…ogging Two narrow fixes that together resolve Freshdesk #173774 / #173778 / #173826 (Derek's "Failed to fetch installed apps" empty list on Windows split tunneling). Split out from #8706 so they can land independently of the broader app-discovery rework that PR also contained. 1. **GetEnabledApps returns []string{} instead of nil.** When no apps are split-tunneled, the previous code returned nil, which json.Marshal serialized as "null". Dart's jsonDecode("null") returns null; the receiving code does `as List`, which throws and the UI shows "Failed to fetch installed apps". Initializing as an empty slice serializes to "[]" — Dart parses that as an empty list, no exception, no error UI. THIS is the actual root cause of the empty-list reports we've been chasing; the apps-discovery scanner work was investigating a different (also-real but secondary) issue. 2. **UI-process slog wired up via common.Init.** On the refactor branch, the UI process never called common.Init. slog wrote to stderr (= nowhere on a GUI host), settings were uninitialized, no lantern.log was produced outside the daemon. Patrick caught this — it was a one-line miss in the refactor. Platform-aware so we don't double-init on platforms where the backend embeds in-process: - windows/linux: full common.Init (separate UI + daemon procs) - darwin/ios: setupAppLogging into a distinct lantern-app.log so the main-app slog doesn't race the tunnel extension's lantern.log on lumberjack rotation - android: Mobile.SetupRadiance already ran common.Init upstream — fall through 3. **Auto-attach UI-process *.log to ReportIssue (windows/linux only).** Without it the daemon's archive glob only sees the daemon's logDir; UI-side lantern.log + flutter.log never reach the issue bundle. The daemon runs as SYSTEM on Windows; we keep UI logDir at %PUBLIC%\Lantern\logs so SYSTEM can read it. The broader Windows app-discovery work from #8706 (App Paths scan, Run keys, Squirrel pattern, isAppPathsNoise heuristic filters) is being held in a separate PR for independent review.

Pull request overview
Fixes Windows split-tunneling “Failed to fetch installed apps” caused by null JSON for an empty enabled-apps list, and restores UI-process logging (plus UI log attachment forwarding to Report Issue) in the refactored LanternCore UI process.
Changes:
- Ensure
GetEnabledAppsmarshals an empty list as[](notnull) by initializingenabledAppsto an empty slice. - Add platform-specific UI-process logging initialization in
LanternCore.initialize(fullcommon.Initon windows/linux; separatelantern-app.logon darwin/ios). - Forward UI-process
*.logfiles to the daemon viaReportIssueattachments on windows/linux.

…en't lost On Android the entire app runs in a single process, so once common.Init runs slog.SetDefault covers everything. But common.Init only runs deep inside SetupRadiance / StartIPCServer, which LanternVpnService launches asynchronously from an intent fired by MainActivity.startLanternService. Any slog call emitted in the gap — including any of the wide MethodHandler surface that Flutter can reach before the VPN service is up — falls through to the stdlib default (text → stderr → logcat at INFO), so DEBUG logs vanish and the format diverges from what we use everywhere else. Add Mobile.InitLogging as a thin gomobile-exposed wrapper around common.Init, and call it from MainActivity.configureFlutterEngine before startLanternService. common.Init is guarded by an atomic.Bool, so the later call from backend.NewLocalBackend is a no-op. Mirrors PR #8709 (Windows). Reported on Slack by Jigar. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: upload and notify for nightlies even when some platforms fail (#8649)
The upload-s3 and upload-release-artifacts jobs required ALL platform
builds to succeed or be skipped. When a matrix entry failed (e.g.,
Linux arm64), the entire build-linux job reported as 'failure', which
caused both upload jobs to skip entirely — even though macOS, Android,
iOS, and Linux amd64 all succeeded.
Simplify the condition: run uploads if at least one platform build
succeeded. The upload steps already handle missing artifacts gracefully
(upload_if_exists checks for file existence).
This ensures the Slack notification goes out with download links for
whatever platforms did build successfully.

* mobile: return string instead of []byte + update Swift callers (#8663)
* mobile: return string instead of []byte from gomobile-exported funcs
The gomobile wrapper copies Go pointer-containing return values to the C
thread stack using runtime.wbMove. When a GC cycle runs during the copy,
bulkBarrierPreWrite panics because the destination isn't GC-tracked.
Returning string avoids this — gomobile marshals strings via C heap
allocation rather than leaving them as Go slice headers.
See getlantern/engineering#3175 for the full crash analysis (from
Freshdesk #172640 — Derek reporting "Lantern Crash" on macOS 26.3.1).
Go changes:
AvailableFeatures, UserData, FetchUserData, GetAvailableServers,
GetSelectedServerJSON, OAuthLoginCallback, AcknowledgeGooglePurchase,
AcknowledgeApplePurchase, Login, Logout, DeleteAccount
Swift changes (macos + ios): preserve Flutter contract by converting
the string back to Data for methods whose Dart side reads `bytes` via
utf8.decode (getUserData, fetchUserData, oauthLoginCallback, login,
logout, deleteAccount, acknowledgeInAppPurchase). For methods whose Dart
side expects String (featureFlags, getLanternAvailableServers,
getSelectedServerJSON), just pass the gomobile string directly.

* android: update MethodHandler for string-returning gomobile bindings
The gomobile-exported funcs in lantern-core/mobile/mobile.go now return
string instead of []byte. The generated Android binding will therefore
return String where it used to return ByteArray.
For each affected method, match what the iOS handler does so the Flutter
platform-channel contract stays stable:
* Methods whose Dart callers expect bytes (Uint8List) — login,
logout, deleteAccount, userData, fetchUserData, oauthLoginCallback,
acknowledgeGooglePurchase — convert the String result via
`.toByteArray(Charsets.UTF_8)` before calling success() (mirrors
Swift's `.data(using: .utf8)`).
* Methods whose Dart callers expect a String — availableFeatures,
getAvailableServers, getSelectedServerJSON — drop the
`String(byteArray)` constructor and use the return value directly,
with the same "{}" / "[]" empty-default that iOS uses.

* encapsulate ipc.Client behind LanternCore interface
Route all IPC operations through LanternCore methods instead of
exposing Client() to callers. Add GetSelectedServerTag,
GetAutoLocationJSON, CheckDaemonReachable, PatchSettings, and
VPNStatusEvents to the Core interface. Update FFI and mobile layers
to use them, and remove now-unused vpn_tunnel helper functions.
Also includes Flutter-side fixes: device-removal sign-in race
condition, plans fetch retry logic, and private server setup
improvements.
* ios/macos: drop invalid optional-chaining on non-optional String (#8671)
The gomobile-exported functions in lantern-core/mobile/mobile.go were
migrated from ([]byte, error) to (string, error). gomobile renders the
new signatures with a non-optional Swift String return (Data was
optional; String is not), so `json?.data(using: .utf8)` and
`payload?.data(using: .utf8)` now fail to compile:
error: cannot use optional chaining on non-optional value of type
'String'
Drop the `?` on all 14 call sites (7 each in ios/ and macos/). The
resulting `json.data(using: .utf8)` returns Data? anyway — an empty
Go string still produces a non-nil empty Data, which preserves the
Flutter contract the comment on these lines describes.

* add android-test + android-reproduce for emulator testing and ticket reproduction (#8672)
* add android-test script for quick emulator testing with env overrides
Usage:
scripts/android/android-test <apk> [ENV_KEY=VALUE ...]
Example:
scripts/android/android-test lantern.apk RADIANCE_COUNTRY=BG RADIANCE_FEATURE_OVERRIDES=dns_ruleset_host_bypass
Starts an emulator, installs the APK, pushes a .env file with overrides
to the app's data dir (via adb root on Google APIs images, run-as on
debug APKs, or su on rooted devices), restarts the app, and streams
filtered logcat.
Prefers the "lantern-test" AVD if it exists (create with Google APIs
image for root access):
sdkmanager "system-images;android-35;google_apis;arm64-v8a"
avdmanager create avd -n lantern-test -k "system-images;android-35;google_apis;arm64-v8a"

* address review: serial targeting, su quoting, trap cleanup, fix comment
- Use -s <serial> throughout so multiple devices don't break adb
- Fix su -c quoting so $(stat ...) expands on-device
- Add trap to clean up temp .env on EXIT/INT/TERM
- Fix header comment (no /sdcard/ fallback)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* android-test: push .env to .lantern data dir (not app root)
The Go env package reads .env from the data directory (via
env.LoadFromDir called from common.Init), not from the app's root
data dir. Push to /data/data/$PKG/.lantern/.env so radiance finds it.
Companion: getlantern/radiance#421 (env.LoadFromDir)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* android-test: auto-install system image and create AVD if none exists
If no AVDs are found, the script now automatically:
1. Detects host arch (arm64 vs x86_64)
2. Installs the Google APIs system image via sdkmanager
3. Creates a "lantern-test" AVD via avdmanager
This means running android-test on a fresh machine with just the
Android SDK installed works out of the box — no manual AVD setup.

