Adds per-hop keystroke latency and the frame pacer's chosen rate to the phone's existing Axiom latency telemetry, without adding events.

Stages measured per keystroke (histograms on the existing cmux.mobile.terminal.latency window span, 17-bucket schema v1):

field stage clock
host_accept Mac input lane receives → terminal accepts (includes main-actor queueing) Mac
host_capture accepted → echo frame captured (includes pacer wait) Mac
host_dispatch captured → encoded and handed to the send queues Mac
network_round_trip total network time, uplink + downlink, exact derived, no clock sync
uplink / downlink the split of the above estimated
existing render phone receive → presented phone

The phone and Mac clocks are not synchronized, so one-way time cannot be read by subtraction. The round trip is exact from the four NTP timestamps; the split uses the clock offset from the quickest exchange seen so far (queueing only adds delay, so the fastest exchange is the most symmetric). A test shows a simulated 900 ms radio-wake stall lands in uplink rather than being smeared across both directions. The relay server's share cannot be isolated: it exposes no timings, so it is folded into uplink/downlink.

Pacer rate: pacer_period histogram plus pacer_emitted_count, pacer_coalesced_count, pacer_shed_count, pacer_period_max_ms, pacer_sample_count.

Cost: no new events. The Mac attaches input stamps only to the first frame carrying a newly accepted marker, and a pacer sample at most once per second per surface; frames without them omit the key. The phone adds the new fields only in windows that measured them, so idle windows and windows from older Macs are byte-identical to today (covered by windowsWithoutHostTimingAddNoStageFields).

Ingest route change (deploy ordering): web/services/observability/mobileNetworkOutcome.ts rejects any event containing an unknown property. Without the allowlist change here, a phone sending the new fields would have dropped every terminal latency window. The route now accepts, validates (same 17-bucket check as the existing histograms), and forwards the optional fields; events from existing phones parse unchanged. The web deploy on merge precedes any phone build carrying the new fields.

Tests: CMUXMobileCore MobileTerminalHostTimingTests (wire round-trip, key omitted when absent, estimator exactness and stall attribution, inconsistent-timestamp rejection) 6/6; MobileTerminalLatencyReporterTests 10/10 incl. two new; ingest route 37/37 incl. accept and reject cases; pacer sampling tests in MobileTerminalFramePacerTests; local tagged build-for-testing green.

Summary by cubic

Adds per-hop keystroke latency stages and the frame pacer's rate to the phone's existing Axiom latency window, without adding new events.

The Mac stamps each accepted keystroke at four points (input lane arrival, terminal acceptance, frame capture, frame dispatch) and attaches the stamps once to the first frame carrying that marker, plus a pacer sample at most once per second per surface. The phone folds them into the ten-second cmux.mobile.terminal.latency window as host_accept, host_capture, host_dispatch, network_round_trip, uplink, downlink, and pacer_period histograms plus pacer counters. The network round trip is exact from NTP timestamps; the uplink/downlink split is an estimate using the clock offset from the quickest exchange seen so far. Windows without host timing carry no new fields, so idle and older-Mac windows are byte-identical to today.

Deploy ordering

The Axiom ingest route rejects any event with an unknown property, so web/services/observability/mobileNetworkOutcome.ts now allowlists, validates, and forwards the new optional fields. Without this, a phone sending the new fields would drop every terminal latency window. Deploy the web change before any phone build carries the new fields; events from existing phones parse unchanged.

Written for commit 86772ec. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Mobile terminal latency reporting includes per-stage timing for host processing, network round trips, and uplink and downlink when timing data is available.
    • Reports can include frame-pacing activity, including emitted, coalesced, and shed frames.
    • Observability events include these additional metrics alongside existing latency data.

MobileTerminalHostTiming is an optional frame field holding the Mac's
monotonic stamps for one keystroke's pass (input received, accepted, frame
captured, dispatched) plus a pacer sample (period, emitted, coalesced,
sheds). It is attached sparingly so wire cost is negligible and absent
frames omit the key entirely; older phones ignore it.

MobileTerminalClockOffsetEstimator splits network time into uplink and
downlink across the unsynchronized phone and Mac clocks: the round trip
is exact from the four NTP timestamps, and the split uses the clock offset
from the quickest exchange seen so far.

… event

The Mac stamps each accepted keystroke (arrival before the main-actor hop,
acceptance, frame capture, dispatch) and attaches the stamps once to the
first frame carrying that marker, plus a pacer sample (period, emitted,
coalesced, sheds) at most once per second per surface. The phone folds
them into its existing ten-second latency window as extra histograms:
host_accept, host_capture, host_dispatch, network_round_trip, uplink,
downlink, pacer_period, and pacer counters. The network round trip is
exact; the uplink/downlink split uses the clock offset from the quickest
exchange. No new events are emitted, and windows without host timing
carry no additional fields, so Axiom ingest volume stays flat.

