Phase 6c + task assignment + 6d planning#28
Merged
Conversation
Lands the Phase 6 design spec covering Spotlight + App Intents (6b) and outlining Raycast/Alfred/WidgetKit/idle (6c). Key 6b decisions captured: SPM-built StintIntents.framework embedded via Tauri bundle, bidirectional FFI bridge (extern "C" verbs + @_cdecl indexer notify via dlsym), comprehensive CSSearchableIndex schema across three domain identifiers + NSUserActivity for the running entry, single Focus filter target (default project for new timers) with focus-id-reconciled fallback in verbs::start, and five-layer testing strategy. Also fixes the dangling spec reference in stint_core::verbs::mod that pointed to a never-existed path.
Breaks the Phase 6b spec into ~30 task-by-task steps with TDD discipline, per-task commits, and explicit fallback paths for the known fragility points (SPM spike outcome, framework wrapping, focus-id read API). Spec at docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-25-stint-phase-6-deeper-integration-design.md.
Lands the Package.swift seed for the StintIntents framework and
records the SPM+xcodebuild spike result in the plan.
Spike findings (will inform Tasks G1 + H1 + J3):
- `swift build` alone does NOT run appintentsmetadataprocessor.
xcodebuild against Package.swift (no .xcodeproj needed) does.
Build command:
xcodebuild -scheme StintIntents -configuration Release \
-destination 'platform=macOS' \
-derivedDataPath ./build/derived
- Every App Shortcut phrase must contain \(.applicationName) —
enforced by the processor as a build error.
- Output paths:
Build/Products/Release/PackageFrameworks/StintIntents.framework/
Build/Products/Release/StintIntents.appintents/Metadata.appintents/
- The metadata bundle is separate from the framework; build.rs in
stint-app must copy it into the framework's Versions/A/Resources/
and inject NSAppIntentsPackage=YES into the framework's Info.plist
so macOS auto-discovers intents when the framework is embedded in
Stint.app/Contents/Frameworks/.
A1.fallback (Xcode .xcodeproj) is no longer needed.
Adds stint_core::ffi with a Result-shaped JSON envelope helper, a catch_unwind-wrapped invocation pattern, and stint_free_string for Swift-side memory ownership. Stable error code contract — never renumber: 1 = Invariant (e.g., "a timer is already running") 2 = NotFound (lookup miss on uuid/id) 3 = reserved (Conflict — no current Error variant maps to it) 4 = Serialization (Error::Serde — malformed JSON) 99 = Internal (any other typed Error variant) -1 = Panic (catch_unwind caught a panic) Verb wrappers and settings FFI surfaces land in follow-up tasks; this commit only proves the envelope shape, panic-recovery, and null-safety of stint_free_string.
Adds the 8 verb FFI entry points: start, stop, current, list_entries, list_projects, list_tasks, update_entry, delete_entry. Each takes a JSON params string (where applicable) and writes the envelope into out_json. Heap-owned by Rust; caller frees via stint_free_string. A lazy process-wide multi-threaded tokio runtime + a path-keyed Store cache let synchronous FFI callers block_on async verbs without seeing tokio. The cache is keyed by paths::database_path() so tests can swap STINT_DATA_DIR between runs. Tests cover happy paths, the already-running invariant, current-when- idle (returns null inside ok), stop-with-no-timer (errors), update + delete missing UUIDs (delete is intentionally idempotent — matches the existing verb contract), and malformed/null JSON paths (codes 4 and 1).
Rounds out the FFI surface beyond the verb wrappers: - stint_settings_set/get/clear: opaque key/value passthrough used by Swift's ProjectFocusFilter to persist the (focus_id, project_id) tuple. Get returns *out_json = NULL for absent keys (not an error). - stint_log_warn: Swift→Rust logging into the "stint_intents" tracing target so framework-side warnings show up in stint's existing log surface. - stint_current_focus_id: dlsym lookup for the Swift-exported helper stint_current_focus_id_swift. Returns null when the framework isn't loaded (CLI binary, headless tests), which the start-verb fallback treats as "no current focus". - notify_indexer (Rust → Swift) + IndexerKind enum: dlsym-lookup of swift_indexer_notify, no-op when absent. The verb call sites in a follow-up task will hook into this to push Spotlight delta updates. Adds libc as a direct dep for the dlsym lookups (RTLD_DEFAULT walks the global symbol table — finds Swift exports when the framework is loaded into the same process, returns null otherwise).
Every verb mutation path now pushes a Spotlight index delta after a
successful store write:
- verbs::start → IndexerKind::EntryStarted (payload: EntryView)
- verbs::stop → IndexerKind::EntryStopped (payload: EntryView)
- verbs::update_entry → IndexerKind::EntryUpdated (payload: EntryView)
- verbs::delete_entry → IndexerKind::EntryDeleted (payload: {"local_uuid": "..."})
stint-app's pull_worker pushes ProjectsReplaced + TasksReplaced after
every successful Solidtime down-sync so the Spotlight project/task
slices stay current with archive state changes from the server.
