Two defects that only a real container exposes.
The probe chained `command -v X && echo X` with semicolons, and a script's exit
status is its last command's. A container without the last probed CLI made the
whole `sh -lc` exit 1, so a perfectly healthy container with tmux and claude was
reported as "could not exec into the container". A missing CLI is data here, not
failure, so the script now ends with `exit 0`.
containerWorkdir defaulted to hostWorkspacePath. That default holds for an owned
container only because the create-time bind mount puts the host directory at that
exact path; attaching mounts nothing, so the two are independent facts. A host
path absent inside the container makes `docker exec --workdir` fail with an OCI
chdir error that surfaces in the pane as a bare "execvp failed". The preflight now
proves the directory exists inside the container and refuses at link time.
The Docker tab gains an "Attach to an existing container" toggle. Ticking it
swaps the create-time fields (image, network, advanced) — which describe a
`docker create` attaching never runs — for the container name, and routes the
submit to the adopt endpoint.
Reuses the existing linkDockerCase flow end to end: only the final call differs.
The docker-host upsert still applies, since it is what resolves the
engine/context/daemon for `docker exec`; its create-time fields are simply never
read for an attached case.
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.

Fifteen review findings on the dsh mode, the serious ones first:
- Multi-user: DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL joins the owner-clamped env keys.
_configureDeepSeek() forwards the SERVER's own DEEPSEEK_API_KEY into
every dsh pane and applyEnvOverrides() lands after it, so a non-granted
owner who could redirect the base URL would have the operator's key sent
as a bearer credential to a host of their choosing.
- Wait registry: until=stop/blocked is refused on docker and remote-SSH
dsh sessions (new deepSeekBridgeUnreachable fact in sessionHookOptions).
The HERDR triple is set via LOCAL tmux setenv, which crosses neither
docker exec nor ssh, so such a session can never post a hook event and
the wait burned its whole timeout on every turn.
- Approvals: a dsh item is an ALERT, not an answerable card. The answer
route refuses (the '1'/Esc keystrokes are Claude-dialog-shaped and the
option parser cannot read a third-party TUI's frames, so an answer was a
blind keystroke into a foreign composer), and the push notification
carries no Approve/Deny actions for dsh sessions.
- Status shim (v3): --seq is forwarded and the server drops stale retried
reports inside a 60s window (the TUI retries with backoff, so a retried
'working' could land after 'blocked' and resolve an approval whose
dialog was still on screen); 4xx responses exit 0 instead of retrying,
so one misconfigured session cannot feed the auth rate-limit bucket
until the hook endpoint 429s for the whole instance.
- Web-UI server: concurrent starts are serialized through a lock (two
racing POSTs used to pick the same port and orphan the winner), and the
readiness poll / timeout paths only clear or stop the singleton while it
is still theirs. First click actually opens the tab now
(refreshWebviews, not the nonexistent loadWebviews). DELETE
/api/deepseek/web requires the privileged grant in multi-user mode.
- Cron: deepseek jobs run the same two-part launch gate as the HTTP
create paths (impl moved into the resolver so all three share it) and no
longer stamp a Claude default model on the session.
- Parity sweeps: quick-start's docker branch rejects deepSeekConfig like
the remote branch; the Ralph auto-enable list gained deepseek;
HookEventType gained agent_working; the phone overview run menu filters
managed webview records like the desktop menu.
- install.sh: the dsh identity probe closes stdin (under curl|bash a
child that reads stdin eats the rest of the script), bounds the exec
with timeout where available, and is memoized to one scan per install.
- Welcome screen: .welcome-btn-deepseek styled in the #4d6bfe brand
identity (it rendered as an unstyled UA-grey button); stale markup
comment about the web shortcut rewritten; clamp docs updated.

Three review findings on the detailed-rows feature, all in its edge cases:
- The App Settings width select consulted the handheld defaults blob
(tabRailWidth: 256) BEFORE the rich-aware default, which the renderer
never reads — so a tablet's unsized rich rail rendered 320 while the
dialog said 256, and a routine Save persisted the 256 (below the 288px
tight threshold, permanently). The chain now mirrors
applyTabRailWidth()'s actual resolution.
- _setTabRailWidth() re-rendered on a compact flip but never re-ran
applyTabWrapSettings(), the one owner of the folder line, whose railRich
input reads the compact class this function just toggled. A rich rail
dragged below 240px kept emitting folder rows — persistently, for a
stored width < 240, since the boot wrap pass runs before the class is
first applied. The wrap pass now re-runs on the flip, with exactly one
render either way.
- Both reset affordances (handle dblclick, Enter on the handle) reset to
the hardcoded 256 even on a rich rail, landing it below the tight
threshold; both now resolve the rich-aware default (320), via a new
optional defaultWidth input on resolveTabRailKeyboardWidth().

