This is 7726c9f, reverted a few hours ago as collateral with the tabs-and-panes work. It was never
a panes feature — it is the fix for a bug that predates them, and tonight it was reproduced by hand.
The symptom: on https://macbook.pastilhas.dev a chat connects, works briefly, and is dead after a
refresh, never coming back. On http://localhost:9010 the same build is fine.
The cause is ordering. A refresh means socket B attaches before socket A's close is delivered, and
`detachWs(sessionId)` took no socket argument — it nulled the session's single `ws` field, so the
dying socket silenced the live one that had already replaced it. Nothing re-attaches afterwards,
which is why it never came back. Over loopback the close usually lands first and it survives; via
NPM on alpha and back to this host the extra latency makes the late close the ordinary case. That
is the whole of the localhost/domain asymmetry.
`sockets: Set` plus `detachWs(sessionId, ws)` removes only the socket that actually closed, and
delivery fans out to whatever is still attached. `hasSockets` then gates the idle GC, which used to
arm on ANY close — a second pane closing could collect a conversation out from under the first.
Ruled out on the way, so none of it is re-investigated: the reverse proxy relays upgrades correctly
(a clean 101 through openresty, and a full turn streamed end to end over wss:// with deltas and a
cost line); origin validation is off (ALLOW_ANY_ORIGIN defaults true and is unset here) and never
runs on the upgrade, which is a literal Bun route and never reaches Hono; authenticated HTTP is 200
through both doors; the passkeys table is empty, so no origin-bound credential is involved; and the
token-resolution fix 52d5678 — which I nearly re-landed first — was the WRONG diagnosis, because
signin writes localStorage.BEARER_TOKEN, exactly where the socket url reads. That one is still
worth having for embedded and ?officerToken= hosts, but it was never this.
Not verified: a browser refresh against the domain, which is Andre's to confirm — it is the only
step I cannot drive from here. Typecheck clean.

Reverts 66a41d0 and bc13450. Both were justified by reasoning that measurement then contradicted:
the chat socket was never the fault. What actually fixed chat was tearing down and restarting the
whole pm2 ecosystem, so the failure lived in process state, not in this hook.
Leaves the tree identical to 31ffe08 — the pre-multi-server baseline Andre asked for — apart from
docs/agent-git-identity.md.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Follow-up to bc13450, found by actually driving a browser instead of reasoning about one. The
deferred close keeps a remount's socket alive mid-handshake, but `connect` only treated OPEN as
"already ours" — so the re-run built a second socket, overwrote socketRef, and left the first open
forever with its `open` handler bailing on the mismatch. CONNECTING now counts too.
What the browser actually says, headless Chrome against this server, fresh load of /chat/new:
#1 NEW wss://…/api/chat/ws?token=…
#2 NEW wss://…/api/chat/ws?token=…
#1 OPEN
#2 OPEN (neither ever closes, 12s)
header: green dot, no "Disconnected"
So the served code CONNECTS on a fresh load and the Disconnected report could not be reproduced
here — which points the remaining report at the client's cached bundle rather than at this code. The
chunk hash moved e3jsfax5 -> 81jec45w across these edits, so the rebuild is reaching the wire.
Two sockets per load survive this fix and are NOT what it addresses: they come from two separate
`useChat` instances mounting on that route, each with its own refs, so no per-instance guard can see
the other. Left alone deliberately — both connect, and one conversation opening two agent sockets
wants understanding before a fix.
Also retired here: my claim that StrictMode's double-invoke was the trigger. The served bundle has no
dev-only React internals at all (`doubleInvokeEffectsOnFiber`, `runWithFiberInDEV`,
`commitPassiveUnmountEffectsInsideOfDeletedTree`: zero hits), because pm2 runs `bun start` with
NODE_ENV=production.
Typecheck clean. Repro harness is in the session scratchpad, not committed.

Re-applies bcb3d6d, which the tabs/panes revert (0a4ff54) took out as collateral: the fix lived in
useChatWebSocket.ts, so reverting the panes work reverted it too. It was never panes-specific — the
mechanism is React remounting a subtree, which happens on this screen with one conversation just as
it did in a pane.
The cleanup closed the socket while it was still CONNECTING, and the replacement was closed in turn,
so the view churned and sat on Disconnected forever. The close is now deferred a tick and cancelled
if the effect re-runs: a remount reclaims the live socket, a real unmount has nobody to cancel it.
Diagnosed from the browser this time rather than guessed. A raw socket opened by hand from the
console on the same origin, with the same token, reports RAW OPEN and stays open:
new WebSocket(`wss://${location.host}/api/chat/ws?token=${localStorage.getItem('BEARER_TOKEN')}`)
so transport, auth, the tailnet proxy and the server are all fine and the app was closing its own
socket. Two earlier theories are dead and worth naming: the token resolution mismatch (52d5678) does
not apply — the token IS in localStorage.BEARER_TOKEN where the old code looks — and StrictMode's
double-invoke is not the trigger here, since pm2 runs `bun start` with NODE_ENV=production where
React does not double-invoke. Some other remount is.
Not verified in a browser yet: whether this alone clears Disconnected. If it does not, the remaining
suspect is a continuous remount rather than a single one, which a WebSocket-constructor counter in
the console will show as a rising count.
Typecheck clean.

