pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 4ecd45c4a9 themes get their own control, and the vimazing keys
Fourteen themes was too many to keep under an avatar next to "Sign out" — that is where
a preference goes when nobody has decided it matters. It now has its own button in the
header, between the controls and the avatar, grouped by family.

── The keys, ported from the owner's vimazing ──

  ctrl+shift+l / ctrl+shift+h   cycle forward / back, from anywhere, no UI
  ctrl+alt+space                open the list
  j / k                         move the focus
  l or space                    apply the focused theme to the app BEHIND the list
  h                             back to where you started
  enter                         keep what you are looking at
  escape                        restore and close

The browse is the point, and it is why the overlay is a portal over a 55% backdrop
rather than a modal: you are not reading names, you are watching the application change.
The theme you started on is captured when the list opens, so `h` and `escape` undo a
whole browse however many previews happened inside it.

Typing is still typing: the list ignores j/k/l/h while focus is in an input, textarea,
select or anything contenteditable.

── Where it lives ──

The key handling is in the theme package — it is behaviour that belongs to themes, and
it needs no UI. The list and the button are Officer's, because a dialog would drag a
component library into a package that currently has none.

Verified by driving the real keyboard in a browser:

  start duck-dark · ctrl+shift+l -> plain · ctrl+alt+space -> overlay
  j, l -> tokyo-night (previewed) · escape -> plain, closed

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 997f7e7a87 the account stores a theme, not a colour mode
Your theme now follows the account instead of living in one browser's localStorage.
Choosing Plain on a laptop reaches the phone.

`appearance.colorMode` is superseded by `appearance.theme`. Along the way this
resolves a mismatch that had been sitting there: the server's default was
`appearance: { theme: 'light' }` while the client read `appearance.colorMode`, so that
default had never once been read by anything. Both sides say `theme` now.

The Light/Dark item is gone from the user menu. Light and dark are two themes, both
already in the list above it, and that toggle was the last writer of the legacy key.

── Two bugs found by testing this, both mine, both silent ──

**A default that looked like a choice.** `useSettings` returns `DEFAULT_SETTINGS`
until the request lands — `settings` is never null, it is a complete valid object. So
"wait for settings" fired on the first render against the defaults, marked itself
done, applied the default theme and never saw the real one. Then the persist side
wrote that default over the account's actual preference. It overwrote the owner's own
`dark` while I was testing it; restored by hand from the `colorMode` it had not yet
destroyed. `useSettings` now exposes `settingsLoaded` so the difference is expressible.

**Defaults masking a migration.** With that fixed, an account holding only
`colorMode: 'dark'` STILL came up light. The client merges `DEFAULT_SETTINGS` over
whatever arrives, so a missing `theme` is filled in with the default before any
consumer sees it — and a default is indistinguishable from a choice. The migration
therefore belongs on the SERVER, which sees the stored object before anything is
merged over it. It is read-only: a GET that rewrites the row on every call is a
surprise, and the client persists on its next change anyway.

Verified by putting the account into the pre-themes shape and asking the new handler
directly, rather than by restarting to find out:

  stored: {"colorMode":"dark"}  ->  returned: {"colorMode":"dark","theme":"duck-dark"}

── Needs a restart ──

The first server-side change in this work. Everything until now was frontend and a
rebuild was enough.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 e9cb244818 the wallpaper, the header and the mark belong to the theme
Asked whether these could follow the theme too. They are the three most visible things
on screen and were the three least reachable: `Background.tsx` hardcoded
`url('/landscape1.webp')`, the header carried `rgba(255,255,255,0.25)` and `#1d2724`
in an inline style, and the logo was an `<img src>`.

Between them that is most of what "the app looks like Officer" actually meant. The
Plain theme turned every panel white and all three stayed exactly as they were, which
is how they were found — the leak detector doing its job on its first outing.

Verified across all three themes:

  duck-dark   wallpaper=landscape1.webp  header=rgba(255,255,255,0.25)
  duck-light  wallpaper=landscape1.webp  header=rgba(255,255,255,0.25)
  plain       wallpaper=none             header=rgb(255,255,255)

── Images could not be done the obvious way ──

`--logo-image: url('/officer-logo.svg')` fails the build. Bun's CSS bundler resolves
`url()` at BUILD time and these files are served from `public/` at RUNTIME, so it goes
looking for a module that does not exist. Colours apply themselves; images cannot.

So a theme publishes a quoted PATH — an ordinary string token the bundler ignores —
and `useThemeAsset` reads it and wraps it in `url()`. One hook rather than the read
inline in two components, because the quote-stripping is the kind of detail that gets
forgotten the second time.

The logo is a `<div role="img">` with a background image rather than an `<img>`, since
CSS cannot set a `src` and a white-labelled build has to replace the mark from its
theme rather than by editing the header.

The header's title colour goes through a `.header-ink` class: `EditableTitle` accepts
a className and not a style, and the token stays the source of truth either way.

Panel radius and the ~985 raw palette usages are still outstanding — see
THEMES-NOTES.md.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 105766a4eb extract the visual layer into its own workspace
The application no longer knows what it looks like. It imports one stylesheet and
mounts one provider; every colour, surface and radius lives in `src/workspaces/theme`.

Proven both directions, because either alone would be worthless:

  Duck renders IDENTICALLY to before — checked against screenshots taken before
  anything was touched, not asserted.

  Plain renders as white with black ink, no component edits — panels turn white, the
  teal avatar turns black, the grid fills vanish.

── What moved ──

`globals.css` held three unrelated things: Tailwind wiring, the token contract, and
the Duck brand's hex values. Split along those seams. `base.css` is structure and
names no colour; a theme file is values and nothing else, scoped to
`[data-theme='<id>']`. Adding a theme is a CSS file plus one registry line.

Light and dark are separate themes rather than a mode — the owner's call, and it
removes a concept from the app. Each is written out in full: a theme that only makes
sense as a diff against another cannot be authored by a stranger or sold to a
customer. `.dark` survives only as a per-theme flag, because 396 `dark:` utilities in
33 components resolve against it; retiring those retires the flag.

The `duck-*` utility names are kept for now and pointed at neutral variables, so a
non-Duck theme can define them sensibly. Renaming 1,470 occurrences in the same commit
as the extraction would make any visual difference impossible to attribute. Worth
recording that `duck-dark` was never a brand colour — `#14532d` in light, near-white
in dark, used by 946 components to mean "text". It is `--ink` now.

Surfaces are complete CSS values rather than HSL triplets: `--panel-bg` has to be able
to be a gradient or an image, or the glass the app already has would be unthemeable.

The old provider is a re-export, so its six call sites are untouched and the
extraction stays one variable.

── Bug found by the Plain theme ──

`useThemeSync` stamped the server's `appearance.colorMode` over the local theme on
every load, so choosing Plain and reloading silently reverted it. Diagnosed by asking
the page what it was wearing rather than reasoning: `stored` said `duck-dark` when the
script had written `plain`. The server value is now a starting point for a browser
that has never chosen, not a continuous instruction.

── Tools ──

Two, both of which lied to me before they worked. The snapshot script photographed
light twice and called it a clean run (one browser context, accumulated init scripts);
it now warns when a light/dark pair is identical. The preview server returned the
shell for missing assets, so the logo and wallpaper vanished and read as regressions
in the comparison — it falls through to upstream now.

Dead Tailwind v3 residue deleted: `components/ui/tailwind.{config.ts,css}`, referenced
by nothing, with content globs pointing at a directory that does not exist.

── Not done, deliberately ──

`THEMES-NOTES.md` has the full list. The headlines: the reference repo has not been
read, so the switching mechanism is deliberately the dumbest thing that works; the
wallpaper, panel radius and logo are still component-owned and Plain proves it; and
~985 raw Tailwind palette usages remain, worst in Soulseek.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 430346e14b a restarted job outlives the server that restarted it
The other half of the same report. The pill came back after a refresh, and then a
`pm2 restart officer` killed the dev server outright — because `restartBackgroundTask`
spawned it as a plain child of the platform. A job the AGENT starts is a child of the
`officer-claude-code` sidecar, a PM2 peer, so those were never affected. The tray
therefore showed two chips that looked identical and behaved differently, and the
restart button's own help text promised the opposite of what happened.

Measured against a throwaway PM2 app rather than reasoned about, because the two
plausible causes call for different fixes — a signal to the process GROUP, or a walk
of the process TREE:

    plain `sh -c`           killed
    `setsid sh -c`          killed     <- a new session is NOT enough
    `setsid --fork sh -c`   survived

PM2 walks the tree by ppid, so a new session leaves the job a child and it is found
anyway. `--fork` is what matters: setsid forks and its parent exits at once, so the
job is reparented to init before any restart can enumerate it.

