Neil 1cc2a2afd8 refactor(shared): group remote runtime shared-control lifecycle (#32977) 2026-10-23 17:04:58 -07:00
Brennan Benson 8174208436 fix(terminal): every start in a deleted folder opens at the workspace root and says so (#30747)
* fix(terminal): start every terminal in the workspace root when its saved folder is gone, and say so

A terminal whose start folder was deleted opened at the workspace root only
when the window started it; the CLI, phone restore, orchestration and other
host starts failed with the raw "Working directory ... does not exist" error,
because the renderer had to opt in with a cwdFallback flag.

The execution host now makes that decision for every start that may create a
process (anything but a known live pane), with no caller flag. The fallback is
reported only when a process was proven started at the requested folder, so a
reattach or a crash restore in its recovered folder never claims "workspace
root", and only then does the saved start folder heal. A recovered folder that
was itself deleted yields to the request's resolved folder.

The notice reaches each caller through surfaces it already has: the window's
terminal line (now also written when a host-created tab attaches, and on a
restored reattach), the agent.launch warning (also for callers that show the
tab themselves), and a toast when a phone tap restores the tab.

* fix: recover terminal startup folders without healing unreadable paths

* fix: preserve saved start folder when revealing fallback terminals

* Reuse saved-tab lookup in cwd persistence test

* Import mobile tab activation result from its contract

* Check startup fallback response without a test cast

* Update expectation to catch up with accepted saved-folder metadata

* Preserve inconclusive WSL directory evidence when saving startup folders

* fix: project restored terminal ids for handle consumers

* test: return void from launch parity cleanup

* test: retain saved folder in shared spawn expectation

Jinwoo HongandE2E Test c335070de8 Layout-owner build: main answers terminal questions from its own layout (A1, dark) (#31187)
* wip(layout): applyDefaultTabs command in the layout model (dark)

* wip(layout): applyDefaultTabs takes the window's proposed ids; main refuses a taken one

* wip(layout): main closes or keeps an exited split pane by the window's rule (dark)

* wip(layout): a create or split sent again after its close is refused (dark)

* wip: typed test doubles

* wip(layout): main writes a worktree's default tabs in one command and starts them, window or none (dark; twin e)

* wip(layout): main writes a worktree's default tabs in one command and starts them, window or none (dark; twin e)

* wip(layout): main provisions setup and default tabs even when the agent fails to start; no window takes over (dark)

* wip(layout): pane start status in frames; a failed start keeps its pane; a terminal close stands after a failed write (dark)

* wip: lint fixes (max-lines, test throws)

* test(layout): a terminal close stands after a real failed profile write; switch off still refuses

* fix(layout): checked types in the close-failure rule and its tests

* fix(layout): a failed start keeps its pane whatever failed; default tabs start once; a tab's last pane keeps its card (dark)

* test(layout): the agent's kept pane counts as the workspace's terminal; main starts it whatever failed

* fix(layout): the switch-off create path gains no await

* fix(layout): a failed start never writes back a pane the user closed (dark)

* fix(layout): a failed start's pane goes through main's create rules, so a closed tab stays closed (dark)

* test(layout): D1a's switch-on close tests assert the intent main receives (both builds)

* test(layout): the close fixture answers main's command without naming the method

* fix(layout): a re-created pane binds as designed; the id-only ratchet reads a shared import (dark)

* fix(layout): a pane's start status may sit on a pane still bound to its old terminal (dark)

* fix(layout): a pane's start status ends when its pane binds again by any path (dark)

* test(layout): same-id restore ends a status; a replayed split brings back a closed pane by design

* test(layout): terminal reply fixtures captured from the window-owned build, and main's switch-on proofs

* wip(layout): main's terminal surface index feeds the runtime graph (dark)

* wip(layout): main's panes stand in for the window's terminal list (dark)

* test(layout): the window sends main-listed panes as mount facts (dark)

* test(layout): surface proofs use public runtime calls

* chore: lint

* feat(layout): close by handle closes in main's layout; the close-time relist goes (dark)

* feat(layout): main's binding outranks a caller's pane claim on the terminal record (dark)

* test(layout): window-list tests stay on the rollback build; switch-on mount-fact cases (dark)

* wip(layout): main's terminal index reads E1's shared projection and follows its operation ends (dark)

* refactor(layout): the main-surfaces host lives beside the session-tabs readers, keeping the graph file under its line cap (dark)

* fix(layout): main's panes skip the window-era membership fence, follow workspace routing, and list a terminal when it registers; window close only hands the graph back (dark)

* refactor(runtime): explicit-close PTY stops move unchanged to their own module, for the file's line cap

* test(layout): the cold-restore table runs in a layout-owner build too: one push per registration

* test(layout): the parked and automation pane tests assert the same window report in both builds (mount facts with the switch on)

* chore: one layout-owner switch import after the restack on D1a

* feat(layout): main's terminal.list rows carry the host's verdict; a pane with a status is never live (dark)

* chore(layout): fit main's surfaces under the lint gates after the D1a restack

* feat(layout): every pane status D1a publishes keeps a row from reading live; remote host answers pass through (dark)

* feat(layout): a drag-out moves main's own binding and refuses the home copy's last pane; the window's terminal claim is not consulted (L127, dark)

* fix(layout): a tab close by a starting pane's handle stops the tab's terminals; a starting pane is never exited on the inventory alone; terminal.list lists every saved pane main owns; the pane claim lookup leaves the output path (dark)

* fix(terminal): keep shipped exit and default-tab behaviour with the layout switch on

An exited pane closes through the legacy retirement unless the keep rule holds; the
default tab's title and color still reach the window and the phone's live tabs.

* fix(terminal): one id guard for every pane write; keep panes on an unvouched -1

Main's taken and closed-id guard now runs where every pane write goes, so a runtime create
replayed after its tab closed is refused before it spawns. An exit code nothing vouches for
keeps the pane, as the window does; a kept pane sends the phone no retirement. Converts the
switch-on tests that asserted the deleted window hand-off and title bridge.

* fix(terminal): keep the closed-tab guard on every pane write, held-id checks on client commands

A paired host starts each pane of a client's tab as a create under the tab's id, so a held tab
id is refused only for a client's own layout command.

* fix(terminal): a provider-reported -1 keeps the pane, as the window does

Only a requested stop or a host-confirmed death closes a pane on a negative exit code. Pins that
the closed-tab guard never fires in the shipped build.

* chore(terminal): satisfy the exhaustive-switch and test typing checks

* test(terminal): give the replay test's live process a cwd

* fix(layout): main's index reads routing only for a workspace two partitions hold, the fence reads ownership once, a legacy pane keeps its claim; switch-on tests assert main's answers after a window closes (dark)

* refactor(runtime): a worktree stop's terminal collection moves unchanged to its own module, for the file's line cap

* fix(layout): main's index routes every workspace as the layout stream does, re-reading routing only on a write or a terminal registration; a worktree stop names every terminal main binds; a starting pane is unverifiable (dark)

* feat(layout): every pane status main publishes keeps a row from reading live; a resuming pane is unverifiable like a starting one (dark)

Jinwoo HongandE2E Test 03e9a03e9e feat(layout-owner): main opens CLI and phone files itself, in the window's live group (dark) (#31123)
Behind ORCA_LAYOUT_OWNER_IS_MAIN, a CLI or phone file open is applied by main as an
openEditorTab layout command, so a host with no window can open files. The window
reports each workspace's active group as an optional view fact on syncWindowGraph,
and shows main's tab once the frame that draws it arrives. Editor language
detection moves to shared so main can name a file's language.

Brennan Benson 64e544a442 feat(mobile): Resume in New CLI from a phone chat tab (#29783)
* feat(mobile): Resume in New CLI from a phone chat tab

A chat tab on the phone had only Close in its long-press menu, so a chat
that would not load left no way to reach its conversation. The phone now
offers Resume in New CLI, like the desktop tab menu: the chat's host
prepares the conversation and the phone opens a copy in a new terminal tab.

The resume and fork startup builders move to src/shared so the desktop and
the phone build the same command.

* test(mobile): type the fake terminal create instead of casting its calls

* fix(mobile): pass the host's fork source as is; match the quoted args in the test

* test(mobile): give the fake host client the untyped mock the other client fakes use

* style: format the shared resume builder and phone fork files

* Fix mobile chat CLI fork creation on owning host

* Fix mobile chat fork lint and split create owner helpers

* Keep chat fork beside phone anchor across tab groups

* Combine mobile terminal runtime type imports

* Repair mobile create CI contracts after chat fork extraction

* Classify chat fork preflight refusals and preserve mobile create recordings

* Keep route-owned create cleanup quiet after unmount

* Preserve typed runtime repair refusal in chat fork preflight

* Preserve checked store through mobile chat fork preflight

* Register mobile chat fork runtime fixture before test setup

* Remove unused mobile create recording value

* style(mobile): format the chat fork create files; move fork reply messages into the fork feedback module

Formatting pushed the create hook past its line limit, so the fork-only reply message, partial-success warning and host capability check now live beside the other fork messages. Same order and copy as before.

* Keep quick command mutation aligned with formatted request

* Keep mobile chat CLI forks in terminal view

* Pass mobile chat resolution its existing controller arguments

* Match the mobile create fixture mock layout

* Keep mobile chat CLI forks open when placement is unavailable

* Brace placement contract fixture checks

* test(mobile): keep the prompt controller mock under its line limit after the main merge

* Expose pane admission in the runtime test fixture type

* Complete the chat fork contract controller fixture

Jinwoo Hong 7cf09809f6 fix(mobile): group by Project with the desktop sidebar's own code (#28850)
* fix(mobile): phone server rows follow the desktop's other-client and sleeping filters

A phone created through a desktop now records whom it acted for, so the
desktop's Hide other-client workspaces filter keeps the user's own phone
workspaces (locally and on servers) and hides only other people's.
The desktop relay marks each server row its sidebar would hide, and the
rows its own browser or chat tabs keep awake; the phone applies both.

* test(e2e): dedupe sidebar row ids in the visibility spec

* fix(mobile): address review: owner naming, old-server relayed phones, scope trim

* refactor: move the sidebar's project section grouping into shared

The project sections the desktop sidebar draws under Group by Project are
built from the project/setup projection, the per-host catalog fold, the
endpoint host stamp, and the section labelling and ordering rules. Move the
pure parts of each into src/shared (no behaviour change) so the paired phone
can call the same code instead of guessing the grouping.

* fix(mobile): group by Project with the desktop sidebar's own sections

The phone grouped Project sections by repo display name, so it merged
checkouts the desktop keeps apart (several local stablyai/orca checkouts,
or a server's copy) and split what the desktop merges. The phone now reads
each host's repo.list, project.list and projectHostSetup.list (the desktop's
own and each server's through the relay), folds them with the renderer's
shared catalog fold and projection merge, and builds sections with the
desktop's shared grouping, labelling and ordering code. Keys, labels and
Recent order equal the sidebar's; a host that predates the project lists
gets the repo-derived projection, as the desktop does.

Header colour and icon come from the section's anchor repo and rows from
their own repo by id, as on the desktop. The repo filter lists every
catalog repo by id per host instead of merging same-named repos. Group-by
labels read Project and None. project.list and projectHostSetup.list are
routed for paired phones (read-only, workspace permission).

* refactor(mobile): record a phone's owner as creator and fold desktop tab activity into the host flag

A phone now records its owner as the creator (this host for a directly
paired phone, the relaying desktop for a delegated one), so the shared rule
is unchanged and onBehalfOf is gone. The relay ORs the desktop's saved
browser/chat tabs into hasHostSidebarActivity, so the phone's status dot
follows too, and local worktree.ps counts the same signals. The old-server
fallback is removed.

