Jinwoo Hong c853e10e0c fix(rpc): validate provider-specific fields in TaskProviderIdentity (#20284)
* fix(rpc): validate task provider identity fields

Validate provider-specific field types while preserving nullable scopes and unknown identity fields. Record the producer census and pin validation with regression tests.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01JNnE9qzUZMMnqpZWCqM3nb

* fix(rpc): reject a blank GitHub owner or repo

normalizeTaskProviderIdentity treats a blank owner or repo as no identity at
all, but the schema accepted '' and whitespace-only, so the two disagreed about
the same payload. Refined rather than trimmed: trimming would rewrite the
parsed value and change what the handler receives.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01JNnE9qzUZMMnqpZWCqM3nb

* docs(rpc): re-measure the identity evidence counts

The blank-field commit added seven tests, so the recorded 74/16/58 described the
commit before it. Re-ran both: 81 tests, and the discriminant-only mutation now
gives 17 failures / 64 passes.

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01JNnE9qzUZMMnqpZWCqM3nb

* docs(rpc): correct the remaining stale gate count

The blank-field commit moved the full-RPC total too; 2,463 was the count before
it. Re-ran: 278 files, 2,470 passed, one skipped.

Jinwoo Hong 1f7655f3e3 feat(ai-vault-search): public session search contract and transports (#20277)
* feat(ai-vault-search): define public contract and service seam

* feat(ai-vault-search): add IPC runtime relay and web transports

* fix(ai-vault-search): register search IPC at the core handler site

ai-vault.ts was two lines over the 300-line max-lines limit; the search
handlers belong with the other register*Handlers calls anyway.

* fix(ai-vault-search): withhold degraded-root paths from relay status

Status carried local filesystem paths over the relay while hits redact
theirs. redactStatusForTransport applies the same policy at the same
boundary: relay callers keep each root's reason and the array length as
the count, so the type only makes root optional.

* fix(ai-vault-search): close diagnostic path leak and remove test casts

* feat(ai-vault-search): carry an execution host id and per-host outcomes on hits

* feat(ai-vault-search): route desktop search by execution host scope, including runtimes

* feat(preload): accept an execution host scope on session search

* feat(web): answer only for the paired runtime on session search

* docs(ai-vault-search): describe execution-host routing and the all-hosts merge

* test(ai-vault-search): cover every host scope, the all-hosts merge and wire compat

* fix(ai-vault-search): resume every host mid-page so a merged page never drops a hit

* fix(ai-vault-search): decode the merged cursor with a schema instead of casts

CI's type-aware audit refuses type assertions; a zod record validates the
per-host entries and yields the typed map without one.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): defer cross-host merged search

Neil e86cba888b build: reduce native dependency installs to the host platform (#20420)
* Reduce native dependency installs to the host platform

* Remove install policy documentation

* Guard cross-arch packaging and scope release installs to the runner

electron-builder only logs a warning for a missing extraResources source,
so a host-only install silently shipped a foreign-arch slice without its
natives — `pnpm build:mac` on Apple Silicon produced an x64 DMG with no
sherpa-onnx-darwin-x64 and no @parcel/watcher-darwin-x64. The previous
beforePack hook covered only win32.

- Add assertPackagedNativeVariantsInstalled, an arch-aware check over the
  target's sherpa-onnx, @parcel/watcher, and (on Windows) node-gyp addons.
  beforePack now runs it for every platform, with remedies split: another
  architecture comes from install:release, the os:win32 addons need a
  Windows host.
- Drop --os from the release installs. Every packaging job already runs on
  a runner whose OS matches its target, so only the macOS lanes need extra
  breadth, and only on CPU for their x64+arm64 config. Windows and Linux
  packaging return to a plain host-only install.
- Add --frozen-lockfile to install:release so a bare run cannot rewrite
  the lockfile.
- Restore the install policy reference doc and the CONTRIBUTING note, plus
  the rationale comments dropped from the runtime contract test.
- Gate the packaging-closure assertions on whether the Windows addons are
  installed rather than on the host OS, so a cross-arch install exercises
  them off Windows too.
- Make the workflow contract test read `run:` steps as well as retry-action
  commands, and enforce host-only scoping on the non-macOS packaging lanes.
- Remove the unreferenced install measurement script; its numbers live in
  the policy doc.

* Track the install policy doc and index it from AGENTS.md

docs/** is ignored behind a per-file allow-list, so the new reference doc
was only committed via git add -f and future edits would be skipped. Add
it to the allow-list and give it an AGENTS.md entry like every other
tracked reference doc, so the host-only install rule is discoverable
before someone packages a second architecture.

* Route Windows-lane removals through the retrying helper

Adding these four specs to the PR Windows lane pulled them into the
windows-lane-tree-removal-boundary ratchet, which failed on 20 raw
recursive removals. On Windows a bare rmSync races a handle the OS has
not released, throwing EPERM after the assertions already passed and
reporting a green test as a lane failure.

* Adapt the packaging guard to the vendored Windows registry addon

main vendored windows-native-registry as the workspace package
@orca/windows-registry (#20438). A workspace link resolves on every
host, so including it in the installed-Windows-addons checks proved
nothing. @vscode/windows-process-tree is the only os: win32 npm addon
left, so it alone decides whether the win32 resource plan resolves.

Neil 5127d1eb3b refactor(windows): vendor the registry addon as @orca/windows-registry (#20438)
* refactor(windows): vendor the registry addon as @orca/windows-registry

windows-native-registry@3.2.2 was last published in 2023 by a single
maintainer. Orca called two of its exports, both read-only, so the whole
dependency is replaced by a local N-API addon under native/.

The vendored addon is read-only by construction: setValue, createKey and
deleteKey are gone, so RegDeleteTreeW no longer ships in the app. Two
upstream defects are also fixed rather than carried over — the name/data
scratch buffers were file-scope statics that concurrent reads would
scribble over, and createKey/deleteKey called .c_str() on a temporary.

Build wiring keeps the existing shape: still an optionalDependency gated
to win32, still excluded from pnpm's allowBuilds so only Orca's own
Windows rebuild runs node-gyp for it, still copied into the packaged
resources. The CI native caches now key on the vendored sources so an
addon.cc edit cannot restore a stale .node.

* test(windows): check the vendored registry addon against reg.exe

The addon is vendored source, so no upstream release proves it still
decodes values the way Orca's PATH readers expect. reg.exe is the only
independent oracle on the box.

* ci(windows): register the registry addon test on the Windows runner

A Windows-gated file self-skips on ubuntu, so without both registrations
it reports success while running on no machine at all.

* fix(build): link the registry addon as a workspace package, not file:

As a `file:` dependency pnpm re-resolved and re-linked the package on
every install, including `--frozen-lockfile` (measured: "added 1" on a
repeat no-op install). That virtual-store churn ran concurrently with
node-gyp reading the same tree and cost @vscode/windows-process-tree its
binding.gyp mid-rebuild, failing package (windows) whenever the native
cache hit and only that module needed building. The linux packaging job
hit the same race from the other side, as a pnpm staging move failure.

A workspace link resolves once and leaves the store alone; repeat
installs are now 55ms no-ops. native/windows-registry is listed
explicitly so `packages:` still does not auto-discover mobile/.

* fix(build): stop tracking node-gyp output for the vendored addon

The build/ tree is generated per host and ABI; the committed copy was
macOS-specific gyp scaffolding from a local build and would have shipped
stale Makefiles to every checkout.

* chore: ignore the vendored addon's node-gyp bin output too

node-gyp also emits bin/<platform>-<abi>/ beside build/; both are per-host
generated output that must never be committed.

Neil 7b0701aefa chore: remove 20.7 MiB of duplicate and unused media (#20416)
* chore: remove duplicate and unused documentation media

* chore: guard README local links and refresh tile-01 vendor metadata

- Add config/scripts/check-readme-local-links.mjs: every local src/srcset/href
  in README.md and docs/readme/*.md must resolve to a tracked file. Runs in the
  ungated root_directory_guard job so docs-only diffs (which skip static_analysis)
  still catch a deleted docs-site or feature-wall asset the README embeds.
- Refresh tile-01.recorded-at.json to what vendor-feature-wall-assets.mjs now
  emits for the tab-split source path.
- Drop the pr-19217 evidence prose that cited the removed screenshots.

* fix: accept single-quoted attributes in README local link check

The parser only matched double-quoted src/srcset/href, so <img src='missing.gif'>
was skipped and the guard passed a README that GitHub renders with a broken image.
Regression test fails without the parser change.

Neil 56fcb544e0 fix(browser): move cookie scoping off psl's stale suffix list (#20421)
* fix(browser): move cookie scoping off psl's stale suffix list

psl@1.15.0 is its latest release and ships a Dec-2024 snapshot of the
public suffix list. Measured against the current upstream list, it fails
to recognise 600 of 10,030 suffixes; tldts misses 2.

That gap is a cookie-isolation bug. psl does not know `api.br` is a
suffix, so it falls back to the `br` rule and maps foo.api.br, bar.api.br
and example.api.br all onto the single family `api.br`. Unrelated
registrants then share a removal scope, and a replace-mode import for one
clears the others' cookies. The same holds for seg.ar, co.az, gov.cz and
~597 more.

tldts is called with allowPrivateDomains, without which the PSL's PRIVATE
section is ignored and every *.github.io / *.s3.amazonaws.com / *.vercel.app
tenant collapses into one family — 21 of 49 probed hosts changed family
under the default. The new test pins that boundary.

One deliberate behaviour change: hosts under `.local` (not in the PSL)
were their own family under psl, which returned an all-null parse for
them; they now resolve to the two-label boundary (app.orca.local ->
orca.local), matching what Chromium treats as the registrable domain.

* fix(build): bundle tldts into the main process like psl was

psl sat in BUNDLED_MAIN_DEPENDENCIES, so it was inlined into the main
bundle rather than externalized and copied into resources/node_modules.
Swapping the dependency without moving that entry left a bare tldts
import that afterPack's runtime-closure check rejects.

* fix(build): point the output contract at tldts and drop the psl shim

The contract test still asserted psl was in BUNDLED_MAIN_DEPENDENCIES, so
it failed once the entry became tldts. src/types/psl.ts declared a module
that no longer resolves; tldts ships its own types.

* test(browser): pin the suffix boundaries the tldts swap moved

Three semantic changes shipped untested:

- `.local` is unlisted, and the libraries disagreed on what that means. psl
  returned an all-null parse so every `*.orca.local` host was its own family;
  tldts stops at `orca.local`. The consequence is wider than the family name —
  importDomainAncestors now yields the shared parent, so a replace-mode import
  of one host clears non-host-only cookies every sibling shares.
- psl's snapshot had `compute.amazonaws.com` as a literal PRIVATE suffix; the
  current list only carries the wildcard, so the bare host is ICANN now.
- The renderer's `psl.isValid` gate had no direct test at all — nothing imported
  the module from a test.

Also drops comments that explained a boundary in terms of psl's internals. One
was wrong under tldts: bracketed IPv6 does not reach an error branch, it parses
with the brackets stripped and falls through the unlisted path.

Jinwoo Hong fa3d29fa11 feat(ai-vault-search): session search query engine over the index (#20029)
* feat(ai-vault-search): give the index a generation a page cursor can be fenced by

A search page is a slice of one ranked list, so a cursor only means anything
against the snapshot that produced it. The store now keeps a monotone
generation in `meta`, bumped by every mutation that can change which rows a
read returns, and starts a new one on open so a write whose bump never landed
cannot leave a cursor pointing at content that is already gone.

Schema version 2 adds the two tables the query layer needs: `messages_vocab`
(fts5vocab over messages_fts, the typo repair's whole dictionary) and
`search_log`. Both are pure additions and the index is a cache, so a version-1
file is dropped and rebuilt exactly as any other mismatch is.

* feat(ai-vault-search): plan a query the way the index tokenized it

The planner unfolds the tokenizer contract instead of asking SQLite: same
boundaries as `unicode61 tokenchars '_.-/+'`, pinned against real fts5vocab
output so a query can be planned without a round trip. It decides the route
ladder's first rung (literal shape), strips stop words from prose but never
from a literal, and fans an identifier out into its pieces for the OR fallback.

Typo repair uses the index's own vocabulary as its dictionary, so it can never
suggest a term the index does not hold. Its exact-match probe now joins
`visible_messages`: `messages_vocab` is a view over the FTS b-tree and still
lists staged and tombstoned terms, and the PR 2 read ratchet is right to
demand the join.

`splitAiVaultSearchQuery` is the index's reading of repo: / path:. It keeps
operator case, which the panel folds and cwd_key must not; a census test pins
the two parsers to the same answer about what is an operator until PR 7 moves
the panel onto this one.

* feat(ai-vault-search): narrow a search the way the sidebar keys a folder

Every caller-supplied narrowing in one place, so retrieval, the operator-only
page and the session load cannot drift apart: agents, an updated-at floor, the
retention cutoff, scope paths, and the repo: / path: operators.

Scope keying goes through PR 2's `cwdKey`, which is the sidebar's
`folderGroupKey` without its prefix, rather than the original branch's second
spelling. That drops the branch's WSL distro qualification, which PR 2 removed
on purpose, and it makes the filesystem root a key that already ends in a
separator, so the child-prefix range is built from the key rather than by
appending one; `//` sorts below every real child and would scope the root to
nothing.

Engine types land here too, under src/main and not src/shared: nothing in this
PR is a wire type, and PR 5 lifts what a caller may receive.

* feat(ai-vault-search): rank, page and answer a session search

`SessionSearchEngine.search()` over the PR 2 store: route ladder (phrase, AND,
typo repair, OR), BM25 weights per corpus, one hit per session, fork folding,
and a page.

- `scope` picks the corpus and the engine never second-guesses it.
  `conversation` is user and assistant turns; `all` adds tool output and the
  identifier shadow column. Switching corpus while typing is PR 7's policy; an
  engine that widened on a miss would make a result impossible to reproduce
  from its own request.
- Pagination is an offset into one ranked list, fenced by the index generation
  and by a hash of everything that changes the ranking. A cursor from another
  generation or another query is refused with a typed error rather than
  silently re-run. Ranking breaks every tie by session id, because a cursor
  indexes into that order and retrieval does not promise one.
- Snippets and source presence are paid for by the page, not the list. A
  snippet past the per-hit ceiling is cut on a code point, never between `[[`
  and its `]]`, and flagged on the hit.
- Source presence is read from the `files` table. No stat on the query path,
  and no `missing`: only a proven deletion may claim one, and this read cannot
  prove it.
- `SESSION_SEARCH_CANDIDATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT` is an option, not a constant, and
  the result says when the limit was what cut the answer.
- The engine is the only caller of `store.warm()`, on first search.

Library only: no IPC, no settings, no Electron, nothing constructs it in
production.

* perf(ai-vault-search): measure what a query costs and what the candidate limit buys

Two corpora, because they answer different questions. The 10.5 MB / 40-session
corpus is what the scope split costs a reader: conversation is about 1.6x
faster at p50 and 3.4x at p95 than the full corpus, which is the argument for
the second FTS table being the one a keystroke can afford.

The candidate limit needs more sessions than the limit before it costs
anything, so it is swept over 2,500 one-turn transcripts with every session
matching. Limits are interleaved sample by sample: run back to back, the first
configuration pays for every page the OS cache had not seen and the ordering
alone moved p95 further than the limit did.

The doc says plainly what these numbers do not cover. They are cost, not
relevance; the MRR figures quoted beside the BM25 weights and the identifier
shadow column come from a shoot-out over real transcripts and cannot be
reproduced from this repository.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): key a page once per search, and report reachable pages honestly

The page key was hashed twice per search, once to decode the incoming cursor
and once to mint the outgoing one. The benchmark's reachable-page figure was
clamped against a constant that could never bind; it is the limit over the page
size and nothing else.

* test(ai-vault-search): pin the two engine seams nothing was holding

The warm wiring and the query-length cap were both written and neither was
observable. A spy pins that a search is what warms the store, and the cap is
pinned through the one input the planner's own term limit does not already
bound: a single enormous token, where the cut is what decides whether the term
matches the indexed one at all.

* fix(ai-vault-search): fence the generation against writers this process cannot see

The generation was cached in memory and moved only on this store's own writes,
and the bump itself was a read-then-write outside any transaction. Two handles
on one file is the normal case once PR 3 lands: the indexer writes in the
scanner child while an engine reads elsewhere. A reader would see that writer's
deletions while its own generation stood still, honour a stale cursor, and skip
a session; two writers could mint one generation for two snapshots.

`generation` now reads `meta` on every call, and the bump is a single
`ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE ... + 1` inside the transaction that makes the change.
That closes the crash hole the bump-on-open existed for, so opening a store no
longer invalidates anyone's cursor.

Only a change to what a read returns counts. Retiring a path the index never
held hides nothing, and the row deletes that drain a tombstone take away rows
that were already invisible: bumping there would refuse a cursor every 256 rows
and leave pagination unusable for as long as indexing ran.

Also drops redaction from the query log, following PR 2's decision to store
transcript content as written; the module it called no longer exists.

* fix(ai-vault-search): answer from a version-1 index, and keep a repaired literal whole

Two smaller findings.

