window startup: fixed-life splash, loading indicator, icon retry - #318
Merged

Conversation
The splash waited for the later of its own animation and the active app's first navigation, capped at 8s, so an ordinary catalog fetch or page load read as a stuck splash. It was also waiting on the wrong signal: didFinish fires when the document loads, not when the app has drawn anything, so the wait could end on a blank page anyway. The splash now lives exactly as long as its animation and then goes. The content area says "loading" for itself: an opaque overlay with a spinner while that tab has a navigation in flight, and while the catalog has not resolved an app to mount yet. Webviews also get the shell's background as their under-page color, so a tab opening for the first time no longer flashes white. Measured on this machine, warm: catalog fetch 0.59s, first tab to didFinish 0.17s. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Icons were fetched once per app at launch, so a single bad moment cost every tab its icon for the life of the window. It happened twice today: all five apps came back with the same undecodable 153264-byte body, and the tabs wore single letters until relaunch. A failed icon is now retried at 1s, 3s and 9s, which outlasts a service still coming up as the window opens. On failure the log carries the status, content type, final url and first line of the body, so the next occurrence names whatever served it -- the byte count alone said only that it was not an image.

Handle failures after navigation commit.
didFailProvisionalNavigation handles only pre-commit failures. If a committed navigation fails, didFinish does not run. No implemented callback removes the app from loadingApps or sets loadFailures, so ContentArea keeps showing LoadingOverlay instead of FailureOverlay.
Add webView(_:didFail:withError:) and apply the same state updates.

Two things the window gets wrong while it is starting up.
The splash waited on the network
It dismissed on the later of its own animation and the active app's first
navigation finishing, capped at 8s. So an ordinary catalog fetch plus page
load read as a stuck splash, and it was waiting on the wrong signal anyway:
didFinishfires when the document loads, not when the app has drawnanything, so the wait could end on a blank page.
The splash now lives exactly as long as its animation and then goes, whatever
the network is doing. Content that is not ready says so itself: the content
area shows an opaque overlay with a spinner while that tab has a navigation in
flight, and while the catalog has not yet resolved an app to mount.
Webviews also get the shell background as their
underPageBackgroundColor, soa tab opening for the first time no longer flashes white before it paints.
Measured on this machine, warm: catalog fetch 0.59s, first tab (board) to
didFinish0.17s, against a 1.3s splash floor. So the splash was not reallywaiting on the page here, which is the other reason to stop coupling them.
A failed tab icon stayed failed
Icons are fetched once per app at launch, so one bad moment cost every tab its
icon for the life of the window. It happened twice today: all five apps came
back with the same undecodable 153264-byte body and the tabs wore single
letters until relaunch, while the same URL fetched with the same API returns a
771-byte SVG that decodes fine.
A failed icon is now retried at 1s, 3s and 9s, which outlasts a service still
coming up as the window opens. The failure log carries the status, content
type, final url and the first line of the body, so the next occurrence names
whatever served it; a byte count alone said only that it was not an image.
What served those 153264 bytes is still unidentified, and it does not
reproduce warm.
Worth knowing
A page that hangs rather than fails now shows the spinner until WebKit's own
timeout turns it into a failed provisional navigation and the existing "Can't
reach" overlay takes over. That is slower than the old 8s splash cap, but it
is the honest state: nothing is ready to show.
Tray suite green. The find bar self-check still passes 12/12.
