Keep working when the network is hostile, and make the app verifiable
Tier 3 of a protest-hardening review. The BLE mesh is already properly fenced off from network reachability and needs nothing here; every gap is on the internet side, or in how someone gets a build they can trust. Say when Tor is blocked. The bootstrap poll loop simply ended at its 75-second deadline, leaving isStarting true with no further state, so a network that blocks Tor was indistinguishable from a slow one and the UI said "starting tor…" indefinitely. TorManager now exposes bootstrapDidStall and posts .TorBootstrapDidStall, and the app reports that mesh messaging still works while internet delivery is paused. It is cleared on each new start or restart, so a later attempt can report again. Let relays be added by hand. The four built-in relays are well-known clearnet hostnames, which is four names for a censor to block and no recourse short of a new build. NostrRelaySettings persists up to eight additional relays, normalized, .onion accepted, with a settings editor. They join the same target set as the built-ins and are subject to the same activation policy. Removal reconciles against the previous set: the teardown path iterates the current targets, so without that a removed relay's socket and queued sends would linger — covered by a test that fails without it. The merged list is cached rather than recomputed, because allowedRelayList consults it once per candidate URL and would otherwise read UserDefaults inside that loop. Stop stranding people who denied location. The activation gate required location permission or a mutual favorite, but teleporting into a geohash requires neither, so someone with no permission and no favorites could sit in a channel that never connected while Tor and the relays stayed suppressed and nothing said why. Being in a location channel is now a third arm of the gate, in both the activation service and the relay manager's copy of the policy, and leaving the channel closes it again. Stop burning the Tor timeout when Tor is off. GeoRelayDirectory awaited Tor readiness unconditionally, but with the preference off TorManager has been shut down, so every refresh spent the full bootstrap deadline and the directory froze on its cached copy. It now keys on the preference, not on live readiness: Tor wanted but unavailable must still skip the fetch rather than fall back to clearnet. Say what turning Tor off costs. The toggle's copy described it as hiding your IP "for location channels", understating both scope and consequence. It now names private messages too, and while the toggle is off the settings screen states that every relay can see the device IP. Make builds verifiable. There was no release verification of any kind: no signatures, no checksums, no documented procedure. Post-takedown that is the acute gap, because mirrors appear and people install whatever they can find during a shutdown. source-manifest.yml publishes a per-tag SHA-256 manifest with a provenance attestation, self-checking before it publishes, and docs/VERIFYING-A-BUILD.md explains how to verify source and states plainly that compiled builds from anywhere but the App Store cannot be verified. It also records the gaps honestly: no published signing key, no reproducible build, no non-GitHub mirror. docs/TOR-INTEGRATION.md was substantially stale — it documented a torrc, SOCKSPort and ControlPort that the in-process Arti client does not use, and claimed there are no user-visible settings — so it is rewritten, including the deferred gap below. Deferred: no Tor bridges or pluggable transports. arti-client is built without pt-client or bridge-client and bootstraps from stock config, so in a country that blocks Tor outright there is still no circumvention path — only a clear report that there isn't. Closing it needs the Rust features, bridge config through the FFI, and an xcframework rebuild under the pinned toolchain with a provenance update, which is its own change.

Rebuild Arti from audited source with enforced provenance
Vendored arti.xcframework rebuilt from source (Rust 1.96.0, normalized archive metadata for reproducible hashes). New ARTI-BINARY-PROVENANCE.md records toolchain, rebuild steps, and a SHA256 manifest for every file in the xcframework. A new CI workflow turns that policy into a gate: PRs must keep the binary matching the manifest, and binary changes must ship with source/lockfile/build-script evidence. Also raises TorManager.awaitReady's default timeout from 25s to 75s to match the bootstrap monitor deadline - a shorter wait reported "not ready" while Arti was still legitimately bootstrapping, silently stranding queued relay work. Privacy policy, Tor integration doc, and privacy assessment updated to match the current implementation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

tor by default, small (#564)
* feat(tor): Tor-by-default scaffold and integration - Add TorManager with static/dlopen start, torrc generation, SOCKS probe - Add TorURLSession; route Nostr/Web fetches via SOCKS proxy - Add chat system messages for Tor status; show progress (macOS) and ready - Disable ControlPort bootstrap monitor on iOS; keep it on macOS - Make Tor waits non-blocking; avoid main-actor stalls on startup - Queue & flush Nostr subscriptions on relay connect; skip duplicates - Always rewrite torrc at launch to fix iOS container path mismatches - Link libz; add project wiring for tor-nolzma.xcframework - Minor fixes: SOCKS probe resumeOnce guard, entitlement for network.server (macOS) * iOS: deterministic Tor recovery + 100% gating; BLE-first; session rebuild - Restart/wake Tor on foreground via ControlPort (ACTIVE/SHUTDOWN), avoid restarts during bootstrap; add NWPathMonitor to trigger checks - Use NWConnection control polling for GETINFO; remove blocking CFStream readers to avoid QoS inversions; compute readiness from SOCKS + 100% - Rebuild TorURLSession on resume; reset Nostr connections to rebind - Gate all internet after full bootstrap; keep BLE mesh startup fast - Fix Swift 6 capture issues; hop UI updates to @MainActor - Remove Tor progress spam; persist initial "starting tor..." system message * UI: show Tor system messages only in geohash channels (not mesh) - Gate "starting tor..." and readiness/timeout messages to geohash view - Add helper addGeohashOnlySystemMessage() to avoid posting to mesh timeline - Persist system messages in geohash backing store via addPublicSystemMessage() * Relays: treat repeated -1011 handshake failures as permanent; skip reconnects - Classify NSURLErrorBadServerResponse as permanent and stop retrying - Filter permanently-failed relays from subscribe/connect attempts - Avoid reconnect scheduling for permanently failed relays * Embed Tor via tor_api; deterministic restart + Nostr gating; add Tor notifications - Run Tor via tor_api in a dedicated thread with OwningControllerFD - Cleanly stop Tor on background; restart on .active (single instance) - Avoid fallback to tor_main/dlopen; add is-running check to prevent duplicates - Fix argv lifetime in C glue to avoid strcmp crash on start - Gate Nostr connect/subscribe/send until Tor is fully ready - Rebuild URLSession + reset relays after Tor readiness (scene-based) - Remove TorDidBecomeReady double-reset and appDidBecomeActive resubscribe - Add TorWillRestart/TorDidBecomeReady notifications and chat system messages - Debounce path-change restarts; ACTIVE poke first; coalesce subs; cancel stale reconnect timers - Project: add CTorHost.c and TorNotifications.swift to targets; fix libz.tbd path * Defer Nostr setup logs until Tor is ready; fix subscribe coalescing and reconnect generation - Move "Connecting to Nostr relays" log after awaitReady() - Log "Queuing subscription" when Tor not ready;

defer DM subscription until connected - Remove duplicate connect call from ChatViewModel; let scene-based flow connect - Setup DM subscription once on first connection via sink - Reduce early subscription send/cancel noise after Tor restarts * On launch, queue Nostr subscriptions without initiating connects; let centralized connect handle it - In subscribe(), if no connections exist, just list relays and queue subs - Avoids early send/cancel churn before connect() runs post-Tor-ready * Always queue subscriptions and flush on connection; avoid immediate sends - Prevents early send/cancel churn at launch and during reconnects - If relays are already connected, flush immediately; otherwise pending until connected * UI: scope Tor restart messages to geohash channels;