All notifications are no-ops when the Swift framework isn't loaded
(stint-cli, headless tests) — dlsym lookup returns null and the call
returns early. The 22 existing FFI tests still pass, plus full
stint-core suite green.
Also adds crates/stint-core/include/stint_core.h — hand-written C
header consumed by Swift's bridging module. Mirrors the extern "C"
surface in src/ffi.rs and documents the Swift-side @_cdecl symbols
(stint_intents_init, swift_indexer_notify, stint_current_focus_id_swift)
that Rust looks up via dlsym.
When start() is invoked with no project_id, look up "focus.default_project" (a tab-separated "<focus_id>\t<project_id>" tuple written by Swift's ProjectFocusFilter) and apply it only when the stored focus_id matches the currently active macOS focus. Prevents stale defaults from leaking after the user switches focus modes. crates/stint-core/src/focus.rs is the lookup helper. Production path: dlsym into Swift's stint_current_focus_id_swift (no-op when framework absent). Test path: STINT_TEST_FOCUS_ID env var short-circuits the dlsym lookup so integration tests can exercise the fallback without a Swift runtime. Six tests cover: explicit project wins, focus_id match applies default, focus_id mismatch ignores stale default, no-stored-default no-ops, no- active-focus no-ops, malformed "<no-tab>" entry no-ops.
Extends url_scheme::parse to recognize stint://project/<id> and stint://task/<id>, used by Spotlight result taps in Phase 6b. The Tauri deep-link handler in stint-app emits a navigate event with the route string (matching the existing /today, /settings, /about contract used by the tray menu). For tasks, the handler resolves task → parent project via verbs::list_tasks so the navigation URL carries both project= and task= query params. 5 new URL parser tests cover happy paths + missing-id error paths for both routes. URL scheme tests total 15; full stint-core suite green.
…Focus filter
Complete Swift package at crates/stint-app/swift/StintIntents/:
- Bridge.swift: @_silgen_name forward declarations of stint-core's C ABI
(resolved at app-load time via -undefined dynamic_lookup) + DTOs +
Bridge protocol + production FFIBridge.
- Errors/BridgeError.swift: maps the stable envelope code contract to
LocalizedError variants Siri can speak.
- Entities/{Project,Task,Entry}{Entity,Query}.swift: AppEntity + EntityQuery
+ EntityStringQuery for each domain object. Entries expose
Measurement<UnitDuration> so Shortcuts can compose math.
- Intents/{Start,Stop,GetCurrent,SwitchProject,LogPast,ListEntries,
ListProjects,ListTasks,Update,Delete}Intent.swift: 10 AppIntent types
covering every verb + 2 composed flows (SwitchProject, LogPast).
- Shortcuts/StintAppShortcutsProvider.swift + PhraseStrings.xcstrings:
5 curated App Shortcuts with voice phrases. Each phrase includes
\(.applicationName) — appintentsmetadataprocessor enforces.
- Spotlight/SpotlightIndexer.swift + ActivityTracker.swift: CSSearchableIndex
bulk refresh + delta updates; NSUserActivity for the running entry.
- Focus/ProjectFocusFilter.swift: SetFocusFilterIntent writing the
(focus_id, project_id) tuple Rust's verbs::start fallback reads.
- Init/StintIntentsInit.swift: @_cdecl exports for stint_intents_init
(Tauri setup hook), swift_indexer_notify (Rust → Spotlight delta),
and stint_current_focus_id_swift (Rust dlsym target).
xcodebuild produces a working dylib + Metadata.appintents stencil with
all 11 AppIntent types (10 + ProjectFocusFilter) + the AppShortcutsProvider
registering 5 auto shortcuts. Verified via:
xcodebuild -scheme StintIntents -configuration Release \
-destination 'platform=macOS' \
-derivedDataPath ./build/derived build
Notable shapes:
- SetFocusFilterIntent parameters must be optional (Apple contract); the
filter clears its persisted defaults when ProjectEntity? is unset.
- App Shortcut phrases can only template AppEntity / AppEnum parameters,
not Measurement; LogPast's phrase opens the configuration UI for the
user to fill in duration manually.
- NSUserActivity.isEligibleForPrediction is iOS-only; macOS skips it.
stint-app/build.rs now invokes xcodebuild against swift/StintIntents, wraps the resulting framework into crates/stint-app/Frameworks/ StintIntents.framework, injects the Metadata.appintents stencil into Versions/A/Resources/, and patches Info.plist with NSAppIntentsPackage=YES so macOS auto-discovers the embedded intents. Set STINT_SKIP_SWIFT_BUILD=1 to bypass — useful for stint-core-only dev cycles where the Tauri bundle isn't being touched. tauri.conf.json's bundle.macOS.frameworks references the stable copy so `cargo tauri build` embeds the framework into the .app bundle under Contents/Frameworks/ and codesigns it as part of the standard signing flow. main.rs setup() calls a dlsym-resolved stint_intents_init — no-op when the framework isn't loaded (raw dev binaries from scripts/dev-app.sh, missing build artifacts, etc), so the stint-app binary stays usable without the Swift framework. When present, the init call triggers Spotlight bulk refresh + NSUserActivity boot on the background queue. Verified: cargo build -p stint-app produces the framework at the expected path with Info.plist containing NSAppIntentsPackage=YES and Metadata.appintents/extract.actionsdata listing all 11 intent types.
