Two defects, one cause: the session type declared two fields opencode 1.17.9 does not return.
`GET /session` returns `directory` at the top level. There is no `location` object and no `metadata`.
Re-verified by reading the live server rather than the type.
So `metadata.officer.cwd` was compared against `undefined` for every session and the list filter matched
nothing — and since `cwdOf` substitutes a default when no `?cwd=` is given, the `!cwd` escape never fired
either. There was no configuration in which an OpenCode session appeared in /chat. Confirmed against the
running server: 7 sessions present, 0 returned, and the `OpenCode` badge in SessionList was unreachable
code. Now 1 of 7 is listed under the default chat dir, the other 6 correctly filtered to their own
directories.
And `location?.directory ?? ''` was likewise always '', so resuming a session reported no cwd and
relocated the conversation to the default chat dir — which matters because OpenCode rebuilds its
working-directory system prompt every turn. Detail now reads the session's own record via a new
`getSession`, alongside the transcript.
`officerMeta` and the `metadata` tag are gone rather than fixed: the only writer of that tag
(`client.createSession`) has no callers, because the sidecar creates sessions with `opencode run --dir`.
Tagging would have been a second source of truth for something `directory` already answers.
docs/opencode-parity.md B1 and B3. Its suggested fix — derive from `location.directory` — was written
against a field that does not exist; the doc asked for the version to be checked first, and this is why.

`label ?? override ?? route` made a typed tab name permanent. That is right for navigation — you named
the window to find it again — and wrong the moment you rename the conversation itself: the tab kept the
old name, and kept it across reloads, because the stale one is in sessionStorage. The rename looked like
it had failed.
Both are deliberate acts, so the newer wins. The hard part is telling a rename from ordinary navigation:
from the outside, "same conversation, new title" and "different conversation, different title" are the
same event — a changed override. Clearing the tab name on any change would have wiped it every time you
clicked a chat.
So the override now carries the id of the thing it names. Same id with a new title is a rename and drops
the tab name; a new id is navigation and leaves it alone.
The alternative was to have the panel clear the label directly, which needs a QueryClient dragged across
the workspace boundary the bridge exists to avoid — the shell owns the tab name, so the shell decides
when to drop it.

Phases 0 and 1 only, phase 2 is a decision, and open /chat first to confirm B1 before trusting the rest.
All of it was already in the document, near the end, which is not where someone handed a file starts
reading.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phases 0 and 1 are implementable as written; phase 2 is a decision and should not be handed over as
work. More importantly: reproduce each defect before fixing it. The B-list came from read-only surveys
and only the event-path claim was re-verified at source — one of those surveys reasoned from a dead file
for part of its report, so a confident inventory here is not the same as a checked one.
B1 is the cheap provenance test: open /chat and look. Either no OpenCode session is listed, which
confirms the survey was reading the current tree, or one is, and the whole list needs re-checking.

Three read-only surveys — the Claude sidecar as the reference, the OpenCode sidecar as it stands, and
every officer/frontend branch on harness. No code changed.
The headline is not a missing feature. OpenCode sessions never appear in the chat list at all: the list
filters on `metadata.officer.cwd`, and the only writer of that tag has zero callers, because sessions are
created by `opencode run --dir` rather than the API that would tag them. Resuming one is worse — the
model is dropped between the resolver and the chat hook, so a `ses_…` id reaches `claude --resume`. That
is wrong-harness dispatch, not degradation. Eight such defects are catalogued before any parity work.
Everything else hangs off one decision: OpenCode turns are a one-shot subprocess with `stdin: 'ignore'`,
while Claude turns live inside a persistent streaming session. Token streaming, mid-turn injection,
background tasks, live-session enumeration and reattach-by-id are all downstream of that, and the serve
that could support them is already running and used only for CRUD. The doc refuses to plan past that
fork until someone establishes why the serve-based turn path was replaced.
Four buckets rather than one list: broken now, Claude-has-it, neither-has-it, and what OpenCode has that
Claude does not — the last because it is what disappears in a project framed as catching up.
Thinking is out of scope for both harnesses by decision, and the selector is hidden rather than
implemented: it renders today and does nothing on either path.

