Pull request overview
This PR introduces a new usermessage client subsystem that fetches “presentation-ready” user messages from the Lantern Cloud endpoint, persists per-account message state (pending + seen), and exposes the functionality to the UI via new IPC routes and backend plumbing.
Changes:
- Add a durable per-user message store (pending/seen, expiry handling, bounded retention) plus tests.
- Add a polling
Servicewith backoff/jitter, lifecycle controls, and acknowledgment flow plus tests. - Wire the subsystem into the backend and IPC (new endpoints + client methods) and add locale/platform normalization.

I took a look at the fake-clock and backoff suggestions. I think we should keep the current approach for now. The fake clock keeps polling, retry, cancellation, and wake tests deterministic, while |
I think both concerns can be addressed without the clock abstractions: the wake behavior can be added to the shared backoff helper, and the retry schedule can be tested as a pure delay calculation. Wake. Expanding func (b *Backoff) Wait(ctx context.Context) {
b.WaitOn(ctx, nil)
}
func (b *Backoff) WaitOn(ctx context.Context, wake <-chan struct{}) {
...
select {
case <-ctx.Done():
case <-wake:
case <-time.After(wait):
}
}A nil Timing. The clock exists so the service test can assert the retry schedule from outside the loop. If the ladder lives in func (b *Backoff) WaitOn(ctx context.Context, wake <-chan struct{}) {
if ctx.Err() != nil {
return
}
wait := b.nextDelay(rand.Float64())
select {
case <-ctx.Done():
case <-wake:
case <-time.After(wait):
}
}
func (b *Backoff) nextDelay(random float64) time.Duration {
b.n++
wait := b.baseWait * time.Duration(b.n*b.n)
jitter := 0.8 + 0.4*random
return min(b.maxWait, time.Duration(float64(wait)*jitter))
}Now the schedule is assertable with exact equality, no sleeping and no clock: backoff := NewBackoff(time.Second, time.Minute)
for _, expected := range []time.Duration{1 * time.Second, 4 * time.Second, 9 * time.Second} {
require.Equal(t, expected, backoff.nextDelay(0.5))
}
backoff.Reset()
require.Equal(t, time.Second, backoff.nextDelay(0.5))
require.Equal(t, 800*time.Millisecond, NewBackoff(time.Second, time.Minute).nextDelay(0))
require.Equal(t, time.Minute, NewBackoff(time.Minute, time.Minute).nextDelay(1))That's the same shape as With the curve covered there, the service test only has to prove it delegates — // service.go
type failureBackoff interface {
WaitOn(ctx context.Context, wake <-chan struct{})
Reset()
}
var newFailureBackoff = func() failureBackoff {
return common.NewBackoff(initialFailureBackoff, maxFailureBackoff)
}
// service_test.go
func useFailureBackoff(t *testing.T, backoff failureBackoff) {
t.Helper()
previous := newFailureBackoff
newFailureBackoff = func() failureBackoff { return backoff }
t.Cleanup(func() { newFailureBackoff = previous })
}
type recordingBackoff struct{
calls chan string
}
func (b *recordingBackoff) WaitOn(context.Context, <-chan struct{}) { b.calls <- "wait" }
func (b *recordingBackoff) Reset() { b.calls <- "reset" }Then the test asserts For the successful poll interval, return the delay from the fetch and assert the returned value —
