardowns. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This change adds rejection backoff and reconnect cleanup, but the current implementation can stop applying backoff early, retain unbounded rejection history that may exhaust host resources during attack bursts, and clear a valid pairing during mixed-host races.

to replace per-device timestamp arrays with a bounded aggregate, such as fixed
time buckets, while preserving the 60-second window count and logging cadence.
Ensure sustained same-device bursts do not cause unbounded memory growth or
repeated full-history copying, and add a named regression test covering a large
same-device burst.

A same-device burst no longer grows a timestamp list, and a pairing is forgotten only when every hop that actually ran agrees on one host — queued addresses and mixed-host rejections cannot keep a dead pairing looping or wipe a live one. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
A tumbling per-device counter reset every minute, so a phone that kept retrying got a fresh no-delay burst at each boundary. Rolling 5s buckets keep the last minute of hits without storing a timestamp per reject. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Keep each rejection active for the full configured window.
pruneSlot expires a bucket from its start time, not from each rejection time. A rejection at 4,999 ms is removed at 60,000 ms, although it is only 55,001 ms old. This can reset countInWindow, log cadence, and delayMs almost five seconds early.
Use an exact bounded representation, or explicitly define and test a bucket-aligned window policy. Add a named regression test with four hits late in one bucket and a fifth hit after the bucket-start boundary. The fifth action must retain all five hits and apply backoff.
Also applies to: 87-91

The iOS app is not built by PR CI, and three recent merges each landed a compile break that the next one hid: - WorkSessionDestinationView passed onOpenParentSession right after onOpenLane, but memberwise-init argument order follows property declaration order in WorkChatSessionView, where it sits after the model controls (#1117). - SyncService.errorByClearingAmbiguousRouteAuthFailure is called from the connection race's task-group closures off the main actor; it is a pure NSError rewrite, so mark it nonisolated (#1120). - WorkChatSessionView.body had grown into one ~300-line expression chain; the x86_64 simulator slice hit the type-checker's "unable to type-check in reasonable time" ceiling (#1121). Split it into bounded helpers (transcriptScrollView / chatColumn / timelineScrollHandlers / sessionLifecycleHandlers / feedbackAndSheets) with the identical view tree and modifier order. Verified: xcodebuild build-for-testing succeeds for the ADE scheme (simulator, both arches); ADETests runs 1494 tests with 6 failures that predate this branch (PR-list workflow context, roster delta, sync recovery policy — tracked separately).

* ci: build and test the iOS app on every PR The iOS app was the only ADE surface with zero CI coverage; three consecutive merges (#1117, #1120, #1121) each landed a Swift compile break, and 6 ADETests failures accumulated invisibly. New test-ios job on macos-26 (Xcode 26) builds the ADE scheme for testing and runs ADETests. It always runs — ci-pass deliberately counts "skipped" as failure — but exits success immediately on PRs that don't touch apps/ios/** or ci.yml, so non-iOS PRs pay only runner spin-up. SPM packages cached on Package.resolved. Make the suite it gates green (1494 tests, 0 failures locally): - Three PR-list tests still built 'queue' group fixtures; queue workflows were removed in 1b3d33b and the joins narrowed to integration groups. Fixtures now use 'integration'; the scoping/filter subjects and every other assertion are unchanged. - testFilterPullRequestListItemsMatchesStateAndSearch asserted a search for "review" returns one row, but both fixtures contain "review" in title/branch — wrong since the day it landed (4f18960); state narrowing is covered by the following assertions. - testRosterCleanExitAndLegacyPayloadRemainCompatible expected clean exit to settle; 31bac9b (#951) made settle declared-only. Expect .ended and additionally pin exitCode == 0. - testRelayCandidateRuntimeIgnoresReadyBeforeAccepted raced a real 350 ms negotiation deadline against the host scheduler. The budget is now a SyncConnectionRaceBudget field (production defaults byte-identical) and the test hook widens only that window; assertions untouched. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ci: let the iOS test host sign ad-hoc; surface full failure detail CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED=NO left the test host unsigned, so simulator keychain access failed with missing-entitlement errors in the account sign-out and DPoP proof tests (they pass locally, where the host signs ad-hoc). Also replace output truncation with -quiet and upload the .xcresult bundle on failure so CI failures are diagnosable. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * ci: address review — persist-credentials off, timeout test keeps a real window - test-ios checkout no longer persists the GITHUB_TOKEN into .git/config; xcodebuild runs PR-controlled build phases and needs no authenticated git. - awaitRelayCandidateReadyForTesting takes an acceptedWindowNanoseconds override; the negotiation-timeout test passes 50ms so it exercises the timeout path without sitting out the wide scheduling-safe window (SyncRecoveryPolicyTests back to ~9s).

Summary
unknown_deviceandsecret_mismatch.fs.rmSyncmaxRetries/retryDelay(only effective withrecursive: true).Root cause (Issue A)
A live phone (
997f05a5-8b37-4905-8c61-2c50d9779499) has been rejected asunknown_devicefor 24h+ (~8/min, bursts of 3–4 in 227ms). The host has no pairing record. The iOS client races LAN + Tailscale + Relay;forgetHost()only ran whenhello_error.host.deviceIdmatched savedhostIdentity. Missing/stale identity made every hop ambiguous, so heartbeat reconnect never stopped.Carved out: why the pairing vanished on disk (unpair, wipe, account revoke, never paired to this
~/.ade/secrets) is not proven from the sandbox; backoff still ships either way.Test plan
