chore: version packages
Release 1.9.8 (aicodeman) and 0.1.8 (xterm-zerolag-input). Fixes macOS session start (`posix_spawnp failed.`, issues #6 and #204): node-pty ships its macOS spawn-helper as mode 0644 and macOS launches every PTY through it. `scripts/fix-node-pty.mjs` (npm run fix:node-pty) chmods every helper, prebuilds/ included, then verifies by really opening a PTY; the blind Node-22+ rebuild is gone. `spawnPtyWithHelperRepair()` self-heals an already broken install on the first failed spawn. Adds the phone home screen (session overview under 430px, per-device `mobileOverviewEnabled`, default ON) and a guided Tailscale path in install.sh, plus `install.sh tailscale` to retrofit it.

**`xterm-zerolag-input` is single-source — edit the package, then rebuild the bundle** — the local-echo overlay source lives ONLY in `packages/xterm-zerolag-input/src/` (`zerolag-input-addon.ts`; also published to npm as a standalone library — see README "Published Packages"). It is bundled (esbuild → IIFE, with appended `window.LocalEchoOverlay` aliases) into the **gitignored** `src/web/public/vendor/xterm-zerolag-input.js` by `scripts/postinstall.js` (for dev/`tsx`) and into `dist/.../vendor/` by `scripts/build.mjs` (the `xterm-zerolag-input` esbuild step, for prod). `app.js` only **consumes** it via `new LocalEchoOverlay(terminal)` — there is NO inline copy to keep in sync. So: change behavior in the package source, then re-run the bundle step (`npm install` reruns postinstall; `npm run build` for prod); **never hand-edit `app.js` for overlay behavior or commit the gitignored vendor bundle**. A public-API break in the package still warrants a separate `xterm-zerolag-input` version bump in the changeset. Always test on mobile after touching it. See `docs/local-echo-overlay-plan.md`.

### node-pty's macOS spawn-helper must be executable
|
||||
|
||||
**node-pty ships its macOS `spawn-helper` non-executable, which breaks every session start on macOS** (issues #6 and #204, fixed properly in 1.9.8). `node-pty@1.1.0` publishes `prebuilds/darwin-<arch>/spawn-helper` with mode **0644**. On macOS node-pty launches every PTY through that helper (`argv[0] = helper_path` → `pty_posix_spawn()` in `src/unix/pty.cc`, guarded by `#if defined(__APPLE__)`), so a helper without `+x` makes `posix_spawnp` fail EACCES and node-pty throws `Error: posix_spawnp failed.`, surfaced by Codeman as "Failed to start Claude: …". It is **macOS-exclusive twice over**: `spawn-helper` is an `OS=="mac"` gyp target, and node-pty ships prebuilds for darwin + win32 only, so Linux always compiles from source (node-gyp emits an executable helper) and can never reproduce it. That asymmetry is why it kept coming back: a Linux dev box shows nothing wrong.
|
||||
|
||||
⚠️ **Look in `prebuilds/<platform>-<arch>/`, not just `build/Release/`.** node-pty's loader (`lib/utils.js`) tries `build/Release`, `build/Debug`, then `prebuilds/<platform>-<arch>`, and `unixTerminal.js` derives `helperPath` from **whichever directory the native module loaded out of**. The 0.15 fix only chmodded `build/Release/spawn-helper`, which on macOS does not exist at all (the prebuild is used, so node-gyp never runs), and it resolved the path off `require.resolve('node-pty')` (= `<pkg>/lib/index.js`), producing `<pkg>/lib/build/Release/spawn-helper`, so it was a no-op on every platform.
|
||||
|
||||
The repair is a **chmod, not a rebuild**: the prebuilt binary is fine. `scripts/fix-node-pty.mjs` (also `npm run fix:node-pty`) chmods every helper it finds, then **proves** the result by actually opening a PTY, because a `require()` alone passes on a broken install (the helper is only touched at spawn time). Only if that probe still fails does it rebuild from source, and it backs `prebuilds/` up first: node-pty's install script `rmSync`s the whole prebuilds tree the moment `npm_config_build_from_source` is set and only *then* shells out to node-gyp, so on a Mac without Xcode command line tools an unconditional rebuild leaves the install with neither a prebuilt nor a compiled binary. ⚠️ Do not reinstate a blind rebuild in `postinstall` for that reason (it also cost 30-120s on every install).
|
||||
|
||||
`src/utils/node-pty-repair.ts` is the runtime safety net for installs that are already broken: all four `pty.spawn()` calls in `session.ts` go through `spawnPtyWithHelperRepair()`, which chmods and retries **once** on a `posix_spawnp`/`spawn-helper` error and rethrows anything else untouched, so the user never sees a dead session. A second failure rethrows with the `npm run fix:node-pty` hint attached instead of a bare "posix_spawnp failed". The repair is attempted at most once per process (no chmod storms).

