The badge alone left the row in NEEDS YOU, which is the thing the issue was
about. The fix is the alert that does not fire.
An idle prompt from a session that is watching its own background work now
opens ALREADY acknowledged. `hook-event-routes` passes `Session.watching` to
`notePrompt()`, which sets `acknowledgedAt` and records why in a new
`acknowledgedReason`. Nothing new suppresses anything: `acknowledge()` has
always meant "the alert this prompt armed is spent", and the prompt itself
stays pending, answerable and available as Read My Mind context. A wrong label
therefore costs a card that does not blink, never an alert that was never
created.
Every surface follows from that. The broadcast carries the reason, so a live
page declines to arm the tab alert and raises no desktop notification. The push
is skipped, since a false alarm is hardest to ignore on a phone. A reloading
page reads `acknowledgedAt` in `seedApprovals()`, which it already did. And
`classifySession()` now reads it too, which is a pre-existing bug fixed here:
acknowledging on one device cleared the alert everywhere except `codeman tui`.
It re-arms for free, because the next idle prompt supersedes the item and is
built fresh. Only `idle` is eligible, so a dialog that blocks the agent still
goes red whatever else it started.
The label is pane-derived and therefore prompt-injectable, so it is now read
from the last two rows of the screen only, with Claude's pattern anchored on
the `·` its footer joins items with, ANSI-stripped and length-capped at the
source. An agent that prints `· 1 monitor ·` into its own output finds no
match.
Verified on an isolated beta: a session that armed a monitor took its idle
prompt acknowledged with no alert on any surface, wore the badge, and showed
"quiet, watching 1 monitor" on its still-answerable card; the same session with
the monitor killed alerted normally on the next prompt. `test/watching-no-alert.test.ts`
pins both directions across all four surfaces.

Persist the 'I checked it' state of yellow idle tab alerts across reloads and devices.

- SKILL.md: forbid the standalone preamble check and pre-spawn recon turns
(measured: two wasted model turns cost ~12s of a 28s two-worker run; the
hardened flow measured 20.2s cold / 12.8s warm end to end)
- Lineage lines: dip now hangs from the strip's bottom edge (cap 104 -> 64,
no stacked row offsets), fixing the deep bow in wrapped strips and keeping
row-1 arcs off row-2 tab labels; per-child color palette (skin blue first,
then matrix green, pink, violet, red, turquoise, orange) via an inline
--lineage-color custom property
- Session Options -> Session: per-TAB pop-out (open-in-window) button override
on top of the general showTabDetachButton setting; per-device localStorage
map rendered as the tab-show-detach class
- Tab alerts: seed the pending-hook state machine from GET /api/approvals
regardless of the approvals-inbox setting (reloads used to lose the red tab
entirely with the inbox off), clear unconditionally on approval_resolved,
and repaint the alert as a steady red/yellow ring + glow + status dot on a
::before overlay so it stays visible on the selected (active) tab until the
permission is actually resolved
- docs: worker warm-pool design sketch (verified numbers baked in)

One switch now governs the whole feature: with approvalsInboxEnabled off
(the default), sendPushNotifications strips the actions and approvalId
from permission push payloads, so the buttons no longer render at all
(pre-inbox they rendered and did nothing). The page-side action relay is
gated the same way for stale notifications sent before the toggle
flipped. Only the store and answer endpoints keep running, so enabling
the toggle surfaces anything already pending immediately.
sendPushNotifications is async now (cached settings read); all call
sites were already fire-and-forget. Covered by three new payload tests
alongside the existing hostTitle suite.

Owner decision: every Approvals Inbox UI surface (header bell, drawer,
phone overview answer strips, reload seeding) now requires enabling
approvalsInboxEnabled in App Settings -> Panels; only an explicit true
turns it on. The store, endpoints, and push Approve/Deny actions keep
running regardless (the push buttons are already opt-in per subscription).
Also replaces em-dashes with plain punctuation across the newly authored
comments, docs, and strings.

Permission dialogs, AskUserQuestion questions and idle prompts from every
session now land in a server-side inbox (web/approval-inbox.ts, one item per
session, claude-mode only) and are answerable in place: a header bell + drawer
on desktop, inline answer strips on the phone overview's NEEDS YOU rows, and
working push Approve/Deny buttons (previously dead ends, now answered straight
from sw.js with no tab open). Pending alerts survive reloads because the
frontend seeds from GET /api/approvals on init.
Answering sends the digit / Esc / prompt text through the existing tmux input
path; option digits are accepted only when they match options parsed from the
captured pane frame, and the answer path re-captures the pane first so a
dialog that already left the screen refuses with 409 instead of typing into
the composer. New elicitation_complete / elicitation_response hook matchers
resolve question items the moment they are answered in the terminal;
refreshStaleCodemanHooks heals existing cases.
Verified end-to-end against a live claude session: a real AskUserQuestion
dialog parsed into 5 option buttons and was answered from the drawer.
