Security (MAJOR): the terminal-output codeman://attach scanner registered any
matching path server-side with no user confirmation and broadcast the rawUrl
over SSE. Terminal output is attacker-influenceable (a prompt-injected session
can print an arbitrary path), so on the default no-auth deployment this was an
arbitrary host-file (png/pdf/docx/pptx/md/txt) read primitive reachable by any
SSE client. Magic-link registration is now force-confined to the session
workspace (forceWorkspaceConfinement) regardless of the global confine setting;
deliberate cross-workspace attach still works through the explicit,
Origin-guarded POST /attachments route and 'codeman attach' (which POSTs
directly inside a managed session). Documented in security-architecture.md.
Regression (MAJOR): .png was rerouted from the image-popup path to
attachment:detected, which has no frontend consumer — silently breaking the
dropped/pasted-screenshot popup. PNG stays on image:detected; only pdf/docx/pptx
(which never had a popup) emit attachment:detected.
Also:
- raw route streams the freshly-resolved path, not the stored one, so a
post-registration symlink swap can't redirect the stream (TOCTOU).
- 50MB cap on the attachment raw route, matching file-raw / download.
- per-session attachment registry cap (200) to bound the POST path.
- CLI reads creds via dataPath('.env'), honoring CODEMAN_INSTANCE.
Tests: forced-confinement reject/allow cases; PNG popup-path assertions updated.
Adds the foundation for serving local files to the browser as live external
attachments with a stable id, so requests never carry arbitrary absolute paths.
- attachment-registry: in-memory, session-scoped registry. registerExternalAttachment
validates an absolute path, resolves symlinks, enforces the path guard, and mints
an `att_<uuid>` id; records are cleared when the session is removed.
- attachment path guard: a configurable blocklist (secret locations + /root,/etc
trees, extendable via attachmentBlockedPaths / CODEMAN_ATTACHMENT_BLOCKED_PATHS)
plus an optional, default-off workspace-confinement mode. Shares one
sensitive-path blocklist (web/sensitive-path.ts) with /api/download, which is
refactored to use the extracted module instead of an inline copy.
- terminal magic links: the session scans output for codeman://attach?path=... and
emits `attachmentRequested`; the web server registers the file and broadcasts an
`attachment:detected` SSE event. `codeman attach <path>` (CLI) prints the magic
link or POSTs directly when a session id is known.
- image watcher: detects png/pdf/docx/pptx dropped into a session's working dir and
emits `attachment:detected`.
- routes: POST /api/sessions/:id/attachments (register) and
GET /api/sessions/:id/attachments/:attachmentId/raw (serve), both re-checking the
guard before streaming.
Document previews/thumbnails and the attachment-history drawer build on this
foundation and land separately.
Verified: tsc --noEmit, lint, format, frontend-syntax, full test:ci (2846 passed),
and a server boot smoke (/api/status 200).
Switching away from a session and back replayed only the server's byte
history. For TUI modes (codex especially) that shows just the latest
repaint — the idle banner — because the TUI drops earlier conversation
from its current frame. This restores the actual on-screen view.
Two complementary mechanisms:
- Client: load xterm's SerializeAddon and snapshot the rendered state
(viewport + scrollback + colors) per session on switch-away, restoring
it for an instant first paint on switch-back. The snapshot is only the
first paint — the canonical /terminal frame is still fetched and
reconciled (restoredSnapshot/clearedForBusy force the replay). Snapshots
are LRU-bounded in memory (<=20) and persisted to localStorage
(<=256KB each, <=10 sessions, stale-pruned) so they survive tab discard.
- Server: GET /api/sessions/:id/terminal prepends the live tmux pane
buffer (via the existing captureActivePaneBuffer) ahead of the byte
history, cleared between, so replay reflects the current frame.
Also fix formatPaneSnapshot dropping the rightmost column of every
captured row: it painted to cols - 1 out of caution about last-column
autowrap, but every row is followed by an absolute cursor-position CSI
that cancels xterm's pending-wrap, so painting the full width is safe.
The SerializeAddon is built from @xterm/addon-serialize (new dependency)
into the vendor bundle by postinstall.js (dev) and build.mjs (prod),
matching how the other xterm addons are vendored.
