#!/bin/sh
# An ai-server with invented sessions in it, for driving the phone UI.
#
# The import screen lists whatever Claude Code has on the machine, and in
# this VM that is real agent transcripts -- so exercising *delete* against
# the ordinary server means deleting somebody's conversation, and exercising
# *import* means starting a real `claude --resume` on the owner's account. Both
# are the wrong price for looking at a list.
#
# So this starts a second server that can see neither. `$HOME` is pointed at
# a sandbox directory, which is the only thing the importer's own script
# consults (`$HOME/.claude/projects/*/*.jsonl`), and the config and session
# data live there too. What it lists is invented here, and deleting all of
# it costs nothing.
#
# Three things are deliberately shared with the real server, because the
# installed APK is built against them: the TLS certificates (the app pins
# that CA and would refuse a fresh one) and the port. Run it while the real
# server is down.
#
# Usage:
#   ./ui-sandbox.sh              start it, print the enrolment command
#   ./ui-sandbox.sh stop         stop it
#
# Environment: AI_SANDBOX_ROOT, AI_SANDBOX_TOKEN, AI_SANDBOX_PORT,
# AI_SANDBOX_DELAY -- the server's own `--delay`, which is what makes a
# spinner visible at all -- and AI_SANDBOX_SPAWN_DELAY, which holds an
# import open for that many seconds. On loopback every request is back in
# under a millisecond, so a busy state that is correct is still a busy state
# nobody can see.