An engine can be handed a connection to a version-1 file that another handle is
still answering from, and this PR is what first makes that reachable. It now
probes once for the two tables version 2 added and names what it cannot serve
on every result, instead of throwing at the first query that reaches for a
vocabulary that is not there. The route ladder simply skips its repair rung.
Which process may unlink and rebuild the index is PR 3b's decision and is not
solved here.

Typo repair re-planned the corrected query from scratch, and a corrected
spelling can read as prose even when what was typed was a literal:
`parseJsonn(the, data)` has the punctuation, `parsejson the data` does not, so
the re-plan dropped `the` as a stop word. The repaired query searched for less
than was asked and `repairedTerms` reported a body nobody typed. The re-plan is
now told what the original decided, because a repair changes spellings, not the
query's character.

`repairedTerms` is documented as the whole body the repaired plan ran, with the
index's own case-folded spelling for the terms it corrected.

* fix(ai-vault-search): make repo: and path: mean one thing in the list and the index

The engine said `repo:` and `path:` a second time, in SQL, and SQL cannot say
them. LIKE folds ASCII and nothing else, so `path:CAFÉ` missed `café`; the
engine searched `cwd_key` while the panel searches the working directory and
the transcript path, so `path:jsonl` matched every session in the panel and
none in the index; and the engine compared one path segment where the panel
compares the last two, so `repo:orca/session-search` missed. All four
reproduce in both directions.

So there is one definition now, not two that resemble each other.
`matchesAiVaultQueryOperators` moves into the shared filter module beside the
panel that already owned the semantics, the panel calls it, and the engine
applies it over the rows it retrieved. SQL keeps only what it can express
exactly: the `cwd_key` prefix range for `scopePaths`.

`parseVaultQuery` now parses through `splitAiVaultSearchQuery`, so one parser
decides what an operator is. Its existing tests pass unchanged; four degenerate
shapes do answer differently and are pinned as decisions rather than left to be
discovered.

Two consequences worth stating. The operators are conjunctive now, because that
is what the panel has always done, where the engine had been ORing within a
key. And the operator-only page walks newest sessions in bounded pages applying
the predicate, rather than taking one cut of the newest N and filtering it,
which would have answered `repo:x` with nothing on a busy index.

* docs(ai-vault-search): re-measure the query benchmark after the operator change

repo: and path: moved out of SQL, so the operator-only row measures something
different now and the note that it is a range seek was wrong. The rest of the
table is re-measured on an idle machine: the previous run's p95 column was
mostly contention, which is why conversation looked 3.4x faster at p95 rather
than the 1.7x it actually is.

Adds what this PR does not settle: which process may unlink and rebuild the
index is PR 3b's, and PR 4 is only the first thing that makes reading it
reachable.

* fix(ai-vault-search): stop reporting a search that gave up as a search that finished

The operator-only walk stops at a scan ceiling as well as at a full candidate
set, and only the first of those reached the result. A query whose one match
sat past the ceiling came back with no hits and truncated.candidates false,
which is the engine claiming there is nothing to find when what happened is
that it stopped looking. Retrieval now says why it stopped, because it is the
only layer that knows, and the count it used to return could not distinguish
the two cases.

The cursor fence stays as it is: any published read moves the generation, so an
outstanding cursor is refused, and that is what F11 asked for. What was wrong
was the claim next to the row-delete skip that pagination stays usable through
indexing. It does not, and the engine now says so. The rejection carries the
generation the cursor was minted in and the one the index is at, so a caller
can tell a moved index from a bad cursor and re-issue page one without showing
anyone an error.

The capability probe was nearly dead code, since every store opens through a
function that rebuilds a stale file. It is not dead, because two handles can be
open on one file, so the claim is corrected rather than the probe deleted. It
now runs per search: a verdict cached in the constructor is wrong in both
directions once another handle rebuilds the index.

Also says why the row-delete loop may skip the bump: those messages keep
batch_id NULL and stay in visible_messages, so what makes them unreachable is
their session's tombstone, and the read ratchet is what keeps every reader
joining the view that applies it.

* fix(ai-vault-search): restore the panel's reading of a quote that does not end a word

Unifying the two parsers changed panel behaviour on nine of twenty probed
shapes, not the three previously pinned. Six of the nine were regressions, all
from one rule: the shared parser refused a quoted span whose closing quote was
not followed by a space, so `"a b"c` and `repo:"a"b` became single terms
carrying their own quote characters, which match nothing.

The rule was justified as what stops the apostrophes in `it's a repo:orca
thing's` from swallowing the operator between them. It is not: a span only ever
opens at a token start, and the quote in `it's` is not at one. Dropping the
rule restores all six shapes to what the panel has always done and leaves that
protection intact.

Three changes remain and are kept because the old answer was worse in each: an
operator with an empty quoted value is dropped rather than filtering on `""`
and silently emptying the list, and a bare pair of quotes reads as an empty
term rather than as the two characters. Each is pinned with a test that says
which behaviour it is and why.

* fix(ai-vault-search): trim operator values, and report a query the engine had to cut

Three lows.

`repo:"  "` survived as a term and matched no label, silently emptying the
list, which is the exact defect the empty-value drop exists to prevent wearing
different clothes. Operator values are trimmed, and a whitespace-only one drops
like an empty one. The substring matcher's copy of a free-text term is trimmed
too, so `"  "` reads as the empty term already does; the span kept for FTS is
still the query verbatim.

Two caps upstream of retrieval fired silently: the planner searches at most 48
terms, and the engine cuts the query at 512 characters. A 56-term query whose
only match was the 56th came back with no hits and nothing truncated, which
claims there is nothing to find. `truncated.query` now says when either fired,
alongside the candidate and snippet flags that already did.

Every cursor refusal now carries the generation the index is at, which the
engine knows before it looks at the cursor, and the generation the cursor
claimed wherever that survived parsing. The doc says exactly when each is
present instead of leaving absence unexplained.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): read the tables the simplified index writes, and own the fence

PR 2 deleted the visibility views, the staging tables and the store's
generation, so this reads `sessions` and `messages` directly and carries the
three schema objects only a query needs — the vocabulary, the query log, and
the triggers that move the generation — as its own extension over the store's
schema.

The fence is now three triggers on `files`, because every transaction the store
opens that can change what a search returns writes that table and nothing else
does; retention's orphan drain is the one write path that touches neither, and
it is the one that must not bump. The triggers live in the file, so a writer in
another process moves the generation without knowing a reader exists.

A message row can now outlive its session row until the drain reaches it, so
the snippet read joins `sessions` and the typo repair asks for a live posting
instead of trusting the vocabulary's document count.

The engine takes a connection rather than a store: PR 2's store keeps its
connection private, and which process may open or rebuild the index file is
PR 3b's decision, not a query engine's.

* perf(ai-vault-search): price the second FTS table, and re-measure without warmup

Open decision 3. A column filter over `messages_fts` returns the identical
rowid set as `conversation_fts` — checked here per query rather than assumed —
so the table exists for latency alone. On a 105 MB corpus at both ends of the
tool-output band, the column-filtered form costs 1.16-1.42x at p95, against a
bar of 2x, so the recommendation is to delete it.

The shoot-out writes its own corpus because the answer turns on the one
property the shared generator fixes: how much of a transcript is tool output.
Half the tokens in that output are words the conversation also uses, which is
deliberately generous to the table under question.

The doc records the number that argues the other way. PR 2 priced the table at
about a quarter of the index on a corpus whose tool output is 56% of its
message text; on a tool-heavy one it is 6.7-11%, because `messages_fts` grows
with the tool text and the second table does not.

Page warmup is not re-added. The measurement behind it was on a 4 GB index,
removing it moves this corpus by less than the run-to-run spread, and a
cancellable background pass needs a lifecycle a query library does not have.

* test(ai-vault-search): pin that an append moves the generation a cursor is fenced by

* refactor(ai-vault-search): answer the conversation scope with a column filter

PR 2 deleted `conversation_fts` on the strength of this PR's shoot-out, so the
scope is a column filter over the one FTS table now. `ftsTableFor` is gone; a
scope is a pair of `scopedExpression` and `scopedWeights`, and the table name
no longer travels through the engine, the snippet builder or a hit.

The filter is parenthesised, and that is the whole of it: `{cols}: (a AND b)`
binds both terms, while `{cols}: a AND b` binds only the first and searches
tool output for the rest. A test drives an AND whose second term lives only in
tool output through both scopes.

The snippet keeps one guard, not two. Its column list and its expression were
each hiding the other's mistakes — a tool-only row was unreachable through
either — so the list is the same four columns for every scope and the scoped
expression is what makes a conversation snippet impossible to draw out of tool
output. Dropping it now leaks that row, which a test catches.

One behaviour the deleted table did not have, pinned rather than wished away:
bm25 normalises by the whole row's length and has no per-column length, so two
rows with identical prose score differently when one also holds tool output.
The rowid set is unchanged; the order within it can move.

Re-measured on the shipping schema. The conversation scope is 1.2-1.4x faster
than `all` at every rung, and the index is 57 MB rather than about 150 MB at
93% tool output, because a tool row is now capped at 3,072 characters.

* fix(ai-vault-search): repair a spelling inside the scope that will answer it

Typo repair read `messages_vocab` and probed `messages_fts` with no column
filter, so tool output decided whether a conversation-scoped query was
repaired, in both directions. A tool row carrying the misspelling made the
query look correctly spelled and suppressed the repair; a tool row carrying a
rare word became the suggestion, naming in `repairedTerms` a string from a
column the scope will never show. Both reproduced against a control index that
differs by exactly that one row.

The vocabulary proposes and a scoped count disposes. fts5vocab is per table and
cannot be column-filtered, so every decision that reaches the plan — already
spelled right, eligible, and which of two equally close candidates wins — now
comes from a `messages_fts MATCH` under the same filter retrieval uses, joined
to `sessions`.

That also takes the vocabulary's `doc` out of the ranking, which is the half of
the drain defect that belongs here: `doc` counts rows whose session a purge has
already cut loose, so reclaiming them changed which word a query was repaired
to. Candidates are ordered by term now, because the ordering decides which of
them survive the scan limit, and ties on similarity go to the more common word
counted live rather than to the vocabulary's number.

The cost is one bounded count per candidate examined, at most eight per prefix,
and only for a term the scope has no posting for at all.

* fix(ai-vault-search): fence the rows a purge reclaims after it cuts a session loose

Retention's second half deletes from `messages` alone and touched neither
`files` nor `sessions`, so it moved no generation. The argument was that those
rows answer nothing, which was true of retrieval and not of the engine: the
typo repair's dictionary is a view over the FTS b-tree and listed them, so a
drain running between two pages swapped the repair under a cursor that was
still honoured, and a search that had answered stopped answering.

The commit before this one fixes that at its source by counting live rows. It
does not make the drain provably inert — the vocabulary still decides which
candidates survive its scan limit, and reclaiming a term's last row moves where
that limit cuts — so the fence is what covers the rest.

A fourth trigger, on `messages`, with a `WHEN` clause that is the whole reason
it is affordable: a replace and a `removeFile` delete a session's rows while
its `sessions` row still stands, so neither fires, and both already bump
through `files`. Only the drain deletes a row whose session is gone.

The price is named rather than avoided: a cursor outstanding while a purge runs
is now refused once per batch, which `SessionSearchCursorError` reports as
`stale-generation` so a caller re-issues page one. The test that pinned the old
contract is replaced by one for the new one, and by one proving a replace still
does not fire it.

* fix(ai-vault-search): tell a highlight from a transcript that contains brackets

The snippet builder asked each of a row's four columns for a marked snippet and
showed the first whose text contained `[[`. Transcripts contain `[[`: a bash
`if [[ -f … ]]`, numpy's `[[1, 2], [3, 4]]`. A row matching only in tool output
was shown its user turn instead, with nothing highlighted in it, and the
any-column fallback an identifier-only match depends on was unreachable behind
the same collision.

Whether a column matched is now the difference between two renderings of the
same text: `snippet(…, MARK, MARK, …)` beside `snippet(…, '', '', …)`. Content
cannot forge a difference between those two, because it is the same content
either way.

The marks FTS5 inserts are private-use code points, rewritten to the public
`[[` and `]]` once, at the end. That is for the other decision that has to tell
a mark from content: the truncation refuses to cut between an open mark and its
close, and a transcript's own bracket used to move that cut.

* fix(ai-vault-search): cut a query on a code point and bind ids in batches

Two small ones from the review's not-routed list.

`query.slice(0, 512)` can land between the halves of a surrogate pair, leaving
a lone half that matches nothing and that a caller cannot echo back. The reader
already has `sliceAtCodeUnitLimit` for exactly this.

`loadSessions` bound one parameter per candidate id in a single statement. The
list is as long as the candidate limit, the tuning doc invites a host to raise
that limit, and SQLite's `SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER` is 999 on builds older
than 3.32 — so one settings change away from `too many SQL variables`. Read in
batches of 500, leaving room for the filter's own bound values.

* docs(ai-vault-search): price the repair rung, and record what is left open

Typo repair is the one rung whose cost tracks the vocabulary rather than the
result, and it only runs for a term the scope has no posting for. Measured over
1.6 M distinct terms: 10 ms for one unknown term, 387 ms for a 480-character
query of thirty-nine of them.

The scoped-count fix made that cheaper rather than dearer, from 737 ms, because
ordering the vocabulary scan by term drops the sort `doc DESC` needed and the
counts it adds are at most eight bounded probes per prefix. A cap on unknown
terms per query is a follow-up in the split plan, with the five other items the
final review raised and did not route.

* test(ai-vault-search): make each snippet mark mechanism answer for itself

Two mechanisms landed together and hid each other: choosing a column by
comparing a marked rendering against an unmarked one, and marking with
private-use code points instead of `[[`. Either alone fixed the bracket repro,
so neither had a mutation against it — the same masking the snippet's two
column guards had a round ago.

They do different jobs, so both stay and each gets the test that needs it. A
transcript holding a private-use code point of its own is what the comparison
is for; agent output carries Nerd Font glyphs from that block. A snippet past
the character ceiling with a bracket after its last real mark is what the
private-use marks are for, because the truncation has to find that mark by
searching the text.

The two one-line fixes get honest framing rather than a mutation neither can
have. A lone surrogate is not a token character, so the planner drops it either
way and the safe cut is hygiene. And no SQLite this stack runs refuses 1,100
bound ids — 32,766 has been the floor since 3.32 — so the batch is about
owning the ceiling here rather than rescuing a reachable failure.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): keep the scope's expression with the other expressions

Making the typo repair ask its questions in the search's own scope put an
import from retrieval into it, and retrieval already owns the repair — a cycle
the native audit catches. `scopedExpression` belongs beside `phraseExpression`,
`andExpression` and `orExpression` anyway: it builds a MATCH expression, and
two callers now need it. The bm25 weights stay in retrieval, where the SQL that
uses them is.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim da5d555259 refactor(agent-status): delete the runtime's retained row store (PR 1b) (#19785)
* docs(agent-status): plan PR 1b at file level

Names the five RuntimeAgentRowStore call sites and what each becomes, why
terminalHandle has to be stamped before the store can go, and the one
intended behavior change.

* feat(agent-status): stamp the pane terminal handle on hook-server rows

The runtime's retained row store carried the pty binding two readers need. Put
that fact on the row that already owns the pane instead, resolved through the
same lookup the renderer-facing IPC boundary runs, so the two surfaces cannot
disagree about which terminal a pane is.

Carried forward when a later write resolves no handle (only main's OSC parse
can), and never persisted: a handle belongs to the runtime that issued it.

* refactor(agent-status): route the session-tabs republish off the store

`retain()` was not only a duplicate store: its boolean return was the signal
that republished `session.tabs` for a status-only transition, which no title
change covers (#7970). `hook-status-session-tabs-invalidation.ts` already
mirrors that change set plus hook restore provenance, so route the signal off
the store rather than keep a second comparator.

Adds the status-drop arm a user dismissal emits, which the pane-clear fan-out
deliberately skips — now load-bearing, because a dismissed row leaves the
listing at once.

Installed on both hosts. orcad had neither the OSC producer nor this signal, so
its runtime observed agent status and published it nowhere; deleting the
retained copy without wiring it would list no PTY agents there at all.

* refactor(agent-status): delete the runtime's duplicate retained row store

`RuntimeAgentRowStore` held the same payload the hook server already holds, so
the same pane could legitimately read differently in the sidebar, in
`worktree ps`, and on the phone. Both of its readers move onto the store's
snapshot in `runtime-hook-agent-row-selection.ts`, and
`collectRuntimeWorktreePtyAgentSources` loses the retained-versus-hook
reconciliation that only existed because two stores could disagree.

`ConnectedPtyEvidence` trades its flat pty-id set for `ptyIdByTerminalHandle`,
which is how a row still resolves the connected PTY behind it — the
working-terminal rollup's match key, and the last rescue for a row whose pane
binding a controller incarnation nulled under it.

The one intended behavior change: a row the user dismisses on the desktop
leaves `worktree ps` and mobile at once instead of lingering until the pty
exits. One store means one dismissal.

The suites written against the retained store are rewired to a real
AgentHookServer rather than deleted, so each still asserts the listing
behavior it named.

