fix(mobile): handle image drops in the Android composer - #25573
On Android 11, dragging an image from Files onto the message input focuses the editor but adds no attachment. The existing expo-paste-input receive-content listener is installed only on Android 12+, leaving supported Android 7–11 without that image-drop path.
Change
Handle image drops in the native Android composer, acquire the drag's URI read grant, and deliver the images once through the existing attachment callback. Read-only and disabled inputs reject drops; ordinary text drops retain native insertion. Mixed or unreadable image clips are rejected without inserting URI text.
Resolve the MIME type reported for content URIs, which often have no filename extension, and convert unsupported image formats to JPEG through the existing image pipeline. Remove the temporary JPEG after processing, including rejected attachments, and keep converted previews backed by image data. Keep existing attachment limits, previews, and removal behavior. Document dragging into the Android message input in split screen. Remove the stale useLayoutEffect import in ThreadComposer so the current upstream composer passes CI lint.
Scope and approval
This is a focused obvious-bug fix for an existing attachment interaction missing on supported Android versions, submitted under the small-fix exception in CONTRIBUTING.md. It is limited to the message input. The separate iOS counterpart is #25532.
Verification
Native reproduction: Android 11 / API 30 AOSP tablet emulator, T3 Code Dev built from upstream 3f9448747bb8, isolated backend, Files and T3 Code in split screen. Select a PNG in Files, hold it, drag to the message input, and release. Baseline: no attachment. Fixed: exactly one image preview and inline attachment, with the send action enabled. Repeated with a typed prompt: text preserved. Removing the attachment worked.
The recordings show actual cross-app native drags driven through Android emulator touch events. No drop callbacks or attachment state were injected.
Native tests:apps/mobile/android/gradlew -p apps/mobile/android :t3-composer-editor:testDebugUnitTest --tests '*ComposerPasteTest' --max-workers=2 -PreactNativeArchitectures=arm64-v8a — 20 passed. The new drop cases run on Robolectric API 24 and 36 and cover image batches, locked/disabled inputs, mixed/unreadable clips, and text drops. The same suite had 9 failures before the native fix.
Image conversion tests:vp test run apps/mobile/src/lib/composerImages.test.ts — 10 passed, including temporary JPEG cleanup after successful attachment and oversized rejection; the 2 original content-URI format cases failed before the conversion fix.
Checks:vp run check:changed upstream/main, ktlint, Detekt, and git diff --check passed. The Android native client built and installed successfully.
Runtime gesture verification used Files on Android 11. Physical devices, gallery apps, and Android 12+ runtime gestures were not exercised; API 36 coverage above is a native unit test.

Route native image drops through the existing attachment flow on supported Android versions, keeping URI permissions available for asynchronous reads. Resolve content URI MIME types and convert unsupported formats before attaching.
Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — This is a localized Android composer bug fix that routes explicitly dropped images through the existing attachment pipeline and adds MIME handling for Android content URIs. Unrelated text drops and existing attachment constraints remain unchanged, with targeted native and conversion tests added.

Walkthrough
The mobile composer now accepts image drag-and-drop on Android and converts pasted images using reported MIME types when available. Android guidance and tests cover drag-and-drop behavior. Tests also cover image conversion and temporary-file cleanup.
SelectionAwareEditText sends image URIs to the image listener when the editor is enabled and editable and every clip item resolves to an image. Tests cover rejected drops and native text insertion. Composer guidance describes dragging images in split screen.
Pasted-image MIME conversion and cleanup apps/mobile/src/lib/composerImages.ts, apps/mobile/src/lib/composerImages.test.ts
Conversion uses a reported image/* MIME type when available and otherwise infers the type from the URI. Unsupported types are rendered as JPEG. Temporary rendered files are deleted. Tests cover extensionless JPEG and HEIC URIs, plus rendered-file cleanup when the image exceeds the size limit.
The changed Android image-drop and pasted-image conversion paths have no established merge-blocking risk.

