Brennan Benson e2fa611916 feat(native-chat): chat scratch folders expire after 30 days unused (#28394)
* fix(files): never write through a dangling symlink

A path that doesn't exist yet was authorized by walking up to the nearest
existing folder. A dangling symlink fails realpath with ENOENT, so the walk
stepped over it and approved the link's own path; the write then followed
the link and created its target outside the allowed folders. The walk now
continues from the link's target, and returns that real destination.

* refactor(native-chat): rename the chat visuals folder to the chat scratch folder

The per-chat folder agents write into is the chat's scratch space, not only
a visuals folder. Its root becomes <state>/chat-scratch/<hash> (the hash is
unchanged) and the agent variable becomes ORCA_CHAT_SCRATCH_DIR. The old
ORCA_CHAT_VISUALS_DIR is never set and is still stripped from what every
agent child inherits, Pi included. The visuals skill names the new variable
and says the folder is temporary.

* test(native-chat): keep the delivery test to the rename

The launch parity snapshot already pins that every agent drops the
pre-rename variable.

* feat(native-chat): chat scratch folders expire after 30 days unused

A chat's scratch folder was removed only when its record was gone or its
local workspace was proven deleted, so the folder of a long-idle chat
lived forever.

The sweep now expires a chat's folder once its newest journal row and
the newest entry anywhere in the folder (complete, no-follow scan) are
older than 30 days, unless the host holds a running agent, a delivery or
an open dispatch for the chat. The final recheck and a rename to
<hash>.expired run in the chat's session lane and then a per-folder lock
that Orca scratch saves (desktop IPC and host RPC) also take; the delete
runs outside both. A save that settles after the age scan marks that
expiry stale. Leftover .expired folders and the pre-rename
native-chat-visuals root are removed.

The workspace-removed rule and its catalog verdict are deleted.

* fix(files): refuse any dangling symlink in the missing-path walk

Following a dangling link by hand resolved relative targets against the
lexical parent, not the link's real folder: through a folder link the walk
could loop forever or authorize the wrong file. Refuse instead: realpath
can't say where a dangling link leads, but a write would follow it.

* test(files): drop the loop case that duplicated the dangling-link refusal

* refactor(native-chat): trim the scratch expiry and test the real live-work veto

- Remove the other-profile catalog options (running profile id, never-written
  profiles) that only the deleted workspace verdict used; history cleanup's
  reader is unchanged.
- The sweep keeps its original remove-and-warn block; an unused chat's
  folder is parked by one function. Drop the unused `now` option and the
  candidate identity check.
- The live-agent case runs against the host's real runWhileExecutionIdle.

* style(native-chat): keep the session host within its line limit after the main sync

* fix(native-chat): every scratch save and every overlapping sweep share the folder lock

Binary (base64) runtime saves now take the scratch folder lock like text saves, and each folder
keeps a set of expiry candidates so one sweep finishing no longer hides a save from another.

Brennan Benson 0504670961 Fix CLI delivery and fresh launch environments for managed SSH agents (#26464)
* fix: refresh host environments before structured agent command resolution

* fix: ship the owning server CLI for managed remote agents

* test: include the shipped CLI in remote install fixtures

* Bind packaged agent CLI calls to their execution host

* Keep owning-server CLI binding scoped to managed agents

* Serve the last shell environment to chat starts and refresh it in the background

Only the first chat start waits for the login shell; later starts get the last
snapshot and refresh it in the background once it is 10 s old. On Windows hosts
without the registry addon (managed server slots), the saved PATH is reread
with reg.exe. The Windows server CLI launcher stager now checks the target
architecture, and the CLI help says ambient selectors are ignored inside a
managed server.

* Keep the last good shell environment when a refresh fails, and load the Windows profile once

A login-shell capture now says whether the shell produced the env or Orca fell back
to its own, and only a real capture replaces the snapshot. Windows loads the
PowerShell profile once per process and refreshes only the saved PATH. The reg.exe
fallback queries the whole key so a missing user Path no longer drops the saved PATH.
The first capture starts when the resolvers are created.

* Keep the last good login-shell env for other readers while a forced refresh runs

* Mark the Claude launch resolver as a reviewed router-aware module

It only types the chat command resolver it injects; main's launch-routing guard (#26801) matched the name.

* Keep a settled login-shell env for readers during a refresh and share the first run

- Any settled cached entry, a fallback included, now serves other readers while a forced capture
  runs; only a real capture replaces it.
- Native chat's first capture shares a run a startup reader already began, so the login shell
  runs once per process at startup on macOS/Linux.
- Type the injected Claude resolver without naming resolveClaudeCommand.
- Cover the runtime's Claude command options, the owning-host --host check, and the PTY flag drop.

* Drop an inherited owning-host flag from daemon terminal panes

The persistent terminal daemon merges its own environment into every pane, so an inherited
ORCA_CLI_OWNING_HOST reached desktop panes even though main strips it from the spawn env.
Drop it with the other per-launch CLI variables.

* Route agents to their own server through ordinary launch defaults; start the first chat after an install

The native-chat agent environment now sets the owning server's ORCA_USER_DATA_PATH and
empty ORCA_ENVIRONMENT / ORCA_PAIRING_CODE / ORCA_REMOTE_PAIRING, which the CLI already
reads as unset; empty rather than deleted, because the spawn merges the launch overlay
over the server's own env. The ORCA_CLI_OWNING_HOST flag, the CLI's skip of ambient
selectors, the launchers' export of it, the terminal clean-up, the help-text exception
and the WSL launcher guard are gone, so a person's terminal follows their own settings
as on main.

A launch that finds no program in the shell snapshot waits for one shared refresh (at
most one shell timeout) and resolves again; create support rereads the shell once
before refusing. On Windows a failed PowerShell profile load is retried on the next
refresh instead of being kept until restart.

* One shared shell reread when an agent's program is missing

The pre-create check for OpenCode, OMP and Pi forced its own login-shell
capture on every refusal: not shared with launches, one per concurrent
check, triggered by an installed-but-too-old version too, and an older
capture finishing last could overwrite a newer cached environment. On
Windows, every launch miss also reran a failed PowerShell profile load,
bypassing the 10-second limit.

- One saved shell environment per host: chat launches, their misses, the
  pre-create check and AI commit messages read it and share one refresh.
- The pre-create check resolves the agent's program the way a launch does,
  so only a missing program waits for the refresh; registrations declare
  how to resolve their launch and check its version.
- A forced login-shell capture joins one already running for the same
  shell, so captures cannot land out of order.
- On Windows, a miss within 10 s of a failed PowerShell load rereads only
  the saved PATH.

* One owner for the cached shell environment

Review found two more races in the reread-on-miss machinery, both from the
host wrapper keeping its own snapshot beside the login-shell cache:
- A launch that found no program could join a reread that started before the
  agent was installed, and spend its one retry on the old PATH.
- On Windows, saved-PATH rereads renewed the snapshot's age, so a failed
  PowerShell profile was never retried while launches kept missing.

The login-shell cache is now the only owner of the captured environment, the
run in progress and which result wins (the newest run started; a fallback
never replaces a captured env). It takes three options instead of `force`:
- startedAfter: a lookup that found nothing waits for a run that started no
  earlier than the lookup did, joining one if it has, else starting one.
- refreshAfterMs: serve the last result and rerun in the background once the
  last attempt is older.
- keepCaptured: a captured env is kept for good; only a fallback is rerun
  (Windows' PowerShell profile).

The host wrapper keeps only policy: the 10 s interval, on Windows the saved
PATH laid over the profile env on every read (a miss forces a fresh registry
read), and the settings overlays. Its snapshot, pending promise, staleness and
Windows "loaded" bookkeeping are gone. A lookup's start time travels with the
miss (resolveAgainAfterRefreshOnMissingProgram passes it).

* Read an injected shell environment once per runtime, as main does

The previous commit read an injected environment on every acquisition, which
broke main's 'caches shell exports but re-reads configured overrides for a
resume' contract. It is read once when the resolvers are made again.

* Model lists reread the environment on a missing program, as launches do

Live QA: the first new chat after installing Claude showed "Claude wasn't
found on the computer running this chat". The chat launch itself reread the
login shell and started the new binary, but Claude's model-list check ran
first, with the environment read before the install, and never retried:
catalog probes were deliberately built without the miss refresh.

The retry now lives in each agent's one shared lookup of its binary and
environment, which a launch and a model listing both call:
resolveCodexStructuredInvocation, resolveAcpLaunchInvocation, a new shared
resolvePiRpcInvocation, and resolveClaudeChildEnvSources (which already had
it). Each catalog probe is given the runtime's refreshAfterMissingProgram,
and the catalog context no longer strips it, so a listing and a launch
reread the same single-owner environment the same way.

* Pass optional launch lookups through directly instead of conditional spreads

* Read the host shell env through resolveLoginShellEnvironment; drop the extra wait cap

CI on the merge with main failed main's new codex-workspace-relative-path
test (#26684), which mocks the login-shell module with only
resolveLoginShellEnvironment: the wrapper called captureLoginShellEnvironment
and imported the spawn-timeout constant. The wrapper only needs the env, so
it reads through resolveLoginShellEnvironment again, as on main.

The miss wait no longer races its own 5 s timer: the shell run it waits for
is already killed at the spawn timeout, so the second cap was a guard over
the same bound. The constant goes back to private, as on main.

* Test that a hung login shell holds a launch miss for at most one shell timeout

The bound lives in the one owner: the shell run is killed at the spawn
timeout (5 s) and settles to a fallback, which never replaces a captured
snapshot. A mutation raising that timeout fails this test.

* A program found through a relative PATH entry is not missing

Main's #26684 runs Codex through a workspace-relative PATH entry (`bin`,
`node_modules/.bin`). The lookup searches such an entry against Orca's own
directory and returns the bare name; the spawn then finds the program in the
chat's directory. Counting that bare name as missing made every such launch
wait for a login-shell reread.

The retry now fires only when the lookup truly found nothing: a bare name back
from a PATH whose entries are all absolute. Each agent's one lookup tells it
which PATH it searched.

* Count a relative PATH entry as found only when it holds the program; Windows miss waits for a saved PATH read started after it looked

A bare name with a relative PATH entry is checked from the launch's working
directory, so an agent in neither entry still gets its one reread. On Windows the
miss no longer joins a registry read that began before the lookup.

Brennan Benson c5d7628686 fix(native-chat): chats from before permission modes keep the mode they were running with (#28099)
* fix(native-chat): chats saved before permission modes run the new-chat default

A Claude or Codex chat created before chats had their own permission mode has
none saved, and it ran Ask, so every existing chat of a Yolo user started asking
for approval after the update. A chat with no saved mode now runs Settings ->
Chat -> Permissions, read from the host's settings on each launch, read and
restart check.

* fix(native-chat): an older chat keeps the new-chat mode its first start ran with

A chat saved before chats had permission modes ran the new-chat default on every
start, so it kept following that setting. Its first start now writes the mode it
ran into the chat's saved options, through the same write that already carries the
chat's other options over a start; from then on it is a chat with its own mode.

* fix(native-chat): save older chats' permission mode once at host startup

Replace the save-at-first-start path with one startup pass: before the chat
host is exposed, every Claude and Codex record with no saved permissionMode
gets the host's new-chat default, in one store transaction. Saved values,
including invalid ones, and every other option are left alone; a read-only
store is skipped and a failure is logged and retried next start.

The runtime fallback in launch, acquisition, provider-started and attach is
restored to main's behaviour. A client-supplied attach that creates a new
record now gets the same new-chat seed as every other create path.

* fix(native-chat): fill each older chat from its own agent's arguments

An older Claude or Codex chat ran with that agent's own Arguments before
permission modes existed, so the startup pass now saves full access or ask
per agent instead of the combined new-chat default. A user with Claude on
bypass and Codex on Manual keeps Claude chats on full access.

The attach create path always passes its permission seed; the reservation
already applies options only when it creates the record.

* refactor(native-chat): read each chat's agent arguments directly in the permission backfill

* test(native-chat): give stub runtimes the launch seed the attach path reads

Brennan Benson 2233fd3669 feat(native-chat): each Claude/Codex chat gets its own permission mode (#26116)
Each native Claude and Codex chat now has its own permission mode (Ask for approval, Accept edits for Claude, Approve for me, Full access), shown and changed from a button right after "+" in the composer. A change takes effect before the next message: the agent restarts quietly and resumes the same conversation, never interrupting a reply or background work. New chats start from Settings → Chat → Permissions, which is seeded once from Agent Permissions. The mode is stored as an ordinary chat option, and the restart reuses the existing "replace the agent before the next message" step.

Brennan Benson c0e2b73395 feat(native-chat): require Codex 0.136.0 for chats (#26684)
* Require Codex 0.136.0 for native chats

* Add host-owned Codex install and update actions

* Bind Codex checks and maintenance to the selected installation

* Resolve Windows updater cleanup through system helpers

* Use one child environment for Codex checks and launch

* Expire Codex readiness and reconcile current host jobs

* Resolve Codex checks against the child command search path

* Restrict global npm repair to the selected Codex install layout

* Pin the host updater directory through Windows supervision

* Synchronize Codex maintenance fixtures on readiness

* Unify Codex notices and recover version-refused chats

* Route Codex recovery to the operation that remains

* Preserve Codex setup execution errors in the job log

* Preserve UTF-8 in Codex setup logs

* Remove unused Codex host installation detector

* Require host administration for Codex maintenance

* Show a missing Codex explanation once

* test(native-chat): give scripted Codex runtimes their installation fact; keep the registry out of the relay

Runtime tests that drive a scripted Codex app-server still ran the new
version check against whatever codex was on the machine's PATH: refused
on CI (no codex), and on a dev machine it ran the real codex --version.
A scripted transport now must state the Codex it stands for
(readCodexInstallation), asserted at install, and the tests get it from
one scriptedCodexTransport fixture.

The relay's Codex maintenance path reached @orca/windows-registry through
resolvePathEnvKey's re-export in windows-environment-path; import it from
its registry-free module instead.

Also update the catalog-probe test for the shared child environment.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the Update Codex action; keep Install for a missing Codex

A too-old Codex now gets only the plain message ("Codex X is too old for
chats. Update to 0.136.0 or newer.") with no button and no job. The
existing rechecks (window focus, the <=30 s expiry of a saved result)
retry the refused chat once the user has updated Codex themselves.

A missing Codex keeps the Install Codex button: `npm install -g
@openai/codex` with the npm on the chat's PATH, as a host-run job with
its log, then a recheck and recovery. A configured Command that is
missing gets the message only, since a global npm install would not
land at that path.

Removed: the `codex update` command and its 0.126 floor, manual
instructions, npm layout and launcher identity detection, the action
descriptor (install|update) and its titles, the legacy capability, and
the SSH relay maintenance path (structured chat never runs over SSH or
WSL), so the relay preflight handler is back to main's.

* refactor(native-chat): keep Install Codex in Settings only

When Codex isn't installed, main already hides Codex from the New tab menu,
so the in-chat Install button was almost never reachable. Settings → Agents
already shows "Codex isn't installed." with Install Codex.

- Chats and the new-workspace composer now only state "Codex isn't
  installed." (no button, no install job from the chat).
- The Install action, its busy spinner and the host-busy subscription move
  into the Settings Codex row, the only place that starts the job.
- The store no longer re-checks every other workspace context when a job
  finishes. A refused chat recovers through the same re-check a too-old
  Codex uses (window focus, or the <=30 s expiry of a saved result).
- The chat recovery key no longer includes the install job id.
- Tests: Settings drives the install; a new test proves a chat refused for
  a missing Codex recovers through focus after a Settings install, not
  through the job; the expiry recovery test covers missing and too old.

* refactor(codex): check chat compatibility when acquiring the child

* Restore workspace submit guard and simplify Codex maintenance

* Keep only the Codex chat minimum version

Brennan Benson d3182d4bf1 Native chat: every agent launches through one composed launch path (#27204)
* test(chat): snapshot every native-chat agent's spawned child as a parity oracle

Captures the exact child each native-chat agent spawns (Claude, Codex, Grok,
OpenCode, OMP, Pi), worktree and floating, fresh and resumed, plus a registered
worker with visuals off, at the real spawn boundary (the process host's spawn)
and through production's own host dependency wiring. The inherited environment
holds every pane, hook, caller, terminal-handle and visuals key a parent Orca
pane could hand down, so the snapshot records today's per-agent differences as
they are. Each case also records the launch's permission posture, which for
Codex (thread policy) and the ACP agents (full access) acts only after spawn.

Each agent also runs fresh and resumed with every launch setting moved off its
default: a Command setting naming another binary, the permission posture
flipped, an environment overlay over inherited and shell keys, and only named
login-shell variables inherited (the fake login shell carries its own PATH and
a variable no case names).

A second test fails when a registered agent has no snapshot, since the oracle
lists its agents by hand.

Test only: the launch-path refactor that follows must leave both tests and the
snapshot file unchanged.

* refactor(chat): one composed launch for every native-chat agent

Every native-chat agent (Claude, Codex, Grok, OpenCode, OMP, Pi) now builds its
child through one composer instead of six hand-written resolvers. Each agent
contributes only its own part (command, args, agent env, keys it must strip);
the shared composer admits the session record, reads the launch directory,
base environment, launch overrides and visuals once each (memoized, in the
agent's original order), sets cwd, and seals the child.

The seal (sealStructuredSessionChild) is the one place that names a child:
session id, structured marker, worker terminal handle, the Orca CLI env, the
spawn token under one shared constant, and the per-launch list of inherited
keys to delete, minus any key the seal itself sets. Claude's delete list now
reaches its SDK spawn after buildClaudeChildProcessEnv's merge.

Behaviour is unchanged: the parity snapshot from the previous commit passes
byte for byte, including each agent's existing differences (Claude and Codex
keep inherited pane and hook env, Pi has no visuals and always full access,
the ACP history read stays unsealed). Admission refusals keep their reasons;
only log-only wording moved to the shared check.

Drops launch dependencies no production caller wires (resolveLaunchEnv,
resolveCodexOverrides) and folds the per-agent env overlay hooks into the
existing resolveAgentLaunchEnv.

* refactor(chat): only the seal names a native-chat child

Follow-ups from review of the composed launch:

- The spawn token is required on every resolveLaunch. The one read that
  starts no child, ACP's restart-recovery history read, now has its own
  path (composeStructuredLaunchRead, deps.readLaunch) that returns the
  agent's own env unsealed, as before. Agent parts receive the session
  identity only, never the token.
- structuredSessionChildIdentityEnv is gone; the seal is the only way to
  build a child's identity env, and tests go through it.
- A launch's environment is the runtime's resolveAgentEnvironment, so the
  base-plus-overlay rule exists once.
- Claude's connection test now covers a non-empty envToDelete applied
  after the inherited env is merged.

No change to any spawned child: the parity snapshot is unchanged.

* ci: run the login-shell contract job for the renamed child-env seal

The seal moved from structured-session-child-identity-env to
structured-session-child-env, but the PR job classifier still listed the old
path, so a change to only the seal would skip the live login-shell contract
job. The prefix now covers the seal, its test and its test support (which
the login-shell harness imports).

Jinwoo Hong 8b2a5e45f1 Re-land Claude per-account folders (#24434, #26405) with the upgrade and proxy fixes (#26801)
* Revert "Revert Claude per-account folders (#24434, #26405) before release (#26638)"

This reverts commit 9ca9b4e36b.

* Move the terminal daemon protocol to 44 for the re-landed claude function

v43 daemons (the revert) lack the claude account function, so new terminals must not reuse them. v42 and v43 stay attachable.

* Move the local build compatibility contract to daemon protocol 44

* Point the old-terminal test at daemon protocol 44

* Claude accounts re-land: never sign anyone out, keep proxies working, accounts mirror ~/.claude (#26769)

* Run a Claude account on System default until it has its own login

An account saved before per-account folders has no login in its folder. While System default (~/.claude, or the user's own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR) is signed in to the same email, the router sends every launch there and writes that choice into the pointer file, so nobody is logged out by the update. Once the account signs in to its own folder, the next launch uses it. The WSL router follows the same rule with the guest's ~/.claude.

* Refresh each Claude account folder from ~/.claude before every launch

~/.claude (or the user's own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR) is now the master copy. Each account folder gets its whole settings.json, including the proxy address and its key, and every .claude.json key except the login, Claude's account caches and install ids, so first-run questions are not asked again. Every other top-level entry is linked (folders) or copied (files), except Claude's per-folder daemon, jobs, live sessions, login files and throwaways. sessions is no longer shared, and an earlier link is undone.

The refresh runs before every Claude Orca starts, for each new terminal and on account switch. Orca never writes back to ~/.claude. The ledger that tracked selective sharing is gone.

* Route chat auth and unselected-account usage through the Claude router

Chats decided whether to drop inherited Anthropic auth from the selection alone, so an account running on System default lost the user's own key. They now ask the router, as terminals, AI commit messages, automations and usage already do. Usage for an unselected account is read where its launches would run. A test reads every entry point through the fallback and fails if a launch path outside the router reads the Claude selection or builds an account folder. The router's two launch errors move to their own file to keep it under the line limit.

* Show Claude account sign-in prompts only when an account cannot run

With the fallback, an account System default is signed in to already works, so:
- The one-time "Finish setting up your Claude accounts" toast is gone.
- Accounts System default covers no longer need a sign-in: no Sign in in the status bar menu or Settings, and they can be selected.
- The old-terminal banner shows only when claude in that terminal would run a different account than the selected one, and asks again after a switch. Its wording is unchanged.

The retired toast's saved flag stays in the paired-client schema so an older client's write is still accepted. The email comparison moves beside the login reader to keep the router under the line limit.

* Keep the user's shell Anthropic auth on Claude account launches

A signed-in account's launches used to drop ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN and CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN from the inherited environment while ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL passed through, so a proxy set in the shell got the subscription login and answered 401. Host launches on an account now keep the shell's auth with its address, as System default does. Chats still name the account kind in a failed sign-in, now from the router rather than from whether auth was dropped.

* Share from ~/.claude only what Claude itself would seed into a new folder

The deny list missed much of Claude's runtime state, so tokens, locks and live files such as .session_ingress_token, server-sessions.json and remote-control were copied or linked over each account's own every launch. The list now mirrors the one Claude uses when it seeds a fresh config folder from ~/.claude: its runtime entries, every hidden entry, daemon files and agent memory. teams, ide, downloads and scratch are on it, so they stay per folder.

* Merge trusted folders and MCP servers into an account instead of replacing them

Each refresh replaced the account's projects and mcpServers with ~/.claude's, so folder trust and allowed tools recorded only in the account were lost, and a refresh landing between Orca's folder-trust write and Claude's start brought the trust dialog back. Both are now merged per folder path or server name: ~/.claude wins for entries it has, the account keeps the rest, and a folder trusted in the account stays trusted. Both writers take Claude's lock on the file, so the order no longer matters.

* Require the same organization before System default stands in for an account

The fallback compared emails only, so one email saved for two organizations made both accounts run on whichever organization System default was signed in to. When the saved account and System default's login both name an organization, it must now match too, on the host and in WSL, and the old-terminal banner uses the same comparison. The saved-account lookup the three checks repeated is now one helper.

* Treat v42 terminals as having the claude account function

v42 daemons shipped the same claude function and pointer path as v44, so claude in those terminals already follows the selected account. The old-terminal banner now shows only for daemons before v42 and for v43, the revert, which dropped the function.

* Fail the routing test when a new module resolves the claude binary

The census only caught code that read the Claude selection, not a new launcher that runs claude without asking the router. A second check now lists every module that resolves the claude binary or loads the Agent SDK, each with why it is routed, and fails on any new one, or on a listed one that no longer matches.

* Skip the account refresh on launches that run on System default

A launch that falls back to System default never uses the account folder, so starting a setup for it on every launch was wasted work. Account switches still set the folder up for a later sign-in.

* Give a terminal opened before the login shell's env only the account pointer

At startup, a pane could be routed before the login shell reported the user's own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, so the fallback compared against ~/.claude.json instead. Until that env arrives a pane gets only the pointer, and the pointer is rewritten once it does, so claude typed there reads the right folder. The recent claude --version answer moves beside the version probe to keep the router under the line limit.

* Drop the chat-only Anthropic auth stripping and override refusal

Chats no longer drop the shell's Anthropic auth on any account, so the chat launch's override refusal and the policy's stripAuthEnv could only be reached from test fixtures. The structured auth policy is now just which login a failed sign-in names. Terminals keep their refusal, which still guards WSL launches; the failure reason stays in the shared vocabulary for older peers.

* Publish a new account state file whole

The first .claude.json write went straight to the target, so a crash mid-write could leave Claude a truncated state file. It is now written to a staged file and linked into place without replacing one Claude created meanwhile.

* Read an unselected WSL account's usage where the WSL router would run it

Usage for an unselected WSL account read its saved folder directly, so an account the guest's ~/.claude covers showed no usage, and the read bypassed the router. It now asks the WSL router, after the same check that the distro is already running.

* Keep the shell's Anthropic auth when the claude function runs an account

The claude shell function (POSIX, fish and PowerShell) unset ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN, AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK and auth-like ANTHROPIC_CUSTOM_HEADERS before running Claude in an account folder, so a proxy set in the shell lost its key while keeping its address. It now only sets CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR and Orca's marker, as on System default. Protocol 44 is unreleased, so no new bump; the shell-wrapper snapshots are regenerated.

* Never drop the user's Anthropic auth from a Claude launch

Orca's launches stripped ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN, CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN, AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK and auth-like ANTHROPIC_CUSTOM_HEADERS for WSL terminals, terminal splits and through the preparation's stripAuthEnv flag, and refused a launch whose agent env set them. If the user's shell overrides the login, that is their setup: every launch now keeps it, on accounts, System default and WSL alike. The flag, the strip paths and the override refusal are gone; the refusal's reason stays in the shared vocabulary so older peers still decode it.

Orca's own process env and the claude --version probe still drop these variables: they are Orca's, not the user's launch.

* Leave out of an account's state everything Claude resets when it signs out

The .claude.json copy left out the login and keys matching cache patterns, but still carried account state such as additionalModelOptionsAnsweredAt, artifactRosterDenied, lastSeenOrgDefaultUpdatedAt and the subscription notices. The copy now leaves out the exact keys Claude resets on logout, beside the install ids, Console API key and first-token date; the cache patterns stay for account caches logout does not reset. Onboarding is still copied.

* Judge an old terminal's Claude banner by the pane's own runtime

The banner compared every old pane with the host selection and showed whenever only a WSL account was selected, so old host panes showed it with nothing to say and old WSL panes were judged by the host's account. The pane now names its runtime: a host pane is compared with the host selection, a WSL pane with its distro's selection through the WSL router, and a pane whose runtime is unknown, or with no account selected for it, stays hidden.

* Leave an account's settings file alone when only Orca's hooks differ from the default home's

* Reread a WSL account's Claude state only when the file changes

* Move tests merged from main onto the account-only Claude auth policy

Brennan Benson 6ba86414bf Show model and effort choices for every agent before its session starts (#26407)
* feat(native-chat): one saved model catalog for every structured agent

Every agent registration now declares how its models are listed without a
session (a probe, or explicitly none). Probes share one supervised runner
(15 s budget, bounded output, teardown on every path). Grok lists from
initialize (or x.ai/models/list), OpenCode from models --verbose, Pi from
--list-models; Claude moves onto the shared runner. ACP option reads no
longer copy the running model's effort menu or selection onto every model.
Desktop and phone pickers read the same catalog for every agent, with a
non-pickable provider-default model pill before any list exists.

* fix(native-chat): host names a listing's configured model; live listings saved for every agent

- The catalog answer carries an optional listingNamesConfiguredModel field, set
  per registration (Codex, Grok) and per workspace; pickers name the listed
  default from it instead of a Codex-only client flag (older hosts fall back).
- Grok, OpenCode and Pi live option reads save their model list through one
  host step, keeping the account's known default and per-model efforts.
- Phone reads the host catalog like the desktop and seeds every agent.
- Saved picks accept any known agent id (OpenCode, Pi).
- ACP agents with no session-free listing register as unavailable; Grok's live
  effort menu falls back to the session's when the advertised one is empty.

* fix(native-chat): discovery and live listings kept apart; every agent's live listing saved by the host; phone-created chats name their model

* fix(native-chat): phone new-chat mark clears on the chat's first live answer; Claude's startup listing reaches the host catalog

* fix(native-chat): live-listing type lives beside the catalog entry so wire types don't pull the store's persistence into the phone

* fix(native-chat): the model picker never waits on a listing; a first listing lands in place

* feat(native-chat): the host lists every agent's catalog ahead of use and traces each listing

* feat(native-chat): a new Claude chat names the model and effort its config resolves to

* test(native-chat): catalog service fakes gain prewarm

* test(native-chat): prewarm span recorder without a type assertion

* fix(native-chat): project agent config overrides the account default only when it sets a model or effort

A committed .claude/settings.json for permissions or hooks, or the settings.local.json Claude writes on always-allow, no longer hides the configured Claude model in that project. Unreadable config still counts; Codex config.toml follows the same rule.

* test(native-chat): the Codex picker read and the launch it starts resolve one account key, through the real resolvers

Runs resolveHostCodexHomePathForLaunchReadOnly and prepareCodexRuntimeHomeForLaunch as the runtime service wires them, for the system account on the real home, on the shared runtime home, and a managed account. Also scopes the prewarm suite to agents in use.

* fix(native-chat): Claude's configured model and effort are saved together behind the project check; prewarm lists only agents in use and stops with its host

A live Claude chat no longer stamps its effort onto the account catalog; the effort travels with the configured default, which a no-pick chat whose config resolves to no listed model now forgets. Prewarm lists agents with a saved catalog or a chat, and host teardown (quit included) starts no queued listing and stops running ones through an abort signal the listing runners honor.

* test(native-chat): new catalog tests use typed hoisted state and type-only namespace imports

* test(native-chat): a prewarm probe sets and clears the sign-in verdict like a read's, and re-checks an aged one beside a fresh catalog

* fix(native-chat): an aged sign-in verdict re-probes only from probe paths, not a Codex chat's picker

The main merge put the held-verdict check into store.shouldRefresh, which also gates
the live Codex picker. A chat's own listing never clears the verdict, so a signed-out
Codex whose chat works re-listed model/list on every picker read. shouldRefresh is
back to main's rule; the catalog read's probe and prewarm ask probeDue instead.

* fix(native-chat): Claude project settings with an effort cap, a main-thread agent or an Anthropic cloud provider count as an override

maxEffortLevel clamps every effort including the model default, and agent applies that
agent's model (both from the bundled SDK settings type). CLAUDE_CODE_USE_ANTHROPIC_AWS
and CLAUDE_CODE_USE_ANTHROPIC_GOOGLE_CLOUD sit in the SDK's provider-switch list beside
Bedrock and Vertex. A project that sets only these no longer shows, or saves as the
account default, the account's model or effort.

* refactor(native-chat): the catalog store's picker waiters live in their own module

No behavior change: pendingListing and the waiter notifications move as they were,
which keeps the store under its line limit for the fixes that follow.

* fix(native-chat): changing an agent's command or environment re-lists its catalogs and re-checks its notice

The settings change called prewarm, but prewarm skipped any catalog still fresh (the
catalog key is agent + account, not the command), and a held "not installed" verdict
kept its 30-second window. The change now marks that agent's catalogs due and ages its
held verdicts, so the prewarm it triggers re-lists them and re-checks the notice. Only
agents whose command or env actually changed are touched.

* test(native-chat): the sign-in notice tests check the model picker is really usable

They checked only that a model entry existed, which a disabled or empty pill also
passes. They now check it is settable, carries no disabled reason, and offers the
catalog's or the seed's model.

* fix(native-chat): a probe the host stops keeps the held notice reason, and a stopped prewarm reads nothing

A probe aborted because the host is going away says nothing about the account, so it
no longer replaces a held sign-in or not-installed reason with a plain failure. A
prewarm after stop returns before reading chat records.

* test(codex): the catalog account-key test uses the runtime's real Codex launch-home resolvers

The resolvers move to codex-launch-preparation as one export the runtime service
spreads, so the test runs exactly what the runtime is handed instead of a copy.

* feat(native-chat): keep each host's saved model lists in the renderer

A chat picker could only learn the host's saved model list by reading it
after it mounted, so its first frame was a guess. The renderer now keeps
the host's answers per host and agent: this machine's lists are read once
its runtime answers, for the agents its chats were used with; a paired
host's again when this client regains contact; and an account or launch
setting change drops this machine's lists. Every entry is a host answer.

* fix(native-chat): render the model pills once, from the host's list

A new chat's composer painted its first frame from the built-in model list:
a saved pick that list lacks (Claude's `opus[1m]`) showed as a raw id with
no effort pill, then jumped to "Opus (1M context) · High" when the host's
list landed. Every new chat painted a guess and then corrected it.

Now the first frame reads the host's saved list the renderer already holds,
so it is the final frame. Without one, the quiet "Model" placeholder stands
until the host answers; a host with nothing saved makes the built-in list
usable, naming nothing, until its listing lands. A saved pick is named only
from a host or session list that names it. The phone follows the same rule
and keeps the host's list across a new fence.

* feat(native-chat): answer a saved-only model catalog read

The app could preload a host's saved model lists only for agents with a
saved pick, because the catalog read starts a listing (spawns the agent's
CLI) when nothing is saved. Grok, OpenCode and OMP chats with no saved pick
were never preloaded, so their pickers showed "Model" before the host's list.

`agentSession.modelCatalog` now takes `savedOnly`: the host answers from
what it saved (the entry, configured default and held reason) and starts,
joins or re-checks no listing. Its params are strict, so the host
advertises `agent-session.model-catalog.saved-only.v1` and clients send it
only to hosts that do.

An answer also says when its named default holds in every workspace (Grok
reads no project config for its model), so a new chat in any workspace can
use it on its first frame.

OMP stays without a session-free listing: `omp models --json` lists every
model without the `enabledModels` filter its chats apply.

* fix(native-chat): preload every registered agent's saved model list

Grok, OpenCode and OMP chats painted the "Model" placeholder, then the
host's pills, because the app preloaded only agents with a saved pick.

Now the app reads every agent a host registered through the saved-only
read: this machine once its runtime and agents are known, a paired host at
connect and on each reconnect, and this machine again after an account or
agent-setting change. A host that does not advertise the saved-only read
keeps the earlier rule (saved picks only; a paired host's answered agents).
An agent the host saved nothing for stays unknown. An answer sent before
the host's lists were dropped is not recorded.

* test(native-chat): drop a type assertion from the snapshot sync test

* fix(native-chat): learn an ACP agent's default from a chat started with no pick

Grok's session-free listing named the model `initialize` computed (grok-4.7), but chats ran
another (grok-4.6), so a new chat painted 4.7 and then jumped. The listing no longer names a
default; a new ACP session with no model pick reports what it runs, and the host saves that as
the account's configured default behind the workspace check. A catalog read waits for a
recording still in flight, so the chat's own follow-up read names it.

* feat(native-chat): check OpenCode and OMP project config before naming their default

OpenCode reads opencode.json(c) and .opencode/ in every ancestor of the workspace; OMP merges its
.omp settings and other agents' project settings. A workspace whose config sets a model, effort
or provider key (or can't be parsed) names no default; any other lets a no-pick chat's model
become the account's default, so the next new chat names it on its first frame.

* fix(native-chat): re-read the host's list once a no-pick chat reports its model

The renderer kept the answer it read before the chat started, so the next new chat's first frame
still named no model. A new chat that named no model reads the host's list again once it reports
what it runs; a default no workspace can replace also serves chats in other worktrees.

Jinwoo Hong 9ca9b4e36b Revert Claude per-account folders (#24434, #26405) before release (#26638)
Users with a saved Claude account were signed out of every Claude feature in Orca until they signed in again, and proxy setups (API key plus ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL) got 401s after signing in. Reverting before release to rework the upgrade path. The terminal daemon protocol moves forward to 43 so dev builds' v42 daemons with the claude function are not reused; v41 and v42 stay attachable. Nothing is deleted: per-account folders are left unused and the old saved-account store was never touched.

Brennan Benson 5252884a9c Native chat: say when Codex is signed out or the agent isn't installed, without disabling Send (#25666)
* fix(native-chat): disable Send for unavailable agents

* test: update sign-in copy expectations

* fix: show automatic chat availability only on Send

* fix: keep signed-out evidence when a live session lists models

* refactor: split Send availability presentation and tests

* refactor(native-chat): keep the sign-in verdict on the catalog's failure record

The probe's "signed out" / "CLI missing" verdict now lives on the account's
existing model-catalog failure record instead of two extra maps, with the
failure TTL as its only lifetime:

- Only the probe sets or clears the verdict; a chat's own model listing
  (which works while signed out) never clears or renews it. An aged-out
  verdict makes the next read re-probe, however fresh the catalog.
- A healthy fresh catalog is no longer re-probed every 30 s; it keeps the
  normal 10 min fresh window. A Claude start refused as signed out ages the
  catalog so the next read re-probes.
- A waiting picker again answers from whichever catalog lands first and never
  waits on a probe. A read that still owes the probe's verdict says so, and the
  composer waits for it once with the new optional waitForAvailability param.
- The open-time start-failure line and its transcript row are hidden only
  while Send is disabled for the same reason; otherwise they show as before.
- A host verdict lifetime longer than the client's hold is clamped, not
  dropped. The catalog read watches only the account settings and the paired
  host's contact instead of every store write.

* fix(native-chat): one send-gate rule, and a missing CLI as its own failure

- The sign-in/CLI verdict is gated once where the session hands it to the
  composer: while a turn runs it neither shows nor refuses, so a follow-up
  queues as before; goal mode is held by the same gate. The start-failure line
  and row hide only while that same value is up.
- A start whose CLI was never found (a direct spawn's ENOENT, or the one a
  provider supervisor reports) is now a `cliMissing` failure with the disabled
  Send's sentence, instead of a generic "couldn't start" beside it. An older
  client shows the host's sentence for the new kind.
- Signed-out words for a slash command keep "Run /x again".
- The Claude catalog reads its models only from the reply to its own
  list_models request, never from the initialize reply.
- The Codex probe lists models while its account check runs; a signed-out
  verdict still wins.
- The missing-executable check moves to provider-process, out of native chat.

* test(native-chat): signed-out command failures name the command to run again

* fix(native-chat): probe the Codex home a launch would read

- Before the catalog probe's read-only app-server reads Orca's shared Codex
  home, it runs the same sync a launch and the usage poll run, so a
  `codex login` made in ~/.codex is seen at once instead of leaving
  "Run codex login" up until something else re-syncs (forever on a headless
  host). Per-account homes are left alone.
- A "no account" answer counts as signed out only when the home's auth.json is
  absent or holds no credential; one caught mid-write by a token refresh, or
  holding a credential, is unknown.

* test(codex-accounts): type the node:os mock with a type import

* fix(native-chat): keep the sign-in verdict until a newer answer replaces it

- No gap while signed out: the host serves an aged verdict while the probe that
  re-derives it runs, and the composer never clears its last answer before a
  read; only an answer without a verdict, an error, lost contact or an account
  change does. Send stays disabled with its reason through every re-check.
- After sign-in the stale "isn't signed in" start-failure line stays hidden:
  a probe that found the account fine now says so (`accountVerified`), and the
  line shows only when the host has no answer at all.
- A Claude start refused as signed out, or any start whose CLI was never
  found, is recorded as that home's verdict, and the chat reads it once when
  that start failure arrives.
- The re-probe mark is read only where the catalog read starts its probe, so a
  Codex chat's own picker no longer re-lists for it on every read.
- Choosing an account or signing in again in Accounts settings re-derives the
  verdict at the next read; the account key now compares settings by value.
- A re-read that brings an identical catalog keeps the option state, so focus
  re-reads re-render nothing.

* fix(native-chat): Codex's signed-out words name only the step that unblocks this chat

A chat is pinned to the Codex home it started in, so choosing another account
in Codex Accounts settings never unblocks it. The system-account sentence now
says only to run `codex login`, in every locale.

* refactor(native-chat): give an account's sign-in status its own owner

The sign-in verdict lived inside the model catalog's failure records, so
the store needed guards for who wrote a failure, which listing may clear
it, and whether a verdict was served while re-probing. Each guard fixed one
way a chat's own listing or an older probe overwrote the account's answer.

The answer now lives in AgentAccountStatuses: one in-memory, capped status
per account home (ready, not signed in, or CLI missing). Only the
session-less probe, a refused start and an account change write it. A
blocked answer older than 30 s, or one an account change marked, makes the
next read start the probe whatever else is listing, and it is served until
that probe answers. Older evidence never replaces newer. The catalog's
failure code is main's again, and agent-model-catalog-failures.ts is gone.

The wire carries one optional `availability` field in place of
`unavailable` and `accountVerified`. The renderer holds its answer per
host, agent and chat, re-reads only on that agent's account inputs, and
re-reads on a timer only while blocked. After an account change, Send
stays disabled with the previous words until the re-probe answers, then
changes once. Account switches and re-sign-ins mark the status before the
settings change a chat's read follows.

* fix(native-chat): re-derive the sign-in answer after an account change mid-probe, and back off while blocked

Round-4 review findings on the account status owner:

- An account switch or re-sign-in made while a probe was running left the
  old answer up for up to 30 s: the next read joined that probe, whose
  answer was then dropped as older than the change. A read now chains
  exactly one fresh probe after a probe that began before the change.
- Removing the selected Claude account swapped another sign-in into the
  shared config dir without marking the answer; it now marks it first.
- Evidence was ordered by wall-clock time, so a clock that stepped back
  froze a blocked answer. It is now ordered by a sequence and aged on a
  monotonic clock; a negative age reads as due.
- A chat left open while signed out started a CLI probe every 30 s.
  Probes that keep finding the same block now space out (30 s, 60 s,
  2 min, 4 min, then every 5 min), carried to the client as recheckInMs.
  An account change or a different refusal starts the hold over.
- The renderer dropped no settled wait from its leave set; it now does.
- A failed Claude probe logged its whole stdout, which now includes the
  initialize reply naming the account. Control replies are dropped from
  the log and the failure message.
- The account services take the status re-check as an injected
  onSignInChanged hook instead of importing the native-chat store.
- Imports moved below file headers; comments no longer say "ready"
  means re-checked after the failure.

* test(claude-accounts): say why the runtime-auth fakes are cast where the hook was added

* fix(native-chat): type the held-answer handle as the account status

* fix(native-chat): re-check a block when someone returns, and catch an account change during a home's first probe

Round-5 review findings:

- After a chat sat blocked for a few minutes, the backoff made every
  read wait out a hold of up to 5 minutes, so someone who ran `/login`
  or `codex login` and came back still saw Send disabled for minutes.
  The backoff now applies only to the client's own timer read, which
  it marks with an optional `scheduledRecheck` param. A read from
  someone looking (window focus, the pane becoming visible, a new chat,
  a start failure) re-probes once the block is older than 30 s. The
  param is sent only on that timer, which only a blocked `availability`
  answer arms, so a host that predates the param never receives it.
- An account change made during a home's first probe marked nothing,
  because only existing statuses were marked, so the old account's
  answer was written as current. Each agent's last account change is
  now one sequence number that every status and running probe is
  compared against; statuses are no longer mutated in place.
- Removing an account that nothing had selected no longer re-checks.

* refactor(native-chat): keep the sign-in and missing-CLI words in their own module

Main's retry wording pushed the failure-words table past its line budget.

* refactor(native-chat): build the structured chat's view session in the view-state module

Main's send-reveal work brought NativeChatStructuredSession.tsx and the
session controller to their line budgets.

* fix(native-chat): keep a stated start line hidden through a running turn, and re-probe an account changed mid first probe

- A chat whose open-time start failed signed out had that line hidden
  while the host said the same. When a new signed-out answer landed
  during a running turn, the line came back for the whole turn: the
  hide read Send's gate, which a running turn suspends. The hide now
  reads the host's answer itself (blocked for the same reason, or
  ready); Send's gate still steps aside while a turn runs. Both are
  views of the one answer the session holds.
- An account change during a home's first probe dropped that probe's
  answer but left nothing to re-check the new account, and the picker's
  reply said no probe was pending, so the chat stayed unknown until the
  catalog aged out. A read now chains one fresh probe whenever the
  running probe began before the change, and its reply says that probe
  is still owed so the client asks once more for its verdict.
- The client's timer read no longer carries `scheduledRecheck`. The
  timer already fires only when the host's backed-off `recheckInMs`
  says, which is past the 30 s after which any read re-probes, and
  every answer re-arms it. One fewer strict-schema param.

* build(cli): typecheck the missing-executable check the provider process now imports

Main's #25753 added managed-provider-process.ts to the CLI project, which
imports this PR's provider-executable-missing.ts.

* fix(native-chat): disable Send with the fix when Claude or Codex is signed out or missing

What you see: in a native Claude or Codex chat whose CLI is signed out, or not installed on the
computer running the chat, Send is disabled and its tooltip (hover or keyboard focus) says how to
fix it, in words that match the account ("Codex isn't signed in. Run `codex login`.", "This
Claude account isn't signed in. Sign in again in Claude Accounts settings.", "Claude isn't
installed on the computer running this chat."). A message refused after sending gets the same
words. On desktop the open-time "Chat could not be started" line, its Retry and its transcript row
no longer repeat these two reasons, unless a message of yours is still waiting on that start.
An unknown answer never disables Send, and while a turn runs Send stays Stop and Enter queues.

How: the host's existing session-less model-catalog probe also says why no chat can start.
Claude's probe child sends initialize before list_models and applies the rule chat start already
uses (token source none with no API key); Codex's probe asks account/read beside model/list; a
spawn that finds no executable is "CLI missing". The probe's failure record in the catalog store
carries that reason, and every catalog reply carries it as an optional `unavailable` field. Only
a probe writes or clears it: a live chat's own listing (which a signed-out Codex still answers)
never does. It lasts the store's 30 s failure lifetime; after that the next read starts or joins
the probe, serving the held reason meanwhile, and only a read that already asks to wait gets the
probe's answer. A change to the managed-account settings expires it. Before probing the shared
Codex mirror home, the probe runs the same sync a launch does. The renderer keeps the latest
answer until the next one replaces it, and only while blocked re-reads on window focus and when
the chat gains focus. No status store, timers or new request params.

* fix(native-chat): no picker loading while Send re-checks a sign-in, and plain keyboard focus on the disabled Send

A chat whose account is signed out and has no model list no longer shows the model picker as
loading each time it re-checks the sign-in after 30 s: the re-check is for Send, so a reply that
already carries the verdict ends the picker's wait. The disabled Send's wrapper takes keyboard
focus (so its tooltip opens) without becoming a second button; the inner button keeps its label.
Trims tests that repeated rules other tests already prove.

* fix(native-chat): lift the Send gate whenever Stop shows, including while a queued card is about to send

The composer shows Stop while the host's queue is about to send its next card, but the sign-in
gate stayed on in that window, so Enter was refused with no message.

* fix(native-chat): never disable Send for a sign-in or missing-CLI verdict; show a dismissible notice instead

The host's pre-send check can be wrong while the chat would work (saved
Arguments it never sees, project settings it can't read, gateways that
accept a signed-out Codex), and a disabled Send left no way past it.

- Delete the Send gate: the composer, Enter and goal mode no longer read
  the verdict, and the Send tooltip reason and focusable wrapper go back
  to main.
- Show Codex not-signed-in and Claude/Codex not-installed as one entry in
  the chat's existing notice card. Dismissed per verdict; shows again
  when the verdict changes or clears and returns; steps aside when the
  failed start (launch line or latest failed-start row) says the same.
- Claude: drop the probe's signed-out verdict (initialize-on-probe stdin,
  request-id filtering, control-reply log scrubbing). The chat start's
  refusal, with its account kind, is the only Claude sign-in signal.
  Missing-CLI from the probe stays.
- Restore the failed-start line and transcript row for these causes
  (no more hiding on desktop) and drop the chat-root focus re-check; a
  window-focus re-read stays while a notice is showing.

* fix(native-chat): re-check the notice's reason after a chat starts, keep a signed-out Codex's model list

Review round 1 of the notice rework.

- A chat that proves its start (at acquire, or on its later "started"
  event) marks the catalog's held reason for that account due, so the
  next read re-probes instead of trusting it until the TTL; the chat
  re-reads when a turn starts or ends while a notice shows.
- The Codex probe keeps a model list it got beside a signed-out reason,
  so a gateway user with a wrong verdict keeps the picker list.
- Failure records move to their own module; an expired failure with no
  reason is dropped, and expiry drops reason-less failures.
- Notice: any verdict change resets the dismissal; signed-out is
  Codex-only; the say-once rule ignores a failed start a turn has run
  past.
- Missing-CLI copy: "{{agent}} wasn't found on the computer running this
  chat. Install it, or check its Command in Settings → Agents." (6
  locales).

* fix(native-chat): only an acquiring start re-checks the catalog reason; drop the unreachable Claude filter

Review round 2 of the notice rework.

- A re-attach to a live child proved nothing new, so only an attach that
  acquired a child which proved its start marks the reason due.
- Reword: a start proves the program exists; for a Codex sign-in it only
  prompts an earlier re-check.
- Drop the notice's Claude signed-out filter: no host sends that verdict.
- Tests: a re-attach does not notify; a turn ending re-reads once more.

* fix(native-chat): never newly show a catalog reason the host is still re-checking

After signing in to Codex, a new chat flashed the old "isn't signed in"
notice for about half a second: past its 30 s lifetime the host answers a
plain read with the held reason while its probe re-checks. A chat now
adopts such a reason only when it already shows it; otherwise the joined
read's answer decides.

* test(native-chat): follow main's harness and the clearer Claude sign-in words after the merge

* test(native-chat): run the start-proof catalog test in the Node runtime project with the other SQLite host tests

Brennan Benson 8fdad2a3af fix(claude): activate account profiles and remove credential replay (Step 4 of 4) (#24434)
Each saved Claude account now runs in its own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR folder, so Claude renews each login itself and switching no longer replays a copied credential. A claude shell function routes every launch to the selected account; the terminal daemon protocol moves to 42 so new terminals get it. After updating, each saved account signs in once: typed claude shows Claude's own sign-in, old terminals show an in-app banner, chats and the status-bar menu offer Sign in, and a one-time toast explains it. Orca prints nothing into terminals.

Brennan Benson c71601f51c Add Pi structured native chat through its RPC mode (#25851)
* End a running call as its turn's journal row ends

A call still running when its turn ends takes the state of that turn's
row: a row another writer settled first (a person's Stop) stands, so its
calls read interrupted whatever the provider's later end reports. The
no-ending path that settled calls from the Stop row is gone, since a Stop
now leaves running calls to the provider. Adds the two Spanish strings.

* Say why a Grok turn failed, and keep task rows in Grok's own words

A failed Grok turn ended with no reason on screen: the translator dropped
every copy of Grok's message. The failed turn now gets one status row in
Orca's existing "provider did not accept this message" words with Grok's
reason, read from whichever copy arrives first (the given-up retry, the
turn's end, the prompt's completion notice, or the prompt's error answer);
later copies only fill a reason the row still lacks.

A running background command no longer reads "Background task <id>
started": a task's summary is mapped only once it has settled. A monitor
stays a monitor when the agent reads its output: a frame that names no
kind keeps the known one, and a "[monitor" command is a monitor.

A prompt's turn is marked started, so a late frame for an ended prompt
neither reopens it nor becomes the active turn. A tool's turn is held in
one place at a time.