* test(e2e): poll the phone and the sidebar together in the visibility spec

* fix(mobile): one Project-section builder for desktop and phone, with the desktop's repo order

Review fixes. The sidebar's buildOrderedGroups now calls the shared
buildProjectSections for Group by Project (notice and pending repos are
optional inputs), so desktop and phone run one function. The phone ranks
manual header order by its folded catalog order, which is each host's
repo.list order with the desktop's own repos first, as the renderer loads
them; only the desktop's cross-host manualRepoOrder (pairing-local) is
unknown to it. The projection selector is now a memo over the shared
resolver. A transient project-list failure keeps that host's last catalog;
only forbidden or method_not_found falls back to the repo-derived
projection. Catalog rows are checked on every member grouping reads, and
the parity test answers the renderer's real catalog fetch, includes a
server's own project rows, and fixes Manual and Recent orders that differ.

* fix(mobile): use the repo-derived catalog until a host's project lists first answer

* fix(mobile): the desktop serves its sidebar's Project catalog instead of the phone fetching it

The phone fetched repo.list, project.list and projectHostSetup.list from
the desktop and every relay-ready server each minute and folded them
itself, so rows from offline or older servers fell back to repo sections
and keys moved on cold start.

The desktop renderer now publishes the inputs its own Project headers use
(state.repos in sidebar order, the projection selector's projects and
setups, projectOrderBy) on the runtime window graph it already sends to
main, only when they change. Main keeps the last one and answers it on a
new paired-desktop read, mobileRelay.projectSections. The phone reads it
with its repo metadata and groups with the shared builder; a desktop that
predates the read (forbidden or method_not_found) leaves the phone grouping
rows by repo from the desktop's repo.list, and a transient failure keeps
the last catalog. The payload carries only grouping and label fields, no
hooks, credentials or uploaded icons. The phone's own catalog fetching and
its project.list/projectHostSetup.list routes are removed.

* fix(mobile): keep uploaded repo icons on the phone, and isolate the snapshot tests

* test(e2e): the desktop window serves its sidebar's Project catalog to the phone

* chore(i18n): regenerate the runtime English catalog (drift already on main)

* fix(mobile): read the Project catalog as its own request, outside the recorded repo-metadata flow

The extra read inside the repo-metadata refresh stalled its recorded RPC
sequence. It now runs beside it with its own throttle. The repo-metadata
goldens are re-recorded for the intended state change: the name-keyed
colour, icon and id maps became desktopRepos.

* fix(mobile): fetch the Project catalog at once when the screen moves to another host

The refresh window is now kept per client, so a host screen reused for another desktop doesn't wait out the previous host's 60s window before showing its Project headers.

Jinwoo HongandClaude 24bda717f4 fix(terminal): a slow window no longer makes orca terminal create fail and then duplicate (#28158)
* fix(terminal): start CLI-created workspace terminals in main so a slow window cannot duplicate them

A focused or interactive-agent `orca terminal create` asked the window to make the
terminal and reported failure after 10 s, while the window still made it later; a
retry then made a second one. Main now starts every terminal that names a workspace
and shows it in the window best-effort, as it already did for every other create.

* fix(terminal): start a main-created terminal at its worktree's measured pane size

An unfocused CLI agent opens as an inactive tab that is not resized until the user
opens it, so starting it at 120x40 left its output wrapped to 120 columns. Start it at
the size of the pane active in the worktree's active group, where the new tab opens;
fall back to 120x40 only when that worktree has no measured pane.

* fix(cli): keep sending rendererBacked for hosts before v1.4.211

Hosts without #22384 leave a background-started agent's startup queries unanswered,
so a new CLI talking to an old, still-running host must keep routing interactive agents
to the window. Newer hosts ignore the flag.

* fix(terminal): start host-created terminals at the measured size of their tab group

The window publishes, on its graph sync to main only, the grid an unsplit terminal
would get in each shown tab group, computed by one pure function that mirrors
FitAddon.proposeDimensions and is pinned against it; a ResizeObserver on each group
body republishes when that grid changes. Main starts a new terminal at the size of the
group it opens in (the named group, else the active one) and falls back to 120x40 only
when no window measured it. This replaces the active-pane lookup, which mis-sized split
groups and could read a phone's fitted size.

* fix(terminal): measure group sizes from an untitled default-font pane and use the live active group

A pane with a title or banner pushes its xterm host down, which skewed every group's
row count; skip it like a zoomed pane. Size from the window's latest published active
group, which is where its reveal places the tab, before the saved session's.

* fix(terminal): size a CLI agent in a workspace the window has not shown

Brennan Benson b3b6c5dc13 Give native chat names one source for tabs, sidebar and AI Vault (list and search) (#25986)
* Give native chat names one renderer source and drop Vault's name repair copies

The host's saved conversation name now rides the structured session status
feed, which already exists per host, is keyed by the durable session id, and
keeps a closed chat's summary. Tab strip, sidebar rows and AI Vault (list and
search) read it through one hook and one display order (tab alias, saved name,
host label). Vault no longer copies names into its cached results, so the
projection, recovery and pending-title modules and their tab-snapshot lanes are
removed. Indexed search hits now carry the native owner and saved name from the
host that indexed them.

* Type the sidebar name test fixture without an assertion

* Keep Vault search working when the chat host will not install

Naming and owning search hits is bookkeeping: if the native chat host fails to
install, return the plain hits instead of failing the search. The runtime RPC
only installs the host for clients that will receive the owners.

* Publish chat names to the feed independently of the tab retitle

A failed feed publication no longer skips retitling the open tab. The publish
now lives in the naming deps, where a test covers it.

* Note why the status feed must keep closed chats' summaries

* Bound names and owner ids that come from a paired host

Drop a published chat name the record store would refuse, and cap a search
hit's owner workspace id at the same length the list row and record use.

* Let native chat search hits from a paired host open their chat

A paired host's search hits carry no resume command, so the row disabled
every open action even for a native chat it can open through its owner, as
its list row does.

* Ignore workspace ids that name object members in tab lookups

A paired host's row or search hit could carry a workspace id such as
"constructor", which read an Object.prototype member as a tab list and broke
the render. The shared tab index now reads only own workspace entries.

Brennan Benson ab6389045e fix(native-chat): start Windows chats without reading process creation times (#25718)
* fix(native-chat): start Windows chats without reading process creation times

Native chat on Windows refused to start ("Orca can't run this agent in a chat
here") whenever the process-table addon could not report process creation
times. Chat never needed them; only the bookkeeping around stopping the agent
did.

Windows now follows the common pattern: Stop ends the agent's tree with
`taskkill /T /F` on the child Orca still holds, and reports the tree gone only
when taskkill exits 0. A saved pid is never signalled after a restart.

- Remove the Claude and Codex location gate and the Codex launch refusal.
- A start time that cannot be read is recorded as unknown instead of refusing
  the session; recovery already releases such an owner without signalling it.
- Delete Claude's Windows creation-time descendant snapshot and its verifier.
- Codex's Windows teardown reports the real taskkill outcome.
- The renderer no longer waits on the capability flag; the host keeps
  publishing it for older clients (temporary).

* fix(native-chat): treat a Windows Claude exit after stdin end as a proven close

On Windows an idle Claude leaves on its own once its stdin ends, so every Stop
and close read as unproven: live background work settled as unknown and the
trace logged a close that "did not finish cleanly". As with the Codex close,
that exit is now the close and Orca makes no claim about processes Claude
started; a forced close still rests on taskkill's own report.

Also drop the Settings clause about Windows needing process start times, and
fix comments and the tracked process-enumeration doc that still described the
removed start-time gate and descendant snapshot.

* fix(native-chat): renew a held child's lease without a PID probe

An owner recorded without a process start time could never renew: the renewer
re-proves every live owner by PID identity, and with no start time and no
spawn-token echo that probe is indeterminate. The lease's last renewal then
stayed at the spawn, so a turn cut by an Orca crash was dated to its own start,
and every tick logged a failed renewal and split the batch into one store
transaction per chat.

The runtime now renews a lease for a child it still holds at the record's
fence and whose exit it has not received, recorded as a `held-child` match.
Receipt of the exit ends that proof before the exit is settled, and a restart
holds no child, so a dead owner's lease still expires and restart adjudication
is unchanged. Records this runtime does not hold keep the PID probe.

Also correct the identity probe's comment about shipped addons and note that
recovery's stop ladder is POSIX-only.

* fix(native-chat): keep a failed Windows taskkill unproven across a retried close

A Windows close counts Claude leaving on its own after its stdin ends as the
close. That shortcut also caught a retried close whose first attempt forced a
taskkill that failed: once the root exited, the retry returned true and the
failure read as a proven close. The tree reaper now records whether a reap
ever reached the live root, here, on an earlier close or from a transport
failure, and the shortcut applies only when none did; otherwise taskkill's
verdict stands and no new taskkill runs against the exited root.

Pin the platform on the existing tests that assume the POSIX close, and say
what `exit-proven` means on Windows in the acquisition-failure docs.

* fix(native-chat): derive a held child's liveness from the adapter's own handle

Lease renewal trusted a held child until the host settled its exit, and the
host hears of an exit late: Claude runs its close ladder and a store write
first, unexpected exits wait on one delivery chain shared by every chat, and a
Claude close that cannot prove its tree publishes nothing at all. A dead root
could keep renewing through that window, so a crash in it dated the cut turn
late. Renewal now asks the adapter, which owns the process handle and sees the
exit first: a child is held only while it is on record at the lease's fence
and its adapter still runs that exact acquisition with no root exit seen. An
adapter that cannot answer falls back to the PID probe. The stored
exit-received mark is gone.

The held-child read is now required by the runtime state and the renewer, and
a host-level test drives renewal through the real host wiring.

Jinwoo Hong e2ccf52dc3 fix(remote-runtime): a paired terminal accepts input again after its host app relaunches (#25736)
* test(remote-runtime): reproduce dead input after a paired host relaunch

A relaunched desktop host accepts RPC before its renderer publishes a window
graph. During that gap session.tabs.list answers with an unpublished empty
graph (publicationEpoch "none", snapshotVersion 0, tabs []). The client's
reconnect inventory treats that as removal and retires the pane
(retireRemoteTerminalId(-1)): the pane goes to "ended", the reconnect overlay
disappears, and keystrokes never reach the surviving daemon PTY.

Both tests are red on main by design; they are the repro for the fix.

- e2e: holds the relaunched host's runtime:syncWindowGraph so the client's
  reconnect deterministically meets the unpublished host (4/4 red).
- unit: transport-level repro of the same retirement (red in ~2s).
- restart helper gains a beforeFirstWindow hook; LaunchOptions moves to its
  own module to stay under the max-lines budget.

* fix(remote-runtime): a paired terminal survives its host app relaunching

After the host app quit and relaunched (daemon still running), a paired
client's terminal cleared its reconnect overlay and then ignored all input.
The relaunched host answers session.tabs.list before its renderer publishes,
with a synthesized empty frame. A paired client sees that frame through its
navigation projection as epoch "none:client-navigation", which the shared
"does this frame answer for the worktree" check did not recognise, so the
pane read it as removal and retired itself.

- hostSnapshotAffirmsWorktreeContents treats the client-projected placeholder
  as no answer at any version (the projection adds its navigation revision).
- The reconnect inventory keeps polling on such a frame instead of retiring;
  a published frame lacking the surface still retires the pane.
- Pushed frames that affirm nothing no longer report the surface absent.
- When the bounded inventory wait ends without evidence, the first published
  snapshot carrying the same handle now reattaches the pane, rather than
  waiting out the ~3 minute auto-recovery deadline.