Auto-resume on usage limit ("token pause" control, opt-in checkbox at the
top of the Respawn tab, off by default):
- usage-limit-patterns.ts (new, pure): detects all Claude Code limit
messages (1.0.x-2.1.x eras incl. "5-hour limit reached - resets 8pm",
"You've hit your limit - resets 1:40pm (TZ)", weekly date forms, raw
"usage limit reached|<epoch>") and parses the reset time. Conservative:
no parseable future reset time, no action.
- SessionAutoOps: arms a timer at reset+2min, sends Esc (dismisses the
rate-limit dialog) + "continue"; dedups footer redraws, retries every
5min on stale times, cancels when Claude starts working, persists and
re-arms across Codeman restarts (SessionState.autoResumeEnabled/At).
- Respawn guard: cycles are blocked while limit-paused so /clear cannot
wipe the paused conversation (respawnBlocked reason 'usage_limit').
- POST /api/sessions/:id/auto-resume; SSE session:limitPauseScheduled/
limitResume/limitResumeCancelled; toasts + status line in the modal.
- Respawn tab tidied: single-row prompt fields, merged behavior row.
Mobile fixes (0.9.8 regressions, user-reported):
- Resize arbitration is now activity-based: a desktop sizing claim only
blocks phone resizes while the desktop typed within 90s
(Session.DESKTOP_CLAIM_IDLE_MS). Idle desktop -> phone takes the pane;
next desktop keystroke re-asserts the desktop layout server-side
(noteDesktopActivity via ws-routes input). Phones re-send dims every
30s (visible tab only, skipped while the keyboard is open) so attaching
under a hot claim self-corrects. Fixes the desktop-width-stream-in-
narrow-xterm soup (mid-word wraps, tmux dot fill, Ink overdraw).
- Cross-device reflows (takeover/re-assert) emit a debounced needsRefresh
so all clients reload the buffer instead of stacking ghost Ink frames.
- Keyboard accessory/toolbar lift restored: measure keyboardOffset
against window.innerHeight (layout viewport), not the shrunken .app -
on iOS the offset computed to 0, leaving both bars hidden behind the
OS keyboard with a dead gap above.
- Removed the mobile header utility ("three dots") toggle entirely;
the headerRight tray stays collapsed on small viewports.
Tests: usage-limit-patterns (36), session-auto-resume (21), resize
arbitration (+6), session routes (+4), respawn guard (+2); MockSession
auto-resume/sizing stubs; mobile tabs test updated for toggle removal.

Two hardening fixes for the public-tunnel exposure path (COD-54 / COD-55).
COD-54 — gate the /api/hook-event localhost bypass when a tunnel is up:
`cloudflared --url http://127.0.0.1:port` proxies internet traffic INTO the
loopback origin, so a tunneled hook request arrives with req.ip === 127.0.0.1
and the old bare-localhost bypass would pass it unauthenticated. Now:
- tunnel running → bypass requires a shared per-instance hook secret
(X-Codeman-Hook-Secret header; constant-time compare) + per-IP rate limiting
- tunnel not running (loopback-only, the normal case) → unchanged, so
already-deployed credential-less hooks keep working.
New src/config/hook-secret.ts; auth middleware takes a getTunnelRunning probe
(wired from server.ts via tunnelManager.isRunning()).
COD-55 — refuse starting the Cloudflare tunnel without auth:
enabling the tunnel publishes full terminal control to a public URL; with no
CODEMAN_PASSWORD the auth middleware is inactive and the bind guard never trips
(tunnel binds loopback). PUT /api/settings now refuses tunnelEnabled:true with a
403 (before persisting) unless CODEMAN_PASSWORD is set or
CODEMAN_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED_NETWORK=1 is acknowledged. New
isUnauthenticatedNetworkAcknowledged() in network-auth-policy; settings-ui
surfaces the refusal as an error toast and reverts the toggle.
Scope: the always-on CSRF/Origin guard, Host-header allowlist, and
network-auth-policy itself are already upstream (#113) and not re-proposed here.
Verification: tsc, eslint, prettier, check:frontend-syntax clean; full test:ci
green (2723 passed), incl. test/cod54-hook-event-auth and
test/routes/system-routes-tunnel-guard.