# Tailscale Setup in the Installer (Plan)
|
||||
|
||||
Goal: make "Codeman over Tailscale, with real HTTPS" a first-class, guided path in
|
||||
`install.sh`, instead of a one-line hint pointing at the docs. Today the safest
|
||||
recommended deployment (loopback bind + `tailscale serve`) is exactly what the
|
||||
maintainer's own prod runs, but a new user has to discover and wire it by hand.
|
||||
The installer should do it for them.
|
||||
|
||||
Status: IMPLEMENTED (2026-08-04). `install.sh` carries the 3-way network
|
||||
prompt, the guided Tailscale flow, and the `tailscale` subcommand; README,
|
||||
`docs/security-architecture.md` section A, and CLAUDE.md are updated. Verified
|
||||
live on the maintainer's prod host: `install.sh tailscale` took the idempotent
|
||||
kept-as-is path against the existing serve mapping (recognizing the legacy
|
||||
`https+insecure://` target), verified `https://<node>.ts.net/api/status`
|
||||
end-to-end, and left `tailscale serve status` byte-identical. Items 1-4, 7,
|
||||
and 10-12 of the manual matrix below still need a fresh machine to exercise.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why this is low-hanging fruit
|
||||
|
||||
Everything on the app side already works; this is almost purely installer UX:
|
||||
|
||||
- `.ts.net` is already in `DEFAULT_TRUSTED_HOST_SUFFIXES`
|
||||
(`src/web/network-auth-policy.ts`), so the always-on Host/Origin guard accepts
|
||||
`tailscale serve` traffic with zero configuration. No `CODEMAN_ALLOWED_HOSTS`
|
||||
needed.
|
||||
- The loopback bind is the server default and prints no warning; nothing to
|
||||
acknowledge, no `CODEMAN_PASSWORD` strictly required (the tailnet is the auth
|
||||
boundary; Tailscale authenticates the device before a packet ever reaches us).
|
||||
- `tailscale serve` terminates TLS with a real Let's Encrypt certificate for
|
||||
`<node>.<tailnet>.ts.net`. That gives users valid HTTPS with no self-signed
|
||||
cert warnings, and (because it is a proper secure context) working service
|
||||
worker, PWA install, and web push on phones. This is strictly better than
|
||||
`codeman web --https` for remote access.
|
||||
- SSE and WebSockets work through serve (proven by prod:
|
||||
`https://tnode.tailf80371.ts.net` fronting `127.0.0.1:3000` daily).
|
||||
- `docs/security-architecture.md` section "A. Tailscale serve (recommended)"
|
||||
already documents this as the preferred setup; the installer just does not
|
||||
implement it.
|
||||
|
||||
## UX design
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. The network-access prompt grows a Tailscale option
|
||||
|
||||
`choose_network_binding()` (install.sh:1051) currently offers two choices. New
|
||||
menu, with Tailscale first when it can be recommended:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Network access
|
||||
|
||||
How should the Codeman dashboard be reachable?
|
||||
|
||||
1) Tailscale (recommended)
|
||||
Private VPN access from your phone/laptop, real HTTPS,
|
||||
no password needed. Works from anywhere, not just your Wi-Fi.
|
||||
2) Any device on your network (0.0.0.0)
|
||||
Open it straight from your phone or laptop on the same Wi-Fi.
|
||||
Less safe: set a password so only you control your agents.
|
||||
3) This machine only (127.0.0.1)
|
||||
Safest. Reach it remotely via Tailscale or a tunnel later.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Choice mapping:
|
||||
|
||||
- Option 1 = bind `127.0.0.1` (unchanged server posture) + configure
|
||||
`tailscale serve`. Internally it is option 3 plus the serve setup, so all
|
||||
existing binding plumbing (`BIND_HOST`, service files, `read_existing_binding`)
|
||||
is untouched.