Clicking "DeepSeek web UI..." opened two tabs: the web tab asked for, and a
shell tab running the server next to it. The shell was deliberate - the server
lived in an ordinary session so it was visible, scrollable, killable and died
with its tab, and nothing new had to supervise a long-lived HTTP server. That
reasoning was sound and the result was still wrong in use: opening a dashboard
should open one tab, and after the first launch the terminal is pure noise.
The server moves to a background child process owned by a new
`src/deepseek-web-server.ts`, behind `POST /api/deepseek/web`. What the session
gave away for free is now explicit, which is most of the module:
- Exactly one server. A second click reuses the running one instead of racing
it for a port; the session flow could not do this at all, because two clicks
were simply two sessions.
- Restarted when the requested authority changes. `--trusted-host` fences dsh's
own /api against the browser authority, and a Codeman reachable at both
loopback and a tailnet name has two. Reusing a server fenced for the other
origin renders a page whose every call 403s, which reads as a broken
dashboard rather than a misconfigured one, so a mismatch restarts instead.
- Killed on shutdown. The child is detached so its whole plugin tree can be
signalled at once, which also means it would outlive Codeman and hold its
port against the next start - the exact EADDRINUSE this feature already got
wrong once.
- Boot output captured and returned. With no shell tab there is nowhere else
for a stack trace to land, so a failed spawn reports its own tail.
The endpoint is fenced at the same bar as the profile installer and for the
same reason: booting a dsh profile executes the plugin code in it, so this is a
privileged action even though it reads as "open a page". `authority` comes from
the client (`location.host`) because only the browser knows which origin is in
play, and it is regex-confined at the schema boundary - defence in depth behind
the argv-array spawn, admitting host:port in the shapes a browser authority can
take and nothing readable as a second argument.
`GET /api/deepseek/web-port` is gone; port selection moved into the supervisor,
which is the thing that knows whether a server is already running. The two
client-side probe helpers went with it, since the server now owns the wait.
Verified over the tailnet authority end to end: no session is created (session
count unchanged, one tab), the server runs on 3081 beside the user's own dsh
web on 3080, status reports the tailnet authority, and the proxied dashboard
renders with zero 4xx. Full gate green (6148 passed, +6).
The `Run > DeepSeek web UI...` shortcut failed three ways at once against a real
install, and the three are independent.
1. It hardcoded `--port 3080`. That is dsh web's OWN default, which makes it
precisely the port a DeepSeek user is most likely to be serving on already,
so the launch died with EADDRINUSE against the user's own server. The port
now comes from `GET /api/deepseek/web-port`, which walks 3080..3119 for a
free loopback port by BINDING it (a connect probe cannot tell "free" from
"listening but not answering yet").
2. It opened the tab unconditionally. The crashed server left a saved dashboard
pointing at nothing, with the failure only visible in a shell tab nobody had
a reason to look at. The launch now polls the existing webview probe until
the URL answers, and on timeout reports the error naming the shell tab
instead of persisting a dead dashboard.
3. The saved tab was untrusted, so the frame was sandboxed without
`allow-same-origin` and the dashboard was broken twice over: the dsh
client-runtime reads `localStorage` while loading its plugins and died there
("the document is sandboxed and lacks the 'allow-same-origin' flag"), and an
opaque-origin frame sends `Origin: null`, so dsh's own trust fence 403'd
every `/api` call no matter which authority `--trusted-host` named. Passing
`location.host` only means anything once the frame actually carries that
origin, so `--trusted-host` had never once done its job. The managed tab is
now created `trusted: true`.
That trade is real and deliberate: a trusted proxied frame is same-origin
with Codeman and can reach Codeman's API. It is defensible only because this
dashboard is an agent harness Codeman just started itself, on loopback, which
can already run code as the user. It is not a precedent for trusting
third-party dashboards, which is why it is set at this one call site rather
than defaulted.
Separately, the shortcut listed its own dashboard twice: once as the menu entry
that starts it and once as the row that entry had written on the previous click.
Webviews now carry an optional `managed` marker, managed rows are filtered out
of the saved-dashboard list, and a relaunch repoints the existing row rather
than stacking one dead dashboard per restart (which the per-launch port would
otherwise guarantee). `managed` is declared in the schema because a plain
`z.object` strips undeclared keys, so an undeclared marker would never survive
the round trip.
`DEEPSEEK_WEB_PORT` is gone from constants.js; its doc comment asserted that a
hand-started `dsh web` and the shortcut "land on the same place and share one
saved tab", which is the bug stated as a feature.
Verified on a real install with the user's own `dsh web` holding 3080: the
shortcut takes 3081, the server answers, exactly one DeepSeek entry shows in the
run menu, and the proxied dashboard renders its workspaces and completes its own
API calls (the previously-403'd `api/settings.describe` now succeeds). Full gate
green (6142 passed), typecheck/lint/format/public-assets clean.
Two review nits on the vertical rail's detailed rows.
1. The tab-rail-tight rule (below 288px) hides `.tab-meta-created`, and its
comment claimed the value "survives in the row's title attribute either way".
It did not: the only title carrying it lived ON that element, and a
`display: none` element has no hover target, so the created stamp was not
shrunk but gone with no way to ask for it. Rather than just correcting the
comment, `_sidebarRichMetaHTML()` now puts BOTH absolute stamps on the
`.tab-meta` line itself, so the pill and the gaps around the stamps remain as
hover targets. An item's own title still wins where the item is visible.
2. applyTabOrientation() decided whether applyTabWrapSettings() had already
re-rendered by comparing `_tallTabsEnabled` before and after. That reads an
UNDEFINED previous value as "it rendered", but applyTabWrapSettings()
deliberately renders nothing on its first call ever (it only establishes the
baseline: `prevTallTabs !== undefined && prevTallTabs !== showFolder`). So on
a first call that also flips the folder row, neither function rendered and the
rows stayed stale. Reachable when the pre-paint script throws and leaves the
layout attributes on their catch-branch fallbacks for applyTabOrientation() to
correct. The guard now mirrors applyTabWrapSettings()'s own condition.
Both new tests were run against the unfixed code first and fail there, which is
the only thing that makes them regression tests. (The third, "does not render
twice", passes either way by design: it pins that fix 2 did not introduce a
double rebuild.)
Verified in a real browser against a live server with two sessions, driving the
narrowing through _setTabRailWidth() the way the resize drag does: at the 320
default the row reads "CREATED 2m ago · IDLE <1m" with the created element
displayed; at 256 the tight class is on, the created element computes to
display:none, the visible text drops to "IDLE <1m", and the meta line's title
still reads "First created: ...". At 220 the compact threshold drops rich rows
entirely. Screenshots confirm no truncation artifacts in either state.
Full gate green (6104 passed), typecheck, lint, format, frontend-syntax and
public-assets all clean.
The vertical tab rail (tabOrientation 'vertical') listed names and nothing
else, while the rich sidebar and both home screens already answered the
question a docked column exists to answer: which of these sessions wants me
next, and how long has it been like that. The rail is a docked column too, so
it now draws the same row.
- New per-device setting tabRailDetail ('rich' | 'simple', default rich),
App Settings -> Appearance -> Tabs, in SettingsUpdateSchema + displayKeys and
stamped as data-tab-rail-detail by the pre-paint script, so a detailed rail
does not flash through simple rows on every load.
- ONE gate for both vertical surfaces: isRichTabRows() =
isSessionSidebarRich() || isTabRailRich(). The row model, the markup and the
20s in-place clock are the existing rich-sidebar ones, classified by
_mobileOverviewState/_mobileOverviewSince, so the rail, the sidebar, the
desktop home rail and the phone overview cannot disagree about what
"working" means or which stamp measures it.
- Detail rides on its OWN attribute, exactly as the sidebar's does, so every
existing [data-tab-orientation='vertical'] rule keeps matching both variants
untouched. A flip of detail ALONE still forces a full render (the stamps line
is emitted by the row template, not toggled by CSS) and re-runs
applyTabWrapSettings(), which owns the folder line and is now rail-aware.
- CSS: every rich paint rule gains a rail twin as a COMMA-GROUPED selector,
never :is() - an :is() list takes its most specific argument, which would
lift the sidebar arm from (0,3,1) to the rail's (0,5,1) and let these rules
outrank things they never used to.
- Width is why there are thresholds. At 256px the stamps line ellipsizes
mid-word, the same reason the rich sidebar is 300px, so a rail that has never
been sized defaults to 320 (RICH_DEFAULT_WIDTH, the existing Wide preset,
which also keeps the settings select on a named choice). A width the user has
chosen is never overridden: below 288px the created stamp is dropped rather
than truncated (tab-rail-tight, CSS only) and below 240px the rows go back to
simple (tab-rail-compact, which re-renders).
- The rich clock is armed and disarmed by applyTabOrientation() as well as
applySessionListLayout(); a leaked interval would rewrite stamps in a list
that no longer has any.
Also fixes a data-loss bug in the inline tab rename that predates the rail and
reproduces in every layout, header strip included: Escape set the input to ''
and blurred it, and the blur handler commits - so cancelling a rename PUT an
empty name, and the tab fell back to its folder label (measured against a live
server: ["rail-alpha","","rail-gamma"]). Escape now calls cancelRename(), which
invalidates the edit so the blur that follows the input's removal is a no-op.
Tests: rail-detail gate, the three ways it turns back off (simple, compact,
horizontal), sidebar-wins, render-on-detail-flip and the plumbing/CSS guards in
test/session-list-layout.test.ts; the rename cancel in test/inline-rename.test.ts
(browser suite), pinned by running it against the old code first. Verified live
against a real server on an isolated instance: detailed/simple/compact/header/
sidebar variants, click-select, the ... menu, inline rename, Alt+N, the in-place
stamp tick and a full settings-picker round-trip including reload.