Client-only: the host already labels the frame, old hosts send the same
frame, and the wire is unchanged. The e2e helper drops its type assertions.

* refactor(remote-runtime): simplify the host-relaunch reconnect fix

- One epoch rule: the placeholder epoch, bare or with the shared
  client-navigation suffix, is no answer. Hosts only ever send it at
  version 0, so the version check is dropped.
- Unpublished frames are dropped where pushed snapshots enter, instead of
  a nullable per-subscriber update.
- A published same-handle snapshot fires the parked retry through
  retryNow(), which now also fires a retry parked while still
  'recovering' (nothing is in flight then). This replaces state-reading
  wiring in the listener and lets online/resume fire it too.
- The Windows e2e runs the fixture through PowerShell's call operator.

* test(remote-runtime): prove the e2e hold beat the relaunched host's first publish

The spec now asks the held host for its tab list and requires the
unpublished placeholder before releasing, so a hold installed too late
fails instead of passing against unfixed code. The helper keeps its gate
in a typed global instead of Reflect lookups.

* fix(remote-runtime): keep a fenced handle's parked retry revivable

A retry parked for a handle that needs a replacement was consumed by an
early external trigger and then refused by the epoch's snapshot-wait
guard, leaving nothing to revive the pane. An external trigger now takes
over that snapshot wait as a fresh attempt, and a republished fenced
handle no longer fires the retry. Also refreshes comments that still
paired the placeholder epoch with version 0.

* fix(remote-runtime): a host answers an empty worktree for real once it has published

The host sent its unpublished placeholder for any worktree it had no
entry for, including one its window had never opened, long after
startup. With the placeholder now read as "ask me later", a paired client
opening such a worktree never got its first terminal.

The host now sends the placeholder only until its graph first publishes.
Afterwards a worktree with no tabs gets a real empty answer, and a client
that was told "ask me later" during startup is sent that answer once on
publication. Against an older host the client withholds the automatic
first terminal for such a worktree, which the user can still create.

A host push now fires only a parked retry, never cutting a scheduled
backoff short.

* chore(reliability-gates): reference the empty-worktree tests in gate commands

* test(remote-runtime): find the never-opened worktree by repo id on every platform

Brennan Benson 6e7e964705 feat(orchestration): tell each agent its own orchestration address (#22636)
* feat(orchestration): report the caller's host-resolved orchestration address in orca status

orca status --json gains a caller block: the calling agent's address as the
host resolved it from the identity its environment carries. A structured
session is session:<id>; a terminal agent is its handle, with whether the host
still knows it. A session the host refuses reports that refusal instead.

The host answers through a new read-only orchestration.callerShow, so the
session claim runs through the same dispatch-entry resolver every verb uses.
An older host leaves caller unresolved. The help footer and the run/check
specs stop describing identity only in terminal terms.

* docs(orchestration): tell agents their address and give chat coordinators a non-waiting loop

The orchestration guide now states that a chat session's address is
session:<id> (never the provider's id), that orca status --json reports it,
and that no caller flag should name another agent. A consuming check no
longer tells every caller to name itself with --terminal. A chat coordinator
starts its wave, ends the turn, and on each turn Orca starts for new mail
runs a non-waiting check and ack; it never blocks in check --wait. The guide
also names ORCA_CLI_COMMAND as the executable in chat sessions.

* feat(native-chat): add Copy Orchestration Address to a structured chat's context menu

Copies session:<id>, the Orca-minted address other agents message the chat
by. The existing Copy Session ID still copies the provider's id and is left
as is; the new action is labelled so the two cannot be confused. Strings are
added to every locale catalog.

* feat(orchestration): tell every dispatched worker its own orchestration address

The worker preamble names the coordinator's address rather than a terminal
handle, and states the worker's own address. A structured worker is told it
is session:<id>, that its coordinator reaches it there or at its dispatch
mailbox, and that mail arriving while it is idle starts a new turn. Its
commands invoke the CLI through ORCA_CLI_COMMAND in its own shell's form, the
same rendering the pointer turn uses, because a bare orca in a login shell can
reach a different Orca.

* docs(orchestration): give the ORCA_CLI_COMMAND form for POSIX shells and PowerShell

A chat session's shell reads the variable as "$ORCA_CLI_COMMAND" in a POSIX
shell (Git Bash included) and as & $env:ORCA_CLI_COMMAND in PowerShell, the
same two forms the pointer turn and worker preamble render. The chat
coordinator loop now runs the check its pointer turn names.

* docs(orchestration): say that /clear gives a chat a new address and Orca moves its Runs

* fix(orchestration): keep CLI resolution in the shared skill stub and the orchestration kernel in budget

The guide-contract tests own two rules this PR broke: only the shared skill
stub may describe how to resolve the CLI, and the always-loaded orchestration
kernel stays within 202 lines. The ORCA_CLI_COMMAND text moves to the stub's
resolver block, which now covers chat sessions and login shells beside WSL and
gives the POSIX and PowerShell forms; every skill projection and the bundle
manifest are regenerated. The kernel keeps one line each for the caller's
address, the environment-resolved check caller and the chat coordinator's
non-waiting loop; the loop steps and the address details move to the
coordinator-loop and messaging references. The two kernel pins now assert the
new check contract and refuse the old --terminal <your_handle> shape.

* fix(orchestration): refuse a blocking check --wait from a native chat session

A chat runs turn by turn through a shell tool with its own timeout, so a
blocking wait is killed mid-wait and retried. The host now refuses it with
wait_requires_terminal and the turn-loop recovery, keyed on the session's
lease: a session a terminal view holds still runs in a PTY and may block.

* fix(orchestration): resolve orca status's caller with the verbs' ladder, host-side

callerShow now answers a terminal caller the way the coordinator verbs act:
the carried handle while it is live, else the handle its pane was reminted
as. The CLI always asks, so the host decides that a process has no identity
from the same envelope every verb sends; a pane key alone now resolves.

* fix(orchestration): show a structured worker as session:<id> wherever agents read mail

A structured worker was session:<id> in orca status and its preamble, but
structworker_<uuid> in check rows, banners, reply hints, its own check label
and a sub-worker's coordinator line. The minted handle is now only the
mailbox key: mailbox reads, the check label and preamble coordinator lines
spell the worker session:<id>, which the host binds back to that mailbox.
Send receipts still echo the stored row, whose sender key worker_done
settlement matches.

* fix(orchestration): teach a chat worker the turn loop and pin preamble parity at the contract

The worker preamble was byte-identical across modes except its address, so a
chat worker was taught a 600s blocking ask its shell tool kills before the
message ID for --resume prints, heartbeat exemptions for check --wait, and to
keep a shell open. Parity now pins the contract (sections, verbs, flags,
lifecycle ids); interaction discipline follows the mode: a chat asks with a
5s wait and ends its turn, owns sub-workers through the turn loop, and names
itself session:<id> in every command. The guide says a chat's address
survives /clear and that Orca refuses a chat's check --wait.

* test(orchestration): pass the db to preamble delivery and fence a terminal-view waiter

The coordinator line maps a structured coordinator's handle through the
orchestration db, so delivery takes it from its caller. The consumer-fencing
waiter test now waits as a terminal-view session, the only session kind that
may still block in check --wait.

* test(orchestration): read the Run id with the fixture's checked accessor

* feat(orchestration): copy a chat's conversation address, which /clear keeps

Copy Orchestration Address copied session:<live id>. A chat's address is its
conversation's, derived by the host from the session records, so the menu now
asks the host for it at copy time through orchestration.sessionAddress, the
same derivation a verb acting as that session binds to. A host that predates
the method has no /clear lineage, so there the live id is the address. The
guide's /clear text says the address survives and nothing moves.

* test(orchestration): pin that a cleared chat's successor copies its conversation's root address

* test(orchestration): give the mode-opacity fixture's record store the listing a lineage lookup reads

A structured worker's agent-visible address now resolves through its conversation's lineage,
which lists the session records; the fixture's partial store lacked that listing, so the
sub-worker start failed at dispatch input.

* refactor(orchestration): format a chat's copied and reported address from its root Orca session id

Carries the Orca session id rename into the self-address surfaces.
orchestration.sessionAddress, the copy action's fallback, callerShow and the address a
structured worker is shown now format `session:<id>` from the conversation's bare
root Orca session id with formatOrcaSessionAddress, and ids arriving as strings are
checked with isOrcaSessionId first. The CLI status line, the check caller label and
the dispatch preamble spell the prefix from the one exported constant.

* refactor(orchestration): resolve a session's reported address through the party resolver, and refuse every session's check --wait

- orchestration.sessionAddress, and the agent-visible spelling of a structured
  worker, resolve through the party resolver, so they format the lineage root
  the one id hook derives; sessionAddress.sessionId is classified as a target.
- With the terminal handoff gone every structured session runs turn by turn, so
  check --wait is refused for any session caller, a worker included, and the
  session caller no longer carries its lease's runtime kind.
- The coordinator loop no longer mentions a terminal view, and the messaging
  reference says a chat takes messages but is refused as a Dispatch assignee.

* fix(orchestration): cap a session caller's blocking wait below its shell tool instead of refusing it

A chat or structured worker runs each command under its provider's shell-tool timeout, so check
--wait was refused for every session caller and chats were taught a separate loop. The host now
caps check --wait and ask for a session caller below that timeout (Codex 10s one-shot exec
default, Claude Code Bash 120s) and answers the normal timed-out result, so the terminal
coordinator loop runs unchanged in a chat. A terminal caller's wait is untouched.

* refactor(orchestration): teach a chat worker the terminal worker's preamble, byte for byte but the address

One preamble for both modes: the chat variant (short ask, end your turn, this chat stays
available, ORCA_CLI_COMMAND invocation) is deleted. A structured worker's only difference is its
address, session:<id>; the byte-parity test between modes is restored with just that substituted.

* docs(orchestration): drop every chat-specific instruction; name the address once, generically

The guide, its references, the shared CLI-resolution stub and the help return to main's text,
with one kernel line saying `orca status --json` shows your address (the kernel stays at main's
length). The status caller block reports only the opaque address, the same shape for a chat and
a terminal agent. Guides regenerated.

* test(orchestration): pin that a chat and a terminal agent see the same preamble, pointer and guide

* test(orchestration): key the wait-cap fixture's records by plain session id strings

* chore(i18n): add the copy-address strings at the head of native-chat, clear of main's catalog edits

* test(orchestration): fail the capped-wait test on the settle, not on the test timeout

* test(orchestration): keep main's takeover assertions on a session coordinator's waiting check

With the session wait capped rather than refused, the test main extended runs as it is: the restack re-added the shorter pre-main version over it.

* fix(orchestration): show a /clear-ed chat its lineage root's address everywhere it reads its own

check labelled a session caller with session:<live id>, while orca status and the
preamble show the conversation's root. The CLI cannot read the lineage, so the label
now comes from the same host answer orca status prints (orchestration.callerShow),
asked only when there are messages to render, and falling back to the live id only
when the host cannot say. The host also spells a session address it shows an agent
with the lineage root: a dispatch preview filled in from the chat's own address, and
the provider-id refusal that names a session's address.

* test(orchestration): the parity test's gate facts resolve like the host's

* test(orchestration): the parity test's gate facts carry the submissions main's pointer lane reads

* fix(orchestration): wait a chat's check --wait and ask exactly as long as a terminal's

The host capped a session caller's blocking wait (Codex 6s, Claude 100s) so the
provider's shell tool would not kill it. Neither provider kills a long shell
call: default Codex's exec tool yields and keeps the command running, and Claude
Code moves a timed-out Bash call to the background. Terminal agents run the same
tools uncapped, so the cap only made a chat coordinator re-poll every few
seconds. A session caller's check --wait and ask now wait the budget asked for.

