Link layer slice 5: BLELinkEvent — the port has a name, the delegates have their own files (#1551)
* Cohere per-link Noise auth and rebind containment into BLELinkAuthState

The authenticated-link owners, the reconnect revalidation policy, and
the two rebind-containment cooldowns were four loose bleQueue-owned
maps whose invariants lived in call-site discipline: every teardown
path had to remember to retire the proof AND close the revalidation
epoch (the pair appeared seven times), and both cooldowns hand-rolled
the same prune-check-record dance. BLELinkAuthState owns them as whole
transitions — retireLink, retireLinks(ownedBy:), permitRebind,
permitRedundantRetirement — with the ownership question (bleQueue
today, engine after the option-B flip) answered in one place.

No behavior change; the one call-site reordering (redundant retirement
computes the survivor before the cooldown check instead of after) is
outcome-equivalent since the cooldown only ever recorded when a
survivor existed.

* Split identity-link bindings out of the physical link store

BLELinkStateStore owned two different kinds of truth: what physical
links exist (CB handles, connect lifecycles, characteristics, stream
assemblers) and who each link belongs to (peer bindings in both roles
plus the preferred-peripheral reverse map for directed sends and fanout
collapse). The bindings now live on BLELinkBindings — same bleQueue
ownership, whole-transition methods, direct tests for the rotation
reverse-map cleanup and the preferred-link survivor repair that were
previously only exercised end to end. Composed operations that need
both truths (remove-with-repair, direct link state, the subscribed-
central snapshot, bind-only-live-links) live on the transport as
explicitly bleQueue-confined helpers.

This is the structural half of the option-B boundary flip
(docs/BLE-ARCHITECTURE-V3.md): ownership of the bindings can now move
to the engine without touching what-links-exist. An audit of every
physical clear/remove found three sites (emergency clear, both
unauthorized branches) that needed explicit binding-clear pairing under
the split — each now clears both.

* Fix iOS-gated constructors and preserve containment cooldowns on reset

CI caught what the macOS SwiftPM build cannot see: two #if os(iOS)
sites still passed the peerID field that slice B1 removed from
BLEPeripheralLinkState (willRestoreState in BLEService and
armPendingBackgroundConnects in BLERadioController). Both fixed and
verified with a local iOS simulator xcodebuild.

Codex also caught a real regression: BLELinkAuthState.removeAll()
cleared the rebind/retirement cooldown maps, which the original panic
and emergency reset paths deliberately left alive. A stable
CoreBluetooth UUID must not earn a fresh rebind allowance just because
the session state around it was wiped. removeAll() now clears only the
proofs and revalidation epochs, and BLELinkAuthStateTests pins the
survival invariant along with the other auth-state transitions.

* Link layer slice 3: the option-B domain flip — bindings and link-auth move to the engine

The identity domain (BLELinkBindings + BLELinkAuthState) is now owned
by the engine queue, with a DEBUG dispatchPrecondition trapping any
access from another queue. bleQueue keeps only physical link state.

What changed shape:

- Receive path is sans-I/O: bleQueue decodes frames and hands
  (packet, linkID) up through ingestDecodedPacket (panic lifecycle
  captured at the handoff); attributeAndHandlePacket resolves the
  sender binding, rejects spoofed senders, applies raw-announce
  binding, and records ingress on the engine. Per-link frame order is
  preserved end to end (both queues serial), which supersedes the old
  batch-local TOCTOU binding in the notification path.
- The rotation rebind is one engine slot: containment checks, proof
  retirement, binding flip, reconnect decision, and rotated-identity
  retirement run straight-line; only CoreBluetooth cancels hop to
  bleQueue. The engine->bleQueue->engine ping-pong is gone, along with
  the _test_afterVerifiedDirectRebindEnqueued pause hook — the test
  that used it now asserts the atomicity directly (a paused engine
  wedged the old gate design into a three-queue deadlock).
- Authenticated-send eligibility (notifyOrEnqueueIfAccepted,
  writeOrEnqueueIfAccepted) is checked on the engine, serialized
  against rebinds by construction; only physical admission
  (updateValue/write/backpressure) runs on bleQueue.
- Teardown splits into discardPeripheralLinkPhysical (bleQueue, inline
  in the delegates) + retirePeripheralLinkIdentity (engine hop with
  survivor repair reading liveness via readLinkState). A binding can
  briefly outlive its physical link; liveness queries join against the
  physical store and the queued retirement converges the two.
- Gossip delegate sends enter the engine via onEngine — safe because
  mesh.sync sits above the engine in the sync order (production engine
  code only async-dispatches into the manager).
- checkPeerConnectivity rides an engine slot from the bleQueue
  maintenance tick.