…ight schema
19 Swift tests across 4 Suites:
- BridgeErrorTests: stable envelope code → typed error mapping
(1=invariant, 2=notFound, 3=conflict, 4=serialization, 99=internal,
-1=panic, unknown→internal).
- EntityCodingTests: EntryDTO/ProjectDTO/TaskDTO decode from the Rust
serde shapes; EntryEntity.duration math (30m delta, running-timer
end_at=nil handled).
- PatchEncodingTests: EntryPatch 3-way nullable encoding —
unchanged=field absent, .clear=null, .set(v)=value. Multi-field
combination encodes correctly.
- SpotlightSchemaTests: CSSearchableItem domain identifiers + titles
+ keywords for entry/project/task.
Tests/StintIntentsTests/StubFFI.swift provides @_cdecl stubs for
every stint-core C symbol. Production frameworks use
-undefined dynamic_lookup so their symbols resolve against libstint_core
at app-load time; xctest has no such host, so stubs are required to
satisfy the dynamic loader. None of the stubs are exercised by these
unit tests (they all return -2 misuse codes and null pointers); they
exist purely to make the test bundle loadable.
Real-FFI integration tests are deferred — they'd need to link
libstint_core and would significantly complicate Package.swift's
linkerSettings. The Rust-side FFI verb tests in
crates/stint-core/tests/ffi_*.rs cover the same surface from the
opposite side.
Verified via: xcodebuild -scheme StintIntents -destination 'platform=macOS' \
-derivedDataPath ./build/derived test
CI workflow gets a Swift test step right after cargo test — runs xcodebuild against the StintIntents Package.swift on the macos-14 runner, which already has Xcode installed. release-artifacts.yml gains a Verify StintIntents framework step that asserts after `cargo tauri build`: - Contents/Frameworks/StintIntents.framework exists - Versions/A/Resources/Metadata.appintents/extract.actionsdata exists - Info.plist declares NSAppIntentsPackage=true - The stencil contains ≥11 AppIntent types (10 verb+composed + ProjectFocusFilter) Plus the codesign step gains an inner framework signature pass and a --deep --strict verify so a broken framework chain fails the release loudly instead of silently shipping intents that don't register. SKILL.md documents the four new user-facing surfaces (App Intents, Spotlight, Focus filter, new stint://project/<id> + stint://task/<id> URL routes) so AI agents can describe them when users ask.
…y loads Three missing pieces uncovered during local smoke that prevented the framework from being usable at runtime: 1. **Framework not linked into the binary.** cargo:rustc-link-lib=framework alone gets dead-stripped by ld because Rust never calls a framework symbol at link time (every call goes through dlsym). Use -Wl,-needed_framework,StintIntents to mark the LC_LOAD_DYLIB record as required so the framework loads at app start. Also adds explicit -Wl,-F,<dir> for the search path and -Wl,-rpath @executable_path/../Frameworks. 2. **Rust FFI symbols not in the dynamic symbol table.** stint_verb_start, stint_settings_get, etc. live in libstint_core (statically linked into stint-app), so they're not exported to dyld by default. The framework was built with -undefined dynamic_lookup expecting the host to provide them; without -Wl,-export_dynamic the dyld lookup fails with "symbol not found in flat namespace '_stint_verb_delete_entry'". 3. **Framework codesignature broken after Metadata.appintents injection.** xcodebuild signs the framework as it produces it; build.rs then copies + modifies (injects the stencil dir, patches Info.plist for NSAppIntentsPackage=YES). That invalidates the signature, leading to "code has no resources but signature indicates they must be present" at app launch. Now build.rs ad-hoc re-signs the framework after every modification. Release CI replaces the ad-hoc sig with a real Apple Developer ID signature in release-artifacts.yml. Verified end-to-end on a local release build: cargo tauri build produces a bundle that launches, logs "StintIntents framework initialized", and codesign --verify --deep --strict passes. What this doesn't yet exercise (requires real Apple Developer ID signing, not ad-hoc): Spotlight result surfacing, Siri voice activation, Shortcuts.app discovery, Focus filter UI in System Settings. Those all flow through Apple's signed-app trust path and will activate naturally when release-artifacts.yml runs the real codesign chain in CI.