* fix(orchestration): show every agent one address, the mailbox address its mail is keyed by

A structured worker was told `session:<id>` in orca status and its preamble,
but its own send receipts, inbox, worker-list, dispatch previews and task rows
still showed the `structworker_` handle its mail is stored under; only some
reads were re-spelled. Instead of re-spelling reads, callerShow,
sessionAddress and the preamble now report the caller's stored mailbox
address (mailboxAddressOf): a terminal's handle, a structured worker's handle,
and a chat's `session:<lineage root>`. The read-side re-spelling layer
(withAgentVisibleAddresses and its check/banner/preamble call sites) is gone.

Dispatch previews spell the coordinator by its party's mailbox address, so a
`/clear`ed chat's dispatch-show still names its root.

* refactor(orchestration): label check output from what the CLI already knows

check asked the host for orchestration.callerShow after every non-empty check
by a session, only to fill a label used when a legacy row lacks to_handle,
which host rows never do. The label is again the caller's handle or its
injected mailbox address, with no second round trip after mail is consumed.

* refactor(native-chat): offer Copy Orchestration Address on chat tabs only

No mount passes both terminal-pane actions and an orchestration address: a
chat shown inside a terminal pane is that terminal's agent, copied by its
terminal ID. Drop the unreachable terminal-pane placement and its tests.

* fix(orchestration): have orca status report the handle the agent's own check reads

After a window reload a terminal agent keeps ORCA_TERMINAL_HANDLE=term_old while
its pane is reminted as term_new. callerShow reminted and advertised term_new,
but check, send and ask act as the carried handle and never remint, so mail
sent to the advertised address was never read by that agent. callerShow now
answers the carried handle with its liveness, and null for a pane key alone,
from which the mailbox verbs have no identity. Resolving terminal callers once
on the host for every verb is a separate follow-up.

* fix(orchestration): read the renamed coordinator line in the long-prompt repro, and trim round-one leftovers

The reliability repro's fake worker parsed "Your coordinator's terminal handle
is:", which the preamble now spells "Your coordinator's address is:", so it
silently skipped worker_done; it accepts both. Dispatch and its dry-run go back
to main's coordinator line (their `from` is already bound at the entry); only
dispatch-show, whose `from` is unbound, resolves it. Also drops a stale
status-caller comment, trims the wait test to its one uncapped-wait case, and
reverts comment-only churn in the worker opacity test.

* docs(orchestration): keep worker obligation 1 as main words it

The guide grows by the one caller.address line; the parity test bounds the
kernel at main's length plus that line instead of forcing a reword.

* test(native-chat): prove a structured chat tab offers Copy Orchestration Address

Renders the pane-commands hook as a structured chat tab and selects the item:
it asks orchestration.sessionAddress with the tab's target and session id.
Also corrects the menu item's comment to what it copies.

* test(orchestration): D5's tests expect the orca_session_id prefix and 'Orca session ID' wording

* fix(orchestration): name a session by its Orca session ID, and leave terminal agents as main has them

Terminal agents keep main's exact wording: a terminal worker's preamble is
byte-identical to main's, and orca status prints nothing new for them. A
session is named by its Orca session ID (orca_session_id:<id>, its /clear
root's): a structured worker's preamble says "Your Orca session ID is: …"
and its commands use that ID, and a session coordinator is "Your
coordinator's Orca session ID is: …". orca status shows a session caller's
`caller.orcaSessionId`; callerShow answers null for anyone else. The chat
tab menu item becomes "Copy Orca Session ID" with a tooltip saying what the
ID is, and its toasts match. No agent-read text calls this ID an address.
A structured worker's mail is still keyed by its minted handle.

* test(orchestration): check CLI help and status for "address" wording from a CLI test

The node project cannot compile src/cli, so the guard over CLI help, specs
and status text moves to src/cli; both halves share one pattern. Also brings
two comments and the long-prompt repro's coordinator-line regex to the Orca
session ID wording.

* fix(native-chat): keep the Orca session ID tooltip within the tooltip primitive's typography

Drops a restyle the design-system gate refuses on TooltipContent, keeps
"Agent" untranslated in the Japanese tooltip as that catalog does, and types
the test's tooltip mock without an assertion.

* fix(native-chat): the Orca session ID tooltip names the agent CLI's own session ID in the singular

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 800d33e5c9 feat: name runtime machines (#22094)
* feat: name runtime machines

* fix: preserve pairing address optionality

* fix(cli): keep host and environment listings local

Listing paired servers read each one's machine name by dialing it, so both listings made a network
round trip per server and waited out a timeout on any that were offline. They answer from this
machine's own pairing store; `orca host name --environment <name>` reads one server's name.

* fix(settings): caption the machine name paired devices actually receive

The caption read the runtime's published name once, when the pane opened, so saving an override
left it naming the old computer while phones already showed the new one. It now re-reads whenever
the saved override changes; the settings write lands in the main process before the store publishes
it, so that read already sees the new name. The name is interpolated rather than baked into the
fallback, and the caption, label and placeholder are in the English catalog.

* refactor(settings): normalize the machine name in one place

The trim and length rules for `machineName` were spelled out separately at the
renderer IPC (trim + 255), the settings load path (trim only, no cap), the RPC
schema (zod trim + 255) and the runtime reader (trim). A hand-edited or legacy
profile could therefore load a longer name than any writer accepts.

`src/shared/machine-name.ts` now owns `MACHINE_NAME_MAX_LENGTH` and
`normalizeMachineName`, and every writer and the load path use it. The RPC
schema keeps rejecting over-long names but derives its cap from the constant,
and the runtime settings controller normalizes an RPC write before storing it.

* fix(runtime): detect the machine name once and label handoffs with it

Every runtime constructed in a process (the app, plus each one a test builds)
ran its own `scutil` lookup. The friendly name is a property of the host, so the
lookup is now a single shared promise; construction still never blocks on it,
and a rejected lookup can no longer surface as an unhandled rejection.

The structured-chat handoff banner ("Agent is open in terminal on X") named this
host with the bare `os.hostname()` while paired devices saw the published name.
The transport now reads the same `RuntimeMachineName`, through a getter so a
rename in Settings is reflected without rebuilding the transport.

* fix(cli): print the name the runtime publishes and keep its envelope

`orca host name --name X` printed `undefined`: `settings.update` replies with
`{ settings }`, but the handler read a bare `machineName` off the reply, and the
test fixture mirrored the wrong shape so it passed. After a write the command
now re-reads `status.get` and prints what the runtime publishes, so a blank
`--name` prints the detected name it returned to rather than an empty string.

The read path wrapped a possibly routed answer in a local envelope, stamping
`_meta.runtimeId: "local"` on a reply from another server. It now returns the
`status.get` envelope itself, and an unreachable runtime is reported as the
usual error instead of an invented "unknown" name.

`environment list` had gained machine-name and platform columns that no caller
populated, so every row printed "platform unknown"; the columns are removed.

* refactor(settings): give the machine name field its own component

The caption under the field re-read runtime status every time the saved value
changed, relying on a comment about write ordering to show the new name. A saved
override already is what paired devices see, so the hook now derives the caption
from it and asks the runtime only for the detected name; a stale status read can
no longer show the previous name.

`MobileMachineNameField` owns the store read, the published-name hook and the
debounced input, so `MobilePairingSetupSection` returns to its prop shape and
the pass-through `MobilePanePairingOutput` wrapper is gone. Paired-device
revocation moves into `useMobilePairedDeviceRevocation`, which keeps
`MobilePane` within its line budget with an extraction that carries behavior.

The web client mounts this pane too, but its settings store kept the name
locally where nothing published it. `machineName` now rides the existing
runtime-backed settings sync so the field renames the paired runtime.

* refactor(settings): normalize the machine name at the store boundary

Every writer (desktop IPC, web RPC, CLI) reaches the store through
updateSettings, which already normalizes the other free-text settings
there. Trim and bound the machine name in that one place instead of at
two upstream edges, so a future main-process writer is covered too.

* test(settings): pin machine-name routing and detection, and make the field searchable

The shared machine-name lookup test spawned the real `scutil` twice and compared the answers, so a
slow runner could time one spawn out to the hostname and fail. It now mocks the subprocess, proves
the hostname answers until the one shared lookup lands, and that a second runtime does not spawn
again.

`host name` is no longer pinned local, but only the explicit `--environment` route was covered; an
ambient `ORCA_ENVIRONMENT` now has its own test so the pin cannot silently grow back.

The Machine name field is added to the Mobile pane's search catalog at the tail, keeping every
existing row's tie-break index.

* fix(runtime): wait for the machine-name lookup before publishing status

A status read answered in the first few milliseconds after launch published the bare
hostname because the friendly-name lookup had not landed yet, and a caption fetched in
that window never corrected itself. RuntimeMachineName now exposes the settled lookup
as a promise, and both status publishers (the status.get RPC and the desktop
runtime:getStatus IPC) await it before reading. Construction, listen, and every other
method stay unblocked; the worst case is one wait of at most a second on the first read.

* fix(cli): refuse to rename a runtime that does not publish a machine name

An older Orca runtime rejects the unknown settings field with a bare invalid_params, so
'orca host name --name' routed at one failed with no explanation. The runtime that does
not publish machineName on status cannot store one either, so the CLI reads status first
and refuses with incompatible_runtime and a message that says to update that host,
before writing anything.

* fix(ipc): introduce this desktop to remote hosts by its machine name

When this desktop connected to a remote workspace host it announced itself under a
hostname captured once at module load, so a renamed machine kept its old name on every
other device's connected-clients list. The client name is now read at send time from
the runtime's machine name (the configured override, else the detected one), passed in
where the remote workspace handlers are registered, so a rename reaches the next
presence frame without a relaunch.

* fix(runtime): keep the machine-name lookup under the status probe budget

Status publishers now wait for the one-time name lookup, and `orca status`
probes them with a one-second budget. scutil answers in milliseconds, so a
half-second cap keeps a stalled lookup from making a healthy runtime read as
"starting" while still preferring the friendly name.

* refactor(web): drop the unreachable machine-name write path

The Mobile settings section is desktop-only, so the paired web client can
never render the field. Forwarding the name through the web settings sync was
dead code, and against an older host the strict update contract would have
rejected it while the local mirror kept the value. Remove it until a web
surface exists.

* chore(i18n): translate the machine-name strings and document paired-server rows

Add the Machine name field and its Settings search entry to the five non-English
catalogs, explain in the host list spec why paired-server rows report an unknown
platform, and drop a stale timeout figure from a test comment.

* refactor(settings): make the machine name a machine-wide setting with a General home

The name other devices and hosts list this computer under is not a mobile
setting. Rename MobileMachineNameField to MachineNameField, give it a per-mount
id, and put its primary home in Settings > General under "This computer". The
Mobile pane keeps the same field. One shared search entry feeds General, the
Mobile pane, and the copy now says "other devices and hosts" in all six locales.

The web client has no machine of its own to name and its settings mirror cannot
persist one, so the field renders nothing there and General omits the section.

* feat(mobile): name this computer in the Orca Mobile pairing step

The "Pair this computer" step now shows the same machine name field above the
connection choice and code, so a user pairing a phone from the sidebar page can
name the computer right there.