* docs(agent-status): record what PR 1b landed

Past tense, plus two corrections to the plan: `terminalHandle` is not the pty
id (they are different identifiers, and the explicit-status reader was already
comparing against a real handle), and the legacy numeric pane key is a
consequence the plan did not name.

Neil 6bb2b0c6d7 test(runtime): capture real Antigravity transcripts — the detector is inverted on live output (#19983)
* test(runtime): capture real agent PTY transcripts before rewriting Antigravity readiness

Antigravity readiness has been written five times against a five-line screen
typed from memory. There is no Antigravity transcript in this repository, so
every attempt was a guess tested against another guess. This adds the recorder,
the protocol and the fixture-driven suite so the sixth attempt can be written
against evidence, and changes no detector logic.

- config/scripts/capture-agent-pty-transcript.mjs records a live agent session
  through a real PTY, escapes and wrapping intact. Ctrl-] is consumed by the
  recorder and never forwarded, which is the only way to end a capture while a
  dialog still owns the screen.
- config/scripts/pty-transcript-secret-scan.mjs finds account identifiers and
  credentials, redacts them with same-length placeholders so wrapping survives,
  and recognises its own placeholders so a scrubbed file verifies clean.
- src/main/runtime/antigravity-readiness-transcripts.test.ts asserts a verdict
  per transcript and skips by name until the transcripts land, with a
  doc-coverage ratchet and a guard that a fixture contains escape bytes.

The escape-byte guard exists because the three cursor-agent fixtures carry a
comment claiming they were captured verbatim through Orca, yet contain zero ESC
bytes and zero carriage returns. That comment is corrected here to say what
those files are; the fixtures and the rules built on them are untouched.

* test(runtime): capture real Antigravity transcripts, and pin what they prove

`agy` 1.1.25 turned out to be installed, so the transcripts this scaffold was
built for now exist. Six are recorded from live sessions and committed; the
rest are named as skipped, because reaching them would mean signing the
operator out or deleting their config.

The captures invert the story. On real output the shipped detector refuses a
genuinely ready screen and accepts a live `/model` picker:

- Antigravity paints a block-glyph logo down the left, so the model row never
  starts a line. `startsWith('gemini', trimmedStart)` cannot match a real ready
  screen, on any account or model. Stripping the logo flips the same screen to
  ready, which means a decorative glyph decides readiness today.
- The `/model` picker prints `Gemini 3.x Flash` one per line, at line start, and
  a bare `>` composer sits earlier in the tail. Both halves of the rule are
  satisfied while a dialog owns the screen.
- For an API-key user the identity row reads `Gemini API key` — no `@`, no
  domain — and `AGY_CLI_HIDE_ACCOUNT_INFO=1` removes the row entirely. The
  account-row requirement of attempts 4 and 5 can never pass for those users.
- The banner is printed once and never reprinted after a dialog is dismissed, so
  `headerIndex` cannot be the ordering anchor.

Four suite cases are pinned as KNOWN DEFECT: they assert what the detector does
so CI stays honest instead of permanently red, and flip to failing the moment
someone fixes it. No detector logic changed.

The recorder gains `--send "<ms>:<text>"` because a dialog capture has to be
driven and an unattended run has no TTY, and the scrub scanner gains a UUID rule
because agy prints a resumable conversation id on exit.

* test(runtime): capture agy mid-turn, and make the scan file reviewable

Answers the busy-frame question a P1 review raised against attempt six, with
two new captures from a live turn.

At the frame level the review is right: a busy frame parks the caret with the
same bytes as an idle one, `CR ESC[2A ESC[2C`, and the only differing row —
`esc to cancel` versus `? for shortcuts` — is erased by that park.

At the retained-tail level it does not reproduce. Each spinner tick is its own
repaint with its own `CR ESC[2A`, two rows higher than the frame's, which
splices the composer away: a live turn's tail ends on `⣟  Generating...`, with
no bare caret to match. A constructed input that keeps the park and edits only
the status text is not faithful, because a live turn has a spinner row
repainting below the composer.

The residual is the gap between a frame park and the next tick, where the tail
does end on the bare caret. Quiescence-gated paths are safe there because ticks
keep arriving; text-only paths are not, and for those the capture supports one
clause: a braille glyph on the last visible line means working. That predicate
already exists here for cursor-agent and should be reused, scoped to the last
line — a first-run transcript prints `⠾ Signing in...` during startup.

Also in this commit, from the same review:

- pty-transcript-secret-scan.mjs held raw 0x00-0x1f bytes in a character class,
  so the one file gating real PTY data into history was binary to git and
  unreviewable in a diff. It now tests codepoints, which the formatter cannot
  fold back into control bytes.
- Pin `src/main/runtime/__fixtures__/*.txt` as -text. A Windows checkout would
  otherwise normalise line endings and rewrite the CR bytes that make these
  files evidence.

The recorder now stops appending at the stop moment rather than through
shutdown: an agent repaints an idle frame on its way out, which was overwriting
the mid-turn state the capture existed to record.

* test(tooling): allowlist the transcript scan test in the batch-shim ratchet

pty-transcript-secret-scan.test.mjs asserts that the capture recorder routes
an 'agy.cmd' shim through cmd.exe, so the shim literal it names is the
assertion, not a spawn. Fits the existing assert-on-shim-files category.

Jinwoo Hong cf7408a37f feat(ai-vault-search): session search query engine over the index (#19750)
* feat(ai-vault-search): give the index a generation a page cursor can be fenced by

A search page is a slice of one ranked list, so a cursor only means anything
against the snapshot that produced it. The store now keeps a monotone
generation in `meta`, bumped by every mutation that can change which rows a
read returns, and starts a new one on open so a write whose bump never landed
cannot leave a cursor pointing at content that is already gone.

Schema version 2 adds the two tables the query layer needs: `messages_vocab`
(fts5vocab over messages_fts, the typo repair's whole dictionary) and
`search_log`. Both are pure additions and the index is a cache, so a version-1
file is dropped and rebuilt exactly as any other mismatch is.

* feat(ai-vault-search): plan a query the way the index tokenized it

The planner unfolds the tokenizer contract instead of asking SQLite: same
boundaries as `unicode61 tokenchars '_.-/+'`, pinned against real fts5vocab
output so a query can be planned without a round trip. It decides the route
ladder's first rung (literal shape), strips stop words from prose but never
from a literal, and fans an identifier out into its pieces for the OR fallback.

Typo repair uses the index's own vocabulary as its dictionary, so it can never
suggest a term the index does not hold. Its exact-match probe now joins
`visible_messages`: `messages_vocab` is a view over the FTS b-tree and still
lists staged and tombstoned terms, and the PR 2 read ratchet is right to
demand the join.

`splitAiVaultSearchQuery` is the index's reading of repo: / path:. It keeps
operator case, which the panel folds and cwd_key must not; a census test pins
the two parsers to the same answer about what is an operator until PR 7 moves
the panel onto this one.

* feat(ai-vault-search): narrow a search the way the sidebar keys a folder

Every caller-supplied narrowing in one place, so retrieval, the operator-only
page and the session load cannot drift apart: agents, an updated-at floor, the
retention cutoff, scope paths, and the repo: / path: operators.

Scope keying goes through PR 2's `cwdKey`, which is the sidebar's
`folderGroupKey` without its prefix, rather than the original branch's second
spelling. That drops the branch's WSL distro qualification, which PR 2 removed
on purpose, and it makes the filesystem root a key that already ends in a
separator, so the child-prefix range is built from the key rather than by
appending one; `//` sorts below every real child and would scope the root to
nothing.

Engine types land here too, under src/main and not src/shared: nothing in this
PR is a wire type, and PR 5 lifts what a caller may receive.

* feat(ai-vault-search): rank, page and answer a session search

`SessionSearchEngine.search()` over the PR 2 store: route ladder (phrase, AND,
typo repair, OR), BM25 weights per corpus, one hit per session, fork folding,
and a page.

- `scope` picks the corpus and the engine never second-guesses it.
  `conversation` is user and assistant turns; `all` adds tool output and the
  identifier shadow column. Switching corpus while typing is PR 7's policy; an
  engine that widened on a miss would make a result impossible to reproduce
  from its own request.
- Pagination is an offset into one ranked list, fenced by the index generation
  and by a hash of everything that changes the ranking. A cursor from another
  generation or another query is refused with a typed error rather than
  silently re-run. Ranking breaks every tie by session id, because a cursor
  indexes into that order and retrieval does not promise one.
- Snippets and source presence are paid for by the page, not the list. A
  snippet past the per-hit ceiling is cut on a code point, never between `[[`
  and its `]]`, and flagged on the hit.
- Source presence is read from the `files` table. No stat on the query path,
  and no `missing`: only a proven deletion may claim one, and this read cannot
  prove it.
- `SESSION_SEARCH_CANDIDATE_LIMIT_DEFAULT` is an option, not a constant, and
  the result says when the limit was what cut the answer.
- The engine is the only caller of `store.warm()`, on first search.

Library only: no IPC, no settings, no Electron, nothing constructs it in
production.

* perf(ai-vault-search): measure what a query costs and what the candidate limit buys

Two corpora, because they answer different questions. The 10.5 MB / 40-session
corpus is what the scope split costs a reader: conversation is about 1.6x
faster at p50 and 3.4x at p95 than the full corpus, which is the argument for
the second FTS table being the one a keystroke can afford.

The candidate limit needs more sessions than the limit before it costs
anything, so it is swept over 2,500 one-turn transcripts with every session
matching. Limits are interleaved sample by sample: run back to back, the first
configuration pays for every page the OS cache had not seen and the ordering
alone moved p95 further than the limit did.

The doc says plainly what these numbers do not cover. They are cost, not
relevance; the MRR figures quoted beside the BM25 weights and the identifier
shadow column come from a shoot-out over real transcripts and cannot be
reproduced from this repository.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): key a page once per search, and report reachable pages honestly

The page key was hashed twice per search, once to decode the incoming cursor
and once to mint the outgoing one. The benchmark's reachable-page figure was
clamped against a constant that could never bind; it is the limit over the page
size and nothing else.

* test(ai-vault-search): pin the two engine seams nothing was holding

The warm wiring and the query-length cap were both written and neither was
observable. A spy pins that a search is what warms the store, and the cap is
pinned through the one input the planner's own term limit does not already
bound: a single enormous token, where the cut is what decides whether the term
matches the indexed one at all.

* fix(ai-vault-search): fence the generation against writers this process cannot see

The generation was cached in memory and moved only on this store's own writes,
and the bump itself was a read-then-write outside any transaction. Two handles
on one file is the normal case once PR 3 lands: the indexer writes in the
scanner child while an engine reads elsewhere. A reader would see that writer's
deletions while its own generation stood still, honour a stale cursor, and skip
a session; two writers could mint one generation for two snapshots.

`generation` now reads `meta` on every call, and the bump is a single
`ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE ... + 1` inside the transaction that makes the change.
That closes the crash hole the bump-on-open existed for, so opening a store no
longer invalidates anyone's cursor.

Only a change to what a read returns counts. Retiring a path the index never
held hides nothing, and the row deletes that drain a tombstone take away rows
that were already invisible: bumping there would refuse a cursor every 256 rows
and leave pagination unusable for as long as indexing ran.

Also drops redaction from the query log, following PR 2's decision to store
transcript content as written; the module it called no longer exists.

* fix(ai-vault-search): answer from a version-1 index, and keep a repaired literal whole

Two smaller findings.

An engine can be handed a connection to a version-1 file that another handle is
still answering from, and this PR is what first makes that reachable. It now
probes once for the two tables version 2 added and names what it cannot serve
on every result, instead of throwing at the first query that reaches for a
vocabulary that is not there. The route ladder simply skips its repair rung.
Which process may unlink and rebuild the index is PR 3b's decision and is not
solved here.

Typo repair re-planned the corrected query from scratch, and a corrected
spelling can read as prose even when what was typed was a literal:
`parseJsonn(the, data)` has the punctuation, `parsejson the data` does not, so
the re-plan dropped `the` as a stop word. The repaired query searched for less
than was asked and `repairedTerms` reported a body nobody typed. The re-plan is
now told what the original decided, because a repair changes spellings, not the
query's character.

`repairedTerms` is documented as the whole body the repaired plan ran, with the
index's own case-folded spelling for the terms it corrected.

* fix(ai-vault-search): make repo: and path: mean one thing in the list and the index

The engine said `repo:` and `path:` a second time, in SQL, and SQL cannot say
them. LIKE folds ASCII and nothing else, so `path:CAFÉ` missed `café`; the
engine searched `cwd_key` while the panel searches the working directory and
the transcript path, so `path:jsonl` matched every session in the panel and
none in the index; and the engine compared one path segment where the panel
compares the last two, so `repo:orca/session-search` missed. All four
reproduce in both directions.

So there is one definition now, not two that resemble each other.
`matchesAiVaultQueryOperators` moves into the shared filter module beside the
panel that already owned the semantics, the panel calls it, and the engine
applies it over the rows it retrieved. SQL keeps only what it can express
exactly: the `cwd_key` prefix range for `scopePaths`.

`parseVaultQuery` now parses through `splitAiVaultSearchQuery`, so one parser
decides what an operator is. Its existing tests pass unchanged; four degenerate
shapes do answer differently and are pinned as decisions rather than left to be
discovered.

Two consequences worth stating. The operators are conjunctive now, because that
is what the panel has always done, where the engine had been ORing within a
key. And the operator-only page walks newest sessions in bounded pages applying
the predicate, rather than taking one cut of the newest N and filtering it,
which would have answered `repo:x` with nothing on a busy index.

* docs(ai-vault-search): re-measure the query benchmark after the operator change

repo: and path: moved out of SQL, so the operator-only row measures something
different now and the note that it is a range seek was wrong. The rest of the
table is re-measured on an idle machine: the previous run's p95 column was
mostly contention, which is why conversation looked 3.4x faster at p95 rather
than the 1.7x it actually is.

Adds what this PR does not settle: which process may unlink and rebuild the
index is PR 3b's, and PR 4 is only the first thing that makes reading it
reachable.

* fix(ai-vault-search): stop reporting a search that gave up as a search that finished

The operator-only walk stops at a scan ceiling as well as at a full candidate
set, and only the first of those reached the result. A query whose one match
sat past the ceiling came back with no hits and truncated.candidates false,
which is the engine claiming there is nothing to find when what happened is
that it stopped looking. Retrieval now says why it stopped, because it is the
only layer that knows, and the count it used to return could not distinguish
the two cases.

The cursor fence stays as it is: any published read moves the generation, so an
outstanding cursor is refused, and that is what F11 asked for. What was wrong
was the claim next to the row-delete skip that pagination stays usable through
indexing. It does not, and the engine now says so. The rejection carries the
generation the cursor was minted in and the one the index is at, so a caller
can tell a moved index from a bad cursor and re-issue page one without showing
anyone an error.

The capability probe was nearly dead code, since every store opens through a
function that rebuilds a stale file. It is not dead, because two handles can be
open on one file, so the claim is corrected rather than the probe deleted. It
now runs per search: a verdict cached in the constructor is wrong in both
directions once another handle rebuilds the index.

Also says why the row-delete loop may skip the bump: those messages keep
batch_id NULL and stay in visible_messages, so what makes them unreachable is
their session's tombstone, and the read ratchet is what keeps every reader
joining the view that applies it.

* fix(ai-vault-search): restore the panel's reading of a quote that does not end a word

Unifying the two parsers changed panel behaviour on nine of twenty probed
shapes, not the three previously pinned. Six of the nine were regressions, all
from one rule: the shared parser refused a quoted span whose closing quote was
not followed by a space, so `"a b"c` and `repo:"a"b` became single terms
carrying their own quote characters, which match nothing.

The rule was justified as what stops the apostrophes in `it's a repo:orca
thing's` from swallowing the operator between them. It is not: a span only ever
opens at a token start, and the quote in `it's` is not at one. Dropping the
rule restores all six shapes to what the panel has always done and leaves that
protection intact.

Three changes remain and are kept because the old answer was worse in each: an
operator with an empty quoted value is dropped rather than filtering on `""`
and silently emptying the list, and a bare pair of quotes reads as an empty
term rather than as the two characters. Each is pinned with a test that says
which behaviour it is and why.

* fix(ai-vault-search): trim operator values, and report a query the engine had to cut

Three lows.

`repo:"  "` survived as a term and matched no label, silently emptying the
list, which is the exact defect the empty-value drop exists to prevent wearing
different clothes. Operator values are trimmed, and a whitespace-only one drops
like an empty one. The substring matcher's copy of a free-text term is trimmed
too, so `"  "` reads as the empty term already does; the span kept for FTS is
still the query verbatim.

Two caps upstream of retrieval fired silently: the planner searches at most 48
terms, and the engine cuts the query at 512 characters. A 56-term query whose
only match was the 56th came back with no hits and nothing truncated, which
claims there is nothing to find. `truncated.query` now says when either fired,
alongside the candidate and snippet flags that already did.

Every cursor refusal now carries the generation the index is at, which the
engine knows before it looks at the cursor, and the generation the cursor
claimed wherever that survived parsing. The doc says exactly when each is
present instead of leaving absence unexplained.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): read the tables the simplified index writes, and own the fence

PR 2 deleted the visibility views, the staging tables and the store's
generation, so this reads `sessions` and `messages` directly and carries the
three schema objects only a query needs — the vocabulary, the query log, and
the triggers that move the generation — as its own extension over the store's
schema.

