host found a live regression from 95951fb, on the owner's own paths.
resolveBaseCwd used to take an email and resolve its own root. 95951fb made the
first parameter the home itself, and three callers outside that diff kept
passing an email: pipeline-executor twice and agent-handoff once. Both
parameters are string, so tsgo had nothing to say. Every pipeline step and
handoff with a relative cwd, a `~`, or no cwd was building a path out of an
address, resolving it against the platform's own working directory — the
checkout. Absolute paths kept working, which is what would have made it look
intermittent.
All three are owner-only, so they now pass getOwnerHomeDir(email) explicitly,
the way agent-runner does. The definition of resolveBaseCwd carries the warning:
an absolute path, NOT an email, with the reason.
Not done: the branded type this argues for. Two strings meaning "identity" and
"filesystem path" sat adjacent through a refactor and the compiler could not
help, which is a real gap — but it reaches every path function in the server,
and doing it at 01:00 on the back of a bug caused by a hasty refactor would be
the joke telling itself.

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