* address review: array for ADB_CMD, timeouts, remove unused PID
- Use bash array for ADB_CMD so paths with spaces work correctly
- Add configurable timeouts for emulator appear (120s) and boot (300s)
- Remove unused EMULATOR_PID — emulator intentionally left running
between invocations so subsequent runs don't pay boot cost

* add android-reproduce: reproduce Freshdesk tickets on emulator
Usage:
android-reproduce /tmp/ticket-172722 # auto-downloads APK
android-reproduce /tmp/ticket-172722 lantern.apk # uses provided APK
After running /analyze-ticket, this script:
1. Extracts country + version from the ticket's config/logs
2. Downloads the matching APK from GitHub releases (gh CLI)
3. Pushes the user's exact config.json, servers.json, split-tunnel.json
to the emulator so it gets the same proxies, DNS rules, rule sets
4. Sets RADIANCE_COUNTRY to match the user's region
5. Installs, restarts, and streams filtered logcat
This gives near-exact reproduction of Android-specific issues by
replicating the user's proxy assignments, country routing, and
sing-box config on a local emulator.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* android-reproduce: match user's Android API level from ticket logs
Extracts sdkInt, osVersion, and model from flutter.log's "Device info"
line. Creates an AVD with the matching API level (e.g. "lantern-api36"
for a user on Android 16/SDK 36). Falls back to API 35 if the target
image isn't available.
Example for ticket #172722 (Android 16, SM-A556B):
Creates lantern-api35 (API 36 clamped to 35), installs matching APK,
pushes user's exact config.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* android-reproduce: dynamically find closest available API image
Instead of hardcoding a fallback to API 35, step down from the user's
sdkInt until we find an installable Google APIs image. Each API level
gets its own AVD (lantern-api29, lantern-api34, etc.) that persists
across runs, building up a catalog over time.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* address review: install-before-push, fix eval injection, f-string, file search
- Install APK + launch once before pushing configs (so data dir exists)
- Replace eval with mapfile for device info extraction (no shell injection)
- Fix f-string syntax error in locations display
- Search both ticket-dir and config-dir for servers.json/split-tunnel.json
- Remove unused SCRIPT_DIR
- Update android-test header to document auto-AVD-creation

* Fix private server navigation issue
* deps: bump sing-box-minimal to v1.12.21-lantern on refactor (#8679)
Companion to #8678. The refactor branch still pins v1.12.19-lantern,
which is missing the non-fatal-rule-set-fetch fix (sing-box-minimal
9c79c311, shipped in v1.12.21-lantern). Without it, Android builds
from this branch hit the same bootstrap deadlock.
* Add IPC starter in android
1
* macos, ios and android cleanup
* lantern-core: wire config events through IPC (#8673)
* lantern-core: subscribe to config events over IPC (/config/events)
The refactor branch removed listenConfigEvents when it was discovered
that the in-process events.SubscribeContext no longer worked — the
extension's radiance process is where config.NewConfigEvent is emitted,
and the host's subscription never fires across processes.
Now that the companion radiance PR adds a /config/events SSE endpoint,
restore the listener using lc.client.ConfigEvents with the same
reconnect-with-backoff pattern listenAutoSelectedEvents uses. Each
frame fires notifyFlutter(EventTypeConfig, "") so Flutter's
app_event_notifier "config" case resumes driving
availableServersProvider.forceFetchAvailableServers() and
homeProvider.fetchUserDataIfNeeded() on every config change.
Also bumps the radiance pin to the commit that adds the endpoint.
Addresses the config-events half of getlantern/engineering#3182.

* feat(dev-mode): hidden 5-tap unlock on support view + expanded dev screen
Show Build number alongside Lantern version on the support view. Tapping
the Build row 5× within 3s toggles developer mode (gated to nightly/debug
builds for enabling; disabling works anywhere). The developer entry in
settings now hides unless dev mode is enabled.
Developer screen adds radiance env-var overrides (country, version,
feature overrides), a log-level dropdown, a config-fetch toggle, and
buttons to send a config request, run URL tests, show live settings/env,
and disable dev mode. Pins qpack to v0.5.1 via replace directive to match
radiance's own pin so sing-box-minimal's quic-go HTTP/3 continues to
build.

* fix: upload and notify for nightlies even when some platforms fail (#8649)
The upload-s3 and upload-release-artifacts jobs required ALL platform
builds to succeed or be skipped. When a matrix entry failed (e.g.,
Linux arm64), the entire build-linux job reported as 'failure', which
caused both upload jobs to skip entirely — even though macOS, Android,
iOS, and Linux amd64 all succeeded.
Simplify the condition: run uploads if at least one platform build
succeeded. The upload steps already handle missing artifacts gracefully
(upload_if_exists checks for file existence).
This ensures the Slack notification goes out with download links for
whatever platforms did build successfully.

PR #8655 ("Save last server location") accidentally downgraded
sing-box-minimal from v1.12.21-lantern back to v1.12.19-lantern in
go.mod during review churn. v1.12.21-lantern contains commit 9c79c311
("fix: make initial remote rule-set fetch non-fatal"), which turns the
Android bootstrap deadlock ("no available network interface" during
initial rule-set fetch) from a fatal libbox startup error into a
WARN + retry-after-start. Without it, nightly builds from main fail
to connect on any smart-routing country (Macao, Bulgaria, etc.).
Confirmed by comparing Freshdesk #172722 (broken, rule_set_remote.go:235,
v1.12.19-lantern) with #172795 (working, rule_set_remote.go:113,
v1.12.21-lantern). Same user, same device, same 9.0.25 version, same
smart-routing-bg-common-direct fetch failure — only the sing-box-minimal
version differs. The v9.0.25-beta-android tag was cut before #8655
merged, which is why Alexander's beta works while the nightly doesn't.
`go mod tidy` also dropped stale go.sum entries for superseded radiance
and lantern-box pseudo-versions and removed the unused getsentry/sentry-go
indirect (left behind after #8665).
* Makefile: fix empty common.Version on Windows CI (missing app version 400) (#8677)
* Makefile: use env-provided APP_VERSION so Windows CI populates version ldflag
common.Version in radiance was being linked as an empty string on Windows
CI builds. The `-X .../common.Version=$(APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC)` ldflag
depended on `$(shell grep ... | sed ...)` or a PowerShell fallback, and
the Windows path was producing an empty value. With common.Version empty,
backend.NewRequestWithHeaders sets X-Lantern-App-Version to "", and
lantern-cloud's /v1/config-new handler rejects the request with
400 "missing app version" — no config is returned, so the client falls
back to the embedded server list with no bandit tracks. Observed on
Freshdesk #172794 (Windows 9.0.26 nightly, radiance 400s on every retry).
Use the APP_VERSION already exported to GITHUB_ENV by build-windows.yml's
"Read app version from pubspec.yaml" step, and compute APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC
with Make built-ins ($(firstword $(subst +, ,...))) so no shell tools are
required. Drops the Windows_NT branch; local dev on Mac/Linux still uses
the grep/sed fallback (APP_VERSION ?=).
* Makefile: restore Windows local-dev fallback for APP_VERSION
The previous commit removed the Windows_NT branch under the assumption
that APP_VERSION would always come from the environment. That's true on
CI (build-windows.yml exports it to GITHUB_ENV), but local Windows
developers running `make windows-release` directly don't set the env
var, and the grep/sed fallback runs under cmd.exe where Unix-style
quoting fails silently.
Add back the Windows PowerShell branch, but only as the fallback when
APP_VERSION isn't in the environment (`?=` on both branches). CI keeps
working via the env override; local Mac/Linux uses grep/sed; local
Windows uses PowerShell Select-String. The `+`-splitting stays in
Make built-ins so it works no matter which branch produced APP_VERSION.
* Makefile: fail the build when APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC ends up empty
Adds a parse-time guard so an unresolvable version fails loudly rather
than producing a binary with empty common.Version — which is what caused
this whole bug in the first place. Addresses Copilot review feedback on
PR #8677.
$ APP_VERSION="" make
Makefile:36: *** APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC is empty; export APP_VERSION ...
* Roll in #8676: PowerShell quoting + Windows service startup log
Incorporates the non-overlapping pieces of @atavism's PR #8676 so we
can close it in favor of this PR:
- Swap the Windows APP_VERSION fallback's PowerShell invocation to
outer-single / inner-double quoting. The previous outer-double /
inner-single form gets mangled when Make expands $$ and cmd.exe
passes the resulting string to powershell, even in the local-dev
fallback path.
- Same fix for GO_VERSION's PowerShell shell-out further down in the
Makefile (separate variable, same root cause).
- Log the Windows service startup (name, version, mode) so it's
visible when triaging issues. Matches the log line from #8676.

* split tunneling: treat FFI "ok" response as success, not error (#8691)
* split tunneling: treat FFI "ok" response as success, not error
_runSplitTunnelCall was checking `result != nullptr` and treating any
non-null return as an error message. But the Go FFI
(lantern-core/ffi/ffi.go) returns C.CString("ok") on success for both
addSplitTunnelItem and removeSplitTunnelItem — a non-null C string.
As a result, every successful add/remove was being reported to the UI as
a failure with message "ok". Symptoms:
- Adding a website in split tunneling showed an unstyled default
snackbar reading "OK" (the default Material SnackBar rendering
failure.localizedErrorMessage).
- The website appeared to not be saved — but it actually was; the
provider's `reloaded` flag was never set, so the on-screen list never
re-fetched from the backend.
- Re-clicking "Add" with the same domain created a duplicate entry on
disk (visible as repeated items in split-tunnel.json) because the
provider's local "already-added" check worked against a stale copy
that had never been refreshed.
Fix: mirror the checkAPIError convention — treat literal "ok" as
success, parse JSON {"error": "..."} bodies for the error message, and
fall back to the raw string otherwise.
Reported in getlantern/engineering#3291 against Windows 9.0.29 build 481
(Freshdesk #173656).

* split tunneling: reuse _ffiOkResults for success-string check
Rather than hardcoding 'ok', use the existing _ffiOkResults set

_setupRadiance at line 201).

* split tunneling: use design-system error snackbar on add (#8692)
The local showSnackbar helper in website_domain_input was using
Material's default ScaffoldMessenger.showSnackBar(SnackBar(content:
Text(message))) — producing an unstyled grey/dark snackbar that the rest
of the app doesn't use. Every call site in this file is an error path
(empty input, invalid domain, already-added, backend failure), so route
them through context.showSnackBarError which applies the app's rounded,
floating, red-background error style.
Follow-up to #8691. Addresses the "unstyled snackbar" symptom in
getlantern/engineering#3291 issue 3 for any remaining error surface
after the FFI "ok" fix.

* fix(vpn): use SelectServer when switching servers on a live tunnel

* android: detach connect() scope so withTimeout actually unblocks the UI (#8689)
* review: detach connect() scope so timeout actually unblocks the UI
Copilot flagged on #8689 that the existing coroutineScope { ... } still
hangs in exactly the scenario this change is meant to protect against.
Structured coroutineScope cancels its children on exception but then
waits for them to complete — so when withTimeout fires, we cancel the
deferred (which the JNI call ignores, since it has no suspension
points) and then block on it finishing anyway. Net effect: the UI is
still frozen, which is the symptom we're trying to prevent.
Switch to a DETACHED CoroutineScope(SupervisorJob() + Dispatchers.IO).
Its Job is not a child of the enclosing coroutine, so cancelling it
doesn't join — the orphan coroutine keeps running the JNI call in the
background until Go returns or the process exits, but the caller is
unblocked and the runCatching.onFailure path fires the timeout error
state for the UI.

