Android’s workspace navigation, conversation controls and recovery screens had diverged from the iOS companion. This draft brings the audited flows closer to the iOS reference and includes the subsequent workspace-list and Intent-menu refinements.

Changes

• Keep Send available beside Stop; page and collapse questions with whole-row selection; compact queued messages.
• Add workspace grouping/search and status metadata, compact rows without descriptions, clearer details, left/right edge drawers, Search beside the grouping control and a soft header fade.
• Use Intent dandelion/close artwork and a reversible menu-button morph, including the grey open state.
• Improve pairing/trust guidance, reconnect feedback and ownership refresh. Stop retrying WebSocket 401/403 rejection while retaining retry for transient failures.
• Render inline note tasks, linked status and relation navigation; improve creation choices and transfer confirmation/recovery.
• Polish Assistant history, settings, agent groups/watched links and terminal controls. Add local terminal names, saved browser previews and workspace script controls that disable offline.
• Add bounded numbered/wrappable file reading, explicit external PDF-reader access and searchable Git commit files/details.

Reference: iOS 6a814fbb24f70a6870ed9ba94868c4339d4374cd (1.1.9). ios-parity.json records implemented scope and remaining gaps.

Validation

• ./gradlew build ktlintCheck detekt test :app:assembleDebugAndroidTest passed on final head 7fd6951ed3533b451c2d2d437de1cce6742eac1e.
• Both IntentLauncherTest cases passed on Android 16, including animation reversal, appearance changes, dismissal and action callbacks; final light/dark captures reviewed.
• Earlier integrated runs exercised conversation/question controls, notes/tasks, pairing, creation/transfer, workspace details/drawers, files/Git, agents/terminals and browser/script resources.
• Workspace edge gestures/search and list scrolling/group restoration were checked on the emulator; the fade scenario passed in both themes. These broader device runs preceded the final icon-only change.

Remaining verification and scope

Keep this as a draft. Live Tailcat/camera/permission flows, live transfer/script execution, TalkBack/large text, tablets and background behavior still need device checks. The app remains under development.

Deferred: top-level PR browsing, slash-skill catalog integration, full note editing, synchronized terminal names, full code/diff highlighting, in-app accessible PDF extraction, script creation/output/history and host-tab discovery.
