+# Kecalek Android — Architecture Reference
+
+## Project
+- Package: `com.kecalek.chat`
+- Root: `E:\encrypted_chat_vyvoj\android\`
+- Server: `chat.ai-tech.news:9999` (TCP, newline-delimited JSON)
+- iOS ref: `E:\encrypted_chat_vyvoj\ios\Kecalek\Kecalek\`
+- Python ref: `E:\encrypted_chat_vyvoj\python\encrypted_chat\`
+
+## Tech Stack
+- Kotlin, Jetpack Compose + Material 3, Catppuccin Mocha dark theme
+- Crypto: Tink + Bouncy Castle (Ed25519, X25519, AES-256-GCM, HKDF, RSA-PSS)
+- DB: Room + SQLCipher (`kecalek_chat.db`), DI: Hilt, Network: Raw TCP
+- Coroutines + Flow throughout
+
+## Critical Constants
+```kotlin
+// Constants.kt
+SELF_DEVICE_ID = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"  // self-copy sentinel
+DEFAULT_HOST = "chat.ai-tech.news"
+DEFAULT_PORT = 9999
+```
+
+## Protocol Field Names (MUST match server exactly)
+| Field | Correct | Wrong |
+|-------|---------|-------|
+| X3DH identity key | `"ik"` | ~~`"ik_pub"`~~ |
+| X3DH ephemeral key | `"ek"` | ~~`"ek_pub"`~~ |
+| Push sender field | `"sender_id"` | ~~`"sender_user_id"`~~ |
+| Ratchet header | `{dh_pub: hex, n: int, pn: int}` | — |
+| Self-copy ratchet | `{"self": true}` | — |
+| Multi-device push | `"device_entries"` array | — |
+
+## Encryption Protocol
+```
+X3DH (new session):
+  4 DH ops, HKDF salt=0x00*32, info="EncryptedChat_X3DH"
+  Header sent: {"ik": b64(idPub), "ek": b64(ephPub), "opk_id": id?}
+
+Double Ratchet (per-message):
+  Chain KDF: msg_key=HMAC(ck, 0x01), next_ck=HMAC(ck, 0x02)
+  encrypt() -> RatchetMessage(header, ciphertext, nonce)
+  header.toMap() -> {"dh_pub": hex, "n": int, "pn": int}
+
+AES-256-GCM: 12-byte nonce, 16-byte tag
+MessagePadding: pad/unpad with 64B..64KB buckets
+Self-copy: HKDF(identityPrivate, "self_encryption") -> static AES key
+  SELF_DEVICE_ID = "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000"
+
+Plaintext payload JSON:
+  {"sender": "username", "text": "hello", "reply_to": null, "timestamp": "2026-...Z"}
+Control message: {"_sender_key": {"conv_id": "...", "key": b64}} → import silently

+
+### Phase 2 — Network (3 files)

