l0ng-ai 56b4769d9c docs(privacy): update.log is a file tty7 writes, so list it
The privacy page accounts for every file tty7 leaves in the config
directory, and `crash.rs` has a test holding it to that. The test named
two files. There are three: the updater appends `<config>/update.log`
while it installs a release — what it verified, what it replaced, and why
it stopped if it did.

It is written whenever an update runs, not only under `TTY7_LOG`. That
makes it exactly what the test's own comment describes as belonging on
the page: "a file written without being asked for". It is also the only
account of a swap that happens after the window is gone, which is why it
exists.

The guard now names all three, and was checked against the page as it
was.

Also corrects a filename I got wrong in the previous commit: the doc
comment on `install_crash_log` called this file `tty7-updater.log`. There
is no such file — I invented the name while describing what a silent
panic costs, and it went in unchecked. It is `update.log`, and finding
that is what turned up the missing page entry.

l0ng-ai 21ddd01bc9 fix(updater): record a panic where someone can find it
`crash::install` puts a panic hook in front of `crash.log`. The GUI
installs it and the server installs it. The updater did not — and of the
three it is the one that needs it most.

It runs *detached*, after the GUI it is replacing has exited, so its
stderr is attached to nothing anybody will read. And it is doing the one
job in this product that can leave an install broken. A panic mid-swap
was therefore silence: the app does not come back, `tty7-updater.log`
stops mid-sentence, and there is nothing anywhere that says why.

All three of its `cfg`'d mains install it now, so the role travels with
whichever platform failed. `crash.log` is the file the other two roles
already write, in the config directory, so the three land in one place in
the order they failed.

The CLI stays out deliberately: it is a short-lived foreground process
whose panic prints to a terminal someone is already looking at, and a
second copy in `crash.log` buys nothing.

The guard reads the three entry points rather than a list kept here, and
was checked against the state that shipped — it names the updater.

The mechanism itself was already covered: `a_panic_lands_in_the_crash_log`
proves the hook writes the record. What nothing held was whether each
binary calls it, which is exactly what was missing.

l0ng-ai c6e878281d fix(updater): read the designated requirement off the stream it is on (#708)
`codesign -d -r-` writes the requirement to stdout and puts only the `-d`
display header (`Executable=…`) on stderr. `signing_requirement` searched
stderr, so the `designated => ` prefix could never match and every in-app
update on macOS ended at "codesign did not report a designated
requirement" — every build, every channel, with nothing a user could do
but download the app again by hand.

Verified against codesign rather than reasoned about:

    $ codesign -d -r- /bin/ls
    stdout: designated => identifier "com.apple.ls" and anchor apple
    stderr: Executable=/bin/ls

Both streams are read now, stdout first. Which half goes where is
codesign's own business and has moved before; a requirement printed
anywhere in the output is the requirement, and the updater has no reason
to be the stricter party about where it appeared.

The parse is split out of the process call, which is the part that
matters for it staying fixed. Fused to `Command::output`, it could only
run against a real signed bundle, so nothing in a test suite ever
executed it — that is why a total failure of the macOS update path
shipped and stayed. `/bin/ls` is the bundle it was missing: Apple-signed,
on every macOS, and it answers `-d -r-` with a requirement of its own, so
the stream split is now asserted against the tool instead of against our
belief about it.

Both tests were run against the old stderr-only parse; both fail there.

webdev ac3c95a647 feat(update): install verified Linux AppImage releases in app (#306) (#652)
The last platform from #306: a Linux install running as an AppImage can
now download, verify, and apply a release from inside the app, through
the same tty7-updater helper the macOS (#309) and Windows (#330) paths
use. Tarball and distro installs are deliberately untouched — they keep
the named-package hint and the release page, because replacing a file a
package manager may own is not this code's call to make.

The installed artifact is one file, the path $APPIMAGE names, so the
install is the simplest of the three platforms: stage the download
beside the image (two renames only stay atomic on one filesystem),
verify, swap, relaunch, and restore the preserved previous image if the
new one does not survive its launch grace. What is Linux-shaped about
it is the mount: the image the GUI runs from is FUSE-mounted by the
AppImage runtime and torn down when the app exits, which is the moment
the installer starts working — so the GUI copies the helper out of the
mount into staging and runs the copy, the way the Windows path runs a
private copy because Setup replaces the installed one. The daemon is
left running throughout, as on macOS: nothing on Linux locks a running
executable's file, and the panes it serves are the reason the update
restarts only the GUI. The swap also carries the installed image's own
mode onto its replacement, so a 0700 image stays private and the
download's missing execute bit never reaches the installation.

