install.sh installs a build toolchain on Linux (node-pty has no Linux
prebuild, so a stock Ubuntu 24 server died inside node-gyp with
"not found: make"), plus review hardening for #339: the write-queue
reset paths now release the one-chunk-in-flight gate.

SessionMode gains 'grok', a first-class backend alongside Claude Code,
shell, OpenCode, Codex, Gemini, Antigravity and Pi: its own PTY, tmux
session, charcoal tab identity ('gk' badge), welcome button, run-mode
entry, cron agentType, Docker and remote-SSH command defaults, and
clone-repo Brain option. Flag surface verified live against grok 1.0.5.
Grok mixes two existing shapes and the wiring follows from that:
- Codex-shaped on permissions: the bypass switch is GrokConfig.alwaysApprove
(--always-approve, grok's bypassPermissions mode; config-level deny rules
still apply on top). The Run button sends it true, like runAntigravity(),
and clampExternalCliBypassForOwner() puts grok in the only-if-sent branch:
a bare grok spawn is grok's own ask-mode default, which is already safe,
so only a sent config needs the flag forced off. Cron needs nothing for
the same reason.
- OpenCode-shaped on rendering: grok is a fullscreen alternate-screen TUI
with mouse support, so it stays OUT of isAltScreenStripMode() and lands
on the narrow tmux-attach strip and the 'buffer' local-echo fallthrough
(unmeasured against an authenticated composer; documented fallback is the
'off' branch).
- Pi-shaped on resolution: 'grok' has npm squatters (@vibe-kit/grok-cli
also installs a grok bin), so grok-cli-resolver.ts version-probes every
candidate (grok --version, killSignal SIGKILL, VITEST-gated) and
GET /api/grok/status surfaces path AND version; GROK_VERSION_REGEX is
shared with the dependency registry so doctor and run mode cannot drift.
Env allowlist gains GROK_* plus the XAI_* vendor namespace (XAI_API_KEY is
grok's documented headless auth var), the same narrow-vendor reasoning as
GOOGLE_* for gemini. Resume is id-regexed on purpose: grok's own --resume
also matches session titles, which are arbitrary user strings that must
never reach the bash -c spawn line.
Docker: grok is not on npm, so the agent image installs it in its own step
(xAI's installer has no --dir override; the binary is copied to
/usr/local/bin and root's ~/.grok dropped in the same layer), and
credentials are seeded per-file (auth.json, config.toml, pager.toml; the
dir also holds sessions/, memory/ and the ~160MB binary). Remote SSH routes
through the login-shell wrapper like the other agent CLIs.
Verified end to end on an isolated CODEMAN_INSTANCE with grok 1.0.5
installed: /api/grok/status resolves and reports the probed version,
quick-start spawns a pane whose command line ends in 'grok
--always-approve', the real TUI renders (OAuth device screen on an
unauthenticated box), and grokConfig round-trips through state.json.
Docs: docs/grok-integration.md (user guide) + docs/grok-integration-plan.md
(decisions, verification record, follow-ups).
Tests: test/grok-mode.test.ts, test/grok-cli-resolver.test.ts, plus
extended clamp/system-routes/render-index-html/run-mode-ui/mobile-overview/
local-echo-gating coverage. npm test (the CI gate) green: 5910 tests.

codeman tui supersedes the sc bash chooser: it reaches sessions 10+,
carries the server's real states instead of a static list, and leaves an
attach with one key. Every place that told a user to run sc now names the
tui equivalent, including the two wiki pages and install.sh's next-steps
banner. Both wiki pages also carried the wrong detach chord (Ctrl+A D;
the socket's prefix is C-b), which the tui makes moot.
Source comments that explained themselves as "the sc -l replacement" now
just say what they do. docs/tui-plan.md and CHANGELOG.md are historical
records and keep their references.
The sc chooser runs a plain `tmux attach-session` and binds nothing, so
F1 does not detach from it; only `codeman tui`'s attach claims that key,
and only for its own duration. The line it replaced was wrong too (the
socket's prefix is C-b, not C-a), so name the real chord and say which
command gives you the single key instead.
The guide and the README both said to detach with `Ctrl+B D`. Beta testing
proved that wrong twice over: tmux binds lowercase `d` to `detach-client` and
capital `D` to `choose-client`, and even the correct letter fails for anyone who
keeps Ctrl held, because that sends `Ctrl+D`, which tmux leaves unbound. A
tester followed the documented instruction, stayed attached, and exited the
agent to escape.
Both now say `F1`, and the attach section describes what actually happens: the
session strip across the top of the pane, `Alt+1`..`Alt+9` switching without
returning to the dashboard, and `r` to resume a session whose pane has died.
Also corrected: `1-9` switches rather than jump-attaches, `x` confirms with `y`
rather than a typed name, and a new session opens straight into its pane.
`docs/tui-plan.md` is deliberately untouched — it is the design record of what
was planned, not a description of what shipped.
The user guide covers what the dashboard is (and is not), the two
non-interactive fast paths, the four groups and their ordering, the full
keymap, what answering an approval does server-side, and the SSH/narrow
and degraded cases. The example frame is a real 100x30 capture against
the E2E fake server, not a drawing.