Review follow-ups on PR #111 (rebased onto master post-#112/#113):
Resize arbitration redesigned (review blocker 2): the previous
'cols < _ptyCols' guard froze a mobile-only session's PTY at the spawn
default — narrow phones rendered clipped and could never re-fit. The
guard now uses connection-scoped desktop sizing claims instead:
ws-routes registers a claim on a desktop-typed resize and releases it
on socket close (or when the same connection later reports a small
viewport), and Session.resize() ignores mobile/tablet resizes only
while at least one desktop connection holds a claim. A phone alone
fully controls its size (shrink, rows-only shrink, re-grow); a phone
glancing at a desktop-driven session can no longer reflow it.
mobile-handlers' keyboard open/close resize now declares its viewport
type so it participates in arbitration. Tests rewritten to cover
mobile-only shrink/rows-only/re-grow, claim/release lifecycle, multi-
claim behavior, and untyped legacy resizes; ws-routes test covers the
claim lifecycle over a real socket.
Solo/detached header restored (review blocker 3): index.html had
removed #soloSessionTitle and #soloRedockBtn, which _applySoloMode
still references — every detached window hit a null deref. Both are
back alongside the new mobile utility toggle.
Desktop leak fixed (review should-fix): .mobile-header-utility-toggle
had no rule outside the <=768px media queries, so the raw button
rendered on desktop. styles.css now hides it by default; the mobile/
tablet queries re-enable it.
Visual-regression baselines reverted to master (review should-fix):
the 18 contributor-machine PNGs are environment-specific (8 of the
behavioral tests already report environment-sensitive failures across
machines); re-baseline deliberately on the canonical machine instead.
The 24 behavioral keyboard/layout/tabs tests are kept as-is.
AGENTS.md trimmed to a pointer at CLAUDE.md (review should-fix) to
avoid drift between duplicated guidance.
Also dropped a dead getAttachmentHistoryForPersist stub (codex-branch
residue — no such method exists in src/).

A 15-agent audit of the merged tree confirmed 9 envelope/contract bugs;
all fixed here, with live-server contract tests added:
Blockers (fresh-install quick start broken):
- session-ui.js runClaude/runShell unwrapped .data from the /api/cases/:name
404 error envelope (which has no data key), so a not-yet-created case threw
TypeError instead of triggering the auto-create fallback. Now '?.data ?? {}'.
Contract violations on the new stable surface:
- Unknown /api routes returned HTTP 404 with {success:true,...} (Fastify's
default not-found payload was wrapped by the envelope hook). Added a
setNotFoundHandler returning the standard error envelope for /api paths.
- POST /api/events/subscribe 400 body became {success:true,data:{error}};
now createErrorResponse(INVALID_INPUT).
- POST /api/clipboard validation error lacked errorCode and shipped HTTP 200;
now createErrorResponse(INVALID_INPUT) -> 400.
- POST /api/run catch path returned bare {success:false,sessionId,error}
(HTTP 200, no errorCode); now OPERATION_FAILED envelope -> 422 with the
dead session id in the message.
- DELETE tail-file/:streamId returned {success: closed}, colliding with the
envelope discriminator; now returns {closed}.
Dead/regressed UI paths:
- Plan history modal could never open: route returned the bare history array
under data while the frontend read data.data.history/currentVersion. Route
now returns {history, currentVersion}; modal task count fixed to stats.total.
- Self-update error toast read j.error.message from the string-typed envelope
error, always falling back to the generic message; now reads the string.
Cleanup:
- Removed the stale QuickStartResponse type (unreferenced; documented the
pre-envelope shape and invited success-key collisions).
Tests: new test/http-contract.test.ts boots a real WebServer (port 3168) and
pins the envelope, /api/v1 alias, error statuses, and the /api 404 shape —
the route-test harness does not install the server-level hook, so these need
the live server. Updated file-routes/plan-routes/scheduled-runs tests to the
fixed shapes.

Point 1 of the v1.0 lock-in: commit to a stable HTTP API (the cleanest, fullest form).