Andre wants to log out and log back in against a single server, so this takes out dc6b623 and my
token-resolution change with it — the latter first, because it was written against
useServerClient, which dc6b623 introduced.
Gone: the connections store, the server chips, the per-server client and the per-server socket
url. `useClient()` is back to one origin, `/api`, and the session it already holds. The chat
socket url is back to what it was:
const token = localStorage.getItem('BEARER_TOKEN');
const wsUrl = `${protocol}//${window.location.host}/api/chat/ws?token=${token}`;
Verified: the staged tree is byte-identical to dc6b623^ across all of src/.
Two things he should know rather than discover.
The old line reads localStorage and nothing else — the same single spelling I widened an hour ago
and have now removed again. If his token is NOT in localStorage, this code fails exactly as
before, and worse: a missing one interpolates as the literal string "null" rather than an empty
value. Reverting cannot fix that class of problem; it restores it.
`officer.connections.v1` stays in his browser's localStorage with alpha's API key in it. Nothing
reads it now, so it is inert, but it is a credential sitting in a store nobody owns any more and
should be cleared by hand.
Typecheck clean. 600 pass, 2 fail — cliamp and pty, unchanged all evening and unrelated.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reported after the revert: the app loads, the old layout is back, history lists — and the socket
never reaches connected.
The two doors disagreed. `createClient` accepts a token from seven places: window.officerBearerToken,
two body datasets, an `?officerToken=` query param, PERTENTO_EDITOR_AUTH_TOKEN, localStorage and
sessionStorage. The chat socket url read exactly one of them, `localStorage.BEARER_TOKEN`, so a
token held anywhere else authenticated every HTTP request and left the WebSocket with a bare
`?token=`.
That failure is silent and reads as a dead server: verified here, an empty token closes with 1002
"Expected 101 status code", and the hook's retry loop repeats it forever. Nothing logs a missing
credential, so the app looks fine in every way except the one that matters.
Resolution is now one exported function, `resolveBearerToken`, used by both. The point is that it
cannot be re-spelled: this bug is the second spelling drifting from the first.
Predates the tabs work and survived reverting it, which is the evidence it was never a panes bug.
Not fixed here, same shape, left alone deliberately: Terminal, Desktop, AudioStreamPlayer, the
pipeline and task runners, JobDetail and EmailList all build socket or fetch urls from
`localStorage.BEARER_TOKEN` directly and will fail identically for the same user.
Typecheck clean. 600 pass, 2 fail — cliamp and pty, unchanged and unrelated. Not verified in a
browser; Andre has the only client that reproduces it.

Andre asked for zero, not another fix on top. Reverts ec4f06a..7726c9f — the ten commits from
"tabs and panes" onward: the tab bar and pane splitting, tab renaming and its page title, the
per-server directory picker, the render-loop fix, pane transcript resolution, the send queue,
the two socket fixes from the other session, the pane-socket notes, and my own socket-set change
from tonight. He is rebuilding from here.
Deliberately KEPT: dc6b623, "talk to two officers at once from one browser". That was a separate
ask that predates the tabs one, and the multi-server client, the server chips and the connections
store stand on their own without panes. Reverting it too is one more command if that was the
intent.
Collateral, worth naming: cb7ab55 carried an unrelated MusicPlayerHost change alongside its
socket instrumentation, so that came out with it.
Reverts, not a reset — every one of these is pushed and a second session is live in this repo.
Typecheck clean. 600 pass, 2 fail — cliamp path-escape and the pty transport test, both failing
identically before this and unrelated to chat.
What is NOT explained by this revert: the browser symptoms tonight. The server was verified good
throughout — two real turns streamed back through the public URL on both models, and the full
2,281-message history came through nginx intact. Whatever the client fault is, it is still
unfound, and the pre-tabs code is where it now has to be looked for.

Reported from two devices at once: typing on the iPad, reading the reply on the Mac. Sending
from the Mac produced nothing there. Both halves are one field.
A session held `ws`, a single socket, and `attachWs` assigned it. So the newest attach silently
took the turn away from whoever was already watching — and with a tab now holding up to three
panes, plus a phone and a laptop on the same conversation, several sockets per session stopped
being exotic and became the ordinary case. Now a Set, and every message goes to all of them.
`detachWs(sessionId)` was worse, because it named no socket: it nulled the field on ANY close.
A stale client going away therefore killed delivery for the client that had attached after it,
which is the "nothing happens on the Mac" half. It takes the socket now and removes only that
one, and the idle GC is armed only once nothing is left watching — otherwise a close would
collect a session another pane is still reading.
endTurnIfAgentIsGone takes the whole set for the same reason: a cut-off notice explains a
spinner that will otherwise never stop, and telling one of three clients leaves two spinning.
Typecheck clean. 600 pass, 2 fail — cliamp path-escape and the pty transport test, both
failing identically on master before this change.
Nobody has clicked it; the two devices that reported it are the test.

Two things.
The music now-playing restore is disabled on the web. The music sidecar is not running on
every machine that serves this app, so every page load fired /music/now-playing and logged a
503 in the console of a browser that was not there for music. Restoring a paused track is a
nicety; a permanent error on every load of every screen is not. The player is untouched — it
simply no longer asks what WAS playing.
And the chat socket now logs its own lifecycle: create, open, close with code and whether it
was stale or tearing down, every message received, and every message sent or queued with the
socket readyState. window.__officerWs = false turns it off.
This is instrumentation I should have added two rounds ago. A pane connects and then sits
silent, and I have now reasoned from this hook source three times without explaining it — the
browser says a socket closed and never says who closed it or whether the message left. The
handover doc says instrument before theorising and I did not follow my own note.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A pane on a remote server never connected: the console showed the socket closing before the
handshake finished, over and over, and the pane sat on Disconnected.
The stack named it — commitPassiveUnmountEffectsInsideOfDeletedTree plus
doubleInvokeEffectsOnFiber. The pane subtree is deleted and remounted, and the cleanup closed
the socket each time, while it was still CONNECTING. The replacement was then closed in turn.
React dev StrictMode double-invokes every effect on mount, so a fresh pane could churn
forever and never hold a connection.
The cleanup cannot tell a remount from a real unmount at the moment it runs, so it no longer
tries: the close is deferred a tick and cancelled if the effect re-runs. A remount reclaims
the live socket and the handshake completes; a real unmount has nobody to cancel it and
closes a frame later, which costs nothing.
Ruled out beforehand, by direct test: alpha accepts that exact key over wss on the first try,
with and without a browser Origin. The server was never involved.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A pane on a remote server reads fine and never connects its socket. Captured what has been
ruled out by direct test — the server accepts that exact key over wss with and without a
browser Origin, on the first try — so the next session does not re-derive any of it.
The remaining question is client-side lifecycle with several sockets mounted at once, and the
first move is instrumentation rather than theory: the console says a close arrived during
CONNECTING and does not say who called it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Reported from the mac: the alpha pane opened and read fine, and sending produced nothing at
all. The console showed the socket closing before it was established.
send dropped the message — readyState !== OPEN returned, silently, no error and no retry — so
enter did nothing and no turn ever started. Alpha was never at fault: the same key opens that
socket from outside the browser on the first try.
The window is not rare. React dev StrictMode double-invokes effects, so every socket is
created, closed and recreated on mount, and a reconnect reopens it again; with three chat
panes there are three sockets doing it at once, and one is always briefly not OPEN. One pane
with one stable socket is why this never bit before.
Queued and flushed on open, in order, after the resume/attach handshake rather than in front
of it. Bounded at 50 so a socket that never returns cannot grow it without limit, oldest
dropped first because the newest message is the one being waited on.
The mobile chat app has had this queue all along, for this exact reason. I read it this
morning, wrote the reason down, and did not port it.

