Enabling Continue agents from mobile could stop messages reaching an existing Paseo/SDK-hosted Claude session. Those processes publish kind: interactive, so Relay incorrectly switched them to native mod submission. Claude can refuse that submission after its host interrupts it; the same message still reaches the session through its ordinary inbox with mobile continuation off.

Require positive terminal attachment through the existing process predicate, excluding SDK, print and pipe-driven sessions (including pipes without SDK flags). Use the same eligibility check for discovery and authenticated native calls, preserving those sessions' ordinary inbox route. Terminal native continuation stays available. Recognized native refusals now produce bounded, actionable notices, negotiated per action so older plugins/cores remain compatible. Refused and uncertain submissions are never replayed or rerouted. A rejected first submission revokes its provisional control token; previously confirmed control from an earlier accepted turn remains valid. Regression tests exercise the authenticated acknowledgement route, durable failure notices, token revocation, and ordinary SDK delivery across on/off/on toggles.

Validation:

  • 77 Rust mobile tests pass in both default and desktop library feature configurations; all 47 JavaScript harness tests and 5 delivery-source/dispatch tests pass. Public-source and formatting checks and Veto review pass.
  • Read-only probe of the actual finn-mini processes: Paseo ms-lead keeps its ordinary caller route and has no native mobile capability; the terminal session retains both.
  • Disposable Claude 2.1.311 SDK reproduction: submission is admitted while idle, then explicitly dropped after an SDK interrupt. This matches the provider's documented stop/host lifecycle.
  • Full real-Claude 2.1.318 terminal smoke passes on the local Mac: desktop input → native mobile turn → denied Write permission (one ticket, 45-second wait) → desktop return, same session/process/model/cwd/tools, no global model changes, process reaped. This uses a test bridge; it does not test phone UI or Cloud authentication.
  • finn-mini's disposable terminal smoke was blocked by its login/locked Keychain; that process was reaped. No production core was replaced. finn-mini retains the mobile-off workaround until a reviewed desktop build includes the fix.
  • iOS lead confirmed existing MobileHandoffNotice renders these bounded server failure notices without client changes.

The desktop core pin update follows after this change lands in Relay.

Walkthrough

Claude native mobile input now requires eligible session and process details. Mobile handoff acknowledgements can include recognized refusal codes. The journal stores refusals for failed deliveries, returns fixed notices, and clears matching provisional control. Documentation describes routing and refusal handling.

Changes: Claude mobile handoff

Layer / File(s) Summary
Native input eligibility
crates/relay-node/src/relay/claude_mobile_plugin.rs, crates/relay-node/src/relay/local/..., crates/relay-node/src/relay/claude_mobile_plugin/tests.rs, crates/relay-node/src/relay/local/.../tests.rs
Native input eligibility now checks session kind, SDK entrypoint, and terminal interactivity. Tests cover accepted sessions and exclusions, including SDK-style input and non-terminal processes.
Refusal acknowledgement protocol
crates/relay-node/src/relay/claude_mobile_plugin/hooks/register.mjs, crates/relay-node/src/relay/outbound/mobile_handoff.rs, crates/relay-node/scripts/test-claude-mobile-plugin.mjs
The hook maps recognized refusal reasons to codes and sends a code only when refusal_codes is enabled. The endpoint validates optional codes and records them for settled deliveries. Tests cover recognized and unrecognized reasons, compatibility, and invalid acknowledgements.
Persisted refusal outcomes
crates/relay-node/src/relay/mobile_handoff.rs, crates/relay-node/src/relay/mobile_handoff/*, crates/relay-node/README.md, CHANGELOG.md
The journal stores refusals on failed deliveries and returns fixed notices. A failed acknowledgement clears matching unconfirmed control while retaining confirmed generations. Tests cover persisted outcomes, control tokens, and inbox routing. Documentation describes routing and refusal handling.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

The change preserves inbox routing for excluded sessions and adds bounded refusal notices and provisional-control cleanup. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains established; merge after normal checks.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 16.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 25 functions across 15 files. (2 skipped: 2 unsupported.)

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description clearly explains the change and includes detailed validation results. However, it omits the required RelayFlow Proof section and does not provide the required Test Plan checklist. The Screenshots section is also absent, although it may be optional.

Resolution

Add the required Test Plan section with the applicable checklist items. Add the RelayFlow Proof section with Change type set to feature or bugfix and one RelayFlow case under tests/relayflows/cases/<case-id>/, or use non-functional and n/a only if runtime behavior is unchanged. Add a Screenshots section if applicable.

A rabbit checks the session gate,
Then sends a note, but does not wait.
If Claude says stop, the notice is clear,
No refused message returns from here.
Confirmed control stays in its place,
And inbox routes keep their pace.

436-439: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Poor tradeoff

Add a handler-level test for refusal persistence.

The journal test calls record_refusal directly. No test sends a failed acknowledgement with a refusal field through mobile_handoff_ack. Removing the recording call in that handler keeps the suite passing, so a regression in the wire-to-journal path would go unnoticed. Add a test that posts a failed acknowledgement with a recognized refusal to the ack route and asserts the persisted refusal.

130-135: Trivial · Maintainability & Code Quality · Heavy lift

Add a delivery test for an SDK session excluded from native roots.

The new test checks only that read returns no native root and that claude::registry keeps the session. No test sends a mobile-enabled message to an SDK-entrypoint session and asserts that its peer inbox receives it. A regression that drops the message, or selects native submission, would still pass.
