Problem

Small mobile thread views each ran their own timer or listener effect: every visible elapsed-time label started its own 1s interval (plus an AppState listener), each Copy button kept a reset timeout, each thread row armed a timeout for its snooze gate, each SVG markdown image refetched and reparsed on every remount, and each PR badge copied its answer into a shared snapshot map from a post-render effect.

Change

  • use-visible-second-clock reads the shared secondTick (gated on focus and useAppActive) instead of a per-component interval. Each label still subscribes its own AppState listener through useAppActive; only the interval is shared. useGitActionProgress already goes through it.
  • CopyTextButton derives "copied" from a deadline (useDeadlinePassed) instead of a timeout ref plus an unmount cleanup effect.
  • ThreadListV2Row's snooze gate computes its expiry from the message timestamp and re-reads the clock once past it via a new useNowAfter in lib/clock.ts (shared deadline store), instead of a per-row setTimeout effect.
  • ThreadMarkdownImage loads SVGs through an Atom.family keyed by URI Only a parsed document is kept (60s idle TTL), so a feed row scrolled back into view reuses it; a failed load is dropped with its last reader, so the next mount fetches again, as on main. A load failure comes from the atom's result.
  • useThreadPr memoizes its presentation on the summary, so the returned pr keeps its identity across row renders, and writes PR summaries into the bounded snapshot map from the summary query's onAnswer handler (rememberBounded, tested), keyed by pull request rather than by thread.

What this improves

  • No bug fix claimed.
  • Sync removed: per-row clock and timeout effects replaced by shared stores; the PR snapshot map is no longer written from render-driven effects.
  • Fewer timers and renders: N visible elapsed labels share one 1s tick instead of N intervals; SVG images no longer refetch/reparse on remount within 60s.

Behavior changes

  • Elapsed-time labels tick on the shared wall-clock second (floored) instead of an interval aligned to mount time.
  • Parsed SVG documents are cached per URI for 60s after their last row unmounts. Failures are not cached.
  • PR snapshots are keyed by environment + project + repository + number, so two threads linked to the same PR share one snapshot. A thread whose PR reference goes away no longer deletes its old entry (it is not shown; the map stays bounded at 500).
  • The snooze gate re-checks 1ms past the grace window instead of 50ms past it.

Effects

CopyTextButton 1 -> 0, ThreadMarkdownImage 1 -> 0, thread-list-v2-items 1 -> 0, use-visible-second-clock 2 -> 0, use-thread-pr 1 -> 0, lib/clock 0 -> 0.

Verification

  • vp test run apps/mobile/src/state/use-thread-pr.test.ts apps/mobile/src/lib: 57 files, 693 tests pass.
  • vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck (2 packages), tests all pass.
  • ThreadMarkdownImage.test.tsx: a failed SVG load is fetched again on the next mount while a parsed one is reused (fails on the previous head, passes now).

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — This production mobile refactor changes shared timing, SVG loading/caching, and pull-request snapshot behavior across several runtime paths. It also adds a new oxlint suppression in apps/mobile/src/lib/clock.ts, which requires human review under the repository’s review policy.

Walkthrough

The mobile thread changes update SVG loading and rendering, replace several component-managed timers with deadline or shared-clock state, and cache pull-request summaries by environment and pull-request identity.

Changes: Thread markdown SVG rendering

Layer / File(s)Summary
SVG loading and rendering
apps/mobile/src/features/threads/ThreadMarkdownImage.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/ThreadMarkdownImage.test.tsx
SVG documents are decoded or fetched, parsed, and cached by URI. The view renders the parsed AST and handles SVG failures alongside existing image failures. Raster images continue to use expo-image. The test checks retry after a failed fetch and reuse after a successful load.

Thread timing state

Layer / File(s)Summary
Deadline snapshots and UI integrations
apps/mobile/src/lib/clock.ts, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/thread-list-v2-items.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/CopyTextButton.tsx
useNowAfter returns a time snapshot tied to a deadline. Snooze eligibility uses the latest user-message timestamp, and copy feedback derives from the successful copy time and a 1200 ms deadline.
Shared second-clock subscription
apps/mobile/src/features/threads/use-visible-second-clock.ts
The hook reads the shared secondTick store and subscribes only when enabled, focused, and the app is active.

Pull-request summary cache

Layer / File(s)Summary
Bounded summary cache
apps/mobile/src/state/thread-pr-presentation.ts, apps/mobile/src/state/use-thread-pr.ts, apps/mobile/src/state/use-thread-pr.test.ts
rememberBounded moves an updated key to the newest position and evicts older entries beyond the limit. The hook caches summaries in a shared map bounded to 500 entries, keyed by environment and pull-request identity. Linked presentations retain precedence; otherwise, the hook uses query data or the cached summary. The test checks reordering and eviction.

Do not retain failed SVG loads for the document TTL.

If an SVG request fails temporarily, the URI-keyed atom retains that failure for its 60-second idle TTL. A row that unmounts and returns during that period can show “Image unavailable” without retrying, whereas the previous component loaded again on mount. Retain successful documents, but let failed loads retry when the URI is shown again. Effect documents both the memoized Atom.family identity and idle-TTL retention. (effect.website)