Adds `mode: 'deepseek'` alongside claude/shell/opencode/codex/gemini/
antigravity/pi/grok, plus a shortcut that opens the harness's own browser UI
as a Codeman web tab.
DeepSeek is wired unlike its siblings in three ways, each of which is the
reason for a design decision rather than an accident:
1. The agent is a PROFILE, not the binary. `dsh` is a launcher over
$DSH_HOME/profiles/<name>, and DeepSeek ships only `web`, `headless` and
`base` -- the interactive terminal front door is always a third-party
plugin. So availability is two questions: `isDeepSeekAvailable()` (binary)
and `isDeepSeekRunnable()` (binary AND a pane-capable profile). The Run
button gates on the latter, because reporting only the binary would spawn a
pane that dies on arrival. When the binary is present but no profile is,
the run menu offers to install one (POST /api/deepseek/install-profile).
2. The permission switch is an env var, not a flag. The harness has no
command-line permission option; its sandbox/approval rows read
DSH_PERMISSION_MODE (read-only / workspace-write / danger-full-access).
Exported via `tmux setenv`, never on the spawn line. Absent = the harness's
own workspace-write, which still asks, so the multi-user clamp is the
only-if-sent branch and clamps to workspace-write, never read-only.
3. It is the only non-claude mode that passes hooksAvailableForMode(), and it
earned that. The terminal front door reports idle/working/blocked to a
supervising process over a generic env-gated contract; a generated shim
(deepseek-status-shim.ts) makes Codeman that supervisor and forwards each
report to /api/hook-event as stop / agent_working / permission_prompt. So a
dsh session gets definitive respawn triggers, real wait-endpoint signals and
real Approvals Inbox items instead of output-stabilization guesswork.
`agent_working` is new (157th SSE constant) and joins
APPROVAL_RESOLVING_EVENTS so a dialog answered in the terminal clears its
alert at once.
The resolver needs the strictest identity probe of the family: `dsh` is not
merely a squattable npm name, Debian ships an unrelated `dsh` (dancer's shell),
so `dsh --help` must print the harness's own banner before a candidate is
handed a spawn line.
Model is deliberately not a session field -- it is a composition entry in the
profile's config tree. Env allowlist gains DSH_* and DEEPSEEK_* only; provider
keys named by a settings-file `apiKeyEnv` stay out, which is pi's
34-provider-key problem in a new shape.
Verified live against dsh 0.1.1-rc.2 and @deepseek-harness-tui/dsh-tui: the
status endpoint's two-part answer, the no-profile refusal, the profile
bootstrap, a real session whose pane runs `dsh --profile dsh-tui` with the
permission mode injected via setenv, and the full status bridge -- a
send-and-wait returned signal "stop" from a real turn, and blocked/working
created and cleared an Approvals Inbox item.

