Jinwoo Hong 7cf09809f6 fix(mobile): group by Project with the desktop sidebar's own code (#28850)
* fix(mobile): phone server rows follow the desktop's other-client and sleeping filters

A phone created through a desktop now records whom it acted for, so the
desktop's Hide other-client workspaces filter keeps the user's own phone
workspaces (locally and on servers) and hides only other people's.
The desktop relay marks each server row its sidebar would hide, and the
rows its own browser or chat tabs keep awake; the phone applies both.

* test(e2e): dedupe sidebar row ids in the visibility spec

* fix(mobile): address review: owner naming, old-server relayed phones, scope trim

* refactor: move the sidebar's project section grouping into shared

The project sections the desktop sidebar draws under Group by Project are
built from the project/setup projection, the per-host catalog fold, the
endpoint host stamp, and the section labelling and ordering rules. Move the
pure parts of each into src/shared (no behaviour change) so the paired phone
can call the same code instead of guessing the grouping.

* fix(mobile): group by Project with the desktop sidebar's own sections

The phone grouped Project sections by repo display name, so it merged
checkouts the desktop keeps apart (several local stablyai/orca checkouts,
or a server's copy) and split what the desktop merges. The phone now reads
each host's repo.list, project.list and projectHostSetup.list (the desktop's
own and each server's through the relay), folds them with the renderer's
shared catalog fold and projection merge, and builds sections with the
desktop's shared grouping, labelling and ordering code. Keys, labels and
Recent order equal the sidebar's; a host that predates the project lists
gets the repo-derived projection, as the desktop does.

Header colour and icon come from the section's anchor repo and rows from
their own repo by id, as on the desktop. The repo filter lists every
catalog repo by id per host instead of merging same-named repos. Group-by
labels read Project and None. project.list and projectHostSetup.list are
routed for paired phones (read-only, workspace permission).

* refactor(mobile): record a phone's owner as creator and fold desktop tab activity into the host flag

A phone now records its owner as the creator (this host for a directly
paired phone, the relaying desktop for a delegated one), so the shared rule
is unchanged and onBehalfOf is gone. The relay ORs the desktop's saved
browser/chat tabs into hasHostSidebarActivity, so the phone's status dot
follows too, and local worktree.ps counts the same signals. The old-server
fallback is removed.

* test(e2e): poll the phone and the sidebar together in the visibility spec

* fix(mobile): one Project-section builder for desktop and phone, with the desktop's repo order

Review fixes. The sidebar's buildOrderedGroups now calls the shared
buildProjectSections for Group by Project (notice and pending repos are
optional inputs), so desktop and phone run one function. The phone ranks
manual header order by its folded catalog order, which is each host's
repo.list order with the desktop's own repos first, as the renderer loads
them; only the desktop's cross-host manualRepoOrder (pairing-local) is
unknown to it. The projection selector is now a memo over the shared
resolver. A transient project-list failure keeps that host's last catalog;
only forbidden or method_not_found falls back to the repo-derived
projection. Catalog rows are checked on every member grouping reads, and
the parity test answers the renderer's real catalog fetch, includes a
server's own project rows, and fixes Manual and Recent orders that differ.

* fix(mobile): use the repo-derived catalog until a host's project lists first answer

* fix(mobile): the desktop serves its sidebar's Project catalog instead of the phone fetching it

The phone fetched repo.list, project.list and projectHostSetup.list from
the desktop and every relay-ready server each minute and folded them
itself, so rows from offline or older servers fell back to repo sections
and keys moved on cold start.

The desktop renderer now publishes the inputs its own Project headers use
(state.repos in sidebar order, the projection selector's projects and
setups, projectOrderBy) on the runtime window graph it already sends to
main, only when they change. Main keeps the last one and answers it on a
new paired-desktop read, mobileRelay.projectSections. The phone reads it
with its repo metadata and groups with the shared builder; a desktop that
predates the read (forbidden or method_not_found) leaves the phone grouping
rows by repo from the desktop's repo.list, and a transient failure keeps
the last catalog. The payload carries only grouping and label fields, no
hooks, credentials or uploaded icons. The phone's own catalog fetching and
its project.list/projectHostSetup.list routes are removed.

* fix(mobile): keep uploaded repo icons on the phone, and isolate the snapshot tests

* test(e2e): the desktop window serves its sidebar's Project catalog to the phone

* chore(i18n): regenerate the runtime English catalog (drift already on main)

* fix(mobile): read the Project catalog as its own request, outside the recorded repo-metadata flow

The extra read inside the repo-metadata refresh stalled its recorded RPC
sequence. It now runs beside it with its own throttle. The repo-metadata
goldens are re-recorded for the intended state change: the name-keyed
colour, icon and id maps became desktopRepos.

* fix(mobile): fetch the Project catalog at once when the screen moves to another host

The refresh window is now kept per client, so a host screen reused for another desktop doesn't wait out the previous host's 60s window before showing its Project headers.