── What that costs, and how it is paid ──

The handle `Bun.spawn` returns is now the setsid parent, which exits immediately.
Waiting on it reported every job as finished the moment it started, so exit detection
moved to `watchForExit`: poll who holds the output file, and when nobody does, read
the status the wrapper recorded. That is the same liveness question Stop and Pause
already ask, so it adds no second notion of "running" — and a paused job still holds
its file, so SIGSTOP correctly reads as running rather than as an exit.

Two details that would each have been a bug:

  - A GRACE PERIOD. Between the fork and the job opening its output there is a moment
    with no holders; polling into it announces a completion for a job that never ran.
  - The command is a POSITIONAL PARAMETER to the wrapper, not interpolated into it.
    Interpolation would let a command containing quotes terminate the wrapper's own
    quoting. Tested with `echo "quoted 'both' ways"`.

A missing status file is reported as a clean finish, not a failure: that is what Stop
looks like, and "you stopped it" is nearer the truth than "it crashed".

Also corrected the button text. It said background jobs survive "because they are
their own PM2 processes" — true of agent-started jobs, false of restarted ones, and
now the wrong reason for both. They survive because they are outside this process's
tree.

── Verified ──

End-to-end through `buildHonoApp`, on a synthetic task:

    POST /restart -> 200
    holders: pid 906186 (ppid 1, session leader), pid 906188 (ppid 906186)
             probe process was 906173 — in neither chain
    quotes survived the wrapper
    durable events: task:started -> task:notification (completed), exit file "0"

My own assertion in that probe was wrong and the output is what corrected it: it
demanded ppid 1 of EVERY holder, but only the session root is reparented — its own
children hang off it, which is the point.

Not in `bun test`: nothing in the suite touches Postgres or spawns processes.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 eaa38c7d43 the maintenance buttons tell you when they fail
Asked whether there was feedback on failure, and for the restart there was not —
there was the opposite.

`useClient` throws on any status >= 400. The restart handler caught everything and
reported success, on the reasoning that a dropped connection is normal when the
process answering the request is the one being replaced. That is true, and it made
the honest refusal built into the route unreachable: a 400 saying "not running under
PM2" arrived through the same catch, so the button would have said "Restarting…"
while nothing restarted, and stayed disabled forever.

The two failures are opposites and are now told apart by whether an error carries a
STATUS. A status means the server answered and declined — real error, message shown,
button re-enabled. No status means the connection dropped — expected, and the
success path.

Both buttons also unwrap the message. The client throws with the raw response body,
and these routes answer with JSON, so an unhandled failure showed
`{"ok":false,"error":"…"}` and asked the reader to find the sentence inside the
punctuation. Five tests on that, including the cases where it must NOT invent one:
JSON with no error field, and a non-Error thrown value.

Found while answering the question rather than by testing, which is the wrong order.

── One thing I should not have done ──

I exercised the restart route against the live server to see its refusal shape. PM2
knows `officer` here, so it returned 200 and scheduled a real restart; the only
reason it did not happen is that my test process called `process.exit(0)` before the
250ms timer fired. Luck, not design. `pm_uptime` confirms the platform never
restarted.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 1426c3a856 rebuild the frontend without restarting, and restart when you must
Settings → System → Maintenance. Two buttons that are deliberately not a pair.

── Rebuild: real, and free ──

The same `rebuildFrontend` a plugin install already runs. `Bun.build` reads source
from disk on every call and writes `build/`, and the server serves that directory by
reading each file per request — so a rebuild lands on the next page load with no
process restart, no dropped websocket and no chat session lost.

── Restart: the only way to load server code, and it costs ──

Bun caches modules for the life of the process. Measured rather than assumed: editing
a file and re-importing returns the ORIGINAL export, and a cache-busting query picks
up that one specifier while everything it imports stays cached. So `rebuildHonoApp`
— which install already does — re-wires the same module instances into a new tree and
cannot see a backend edit. Busting the whole graph would duplicate singletons: two
database clients, two session maps, one process.

There is therefore no third button, and the screen says why. A "remount the API"
control would look like it reloaded the backend and would not.

The restart answers BEFORE it schedules itself, because the process serving that
request is the one being replaced. It refuses outright when PM2 does not know this
process — in development the platform runs under `bun --watch`, where the restart
would fail into a promise nobody awaits while the button reported success.

Verified: `POST /rebuild-frontend` → 200, 3.0s, 3 outputs; anonymous → 401. The
restart button is deliberately untested from here — pressing it would end the session
this was written in, which is the same reason it needs a label that says so.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 0230e62a71 the platform stops explaining what Headscale is
Correcting my own reasoning from the last commit. I left "Headscale's API", "the
Headscale admin credential" and similar alone on the grounds that they name the
thing the plugin drives, so renaming them would make the sentences false. True as
far as it goes, and it misses the point: those sentences are in the PLATFORM. It
has no business knowing what Headscale is at all. Correct language in the wrong
repository is still a remnant.

Ten of them, each replaced with the platform's own vocabulary rather than the
plugin's domain:

- `crypto.ts` and `secret-store.ts` listed "the Headscale admin credential" among
  what one key used to protect. It is "the tailnet's admin credential" — the
  purpose, which is a word this repository owns.
- `catalogue.ts` and `availability.ts` explained `alsoServes` — a LIVE mechanism —
  entirely through a Headscale example that left the repository. Restated as the
  general shape, with one parenthesis saying which case produced it.
- The photos types file explained another plugin's sidecar.
- `App.tsx` cited `/headscale/:section` as the example of a route pair; that route
  does not exist. `/photos/:section` does.
- `plugins/router.ts` pointed at `useCompanionLogStream`, a hook that lives in a
  plugin now.
- `registry.ts` said in the present tense that `headscale` is `admin` — the
  permission is the plugin's and it declares its own, so a member-facing enrolment
  surface would be the PLUGIN's to add, not this file's.
- `proxy.sh` cited `headscale/schema.ts` as a style reference. That file is not in
  this repository.
- machine-setup said "Its Headscale app" — the app is the Offscale plugin.

`machine-setup/lib/tailscale.sh` keeps all ten of its mentions: it exists to
explain tailscale, headscale and offscale to somebody choosing between them, on a
core install, before any plugin exists. That is machine setup's subject, not the
plugin's domain leaking upward.

What survives elsewhere is only dated history — "was here until 2026-08-15", "It
was: music, vault, slskd, headscale, …" — plus the notes about the real
`headscale_servers` orphan and the secret-store key removed yesterday. Those record
that something called headscale used to be here, which is a different claim from
explaining what it does.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 27aa72d923 finish the offscale sweep: two real remnants and eleven stale names
Asked for a thorough check that nothing of offscale is left in the platform. The
extraction was sound — no router, no permission entry, no app-store entry, no
screen, no panel app, no env var anything reads. Two things were genuinely wrong,
and both were in setup rather than in the server.

── The secret store minted a key for a plugin ──

`officer-setup` bootstrapped two purposes: `jwt` and `headscale`. The second was a
key for a PLUGIN, under a name the rename had already replaced, on a machine where
the plugin is not installed and nothing would ever ask for it. offscale encrypts
under `offscale`, and `getKey` creates on demand — which is precisely what lets
core know nothing about plugins. Now core bootstraps `jwt` alone.

── `.env.example` documented variables for a deleted router ──

HEADSCALE_URL, HEADSCALE_API_KEY and HEADSCALE_USER were described as driving
`/api/vpn`. That router was deleted on 2026-08-14 and nothing has read any of them
since. Left as a note saying where the tailnet's credentials live now, because
somebody with an older `.env` will otherwise wonder why setting them does nothing.

── Names that outlived the thing ──

Eleven comments referred to the plugin's route, panels, console or server registry
as "headscale": three sidecar config files describing their own shape by pointing
at it, two screens citing `/headscale` as the example of a Workspace/Panel route,
the terminal's note about the Console, and the photos types. Also `catalogue.ts`,
which still claimed headscale "is CORE now", and `working-on-officer.md`, which
told the reader a core install runs six processes including `officer-headscale`.

Upstream references are deliberately untouched: "Headscale's API", "the Headscale
admin credential", "is this a Headscale server?" all name the thing the plugin
drives, and renaming those would make the sentences false.

`docs/secret-store.md` argued headscale must be core because the tailnet is the
perimeter. Marked superseded rather than deleted, with the distinction that
settles it: the perimeter is the tailnet EXISTING, which machine-setup still
arranges on a core install — not the platform shipping the screen that
administers it.

Verified by counting: live code, setup provisioning, env references, permission
entries, app-store entries, hono mounts, dock defaults, screens and panel apps all
zero. What is left is generated files (Plugins.gen, plugin-schemas.gen), the
bundled catalogue entry, test fixtures using "offscale" as an example app name,
and history.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 8ad5a5563e clicking a plugin works again, and offscale gets its icon
Two regressions and one long-standing hole, all found by actually opening the page.

