claude advertises "Jump to bottom (ctrl+End)", so that chord has to actually
reach it. But PASSTHROUGH_KEYS carried only the bare forms (End -> \x1b[F) and
CTRL_KEYS held just six letters (c/d/l/z/a/e), which cannot express End. Ctrl+End
therefore failed in both directions:
- with an empty composer it went out as a bare \x1b[F, the modifier silently
dropped, so the CLI received a plain End;
- with text in the composer the forwarding branch requires empty, so nothing was
forwarded and the browser default applied — the caret jumped to the end of the
draft, which is the "the shortcut now edits my input box" the user saw.
Encode them as CSI 1;<mod><final> instead, and forward Ctrl/Alt-modified
navigation keys whether or not the composer is empty: they are commands for the
CLI, and the composer has no editing semantics for them worth preserving (bare
Home/End still use the old table and edit locally).
⚠️ Bare Shift is deliberately excluded: Shift+arrow selects text in the composer,
a real editing gesture that must stay local. Shift held together with Ctrl/Alt is
still encoded into the modifier mask.
`backdrop-filter` promotes an element to its own compositing layer. A
position:fixed full-screen layer that is created and then hidden was measured to
leave a stale hit-test region behind in Chrome: the page renders perfectly, but
pointer events across the viewport go nowhere.
The report came from a long-lived tab connected to a remote server, where a
connection blip shows and then hides #offlineOverlay. The symptoms were a
terminal that would not scroll and, at the same time, an unrelated
click-to-expand that also stopped responding, while a freshly opened tab was
fine; a read-only console command (getComputedStyle + elementFromPoint, both of
which force a hit-test recomputation) then cured it. Two unrelated features
dying together and one read-only command fixing both points at hit-testing
itself rather than at either feature.
So the `backdrop-filter` moves onto the actually-visible selector and the layer
is never created while hidden. Only the two persistent overlays change:
offline-overlay (toggled with [hidden]) and file-preview-overlay (toggled with
.visible). path-picker and path-preview are created and removed by JS, leave
nothing behind, and are untouched.
⚠️ This is an evidence-based inference, not a fix verified by reproduction:
reproducing it needs a long-lived page that has been through a connection blip,
which I could not manufacture in a controlled environment. The guard test pins
both halves — no such property while hidden, and a real blur while shown — so a
later cleanup cannot quietly delete the effect.
In a native terminal running a TUI with mouse tracking on (claude, codex), Shift
is the "let me select text" modifier: it bypasses the application's mouse
reporting so the emulator selects locally. Users bring that habit here, where it
did nothing — measured, `hasSelection` was already false during a Shift+drag and
no clearSelection call ran at all, because there was never a selection to clear.
The mismatch is that the two Shifts mean different things. xterm reads Shift as
"force selection", but that path is only taken when the application really has
mouse tracking on. The server strips the mouse DECSETs for claude/codex/gemini
(isAltScreenStripMode), so xterm's mouseTrackingMode is permanently `none`, that
branch is unreachable, and Shift instead lands in _onIncrementalClick — which
EXTENDS an existing selection. Extension is a no-op while selectionStart is
empty, so the drag had no anchor.
So plant the anchor xterm is missing. The listener sits on the capture phase of
the `.xterm` root, an ancestor of the `.xterm-screen` that SelectionService binds
to, and therefore runs before xterm's own mousedown; xterm then extends from our
anchor and the drag behaves like any other. Length is 0 so a Shift+click without
a drag does not select a stray character. An existing selection is left alone —
that is a genuine extend gesture, and xterm handles it correctly.
Right-click copies the selection (the mintty/PuTTY convention), completing the
gesture: until now there was nowhere for a finished selection to go. With no
selection the native menu is not hijacked — taking it away while offering
nothing in return is a pure loss.
xterm 6 reads `selectionBackground`; the pre-6 name was `selection`, and it is
now silently ignored (the vendored xterm.min.js contains zero occurrences of
that key — no alias, no fallback). All seven skins still set the old name, so no
skin's tuned selection colour has ever taken effect; every one of them fell back
to xterm's own default of rgba(255,255,255,0.3).
The consequence split by skin, which is why it survived so long. On dark skins
white at 30% happens to be a reasonable selection colour and nothing looks
wrong. On light skins white over white composites to within 3/255 of the
background — invisible. The drag really did select, the screen just never
changed, which reads as "text here cannot be selected".
The skins' own colour choices were fine, they were simply never read, so this
only renames the keys and adds `selectionInactiveBackground` (alpha 55%) so a
selection stays visible after the terminal loses focus. Minimum channel delta
after the change is 38, maximum 47.
The guard test composites each skin's selection colour over that skin's own
background and requires a visible delta of >= 12. Asserting "the key exists"
would not catch this — a bad colour passes that just as happily — and the
absence of this test is why the bug survived.
Once a container is adopted, it could not be adopted a second time. But a
container usually holds more than one project directory, and opening a case for
another one had no path forward except starting a second container — precisely
what adoption exists to avoid.
The original reason was in a comment: two cases sharing an adopted container
would make one case's teardown race the other's launch on the same tmux server.
That reason does not hold. The in-container tmux session name is
dockerTmuxSessionName(sessionId), i.e. codeman-dkr-<id8>, keyed by SESSION and
not by case, and buildDockerKillCommand tears down exactly that name, so killing
A never touches B — hosting multiple sessions is what a tmux server is for.
The other three routes into an adopted container's lifecycle do not pass through
here either, confirmed one by one: the stop and remove builders throw outright;
recreate refuses `owned === false` before it even resolves the container name;
and orphan reaping filters on `label=codeman.managed=1`, which a user-built
container does not carry — a structural exclusion.
That leaves exactly three cases worth refusing, none of them tmux-related, split
into the pure, unit-tested classifyAdoptContainerConflict:
- owned-case the container belongs to a Codeman-created case, whose lifecycle
Codeman manages: one recreate or delete there would pull the
container out from under the adopting case.
⚠️ `owned` may be absent and absent means owned (cases predate
the field), so the test is `!== false`, not truthiness.