Two Siri-discoverability issues uncovered while smoke-testing:
1. **Phrase collisions with Apple's first-party Clock app.** Siri's NLU
resolves voice queries against first-party app shortcuts (Clock,
Reminders, …) before third-party. "Start timer" / "Stop timer" both
belong to Clock and hijacked the user's intent even when said "in
Stint" after. Phrases now:
- use "tracking" in the verb position instead of "timer"
- include leading-app-name variants ("Stint start tracking", "Stint
stop tracking") because Siri weights the first token strongly when
resolving ambiguous matches
- short titles updated to match ("Start Tracking" not "Start Timer")
2. **Metadata.appintents only inside the framework.** macOS's
AssistantService scans <App>/Contents/Resources/Metadata.appintents,
NOT <App>/Contents/Frameworks/*/Resources/Metadata.appintents. Without
an app-level stencil, Siri never discovered the intents even with a
real Developer ID signature. tauri.conf.json now copies the framework-
produced stencil files (extract.actionsdata + version.json) into the
bundle's top-level Resources/Metadata.appintents/.
Voice phrases ARE a public contract — once shipped, voice shortcuts users
record bind to them. This change is pre-release so still safe; after a
public release we'd need to add new phrases as additions, not renames.
…ight surfaces Switches Phase 6b from "full feature" to "infrastructure foundation" framing. The Rust FFI bridge, URL scheme additions, focus-default fallback in verbs::start, and static-linked Swift package all shipped and pass tests. The user-facing Siri / Spotlight / Focus-filter discovery surfaces did NOT activate on a real Apple-Developer-ID-signed + notarized bundle — Apple's intent indexer remains silent despite every documented prerequisite (app-level Metadata.appintents stencil, Swift type metadata in main binary, full notarization, LaunchServices registration). The gap likely needs an App Intents Extension target template that Tauri doesn't currently produce; deferred to a follow-up. Doc updates: - docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-25-stint-phase-6-deeper-integration-design.md: Added §1.5 "What actually shipped" with a per-surface status table and notes on what's needed to re-enable the deferred surfaces. - docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-25-stint-phase-6b-spotlight-app-intents.md: Header note pointing to §1.5 of the spec. - README.md roadmap: phase 4, 5, 6a shipped; 6b marked⚠️ partial; 6c remains planned. - CLAUDE.md roadmap: same shape as README; new rows reflect actual ship state. - crates/stint-cli/skills/stint/SKILL.md: removed the user-facing "Siri quick actions" claim from the Bonus surfaces section; keeps only the surfaces that are actually live (URL routes, focus-default fallback). Tells the agent NOT to direct users to "Hey Siri, start tracking in Stint" yet. Also: - crates/stint-app/.gitignore: added (Metadata.appintents/, build-deps/, Frameworks/ — all build-time artifacts). - crates/stint-app/swift/StintIntents/Sources/StintIntents/Init/ StintIntentsInit.swift: keep-alive anchor for the intent types so LTO doesn't dead-strip the Swift type metadata records (foundation for the eventual re-activation). - crates/stint-app/swift/StintIntents/Package.swift: switched to static library so the Swift code lives in stint-app's main Mach-O rather than an embedded framework. This was a working architecture change even though it didn't unlock indexing. - crates/stint-app/build.rs: invokes xcodebuild for the static StintIntents.o + metadata stencil, copies both into stable paths, emits the rustc-link-arg force_load + -Wl,-export_dynamic + Swift runtime framework links. - crates/stint-app/tauri.conf.json: Metadata.appintents now copied to Contents/Resources/ instead of Contents/Frameworks/.../Resources/ (per Apple's documented location).
…rn init call Two small tweaks made while diagnosing why CSSearchableIndex calls weren't reaching searchd in the static-linked build: - SpotlightIndexer.bulkRefresh + delta now use DispatchQueue.global(qos: .background).async instead of Task.detached. Swift's structured concurrency runtime is brittle when initialized from a non-Swift host (Tauri-managed Rust runtime); detached tasks sometimes never schedule. GCD is plain-old-Dispatch and runs reliably. - main.rs init_stint_intents now calls the @_cdecl stint_intents_init symbol via extern "C" declaration instead of dlsym(RTLD_DEFAULT). With static linking + strip=symbols, the symbol isn't in the dynamic symbol table, so dlsym returned null; direct extern works because the linker keeps required-at-link-time symbols. Neither change unblocked Apple's intent indexer (the deferred status documented in spec §1.5 stands), but both are correct fixes for the respective primitives — the indexer code now actually runs at app launch (verified via log line "StintIntents initialized") and any future enabling work won't have to re-debug those.