* Read a monitor from Grok's exact output prefix

* Word a failed Grok turn in Grok's own text, not as a refused message

A turn that started and then failed was told "The provider did not accept
this message", Orca's sentence for a message refused before its turn. The
row now reads as a Codex turn-ending error does: an error status row with the
provider's own words. With no words, the dialect names the failure ("Grok
ended this turn with an error." / "Grok usage limit reached."), else the
agent's display name does.

* Settle a stopped turn's running call as its turn row ended after a restart too

The restart sweep ended every running call by the death evidence alone, so after
a person's Stop with no proof the child died the call read failed under a turn
that read interrupted. The sweep and the live dead-generation settlement now ask
the same rule the assembler does: a call in a turn already settled ends as that
row ended; only a turn still running leaves its calls to the evidence.

* Keep the dead-generation settlement under the line cap

* Register the ACP schema verify step in the PR preflight phase test

* refactor(agent-session): one required agent registry; declarations admit what they claim

A StructuredAgentRegistry, built once from the {definition, adapter}
registrations, is now a required host dependency and the router routes with
it. The adapter interface loses its optional router-only capabilities?() and
definition?(); every reader (options at rest, thread goal, rewind, the
/compact handover) asks the registry. A live session still narrows rewind
through the adapter, and the host combines declared and narrowed in one
helper. The registry refuses a registration that declares compact, a thread
goal or rewind without the adapter method behind it.

/compact is admitted by the declared capability, so an agent that declares
compact:false gets the commandRefused fact instead of a thrown error.

Also: the cut-turn notice names the agent from the catalog, create-support
builds the account home through agentSessionAccountHome, and the turn
status text older clients read names the session's agent instead of
defaulting to Codex (Claude/Codex text unchanged).

* Read ACP permissions, session events and prompt errors through the protocol client's own types

The translator now reads a permission request with the client's lenient reader, a session update
with its session-event reader, and takes only the agent's own error answer as a failed prompt's
reason, so an Orca-side error never reads as the provider's words. Tests cover protocol values
newer than this build.

* refactor(agent-session): the router applies the declared rewind itself

The router holds the registry, so its rewindSupport answers the owner's
declared rewind narrowed by the adapter, in one place no reader can bypass.
The host-side combining helper is gone; readers ask the adapter they hold.

* test(agent-session): register the agents the merged-in tests now need

The adoption replay test builds its host over this build's registered agents
instead of an adapter definition method, and the stored-form test passes the
stored agents the record guard now requires.

* chore(agent-session): the registry is the one lookup; drop the test-only empty capability record

* fix(agent-session): keep "dismiss all" restart offers dismissed for the desktop

The desktop renderer calls the restart methods as a paired runtime client
without the registered-agents capability, so it was handed a Claude/Codex
audience and its "dismiss all" took the scoped path: no dismissal fence and
no clearing of unwritten teardown witnesses, so a late teardown write could
bring a dismissed offer back.

The audience is now derived against this host's registry: a client that can
show every agent the host registered gets none, and dismisses exactly as
before (one fence for every offer). A client that truly cannot show some
agent still gets a final dismissal for what it sees: each cleared session is
fenced on its own (bounded, superseded by a dismiss-all fence) and only the
witnesses of agents it sees are dropped.

One predicate now answers which agents a client renders, for both tab
projection and restart offers; the Claude capability rule is folded in.

* fix(agent-session): a changed agent definition never hides that agent's chats

A record was readable only if every handle used the transport its agent's
definition declares today, and its account variable was declared by some
registered agent. A later build that drives the same agent over another
protocol, or under a renamed variable, would have set every existing chat of
that agent aside: no tab, no history, no error.

Readability now asks only that the record agree with itself: its agent is
registered, every handle shares one namespace owned by that agent, and the
account variable is a well-formed name. Whether this build can drive it (the
chain's transport is the one the agent speaks, and the account variable is
that agent's own, since it becomes the child's environment) is decided in
performAttach, the one admission every start of every agent passes through,
and refused there as hostUnsupported. A record pinning another agent's
variable is refused the same way rather than passing because some agent
declares it.

* refactor(agent-session): each agent's registration says where it runs and which account it pins

createSupport, create and the model catalog's account read still chose a
location rule and an account resolver by name (Claude, Codex, else none),
so a new agent would have needed a third branch beside the registration
list that already decides storage, routing and publication.

Each runtime registration now carries supportsLocation(location) and
resolveAccountHomePath({ launchEnv, location, purpose, workspacePath }),
and Claude's and Codex's rules move into their entries unchanged: a read
still syncs no home and starts no bridge, a Codex launch still trusts the
workspace first, and WSL locations resolve as before. The list exists
before the host is built, so none of these reads installs the host, and an
agent the list does not hold is answered no without opening the journal.

* test(agent-session): drop a duplicate registry key; keep fences out of the capsule state

A spread input already carries the registry, so the explicit key was
overwritten (TS2783). The session-fence helper now returns only the fence,
not the capsule state it was given.

* fix(agent-session): a scoped dismiss-all persists no per-session fence

The per-session dismissal fence added a forever-persisted capsule field
with an arbitrary cap that served no caller: only the local desktop calls
the restart methods, and on a host whose agents it all shows it gets no
audience and takes the unscoped, fenced dismissal. A scoped dismiss-all
(a caller that cannot show some registered agent) keeps that agent's
offers, clears only its audience's unwritten witnesses, and writes no
fence; a late write from this process is serialized behind it. The field
never left this unreleased branch.

* fix(agent-session): refuse an attach whose agent is not the session's own

The start check judges the record's agent while the router starts the adapter of params.agent, and the attach wire let the two differ. Admission now refuses agent !== provider as requestMalformed, so the agent checked is the agent started. Every host-built attach already sets them equal.

* fix(agent-session): offer to start a chat only when the start would accept it

The restart offer, a failure's retryable flag and the pre-send check asked only whether the adapter runs the chat's location, while the start also refuses a record this build cannot drive; such a chat was offered Resume and its Retry failed forever. One host predicate, hostCanStartRecord (location support and agentDrivesSession), now answers all four; adapterSupportsRecord stays the reader gate, and an undrivable chat's offer is kept, not retired.

* fix(agent-session): the model-catalog probe uses a record's account only if this build drives it

A record-scoped catalog read started the agent's lister under the record's account path whatever variable the record pinned. It now uses that path only when agentDrivesSession holds, and otherwise resolves the account as for a read with no record.

* refactor(agent-session): the record store admits agent ids; comments say where transport is checked

The store only ever asked whether an agent is registered, so its admission list is now the registered ids; the definition is the one home of an agent's transport and account variable. Comments that said the record store checks transport, and one that cited a nonexistent function, now point at agentDrivesSession and the attach admission. The isPersistedAgentSessionRecord(value, agents) call shape and the test fixture the cross-version probe imports are kept.

* docs(agent-session): the record store admits the registered agents' ids

* refactor(native-chat): Grok's registration declares where it runs; ACP no longer borrows Codex's location rule

The rule a self-supervised agent child runs under (this machine, no WSL, Windows only with process
start-time proof) is its own module that Codex and the ACP adapter both use. Grok's registration
takes the full account-home resolver signature, and D3's tests build hosts with the agent registry.

* fix(native-chat): Grok follows the ACP runtime's request contract and the managed process's close

A request the agent or a Stop cancels is answered with the agent's own cancelled reply by the code that
owns it (the runtime no longer answers a silent handler), so a Stop needs no separate decline pass. A
permission answer still being saved when the agent stopped waiting is reported unconfirmed, since the
protocol already answered it cancelled. Cancelling the agent's own turn is the plain cancel. Request
rows are matched under their generation-scoped ids. A refusal's reason comes from the dialect's wording
path. The child drops its own stderr tail and close policy for the managed process's, and a close
whose process tree was not proven gone is reported as the adapter contract asks.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok chat Orca already holds resumes without writing what Grok replays

A chat with a saved Grok session reattaches with session/resume where the agent offers it, else
session/load. Either way the call runs inside the translator's load window, so what Grok sends while
it reattaches (its saved exchange, a task the dead process left running, ended by the restart) opens
no turn and writes no row; only context usage reads on. A reply an Orca or Grok crash cut short is no
longer completed from Grok's saved history: it reads like a Claude or Codex chat's, with the existing
notice. The attach window also closes after a failed attach, and a created session that session/resume
reports missing is replaced like one session/load reports missing.

The replay reconciliation is removed: the lane no longer reads the journal, and D3's replayed-input
grammar test and completed-turn check in the assembler go with it.

* refactor(native-chat): a failed Grok reattach needs no window close of its own; its lane is replaced

* test(native-chat): D3's merged tests use the shipped declarations and the launch options main requires

* fix(native-chat): typecheck fallout of the base merges; any agent's empty chat is reusable

Main's idle-empty-chat lookup and launch join now take any registered agent, as the rest of the
launch path does. The refusal check moved into the prompt turns and the prompt-block conversion beside
the turns that send it, keeping both files in their line limit.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok Stop ends the process once Grok settles its turn; the next send resumes

Grok's session/cancel ends only the running turn: work it already moved to the background keeps
running and can begin a turn of its own after the person pressed Stop. Stop is now a session
boundary, as it is for Claude: the cancel answers open requests and lets Grok end the turn, the host
waits a bounded grace for that, then ends the process; the next send relaunches and resumes.
The adapter's own bounded close of a turn Grok began is gone. Its named-turn check stays: the host
ends the session unless the provider declines a Stop naming a turn that has since ended.

* test(native-chat): a Grok Stop ends the process only after Grok answered the cancel

* fix(native-chat): Steer on a Grok card cancels the running prompt, then sends it

A send that reached Grok while a prompt ran was held in the adapter until that turn ended: Steer
on a queued card took the card out of the host's editable queue and meant 'send after this turn'.
It now cancels the running prompt (session/cancel; the session stays) and sends as the next prompt
once Grok answers the cancel, as the common pattern does; a steer behind another cancels it in
turn, so the last one runs. The adapter holds a send only while that cancel lands, so its general
held-send queue and its holdsDispatch report are gone (every send it holds has its turn open in
the journal). An older client's mid-turn send takes the same path. capabilities.steering is
unchanged and still unread.

* refactor(native-chat): a close or Stop cancels a start through the acquire's own abort signal

The host owns the acquire it runs, so it now owns its cancellation: each attach's acquire gets an
AbortSignal, aborted from outside the session's queue by a close and by a Stop admitted now (the
same admission rule as before). The optional abandonStart adapter hook, the router's fan-out to
every adapter and the ACP adapter's session-keyed start map are gone; the ACP adapter keeps an
unkeyed set of starts only so quit can prove their children gone, and keeps a failed start's
unproven child until its exit is proven.
The hook also let a later close ask that child again. The host now does that from state it holds:
a close of a chat with no live child whose record still names an owner process with no death
evidence asks the adapter to release it. The answer is not recorded as proof (the lease probe
does that), so an owner pid an earlier Orca left is never killed or marked gone. Claude and Codex
ignore the signal and hold no such child; their release is a no-op (tested).

* fix(native-chat): a Grok crash that closes stdout before its exit still ends with Grok's last words

On macOS and Linux the agent's stdout ends before its exit is observed, with or without the
supervisor's EOF forwarding, so the connection's loss closed the journal first and its error text
became the session's ended reason, dropping Grok's stderr. The reason is now read at the proven
exit: the agent's last words when it left any, else why the connection closed. The failure already
carried them. Comments that assumed the exit comes first, that early frames past the cap refuse the
start, and that dispatch re-checks image support are corrected.

* fix(native-chat): nothing Grok sends while a held chat reattaches is written, marked as replay or not

The reattach window relied on the dialect's replay verdict, and Grok's frames read as live unless
they carry isReplay, so an unmarked chat frame during session/resume opened a turn that never
ended. D3 now marks every frame inside the window as replay before the translator reads it, so the
translator keeps only context usage whatever the agent marked; options and commands are still
adopted. The translator's load semantics are unchanged.

* test(native-chat): a Stop after a resume finds no turn an unmarked old reply opened

* test(native-chat): a resumed Grok chat keeps its last context reading; the resume refreshes only the window

* test(native-chat): a Grok background task a Stop ended reads as stopped reporting

* refactor(native-chat): quit's stop of each start answers through one promise kind

* fix(native-chat): quit aborts every start the host has in flight before draining attaches

A Grok that never answered its handshake held quit until the start's own 60 s bound, past the
20 s quit deadline. The host's teardown now aborts each in-flight acquire (and any the drain
still begins), so the adapter's own quit controller and its map of starts are gone: a start
has one canceller, the host's signal.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok start's abort stops reaching its child once the start has returned

The listener stayed on the host's signal until the attach finished committing, so a Close in that
window killed the now-live child behind the host's back and it read as Grok crashing. The start
now detaches it when it ends; a later Close goes through the session's own stop.

* fix(native-chat): a close or Stop during any attach phase stops the start before it launches

The attach began its abort controller only after reconciling leases, resolving recovery and
probing the previous owner, so a close or admitted Stop in those phases reached nothing and Grok
launched anyway. The controller now begins first, and the acquisition checks it before asking the
adapter to start.

* test(native-chat): a close during the attach's owner probe asks no adapter to start

Also renames the close test after the hook it no longer exercises.

* test(native-chat): a close's re-ask closes a Claude or Codex child a failed cleanup left

The re-ask is not a no-op for them: when the adapter still holds the child its cleanup could not
prove gone, the close stops it again as a requested close, and Claude persists the handle of the
conversation it ran so the next send resumes it. Corrects the tests' and comment's wording; the
close awaits the re-ask, bounded by each adapter's kill ladder.

* fix(native-chat): Steer during a turn Grok began itself cancels it and sends once it ends

A send while Grok ran a turn of its own (a background task waking it) went straight to Grok, which
queued it behind that turn where Orca could no longer withdraw it, while Stop treated the same turn
as the running reply. The send now waits as a steer, the turn is cancelled once, and the message
goes when the turn ends; a Stop withdraws it and an exit rejects it as never sent.

* test(native-chat): a steer whose cancel Grok never answers ends Grok and is rejected as never sent

Pins the bounded steer cancel kept from the runtime: past the bound the connection closes, the
running reply reads unverifiable, Grok's end reads as its exit, and the waiting steer is rejected
as never sent.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok crash stays a crash when a stop lands before its exit is proven

After the connection broke and the close could not prove Grok's exit, any later stop Orca asked
for (the next start, a Stop, a Close) marked the child as closed by Orca, so the crash read as a
requested close and Grok's last words were dropped; a send meanwhile was recorded unconfirmed.
The connection loss now decides the cause, and a send on that session is rejected as never sent.

* test(native-chat): fixtures this PR's registered Grok and desktop capability made stale

CI's unit shards failed on tests outside the PR's own lists. Each encodes something this PR changes
on purpose: Grok is now a registered agent (the seam test's unregistered agent is now Cursor); the
desktop now advertises registered agents (the restart-offer tests' older client drops that
capability explicitly); the attach context carries the start's abort controllers (the forget-status
double gains them); and the ACP real-host test rig sends to the host directly (listed beside the
other real-host rig in the send ratchet).

* fix(native-chat): a start quit stops is not the queued message's start failure

With quit now aborting a start it would have waited for, the delivery step recorded the aborted
start as the message's failure ("couldn't restart"). After quit has stopped delivery, the step
leaves the message to quit, which settles it as a close does ("The chat closed before this message
was sent."). The test that pinned quit waiting for that start and stopping its child now pins that
nothing is launched behind quit.

* fix(native-chat): a message sent after a Stop or close aborted a start gets its own start

A start the host aborts (an admitted Stop, a close, or quit) returned its refusal to the delivery
loop, which then rejected whatever was queued at that moment with "couldn't restart", including a
message the user sent after the Stop. The attach now reports that the host aborted it, and the loop
re-derives from the journal instead: what the Stop or close withdrew is already settled, a message
accepted since gets a start of its own, and quit's next step stops the loop. This replaces the
quit-only carve-out with the same rule for every abort and every agent.

* test(native-chat): the message sent after an aborted start is answered, so no settlement outlives the test

* fix(native-chat): a Grok model pick Grok never answers no longer holds Stop or Close

The pick runs on the session's queue. It now registers in the host's out-of-queue
abort registry beside a start, so a close, an admitted Stop or quit abandons it, and
the ACP adapter bounds it at 30 s like Claude and Codex. A late answer is still adopted.

* fix(agent-launch): a phone's launch opens a terminal for an agent whose chat it cannot show

agent.launch now reads the caller's capabilities by the rule tabs and restart offers
use (clientRendersStructuredAgent). A phone without registered-agents.v1 gets Grok as
a terminal again, as on main; the host's own callers and desktop clients are unchanged.

* fix(acp): strip every agent hook variable from the ACP child, from the shared list

ACP_CHILD_ENV_TO_DELETE was a second copy of the hook runtime keys that missed
ORCA_AGENT_HOOK_TRANSPORT; it now spreads AGENT_HOOK_RUNTIME_ENV_KEYS beside the pane
identity keys.

* refactor(native-chat): the mutation context carries the provider-wait registry itself

Keeps the host file within its line limit; one field instead of two closures over it.

* fix(agent-launch): agent.launch.v2 still vouches for Claude and Codex chats

The caller rule from the previous commit also turned Claude and Codex into terminals
for a client advertising only agent.launch.v2, whose contract says it opens a chat
(mobile retry-authority tests). Only an agent beyond those two now needs the client to
read it (clientRendersStructuredAgent); the test fixtures go back to what they were.

* refactor(native-chat): drop saved-history adoption from the timeline assembler

The common pattern discards the history a provider replays while loading a
session, so the assembler has no use for an input.history event.

* refactor(acp): drop session/load history adoption from the translator

The common pattern discards the history an agent replays during session/load,
keeping only what it says about the context window. Remove the adoption path
(acp-history-adoption.ts, the adopt option, and the historical background-task
liveness rewrite it fed) so load replay is always dropped except usage.

* refactor(native-chat): a pending input is only Orca's send now

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: drop the comment naming the
provider's saved message, and make requestedAt required since every pending
input comes from input.accepted.

* test(acp): keep the task-result status table on live frames

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: the result-status mapping was only
tested through adopted history, so run the same table on live frames, and
cover an unmarked task notice during a load being dropped.

* test(acp): a frame helper for a shell command Grok is running

* fix(acp): a Grok crash settles through the host's provider-exit batch, scoped to the turn it ended

A Grok crash ended the journal unverifiable before the adapter reported the exit, so the host's
provider-exit settlement found no running turn and wrote nothing: the adapter's failure (with
Grok's last words) never reached the journal, and a later stale-session pass wrote a bare,
thread-scoped cut-short row, so the partial reply was not folded as Claude's and Codex's are.

At a proven exit the ACP lane now ends its running turn interrupted at the exit instant, as the
host's exit contract expects of a child's own translator (Codex's does the same). When Grok's
stdout closed first (every POSIX crash), the turn is unverifiable only until the exit is proven:
the host's provider-exit settlement now takes the exit as proof naming the child's fence and
revises what that child left unverifiable in the same batch, with the turn-scoped row and the
adapter's failure. Claude and Codex write no unverifiable turn of a live child except a command
whose hand-off is in doubt; that turn is now revised at the exit instead of at the next open.

* test(acp): a crash seen first leaves the host no Grok turn to revise

* refactor(native-chat): what a gone generation left unfinished gets its own module

The settlement file passed 300 lines with the exit-proof revision. The unfinished-work reads
(capture, interrupted-by-the-exit, in-progress) are their own concept and move out unchanged,
apart from the exit proof they now take.

* refactor(native-chat): a watched exit revises what its child left unverifiable without reading Stop marks

An exit's own instant is the turn's end, so the revision needs only each row's fence: the
settlement's journal type gains itemFence alone, and the host test fakes say so.

* test(native-chat): drop the duplicate itemFence on the fake that already had one

* test(claude, codex): an exit whose stdout ended first still reports as it always did

The provider supervisor now ends Orca's stdout when the agent's ends, so on every crash EOF
arrives before the exit is seen. Claude's and Codex's connections report nothing at EOF and
report the exit, with its usual reason, once it is seen.

* fix(acp): reopen a chat with session/load, as the common pattern does

An agent that offers both now reloads its session instead of resuming it; the
reattach window still discards what it replays except context usage.

* fix(acp): drop the 60 s handshake bound; an abort fails the start's waits at once

Neither common design bounds an ACP handshake: Close, Stop and quit end a start
that never answers. The abort now also closes the connection, as a kill there
does, so the start settles even before the child's exit is proven. The
host-stopped start refusal only this bound produced goes with it; the idle
sweep keeps its words.

* fix(acp): a Stop naming an ended turn follows Claude's rule

It still stops nothing while another turn is live, but in the gap before a
follow-up's turn opens, which no client can name, it now stops what is in
flight and the session ends, as a Claude Stop does.

* fix(native-chat): a close no longer re-asks a failed start's unproven child

Neither common design retries that stop at Close, and Orca's Claude contract
re-asks only at the next start and at quit. The ACP adapter keeps the child
until its exit is proven and asks it again there, as Claude does.

* fix(acp): a message sent during a turn the agent began itself goes at once

Both common designs send it straight to the agent with no cancel; only Orca's
own running prompt is steered (cancelled, then re-prompted).

* test(native-chat): dismiss-all through a remote client's audience keeps a newer Orca's offer

Uses an audience production sends (one that cannot show every agent), per review.

* fix(acp): launch Grok as `grok agent stdio`, without the update and leader flags

The common pattern passes neither --no-auto-update, --no-leader nor
GROK_DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER; full access still adds --always-approve.

* fix(acp): an agent that ends its stdout, or answers unreadably, is not a lost connection

As in the common pattern, only a broken stdin (or Orca's own close) ends the
agent; one that closed its output but can still be written to stays until a
Stop, a close or its exit. The provider supervisor goes back to its base
content, so Claude and Codex no longer get the forwarded stdout end either.

* fix(native-chat): a person's close joining a failed one still binds the turn its child end cuts

On main every close of the chat writes its own Stop and settle. Here a later close joins the
first and writes no row, and the first's settle closed when its kill failed, so a turn that opened
in between and was cut by the next close read as failed. A person's close joining a person's close
whose Stop opened a settle now reopens that settle until its attempt is done.

Tests: a close whose kill failed still closes its settle; a turn opened between a failed close and
the next reads as the person's cancellation (each fails without its half of the fix).

* test(native-chat): Grok opens as a chat only behind the structured-chat setting

agent.launch and orchestration worker-start read the same setting as the
renderer route; pin both states for Grok on each. The setting's description no
longer names only Codex and Claude, in every catalog.

* docs(acp): generic ACP comments say what holds for every agent, not Grok

Stop ends the session for every ACP agent, as in the common pattern; the
adoption hook comment goes (adoption is not planned); a failed start's child is
retried at the next start or quit.

* test(claude, codex): type the EOF-before-exit test's streams; the supervisor no longer forwards EOF

The Claude test wrote to the child's stdout and stderr through their Readable
type, which the node typecheck rejects; it now holds its own PassThrough
streams. The comments no longer credit the reverted supervisor change.

* feat(acp): a steer's cancel asks once and never ends the agent

The runtime had one cancel: send session/cancel, wait at most 10 s for Orca's prompt to settle,
then close the connection, which ends the agent. A steer used it too, so a slow agent lost its
process just because the person added a message. requestSteerCancel() now sends session/cancel
once per prompt, cancels the agent's open requests and answers later permissions cancelled, and
never bounds or closes: the prompt's own reply ends it and the steer's prompt follows. cancel()
stays the Stop: bounded, then close. A Stop after a steer still bounds and closes. Both cancel
paths move into acp-prompt-cancel.ts over one cancel channel.

* chore(native-chat): keep the record store and recovery capsule under max-lines after the main merge

* fix(acp): a repeated steer shares the cancel in flight; say what the caller owns

Per review: a second steer before the first write lands returns that write instead of resolving
early. The steer's JSDoc says the wait for the prompt's reply is unbounded and that a prompt that
fails instead must not take the steer until the caller rebuilds the session; the Stop's says a
prompt that settles in time leaves the agent for the Stop's owner to end. The steer test now gives
the runtime a handler that would allow: the open permission's signal aborts and the late one never
reaches it.

* fix(native-chat): drop the stopDelivery the A3 merge doubled

* fix(acp): a steer's cancel asks Grok once and never ends it

A steer now uses D1's notify-only cancel. Two messages sent during a reply Grok began itself
cut that reply, as the common pattern does, and then both run; before, the queued first
message could not answer the bounded cancel and Orca ended Grok although Grok answered.
A Stop keeps the bounded cancel and its 4 s grace.

* fix(acp): a permission Grok asks with no prompt of Orca's running is declined

During a turn Grok began itself nobody asked it to act, so the request is answered
cancelled at once instead of opening a card that waits, as the common pattern does.

* fix(acp): a Grok that dies while starting is reported with its own last words

A dying process's stdout ends before its exit is seen, so the start failed as a closed
connection and Grok's stderr was lost. A start whose connection closed now waits, bounded by
the Stop grace (or a Close/Stop), for the exit before it is told.

* test: a Stop after a steer sends its own cancel; drop the import the A3 merge doubled

* test(native-chat): main's Stop-note test builds its turn context with the agent registry

* test(claude): say why the close test's fake child cast is safe

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity and turn context the current way

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle; the turn context also needs this branch's agent registry.

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity with the opaque handle

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle.

* test(ratchet): require src/main/provider-process now that it has landed

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 and this branch both added the import at different lines; the merge kept both.

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 made the same fix as this branch at a different line; the merge kept both imports.

* feat(native-chat): record a fresh provider conversation that replaced one the agent could not restore

A chat whose saved conversation the agent cannot reopen can now continue in a
fresh one: the handle chain records the new conversation as a creation that
replaces the lost one (which, why, and when), keeping every earlier link.

Rows keep a shape older builds read: the stored chain starts at the latest
replacement and carries the earlier links inside it.

* test(native-chat): build this stack's journal identities with main's opaque provider handle

Main's #24991 replaced the {kind, ...} handle with {transport, agent, nativeId}; three test
files from this stack still wrote the old shape. Same lines the downstream ACP branch uses.

* docs(acp): every reattach drops the agent's replay, not only for a chat the journal holds

* refactor(native-chat): store a replaced conversation flat; refuse it where older builds read the row

Older builds only read Claude and Codex records, so the nested stored form
protected rows no replacement can reach while adding a cap mismatch after a
downgrade. Store the chain as held, refuse a replacement in a Claude or Codex
chain until one has a stored shape older builds read, and refuse a supersession
key on a replacement that names no creation in the chain.

* refactor(native-chat): read hosts' structured agents from the app-shell services

Main grew the startup hydration hook to its line limit; the host agents sync is an app-lifetime subscription like the structured session tabs sync beside it, so it moves there.

* Use current provider handles in transition tests

* Use current provider handles in timeline fixtures

* test(native-chat): prove replacement rows survive downgrade and re-upgrade

* Require the ACP directory in the runtime import check

* test(ratchet): require src/main/acp now that this PR lands it

* feat(acp): a saved session the agent cannot reopen continues in a new one, with one warning row

When session/load (or session/resume) of a saved ACP session fails, the chat starts a new session and records it as a creation that replaces the lost one (#25747's 'replaces' link), and writes one warning row that the agent no longer remembers the earlier messages. A created session the agent reports missing is still superseded silently; a signed-out agent or a start that is over (Close, Stop, a lost agent) still fails the start.

* chore(acp): rewrap the acquire header comment

* test(acp): a start closed while the agent reopens fails without opening or announcing a new session

* Let ACP connections own their supervised agent process

* Preserve ACP cleanup evidence and isolate exit observers

* Expose ACP cleanup observations and type the permission fixture

* refactor(native-chat): the registered-agents capability lives in its own module

Main's growth put protocol-version.ts one counted line over its 300-line limit once the capability
was added; like main's other per-feature capabilities, it now has its own module, and importers read
it from there.

* refactor(acp): one connection owns the Grok process and its protocol

D3 now opens each ACP agent through createAcpAgentConnection (ACP-ALIGN #25810): one object spawns the
process on the execution host, owns its stdio and protocol, and reports its proven exit. It is built and
tracked before the handshake, so a start's abort (Close, Stop, quit) still reaches it, and a failed start
keeps that same connection for the next close to retry rather than spawning another process.

Deleted: the spawnAcpStructuredChild wrapper and its test, the raw-stream runtime assembly, the caller's
exit -> runtime.close wiring, the stdout-EOF heuristic (the connection no longer treats stdout EOF as
exit), and the 10 s steer/Stop cancel bound with requestSteerCancel. Reader control maps to
pauseReading/resumeReading; a close is connection.close after the host's existing 4 s Stop grace.

The adapter owns what the protocol no longer does: one session/cancel per running prompt however many
steers arrive (cleared with that send's settlement, retried after a failed write), and a Stop or steer
answers every open agent request the person has not already answered with the agent's own cancelled
reply. An answer already being saved when the Stop lands is sent.

Tests: blocked cancel write never holds Stop's grace, two quick steers send one cancel, a failed cancel
write is retried, a real process exiting while a child holds its stdout ends the session, and the
existing start-abort, retention, crash, connection-loss and reload-failure suites on the new rig.

* fix(acp): Grok signs in on its own machine with its API key or cached sign-in

When Grok reports that it needs authentication, Orca now names a sign-in method on the machine Grok runs
on, read from the same environment Grok was launched with: xai.api_key when XAI_API_KEY is set there and
Grok offers that method, else cached_token when Grok offers it, else none and the chat keeps the existing
not-signed-in refusal. The rule lives in Grok's launch spec; the adapter applies any agent's rule for new
and reopened sessions through the protocol client's caller-named method (authenticate, then retry once).
No new sign-in UI; interactive methods are never chosen.

* fix(acp): the adapter decides which of Grok's requests reach the person

The turn owner now admits every agent request, permission or question, from its own turn state: a
request reaches the person only while Orca's prompt runs and no steer or Stop is cutting it short (a
question may also come from a turn Grok began itself, until a Stop). Anything else gets the agent's
own cancelled reply and opens no card, so a question arriving after Stop or during a steer never
appears. A steer, like a Stop, withdraws the requests already open; an answer already being saved is
still sent. The protocol client's abort-on-cancel path is no longer used: after the connection
change its request signal aborts only when the connection closes.

* feat(native-chat): add inactive Pi RPC transport foundation

* fix(acp): a plan Grok proposes shows as a plan, with no approval card

When Grok leaves plan mode it asks the client to approve its plan (x.ai/exit_plan_mode). Orca showed a
blocking 'Approve plan / Request changes' card for it; the common pattern has no such gate. Now the
plan goes into the chat's existing Plan row (the plan-document status row Codex and ACP plan updates
already use) and the request is answered at once with 'abandoned' plus feedback telling Grok to stop and
wait for the person's feedback or a request to implement it in a later turn, so nothing is approved on
the person's behalf. Dialects gain settleRequest for requests answered without asking anyone.

* fix(orchestration): worker-start opens a Grok worker in a terminal, as before

With the structured chat setting on, worker-start decided 'structured' for Grok and then the structured
worker factory (Claude and Codex only) refused it, so the start failed; main opened a terminal Grok
worker. Worker-start now decides with no registered agents beyond Claude and Codex, so Grok gets a
terminal worker as before. agent.launch and the app's own launches still open Grok as a structured
chat. Temporary until structured workers take registered agents.

* fix(acp): a prompt answer Orca can't read ends the turn instead of hanging it

A session/prompt rejection that was not the agent's own error answer (an answer that fails Orca's
schema, or one too large to read) left the turn running: the next message became a steer with nothing
to cancel and was never sent or settled, and Stop waited its full grace. As in the common pattern, any
prompt failure now ends the turn as failed (a failed-turn row without words, since none are the
agent's) and settles the send, so the next message goes. Only a closed connection keeps the send
running, for the connection-loss path to settle.

* feat(native-chat): add bounded RPC reading control

* fix(acp): send Grok's prompt-identity extension only to agents that echo it

session/prompt carried _meta {promptId, requestId} for every ACP agent, though only Grok's dialect
echoes it (injectedPromptIdentity). Now only an agent whose dialect declares it gets the extension;
other ACP agents get a plain prompt.

* refactor(native-chat): the registered-agents capability lives in protocol-version again, as on main

This reverts 0ef6d21815. That commit moved the capability to its own module only because main's
protocol-version.ts was then one counted line over its limit; main now defines it there itself within
the limit, and main's new restart test imports it from there. Main's test also reads the desktop's
capability list as an older client; on this branch the desktop advertises registered agents, so its
older client is that list without this one capability.

* test(acp): read the sign-in method with a schema, not a type assertion

* refactor(native-chat): composer transport and Stop control in their own modules

Main's rewind change (#19338) brought NativeChatStructuredSession.tsx and use-structured-agent-session.ts
to their line limits, leaving no room for this branch's image-acceptance and unpublished-Stop lines.
The composer's transport (sends, commands, options, image acceptance) moves to
use-native-chat-structured-composer-transport.ts, and whether Stop shows and what it does moves to
structured-agent-session-stop-control.ts. Behavior is unchanged; the runtime cast on the composer's
'local' | 'remote' is now a typed return.

* test(native-chat): read registered agents by id, as main's structuredAgentsReadBy now takes

Main's A3 squash changed structuredAgentsReadBy to take agent ids; this branch's test still passed
{ agent } objects (CI typecheck TS2322).

* Add Pi structured chat over its native RPC mode

* Use shared provider spawn identity and base environment

* Complete Pi startup ownership and prompt delivery safeguards

* Use generic failure copy for Pi RPC sessions

* Admit finalized Pi output before session eviction

* Apply Pi client capability checks to all chat routes

* Keep older Pi versions on terminal chat

* Use supervised process support checks for Pi launches

* Complete the Pi location-test adapter fixture

* Retain the settled-work extraction in the main merge

* Use the settled-work module in the new reasoning sweep test

* Test that Pi prompt alerts skip clients that cannot read Pi

Main added prompt alerts to the turn-completion stream; the merge extended Pi's audience filter to them.

* Pin why a timed-out write closes the agent connection only once it is being written

A line still waiting in the queue is dropped and only its request fails, as before. A line already handed to the stream cannot be taken back and would hold every later write, a cancel included, so that timeout closes the connection; tests now cover both for the shared queue and for ACP.

* Type the prompt-alert fixture as the wire's prompt attention

Its host id is a branded type; the literal only checks under the wire type, as the completion fixture beside it does.

* Run the Pi launch-resolution test in the Node runtime project

It opens a real SQLite record store, which main's new boundary check now requires to run on Node.

* Pin that a Pi chat reopened after a restart resumes its stored session file

A fresh record store reading the journal back from disk must hand the launch the session file the chat proved before the restart, and the spawn must carry it as --session.

* Show an explicitly empty text answer as "Empty answer", not as unreadable

Live QA: answering a Pi input dialog with nothing (which Pi accepts) left the resolved card reading "Selected answer unavailable", the wording for an answer Orca cannot read. The receipt joined the answer's labels and text and turned an empty result into "no answer". It now keeps an answer whose text is present but empty (or whitespace) as an empty answer, shown as "Empty answer"; an answer naming neither text nor a known option still reads as unavailable.

Also pins that the editor dialog submits the text the user edited, not its prefill.

* refactor(pi): check and resolve Pi's binary through the shared version probe and command resolver

Pi's own `--version` runner and PATH lookup are gone. Create support and
every launch now resolve the binary through resolveStructuredAgentCommand,
so the Pi Command setting picks the binary both check and spawn, and an
unrunnable Command is refused at launch with agentCommandNotRunnable as for
the other agents. The version check runs through probeAgentCliVersion with
the same rule as before: stable 1.x of the current package; the older 0.x
package keeps the terminal chat. Pi's launch reads the shared per-agent
environment overlay and Command settings instead of Pi-only runtime deps.

* feat(pi): run stable Pi from 0.84.0 in the structured chat, not only 1.x
2026-10-07 17:44:45 -07:00
Brennan Benson a551aa5fe6 OpenCode structured chat over the Agent Client Protocol (#25845)
* refactor(native-chat): Grok's registration declares where it runs; ACP no longer borrows Codex's location rule

The rule a self-supervised agent child runs under (this machine, no WSL, Windows only with process
start-time proof) is its own module that Codex and the ACP adapter both use. Grok's registration
takes the full account-home resolver signature, and D3's tests build hosts with the agent registry.

* fix(native-chat): Grok follows the ACP runtime's request contract and the managed process's close

A request the agent or a Stop cancels is answered with the agent's own cancelled reply by the code that
owns it (the runtime no longer answers a silent handler), so a Stop needs no separate decline pass. A
permission answer still being saved when the agent stopped waiting is reported unconfirmed, since the
protocol already answered it cancelled. Cancelling the agent's own turn is the plain cancel. Request
rows are matched under their generation-scoped ids. A refusal's reason comes from the dialect's wording
path. The child drops its own stderr tail and close policy for the managed process's, and a close
whose process tree was not proven gone is reported as the adapter contract asks.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok chat Orca already holds resumes without writing what Grok replays

A chat with a saved Grok session reattaches with session/resume where the agent offers it, else
session/load. Either way the call runs inside the translator's load window, so what Grok sends while
it reattaches (its saved exchange, a task the dead process left running, ended by the restart) opens
no turn and writes no row; only context usage reads on. A reply an Orca or Grok crash cut short is no
longer completed from Grok's saved history: it reads like a Claude or Codex chat's, with the existing
notice. The attach window also closes after a failed attach, and a created session that session/resume
reports missing is replaced like one session/load reports missing.

The replay reconciliation is removed: the lane no longer reads the journal, and D3's replayed-input
grammar test and completed-turn check in the assembler go with it.

* refactor(native-chat): a failed Grok reattach needs no window close of its own; its lane is replaced

* test(native-chat): D3's merged tests use the shipped declarations and the launch options main requires

* fix(native-chat): typecheck fallout of the base merges; any agent's empty chat is reusable

Main's idle-empty-chat lookup and launch join now take any registered agent, as the rest of the
launch path does. The refusal check moved into the prompt turns and the prompt-block conversion beside
the turns that send it, keeping both files in their line limit.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok Stop ends the process once Grok settles its turn; the next send resumes

Grok's session/cancel ends only the running turn: work it already moved to the background keeps
running and can begin a turn of its own after the person pressed Stop. Stop is now a session
boundary, as it is for Claude: the cancel answers open requests and lets Grok end the turn, the host
waits a bounded grace for that, then ends the process; the next send relaunches and resumes.
The adapter's own bounded close of a turn Grok began is gone. Its named-turn check stays: the host
ends the session unless the provider declines a Stop naming a turn that has since ended.

* test(native-chat): a Grok Stop ends the process only after Grok answered the cancel

* fix(native-chat): Steer on a Grok card cancels the running prompt, then sends it

A send that reached Grok while a prompt ran was held in the adapter until that turn ended: Steer
on a queued card took the card out of the host's editable queue and meant 'send after this turn'.
It now cancels the running prompt (session/cancel; the session stays) and sends as the next prompt
once Grok answers the cancel, as the common pattern does; a steer behind another cancels it in
turn, so the last one runs. The adapter holds a send only while that cancel lands, so its general
held-send queue and its holdsDispatch report are gone (every send it holds has its turn open in
the journal). An older client's mid-turn send takes the same path. capabilities.steering is
unchanged and still unread.

* refactor(native-chat): a close or Stop cancels a start through the acquire's own abort signal

The host owns the acquire it runs, so it now owns its cancellation: each attach's acquire gets an
AbortSignal, aborted from outside the session's queue by a close and by a Stop admitted now (the
same admission rule as before). The optional abandonStart adapter hook, the router's fan-out to
every adapter and the ACP adapter's session-keyed start map are gone; the ACP adapter keeps an
unkeyed set of starts only so quit can prove their children gone, and keeps a failed start's
unproven child until its exit is proven.
The hook also let a later close ask that child again. The host now does that from state it holds:
a close of a chat with no live child whose record still names an owner process with no death
evidence asks the adapter to release it. The answer is not recorded as proof (the lease probe
does that), so an owner pid an earlier Orca left is never killed or marked gone. Claude and Codex
ignore the signal and hold no such child; their release is a no-op (tested).

* fix(native-chat): a Grok crash that closes stdout before its exit still ends with Grok's last words

On macOS and Linux the agent's stdout ends before its exit is observed, with or without the
supervisor's EOF forwarding, so the connection's loss closed the journal first and its error text
became the session's ended reason, dropping Grok's stderr. The reason is now read at the proven
exit: the agent's last words when it left any, else why the connection closed. The failure already
carried them. Comments that assumed the exit comes first, that early frames past the cap refuse the
start, and that dispatch re-checks image support are corrected.

* fix(native-chat): nothing Grok sends while a held chat reattaches is written, marked as replay or not

The reattach window relied on the dialect's replay verdict, and Grok's frames read as live unless
they carry isReplay, so an unmarked chat frame during session/resume opened a turn that never
ended. D3 now marks every frame inside the window as replay before the translator reads it, so the
translator keeps only context usage whatever the agent marked; options and commands are still
adopted. The translator's load semantics are unchanged.

* test(native-chat): a Stop after a resume finds no turn an unmarked old reply opened

* test(native-chat): a resumed Grok chat keeps its last context reading; the resume refreshes only the window

* test(native-chat): a Grok background task a Stop ended reads as stopped reporting

* refactor(native-chat): quit's stop of each start answers through one promise kind

* fix(native-chat): quit aborts every start the host has in flight before draining attaches

A Grok that never answered its handshake held quit until the start's own 60 s bound, past the
20 s quit deadline. The host's teardown now aborts each in-flight acquire (and any the drain
still begins), so the adapter's own quit controller and its map of starts are gone: a start
has one canceller, the host's signal.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok start's abort stops reaching its child once the start has returned

The listener stayed on the host's signal until the attach finished committing, so a Close in that
window killed the now-live child behind the host's back and it read as Grok crashing. The start
now detaches it when it ends; a later Close goes through the session's own stop.

* fix(native-chat): a close or Stop during any attach phase stops the start before it launches

The attach began its abort controller only after reconciling leases, resolving recovery and
probing the previous owner, so a close or admitted Stop in those phases reached nothing and Grok
launched anyway. The controller now begins first, and the acquisition checks it before asking the
adapter to start.

* test(native-chat): a close during the attach's owner probe asks no adapter to start

Also renames the close test after the hook it no longer exercises.

* test(native-chat): a close's re-ask closes a Claude or Codex child a failed cleanup left

The re-ask is not a no-op for them: when the adapter still holds the child its cleanup could not
prove gone, the close stops it again as a requested close, and Claude persists the handle of the
conversation it ran so the next send resumes it. Corrects the tests' and comment's wording; the
close awaits the re-ask, bounded by each adapter's kill ladder.

* fix(native-chat): Steer during a turn Grok began itself cancels it and sends once it ends

A send while Grok ran a turn of its own (a background task waking it) went straight to Grok, which
queued it behind that turn where Orca could no longer withdraw it, while Stop treated the same turn
as the running reply. The send now waits as a steer, the turn is cancelled once, and the message
goes when the turn ends; a Stop withdraws it and an exit rejects it as never sent.

* test(native-chat): a steer whose cancel Grok never answers ends Grok and is rejected as never sent

Pins the bounded steer cancel kept from the runtime: past the bound the connection closes, the
running reply reads unverifiable, Grok's end reads as its exit, and the waiting steer is rejected
as never sent.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok crash stays a crash when a stop lands before its exit is proven

After the connection broke and the close could not prove Grok's exit, any later stop Orca asked
for (the next start, a Stop, a Close) marked the child as closed by Orca, so the crash read as a
requested close and Grok's last words were dropped; a send meanwhile was recorded unconfirmed.
The connection loss now decides the cause, and a send on that session is rejected as never sent.

* test(native-chat): fixtures this PR's registered Grok and desktop capability made stale

CI's unit shards failed on tests outside the PR's own lists. Each encodes something this PR changes
on purpose: Grok is now a registered agent (the seam test's unregistered agent is now Cursor); the
desktop now advertises registered agents (the restart-offer tests' older client drops that
capability explicitly); the attach context carries the start's abort controllers (the forget-status
double gains them); and the ACP real-host test rig sends to the host directly (listed beside the
other real-host rig in the send ratchet).

* fix(native-chat): a start quit stops is not the queued message's start failure

With quit now aborting a start it would have waited for, the delivery step recorded the aborted
start as the message's failure ("couldn't restart"). After quit has stopped delivery, the step
leaves the message to quit, which settles it as a close does ("The chat closed before this message
was sent."). The test that pinned quit waiting for that start and stopping its child now pins that
nothing is launched behind quit.

* fix(native-chat): a message sent after a Stop or close aborted a start gets its own start

A start the host aborts (an admitted Stop, a close, or quit) returned its refusal to the delivery
loop, which then rejected whatever was queued at that moment with "couldn't restart", including a
message the user sent after the Stop. The attach now reports that the host aborted it, and the loop
re-derives from the journal instead: what the Stop or close withdrew is already settled, a message
accepted since gets a start of its own, and quit's next step stops the loop. This replaces the
quit-only carve-out with the same rule for every abort and every agent.

* test(native-chat): the message sent after an aborted start is answered, so no settlement outlives the test

* fix(native-chat): a Grok model pick Grok never answers no longer holds Stop or Close

The pick runs on the session's queue. It now registers in the host's out-of-queue
abort registry beside a start, so a close, an admitted Stop or quit abandons it, and
the ACP adapter bounds it at 30 s like Claude and Codex. A late answer is still adopted.

* fix(agent-launch): a phone's launch opens a terminal for an agent whose chat it cannot show

agent.launch now reads the caller's capabilities by the rule tabs and restart offers
use (clientRendersStructuredAgent). A phone without registered-agents.v1 gets Grok as
a terminal again, as on main; the host's own callers and desktop clients are unchanged.

* fix(acp): strip every agent hook variable from the ACP child, from the shared list

ACP_CHILD_ENV_TO_DELETE was a second copy of the hook runtime keys that missed
ORCA_AGENT_HOOK_TRANSPORT; it now spreads AGENT_HOOK_RUNTIME_ENV_KEYS beside the pane
identity keys.

* refactor(native-chat): the mutation context carries the provider-wait registry itself

Keeps the host file within its line limit; one field instead of two closures over it.

* fix(agent-launch): agent.launch.v2 still vouches for Claude and Codex chats

The caller rule from the previous commit also turned Claude and Codex into terminals
for a client advertising only agent.launch.v2, whose contract says it opens a chat
(mobile retry-authority tests). Only an agent beyond those two now needs the client to
read it (clientRendersStructuredAgent); the test fixtures go back to what they were.

* refactor(native-chat): drop saved-history adoption from the timeline assembler

The common pattern discards the history a provider replays while loading a
session, so the assembler has no use for an input.history event.

* refactor(acp): drop session/load history adoption from the translator

The common pattern discards the history an agent replays during session/load,
keeping only what it says about the context window. Remove the adoption path
(acp-history-adoption.ts, the adopt option, and the historical background-task
liveness rewrite it fed) so load replay is always dropped except usage.

* refactor(native-chat): a pending input is only Orca's send now

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: drop the comment naming the
provider's saved message, and make requestedAt required since every pending
input comes from input.accepted.

* test(acp): keep the task-result status table on live frames

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: the result-status mapping was only
tested through adopted history, so run the same table on live frames, and
cover an unmarked task notice during a load being dropped.

* test(acp): a frame helper for a shell command Grok is running

* fix(acp): a Grok crash settles through the host's provider-exit batch, scoped to the turn it ended

A Grok crash ended the journal unverifiable before the adapter reported the exit, so the host's
provider-exit settlement found no running turn and wrote nothing: the adapter's failure (with
Grok's last words) never reached the journal, and a later stale-session pass wrote a bare,
thread-scoped cut-short row, so the partial reply was not folded as Claude's and Codex's are.

At a proven exit the ACP lane now ends its running turn interrupted at the exit instant, as the
host's exit contract expects of a child's own translator (Codex's does the same). When Grok's
stdout closed first (every POSIX crash), the turn is unverifiable only until the exit is proven:
the host's provider-exit settlement now takes the exit as proof naming the child's fence and
revises what that child left unverifiable in the same batch, with the turn-scoped row and the
adapter's failure. Claude and Codex write no unverifiable turn of a live child except a command
whose hand-off is in doubt; that turn is now revised at the exit instead of at the next open.

* test(acp): a crash seen first leaves the host no Grok turn to revise

* refactor(native-chat): what a gone generation left unfinished gets its own module

The settlement file passed 300 lines with the exit-proof revision. The unfinished-work reads
(capture, interrupted-by-the-exit, in-progress) are their own concept and move out unchanged,
apart from the exit proof they now take.

* refactor(native-chat): a watched exit revises what its child left unverifiable without reading Stop marks

An exit's own instant is the turn's end, so the revision needs only each row's fence: the
settlement's journal type gains itemFence alone, and the host test fakes say so.

* test(native-chat): drop the duplicate itemFence on the fake that already had one

* test(claude, codex): an exit whose stdout ended first still reports as it always did

The provider supervisor now ends Orca's stdout when the agent's ends, so on every crash EOF
arrives before the exit is seen. Claude's and Codex's connections report nothing at EOF and
report the exit, with its usual reason, once it is seen.

* fix(acp): reopen a chat with session/load, as the common pattern does

An agent that offers both now reloads its session instead of resuming it; the
reattach window still discards what it replays except context usage.

* fix(acp): drop the 60 s handshake bound; an abort fails the start's waits at once

Neither common design bounds an ACP handshake: Close, Stop and quit end a start
that never answers. The abort now also closes the connection, as a kill there
does, so the start settles even before the child's exit is proven. The
host-stopped start refusal only this bound produced goes with it; the idle
sweep keeps its words.

* fix(acp): a Stop naming an ended turn follows Claude's rule

It still stops nothing while another turn is live, but in the gap before a
follow-up's turn opens, which no client can name, it now stops what is in
flight and the session ends, as a Claude Stop does.

* fix(native-chat): a close no longer re-asks a failed start's unproven child

Neither common design retries that stop at Close, and Orca's Claude contract
re-asks only at the next start and at quit. The ACP adapter keeps the child
until its exit is proven and asks it again there, as Claude does.

* fix(acp): a message sent during a turn the agent began itself goes at once

Both common designs send it straight to the agent with no cancel; only Orca's
own running prompt is steered (cancelled, then re-prompted).

* test(native-chat): dismiss-all through a remote client's audience keeps a newer Orca's offer

Uses an audience production sends (one that cannot show every agent), per review.

* fix(acp): launch Grok as `grok agent stdio`, without the update and leader flags

The common pattern passes neither --no-auto-update, --no-leader nor
GROK_DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER; full access still adds --always-approve.

* fix(acp): an agent that ends its stdout, or answers unreadably, is not a lost connection

As in the common pattern, only a broken stdin (or Orca's own close) ends the
agent; one that closed its output but can still be written to stays until a
Stop, a close or its exit. The provider supervisor goes back to its base
content, so Claude and Codex no longer get the forwarded stdout end either.

* fix(native-chat): a person's close joining a failed one still binds the turn its child end cuts

On main every close of the chat writes its own Stop and settle. Here a later close joins the
first and writes no row, and the first's settle closed when its kill failed, so a turn that opened
in between and was cut by the next close read as failed. A person's close joining a person's close
whose Stop opened a settle now reopens that settle until its attempt is done.

Tests: a close whose kill failed still closes its settle; a turn opened between a failed close and
the next reads as the person's cancellation (each fails without its half of the fix).

