Summary

Closes #11087. Restores the supported in-app Tailscale pairing flow after the loopback-only bearer policy landed in 3822f1d.

  • QR scanner and paste (connectPairingInput) now carry the existing exact numeric Tailscale destination capability for v2 and legacy v1 grammars. External deep links remain unprivileged.
  • Manual numeric Tailscale host + port entry uses the same exact destination authorization mode, adopts the authenticated Mac identity, and persists the user route grant for reconnects.
  • MagicDNS, LAN, and arbitrary manual hosts fail before transport creation with clear numeric-IP/QR guidance; generic Stack bearer fallback remains loopback-only.
  • Iroh, route proof/readiness, account/build/instance checks, route substitution protection, and physical-device loopback rejection remain intact.
  • Updated English/Japanese iOS and Mac pairing copy/placeholders.

Regression coverage

  • Added TailscalePairingRegressionTests.swift as the first (red) commit, then the fix as a separate commit.
  • Covers current QR through scanner/paste input, legacy tokenless v1 paste, all connection-method settings, manual numeric authorization and persistence, MagicDNS/LAN/arbitrary rejection, and external URL privilege boundaries. Existing route-proof tests cover interface/path/generation/endpoint substitution and physical loopback policy.

Verification

  • swift test --package-path Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell --filter TailscalePairingRegressionTests: all assertions pass (local SwiftPM wrapper additionally reports its known arm64-vs-x86_64 test-bundle probe failure).
  • swift test --package-path Packages/Shared/CMUXMobileCore --filter CmxUserTailscalePairingAuthorizationTests: assertions pass; same local architecture probe exit.
  • swift test --package-path Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileTransport --filter CmxTailscaleRouteProofTests: 7/7 assertions pass; same local architecture probe exit.
  • swift test --package-path Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileRPC --filter CmxAttachTicketInputTests: 14/14 assertions pass; same local architecture probe exit.
  • swift test --package-path ios/cmuxPackage ...: blocked by the repository's existing macOS deployment-target mismatch in package dependencies.
  • Package policy, workspace grouping, and PBX test wiring checks pass. The requested file-length script is absent in this clone; no TSV was created or regenerated.

Apple HIG Forms guidance was checked for the existing Form/TextField pairing surface: https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/forms

Summary by cubic

Restores the in-app iOS Tailscale pairing flow that broke when the loopback-only bearer policy landed, closing #11087.

Behavior changes

  • QR scan, paste, and manual numeric host/port entry now authorize the exact Tailscale destination; external deep links stay unprivileged.
  • MagicDNS, LAN, and arbitrary manual hosts are rejected before any dial with guidance to use a numeric Tailscale IP or QR.
  • Manual numeric pairing persists the route grant so reconnects keep working.
  • The Mac pairing window now shows only the Tailscale QR; Iroh is displayed as status text since it needs no pairing artifact.
  • Updated English and Japanese pairing copy, including the manual host placeholder and untrusted-route guidance.
  • Swift 6 build fixes in CmuxGit (continuation typing, async-let and type-annotation changes, stat C-string calls) have no runtime behavior change.

Regression coverage

  • Added TailscalePairingRegressionTests.swift covering QR scanner/paste, legacy tokenless paste, all connection-method settings, manual numeric authorization and persistence, MagicDNS/LAN/arbitrary rejection, and external URL privilege boundaries.
  • Updated cmuxFeatureTests so numeric Tailscale entry asserts a connected workspace session while MagicDNS and LAN entries assert rejection without any sent request.

Written for commit 8416b5d. Summary will update on new commits.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR restores iOS Tailscale pairing through QR and numeric IP/port entry, rejects unsupported routes, and protects bearer forwarding with exact authorization. It updates pairing guidance and localization, adds regression coverage, and applies non-functional Swift interoperability and syntax updates to macOS Git code.

