Home, the adaptive workspace layout and the overlay portal were skipped by the React Compiler. So was the thread list's action hook.

Frozen-clock check. Home read new Date() inside its list derivations, and the snooze-wake timer re-arms off their result. Without manual memo deps, the compiler would cache those derivations on their other inputs and freeze the clock. That is the same 50 ms loop fixed in 7f7d639. The clock is now state: the minute interval advances it, and so does the snooze-wake timer, so the next wake boundary always moves forward. A 70 s idle measurement on Home showed 18 commits total, no loop.

Manual useMemo/useCallback/memo are removed from every file listed. KNOWN_BAILOUTS: 66 β†’ 58.

Verified on device (Pixel 9 API 36 emulator, isolated seeded server):

  • Home renders, scrolls, and expands the Snoozed shelf.
  • The filter menu drills into Environment (Menu + OverlayPortal).
  • Rows open their thread.
  • Idle for 70 s with no runaway commits.
  • No red box, and no useMemoCache or React errors in the Metro log.
  • Not verified: swipe and long-press on rows. adb input on this emulator registers both as taps on main as well, so I couldn't drive them. The swipe file (thread-swipe-actions) is not in this layer.

Renders while loading each screen (measure-renders --route, median of 3, same base and device):

No measurable change in the mount-and-settle window.

Review follow-up

  • Thread list actions (archive/settle/snooze/wake/regenerate title/move) await commands and clear their in-flight keys inline; no .finally.
  • wrappedRenderRef is gone. Inspector registration reads the pane through useEffectEvent.
  • On device: Home renders on the rebuilt client, and swipe actions weren't exercised.

Device: Pixel 9 API 36 emulator on nucbox-1, client rebuilt from perf/mobile-compile-8 (the old one lacked the T3FoldPosture native view), Metro and an isolated seeded server on cups.

Home, the adaptive workspace layout and the overlay portal were skipped by the React Compiler. So was the thread list's action hook.

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval β€” This XL change rewires memoization, focus subscriptions, gesture callbacks, and thread action lifecycles across several production mobile surfaces. Unresolved concerns about state retention and effect-event usage make targeted human validation appropriate.

πŸ“ Walkthrough

Mobile home and workspace components remove memoization from calculations and callbacks. The changes also update retained state initialization, timestamp refreshes, and cleanup after rejected thread actions. The compiler coverage test removes bailout allowances for the affected files.

Changes: Mobile compiler compatibility

Layer / File(s)Summary
Home list state and rendering
apps/mobile/src/features/home/HomeScreen.tsx
HomeScreen creates list calculations, handlers, and item-rendering values during render. It stores a full timestamp in state and refreshes it on focus, each minute, and when a snooze timer fires.
Home options and thread actions
apps/mobile/src/features/home/home-list-options.ts, apps/mobile/src/features/home/useThreadListActions.ts
The options context and action handlers are no longer memoized. If awaited operations reject, some in-flight keys, pending order, or drop-busy state may not be cleared.
Workspace layout and resizing
apps/mobile/src/features/layout/AdaptiveWorkspaceLayout.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/layout/workspace-inspector-pane.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/layout/workspace-pane-divider.tsx
Workspace layout calculations and handlers are created during render. Inspector registration and divider callbacks use effect events. Inspector width updates use .set().
Lazy state initialization and compiler coverage
apps/mobile/src/components/ui/OverlayPortal.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/home/WorkspaceConnectionTitle.tsx, apps/mobile/src/reactCompilerCoverage.test.ts
OverlayPortal and StatusFadeIn use lazy state initialization. The compiler coverage test removes bailout allowances for the changed files.

official React useEffectEvent documentation only call inside Effects invocation contract

πŸ’‘ Result:

1The official React docs define the contract this way:

3- Call `useEffectEvent` itself at the top level of your component or custom Hook.
4- Call the function it returns only inside an Effect (`useEffect`, `useLayoutEffect`, or `useInsertionEffect`) or another Effect Event in the same component.
5- Don’t call it during render or from an event handler, and don’t pass it to another component or Hook. ([react.dev](https://react.dev/reference/react/useEffectEvent?utm_source=openai))

7The docs also note that Effect Event functions have intentionally changing identities; they should not be added to Effect dependency arrays. ([react.dev](https://react.dev/reference/react/useEffectEvent?utm_source=openai))

Do not call Effect Events from gesture handlers.

The pan gesture invokes handleResizeStart, handleResize, and handleResizeEnd through runOnJS outside a React Effect. These callbacks are useEffectEvent handlers, which React restricts to Effects. Replace them with stable JavaScript callbacks backed by a committed ref for current props.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟑 Minor | ⚑ Quick win

Create swipeRowActivation once with a useState initializer.

createSwipeRowActivation() returns a stateful object. It holds activeKeys, listTouches, pendingKeys and the subscriber listeners. The object now persists between renders only because the compiler caches the call.

If the compiler does not compile this file, every render creates a new object. SwipeableScrollGateProvider then gets a new activation. Touches that are still in progress and pending activations are lost. Row subscriptions point at the old object.

This PR already uses the useState initializer for the same problem in WorkspaceConnectionTitle, OverlayPortal and StatusFadeIn. Use it here too.

Keep the focus subscription stable.

useEffectEvent does not stabilize the callback passed to useFocusEffect. When this hook rerenders while focused, React Navigation cleans up that callback and runs the new one. The cleanup deactivates the inspector, and setup registers it again. This adds inspector state updates on routine rerenders, contrary to the comment. Stabilize the focus callback; keep syncRegistration for changes to the renderer. (github.com)
