Phase 2 of docs/subgroups.md. Somewhere to put a parent, now that Phase 1 can prove one. | table | column | filled from | trusted? | |---|---|---|---| | GroupKeyState | parentChatRoomId | the state's parent tag | yes -- the certificate was checked | | GroupKeyState | birthCertificateJson | the state's certificate tag | yes -- same | | ChatRoom | parentChatRoomId | the verified key state | yes | | DkgSession | parentChatRoomId | a tag on a ceremony proposal | **no** -- a screen's title | The trust column is the point of the table and is written into the KDoc of each one. Three of these are written only after a signature has been checked; the fourth is an unverified claim off a wire message, and a column that mixed the two would be a column no reader could act on. Nothing may be granted on the strength of `DkgSession.parentChatRoomId` that would not be granted without it. **None of the four is a foreign key, and that is the change most likely to be "fixed" by somebody later.** `GroupKeyState`, `DkgSession` and `GroupSignedEvent` all declare `ForeignKey(onDelete = CASCADE)` onto ChatRoom, so pointing a parent column at ChatRoom the same way is the obvious next move. It would mean deleting a parent room deletes every subgroup row beneath it -- and then, by their own cascades, each subgroup's messages, participants, key state, signing sessions and signed events. A user tidying away a group they had left would silently destroy a group they are still in. RESTRICT is no better: it would make a parent undeletable while any child row exists, which is a foreign key deciding a product question. And neither would work anyway, because a parent pointer routinely names a room this device does not have at all -- a member of a subgroup who was never in its parent holds the id off a certificate and nothing else. A dangling reference is the normal, expected state here, and readers resolve it with a lookup allowed to return null. **The certificate is stored whole, as JSON, rather than as its signature.** A signature plus a rule for rebuilding the event it covers is a rule that breaks silently the first time the certificate's shape changes: a rebuild differing by one byte hashes to an id whose signature fails, and is indistinguishable from a forgery. A few hundred bytes inside an encryption removes the class. The parent column beside it is an index into that event, never a second source of truth -- the two are written together or not at all. Four DAO reads, each with the limits of what it answers written down. `GroupKeyStateDao.getByParentChatRoomId`/`observe` list the children whose state this device holds, which is *verified* but not complete -- a certified child whose room was never created here leaves no state at all. `ChatRoomDao.observeByParentChatRoomId` lists the ones there is something to open, excluding soft-deleted rooms so a room the user cleared away does not reappear because its parent lists it. `DkgSessionDao.getByParentChatRoomId` is how a member gets back into a subgroup flow they closed the app during, since before the certificate is signed the ceremony is the only thing on the device that knows the flow was started. `AutoMigration(16, 17)`: nullable additions are a shape Room migrates itself, and 17.json exports with no new foreign key on any of the three tables. Nine tests in `SubgroupDaoJvmTest`, all on properties the compiler cannot see: a state and a room may each name a parent this device holds no room for; deleting a parent leaves its child, its child's key state and its child's lineage standing; the parent lists its children newest-first and filters on *which* parent rather than on having one; a soft-deleted subgroup drops out; and a ceremony round-trips the parent it was opened for. 386 common tests and 673 jvm tests pass.

This is a Kotlin Multiplatform project targeting Android, iOS, Desktop (JVM).
-
/composeApp is for code that will be shared across your Compose Multiplatform applications. It contains several subfolders:
- commonMain is for code that’s common for all targets.
- Other folders are for Kotlin code that will be compiled for only the platform indicated in the folder name. For example, if you want to use Apple’s CoreCrypto for the iOS part of your Kotlin app, the iosMain folder would be the right place for such calls. Similarly, if you want to edit the Desktop (JVM) specific part, the jvmMain folder is the appropriate location.
-
/iosApp contains iOS applications. Even if you’re sharing your UI with Compose Multiplatform, you need this entry point for your iOS app. This is also where you should add SwiftUI code for your project.
Build and Run Android Application
To build and run the development version of the Android app, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or build it directly from the terminal:
- on macOS/Linux
./gradlew :composeApp:assembleDebug - on Windows
.\gradlew.bat :composeApp:assembleDebug
Build and Run Desktop (JVM) Application
To build and run the development version of the desktop app, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or run it directly from the terminal:
- on macOS/Linux
./gradlew :composeApp:run - on Windows
.\gradlew.bat :composeApp:run
Build and Run iOS Application
To build and run the development version of the iOS app, use the run configuration from the run widget in your IDE’s toolbar or open the /iosApp directory in Xcode and run it from there.
