Round out the Mac-parity keyboard/pointer affordances on the iPad split view. Keyboard shortcuts (hidden buttons in SplitRootView carry them): - ⌘N — start a new chat: select Home and focus the composer (also defaults the project). A one-shot Bool binding threads Home→StartChatComposer and is consumed on use, so it grabs focus on ⌘N but never on a later Home appearance (handles both "already on Home" via onChange and "switched from a session" via onAppear). - ⌘1–4 — jump to Home / Projects / To-dos / Settings. - ⌘R — refresh sessions. - ⌘. — interrupt a running session (Mac's "stop"; otherwise only in the ⋯ menu). UI: - A visible "New chat" (compose) button in the sidebar toolbar runs the same action, so touch users get the affordance too (gated on control scope). Hover (pointer): - .hoverEffect on the transcript tool-call / tool-block rows and the Home in-progress session rows (native List rows already hover). Verified in the iPad simulator: the New-chat action scrolls to + focuses the composer with the project defaulted. Builds clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <[email protected]>
NucleicRemote (iPhone client)
The thin iOS remote client for Nucleic (PLAN milestone M4). It's a pure projection of the
Mac host over LAN: monitor sessions, read transcripts/diffs, answer approvals, and send
follow-up input — scope approve. No local git or CLI; the Mac is the single authority
(see docs/UX_IOS.md and docs/SYNC_PROTOCOL.md).
Architecture
All wire/crypto logic is shared with the Mac via the NucleicProtocol SwiftPM library
(this Xcode project links it as a local package at ../..):
- Transport —
NWFrameChannel(NWConnection) +LANDiscovery(Bonjour_nucleic._tcp). - Engine —
NucleicProtocol.SyncClientruns the Noise handshake (XXpsk0 to pair, IK to reconnect), exchanges hello/welcome, and turnsHostMsgs into aSyncClient.Eventstream. - State —
RemoteStore(ObservableObject) is the single on-device UI state, a pure projection of the host. Identity + pinned host live inIdentityStore(Keychain + UserDefaults). - UI — SwiftUI:
SessionsView(attention-first list),SessionDetailView(transcript/diff + status-driven action area),ApprovalCardView(Face ID gate on high-risk),PairingScannerView(QR),SettingsView.
Build & run
# Resolves the local NucleicProtocol package automatically.
xcodebuild -project ios/NucleicRemote/NucleicRemote.xcodeproj \
-scheme NucleicRemote \
-destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 17 Pro' build
Or open NucleicRemote.xcodeproj in Xcode and run. To pair, start the sync server on the Mac
(Nucleic ▸ Settings ▸ Add iPhone shows the QR), then scan it. On a real device, both must be
on the same Wi‑Fi.
Status
The full pair → list → subscribe → approve → reconnect path is implemented and the protocol/
server side is covered by tests in Tests/NucleicProtocolTests and Tests/NucleicCoreTests.
Push notifications / Live Activity (UX_IOS §5.1/§5.3) are the M5 follow-up (needs the relay).