|
||||
- Options 2 and 3 behave exactly as today (renumbered).
|
||||
- Default choice: 1 when tailscale is installed and logged in, or when an
|
||||
existing serve mapping for our port is detected; otherwise keep today's
|
||||
defaults (1 -> 2, 2 -> 3 renumbering, preserving the "existing setup wins"
|
||||
rule). If tailscale is not installed, option 1 is still shown (the installer
|
||||
offers to install it), but the default stays on the current behavior so a
|
||||
bare Enter never pulls in new software.
|
||||
- Password: after choosing Tailscale, offer the password prompt as optional
|
||||
defense in depth with default skip ("the tailnet already authenticates your
|
||||
devices; add one anyway?"). No `BIND_ACK` needed since the bind is loopback.
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. The Tailscale flow (state machine)
|
||||
|
||||
New `setup_tailscale_access()` runs after the binding choice, before service
|
||||
setup, handling each state in order:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Not installed.**
|
||||
- Linux: offer to run the official installer
|
||||
(`curl -fsSL https://tailscale.com/install.sh | sh`), which handles all
|
||||
distros and enables `tailscaled` at boot. This mirrors our own
|
||||
curl-pipe-bash story and avoids maintaining per-distro logic like the six
|
||||
`install_cloudflared_*` functions.
|
||||
- macOS: do not auto-install (the GUI app needs an interactive login).
|
||||
Offer `brew install --cask tailscale` when brew exists, else print the
|
||||
download link, then wait-and-retry or let the user skip.
|
||||
- Declined install => fall back to plain loopback (option 3 behavior) and
|
||||
print how to redo this later (`install.sh tailscale`, see below).
|
||||
2. **Installed but logged out** (`tailscale status --json` ->
|
||||
`.BackendState == "NeedsLogin"` or `"Stopped"`).
|
||||
- Run `tailscale up` (via `run_as_root` if needed). It prints an auth URL
|
||||
that works headless (user opens it on any device). Poll
|
||||
`.BackendState == "Running"` with a friendly spinner + timeout; on
|
||||
timeout, skip gracefully with re-run instructions.
|
||||
3. **Running: grant operator (Linux).** `sudo tailscale set --operator=$USER`
|
||||
so serve configuration (now and in the future) does not need root. Skip
|
||||
silently if we are already operator (probe: `tailscale serve status`
|
||||
exits 0) or sudo is declined; fall back to `run_as_root tailscale serve ...`.
|
||||
4. **HTTPS availability check.** `.CertDomains` empty or
|
||||
`.CurrentTailnet.MagicDNSEnabled == false` means the tailnet has not enabled
|
||||
MagicDNS / HTTPS certificates. Print the exact two toggles with the admin
|
||||
URL (https://login.tailscale.com/admin/dns: enable MagicDNS, then enable
|
||||
HTTPS Certificates), then offer "I enabled it, re-check" / "skip for now".
|
||||
No silent HTTP fallback: the pitch is real HTTPS, and a plain-HTTP serve
|
||||
would break the PWA/push story. Skipping falls back to loopback + re-run
|
||||
instructions.
|
||||
5. **Existing serve config check** (`tailscale serve status --json`).
|
||||
- Already proxying to our port (443 -> `127.0.0.1:$PORT`): keep it, report
|
||||
it, done. Re-running the installer must be idempotent.
|
||||
- Port 443 occupied by a DIFFERENT target: never clobber it. Ask whether to
|
||||
replace it or skip. (Prod itself has a second serve on :5000; blind
|
||||
`tailscale serve reset` would destroy user config. NEVER use `reset`.)
|
||||
6. **Configure.** `tailscale serve --bg $PORT` where `$PORT` is the install's
|
||||
Codeman port (default 3000; honor a preset `CODEMAN_PORT`). Serve targets
|
||||
plain HTTP on loopback; TLS terminates at tailscaled with the real cert.
|
||||
The `--bg` config persists in tailscaled state across reboots, so no extra
|
||||
service unit is needed.
|
||||
(Note: do NOT combine this with `codeman web --https`; that is what forces
|
||||
the awkward `https+insecure://` proxy target prod historically used. New
|
||||
installs should keep Codeman on plain HTTP behind serve.)