Reported: three panes, MacBook selected, click a chat and the body says "No sessions yet".
Two causes, both from panes bypassing the screen-level machinery on purpose.
The transcript was never loaded. The screen resolver fetches it and writes to the shared
channel, which a pane deliberately does not read, so the pane got {id, title, cwd} and
nothing else. It resolves its own now, from ITS server — two machines can hold the same uuid,
so asking the wrong one is not merely empty, it is wrong — and shows a spinner while it does
rather than an empty conversation.
And the row navigated. That put /chat/<id> in the address bar, which reset the list cwd to
the default — empty on that machine — which is the "No sessions yet" he actually saw. In a
pane the directory is the pane, not the route: three panes cannot share one URL. Outside a
pane everything still comes from the route exactly as before.

React #185, maximum update depth, and the page with it.
usePublishChatTabName named useGlobal setter as an effect dependency. useGlobal rebuilds that
setter every render, so the effect re-ran every render, set global state, and rendered again.
The publisher directly above it in the same file documents this exact hazard — I copied the
shape and not the reason.
Now through a ref, depending on the string alone, identical to usePublishPageTitle.
Also stabilised setPaneTarget with useCallback. It is handed to every pane as onChange and a
pane puts it in a context others read, so a fresh identity each render is the same loop
waiting for the first consumer that depends on it. The active tab key is read through a ref
so it never has to be a dependency.

Reported from the iPad: MacBook selected, and the directory picker still listed alpha
folders.
Three layers all defaulted to this origin — useFilesAPI, DirPickerModal and PwdSelector — so
the pane pointed one way and the pickers another. Same defect as browseDirectories in the
mobile app, found this morning: a path only means something on the machine it came from, and
offering another machine folders is worse than offering none, because picking one silently
runs the agent somewhere that does not exist.
The dir-picker cache is keyed by server too. Without it one machine tree is served from cache
under the other name, which looks like the fix not working.
Other useFilesAPI callers pass no server and are unchanged — the code editor and the message
bubble still read this origin exactly as before.

Click the active tab (or double-click any) to rename it inline — Enter commits, Escape
cancels, blur commits, and an empty value hands the tab back to its derived name. Same shape
as renaming a conversation, which is the gesture that already exists here.
The name outranks everything: chatTabName ?? label ?? override ?? route. It is the most
specific statement anyone has made about the page — more specific than the conversation
inside it, since there may be three, and more deliberate than a browser-tab name typed
earlier on a different screen.
Only a name you TYPED is published. Publishing the derived label would restate the title the
chat already publishes one tier down, and would then outrank a browser-tab name for no reason
the user could see. Cleared on unmount, or every other screen would keep being called by the
chat tab you last had open.
The rename field seeds from the typed name only, never the derived one — pre-filling a name
the user never chose makes Enter silently adopt it as if they had.

The iPad layout in the browser. A tab holds one to three panes; each pane is a whole chat —
its own server chips, its own list, its own conversation, its own socket.
The blocker was that chat:selected-session is ONE channel for the screen, so two detail
panels would have shown the same conversation. A pane now provides its own selection through
context and usePaneSelection prefers it; outside a pane the context is absent and the channel
behaves exactly as before, so the dashboard chat panel and the mobile layout are untouched.
Context rather than props because SessionList and ChatDetailPanel sit at different depths and
neither should know whether it is inside a pane.
A pane shows its LIST until something is open and the CHAT afterwards, with one way back.
Mobile can afford both at once inside a pane; three of those in a browser column would leave
nothing for the conversation itself.
The layout lives in one unscoped localStorage entry, deliberately not per server — a tab
holding one conversation from the laptop and one from alpha belongs to neither. Pane keys are
re-minted on restore, because keys from a previous page whose counter restarted at zero make
React reuse the wrong subtree and a conversation appears in the wrong column.
What this gives up, and it is the only thing: /chat/<id> still deep-links but can only open
in the first pane. With three conversations on screen there is no single one for the address
bar to name.
WorkspaceView and the fixed three-panel layout are gone from this screen; the panels
themselves are unchanged and still registered for the dashboard.
Typecheck, 602 tests and the SPA bundle all pass. Nobody has clicked it.