* test(native-chat): Grok opens as a chat only behind the structured-chat setting

agent.launch and orchestration worker-start read the same setting as the
renderer route; pin both states for Grok on each. The setting's description no
longer names only Codex and Claude, in every catalog.

* docs(acp): generic ACP comments say what holds for every agent, not Grok

Stop ends the session for every ACP agent, as in the common pattern; the
adoption hook comment goes (adoption is not planned); a failed start's child is
retried at the next start or quit.

* test(claude, codex): type the EOF-before-exit test's streams; the supervisor no longer forwards EOF

The Claude test wrote to the child's stdout and stderr through their Readable
type, which the node typecheck rejects; it now holds its own PassThrough
streams. The comments no longer credit the reverted supervisor change.

* feat(acp): a steer's cancel asks once and never ends the agent

The runtime had one cancel: send session/cancel, wait at most 10 s for Orca's prompt to settle,
then close the connection, which ends the agent. A steer used it too, so a slow agent lost its
process just because the person added a message. requestSteerCancel() now sends session/cancel
once per prompt, cancels the agent's open requests and answers later permissions cancelled, and
never bounds or closes: the prompt's own reply ends it and the steer's prompt follows. cancel()
stays the Stop: bounded, then close. A Stop after a steer still bounds and closes. Both cancel
paths move into acp-prompt-cancel.ts over one cancel channel.

* chore(native-chat): keep the record store and recovery capsule under max-lines after the main merge

* fix(acp): a repeated steer shares the cancel in flight; say what the caller owns

Per review: a second steer before the first write lands returns that write instead of resolving
early. The steer's JSDoc says the wait for the prompt's reply is unbounded and that a prompt that
fails instead must not take the steer until the caller rebuilds the session; the Stop's says a
prompt that settles in time leaves the agent for the Stop's owner to end. The steer test now gives
the runtime a handler that would allow: the open permission's signal aborts and the late one never
reaches it.

* fix(native-chat): drop the stopDelivery the A3 merge doubled

* fix(acp): a steer's cancel asks Grok once and never ends it

A steer now uses D1's notify-only cancel. Two messages sent during a reply Grok began itself
cut that reply, as the common pattern does, and then both run; before, the queued first
message could not answer the bounded cancel and Orca ended Grok although Grok answered.
A Stop keeps the bounded cancel and its 4 s grace.

* fix(acp): a permission Grok asks with no prompt of Orca's running is declined

During a turn Grok began itself nobody asked it to act, so the request is answered
cancelled at once instead of opening a card that waits, as the common pattern does.

* fix(acp): a Grok that dies while starting is reported with its own last words

A dying process's stdout ends before its exit is seen, so the start failed as a closed
connection and Grok's stderr was lost. A start whose connection closed now waits, bounded by
the Stop grace (or a Close/Stop), for the exit before it is told.

* test: a Stop after a steer sends its own cancel; drop the import the A3 merge doubled

* test(native-chat): main's Stop-note test builds its turn context with the agent registry

* test(claude): say why the close test's fake child cast is safe

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity and turn context the current way

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle; the turn context also needs this branch's agent registry.

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity with the opaque handle

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle.

* test(ratchet): require src/main/provider-process now that it has landed

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 and this branch both added the import at different lines; the merge kept both.

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 made the same fix as this branch at a different line; the merge kept both imports.

* feat(native-chat): record a fresh provider conversation that replaced one the agent could not restore

A chat whose saved conversation the agent cannot reopen can now continue in a
fresh one: the handle chain records the new conversation as a creation that
replaces the lost one (which, why, and when), keeping every earlier link.

Rows keep a shape older builds read: the stored chain starts at the latest
replacement and carries the earlier links inside it.

* test(native-chat): build this stack's journal identities with main's opaque provider handle

Main's #24991 replaced the {kind, ...} handle with {transport, agent, nativeId}; three test
files from this stack still wrote the old shape. Same lines the downstream ACP branch uses.

* docs(acp): every reattach drops the agent's replay, not only for a chat the journal holds

* refactor(native-chat): store a replaced conversation flat; refuse it where older builds read the row

Older builds only read Claude and Codex records, so the nested stored form
protected rows no replacement can reach while adding a cap mismatch after a
downgrade. Store the chain as held, refuse a replacement in a Claude or Codex
chain until one has a stored shape older builds read, and refuse a supersession
key on a replacement that names no creation in the chain.

* refactor(native-chat): read hosts' structured agents from the app-shell services

Main grew the startup hydration hook to its line limit; the host agents sync is an app-lifetime subscription like the structured session tabs sync beside it, so it moves there.

* Use current provider handles in transition tests

* Use current provider handles in timeline fixtures

* test(native-chat): prove replacement rows survive downgrade and re-upgrade

* Require the ACP directory in the runtime import check

* test(ratchet): require src/main/acp now that this PR lands it

* feat(acp): a saved session the agent cannot reopen continues in a new one, with one warning row

When session/load (or session/resume) of a saved ACP session fails, the chat starts a new session and records it as a creation that replaces the lost one (#25747's 'replaces' link), and writes one warning row that the agent no longer remembers the earlier messages. A created session the agent reports missing is still superseded silently; a signed-out agent or a start that is over (Close, Stop, a lost agent) still fails the start.

* chore(acp): rewrap the acquire header comment

* test(acp): a start closed while the agent reopens fails without opening or announcing a new session

* Let ACP connections own their supervised agent process

* Preserve ACP cleanup evidence and isolate exit observers

* Expose ACP cleanup observations and type the permission fixture

* refactor(native-chat): the registered-agents capability lives in its own module

Main's growth put protocol-version.ts one counted line over its 300-line limit once the capability
was added; like main's other per-feature capabilities, it now has its own module, and importers read
it from there.

* refactor(acp): one connection owns the Grok process and its protocol

D3 now opens each ACP agent through createAcpAgentConnection (ACP-ALIGN #25810): one object spawns the
process on the execution host, owns its stdio and protocol, and reports its proven exit. It is built and
tracked before the handshake, so a start's abort (Close, Stop, quit) still reaches it, and a failed start
keeps that same connection for the next close to retry rather than spawning another process.

Deleted: the spawnAcpStructuredChild wrapper and its test, the raw-stream runtime assembly, the caller's
exit -> runtime.close wiring, the stdout-EOF heuristic (the connection no longer treats stdout EOF as
exit), and the 10 s steer/Stop cancel bound with requestSteerCancel. Reader control maps to
pauseReading/resumeReading; a close is connection.close after the host's existing 4 s Stop grace.

The adapter owns what the protocol no longer does: one session/cancel per running prompt however many
steers arrive (cleared with that send's settlement, retried after a failed write), and a Stop or steer
answers every open agent request the person has not already answered with the agent's own cancelled
reply. An answer already being saved when the Stop lands is sent.

Tests: blocked cancel write never holds Stop's grace, two quick steers send one cancel, a failed cancel
write is retried, a real process exiting while a child holds its stdout ends the session, and the
existing start-abort, retention, crash, connection-loss and reload-failure suites on the new rig.

* Add chat-owned OpenCode server transport foundation

* Combine server fixture type imports for CI lint

* fix(acp): Grok signs in on its own machine with its API key or cached sign-in

When Grok reports that it needs authentication, Orca now names a sign-in method on the machine Grok runs
on, read from the same environment Grok was launched with: xai.api_key when XAI_API_KEY is set there and
Grok offers that method, else cached_token when Grok offers it, else none and the chat keeps the existing
not-signed-in refusal. The rule lives in Grok's launch spec; the adapter applies any agent's rule for new
and reopened sessions through the protocol client's caller-named method (authenticate, then retry once).
No new sign-in UI; interactive methods are never chosen.

* Bound request serialization and correct transport fixture types

* fix(acp): the adapter decides which of Grok's requests reach the person

The turn owner now admits every agent request, permission or question, from its own turn state: a
request reaches the person only while Orca's prompt runs and no steer or Stop is cutting it short (a
question may also come from a turn Grok began itself, until a Stop). Anything else gets the agent's
own cancelled reply and opens no card, so a question arriving after Stop or during a steer never
appears. A steer, like a Stop, withdraws the requests already open; an answer already being saved is
still sent. The protocol client's abort-on-cancel path is no longer used: after the connection
change its request signal aborts only when the connection closes.

* fix(acp): a plan Grok proposes shows as a plan, with no approval card

When Grok leaves plan mode it asks the client to approve its plan (x.ai/exit_plan_mode). Orca showed a
blocking 'Approve plan / Request changes' card for it; the common pattern has no such gate. Now the
plan goes into the chat's existing Plan row (the plan-document status row Codex and ACP plan updates
already use) and the request is answered at once with 'abandoned' plus feedback telling Grok to stop and
wait for the person's feedback or a request to implement it in a later turn, so nothing is approved on
the person's behalf. Dialects gain settleRequest for requests answered without asking anyone.

* fix(orchestration): worker-start opens a Grok worker in a terminal, as before

With the structured chat setting on, worker-start decided 'structured' for Grok and then the structured
worker factory (Claude and Codex only) refused it, so the start failed; main opened a terminal Grok
worker. Worker-start now decides with no registered agents beyond Claude and Codex, so Grok gets a
terminal worker as before. agent.launch and the app's own launches still open Grok as a structured
chat. Temporary until structured workers take registered agents.

* Bound OpenCode event consumers and isolate chat caller identity

* fix(acp): a prompt answer Orca can't read ends the turn instead of hanging it

A session/prompt rejection that was not the agent's own error answer (an answer that fails Orca's
schema, or one too large to read) left the turn running: the next message became a steer with nothing
to cancel and was never sent or settled, and Stop waited its full grace. As in the common pattern, any
prompt failure now ends the turn as failed (a failed-turn row without words, since none are the
agent's) and settles the send, so the next message goes. Only a closed connection keeps the send
running, for the connection-loss path to settle.

* fix(acp): send Grok's prompt-identity extension only to agents that echo it

session/prompt carried _meta {promptId, requestId} for every ACP agent, though only Grok's dialect
echoes it (injectedPromptIdentity). Now only an agent whose dialect declares it gets the extension;
other ACP agents get a plain prompt.

* refactor(native-chat): the registered-agents capability lives in protocol-version again, as on main

This reverts 0ef6d21815. That commit moved the capability to its own module only because main's
protocol-version.ts was then one counted line over its limit; main now defines it there itself within
the limit, and main's new restart test imports it from there. Main's test also reads the desktop's
capability list as an older client; on this branch the desktop advertises registered agents, so its
older client is that list without this one capability.

* test(acp): read the sign-in method with a schema, not a type assertion

* refactor(native-chat): composer transport and Stop control in their own modules

Main's rewind change (#19338) brought NativeChatStructuredSession.tsx and use-structured-agent-session.ts
to their line limits, leaving no room for this branch's image-acceptance and unpublished-Stop lines.
The composer's transport (sends, commands, options, image acceptance) moves to
use-native-chat-structured-composer-transport.ts, and whether Stop shows and what it does moves to
structured-agent-session-stop-control.ts. Behavior is unchanged; the runtime cast on the composer's
'local' | 'remote' is now a typed return.

* test(native-chat): read registered agents by id, as main's structuredAgentsReadBy now takes

Main's A3 squash changed structuredAgentsReadBy to take agent ids; this branch's test still passed
{ agent } objects (CI typecheck TS2322).

* fix(acp): a first reopen warns when Grok forgets a chat that exchanged turns

A Grok session the chat created was treated as one Grok never saved, so
when Grok reported it missing on the chat's first reopen, Orca swapped in
a fresh session silently, even after completed exchanges: the person saw
the old messages while Grok had forgotten them.

The launch now counts a created session as never saved only when the
chat's journal, read at the failed reopen, holds no turn of that Grok
session; anything else, an unreadable journal included, takes the normal
path: the fresh session is recorded as replacing the old one and the one
warning row is written.

* Add setting-gated OpenCode server native chat integration

* Use checked native event ordinals in timeline identities

* Validate nested account tags and preserve bounded restore failures

* Keep native history restoration within its session module

* Check native protocol records and support registered-agent drafts

* fix(acp): a start writes the warning row an earlier attach failure dropped

The row saying Grok forgot the chat was written only into the attach's
deferred sink, while the fresh session's link was saved earlier. An attach
failure, quit or crash in between dropped the row forever.

Every start now derives the owed rows: each conversation the chain says was
lost to a failed restore gets its row unless the chat's journal already holds
it. The row now names the lost conversation rather than the fresh session, so
a row an unused replacement wrote still counts after Grok supersedes it.

* fix(acp): a question during a turn the agent began itself gets its cancelled reply

A question or other card-opening request the agent sends while no prompt of
Orca's runs (a turn it began itself, as when a background task wakes it) now
gets the agent's own cancelled reply and opens no card, the same rule
permissions already follow there. Nobody is waiting on that turn. A plan the
agent shares in it is still shown.

* Update launch and status tests for registered structured agents

* test(native-chat): import the unfinished-work capture from the module that owns it

Main's reasoning sweep test (#19221) imported it from the dead-generation settlement, which
this branch split it out of.

* Run OpenCode structured chat over ACP

OpenCode joins the ACP lane as two launch rows (opencode and opencode2 run
'acp'), with a dialect that reads command output and exit codes from
OpenCode's metadata and labels its project-wide 'always' grant honestly.
The launch forces OPENCODE_CLIENT=acp and turns OpenCode's question tool
off, strips Orca's terminal status overlay from the child, and pins the
chat's OpenCode account as a tagged locator (managed profile, or data and
state directories). Image prompts go as ACP image blocks when the agent
advertises them, and restart recovery reads OpenCode's own store for
presence only.

* OpenCode 2 over ACP only for its default account

OpenCode 2's ACP command runs inside the user's own background service,
which the chat's environment never reaches, so a managed profile cannot be
honoured: while one is selected a new OpenCode 2 chat opens in the terminal,
and a record pinned to one never launches.

* Test OpenCode over ACP against its recorded traffic

Seven scrubbed recordings of opencode acp (1.18.31 and 2.0.14) replay through
the adapter: an approved shell command with its exit code and the
project-wide always label, deny on both majors, the 1.x subagent approval
that never arrives (Stop still ends the turn), the 2.x subagent approval
answered on the chat's session, the stray 1.x file write, and a provider
error shown in OpenCode's own words. The replay now plays recorded error
answers too.

* Name the normalized tool update for what it is

* OpenCode over ACP: 1.x only, honest grants, sound recovery

Review round 1:
- OpenCode 2 stays on its terminal-backed chat: its acp command runs in the
  user's own background service, which a chat's environment and account pin
  don't reach, and a declined local launch has no terminal fallback yet.
- The model-pick launch change is out of this PR (it could leave a worktree
  behind when the host later chose the terminal).
- 'Always allow' reads 'Allow for this chat': OpenCode 1.x keeps it in the
  chat's own process.
- A file write OpenCode repeats to a client with no file system leaves no
  row.
- Images are bounded by the encoded prompt line, not just raw bytes.
- Restart recovery: each accepted send claims its own stored copy first, and
  queued cards never trigger the read.
- A send whose child ended during the image read settles as not sent.
- An account Orca cannot pin (inline auth, relative directories) is refused
  as unsupported; default XDG directories the user never set stay unset; the
  retired shared plugin directory and data-account variables never reach the
  child; newer locator fields are tolerated.

* Round 2: recovery reads the chat's own database, honest grant label

- Restart recovery resolves OpenCode's database under the chat's own home,
  not Orca's, now that default data directories stay unset.
- 'Always allow' reads 'Allow until OpenCode restarts': Stop, quitting and an
  idle chat's stopped agent all end it.
- Only a message with images is refused for passing one protocol line, so a
  long text message never reads as an image problem.

* refactor(native-chat): keep the session host within its line budget after main's Stop work

Main's #25949 left the host at exactly its 300-line budget, and this branch's acquire-abort wiring
adds one line. The reveal module now comes in as a namespace import, as the host already does for
its other helper modules, and the earlier reorder of two type imports is undone.

* test(codex): move the stdout-before-exit test into its own file

Main's connection test file is at its 800-line test budget, and this branch's exit-order test
pushed it over (CI lint, max-lines).

* Keep the record's path bound, which the launch directory now uses

* Narrow the refusal in the prompt content test instead of casting it

* Type the replayed error answer as the protocol's error

* Read the replayed message through the replay's own schema

* Match recovered OpenCode messages through main's send fingerprint

Main gave every stored send one fingerprint helper (it drops the sender field); restart recovery now hashes stored messages through it instead of rebuilding the hash by hand.

* Keep an `opencode` that is 2.x on the terminal chat

Homebrew's `opencode` is 2.x now, so the binary, not only the agent name, decides whether OpenCode's acp runs in-process. An ACP launch spec can name the --version releases it runs on; OpenCode takes stable 1.x from 1.18.31. createSupport asks the binary a launch would spawn, with the environment a launch starts from, so a desktop launch of 2.x opens the terminal chat; every launch asks again before spawning, so a binary swapped after create never starts. The --version probe is shared and bounded, and a version it cannot read counts as unsupported.

* Type the mocked login-shell environment instead of asserting it

* Run the OpenCode the Command setting names, and say why a version check refused

The structured OpenCode and Grok chats resolved a bare `opencode`/`grok` from PATH while detection and the terminal chat honoured the per-agent Command setting, so a user who pointed Orca at a specific binary got another one (and, with the version gate, another version) in the structured chat. resolveStructuredAgentCommand now takes any agent id and the stock binary name; the ACP launch and createSupport's version check both resolve through it, so they ask about and spawn the same file. An unrunnable Command is admitted at create and refused at launch with agentCommandNotRunnable, as Claude and Codex do, instead of silently opening a terminal.

The --version probe now logs why it refused (exit code, timeout, oversized or versionless output, unsupported release), with the binary's own first words, so a refusal on a real host can be diagnosed. A real-probe test drives createSupport and the launch against stand-in binaries: per-agent PATH, Command setting, 2.x first on PATH, and an unrunnable Command.

* Say why a new OpenCode tab opened a terminal, and ask the host again for its agents

Live QA run 5 opened the terminal-backed OpenCode chat with the private 1.18.31 set as the Command and on the per-agent PATH, and Orca's main log had no version-check line. The host never decided: a local launch routes to the structured chat only once the renderer has learned the host's registered agents, and that list was read once at startup, so a read that failed (or was skipped while the local runtime's capabilities were unknown) kept OpenCode on the terminal for the whole session. A launch that finds the list unlearned now asks the host again, so the next launch opens the chat.

Every point that sends a launch to a terminal now says so, naming the check and never a value: the renderer's route decision ([agent-launch-route], in the renderer console), createSupport's refusing check ([structured-create-support]), a version check that passed as well as one that refused ([agent-cli-version]), an OpenCode account that cannot be pinned ([opencode-account]), and a host launch the default asked to be a chat ([agent-launch]). createSupport's composition moves out of the unchecked runtime class into structured-agent-launch-support.ts.

Tests reproduce run 5: the host's create check with HOME and every XDG directory in the rig, the Command and per-agent PATH naming a stand-in 1.18.31, and the account pinned to the rig's XDG directories; and the renderer route with those settings, before and after the host's list is learned (ablation: without the re-ask the route stays on the terminal chat).

* Type the mocked login-shell environment in the OpenCode probe tests instead of asserting it

* Pass the OpenCode Command and environment through the route test's store helper, which types its settings

* Open OpenCode's chat on the first new tab, and learn the host's agents when they become available

The renderer routes an OpenCode tab to the structured chat only once it has learned the host's registered agents, and that list was read once at startup with nothing to read it again, so a read that came too early or failed sent every OpenCode tab to the terminal chat.

- agentSession.agents answers from the registrations the host is built from, as createSupport already does, instead of installing the host first: the answer is fixed for this build, so it no longer waits on, or fails with, opening the chat journal.
- The local list is read again when the local runtime's capabilities land, so a startup read made while they were unknown is redone on the event that makes it possible.
- A new tab whose chat route waits only on that list asks the host for it and opens nothing until it answers or 3 seconds pass (the local admission bound), then decides: the first launch opens the chat. A host that does not publish its agents is never waited on.

* Type the new-tab route request as a launch request, which carries the delivery callback

* Declare that agentSession.agents answers from the registrations in the cross-version manifest

Older builds read the list from the installed host, newer ones from the registrations it is built from; the manifest now asks only that Codex is listed, which holds for both.

* Wait for this computer's runtime too before routing a new tab during a slow startup

Field QA: soon after a slow startup, a new tab opened the terminal chat because the local runtime had not reported its capabilities yet, which routes straight to the terminal; the bounded wait covered only an unlearned agent list. A new tab whose chat route waits only on either answer now asks for it and opens nothing until it comes or 3 seconds pass, then decides; the [agent-launch-route] line still names the blocker if it falls back. Tests that never meant to exercise startup now start with the runtime's answer known.

* Wait for the probe that lands the runtime capabilities, not one that failed at startup

When the startup probe fails (a rig whose terminal daemon failed to start), asking again answers null at once, so the new-tab wait ended early and the tab opened the terminal chat. The wait now subscribes to the event that delivers the capabilities, probes once, and stops at the 3 s cap; it applies to both routes, so OpenCode (whose blocker is the unlearned agent list) and Claude (unknown capabilities) both wait for it. Tests run the real capability module with a failed startup probe: Claude and OpenCode open their chat when a later probe lands within the wait, and the terminal chat after the cap otherwise.

* Answer an OpenCode account Orca cannot pin at create support, not as a failed chat

Live QA with inline OpenCode credentials (OPENCODE_AUTH_CONTENT) passed the version check at create support and was refused only at create, so the window showed a failed "OpenCode Chat" with Retry where a declined launch opens the terminal chat. Create support now resolves the account a new chat would pin through the same read-only resolver the model catalog and create use, and answers no, logging the account-pin check, when the host refuses to pin it; any other failure is left for create to state. Create's own refusal stays as the backstop.

* fix(opencode): start the chat with the user's OpenCode environment as-is

An OpenCode chat with no managed profile no longer records data/state
folders or a database choice, no longer refuses inline credentials or
relative paths, and launches with the user's environment unchanged.
Drops the create-support account-pin probe that only those refusals used.

Brennan Benson c785c986c2 feat(native-chat): teach chat agents to show inline visuals in their own folder (#26099)
* feat(native-chat): visual directive grammar and host read for a chat's visuals folder

A shared grammar for the ::orca-visual{file="..." title="..."} reply line,
the per-chat visuals folder location on the owning host, and the
agentSession.readVisual runtime method that reads one visual with lexical and
canonical containment, a 512 KiB bounded read and UTF-8 refusal.

* feat(native-chat): render chat visuals inline and in the right sidebar

Native-chat assistant replies render a ::orca-visual{...} line as the chat's
HTML visual in an opaque, scripts-only sandboxed frame: CSP first, the host
frame navigation guard registered before content runs, live theme without a
reload, fitted height, links opened in the viewer's browser only from a real
gesture, lazy mount, and one muted line when the visual cannot be shown.
Open in sidebar shows the same frame in the right sidebar, widened while it
is open and restored after.

* feat(native-chat): teach chat agents to show inline visuals in their own folder

Native-chat Claude and Codex sessions now get a per-chat visuals folder on
the host that runs them, write access to exactly that folder, its path in
ORCA_CHAT_VISUALS_DIR, and an Orca skill that teaches the ::orca-visual line.

- Skill ships as an unpacked plugin folder in desktop and headless builds.
- Claude: --plugin-dir via SDK plugins, behind the CLI version probe (now one
  shared probe for every version-gated flag); folder added to
  additionalDirectories beside the user's own.
- Codex: skills/extraRoots/set and the folder appended to the user's own
  writable roots, between initialize and the thread open, under a 2 s budget;
  unsupported, failed or hung setup opens the chat without visuals.
- A host sweep removes folders no chat record maps to, and folders whose
  local workspace is provably removed; anything unproven is kept.

* test(native-chat): the visuals skill names only theme variables the frame sets

* fix(native-chat): visual CI fixes, shared height governor, live-turn streaming hold

Registers agentSession.readVisual from the methods index so the structured
method file stays under its line budget, replaces reflective reads with checked
narrowing, moves the pure height governor to src/shared for mobile, and holds a
half-written directive tail while the turn works (structured text rows carry no
running state).

* fix(native-chat): harden the visual read and link opening

Re-checks after the open that the chat's visuals folder is still the real
directory at Orca's path, reports unexpected filesystem faults by code without
host paths, and lets one click in a visual open at most one page.

* fix(native-chat): keep visual lines out of plain-text reply surfaces; review fixes

One shared helper drops visual lines (outside fenced code) from reply text where
it becomes plain text: the structured status summary that feeds the sidebar row,
dashboard, notifications, phone rows and handoffs, and AI Vault reply previews.
Review fixes: height also counts a pinned body's overflow, only the live
frontier row holds a half-written visual line, the runaway-height stop needs the
same step repeated, and any host refusal evicts the cached revision.

* fix(native-chat): review round 1 for chat visuals delivery and cleanup

- Visuals sweep: a workspace counts as removed only when no profile's
  catalog holds it (chats and visuals are shared by every profile, catalogs
  are not); a worktree in a known project is removed only when git no
  longer records it; any unreadable profile decides nothing; one catalog
  snapshot per run; a symlinked visuals root is never walked.
- The other-profile catalog reader moves out of window/ and also returns
  project ids.
- A folder Orca itself inherited is stripped at the spawn layer for both
  agents, not only from the launch overlay.
- Claude version probe: a probe that gave no version is never remembered;
  the plugin check waits up to the probe's kill time so a slow first probe
  no longer costs a chat its skill.
- Skill: kept out of Claude's / menu, filename and theme guidance matched to
  the renderer, refused writes are not retried.
- Opt-in real Codex test for skill discovery and the writable root.

* feat(native-chat): ask the Claude CLI its version when native chat starts

The first chat after Orca starts usually finds the version known, so the
plugin and thinking-display checks answer at once instead of probing a
cold binary while the chat waits.

* fix(native-chat): resolve the visuals folder without the removed journal-paths helper

Main removed the per-chat journal paths and the journal database's state
directory; the visuals folder keeps the same sha256 layout on its own and the
read method uses the profile state directory the chat host is opened in.

* fix(native-chat): review round 2 fixes; copy a reply without its visual lines

Reply previews in Agent Session History drop visual lines per text part before
lines are folded; the frame adds a body's overflow only when the body really
overflows; fence tracking follows CommonMark closers and openers; the copy
button copies a reply without visual lines; a coded read fault keeps its cause.

* fix(native-chat): review round 2 for chat visuals delivery and cleanup

- Read git worktree records written relative to their own folder (git 2.48+),
  so a worktree on an unmounted drive in such a repo is still kept.
- Skip the running profile by its own storage folder, not the profile index a
  switch rewrites first; a profile never written to counts as empty, so the
  workspace rule is not switched off by a profile that was never opened.
- Ask for readable thinking again once the plugin check has waited for the
  version, so a slow first probe no longer drops it for the chat's life.
- Launch flag decisions move to their own module; tests use a typed record
  fixture instead of casts.

* fix(native-chat): review round 3 for the visuals sweep and version check

- Resolve a relative git worktree record against its folder's real path, so a
  project added through a link still matches and its worktree is kept.
- A profile with only backups of its data file is a lost file, not a fresh
  profile: it still stops the workspace rule.
- The readable-thinking re-check reads what is known and never starts a
  second version probe.

* fix(native-chat): update the frame's theme ref after render; read the visuals folder pair at once

* test(native-chat): declare agentSession.readVisual on the cross-version agent-session surface

* fix(native-chat): copying a reply keeps its code blocks and indentation

Removing visual lines now closes only the gap each removal leaves, instead of
collapsing blank lines across the whole reply and trimming its indentation; the
visuals folder is checked parent first again so a broken path answers the same
way every time.

Brennan Benson 990c62e6c6 feat(native-chat): attach files to a structured chat on a paired server (#25146)
* feat(native-chat): a paired server keeps a store for chat attachments

A structured chat on a paired Orca server had nowhere to put a file the client
attached. The server now keeps a per-chat attachment store under its userData,
filled through agentSessionAttachment.uploadStart/Append/Commit/Abort and read
back for previews through agentSessionAttachment.read, behind the structured
session gate and advertised as agent-session.attachments.v1.

Nothing records cleanup as owed: a sweep re-derives what may go from the host's
chat records and journal (unfinished uploads after an hour, uploads for a chat
that never existed or that its journal never mentions after a day). The clipboard
RPC's in-flight bookkeeping moves into a shared ChunkedUploadRegistry both use.

* feat(native-chat): upload attached files into a paired server's chat store

Main streams dropped or picked files (fs:uploadPathsToAgentSessionAttachments)
and pasted images (clipboard:saveImageAsTempFile with agentSessionAttachment)
into the chat's store on its paired server, reusing the file-import slice
streamer and pinning every call to the pairing revision and server process.
The browser client's paste takes the same route.

* feat(native-chat): attach files to a structured chat on a paired server

Pasted images, files dropped from Finder/Explorer and the file picker no longer
refuse with "Local attachments are not available for remote sessions." in a
structured chat on a paired server: they upload into that server's chat store and
the chat gets only the stored path. Dropped files show as pending chips at once
so Send waits for them; every attached item carries the server, pairing and chat
it was stored for, and a send to anywhere else drops it with the existing
"changed hosts" notice. Chips and transcript images read stored files back
through the server, never from this machine's disk. An older server gets an
update notice instead of an upload. The terminal-backed chat keeps refusing.

* test(native-chat): type the attachment test doubles without bare casts

* refactor(native-chat): keep the clipboard RPC on its own upload bookkeeping

The chunked upload registry stays for the chat attachment store only, beside it.

* feat(native-chat): claim chat attachments when the host admits a message

A message's references into the host's attachment store are claimed in the same
journal transaction that makes it durable (a direct send, a queued draft, a /clear
carry). The sweep deletes an upload only after marking it in that database while
no claim exists, so a send and a sweep can never both win: a client's send that
names an expired or foreign upload is refused whole with the new attachmentExpired
reason, before anything is recorded. This replaces scanning chat transcripts for
paths.

The store is now <root>/<upload id>/<name>, refuses uploads for chats the host
does not hold, caps stored names in UTF-8 bytes and avoids Windows device names.
The preview read goes through the protected bounded read and the request's reply
budget, so an image too large for one reply is refused instead of closing the
connection.

* feat(native-chat): let structured Claude read the host's chat attachment store

Attached non-image files live outside the workspace; the store root is passed as an
added directory so the agent reads them without asking, the common pattern.

* fix(native-chat): skip a dropped folder before staging walks into it

* fix(native-chat): pin the browser client's chat paste to its server

Every upload call goes to the environment the paste was meant for and checks its
pairing and server process, as the desktop upload does; a re-pair ends the upload
instead of storing the image on another server.

* refactor(native-chat): let the host's claim be the only attachment check

The composer no longer records which server and pairing each attachment came from,
and Send no longer strips attachments it judges foreign: the host refuses an
expired or unknown stored path when it admits the message, which also covers
retries, Stop-restores and queued edits the client check missed. Previews of
stored files route through the chat's own server by path.

Removing a file's chip while it uploads now keeps its @path out of the draft. A
dropped or picked file shows its name and kind on its chip while it uploads, with
no separate progress toast, and files that did not attach are named in one notice.
A rich-text paste into a chat on an older server no longer shows the update notice
beside the pasted text.

* chore(native-chat): keep the claim hook beside the draft consume and fit the line budgets

The submission's claim runs in the same append hook as a draft's consume, owned by
the queued-message collaborator, so the journal store stays within its size limit.
Formats the new files and regenerates the runtime-required English catalog.

* test(native-chat): pin the attachment store grant in the Claude launch, restore upload result types

* fix(native-chat): create the attachment store at install and claim only exact store paths

Claude drops an added directory that does not exist when it starts, so the store
root is created when the host installs it, best effort. A commit keeps its upload
in flight until the rename lands, so a sweep never takes a slow upload's part file.
Only a path under this host's exact store root is claimed and required; any other
mention of a store path is plain text and never refuses the message.

* refactor(native-chat): reuse the newer-Orca notice and drop leftover attach options

An older server's refusal to store attachments uses the notice every other write
it refuses already shows, so one string fewer in every catalog; the attach
callbacks lose an options parameter no caller passes since the provenance check
went.

* fix(native-chat): give a message refused for an expired attachment back to the composer

Sending the same message again can never bring the attachment back, so instead of
a Retry that always fails the message's text and images return to the composer,
as a Stop's withdrawn message does, and the notice says what to remove.

* fix(native-chat): keep uploads across a prompt, say why a file did not attach

An upload that finishes while a prompt card has replaced the composer lands in the
scope's attachment and draft caches, which the composer reads back when it
returns, instead of the unmounted composer. The single failure notice names the
cause the files share, such as the size limit. Rich text pasted into a chat on an
older server no longer flashes an image chip: the chip waits for the server to
take the image. A picked command waits, as Send does, while an attachment is still
uploading.

* fix(native-chat): keep a paste's upload across a prompt; pin the Claude grant hand-off

A paste uploading into a paired server's store keeps its chip live when a prompt
card unmounts the composer, and its result is filed for the composer's return,
as a drop's is. A failure cause ending in full-width punctuation gets no extra
full stop. A runtime test pins that the store root reaches Claude's launch
resolver through the adapter.

* test(native-chat): type the grant hand-off captures without casts

* test(native-chat): pin that the composer files a paste's upload across a prompt

* fix(native-chat): retry a held rename at commit and keep cut names Windows-safe

A commit renames the part file with the Windows retry the app uses elsewhere, so
an antivirus or indexer holding it briefly no longer loses the upload. A name cut
to the byte limit is stripped of trailing dots and spaces again. The upload
pump's result cast states why it holds.

* fix(native-chat): keep attachments still on their way in the pane's attachment cache

A prompt card unmounts the composer, and an attachment still saving or uploading
lived only in that composer: one that came back showed no pending chip, so Send
went out without the file and the file then landed in the next draft. Pending
chips now live in the pane's attachment cache beside settled ones and settle
there whichever composer is showing, so Send waits for them after a remount too.
A stored file's @path goes into the pane's draft cache, which keeps it through an
input-method composition and a remount. A rich-text paste's image is registered
as a hidden pending chip before the server is asked, so Send waits for it from
the start, and it shows only once the server takes it.

* test(native-chat): a dropped file still uploading stays pending across a remount

* fix(native-chat): reveal a rich-text image in a composer that came back; keep caret inserts

A rich-text paste's held image is revealed through the pane's attachment cache,
so a composer a prompt card remounted during the server's answer shows it rather
than holding Send on an invisible chip. A stored file's @path goes in at the
caret while the composer is showing and not composing, as every other attach
does; only mid-composition or after a remount does it go to the pane's draft.

* fix(native-chat): never evict a pane's attachments while a composer shows them or one is on its way

The pane attachment cache is now where chips live, so its 128-scope bound passes
over a scope a mounted composer subscribes to or that still holds a pending
attachment, and evicts the oldest scope nobody uses instead. Protected scopes are
bounded by mounted composers and attachments in flight.

* fix(native-chat): never evict the scope just written when every older one is in use

* fix(native-chat): keep the attachment store out of the RPC method table's imports

The method table is imported far and wide (the SSH relay's CLI included), and the
attachment RPCs pulled in the store, whose preview read loads modules that read
fs constants at load: any test that mocks fs/promises without them failed to
import. The installed store now lives in a small registry module; only the host
wiring loads the store itself.

* refactor(native-chat): the submission hook gets its own module

Merging main added the operation receipt to the queued-message insert, which
put journal-queued-messages.ts over the 300-line limit. The submission hook
only uses the queued-messages object's public methods, so it moves out.

* refactor(native-chat): fit the attachment sweep and paste upload into main's line budgets

After merging main, the record store and the clipboard handlers each ran
a few lines over the 300-line budget. The sweep now asks the record store
whether a chat is recorded through the two lookups it already has
(readable or unreadable) instead of a new id-listing method, and the
paired-server paste upload lives beside the other attachment uploads.
No behavior changes.

* fix(native-chat): pending chips sit beside main's saved draft, which keeps server-stored images

Main now saves a composer's draft (text and settled images) in one store
that survives a reload or quit. This branch kept every chip, settled or
not, in its own pane cache. After the merge the saved draft owns settled
images and the pane cache holds only chips still on their way: they come
back pending in a composer a prompt card remounted, hold Send, settle into
the saved draft whichever composer is showing, and are never saved
themselves, so a restored draft cannot bring back an upload as if it were
attached.

An image a paired server stored for the chat is saved with the draft as
the real image (a pasted one is no longer turned into a "Not kept"
placeholder), and the restore check leaves it to that server, whose claim
at Send refuses one it no longer holds, instead of asking this machine's
disk for a path that only exists on the server.

Also: previews and the pending subscription move into their own small
hooks to fit the line budget, the "local attachments" notice moves to the
composer-target module so the attachments hook no longer pulls in the
upload module's imports, and tests follow main's new mocks.

* test(native-chat): give the claims test main's provider handle and message source

* fix(native-chat): a paste still uploading dies with its tab or workspace

A pasted image still uploading to a paired server sits in the pending
chip cache, which by design outlives the composer and its tab. Removing
the workspace deleted its saved drafts but left those chips, so the
upload finishing afterwards recreated and saved the deleted draft. With
the workspace's tabs gone it had no owner either, so no later workspace
cleanup could ever remove it.

A pending chip now records the owner its draft would have, resolved the
way the draft store resolves one when the chip is added. Workspace
removal and a user's tab close drop pending chips by the same owner,
conversation and tab matches they delete drafts by, and a chip that
settles after its chat's tab closed writes its draft under the owner it
was begun in.

* fix(native-chat): the claim type uses the journal's own SQLite type

* refactor(native-chat): read the pending-image handlers off the composer's attachments

Main's multi-file picker (#23956) and this branch together took NativeChatComposer over the 400-line limit; reading the two pending-image handlers the way the neighbouring ones already are keeps it at the limit.

* test(native-chat): pass the launch-args resolver main now requires in the attachment grant test

* fix(native-chat): grant the attachment store beside folders the saved Claude Arguments add

Main (#25721) now builds additionalDirectories from the user's --add-dir arguments; this branch's attachment-store grant replaced that list instead of adding to it. Both are granted now. Moves the Claude session-id derivation to its own module to keep the resolver under the line limit.

* test(native-chat): run the attachment store's SQLite tests in the Node runtime project

* test(native-chat): follow main's attach ownership recheck (#25749) in the attachment tests

* test(native-chat): a named upload chip still shows when the agent takes no images

* fix(native-chat): a paired-server image paste failure keeps its error apart, as main's notice card does

* fix(native-chat): the attachment sweep reads the chat list directly now that records have no import still owed

Brennan Benson acea59c6d8 refactor(native-chat): remove the records-file and per-chat journal imports (#26038)
* refactor(native-chat): remove the records-file and per-chat journal imports

Every native chat user is on a build that already moved chat records and
history into the app-wide database, so the one-time copies are dead code:
the agent-sessions.json import and its owed-copy flag, the per-chat
journal.db import and the write-queue hold behind it, and the pre-SQLite
log.jsonl notice.

* refactor(native-chat): remove what only the deleted imports used

- JournalHostDatabase.unsyncedTransaction and the synchronous-pragma reset
  that undid it; JOURNAL_SYNCHRONOUS is now module-local. The stranded
  rollback test drives transaction() instead.
- deleteUnpublishedJournalRows and its SQL, plus its test.
- boundJournalStatusText.
- Stale comments naming the removed first-use copy (queued messages,
  send refusal example, JOURNAL_SYNCHRONOUS doc).
- Write-queue and readInOrder comments: a write also lags when issued
  behind one still waiting in line.
- Resolved-append ordering test binds the sink from inside a running read,
  so a resolver that read at handover now fails it.

* test(native-chat): run resolved-append in the SQLite runtime project

Brennan Benson 2f49377425 feat(native-chat): Grok as a structured chat over the Agent Client Protocol (#25225)
* Leave a stopped turn's running tools to the agent's own end

When another writer settles the open turn (a person's Stop), the assembler
now only stops that turn's text and cancels its pending prompts. Running tool
calls stay the agent's: a progress update or completion it reports after the
Stop lands as reported, and whatever is still running settles at the agent's
turn end for that turn, the next turn's open, or the session's end.

An agent's end for an earlier turn while a newer one is open no longer clears
the open turn's activity line or ends its anonymous reply. An unnamed end right
after a Stop ends the stopped turn instead of being dropped. The test rig's
restart no longer writes the dead assembler's window text, matching dispose.

* Pin that a stopped turn's running tools hold budget until the agent's end

* Type the stopped turn's tool progress update as a tool body

* List every event the assembler hands to the decision step

The type-aware lint requires an exhaustive switch with no default case.
Also retitle a Stop test to say what it asserts.

* End a running call as its turn's journal row ends

A call still running when its turn ends takes the state of that turn's
row: a row another writer settled first (a person's Stop) stands, so its
calls read interrupted whatever the provider's later end reports. The
no-ending path that settled calls from the Stop row is gone, since a Stop
now leaves running calls to the provider. Adds the two Spanish strings.

* Say why a Grok turn failed, and keep task rows in Grok's own words

A failed Grok turn ended with no reason on screen: the translator dropped
every copy of Grok's message. The failed turn now gets one status row in
Orca's existing "provider did not accept this message" words with Grok's
reason, read from whichever copy arrives first (the given-up retry, the
turn's end, the prompt's completion notice, or the prompt's error answer);
later copies only fill a reason the row still lacks.

A running background command no longer reads "Background task <id>
started": a task's summary is mapped only once it has settled. A monitor
stays a monitor when the agent reads its output: a frame that names no
kind keeps the known one, and a "[monitor" command is a monitor.

A prompt's turn is marked started, so a late frame for an ended prompt
neither reopens it nor becomes the active turn. A tool's turn is held in
one place at a time.

* Read a monitor from Grok's exact output prefix

* Word a failed Grok turn in Grok's own text, not as a refused message

A turn that started and then failed was told "The provider did not accept
this message", Orca's sentence for a message refused before its turn. The
row now reads as a Codex turn-ending error does: an error status row with the
provider's own words. With no words, the dialect names the failure ("Grok
ended this turn with an error." / "Grok usage limit reached."), else the
agent's display name does.

* Settle a stopped turn's running call as its turn row ended after a restart too

The restart sweep ended every running call by the death evidence alone, so after
a person's Stop with no proof the child died the call read failed under a turn
that read interrupted. The sweep and the live dead-generation settlement now ask
the same rule the assembler does: a call in a turn already settled ends as that
row ended; only a turn still running leaves its calls to the evidence.

* Keep the dead-generation settlement under the line cap

* Register the ACP schema verify step in the PR preflight phase test

* refactor(agent-session): one required agent registry; declarations admit what they claim

A StructuredAgentRegistry, built once from the {definition, adapter}
registrations, is now a required host dependency and the router routes with
it. The adapter interface loses its optional router-only capabilities?() and
definition?(); every reader (options at rest, thread goal, rewind, the
/compact handover) asks the registry. A live session still narrows rewind
through the adapter, and the host combines declared and narrowed in one
helper. The registry refuses a registration that declares compact, a thread
goal or rewind without the adapter method behind it.

/compact is admitted by the declared capability, so an agent that declares
compact:false gets the commandRefused fact instead of a thrown error.

Also: the cut-turn notice names the agent from the catalog, create-support
builds the account home through agentSessionAccountHome, and the turn
status text older clients read names the session's agent instead of
defaulting to Codex (Claude/Codex text unchanged).

* Read ACP permissions, session events and prompt errors through the protocol client's own types

The translator now reads a permission request with the client's lenient reader, a session update
with its session-event reader, and takes only the agent's own error answer as a failed prompt's
reason, so an Orca-side error never reads as the provider's words. Tests cover protocol values
newer than this build.

* refactor(agent-session): the router applies the declared rewind itself

The router holds the registry, so its rewindSupport answers the owner's
declared rewind narrowed by the adapter, in one place no reader can bypass.
The host-side combining helper is gone; readers ask the adapter they hold.

* test(agent-session): register the agents the merged-in tests now need

The adoption replay test builds its host over this build's registered agents
instead of an adapter definition method, and the stored-form test passes the
stored agents the record guard now requires.

* chore(agent-session): the registry is the one lookup; drop the test-only empty capability record

* fix(agent-session): keep "dismiss all" restart offers dismissed for the desktop

The desktop renderer calls the restart methods as a paired runtime client
without the registered-agents capability, so it was handed a Claude/Codex
audience and its "dismiss all" took the scoped path: no dismissal fence and
no clearing of unwritten teardown witnesses, so a late teardown write could
bring a dismissed offer back.

The audience is now derived against this host's registry: a client that can
show every agent the host registered gets none, and dismisses exactly as
before (one fence for every offer). A client that truly cannot show some
agent still gets a final dismissal for what it sees: each cleared session is
fenced on its own (bounded, superseded by a dismiss-all fence) and only the
witnesses of agents it sees are dropped.

One predicate now answers which agents a client renders, for both tab
projection and restart offers; the Claude capability rule is folded in.

* fix(agent-session): a changed agent definition never hides that agent's chats

A record was readable only if every handle used the transport its agent's
definition declares today, and its account variable was declared by some
registered agent. A later build that drives the same agent over another
protocol, or under a renamed variable, would have set every existing chat of
that agent aside: no tab, no history, no error.

Readability now asks only that the record agree with itself: its agent is
registered, every handle shares one namespace owned by that agent, and the
account variable is a well-formed name. Whether this build can drive it (the
chain's transport is the one the agent speaks, and the account variable is
that agent's own, since it becomes the child's environment) is decided in
performAttach, the one admission every start of every agent passes through,
and refused there as hostUnsupported. A record pinning another agent's
variable is refused the same way rather than passing because some agent
declares it.

* refactor(agent-session): each agent's registration says where it runs and which account it pins

createSupport, create and the model catalog's account read still chose a
location rule and an account resolver by name (Claude, Codex, else none),
so a new agent would have needed a third branch beside the registration
list that already decides storage, routing and publication.

Each runtime registration now carries supportsLocation(location) and
resolveAccountHomePath({ launchEnv, location, purpose, workspacePath }),
and Claude's and Codex's rules move into their entries unchanged: a read
still syncs no home and starts no bridge, a Codex launch still trusts the
workspace first, and WSL locations resolve as before. The list exists
before the host is built, so none of these reads installs the host, and an
agent the list does not hold is answered no without opening the journal.

* test(agent-session): drop a duplicate registry key; keep fences out of the capsule state

A spread input already carries the registry, so the explicit key was
overwritten (TS2783). The session-fence helper now returns only the fence,
not the capsule state it was given.

* fix(agent-session): a scoped dismiss-all persists no per-session fence

The per-session dismissal fence added a forever-persisted capsule field
with an arbitrary cap that served no caller: only the local desktop calls
the restart methods, and on a host whose agents it all shows it gets no
audience and takes the unscoped, fenced dismissal. A scoped dismiss-all
(a caller that cannot show some registered agent) keeps that agent's
offers, clears only its audience's unwritten witnesses, and writes no
fence; a late write from this process is serialized behind it. The field
never left this unreleased branch.

* fix(agent-session): refuse an attach whose agent is not the session's own

The start check judges the record's agent while the router starts the adapter of params.agent, and the attach wire let the two differ. Admission now refuses agent !== provider as requestMalformed, so the agent checked is the agent started. Every host-built attach already sets them equal.

* fix(agent-session): offer to start a chat only when the start would accept it

The restart offer, a failure's retryable flag and the pre-send check asked only whether the adapter runs the chat's location, while the start also refuses a record this build cannot drive; such a chat was offered Resume and its Retry failed forever. One host predicate, hostCanStartRecord (location support and agentDrivesSession), now answers all four; adapterSupportsRecord stays the reader gate, and an undrivable chat's offer is kept, not retired.

* fix(agent-session): the model-catalog probe uses a record's account only if this build drives it

A record-scoped catalog read started the agent's lister under the record's account path whatever variable the record pinned. It now uses that path only when agentDrivesSession holds, and otherwise resolves the account as for a read with no record.

* refactor(agent-session): the record store admits agent ids; comments say where transport is checked

The store only ever asked whether an agent is registered, so its admission list is now the registered ids; the definition is the one home of an agent's transport and account variable. Comments that said the record store checks transport, and one that cited a nonexistent function, now point at agentDrivesSession and the attach admission. The isPersistedAgentSessionRecord(value, agents) call shape and the test fixture the cross-version probe imports are kept.

* docs(agent-session): the record store admits the registered agents' ids

* refactor(native-chat): Grok's registration declares where it runs; ACP no longer borrows Codex's location rule

The rule a self-supervised agent child runs under (this machine, no WSL, Windows only with process
start-time proof) is its own module that Codex and the ACP adapter both use. Grok's registration
takes the full account-home resolver signature, and D3's tests build hosts with the agent registry.

* fix(native-chat): Grok follows the ACP runtime's request contract and the managed process's close

A request the agent or a Stop cancels is answered with the agent's own cancelled reply by the code that
owns it (the runtime no longer answers a silent handler), so a Stop needs no separate decline pass. A
permission answer still being saved when the agent stopped waiting is reported unconfirmed, since the
protocol already answered it cancelled. Cancelling the agent's own turn is the plain cancel. Request
rows are matched under their generation-scoped ids. A refusal's reason comes from the dialect's wording
path. The child drops its own stderr tail and close policy for the managed process's, and a close
whose process tree was not proven gone is reported as the adapter contract asks.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok chat Orca already holds resumes without writing what Grok replays

A chat with a saved Grok session reattaches with session/resume where the agent offers it, else
session/load. Either way the call runs inside the translator's load window, so what Grok sends while
it reattaches (its saved exchange, a task the dead process left running, ended by the restart) opens
no turn and writes no row; only context usage reads on. A reply an Orca or Grok crash cut short is no
longer completed from Grok's saved history: it reads like a Claude or Codex chat's, with the existing
notice. The attach window also closes after a failed attach, and a created session that session/resume
reports missing is replaced like one session/load reports missing.

The replay reconciliation is removed: the lane no longer reads the journal, and D3's replayed-input
grammar test and completed-turn check in the assembler go with it.

* refactor(native-chat): a failed Grok reattach needs no window close of its own; its lane is replaced

* test(native-chat): D3's merged tests use the shipped declarations and the launch options main requires

* fix(native-chat): typecheck fallout of the base merges; any agent's empty chat is reusable

Main's idle-empty-chat lookup and launch join now take any registered agent, as the rest of the
launch path does. The refusal check moved into the prompt turns and the prompt-block conversion beside
the turns that send it, keeping both files in their line limit.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok Stop ends the process once Grok settles its turn; the next send resumes

Grok's session/cancel ends only the running turn: work it already moved to the background keeps
running and can begin a turn of its own after the person pressed Stop. Stop is now a session
boundary, as it is for Claude: the cancel answers open requests and lets Grok end the turn, the host
waits a bounded grace for that, then ends the process; the next send relaunches and resumes.
The adapter's own bounded close of a turn Grok began is gone. Its named-turn check stays: the host
ends the session unless the provider declines a Stop naming a turn that has since ended.

* test(native-chat): a Grok Stop ends the process only after Grok answered the cancel

* fix(native-chat): Steer on a Grok card cancels the running prompt, then sends it

A send that reached Grok while a prompt ran was held in the adapter until that turn ended: Steer
on a queued card took the card out of the host's editable queue and meant 'send after this turn'.
It now cancels the running prompt (session/cancel; the session stays) and sends as the next prompt
once Grok answers the cancel, as the common pattern does; a steer behind another cancels it in
turn, so the last one runs. The adapter holds a send only while that cancel lands, so its general
held-send queue and its holdsDispatch report are gone (every send it holds has its turn open in
the journal). An older client's mid-turn send takes the same path. capabilities.steering is
unchanged and still unread.