Core (centralized):
- Every JSON /api response now uses ONE envelope via a Fastify preSerialization hook (src/web/server.ts): success -> { success:true, data:<payload> }; error -> { success:false, error, errorCode } with a conventional HTTP status. Non-JSON routes (file-raw, tail-file SSE, download, screenshots, /q redirect, WS) are skipped.
- Error-code -> HTTP status is a single source of truth (httpStatusForErrorCode in src/types/api.ts): 400/401/404/409/422/429/500. Expanded ApiErrorCode (added UNAUTHORIZED, CONFLICT, RATE_LIMITED). Errors are no longer HTTP 200.
- Versioned alias: /api/v1/* rewrites to /api/* (rewriteApiV1Url), so external clients pin to a stable surface while the bundled UI keeps using /api/*.
- Handlers stripped of manual 'success:true' (50 across 14 route files) so they return bare payloads the hook wraps uniformly; fixed the mux DELETE {success:<bool>} envelope collision (-> {killed}).
Frontend (48 call sites across 10 files):
- _apiJson() auto-unwraps { success:true, data } -> data (null on error), so most bare-shape readers are transparent. Raw-fetch sites relocate payload reads under .data; success/res.ok/error checks unchanged.
Docs: new docs/api-reference.md (envelope, status table, error codes, /api/v1, SSE); versioning-policy.md flipped — the HTTP/SSE API is now part of the stable, SemVer-covered surface.
Verification: full unit/route suite green (2680 passed) incl. ~166 updated assertions across 24 test files; typecheck/lint/format/frontend-syntax clean; a headless-chromium smoke loaded the migrated UI and drove the panels with 0 console/page errors; /api/status and /api/v1/status confirmed returning the uniform envelope live.

Adds an always-on Host-header allowlist and a cross-site Origin/CSRF guard,
hardens the text/plain body parser, validates the WebSocket upgrade origin,
and escapes AI-derived fields in the subagent panel. Closes the two
CRITICALs and 5 HIGHs from the 2026-06-09 adversarial security review.
- C1: no Host allowlist -> DNS rebinding drove the full API (RCE) on the
default no-auth loopback install. New registerHostGuard rejects rebound
custom domains; allows loopback, any IP literal, the bind host,
*.ts.net / *.trycloudflare.com / *.cfargotunnel.com, the active managed
tunnel, and CODEMAN_ALLOWED_HOSTS.
- C2: a global text/plain parser JSON-parsed every body, enabling cross-site
simple-request CSRF. Parser now keeps the raw string; /api/crash-diag
self-parses; the global Origin guard rejects cross-site state changes.
- H1/H3/H6: self-update, session create/input, and settings/tunnel toggles
were CSRF-triggerable -> now covered by the Origin guard.
- H4: the subagent activity panel injected raw AI tool names/inputs into
innerHTML (executed under CSP 'unsafe-inline'). All sinks now escapeHtml'd.
- H5: the WebSocket upgrade had no Origin/Host check (CSWSH) -> now validated.
A missing Origin is allowed so curl/CLI and Claude Code hooks keep working;
custom reverse-proxy domains need CODEMAN_ALLOWED_HOSTS=host,.suffix.
Deferred: H2 (self-update tag signing, needs signing infra) and CSP
'unsafe-inline' removal (needs a nonce migration).
Tests: test/network-host-guard.test.ts (19), test/routes/ws-routes.test.ts
updated. Report: docs/reports/security-review-2026-06-09.md

Make the branch genuinely master-mergeable and fix several review findings:
- Defaults are now prod-safe: CODEMAN_INSTANCE defaults to '' (→ ~/.codeman,
-L codeman) and the web port back to 3000, so an existing install upgrades
cleanly. Port also honors a new CODEMAN_PORT env var. Run the beta isolated
alongside prod with scripts/run-beta.sh (CODEMAN_INSTANCE=beta + PORT 5000).
- .gitignore: anchor the root `public` symlink rule to `/public` (a bare
`public` also swallowed src/web/public, silently un-staging new web assets);
ignore the gesture wasm/model binaries explicitly instead.
- span-displays: add a macOS-only guard (400 elsewhere instead of spawning a
bash that fails invisibly); extract resolveSpanUrl() for unit testing.
- server.ts: memoize asset-version stat() calls (~1s TTL) so each index render
doesn't re-stat every script/link tag.