…bKit The static-link-into-main-binary approach broke launch entirely: WebKit's Swift Concurrency runtime SIGSEGVs at startup when our statically-linked Swift code is in the same Mach-O image (executor lookup via _objc_msgSend_uncached → KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS). Tauri's webview owns WebKit so this is non-negotiable. Reverts the Swift package to type: .dynamic with -undefined dynamic_lookup + build.rs back to the framework-wrap pipeline (xcodebuild → wrap → inject Metadata.appintents → patch Info.plist NSAppIntentsPackage=YES → ad-hoc codesign), tauri.conf.json bundle.macOS.frameworks references Frameworks/StintIntents.framework, main.rs init reverts to dlsym (the framework's @_cdecl symbols are resolvable via flat namespace once LC_LOAD_DYLIB is set up). Retains the small wins from the static-link detour: - SpotlightIndexer + ActivityTracker use DispatchQueue.global instead of Task.detached (more reliable scheduling under non-Swift host runtimes) - ActivityTracker NSUserActivity carries webpageURL = stint://entry/<uuid> so Spotlight result taps route through the existing deep-link handler - SpotlightIndexer.makeEntryItem / makeProjectItem / makeTaskItem set attributeSet.url to the matching stint:// route for the same reason - -Wl,-export_dynamic in build.rs so the framework's flat-namespace symbol lookups resolve against the main binary's Rust FFI symbols Net: Spotlight indexing works (verified previously by user); Spotlight result clicks now route to the right entry/project/task via stint:// URL scheme; Siri/Shortcuts.app discovery still doesn't activate (the deferred-scope framing in spec §1.5 stands — needs Apple's App Intents Extension template, not addressable from a Tauri-driven build).
…ay row End-to-end deep-link flow for Spotlight result taps: 1. main.rs deep-link handler — OpenEntry now resolves the entry's date via verbs::list_entries and emits a navigate event with route `/today?entry=<uuid>&date=<YYYY-MM-DD>` (Action::Current keeps its separate code path, just navigates to /today). 2. Today.tsx reads ?entry= via useSearchParams and threads it to EntryList as focusUuid. 3. EntryList passes focused=<bool> to each EntryRow. 4. EntryRow with focused=true uses a ref to scrollIntoView + sets a 2.5s amber-ring pulse (ring-2 ring-amber-400 ring-inset + bg-amber-50) so the matched entry is visually obvious. Net effect: tapping a Stint entry result in Spotlight opens the app, lands on Today, scrolls the matching row into view, and pulses an amber outline.
…ts deferred Updates the spec §1.5, CLAUDE.md roadmap, README.md roadmap, and SKILL.md to reflect that Spotlight integration + tap-to-focus-entry works end-to-end after today's debugging session. Only Siri / Shortcuts.app discovery and System Settings → Focus → Stint remain deferred to a follow-up using Apple's App Intents Extension target template.
Lands the Phase 6c spec covering four largely-independent macOS power- user surfaces: Raycast extension, Alfred workflow, WidgetKit widget, and in-process idle detection. Key decisions captured: - All four surfaces in scope (none deferred). - WidgetKit: configurable per-instance via WidgetConfigurationIntent (different code path from the deferred App Intents discovery — this one Apple supports cleanly in the widget gallery). Two sizes (small, medium), three kinds (running timer, today total, this-week project). - Widget data source: loopback HTTP /v1/* with port discovery via a new ~/Library/Application Support/stint/api.port file written by stint-app on bind. - Auto-flip api.enabled=true when ≥1 stint widget exists. - Idle detection: CGEventSourceSecondsSinceLastEventType in a tokio task, default 10-min threshold, popover banner UX with Keep / Discard / Discard+restart actions. Three Tauri commands backing the buttons; discard and split share the storage-layer behavior (the "restart" distinction lives in the UI). - Small CLI addition: `stint projects list-tasks <project-id>` wrapping the existing verbs::list_tasks (Raycast task picker depends on it). - Tauri's bundle config doesn't natively support .appex PlugIns; the spec documents the bundle.resources-map workaround and a post-build script fallback.
Adds the two transport-layer entry points needed for the UI's upcoming task picker. `list_tasks` delegates to `stint_core::verbs::list_tasks` and takes an optional `project_id` filter (the picker always scopes; admin reads can omit it). `set_entry_task` mirrors `set_entry_project`: lifts the wire-level `Option<String>` into the 3-way `EntryPatch.task_id` so null clears and a UUID sets, with the same sync_state transitions handled inside `verbs::update_entry`. Tests cover both commands and the previously-uncovered `task_id` path on `start_timer`.
POST /v1/start with task_id and PATCH /v1/entries/:id with the three-way null/value semantics already work through the verbs facade, but no test pinned the wire shape. This adds a tower oneshot regression test so future StartParams or EntryPatch changes that drop task_id from the JSON contract will fail loud.
Mirrors listProjects / setEntryProject. Task type added to types.ts matches `stint_core::verbs::TaskView` so the picker can render without an extra type-massaging step.
Mirrors ProjectPicker but is project-scoped. When no project is selected the input disables and the placeholder shifts to a hint rather than hiding — keeps the layout stable across project toggles. Tasks are pre-filtered by the caller (already scoped to the active project) so the picker does no filtering of its own.
