* feat(auth): authenticate daemon clients through hello
Give local CLI and desktop clients a per-run credential while remote clients send the host password inside the protocol. Keep relay passwordless admission for this mobile release so existing saved hosts keep working until the follow-up enforcement release.
Move password recovery for saved hosts into host settings and keep pairing credentials in the add flow. Include isolated web QA evidence for both flows.
* fix(auth): preserve Hub bootstrap and local credential expectations
Hub-owned sockets already carry admission; keep their hello handling synchronous through session bootstrap while resolving credentials asynchronously for ordinary sockets. Keep the resolver out of lightweight configuration imports.
Update CLI expectations for same-home credentials, let a rejected connection yield to another usable connection, and clear pairing secrets when add-flow targets change.
* fix(pairing): retain passwords across edits to the same target
Track the last valid pairing host while a URI is edited. This preserves an entered password for whitespace and partial edits but clears it when a different host becomes the target.
* test(auth): align local credential checks across platforms
Expect the CLI to authenticate through the credential in its selected home, and verify POSIX file modes only where Node exposes them.
* feat(app): move host password into a settings row with a modal
The host page rendered an always-visible password form above Name on every
host. Replace it with a Password row under a Security section below
Appearance; tapping it opens a modal with Save and, when a password is saved,
Clear. The connection-error callout keeps its guidance and gains a Set
password button that opens the same modal. Drop the unused
pairing.hostPassword body/reopen/saveError strings.
* chore: remove committed QA screenshots
QA evidence stays out of the repository; the PR body describes it in words.
* feat(app): keep the host password out of the host page
The saved password is connection data, entered only when a host is added. A
Password setting on the host page reads as the daemon's own password, so the
row, modal, and callout button are gone. A rejected host shows the daemon's
reason with guidance to remove the host and add it again with the password.
useHostMutations no longer exposes setHostPassword; relay imports still set it
inside the runtime.
* feat(app): show host connection errors in an error alert
HostConnectionError renders the existing Alert with the connection error as
its title. Auth rejections add the re-add guidance as the description; other
errors show the title only. The Overview and Connections pages share it.
* style(app): soften alert borders to half-opacity accent
* feat(app): size alerts on the button scale
Alert takes a size prop (xs/sm/md/lg, default md) whose geometry lives next to
the button's in control-geometry: one font size for title and description, the
button icon size centered on the first text line, button padding and radius,
and a one-line alert as tall as the button of the same size. Consumers pick
sm among settings rows, cards, panels, and modals, and md when the alert is
the whole page or sheet state.
* style(app): roomier, rounder alerts with a tight title block
Alert sm padding returns to the original 12/16 and every size is at least
borderRadius.xl. Title and description sit a small gap apart with no line
height override. The icon slot carries a zero-width text strut in the alert's
font so the icon centers on the first line for titled, title-only, and
description-only alerts.
* refactor(app): align the alert icon with a centered lead row
Drop the zero-width strut. The icon and the alert's first text (title, else
description) share one row centered on each other; the description and actions
sit below, indented by the icon slot width plus gap so they start at the lead
text's left edge.
* refactor(app): drop the unused Alert icon override
* fix(subscriptions): preserve older-host workflows and explicit timeline recovery
Keep established app and SDK workflows available on older daemons without emulating independent directory filters. Restore live timeline membership without choosing the consumer's history recovery policy. Preserve daemon filesystem paths separately from legacy workspace IDs.
* fix(client): keep legacy workspace replies scoped to the requested page
Give each observation a server-issued ID owned by its physical connection. Preserve snapshot-only reads and combined list-and-subscribe, source-bound replies, lifecycle cleanup and legacy wire compatibility.
Move supported protocol capabilities into client defaults and make session traffic subscription-driven. Preserve timeline readiness and reconnect recovery across SDK, CLI, and plugin consumers.
Issues are bug-only now. The feature-request template is gone, requests
opened as issues get closed automatically, and feature talk moves to
product discussions on GitHub Discussions and Discord. "Product
discussion" is the term everywhere, recorded in the glossary.
Contributing states the QA evidence bar and links out instead of
teaching; docs/qa.md carries the depth. The protocol back-compat rules
moved out of CLAUDE.md into docs/protocol-compatibility.md, since that
constraint is invisible in development where both sides always run the
same version.
CLAUDE.md gains doc-writing and voice rules to keep docs from
accumulating appended paragraphs. design.md gains an alignment section
(glyph rails) and a layout-shift rule.
