chore(release): cut 0.1.94

* feat(app): add pull request panel context actions

Attach pull request comments, reviews, and failed check details to chat context. The PR panel now lives in its own module so the activity, query, and context policies have one home.

* fix(server): mark capped check details as truncated

* fix(app): preserve concurrent PR panel attachments

* fix(server): preserve annotation truncation state

* fix(app): keep matrix check attachments distinct

* fix(app): streamline pull request context attachments

* fix(app): simplify pull request feedback rendering

* feat(app): group pull request review threads

* fix(app): tidy pull request panel boundaries

* fix: use worktree cwd for dev services

* fix(app): keep git query keys UI-free

* feat(app): collapse resolved comments and add chat actions to headers

* fix: address PR feedback and Playwright flakes

* fix(app): hide check chat action without attachment scope

* fix(server): dedupe inline review timeline comments

+description: Cut a beta release of Paseo. Use when the user says "release beta", "cut a beta", "ship a beta", "beta release", or "/release-beta". Betas are silent release candidates — no changelog, no website move, npm only on the beta dist-tag.

+
+Read `docs/release.md` in the Paseo repo and follow the **Beta flow** section end-to-end. Run the **Beta release** completion checklist at the bottom of that doc.
+
+Key rules the doc enforces — betas don't touch `CHANGELOG.md`, don't draft release notes, and publish npm only with the explicit `beta` dist-tag.

+Read `docs/release.md` in the Paseo repo and follow the **Standard release (patch)** flow if cutting fresh, or the **Beta flow** promotion step if promoting an existing beta. Run the **Stable release (or promotion)** completion checklist at the bottom of that doc.
+
+The doc covers the changelog (required for stable), the pre-release sanity check (required for stable), and the post-release babysit pattern. Don't skip steps.

+
+        **A note on AI-assisted reports.** Using an agent to gather information (logs, repro steps, version checks) is fine and useful. Using an agent to *diagnose* the bug and then submitting only that diagnosis is not. Agents routinely correlate adjacent log lines as cause-and-effect when they aren't related, and once a report is filtered through an AI summary I lose the signal I need to actually fix the bug. Paste the raw inputs.

+- [ ] Bug fix
+- [ ] New feature (with prior issue + design alignment)
+- [ ] Refactor / code improvement
+- [ ] Docs

+This is the section I read most carefully. I need to see that *you* tested this, not that the diff looks plausible.

+- For UI changes: a screenshot or short video on every affected platform (mobile, web, desktop). UI claims without visual proof are not enough.

+- [ ] One focused change. Unrelated cleanups split out.
+- [ ] `npm run typecheck` passes
+- [ ] `npm run lint` passes
+- [ ] `npm run format` ran (Biome)

+`docs/` is the source of truth for system-level and process-level knowledge. **"The docs", "check the docs", or "check the X docs" always mean this directory — not the web.** Look here before fetching anything online; the docs capture gotchas and conventions you cannot derive from the code or external sources.
+
+At the start of non-trivial work, list `docs/` and skim anything relevant to the task. When you learn something meta worth preserving — a gotcha, a convention, a workflow, a piece of system context that will outlive the current task — update an existing doc or propose a new one. Code-level facts belong in inline comments next to the code; system, process, and gotcha-level facts belong in `docs/`.

+npm run dev:desktop                  # Start Electron desktop dev
 npm run cli -- ls -a -g              # List all agents
 npm run cli -- daemon status         # Check daemon status
 npm run typecheck                    # Always run after changes
+npm run lint                         # Always run after changes
+npm run format                       # Auto-format with Biome
+npm run format:check                 # Check formatting without writing

+Repo dev commands use checkout-local state by default. In this checkout, `PASEO_HOME` resolves to `.dev/paseo-home`, and `npm run cli -- ...` targets that same dev home automatically. The packaged desktop app and production-style daemon keep using `~/.paseo` on port `6767`.

