Document that the biometric/PIN prompt is an app-launch UI gate rendered only by MainActivity and SignerActivity. It does not protect signing: the ContentProvider IPC and NIP-46 relay paths sign in the background based solely on the permission database, and auto-accept rules sign silently without triggering the prompt.

# CLAUDE.md

|
|
|
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
|
|
|
|
## Build & development commands
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./gradlew assembleDebug # debug build
|
|
./gradlew assembleRelease # release build (requires signing keystore)
|
|
./gradlew ktlintCheck # lint check (also runs on every git commit via pre-commit hook)
|
|
./gradlew ktlintFormat # auto-fix lint issues
|
|
./gradlew test --no-daemon # unit tests (also runs on every git push via pre-push hook)
|
|
./build.sh # builds both offline and free release variants to ~/release/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Git hooks are auto-installed via the root `build.gradle.kts` preBuild task — no manual setup needed.
|
|
|
|
## Build flavors
|
|
|
|
| Flavor | Purpose |
|
|
|--------|---------|
|
|
| `free` (default) | Online variant with full networking (OkHttp, Coil, relay connectivity) |
|
|
| `offline` | No network stack; use `BuildFlavorChecker.isOfflineFlavor()` to guard network code |
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
### Request ingestion — three paths
|
|
|
|
External apps and relays reach the signer through three distinct paths:
|
|
|
|
1. **`nostrsigner://` Intent** → `SignerActivity` → parsed by `IntentUtils` → shown as bottom sheet
|
|
2. **ContentProvider IPC** → `SignerProvider` → synchronous signing via `runBlocking`
|
|
3. **NIP-46 relay events** (kind 24133) → `NotificationSubscription` → `EventNotificationConsumer` → `BunkerRequestUtils`
|
|
|
|
All three paths converge on `Account.sign()` / encrypt/decrypt methods backed by `NostrSignerInternal`.
|
|
|
|
### Global state — `Amber.kt`
|
|
|
|
`Amber` is the Application class and acts as the DI container. Key singletons it owns:
|
|
|
|
- `applicationIOScope` — `CoroutineScope(Dispatchers.IO + SupervisorJob() + exceptionHandler)`, used for all background work
|
|
- `client: NostrClient` — the Quartz Nostr relay client
|
|
- `notificationSubscription` — keeps the NIP-46 filter alive in the background
|
|
- `profileSubscription` — active only in the foreground (paused in background to save battery)
|
|
- `isStartingAppState: MutableStateFlow<Boolean>` — set to `true` during `runMigrations()`; code that must wait for startup calls `isStartingAppState.first { !it }`
|
|
- `settings.killSwitch` — when true, all relays are disconnected; checked before every relay operation
|
|
|
|
### Per-account isolation
|
|
|
|
Every `npub` gets its own:
|
|
- `SharedPreferences` file (`prefs_${npub}`)
|
|
- `AppDatabase` (`amber_db_${npub}`) — apps + permissions
|
|
- `LogDatabase` — operation logs
|
|
- `HistoryDatabase` — request history
|
|
|
|
All databases are lazy-loaded and cached in `ConcurrentHashMap`s in `Amber`. Account data (including decrypted keys) is loaded via `LocalPreferences.loadFromEncryptedStorage()` and cached in `LargeCache`.
|
|
|
|
### Permission system
|
|
|
|
Permissions are stored in `ApplicationEntity` + `ApplicationPermissionsEntity` (Room). Each permission entry has:
|
|
- `rememberType` — auto-accept, auto-reject, or always-ask
|
|
- `acceptUntil` / `rejectUntil` — time-bound grants
|
|
- `kind` — event-kind-specific rules
|
|
|
|
Before showing the approval UI, all three ingestion paths query the database; if a matching auto-accept rule exists, signing proceeds silently.
|
|
|
|
### Biometric / PIN lock is UI-only
|
|
|
|
The biometric/PIN prompt (`useAuth` / `usePin` in `AmberSettings`, configured in `SecurityScreen`) is **only an app-launch UI gate**, not a signing gate. It is rendered by `BiometricAuthScreen`, which is invoked exclusively from the two UI entry points — `MainActivity` and `SignerActivity` — to unlock the app's screens before any approval bottom sheet is shown.
|
|
|
|
It does **not** protect the signing operations themselves:
|
|
|
|
- **ContentProvider IPC** (`SignerProvider`) and **NIP-46 relay events** (`EventNotificationConsumer` → `BunkerRequestUtils`) never touch `BiometricAuthScreen`, `Biometrics`, `useAuth`, or `usePin`. They sign in the background based purely on the permission database.
|
|
- When an auto-accept rule matches, all three paths sign silently **without** triggering the biometric/PIN prompt — including `nostrsigner://` intents, which auto-finish before the UI is interacted with.
|
|
|
|
In other words, the lock controls who can open and navigate the app UI; it does not stand between a request and `Account.sign()`. Authorization for automatic signing is governed solely by the permission system (`rememberType` / `acceptUntil` / `kind`).
|
|
|
|
