What this ships

6d — native macOS menu bar (in full). Hand-rolled NSMenu through the plan-027 objc2 seam (crates/roost-iced/src/macos/menu.rs): App/File/View/Edit menus (30 static actionable items, Swift-parity shapes incl. present-but-disabled Cut/Select All) plus the dynamic Window menu (project rows ⌘1-9, active-project tab rows ⌃1-9, stable-id dispatch, rebuilt from reconcile() behind a plain-data diff). Key equivalents derive from the canonicalized keybind table via a new deterministic menu_accel_for_action in roost-ui-model — menus and the key encoder read one source, and user rebinds surface in the menu. Activation rides the existing engine feed into the same dispatch_keybind_action path keystrokes take. Quit is a custom item through the graceful exit path (winit's default terminate: menu — which this replaces — skips Workspace::flush); ⌘Q now quits cleanly, e2e-asserted. Route gating uses direct item mutation (no validateMenuItem): palette-open disables all but the four palette toggles; editor/confirm/IME-composition disables everything; Copy/Paste get their key equivalents blanked whenever a text surface owns the keyboard, so those chords provably reach iced's text_input under either of AppKit's disputed disabled-item behaviors.

6c — Sparkle mechanics, designed-for-a-feed-later, no feed shipped. third_party/sparkle/fetch.sh pins Sparkle 2.9.5 by SHA256; bundle-iced.sh embeds it and signs via a strict inner→outer per-component chain (Downloader.xpc with --preserve-metadata=entitlements; no --deep — the Swift bundle's looser function is deliberately untouched); Roost-Iced.entitlements restores cs.disable-library-validation with the ad-hoc-framework rationale its comment had reserved. The runtime seam (macos/sparkle.rs) dlopens the framework — no link-time dependency, so cargo builds/CI matrices/make run-iced never need it staged. Shipped plist: SUEnableAutomaticChecks=false, no SUFeedURL/SUPublicEDKey — the two apps cannot offer each other's updates. Feed enablement later = two env vars at bundle time (ROOST_ICED_SPARKLE_FEED_URL + ROOST_ICED_SPARKLE_ED_PUBLIC_KEY, both-or-error), proven live by the new e2e-iced-sparkle lane.

Test surface. Four new test-mode macOS-iced-only IPC ops in the app.dock_badge pattern: app.menu_dump (walks the live NSApp.mainMenu), app.menu_activate (title-path, own isEnabled check), app.update_status (monotonic check_id), app.update_check (non-interactive checkForUpdateInformation). New e2e: test_menu_bar.py (20 tests), test_menu_quit.py (its own destructive lane), test_sparkle.py (bundle + bare classes), test_sparkle_plist.py (roosttest_unit, no cargo). All wired through every enumerated lane list (Makefile + three ci.yml functional lists + bundle-smoke + new menu-quit and sparkle steps); ICED_RELEASE_E2E_TESTS deliberately unchanged.

Verification

  • Every commit gated on make check (1612+ workspace tests, Swift 721, harness 101/108).
  • make e2e-iced-ci 129 passed; make e2e-iced-bundle 34 passed; make e2e-iced-menu-quit + make e2e-iced-exit live (exit 0 + clean state.json); make e2e-iced-sparkle 4 passed — a real found update against a loopback http appcast (Sparkle's GET /appcast.xml in the harness server's access log; check_id 0→1; version 9999.0.0).
  • Live keyless bundle probe: updater started, graceful no-feed error; bare binary: unavailable with reason. Canonical menu_dump + screenshot captured as plan artifacts.
  • Empirical results recorded in the roadmap: feedless startUpdater: succeeds; loopback http needs no ATS exception; Sparkle does not filter unsigned appcast items (so only the TEST-ONLY public key is committed); ad-hoc re-sign of Downloader.xpc is CDHash-deterministic (drove the CI chain-proof design).
  • Not machine-verifiable overnight (locked Mac), on the morning checklist: OS menu rendering, real-keypress interception/no-double-fire, ⌘V into rename/palette under real input, held-accel repeat feel, Sparkle's interactive panel, Gatekeeper with the framework embedded.