 ## Critical rules
 
 - **NEVER restart the main Paseo daemon on port 6767 without permission** — it manages all running agents. If you're an agent, restarting it kills your own process.
 - **NEVER assume a timeout means the service needs restarting** — timeouts can be transient.
 - **NEVER add auth checks to tests** — agent providers handle their own auth.
-- **Always run typecheck after every change.**
+- **NEVER run the full test suite locally.** The test suites are heavy and will freeze the machine, especially if multiple agents run them in parallel. Rules:
+  - Run only the specific test file you changed: `npx vitest run <file> --bail=1`
+  - Never run `npm run test` for an entire workspace unless explicitly asked.
+  - If you must run a broad suite, pipe output to a file and read it afterward: `npx vitest run <file> --bail=1 > /tmp/test-output.txt 2>&1` then read the file.
+  - Never re-run a test suite that another agent already ran and reported green — trust the result.
+  - For full suite verification, push to CI and check GitHub Actions instead.
+- **Always run typecheck and lint after every change.**
+- **Build workspace packages before diagnosing cross-package type errors.** This repo consumes generated declarations across workspaces. If typecheck fails in a package that depends on another workspace, rebuild the owning stack first so `dist` declarations are current:
+  - `npm run build:client` — rebuild protocol and client declarations.
+  - `npm run build:server` — rebuild highlight, relay, protocol, client, server, and CLI when server/CLI types may be stale.
+  - Do not patch inferred callback parameters or add local duplicate types just to silence stale declaration errors.
+- **Run `npm run format` before committing.** This repo uses Biome for formatting. Do not manually fix formatting — let the formatter handle it.
+- **Always use npm scripts for linting and formatting.** Do not run tools directly with `npx eslint`, `npx oxfmt`, `npx oxlint`, or package-local binaries. For targeted checks, pass file paths through the npm script:
+  - `npm run lint -- packages/app/src/components/message.tsx`
+  - `npm run format:files -- CLAUDE.md packages/app/src/components/message.tsx`
+- **The protocol stays backward-compatible. Features don't have to.** Two separate contracts:
+  - **Protocol contract (always):** schema changes must not break parsing in either direction. An old client must still parse messages from a new daemon; a new daemon must still parse messages from an old client.
+    - New fields: `.optional()` with a sensible default or `.transform()` fallback.
+    - Never flip optional → required, remove fields, or narrow types (`string` → `enum`, `nullable` → non-null).
+    - Removed fields stay accepted (we stop sending them, not stop reading them).
+    - Test with: "does a 6-month-old client still parse this?" and "does a 6-month-old daemon still send something this client accepts?"
+  - **Feature contract (per-feature):** a new feature may require a new daemon capability. The client detects whether the capability is present and either runs the feature or shows "Update the host to use this." That's it.
+    - **No fallback paths.** Don't write a degraded version of a new feature that runs on old daemons. Don't fan out across legacy RPCs to simulate a missing capability. The user upgrades or doesn't get the feature.
+    - **No defensive branches scattered through the feature.** Capability detection happens in one place; downstream code reads a clean shape.
+    - **Capability flags live in `server_info.features.*`** with a single `// COMPAT(featureName): added in v0.1.X, drop the gate when floor >= v0.1.X` comment marking the cleanup site.
+    - Existing functionality keeps working across versions — that's the protocol contract doing its job. New-feature degradation is not the goal.
+    - **New RPCs use dotted namespaces with direction suffixes.** Follow [docs/rpc-namespacing.md](docs/rpc-namespacing.md): `domain.provider.operation.request` pairs with `domain.provider.operation.response`. Existing flat RPC names will migrate over time; don't add new ones.
+
+- **All back-compat shims are tagged and dated for cleanup.** Every shim that exists for old-client/old-daemon support carries a `COMPAT(name)` comment with the version it was added in and a target removal date (typically 6 months out). One grep — `rg "COMPAT\("` — should produce the full list of cleanup work. Don't bury back-compat in untagged `??`-fallbacks or optional-chain tunnels — that's how it stops being deletable.
+
+## Platform gating
+