* feat(settings): name this host when sharing it with other devices

Share this host produces the access link other devices use to reach this
machine, so it mounts the machine name field first. The pane's search entry
takes the shared machine-name keywords so a search lands there.

* feat(sidebar): name this desktop when adding a remote host

This desktop introduces itself to a new SSH host or remote server under its
machine name, so the Add Remote Host dialog mounts the field once, between the
header and the host fields, in both modes. Submit logic is unchanged.

* feat(settings): name this computer in the SSH pane add form

The SSH pane's add form mounts the machine name field above the host fields.
Editing a saved host leaves it out; that host already met this computer.

* fix(mobile): drop the empty machine-name grid row on the web client

The pairing step wrapped MachineNameField in its own grid-area div. On the
web client the field renders nothing, so the wrapper left an empty row and
an extra row gap between the copy and the connection options. The field now
takes a className for its root, so the grid slot disappears with it.

* fix(settings): let Enter in the machine name field submit its form like sibling inputs

The field intercepted Enter to blur and commit instead of submitting the enclosing
SSH add form. The draft is already flushed on blur and on unmount, and the name is
read from the store whenever a peer asks, so nothing is lost when the form submits
first. Enter now behaves like the neighbouring inputs; the test proves the submit
fires and the name still commits when the form closes.

* fix(mobile): keep the machine name inside the pairing copy cell

A dedicated grid row stayed in the template on the web client, where the field
renders nothing, adding an empty track and a second row gap between the copy and
the connection options. The field now sits at the end of the copy cell with the
same 18px rhythm, so an absent field leaves nothing behind.

* fix(runtime): retry a failed machine-name lookup instead of latching the hostname

On a loaded Mac the scutil lookup missed its 500 ms cap during app boot, and
because the fallback was memoized for the process, every status read and the
Settings caption showed the bare hostname for the rest of the session.

The lookup now gets a 5 s timeout, a failed attempt (timeout, spawn error,
non-zero exit, empty output) clears the shared memo so a later ready() retries
after a 30 s interval, and status publishers wait only up to a 750 ms publish
budget before answering with what read() has now. A friendly name and the
non-darwin hostname stay final.

* refactor(settings): show the machine name only where other devices join this computer

The Add Remote Host dialog, the SSH pane add form, and General all describe
another machine, so a field about this computer's own name read as a third
kind of label there. The field now mounts only where other devices pair with
or connect to this computer: the Mobile pane, the Orca Mobile pairing step,
and Remote Servers > Share this host.

a899f92402 feat(windows): enable structured Codex chat on native Windows (#18519)
* feat(native-chat): enable Windows structured sessions

* fix(codex): prove native Windows process identity

* style(codex): format Windows session seam

* fix Windows structured Codex admission

* fix(windows): reprobe missing process identity capability

* fix(windows): decide folder-workspace WSL routing before the click

Review found pathUsesWslUnc exported but unused, and the folder composer
hardcoding worktreeUsesWslPath:false. Together those meant a folder picked
under a \\wsl.localhost\ parent routed to structured chat, then got refused
by the host and fell back AFTER the click -- which defeats the lane's own
design goal that create cannot fail after the click.

The group's parentPath is in scope at submit and the workspace is created
under it, so the parent decides WSL-ness pre-click. Wires pathUsesWslUnc
there and adds tests for the helper, including the unhydrated-store case
that previously threw.

* fix(windows): collapse the gate derivation to one call, restoring max-lines

CI static analysis failed: launch-agent-in-new-tab.ts crossed the 300-line
oxlint ceiling. Adding a max-lines disable is forbidden, so the two gate
derivations collapse into one readWindowsStructuredGateInputs() call --
a store-backed site now adds one line and one import name instead of two.
Better shape anyway: one derivation entry point rather than two reads a
call site must remember to pair.

* fix(windows): engage the legacy fallback when the host THROWS a refusal

Review found a P1 this merge composes: neither parent could reach it. At the
lane head the only structured entry was launch-agent-in-new-tab (full
store-backed WSL check); on main all win32 was refused. The merge enables
win32 in creation flows that pass no projectRuntime, so a WSL folder
workspace, a WSL-configured repo, or a repair-required runtime now routes
structured -- and the host refuses correctly, but by THROWING rather than
returning {ok:false, refusal}.

Callers engage their legacy-terminal fallback on the refusal CLASS, so an
unmapped throw arrives as a generic RPC rejection: no fallback, empty
workspace, error toast, prompt stranded in the launch outbox. Pre-merge the
same action opened a legacy terminal agent.

Map the host's thrown definitive refusals onto the refusal class at the
launch boundary, so every creation flow -- present and future -- degrades to
the legacy terminal instead of stranding. Narrow predicate: unrelated
failures (ECONNRESET, empty message, non-Error) still propagate untouched.

Ablation-proven: removing the mapping reddens the fallback test.

* fix(windows): teach the mobile RPC double the status probe the lane added

CI's first-ever run on this lane caught a pre-existing lane defect. The lane
changed status.get to resolve through
runtime.getStatusAfterWindowsProcessStartTimeProbe(), but never taught the
mobile-surface runtime double about it, so status.get failed for mobile
clients with "not a function". The lane's own test list did not include this
file and the lane had zero CI, so nothing ever ran it.

The real runtime always implements the method; the double omitted it.

* chore: merge current main and regenerate the localization runtime catalog

CI static analysis failed on a stale en-runtime-required.json: main added
onboarding integration-capability keys, and the generated catalog is checked
against the PR MERGE result, not the branch alone -- so it read clean locally
while failing in CI. Merging current main (90780acb85) and regenerating.

Gates after the merge: pnpm tc 0, oxlint 0, changed-code quality 0/56,
7 gate/lane test files 69 tests green.

* fix: route structured launches by execution host platform

* fix: recover paired structured session mirror on host swap

* Revert "fix: recover paired structured session mirror on host swap"

This reverts commit 81bfca0007.

* Revert "fix: route structured launches by execution host platform"

This reverts commit 47abbd354a.

* fix(windows): refuse structured chat in a paired web client

Reverts the two review-loop commits (restoring a tree byte-identical to the
validated head) and closes the hole they were aiming at, without their cost.

A paired web client's `platform` describes the browser's machine, not the host
that will run the agent, so the Windows gate cannot be evaluated there. Before
this, a browser on macOS driving a Windows runtime read "not win32", skipped the
creation-time proof entirely and allowed structured chat — fail-OPEN, the
dangerous direction, bypassing the guarantee this lane is built on.

`isWebClient` is a required input like the other gate fields, so the compiler
enumerated all seven call sites. Refusal is synchronous and fail-closed: no
async round-trip, no null window, no cache to invalidate — unlike keying on an
asynchronously-fetched host platform, which would have made every desktop
launch wait on a round-trip to fix a paired-web-only hole.

Paired web therefore gets the legacy chat until the host publishes eligibility
itself; that is the proper fix and belongs in its own PR.

Ablation-proven: removing the guard reddens both refusal tests; the
desktop-unaffected test is a preservation check and passes either way.
Gates: tc 0, oxlint 0.

Known open: repos-onboarding-folder-startup.test.ts fails on this branch and
passes on plain main — under investigation, NOT caused by this commit.

* test(onboarding): mock the web-client check the store path now reaches

The web-client refusal added `isWebClientLocation()` to the launch-route
inputs, which this suite's store path reaches while adding the FIRST folder.
The suite stubs `window` as `{ api }` with no `location`, so the function
cleared its `typeof window === 'undefined'` guard and then threw on
`window.location.pathname`.

That threw inside addNonGitFolder's own catch, so folder-1 never activated;
folder-2 then returned early (a project already existed) before reaching the
call at all, leaving exactly one activation with no startup seed.

Test artifact, not a product defect: a real renderer always has
`window.location`, so the seeding path is intact for users. Mocking the module
is the convention 7 other suites already use, and keeps product code free of
defensive branches that only exist to satisfy a stub.

Ablation-proven: removing the mock reproduces the original failure exactly.

* fix(renderer): make the web-client check total over a partial window

isWebClientLocation() guarded `typeof window === 'undefined'` and then assumed
`window.location` existed. A window stubbed without a location cleared the
guard and threw on `.pathname`.

That matters because this branch put the call on the launch-routing path,
where the throw is swallowed by the caller's catch and silently becomes a
FAILED LAUNCH rather than a visible error. CI caught it as 9 failures in
launch-work-item-direct.test.ts.

I previously "fixed" this by mocking the module in the one suite I knew about.
That was whack-a-mole against an unbounded set, and it missed this one. The
defect is the partial-window assumption, so fix it there: the mock is removed
from the onboarding suite and both suites now pass on the hardening alone.

Ablation-proven: reverting to the unguarded form reddens 11 tests across the
new unit suite and launch-work-item-direct.

Gates: tc 0, oxlint 0, changed-code quality 0/58.

* Move Codex's Windows structured-chat eligibility onto the host createSupport probe

The renderer no longer decides Codex win32 eligibility: launchStructuredAgentSession
probes agentSession.createSupport for both providers, the host answers via
supportsCodexStructuredLocation (process start-time proof + WSL refusal), and the
create path re-checks live. Deletes the client-side windows gate module and its
routing inputs (windowsProcessStartTime, worktreeUsesWslPath, isWebClient, platform)
from six call sites. Splits killCodexAppServerProcessTree out of
codex-app-server-session to hold the max-lines ceiling without a disable.

* fix(ci): keep pnpm lockfile stable

* test(windows): align foreground snapshot flags

* Restore main's pane-snapshot flag contract

Main asks for CreationTime on both projections; this branch's hot-path
isolation went away with the async probe it served.

## ELI5

Orca now treats orchestration like a durable control plane instead of inferring success from terminal keystrokes. Agents can tell whether a prompt was accepted or a turn started, replay an ambiguous request without sending twice, and recover coordinator mail after a crash. Completed workers can be inspected, released, or retained, and their panes no longer auto-resume as if the work were still running.

