Three iOS client problems fixed plus a new core stereo-mic capture ABI:
1. Channel-id sync bug (mic button permanently dimmed): SessionState never
synced currentChannelId from the self user's channelId on connect, so the
mic button (gated on currentChannelId == 0) stayed dimmed. Added
syncSelfChannel() (mirrors macOS MainWindowController.swift:461,491,522);
called from init/.channelList/.userJoined/.userLeft/.userUpdated/.joinResult.
Added applyServerMuteState() + serverMuted/serverDeafened to VoiceState.
2. Join/Leave Voice button: replaced icon-only mic toggle with explicit
text button (parity with macOS). Mute/deafen disable when not in voice.
3. IOSAudioRouter.swift (new): full AVAudioSession routing layer — input
port selection, built-in mic orientation/polar patterns, Bluetooth
HFP/A2DP/Off modes, Standard/Raw mic processing, stereo capture, AirPlay,
UserDefaults persistence. AudioSessionManager delegates to it.
4. Core stereo-mic capture (append-only ABI): vc_set_capture_channels()
lets the core open the mic device in stereo (2-ch interleaved). LocalStream
gains capture_channels; ensure_audio_running reads it; audio_engine.cpp
capture_accum_ + on_capture updated to channel-aware accumulation. Test
test_stereo_mic_capture (headless, L!=R stereo round-trip). Swift wrapper
VoiceCatClient.setCaptureChannels.
5. Settings UI rework: AVAudioSession-derived input/output tree replaces
miniaudio device picker.
6. iOS deployment target raised to 18.0 (Package.swift + project.pbxproj).
swift-tools-version 6.0 with swiftLanguageModes .v5.
Docs: tech-stack.md, architecture.md, voice.md, roadmap.md, building.md
updated; stale 'vc_audio_suspend/resume deferred' claims corrected.
Verified: ctest --preset dev 21/21 green; swift test 6/6 green;
xcodebuild -target VoiceCatiOS -sdk iphonesimulator BUILD SUCCEEDED.