+The app runs on iOS, Android, web (browser), and web (Electron desktop). Code is cross-platform by default. Gate only when you must. Import gates from `@/constants/platform`.
+
+### The four gates
+
+| Gate                       | Type      | When to use                                                                                                                 |
+| -------------------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `isWeb`                    | constant  | DOM APIs — `document`, `window`, `<div>`, `addEventListener`, `ResizeObserver`. This is the **exception**, not the default. |
+| `isNative`                 | constant  | Native-only APIs — Haptics, `StatusBar.currentHeight`, push tokens, camera/scanner, `expo-av`.                              |
+| `getIsElectron()`          | cached fn | Desktop wrapper features — file dialogs, titlebar drag region, daemon management, app updates, dock badges.                 |
+| `useIsCompactFormFactor()` | hook      | Layout decisions — sidebar overlay vs pinned, modal vs full screen, single-panel vs split. From `@/constants/layout`.       |
+
+### Decision matrix
+
+| I need to...                                                   | Use                                                                       |
+| -------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| Access DOM (`document`, `window`, `<div>`, `addEventListener`) | `if (isWeb)`                                                              |
+| Use a native-only API (Haptics, push tokens, camera)           | `if (isNative)`                                                           |
+| Use an Electron bridge (file dialog, titlebar, updates)        | `if (getIsElectron())`                                                    |
+| Switch layout between phone and tablet/desktop                 | `useIsCompactFormFactor()`                                                |
+| Show something on hover, always-visible on native              | `isHovered \|\| isNative \|\| isCompact` (hover only works on web)        |
+| Gate to iOS or Android specifically                            | `Platform.OS === "ios"` / `Platform.OS === "android"` (rare, keep inline) |
+
+### Rules
+
+- **Default is cross-platform.** Don't gate unless you have a specific reason.
+- **Prefer Metro file extensions over `if` statements.** When a module has fundamentally different implementations per platform, use `.web.ts` / `.native.ts` file extensions instead of runtime `if (isWeb)` branches. Metro resolves the correct file at build time — the unused platform code is never bundled. Reserve `if (isWeb)` for small, inline checks (a single line or a few props). If you find yourself writing a large `if (isWeb) { ... } else { ... }` block, split into separate files instead.
+  ```
+  hooks/
+    use-audio-recorder.web.ts    ← uses Web Audio API
+    use-audio-recorder.native.ts ← uses expo-audio
+  ```
+  Import as `@/hooks/use-audio-recorder` — Metro picks the right file automatically.
+- **Use `.electron.ts` / `.electron.tsx` for Electron-only web modules.** Electron is still the Metro `web` platform, but desktop dev/build sets `PASEO_WEB_PLATFORM=electron`, so Metro first looks for `.electron.*` files and falls back to normal `.web.*` files. Use this when the implementation depends on Electron-only behavior such as `webviewTag`, desktop preload APIs, or the Electron bridge. Keep plain browser web in `.web.*`, and keep native fallbacks in the base file or `.native.*`.
+  ```
+  components/
+    browser-pane.electron.tsx ← Electron <webview> implementation
+    browser-pane.web.tsx      ← plain web fallback
+    browser-pane.tsx          ← native fallback
+  ```
+  Import as `@/components/browser-pane` — Electron desktop gets the `.electron.tsx` file, browser web gets `.web.tsx`, and native gets the native/base implementation.
+- **NEVER use raw DOM APIs without `isWeb` guard.** DOM APIs crash native. Casting a RN ref to `HTMLElement` is a red flag — ensure the block is web-only.
+- **NEVER use `onPointerEnter`/`onPointerLeave`.** They don't fire on native iOS.
+- **Hover only works on web.** React Native's `onHoverIn`/`onHoverOut` on `Pressable` does NOT fire on native iOS/iPad — the underlying W3C pointer events are behind disabled experimental flags. For hover-to-show UI (kebab menus, action buttons), use `isHovered || isNative || isCompact` so the controls are always visible on native and hover-to-show on web.
+- **Don't use Platform.OS as a proxy for layout capabilities.** Use breakpoints for layout decisions, not platform checks.
+- **Import `isWeb`/`isNative` from `@/constants/platform`.** Never write `const isWeb = Platform.OS === "web"` locally.