An upload over a few MB came back as a 400 with an empty body, no message anywhere, and nothing logged
by Immich, the sidecar or officer. It was a race, not a size limit. Immich judges an asset from its
first few KB and rejects immediately, then closes; both our hops were still writing the body; Node
treats the leftover bytes as a protocol violation and replaces the application's answer with a bodyless
`400 Bad Request` + `Connection: close`. The real message never reached the wire.
Measured before the change: streamed lost the message 1/4 at 8 MB and 4/4 at 32 MB — probability rising
with size, which is why small photos usually worked and a phone's video never did.
Both hops needed it. Fixing only the sidecar took 32 MB from 4/4 failing to 2/4, because the platform
proxy was losing it one hop up.
Bounded at 512 MB, above which the body streams exactly as before. That ceiling is not a refusal and is
deliberately not a 413: a file Immich ACCEPTS is read to the end and never races, so a 4 GB video is
unaffected. All that is given up above the cap is the error message on a file that was going to be
rejected anyway. A first attempt refused over-cap uploads outright and would have broken the working
4 GB case to improve diagnosis of the doomed one.
`bufferRequestBody` is opt-in and off by default: the vault and wallet proxies must keep streaming so a
passphrase or macaroon never lands in the platform's heap.
Also adds the proxy error logging that made this findable at all — status and two byte counts from
headers, never the bodies. `responseBytes: "unknown"` is what exposed the stripped response.
Verified live at 32/256 MB (buffered) and 640 MB (streamed, passes through).

Sending a message used to collapse the turn above it, live, while you were still reading it. Watching
your own conversation fold up under you as you typed the next message is worse than the scrolling it
saved.
Folding now keys off `historicalCount` — how many messages at the front of the list came from the server
rather than from this sitting. Nothing collapses while you are watching, however many turns you send;
reload, and all of it has become history and folds at once, which is where the grouping actually earns
its place.
A count rather than a set of ids because everything historical is contiguous and at the front: the
preload seeds it, paging older messages prepends to it, live turns append past it, and a resume replaces
the list with a transcript that is history in its entirety.
Two consequences worth stating rather than discovering.
The last turn is no longer exempt. It used to be excluded from folding for being the live one by
definition; now it is an ordinary turn, so a reloaded conversation folds its final turn too — except
while it is still generating, since hiding work as it arrives is the exact thing being undone.
And folding is no longer a pure derivation over the message list, so a reload does NOT render identically
to a live session. That property was deliberate and is deliberately given up; it is the feature. The
state it costs is one number in useChat, never on the wire and never on disk.

The agent's input is a streaming iterable, and a message pushed onto it mid-turn is picked up at the
next step boundary — the running turn reads it and carries on with the added context. Verified rather
than assumed: a probe pushed a sentinel four seconds into a turn busy with `sleep` calls, and that
turn's own final answer quoted the late instruction and obeyed it. One turn, one result, nothing
interrupted.
So the design this was heading for — stop the turn, then re-send the message wrapped in "please
continue, but…" — is not needed. Nothing is abandoned mid-flight, no tool call dies half-applied, and
the agent is never told to stop something it was part-way through.
Enter on an empty composer delivers the queue now instead of waiting for the turn to end. That keystroke
was free: handleSend has always returned immediately on empty input. The queue still fills and still
shows as it did, so the default behaviour is unchanged — this is the impatient path, not a replacement.
Officer needed nothing: handleChat already pushes onto the live session rather than opening a new one
whenever `_claudeKill` is set, which is exactly the injection. The only thing in the way was the
client's own refusal to send while generating.
The affordance is stated above the queue because the keystroke is otherwise undiscoverable — Enter on an
empty box has never done anything, so nobody would try it.

The file-browser API does not filter them — readdir returns everything — so browsing for a working
directory opened onto .cache, .local, .npm and thirty more before anything worth picking.
Hidden by default, one toggle in the footer to reveal, and shown dimmed when revealed so they read as a
different class of thing. The count sits on the toggle and the empty state names it too: a folder
holding only dot-directories used to say 'No subfolders here', which is a lie with no way to notice it.

Every live row read 'Starting…' and linked nowhere, because the title lookup searched for a transcript
named after the session KEY. It isn't. The key is officer's handle for a conversation; the transcript is
named after Claude's own session id, and the mapping between them exists only inside the agent
(setClaudeSession/getClaudeSession). I assumed the two were the same and never checked — confirmed wrong
by looking for the ids from the officer log under ~/.claude/projects and finding nothing.
claude:list now reports claudeSessionId beside the key, the route resolves titles by that, and rows link
to it. Null means the first turn has not reported one yet, which is a genuinely unwritten conversation
and stays unlinked.
Needs the agent sidecar restarted to take effect — the new field comes from there.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The titles were looked up client-side against the sessions query already in cache, which only covers the
group being browsed — so anything running in another directory rendered as a truncated uuid, which is
most of them.
Resolved server-side now. The agent reports keys and nothing else, so liveSessionTitle finds the
transcript by scanning the project slugs, takes the cwd off its own first entry, and hands that to
claudeSessionContext — the same path the list uses, so the two agree on naming, /clear chains merged
included, rather than offering a second opinion.
A null title means no transcript has been written yet. That row says 'Starting…' and is deliberately not
a link: pointing at a session you cannot open yet is worse than plainly not being a link.