## What changed

- **Run receipts** from `run-create/use/current/show/list` are the row without routing plumbing (`home_database`, `coordinator_pane_key`) and without the duplicate `binding` object.
- **`terminal send` receipts are honest and idempotent.** `input_accepted` and `turn_started` are the only stages; `--wait-submit` observes without resending; `--retry-request <uuid>` replays the exact request against the same process incarnation. A transport timeout keeps the retry ID; only a different runtime answering strips it. Value-less or non-UUID `--retry-request` is rejected on the CLI and the SSH shim.
- **Mailbox delivery is committed before wakeup.** Pointer writes are staged in the DB before any PTY byte, replayed once after restart, and never emit a naked Enter. The watermark that parks concurrent deliveries is released with the DB reservation. Restart rescans pointer-pending and `dispatch:` mailboxes.
- **Lifecycle is a guarded transition graph** (`lifecycle-transition.ts`) with a table-driven test over every caller edge. Task reopen/overturn stays in the public contract. A PTY exit during `worker-stop` is the stop succeeding, not a failure.
- **Worker lifecycle CLI:** `worker-start` (`--spec` creates Task + attempt in one call), `worker-show`, `worker-read` (provider transcript first, bounded terminal fallback with a typed reason, local/WSL/SSH), `worker-stop`, `worker-abandon`, `worker-release`, `worker-retain`, `worker-list` (rowid-fenced pagination, fleet liveness, `attention`, literal `nextAction`).
- **Release is an explicit ownership table** (`decideWorkerTerminalRelease`): only an `owned` resource can be settled, the archive is mandatory where reachable, and an owner whose process is proven exited can always get out of `retained` via `archive_status: unavailable`. User-taken-over, external, and transferred panes stay retained.
- **Settled-worker resume fence** (folds in #17651): a settled dispatch whose pane is still open is fenced at settlement, on stop/abandon/exit, and at startup; lifted on release, retain, takeover, and pane reuse.
- **Liveness is `live` / `unverifiable` / `exited` only**, from execution-host evidence. Fleet projection reads the evidence clock, not the relay delivery clock. A host-certified exit outranks the worker's settled state. `unverifiable` never authorizes stop, abandon, retry, or release, in code or in the guide.
- **Federation:** structured reads negotiate by `method_not_found` so every shipped host keeps transcript-first output; exited remote workers are closed before being reported closed; epoch fencing holds across peer restart, downgrade, and pairing rotation; no per-second forced capability probe.
- **Schema v35:** repairs databases stamped v34 by the pre-fix branch (mailbox_handle default, index predicates), drops the write-only `lifecycle_transition_receipts` ledger and five never-read v31 identity columns.
- **Schema v36:** `dispatch:<id>` mailboxes get a real consumer generation on `dispatch_contexts` and `remote_dispatch_attachments`, bumped and fenced in the same transaction on every re-attach (manual inject, worker-start, federated attach). A stale worker whose Dispatch moved to another process now gets `consumer_fenced` instead of silently acking the new worker's Delivery. Run mailboxes already worked this way.
- **Schema v37:** `dispatch_contexts` records its creator (`creator_handle`, `creator_pane_key`), so a coordinator's context-only self-dispatch is bookkeeping rather than a nesting parent; before this, one self-dispatch made every later `worker-start` from that coordinator fail the depth cap. Pre-v37 rows keep counting (fails closed).
- **Dispatch-mailbox ownership is checked, not inferred.** A `check` from a process whose pane no longer holds the Dispatch, or whose last Attempt was abandoned/failed and moved to another terminal, gets `consumer_fenced` instead of an empty inbox that reads as "no mail yet". `--peek`/`--all` stay readable. A paneless caller still gets `stable_pane_required` with the rebind recovery.
- **Liveness certification is stricter:** a `process_exited` stage whose termination reason is `unknown` (a stop that was issued but never observed) projects `unverifiable`, not `exited`. Federated `worker-show` carries the execution host's verdict and host kind instead of a local guess. A live, ready worker with nothing pending has `nextAction: none` rather than pointing at the `worker-show` that produced it.
- **Wire:** `workerShow` keeps `dispatch.task_id` next to `taskId` for shipped CLIs. `ask --json` uses the standard `{ok, result}` envelope like every sibling verb.
- **Migration start-version detection** treats the two v32 recovery columns as versioned. Before this, every shipped database stamped below 32 resolved to the v6 floor and replayed the whole chain (the v23 backfill synthesized 68 phantom retained workers on a real v30 profile). Verified on a copy of a real 62 MB v30 profile: starts at 30, no row delta, integrity ok, 11 ms.
- **Skill guide** rewritten as a ≤200-line kernel plus seven references, to the outcome-first standard (Result / Done / Safe failure first, conditions not case lists, one done bar, references loaded at the point of use). The canonical loop uses `worker-start --spec`, names `worker-list` for completion accounting, documents `--retry-request` / `request-show` / `--wait-submit`, and requires positive evidence before any stall action. The other seven guides get the same treatment in #18724, split out so this PR stays orchestration-only.
- **`rpc/methods/orchestration-*`** (126 flat files) regrouped into `orchestration/{worker,federation,messaging,runs,gates}/`.

## Why

User reports showed the same boundary failures: false `agent_prompt_stalled` causing duplicate sends (#15180), coordinators unable to trust screen scrapes, cold-parked terminals receiving a pointer without the submit, settled workers accumulating as live tabs and auto-resuming after restart, and no way to tell a stalled worker from a working one.

## Linked issues

Fixes #15180. Fixes #17935 (orchestration skill description is 866 characters; a guard now caps every bundled skill at 1,024). Supersedes #17651 (fence folded in). Advances #16660, #16522, #14907, #13047.

## Review record

This PR was reviewed adversarially after revival: eight independent lenses (lifecycle, mailbox, send, worker, federation, transcript, complexity, live ergonomics), each required to prove findings with a failing test. That produced 16 proven blockers, all fixed with red-then-green regression tests, followed by two re-review rounds and a third fix wave that caught 3 regressions introduced by the fixes and 7 fixes that missed their target; all closed. A final pass (five lenses incl. a live built-runtime smoke, then a re-review of the fix wave) found and fixed seven more, chiefly the stale-worker mailbox steal, the self-dispatch depth wedge, and the unproven-exit certification. Three independent Codex (gpt-6-astra) passes followed: the first found nothing new, the second found and fixed 3 defects (task-status reachability, WSL-local host classification, peer-capability epoch), the third found and fixed 6 (production PTY controller never installed settled writes, ambiguous in-flight pointer failures allowed duplicate replay, SSH/relay deadlines cut off a valid `--wait-submit`, stop-vs-exit race during inspection, and two release-recovery paths for vanished or exited terminals). The full record (findings, proof tests, triage, declines with reasons) is archived outside the repo.

**Rework after the live smoke.** A first live cross-host run on the shipped adhoc build (this Mac, a paired Windows host on the same build, a paired Mac on 1.4.195, and an SSH host) found a P1: a running local worker read `unverifiable`/`missing_status` because the fleet snapshot rows lacked the terminal handle the matcher keyed on. A 59-row failure table over every bug fixed during review showed the same two classes recurring: a fact dropped in transit through optional fields, and two authorities for one fact. Two blind designs (Opus, Codex) converged on the same mechanisms, and the scoped tranches landed here with red-then-green seam tests from the real producer to the real consumer, faults injected only at the transport or hook-ingest boundary:

- **Settlement (data-loss class):** one three-valued `WriteSettlement` (`accepted | refused{reason} | unverifiable{reason, bytesHandedToTransport}`) from the SSH multiplexer through daemon client, providers, controller, to pointer staging. No boolean, no rejection-as-third-state. The two silent degrades that fabricated a handoff are deleted; a provider that cannot settle refuses before any effect. Pointer text and Enter share the contract; a partial flush is `unverifiable`, never `refused`.
- **Evidence identity (false-liveness class):** fleet agent-status evidence is a tagged union (`binding: worker | pane | unresolved{reason}`, `clock: observed | delivery`) minted once at ingest, so a hook row captured on one process incarnation can never bind to a later dispatch on the same pane. The matcher's `!worker.paneKey ||` defaults are gone. One host-scope parser replaces two.
- **Small pre-merge items:** `capability_unsupported` from an old peer is no longer relabelled `host_unavailable`; a producer census test asserts every agent-status consumer path projects a pane-only hook row as `live`.

Two ergonomics defects the second live run surfaced on a real database are fixed here too: a pre-v3 dispatch already marked `completed` projected as `outcome_unknown` / `requiresAction: true` forever (three copies of the outcome ladder disagreed on legacy rows; now one resolver, legacy `completed` reads `succeeded` with nothing to act on, legacy `failed` stays actionable on the failure), and an unscoped `worker-list` enumerated the entire database (now defaults to the Run bound to the calling terminal, `--run` overrides, and the receipt's additive `scope` field says which).

A third live round on the shipped adhoc build of `b082443e1f` (same four hosts) plus an unscripted run in the user's own prompt style (a plain Claude Code shell, `/orchestration`, three workers, zero errors, bound-Run default confirmed) found two more branch defects, fixed with red-then-green tests: a worker freshly started on a paired server projected `unverifiable`/`host_indeterminate` with `requiresAction` for ~3 minutes, including after its own `worker_done`, because the host's federation observation returned `missing_liveness_verdict` for any PTY the liveness register had not yet swept (the host now reads a connected pane it owns locally as `live`; disconnected or SSH-scoped panes stay `unverifiable`); and six pre-v3 completed rows still carried an `input` category because settling through the task-status path or `failDispatch` never closed the Dispatch's pending question threads (both paths close them now, and schema v38 closes threads already pending on settled rows). The guide's `worker-start` examples now show `--model sonnet`, since an omitted model inherits the launcher's default.

A Codex adversarial pass on the tranche diff found one real design hole (identity minted at read time instead of ingest, now closed) and two daemon settlement paths that threw instead of settling (fixed). Two `@ts-nocheck` runtime mixins on these paths were extracted into checked modules; the repo-wide `@ts-nocheck` count is unchanged at 171.

Deletions during review: ~1,900 lines (write-only ledger, unread columns, dead v1 archive path, test harnesses shipped in prod, duplicated liveness and state-machine copies, self-capability checks that were compile-time true).

## Testing

- `pnpm typecheck:tsc:node|cli|web` clean
- `pnpm run check:code-quality:changed` 0 findings; `check:react-doctor:changed` 0
- `pnpm verify:bundled-skill-guides`, `verify:skill-bundle-manifest`
- full `pnpm test` on the integrated head: 72,332 pass / 292 skipped; the only failures were three non-PR files (two zsh live-shell suites hit a node-pty spawn-helper ENOENT while a concurrent native rebuild ran, 44/44 in isolation; `release-checkout.unit.test.ts` is a known 30 s load timeout that passes in isolation on `origin/main` too).
- CI on 70b4811267 (rerun, pre-Codex): the only reds are five SSH e2e specs plus `terminal-send-agent-prompt-submit:198`, each shown failing identically on main (main's E2E workflow is red on its last 40 runs). The terminal-send spec is root-caused and fixed separately in #18707. The Windows hook-service flake (#17721) and the federation load flake did not recur.
- Skills: `pnpm exec vitest run` over the skill gate files plus `src/cli`, `config/scripts`, `src/main/skills` pass; live smoke on the built CLI of `skills get orchestration` and `--full` (7 references).
- live headless runtime (`orca-dev serve`, isolated profile): canonical loop, stop, release, archive read, retry rejection, stale-handle check, SIGKILL-and-replay all verified with receipts
- Live cross-host smoke on the shipped adhoc build of `0d465e7931` (this Mac and a paired Windows host on the build, a paired Mac left on 1.4.195, an SSH host): local, paired-new, paired-old and SSH loops all settle; running workers read `live` on every host and `exited` after release; the old peer reads `capability_unsupported` and refuses release honestly. Injected 10 s relay stall with a send in flight: delivered exactly once after recovery, zero duplicates. Every liveness field across 104 receipts is only `live` / `unverifiable` / `exited`.
- Final live cross-host smoke on the shipped adhoc build of `b082443e1f` (same hosts): every loop settles; 942 of 948 legacy completed rows read settled with `requiresAction: false` before the question-thread fix and all of them after; `worker-list` scope reads `bound` / `flag` / `all` correctly; 122 JSON receipts carry only `live` / `unverifiable` / `exited`. Unscripted prompt-style run: clean.
- Confirmation smoke on the shipped adhoc build of `2da076d4e9` (this Mac and the paired Windows host, both updated): a freshly started Windows worker reads `live` on the first fleet poll and on all 20 that follow, with no `host_indeterminate` at any point, and `exited` after release; all 948 legacy completed rows read `requiresAction: false` with `nextAction: none` after schema v38; every verdict across 60 receipts is `live` / `unverifiable` / `exited`.
- Not physically exercised: WSL hosts, the renderer notification bell (headless has no renderer), same-session fence via a real pane close (renderer-only state), restart mid-delivery on a real app (covered by e2e only).