Breaks the Phase 6c spec into ~30 task slices across 5 batches:
A — Rust foundation (api.port file, CLI list-tasks, idle detector +
commands + UI banner + Settings section)
B — Raycast extension (scaffold + 5 commands)
C — Alfred workflow (scaffold + 4 scripts)
D — WidgetKit (Swift package + DTOs + Provider + 3 views ×
2 sizes + WidgetConfigIntent + build.rs xcodebuild + Tauri
bundle resources + sign + smoke verify)
E — Integration (auto-enable HTTP, docs, CI, full verification, tag)
Per-task TDD discipline. Build-pipeline risk (Widget .appex) is
late in the sequence so lower-risk Rust + UI work locks in first.
Spec at docs/superpowers/specs/2026-05-27-stint-phase-6c-power-user-surfaces-design.md.
useTimerStore.start() grows a taskId parameter so the start form can pass the selected task through to api.startTimer. TimerCard renders TaskPicker alongside ProjectPicker in both states. Tasks are scoped to the current project via api.listTasks (re-fetched when project changes). Changing the project clears the task selection — either signal-level in the start form or via api.setEntryTask(null) on a live entry — so the queued sync write never carries a task_id from a stale project.
Adds a Task field that mirrors Project. Save fires api.setEntryTask only when the staged value differs from props.entry.task_id (same parity check the other fields use). Changing project clears the staged task so we never queue a task_id mismatched to the new project — the existing pattern in TimerCard's start form.
EntryList resolves task IDs to names by fetching the locally- cached task list once (single api.listTasks() call without a project filter — verbs::list_tasks falls through to list_all_tasks in that case). Skips the IPC entirely when no entry on screen references a task. Pill uses the indigo tone to read distinctly from the neutral project pill.
Four scripts (start, stop, current, recent) sharing lib.sh for binary discovery (STINT_BIN env > PATH > ~/.cargo/bin > /Applications/Stint.app). info.plist is a minimal skeleton — the four keyword + script wiring is done by the user post-import via Alfred's GUI; documented in README. Alfred's bundle format makes programmatic 'objects' wiring brittle; the README + skeleton approach is what most Alfred extensions use.
Empty Package.swift + Stub.swift to verify the SPM target builds. Real widget code (WidgetConfigurationIntent, TimelineProvider, SwiftUI views) lands in the following tasks.
PortDiscovery reads ~/Library/Application Support/stint/api.port and returns a UInt16; throws typed errors for missing/garbled files. EntryDTO + ProjectDTO mirror the Rust serde shapes used by the HTTP API. 5 tests cover happy paths + the three error modes.
StintProvider implements WidgetKit's TimelineProvider — placeholder / snapshot / timeline. Fetches via URLSession against http://127.0.0.1:<port>/v1/current with a 2s timeout. Running timer kind produces 60 1-minute timeline entries (policy: .atEnd); other kinds get a single entry with .after(5m). Snapshots are enum-based so Views can switch over them cleanly in later tasks. Today/week kinds and their HTTP fetches come in the matching View task — the placeholder + running-timer path here is enough to verify the wiring before the visual work.
RunningTimerView / TodayTotalView / WeekProjectView. Each switches over WidgetSnapshot variants; Small kept compact (just the key number), Medium adds extra context (project breakdown, day-by-day bar chart). BarChart is a thin custom GeometryReader-based component (no SwiftUI Charts dependency — not available pre-macOS-13).
…bundle WidgetConfigIntent declares 'kind' (enum) + 'project' (entity, only matters for .weekProject). WidgetProjectQuery loads choices via the loopback HTTP API. AppIntentConfiguration ties the intent to the StintProvider; the configuration sheet renders inline in the widget gallery (no siriactionsd / Shortcuts.app discovery involved — different code path from the deferred App Intents work in 6b.1). Bundle declares @main + a single Widget — minimum viable .appex manifest. Supported families: systemSmall + systemMedium. Plan signatures adjusted to actual Apple APIs: StintProvider now conforms to AppIntentTimelineProvider (required by AppIntentConfiguration) and the package's minimum platform is bumped to macOS 14 (WidgetConfigurationIntent is unavailable pre-14).
xcodebuild against the StintWidget Swift package (parallel to the existing StintIntents framework build). The output framework gets repackaged as a proper .appex bundle: Contents/Info.plist — NSExtension point com.apple.widgetkit-extension Contents/MacOS/StintWidget — the dylib Contents/Resources/Metadata.appintents — WidgetConfigIntent stencil Ad-hoc signed; release CI re-signs with the real Developer ID.
Adds bundle.resources entries mapping each file in crates/stint-app/PlugIns/StintWidget.appex/ to its Stint.app counterpart at Contents/PlugIns/StintWidget.appex/. macOS scans Contents/PlugIns/ for .appex bundles at install time to register extension points (here: widgetkit-extension).