The fence is now three triggers on `files`, because every transaction the store
opens that can change what a search returns writes that table and nothing else
does; retention's orphan drain is the one write path that touches neither, and
it is the one that must not bump. The triggers live in the file, so a writer in
another process moves the generation without knowing a reader exists.

A message row can now outlive its session row until the drain reaches it, so
the snippet read joins `sessions` and the typo repair asks for a live posting
instead of trusting the vocabulary's document count.

The engine takes a connection rather than a store: PR 2's store keeps its
connection private, and which process may open or rebuild the index file is
PR 3b's decision, not a query engine's.

* perf(ai-vault-search): price the second FTS table, and re-measure without warmup

Open decision 3. A column filter over `messages_fts` returns the identical
rowid set as `conversation_fts` — checked here per query rather than assumed —
so the table exists for latency alone. On a 105 MB corpus at both ends of the
tool-output band, the column-filtered form costs 1.16-1.42x at p95, against a
bar of 2x, so the recommendation is to delete it.

The shoot-out writes its own corpus because the answer turns on the one
property the shared generator fixes: how much of a transcript is tool output.
Half the tokens in that output are words the conversation also uses, which is
deliberately generous to the table under question.

The doc records the number that argues the other way. PR 2 priced the table at
about a quarter of the index on a corpus whose tool output is 56% of its
message text; on a tool-heavy one it is 6.7-11%, because `messages_fts` grows
with the tool text and the second table does not.

Page warmup is not re-added. The measurement behind it was on a 4 GB index,
removing it moves this corpus by less than the run-to-run spread, and a
cancellable background pass needs a lifecycle a query library does not have.

* test(ai-vault-search): pin that an append moves the generation a cursor is fenced by

* refactor(ai-vault-search): answer the conversation scope with a column filter

PR 2 deleted `conversation_fts` on the strength of this PR's shoot-out, so the
scope is a column filter over the one FTS table now. `ftsTableFor` is gone; a
scope is a pair of `scopedExpression` and `scopedWeights`, and the table name
no longer travels through the engine, the snippet builder or a hit.

The filter is parenthesised, and that is the whole of it: `{cols}: (a AND b)`
binds both terms, while `{cols}: a AND b` binds only the first and searches
tool output for the rest. A test drives an AND whose second term lives only in
tool output through both scopes.

The snippet keeps one guard, not two. Its column list and its expression were
each hiding the other's mistakes — a tool-only row was unreachable through
either — so the list is the same four columns for every scope and the scoped
expression is what makes a conversation snippet impossible to draw out of tool
output. Dropping it now leaks that row, which a test catches.

One behaviour the deleted table did not have, pinned rather than wished away:
bm25 normalises by the whole row's length and has no per-column length, so two
rows with identical prose score differently when one also holds tool output.
The rowid set is unchanged; the order within it can move.

Re-measured on the shipping schema. The conversation scope is 1.2-1.4x faster
than `all` at every rung, and the index is 57 MB rather than about 150 MB at
93% tool output, because a tool row is now capped at 3,072 characters.

* fix(ai-vault-search): repair a spelling inside the scope that will answer it

Typo repair read `messages_vocab` and probed `messages_fts` with no column
filter, so tool output decided whether a conversation-scoped query was
repaired, in both directions. A tool row carrying the misspelling made the
query look correctly spelled and suppressed the repair; a tool row carrying a
rare word became the suggestion, naming in `repairedTerms` a string from a
column the scope will never show. Both reproduced against a control index that
differs by exactly that one row.

The vocabulary proposes and a scoped count disposes. fts5vocab is per table and
cannot be column-filtered, so every decision that reaches the plan — already
spelled right, eligible, and which of two equally close candidates wins — now
comes from a `messages_fts MATCH` under the same filter retrieval uses, joined
to `sessions`.

That also takes the vocabulary's `doc` out of the ranking, which is the half of
the drain defect that belongs here: `doc` counts rows whose session a purge has
already cut loose, so reclaiming them changed which word a query was repaired
to. Candidates are ordered by term now, because the ordering decides which of
them survive the scan limit, and ties on similarity go to the more common word
counted live rather than to the vocabulary's number.

The cost is one bounded count per candidate examined, at most eight per prefix,
and only for a term the scope has no posting for at all.

* fix(ai-vault-search): fence the rows a purge reclaims after it cuts a session loose

Retention's second half deletes from `messages` alone and touched neither
`files` nor `sessions`, so it moved no generation. The argument was that those
rows answer nothing, which was true of retrieval and not of the engine: the
typo repair's dictionary is a view over the FTS b-tree and listed them, so a
drain running between two pages swapped the repair under a cursor that was
still honoured, and a search that had answered stopped answering.

The commit before this one fixes that at its source by counting live rows. It
does not make the drain provably inert — the vocabulary still decides which
candidates survive its scan limit, and reclaiming a term's last row moves where
that limit cuts — so the fence is what covers the rest.

A fourth trigger, on `messages`, with a `WHEN` clause that is the whole reason
it is affordable: a replace and a `removeFile` delete a session's rows while
its `sessions` row still stands, so neither fires, and both already bump
through `files`. Only the drain deletes a row whose session is gone.

The price is named rather than avoided: a cursor outstanding while a purge runs
is now refused once per batch, which `SessionSearchCursorError` reports as
`stale-generation` so a caller re-issues page one. The test that pinned the old
contract is replaced by one for the new one, and by one proving a replace still
does not fire it.

* fix(ai-vault-search): tell a highlight from a transcript that contains brackets

The snippet builder asked each of a row's four columns for a marked snippet and
showed the first whose text contained `[[`. Transcripts contain `[[`: a bash
`if [[ -f … ]]`, numpy's `[[1, 2], [3, 4]]`. A row matching only in tool output
was shown its user turn instead, with nothing highlighted in it, and the
any-column fallback an identifier-only match depends on was unreachable behind
the same collision.

Whether a column matched is now the difference between two renderings of the
same text: `snippet(…, MARK, MARK, …)` beside `snippet(…, '', '', …)`. Content
cannot forge a difference between those two, because it is the same content
either way.

The marks FTS5 inserts are private-use code points, rewritten to the public
`[[` and `]]` once, at the end. That is for the other decision that has to tell
a mark from content: the truncation refuses to cut between an open mark and its
close, and a transcript's own bracket used to move that cut.

* fix(ai-vault-search): cut a query on a code point and bind ids in batches

Two small ones from the review's not-routed list.

`query.slice(0, 512)` can land between the halves of a surrogate pair, leaving
a lone half that matches nothing and that a caller cannot echo back. The reader
already has `sliceAtCodeUnitLimit` for exactly this.

`loadSessions` bound one parameter per candidate id in a single statement. The
list is as long as the candidate limit, the tuning doc invites a host to raise
that limit, and SQLite's `SQLITE_MAX_VARIABLE_NUMBER` is 999 on builds older
than 3.32 — so one settings change away from `too many SQL variables`. Read in
batches of 500, leaving room for the filter's own bound values.

* docs(ai-vault-search): price the repair rung, and record what is left open

Typo repair is the one rung whose cost tracks the vocabulary rather than the
result, and it only runs for a term the scope has no posting for. Measured over
1.6 M distinct terms: 10 ms for one unknown term, 387 ms for a 480-character
query of thirty-nine of them.

The scoped-count fix made that cheaper rather than dearer, from 737 ms, because
ordering the vocabulary scan by term drops the sort `doc DESC` needed and the
counts it adds are at most eight bounded probes per prefix. A cap on unknown
terms per query is a follow-up in the split plan, with the five other items the
final review raised and did not route.

* test(ai-vault-search): make each snippet mark mechanism answer for itself

Two mechanisms landed together and hid each other: choosing a column by
comparing a marked rendering against an unmarked one, and marking with
private-use code points instead of `[[`. Either alone fixed the bracket repro,
so neither had a mutation against it — the same masking the snippet's two
column guards had a round ago.

They do different jobs, so both stay and each gets the test that needs it. A
transcript holding a private-use code point of its own is what the comparison
is for; agent output carries Nerd Font glyphs from that block. A snippet past
the character ceiling with a bracket after its last real mark is what the
private-use marks are for, because the truncation has to find that mark by
searching the text.

The two one-line fixes get honest framing rather than a mutation neither can
have. A lone surrogate is not a token character, so the planner drops it either
way and the safe cut is hygiene. And no SQLite this stack runs refuses 1,100
bound ids — 32,766 has been the floor since 3.32 — so the batch is about
owning the ceiling here rather than rescuing a reachable failure.

* refactor(ai-vault-search): keep the scope's expression with the other expressions

Making the typo repair ask its questions in the search's own scope put an
import from retrieval into it, and retrieval already owns the repair — a cycle
the native audit catches. `scopedExpression` belongs beside `phraseExpression`,
`andExpression` and `orExpression` anyway: it builds a MATCH expression, and
two callers now need it. The bm25 weights stay in retrieval, where the SQL that
uses them is.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim fb85f88d64 fix(browser): restore the Chrome-shaped browser identity (STA-7147) (#19927)
* fix(browser): restore the Chrome-shaped browser identity (STA-7147)

#18749 replaced every browser partition's Chrome-shaped UA with Electron's stock
one, so since v1.4.198 the embedded browser announces itself on every non-Google
host as:

  Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like
  Gecko) Orca/1.4.198 Chrome/150.0.7871.224 Electron/43.4.1 Safari/537.36

No browser sends that. Sites that re-check the identity holding a session reject
it: users report being signed out of x.com, LinkedIn and "most websites," and at
least one was signed out of LinkedIn in their own Chrome and met LinkedIn's
"suspicious activity" SMS check -- server-side revocation, which reaches beyond
our app. The repo already documented the mechanism in browser-google-auth-ua.ts:
copied-in cookies "sent under a UA that doesn't match a real first-party browser
get flagged by anti-fraud." That is why the Google auth-host switch exists;
#18749 kept it for accounts.google.com and handed every other host an Electron
identity.

Restore the pre-#18749 session identity: strip the Electron and app tokens, and
rewrite sec-ch-ua to match. Nothing in the cookie-import write path changed --
it never did; cookies were always written correctly and servers were refusing
them.

Deliberately KEPT from #18749, all independent of the UA:
- anti-detection.ts stays deleted. Its premises were measured false on Electron
  43 and its overrides are themselves published bot signatures.
- No Runtime.enable into cross-origin iframes (the documented Cloudflare CDP tell).
- No unconditional CDP debugger attach on every browsing guest.

Known tradeoff, measured: this re-opens #13822. On the unmerged predecessor
branch brennan/sta-3905-cloudflare-ua, commit 9f0a4772fe recorded the stock UA
clearing dash.cloudflare.com 5/5 while every rewritten variant failed 12/12, and
noted that adding client hints does not rescue it. So Cloudflare-gated sites will
show verification failures again until a coherent-identity fix lands. That is a
bounded, in-app annoyance; session revocation damages users' real accounts. A
CDP Emulation.setUserAgentOverride with full userAgentMetadata -- which drives
navigator.userAgentData as well as the headers, and was never tested -- is the
candidate that could satisfy both, and is being measured separately.

Tests: the real-Electron wire-identity test now asserts the stripped identity on
ordinary hosts and Firefox on Google auth hosts. Ablation-verified: neutering
cleanElectronUserAgent turns it red on the Electron-token assertion. Its fixture
also gained an app name -- without one the raw UA carried no app token, so the
Orca/x.y.z half of the cleaner was never exercised.

* fix(browser): finish the identity revert in the files CI caught

browser-session-registry.persistence.test.ts still asserted #18749's behaviour
("keeps the stock UA", "keeps the engine UA"), so the shipped code and its test
disagreed. Caught by CI shard 4/8, not locally: I reverted four test files and
went to typecheck without re-running the browser suite.

Also restores the accurate wording that #18749 generalised away, now that the
behaviour it described is back:
- browser-google-auth-ua.ts: names the Electron/Chrome-shaped UA again as what
  anti-fraud flags, which is the reason the auth-host switch exists at all.
- docs/browser/profiles.mdx: documents the cleaned Chrome UA default and the
  --no-ua-spoof escape hatch, which is real again.
- tests/tools/google-signin-ua-probe.cjs: comments name the live handler.

Deliberately left at #18749's version, because those changes stay correct with
anti-detection.ts deleted:
- browser-manager-viewport.ts: its comment no longer cites the retired
  addScriptToEvaluateOnNewDocument injection.
- browser-webauthn-profile-delete.test.ts: its added webRequest mock is REQUIRED
  by the restored setupClientHintsOverride, so reverting it would break the test.

* fix(browser): keep restored UA hints browser-owned

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 2626e2eca4 Make the structured turn lifecycle row durable so completed durations survive (#19695)
* Make the structured turn lifecycle row durable so completed durations survive

A structured-chat turn used to end by tombstoning its running lifecycle item,
which threw away the only durable record of when the turn ended. Completed
"Worked for" labels therefore depended on the renderer having observed the
turn finish, and vanished on reopen.

The lifecycle item is now revised in place, never tombstoned:
- running, with startedAt, at the provider's turn start
- completed or interrupted, with completedAt, at the provider's terminal frame,
  a user stop, or a child exit the host observed
- unverifiable, with no end, when a cold acquire finds a running row from a
  generation whose exit nobody observed

Both timestamps are the execution host's clock at receipt, captured before the
deferred sink, so the completed value is identical on every client and needs
no client clock. Codex history restore uses the provider's own second-granular
endpoints for turns that predate this change. Desktop and mobile read settled
durations off the journal through one shared selector, and anchor the live
counter on the host start with the client's local receipt so a skewed client
clock never leaks into the label. Locally observed durations remain the
fallback for hosts that still tombstone.

Timestamps live inside the existing turnLifecycle field, which old clients
strip, and every working-state consumer keys on state === 'running', so no
capability negotiation is needed.

* native-chat: avoid stale working status on settled turns

* test: align settled turn status expectations

* Name settled lifecycle rows by their terminal state

An interrupted or unverifiable turn must not read as completed for any
consumer that renders status text raw. One shared helper builds the text for
both providers from the lifecycle state.

* test: deduplicate turn lifecycle suites

Each behavior keeps one test; duplicated harnesses and restated cases go.

* Key lifecycle rows to their user item and record the provider's measured duration

A lifecycle row now names the user item that opened the turn by its provider
key, so clients attribute timing explicitly and fall back to journal order
only for rows from older hosts. A provider-initiated turn with no prompt can
no longer claim the previous prompt's duration.

When the provider measures the turn itself (Codex turn.durationMs, Claude
result.duration_ms) the terminal row records it and clients prefer it over the
host interval, so a turn shows the same number live and after a history
restore. Host receipt times remain the live-counter anchor and the fallback.

* Record a turn as a first-class journal item

The turn record is now its own item kind rather than a status row carrying a
lifecycle field: no text to misuse, and the fold matches the durable turn
record other systems keep. Rows that carry it are stamped journal schema v3;
every other row stays v2, so an older host keeps reading them and latches
read-only at the first v3 row instead of truncating the epoch.

Clients that predate the item would paint an unknown kind as a text bubble,
so the host publishes the legacy status form to any client that does not
advertise agent-session.turn-item.v1, through the same per-client seam
background tasks use. The downgrade is transitional and goes once no
supported release lacks the capability. The shared projection now renders
unknown item kinds as nothing, so later kinds need no gate. One shared reader
handles both forms for old journals and old hosts.

* Preserve observed turn end across settlement retries

* Retain turn attribution for loaded chat history

* Preserve Codex exit receipt across close retries

* Register completed turn duration reliability gate

* Keep earlier turns through a Codex rewind and count a mid-turn attach from the real start

Findings from an independent adversarial review of the typed turn record:

- A Codex rewind adopted the provider's item list as the new epoch, and the
  provider never returns the host's own turn rows, so every duration before
  the rewind point vanished. The host's turn rows are now spliced back beside
  the item each followed, and recovery no longer expects the provider to
  prove rows it never owned.
- The epoch row was stamped with the current schema version, so an older host
  latched read-only at row 1 of every new session, defeating the mixed
  version design. It carries no body and stays at v2; a stored-row test now
  reads SQLite directly, because the reader upcasts every row on read.
- A send Codex folds into a running turn shares the opening prompt's provider
  key, and the alias map credited the duration to the later prompt. The
  earliest submission naming a key now wins.
- The live counter anchored on first sight, so a client attaching mid-turn
  counted from zero. Published frames now carry the host's clock, the reducer
  keeps the last sample with its local receipt time, and both clients anchor
  on how long the host says the turn has run.

* Correct turn duration gate assertion reference

* Respect authoritative unknown native chat duration

* Preserve unverifiable timing across older host upgrade

* Record final completed turn duration reliability evidence

* Fix the CI failures the merge left behind

- A merged import list named the same module twice, which the native code
  quality plugin fails on.
- A running turn is now reported by the host with no duration, so the settled
  map carries an explicit null for it; the hook test still expected the entry
  to be absent.
- main gave the older-page action a cursor with a head-trim guard, so the
  retention test's epoch-only action no longer typechecks; it now passes an
  unbounded sequence, which is what the old shape meant.
- The roster comparator moved into the extracted module, leaving its import
  unused in the reducer.