- other-owner already adopted by a different user. Adoption hands out a shell
inside someone else's container.
- duplicate same container, same directory. The second case would behave
identically to the first, so name the existing one rather than
silently minting a twin. A different in-container directory is
the case this change exists to support and passes.
The home screen now lists tmux sessions Codeman did not start (a claude or
codex running inside `tmux new -s work`, or just a shell); one click turns one
into a tab you can keep working in.
Adoption is a fourth LOCATION OVERLAY, structurally identical to remote/docker,
and NOT a new SessionMode: the outer layer is still an ordinary
codeman-<8hex> wrapper session on this instance's own socket, and only the pane
inside it runs the attach. Session-name allowlisting, capture, input and the
recovery chain are therefore untouched, and "detach, never kill the foreign
session" becomes structural rather than a rule to remember — killSession can
only ever reach our own wrapper.
All three locations share one probe script, one parser and one classifier, and
differ only in the shell around them (direct exec / docker exec / ssh). Pane
mode is decided from the bounded process-tree argv of pane_pid, because claude
and codex both report `node` as pane_current_command; anything unrecognised is
treated as a shell.
Things measured rather than assumed:
- A grouped session buys only `status off` and an independent current window,
not an independent size. Measured on tmux 3.3a: both a bare attach and a
grouped one shrink the other client's 200x49 to 80x23. Only
`window-size largest` preserves it, but that is a shared window option that
survives our departure, so it is not set.
- View reclamation: local relies on client death, ssh on SIGHUP, but a
`docker exec` does not die with its client — the container-side view must be
reclaimed explicitly on kill or every adoption leaks one.
- The session name is chosen by someone else, while the local launch chain ends
in `bash -c` plus JSON.stringify, which does not escape `$` or backticks, so
the outer shell performs substitution before the inner single quotes close.
Session names and socket paths therefore pass a character allowlist and are
discarded during DISCOVERY, so a non-conforming candidate never gets an id.
Capability degrades by "who started this process": an adopted session has no
hooks, no envOverrides and no effort, and its working directory is merely the
foreign pane's cwd at that moment (possibly not even on this host). Respawn,
Ralph, the orchestrator, hook waits, and every watcher that tails the local
filesystem by workingDir are refused or skipped, and the close dialog no longer
offers a "kill the session" option it cannot honour.
The run menu still offered every mode for an attached container. The browser's
actual request showed why:
POST /api/docker-cases/adopt-preflight -> 400
{"error":"Invalid input: expected object, received string"}
_api serializes `body` and sets Content-Type itself, and three call sites each
passed an already-stringified body, so it was encoded twice and the server saw a
JSON string where it expects an object. curl was fine throughout, so nothing in
the server logs pointed at it.
Also fixes the design defect underneath: a failed probe fell through to "do not
gate", which silently offered every mode. When the container has been recreated,
is stopped, or the engine is unreachable, the user sees claude, clicks it, and
it can only fail — with the reason visible nowhere. A failed probe now hides
every agent mode (Shell needs no CLI and stays) and shows the server's own
reason at the top of the menu.
Two static guards switched from a character window to brace matching. They
sliced between two call sites, and _loadRunModeHistory's call appears above its
definition, so the slice came out empty and the assertion verified nothing —
the same trap twice in one file.
Both paths in the adoption form had to be typed. Each gets a Browse button
using the same path-input-group markup Link Existing uses, so the two look and
behave alike.
What they can browse differs, and that is the point. The host workspace path
reuses the existing host picker. The container workdir cannot: an adopted
container has nothing mounted at a matching host path, so a host listing would
be a different filesystem — and getting this field wrong is the source of the
opaque OCI chdir error at launch, which makes it the field that most needs to
be clickable.
Adds a read-only POST /api/docker-cases/browse: one `ls` through docker exec, no
writes, no lifecycle, path shell-escaped like every other value. `ls -Ap` marks
directories with a trailing slash and keeps names with spaces intact.
PathPicker takes an optional fetchListing source rather than being forked: the
container variant only swaps where the rows come from, and reuses the rendering,
navigation, Up and Choose/Select unchanged.
Link Existing's Browse did nothing: GET /api/filesystem/browse answered 403
"No filesystem browse roots are available".
Two rules were fighting. /root is a default blocked tree in the attachment
guard, and Codeman running as root — containers, plenty of servers — makes
homedir() exactly /root, so the picker's own allowlisted Home root was blocked;
the other candidates live under it or do not exist. The root list came out
empty and there was nothing the user could open.
The blocked trees exist to keep ~/.ssh and friends out of reach, not to seal off
the user's own home. Only trees that would swallow a configured root whole are
dropped now: /root goes when Home is it (or sits inside it), /etc holds no
configured root and is untouched. Secrets stay protected — isSensitivePath
independently matches .ssh/, .env and credentials* at any depth, and it is what
the directory probe asks about.
⚠️ Navigation must reuse the same narrowed list the roots were chosen with.
Handing the raw trees downstream admits a root and then refuses every path
inside it, which reads as a picker that opens and does nothing.
Attaching a container, picking claude and hitting Run gave one line —
`execvp(3) failed.: No such file or directory` — and the run-mode menu offered
every mode. Three separate defects, found on a real deployment.
TmuxManager.createSession resolved the CLI directory without distinguishing a
docker session, so a host with no claude threw, the catch fell back to a direct
PTY, and that PTY exec'd the CLI on the HOST. The failure surfaced as a bare
execvp error naming nothing. A docker session runs its CLI inside the container;
the host does not need it. All eight modes now sit behind a cliRunsInContainer
guard, and whether the container has the CLI is settled by the adoption
preflight or the image gate before launch.
The running check used a bare double quote and command substitution. The whole
chain is embedded in an outer `bash -c "…"`, so the unescaped quote closed that
string early and the remainder was re-tokenized. It is now a `grep -qx` pipeline
using only the single-quote form every other line in the builder already uses.
