Round 2 of the #251 review: settingsWriteBlocker covered only
writeHooksConfig and updateCaseModel, while applyStatusLineConfig,
stripCaseEnvKeys, updateCaseEnvVars, refreshStaleCodemanHooks and
ensureCodemanHooks still wrote the same repository-controlled path
unguarded (applyStatusLineConfig was demonstrated writing through a
symlinked settings.local.json).
All seven writers now go through withSafeSettingsWrite(), which runs
the blocker check INSIDE the per-path settings lock and then hands the
writer its claudeDir/settingsPath; none of them touch the settings path
directly anymore. Test pins all seven against a symlinked
settings.local.json at once (link target must stay byte-identical).

Addresses all four findings from the #251 review:
- Scaffolding no longer writes through repository-controlled symlinks.
The guard lives in hooks-config.ts (settingsWriteBlocker) so it also
covers quick-start/docker/ralph writers, not just the clone route:
refuses a symlinked .claude or settings.local.json, a .claude that is
a file, or one resolving outside the case. The clone route surfaces
the refusal as a user-visible warning, and the CLAUDE.md write checks
presence via lstat so a BROKEN repo-shipped symlink counts as present
(existsSync follows links and would have created the outside target).
- Failed-clone cleanup can no longer delete a concurrent winner's tree:
git clones into an attempt-owned temp sibling (.<name>.cloning-<rand>)
which is atomically renamed into place; the loser reports
DESTINATION_EXISTS and only ever removes its own temp dir.
- decodeURIComponent(url.pathname) is guarded: malformed percent-escapes
now come back as BAD_SYNTAX instead of an uncaught URIError 500.
- The git pool's waiter queue is bounded (CODEMAN_MAX_GIT_QUEUE, default
16): overflow answers BUSY immediately (HTTP 429 via RATE_LIMITED),
and queue time counts against the operation's own deadline.
Tests: hostile symlink fixture repo (route level), settingsWriteBlocker
units, concurrent same-destination race, temp-dir leak assertions,
percent-escape rejection, and a fake-git pool-bounds suite.

Two ways the injection could go wrong quietly.
`installAgentSkillInto()` wrote each file with a bare `writeFile`, no lock and no
temp+rename, while every sibling mutator in hooks-config.ts goes through
`withSettingsLock`. Two Claude sessions created concurrently in one repo both wrote the
same ~16KB SKILL.md, and any reader loading it mid-write could observe a truncated
file. Writes now go through a temp+rename helper under the same lock the neighbours
use, so a reader sees either the old file or the new one.
Both server call sites discarded the outcome with `.catch(() => {})`, so the two
refusal results were invisible: `foreign` (a user-authored skills/codeman is present,
so we declined to touch it) and `symlink` (the skill dir or its parent is a symlink, so
we declined to write through it). Turning `agentSkillEnabled` on, seeing nothing appear
and having no way to find out why was the reportable-as-a-bug outcome. Refusals are now
logged with the path and what to do about it. The boring outcomes stay silent, since
they happen on every session create. Injection remains best-effort: a refusal or a
thrown error still cannot fail session creation.

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.

Conflict in refreshStaleCodemanHooks resolved by keeping every staleness
trigger: the master-side TLS-flagless curl check (hooks without -k) AND the
PR-side current-wake-marker (V3) + SubagentStop guard marker checks.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two defects in the background-task hook scripts.
SubagentStop had no handler at all. When a subagent launched background work and
one watcher ended while others were still running, Claude could publish the
worker's last progress sentence as its final result, abandoning the live tasks.
A new guard pairs launched task IDs against completed ones and confirms liveness
by scanning /proc/<pid>/fd for an open tasks/<id>.output handle, blocking the
stop only while genuinely-live work remains. It fails open — allowing the stop —
when /proc is unavailable, nothing was launched, or everything finished.
The rewake helper watched only input.transcript_path. A subagent has its own
transcript, but Claude writes the completion queue-operation to the PARENT
transcript, so the record it waited for never appeared and the wake never fired.
It now watches both paths, but only when the relationship is provable: the
transcript's parent directory is subagents/ and its grandparent basename equals
input.session_id. It also now requires operation === 'enqueue'.
The rewake marker moves V2 -> V3; refreshStaleCodemanHooks treats absence of the
current marker as stale, so existing cases self-heal on next launch (the same
mechanism as the V1 -> V2 bump). Ownership matches on marker PREFIXES, so a
future bump still recognises older Codeman handlers and never adopts a user's.
12 tests fail on unmodified master, e.g.
expected '[{"matcher":"Bash",…' to contain 'CODEMAN_BACKGROUND_REWAKE_V3'
expected 'Background command bg-report-1 comple…' to contain '<codeman-background-result>'
Follow-ups from the PR #175/#176 reviews:
- Rewake helper self-terminates on its own 6h deadline and when orphaned,
instead of relying on Claude Code to reap the poller
- Rewake marker versioned (V2) with a version-agnostic ownership prefix, so
future script updates replace older handlers instead of duplicating them;
regression test covers the V1 to V2 swap
- HOOK_TIMEOUT_MS renamed to HOOK_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 10: the hook timeout
field is seconds (the CLI multiplies by 1000), so the curl hooks have
effectively had a ~2.8h timeout since COD-54
- Test echo PTY switches to raw mode: each input byte echoes exactly once
(tty line discipline doubled every line and buffered until Enter)
- test/setup.ts: drain in-flight console-log rpc forwards before environment
teardown (fixes the EnvironmentTeardownError that failed CI twice on the
merge commit with all 3820 tests passing), clean the temp home on process
exit (fully-skipped files leaked it), fix the Windows Playwright cache
fallback path
- test/webview-proxy.test.ts: stop naming the vitest environment directive in
prose; vitest matches it inside comments and silently ran the whole file
under the jsdom environment while the comment claimed node
- CLAUDE.md: document the temp-HOME and echo-PTY test isolation

