Operator (note 2897): "notes shouldn't have a title field." The concept of a NAME
stays — search results, export filenames and the command palette all need one —
but nothing is typed into it any more. `display_title` is now the first non-empty
line of the body, falling back to the first checklist item.

That fallback is what step 2 bought, and the reason this could not go first: a
checklist had no body to be named from, so the title was its only name. Now every
note has a body, and a note that is only a checklist is named by its first item.

Gone everywhere: the column and note_revisions.title (0026), the field on the
core's Note/NoteCreateInput/NoteRevision and its SQLite columns (user_version 7),
`normalize_title`, the wire field, the FFI record and `NoteEdit::Title` /
`ClearTitle`, the web editor's "Title (optional)" input and the card's <h3>, and
the Android title field in both the compose sheet and the editor.

**The search vector had to be rebuilt, not just left alone.** `notes.search_vector`
is a STORED GENERATED column whose expression names `title` — Postgres refuses to
drop a column another generated column depends on. It is dropped and recreated over
`display_title` at weight A, which keeps the original intent: a note's NAME ranks
above the rest of its body.

**An imported title becomes the note's first body line.** Keep notes carry one, and
so does any ThoughtSync export taken before this. Dropping it would silently lose
text someone wrote; folding it in puts it exactly where a name now lives, so the
note arrives named as it was. Skipped when the body already opens with that line,
so re-importing an export this code produced doesn't stack duplicates.

Two smaller things fell out. The Android editor loses its bold first field — one
weight throughout, because the first line is the note's name but not a different
KIND of text, which is most of step 4 arriving early. And `ClearTitle`'s
justification comment moved to `ClearRemindAt`, which is now the surviving example
of why NoteEdit is a list rather than a struct of options.

Protocol note corrected to say what actually shipped: v2 is "no kind, no title",
one bump for the pair.

Verified with the local Rust gate this time, not by CI: fmt, clippy and 116 tests
all green before pushing. It caught four things — orphaned serde attributes where
fields were removed, a `wire::Preview.title` I deleted by mistake (a link preview
still has one), nine retention fixtures inserting a dropped column, and four
rustfmt diffs.

Two more from the step-2 removals:

**Two unused Kotlin imports** — `FilterChip` (the Note/List switch) and
`Icons.Filled.Create` (the "switch to a note" icon), both orphaned when their
callers went. ktlint treats them as errors.

**`server_info_tolerates_unknown_and_absent_fields`** pinned
`sync_protocol_version: 1` as a literal, so bumping the protocol to v2 made it
fail for a reason that has nothing to do with what it tests. It is about unknown
FIELDS; the versions now come from `CLIENT_PROTOCOL_VERSION`, like every other
test in that file already did.

The bigger fix is the habit. `ci-requirements.md` has documented since
2026-08-18 that the operator authorised running fmt/clippy/test against the CI
image locally, and I had not been doing it. All three now pass here — 116 tests,
clippy clean, fmt clean — and every Rust failure in this milestone so far would
have been caught by them in under a minute instead of by CI, several commits
downstream. Noted in ci-requirements so the next session doesn't relearn it: a
removal is exactly the change that looks too safe to check.

**`snapshot_revision` was deleted with `create_titled`** (bc22f8e). I sliced the
function out by scanning to the next `pub fn`, and the private `fn` sitting
between them went too. Nothing in Python or TypeScript compiles Rust, so it sat
undetected until the first lane that does. Restored verbatim.

**An orphaned serde attribute** in push.rs: removing `pub kind: Option<String>`
left its `#[serde(skip_serializing_if)]` behind, which then stacked onto the
next field's. That failed the derive, which is why three follow-on errors all
said `Change: Serialize is not satisfied` — one cause, four messages.

**An unbalanced `</div>`** in NoteEditor.vue, orphaned when the "Links / Linked
from" footer was cut. `vue-tsc --noEmit` type-checks the SCRIPT block and never
parses the template, so the typecheck lane passed it and `vite build` caught it
two workflows later. Worth remembering: a green typecheck says nothing about
template structure.

I also pushed step 2 without waiting for ad21eac to go terminal, which is what
let the Rust break travel a commit further than it should have.

Each fix comes with the check that would have caught it: a scan for stacked
serde attributes and called-but-undefined fns across every .rs, and a tag
balance pass over every .vue. Both are clean.

`kind` was never a type. A plain TEXT column with no enum and no CHECK behind
it, compared against a hardcoded ("text", "list") tuple in six places;
`note_items` was always an ordinary child table keyed by note_id; serialization
already emitted `items` whatever the kind; and the Android editor already
toggled between the two losslessly, saying so in a comment. The storage has
modelled "a body plus optional checkable items" the whole time. This deletes the
gates that forbade it.

Every surface: the create/PATCH gates, the ?kind= filter and its saved-filter
facet, the three import/export branches, the column (alembic 0025); the core's
`kind` field, its SQLite column (user_version 6), the sync wire, push and pull;
the FFI records and `NoteEdit::Kind`; and on Android `NoteKind.kt`, `DraftKind`,
the compose sheet's Note/List switch, and the branches in the card, the editor
and the chrome.

The editor's note⇄list toggle becomes "Add a checklist" — on both the web and
Android. It is not a conversion any more: nothing moves, nothing is swapped, the
body stays exactly where it is and the note gains somewhere to put items. The
card renders both, in order.

Two things that fell out of the merge rather than being aimed at:

- The Keep importer was DISCARDING `textContent` whenever a note also had
  `listContent`, because the target could only hold one. Both survive now, and
  the test says so.
- Markdown export wrote the body OR the checklist. It writes both.