* refactor(native-chat): a close or Stop cancels a start through the acquire's own abort signal

The host owns the acquire it runs, so it now owns its cancellation: each attach's acquire gets an
AbortSignal, aborted from outside the session's queue by a close and by a Stop admitted now (the
same admission rule as before). The optional abandonStart adapter hook, the router's fan-out to
every adapter and the ACP adapter's session-keyed start map are gone; the ACP adapter keeps an
unkeyed set of starts only so quit can prove their children gone, and keeps a failed start's
unproven child until its exit is proven.
The hook also let a later close ask that child again. The host now does that from state it holds:
a close of a chat with no live child whose record still names an owner process with no death
evidence asks the adapter to release it. The answer is not recorded as proof (the lease probe
does that), so an owner pid an earlier Orca left is never killed or marked gone. Claude and Codex
ignore the signal and hold no such child; their release is a no-op (tested).

* fix(native-chat): a Grok crash that closes stdout before its exit still ends with Grok's last words

On macOS and Linux the agent's stdout ends before its exit is observed, with or without the
supervisor's EOF forwarding, so the connection's loss closed the journal first and its error text
became the session's ended reason, dropping Grok's stderr. The reason is now read at the proven
exit: the agent's last words when it left any, else why the connection closed. The failure already
carried them. Comments that assumed the exit comes first, that early frames past the cap refuse the
start, and that dispatch re-checks image support are corrected.

* fix(native-chat): nothing Grok sends while a held chat reattaches is written, marked as replay or not

The reattach window relied on the dialect's replay verdict, and Grok's frames read as live unless
they carry isReplay, so an unmarked chat frame during session/resume opened a turn that never
ended. D3 now marks every frame inside the window as replay before the translator reads it, so the
translator keeps only context usage whatever the agent marked; options and commands are still
adopted. The translator's load semantics are unchanged.

* test(native-chat): a Stop after a resume finds no turn an unmarked old reply opened

* test(native-chat): a resumed Grok chat keeps its last context reading; the resume refreshes only the window

* test(native-chat): a Grok background task a Stop ended reads as stopped reporting

* refactor(native-chat): quit's stop of each start answers through one promise kind

* fix(native-chat): quit aborts every start the host has in flight before draining attaches

A Grok that never answered its handshake held quit until the start's own 60 s bound, past the
20 s quit deadline. The host's teardown now aborts each in-flight acquire (and any the drain
still begins), so the adapter's own quit controller and its map of starts are gone: a start
has one canceller, the host's signal.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok start's abort stops reaching its child once the start has returned

The listener stayed on the host's signal until the attach finished committing, so a Close in that
window killed the now-live child behind the host's back and it read as Grok crashing. The start
now detaches it when it ends; a later Close goes through the session's own stop.

* fix(native-chat): a close or Stop during any attach phase stops the start before it launches

The attach began its abort controller only after reconciling leases, resolving recovery and
probing the previous owner, so a close or admitted Stop in those phases reached nothing and Grok
launched anyway. The controller now begins first, and the acquisition checks it before asking the
adapter to start.

* test(native-chat): a close during the attach's owner probe asks no adapter to start

Also renames the close test after the hook it no longer exercises.

* test(native-chat): a close's re-ask closes a Claude or Codex child a failed cleanup left

The re-ask is not a no-op for them: when the adapter still holds the child its cleanup could not
prove gone, the close stops it again as a requested close, and Claude persists the handle of the
conversation it ran so the next send resumes it. Corrects the tests' and comment's wording; the
close awaits the re-ask, bounded by each adapter's kill ladder.

* fix(native-chat): Steer during a turn Grok began itself cancels it and sends once it ends

A send while Grok ran a turn of its own (a background task waking it) went straight to Grok, which
queued it behind that turn where Orca could no longer withdraw it, while Stop treated the same turn
as the running reply. The send now waits as a steer, the turn is cancelled once, and the message
goes when the turn ends; a Stop withdraws it and an exit rejects it as never sent.

* test(native-chat): a steer whose cancel Grok never answers ends Grok and is rejected as never sent

Pins the bounded steer cancel kept from the runtime: past the bound the connection closes, the
running reply reads unverifiable, Grok's end reads as its exit, and the waiting steer is rejected
as never sent.

* fix(native-chat): a Grok crash stays a crash when a stop lands before its exit is proven

After the connection broke and the close could not prove Grok's exit, any later stop Orca asked
for (the next start, a Stop, a Close) marked the child as closed by Orca, so the crash read as a
requested close and Grok's last words were dropped; a send meanwhile was recorded unconfirmed.
The connection loss now decides the cause, and a send on that session is rejected as never sent.

* test(native-chat): fixtures this PR's registered Grok and desktop capability made stale

CI's unit shards failed on tests outside the PR's own lists. Each encodes something this PR changes
on purpose: Grok is now a registered agent (the seam test's unregistered agent is now Cursor); the
desktop now advertises registered agents (the restart-offer tests' older client drops that
capability explicitly); the attach context carries the start's abort controllers (the forget-status
double gains them); and the ACP real-host test rig sends to the host directly (listed beside the
other real-host rig in the send ratchet).

* fix(native-chat): a start quit stops is not the queued message's start failure

With quit now aborting a start it would have waited for, the delivery step recorded the aborted
start as the message's failure ("couldn't restart"). After quit has stopped delivery, the step
leaves the message to quit, which settles it as a close does ("The chat closed before this message
was sent."). The test that pinned quit waiting for that start and stopping its child now pins that
nothing is launched behind quit.

* fix(native-chat): a message sent after a Stop or close aborted a start gets its own start

A start the host aborts (an admitted Stop, a close, or quit) returned its refusal to the delivery
loop, which then rejected whatever was queued at that moment with "couldn't restart", including a
message the user sent after the Stop. The attach now reports that the host aborted it, and the loop
re-derives from the journal instead: what the Stop or close withdrew is already settled, a message
accepted since gets a start of its own, and quit's next step stops the loop. This replaces the
quit-only carve-out with the same rule for every abort and every agent.

* test(native-chat): the message sent after an aborted start is answered, so no settlement outlives the test

* fix(native-chat): a Grok model pick Grok never answers no longer holds Stop or Close

The pick runs on the session's queue. It now registers in the host's out-of-queue
abort registry beside a start, so a close, an admitted Stop or quit abandons it, and
the ACP adapter bounds it at 30 s like Claude and Codex. A late answer is still adopted.

* fix(agent-launch): a phone's launch opens a terminal for an agent whose chat it cannot show

agent.launch now reads the caller's capabilities by the rule tabs and restart offers
use (clientRendersStructuredAgent). A phone without registered-agents.v1 gets Grok as
a terminal again, as on main; the host's own callers and desktop clients are unchanged.

* fix(acp): strip every agent hook variable from the ACP child, from the shared list

ACP_CHILD_ENV_TO_DELETE was a second copy of the hook runtime keys that missed
ORCA_AGENT_HOOK_TRANSPORT; it now spreads AGENT_HOOK_RUNTIME_ENV_KEYS beside the pane
identity keys.

* refactor(native-chat): the mutation context carries the provider-wait registry itself

Keeps the host file within its line limit; one field instead of two closures over it.

* fix(agent-launch): agent.launch.v2 still vouches for Claude and Codex chats

The caller rule from the previous commit also turned Claude and Codex into terminals
for a client advertising only agent.launch.v2, whose contract says it opens a chat
(mobile retry-authority tests). Only an agent beyond those two now needs the client to
read it (clientRendersStructuredAgent); the test fixtures go back to what they were.

* refactor(native-chat): drop saved-history adoption from the timeline assembler

The common pattern discards the history a provider replays while loading a
session, so the assembler has no use for an input.history event.

* refactor(acp): drop session/load history adoption from the translator

The common pattern discards the history an agent replays during session/load,
keeping only what it says about the context window. Remove the adoption path
(acp-history-adoption.ts, the adopt option, and the historical background-task
liveness rewrite it fed) so load replay is always dropped except usage.

* refactor(native-chat): a pending input is only Orca's send now

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: drop the comment naming the
provider's saved message, and make requestedAt required since every pending
input comes from input.accepted.

* test(acp): keep the task-result status table on live frames

Review follow-up to the adoption removal: the result-status mapping was only
tested through adopted history, so run the same table on live frames, and
cover an unmarked task notice during a load being dropped.

* test(acp): a frame helper for a shell command Grok is running

* fix(acp): a Grok crash settles through the host's provider-exit batch, scoped to the turn it ended

A Grok crash ended the journal unverifiable before the adapter reported the exit, so the host's
provider-exit settlement found no running turn and wrote nothing: the adapter's failure (with
Grok's last words) never reached the journal, and a later stale-session pass wrote a bare,
thread-scoped cut-short row, so the partial reply was not folded as Claude's and Codex's are.

At a proven exit the ACP lane now ends its running turn interrupted at the exit instant, as the
host's exit contract expects of a child's own translator (Codex's does the same). When Grok's
stdout closed first (every POSIX crash), the turn is unverifiable only until the exit is proven:
the host's provider-exit settlement now takes the exit as proof naming the child's fence and
revises what that child left unverifiable in the same batch, with the turn-scoped row and the
adapter's failure. Claude and Codex write no unverifiable turn of a live child except a command
whose hand-off is in doubt; that turn is now revised at the exit instead of at the next open.

* test(acp): a crash seen first leaves the host no Grok turn to revise

* refactor(native-chat): what a gone generation left unfinished gets its own module

The settlement file passed 300 lines with the exit-proof revision. The unfinished-work reads
(capture, interrupted-by-the-exit, in-progress) are their own concept and move out unchanged,
apart from the exit proof they now take.

* refactor(native-chat): a watched exit revises what its child left unverifiable without reading Stop marks

An exit's own instant is the turn's end, so the revision needs only each row's fence: the
settlement's journal type gains itemFence alone, and the host test fakes say so.

* test(native-chat): drop the duplicate itemFence on the fake that already had one

* test(claude, codex): an exit whose stdout ended first still reports as it always did

The provider supervisor now ends Orca's stdout when the agent's ends, so on every crash EOF
arrives before the exit is seen. Claude's and Codex's connections report nothing at EOF and
report the exit, with its usual reason, once it is seen.

* fix(acp): reopen a chat with session/load, as the common pattern does

An agent that offers both now reloads its session instead of resuming it; the
reattach window still discards what it replays except context usage.

* fix(acp): drop the 60 s handshake bound; an abort fails the start's waits at once

Neither common design bounds an ACP handshake: Close, Stop and quit end a start
that never answers. The abort now also closes the connection, as a kill there
does, so the start settles even before the child's exit is proven. The
host-stopped start refusal only this bound produced goes with it; the idle
sweep keeps its words.

* fix(acp): a Stop naming an ended turn follows Claude's rule

It still stops nothing while another turn is live, but in the gap before a
follow-up's turn opens, which no client can name, it now stops what is in
flight and the session ends, as a Claude Stop does.

* fix(native-chat): a close no longer re-asks a failed start's unproven child

Neither common design retries that stop at Close, and Orca's Claude contract
re-asks only at the next start and at quit. The ACP adapter keeps the child
until its exit is proven and asks it again there, as Claude does.

* fix(acp): a message sent during a turn the agent began itself goes at once

Both common designs send it straight to the agent with no cancel; only Orca's
own running prompt is steered (cancelled, then re-prompted).

* test(native-chat): dismiss-all through a remote client's audience keeps a newer Orca's offer

Uses an audience production sends (one that cannot show every agent), per review.

* fix(acp): launch Grok as `grok agent stdio`, without the update and leader flags

The common pattern passes neither --no-auto-update, --no-leader nor
GROK_DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER; full access still adds --always-approve.

* fix(acp): an agent that ends its stdout, or answers unreadably, is not a lost connection

As in the common pattern, only a broken stdin (or Orca's own close) ends the
agent; one that closed its output but can still be written to stays until a
Stop, a close or its exit. The provider supervisor goes back to its base
content, so Claude and Codex no longer get the forwarded stdout end either.

* fix(native-chat): a person's close joining a failed one still binds the turn its child end cuts

On main every close of the chat writes its own Stop and settle. Here a later close joins the
first and writes no row, and the first's settle closed when its kill failed, so a turn that opened
in between and was cut by the next close read as failed. A person's close joining a person's close
whose Stop opened a settle now reopens that settle until its attempt is done.

Tests: a close whose kill failed still closes its settle; a turn opened between a failed close and
the next reads as the person's cancellation (each fails without its half of the fix).

* test(native-chat): Grok opens as a chat only behind the structured-chat setting

agent.launch and orchestration worker-start read the same setting as the
renderer route; pin both states for Grok on each. The setting's description no
longer names only Codex and Claude, in every catalog.

* docs(acp): generic ACP comments say what holds for every agent, not Grok

Stop ends the session for every ACP agent, as in the common pattern; the
adoption hook comment goes (adoption is not planned); a failed start's child is
retried at the next start or quit.

* test(claude, codex): type the EOF-before-exit test's streams; the supervisor no longer forwards EOF

The Claude test wrote to the child's stdout and stderr through their Readable
type, which the node typecheck rejects; it now holds its own PassThrough
streams. The comments no longer credit the reverted supervisor change.

* feat(acp): a steer's cancel asks once and never ends the agent

The runtime had one cancel: send session/cancel, wait at most 10 s for Orca's prompt to settle,
then close the connection, which ends the agent. A steer used it too, so a slow agent lost its
process just because the person added a message. requestSteerCancel() now sends session/cancel
once per prompt, cancels the agent's open requests and answers later permissions cancelled, and
never bounds or closes: the prompt's own reply ends it and the steer's prompt follows. cancel()
stays the Stop: bounded, then close. A Stop after a steer still bounds and closes. Both cancel
paths move into acp-prompt-cancel.ts over one cancel channel.

* chore(native-chat): keep the record store and recovery capsule under max-lines after the main merge

* fix(acp): a repeated steer shares the cancel in flight; say what the caller owns

Per review: a second steer before the first write lands returns that write instead of resolving
early. The steer's JSDoc says the wait for the prompt's reply is unbounded and that a prompt that
fails instead must not take the steer until the caller rebuilds the session; the Stop's says a
prompt that settles in time leaves the agent for the Stop's owner to end. The steer test now gives
the runtime a handler that would allow: the open permission's signal aborts and the late one never
reaches it.

* fix(native-chat): drop the stopDelivery the A3 merge doubled

* fix(acp): a steer's cancel asks Grok once and never ends it

A steer now uses D1's notify-only cancel. Two messages sent during a reply Grok began itself
cut that reply, as the common pattern does, and then both run; before, the queued first
message could not answer the bounded cancel and Orca ended Grok although Grok answered.
A Stop keeps the bounded cancel and its 4 s grace.

* fix(acp): a permission Grok asks with no prompt of Orca's running is declined

During a turn Grok began itself nobody asked it to act, so the request is answered
cancelled at once instead of opening a card that waits, as the common pattern does.

* fix(acp): a Grok that dies while starting is reported with its own last words

A dying process's stdout ends before its exit is seen, so the start failed as a closed
connection and Grok's stderr was lost. A start whose connection closed now waits, bounded by
the Stop grace (or a Close/Stop), for the exit before it is told.

* test: a Stop after a steer sends its own cancel; drop the import the A3 merge doubled

* test(native-chat): main's Stop-note test builds its turn context with the agent registry

* test(claude): say why the close test's fake child cast is safe

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity and turn context the current way

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle; the turn context also needs this branch's agent registry.

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity with the opaque handle

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle.

* test(ratchet): require src/main/provider-process now that it has landed

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 and this branch both added the import at different lines; the merge kept both.

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 made the same fix as this branch at a different line; the merge kept both imports.

* feat(native-chat): record a fresh provider conversation that replaced one the agent could not restore

A chat whose saved conversation the agent cannot reopen can now continue in a
fresh one: the handle chain records the new conversation as a creation that
replaces the lost one (which, why, and when), keeping every earlier link.

Rows keep a shape older builds read: the stored chain starts at the latest
replacement and carries the earlier links inside it.

* test(native-chat): build this stack's journal identities with main's opaque provider handle

Main's #24991 replaced the {kind, ...} handle with {transport, agent, nativeId}; three test
files from this stack still wrote the old shape. Same lines the downstream ACP branch uses.

* docs(acp): every reattach drops the agent's replay, not only for a chat the journal holds

* refactor(native-chat): store a replaced conversation flat; refuse it where older builds read the row

Older builds only read Claude and Codex records, so the nested stored form
protected rows no replacement can reach while adding a cap mismatch after a
downgrade. Store the chain as held, refuse a replacement in a Claude or Codex
chain until one has a stored shape older builds read, and refuse a supersession
key on a replacement that names no creation in the chain.

* refactor(native-chat): read hosts' structured agents from the app-shell services

Main grew the startup hydration hook to its line limit; the host agents sync is an app-lifetime subscription like the structured session tabs sync beside it, so it moves there.

* Use current provider handles in transition tests

* Use current provider handles in timeline fixtures

* test(native-chat): prove replacement rows survive downgrade and re-upgrade

* Require the ACP directory in the runtime import check

* test(ratchet): require src/main/acp now that this PR lands it

* feat(acp): a saved session the agent cannot reopen continues in a new one, with one warning row

When session/load (or session/resume) of a saved ACP session fails, the chat starts a new session and records it as a creation that replaces the lost one (#25747's 'replaces' link), and writes one warning row that the agent no longer remembers the earlier messages. A created session the agent reports missing is still superseded silently; a signed-out agent or a start that is over (Close, Stop, a lost agent) still fails the start.

* chore(acp): rewrap the acquire header comment

* test(acp): a start closed while the agent reopens fails without opening or announcing a new session

* Let ACP connections own their supervised agent process

* Preserve ACP cleanup evidence and isolate exit observers

* Expose ACP cleanup observations and type the permission fixture

* refactor(native-chat): the registered-agents capability lives in its own module

Main's growth put protocol-version.ts one counted line over its 300-line limit once the capability
was added; like main's other per-feature capabilities, it now has its own module, and importers read
it from there.

* refactor(acp): one connection owns the Grok process and its protocol

D3 now opens each ACP agent through createAcpAgentConnection (ACP-ALIGN #25810): one object spawns the
process on the execution host, owns its stdio and protocol, and reports its proven exit. It is built and
tracked before the handshake, so a start's abort (Close, Stop, quit) still reaches it, and a failed start
keeps that same connection for the next close to retry rather than spawning another process.

Deleted: the spawnAcpStructuredChild wrapper and its test, the raw-stream runtime assembly, the caller's
exit -> runtime.close wiring, the stdout-EOF heuristic (the connection no longer treats stdout EOF as
exit), and the 10 s steer/Stop cancel bound with requestSteerCancel. Reader control maps to
pauseReading/resumeReading; a close is connection.close after the host's existing 4 s Stop grace.

The adapter owns what the protocol no longer does: one session/cancel per running prompt however many
steers arrive (cleared with that send's settlement, retried after a failed write), and a Stop or steer
answers every open agent request the person has not already answered with the agent's own cancelled
reply. An answer already being saved when the Stop lands is sent.

Tests: blocked cancel write never holds Stop's grace, two quick steers send one cancel, a failed cancel
write is retried, a real process exiting while a child holds its stdout ends the session, and the
existing start-abort, retention, crash, connection-loss and reload-failure suites on the new rig.

* fix(acp): Grok signs in on its own machine with its API key or cached sign-in

When Grok reports that it needs authentication, Orca now names a sign-in method on the machine Grok runs
on, read from the same environment Grok was launched with: xai.api_key when XAI_API_KEY is set there and
Grok offers that method, else cached_token when Grok offers it, else none and the chat keeps the existing
not-signed-in refusal. The rule lives in Grok's launch spec; the adapter applies any agent's rule for new
and reopened sessions through the protocol client's caller-named method (authenticate, then retry once).
No new sign-in UI; interactive methods are never chosen.

* fix(acp): the adapter decides which of Grok's requests reach the person

The turn owner now admits every agent request, permission or question, from its own turn state: a
request reaches the person only while Orca's prompt runs and no steer or Stop is cutting it short (a
question may also come from a turn Grok began itself, until a Stop). Anything else gets the agent's
own cancelled reply and opens no card, so a question arriving after Stop or during a steer never
appears. A steer, like a Stop, withdraws the requests already open; an answer already being saved is
still sent. The protocol client's abort-on-cancel path is no longer used: after the connection
change its request signal aborts only when the connection closes.

* fix(acp): a plan Grok proposes shows as a plan, with no approval card

When Grok leaves plan mode it asks the client to approve its plan (x.ai/exit_plan_mode). Orca showed a
blocking 'Approve plan / Request changes' card for it; the common pattern has no such gate. Now the
plan goes into the chat's existing Plan row (the plan-document status row Codex and ACP plan updates
already use) and the request is answered at once with 'abandoned' plus feedback telling Grok to stop and
wait for the person's feedback or a request to implement it in a later turn, so nothing is approved on
the person's behalf. Dialects gain settleRequest for requests answered without asking anyone.

* fix(orchestration): worker-start opens a Grok worker in a terminal, as before

With the structured chat setting on, worker-start decided 'structured' for Grok and then the structured
worker factory (Claude and Codex only) refused it, so the start failed; main opened a terminal Grok
worker. Worker-start now decides with no registered agents beyond Claude and Codex, so Grok gets a
terminal worker as before. agent.launch and the app's own launches still open Grok as a structured
chat. Temporary until structured workers take registered agents.

* fix(acp): a prompt answer Orca can't read ends the turn instead of hanging it

A session/prompt rejection that was not the agent's own error answer (an answer that fails Orca's
schema, or one too large to read) left the turn running: the next message became a steer with nothing
to cancel and was never sent or settled, and Stop waited its full grace. As in the common pattern, any
prompt failure now ends the turn as failed (a failed-turn row without words, since none are the
agent's) and settles the send, so the next message goes. Only a closed connection keeps the send
running, for the connection-loss path to settle.

* fix(acp): send Grok's prompt-identity extension only to agents that echo it

session/prompt carried _meta {promptId, requestId} for every ACP agent, though only Grok's dialect
echoes it (injectedPromptIdentity). Now only an agent whose dialect declares it gets the extension;
other ACP agents get a plain prompt.

* refactor(native-chat): the registered-agents capability lives in protocol-version again, as on main

This reverts 0ef6d21815. That commit moved the capability to its own module only because main's
protocol-version.ts was then one counted line over its limit; main now defines it there itself within
the limit, and main's new restart test imports it from there. Main's test also reads the desktop's
capability list as an older client; on this branch the desktop advertises registered agents, so its
older client is that list without this one capability.

* test(acp): read the sign-in method with a schema, not a type assertion

* refactor(native-chat): composer transport and Stop control in their own modules

Main's rewind change (#19338) brought NativeChatStructuredSession.tsx and use-structured-agent-session.ts
to their line limits, leaving no room for this branch's image-acceptance and unpublished-Stop lines.
The composer's transport (sends, commands, options, image acceptance) moves to
use-native-chat-structured-composer-transport.ts, and whether Stop shows and what it does moves to
structured-agent-session-stop-control.ts. Behavior is unchanged; the runtime cast on the composer's
'local' | 'remote' is now a typed return.

* test(native-chat): read registered agents by id, as main's structuredAgentsReadBy now takes

Main's A3 squash changed structuredAgentsReadBy to take agent ids; this branch's test still passed
{ agent } objects (CI typecheck TS2322).

* fix(acp): a first reopen warns when Grok forgets a chat that exchanged turns

A Grok session the chat created was treated as one Grok never saved, so
when Grok reported it missing on the chat's first reopen, Orca swapped in
a fresh session silently, even after completed exchanges: the person saw
the old messages while Grok had forgotten them.

The launch now counts a created session as never saved only when the
chat's journal, read at the failed reopen, holds no turn of that Grok
session; anything else, an unreadable journal included, takes the normal
path: the fresh session is recorded as replacing the old one and the one
warning row is written.

* fix(acp): a start writes the warning row an earlier attach failure dropped

The row saying Grok forgot the chat was written only into the attach's
deferred sink, while the fresh session's link was saved earlier. An attach
failure, quit or crash in between dropped the row forever.

Every start now derives the owed rows: each conversation the chain says was
lost to a failed restore gets its row unless the chat's journal already holds
it. The row now names the lost conversation rather than the fresh session, so
a row an unused replacement wrote still counts after Grok supersedes it.

* fix(acp): a question during a turn the agent began itself gets its cancelled reply

A question or other card-opening request the agent sends while no prompt of
Orca's runs (a turn it began itself, as when a background task wakes it) now
gets the agent's own cancelled reply and opens no card, the same rule
permissions already follow there. Nobody is waiting on that turn. A plan the
agent shares in it is still shown.

* test(native-chat): import the unfinished-work capture from the module that owns it

Main's reasoning sweep test (#19221) imported it from the dead-generation settlement, which
this branch split it out of.

* refactor(native-chat): keep the session host within its line budget after main's Stop work

Main's #25949 left the host at exactly its 300-line budget, and this branch's acquire-abort wiring
adds one line. The reveal module now comes in as a namespace import, as the host already does for
its other helper modules, and the earlier reorder of two type imports is undone.

* test(codex): move the stdout-before-exit test into its own file

Main's connection test file is at its 800-line test budget, and this branch's exit-order test
pushed it over (CI lint, max-lines).

* fix(acp): cancel a running turn before a close, dispose or quit ends the agent

Closing a tab, disposing a session or quitting while an ACP agent's turn ran
killed the process without asking the agent to cancel first. A requested
close now does what a Stop does: withdraw the agent's open requests and held
steers, send session/cancel once, and wait for the turn to end, bounded by
the Stop's grace (4 s), before closing the process. A close that follows a
Stop sends no second cancel and waits only what is left of that Stop's grace.
An idle close, a lost connection and a sink-failure force close are
unchanged. The cancel-and-wait moves to acp-structured-stop.ts, shared by
Stop and close.

* test(codex): pass resolveLaunchArgs in the stopped-send-order test so typecheck passes

Main's typecheck fails here too: #25721 made resolveLaunchArgs required and
this test (#25051) predates it. Same line, same place as the open main fix
(#25977), so merging main after it lands is a no-op.

* test(native-chat): run the close-aborts-start test on the Node runtime, as its SQLite journal fixture requires

* refactor(native-chat): the Stop control reads the outbox itself, so the chat hook stays within its line limit

* Keep the session host under the line cap after main's two new delegates

Pass the lifetime's conversation opener to reveal directly; it is already passed unbound to the mutation context.

Brennan Benson 9fdd90ffa7 feat(orchestration): a native chat can be a dispatch worker, like a terminal agent (#22972)
* feat(native-chat): a queued card can record a Dispatch's task as its source

A chat worker's task is held in the chat's queue like any agent message, so
the card needs to say which Dispatch it is from: the sender, run, task and
Dispatch ids. An older build reads an unknown kind as the person's card and
sends it as written.

* feat(orchestration): a chat can be a dispatch worker, like a terminal agent

`dispatch --to orca_session_id:<id>` and `worker-start --terminal
orca_session_id:<id>` now accept a chat on this host instead of refusing it.

- The chat is refused only where mail to it would be: unknown, a provider id,
  another host, or closed. A chat can't be its own coordinator's worker.
- Its task goes through sendAgentTurn as a queued send, as mail notices do:
  an idle chat starts a turn, a busy one holds a card naming the Dispatch.
  The operation id is derived from the Dispatch, so a resend replays.
- worker-start reads that outcome as the terminal path reads its write; a
  card held behind a running turn is handed over with its start unobserved.
- The Dispatch names the chat by its /clear root, with no pane or process,
  and records its Orca session id, so its own sub-dispatches nest under it.
- Mail to dispatch:<id> reaches the chat; worker-show/list/read read the
  chat's session records; stop and abandon never close the chat; closing the
  chat fails its Dispatch as closing a terminal does.
- A dispatch preamble for a structured session names the CLI the structured
  mail lane names.

* test(orchestration): a chat worker's reach, and its Dispatch across a /clear

At rest is live, a closed chat has exited, and another host or nothing to
read is unverifiable. A /clear keeps the chat's Dispatch, and the session
that continues the chat reports as it.

* fix(orchestration): chat worker review round 1

- dispatch --inject is a keepalive-backed wait, so a chat that takes a while
  to accept its task no longer reads as a dead runtime at the 30 s idle cut.
- An injected task whose delivery is unknown keeps its Dispatch open, as an
  unknown worker-start does, instead of failing it while the chat may run it.
- A busy chat's worker-start receipt says the task waits as a card in the
  chat's queue, and that worker-abandon does not remove that card.
- A close that puts the chat's tab back no longer fails its Dispatch: the
  closed-chat settle runs after the close's outcome, not at its hide.
- worker-start adopting a chat says it gave the task to the chat, instead of
  claiming it started a terminal agent; the mode value is unchanged.
- Test: a chat whose agent has not taken its task reads outcome_unknown.

* test(native-chat): a close's hide defers its hidden notice until the close settles

The rollback suite pinned the hide's arguments; it now expects the deferred
notice, and that the notice is sent once, after a rolled-back tab is back.

* fix(orchestration): a chat worker whose successor is unknown is unverifiable, not exited

A /clear successor this host has no record of is missing evidence, not proof
the chat is gone. Only a closed chat reads exited, so only a closed chat
settles its Dispatch; a lost successor reads unverifiable with that reason.

* fix(orchestration): chat worker review round 2

- A chat's close notice settles only that chat's Dispatch. A scan of every
  chat Dispatch read another chat whose close was still in flight (its tab
  hidden, maybe to be put back) as closed and failed its Dispatch.
- Only a dispatch --inject into a chat is a long poll; a terminal inject
  writes and returns, and keeps its short-RPC slot.
- Receipt wording: worker-start says it gave the task to the chat, and a
  queued task is sent when the chat's queue reaches it.

* fix(orchestration): chat worker wording, review round 3

- worker-start's mode sentence for a chat states the placement, which is
  true whether the task is delivered, queued or refused.
- Comments and a test title no longer claim a close notice re-derives every
  chat worker, or that a queued task waits for the current turn.

* fix(orchestration): build a structured worker's task sender from the start's own ids

The minted worker's preamble names who its task is from with the run, task
and Dispatch ids worker-start already holds, so it reads no Dispatch row.

* fix(orchestration): point a chat worker at its held Dispatch mail again

A chat worker's coordinator mail lands in its Dispatch's mailbox, but a
chat's idle edge re-derived the Dispatch mailbox only for a party with a
terminal handle. A pointer lost with the provider then waited for new mail
after a restart or a /clear. The re-derivation now looks the Dispatch up by
the party's address, which names a worker by its handle and a chat by its
root.

* fix(native-chat): open a task card's sender by address; a task carries no mail

Opening an agent message's sender looked up the mail it carried, which only a
mail notice has; with the task kind in the union that read no longer typed.
A task's coordinator is found by its address alone.

Brennan Benson 35e173a5b7 fix(native-chat): alert when a structured chat asks for approval or input mid-turn (#25766)
* fix(native-chat): alert when a structured chat asks for approval or input mid-turn

A structured Claude or Codex chat that stopped mid-turn to ask for approval or a
question raised no OS notification, no phone push and no unread dot: the host's
attention feed only fired when a turn settled. The host now announces each newly
pending prompt once, from the same feed, and owns the phone push for its own
structured sessions; desktops keep presentation only.

- host feed: a `prompt` edge per pending approval/question, opt-in on the
  existing stream; a clean settle that only restates an announced prompt is not
  re-announced to prompt-aware clients; failures always are
- host push: an in-process subscriber pushes the host's paired phones with
  labels from in-memory metadata, and withdraws a prompt's alert once answered
- one attention identity for desktop banner, phone push, dedupe and retirement;
  delivery dedupes on it instead of the per-workspace burst window
- agentSession.acknowledgeAttention routes reading a chat to its owning host,
  which retires what it pushed for that session via its dismissal record

* fix(native-chat): keep prompt alerts under their retirement identity

* Fix structured attention read and delivery lifecycle

* Allow later reads to retry failed attention retirement

* Prevent delayed prompt alerts after accepted reads

* Keep attention integration tests across process boundaries

* Check structured capability before cursorless attention reads

* Keep host retirement fixture in the Node typecheck boundary

* Keep attention test seams in the mock boundary

* Keep host notification formatting usable without Electron

* Declare agents in restored-host attention fixture

* Group session attention capability declarations

* Retire structured alerts on every read and when a remote prompt ends

- Mark read and Mark all read on a chat that was never opened, or is hidden,
  now cover what lit its row: the read boundary is the later of the transcript
  cursor and the newest edge the tab was handed, captured at the click. The
  one boundary closes the banners, retires relayed phone alerts and drives the
  host acknowledgement; an edge after the click stays live.
- An alert from a host older than journal cursors has no position, so a pane
  read retires it again, banner and relayed phone push, as before this change.
- A desktop-relayed prompt alert for a remote chat is withdrawn once that
  host's live status stops reporting attention (answered elsewhere, cancelled,
  host restart); cached status after loss of contact never settles it.
- The attention acknowledgement is agent-session.attention-ack.v1 with a
  required journal cursor and strict params; the cursorless no-op is gone.
- The dismissal store keeps a record whose origin a newer build wrote,
  dropping only that origin.
- Host reconciliation runs on restore and when a prompt leaves the pending
  set, not on every journal commit.
- Remove unused session-wide retirement (retire, retireMatching,
  retireMobileNotificationsMatching) and test-only store lookups.

* Settle relayed prompts only from host-dated status; reads default to view

- A remote chat's status and its prompt edges arrive on separate sockets, so a
  status row queued before the prompt could land after it and withdraw a
  relayed alert that was still pending. Settlement now needs a live,
  non-attention row whose host updatedAt (the journal's latest row time, never
  decreasing) is later than the prompt's host raisedAt. The owed prompt is
  cleared only once the settle call succeeds, so a failed call retries on the
  next qualifying row.
- An acknowledgement without captured reads now reads as a view. Mark read,
  Mark all read, the hover-card jump and both dashboard acks pass 'explicit';
  Activity's automatic per-turn read stays a view.

* Re-judge relayed prompt settlement after each call; dashboard watching is a view

- Settlement is one check of the current mirror, run on each status row, after
  each settle call returns, and when a prompt edge arrives. A row that lands
  while a call is out is no longer dropped, and an edge that arrives after its
  own resolution settles at once. A rejected call is retried only once the
  mirror holds a different row, so a failing call cannot loop.
- The Agent Dashboard's card click acknowledges as explicit; watching the open
  dialog acknowledges as a view, through both the in-window drawer and the
  pop-out relay, and no longer re-acks the state the click just read.

* Keep a reused read owner findable after its holders release it

A chat pane memoizes its read owner. When every holder let go in one commit and
the same owner was picked up again (React StrictMode's effect re-run in
development, or a pane remounted in one commit, as on a tab move), the release
dropped it from the registry and nothing put it back. The attention bridge then
found no owner, so a view read carried no cursor: the unread dot cleared but
the banner and phone alerts stayed. An owner now names its key again whenever
it gains an activation or a subscriber and the key is free, never over a
different live owner.

* Type the ack test's execution host ids

* Keep the turn-completion types in main's turn-completion wire module

Main moved these types into agent-session-turn-completion-wire.ts while this branch moved them into agent-session-attention-wire.ts. They now live at main's path with this branch's additions (journal cursor, prompt attention, prompt arm); the unused completion key is dropped.

Brennan Benson e1e9d1c14a feat(agent-launch): host-assigned caller identity and a launch record written when the surface exists (#24934)
Step 1 of the agent-launch unification, on main.

- The dispatcher stamps every request's caller from what its connection proved (runtime socket:
  the local CLI; the desktop's IPC: the desktop; a paired socket: its device). Params never set it.
- The launch record is written twice: once when the tab exists (what creation settled: on the
  launch command, a draft, or a submit still `unconfirmed`), and again once the prompt's fate is
  known. A restart in between finds the running agent instead of answering "unknown".
- A replay re-derives its terminal handle from the pane key in the running host, and shows
  `unconfirmed` only to callers that advertise agent.launch.prompt-unconfirmed.v1.
- The record store opens in its own slot, without building the chat host; the chat host is built
  on that same store.

Rebuilt from this PR's own commits (b9adf88da0, 0d7d9b5b30, c83f44dd72, 39d15d52c0) onto
main, without #24080/#24081. Conflicts: the delivery doc table (main's "line fits" row plus the
`unconfirmed` row), and main's journal-database open in install(), which now goes through the
record-store slot.

Brennan Benson defd85a9eb feat(floating-workspace): render the floating panel through the shared workspace surface (#22302)
* docs(floating-workspace): plan structured native chat in the floating panel

* feat(floating-workspace): resolve the floating workspace so a structured session can run there

* docs(floating-workspace): plan the unification onto the shared workspace surface

* chore(floating-workspace): keep the unification plan out of the branch

* test(floating-workspace): pin the structured route on capability, not workspace kind

The host half removed the 'floating-workspace' blocker; this pin still asserted it and went red
on the merge. Floating now routes like any workspace, so with capabilities un-negotiated the
resolver answers 'runtime-capability-unknown'.

* feat(floating-workspace): resolve the floating workspace's renderer row without a worktree record

The renderer had no Worktree row for the floating id: markdown creation, tab-bar path entry,
native-chat file links, attachments and model discovery all resolve a workspace through
getKnownWorktreeById and silently fail for it. The host already answers with a synthetic row
minted from the resolved floating directory; this gives the renderer the same single seam.

- The repo slice stores the host-resolved floating directory (floatingWorkspacePath); the panel's
  existing cwd resolution now writes it there instead of panel-local state, so there is one copy.
- findKnownWorktreeById mints the shared floatingWorkspaceToWorktree row from that path, local
  host only, cached while the directory is unchanged — mirroring the folder-workspace branch it
  sits beside.
- No consumer changes needed: every row-dependent path already goes through this resolver.

* feat(tabs): scope editor and browser activation to the owning workspace

Shared editor/browser activation always wrote global selection (activeFileId,
activeBrowserTabId, activeTabType). The floating panel is an overlay above the active
workspace, and its active tab must never become global selection — the invariant
documented in agent-auto-ack-targets.ts. Group-scoped activation is a prerequisite for
rendering the floating workspace through the shared tab-group surface.

- setActiveFile and setActiveBrowserTab take an optional target workspace, mirroring
  setActiveTabType: global selection moves only when the target IS the globally active
  workspace; per-workspace state always updates. Omitted keeps legacy behavior.
- The shared tab-group activation/creation commands pass their workspace, which is a
  no-op for the main surface (hidden surfaces are inert, so commands only fire on the
  active workspace) and confines floating activation to floating state.
- Terminal setActiveTab was already owner-scoped; now pinned by test.

* refactor(tab-group): separate the workspace drag scope and group tree from main-window chrome

Preparation for hosting the floating workspace on the shared surface, whose shell owns its own
titlebar tab strip and cannot mount the main chrome:

- WorkspaceTabDragLayer: the one dnd-kit scope for a workspace's strips and tree, extracted from
  TabGroupSplitLayout as a render-prop layer so a host can put shell-owned chrome (a titlebar
  strip) inside the same drag scope as the tree.
- TabGroupSplitNodeTree: the chrome-free recursive group tree, with an explicit tabStrip
  composition point on TabGroupPanel ('attached' keeps today's per-group strip; 'external' hosts
  render no per-group strip at all — a hidden one would register duplicate drag sortables).
- WorkspacePaneOverlayLayers: the retained pane hosts extracted from WorktreeSplitSurface so any
  tree host mounts the same pane lifecycle stack.
- TerminalPaneOverlayLayer gains ownsNativeChatToggleShortcut, following the existing rule that
  only one live workspace registers the chord.

TabGroupSplitLayout and WorktreeSplitSurface recompose these parts; the main surface's DOM is
unchanged.

* feat(floating-workspace): decide the panel's emptiness and layout atomically

An empty floating workspace has no tab-group layout at all (the slice starts empty and
hydration skips tab-less workspaces), while the shared group tree requires one. This model
resolves the two together: the panel shows its empty state exactly until the first tab exists,
and mounts the tree only with a layout plus a live focused group (stored focus, else the group
with an active tab, else the first group — matching the shell chrome's focused-group policy).

* feat(floating-workspace): render the floating panel through the shared workspace surface

The panel previously projected exactly one tab group and hand-rendered its panes, so any tab
that left that group — 'Move Tab to Split' creates a second group — stayed alive in state but
vanished from the panel. The body now mounts the shared group tree and retained pane overlay
stack for the floating workspace id, so every group renders, splits work, and structured chat
finally has a floating surface.

- One drag scope: WorkspaceTabDragLayer wraps the titlebar strip AND the body tree, so exactly
  one DndContext owns floating tab drag; strip drops reorder, body-edge drops split. The
  floating-only FloatingWorkspaceTabDragContext is deleted.
- The titlebar keeps the panel's single TabBar, now fed by the shared per-group workspace model
  of the focused group (tabStrip='external' keeps per-group strips out of the shell), with
  workspace-scoped activation commands so global selection never moves.
- Panes render through WorkspacePaneOverlayLayers: terminals gate on the resolved cwd and a
  settled viewport exactly as before; browser guests ride the shared retention layer; agent
  session tabs appear in the strip and render through the structured overlay.
- The empty state renders exactly until the first resolvable tab exists (stale unified entries
  still show it), per the atomic layout/emptiness model.
- Deleted: the single-group projection, the hand-written pane maps, FloatingBrowserSlot, and
  the floating pane-handle registry.

Known behavior deltas, both narrowing floating onto main-workspace semantics: Cmd/Ctrl+W with
panel (not terminal) focus closes the active tab rather than one pane of a multi-pane tab, and
a pane-owned close of the last tab no longer arms the panel focus reclaim (strip and shortcut
closes still do).

* test: re-register moved pane-ownership sites with the extraction

The retained overlay stack moved into WorkspacePaneOverlayLayers and the floating chrome model
became a guest-paint consumer; the structured-pane layering pin and the browser-guest retention
census both name files, so they follow the seam.

* fix(floating-workspace): mount the shared group tree in a flex frame so panes own their height

The tree's nodes size themselves as flex items, and the floating shell mounted
them in a block container, so every group body — and every pane anchored to
one via anchor-size() — measured 0px tall. Wrap the tree and overlay layers in
the same 'absolute inset-0 flex' frame the worktree split surface uses, record
the host contract on the tree, pin the frame in the panel's element-tree test,
and add a real-renderer e2e spec that measures group-body and pane boxes for
the single-group and split layouts (jsdom computes no layout, which is how the
0px regression passed 50k tests).

* fix(runtime): import the floating worktree minting the structured create path calls

floatingWorkspaceToResolvedWorktree called floatingWorkspaceToWorktree without
importing it. The module is @ts-nocheck (mechanically split runtime), so tsc
never saw the missing import and it only failed at call time — the structured
createSupport probe for the floating workspace threw a ReferenceError. Add the
import and a test that runs the real method, which fails on the missing import
where the typechecker cannot.

* fix(browser-pane): resolve floating and folder workspace paths in notebook navigation

navigateBrowserPageToUrl looked the workspace up in allWorktrees(), which has
no row for folder or floating workspaces, so their notebook navigations ran
with an undefined workspace path. Use getKnownWorktreeById, the same resolver
every other consumer was moved to.

* fix(tabs): keep a workspace's tab selection out of the main window's global selection

* refactor(floating-workspace): launch and close panes like every other workspace

* refactor(tab-group): let the surface that mounts tab groups describe its own chrome

* refactor(floating-workspace): render the floating panel through the shared workspace surface

* fix(floating-workspace): resolve the floating directory once on the host, and keep the controls' inset

* test(floating-workspace): pin the unified floating panel against the shared surface

* fix(floating-workspace): read the floating directory's paths through the app environment

The runtime now resolves the floating directory itself, and the headless
runtime has no Electron app, so the Electron path lookup threw there.

* fix(floating-workspace): keep the main window's frame and shortcuts out of the floating panel

The shared layout drew the main window's 4px titlebar band and sidebar seam
inside the floating panel, and the chat-view toggle fired in every workspace
on screen, so one key press flipped the main window's tab and the panel's.

* fix(floating-workspace): close floating tabs without taking over the main window

An unsaved floating note's save prompt made the floating panel the main
window's active worktree, and never appeared on a fresh launch because the
workbench that owns the prompt was not mounted. The prompt now shows a
floating note in the panel, and the workbench mounts while the panel holds
tabs.

Every close path now reads the same captured emptied-workspace reaction, so a
floating pane closing itself, its shell exiting, a group close, and an unsaved
note close all keep the panel's keyboard ownership, as a tab close already did.

* test(tab-group): pin that a dirty editor close carries its emptied reaction

* refactor(tabs): one rule for when a selection moves the main window's selection

Opening a file kept a floating-only exception while every other writer checked
whether the tab's workspace is the active one. Every writer now asks the same
question, so opening a file in a background worktree no longer points the main
window's editor selection into that worktree.

* refactor(floating-workspace): drop what the shared surface left unused

The terminal pane's imperative close handle lost its last consumer when the
floating panel stopped keeping its own pane registry, and the floating and
folder workspaces built the same lineage-free resolved worktree twice.

* test(floating-workspace): type test fixtures without casts and drop the removed pane ref

* fix(floating-workspace): keep panel focus when a close lands after the panel emptied

Saving the last floating note closes it after an awaited write, so the panel
could render empty before the close armed its keyboard reclaim, leaving the
intent armed with nothing left to consume it. The panel now re-checks whenever
the intent arms as well as when its tab count changes.

A pinned tab's confirmation took focus before the close read panel ownership;
the dispatcher now captures it before any prompt.

* refactor(floating-workspace): finish what the shared surface left behind

- The floating panel no longer accepts AI vault session drops: a session
  cannot resume into it, and its window-level drop handler fired beside the
  main window's.
- The last global-selection writers that spelled the active-workspace check
  inline now use the shared rule.
- Remove the save-dialog hook and item counter the old floating body used, and
  correct comments that said the workbench only mounts once a workspace exists.

* docs(tabs): describe workspace-owned activation accurately

* fix(floating-workspace): finish the main merge and name the pin a launch directory

Port what the merge left on main's newer shapes:
- The floating chat's "folder is gone" refusal becomes a typed reason,
  launchFolderMissing, worded like every other start refusal (copy, desktop
  words, five translations). Older clients drop the unknown reason and show
  the code's generic words.
- The PR's launch-folder tests run on main's journal-database record store;
  the attach-level case is a row in the pre-spawn refusal table.
- Tests main added since the PR's base learn the PR's close-queue settling,
  workspace-scoped notebook lookup and tab-stamped chat host.
- Move the store's visible-tab-index reads into the tab table, so the record
  store stays under the line cap with the pin writer in it.
- Drop a duplicate Worktree import the merge left in a @ts-nocheck file.

Rename the persisted field, the status summary field and the renderer slice
from workspacePath to launchDirectory: it records the folder a session first
launched in, not its workspace's path, and it has not shipped yet.

* Fix floating chat visibility, closes, and directory pinning

* fix(i18n): drop the floating save dialog's strings with the dialog

The cast tripped the changed-code type-assertion gate.

pinned to another folder could show that folder's project default.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 7faa9f7cd3 fix(native-chat): reasoning rows with a real open/finished state, and readable Claude thinking (#19221)
* fix(native-chat): render structured reasoning as collapsible messages

* fix(native-chat): align expanded reasoning with summary

* fix(native-chat): place reasoning chevron after summary

* De-emphasize reasoning headlines with observed timing labels

* Exclude later turn work from observed reasoning duration

* fix(native-chat): give reasoning rows a host-owned open/closed lifecycle

A reasoning row now says whether its block is still streaming (`state`)
and, when the host saw it end, when (`completedAt`). The row's own
start is its first-write time, so "Thought for N s" is measured on the
execution host instead of by whichever window happened to be watching.

Rows open with their first non-empty text and close on every path that
ends them: the block's final frame, a new message in the same stream,
every Claude turn end through one hook on the open turn, Codex
item/completed, turn and session settlement, active-item eviction, and
both host sweeps for a dead generation. Closing writes are lifecycle
writes so backpressure cannot leave a row open. Rows without the field
(older hosts, older journals) never read as live.

The reasoning row's headline reads the row's lifecycle and its own
turn's liveness: Thinking while open in a running turn, then Thought
for N s, Thought when no span was seen, Reasoning when the host kept no
lifecycle.

* feat(native-chat): ask Claude for readable thinking summaries

Under Orca's launch the Claude CLI streams thinking blocks with empty
text, so no reasoning row ever had anything to show. Pass only
`--thinking-display summarized`: it fills thinking blocks with the
API's summaries without turning thinking on, so a user who disabled
thinking keeps it off.

Orca runs the user's own binary, and a CLI older than the flag exits on
it before the session starts. The launch probes the binary it is about
to run, overlapping the rest of launch resolution, and passes the flag
only when that probe has already answered with 2.1.94 or newer. A slow
or failed probe never delays a launch and is never remembered; a
successful one is kept per binary until the binary changes.

* test(native-chat): type the superseding send in the reasoning lifecycle test

* fix(native-chat): stop reading an ended reasoning row as thinking

The spinner line infers "Thinking" from the newest root row being a
reasoning message. With summaries on, a closed reasoning row stays the
newest row while Claude streams a tool's input, so the line read
Thinking for the whole Write. A reasoning row now counts only while its
own state is running; a row from a host that keeps no state reads as
before.

* fix(native-chat): measure reasoning from the block's start, not its first text

A row opens with its first summary text, which trails the thinking
block's start by seconds, and the journal stamps a row with its queued
append time. So "Thought for N s" read 1 s for blocks that ran 4.65 s
and 12.95 s. The block registry now records the host time at each
block's content_block_start (else its first delta), and every write of
that block's row carries it as the row's observed time; the close keeps
the frame's own receipt time. Codex reasoning rows likewise carry their
item/started time.

* perf(native-chat): stop rewriting the reasoning row for every thinking token

Claude sends a thinking_tokens frame after every thinking delta. Every
frame the stream path did not consume forced the streamed text out
first, bypassing the checkpoint widening and the coalescing window, so
a single thinking block was rewritten and republished once per token:
212 full-row writes and 258 KB for one captured block. A frame that can
write no row (token tallies, stream deltas no registry carries, pings)
no longer forces that flush; every frame that can write still does.
The same block now takes 14 writes.

* fix(native-chat): time Codex reasoning by receipt and close evicted rows

Codex summary text lands 13-50 ms before item/completed, inside one
coalescing window, so a reasoning row's first write can be its
completion. Item boundaries are now stamped with their host receipt
time the way turn boundaries already were, so a retried or buffered
delivery keeps it, and the item translator falls back to the host
clock rather than Date.now(). The row carries its item/started time on
every first write, including the completion, so its span is
item/started to item/completed.

An evicted active item is now closed from the text streamed so far,
like both settle paths, and the eviction runs before the incoming item
is tracked: tracking first let the stream bound drop the evictee's text
before the eviction could close its row, stranding it running.

completedAt now has one meaning everywhere: the host time the message
was seen to end, or the end of the turn or stream that cut it off;
absent only when no end was seen live.

* refactor(native-chat): keep the Codex streaming body translation pure

The streaming translation preserves a reasoning body as-is again; the
stream writer, which is what knows the item has not completed, stamps
it running.

