69a71287e6 fix(sessions): stop pinning the w1-myapp placeholder as Claude's /resume title (#457)
* fix(sessions): stop pinning the w1-myapp placeholder as Claude's /resume title

Local claude spawns passed the tab name as `--name`. That flag is not only the
cross-session peer name: it is also the prompt-box label, the `/resume` picker
entry and the terminal title, and a pinned title stops Claude generating its own
(`customTitle ?? aiTitle`). So every conversation of a case was listed in
`/resume` as the same `w1-myapp`, and none of them got a generated title. On one
workspace, 34 of 34 conversations spawned with `--name` had no ai-title, while
every conversation spawned without it had one.

Only a name the user chose is pinned now: `Session.cliPinnedName` is the name
when `nameSource === 'manual'`, carried to the builders as a separate `cliName`
so the tab/mux name is untouched. Placeholder and auto names let Claude title
the conversation again.

A rename in Codeman also reaches `/resume`: the new name is appended to the
conversation's transcript as the `custom-title` row `/rename` writes (never
creating the file, never writing an empty title). For a pane spawned without
`--name` this holds immediately; a pane spawned with one re-appends its own
title each turn, so there the new name holds from the next spawn.

* fix(sessions): skip no-op renames and docker sessions when syncing the /resume title

A same-name PUT (the Session Options field saves on blur and recomposes the
unchanged placeholder) no longer flips nameSource to manual or appends a
custom-title row, and docker sessions skip the host transcript scan since their
transcript lives in the container. The skill pages no longer use a w<N>- name
as the peer-name example, and the changeset notes the re-append caveat.

* docs: record that nameSource decides --name and renames reach /resume

Codeman maintainer 5b920cb43d feat(sessions): land auto-naming opt-in, in the prefix form, from the first user prompt only
Finishes #376. The contributed keystroke tracker sat on the raw byte stream
and named tabs wrong five ways (every prompt, every write path, a bare Esc
eating the next prompt's first character, pasted newlines as Enter, any CSI
clearing the draft) and replaced the whole name, which dropped the case from
the tab and reset the w<n> counter. This lands the feature with each of those
closed:

- First prompt means the first: applyAutoName() flips a placeholder to
  `auto` whether or not the string changed. nameSource is now the tri-state
  placeholder | auto | manual; the name setter is the only manual path.
- Only user-originated input counts: write()/writeViaMux() take
  SessionWriteOptions.fromUser, set by the browser WS path and POST /input
  only, so Ralph, respawn, cron, approvals and the trust-dialog keys can
  never name a tab. A startMode 'shell' CLI never feeds the tracker (a
  capability, not an id check); the send-key route feeds trackUserInput()
  because its line feed bypasses the session.
- Prefix form `w3-case: title`: parseSessionPrefix() already renders it as
  the title with the prefix in the tooltip and the next-session counter
  still matches it. Composed within MAX_SESSION_NAME_LENGTH.
- Tracker rules per key: bare Esc resolves at chunk end; mouse/focus
  reports, Tab, cursor keys, Shift+Tab are no-ops; Up/Down and Ctrl+P/N/R
  taint the draft so Enter submits nothing rather than a fragment;
  bracketed-paste newlines and Ctrl+J / Shift+Enter join with one space;
  the draft keeps its head past 8192 code points; an escape past 64 bytes
  is abandoned.
- Title: slash commands by shape (a path is a prompt), `!` escapes
  refused, first sentence only past 8 code points ("e.g." is not a title),
  72 code points on a word boundary.
- Synced `autoNameSessions` setting, default OFF (the prompt reaches
  mux-sessions.json, session:updated and /api/search), App Settings ->
  Appearance -> Tabs, read fresh per prompt after the eligibility check.

Tests: test/session-auto-name.test.ts (tracker, title, composition,
ownership, emit gating), the wiring test (once, prefix, setting off,
manual protected), test/routes/session-name-routes.test.ts (PUT /name
flips to manual and persists). Verified live on an isolated instance: API
and browser-typed prompts name the tab, a second prompt does not, shells
and renamed tabs are untouched, nameSource survives a restart.