The previous commit added it to defaultLayout, which anyone who has ever opened /chat never sees:
useDashboardState seeds its default only when the key is ABSENT, so a stored layout keeps the shape it
had when it was first written. appTypes/normalizeLayout does not cover this — it repairs which app a
panel runs, never the tree — so the change was visible only on a fresh account. It was shipped with a
note to reset the layout by hand, which is not a fix.
The screen now replaces a layout with no chat-live panel. Replacing outright is safe here specifically
because the screen is locked: the structure is dictated by code, and the only user contribution is
column sizes. Terminates because the replacement contains the panel it tests for.

The /chat sidebar is now a vertical split: live sessions on top, the transcript list below. They look
similar and answer completely different questions — the list reads conversations from disk, thousands of
them, while this reads the agent's in-memory map over `claude:list`. Only the second can tell you a
conversation is still working while nothing is on screen, which is exactly the state that has been
invisible: after a `pm2 restart officer`, or from a browser that has never seen the session, officer has
no record of a live turn and only the agent can say.
`pendingTasks` is surfaced per row because it is the load-bearing number. It is what keeps a session
alive with nothing on screen, and what makes restarting the agent sidecar unsafe at that moment.
Polled at 10s rather than pushed: liveness changes without officer being told — a turn ends, a
background task reports — so there is no single event to subscribe to. The request is one map read.
Titles come from the sessions query already in cache, so they cost nothing, but that query only covers
the group being browsed and a live session can be in any of them. Unmatched rows show a short key rather
than inventing a name, and an unsaved chat renders unlinked rather than pointing at a transcript that
does not exist yet.
Closes the UI half of step 2 in docs/chat-session-lifetime.md.

resolveOwner already retried forever — but only when the query SUCCEEDED and returned nothing, which is
a fresh install waiting on bootstrap. A query that THREW escaped the function, rejected the top-level
await and exited the process, into exactly the PM2 restart loop its own comment says it exists to avoid.
So any Postgres restart (57P03 'the database system is starting up') or moment of unavailability killed
every live agent session on the machine and spun the sidecar until the database answered.
That is what took a session down on 2026-08-10, and why this process showed 468 restarts against 0 for
every peer that starts without needing the database.
The loop now catches as well as checks. Still retries forever, matching the case beside it: a database
coming back is a matter of time, and an agent that gave up would need a human to notice.

IDLE_TIMEOUT_MS dropped to 30s, a background ticker started, the tab closed. Officer logged the release
thirty seconds later and the job ticked straight through it — the exact point where deleteSession used
to call _claudeKill. Constant reverted.
Also worth writing down: restarting officer does not test this. The process dies outright and
releaseSession never runs, so that only exercises adoptOrphanedSession, which already worked.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Officer's session records are in memory and die with `pm2 restart officer`, while the agent is a PM2
peer and keeps generating. `adoptOrphanedSession` rebuilds a binding — but only when a browser
reconnects to a session *by id*, which you can only do if you already knew the id. So a session that
survived a restart was invisible, and nothing could answer "what is running right now".
`claude:list` returns each live session with `isGenerating` and `pendingTasks` — the same two fields the
agent's own `armIdle` consults before collecting a session, so a caller can tell "busy" from "merely
open" the way it does. Surfaced as `GET /chat/live`, which sits beside `/chat/sessions`: those are
transcripts on disk, these are the ones with a process behind them.
`getActiveSessionKeys` is replaced rather than joined. It returned bare keys, could not distinguish a
session mid-turn from one merely open, and had never been called by anything.
`listLiveClaudeSessions` fails toward EMPTY, where `isClaudeGenerating` beside it fails toward alive.
The asymmetry is deliberate: not knowing there means leaving a spinner up, and not knowing here would
mean inventing sessions.
Step 2 of docs/chat-session-lifetime.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Officer's hour-long idle timer was doing two unrelated jobs: collecting its own in-memory binding, which
is its business, and terminating the agent, which is the sidecar's. It could not do the first without
the second, because `unsub` was a closure reachable only through `kill`.
So a browser that went away killed a live agent an hour later — including one the sidecar had
deliberately protected. The sidecar already refuses to collect a session that is mid-turn or holding
background tasks: `task:started` disarms its idle GC, and `armIdle` re-checks and re-arms rather than
firing once. Officer had no view of any of that. A laptop running out of battery overnight took a
`run_in_background` job with it for no reason.
`detach` now sits beside `kill` on both streaming handles, and `_sidecarUnsub` — declared and called for
a long time, never once assigned — is populated at all three sites. `releaseSession` unsubscribes and
forgets the record without killing; the idle timer points at it. `deleteSession` is unchanged, so an
explicit disconnect still ends the session.
The third assignment site was not in the plan: `adoptOrphanedSession` sets `_claudeKill` but nothing
else, so an adopted session that later idled out would have dropped its record while the listener stayed
subscribed — a leak of one per adopt-then-leave.
No double subscription: releasing unsubscribes first, so a returning browser either adopts with a fresh
listener or starts a first turn with none behind it.
Step 1 of docs/chat-session-lifetime.md. Step 2 (a list verb, so running sessions can be found after a
restart) is still open.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Investigation only, no code. The sidecar already protects sessions with background work in flight
(pendingTasks disarms its idle GC); officer's hour-long timer knows nothing about that and kills them
anyway, and does not survive its own restart. Plan is to have officer release its binding instead of
killing, and to add a list verb so running sessions can be found after a restart.