Claude Code refuses --dangerously-skip-permissions as root. Our base image runs
a non-root user, so an owned container never hit this; an adopted container's
user belongs to its owner and is frequently root, and keeping the flag killed
the pane with a message visible only inside the container. The preflight now
reports runsAsRoot and the launch chain drops the flag for it.
The menu also showed every mode because the container CLI probe only started
when the menu opened. It is warmed when the case is selected instead.
Storing the container's CLIs on the case at attach time left two gaps: a case
linked before that field existed has none at all, and a container's CLIs can be
installed or removed long after it was linked. A real deployment hit the first
one — the host had only codex, the container only claude, and with no stored
list the menu still gated on the host and hid the mode that actually worked.
The probe now runs when a container case is selected, reusing the existing
adopt-preflight endpoint, so there is no new backend surface. Results are cached
per case for the page's lifetime, since the menu opens often and the probe is a
`docker exec` round trip; a concurrent probe for the same case is deduplicated
with an in-flight marker.
A failed probe leaves the cache empty, which the caller reads as "unknown" and
therefore does not gate. Hiding every mode because one probe failed is worse
than offering one that turns out to be missing, which the launch path already
refuses with a specific message.
The repaint only happens while the menu is still open, so a late answer cannot
make the list jump under a user who already closed it.
The adoption preflight used the mode name as the binary name. claude, codex,
opencode, gemini and pi happen to match, so it never showed — but antigravity
ships as `agy` and deepseek as `dsh`, so a container that has either was
reported as not having it, and the mode was silently dropped from the case.
Adds a MODE_BINARIES map, single-sourced with defaultDockerCommandForMode, which
launches those same binaries. Probing and result filtering share one `binaryFor`
so the two cannot drift apart.
The run-mode dropdown hides CLIs that are not installed on the HOST (#201). That
is right for local sessions and wrong for a container case, whose agents run
inside the container: a host with no claude installed hides the mode while the
container ships one, which is exactly what happened on a real deployment.
The adoption preflight already probes what the container has, so that result is
persisted on the case and surfaced through CaseInfo. Docker cases gate on it;
every other case keeps the host probe unchanged.
An absent list reads as "do not gate" rather than "nothing available": an owned
container runs our base image, which ships every CLI, and treating unknown as
empty would leave the menu with Shell alone.
Typing a container name from memory is error-prone. The field becomes a native
datalist: pick from the engine's containers, type to filter, or type a name that
is not listed (the engine may be remote, or the container may not exist yet).
A datalist gives all three natively, so no dropdown state machine is introduced.
Adds listDockerContainers and GET /api/docker-hosts/:hostId/containers, following
the listRemoteCodemanSessions discovery precedent: read-only and never throwing,
so an unreachable daemon returns an empty list and the field degrades to plain
text instead of erroring.
Stopped containers stay in the list, sorted after running ones and labelled.
Attaching does require a running container, but hiding stopped ones turns "my
container is not in the list" into a dead end, while showing
`Exited (137) 8 days ago` says exactly what to fix.
The new strings were English only. Adding entries surfaced a deeper problem: the
translator matches whole text nodes and skips `code`/`pre`, so an inline `<code>`
mid-sentence splits a hint into fragments that can never match an entry — which is
why the panel's existing "Build it once with <code>...</code>" hint was never
translated either.
Drops the inline markup from the new hints so each is a single text node, then
adds the zh-CN entries. The brand name goes through the existing {name}
placeholder.
Server-side error bodies are deliberately not added: the client receives them
already interpolated with a concrete container name, so a template key could
never match.
Attaching lived only on the Docker tab, but the place users look for anything
container-shaped is the "Run in an isolated Docker container" checkbox on Create
New. A feature nobody can find is a feature nobody has.
Adds a one-click link there that switches to the Docker tab, turns the toggle on
and focuses the container field. Reuses switchCaseModalTab and the existing sync
helper; no new CSS.
Two defects that only a real container exposes.
The probe chained `command -v X && echo X` with semicolons, and a script's exit
status is its last command's. A container without the last probed CLI made the
whole `sh -lc` exit 1, so a perfectly healthy container with tmux and claude was
reported as "could not exec into the container". A missing CLI is data here, not
failure, so the script now ends with `exit 0`.
containerWorkdir defaulted to hostWorkspacePath. That default holds for an owned
container only because the create-time bind mount puts the host directory at that
exact path; attaching mounts nothing, so the two are independent facts. A host
path absent inside the container makes `docker exec --workdir` fail with an OCI
chdir error that surfaces in the pane as a bare "execvp failed". The preflight now
proves the directory exists inside the container and refuses at link time.
The Docker tab gains an "Attach to an existing container" toggle. Ticking it
swaps the create-time fields (image, network, advanced) — which describe a
`docker create` attaching never runs — for the container name, and routes the
submit to the adopt endpoint.
Reuses the existing linkDockerCase flow end to end: only the final call differs.
The docker-host upsert still applies, since it is what resolves the
engine/context/daemon for `docker exec`; its create-time fields are simply never
read for an attached case.
Docker cases could only run in a container Codeman created itself. Attaching to
one the user already built and runs means Codeman must leave that container's
lifecycle completely alone, which the launch chain could not do: it was
`image inspect` -> `inspect || create` -> `start` -> `exec`.
Adds `DockerCase.owned`, mirroring the `owned:false` contract remote-SSH already
uses for attached sessions. Absent (every existing case) means owned, so current
behaviour is byte-identical. `false` means the container belongs to the user and
Codeman may only exec into it.
The launch chain for an attached container only looks, then execs: no image gate
(the image is theirs), no create, and no `start` — starting a container we do not
own is the very mutation attaching promises not to perform. A missing or stopped
container fails closed with an actionable message instead. Credential seeding is
skipped too: those copies read from create-time read-only mounts that do not
exist here, and writing host credentials into someone's container is not ours to
do, so its CLIs must already be authenticated inside it.
