The opt-in multi-user feature's only enforcement is web-layer scoping
(all sessions share one OS account). An adversarial review found 8 critical
+ 7 high cross-user holes that defeated it, plus mediums; all fixed here.
Single-user (flag-off) behavior stays byte-identical apart from documented
consistency deltas.
Ownership / confinement:
- DELETE /api/sessions (bulk) + /:id now owner-scope / findSessionOrFail
- quick-start, cron (create+fire), scheduled runs confine workingDir to the
owner's space; case link/docker-link/docker-import confine the host path
- resolveCasePath no longer resolves linked cases for non-admins; foreign
remote/docker cases are skipped (fall through to the caller's own local case)
- history, subagents/workflows, mux-sessions, orchestrator, cron run-history,
away-digest, and remote/docker host reads are owner- or admin-scoped
Permission policy (section 6.3):
- non-granted users are downgraded at every spawn site incl. legacy
/api/scheduled, PlanOrchestrator one-shots, remote launch, and the cron-fire
gemini/codex bypass switches; resolveClaudeModeForUsername now fails closed
Auth / store:
- verify-first login throttle (a correct password is never locked out),
/ws terminal subject to the change-password lockbox, cookie fast-path
re-validates identity live, role/grant changes revoke sessions, admin delete
runs the last-admin guard before any teardown
- users.json: distinguish missing (ENOENT) from corrupt/unreadable so a bad
read can't overwrite all accounts; unique per-process temp write path
Event streams:
- debounced session:updated + batched task:updated, clipboard, and push
notifications route by owner (fail closed); getLightState hides machine-wide
globalStats from non-admins
Tests: two suites updated to assert the fixed (secure) behavior. tsc, eslint,
and test:ci all green.

A 15-agent audit of the merged tree confirmed 9 envelope/contract bugs;
all fixed here, with live-server contract tests added:
Blockers (fresh-install quick start broken):
- session-ui.js runClaude/runShell unwrapped .data from the /api/cases/:name
404 error envelope (which has no data key), so a not-yet-created case threw
TypeError instead of triggering the auto-create fallback. Now '?.data ?? {}'.
Contract violations on the new stable surface:
- Unknown /api routes returned HTTP 404 with {success:true,...} (Fastify's
default not-found payload was wrapped by the envelope hook). Added a
setNotFoundHandler returning the standard error envelope for /api paths.
- POST /api/events/subscribe 400 body became {success:true,data:{error}};
now createErrorResponse(INVALID_INPUT).
- POST /api/clipboard validation error lacked errorCode and shipped HTTP 200;
now createErrorResponse(INVALID_INPUT) -> 400.
- POST /api/run catch path returned bare {success:false,sessionId,error}
(HTTP 200, no errorCode); now OPERATION_FAILED envelope -> 422 with the
dead session id in the message.
- DELETE tail-file/:streamId returned {success: closed}, colliding with the
envelope discriminator; now returns {closed}.
Dead/regressed UI paths:
- Plan history modal could never open: route returned the bare history array
under data while the frontend read data.data.history/currentVersion. Route
now returns {history, currentVersion}; modal task count fixed to stats.total.
- Self-update error toast read j.error.message from the string-typed envelope
error, always falling back to the generic message; now reads the string.
Cleanup:
- Removed the stale QuickStartResponse type (unreferenced; documented the
pre-envelope shape and invited success-key collisions).
Tests: new test/http-contract.test.ts boots a real WebServer (port 3168) and
pins the envelope, /api/v1 alias, error statuses, and the /api 404 shape —
the route-test harness does not install the server-level hook, so these need
the live server. Updated file-routes/plan-routes/scheduled-runs tests to the
fixed shapes.

Point 1 of the v1.0 lock-in: commit to a stable HTTP API (the cleanest, fullest form).
Core (centralized):
- Every JSON /api response now uses ONE envelope via a Fastify preSerialization hook (src/web/server.ts): success -> { success:true, data:<payload> }; error -> { success:false, error, errorCode } with a conventional HTTP status. Non-JSON routes (file-raw, tail-file SSE, download, screenshots, /q redirect, WS) are skipped.
- Error-code -> HTTP status is a single source of truth (httpStatusForErrorCode in src/types/api.ts): 400/401/404/409/422/429/500. Expanded ApiErrorCode (added UNAUTHORIZED, CONFLICT, RATE_LIMITED). Errors are no longer HTTP 200.
- Versioned alias: /api/v1/* rewrites to /api/* (rewriteApiV1Url), so external clients pin to a stable surface while the bundled UI keeps using /api/*.
- Handlers stripped of manual 'success:true' (50 across 14 route files) so they return bare payloads the hook wraps uniformly; fixed the mux DELETE {success:<bool>} envelope collision (-> {killed}).
Frontend (48 call sites across 10 files):
- _apiJson() auto-unwraps { success:true, data } -> data (null on error), so most bare-shape readers are transparent. Raw-fetch sites relocate payload reads under .data; success/res.ok/error checks unchanged.
Docs: new docs/api-reference.md (envelope, status table, error codes, /api/v1, SSE); versioning-policy.md flipped — the HTTP/SSE API is now part of the stable, SemVer-covered surface.
Verification: full unit/route suite green (2680 passed) incl. ~166 updated assertions across 24 test files; typecheck/lint/format/frontend-syntax clean; a headless-chromium smoke loaded the migrated UI and drove the panels with 0 console/page errors; /api/status and /api/v1/status confirmed returning the uniform envelope live.

POST /api/clipboard with { text } broadcasts to all connected browsers
via SSE. Browser attempts navigator.clipboard.writeText, falling back
to a modal with manual copy button if blocked.
Enables remote clipboard workflows: CLI tools can push text to the
user's browser clipboard across the network.