`codeman attach <path>` posts an attachment card for a local file; it
was described as attaching a Claude hook context. And Codeman never
overrides the tmux prefix for local sessions (only remote-SSH and docker
panes get C-q), so the detach hint is Ctrl+B D, matching the chooser.

`npm test` ran config/vitest.config.ts, which includes the browser, visual and
perf suites. On any machine without chromium, a free port and per-machine PNG
baselines that fails ~87 tests on a clean master, so the repo's most obvious
command could not be used as a pass/fail signal. The workaround had spread into
four docs as "never run bare `npm test`" warnings.
`npm test` now runs config/vitest.ci.config.ts — byte-for-byte what CI runs — so
local green means CI green. Verified: 264 files, 5248 tests, exit 0.
The suites it leaves out are not abandoned; each has a command:
test:browser 5 Playwright files (chromium + a live server; codex-predictive-echo
also needs a real codex binary)
test:mobile unchanged — the above plus per-machine PNG baselines
test:perf 2 wall-clock benchmarks; need an otherwise idle machine
test:all the old everything-behaviour, kept reachable
test:ci is untouched (CI still calls it). test:watch and test:coverage follow
test onto the gate's config.
The more important half is the hole this closes. The exclusion list lived as
literals in one config and pointed one way only: a file excluded from CI and
added to no runner would be tested by NOTHING, silently, with every command
still green — vitest counts "no files matched a filter" as success. That is the
same shape as the #279/#280 blind spot already documented in CLAUDE.md.
So the globs moved to config/test-suites.ts, one array per REASON a suite cannot
run in CI, and all three configs derive from it. test/test-suite-partition.test.ts
then checks the arithmetic against the files on disk: it fails if any test file
is reachable by no runner, or by two. Confirmed it fires by orphaning a file and
watching it name it. The partition is exact today:
gate 264 + browser 5 + perf 2 + mobile 9 = 280 = every *.test.ts in the repo
⚠️ One sharp edge, deliberate and documented: a file filter must match its
runner. `npm test -- test/mobile/keyboard.test.ts` now matches nothing and exits
GREEN having run zero tests, because the gate's config excludes that path.
CLAUDE.md recommended exactly that command in the on-screen-keyboard note; that
line now says `npm run test:mobile -- <file>`, and the Testing section calls out
the trap, since a green run of zero tests is worse than a red one.
Docs synced: CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, .github/CONTRIBUTING.md, README.md,
README.zh-CN.md, and two ci.yml comments that claimed only test/mobile/** was
excluded — it is three suites, and 5 Playwright files rather than 3.

Brings in https://github.com/christianhaberl/Codeman/pull/4 (three commits,
authorship preserved) and adapts it across the 211 commits master gained
since the branch was cut:
- App Settings control re-authored for the set-* surface (PR #278): a
set-row in Layout -> Tabs, replacing the old settings-item markup the
branch targeted. i18n description synced.
- Lineage arcs (PR #291, post-branch) are SKIPPED in sidebar layout:
computeLineagePath()'s U-bridge geometry hangs from the horizontal
strip's bottom edge and has no meaning against a vertical list. The
lineage strip-scroll listener now also redraws subagent/ultracode
connectors while the sidebar scrolls vertically.
- The desktop home tab rail (post-branch) defers to the sidebar: both dock
the session list flush left, and the rail would render z-ordered under it.
- Active-row reveal unified into _scrollActiveTabIntoView() (#257 landed on
master after the branch): sidebar mode branches to scrollIntoView
block:'nearest', and _fullRenderSessionTabs() restores scrollTop alongside
the #257 scrollLeft restore so ambient rebuilds cannot yank a mid-scroll
sidebar back to the top.
- Mobile active-tab hoisting the branch guarded against no longer exists on
master (removed by #257); kept master's order-stable render.
Verified: typecheck, lint, format:check, check:frontend-syntax,
check:public-assets, PostCSS parse of both merged stylesheets, the 26 new
jsdom tests, the structural guard suites, and the headless-Chromium harness
(scripts/verify-session-sidebar.mts) green across all seven layout states
at 1600/1000/393px against current master.

