fix(server): Swift TestFlight clients can read settings again - #26455
Installed Swift TestFlight builds (68, com.t3tools.t3code.swiftui) still request server.getSettings, which #26238 removed. Opening or sending in a thread from those builds fails with Unknown request tag: server.getSettings. It still reproduces on 0.1.9-nightly.20261111.4515.
Fix
Restore server.getSettings as a read-only (orchestration:read) alias. It returns the same redacted settings server.getConfig already returns, so installed builds work without another TestFlight release. The RPC carries a one-line note that it has no in-tree caller, so it isn't removed again while those builds are out.
This adds an RPC to packages/contracts, so Theo or Julius should approve it before merge.
Evidence
Before and after, real server. The probe starts node apps/server/src/bin.ts start with a fresh T3 home. It saves settings with a favorite and a fake source-control token, then sends the exact frame the Swift client sends over a raw authenticated WebSocket. "Before" is the same tree with only the source change reverted.
$ node apps/server/src/bin.ts start # origin/main 095611d1b55, fresh T3 home
> {"_tag":"Request","id":"2","tag":"server.getSettings","payload":{},"headers":[]}
< Failure "defect":"Unknown request tag: server.getSettings"
$ node apps/server/src/bin.ts start # PR head 3d29c1ed9f1, fresh T3 home
> {"_tag":"Request","id":"2","tag":"server.getSettings","payload":{},"headers":[]}
< Success
favorites: [{"provider":"claudeAgent","model":"claude-sonnet-4-5"}]
sourceControlHosts.gitcafe: {"token":"<redacted>"}
fake token present in response: false
Swift client transport. An earlier revision of this fix was checked with the Swift client's own WebSocketRPC.swift, JSONValue.swift and ServerModelPreferences.swift (from #5178 at f021c92), compiled as a macOS CLI. It wrote model preferences and read them back through server.getSettings. That revision used the same handler (getSettings passed through redactServerSettingsForClient).
server.updateSettings succeeded with test model preferences
server.getSettings succeeded; Swift model preferences decode saved favorite and hidden model; token redacted
server.getConfig.settings equals legacy server.getSettings
New case in RpcAuthorization.test.ts: it fails on main with RPC method server.getSettings has no declared authorization scope. and passes here. The existing "exactly one scope for every RPC in the server group" case ties that map to WsRpcGroup, so this proves the tag is registered and read-only.
vp run check:changed passed: format, lint, knip, graphql, typecheck (37 packages), 4 test files (55 tests).
Not shown: the installed TestFlight build 68 UI on an iPhone (before: error alert; after: thread opens and sends). TestFlight builds only install on a physical iPhone, and none was available for this run.
Implementation and verification: Claude Opus 5.5 through Claude Code in T3 Code. Earlier investigation and Swift transport check: GPT-6.1-sol through Codex in T3 Code.

Walkthrough
The change adds the server.getSettings WebSocket RPC. It returns settings redacted for the client’s capabilities, requires the orchestration-read scope, and maps to the server instrumentation aggregate. A test checks retained model preferences and confirms that a configured source-control token is absent.
Changes: Server settings RPC
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Settings RPC contract and response packages/contracts/src/rpc.ts, apps/server/src/ws.ts, apps/server/src/ws.test.ts
The RPC accepts an empty payload and returns ServerSettings. The handler redacts settings for the client. The test checks that model selection, favorites, and provider model preferences remain present, and that the configured source-control token is absent.
RPC authorization and instrumentation apps/server/src/auth/RpcAuthorization.ts, apps/server/src/observability/RpcInstrumentation.ts
The RPC requires AuthOrchestrationReadScope and maps to the server aggregate.

Explanation
The description follows the template well. It states the problem with the reproduction environment and error text. It explains the fix as restoring a read-only server.getSettings alias that reuses the existing redaction path. It links the issue (#26446), gives the approval requirement for the contracts change, and provides concrete before/after evidence, focused tests, and a check-suite result. It also states what was not verified (physical iPhone UI). Minor gaps: the Scope section does not explain why a restored RPC is a bug fix rather than a feature, although the issue link and the Problem section partly cover this. The Verification section omits the template's request to state what could not be checked in full detail, but it does list the untested item. The model/harness attribution is present.

Seed favorite and hidden model preferences in the RPC test.
The fixture saves only defaultModelSelection. If server.getSettings drops favorites or hidden models, the current full-response assertion can still pass because saved also lacks those values. Add non-default values and assert them in the RPC response.

