* feat: Add Korean localization and convert to UTF-8 format
Korean Language Support:
- Add complete Korean (ko) localization with 191 strings from PR #686
- Include all app strings: UI, features, system messages, alerts
- Include all share extension strings: status messages, errors
- Verified 100% translation coverage for Korean locale
UTF-8 Format Conversion:
- Convert 23,047 Unicode escape sequences to readable UTF-8 characters
- Transform \u sequences (e.g. \u0625\u063a\u0644\u0627\u0642) to native text (إغلاق)
- Improve maintainability across all 15 supported locales
- Preserve all existing translations while enhancing readability
Locales supported: en, ar, de, es, fr, he, id, it, ja, ko, ne, pt-BR, ru, uk, zh-Hans
* test: Enhance dynamic localization test framework
Dynamic Test Framework:
- Replace hardcoded locale tests with data-driven approach
- Add testLocalizationExpectedValues() for dynamic locale validation
- Add testConfiguredLocalesCompleteness() for coverage verification
- Tests now read configuration from PrimaryLocalizationKeys.json
Expanded Test Coverage:
- Increase from 14 to 33 key validations (135% increase)
- Add critical UI strings: common actions, app info, security, sharing
- Cover 364 total string validations across 15 locales
- Include Korean validation with native Korean expected values
Test Categories Added:
- Common UI: cancel, close, copy actions
- App Info: encryption, offline features, app name
- Bluetooth: permission and settings alerts
- Security: verification badges and actions
- Share Extension: all status and error messages
- Content Actions: accessibility and user actions
Maintains 100% test success rate across all supported locales.
* fix: Convert plural strings to correct xcstrings format
Three plural strings (content.accessibility.people_count,
location_channels.row_title, location_notes.header) were using
incorrect format causing runtime String(format:) errors.
Migrated from stringUnit.variations structure to proper
substitutions.variations format across all 14 languages.
* refactor(l10n): migrate to native String(localized:) APIs
Remove L10n.string wrapper in favor of Swift's native localization APIs.
Migrate 100+ localization call sites to use String(localized:) and String(localized:defaultValue:) with string interpolation.
- Update catalog to use interpolation syntax (\(var)) instead of format specifiers (%@)
- Migrate simple strings to String(localized:)
- Migrate strings with arguments to String(localized:defaultValue:) with interpolation
- Keep format strings for plural substitutions (String(format:locale:))
- Remove bitchat/Utils/Localization.swift
Net result: -407 insertions, +130 deletions across 15 files
* fix(l10n): correct interpolation to use format strings
Interpolation in String(localized:defaultValue:) doesn't work as expected -
the interpolation happens at the call site before localization lookup.
Convert dynamic strings to use String(format:String(localized:),args) pattern:
- Update catalog entries from \(var) syntax to %@ placeholders
- Wrap String(localized:) calls with String(format:locale:) for dynamic values
- Affects 17 strings across 6 files
This fixes UI showing literal "\(geohash)" text instead of actual values.
* chore(l10n): remove invalid catalog entries
Remove auto-extracted literal strings (@, #, ✔︎, @%@, bitchat/) that were
generated without proper localization structure. These caused test
decoding failures.
* fix(l10n): remove unused auto-extracted format string
Remove '%@/%@' key that was auto-extracted by Xcode but never used.
This key only existed in English causing locale parity test failures
across all 13 other languages.
Fixes locale parity tests - all 8 localization tests now pass with
only expected failures (incomplete translations in some locales).
* fix(l10n): copy format string to all locales for 100% completion
Add %@/%@ format string to all 14 non-English locales. Format strings
are locale-independent so using the same value everywhere is correct.
This brings all locales to 100% completion (189/189 strings) to prevent
Xcode from reporting incomplete translations when building.
* fix(l10n): prevent auto-extraction of UI literals
Use Text(verbatim:) for non-localizable UI elements:
- App branding ("bitchat/")
- Symbols (@, #, ✔︎)
- Dynamic usernames (@username)
- Count ratios (reached/total)
This prevents Xcode from auto-extracting these literals into the
String Catalog when building through Xcode GUI, which was causing
locales to show 96% completion instead of 100%.
* chore(l10n): remove auto-extracted UI literal entries
Delete 5 auto-extracted keys from catalog that are now using Text(verbatim:):
- @, #, ✔︎, %@, %@/%@
These were showing as stale/incomplete in Xcode causing 97% completion.
All locales now at 100% (188/188 strings).
* fix(l10n): prevent AttributedString from extracting @ symbol
Use string interpolation "\\(at)" instead of literal "@" in
AttributedString to prevent Xcode from auto-extracting it to the
String Catalog during build.
This was the last string causing locales to show 99% instead of 100%.
* fix(l10n): add %@ as non-translatable key in all locales
Mark %@ as non-translatable and add to all 15 locales with same value.
This prevents Xcode from showing incomplete translations when it
auto-extracts this format specifier during GUI builds.
All locales remain at 100% (189/189 strings).
* refactor: move Localizable.xcstrings to bitchat root
Move bitchat/Localization/Localizable.xcstrings to bitchat/ (after LaunchScreen)
and remove empty Localization directory.
* fix(test): update catalog path in localization tests
Update test paths from bitchat/Localization/Localizable.xcstrings to
bitchat/Localizable.xcstrings after moving the file.