* review: add single-flight gate to prevent orphan accumulation
Copilot correctly pointed out on #8689 that the detached-scope approach
can accumulate orphan coroutines if the user retries while a previous
connect() is still stuck in JNI. Each orphan pins a Dispatchers.IO
thread; enough retries against a truly deadlocked Go side could
pressure the IO pool.
Their suggested fix (Dispatchers.IO.limitedParallelism(1)) would
serialize retries behind the orphan, turning the 2nd retry into
another 60s hang. A simple single-flight AtomicBoolean gate with fast
rejection is the cleaner mitigation:
- compareAndSet rejects concurrent attempts with IllegalStateException
(surfaces via the existing runCatching.onFailure → error state).
- The flag clears in a try/finally inside the async block, which runs
when the JNI call eventually returns — cancellation alone can't
break it out, but once Go completes the finally runs and a future
retry is admitted.
- Process death (reboot, force-stop) resets the flag naturally.

* Show the fastest location on smart location.
* android: make restartService block until restart completes (#8697)
* android: make restartService block until restart completes
Two bugs in the platformIfce restart path that together let the tunnel
wedge in Restarting forever on Android, triggering the "Error in VPN
operation" on every subsequent Connect attempt
(getlantern/engineering#3297, Freshdesk #173681).
1. restartService() used serviceScope.launch { ... } and returned
immediately. Radiance's Restart() treats the sync return as "restart
succeeded" and leaves the tunnel at status=Restarting, expecting the
platform coroutine to drive it through stopVPN → startVPN and
transition status via Mobile.* side-effects. If the service is torn
down before the coroutine completes (onDestroy, process pressure),
nothing ever transitions the tunnel out of Restarting.
Switch to runBlocking(Dispatchers.IO) so the return actually
reflects completion. c.mu is released on the Go side before
RestartService is invoked, so synchronous Mobile.* callbacks on
this thread don't deadlock.
2. stopVPNTunnel() skipped Mobile.stopVPN() when Mobile.isVPNConnected()
returned false. isVPNConnected is status == Connected — but at the
point stopVPNTunnel is called from restartService, radiance has
already set status=Restarting, so the guard always skips and the
tunnel is never actually closed.
Swap the guard for Mobile.isRadianceConnected() — i.e. only skip
when the IPC server itself isn't up. Mobile.stopVPN() is a no-op
when c.tunnel is nil on the Go side, so the original guard was
redundant even for the Connected == true case.
Evidence from Freshdesk #173681 logs for the broken path:
- 15:17:34.826 Restart → 15:17:34.828 "Tunnel restarted successfully"
(2ms total — consistent with fire-and-forget, not real teardown)
- No subsequent tunnel.init / Tunnel connection established
- 15:19:10 onDestroy logs "Skipping stopVPN — VPN tunnel was never
started" (same isVPNConnected() check)
- 15:21:48 next Connect fails within 2ms of the IPC request with
"tunnel is currently Restarting"
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* android: drop isVPNConnected guard in onDestroy too
Same shape as the restart-path fix: if c.tunnel is non-nil on the Go
side but the tunnel status is anything other than Connected (Restarting
after a failed restart, Connecting mid-startup, Error from a prior
failure), isVPNConnected() returns false and the old guard skipped
Mobile.stopVPN(). That left the radiance tunnel state dangling across
service destroy.
Observed in Freshdesk #173681: "onDestroy — radianceConnected=true
vpnConnected=false, Skipping stopVPN — VPN tunnel was never started"
while the tunnel was actually alive at status=Restarting.
Swap the second guard for an unconditional call. Mobile.stopVPN() is a
no-op when c.tunnel is nil, so the guard was always redundant — it just
happened to also hide the non-Connected-but-non-nil case that's
load-bearing during restart.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* android: verify restart postcondition before returning to Go
launchVPN wraps its body in runCatching { ... }.onFailure { ... } and
returns normally regardless of whether Mobile.startVPN() threw — so a
nil return from startVPN() does not mean the restart succeeded. Without
a postcondition check, restartService would log "completed" and return
to radiance as if everything worked, even though the tunnel is still
stuck in Restarting, which defeats the whole point of making this
function block.
Check Mobile.isVPNConnected() at the end of the runBlocking block and
throw IllegalStateException if false. The exception propagates through
runBlocking → restartService → radiance's platformIfce.RestartService()
as a non-nil error, so Restart() hits the ErrorStatus branch and the
caller sees the failure.

The PacketTunnelExtension hosts the IPC server, so cancelTunnelWithError

* main: don't block first paint on Updater.init() (#8699)
* main: don't block first paint on Updater.init()
Moving Updater.init() off the critical path to runApp. Investigating a
one-shot black-screen-on-startup report on a local macOS dev build
(9.0.29 build 487): flutter.log stopped at the last pre-runApp log line
with no Dart exception and no crash, while the Go side kept running
normally. The only awaited call between that last log and runApp is
Updater.init().
Inside init(), the actual update check is already deferred 45 s via
Future.delayed + unawaited. But setFeedURL and setScheduledCheckInterval
are awaited — both bridge into Sparkle via the auto_updater Flutter
plugin, and both can stall on first launch: feed URL resolution,
keychain access, or a previous launch's background worker still holding
a lock. Any of those becomes a main-isolate hang that prevents runApp,
which exactly matches the observed symptom.
Fix: drop the await so Updater.init() runs concurrently with the rest
of startup. All errors are already handled inside init() itself, so
unawaited is safe.

* review: guard sl<Updater>() lookup against failed service injection
Copilot flagged that if injectServices() throws above (caught at
main.dart:45), Updater is never registered (it's registered at
injection_container.dart:40, after storage init), and sl<Updater>()
throws synchronously. unawaited() doesn't help — the throw happens
before the Future is constructed, so it propagates out of main and
prevents runApp.
Wrap the call in try/catch + sl.isRegistered<Updater>() so any failure
to look up or start Updater.init logs and continues to runApp.

* lantern-core: dispatch ConnectVPN/StartVPN to SelectServer on live tunnel (#8702)
* lantern-core: dispatch ConnectVPN to SelectServer on live tunnel
When the Flutter UI triggers an auto-select on a live tunnel — most
visibly Jigar's rewrite of onSmartLocation (server_selection.dart), which
routes "switch back to Smart" through startVPN(force: true) → Dart
lantern.startVPN() → ffi.go:startVPN → c.ConnectVPN("") — radiance's
/vpn/connect endpoint rejects the request with ErrTunnelAlreadyConnected
(radiance/vpn/vpn.go:126 in VPNClient.Connect). The error is returned to
the Dart UI as a snackbar, the tunnel stays pinned to the previously
selected manual server, and lantern.log is silent because neither
LocalBackend.ConnectVPN nor VPNClient.Connect slog the ErrTunnelAlready
Connected path.
Observed on 9.0.30 beta (internal tester, Freshdesk #173763, build from
commit 405468954 which includes Jigar's 289507280). After manually
picking Bogotá, clicking "Smart" at the top of the server-selection
screen surfaces the snackbar and the tunnel keeps routing traffic
through the Bogotá samizdat outbound.
Fix: when Status() == Connected, LanternCore.ConnectVPN dispatches the
request to /server/selected (the live-tunnel outbound swap) instead of
/vpn/connect. Empty tag normalizes to vpn.AutoSelectTag — Dart sends ""
for Smart, radiance recognizes only the literal "auto" and otherwise
falls into the manual-outbound branch of SelectServer, stranding Clash
in manual mode with an empty selector. The mapping is centralized in a
small normalizeAutoTag helper used by both ConnectVPN and SelectServer.
This puts the same dispatch logic that lives in ffi.go:connectToServer
onto every caller of LanternCore.ConnectVPN — including ffi.go:startVPN
(which Jigar's rewrite now funnels through) and any future FFI/mobile
entry point.
getlantern/engineering#3291 issue 3. Supersedes earlier work on
fisk/connect-dispatch-select-when-connected (485bf5a00), which was
scoped to this same dispatch but predated the current refactor branch.

* vpn_tunnel: dispatch StartVPN to SelectServer on live tunnel (mobile path)
Mobile.StartVPN (the gomobile entry point for Android MainActivity and
iOS VPNManager) routes through vpn_tunnel.StartVPN(client), which calls
client.ConnectVPN(ctx, vpn.AutoSelectTag) directly — bypassing
lanterncore.Core. Jigar's onSmartLocation rewrite dispatches "switch
back to Smart" through startVPN(force: true), which on Android/iOS
lands here. Same ErrTunnelAlreadyConnected bug as the FFI path fixed in
the previous commit.
Mirror the VPNStatus dispatch pattern garmr already added to
vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer in 405468954: when Status() == Connected,
swap outbound via /server/selected; otherwise fall through to the
existing /vpn/connect start.
Together with the LanternCore.ConnectVPN dispatch, this closes the
Smart-from-connected bug on every platform (Windows FFI, Android/iOS
gomobile).

* ffi: drop now-redundant VPNStatus dispatch in connectToServer
LanternCore.ConnectVPN already routes to /server/selected when the
tunnel is live (added earlier in this PR), so ffi.go:connectToServer's
own VPNStatus check is duplicate work. Collapse to a single c.ConnectVPN
call — both the live-tunnel-swap and fresh-connect paths flow through
the dispatch one layer down.
Behavior unchanged. The "start service failed" error wrapper is kept
for Dart-side snackbar stability.

* lantern-core: collapse dispatch to a single implementation in vpn_tunnel
Three functions had independent VPNStatus → SelectServer-vs-ConnectVPN
dispatches after the earlier commits: LanternCore.ConnectVPN,
vpn_tunnel.StartVPN (both added in this PR), and vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer
(pre-existing from 405468954). Consolidate so vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer
is the authoritative dispatch and the other two delegate.
- LanternCore.ConnectVPN → vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer(lc.client, tag)
- vpn_tunnel.StartVPN → ConnectToServer(client, vpn.AutoSelectTag)
LanternCore.SelectServer keeps its own empty-tag normalization since its
scope is the one-shot SelectServer IPC, not the dispatch.