* Split two files back under the line cap after the merge

Merging main put both one effective line over 300, and the cap forbids a
disable or a shave. The wire module's refusal vocabulary moves to its own file
and is re-exported, so its consumers are untouched; the host's four thin
mutation delegates move next to the functions they call.

* Advertise the turn-item capability on every client transport

Local IPC and mobile advertised it; the remote and web transports did not, so a
desktop paired to a remote host, the CLI, and web silently ran on the legacy
carrier forever and the canonical row was never exercised there. The renderer
that paints it is the same build on every transport.

* Update the web auth-frame expectation for the new capability

Jinwoo Hong 4b1b7178ad fix(orchestration): scope @ group addresses to the sender's Run (#19783)
* fix(orchestration): scope @ group addresses to the sender's Run

`@all`, `@idle`, and the agent-name groups (`@claude`, `@codex`, ...) resolved
against every terminal on the host. A coordinator meaning "my three reviewers"
reached 126 agents across every open project, twice in one day, and every
unrelated agent burned a turn discarding mail that was never for it.

Every group except `@worktree:<id>` now means the live Dispatches of the
sender's own Run, each addressed as `dispatch:<id>` so delivery is durable
even when the worker terminal is not attached yet. A sender bound to no Run is
refused with `invalid_argument` naming `run:<id>` / `dispatch:<id>`; there is
no host-wide fallback and the host's terminals are never enumerated for it.
`@idle` and the agent-name groups filter within that set by the same terminal
status and host-resolved identity as before. `ask --to @group` returns the
same code and points at the owning Run mailbox.

Federated Dispatches read relayed control mail rather than a local mailbox,
so a Run-scoped fan-out skips them with a `recipient_unreachable` warning
naming the direct `dispatch:<id>` address.

Group addresses are resolved host-side, so no RPC or stream shape changes; an
older CLI sending `@all` to a new host gets the Run-scoped meaning.

Claude-Session: run-scoped-group-addresses

* fix(orchestration): revalidate legacy takeover before the recipient verdict

A legacy coordinator taken over while `listTerminals` was in flight reported
`runtime_error` instead of `legacy_read_only`: Run scoping made "no live
Dispatch in this Run" the first thing the group send could fail on, and that
threw before the takeover check ran. Takeover is a precondition, not a
commit-time detail — the sender must be told it is read-only whatever else is
wrong with its recipient set.

Revalidation moves to immediately after the only `await` in the path.
Everything below it is synchronous, so the commit-time window it used to guard
is unchanged; only the error paths now see it.

The legacy partition test gave `term_current_worker` no Dispatch, so under Run
scoping it is correctly not a recipient. It now holds a real current-contract
Dispatch in the same adopted Run, which is what the test is named for: one
`legacy_direct` and one `current_delivery` recipient in one fan-out.

Claude-Session: run-scoped-group-addresses

* fix(orchestration): address the Run a nested coordinator created, not its parent

A nested coordinator is both a worker of its parent Run and the coordinator of
the Run it created. `resolveMessageRun` answers with the parent, correctly,
because that is where its own `worker_done` belongs — but audience is a
different question. Scoping `@all` to that Run sent a nested coordinator's
"shared context" to the siblings it was started beside instead of the workers
it started, and reported success, so it never learned its sub-workers heard
nothing. Before Run scoping the host-wide fan-out reached the sub-workers by
accident; this turned an over-broad delivery into a wrong-audience one, the
exact failure class the change exists to remove.

Group audience now resolves off the Run the sender coordinates, falling back
to its Dispatch's Run. A leaf worker coordinates nothing and is unaffected.
This is a separate question from `routing.run`, not a second answer to the
same one, so `resolveMessageRun` keeps its meaning for point-to-point mail.

Also: when every live Dispatch in a Run is federated, the fan-out skipped them
all and threw a bare `Error` that discarded the warnings naming those remote
workers and how to address each one. The sender was told "no recipients" while
three remote workers existed. That throw now carries a code and the skip
explanations.

Claude-Session: run-scoped-group-addresses

* docs(orchestration): say that no group address reaches a coordinator

A coordinator is not a Dispatch, so Run-scoped groups never include one. That
follows from the rule, but nothing said it, and the old host-wide meaning did
include the coordinator — a worker sending `@all` to raise a blocker would be
heard by its siblings and by nobody who can act. The guide, the CLI note, and
the docs page now say to use `run:<id>` for that, and that a worker which
created its own Run addresses that Run's workers.

Also restores the `@cursor` case dropped when the group tests moved: a Claude
pane titled "Fix the text cursor blink" must not receive Cursor's mail. That
hazard was recorded from real titles and `@droid` alone did not cover it.

* refactor(agent-status): publish structured sessions into the hook server store

Structured (native chat) sessions have no PTY and no hook script, so their
status never reached the hook server's store; #19217 gave `worktree ps` its
own adapter over the structured feed instead. The feed now writes every
projection into that store through a status sink the runtime wires, drops
the row when the host closes the session, and `worktree ps` reads the one
snapshot like every other agent.

Rows carry a `structuredHost` marker and the journal clock; they are never
persisted to last-status.json, and the main process does not forward them
to the renderer yet, whose feed bridge still owns them until it is retired.

Design and the two follow-ups: docs/reference/agent-status-store.md.

* chore: drop stray @pnpm/exe lockfile entry

An unrelated local pnpm run added @pnpm/exe as a packageManagerDependency
with no package.json change, so CI's --frozen-lockfile install failed
before any job ran.

* docs(agent-status): describe the step that actually landed

The design record claimed PR 1 deletes RuntimeAgentRowStore, drops the
retained-versus-hook reconciliation, stamps terminalHandle on OSC rows, and
tags rows with a source field of 'structured-host'. None of that is true of
the shipped code: the retained store and its reconciliation are still in
place, and the row field is structuredHost: 'held' | 'owned'.

AGENTS.md points every future contributor here before they touch agent
status, so split the roadmap into the 1a that landed and the 1b that has not,
and name the fields the code actually writes.

* fix(agent-status): pair session removal with the status-row forget

A session dropped from the host's map without an explicit forget left its row
in the store forever: `structuredHostOwned` bypasses the staleness check, so a
failed re-attach (the Claude rewind path reaches one) stranded a permanently
working agent in `worktree ps` and on mobile with no UI able to clear it.
Deletion and forget are now one operation both callers route through.

* fix(agent-status): give orcad the store worktree ps reads from

`orcad` constructed its runtime with neither `getAgentStatusSnapshot` nor
`structuredAgentStatusSink`, so once `worktree ps` sourced rows only from that
snapshot the headless host published nowhere and listed nothing. The hook
server's store is a module singleton whose import tree never reaches Electron,
and its file paths come from `start()`, which orcad never calls.

* fix(agent-status): drop a structured row without a renderer clear

`dropStructuredStatus` went through `clearPaneState`, which fans a pane clear
out to the renderer for a pane key the renderer's own feed bridge still writes
- so 'exactly one writer per pane key' held for writes and not for deletes.
`dropStatusEntry` routes through the status-drop tap instead, and skips the
resume-identity remnant: a structured session has no pane to resume into, and
every null-status publish would otherwise re-mint one.

* test(agent-status): pin both half-migration structured-row filters

Neither the `agentStatus:getSnapshot` filter nor the main-window listener's had
a single assertion, so deleting either — the first step of PR 2 — was green
everywhere. Also covers the perf skip and the drop's lack of a renderer clear.

* docs(agent-status): correct three statements this PR made false

The sink JSDoc claimed only tests construct a host without one; `orcad` did.
The doc argued a structured row needs no tab mirror 'because headless serve has
no renderer', reasoning about exactly the topology the wiring had not reached.
The deleted runtime adapter's warning that the pane key must be the DERIVED one
- never a bearer handle or minted worker key - was lost with it.

* test(agent-status): declare orcad in the hook-row producer census

Wiring the hook store into the orcad runtime added a production site that
hands hook rows to a consumer, which the census ratchet pins deliberately.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 1c1cb7115a fix(orchestration): unify structured-session status across worktree ps and sidebar (#19217)
* fix(orchestration): stop worktree ps reporting a busy structured session as idle

A worktree running a structured Claude or Codex chat read as idle to `orca
worktree ps`, while the desktop sidebar showed the same session working. The
sidebar was right: the host already projects a status summary for every
structured session and publishes it, and the renderer maps it into an agent
row. `worktree ps` simply never consumed it, so the agent-facing surface was
the blind one.

Structured sessions have no PTY, so they reach neither the hook snapshots nor
the retained ones that every other row is built from. This reads the summaries
the host has already published and applies the same projection the sidebar
does — working, attention as blocked, otherwise done — so the CLI and the GUI
cannot disagree about one session.

Two things worth knowing:

The connected-PTY evidence gate had to be skipped for these rows. It exists to
drop a row whose PTY is gone, which is the wrong question for a session that
never had one; a structured row's liveness evidence is the status feed that
produced it. The exemption is keyed on the row being structured, so every
PTY-backed row keeps today's behaviour.

`RuntimeWorktreeAgentRow` needed no change. It was already a non-PTY shape —
paneKey, state, agentType, and no ptyId, connected or writable — so a
structured row fits without inventing a fake terminal coordinate.

The pane key is the DERIVED one the renderer already publishes, never the
orchestration bearer handle or the minted worker pane key: both are
credentials, since `orchestration check` is identity-gated and accepts a
caller-supplied pane key.

`orca terminal list` is deliberately untouched, and a test pins that. Adding
rows there breaks real consumers: mobile mounts a terminal WebView per row that
can never receive a frame, a `connected`-keyed refresh check goes permanently
true and pins shipped clients to a fast cadence with no exit, and the plugin
projection has no field that can carry `writable: false`. Every safe consumer
of a terminal summary checks `ptyId`; the breaking ones key off `connected` or
mere row presence, which no added field can qualify. An honest partial-listing
count there is a separate change.

* fix(runtime): report only live structured sessions in worktree ps

The status feed's `published` map is a broadcast cache, not a roster. It
deliberately never retracts — an evicted idle session is still idle, and a
reloading renderer must not lose every settled row — so enumerating it lists
every session the host has ever opened, and eviction's `forget-session` step
deletes the session from the live map while touching nothing else.

Reading it as a roster made `worktree ps` report a closed chat forever. The
sharp edge is a chat closed while an approval was pending: a deliberate close
does not settle a pending prompt, so the retained summary stays `attention`,
maps to a `blocked` row, and merges the worktree to `permission` for the whole
30-minute freshness window — on the CLI and on the mobile sidebar it backs.

The poller now answers from the sessions the host still holds, intersecting the
live map with the retained projections. `subscribe()` and its snapshot are
untouched: retention there is the point. Gating on the live session set rather
than the visible tabs keeps a headless orchestration worker listed, which is
what the agent-facing surface is for.

Also folds out two things the enumerator left behind: the working/attention/idle
to working/blocked/done mapping now lives once in the shared projection module
instead of once per process, which is what actually enforces "the CLI and the
GUI cannot disagree"; and the structured row source no longer builds a
write-only `payload` behind an `as` cast that compensated for nothing. The
structured source construction moves to its own module to keep
runtime-worktree-agent-rows.ts clear of the 300-line cap.

* test(runtime): execute the structured-host call site in worktree ps

Both structured-row suites called attachRuntimeWorktreeAgentRows directly
with summaries they built themselves, so nothing ever ran getWorktreePs's
own `getStructuredAgentSessionHost()?.liveSessionStatusSummaries()`. That
file carries `@ts-nocheck`, so renaming the accessor was green in typecheck
and in the suite, while `orca worktree ps` and mobile's 3s poll would throw
a TypeError for every user — the `?.` optional-chains the host, not the
method. Swapping the call back to a whole-cache read was equally invisible:
the liveness suite injects feed.liveSessionSummaries() itself, and the
string-match guard only needs the identifier to appear somewhere in the file.

Drives the real runtime with a stub host over a real status feed that has
published two sessions and forgotten one, asserting the live session's row
reaches ps output, that the live accessor is the one called, and that the
`?? []` fallback still returns a page with no host installed. The stub is
typed against the real host, so a class-side rename reddens tc here.

* refactor(runtime): admit agent sources before worktree row projection

* fix(runtime): preserve host-authoritative structured status

* Fix structured host session activity lifecycle

Jinwoo Hong 33af0af4ea fix(relay): stop rejecting the near region on a cold first probe (#19233)
* fix(relay): stop rejecting the near region on a cold first probe

The region probe counted the process's first /health request, which pays TCP
and TLS setup, as a latency sample. The resulting spread rejected the near
region on essentially every cold run, leaving the far region as the sole
survivor and pinning US desktops to Asia cells for 24 hours.

Discard a warm-up probe per origin, compare regions by minimum latency, and
keep the spread check only for a genuinely flapping path. A region now wins
only against a measured competitor; a rejected or unmeasurable peer sends no
hint, which is remembered for an hour so a reconnect does not re-probe. An
origin that fails its warm-up is dropped before the sampling rounds, so an
unreachable region costs one probe timeout instead of four.

After a control socket registers, probe the cell we landed on once per
process, and delete the cache only when it names a region other than the best
measured one and that cell is more than 3x slower -- a far cell under a
correct cache is the director declining the hint, and re-measuring would
return the same answer.

* test: complete MSYS regression CI registration and teardown contract

* fix(windows): deny job breakaway for the whole Cygwin/MSYS shell family

The per-PTY job probed only msys-2.0.dll, and only for bash.exe/sh.exe.
Cygwin ships the same spawn.cc breakaway logic under cygwin1.dll, and an
MSYS2 zsh escapes exactly like its bash does, so both kept the orphan bug.

Probe the runtime DLL on the shell's own search path instead of matching
shell names: that is the property that decides whether the runtime will
ask for CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB, and it drops the name special-casing.

* chore(patch): restore the conpty.cc index line

The earlier hand-edit dropped it while every sibling section kept one.
Recomputed against the real blobs: applying this patch to 7b286d3d

Jinwoo Hong 3160b54c69 feat: real background push notifications for the mobile app (#8129) (#18554)
* feat(cloud): add the mobile push gateway and its contract package (#8129)

A small open-source service that holds the APNs key and FCM credentials and
sends background push to paired phones on the desktop's behalf. Hosts
authenticate with a box challenge and HMAC proof on their pairing key, the
same shape the relay uses, so signed-in and accountless desktops share one
path. Tokens are stored; alert text is held only for the coalescing window.

The contract doc in docs/reference is the source of truth for every wire
shape. The interop test runs the real desktop answerer against a real
gateway-issued challenge so transcript drift fails in CI.

* feat(push): register phones and send background push from the desktop (#8129)

Adds the notifications.remote-push.v1 capability, the registerPush and
unregisterPush RPCs on the mobile allowlist, a gateway client with a cached
session and 401 re-auth, a durable unregister outbox, and a dispatcher that
offers every mobile notification to the gateway after the socket fan-out.
The dispatcher is fire-and-forget with one retry and drops registrations the
gateway reports dead.

Puts agentState on the mobile frame and fixes the #4375 wording so a working
agent is never announced as finished. The relay host-proof code moves onto a
shared envelope module with no behaviour change.

* feat(mobile): background push registration, receive, and settings (#8129)

Fetches the native APNs or FCM token, registers it with every paired host
that advertises the capability, and re-registers on token change. Foreground
pushes are suppressed inside handleNotification against the same seen set
the socket path uses, so nothing shows twice. Taps route by host fingerprint.
One Background notifications switch, off by default, with the disclaimer and
needs-input / finished sub-switches; hidden until a paired desktop is new
enough. Adds google-services.json and the expo-notifications plugin.

* chore(cloud): Terraform and deploy workflow for the push gateway (#8129)

Declares the Cloud Run service, runtime account, secrets, and orca_push
database behind push_gateway_enabled, true only in production. The deploy
workflow is gated like the relay's, deploys with no traffic, probes /ready
and a validate-only FCM send, then shifts traffic. It runs as the shared
production deploy account because the Cloud SQL rollout lease grant is
foundation-owned; its extra authority is three bindings on the push service.
docs/push-gateway.md carries the import commands for the resources created
by hand and the APNs key rotation procedure.

* docs: describe background notifications on the phone (#8129)

* docs: check in the mobile push contract (#8129)

Seven committed files cite it as the source of truth for every wire shape;
docs/reference is allowlisted per file, so add the entry.

* test(push): replay one checked-in host-proof vector on both sides (#8129)

Cloud Verify installs only the cloud workspace, so the gateway suite cannot
import the desktop answerer. Replace the cross-workspace import with a fixed
challenge vector generated from the contract package; the gateway fixture and
the desktop answerer each replay it and must produce the same HMAC. A
transcript drift on either side now fails in that side's own suite.

* fix(cloud): open the push gateway with invoker_iam_disabled, not an allUsers binding (#8129)

The production domain-restricted-sharing policy rejects an allUsers
run.invoker member, which the runbook anticipated. Opt the service out of
invoker IAM the way the relay director already does; the host proof is the
authentication either way.