Post-merge follow-ups from the deep review of #334 and #335, so they ship in
the same release as the features.
Tab-layout foundation (#335):
- PUT /api/session-order drops unknown/foreign ids again instead of 400ing
the whole write, in both the owner and the admin path (single-user requests
are the synthetic admin, so that path is the one the browser hits). The
frontend debounces its reorder push and swallows errors, so a session
deleted inside the debounce window silently cost the user the entire
reorder - and the endpoint sits on the stable /api/v1 surface, where the
pre-layout server merged leniently.
- A failed mux restore no longer locks explicit deletions into 500s for the
process lifetime: runSessionDeletion and webviewDeleted degrade to
best-effort without layout coordination, while the automated stale sweep
(runStaleSessionCleanup) stays fail-closed.
- sse-events doc comment: no 'suppressed' hook event exists; hooks stay 8.
- registerSessionWithLayout resolves its owner through ownerLayoutKey()
instead of a hardcoded '@single'.
Vertical rail (#334) - all rail-awareness gaps in sidebar-only predicates,
unified behind the new _isVerticalTabList() (sidebar OR rail):
- Drag-reorder read the insertion side from clientX in the rail, so
before/after was effectively arbitrary on vertical rows; the drag-over
indicators now draw as top/bottom edges there like the sidebar's.
- The active tab is scrolled into view in the rail (Alt+N/palette selection
used to leave the row below the fold).
- Floating subagent/ultracode windows anchor to the RIGHT of rail tabs, and
the connector redraw gates (render tail + strip scroll) cover the rail.
- Server-seeded tabOrientation is applied when the async settings load
resolves, not only at boot, so a fresh device shows the rail immediately.
- The pre-paint script stamps data-tab-orientation and --tab-rail-width
(sidebar-wins and solo carve-outs included), removing the flash of the
header strip on every vertical-mode load.
- The session name font defaults to 12px, the sidebar's historical 0.75rem
size, so installs that never touch the new slider are not restyled.
Also documents the rail in CLAUDE.md (second #sessionTabs host, mover
ordering, the axis-predicate rule) and gives tab-rail-resize.js its
@dependency/@loadorder header. Full gate green (6093 tests); the excluded
browser suite was run by hand - only the known environmental failures
(opencode/codex binaries) remain, identical to pristine master.

