Session List Layout gains a third option. The old "Left sidebar" becomes
"Left sidebar simple" and is unchanged down to the byte; the new "Left sidebar"
puts on each row what the desktop home rail and the phone overview already show:
when the session was first created, how long it has been in the state it is in,
and a status pill naming that state.
A docked column is not a tab strip. It has width to spare and a row per session
either way, and "name + folder" is the whole story a TAB can tell, not the whole
story there is. This is the information that was missing, and it already existed
one surface over.
Both sidebar values are the same layout, and both set data-session-list="sidebar";
the row detail rides on a separate data-sidebar-detail attribute. That split is
the load-bearing decision here: every one of the ~25 isSessionSidebarActive()
call sites and every html[data-session-list="sidebar"] rule in styles.css and
mobile.css keeps matching both variants without being touched. A third
data-session-list value would have meant auditing and editing all of them.
- Stored values: 'header', 'sidebar' (simple), 'sidebar-rich'. Anyone already on
'sidebar' keeps exactly the layout they picked — the rename is label-only.
- State classification and the "how long has it been like this" anchor come from
_mobileOverviewState() / _mobileOverviewSince(), not re-derived, so the three
surfaces cannot disagree about what "working" means. A working pane repaints
~1/s, so its duration is measured from the turn's last Enter: a running turn
reads "working 12m", not "0m".
- Stamps refresh in place on a 20s clock rather than by re-rendering — a rebuild
would restart every load spinner and alert animation in the list, twice a
minute. The clock runs only while rich rows are on screen, and is stopped from
both render paths and from applySessionListLayout().
- The incremental render path updates the pill, the accent class and the since
anchor; a tick alone cannot see a state change, and a new turn re-stamps
lastSubmitAt without changing state.
- applySessionListLayout() now re-renders on a DETAIL change too. simple <-> rich
leaves data-session-list on 'sidebar' both times, and the meta line is emitted
by the row template rather than toggled by CSS, so the old layout-only test
would have flipped the setting and repainted nothing.
- Width: 300px for the extra line. The collapsed 44px rail and the handheld
drawer are both explicitly held back from it — the desktop rule is (0,3,1) and
would otherwise out-specify mobile.css's (0,2,1) drawer base and pin a 320px
phone's drawer to 300px.
- Missing/stale mobile-overview.js degrades to a row with no meta line rather
than throwing and taking the whole tab strip down.
15 new tests cover the attribute split, the solo-window override, the
detail-change re-render, the row model, both render paths, the clock lifecycle
and the mobile width guard.

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.

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.

The footer buttons shipped with class="btn btn-secondary/primary", but no
.btn or .btn-secondary rule exists in this codebase, so all four rendered
as unstyled UA buttons. Moved them to the btn-toolbar convention every
other modal footer uses, with a scoped flex-row footer rule (btn-toolbar
is display:flex, block-level) mirroring the runSummaryModal footer.
Send's accent needs a (0,4,0) re-assert: the skin block's bare
.btn-toolbar rule is (0,2,1) under html:not([data-skin="og"]) and beats
.btn-toolbar.btn-primary (0,2,0), the same specificity trap CLAUDE.md
documents for mobile.css. Scoped to this modal; the repo-wide greying of
btn-primary on non-OG skins is pre-existing and left as a design call.
The empty-result copy now points at the steer note sitting right below
it ("Add a steer note and Rethink to try again"), zh-CN updated.
Verified with the steer E2E (still green) plus desktop, phone (390px),
and error-phase screenshots; static guards extended to pin the footer
convention and the accent re-assert.

Adds the optional free-text steer note to the Read My Mind modal: a
dashed input under the suggestions ("no, I meant the mobile bug") that
rides along as `steer` on every Rethink. The API already accepted it;
this wires the frontend end of the contract.
- Shown whenever Rethink is live (ready AND empty-result phases),
hidden only while a prediction runs; typed text survives re-runs.
- Enter in the field triggers Rethink, mirroring the prompt field's
Enter-to-send; a fresh open clears it with the rethink memory.
- Trimmed and capped to the schema's 2000 chars on the way out; a
plain open still sends an empty body (neither steer nor rejected).
- zh-CN strings for the placeholder and aria-label, phone-sized
touch target in mobile.css, static guards in the phase-3 test.
Verified with a browser E2E against a live dev server (stubbed predict
endpoint): payload contents, phase visibility, Enter wiring, and
reset-on-reopen all asserted with real keystrokes.

