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.

Split the monolithic app.js (~12.5K lines) into 6 focused mixin modules
that extend CodemanApp.prototype via Object.assign:
- terminal-ui.js — terminal setup, rendering pipeline, controls
- respawn-ui.js — respawn banner, countdown, presets, run summary
- ralph-panel.js — Ralph state panel, fix_plan, plan versioning
- settings-ui.js — app settings, visibility, web push, tunnel/QR, help
- panels-ui.js — subagent panel, teams, insights, file browser, log viewer
- session-ui.js — quick start, session options, case settings
Fix deferred script init ordering: wrap CodemanApp instantiation in
DOMContentLoaded so all defer'd mixin modules execute their
Object.assign before the constructor runs. Without this, init() calls
methods like applyHeaderVisibilitySettings() that don't exist yet.
Guard missing cleanupWizardDragging() call in subagent-windows.js.
Update build.mjs to minify/hash all new modules. Update CLAUDE.md
with new frontend architecture and load order.
