The install flow briefly flashed an "Update installed / Restart to use
the new version" callout between clicking Install & restart and the
actual app quit. The button implies action; the restart is already in
flight.
Run quitAndInstall inline (no 1.5s setTimeout) so the IPC sequences
download → install → daemon stop → app quit before returning. Drop the
"installed" rendering branch from the callout so the success path goes
straight from "Installing..." to the window unmounting.
* Replace skills auto-sync with explicit install/update/uninstall
Skills no longer sync silently on every desktop launch. Settings now
shows Install (fresh), Update (with a confirm dialog listing per-skill
add/update/delete ops), or Uninstall depending on what's on disk.
A manifest at ~/.agents/skills/.paseo-manifest.json tracks Paseo-owned
skills so uninstall removes only what we wrote, never user content.
Existing users migrate transparently — first read synthesises a
manifest from on-disk hashes, so an unchanged install flips silently
to up-to-date.
Also restructures the integrations layer: skills/ and cli-install/
each own their files behind a designed index.ts. The shared
integrations-manager.ts is gone.
* Rewrite skills install flow with disk-truth model
Drops the manifest sidecar, migration logic, and the
agentsDirHasSkillContent heuristic that misread user-authored skills
as Paseo content. Replaces them with a hardcoded PASEO_SKILL_NAMES
list (current bundle + paseo-chat for retired-skill cleanup); the
disk is the source of truth for what's installed.
Renames the SkillsState "fresh" → "not-installed" everywhere
(server, IPC parser, hook test mocks). Install and update share an
applySkills body. Errors propagate instead of being swallowed.
Fixes the case where Uninstall left state at "drift" because the
user had personal skills under ~/.agents/skills/.
* Stop symlinking claude skills, write real files
If the user has ~/.claude/skills symlinked to ~/.agents/skills, the
per-skill symlink path resolved through the parent symlink and fs.rm'd
the agents-side files we'd just written. Mirror real files to claude
the same way as codex; agents stays the canonical source-of-truth dir.
* Make Uninstall button visible (outline, not ghost)
* Fix desktop CLI passthrough tty handling
* Fix desktop daemon manager test drift
* Update daemon stop test after main merge
* test(cli): isolate npx cache per CLI test
* Use tree-kill for daemon shutdown
* fix: update lockfile signatures and Nix hash
* Use tree-kill for daemon shutdown

Cmd+R was scoped through a stale Electron-side active browser value. Opening or focusing a browser pane set activeBrowserPaneId, but switching to an agent tab only updated workspace layout state. Electron still remembered the old browser and the app menu reloaded that hidden/previous browser instead of the app.
Make workspace layout the authority. Derive the active browser from focusedPaneId plus the focused pane's focusedTabId, and sync browserId|null to Electron from one WorkspaceScreen effect. BrowserPane no longer marks itself active from URL-bar or webview focus handlers, so call sites do not have to remember to clear Electron state when focus moves to an agent, terminal, or another pane.
Electron now treats the synced value as the workspace-active browser, not an independently observed focus source. Menu reload uses that workspace-derived browser when present; otherwise it reloads the app window. Direct Cmd+R events that originate inside a browser guest still reload that guest through the guest before-input-event path.
Browser webviews now own their guest context menu in the main process. Add copy/paste/select-all and a development Inspect Element action for attached browser guest WebContents.
DevTools opening is routed through the main process by browserId. Docked-right DevTools did not become visible for browser guest contents in practice, even though inspect mode activated, so the final behavior opens detached DevTools for both the toolbar button and Inspect Element. The renderer logs bridge/result failures, and main logs registration/open/inspect outcomes for future debugging.
Regression coverage is at the workspace layout derivation layer: focused browser id follows the focused pane's active browser tab and becomes null when the active tab is not a browser. Verified with targeted layout-store tests, navigation E2E, settings E2E, npm run typecheck, and npm run lint.