* Sign public broadcasts; verify relayed messages via persisted signing keys; keep scheduled relays in sparse graphs and speed their jitter; persist announce signing key for offline auth; add short backoff after disconnect errors to reduce reconnect thrash
* Add connected vs reachable model: retain peers after link drop, expire after reachability window; expose all peers in snapshots; compute isReachable in UI; add meshReachable state and sorting; avoid removing peers on link events; notify UI on stale removals
* ContentView: handle new .meshReachable connection state in header icon switch (exhaustive switch fix)
* Logs: tag relayed announces as 'Reachable via mesh' and annotate public message logs with (direct|mesh) path for easier field analysis
* Fix syntax error: remove stray else/log inserted into writeOrEnqueue; keep logs clean
* UI: use 'point.3.connected.trianglepath.dotted' for mesh-reachable; change people count to include connected+reachable (exclude Nostr-only)
* UI: switch to 'point.3.filled.connected.trianglepath.dotted' for mesh-reachable icons in list and header
* Reachability: reduce retention to 21s for all peers (verified and unverified) to minimize stale presence
* mesh DMs/acks: route to reachable peers; queue READ/DELIVERED until handshake; add Transport.isPeerReachable; UI: hide offline non-mutuals; DM header: better name fallback + show transport + encryption icons; fix NostrTransport conformance
* Verification sheet: compute encryption status and fingerprint using short mesh ID mapping (fix 'not encrypted/handshake' for DMs with stable key)
* Announce cadence: faster discovery (4s), sparse 15±4s, dense 30±8s; initial 0.6s; post-subscribe 50ms; min-force 150ms; maintenance 5s; proactive announces on handshake + recent-traffic nudge
* Relay: increase broadcast TTL cap in sparse graphs to 6; tighten jitter for handshake (10–35ms) and directed (20–60ms) relays
* Range/robustness: store-and-forward for directed packets (15s) with flush on new links + periodic; announces: no subset + afterglow re-announce on first-seen; adaptive scanning: force ON when <=2 neighbors or recent traffic
* Fix warnings: remove unused msgID and unused mutable var in directed spool flush
* Announces: TTL 7 (sparse only) via RelayController; no fanout subset for announces; neighbor-change rebroadcast of last 2–3 announces. Fragments: faster pacing (5ms global, 4ms directed).
* Peer list: real-time icon updates by publishing snapshots on connectivity checks; add unread message indicator (envelope) next to peers with unread DMs
* UI: unread envelope uses orange; hasUnreadMessages checks Nostr conv key for peers with known Nostr pubkeys (geohash DM consistency)
* Logs/robustness: debounce disconnect notifications (1.5s), debounce 'reconnected' logs (2s), add weak-link cooldown after timeouts on very weak RSSI (<= -90)
* Peer icons: faster, accurate reachability\n\n- Run connectivity checks every maintenance tick (5s)\n- Publish peer snapshots on central unsubscribe for instant UI refresh\n- Lower inactivity timeout to 8s and disconnect debounce to 0.9s\n- Gate reachability on mesh-attached (>=1 direct link); no links => no reachable peers\n- Keep 21s retention for verified/unverified, but only when attached to mesh\n\nImproves list responsiveness when walking out of range and prevents stale 'reachable' states when isolated.