Verification holds the issue's requirements with what an unsigned ELF
can offer: the bytes must match the release's checksums.txt, the file
must actually be a type-2 AppImage — a mis-published asset fails with a
name instead of at launch — and the image must state the version it
claims. That statement is new: bundle-appimage.sh stamps
X-AppImage-Version into the desktop entry, and the updater reads it
back with one --appimage-extract, answered by the runtime before any
application code and without FUSE. The same pass requires the new image
to bundle its own tty7-updater, because an image without one would
install fine and then be the last version that ever could.

release.yml and nightly.yml now build the updater on the Linux leg and
bundle it into the AppImage, and both check the packaged image for the
same facts the updater checks on a user's machine — helper present,
version stamped — so a packaging mistake fails the workflow instead of
the update. The first release carrying this can only bootstrap: images
already installed predate the helper and keep the manual hint, so the
first complete in-app update is the release after it.

l0ng-ai 29611a3227 fix(updater): tell a macOS user where the app went, as Windows does
Checking whether the Windows arm shared the bug fixed in 8959421 found it
already right — and better. `rollback_portable_failure` is one helper
called from both failure sites, so its two arms cannot drift; it removes
the backup only `if restore.is_ok()`; and `recovery_error` ends the
message with "backup preserved at {path}".

macOS said only "restoring the previous app: {restore}". Same situation —
the update failed, the restore failed, there is no app — and the platform
that leaves someone without one was the platform that did not say where
the copy is. Both macOS arms now end the same way, with the same words
Windows uses.

Nobody is reading this message while things are going well. It is what is
left when an update has taken the app and failed to put it back, and a
path in it is the difference between a recoverable morning and a
reinstall.
2026-08-16 04:06:30 +08:00
l0ng-ai 8959421e2d fix(updater): keep the backup when the app cannot be put back
`replace_and_relaunch` moves the current bundle into the stage, then
renames the replacement into its place. Between those two lines there is
no app at all, and the backup inside the stage is the only copy.

If the second rename failed, the restore was attempted with `let _ =` and
the stage was deleted regardless. A restore that failed therefore took
the backup with it: nothing at `current`, no copy left, and an error that
named only the swap. That is a reinstall.

The launch-failure arm ten lines below already does this correctly — it
matches on the restore, reports it in the message, and leaves the stage
alone so the backup survives. This one now does the same. Two arms of the
same function disagreeing about how much care a missing app deserves is
the whole of the bug.

The new test covers the swap-failure path, which had none: a replacement
that was never extracted fails the second rename, and the previous app
has to be back at `current` with its own marker. Removing the restore
fails it.

What it does not cover is the restore *itself* failing — the seams here
are `launch` and `report`, and neither runs between the two renames, so
forcing that would mean injecting the rename. The correctness of that arm
rests on mirroring the tested one below it.

b2d73ec68b feat(update): update an all-users Windows install through one UAC prompt (#562)
* fix(update): surface a failed install instead of silently re-prompting (#540)

The GUI quits as soon as tty7-updater is spawned, so an install that
failed inside the helper left a trace only in update.log — and because
launching the helper had already cleared the prompt state, the next
check offered the same version again, and again. The failure mode the
user saw was an app that nagged about an update it could not install.

The helper now writes update-outcome.json beside update.json on every
terminal path it can still reach, and the next GUI launch folds it into
the update state: a failure shows in Settings with the installer's own
reason until dismissed and stops the version from re-prompting on its
own; a success at the running version retires a failure an earlier
attempt recorded. A leftover result that exists but cannot be parsed is
reported rather than dropped — something ran, and "unreadable" is a
result too.

The same change moves the config directory off the environment and onto
the command line (--config-dir). An elevated child process does not
inherit the spawner's environment, so TTY7_CONFIG_DIR would have fallen
back to the administrator's config directory exactly in the
over-the-shoulder case — the groundwork this lays for #504. The updater
re-exports the variable for the helper children it spawns itself, so
the relaunched app keeps answering for the same config directory.

* feat(update): update an all-users Windows install through one UAC prompt (#504)

An Inno install under C:\Program Files could not be replaced in place:
the updater ran the release Setup as the signed-in user, which either
installed a second, per-user copy beside the real one or let Inno
re-launch itself elevated — a bare UAC prompt for an unsigned
executable in %TEMP%, seconds after the GUI had vanished. So the
layout was refused outright and told to download by hand.

It now updates itself, with the split the design in #504 settled on:
one UAC prompt covering two privileged stages, and one watcher that
is never elevated at all.

