Every run mode is now a `CliEntry` in `src/config/cli-registry/` — discovery (search dirs, version + identity probes), the launch argv template, env handling, the `capabilities` flags that replace per-CLI branching, and the `overlays` that back the remote/docker pane commands. Code that used to ask "which CLI is this?" reads the entry instead. Behaviour is unchanged. `test/cli-registry-spawn-golden.test.ts` pins every spawn command as a literal string, captured from the hand-written builders before they were deleted, and `test/location-overlay-commands.test.ts` does the same for all 20 remote and in-container pane commands. Config can never contain shell text: an entry declares typed argv tokens, literals are validated against a safe-word pattern at LOAD time (a bad literal rejects the whole entry — a silently dropped `--no-approve` is not cosmetic), and values resolve through patterns NAMED in code, so a user `clis.json` cannot widen its own validation. `~/.codeman/clis.json` overrides any entry, read-only in this release. OMP is included as a registry entry rather than a tenth hand-written builder, so `buildOmpCommand()`, the omp availability pre-flight, the omp arm of `buildPathExport()` and the omp entries in the truecolor/NO_COLOR, alt-screen and doctor ladders all drop out. Guard rails: - `test/cli-registry-no-id-branching.test.ts` fails the build if per-CLI-id branching reappears outside `stock.ts`, in any of its four shapes (`===`, `!==`, `switch`/`case`, `includes`) — an `===`-only version would miss the negated forms, which is how 36 of them survived an earlier pass. Every allowlisted branch carries its reason. - `external`, `hooks` and `altScreen` stay three INDEPENDENT capabilities; deriving one from another shipped the `until=stop`-hangs-on-shell bug. - `param` is two namespaces. `launch.params` keys, `configSetenv.fromParam` and `privilegedParams[].param` all name a LAUNCH param; the legacy `<Mode>Config` wire field is separate, bridged only by `legacyConfigAliases`. Getting `privilegedParams[].param` wrong is SILENT — it is the multi-user bypass clamp's only handle on a CLI's privilege switch, and a wrong name clamps nothing with no error and no failing test — so `schema.ts` rejects an entry naming a param it never declared. - Registry data resolves AT CALL TIME (`sessionModeSchema()`, `allowedEnvPrefixes()`, `dependencyRegistry()`, the resolvers' `searchDirs` thunks). A module-level const freezes at first import, so a CLI enabled while the server ran moved the run menu but not that surface. - Six fields are annotated DECLARED-FOR-LATER and read by nothing (`shortBadge`, `accent`, `capabilities.echo`/`wheelForward`/ `keyboardAccessory`/`maxFrameBytes`): all frontend behaviour, transcribed rather than measured. A test pins the list so it cannot quietly grow. Three user-visible changes, all deliberate and named: - `probeDockerCliVersion()` derives the in-container binary from the registry rather than assuming it equals the mode name (`antigravity` runs `agy`). - The remote CLI version probe now covers grok and deepseek, which the hardcoded map it replaces omitted while its own comment said the rule was "every mode except shell". - `codeman doctor`'s CLI rows are generated from the entries, so Claude's install hint is the install command rather than a docs URL, five CLIs gain hints they never had, and the row order follows the catalog. Also hardened along the way: `sessionModeSchema()` is bounded at 24 chars (matching the `cliId` pattern) before its failure message quotes the value back, and `deepMerge` skips `__proto__`/`constructor`/`prototype` when reading the hand-editable `clis.json`.

CLI backends are now a data-driven registry instead of a hardcoded set of run modes. Every
CLI (Claude Code, Terminal/Shell, OpenCode, Codex, Gemini, Antigravity, Pi, Grok, DeepSeek
Harness and OMP) is a CliEntry in src/config/cli-registry/, and the code that used to
branch on a CLI's name now reads capability flags off that entry instead.
This is an internal refactor with no behaviour change: no new endpoints, no new settings,
no change to any request or response shape, and the spawn command every CLI receives is
byte-identical to what the hand-written builders produced. test/cli-registry-spawn-golden.test.ts
pins those command lines as literal strings, captured from the previous builders before they
were removed, and test/location-overlay-commands.test.ts does the same for every remote and
in-container pane command.
What the registry owns: binary discovery (search paths, version and identity probes), the
launch argv template, environment handling (exports, tmux setenv keys, the env-override
allowlist), the multi-user privileged-parameter and privileged-env-key clamps, the
remote/docker location overlays, and the behavioural capabilities the rest of the app reads
(isExternalCliMode, isAltScreenStripMode, hooksAvailableForMode, alt-screen strip class,
echo policy, transcript format, and friends). codeman doctor's per-CLI rows are generated
from the same entries, so its version rules and the run modes' resolvers can no longer
disagree about whether a given binary counts as installed.
Registry data is resolved at call time, never frozen at module import: session-mode and env-prefix validation, the doctor's tool list, and each resolver's search directories all re-read the catalog, so a CLI enabled while the server is running moves every surface at once rather than only the run menu.
Three user-visible changes, all small and all deliberate:
probeDockerCliVersion()derives the in-container binary name from the registry rather than assuming it equals the mode name. Only Claude reaches that path today, so nothing was broken in practice, butantigravityrunsagyand the assumption would not have survived the next CLI that needs a version.- The remote CLI version probe now covers Grok and DeepSeek, which the hardcoded map it replaces simply omitted — its own comment said the rule was "every mode except shell", so the two were an oversight from when those CLIs were added, and a remote session in either mode reported no version at all.
codeman doctor's CLI rows come from the registry, so Claude's install hint is now the documented install command rather than a docs URL, five CLIs gain install hints they never had, and the row order follows the catalog (Claude now sorts below tmux).
A user-editable ~/.codeman/clis.json can override any stock entry or add a custom CLI. It
is READ-ONLY in this release — nothing writes it, so importing the registry has no filesystem
side effects. Config never contains shell text: an entry declares typed argv tokens, every
literal is validated against a safe-word pattern at load, and values resolve through named
patterns that live in code, so a clis.json cannot widen its own validation.
test/cli-registry-no-id-branching.test.ts fails the build if per-CLI-id branching reappears
outside the stock catalog, in any of its four shapes (===, !==, switch/case, and
includes).
