fix(device): paste from the context menu into the iOS simulator - #30933
Pasting into the iOS simulator from the Device panel did nothing. Right click > "Paste" never reached the screen, and Cmd+V left the field empty.
Repro: open an iOS simulator in the Device panel, focus a text field in Safari, copy some text on your machine, paste.
Change
Two things were broken:
the menu "Paste" fires on whatever element holds the selection, not the focused screen, so the panel never saw it. Now the panel listens on the document while the screen has focus, and the composer redirect leaves those pastes alone
iOS hands an empty pasteboard to the Cmd+V that serve-sim sends unless the app in front has the pasteboard privacy grant. Now the panel grants pasteboard to the foreground app once (new pasteboard value for the existing setPermission action) before it sends the text
Also skips pastes bigger than the 4 MB message limit serve-sim enforces, since those close the input socket.
Scope and approval
No issue for this. It's a small fix for an obvious bug: paste into the iOS simulator doesn't work at all today.
Question:
In a browser, right click on the screen opens the browser's own image menu, which has no "Paste". Should the panel get its own right click menu with "Paste"? It'd read the clipboard, so it only works on https or localhost and the browser asks for permission the first time. I can add it here or in a follow-up
Verification
Real app (dev build, Chrome), iOS 26 and 27 simulators, Safari test page, pasteboard grant reset before each run, same Cmd+V paste of "pasted from Windows".

after
Also added a browser test for the menu paste path and a server test for the pasteboard grant. The right click menu itself can't be driven from Playwright, so the menu path is covered by the test, not the screenshot.
The change adds pasteboard permission support and sends non-empty text through the iOS device stream. The device view handles paste events while focused, requests permission for the foreground app, and prevents paste redirection to the chat composer from elements inside [role="application"].
The DevicePermission schema accepts pasteboard. The iOS permission map uses that service, and a test checks the resulting simctl privacy grant command.
iOS text transport packages/client-runtime/src/device/stream.ts, packages/client-runtime/src/device/stream.test.ts
The stream sends non-empty iOS text as a paste message when the encoded packet is no larger than 4 MiB. The test checks that empty text sends no packet.
The device view handles paste events when its screen is focused, requests pasteboard permission for the foreground iOS app, and sends the text. Browser tests check paste messages, permission actions, and paste/key input ordering. Composer redirection excludes elements inside [role="application"].

A failed pasteboard grant can leave pasted text unavailable, and a tap during the grant can send text to the wrong field. Resolve these paste failures before merging.

Explanation
The title "fix(device): paste from the context menu into the iOS simulator" matches the main change. The PR makes the Device panel handle menu Paste on iOS simulator screens. It also grants the pasteboard permission to the foreground app before sending text. The title is specific, follows conventional commit form, and names the affected platform and feature.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template. It has Problem, Change, Scope and approval, Verification, and AI disclosure content. The Problem section gives the observed failure and repro steps. The Change section explains both root causes and the fixes, plus the 4 MB size guard. The Scope section says no issue exists and argues the fix is small and obvious. Verification lists the environment, before/after screenshots, and the tests added. The AI disclosure names the model. Two weaknesses remain. The Scope section does not link a triaged issue or maintainer approval, and it gives only a brief justification for the small-fix exemption. The Verification section also does not mention whether the new tests were run. The description is mostly complete, so the check passes.

Replace the expect.poll wait around the input.pastes packet assertion with
vi.waitFor, keeping the same expected requestId and text values.
The vi.mock factory reads the module-level runAction mock, but setup() does not clear its call history. Reset the shared mock at the start of setup() so this assertion remains isolated from other calls.

- Around line 173-174: Update the paste flow in DeviceStreamView so it calls
client.sendText only when foregroundApp.id is known and allowPaste confirms the
grant succeeded. Handle a missing foreground app or failed grant by notifying
the user, and preserve the requested text by never sending it after either
condition.
- Line 156: Update the paste permission cache around pasteAllowedApp so a cached
grant is rechecked or invalidated when permission is reset or revoked; keep
skipping setPermission only while the grant is known to remain valid.