* NIP-17/44: adopt NIP-44 v2 (XChaCha20-Poly1305, v2: base64url), switch rumor kind to 14, randomize BIP-340 aux; add XChaCha20Poly1305Compat and wire-up
* Nostr DMs: ensure delivered/read acks are sent even without Noise key mapping by falling back to direct Nostr (geohash-style) acks to sender pubkey
* NIP-44 v2 decrypt: try both Y parities for x-only sender pubkeys (even then odd) to fix unwrap authentication failures
* Tests: add NIP-44 v2 ACK round-trip tests (delivered/read) using bitchat1 embedding and gift-wrap decrypt path
* UI: fix DM autoscroll IDs by using dm:<peer>|<id> for private chat item IDs and preserve anchors, ensuring scrollTo targets exist when opening/switching/new messages
* UI: fix string interpolation in DM/geohash context keys (remove escaped interpolation) to resolve 'unused ch' warnings and ensure proper IDs
* UI: MeshPeerList shows transport state icon: radio for mesh-connected, purple globe for mutual favorite/Nostr; fallback dim person for others

* Remove link previews: link URLs inline\n\n- Delete LinkPreviewView and all references\n- Strip preview usage from ContentView\n- Make detected URLs tappable via .link attribute\n- Add MessageTextHelpers for tokens/length checks\n- Wire helpers into iOS/macOS targets
* Peer list UX: match message colors, use map pin icon, stable ordering\n\n- Color list names and icons with same peer color as messages\n- Default icon mappin; teleported uses face.dashed (iOS)\n- Geohash: move teleported peers to bottom\n- Maintain stable order: append new peers, remove missing\n- Mesh list: replace state icons with colored mappin/person
* Fix peer list build errors: remove ambiguous Set type, avoid guard in ViewBuilder, remove duplicate bindings, and simplify person lookup
* Peer list: remove onChange expressions to avoid type-check issues; rely on ObservedObject updates
* Peer lists: simplify view structure to satisfy SwiftUI type checker (replace Group with VStack, flatten body)
* Peer lists: move ordering mutations to onAppear/onChange, keep body pure; fix result builder errors
* Fix: remove trailing modifiers outside if/else to avoid ViewBuilder type issues
* Color parity: fix seed cache to include color scheme; normalize Nostr seeds; switch to mappin.circle icon
* Peer colors: ensure exact match with message colors\n\n- Mesh list uses same seed logic as messages (getNoiseKeyForShortID fallback)\n- Color cache keyed by theme; normalize nostr seeds\n- Icons: use mappin.and.ellipse (default) and face.dashed for teleported\n- Teleport tag: accept "teleported" in addition to "teleport" and presence events
* Fix geohash color mismatch: populate nostrKeyMapping before building messages in resubscribe; also honor t,teleport tag for teleported state
* Message actions: username tap opens sheet via clickable AttributedString; message tap inserts @mention; rename to 'direct message'
* Cashu UX: suppress 'Show more' when message contains a Cashu token (chips handle rendering)
* Cashu detection: broaden regex (allow '.') + shorter min length; avoid long-text fallback when Cashu present so chips render and no full blob
* Geohash levels: rename region->province, country->region; update labels, precision, UI, manager mapping, tests; add Codable backward-compat for renamed cases
* Fix braces in LocationChannel.swift: close enum before extension to satisfy file-scope declarations
* Geohash links: make #geohash tappable and open that channel (bitchat://geohash/<gh>); handle in ContentView.onOpenURL with validation and selection
* Underline tappable #geohash mentions for clarity
* Geochat: sanitize timeline on channel switch to remove any blank-content entries (prevents blank rows)
* Xcode project: sync sources after UI changes (remove LinkPreview, add helpers, update build refs)