Captured live from an isolated instance running this branch: a regular
active tab beside a yellow waiting-for-input tab and a red needs-decision
tab. The gif covers one full 17.5s loop (LCM of the 2.5s red and 3.5s
yellow pulse cycles), so it loops cleanly.

Fifteen review findings on the fast-path rewrite plus one caught live, all
verified against a real 1.18.1 server before landing:
- sendwait picks a fresh seq (the epoch second) instead of a fixed 2, so a
second prompt to the same worker is typed instead of silently swallowed as
an already-applied duplicate; explicit seq remains for deliberate resends
- sendwait self-heals stranded delivery: an Ink repaint occasionally eats the
Enter (observed live), so a timed-out short first wait sends one bare \r and
re-waits by resending the identical frame as a tagged duplicate
- spawn_worker verifies the resolved casePath carries Codeman hooks (the same
/api/hook-event marker the server checks), refusing names that resolve to
linked or pre-existing hook-less directories instead of running the job in
what may be the user's real repo
- spawn_worker probes the trust dialog after a short 5s composer wait, not the
full 45s, restoring the ladder staging verbs.md documents; on a readiness
miss it deletes the half-spawned session and returns 1 with empty stdout,
so a prompt can never be typed blind into a trust dialog
- spawn_workers refuses duplicate case names and empty argument lists, and
keys result files by index
- section 1 is bash 3.2 compatible (indexed arrays, no declare -A), prints the
full delivered/timedOut/signal tuple per worker with an explicit line for a
missing result, deletes only workers whose turn really ended (a timeout
means still working), cleans up spawned siblings when any spawn fails, and
guards its mktemp
- last_text takes the previous answer as an optional second argument for
consecutive-turn reads (the transcript briefly serves the prior answer
after a stop, observed live)
- the stale duplicate bullets in section 1's closing list are gone
- reference/verbs.md joins the mode-list drift guard's file list
- README's skill inventory covers verbs.md and the new SKILL.md shape
- the changeset is minor so the shipped release matches the 1.19.0 stamp

PR #282 added pi across the prominent surfaces but left the enumerations
that read as exhaustive: the env-prefix allowlist (missing PI_*), the
external-CLI list for stop/blocked, cron's agent types (also missing
antigravity), the narrow-strip mode list, and the claude-only caveats in the
cron and Read My Mind guides. Both READMEs and the four affected docs now agree
with the schema.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
SessionMode gains 'pi', a first-class backend alongside Claude Code,
OpenCode, Codex, Gemini and Antigravity: its own PTY, tmux session, rose
tab identity, welcome button, run-mode entry, cron agentType, Docker and
remote-SSH command defaults, and clone-repo Brain option.
Pi is a different shape of CLI from the other four, and three decisions
follow from that:
- It has NO permission prompts and no sandbox, so there is no
--dangerously-skip-permissions analog and none was invented. The
privilege-shaped knob is the tri-state approveProjectTrust, which makes
pi load and EXECUTE repo-local .pi/extensions TypeScript and install
missing project packages. clampExternalCliBypassForOwner() therefore
puts pi in the MATERIALIZE branch: a non-granted multi-user owner gets
--no-approve even when no config was sent, because pi's own default is
a prompt the session user could answer themselves. That helper had zero
test coverage; it now has coverage for all four CLIs.
- Only the PI_ prefix joins the env allowlist. Pi's ~34 provider key vars
share no prefix and ALLOWED_ENV_PREFIXES is one global list with no mode
context, so admitting them would widen the allowlist for every mode at
once. Auth goes through pi's /login or the server's own environment.
--api-key is deliberately never wired: it would put a provider secret on
the spawn command line.
- pi stays OUT of isAltScreenStripMode(). Its default TUI renders into the
main screen with terminal-owned scrollback, and its 0.84.0 fullscreen
mode is runtime-switchable via /settings; that flip was measured to put
the pane into the alt screen, which the strip would have corrupted.
pi-cli-resolver.ts additionally sanity-probes `pi --version` and requires
semver-shaped output, because `pi` is a short generic name a stray binary
can shadow; GET /api/pi/status surfaces path and version so a
misresolution is diagnosable rather than presenting as a broken mode.
Docker installs pi in its own --ignore-scripts step so that flag cannot
affect the other four CLIs, and seeds its credentials per-file rather than
whole-dir (~/.pi/agent also holds sessions, extensions and package trees).
Verified end to end against pi 0.84.1 on an isolated instance: resolver
search-dir fallback, flag construction, piConfig persistence across a full
server restart, the trust prompt and its --no-approve suppression, the
rose Run button on the default daylight-blue skin (the nested skin block
eats per-mode gradients unless the rule lives inside it), and the buffer
local-echo policy, which pi tolerates where codex did not.