Four fail-closed guards. buildDockerStopCommand and buildDockerRemoveCommand
throw during pure string construction, so no caller bug can turn into a
`docker stop`/`rm` on a container we do not own; removeDockerContainer refuses
again at the lowest layer; drift reports "none" for an attached container, which
carries no `codeman.confighash` label and would otherwise always look drifted and
409 the launch gate forever; and the orphan reaper skips attached containers
through a check deliberately independent of the two conditions already covering
them.
`owned` is applied AFTER the config hash is computed. dockerConfigHash takes an
explicit field list, so ownership can never shift an existing case's hash — if it
did, every pre-existing case would trip the drift gate at once, and the remedy
the UI offers is "recreate the container".
Adds POST /api/cases/docker-adopt and a read-only
POST /api/docker-cases/adopt-preflight. The preflight refuses at LINK time rather
than at session launch, where the only ways out would be a dead pane or starting
a container we do not own.
Tests assert the negative guarantee directly — that create, start, stop, rm,
restart and kill are absent from the generated commands while `docker exec -it`
and `new-session -A` remain — since it cannot be observed by using the feature.
Adds `claude-fable-5-1` to the App Settings model picker and the five task-routing selects, mirroring how Fable 5 is already offered: a base option with data-ctx="1" plus its [1m] companion row. No settings-ui.js logic change, since the cards and the 1M switch are built from those options.
docker/server.Dockerfile installed Debian's `docker.io` to get a client for the
socket mounted by Compose. That package is the full ENGINE: even with
--no-install-recommends it pulls 15 packages including containerd, runc, dmsetup
and iptables, none of which a container that only talks to a mounted socket can
use, and it ships Docker 20.10.24 (2023).
Copy the CLI and the buildx plugin from the official docker:29-cli image
instead. Measured on the same node:22-bookworm-slim base: 266 MB -> 108 MB, so
158 MB smaller with a current CLI (29.7.2) in place of a two-year-old one.
Three things verified rather than assumed, by building the real image and
running it:
- docker:cli is an ALPINE image, so copying a binary into this Debian one is
only safe because the binaries are static Go builds (ldd: "Not a valid dynamic
program"). In the built image, `docker --version`, `docker ps` and
`docker build` all work against a mounted host socket as the unprivileged
runtime user.
- buildx is copied on purpose. scripts/build-agent-image.mjs shells out to
`docker build` and Codeman auto-builds the agent image on the first Docker
case. Without the plugin that still works today — CLI 29 falls back to the
classic builder, tested — but that builder is deprecated and will be dropped,
so the plugin keeps the path supported.
- docker-compose is NOT copied: Codeman never shells out to it.
Pinned to the 29 major, matching how the base images here are pinned.
The header chip silently shrank from "5h 4% · 7d 52%" to a lone "7d 52%", which
reads as half the feature breaking rather than as an idle window.
Nothing was broken. Claude Code documents `rate_limits.five_hour` as "present
only while the API reports it and its resets_at has not passed", so between
5-hour session windows the key simply leaves the statusline payload. Codeman's
snapshot replaces the Claude half wholesale on every sample, so the segment
disappeared until usage opened a new window. Confirmed against a live 2.1.252
session by capturing real statusline payloads on an isolated tmux socket: the
boot render carries no `rate_limits` at all, and the first post-response render
carries both windows.
The slot now stays, with a dimmed em dash. Claude only: a missing CODEX bucket
means that plan has no such limit rather than an idle window, so those stay
omitted (pinned by the existing test). The placeholder can never stand alone
either — hasWindows() still gates the row, so a provider reporting nothing
renders nothing rather than a row of dashes. The tooltip says "5-hour limit: no
active session window" instead of dropping the line.
Verified in a real browser against a dev instance: the idle chip renders
"5h — · 7d 52%" with the dash at opacity 0.55 in --text-dim while the live
value keeps its green, and the chip holds its shape (100px idle vs 107px with
both windows).
Docker Compose deployment: Codeman runs in a container and spawns Docker cases
as SIBLING containers through the mounted host socket (Docker-outside-of-Docker).
Resolved the README conflict (master had grown to eight CLIs since the branch
was cut) and moved the Compose blurb out of the feature bullets into Quick
Start, next to the other ways of starting Codeman.
Three review findings from the PR discussion are fixed here rather than left
for a follow-up, because two of them are shipped-image problems:
- `.dockerignore` excluded `.env` only at the ROOT. A pattern is matched against
the whole context-relative path, so `docker/.env` — which the deployment's own
README tells the user to fill with CODEMAN_PASSWORD and provider API keys —
was picked up by `COPY . .` and baked into the image at
/opt/codeman/docker/.env. Verified in both directions against a real build
context: with a canary secret in docker/.env, the unfixed ignore file lets
/ctx/docker/.env through, and `**/.env` (plus `**/.env.*` and a negation for
the checked-in .env.example) leaves only the example behind.
- `CODEMAN_CASES_PATH` moved the server's CASES_DIR but not the CLI's, which
still hardcoded ~/codeman-cases, so `codeman skill install --case <name>`
reported "Case not found" on exactly the deployment the override exists for.
Both now resolve through config/cases-dir.ts. state-store.ts keeps its own
literal on purpose: that one migrates the historical ~/claudeman-cases
directory by name and is about the old default, not the active location.
- CLAUDE.md gained the Compose paragraph (the sibling-container inversion, the
three env vars, the .dockerignore and root-owned-bind traps) and .dockerignore
joins the documented list of files that genuinely belong in the repo root.
The PR's `mode === 'claude'` guard on dockerResumeId is an unrelated master bug
fix riding along: appendResumeFlag() maps a resume id onto codex/gemini/pi/grok/
deepseek/omp/antigravity and RESUME_ID_SAFE accepts a UUID, so a Docker case's
lastClaudeSessionId was handed to every non-claude CLI.
Full gate green in a merge worktree: 6360 tests, lint, format, frontend syntax,
public assets, lockfile.
1.24.2. Also corrects two numbers in the CLAUDE.md trust-dialog paragraph that
was written while the fix was still uncommitted: the keystroke cap is 6, not 3,
and the scan now schedules its own follow-up read rather than waiting on PTY
output that a static dialog never produces.