- styles.css: hide the multi-monitor button in solo (detached) windows.
- app.js: require two consecutive unanswered roll-calls before redocking, so a
timer-throttled background popup isn't wrongly un-marked.
- index.html: make the "skip to terminal" link base-href-safe (onclick scroll)
so it doesn't navigate to the dashboard from a /session/:id window.
- Tests: test/config/instance.test.ts, test/routes/system-span-displays.test.ts.

* fix(test): share route error handler with test harness + fix stale assertions
The route test harness built a bare Fastify instance without the production
global error handler (server.ts), so structured errors thrown by route helpers
(findSessionOrFail → 404, parseBody → 400) fell through to Fastify's default
handler — yielding a `{statusCode,error,message}` body instead of the
`{success:false,...}` shape, and the tests asserted the old implicit-200
behavior. 51 route tests across 7 files were red.
- Extract the handler into src/web/route-error-handler.ts; server.ts and the
test harness now install the identical handler (single source of truth).
- Correct stale assertions across route test files: throw-based error paths
now assert 404 (unknown session) / 400 (invalid body); genuine in-handler
`return createErrorResponse(...)` paths (200 + success:false) left untouched.
- Reformat a few test files prettier flagged (pre-existing non-compliance).
Route suite: 307/307 passing (was 256/307). No production behavior change.
* test(respawn): mock child_process so AI checker never spawns real processes
respawn-controller.test.ts drives the AI idle checker (ai-checker-base), whose
runCheck() spawns a real `tmux new-session` running `claude -p`. The AI-enabled
tests only assert the ai_checking state transition (then cancel/stop), so the
spawn produced stray real tmux sessions and claude processes on every run — the
reason `npm test` (full suite) was unsafe to run inside a managed session.
Mock node:child_process here (mirroring ai-idle-checker.test.ts), spreading the
real module so `exec` stays intact for transitively-imported modules
(tmux-manager calls promisify(exec) at load). With this, the full non-mobile
suite runs without spawning any real tmux/claude.

* fix: isolate codeman tmux sessions
* fix(tmux): unify all sessions onto a single dedicated socket
Remove the per-session `tmuxSocket` field that recorded which tmux server
each session lived on (default vs the `codeman` socket). That field was a
persisted cache of physical reality and could drift — causing live sessions
to be wrongly marked dead ("tab shows no session found") and spawning
duplicate "Restored:" tabs.
All Codeman sessions now live on one process-wide socket (`tmux -L codeman`,
overridable via CODEMAN_TMUX_SOCKET), exposed via TmuxManager.muxSocket on
the TerminalMultiplexer interface. reconcileSessions() collapses from a
multi-socket scan (locate / re-pin / cross-socket dedup) to a single
`list-panes` query. loadSessions() strips the obsolete field from on-disk
records so it stops being written back.
Also fix two sibling bare-`tmux` call sites the unification would otherwise
leave broken (same #80 regression class — bare tmux hits the user's default
server and never finds a session on the codeman socket):
- session.ts queryTmuxWindowSize(): add `-L <socket>` (was silently falling
back to 120x40 on re-attach, losing scrollback)
- session-routes.ts send-key (Shift+Enter / Ctrl+Enter newline): route
through ctx.mux.muxSocket
SSH chooser scripts (tmux-manager.sh, tmux-chooser.sh) route every tmux call
through `tmux -L $CODEMAN_TMUX_SOCKET`, matching the TS default.

Adds a new autonomous loop that accepts high-level goals, generates
phased execution plans via AI, and executes them step-by-step with
verification gates between phases.
Core components:
- OrchestratorLoop: state machine (idle→planning→approval→executing→verifying→completed)
- OrchestratorPlanner: plan generation via PlanOrchestrator, Kahn's algorithm phase grouping
- OrchestratorVerifier: phase verification (strict/moderate/lenient modes)
- Prompt templates for phase execution, team delegation, verification, replanning
API (10 endpoints):
- POST start/approve/reject/pause/resume/stop
- GET status/plan
- POST phase/:id/skip, phase/:id/retry
Frontend: orchestrator-panel.js with SSE-driven state, phase progress, task tracking