The ingest route rejects any event with an unknown property, so it now
allowlists, validates, and forwards the new optional fields; without that,
a phone sending them would have dropped every terminal latency window.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 86772

Mobile terminal delivery is not shown to fail, but the new latency breakdown can misattribute time between the host and network. Resolve or explicitly accept these measurement limitations before merging.

Full details: Cmux Swift Actor Isolation

Explanation

The production diff adds pure public Codable/Sendable value models without an explicit nonisolated boundary: MobileTerminalHostTiming, MobileTerminalPacerSample, MobileTerminalClockOffsetEstimator, and nested Split in Packages/Shared/CMUXMobileCore/Sources/CMUXMobileCore/MobileTerminalHostTiming.swift. These types are wire data and a clock utility used across the Mac render path and iOS latency reporter, so implicit MainActor ownership would add unnecessary actor coupling and can produce Swift 6 isolation diagnostics. The existing explicit @MainActor latency protocol and reporter are not the finding.

Resolution

Mark the new pure model and utility declarations nonisolated, including MobileTerminalHostTiming, MobileTerminalPacerSample, MobileTerminalClockOffsetEstimator, and MobileTerminalClockOffsetEstimator.Split. Keep the existing @MainActor protocol and reporter isolated because they mutate UI-bound telemetry state.

Full details: Cmux Swift Package Boundaries

Explanation

The PR materially expands Sources/Mobile/MobileTerminalFramePacer.swift with pacer telemetry counters and takeSample(now:). This type is a pure state machine that uses only Foundation, ContinuousClock, and CMUXMobileCore; it has no AppKit, SwiftUI, Ghostty, lifecycle, or singleton dependency. The new tests directly exercise it without app setup. The app-only calls in MobileTerminalRenderObserver and MobileTerminalByteTee are integration glue, but the pacer logic violates the package boundary rule.

Resolution

Move MobileTerminalFramePacer and its unit tests into the existing macOS SwiftPM target Packages/macOS/CmuxMobileHost (or a small dedicated CmuxMobilePacing target). Expose MobileTerminalFramePacer as the first public type, add the package test target, and keep only the render-observer integration in Sources/Mobile.

Reset and age the per-surface clock offset.

SurfaceState retains clockOffset when the app backgrounds or terminal output resets. The estimator keeps the smallest round trip indefinitely. Phone DispatchTime.uptimeNanoseconds pauses during sleep, while Mac timestamps continue. After wake, the stored Mac-minus-phone offset can therefore be stale. New samples keep using it unless they have a smaller round trip.

The round-trip value remains correct, but the split can be wrong. If the sleep-induced offset exceeds one network leg, clamping can assign the sample entirely to the other leg. A long foreground session can also accumulate clock drift because the best sample does not expire.

Reset the estimator at both lifecycle boundaries. Also expire the best sample using phone time so continuous sessions can adopt a newer sample. These fixes address different cases: phone-time aging does not detect a sleep gap because that clock pauses.

Consolidate terminal latency reporting into one delivery helper.

Both delivery branches currently preserve the required hostTimingReceived → outputReceived order. However, the PR wires this transition separately in deliverTerminalOutput and terminalOutputDidProcess. A future change can update one branch and omit the other. Use one helper as the single source of truth while preserving each branch’s byte count and queue depth.

Clear pending timing for accepted inputs without a sequence.

recordAcceptedInput clears inputSequence for an accepted legacy input but keeps pendingInputTiming from the previous sequenced input. The next render frame can attach those stale host timestamps while its appliedInputSequence is nil.

Suggested fix
         if sequence != nil {
             let accepted = Self.uptimeMicros()
             surfaceState.pendingInputTiming = (min(receivedAtMicros ?? accepted, accepted), accepted)
+        } else {
+            surfaceState.pendingInputTiming = nil
         }

Stamp frameCapturedMicros before the anchor loop.

attachHostTiming currently reads the capture timestamp after emitRenderGridFrame has completed the Ghostty export and diff. Because host_capture is computed from the capture timestamp minus the accepted timestamp, this includes export and diff time in host_capture.

Take one timestamp before the anchor loop and pass it to attachHostTiming:

Suggested fix
     private func attachHostTiming(
         to frame: MobileTerminalRenderGridFrame,
         surfaceID: UUID,
+        capturedMicros: UInt64,
         resolved: inout HostTimingResolution
     ) -> MobileTerminalRenderGridFrame {
 ...
         case .unresolved:
-            let captured = MobileTerminalByteTee.uptimeMicros()
             let input = MobileTerminalByteTee.shared.takePendingInputTiming(surfaceID: surfaceID)
 ...
-                    frameCapturedMicros: input == nil ? nil : captured,
+                    frameCapturedMicros: input == nil ? nil : capturedMicros,
+let captureStartMicros = MobileTerminalByteTee.uptimeMicros()
 for anchor in anchors {
 ...
     let emitted = attachHostTiming(
         to: capturedFrame,
         surfaceID: surfaceID,
+        capturedMicros: captureStartMicros,
         resolved: &resolvedHostTiming
     )