The whole composer bar is the target, not just the textarea — a screenshot dragged out of the macOS
corner thumbnail is a small thing to aim with, and the bar is the biggest thing near where the cursor
already is. Paste already worked; this is the same attach path.
Three details, each of which breaks the drop silently if missed. `preventDefault` on dragover, or the
browser refuses the drop, never fires onDrop, and navigates to the file instead — taking whatever was
typed with it. A depth counter rather than a boolean, because dragenter/dragleave fire for every child
crossed and the highlight strobes as you move over the textarea. And only claiming drags that carry
files, so dragging selected text across the composer neither lights it up nor swallows the drop.
Non-image files in the same drag are ignored quietly: refusing the PDF among them with a toast would be
noise when the three screenshots you meant went in fine.

Queued prompts are almost always one thought arriving in pieces — a correction, then the thing you
forgot. Answering them one turn at a time made the agent reply to the first without knowing the second
existed, then re-answer once it did. Joined with a blank line between, in the order written, which is
how they read anyway.
The tray is unchanged: they stay separate rows, each removable right up until they go. What merges is
the delivery, not the queue.
Only a lone prompt can still be a slash command. Joined to anything else it is text that happens to
start with a slash, and running it as a command would silently drop everything queued behind it. The
drain now takes the whole queue at once, so it loops twice at most — again only if the batch was a
handled command and something arrived while it ran.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Send no longer refuses mid-turn. The prompt goes into a queue, and each turn's completion delivers the
next — one per turn, which is the whole drain loop. A slash command the client handles itself never
starts a turn, so delivery reports whether it did and the drain keeps going rather than waiting for a
completion that will not come.
Attachments are captured when the prompt is composed, not when it is delivered, so a queued message
keeps the files it was written with instead of picking up whatever is in the tray when its turn arrives.
The composer empties on queue as it does on send — a box that stayed full would read as "it didn't
take", and you would send it twice.
The send button turns amber with a different icon to say the press will not go anywhere yet, and sits
BESIDE stop rather than replacing it: typing a follow-up should not cost you the ability to interrupt.
A tray above the composer lists what is waiting, each item removable — without it a queued prompt is
invisible until its turn, which looks exactly like having lost it.
Stop clears the queue. Ending a turn is precisely the signal the drain waits for, so leaving it alone
fired the next prompt the instant you pressed the button meant to halt things. Nothing is lost: a queued
prompt was recorded in the prompt history when it was written, so Up brings it back.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Shell-style. Up walks back, Down walks forward, and past the newest is the draft you were composing when
you left — stashed on the way in, because losing what you had typed to the key pressed to get back to it
would be the worst version of this.
Up only takes the key from the FIRST line and Down from the last. In a multi-line draft there is a line
to move to, and swallowing the arrow would strand the caret; on the edge there is nowhere to go, which is
exactly when history is what was meant. An empty list, or already at the oldest, leaves the key alone too.
Per tab and shared by every chat in it, in sessionStorage. The prompt most worth reaching for is often
one sent somewhere else — re-asking in a fresh chat, or in the other panel — and scoping it per session
would empty the history exactly when a new chat makes it most useful. Slash commands count; they are
prompts you sent.
The tests caught a real one: `record` wrote state while `step` read a ref that only refreshed on the next
render, so sending and immediately pressing Up walked the list as it was one prompt ago. The ref is
written first now.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
It was built on a belief carried over from Claude Code's terminal: that interrupting means the agent
never read the prompt, so handing it back lets you say it differently. That is not what happens here —
the prompt is delivered and read before escape can land, the transcript keeps it, and the agent answers
it on the next turn. So the composer refilled with something already sent, and sending it again sent it
twice.
Escape means "stop, I'll say it differently" or just "stop". Neither wants the old text back. Focus
still returns to the composer, which serves both.