|
||||
7. **Verify end-to-end.** Derive the URL from `.Self.DNSName` (strip the
|
||||
trailing dot) and curl `https://<dnsname>/api/status` after the service is
|
||||
up, retrying for ~30s: the first request can be slow while the Let's
|
||||
Encrypt cert is issued. Print success with the URL, or the observed error
|
||||
with `tailscale serve status` output on failure. This follows the "always
|
||||
test before claiming it works" rule; a blind "done!" is not acceptable.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Closing summary and security notice
|
||||
|
||||
- The final summary gains a "Remote Access (Tailscale)" block, printed above
|
||||
the cloudflared block, showing the actual URL:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Remote Access (Tailscale):
|
||||
https://tnode.tailf80371.ts.net (any device on your tailnet, HTTPS)
|
||||
tailscale serve status # inspect
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
- `print_security_notice()` third branch (loopback) gets a variant: when a
|
||||
serve mapping for our port is detected, lead with "reachable on your tailnet
|
||||
at https://... (HTTPS, tailnet-only)" instead of the generic "do ONE of"
|
||||
list. Detection is dynamic (query `tailscale serve status --json` at print
|
||||
time), no marker persisted anywhere: tailscaled's own state is the single
|
||||
source of truth, so external changes never drift against a stale flag.
|
||||
|
||||
### 4. Standalone entry point: `install.sh tailscale`
|
||||
|
||||
Add a `tailscale` subcommand next to `update` / `uninstall` in the existing
|
||||
dispatch. It runs `setup_tailscale_access()` against the already-installed
|
||||
service (reads the port from the service file, requires an existing install).
|
||||
This serves:
|
||||
|
||||
- existing installs that predate the feature,
|
||||
- users who picked "this machine only" and changed their mind,
|
||||
- every "skip for now" branch above, all of which print this exact command.
|
||||
|
||||
One implementation, two entry points. No separate `scripts/tailscale-setup.sh`
|
||||
(unlike cloudflared, there is no long-running process for a `tunnel.sh`-style
|
||||
start/stop wrapper to manage; tailscaled owns the lifecycle).
|
||||
|
||||
### 5. Non-interactive / automation
|
||||
|
||||
- `CODEMAN_TAILSCALE=1` presets choice 1 (analogous to presetting
|
||||
`CODEMAN_HOST`). In non-interactive runs it only proceeds through states
|
||||
that need no human (already installed + logged in + HTTPS-enabled tailnet);
|
||||
anything requiring interaction (login URL, admin-console toggle, replacing a
|
||||
foreign serve mapping) warns and falls back to loopback. It never installs
|
||||
tailscale non-interactively.
|
||||
- `CODEMAN_NONINTERACTIVE=1` with an existing serve mapping: preserve it, same
|
||||
"never silently loosen/change" policy as `read_existing_binding`.
|
||||
- Document both in the header comment block of install.sh (the env-var
|
||||
reference at the top) and in the README.
|
||||
|
||||
## Edge cases and decisions
|
||||
|
||||
| Case | Decision |
|
||||
| ---- | -------- |
|
||||
| macOS GUI app without `tailscale` on PATH | `get_tailscale_path()` helper mirroring `get_cloudflared_path()`: check PATH, then `/Applications/Tailscale.app/Contents/MacOS/Tailscale`. All calls go through it. |
|
||||
| Tailnet HTTPS certs disabled | Guided admin-console instructions + re-check loop; skip falls back to loopback. Never configure plain-HTTP serve. |
|
||||
| Port 443 serve exists for another app | Prompt replace/skip; never `tailscale serve reset` (destroys unrelated mappings). |
|
||||
| First cert issuance latency | Verify step retries ~30s and says why the first load may be slow. |
|
||||
| `tailscale up` needs auth | Print the auth URL prominently, poll with timeout, skip gracefully. Works headless. |
|
||||
| Custom `CODEMAN_PORT` | Serve target uses the actual port; `install.sh tailscale` re-reads it from the service file. |
|
||||
| Funnel (public internet) | OUT OF SCOPE for v1. If ever added it must mirror the tunnel guard: refuse without `CODEMAN_PASSWORD` (`isUnauthenticatedNetworkAcknowledged`). Funnel exposes to the whole internet and is a different risk class than tailnet-only serve. Mention `tailscale funnel` in docs only, with the password warning. |
|
||||
| Uninstall | Best effort: if `serve status --json` shows 443 proxying to our port, run the targeted `tailscale serve --https=443 off` (still accepted by current CLIs); if the CLI rejects it, print manual instructions. Never touch other mappings, never uninstall tailscale itself. |
|
||||
| User already fronting Codeman some other way (reverse proxy etc.) | The serve check only looks at tailscale state; other proxies are invisible and unaffected (same stance as the loopback-exemption note in security-architecture). |
|
||||
|
||||
## What does NOT change
|
||||
|
||||
- Server code: no changes required. Host guard already trusts `.ts.net`,
|
||||
loopback bind is already the default, SSE/WS already work through serve.