The button next to the file preview's close icon was Copy Content, whose
overlapping-pages glyph reads as a pop-out control - and for a PDF or any
media/binary preview it was completely dead: those branches never fill
filePreviewContent, so the click hit an empty-content guard and did nothing,
with no feedback.
There is now a real detach button that opens the previewed file in a browser
tab (raw route for PDFs/images/media/text, the server-converted PDF preview
for docx/pptx), severs window.opener by hand so a blocked pop-up stays
detectable, closes the overlay on success (which also stops any playing
media), and disarms on close so it can never open a stale file. The copy
button now toasts 'Nothing to copy in this preview' instead of staying
silent.
Verified live with Playwright against an isolated instance: button visible
and armed on a PDF preview, file-raw answers 200, clicking opens the URL and
tears the overlay down, text previews keep a working copy buffer.

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.

Confirming an AskUserQuestion left its tab flowing red for the rest of
the turn (owner report: ~8 minutes on a running session, with no dialog
anywhere on screen). Two separate bugs, both live-verified.
The re-capture erased the evidence the staleness check runs on. Claude
Code fires the Notification behind the dialog (measured 6-7s on v2.1.237,
documented up to ~30s), so the 600ms re-capture routinely lands on a
frame the user has ALREADY answered, parses nothing, and applyCapture
overwrote item.options with undefined. A MISSING options is how "we never
could read this dialog" is expressed, and those items stay answerable by
design, so a cleared field was indistinguishable from a never-parsed one
and the item became permanently unsweepable: it survived every
GET /api/approvals and every page reload, cleared only on `stop`, and
still accepted an answer, sending a bare `1` into a composer with no
dialog under it. applyCapture is now ADD-ONLY for options.
Nothing ran the staleness check while a page was open. It lived only in
GET /api/approvals, which seedApprovals() calls on init and reconnect, so
`stop` was the first thing that ever cleared an answered dialog. The
`working` signal now runs the pane-VERIFIED variant (resolveIfDialogGone
-> verifyStillAnswerable): the heuristic only decides when to look, the
screen decides the outcome, so the existing "working can flap" rule is
respected.
A frame that parses no options is now conclusive in two cases, and only
those, so an unreadable capture still keeps the alert: the item once
parsed options, or the frame shows Claude actively running a turn. A
modal dialog BLOCKS the turn, so the two cannot coexist - measured, a
live-dialog frame carries neither the elapsed-timer spinner nor the
"esc to interrupt" footer, which the dialog replaces with "Enter to
select". That second signal is reached by a delayed staleness pass (3s)
scheduled alongside the re-capture, which closes the late-hook case where
the prompt is answered before the hook lands: nothing ever parses, `stop`
may have gone by already, and the alert outlived reloads until the 12h
TTL. The pass is deliberately later than RECAPTURE_DELAY_MS, whose whole
reason for existing is that the hook can beat Ink to the screen.
Frontend: _onHookElicitationComplete cleared only the elicitation entry,
but an AskUserQuestion arrives as permission_prompt, so it was clearing
the wrong alert; it now clears both, matching the server's kind-agnostic
APPROVAL_RESOLVING_EVENTS.
Verified end to end on an isolated beta instance, not just in unit tests:
before, resolution could only come from the stop route (approval:resolved
always immediately preceding hook:stop); after, it arrives from the new
paths, and a simulated late hook resolves at +3.12s with no stop, no
working signal and no GET, while the pane is still working. Tests use
frames captured off a live pane and each new one was confirmed to fail
against the old behaviour.

Found while verifying Auto Copy in a browser: a plain left click in a
claude/codex/gemini pane sent a synthetic SGR mouse report into the PTY
whether or not the program in that pane had ever enabled mouse tracking.
When the pane holds a plain shell (the CLI exited, or a shell was started
inside a session of that mode) readline prints the report as literal text
and it garbles the next line typed:
$ [<0;88;20Mecho hello
bash: 0: No such file or directory
The cause is that the browser could not know. The full strip
(isAltScreenStripMode) removes the mouse DECSETs from the stream, so
xterm's modes.mouseTrackingMode is permanently 'none' for those modes and
_sendSyntheticSgrTap() hand-encodes reports to stand in for xterm's own
encoder. With no state to consult it had to do that on every click.
What the strip removes, the server now remembers.
_recordStrippedMouseMode() records each sequence as it is stripped,
toState() publishes it as cliMouseTracking, and the browser's
_shouldReportMouseToCli() (renamed from _sessionUsesServerMouseStrip)
requires it at all three report sites: the desktop click, the touchend
tap, and the mobile tap classifier.
Details that are easy to get wrong:
* Only the tracking modes count (1000/1001/1002/1003). 1005/1006 select
an encoding and 1007 is alt-scroll; a CLI that picks SGR encoding
without turning tracking on is not asking about clicks, and counting
those would put the stray reports straight back.
* Modes are held in a Set, so a TUI disabling a mode it never enabled
cannot clear the ones that are really on.
* The change broadcasts immediately instead of through
broadcastSessionStateDebounced: the flag flips when a dialog opens, and
the user can click that dialog well inside the 500ms debounce window.
* It fails toward silence. After a server restart the flag is false until
the CLI re-emits its DECSET, which tmux does at client attach.
Verified against a live claude 2.x session: the CLI holds a tracking mode
on continuously, so its clicks are still reported byte for byte as
before, while a bash prompt in the same stripped mode now reports
nothing and types cleanly. The flag also propagates live over SSE in both
directions, checked by toggling ?1002h/?1002l from inside the pane.