- The GUI probes the *installed* updater for the new verbs by running
  it ("capabilities"), so a side-loaded or downgraded binary answers
  for itself instead of being trusted by version number. An updater
  that predates the verbs exits with a usage error, and the install
  falls back to pointing at the release page exactly as before — the
  first release carrying this still updates the old way, and the one
  after it updates itself.
- The prompt dialog says the UAC prompt is coming before the app
  quits, and stops offering "Install on Next Launch": nobody is there
  to answer a prompt before the first window exists. The same guard
  keeps a staged plan from being armed for the next launch, and
  apply_pending_at_launch leaves an elevation-needing plan staged
  rather than raising a windowless prompt at boot.
- "Install now" spawns the watcher first (medium integrity, the
  signed-in user's token, so the relaunched app is never elevated),
  then ShellExecuteEx "runas" on the installed updater — the trust
  root a medium-integrity process cannot rewrite. Everything the
  elevated half needs crosses as command-line arguments, because an
  over-the-shoulder child inherits neither the environment nor the
  user's profile. The package's expected SHA-256 crosses the same
  way, from the checksums the GUI already holds in memory, so a
  payload and its checksums file cannot be rewritten together behind
  the IL boundary.
- The privileged first stage re-verifies the payload against that
  digest, pins its helper byte-for-byte to the installed updater,
  stages both in a fresh administrator-only %ProgramData% directory
  (an explicit SDDL DACL, swept of stale directories first), and only
  then runs the install stage — which runs Setup silently, writes the
  outcome file, and never touches the app binary itself. The watcher
  follows the chain through the status file and pid liveness
  (ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED from OpenProcess still means "alive" across
  accounts), then relaunches the app de-elevated and probes that it
  actually came up.
- Declining the UAC prompt is not an error: the watcher is reaped,
  nothing ran elevated, and the staged package simply waits in
  Settings.

Persisted plans from before this protocol serde-default a plan
version that is_usable rejects, so a stale plan is discarded instead
of failing against a helper that would not understand its arguments.
The installer script's explorer-menu registration gains skipifsilent:
a silent run *is* this update path, and launching the app there would
write the menu into the administrator's hive under over-the-shoulder
elevation.

One note on the test suite: ui::remote_connect's
a_routed_auth_prompt_carries_the_machine_that_raised_it fails under
parallel test execution on this machine both with and without this
change — a pre-existing flake, unrelated.

* fix(update): run the UAC request off the UI thread

Real-machine verification of the elevated chain caught this on the
first click: ShellExecuteExW pumps the calling thread's message loop
while the shell raises the consent prompt (its change notifications
re-enter the window), and from the UI thread that re-enters gpui with
its App already borrowed — the process aborts on a RefCell
double-borrow before anything ever elevates. The launch — watcher
spawn included, so the pairing stays atomic — now runs on the
background executor, and only the bookkeeping (quit / decline /
failure) comes back to the UI thread.

* fix(update): throttle a failed version instead of retiring it (#540)

Per the review on #540: a failed install must not keep the version
retired via last_prompted — record last_prompted plus a fresh
remind_after deadline (the same three days "Later" uses), so the
version asks again once the reminder expires. should_prompt already
treats "last_prompted matches, reminder expired" as prompt-again, so
no logic change is needed there, and the pinned
a_failure_lets_the_version_prompt_again test still holds.

Also write update-outcome.json *before* relaunching the previous app
on the macOS/Windows/portable non-elevated paths: the GUI that comes
up next is exactly the process that absorbs the outcome, and it used
to be relaunched before the failure existed on disk. The elevated
chain is unchanged — its watcher already waited for the file.

* fix(update): let only the elevated updater's own image name the trust root

Three holes on the privileged side of the #504 chain, all of the same
shape: a value that decides what runs elevated was taken from the
medium-integrity caller.

- `elevated-stage` pinned the staged helper against
  `<install-dir>\tty7-updater.exe`, where `<install-dir>` is a
  command-line argument. Both halves of that comparison were the
  caller's to choose: name a directory holding two copies of any
  binary and the pin passes, then stage 2 runs it elevated. The stage
  now derives the installation from its own image — UAC pointed the
  prompt at `{app}\tty7-updater.exe`, so `current_exe` is the one path
  nothing below the boundary could have written — and passes that on
  to stage 2. A caller that named a different directory only gets a
  line in the log.

