* fix(app): prevent and recover workspace layout crash loops
* fix(desktop): capture resized browser tabs without hanging
A resident guest can paint fresh pixels after resize while capturePage's
native surface-copy request remains pending. The same failed guest returns
a fresh frame through frame subscription, so waiting for resize or another
animation frame does not correct the failing copy request.
Capture one subscribed frame within the existing five-second budget and
release the subscription on completion or cancellation. Preserve temporary
frame production and its original throttling policy. Remove viewport copy
retries and E2E screenshot polling; assert the resized image dimensions.
Refs #4866. Three full real-Electron browser journeys passed under Xvfb,
including physical clicks and fresh screenshots while the window is hidden.
* test(app): choose Agent before exercising the runtime catalog
The newly merged catalog journey assumed an empty workspace opened an agent draft tab. This branch opens the New launcher, so create the agent draft tab explicitly before checking its composer and model choices.
* fix: settle closed browser captures and validate persisted layout fixtures
Destroying a guest during frame subscription left its screenshot pending until the capture deadline and blocked queued captures. Reject at destruction, remove the listener on every exit, and return browser_tab_closed. The regression proves immediate settlement and queue release.
Reuse the unchanged persisted layout schema from a UI-independent module so the recovery fixture validates storage before editing it.
* test(app): encapsulate Explorer layout setup and cleanup
Keep persisted layout schemas and corrupted-state construction inside the seedCorruptedWorkspaceLayout helper. Use the existing withWorkspace fixture for cleanup in all four Explorer journeys so test bodies follow a straight setup, action and assertion flow.
* test(app): target the selected workspace in layout recovery
The corruption helper selected the first persisted entry, so a multi-workspace journey could leave the intended workspace untouched. Resolve its exact persistence key from the requested workspace ID and fail setup when absent. The failing-first journey now preserves an earlier workspace with an agent draft tab while recovering the selected workspace.
* fix(desktop): throttle hidden browsers between screenshots
Keep Chromium background throttling enabled outside serialized captures. Temporarily enable frame production and wait for fresh paint so hidden-window screenshots remain usable without continuously animating idle guests.
* fix(desktop): share screenshot deadline across paint and capture
* test(desktop): wait for browser fixture readiness before sampling
* test(desktop): exit Electron after screenshot verification
CI completed every screenshot assertion but remained alive after app.quit. Exit the standalone test explicitly and keep its deadline active until process shutdown.
* test(desktop): clean browser profile after Electron exits
Explicit Electron exit skips quit handlers, and removing the profile before shutdown lets Chromium recreate it. The launcher owns the temporary profile and removes it after the child exits.
* test(desktop): reuse browser E2E for hidden screenshot regression
Exercise the running app and browser MCP tools within the existing browser journey. Remove the separate Electron fixtures, npm script, and CI step.
* fix(desktop): preserve browser tabs across focus changes
Electron can replace a guest WebContents when a webview is reparented, which reloads the page and can race automation against a destroyed target. Keep each browser guest on one permanent paintable surface and make user and agent resizing share one canonical viewport.
* fix(desktop): recover browser surfaces after lifecycle changes
* fix(desktop): preserve resident browser lifecycle state
* fix(desktop): seed inactive browser viewport
* fix(desktop): keep browser tabs connected across workspaces
Electron can replace a guest WebContents when a retained browser tab is reparented. Re-register each attachment and keep background actionability checks running so agent browser tools retain the tab through workspace eviction.\n\nCover the full app, daemon, Electron, and MCP path in the existing desktop CI job.
* fix(desktop): launch Electron E2E reliably on Linux
CI Electron must receive --no-sandbox before the app starts because the hosted runner cannot use Electron's bundled SUID sandbox helper. Forward explicit dev-runner arguments and fail readiness waits as soon as a child exits.
* fix(desktop): preserve active browser on repeated registration
* fix(desktop): keep browser keyboard attachment idempotent
* fix(desktop): wait for E2E bridge readiness
* fix(desktop): close E2E logs after output drains
* fix(desktop): keep browser input out of the composer
Unhandled webview keys could be redispatched into the active host window, allowing agent Enter to submit a draft prompt. Give pages first refusal for ordinary shortcuts and contain automation at the guest boundary.
* fix(desktop): tighten browser shortcut validation
* fix(desktop): respect browser shortcut ownership
* fix(desktop): retain browser keys across windows
* fix(desktop): scope browser webviews by host
* Reshape browser shortcut ownership
Use the browser webview registry as the single guest identity authority, scope browser operations to their host window, publish chord continuations only while pending, and restore focus to the originating browser after command center dismissal.
* Fix host-scoped browser shortcut follow-ups
* Fix browser keyboard review follow-ups
* Fix browser keyboard lifecycle regressions
* Fix browser shortcut review regressions
* Fix desktop browser review regressions
* Fix browser shortcut frame regressions
* Fix rebase integration regressions
* Preserve browser-native shortcut ownership
* Isolate browser shortcuts and automation by context
Delete the renderer capture prep handshake and keep screenshots on the serialized invalidate/retry path. The capture harness now defaults to the production P1 attach-off parking check.
* Add opt-in browser tools for desktop tabs
Adds the daemon opt-in, desktop tab routing, MCP tools, and real browser automation surfaces for Paseo desktop browser tabs.
* Fix browser tools CI expectations
* Address browser tools review findings
* Restrict browser file automation paths
* Fix browser upload test on Windows
* Harden browser navigation inputs
* Make browser tools create usable tabs
* Update browser MCP empty-state test
* Fail browser tab creation when registration times out
* Fix browser screenshots for agents
* Hide disabled browser tools from agents
* Address browser tools architecture review
* Replace browser tools review tests
* Wrap browser tab registration errors
* Mock Expo Router in app unit tests
* Handle invalid browser automation requests
* Return browser failure on desktop disconnect
* Update browser disconnect websocket test
* Relax browser timeout polling test
* Handle invalid browser responses
* Return browser failure when send fails
* Remove local diagnostics and fixture paths
* Fix dev service home fallback
* Use worktree home for dev services
* Use managed daemon in desktop dev
* fix(browser): keep agent tabs addressable
Track agent-active browser targets separately from human-focused tabs and keep resident webviews alive for automation. Browser tool visibility now comes from registration while the broker reports disabled execution.
* refactor(browser): register tools through catalog
Move browser tool registration onto the shared Paseo tool catalog so the MCP server remains only the transport adapter.
* fix(settings): translate browser tools host error
