Summary

Mobile canvas chat did not show agent replies in real time — the user had to navigate away and back, or hard-refresh, to see new messages. Desktop updated live. Root-caused to a missing WebSocket wake-recovery path; fixed in the shared socket layer so desktop and mobile share one realtime path (the "shared library, only styling differs" expectation is correct).

Root cause (file:line)

• Mechanism = WebSocket (not polling/SSE): singleton ReconnectingSocket in canvas/src/store/socket.ts:69, URL deriveWsBaseUrl()+"/ws" (socket.ts:7). ws.onmessage → applyEvent + emitSocketEvent (socket.ts:137-152). Component subscription via useSocketEvent→subscribeSocketEvents (socket-events.ts:52). Chat replies append to the agentMessages store on AGENT_MESSAGE (canvas-events.ts:411) / A2A_RESPONSE (canvas-events.ts:483).
• Not forked code: MobileChat.tsx:237 and desktop ChatTab.tsx:139 both use the same useChatSocket + useChatHistory hooks. Confirmed shared.
• Root cause: the WS client had no visibilitychange / pageshow / online / focus recovery anywhere (exhaustive grep of canvas/src). Reconnect was driven solely by ws.onclose (socket.ts:154-166) plus a 30s health-check and 10s fallback poll whose setInterval timers only run while alive. iOS Safari / Chrome-mobile freeze the page and its timers and tear the WS down without reliably firing onclose when the tab is backgrounded or the device locks. On thaw: socket is dead, no reconnect was scheduled, timers were suspended — nothing re-arms. Every AGENT_MESSAGE during suspension is lost. rehydrate() only re-pulls /workspaces status, not chat (socket.ts:233-236); useChatHistory fetches DB history mount-only (useChatHistory.ts:81-84). So missed replies never back-fill until remount (navigate away+back) or full refresh — exactly the reported workaround. Desktop keeps the page alive across tab switches so its onclose-driven reconnect works, hence it appears realtime.

The fix (minimal, shared)

• socket.ts: ReconnectingSocket installs visibilitychange/pageshow/online/focus listeners that force a reconnect when the page is visible/foregrounded and the socket is not OPEN/CONNECTING. SSR-safe (typeof window/document guards). Desktop effectively no-ops here (its onclose already handled it). Listeners detached on disconnect().
• socket-events.ts: adds a subscribeSocketResume/emitSocketResume signal, emitted by onopen only when the open follows a real loss (gated by everConnected so the first connect — already covered by the mount-time history fetch — does not fire it).
• useChatHistory.ts: subscribes to resume and re-runs loadInitial(), back-filling the persisted messages missed while frozen — exactly what a remount does today, automatically. Shared by desktop ChatTab and MobileChat.

No mobile fork; the recovery lives in the singleton socket so both surfaces share it.

Verification status (honest)

• Proven: static code analysis of the full realtime path; 9 new unit tests in socket.test.ts simulate background-suspend + visibilitychange/pageshow/online/focus transitions and assert reconnect, resume emission (and the first-connect/ desktop-onclose paths), and listener teardown. Full canvas suite green: 3315 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed. npm run build green.
• NOT proven (needs CTO real-device confirmation): the actual iOS-Safari / Chrome-mobile background-suspend → foreground recovery on a physical device. This class of bug cannot be faithfully reproduced in jsdom/node; the unit tests model the lifecycle, they do not exercise a real mobile browser. Requesting CTO confirmation on a real device (background the tab / lock the device while an agent is replying, return, verify the reply appears without a refresh).

SOP checklist

Comprehensive testing performed: 9 new socket.test.ts unit tests covering: reconnect on each wake event after a silent kill; no churn while healthy; ignore the hide transition; resume emitted only after a real loss (not first connect); resume on ordinary onclose reconnect (desktop path unchanged); wake-listener teardown on disconnect. Full suite 3315 pass / 0 fail. Edge cases: page-hidden transition, first-connect suppression, StrictMode double-invoke (existing disposed guard reused).

Local-postgres E2E run: N/A — pure-frontend canvas change (WS client lifecycle + a React hook subscription). No Go handlers, schema, migrations, or DB-touching code modified; no local-postgres E2E surface exists for this diff.

Staging-smoke verified or pending: Pending / scheduled post-merge — staging canvas deploy + the e2e-staging-canvas workflow run after merge to staging. The fix is browser-runtime behavior; the staging Playwright chat suite (desktop+mobile projects) exercises the chat path on the deployed build.

Root-cause not symptom: Missing WebSocket wake-recovery (no visibilitychange/pageshow/online/focus reconnect) causes the mobile socket to stay silently dead after a background-suspend; fix restores recovery in the shared singleton rather than papering over with a mobile-only poll.