Not built, and deliberately so — this is the idea as it stood, with the spawn path read at dc6b623 so
the next person does not have to re-derive it.
The obvious approach is wrong here and the document leads with why: officer-agent is one process
holding many sessions, so a PM2 env block or anything set in user-instance.ts is shared by every agent
on the box and cannot distinguish them. The injection point that does work is claude-manager.ts:315,
where cleanEnv is built once today but is already a per-query() option.
Recorded alongside it: opencode cannot do this at all since the serve migration, because no process is
spawned per turn; and per-agent identity is attribution, not isolation — agents share one working tree,
so two of them in one repo will still fight over index.lock. That is the larger problem and it is named
rather than solved.

The chat app on the iPad does this already and this is its model, not the music app one.
Music keeps its active server — one library at a time is the right question there. Chat is
the exception: two panels side by side, one on the laptop and one on alpha, both live, no
switching.
The mechanism is one string. A panel holds a serverId; that same string picks the base URL,
the credential, the websocket host and the tail of the react-query key. Nothing global is
consulted when it is named, which is exactly why two can be live at once — there is no
active server in connections.ts at all, because there is nothing to switch.
THIS ORIGIN IS NOT IN THE LIST. It is represented by null, so every existing useClient()
call is untouched and adding a connection cannot break the app you are already signed into.
That property is what makes this shippable before anyone has tried it.
A second server is reached with an ofk_ API key minted there, verified against /api/auth/me
before it is stored — a URL typo and a key from the wrong machine are otherwise
indistinguishable from an empty conversation list an hour later.
Copied deliberately from the mobile code: the base URL is derived per call rather than
memoised (a cached one hands back whichever server was asked for first), the row stamps its
server onto the selection BEFORE navigating (or the resolver reads the transcript from this
origin, where two officers can hold the same uuid), and changing server clears the cwd and
the open conversation, because a path from the machine you left names nothing on the one you
arrived at.
Not yet opened in a browser. Typecheck and 602 tests pass, and the cross-origin request with
an API key is verified by curl, but no human has clicked any of this.

The serve is the only path now, so this is not a comparison against a fallback.
Split by what I have actually driven end to end versus what probes cannot answer. The second
list is the real testing: resume from history (never exercised against the serve, and my
pick for most likely broken), an idle session, a sidecar restart mid-turn, an officer restart
mid-turn, and two conversations at once — that last one because the live event stream is
global and a wrong sessionID filter would splice one conversation into another.
Known gaps are listed so they do not get reported as bugs, and the one silent failure mode
with a single cause — a turn producing nothing at all — points at the credential line from
boot, which I have chased twice already.

The serve is now the only way an opencode turn runs. runner.ts and its tests are gone, and
so is the OPENCODE_TURNS switch — there is no fallback engine any more, and the recovery for
a bad day is git rather than a config flag. Deliberate, and cheap right now precisely because
nothing depends on opencode yet.
What goes with it: mapRunLine and its NDJSON fixtures, the temp-file spill for --file image
attachments, the supersede-and-kill dance, the process watchdogs, the pidfile-adjacent child
tracking, and stopAllOpenCodeTurns. All of it existed to work around stdin being /dev/null.
Verified after deletion, with no env var set at all: tool call, tool result, 5 streaming
deltas, text and cost, through the real chat socket.
Also corrected the comments the deletion falsified rather than leaving them to mislead — the
module header, the wire contract description of opencode:run-streaming, and serve-runner own
header, which still announced itself as off by default.
One difference worth stating: shutdown no longer kills anything. Turns run inside the serve,
which is a separate process that survives us, so officer stops routing them and says so in
the transcript. When a subprocess ran the turn, failing to kill it orphaned it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
runOpenCodeTurnOnServe ignored params.images entirely, which is defect B4 rebuilt on the new
path: the image renders in your own bubble and the model never receives it, with nothing
reporting a loss. Fixed before the path is switched on for anyone rather than after.
data: URIs, not file://, and that is measured — the wrong choice is accepted with a 200 and
then dies inside the turn with "Anthropic Messages media must contain valid base64". The
data URI round-trips and the model describes the image.
Strictly better than the subprocess path here: no temp file to spill and nothing to clean up,
because the bytes travel in the request.
Both prompt paths carry them — an ordinary send and a mid-turn injection. Verified end to end
through the chat socket with the serve engine on: a red png came back "**Red**", with deltas
streaming.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Phase C server half, and a real flaw in phase B.
On the subprocess path a second message could only supersede — kill the process, start again,
lose the turn — because opencode run has no input channel. The serve takes another prompt
into the running turn, so a message arriving mid-turn is handed over with delivery steer and
the existing turn is left exactly as it is.
Keeping the same turn object is the load-bearing part. Phase B retired it and registered a
replacement, which stops officer routing events the serve is still producing while the serve
carries on regardless: output goes nowhere and the turn looks hung.
Verified end to end through the chat socket — sent a count to 50, injected a change of plan
eight seconds in, and BANANA INJECTED came back inside the same turn with deltas streaming
throughout.
No client change was needed. Officer composer already sends while generating; the difference
is only what the sidecar does with it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
OPENCODE_TURNS=serve picks the new engine; unset keeps the subprocess, which is the default
and stays the default until this has been lived with. A bad evening should cost one restart,
not a revert. Claude is a different sidecar and is untouched.
Verified end to end through the real chat socket:
session:init -> tool:start(bash) -> tool:result -> assistant:delta x3 -> assistant:text
-> result, cost in=304 out=73
Those deltas are the first token streaming an opencode turn has ever produced in officer.
Stop is now an INTERRUPT: the turn ends and the session survives — verified by sending a
second prompt to the same session afterwards and getting an answer, which killing a
subprocess could never do.
Reads the LIVE global stream rather than the durable per-session one, because it is a strict
superset — same tool.called, tool.success, step.ended, text.ended, plus the deltas that are
the whole point. Global means one socket carries every session, so everything filters on
sessionID; one subscription is shared for the process rather than one per turn.
A turn ends on step.ended with finish != tool-calls. tool-calls is a step boundary MID-turn,
and treating it as terminal would cut every tool-using conversation in half.
delivery is stated explicitly as queue because it DEFAULTS to steer, which injects into a
running turn — wrong for an ordinary send, where two quick messages would merge into one.
Wiring steer to the button that means it is phase C.
What phase B does not do: read the durable stream. The sidecar still commits every event to
chat_session_events as it arrives, so durability is unchanged, but recovering a turn this
process never saw needs the ?after= cursor and is its own change.