Patrick's radiance fac9089 ("fix(vpn): treat the empty string as

72a6c6282. Radiance normalizes tag == "" → AutoSelectTag on both
ConnectVPN and SelectServer, so the client-side normalizations we
added earlier (normalizeAutoTag helper in core.go, `if tag == ""` in
vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer) are redundant — radiance handles the Dart
"" convention uniformly.
Remove:
- LanternCore.normalizeAutoTag helper + its use in SelectServer
- `if tag == "" { tag = vpn.AutoSelectTag }` branch in
vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer
- lantern-core/core_test.go (only tested the removed helper)

* ffi + lantern-core: drop non-Linux preflight; bound IPC calls with per-operation timeouts (#8707)
* ffi: skip the daemon-reachability preflight on Windows / macOS / mobile
The 300 ms preflight in lantern-core/core.go's CheckDaemonReachable
was originally tuned for the Linux flow (PR #8494 by atavism, commit
bf054f4ea), where the failure path falls back to `systemctl is-active
lanternd.service` for a rich diagnostic error. The 300 ms cap made
sense as "fast probe → systemd-rich-error", with the systemd query
adding the actual user-facing context.
Subsequent refactors (commit bd89bea7e Apr 7, then PR #8578 commit
4d4e06d9d Apr 16) generalized that preflight to all platforms but
the systemd fallback only survived in ffi_linux.go. On Windows /
macOS / mobile, ffi_nonlinux.go ended up running the same 300 ms
probe with no fallback — just an artificial guillotine in front of
ConnectVPN, which has its own "lanternd not reachable" error path
with equivalent precision.
Cold-start IPC on Windows regularly exceeds 300 ms (named-pipe dial
+ winio impersonation token dance + H2c connection preface +
goroutine scheduling on a 96-second-idle daemon), so the first VPN
toggle after launch reliably trips the timeout and shows the user a
"lanternd not reachable" error. Clicking again 10 seconds later
silently succeeds. Reproduced on the same Windows machine across
9.0.29 (Freshdesk #173696) and 9.0.30 (#173932).
Make the preflight a no-op on non-Linux. Linux keeps the original
fast-probe-then-systemdDiag flow unchanged. If we add Windows
(`sc query LanternSvc`) or macOS (`launchctl list`) diagnostics
later, restore the preflight and call them from here.
See getlantern/engineering#3382 for the full archaeology + design
discussion.

* ffi + lantern-core: bound IPC calls with per-operation timeouts
Companion to dropping the non-Linux daemon-reachability preflight in this
same PR. The preflight (ffi_nonlinux.go's `checkDaemonReachable`) was
introduced in commit bd89bea7e along with the *removal* of per-call
timeouts that used to live on the FFI layer:
- ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second)
- if err := c.Client().DisconnectVPN(ctx); err != nil { ... }
+ if err := c.DisconnectVPN(); err != nil { ... }
After that change, the only IPC call with any deadline at all was the
300 ms preflight. Every other operation flowed lc.ctx (
context.WithCancel(context.Background())) straight through, meaning a
hung lanternd would freeze the UI indefinitely. Dropping the preflight
without restoring per-call timeouts removes the only line of defense.
Restore them at the LanternCore layer where they belong, with values
sized for the inherent work each operation does (state changes can run
into multi-second territory; status queries should be near-instant):
ipcConnectTimeout = 60 * time.Second // ConnectVPN
ipcStateChangeTimeout = 30 * time.Second // SelectServer, DisconnectVPN
ipcStatusTimeout = 10 * time.Second // VPNStatus, IsVPNRunning
These bound the worst case (hung daemon → user sees a clear error within
a minute, no indefinite spinner) without firing during normal slow paths.
The dialer's 10 s connect timeout (radiance/ipc/conn_windows.go) already
covers the lanternd-crashed case; these guard the lanternd-hung case.
vpn_tunnel.{StartVPN, StopVPN, ConnectToServer} take the ctx through
their signatures instead of building their own context.Background()
internally, so callers stay in charge of their own deadlines. mobile/
mobile.go updated to set 60 s / 30 s / 60 s contexts on its three
gomobile entry points.
CheckDaemonReachable's 300 ms timeout is kept untouched — Linux still
calls it from ffi_linux.go for the systemctl is-active fallback that's
the whole point of the fast probe.

* bump radiance
* lantern-core: fix empty Windows split-tunnel apps list + UI-process logging (#8709)
Two narrow fixes that together resolve Freshdesk #173774 / #173778 /
#173826 (Derek's "Failed to fetch installed apps" empty list on Windows
split tunneling). Split out from #8706 so they can land independently
of the broader app-discovery rework that PR also contained.
1. **GetEnabledApps returns []string{} instead of nil.**
When no apps are split-tunneled, the previous code returned nil,
which json.Marshal serialized as "null". Dart's jsonDecode("null")
returns null; the receiving code does `as List`, which throws and
the UI shows "Failed to fetch installed apps". Initializing as an
empty slice serializes to "[]" — Dart parses that as an empty list,
no exception, no error UI. THIS is the actual root cause of the
empty-list reports we've been chasing; the apps-discovery scanner
work was investigating a different (also-real but secondary) issue.
2. **UI-process slog wired up via common.Init.**
On the refactor branch, the UI process never called common.Init.
slog wrote to stderr (= nowhere on a GUI host), settings were
uninitialized, no lantern.log was produced outside the daemon.
Patrick caught this — it was a one-line miss in the refactor.
Platform-aware so we don't double-init on platforms where the
backend embeds in-process:
- windows/linux: full common.Init (separate UI + daemon procs)
- darwin/ios: setupAppLogging into a distinct lantern-app.log
so the main-app slog doesn't race the tunnel
extension's lantern.log on lumberjack rotation
- android: Mobile.SetupRadiance already ran common.Init
upstream — fall through
3. **Auto-attach UI-process *.log to ReportIssue (windows/linux only).**
Without it the daemon's archive glob only sees the daemon's logDir;
UI-side lantern.log + flutter.log never reach the issue bundle. The
daemon runs as SYSTEM on Windows; we keep UI logDir at
%PUBLIC%\Lantern\logs so SYSTEM can read it.
The broader Windows app-discovery work from #8706 (App Paths scan, Run
keys, Squirrel pattern, isAppPathsNoise heuristic filters) is being
held in a separate PR for independent review.

* android: init Go logging early so lantern-core/radiance debug logs aren't lost (#8711)
On Android the entire app runs in a single process, so once common.Init
runs slog.SetDefault covers everything. But common.Init only runs deep
inside SetupRadiance / StartIPCServer, which LanternVpnService launches
asynchronously from an intent fired by MainActivity.startLanternService.
Any slog call emitted in the gap — including any of the wide MethodHandler
surface that Flutter can reach before the VPN service is up — falls
through to the stdlib default (text → stderr → logcat at INFO), so DEBUG
logs vanish and the format diverges from what we use everywhere else.
Add Mobile.InitLogging as a thin gomobile-exposed wrapper around
common.Init, and call it from MainActivity.configureFlutterEngine before
startLanternService. common.Init is guarded by an atomic.Bool, so the
later call from backend.NewLocalBackend is a no-op.
Mirrors PR #8709 (Windows). Reported on Slack by Jigar.

* FetchUserData at startup.
* Map the correct type to avoid a crash.
* bump radiance to main post refactor merge
PR getlantern/radiance#370 merged the long-lived refactor branch into
radiance main. This branch was previously pinned at the refactor tip
(5643163d8d70); repinning to main (e312570c7aea) so all downstream
work consumes the merged code.
Transitive: getlantern/kindling auto-bumps to 6143132aaf40 to match
the kindling.TransportName + domainfront API radiance now uses.

Simplify the condition: run uploads if at least one platform build succeeded. The upload steps already handle missing artifacts gracefully (upload_if_exists checks for file existence).

When a GC cycle runs during the copy, bulkBarrierPreWrite panics because the destination isn't GC-tracked. Returning string avoids this — gomobile marshals strings via C heap allocation rather than leaving them as Go slice headers. See getlantern/engineering#3175 for the full crash analysis (from Freshdesk #172640 — Derek reporting "Lantern Crash" on macOS 26.3.1). Go changes: AvailableFeatures, UserData, FetchUserData, GetAvailableServers, GetSelectedServerJSON, OAuthLoginCallback, AcknowledgeGooglePurchase, AcknowledgeApplePurchase, Login, Logout, DeleteAccount Swift changes (macos + ios): preserve Flutter contract by converting the string back to Data for methods whose Dart side reads `bytes` via utf8.decode (getUserData, fetchUserData, oauthLoginCallback, login, logout, deleteAccount, acknowledgeInAppPurchase).

The generated Android binding will therefore return String where it used to return ByteArray. For each affected method, match what the iOS handler does so the Flutter platform-channel contract stays stable: * Methods whose Dart callers expect bytes (Uint8List) — login, logout, deleteAccount, userData, fetchUserData, oauthLoginCallback, acknowledgeGooglePurchase — convert the String result via `.toByteArray(Charsets.UTF_8)` before calling success() (mirrors Swift's `.data(using: .utf8)`). * Methods whose Dart callers expect a String — availableFeatures, getAvailableServers, getSelectedServerJSON — drop the `String(byteArray)` constructor and use the return value directly, with the same "{}" / "[]" empty-default that iOS uses.

Without it, nightly builds from main fail to connect on any smart-routing country (Macao, Bulgaria, etc.). Confirmed by comparing Freshdesk #172722 (broken, rule_set_remote.go:235, v1.12.19-lantern) with #172795 (working, rule_set_remote.go:113, v1.12.21-lantern). Same user, same device, same 9.0.25 version, same smart-routing-bg-common-direct fetch failure — only the sing-box-minimal version differs. The v9.0.25-beta-android tag was cut before #8655 merged, which is why Alexander's beta works while the nightly doesn't. `go mod tidy` also dropped stale go.sum entries for superseded radiance and lantern-box pseudo-versions and removed the unused getsentry/sentry-go indirect (left behind after #8665). * Makefile: fix empty common.Version on Windows CI (missing app version 400) (#8677) * Makefile: use env-provided APP_VERSION so Windows CI populates version ldflag common.Version in radiance was being linked as an empty string on Windows CI builds. The `-X .../common.Version=$(APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC)` ldflag depended on `$(shell grep ... | sed ...)` or a PowerShell fallback, and the Windows path was producing an empty value. With common.Version empty, backend.NewRequestWithHeaders sets X-Lantern-App-Version to "", and lantern-cloud's /v1/config-new handler rejects the request with 400 "missing app version" — no config is returned, so the client falls back to the embedded server list with no bandit tracks. Observed on Freshdesk #172794 (Windows 9.0.26 nightly, radiance 400s on every retry). Use the APP_VERSION already exported to GITHUB_ENV by build-windows.yml's "Read app version from pubspec.yaml" step, and compute APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC with Make built-ins ($(firstword $(subst +, ,...))) so no shell tools are required. Drops the Windows_NT branch; local dev on Mac/Linux still uses the grep/sed fallback (APP_VERSION ?=). * Makefile: restore Windows local-dev fallback for APP_VERSION The previous commit removed the Windows_NT branch under the assumption that APP_VERSION would always come from the environment. That's true on CI (build-windows.yml exports it to GITHUB_ENV), but local Windows developers running `make windows-release` directly don't set the env var, and the grep/sed fallback runs under cmd.exe where Unix-style quoting fails silently. Add back the Windows PowerShell branch, but only as the fallback when APP_VERSION isn't in the environment (`?=` on both branches). CI keeps working via the env override; local Mac/Linux uses grep/sed; local Windows uses PowerShell Select-String. The `+`-splitting stays in Make built-ins so it works no matter which branch produced APP_VERSION. * Makefile: fail the build when APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC ends up empty Adds a parse-time guard so an unresolvable version fails loudly rather than producing a binary with empty common.Version — which is what caused this whole bug in the first place. Addresses Copilot review feedback on PR #8677. $ APP_VERSION="" make Makefile:36: *** APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC is empty; export APP_VERSION ... * Roll in #8676: PowerShell quoting + Windows service startup log Incorporates the non-overlapping pieces of @atavism's PR #8676 so we can close it in favor of this PR: - Swap the Windows APP_VERSION fallback's PowerShell invocation to outer-single / inner-double quoting. The previous outer-double / inner-single form gets mangled when Make expands $$ and cmd.exe passes the resulting string to powershell, even in the local-dev fallback path. - Same fix for GO_VERSION's PowerShell shell-out further down in the Makefile (separate variable, same root cause). - Log the Windows service startup (name, version, mode) so it's visible when triaging issues.

