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.

A task row is officer's own invention, synthesised from the harness's system.task_started, and
nothing corresponding to it is ever written to Claude's transcript. So rebuildTranscript can only
produce user/tool/assistant rows, and sync:live deliberately carries no messages — which left the
background-task tray empty after a mid-task refresh even though the work was still running.
Fold the durable log on attach into started-minus-notified and hand that back on sync:live. The
same read now supplies the cursor, so this costs one query rather than two. Finished tasks are
excluded: replaying those would resurrect rows already seen to resolve.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Refreshing mid-turn appeared to kill the agent's output. It never did: the
session survives a dropped socket, the agent keeps generating into it and keeps
committing durable events, and `close` only detaches the socket and arms an
hour-long idle timer. What broke was purely delivery — and the reconnect path
that would have fixed it could not fire, because the browser came back having
forgotten officer's session key. It lived in page state. The only id left was
Claude's transcript uuid in the URL, and nothing accepted that.
So accept it. `attach` carries the uuid, and the agent's on-disk session map —
the single record relating the two — turns it back into the key everything else
is written in terms of. The uuid now also goes out at `system.init` rather than
only at `result`, which is what makes the first turn recoverable at all: until
now a chat had no address until it had finished, and a long first turn is
exactly the one worth reconnecting to.
`sync:live` deliberately carries no messages. The harness writes its transcript
as it goes, so the HTTP load on landing already supplies the past; sending the
server's record of the same messages on top of it would duplicate them, and
there is no shared id to reconcile the two by. Attach hands over the rest of the
turn, the half-written paragraph the transcript cannot hold, and the session's
cursor head — that last one so a *later* drop replays from the head instead of
re-delivering the whole conversation from zero.

tool rows used to close on a five-second timer, so the list shifted under you
while you were reading it and a call you had opened re-collapsed on its own.
open-ness is now derived — a row is open because it belongs to the live turn,
not because it rendered recently — and your own toggle lives above the
virtualiser, which was throwing it away every time a row scrolled out.
the previous turn now folds when you send the next message, and it folds
visibly: the new fold is born holding the rows it replaces, so the height is
unchanged across the swap, then closes over 260ms. reopening an old
conversation still renders collapsed; expanding work is only a service to
someone watching it happen.
autoscroll was failing for three compounding reasons. it was smooth, and a
smooth scroll is by definition away from the bottom for its whole duration,
so new content interrupting it left the view stranded. leaving the bottom was
read as intent regardless of cause, so the interrupted scroll — and any row
measuring past its 150px estimate — silently disarmed pinning until you
scrolled down by hand. and nothing watched for the ResizeObserver correction
that arrives after the estimate, which keeping tool rows open made much worse.
pinning is instant now, intent comes from real gestures, and the list re-pins
when the measured total changes.
25 tests over which controls exist in which mode and whether each calls the handler it is named after. interactive, locked, isMobile, isLastPanel, maximized and an app's own zoomable/transparent flags combine in six separate ternaries; a control present in a mode that should not have it is a way to edit a locked screen, and a control missing from one that should is what the close button was.
Drives PanelSlot directly rather than through WorkspaceView, so the workspace can be put into states a whole view cannot easily be pushed into — maximized, mid-swap, mobile. Nothing new found: the close button is the only defect the chrome had, and it was pinned last commit.
TrafficLights took onRemove and isLastPanel but called onClearApp either way — isLastPanel only chose the tooltip. Closing a panel from its own chrome was impossible: the panel stayed, emptied, and the context menu was the only working path. Worse than cosmetic now that identity lives in the layout — clearing the app drops the config that named the panel's agent while the panel survives to be renamed by whatever is put in it next.
Also wraps the ephemeral pane's sizing effect in a try/catch: react-resizable-panels asserts rather than no-ops when asked to size a group it has not laid out yet, and an assert thrown from an effect aborts the commit — taking the whole dashboard down for a file preview's geometry.
the store every dashboard layout is written through had no tests. writing them found
a live defect on its rollback: the guard asked "does the cache still hold what i wrote?"
by reference, and setQueryData runs react query's structural sharing, which rebuilds an
object rather than storing the one it was handed. verified against 5.101.4 — an object
comes back !==, a string comes back ===. so the check was false for every container the
store exists to hold: every layout, every config.agentName. a refused write kept its
optimistic value while the toast said it had been rolled back, and the change vanished at
the next reload. only primitives ever reverted, which is why it went unnoticed.
replaced with a per-key write sequence, which asks the question the identity check meant
to ask — has anything written this key since — and does not depend on identity at all.
14 tests: readValue's kind guard, the optimistic write and its updater composition, and
five on revert including the object regression pin.
also moves testing-library's cleanup into test-setup. it auto-registers afterEach at
module import time, so bun attaches it to whichever file imports the library first and
every later file silently gets none. adding this test file was enough to break fourteen
assertions in DataTable.test.tsx, which does not import it. preload has no file scope, so
registering there removes the ordering from the question.