The mapping half of the serve migration, written and pinned before anything depends on it,
so the switch-over is not also the moment the parsing turns out to be wrong. Nothing routes
through this — turns are still opencode run subprocesses, and the claude path is untouched.
The finding that matters: the serve publishes each turn TWICE, and reading the wrong one
makes it look like it cannot stream at all.
/api/session/{id}/event?after= durable, per session, replayable, durable.seq on every
event, whole values only, NO deltas
/api/event live, GLOBAL, ephemeral, carries text.delta and
tool.input.delta, no cursor
Same turn: 13 events durable, 21 live, the difference being 3 text.delta and 5
tool.input.delta. I probed the per-session one first and nearly recorded "no streaming" as
a fact — it would have removed the main reason to migrate. The split maps exactly onto what
officer already does for claude: durable to chat_session_events, live to UI deltas. The cost
is that the live stream is global, so a consumer must filter on sessionID.
tool:start is emitted on tool.called, not tool.input.started, because only tool.called has
the resolved input object — the input arrives as JSON fragments ({"comman) and a tool row
rendered with half-parsed arguments is worse than one that appears a moment later.
step.ended with finish tool-calls is a step boundary MID-turn, not the end of the turn, so
nothing terminal is emitted for it. Treating it as the end would cut every tool-using
conversation in half.
Fixtures are verbatim captures from 1.18.16. Replaying both real streams through the mapper
reconstructs the turn identically from each, with the reassembled deltas exactly equal to
the committed text and identical cost, and zero unrecognised events.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Crash-recovery state is not a gap: state:sync goes to the proxy capability and carries
proxySecret, and syncState/getCachedState have no callers at all. The row compared opencode
against a mechanism officer never consults. The real recovery story now exists and is better
— a sidecar restart stops in-flight turns and writes the reason to chat_session_events.
Identity is deferred, not forgotten: TODO.md already records it, and chat is kind execution,
which the grants API refuses to share at any level, so no member can reach it.
Also adds the serve migration plan, written while the facts are fresh and nothing is on
fire. It leads with the five things that will bite whoever implements it — per-request
location, the data wrapper, delivery defaulting to steer, silent failure on an unconnected
credential, and the session.next event names — because none of them are in the API docs and
each cost time to find today.
Phased so the old path stays one config flip away, and so warm-session lifetime (idle GC,
orphan adoption, the supersede race) is imported deliberately rather than discovered.

Bun.spawn throws on a missing or non-executable binary rather than resolving to a failed
process, and that throw escaped runOpenCodeTurn entirely — past the bookkeeping, out of the
sidecar command handler, with no opencode:event ever emitted. The browser sat on a spinner
nothing could end, because the code that ends turns had not been reached.
A wrong OPENCODE_BIN is the ordinary way to get there, so the message names the path it
tried: that is the difference between a fix and a debugging session.
Also records that messageCount is not a gap. SessionList renders an OpenCode badge in place
of the count for those rows, so the hardcoded 0 never reaches a screen, and computing a real
one would cost an HTTP call per listed session — the session record has no count field — to
populate something nothing shows.

opencode keeps credentials in two unrelated places. The CLI, opencode run and the legacy
/session surface read auth.json. The newer /api surface — the one with steer, queue,
interrupt and a resumable per-session stream — reads its own integration store and knows
nothing about that file.
With none connected it does not fail. It falls back to what needs no credential, the free
tier, and a request for a paid model is never executed: prompt accepted, admitted, prompted,
then no step, no error, no message, forever. That silence cost most of an afternoon and would
cost it again on every new machine — alpha included.
So the sidecar does it, rather than depending on someone having run a curl. Best-effort and
never blocking: turns go through opencode run, which reads auth.json and does not care.
Retried, because /api/health answers before the integration store is ready — the first
version of this shipped without a retry and failed on its very first real boot with a 500,
while the identical request succeeded seconds later. Only 5xx retries; a 4xx means the
request is wrong and repeating it just prints the same complaint six times.
Verified by deleting the credential, restarting, and running sonnet on the new pipeline with
no manual step.

Andre said his terminal opencode reaches paid zen models and suggested it was simply not set
up here. Correct, and my second wrong call on this page.
The new /api pipeline has its own credential store — /api/integration and /api/credential —
separate from auth.json, which is what the CLI, opencode run and the legacy /session surface
read. Ours had none connected, so it fell back to what needs no credential: the free tier.
One POST to /api/integration/opencode/connect/key fixes it, and it survives a serve restart.
sonnet and haiku both run on the new pipeline now.
The tell I had and did not use: the configured default is big-pickle, and a session with no
model ran on ling-3.0-tiny-free INSTEAD of the default. A pipeline ignoring its configured
default cannot use it — a credential symptom, sitting in /config/providers the whole time.
So steer, queue, interrupt and the resumable per-session SSE are all available with real
models. alpha needs the same one-time connect, and the sidecar should do it at boot rather
than depend on someone having run it by hand.