- The staging directory's DACL let no standard user in, but its parent
  did: `%ProgramData%` grants Users the right to create directories,
  and the creator owns what it creates. A pre-created
  `%ProgramData%\tty7` gave its owner delete-child over the
  administrator-only staging inside it — enough to rename the verified
  staging aside and drop an identical name of their own into the gap
  between the digest check and the execute. The root is now created
  with the same protected descriptor, taking down whatever holds the
  name first; `CreateDirectoryW` applies a descriptor only when it is
  the one creating the directory, so succeeding is the proof. The
  per-run sweep goes with it — the root's removal takes the leftovers.

- The GUI aimed the prompt at the updater the *plan* named, and
  `update.json` sits in the user's config directory. It now aims at
  the installation this process runs from, so the binary the prompt
  names is the binary that starts.

Also quote the elevated command line the way `CommandLineToArgvW`
reads it back: a backslash escapes only in front of a quote, so a
config directory ending in one used to escape its own closing quote
and swallow every argument after it, `--result-file` — the file the
watcher waits on — included.

* test(update): pin the elevated stage's trust root to its own image

A regression test for the shape of the hole rather than the hole: if
`installed_root` ever goes back to reading an argument, the pin the
elevated stage runs before executing the staged helper stops meaning
anything, and nothing else in the suite would notice.

* fix(update): bring tty7 back when the elevated chain never reports

The watcher's two timeouts returned without relaunching. Every other
way out of the chain ends with the app back on screen, but a stage 1
that died before writing its status or its outcome — killed, crashed,
an AppInfo service that never delivered it — left the user with the
GUI already quit, nothing to replace it, and nothing said. Same for an
install still running an hour later.

Both paths now end the way the others do: an outcome the watcher wrote
itself, then the relaunch. The synthesized outcome is written whether
or not the relaunch succeeds, which also closes the same gap on the
pre-existing "the elevated updater exited without recording a result"
path — the next launch can name what happened instead of silently
offering the version again.

What kept those paths from relaunching was the risk of a second window
beside a GUI that is still up: a declined prompt leaves this process
running, and the kill that reaps its watcher can lose. The watcher now
takes the GUI's pid and opens a handle to it at startup — while the
GUI is provably alive, since it is sitting in ShellExecuteExW waiting
on the prompt — so the number cannot be recycled out from under it.
Before relaunching, a GUI that is still alive is waited out for 30
seconds: one that is quitting (a chain that failed fast can beat it
out the door) is gone well inside that and gets its relaunch, one that
is staying is recognized as staying and gets neither a relaunch nor a
failure record it did not earn. A live process always answers to its
own pid, so the check cannot be wrong in the direction that
double-launches.

Also give the Japanese elevation notice its closing 。

* fix(update): poll the parent out across the elevation account boundary

Under an over-the-shoulder elevation the install stage runs as the
administrator, and OpenProcess on the signed-in user's GUI answers
ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED - the same boundary pid_alive already documents from
the watcher's side. wait_for_exit treated that as a fatal error, so the
chain recovered and reported a failure before Setup ever ran. The wait
now degrades to polling the pid until it stops answering, bounded so a
recycled pid cannot hold the install hostage forever.

Hongwei Qinandl0ng-ai a2d53a9597 fix: 19 项低危 UX 问题(#584–#602) (#615)
* fix(scm): say what "discard all" actually discards (#594)

The group-level Discard prompt asked to "discard every change in this
repository", but discard_all_ops has only ever swept unstaged edits and
untracked files — staged changes survive, as the function's own comment
notes. Users confirmed under one belief and the code kept another.

Narrow the prompt to the operation's real footprint, in all three
languages.

* fix(scm): keep the amend toggle when its confirmation is cancelled (#595)

scm_commit cleared scm.amend when Commit was pressed, before the
"rewrite the last commit?" prompt. Answering Cancel returned to a panel
whose amend mode had silently been dropped, so the next Commit created a
brand-new commit — exactly what the user had just declined to risk.

The toggle now clears where scm.committing arms, at dispatch in
run_git_op, extending the rule the armed flag already followed: a
cancelled confirmation leaves nothing behind.

* fix(cli): answer a wait timeout in the success path's JSON shape (#589)

The 124 branch returned {pane,status,timed_out} while a finished wait
returns {pane,status,matched,stale,activity,message,session_id} — so the
one branch a consumer writes error handling for was the one missing its
fields. The timeout now carries the full shape plus timed_out, and
reference.mdx documents the schema and the flag.

* fix(cli): report a failed wait on stderr, even under -q (#590)

wait's failures are structured exits (124, or 1 when the pane died
first), so they never passed through the anyhow path whose eprintln is
the only thing quiet mode cannot silence — contradicting the documented
"errors still go to stderr". Both exits now print their headline to
stderr, the discipline pane close already established.