No wire changes. 1,974 tests green (parallel and serial), iOS
simulator build clean, Periphery clean.

* Link layer slice 4: deterministic multi-node mesh simulation — and the panic-announce bug it caught

SimulatedMesh wires real CoreBluetooth-free BLEService engines
edge-to-edge through the outbound packet tap and _test_ingestFrame
(the production attribution path the B2 flip created), with per-edge
synthetic link IDs and manual-scheduler time. Five multi-node tests
run in ~40ms with no wall-clock waits:

- announce exchange binds simulated links and connects peers
- Noise sessions establish end-to-end (real crypto, both directions)
- a public message relays across a line topology inside a TTL/frame
  budget (storm bound asserted)
- an 8x duplicate flood delivers exactly once
- a panic rotation rebinds the survivor's link exactly once and stays
  — the scenario that previously needed two phones and log archaeology

Fidelity boundary (documented in the harness): no physical links, so
fanout planning and backpressure are not exercised; attribution,
binding, dedup, TTL, relay decisions, and sessions are the real
engine code.

The simulator found a real bug on its first run: the forced-announce
throttle's lastSent survived a panic, so a rotation within
bleForceAnnounceMinIntervalSeconds of the last announce silently
swallowed the new identity's announce — leaving it invisible to the
mesh until the next maintenance cycle. Today's device test only
passed because the previous announce happened to be minutes old.
BLEAnnounceThrottle gains reset(), called from the panic slot so the
rotated identity owes no throttle debt; pinned by a unit test and the
mesh rotation test.

New DEBUG seams: _test_ingestFrame (production ingress attribution),
_test_forceAnnounce, _test_fenceEngine.

1,980 tests green, Periphery clean, iOS simulator build clean.

* Link layer slice 5: name the port — BLELinkEvent, one engine entry, delegates in their own files

The upward half of the link-layer port is now a type. BLELinkEvent
enumerates everything the bleQueue link layer tells the engine:
frameDecoded plus the four physical lifecycle transitions
(peripheralLinkEnded, centralLinkEnded, allPeripheralLinksEnded,
allCentralLinksEnded). Every bleQueue→engine crossing goes through
emitLinkEvent into one engine consumer (handleLinkEvent) — the
scattered messageQueue.async identity hops in the delegates collapse
into event emission, and the engine-side retirement/bookkeeping logic
now lives in one switch.

The CoreBluetooth delegate extensions move to their own files as
physical bookkeeping plus event emission:
- BLEService+LinkLayerCentralRole.swift (CBCentralManagerDelegate +
  CBPeripheralDelegate)
- BLEService+LinkLayerPeripheralRole.swift (CBPeripheralManagerDelegate
  + write accumulation)
BLEService.swift drops from 7,836 to ~7,100 lines. The physical-domain
members the role files share flip private→internal; the queue contract
is enforced by the existing DEBUG traps and grep guards, not access
control. (Two of the flips — isAppActive, logBluetoothStatus — only
surfaced on the iOS build; macOS SwiftPM cannot see #if os(iOS) code.
Verified with a local iOS simulator build.)

The simulated mesh now drives lifecycle events through the identical
enum a radio does: linkDropEventRetiresBindingAndReconnectHeals covers
drop → identity retirement → last-link peer bookkeeping → re-announce
heal, entirely through the port. New seam _test_resetAnnounceThrottle
models elapsed wall-clock for the throttle (deliberately separate from
_test_forceAnnounce so the panic-rotation test keeps its regression
value: the production panic path must do its own reset). The panic
test's containment re-announces reset throttles explicitly so those
assertions exercise real delivered announces instead of silently
throttled ones. noiseSessionEstablishesEndToEnd gains a bounded
scheduler-time settle loop after a one-in-many parallel-suite flake
(no wall-clock waits).

Deliberately not done (recorded in docs/BLE-ARCHITECTURE-V3.md): a
formal handle(event)->[Effect] system and further engine-domain file
splits — both would flip the engine's private state to internal for
cosmetic file counts; the effect formalization rides future feature-
module extractions instead.

* Baseline logBluetoothStatus for the macOS Periphery scan

Its callers are all inside #if os(iOS) (willRestoreState in both role
files plus the app-state handlers), so the macOS-scheme scan sees the
now-internal declaration with zero callers — the same class as the
baselined candidateCount. Verified 1-USR diff; the previously private
mangled variant was already baselined, which is why the pre-split scan
never flagged it.

