Moves the CLI product changes out of #13079.

The VM dev, layout, and env commands defer socket connection until their first request, so local planning and validation can finish before transport discovery. Deferred requests configure socket authentication on the request path because authenticateClientIfNeeded is skipped for these commands. SSH control-option merging now compares the resolved host settings with an OpenSSH -F /dev/null baseline, preserving explicit host opt-outs while still allowing ordinary defaults to use cmux sharing.

Retry notices use complete localized format strings for immediate and delayed retries, including the attempt label, delay unit, punctuation, and all 20 supported locale entries.

Testing: Swift syntax parsing, localization JSON validation, and diff checks pass. A tagged build is required by repository instructions; ./scripts/reload-cloud.sh --tag cli-retry was attempted but the fleet backend timed out and no shared fleet slot was available. No local Xcode tests were run.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • VM and cloud development, layout, and environment commands now complete local validation and planning before connecting, improving behavior when the service is unavailable.
    • Explicit SSH options are now honored more accurately when configuring connection sharing.
  • Bug Fixes

    • SSH retry messages now clearly distinguish immediate retries from retries with a delay and provide clearer attempt information.
  • Localization

    • Added translated retry status messages for supported languages, including Arabic, German, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and others.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The CLI now preserves explicit SSH control options, defers socket setup for selected VM and cloud commands, and uses separate localized messages for immediate and delayed SSH retries.

Changes

CLI SSH and connection flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
SSH control-option precedence
Packages/macOS/CmuxFoundation/Sources/CmuxFoundation/SSHConnectionSharingOptions.swift, CLI/CMUXCLI+SSHConnectionSharing.swift, CLI/cmux.swift, Packages/macOS/CmuxFoundation/Tests/CmuxFoundationTests/SSHConnectionSharingOptionsTests.swift
The SSH option parser compares resolved values with an OpenSSH baseline and ignores explicitly supplied keys when detecting host configuration. CLI callers pass the baseline and explicit options. Tests cover an explicit ControlMaster=no case.
Deferred socket connection for VM and cloud commands
CLI/cmux.swift
vm and cloud commands with dev, layout, or env subcommands defer socket connection, skip connection telemetry, configure authentication directly, and remain eligible when the socket is unavailable.
SSH retry status localization
CLI/cmux.swift, Resources/Localizable.xcstrings
Immediate retries use cli.vm.sshInfo.retry.nowStatus. Delayed retries use cli.vm.sshInfo.retry.status with the delay. Both keys include translations for the listed locales.

RetriggerConfidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge; the previous socket-deferral, localization, and SSH sharing findings are fully addressed.

Findings

  1. P1 Window focus defeats deferral ▶
  2. P1 Default Disables Connection Sharing ▶
  3. P1 Host Sharing Disable Is Overridden ▶
  4. P2 Retry sentence is fragmented ▶

Summary

This PR defers socket connection and authentication for VM/cloud commands until their first request, preserves SSH connection-sharing configuration with per-key precedence, and replaces fragmented retry notices with complete localized messages.

  • Deferred commands are excluded from pre-dispatch window focusing, allowing local planning and validation to complete before transport discovery.
  • SSH configuration is compared against an OpenSSH baseline so explicit host sharing opt-outs remain distinguishable from built-in defaults.
  • Retry wording now distinguishes immediate and delayed attempts with fully localized format strings.

P1 Window focus defeats deferral

For vm or cloud dev, layout, and env commands with a window ID, the shared pre-dispatch path sends window.focus before entering the command handler. That request connects and authenticates immediately, so local planning and validation no longer finish first. If the socket is unavailable and the local arguments are invalid, the user receives a transport failure instead of the intended validation error. Exclude these deferred commands from pre-dispatch focusing or move focusing after local validation.

P2 Retry sentence is fragmented

The changed retry notice localizes only its prefix, then concatenates the delay, English attempt text, and fixed punctuation in one English word order. For example, the Japanese 再試行まで and Korean 다시 시도까지 translations are postpositional phrases, but this code places them before 1s. This violates the repository requirement that changed command output be fully localizable and must be fixed before merging. Use complete localized format strings with placeholders so each locale can control ordering, units, attempt wording, and punctuation.

Rule Used: Flag production user-facing text that is not fully internationalized across every locale supported by the affected surface: Swift UI/menu/alert/tooltip/error/command text must use String(localized:defaultValue:) or an equivalent localized API with a ... (source)

Note: If this suggestion doesn't match your team's coding style, reply to this and let me know. I'll remember it for next time!

P1 Default Disables Connection Sharing

When the caller explicitly supplies only ControlPath or ControlPersist, ordinary ssh -G output still reports the default disabled ControlMaster. This condition treats that default as custom host configuration and carries ControlMaster=false into the merge. That prevents cmux from adding ControlMaster=auto, so an option such as -o ControlPersist=600 silently loses connection sharing even though neither the caller nor the host configuration explicitly disabled it.

P1 Host Sharing Disable Is Overridden

When a host explicitly configures ControlMaster=no and the caller supplies only ControlPath or ControlPersist, this check cannot distinguish the host setting from OpenSSH's disabled default and returns nil. mergingDefaults then adds ControlMaster=auto, overriding the user's host policy and enabling connection sharing they explicitly disabled.

Format the localized retry strings after lookup.

CLI/cmux.swift loads these keys without format arguments. The catalog value is returned with literal %@ placeholders, so retry notices show %@ instead of the delay and attempt labels.

Load the localized format string, then apply String(format:locale:arguments:) with the same values used by each branch. Keep the delayed branch argument order as delay then attempt.