A docs pass landed in this worktree while the preview was up (a respawn loop on
the throwaway session it was serving), and it is the documentation this work
needed, so it is reviewed and kept rather than thrown away.
- docs/architecture-invariants.md gains a "Settings surface" section: the one
`:is()` scope and why the id-only list preserves specificity, the anatomy,
the two meanings of the rail, the deliberate two sizes, the phone strip, the
Add Case adapter, the flex-summary chevron trap, the Respawn ordering, the
retired tab chrome, and the live preview's clone-the-chip-icon rule.
- Settings paths are repointed everywhere they moved: Display -> Header &
Panels (header buttons, cron, multi-monitor, response viewer, file viewer),
Settings -> App Settings -> System -> Updates, Panels -> Header & Panels ->
Cross-session features (Read My Mind), Display -> Terminal & Input (gesture
control), Claude Model -> Models -> New Claude sessions.
- Stale counts refreshed (route modules, frontend modules, type files, config
files) and the typecheck script named.
- browser-testing-guide gains the three modal ids and the `set-*` selectors.
- The styles.css block comment covers all three modals.
Two claims it got wrong are corrected here: an external-CLI session opens
Session Options on the Session tab (`switchOptionsTab('context')`), not
Summary - measured in the browser - and the Cron toggle lives under Header &
Panels -> Scheduling, with no "Header Displays" step under it any more.
The Clone Repo tab shipped in 1.16.2 (#236) but only ever appeared in
docs/architecture-invariants.md, so nothing a user reads first mentioned
that a repository URL is a way to start a case. Adds it to More Features
and to the working-directory row of the create-a-session table, where the
question "how do I get a project in here" actually gets asked.

Ship `skills/codeman` as an installable Claude Code skill rather than a
repo-only reference, and fix six defects found while verifying it live.
Install layer:
- `codeman skill install [--case <name>]` / `codeman skill uninstall`.
Case names resolve through linked-cases.json first, mirroring the
server's resolveCasePath(), so a case linked in from outside
~/codeman-cases no longer fails with "Case not found".
- applyAgentSkill() / installAgentSkillInto() / removeAgentSkillFrom() in
hooks-config.ts. Copies are marker-owned, so an unmarked user-authored
skill is never touched, and a symlinked skill dir is refused (this
repo's own .claude/skills/codeman is a symlink to the source).
- Synced `agentSkillEnabled` setting, default OFF: schemas.ts,
ports/config-port.ts, server.ts, session-routes.ts (add-only injection
on Claude session create and quick-start), plus the App Settings toggle.
Skill content fixes, each reproduced before and after:
- Fail-closed `delete_session` replaces `is_self ... || curl -X DELETE`.
Shell state does not survive between agent tool calls, and an undefined
is_self exited 127, firing the `||` branch and deleting the caller's own
session with the one guard bypassed. The request now lives inside the
guard, so a lost preamble deletes nothing.
- clientId is a fixed literal instead of `agent-$$`. The pid changes per
tool call, so the documented resend-identical-request loop stopped being
a duplicate and retyped the prompt, submitting the turn twice.
- `last-response` is now the documented read path for claude and codex
workers. It returns clean transcript text; the terminal scrape it
replaces returns a wall of TUI repaint noise. Its transcript flush lags
the stop signal, so the recipes poll it rather than reading once.
- quick-start examples branch on `.success`. Previously a failed spawn
yielded the literal session id "null" and burned the whole readiness
budget before reporting jq noise instead of the cause.
- Documented that turning `agentSkillEnabled` off sweeps nothing, and
corrected the hooks-config comment that claimed a toggle-off sweep
exists. Per-case cleanup is `codeman skill uninstall --case <name>`.
- Documented that SESSION_BUSY means the 50-session cap on quick-start,
and that caseName resolves linked cases, so a generic name can land a
worker in a real repo.
Tests: test/agent-skill.test.ts covers install, refresh, idempotence,
marker ownership and symlink refusal against the real packaged source;
test/quick-start.test.ts covers injection behind the setting.