BLE transport architecture V3: one engine domain, capability ports, feature-owned state (#1498)
* Make peer registry and local announce state lock-backed

The main actor answered isPeerConnected/peerNickname/currentPeerSnapshots
and flipped runtime capability bits by blocking on collectionsQueue behind
whatever transport work was in flight. Peer state now lives in a
lock-backed BLEPeerRegistryStore (every registry mutation is a single
whole-transition method, so readers never observe a torn state), and the
runtime capability bits move into BLELocalIdentityStateStore next to the
identity they ride announces with. No transport entry point called from
the main actor blocks on a transport queue for peer state anymore.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Move BLE link egress/ingress buffers to bleQueue ownership

pendingPeripheralWrites, pendingNotifications, and pendingWriteBuffers
were collectionsQueue-guarded, but every producer and drain already runs
on bleQueue next to the CoreBluetooth objects they feed — each access
paid a cross-queue barrier for state that never leaves the radio thread,
and the notification drain even invoked peripheralManager.updateValue
from the collections queue. They are now bleQueue-confined like the link
state store: CB delegate callbacks and drains touch them directly, and
the few engine-side entry points hop to bleQueue (the direction the
transport's sync-edge order already allows). This clears most
bleQueue-to-collectionsQueue sync edges ahead of merging the collections
queue into the message queue.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Stop bleQueue maintenance and status paths from blocking on collectionsQueue

The traffic-burst tracker becomes a lock-backed monitor (written by the
receive pipeline, read by scan-duty adaptation and announce pacing on
bleQueue), the status-log peer summary and topology refresh read the
already lock-backed registry directly, and the stalled-fragment reap
moves to an async collections hop with the gossip resync request inside
it. bleQueue no longer sync-waits on the collections queue anywhere.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Unify the message and collections queues into one serial engine queue

The old model ran a concurrent message queue over a second concurrent
collections queue whose barrier flags served as the real mutual
exclusion — every field carried an ownership comment, and correctness
lived in per-site discipline. The message queue is now a single serial
engine queue that owns all mesh protocol state; the collections queue,
its 98 sync/async hops, and every barrier flag are gone. Cross-thread
callers go through onEngine, which documents and (in debug) enforces
the transport's sync-edge order: main and test threads may block on the
engine, the engine may block on bleQueue and the crypto/identity
queues, and nothing may block the other way.

The debug trap caught two latent inversions the leaf-lock structure had
been masking: the verified-announce rebind path re-resolved the ingress
link through the engine from inside its bleQueue critical section (it
now receives the already-resolved link), and the noise
session-generation closures sync-re-entered the engine from the noise
manager's queue while their own engine slot was blocked on it (they now
touch engine state directly, which the held slot makes exclusive).

BLE throughput is orders of magnitude below what one serial queue
sustains; the full suite runs at identical speed.

* Wire gateway/bridge/panic features to capability ports, not BLEService

App wiring discovered mesh-only features by casting the Transport to
the concrete BLEService class in nine places. Those surfaces are now
three capability protocols — BluetoothStateReporting,
PanicResettingTransport, and MeshBridgingTransport — discovered with
as? like any optional capability, so the bootstrapper, panic flow, and
lifecycle coordinator no longer name the concrete transport at all. A
future second mesh transport picks up gateway/bridge wiring and the
panic lifecycle by conforming, and the remaining Transport god-protocol
requirements can migrate to the same pattern.

* Extract mesh-ping diagnostics state into a pure engine-confined tracker

First slice of the feature-module direction: BLEMeshPingTracker owns the
outstanding-probe map and the per-link inbound response budget as pure
state (register/resolve/expire/reset), so the security invariants — a
pong only resolves against the probed peer, the budget keys on the
ingress link because claimed senders are forgeable, panic reset drops
probes and budget together — are now unit-tested without queues or
radios. The transport keeps only packet I/O, timers, and main-actor
delivery around it.

* Document the V3 transport architecture and remaining roadmap

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* Resolve the pass-6 review findings and the proof-timeout drain defect

Periphery: the registry store's unused forwarders are gone (the struct
method stays — it has direct tests). F1: refreshPeerIdentity,
deliverBridgedEnvelope, and the three panic fences route through
onEngine, so every sync entry onto the engine now carries the bleQueue
trap. F2: the registry-store ownership comments state the real writer
set (engine plus the two bleQueue link-drop paths). F7:
BLEQueueContractTests pins the contract — only onEngine may sync-enter
the engine, transport code never sync-dispatches to main, and the
collections queue stays deleted — with a queue-contract-ok waiver for
the two sanctioned lines.