+# Contributing to Paseo
+
+Paseo is an opinionated product maintained by one person.
+
+I read every issue and PR myself, and I am selective about what contributions I accept.
+
+Good ideas still need to fit the shape of the product: a PR can be technically correct and still not belong in Paseo.
+
+Core product, design, architecture, and workflow changes are not accepted.
+
+Follow these rules if you want your PR to be merged:
+
+- Keep it to one focused change
+- Link to an issue
+- Explain the problem you're solving
+- Include repro steps if it's a bug
+- Include QA/testing evidence
+- UI changes need screenshots or video for every affected platform: iOS, Android, desktop, and web
+- If you only tested one platform, say that clearly
+
+Your PR will be closed if you do any of these:
+
+- Bundle unrelated changes
+- Fail basic checks like typecheck, formatting or linting
+- Make product, design, or architecture changes without prior discussion
+- Submit no evidence of testing
+- Skip the linked issue
+- Clearly fully AI-generated PR
+
+## AI assistance
+
+AI in the loop is fine. The bar is whether _you_ tested the change and can explain why it works. A confident wall of AI prose with no evidence of testing is a red flag and will get closed.

+在你自己的机器上并行运行 agents。无论在手机上还是桌前，都能推进交付。
+
+- **自托管：** Agents 在你的机器上运行，使用完整的本地开发环境、工具、配置和技能。
+- **多提供商：** 通过同一个界面使用 Claude Code、Codex、Copilot、OpenCode 和 Pi。为每个任务选择合适的模型。
+- **语音控制：** 在语音模式下口述任务或讨论问题。需要免手操作时很方便。
+- **跨设备：** 支持 iOS、Android、桌面端、Web 和 CLI。在桌前开始工作，用手机查看进度，也可以从终端脚本化操作。
+- **隐私优先：** Paseo 没有遥测、追踪，也不会强制登录。
+
+## 快速开始
+
+Paseo 会运行一个名为 daemon 的本地服务，用来管理你的 coding agents。桌面 app、移动 app、Web app 和 CLI 等客户端都会连接到它。
+
+### 前置条件
+
+你至少需要安装一个 agent CLI，并用你的凭据完成配置：
+
+- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code)
+- [Codex](https://github.com/openai/codex)
+- [GitHub Copilot](https://github.com/features/copilot/cli/)
+- [OpenCode](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode)
+- [Pi](https://pi.dev)
+
+### 桌面 app（推荐）
+
+从 [paseo.sh/download](https://paseo.sh/download) 或 [GitHub releases 页面](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/releases)下载。打开 app 后 daemon 会自动启动，不需要再安装其他东西。
+
+如果要从手机连接，在 Settings 中扫描显示的二维码。
+
+### CLI / 无头模式
+
+安装 CLI 并启动 Paseo：
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @getpaseo/cli
+paseo
+```
+
+终端中会显示一个二维码。你可以从任意客户端连接。这个方式适合服务器和远程机器。
+
+完整安装和配置见：
+
+- [文档](https://paseo.sh/docs)
+- [配置参考](https://paseo.sh/docs/configuration)
+
+## CLI
+
+你能在 app 中完成的事情，也都可以在终端中完成。
+
+```bash
+paseo run --provider claude/opus-4.6 "implement user authentication"
+paseo run --provider codex/gpt-5.4 --worktree feature-x "implement feature X"
+
+paseo ls                           # 列出正在运行的 agents
+paseo attach abc123                # 实时流式查看输出
+paseo send abc123 "also add tests" # 发送后续任务
+
+# 在远程 daemon 上运行
+paseo --host workstation.local:6767 run "run the full test suite"
+```
+
+更多内容见[完整 CLI 参考](https://paseo.sh/docs/cli)。
+
+## Skills
+
+Skills 会教你的 agent 使用 Paseo 来编排其他 agents。
+
+```bash
+npx skills add getpaseo/paseo
+```
+
+然后在任意 agent 对话中使用：
+
+- `/paseo-handoff` — 在 agents 之间交接工作。我会用它先和 Claude 规划，再交给 Codex 实现。
+- `/paseo-loop` — 让 agent 按明确验收标准循环工作（也叫 Ralph loops），也可以加 verifier。
+- `/paseo-advisor` — 启动单个 agent 作为 advisor，提供第二意见，但不把工作委托出去。
+- `/paseo-committee` — 组建两个风格互补的 agents，让它们后退一步做根因分析并产出计划。
+
+## 开发
+
+Monorepo 包结构速览：
+
+- `packages/server`：Paseo daemon（agent 进程编排、WebSocket API、MCP server）
+- `packages/app`：Expo 客户端（iOS、Android、Web）
+- `packages/cli`：用于 daemon 和 agent 工作流的 `paseo` CLI
+- `packages/desktop`：Electron 桌面 app
+- `packages/relay`：用于远程连接的 relay 包

+
+```bash
+PASEO_RELAY_ENDPOINT=127.0.0.1:8080 \
+PASEO_RELAY_PUBLIC_ENDPOINT=relay.example.com:443 \
+PASEO_RELAY_USE_TLS=true \

