Problem

Upstream Silo syncs left several Prairie features compiled but unreachable or unwired. The Prairie types survived, so nothing failed to build, but no screen called them. I audited every merged Prairie PR (#1–#34) by checking that each PR's added lines still exist anywhere in the tree (accounting for renames such as ArtworkURL → ArtworkVariantURL and Continuum → Prairie), then checked each feature's call sites.

Feature (PR) Before this PR Evidence
First-run connect list + LAN discovery (#8, #21) Lost ConnectServerListView had no caller; needsServerSetup showed ServerSetupView directly
Quick Connect approver (#22, #24) Lost QuickConnectView had no caller after the iOS settings restyle (IOSSettingsOverview)
App update status in About (#18) Partial tvOS intact; iOS/macOS About showed version only
X-Prairie-Image-Formats header (#23) Partial only LanDiscovery sent it; HTTPClient, downloads and pairing lost it
Trickplay scrub previews (#28) Partial tvOS scrubber intact; iOS bubble showed only Aether's frame, never server sprite tiles
Hosted diagnostics host (rebrand) Regressed sync #31 brought https://diagnostics.siloserver.org; Android uses diagnostics.prairieserver.org
Live TV session contract Gap server reclaims a tuner after 90 s with no segment fetch or POST …/sessions/{id}/heartbeat; the Apple player never sent heartbeats, so a paused stream lost its tuner

Fix

  • needsServerSetup roots a NavigationStack at ConnectServerListView again. Manual entry and tvOS phone pairing stay behind Add manually.
  • iOS Settings gets a Quick Connect row near the top, plus update status, latest version, changelog and release links in About. The macOS settings list gets both.
  • ImageFormats.apply(to:) stamps the header in HTTPClient (both auth paths), DownloadSessionDelegate and PairingDeviceAPI.
  • The iOS scrub bubble prefers the server trickplay tile, then Aether's decoded frame, then the chapter still. This matches tvOS.
  • Hosted diagnostics use diagnostics.prairieserver.org. The collector ID silo-public-diagnostics-v1 is unchanged, matching Android.
  • LiveTVPlayerView sends a heartbeat every 30 s while it is open. The /api/v1 allowlist count for PrairieAPI+LiveTV.swift goes from 10 to 11.

Sync-loss guard

  • scripts/prairie-invariants.txt + scripts/check-prairie-invariants.sh use the same format as prairie-server. 47 anchors cover the rebrand, Live TV API/gating/tabs, stats HUD wiring, trickplay, artwork, the connect list, Quick Connect, update status and CI gates.
  • New workflow Prairie invariants runs on ubuntu for every PR and push to main, with no path filters.
  • docs/upstream-sync.md gives the sync rules and post-merge checks. .gitignore un-ignores the file.
  • With this manifest, current main fails 11 invariants. This branch passes all 47.

Verified intact (no change)

Rebrand (bundle IDs, PrairieAPI, X-Prairie-* identity headers, tvOS wordmark, dusk palette), Live TV tab/root gating, guide/channels/recordings tabs, DVR scheduling, stats for nerds (tvOS Info HUD pane, iOS overlay), artwork width variants + AVIF/WebP/PNG cascade, coverage CI gate. The origin-stream resume fixes (#6, #12) no longer apply: upstream replaced that player with AetherEngine.

Not changed

  • Some SF Symbol button icons from feat(ui): add SF Symbol icons to action buttons #25 are gone from screens upstream restyled (Aurora auth screens, a few settings sheets). This is cosmetic, so I left it alone.
  • diagnostics.prairieserver.org does not resolve in DNS yet. That matches Android, but hosted report upload fails until the collector exists. Before this PR, reports went to Silo's collector.

Validation

  • scripts/check-prairie-invariants.sh and scripts/ci/check-no-api-v1.sh pass locally.
  • Swift build and tests run in CI: Apple regression (iOS, tvOS, macOS) and Unit Tests.