But the Go FFI (lantern-core/ffi/ffi.go) returns C.CString("ok") on success for both addSplitTunnelItem and removeSplitTunnelItem — a non-null C string. As a result, every successful add/remove was being reported to the UI as a failure with message "ok". Symptoms: - Adding a website in split tunneling showed an unstyled default snackbar reading "OK" (the default Material SnackBar rendering failure.localizedErrorMessage). - The website appeared to not be saved — but it actually was; the provider's `reloaded` flag was never set, so the on-screen list never re-fetched from the backend. - Re-clicking "Add" with the same domain created a duplicate entry on disk (visible as repeated items in split-tunnel.json) because the provider's local "already-added" check worked against a stale copy that had never been refreshed. Fix: mirror the checkAPIError convention — treat literal "ok" as success, parse JSON {"error": "..."} bodies for the error message, and fall back to the raw string otherwise.

Check VPNStatus first and route to SelectServer when Connected, falling back to ConnectVPN otherwise. * android: detach connect() scope so withTimeout actually unblocks the UI (#8689) * review: detach connect() scope so timeout actually unblocks the UI Copilot flagged on #8689 that the existing coroutineScope { ... } still hangs in exactly the scenario this change is meant to protect against. Structured coroutineScope cancels its children on exception but then waits for them to complete — so when withTimeout fires, we cancel the deferred (which the JNI call ignores, since it has no suspension points) and then block on it finishing anyway. Net effect: the UI is still frozen, which is the symptom we're trying to prevent. Switch to a DETACHED CoroutineScope(SupervisorJob() + Dispatchers.IO). Its Job is not a child of the enclosing coroutine, so cancelling it doesn't join — the orphan coroutine keeps running the JNI call in the background until Go returns or the process exits, but the caller is unblocked and the runCatching.onFailure path fires the timeout error state for the UI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * review: add single-flight gate to prevent orphan accumulation Copilot correctly pointed out on #8689 that the detached-scope approach can accumulate orphan coroutines if the user retries while a previous connect() is still stuck in JNI. Each orphan pins a Dispatchers.IO thread; enough retries against a truly deadlocked Go side could pressure the IO pool. Their suggested fix (Dispatchers.IO.limitedParallelism(1)) would serialize retries behind the orphan, turning the 2nd retry into another 60s hang. A simple single-flight AtomicBoolean gate with fast rejection is the cleaner mitigation: - compareAndSet rejects concurrent attempts with IllegalStateException (surfaces via the existing runCatching.onFailure → error state). - The flag clears in a try/finally inside the async block, which runs when the JNI call eventually returns — cancellation alone can't break it out, but once Go completes the finally runs and a future retry is admitted. - Process death (reboot, force-stop) resets the flag naturally.

Radiance's Restart() treats the sync return as "restart succeeded" and leaves the tunnel at status=Restarting, expecting the platform coroutine to drive it through stopVPN → startVPN and transition status via Mobile.* side-effects. If the service is torn down before the coroutine completes (onDestroy, process pressure), nothing ever transitions the tunnel out of Restarting. Switch to runBlocking(Dispatchers.IO) so the return actually reflects completion. c.mu is released on the Go side before RestartService is invoked, so synchronous Mobile.* callbacks on this thread don't deadlock. 2. stopVPNTunnel() skipped Mobile.stopVPN() when Mobile.isVPNConnected() returned false. isVPNConnected is status == Connected — but at the point stopVPNTunnel is called from restartService, radiance has already set status=Restarting, so the guard always skips and the tunnel is never actually closed. Swap the guard for Mobile.isRadianceConnected() — i.e. only skip when the IPC server itself isn't up. Mobile.stopVPN() is a no-op when c.tunnel is nil on the Go side, so the original guard was redundant even for the Connected == true case. Evidence from Freshdesk #173681 logs for the broken path: - 15:17:34.826 Restart → 15:17:34.828 "Tunnel restarted successfully" (2ms total — consistent with fire-and-forget, not real teardown) - No subsequent tunnel.init / Tunnel connection established - 15:19:10 onDestroy logs "Skipping stopVPN — VPN tunnel was never started" (same isVPNConnected() check) - 15:21:48 next Connect fails within 2ms of the IPC request with "tunnel is currently Restarting" Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * android: drop isVPNConnected guard in onDestroy too Same shape as the restart-path fix: if c.tunnel is non-nil on the Go side but the tunnel status is anything other than Connected (Restarting after a failed restart, Connecting mid-startup, Error from a prior failure), isVPNConnected() returns false and the old guard skipped Mobile.stopVPN(). That left the radiance tunnel state dangling across service destroy. Observed in Freshdesk #173681: "onDestroy — radianceConnected=true vpnConnected=false, Skipping stopVPN — VPN tunnel was never started" while the tunnel was actually alive at status=Restarting. Swap the second guard for an unconditional call. Mobile.stopVPN() is a no-op when c.tunnel is nil, so the guard was always redundant — it just happened to also hide the non-Connected-but-non-nil case that's load-bearing during restart. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * android: verify restart postcondition before returning to Go launchVPN wraps its body in runCatching { ... }.onFailure { ... } and returns normally regardless of whether Mobile.startVPN() threw — so a nil return from startVPN() does not mean the restart succeeded. Without a postcondition check, restartService would log "completed" and return to radiance as if everything worked, even though the tunnel is still stuck in Restarting, which defeats the whole point of making this function block. Check Mobile.isVPNConnected() at the end of the runBlocking block and throw IllegalStateException if false. The exception propagates through runBlocking → restartService → radiance's platformIfce.RestartService() as a non-nil error, so Restart() hits the ErrorStatus branch and the caller sees the failure.

The only awaited call between that last log and runApp is Updater.init(). Inside init(), the actual update check is already deferred 45 s via Future.delayed + unawaited. But setFeedURL and setScheduledCheckInterval are awaited — both bridge into Sparkle via the auto_updater Flutter plugin, and both can stall on first launch: feed URL resolution, keychain access, or a previous launch's background worker still holding a lock. Any of those becomes a main-isolate hang that prevents runApp, which exactly matches the observed symptom. Fix: drop the await so Updater.init() runs concurrently with the rest of startup. All errors are already handled inside init() itself, so unawaited is safe. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * review: guard sl<Updater>() lookup against failed service injection Copilot flagged that if injectServices() throws above (caught at main.dart:45), Updater is never registered (it's registered at injection_container.dart:40, after storage init), and sl<Updater>() throws synchronously. unawaited() doesn't help — the throw happens before the Future is constructed, so it propagates out of main and prevents runApp. Wrap the call in try/catch + sl.isRegistered<Updater>() so any failure to look up or start Updater.init logs and continues to runApp. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> --------- Co-authored-by: Adam Fisk <afisk@mini.local> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * feat(logs): stream diagnostic logs via ipc TailLogs on desktop Wires the FFI path to radiance's ipc.Client.TailLogs and merges in-app flutter.log records so the diagnostic logs view shows both sources.

The error is returned to the Dart UI as a snackbar, the tunnel stays pinned to the previously selected manual server, and lantern.log is silent because neither LocalBackend.ConnectVPN nor VPNClient.Connect slog the ErrTunnelAlready Connected path. Observed on 9.0.30 beta (internal tester, Freshdesk #173763, build from commit 405468954 which includes Jigar's 289507280). After manually picking Bogotá, clicking "Smart" at the top of the server-selection screen surfaces the snackbar and the tunnel keeps routing traffic through the Bogotá samizdat outbound. Fix: when Status() == Connected, LanternCore.ConnectVPN dispatches the request to /server/selected (the live-tunnel outbound swap) instead of /vpn/connect. Empty tag normalizes to vpn.AutoSelectTag — Dart sends "" for Smart, radiance recognizes only the literal "auto" and otherwise falls into the manual-outbound branch of SelectServer, stranding Clash in manual mode with an empty selector. The mapping is centralized in a small normalizeAutoTag helper used by both ConnectVPN and SelectServer. This puts the same dispatch logic that lives in ffi.go:connectToServer onto every caller of LanternCore.ConnectVPN — including ffi.go:startVPN (which Jigar's rewrite now funnels through) and any future FFI/mobile entry point. getlantern/engineering#3291 issue 3. Supersedes earlier work on fisk/connect-dispatch-select-when-connected (485bf5a00), which was scoped to this same dispatch but predated the current refactor branch. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * vpn_tunnel: dispatch StartVPN to SelectServer on live tunnel (mobile path) Mobile.StartVPN (the gomobile entry point for Android MainActivity and iOS VPNManager) routes through vpn_tunnel.StartVPN(client), which calls client.ConnectVPN(ctx, vpn.AutoSelectTag) directly — bypassing lanterncore.Core. Jigar's onSmartLocation rewrite dispatches "switch back to Smart" through startVPN(force: true), which on Android/iOS lands here. Same ErrTunnelAlreadyConnected bug as the FFI path fixed in the previous commit. Mirror the VPNStatus dispatch pattern garmr already added to vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer in 405468954: when Status() == Connected, swap outbound via /server/selected; otherwise fall through to the existing /vpn/connect start.