Making the hook-event secret unconditionally required closes the own-loopback-proxy gap,
but it would also silently 401 the hook curls baked into cases created BEFORE the secret
header existed (COD-54, 2026-06-10): writeHooksConfig only runs at case CREATION, so an
existing/linked case on a password-protected install keeps secret-less curls that the new
gate rejects (degrading idle/stop/teammate/task signalling with no error surfaced).
No-password installs are unaffected — the gate isn't registered without CODEMAN_PASSWORD.
Add `refreshStaleHookSecret(casePath)` and call it on Claude-mode spawns in
POST /api/sessions and POST /api/quick-start (existing-case branch). It regenerates the
hooks block ONLY when settings.local.json already holds Codeman's own hook curls (they
target /api/hook-event) that lack the X-Codeman-Hook-Secret header — a no-op when the
hooks are absent, not ours, or already current, so it never clobbers user customizations
and is cheap on every spawn. Fresh cases are unaffected (writeHooksConfig already wrote
the secret). withSettingsLock serializes it with the model/statusLine writers.
Verified: new test/hook-secret-selfheal.test.ts 5/5 (heal + key-preservation + no-op on
current/foreign/absent/malformed); the PR's cod54 + auth-security suites still pass
(36); tsc, lint, format:check, and npm run build all clean (symbol present in dist).

Review of the plan-usage chip feature (commits since 1.0.0) surfaced several
issues; this fixes all confirmed findings:
- HIGH: applyStatusLineConfig clobbered a user's hand-authored statusLine on
the enable path (the isOurs guard only protected disable). Now bails out when
an existing statusLine isn't ours, on both the enable and disable paths.
- MED: StatusTelemetrySchema used z.optional() (rejects null) on Claude's
undocumented statusline fields — a single stray null 400'd the entire POST and
silently killed the chip's data feed. Switched the modeled fields to .nullish().
- MED: dropping the Token Count / Show Cost header toggles left their features
reading settings.showTokenCount/showCost, but saveAppSettings rebuilds settings
fresh from the DOM, dropping those keys and resetting them to defaults on every
save (re-enabling the token chip with no UI to turn it off). Preserve the prior
stored preference.
- telemetrySignature keyed on contextUsedPercentage (never displayed) and the raw
unrounded %, churning a redundant SSE broadcast + localStorage write + identical
chip re-render on every assistant message. Now keys on the rounded displayed
window values only.
- Plan-usage chip flashed hidden on load (no server-side reveal): renderIndexHtml
now strips header-plan-usage--hidden when enabled, matching btn-multimonitor;
fixes the FOUC and makes the "server renders initial state" comments accurate.
- Serialize all settings.local.json read-modify-write writers in hooks-config via
a shared per-path mutex (previously lock-free; concurrent session-create +
settings-toggle on the same repo could lose writes).
- Hardened the chip's innerHTML against any future string field; removed the dead
_latestPlanUsage field; clamped ctx% in the footer formatter; corrected the
session-create comment (the path is add-only by design — a per-repo settings
file is shared by sibling sessions).
- Tests: new test/routes/status-telemetry-routes.test.ts (route behavior, dedup,
null-tolerance) + NaN/Infinity/fractional and signature-churn unit tests; made
server-index-title.test.ts deterministic against the ambient settings.json.

End-to-end testing on the real install surfaced several issues the unit
tests missed:
- Injection gate excluded real sessions: gated on workingDir under CASES_DIR,
but sessions run in linked cases / real repos. Drop the gate (match
updateCaseModel, which writes settings.local.json unconditionally).
- statusLine curl failed on HTTPS: prod is loopback HTTPS with a self-signed
cert; `curl -s` returns 000. Use `curl -sk` (loopback only). applyStatusLineConfig
now also updates an out-of-date ours-command so the fix propagates.
- Footer hijacked by limits: the in-terminal statusline now shows CURRENT
SESSION status — `Opus 4.8 (1M context) in:562,411 out:1,188 ctx:56%` —
while the account-wide plan limits live only in the header chip.
- Chip blank after reload: persist last-known to localStorage and restore on
load (account-global, slow-moving; 12h freshness guard).
- Readability + color: per-window green/yellow/red by usage (<60 / 60–84 / ≥85),
bolder labels and values.
- Drop the renderIndexHtml strip (client-side reveal only, response-viewer
pattern) — fixes server-index-title test fragility to local settings.
Footer fields flow through context_window.total_input_tokens/total_output_tokens
(schema + parser). Tests updated; verified live (footer, chip, colors, reload
persistence) on the real install.