* test(native-chat): keep a re-collapsed reasoning row collapsed through a revision

* fix(native-chat): estimate a collapsed reasoning row as its trigger

A reasoning row renders collapsed, as one small button, but its height
was estimated from its full text: a 4,129-character summary reserved
about 950 px for a 24 px row, so long chats jumped as rows were
measured. It is now estimated at the trigger's height; opening the row
remeasures it.

* fix(native-chat): probe the CLI the launch will run, and learn from a refusal

The thinking-display gate probed `claude --version` with Orca's own cwd
and env, while the launch spawns with the workspace's cwd and the shell
env. Behind a version manager's shim those can pick different CLIs, so
the probe could approve a CLI the launch never ran, and an older CLI
exits on the unknown flag before the session starts. The probe also
only counted if it had already finished when resolution did, so a
first launch, or the first after a CLI update, usually went without
the flag.

The probe now runs with the launch's own resolved cwd and env, is keyed
by the binary and the workspace, and a launch waits up to 200 ms for it
(about 3x the probe's measured p95) before going without the flag. Only
answers are kept, so a slow or failed probe is asked again next launch.
A child that exits with commander's "unknown option '--thinking-display'"
marks that binary in that workspace so the next launch skips the flag;
that one start fails exactly as any CLI startup failure does today.

* test(native-chat): type the thinking-display probe mock with both of its parameters

* fix(native-chat): recheck the account switch after the probe, last as before

Moving the invocation ahead of the probe, the transcript check and the
permission mode put its account-switch recheck before those awaits, so a
switch that began during them launched unchecked. The invocation is the
last await again. The probe gets its own env from the same sources the
launch uses, the inherited env and the overlay with the CLI's runtime on
PATH, built by the same code, minus every credential: asking a CLI its
version needs none.

* fix(native-chat): wait up to 1.5 s for a cold probe, and remember every outcome

200 ms only covered a warm CLI; a cold disk, a node install or an
antivirus scan exceeds it, and that chat's child then ran its whole
life without summaries. A launch now waits up to 1.5 s, once per binary
per workspace, measured from when that binary's probe began, so a later
launch never waits again on a probe already past it. The probe gets its
own 10 s kill timeout, and every outcome, including no version printed,
a failure or a kill, is kept for the binary's life, so a probe that
hangs costs one launch rather than every one. A refusal seen while a
probe still runs wins over its late answer.

* fix(native-chat): leave Thinking to the activity line while reasoning runs

A reasoning row still being written drew a pulsing "Thinking…" header
right under the turn's activity line, which already says Thinking: two
live indicators for one fact. In a running turn an open reasoning row
now draws nothing and reserves no height; it appears when it closes, as
"Thought for N s". A row from a host that keeps no state, a closed row,
and a row left open by a turn that ended draw as before. The row's
Thinking headline is gone with its catalog key.

* fix(native-chat): end every unfinished Codex item through one rule

A reasoning completion with no text of its own left the row its stream
wrote running for good: the completion translated to nothing and the
item left the active set, so no settle could reach it. It now closes
from the text streamed so far.

Settlement, eviction and that completion now build an unfinished item's
row through one choice (the streamed text when there is any, else the
item as it started) and end it through one rule. An evicted file change
with streamed tool output no longer keeps that output as its patch; it
reads as interrupted, as a settled one does. A completion whose start
was never recorded claims no span, so it reads "Thought".

* fix(native-chat): catalogue Claude's stream keep-alive as benign

An uncatalogued `ping` stream frame classified as substantive, so the
fallback wrote a visible "claude · message:stream_event:ping" row, and
since such frames no longer force streamed text out first, a ping
inside a coalescing window landed above the open reasoning row. A ping
is now benign: it writes no row.

* fix(native-chat): bound finding the binary by the probe budget, and keep it LRU

Resolving the command's real path and its mtime was awaited before the
budgeted wait, so a slow filesystem could hold a launch indefinitely;
it now counts against the same budget, and running out caches nothing.
The cache is least recently used rather than first written, and holds
32 binary-and-workspace entries rather than 16.

* feat(mobile): collapse reasoning rows the way desktop does

With summaries on, every Claude turn now carries reasoning text, and the
phone drew all of it inline, dimmed, between the prompt and the answer.
Mobile now draws a reasoning row as desktop does: collapsed to "Thought
for N s", "Thought" or "Reasoning", its text mounted only once opened,
and nothing at all while the row is still being written in the live
turn or has no text. The headline and the visibility rule live in one
shared module both clients read, so they cannot drift.

* fix(native-chat): let a failed CLI probe heal instead of latching

A probe killed at its timeout, failing to spawn under a loaded boot, or
printing no version was cached as "no flag" for the binary's life, so
that workspace never got summaries again in that run. Only a version
(either side of the floor) or the CLI's own refusal is kept for good
now; a probe that gave no version is kept for 10 minutes, so a hung CLI
still costs one wait per stretch and a boot-time failure heals.

* docs(native-chat): say exactly what the version probe's env leaves out

* fix(native-chat): record a Codex item's start whatever its first frame carried

The start was recorded only for an item/started that wrote no row, so a
reasoning item that started with text lost it and its completion
claimed no span. Every tracked item/started now records its receipt
time, and the started write carries it too.

* fix(mobile): label the reasoning toggle and give it a full touch target

The toggle now tells a screen reader what it is, "Reasoning: Thought
for 3s", as desktop's prefix does, and reaches a 44 pt target. The
shared English copy stays private to the module that formats it.

* refactor(native-chat): build reasoning rows from one provider-neutral helper

Claude, Codex and the terminal sweeps each built the reasoning row body and
its running/ended stamp themselves. They now share journal-reasoning-row:
blank text journals no row, text is bounded the same way, and an end carries
completedAt only when the host saw it.

* refactor(codex): move the active journal item type into the contracts file

codex-unfinished-item-body imported the type from the settlement module,
which imports values from it.

* test(claude): read the launch PATH the way Windows spells it

* test(claude): compare the probe's PATH to the launch's without Orca's CLI dir

When the CLI's directory also holds node (Linux CI's /usr/local/bin), the
runtime pairing puts that directory first, ahead of the Orca CLI directory the
launch adds, so the launch PATH no longer ends with the probe's. Both still
resolve the same claude and shims. The test now checks that exactly, for a CLI
with and without a sibling node.

* feat(native-chat): lead the reasoning row with a brain glyph in the tool-row column

* fix(native-chat): route the reasoning glyph through the shared icon names, keep its chevron findable, and match it on mobile

* fix(mobile): keep the long-press actions sheet on reasoning rows for Android

* fix(native-chat): forward every exit argument through the thinking-display connection wrapper

* refactor(codex): keep the receipt-timed notification methods with the event they stamp

* feat(native-chat): read an open reasoning block through the one live "Thinking" line

While the agent's open reasoning block has text, the turn's live activity line is its
disclosure: collapsed by default, expandable to the live text (capped and scrollable), and
the block's row draws nothing meanwhile. When the block ends, its row appears in place,
open if the reader opened it live, because the line and the row read one disclosure key.
Which block the line discloses is derived from the line's own render condition, so a row
is never hidden while nothing on screen shows it; any other open block (a subagent's, or
one a prompt pushed off the line) draws as "Reasoning". Desktop and mobile alike; no host
or wire change.

* fix(native-chat): a slot kept for its turn bar or diff rollup no longer draws its message

The transcript row drew the message of every message slot, while the slot builder pushes a slot
for a row it declined to draw whenever that row also carries its turn's bar or diff rollup. So the
open reasoning block the live line discloses still drew as a "Reasoning" row when it was a
provider-opened turn's first row or the last row of a turn that changed files, and one click
opened both. The builder's decision now travels on the slot (`drawsMessage`) and the row draws
only the bar and rollup when it is false; the row-level `folded` guard it made redundant is gone.

* refactor(native-chat): draw the live line from one shared value, with one live region

Desktop and mobile now render the live activity line from one pure function,
`nativeChatLiveLine`: whether it draws, what it says, and the open reasoning block it
discloses with the text it has so far. The open block's row is hidden from that same value,
so desktop no longer restates the line's render condition beside it, and the lines no longer
re-derive the text.

The line keeps one element, and so one live region, through every state; only its trigger
and body come and go, so a screen reader hears "Thinking" and the label after it. On mobile
the live text gets the finished row's Android long press (copy or select through the message
actions sheet), the line's touch target is the row's 44 pt, and its label and body sit in
the finished row's column so nothing moves when the row takes over.

* fix(mobile): keep the live text's actions sheet on the block it was opened for

On Android the sheet opened by a long press on the live reasoning was a flag gated on a live
block: it vanished when the block ended, mid Select text, and the stale flag reopened it
unprompted on the next block. The sheet now holds the message it was opened for.

* test(native-chat): the reasoning body owns its tone, live and once landed

Rendered QA on a pre-merge build showed the live line's open reasoning in full foreground and the
landed row's in muted text, so it dimmed as the block landed: the body set no colour of its own and
inherited one from wherever it was mounted. Since the main merge (017ad743fa) the body carries the
chat's faint tone itself; this pins that, and that the line and the row draw the same body.

Brennan Benson 9905765e3b feat(native-chat): open structured chat's wire and stored records to registered agents, behind a negotiated capability (#25159)
* refactor(native-chat): keep the provider resume handle opaque to shared code

Shared structured-chat code parsed each provider's resume handle: Claude's
session id and branch leaf, Codex's thread id, through a 'claude' | 'codex'
union every new agent had to widen. The in-memory handle is now
{ transport, agent, nativeId, providerData? }: shared readers use nativeId,
lease and handle-chain checks compare transport and agent, and only the
Claude adapter reads its leaf (providerData).

Stored and wire forms are unchanged for Claude and Codex. One encoding
module writes their typed shapes and decodes both those and the neutral
shape a new transport uses, which an older build refuses as unreadable
rather than reading as Codex. Key and root strings, which fork seeds,
superseded creations and resume offers persist, stay byte-identical.

The journal's own handle type becomes the journal-row and attach-wire
encoding of the same handle, and the journal identity carries the
neutral handle (null before the provider proves one).

No user-visible change.

* fix(native-chat): derive journal-row provider handles from the journal identity

The journal row converter now takes the identity every caller already holds,
so a row's handle has one obvious constructor. Tests that wrote the in-memory
handle straight into journal rows now build it through that converter, and the
processless Claude fixture names a not-yet-proved handle as null.

* fix(native-chat): refuse a stored provider handle written in both forms

A typed Claude or Codex handle that also carries the neutral form's
transport, agent, native id or provider data named two identities; it
was read as Claude or Codex and the next write dropped the other one.
Such a row now stays unreadable and is set aside untouched.

* refactor(native-chat): route structured agents through registered definitions

The structured-chat shared layer named Claude and Codex in a closed router
type, in option reads, in frame classification, and in renderer label and
validation branches, so adding an agent meant editing shared types. Each
agent now has a definition (capabilities, resting option rules) owned by its
own module; the router is a registry of definition + adapter pairs built at
runtime setup, and shared code reads the definition instead of the name.

No behavior change for Claude or Codex; no wire or stored shape change.

* refactor(native-chat): name the structured agent list once in host types

The host types, conversation commands, provider-session ownership and the
runtime's create path spelled the structured agent list inline; they now use
the one shared type the record and wire already validate against.

* fix(native-chat): narrow the record before reading its agent's option rules

* refactor(native-chat): make the router's registrations the only agent definition lookup

The at-rest option reads looked definitions up in a second, separately populated map, so a
registered definition could route and declare capabilities while the static map decided which
options a chat at rest accepted. The router now answers `definition(agent)` from its
registrations, the at-rest readers take it through the host's adapter, and the built-in
definitions are listed only where the runtime composes the router.

* feat(native-chat): open the structured-chat wire and stored records to registered agents

A host's structured agents are the ones its runtime registered. Records, RPC
params, persisted tabs and the model catalog accept any registered agent instead
of naming Claude and Codex; each agent's definition declares the transport its
handles live in and the variable its account home pins. A new runtime
capability, agent-session.structured.registered-agents.v1, advertises that a
host accepts and lists its agents (agentSession.agents, with each agent's
capability record), and the host withholds any other agent's tabs and restart
offers from clients that do not advertise it.

* test(native-chat): cover registered agents on the wire, in storage and across versions

* refactor(native-chat): let the record store decide which agents' tabs exist

* test(native-chat): declare the pilot test agent's storage

* test(native-chat): read the old build's saved tabs through a parsed shape

* fix(native-chat): act on restart offers only for agents the calling client can show

A paired client too old to show an agent's chat was listed only the offers it could show, but
dismissing or continuing all reached every offer on the host, and a named continuation answered
with the host's whole remaining inventory. The client's audience now goes to the host with every
restart operation: only offers it sees are reserved, dismissed or returned. Without an audience
(this host's own process, or a client that shows every agent) nothing changes.

* test(native-chat): read an agent-registering baseline's storage on its own terms

The registered-agents downgrade test assumed its baseline release predates registered agents: it
expected the saved-tab parser to erase an unknown agent and called the record reader without the
agents list. Once a release with this change becomes the baseline, both break. The expectations now
follow what the baseline host advertises, and an agent-registering baseline is handed its own
Claude and Codex storage.

* refactor(native-chat): derive record-store admission from the runtime's agent registrations

Which agents a stored record may name and which agents the router drives came from two lists in
the runtime, so a newly registered agent could be routed while its records were set aside. One
list of registrations now holds each agent's definition and the factory for its adapter: the
store's admitted agents are derived from it before the store opens, and the adapters are built
from it once it has.

* fix(native-chat): hand the exit drain a promise for every registered agent

* fix(native-chat): let the adoption conflict check read any agent's ownership

Ownership rows name any registered agent since the stored records opened to them; the adoption
check compares by agent, so it takes the same open id. Only Claude and Codex still adopt.

* test(native-chat): use opaque handle in queued rejection fixture

* test(native-chat): share one Codex journal identity in the integration suite

Main grew the suite to the 800-line limit; the opaque-handle import pushed it
over. The two tests built the same identity inline.

* refactor(agent-session): name the handle's adapter state resumeCursor

Rename the neutral provider handle's providerData to resumeCursor before any
row persists the neutral form: it is an adapter-owned resume position (Claude's
transcript leaf), never identity. Claude/Codex stored and wire bytes are
unchanged; their typed shapes never carried the field.

State the stored-form contract (a handle's field set is closed; later per-link
data goes on the chain link, which every build preserves) and pin it with a
record round-trip test. Document that transport records the id space the
native id was minted in, which can differ from the agent's current transport.

* refactor(agent-session): one required agent registry; declarations admit what they claim

A StructuredAgentRegistry, built once from the {definition, adapter}
registrations, is now a required host dependency and the router routes with
it. The adapter interface loses its optional router-only capabilities?() and
definition?(); every reader (options at rest, thread goal, rewind, the
/compact handover) asks the registry. A live session still narrows rewind
through the adapter, and the host combines declared and narrowed in one
helper. The registry refuses a registration that declares compact, a thread
goal or rewind without the adapter method behind it.

/compact is admitted by the declared capability, so an agent that declares
compact:false gets the commandRefused fact instead of a thrown error.

Also: the cut-turn notice names the agent from the catalog, create-support
builds the account home through agentSessionAccountHome, and the turn
status text older clients read names the session's agent instead of
defaulting to Codex (Claude/Codex text unchanged).

* refactor(agent-session): the router applies the declared rewind itself

The router holds the registry, so its rewindSupport answers the owner's
declared rewind narrowed by the adapter, in one place no reader can bypass.
The host-side combining helper is gone; readers ask the adapter they hold.

* test(agent-session): register the agents the merged-in tests now need

The adoption replay test builds its host over this build's registered agents
instead of an adapter definition method, and the stored-form test passes the
stored agents the record guard now requires.

* chore(agent-session): the registry is the one lookup; drop the test-only empty capability record

* fix(agent-session): keep "dismiss all" restart offers dismissed for the desktop

The desktop renderer calls the restart methods as a paired runtime client
without the registered-agents capability, so it was handed a Claude/Codex
audience and its "dismiss all" took the scoped path: no dismissal fence and
no clearing of unwritten teardown witnesses, so a late teardown write could
bring a dismissed offer back.

The audience is now derived against this host's registry: a client that can
show every agent the host registered gets none, and dismisses exactly as
before (one fence for every offer). A client that truly cannot show some
agent still gets a final dismissal for what it sees: each cleared session is
fenced on its own (bounded, superseded by a dismiss-all fence) and only the
witnesses of agents it sees are dropped.

One predicate now answers which agents a client renders, for both tab
projection and restart offers; the Claude capability rule is folded in.

* fix(agent-session): a changed agent definition never hides that agent's chats

A record was readable only if every handle used the transport its agent's
definition declares today, and its account variable was declared by some
registered agent. A later build that drives the same agent over another
protocol, or under a renamed variable, would have set every existing chat of
that agent aside: no tab, no history, no error.

Readability now asks only that the record agree with itself: its agent is
registered, every handle shares one namespace owned by that agent, and the
account variable is a well-formed name. Whether this build can drive it (the
chain's transport is the one the agent speaks, and the account variable is
that agent's own, since it becomes the child's environment) is decided in
performAttach, the one admission every start of every agent passes through,
and refused there as hostUnsupported. A record pinning another agent's
variable is refused the same way rather than passing because some agent
declares it.

* refactor(agent-session): each agent's registration says where it runs and which account it pins

createSupport, create and the model catalog's account read still chose a
location rule and an account resolver by name (Claude, Codex, else none),
so a new agent would have needed a third branch beside the registration
list that already decides storage, routing and publication.

Each runtime registration now carries supportsLocation(location) and
resolveAccountHomePath({ launchEnv, location, purpose, workspacePath }),
and Claude's and Codex's rules move into their entries unchanged: a read
still syncs no home and starts no bridge, a Codex launch still trusts the
workspace first, and WSL locations resolve as before. The list exists
before the host is built, so none of these reads installs the host, and an
agent the list does not hold is answered no without opening the journal.

* test(agent-session): drop a duplicate registry key; keep fences out of the capsule state

A spread input already carries the registry, so the explicit key was
overwritten (TS2783). The session-fence helper now returns only the fence,
not the capsule state it was given.

* fix(agent-session): a scoped dismiss-all persists no per-session fence

The per-session dismissal fence added a forever-persisted capsule field
with an arbitrary cap that served no caller: only the local desktop calls
the restart methods, and on a host whose agents it all shows it gets no
audience and takes the unscoped, fenced dismissal. A scoped dismiss-all
(a caller that cannot show some registered agent) keeps that agent's
offers, clears only its audience's unwritten witnesses, and writes no
fence; a late write from this process is serialized behind it. The field
never left this unreleased branch.

* fix(agent-session): refuse an attach whose agent is not the session's own

The start check judges the record's agent while the router starts the adapter of params.agent, and the attach wire let the two differ. Admission now refuses agent !== provider as requestMalformed, so the agent checked is the agent started. Every host-built attach already sets them equal.

* fix(agent-session): offer to start a chat only when the start would accept it

The restart offer, a failure's retryable flag and the pre-send check asked only whether the adapter runs the chat's location, while the start also refuses a record this build cannot drive; such a chat was offered Resume and its Retry failed forever. One host predicate, hostCanStartRecord (location support and agentDrivesSession), now answers all four; adapterSupportsRecord stays the reader gate, and an undrivable chat's offer is kept, not retired.

* fix(agent-session): the model-catalog probe uses a record's account only if this build drives it

A record-scoped catalog read started the agent's lister under the record's account path whatever variable the record pinned. It now uses that path only when agentDrivesSession holds, and otherwise resolves the account as for a read with no record.

* refactor(agent-session): the record store admits agent ids; comments say where transport is checked

The store only ever asked whether an agent is registered, so its admission list is now the registered ids; the definition is the one home of an agent's transport and account variable. Comments that said the record store checks transport, and one that cited a nonexistent function, now point at agentDrivesSession and the attach admission. The isPersistedAgentSessionRecord(value, agents) call shape and the test fixture the cross-version probe imports are kept.

* docs(agent-session): the record store admits the registered agents' ids

* test(native-chat): dismiss-all through a remote client's audience keeps a newer Orca's offer

Uses an audience production sends (one that cannot show every agent), per review.

* chore(native-chat): keep the record store and recovery capsule under max-lines after the main merge

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity and turn context the current way

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle; the turn context also needs this branch's agent registry.

* test(ratchet): require src/main/provider-process now that it has landed

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 and this branch both added the import at different lines; the merge kept both.

* Keep saved chats readable without provider registration

* Keep stored-record compatibility checks independent of registration

* Keep saved providers in restart client audiences

* test(native-chat): type reveal fixtures without assertions

* test(wire): expose known agents in structured host fixture

* Supply startability dependency in the new Codex catalog fixture

Brennan Benson 3a03441580 refactor(native-chat): structured agents declare their capabilities instead of shared code naming Claude and Codex (#25076)
* refactor(native-chat): keep the provider resume handle opaque to shared code

union every new agent had to widen. The in-memory handle is now

definitions are listed only where the runtime composes the router.

* test(native-chat): use opaque handle in queued rejection fixture

* test(native-chat): share one Codex journal identity in the integration suite

Main grew the suite to the 800-line limit; the opaque-handle import pushed it
over. The two tests built the same identity inline.

* refactor(agent-session): name the handle's adapter state resumeCursor

Rename the neutral provider handle's providerData to resumeCursor before any
row persists the neutral form: it is an adapter-owned resume position (Claude's
transcript leaf), never identity. Claude/Codex stored and wire bytes are
unchanged; their typed shapes never carried the field.

State the stored-form contract (a handle's field set is closed; later per-link
data goes on the chain link, which every build preserves) and pin it with a
record round-trip test. Document that transport records the id space the
native id was minted in, which can differ from the agent's current transport.

* refactor(agent-session): one required agent registry; declarations admit what they claim

A StructuredAgentRegistry, built once from the {definition, adapter}
registrations, is now a required host dependency and the router routes with
it. The adapter interface loses its optional router-only capabilities?() and
definition?(); every reader (options at rest, thread goal, rewind, the
/compact handover) asks the registry. A live session still narrows rewind
through the adapter, and the host combines declared and narrowed in one
helper. The registry refuses a registration that declares compact, a thread
goal or rewind without the adapter method behind it.

/compact is admitted by the declared capability, so an agent that declares
compact:false gets the commandRefused fact instead of a thrown error.

Also: the cut-turn notice names the agent from the catalog, create-support
builds the account home through agentSessionAccountHome, and the turn
status text older clients read names the session's agent instead of
defaulting to Codex (Claude/Codex text unchanged).

* refactor(agent-session): the router applies the declared rewind itself

The router holds the registry, so its rewindSupport answers the owner's
declared rewind narrowed by the adapter, in one place no reader can bypass.
The host-side combining helper is gone; readers ask the adapter they hold.

* chore(agent-session): the registry is the one lookup; drop the test-only empty capability record

* test(native-chat): build the Stop-opened-turn test's identity and turn context the current way

The test (#25056) landed before the opaque provider handle (#24991), so main still built
the old {kind, threadId} handle; the turn context also needs this branch's agent registry.

* test(ratchet): require src/main/provider-process now that it has landed

* test(native-chat): keep main's opaque-handle import in the Stop-opened-turn test

Main's #25706 and this branch both added the import at different lines; the merge kept both.

Brennan Benson 57fedeed79 fix(native-chat): the agent's exit ends its record, and an unconfirmed stop is joined instead of held (#24862)
* fix(native-chat): a child's root exit is reported even during its close, and bookkeeping after it never reads as unproven

- Both connections report the root process's exit once, with `expected` set when a close had
  begun. A close that came back unproven and whose root exits later is finished by the adapter,
  and its end reaches the host like any other.
- A Claude close whose resume-point write fails after the exit was proven, and a Codex close whose
  terminal row is refused, now end the session and report the failure, instead of keeping a dead
  child indexed as if its exit were unproven.
- A Codex close whose forced tree kill can't prove the descendants gone but saw the root exit
  reports the descendants and counts the root exit.
- Every child exit with an identity, expected or not, is forwarded to the host.

* fix(native-chat): the exit ends the child's record; an unfinished stop is the child's own close, which everyone joins

- The host keeps no stored "stop still owed" record any more. A stop begins the child's close
  (`child.close`), which lives on the child and ends with it. A second Stop, the idle reaper,
  quit, a send and an option/answer/goal/rewind all join that close instead of retrying a
  separate obligation.
- A caller waits on the close only as long as the step deadline; the close itself is never
  abandoned. A proof that lands after every caller stopped waiting reaches the host as the
  adapter's report of that exit, which ends the record through the same handler.
- Once the exit is proven, draining, settling, the lease release and the adapter's
  acknowledgement are each attempted and reported on failure; none keeps the child on record.
  A start, and the handle's close, write a release that failed from this host's proof of that
  exit, so a failed write never refuses a send.
- A start that meets a close still unverifiable is refused with `previousExitUnverifiable`, so the
  queued message is rejected with a send-again reason; nothing is held and nothing starts beside
  the old process.
- The idle sweep goes back to idle reaping only.
- Removes #24333's retry entry points, the wait row and its hold rule, the ask/failure cursors on
  the stored record, and the stop's own wake.

Tests replace the #24333 unproven-stop test: a send joining an unproven close and an in-flight
one, a late proof past the caller's bound, a root exiting after its close gave up, a proven exit
whose resume-point write and lease release both failed, an unverifiable close rejecting the send
and refusing an option change, a surviving descendant, quit and the idle reaper; and Codex's
unverifiable, late-exit and joined-close cases.

* fix(native-chat): a message refused because the old process's exit is unverifiable says so, and to send again

The start failure for a refusal with reason `previousExitUnverifiable` reads "Orca couldn't
confirm Claude's previous process ended. Send your message to try again." instead of "Claude
couldn't restart." The status-row kind and the refusal reason stay in the shared lists for rows
and hosts that still carry them; the catalogs keep one sentence for both.

* fix(native-chat): a close's verdict is the root's exit alone, and what follows it is logged

- A Claude close resolves as soon as the root's exit is proven: the session ends and its `ended`
  report goes out then. Saving the resume point runs afterwards and a failure is logged, so a slow
  or hung write never reads as an unproven exit or keeps a dead child on record.
- A root that exits after its close came back unproven finishes that close through the same path
  as any close, so the session's child work is published as ended (background tasks and subagents
  no longer stay shown running for a dead agent), and a failure there is logged.
- Codex logs a refused final row, and reports a root exit whose forced tree kill could not prove
  the rest of the tree gone the way Claude does, so the host logs it and blocks nothing.
- Both adapters take the host's logger for this bookkeeping.

* fix(native-chat): one handler ends every child's exit, and a join waits on the adapter's own close

- One exit handler (`structured-agent-session-child-exit`) ends a child's record for an exit
  expected or not. `expected` only changes what the chat is told: the stop's cause, its end at the
  stop's ask, the settlement id, and no crash outcome row. The lease release keeps the exit's
  evidence; the handoff guard, lifecycle barrier, sink release and adapter acknowledgement apply to
  both. A Claude journal-sink failure ends in the same step as its stop, as Orca's own fault.
- Joining a close is asking the adapter, whose close is memoized while it runs and bounded by its
  own kill escalation; the host keeps no attempt of its own and no 10 s caller bound. An ask after
  a close came back unproven runs the stop again.
- A close's end is stamped where its stop was asked for (a repeated ask moves it), so the closed
  chat and failed start checks order a message accepted meanwhile after it.
- A start refused because the old exit is unverifiable rejects what was queued in the same step.
- The end of a close the host asked for no longer waits on the cross-session recovery chain.
- The kill no longer waits for the stop event's write; the journal writes rows in order.

* fix(native-chat): an exit's lease release lands whatever the length of its reason

A crash's reason can carry kilobytes of the provider's stderr, and a lease whose death detail is
over 512 characters fails the store's own check. The exit handler cut it, but the release a start
or the chat handle's close re-derives did not, so after a crash whose own release failed every
message was refused as not resumable until restart. The record's builder now cuts the detail to
the record's bound, so no writer can hand it one too long.

* fix(claude): a proven close waits at most 2 s for the output it already wrote

Once the root's exit is proven, the close still waited for the SDK's output reader to end. Something
outside the process tree that holds the output open would keep that close, and every send, Stop
and quit joining it, waiting with no bound. The wait is now bounded; past it the close resolves as
proven and the open output is logged.

* fix(codex): an exit reported inside Orca's close keeps the reason Orca closed it for

The connection reports the app-server's exit inside the close that ends it, so that report ended
every Codex close and replaced the close's own reason (for example, a provider frame that could not
be recorded) with the connection's stderr text in the ended record and the lease's exit evidence.
The session now records Orca's close with its reason, and the exit it ends keeps that reason. The
test connection reports its exit inside close the way the real one does.

* fix(native-chat): quit stops delivery before it drains exit recovery

Every exit now wakes delivery, and teardown drained exit recovery before it stopped delivery, so an
exit settled in that window could start a fresh agent that teardown then killed. Teardown stops
delivery first; queued messages wait for the next launch.

* docs(native-chat): the unverifiable-exit refusal no longer names a caller's wait

The caller's bounded wait was removed; the comment describes the close as it is now.

* fix(native-chat): a stop whose kill did not take is logged, and the next ask kills again

When a close's kill leaves the agent's root running, the host now logs it. Tests pin what a later
ask does: each connection runs its whole stop again (Codex sends SIGKILL a second time), refuses
input meanwhile, and proves the exit once the kill takes.

* fix(native-chat): a start refused over the old process says Orca couldn't stop it

The host reaches an unverifiable verdict only after its own kill left the agent's root running, on
the machine that runs the agent, so the sentence now says that: "Orca couldn't stop {agent}'s
previous process." The refusal reason, failure kind and wire shapes are unchanged. The host test
also checks the failed kill is logged.

* docs(native-chat): an unverifiable close verdict is a root that survived the kill

The host's close runs where the agent runs, so lost contact never yields this verdict; the comment no longer says it does.

* fix(native-chat): a kill that did not take is reported once, by whoever met it

The log added at the close fired beside a Stop's own failure report for the same event. A stop
still reports it through its failure; a send or option change refused over it now logs it at the
refusal, the only place it is otherwise invisible.

* test(native-chat): a second Stop joins a close the first could not prove and retries its kill

* fix(native-chat): say a start refused beside an unstopped process plainly

The rejection now reads "Couldn't stop {{agent}} from before. Send your message again to try once more."
This kind has its own send-again step; every other failure keeps "Send your message to try again."

Brennan Benson c6cfcc034e refactor(native-chat): structured chat failures always reach the diagnostics log (#24312)
* refactor(native-chat): give the structured chat host one required logger

The structured chat runtime took an optional onError callback that the
desktop never passed, so a late dispatch settlement, an unanswered-dispatch
release, a journal event-sink write and a provider lifecycle delivery that
failed were dropped with no trace. Other host failures went to scattered
console.warn calls, which reach nothing in a packaged desktop build.

The runtime and host now take one required logger (warn/error with a scope
and fields). The production logger writes each entry as a failed span to
<userData>/logs/main.trace.ndjson, which the diagnostic bundle collects, and
to the console (stderr under a supervised headless host). The runtime and the
host wrap it so a logger that throws never fails what it reports, and the
install refuses without one. Sites that deliberately kept a recovery-capsule
error out of the log still log no error object.

* refactor(native-chat): hand the chat host's collaborators the logger, and give orcad its trace file

The delivery loop, idle sweep, queued-message drain, lease renewer, event
sink, conversation map and provider start/exit settlement each took an
internal error callback that the host mapped onto the logger. They now take
the logger itself and log under their own scope. The event sink keeps one
onFailed hook, which decides whether to stop the provider, not whether to
report. The dead-generation settlement returns its failure so each caller
logs it under its own scope.

orcad now installs the desktop's local trace sink under its own data root, so
a headless host's chat failures reach <data-root>/logs/main.trace.ndjson as
well as stderr.

Also passes the logger in the test fixtures the first commit missed, which
tc:node caught.

* fix(native-chat): keep repeated chat failures from flooding the trace file, and record their causes

- The production structured-chat logger writes a repeated failure (same level, scope, session,
  message and error text) once per 5 minutes, carrying how many repeats it swallowed; the
  tracked set is capped at 256.
- Trace entries now carry the error's code (and SQLite errcode) and up to three causes by name and
  message.
- A chat read whose conversation will not open is logged through the host's logger
  (open-for-read), and so are the runtime's chat-tab bookkeeping failures that already hold the
  host.
- orcad writes its own orcad.trace.ndjson, closes it after every quit handler, and flushes it on
  process exit; a trace file that cannot be opened leaves tracing off instead of stopping the app
  or orcad.
- Tests: the desktop wiring test proves the logger reaches the trace sink, and the privacy tests
  read every level the logger received.

* fix(native-chat): log a created chat's tab-publication and launch-prompt failures through the host's logger

* fix(native-chat): key a repeated chat failure on everything its entry writes

The repeat suppression keyed on the message and the error's text, so two refusals with the same
code but different causes, a plain error and a refusal of one code, or two object-valued errors
shared a key and the second was swallowed for five minutes. The key is now the entry's whole
written content (fields, code, errcode, refusal reason, cause chain, a stable rendering of a
non-error value) plus the error's name and message; a refusal's reason is also written.

* test(native-chat): pin that an error's name keeps two repeated failures apart

* test(native-chat): build the refusal in the repeat-key test as the wire does

* fix(native-chat): read an error's code and a refusal's reason by narrowing, not Reflect.get

Brennan Benson 0b79720c2e feat(native-chat): the chat strip and the sidebar read the host's child records (#22614)
* feat(native-chat): publish the host's child records to the status summary and the chat strip

The status summary and the background-task channel now read a session's child
records from the host's canonical store, through the status sink its row
landed in, and derive the legacy task and subagent shapes from the same views.
The parent row folds its child-work liveness from those records at ingest,
not from the summary's task list. The adapters no longer push their task DTO
to clients: the onBackgroundTasksChanged path is gone, and a child-work ingest
is what republishes both the summary and the strip. Finished children stay
listed until the session's own next turn starts. A reader that predates child
views never receives a roster whose rows are all settled.

* feat(native-chat): the chat strip reads the host's child records with its parent's verdict

The strip's roster now renders from the child views its channel carries, and
passes the verdict the session's own status row gives its children, built the
way the sidebar builds it (the row's freshness and the status feed's
observation). So one child reads the same in the strip and the sidebar, live,
after the transport drops, and once the row goes stale. A roster of finished
children stays shown until the next turn but no longer animates the monitoring
indicator or blocks conversation commands.

Tests: an end-to-end run on a host with no renderer (a real hook server as the
status sink) shows the summary and the strip channel carrying the same records
at every step, the parent row folded from them, retention, and an older
client's task list holding live work only; a wired renderer test shows both
surfaces agree when live, lost and stale.

* test(native-chat): a newer host's view degrades, an older reader keeps its live roster, a finished roster holds nothing open

- The view decoder ignores unknown keys, degrades unknown kinds, states,
  outcomes and memberships, and drops only rows it cannot identify.
- At the RPC boundary a reader that predates child views gets no strip for a
  roster of finished children and never the views themselves; a stop-only
  reader keeps rows whose host offers no targeted stop.
- The strip shows finished children without reading them as live work.
- The row keeps its child list's identity when a summary repeats it.

* refactor(native-chat): the summary's task list is the legacy projection's live rows, unfiltered

* test(native-chat): type the switch tests' mocks instead of asserting them

* test: remote clients advertise reading child views

* docs(agent-status): the structured row folds the store's child records

* fix(agent-status): keep the view reader's header from reading as a value import to the renderer boundary

The renderer node-builtin boundary test scans raw text, so a header comment
that said "imports" ahead of the import block turned the type-only import of
agent-status-child-work into a value edge that reaches node:crypto.

* refactor(native-chat): the status summary's broadcast equality gets its own module

The status feed crossed the file-size limit once the summary gained the main agent's turn
outcome beside the child views. Which summary changes reach every session list now lives in
structured-agent-session-status-summary-equality.ts.

* fix(native-chat): command admission reads the strip's child records

A conversation command was refused on the provider tracker's own roster
while the strip read the host's child records, so a drift between the two
rule sets could refuse /clear with a stop instruction the strip had no
button for. Admission now reads the same records through the same read as
the strip, uses the strip's liveness fold, and asks for a stop only when
the strip renders one. The adapter contract no longer exposes the tracker
roster, so no host decision can read it.

Also records when the legacy child shapes die, every earlier death of a
settled child, and the display-precision invariant behind the summary's
clock tolerance.

* refactor(native-chat): command admission takes only what it reads of a turn

* fix(native-chat): the session list drops a session's children when the store does

A session's end no longer removes its child records: a child still running
settles with an outcome nobody reported, and a finished one stays listed.
Records now leave only at the session's own next turn, at the cap on settled
records, or when the host lets go of the session and its row leaves the store.

The summary kept after the host lets go used to strip its children on close,
a rule of its own. It now re-reads them from the store when the row leaves,
through the same read every live summary uses, so the session list and the
chat strip list the same children at each step, including a forget with no
close. Closing only revokes ownership, as before the child records existed.

* test(native-chat): write the Codex frame script's parent row out step by step

Once every surface reads the child records, the provider tracker's roster is
no oracle: it and the records read the same child executions, so agreeing
with it cannot catch a defect in either. Each frame now states the child
liveness and the parent row it must fold to.

* fix(native-chat): the idle sweep and the restart snapshot read the host's child records

The idle sweep (keep an agent running while its subagents or commands run) and
the restart-resume snapshot (what a chat was doing when Orca stopped it) both
read the provider tracker's roster through the adapter interface, which no
longer carries it. Both now take the host's one child-record read, the same one
the status summary, the chat strip and command admission use.

The snapshot's working test also folded that roster through the shared fold's
old `backgroundTasks` input, which the fold no longer reads, so a settled lead
whose subagent was still running would have been offered nothing. It now hands
the fold the records.

* test(native-chat): the child-record tests follow the merged command lifecycle

A command is a live child record from its start and is removed, not settled,
when it stops, whatever Codex tagged it. The end-to-end switch now shows the
child's `npm test` as a live row beside its dev server, and both are gone once
they exit; only the finished subagent stays listed until the next turn. Letting
go of the session is its tab closing, since a closed conversation whose tab
remains keeps its row.

Command admission's finished row is a subagent, the one kind that settles, and
the failed-verdict row test admits its live subagent as a host record, the only
thing the row folds.

* refactor(native-chat): the status feed's journal projection cache gets its own module

The status feed crossed the file-size limit once the child records joined the
agent-start signal and the completion feed's status read. The per-journal
projection, cached per commit, now lives in
structured-agent-session-status-journal-projection.ts.

* test(native-chat): the admission test's compaction resolves with a real outcome

Main's compaction result is a tagged outcome; the host-level admission test
resolved its mock compaction with an empty object.

* feat(native-chat): the sidebar lists running subagents; the strip, running then the newest finished

The host keeps every child record; what each surface lists is picked from them on every read, so
nothing is stored twice. The status summary, which every session list reads, now carries only
running children (and a finished one whose shell still runs, which reads monitoring): a finished
or failed subagent leaves the sidebar and stays in the chat's strip. The strip lists every running
child, then the newest finished ones, 100 rows in all; more than 100 running all show.

This matches common practice: sidebars show live subagents, and finished ones stay in the chat's
panel, newest first. No wire field is added. An older client reads fewer rows: its legacy task
lists were already live-only in the summary, and the strip's settled tasks come from the same
bounded roster.

* fix(sidebar): one rule for what the worktree sidebar lists: running children, from every source

`worktreeSidebarListsChild` is the one definition: a child that runs, counting a finished one
whose own shell still runs (it reads monitoring). The sidebar's row builder applies it to every
child source it reads, a terminal agent's hook roster and a chat session's records alike, and the
host's status summary applies the same predicate, so the sidebar's payload stays small. The chat's
strip keeps finished children, newest first.

A terminal agent's hook roster already drops a child on its own stop, so nothing changes there:
a teammate between turns and a child gone quiet still run, and still show. The selection module
moves to `agent-child-work-listing.ts`, since it now covers every source, not only chat sessions.

* test(native-chat): the switch test passes the startup child key main's status bar takes

* fix(native-chat): a finished child stays until the user's next send, not a turn Claude opens on its own

Claude wakes the agent on its own when a background task ends, and that wake is a
new root turn. Keying retention on the newest root turn retired every finished
child about two seconds after a background agent or shell finished, so its
outcome never showed in the strip.

Retention now keys on the user's newest send the provider accepted (a message, a
steer or a command), with the journal epoch so a rewind still retires. A turn the
provider opens itself and a subagent's turn carry no send. Replayed captured wake
orders through the real adapter, hook server and status feed.

* fix(native-chat): a background Stop reaches the tasks the child records show

The strip draws a row's Stop, and /clear, /compact and rewind wait for background
work, from the host's child records, but the Claude adapter still resolved which
tasks a Stop reached from its own tracker's roster, and refused to stop at all
once that roster was empty. A task the records kept live after the roster dropped
it showed a Stop that sent nothing and blocked those commands until the chat tab
closed.

The host now resolves the provider ids a Stop sends from the records (the same
per-row rule the strip and admission use; every such row for stop-all), and the
adapter stops exactly those, with no tracker guard. An acknowledged stop ends the
record: a running task sends its own stopped frame first, and the CLI answers
success with no frame for a task it no longer knows. A refused stop leaves the
record live. No production code reads the tracker's roster any more.

* fix(native-chat): one rule for a finished child that still owns live work, at any depth

The listing kept a finished child whose work ran through any depth of ownership,
but retention at the user's next turn protected only the direct owner, so a
finished agent whose finished subagent still ran a shell was removed and that
subagent jumped to the top level. Both now read settledOwnersOfLiveWork.

* fix(native-chat): an older client sees a Codex child's shell as it did before views

Clients that predate child views read a flat task roster derived from the views.
It listed a Codex child agent's shell as an extra row beside the running agent,
then as a bare command once the agent finished. The derivation now hides a
running agent's commands and names a finished agent's as "<agent> — <command>",
as the Codex tracker did; the label rule moves to a shared module both use.

* fix(native-chat): the chat decodes a roster's child rows once, as the frame arrives

The client reducer compared raw wire rows, so a row shaped by a newer host could
throw there, and the strip decoded a new array on every render, which defeated its
grouped-rows memo while a turn streamed. Rows are now decoded where the frame
enters the reducer, an unchanged roster keeps its identity, and the strip's parent
context is rebuilt only when one of its values changes.

* fix(native-chat): the strip channel forgets a closed conversation's roster

It kept the last roster fingerprint of every conversation for the host's lifetime.
The conversation map now tells observers when one leaves it. Also corrects the
summary's children comment: it carries running children only.

* docs(native-chat): rewrap the retention comment

* fix(native-chat): a task's own ending replaces a Stop's, and a child finished after the user wrote stays

Two lifecycle gaps from the round-1 fixes.

A Stop acknowledged ahead of the task's own ending relabelled it. The SDK hands
Orca a control answer as soon as it reads it and queues other frames, so when a
task finished just as the user pressed Stop, the acknowledgement arrived before
the task's completion the CLI wrote first, and the task read "Stopped" with its
result lost. An acknowledged Stop now ends a record provisionally (outcome basis
`stop-acknowledged`); the task's own terminal frame replaces it, and nothing
replaces an ending the task reported itself.

A finished child still vanished with no new action from the user when the send
the provider took was written before the child finished: a steer Claude takes at
its next boundary, or a queued draft handed over at the end of the turn. The
user's next turn now carries when they acted (the send's written time, or the
draft's queued time, both on the host clock), and only children that finished at
or before it retire; a later one stays until the user's next send. A rewind
still retires every finished child.

Also: a Stop-all keeps stopping the remaining tasks after one request fails, then
reports the failure.

* fix(native-chat): the strip keeps one empty list for a roster that omits one

A roster with only running or only finished rows made a new empty array on every
render, so the strip regrouped its rows each time. One shared empty list keeps
its memo.

* fix(native-chat): a strip row whose owner the 100-row budget cut renders under the main agent

The budget can keep a finished child and cut its finished owner. The child still
named that owner, so it rendered nowhere. The selection now clears an owner it
did not keep, as the view contract says for an owner outside the projection.

* fix(native-chat): a stop-all that times out stops asking, and "no children" is sent once

A stop-all kept asking after a request timed out, so a Claude CLI that stopped
answering control requests cost one full deadline per task, while the chat's
sends, Stop and /compact waited behind it. A timeout now ends the loop; other
request failures still let the remaining tasks be stopped.

The chat strip channel never remembered that it had sent "no children", so
every change in a chat with none re-sent that frame to each subscriber. It now
remembers it, and forgets only when the conversation closes.

Also renames agent-child-work-stop.ts to agent-child-work-stop-targets.ts, which
says what it answers: the provider ids a background Stop reaches.

* fix(native-chat): the status feed reads a journal snapshot with no submissions, and e2e tests use the child-work reader

CI on dbd2439cd4 was red in three places:
- first-work-branch-rename and the agentSession.subscribeStatus RPC test feed the status feed a
  journal whose snapshot lists items only. The projection reads the user's newest accepted send
  from `snapshot.submissions`; it now tolerates their absence, as the status projection beside
  it already did.
- the cross-version downgrade test still passed `backgroundTasks` to the teardown's working
  marker, which now takes `childWork`.
- an e2e unit test still gave the status feed the removed `readBackgroundTasks` dependency
  (harmless at run time, a type error in the tests/ project).

* fix(native-chat): the chat strip lists running children only, by the sidebar's rule, and hides when none runs

A finished subagent's result is already in the transcript ("Ran N subagents ·
completed"), so the strip is for work that runs. It now lists exactly what the
sidebar lists, by one predicate (a running child, or a finished one whose own
shell still runs, which reads monitoring), and the host sends no roster once none
runs, so the strip hides.

Gone with it: the 100-row budget and the running-then-newest-finished
selection, the re-homing of a child whose owner the budget cut, and the RPC
gate's rule for a roster of finished rows only (no such roster exists now).
Older clients still get their derived task list, running work only.

Finished records still stay in the host's store until the user's next accepted
message: they refuse a late frame of their run, let a task's own ending replace
an acknowledged Stop's, and keep a running shell's owner. Dating that retention
by when the user wrote the message only kept finished rows visible longer, so it
is removed.

* fix(native-chat): the strip shows running work only from any host, and hides after a released session's last child

- A new app paired with an older host no longer shows that host's finished task
  rows: the strip lists running work only, whatever host sent it, and hides when
  an older host's roster has only finished rows left.
- A test for the path that hides the strip when a session's last running child
  settles after the provider let go of the session (Claude's release path): the
  channel sends `null` though no provider answers for the session any more.
- A test comment still described the strip keeping finished children.

Brennan Benson 5cda0f4508 refactor(native-chat): keep agent-session records in the chat journal database (#24006)
* fix(native-chat): report a failed startup chat reconcile instead of failing app startup

At startup the chat host re-checks every saved chat's lease and writes the
result to agent-sessions.json. If that write failed (the file lock gave up,
the file could not be written, or the file was written by a newer Orca and
is read-only here), reconcileRestartLeases rejected, the startup IPC call
rejected, and the renderer fell into its degraded "Session restore failed.
Changes won't be saved until restart" mode.

The reconcile is bookkeeping: a lease left unreconciled grants no writer,
and every attach, send and read of a chat reconciles its own lease again.
So the startup reconcile now reports its failure through a new optional
host dependency, onStartupReconcileFailure, and resolves. The runtime
routes it to its onError sink under the scope
structured-agent-session-startup-reconcile, or logs it when no sink is
installed (the desktop installs none).

* fix(native-chat): read restored chats without waiting on lease bookkeeping

With native chat on and a chat tab open at quit, the renderer's startup
also awaits the chat tab restore (session.tabs.listAll). That restore
re-ran the lease reconcile before reading each chat and rethrew its store
failure, then recorded each restored tab as visible through a store
transaction that throws on a held lock or a read-only store. Either one
failed the restore, so startup still fell into "Session restore failed".

Reading a chat grants no writer, so the reconcile startup and the restore
run is now a reader's: createReaderReconcile never throws, answers whether
every lease is settled (recovery is resolved only then; the journal opens
either way), and reports each distinct failure once until a reconcile
settles. Attach and agent start keep the strict reconcile. The restore's
tab republish logs a failed visibility write and still publishes the tab,
since a client drops every unpublished chat tab; user-driven publishes
still refuse.

The host dependency is renamed onLeaseReconcileFailure (scope
structured-agent-session-lease-reconcile), since it now also reports for
reads.

* fix(native-chat): keep every record-store write off the startup chat read path

Round-2 review found two more writes on the startup chat restore that
could still fail it and put the app into "Session restore failed":
republishing a /clear replacement recorded its tab visibility strictly,
and resolving a chat's recovery rethrew its store error. The restore
also paid one lock wait per tab and per batch of chats while the lock
stayed held.

The restore now derives tabs from state it already holds:
- publishStructuredAgentSessionTab splits into the strict write and
  projectStructuredAgentSessionTab, which only updates the runtime's
  snapshot. The restore and /clear replacements only project: a saved
  tab index already lists every restored chat, and a /clear moves the
  tab in the same write that commits it. visibilityWriteMayFail is gone.
- Chats a legacy profile restores that the index does not list are
  recorded in one best-effort transaction (store.showSessionTabs), so a
  failure leaves the index absent to seed again rather than partial.
- The read restore's recovery resolution is caught and reported through
  onLeaseReconcileFailure, deduplicated with the reconcile's reports.
- Once lease bookkeeping fails in a restore pass, the rest of that pass
  skips it, so a held lock costs one wait for the startup reconcile and
  one for the restore, however many chats are open.

User actions (create, reveal, attach, send, the /clear commit) keep
their strict writes.

* test: open, seed and read the agent-session record store through one harness

Tests that open the durable agent-session record store, seed it, or read
back what it persisted now go through agent-session-record-store-test-harness.ts
instead of calling AgentSessionRecordStore.open or touching agent-sessions.json
themselves. A later change that moves the store into the chat database then
changes the harness instead of every test. No production code changes.

Tests whose subject is the JSON file itself (its .bak recovery, salvage,
schema versions, permissions, and what older builds read back) keep reading
and writing the file directly; the storage move rewrites or deletes them.

* fix(native-chat): start each restore pass from one lease check and stop its bookkeeping at the first failure

The restore now runs one reader lease check for the pass and lets each chat
re-check and resolve recovery only while the pass is still settled. The
first refusal or failed write clears it for the rest of the pass, and every
chat is still opened for reading. With another process holding the lock,
startup waits on it once in prepare and once in the restore, however many
chats are open; a legacy profile waits once more for its tab-index seed.

* docs(native-chat): correct restore comments and a test name to match the final design

* test: address the record-store harness by the host's state directory

The harness took the store's own folder, so each caller picked one
(join(root, 'store'), or 'agent-sessions' where a test read the store the
runtime owns). A later change that moves the store into the state
directory's journal database could not tell those apart, and would have
had to edit every caller again.

Every harness function now takes the state directory, the one the test's
journal database and recovery capsule already live in, and keeps the
store in the same subfolder the runtime uses. Callers pass that directory;
store-only tests pass their temp directory unchanged. Format tests that
share a directory with harness calls take the file path from
testAgentSessionStoreFilePath.

The folder name moves from a private constant in the runtime to
AGENT_SESSION_STORE_DIR_NAME beside the store's file name, so the harness
shares it without importing the runtime. Its value and every path built
from it are unchanged.