+  "daemon": {
+    "relay": {
+      "enabled": true,
+      "endpoint": "127.0.0.1:8080",
+      "publicEndpoint": "relay.example.com:443",
+      "useTls": true
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+最小 nginx WebSocket 代理配置：
+
+```nginx
+server {
+  listen 443 ssl;
+  server_name relay.example.com;
+
+  ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/relay.example.com/fullchain.pem;

 ### How it works
 
-1. The daemon generates a persistent ECDH keypair and stores it locally
-2. When you scan the QR code or click the pairing link, your phone receives the daemon's public key
-3. Your phone sends a handshake message with its own public key. The daemon will not accept any commands until this handshake completes.
-4. Both sides perform an ECDH key exchange to derive a shared secret. All subsequent messages are encrypted with AES-256-GCM.
+1. The daemon generates a persistent Curve25519 keypair on first run and stores it at `$PASEO_HOME/daemon-keypair.json` with mode `0600`
+2. The pairing URL (rendered as a QR code or opened directly) carries the daemon's public key in its URL fragment (`https://app.paseo.sh/#offer=...`). Fragments are not sent to the web server, so `app.paseo.sh` never sees the key.
+3. When the phone connects via the relay, it generates a fresh ephemeral Curve25519 keypair and sends an `e2ee_hello` message containing its public key. The daemon will not process any application messages until this handshake completes.
+4. Both sides perform a Curve25519 ECDH key exchange to derive a shared key. All subsequent messages are encrypted with XSalsa20-Poly1305 (NaCl `box`). The wire format is `[24-byte nonce][ciphertext]`, base64-encoded as a WebSocket text frame.
 
-The relay sees only: IP addresses, timing, message sizes, and session IDs. It cannot read message contents, forge messages, or derive encryption keys from observing the handshake.
+The relay sees only: IP addresses, timing, message sizes, session IDs, and the plaintext `e2ee_hello` / `e2ee_ready` handshake frames (which contain only public keys). It cannot read message contents, forge messages, or derive encryption keys from observing the handshake.
 
 ### Why the relay can't attack you
 
 The daemon requires a valid cryptographic handshake before processing any commands. A compromised relay cannot:
 
-- **Send commands** — Without your phone's private key, it cannot complete the handshake
-- **Read your traffic** — All messages are encrypted with AES-256-GCM after the handshake
-- **Forge messages** — GCM provides authenticated encryption; tampered messages are rejected
-- **Replay old messages** — Each session derives fresh encryption keys
+- **Impersonate the daemon to your phone** — Without the daemon's secret key, it cannot derive the shared key, so any traffic it injects fails authenticated decryption on the phone
+- **Send commands as you** — The daemon only accepts traffic that decrypts and authenticates under a shared key derived with its own secret key. The phone's keypair is ephemeral per connection, so there is no persistent phone-side secret to steal; protection comes from the daemon's secret key never leaving the daemon.
+- **Read your traffic** — All messages are encrypted with XSalsa20-Poly1305 (NaCl box) after the handshake
+- **Forge messages** — NaCl box provides authenticated encryption; tampered messages are rejected
+- **Replay old messages across sessions** — Each session derives fresh encryption keys, so ciphertext from one session cannot be replayed into another session. Within a live session, replay protection is not yet implemented; the protocol uses random nonces and does not track nonce reuse or message counters.
 
 ### Trust model
 
 The QR code or pairing link is the trust anchor. It contains the daemon's public key, which is required to establish the encrypted connection. Treat it like a password — don't share it publicly.
 
+## Local daemon trust boundary
+
+By default, the daemon binds to `127.0.0.1`. With no password configured, the local control plane is trusted by network reachability — anything that can reach the daemon socket can control the daemon. This is the same security model Docker documents for its daemon: the security boundary is access to the socket or listening address.
+
+The daemon also supports an optional shared-secret password (set via `auth.password` in `config.json` or the `PASEO_PASSWORD` env var; stored bcrypt-hashed). When configured, every HTTP request must carry `Authorization: Bearer <password>` and every WebSocket upgrade must include a `Sec-WebSocket-Protocol: paseo.bearer.<password>` subprotocol. Browser WebSocket cannot set custom headers, which is why the token rides in the subprotocol. Health (`GET /api/health`) and CORS preflight (`OPTIONS`) are exempt. The password is intended for direct-TCP exposure (e.g. `tcp://host:port?ssl=true&password=...`); it is **not** a substitute for the relay's E2E encryption when traversing untrusted networks.
+
+Connected clients are trusted operators of the daemon user. File previews follow that authority: a preview request may read any regular file the daemon process can read, while keeping path normalization and symlink checks in the daemon file service. Workspace-relative paths remain a UI convenience, not a security boundary.
+
+If you expose the daemon beyond loopback, such as by binding to `0.0.0.0`, forwarding it through a tunnel or reverse proxy, or publishing it from a Docker container, you are responsible for restricting and securing that access. Setting a password is strongly recommended in that case.
+
+For remote access, use the relay connection. It is the supported path for reaching the daemon off-machine, and it adds end-to-end encryption plus a pairing handshake before commands are accepted.
+
+Host header validation and CORS origin checks are defense-in-depth controls for localhost exposure. They help block DNS rebinding and browser-based attacks, but they do not replace network isolation.
+
 ## DNS rebinding protection
 
