SDK changes tracking

TutaBridge depends on a few changes to the Tuta Rust SDK (tuta-sdk/rust/sdk, vendored as the tuta-repo submodule). To stay able to switch back to Tuta's upstream at any time, every SDK change is kept as its own single-commit branch off upstream/master, each independently reviewable / mergeable by Tuta. They are combined only in the tutabridge-integration branch, which is what the submodule actually checks out.

• Fork (our branches live here): spartanz51/tutanota
• Upstream: tutao/tutanota
• Integration branch (sum of the changes below): tutabridge-integration

Rule: never accumulate unrelated SDK changes on one branch. One concern = one branch = one commit, rebasable on upstream/master.

Branches

Branch	Summary	Upstream PR	Fork PR	Submitted to upstream	Merged	Live-tested
sdk-load-multiple	EntityClient/CryptoEntityClient.load_multiple (batch entity loading)	tutao#10854	—	yes (open)	no	yes (sync 500 mails)
sdk-blob-element-reading	BlobFacade.load_blob_element + MailFacade.load_mail_details_blob (read MailDetailsBlob)	tutao#10870	—	yes (open)	no	yes (body decrypt over IMAP)
sdk-2fa-session	Interactive 2FA: initiate_session, authenticate_with_second_factor_totp, is_second_factor_pending, cancel_create_session	tutao#10871	—	yes (open)	no	yes (full TOTP login)
sdk-folder-system	Rebuild FolderSystem tree (system/custom/nested), add MailSetKind Label/Imported/Scheduled + accessors	—	spartanz51#4	no (held)	no	yes (custom folders listed + read over IMAP)
sdk-move-mails	MailFacade.move_mails (move to an arbitrary folder via MoveMailService)	—	spartanz51#5	no (held)	no	yes (IMAP MOVE between folders)
sdk-event-bus	WebSocket EventBusClient (/event?…) — realtime entity updates with catch-up via groupsToLastEventBatchIds, plus observable WsState	—	—	no (held)	no	yes (live-tested over Phase 2/3 bridge integration, 26 unit tests)
sdk-mail-set-entry-id	mail_set_entry_id::{construct, deconstruct} — encode/decode MailSetEntry._id (4-byte truncated timestamp + 9-byte raw Mail id, base64url-no-pad)	—	—	no (held)	no	yes (consumed by the bridge realtime delta optimisation; 8 unit tests, TS test vector asserted)
sdk-inline-decrypt	CryptoEntityClient::decrypt_inline_and_parse<T> — decrypt an entity payload arriving inline via the event bus, with no REST round-trip; EntityClient::parse_raw helper	—	—	no (held)	no	yes (consumed by the bridge realtime path to skip load_mail on every Mail UPDATE / new mail; 3 integration tests against the live decryption fixture)

Notes per branch

sdk-load-multiple

Additive utility, mirrors TS EntityClient.loadMultiple. Maintainer (charlag) asked why it's submitted (not user-facing) and about LLM use; answered honestly.

sdk-blob-element-reading

Additive. Mirrors TS blob reading + doBlobRequestWithRetry/tryServers. Returns MailDetails from load_mail_details_blob (matches TS).

sdk-2fa-session

Refactors create_session to delegate to initiate_session; reuses the existing parse_session_id; no clientIdentifier change. Additive otherwise.

sdk-folder-system

Held — not submitted upstream. It modifies the existing FolderSystem struct, which upstream marks as WIP (// this structure should probably change rather soon), so they likely want to design it themselves. Faithful port of FolderSystem.ts. Submit only if the other PRs get traction and a maintainer signals appetite — align the API with them first. Needed locally regardless for custom/nested folder support in the bridge. Live-tested in the bridge: custom folders are listed and read over IMAP (the custom-folders bridge change keys everything by folder id).

sdk-event-bus

Held — not submitted upstream. Port of src/common/api/worker/EventBusClient.ts: WebSocket client for /event?…, reconnect/backoff matching the TS close-code semantics, catch-up of missed batches via the groupsToLastEventBatchIds query param. Entity-update batches are decoded from the server's untyped wire format into a small typed EntityUpdateBatch (the other message kinds stay as raw serde_json::Value since the bridge does not need them yet — consumers can apply the SDK's type machinery if they want a typed view). Exposes a WsState (Stopped/Connecting/Connected/Reconnecting) via state() -> watch::Receiver<_> so UIs can render the connection lifecycle live. New dependency: tokio-tungstenite configured to reuse the existing rustls stack; gated behind the existing net feature. 26 unit tests cover URL building, wire parsing, reconnect logic and state-broadcast behaviour. Live-tested as part of the bridge realtime sync (Phase 2/3).

sdk-mail-set-entry-id

Held — not submitted upstream. New module mail_set_entry_id exposing construct(receive_date, mail_id) -> CustomId and the inverse deconstruct(custom_id) -> Result<(DateTime, GeneratedId), _>. Mirrors the TypeScript helpers in src/platform-kit/meta/EntityUtils.ts — a MailSetEntry._id.element_id is a 13-byte buffer (4 bytes of timestamp shifted right by 10 bits, then 9 raw bytes of the referenced Mail.element_id) encoded as base64url-no-pad. Knowing the encoding lets a realtime consumer extract the mail id directly from a MailSetEntry CREATE/DELETE event without an extra REST round-trip. 8 unit tests assert the TS test vector verbatim plus round-trip and four error shapes. Live-tested in the bridge realtime delta path (Phase 2 of the realtime work).

sdk-inline-decrypt

Held — not submitted upstream. CryptoEntityClient::decrypt_inline_and_parse<T> takes the still-encrypted JSON delivered inside a WebSocket EntityUpdate.instance and walks the existing decryption pipeline locally (JsonSerializer::parse → CryptoFacade::resolve_session_key → EntityFacade::decrypt_and_map → InstanceMapper::parse_entity), producing the same typed entity as a full REST load would, with no network call. Returns Ok(None) when the session key cannot be resolved — a transient state (post-reply attachment key propagation in the TS) that should fall through to a REST load rather than surface as an error. EntityClient::parse_raw is exposed as a thin public wrapper around the previously-private JsonSerializer so the new method can feed an arbitrary deserialised JSON object into the same parsing pass load uses internally. The MockEntityClient mock declaration is extended for the new accessor. Three integration tests reuse the captured download_mail_test/mail.json fixture as a simulated event-bus payload — the happy-path test asserts the inline decryption yields the same Mail (subject, recipientCount) that the REST-backed download_mail_test extracts. Live-tested in the bridge realtime path (Phase 3 of the realtime work).

Rebasing on a newer upstream

cd tuta-repo
git fetch upstream
# rebase each SDK branch on the new master (resolve only if upstream touched
# the same files — so far it hasn't)
git rebase upstream/master sdk-load-multiple
git rebase upstream/master sdk-blob-element-reading
git rebase upstream/master sdk-2fa-session
git rebase upstream/master sdk-folder-system
git rebase upstream/master sdk-move-mails
git rebase upstream/master sdk-event-bus
git rebase upstream/master sdk-mail-set-entry-id
git rebase upstream/master sdk-inline-decrypt
# rebuild the integration branch from the rebased branches
git checkout -B tutabridge-integration upstream/master
git cherry-pick sdk-load-multiple sdk-blob-element-reading sdk-2fa-session sdk-folder-system sdk-move-mails sdk-event-bus sdk-mail-set-entry-id sdk-inline-decrypt

When an upstream PR merges, drop that branch from the cherry-pick list — the integration branch shrinks until (ideally) it equals upstream/master.