Five-Axis review walked: Correctness — reconnect only when not OPEN/CONNECTING, resume gated on a real prior loss, SSR guards, listener teardown on disconnect. Readability — comments explain the mobile-suspend mechanism at each seam. Architecture — recovery in the singleton socket (shared), not forked per-surface; reuses existing pub/sub pattern. Security — no new network surface, no new inputs, no token/secret handling; listeners removed on teardown (no leak). Performance — desktop path unchanged (no-ops); resume re-fetches one history page only on genuine recovery, not per render.

No backwards-compat shim / dead code added: No. No compatibility shim, no feature flag, no dead branch. New code paths are exercised by the added tests. _resetSocketResumeListenersForTests is test-only and parallels the existing _resetSocketEventListenersForTests.

Memory/saved-feedback consulted: feedback_fix_root_not_symptom (fixed the missing-recovery root cause, not a mobile-only symptom patch); feedback_grep_memory_before_investigating (grepped memory first); reference_molecule_core_actions_gitea_only (verified CI/SOP from .gitea/, .github/ is dead); feedback_verify_branch_protection_via_db_not_named_list (queried protected_branch directly: base=staging, required contexts = CI / all-required + sop-checklist / all-items-acked, merge whitelist = uid 74 devops-engineer); feedback_gitea_review_api_pending_bug, feedback_route_approvals_to_team_personas_not_orchestrator_sub_agents, feedback_never_admin_merge_bypass (merge discipline).

fix(canvas): mobile chat realtime — WS wake-recovery + resume back-fill ... 31fedd50af

Root cause: agent chat replies arrive ONLY via live AGENT_MESSAGE /
A2A_RESPONSE WebSocket events (store/socket.ts ReconnectingSocket).
The socket had NO visibilitychange/pageshow/online/focus recovery
anywhere — reconnect was driven solely by ws.onclose. iOS Safari /
Chrome-mobile freeze the page and silently tear the WS down WITHOUT
firing onclose when backgrounded / device-locked; on thaw nothing
re-arms (onclose never ran, interval timers were suspended), so the
socket is dead and every reply during suspension is lost.
store.rehydrate() only re-pulls /workspaces status, not chat, and
useChatHistory fetches DB history mount-only — so missed replies
never back-fill until remount (navigate away+back) or hard refresh.
Desktop never hits this (its onclose fires promptly). Not forked
code: MobileChat and desktop ChatTab share useChatSocket /
useChatHistory; the divergence is purely mobile browser lifecycle.

Fix (shared by desktop + mobile, restores the unified path):
- ReconnectingSocket installs visibilitychange/pageshow/online/focus
  listeners that force a reconnect when the page is foregrounded and
  the socket isn't OPEN/CONNECTING (no-ops on desktop where onclose
  already handled it; SSR-safe via typeof guards).
- On an open that follows a real loss, emit a socket-resume signal.
- useChatHistory subscribes to resume and re-runs loadInitial(), so
  chat threads back-fill the persisted messages missed while frozen —
  exactly what a remount does today, automatically.

Verification: code analysis + 9 new unit tests (socket.test.ts)
simulating background-suspend + visibility/pageshow/online/focus
transitions, asserting reconnect + resume emission + listener
teardown; full canvas suite green (3315 passed, 0 fail); npm run
build green. Mobile real-device confirmation still needed (cannot
be proven without a physical device) — see PR body.

APPROVE — mobile WebSocket resilience fix.

What this changes

useChatHistory.ts: subscribes to subscribeSocketResume event and re-runs loadInitial() when the singleton WebSocket recovers from a suspend (e.g. mobile browser backgrounded then resumed). Previously, chat history accumulated while the socket was dead was never back-filled — the store only re-pulled workspace status, not chat.

socket-events.ts / socket.ts: adds subscribeSocketResume event and emits it on reconnect.

Why this is correct

• Shared hook consumed by both ChatTab and MobileChat ✅
• Consistent with how desktop handles remount/navigate-away-and-back ✅
• No UI changes — purely data-layer ✅
• 199 new tests in socket.test.ts ✅

Mobile UX impact

Users on mobile whose browser was suspended (tab-switched, screen-locked) will now see missed messages when returning to the chat, rather than a stale view. Good fix.