App Settings > Terminal & Input > Selection & clipboard > Auto Copy
Selection (`autoCopySelection`, per-device, default OFF). With it on,
highlighting text in the terminal copies it: mouse drag, double-click
word, triple-click line, and the phone long-press selection. Ctrl+C is
untouched and still copies on demand.
Three things decide the shape of it:
* It fires at the END of a gesture, never in onSelectionChange. That
callback runs for every cell a drag crosses, so copying there would be
one clipboard write per mouse move. It only arms a pending flag; a
document-level mouseup listener flushes, and the touch path calls the
flush itself because it preventDefaults its touchend and no mouseup
ever arrives there.
* The flush is synchronous inside the handler, because both clipboard
paths need user activation: Firefox gates navigator.clipboard
.writeText on it, and execCommand('copy'), the fallback the plain-HTTP
LAN install lands on, has to run in the gesture's own task. A timer or
a wait for onSelectionChange loses it, invisibly in Chrome.
* It deliberately does NOT do what copyTerminalSelection() does. That
one clears the selection (so a second Ctrl+C is an interrupt) and
focuses the terminal. Clearing would make text vanish under the cursor
that just highlighted it, and focusing opens the on-screen keyboard
over it on a phone. Focus is instead restored to whatever held it,
which only matters for the execCommand fallback.
Guards are pure in decideAutoCopy() (constants.js): off, blank or
whitespace-only text, and a 1M-char cap, since a drag off the top of the
viewport autoscrolls and one gesture can sweep the whole 50k-line
scrollback. Past the cap the copy is refused rather than truncated, with
a toast pointing at Ctrl+C.
Feedback is silent on success except once per page load, so a feature
that works by doing nothing visible can still be told from a dead
toggle; failures and refusals toast, throttled to 10s.
Per-device on both counts the settings rule requires: in `displayKeys`
and absent from the .strict() SettingsUpdateSchema, because clipboard
access differs by device and by origin.

The last two items of #322: copyTerminal() copied the entire buffer but
was wired to no button, shortcut or call site anywhere, and it wrote
through navigator.clipboard directly, which is undefined on the
plain-HTTP LAN install, so it would have failed there even if it were
reachable. Everything that actually copies goes through
copyTerminalSelection() and _copyText's execCommand fallback; whole-
buffer copy, should anyone want it, is a selectAll() away from that
same working path.
Closes#322

An agent's numbered list wraps its URL, and the link opened a PREFIX of it:
1. https://github.com/users/someone/packages/container/p
ackage/thing
opened `…/container/p`. The provider already stitched hard wraps — Ink emits a real
newline, so nothing is flagged `isWrapped` and a row that fills the last column is
taken as continuing — but it joined the row texts VERBATIM, and the continuation
carries the list's own three-space indent. That whitespace lands in the middle of
the token, which is exactly where the URL pattern stops. Flush-left wrapped URLs
(Claude Code's own `/login`) worked, which is why this survived.
The touch-selection helpers had the shallower version of the same bug: they walked
`isWrapped` only, so `Line` grabbed the single row on screen rather than the
logical line, and a long-press on a wrapped token selected only its visible half.
So the reconstruction now lives in ONE place, `terminalLogicalLine` in
constants.js, and both consumers use it — the link provider matching patterns over
its text and the selection helpers measuring words and lines with it. A link that
spans a wrap and a `Line` that stops at the screen edge were the same bug twice.
The helper drops the leading whitespace of a HARD continuation (the program's
indent) and keeps that of a SOFT one (the emulator inserts nothing, so it is real
content), records the dropped width per segment so the offset↔cell mapping stays
exact in both directions, trims only the final row so earlier offsets stay aligned
to cells, and keeps the 12-row bound that stops a screenful of full-width output
from being re-scanned on every hover.
⚠️ Selection spans are computed in CELLS, not text offsets: an xterm selection is
one contiguous run, so a token spanning a hard wrap also covers the indent cells
between its halves. A run that skipped them cannot be expressed, and would not
match what is highlighted.
Tests: `test/terminal-logical-line.test.ts` (8 cases: the indent drop, resolving
from either row, both mapping directions, soft continuations kept verbatim, no
over-reach past a short row, the row bound, final-row trimming, a missing row) and
5 in `terminal-touch-tap.test.ts` (the whole URL from either row, a token selected
across the wrap, `Line` spanning both rows, no reach into the next line). Removing
either half of the fix reds 5 and 8 of them respectively.