The last two selections in Soulseek still held in useState. `?room=` and
`?peer=` now own them, the rails are links, and the leave/close buttons stay
siblings of the anchor.
Both rails auto-selected the first entry on load, which is the reason the
selection was local: there was nowhere to put an answer the user had not given.
The bare section is a real state now — nothing open — and both panels already
had the empty pane to say so. Rooms' pane said "Join a room to start chatting"
unconditionally, which was wrong once you could be joined to rooms with none
open, so it now distinguishes the two.
Join and "message a user" stay buttons: each writes something and *then* opens
it, which a link cannot express.

The last selection still living in a global. `?folder=sent` is now the state,
the folder pills are links, and the open email carries it — a bare
`/email/:id` would have dropped the query string and snapped the list back to
inbox, so the row links and the arrow-key navigate pass it through.
The auto-switch to "all" when the inbox is empty writes with `replace`: it is
the app correcting its own default, not a place you chose to be.

`ui/toaster.tsx` was mounted in frontend.tsx and rendered a permanently empty
list: nothing anywhere imports `useToast`/`toast` from `ui/use-toast.ts`. The
app's real toaster is sonner, which is mounted beside it and has four callers.
`@radix-ui/react-toast` stays declared in the two package.json files on
purpose — installs are frozen, and dropping it means a deliberate
`bun install --no-frozen-lockfile` and a read of the lockfile diff.

Four navigates were flagged; one was real. The two ProjectPreview lines are
void — Projects was deleted in July. Of the two in DashboardPreview, the
create path writes the dashboard and then goes there, which a link cannot
express, so it stays. The Open Dashboard button in the edit form was pure
navigation and is now a link.

The audit said adopt the shared BackButton. It is not shared: zero importers
since the initial commit, no barrel entry, and a label-plus-underline shape
that fits none of the icon-only back controls here. Adopting it would have
redesigned the Jobs header under cover of a navigation fix.
So: a Link, matching what ScriptJobDetail and DownloadJobDetail already do,
and the dead component goes. useNavigate had no other caller in
PipelineJobDetail and goes with it.

Dock, Header and the mobile sheet were computing active state from
useLocation with two copies of the same startsWith helper. react-router's
NavLink already knows. end is set for Home only: without it NavLink treats
'/' as an ancestor of every route, and with it on the others a detail route
would lose its highlight.
Segment matching is stricter than the string prefix it replaces, which is
what was meant all along.

/plans/:name, no redirect guard: the bare route is 'no plan open', which is a
real state, so the auto-select-first effect is deleted rather than turned into
a Navigate. The picker stays a native select — chrome for one document, not a
master list — but it navigates instead of setting state.
Reading the server route for this turned up a path traversal: hono
percent-decodes params, so GET /api/plans/..%2F..%2Fsecret reached
join(plansDir, '../../secret.md'). basename() the param.