Add oxlint-tsgolint and configure typescript/no-unnecessary-type-assertion
to flag redundant `!` and `as Foo` casts. Type-aware mode is left off by
default to keep `npm run lint` fast; the rule sits configured for when we
turn type-aware on intentionally. Auto-fix removed ~283 redundant casts;
two manual touch-ups: a real tsgolint false positive in split-container.tsx
and a stale ChildProcess import after a double-cast collapsed.
Adds a Service URLs setting (ask / in-Paseo / external browser) that
controls where URLs from running scripts open on desktop. First click
prompts with a "don't ask again" checkbox; in-Paseo opens a workspace
browser tab. Closing a browser tab now clears its session partition.
- Refresh icon: use single-arrow RotateCw instead of two-arrow RefreshCw
- URL bar selects all text on focus
- Cmd+R now reloads the active browser pane (tracked via IPC) when
the URL bar has focus, instead of reloading the Electron window
- Forward Paseo shortcut keys (b, e, w, t, k, /, \, comma, digits,
enter, arrows) from the embedded webview to the main window so
sidebar/tab/etc. shortcuts still fire when focus is inside the
loaded page
* feat: add browser pane element picker
Port the browser pane from PR #198 and route picked elements through workspace attachments so the context follows every agent composer in a workspace.

Two breakages surfaced when CI started running desktop tests:
- Root vitest.config.ts replaced default exclude with `["**/.claude/**"]`,
losing `**/node_modules/**`. Desktop has no local vitest config, so
vitest scanned into `node_modules/zod/src/v4/classic/tests/*.test.ts`
and failed on missing peers (`@web-std/file`, `recheck`). Spread
`configDefaults.exclude` so node_modules stays excluded.
- window-manager dark titlebar color changed from #18181c to #181B1A in
963c7926 (white-flash fix) but the test was not updated. Update the
expected color to match the new intended behavior.
Skills installed via Paseo desktop never updated after first run, so
users were stuck on already-fixed skill content. On every launch, if
the paseo base skill is present in `~/.agents/skills/`, sync each
bundled skill (incl. `references/`) into agents, claude (via symlink/
junction), and codex — overwriting only files whose content differs.
Files on disk that are not in the bundle are left alone; deprecation
goes through tombstones (e.g. `paseo-orchestrate` redirects to
`paseo-epic`).
Also refreshes the bundled skill set: drops `paseo-chat`, adds
`paseo-advisor` and `paseo-epic`, and turns `paseo-orchestrate` into
a tombstone redirecting to `paseo-epic`.
Adds a desktop test job to CI on Ubuntu and Windows so the
junction/symlink path is exercised on both platforms.
Replace base64-in-JSON file transfers with binary WebSocket frames to
unblock the JS thread when assistant markdown messages contain images.
Receive cost (JSON.parse over multi-MB base64) and persist cost (base64
re-encode to disk) both removed.
- Split daemon-client `exploreFileSystem` into `listDirectory` + `readFile`;
`readFile` returns `{ bytes, mime, size, modifiedAt }`. Encoding stays
private to the seam.
- New `packages/server/src/shared/binary-frames/` module hosts terminal
frames (moved from `terminal-stream-protocol.ts`) and new file-transfer
opcodes (`FileBegin` / `FileChunk` / `FileEnd`) with request-id correlation.
- Add optional `acceptBinary` to `FileExplorerRequestSchema`. New daemons
emit binary frames when set; legacy JSON path remains for old clients.
Compat fallback lives only inside `readFile`.
- New `persistAttachmentFromBytes` writes bytes directly: native via
`expo-file-system` `File.write(Uint8Array)`, web via Blob -> IndexedDB,
desktop via new `write_attachment_bytes` IPC. `persistAttachmentFromBase64`
removed.
Cross-arch packaging (e.g. arm64 build on an x64 Windows runner)
can't smoke the unpacked binary because the host can't spawn it.
Skip the smoke instead of crashing with spawn UNKNOWN.
Multi-arch Windows build in one electron-builder pass, with the website
self-healing across the rename. Asset names go from
`Paseo-Setup-${version}.exe` to `Paseo-Setup-${version}-{x64,arm64}.exe`.
