Close the SDD cycle: verified pass with warnings (0 critical), slice 1 cancelled with SDK evidence, slices 2-3 shipped, post-verify dispose fix landed. The native-alarms capability spec is promoted to openspec/specs/ with the corrected FGS requirement. Phase 5 on-device QA remains the pending human gate.

Proposal: Alarm Volume Ramp & Device-Volume Immunity
Intent
An alarm must ring regardless of device media volume. Today the alarm hands off within 1-3s from the volume-immune native USAGE_ALARM player to the Flutter media-stream player, which is fully governed by media volume — so media volume 0 = silent alarm for nearly the whole ring. A manifest bug (systemExempted instead of alarm, no FOREGROUND_SERVICE_ALARM) can also silently kill the native start on Android 14+. Device-volume immunity for the full ring was never actually built; it must be built now.
Scope
In Scope
- Manifest fix:
PluriWaveAlarmService→foregroundServiceType="mediaPlayback|alarm"+ declareFOREGROUND_SERVICE_ALARM. Restores already-approved design (app-quality-and-native-alarmsD1.1 / S1-R1). - Ring-scoped media-volume override (Kotlin-owned): on ring start capture
STREAM_MUSICvolume, force an audible reference level; player ramps 5% →alarma.volumen(existing Dart ramp); restore original volume on EVERY exit (dismiss, snooze, dispose, service teardown, best-effort on kill). - Fade-in dedup: gate native + Dart ramps so only one drives audible volume across handoff.
Out of Scope
- Full native-only audio for the whole ring (exploration option b) — future follow-up.
- Single-sourcing the fade-in constant/curve shared by Kotlin+Dart — noted as debt.
Capabilities
New Capabilities
- None.
Modified Capabilities
native-alarms: alarm ring MUST be immune to device media volume for its full duration (not just the pre-handoff window); FGS type/permission corrected; fade-in single-driver across handoff.
Approach
Override lives in Kotlin (MainActivity/PluriWaveAlarmService via a new method on the existing pluriwave/alarm_scheduler MethodChannel) because AudioManager.setStreamVolume has no Flutter plugin here and MainActivity already owns audio channels. Dart drives the ring lifecycle; pantalla_alarma_sonando.dart calls capture+override at ring start and restore from the already-centralized exit points (_silenciarAudio → dismiss/snooze; dispose). Restore must be idempotent and provably scoped: normal radio listening and phone-call ducking (ServicioAudioSession, S3-R1) stay untouched — the override only fires while a ring is active. Existing 5%→target Dart ramp is kept; the native ramp is gated to avoid a second audible driver at handoff.
Affected Areas
| Area | Impact | Description |
|---|---|---|
android/.../AndroidManifest.xml:57 |
Modified | FGS type mediaPlayback|alarm + FOREGROUND_SERVICE_ALARM permission |
android/.../MainActivity.kt |
Modified | New alarm_scheduler methods: capture/override/restore STREAM_MUSIC |
android/.../PluriWaveAlarmService.kt |
Modified | Restore-on-teardown safety net; gate native fade-in vs Dart |
lib/pantallas/pantalla_alarma_sonando.dart |
Modified | Invoke override at start; restore in _silenciarAudio/dispose |
lib/servicios/servicio_alarmas_android.dart |
Modified | Dart wrapper for the new channel methods |
lib/app.dart |
Modified | Coordinate override with early _prearrancarAudioAlarma |
Risks
| Risk | Likelihood | Mitigation |
|---|---|---|
| Kotlin/manifest not compilable by agent | High | On-device verify on Android 14+ is a MANDATORY human gate (CC-R1/R2) |
| App killed mid-ring leaves volume overridden | Med | Best-effort restore in service teardown + onDestroy; document residual gap |
| Override leaks into normal radio playback | Med | Scope strictly to ring; idempotent restore; assert ducking path untouched |
| Double fade-in still audible at handoff | Low | Single-driver gate; test the handoff window |
Rollback Plan
Per-slice and independent. Revert the manifest line to restore prior FGS type. Behind a guard so restore always runs even if override failed (no worse than today). If regressions appear in normal playback, disable the override call in pantalla_alarma_sonando.dart — manifest fix stands alone.
Dependencies
- Android 14+ device for the mandatory on-device verification of the manifest fix.
- Confirm from user whether
app-quality-and-native-alarmsSlice 1 (manifest) was ever verified on a real device (apply-progress deviation note is missing).
Success Criteria
- Manifest declares
mediaPlayback|alarm+FOREGROUND_SERVICE_ALARM; native service starts on Android 14+. - With device media volume at 0, the alarm still rings and ramps 5% →
alarma.volumen. - Original media volume is restored after dismiss, snooze, and dispose.
- Normal radio listening and phone-call ducking are unaffected.
- Only one fade-in driver is audible across the native→Flutter handoff.
- No new user-visible strings (no l10n across 13 locales required).
