Greptile SummaryThe PR replaces the Tailscale preparation retry behavior with an actor-owned, cancellation-aware readiness lifecycle bounded by a single clock deadline.
Confidence Score: 5/5The PR appears safe to merge because the previously reported readiness, cancellation, and unbounded-retry failures no longer remain. No blocking failure remains. Important Files Changed

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When the Tailscale interface is still becoming visible, Task.yield() can resume this task before NWPathMonitor publishes a new path, so all three attempts inspect the same unavailable state and the pairing attempt still ends with tailscaleAuthorizationUnavailable.

Check cancellation before each retry.
If cancellation occurs during Task.yield(), the next iteration calls authority.prepare(request:) without checking cancellation. Add try Task.checkCancellation() at the start of the loop to avoid extra preparation attempts and preserve CancellationError instead of returning tailscaleAuthorizationUnavailable.

Add behavior-level tests for the retry loop.
The current CmxTailscaleRouteProofTests test only the classification property. Add tests for transient failure followed by success, exactly three attempts before exhaustion, terminal failure without retry, and cancellation before the next attempt.

When the transport is closed before NWPathMonitor delivers its first callback, cancelling the preparation task does not resume the checked continuation stored in initialPathWaiters. The task remains suspended, causing connection or cleanup code awaiting task.value to hang until a path callback arrives.

Swift concurrency unstructured Task cancellation is not automatically propagated from awaiting parent task Task.value documentation
💡 Result:
In Swift concurrency, cancellation is not automatically propagated to an unstructured Task (created via Task {... } or Task.detached {... }) when you await its result using task.value [1][2]. This behavior occurs because unstructured tasks exist outside the structured concurrency hierarchy (the task tree) [3][2]. While structured tasks (created via async let or task groups) are automatically cancelled when their parent scope is cancelled, unstructured tasks are independent entities that must be managed explicitly [4][5][2]. When you call await task.value, you are merely awaiting the result of that task [6]. The system does not implicitly register the awaiting context's cancellation state with the unstructured task [3][1]. Consequently, if the parent task that is awaiting the result is cancelled, the unstructured task will continue running unaffected unless you manually trigger its cancellation [1][7]. To propagate cancellation from a parent task to an unstructured task, you must explicitly handle it, typically by using withTaskCancellationHandler [1][7]. This allows you to register an onCancel closure that calls task.cancel when the surrounding context is cancelled [1][7]. Example of manual propagation: func example(task: Task<Success, Failure>) async throws -> Success { return try await withTaskCancellationHandler { try await task.value } onCancel: { task.cancel } } This design is intentional [3][8]. Because unstructured tasks are often intended to outlive the scope in which they were created or to be shared across multiple callers, automatic cancellation propagation upon awaiting would be ambiguous and often undesirable [3][1]. For example, if multiple callers were awaiting the same unstructured task, cancelling one caller would unexpectedly cancel the task for all other callers [1].

Tie preparationTask to caller cancellation.
The only explicit cancellation path for preparationTask is close(). A canceled connect() can leave preparation running through all three attempts. Tie preparation to the connection attempt, define ownership for shared waiters, and check cancellation before each retry.

When route-proof validation reports a transient failure and no later changed path is published, prepare() waits and retries inside its own unbounded loop instead of returning the failure to the transport's three-attempt loop, causing the QR pairing attempt to remain suspended rather than ending with tailscaleAuthorizationUnavailable.
Knowledge Base Used: iOS Packages: Companion App and Mac Pairing
CmxTailscaleRouteReadiness (new, generic over the platform interface token) is now the single owner of path state: sequence-ordered ingest, content-based proof generations, cancellation-safe waiters, and one injected-Clock readiness deadline racing the proof loop. It replaces the initial-path waiters, the single-consumer AsyncStream, and the direct monitor.currentPath reads, and removes the unbounded prepare loop that made the transport's three-attempt retry dead code. A tunnel that never becomes provable now fails within the 10s readiness deadline as tailscaleAuthorizationUnavailable, which pairing already maps to the actionable Tailscale guidance, instead of hanging until the generic RPC request timeout. Behavior tests cover scan-before-first-path-callback, bring-up mid-wait, deadline expiry, cancellation while parked, stale observation ordering, and duplicate-callback generation stability.

Device logs from the first-scan repro showed every fresh Tailscale dial dying 6ms in: NWConnection's first path update arrives before the socket binds its local endpoint, the full endpoint validation ran anyway, and localEndpointMismatch (terminal) failed the transport before ready. The bug predates this branch; retries only succeeded when ready won the callback race. Validation is now phase-aware: a pathUpdate-phase check asserts route-level facts only (generation, satisfied path, proven interface still present) since endpoint facts do not exist yet, while ready and every write boundary keep the full established-phase check including local/remote endpoints. Regression test covers the exact still-connecting path shape from the device log. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Two distinct defects made the first Tailscale QR scan fail.
1. Readiness race and unbounded wait (commit 4120fe6). Preparation either judged NWPathMonitor's startup snapshot (failing instantly) or waited unbounded, surfacing a tunnel that never came up as a generic RPC timeout.
CmxTailscaleRouteReadiness(new, generic over the platform interface token so the lifecycle is testable withoutNWPath/NWInterface) now solely owns readiness state: sequence-ordered observations (stale captures dropped after actor hops), proof generations that advance only on content change, cancellation-safe waiters, and one injected-Clock readiness deadline (10s) racing the proof loop. A tunnel that never becomes provable fails within the deadline astailscaleAuthorizationUnavailable, which pairing maps to the actionable "Tailscale is not ready" guidance.CmxSystemTailscaleRouteAuthorityis reduced to platform wiring.2. Pre-ready endpoint validation killed every fresh dial (commit 2071d98, pre-existing on main). Device logs from the live repro showed
NWConnection's first path update arriving before the socket bound its local endpoint; the full endpoint validation ran on that still-connecting path and threwlocalEndpointMismatch(terminal), failing the transport 6ms into the dial, before ready. Retries only succeeded when ready won the callback race. Validation is now phase-aware:pathUpdate-phase checks assert route-level facts only (generation, satisfied path, proven interface present); ready and every write boundary keep the fullestablished-phase check including local/remote endpoints, so the write security boundary is unchanged.Verification