The website now reads the actual installer filename off the latest
GitHub release, so legacy single-arch releases keep rendering a single
"Download" pill while dual-arch releases promote to "Intel / x64" +
"ARM64" automatically. No homepage code change needed when ARM ships.
The Linux wrapper renamed the executable to Paseo.bin and exec'd it with
--no-sandbox, which surfaced as Paseo.bin in the dock and process list on
Ubuntu. Drop the wrapper and the chrome-sandbox deletion entirely. .deb/.rpm
now ship chrome-sandbox SUID 4755 (electron-builder 26 default postinst,
matches VS Code) and run Paseo directly with the Chromium sandbox on.
AppImage cannot carry SUID, so --no-sandbox is now injected at runtime only
when process.env.APPIMAGE is set.
Fixes#602
Re #381
Bucket divisor now produces [0, 1) so the single UUID hashing to
0xFFFFFFFF is no longer permanently excluded by the strict-less-than
admit condition.
Mirrors the post-stamp manifest validation step from desktop-rollout.yml
into desktop-release.yml's finalize-rollout job so a stamp-rollout.mjs
regression can't silently ship a broken manifest.
Adds boundary tests: bucket=0 stays blocked at exact release time,
max-bucket admits at and past rollout end, unparseable releaseDate
admits, bucketFromStagingUserId is strictly < 1 at the upper bound.
Linear ramp from 0% at publish to 100% at releaseDate + rolloutHours
(default 24h, configurable per release). Beta channel and rolloutHours=0
short-circuit to admit everyone. Per-machine bucket derives from a
persistent UUID at <userData>/.updaterId and feeds electron-updater's
isUserWithinRollout hook.
Adds desktop-rollout.yml workflow for in-place rolloutHours edits on
already-published releases (hotfix to 0 or extend the ramp), serialized
against finalize-rollout in desktop-release.yml via a shared concurrency
group keyed on the tag. Replaces the hand-rolled mac manifest merge
with a js-yaml round-trip that preserves unknown fields.
The before-quit handler preventDefaulted on every quit and re-fired
app.quit() from .finally. That re-entered Electron through the
window-all-closed gate, which on macOS is a no-op listener that
vetoes the quit — so the window closed but the process stayed up.
Use app.exit(0) to bypass the close → window-all-closed → will-quit
chain entirely. Also drop the daemon-stop NSAlert: with no parent
window it ran app-modal and stalled the child-process pipes for
'paseo daemon stop', so daemon shutdown waited on the user dismissing
the dialog. Replace it with an in-app overlay rendered in the renderer
via a paseo:event:quitting IPC event. Stop opening DevTools on dev boot.
The CLI module was dropped from desktop deps in ba9ed8b9 (Knip
false-positive — runtime resolves it via createRequire, which static
analysis can't see). electron-builder then shipped 0.1.63-beta.{1,2}
without app.asar/node_modules/@getpaseo/cli, breaking every daemon
status check from the desktop wrapper. Splash startup never saw the
daemon as ready and retries collided with the live pid lock.
Re-declare the dep, and switch private-workspace internal @getpaseo/*
deps to "*" so npm always resolves the workspace sibling and never
falls back to the registry. Publishable workspaces (cli, server) keep
the root-version pin so their npm tarballs reference real ranges.
Update sync-workspace-versions.mjs to preserve that shape on release
bumps, and add a packaging assertion in desktop-packaging.test.ts that
fails fast if a runtime-required workspace dep is removed again.
Replace the async daemon status resolution during quit with a synchronous
PID file check, avoiding races when the event loop is shutting down. Show
a blocking dialog so users know the daemon is stopping. Add --kill-timeout
to the CLI stop command for the desktop app to control SIGKILL wait time.
Move daemon management and release channel settings out of the renderer's
AsyncStorage and into a desktop-owned settings store persisted by the main
process. Adds a "Keep daemon running after quit" option, a daemon lifecycle
section in settings, and a one-time migration of legacy renderer-owned
desktop settings.