Two faults, and the visible symptom of both was the same: type a new title, press enter, watch it snap
back unchanged.
The rename 404'd. `useClaudeSessions()` was called with no cwd, so the PATCH went without `?cwd=` and
the server searched the default group — `findTranscript(email, cwd, id)` scopes by directory, so every
conversation living in a project was unfindable. Only chats in the default group could ever have been
renamed. The pane now passes the session's own cwd, as the list already did.
And the title it displayed could not have changed even on success. It came from `selected.title`, which
rides the `chat:selected-session` channel — published once when a row is clicked and never updated —
so the invalidation refreshed the row underneath while the header kept the old name. The title is now
resolved once in `ChatDetailPanel` from the sessions query and passed down, so the pane, the page title
and the row are one source. Renaming from the list's pencil retitles an open pane too, which it never
did before.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two things, one title.
The pane's header is now editable and calls the same `renameSession` the list's pencil does, so both
surfaces write the transcript's `summary` line and the invalidation that follows refreshes the row. The
id comes from the URL rather than `resumeSessionId`: they agree for an ordinary conversation and not for
a merged `/clear` chain, where the resume target is the tail while the list and the server address the
chain by its head — renaming the tail would have written a title nothing displays. `/chat/new` has no
transcript yet, so there the title is read-only.
And on `/chat/<id>` the conversation names the page, sitting between a typed tab name and the route
default: `label ?? override ?? titleForPath()`. Naming a window is deliberate and must still win. Not
gated on full screen, though that is where it earns its keep — the nav header is hidden there, so the
browser tab strip is the only thing telling two side-by-side windows apart. Tiled, the same value fills
the header's centre.
The edit interaction is now one `EditableTitle` shared with the nav header instead of a second copy of
it. `allowEmpty` is what keeps the header's "clear it to hand the tab back to the route name" working;
everywhere else empty means keep, since the rename endpoint 400s on it. `SessionList`'s row rename is
deliberately NOT folded in — it opens from a pencil and confirms with a check, so it is a different
interaction wearing the same styling.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Maximize could only ever stop below the nav header — the content region is an `absolute z-2` stacking
context and the header a `fixed z-10` sibling, so that was the deepest a panel could get on its own.
Full screen reaches the rest by asking the shell to stand its header down, which leaves the shallow
version as a state nobody picks on purpose.
So it goes, and the two lights with it. `MaximizeMode` and the `{ id, mode }` session value collapse
back to a bare `fullscreenPanelId` — renamed because "maximized" would now be a lie about what it does
— under a new `FULLSCREEN_PANEL:` key, so a tab open across this reads nothing rather than an object
where a string belongs. `MaximizeButton` is gone; locked screens keep only the fullscreen toggle, which
writes no layout and so was always the one control the lock could permit.
Red stays. The amber used to REPLACE it while maximized so the way out could never be a way to delete;
with amber gone that guard would have cost the close button entirely, and red is already absent exactly
where it should be — locked screens render no traffic lights at all.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Maximize had one depth: fill the content region, leave the nav header visible. That was never a choice
about how much room to take — the region is an `absolute z-2` stacking context and the header is a
`fixed z-10` sibling, so no z-index a panel gives itself can paint over the nav. `top-[56px]` was the
workaround.
So full screen is cooperative rather than a bigger overlay. The panel asks, and the shell hides its own
header for it; `inset-0` is then genuinely the window. Still the same element and the same class swap —
no portal, no remount, so scroll position and playback survive the step between depths the way they
already survived maximize.
The mode rides beside the maximized panel id in sessionStorage as one value, so the two cannot drift;
a tab open across this change reads the old bare string, gets undefined for `.id`, and lands on
"nothing is maximized".
The toggle is offered from every state, so taking the window is one click from a tiled panel, and it
steps back to a maximized panel rather than all the way out. The amber light is present at both depths
and always goes all the way out, so neither is a trap.

The client half exists in monorepo-mobile as of f29774a, with OffChat as the
proof of concept, so this document is no longer purely forward-looking. Adds a
section covering what shipped, the two places the advice here was wrong about
the client — one key per app is not possible on mobile (shared-session puts one
credential in front of all nineteen apps), and signout was never the problem,
distress signout was — and two decisions worth a second opinion: clearing the
credential on 401 only, and leaving the traded-in JWT to expire rather than
blacklisting it, because that handler clears vault tokens keyed on the user.
Platform chat ran at 200K while the same `claude` in a terminal got Opus 5's
full 1M. Nothing to do with the model, the account or compaction tuning — the
CLI gates 1M on `provider === 'firstParty' && Fp()`, and `Fp()` is satisfied
only when ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL is unset or its host is api.anthropic.com. We
point it at 127.0.0.1:5051 so the agent's traffic goes through the OAuth
proxy, which fails that host check and silently drops the window to 200K.
_CLAUDE_CODE_ASSUME_FIRST_PARTY_BASE_URL is the CLI's own escape hatch for a
first-party passthrough, and the assertion holds: the proxy forwards verbatim
to api.anthropic.com and already preserves anthropic-beta.
Read from the CLI binary (2.1.223), not inferred: claude-opus-5 carries
context:{window:1e6, native_1m:true}, so the model half of the gate always
passed. Only the hostname was wrong.

