App Control APIFeature

macOS alpha lane. Bearer-authenticated /v1/local/app routes control the real visible app. AppControlKit owns the wire descriptors, registry actor, SwiftUI page-root modifier, injected-clock transaction state machine, and NavigationDestinationProviding, AXWalking, and AppCapturing seams. The app shell injects its typed destination catalog/navigation adapter, in-process accessibility walker, concrete capture composition, and HTTP route provider. The Local API provider list remains the sole route-registration owner. Settings root and Translate hub are the initial declarative registry surfaces; feature/API coverage remains partial while all other catalogued surfaces honestly report AX or unavailable coverage.

FeatureAutoPaste owns completion policy, manual-paste preview, destination-capture delay, and copy/paste/prompt/wait/capture orchestration. The app shell only supplies platform side-effect adapters for clipboard writes, CGEvent paste simulation, notifications, HUD, and destination capture.

Beta Telemetry (Sentry) — GOLD STANDARD MODULEFeature

Reference module for the modular architecture. Facade always present; the Sentry impl is linked/injected by the macOS Beta target — which BOTH the beta channel AND the alpha overlay (Beta scheme + ALPHA) build on, so telemetry runs on alpha AND beta (not beta-only). Alpha is mandatory (opt-out ignored); beta is opt-out via betaDisableSentry. Stable Outdoor + App Store link no Sentry backend at all. Release flows bake SENTRY_DSN (into Info.plist); unseeded local builds no-op. Events are tagged with environment=alpha/beta + release=<version>+<build>.

Compute / Model Link (discovery, remote cat, P2P, VNC + audio, SSH, Terminal3D)Feature

Cross-platform. FeatureCompute owns per-device host-profile, saved-computer, recent-connection, Catty favorite-folder, manual-host, Remote Cat credential, SSH credential, and VNC credential stores, SSH handoff command policy, the versioned PCM/multipart/jitter/security contract for the app-peer VNC audio side-channel, pure Tailscale status parsing/mapping, Tailscale CLI path/argument/environment policy, Tailscale section subtitle/state presentation, Tailscale serve DNS/funnel status policy, and tailnet service probe response classification/model-list decoding. Shared discovery contracts, Compute persistence models, and P2P Model Link peer/Bonjour/loopback contract are packaged in LocalAIContracts; VNC UI is packaged in RoyalVNCKitUI. Networking discovery/probing/cloud sync, Tailscale CLI process execution, tailnet HTTPS transport/TLS fingerprint capture, P2P advertise/browse/relay transport, sharing orchestration, audio capture/playback and VNC-session UI, SSH Terminal/pasteboard side effects, Terminal3D shell-spawn, and Compute UI remain app-owned. Two-way audio is a bearer-token-gated `/v1` side-channel, appears only for `hasModelServer` peers, prefers Tailscale HTTPS/WireGuard, and tears down with VNC; plain RFB remains screen-only. Terminal3D shell-spawn is Outdoor macOS only (→ iOS partial); remote-cat and iOS AWDL P2P model surfaces are contributed through the ChatBackend registry (ModelCatalogContributor), so the runtime catalog no longer injects them inline. TERMINAL: the remaining app-owned networking/transport/SSH/Terminal3D/VNC and Compute UI are irreducible app-shell. Apple Events (NSAppleScript) opens Terminal.app for SSH on Outdoor macOS.

Device Snap Capture (timestamped multi-source screenshots + transcript)Feature

macOS / Alpha only. docs/planning/GOAL-device-snap-capture.md. SnapCaptureKit's pure target owns the multi-source SnapSessionWriter/README/clipboard-path, SnapSessionController, SnapCaptureSource seam, and additive transcription event contract. Its macOS SnapCapturePlatform target owns SnapCaptureCoordinator, SnapWindowCaptureSource (SCScreenshotManager), SnapDeviceCaptureSource, the device preview manager/windows, and the DEBUG -snap_device_spike runner over SnapDeviceCaptureKit's CoreMediaIO/AVFoundation DAL implementation. SnapCaptureLaunchParticipant is the sole owner of device enumeration and transcription-observer startup/teardown; the old QuickCaptureFeatureController direct lifecycle call is gone and singleton resolution stays lazy. The existing `.quickCapture` Utilities UIContribution retains the same order/action but is now catalogued to snap-capture while requiring the shared Quick Capture host. Snapshot behavior and paths are unchanged. PENDING: live DAL verification that a trusted/unlocked cabled iPhone supplies its screen rather than camera, plus S3 overlay ergonomics. Camera prompt occurs on device-window open; Screen Recording permission occurs on window/display capture.

GGUF backend (llama.cpp sidecar)Feature

macOS / Outdoor + Beta only. Sidecar-first (see docs/planning/done/gguf-backend-spike-notes.md): FeatureGGUF's LlamaServerSidecar actor locates a llama-server binary, spawns it on a free loopback port for the selected .gguf model, health-checks /health, detects crashes and restarts (bounded), and terminates gracefully. GGUFChatBackend proxies /v1/chat/completions SSE into LocalAITextGenerationEvents behind the SAME LocalAITextGenerating seam RemoteCatBackend uses, registered through ChatBackendRegistry with a `gguf:`-prefixed model contributor. GGUF-only LM Studio dirs are no longer rejected by ExternalModelSource — they carry format=.gguf and are served here instead of the MLX loader. Physically absent from App Store + iOS (package unlinked, FEATURE_GGUF undefined). Deferred: bundling llama-server (size + signing/notarization) and GGUF model-download UX.