audit m7 ranked this medium because "every caller inherits the opaque click". there
are no callers. nothing has imported Combobox since the initial commit, there is no
barrel that re-exports it, and nothing anywhere sets `href` on a SelectOption — so the
navigate, the separator that only appeared for href options, and the href field on both
declarations of the type were all unreachable.
writing anchor semantics into a component that is never rendered is building, not
fixing. the Command primitives it used stay; AIHarnessesSection needs them.
audit m5. the active file is `?file=`, tree file rows and tabs are links, and a
`?file=` naming something that is not open now opens it — which is the part that makes
a pasted link actually work rather than just describe.
the open-tab *set* stays local state and i want that on the record as a choice, not an
omission. it is a working session, not an address: it grows without bound, every entry
costs a read on load, and nobody has ever linked someone else to a tab bar.
opt-in via a prop from the screen rather than the workspace identity the file browser
uses, because /code-editor renders CodeEditorView directly inside a Widget instead of
through the panel wrapper — there is no workspace to ask. a dashboard editor is
unchanged.
tree *folder* rows stay buttons, and unlike the file browser's folders this needs
nobody's call: expanding a directory is disclosure, not navigation.
two things fixed while in here. the tab close control was a role="button" span nested
inside the tab's own button — invalid before, and a nested interactive inside an anchor
after — so it is a sibling button with an aria-label now. and closeFile picked the
next-active file inside a setFiles updater, which is the impurity react double-invokes
in development to catch.
a path that fails to read is remembered, so a broken link errors once instead of once
per render, and the address is left alone rather than rewritten.
the file browser's currentPath was useState, so back and forward did nothing and a
folder could not be linked to. it is `?path=` now on /files, and the breadcrumbs are
real links.
opt-in, keyed on the parsed workspace identity rather than the base path: a dashboard
can hold two file browsers and one shared param would move both, while an unscoped
panel (cwd `~`) sits on dashboards too, so `basePath === '/'` would have caught the
wrong ones.
two things the audit line did not know. `?view=` is ephemeral — useFileViewerPanels
wipes it on mount — so `path` is this screen's first durable param. and four
setSearchParams({...}) calls replaced the whole query string, which would have made
opening any file silently reset the folder to home; they go through a setViewerParams
helper now that carries `path` across.
folder rows stay buttons. cmd/ctrl/shift-click is already multi-select in FileItem and
open is double-click, so anchor semantics collide with a gesture that exists. that is a
product decision, not a defect — written up for the owner rather than guessed at.
task-logs was a clean move — the detail fetch already keyed off the id, so only
its source changed. activity needed one decision: its two row kinds stream
through different query params, so the url carries the id and the screen derives
task= or path= from the registry row. the sse effect now depends on that derived
string rather than a fresh object, so the 3s poll cannot re-open the stream. an
id that has left the registry says so instead of waiting for output forever.
/activity also had no page-title rule and read 'Officer'.

/tasks, /skills and /processes are one component, so one route pair each and the
rows become links. drops the auto-select-items[0] effect: the bare route is the
list with nothing open, which is a real state. editing and the just-created flag
move to ?edit=1 / ?new=1 — a link row cannot reset them on the way out, and
deriving them means navigating to another item clears them for free.

/music?path=<rel> replaces the music:cwd channel. Each panel reads the param
itself through useMusicCwd(), so MusicBrowser, MusicDetail and FavoritesView
no longer tell each other where they are, and every drill-in is a <Link>:
library rows, folder rows, album/artist cards, both "up" affordances, the
favorites rows, and the dock's now-playing tile. Track rows stay buttons —
they play, which is a mutation.
A query param rather than a nested route because the location is only one of
the things this screen holds (the lyrics split and the favorites view are the
others), and a splat has to be a route's last segment.
MusicPlayerHost is mounted outside <Routes> and used to write the channel and
then navigate('/music') to make the write visible — the audit's only
navigate-with-a-side-effect. That collapses to one <Link>.
music:resync (a refresh signal) and music:favorites (a view of one panel) stay
channels, deliberately.

