Zero-touch iroh admission dialed one discovered peer at a time, so a slow or unreachable candidate delayed every peer behind it by up to a full dial timeout before it appeared in the Connections list. The warm-pool reconciliation pass has fanned out since a028ba2; this closes the same gap for discovered peers.

The admission loop now uses the same bounded task-group shape as warm-pool reconciliation: the initial width is the live-capacity headroom at admission time, every dial re-checks capacity, scope, and foreground health immediately before starting, and establishment keeps re-checking the cap at commit, so concurrent winners stay inside maximumLiveMacConnectionCount. Within-Mac route fallback stays serial on purpose: those routes are alternatives to one Mac, not independent work.

Commit 1 adds the regression test only (red): each discovered peer's first host-status exchange parks on its own router, and serial admission never starts the second dial while the first is parked. Commit 2 fans out the dials (green). swift test on CmuxMobileShell passes.

Summary by cubic

Admits discovered secondary Macs concurrently instead of serially, so a slow or unreachable peer no longer blocks others. Adds CMUX_CONNECT debug logs for admission and dial lifecycles; logs now show only an 8‑char device‑id prefix and instance tag to avoid leaking full identifiers.

  • Uses a bounded task group: initial width = maximumLiveMacConnectionCount - liveMacConnections.count; each task re-checks capacity, scope, and foreground health before dialing; establishment re-checks the cap at commit. Cap enforcement and failure handling are unchanged; within‑Mac route fallback remains serial.
  • Introduces private admitDiscoveredSecondaryIrohMac to perform a guarded dial; a nil outcome means the dial never started.
  • Adds CMUX_CONNECT logs: zero_touch_admission_start/end, secondary_dial_start/join/end (with outcome and elapsed_ms), secondary_client_connected, and secondary_admission_skipped; truncates device ids to 8 chars and omits display names.
  • Adds a concurrency test that holds host-status on two candidates simultaneously to prove both dials start in parallel.

Written for commit 9e1be68. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Performance

    • Secondary device connections are now established concurrently, reducing the time required to connect multiple discovered devices.
  • Reliability

    • Connection attempts recheck availability and capacity before dialing, helping prevent invalid or unnecessary attempts.
    • Transient connection failures continue to support retrying eligible devices.
    • Improved tracking of connection attempts and outcomes provides more consistent pairing results during automatic discovery.
  • Diagnostics

    • Added connection progress details, including active attempts, completion results, timing, and successful secondary-device connections.

Holds each discovered peer's first host-status exchange on its own
router. Serial admission parks on the first held dial and never starts
the second, so the both-held expectation fails until admission fans out.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Zero-touch Iroh discovery now admits secondary candidates concurrently within live-connection capacity. Each admission rechecks connection conditions before dialing. The flow records establishment outcomes and diagnostics. An integration test verifies overlapping secondary dials and persisted connections.

Changes

Zero-touch Iroh admission

Layer / File(s) Summary
Bounded concurrent admission
Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Sources/CmuxMobileShell/MobileShellComposite+ZeroTouchIroh.swift
Candidate admission uses bounded task-group processing. A helper rechecks capacity, scope, connection state, and remote-client availability before establishing and persisting each subscription.
Secondary connection diagnostics
Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Sources/CmuxMobileShell/MobileShellComposite.swift
Secondary establishment logs flight joins, dial starts, completion outcomes, elapsed time, and successful client connections.
Concurrent admission integration validation
Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Tests/CmuxMobileShellTests/IrohZeroTouchDiscoveryTests.swift
The test delays two secondary peers, verifies overlapping dials, then confirms all candidates connect and persist.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 9e1be

Concurrent admission can still create a client after the configured capacity is consumed, and candidates skipped while capacity is full may be dropped instead of retried. These are bounded but concrete correctness and reliability risks, so merge should wait for fixes or explicit owner acceptance.

Greptile Summary

Concurrent zero-touch admission now dials independent discovered secondary Macs in parallel while retaining scope, foreground-health, and connection-cap checks.

  • Uses a bounded task group sized from available live-connection capacity.
  • Adds per-candidate guarded admission and connection lifecycle diagnostics.
  • Adds a regression test proving two discovered peers can reach host-status exchange concurrently.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge because no blocking failure remains in the eligible follow-up review scope.

No blocking failure remains.

CMUX_CONNECT lines mark each secondary establishment's start, client
connect, and end (outcome + elapsed ms), plus the zero-touch admission
envelope, so a device debug log shows whether dials to different Macs
overlap and how long each phase took.

CodeRabbit review: the CMUX_CONNECT lines logged raw Mac device ids and
the display name. An 8-char device-id prefix plus the instance tag keeps
per-Mac correlation without putting full identifiers in the string log.

218-230: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Recheck capacity immediately before dialing.

The capacity check runs before await isScopeCurrent(scope). Another admission or foreground attach can consume the last slot during that suspension. performSecondaryMacSubscriptionEstablishment then starts makeSecondaryClient before its only capacity check at MobileShellComposite.swift Lines [5964-5965]. This can create an extra client after the pool is full.

Move the scope check before a final capacity guard, and add the same authoritative macConnectionRegistry.sessionCount check immediately before makeSecondaryClient.

This preserves the PR objective that each dial rechecks capacity before it starts.

Proposed fix
-        guard liveMacConnections.count < Self.maximumLiveMacConnectionCount,
-              await isScopeCurrent(scope),
+        guard await isScopeCurrent(scope),
+              macConnectionRegistry.sessionCount
+                  < Self.maximumLiveMacConnectionCount,
               connectionState == .connected,
               remoteClient != nil else {

Also add the capacity guard to the pre-dial guard in MobileShellComposite.swift before makeSecondaryClient(for:).

163-177: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Preserve candidates skipped by capacity. When capacity fills, the replenishment loop removes the candidate after admitDiscoveredSecondaryIrohMac returns nil. The candidate is not retried or included in the full discovery retry. Preserve discovery intent for capacity skips, or stop dequeuing candidates when the cap is full.