…t guard

Upstream syncs left several Prairie features compiled but unreachable or
unwired. Restore them:

- First-run connect list (Saved + LAN discovery) is the needsServerSetup
  root again; manual entry and tvOS phone pairing stay behind "Add manually".
- iOS Settings: Quick Connect row near the top and About update status,
  latest version, changelog and release links. macOS gets both too.
- X-Prairie-Image-Formats on API, download and pairing requests again.
- iOS scrub bubble shows server trickplay tiles (then Aether's frame, then
  the chapter still), matching the tvOS scrubber.
- Hosted diagnostics point at diagnostics.prairieserver.org (Android
  parity) instead of Silo's collector.
- Live TV player heartbeats its tuner session every 30 s so a paused
  stream is not reclaimed after the server's 90 s idle TTL.

Add scripts/prairie-invariants.txt + check-prairie-invariants.sh, a
"Prairie invariants" workflow on every PR, and docs/upstream-sync.md.
On current main the guard reports 11 failures; on this branch all 47 hold.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 64da6

The changes are mergeable with bounded follow-up: preserve scrub-preview fallback artwork and make the Prairie collector available before releasing hosted diagnostics uploads.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 64da6

Restored sign-in approval can act on a different code than the device shown, and failed Live TV playback can continue holding a tuner. Authentication and close controls limit exposure. The diagnostics destination change also needs continuity checks for previously uploaded reports.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · security · inferred: The newly reachable Quick Connect flow does not bind approval to the code and identity used for lookup. While lookup is in flight, the user can edit the code; the returned device details and match phrase can then describe request A while approval sends code B. Decisions also re-read the current server and credential instead of retaining the lookup authority. These controls predate the PR, but the added callers make their consent-binding weakness newly exposed.
  • Medium · reliability · inferred: The new heartbeat renews a tuner claim while the player view exists, including after playback enters its error state. Playback failure sets an error message but does not stop renewal or release the session. On a server honoring the documented heartbeat contract, an unusable stream can therefore hold shared tuner capacity until dismissal or interruption, weakening failure containment compared with inactivity-based reclamation.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The approval concern affects sign-in delegation by an authenticated account to a device identified by a valid pending code. It is not an established unauthenticated bypass. Resulting token privileges and rejection of cross-account decisions depend on server enforcement that is outside the available source.
  • inferred — Failed-session renewal concerns the tuner capacity claimed by an authenticated Live TV session on the selected server. Impact on other viewers depends on that server's tuner pool and allocation policy; those limits are not supplied.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A consent-mismatch path is lookup of code A, editing the still-enabled field to valid code B during the request, display of A's device and match phrase, and approval using B. Exploitation requires influence over the entered code and an authenticated user's approval; no remote mechanism for changing the field is established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Quick Connect requires an eight-character normalized code and a nonempty bearer, and permits decisions only in the ready, pending, non-submitting state. The UI presents a match phrase for confirmation. These controls constrain ordinary use but do not establish equality between the displayed request and the later decision code.
  • observed — Hosted diagnostics uses an installation credential rather than the media-server bearer. Upload rejects manifests containing a profile ID or playback-session IDs, validates report acknowledgements, and rejects redirects carrying credentials or bundle data. These are counterevidence against treating the host change as an unrestricted credential transfer.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Live TV cleanup retains useful bounds: known empty or unresolvable playback URLs release their returned session, and dismissal marks didRelease before scheduling deletion. The heartbeat checks cancellation and didRelease, but playback failure is not a release transition and heartbeat or deletion errors are discarded.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Bind each pending approval to an immutable code, server, account generation, and lookup result. Invalidate it on edits or identity changes, reject stale completions, and reserve the decision transition before awaiting credentials. Reconcile ambiguous outcomes without blindly replaying approval.
  • proposed — Distinguish intentional pause from terminal playback failure in lease ownership. Stop renewal and release unusable sessions, and make expired-session and release failures observable with bounded recovery.
  • proposed — Establish whether the old and new diagnostics hosts share report ownership. If they do not, preserve origin-specific credentials and deletion routing during migration and rollback rather than replacing the only credential needed to delete older reports.

Keep fallback artwork visible when the trickplay image is unavailable.

TrickplayTileImage renders only a translucent placeholder while LazyImage has no decoded image. Because MobilePlayerControls selects this view whenever scrubTrickplayTile metadata exists, it hides an available scrubPreviewImage and chapter thumbnail during loading and after a failed image request. This removes scrub artwork but does not prevent seeking or playback.

Show the fallback artwork until the trickplay image loads successfully, and keep it available if loading fails. Preserve the trickplay tile as the preferred artwork after it loads.