── Clicking a row did nothing. That one is mine ──

Rows link to `?selected=<app>`, and they still pointed at `/plugins`. My redirect
was `<Navigate to="/marketplace" replace />`, which DROPS the query string — so a
click went to `/plugins?selected=music`, redirected to a bare `/marketplace`, and
the detail pane sat on "Select a plugin." Both halves worked; the redirect threw
away what the link had just set.

Rows now point at `/marketplace` directly. The redirect also preserves `search`,
because old bookmarks carry the same param and losing it is exactly what made this
wrong the first time.

── Offscale's icon 404'd since it shipped one ──

Assets were published to `public/plugins/<app>/` at INSTALL and nowhere else.
Offscale was installed before it had an `assets/icon.png`, so the directory never
existed and the tile drew a 404 permanently — nothing short of uninstalling and
reinstalling would have fixed it. "Reinstall the plugin to see its new icon" is
the same bad answer as "restart the server to see it", which the route right next
to this already refuses to accept.

Publishing now happens on every mount. It is a copy of files that still exist in
the plugin's own source, so re-running it is free and cannot lose anything — the
property that already makes unpublish the one thing uninstall may delete. A
failure is logged, never thrown: an icon is not worth refusing to mount over.

Published offscale's by hand too, so the fix is visible without waiting for a
restart. Verified 200 through the running server for both plugins.

── The third report was not a bug ──

"No connection to the marketplace" is the catalogue working correctly: all three
plugins are already on disk here, and `router.ts` drops catalogue entries whose
plugin is installed, because offering to install something installed is worse than
showing nothing. With nothing left to offer, a working store and a broken one look
identical on that screen. Nothing in the logs, which is what a reachable store
looks like — the client only speaks when it cannot reach one.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 bfb20b6916 the /offscale route comment, and the store learns about ssh
The platform's own reference to offscale was one stale comment naming /headscale
as an example route pair. Everything else that matches "offscale" in src/ is a
test fixture using it as an example app name, or the bundled catalogue entry.

Re-synced the marketplace so the catalogue advertises the ssh dependency the
manifest now declares — which is the point of the sync being cheap to re-run: a
plugin's manifest changing is not a marketplace deployment.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 1b65b83f1f the plugins screen becomes /marketplace
`/plugins` redirects rather than 404s: the word is in the dock, in the docs and in
whatever anyone bookmarked, and a route that worked yesterday returning nothing
reads as the feature having been removed. The API keeps its name — only the screen
moved — so the permission entry lists both paths, because a client-side redirect
is still a route that has to resolve before it can send anyone anywhere.

Also: the fetch stubs in marketplace.test.ts needed `as unknown as typeof fetch`.
Bun's `typeof fetch` carries `preconnect`, so a bare stub is not assignable —
tests passed while tsgo did not, which is the wrong way round to find out.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 559560de48 the folder is the URL: /files/Tests/test folder
`?path=/Tests/test_folder` becomes `/files/Tests/test%20folder`. Directories only —
an open file stays `?view=`, because it is what is on top of you rather than where
you are, and that split is what keeps closing a pane from moving you.

── The landmine, found before building on it ──

`server.tsx` 404s any path ending .js/.css/.map/.png/.svg/.ico/.webmanifest/.woff2
that is not in `build/`, so it never reaches the SPA. A folder named `logo.png` is
unusual but legal, and it would have deep-linked to a 404 that reads as a broken
link rather than a rule.

Narrowed to SINGLE-SEGMENT paths, which is safe on evidence rather than by
loosening a rule: the bundler emits exactly three files, all at the root of
`build/`, so a real asset never has a second slash; and multi-segment assets
(`public/**`, `/plugins/<app>/icon.png`) are served by Bun's `routes` table before
this handler runs.

── Encoding is the part that breaks quietly ──

Per SEGMENT, never the whole path — encodeURIComponent would eat the separators.
14 tests over the round trip, because a filename may carry anything but `/` and
NUL. The ones that matter: `#` truncates a URL at the fragment if unescaped, a
literal `%` is mistaken for an escape, and malformed input must not throw
(decodeURIComponent('%zz') raises URIError, and that would take the screen down).
Parentheses stay readable — encodeURIComponent leaves them alone — so
`Kanban (copy 2)` survives as `Kanban%20(copy%202)`.

── The rest ──

- `/files` → `/files/*`. The bare route still matches with an empty splat, so every
  existing link, the dock entry and DEFAULT_DOCK_PATHS keep working.
- Breadcrumbs take a `To` instead of a query string and are still real links.
- Old `?path=` URLs redirect once, in place, with `replace` so it is not a
  back-button step. A bookmark from this morning still lands where it meant to.
- `setViewerParams` stopped copying `path` across, because there is nothing to
  copy — the folder is the pathname and is untouched by a search-param write.

Checked and needing nothing: the page-title rule is `startsWith('/files')`, and the
dock uses react-router NavLink without `end`, so `/files/Tests` keeps the tile lit.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 29170dd922 installing a plugin pins its dock tile, with no reload
Installing Music left the dock unchanged. The tile existed server-side the
moment the plugin was enabled, and the only way to see it was Profile → Dock,
by hand, after a page refresh. Installing something is already the decision to
use it; saying so twice is the bug.

Three separate causes, which is why it looked like one stubborn one:

1. `dock_configs.paths` is a COMPLETE ordered list, not a diff — useDock renders
   the saved list rather than everything available, so anything not named in it
   is invisible. Nothing in the plugin system had ever written to that table.
   installPlugin now appends the new route, for the caller (threaded through the
   route) rather than a guessed owner id.

   Only for a user who HAS a row. A user without one is left alone deliberately:
   there is nothing to append to, and writing one would freeze today's defaults
   into their account permanently. That case is (2).

2. The fallback for a user who never customised was DEFAULT_DOCK_PATHS, which is
   core-only — so a plugin tile was hidden there too. `defaultDockPaths(plugins)`
   is now that list plus a tile per installed plugin, and the dock and its
   settings screen both call it so they cannot disagree about what "default"
   means.

3. useDock holds ['DOCK'] at staleTime: Infinity and the plugin verbs invalidated
   only ['plugins'] and ['self-permissions']. So even once the server wrote the
   path, nothing asked again — that is the part that made a reload necessary.

Also fixes a guard I broke reaching for this: typing VERBS as
Record<string, VerbFn> widens keyof to `string`, which makes `isVerb` prove
nothing and lets an unknown verb index the map. `satisfies` instead, and there is
now a check that Verb is still the four-member union.

Uninstall deliberately does not remove the path. A stale path with no item behind
it is dropped by useDock, and keeping it means disable/enable and reinstall put
the tile back where the user had it rather than at the end.

tsgo clean, frontend builds. 787 pass / 7 fail — 6 identical to before; the 7th
is plugins/music/cliamp, which install pulled into test discovery and which the
manifest documents as parked.

pastilhas 9c2d6a97f7 a tested migration script for the capabilities→permissions rename
Other machines have to make the same database change, and pasted SQL is the
wrong way to ship it. `scripts/rename-capabilities-to-permissions.ts` renames
the table, its column, both indexes and its three CHECK constraints in one
transaction, and refuses to guess:

  neither table        nothing to do; db:push will create it
  already renamed      no-op, prints the grant count
  BOTH tables present  stops and says a human must decide
  old table only       migrates, counts before and after, prints every grant

Testing it found a bug that reading it had not. The existence checks were
inside the transaction but ran on the pool rather than on `tx`, so they could
not see the uncommitted rename: `columnExists('role_permissions','capability')`
answered false because that table did not exist yet on that connection, and the
COLUMN rename was silently skipped. The result was a `role_permissions` table
with a `capability` column — half migrated, and only failing on the next query.

That was found by building a scratch database in edge-pertento's exact shape
and running the script against it, rather than by review. Every check now
happens before the transaction, against the old names.

Verified end to end on that scratch: 6 grants migrated intact, a second run
correctly no-ops, and `db:push` afterwards leaves role_permissions and its rows
alone while creating the rest of the schema. Indexes come out as
role_permissions_pkey and uq_role_permissions_role_permission.

Also swept the last all-caps survivors the case-sensitive passes missed:
CORE_CAPABILITIES → CORE_PERMISSIONS, and a react-query key still spelling
['ROLE_CAPABILITIES']. The only CAPABILITIES left in src/ is the wallet's, which
is Lightning and stays.

pastilhas 027b10bd6e step 4/4: the docs say permissions too, and capability means one thing again
44 files of prose — CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, TODO.md, 20 docs, both plugin design
documents, and the comment surface the earlier steps could not reach.