The section is /soulseek/:section — nav entries are NavLinks, the view panel reads the same
URL instead of being told, and the dashboard's tiles and recent searches are real links (a
recent search now opens that search, not the search screen's front page).
The peer went in `?user=<name>` rather than the /soulseek/users/:name the audit sketched: a
second path segment would need a nested route just to keep the nav highlight, and `?search=`
had already set the convention there. That deletes the `soulseek:user` channel and with it a
`{username, nonce}` request the Users panel consumed-once and cleared — the nonce existed so
asking for the same peer twice counted twice. A link is idempotent, so there is nothing to
consume and nothing to disambiguate.
`soulseek:refresh` stays: it is a signal, which is what channels are for.
/system-monitor/:scope, the same shape as /photos: route pair, one Navigate guard after the
hooks, scope list as react-router NavLinks, and both panels reading useParams instead of
agreeing over a `monitor:scope` channel. The Dock's isActive is a startsWith, so its
highlight survives the redirect off the bare route.
Five settings pages moved from a `*_SELECTED` global to `/settings/:page/:section`. The
sidebar entry is a react-router `<NavLink>` rather than a button holding the key in its
onClick closure, so a section is linkable, cmd-clickable and gets its active state from the
router; each page renders one `SettingsRoute` guard that canonicalises both the bare route
and a section that does not exist.
Integrations needed more than the shared factory. It builds its own sidebar, and it kept the
Enterprise/Personal tab in a second global — which is why a deep link to a Personal section
could never have worked: the link set the section, the tab stayed on Enterprise, and the
content pane said "Select a section" about a section that existed. The tab is derived from
the section key now.
Also removes the `/settings/resources` menu item (audit M8) and its two locale keys: there
has never been such a route, so it bounced to the catch-all and out to `/`.
Each item re-verified before deleting; three of the ten entries were stale
and are corrected in place rather than silently fixed.
- WorkspaceLayout's isMobile/mobilePanelId/onMobileBack: none of its ten
callers set them, so the mobile collapse they fed was permanently off in
that renderer. WorkspaceView passes the same props to WorkspaceRenderer
itself, where they are live.
- fixedHeight on AppRegistryEntry, and getFixedHeight with it: no app has
ever declared one, so it only contributed undefined. The flex-column
branch it shared with fitContent stays, keyed on fitContent alone.
- getDefaults: getAllDashboardState already folds the defaults row into the
one payload the client fetches, which is why it never got a caller.
- upsertScreen's terminals/hostTerminals: never read is right, never
written was not — it inserted them, which is why all 15 rows hold {}.
The columns are left in place; dropping them needs a db:push, and this
tree holds another agent's uncommitted schema file.
- SELECTED_DASHBOARD_KEY: H2 (01365cb) replaced it with ?selected= four
months ago and it has had no reader since.
- ui/sidebar.tsx and the stray ui/hooks/ beside it. use-mobile was not
orphaned as claimed — the sidebar imported it — and the use-toast in
there was a near-identical copy of the live one.
- findChildById's unreachable duplicate condition, and the doc comment that
described the wrong behaviour rather than the code being wrong.
Left deliberately: DragOverlay/LayoutEditor (gated on 5.3, an owner
decision) and the two chat-owned channels, whose docs are fixed here even
though the publishers are not mine to delete.
Four channels were bare string literals repeated across files, with the payload type supplied by each
caller. Neither hole errors: a typo yields a different, empty channel — publisher publishing into nowhere,
subscriber waiting forever — and a publisher and subscriber can simply disagree about the payload with
nothing to check them. defineChannel(name, initial) returns the hook, officerdev/src/channels.ts declares
the four, and every usePanelChannel call site in the repo now passes a shared constant.
files:refresh-signal was bumped two different ways: Date.now() at the Chat sites, setSignal((n) => n + 1)
at the FileViewer ones. The increment is wrong — useGlobal's functional setter applies against the value
captured at render, so two bumps in one render window both compute snapshot + 1 and the second writes the
same number as the first. Nobody re-reads and the file that was just written stays stale. Date.now() has
the same flaw at millisecond scale, and the four FileViewer sites (save, delete, extract, transcribe) sit
close enough to hit it. useFilesRefresh's bump is a module counter that never reads React state, so it is
right however many times it is called between renders, and it is identity-stable through a ref because
useGlobal's setter is a fresh closure every render and this goes into dependency lists.
system-settings:run-command is deleted. It had a writer once — 7c0b11c wired the AI harness installer to
it — and when that install moved server-side to POST /server-settings/chat-providers/install the write
went with it, leaving a channel whose only remaining writes were clears, a terminal pane nothing could
open, and a second layout nothing could select.
PanelComponentEntry's component, header and provider are typed with { panelId: string }, which is what
PanelSlot has always rendered them with. A no-prop component is still assignable, so no screen changed.
chat:active-session and preview:refresh are declared but still have no subscriber. preview:refresh has no
plausible one — the PreviewProvider that read it is gone from the repo — but both are published by the
chat panel, and that is not this branch's to change.

`<AppRegistry />` and `<WidgetRegistry />` seeded through `useGlobal`'s `initialData`, which is not a
write: it applies only to whichever component reads the slot first. They worked entirely by sitting
above `<App />` in frontend.tsx — any WorkspaceView that rendered first would have created the slot as
`{}`, with no second chance, and drawn every panel on that screen as an empty box.
Both are now plain functions taking the QueryClient, called before createRoot().render(). They take the
client rather than running as a module-scope side effect because the app list imports every panel app
and every panel app imports the Workspace framework; keeping the call in frontend.tsx, the one module
that is nobody's dependency, is what stops that being an import cycle. Making useAppRegistry default to
the static list was the obvious fix and is exactly that cycle.
registerApp and registerWidget go with the components. Nothing ever called either, and a registry that
can be added to at runtime is a registry whose contents depend on what has mounted so far.
Separately: officerdev/file-viewer was a registration for a provider fed by a `file-viewer:<panelId>`
channel that nothing writes, with availableOnPanel: false so it could not be picked either. The file
viewer users actually see is an ephemeral panel from useFileViewerPanels, which supplies the body and
header itself and reads the path from the URL. No stored layout referenced the key — zero rows across
dashboards, screens, dashboard_defaults, user_state and user_settings — so the meta and its wrapper are
deleted rather than repaired.