* refactor(native-chat): keep agent-session records in the chat journal database

The record store's records, operation ledger, retired claim keys and chat tab
index become tables in agent-session-journal.db (user_version 4). The version-4
migration copies agent-sessions.json in its own transaction and never writes,
renames or deletes that file or its .bak. Each store write is one journal
transaction over exactly the rows it changed, checked with the load rules; the
file lock, the external-change refresh and its hash, the .bak rotation, salvage
and the hot-path recovery fence are gone from the store.

* wip: importer tests

* test(native-chat): cover the records migration, the import, row writes and read-only records

* docs(native-chat): retire comments that describe the records file as the live store

* test(native-chat): drop the record-store harness's leftover file path and type the import fixture

* test(native-chat): let the host harness cleanup wait out a recovery-offer read's lock

* fix(native-chat): let Stop reach the agent when its ledger row cannot be written

Stop's operation-ledger row now shares the database with the chat history, so
damage, a full disk or a stranded transaction on that write refused the Stop
before the interrupt. A cancel plan now takes its decision from the committed
ledger in memory, runs without settling, and warns that the row was skipped.
Other mutations answer proven damage with the typed "Unable to load this chat."
refusal instead of the raw SQLite error.

* fix(native-chat): answer whether a profile holds chats from the database's rows

Every host install creates agent-session-journal.db, chats or not, and the
version probe created it too, so its mere existence made every profile that
ever installed the host wait on host install and reconcile at startup. The
check now opens the database read-only and looks for a record or tab row,
lets the records file answer while its import is still owed, and counts an
unreadable database as present. The version probe no longer creates the file.

* fix(native-chat): open a chat from history when its tab index cannot be written

Over records a newer Orca wrote, every write is refused, so opening a closed
chat from Agent Session History failed on the tab-visibility write and the chat
read as unreachable. Like closing a tab, opening one now reports a failed
restore-index write and still publishes the tab.

* fix(native-chat): keep the records import owed when the backup read fails transiently

A torn records file whose .bak could not be read (EACCES, EIO) was reported as
unusable, so the migration completed with nothing copied and never retried.
A non-ENOENT read failure of either copy now carries its cause, which the
importer classifies as a read that can clear.

* test(native-chat): pin that an unreadable records file never falls back to its backup

* fix(native-chat): restore imported chats' tabs when the records file had no tab index

A chat created while the import was owed recorded a tab index holding only
itself. When the file it later imported had no index, that index still read
as recorded, so the imported chats' tabs never came back. The import now
clears the recorded marker in that case, and restore falls back to the
profile's tabs.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the unused in-transaction store write

Nothing called it, and it bypassed the write queue and the read-only refusal.

* docs(native-chat): say that an unusable records file is left untouched but never re-imported

* refactor(native-chat): keep the provider handle chain check as main has it

The chain-validation refactor has no measured need in this change.

* docs(native-chat): retire lease-renewer comments that describe the records file as the live store

* fix(native-chat): keep a throwing failure sink from failing the startup chat read

The lease bookkeeping failure reporter called the host's failure sink
directly, so a sink that threw turned a reported, recoverable store failure
back into a rejected startup reconcile or read restore. The reporter now
catches a sink throw and logs both the original failure and the sink error
with console.warn.

* test(native-chat): wait for a replaced host's restart-offer writes before cleanup

A restart test replaces the host without tearing the old one down, so the old
host's fire-and-forget restart-offer withdrawal could still hold the recovery
capsule's lock directory when cleanup removed the test directory (ENOTEMPTY).
The harness now hands hosts a capsule that tracks running operations and waits
for them before removing the directory, replacing the rm retries.

* docs(native-chat): retire the abandon helper's note that the store re-creates its directory

* fix(native-chat): restore a chat opened while the import was owed beside the profile's chats

When the imported records file had no tab index, restore fell back to the
profile's saved tabs, which never list a Claude chat, and the seed then
rewrote the tab table without the chat opened while the import was owed.
The tab rows that chat left are now loaded as unrecorded, restore takes them
together with the profile's chats, and the seed keeps their tab ids.

* test(native-chat): pin that a create whose tab index write fails still opens the chat

* docs(native-chat): say why restore puts chats opened while the import was owed first

* test(native-chat): replace a ledger row rather than change it in place in the Send-now rerun test

The record store freezes published rows in tests, so setting a row's outcome
in place threw; the test now swaps in a changed copy, as its sibling cases do.

Brennan Benson 007b7c0d32 fix(claude): end a message Claude started but never confirmed, and keep Claude running while it holds one (#23898)
* fix(claude): settle a queued send the CLI withdrew from its own cancelled frame

Claude reports each uuid-stamped command's lifecycle (queued, started,
completed, cancelled). A send it withdraws from its queue gets `cancelled`
before the interrupt or cancel_async_message answer, so a lost or failed
answer no longer leaves that send pending: it settles as withdrawn, with the
same reason and words as the receipt path.

A command the CLI already started also ends `cancelled` when its turn is
interrupted or fails, so `cancelled` after `started` is not a withdrawal;
an echoed send has left the waiter lists and is never reached.

Tests replay real 2.1.280 captures, scrubbed.

* fix(claude): release a doubted send when the CLI reports its session idle

A Claude send whose write ended in doubt is recorded `unknown`, and a live
`unknown` reads as work still owed, so the chat showed Working until the
child exited. Claude sends `session_state_changed idle` only once its whole
queue has drained, so it can no longer be holding that send. The runtime now
routes that report to the host's existing release, the same one Codex's
thread-stopped report uses; it retires `unknown` only, never `pending`.

* fix(claude): keep a command's started mark when a redelivery re-emits queued; fixtures name msg_lifecycle_v1

* fix(claude): settle every terminal lifecycle state of a send the CLI never echoed

A send the CLI started, then cancelled before any echo, stayed pending: it may
already be in the conversation, so it is released as doubt (unknown, recovered),
never withdrawn and never re-sent. A late echo still accepts it.

The 2.1.280 schema has two more terminal states. `discarded` (the CLI ended its
session with the send still queued) settles as not delivered; `refused`
(declined before it queued) settles as not accepted by the provider. After
`started`, either one is doubt, as `cancelled` is.

The late-settlement path gains an `unknown` outcome, which the host records as
released doubt.

* fix(claude): release a send the CLI took but left unanswered when it goes idle

`session_state_changed idle` comes only once the CLI's queue has drained, so a
send it took that is still unanswered there got no echo and never will: a turn
that throws can leave `started` with no terminal state. Idle releases it as
doubt.

What proves the CLI took a send is its lifecycle frame. On a CLI that reports no
lifecycle, it is the send's place on stdin: one whose write finished before an
interrupt went out was read before the interrupt was, so the first idle after
that interrupt releases it too. A send armed ahead of the interrupt but written
after it is left alone, since the CLI may still run it.

* fix(native-chat): keep the idle sweep off a Claude child that holds a send

A Claude retrying a rate-limited request has taken the send but echoes nothing,
so no turn row exists yet and the sweep rested the child after the idle window,
turning the send into doubt. The adapter now reports whether the CLI holds a
send (lifecycle `queued` or `started`, not yet echoed or ended), derived from
the live waiters, and owed work counts it.

Nothing is stored: every held send leaves the live set on its echo, its
terminal lifecycle state, the CLI's idle, or the child's exit, so the hold ends
with the send.

* fix(claude): count only a started send at idle and as a held send

2.1.280's end-of-turn cleanup can report idle before it re-reads its queue, so
a send read in that window goes queued, idle, started. Releasing every taken
send at idle doubted that live send and dropped Working. Only a `started` send
is released at idle or keeps the child from the idle sweep; a `queued` one ends
by starting and echoing, by a terminal lifecycle frame, or with the child.

The stdin-order path for CLIs without lifecycle frames is removed: a doubted
send retired there disables content matching on CLIs that mint their own echo
ids, and no Orca failure called for it. Those CLIs keep the earlier behaviour.

Comments that said only a failed write or child exit ends a waiter, or that
idle comes only once the queue has drained, now say what ends one.

* docs(claude): say only what the CLI's lifecycle frames and idle actually prove

* fix(claude): hold the idle sweep while Claude has a send queued, not only started

The sweep rested a child whose CLI had queued a follow-up behind a turn, dropping
the send it had already taken. The hold now spans the CLI reporting it took the
send until its echo, a terminal lifecycle state, or the child's exit. The idle
release still covers only started sends: 2.1.280 can report idle before it
re-reads its queue.

* refactor(native-chat): give provider-proven late dispatch settlement its own module

* test(claude): pin a steer a Stop interrupts after it started as doubt, not withdrawn

Brennan Benson ba39c6d5fd fix(native-chat): a failed startup chat-lease save no longer puts the app into "Session restore failed" (#23964)
* fix(native-chat): report a failed startup chat reconcile instead of failing app startup

At startup the chat host re-checks every saved chat's lease and writes the
result to agent-sessions.json. If that write failed (the file lock gave up,
the file could not be written, or the file was written by a newer Orca and

Brennan Benson 59b746ff3c feat(native-chat): one structured-chat journal database per host, owned by one process (#23613)
* feat(native-chat): one structured-chat journal database per host, owned by one process

Every structured chat on a state directory now lives in one SQLite file,
agent-session-journal.db, opened once by the process holding
agent-session-journal.owner: an empty SQLite file whose held BEGIN EXCLUSIVE is a
kernel byte-range lock, refused while another process holds it and released when
the holder dies.

- Stores own no connection: the per-chat handle, its close contract and the
  close-retry registry are gone; closing a conversation drains its writes, and the
  one connection closes last at teardown.
- The owner lock is taken at runtime start, before orca-runtime.json is written;
  a process that does not own the chats is not published and refuses every
  structured request with journalUnavailable and words that say what to do. It
  retries the lock with backoff and runs the full install once it holds it.
- A journal that will not open fails the host install: every chat says "Unable
  to load this chat." (journalCorrupt), and nothing is renamed, deleted or
  rebuilt. A newer build's database is refused and left byte-identical.
- An append is one INSERT. The listing status is a column, written after the
  rows it describes and keyed by (epoch, sequence).
- A per-chat journal from an earlier build is copied in verbatim (epoch UUID and
  every sequence) on that chat's first open, and its directory is retired only
  after the copy commits.
- auto_vacuum = INCREMENTAL, with freed pages handed back in bounded steps after
  every delete.

* perf(native-chat): key journal rows by block so one chat's rows sit together

Each chat's live epoch owns a block of row ids, block * 2^32 + seq, so a chat's
rows share leaf pages with nobody else's, a replay is one range scan, and
replacing or rewinding a chat deletes one contiguous range. Measured on the
largest real chat (61 MB) beside 19 interleaved peers: 39 ms and 7.5 MB of WAL,
against 214 ms and 102 MB for a (session_id, epoch, seq) key.

- Ids are computed in Number arithmetic, never bitwise. A sequence is refused
  outside [1, 2^32) and a block at 2^21, which keeps every id below 2^53.
- A replace, roll or import allocates a fresh block, moves the chat's pointer,
  and deletes the old block in the same transaction, so no orphan block exists.
- The listing status write moves into its own writer beside the column.

* feat(native-chat): copy a chat's per-chat journal again when an older Orca wrote it after a downgrade

A per-chat journal.db that reappears after its chat was copied in is the newer
history: an older build, run after a downgrade, attached the chat and wrote it.

- journal_imports records the (epoch, tip) each chat was copied from, in the
  copy's own transaction. A file already copied is never copied again, across
  any number of restarts after a failed rename; a file that differs always is.
- Newest writer wins, per chat, with a row saying the chat was continued in an
  older version of Orca. When both builds wrote past the recorded tip under one
  epoch, the copy takes a fresh epoch, so readers reset instead of skipping rows.
- Each copied directory retires to its own .imported-<epoch8>-<ms> name, so a
  second downgrade and re-upgrade never collides with the first.

* test(native-chat): fixture deps match the host journal database shape

Attach-flow and reconcile-attach fixtures stop passing a journal database those inputs do not take, and host and restore fixtures pass the one they now require instead of the removed journal root.

* test(native-chat): state why the runtime-state fixtures' existing casts are safe

* fix(native-chat): start up normally when this process cannot open the chat journal

A process refused the chat journal, because another Orca owns it or because its own journal will not open, failed startup restoration: the window booted in degraded no-save mode and a paired phone could not list any tabs. Startup restoration now treats the refusal structured requests are getting as having no structured host; terminals, tabs and saving go on, structured requests are still refused by the gate, and the install is retried on the next one. Any other install error fails startup as before.

* test(native-chat): name the owner-lock sweep test after the two sweeps it runs

* fix(native-chat): session history and terminal resume work while chats are refused

Session history (listing and preparing a resume) and a terminal typing a resume command only check whether a structured chat owns a provider session. In a process refused the chat journal they failed outright. They now take the refusal chats are getting as having no structured host, the same treatment startup restoration gets, through one shared helper; any other install failure still fails them. Chat requests keep the gate's refusal.

* test(native-chat): the first-work rename's fake journal saves the listing status

* fix(native-chat): open a chat whose per-chat journal file never got its schema

A crash between creating a chat's journal.db and creating its tables left an empty or schema-less file. Each chat used to open that file as an empty chat; the importer instead refused the open as "try again" forever. A file with no journal_sessions table is now read as never written, the same as one with no rows. A file that is not a database, or whose read fails, is still refused.

* fix(native-chat): let the event loop run between chats during startup restore

Opening a chat's journal is synchronous SQLite now that no per-chat directory
is created first, so the restore of every visible chat ran as one main-thread
task. Each chat now waits for a macrotask before it opens.

* fix(native-chat): import a per-chat journal in bounded batches

The one-time copy of an earlier build's per-chat journal ran as one
transaction, which blocked the main thread for 650 ms on the largest chat.
Rows now copy 512 at a time, each batch its own transaction, yielding to the
event loop between batches. The rows go into a block journal_import_blocks
reserves, which no reader follows and no other chat is allocated; the last
batch publishes the chat's pointer, repair marker and import marker together
and releases the reservation. A copy that stops midway leaves only that
block, which the next open clears and copies again. Two opens of one chat
import one after the other.

* fix(native-chat): refuse chats when the owner lock file cannot be opened

A lock file that is not a database, or cannot be opened, made the claim throw
before any refusal was recorded, so startup restoration failed on every
launch. The claim now sits in the same try as the database open and records
the same typed refusal.

* fix(native-chat): finish reclaiming pages a delete frees during a running pass

A reclaim pass ended as soon as the freelist stopped shrinking between steps,
so a second delete that freed more than one step's worth mid-pass ended it
early and left those pages on the freelist. A pass now ends only when a step
itself frees nothing, or the freelist is empty.

* test(native-chat): desktop session history is served while chats are refused

* fix(native-chat): a send to a chat holding a newer Orca's rows says to update

A chat opened read-only because a newer Orca wrote rows to it answered a send
with the generic write failure. It now refuses the way a database a newer Orca
wrote does, with the same reason and words.

* fix(native-chat): keep chat tabs while this process cannot list its chats

A process whose chats another Orca owns, or whose chat journal will not
open, has no structured host. Its session-tabs inventory still answered,
with no chat rows, and the renderer read that as "every chat was closed":
it removed the restored chat tabs and the next session save persisted
their placement away.

The inventory now says `agentSessionsUnverifiable` when the last tab
restore ran with chats on disk but no host to list them. The flag is set
and cleared at the per-client projection point beside the client-hosted
page hold, and the restore is memoised only once a host answered, so a
later lock takeover or journal open republishes the chats and clears it.
The renderer keeps agent-session tabs, and keeps cancellation tombstones,
against an inventory that does not affirm its chat set.

* fix(native-chat): say chats are open in another Orca, with this process's way past it

A process refused because another Orca owns the profile's chats sent the
generic `journalUnavailable` reason, so current desktop and phone surfaces
said "couldn't open this chat's history right now. Try again." — a step
that never helps while the other Orca runs.

The refusal now names its own reason, `journalOwnedElsewhere`, with the
refused process's kind (dev desktop, packaged, orcad) as a fact. Each kind
gets its own step: quit the other Orca, or give this one its own profile
(ORCA_DEV_USER_DATA_PATH) or data folder (ORCA_USER_DATA). The sentences
are added to the shared notice copy, the desktop catalogs in all six
locales, and the boot catalog.

A client that predates the reason reads it as none and keeps the code's
words; an unknown kind reads as the packaged app's step. The `message`
released clients print is unchanged. Which requests refuse does not change.

* fix(native-chat): restore chats on taking ownership, without a list to ask

A refused startup kept its hostless result, so after the owner quit this
process never installed a host, never reconciled restart leases, and kept
telling clients it could not list its chats until a desktop chat request.
Taking the lock now reruns startup restoration once and pushes the chats.

* test(native-chat): a navigation reply says chats are unverifiable while refused

* fix(native-chat): retry a refused owner lock at most every 5 seconds

The lock frees as its holder exits, but a refused process only learns that
on its next retry, and the 30 s cap left a second Orca refusing chats for up
to half a minute after the owner quit. One retry is an open and BEGIN
EXCLUSIVE on an empty file.

* fix(native-chat): install before deciding whether a takeover must republish chats

A list that landed on the refused startup after the lock was taken finished
after the takeover had already checked, so nothing republished. The takeover
now installs first, waits for any restore in flight, and restores only then;
the restore that clears "cannot tell" pushes the frames itself, so a list
that heals the inventory first reaches subscribers too.

* fix(native-chat): no takeover lands a host after the runtime stop

Quitting cancelled a refused claim's retry only at its end, so a retry firing
during the stop's awaits took the lock and installed a host the stop never
tore down, and the lock was then released under an open journal. The stop
now cancels the retry first, keeping the refusal, and repeats its teardown
while an install that began during it (a takeover already under way) is
pending, so no journal connection outlives the lock.

* fix(native-chat): show a thrown refusal in its own words, not its code

A refusal the host throws reaches the client as an RPC error whose message is
the bare code; its reason and facts ride only in the error's data, which no
client read. The chat pane's status line therefore printed
agent_session_journal_unreadable, a send took the bare "not sent" path, and
other writes said the outcome was unconfirmed.

One shared reader, agentSessionThrownRefusal, now reads the refusal from the
error data. A failed history read shows the refusal's read-history words, a
send keeps the refusal behind its Retry exactly as a returned refusal does, and
the other writes (desktop and phone) name the refusal instead of doubting the
outcome. The phone's read failure goes through the same reader.

* fix(native-chat): log a failed journal open once per distinct failure

Every chat request retries a journal open that failed, which is intended, but
each retry also logged the failure with its full stack: a junk database file
logged the same "file is not a database" error 189 times in a minute. The open
now logs a failure only when its code and message differ from the last one
logged, and forgets it once an open succeeds. The retry is unchanged.

The open moves to its own module beside the runtime, which had no room left.

* fix(native-chat): restore lists a chat from its per-chat file and copies it on first use

Startup restore opened every restored chat, and that open copied the chat's
per-chat file into the host database, so the first boot after an upgrade paid
the whole one-time copy before the chat list appeared.

A restore open now reads a chat that is still in its per-chat file straight
from that file, read-only, with the importer's own reader, and closes the file
before moving on. That read drives the listing, the status row and the
restart offer, as it did when every chat had its own file. The copy becomes
owed work on the chat's write queue: it runs before the chat's first write,
and a reader that reaches the chat awaits it. A chat the host already holds,
or that was copied before, still opens through the import and its reimport
rules, and so does a file whose read needs a repair written.

* fix(native-chat): no host stays registered after a stop an install spanned

Each teardown pass clears the registered host before it awaits an install in
flight, and that install registers its host when it finishes. The pass then
tore the host down but left it registered, so a request after the stop was
served by a host whose journal was closed. The stop now clears the slot once
its passes are done.

* fix(native-chat): checkpoint the journal with a full flush on macOS

synchronous = FULL fsyncs each commit, but macOS fsync leaves the drive cache
unflushed, so FULL alone does not survive a power loss there. With
checkpoint_fullfsync, each checkpoint uses F_FULLFSYNC; elsewhere it is a no-op.
The comment that said FULL alone was enough is corrected.

* fix(native-chat): delete a per-chat journal once its copy verifies

An imported chat's per-chat file was kept under an `.imported-*` name, which
doubled the disk its history takes. The copy now reads back from the host
database before it is published: its items, submissions, epoch and tip must
match the file's. Only then does one transaction publish the chat with its
import marker, and the file and its WAL files are deleted, the directory too
when nothing else is in it (a pre-SQLite transcript there is kept).

A copy that does not match is never published: the file stays, the chat is
refused as unreadable ("Unable to load this chat."), and the mismatch is logged
once. A file left behind by a failed delete or a crash matches the marker, so
the next open deletes it rather than copying it again; a file an older build
wrote after a downgrade still differs, and is still copied again.

* fix(native-chat): verify an imported chat a batch at a time

The check that a copied chat reads back as its per-chat file folded both whole,
each in one synchronous task: over half a second on the largest chat. Both
reads now go a batch at a time between turns of the event loop, like the copy
itself, and count rows as well, so a copy that lost a row with no item in it
is caught too.

* fix(native-chat): restore reads a chat's per-chat file a batch at a time

Restore folded a chat still in its per-chat file in one task, so the largest
chat's file held the main thread for about half a second at startup. The fold
now takes the file a batch of rows per turn of the event loop, into the same
fold a replay uses, and nothing reads it before it is done. The file is still
closed before restore moves on.

* fix(native-chat): end a per-chat copy on a turn of its own

A chat's first open ran the copy's last steps (the verified publish and the
per-chat file delete) and the replay of what was copied in one task. The copy
now yields before it returns, so the replay, which every open runs, is a task
of its own.

* fix(native-chat): commit a per-chat copy's batches without an fsync each

Each 512-row batch of a chat's first-use copy committed under synchronous =
FULL, so a large chat paid one fsync per batch, about a quarter of its first
open. The batches now commit under NORMAL, set and restored in the batch's own
task so no other chat's commit runs under it. The publish that makes the copy
visible still commits under FULL, and under WAL that sync makes every earlier
batch durable with it. A crash before it leaves only the unpublished block,
which the next open clears and copies again.

* fix(native-chat): roll back a chat journal transaction whose COMMIT fails

The shared connection's transaction rolled back only when its body threw. A
COMMIT that failed left the transaction open, so every later write, for any
chat, failed with "cannot start a transaction within a transaction", and reads
saw rows that never committed. Under the unsynced copy the failure also tried
to restore the sync level inside the open transaction, which SQLite refuses,
so the caller got that error instead of the COMMIT's.

One transaction helper now covers the body and the COMMIT, rolls back whatever
transaction survives, and rethrows the original error. Schema creation uses it
too. If that ROLLBACK fails as well, the connection is marked stranded: each
later use retries the ROLLBACK, and until one goes through every chat gets the
same "history unavailable, try again" refusal a journal that will not open
gives. The rollback that frees it also restores the FULL sync level.

* fix(native-chat): keep the chat journal connection until its close succeeds

Closing the journal dropped its connection handle before closing it. A close
that failed left the database reporting itself closed with the connection still
open, so the stop that retried the teardown found nothing to close and released
the owner lock over a live connection.

The handle is now dropped only once the close succeeds. A failed close keeps
the runtime pending and the lock held, and the next stop closes that same
connection before it releases the lock.

* fix(native-chat): publish the runtime only once it holds the chat journal lock

When this process could not open the owner lock file at all (a permission
error, or a file that is not a database), the runtime counted that as owning
the chats and wrote orca-runtime.json. That overwrote the real owner's entry,
so the CLI was sent to a process that cannot serve its chats.

A claim that throws is now refused like one another process holds: the runtime
starts but does not publish, the claim's existing retry keeps asking for the
lock, and discovery publishes once the retry takes it. Chats still get the
refusal for the failure itself, and startup restoration reruns on the takeover
the same way it does after another owner quits. A sole process whose lock file
never opens is not found by the CLI until it does.

* fix(native-chat): keep a chat's history when an older build started it over

The first copy deletes a chat's per-chat file, so an older build run after a
downgrade finds no file and starts the chat from nothing. On the re-upgrade that
fresh file was copied in as the newer history, replacing everything the shared
database held for the chat, and then deleted.

A file whose epoch is not the one last copied and that opens with
`session_created` is now kept: neither copied nor deleted, and the chat keeps
the history it has. A file that carried the copied epoch on is still copied
again, as before.

* test(native-chat): pin which chats startup restore copies

Restore copies a chat still in its per-chat file only when restore itself has
to write to it: settling what the last run left open, here a running tool call
or a send handed over and never answered. Every other restored chat stays in
its file until its first use.

* test(native-chat): pin the copy wait on a read that opens a chat restore opened

A read queued behind restore's open of the same chat reaches the conversation
through its own open rather than the listing. It must still wait for the
owed copy, or it reads the chat before its history is in the one database.

* fix(native-chat): record a set-aside per-chat file so no later open reads it

Setting aside a file an older build started over is decided once and kept in
the new `journal_set_aside` table (schema 2, additive), with the file's epoch
and tip as they were. Every later open of the chat skips the file without
opening it, across restarts and after the older build writes more to it:
anything written there grows from that build's own start, never from this
build's history.

The best-effort delete moves beside the per-chat file reader.

* fix(native-chat): set aside any per-chat file at an epoch this build never copied

A chat's per-chat file is deleted once its copy verifies, so a file that
reappears at another epoch was never this build's history, whatever its first
row says: an older build started the chat over, possibly rewinding it after
(`handle_forked`), or rolled the epoch of a file whose delete had failed.
Copying any of them would replace everything the chat holds, so each is set
aside. Only a file still at the copied epoch is copied again (it grew) or
deleted (it did not). The first-row check is gone.

* fix(native-chat): copy a reappearing per-chat file again only while this build has not written past the copy

A per-chat file that an older build carried on under the copied epoch was
copied again even when this build had also written to the chat since the
copy, or had rolled its epoch. The second copy replaced the chat's block,
so what was sent in this build after the copy was gone for good.

Now the file is copied again only when the chat still stands exactly as it
was copied: the same epoch and tip the import marker recorded. Otherwise it
is set aside like any other file that is not this build's history, left on
disk untouched and recorded so no later open reads it. A second copy
therefore never replaces rows this build wrote, keeps the file's own epoch,
and the fresh-epoch rewrite goes away. The row it adds now says the history
includes what the older version recorded, not that anything was replaced.

* test(native-chat): pin that a chat founded here keeps its history, and the v1 schema upgrade

A chat this build founded has a pointer and no import marker, so a per-chat
file an older build later starts for it is set aside. Nothing pinned that
half of the rule: letting such a chat be copied again replaced its history
and every test still passed. A second test pins that a database written at
schema version 1 upgrades in place, gaining the set-aside table and keeping
its import markers.

* test(native-chat): drop a lost copied row by patching the source, not wrapping it

* chore(mobile): restore the mobile lockfile to main's

* fix(native-chat): pass a classified journal refusal through a send or Stop unchanged

* fix(native-chat): refuse a read whose owed copy fails as a failed open does

* test(native-chat): measure only the replace's WAL in the block-key case

Opening the chats starts a free-page pass that waits one event-loop turn,
and the seed never yields one, so that pass was still pending when the
replace committed. It woke during the async stat and reclaimed the pages
the replace freed, adding ~500 KB of WAL whenever the stat lost the race
(Linux CI). Drain that pass before measuring and stub the replace's own.

* test(native-chat): the RPC fixture's status journal can save its listing status

The status feed now hands every projection to the journal, which decides whether it is worth saving.

* test(native-chat): state why the RPC fixture's status journal cast is safe

* fix(native-chat): refuse a per-chat copy whose rows differ from the file, not only its counts

* fix(bench): build the replay benchmark's baseline arm from the base tree and release its handles on failure

* fix(native-chat): retry a failed listing status save on the next read of a cached status

* refactor(native-chat): drop the chat journal owner lock; the process instance lock already guards the profile

The journal carried its own exclusive lock, with a retry loop, an in-process
takeover, lock-gated runtime discovery and a "chats are open in another Orca"
refusal. Every shipped process kind (packaged desktop, serve mode, orcad)
already refuses a second instance on one profile before the journal opens, so
the lock only ever mattered for dev desktops, which the next commit covers at
the process level instead.

The host now opens its one journal connection at install with no lock. What a
sole process whose journal will not open needs stays: the install refusal
recorded for the gate, the no-host startup path, and the unverifiable chat
inventory, now in structured-agent-session-host-refusal.ts. The unreleased
journalOwnedElsewhere reason, its processKind fact and their copy are removed.

* fix(startup): dev desktops take the single-instance lock, and a second one says why it quit

Dev skipped Electron's single-instance lock so parallel `pnpm dev` runs from
several worktrees would not quit silently, but two dev processes on the
default orca-dev profile then write the same stores at once. Dev now takes
the lock like packaged builds: a second launch on the same profile focuses
the first window and exits with code 3, printing one stderr line that names
the taken profile and how to run another copy (ORCA_DEV_USER_DATA_PATH).

Serve mode, the macOS diagnostic bypass and the E2E harness are unchanged:
an E2E launch still skips the lock unless it sets
ORCA_E2E_ENFORCE_SINGLE_INSTANCE_LOCK=1.

* refactor(native-chat): key journal rows by chat, epoch and sequence

Rows in the host's journal database are now addressed by the chat's own
identity, with `(session_id, epoch, seq)` as the primary key, the same
shape each per-chat file already used. The block-keyed layout goes with
everything built on it: the block column and its allocator, the 2^21
block ceiling, and the import's reserved block table.

A first-use copy writes its rows under the file's epoch, which the chat's
pointer does not name until the verified copy publishes it, so no reader
sees a half-copied chat. A try that stopped midway leaves only rows no
pointer names, and the next try deletes them before it copies again.
Replace, rollover and repair delete by (chat, epoch).

This build's history always wins: once a chat was copied or founded here,
any per-chat file that reappears is set aside, and the same-epoch copy
again after a downgrade is removed.

The bounded free-page reclaim after every delete is dropped;
`auto_vacuum = INCREMENTAL` stays at file creation, so a later periodic
reclaim can still be added. Session search keeps its own step.

The schema moves to version 3. Versions 1 and 2 were written only by
unreleased builds of this change and are refused as found, not migrated.

* fix(native-chat): open a chat journal a newer Orca wrote read-only instead of refusing it

After a downgrade, the host's journal database carries a newer user_version. It was refused
outright, so every chat's history disappeared. It now opens on a read-only connection, as the
per-chat journals did: each chat shows what this build can read, from the database or a per-chat
file never copied in, and every write is refused with "Chats were saved by a newer Orca. Update
Orca to keep using them." Nothing is written, copied, repaired or founded, and the file stays
byte-identical. A table the newer schema changed reads as the same read-only refusal, not damage.

* refactor(native-chat): leave the saved listing status to the change that reads it

Nothing in this change reads the per-chat listing status column: it was a stored copy of a fact
the status feed derives, written after every turn end and cleared on every epoch change. The
status_json / status_seq columns, their writer, the saved-status type, the status feed's save and
its retry on a cached projection all go, with their tests. The change that lists chats from a
saved status adds the column back beside its reader.

* fix(native-chat): a chat saved by a newer Orca says to update Orca, not to try again

When a newer Orca wrote the chat journal, this build opens it read-only. A send or a Stop was
refused with the reason `journalUnavailable`, so today's desktop and phone clients chose the
words for an open that can clear: "Orca couldn't open this chat's history right now. Try again."
Retrying never cleared it; only updating Orca does.

The refusal now names its own reason, `journalWrittenByNewerOrca`, whose words are "Chats were
saved by a newer Orca. Update Orca to keep using them." A read refused the same way names it
too. An older client does not know the reason, drops it, and falls back to the code's words
("Orca couldn't read this chat's saved history."), and released clients still print the message.

* fix(native-chat): a chat journal from an unreleased build reads as unusable, not as retryable

A chat journal database stamped with schema 1 or 2 was written only by unreleased development
builds of this change. Opening it threw a plain error, which every chat reported as "Orca couldn't
open this chat's history right now. Try again." Retrying never cleared it.

It now throws a named error that is classified as unusable, so every chat says "Unable to load
this chat." The one log line names the file, says an unreleased development build wrote it, and
says to move it aside. Nothing migrates or renames it.

* docs(native-chat): drop the second-Orca-owns-the-chats case from three comments

The chat-only owner lock is gone, so only a chat journal that will not open leaves a runtime
unable to list its chats.

* docs(native-chat): correct three chat-journal comments the redesign left behind

A per-chat file left without its WAL is set aside, not copied again; nothing runs an incremental
vacuum yet, so the auto_vacuum mode is kept for a later pass; and the idle sweep drops a chat's
in-memory fold, since a chat holds no journal connection.

* refactor(native-chat): stop exporting chat-journal names nothing imports

Each is used only inside its own module now; the teardown's export served a deleted test.

* test(native-chat): name the version-0 test for what it covers, and check every journal table

The test named 'migrates an older user_version forward' covers only a version-0 file that already
has its tables; versions 1 and 2 are refused. The table test now also checks journal_imports and
journal_set_aside.

* fix(startup): a second dev launch's exit line no longer claims it focused a window

The running dev instance may be a background launch or a server, which show no window. The line
now says only that this launch passed its request to that instance.

* fix(native-chat): a failed structured-chat install closes the journal connection it opened

The install opened the chat journal database and closed it only if the record store then failed
to open. A later failure, such as the model catalog wiring or the host constructor, left the
connection open, and the next install opened a second one in the same process. Every failure
after the open now closes it.

Brennan Benson 18327d9665 fix(claude): a queued message Claude withdrew is settled from Claude's own cancelled event (#23862)
* fix(claude): settle a queued send the CLI withdrew from its own cancelled frame

Claude reports each uuid-stamped command's lifecycle (queued, started,
completed, cancelled). A send it withdraws from its queue gets `cancelled`
before the interrupt or cancel_async_message answer, so a lost or failed
answer no longer leaves that send pending: it settles as withdrawn, with the
same reason and words as the receipt path.

A command the CLI already started also ends `cancelled` when its turn is
interrupted or fails, so `cancelled` after `started` is not a withdrawal;
an echoed send has left the waiter lists and is never reached.

Tests replay real 2.1.280 captures, scrubbed.

* fix(claude): release a doubted send when the CLI reports its session idle

A Claude send whose write ended in doubt is recorded `unknown`, and a live
`unknown` reads as work still owed, so the chat showed Working until the
child exited. Claude sends `session_state_changed idle` only once its whole
queue has drained, so it can no longer be holding that send. The runtime now
routes that report to the host's existing release, the same one Codex's
thread-stopped report uses; it retires `unknown` only, never `pending`.

* fix(claude): keep a command's started mark when a redelivery re-emits queued; fixtures name msg_lifecycle_v1

Brennan Benson c5330d0d52 fix(native-chat): stop killing processes that only inherited a chat's spawn tag (#23460)
* fix(native-chat): stop signalling processes that only inherited a spawn token

A spawn token is an environment variable, so every descendant of a provider child
carries it. The Linux-only startup scan treated any carrier no lease claimed as a lost
provider child and sent it SIGTERM, which also hit editors, tmux servers and nested
Orca processes the agent had started. Remove that scan's killing consumer; the token
scan stays for the reservation probe, and recorded owners are still stopped by
identity during recovery.

* fix(codex): remove the token-scan kill path from app-server teardown

Every descendant inherits the spawn token, so killing each pid that carries it can
reach processes the agent started that are not the provider. Production never
injected this path; teardown always uses the process-group and descendant-snapshot
proof. Drop it, its deps, and the now-unused spawn-token argument.

Brennan Benson 153d3fd3fa feat(native-chat): Codex sessions write their subagents into the host status store (#22553)
* refactor(native-chat): the Codex acquire names its turn-boundary methods as a set

Behavior-neutral: the same two methods stamp receipt time. Keeps the file
under the size limit once the child-work sink lands.

* feat(native-chat): Codex sessions write their subagents into the host status store

A Codex child thread and each persistent command become host child records,
fed through the same delivery, ingest and reducer the Claude lane uses. The
child's own turn decides it: turn start is live, turn completion settles it
with the outcome Codex reports, and a follow-up turn reopens the same record
as a new run. Its open tool call, last message, usage and waiting-on-user flag
come from its own thread's frames. A parent turn ending settles nothing.

* fix(native-chat): close a Codex child's tool call by its item id alone

A completion frame need not restate the tool it ran, so reading the tool name
before closing left the call open and the record naming a finished tool.

* test(native-chat): pin the Codex child-work evidence and every hop to the host's records

Child turn start/end/follow-up, open tool call, last message, usage, waiting,
the persistent command a child owns and its monitoring display, a primary
turn end settling nothing, and session end. End to end through the real
adapter: evidence after the journal and the legacy republish, and the parent
state the records imply equals today's at every frame of a scripted session.
Through the production runtime: a Codex session's child work reaches the
status sink under its own address, and a provider exit ends it there.

* test(native-chat): a Codex child's new run never inherits the last run's open call

* test(native-chat): a Codex session with no child-work sink holds no evidence

* test(native-chat): deliver a Codex child's announcement twice, as Codex does, before counting edges

* refactor(native-chat): hand the Codex producer's pending edge over directly

* fix(native-chat): name every Codex turn state in the outcome map; type the runtime test's fake opener

* fix(native-chat): a Codex child's turn ends on the error that ends it, or on its thread closing

Codex can end a child's turn with no turn/completed: an error it will not
retry is that turn's own end (the verdict the transcript already settles the
same turn on), and a closed thread ran its last turn. The executions, the one
owner of child turn state, now end the turn on both, so the strip drops the
child and its record settles (failed, or unknown for a close) together,
instead of reading working for the life of the session. A systemError status
is not an ending: Codex raises it for errors that leave the turn running.

A child fact whose frame names no turn now belongs to the turn the child is
running, instead of counting for every run.

* test(native-chat): a Codex child's turn ending by fatal error or thread close settles strip and record together

* test(native-chat): the Codex parity script reads a waiting child through the shared fold's waiting arm

* test(native-chat): a Codex child row's journal attempt is its record's generation

The journal numbers a Codex child's runs by the turns it observed on the
child's thread; the host record numbers them by the runs its evidence
opened. Both are keyed by the child's own turn id, so they must agree run for
run, including when Codex reports the child's first turn before the spawn
that announces it.

* test(native-chat): a Codex session's end settles its live children and keeps the ended ones

The host no longer erases a session's children when its provider goes away: a
child still running settles with an outcome nobody reported, and a child that
had already ended keeps what it said. The producer tests now expect exactly
that, from the close path and from an unexpected exit.

* fix(native-chat): a Codex subagent's shell is its open tool until the process exits

Codex runs every agent shell through unified exec, so every subagent shell
arrives with the source the persistent-command tracker keys on. The producer
skipped those items, so a working subagent never named its shell, and an
approved command (started on the approval path, completed from unified exec)
stayed its open tool until the turn ended. The tracker still records the
process separately, so a command that outlives the turn reads as monitoring.

* fix(native-chat): a Codex shell becomes a subagent's own work only once it outlives its turn

Codex runs every agent shell through unified exec and never says when one is
left running, so the producer turned every shell, even a millisecond `rg`, into
a command record the moment it started. Each settled into the session's pool
of 32 settled records, so a busy turn evicted a finished subagent's record
(its outcome row would vanish) and listed dozens of finished shells beside it.

A command now becomes a record at the first turn boundary of the thread that
launched it while its process still runs: until then it is the agent's open
call. A shell that exits within its turn never becomes a record.

* refactor(native-chat): child records keep every settled child and can be removed outright

Settled child records now stay until the host drops the session's row; the
32-record trim is gone. A producer can say work stopped with nothing to
report, and its record (and the handles it answered to) goes instead of
settling. Evidence stays host-internal: the producer and the store share
one process.

* fix(native-chat): a Codex command is live work from its start until its process stops

The command tracker is now the one owner of a Codex command's lifetime. It
admits every command whatever `source` Codex tags it with (the approval
path starts one as `agent`), and ends it when its process exits, when its
thread closes (Codex stops the processes first, so no exit ever arrives),
or when the session ends. The producer mirrors that one-to-one: a live
record from the start, removed when the command stops, never settled.

This removes the turn-boundary rule: a command that was only recorded at
its turn's end left the parent reading done for one publish when the main
agent's turn ended with a shell still running. The parity script now
checks the parent at every journal write, not only at frame end.

* fix(native-chat): a Codex command whose approval its turn abandoned never ran

Codex starts an approval's command item before it asks, and when the turn
ends with the question unanswered (the user stops at the approval), it drops
the question and never completes the item. The command tracker admitted that
start as a running process, so the strip kept a phantom command row and the
session row read working until the session ended.

The prompt registry, which owns which approvals are still unanswered, reports
the command approvals a turn ended without; the tracker ends those commands
with the frame that ended the turn. An answered approval keeps its command.

* test(native-chat): start the Codex child-work runtime test without the removed hold

Main no longer has host.hold: creating the session starts its child, and
nothing a viewer does keeps it running. The test attaches and asserts the

Brennan BensonandClaude 7a24d3d335 fix(native-chat): the conversation outlives its agent (#22835)
* refactor(native-chat): remove the unused terminal handoff

No client ever called agentSession.requestHandoff or mounted the handoff
chrome. Delete the handoff coordinator, the terminal-owner runtime, the
proof write path and the unmounted UI. Keep agentSession.handoffStatus,
which released desktop clients read for worktree activation, and let
records an older build left mid handoff reconcile through the ordinary
restart and recovery paths.

* fix(native-chat): never let the pre-stop snapshot hold a chat's stop

Eviction now drains delivered events before quit's resume-offer snapshot. An
unbounded wait there sits ahead of the provider stop, so a sink whose journal
write stalls kept the child running until the step deadline aborted the
eviction. The offer is advisory: bound the drain and stop the child regardless.

* refactor(native-chat): drop helpers only the terminal handoff called

`claudeAuthEnvCarriedForward`, `isPathWithinDirectory` and
`queryWindowsProcessRowsFresh` lost their last caller with the handoff. The
fresh-scan tests now go through `queryWindowsProcessDescendants({ fresh: true })`,
the teardown path that still depends on that contract.

* docs(native-chat): stop citing the removed handoff in lifecycle comments

Six comments still named the handoff coordinator, a handoff suspend, or a
terminal-owned session as live participants in the flows they describe.

* test(native-chat): type the stalled snapshot drain without a cast

* test(native-chat): pin that a start dead before proving owes no settlement

The removed restart handoff test pinned this branch; nothing else did.

* fix(native-chat): keep the owner-status read behind an in-flight attach

The handoff removal dropped the per-session queue from `handoffStatus`, so a
read landing mid-start reported the reservation (no owner) instead of the
settled chat owner, and shipped desktop clients blocked worktree activation on
it. The read is queued again, as it was before the removal.

* refactor(terminal): remove the agent-session PTY write gate

The gate only refused a write when a PTY had been bound to a chat session, and the
only code that ever bound one was the terminal handoff this branch removes. With it
gone, every admit/readmit returned "admitted" unconditionally, so the checks on the
renderer write path, the runtime controller backstop, terminal.send, agent prompts,
preview input and orchestration pointers, the refusal fields on terminal.send and
worker-start receipts, the plugin and CLI refusal copy, and the adopted-pane
orchestration routing could no longer run. Ordinary writes take the same path in
the same order as before.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the transcript helpers only the handoff called

appendLegacyTranscriptMessages fed the terminal transcript catch-up and
proveClaudeTranscriptBranch backed the terminal owner's exit proof. Both lost
their last caller with the handoff. Their tests now go through the live entry
points instead: the roster bounds through the legacy import, the pinned-read and
growth tests through the ancestry replay the history window uses, and the marker
rules through the string proof in their own file rather than the session-file
resolver's.

* fix(native-chat): stop calling a starting chat "mid-handoff"

A send refused because the chat's owner is not settled showed "The session is
mid-handoff (<stage>)." in the composer. With the handoff gone, the stages that
reach it are a chat that is still starting, or one whose previous agent process
has not yet been confirmed stopped. The message now says which of the two it is.
The refusal code is unchanged.

* test(native-chat): type the stand-in roster decoder without a cast

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(codex): name the pinned rollout lookup for what it does

With the terminal handoff gone, the module named codex-tui-rollout-proof holds
only the pinned rollout lookup that structured Codex launches use to resume a
thread, so the name described code that no longer exists. Rename the module and
its options type. Also drop a mobile allowlist assertion that pinned the
removed agentSession.requestHandoff method, which no longer exists to allow.

* refactor(native-chat): type the owner-status reply as the host sends it

The handoffStatus reply type still listed the terminal handoff's fields and
states (terminal placement, host label, proof retry, queued and waiting phases,
the to-terminal direction). No host writes them any more and the only client
reader parses the reply as unknown, so they described nothing. The reply on the
wire is unchanged.

* refactor(native-chat): normalize terminal-handoff lease values once at decode

Nothing in this build writes a terminal owner (`runtimeKind: 'tui'`) or the
handoff's `preparing` / `old-owner-stopped` stages, but the in-memory types
still admitted them, so readers across the host kept branches for values no
path produces and the compiler could not point at them.

The store now validates the on-disk shape, which still accepts those values so
an older record is not quarantined, and maps them once while parsing:

- `preparing` and `old-owner-stopped` become `recovering`
- a `tui` lease becomes `native`; when it records a process it also becomes
  `conflicted`, the claim every build probes but never stops. A plain native
  owner would be stopped by restart recovery, here and in older builds.

Revisions are taken over the normalized state on both sides of every compare,
and the mapped record reaches disk with the store's first transaction, the
same way the tab-id backfill does.

The in-memory types narrow to what this build writes, and the branches that
existed only for the removed values go. Structured-worker identity keeps its
verdict for a former terminal owner by refusing a conflicted claim rather
than a non-native kind.

* refactor(native-chat): stop threading the owner kind through a reservation

A reservation only ever names a native owner now, so the request no longer
carries a kind and the reserved lease records `native` directly. The attach
params keep `runtimeKind`: agentSession.ensure and create accept it, and the
operation fingerprint stored in the ledger covers it.

* test(native-chat): pin the legacy-lease rewrite with a transaction that changes nothing else

Hiding a tab also committed the visibility index, so the no-op transaction
wrote the file even when its open-time revision was wrong. Committing the index
first leaves the pending rewrite as the only reason to write.

* fix(native-chat): name a chat write by its target, not the owner generation

A write carried the fence of the last frame the pane read, and the host refused it
unless that fence was still current. An idle release and the restart after it each
move the fence, and the release publishes nothing, so a send after a release was
refused "Expected runtime fence 1; the session is at 3", and a Stop queued behind a
cold start was refused as stale.

Every write already names what it acts on: a send its conversation, a cancel its
turn, a prompt answer its item revision, a rewind its epoch; an option is
last-writer-wins. So admission stops comparing the client's fence, and the rebase
that papered over one restart (admitAtResumedFence, resumedFromFence) goes with it.
The writer-lease check stays, and so does the attach's compare-and-swap.

Frames now stamp the fence read when each frame is sent instead of a copy each
subscriber kept, which went stale on the same release.

* fix(native-chat): every journal append reaches the chats that are open

A journal write and its delivery to open readers were two calls, and some
writers made only the first. A failed start whose lease could not be handed
back, a provider revision with no frame behind it, and eviction's settlement
were all journaled without reaching an open chat.

A journal handle now reports every durable change, and the host's session map
binds that report to the session's readers when the handle is set. Writers no
longer publish what they append; the per-writer publish calls are deleted.

* test(native-chat): an epoch replacement reaches the open chat

* test(native-chat): each row reaches an open chat once, and a live handle enters only through the map

* test(native-chat): give the legacy-lease store test a tab id so the backfill cannot supply its rewrite

The seeded record had no surface tab id, so the next open backfilled one and
that rewrite alone made the no-op transaction write. The test passed with the
legacy-lease rewrite signal removed.

* test(worktree-activation): restore the OMP surfaced-agent resume test

The handoff removal deleted it alongside the terminal-owner tests, but it
covers the surfaced-PTY block that still guards resume, including an agent
whose ownership is unknown.

* perf(native-chat): a publish behind a delivered commit reads nothing

Each commit now delivers itself, so the publish a provider frame still sends
afterwards found every reader caught up but still read rows and rebuilt the
timeline for each one. A caught-up reader now skips the read.

* test(native-chat): state why the teardown test's fake journal is safe to cast

* docs(native-chat): say mutation admission checks only the writer lease

* docs(native-chat): drop the send rebase from comments that still described it

* fix(native-chat): a message is accepted, then delivered

A send to a chat with no running agent restarted the agent inside the send
call, before the message was recorded, so the client waited for the whole
start and a failed restart refused the message. Claude held prompts sent
during startup, and those could settle as "unconfirmed".

A send is now accepted inside the session's serialized queue: one ledger row
and one submission row marked handoverRecorded, published, answered pending.
A per-session delivery loop exists while a message is queued. It starts the
agent through the same serialized attach a hold uses, waits outside the queue
for a Claude child to prove its start, and hands the oldest queued message
over as its own serialized step, writing dispatch{pending} before the adapter
call. A start it needed and did not get writes one error-tone row and rejects
every queued message with the same words; a start Stop cancelled writes none.

Settlement follows from the rows. A queued message is provably unwritten, so a
close, an eviction or an exit rejects it. A handed-over message stays in doubt.
A queued row at or below the sequence a handle found when it opened was left
by an earlier process and is rejected at open, with no latch. Stop withdraws
queued messages with no writer lease and no fence. An attach failure keeps the
conversation open, and the attach adopts its journal. Owed work counts the
loop and queued rows.

A compaction or rewind found prepared when a conversation opens was started
under a child this process no longer has, so the open settles it rather than
leaving it to refuse every send until a view attaches. The open cursor is
scoped to its epoch, because sequences restart when an epoch is replaced.

Deleted: restart-before-admission, recordFailedRestart, the fence rebase,
Claude's startup gate, the attach's forget on failure and its own crash
boundary. Clients without agent-session.accepted-send.v1 get their reply held
until the handover; the desktop and paired desktop lists advertise it.

* fix(native-chat): settle queued messages only for the child that ended

A child that proved its start and then exited before its message was handed
over left the message queued: the exit settlement returned early when nothing
else was in flight. Delivery then started another child for it, and a child
that died the same way started another, without end and without a row.

A retried settlement for an earlier generation, run by the attach that
delivery started, did the opposite: with that generation's turn unfinished it
rejected the message queued for the child being attached.

The settlement now takes the rejection for queued messages from its caller.
The unexpected exit and the eviction pass one, and it applies even with no
other work in flight; the retry for an earlier generation passes none.

* fix(native-chat): an adoption that fails to import keeps the conversation open

The attach now writes into the conversation's own open journal, but a failed
transcript import still closed it as if it were the attach's provisional one.
The conversation stayed indexed with a closed journal, so every later send
answered "could not be recorded" and every attach failed again until the app
restarted. The import now closes only a journal the attach opened for itself.

* perf(native-chat): the recovering open reads the journal once

Every conversation open now goes through the recovering open, including the
read restore of every chat at startup, which used to replay its journal once.
The recovering open replayed it twice: once to probe it and again inside the
open. The probe is now handed to the open as its load.

* fix(native-chat): an attach that fails after indexing its child leaves no child behind

A failed attach now keeps the conversation open, but a failure after
`onAttached` indexed the child (the rewind or compaction recovery, or the
attach's own success record) left that entry claiming a child the failure
path had already released. The next send found the phantom, skipped the start,
and wrote at a fence the journal had moved past, so the message stayed queued
for good. The entry now drops the released child and its event sink, and
follows the record's fence, as a failure before indexing already did.