R1 resolved in fd3e0fb. The existing RPC regression now seeds non-default favorites, hidden models, and model ordering, then asserts those values in the response. The focused regression and vp run check:changed passed. This addresses CodeRabbit's test-coverage nit.
verified the restored server rpc as-is at fd3e0fb566eba3af17d3a8777ee0e19d47170266 on a linux boat vm. no source changes or pushes.
reproduced on github/main (32ecd71726) in a separate worktree: authenticated server.getSettings returned Unknown request tag: server.getSettings. stopped main before starting the exact pr head. installed dependencies with vp i in both checkouts.
drove the real web app with playwright from the repo and /usr/bin/google-chrome. added /home/user/t3code as a project and completed a real codex gpt-6.1-sol turn that ran two git commands and returned settings-compat-ok.
saved a favorite, hidden model, and model order through settings. they survived reload and appeared in the legacy rpc response. also checked a saved default model through the live settings rpc.
legacy settings deeply matched server.getConfig.settings. a temporary source-control token was redacted, then cleared. a separately paired orchestration:read session could read both endpoints but could not update settings.
vp run check:changed 0160c448f61bf24244411781ccc47829a1a51a17 passed through blacksmith-check: format, lint, knip, graphql, 32 affected-package typechecks, and 29 tests. the explicit base is the pr parent; its ancestry was fetched into the shallow worker checkout.
installed swift testflight build 68, its actual native decoder and composer, physical ios/android clients, electron shell, macos/windows hosts, and relay/tunnel connections were not exercised on this linux vm. this verifies the restored wire method and real codex web-client path; it does not establish that the installed testflight app itself works.
takeover update
merged current main without rebasing and preserved both sets of websocket tests. updated the restored rpc and regression for main's client-capability redaction and rpc-layer dependencies. the pr remains five files.
verified at d61d08fde1:
blacksmith-check ran vp run check:changed against main: format, lint, knip, graphql, all 36 affected-package typechecks, and 41 tests passed.
the existing settings regression failed after the merge, then passed with the compatibility fixes.
playwright with system chrome paired with the isolated dev server. authenticated server.getSettings and server.getConfig both returned success, and their settings deeply matched.
two independent code reviews found no remaining scoped findings.
native swift testflight, mobile hardware, electron shell, and relay/tunnel behavior remain unverified. earlier evidence above is from the original head.
Verified on a physical iPhone, Swift TestFlight build 68, and a Windows host
This covers the gap listed in the PR description. I tested the PR head d61d08fde1 without changing the source.
Host: Windows 11. I built the server from this PR with vp run --filter t3 build and ran it with t3 serve --lan against a fresh, separate data directory.
Client: a physical iPhone running Swift TestFlight build 68 (T3Code/68 CFNetwork/3896.200.61 Darwin/27.2.0), paired over the LAN.
After: I opened a project, started a thread and sent a message. No alert appeared, and the agent replied. The server trace shows ws.rpc.server.getSettings → Success, along with orchestration.launchThread and orchestration.dispatchCommand.
On the same Windows host, vp test run apps/server/src/ws.test.ts -t getSettings passes.
At the moment, every TestFlight user on a current nightly or on stable 0.1.6 is unable to send from the iPhone app. Could a maintainer merge this as the compatibility bridge until a Swift build carrying #28170 ships?
[Claude Opus 5.5][Claude Code] on behalf of shivam.
@gmelvill thanks for the TestFlight run. Could you add before/after screenshots from the same iPhone? Before is the nightly showing "Unknown request tag: server.getSettings" when a thread opens; after is this PR's server with the thread open and the agent's reply. We can't run Swift TestFlight builds here, and we'd like the images on the PR before it lands.
@shivamhwp here are the before/after screenshots. Both come from the same physical iPhone on the same home Wi-Fi, running Swift TestFlight build 68, with a Windows 11 host, taken today.
Before: released nightly 0.1.8
After: this PR (e07a291ad4)
Before: opening a thread against the installed nightly shows "Something went wrong: Unknown request tag: server.getSettings". The message can't be sent.
After: the PR head e07a291ad4, built with vp run --filter t3 build and run with t3 serve --lan against a fresh data directory. I opened a thread and sent "Testing", and the agent replied. A second message also sent (screenshot). No alert appeared.
Server trace: 3 ws.rpc.server.getSettings spans from T3Code/68 CFNetwork/3896.200.61 Darwin/27.2.0, all Success.