Applied against an explicit keep-list, not swept, because the word turned out to
have SIX meanings in this repository rather than the three the offscale doc
recorded:

  permissions          renamed (steps 1–2)
  $OFFICER_ROOT/capabilities/  KEPT — the item store, and now the only thing
                               the word means that is ours
  sidecar routing keys renamed to `handles` (step 3)
  Lightning wallet     KEPT — a domain term, and on the wire to the mobile apps
  terminfo queries     KEPT — XTGETTCAP, in the pty sidecar
  InvoiceShelf         KEPT — per-resource { write, bulkDelete } flags

The sweep still falsified two things, both caught by checking rather than by
review, and both in prose that discusses more than one meaning at once:

CLAUDE.md began claiming the item store lives at `$OFFICER_ROOT/permissions`.
It does not; that directory is on disk and full of skills and tools.

And the offscale doc's own note about the collision became
"Named `permissions`, NOT `permissions`" — a sentence that had eaten the thing
it existed to warn about.

Both restored, and the note rewritten to say what is now true: capability means
one thing of ours, and three that belong to somebody else's vocabulary.

Verified live after restart: self and admin permission endpoints 200, gated
route 200, agent-status 200, 9 grants intact with 6 permissions offered.
tsgo clean, 797 tests, 787 pass, same 7.

The rename is done. Four steps, no data lost, no client break that survived
the step it was introduced in.
2026-08-15 16:31:11 +00:00
pastilhas 2e8ec845c8 step 1/4: the permission engine is called permissions, not capabilities
The word meant four different things in this repo, not the three the offscale
doc records:

  1. the permission registry              → RENAMED here
  2. $OFFICER_ROOT/capabilities/ items    → kept; this is what capabilities are
  3. sidecar routing keys                 → step 3, becoming `handles`
  4. Lightning wallet features            → kept; a domain term, and on the wire
                                            to the mobile apps

The fourth was not in the doc and a global find-and-replace would have broken
the mobile wallet, which reads `{ kind, capabilities: Capability[] }` from the
wallet sidecar. So this renamed against an explicit file allowlist rather than
by sweeping the tree, and `CapabilityPage.tsx` — the UI for the item store, and
correctly named already — was left alone.

Moved: servers/capabilities/ → servers/permissions/, capability-gate.ts →
permission-gate.ts, users/capabilities-routes.ts → permissions-routes.ts,
hooks/useCapabilities.ts → usePermissions.ts. Identifiers follow.

Three breaks the typechecker could not see, all found by exercising it live.

The route paths moved with the prose sweep, so the server served
/user/permissions while the frontend still called /user/capabilities. A 404 on
every page load, and tsgo clean throughout.

The response FIELD moved too. `client.get<SelfPermissions>()` is an unchecked
cast, so `data.capabilities` became `undefined` at runtime with no compile
error — `can()` would have answered "no" to everything and the dock would have
emptied itself.

And the grants list was passed straight out of the database, so it arrived as
`{ role, capability, level }` while the screen read `grant.permission`. Every
role would have rendered as holding nothing. It is now mapped in the route:
the wire says `permission`, the column still says `capability`, and step 2
therefore changes nothing any client can see.

The stale react-query keys were the quiet one: two files still invalidated
['self-capabilities'] after the hook moved to ['self-permissions'], so
installing a plugin would have silently stopped refreshing the dock.

The database is untouched — `role_capabilities` and its `capability` column are
step 2, and the two call sites that cross that boundary say so in a comment.
Round-tripped the 9 live grants through the admin endpoint to prove the PUT
contract survived: 9 before, 9 after, Member's three intact.

Also reverted prettier churn on five landing-page files that a broad --write
picked up. Second time today; the lesson is not sticking.

tsgo clean. 797 tests, 787 pass, same 7 pre-existing failures — two of which
now read "path → permission" rather than "path → capability".

pastilhas 9b1c0a75b2 a dock tile can be bare, so artwork is not framed in a swatch
The tile background exists so a white lucide glyph has something to sit on —
on nothing it is invisible. Artwork does not need it, and a logo framed in an
arbitrary coloured square reads as a mistake.

  badge  rounded square filled with `color`, icon inset   (what a glyph needs)
  bare   no background, artwork fills the tile            (what a mark wants)

DEFAULTED from whether the plugin ships assets/icon.png — artwork gets bare, a
glyph gets badge — with `tile` on the manifest to override either way. Presence
is the declaration, as everywhere else here; the field exists only for the
plugin whose artwork genuinely wants a backdrop. Music sets nothing and gets
bare.

`color` is still required either way. It does four jobs and only one of them is
the square: the active glow, the indicator dot and the plugins-list tint all
read it too.

The icon was also smaller than it looked. The source carried ~8% transparent
margin on every side and the artwork is 233x221 inside a square frame, so with
the old `h-7 w-7` inset inside a `w-10` box the duck occupied roughly 39% of
the tile's area. Cropped to its alpha bounding box, padded back to square to
keep aspect, and rescaled: it now fills 95% of the frame instead of 79%, and
`bare` gives it the whole tile instead of half.

Measured rather than eyeballed — the bounding box came from extracting the
alpha plane and scanning it, then the crop was applied to the 1254px original
so nothing was resampled twice.

tsgo clean, 797 tests, 787 pass, same 7. Verified live: music reports
tile=bare, example and offscale still badge.
2026-08-15 15:21:25 +00:00
pastilhas f78abbe05a a plugin ships its own dock icon as a file, not a lucide name
The manifest's `icon` was a lucide NAME, resolved by `resolveIcon` — which
knows 106 glyphs out of lucide's ~1,500. A plugin naming one outside that set
silently rendered a neutral box, and a plugin from a marketplace had no way to
see the ceiling coming.

So the icon is a FILE now: `plugins/<name>/assets/icon.png`, discovered by
presence like everything else here. `manifest.icon` stays as an optional
fallback for a plugin with no artwork — example and offscale still use it — and
the file wins when both exist.

No new mechanism was needed. The app store already published sidecar assets:
`<dir>/assets/` → `public/plugins/<id>/`, served by a dynamic `/plugins/*`
route, with `DockItem.image` rendering an <img>. `pluginDockManifests()` simply
never emitted `image`. Install now publishes and uninstall unpublishes — the
one thing uninstall is allowed to delete, because these are copies whose
originals are still in the plugin's source.

Base64 in the manifest was considered and dropped. It would ride in every
/api/user/capabilities response for every user on every page load, can't be
cached separately, and puts a 5KB string literal in a source file — against the
rule this manifest keeps: what a directory listing can say, it says. It also
needs no support: `image` goes straight into <img src>, so a data: URL already
works for anyone who wants one.

Music ships OffMusic.png, resized 1254² → 256² (1.6MB → 108KB) with alpha
intact, sized for 3× DPI at the dock's 32px render. It also drops `icon` — the
artwork is a voxel duck in headphones, not a glyph.

The plugins page showed a generic Puzzle for every plugin; the list and detail
header now show the plugin's own icon when it has one.

Two bugs found while testing.

Dock.tsx imported 26 lucide icons and used 14. The twelve dead ones — Music,
Bitcoin, Receipt, Images, CalendarDays, Contact, Clapperboard, Mail, Network,
ArrowDownUp, FileText, FolderKanban, MonitorSmartphone — were residue from when
every feature had a hardcoded tile. Deleted.

And uninstalling a plugin left its icon URL answering 500, not 404. server.tsx
globs ./public at BOOT into one exact route per file, each holding a Bun.file
handle, spread into the route table AHEAD of the /plugins/* wildcard. So an
icon present at boot got an exact route that outlived the file, returning
ENOENT on every dock render with the error logged each time — exactly what the
wildcard's own comment says it exists to prevent. The comment covered the ADD
case; this is its mirror. `plugins/` is now excluded from the boot glob, so the
wildcard owns that prefix alone. Verified: 200 installed, 404 uninstalled, 200
reinstalled.

[open] A plugin's icon cannot be seen BEFORE installing it, which is the one
place an app store most wants to — assets are published at install by design,
and an authenticated icon route is no use to an <img>.
2026-08-15 15:10:17 +00:00
pastilhas 0a55964db5 the player moves to the plugin, and src/ has no music code left
officerdev/src/MusicPlayer/ → plugins/music/web/. Engine, state, bar,
favourites, lyrics toggle and the library vocabulary — ten files. The barrel
stops exporting a player it no longer has, and DashboardLayout stops rendering
one.

The reasoning that kept it was removed rather than refuted. It stayed because
the dashboard widget imported useMusicPlayer from officerdev and the platform
cannot import from a plugin, so the state had to stay whatever was decided
about the UI. The owner moved the widget into the plugin in the previous
commit, and the constraint went with it: the whole remaining dependency became
one line, DashboardLayout.tsx:66.

MusicPlayerHost is mounted inside the MusicDetail panel. That reads odd until
you notice it already returned null on /music — the mini bar is the transport
there, and the host existed purely to own the GaplessEngine. In the panel it
does exactly that, and the bar code stays intact for whenever there is a slot.