Two ways to keep the server running, split by how long it should last.
`codeman web -d` relaunches the same entry script detached (setsid), with
`--stop` and `--status` alongside it. A pidfile and log live in the data
dir. `nohup` is not what makes this work: Node re-arms SIGHUP to its
default disposition even when it inherits "ignore", and cli.ts handles
SIGHUP with a graceful shutdown, so a delivered HUP still stops the
server. Removing the shell's ability to send one is the fix.
`codeman service install|uninstall|status` writes and loads the systemd
user unit or the LaunchAgent, with the installing shell's PATH baked in
(launchd hands a job /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin, which finds neither a
Homebrew/nvm node nor tmux/claude). install.sh already covers one-liner
installs; this is for npm globals.
Both refuse to start when a server is already up on the data dir, since a
second instance on the shared tmux socket attaches PTYs to the first
one's live sessions. Both poll /api/status until the child answers or
dies rather than reporting a success they have not seen. `--stop` checks
the pid still looks like a Codeman server before signalling it.
The systemd unit name and launchd label move to config/service-names.ts
so install.sh, detectSupervisor() and service install cannot drift into
supervising two copies. Instance-scoped, unchanged for the default
instance.

The header tab strip stops working past roughly a dozen sessions: it wraps
into two or three rows, eats vertical space and still cannot be scanned.
This adds a vertical session list in a left <aside> as an ALTERNATIVE
layout — a filter box, a live count, and a 44px collapsed rail that keeps
the ambient signal (status dot, task badge) visible.
The strip is not removed. Settings -> Display -> Tab Bar -> Session List
Layout switches between them and the default stays 'header', so existing
users see no change until they opt in.
Structure: one #sessionTabs element, two mount points. applySessionListLayout()
re-parents the SAME node between #sessionTabsHost and #sessionSidebarList,
which is why there is no second renderer and no duplicated wiring — app.$()
caches getElementById results and never invalidates them, so a moved node
keeps every existing consumer (settings-ui, webview-tabs, the generated
gesture bundle, the mobile tests) working untouched.
Notable integration points:
- Below 1024px the sidebar is an off-canvas drawer overlaying the terminal;
closed it gets inert + aria-hidden so it cannot be tabbed into, and touch
swipes over it no longer switch sessions.
- Subagent and ultracode windows anchor to the right edge of a sidebar row
instead of its bottom, connector curves follow.
- Alt+B toggles; the chord is gated out of the PTY so xterm cannot also
write ESC b into a live session.
- Collapse state lives in its own localStorage key (the settings blob is
rebuilt from DOM controls on every save) and falls back to in-memory
intent where storage throws.
Verified: frontend syntax + public asset checks, tsc, eslint, 26 new jsdom
tests, and a headless-Chromium harness (scripts/verify-session-sidebar.mts)
that renders a synthetic 25-session fleet in both layouts at 1600/1000/393px
and asserts mount point, widths, inert/aria state and row count.

Adds a pointer to docs/extending-codeman.md at the end of the API section in
README.md and README.zh-CN.md, so the guide is reachable from where people
read about endpoints rather than only from CLAUDE.md.
Reading the README's programmatic guide alongside the new page surfaced three
errors in it, all now fixed:
- POST /api/sessions/:id/input takes `useMux`, not `useScreen`. The latter is
a legacy name that no longer appears in the schema.
- The page told integrators to send `\r` to submit. With `useMux: true` the
server delivers text and Enter as two separate writes (writeViaMux does
send-keys -l then send-keys Enter), so appending `\r` is wrong.
- "Unwrap the envelope" was incomplete: a few legacy GETs put the payload at
the top level, so the advice is now `body.data ?? body`.
Also cross-references the README's programmatic guide, which covers the
in-session case (CODEMAN_MUX, CODEMAN_API_URL, CODEMAN_SESSION_ID,
CODEMAN_HOOK_SECRET_FILE) that the new page deliberately does not duplicate,
and documents the optional clientId/seq exactly-once fields.

