Problem

On mobile Thread settings, users can mark models as favourites, but the existing favourites view was only reachable through the provider filter submenu. The model picker should expose the established favourites capability directly from the model filter menu.

Change

Add Favorites as a top-level filter action in the native iOS and Android Thread settings model menus. Provider-specific filters remain under Provider, while the existing favourite model filtering and persistence behavior is unchanged.

The follow-up commit also keeps Favorites as a top-level action on the alternate iOS toolbar path.

Scope and approval

This is a small, focused discoverability fix for an existing model-favourites capability. It does not add a new workflow, change defaults, or alter persistence; it only makes the existing filter directly reachable.

Visual evidence

iPhone 17 Pro simulator, iOS 26.3.

Before — Favorites is not present in the top-level model filter menu.

Favorites was previously reachable only through Provider:

After — Favorites is available directly in the model filter menu.

Selecting it narrows the list to the starred model:

https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5abd3148-d3a3-47b6-a552-1014f28d4527

The recording shows Favorites narrowing the list to the starred model, then All providers restoring all three models. Long pauses were removed. Android and the alternate iOS presentation were not captured.

Verification

  • pnpm exec vp test run apps/mobile/src/features/threads/thread-settings-sheet-state.test.ts — passed, 1 test file and 5 tests.
  • git diff --check — passed.
  • pnpm --filter @t3tools/mobile exec tsc --noEmit — not clean because of pre-existing unrelated errors in ThreadFeed.tsx and dependent mobile files (onLoadThrough, jumpToMessageId, and markdown link icon exports).
  • CodeRabbit's minor follow-up finding was addressed in 910c2aa.
  • Branch is now fully up to date with current main; no merge conflicts.
  • Current head: 33d78bc833

Review status

  • Macroscope approved this PR.
  • All review threads are currently resolved.
  • The pre-existing mobile typecheck errors are unrelated to this change.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at db1645b

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This single-file change makes the existing model Favorites filter directly accessible from mobile filter menus while preserving the existing filtering behavior and defaults. Its runtime impact is limited to menu presentation and routing the selection to the established filter setter.

Walkthrough

The mobile thread filter menus now offer Favorites as a separate action from provider filters. Selecting Favorites sets the provider filter to the Favorites sentinel.

The menus add Favorites as a standalone action and exclude the Favorites sentinel from the Provider submenu. The Android and iOS toolbar actions set the provider filter to the Favorites sentinel when selected.

Explanation

The title "fix(mobile): expose model favorites filter" follows conventional commit style and matches the main change. The raw summary shows Favorites is now a separate filter action in the model-filter menus, and the Provider submenu excludes the favorites sentinel. The title names the mobile scope and the specific user-facing change, so it is clearly related to the changeset.

Expose Favorites on the fallback iOS menu.

When usesNativeMailSearchToolbar is false, this filterMenu is not rendered. The fallback Toolbar at Line [1396] still places Favorites inside the Provider submenu. Users on that iOS path do not receive the new top-level action.

Add Favorites as a sibling Toolbar.MenuAction and remove it from the Provider submenu, or share the menu definition across both iOS paths.

As per coding guidelines, verify every applicable client surface, including alternate entry points.

  • Merge branch 'main' into fix/mobile-model-favorites33d78bc
Synced from GitHub

Status update: branch is now fully up to date with main (head 33d78bc833). CodeRabbit's minor follow-up was addressed in 910c2aa, and that thread is resolved. Macroscope approved this PR, and CI is green. If maintainers want screenshots of the top-level Favorites action in the native menus, I can help capture them.

Note

Verified in a real dev environment

No changed behavior could be exercised on this Linux Boat VM. This is an unsuccessful verification attempt, not a runtime approval.

Read the description, complete diff, discussion, and inline review at head 33d78bc8337ac53da21f2a267de8fb81f7abaf4c. The PR is open, and its three listed commits are authored by JamesOBrien2, with no commits by juliusmarminge or t3dotgg. GitCafe maps it to https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/pulls/24512. The diff changes only the native Thread settings model-filter menus: top-level Favorites on Android and both iOS menu paths, with Favorites removed from Provider submenus.

Not verified

The original behavior on github/main and the PR behavior in a running native client are unverified. Neither native iOS nor Android was available through the supported Device workflow. The repository mobile verification skill explicitly requires stopping verification when device access is unavailable. No worktree, dependency install, dev server, project, thread, or Codex gpt-6.1-sol turn was started. A browser with a mobile viewport would not exercise these native menus.

Top-level Favorites selection, checked state, favorite filtering/persistence, Provider and All providers restoration, legacy-model filtering, and both iOS presentations remain unverified. No new screenshots or recording were captured; existing PR media was not treated as evidence from this run. No source changes or pushes were made. Re-run on a device-enabled environment with a native client to establish runtime correctness.

Thanks, JamesOBrien2, for the earlier work making Favorites easier to find. #32887 by RVZO6 addresses the same menu change and also allows combining favorites with a provider filter. This PR has been inactive for over seven days, and the affected menu has changed on main since its base, so I’m closing it in favor of the newer PR.