 CORS is not a complete security boundary. It controls which browser origins can make requests, but does not prevent a malicious website from resolving its domain to your local machine (DNS rebinding).
 
-Paseo uses a host allowlist to validate the `Host` header on incoming requests. Requests with unrecognized hosts are rejected.
+Paseo validates the `Host` header on every HTTP request and every WebSocket upgrade against an allowlist (Vite-style semantics). By default, only `localhost`, `*.localhost`, and any literal IP address (IPv4 or IPv6) are accepted. Additional hostnames can be configured via `hostnames` in `config.json` or the `PASEO_HOSTNAMES` env var (comma-separated; entries beginning with `.` match a domain and its subdomains; the value `true` disables the allowlist entirely). Requests with unrecognized hosts are rejected with `403 Host not allowed`.

-- **Daemon:** Local server that spawns and manages agent processes and exposes the WebSocket API.
-- **App:** Cross-platform Expo client for iOS, Android, web, and the shared UI used by desktop.
-- **CLI:** Terminal interface for agent workflows that can also start and manage the daemon.
-- **Desktop app:** Electron wrapper around the web app that bundles and auto-manages its own daemon.
-- **Relay:** Optional encrypted bridge for remote access without opening ports directly.
-
-## Packages
-
-### `packages/server` — The daemon
-
-The heart of Paseo. A Node.js process that:
-
-- Listens for WebSocket connections from clients
-- Manages agent lifecycle (create, run, stop, resume, archive)
-- Streams agent output in real time via a timeline model
-- Exposes an MCP server for agent-to-agent control
-- Optionally connects outbound to a relay for remote access
-
-**Key modules:**
-
-| Module | Responsibility |
-|---|---|
-| `bootstrap.ts` | Daemon initialization: HTTP server, WS server, agent manager, storage, relay |
-| `websocket-server.ts` | WebSocket connection management, hello/welcome handshake, binary multiplexing |
-| `session.ts` | Per-client session state, timeline subscriptions, terminal operations |
-| `agent/agent-manager.ts` | Agent lifecycle state machine, timeline tracking, subscriber management |
-| `agent/agent-storage.ts` | File-backed JSON persistence at `$PASEO_HOME/agents/` |
-| `agent/mcp-server.ts` | MCP server for sub-agent creation, permissions, timeouts |
-| `providers/` | Provider adapters: Claude (Agent SDK), Codex (AppServer), OpenCode |
-| `relay-transport.ts` | Outbound relay connection with E2E encryption |
-| `client/daemon-client.ts` | Client library for connecting to the daemon (used by CLI and app) |
-
-### `packages/app` — Mobile + web client (Expo)
-
-Cross-platform React Native app that connects to one or more daemons.
-
-- Expo Router navigation (`/h/[serverId]/agents`, etc.)
-- `DaemonRegistryContext` manages saved daemon connections
-- `SessionContext` wraps the daemon client for the active session
-- `Stream` model handles timeline with compaction, gap detection, sequence-based deduplication
-- Voice features: dictation (STT) and voice agent (realtime)
-
-### `packages/cli` — Command-line client
-
-Commander.js CLI with Docker-style commands:
-
-- `paseo agent ls/run/stop/logs/inspect/wait/send/attach`
-- `paseo daemon start/stop/restart/status/pair`
-- `paseo permit allow/deny/ls`
-- `paseo provider ls/models`
-- `paseo worktree ls/archive`
-
-Communicates with the daemon via the same WebSocket protocol as the app.
-
-### `packages/relay` — E2E encrypted relay
-
-Enables remote access when the daemon is behind a firewall.
-
-- ECDH key exchange + AES-256-GCM encryption
-- Relay server is zero-knowledge — it routes encrypted bytes, cannot read content
-- Client and daemon channels with identical API (`createClientChannel`, `createDaemonChannel`)
-- Pairing via QR code transfers the daemon's public key to the client
-