* docs(cli): describe owner as the workspace that may attach (#591)

commands.md still claimed the CLI stamps a literal "tty7-cli" owner on
the panes it spawns — the behaviour the orphan-workspaces work removed,
because an owner names the workspace allowed to attach and a stranger's
stamp got the panes respawned. Every spawn path now writes the workspace
id, or nothing while the pane is still unfiled. Bring commands.md in
line with reference.mdx, and note the absent case in both.

* docs(cli): close five contract drifts between the tables and the code (#592)

- The key tables listed pgup/pgdn as aliases but not pgdown, which the
  parser has always taken; both references name it now.
- "Case-insensitive" was flat wrong for Alt: M-x keeps its case because
  Alt is a prefixed ESC, unlike Ctrl. Both references note the exception.
- procs' ports JSON has carried addr since the field exists; both schemas
  show it.
- TTY7_WS is tab ls's default too; both environment tables say so.
- split --ratio's clamp to [0.05, 0.95] was discoverable only in code;
  both split sections document it.

* fix(cli): doctor exits 1 when the server is unreachable (#592)

doctor is the verb people run when something is not working, so an
unreachable server is *the* finding — not a row to exit 0 over while
`tty7 doctor || alert` never fires. The table and JSON still go out
(the context rows are the other half of what doctor is for), and stderr
carries the headline under -q. MockBackend grows an `unreachable` flag
so the branch is testable; no Status/Routes round-trips happen once
hello has failed.

* fix(settings): refuse a Start-in path that names no directory (#601)

The custom path was stored unchecked, and the daemon's picker then
skipped it — not a directory — so every new pane silently started in
the fallback directory and the typo read as a tty7 bug. Settings now
marks the field red and refuses to save, the proxy row's pattern
(#551), with the red line and the commit gated on one shared predicate
so they can never disagree; a hand-edited config.json holding such a
path gets a log::warn! naming it at the moment the fallback engages.

* fix(terminal): rescan search highlights when the pane's width changes (#586)

A match point is an absolute (line, column) against the width it was
scanned at, so a column change reflows the text out from under every
highlight. Output rescans them (Wakeup → refresh), but a quiet local
pane has no output coming and the drift outlasted the resize
indefinitely. set_grid_size now rescans on a column change with the
output path's discipline — selection and scroll untouched — and takes
the Context it needs to do so; a rows-only change reflows nothing and
stays cheap.

* fix(terminal): keep the grid selection when the search bar opens and closes (#584)

The selection that seeds the query is the thing being searched for, yet
opening the bar ran recompute_matches' unconditional clear — right for
its other callers, where the user *changed* the query and the old
selection names nothing — and closing cleared it again, so select →
Ctrl+F → Esc lost the selection every time. The seeded selection is now
restored after the opening scan, and close_search no longer clears; a
query the user actually changed still retires the stale selection, the
discipline refresh_matches_after_output already stated.

* fix(tabs): a zoomed pane stays zoomed across a tab switch (#599)

Zoom was a window-level value that activate() cleared unconditionally,
so looking at another tab and coming back restored the split layout —
while a zoom is a tab's temporary view state, like its focused pane.
It now rides with the Tab: activate stashes the outgoing tab's zoom and
brings the incoming tab's back. The clears that genuinely reshape the
layout (drag, split, close) still stand, and a stashed zoom whose pane
exited while the tab was away is validated away rather than restored.

* fix(tabs): track an open rename box by tree id, not index (#598)

The rename box held only an index, which drifts the moment any other
tab closes or the strip reorders — so close_tab_inner and
apply_tab_order threw the half-typed name away on any unrelated tab
event, and a reorder mid-rename still left a window where the commit
landed on whichever tab had taken the index over. The box now names its
tab by tree id end to end (start, render match, commit): only closing
the renaming tab itself ends the rename, and the name lands on the tab
the box was opened on wherever it has since moved.

* fix(i18n): move seven hard-coded user-facing strings into the language tables (#602)

Seven spots rendered English no matter which UI language was set: the
shell-integration notice that explains why a wrapper was blocked or never
engaged, the titles a pane wears once its process exits or the server
loses it, the loopback forward's failure line, the tray tooltip that
lists running agents (whose separator also wanted a CJK enumeration
comma), the cursor-shape choices in settings, the command palette's
empty-result hint, and the updater's install hint. Each is a L10nKey now
with en/zh/ja entries, so the parity guard keeps them translated from
here on.

The palette's empty state was also wrong in content, not just language:
every menu suggested connecting over SSH when nothing matched, including
menus that have no hosts in them. The hint now only appears in the
quick-connect menu; everywhere else the palette suggests a different
search instead.