Antigravity (agy) was wired into the session layer but never propagated to
the surfaces around it, while Gemini CLI stayed documented as a consumer
product despite being enterprise-only since Google's cutover. Gemini keeps
full support; Antigravity now sits beside it everywhere.
Functional fixes:
- docker/agent.Dockerfile never installed agy, so a docker case with
mode 'antigravity' died on command-not-found. agy is not on npm, so it
gets its own installer step. --dir /usr/local/bin is load-bearing: the
default $HOME/.local/bin resolves to root's home at build time and is
unreachable by the `agent` user the container runs as. Verified inside
codeman/agent:base (v1.1.10, reachable as `agent`). Note the binary is
~190MB, the largest layer in the image.
- Welcome screen gained a Run Antigravity action, gated on agy being
present like the other CLI buttons, with a cyan identity matching the
toolbar run button and run-mode dot.
- install.sh now detects agy (search paths mirroring the resolver), counts
it as a satisfying AI CLI, and recommends it over Gemini in the install
hints. Detection only, no new auto-install path.
Docs corrected where they were factually wrong:
- architecture-invariants documented isExternalCliMode() as
opencode/codex/gemini when the code has included antigravity for a
while, said "all three modes", and omitted ANTIGRAVITY_ from the env
prefix allowlist row.
- cron-guide's agentType enum, cron-discovery's SessionMode, and
remote-sessions' RemoteCommandMode were all stale.
Also: README + README.zh-CN (five CLIs, Gemini marked enterprise-only),
package.json keyword, and comment drift in 8 places.
test/run-mode-ui.test.ts now covers the new welcome button; verified it
fails without the settings-ui wiring.
Antigravity nests its whole state under ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/, not
~/.antigravity, so the existing .gemini docker credential seed already
covers it. Recorded as a comment so nobody adds dead config later.
isAltScreenStripMode() deliberately still excludes antigravity: whether
its TUI needs the alt-screen strip is a behavioural question that needs a
real agy session, not a guess.

Closes#211. Copying from the terminal only worked through the browser
context menu, because xterm turns Ctrl+C into 0x03 and cancels the keydown,
so the muscle-memory copy failed silently and read as "no copy-paste at all".
With a selection, Ctrl+C now copies it, toasts, clears the selection and
sends nothing to the PTY. With no selection it falls through unchanged, so
the interrupt is intact. Ctrl+Shift+C is an explicit copy chord that never
falls through: an explicit copy that interrupts a running agent because the
selection happened to be empty would be a footgun.
Three details that keep the interrupt safe:
- The decision lives in attachCustomKeyEventHandler (terminal-ui.js) and the
no-selection path returns true WITHOUT preventDefault. xterm calls the
custom handler before its own cancel(), so returning false alone does not
cancel the event; the copy path therefore calls preventDefault explicitly,
or the browser would run its native copy on top of ours.
- copy-selection is a full registry entry (rebindable and disableable in App
Settings) whose action is deliberately absent from SHORTCUT_ACTIONS, the
same trick command-palette uses: the generic capture loop preventDefaults
every match it dispatches, which would cost the user the interrupt key.
- The gate is keydown-only, since the custom handler also runs for keypress
and keyup.
Copy goes through _copyText (Clipboard API, then hidden-textarea +
execCommand) rather than raw navigator.clipboard, because install.sh's LAN
option serves plain HTTP where navigator.clipboard is undefined; the
fallback steals focus, so the terminal is refocused afterwards.
Tests: test/terminal-copy-selection.test.ts pins the gate and the
SHORTCUT_ACTIONS invariant; test/terminal-copy-shortcut.test.ts drives real
key presses in chromium and asserts on the clipboard plus the bytes xterm
emitted (browser-driven, so excluded from test:ci like the other Playwright
suites). Verified manually on an isolated beta instance before landing.

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.

- One compact Mobile-Optimized Web UI section: the two current screenshots
(mobile-session-keyboard, mobile-toolbar-enter) side by side, comparison
table, condensed feature bullets, then QR auth
- Drop the outdated black-background phone screenshots
(mobile-landing-qr.png, mobile-session-active.png)
- Same restructure in README.zh-CN.md

The zerolag composition renders on a pure black page background, which
read as an outdated screenshot when placed right under the hero. Top of
the README now shows only the current-skin visuals (subagent gif + tour).