Every claude session in a directory claude had not seen before died about six
seconds after it started (`Pane is dead (status 1)`), before the agent drew a
composer. Reproduced on a fresh case and measured.
Claude Code 2.1.252 rewrote the dialog. It used to be
❯ 1. Yes, I trust this folder
2. No, exit
and is now unnumbered, reversed, and highlights the option that quits:
❯ No, exit
Yes, I trust this folder
Detection still worked (the confirm affordance carries the match once the
numbered option text is gone), so the failure was entirely in the answer: the
auto-accept pressed Enter on the highlighted default, which is now exit.
trustDialogNextKey() reads the ❯ marker off the rendered pane and returns ONE
keystroke at a time: an arrow while the cursor is on the wrong option, Enter
only once the screen shows it on the trust option, and null for a frame that
does not say. Both layouts are handled, and which way the trust option lies is
read from the frame rather than assumed, so a further reordering costs a
repaint instead of a session. The last marked option wins, because the
direct-PTY fallback reads an append-only buffer where an older frame must not
out-vote the freshest one.
Two things only a live pane showed:
- The scan ran solely from the PTY onData handler. The arrow that moves the
cursor is the last output the pane produces, so the first fix parked every
session with the cursor sitting on the right option and no Enter ever sent.
It now schedules its own follow-up read (_trustDialogTimer, cleared in
_clearAllTimers()), offset past the scan throttle so the chain cannot break
on a boundary.
- The keystroke cap goes 3 -> 6, since answering is no longer one press.
The bundled codeman skill had the same blind \r as its bounded fallback, so
preamble 1.21.0 replaces it with _trust_key/_accept_trust: read
terminal?full=1, steer onto the trust option, re-read, then confirm. Those
keystrokes go out under their own clientId, because input sequence numbers are
monotonic per client and spending prompt numbers on dialog keys would make the
next send-and-wait look like a stale duplicate and vanish while reporting
success. The readiness recipes in docs/extending-codeman.md,
docs/api-reference.md and the skill's own reference carry the corrected answer,
plus a symptom-table entry for a worker whose pane is dead seconds after spawn.
Verified live on an isolated instance (own data dir and tmux socket): fresh
case -> arrow at 5 s -> Enter at 7 s -> composer, with hasTrustDialogAccepted
recorded. With the server-side auto-accept disabled in a throwaway copy, the
skill's fallback cleared a genuinely parked dialog in 1.1 s and spawn_worker
took a brand-new case to a live composer in 7.2 s; spawn_workers + sendwait +
last_text then ran end to end.
Audit of CLAUDE.md against the tree. Verified still accurate: the 31-module
frontend load order (matches index.html exactly), SSE registry parity at
157 = 157 (confirmed by running the parity test), config/ 21 files, types/ 22
domain files, 136 mobile device profiles, the version line, and every Quick
Reference command.
Drift corrected: 24 route modules to 25, ~220 handlers to ~227, system-routes
51 to 56, app.js ~5K lines to ~6.7K and 30 modules to 31, install.sh 92KB to
104KB. Completed the CLI resolver inventory, which was missing
deepseek-cli-resolver and omp-cli-resolver even though both modes are
documented, and named the shared cli-executable-resolver lookup chain.
Filled the gaps found by sweeping every src module against the file:
- Owner tab layouts (COD-359) had 6 source modules, 7 test files, 2 routes, an
SSE event and a state.json key, with zero mentions anywhere in CLAUDE.md or
docs/. The paragraph records the four things a reader would otherwise get
wrong: it is backend-only as of 1.24.1 with no frontend consumer, the service
is the sole mutation boundary, it projects onto PUT /api/session-order rather
than replacing it, and reconciliation is gated on a successful restore.
- codeman doctor and codeman users were undocumented top-level CLI commands.
- Four subsystems whose invariants lived only in their @fileoverview:
the workspace-trust dialog recognizer, proc-tree's bounded walk (the
2026-07-30 incident that took a machine down), deepseek-web-server (one
child process, deliberately not a shell session), and the Files panel
search matcher (globs are never compiled to a RegExp).
Also fixes a stale "156 event types" comment in constants.js (actual: 157) and
a contradiction in AGENTS.md, which still carried the retired "never run the
full suite inside a managed tmux session" rule against CLAUDE.md's current
"npm test is the gate and is safe to run bare".
Note: the trust-dialog paragraph documents trustDialogNextKey(), which is part
of a sibling session's in-flight fix for the Claude Code 2.1.252 layout change
(unnumbered, reversed options with "No, exit" highlighted, so a blind carriage
return picks exit and kills the pane). That fix was uncommitted in the shared
tree when this landed, so the doc leads the code until it is committed.

Follow-up to #350, which fixed the actual blocker (issue #352): `dsh plugin` is
a thin forwarder that `spawnSync`s a literal `pnpm` with no npm fallback, so an
image without pnpm dies at exit 127 and takes the whole build with it.
That PR also pinned an allowlist of the two packages whose lifecycle scripts
pnpm blocked at the time. Replace it with a policy that cannot go stale: pnpm,
unlike npm, refuses dependency build scripts by default and FAILS the install
over it (`ERR_PNPM_IGNORED_BUILDS`, exit 1, measured on pnpm 11.24), and the
names to allow move between rebuilds because `@deepseek-harness-tui/dsh-tui` is
resolved by dist-tag, not pinned: 0.9.3 pulled `@google/genai` (whose script is
a literal `preinstall: no-op`), 0.10.0-beta.x does not. An allowlist of two
names would have let the next tree break the build the same way. Allowing them
wholesale is also the exposure this image already accepts three layers up,
where `npm install -g` runs the install scripts of every transitive dep of the
five CLIs above with no gate at all.
Also correct a comment in the `/api/deepseek/install-profile` route that
asserted the opposite of what #352 proved ("dsh bundles its own package
manager, so no system pnpm is required"). The route's behavior is already
right: dsh's own "pnpm not found on PATH" stderr reaches the caller as the
OPERATION_FAILED detail, so the UI's "add a terminal profile" button names the
fix. Documented the prerequisite in docs/deepseek-integration.md, and taught
the docker-cases image smoke test about `dsh`/`omp` plus the profile check that
`dsh --version` does NOT cover.