The microphone was the loud one: DictateDialog's teardown was guarded by
`if (!showDictate)`, which can never be true, because a cleanup sees the props
of the render that registered it and only the open render registers one. So it
never ran, and the mic, the AudioContext and the rAF loop stayed alive for the
life of the tab. useAudioRecording had no unmount cleanup at all — closing a
Chat panel mid-recording did the same thing, with no way to switch the
recording indicator back off. Both now release on unmount; the second is pinned
by a test that records, unmounts, and asserts the track stopped.
The rest is the same shape. Two sockets registered a listener once and held the
first render's callback forever — usePipelineRunner's carried a captured
streamingText, so a re-render mid-run would have folded every later event into
a stale buffer. PanelSlot built its default header as a component *type* inside
render, which React cannot match against the previous one. WorkspaceView handed
every panel a fresh context object on every render, including each frame of a
maximize animation.
VideoPlayer's comment claimed a dependency list that the code did not have; the
list is fine (sendReport never changes identity) and the comment now says why
that has to stay true.

The remount table in todo §5.2 was reasoned from the code and never observed, so
this mounts the real WorkspaceRenderer against a mount-counting probe and lets
the real layout-utils mutators produce the "after" tree. Eight cases.
It found one the reading had missed, and it is the cheapest of the lot. ChildEntry
returned `<>{children}</>` for the first child and `<><Handle/>{children}</>` for
every other, so the panel sat in fragment slot 0 when it was first and slot 1
when it was not. Remove the leftmost of three panels and the second one finds a
ResizableHandle in the slot it used to occupy — different element type, so React
unmounts a panel that nothing happened to. Scroll position, media playback, a
transcode, and for a chat panel a re-read of the durable log, all thrown away
because a neighbour was closed. Now the handle slot is always there, holding null
when it is not needed.
The other cases confirm what the doc said but for a different reason. Splitting
against the parent direction, and a two-child group collapsing, both change the
element *type* at that position — PanelSlot becomes ResizablePanelGroup, or the
reverse. React reconciles by type before it looks at keys, so the "reuse the id
so the key doesn't flip" fix the doc proposes would not have moved either one.
splitInner and insertPanel both ended with `100 / newChildren.length` applied to
every sibling, so splitting any panel in a group discarded every proportion in
it. A deliberately narrow sidebar became an equal column the first time anyone
split the panel next to it — and there was no way to get it back except by
dragging the splitter again.
The new sibling now takes half of the target's size and nothing else moves. One
helper for both call sites, because the drop path (movePanel -> insertPanel) had
the identical bug and would otherwise have kept it.
Three tests. Two of them were already there asserting the even split, written
against the old behaviour on purpose; they now assert the new one. The move test
is new and documents the interaction worth knowing: removePanel renormalises the
group when the panel leaves, so a move reads as renormalise-then-halve.
Two second implementations, both removed rather than fixed.
DashboardPreview minted template panel ids with its own module-level counter,
tpl-1, tpl-2, no entropy, reset every page load. Two dashboards built from
templates in the same page load held panels with identical ids — and a panel id
is not decorative any more: agent_panels addresses an agent by
(dashboardId, panelId), and terminal-conn-<panelId> and file-viewer:<panelId>
key persisted state by it. The templates now call the core uid(), which is
exported from the Workspace barrel for the first time so there is one minter.
metasToRegistry is Object.fromEntries, so two apps sharing a key means one app
stops existing and every panel holding its appType renders the other. The todo
asked for a throw in dev; a throw takes down every dashboard at runtime for a
mistake made at edit time, so this is a test over the real meta list plus a
console.error. All 44 keys are unique, and the test now says so rather than the
doc.
Getting the real list into a test needed test-setup.ts to provide localStorage:
MusicPlayer/useLyricsOpen.ts reads it at import time, so the whole app graph was
unimportable from a test. That unblocks testing anything that pulls in a panel
app.
Also deletes officerdev/src/useAppRegistry.ts — a stub returning {} with a
different shape from the real hook, imported by nothing.
The edit branch of the dashboard form rebuilt the layout from the template on every submit, then wrote
it. So renaming a dashboard, or fixing a typo in its description, silently threw away however its
panels had been arranged and whichever apps were in them. The template is a seed picked once at
creation; it is not a description of the dashboard as it now stands. It is now only re-applied when
the user actually picks a different one.
A rename also dropped `ws-terminals-<id>` and `ws-host-terminals-<id>` without carrying them over, so
every shell the dashboard held was abandoned: the panels came back empty and the processes stayed
alive with nothing pointing at them. Both maps now move to the new key with the layout.
The order those keys go into the PATCH body is load-bearing and now says so — the server walks the
object in insertion order, `ws-layout-<new>` upserts the row while `ws-terminals-<new>` only updates
one, and `ws-layout-<old>: null` deletes. Written the other way round the terminals 404.
Verified against the running server rather than by reading: seeded a dashboard with a layout and both
terminal maps, sent the rename PATCH exactly as the client now builds it, and read the rows back —
layout, terminals and host terminals all arrived under the new id and the old row was gone. The
no-op case (same id, same template) now writes nothing at all instead of PATCHing the layout back to
itself.