* docs(cloud): the push.onorca.dev record exists and is hand-managed (#8129)

* fix(push): close review findings in the gateway (#8129)

- Quota reservation takes a per-host advisory lock; READ COMMITTED admitted
  a whole burst past the cap (80/80 without, 60/80 with, against Postgres 16).
- Challenge issuance no longer writes push_hosts; the row lands on proof
  verification. Stale hosts prune after 30 days. Per-IP token bucket on the
  two unauthenticated routes.
- Streaming body limit via hono bodyLimit; a chunked body bypassed the
  Content-Length check.
- registrationIds deduped in the schema; per-host device cap of 64; list
  bounded to its schema.
- Gateway-side challenge TTL is the specified 10 s, not 40 s.
- APNs stream settles on close as well as end/error.

* fix(push): close review findings in the desktop client (#8129)

- A gateway registration the registry cannot persist is enqueued for delete
  instead of leaking a live token.
- Unregister outbox re-reads pending per pass, honours enqueues during a
  drain, and retries with backoff instead of waiting for the next launch.
- Dispatcher batches registrations by 20 rather than starving the rest.
- 401 compare-and-clear; a 401 after re-auth is unreachable; refused
  handshakes and 429s are cached briefly instead of re-handshaking per event.
- Service is stopped on quit.

* fix(mobile): close review findings in push registration and receive (#8129)

- Consent generation guards a register that finishes after the switch went
  off; the host is re-queued for unregister instead of recorded live.
- Foreground pushes seed the watermark before adopting the epoch, so a push
  on a never-connected session cannot wipe a valid watermark.
- aps-environment follows the build via app.config.js; the iOS release
  workflow sets it to production. A bare plugin entry wrote development.
- Pushes the OS showed while closed are marked seen before catch-up replay.
- Token null result is not cached; failed capability probes are retried and
  never block an unregister; coalesced summaries are shown but not marked.
- Unresolvable fingerprint routes nowhere and is suppressed in foreground.
- Android channel ensured at boot; capability hook diffs clients by identity.

* fix(cloud): harden the push deploy workflow and size the gateway to the budget (#8129)

- Roll traffic back on a failed post-shift check; delete a candidate that
  never took traffic; retry the origin probe and the FCM probe.
- Assert Terraform-owned scaling instead of mutating it from the workflow.
- Build before taking the Cloud SQL rollout lease.
- Declare the database pool in Terraform (2 per instance, max 2 instances)
  and add the gateway to the connection budget; the previous default put the
  shared instance 65 connections over its ceiling.
- State plainly that the shared deploy identity's relay authority is inherited.

* fix(push): read the runtime from shared state at push startup (#8129)

Threading the runtime through launchDesktopMode put the launch module one
line over the 300-line lint budget after the rebase.

* fix(push): key the unauthenticated rate limit on the hop Cloud Run wrote (#8129)

Cloud Run appends the connecting peer to x-forwarded-for; the limiter read
the left-most value, which the caller controls, so a forged first hop earned
a fresh bucket per request.

* fix(push): close the final security review findings in the gateway and infra (#8129)

- app.onError logs only the error name and answers a bare 500; hono's default
  handler printed the whole error, and a pg error carries the row in detail
- a second per-IP bucket (240/min) runs ahead of the bearer lookup on every
  authenticated route, so forged bearers cannot spend the two-connection pool
- one live session per host: minting deletes the host's earlier row
- device-less hosts are pruned after 1 h, not 30 d; any keypair mints one free
- notificationId is printable ASCII, since it becomes the APNs collapse header
- the impersonated FCM probe token is masked in the workflow log
- prevent_destroy on the Apple secrets and the orca_push database

* fix(push): close the final security review findings in the desktop client (#8129)

- fetch never follows a redirect: a 307 would replay the host proof and the
  phone's token to whatever origin the redirect named
- registerPush params are strict and the paired identity is spread last
- a per-device bucket (10/min) bounds a phone looping registerPush, which
  costs a gateway write and a synchronous registry write each time

* fix(mobile): close the final security review findings in push receive (#8129)

- a push with no epoch can no longer claim a seq-derived dedup key, in the
  foreground or from the tray; a forged seq:N could otherwise swallow the
  real bell at that seq
- a provider-delivered push with no host catalog, or no fingerprint at all,
  stays unrouted instead of falling back to the hostId its raw data carries

* docs(push): record the ip buckets, session and host retention, and the token-ownership limit (#8129)

* fix(push): apply the schema on an untimed pool and retry statement-timeout aborts (#8129)

Ports the relay's #18722 pattern to the gateway: DDL runs on a one-connection
pool with statement_timeout 0 that is closed before the serving pool opens, and
SQLSTATE 57014 joins the bounded transaction retry path.

Brennan BensonandMerge Sim 1478101342 fix(windows): unblock structured native chat by exposing process creation time (#18986)
* fix(windows): guard process creation times

* fix(windows): ask the relay's bare addon for creation times too

The relay addon build now emits creationTimeMs, but the runtime binding
for the bare addon still declared only CommandLine, so a Windows relay
host requested flag 2 and every row came back without a creation time.
That leaves captureWindowsDescendantSnapshot returning null and
verifyWindowsProcessIdentity false forever on those hosts -- the relay
half of the patch was unreachable.

Naming CreationTime in the adapter is safe because the bare addon is a
content-hashed relay artifact: it ships in the same immutable relay
directory as the bundle reading it, so it can never be older than the
code asking for the bit.

Also bound the win32 guard test on our own row, which the addon can
never fail to answer, so an unconverted FILETIME or a 1601-epoch stamp
fails instead of satisfying a bare count.

* fix(windows): make the compiled addon prove its own CreationTime support

CI caught the real defect: the win32 guard test read
isWindowsProcessStartTimeAvailable() as true and then found 0 rows
carrying creationTimeMs. Unlike node-pty, this package publishes a
prebuilt .node at the same build/Release path node-gyp writes to, so
pnpm patches the source tree and leaves that binary alone. A host then
holds a patched lib/index.js -- ProcessDataFlag.CreationTime and all --
over a binary that ignores flag 4, and neither a load check nor a path
check can see the difference.

So the binary now says so itself: addon.cc exports
supportedProcessDataFlags, lib/index.js re-exports it, and

  - windows-process-tree-creation-time.cjs asserts it during install,
    which is what forces a from-source rebuild. It is shared by the Node
    probe in ensure-native-runtime.mjs and the Electron probe in
    rebuild-native-deps.mjs, exactly as node-pty-job-ownership.cjs is --
    the Electron half matters because that probe decides onlyModules, so
    without it the packaged app would ship the stale prebuilt.
  - isWindowsProcessStartTimeAvailable() gates on the reported bit, not
    the enum. Believing the enum is worse than reporting false: the
    descendant snapshot returns null forever and the exit proof latches
    unverifiable while structured chat believes it has a reaper.

rebuildNodeRuntimeModules could not actually have rebuilt this package:
the patched binding.gyp includes deps/node-addon-api, which the tarball
does not ship, and node-gyp must run from the physical dir.

Also closes the relay repair path's divergence: repairCreationTimeSources
wrote the C++ but not the buildNode splat or the tree-node typing, and
assertPatchApplied checked neither, so a repaired tree passed as patched
with buildProcessTree silently dropping the field.

The guard test is unchanged.

* fix(windows): keep the process-tree patch LF-only

windows-process-tree-patch-contract.test.mjs requires the patch file to
carry no CR bytes. Regenerating through pnpm patch-commit emitted 199 of
them, because the creation-time change is the first to touch files the
package ships as CRLF (src/process.h, src/process_worker.cc,
src/addon.cc, lib/index.js, lib/index.ts, the typings) -- and #17886's
own hunks over binding.gyp and src/process_commandline.cc carry the rest.

Stripping them is safe and changes nothing the lockfile records: pnpm
hashes patches CRLF-normalized, so the digest stays
e66202cc623996d02040c93449eb9ae353fddadf426cb53202a59ee710ee6fe7 and now
equals the file's plain sha256 too. It also still applies -- verified
against a deleted store entry, not a warm one -- and the precedent was
already there: the previous patch was LF-only and had been patching
those same CRLF files all along.

ensure-native-runtime.test.mjs stages the siblings the script loads at
module scope into its temp project. The import walk added by #17886 sees
`from './x.mjs'` only, so the createRequire'd .cjs siblings still have to
be named, and this PR adds a second one.

Jinjing 08b96ed1b3 Seed Cmd-J filter from sidebar scope (#19036)
* feat(palette): seed Cmd+J filter from sidebar show scope

When opening Cmd+J, the palette's host and project filters now
initialize from the sidebar's current Show scope, so results
match the user's sidebar view. The palette can still be cleared
or changed per open; sidebar never reads back palette filters.

* refactor: pass app state to palette filter builder

Let the builder function extract the sidebar scope it needs instead of
requiring callers to destructure and pass individual properties. This
reduces coupling and simplifies the data flow through the palette
initialization lifecycle.

* Make palette filter repo-granular to preserve sidebar scope

Filter options now list individual repositories instead of grouping
multi-repo projects into single rows. This preserves the exact
repository scope shown in the sidebar when opening Cmd+J, rather than
widening selections to entire projects. Removes per-field selection cap
and stale-value reconciliation, simplifying the filter lifecycle.

* Clarify filter naming and seed from sidebar scope on palette open

- Rename projects→repositories in PaletteFilterModel for semantic accuracy
- Rename rawFilter→filterState for clearer intent
- Initialize filter from sidebar scope in local state, refresh on open
- Remove redundant filter reset from selection lifecycle

* Seed Cmd-J filter from sidebar scope and reset on close

The palette now opens with the sidebar's host and repository scope
applied. Filter changes are temporary: closing discards them, and
reopening reseeds from the sidebar's current state.

- Repository filtering is now granular (individual repos)
- Support shared repository IDs across multiple hosts
- Disambiguate duplicate repository names by path

* Add comment clarifying Projects terminology

Document the naming convention for repository-granular filter choices to help future maintainers understand why "Projects" is used as the user-facing term.

* Remove redundant Escape press from worktree palette filter test

## 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.

OrcaWinandOrca Worker fc5fa16870 perf(windows): split the process table into two flag sets (#17866)
* perf(windows): split the process table into two flag sets

MDE flags "suspicious memory activity" on the process-table reader: it
opened a handle into every process on the box and read each one's PEB on
a repeating cadence. Two changes narrow that.

Drop `Memory` outright. It cost a second
OpenProcess(PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION | PROCESS_VM_READ) plus
GetProcessMemoryInfo per process, and nothing reads a working set off
this table -- the Resource Manager runs its own sweep, and the addon
stores WorkingSetSize into a DWORD so anything above 4 GB wraps.

Split the rest in two. `readWindowsProcessIdentityTable[Fresh]` is a
bare Toolhelp32 walk with zero per-process handles, and returns
`WindowsProcessIdentityRow`, which has no `command` to read.
`readWindowsProcessTable[Fresh]` keeps the command line for the callers
that match on it. PTY root identity and the owner start-time probe move
to the cheap reader; agent recognition, port attribution, codex turn
processes and structured-TUI matching all genuinely need the command
line and stay.

Two independently single-flighted caches, never one per caller: the
fan-out this module prevents is one scan per caller, and each reader
still serves every caller wanting its flag set. The wedge gate and the
3s deadline stay shared, because both readers call the same addon and
one wedged read latches its one `requestInProgress`. With no binding
there is only the 1.4s PowerShell scan to run, so the identity view
rides the detailed snapshot rather than forking a second one.

Measured on Windows 11, 492 processes (p50/p95): identity 6.3/7.0 ms,
detailed 12.3/13.4 ms, previous memory+commandLine 13.1/14.1 ms.

* fix(windows): serialize native process-table reads across flag sets

The two flag-set readers could both be in flight at once, and the
vendored wrapper does not tolerate that. `getRawProcessList` pushes the
callback onto one list and calls the addon only when no request is in
progress, so a second concurrent caller's `flags` are DISCARDED and it
is handed the first caller's rows. Measured against the real addon:
identity issued first, both callers got the same array, 0 of 541 rows
with a command line. A detailed read overlapping an identity read
therefore returned a table with every command line empty, which agent
recognition reads as "no agent" -- silently, and only under concurrency.

Nothing already here excluded that. Each snapshot cache single-flights
only within itself, and the wedge set latches only after a read misses
its 3s deadline, so through the healthy ~12ms of a scan neither reader
excluded the other. Overlap is the normal state: panes poll detailed at
750ms while a teardown takes identity snapshots.

`nativeReadGate` admits one native read at a time across both flag sets.
It also fixes the relay path, where `adaptAddon` has no queue at all and
two simultaneous CreateToolhelp32Snapshot calls are the crash the
vendor's queue exists to prevent. Every link settles, so a wedged read
never strands a waiter; the waiter re-checks the wedge and rejects. With
one call outstanding, retention stays bounded at one callback rather
than one per reader.

Also from review:

- The CIM fallback now belongs to the detailed flag set alone, and the
  identity view projects that snapshot through `toIdentityRow`, so an
  identity row carries no command line on a no-binding host either.
- The concurrency test modelled the wrapper's coalescing queue, which
  the previous synchronous mock could not express; verified failing
  without the gate and passing with it.
- `agent-session-process-identity-probe` early-returns when the
  creation-time flag is unavailable, which no shipped addon build
  provides, instead of scanning the table to produce null.
- Corrected the cost framing: Memory took an OpenProcess(...|VM_READ)
  it never read through, so dropping it halves per-process handle opens
  and leaves the PEB/ReadProcessMemory telemetry unchanged.

* test(windows): keep read exclusion across resets and flag each field

Two review follow-ups, both about tests passing for the wrong reason.

`resetNativeReaderState` replaced the read gate with a resolved promise,
so waiters still holding the old chain ran beside reads queued on the
new one. Reachable only from the `__set*ForTests` hooks, which is what
makes it worth fixing: it hands a suite two concurrent calls into its
own mock addon -- the exact condition the concurrency tests exist to
detect. Chain onto the gate instead; every link settles within the
deadline, so the bounded wait that costs is the right trade.

The coalescing mock shaped every field off the CommandLine bit, so an
identity read that did request CreationTime got `creationTimeMs`
stripped. The identity-side assertion was then only `!('command' in
row)`, which a correctly flagged read and a coalesced one satisfy
equally: a future regression losing identity flags under concurrency
would have kept the case green. Gate each field on its own bit and
assert `creationTimeMs` positively, inside the helper both orderings
share.

Concurrency assertions move to a new bare-addon mock. The coalescing
mock's own latch means it can never report more than one call in
flight, so measuring exclusion there proved nothing; the bare addon has
no queue -- like `adaptAddon` on a relay, where re-entering
CreateToolhelp32Snapshot is a real crash -- and makes re-entry visible.

Verified by deletion: restoring `nativeReadGate = Promise.resolve()`
fails the reset case with `expected 2 to be 1`, and restoring the
single-bit mock fails both overlap orderings on `creationTimeMs`.

* docs(windows): count the third test defect in the list that names them

The section opened "Two defects have now shipped", numbered two, then
described the third in its closing paragraph -- a list that reads as a
complete account while quietly omitting one, which is the exact failure
the section exists to warn about. Say three and number it, and note that
the third arrived inside the fix for the first two.

Also record why the creationTimeMs and flags-array assertions are not
redundant, in the doc and beside the assertions: the flags array catches
a read served another flag set's rows, the positional creationTimeMs
check catches field shaping (identity dropping CreationTime, or
toIdentityRow not forwarding it). Neither sees the other's failure.

* docs(windows): stop describing a PEB read this release removed

Every comment here that justified the flag split in terms of PEB reads became
false when the command-line reader moved to the kernel. Left alone, the
enumeration doc contradicted itself inside one file: the flag-set section
described three chained `ReadProcessMemory` calls per process while the
sections below it explained that the addon contains no such primitive and has
no PEB fallback.

The measurement is now attributed rather than merged. Dropping `Memory` halved
the per-process handle opens and nothing else -- both handles carried
`PROCESS_VM_READ` at the time -- and it was replacing the PEB walk that took
`PROCESS_VM_READ` and `ReadProcessMemory` out of the addon. Neither change
substitutes for the other, which is worth keeping straight: the split's
remaining value is the handle itself, not the memory access.

Also adds `relay/windows-port-scan.ts` to the caller table, the one caller this
effort introduced, and records that it reads only pid/name through the detailed
reader -- free while a pane is polling, not free on a headless relay.

* test(windows): pin the fresh links path against the identity TTL cache

The identity and detailed tables are separate snapshot readers with
independent TTLs, so the detailed path's existing freshness guard says
nothing about the ancestry walk's. Cover the identity reader on its own.

OrcaWinandOrca Worker c252d855ac fix(windows): resolve npm/pnpm .cmd shims past cmd.exe (#17869)
* fix(windows): resolve npm/pnpm .cmd shims past cmd.exe

A `.cmd` target forces every spawn through `cmd.exe /c` with each argument
caret-escaped, and Microsoft Defender for Endpoint scores a long `cmd.exe /c`
line carrying caret-escaped natural language as obfuscation. `codex.cmd` is
named in the spawn cluster of the MDE incident this addresses.

npm's `cmd-shim` and pnpm's `@zkochan/cmd-shim` generate files whose whole body
is "find node, run this script". Read one, and the spawn can go straight to
`node.exe <script> <args>` — no cmd.exe, no caret escaping. Anything the parser
does not recognise exactly, or whose target cannot be confirmed on disk, keeps
the existing cmd.exe path.