* fix(native-chat): a withdrawn message shows no error, and a rejection outlasts the send's answer

The error strip for a message the host accepted and then did not deliver matched the entry before
the outbox reconciled, so a Stop's withdrawal, which the reconcile drops, showed "Orca could not
send your message" with nothing to retry. It now reads the reconciled entry.

A rejection the journal records before the send's own pending answer lands is final as well:
that answer no longer puts the entry back to dispatching with no Retry.

* fix(orchestration): a structured worker whose agent outlasts the preamble wait is left unknown, not torn down

The preamble waits for its submission to be delivered while the worker's agent starts. When that
wait ran out it threw operation_unknown, and the failed-start teardown then closed the session,
which rejected the very preamble the host was about to deliver. It now reports a turn start
nobody observed yet: the worker is start-unknown with its session kept, the host delivers the
preamble when the agent starts, and the worker's report settles the dispatch as for any
unobserved start. The receipt no longer suggests reading a screen a structured worker lacks.

* fix(native-chat): a message rejected while its chat was closed reads as not sent

A remount reads an entry it left dispatching as unconfirmed. When the journal had rejected it
meanwhile, as a failed start or a quit now does, the reconcile left it unconfirmed: it blocked
every later message behind a Retry and no reason, and the delivery probe, seeing the journal
already answered, never ran. The reconcile now settles it as rejected like a dispatching one.

* test(orchestration): name why the readiness settlement fakes are cast

* fix(native-chat): keep each pane's own fence on frames so a failed restart is not resent

* docs(native-chat): drop the fence from the admission the send effects run behind

* docs(native-chat): give the fence move on release the reason that still holds

* docs(native-chat): stop citing a write fence check in launch and mailbox comments

Three places still gave the removed fence check as a reason: the launch replay said admission puts the ledger ahead of the fence, the launch surface said a send must name the lease it was admitted against, and the direct-mailbox path said the lease fence decides whether delivery is safe. Admission now checks only the writer lease.

* refactor(native-chat): the provider child is its own record

A conversation now outlives any number of provider children, so the child is one record on the
conversation's entry instead of five loose fields beside its journal. It is written in one place:
indexed only once an attach has fully succeeded, and ended through one function that an exit, a
failed re-attach, a Stop and an eviction all share, matched on the child's generation and fence.

- A failed attach writes no child, so there is nothing to unwind: the field unwind and the fence
  patch after it are gone.
- Conversation writes read the record's fence, the way mutation admission already does; a child's
  own writes use its fence. The four stored-fence patches, and the settlement retry's overwrite of
  the conversation's fence, are gone.
- The owed wind-down is its own tombstone, carrying the child it is owed for, and is no longer
  dropped when an attach replaced the whole entry.
- Stop on a child still proving its start stops only the child: its lease goes back and the chat
  is told it is idle, but the journal, the holders and the readers stay. Close is that stop plus
  the conversation's close.
- The settlement retry uses the conversation's own journal, opened through the host's one open.

* fix(native-chat): the delivery loop alone settles a message its start or child failed

A queued message was settled by whichever path happened to end the child first: the loop, the
unexpected exit, eviction's work settlement, the open's leftover rule, and the startup branch that
rejected every pending row. That gave two failure rows with different tones for one start, a loop
that could hand over to a different child than the one it waited on, and a Claude start that died
while starting reading unlike every other failed start.

- The loop remembers the child it waited on. At handover, if that child is gone or replaced, it
  reads how it ended: a Stop continues; anything else writes one failure row and rejects every
  queued message with the same words, then stops. A child still starting whose start the adapter
  says did not land fails the same way. The exit, eviction and the settlement retry only settle
  the handed-over and legacy rows of the child that ended.
- One failure row, always an error, keyed by the start. A start a view began that dies with
  nothing queued writes the same row through the same builder, so a second report revises it.
- The open no longer rejects leftovers; the loop's first step does, and the open wakes it.
- `awaitStarted` answers why a start did not land, so the row says it even when the loop sees the
  failure before the exit is processed.
- Quit closes every conversation the way closing a chat does: what is still queued is rejected as
  closed, with or without a child, and a start the loop already has in flight is waited for so the
  child it produces is stopped rather than left behind.

* refactor(native-chat): a stopped child ends on the one reading of its stop

The eviction step reads a stop's result through `stopAgentSessionProviderRoot` and hands that
verdict to the child's ending, so the host never forms a second view of whether the root is gone.
Every ending carries it: a stop's comes from that reading, an exit's root is gone by definition,
and a failed re-attach passes what its release saw. The end-of-child record can therefore also
carry a stop whose root was not seen to go, which nothing ends on yet.

* feat(native-chat): the host says it accepts a send before any agent has it

The host now lists agent-session.accepted-send.v1 among its own runtime capabilities, the same
string capable clients already send. A client can then tell a host that answers a send at
acceptance, and admits a Stop with no writer before a turn starts, from an older one that still
restarts the agent inside the send. Additive: an older client ignores a capability it does not
know.

* refactor(native-chat): an attach never opens a journal of its own

The attach adopts the conversation's open journal, which outlives it, so it no longer opens one
for a direct caller either. That leaves nothing for a failed adopted import to close, and the flag
that told the two cases apart is gone. Tests that attach without a host open the conversation the
way a host does.

* fix(native-chat): a moved fence resends nothing on a host that accepts first

The outbox treated any fence change as a new owner: it dropped the answer of a send in flight,
queued that send to go out again under the same id, and unblocked a refused head. On an older
host that is how a send the restart refused, unrecorded, gets another try. On a host that records
every send before it starts an agent, a fence moves because that start ran, so the same rule
resent into every failed start. With a fence stamped on every frame, that became a loop.

The outbox now reacts to a fence change only when the host has not advertised that it accepts a
send before any agent has it. On such a host, only a Retry or a new send goes out, and a failed
start reaches the client as a rejected message it keeps with its Retry. Against an older host, or
before one has answered, the outbox behaves as it did. Desktop and paired web share this hook.

* refactor(native-chat): a child's end says whether the user or the host stopped it

The end-of-child record's cause now tells a user's Stop from the host stopping the child for a
cause of its own: `user-stop` and `host-stop` replace `stop`. The delivery loop goes on after a
user's Stop, as before, and fails the start it was waiting on after a host stop, with the one
error row and every queued message rejected, in the stop's reason when it gave one. The reason
stays description only. Stop passes `user-stop`; nothing passes `host-stop` yet.

* fix(native-chat): a chat whose only work is a queued message is not offered for resume

A message accepted while the agent was starting counts as working in the chat, and quit rejects it
as never sent. The teardown snapshot read the same working rule, so a relaunch offered to resume a
chat whose agent never had the message. The snapshot now reads only what was handed over.

* fix(native-chat): the conversation outlives its agent

Opening a chat no longer starts its agent. A conversation is reached through one host
accessor that opens its journal at rest, and a send is what starts the agent, through
the delivery loop. One idle sweep, every five minutes, stops an agent that has been
quiet for thirty minutes and owes no work, then drops an open journal handle that is
only a cache. Its record, tab, status row and readers stay.

- hold and release are no-ops; hold still builds the host for shipped mobile builds.
- The holders, the holds, the release clock and the exit respawn are deleted.
- Options, the model list, the goal and the context meter answer at rest; a model pick
  at rest is recorded as intent for the next start.
- Compact, rewind, clear and goal changes start the agent first. A send does too when
  a rewind is still in doubt after the conversation opens.
- Orchestration routes mail and group addresses on ownership (the record plus the chat
  tab), not on whether the process runs. An open dispatch keeps its worker running.
- The restart continuation is a send; Resume all holds each slot until the message is
  handed over or rejected.
- A read error never replaces a loaded transcript, and shows the host's own words.

* test(native-chat): type the queued-message fixtures in the resume-offer tests

* fix(native-chat): a start that dies while a message waits on it is that message's failed start

Opening a chat's tab starts an agent for the view, and a send accepted meanwhile waits on it. When
that start died, its exit wrote the start's error row and left the message queued, so the delivery
loop started a second agent into the same failure and wrote a second row. A child's end now records
where the conversation's journal stood, and the loop settles a message accepted before a failed
start ended with that start: one row, under its key, and no second start. A message sent after the
failure still gets a fresh start.

* docs(native-chat): say what an attach's open conversation and unconfirmed ids are now

* test(native-chat): pin what a failed start settles, and what a resume offer names

A view's child that dies while a sent message waits settles that message only when it died starting
and no child has taken its place: a proven child's crash, or a second start since, gets the message
delivered. The resume offer names the handed-over message, never a newer one still queued.

* test(native-chat): the failed-start pins fail on what the message became, not on a timeout

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer ends when the chat's agent starts again

The offer used to end only when the chat's newest user message changed,
because opening a chat started its agent and that start could not be told
apart from real activity. Opening a chat starts nothing now, so the host
reads the fact it already publishes: a chat's status row goes from not
host-owned to host-owned exactly when its agent is started. At that edge the
offer and any failure record for the chat are withdrawn, unless the start is
a resume action's own (its continuation is the oldest undelivered message).

A continuation and a message racing to be first are decided at acceptance:
the continuation is refused, quietly and with nothing filed, when any other
message was accepted since the restart. A failed continuation start leaves
the offer retryable, and each resume action sends its own message id.

Deleted: the newest-user-message comparison, its journal reader, the
continuation filter, and the failure ledger's own "answered by the chat"
check. The marker still carries its message id for one release, so the
previous build can read it.

* fix(runtime): end a transcript stream when its client unsubscribes

Desktop: the IPC subscription controller was dropped as soon as the streaming
handler returned, which for most streams is right after it binds. A later
runtime:unsubscribe then found nothing to abort, so the host kept the subscriber
and derived and sent every publish to a channel no one listened to. The controller
now lives until the renderer unsubscribes, resubscribes the same id, or goes away.

Mobile: disposing an agentSession.subscribe stream now sends agentSession.unsubscribe
with the stream's frame id, so the host ends that subscriber and leaves a sibling
stream on the same socket running. The direct path now passes the frame id the relay
path already passed.

* test(orchestration): the preamble's host stub is typed, not cast

The preamble send now takes only what it reads of the host, the send, the settlement wait and the
record's fence, so its test builds that host with real types instead of `as never`.

* fix(native-chat): one fact ends a restart offer: the chat moved on since the restart

The offer is live while no other message has been accepted in the chat since the
restart and its agent has not proved a start since. The offer list, the resume's
reservation check and the continuation's acceptance check all read that one fact,
so a message whose start then failed withdraws the offer too, and a stale click
finds nothing to act on.

The fact is read off the conversation's open handle, which the restart closed, so
it is retired durably whenever it may have changed: a message accepted, a start
proven. A close and reopen within the same run therefore cannot bring the offer
back. A continuation rejected before it reached the agent does not count, so a
retry after a failed start still runs.

Deleted: the quit-time gate on withdrawal, which changed nothing because the
withdrawal and the quit's own offer write share one queue; the per-action
"withdrawn" flag and the separate acceptance check it paired with.

* test(native-chat): an older build reads the restart offer this build records

The offer lives in a file the previous release reads after a downgrade. Pin that
against the pinned release's own capsule, and run the lane when the marker or the
capsule changes.

* fix(native-chat): read a restart offer against where the journal stood when it was taken

"Since the restart" was read off the conversation's open handle, which the idle
sweep closes: after a reopen, a message the user had already sent looked older
than the handle and the withdrawn offer came back.

The offer now records the journal position (epoch and sequence) at the moment
it is taken, and a message accepted after that position, or a journal on another
epoch, means the chat moved on. That is derived from the journal, so it holds
across any number of closes and reopens. An older build's offer has no position;
only a start withdraws it. Because the message half is now durable, the offer is
no longer rewritten in the recovery file on every accepted message; a proven
start still writes it, since only the host that saw the start knows of it.

* test(native-chat): wait for the listing's retire write before reading the recovery file

* fix(native-chat): keep the terminal-backed chat's read error over its local echoes

Messages winning over a read error is right for the structured chat, whose read retries and whose
messages came from the transcript. The terminal-backed view assembles its list from local echoes
too (a launch prompt, a pending send), so a failed read there showed only those bubbles and no
error. Only the structured pane now keeps messages over an error.

* fix(native-chat): a start retries the exit settlement a failed journal write left owed

An agent exit whose journal settlement write failed releases the lease latched until a retry lands.
Reopening the chat used to be that retry; with reveal now only opening the journal, nothing retried
it before the next app launch, and every send was refused. The start the send needs now runs the
retry first, where the attach would.

* perf(native-chat): answer the owner check without opening the chat

Worktree activation calls agentSession.handoffStatus for every chat tab in the worktree, and the
answer comes from the session record alone. Reaching it through the accessor opened each resting
chat's journal (a full read, the crash-boundary write and a restored status publish), then kept it
open for the idle window. It now checks the record and the adapter's support, as before this series,
and opens nothing.

* fix(native-chat): a read waiting on the session lock opens nothing once quit began

The accessor checked for quit before queueing the open, so a read queued behind a session task ran
its open after teardown had begun and indexed a journal no teardown step would close. The check now
runs at the open itself.

* fix(native-chat): read a failed resume's chat before calling it retryable

Whether a failed resume is retryable is the offer's own rule: the chat has not moved on since the
restart, read from its journal. The failure list read it only for a chat already open, so once the
idle sweep closed a chat the user had moved on in, its failure showed Retry again, and the click did
nothing. The list now opens the failed chats first, as the offer list does.

* test(native-chat): type the provider event sink the settlement test reaches for

* fix(native-chat): say the structured read keeps trying only where it does

The structured pane's "Orca keeps trying to load it" line never showed: the view state filled in an
untranslated fallback whenever the read error had no text, and the empty state prefers any message.
The view state now leaves the message out, so the structured pane shows that line and the
terminal-backed pane its own translated one. Mobile's structured lane does not resubscribe after an
error frame, so it no longer makes the claim.

* test(native-chat): await the send's settlement instead of polling for the start

The at-rest send tests polled for the provider start with vi.waitFor's one-second default, which a
loaded machine outran. They now await the host's own settlement of the message.

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer resumes any time after the quit, and knows its own continuations

The continuation's message id was dated by the quit, and the ledger refuses a new id dated more than
a day back, so Resume or Retry a day after quitting was always refused (on main too). It is now
dated by the resume action.

Telling a rejected continuation from the user's own message read the operation ledger, whose rows
expire after about a day; after that a failed resume stopped being retryable. The offer now
records the continuation each action sends on its own capsule entry, bounded to the newest 16, so
the ids end with the offer. The ledger read is deleted.

* fix(orchestration): route no mail to a structured worker its orchestration released

A structured worker is routed on ownership, and a resting worker's lease is released, so ownership
held while its chat tab stayed listed. A worker the coordinator abandoned and then released, found
at rest by the release, therefore still took peer mail and @worktree: broadcasts, and each one
restarted its agent. Routing now also reads the orchestration's own resource row: once it is
released, direct mail, group addressing and worker-show's addressable answer drop the worker, as
they would a terminal worker whose terminal closed. The chat tab stays, and nothing new is stored.

* fix(native-chat): a failed retry names the user's prompt, not Orca's continuation

A resume's continuation is written to the chat before its start, so after a failed attempt the chat's
newest user message is that rejected continuation. A second failure then showed Orca's own restart
text as the chat's prompt. A retry now keeps the prompt its first failure named.

* fix(orchestration): read the released row optionally, as the authority does

worker-show's observation called the row lookup directly, which a runtime double without it threw on
and failed the structured tab-retirement release.

* fix(native-chat): the status bar drops a restart offer the chat moved on from

The renderer re-read the host's restart offer only when a failed chat showed activity, so after a
message withdrew a pending offer the host answered no chats while the status bar kept counting one,
and clicking it opened nothing. The same watch now covers pending offers: a status change in an
offered chat asks the host again, once.

* test(native-chat): a roster of idle or finished children does not keep an agent awake

The sweep reads owed background work through the shared child-work liveness that upstream's
release clock adopted; a child that went idle or finished is not work the agent still owes.

* fix(orchestration): a task dispatched into a resting structured worker keeps it running

The sweep's open-dispatch check read only the worker-start dispatch that owns the worker's terminal
resource, so a task later dispatched to the same worker (orchestration dispatch --to, which writes a
dispatch with no worker row) did not count: after thirty quiet minutes the worker was stopped while
that task was open, and its coordinator read exited. Any unsettled dispatch addressed to the worker's
process incarnation now counts, derived from the existing rows.

* docs(native-chat): comments stop describing the hold this PR removed

Eight comments still justified orderings and teardown choices by a viewer or dispatch hold that
pinned the provider child. Nothing holds any more; the orderings stand for the binding's redrive
subscription and parked mail, and a chat's agent runs from a send until the idle sweep rests it.
Comment-only.

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer keeps the start its own continuation made

Whose start ended an offer was decided at read time, from whether the offer's continuation was
still the queued message. Once the provider refused that continuation, the child it had started
read as someone else's start, so the offer ended and its failure showed no Retry. The delivery
loop now records which queued message a start is for on the in-memory child, and the child's end
carries it; the offer counts a start as its own when that message is one of its continuations.

* fix(native-chat): an agent gets a full idle window after its owed work ends

The sweep measured quiet only from the last journal row, so once a subagent, command, monitor or
dispatch that had outlived the window ended, the agent was stopped at the next tick. A child can
read done before the lead's wake-up turn writes anything, and stopping in that gap loses the
wake-up. The sweep now counts owed work it observes as activity, which gives the agent the full
window afterwards, as the release clock it replaced did.

* test(claude): the options-read fixture runs a live child

The fixture marked its conversation running with a hasProviderChild field the
session type does not have, so the read took the at-rest path and refused a
session with no record. It now carries a child, which is what the read checks.

* test(native-chat): host tests reach its collaborators through a typed seam

The rest-test rig and three test files read the host's private members with
Reflect.get and cast the result. The host now exposes one test-only accessor,
collaboratorsForTests(), and the subscribers class a subscriberCountForTests()
beside its existing retainedActivityCountForTests(), so the tests are checked
against the real types and the casts are gone.

* refactor(orchestration): one owner answers a structured worker's custody

Routing, group addressing, worker-show and the idle sweep each composed their own reading of
whether orchestration still holds a structured worker, so each new obligation or retirement state
had to be added to every reader. structured-worker-custody now derives both answers from the
worker-terminal list state coordinators see in worker-list: addressable is owned and not released,
and owed work is an active custody or an unsettled task dispatched to the same incarnation. The
owner's state is read through the remote dispatch attachment too, as the terminal transfer lookup
already does. Behaviour is unchanged; a settled worker awaiting its coordinator still rests.

* refactor(orchestration): owed work is an open dispatch on the worker's incarnation

A supervised worker's own dispatch context stays open exactly while the worker is active, so the
separate active-custody branch only repeated it. Owed work is now one fact, which also states the
policy that a worker awaiting its coordinator's decision may rest, and both custody decisions are
written once at the top of the module.

* fix(native-chat): a restart offer knows its continuations by a tag in their id

The offer recorded each continuation id in a list on its capsule entry, capped at 16, and a running
action's id in memory. Both could disagree with the journal: past the cap an old rejected
continuation read as the chat moving on, and a crash during a retry restored the failure's older
entry, which lacked the retry's id. Each continuation id now carries a tag derived from the offer
(its teardown and chat), then the action's own part, so any continuation of this offer, queued or
rejected, is recognised from the journal row and the marker alone. The persisted list, its cap and
the in-memory action map are deleted; the agent-start withdrawal keeps an offer whose own
continuation the start was for, read against the stored marker.

* test(runtime): the legacy-worker reveal test judges its stale snapshot inside the wait

The tui-idle probe reads through readTerminal, which now awaits the structured
worker check before the PTY read, so the probe's snapshot request starts a
microtask later. vi.waitFor missed it on its first check and polled again at
50 ms, the same moment the wait's own 50 ms timeout fired. The stale snapshot
then resolved after the wait had already timed out, so the test passed without
judging it, and the rejection landed before any handler was attached. Vitest
reported that as an unhandled error and failed the shard.

Polling every 1 ms sees the request within a few ms, so the snapshot is judged
while the wait is still pending.

* fix(native-chat): a view never restarts a chat whose last start failed

A Claude chat whose CLI exits during startup left one red row per start, and
every time a view bound to it (the chat opening right after its create died,
or the user switching back to it) the hold started the CLI again, so the same
launch-failure row repeated. Only a send retries a failed start now, the same
rule provider-exit recovery already applied; the rule lives in one predicate
the hold, exit recovery and the delivery loop share.

* fix(native-chat): the idle sweep reads owed work every tick

Owed work counted as activity, but the sweep read it only once the idle window had elapsed, so it
refreshed the clock at most once a window. Work that ended just before the next read left the
agent to be stopped at that read, moments after the work ended, which is the gap the refresh was
meant to cover. The sweep now reads owed work on every tick for a started agent, so the window
always runs from the last tick that saw work owed.

* fix(native-chat): a continuation handed to the agent stays sent

The offer read its own continuation as not reaching the agent while its dispatch was pending, which
also covered one already handed over and still unanswered. When the wait for that answer ended first,
the failure it filed read as retryable, and a retry sent a second continuation to an agent that may
have acted on the first. Only a continuation still queued, or rejected, is now read as unsent.

* test(native-chat): start the child the loop waits on with an attach, not a second view

A view no longer starts a child whose last start failed, so the R2 case that
waits on a child started since the failure now gets that child from a client
attach, the one non-send starter left.

* fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn wherever a conversation opens

A send that opens a chat this process had not read yet (after a crash, from a
phone or the CLI) went through the delivery open, which never settled what the
dead generation left running; only the read restore and a successful acquire
did. When the send's start then failed, the turn stayed running for every
reader. The settlement now runs in the one journal open, at the crash boundary,
for every opener except an acquisition, which settles from the evidence it read
before its reserve; the read restore's separate step is gone.

* test(native-chat): prove the next child's start settles the turn an earlier child left

The R1 case lost its only settlement assertion when the latch it checked was
deleted. It now seeds the running turn the earlier child left and asserts it
ends at the exit's receipt, with the exit's row, before the message is handed
to the new child.

* test(native-chat): count a failed start's rows by row, not by text

Comparing the set of texts passed when two different rows carried the same
words, which is the duplicate the test exists to catch.

* test(native-chat): give the failed-start and stale-turn waits a loaded runner's budget

* test(native-chat): the interrupted create's own retry continues again

The merge of main's lease-latch fix replaced that test's retry of the interrupted create, under its
own operation id, with a fresh start whose result nothing read. That fresh start passes with the
released-reservation continuation deleted, so the case the fix exists for went untested. The retry
and its assertion are main's again.

* docs(native-chat): three comments that still had views starting agents

A start with nothing queued now comes from a command, goal change or rewind; an interrupted compaction
left alone would refuse every send, so no agent would ever start to finish it; and a current host
raises the unattached read refusal only once quit began, with the attach window belonging to an older
host.

* test(native-chat): pin the open's and the send's start and row counts, however the view binds

Opening a fresh chat whose starts fail makes one start and one row, with two
views bound before or after the create's child died; one send makes one more
of each.

* test(native-chat): a reader's open settles the turn a failed exit settlement left running

An exit whose settlement write failed leaves its turn running in the open journal. PR 1's open now
settles it, and this pins the two reads that reach it here: a reader reopening a chat the idle
sweep closed, and a read that opens the chat before the restart restore reaches it.

* test(native-chat): the view-start test's starting window outlasts two subscriptions on a loaded runner

A subscription reads the conversation before it returns, so under load the two views took longer
than the create child's 300 ms start, which then exited before the test checked that it had not.
The child now takes a second to fail.

* fix(native-chat): settle a gone generation's turn at every open but an acquisition's

The journal open skipped the settlement whenever the lease read reserved or
live, to leave an acquisition's own open to the acquisition. But a lease a
crashed process left in recovery also reads live, until the next acquire
resolves it. A send that opened such a chat, from a phone or the CLI after a
crash on a host that could not prove the old owner gone, skipped the
settlement; when its start then failed, the dead turn stayed running for every
reader. The acquisition now says it is the opener, and every other open
settles, whatever the lease still claims.

* test(native-chat): hold the create's start open until the views bind

The "view binds while the create is still starting" case gave the create a
300 ms head start and asserted the views bound before it died. On a loaded
runner the holds took longer, the create's exit landed first, and the case
failed its own precondition. The create's initialize now waits on a gate the
test releases once the views are bound.

* test(native-chat): a read that reaches a crashed chat before the startup reconcile settles its turn

On desktop the chat on screen at relaunch reads before startup reconciles the leases, while the
dead process's lease still reads live. The open settles the turn it left running anyway, and the
restore that follows finds it settled.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the composer's second error formatter

After the merge with main, every chat write in the composer path reports its
failure as a typed outcome worded by the refusal-notice table, so the send's
catch sees only a local throw. The {code, message} formatter this branch added
for it has no payload left to format, and its claim to be the one way a chat
words a failure is no longer true. The composer send is main's again.

* test(native-chat): pin the reason on a message rejected while its chat was closed

The reopen test checked only that the message reads as not sent; it now also
checks the Retry row carries the host's reason.

* docs(native-chat): drop the removed dispatch hold from six comments

A worker's session no longer takes a dispatch hold, and no release clock
rests a chat by visibility; the agent-launch comments, the abandon test,
the teardown test and the refusal census still said so.

* test(native-chat): rest the owner-status chat through the idle sweep, not a hold

The activation-gate test from #22808 put its chat at rest by holding and
releasing it, and passed the release-clock grace. This branch deleted both,
so the case threw before it reached its assertions. It now moves the host's
clock past the idle window and lets the sweep stop the agent and close the
conversation, then asserts the same owner answer and activation gate.

* fix(native-chat): show the structured pane's retrying line when a read fails

The read transport always hands the pane the host's words, so the error
state's "Orca keeps trying to load it" line, which showed only when there
were none, was never seen: the pane showed the host's text twice, as its
subtitle and on the status line under it. The structured pane now always
says its read keeps retrying, and the host's text stays on the status line.
The terminal-backed chat is unchanged.

* test(native-chat): wait for a send's background start before the refusal oracle removes its store

An accepted send wakes the delivery loop, which starts the agent in the background. The oracle's teardown disposed the loop but did not wait for that start, so its lease write could create a temp file in the store directory while the directory was being removed, failing the test with ENOTEMPTY about one run in four. The teardown now drains tracked starts before it closes the journals.

* fix(native-chat): a start a message waited on gets one failure row, the delivery loop's

When a queued message's start failed, two writers could report it under the same row: the delivery loop, when the adapter settled the start without proving it, and the exit settlement, when the child's exit landed. The last one won, so the chat's row could name a different cause than the one the message was rejected with, or be written twice.

The exit settlement now writes the start's row only when no message is queued and the loop has not already recorded that start. A start for a command, goal change or rewind, with nothing queued, still gets its row from the exit.

Brennan Benson acf8e679ea feat(native-chat): Claude sessions write their subagents into the host status store (#22536)
* refactor(native-chat): the host hands out client delivery's status subscriptions as they are

subscribeStatus and subscribeTurnCompletions wrapped client delivery's bound
methods in forwarding lambdas; they are now the same members, the way
waitForSendSettlement already is. The host is at its size limit, and the
next channel it hands out needs the line.

* feat(native-chat): Claude sessions write their subagents into the host status store

The Claude background-task tracker queues child-work evidence at each decision it
already makes (start, update, progress, terminal frame, roster replacement, turn
end, session end), plus the two facts its legacy row ignores: a foreground child's
progress and a foreground spawn call's result. The adapter drains that evidence
after the journal handled the frame and the parent row was republished, and the
host folds it into one record per child in its canonical store.

Nothing reads the records yet; the strip and sidebar keep their current sources.

* test(native-chat): pin the Claude child-work evidence and the host reduction of it

* test(native-chat): prove every hop from a Claude frame to the host's child record

The adapter delivers evidence after the frame's journal rows and the parent's
republished row; the frame script keeps the parent state today reads while the
records add outcome and activity; the runtime hands the evidence to the status sink
under the session's own address; both entry points wire the sink to the ingest.

* test(native-chat): read an optional task list as optional in the producer script

* test(native-chat): an address whose publish threw carries no child work

* test(agent-status): a foreign record differs from ours by producer alone

* feat(native-chat): a foreground Claude child's own tool call is what its record says it is doing

A child's tool traffic reaches the parent stream only for a foreground child. Read
after the journal handled the frame, the child's newest call still awaiting a result
becomes its open operation, previewed the way a hook-reported row previews its own
tool; the result closes it. The open call is derived from the journal's own
bookkeeping, not held a second time.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude child restarted under a new spawn call keeps reporting to its record

A task that ended and starts again stays hidden from the legacy row until a roster
lists it, so the tracker held no run for it: the new run's progress reached nothing
and a foreground re-run's own spawn result settled nothing. The run is now held
beside the live map, where the legacy row never reads it, until a roster hands it
back or it ends. A parity test pins the record's run count to the journal roster's
attempt on a new spawn call, the one event both count.

* refactor(native-chat): the Claude child-tool queries and translator contract get their own homes

The translator's child-tool queries move into claude-child-tool-queries.ts and its contract
type into claude-journal-translator-contract.ts. Brings the translator back under the size
limit.

* refactor(native-chat): Claude child evidence carries only its own edge's facts

Admission now keeps what a child's record already knows: labels, model,
owner, residency, the last message within an invocation, and a token count
that never shrinks. The evidence side copied all of those forward itself, a
second owner of the same rule. It now sends only what this edge observed,
and a task's token count comes from the frame that reported it.

* refactor(native-chat): Claude child evidence hands admission its raw labels

Admission now folds provider text to one line and drops a malformed fact
instead of refusing the record, so the evidence side no longer folds labels
itself. The description keeps admission's longer bound.

* fix(agent-status): admission alone decides a settled child's second ending

The reconciliation returned before admission whenever a record had already
settled with a definite outcome. That dropped the evidence an `unknown` ending
carries (its last message and tokens), which admission's refine-only rule keeps,
so that rule never ran for the structured producers.

The latch goes. Admission keeps the definite outcome, lands the late evidence,
and refuses a conflicting definite ending as `stale-invocation`, which the host
ingest already counts as the fence doing its job, not a fault.

Pinned through the real Claude producer and the host's own ingest.

* perf(agent-status): keep child records off the status hot paths

Child records made every store write and every status notification scale with the
whole store. Each Claude child progress frame cost about 2 ms with 5 chats holding
~200 child records (about 14 ms at ~1,400), and every status change on any lane
re-parsed every child record just to list parent rows.

- The store derives each frozen record's key once instead of re-parsing it on every
  mutation's validation and every alias lookup.
- Settled history is trimmed only when a batch settles something.
- Parent listing and the structured row's revision stamp read the parents and the
  revision directly instead of building a full snapshot.

A progress frame now costs about 0.3 ms at the same size, and listing parent rows no
longer depends on how many child records the store holds.

* fix(native-chat): an errored Claude spawn result no longer decides how the child ended

Interrupting a foreground Claude agent while it runs a tool delivers the spawn call's errored
result before the child's own killed/stopped frames. The spawn result settled the record
`failed` first, and admission then refused the later `cancelled` as a conflicting ending, so an
interrupted child read as a failure.

An errored spawn result now settles the child `unknown`; the child's own terminal frame refines
it to `cancelled` or `failed`. A successful spawn result still settles `succeeded`. The test
replays both frame orders the real CLI produced when interrupted.

* test(native-chat): pin a Claude foreground child's real finishing order

The real CLI ends a foreground agent with its own completed update, then a notification
carrying the final summary and usage, and only then the spawn call's result. Existing tests
modeled the spawn result arriving first, so nothing checked that the notification's summary
and tokens still land on a record the update already settled.

* perf(agent-status): a store write costs what it touches, not the whole store

With child records on the host, every mutation copied all five store maps and re-validated
every record, and reads scanned every child and alias. A parent status publish cost about
10 ms with 4,000 child records in the store, and a child update about 13 ms.

- A mutation writes into drafts over the committed maps and lands in place; a refused one
  is dropped with nothing to undo. The drafts keep the exact map order a copy would have.
- Only what a mutation touched is re-validated: touched parents, children, aliases, facts
  and tombstones, plus every alias of a touched child and whatever a removed parent owned.
  The full validation stays for snapshot restore.
- The snapshot byte budget is a running total instead of a re-measure.
- Children by parent, facts by parent, aliases by child, aliases by identity and retired
  aliases are indexed, so reads return stored records without scanning or re-parsing.
- The memoized alias identity and tombstone-key checks are gone: indexes derive them once.

A parent publish now costs about 0.015 ms and a child update about 0.06 ms at 40, 1,000 and
4,000 children alike. A seeded fuzz holds the store to the copy-and-validate-everything
path decision for decision, snapshot for snapshot and read for read, and a replica fed the
envelopes ends identical.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude child ends only on its own terminal frame

The child records were fed from the legacy background-task tracker's display decisions, so
they inherited rules that are not truth: a turn ending swept foreground children, a roster
omitting a background child settled it, a foreground spawn call's result ended the child,
and a new background start after any roster produced no record. Captured from the real CLI,
an agent moved to the background keeps its own shell running for 40 s after the parent's
turn ends, and that shell was settled `unknown` at the parent's `result`. Replayed with the
spawn result ahead of the roster, the same agent settled as a false success and was then
revived as a spurious second run.

A new decoder reads the task frames directly. `task_started` opens a child (a start for an
ended task id is a restart, the way messaging a finished agent resumes it), progress and a
live `task_updated` update it, and a terminal `task_updated` or `task_notification` ends it.
Rosters, turn ends and spawn results say nothing about a child. Every child in every capture
gets its own terminal frame, so no evidenced ending is lost. The notification's `tool_use_id`
names the run that ended (captured on a resumed agent's second run), so an ending from a run
that is already over no longer ends the current one; a run id the record never saw still
ends it, so nothing strands.

The tracker, its settled-task retention and the frame readers are back to exactly what main
has: the aggregate-roster split and the restart holding map are deleted, and the legacy row is
unchanged by construction.

* fix(agent-status): a session's end settles its live children instead of erasing them

When a structured session ended, the reducer removed every child record it held, finished
or not, so a reader could no longer tell how the session's work had ended. Now a child still
live when its session ends settles `unknown` (nothing reported how it ended), and a child that
had already ended keeps its outcome. The records still die with their parent: closing or
releasing the session drops the parent row, and the store drops its children with it. A
child's own outcome arriving after the session ended still refines the `unknown`.

The `inventory` and `turn-ended` edges, and the rules that settled children on a roster
omission or at a turn boundary, are deleted: no producer sends them any more. A restart is
now its own flag on a live edge, which is what a producer reports when a finished child
starts again under the same run handle.

* test(native-chat): replay the real Claude CLI's frame orders into a real host

Scrubbed cuts of five Claude CLI 2.1.280 stream-json captures (ids, paths and prompts replaced,
frame order and relative clock kept), replayed through the adapter into a hook server:

- an agent moved to the background keeps its own shell live past the parent's turn, and the
  shell settles at its own notification's time;
- the same capture with the spawn result ahead of the move ends the agent once, from its own
  notification, with no second run;
- a roster that omits a background child without its own ending leaves it live;
- a session that ends settles what still runs `unknown` and keeps every record;
- messaging a finished background agent opens its second run, which ends from its own frame;
- interrupts in both captured orders end `cancelled`, and a finished foreground agent keeps
  its summary and usage.

* test(agent-status): hold the store's running indexes and byte total to a rebuild

The copying-store fuzz never reaches the snapshot byte budget, so a drift in
the running byte total (or any index the public reads do not surface) passed
it. After every fuzzed step, including refusals, compare every index with one
rebuilt from the committed maps.

Brennan BensonandClaude d443320af2 refactor(native-chat): remove the unused terminal handoff (#22783)
* refactor(native-chat): remove the unused terminal handoff

No client ever called agentSession.requestHandoff or mounted the handoff
chrome. Delete the handoff coordinator, the terminal-owner runtime, the
proof write path and the unmounted UI. Keep agentSession.handoffStatus,
which released desktop clients read for worktree activation, and let
records an older build left mid handoff reconcile through the ordinary
restart and recovery paths.

* fix(native-chat): never let the pre-stop snapshot hold a chat's stop

Eviction now drains delivered events before quit's resume-offer snapshot. An
unbounded wait there sits ahead of the provider stop, so a sink whose journal
write stalls kept the child running until the step deadline aborted the
eviction. The offer is advisory: bound the drain and stop the child regardless.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(native-chat): drop helpers only the terminal handoff called

`claudeAuthEnvCarriedForward`, `isPathWithinDirectory` and
`queryWindowsProcessRowsFresh` lost their last caller with the handoff. The
fresh-scan tests now go through `queryWindowsProcessDescendants({ fresh: true })`,
the teardown path that still depends on that contract.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(native-chat): stop citing the removed handoff in lifecycle comments

Six comments still named the handoff coordinator, a handoff suspend, or a
terminal-owned session as live participants in the flows they describe.

* test(native-chat): pin that a start dead before proving owes no settlement

The removed restart handoff test pinned this branch; nothing else did.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(native-chat): keep the owner-status read behind an in-flight attach

The handoff removal dropped the per-session queue from `handoffStatus`, so a
read landing mid-start reported the reservation (no owner) instead of the
settled chat owner, and shipped desktop clients blocked worktree activation on
it. The read is queued again, as it was before the removal.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(terminal): remove the agent-session PTY write gate

The gate only refused a write when a PTY had been bound to a chat session, and the
only code that ever bound one was the terminal handoff this branch removes. With it
gone, every admit/readmit returned "admitted" unconditionally, so the checks on the
renderer write path, the runtime controller backstop, terminal.send, agent prompts,
preview input and orchestration pointers, the refusal fields on terminal.send and
worker-start receipts, the plugin and CLI refusal copy, and the adopted-pane
orchestration routing could no longer run. Ordinary writes take the same path in
the same order as before.

* refactor(native-chat): drop the transcript helpers only the handoff called

appendLegacyTranscriptMessages fed the terminal transcript catch-up and
proveClaudeTranscriptBranch backed the terminal owner's exit proof. Both lost
their last caller with the handoff. Their tests now go through the live entry
points instead: the roster bounds through the legacy import, the pinned-read and
growth tests through the ancestry replay the history window uses, and the marker
rules through the string proof in their own file rather than the session-file
resolver's.

* fix(native-chat): stop calling a starting chat "mid-handoff"

A send refused because the chat's owner is not settled showed "The session is
mid-handoff (<stage>)." in the composer. With the handoff gone, the stages that
reach it are a chat that is still starting, or one whose previous agent process
has not yet been confirmed stopped. The message now says which of the two it is.
The refusal code is unchanged.

* test(native-chat): type the stand-in roster decoder without a cast

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* refactor(codex): name the pinned rollout lookup for what it does

With the terminal handoff gone, the module named codex-tui-rollout-proof holds
only the pinned rollout lookup that structured Codex launches use to resume a
thread, so the name described code that no longer exists. Rename the module and
its options type. Also drop a mobile allowlist assertion that pinned the
removed agentSession.requestHandoff method, which no longer exists to allow.

* refactor(native-chat): type the owner-status reply as the host sends it

The handoffStatus reply type still listed the terminal handoff's fields and
states (terminal placement, host label, proof retry, queued and waiting phases,
the to-terminal direction). No host writes them any more and the only client
reader parses the reply as unknown, so they described nothing. The reply on the
wire is unchanged.

* refactor(native-chat): normalize terminal-handoff lease values once at decode

Nothing in this build writes a terminal owner (`runtimeKind: 'tui'`) or the
handoff's `preparing` / `old-owner-stopped` stages, but the in-memory types
still admitted them, so readers across the host kept branches for values no
path produces and the compiler could not point at them.

The store now validates the on-disk shape, which still accepts those values so
an older record is not quarantined, and maps them once while parsing:

- `preparing` and `old-owner-stopped` become `recovering`
- a `tui` lease becomes `native`; when it records a process it also becomes
  `conflicted`, the claim every build probes but never stops. A plain native
  owner would be stopped by restart recovery, here and in older builds.

Revisions are taken over the normalized state on both sides of every compare,
and the mapped record reaches disk with the store's first transaction, the
same way the tab-id backfill does.

The in-memory types narrow to what this build writes, and the branches that
existed only for the removed values go. Structured-worker identity keeps its
verdict for a former terminal owner by refusing a conflicted claim rather
than a non-native kind.

* refactor(native-chat): stop threading the owner kind through a reservation

A reservation only ever names a native owner now, so the request no longer
carries a kind and the reserved lease records `native` directly. The attach
params keep `runtimeKind`: agentSession.ensure and create accept it, and the
operation fingerprint stored in the ledger covers it.

* test(native-chat): pin the legacy-lease rewrite with a transaction that changes nothing else

Hiding a tab also committed the visibility index, so the no-op transaction
wrote the file even when its open-time revision was wrong. Committing the index
first leaves the pending rewrite as the only reason to write.

* test(native-chat): give the legacy-lease store test a tab id so the backfill cannot supply its rewrite

The seeded record had no surface tab id, so the next open backfilled one and
that rewrite alone made the no-op transaction write. The test passed with the
legacy-lease rewrite signal removed.

* test(worktree-activation): restore the OMP surfaced-agent resume test

The handoff removal deleted it alongside the terminal-owner tests, but it
covers the surfaced-PTY block that still guards resume, including an agent
whose ownership is unknown.

Brennan Benson e0144a9eb6 fix(native-chat): show the Codex and Claude model picker the moment a chat opens (#22756)
* fix(native-chat): show the Codex and Claude model picker the moment a chat opens

A new structured chat showed no model picker until its session had been
created, spawned, initialized and had answered a model listing — and the
picker then listed the models a second time. Codex's listing often goes to
the network, so the picker took 0.6-2 s to appear.

- Keep a host-owned model catalog per agent and account home, persisted on
  success only and refreshed in the background once it ages out. A new
  read-only agentSession.modelCatalog RPC answers from it without a live
  session; sessions reuse it instead of listing again.
- Render the picker while the launch is still provisional, showing the saved
  default. A pick made before the session exists is held and applied once it
  publishes; only the host's acceptance saves it as the default.
- Mark the model and effort set in the user's Codex config as the listing's
  default (config/read), so the first frame names what the chat will run.
- Resolve the account a record-less read would use without running launch
  preparation, which writes and syncs account state.

* fix(codex): disable plugins in the model catalog probe app-server

* fix(native-chat): read the host model catalog only for panes on this machine

* fix(native-chat): name a pre-report model only for a chat this view launched

* test(native-chat): pin the launch latch across publish

* test(native-chat): pin a held pick reaching the host before the first send

* fix(claude): pin the catalog probe's config dir by the session spawn's rule

* fix(native-chat): read the host model catalog only for a visible chat

* refactor(native-chat): keep the structured options hook under the line cap

* fix(native-chat): send the first turn only after every pick held during launch settles

* fix(claude): name no default effort from the catalog probe listing

* fix(native-chat): name no listed default model for a chat resumed from history

* refactor(native-chat): let the launch own picks made before it publishes

A pick made while a chat launches had no fence to go to, so the pane held it
and flushed it after publish; every other sender (the outbox, the launch
prompt) then needed its own gate to wait for that flush. The launch now keeps
those picks in its own state, applies them against the create receipt's fence
before it counts as published, and every sender follows publish by
construction. The pane flush, the outbox gate and the module-wide held-pick
registry are gone.

The launch also snapshots the saved selection its create seeds when the intent
is built, so a pick in another chat no longer relabels one still launching, and
a pick the host refuses is reported the way a refused mid-session pick is.

* fix(native-chat): name no default model a workspace's own config can replace

The catalog's default is the account's, read without a working directory, but
a chat runs in its worktree, where a project config (Codex's .codex/config.toml
between the project root and the worktree, or a Claude .claude settings file
that sets a model) picks the model instead. The picker named the account
default there while the chat ran the project's model.

A new chat's catalog read now names its worktree. The host checks that
workspace for such config (existence only for Codex, the model key for
Claude) and, when any is present or the workspace is not a local directory,
serves the listing with no default, so the picker names nothing until the chat
reports its model.

* fix(native-chat): name the listed default model before the report only for Codex

* fix(claude): let an option pick made while Claude starts wait for it instead of being refused

* fix(codex): name no listed default when the configured model is not in the listing

Brennan BensonandClaude 6ae6ed08bb fix(claude): open structured chat without a startup deadline, and make Retry start fresh (#22364)
* fix(claude): open structured chat without a startup deadline, and make Retry start fresh

Publish the Claude session as soon as its process is spawned instead of racing
initialize against a fixed 10s deadline. Prompts sent before startup lands are
held and written in order once it does. An exit or sign-in failure before startup
ends the session with the reason and the CLI's stderr.

A create that failed because the process provably exited now carries
ownerVerdict 'exited', so the client marks the launch failed and Retry mints a
new operation instead of replaying the stored failure.

* fix(native-chat): sending into a chat that failed to start restarts it

* fix(native-chat): a send with no live owner restarts it once

A provider child that timed out or exited hands its lease back, and every
later send was refused agent_session_ownership_unknown. Clients read that
code as "not admitted yet" and resend forever, while only a surface hold
could make a new child, once per mount, with its failure swallowed.

The send now routes to a live owner, otherwise restarts one from the
persisted resume state where resume eligibility allows it (single-flight
per session), otherwise refuses with the new settled
agent_session_owner_unrecoverable. Unverifiable, reserved and handed-off
leases are left alone. The desktop hold now logs its failure.

* test(native-chat): pin the unrecoverable refusal as settled in the outbox

* test(native-chat): pin the release clock after a send restarts an unheld owner

* test: read the sent operation id without a cast

* fix(native-chat): type the send-recovery record lookup as the store returns it

* fix(native-chat): a send ensures its owner before admission, and an unheld owner idles for 30 minutes

* fix(native-chat): a create that throws releases its event sink

A child that dies between spawn and journal attach can still write through
the host's event sink, which attach unbound in onAcquiring and never re-bound
because onAttached never ran. The orchestration released that sink only when
performAttach returned a refusal; a thrown failure (the root-exit path) kept
the sink cached with its queued write, so the next attach's drain barrier and
runtime shutdown's flush waited forever.

Also pins the publish-on-root-exit clause for a start that never proved:
deleting it reddened nothing before.

* fix(native-chat): a resend the journal answers restarts nothing, and a send joining a restart rebases from the fence it replaced

* fix(native-chat): the host learns a Claude start positively, and persists only proven options

A publish-first create used to read the session's options before Claude had
answered initialize. With startup pending that read fell back to the built-in
catalog's default, so `record.options.model` was persisted as `sonnet` for
every user whose CLI default is something else; an owner handoff or a reopen
then replayed `set_model('sonnet')` and silently switched their model.

The adapter now reports `started` once startup facts are applied and saved
options restored. The host keeps a `providerChildPhase` on the session it
owns: a starting child hands over nothing but the saved options as intent,
and the `started` event re-reads the options as fact and persists them through
the same record write a user's option change takes. The status summary carries
`hostExecutionPhase` (optional, wire-safe), and the chat pane says the agent is
still starting instead of showing nothing.

A child whose exit already reached the adapter before acquire returns is no
longer handed over as live; the create fails with the CLI's diagnostic.

* fix(native-chat): a hold and a send that find the owner gone share one restart, and a send the ledger already holds restarts nothing

* fix(native-chat): a failed create answers one refusal shape, stamped once at the boundary

A create whose Claude process was seen to exit answered twice in two shapes:
the first call threw a generic runtime error, and only the replay of the same
operation carried the `ownerVerdict: 'exited'` refusal that lets a client
retry under a new operation. Three sites stamped the verdict and the store
failure path stamped nothing.

The first-hand root exit is now returned as the refusal on the first call,
with the provider's own diagnostic as its message. The verdict is stamped in
one place, at the boundary of the attach, from the durable row the operation
settled to, so every refusal shape answers the same fact and no site can
forget it. The per-site stamps are gone.

* fix(native-chat): a send into a session whose child ended restarts it before admission

A session that published and then lost its Claude child before startup (not
signed in, for one) keeps a released lease and a chat the user can still type
into. The send was refused as ownership-unknown, the outbox parked it as
pending admission, and nothing ever restarted the child: the message sat
there until the user closed and reopened the tab.

A send reaching a session with no provider child now runs the same resume a
surface's first hold runs, before the write is admitted. The resume reserves
a new fence, so that send is answered stale with the published fence and the
client's outbox re-drives under it, as after any fence change. A resume that
fails is not this send's answer; admission reports the lease as it stands.

* chore: restore pnpm-lock.yaml to origin/main (local pnpm rewrote it)

* test(native-chat): pin the pre-handover exit as a failed acquire; stub the status feed in the delivery test

An exit the adapter observes before acquire returns now fails the acquire
with the CLI's diagnostic instead of handing over a dead child; the
published-then-ended path stays pinned by the slow-init startup case. The
delivery test renders the pane, which now activates the host status feed.

* test(native-chat): a same-ID re-hold over the wire joins the one resume, and a replay reopen goes on the idle clock

* test(native-chat): a re-hold that joins a failing resume proves one resume ran

* fix(native-chat): a create whose child was proven gone answers the refusal on the first call

The previous change answered a first-hand root exit as the exited refusal on the
first call, but the common failed start never took that path: when the close
ladder proves the whole tree dead the acquisition error is a plain one, the
store-failure classifier rethrows it, and the client still saw a runtime error
first and the refusal only on replay.

The cleanup that proves the child gone now names such a failure
`AgentSessionAcquisitionExitProvenError`, carrying the provider's diagnostic,
unless it already names its own verdict (a refusal, a typed exit proof, a host
store code). The attach answers both proven-exit kinds as the refusal its replay
gives. How a failed acquisition settles and how it is first answered now live
beside the verdict stamp, in the failed-create module.

* test(native-chat): pin the outbox re-driving a stale-refused send under the resumed fence

A send into a session whose child ended is answered stale once the host has
restarted the child. The outbox keeps that operation queued and blocked, and the
fence change the resume publishes re-drives the same operation under the new
fence; the host admits it.

* fix(native-chat): a child restarted for a send nobody holds is still released

The restart a send runs for a childless session takes no holder, on the premise
that the sending surface already holds one. A one-shot writer holds nothing, so
the child it restarted had no release clock and lived until the app quit. The
write resume now arms the clock when no holder is present, as the first-hold
resume already does. The send-after-failed-start cases also pin that the stale
answer's operation is admitted when re-sent under the new fence, and that two
racing sends restart the child once.

* test(native-chat): pin the picked Claude model across a resume whose child starts on its own default

The started event re-reads and persists what the child reports. A resumed child
answers initialize with its CLI default before the saved pick is restored over
it; the record must hold the pick while starting and after started.

* Revert "fix(native-chat): a child restarted for a send nobody holds is still released"

This reverts commit e52c4a6f08.

* Revert "test(native-chat): pin the outbox re-driving a stale-refused send under the resumed fence"

This reverts commit 136a39deb0.

* Revert "fix(native-chat): a send into a session whose child ended restarts it before admission"

This reverts commit 39234e44bf.

* refactor(native-chat): make ensure-owner a step of the serialized send

A send that found the owner gone restarted it OUTSIDE the host's per-session
serialize, through a single-flight resume map shared with the surface hold, then
rebased its fence by heuristic. The attach body is now callable from inside
`serialize` (`attachStructuredAgentSessionUnderSerialize`), and every restart
runs there: a hold, a send's ensure-owner step, provider-exit recovery and the
rewind owner replacement take turns on one queue, so the first to run attaches
and the next finds its child. The single-flight map and `isResuming` are gone.