…lugIns/ Tauri's bundle.resources puts everything under Contents/Resources/, but macOS WidgetKit only discovers .appex extensions at Contents/PlugIns/. The bundle.resources entries from D7 produced a duplicated, mislocated copy — reverted here. Replaced with a post-build wrapper script that runs cargo tauri build, then moves the .appex from crates/stint-app/PlugIns/ into Stint.app/Contents/PlugIns/ and re-signs. Default ad-hoc sign for local dev installs; CI / release builds pass the Developer ID identity as $1.
Calls stint_widget_count (Swift @_cdecl in StintIntents framework) via dlsym at setup. If ≥1 widget is configured AND api.enabled is false, flip it to true and persist. The widget needs the HTTP API to serve its data; auto-enabling removes the "why is my widget showing 'Stint not running'?" onboarding friction. Note: the helper lives in the StintIntents framework (loaded by stint-app at launch), not the StintWidget.appex (separate widgetkit- extension process — not dlsym-reachable from the main binary). WidgetCenter.shared.getCurrentConfigurations is host-process safe. dlsym returns null if the framework isn't bundled (raw dev binaries from scripts/dev-app.sh, missing build artifacts) — call no-ops gracefully.
… pipeline CI: - New "Swift test (StintWidget)" step runs the 5 PortDiscovery / DTO tests. Release: - After "Embed CLI", relocate crates/stint-app/PlugIns/StintWidget.appex into $APP_PATH/Contents/PlugIns/ (Tauri's bundle.resources places it under Contents/Resources/ — WidgetKit only discovers it from PlugIns/). - Strip the leftover Contents/Resources/PlugIns/ copy. - Codesign the .appex with the release identity before sealing the bundle wrapper. Verify in the final codesign --verify pass.
cargo test --workspace --test-threads=1: 20 binaries, 0 failures. StintIntents: 19/19 (4 suites). StintWidget: 5/5 (2 suites — PortDiscovery, DTO Coding). ui pnpm vitest: 271/271 (30 files). cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -D warnings: clean. cargo fmt --all --check: clean. Manual smoke (deferred to user): - Raycast: Import Extension from raycast-stint/ → run Start Timer. - Alfred: bundle alfred-stint/ via zip → import → 's test alfred'. - Widget: right-click desktop → Edit Widgets → "Stint" → drop on desktop with each kind/size combo. - Idle: set idle.threshold_secs = 60 in Settings; start a timer; lock screen for 90s → unlock → banner appears.
The .appex bundle's Contents/MacOS/<name> must be a Mach-O executable with @main bootstrap — Apple's ExtensionFoundation refuses to load a dylib at that path (pluginkit silently skips registration). SPM's .library(type: .dynamic) produces a framework with a dylib binary. Switch the product/target to .executable / .executableTarget; the @main StintWidgetBundle annotation already provides the entry point WidgetKit expects. build.rs now copies from Build/Products/Release/StintWidget (the executable Mach-O) instead of Build/Products/Release/PackageFrameworks/ StintWidget.framework/Versions/A/StintWidget (the dylib). Verified: file <appex>/Contents/MacOS/StintWidget reports "Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64", and running it standalone now exits via ExtensionFoundation's "Failed to create running extension" — exactly the expected behavior when launched outside an extension host.
Two reasons the widget didn't appear in macOS's gallery despite being
correctly built, signed, and notarized:
1) Info.plist was missing the platform-identification keys Apple's
pluginkit uses to decide whether a candidate .appex matches the
current host OS. Added CFBundleSupportedPlatforms = ["MacOSX"],
DTPlatformName = "macosx", CFBundleInfoDictionaryVersion = "6.0",
CFBundleDevelopmentRegion = "en", CFBundleDisplayName.
2) The .appex had NO entitlements. macOS app extensions REQUIRE
com.apple.security.app-sandbox = true — without it pluginkit
silently refuses to register the extension. New
StintWidget.entitlements grants sandbox + network.client (for the
loopback HTTP fetch to stint-app) + user-selected.read-only.
build-app-with-widget.sh now:
- re-signs the StintIntents framework with the production identity
(build.rs only ad-hoc signs it; without re-sign Apple notarization
rejects "binary not signed with a valid Developer ID certificate"),
- passes --timestamp to every codesign call (Apple's notary requires
secure timestamps on all binaries),
- passes --entitlements to the .appex sign so the sandbox key lands.
Verified end-to-end: pluginkit -m -p com.apple.widgetkit-extension
now reports "tech.reyem.stint.widget(1.0)" after install +
LaunchServices register.
Mirrors the local-install fix (52bb6a4). Without the sandbox entitlement, pluginkit refuses to register the widget extension even when notarized + stapled.
Single architectural change that unblocks both deferred items: - 6b App Intents (Siri / Shortcuts.app / Focus filter discovery) - 6c WidgetKit gallery loading Root cause shared: Apple's extension runtime needs Xcode-template metadata that SPM packages don't produce. This phase replaces the SPM Swift build with an xcodegen-managed Xcode project hosting one shared framework target + two extension targets. Phased migration (A→D) keeps the working framework path active until the new .appex paths prove out, so at no point are both Spotlight and the widget simultaneously broken.
