Problem and scope

The Russian Android build reported a collapsed chat layout when opening the keyboard during localization. This PR adds Russian Android UI text and preserves that build's chat layout fix. It does not claim that an unmodified upstream build has the same chat bug.

This replaces #96 and #99 with an Android-only implementation. No iOS/Swift/native iPhone implementation is changed. Shared Compose resources and the persisted language setting are used by Android's existing UI.

Changes

  • Add complete Russian Compose resources, Android language selection, and translated Android file-manager controls.
  • Localize known extension UI messages and composer menu titles only when Russian is selected. Preserve extension identifiers, stored option values, action arguments, and diagnostic details.
  • Retain the Russian build's adjustNothing setting for the reported keyboard/chat collapse.
  • Document the changed Android functions with KDoc and add tests for Russian language persistence and locale-aware text.

Validation

  • All 1,087 Russian resource strings are present; formatting placeholders match the source resources.
  • Android APK assembly succeeded.
  • Shared JVM unit tests: 148 passed.
  • Android localization tests: 4 passed.
  • No Android device is connected locally. Keyboard behavior on a phone, including older Android versions, remains to be verified.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added Russian as a selectable app language, with automatic detection for Russian device settings.
    • Added Russian translations for chat labels, extension messages and settings, and file-manager controls, menus, and dialogs.
    • Extension-provided text is localized when a translation is available; code, action data, and unknown text remain unchanged.
  • Improvements
    • Updated the app’s soft-keyboard layout behavior.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds Russian as a supported app language, supplies Russian shared strings, and localizes recognized extension text. The Android file manager now uses string resources for controls and accessibility labels. The activity soft-input mode changes from adjustResize to adjustNothing.

Changes

Russian Language and UI

Layer / File(s) Summary
Russian language support and resources
shared/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/zhousl/aether/data/AppSettings.kt, shared/src/androidMain/kotlin/com/zhousl/aether/data/PlatformDefaults.android.kt, app/src/main/res/xml/locales_config.xml, shared/src/commonMain/composeResources/values-ru/*, shared/src/commonMain/composeResources/values/strings.xml, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/SettingsScreen.kt, shared/src/commonTest/kotlin/com/zhousl/aether/data/AppSettingsSerializationTest.kt
Russian is added to app language selection and locale detection. Android defaults select Russian for Russian device locales. Russian shared strings and language display labels are added, with a serialization and regional-tag test.
Extension text localization
app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/ExtensionLocalization.kt, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/theme/Theme.kt, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/SettingsScreen.kt, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/AetherExtensionUi.kt, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/ConversationUi.kt, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/AetherViewModel.kt, app/src/test/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/ExtensionLocalizationTest.kt
The theme provides the selected language to descendants. Recognized extension text, settings labels, composer titles, and notification messages use Russian translations; unknown text and non-Russian content remain unchanged. Tests cover translations and preservation of details and custom titles.
File-manager labels and accessibility text
shared/src/commonMain/composeResources/values/strings.xml, app/src/main/java/com/zhousl/aether/ui/AndroidAlpineFileManagerScreen.kt
The file manager uses string resources for controls, menus, dialogs, empty states, errors, editor actions, and accessibility labels. Existing file operations and UI actions remain unchanged.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c8792

Russian users may see an English label in a closed dropdown field in extension settings. Keyboard behavior on older Android devices has not been tested on a device, so check it before release.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🔵 Low · up to c8792

The inspected localization paths preserve extension action identifiers, arguments and permissions. The main concern is conditional rollback compatibility: an iOS build incorporating the shared language change could reset unrelated preferences when downgraded to a version without Russian support.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · reliability · inferred: A shared/iOS build initialized with Russian can persist the new enum in its full settings snapshot. Downgrading that installation to the inspected prior reader can default the entire snapshot, not just the unsupported language. This makes localization rollback non-field-preserving for unrelated connection, model and runtime preferences. Android’s dedicated language key, separately stored provider configurations and legacy preference overlays limit the exposure. The consequence is inferred from source, not reproduced against an older binary.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated exposure is installation-local: extension presentation and file-manager controls on Android, plus conditional settings rollback in a rebuilt shared/iOS consumer. The inspected changes do not establish a new remote entrypoint or greater extension action authority.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Localized extension text remains presentation data rather than dispatch authority. Action calls retain extensionId, action and original arguments; app.notify retains its constant acknowledgement instead of returning translated text.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • observed — Shared settings recovery overlays legacy language, theme, prompt, reasoning, skill-selection and privacy preferences, while provider configurations are loaded independently. These mechanisms contain the inferred downgrade failure; a full credential wipe or authorization bypass should not be inferred from snapshot fallback alone.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Keep language-value evolution independent of whole-settings decoding, or explicitly restrict rollback to compatible readers, so an unsupported locale cannot default unrelated configuration.

Request native-speaker review of the Russian strings.

Key-parity checks do not verify grammar or tone. Some strings are literal (for example, "Интернет" as a tool label and "Кэшированный"). Ask a native Russian speaker to review this file and shared_extensions.xml.

Localize the selected dropdown label too.

This line localizes the option titles in the dropdown list. The selectedLabel value at lines 3207-3215 still uses the raw label string. In Russian, the closed field shows the English label, and the open list shows the Russian label.

Pass the label through localizedExtensionText when you compute selectedLabel.

Proposed fix (lines 3210-3215)
-                    ?.optString("label")
-                    .orEmpty()
+                    ?.optString("label")
+                    .orEmpty()
+                    .let { localizedExtensionText(it) }
