iOS: quiet reconnecting UX — title-bar spinner, interactive terminal, no connection-driven pops - #10821
Conversation
Same fix as #10813 (identical hunk, merges clean); carried here so this branch's packages build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reconnecting now surfaces as a mini spinner in the title bar's existing indicator slot instead of the terminal-covering status pill; the pill remains only for the unavailable state, where it still offers Reconnect. The terminal stays fully interactive while a reconnect is in flight: input blocking (and keyboard resignation) now trigger only on unavailable or failed foreground recovery, and a send racing the dead window fails visibly through the send-status pill. Connection churn can no longer push the user out of the workspace detail screen. WorkspaceAbsenceAuthority decides whether a workspace's absence from a freshly derived list is authoritative (deleted, closed, unpaired - selection retargets and the detail pops as before) or a transient hole from a degraded connection (selection holds and the detail keeps rendering its last-known snapshot). The held-selection window also stops the selectedWorkspace first-row fallback from clobbering the terminal selection or mispairing input ids. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win
Consolidate the duplicated foreground-served check.
workspaceRowIsForegroundServed (Line 1548) duplicates the device/build comparison already implemented in selectedWorkspaceUsesForegroundConnection (Line 1513). The two differ only in how they treat a row whose macDeviceID equals Self.foregroundAnonymousKey: the new function treats it as foreground-served, the existing one does not.
Extract one shared private helper that takes the row's macDeviceID and macInstanceTag and returns whether it is foreground-served, then have both public/internal call sites use it. Keeping two independent implementations of the same correctness-critical fact risks future drift, even though today's normalization elsewhere makes the divergence unreachable.
As per path instructions, "flag ... more than one disagreeing source of truth for the same fact" (.github/review-bot-rules/reliability-single-source-of-truth.md).

…ties) Same hunk as #10813; the +Actions file in the same target calls it, so archive fails on main. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Preflight showed the redial path downgrades the retained row to unavailable in the same turn it marks recovery as reconnecting, so the raw-status gate resigned the keyboard right as the title spinner started. effectiveConnectionStatus reads reconnecting through that window (and folds a failed recovery into unavailable), so the keyboard now survives the blip.

The terminal-covering Disconnected pill is gone. The title's indicator slot turns red while disconnected, the subtitle line reads Disconnected (the input gate blocks typing there, so the state explains itself), and manual Reconnect moves into the title tap menu.

1 participant
Reconnecting on the workspace detail (terminal) screen now surfaces as a mini spinner in the title bar's existing indicator slot instead of the terminal-covering status pill. Per the Apple HIG on progress indicators, an indeterminate activity indicator fits an unquantifiable wait, and spinners are preferred where "space is constrained" because they are "small and unobtrusive"; the spinner is unlabeled per the same page, with the existing localized Reconnecting string as its accessibility value (https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/progress-indicators).
The disconnected state moved into the title bar too, and the pill is deleted outright: the indicator slot turns red, the title's subtitle line reads Disconnected (the input gate blocks typing in that state, so it explains itself), and manual Reconnect is the first item in the title tap menu. Reauthentication keeps its blocking banner, and background auto-reconnect is unchanged. All states share one fixed indicator frame, so the title never shifts.
The terminal stays fully interactive while a reconnect is in flight so the user can finish typing. Input blocking (and keyboard resignation) key on the effective, recovery-aware status: the redial path downgrades the retained row to unavailable in the same turn it marks recovery as reconnecting, so the raw-status gate would resign the keyboard right as the spinner starts (caught in preflight). A send racing the dead window fails visibly through the send-status pill.
Connection churn can no longer push the user out of the detail screen. A new pure policy,
WorkspaceAbsenceAuthority, decides whether a workspace's absence from a freshly derived list is authoritative (deleted, closed, or unpaired: selection retargets and the detail pops exactly as before) or a transient hole from a degraded connection (selection holds, and the detail keeps rendering its route snapshot until the reconnect restores the row or a healthy list confirms the deletion). The policy gates therecomputeDerivedWorkspaceStateremap fallback andopenWorkspace's "disappeared after switch" rollback. The held-selection window also hardens twoselectedWorkspacefirst-row fallbacks:syncSelectedTerminalForWorkspaceno longer clobbers the held terminal selection, and the raw-input paths resolve the workspace id from the explicit selection so a held terminal id can never be paired with a foreign workspace id. The failed cross-Mac switch rollback inopenWorkspaceis deliberately kept: staying mounted there would sit input on a wrong-client boundary.Two main-red fixes are carried so this branch builds, identical to hunks in #10813 (merging clean against it): the
MobileWorkspaceAggregationgroup-id/workspace-id type error and thefileprivate groupActionCapabilitiescross-file access. A third (CLIPendingCursorShellApprovalEncodable) was absorbed by merging main after #10820 landed.Tests:
WorkspaceAbsenceAuthorityTests(4 cases) pass viaswift testin CmuxMobileShell;WorkspaceTitleMenuValueTestscovers connection-status and reconnect-capability invalidation; the reauth reconnect-gating test moved tocanReconnectFromTitleMenu(CmuxMobileShellUI declares no macOS platform, so those build in CI's iOS lane). Localization audit: no new user-facing strings; the title reusesmobile.connection.reconnecting/mobile.connection.unavailableand the menu reusesmobile.workspace.reconnect.Verified on an isolated simulator: spinner + live keyboard 7s into a Mac kill; red dot + Disconnected subtitle once attempts stop; Reconnect as the first title-menu item; manual reconnect recovers in place; never popped off the detail through any transition.