Changes

Tailscale pairing flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Route validation and authorization
Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Sources/CmuxMobileShell/MobileShellComposite*.swift, Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShellModel/...
Manual pairing validates routes, requires exact numeric Tailscale authorization, suppresses incompatible dial candidates, and adopts the authenticated device ID for synthetic tickets.
Shell pairing regression coverage
Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Tests/CmuxMobileShellTests/TailscalePairingRegressionTests.swift
Tests cover QR entry, tokenless paste, numeric manual entry, unsupported hosts, bearer forwarding, and external QR handling.
Feature test expectations
ios/cmuxPackage/Tests/cmuxFeatureTests/cmuxFeatureTests.swift
Existing tests now verify numeric Tailscale guidance, exact authorization, bearer forwarding, MagicDNS and LAN rejection, offline entry, and loopback errors.
Pairing guidance and localization
Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Sources/CmuxMobileShell/MobilePairingFailure.swift, Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShellUI/..., Sources/Mobile/Pairing/..., Resources/Localizable.xcstrings, ios/cmux/Resources/Localizable.xcstrings
English and Japanese guidance now directs pairing through Tailscale QR codes or numeric Tailscale IP and port entry. Unsupported MagicDNS and LAN routes are identified.

macOS Git code modernization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Git filesystem path probing
Packages/macOS/CmuxGit/Sources/CmuxGit/Changes/GitExecutableFileProbing.swift, Packages/macOS/CmuxGit/Sources/CmuxGit/Refs/GitReferenceStorageProbing.swift
Filesystem paths are passed to POSIX stat through withCString; file and directory checks remain unchanged.
Git watch-path type clarification
Packages/macOS/CmuxGit/Sources/CmuxGit/Parsing/GitMetadataService+ConfigWatchPaths.swift
Continuation parameters and the deadline-expired tuple use explicit types.
Git parsing and naming cleanup
Packages/macOS/CmuxGit/Sources/CmuxGit/Parsing/GitMetadataService+WatchPaths.swift, Packages/macOS/CmuxGit/Sources/CmuxGit/Refs/*
Equivalent closure and pattern syntax, explicit whitespace handling, and a clearer local variable name replace the prior forms.

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

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to eb7c6

The change restores numeric Tailscale pairing while rejecting unsupported destinations, but a storage failure can leave pairing appearing successful even though future reconnects fail, and two validation failures are missing from pairing-failure analytics. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up for these bounded reliability and observability issues.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description provides a clear summary, testing details, regression coverage, verification results, and merge guidance. It omits the template's Demo Video, Review Trigger, and Checklist sections, but the core information is complete.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

The changes satisfy #11087 by restoring QR and paste pairing, adding exact numeric Tailscale authorization for manual entry, rejecting unsupported routes before transport creation, preserving security checks and compatibility paths, adding regression tests, and updating English and Japanese copy.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The CmuxGit changes are unrelated to the iOS Tailscale pairing objectives. They modify Git filesystem probing, continuation typing, parsing syntax, and naming without an explained dependency on the pairing fix.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 36.36% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 44 functions across 23 files. (3 skipped: 2 unsupported, 1 too large.)

Full details: Cmux Swift Actor Isolation

Explanation

PASS. The production changes do not introduce a stated Swift 6 actor-isolation failure. MobileShellComposite is already an explicitly @MainActor observable UI-bound store, and the new pairing logic remains inside its actor-isolated methods. The new pure device-ID helper is explicitly nonisolated. The changed CmuxGit value models and probing protocol are already explicitly nonisolated and Sendable; their edits add no unsafe shared mutable reference type or implicit MainActor service protocol. The new tests use @MainActor, which the check allows. Other production edits are documentation, localization, syntax, or existing isolation debt that the diff does not worsen.

Full details: Cmux Swift Blocking Runtime

Explanation

PASS. The PR diff against its actual PR parent adds no semaphores, blocking waits, sleeps, delayed dispatch, timers, polling loops, main-queue synchronous dispatch, or manual locks. The changed withCheckedContinuation code only adds explicit type annotations around an existing asynchronous queue operation. The production changes otherwise cover route validation, authorization, text, C-string conversion, and syntax; the synchronization primitives found elsewhere are unchanged. Test-only changes are permitted by the check.

Full details: Cmux Browser Automation Off-Main

Explanation

PASS: The custom check is not applicable. The PR diff changes 26 iOS pairing, localization, and CmuxGit paths. It does not change Sources/TerminalController.swift or Packages/macOS/CmuxControlSocket/Sources/CmuxControlSocket/Wire/ControlCommandExecutionPolicy.swift. The patch also contains no browser.*, processV2Command, socketWorkerMethods, WebKit wait, screenshot, or injected-hook changes. Therefore, the PR introduces no browser socket routing or worker-lane behavior covered by this rule.