The Read My Mind modal grows up and reaches phones:
- Alternate suggestions (the predictor's verify/redirect kinds) now render
as tappable rows below the main field. Tapping one swaps it into the
editable field; the edit you were making folds back into the row you
leave, so toggling between alternates never loses typing. Rethink now
records the WHOLE shown set (main + alternates) as rejected.
- Phones get a 🧠 key on the keyboard accessory bar (both simple and
extended layouts), gated on the same synced readMyMindEnabled setting
via an rmm-enabled marker class on the BAR element: setMode() rebuilds
the buttons' innerHTML, so per-key state would be wiped. Synced at init
and re-synced by applyHeaderVisibilitySettings() on every settings
apply, so a live toggle needs no reload. The header button stays off
phones.
- On phones the modal renders as a small dialog (mirrors modal-sm) instead
of the full-screen default, with wrap-friendly finger-sized footer
buttons. Not modal-sm itself: that caps desktop width at 340px and this
modal wants 560px there.
- On touch devices the ready/swap paths no longer focus the field, so the
OS keyboard does not pop over the alternates that just rendered.
- New static guard test/readmymind-phone-key.test.ts pins the dual-template
key, the marker-class gating, the phone-hidden header button, the
small-dialog phone modal, and the no-innerHTML discipline.
Part 2 of phase 3 (rethink steering, the free-text steer note) is next;
the API already accepts steer.

The feature as pitched in docs/readmymind-plan.md: pressing the header
brain button predicts the prompt you were about to type, from the case's
intent profile plus everything the session already knows.
Backend:
- readmymind-context.ts: pure budgeted context assembler (9 ranked
sources: pending approval dialog, user goals, last assistant turn tail,
recent prompts, tool activity, git workspace signals, away context,
sibling sessions, rethink state; 30 KB budget, whole-section drop from
the bottom of the ranking, trust tiers stated in the prompt)
- readmymind-collectors.ts: transcript tail reader (the live watcher
keeps only a 500-char snippet) and git signal collection (execFile,
2s timeout, skipped for remote-SSH cases)
- readmymind-predictor.ts: one-shot claude -p in a throwaway tmux
session, opus by default (readMyMindModel setting), strict JSON
contract with 1-3 suggestions (continue / verify / redirect), newline
stripping, 90s timeout; mutable singleton so route tests can stub it
- POST /api/sessions/:id/readmymind: claude-mode only (400), one
prediction in flight per session (409 CONFLICT), rethink body
{ steer, rejected }; ownership via findSessionOrFail
Frontend:
- readmymind-ui.js (loadorder 11.3): header brain button, marker-hidden
until readMyMindEnabled is ON, desktop only (phone key is phase 3);
modal with editable suggestion + rationale and Send / Insert /
Rethink / Dismiss; suggestion text rendered via value/textContent only
and nothing ever auto-sends
- App Settings -> Panels checkbox for readMyMindEnabled; en + zh-CN
strings
Verified end to end against a live isolated instance: transcript
capture, a real opus prediction grounded in the stated goals, rethink
steering, the 409, and the browser modal incl. Insert leaving the text
unsubmitted on the composer. 41 new unit/route tests; full test:ci
sweep green (4680 tests).

The welcome overlay centers ~560px of content in a ~1400px window, so both
gutters are dead space. The left one now carries the open tabs as a vertical
list (home-sessions.js): one row per live session plus saved web tabs, in TAB
order rather than by urgency, because the row badges are the Alt+1..9 indices.
Clicking a row enters that session.
Working state is deliberately the phone's, exactly: a pulsing green dot ringed
by the same tab-load-spin the tab strip uses while a tab loads, now with a green
halo added on both surfaces so "working" reads identically wherever you see it.
The column is position:absolute so the centered content never moves, which is
why it needs a width gate in two places (HOME_SESSIONS_MIN_WIDTH = 1180 in JS,
a max-width: 1179px media query as the backstop for a resize that outruns the
matchMedia listener). A test pins the two equal. State classification is reused
from mobile-overview.js rather than re-derived, so the two home screens cannot
disagree about what counts as needing you.
Phones keep the mobile overview, and their brand "C" was a 0.85rem inline span,
roughly a 12x13px target on the one control that gets you back to that screen.
It is now a 44px-wide button filling the full header height, with the glyph
scaled to match. 44 is horizontal only: the phone header is pinned to 36px and
clips overflow, so a true 44x44 would mean taking height off the terminal.
Verified end to end against a real isolated instance (own tmux socket + data
dir): 18 browser checks covering render, live update through the tab renderer,
the working dot's animation/glow/ring, row click, the narrow-window gate, the
phone fallback, and a real touch tap on the far corner of the new hit box.