## Notes

- Remote-wire additions are optional fields or `method_not_found`-negotiated methods; one new Electron-only IPC channel (`agentStatus:legacyWorkerTerminalResumeFence`) never crosses the wire.
- SSH contact loss remains `unverifiable`; the execution host stays authoritative.
- Intentional wire projection change: an SSH host scope with an empty `targetId` now projects host id `ssh` instead of an empty string (remote-wire-compatibility rule 3, old clients decode the same field). A fleet pane key without a terminal handle is now `unidentifiable` rather than matched by pane key alone.
- Found live but pre-existing on main, filed separately: a relay daemon-start collision during transport loss rewrites the endpoint credential and wedges the surviving relay (host needs a manual kill); `terminal create` on a reconnecting SSH host reports an opaque `No PTY provider for connection`; `terminal list` reports `orphaned:false` and `terminal close` reports `ptyKilled:true` for a pane whose relay is gone (orchestration's own projection reads `unverifiable` correctly at the same moment).
- Downgrade after this PR is not a supported path: main opens a v37 database and early-returns (its inserts still work against the v36/v37 defaulted columns), but its one-outstanding-Delivery-per-Run index is a no-op against the branch's mailbox-scoped index of the same name.
- Known follow-ups (not blockers): `worker-list` materializes every dispatch row per call; a positive "agent absent" signal distinct from PTY liveness is a product decision left open (a headless fake agent never reaches `live`, so its `nextAction` stays `inspect`); a context-only self-dispatch still lists as `role: worker` in `worker-list`; `dispatch` task-not-found / task-not-ready / inject-rejected still surface as `runtime_error`; task and inbox receipts still expose raw row columns. Deferred skill product decisions live on #18724.

* fix: tear down folder workspace browser tabs

* fix: fence pre-publication browser snapshots

* fix: route folder deletion through runtime cleanup

* chore: retrigger CI

* fix: sweep folder PTYs on runtime deletion

* fix: avoid publishing ambiguous worktree snapshots

* fix: preserve optional worktree index state

* fix: fence paired PTYs on worktree removal

* fix: harden deletion fence and folder-delete teardown

- Folder-group delete no longer fails on a mixed-host group: an ambiguous
  connection skips the PTY sweep instead of rejecting the delete.
- Share one folder-workspace PTY teardown helper between the runtime
  removal path and the project-group controller.
- Simplify the mobile snapshot fence: identity-carrying frames are judged
  against the live catalog instanceId and clear the fence once the
  successor is accepted; identity-less frames are fenced by renderer
  generation. Drops the unbounded epoch bookkeeping.
- A fenced frame no longer triggers a resync request on every sync while
  the renderer still lists it as unchanged.
- Cross-host id collisions publish without an instanceId rather than
  blanking the mobile session for that workspace.
- Folder delete IPC always routes through the runtime; the store-only
  fallback and double notify are gone.
- Drop the redundant rescue-path tombstone check; ownership is purged at
  removal.
- Fence tests drive removeWorktreeMetadataAndHistory + syncWindowGraph
  instead of seeding the fence map, and add accept-after-recreate,
  no-resync, and ambiguous-host folder delete cases.

* fix(ci): size the Windows launcher-compile test budget from measurement

`native-smoke (windows-latest)` fails ~4.5% of runs on
`preserves a multiline argument through the compiled remote launcher`
with "Test timed out in 15000ms" — on unrelated PRs, for reasons that
have nothing to do with them. Across 176 sampled attempts it is the only
red that job produced, and it hit seven different PRs in two days:
#16900, #16904, #16915, #16955 (twice), #16979, #17014, #17085.

The test is six process creations: powershell.exe forks csc.exe, then
the freshly compiled orca.exe forks node.exe, twice. Hosted Windows
runners periodically slow process creation down, and this test amplifies
that far harder than anything else in the job. Comparing the 80 attempts
where it ran under 3s against the 12 where it ran over 12s, its own
median goes 2198ms -> 15917ms (7.2x) while the same file's
powershell-only test moves 556 -> 686ms (1.2x), the cmd.exe and Git Bash
process tests in the neighbouring file move 1.4x, and the other 35 files
put together move 1.5x.

Measured across those 176 attempts: 1881ms to 35438ms, p50 4264ms,
correlation +0.881 with the job's total Vitest duration. 8 of 176 (4.5%)
exceeded the 15s cap; 2 of 176 (1.1%) also exceeded the shared 30s
testTimeout, so deleting the override and inheriting the config is not
enough on its own. 60s clears all 176 with 1.7x headroom on the worst.

This is slow, not hung. Every body here is synchronous spawnSync, so
Vitest cannot interrupt one — the timer fires only after the body
returns and the reported duration is real elapsed time. That is why a
failure reads `× ... 22464ms` under `Test timed out in 15000ms`. The
work finished; the stopwatch was short. Seven reruns at one identical
head measured 2053 / 4680 / 5551 / 8732 / 13506 / 14868 / 21937ms — the
last of those would have been red on code that had not changed.

The 15s came from #8897, which raised this test off Vitest's built-in 5s
default because the job then ran bare `pnpm vitest run`. #8909 landed
3h27m later and pointed the job at config/vitest.config.ts, which is the
real fix for that. The constant stayed behind and has been the binding
budget ever since.

* fix(terminal): reconcile mounted pane identity after replacement

Brennan Benson fd9125ea8c feat(native-chat): Codex structured native chat restructure (#16729)
* feat(native-chat): port structured Codex sessions from restructure-recovery

Rebuilds the desktop structured native-chat implementation from
brennanb2025/native-chat-restructure-recovery (tip 4e31c08db3) on top of
current main as a single commit, scoped to the local Codex path.

Ported:
- Structured agent-session core: durable record store + single-writer lease,
  canonical journal, agent-session wire host/attach/eviction/subscribers,
  `agentSession.*` RPC surface (registered via ALL_RPC_METHODS; host-side
  mobile allowlist included for wire compat), pty write gate, transcript
  additions, and the Codex app-server adapter/launch resolution.
- Renderer: NativeChatStructuredSession view/composer stack, structured
  launch path with the single-flight guard, local structured session tabs
  sync, activation gate + structured inventory (read-only
  `agentSession.handoffStatus` probe), agent-session tabs in the tab strip,
  AI-vault structured session activation, and the settings pane with the
  parent Experimental Chat UI toggle plus the nested "Use updated structured
  native chat" toggle. New sessions require both flags, agent codex, no
  prompt, and a local non-WSL, non-Windows-host execution host
  (structured-native-chat-availability).
- Fixes 72c013cea6 (verified Codex launch recovery), 8ddbaf5e3d (defer
  native terminal view switching affordances), and 4e31c08db3 (release the
  launch gate after a visibility retry) with their regression tests,
  including the third-launch-after-retry guard case.
- Cross-version agent-session wire test + CI lane, packaging entries
  (proper-lockfile, agent-tooling asar excludes), and the wire-compat doc
  section.

Deliberately not ported: mobile/ changes, the Claude structured runtime
(only the claude-transcript-branch-proof and claude-structured-owner-identity
leaf modules remain, backing the kept TUI-recovery arms), the terminal↔chat
adoption/handoff flow (`agentSession.adoptTerminal`/`requestHandoff`, the
handoff request engine, TUI adoption machinery, orca-runtime adoption
methods), renderer switching affordances and their dead leftovers, the
hook/subagent-status refactor cluster, and unrelated branch changes. The
crash-during-acquisition recovery path (restart handoff adjudication,
restore/reverse re-acquire, lease schema handoff keys) is kept because every
plain direct launch depends on it; a trimmed handoff coordinator exposes
only status/restore/close.

Branch edits that targeted files main has since split (ipc/pty.ts,
worktrees.ts, rpc/methods/terminal.ts, useIpcEvents, pty-connection,
store/slices/terminals.ts, runtime-types, web preload) were re-applied to
the split modules, preserving main's newer logic (Windows CIM fallback,
browser tab close rework, cold-restore resume flow, dispatcher threading).

Known seam: the mobile clipboard image-provenance CONSUMER gate ships
(agentSession.send refuses unproven mobile image refs with
agent_session_image_untrusted) but the producer hunk in
rpc/methods/clipboard.ts stays with the unported mobile cluster, so mobile
image sends into structured chat fail closed until that side ports.

* fix(native-chat): trust only authenticated local image uploads

* fix(build): preserve Windows process-tree patch application

* test(windows): include process creation time in addon fixture

* fix(build): run windows-process-tree node-gyp from the physical package dir

gyp expands the node-addon-api dependency by probing node, whose cwd
resolves to the package's physical directory in the store, so the emitted
target is a store-relative ../../../../node-addon-api@... hop. gyp then
resolves that hop against the rebuild cwd; from the node_modules
symlink/junction it escapes the store and configure fails with
"node_addon_api.gyp not found" (run 32999886072).

Rebuild from realpath(package dir) so both bases agree, matching how the
package manager itself runs native install scripts. The regression test
replays gyp's expansion+resolution against the planned cwd and fails
without the fix.

* fix(native-chat): keep chat tabs visible through terminal closes and empty-worktree launches

Two proven blockers in the native Codex tab contract:

closeTerminalTab pre-empted the canonical unified close. With one terminal
left it deactivated the worktree on a terminal/editor/browser-only check,
blanking a workspace that still held a renderable agent-session tab; with
two or more it pre-picked a successor from terminal entities only,
re-stamping the group active before closeUnifiedTab's MRU/neighbor repair
could land on the chat tab. Successor choice now defers to the unified
contract whenever the terminal has a unified row, and deactivation is
gated on the unified renderable count (matching leaveWorktreeIfEmpty),
with the legacy pre-pick kept only for terminals without a unified row.

A structured session created on an empty worktree was published into the
host's headless group while preserveLocalLayout froze the local layout,
leaving the tab in store but permanently off screen. A preserveLocalLayout
owner now always takes client-owned placement — repairing a rendered
leaf whose group record is missing, or materializing a rendered group on a
truly empty worktree — and applies the client-derived layout repair while
still rejecting host-authored layout.

Regression tests drive the real store through closeTerminalTab (git
worktree and folder workspace) and the real snapshot applier for the
empty-worktree adoption states; all fail without the fixes.

* fix(native-chat): anchor an unmatched chat echo where it was sent (#16117)

* fix(native-chat): anchor an unmatched chat echo where it was sent

The reported symptom was old user messages replaying below every new turn, so the
conversation read as scrambled. The cause was not that the echo failed to match a
transcript row. Claude consumes a mid-turn send through a `queued_command`
attachment and writes no `type:"user"` record for it, so some echoes can never
match, and no amount of matching will change that. The cause was WHERE an
unmatched echo rendered: buildMobileNativeChatTransientData appended every pending
item after the entire transcript, so it re-read below each turn that landed
afterwards.

Render each echo directly after the transcript row it was sent against, using the
baseline the send already captures. An unmatched echo is then at worst a duplicate
in the right position rather than a scrambled one, and it stays visible. Echoes
sharing an anchor keep send order; a send with no baseline, or one whose anchor
folding dropped, still falls back to the tail.

Deliberately NOT fixed by deleting the echo. Inferring from send ordering that an
echo can never match, then removing it, loses the user's own text for a message
the agent did receive, and it cannot fire in the common case anyway - measured
drain groups are 1,017 of size 1 against 55 larger. It also escalates an existing
gap: the count pass has no baseline-tail guard, unlike the glue pass, while
`messages` is a 40-row window that head-trims, resets on reconnect and grows at
the front on loadEarlier, so a false landing there would license deleting a
DIFFERENT outstanding message.

That count-pass gap is real and left for a separate change; anchoring makes its
worst case a duplicate in place rather than a scrambled conversation.