both forwarders buffered the whole request body into an ArrayBuffer before
re-sending it to Immich. with maxRequestBodySize at 4GB that put a phone's
video upload in the sidecar's heap for a hop that never reads the bytes.
callUpstream now sets duplex: 'half' so a stream is a legal body, matching
what createSidecarProxy already does on the platform side. the four JSON
callers are unaffected.
the platform proxy forwards no content-length, so the body already reached

Locked assets are gated on elevation, and elevation lives on a session — an API key
has no `auth.session`, so no key permission or allow-list entry can reach them. The
gate sits inside the generic owner-access check, so a locked asset's thumbnail and
original are covered too, not just its listings.
So `/_locked` mints a session at unlock, holds it in memory for the elevation window,
and closes it on lock, on idle, or when the active immich account changes. Nothing new
is written to photos_config: the pin and the password are never at rest, and a full
compromise of officer's database still does not open the folder. The cost is that
unlocking asks for the immich password as well as the pin.
`auth/*` stays refused wholesale in routes.ts. The four auth routes this needs are
reached through named endpoints that each do one thing, and the elevated forward
carries three resources rather than the main allow-list.
Not yet exercised at runtime — the sidecar has not run this code.

docs/mobile-api-keys.md — what the server accepts, what changes in
monorepo-mobile, and the 401-vs-403 distinction, which is the one that
bites: clearing a good key on a 403 turns a member's missing capability
into a logout loop they cannot escape.

there were four doors, not two. the ws upgrade in server.tsx and the
vault notifications socket each verified the jwt themselves, so a key
that worked against /api would have 401'd on cliamp — signed in and can
play audio would have been two different questions for the music app.
both now call resolveAuthToken. verified: owner key upgrades cliamp
(101), bogus key 401, member key 403 on terminal exactly as their jwt
is.
reset-password and verify-token deliberately keep verify() — they read
a purpose-scoped reset token and a key must not be spendable as one.

a toast.

a user can mint a long-lived key for an app or a device instead of
carrying a 30-day session, so multiple logins on the mobile apps are
per-device revocable rather than one shared token.
identity was being decided independently in userMiddleware and
originScopeMiddleware, each verifying the token itself. teaching only
one of them a new credential format is how those two stop agreeing, so
both now call resolveAuthToken and neither knows what a bearer string
is. verified: a member's key returns the same status as their jwt on
every route tried, 403s included.
a key carries its holder's full authority — not an escalation, it
equals what the password could already do. scoping wants a scopes
column, not a change here.

Extracting resolveNotifyUser into its own module immediately caught a hole
in the fix from the previous commit: a header that was present but
unparseable fell through to the body, so a browser could send junk in the
header, name any user in the body and win.
PRESENCE of X-Officer-User is the signal, not its validity — a malformed
header means a proxied request went wrong, and falling through hands the
decision back to the caller we just declined to trust.

A turn could stop producing events and stay `isGenerating` indefinitely. Nothing
covered it: the idle timer answers the opposite question — how long a session with
NO turn in flight may sit before collection — and every client showed a spinner
with no timeout of its own, so a wedged turn presented as a chat that was still
thinking.
On 2026-08-08 one ran for seventeen minutes inside an auto-compaction, reached
over the socket to an iPad, and was indistinguishable there from a dead app. The
compaction is silent by design (the PreCompact hook is the only announcement, and
the code's own comment allows 2.5 minutes), so there was nothing to distinguish it
from.
A stall watchdog now rides every emitted event: any sign of life pushes the
deadline back, and expiry ends the turn the way a real failure would — isGenerating
off, idle re-armed, and an `error` the client can render. The agent process is
deliberately left alive, since it may still be working and the next turn resumes
it; what this guarantees is that the client is TOLD, which is the part that was
missing.
The budgets are generous rather than tight — ten minutes of silence normally,
twenty while compacting, re-armed from the PreCompact hook because that hook fires
as the long silence begins and the deadline the turn is holding was sized for
ordinary work. Killing a turn that was about to succeed is worse than the hang this
prevents.