Every other CLI (claude/opencode/codex/gemini/antigravity/pi/grok/dsh) has
a check_*/get_*_path pair wired into install.sh's detection loop and the
"no AI CLI found" aggregate checks. OMP had neither -- a user with only
omp installed would be told no CLI was found and offered to install
Claude Code or OpenCode.
Added OMP_SEARCH_PATHS (mirrors src/utils/omp-cli-resolver.ts's
OMP_SEARCH_DIRS) and check_omp()/get_omp_path(), wired into both
aggregate conditions (the interactive install-menu trigger and the
end-of-run reminder) and added omp's real vendor curl one-liner to the
reminder block. The DeepSeek Harness line was never in that reminder to
begin with -- confirmed it has no vendor one-liner (dsh installs via
Codeman's own API after the server is already up), so it stays out, with
an explanatory line instead.
Also fixed the "Skip" menu text, which was missing Gemini and DeepSeek
Harness from its example list independent of the omp gap, and the same
stale sibling-CLI-list bug (missing DeepSeek Harness and OMP, "the
eight"/"这七个") in README.md and the repo's existing README.zh-CN.md.
Small cleanup items from upstream review (Ark0N/Codeman#353):
- OMP_SEARCH_DIRS now leads with ~/.local/bin, matching omp.sh's real
installer target (~/.omp/bin was an earlier unverified guess, confirmed
wrong against a real --no-cache Docker build).
- docs/omp-integration.md: fixed the dead GitHub URL (can1357/omp ->
can1357/oh-my-pi), corrected the CLI count (ninth backend, tenth
SessionMode incl. shell -- not eighth), matched the install-path guidance
to the resolver fix, updated the version example to the actually-tested
18.0.8, and added a Docker-section caveat: --resume pinning does not
currently reach an in-container omp process, since Docker panes never see
ompConfig.
- docs/architecture-invariants.md: fixed a heading missing ", OMP" (CLAUDE.md
already linked to the -omp anchor, so the link was dead) and added an OMP
specifics paragraph -- the one external CLI missing an entry in this doc.
- .changeset/omp-backend.md: corrected the sibling-CLI list (was missing Pi,
Grok, and DeepSeek Harness) and the backend count.
- Removed a stray orphaned comment fragment in the quick-start docker branch
and split two CSS lines that had two declarations jammed onto one line.
resumeHistorySession() creates the resumed row in its own mode via a
modeConfigKey map (opencode/pi/grok/omp -> continueSession, deepseek ->
resumeSession) and retires the old row afterward. codex, gemini and
antigravity were missing from that map, so resuming one of their rows
started a brand-new session with NO continuation while still deleting
the row it came from -- silent data loss dressed as the duplicate-row
fix. Gate row retirement on continuesSomething (true only for modes that
actually got a continuation config) instead of wiring an unverified
sessionId->native-conversation-id assumption for the three affected CLIs.
DELETE /api/sessions/:id reimplemented the ownership 404 check inline in
two places instead of going through findSessionOrFail, and its
persisted-only-session branch never broadcast session:deleted, so other
open tabs kept the retired row until their next unrelated fetch. Extract
the shared 404 into sessionNotFoundError(), add findPersistedSessionOrFail()
alongside findSessionOrFail() in route-helpers.ts (same ownership
contract, returns a SessionState instead of a live Session), and use both
from the route instead of inline checks. Add the missing broadcast.
The docs claimed omp "has no documented vendor-key namespace of its own"
and "the multi-user clamp has nothing to gate" for omp — both false. Per
omp's own docs/environment-variables.md, it reads ~40 provider keys from
env (pi's known 34-key problem in the same shape), and its own knobs are
mostly PI_* (already globally allowlisted): PI_CONFIG_DIR,
PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR, PI_CODING_AGENT_SESSION_DIR, PI_SUBPROCESS_CMD,
PI_SHELL_PREFIX. The first three also move the ~/.omp tree
omp-session-resolver.ts/omp-transcript.ts hardcode, silently degrading
pinning/history — a known gap shared with pi, documented but not fixed
here.
The OMP_* prefix this PR adds brings in OMP_AUTH_BROKER_URL/
OMP_AUTH_BROKER_TOKEN, where omp resolves credentials from — the same
shape DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL is already dropped for in
clampEnvOverridesForOwner(). Add both to OWNER_CLAMPED_ENV_KEYS so a
non-granted owner in multi-user mode can't redirect them, and correct the
false claims in CLAUDE.md, docs/omp-integration.md, and the stale
resolveOmpHome() comment. Also documents omp's default
tools.approvalMode: yolo, which was previously unstated.
findLatestOmpSessionId()'s newest-mtime pin ran eagerly inside
_buildRespawnPaneOptions(), which startInteractive() calls unconditionally
on every boot-recovery reattach — before anything checks whether the pane
is actually dead. With two omp tabs in the same case dir, this could pin
an ALIVE pane's session onto whichever sibling's file happened to be
newest on disk, purely as a side effect of building options that might
never lead to a respawn (reported in Ark0N/Codeman#353 review).
Move resolution out of the eager builder into _pinOmpRespawnId(), called
explicitly only where a respawn is actually confirmed: the dead-pane
branch in _setupOrAttachMuxSession() and reattachRemote(). Add
resolveAndClaimOmpSessionId(), which verifies each candidate's own file
header (cwd) rather than trusting the mangled-directory match alone, and
tracks claimed ids in a process-wide registry so two ambiguous resolutions
can't both pick the same sibling's conversation.
Found live 2026-08-27 by Tim: clicking Run OMP to start a brand-new session
in a case directory with prior omp history launched --resume <old-id>
instead of a clean `omp` invocation.
