Mic input gain (was 3x) and per-user receive gain (was 2x) had
asymmetric boost ceilings. Raise both, plus the desktop aux input
gain (was 3x), to a uniform 4x (400%) on macOS, iOS, and Windows.
The master Output volume slider is unchanged (still 1x). No core
changes needed: the C ABI only clamps negatives, so the ceilings
live entirely in the client UI sliders.

Let users choose what the SCREEN_AUDIO stream captures before sharing:
share everything, only selected apps, or all except selected apps, plus a
first-class "Exclude screen reader (VoiceOver) audio" toggle.
ScreenCaptureKit filters audio per application, so ScreenAudioCapture now
takes a ScreenAudioSelection and builds the matching SCContentFilter
(including:/excludingApplications:). New ScreenSharePickerSheet lists
running apps from SCShareableContent. iOS left untouched -- ReplayKit only
delivers the mixed system stream, so per-app filtering is impossible there.
Channel create/edit UIs only surfaced a subset of the core's vc_audio_config,
and DRED was exposed nowhere. While adding it, found a latent ABI mismatch:
both Swift AudioConfig and the C# VcAudioConfigNative blittable struct were one
int short of the native vc_audio_config (missing the trailing `dred`), so native
read past the managed struct in vc_create_channel/vc_edit_channel.
- core marshaling: thread `dred` through Swift (Models/Marshaling/toNative) and
C# (Structs/Models/Marshaling/VoiceCatClient) -- fixes the ABI gap + enables it
- windows: add the one missing DRED checkbox to ChannelEditDialog
- macos: ChannelEditSheet now exposes application, sample rate, packet loss,
complexity, and DRED (was stereo/bitrate/frame/FEC/DTX only)
- ios: rebuild ChannelEditView into a full create+edit form (all params); add
SessionState.editChannel + an admin Edit swipe action (iOS had no edit UI)
- guest nickname: add a dedicated `nickname` to SavedServer on macOS+iOS
(backward-compatible Codable), shown in Guest mode, wired into the guest auth
path -- guests could not set a display name on either before (only Windows)
Verified: macOS + iOS (sim, arm64) xcodebuild BUILD SUCCEEDED; core ctest 22/23
(only external_pcm aborts on a pre-existing shutdown mutex race; no C++ changed).
Mirrors the Windows client's UI overhaul (commit 97fa659 + 540ec13) adapted to
Mac-native conventions. The main window is now just toolbar + channels + users
+ chat; audio device settings moved to a modeless Settings window.
- NSToolbar: Join Voice, Share Screen Audio, Mute, Deafen (SF Symbol toggle
buttons) + Output Volume slider (NSSlider 0-100, default 80). Voice actions,
mute/deafen, and output volume moved out of the bottom panel into the toolbar
- Audio device settings (input mode, VAD sensitivity, PTT key, device picker,
level meter) moved to a new SettingsWindowController -- a modeless window
opened via the app menu's "Settings..." (Cmd+,) item. Source-of-truth for
audio state lives in MainWindowController so voice start applies settings even
before the window has been opened; SettingsWindowController reads from /
writes back to those properties and applies changes live when voice is active.
Level meter forwarded from handleLevel -> updateLevel(rms:)
- Unified log: chat NSTextView + activity NSTableView collapsed into a single
NSTextView -- activity events in secondaryLabelColor (gray), chat in default
- Private messaging: scope dropdown removed; compose always sends to the
current channel. Each PM conversation opens in its own modeless
PrivateMessageWindowController. Incoming .textMessage with .private scope
routed to the right window; outgoing PMs echoed by server arrive through the
same path. "Send Private Message..." added to user context menu.
- Messages menu: "New Private Message..." (Cmd+Shift+N) opens a UserPickerSheet
listing all server users so you can PM anyone on the server
- Channel tree now shows live user counts, e.g. "General (3)"; refreshChannelTree
called on .userJoined/.userLeft (was missing)
- Voice menu: Join Voice (Cmd+Shift+V), Share Screen Audio (Cmd+Shift+S),
Mute (Cmd+Shift+M), Deafen (Cmd+Shift+D) -- NSMenuItem key equivalents with
[.command, .shift] mask, dispatched by the responder chain
- setOutputVolume(_:) wrapper added to VoiceCatClient.swift (was missing -- the
C ABI + C# wrapper shipped in commit 97fa659 but the Swift wrapper was never
added); wired end-to-end: toolbar slider -> client.setOutputVolume(gain)
Part A -- fixed and verified the previously-uncompiled Swift from the external
PCM feed/tap commit (615d2a8):
- Rebuilt the macOS xcframework slice (regenerated the module map from current
voicecat.h, exposing vc_pcm_sink_cb / vc_stream_feed_pcm / vc_set_pcm_sink)
- Fixed feedPcm type bug: size_t imports as Int in Swift not UInt; the original
UInt(samplesPerChannel) was wrong
- Added VoiceCatPcmSinkCallback typealias -- a Swift-idiomatic public alias for
the C vc_pcm_sink_cb so consumers (tests, the macOS app) can declare a sink
callback without directly importing the VoiceCatC C module. Mirrors the C#
VcPcmSinkCallback delegate
- keyCodeName helper deduplicated (was in PttKeyCaptureSheet.swift +
MainWindowController.swift -- now shared)
Platform-specific adaptations (vs. Windows): NSToolbar instead of ToolStrip;
global menu bar + NSMenuItem key equivalents (Cmd not Ctrl, responder-chain
dispatched, no custom key monitor needed); PM windows as modeless NSWindows;
picker as Mac sheet; gray = secondaryLabelColor; SF Symbols for toolbar icons.
swift test 10/10 (4 ExternalPcmTests + 6 VoiceCatClientSmokeTests against a
live server); xcodebuild Debug + Release BUILD SUCCEEDED with 0 Swift warnings.
The previous "shipped" claim was false — xcodebuild had never been run and
the macOS app source was never committed. This commit adds the 17 Swift
source files + xcodeproj and fixes three real defect classes so Debug and
Release both build clean:
1. MainWindowController.swift compile errors:
- NSAccessibility.post arg order (element:notification:userInfo:)
- NSAccessibilityPriorityMedium -> NSAccessibilityPriorityLevel.medium
- StreamSummary.streamId -> .id (Identifiable conformance)
- drop redundant VoiceCatResult.description extension
2. Linker: add -lc++ to OTHER_LDFLAGS (libvoicecat-fat.a is C++20; pure-Swift
app target has no .cpp sources so libc++ wasn't pulled in — swift test
passed because Package.swift testTarget has linkerSettings: c++).
3. Release config: add ONLY_ACTIVE_ARCH=YES (XCFramework only has arm64).
Verified: clean Debug + Release builds, otool -L shows libc++.1.dylib,
nm shows _vc_client_create/_vc_version_string, app launches and runs.
