* wip(layout): applyDefaultTabs command in the layout model (dark) * wip(layout): applyDefaultTabs takes the window's proposed ids; main refuses a taken one * wip(layout): main closes or keeps an exited split pane by the window's rule (dark) * wip(layout): a create or split sent again after its close is refused (dark) * wip: typed test doubles * wip(layout): main writes a worktree's default tabs in one command and starts them, window or none (dark; twin e) * wip(layout): main writes a worktree's default tabs in one command and starts them, window or none (dark; twin e) * wip(layout): main provisions setup and default tabs even when the agent fails to start; no window takes over (dark) * wip(layout): pane start status in frames; a failed start keeps its pane; a terminal close stands after a failed write (dark) * wip: lint fixes (max-lines, test throws) * test(layout): a terminal close stands after a real failed profile write; switch off still refuses * fix(layout): checked types in the close-failure rule and its tests * fix(layout): a failed start keeps its pane whatever failed; default tabs start once; a tab's last pane keeps its card (dark) * test(layout): the agent's kept pane counts as the workspace's terminal; main starts it whatever failed * fix(layout): the switch-off create path gains no await * fix(layout): a failed start never writes back a pane the user closed (dark) * fix(layout): a failed start's pane goes through main's create rules, so a closed tab stays closed (dark) * test(layout): D1a's switch-on close tests assert the intent main receives (both builds) * test(layout): the close fixture answers main's command without naming the method * fix(layout): a re-created pane binds as designed; the id-only ratchet reads a shared import (dark) * fix(layout): a pane's start status may sit on a pane still bound to its old terminal (dark) * fix(layout): a pane's start status ends when its pane binds again by any path (dark) * test(layout): same-id restore ends a status; a replayed split brings back a closed pane by design * test(layout): terminal reply fixtures captured from the window-owned build, and main's switch-on proofs * wip(layout): main's terminal surface index feeds the runtime graph (dark) * wip(layout): main's panes stand in for the window's terminal list (dark) * test(layout): the window sends main-listed panes as mount facts (dark) * test(layout): surface proofs use public runtime calls * chore: lint * feat(layout): close by handle closes in main's layout; the close-time relist goes (dark) * feat(layout): main's binding outranks a caller's pane claim on the terminal record (dark) * test(layout): window-list tests stay on the rollback build; switch-on mount-fact cases (dark) * wip(layout): main's terminal index reads E1's shared projection and follows its operation ends (dark) * refactor(layout): the main-surfaces host lives beside the session-tabs readers, keeping the graph file under its line cap (dark) * fix(layout): main's panes skip the window-era membership fence, follow workspace routing, and list a terminal when it registers; window close only hands the graph back (dark) * refactor(runtime): explicit-close PTY stops move unchanged to their own module, for the file's line cap * test(layout): the cold-restore table runs in a layout-owner build too: one push per registration * test(layout): the parked and automation pane tests assert the same window report in both builds (mount facts with the switch on) * chore: one layout-owner switch import after the restack on D1a * feat(layout): main's terminal.list rows carry the host's verdict; a pane with a status is never live (dark) * chore(layout): fit main's surfaces under the lint gates after the D1a restack * feat(layout): every pane status D1a publishes keeps a row from reading live; remote host answers pass through (dark) * feat(layout): a drag-out moves main's own binding and refuses the home copy's last pane; the window's terminal claim is not consulted (L127, dark) * fix(layout): a tab close by a starting pane's handle stops the tab's terminals; a starting pane is never exited on the inventory alone; terminal.list lists every saved pane main owns; the pane claim lookup leaves the output path (dark) * fix(terminal): keep shipped exit and default-tab behaviour with the layout switch on An exited pane closes through the legacy retirement unless the keep rule holds; the default tab's title and color still reach the window and the phone's live tabs. * fix(terminal): one id guard for every pane write; keep panes on an unvouched -1 Main's taken and closed-id guard now runs where every pane write goes, so a runtime create replayed after its tab closed is refused before it spawns. An exit code nothing vouches for keeps the pane, as the window does; a kept pane sends the phone no retirement. Converts the switch-on tests that asserted the deleted window hand-off and title bridge. * fix(terminal): keep the closed-tab guard on every pane write, held-id checks on client commands A paired host starts each pane of a client's tab as a create under the tab's id, so a held tab id is refused only for a client's own layout command. * fix(terminal): a provider-reported -1 keeps the pane, as the window does Only a requested stop or a host-confirmed death closes a pane on a negative exit code. Pins that the closed-tab guard never fires in the shipped build. * chore(terminal): satisfy the exhaustive-switch and test typing checks * test(terminal): give the replay test's live process a cwd * fix(layout): main's index reads routing only for a workspace two partitions hold, the fence reads ownership once, a legacy pane keeps its claim; switch-on tests assert main's answers after a window closes (dark) * refactor(runtime): a worktree stop's terminal collection moves unchanged to its own module, for the file's line cap * fix(layout): main's index routes every workspace as the layout stream does, re-reading routing only on a write or a terminal registration; a worktree stop names every terminal main binds; a starting pane is unverifiable (dark) * feat(layout): a workspace main owns publishes its terminal and editor session.tabs rows from main's layout; the window still supplies browser, chat and view-only rows until D3b (A2, dark) * chore: lint * test: type the row fixtures * chore(layout): main's session.tabs projection is an old-client entry, imported only by main's terminal surface index * fix(layout): main's session.tabs rows carry the tab's name, the window's agent status and markdown file id, list rows in tab order, and keep groups and selection consistent (A2, dark) * refactor(layout): the projection's group order moves unchanged to its own old-client module, for the file's line cap; lint * feat(layout): every pane status main publishes keeps a row from reading live; a resuming pane is unverifiable like a starting one (dark) * test(layout): a windowless server's layout change reaches a subscribed phone's session.tabs rows (dark) * fix(layout): a window-only row keeps its place in the rows, the window's selected row lands in a group that selects it, and a workspace with no main group keeps the window's groups (A2, dark) * fix(layout): a pane main has no binding for yet keeps the window's terminal in its phone row, so an SSH restore lists it pending (A2, dark; ledger L243) * fix(session-tabs): phones show the window's live selection, focused pane, dirty state and titles over main's saved view; exited terminals stay gone; stray rows join the active group (switch-on builds only) * fix(session-tabs): main's groups stand with main's selection; certified exits only; a selected stray row joins main's active group --------- Co-authored-by: E2E Test <e2e@test.local>

Features
Also in the box:
- Quick open — Search across worktrees, files, agents, commands, and repo context without leaving your flow.
- Account switcher & usage tracking — See Claude and Codex usage and rate-limit resets, and hot-swap accounts without re-logging in.
- Rich repo previews — Preview Markdown, images, PDFs, and repo docs in the workspace.
- Computer Use — Let agents operate desktop apps and visible UI when a workflow needs real interaction.
- Notifications and unread state — Know when an agent finishes or needs attention, then mark threads unread to come back later.
- And many, many more — we ship daily, so this list is perpetually behind. The changelog is the real feature list.