Follow-up to the /vaultwarden mount: the suffix is superfluous if officer can tell a
bitwarden client apart, and it can.
Most of vaultwarden surface does not collide at all — /identity, /notifications, /icons and
/events belong to it and to nothing here, so those are served at the root by path alone, no
sniffing. Only /api collides (vaultwarden has /api/settings/domains, officer has
/api/settings), and there the client says who it is: every bitwarden client stamps
Bitwarden-Client-Name, older ones Device-Type.
Trusting a client header is fine because this is ROUTING, not authentication — the worst a
forged one achieves is reaching vaultwarden, which then demands its own credential exactly
as it would have. Nothing is authorised by it.
Registered before /api so it wins for a bitwarden client, and narrow enough that an ordinary
officer request never matches. Verified: /identity reaches the proxy, /api/sync with the
header diverts, /api/chat/models without it still answers 401 from officer, and the SPA is
untouched. /vaultwarden still works for anything that prefers an explicit path.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
So the bitwarden browser extension can point here and the separate public vaultwarden
hostname can be taken down.
/api/vault cannot serve it: that router requires an officer session and REPLACES the caller
Authorization header with a server-held vaultwarden token. Right for our own clients — the
device then holds no vault credential — and impossible for a third-party client that gets
its own token from /identity/connect/token and has nowhere to put a platform JWT.
So a separate mount rather than a mode of that router: blending them would put an
unauthenticated branch inside the authenticated path. This one forwards Authorization
untouched and rewrites nothing.
Leaving it open is not a new exposure — everything here was already reachable at the
vaultwarden URL it replaces, behind the same master password, and officer cannot add a check
it has no credential for. It is also going behind tailscale.
Temporary. The end state is our own extension reusing @officer/vault, which already runs as
a plain JS bundle outside react native (the iOS autofill extension hosts it in
JavaScriptCore), against the /api/vault/session/login broker — then nothing addresses
vaultwarden directly and this mount is deleted rather than adjusted.
Needed its own entry in server.tsx: only listed paths reach hono and the rest fall through
to the SPA, so without it the endpoint answered 200 with the react shell — a missing route
that looks like a working one.

Regression from my own B7 change, reported within the hour: turns collapsing to "turn
completed without output" and coming back only on refresh.
B7 stopped resume-cursor defaulting an unidentified session to claude-code. Correct for the
durable cut-off row, wrong for adoption: useChat sends model only if modelRef.current is
set, so a reconnect without one is routine, not exotic. Declining to adopt left the socket
unbound to the live session, so the running turn output went nowhere — and a refresh looked
like a fix because it rebuilds from the durable log.
Adoption is about DELIVERY and must be generous; only the durable write needs certainty. So
adopt on the default again, mark it as an assumption, and skip the cut-off check on it.
That keeps B7 fixed — no false "agent went away" written against an opencode session — with
no unbound sockets.

Same shape as the claude side, which has never shown a live row without a name.
OpenCode titles a session from the conversation and does it well, but asynchronously — so
for the whole time a turn is RUNNING, which is exactly what /chat/live shows, the session is
still called "New session - <ISO>". Its own title wins the moment it exists; until then the
row falls back to the prompt that started the session.
Kept per sessionKey, first turn only, so it stays the name of the conversation rather than
following whatever was asked most recently. Dropped with the session id it sits beside.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
OpenCode titles a session from the conversation, but asynchronously — a finished turn of
ours ended up called "Single color in oc-red2.png", better than anything we would generate.
Until then the session is literally named "New session - 2026-08-10T15:44:17.178Z".
That window is exactly when a session is most visible: /chat/live shows turns that are
RUNNING, so the placeholder is what the panel catches, and a live row was being labelled
with a timestamp string.
Recognise it and treat it as untitled, so the good name arrives on its own. Passing --title
on the run was the other option and is worse: it fixes the transient case by permanently
replacing opencode own title with a truncated prompt, degrading it where it lasts longest.
A pattern match rather than startsWith, because a genuine title is allowed to begin with
those words. Two defects the tests caught while writing them: a whitespace-only title was
not treated as unnamed, and the mapping let undefined through where a string was required.

Bucket 1 lists them as No, and phase 4 put them behind the migration. opencode run takes
--file, so the path we already use carries them.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
B4 properly. The composer gate was the honest stopgap; this is the fix. opencode run takes
attachments with --file, so images work on the subprocess path we already use — the parity
doc had them down as phase 4, behind the serve migration, and they were not.
The bug was one omission: handleOpenCodeChat`s msg type had no images field, so the browser
sent them, the bubble rendered them, and they stopped at that signature. Nothing reported a
loss anywhere.
Attachments are paths, not inline data, so the sidecar spills each image to a temp file for
the length of the turn and removes it in settle — the same place every other per-turn
resource is released, so a killed or superseded turn cleans up too.
The load-bearing detail is `--` before the prompt: --file is an array option, so without the
separator the prompt is eaten as another filename and the turn dies with "File not found:"
followed by the entire message. Confirmed against the binary, and pinned by a test that
records argv from a stub.
list-models now reports each model own capability instead of a hardcoded false — opencode
publishes capabilities.input.image per model and nothing had ever read it. Defaults to false,
so a model that does not declare it keeps the affordance hidden.
Verified end to end: a red png sent over the chat socket to opencode/claude-sonnet-4-6 came
back "Red".

Not sonnet, and not variant. Swept models through the new pipeline: every -free model runs,
every paid one silently does not — haiku, sonnet and codex-mini all never start.
Ruled out: variant (sonnet advertises low/medium/high/max and echoes back an invalid
"default", which looked like the answer and was not — setting high explicitly also never
ran); credentials (zen key in auth.json plus ANTHROPIC_API_KEY); and the sidecar environment,
since the same process runs sonnet fine through opencode run.
So the new pipeline does not resolve paid-model credentials and says nothing, while run and
the legacy path authenticate fine. Upstream bug in an in-progress pipeline, not our config.
The fork stays blocked, but precisely: steer and queue are proven, and the day a paid model
runs there the migration is worth doing immediately. Re-run the sweep after each upgrade.

