Major architectural changes:
1. SHARED KMP BRIDGE (core/data/radio/):
- RadioClientAccessor: Platform-agnostic interface for SDK RadioClient
- SdkRadioController: Shared RadioController impl (replaces per-platform copies)
- SdkStateBridge: Shared SDK→repository bridge (event dispatch, node sync)
- SdkPacketHandler: Thin SDK-backed PacketHandler for MQTT/XModem/History
2. DESKTOP SDK CUTOVER:
- DesktopRadioClientProvider: TCP + Serial transport support
- Removed DirectRadioControllerImpl (old desktop radio path)
- Desktop now shares the same SDK bridge code as Android
3. DEAD INFRASTRUCTURE DELETION (~5,100 LOC removed):
- PacketHandlerImpl, MeshDataHandlerImpl, MeshRouterImpl
- CommandSenderImpl, MeshActionHandlerImpl, MeshConfigFlowManagerImpl
- MeshConnectionManagerImpl, AdminPacketHandlerImpl
- ServiceBroadcasts (Android intent-based pub/sub)
- NodeRepositoryImpl (Room-backed, replaced by SdkNodeRepositoryImpl)
- 8 trivial UseCases (SetLocale, SetTheme, ToggleAnalytics, etc.)
- All associated test files for deleted impls
- Deleted interfaces: AdminPacketHandler, CommandSender, MeshActionHandler,
MeshConfigFlowManager, MeshConnectionManager, MeshRouter, ServiceBroadcasts
4. NEW FEATURES:
- NodeMetadataEntity + Room migration 38→39 (persistent favorites/notes)
- AppMetadataRepository (clean access to node metadata)
- MessagePersistenceHandler (focused rememberDataPacket for StoreForward)
All three targets compile clean: :app:compileGoogleDebugKotlin,
:desktop:compileKotlin, :core:data:jvmTest passes.

:app
Overview
The :app module is the entry point for the Meshtastic Android application. It orchestrates the various feature modules, manages global state, and provides the main UI shell.
Key Components
1. MainActivity & Main.kt
The single Activity of the application. It hosts the shared MeshtasticNavDisplay navigation shell and manages the root UI structure (Navigation Bar, Rail, etc.).
2. MeshService
The core background service that manages long-running communication with the mesh radio. While it is declared in the :app manifest for system visibility, its implementation resides in the :core:service module. It runs as a Foreground Service to ensure reliable communication even when the app is in the background.
3. Koin Application
MeshUtilApplication is the Koin entry point, providing the global dependency injection container.
Architecture
The module primarily serves as a "glue" layer, connecting:
core:*modules for shared logic.feature:*modules for specific user-facing screens.