[phase 2] Leaving /music unmounts the host and playback stops. Deferred on the
owner's call; the bar was "navigating away must not break the application", and
that holds: seekPlayer is optional-chained so a call with no host registered is
a no-op, registerPlayerSeek clears only its own registration, the host's
cleanup destroys the engine and nulls its ref, and the queue is global state so
returning to /music remounts and reloads. Solving it properly needs either a
shell slot a plugin can contribute to — which reopens "there is no way to
export a component" — or the engine hoisted to module scope, which keeps the
rule and loses only the off-route controls.

Also: the parked widget now imports the player as a sibling rather than through
officerdev, and shared.ts stopped being a re-export shim now that the real file
is in the plugin.

Verified: tsgo clean, 797 tests / 787 pass / same 7. Server restarts, mounts
/example /music /offscale, / and /music both 200, and the player is in the
built bundle (music.volume, music:lyrics, now-playing?device=web all present —
GaplessEngine is a class name and the production build is minified, so grepping
for it proves nothing).

Not verified by me: what it looks like in a browser. That needs your eyes.
2026-08-15 14:42:13 +00:00
pastilhas de3340398c music becomes a plugin, and the player stays behind
The whole of music moves to plugins/music/: the sidecar (index, indexer,
stream-audio, nightly-reindex), the four Postgres tables and their queries,
the /music workspace panels, MUSIC_API.md and the reindex CLI. The platform
keeps no music routes, no music capability entry, no music screen and no
music schema.

Three things stayed, each on purpose.

cliamp and the widget were out of scope by the owner's decision. The plugin's
sidecar still serves the two cliamp sockets, so it imports cliamp-ws.ts and
pulse-audio.ts from @@/sidecar/music/ — the files stay where they were.

The player did not move, and that was the open judgement call. Deciding it
took one fact: the dashboard widget imports useMusicPlayer and PlayerTrack
from officerdev, and the platform cannot import from a plugin. So the player
STATE stays whatever is decided about the UI around it, and two copies would
mean two audio engines. Given that, the engine and the bar stayed with the
state rather than being split from the thing they drive. Moving them would
also have needed a shell slot rendering a plugin-provided component on every
route — the one escape hatch this system deleted on purpose. MusicPlayerHost
gates on can('music'), which is now the plugin's permission, so the seam
switches itself off with the plugin.

api/music/router.ts stays too: api/cliamp/relay.ts imports getMusicServerWsUrl
from it. The plugin's api/router.ts re-exports that proxy rather than building
a second one — two subscribers to the one-shot music:server port announcement
would work today and 503 on the first reconnect where only one was listening.

Two bugs found on the way, neither visible from reading.

The app-store catalogue still listed music. Availability is derived from
sidecar_installs and a PLUGIN never gets a row there, so `music` would have
been permanently unavailable — which puts /music into deniedRoutes and blanks
the screen on a server where the plugin was installed and healthy. Exactly
the headscale bug documented six lines above it in the same file, and it would
have fired on the first install. Entry removed.

[test] root was "./src", so moving lyrics.test.ts into plugins/ stopped it
running and said nothing — the count fell by nine and the suite still read
green. Root is now the repo. Positional filters cannot fix this: `bun test
plugins` matches under root and finds src/servers/plugins/ instead.

registry.test.ts tested the `personal` mechanism THROUGH the music capability.
Re-anchored on a fixture rather than on another entry, because borrowing a
feature only moves the problem to the next extraction — and three of those
four tests had been passing for the wrong reason since music's api was
commented out on 2026-08-13, when everything started resolving to "refused
because nothing is claimed". The cliamp sockets being claimed by nothing is
now pinned by a test instead of being rediscovered.

music's `personal` paths ride across on readOnlyWrites, the one field a
manifest has. isRequestAllowedAtLevel concatenates the two lists, so a read
grant permits exactly the four paths it permitted yesterday, and no field was
added to the manifest to design a per-user model that is not this work.

bunx tsgo clean. 772 tests, 762 pass, 7 fail — all seven pre-existing and
unrelated (cliamp, pty, and five capability tests that other switched-off
plugins break). Baseline was 757/10; the three that went green are the ones
re-anchored above.

Not yet verified on the live server — that is next.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 e13128846b offscale is a plugin
headscale leaves the platform. 45 files move to plugins/offscale/ and the
platform stops knowing it exists.

  api/router.ts   the thin auth-gated proxy, now at /api/offscale
  sidecar/        18 files, the whole headscale contract and its admin keys
  db/             schema + queries, offscale_servers
  web/            26 files as panels and a layout — no screen, per the rule

removed from the platform: the hono mount, the `headscale` capability, the
App.tsx route pair, the screen and its barrel, the AppRegistry spread, the
officerdev re-exports, the dock tile, the page-title rule, and both database
barrels. tsgo is clean and nothing references it.

the imports tell the story of what the plugin↔host API actually is. the sidecar
takes @@/sidecar/protocol, @@/sidecar/connect, @@/data-path and
@@/officer-url.mjs; the queries take officerdb/db and officerdb/crypto; the
schema takes officerdb/auth/schema for the one reference a plugin may make; the
web half takes useClient, copyToClipboard, WorkspaceView and TerminalView from
the officerdev barrel. all of it resolves because a plugin lives inside the repo
— no publishing, no version negotiation.

AND IT FOUND A REAL BUG IN THE INSTALLER. createSidecarProxy learns its port
from a one-shot `<name>:server` event and subscribes when the plugin's router is
first imported — at mount. install started the sidecar BEFORE mounting, so the
announcement fired into a void: process online, routes mounted, every request
answering `503 sidecar not available` until something forced a reconnect. it
would have hit every plugin with an http sidecar. `example` never caught it
because it has no listener to announce.

install and enable now mount before starting; disable still unmounts before
stopping. neither direction leaves a mounted route in front of a sidecar that
cannot be reached.

verified live: /api/offscale/_officer/servers answers {"servers":[]}, /offscale
and /offscale/nodes serve, the old /api/headscale is 404, the offscale
capability is registered from the manifest, and officer-offscale is online.

757 pass, same 10 pre-existing failures.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 543e88a9a6 every plugin route renders a workspace, and it is not a rule you can forget
an exclusionary rule, made structural. a plugin does not render a screen: it
contributes panels and says how they are arranged, and the shell renders
WorkspaceView around them.

    web/panels.ts   appRegistryMetas — at least one panel
    web/layout.ts   defaultLayout — how they are arranged

both required the moment web/ exists, and missing either is refused at discovery
by name and with the reason. tested:

    probeplug: has a web/ directory but is missing web/layout.ts.
    Every plugin route renders a Workspace: contribute panels and a layout,
    not a screen.

there is deliberately no way to export a component. one that could would be free
to render a bare div, a full-page form, or its own navigation, and the platform
would become a shell hosting strangers' layouts rather than one application.
non-compliance is not so much refused as unrepresentable — there is nowhere to
put a screen.

the shell registers <prefix> and <prefix>/:section, exactly as the core screens
do, so a plugin's sections stay addressable and cmd-clickable, and panels read
useParams independently rather than passing state between themselves.
appTypes.allowed is pinned to that plugin's own keys, so a persisted layout
naming something else falls back instead of rendering another plugin's panel
inside this screen.

the example plugin is rebuilt to model it — two panels, a layout, one of them
calling its own /api/example/ping through useClient — because the reference
implementation is what everyone copies.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 7b4137ccca a plugin's frontend, generated and rebuilt without a restart
the last piece. installing a plugin now brings its UI with it.

a bundler cannot follow import(runtimeString), so which plugins have a frontend
cannot be answered from the database at render time — it has to be written into
source first. Plugins.gen.tsx is that file: concrete imports, generated from
what is installed, gitignored because it describes THIS machine.

App.tsx keeps its core routes and gains one map. the wildcard hands the whole
subtree to the plugin's own router, which react-router nests natively.

serving moved to build/ in production. the html import is bundled once when the
module graph loads and can never change after, which is precisely why a plugin's
frontend needed a restart; Bun.build measures ~900ms for a 25MB bundle, so an
install can just rebuild. development keeps the html import, because that is
what gives HMR and bun --watch restarts on every source change anyway.

verified end to end against a running server, no restart at any point: install
regenerated the module, rebuilt the bundle (chunk hash changed), and the
plugin's own markup was in it; /example and /example/deeper both served; disable
took it back out of both the module and the bundle and 404'd the api; enable put
it back.

three things worth recording because they were found rather than reasoned:

the shell output is named after the ENTRYPOINT — index.gen.html, not index.html
— and naming: { entry: '[name].[ext]' } does not change it because [name] is
'index.gen'. found as a 503 on the first boot after the switch.