- Move the install one-liner (curl getcodeman.com/install | bash) and value bullets to the top so the pitch and quick start fit in the first scrolls
- Promote Zero-Lag Input Overlay to right after the hero, with a new side-by-side phone demo gif generated from the current zerolag master
- Switch all install commands (incl. WSL) to the getcodeman.com short URL
- Remove outdated screenshots (multi-session-dashboard.png, ralph-tracker-8tasks-44percent.png) and the old zerolag-demo.gif
- Remove Ralph tracker content: tracking section, API table, CLI example, autonomy-table row, architecture-diagram node
- Mirror all changes in README.zh-CN.md

Trims the repo root listing so the README is reached with less scrolling.
Only these two were movable; the other five root .md files are load-bearing
and stay put:
- README.md / README.zh-CN.md — the landing page and the language-switcher
entry point
- CLAUDE.md — Claude Code loads project instructions from the ROOT path;
moving it silently breaks every future session in this repo
- AGENTS.md — the agent-convention file Codex reads from the root and injects
as context (see the comments in session-routes.ts)
- CHANGELOG.md — the changesets default writer emits it next to package.json,
so moving it breaks `npm run version-packages`
GitHub officially resolves .github/SECURITY.md, so the Security policy tab
keeps working. Inbound links updated in both READMEs, CLAUDE.md and
docs/versioning-policy.md. CHANGELOG.md also names SECURITY.md but is left
alone: it is a historical record, not a live reference.
The move broke a link the other direction too: SECURITY.md pointed at
docs/security-architecture.md, which from .github/ resolved to
.github/docs/... — repointed to ../docs/. All relative links in the six
touched files verified resolving (62 links, 0 broken).

Two captures from an actual phone, replacing the placeholder-ish shots:
- Mobile table, middle cell: the full-height capture with the keyboard open,
showing the accessory bar and the new Enter button while answering a plan
prompt. Supersedes mobile-session-question-20260727.png from this morning,
which showed the pre-Enter toolbar.
- Touch-Optimized Interface: the cropped toolbar capture as a standalone
560px figure, where a near-square crop reads better than it would squeezed
into a 260px table cell.
Picking the tall capture for the table also fixes a row the earlier square
shot had left lopsided: the three cells now render 473 / 482 / 469px tall
instead of 473 / 263 / 469.
Adds a "Dedicated Enter button" bullet documenting the behaviour, including
why it replays the keypress (local-echo flush) rather than sending a bare
carriage return, and that shell launching moved into the Run dropdown.
Both READMEs updated so EN and zh-CN stay in sync.

Replaces the middle cell of the Mobile-Optimized Web UI table in both
READMEs. The new shot shows an agent's multiple-choice prompt being answered
on a phone, with the touch accessory bar and bottom toolbar visible, which
demonstrates more of the mobile UI than the old idle-session capture.
Uses a dated filename per the convention the other 2026-07 images follow.
That also avoids GitHub's image cache serving the old picture, which an
in-place overwrite of mobile-session-idle.png would have risked. The old
file is left on disk so any existing external link to it keeps working.

Two live shields.io badges in the header block of both READMEs, linking to
the contributors graph and the commit history. Colors reuse the existing
palette (3b82f6, 1e3a5f) and keep the flat-square style.
Verified both endpoints render real data matching the GitHub API
(contributors: 13, commits: 1.5k against 1,460 on master) and that master
is the default branch, so the /commits/master link target is correct.

Replaces the dated subagent-spawn.png with the recaptured floating-windows
still (clean header, three haiku Explore agents, connector lines) and adds
the live ultracode workflow-run window below the feature bullets, in both
READMEs. Dated filenames so caches never serve a stale render.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replaces the 29MB subagent-demo.gif reference with a recaptured 6s loop:
three haiku Explore agents pop as floating windows (25fps through the pop,
bayer dither, 1080px) on the new clean header. Adds the annotated dashboard
tour screenshot below the feature bullets in both READMEs. Old GIF file kept
on disk so external hotlinks stay alive; new files use dated names so caches
can never serve a stale render.

The loopback-only default was safe but left most installs unreachable from
the devices people actually use. The installer now asks at the end of setup:
1) Any device on your network (0.0.0.0), the default. Prompts for a
dashboard password (confirmed twice); skipping it requires an explicit
confirmation and prints a big red warning as the final output.
2) This machine only (127.0.0.1), the safer option, for tunnel/Tailscale
setups.
The choice flows into the systemd unit, the launchd plist (values escaped
for both formats), the run-now exec path, and the printed URLs (LAN IP
detection included). Non-interactive installs keep the safe loopback
default unless CODEMAN_HOST is preset; the server binary's own default
binding is unchanged.