[core-qa-agent] APPROVED — Canvas WebSocket fix: adds socket resume back-fill to useChatHistory hook. Handles mobile browser background-suspend that silently kills the socket while page is frozen — missed AGENT_MESSAGE/A2A_RESPONSE messages are recovered by re-running loadInitial() on resume. 4 files, +384/-1: useChatHistory.ts (+17 production), socket-events.ts (subscribeSocketResume), socket.ts (wake-resume), socket.test.ts (+~166 test lines). Desktop ChatTab and MobileChat both benefit (shared hook). Canvas tests pass. e2e: N/A — Canvas-only.

Reviewed changes in MobileSpawn.tsx.

What changed

• Removed isSaaSTenant() call and useEffect dependency on it
• Tier selection now always uses tierCode(list[0].tier) instead of isSaaS ? "T4" : tierCode(...)
• useEffect dependency array changed from [isSaaS] to []

No accessibility impact

These are purely functional/data changes — no JSX/UI changes. No ARIA attributes modified.

No overlap with mobile ARIA work

My PRs #1438, #1441, and #1436 touch MobileSpawn.tsx for aria-hidden decorative icons and focus-visible rings. This PR only modifies the TypeScript logic (imports, useEffect, template selection). Clean 3-way merge expected.

One note

Tier defaults to T4 for SaaS tenants. Removing this means SaaS users now get the tier from the template catalog instead. Confirm this is the intended behavior — if SaaS orgs should always spawn T4 workspaces, this change might regress that.

2nd-of-2 non-author approval (second-eyes pass; reviewer = hongming-pc2, not the author).

Independently verified (read the full diff — 4 files, +384/-1):

socket.ts wake-recovery logic is sound:

• 4 wake listeners attached: visibilitychange, pageshow, online, focus — comprehensive for mobile-browser wake signals.
• Hide-transition guard: document.visibilityState !== "visible" returns early — closing during a hide transition would defeat the purpose. ✓
• Healthy-socket short-circuit: readyState === OPEN || CONNECTING returns early — CONNECTING correctly excluded from the reconnect path because an attempt is already in flight.
• forceReconnect() nulls the 4 handlers BEFORE close — prevents a zombie onclose from re-arming the loop after we've already torn down. Critical detail; easy to miss.
• attempt = 0 reset on forceReconnect → exponential backoff doesn't get amplified by repeated wake cycles.
• wasDown set in BOTH paths (wake-handler AND onclose) → covers ordinary network drops in addition to mobile silent-kill.
• emitSocketResume gating: everConnected && wasDown — initial mount-time connect doesn't double-fire with the mount-time history fetch.

Tests cover the right paths:

• MockWebSocket adds correct readyState constants matching real WebSocket spec.
• FakeTarget with addEventListener/removeEventListener/dispatch — minimal but exercises the listener attach/detach contract.
• suspendKill() helper simulates mobile background-suspend (readyState = CLOSED, no onclose fired).
• Test for visibilitychange-triggered reconnect after suspendKill — exact reported scenario from #1428.

useChatHistory.ts back-fill: subscribeSocketResume(() => loadInitial()) — exactly what a navigate-away-and-back does today, but automatic. Singleton-scoped (subscribers list on the shared module), so desktop + mobile both benefit without forking.

MEDIUM follow-ups I'm acknowledging (Wave 2 noted, agree they're not blockers):

1. loadInitial replaces history wholesale → optimistic UI state (draft input not yet sent) could be reset on resume. Edge case; the user's draft text is in a separate component state above useChatHistory, so likely unaffected, but worth a follow-up audit.
2. 10-msg INITIAL_HISTORY_LIMIT horizon → during a long iOS suspend with >10 missed messages, the user has to scroll up (loadOlder) to see older ones. Reasonable trade-off (back-fill must be bounded); if it becomes a frequent complaint, the fix is to widen the limit on resume only.

Required CI green, core-fe already approved. No regressions to IO, no platform-side change.

LGTM. Approving.

Reasonable trade-off (back-fill must be bounded); if it becomes a frequent complaint, the fix is to widen the limit on resume only. **Required CI green, core-fe already approved.** No regressions to IO, no platform-side change. LGTM. Approving.

/sop-ack root-cause: Mobile PWA WS disconnects on iOS app-suspend; on resume, the old code re-fetched 0 history (no resume signal) leaving the user with stale state until manual reload. Wake-handler force-reconnects only when readyState ∉ {OPEN,CONNECTING} AND visibilityState=='visible'; resume signal gated by both everConnected+wasDown to avoid first-mount double-fetch.

/sop-ack no-backwards-compat: Additive: new wake handler + resume signal + visibility/pageshow/online/focus listeners. Existing desktop flow benefits as a side-effect (the onclose path now triggers the same resume). Disconnect() removes the new listeners (no leak). Tests cover both new and existing paths.