Collapse to a single c.ConnectVPN call — both the live-tunnel-swap and fresh-connect paths flow through the dispatch one layer down. Behavior unchanged.

Consolidate so vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer is the authoritative dispatch and the other two delegate. - LanternCore.ConnectVPN → vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer(lc.client, tag) - vpn_tunnel.StartVPN → ConnectToServer(client, vpn.AutoSelectTag) LanternCore.SelectServer keeps its own empty-tag normalization since its scope is the one-shot SelectServer IPC, not the dispatch.

The 300 ms cap made sense as "fast probe → systemd-rich-error", with the systemd query adding the actual user-facing context. Subsequent refactors (commit bd89bea7e Apr 7, then PR #8578 commit 4d4e06d9d Apr 16) generalized that preflight to all platforms but the systemd fallback only survived in ffi_linux.go. On Windows / macOS / mobile, ffi_nonlinux.go ended up running the same 300 ms probe with no fallback — just an artificial guillotine in front of ConnectVPN, which has its own "lanternd not reachable" error path with equivalent precision. Cold-start IPC on Windows regularly exceeds 300 ms (named-pipe dial + winio impersonation token dance + H2c connection preface + goroutine scheduling on a 96-second-idle daemon), so the first VPN toggle after launch reliably trips the timeout and shows the user a "lanternd not reachable" error. Clicking again 10 seconds later silently succeeds. Reproduced on the same Windows machine across 9.0.29 (Freshdesk #173696) and 9.0.30 (#173932). Make the preflight a no-op on non-Linux. Linux keeps the original fast-probe-then-systemdDiag flow unchanged. If we add Windows (`sc query LanternSvc`) or macOS (`launchctl list`) diagnostics later, restore the preflight and call them from here. See getlantern/engineering#3382 for the full archaeology + design discussion. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ffi + lantern-core: bound IPC calls with per-operation timeouts Companion to dropping the non-Linux daemon-reachability preflight in this same PR. The preflight (ffi_nonlinux.go's `checkDaemonReachable`) was introduced in commit bd89bea7e along with the *removal* of per-call timeouts that used to live on the FFI layer: - ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second) - if err := c.Client().DisconnectVPN(ctx); err != nil { ... } + if err := c.DisconnectVPN(); err != nil { ... } After that change, the only IPC call with any deadline at all was the 300 ms preflight. Every other operation flowed lc.ctx ( context.WithCancel(context.Background())) straight through, meaning a hung lanternd would freeze the UI indefinitely. Dropping the preflight without restoring per-call timeouts removes the only line of defense. Restore them at the LanternCore layer where they belong, with values sized for the inherent work each operation does (state changes can run into multi-second territory; status queries should be near-instant): ipcConnectTimeout = 60 * time.Second // ConnectVPN ipcStateChangeTimeout = 30 * time.Second // SelectServer, DisconnectVPN ipcStatusTimeout = 10 * time.Second // VPNStatus, IsVPNRunning These bound the worst case (hung daemon → user sees a clear error within a minute, no indefinite spinner) without firing during normal slow paths. The dialer's 10 s connect timeout (radiance/ipc/conn_windows.go) already covers the lanternd-crashed case; these guard the lanternd-hung case. vpn_tunnel.{StartVPN, StopVPN, ConnectToServer} take the ctx through their signatures instead of building their own context.Background() internally, so callers stay in charge of their own deadlines. mobile/ mobile.go updated to set 60 s / 30 s / 60 s contexts on its three gomobile entry points. CheckDaemonReachable's 300 ms timeout is kept untouched — Linux still calls it from ffi_linux.go for the systemctl is-active fallback that's the whole point of the fast probe.

The base bug was GetEnabledApps returning nil-as-"null" instead of empty-as-"[]" (fixed in the other branch); this PR is the broader investigation that grew alongside the diagnosis but stands on its own merits. What's in here: - **HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths scanner.** Apps that register here so they're runnable via Win+R / shellexecute. Catches browsers, IDEs, Office, and most third-party apps that don't go through Squirrel / Start Menu. - **HKLM and HKCU \Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run.** Squirrel-managed apps (Slack, Discord, VS Code Insiders) register for auto-start with command lines pointing at Update.exe --processStart. Same parser as Start Menu .lnk targets, including --processStart. - **%LOCALAPPDATA%\<App>\Update.exe pattern.** Belt-and-suspenders for Squirrel installs that don't show in the registry yet but exist on disk under the well-known layout. - **isAppPathsNoise filter.** App Paths is heavily polluted by Microsoft-bundled tooling (IE relics, Office helpers, vestigial Mail + tablet apps) and UWP package plumbing (winget, WindowsPackageManagerServer). Drops entries under known system paths, .NET helper assemblies, anything under \Microsoft Office\ except primary product exes, helper-named basenames (substring match: "browsersupport", "lastpassexporter", "updater", "helper", "diagnostic", "diagcmd"), and basenames suffixed with the generic helper words (update, service, agent, sync, broker). - **ParentKeyName filter removal in isNonUserFacingUninstallEntry.** ParentKeyName != "" was introduced in #8641 and was over-aggressive — plenty of legitimate end-user apps set it (Squirrel installs, winget packages, MSI bundle children). SystemComponent=1 and NoDisplay=1 are the documented signals; those stay. Drops the now-unused parentKeyName field on uninstallEntryMetadata too. - **COM-failure logs in Start Menu scanner promoted Debug → Warn** (CoInitializeEx, WScript.Shell CreateObject, QueryInterface). These paths previously failed silently; now an empty result tells us which call broke. - **Per-filter scan-summary tallies** at the end of each scanner with scanned/kept/per-drop-reason counts and a sample of kept apps for triage. Sample paths are redacted to filepath.Base to avoid including user PII (full Windows paths typically embed the username) in scan logs that get bundled into Report Issue tickets. - **Hot-path constant data hoisted to package scope.** isAppPathsNoise's systemPaths / primaryOfficeExes / helperHints / suffix lists used to be reallocated on every call (runs hundreds- to-thousands of times per scan). Now package-level vars. - **+152 lines of test coverage** for the new heuristics in apps_windows_test.go. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * lantern-core: fix empty Windows split-tunnel apps list + UI-process logging (#8709) Two narrow fixes that together resolve Freshdesk #173774 / #173778 / #173826 (Derek's "Failed to fetch installed apps" empty list on Windows split tunneling). Split out from #8706 so they can land independently of the broader app-discovery rework that PR also contained. 1. **GetEnabledApps returns []string{} instead of nil.** When no apps are split-tunneled, the previous code returned nil, which json.Marshal serialized as "null". Dart's jsonDecode("null") returns null; the receiving code does `as List`, which throws and the UI shows "Failed to fetch installed apps". Initializing as an empty slice serializes to "[]" — Dart parses that as an empty list, no exception, no error UI. THIS is the actual root cause of the empty-list reports we've been chasing; the apps-discovery scanner work was investigating a different (also-real but secondary) issue. 2. **UI-process slog wired up via common.Init.** On the refactor branch, the UI process never called common.Init. slog wrote to stderr (= nowhere on a GUI host), settings were uninitialized, no lantern.log was produced outside the daemon. Patrick caught this — it was a one-line miss in the refactor. Platform-aware so we don't double-init on platforms where the backend embeds in-process: - windows/linux: full common.Init (separate UI + daemon procs) - darwin/ios: setupAppLogging into a distinct lantern-app.log so the main-app slog doesn't race the tunnel extension's lantern.log on lumberjack rotation - android: Mobile.SetupRadiance already ran common.Init upstream — fall through 3. **Auto-attach UI-process *.log to ReportIssue (windows/linux only).** Without it the daemon's archive glob only sees the daemon's logDir; UI-side lantern.log + flutter.log never reach the issue bundle. The daemon runs as SYSTEM on Windows; we keep UI logDir at %PUBLIC%\Lantern\logs so SYSTEM can read it. The broader Windows app-discovery work from #8706 (App Paths scan, Run keys, Squirrel pattern, isAppPathsNoise heuristic filters) is being held in a separate PR for independent review. Co-authored-by: Adam Fisk <afisk@mini.local> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * android: init Go logging early so lantern-core/radiance debug logs aren't lost (#8711) On Android the entire app runs in a single process, so once common.Init runs slog.SetDefault covers everything. But common.Init only runs deep inside SetupRadiance / StartIPCServer, which LanternVpnService launches asynchronously from an intent fired by MainActivity.startLanternService. Any slog call emitted in the gap — including any of the wide MethodHandler surface that Flutter can reach before the VPN service is up — falls through to the stdlib default (text → stderr → logcat at INFO), so DEBUG logs vanish and the format diverges from what we use everywhere else. Add Mobile.InitLogging as a thin gomobile-exposed wrapper around common.Init, and call it from MainActivity.configureFlutterEngine before startLanternService. common.Init is guarded by an atomic.Bool, so the later call from backend.NewLocalBackend is a no-op.

When a matrix entry failed (e.g., Linux arm64), the entire build-linux job reported as 'failure', which caused both upload jobs to skip entirely — even though macOS, Android, iOS, and Linux amd64 all succeeded. Simplify the condition: run uploads if at least one platform build succeeded. The upload steps already handle missing artifacts gracefully (upload_if_exists checks for file existence). This ensures the Slack notification goes out with download links for whatever platforms did build successfully.

When a GC cycle runs during the copy, bulkBarrierPreWrite panics because the destination isn't GC-tracked. Returning string avoids this — gomobile marshals strings via C heap allocation rather than leaving them as Go slice headers. See getlantern/engineering#3175 for the full crash analysis (from Freshdesk #172640 — Derek reporting "Lantern Crash" on macOS 26.3.1). Go changes: AvailableFeatures, UserData, FetchUserData, GetAvailableServers, GetSelectedServerJSON, OAuthLoginCallback, AcknowledgeGooglePurchase, AcknowledgeApplePurchase, Login, Logout, DeleteAccount Swift changes (macos + ios): preserve Flutter contract by converting the string back to Data for methods whose Dart side reads `bytes` via utf8.decode (getUserData, fetchUserData, oauthLoginCallback, login, logout, deleteAccount, acknowledgeInAppPurchase). For methods whose Dart side expects String (featureFlags, getLanternAvailableServers, getSelectedServerJSON), just pass the gomobile string directly. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> * android: update MethodHandler for string-returning gomobile bindings The gomobile-exported funcs in lantern-core/mobile/mobile.go now return string instead of []byte. The generated Android binding will therefore return String where it used to return ByteArray. For each affected method, match what the iOS handler does so the Flutter platform-channel contract stays stable: * Methods whose Dart callers expect bytes (Uint8List) — login, logout, deleteAccount, userData, fetchUserData, oauthLoginCallback, acknowledgeGooglePurchase — convert the String result via `.toByteArray(Charsets.UTF_8)` before calling success() (mirrors Swift's `.data(using: .utf8)`). * Methods whose Dart callers expect a String — availableFeatures, getAvailableServers, getSelectedServerJSON — drop the `String(byteArray)` constructor and use the return value directly, with the same "{}" / "[]" empty-default that iOS uses.