Root cause: Session._resolvedOmpRespawnConfig() resolves-and-pins the
newest on-disk omp conversation as a side effect on this._ompConfig. That
is correct when reattaching to an ALREADY-TRACKED mux session (a dead-pane
respawn, or a boot-recovery reattach - the constructor sets _muxSession
from persisted state before startInteractive() ever runs there), but it
ran unconditionally. startInteractive() computes
`respawnPaneOptions: this._buildRespawnPaneOptions()` eagerly in the same
object literal that builds `createSessionOptions.ompConfig: this._ompConfig`,
so for a genuinely brand-new session (no muxSession in its create config,
_muxSession still null) the resolve-and-pin side effect ran and poisoned
this._ompConfig before that field was even read.
Fix: gate the resolve-and-pin logic on `this._muxSession` already being
set. A fresh session has no muxSession yet and now passes through
untouched; a real reattach (muxSession present since construction) keeps
resolving and pinning exactly as before.
Verified live in production against the exact reported scenario (a fresh
omp session in a case dir with 8+ hours of prior omp history) - confirmed
both via the API (ompConfig stays empty, claudeSessionId equals the
session's own id) and visually in the GUI. Regression test constructs a
real Session + TmuxManager to exercise the actual private-method
interaction directly, since no existing test called startInteractive() at
all.

OMP was the one external CLI mode with no dedicated user-guide doc, unlike
opencode/pi/grok/deepseek which each have one. Covers install, auth (omp
owns its own entirely - no Codeman-side login flow or bypass switch),
what Codeman wires up (OmpConfig), the exact-id pinning mechanism and the
directory-mangling bug behind it, kill-survival via transcript scanning,
terminal behavior, Docker/remote-SSH cases, and known gaps (no idle hook,
mid-turn kill data loss, unverified symlinked-$HOME behavior).
Cross-referenced from README.md's Multi-CLI doc list and docs/docker-cases.md's
credential-seeding summary (which now also documents OMP's sessions/-is-shared
exception to the seed-everything pattern the other CLIs use).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
OMP had full routing at the Docker layer (default pane command, schema) but
was never actually installed in docker/agent.Dockerfile, and had no
credential-isolation entry in docker-hosts.ts's CRED_STORES - a Docker-mode
OMP session would have failed with "omp: command not found", and even with
the binary present would have had no config/auth seeded, despite the README
already claiming OMP has "seamless auth, isolated credentials" in Docker.
- docker/agent.Dockerfile: install omp via its own installer (standalone
binary, same shape as grok/antigravity - not on npm). Verified against a
real --no-cache build: the installer actually targets ~/.local/bin, not
~/.omp/bin as the resolver's OMP_SEARCH_DIRS ordering would suggest -
confirmed omp/18.0.8 installs and runs correctly inside the image.
- src/docker-hosts.ts: add a .omp/agent CRED_STORES entry. Unlike every
sibling CLI in this family, sessions/ is SHARED (RW), not seeded: Codeman
reads ~/.omp/agent/sessions/**/*.jsonl host-side for history recovery and
--resume pinning (omp-transcript.ts, omp-session-resolver.ts), the same
reason codex's sessions/ is shared rather than seeded. Seeding it instead
would silently break the kill-survival feature for Docker cases. Only the
small config files (config.yml/mcp.json/models.yml/settings.yml) are
seeded; the SQLite caches and terminal-sessions/ stay container-local.
- test/docker-hosts.test.ts: pin the new CRED_STORES entry's behavior.
Found in passing (NOT fixed here, unrelated and pre-existing on master): the
agent image's DeepSeek (dsh) plugin-install step currently fails on a fresh
build ("pnpm not found on PATH"), confirmed via git diff against
origin/master that this line is untouched by this branch. Worth a separate
issue/PR.

Follow-up from a full-branch review pass (Opus) of the omp-mode integration:
- Add pinning tests for resolveOmpConfigForCreate() (session-routes.ts),
exported to make it testable: the exact "resume this OMP row from
history" pipeline that mangleOmpWorkingDir's earlier bug lived in had
zero coverage despite being the resolver module's whole reason to exist.
- Log a warning when findLatestOmpSessionId() finds nothing on disk and
continuation silently degrades to omp's own ambiguous --continue,
in both call sites (session create and respawn pinning) - previously
silent, making the degradation invisible to anyone debugging it.
- Require an absolute cwd before trusting a session file's working
directory in omp-transcript.ts's parser, so a corrupted/malformed
session file can't point a downstream resume at a relative or empty
path.
- Document (don't speculatively fix) an unverified symlinked-$HOME edge
case in mangleOmpWorkingDir(): the review's suggested realpath() fix
assumes omp itself resolves symlinks before mangling, which is
unconfirmed - guessing wrong there would trade one silent mismatch
for a different one.
- Incidental: fixed unrelated pre-existing prettier drift in
session-routes.ts (antigravity/opencode dynamic import line-wrapping)
that was blocking the pre-commit formatting gate on this file.
Confirmed as a non-issue: the model-name regex allowing "/" is
intentional (provider/model ids like "crof/glm-5.2" were used
successfully in live testing).

Two bugs compounded to break continuation pinning on every real OMP
case (only /tmp-based manual testing happened to work by coincidence):
1. startInteractive() had a second, unconditional claudeSessionId
assignment after the mux branch that clobbered its correctly
resolved value back to the session's own id on every mux path.
2. mangleOmpWorkingDir() assumed omp mirrors Claude Code's directory
naming (home prefix kept), but omp actually strips $HOME first.
findLatestOmpSessionId() was silently returning null for every
case under ~/codeman-cases/, so resumeSessionId never resolved for
any real case dir - only /tmp paths (outside $HOME) worked, which
is every dir this feature was previously tested against.
Verified live: killed and relaunched the omp-verify server process
mid-session (plain reattach, pane stayed alive) and confirmed
claudeSessionId now resolves to the real omp transcript uuid instead
of the Codeman session's own id.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Claude conversations survive "Kill Tmux & Claude" because Codeman reads
them back independently from ~/.claude/projects, not from its own
session bookkeeping. omp conversations had no equivalent: kill the
Codeman session and the conversation vanished from Past Sessions
entirely, even though omp itself never forgot it on disk.
