Codex review: needs maintainer review before merge. Reviewed June 9, 2026, 8:28 PM ET / 00:28 UTC. Summary PR surface: Source +107, Tests +72. Total +179 across 2 files. Reproducibility: not applicable. as a PR review: the patch adds diagnostics around existing iMessage drop/startup paths. The contributor supplied a live after-fix monitor proof for the visible inbound-drop diagnostic plus focused tests for the startup failure branch. Review metrics: none identified. Merge readiness Overall follows the weaker of proof and patch quality, so missing proof can cap an otherwise strong patch. Rank-up moves:

Security Review detailsBest possible solution: Land the diagnostics-only patch after maintainer review accepts the default-log privacy/noise tradeoff and normal CI or equivalent scoped proof is clean. Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue? Not applicable as a PR review: the patch adds diagnostics around existing iMessage drop/startup paths. The contributor supplied a live after-fix monitor proof for the visible inbound-drop diagnostic plus focused tests for the startup failure branch. Is this the best way to solve the issue? Yes, this is the best narrow fix shape: log privacy-safe metadata at the existing drop/retry decisions instead of changing iMessage delivery policy, retry classification, or transport behavior. AGENTS.md: found and applied where relevant. Codex review notes: model gpt-5.5, reasoning high; reviewed against 48ec58a5844f. Label changesLabel changes:

What the crustacean ranks mean
Shiny media proof means a screenshot, video, or linked artifact directly shows the changed behavior. Runtime, network, CSP, and security claims still need visible diagnostics. How this review workflow works