Reviews

Panel-reviewed plan (CodeRabbit + GLM + Codex — Codex corrected the winit-default-menu premise, forced the deterministic accel-inversion policy, the fourth op, and the 2.9.5 re-pin). Per-commit reviews: codex CLI is quota-exhausted, so per Charlie's direction the chain was cursor grok-4.6-high primary (C4: 4 findings, all fixed — incl. the half-signed-chain abandon and the PlistBuddy quoting trap) with CodeRabbit fallback on large diffs (C1-C3 catch-up: 2 low fixed, 1 theoretical recorded; C5: full ObjC surface verified against the shipped Sparkle headers, 3 findings fixed, 1 HIGH refuted with evidence — SUEnableAutomaticChecks does ship in the plist). Every finding dispositioned in the commit messages.

Dependencies / risk

  • New crate dep: libc (macOS target only, for dlopen). objc2-app-kit gains 4 features (NSMenu/NSMenuItem/NSEvent/NSCell). No lockfile package additions beyond libc.
  • New build-time network fetch: pinned-SHA Sparkle tarball from the official GitHub release, actions/cached in CI.
  • Committed test fixture: a TEST-ONLY EdDSA public key (filename-marked; private half deliberately absent).
  • Accepted behavior changes: held-accel repeat is now AppKit's menu repeat; ⌘Q previously went through winit's terminate: (flush not guaranteed) and now exits gracefully.
  • Accepted risks: theoretical stale-tag on Window-menu rebuild mid-tracking (no constructible firing path; hardening recorded); Swift bundle's --deep Sparkle signing left as-is (recorded future hygiene).

Plan file + artifacts: ~/.claude/plans/roost/028-mac-iced-menubar-sparkle{.md,/} (panel summary, sparkle e2e transcript, canonical menu dump, screenshot, morning checklist).

Plan 028 — design decisions (condensed)
  • 3.1 Hand-rolled NSMenu via objc2-app-kit; muda rejected (new dep, duplicate accel model; the 6b spike proved the define_class! mechanism).
  • 3.2 One source: menus derive display accels from the canonicalized table via a deterministic inversion (prefer SUPER, tie-break defaults order → lexicographic; Swift's own accel(for:) is dict-order nondeterministic and was not a parity model); dispatch goes through dispatch_keybind_action. Quit deviates from Swift deliberately (graceful exit, never terminate:).
  • 3.3 AppKit→iced bridge rides the existing engine feed (no parallel channel); Window rows carry stable i64 ids because delivery is async.
  • 3.4 Install at window_opened; Window-menu rebuild from reconcile() behind a plain-data model diff.
  • 3.5 Gating by direct mutation, autoenablesItems=false: palette-open disables all but palette toggles (absorb-and-beep = Swift's own behavior); text-capture (editor/confirm/IME) disables everything and blanks Copy/Paste equivalents — correct under both disputed AppKit disabled-item behaviors; single push-site in update()'s drain; dispatch re-checks the live route.
  • 3.6 Cut/Select All present-but-disabled with NO equivalents (a disabled ⌘X/⌘A could absorb chords the terminal sees today).
  • 3.8 Sparkle via dlopen + runtime lookup, not link-time (shed's approach would tax every macOS cargo build); ownership: dlopen handle + controller + delegate retained in main-thread thread_locals (controller holds the delegate weakly). Amended at C5: initWithStartingUpdater:NO + explicit startUpdater: (the controller's auto-start shows an unprompted modal on feedless apps).
  • 3.9 No feed shipped; SUEnableAutomaticChecks=false; test-gated delegate feed override (ROOST_SPARKLE_FEED_URL honored only under ROOST_TEST_MODE=1); enablement = env pair; SUPublicEDKey deliberately not shipped today (keyless builds never check; first feed-carrying build arrives out-of-band regardless).
  • 3.10 fetch.sh pins latest stable 2.9.x + SHA; strict signing chain per shed's production evidence; CI asserts the posture incl. a CDHash-vs-vendor chain-proof (Downloader exempt: deterministic re-sign, proven via preserved entitlements instead).
  • 3.11/3.12 Sparkle e2e runs against a TEST-ONLY-keyed bundle (the enablement path's live consumer); four introspection/driver ops with pinned wire schemas.