App.tsx already destructured a `plugins`, from useServerSettings — the DEAD
plugin system that scans a directory which does not exist and always returns [].
it silently shadowed the import. the new one is `installedPlugins` and says why.

seedAppRegistry takes plugin panels as an argument rather than importing them:
officerdev is a dependency of the shell, so importing upward would invert that.

756 pass, same 10 pre-existing failures.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 98c400bf33 a /plugins screen to install, enable, disable and uninstall
the management surface for what the last commit made possible. two panels either
side of a selection that lives in ?selected= and is read by both independently,
so neither can be telling the other something stale — rows are real Links, not
buttons holding the name in a closure.

the detail panel shows what the tree declared (api, schema, sidecar, web),
because "installed and nothing happened" is otherwise a mystery, and it names
what uninstall does NOT do: neither disable nor uninstall deletes anything the
plugin stored, and the screen says so rather than leaving someone to guess
whether a button destroys their data.

a directory whose manifest will not parse is listed with its error rather than
skipped. a malformed plugin that simply does not appear is indistinguishable
from one nobody wrote.

`outdated` is surfaced as an Update button: the version on disk moving after an
install is the normal state on a developer's machine, and it should be visible
rather than inferred.

the four mutations are written out rather than generated in a loop — useMutation
is a hook, and a hook called from inside a helper is a rules-of-hooks violation
even when the call order happens to be stable. caught before it shipped.

verified against a running server: the spa builds (19.8 MB bundle containing the
new screen), / serves 200, /api/plugins answers authenticated and 401s without a
token. full suite 719 pass, same 10 pre-existing failures. live server and
plugin_installs left untouched.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 eb1fd8c31a headscale is core, so stop offering to install it
Reported as: the routes are unreachable and there is no dock tile, on a server where
officer-headscale is up and healthy. Both symptoms, one cause.

Availability is derived ONLY from the sidecar_installs table — `usable` is the rows
with status='installed' AND enabled, and every capability mapped to a sidecar outside
that set is added to `unavailable`. A CORE sidecar never gets a row there, because
core processes are started by pm2 from the generated ecosystem file and never go
through the app store. So `headscale` and `vpn` were permanently unavailable, which
withheld the dock manifest AND put /headscale into deniedRoutes for the route guard.

The design already knew. catalogue.test.ts has a test called "does not offer to
install the baseline", and it has been FAILING since headscale was promoted:

  Expected to not contain: "officer-headscale"

docs/secret-store.md predicted it in as many words — "moving headscale into the light
profile also removes it from the app store automatically: catalogue.test.ts asserts
the catalogue equals full − light, so the test fails until the entry is deleted". The
entry was never deleted, and the failing test was never read.

So: entry removed, and the tile moved to CORE_DOCK_ITEMS, where the other things that
are always present live. DashboardLayout filters every tile through canVisit(), so a
member still never sees it — the capability is kind: 'admin'.

The entry's existingFields (URL + API key) are not lost. Servers are added from the
Servers view inside the app — ServersView.tsx, ServerForm.tsx, useHeadscaleServers.ts
— which is where they were really configured; the app-store form was a second place to
type the same two values.

Verified: catalogue.test.ts 19 pass/1 fail → 20 pass/0 fail, tsgo clean.

PRE-EXISTING, not touched: 10 other tests fail on master, 8 of them in

stashing it and re-running. Worth a look but not this change's business.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 b6feca8350 owner can reset a member's platform password
The gap at the other end of create-user.ts: the owner could set a password once, at
creation, and never again. Losing it meant a hand-written UPDATE with an argon2
hash — the same "edit Postgres by hand" hole that creating accounts used to have.

POST /api/users/:id/password, owner-gated, with a button on the row.

GENERATED, not typed. The failure this exists for is "I created the account and
forgot to copy the password down", and an owner typing a replacement can lose it the
same way on the second go. Shown once in a dialog built to be copied — a dialog and
not a toast, because a toast that times out while somebody finds a pen loses the one
thing they came for.

The generator satisfies validatePassword BY CONSTRUCTION rather than by luck: one
character drawn from each of the four required classes, the rest from the union,
then Fisher-Yates shuffled so the first four positions are not always
lower/upper/digit/special. Rejection sampling throughout — `% n` on a byte biases
the early characters. Then it runs validatePassword on its own output, so if the
rules ever gain a requirement the alphabets do not cover it throws at the one call
site instead of minting passwords the login form rejects. Measured: 20,000
generations, all four classes present every time.

l, I, 1, O and 0 are absent from the alphabets. This gets read off a screen and
typed somewhere else.

Signs them out everywhere, as asked: passwordChangedAt = now, and userMiddleware
already refuses any token whose iat predates it. That overwrites the null
create-user leaves to mean "the owner chose this, not them" — checked, nothing reads
that column except the token check.

The Linux account is deliberately untouched, and the dialog says so. Members have no
Linux password and never had one: ensureOsUser runs useradd with no -p, so it is
created locked. Their terminal goes through setpriv, which does not authenticate;
their SSH is the key the owner pasted; `su - <member>` as root does not ask. And
machine-setup sets PasswordAuthentication no — verified on this host — so one could
not be used to log in even if it existed. Setting one would be a new way in, not a
repair.

The owner is excluded: they have change-password, which asks for the current one,
and resetting themselves here would end the session doing it.

Verified: transpiles, all lucide icons exist, 20k generator runs. tsgo next.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 cd209483e3 fix the clipboard over http, and audit the rest
navigator.clipboard is secure-context only, like crypto.randomUUID before it —
over plain http on a tailnet address the object does not exist. Twenty call
sites across eighteen files, in three states that all looked fine in review:
bare calls that threw and killed the handler, optional-chained calls that
silently did nothing, and one carrying the comment "Officer is always behind
HTTPS", which it is not.

The optional-chained ones are the worst of the three: a copy button that reports
success and copies nothing is indistinguishable from a working one until someone
pastes.

helpers/clipboard.ts falls back to document.execCommand('copy') over an
off-screen textarea — deprecated, and it works on any origin because it predates
the secure-context rule. Off-screen rather than hidden, because display:none and
visibility:hidden elements cannot be selected and the copy fails silently.

Reading the clipboard has no equivalent: execCommand('paste') was never permitted
from script. The file browser's paste-a-file path now checks canReadClipboard()
and explains itself instead of throwing.

docs/http-secure-context-audit.md is the full sweep the owner asked for: what was
fixed, what cannot be, and what was checked and found clear. crypto.subtle is
used nowhere in the frontend, which was the one worth confirming since it has no
cheap fallback. Notification's six matches are type names, not the API.
geolocation and navigator.share are already guarded. getUserMedia is in four
files and is being removed — but QrTransfer uses it for the CAMERA, not a
microphone, so "remove audio" does not cover it.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 74b4c7908a fix the crash over http: crypto.randomUUID is secure-context only
Chat took the whole page down at the end of every turn with
`TypeError: crypto.randomUUID is not a function`.

`crypto.randomUUID()` is SECURE-CONTEXT ONLY — over plain http on anything that
is not localhost it is not defined at all. Officer is reached at
http://officer-dev:9000, which is neither, so all eighteen call sites in the
frontend were throwing. The stack shows why it was fatal rather than merely
broken: it was called inside a `useState` initialiser, so the throw happened
during render and unmounted the tree. The assistant message that has no id yet
is created at the end of a turn, which is exactly when it fired.

No TLS needed. `crypto.getRandomValues()` carries no such restriction — it is on
`Crypto`, not `SubtleCrypto`, and works in an insecure context. helpers/random-id
uses randomUUID when it exists and otherwise assembles a v4 from the same CSPRNG:
same 122 bits, same version and variant bits. Verified both paths produce a UUID
matching the v4 pattern, including with randomUUID deleted.

`crypto.subtle` is not used anywhere in the frontend, so randomUUID was the whole
of the problem. Audio recording is a different matter — getUserMedia genuinely
requires a secure context and cannot be polyfilled.

Nine files, eighteen call sites. The vendored hls.mjs is left alone.

Two of my own mistakes on the way, both caught by parsing rather than by reading:
the rewrite added an import of the helper TO the helper, and inserted another one
inside a multi-line import block — the same trap as the officerdb move earlier
tonight.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 595dd082a7 delete Task Logs
A complete read path over a table nothing could write to. task-logger.ts exported
createTaskLog, appendToLog and finalizeLog, and none of the three was called
anywhere in the tree — so `task_logs` could never gain a row, and the screen was
permanently empty for everyone.

The read half was fully wired: mounted router, capability claim, dock icon, two
routes and a page-title rule. That is why it looked alive.