+1, also hitting this: T3 Code SwiftUI TestFlight build 68 against a current nightly server (0.1.8-nightly) fails with Unknown request tag: server.getSettings, so messages can't be sent from the phone. Every nightly since #26238 and stable v0.1.7 are affected.
This PR has now been verified on a physical iPhone with build 68 (see the screenshots above), and it fixes already-installed clients without waiting for a new TestFlight build. @juliusmarminge could this get a review or merge? #26466 looks stalled on conflicts, and #28170 only helps after a new TestFlight build ships.
@juliusmarminge, following up on the review request above: could you review #28170 and confirm whether the preferred long-term approach is for the Swift client to read server.getConfig.settings?
That PR migrates all remaining Swift settings readers to the existing configuration API, preserving fresh reads before updates and keeping the redundant server.getSettings endpoint removed.
We recognize that this requires a new TestFlight build. Would you prefer this client migration, with #26455 as a temporary compatibility bridge for already-installed build 68, or a different approach?
Both proposals address #26446. Clarifying the direction would help move this forward, since affected users currently cannot send messages from the app.
The automated pipeline stopped on this pull request and will not merge it:
the fix is written and reviewed, but proving it needs something no worker has:
Permanent blocker: the reproduction requires a Windows 11 host and a physical iPhone with SwiftUI TestFlight 0.1.0 build 68; this VM provides neither. The scenario runner's web client and iOS dev client cannot establish the installed Swift client's behavior.
Unknown-method alert, saved model-preference loading, message submission, agent reply, and server-side secret redaction remain unverified on both commits.
@juliusmarminge the device check the pipeline listed as a permanent blocker has now been run at the current head 4f44ed7da1, on the exact setup it asked for: a Windows 11 host and a physical iPhone running SwiftUI TestFlight 0.1.0 build 68 (T3Code/68 CFNetwork/3896.200.61 Darwin/27.2.0), paired over the LAN to t3 serve --lan built with vp run --filter t3 build against a fresh data directory.
Message sent
Agent replied
Unknown-method alert: none. The phone's ws.rpc.server.getSettings span returned Success.
Saved model preferences: before pairing I saved defaultModelSelection = claude-sonnet-5-5 (not the default) plus a matching favourite. The thread the phone launched ran on claude-sonnet-5-5, so the app loaded them from server.getSettings.
Message submission:orchestration.launchThread and orchestration.dispatchCommand both returned Success.
Agent reply: the agent replied in the thread (screenshot above).
Server-side secret redaction: I saved canary values in cloudSpeechCredentials.openai and sourceControlHosts.<host>.token, then called server.getSettings on the live server. Both came back as ••••••, and the canary strings appear nowhere in the response. vp test run apps/server/src/ws.test.ts -t getSettings also passes on this host.
Could a person review and merge? Installed build 68 clients still can't send against current nightlies without this.
Interim for anyone with a Mac and Xcode: I tested a self-built copy of build 68 that has only #28170 plus the signing changes below, nothing else. T3 Connect GitHub sign-in, existing and new threads, sending and replies all work on my iPhone. To build your own:
Run npx [email protected] install once, because a build step uses vite-plus.
In apps/swift-ios/T3Code.xcodeproj, replace com.t3tools.t3code.swiftui with your own bundle ID prefix and set your team. Keep the t3code-swiftui URL scheme so the t3code-swiftui://clerk-callback sign-in redirect still works.
With a free Apple ID: remove the push (aps-environment), Sign in with Apple, associated-domains and App Group entitlements; stop building and embedding the widget and share extensions; and remove .apple from the providers in Features/Connection/T3ConnectView.swift.
For T3 Connect sign-in, set T3CODE_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY, T3CODE_RELAY_URL and T3CODE_CLERK_JWT_TEMPLATE in a local, untracked xcconfig (public identifiers; see docs/operations/connect-setup.md). Without them, only direct pairing works.
Build to your own device from pingdotgg's source rather than installing someone else's prebuilt app. Free signing lasts 7 days and counts toward the 3-app limit. Push, widgets, sharing and Sign in with Apple won't work. If the TestFlight app is also installed, both claim the t3code-swiftui URL scheme, so T3 Connect sign-in may open the wrong one; remove one if sign-in fails. Switch back to TestFlight once a fix ships.
Installed Swift TestFlight builds still request `server.getSettings`, which
was removed, so opening or sending in a thread fails with "Unknown request
tag: server.getSettings". Restore it as a read-only alias that returns the
same redacted settings as `server.getConfig`.