Adds omp-transcript.ts, a scanner over omp's own
~/.omp/agent/sessions/<mangled-cwd>/<uuid>.jsonl files (the same shape
as Claude Code's own transcript scanner, but simpler -- these files are
small enough to read whole instead of doing head/tail windows). Each
file's own "session" header line carries the real cwd and session id
directly, so unlike Claude's mangled-directory-name decoding this
never has to guess. Wired into gatherUnifiedInputs() as a second
history source alongside the Claude scan, and HistoryInput/
mergeUnifiedSessions() now carry an optional `mode` so a non-claude
history-only row still gets a real mode badge.
Also fixes the ambiguity behind the "continue picks the wrong
conversation" report from this session's testing: omp mints its OWN
session uuid, unrelated to Codeman's, so a live/persisted row and its
own history-scan row would otherwise show up as two separate entries
for the same conversation the moment the id gets resolved. Reuses the
existing claudeSessionId alias field (mergeUnifiedSessions' fold-into-
owner mechanism) to point at the resolved omp id, threading it through
every place `_claudeSessionId` gets (re)computed -- the constructor,
_resolvedOmpRespawnConfig, and a new _maybeCaptureOmpSessionId() that
opportunistically resolves it the first time a brand-new omp session
(one that has never gone through a respawn) goes idle.
Also closes a THIRD instance of the "ompConfig never got wired in
here" gap this session kept finding: restoreMuxSessions() in server.ts
restores every sibling CLI's config from persisted state on boot except
omp's, so a boot-recovered omp session always lost its resolved resume
id and fell back to guessing again.
Verified live end-to-end: told a session a secret, killed it fully
(Kill Tmux equivalent, killMux=true -- the Codeman session AND its tmux
pane both gone), and the conversation still showed up in the unified
list as a history-sourced row with the real first prompt as its title
and an omp mode badge, keyed by omp's own session id.
Known remaining gap, not fixed here: the claudeSessionId alias doesn't
yet resolve reliably on every boot-recovery path for a session that
was never respawned while alive (e.g. a plain re-attach to a pane that
was never dead) -- worth a follow-up, but doesn't affect the two things
that matter most: the conversation surviving a kill, and continuation
correctness once an id has been resolved (which happens on the very
next respawn either way).
Every non-claude "Resume" click creates a brand-new Codeman session
(there is no id to reattach to), but the old row was never cleaned up
-- click resume on the same conversation a few times and the session
list fills up with duplicate rows sharing one name. resumeHistorySession
now retires the row it resumed from after the new one starts.
That retirement needs DELETE to actually work on a row that was never
live in the first place (the normal case for anything showing up in
"Resume Conversation"): findSessionOrFail only checks the in-memory
live-session map, so DELETE 404s on a persisted-only entry today. Give
the route a fallback: when the id isn't live, look it up in persisted
state instead and demote/remove it there (respecting the existing
pinned-session protection). Verified live against a real persisted-only
row via the API, and added route-test coverage for both the success
and still-truly-unknown-id cases (which needed a demoteOrRemoveSession
mock the route harness didn't have).
Also includes an unrelated pre-existing prettier drift fix picked up
by npm run format (omp-cli-resolver.ts, antigravity/opencode import
wrapping in session-routes.ts).
respawnPane() -- the path used when a session's pane died (crash, idle
respawn, or the user's own /exit) but the Codeman session object is
still tracked -- never had ompConfig wired through at all, in either
its options destructure or its inner buildSpawnCommand() call. This is
a gap in the original OMP patch, distinct from the resumeHistorySession
fix (which only covers a session that has been fully closed and shows
up as a history row): reselecting a tab whose CLI process just exited
goes through this path instead, and always launched a bare, contextless
`omp` no matter what.
Beyond the wiring, respawning a dead pane is semantically different
from creating a brand-new session: the conversation is still "this
session" to the user, so _buildRespawnPaneOptions() now defaults
ompConfig to continueSession:true unless the session already carries
an explicit resumeSessionId (which still wins in buildOmpCommand).
Verified live: told a session a secret, exited OMP so the pane died
(session and tmux both left alone), forced the exact dead-pane-respawn
path, and the new process replied with the secret -- confirming
`omp --continue` fired instead of a blank omp.
resumeHistorySession() never sent mode when recreating a session from a
history/session-manager row, so the server default silently opened a
plain Claude session for every non-claude row -- reproduced live: OMP
rows spawned Claude sessions on click. Thread the row's mode through
every call site (welcome list, session manager, mobile overview) and
only send the Claude-specific resumeSessionId for claude rows.
Codeman has no live PTY-reattach outside server boot, and it's moot for
OMP anyway (exiting it kills the pane's only process), so route the
non-claude relaunch through each CLI's own continue-most-recent flag
instead of a context-free fresh start. OMP never got one: buildOmpCommand
only implemented --model/--resume despite omp --help documenting
-c/--continue. Added continueSession to OmpConfig end-to-end (type,
schema, builder) mirroring the existing opencode/pi/grok/deepseek
fields, and wired resumeHistorySession to use it.
Verified live: told a real omp session a secret, exited it, closed the
tab without killing tmux, relaunched with --continue in the same
directory, and had it recall the secret.
Two prose lists in skills/codeman/ named some but not all external CLI
modes after the omp-mode rebase, which is exactly the drift
test/agent-skill-mode-lists.test.ts exists to catch: SKILL.md's
no-hook-signals list was missing omp, and endpoints.md's version-probe
sentence named pi/grok/omp as a bare 3-mode run with no matching class.
- omp-cli-resolver.ts already uses createCliExecutableResolver; add dedicated
test/omp-cli-resolver.test.ts mirroring pi's (version-probe accept/reject,
negative-cache backoff, VITEST hermeticity gate)
- dependency-registry omp entry now requires OMP_VERSION_REGEX match like pi,
so codeman doctor and the run-mode resolver agree on what counts as installed
- system-routes /api/omp/status surfaces version