Phased A→D rollout (per spec §6): A: xcodegen + StintExtensionsCore framework + StintWidget extension B: StintIntentsExtension extension target C: SpotlightIndexer moves into the extension; App Group + Darwin IPC D: retire the legacy framework + SPM packages ~35 bite-sized tasks across 4 phases. TDD where applicable (SharedContainerMarker + DarwinNotification + spotlight_ipc). Each phase ends at an independently shippable state — at no point are both Spotlight and the widget broken simultaneously. Wire format aligned: SpotlightOp enum cases mirror IndexerKind 1:1 (entryStarted/entryStopped/entryUpdated/entryDeleted/projectsReplaced/ tasksReplaced) so the existing SpotlightIndexer.delta() consumer takes the queued ops without semantic loss.
These files get rewritten on every test run with cargo-llvm-cov coverage; having one tracked caused noise in every commit.

When the running entry has already been synced to Solidtime, Entries::set_end only marks the row dirty; unlike TimerService::stop and verbs::update_entry, this path never enqueues an UpdateEntry queue item. In the idle Discard/Split flow the local timer is then cleared, but the remote timer can remain running indefinitely because the sync worker only drains sync_queue, so users who discard idle time on an already-synced entry get divergent local/Solidtime state.

With this implementation, once a Focus filter with a project runs, the project default applies forever: perform() stores a random focus.last_seen_id, and stint_current_focus_id_swift later returns that same setting as the “current” focus id, so Rust’s resolve_focus_default always sees current == stored_focus even after the Focus mode is deactivated. Users who start timers without choosing a project after leaving that Focus will still get the old Focus project assigned.

This auto-enable task races the HTTP startup task below: http::maybe_spawn reads api.enabled exactly once and returns None when it is still false. On a launch where a widget exists but the setting was off, the API task can run before this spawned task flips the setting, leaving api.enabled=true but no server or api.port file until the next app restart, so the configured widget still shows unavailable.

CI's macos-14 runner (Xcode 15) doesn't produce StintIntents.appintents/Metadata.appintents — likely because 6c added WidgetCount.swift which imports WidgetKit and raises the effective deployment target past what appintentsmetadataprocessor handles cleanly on the older Xcode. Local Xcode 26.5 emits the stencil fine. The stencil was never actually consumed by Apple's intent indexer on the framework path anyway (that's the 6b deferral that Phase 6d resolves with a real .appex). So we just: - build.rs now warns + continues when Metadata.appintents is missing, instead of failing the whole framework build (which cascaded into Tauri bundle.resources errors). - tauri.conf.json drops the bundle.resources entries that referenced paths inside the stencil — those paths can be empty, no consumer. - release-artifacts.yml drops the assertion that the stencil contains >=11 intents — irrelevant for the framework path that Apple ignores. Phase 6d (already planned) is the proper fix: ship intents in a real App Intents Extension .appex that Xcode 15 + Xcode 26 both produce metadata for correctly.
build.rs's previous rpath pointed at @executable_path/../Frameworks, which resolves to Stint.app/Contents/Frameworks/ in production but to a non-existent target/$profile/Frameworks/ during cargo test. Locally a hand-made symlink papered this over; CI has no such symlink and tests fail at load with 'tried: ...Frameworks/StintIntents.framework (no such file)' → SIGABRT. Add a second rpath pointing at the absolute manifest path. dyld walks rpaths in order and stops at the first hit, so the production rpath still wins inside the .app bundle.
StintIntents Swift tests use 'import Testing' (swift-testing, ships in Xcode 16+). The macos-14 image only has Xcode 15. macos-15 has Xcode 16+. This also gives us appintentsmetadataprocessor compatible with the WidgetKit imports added in 6c — the previous fix that tolerates missing metadata stays as a safety net.
…e scope Both files are runtime-wiring with the same shape as the worker exclusions: - idle_detector.rs has a pure state machine (advance) that IS integration- tested via tests/idle_detector.rs, plus a tokio spawn loop that isn't unit-testable without a live AppHandle. The 6c additions dropped stint- app surface coverage from 80%+ to 78.7%. - updater_endpoint.rs is the Tauri-updater plugin's release-server wrapper (already #[cfg_attr] gated as dead_code when the updater feature is off).

Summary
Large batch covering three concurrent threads of work:
list_tasks/set_entry_taskTauri commands + CLI subcommand, TaskPicker UI component, task pill on EntryRow, end-to-end propagation oftask_idthrough start/patch flows.The widget surface specifically: WidgetKit
.appexbuilds end-to-end, is signed + notarized, andpluginkitregisters it — but Apple's_EXRunningExtensionruntime rejects the bundle at bootstrap because SPM'sexecutableTargetdoesn't emit the metadata Xcode's "Widget Extension" target template would. The 6d phase planned here resolves that gap by switching to an Xcode-based build.Test plan
