Connected — Phone connectivity applet for COSMIC panel

App ID: io.github.nwxnw.cosmic-ext-connected
Source: https://github.com/nwxnw/cosmic-ext-connected
Version: 0.5.1

Connected is a phone connectivity applet that consumes KDE Connect's existing daemon as a D-Bus back end. It ships a native libcosmic UI and targets typical KDE Connect use cases - device list / battery / SMS / file share / ping / notifications. Connected consumes kdeconnectd unmodified, and introduces no fork or patches of upstream KDE Connect.

Manifest highlights

• No --share=network. Connected talks D-Bus to the host's kdeconnectd which owns the network sockets
• D-Bus access is broad (--socket=session-bus) rather than specific --talk-name= filters, matching usage in app/io.github.hepp3n.kdeconnect/.
• Three filesystem reads: --filesystem=xdg-config/cosmic:rw (own config), --filesystem=xdg-data/kpeoplevcard:ro (contact vCards for SMS name resolution), --filesystem=xdg-cache/kdeconnect.daemon:ro (MMS attachments fetched by the daemon, served back through the applet UI)

Local build verification

• just build io.github.nwxnw.cosmic-ext-connected succeeded
• installed via flatpak --user install local-test
• metainfo <id>com.system76.CosmicApplet</id> confirmed inside the installed sandbox
• applet appears in COSMIC Settings → Desktop → Panel → Add Applet.