Surface Claude subscription plan usage limits (5-hour rolling + 7-day
weekly: percent used + reset time) in the header, opt-in via App Settings
→ Display → "Plan Usage Limits" (default OFF, no behavior change when off).
A Codeman-managed Claude statusLine exporter forwards the rate_limits JSON
to a new auth-exempt POST /api/status-telemetry (same loopback + hook-secret
gate as /api/hook-event); parsed telemetry broadcasts over SSE
session:statusTelemetry to a header chip (amber >=80%, red >=95%, reset
times on hover). The exporter prints the same summary back as the
in-terminal footer (print-through).
- src/usage-telemetry.ts: pure parser/formatter (epoch-sec -> ms, clamp,
change signature) + test/usage-telemetry.test.ts
- hooks-config.ts: generateStatusLineCommand + applyStatusLineConfig
(add/remove; never clobbers a user's own statusLine)
- session-routes.ts: inject gate (Claude-only, Codeman-managed cases),
driven by create-payload statusLineTelemetry (session-ui.js)
- schemas.ts: StatusTelemetrySchema + showPlanUsageLimits + payload field
- frontend: header chip, applyHeaderVisibilitySettings toggle,
renderIndexHtml strip, _onSessionStatusTelemetry handler
Schema empirically confirmed against Claude Code 2.1.177 (Claude Max):
only five_hour/seven_day windows exist (no Opus-weekly field); rate_limits
is absent before the first API response and for non-subscriber auth. Design
+ verification method in docs/usage-limits-display-plan.md.

Review fixes for COD-54:
- Generated hook curl commands now present X-Codeman-Hook-Secret, read from
the secret file AT EXECUTION TIME via $CODEMAN_HOOK_SECRET_FILE (exported
into every managed session's env by tmux buildEnvExports / the direct-PTY
env builders). Without this, every local hook 401'd the moment a managed
tunnel came up — the enforcement existed but nothing presented the secret.
Path-not-value keeps the secret off command lines and out of config files,
and running sessions pick up a newly generated secret with no respawn;
server.start() ensures the file exists up front.
- Hook-secret failures now count into a DEDICATED per-IP bucket
(hookSecretFailures) instead of the shared authFailures map. Legacy
(pre-secret) hook configs fire constantly from 127.0.0.1; counting their
401s against the shared bucket would 429 every cookie-less loopback
request — locking out the Basic-Auth login path (and, through a tunnel,
every client, since tunneled traffic also arrives as 127.0.0.1).
- docs/security-architecture.md: secret-gated hook exemption, dedicated
bucket, COD-55 refusal, and the residual caveat for EXTERNAL loopback
proxies (user-run cloudflared / tailscale serve), which the
managed-tunnel probe cannot see.
- test/cod54-hook-event-auth.test.ts: +3 tests — login path unaffected
after hook-bucket exhaustion; generated hooks reference the header +
$CODEMAN_HOOK_SECRET_FILE without embedding the value; env builders
export the path only.

CLAUDE_CODE_EFFORT_LEVEL (and any CLAUDE_CODE_* / OPENCODE_* key) now flows:
UI dropdown → POST /api/sessions { envOverrides }
→ new Session({ envOverrides })
→ this._envOverrides
→ tmux-manager.buildEnvExports appends `export KEY=<shellescape(VALUE)>`
Previously the API wrote envOverrides to <case>/.claude/settings.local.json, which
created stale state (UI dropdown disagreeing with disk) and polluted user project
directories. Now envOverrides are ephemeral spawn-time state, preserved across
respawnPane cycles via this._envOverrides and across server restart via
SessionState.envOverrides in state.json.
Also removes the now-unused updateCaseEnvVars import from session-routes.ts.
* refactor: extract SSE event handlers into named class methods
Replace ~80 inline addListener closures in connectSSE() with a
declarative _SSE_HANDLER_MAP array that drives registration in a

Add SSE_EVENTS constant object in constants.js to eliminate magic
event-type strings scattered across the frontend.

The hook commands now read stdin JSON from Claude Code (contains tool_name,
tool_input, etc.) and forward it as the data field to the API. This enables
richer notifications showing actual context (e.g., "Bash: docker push prod").
Previously the curl commands only sent event type and session ID, losing
all hook context data.

The auto-accept feature was too aggressive - it would press Enter for any
silence without a completion message, including AskUserQuestion prompts.
Now uses the elicitation_dialog notification hook to detect when Claude is
asking a question, and blocks auto-accept in that case. Only plan mode
approvals (silence with no completion message AND no elicitation signal)
trigger auto-accept.