The three fixes in this branch change what a tap and a long-press MEAN on a
phone, and add a UI surface with its own z-index — all of which this repo keeps
written down rather than discoverable only by reading the handlers.
- `docs/wiki/Mobile-Guide.md` (the published user manual): a new "Tapping, links
and copying" section, and the long-prompt behaviour in the keyboard section
where the existing scroll/tap rules live.
- `CLAUDE.md`: the touch-gesture invariants next to the scrollback/wheel material
(why the caret line is the boundary rather than the tap intent; why all three
selection guards exist), the overlay's new bottom bound alongside the
single-source note, and the selection bar in the z-index registry — 900, above
terminal content and the local-echo overlay and deliberately below floating
agent windows so it can never cover their controls.
- `i18n.js`: zh-CN for the bar's `Copy` / `Line` / `Clear selection`. The bar is a
SIBLING of `.xterm`, not a descendant, so `SKIP_SELECTOR` does not cover it and
the entries actually apply.

Typing a prompt long enough to wrap ran the text off the bottom of the screen: the
tail — the part being typed, where the cursor is — sat behind the on-screen
keyboard, so the user was typing blind. Two independent causes.
**The overlay had no bottom bound.** On touch devices keystrokes are buffered in
the local-echo overlay and do not reach the PTY until Enter, so the CLI never
learns the prompt is long and nothing scrolls or reflows to make room. Meanwhile
the renderer lays its wrapped lines out straight DOWNWARD from the prompt row
(`top = promptRow * cellH`, each line at `i * cellH`) with nothing clamping it to
the visible rows — and with the keyboard up there are only a handful of those.
The block now grows UPWARD once it would pass the last visible row: it is lifted
so its final line lands ON that row. Every line div is opaque, so it covers
transcript above rather than vanishing under the keyboard below — the same thing a
real terminal does when a composer expands. A prompt taller than the whole
viewport keeps its TAIL, for the same reason the fix exists: the end is what the
user is looking at. `startCol` indents only the line that starts at the prompt
marker, so it is dropped along with that line when only the tail fits, and the
cursor follows the last VISIBLE line.
`rows` joins the render key: the layout depends on it, so a keyboard opening —
which changes rows without changing the text — must not be skipped as a redundant
render.
**`_shrinkPaddingToFit()` was reclaiming the bars' own space.** On phones the
toolbar and accessory bar are `position: fixed`, so they occupy no layout space
and `main`'s padding-bottom is the ONLY thing reserving room for them. Shrinking
it by the full sub-row slack pulled the terminal's bottom edge down underneath
them, and the row the following re-fit gained was painted behind them — clipping
the last line of a long prompt. The shrink now has a floor: the MEASURED height of
the currently-visible fixed bars, so genuine over-reservation of the hard-coded
84px is still reclaimed while a device that needs those pixels keeps them. The
floor is `Math.min(currentPadding, measured)`, so it can only ever prevent a
shrink, never cause a grow that would resize the terminal as a side effect.
Overlay behaviour lives in `packages/xterm-zerolag-input/` (single-source; the
vendor bundles are generated), so the fix is in the package with the row count
passed in as an optional `totalRows` — absent, the layout is exactly as before.
Tests: 7 cases in the package's `overlay-renderer.test.ts` (upward lift, tail
retention, indent drop, cursor on the last visible line, and the unclamped
fallbacks) and 7 in a new `test/mobile-keyboard-bottom-padding.test.ts` (reclaim,
floor, partial reclaim, no-grow, hidden bars, CJK strip, whole-row slack). 5 and 4
of them respectively fail without the fix. Package suite 238 pass, including the
codex byte-identity and replay tests.
Verified on Android + Chrome against a live instance: a ~460-character prompt
wrapping ~12 rows stays on screen while typing and arrives at the PTY intact.

There was no way to copy terminal text from a phone at all, and three layers
ruled it out independently: `user-select: none` across the whole terminal subtree
on touch devices (taps are cursor gestures there, so the OS callout had to go),
the WebGL renderer drawing glyphs as pixels with only the accessibility tree
behind them, and xterm's own selection being a mouse DRAG while the touch path
dispatches a zero-movement mousedown/mouseup pair — a click. `copyTerminal()`
exists but is wired to no button and calls `navigator.clipboard` directly, which
is undefined on the plain-HTTP LAN install the installer offers.
So the gesture drives xterm's `select()` directly: public API, renderer-
independent, and the highlight is drawn by xterm itself. Long-press is free real
estate — tap and swipe are taken, long-press and double-tap are used by nothing.
- **Long-press** (350ms, finger still within the shared tap slop) selects the
run of non-whitespace under the finger. Whitespace is the only delimiter on
purpose: every punctuation-aware word rule cuts a path, URL or hash in half,
which is what you came to copy.
- **Drag** while held extends the selection; touchmove diverts from scrolling.
- **Tap** while the bar is up extends it too. That is the ergonomic core:
picking up a 4px handle with a fingertip is a coin flip, tapping the other end
is not. Dismissal stays explicit (✕ or Copy), so no tap is spent leaving a mode
the user is still using.
- **Copy** goes through the existing `copyTerminalSelection()`, so it inherits
the execCommand fallback that is the only route that works on plain HTTP.
- **Line** takes the whole logical line, wraps included, trailing pad trimmed.
Three guards are what make the gesture survive contact with a real phone, and
each fixes a symptom measured on Android Chrome:
1. **The compat mouse pair after touchend.** xterm focuses from its screen-element
mousedown and SelectionService resets the model there, so lifting your finger
popped the keyboard and dissolved the selection in one go. The tap path already
had a guard for those events; the selection path simply never armed it. Armed
now, and the touchend is `preventDefault`ed so the synthesis is stopped at the
source (that listener is no longer passive).
2. **The platform's own long-press.** Android Chrome runs its handling at ~500ms
and focuses the nearest editable element — xterm's helper textarea, parked at
the cursor — which no touch handler can preventDefault because it never sees an
event. A focus guard blurs the terminal input for the duration of the gesture,
whatever focused it, bounded by a self-expiring deadline so a stuck flag can
never leave the keyboard unreachable. `contextmenu` is suppressed for the same
window, and the threshold sits at 350ms so it lands clear of the platform's.
3. **Copy re-focusing the terminal.** `copyTerminalSelection()` ends with
`terminal.focus()`, which is right on a desktop and wrong on a phone: the
keyboard covers what was just copied with nothing waiting to be typed.
The bar is built in JS because index.html is read once at server start, and its
styles live in styles.css rather than mobile.css because the gesture is
touch-driven, not width-driven — a touch tablet in landscape gets the gesture and
would otherwise have no bar to copy from.
12 tests in `terminal-touch-tap.test.ts` cover the word rule, forward and
backward extension, cross-row selection, Line, tap-to-extend, the copy path, and
each of the three guards including the focus guard's expiry.