+---
+
+## 🔧 READY TO BUILD & TEST
+
+### Build
+- [ ] Build in Android Studio (Ctrl+F9 / Build > Make Project)
+  - Note: Cannot build from CLI (JAVA_HOME not set on Windows)
+  - Expected: clean build with no compilation errors
+
+### Integration Tests
+- [ ] Send DM: type message on Android → verify arrives on Python/iOS client
+- [ ] Receive DM: send from Python/iOS → verify appears on Android
+- [ ] Self-copy: message I send appears in my own chat view immediately
+- [ ] X3DH new session: first message to new user triggers X3DH + works correctly
+- [ ] Group message: send in group conversation → all members receive
+- [ ] Reaction: add emoji reaction → reflects on all clients
+- [ ] Pin: pin a message → shows in pinned list
+- [ ] Delete: delete message → removed from all clients
+
+---
+
+## 🟡 TODO — ChatViewModel Secondary Features
+
+### Simple API calls (ready to implement)
+- [x] deleteMessage(messageId) — `api.deleteMessage()` + `messageRepository.markDeleted()`
+- [x] reactToMessage(messageId, reaction) — `api.reactMessage()` + `messageRepository.updateReactions()`
+- [x] pinMessage(messageId) — `api.pinMessage()` + `messageRepository.updatePinStatus()`
+- [x] markAsRead() — `api.markConversationRead(conversationId)`
+- [x] search(query) — `messageRepository.searchMessages()` + update searchResults in state
+- [x] nextSearchResult() / prevSearchResult() — navigate currentSearchIndex
+- [x] forwardMessage(messageId, targetConversationId) — re-encrypt plaintext for target conv
+
+### Complex (need encryption pipeline)
+- [ ] sendImage(uri) — AES encrypt image → chunked upload via uploadImageStart/Chunk/End
+  - ImageInfo {fileId, aesKey, iv, thumbnail, filename, size} stored in message
+  - Payload: {"sender", "text", "image": {"file_id": ..., "key": b64, "iv": b64}, "timestamp"}
+- [ ] sendFile(uri) — similar to sendImage but with FileInfo
+- [ ] downloadFile(fileId) — downloadImage() chunks → reassemble → AES decrypt
+  - Use offset pagination: loop downloadImage(fileId, offset) until complete
+
+---
+
+## 🟡 TODO — ChatClient Group Messaging
+
+- [ ] sendGroupMessage() — sender key protocol
+  - Check if each member has received sender key
+  - If not: send `_sender_key` control message first (DM encrypted per device)
+  - Then encrypt group message with SenderKey.encrypt()
+  - Track which members have the key in keyStorage or DB
+
+- [ ] Group member add: resend sender key to new member via DM
+- [ ] Group member remove: rotate sender key, resend to remaining members
+- [ ] Handle `member_added` / `member_removed` push notifications in ChatClient
+
+---
+
+## 🟠 KNOWN ISSUES
+
+### ✅ FIXED: SQLCipher passphrase (AppModule.kt)
+- **Was**: hardcoded `"TODO_REPLACE_WITH_DERIVED_KEY"` passphrase
+- **Now**: random 32-byte key generated once, stored in EncryptedSharedPreferences (Android Keystore)
+- **Migration**: if old DB exists without stored passphrase → old DB deleted, new one created
+- Note: Could use HKDF-derived key from identity private (like Python), but Android Keystore approach is simpler and equally secure
+
+### ✅ FIXED: AuthUiState.useTls = true (registration bug)
+- **Was**: `AuthUiState.useTls = true` → registration always tried TLS → SSL error if server is plain TCP
+- **Now**: `AuthUiState.useTls = false` — consistent with LoginScreen local default
+- LoginScreen always calls `updateServerConfig(useTls=false)` before login anyway
+- If server requires TLS, user can toggle it in Server Configuration section on LoginScreen
+
+### Push notification handler registration
+- ChatClient.setupNotificationHandlers() is called from initialize()
+- If ChatClient is not initialized (user not logged in), push notifications are silently dropped
+- Fix: Check session state before trying to decrypt; store encrypted push and decrypt on next init
+
+### Session persistence
+- Sessions (DoubleRatchet state) are saved to KeyStorage per device
+- If app is reinstalled, all sessions are lost → first message after reinstall needs X3DH
+- This is expected behavior but worth testing
+
+---
+
+## 📋 PROTOCOL COMPATIBILITY CHECKLIST
+
+### sendDm()
+- [x] Recipients per-device (not per-user)
+- [x] Self-copy: device_id = SELF_DEVICE_ID, ratchet_header = {"self": true}
+- [x] X3DH header fields: "ik", "ek", "opk_id" (NOT "ik_pub", "ek_pub")
+- [x] Binary encoding: base64 via encodeBinary()/decodeBinary()
+- [x] Ratchet header: dh_pub (hex), n, pn via header.toMap()
+- [x] Plaintext payload: JSON {"sender", "text", "reply_to", "timestamp"}
+- [x] Message padding: MessagePadding.pad() before encrypt, unpad() after decrypt
+
+### handleNewMessage() / decryptServerMessage()
+- [x] Push field: "sender_id" (NOT "sender_user_id")
+- [x] device_entries array: pick by myDeviceId or SELF_DEVICE_ID
+- [x] Self-copy detection: ratchet_header.self == true
+- [x] Control messages (_sender_key): import silently, don't display
+- [x] Flat fallback fields for backward compat
+
+---
+
+## 🔮 FUTURE — Nice to Have
+
+- [ ] Voice messages — record, encrypt with AES, upload as file
+- [ ] Disappearing messages — server-side TTL
+- [ ] Message editing — re-encrypt + server update
+- [ ] Key rotation — rotate RSA/Ed25519 identity keys
+- [ ] Device pairing — link second device (pairingStart/pairingSend)
+- [ ] Contact verification — UI to display safety numbers
+- [ ] Backup / restore — export encrypted sessions
+- [ ] Push notification channels — Android notification priorities
+- [ ] App lock (biometric / PIN)

filip	3d935dcfbf	Refactor AuthViewModel to match iOS auth flow Replace PendingAuth/RSA key passing with tempPassword pattern: - register(): saves keys to disk, stores password temporarily - confirmRegistration(): verifies code, then calls performLogin(email, tempPassword) which re-loads keys from disk - exactly as iOS does - Extract shared performLogin() suspend fn used by both login() and post-confirm flow - Remove PendingAuth data class entirely Simpler, correct, matches reference iOS implementation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-03-11 23:26:56 +01:00
filip	e36dfe1cee	Fix: isolate auto-login errors from confirmation code errors - confirmRegistration: wrap auto-login in separate try-catch so a failed login after confirmation never shows as 'wrong code' to the user. If auto-login fails, user is sent to LoginScreen to log in manually. - SessionManager.login: always reconnect fresh (disconnect + enableReconnect + connect) instead of reusing the stale post-registration TCP connection. Fixes login failures caused by server closing the registration connection. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-03-11 23:26:56 +01:00