Gone, in the order it was reached:

  Screens/Dashboard/TaskLogs/       the screen
  App.tsx                           /task-logs and /task-logs/:id
  Dashboard/index.tsx               the export
  Layout/Dock.tsx                   the 'Logs' icon, and ScrollText with it
  state/usePageTitle.ts             the title rule
  api/task-logs/task-logs.ts        the router, and its mount in hono.ts
  api/task-logger.ts                101 lines of orphaned writer
  officer_db/src/operations/        the directory
  officer_db/src/schema.ts          the export line
  officer_db/src/types.ts           TaskLogSelect / TaskLogInsert

capabilities/registry.ts loses '/task-logs' from the `tasks` capability's `api`
AND `routes`. The api half is not optional: assertCapabilityTotality check 2
refuses to boot on a capability claiming a prefix nothing mounts, so unmounting
the router while leaving the claim would have stopped the server starting.

db:push now creates 21 tables, down from 43 at the start of the evening.

officer_db/src/operations was one of the two lopsided directories the
schema/queries merge exposed. integrations/ is the remaining one, and it is
legitimate — it spans server and user-data.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 040ea41dbc per-user linux accounts are not optional any more
OFFICER_OS_USERS is gone. The platform behaves as it always would have with the
flag on, and there is nothing to enable.

Six conditionals, five of which were dead weight — provisionOsAccount,
deprovisionOsAccount and the create/delete paths each opened with an early
"not enabled on this server" return, and the API told the frontend whether to
render the Linux controls at all. Those go, along with the 'disabled'
DeprovisionResult stage, which nothing can produce now.

The sixth is the one with teeth. assertSecretsClosed opened with
`if (!OS_USERS_ENABLED) return`, described in its own comment as "a no-op when
the feature is off, so an existing install is unaffected until the owner opts
in". It is now unconditional: the server refuses to boot while any .env in the
project root is group- or world-readable. A member's shell reading .env and
printing JWT_SECRET was confirmed exploitable when this check was written, and a
prerequisite that only holds when somebody remembers to set a variable is not a
prerequisite.

Nothing to remove on the environment side — the flag was never in .env.example
or in the setup script.

Not typechecked: node_modules is empty in this tree and installs are frozen, so
tsgo could not run. All six files parse under `bun build --no-bundle`, and the
changes are deletions of dead branches plus one removed early return. Formatted
with prettier 3.9.6 via bunx rather than the pinned resolution, for the same
reason; its one unrelated reformat was reverted by hand.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 f0af7237db terminal, chat and files are granted by default; permissions screen simplified
DEFAULTS. Every role now starts with the three confined capabilities at write, seeded in
bootstrap. These are what the platform is FOR — an account that signs in and reaches none of
them is not restricted, it is useless, and making the owner grant them by hand first is a
step with no decision in it.

Seeded as real rows rather than implied by absence, which keeps the table's one rule intact:
a missing row means no access, always, with no exception to remember. Revoking one therefore
works like revoking anything else — the row goes and nothing puts it back. Done in bootstrap
because that happens exactly once per install, so seeding can never fight a later revocation.
Non-fatal: an owner whose roles hold nothing is a one-click fix, while failing bootstrap over
it leaves a platform with no account at all.

`app` capabilities are deliberately not defaulted — they reach data the owner may not intend
to share, and each needs a sidecar before it means anything.

SCREEN. Role selection is tabs rather than a dropdown: three roles are the axis you move
along, and a select hid two of them behind a click while giving no sense of which one you are
editing. Row descriptions are gone — with three rows called Terminal, Chat and Files they
explained nothing — and the "needs a Linux account" warning went with them, since every
account now gets one at creation, so it was noise about a state that no longer occurs on its
own. `needsOsAccount` is removed from the API too, not just hidden.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 eda004a46d a naked platform does not describe what it does not have
Reversing my own call from an hour ago. I built the denied-route screen to EXPLAIN the
absence — "Music is not installed", with a link to the app store — and argued a redirect
erases what you asked for. The owner's correction is the better principle: a server should
not know about a sidecar it does not have. Explaining Music is the app describing a feature
that, as far as this install is concerned, does not exist, and it leaks the whole catalogue
of what could be installed to any member who types a URL.

So a denied path is now indistinguishable from an unknown one: redirect home, the same
answer App.tsx's path="*" already gave. One behaviour for a member without a grant, an
owner without the sidecar, and a typo. Nothing disclosed.

The Permissions screen loses both explanatory blocks for the same reason. One listed every
capability whose sidecar is absent — a catalogue of uninstallable features presented as a
permissions decision. The other described chat, tasks, the desktop and the wallet as
"not grantable" to an owner who may have none of them installed. `notInstalled` is gone
from the API too, not just hidden in the UI. What is on that screen is what this server can
actually do.

Still short of what the owner described, and worth naming rather than implying otherwise:
routes are DECLARED in App.tsx for every screen and this hides the ones that should not
resolve. The end state is routes REGISTERED from the manifests of installed sidecars, so an
uninstalled feature has no route to hide. The manifests already exist and the dock is
already built from them; the router is not, yet.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 b4f88ec161 routes refuse at the route, and a new home is empty
Three things, from a member sitting on /music with no music capability on a server with
no music sidecar: an empty library, and 403s in the console.

PERMISSIONS AT THE ROUTE. `canVisit` filtered the dock and nothing else, so the tile was
hidden and the route was wide open — typing the path, following an old link or restoring
a tab rendered the screen anyway. RouteGate now wraps every screen in one place, inside
the error boundary.

It does not redirect. Sending someone to `/` erases what they asked for and reads as a
bug: they clicked Music and landed on Home. It says why instead, and the URL stays put so
a reload after installing the thing just works.

And it says which of the two reasons applies, because they need different screens and send
the reader to different places. `not-installed` is a fact about the SERVER — the owner gets
a link to the app store. `not-granted` is a fact about the ACCOUNT, and only the owner can
change it. Presenting either as the other sends you looking in the wrong place.

ROUTES FOLLOW THE SIDECAR. Free, once the above exists: `deniedRoutes` already covers
"held but its sidecar is not installed", so an uninstalled feature has no tile AND no
screen. The dock, the Permissions list and the routes now agree because they read one
answer.

NO MORE SEEDING. Downloads/Documents/Music/Videos/Pictures are gone from both places that
made them — the member's provisioning and, older and worse, `/ls`, which created folders in
somebody's home as a side effect of LOOKING at it. A listing that invents its own contents
is a listing you cannot trust, and the platform has no standing to choose a person's folder
layout. A new home is empty.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 d3bed0add9 the file browser can actually read a member's home, and plans is gone
"This folder is empty" was a lie. The five seeded directories were sitting there and the
platform's readdir raised EACCES: a member's home is 700 and owned by them, which is
correct for a shell and locks out the file browser, which runs inside the platform
process. /ls caught the error and returned an empty listing, so a refusal looked exactly
like data.

Two doors, two boundaries, and that is the point rather than a compromise. The terminal
and the agent RUN AS the member and the kernel is the boundary there. The file browser
acts on the member's behalf from inside the platform, which already applies its own
containment and is the owner's process on the owner's machine — it can read anything via
sudo regardless. Giving it access describes who is doing the work.

Done with named POSIX ACLs, because it has to hold in BOTH directions: a file the
platform writes must be editable by the member and vice versa. Mode bits cannot say that
— whichever party is neither owner nor group lands in "other", and widening "other"
opens the home to every account on the box. A shared group fails the same way, since both
parties would have to be in it and that puts every member in a group that can read every
other member's home. Two named entries plus `d:` defaults grant exactly two users and are
inherited by whatever either side creates, whatever their umask.

Verified: platform lists the home, member edits a platform-written file, platform edits a
member-written file, and a SECOND member is refused on both ls and cat.

/ls now distinguishes EACCES from a missing directory. An empty result is data and must
never be how a refusal looks.

acl joins the core packages in setup.sh — the alternative is an account that provisions
and then cannot list its own home.

Also: the file browser's own useTasks/useAgents fired /tasks, /agents and both category
endpoints on every render, which is where the last four 403s came from — they are the
context menu's Run Task and agent submenus, execution-only. Gated.

And plans is deleted: router, screen, routes, dock tile, hook, page title and its
capability. It read markdown from <repo>/plans, which does not exist. Fresh-install
Permissions is now Files alone, with Terminal to come.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 e393d0f5c2 a member's screens render, and the shell stops asking for things it cannot have
Three findings from granting Files to a role and signing in as the member.

THE BLANK SCREEN. WorkspaceView returns null until workspace.isLoaded, and isLoaded
was the success flag of GET /api/dashboards — which the `dashboards` capability gated.
So a member with files granted got a completely blank Files screen and no request to
/api/file-browser at all: the panel never mounted. Terminal, Chat and every other
workspace screen were the same.

/api/dashboards is not a feature. It is the per-user key-value store where every
screen keeps its layout, entirely `personal`, every row keyed to the caller. Gating it
does not restrict an account, it breaks it — which is the definition of `core` at the
top of the registry. Moved there.