On a phone no link was openable, on either surface, for two unrelated reasons.
**Terminal.** xterm resolves the link under the pointer on `mousemove` and
activates it on `mouseup` over its SCREEN element. A touch tap delivers neither:
`touch-action: none` on the terminal subtree plus touchstart's preventDefault for
a 'content' tap suppress the browser's compatibility mouse events,
`_installMobileTapMouseGuard` drops the trusted ones that still arrive inside the
450ms tap window, and the synthetic mousedown/mouseup pair dispatched for mouse
REPORTING goes to the `.xterm` root — an ancestor of the node the linkifier
listens on, so it cannot reach it — and carries no mousemove either way. Every
URL and file path in the terminal was therefore inert on phones and tablets,
Claude Code's own `/login` URL included.
The tap path now activates the link itself, through the SAME provider that feeds
the hover linkifier (`_terminalLinkAtPoint`), so a tap and a desktop click can
never disagree about what is a link or where it ends — containment mirrors
xterm's own `_linkAtPosition`. It runs synchronously inside the touchend handler,
which is what keeps the user gesture that lets `window.open` past the popup
blocker, and before any mouse report, exactly as `_handleDesktopTerminalClick`
already skips the SGR tap for a hovered link.
Two kinds of row keep their existing meaning: the caret's logical line, where a
tap places the cursor and a URL the user typed must stay editable, and TUI-owned
rows, where a numbered choice or an expandable readback is answering a dialog and
routinely carries the very path the tap would otherwise open. The caret line is
the boundary rather than the tap intent, because a plain shell classifies EVERY
tap as 'input' and gating on that would leave every URL in shell output inert.
**Chat.** `marked` emits a bare `<a href>` and the markdown sanitizer's allowlist
carries no `target`, so a tap in the response viewer navigated the current tab
away: on a phone that unloads the whole dashboard — SSE, terminal buffers, unsent
composer text — and there is no middle-click or open-in-new-tab affordance to
work around it. `_renderMarkdown` now decorates anchors in the template pass it
already makes for code blocks. That pass runs AFTER sanitizing, so it is the only
source of both attributes: an agent-authored `target`/`rel` is already stripped,
and `rel="noopener noreferrer"` is set on the same element in the same breath, so
no page Codeman opens gets a `window.opener` handle back. Fragment links stay
in-page; mailto:/tel: are left to the OS rather than stranding an empty tab.
Tests: 10 cases in `terminal-touch-tap.test.ts` (URL, file path, log path,
scrollback, no-double-report, composer, shell mode, dialog row, no provider) and
a new `response-viewer-external-links.test.ts` driving the shipped marked +
DOMPurify + app.js. 7 of them fail without the fix.

Shell prompts using Nerd Font glyphs (powerline, p10k/starship folder and
git icons) rendered as missing-glyph boxes: the built-in xterm stack has no
private-use-area symbols, and phones have no Nerd Fonts installed at all.
- Bundle Symbols Nerd Font Mono (icons-only, MIT, 1.2MB woff2) served from
fonts/ and appended to the terminal stack before monospace — browsers fall
back per glyph, so icons render everywhere while text stays in the text
fonts. font-display: block + preload keep tofu out of xterm's glyph atlas.
- New per-device terminalFontFamily setting (App Settings > Terminal &
Input > Font): prepended to the built-in stack, never a replacement, so
the symbols fallback and final monospace always survive. Applied live on
save (refit + echo-overlay refreshFont, mirroring setFontSize).
- Single source for both xterm surfaces: TERMINAL_FONT_DEFAULT_STACK +
resolveTerminalFontFamily() in constants.js, unit-tested.