The allow-list existed on fourteen screens and was missing from every other one, which the previous
commit turned from fifty lines into one. These four are locked — the user cannot change what is in
the panel — so an appType that stops resolving strands them on the empty teal box in PanelSlot with
no picker and no way back.
Checked against what is actually persisted rather than against the defaults: `screens/desktop` holds
`officerdev/desktop` and `screens/files` holds `officerdev/file-browser`, both already inside the
list they are now being given. `screens/terminal` and `screens/dashboards` have no row at all — those
screens have never been opened on this machine — so they seed from the default, which also matches.
Nothing is rewritten by this.
Browser and Email stay unguarded on purpose. Their panels resolve through `components`, which
PanelSlot keys on the *panel id*, and their layouts carry `appType: null` — the app type is never
consulted, so pinning it would pin nothing.

Every locked screen shipped the same recursive normaliser: an ALLOWED_APP_TYPES set, a
normalizeLayout, a useMemo to apply it before the wrong panel could render, and a useEffect to
persist the fix. Fourteen copies, character-for-character identical except the two names — so a
fifteenth screen was a copy-paste, and a bug in the shape was a bug in fourteen places.
It is now `<WorkspaceView appTypes={{ allowed, fallback }} />`. WorkspaceView normalises before it
renders and persists the diff itself, which is the same two effects the screens were writing by hand.
One deliberate behaviour change: the framework normaliser drops `config` when it replaces an app.
The fourteen copies did `{ ...node, appType: fallback }`, keeping the old app's config on the panel
the new app now owns. That is the opposite of what `setApp` does, and a config belongs to whoever
wrote it.
Headscale keeps a local useMemo. Its check is not "is this appType allowed" but "is the server
picker present at all" — a layout saved before that panel existed is discarded for the default
wholesale. That is about a panel being missing, which the allow-list cannot see.
QrTransfer gains a persist-back it never had: it normalised on read and threw the result away every
time.
Tests: normalizeLayout is pinned on reference-identity for a no-op, null always allowed, config
dropped on replacement, rebuilding only changed branches, and idempotence — because a normaliser
that does not normalise to itself makes the persist-back an infinite write loop.

The sidecar has always sent `clients` on each session and this list has always dropped it, so a shell
you are typing into and a shell nothing is attached to rendered identically. It is now on the type,
shown as "N attached", and a zero earns the row an orphan badge — the count only helps if you do not
have to read it to notice.
Also records §5.1 and the whole of §1 in the todo, including that the diff-the-layout implementation
§5.1 used to propose is struck and why.
Three wrappers held three copies of the same `panelId -> sessionId` bookkeeping, and one of the three
still had the unmount cleanup the other two had removed: `HostTerminalWrapper` dropped its map entry on
every layout or route change, minted a new uuid on the way back, and left the host shell running with
nothing pointing at it. All three now share `useTerminalSession`, which forgets the session and kills
the shell from `usePanelClose` — a real close, and nothing that merely looks like one.
The kill request goes to `/terminal/_officer/sessions/:id`, which is also a fix. `RunningShells` was
asking for `/terminal/sessions`; the proxy strips `/api/terminal` and forwards the rest verbatim, and
the pty sidecar only answers under `/_officer`, so that route 404s. Verified against the live sidecar:
`/sessions` returns `{"error":"not found"}` and `/_officer/sessions` returns the list. The panel has
therefore always read "No shells running" and its kill button has always been a no-op — which is why
the orphaned shells it exists to surface were never actually visible.