And the failure mode was wrong independently: `isLoaded` now covers a failed fetch as
well as a successful one, with `loadFailed` for the difference, so a screen that cannot
remember its layout still renders with defaults instead of showing nothing and
explaining nothing.

THE STRAY REQUESTS. Six shell-level queries gated on isAuthenticated but not on
capability, so a member's first paint fired 403s at /server-settings/settings,
/jobs/counts (every three seconds, forever), /chat/models, /plans, /music/now-playing
and the chat access policy. Each now checks the capability it needs. JobsIndicator and
RescanButton also render nothing without `tasks` and `items` — the header was offering
two links to a screen the member cannot open and a button that would 403.

THE PERMISSIONS SCREEN. It listed all fourteen app capabilities on a server where none
of their sidecars are installed. Offering to grant Photos on a machine with no Immich
is not a permission decision. It now shows only what is installed, lists the rest as
"nothing installed for these yet" so their absence reads as a fact rather than a bug,
and marks confined rows as needing a Linux account. Fails open on a degraded read.

Found while checking that: the headscale catalogue entry claimed only the `headscale`
capability, but the same sidecar also serves `vpn` — a member enrolling their own
device — so vpn was never subtracted. Hence `alsoServes`.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 2c9d4e55aa retry a linux account in place instead of deleting the person
POST /users/:id/provision-linux, and a terminal button on each user row. One
operation covering three needs that were all previously answered by "delete the
account and make it again":

  backfill  an account created before the feature existed, or while the host was not
            set up for it
  retry     the first attempt failed for something since fixed — the traversable
            ancestor chmod being the one everybody hits once
  re-key    replace authorized_keys with a new public key

Deleting to redo a retryable side effect throws away the password, the dashboards and
everything else keyed to the row.

The provisioning block moves out of create-user into provisionOsAccount, shared by
both entry points for the same reason app-store/members.ts is shaped that way: two
moments, one piece of work.

Found by testing the retry rather than the create: provisionUserDirs re-chmods every
directory including home, and home belongs to the MEMBER after the first successful
run — chmod requires ownership, so it threw EPERM and took every retry down before it
started. Those chmods are now a default for directories being created, not an
assertion about ones that already exist; os-user.ts sets the home's mode through sudo
and is the authority for it.

The route answers 200 with the error in the body, because the interesting cases are
partial: "the account exists and is confined but the keys failed" is not nothing
having happened, and the row shows both halves.

Verified end to end: blocked ancestor reports the chmod and leaves osUser null, the
retry after that chmod succeeds and records the row, and a re-key replaces
authorized_keys without rotating the outbound key.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 0fb9a29e64 ssh for a member's linux account, both directions
Inbound and outbound are two keys doing two jobs, and treating them as
alternatives breaks the goal:

  inbound   ~/.ssh/authorized_keys, from an optional public key the owner pastes
            on the create form. Their private half stays on their laptop.
  outbound  ~/.ssh/id_ed25519, generated in their home, never leaves the machine.

"They pasted a key, so skip generating one" is the obvious simplification. Agent
forwarding covers a human in an interactive session, but a platform-spawned agent
has no agent socket to borrow — so an edge checkout it is asked to commit and push
needs a key that lives on the box. The inbound key is therefore optional and the
outbound one is not.

No linux password, ever: useradd sets none, which blocks password login and does
not block key auth. So "real user, reachable over SSH, no password anywhere" is
the resting state, and the platform password stays the platform's business.

Validation is about line count, not key shape. Every line of authorized_keys is a
credential, so a pasted value with a newline would install a SECOND key silently.
Multi-line refused, a private key refused by name, an options prefix refused.

Every write goes through sudo install: the home is 700 and the member's, so the
service user cannot even create .ssh. install sets content, owner and mode in one
step, and content travels as a temp path so nothing quotes a form value into a
shell. ssh-keygen runs AS the member so the private key is never briefly root's.

known_hosts is not seeded — StrictHostKeyChecking accept-new instead. The Gitea
SSH endpoint is not knowable at create time, and the default setting makes a first
connection prompt, which in a non-interactive agent turn is a hang rather than an
error. accept-new still refuses a changed host key.

The generated public key is stored on the row and shown twice: on the after-create
panel and behind a key button on the user's row. It has an errand attached that
nothing else will remind anyone about — it must be added to their Gitea account.

Verified with a real useradd: .ssh 700 and id_ed25519 600 both owned by the member
and usable by them, authorized_keys byte-identical to the paste, no key rotation on
a second run, and a multi-line paste refused with authorized_keys untouched.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 69a31051ac the owner can create accounts
POST /api/users plus an Add-account form in Settings > User management. Until now
createUser had one call site — bootstrap, gated on an empty user table — so every
non-owner account anywhere had been inserted into Postgres by hand.

Created accounts are Active. The column defaults to Unverified and signin refuses
anything else with a bare UNAUTHORIZED, which is exactly what made the hand-INSERT
route look like a wrong password.

Also closes a hole found while reading the write path: a second Super Admin was
storable. The CHECK constraint pins user 1's role but cannot see other rows, and
getOwnerUser() was LIMIT 1 with no ORDER BY, so two holders would have made "who owns
this server" a question the query plan answered — and that answer feeds the agent
sidecar's identity, vault access and origin scoping. Both write paths now refuse the
role and getOwnerUser() orders by id.

USER_DIRS and provisionUserDirs move into data-path.ts so the create handler and
scripts/provision-user-dirs.ts cannot disagree about what an account's skeleton is.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 b7184283e0 app store: a screen, so this can be clicked instead of curled
/app-store, built to the platform's own conventions: a locked WorkspaceView with two panels, the
selection in `?selected=` rather than a channel, and rows that are real links so cmd-click and a pasted
URL both work.

`?selected=` and not a /app-store/:id detail route, per docs/navigation-audit.md: this is a master list
with a live preview, and linking rows to a detail route would make the detail the whole page and destroy
the side-by-side. Both panels read the URL independently — the list and the detail cannot disagree if
neither is telling the other anything.

The install form is generated from the catalogue's fields rather than written per service, which is what
lets a sidecar shipping from its own repository present a form nobody here wrote. `existing` is first in
`modes` by catalogue rule, so the default selection is "I already have one" — the answer that avoids
starting a second copy of something already running.

States are distinguished rather than flattened. Blocked is amber and titled "Needs you", not an error:
everything worked and it is waiting for a token only a person can mint. Installed-and-enabled but with
a dead process shows a warning rather than a tick that lies. And the disable/uninstall copy says plainly
that data, configuration and tables are kept either way, because that is the question anyone hesitates
over before clicking.

The dock tile is CORE, not plugin-derived: the store is how every other feature arrives, so it must
never be one of the things that disappears.

Verified through the API the screen uses — 14 items, email reporting installed/enabled with its process
online, and /app-store present in the capability routes so the tile renders. NOT verified in a browser:
no page has been opened, so the rendering itself is reasoned rather than seen.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 82e9fdacc2 dock: the shell keeps its own items, sidecars contribute theirs
ALL_DOCK_ITEMS was a hardcoded list of everything, so a fresh machine offered Photos, Jellyfin,
Transmission and the rest — each leading to a screen reporting itself unavailable — and adding a sidecar
meant editing the shell. Neither survives sidecars shipping from their own repositories.

Split in two. CORE_DOCK_ITEMS is the baseline that exists on every install: chat, files, terminal, the
app's own screens, and Gitea, which is in the light profile because it fronts a remote instance.
Everything else is derived from installed sidecars' UI manifests, delivered with /capabilities.

Sent with the capability answer rather than fetched separately so the dock has ONE source. Two requests
means two moments, and a dock rendered between them shows a tile for something uninstalled or nothing
for something installed. Filtered by capability server-side too: a member is not handed the manifest of
a feature they cannot use, because "hidden in the client" is the kind of privacy that lasts until
someone opens the network tab.

Verified live. The owner — who bypasses every permission check — does not bypass this: /photos is absent
from routes and present in deniedRoutes because Photos is not installed. Flipping a row's `enabled`
makes its tile leave and return with no process touched.

Two things fell out. A manifest can declare extraTiles, because CalDAV is one sidecar presenting as
Calendar AND Contacts, and collapsing them to keep the model tidy would make the app worse. And
DEFAULT_DOCK_PATHS no longer pins /music: useDock drops a path with nothing behind it, so the default
dock came up a tile short on any machine where Music was never installed — a default that references an
optional feature is how an app looks subtly wrong on a fresh install for no stated reason.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 52bac070ce let renaming a chat take the tab name back
`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.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 8f2d80573a actually give existing users the live panel
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.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 c4241c23da show what the agent is actually running, above the history
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.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 6a74b3d198 name a chat from its own pane, and name the page after it
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.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 417860b892 let a maximized panel take the whole window, header included
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.

pastilhasandClaude Opus 5 33492262b5 put the email folder in the query string
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.
