fix(web): pick the 3D device body from the simulator's hardware type by Kaloyanes · Pull Request #27932 · pingdotgg/t3code

Kaloyanes · 2026-10-31T01:35:03Z

Split from #26884 as asked there: this PR is only the renamed-simulator fix. The new model catalog is a separate PR.

A renamed simulator shows the generated slab in 3D view even when we ship an Apple model for its hardware. For example, an iPhone 18 Pro simulator named "Termisio Snapshots" gets the box. The viewer picked the model by the display name (/^iPhone 18 Pro$/), and the device hub only reports the name the user typed.

Fix. On iOS hosts, DeviceHubOperations.list runs xcrun simctl list -j once, through the host's run, so SSH hosts work too. It maps each simulator UDID to its hardware name and sends that as a new optional DeviceSummary.model. The web viewer resolves from model ?? name. If simctl fails, devices still list, just without model. EAS and Simlock hosts don't go through this path and keep matching on the name.

Simulator device types can carry a memory suffix (iPad Pro 13-inch (M5) (16GB)), so the existing iPad rule now accepts it. No new bodies or name mappings are added here.

Evidence

Same renamed simulator ("Termisio Snapshots", type iPhone 18 Pro), web dev build, 3D view.

Before (main)	After

After this change the network panel shows iphone-18-pro.glb loading. On main, no GLB is requested.

Checks:

vp test run packages/client-runtime/src/device/model.test.ts apps/server/src/device/DeviceHubOperations.test.ts: 10 passed. Covers a renamed simulator getting its hardware name, an unknown device type, a simctl failure still listing devices, and the memory-suffixed iPad type. The test runner only answers simctl list -j, so a different invocation fails.
vp test run apps/web/src/components/device/DeviceStreamView.browser.test.tsx: 6 passed.
vp run check:changed: format, lint, knip, typecheck, graphql, and react compiler pass.

Not checked: an SSH host in the app; it uses the same run as local. Android is unchanged because resolveDeviceModelId stays iOS-only. Mobile has no 3D viewer.

Model: Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code (T3 Code).

A renamed simulator (for example "iPhone (clean)") lost its 3D body because the panel matched on the user's simulator name. The server now reads each simulator's device type from `xcrun simctl list -j` and reports it as `DeviceSummary.model`; the web panel prefers it over the name. Done with Claude Opus 5.5 in T3 Code.

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 44d16fa

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Simulator presentation now follows hardware type rather than a renamed device label. The read-only lookup retains existing fallback behavior and introduces no material operational or data risk.

Walkthrough

The server adds matching hardware model names to simulator records. The web device view uses the model name for device selection and rendering, with the device name as a fallback. Model resolution accepts an optional memory suffix for the iPad Pro 13-inch (M5).

Changes: Simulator Hardware Models

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Add model names to simulator listings `packages/contracts/src/device.ts`, `apps/server/src/device/DeviceHubOperations.ts`, `apps/server/src/device/DeviceHubOperations.test.ts`	`DeviceSummary` adds an optional `model` field. The server reads `simctl` device-type names and matches them to simulator UDIDs. If the lookup fails, simulators remain listed without model data. Tests cover known and unknown device types, and command failures.
Resolve hardware names for device rendering `packages/client-runtime/src/device/model.ts`, `packages/client-runtime/src/device/model.test.ts`, `apps/web/src/components/device/DeviceStreamView.tsx`	The device view uses `deviceModel` when provided, then `deviceName`, for model, keyboard, and shape selection. The iPad Pro 13-inch (M5) name match accepts an optional memory suffix. Tests cover iOS model mappings and null results.
Pass model names to device views `apps/web/src/components/device/DeviceWorkspace.tsx`, `apps/web/src/components/preview/ThreadPreviewMiniPlayer.tsx`, `docs/user/devices.md`	The workspace and mini player pass the matched device model to `DeviceStreamView`. The device guide states that renaming a simulator does not change the represented hardware type.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Change: Bug fix

pingdotgg/t3code#25707: The PR gives the separate simctl model lookup a timeout and fallback, but does not address the issue’s remaining hub-list errors or device retention.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 8bcfd

Device listings retain their fallback when hardware-model lookup fails. No identified issue needs resolution before merge; the renamed-simulator appearance can still be checked on a Mac.

Note

Written by claude-opus-5-5 on behalf of Maria

merged current main into the contributor branch again without rebasing (8bcfda0d). main's device list now times out the hub request and takes platformAvailable(platform) instead of androidAvailable. the conflict in DeviceHubOperations.list keeps main's timeout path and runs the simctl hardware-model lookup after it. the new test now passes platformAvailable to match. the earlier 5 second cap on the simctl lookup is unchanged.

verified at 8bcfda0d through blacksmith-check:

vp run check:changed against current main: format, lint, both knip passes, graphql, typecheck of 36 packages, tests and react compiler checks passed.
DeviceHubOperations, DeviceService, DeviceMultiHost and client-runtime device model tests: 74 passed.

real simulator verification is still unavailable on a linux vm (no xcode or mac device host). the renamed-simulator 3d body and mini-player flow still need a check on a mac with the ios simulator. the contributor's before/after evidence is in the pr description.