Incidentally fixes a real bug: cmd ends its command at a raw CR/LF whatever the
quote state, so a multi-line agent prompt through a `.cmd` shim had to be
rejected. Resolved shims have no such limit.

* fix(windows): refuse drive-relative shim paths and run the win32 tests in CI

Two blocking findings from review.

A drive-relative path defeated the absolute-path guard:
`win32.isAbsolute('D:evil.js')` is false, but `win32.resolve` reads the drive
letter and lands on `D:\evil.js`, outside the shim directory. cmd would have
built `C:\shim\D:evil.js` and failed; we would have executed the wrong file.
Adding `:` to the unsafe-character set closes it, and the alternate-data-stream
spelling `a.js:zone` with it. It costs no coverage: 84 of the 91 real shims on
this box still resolve, the same seven fall back.

Neither `windows-cmd-shim-resolution.test.ts` nor its `.win32` sibling was in
the Windows package job's file list, so the whole filesystem/resolution half and
the real-spawn equivalence suite ran nowhere. Both are now in
`WINDOWS_PACKAGE_TESTS` and in the pr.yml step.

Also from review: clear `windowsVerbatimArguments` explicitly on the resolved
branch rather than inheriting it, since there is no caller-built command line
there; document the kill switch and the PTY/hook-wrapper scope limits in
docs/reference; and cover drive-relative, BOM, line-ending, casing and `%*`
tampering in the platform-independent half of the tests.

* docs(windows): justify the shim-path colon guard from the filesystem rule

The guard was argued empirically ("none of the 91 shims on this box has one"),
which invites a future reader to relax it for a shim we have not seen. Windows
reserves `:` within a path segment, so a relative path cannot carry one at all:
the only spellings that can are drive-qualified, an alternate data stream, or a
`\?\` device path, and the last is already refused as absolute. That makes a
false refusal impossible rather than unobserved.

* refactor(child-process): move resolveSpawn into its own module

The merge with main pushed run-process.ts one line past the 300-line cap:
both sides grew it. The spawn-argv decision is already a pure, separately
tested unit, so it moves out rather than the cap moving up. run-process.ts
re-exports it, so no caller changes.

* perf(child-process): cache the shim interpreter lookup

The parse cache spared the shim read but not the PATH walk, so a second
resolution of the same .cmd did 0 reads and one statSync per PATH entry --
30 on a 30-entry PATH, synchronous on resolveSpawn, where one dead network
mount blocks the calling thread on every spawn.

Keyed by shim directory AND PATH, since the shim's own rule is
%~dp0\node.exe first then PATH, and a PATH edit between spawns must miss.
Corrects the stat comment, which accounted only for the shim itself.

* fix(child-process): revalidate a cached shim interpreter before using it

The node cache was held for process life and never rechecked, so a cached
node.exe that was later uninstalled -- or dropped from PATH by a version
manager -- was still handed to resolveSpawn, failing the spawn with ENOENT.
An uncached process in the same state returns null and falls back to
cmd.exe successfully, so the cache was strictly worse than no cache.

One statSync on a non-null hit, not one per PATH entry, so the walk this
cache exists to skip is still skipped. The stale-null direction stays
uncorrected on purpose: it only keeps the working cmd.exe fallback. Both
directions are now stated in the comment, along with the known miss for
callers that vary PATH per spawn.

* fix(child-process): honour PATHEXT when resolving the shim interpreter

The doc claimed a node.com/.bat/.cmd on PATH returned null and fell back to
cmd.exe. The scan actually skipped those entries and kept looking for a
node.exe, so PATH=C:\A;C:\B with C:\A\node.com and C:\B\node.exe resolved to
B's node.exe while the shim runs A's node.com -- a different binary, chosen
silently, on the one axis this module must not get wrong.

The scan now follows cmd's rule: first PATH directory holding any PATHEXT
spelling wins, PATHEXT order decides within it, and only an .exe winner is
returned. Anything else gives up and keeps the cmd.exe path, which restores
the strict-subset-of-cmd property everywhere except the documented cwd case.

PATHEXT is read from the child's env and joined into the cache key, since it
now changes the answer. Costs one stat per PATHEXT entry per node-less
directory, paid once per process behind the cache.

bfc6a262a7 fix(windows): read command lines from the kernel, not each process's PEB (#17886)
* fix(windows): read command lines from the kernel, not each process's PEB

MDE incident D scored Orca for suspicious memory activity: the vendored
`@vscode/windows-process-tree` recovered every process's command line by
opening it with `PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION | PROCESS_VM_READ` and chaining
three `ReadProcessMemory` calls through the PEB and
`RTL_USER_PROCESS_PARAMETERS`. On a 750ms/2s cadence over the whole table that
is the credential-dumping primitive, whatever the intent.

Windows 8.1 added `NtQueryInformationProcess`'s `ProcessCommandLineInformation`
class (60), which returns the same string as a kernel-built `UNICODE_STRING`
under `PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION` alone. Electron's floor is Windows
10, so every supported OS has it. The PEB reader stays behind a process-wide
latch that only `STATUS_INVALID_INFO_CLASS`/`NOT_SUPPORTED`/`NOT_IMPLEMENTED`
can set; a pid that merely denied a handle does not re-arm it, because
`PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION` implicitly grants the limited right and so cannot
be obtained where the weaker open already failed.

The same hunk drops `PROCESS_VM_READ` from `GetProcessMemoryUsage` and
`GetCpuUsage`, which acquired it and never read an address space.

Measured on Windows 11 (514 processes), counted in-process by swapping the
addon's import table entries for counting stubs, per CommandLine scan:
`ReadProcessMemory` 1128 -> 0, desired access 0x0410 -> 0x1000, p50 12.7ms ->
9.3ms. Command lines were byte-identical on every process both readers
recovered (376/376, 379/379 across runs), including a 24,068-character argv
with quotes, non-ASCII and trailing whitespace, and a WOW64 target. Three
processes that refused the old rights granted the new one; none went the other
way.

* chore(deps): refresh the windows-process-tree patch hash in the lockfile

* fix(windows): drop the PEB fallback and detect the unpatched prebuilt

Review of #17886 found three ways the reader could still perform, or silently
resume, the primitive it exists to remove.

The class-missing latch was a permanent, process-wide, one-way downgrade back
to the PEB read, and any single target returning STATUS_INVALID_INFO_CLASS /
NOT_SUPPORTED / NOT_IMPLEMENTED could trip it. On an EDR-hooked ntdll -- the
entire premise of this change -- a hook that does not recognise class 60 would
have restored PROCESS_VM_READ plus three ReadProcessMemory per pid per scan for
the life of the process, unobservably, on precisely the machines this was
written for. The fallback is deleted rather than guarded: GetProcessCommandLine
now returns false and leaves the command line empty, which callers already
handle, so the addon imports no ReadProcessMemory at all.

That absence is what makes the property checkable on the artifact. The
published 0.8.0 tarball ships a loadable prebuilt built from unpatched source;
it is node-addon-api, so a bare require() accepts it, allowBuilds is false and
CI installs with --ignore-scripts, and a rebuild that soft-exits on a Windows
file lock leaves it in place. Source-text guards could never see it.
windowsProcessTreeAddonReadsProcessMemory() checks the compiled binary instead,
and is wired into the install check, the rebuild, and the relay build.

The repair itself never worked: `git apply` run inside a work tree prefixes
patch paths with the cwd-relative prefix, skips what does not match, and exits
0, so the branch always fell through to its own post-check throw. The package
dir is always under the project root, while the fixture that covered it was in
%TEMP%, outside any repo. Blinding git with GIT_DIR fixes it, and the test now
runs inside a real work tree.

Also from review: bounds-check the returned UNICODE_STRING against the
allocation (not the size the second query clobbers) and cap the probe so a
bogus length cannot bad_alloc a whole scan; test NT_SUCCESS explicitly; value-
initialize ProcessInfo, which left `memory` as stack garbage -- measured, 82
processes reported the same bogus working set; and correct a comment in
windows-process-table.ts that still described the command line as a PEB read.

Re-measured on Windows 11 (543 processes): ReadProcessMemory 1128 -> 0, with
the symbol absent from the import table so the IAT hook finds no slot to
count; desired access 0x0410 -> 0x1000 on all 543 opens; p50 13.5 -> 12.3ms;
405/405 command lines byte-identical including a 24,087-character quoted
non-ASCII argv and a WOW64 target; 3 processes recovered only by the new path,
0 only by the old.

* chore(deps): refresh the windows-process-tree patch hash in the lockfile

* test(scripts): stage a script's local imports into the native-runtime fixture

ensure-native-runtime.mjs gained an import of windows-process-tree-gyp-rebuild.mjs,
but the fixture copied only the script itself, so every case in the suite died
with ERR_MODULE_NOT_FOUND before reaching its own assertions. copyScriptWithLocalModules
already walks a script's co-located imports for exactly this reason -- its own doc
comment names this failure -- so use it rather than listing files by hand.

The two Windows cases still fail here, on a missing node-pty ConPTY runtime that
also fails on main; this only stops a resolution error from standing in front of
whatever they were meant to catch.

* fix(windows): route a locked stale addon to the Windows file-lock message

`pnpm install` with Orca running aborted with a raw EPERM stack. The stale-binary
guard -- which deletes an addon that still imports ReadProcessMemory so a skipped
rebuild cannot use it -- ran outside the try whose catch classifies Windows file
locks, and whose message is literally "Close running Orca/Electron/dev processes
for this worktree": exactly this situation.

Measured rather than assumed: rmSync against a loaded (memory-mapped) addon throws
EPERM, and `force: true` does not help, since it only swallows ENOENT. Cold copies
of the same file delete fine. So the delete threw a page before the handler that
knows what it means.

Moving the guard inside the try is the whole fix; the classifier already matches
the EPERM text. The new case runs the real script against a temp project whose
stale addon is held open by a live child process, and fails against the old
placement with the raw `syscall: 'rm'` stack the report described.

* feat(windows): warn once when command-line recovery is refused host-wide

Removing the PEB fallback removed a total-defeat vector, but it left a cliff: if
NtQueryInformationProcess(ProcessCommandLineInformation) is refused -- a hooked
ntdll that does not know class 60 -- every command line comes back empty and
agent identity matching silently degrades to image names. The addon still loads
and still enumerates, so every health check the app has stays green. A cliff
nobody can see is the failure mode this area keeps producing.

The querying process is the unambiguous probe. A process can always open itself
with PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION, so its own command line coming back empty
means the query is refused for every process -- not that some target denied a
handle, which is normal for roughly a quarter of the table. Keying on our own row
rather than a fraction means no threshold to tune and no false positive on a
hardened box where most processes deny.

One warning per session, gated on the CommandLine flag actually being requested so
a future identity-only reader cannot trip it. The suite's own SELF fixture gains a
command line for the same reason: a self row without one is the alarm, not a
detail.

* fix(windows): check the relay's staged addon at load, and answer tri-state

Two gaps in the ReadProcessMemory check, both about what it does not see.

It only ever looked at node_modules/@vscode/windows-process-tree. A relay host
has no node_modules of ours: it loads ./windows-process-tree.node staged beside
the bundle. The relay build asserts the symbol on the artifact it produces, but a
bundle and the addon beside it redeploy independently, so a host that has not
taken a new bundle keeps whatever binary is already there -- and the published
prebuilt is node-addon-api, so it binds cleanly and then walks every process's
address space. loadWindowsProcessTree now checks that file too and refuses it,
falling back to the CIM scan: slower, but not the thing an EDR quarantines a host
for. The predicate is duplicated rather than imported, because the config-script
copy is install-time tooling that drags in node-gyp and child_process, and this
module is bundled into the app and the relay.

And it returned false for a binary that is not there. All three callers happened
to be safe, but the name read as a safety predicate, so a future caller would take
a missing binary as verified. inspectWindowsProcessTreeAddon() now answers
clean/unpatched/missing over an explicit binary path -- which is also what lets
the relay's staged addon be checked at all -- and each caller states which state
it acts on.

Both are covered by cases that fail against the old code: without the load-time
check the unpatched staged addon is bound and the CIM fallback never runs, and
with 'missing' folded back into 'clean' the absence case fails outright.

* test(windows): load the addon in beforeAll, not at collection time

loadAddon() ran while the file was being collected, so on a Windows checkout with
no built addon the require threw before any case existed and took the seven
patch-text cases down with it -- cases that read only the patch file and need no
binary at all. Verified both ways against a deliberately unresolvable addon path:
at collection time vitest reports "no tests" for the file; from beforeAll the
seven text cases pass and only the three addon cases go.

* fix(deps): normalize the windows-process-tree patch to LF and let pnpm own its hash

`pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` failed on this branch on every platform with
ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH, which breaks CI and the release build.

Two coupled defects. The patch file was committed with CRLF -- 174 CR bytes,
against zero on main -- and `.gitattributes` pins `/config/patches/*.patch -text`
precisely so checkout cannot convert it, so those bytes reached every runner. And
pnpm hashes a patch **LF-normalized**, so the raw sha256 of a CRLF file is a value
pnpm never computes:

  raw sha256      322965470c05f63d8527f7d8e892ee26ee444136b66b57fd64c362a9f2ff05d1
  LF-normalized   f8ea245391c94da5770045aeea01fa6de466c2199c6ef46b5b769b398aa9823e

The lockfile carried the raw one, at all three sites. It is the only one of the
seven patches where the two digests differ, which is why the other six passed.

Normalized the patch to LF and took pnpm's own value from
`pnpm install --no-frozen-lockfile`; nothing here is hand-computed. With the file
LF-only the two interpretations coincide, so the lockfile, the contract test's
no-CR assertion and its hash assertion all agree at one number -- and
`config/scripts/windows-process-tree-patch-contract.test.mjs`, which was red on
this branch for the same reason, is green again. The lockfile diff is exactly the
three hash lines.

The regression check is the installer, not a digest. Two separate reviews
"verified" the shipped hash by recomputing sha256(patchBytes) and matching the
lockfile; both were wrong, because both repeated the same wrong assumption about
which bytes pnpm hashes. A check that reproduces the original mistake is not
independent. So the new case runs `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --lockfile-only
--ignore-scripts` against a copy of the manifest, lockfile and patches, and
asserts exit 0 -- verified by deletion: restoring the shipped hash fails it with
the exact ERR_PNPM_LOCKFILE_CONFIG_MISMATCH from the branch's package (windows)
job.

Also corrected the `.gitattributes` comment claiming pnpm hashes patches
byte-for-byte. The `-text` setting is right -- `git apply` needs the exact bytes --
but that sentence is the claim that produced the wrong hash twice.

* ci(windows): run the process-tree patch suites in CI

Both suites only self-skip off Windows, so the binary-level check that the
addon carries no ReadProcessMemory passed vacuously in every lane.

* fix(windows): force core.autocrlf=input for the patch repair

My LF normalization of the windows-process-tree patch broke the `git apply`
repair path introduced in this PR. The two are coupled and I checked only one.

Those 174 CR bytes were not editor noise. They sat on exactly the pre-image
lines and nowhere else -- 107/107 in src/process.cc, 67/67 in
src/process_commandline.cc, 0 on every added or context line -- because
@vscode/windows-process-tree@0.8.0 ships those two sources as CRLF. Normalizing
the patch made its pre-image stop matching the file it is applied against.

Measured, reconstructing the true CRLF pre-image from the pre-normalization
blob and applying the current LF patch:

  core.autocrlf   plain   -c core.autocrlf=input
  true            exit 0  exit 0
  input           exit 0  exit 0
  false           exit 1  exit 0

`false` is Git's own built-in default and what "checkout as-is" selects in the
Git for Windows installer -- on this box the `true` that hides it comes from the
installer's system gitconfig, not from anything in the repo. There the repair
throws, ensureWindowsProcessTreeCommandLinePatch reports "still reads the PEB,
and repairing it ... failed", isWindowsNativeLockError does not match that text,
and `pnpm install` dies with no path forward.

Forcing the mode rather than `--ignore-whitespace`: both fix every cell and both
leave the applied file fully LF, but `input` relaxes line endings only, so a hunk
whose real content drifted is still rejected. The repair rewrites a
security-relevant source file; it should stay strict about everything except the
thing that is legitimately ambiguous.

Not reverting the patch to CRLF: windows-process-tree-patch-contract.test.mjs
(pre-existing on main) forbids CR bytes in it, and pnpm computes the same hash
either way. LF plus the forced mode is the end state.

The suite could not have caught this. The fixture built its pre-image from the
patch itself and joined with '\n', so fixture and patch agreed by construction on
any encoding -- once again a test that passes without its fix. It now emits the
CRLF the real package ships, and the case runs under both autocrlf modes pinned
through a temp HOME gitconfig, because the repair blinds git to the repo and so
reads global config. Verified by deletion in both directions: with the flag
removed the autocrlf=false case fails with the exact "still reads the PEB" dead
end while autocrlf=true still passes, and with the fixture back on LF all eight
cases pass with no fix present at all.

