# PDIAP-12284 - Remove UIKit wrapping from XFlow

## Status

- Reopened after rollback.
- Jeff asked David to start working on this with `PDIAP-15836`, but not to move the active story to In Progress until the next sprint starts on Thursday after lunch.

---

## Context

- This is the original story for removing the UIKit wrapping.
- Current relationship to track: `PDIAP-15836` is blocked by this story because the lifecycle-sequencing fix depends on the UIKit removal landing, unless further validation proves part of `PDIAP-15836` can be implemented independently on the SwiftUI path.

---

## Historical Slack Context

- November 21, 2025 Slack context says David created `PDIAP-12284` and `PDIAP-12285` to cover remaining UIKit-removal work inside XFlow after reviewing open Sendable and XFlowViewMaker-track stories.
- That same backlog refinement closed out pending XFlowViewMaker stories that were no longer needed.
- Current Mattermost context supersedes the old standalone refinement framing: this story is now reopened after rollback and should be handled together with `PDIAP-15836`.

---

## Sequencing

- Work can begin, but merge/release should wait until the REST-transition consumer-validation window has completed.
- Keep the implementation branch up to date with `main` while waiting for approval to work with consumers and merge.