App/File/View/Edit menus built from the canonicalized keybind table —
menu_accel_for_action (deterministic inversion: prefer super, tie-break
default_bindings order) and KeybindAction::to_wire_name land in
roost-ui-model beside the table, so menus and the key encoder read one
source. Activation rides the existing engine feed as EngineFeed::Menu
(no parallel channel); dispatch goes through the same
dispatch_keybind_action path a keystroke takes. Quit is a custom item
routing to the graceful exit path (winit's default menu quits via
terminate:, which skips Workspace::flush's clean-exit fsync); installing
NSApp.mainMenu replaces that default wholesale.

Gating (plan 028 § 3.5): autoenablesItems=false + direct mutation, no
validateMenuItem. text_capture (rename editor / confirm modal / IME
composition) disables every command item and blanks Copy/Paste key
equivalents so those chords provably reach iced's text_input under
either disputed AppKit disabled-item behavior; palette-open disables all
but the four palette toggles (Swift parity) and also blanks Copy/Paste
(the palette search field is a text_input too). Dispatch re-checks the
live route (defense in depth). Cut/Select All ship disabled with no key
equivalents; "Check for Updates…" ships disabled until 6c wires it.

Gate: make check green (1612 tests), make e2e-iced-ci green (106 passed
— existing keybind/palette/IME e2e unaffected with the menu installed).
Review: codex quota-exhausted and cursor stalled (both reviewer CLIs
unavailable tonight) — careful self-review pass done instead, focused on
ObjC reentrancy (dispatch_tag try_borrow), weak-target retention,
gating-cache resets, modifier-bit mapping (compile-pinned test), and the
ExitState latch refactor; no findings. Simplify pass applied: Edit-menu
spec-table dedup, disabled_item helper, ExitState request/observe
unification, visibility narrowing.

…an 028 C2)

Item-for-item port of rebuildWindowMenu (App.swift:3820-3886): project
rows (name, checkmark on active, first nine carry the SwitchProject
accels from the table), tabs of the active project ("Tab N", checkmark,
first nine SwitchTab accels), then Minimize ⌘M / Zoom via responder-chain
selectors. Rows dispatch MenuEvent::SelectProject/SelectTab carrying
stable i64 ids (an index could name a different tab by the time the
async menu event drains) through the same selection paths clicks take.

Rebuild is driven from reconcile() behind a plain-data row-model diff
(WindowRows), so shell-driven churn never touches AppKit; the whole tag
reassignment happens under one borrow_mut, which dispatch_tag's
try_borrow guards against mid-rebuild clicks. Fresh rows are born with
the current gating applied (the App-side gate is edge-triggered), and
rows join the palette/text-capture gate like every custom action —
command_enabled is now the one enabled-state rule shared by the menu
sync and the dispatch-time defense.

Deviation noted in-code: no ensureSidebarVisible on project select —
no existing iced selection route does it; parity kept with iced, not
Swift, per plan instruction against inventing behavior.

Gate: make check green; roost-iced menu module 12 unit tests. Review:
external reviewer CLIs still unavailable (codex quota / cursor stall) —
self-review focused on rebuild borrow discipline, tag-table atomicity,
gating re-push on rebuild, and row-id staleness; no findings.

…plan 028 C3)

Two macOS-iced-only test-mode ops in the app.dock_badge pattern:
menu_dump walks the LIVE NSApp.mainMenu (titles, key equivalents,
modifier names, enabled, on/off state, action markers — to_wire_name
for bound items, select_project/<id> row markers, appkit:<selector>
for standard items); menu_activate resolves a title path, checks the
stored isEnabled itself (performActionForItemAtIndex: runs no
validation) and errors on unknown/ambiguous/disabled before firing.
GTK + non-macOS iced reject; docs/reference/ipc.md documents both.