Also corrected the .gitattributes comment I added last commit. It said `git
apply` needs the bytes the patch was written against, which is now false -- the
pinned bytes are LF and the bytes it was written against are CRLF. That is the
same class of confident-and-wrong claim that produced the bad hash twice.

* fix(windows): assert the rebuilt addon, and install the patch for real in tests

Three follow-ups from review.

**The packaged binary had no check.** The relay build asserts its own artifact
and ensure-native-runtime asserts what it loads, but nothing looked at the addon
copied into the packaged app -- so a rebuild that silently produced the upstream
reader shipped. `rebuild-native-deps.mjs` now asserts `clean` on it after
`rebuild()`. This is also the caller D4's tri-state was missing: every existing
site branches on `=== 'unpatched'`, so `missing` still behaved exactly like
`clean` everywhere, which was the thing making it a state rather than a boolean.
Here both non-clean states fail, and they fail differently: after a rebuild that
reported success, an absent binary is a broken build, not an absence to shrug at.

The fake `rebuild()` had to start producing a binary for that to mean anything,
so it now emits stand-in bytes and takes `addon: 'clean' | 'unpatched' | 'none'`.
Verified by deletion: with the assertion removed both new cases pass.

**The frozen-install case could not see a patch at all.** `--lockfile-only`
resolves and never applies one, so its coverage stops at hash consistency. Added
a case that installs `@vscode/windows-process-tree@0.8.0` for real with the patch
and asserts the materialized `src/process_commandline.cc` carries the marker and
no longer carries `ReadProcessMemory` -- about 1.5s for the pair.

Correcting the brief on that one: it does **not** catch the `git apply` breakage
from the previous commit. Measured -- with `-c core.autocrlf=input` removed it
passes cleanly, because `pnpm install` uses pnpm's own patch applier and never
runs our repair script. What it does catch is a patch pnpm can no longer apply:
corrupting one pre-image line fails both cases. The repair path stays covered by
the CRLF fixture in rebuild-native-deps-node-pty.test.mjs.

Worth recording, since it decides whether the LF normalization was safe at all:
pnpm applies the LF patch to the CRLF tarball sources without complaint, and
materializes them as LF with the marker present and `ReadProcessMemory` absent.
The primary install path was never affected -- only the `git apply` fallback was.

**Dead timeout.** The frozen-install case passed `timeoutMs: 300_000` to the
spawn while vitest capped the case itself at 30s, so on a cold runner vitest
would have killed it first. Both cases now declare the budget they use.

* test(windows): route the frozen-install check through the pnpm invocation owner

The new patched-dependencies check hand-rolled a PATH walk naming 'pnpm.cmd',
which the windows batch shim spawn boundary ratchet rejects: pnpm-cli-invocation
already owns that decision for every other script, and its allowlist only
shrinks.

Reuse resolvePnpmCliInvocation for the command and prefixArgs, and the shared
resolveCliCommand for the presence check, so no shim name is spelled here. Its
`shell` flag is dropped because runProcessSync refuses it and already drives a
shim through the interpreter itself.

OrcaWinandOrca Worker fba90e017c fix(windows): copy the daemon host exe verbatim instead of renaming it (MDE T1036) (#17865)
* docs(windows): document the EDR signal surface

Six Microsoft Defender for Endpoint incidents fired against Orca 1.4.192 in
eight days on one enterprise Windows 11 / Intune tenant. All six were
behavioural process-tree scoring, not signature hits; two escalated to
multi-stage incidents mapped to ATT&CK Execution and Collection.

Add a reference doc mapping each attack-technique-shaped behaviour to the code
that produces it and to why it exists: the renamed daemon image (T1036), the
per-process PEB read, encoded policy-bypassed PowerShell (T1049), caret-escaped
cmd.exe lines, and computer-use screen capture plus runtime-compiled MSIL
(T1113). Records that signing is not the gate -- reputation is signer plus
hash-keyed prevalence -- and carries the two evidence gaps the report noted.

Adds an engineer checklist, deployment guidance for admins (AV path exclusions
do not suppress EDR behavioural alerts; an MDE alert suppression rule does), and
an explicit pre-deployment warning about computer use.

* docs(windows): correct the PowerShell flag inventory and admin paths

Review corrections to the EDR posture doc.

The "encoded, policy-bypassing PowerShell" list conflated three different
shapes and was incomplete. Split it into the three tiers an EDR actually scores
differently -- bypass plus encoding, encoding alone, and bypass alone -- and add
the sites it missed, including windows-mobile-firewall.ts, which encodes a
script and launches it elevated through Start-Process -Verb RunAs. system-fonts.ts
(-Command) and desktop-script-provider-bridge.ts (-File) were listed as encoded
and are not. Notes that a raw grep under-reports, because the hook sites reach
-EncodedCommand through wrapWindowsPowerShellEncodedCommand.

Attribute the in-payload Set-ExecutionPolicy move to #16576 rather than to
#16003's measurement, which keyed on -WindowStyle Hidden + -EncodedCommand, and
record that the launcher's own tradeoff is unverified on a real box.

Admin guidance was missing two ways a suppression rule pinned to one full path
misses real activity: the .staging-<hex> sibling that exists mid-update, which
is when the update-cluster incidents fire, and the userData fallback when
LOCALAPPDATA is unset.

Also: state the measurement conditions on the process-table timings, note that
Hermes has surface even though we have no telemetry for it, note that the
uninstaller names are electron-builder-generated and in no repo file, drop a
volatile line count, and mark the per-operation computer-use shape as being
addressed by an unmerged change. Drops the duplicated AGENTS.md section, keeping
the indexed bullet.

* docs(windows): reconcile the EDR posture doc with the shipped remediation

Three claims in this doc became false once the rest of the Windows EDR set
landed, and two told engineers the opposite of what the release does.

The process-table section still described one shared snapshot taken with
`Memory | CommandLine | CreationTime`, argued that splitting the cache per
field set "would restore exactly the fan-out it exists to prevent", and
concluded the shape was unfixable because "the information is only in the
PEB". The split shipped (identity opens no handle at all), `Memory` is
retired, and the command line now comes from the kernel through
`ProcessCommandLineInformation` -- `ReadProcessMemory` is absent from the
compiled addon and a ratchet asserts it against the import table. An engineer
reading the old text would have concluded both fixes were dead ends.

The PowerShell site inventories were stale in three of four lists: the port
scan went native, every `-ExecutionPolicy Bypass` + `-EncodedCommand` pair
was dropped as a measured no-op, and of the unencoded-bypass list only
`wsl-cli-scripts.ts` survives. Regenerated against the merged tree, including
the sites that reach the flag through `wrapWindowsPowerShellEncodedCommand`
and never spell it, which a raw `rg` misses.

Incident-evidence sections are left alone: they record what the tenant observed
on 1.4.192, not what the code does now.

* fix(windows): copy the daemon host exe verbatim instead of renaming it

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint flagged `orca-terminal-daemon.exe` as MITRE
T1036 (Masquerading): Orca copied its own `Orca.exe` into %LOCALAPPDATA% under a
different name, specifically so the NSIS updater's `taskkill /IM Orca.exe` could
not match, then ran it detached. Because that process is what every other flagged
action was attributed to, the name mismatch acted as a reputation multiplier on
unrelated findings.

The rename was never what made the daemon survive. In app-builder-lib 26.15.3 the
installer's FIND_PROCESS/KILL_PROCESS select processes whose image path is under
$INSTDIR; `taskkill /IM` is only the fallback for hosts where PowerShell is
missing or blocked. Survival is a property of the path, and
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Orca\daemon-host is outside $INSTDIR whatever the file is called.

Derive the host exe name from process.execPath so the copy is byte-for-byte,
name included — it keeps its Authenticode signature and carries no renamed-image
signal. On the no-PowerShell fallback the daemon is now killed with the app and
terminals cold-restore, which is the documented pre-relocation outcome the update
harness already asserts, not a regression.

The uninstall macro no longer needs a distinct name to find the daemon; it kills
the app's own image name (plus the legacy name, for hosts left by older builds).

Adds docs/reference/windows-daemon-host-relocation.md with the survival contract,
the rejected alternatives and their measured costs, and the invariants to keep.

* fix(windows): apply daemon-host relocation review corrections

Scope the uninstall taskkill to the current user with `/FI "USERNAME eq
%USERNAME%"` via cmd.exe, matching upstream's per-user KILL_PROCESS — without it
an elevated machine-wide uninstall reaches another logged-on user's session, so
the "no collateral" claim in the comment was overstated.

Comment the rmSync-before-publish: Windows refuses to delete a running image, so
a live daemon already hosted in this version's dir (same-version reinstall, or a
dev channel reusing a version) throws and materialization fails open.

Doc corrections:
- The fallback selector is the full per-user `taskkill /F /IM "<app>.exe" /FI
  "PID ne $pid" /FI "USERNAME eq %USERNAME%"`, not a bare `taskkill /IM`.
- The probe reads `Get-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process`, not the effective policy,
  and GPO writes MachinePolicy/UserPolicy — so GPO-managed hosts take the primary
  path-scoped branch. Narrow the fallback triggers accordingly.
- Drop the Authenticode sentence: the old name was equally byte-identical and
  equally signed, so a filename has no bearing on signature validity.
- Name the new update-abort path: the daemon now matches FIND_PROCESS, so on the
  fallback branch an unkillable host reaches the retry loop's MessageBox /SD
  IDCANCEL and Quits, aborting a silent update.
- Correct the customCheckAppRunning rejection. It is ~6 lines, not a rewrite; it
  is wrong because forcing the PowerShell branch where PowerShell is absent makes
  FIND/KILL silently no-op and leaves the real app running with files in use.
- Bound the win honestly: OriginalFilename is empty on the shipped binary, so the
  strongest T1036 indicator never fired, and the residual copy-and-run-detached
  shape still maps to T1036.005.

Reconcile docs/reference/windows-edr-posture.md, which documents the rename as a
live finding and would otherwise contradict this change. Content-only edit:
markdown under docs/reference/ is not oxfmt-formatted as a matter of practice and
nothing in CI gates it, so the file is left consistent with its neighbours.

* fix(windows): expand USERNAME in NSIS instead of spawning cmd.exe

The uninstall macro routed both taskkills through `"$SYSDIR\cmd.exe" /C` purely
so `%USERNAME%` would expand — two extra interpreter spawns on the uninstall
path, in a change whose whole point is not adding scored behaviour, and the
exact `cmd.exe /c` shape the new AGENTS.md EDR bullet warns about. NSIS reads
the variable itself with ReadEnvStr, so the spawns buy nothing.

Verified on Windows 11 that the generated command line does what the filter is
there for: a copy of cmd.exe running as orca-nonexistent-probe.exe (pid 34244)
was terminated by `taskkill /F /IM "orca-nonexistent-probe.exe" /FI "USERNAME eq
<user>"` — SUCCESS, exit 0, process gone.

Guarded on an empty USERNAME because the degenerate case is silent: taskkill
rejects an empty filter value outright ("The search filter cannot be
recognized") and kills nothing, which would leave exactly the orphaned daemon
this macro exists to reap. `*` is rejected as a filter value too, so there is no
branchless spelling. With no USERNAME to scope by it kills unfiltered, as the
macro did before the filter was added. Stack stays balanced: three pushes, two
nsExec pops, three restores.

Also strike the last stale row in windows-edr-posture.md's remediation table.
"Copying our own image under a different name" read as outstanding work; it is
done by this change, so the row now points at the relocation doc. Same class of
staleness as the section reconciled in the previous commit, and git would not
have flagged it either.

* fix(windows): port the daemon-host uninstall sweep into the live NSIS include

The uninstall macro this branch rewrote lived in config/nsis/daemon-host-uninstall.nsh,
which main no longer includes: #17906 consolidated every Windows installer hook into
config/nsis/orca-installer-hooks.nsh because electron-builder accepts exactly one
`nsis.include`. Merged as-is, the rewritten macro would have been dead code while the
shipped uninstaller kept running main's stale sweep — `taskkill /F /IM
orca-terminal-daemon.exe`, which matches nothing now that the relocated host is a
verbatim Orca.exe copy. The RMDir that follows then cannot delete the running image, so
a live orphaned daemon and its ~224 MB tree would survive every uninstall.

Ported into the live include: the ${APP_EXECUTABLE_FILENAME} kill, the USERNAME filter
that keeps an elevated machine-wide uninstall out of another logged-on user's session,
and the register save/restore around both. The legacy orca-terminal-daemon.exe kill
stays so hosts left by older builds are still reaped.

The ratchet that was meant to catch exactly this pinned only the legacy image name,
which main's stale macro already satisfied, so it passed both ways. It now asserts the
app-exe kill and the USERNAME filter, against comment-stripped script — the prose above
the macro names both image names, so a toContain over the raw file proves nothing.

OrcaWinandOrca Worker b6ca8dad99 fix(hooks): register the Claude hook script directly on Windows (#18875) (#18905)
* fix(hooks): register the Claude hook script directly on Windows (#18875)

The Windows Claude Code lifecycle hook was registered as
`powershell.exe -NoProfile -EncodedCommand <...>` whose entire decoded payload
was a `Test-Path` and a call to `~/.orca/agent-hooks/claude-hook.cmd`. Every
hook event paid a full PowerShell start-up to reach a script that exits at its
first `ORCA_PANE_KEY` guard, so sessions outside Orca paid it to do nothing.

Register the script path itself instead, with `|| echo {}` for the
neutral-JSON-when-missing contract (#14818). Measured on Windows 11, invoked as
Claude Code invokes it (`printf payload | bash -c -l "<command>"`):

  idle (n=12)          baseline 177ms | before 471ms | after 213ms
  10-way conc (n=40)            --    | before 656ms | after 296ms
  p95 under load                --    | before 696ms | after 337ms

It also drops an interpreter from the chain the hook's timeout kill must tear
down. Killing the hook does not kill its PowerShell grandchild, which still
holds the stdout handle the agent reads to EOF -- measured, EOF arrived 352ms
AFTER the kill, when the orphan exited by itself. msys2 creates children
suspended and resumes them after, so a kill landing in that window strands one
that never exits and EOF never comes; that is the reported frozen session.

The encoded launcher stays as the fallback for profile paths the shells cannot
carry bare (space, `%`, `^`, `&`, non-ASCII) and for hosts where Git Bash is not
resolvable, because PowerShell 5.1 rejects `||`. Every other agent's hook is
untouched, as is the remote/SSH path.

Not adopted from the report: `cmd.exe /d /c <path>` (MSYS rewrites the `/c`
under Git Bash -- measured, the invocation fails), and raising the 10s timeout
(the orphan survives the kill regardless; the fast path puts the hook 30x under
the budget so the kill effectively stops firing).

* fix(build): list the new hook launcher modules in the CLI tsconfig project

config/tsconfig.cli.json enumerates its files explicitly, so the two new
imports reached by src/main/claude/hook-settings.ts failed tc:cli with TS6307.
src/main/git-bash.ts pulls in only node:fs, node:path and a shared constant,
so it adds nothing heavy to the CLI project.

* fix(hooks): address review of the direct Windows Claude hook launcher

- Make the Windows hook suites host-independent. A box with a cmd.exe AutoRun
  (HKCU\...\Command Processor\AutoRun) failed them at HEAD too: the tests
  redirect USERPROFILE, the AutoRun target vanishes, and MSYS spawns a .cmd
  without /d so AutoRun runs and lands on the hook's stderr. Seed an empty
  target, including under the deliberately-absent profile.
- Note in managed-hook-stdin-lifecycle why the "missing managed script" case no
  longer exercises the fallback for the direct shape (it carries an absolute
  path, so a redirected profile changes nothing); that path is covered live in
  windows-direct-cmd-hook-command.test.ts.
- Keep the direct shape off UNC profiles: WINDOWS_CMD_SAFE_PATH admits them, but
  //server/share/... is not a command cmd.exe reliably starts.
- Correct the comments: `|| echo {}` also fires when cmd.exe itself exits
  non-zero (failing AutoRun), printing {} twice. The encoded launcher exited 1
  on that same box, so neither shape is clean there.
- Test the contract that replaced runtime %USERPROFILE% resolution (STA-3348): a
  stale absolute path reports not_installed and is rewritten on install.
- Record the standing unmeasured assumption in windows-edr-posture.md: `||` does
  not parse in Windows PowerShell 5.1, so a compat consumer that hosts hook
  strings there would fail closed. Measure before widening to another agent.
- Trim the launcher comments per AGENTS.md; the numbers live in the doc.

* test(win32): register the new Windows-gated hook test in the CI lane

win32-test-lane-registration guards against exactly this: a Windows-gated file
that self-skips on ubuntu and reports success, so it runs on no machine. The new
windows-direct-cmd-hook-command.test.ts needs both entries — WINDOWS_PACKAGE_TESTS
decides whether package_windows runs for a diff, and the workflow argv decides
whether the file runs once that job started.

* test(win32): remove the hook temp tree through the retrying helper

windows-lane-tree-removal-boundary scans exactly the specs in the Windows CI
lane, so registering windows-direct-cmd-hook-command.test.ts subjected it to the
rule: cmd.exe and bash have just exited in that tree, and a raw recursive rm
throws EPERM on Windows while their handles drain, turning a green spec into a
lane failure. Use removeTreeSync, which carries the repo's maxRetries policy.