Admission is two-phase for a send: the ledger's answer comes first and places
nothing; a send it will admit gives the session an owner, and only then are the
row placed and the lease and fence checked. A send it will replay into a closed
session makes the journal readable and spawns nothing. The session entry
records the released fence the child replaced (`resumedFromFence`), so a writer
current as of that owner is admitted at the new fence by bookkeeping, whether it
ran the restart or arrived behind it.

The resume reads its record only after this host has reconciled it and exited
any recovery stage a failed attempt latched, so a hold behind a failed attempt
makes its own attempt against the lease as it now stands.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude start proving itself no longer waits on the CLI

The host handles a Claude child's `started` on the recovery chain every
session's unexpected-exit handling shares, under that session's serialized
step. It then asked the CLI for the model list and settings again, so one slow
CLI held every other session's exit recovery, and its own close, behind up to
two request timeouts.

The adapter already holds those answers when startup proves: the settings read
at startup, the restore's confirmations, and the initialize result the SDK
answers the model list from. `started` now carries that snapshot, and the host
turns it into one record write without any provider I/O.

* test(native-chat): a hold reads its lease only after this host has reconciled it and exited a latched recovery stage

* fix(claude): a chat whose first start failed resumes as the same conversation

A Claude start that dies before initialize writes no transcript, so the next
start launches the chain head's provider id fresh instead of `--resume`. The
launch flag that chose that mode also chose the provider-handle link's origin,
so the fresh launch published a second `created` link onto a chain that
already had a head. The store refused it, the healthy child was closed, and
every later reopen, hold or send spawned and killed another Claude.

The launch now carries the two facts separately: `resumesTranscript` (launch
mode, from whether Claude wrote a transcript) and `continuesChain` (lineage,
from the record's chain head). The link origin reads lineage; rewind and the
Fast opt-in carry-over read launch mode.

* refactor(native-chat): a resume answers with a typed refusal the send classifies

`resumeHeldStructuredAgentSession` and the holds' `ensureProviderChild` answer
`{ ok: true } | { ok: false, refusal }` instead of throwing the refusal code.
The refusal is the attach's own, with its message and, when the failed attach
proved its child gone, its `ownerVerdict`. An attach that settles a failed
acquisition in the ledger and then rethrows the cause is read back off that row,
so a durably failed restart is a refusal and only an unrecorded error is a fault.

The send classifies the refusal through a `Record` over every wire code — a new
code does not compile until it is placed — into transient (the lease is someone
else's to settle; the send runs as the lease stands) or terminal. A terminal
one answers `agent_session_owner_unrecoverable` carrying the cause, forwards the
verdict, and writes the same status row into the chat that a start that failed
leaves, so the user sees why after the error strip is gone. Nothing about the
failure is remembered; a Retry is a fresh attempt. A fault thrown by the restart
itself is reported and the send runs as the lease stands, since bookkeeping
never gates a user's action.

`hold()` still raises the refusal code for its RPC caller.

* fix(native-chat): a child's event sink belongs to the attach attempt that spawned it

The runtime kept one event sink per session id and handed it to every attach.
An attach that acquired a new child unbound that sink first, so when the
acquire then failed its dead child's queued frames stayed in the cached,
unbound sink. The earlier guard only discarded it when no session entry was
left, which a resume of a still-indexed session never satisfies: the next
attach's drain and shutdown's flush waited on it forever. A TUI-to-native
handoff acquire had the same shape.

Each acquiring attempt now mints its own sink. Only a successful attach (or a
proven handoff owner) adopts it as the session's, closing the one it
replaces; any other exit closes it with whatever its child queued. A re-attach
to a live child keeps the sink that child already writes through. A sink that
is not the session's own can no longer force the session's provider down.

The native handoff acquisition moves to its own module, which keeps the
handoff file under its line budget.

* test(native-chat): pin that only the adopted child's event sink still takes writes

Closing a failed attempt's sink and closing the sink a resume replaces were both
unpinned: removing either left every suite green, because neither sink is in the
map that drains and flushes read. The resume test now asserts the failed
attempt's sink and the exited generation's sink refuse writes, and the adopted
one accepts them; deleting either close reddens its own assertion.

* perf(native-chat): the chat reads only the host's startup phase from the status feed

The chat took the whole status summary to read one field, so every status change
for its session (prompt, update time, background tasks) re-rendered the chat
view. It now subscribes with the phase itself as the snapshot, so it re-renders
only when the phase changes.

* fix(native-chat): the startup-phase hook answers a phase or null, never undefined

* fix(native-chat): every restart is counted from the moment it is asked for, and a handoff clears the restart fence

Provider-exit recovery now restarts through the holds' `ensureProviderChild`
like a hold and a send do, so a child whose only surface left while the attach
ran goes on the idle clock instead of living until quit. A hold's resume and a
client attach are tracked as in flight from enqueue, not from their turn on the
queue, so a quit's drain waits for one queued behind a close before it decides
what to evict. A handoff back to native moves the fence in place and now clears
`resumedFromFence`: only a restart may rebase a writer. The failed-restart
status row is keyed by the send's operation id, not the clock, so a resend of
the same id that fails again adds no second row.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude start no longer waits behind another session's exit recovery

The runtime delivered every Claude lifecycle event on the single chain
exit recovery uses so teardown can drain it. That chain orders nothing
across sessions, and an exit recovery on it can run a full reacquisition,
so one chat's `started` waited on an unrelated chat's respawn and kept
its 'still starting' line up. `started` now takes only its own session's
serialized step, is queued the moment it is emitted (ahead of any later
exit of that child), and is tracked in a set the same teardown drain waits
on.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude create that dies at spawn is refused with the CLI's own diagnostic

A CLI that exited before its acquisition handed the child over was
refused with 'claude stream-json for session … exited while being
acquired', or with an unreadable start time, and the stderr the exit
carried (for example 'not signed in') appeared nowhere. The acquisition
now keeps the error its connection ended with and answers with it at
both sites; the generic message is only a fallback when none exists.

* test(native-chat): pin that a reopened Claude chat dying before initialize says why

A resumed start is published at spawn, so a CLI that exits before it
answers initialize fails a chat the user is looking at. Pin that the
open chat is sent the 'stopped before it finished starting' row with the
CLI's diagnostic even when the child's tree cannot be proven gone, and
that a message held for that start is refused rather than left in doubt.

* fix(native-chat): Stop while a Claude start drains its held prompts withdraws the rest

Stop withdrew held prompts only while startup was pending. Once startup
landed and the gate began writing them one by one, a Stop interrupted the
CLI and the prompts still waiting were written straight after it. Stop
now withdraws whatever the gate still holds in both states; the drain
takes each prompt off the queue immediately before writing it, so a
withdrawn prompt can never be written. The one already written still
gets the interrupt.

* fix(native-chat): the release clock keeps a session that still owes a sent message

When the last surface stops holding a session, the release clock evicts
it after the grace unless a turn is running. A message sent while Claude
is still starting is held, not running, so switching away from that chat
for the grace evicted the session and refused a message the user had
already sent. The clock now asks whether the session owes work: a running
turn, or a submission the provider has not taken yet (still pending in
the journal). Both are read from the journal; nothing new is stored. A
starting session that owes nothing is still released, and an explicit
close still ends everything.

* fix(native-chat): only a start that holds a sent message keeps a released session

The release clock kept any session with a pending submission. A Codex
send is admitted and stays pending until its echo, which may never come,
and only an eviction retires it, so such a session was never released
while the app ran. A pending send now keeps the session only while its
child is still starting, which is when the send is held for that start.
Pins that a ready session with an unechoed send is evicted, and that a
Claude chat whose turn finished is released after the grace.

* fix(native-chat): a send waits for the owner it met to prove its start before it is admitted

A Claude child is published before the CLI has answered initialize, so a send admitted right
behind a restart — or right behind the first start — was dispatched into a child that could die
milliseconds later, and learned of the death only as a delivery nobody could confirm. The terminal
refusal the send was written to give was unreachable on the real adapter for exactly the failure
it was written for.

The send's serialized step now admits nothing against a `starting` child. It registers for the
child's startup verdict and returns having placed nothing; the send waits off the session's queue
(the `started` and `ended` settlements run on it) and admits again once the child is `ready`, or is
refused `agent_session_owner_unrecoverable` with the child's own exit reason when it exits first.
The exit settlement writes the one status row, decided by the host's own phase rather than only
the provider's flag. A close, an eviction or a replacement answers the wait too, and quit releases
whatever is left; there is no timer. One spawn per user action holds across re-entries.

* fix(native-chat): restart the release grace when a start writes its held prompts

A prompt held while Claude starts is written when the start lands, but
its turn opens only when Claude echoes it. The release clock stopped
counting it once the child read ready, so a tick landing in that gap
stopped the child before it ran the user's first message. The start
landing now restarts a pending release's full grace, the same grace a
message sent to a ready chat gets before it is released.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(native-chat): a starting child owns the send; the adapter holds the message for its start

A send that meets a child still proving its start is admitted against it, as it was before the
off-queue startup wait: the adapter holds the message until startup lands and rejects it with the
child's own diagnostic when the child dies first, the exit settlement writes that cause into the
chat, and the release clock keeps a starting session that holds a sent message. The startup watch,
the off-queue wait loop and their teardown phase are gone; the exit settlement still reads a start
that failed off the host's own phase when the provider omits the flag.

The scripted-CLI test now pins that contract end to end: a restart a send asked for whose CLI dies
at initialize leaves the message rejected with the diagnostic, one row naming it, and the fence
moved by two; a healthy CLI is restarted once and written to; a send during the first start is
held and written once initialize answers, or rejected with the diagnostic when the CLI dies.

* fix(native-chat): a failed send restart says why, and offers a new chat only when nothing can restart it

The refusal a send gets when the host cannot restart the chat's agent is renamed
agent_session_owner_restart_failed and now reads "<Agent> couldn't restart: <reason>." with the
restart's own cause. "Start a new chat to continue." is added only when the resume was refused
because this host has no record to restart from or cannot run the one it has. Any other failure,
such as a CLI that is not signed in, leaves the chat retryable: the outbox stops auto-retrying, and
a manual Retry or a new send tries the restart again, since a refusal before admission leaves no
ledger row.

* fix(native-chat): a Claude start skips an option write the CLI never answers instead of faulting at the request deadline

* test(native-chat): wait for the recovery's reserved lease, not the released one it replaces at once

* fix(native-chat): a send whose restarted child dies before starting is rejected with the child's diagnostic

A child that never proved its start has accepted nothing: input is written
only after it initializes. A send admitted against such a child, whose
dispatch then found no session, settled unknown, twice, and the outbox took
Retry away. It now settles rejected with the child's own diagnostic, both
when the dispatch throws and when the exit settles the sends it left
unanswered, so the chat says why and offers Retry. A proven child's
unanswered sends stay in doubt, as before.

* test(native-chat): expect a send held for a start that never proved itself to settle rejected

* fix(claude): write a prompt held after startup already drained, instead of stranding it pending

* test(native-chat): pin that a send to a child that died before starting is answered rejected

* test(native-chat): leave the cast exit-session fixtures as they were, since a proven exit never rejects

* fix(claude): a saved option the CLI never answered stays saved instead of being replaced by the CLI's value

A start skips an option write the CLI does not answer within the request
deadline, and then persisted what the CLI reported in its place, so a slow
answer silently replaced the user's saved model or dropped their saved
permission mode. Silence is not a refusal: the unanswered option is now
recorded apart from a rejected one, the live child keeps running on the
CLI's value, and the saved choice stays on the record for the next start to
retry. An option the CLI rejects is still dropped as before.

* fix(native-chat): a rejected send opens no turn, so the row naming why it failed is not folded away

A send whose restarted child died before starting is rejected, and the
exit writes a row naming the cause. The chat's local clock had watched the
send go pending and stop, so it gave the message "Worked for 0s"; that
settled a turn that never ran, and the fold hid every non-prose row after
the message behind it, including the one naming the cause. The row only
appeared when a later send moved the turn anchor, which read as two rows
for one Retry. The host's journal already says the send was rejected; it
now answers that such a message opened no turn, which outranks the local
clock on desktop and mobile alike. A rejected send whose journal does
record a turn keeps its duration.

* fix(native-chat): a send whose restart died starting leaves the same row as any start that died

One failed attempt already leaves one row, but which row depended on when
the child died. A child that died after the send was admitted left "The
provider stopped before it finished starting: <cause>."; one that died
before the send was admitted left "Claude couldn't restart: <cause>." So the
same failure read two ways from one Retry to the next. When the refused
restart proved its child exited, the send now writes the startup-failure row
itself, as its comment always said it did. The refusal under the composer
still says the restart failed; a restart that failed for a reason other than
a child exiting keeps its own wording.

* fix(native-chat): a send rejected because the agent never started names the cause under the composer

When the child a send was admitted against died before starting, the host
rejected the send with the child's diagnostic behind the internal transport
marker. The client rightly hides that marker's detail, so the red line read
"Couldn't reach the agent" while the cause sat in the record. A startup
death is not a failed write: the host now words that rejection the way the
chat row does, "The provider stopped before it finished starting: <cause>.",
at every site that rejects for it. Desktop and mobile show a reason in words
verbatim already, and older clients do too, so no client change is needed.
Real write failures keep the marker and the generic copy.

* fix(claude): a saved option the CLI never answered survives a later change to a different option

The saved choice a start could not apply was kept on the record, but the next
option the user set persisted only what the child had applied, so changing the
permission mode or effort, or clearing the chat, silently dropped the saved
model. The adapter now reports which saved options are still unanswered, every
option write keeps those saved values, and a write the child accepts for that
option retires it.

* fix(claude): a send that meets a child whose exit already settled names that exit's cause

When the child a send was admitted against died starting and its exit
finished settling before the send reached it, the send was rejected with
"no live claude stream-json session for <id>", now shown under the composer
as the cause. The adapter keeps a settled exit's diagnostic until the chat is
acquired or closed again, so that send names what the CLI said. A refused
restart whose child died at spawn or while its start time was read is pinned
to leave one row in the words any failed start uses.

* test(native-chat): pin the words an exit settlement rejects a never-started send with

The startup gate and the dispatch reject a send first in every existing
scenario, so the exit settlement's own rejection had no test of its wording.

* fix(claude): derive which saved options are still unanswered from what the child applied

A write that lands already puts its option in the session's applied set, so
the unanswered list is that list minus what has since been applied, rather
than a second copy every option write must remember to edit. Session
fixtures built without the new set no longer throw on an ordinary write.

* fix(native-chat): a cleared chat starts from a saved choice the child never answered

Clearing a chat seeded the replacement from the values the child reported,
so a saved model or effort whose restore write the CLI never answered was
replaced by the CLI's own value in the new chat, even though the retired
record kept it. The replacement now keeps those saved values too, and its
start retries them.

* fix(claude): closing a chat forgets its exit's diagnostic even when the exit settles during the close

The diagnostic was dropped when the close began, but closing over an exit
that was still settling finishes that settlement, which kept it again, so a
closed or deleted chat held it until its next acquire. It is now dropped once
the close finishes. Pins that an acquire and a close each retire it.

* refactor(claude): keep a saved option the CLI never answered as the wanted value, not a list beside it

A restore cleared the session's wanted options and added back only the writes
the CLI answered, so an unanswered one lost the user's value and every later
writer had to be told to put it back: the start report, each option change and
/clear each carried a list of unanswered keys. The restore now keeps the saved
value as wanted and unconfirmed, so what the session reports and persists
already carries it, and the list, its adapter method and the started-event
field are gone. A refused option is still dropped.

/clear now starts the replacement from the record's options instead of reading
the child's live values, which can be a model the CLI fell back to.

* test(claude): wait for the start to finish before changing the saved model

The record holds the saved model from creation, so waiting for it returned at
once and the option write could reach Claude while it was still starting,
which refuses it. Wait for the effort the finished start reports instead.

* fix(i18n): translate the still-starting chat notice

The notice that a structured chat is still starting was only in English.

* test(claude): pin the failed acquisition's own reading-control release

The merge re-pointed this test at a child that exits after publish, where the
exit path also releases the binding, so it passed with the acquisition's release
deleted. A child that exits before publish leaves only that release. Also drops
the create 'init' phase, which lost its last producer when rewind stopped
proving before publish.

* refactor(claude): move unexpected-exit handling into the exit lifecycle module

The adapter crossed the 300-line limit once main's context-usage change
landed beside this branch's growth. The two methods that turn a Claude
process exit into an ended event now live next to the existing exit
helpers; behavior is unchanged.

Brennan Benson 60bd1dfdea feat(native-chat): one shell-environment setting for every structured chat (#22387)
* feat(native-chat): one shell-environment setting for every structured chat

Structured Codex chats started from the login-shell environment, while
structured Claude chats started from Orca's own process environment, so a
variable exported in .zshrc reached one and not the other. Both now start
from the same base, chosen by a new setting:

- on (default): the whole login-shell environment, as a terminal gets
- off: Orca's environment plus PATH, locale, SSH_AUTH_SOCK, and the
  variable names the user lists

The setting is re-read each time a chat starts or resumes. It is shown
only when Chat UI, the Chat UI default view, and structured native chat
are all on. Terminal-backed chat is unchanged.

* fix(native-chat): normalize the shell-environment settings when a profile loads

A hand-edited settings file could store the variable list as something other
than an array, and the structured runtime called `.filter` on it per launch, so
a malformed value failed every structured chat create and resume, and the
settings pane render. Normalize both keys where the profile loads, the same way
the other array settings are, through one shared normalizer the runtime policy
also uses. Also pin that an uncommitted name draft survives an unrelated
settings re-render.

* fix(native-chat): keep the pinned account as the only source of a structured chat's Claude home

The session record owns which Claude home a structured chat uses, and the
acquisition pin (claudeConfigDirEnvPatch) is the only emitter of
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, compared against what the child would otherwise inherit.
With the login-shell snapshot as the inherited base, a CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR
exported only in a shell rc flipped that comparison and produced an explicit
pin to the CLI default home, which moves the CLI off its default Keychain item.

Drop the inherited CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR in the Claude launch resolver before the
pin runs, as Codex already does for an inherited CODEX_HOME. A configured
per-agent overlay still passes through, since the record already honors it.

* fix(native-chat): drop Orca's own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR from a structured Claude child too

The process spawner merges Orca's process env under the launch env, so a
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR exported to Orca itself reached the child around the launch
resolver's drop and unseen by the account pin. One helper now strips it from
both inherited bases. Also declare the two shell-environment settings on the
runtime store contract and add the six new strings to every locale catalog.

* feat(native-chat): add shell variables one at a time with a removable list

* fix(native-chat): return focus to the name input after removing a shell variable

* fix(native-chat): use a neutral placeholder for the shell variable input

The empty input showed a grey HTTPS_PROXY as its placeholder, which reads as a
saved value, especially right after that exact entry is removed from the list.
Use "Variable name" instead, in every locale catalog.

Brennan Benson dc8cf30554 fix(native-chat): end a structured turn when the agent reports it failed (#22047)
* fix(native-chat): end a structured turn when the provider reports it failed (#22044)

A turn reads as working while its durable turn row says `running`, and only two
events could write a terminal row: the provider's turn-completed notification and
the provider process going away. A provider error that ends a turn is neither, so
the row stayed `running` with nothing re-deriving it, and the chat counted
"Working for N" for the life of the session.

Codex reports such a failure as an `error` notification naming the turn it ended,
with `willRetry` distinguishing it from a stream error it is about to retry. That
frame now settles the turn it names. Claude's CLI reports the same through its
session-state frame, whose `idle` arm the SDK documents as the authoritative
turn-over signal; that now settles the open turn too.

Codex's `thread/status/changed` deliberately settles no open turn: the app server
clears `running` on every error, including ones it reports as not affecting turn
status, so a turn still open there is still running. What it does settle is a send
whose dispatch was never answered — a timed-out dispatch is recorded as unverified
delivery, reads as work still owed, and nothing in a live session retired it.
Retiring it never makes the send re-deliverable.

Splits the codex notification translator so the file stays inside its line budget.

* fix(codex): defer idle dispatch release until turn end

* fix(claude): enable session state lifecycle events

Brennan Benson 434365d2de Offer to reconnect native chats that were working when Orca restarted (#21096)
* feat(native-chat): resume structured chats that were working at restart

Teardown records a marker for every session this host was genuinely running a
turn for, derived from the LIVE runtime rather than a persisted status row, so
a stale `running` row left by an older crash can never trigger a resume. On the
next launch a modal lists exactly which chats would resume and resumes them via
native continuation (Claude resume/resumeSessionAt, Codex thread id) — never by
re-sending the prompt, which is what makes an agent redo finished work.

A session resumes only when all of these hold: a teardown marker exists and has
not expired, the record's lease is released and reconciled, a provider resume
cursor exists and still matches the marker, the journal's own turn record names
the same turn, and the marker has not already been spent. Markers are consumed
before the resume is submitted, so a crash mid-resume cannot double-fire, and an
admission gate refuses a second concurrent resume for one session. Resumes are
staggered three at a time rather than spawning every provider at once.

The modal's "Don't ask again" checkbox writes the nativeChatResumeWorkOnRestart
setting, which Settings can turn back off; automatic mode runs the identical
predicate and staggering and reports what it did. Declining consumes the markers
so the prompt cannot return every launch — nothing is lost, because opening a
chat still re-acquires it at the same cursor.

* fix(native-chat): compare handle ROOT and turn state when offering a resume

Four defects QA found in the restart-resume offer, fixed together because the
first two interact: shipping the root fix without the state fix would convert a
silent no-op into actively offering finished chats.

1. Claude was never offered (0/4). The marker recorded agentSessionProviderHandleKey,
   which embeds Claude's leaf uuid — a branch cursor. The adapter's own close path
   appends a `resumed` link with an advanced leaf during the SAME teardown, so the
   marker went stale seconds after it was written and the drift guard refused every
   Claude session forever. Record and compare agentSessionProviderHandleRoot instead:
   the root is the part a resume must preserve, and changing it is a fork, which is
   exactly what this guard is for. Codex is unaffected (its thread id is the whole
   key) but uses the root too, so the rule is uniform.

2. The predicate compared turn IDENTITY but discarded turn STATE, so a `completed`
   turn satisfied it as readily as an interrupted one. Eviction rewrites `running`
   to `interrupted` and never to `completed`, so the state is what separates work
   that was cut off from work that finished. Require `interrupted` or `unverifiable`.

3. A chat blocked on a pending approval or question was marked as working, because
   the teardown reader accepted any `running` turn while the product's own projection
   calls that state `attention`. Teardown now defers to that projection: an agent
   waiting on the USER is not interrupted work.

4. "Resume all" could silently no-op. The modal fetched candidates at mount; by click
   time the chat's own pane may have bound and taken the hold, moving the lease to
   `live` so the predicate dropped it and the call returned no results, leaving the
   dialog open behind a dead button. Re-derive at click time and settle an
   already-live session as resumed — it is running, which is what the user asked for.

Test fakes now model the Claude close path that advances the leaf, which is why no
unit test could previously exhibit defect 1. Ablation covers all eleven guards.

* fix(native-chat): gate the already-live settlement on the full resume predicate

Two follow-ups from re-QA, both cases of a rule stated by intent rather than by
discriminator.

1. The already-live path bypassed the predicate. "Resume all" sends no session
   ids, so the fallback's target set was every marker, and it was gated only on
   the session having a live provider child. A chat the predicate had refused --
   a completed turn, say -- whose pane happened to own the lease was therefore
   settled as `already_live` and had its marker spent, inflating the "Resumed N"
   count with chats that were never eligible. No provider spawned and no tokens
   were spent, but a marker the predicate rejected must never be consumed.

   The resumable set now takes an explicit `leaseState`. The already-live path
   derives a second set with ONLY the released-lease clause relaxed, and settles
   a session just when it is in that set. Every other clause still applies.

2. The `attention` rule was one-sided. Teardown refuses to mint a marker for a
   chat blocked on the user, but the set predicate had no equivalent, so a marker
   arriving by any other route was offered once eviction rewrote its turn to
   `interrupted` -- the same asymmetry the completed-turn case had.

   Gated on projectStructuredAgentSessionStatus === 'attention'. That projection
   tests for a pending approval or question BEFORE it looks at turn state, so it
   still reports `attention` after the turn is settled, which makes it the durable
   signal and keeps one source of truth with teardown.

Ablation now covers thirteen guards, including one for each of the above.

* fix(native-chat): capture awaits-user on the marker instead of re-deriving it

The awaits-user clause could never fire. It asked the live projection for
`attention`, which needs a prompt whose resolution is still `pending` -- but
teardown CANCELS that prompt a few phases after it writes the marker. By the next
launch the evidence is gone, for precisely the sessions the clause was written
for. QA measured the injection still being offered and then resumed.

This is the same shape as the leaf-drift bug: state read after teardown is not the
state that justified the marker. The discriminator, now applied across the whole
predicate:

  - a fact teardown itself destroys or mutates must be CAPTURED on the marker
    while it is still true;
  - a fact that evolves on its own must be RE-DERIVED at read time, never
    snapshotted.

So `awaitsUser` is now recorded at teardown and the predicate reads the recorded
value. Teardown still declines to mint a marker for such a session, so the
recorded flag is the second line rather than the only one.

Audit of every other clause against the same test:

  - turn id (captured) -- teardown rewrites turn STATE but never the id. Correct.
  - provider handle root (captured) -- the close path appends a resumed link, and
    appendAgentSessionProviderHandleLink refuses one that changes the root, so the
    root is invariant under exactly the mutation that broke the key. Correct.
  - turn state (re-derived) -- DELIBERATE exception, stated here rather than left
    implicit: we are not reading the state that justified the marker, we are
    reading teardown's receipt that it settled the turn. A turn still `running`
    means eviction never finished, and we refuse. Correct, and intentionally so.
  - lease reconciled / released / handoff stage (re-derived) -- these answer a
    different, launch-time question: may this host take the lease NOW. The
    teardown-time value would be meaningless, and `unreconciled` is cleared by
    this launch's own reconciliation. Correct.
  - adapter support, marker TTL, marker consumption (re-derived) -- all evolve
    independently of teardown. Correct.

Only awaitsUser was on the wrong side.

* fix(native-chat): drop the unreachable awaits-user marker flag

The captured flag was dead code. `awaitsUser` could only be true when the
projected status was `attention`, and `attention` hits the `continue` above the
push -- so every marker teardown can ever write carries `false` (QA measured
22 of 22 across two real teardowns). The predicate clause reading it was
unreachable by any production path.

A flag that is structurally always false is worse than no flag: it reads as a
safeguard, so the next person to touch this trusts it. The asymmetry it was
added to close was only ever reachable by fault injection, because teardown is
the sole writer of markers and already refuses attention sessions.

Removing it also drops an upgrade discontinuity: as a required field it made a
marker written by the previous build fail validation and be silently discarded,
costing a resume offer on precisely the upgrade where the user was mid-turn.
Markers predating the providerHandleRoot rename still will not parse, but those
carry a leaf-sensitive key the predicate would refuse anyway, so nothing usable
is lost.

In its place the teardown gate now states that `status !== 'working'` is the
SINGLE gate for awaiting-user sessions, why a predicate-side mirror would be
unreachable, and why it could not even re-derive the fact -- so the reasoning is
inherited rather than rediscovered.

Ablation is back to twelve guards; every other clause is unchanged.

* fix(native-chat): say reconnect, not resume, and show each offer's age

Two changes, both independent of the parked continuation decision.

1. The copy claimed something QA disproved. "Resuming continues each agent where
   it left off" is false: reconnection restores the session at the point it
   stopped, with full context and without re-sending the prompt, but the
   interrupted reply does not continue on its own. The toast's "Resumed N chats"
   implied work had restarted.

   Audited every user-facing string against the rule that none may claim work
   continues or that a reply resumes -- which caught more than the three strings
   the fix started from. The title, the row button, "Resume all", "Resuming...",
   the not-now hint ("picks it up where it left off"), the checkbox and its hint
   ("resume on their own"), the list's aria-label and the Settings row all made
   the same claim. The user-facing verb is now reconnect throughout; the body and
   update variant state outright that the interrupted reply will not continue.
   en.json synced, runtime boot catalog regenerated.

   If we later decide to send a continuation instruction, this is one commit to
   change back. Shipping text we know to be false was the worse option.

2. Rows now show each offer's age. The TTL is 24 hours and a stale offer looked
   identical to a fresh one. The marker already carried `recordedAt`, so this is
   a render change plus one field on the renderer's candidate type, formatted
   with the existing formatUiRelativeTime helper rather than a new one.

   The clock is stamped once when the list arrives rather than read during render:
   ages then stay stable across re-renders, and the render stays pure, which the
   react(purity) rule requires.

Guards, predicate and RPC are untouched; ablation still covers twelve.

* feat(native-chat): show the workspace name on each reconnect row

A row read `codex · folder:8f3a1c22-… · 8 hours ago`. Recognising which chats
would reconnect is the entire point of the list, and at twenty rows a UUID
identifies nothing.

No RPC or host change was needed: the renderer can already resolve this id.
Resolved the way automation dispatch resolves the same id space
(resolveAutomationDispatchWorkspace) -- a folder workspace by its full
`folder:<uuid>` key via getKnownWorktreeById, a git worktree by its bare
`repoId::path` id via allWorktrees. Both return a Worktree, whose displayName is
a required field, and DetectedWorktree extends Worktree so either shape answers.

Falls back to the id when nothing resolves, which is what the row showed before
and also covers the window before the worktree store has hydrated.

The lookup lives in a per-row subcomponent because a hook cannot run inside
`map`, and its selector returns a primitive string so repeated selector runs
cannot churn referential equality.

* feat(native-chat): group the reconnect modal by worktree and add opt-in continuation

Grouping. Rows are now grouped under a worktree heading with the repo glyph and
an agent count, using the sidebar's own collapse mechanics. Only presentational
pieces are reused -- RepoIconGlyph, CompactAgentExpansion, AgentIcon and
formatShortTimeAgo. The sidebar's agent row cannot be: worktree-card-compact-agent-row
imports DashboardAgentRow, the dashboard's own type, so both surfaces render one
live-agent model requiring a pane, tab and status entry. Every chat offered here
is by definition stopped, so supplying that would mean inventing live state.

Two things I had assumed were reusable and were not:

  - DashboardHostBadge returns null unless hostKind is ssh or remote. Structured
    chat is local-only, so it would always render nothing. The host line is
    omitted rather than faked; the badge is the right element to add if and when
    structured chat gains remote support.
  - No state dot. Every AgentDotState misleads here: idle and unverifiable both
    presuppose a live pane, interrupted renders red like an error, done green,
    working a spinner. A missing dot beats one saying these agents are running.

One worktree renders flat with no heading -- a name, count and chevron around a
single group says nothing the dialog has not already said.

The age column now uses formatShortTimeAgo for sidebar consistency. It takes
(timestamp, now) and subtracts internally rather than taking a delta, so the call
is (recordedAt, listedAt); passing the old delta would have rendered plausible
nonsense. The clock is still stamped once into state, so ages stay stable and the
render stays pure.

Continuation. A secondary "Reconnect and continue" action sends one message, from
a single shared constant, identical for both providers. Reconnect is unchanged and
still sends nothing. An info popover quotes the literal message read from that
same constant, so what is shown cannot drift from what is sent.

Ablation now covers fourteen guards. Two are new: continuation only follows a
reconnect that actually happened, and -- inversely -- a send injected into the
reconnect path must turn the test red, since "don't ask again" rests on reconnect
never sending.

* feat(native-chat): say terminal sessions kept running, and clear the quality gate

The modal lists stopped chats with no way to tell that CLI agents are fine, and
the true state of the world is counterintuitive: the terminal sessions survived
the restart and the chats did not. One line now says so, next to the heading
where it frames the list rather than as a footnote at the bottom.

Wording follows the app's own vocabulary rather than inventing a term: the
catalog settles on "terminal sessions" (terminalSessionCount, "Terminal sessions
are grouped by workspace", "No terminal sessions yet"), and UpdateCard already
reassures with "Your terminal sessions won't be interrupted during the update" in
the same text-xs text-muted-foreground treatment. "kept running" rather than
"were restored" -- nothing reconnected them, they never stopped, and the line
says nothing about why.

Also clears check:code-quality:changed, which I had not been running -- oxlint
alone covers neither the design-system nor the casting audit, so 18 findings had
accumulated across the branch.

  - design system (4): Button spacing hand-rolled as gap-1/px-2 is just size="xs";
    PopoverContent and DialogTitle own their typography and spacing, so the
    text-xs moved to the popover's own children and the title's icon gap moved to
    a plain wrapper.
  - casting (14): production code loses its assertions outright via Reflect.get,
    the idiom already used in managed-hook-detection-commands and
    worktree-name-retirement. The marker validator reads each field through
    Reflect.get and now checks recordedAt is a number rather than asserting it;
    the store-file parse uses the existing `file` shape instead of a second
    assertion; the runner narrows the admission error's owner with typeof.
    Test fixtures keep their assertions behind the line-specific SAFETY:
    rationale the repo mandates for exactly this case.

One trap worth recording: the audit reports an assertion at the line its
EXPRESSION OPENS, not where `as` appears, so a disable-next-line above the
closing brace of a multi-line literal is inert and silently changes nothing.

Guards unchanged; ablation re-proved 14/14 at this head.

* fix(native-chat): give the reconnect row's provider icon an accessible name

Every row rendered the provider as a bare AgentIcon, whose svg carries no
aria-label, title or alt. With a Claude chat and a Codex chat in one worktree the
two rows were identical to any non-visual consumer, and the dialog offered
several identically-named "Reconnect" buttons with nothing to tell them apart.

A regression from 233e37b2bd, where the row read `${agent} · ${workspace} · …` as
text. Moving the workspace name into the group heading was right; dropping the
provider to an unlabelled glyph is what lost the information.

AgentIcon takes no label prop, so the icon is wrapped the way
NativeChatSupportedAgents already names it: a span with role="img" and an
aria-label from formatAgentTypeLabel, the same labeller the sidebar and dashboard
rows use.

The per-row button also names its agent now ("Reconnect Claude chat"). The
identical buttons were half the reported harm, and an accessible name that opens
with the visible word keeps WCAG 2.5.3 satisfied. Say so if you would rather ship
only the icon label -- it is one attribute and one catalog key to drop.

Age code untouched, as asked: formatShortTimeAgo still takes (timestamp, now) and
is still called with (recordedAt, listedAt).

* fix(native-chat): scope resume markers to one launch and report the real dispatch

Three defects in the restart-resume path, all of which could resume a session
that was not genuinely working or claim one was continued when it was not.

Launch scoping. A durable marker with a 24h TTL is a write-ahead latch: a
teardown write that failed or timed out, or a store restored from its backup,
left a previous generation's marker actionable, and automatic reconnect would
have acted on it silently. Markers now carry the id of the launch that wrote
them, and only the launch immediately after may claim them. The launch id lives
in its own file with no backup mechanism, so it cannot roll back in step with
the markers it is proving adjacency for. Startup claims the previous launch's
markers into launch-scoped memory and deletes every durable copy in the same
step, so the durable fact dies at claim time rather than at use time. Both
halves fail closed: an unprovable predecessor and a clear that throws each
claim nothing.

Dispatch states. The send layer answers ok as soon as Orca owns the message;
the provider's own answer lives in the submission. Continuation read only the
envelope, so a rejected turn/start was reported as continued and stamped the
journal saying the agent had been asked to carry on. All four states are now
preserved, and only an accepted dispatch appends the attribution note.

Claude pre-echo sends. Claude cannot write a running turn until the SDK echoes
the user message back, which is seconds on a real journal, so a turn-id-only
marker dropped exactly the sessions that were working hardest. A send that has
not become a turn now carries its own identity, and the launch-side predicate
asks the journal about that submission's dispatch state instead.

* fix(native-chat): follow an accepted send to its turn, and settle before judging

Two defects found in QA, both reproduced twice.

Follow the submission forward. The launch-side predicate accepted a
submission-shaped marker only while its dispatch was pending or unknown, but the
window in which work is submission-shaped is precisely the window in which the
dispatch is about to be accepted: the send settles during teardown and the turn
it opened is then cut off as interrupted. Judgement was frozen at the moment the
marker was written, so the predicate refused the very sessions this was built
for and fired only when the send never reached the provider. An accepted
submission is now followed to the turn it opened -- matched through the user
item key a turn names and a submission is aliased by -- and that turn is judged
by the existing turn rule. Accepted alone still proves nothing: without the link,
or with a turn that completed, this refuses as before.

Settle before judging. A send resolves as soon as Orca owns the message, while
its dispatch is still pending; that is the ordinary successful path. Reading the
dispatch off the send result therefore reported every delivered continuation as
pending and never wrote the attribution note. The outcome is now decided on the
settled submission, through the host's existing settlement waiter, with the send
result as fallback when nothing settles in time.

The failed-note path no longer swallows its error. It stays best effort -- a
journal that refuses the note must not turn a delivered continuation into a
failure -- but the failure is reported through the host's error sink instead of
being discarded, so it cannot regress unseen again.

The surface's send is typed against the wire result rather than a hand-written
subset, which is what let a test assert a shape the host never returns. Binding
the surface to the host moves into its own file: the host was one line under the
line cap, and the bindings carry decisions that belong beside their consumer.

* feat(native-chat): show the reconnect offer the way the worktree sidebar does

The offer is a list of workspaces, so it should read like the one users already
know. Rows are now three tiers -- repo or project, then workspace, then the agent
sessions inside it -- and each agent carries a checkbox rather than its own
button, checked by default, with the footer acting on whatever is ticked.

Reused rather than rebuilt. The host chip is the sidebar's own: its markup lived
inline in the card's meta row, so it moves to a shared component both surfaces
render, and the label comes from getHostContextLabel, which is where "Local Mac"
has always come from. The repo glyph is RepoIconGlyph; a group with no repo uses
the FolderTree the sidebar's own project-group metadata uses. The agent row
reuses AgentIcon, the agent-type label helpers, formatShortTimeAgo and the same
model treatment.

Two things could NOT be reused, and both are deliberate. The sidebar's
CompactAgentRow needs a live pane, tab and status entry, and every chat here is
stopped by definition. And the sidebar has no git-worktree-vs-folder glyph
resolver at all -- both kinds render the same card, and the difference people
read is its status lane choosing GitBranch when a workspace has branch identity;
that single precedent is what the workspace glyph follows.

The model, the execution host and the workspace kind now travel with each
offered chat. All three are read off the durable record the predicate already
holds -- the model through the same normalizer the status feed uses -- so the
glyph is never inferred from a name and no new data source appears. They are
optional on the wire, so an older host still renders a row.

Selection changes which ELIGIBLE chats are acted on, never what is eligible. Ids
are seeded from the host's own answer and intersected back against it before any
call, and the host re-derives the predicate regardless of what it is sent.
Continuing still requires an explicit click, and the automatic path still calls
the reconnect method, which contains no send.

The badge's treatment becomes a variant instead of a pile of overrides, which is
what the design-system gate asks for once the markup is somewhere it can see it.

* fix(native-chat): title a folder workspace group with its project name

A folder workspace's synthetic worktree borrows the `repoId` slot to name the
project group it belongs to, so that field is NEVER null. The reconnect offer
read a non-null `repoId` as proof of a git repo, looked it up in the repos list,
found nothing, and rendered the raw `folder-workspace:<uuid>` string as the group
header. The project glyph written for the no-repo case was unreachable for the
one workspace kind it was meant for, and the string fallback behind it was dead
for the same reason.

The project group name was available all along and the sidebar already titles
these with it, which is what this list is meant to mirror.

Recognising the id now lives beside the code that mints it, so the two cannot
drift: there was no such helper, only forward constructions of the same prefix in
five places. The header choice itself moved into a pure resolver, so the branch
that was wrong is now the branch under test.

The dead fallback string is gone, along with its catalog entries.

* fix(native-chat): offer an accepted send the provider never opened a turn for

QA: a chat that was genuinely working was silently dropped from the offer. The
discriminator was how far the send had progressed -- it was the last chat
prompted before quitting, reachable by quitting a second or two after sending.

Mechanism, reproduced against the predicate. The marker was written while the
send was still pending, so it is submission-shaped. During teardown the dispatch
then settled to `accepted`, which took it out of the pending/unknown branch and
into the follow-forward branch. But the provider died before writing a turn row
for that send, so there was no turn to follow forward TO, and the branch demanded
a proved link before it would answer. Both the no-turn-at-all case and the
newest-turn-belongs-to-an-earlier-exchange case therefore refused.

An accepted send that never became a turn cannot be finished work, because
finishing writes a turn row. The marked send is also the newest work in the
session, so any turn it opened would be the newest turn.

That makes the link unnecessary to prove for a safe answer. When the newest turn
is interrupted or unverifiable the two readings agree: if the row really is this
send's under a key we failed to match, it was cut off; if it belongs to an
earlier exchange, this send opened no turn at all. Either way the work was
interrupted. A journal with no turn row at all is the same case with nothing to
disagree about.

The readings only diverge on a `completed` row, where an unmatched one might be
this very send's finished turn under a key we did not recognise. That stays
refused. Ambiguity resolves to no, because resuming finished work is the one
outcome never worth risking.

* fix: write the grouping separators as escapes so the files stay text

Five separators in the reconnect-offer redesign were written as raw NUL bytes
instead of the `\0` escape. The runtime strings were correct and the app behaved,
but git classifies a file containing a NUL as binary -- so the two central files
of that redesign rendered as "Binary file not shown" in review, and `rg` skipped
them silently, returning no matches rather than an error.

The escape produces the identical string, so the NUL separator is kept: the
previous separator was a space, and a workspace id containing one would corrupt
the join/split pair this grouping depends on.

Nothing could have caught this. Typecheck, lint, the quality gate, the
localization verifiers and the full suite all passed throughout, because none of
them look at file encoding. So this adds a check that does, wired into the
pre-commit hook where it costs nothing and catches the next one at the moment it
is written.

Two files already on main carry a raw NUL for the same reason -- one a template
separator, one a deliberately tricky test alphabet whose neighbours are all
written as escapes. They are grandfathered rather than fixed here, since they
belong to their own change, and the gate fails if the list ever grows or goes
stale.

* fix: parse markers into a domain type, and declare the four restart methods

Two CI failures, both ours.

Static analysis. `Reflect.get` was adopted to clear the casting audit, and the
anti-slop rule forbids it -- the two gates disagree, and the rule text says what
both want: parse dynamic input into a named type once, then read typed fields off
it. Markers re-enter from a file this process may not have written and decide
whether an agent is handed a provider child, so they now go through a single zod
parse. Unknown keys still pass, and a malformed marker is still dropped rather
than thrown, so a bad entry cannot make a user's sessions unreadable. The launch
stamp is parsed the same way, the resume-admission refusal becomes a named error
carrying a typed `owner` instead of a bag assigned onto `new Error`, and the test
harness gets a named journal type instead of reaching into `unknown`.

Cross-version wire. The four restart methods are added to the manifest rather
than the count being bumped, so the suite now exercises them in both skews. They
are bare additions, not capability-negotiated: an unknown RPC method answers
`method_not_found`, which is explicit and visible during negotiation, unlike a
stream opcode that is dropped in silence. The whole `agentSession.*` surface
already sits behind its runtime capability, so an old client is told it does not
exist and never reaches a host method.

The stub's spies stay a flat map because callers iterate it asserting each entry
is a spy that did not run; a composer reassembles the member the host really
exposes. The manifest and its params builders move to their own module, which is
what keeps the suite under its line cap as the surface grows.

Brennan Benson 7f5141ae2d Make the Agent Permissions toggle apply to Codex chat (#20977)
* fix(structured-chat): deliver the permission posture through each transport's own contract

Codex posture moves off app-server argv onto typed `thread/start` and
`thread/resume` params. Manual states `on-request` / `workspace-write`
explicitly instead of omitting the fields, which app-server resolved through the
mirrored config.toml — a Manual thread on a home carrying
`approval_policy = "never"` never prompted.

Claude keeps its owned `--dangerously-skip-permissions` flag through SDK
`extraArgs`; the SDK's typed bypass option emits a newer allow flag that older
user-installed binaries reject.

Posture is re-derived from current settings on every session acquisition.

Brennan Benson c702e77bc7 Stop reading the terminal arguments field on the structured chat route (#20944)
* fix(native-chat): stop reading the terminal arguments field on the structured chat route

Setting Claude's Arguments to "--dangerously-skip-permissions --model Opus" made
every new Claude tab open in the old terminal-backed chat instead of the new
structured one, with nothing on screen to explain why. Removing "--model Opus"
fixed it.

The cause was a whole-string comparison: the configured arguments were checked
against a single blessed value per agent, so any added token at all — including
one the agent supports — stopped the string matching and the launch was demoted.

Structured chat does not run the interactive CLI. It drives Claude through the
Agent SDK and Codex through app-server, and those take narrower option sets that
are versioned separately from the CLI's, so one free-text field cannot have a
guaranteed meaning for all three. The structured route now reads only what it can
actually honour: a replaced launch command, or a launch that names its own working
directory. Terminal launches still apply the field exactly as before.

Permission posture no longer travels as a raw flag. It is derived from the
resolved launch arguments, which is the same fact a terminal launch acts on and
which falls back to the default Orca ships when the field was never touched, so
bypass stays on by default and Manual is still honoured. Claude gets the SDK's
typed permissionMode and allowDangerouslySkipPermissions at query start; Codex
gets its bypass flag placed before the app-server subcommand. Both are re-derived
per acquisition beside the auth policy and environment overlay rather than stored
in the session record, so nothing can disagree with the setting.

Codex also loses the --profile, --add-dir and -c passthrough that reached
app-server through that field. Only the permission posture comes back.

* test(native-chat): pin routing authority on the narrowed feasibility input

The routing-authority pin still named the old bundled blocker and built its
"customized" fixture out of the arguments field, which is no longer a feasibility
input. Both are now the launch command, and arguments and environment are
customized on both passes of the loop, so the flag handed to the shared resolver
tracks the command alone — a caller that resumed reading either one fails here.

No case is dropped and no assertion is relaxed: the blocker list is still
exhaustive and every caller must still honour a refusal from the shared resolver.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 955051ded0 fix(codex): settle a structured send on admission, and stop minting a colliding identity (#20138)
* fix(codex): settle a structured send on admission, and stop minting a colliding identity

Two sends could be written into the journal under one durable identity.

Codex coalesces a mid-turn `turn/start` into the running turn rather than
refusing it -- measured against real `codex app-server` builds 0.147.0,
0.150.1 and 0.153.4, none of which refuse and none of which fire a second
`turn/started`. The dispatch path read the turn id from the turn/start
response and stamped every accepted send `ordinal: 0`. Since a coalesced
send gets the running turn's id back, two submissions persisted the same
`providerItemId`. That string is durable, and it is the key a restore uses
to match a submission against provider history, so the second message's real
history row matched nothing and rendered as an extra bubble on replay.

On 0.147.0 it is worse than a collision: the coalesced response returns a
turn id that never starts and never completes, so the persisted key named a
turn absent from history and NEITHER message could match.

Identity is now minted from the echoed user message at `identityFor` -- the
single point that mints the journal row's own identity -- so the settled key
is by construction the one replay computes, rather than a parallel
calculation that can drift.

Dispatch returns `admitted` when the transport write completes; identity
settles on the echo through a channel that did not previously exist for
Codex. Waiters are keyed by client message id instead of being shifted off
the front of an array by arrival order, and they are cleared on session
close and child exit -- previously a timeout was the only thing that ever
ended one.

`TURN_ID_WAIT_MS` is deleted. It was never reachable on any build measured:
`readCodexTurnId` returns non-null on all three, so the 10s wait never
fired. The comment justifying it claimed older builds acknowledge before the
id exists, which no tested build does.

Three comments asserting Codex answers a mid-turn send with `turn already
running` are corrected. Their only backing was a test fixture inventing that
error string. The correction is factual only -- every changed line in
`src/main/runtime/orchestration/` is a comment, and mid-turn delivery is
still refused for both providers. Whether that policy is right is a separate
question; it was resting on a false premise.

Known gap, stated rather than implied: this prevents new collisions and does
not repair journals already written with a colliding or phantom key. Those
conversations keep duplicating on restore. Repairing them means re-matching
persisted submissions against provider history and rewriting
`providerItemId` -- which is what `journal-submission-reconciler.ts` is
written for, and it still has no production caller.

* test(codex): drop the synchronous-accept contract and the colliding `:0` from the integration fakes

Three tests in the structured-session integration suites encoded the dispatch
contract this branch replaces, and two of them pinned the defect it fixes.

They asserted `agentSession.send` answers `dispatchState: 'accepted'` carrying
`providerItemId: codex:<thread>:<turn>:0` at send time. That ordinal was never
observed; it was stamped on every accepted send, which is exactly the collision
this branch removes -- a send coalesced into a running turn is answered with the
running turn's id, so two submissions persisted one durable key.

The visible failure was a 30s timeout rather than a failed assertion. The fake
client advertised no `agent-session.pending-send-result.v1`, and without it the
host holds the reply until the send settles: a shim for clients too old to
render a pending bubble. The fake provider then echoed the user message with no
`clientId`, so nothing could correlate that echo back to the submission, and the
wait ran to its own 30s ceiling. Real Codex sends `clientId` on that echo, and
the fake now does too, which is what makes it a model of the provider rather
than a sketch of one.

The identity assertion is kept rather than dropped. Each send now asserts
`pending` with no identity at admission, then asserts the submission settles
`accepted` at `codex:<thread>:<turn>:0` once the echo lands. Same ordinal, but
earned from `identityFor` on the echo -- the key a replay recomputes -- instead
of guessed from the turn/start response. Ablated: removing `clientId` from the
two echoes leaves both submissions `pending` and fails both assertions, so the
assertion is load-bearing and not satisfied by something incidental.

Both suites' client fixtures now advertise the capability set the desktop
renderer sends in `src/main/ipc/runtime.ts`, which is what these suites mean by
a client. The older-client settlement wait keeps its own coverage in
`src/main/runtime/rpc/methods/structured-agent-session.test.ts`.

`structured-agent-session-runtime-exit.test.ts` asserts `pending` for the same
reason; it drives the host directly, so it never took the compatibility path,
and what proves delivery there is still the turn the reacquired provider starts.

The replay suite's "without dispatching it twice" property is untouched: one
`turn/start` call, one replayed ledger row.

* fix(codex): preserve unsettled dispatch correlations

* test(codex): type the dispatch fixtures instead of asserting over them

main's new casting gate (#20367 base) flags type assertions on changed
lines. Replace them with checked types: the recording sink already
satisfies its interface, both CodexSession fixtures are now annotated and
carry real collaborators, the settlement assertion compares whole
identities, and the integration helper reads submissions through the
host's public journalSnapshot instead of its private session map.

* fix(test): merge the duplicate doubt-reasons import the merge left behind

Both sides added an import from journal-dispatch-doubt-reasons and the
merge kept both statements, which the whole-repo native plugin gate
refuses under --deny-warnings.

* test(codex): a Fast mode turn is admitted, not accepted

#20506 landed its Fast mode tests against the dispatch contract this
branch replaces: a Codex send now returns admitted and settles its
identity on the provider echo. The tier assertions the test exists for
are untouched.
