* Nearby notes: tap-to-reveal before any relay REQ, plus shared subscription pool The nearby-notes counter used to open a live building-precision (precision-8) geohash REQ to the closest geo relays whenever the mesh public timeline was visible — a passive location side-channel with no opt-in. Now nothing subscribes until one explicit act reveals the counter for the session: tapping the new "check for notes left here" line on the empty mesh timeline (static, no network), opening the notices sheet's geo tab, or a successful /drop. The app-info setting stays the default-ON kill switch and still gates /drop. Subscription hygiene alongside: - LocationNotesManager.deinit now unsubscribes its live REQ (hopping to the main actor like the timer teardown) instead of only invalidating timers. - New refcounted LocationNotesPool dedupes the counter's and the notices sheet's identical 9-cell kind-1 REQs into one shared manager per geohash; both callers release-and-reacquire instead of retargeting in place, and the sheet releases its ref on dismissal. The reveal affordance is localized across all 29 catalog locales, and new NearbyNotesCounterTests cover the no-REQ-before-reveal contract, the 9-cell filter, NIP-40 expiry handling, single unsubscribe on deactivate, and pool refcounting. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Review fixes: permission-gate the hint, exclude building cell from pre-reveal sampling, explicit-act reveal only Fixes the verified review findings on the tap-to-reveal PR: - Permission dead-end: the "check for notes left here" hint now renders only when location permission is already authorized (it never prompts). Previously a location-denied install could tap it, flip the sticky revealed flag, and get nothing for the rest of the session because retarget() guards on authorization. Predicate lives on NearbyNotesCounter.offersRevealHint(permissionState:) and is reactive to the published permission state. - Building-cell sampling: background geohash sampling subscribed geo-sample-<gh> for every regional level including the precision-8 building cell, pre-reveal — contradicting the claim that nothing building-precision hits a relay before the explicit act. GeoChannelCoordinator now excludes the building level until NearbyNotesCounter.revealed (injectable publisher for tests); coarser levels keep the nearby-conversation hint and participant counts working, and bookmarks stay exempt (bookmarking is explicit). - Implicit reveal: opening the notices sheet no longer reveals — the sheet auto-lands on the geo tab whenever a location channel is selected, so browsing a remote geohash and opening notices revealed the LOCAL building subscription. reveal() now fires only on the person actively picking the geo segment, and only when the sheet has a geo scope (the empty-mesh hint tap and /drop stay as before). - Subscription hygiene: switching the sheet geo → mesh releases the pooled notes manager (the REQ was left streaming behind the mesh board); switching back re-acquires from the pool. The dismissal release stays balanced — liveGeoManager is nil after the tab-switch release. - VoiceOver: the hint button exposes the plain localized action text instead of the decorated "* 📍 … *" label. - Removed LocationNotesManager.setGeohash: zero callers, and calling it on a pooled instance would corrupt the pool's keying and refcounts. New tests: hint permission gate, explicit-geo-tab reveal contract, building-cell sampling exclusion before/after reveal, pool release/re-acquire round trip. Full suite (1467) green; iOS simulator build green. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Deflake peer-snapshot binding waits: longTimeout for the multi-hop pipeline CI failed once on initialization_bindsPeerSnapshotsIntoAllPeers: the snapshot -> allPeers binding crosses the mock transport's unstructured Task, UnifiedPeerService.updatePeers, a receive(on: main), and another Task { @MainActor } in bindPeerService — all contending with every parallel worker. On the failing runner the whole suite took 10.1s (usually ~4.4s locally), so the positive 5s defaultTimeout wait lost the race. That's exactly the case TestConstants.longTimeout documents; passing runs return as soon as the condition holds and never pay it. Not caused by the tap-to-reveal changes: nothing on that pipeline was touched, and 20 full parallel-suite loops each on the branch and on origin/main reproduce zero failures locally. The two sibling waits on the same pipeline in this file get the same timeout.

Test Harness Guide
This test suite uses an in-memory networking harness to make end-to-end and integration tests deterministic, fast, and race-free without touching production code.
In-Memory Bus
- File:
bitchatTests/Mocks/MockBLEService.swift - Registry/Adjacency: Global
registrymapspeerIDto aMockBLEServiceinstance;adjacencyrecords simulated links between peers. - Setup: Call
MockBLEService.resetTestBus()insetUp()to clear state between tests. - Topology: Use
simulateConnectedPeer(_:)andsimulateDisconnectedPeer(_:)to add/remove links.connectFullMesh()helpers in tests build larger topologies. - Handlers: Tests can observe data via
messageDeliveryHandler(decodedBitchatMessage) andpacketDeliveryHandler(rawBitchatPacket). - De‑duplication: A thread-safe
seenMessageIDsprevents duplicate deliveries during flooding/relays.
Broadcast Flooding
- Flag:
MockBLEService.autoFloodEnabled - Intent: When
true, public broadcasts propagate across the entire connected component (ignores TTL for reach) while still de‑duping to prevent loops. - Usage: Enabled in Integration tests (
setUp) to simulate large-network broadcast; disabled in E2E tests to keep routing explicit and verify TTL behavior (seePublicChatE2ETests.testZeroTTLNotRelayed).
Rehandshake Flow (Noise)
- Why: The legacy NACK recovery path was removed; recovery now relies on Noise session rehandshake after decrypt failure or desync.
- Manager:
NoiseSessionManagermanages per-peer sessions. - Pattern: On decrypt failure, proactively clear the local session and re-initiate a handshake. The peer accepts and replaces their session.
- Test:
IntegrationTests.testRehandshakeAfterDecryptionFailure- Corrupts ciphertext to induce a decrypt error.
- Calls
removeSession(for:)on the initiator’s manager beforeinitiateHandshake(with:)to avoidalreadyEstablished. - Verifies encrypt/decrypt succeeds post-rehandshake.
Tips
- Determinism: Add small async delays only where handler installation/topology changes could race the first send.
- Scoping: Keep
autoFloodEnabledtoggled only within Integration tests; always reset intearDown()to avoid cross-test contamination. - Direct vs Relay: Private messages target a specific peer when adjacent; otherwise they are surfaced to neighbors for relay and, if known, also delivered to the target.
Quick Start
- Create nodes and connect them:
let svc = MockBLEService(); svc.myPeerID = "PEER1"svc.simulateConnectedPeer("PEER2")
- Observe messages:
svc.messageDeliveryHandler = { msg in /* asserts */ }
- Enable broadcast flooding for Integration suites only:
MockBLEService.autoFloodEnabled = true