The previous commit migrated only when SQLite was completely empty, on the assumption that a non-empty
file is an authoritative one. A real account disproved that within minutes of it landing.
The older Gmail backfill had already written SOME keys into SQLite — last_sync_at and the uidvalidity
set — and never the imap_lastuid ones. So the file was non-empty and half-migrated at the same time,
all-or-nothing skipped the migration, and nine imap_lastuid keys stayed only in Postgres. A missing
lastuid makes the next sync refetch that folder from UID 1: on the mailbox this was found on, 18,755
messages and 6.9 GB.
Now merged per key with the file always winning a conflict. That keeps the property all-or-nothing was
protecting — a restored older emails.db still overrides a newer Postgres row for every key it has, so it
cannot be advanced past mail it does not contain — and adds the keys the file never had, which are
exactly the ones whose absence is expensive.
Verified against the live account: all 22 Postgres keys present afterwards, imap_lastuid:INBOX restored
to 208407, and last_sync_at left at the file's older value, so it re-checks a fortnight rather than
skipping it.

I concluded a few commits ago that the serve new /api/session pipeline accepts prompts and
never executes them, and kept turns on opencode run. Wrong. Every probe behind that passed
an explicit model claude-sonnet-4-6, and THAT model silently does not run on the new
surface — no error, no event, no assistant message. Drop the field and the same request
completes.
One broken variable in every experiment, read as a property of the system.
Measured on 1.18.16, both machines upgraded today: delivery steer injects into a running
turn (verified, output changed to order), delivery queue runs after it (verified, ONE then
TWO, zero errors), and model selection works via POST /model — just not with sonnet.
So the fork is reopened and worth taking, targeting the new surface rather than the legacy
message path, which generates fine but has neither steer nor queue. Blocked only on why
sonnet dies there while working under opencode run.
Third time this project has hit the same trap: opencode accepts input it does not honour
and says nothing — directory in the body, location.directory that never existed, now model.
A probe that changes one thing and sees nothing has not learned the feature is missing.

The messages were in emails.db and the position — last_sync_at, and per-folder uidvalidity/lastuid —
was a jsonb column on email_accounts in Postgres. Two stores for one fact, with an edge that only shows
up when you try to move a mailbox to another machine.
The expensive part of an email account is the first sync: hours of IMAP for a large mailbox, which is
exactly why "copy emails.db to the new server" is the obvious way to bring one across. With the position
in Postgres that silently does not work — the new server's column is empty, !last_sync_at says first
sync, and the whole mailbox downloads again on top of the one just restored.
The other direction is quieter and worse. Restore an OLDER emails.db while Postgres holds a NEWER
position and the sidecar skips every message between the two, permanently, because nothing looks below
lastuid again. Re-syncing is slow; skipping mail is data loss nobody notices.
Not a new idea — the Gmail path already read SQLite and fell back to Postgres, backfilling so the
fallback was taken once. Only the IMAP path had not followed. This extracts that pattern so both use one
copy, and unifies the isFirstSync fork in accounts.ts, which is how the two drifted apart to begin with.
The file wins over Postgres, always, and only migrates when it holds nothing at all. Topping up a
partial position from Postgres would reintroduce precisely the divergence this removes.
email_accounts.sync_meta is kept and marked legacy rather than dropped: it is the one-time backfill
source for every account created before this, and dropping it would strand any that has not synced
since. Nothing writes to it now.
11 tests on the migration, aimed at both expensive failures — migrating when we should not, and failing
to migrate an account that predates the change.

The serve has a second, newer API surface nobody here had looked at, and it publishes
exactly what the parity doc calls impossible under stdin ignore: delivery steer and queue
on POST /prompt, an interrupt that does not tear down, and a per-session event stream with
an after cursor — the durable-replay machinery officer hand-built for claude, as a
primitive. That would have made migrating obvious.
It does not execute. A prompt is accepted with an admittedSeq, stored, emits
prompt.admitted and prompted, and then never steps. Ruled out separately: the model, the
permissions (build is *:allow, no pending requests), the per-request location (the surface
is location-scoped via header or a deepObject query, supplied everywhere, no change), and a
config gate. The legacy POST /session/id/message?directory= generates fine in 17s, so the
serve itself works — only the new pipeline is inert. session.next.* is the tell.
And not a version problem, which is the part everything here had backwards: this Mac runs
1.18.11 and alpha runs 1.17.9, measured. The dead pipeline was tested on the NEWER binary.
The original "this server runs 1.17.9" meant alpha and was copied to a machine where it was
false; corrected in runner.ts and the test.
So building against it now would produce code that looks finished and does nothing, which
is the failure mode this project keeps rediscovering. One request reopens the question
after any upgrade, and the doc names it.
Also de-flakes the lifecycle tests: they spawn real processes, and a fixed sleep(750) went
red once on a machine busy running these probes. Presence assertions poll now.

They were permanently unnamed, and the two halves needed to name them already existed on
officer: the sidecar reports its own sessionKey because that is all it has, while the ses_ id
arrives separately over opencode:session and is recorded in opencode/state.ts. Nothing joined
them. /chat/live joins them now, so no protocol or sidecar change — widening
LiveOpenCodeSession would have meant sending the sidecar a fact it told officer in the first
place.
One list call names every row rather than one transcript load each, and it is skipped when
nothing is running or no id has been reported, so an idle Live panel never touches the serve.
Verified against a real turn, which also showed the design working as intended: the first
poll has no id yet and shows nothing, the next shows title and cwd. That window is real and
short, and showing nothing beats showing a key the user has never seen.
Worth knowing: opencode titles its own sessions "New session - <ISO timestamp>", so the row
is located but not meaningfully named. That is genuinely its title, not a bug here.