Explanation
The title "fix(mobile): handle image drops in the Android composer" follows conventional commit format and names the main change: image drop handling in the Android composer. The changeset adds native drag-and-drop image handling in T3ComposerEditorView, related tests, MIME-type resolution and JPEG conversion in composerImages.ts, a docs note, and a stale import cleanup in ThreadComposer. The title covers the primary change and omits only secondary details, which is expected.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the template. It has Problem, Change, Scope and approval, and Verification sections. The Problem section states the Android 11 image-drop gap and gives reproduction context. The Change section explains the native drop handling, MIME resolution, JPEG conversion, and temporary-file cleanup. The Scope section cites the small-fix exception and links the iOS counterpart. The Verification section lists the emulator reproduction, native and TypeScript test results, lint checks, and before/after evidence, and it states what was not tested. The description also states the commit-style title and the agent/model used, as the template requests. The only gaps are minor: the Scope section does not link a triaged issue or maintainer approval, and it relies on the small-fix exception instead. That exception is explained, so the check passes.

thanks @12ya. i kept your native drop handling, activity-scoped URI grant, all-item validation, MIME conversion, and JPEG cleanup. i merged current main without rebasing and added one small fix: all pasted previews now use the retained image data, so they do not depend on a drag grant after activity destruction. the existing regression test failed before this fix and passes afterward. the final diff is five files; the stale import cleanup is already on main.

blacksmith vp run check:changed 323d9611ff49521357fdc205f667614602ec46b6 passed format, lint, knip, mobile/scripts typechecks, and all 10 image tests. three conversion tests fail against main's implementation.
all 27 CI checks are green. two independent code reviews approve this head. the earlier bot cleanup finding is addressed; coderabbit's latest review was quota-limited.
unverified here: native cross-app grants, android 12+ receive-content interaction, preview after activity recreation, removal, and sending. device access is disabled in this environment, with no connected android device. i did not rerun native unit tests or capture new native screenshots/video. the original android 11 evidence remains in the description; it is not evidence for this head.
@12ya, one nonblocking follow-up: supported PNG/JPEG resizing through fitComposerImage already leaves rendered cache files untracked on main. i left that existing cleanup gap outside this takeover.
the code and CI are ready for review, but native runtime verification remains required before calling this fully verified. no labels, PR state, or original description were changed.
no changed runtime behavior could be exercised on this boat vm. this is an unverifiable result, not a pass.
i read the description, five-file diff, commits, discussion and inline review replies at head 8a9a6e6c6055d7226ae5c54cb06978db27d66c62. the pr is open, with no pr commits authored by @juliusmarminge or @t3dotgg. git.cafe maps github https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/pulls/25573 to https://git.cafe/pingdotgg/t3code/pulls/25574. cafe reports 27 successful checks, zero pending and zero failing. those are existing ci results, not runtime proof from this attempt.
runtime prerequisite transcript:
$ adb devices -l
List of devices attached
[no devices]
$ t3 device_list
Agent device access is turned off for this environment.
the test-t3-mobile skill requires stopping verification when device access is unavailable and prohibits switching automation systems. no dev server was started, no code was changed, and no screenshot or recording was captured. existing pr media was not treated as proof for this attempt.
Not verified
main's original android image-drop failure was not reproduced. the pr head was not runtime-tested. native cross-app image drops, uri grants, exactly-once delivery, extensionless content-uri mime handling, jpeg conversion and cleanup, previews after activity recreation, attachment removal, text preservation and ordinary text drops, locked/disabled rejection, android 12+ receive-content interaction, and sending an attachment through codex gpt-6.1-sol remain unverified. ios and physical devices were not exercised.
the changed implementation is in the native android editor and mobile image pipeline. a playwright/chrome web drop would not exercise it. completing this pass requires enabled android device access and matching main/head native split-screen drag checks followed by a real provider send. no branch checkout/install or main/head server run was attempted after the device prerequisite failed.