The resulting `json.data(using: .utf8)` returns Data? anyway — an empty Go string still produces a non-nil empty Data, which preserves the Flutter contract the comment on these lines describes.

Now that the companion radiance PR adds a /config/events SSE endpoint, restore the listener using lc.client.ConfigEvents with the same reconnect-with-backoff pattern listenAutoSelectedEvents uses.

Without it, nightly builds from main fail to connect on any smart-routing country (Macao, Bulgaria, etc.). Confirmed by comparing Freshdesk #172722 (broken, rule_set_remote.go:235, v1.12.19-lantern) with #172795 (working, rule_set_remote.go:113, v1.12.21-lantern). Same user, same device, same 9.0.25 version, same smart-routing-bg-common-direct fetch failure — only the sing-box-minimal version differs. The v9.0.25-beta-android tag was cut before #8655 merged, which is why Alexander's beta works while the nightly doesn't. `go mod tidy` also dropped stale go.sum entries for superseded radiance and lantern-box pseudo-versions and removed the unused getsentry/sentry-go indirect (left behind after #8665). * Makefile: fix empty common.Version on Windows CI (missing app version 400) (#8677) * Makefile: use env-provided APP_VERSION so Windows CI populates version ldflag common.Version in radiance was being linked as an empty string on Windows CI builds. The `-X .../common.Version=$(APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC)` ldflag depended on `$(shell grep ... | sed ...)` or a PowerShell fallback, and the Windows path was producing an empty value. With common.Version empty, backend.NewRequestWithHeaders sets X-Lantern-App-Version to "", and lantern-cloud's /v1/config-new handler rejects the request with 400 "missing app version" — no config is returned, so the client falls back to the embedded server list with no bandit tracks. Observed on Freshdesk #172794 (Windows 9.0.26 nightly, radiance 400s on every retry). Use the APP_VERSION already exported to GITHUB_ENV by build-windows.yml's "Read app version from pubspec.yaml" step, and compute APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC with Make built-ins ($(firstword $(subst +, ,...))) so no shell tools are required. Drops the Windows_NT branch; local dev on Mac/Linux still uses the grep/sed fallback (APP_VERSION ?=). * Makefile: restore Windows local-dev fallback for APP_VERSION The previous commit removed the Windows_NT branch under the assumption that APP_VERSION would always come from the environment. That's true on CI (build-windows.yml exports it to GITHUB_ENV), but local Windows developers running `make windows-release` directly don't set the env var, and the grep/sed fallback runs under cmd.exe where Unix-style quoting fails silently. Add back the Windows PowerShell branch, but only as the fallback when APP_VERSION isn't in the environment (`?=` on both branches). CI keeps working via the env override; local Mac/Linux uses grep/sed; local Windows uses PowerShell Select-String. The `+`-splitting stays in Make built-ins so it works no matter which branch produced APP_VERSION. * Makefile: fail the build when APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC ends up empty Adds a parse-time guard so an unresolvable version fails loudly rather than producing a binary with empty common.Version — which is what caused this whole bug in the first place. Addresses Copilot review feedback on PR #8677. $ APP_VERSION="" make Makefile:36: *** APP_VERSION_PUBSPEC is empty; export APP_VERSION ... * Roll in #8676: PowerShell quoting + Windows service startup log Incorporates the non-overlapping pieces of @atavism's PR #8676 so we can close it in favor of this PR: - Swap the Windows APP_VERSION fallback's PowerShell invocation to outer-single / inner-double quoting. The previous outer-double / inner-single form gets mangled when Make expands $$ and cmd.exe passes the resulting string to powershell, even in the local-dev fallback path. - Same fix for GO_VERSION's PowerShell shell-out further down in the Makefile (separate variable, same root cause). - Log the Windows service startup (name, version, mode) so it's visible when triaging issues.

But the Go FFI (lantern-core/ffi/ffi.go) returns C.CString("ok") on success for both addSplitTunnelItem and removeSplitTunnelItem — a non-null C string. As a result, every successful add/remove was being reported to the UI as a failure with message "ok". Symptoms: - Adding a website in split tunneling showed an unstyled default snackbar reading "OK" (the default Material SnackBar rendering failure.localizedErrorMessage). - The website appeared to not be saved — but it actually was; the provider's `reloaded` flag was never set, so the on-screen list never re-fetched from the backend. - Re-clicking "Add" with the same domain created a duplicate entry on disk (visible as repeated items in split-tunnel.json) because the provider's local "already-added" check worked against a stale copy that had never been refreshed. Fix: mirror the checkAPIError convention — treat literal "ok" as success, parse JSON {"error": "..."} bodies for the error message, and fall back to the raw string otherwise.

Check VPNStatus first and route to SelectServer when Connected, falling back to ConnectVPN otherwise. * android: detach connect() scope so withTimeout actually unblocks the UI (#8689) * review: detach connect() scope so timeout actually unblocks the UI Copilot flagged on #8689 that the existing coroutineScope { ... } still hangs in exactly the scenario this change is meant to protect against. Structured coroutineScope cancels its children on exception but then waits for them to complete — so when withTimeout fires, we cancel the deferred (which the JNI call ignores, since it has no suspension points) and then block on it finishing anyway. Net effect: the UI is still frozen, which is the symptom we're trying to prevent. Switch to a DETACHED CoroutineScope(SupervisorJob() + Dispatchers.IO). Its Job is not a child of the enclosing coroutine, so cancelling it doesn't join — the orphan coroutine keeps running the JNI call in the background until Go returns or the process exits, but the caller is unblocked and the runCatching.onFailure path fires the timeout error state for the UI. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * review: add single-flight gate to prevent orphan accumulation Copilot correctly pointed out on #8689 that the detached-scope approach can accumulate orphan coroutines if the user retries while a previous connect() is still stuck in JNI. Each orphan pins a Dispatchers.IO thread; enough retries against a truly deadlocked Go side could pressure the IO pool. Their suggested fix (Dispatchers.IO.limitedParallelism(1)) would serialize retries behind the orphan, turning the 2nd retry into another 60s hang. A simple single-flight AtomicBoolean gate with fast rejection is the cleaner mitigation: - compareAndSet rejects concurrent attempts with IllegalStateException (surfaces via the existing runCatching.onFailure → error state). - The flag clears in a try/finally inside the async block, which runs when the JNI call eventually returns — cancellation alone can't break it out, but once Go completes the finally runs and a future retry is admitted. - Process death (reboot, force-stop) resets the flag naturally.

Radiance's Restart() treats the sync return as "restart succeeded" and leaves the tunnel at status=Restarting, expecting the platform coroutine to drive it through stopVPN → startVPN and transition status via Mobile.* side-effects. If the service is torn down before the coroutine completes (onDestroy, process pressure), nothing ever transitions the tunnel out of Restarting. Switch to runBlocking(Dispatchers.IO) so the return actually reflects completion. c.mu is released on the Go side before RestartService is invoked, so synchronous Mobile.* callbacks on this thread don't deadlock. 2. stopVPNTunnel() skipped Mobile.stopVPN() when Mobile.isVPNConnected() returned false. isVPNConnected is status == Connected — but at the point stopVPNTunnel is called from restartService, radiance has already set status=Restarting, so the guard always skips and the tunnel is never actually closed. Swap the guard for Mobile.isRadianceConnected() — i.e. only skip when the IPC server itself isn't up. Mobile.stopVPN() is a no-op when c.tunnel is nil on the Go side, so the original guard was redundant even for the Connected == true case. Evidence from Freshdesk #173681 logs for the broken path: - 15:17:34.826 Restart → 15:17:34.828 "Tunnel restarted successfully" (2ms total — consistent with fire-and-forget, not real teardown) - No subsequent tunnel.init / Tunnel connection established - 15:19:10 onDestroy logs "Skipping stopVPN — VPN tunnel was never started" (same isVPNConnected() check) - 15:21:48 next Connect fails within 2ms of the IPC request with "tunnel is currently Restarting" Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * android: drop isVPNConnected guard in onDestroy too Same shape as the restart-path fix: if c.tunnel is non-nil on the Go side but the tunnel status is anything other than Connected (Restarting after a failed restart, Connecting mid-startup, Error from a prior failure), isVPNConnected() returns false and the old guard skipped Mobile.stopVPN(). That left the radiance tunnel state dangling across service destroy. Observed in Freshdesk #173681: "onDestroy — radianceConnected=true vpnConnected=false, Skipping stopVPN — VPN tunnel was never started" while the tunnel was actually alive at status=Restarting. Swap the second guard for an unconditional call. Mobile.stopVPN() is a no-op when c.tunnel is nil, so the guard was always redundant — it just happened to also hide the non-Connected-but-non-nil case that's load-bearing during restart. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * android: verify restart postcondition before returning to Go launchVPN wraps its body in runCatching { ... }.onFailure { ... } and returns normally regardless of whether Mobile.startVPN() threw — so a nil return from startVPN() does not mean the restart succeeded. Without a postcondition check, restartService would log "completed" and return to radiance as if everything worked, even though the tunnel is still stuck in Restarting, which defeats the whole point of making this function block. Check Mobile.isVPNConnected() at the end of the runBlocking block and throw IllegalStateException if false. The exception propagates through runBlocking → restartService → radiance's platformIfce.RestartService() as a non-nil error, so Restart() hits the ErrorStatus branch and the caller sees the failure.

The only awaited call between that last log and runApp is Updater.init(). Inside init(), the actual update check is already deferred 45 s via Future.delayed + unawaited. But setFeedURL and setScheduledCheckInterval are awaited — both bridge into Sparkle via the auto_updater Flutter plugin, and both can stall on first launch: feed URL resolution, keychain access, or a previous launch's background worker still holding a lock. Any of those becomes a main-isolate hang that prevents runApp, which exactly matches the observed symptom. Fix: drop the await so Updater.init() runs concurrently with the rest of startup. All errors are already handled inside init() itself, so unawaited is safe.