Full details: Cmux Expensive Synchronous Load

Explanation

PASS — The PR does not add or move an expensive agent-history load. The changed production Swift contains no new RestorableAgentSessionIndex, SharedLiveAgentIndex, transcript, trajectory, JSONL, or agent-store file load. The pairing changes perform route validation and authorization only. The CmuxGit changes keep index/config work on blockingStatusQueue and only adapt stat calls. Temporary database setup appears only in regression tests. Existing loadPairedMacs() usage is not added or worsened by the diff.

Full details: Cmux Cache Substitution Correctness

Explanation

PASS: The PR does not replace a fresh authoritative read with a cached value in a persistence, history, undo, or snapshot path. The Git snapshot changes retain fresh gitReferenceSnapshot reads. The existing indexSnapshotsByRepository cache is used only after reading the index and checking parser.signature(data:) == cached.signature, with a fresh parse fallback for cold or stale data. Other cache-related changes are syntax-only or local non-persisted reuse. No TypeScript or JavaScript production files changed.

Full details: Cmux No Hacky Sleeps

Explanation

PASS. The PR diff against main changes only Swift source/tests and .xcstrings localization files. It introduces no TypeScript, JavaScript, shell, or build/runtime-script changes. A search of added lines found no sleep, timer, polling, delay, backoff, or wait constructs. The custom check is therefore not applicable.

Full details: Cmux Algorithmic Complexity

Explanation

PASS. The production diff adds no scan over workspaces, sessions, files, or other user-owned records. The new authorization filtering in MobileShellComposite.supportedRoutes can be O(R×A), but QR decoding bounds route count to 8 (CmxPairingQRCode.maximumRouteCount), and manual entry supplies one authorization. The path is therefore a tiny bounded pairing collection. The other Swift changes are text, continuation typing, C-string calls, or formatting; the packed-reference loop is unchanged. Tests are excluded by the rule.

Full details: Cmux Swift Concurrency

Explanation

PASS. The pull-request diff does not introduce or materially expand any prohibited legacy concurrency pattern. The only added concurrency-related source lines are explicit type annotations on two existing withCheckedContinuation closures in GitMetadataService+ConfigWatchPaths.swift; the existing blockingStatusQueue.async work remains unchanged. The pairing changes use existing async/await APIs, and the new regression tests use async test methods without adding legacy synchronization. No new DispatchQueue background work, Combine state, completion-handler API, or fire-and-forget lifecycle task appears in the added lines. The touched continuation code also fits the rule allowing existing legacy code that is touched without making the pattern worse.

Full details: Cmux Swift `@Concurrent`

Explanation

PASS. The PR adds only the allowed nonisolated synchronous pure helper isSyntheticManualDeviceID; it has no async or @concurrent annotation. The existing @MainActor production methods retain their prior isolation, and the network pairing work remains actor-bound stateful work. The existing @concurrent Git helper is unchanged. The Git continuation edits only add type annotations, and the new async tests are intentionally @MainActor UI-flow tests. The diff adds no invalid @concurrent use or un-hopped heavy async helper.

Full details: Cmux Swift Package Boundaries

Explanation

PASS. The changed pairing logic is in the existing SwiftPM targets CmuxMobileShell and CmuxMobileShellModel, not in the app target's root Sources/ path. The new regression suite is in CmuxMobileShellTests. The only changed root app source, Sources/Mobile/Pairing/MobilePairingView.swift, changes UI text only. The CmuxGit changes remain inside its SwiftPM target and are syntactic updates. No changed file introduces reusable domain logic in an app target without a package boundary.

Full details: Cmux Swiftpm Lockfiles

Explanation

PASS: The effective PR diff from common ancestor f756735 to PR tip b9d5d15 contains no Package.swift, Package.resolved, .gitignore, workflow, or cmux.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj changes. No package lockfile content changed, and the inspected cmux-owned package .gitignore files do not ignore Package.resolved. Therefore, no SwiftPM lockfile rule failure was introduced.

Full details: Cmux Swift Logging

Explanation

PASS. The PR adds no print, debugPrint, dump, NSLog, file logging, or stdout/stderr logging in changed Swift code. The new recordAppEvent calls use the existing structured diagnostic log. The added analytics fields contain only fixed categories and a boolean; they do not include hosts, ports, tokens, or user content. The existing file-scoped mobileShellLog declaration is unchanged by the diff.