E2E: test_menu_bar.py (20 tests — shape vs the Swift inventory, table-
derived key equivalents, dispatch through the real AppKit path growing
tab.list, dynamic Window rows tracking open/close/select, palette +
IME-composing gating with blanked Copy/Paste equivalents, error cases);
test_menu_quit.py in its own destructive lane (ICED_MENU_QUIT_E2E_TESTS)
asserting menu Quit exits 0 via the graceful path with state.json
reflecting the live layout. Wired into ICED_E2E_TESTS, all three ci.yml
functional lists, the bundle-smoke lists, and new menu-quit CI steps;
ICED_RELEASE_E2E_TESTS deliberately untouched (plan § 3.13).

Implementation fixes surfaced by the first e2e run: phantom Cmd
modifier reported on equivalent-less items (normalized to empty);
two test-seeding bugs around projects not becoming active until a tab
opens. Rename/confirm gating is covered via the palette + composing
routes only — neither overlay has an IPC-reversible exit, and driving
one would strand the shared session (recorded in the module docstring).

Gate: make check green; make e2e-iced-ci 126 passed (re-run after the
simplify pass); e2e-iced-menu-quit + e2e-iced-exit both pass live.
Simplify pass: runs_alone dedup into util.py, macos_test_gated helper
for the thrice-copied gate, _mtm convention. Review: external reviewer
CLIs unavailable (codex quota / cursor stall) — self-review pass, no
findings.

…lan 028 C4)

third_party/sparkle/fetch.sh pins Sparkle 2.9.5 by SHA256 from the
official release tarball (ghostty-build.sh conventions: cached, stamped,
loud errors), stages the framework + sign_update/generate_keys into
gitignored out/, and validates the symlink farm incl. the top-level
Sparkle symlink the 6c dlopen will resolve. 2.9.5 over shed's 2.8.1:
latest stable with subsequent security fixes (README.roost.md records
provenance + removal condition).

bundle-iced.sh embeds via cp -R outside the signing conditional (an
ROOST_ALLOW_UNSIGNED build still ships the framework) and signs through
the new codesign_sparkle_or_die: shed's strict inner→outer chain
(Installer.xpc → Downloader.xpc with --preserve-metadata=entitlements
per Sparkle#2511 → Autoupdate → Updater.app → framework), no --deep, no
entitlements on any component; its doc comment reconciles with the
Swift path's looser --deep function above it, which stays untouched.
No feed shipped: SUEnableAutomaticChecks=false lands in the plist
(suppresses Sparkle's first-run prompt), SUFeedURL/SUPublicEDKey stay
absent, and enablement is the ROOST_ICED_SPARKLE_FEED_URL +
_ED_PUBLIC_KEY env pair (both-or-error) via roost_insert_sparkle_feed.
Roost-Iced.entitlements restores cs.disable-library-validation with the
documented ad-hoc-Sparkle rationale its comment had reserved.

CI: third_party/sparkle/** joins the macbundle filter; actions/cache on
the sparkle dist keyed off fetch.sh; the bundle assertions now require
the framework + symlink, the exact plist posture, LV-disable present,
per-component strict verifies, a CDHash-differs-from-vendor proof that
the re-sign chain ran (Downloader.xpc exempt — its preserved-metadata
ad-hoc re-sign deterministically reproduces the vendor CodeDirectory,
verified locally; it is proven via its preserved-and-clean entitlements
instead), and the pre-existing hardened-runtime grep is un-flaked
(pipefail+grep -q SIGPIPE, reproduced 5/5). roosttest_unit gains
test_sparkle_plist.py (bundle-lib functions driven directly, no cargo).

Review (cursor grok-4.6-high): 4 findings, all fixed — mid-chain
codesign failure under ROOST_ALLOW_UNSIGNED now abandons the remaining
Sparkle chain instead of sealing a half-re-signed framework; PlistBuddy
values reject embedded double quotes (PlistBuddy exits 0 on its own
parse error, which would have silently broken the both-or-neither
contract); the chain-proof assertion gained the CDHash comparison
(vendor signatures alone previously satisfied it); the template-posture
unit test now pins SUEnableAutomaticChecks to <false/>, not presence.