The real defect behind the timeoutRestoredSession CI flake: a
timeout-restore parks the outbound queues until the convergence retry,
but the capability-proof watchdog armed at the original authentication
kept draining them when it fired — encrypting the parked traffic under
restored keys the counterpart may have discarded, the exact silent loss
the defer path exists to prevent. Deferred peers are now tracked and
the watchdog drain respects the same rule; the test fires the watchdog
deterministically inside the deferred window instead of losing that
race only on stalled runners.

* Extract private-media session state into a lock-backed store

The six generation-keyed maps plus the convergence-deferral set move
out of BLEService into BLEPrivateMediaSessionStore, each transition one
whole method under a leaf lock with direct unit tests (generation
rotation rejects mismatched waiters, stale proofs cannot classify a
replacement session, expiry requires the live deadline identity, clears
rebase waiters onto a nil-generation deadline, peer-state sends are
once per generation per kind).

Being a leaf lock also simplifies two contracts: the send policy is now
answered entirely from locks (the main actor no longer sync-enters the
engine for it), and the noise-manager critical sections call ordinary
store methods instead of relying on the held-engine-slot direct-access
subtlety.

* Split the mesh-only Transport surface into capability protocols

Transport kept ~50 requirements that only the BLE mesh implements —
files/private media, voice, courier, groups, board, diagnostics,
verification, archive — held together by an extension of inert
defaults, so every call site compiled against a surface most transports
faked. Those are now eight capability protocols (MeshFileTransferring,
MeshVoiceStreaming, MeshCourierTransporting, MeshGroupMessaging,
MeshBoardBroadcasting, MeshDiagnosing, MeshVerifying,
MeshPublicArchiving) discovered with as?, joining the bridging/panic
ports from the previous pass. Consumers resolve the capability they
need; where the old defaults encoded a safe floor the caller keeps it
explicitly (private-media policy degrades to blockedDowngrade). The
inert-defaults extension is deleted, along with the never-implemented
acceptPendingFile/declinePendingFile pair. NostrTransport is untouched
— it only ever implemented the core.

* Drop the dead three-argument sendFilePrivate overload

Every production caller goes through the allowLegacyFallback variant;
the short form only existed as a Transport-era forwarding default.
Tests that used it on the concrete service now state the fallback
decision explicitly, which is the point of the parameter.

* Decide the link-auth boundary: bindings become engine-owned

The atomicity that keeps link-auth on bleQueue exists to stop a binding
from changing between a security check and its action; once every
rebind is an engine operation, the engine's serial slot gives the same
guarantee, the stolen-link residual is unchanged (directed payloads are
Noise ciphertext), and the receive path lands in its sans-I/O shape —
the link layer reports bytes-plus-linkID and the engine resolves the
sender. Records the extraction order too: the binding-free radio half
first (after #1521 lands — it collides in the scanPlan region), then
bindings, then the delegates behind the port.

* Fix two bleQueue-to-engine sync edges the queue merge created

The collections-to-engine conversion turned two formerly leaf-lock
sync calls into onEngine calls reachable from bleQueue, where the
debug trap (correctly) aborts: flushDirectedSpool runs from bleQueue
maintenance and now hops to the engine asynchronously, and ingress
recording — which must answer the duplicate gate on bleQueue the
moment a frame decodes — moves to a lock-backed BLEIngressLinkStore
read by the engine's relay and routing decisions.

Unit suites never hit either path (no CoreBluetooth managers means no
maintenance timer and no live receive path); the iOS simulator job
boots the real app as its test host, which is exactly where the
maintenance trap fired. The ingress one would have trapped a real
device on its first received packet — worth a device pass before
release.

* Route all deferred engine work through an injectable scheduler

Relay jitter, announce delays, the ping and capability-proof deadlines,
notification retry backoff, and fragment pacing all reached the engine
through raw messageQueue.asyncAfter with product constants as deadlines
— the hidden-elapsed-deadline flake class that the test-timing hygiene
rules exist to contain, testable only by racing the wall clock.
BLEEngineScheduling is now the transport's single source of engine
delay: production is a thin veneer over the engine queue, tests inject
a manually advanced clock whose advance() returns only after the
released work has finished on the engine. The queue-contract test pins
the seam (no raw messageQueue.asyncAfter), and the ping deadline gets
the pattern's proof: the real 10s constant asserted in milliseconds —
must not fire early, fires exactly once at the deadline, stays consumed
after.