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.

Hovering a session tab no longer grows it. The three per-tab icons now
live in a .tab-actions wrapper that overlays the tab's right edge on
hover-capable devices: the icons slide in while the title (and any
badges) slide left by a per-tab --tab-slide distance computed in
_applyTabHoverSlide(), clipped at the left edge of .tab-info so the
readable tail (the :comment suffix) stays visible. Keyboard focus
reveals the overlay via :has(:focus-visible), so a mouse click on the
gear does not pin it open. Touch devices keep the previous in-flow
behavior (the wrapper adds no width in flow, and the legacy tap-reveal
rules are preserved under @media (hover: none)).
The open-in-a-new-window (pop-out) button is now hidden by default and
opt-in via App Settings -> Tab Bar -> "Pop-out Button on Tabs"
(showTabDetachButton, per-device, absent from SettingsUpdateSchema like
the other display keys). A tab whose session is already detached keeps
its icon as the re-focus affordance regardless of the setting.

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.

Closes#212. The file-preview overlay can now edit workspace text files in
place, phone-first: agent writes a file, you review it in the viewer, tweak
two lines, save, tell the agent to continue.
Backend (file-routes.ts, policy in src/config/file-editing.ts):
- GET file-content?edit=1: read-for-edit that never truncates (a truncated
buffer must never become an edit buffer), 512KB cap (413 over it), and
returns the sha256 hash + detected EOL the client echoes back on save.
- PUT /api/sessions/:id/file-content: edit-in-place only, with no O_CREAT
anywhere in the handler. Confinement matches the read path (realpath +
workspace boundary + ownership via findSessionOrFail), plus sensitive-path
and attachment-guard blocklists, a .git subtree deny, and an extension
allowlist (svg and env deliberately excluded). Optimistic concurrency via
baseHash: mismatch is a 409 unless force. Writes are wx-temp + fchmod +
fsync + rename, closing the validate-then-write TOCTOU window.
- Corruption guards: NUL sniff + UTF-8 round-trip compare (refuses binary
and latin-1), and server-side EOL re-application so a textarea's LF
normalization cannot rewrite every line of a CRLF file.
- Plain reads gain an additive editable flag the UI keys the button off.
Frontend (panels-ui.js + overlay markup/styles):
- Edit button on editable text previews; textarea editor with Save/Cancel,
dirty indicator, discard-confirm on cancel/close, and a conflict dialog
that offers overwrite (force) when the file changed on disk mid-edit.
- Phone: full-bleed window sized by --app-height so the editor and Save bar
track the OS keyboard; 16px editor font (iOS zoom guard); no autofocus.
- zh-CN strings for the new chrome.
Tests: pure policy unit tests plus a route suite that deliberately does NOT
mock node:fs. It runs against a real temp workspace so symlink escapes,
write-through of in-workspace symlinks, mode preservation, CRLF round-trip,
409/force, and the no-create property are exercised for real. Also verified
end to end on an isolated beta instance: 39-check curl matrix, Playwright
desktop flow (real clicks and typing, bytes asserted on disk, live conflict
with an external rewrite), and a 393px phone profile.

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.

Adds Antigravity as a sixth CLI backend alongside Claude Code, shell, OpenCode,
Codex and Gemini, following the existing pluggable-resolver pattern.
- `utils/antigravity-cli-resolver.ts` resolves the CLI, mirroring the other
resolvers; `GET /api/antigravity/status` reports availability and path.
- `ANTIGRAVITY_*` joins the `ALLOWED_ENV_PREFIXES` allowlist in schemas.ts, so
env overrides stay CLI-scoped rather than blanket-forwarded.
- Session, tmux-manager, mux-interface and types carry the new mode; secrets are
injected via socket-scoped `tmux setenv`, never on the spawn command line, so
the mode requires tmux with no direct PTY fallback like the other external CLIs.
- Frontend: Run-dropdown entry, agent-type option, `ag` tab badge and toolbar
colours. `runAntigravity()` routes remote/docker cases through
`POST /api/quick-start` and skips the local status probe for them.
Tests: test/antigravity-mode.test.ts, plus run-mode-ui and system-routes coverage.