* fix(native-chat): preserve folded echo anchors

* fix(native-chat): preserve forward-folded echo anchors

* fix(native-chat): keep leading folded echoes in place

* fix(workspace-cleanup): show git status for every row (#16690)

* fix(native-chat): refuse structured chat on every Windows execution path

canUseStructuredNativeChat only refused win32 when a project runtime
resolved, so folder-workspace keys (and other keys with no project
runtime) failed open into structured chat on Windows. Fail closed on
win32 unconditionally after the host check, matching the settings copy:
local macOS/Linux only; Windows/WSL/SSH stay on terminal chat.

* fix(native-chat): restore runtime refusals behind the win32 gate

506d375de3 replaced the project-runtime checks with a bare platform test,
so a WSL or repair-required runtime resolution would no longer refuse
structured chat off-win32. Keep the unconditional win32 refusal and
re-run the runtime resolution after it, so the gate does not depend on
the resolver's own platform guard. Tests inject WSL and repair-required
resolutions on darwin/linux and fail against the regressed gate.

The switch effect adjusted error state after the sessionId prop changed,
tripping react-doctor's no-adjust-state-on-prop-change on the changed-code
gate and flashing the old session's banner for a frame. Reset it with the
render-time previous-value guard instead.

* fix(native-chat): invalidate stale outbox settlements

* test(native-chat): restore settled-error session-switch regression

a6e2379bd1 replaced this test with the in-flight settlement race test,
leaving the render-time error reset unpinned: deleting the reset block
still passed the whole native-chat suite. Keep both scenarios pinned;
they are distinct (settled error clears on switch vs stale settlement
invalidated in the commit-to-passive window).

* test(wire): make release checkouts race safe

* fix(build): drop CR-byte residue from windows-process-tree patch

The two trailing CR bytes on the patch's deletion lines are a proven
no-op: pnpm hashes patches CRLF-normalized (both forms hash to the
lockfile's 946ffb2b) and materializes this package without applying the
patch in either form, so the load-bearing build edits come solely from
applyWindowsProcessTreeBuildFixes() (#16947), which handles both source
EOL forms. Restore byte-identity with main and repin the contract test
to the post-#16947 reality: LF-only patch bytes plus lockfile hash sync.

Neil 5631aa00dd feat(orcad): items 2–7 — degradation, natives, daemon, ops, deploy (#16398)
* fix(ports): stop joining an undefined resourcesPath on a non-Electron host

`resolveWorkerEntryPath` branched on `isPackaged` alone and joined
`process.resourcesPath`. orcad reports `isPackaged` true — correctly, it is a
production build, and ~15 consumers read it that way to gate HTTPS-only skill
downloads and the real CLI name — but `process.resourcesPath` is Electron-only
and `undefined` under plain Node.

So the packaged branch threw
`TypeError [ERR_INVALID_ARG_TYPE]: The "path" argument must be of type string`
where a clean "worker unavailable" was the honest outcome. The type said
`resourcesPath: string`, which is how it went unnoticed; it is now
`string | undefined`, so the compiler carries the fact.

A host with no Electron resources tree has no asar to look in, so it falls back
to the module directory and lets the caller report a missing worker.

Found by the item 1 agent while auditing the same `isPackaged` defect class in
the watcher. Verified in both directions: reverting the guard reproduces the
TypeError.

* feat(orcad): prove node-pty loads before anything requires it

Of the two ways node-pty fails, only one is catchable. A missing module throws
MODULE_NOT_FOUND. A module built against the wrong libc or Node ABI is refused by
the dynamic loader, and in the worst case takes the process down before any handler
exists — that is #9902, which crashed the desktop app on Ubuntu 20.04 before a
window appeared. There was no libc or ABI precondition anywhere in the tree.

So orcad now proves the load in a CHILD process, from main.ts, before anything
requires node-pty. Whatever the child does — throw, abort, die on a signal — is data
rather than our own death, and the operator gets a sentence naming the host's libc,
Node ABI and prebuild slot plus the command to run. Proven-unloadable exits 78
(EX_CONFIG), so a supervisor does not restart an unequippable host forever. A probe
that never answered is unverifiable, not blocked: refusing to boot on an inconclusive
signal would take down hosts that work.

The child dlopens the file node-pty would have chosen, before requiring the package.
node-pty's loader walks several directories and rethrows only the LAST error, so a
refused binary reads as "Cannot find module ./prebuilds/..." — which sends the
operator to install a module that is already there. It also reports through stdout:
node echoes the whole -e source above a stack trace, and matching tokens against
stderr made the probe's own source text answer for the verdict.

Verdicts reach clients as a terminal_unavailable degradation alongside the existing
browser_unavailable one, through the same cause-registry shape. degradations[].code
is now an open vocabulary; clients already render only `message`.

Prebuilds are compiled from PATCHED sources — the patch IS the glibc-floor fix, so an
upstream tarball reproduces #9902 — into linux-{x64,arm64}-{glibc,musl} and
darwin-{x64,arm64} slots. libc is in the slot name because node-pty's loader falls
back to prebuilds/<platform>-<arch> and cannot tell glibc from musl. orcad installs
the matching slot at boot, so a host with no compiler serves terminals.

The relay's five pure toolchain-diagnosis functions moved to a transport-free module
so the Node bundle can reuse them without dragging ssh2 in behind them; the relay
keeps its API by re-export. macOS gets `xcode-select --install` rather than the
cross-distro apt/dnf/pacman/apk menu, every line of which is wrong there.

* test(orcad): pin the node-pty precondition to ground truth, not a prepared host

CI's test shard runs `vitest` directly, so `ensure-native-runtime --runtime=node`
never prepares node-pty for the Node ABI — `degraded` is the correct verdict
there, and asserting 'ok' encoded an environment the shard does not have.

Asserting whatever it returned would be vacuous, so the expectation is now
derived from an independent require() of node-pty. Verified it still bites:
forcing the precondition to always report 'ok' fails the suite.

* feat(orcad): run the terminal daemon, and the ops contract around it

orcad declared `canRecoverPersistentLocalPtys: () => false` because it did not
run the terminal daemon, so every restart, update and rollback SIGKILLed every
running terminal — on the host whose selling point is that work survives the
client going away. That is the one property `ssh-execution-boundary.md`
recommends the peer model for.

Item 4 — the daemon:

- Port the launch path off electron: `daemon-init.ts`,
  `daemon-host-relocation.ts` and `observability/logs-directory.ts` now read
  the `AppEnvironment` port. Relocation additionally asks whether the app root
  is an asar archive rather than whether the build is packaged, so a Node host
  answering `isPackaged() === true` no longer walks into an Electron-only
  NSIS-escape path (same precedent as `parcel-watcher-entry-path.ts`).
- `build-orcad.mjs` emits `daemon-entry.js` beside `orcad.js`, scans the
  forked children's metafiles for electron/node:sqlite, and load-checks the
  child under plain Node.
- orcad spawns and adopts the daemon; shutdown disconnects and never kills it.
  `canRecoverPersistentLocalPtys` now reads the live provider and is false
  under degraded routing, where fresh terminals would die with the process.

Item 3 — the ops contract (docs/reference/orcad-operations.md):

- Bind policy: `--bind`, default loopback, pinned so neither `orca serve`'s
  wide default nor the connected-device widen can override it, and so a paired
  client cannot rebind the listener from outside.
- Instance lock on the data root before profile load, scoped to the runtime
  role so it never refuses a restart that a live daemon makes worthwhile.
- Supervision: exit codes a supervisor can act on (78 = do not retry),
  second-signal escalation, a shutdown deadline, and crash-loop containment on
  daemon respawn.
- Health in the readiness payload: build hash, Node ABI, and a PTY self-test
  that spans both processes — the daemon spawns a real PTY in its own process
  and the verdict crosses its socket.

Both bundle load-checks now assert on exit codes: these bundles are minified
onto one line, so Node's uncaught-exception report echoes every string literal
in the bundle and the previous message match passed against a bundle that
never loaded.

* feat(orcad): deploy, activate and roll back a versioned orcad install

Plan items 6 and 7 from docs/design/shipping-orcad.html.

Install reuses the relay's transaction verbatim — per-version lock, staged
SFTP write, .install-complete sentinel, stale-lock recovery — under a
parameterized namespace, so orcad-<v>/ sits beside relay-<v>/ permanently
(§06). Parameterizing GC is the trap that creates: each model now collects
only its own directories, enforced twice (prefix-scoped remote listing plus
a local ownership re-check), and a client picks its model from how the host
is registered, never from what it finds on disk.

Activation is separate from installation, because a versioned directory
selects nothing. A candidate is launched, publishes orca_server_ready, and
only becomes active if its cross-process health payload passes: right build
hash, listening, daemon live, PTY self-test green. A rejected candidate is
stopped and the incumbent restarted, so a careful deploy cannot cause the
outage it was being careful about.

Update and rollback are shaped by the daemon. An update restarts orcad, the
daemon outlives it, and the surviving daemon was forked from the outgoing
bundle — so live terminals defer the update rather than proceed, and GC pins
the active version, the rollback target and the live daemon's bundle. Orca's
persisted state carries no schema version, so rollback restores a
pre-activation snapshot rather than trusting backward-readability; the point
past which it is unsafe is the first terminal created after activation,
which the snapshot cannot describe and the surviving daemon still owns.

Running the generated shell for real found two bugs the text assertions
missed: tar members re-quoted inside a shell variable captured nothing, and
kill -0 reports a zombie as alive.

* test(orcad): assert the precondition is self-consistent, not environment-shaped

The real-host case cannot predict a status: CI's shard runs vitest directly, so
node-pty is never built for the Node ABI and 'degraded' is correct there, while a
prepared checkout gives 'ok'.

The previous attempt used require('node-pty') as ground truth, which resolves the
JS wrapper while the native binding loads lazily — it proved strictly less than
the precondition checks, and failed CI for exactly that reason.

What is invariant on a host with node-pty installed: never 'blocked', and never a
degraded verdict carrying an unestablished reason. The injected-input tests keep
the logic coverage.

* fix(orcad): drop an eslint-disable the rule no longer needs

* test(orcad): separate slot placement from the load verdict

Both remaining CI failures were the same shape: tests reaching into node_modules
for a pty.node that only exists after `ensure-native-runtime --runtime=node`,
which CI's shard never runs because it invokes vitest directly.

Slot *placement* is the logic worth checking on every host, so it now uses a
synthetic payload and asserts the verdict stays honest about not loading. The
three assertions that genuinely need a Node-ABI binding are gated on it existing.

Verified: breaking slot installation fails both placement tests; with the real
pty.node hidden the file is 17 passed / 3 skipped instead of ENOENT.

* test(orcad): gate the load-dependent cases on a real load, not on the file existing

CI ships a pty.node built for Electron's ABI, so existsSync was true while require
still failed — the gate ran exactly the tests that host can never satisfy. It now
probes the binding in a child process, so a bad one cannot take the runner down.

The self-consistency assertion also allowed too little: 'blocked' is the honest
verdict for a corrupt binding, alongside 'ok' on a prepared host and 'degraded' on
an unprepared one. What stays invariant is that anything other than 'ok' names an
established cause, so a terminal is never declined for a reason nobody worked out.

Verified against all three host states: prepared (19 passed), unprepared, and a
corrupt binding (17 passed / 3 skipped, no failures).

* test(orcad): gate on the whole premise — binding AND spawn-helper

CI has a loadable pty.node but no spawn-helper, and a slot without the helper is
legitimately 'degraded'. So the previous gate let a test run whose premise ('a
complete slot yields ok') that host cannot satisfy.

Verified in both states: with the helper present 19 pass; with it removed the
load-dependent cases skip (17 passed / 3 skipped) instead of failing.

* fix(orcad): preserve degradation types after rebase