Verified on Linux: the title/palette/tray suites (48 tests) and the i18n
parity guard all pass.

* fix(terminal): show remote path completion is listing, and say when it fails (#585)

Tab-completing a path on a remote workspace had two silences. The whole
network round-trip painted nothing, so a slow link read as a broken Tab
key; and a listing that failed was unwrapped into an empty candidate
list, so "the directory is empty" and "the listing never happened" ended
in the same nothing.

A pill over the pane's bottom-right corner — the style the integration
notice already uses, factored out — now says the listing is running from
the moment it starts, and a failed listing sets a notice with its error
instead of the empty vector. The failure pill stays until the next
keystroke dismisses it, and the trailing notify after an empty listing
closes the menu brings the "listing…" pill down with it.

Verified on Linux: the new gpui test covers the idle/listing/failed
states, and the neighbouring completion tests still pass.

* fix(files): quote cd Here / Insert Path for the shell the pane runs (#593)

Both file-tree actions wrapped a path with spaces in POSIX single quotes
whatever the focused pane's shell was. In cmd.exe a single quote is an
ordinary character, so `cd 'C:\Users\me\My Documents'` split at the
first space and cmd complained about 'C:\Users\me\My' — while the same
action was fine in PowerShell and bash, which is why only cmd users ever
saw it.

shell_quote_for takes the pane's shell program (the pane already knows
it — the settings page lists it) and picks double quotes for cmd.exe,
single quotes for everything else; an unknown shell keeps the POSIX
form, and a path that needs no quoting stays bare either way. Windows
paths cannot contain a double quote, so the cmd form has nothing to
escape.

* fix(cli): pane close fails for a pane the registry does not hold (#588)

`tty7 pane close %99` printed {"closed":[99]} and exited 0 for a pane
that never existed. The workspace path cannot drift this way — PaneClose
answers — but an orphan has no workspace to route through, so close
hangs it up directly, and that kill is fire-and-forget: the daemon never
says whether it knew the pane, so Ok(()) only ever meant the bytes
reached the socket. A reaper script chasing the orphans `pane ls --all`
points at would read the ghost success as cleanup done.

The direct path now reads the running-pane registry once per batch and
refuses ids it does not hold: the miss lands in `failed` with exit 1,
next to the failures kill itself can report. A pane that exits between
the listing and the kill is gone either way, which is what closing it
wanted, so that race still reports closed.

* fix(session): a launch that leaves workspaces running says so (#597)

Quitting with several windows open and starting again restored only the
most recent one; every other open window was marked detached — panes
alive, nothing on screen, the only trace a "left N detached" log line.
The workspaces were reachable from the sidebar, but nothing said they
existed, so they were easy to forget entirely.

restore_one now returns how many windows it detached, and both launch
paths (normal startup and the CLI-driven open) push an in-app
notification into the restored window naming the count and where to
reopen them. The count rides the return value rather than firing the
notification inside the store, because the store has no window to notify
in — and a launch that detaches nothing, like the reattach-the-last-
closed case, stays silent.

* fix(switcher): list the local machine's orphan panes, with a way to close them (#596)

A pane whose workspace went away — an interrupted `tty7 run`, a forgotten
workspace that kept its shells — was invisible everywhere in the GUI: not
in the sidebar, not in the switcher, not in the tray. It kept its process
and its memory, and the only way to even learn it existed was the CLI's
`tty7 pane ls --all`, which a GUI-only user never runs.

The switcher's local machine group now carries a "Background panes" block
under its workspace rows: one line per live pane the daemon's registry
holds and no workspace does — id, owner, cwd — each with a Close button.
The listing is the same PaneClient::list the CLI's reaper reads, fetched
off the UI thread when the panel opens; closing kills and then re-lists,
so a pane that survived simply stays on the list instead of pretending
to be gone. The block steps out of the way while the search field holds
a query, which narrows the panel to workspaces.

Local on purpose: a remote machine's orphans belong to its own daemon,
and routing a listing per host is what the CLI reaper is already for.
The block joins no keyboard navigation — the panes are not workspaces
and the arrows have no business landing on them.

* fix(updater): keep Inno's progress window on screen during the install (#600)

The Windows installer ran /VERYSILENT, so from the app quitting for the
update to the watcher bringing the new build up — tens of seconds, longer
under an antivirus scan — the screen held nothing at all: no window, no
progress, no tray note. "Clicked update, the app vanished" reads as a
crash, and double-clicking the icon does nothing while the files are
being replaced.