On a Mac, Claude Code stores its credentials in the login Keychain and never
writes ~/.claude/.credentials.json — the only file this proxy knew how to read.
The workaround was to copy the Keychain blob into that file by hand, which is a
snapshot: a refresh ROTATES the refresh token and revokes the previous one, so
the two stores were not redundant copies but competitors, and whichever
refreshed second got `401 OAuth access token has been revoked`.
That is not hypothetical. On 2026-08-08 it took out every chat turn from the
iPad for six hours while the terminal CLI beside it worked fine — the harness
spawned, retried for three minutes and wrote the 401 into the transcript, which
from the app looks like an agent that simply never answers.
So on darwin the Keychain is the authority and the file is a mirror, holding the
same token rather than a different rotation of it. Everywhere else — every Linux
server — the file is still the authority and nothing changes. Detection is
process.platform, and a machine with no `security` binary or no such item falls
through to the file rather than failing.
Three recoveries, cheapest first:
- a watchdog checks every 30 minutes and refreshes when under an hour remains.
It checks rather than refreshing on a blind schedule because each refresh
rotates the token, so a needless one is another chance for the stores to
disagree.
- an upstream 401 now RE-READS before refreshing. When a token has genuinely
been revoked the machine usually already holds a good one, because Claude Code
refreshed it into the Keychain minutes ago; spending our own refresh token
there is what caused the divergence in the first place.
- only if nobody else has moved do we refresh ourselves.
The Keychain write goes through argv, which is the only non-interactive form
`security` offers, and matches on the service AND account pair — the account is
read off the existing item rather than assumed, or the update would silently
create a second entry instead of replacing the one Claude Code reads.

The sidecar fronts a REMOTE instance — its URL and token live in
service_connections, set from /gitea — so it needs nothing installed on the
laptop. That is what separates it from the sidecars left out of this profile,
which supervise a local daemon or container.
It also had to be classified either way: defineProfile throws at load on a name
that is in neither include nor exclude, so leaving it unlisted broke the profile
outright rather than merely omitting it.

CLAUDE.md asserted "single-user is a hard invariant, not a stage" while
users held six rows and role_capabilities held grants. Every doc that
repeated it is corrected here, in prose and in the code comments that
carried the same claim.
The accurate statement is narrower: one owner who bypasses every check,
other accounts holding only what their role is granted, and a set of
capabilities — terminal, chat, files, tasks, items, desktop, browser — that
are structurally ungrantable because they execute as the owner's OS user.
TODO.md gains a Multi-user section for what the read turned up: no way to
create a second account, dashboards.id colliding across users, authorize.ts
untested, pty/vault/opencode taking no identity, Radicale still owner_only.
claude-sidecar-isolation.md's open question is answered rather than left
open — the per-email spawn model is dead weight, because chat is an
execution capability and no second account can ever reach it.

reset-password accepted any valid signed jwt as a reset token, including a
30-day session token — its sibling verify-token.ts already gated on
purpose === 'reset-password' and this handler did not. forgot-password mints
that claim, so the gate costs the legitimate flow nothing.
notify's DELETE /_officer/devices/:token deleted by token with no user
predicate: a token is the address of a device, not a secret, so any account
holding the notify capability could deregister another's device.
deletePushDevice now takes an optional userId — the route passes it, the
APNs/FCM dead-token paths deliberately do not.
POST /_officer/notify let a request body's userId override the
proxy-injected X-Officer-User. The header now wins where present, which is
what separates a signed-in browser from a loopback producer that has no
session to speak from.

Also found uncommitted in the shared tree; unrelated to agent panels, so it lands
on its own.
`reset` closed over `initialValue` from the first render, and its `useCallback` dep
list deliberately omitted it — with an eslint-disable to silence the warning that was
correctly pointing at the bug. Any caller whose default is computed (derived from
props, from a fetch, from another piece of state) got reset to whatever that default
happened to be on mount, which after the first render is the wrong value.
Reads through a ref instead, so reset always sees the current default. The
eslint-disable goes away because there is nothing left to suppress — the dep list is
honest now.