* fix: mark handlePublicMessage as @MainActor to call isMessageBlocked safely
* ui(block): show blocked indicator (nosign icon) next to blocked peers in mesh and geohash lists
* fix(geo-block): early-drop blocked pubkeys on geohash receive; filter blocked users from participants list
* fix(geo-block): purge existing geohash messages/DMs on block; block directly from chat using Nostr sender ID when available

* Feature: assign stable per-peer colors (non-self) across mesh/geohash/DM; keep self orange and mentions-to-me orange; cache colors
* Fix compile warnings: remove unused primaryColor in formatMessageAsText; remove unused CryptoKit import; mark peerColor/formatMessageAsText @MainActor to call main-actor helpers
* Fix: re-import CryptoKit for SHA256 usage in ChatViewModel
* Peer lists: apply same per-peer colors as chat (self orange); suffix uses lighter variant; geohash uses Nostr pubkey, mesh uses Noise key
* Fix warning: remove unused peerNicknames in MeshPeerList
* UI: add 'mention' action in message actions to prefill input with @nick#abcd and focus input
* UX: long-press a message to prefill @mention with sender's full nick#abcd and focus input
* UX: remove long-press mention; add context menu 'Copy message' that copies only the message body (no nick/timestamp)
* Geo teleported: robust tag detection (accept 't', 'teleport', and boolean-like values); mark self on send when tagging; should fix peer list icons
* Logs: add GeoTeleport diagnostics (incoming tags, self/peer marking, counts) to debug peer list dashed icon behavior
* Teleport persistence: store per-geohash teleported state in UserDefaults; initialize on startup; OR with location-derived status; sheet writes persisted flag on select/teleport

* Geohash peers: show face.dashed for self when channel selected via teleport; face.smiling otherwise
* Geo presence: broadcast 'teleport' tag on geochat join; track teleported participants and show face.dashed for them in peer list
* Teleport tag: attach to actual geohash chat events (sendMessage, emotes, screenshots) instead of separate presence; remove presence emit
* Fix: show face.dashed for any teleported peer (not just self) in geohash list
* Geo list: show self immediately on channel switch and mark teleported state; clear teleported flags on leaving geochat
* Teleport persistence: recompute teleported based on current location vs selected geohash; add face.dashed icon to Teleport button label
* Styling: use lighter green/orange for #abcd suffix after nicknames in all chats (senders and @mentions)
* Peer lists: render #abcd suffix as lighter green/orange (self orange) in geohash and mesh lists
* Toolbar: move unread icon next to #channel badge and allow dynamic width; Peer lists: increase top spacing before first item
* Toolbar: prevent geohash channel badge from truncating; give it layout priority and fixed width
* Toolbar: make unread envelope independent from channel button (sits left of badge); fix accidental taps opening channel selector
* Toolbar: make unread envelope open most recent unread/private chat directly
* Geohash peer list: render self row fully orange (icon, base, suffix, '(you)')

* Mesh robustness: link-aware fragmentation, relay jitter, connection budget, adaptive scanning; fix BLE queue deadlock
- Link-aware fragmentation using per-link write/notify limits
- Directed fragments for one-to-one; exclude from relays
- Add relay jitter with cancel-on-duplicate to reduce floods
- Cap central links and rate-limit connect attempts with queue
- Foreground duty-cycled scanning when connected; continuous when isolated
- Fix deadlock by avoiding sync on BLE queue when already on it
- Silence Keychain var->let warnings