FeatureGlobalTranscription owns GlobalTranscriptionService session state and public lifecycle, queue/orchestration policy, GlobalTranscriptionFeatureController/LaunchParticipant, the live .menuBar contribution and detailed engine/background controls, TranscriptionWindowManager plus loading/recording/status views, and FeatureAutoPaste completion orchestration. The package participant, contribution factory, service, and window manager are the sole live owners; the former app service/window/menu paths are removed. The app injects Whisper/audio/history runtime effects, Carbon/NSEvent hotkey registration, CGWindow active-window capture, TCC permission checks/requests, one NSPanel host, and clipboard/CGEvent/notification paste effects. APPLE PERMISSION DIFFERENCE: Outdoor uses an NSEvent global monitor for a configurable modifier-only hotkey (default Right ⌘), gated on Accessibility (AXIsProcessTrusted); Indoor uses Carbon RegisterEventHotKey for a fixed ⌃⌥Space with no special permission. Screen Recording remains required for active-window title routing. PENDING: hotkey, menu-bar, panel, permission, active-window capture, and paste verification in a real macOS session.

LM Studio model interopFeature

macOS / Outdoor + Beta only. LMStudioModelSource (walk ~/.lmstudio/models/<org>/<model>, validate against the app completeness rule, reject partial/.part/sharded-without-index, route GGUF-only dirs to the GGUF backend via format=.gguf, infer capabilities from config.json) is packaged in LocalAICore and unit-tested with fixtures + the real on-disk library. The LocalAIExternalModelServing provider protocol and registry + GET /v1/local/models/external, POST /external/import (idempotent symlink + .userAdded catalog contribution), POST /refresh, and the GET /v1/models merge live in LocalAIHTTPServer (route-tested). The app registers LocalAIExternalModelService at composition time; it owns only the symlink link-in (~/Library/Caches/models/<org>/<model> → the LM Studio dir; never clobbers a real dir), .userAdded projection, and HubSnapshotDownloader's local-first short-circuit so a complete local/imported model loads offline without a HubApi network revision-check.

INDOOR DIFFERENCE: token required by default in Indoor. The app retains NWListener binding, notification delivery, settings composition, menu-bar side effects, and microphone recording execution; startup and termination now resolve that adapter lazily through packaged launch participants. The existing `.localAPI` UIContribution ID, Local API & Automation group, order, availability, and visible settings surface remain unchanged.

Lyrics Player (Apple Music + live translation)Feature

Play Apple Music (ApplicationMusicPlayer via MusadoraKit on macOS) and read lyrics translated live — whole-line contextual translation plus a per-word interlinear gloss. Lyrics come from the community LRCLIB database. Translation prefers the on-device Foundation Model (Apple Intelligence, no language-pack download) and falls back to Apple's Translation framework; both engines are vendored INTO FeatureLyrics so the feature stays App-Store-decoupled and self-contained. Core also compiles for iOS (companion mode), but ships macOS-only since there is no iOS Outdoor target.

MLXServe embedded listenerFeature

Cross-platform default-off A/B infrastructure. Adds FEATURE_MLXSERVE_EMBED and links only the MLXServeHTTP product from local-ai-cat/mlxserve. The adapter implements mlxserve's OpenAIChatBackend over the app's existing GenerationQueue/TextGenerationRuntime lineage, preserving the single resident model runtime invariant. Start and termination are registered through LaunchParticipant and receive the app runtime's shared GenerationQueue handle through injection. macOS keeps the out-of-process sidecar as the default A/B path; iOS can opt into an in-process loopback listener on port 11435 for device validation.

MLXServe sidecarFeature

macOS Outdoor/Beta only. FeatureMLXServeSidecar owns configuration, settings reads, model/cache path resolution, subprocess launch/supervision, health polling, model discovery, log rotation, status state, and lazy startup/termination participants. The app injects only main-Bundle resolution for Contents/Resources/mlxserve/mlxserve-http and AppLog forwarding. The new focused package was chosen instead of folding the operationally independent subprocess into the embedded MLXServe module. FEATURE_MLXSERVE_SIDECAR still bundles mlxserve-http plus mlx.metallib only when MLXSERVE_BINARY_DIR is supplied; missing artifacts still report binary not bundled. The sidecar remains the same default-off second listener on port 11435, points at the same LLM and WhisperKit roots, and leaves legacy :11434 untouched. Its settings remain in exactly the same visible position inside the existing `.localAPI` UIContribution; no separate sidecar row or gate was introduced. The A/B phase deliberately permits double-loading because the sidecar process and app runtime pool are separate until serving unification.

omlx sidecar (Python MLX oracle)Feature

macOS / Alpha only. Bridge track from docs/planning/done/omlx-sidecar-plan.md: FeatureOMLXSidecar's SidecarProcess spawns/health-polls/tears down the omlx server, SidecarBackend adapts its /v1/chat/completions SSE (incl. reasoning_content + streamed tool_calls) into LocalAITextGenerationEvents, and SidecarRouting sends big/coding downloaded MLX models to the sidecar (H1: unloads the in-process runtime first). OMLXSidecarRegistration owns ChatBackendRegistry registration, while OMLXSidecarTerminationParticipant owns process teardown; no app-side sidecar startup or parallel lifecycle path remains. Engine policy via localAI.engineSelectionMode (auto/forceNative/forceSidecar) in Advanced Settings lets us A/B the native runtime vs omlx through the same app surfaces.