Add a short what-is-Codeman pitch block with deep links after the hero GIF,
npm version + GitHub stars badges, and a closing star/issues CTA.

Resolves the CLAUDE.md paragraph conflict with #162, skips the
windowTitle recompute for solo-session renders so a detached window
cannot reset the push-notification hostTitle prefix to the default,
and prettier-formats test/mobile/devices.ts (came in unformatted via
the #162 merge; CI format:check only covers src/**).

Quick Start now documents the consent-first flow (every system change is
prompted; the closing menu chooses terminal / background service / skip),
safe re-runs (finished installs update in place with local changes stashed
and the service restart verified; interrupted installs resume full setup;
install.sh update/uninstall), and the headless contract (system-changing
steps abort without CODEMAN_NONINTERACTIVE=1). The AI CLI note now says all
four CLIs are auto-detected with an install-or-skip choice when none exist,
and the background-service section points at installer menu option 2 before
the manual instructions. Same changes mirrored in README.zh-CN.md.

README.md + README.zh-CN.md:
- New "Remote SSH Sessions" section (durable remote tmux, auto-reconnect,
discover/attach with detach-not-kill, shared sessions, injection-safe ssh)
- New "Session Manager & Command Palette" subsection (pinning survives kill,
name retention on resume, cross-device tab order sync)
- Multi-user quick start right after installation (users add + --multiuser),
and the zh-CN README gains the full Multi-User Mode section it was missing
- Security: document the configurable startup permission mode (skip/auto/
normal/allowedTools) and the multi-user auto downgrade
- Cron header button noted as opt-in (Header Displays); API section counts
refreshed (~190 handlers / 20 route modules) with pin, session-order and
unified endpoints; Development now recommends npm run test:ci
CLAUDE.md (/init audit): session-order.ts in the Session row, PR #157
session-manager polish appended to the unified-list pattern, opt-in Cron
button documented, route/SSE counts refreshed (20 modules, ~188 handlers,
~146 events)
install.sh: the post-install "How would you like to run Codeman?" menu (and
the CLI picker + yes/no prompts) read from stdin, which under curl | bash is
the pipe, so choices were impossible and the script silently fell through to
the default. New has_tty()/read_reply() helpers prompt via /dev/tty whenever
a real terminal exists (same approach the sudo path already used) and only
fall back to defaults when there is genuinely none, now with an info line
saying so. Verified both paths with a pty harness (script(1)) and setsid.

Brings the docker session-mode deep-review work (intended for the skipped
1.4.2) onto the 1.5.x line: deterministic-conversation-id resume across
container stop/recreate, config-drift detection + POST /api/docker-cases/:name/recreate,
docker model-picker support, import-manifest hardening, remote-daemon (context/
daemonHost) correctness, comma-in-path rejection, and the zh-CN README re-translation.
Conflicts resolved to preserve BOTH the multi-user security scoping already on
master (ownership checks, workingDir confinement, permission downgrade) AND the
docker features. Version kept at master's 1.5.0 (the 1.4.2 bump is superseded;
a fresh changeset bumps to 1.5.1). tsc, eslint, and test:ci all green (3548 tests).

Stamp the plan doc with shipped-by-phase status; add the multi-user Key Patterns
entry + State Files + case-spaces note to CLAUDE.md; add a multi-user section to
the security architecture (threat model: workspace separation, not a security
boundary) and a README opt-in section; add a minor changeset.

CLAUDE.md (the 1.4.1 release commit only reformatted it): document the
seeded credential-isolation model (resolveDockerClaudeArtifacts /
resolveDockerCredentialArtifacts, buildSeamlessClaudeConfig), the
auto-built agent base image (ensureAgentBaseImage + docker:imageBuild*
SSE events), the C.UTF-8 image locale, w<n>-<case> tab naming, and the
opt-in File Viewer header button; bump the SSE registry count to ~138.
README.md: add Gemini to every CLI enumeration (tagline, install, WSL,
Multi-CLI, security, architecture diagram), split the Docker section's
hardening bullet into hardening + seamless-auth/credential-isolation,
note the base image now auto-builds on first use, add a File Viewer
bullet to More Features.
README.zh-CN.md: mirror all of the above, add the previously missing
"Isolated Docker Sessions" section and a Docker bullet in More
Features, fix the Node badge to 22+, and run prettier over the file.