Full details: Cmux User-Facing Error Privacy

Explanation

The changed production messages contain pairing guidance only. They mention Tailscale because the product exposes an explicit “Tailscale Only” connection choice and these messages are scoped to the Tailscale pairing flow. “MagicDNS” identifies the unsupported host form and does not expose a raw provider error, credential, token, header, payload, or internal diagnostic. The retained “Iroh” text was already present in the old localization value and is not newly exposed by this diff. Added credentials and bearer values occur only in tests.

Full details: Cmux Full Internationalization

Explanation

The PR changes the user-facing mobile.pairing.manual.title entry in Resources/Localizable.xcstrings, but the entry contains only en and ja. The touched root catalog already supports 20 locales: ar, bs, da, de, en, es, fr, it, ja, km, ko, nb, pl, pt-BR, ru, th, tr, uk, zh-Hans, and zh-Hant. The changed Swift text uses a localized API and has English/Japanese values, but it lacks translated entries for 18 supported locales. The parallel changes in ios/cmux/Resources/Localizable.xcstrings cover that catalog's two supported locales and do not remove this failure.

Resolution

Add translated mobile.pairing.manual.title values for ar, bs, da, de, es, fr, it, km, ko, nb, pl, pt-BR, ru, th, tr, uk, zh-Hans, and zh-Hant in Resources/Localizable.xcstrings. Keep the existing English and Japanese values, and verify that all changed root-catalog pairing strings have complete translations for every locale supported by that catalog.

Full details: Cmux Swiftui State Layout

Explanation

PASS — The pull-request diff adds no new SwiftUI state or layout machinery. The changed SwiftUI views only update localized/default text in MobileAutoConnectMigrationExplanation, MobilePairingScannerSheet, PairingView, SetupHelpGateContent, and MobilePairingView. The existing GeometryReader and ForEach in MobilePairingView are unchanged except for adjacent text, which is incidental legacy state/layout. No added ObservableObject, @Published, @StateObject, @EnvironmentObject, store reference in a lazy/list row, render-time state mutation, or new GeometryReader appears in the diff.

Full details: Cmux Architecture Rethink

Explanation

PASS: The PR introduces no architectural-rethink failure. The production changes use local immutable authorization values and route validation inside the existing @MainActor MobileShellComposite owner. The QR and manual paths both converge on the existing connect() action, and comments define the exact-destination authorization invariant. The diff adds no sleeps, delayed dispatch, polling, locks, blocking primitives, observers, new mutable state, side channels, or UI lifecycle owners. UI changes are copy-only. The added synchronization is test-only and uses async entry points without timing workarounds.

Full details: Cmux Swift Auxiliary Window Close Shortcuts

Explanation

PASS: The PR does not add or materially change a standalone cmux-owned window. Its Swift UI changes update existing pairing view text only, and the pairing window controller is unchanged. The existing cmux.mobilePairingWindow identifier is registered in cmuxAuxiliaryWindowIdentifiers. The deterministic scripts/lint_auxiliary_window_close_shortcuts.py also passes.

Full details: Cmux Source Artifacts

Explanation

PASS. The PR-side diff contains 19 paths, all under source, test, or localization locations. The only added file is the hand-written Packages/iOS/CmuxMobileShell/Tests/CmuxMobileShellTests/TailscalePairingRegressionTests.swift. The other changes are Swift source, test updates, and .xcstrings localization catalogs. No artifact-like paths, logs, screenshots, recordings, caches, build output, temporary directories, dependency checkouts, or binary files appear in the diff.

Full details: Cmux No Test Or Debug Seam In Production Source

Explanation

PASS. The complete PR diff adds no #if DEBUG, #if TESTING, @testable import, or test/debug-named member in production Sources files. The added isSyntheticManualDeviceID helper is not test-shaped and has three production callers in MobileShellComposite.swift. The only visibility widening removes private from applyingForcedWorkTreeRoots; the method is used by production code and is also exercised through the test target's existing @testable import, with no wrapper accessor added.

Full details: Cmux No Ambient Global State

Explanation

PASS. The PR diff adds no file-scope function, mutable global variable, stub namespace type, or singleton. The only new function, isSyntheticManualDeviceID at MobileShellComposite+ManualAttachTicket.swift:13, is a static member inside an extension of the existing stateful @Observable MobileShellComposite class. The Git change at GitMetadataService+WatchFallback.swift:6 only widens an existing extension member; it remains owned by GitMetadataService. The added stored properties and initializers belong to existing constructable structs.
