Capaccino Diagnostic Workflow

Use this checklist before proposing code changes.

1) Build sanity

Run:

swift build -c release

If build fails, fix compile errors first.

2) Process sanity

Run:

pgrep -fl Capaccino || true

If multiple processes are running, note this as a likely cause for inconsistent behavior.

3) Config file sanity

Run:

CONFIG="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Capaccino/mappings.json"
ls -l "$CONFIG" || true
cat "$CONFIG" || true

Validate:

  • JSON is valid.
  • Triggers begin with expected prefixes (for example :hello).
  • Mappings are not empty.

4) Permission and status sanity

Check app UI status expectations:

  • Status: Permission Required means Accessibility access is missing.
  • Status: Listening means event tap is active.
  • Status: Idle means app is running but not actively tapping input.

When permission is missing, direct user to:

  • System Settings -> Privacy & Security -> Accessibility
  • Enable the exact bundle currently being launched
  • Relaunch and use "Reload Expansions"

5) Licensing sanity

Current implementation facts:

  • Free mode is capped at 5 expansions per app session.
  • Pro mode depends on saved keychain license key plus instance id.
  • Offline hardcoded activation key currently exists in source.

If behavior conflicts with these facts, inspect Sources/Capaccino/Licensing.swift and call out mismatch clearly.

6) Report diagnosis

  • Report root cause candidates in priority order.
  • Separate confirmed facts from assumptions.
  • Recommend the smallest corrective action first.