Protocol goes to v2, floor included: dropping a field a v1 client sends and
expects back is breaking. `title` leaves in step 3 and lands in the same
generation, so it needs no further bump. This is the change that will make the
0.1.227 build on the operator's phone refuse to sync — the in-app updater is
independent of the handshake and remains the recovery path.

The V1 SQLite schema deliberately KEEPS the kind column. V1 is the historical
schema and every later block alters it, so removing it there would make a fresh
database run V1 without the column and then v6's DROP COLUMN against a column
that never existed — "no such column: kind" on every new install.

bvandeusen 81695fa0c8 android: update the app from the server it syncs with (2727, M12 step 7)
Desktop (Tauri) / Windows installer (cross-compiled) (push) Successful in 3m8s

Closes M12. The phone can now notice that its server has a newer build and
install it, instead of the operator copying an APK to a device by hand.

**A PackageInstaller session, not an install intent.** The obvious route —
ACTION_VIEW on the APK — is exactly what on-device install heuristics are tuned
against, and it is what produced the "bypassing Android security" warning on
Minstrel (Scribe note 2437). It also never tells the OS that this app is the
legitimate updater of its own package, and it returns nothing: a failed install
is indistinguishable from someone dismissing the dialog.

The session says who is doing what, and on Android 12+ declares no user action
required — which, with UPDATE_PACKAGES_WITHOUT_USER_ACTION, removes the
confirmation entirely on the UPDATE path. Only there: Android will not let an app
quietly put a NEW package on a device, which is right. It also only applies when
the new build carries the same signing key as the installed one, which is why
signing had to land first.

Two things from that research deliberately NOT done: `setRequestUpdateOwnership`
was chased and turned out to be a red herring, and REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES is
not the differentiator either — Mihon declares it too. The mechanism was the
whole difference.

**The outcome comes back.** `commit` takes an IntentSender and the result lands
at `UpdateReceiver`, so a failure can be shown rather than guessed at, and
STATUS_PENDING_USER_ACTION is handled — that is the ordinary path below API 31
and still possible above it, since the OS is entitled to ask anyway. Someone
declining is reported as no error at all: calling a deliberate choice a failure
is how an app sounds broken when it is not.

**The network work stays in Rust.** Two FFI additions — `clientUpdate` and
`downloadClientUpdate` — because the device token lives in the core, and pulling
it into Kotlin to make an HTTP call would spread the one secret this app holds
across two languages for nothing. The core also owns the comparison, so the rule
"version CODE decides, never the name" lives in the layer that has to get it
right for every surface.

The download is streamed to disk, not buffered: 55 MiB in memory on a phone is
how an update gets killed halfway through. It lands in `update.apk.part` and is
renamed only once size and sha256 both match, so an interrupted download can
never be mistaken for a finished one. The digest is not a trust anchor — the
signature is, and Android checks it — but it catches a truncated transfer before
the installer is bothered with it. The advertised path is joined to the base URL
this device is LINKED to rather than followed as given, so a server cannot point
the download at a host nobody agreed to.

**Updates are linked-only, and it says so.** An unlinked install has no update
path, so it gets one sentence explaining where updates come from rather than a
Check button that silently finds nothing — the same lesson as the desktop's
unlink copy (issue 2110). And the "install unknown apps" grant is asked for
BEFORE downloading, so nobody spends 55 MiB to be told no.

Every Android API here was read out of `android-36/android.jar` with javap
first, and the two new FFI methods out of freshly generated bindings, rather
than recalled: `suspend fun clientUpdate(installedVersionCode: Long):
ClientUpdate?` and `downloadClientUpdate(destPath: String)`.

Also fixes `check-symbols.py`, which reported four false positives on
`UpdateOutcome.Result` — its object-member index collected functions and
properties but not nested TYPES, and a data class inside an object is an
ordinary member.

bvandeusenandClaude Opus 5 0a7480cf9b core: extract the store and sync engine into a shared crate (M12 step 1)

Android becomes a native Kotlin client over this same code (Scribe note 2730), so
the local store and sync engine stop being modules of the desktop app and become
`thoughtsync-core`, a crate with no UI framework in it at all.

This is a move, not a rewrite, and the measurement is why: every file in local/
and sync/ already carried ZERO Tauri references — 4,980 of 6,372 lines. The
coupling was 473 lines of command shim, which stays behind in the desktop crate
as src/commands/. Kept as git renames so history follows the files.

The desktop imports them under their old names (`use thoughtsync_core::{local,
sync}`) so every call site reads exactly as before. What moved is where they
live, not what they are.

Two things a workspace changes that are easy to miss, both caught before pushing:

[profile.release] now lives at the workspace ROOT. Cargo silently ignores
profiles declared by a non-root member — leaving it in the desktop crate would
have dropped lto/strip/opt-level from every release build with only a warning.

And a workspace shares ONE target dir, so the bundles moved from
desktop/src-tauri/target to target/. Thirteen references across publish-release,
debundle-graphics, verify.sh, package-prebuilt and the workflow now point there.
Pinning target-dir back would have been the smaller diff, but the Android lane
also produces Rust artifacts and they do not belong under desktop/.

Also retires the Tauri Android lane in the same push rather than leaving a path
that is being replaced: gen/android, android.yml and docs/android-dev.md are
gone, the mobile_entry_point attribute with them, and the lib drops to rlib —
staticlib/cdylib existed for Tauri mobile, and the .so Android loads will be
built from the core crate instead. Rule 22, no parallel path.