Gate: shellcheck clean; make bundle-iced green with all updated
assertions passing locally incl. the env-pair one-set error arm and
both-set insertion; roosttest_unit green.

…uard (C1-C3 review)

CodeRabbit catch-up review of the C1-C3 range (both external reviewer
CLIs were down when they landed) returned two low findings, fixed here:

- map_test_op_err now classifies "has no submenu" (descending through a
  leaf) and "must not be empty" (empty path) as invalid-param, matching
  what docs/reference/ipc.md and client.py promise for caller-shaped
  menu_activate errors; they previously surfaced as internal.
- key_equivalent rejects non-ASCII single-char keys instead of Unicode-
  lowercasing them — İ lowercases to a two-char string, which AppKit
  would treat as an invalid multi-char keyEquivalent. Exotic bindings
  render as bare titles, same as other unmappable keys.

Dispositions of the remaining findings: the stale-tag-during-open-menu
rebuild is theoretical (reviewer could not construct a firing path;
try_borrow + AppKit's in-place menu update cover the practical cases) —
recorded in the plan, not coded around; separator-matching on an
empty path segment and the ambiguous-error path wording are cosmetic
quirks of a test-only op. All other categories (reentrancy, retention,
gating cache, accel mapping, feed bridge, dispatch gating, ExitState,
wire schema, test assertions, cfg hygiene, CI wiring) reviewed clean.

…plan 028 C5)

macos/sparkle.rs loads the embedded framework at window_opened through
dlopen of the stable Contents/Frameworks/Sparkle.framework/Sparkle
symlink (RTLD_LAZY, handle held for the app's life; exe canonicalized so
symlinked launches anchor ../Frameworks correctly; a missing path errors
deterministically before dyld's fallback search) and drives
SPUStandardUpdaterController through runtime class lookup + msg_send —
no link-time dependency, so cargo builds, CI matrices, and the bare
make run-iced flow are untouched (they report unavailable-with-reason).
Every selector was verified against the shipped 2.9.5 headers.

Deviation from the plan pin, recorded there: initWithStartingUpdater:NO
plus an explicit startUpdater: — the controller's auto-start shows an
unprompted modal alert on a misconfigured (feedless) app; direct start
turns the same condition into an NSError app.update_status reports.
Feedless startUpdater succeeds (plan § 3.9 first arm confirmed), so the
shipped keyless bundle runs with the updater started, the menu item
enabled via canCheckForUpdates, and a graceful no-feed error on check.

The define_class! delegate supplies the feed URL from
ROOST_SPARKLE_FEED_URL only when the app booted with ROOST_TEST_MODE=1,
and records found/none/error outcomes with a monotonic check_id
(didFinishUpdateCycle backstop). Ops app.update_status +
app.update_check follow the dock_badge pattern end-to-end (ipc/engine/
servicing/gtk-reject/docs/client). "Check for Updates…" is now a live
menu item, ungated like Quit (Swift's targets the controller, outside
its validateMenuItem gate).

E2E: test_sparkle.py — the bundle class proves the full machinery
against a loopback http appcast served by the harness (found, version
9999.0.0, access-log verified); the bare class pins the no-framework
posture in the ordinary lanes. make e2e-iced-sparkle assembles the
TEST-KEYED bundle via the C4 env pair (the enablement path's live
consumer); CI macOS cells run it after the untouched keyless
assertions. Empirical arms: http loopback works (no ATS exception),
Sparkle does not filter unsigned appcast items, so only the TEST-ONLY
public key is committed (signing arm documented in the fixture README).

Review (CodeRabbit; grok stalled on diff size): ObjC surface verified
clean against the headers. Fixed: sessionInProgress guard so an
overlapping check errors instead of letting the in-flight cycle's tail
masquerade as the new check's outcome; exe canonicalization; dlopen
pre-stat; condition-wait on the enabled-state assert. Skipped with
verification: the permission-prompt-wedge finding's premise is false —
SUEnableAutomaticChecks=false ships in the template since C4 and CI
asserts it (the prompt only fires when the key is absent).