B8 done, so every defect that made opencode behave wrongly is fixed. Notes what that does
not mean: bucket 1 is capability gaps, and the visible ones are downstream of the phase 2
fork, which is still unstarted and still Andre to call.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
B8, both halves. They share index.ts, so they share a commit.
In-flight turns: `opencode run` is spawned, not supervised, so pm2 restart officer-opencode
left every turn ALIVE — reparented, still spending tokens, still writing files as the agent,
with the only reader of its stdout gone. The transcript stopped mid-tool-call, which reads
as the agent hanging.
stopAllOpenCodeTurns kills them and settles each synchronously, because the caller is about
to process.exit and nothing waiting on proc.exited would ever run. Settling writes a reason,
so a reload after a restart explains itself instead of trailing off. Turns are stopped BEFORE
the connection is destroyed — that write travels over it — and the flush is bounded, since
losing the explanation is bad but hanging the restart is worse.
Stale serves: the sweep read /proc, so it was a no-op on macOS and orphaned serves piled up,
one per unclean exit, each holding a port. Added a pidfile sweep alongside it. A pid we wrote
ourselves needs no cwd guard to prove it is ours, which is the part ps cannot answer portably
(macOS would need lsof), and a serve started by hand is never in the file.
The guard checks command AND subcommand: matching the word serve anywhere in the line would
sweep a running turn whose prompt merely mentioned it. Fixtures are real ps output from both
machines, not invented. Split into serve-sweep.ts because index.ts spawns a serve at module
scope, so a test importing it would start one.

The bucket-0 table had no status anywhere; it lived in the report docs, which means the
list itself still reads as eight open defects. Says B1-B7 are done and where.
Also corrects B7 in place: the table describes the spurious cut-off only, and the same
default was mis-adopting the session into the wrong harness entirely.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
B7. `msg.model || DEFAULT_MODEL` declared every session without an explicit model to be
claude-code, and the parity doc recorded only the visible half of what that cost.
The durable false cut-off is real: endTurnIfAgentIsGone asked the claude sidecar about a
key it had never held, was told false, and wrote "the agent went away" into a turn that
was running fine. It survives reload, because surviving reload is what that row is for.
The same default also handed the session to adoptOrphanedSession as a claude one, which
subscribes it to that sidecar bus and pins session.model — so an opencode turn output
never arrived, and stopping it called killClaude on a key that sidecar never had. A stop
button that silently does nothing.
decideResume makes both rules explicit: the server record beats the client claim, and an
unknown harness stays unknown — no adoption, no cut-off check, just the replay. Silence
is the safe failure when the wrong answer is written durably.
DEFAULT_MODEL stays in handleAttach and is now commented as to why: that path reached its
sessionId by asking the claude sidecar to resolve a claudeSessionId, so only claude could
have answered.
First test in api/chat, which had none. websocket.ts has no seam to drive the handler
through, so the decision is extracted and tested; the wiring around it is not covered.

Agreed in conversation, nothing implemented. Light stops being a variant and becomes the baseline —
chat, terminal, file browser — and the other fourteen sidecars arrive by the user asking for them from
an app store, eventually including sidecars the user did not write.
Mostly not a rewrite, for three reasons already true: every API route stays mounted regardless of which
sidecars run, officer already spawns nothing, and service_connections already solves the multi-user
case. What is new is provisioning, per-sidecar schema, and persisted install state.
Docker: officer is the installer, never the owner. Real compose files in the user's own directory,
started as him, found again by label. `docker compose down` works, and the containers outlive Officer.
Per-sidecar schema is right here specifically because third-party plugins are a real goal, and the
dependency graph makes it tractable: measured across 19 schema files, every sidecar depends on auth.ts
and nothing else, with no sidecar-to-sidecar edges anywhere. So the plugin contract is "you may
reference users.id" — which also makes full uninstall well-defined, since nothing else points at a
plugin's tables.
service_connections stays core and shared rather than per-service, because it already does the part
nobody would get right alone: a NULL url means "inherit the instance", so the owner's row is the
instance and members hold only their own credential, making "members never see the instance URL" a
property of the schema instead of a filter someone has to remember.
Records six open questions rather than settling them, including plugin migrations, ID namespacing for a
marketplace, and where plugin-specific config lives.

The review was written as a handover; it became a fixed tree instead. Records what
landed, including the two leaks that only showed up while fixing it, and leaves the
original reasoning untouched so it still reads as the argument it was.

Two comments describing behaviour the code does not have.
LiveOpenCodeSession had been inserted between LiveClaudeSession and its docblock, so a
comment about isGenerating, pendingTasks and the idle GC read as documentation for the
OpenCode type — where it is contradicted by the correct comment directly beneath it.
Moved below, and it now states that it carries no ses_ id.
That absence is the point: /chat/live claimed title and cwd come from the session store
"so a turn whose id has not been reported yet shows unnamed". Nothing is looked up, and
there is no id here to look one up with. They are null permanently, not until-known.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A replaced turn is killed but dies asynchronously, so its proc.exited fired long after
the replacement was registered under the same sessionKey — and then ran the whole
completion path against it: emitted "OpenCode exited with code 143", which the sidecar
commits to chat_session_events so a false failure became permanent history, then deleted
the replacement from `running`. That blinded the new Live panel, made the stop button a
no-op and orphaned a process nothing could reach.
Mark the handle before killing it, retire it silently, and identity-check the delete —
a superseded turn does not own that key any more.
Two leaks in the same family, found while fixing it. An early return would not have been
enough: both watchdogs call finish, so the armed 10-minute hardTimer would have fired an
error at whichever turn held the key by then. And handleLine had no `done` guard, so
stdout still draining from the killed process was emitted under the replacement key.
Reproduced before fixing. The lifecycle tests need no real opencode — RunnerConfig.bin
takes a shell script that sleeps. The control test pins that an ordinary non-zero exit
still reports an error, so the guard cannot overreach.