The installer now runs /SILENT instead. Nothing about the flow becomes
interactive — /SP-, /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES, /NORESTART and /CLOSEAPPLICATIONS
are untouched — but Inno's own progress window stays on screen for the
gap, which is exactly the span the user had no word about.

l0ng-aiandl0ng-ai 741c863c2c fix(windows): make the install directory actually replaceable before updating (#403)
* fix(windows): make the install directory actually replaceable before updating

The updater stopped the daemon and started the Inno installer the moment
the daemon's endpoint disappeared — but the endpoint going away is not
the same event as the images being released. The ConPTY hosts
(OpenConsole.exe) are the daemon's children, not the shells', so the
per-pane kill never reached them, and the daemon's exit(0) skipped every
destructor that would have closed them; they kept the installed
OpenConsole.exe open for seconds after --stop-daemon returned. Silent
Setup then hit the lock, took the suppressed dialog's default (Abort),
and the updater's recovery relaunched the old build — "updated,
restarted, still the old version". A daemon that died without cleaning
up made it permanent: its orphaned hosts survive indefinitely, which is
the DeleteFile-code-5 users hit even after "closing everything".

Reproduced both shapes in isolation before fixing: with a pane open,
--stop-daemon returned ~1s in while OpenConsole.exe stayed locked for
another ~1.4s; after taskkill on the daemon, the orphaned host held the
lock forever.

The shutdown now finishes what it starts, at every layer that can be
the last one standing:

  * The daemon reaps its remaining descendants and waits for them
    before exiting, while the endpoint — the signal stop() watches —
    is still up.
  * stop() reads the pidfile before asking, and waits for that process
    to actually exit after the endpoint goes, not just stop listening.
  * The recorded-daemon reap waits for the images to be released
    instead of returning on the async TerminateProcess.
  * stop_for_update(dir) — reached via --stop-daemon
    --update-install-dir, which PrepareToInstall and the portable
    updater now pass — also terminates anything still running from the
    installation directory (the orphan case no pidfile can name) and
    only returns once the .exe/.dll images there open for writing,
    naming the holdouts in the error if they never do.
  * The updater runs that clearing itself before invoking Setup, so a
    directory that cannot be cleared fails with a cause in update.log
    and relaunches the previous build, instead of Inno's bare
    "DeleteFile failed; code 5".

The update dialog on Windows also told a macOS truth — "the background
service keeps running, so whatever is open in your panes survives".
Windows cannot replace a running daemon's image, so its install path
stops the service; the dialog now says so.

* fix(windows): tighten the install-dir clearing per review

- An image that fails to canonicalize stays in the lock check instead of
  being silently skipped; only a positive match against the caller's own
  running image is excluded.
- reap_recorded_daemon shares one deadline across the whole tree via a
  new winproc::terminate_and_wait_all, which stop_for_update and
  reap_descendants_of now use too — one implementation of "terminate,
  then wait, bounded overall" instead of three.
- [UninstallRun] passes --update-install-dir "{app}" like
  PrepareToInstall, so uninstalling after a daemon crash gets the same
  orphaned-ConPTY-host cleanup as upgrading.

* fix(update): close three gaps the update audit found

- macOS updater: wait for the parent by watching getppid() reparent to
  launchd instead of polling kill(pid, 0), which a recycled pid could
  satisfy forever. The kill loop remains only for a hand-run updater.
- Windows: a new update guard (config-dir update.lock, held by the
  updater from daemon stop to relaunch) makes ensure_running refuse to
  spawn a daemon mid-install, so a tty7 CLI call or manual launch can no
  longer relock the images the installer is replacing. Stale guards —
  dead writer or past the TTL — are shed on sight.
- Windows portable: the update backup now carries an incomplete marker
  from before the first file moves until the replacement lands. At
  launch the app reports a backup still carrying it as an interrupted
  update (the installation may mix two versions; the old files are
  preserved), and silently removes marker-less backups a finished
  update failed to delete past an antivirus hold.