The error is returned to the Dart UI as a snackbar, the tunnel stays pinned to the previously selected manual server, and lantern.log is silent because neither LocalBackend.ConnectVPN nor VPNClient.Connect slog the ErrTunnelAlready Connected path. Observed on 9.0.30 beta (internal tester, Freshdesk #173763, build from commit 405468954 which includes Jigar's 289507280). After manually picking Bogotá, clicking "Smart" at the top of the server-selection screen surfaces the snackbar and the tunnel keeps routing traffic through the Bogotá samizdat outbound. Fix: when Status() == Connected, LanternCore.ConnectVPN dispatches the request to /server/selected (the live-tunnel outbound swap) instead of /vpn/connect. Empty tag normalizes to vpn.AutoSelectTag — Dart sends "" for Smart, radiance recognizes only the literal "auto" and otherwise falls into the manual-outbound branch of SelectServer, stranding Clash in manual mode with an empty selector. The mapping is centralized in a small normalizeAutoTag helper used by both ConnectVPN and SelectServer. This puts the same dispatch logic that lives in ffi.go:connectToServer onto every caller of LanternCore.ConnectVPN — including ffi.go:startVPN (which Jigar's rewrite now funnels through) and any future FFI/mobile entry point. getlantern/engineering#3291 issue 3. Supersedes earlier work on fisk/connect-dispatch-select-when-connected (485bf5a00), which was scoped to this same dispatch but predated the current refactor branch.

Jigar's onSmartLocation rewrite dispatches "switch back to Smart" through startVPN(force: true), which on Android/iOS lands here. Same ErrTunnelAlreadyConnected bug as the FFI path fixed in the previous commit. Mirror the VPNStatus dispatch pattern garmr already added to vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer in 405468954: when Status() == Connected, swap outbound via /server/selected; otherwise fall through to the existing /vpn/connect start.

Collapse to a single c.ConnectVPN call — both the live-tunnel-swap and fresh-connect paths flow through the dispatch one layer down. Behavior unchanged.

Consolidate so vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer is the authoritative dispatch and the other two delegate. - LanternCore.ConnectVPN → vpn_tunnel.ConnectToServer(lc.client, tag) - vpn_tunnel.StartVPN → ConnectToServer(client, vpn.AutoSelectTag) LanternCore.SelectServer keeps its own empty-tag normalization since its scope is the one-shot SelectServer IPC, not the dispatch.

The 300 ms cap made sense as "fast probe → systemd-rich-error", with the systemd query adding the actual user-facing context. Subsequent refactors (commit bd89bea7e Apr 7, then PR #8578 commit 4d4e06d9d Apr 16) generalized that preflight to all platforms but the systemd fallback only survived in ffi_linux.go. On Windows / macOS / mobile, ffi_nonlinux.go ended up running the same 300 ms probe with no fallback — just an artificial guillotine in front of ConnectVPN, which has its own "lanternd not reachable" error path with equivalent precision. Cold-start IPC on Windows regularly exceeds 300 ms (named-pipe dial + winio impersonation token dance + H2c connection preface + goroutine scheduling on a 96-second-idle daemon), so the first VPN toggle after launch reliably trips the timeout and shows the user a "lanternd not reachable" error. Clicking again 10 seconds later silently succeeds. Reproduced on the same Windows machine across 9.0.29 (Freshdesk #173696) and 9.0.30 (#173932). Make the preflight a no-op on non-Linux. Linux keeps the original fast-probe-then-systemdDiag flow unchanged. If we add Windows (`sc query LanternSvc`) or macOS (`launchctl list`) diagnostics later, restore the preflight and call them from here. See getlantern/engineering#3382 for the full archaeology + design discussion. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * ffi + lantern-core: bound IPC calls with per-operation timeouts Companion to dropping the non-Linux daemon-reachability preflight in this same PR. The preflight (ffi_nonlinux.go's `checkDaemonReachable`) was introduced in commit bd89bea7e along with the *removal* of per-call timeouts that used to live on the FFI layer: - ctx, cancel := context.WithTimeout(context.Background(), 5*time.Second) - if err := c.Client().DisconnectVPN(ctx); err != nil { ... } + if err := c.DisconnectVPN(); err != nil { ... } After that change, the only IPC call with any deadline at all was the 300 ms preflight. Every other operation flowed lc.ctx ( context.WithCancel(context.Background())) straight through, meaning a hung lanternd would freeze the UI indefinitely. Dropping the preflight without restoring per-call timeouts removes the only line of defense. Restore them at the LanternCore layer where they belong, with values sized for the inherent work each operation does (state changes can run into multi-second territory; status queries should be near-instant): ipcConnectTimeout = 60 * time.Second // ConnectVPN ipcStateChangeTimeout = 30 * time.Second // SelectServer, DisconnectVPN ipcStatusTimeout = 10 * time.Second // VPNStatus, IsVPNRunning These bound the worst case (hung daemon → user sees a clear error within a minute, no indefinite spinner) without firing during normal slow paths. The dialer's 10 s connect timeout (radiance/ipc/conn_windows.go) already covers the lanternd-crashed case; these guard the lanternd-hung case. vpn_tunnel.{StartVPN, StopVPN, ConnectToServer} take the ctx through their signatures instead of building their own context.Background() internally, so callers stay in charge of their own deadlines. mobile/ mobile.go updated to set 60 s / 30 s / 60 s contexts on its three gomobile entry points. CheckDaemonReachable's 300 ms timeout is kept untouched — Linux still calls it from ffi_linux.go for the systemctl is-active fallback that's the whole point of the fast probe.

Split out from #8706 so they can land independently of the broader app-discovery rework that PR also contained. 1. **GetEnabledApps returns []string{} instead of nil.** When no apps are split-tunneled, the previous code returned nil, which json.Marshal serialized as "null". Dart's jsonDecode("null") returns null; the receiving code does `as List`, which throws and the UI shows "Failed to fetch installed apps". Initializing as an empty slice serializes to "[]" — Dart parses that as an empty list, no exception, no error UI. THIS is the actual root cause of the empty-list reports we've been chasing; the apps-discovery scanner work was investigating a different (also-real but secondary) issue. 2. **UI-process slog wired up via common.Init.** On the refactor branch, the UI process never called common.Init. slog wrote to stderr (= nowhere on a GUI host), settings were uninitialized, no lantern.log was produced outside the daemon. Patrick caught this — it was a one-line miss in the refactor. Platform-aware so we don't double-init on platforms where the backend embeds in-process: - windows/linux: full common.Init (separate UI + daemon procs) - darwin/ios: setupAppLogging into a distinct lantern-app.log so the main-app slog doesn't race the tunnel extension's lantern.log on lumberjack rotation - android: Mobile.SetupRadiance already ran common.Init upstream — fall through 3. **Auto-attach UI-process *.log to ReportIssue (windows/linux only).** Without it the daemon's archive glob only sees the daemon's logDir; UI-side lantern.log + flutter.log never reach the issue bundle. The daemon runs as SYSTEM on Windows; we keep UI logDir at %PUBLIC%\Lantern\logs so SYSTEM can read it. The broader Windows app-discovery work from #8706 (App Paths scan, Run keys, Squirrel pattern, isAppPathsNoise heuristic filters) is being held in a separate PR for independent review.

Pairs with: * radiance: https://github.com/getlantern/radiance/pull/445 * lantern-cloud: https://github.com/getlantern/lantern-cloud/pull/2649 * `lantern-core/mobile`: new gomobile-exported `SetQAEnvOverrides(socks, tz)` that does `os.Setenv` for `RADIANCE_OUTBOUND_SOCKS_ADDRESS` and `TZ`. Must be called before `SetupRadiance`/`StartIPCServer` to take effect. * `android/.../LanternApp.kt`: override `onCreate` and call the new setter with values from Android system properties: `debug.lantern.outbound_socks` -> `RADIANCE_OUTBOUND_SOCKS_ADDRESS` `debug.lantern.tz` -> `TZ` Set with `adb shell setprop debug.lantern.outbound_socks 10.0.2.2:1080`. No-op when the props are unset, so production builds aren't affected unless someone deliberately sets them on the device. * `go.mod`: bump radiance to the qa/outbound-socks-egress branch tip (will swap back to a pinned tag once that PR lands). Verified end-to-end in an `lantern_test` AVD with packetstream + Russia upstream: - LanternApp logs `QA env overrides applied: outbound_socks=10.0.2.2:1080` - Radiance's `/v1/config-new` response: `country=RU ip=85.172.81.50` - Bandit serves Russia-tier outbounds (samizdat / reflex in DE/SE/SG/etc.) - All sing-box outbound dials wrapped in `_dev_outbound_socks` detour - Browsing in the emulator's Chrome egresses from a Lantern entry server (e.g. Stockholm/Singapore — bandit-assigned, not the Mac's home IP) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> * code review updates --------- Co-authored-by: garmr <pdixon117@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Jigar-f <jigar@getlantern.org> Co-authored-by: jigar-f <132374182+jigar-f@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: atavism <atavism@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-authored-by: Ilya Yakelzon <reflog@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Copilot <175728472+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: copilot-swe-agent[bot] <198982749+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: reflog <109876+reflog@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: Adam Fisk <afisk@mini.local> Co-authored-by: Jay <110402935+jay-418@users.noreply.github.com> Co-authored-by: atavism <paul@getlantern.org> Co-authored-by: garmr-ulfr <104022054+garmr-ulfr@users.noreply.github.com>

Split out from #8706 — the base-bug fix half. The companion PR with the broader Windows app-discovery rework is at #8710.
Summary
Two narrow changes that together resolve Freshdesk #173774 / #173778 / #173826 (Derek's "Failed to fetch installed apps" on Windows split tunneling):
1.
GetEnabledAppsreturns[]string{}instead ofnilWhen no apps are split-tunneled the previous code returned
nil, whichjson.Marshalserializes as"null". Dart'sjsonDecode("null")returnsnull; the receiving Flutter code doesas List, which throws and the UI shows "Failed to fetch installed apps". Initializing as an empty slice serializes to"[]"— Dart parses that as an empty list, no exception, no error UI.This is the actual root cause of the empty-list reports we've been chasing. The apps-discovery scanner work in the companion PR was investigating a different (also-real but secondary) symptom.
