rzen 0ad93a09da Save workouts to Apple Health with live watch metrics and a post-workout summary
Watch sessions now run an HKLiveWorkoutBuilder: heart rate and active
energy are collected live (shown in an in-workout HUD), saved to Health
as a real HKWorkout on completion, and carried back to the phone as
WorkoutMetrics on the workout document. Phone-only workouts get an
estimated Health workout (MET x bodyweight x duration) after a 10s
debounce that a late-arriving watch session cancels; a launch sweep
backfills workouts completed within the last day. Dedupe is keyed on
metrics.healthKitWorkoutUUID plus the metrics source.

Splits gain an activity type (strength, functional, HIIT, core, cardio,
cycling) that categorizes the Health workout and picks the MET value.
A post-workout summary sheet (duration, calories, avg/max HR, HR zones,
total volume) fills in live and is also shown on completed workouts.
Weights can now display in lb or kg (display-only relabel), synced to
the watch over the existing application context.

WorkoutDocument schema 1->2 (metrics are irreplaceable, so older apps
must quarantine rather than strip them); cache schema 2 rebuilds the
SwiftData store with the new metric columns. Deleting a workout in the
app intentionally leaves its Health record in place.

# Workouts
A workout tracking app for iPhone and Apple Watch. Build workout splits, run
sessions, and track your progress — with your data stored as plain JSON files in
your own iCloud Drive.
## Key Features
- **Workout splits** — organize exercises into reusable routines with custom
colors, icons, and an activity type (strength, HIIT, cardio, …). Start with
built-in starter splits (Upper Body / Core / Lower Body) generated from a
bundled exercise catalog.
- **Exercise library** — a bundled catalog of starter exercises (bodyweight and
machine-based) to populate your splits.
- **Run a workout** — start a session from a split, then tap an exercise to run it
as a paged flow: a **Ready?** lead-in, count-up work phases, count-down rests, and
a **Finish** page — mirroring the Apple Watch. Swipe a row to mark it complete, or
swipe to edit its plan (sets/reps/weight or duration) and notes. End a workout early
from the **⋯** menu — **Save** keeps your progress (remaining exercises are marked
skipped) or **Discard** removes it.
- **Progress tracking** — weight-progression charts per exercise across past
sessions.
- **Apple Watch companion** — starting a workout on the iPhone launches the watch
app straight into it. The watch lists your in-progress workouts; pick one, pick an
exercise, and run it as a paged flow: a **Ready?** lead-in, count-up work phases,
count-down rests with final-three-second haptics and auto-advance, and a **Finish**
page with **One More** and a **Done** that auto-completes after a countdown. A
phase-dot row (purple work, teal rest) tracks progress. Rest time and the
auto-finish countdown are configurable; changes sync back to the phone.
- **Two-way live run** — prop your iPhone up during an Apple Watch workout and it runs
the same Ready → work/rest → Finish flow with live timers, in step with the watch. It's
bidirectional: drive from either device — swipe ahead, finish a set, add one — and the
other follows. Only *human* transitions are sent; automatic ones (a rest timer ending)
advance both devices independently off shared start times, so they never fight.
- **Watch face complication** — a launcher complication you can place on any Apple
Watch face; tap it to open the app. Available in the circular, corner, inline, and
rectangular accessory slots.
- **Apple Health & Activity rings** — completed workouts are saved to Apple Health
and credit your Move and Exercise rings: recorded live on the Apple Watch (heart
rate + active energy), or estimated on the iPhone when you train without your
watch. See live heart rate and calories on the watch, and a post-workout summary
(duration, calories, avg/max heart rate, heart-rate zones, total volume) you can
revisit on any past workout. Weights display in your choice of pounds or kilograms.
- **iCloud Drive sync** — your data lives as human-readable JSON in your iCloud
Drive, synced across devices and visible in the Files app. iCloud is required.
## Architecture
iCloud Drive JSON documents are the **sole source of truth**; a local SwiftData
store is a rebuildable read-through cache populated exclusively by an
`NSMetadataQuery` observer (one-way flow: files → observer → cache). The phone is
the only device that touches iCloud Drive; the Apple Watch is a thin remote that
round-trips workout changes through the phone via WatchConnectivity.
See `REQUIREMENTS.md` for the data model and `CLAUDE.md` for project guidance.
## Building
The Xcode project is generated with [XcodeGen](https://github.com/yonaskolb/XcodeGen):
```sh
xcodegen generate
open Workouts.xcodeproj
```
Requires Xcode 26 (iOS 26 / watchOS 26, Swift 6).
