Stop two keyboard tests hanging, and make the CI mirror mirror CI
Two failures, both pre-existing and both invisible as failures — each
reported only as "did not complete" after stalling the suite.

app/test/keyboard_operability_test.dart awaited writeLog() straight from
the test body. LogStorageService is backed by a FileDocumentStore there,
so that awaits real dart:io, and the fake-async zone never completes it:
the test hangs rather than fails. Seeding now happens inside runAsync
alongside the pumping, which is the only zone where that write can
resolve. The screen's own initState load needs the same real clock, and
pumpAndSettle() cannot be used to wait for it — inside runAsync it waits
on a frame scheduler this screen never reports as idle — so the helper
pumps a bounded number of times instead. 473 app tests now pass in 14s.

scripts/ci_mirror.sh ran bare pytest while python-tests.yml runs it under
xvfb-run. Without a display the gate's real-Tk tests collapse: the focus
ring has nothing to walk, so three TestRealFocusRing tests fail locally
and pass in CI. The mirror was reporting red on a green tree, which is
worse than not mirroring at all. It now uses the workflow's exact
xvfb-run invocation and fails loudly if xvfb-run is missing.

Neither change touches production code: the delete control and its
id-gate were already correct, and the Python suite already passed under a
display (609 passed, 100% coverage).

diet_guard_app

Companion app for diet_guard: log meals on the phone, and on the Linux desktop, sharing one food log through GitHub-backed sync.

Two targets, and only two

Target What it is
Android a normal Flutter app (flutter build apk)
Linux desktop the Flutter web build, served by a local wrapper and shown in a Chrome --app window

There is no linux/ directory. Flutter's GTK embedder manages ~20fps at 3840x2160 -- measured on a stock flutter create counter app, so it is the toolkit rather than this code -- where the same Dart rendered by Chrome sustains ~144fps (~/todo/docs/desktop-performance-findings.md). Running flutter create --platforms linux here would silently restore the slow path.

Commands

flutter test                     # the app's suite
flutter analyze
bash run.sh                      # build the web bundle and launch the desktop app
bash install_arch.sh             # build + install the pacman package and .desktop entry
flutter build apk --release      # the phone build
adb install -r build/app/outputs/flutter-apk/app-release.apk

Never adb uninstall or pm clear this package: both wipe the on-device log.

The desktop wrapper

bin/diet_guard_desktop.dart is the other half of the desktop app, because a browser cannot touch the filesystem. It:

  • serves the built web assets from build/web (or /opt/diet-guard-app/web once packaged);
  • keeps an on-disk copy of every document and photo under ~/.local/share/diet-guard-desktop/, which is what makes a wiped Chrome profile recoverable -- for photos it is the only copy, since they never sync;
  • holds the GitHub token (~/.config/diet_guard_app/sync_token, falling back to the PC gate's ~/.config/diet_guard/sync_token) and proxies api.github.com plus the device flow, whose endpoints send no CORS headers and so cannot be called from a page at all.

The port (8732) and the Chrome --user-data-dir must stay fixed. IndexedDB is keyed by origin and lives inside that profile, so changing either looks to the app like a device with no history.

Platform seams

dart:io does not fail a web compile; it becomes a stub that throws at runtime, so the symptom of a missed seam is a blank white window rather than a build error. Every platform edge is a conditional export -- document_store*, blob_store*, background_tasks*, notification_backend*, token_vault*, github_client_factory*, attached_image*. Branch on kIsWeb before any Platform.is…, which itself throws on web.

What the desktop genuinely loses, by design rather than omission:

  • Background reminders. A browser runs nothing once its window is closed, so the due-slot check runs in-page every 5 minutes while the window is open. On the PC the real backstop is diet-guard-gate.timer, which locks the screen.
  • Camera capture. The browser picker is a file input.
  • Photo sharing between devices -- unchanged: imagePath was always stripped before push.

Sync identity

Three devices push under diet-guard-sync/devices/: pc (the Python gate), phone, and desktop. Each must keep its own id -- two devices sharing one would overwrite each other's pushed log on every tick.