|
||||
- The two existing binding options and their semantics, `read_existing_binding`
|
||||
preservation, and the LAN+password flow.
|
||||
- `scripts/tunnel.sh` / cloudflared support (stays as the "no Tailscale
|
||||
account" alternative).
|
||||
- The security model: this feature only ever narrows exposure (loopback +
|
||||
authenticated overlay), never widens it.
|
||||
|
||||
## Files touched (implementation inventory)
|
||||
|
||||
| File | Change |
|
||||
| ---- | ------ |
|
||||
| `install.sh` | New: `check_tailscale`, `get_tailscale_path`, `tailscale_status_field` (jq-free JSON field extraction; the installer cannot assume jq: use `sed`/`grep` like existing helpers or `tailscale status --json` piped to `node -e` since node is guaranteed post-install), `offer_install_tailscale`, `ensure_tailscale_login`, `ensure_tailscale_operator`, `ensure_tailnet_https`, `setup_tailscale_serve`, `verify_tailscale_access`, `setup_tailscale_access` (orchestrator). Modified: `choose_network_binding` (3-way menu), summary block, `print_security_notice`, subcommand dispatch (`tailscale`), `uninstall` (targeted serve removal), header env-var docs (`CODEMAN_TAILSCALE`). |
|
||||
| `README.md` | Remote-access section: promote the Tailscale path with the one-liner and `install.sh tailscale`; keep the tailscale-IP HTTP note for non-serve users but recommend serve + HTTPS. |
|
||||
| `docs/security-architecture.md` | Section A gains "the installer can set this up for you" + `install.sh tailscale` pointer. |
|
||||
| `CLAUDE.md` | One line in Scripts & Tunnel: installer offers Tailscale setup (`install.sh tailscale` to redo). |
|
||||
| `test/` | No unit tests possible for interactive bash + a live tailnet; guard with `shellcheck install.sh` (already the norm) and the manual matrix below. |
|
||||
|
||||
## Manual test matrix (before release)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Linux + tailscale absent: install offered, declined => loopback fallback + hint.
|
||||
2. Linux + tailscale absent: install accepted => full flow => URL verified.
|
||||
3. Logged out => auth URL flow => Running => serve configured.
|
||||
4. Tailnet with HTTPS certs disabled => guided instructions => re-check => success; and the skip branch.
|
||||
5. Re-run installer with serve already configured => idempotent, preserved, reported.
|
||||
6. Second serve mapping on another port present => untouched (prod-like state).
|
||||
7. Port 443 already proxying another target => replace/skip prompt honored.
|
||||
8. `install.sh tailscale` on an existing loopback install (the retrofit path).
|
||||
9. `CODEMAN_NONINTERACTIVE=1` re-run => preserves everything, no prompts.
|
||||
10. macOS (Mac mini `arbbot` box): GUI-app CLI path detection + full flow.
|
||||
11. Uninstall removes only our 443 mapping, leaves others.
|
||||
12. Phone check: PWA install + push from the `https://*.ts.net` origin.
|
||||
|
||||
## Release
|
||||
|
||||
Changeset: `minor` (new documented installer capability + new `CODEMAN_TAILSCALE`
|
||||
env var). The feature is installer-only, so it ships with zero risk to running
|
||||
servers; `install.sh update` does not invoke the new flow (updates never rewrite
|
||||
access config), only fresh installs and the explicit `install.sh tailscale`
|
||||
subcommand do.