* fix(update): verify the guard's writer by start time, and guard manual Setup runs

Review round three, both findings and all three minors:

- The guard no longer expires a live, verified holder: a pid is believed
  to be the writer only if the process behind it started before the
  guard was written (winproc::creation_time via GetProcessTimes), which
  is what tells a genuine holder from a recycled pid. The TTL now bounds
  only the unverifiable case, so an install slowed past ten minutes by
  an antivirus sweep keeps its protection.
- Manual Setup runs get the guard too: the --stop-daemon
  --update-install-dir helper holds it in its parent's name — the Setup
  or uninstaller that keeps replacing files after the helper returns —
  and it goes stale when that parent exits. ensure_running gained five
  seconds of patience so the post-install "Launch tty7" click, racing
  Setup's own exit, gets its daemon instead of an error.
- processes_running_from also matches images against the canonicalized
  install-dir spelling (junction, subst, 8.3 given form).
- reconcile_portable_backups reports every interrupted backup, not the
  first.
- The unix signal-and-wait loop now reuses wait_for_recorded_exit.

l0ng-aiandl0ng-ai 3ae340408b fix(windows): bundle Microsoft's ConPTY so panes can answer color queries (#360)
* fix(windows): bundle Microsoft's ConPTY so panes can answer color queries

The in-box conhost swallows a pane process's OSC 11 background query: it
never reaches tty7's emulator and no reply is ever written back, so
applications that choose a light or dark UI from the terminal background
render a dark UI under a light theme.

tty7 already answers OSC 10/11/12 from the live theme, so nothing was
missing but a pseudoconsole that forwards the question. Microsoft ships one
as a redistributable, and portable-pty already prefers a sideloaded
conpty.dll over kernel32's, so this is packaging rather than code: the pair
goes beside tty7-app.exe, where the DLL search path finds it.

Measured on Windows 11 26200, same binary, only the pair added beside it:

  in-box conhost: the terminal side never sees the query; the client times
                  out with no reply
  bundled ConPTY: the terminal side sees ESC]11;?BEL and a real pane reads
                  back rgb:efef/f1f1/f5f5 under catppuccin_latte, which is
                  the preset's exact background

The two files are one supported unit, so the release verifier fails a
package that carries only one, a mismatched pair, or the MIT notice-less
DLL. They also join PORTABLE_MANAGED_ROOTS, without which the updater would
reject every portable archive that contains them; they are deliberately not
required by verify_portable_payload, since tty7 runs without them and a
packaging slip should fail the release rather than a user's update.

build.rs stages the pair beside cargo's output so a development build does
not quietly run on the in-box host, and the daemon logs which pseudoconsole
it got.

Closes #345

* fix(windows): restage the bundled ConPTY when it goes missing

Watching only the vendored sources meant a staged copy that left the target
directory stayed gone: the build script was cached, so it never ran again to
put it back, and the build silently fell back to the in-box conhost. Cargo
treats a rerun-if-changed path that does not exist as changed, so naming the
destinations makes the staging self-healing.

Found by deleting target/debug/conpty.dll and watching the next build not
bring it back.

* feat(updater): support online updates for windows portable zip builds

f

* feat(updater): support online updates for nightly build

* fix(updater): strengthen post-download update verification

* feat(updater): support explicit stable and nightly channel switching

* fix(i18n): localize update settings ui

* fix(settings): prevent slider value labels from wrapping

* feat(updater): drop the nightly channel, refuse all-users Windows installs

Follow-up to the Windows updater work on this branch, applying maintainer
review.

Nightly is a build channel, not an update channel. The updater consults
`/releases/latest` again and nothing else, so it behaves on Windows exactly
as it already does on macOS: a Nightly build is offered the stable release
that supersedes it and graduates out of the prerelease, and no rolling
prerelease can become a source of code that gets executed on a user's
machine. Removed with it: the `UpdateChannel` enum and its version-string
inference, the `tags/nightly` query, the cross-channel version-ordering
bypass, the Settings → About channel row, the rolling-tag
`update-manifest.json` and the i18n keys that only served them.
`parse_version` and `is_update_available` are byte-identical to main again.

Nightly builds are untouched, and still carry tty7-updater plus the macOS
update archive — a Nightly user needs a working helper to reach the stable
release that replaces their build.

An all-users Windows installation is no longer updated in place. Running the
release Setup silently as the signed-in user cannot replace
`C:\Program Files\tty7`: Inno resolves `{autopf}` to `%LocalAppData%\Programs`
and installs a second copy beside the real one, or re-launches itself
elevated and puts a bare UAC prompt for an unsigned executable in `%TEMP%` in
front of a user whose GUI just vanished. tty7 declines both and points at the
release page. Detection reads Inno's own `HKLM` state for the frozen AppId and
independently probes whether the directory accepts writes, so a relocated or
pruned installation is caught too; the decision is a pure function with unit
tests, and it is re-checked before the download as well as during it.

Release and Nightly now verify the Windows packages they just built, mirroring
the macOS update-archive step: the install marker, tty7-updater.exe, the ZIP
layout the updater will accept and the PE versions it will demand. Every fact
the updater checks on the user's machine after downloading is checked here
instead, so a packaging mistake fails the build.