Committing work that was left uncommitted in the shared tree. I did not write it;
I reviewed it in full, verified it against the running system, and am landing it at
the owner's explicit request because no one currently owns it.
This REPAIRS master. `useAgentPanel.ts` shipped in dbe585f and calls
`/chat/agent-panels`, but `registerAgentPanelRoutes` existed only in the working
tree — so on master as pushed, every one of those calls 404s. The feature has been
half-landed since that commit.
What it is. A panel on a dashboard can be given a name ("frontend", "code-reviewer").
Naming it mints two things: a `sessionKey`, which is the panel's permanent continuity
(it keys the sidecar's on-disk resume map and `chat_session_events`, so the same panel
reopens the same Claude session), and a `handoffToken`, a bearer credential scoped to
exactly one verb. The agent in that panel is then addressable by name, and can pass
work to a peer on the same dashboard over `/api/agent-handoff`.
Three doors, deliberately separate:
- `/chat/agent-panels` (browser, session-authed) — name / list / rename / forget.
Mounted on the chat router rather than given its own prefix: these routes create
and name Claude sessions, which is authority `chat` already grants. A second
top-level mount would have meant a second capability entry claiming the same
thing under a different name.
- `/api/agent-handoff` (agent, token-authed) — peers and send. Unprotected by the
session middleware and exempted in `capabilities/totality.ts` with its reasoning
written down, because the caller is a subprocess with a token, not a browser with
a cookie.
- The transcript stays where transcripts live. DELETE forgets the address and the
panel's claim on the session; it does not touch ~/.claude/projects.
Security, as verified rather than assumed:
- The sender is derived from the token, never from the request body — there is no
`from` field on the wire, so it cannot be forged.
- Every lookup is scoped to the token's `userId` AND `dashboardId`, so an agent can
only see and reach peers on its own dashboard.
- `toAgentPanelView` strips `handoffToken` and `userId`, and it is the only shape
the browser routes return. Confirmed by reading every return path.
- Live-tested: a real token on `GET /api/agent-handoff/peers` returns 200 with
correctly scoped peers; a bogus one returns 401.
Two judgement calls in the code worth knowing about, both already commented at their
site: the introduction turn inlines the handoff token into a runnable curl (a
single-owner MVP trade), and `agent_panels` carries no FK to `dashboards.id` because
that primary key is mid-rework to a composite.
Schema uses `uniqueIndex` throughout, never `unique().on(...)` — the rule that exists
because drizzle-kit mis-diffs named composite unique constraints and re-creates them,
which is what wiped seven tables on 2026-08-03.
NO `bun db:push` IS NEEDED. `agent_panels` is already live in Postgres with 6 rows;
the schema file is catching up to a database that already has it.
Verified: `bunx tsgo` clean, `bun test` 538 pass / 0 fail across 35 files.

a pin on each chip lifts it out of the strip and into a row above it, so the
one task you are actually waiting on stops sliding off the end as newer ones
arrive. more than one can be pinned; the pinned row scrolls like the other.
a pin outranks FINISHED_KEPT and the bulk clear both — it is an explicit
"keep this", and it would be useless if five newer tasks could still evict it.
pinning survives the task finishing, because the outcome is what you pinned it
for.
the tray only had a bulk clear, so getting rid of one finished chip meant
clearing all of them. each finished chip now carries its own close control.
the pill becomes a div wrapping two buttons — a button nested inside a button
is invalid and the browser eats one of the two clicks. running chips stay
undismissable: the tray is the only handle on work still going.
A recovered row was appended, so it landed at the bottom of the conversation instead of beside the
call that spawned it. It has no timestamp, but it does not need one: the harness stamps the task id
into the output of the tool call that started it, and live the task:started event arrives right
after that tool result — so anchoring there reproduces the position the row would have had.
First mention wins, and that is the correctness argument: the id is minted by the call that spawns
the task, so nothing earlier can contain it. Matching the most recent instead was wrong, and real
data caught it — a diagnostic that grepped the transcript printed both live ids and pulled the rows
down beside itself. That case is now a test.
Moved out of the hook into its own module since it is pure and has nothing to do with React.

The harness delivers a finished background task to the agent by writing it as the user's next
message, so Claude's file holds a raw <task-notification> envelope as a user turn. Live it never
shows, because the same event travels separately as task:notification — it appeared only when a
refresh rebuilt the conversation from the file, as a bubble on the owner's side he never typed.
Same defect as INTERRUPTION_MARKERS and the same fix. Anchored to the start of the message so
quoting one inside a real message stays yours. Also skipped when picking a session's title, where
it is no more a title than a slash command is.
Verified against a live transcript: 38 user bubbles before, 32 after, the 6 removed being exactly
the notifications.

adding an email account failed with a bare "failed to add account" toast. three
defects stacked, each hiding the next.
the email sidecar's http.ts reconstructs what the platform's middleware used to
provide, but only did two of three — bodyParser was never remounted, so every
write route read ctx.get('body') as undefined and POST /accounts threw on
body.provider before ever reaching the credentials.
its onError then read `.status` off the thrown custom-error, which carries
`statusCode`. every deliberate 4xx fell through to the 500 branch and had its
message replaced with "internal error", so a rejected IMAP login and a genuine
crash looked identical. it also answered JSON where the rest of the api answers
errors as plain text. now mirrors hono.ts's handler rather than inventing a
second shape.
useClient threw a plain object, so the ~33 sites narrowing with
`err instanceof Error ? err.message : <fallback>` always took the fallback and
discarded the server's message. now throws an ApiError subclass keeping both
status and message, so those sites start surfacing real errors.
only email reads ctx.get('body'); every other sidecar is a pure proxy.