Gate: make check green; e2e-iced-ci 129 passed; e2e-iced-bundle 34
passed; e2e-iced-sparkle 4 passed (transcript in the plan artifacts).
Simplify: seam_on_main/serviced_on_main dedup (−30 lines), stdlib ANY,
fixture-scan reuse, Makefile comment placement.

…nu tests

CI's macos-latest injects "Enter Full Screen" (toggleFullScreen:) into
any menu titled "View"; local macOS 26 does not. The item is
environment-dependent OS furniture — the Swift app's View menu receives
the same injection, so keeping it in the live menu IS parity — but the
pinned-inventory and static-count tests asserted exact rows and broke
on the runner (one extra actionable item). Shape assertions now filter
rows whose action is in OS_INJECTED_ACTIONS; gating/separator tests
assert named items and were already immune.

Gate: test_menu_bar.py 20/20 locally (filter is a no-op here).

Inline comments:
In @.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Around line 1044-1054: Update the test-keyed bundle verification after
invoking bundle-iced.sh to read SUFeedURL from the generated plist and assert it
equals http://127.0.0.1:1/placeholder, while preserving the existing
SUPublicEDKey assertion.

In `@crates/roost-engine/src/ipc.rs`:
- Around line 1247-1253: Update the error classification around the IPC
error-matching branch to distinguish menu activation failures from menu dump
faults: narrow the “has no submenu” check to the activate-specific phrase “has
no submenu to descend into,” or otherwise reword the dump-side error so it no
longer matches. Preserve malformed menu-bar dump errors as internal failures
while retaining invalid-param classification for app.menu_activate path-walk
errors.

In `@crates/roost-iced/src/macos/menu.rs`:
- Around line 958-963: Update the ambiguous-menu error path in the matching
logic to include the colliding segment by slicing through index depth
inclusively, matching the not-found arm’s path reporting. Preserve the existing
error text and ambiguity detection behavior.

In `@mac/scripts/bundle-iced.sh`:
- Around line 155-159: Remove any existing destination Sparkle.framework
immediately before the cp -R operation in the Sparkle embedding flow, using the
existing APP_DIR and SPARKLE_FW_SRC symbols. Keep the destination directory
creation and copy behavior unchanged so each assembly starts with a clean
framework.

In `@mac/scripts/bundle-lib.sh`:
- Around line 491-502: Remove the trailing “|| true” from the inner signing
chain in codesign_sparkle_or_die so component failures propagate and prevent
signing the outer Sparkle framework. Keep the intentional “|| true” handling at
the bundle-iced.sh call site so unsigned builds do not abort under set -e.

In `@tools/roosttest/test_sparkle.py`:
- Around line 209-234: Make test_the_feed_was_fetched_over_loopback and
test_the_check_for_updates_item_is_enabled independent of
test_a_check_finds_the_fixture_version by ensuring each performs or receives a
completed _run_check(roost) before its assertions; use a shared class-scoped
fixture only if it reliably establishes that state for both tests.

…uick wins

All six inline findings adopted:
- (Major) an abandoned Sparkle chain under ROOST_ALLOW_UNSIGNED=1 now
  propagates its failure and bundle-iced.sh skips the OUTER app
  signature too — the || true swallowed the abandon status and sealed
  the half-re-signed framework, the exact state the chain exists to
  prevent.
- (Major-as-filed, hardening in practice) explicit rm -rf before the
  framework cp -R; the skeleton wipe already prevents the nested-copy
  case today, the delete makes the stage deterministic on its own.
- map_test_op_err's "has no submenu" arm narrowed to the activate-side
  phrasing — the dump-side malformed-menu-bar error shares the shorter
  substring and must stay internal.
- ambiguity error reports the path INCLUDING the colliding segment.
- CI's test-keyed assemble asserts the exact SUFeedURL placeholder (the
  e2e overrides the feed at runtime, so it can't catch a dropped plist
  insertion).
- Sparkle bundle tests are order-independent (_ensure_completed_check
  for the access-log and enabled-state tests).

Gate: fmt/shellcheck/yaml clean; roost-iced + roost-engine tests green;
e2e-iced-sparkle 4 passed; e2e-iced-ci 129 passed.