-See [SECURITY.md](../SECURITY.md) for the full threat model.
-
-### `packages/desktop` — Desktop app (Electron)
-
-Electron wrapper for macOS, Linux, and Windows.
-
-- Can spawn the daemon as a managed subprocess
-- Native file access for workspace integration
-- Same WebSocket client as mobile app
-
-### `packages/website` — Marketing site
-
-TanStack Router + Cloudflare Workers. Serves paseo.sh.
-
-## WebSocket protocol
-
-All clients speak the same binary-multiplexed WebSocket protocol.
-
-**Handshake:**
-
-```
-Client → Server:  WSHelloMessage { id, clientId, version, timestamp }
-Server → Client:  WSWelcomeMessage { clientId, daemonVersion, sessionId, capabilities }
-```
-
-**Message types:**
-
-- `agent_update` — Agent state changed (status, title, labels)
-- `agent_stream` — New timeline event from a running agent
-- `workspace_update` — Workspace state changed
-- `agent_permission_request` — Agent needs user approval for a tool call
-- Command-response pairs for fetch, list, create, etc.
-
-**Binary multiplexing:**
-
-Terminal I/O and agent streaming share the same connection via `BinaryMuxFrame`:
-- Channel 0: control messages
-- Channel 1: terminal data
-- 1-byte channel ID + 1-byte flags + variable payload
-
-## Agent lifecycle
-
-```
-initializing → idle → running → idle (or error → closed)
-                 ↑        │
-                 └────────┘  (agent completes a turn, awaits next prompt)
-```
-
-- **AgentManager** tracks up to 200 timeline items per agent
-- Timeline is append-only with epochs (each run starts a new epoch)
-- Events stream to all subscribed clients in real time
-- Agent state persists to `$PASEO_HOME/agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json`
-
-## Agent providers
-
-Each provider implements a common `AgentClient` interface:
-
-| Provider | Wraps | Session format |
-|---|---|---|
-| Claude | Anthropic Agent SDK | `~/.claude/projects/{cwd}/{session-id}.jsonl` |
-| Codex | CodexAppServer | `~/.codex/sessions/{date}/rollout-{ts}-{id}.jsonl` |
-| OpenCode | OpenCode CLI | Provider-managed |
-
-All providers:
-- Handle their own authentication (Paseo does not manage API keys)
-- Support session resume via persistence handles
-- Map tool calls to a normalized `ToolCallDetail` type
-- Expose provider-specific modes (plan, default, full-access)
-
-## Data flow: running an agent
-
-1. Client sends `CreateAgentRequestMessage` with config (prompt, cwd, provider, model, mode)
-2. Session routes to `AgentManager.create()`
-3. AgentManager creates a `ManagedAgent`, initializes provider session
-4. Provider runs the agent → emits `AgentStreamEvent` items
-5. Events append to the agent timeline, broadcast to all subscribed clients
-6. Tool calls are normalized to `ToolCallDetail` (shell, read, edit, write, search, etc.)
-7. Permission requests flow: agent → server → client → user decision → server → agent
-
-## Storage
-
-```
-$PASEO_HOME/
-├── agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json   # Agent state + config
-├── projects/projects.json                      # Project registry
-├── projects/workspaces.json                    # Workspace registry
-└── daemon.log                                  # Daemon trace logs
-```
-
-## Deployment models
-
-1. **Local daemon** (default): `paseo daemon start` on `127.0.0.1:6767`
-2. **Managed desktop**: Electron app spawns daemon as subprocess
-3. **Remote + relay**: Daemon behind firewall, relay bridges with E2E encryption

-# Coding Standards
-
-These standards apply to all code changes: features, bug fixes, refactors, and performance work.
-
-## Core principles
-
-- **Zero complexity budget** — justify every abstraction with specific benefits
-- **Fully typed TypeScript** — no `any`, no untyped boundaries
-- **YAGNI** — build features and abstractions only when needed
-- **Functional and declarative** over object-oriented
-- **`interface`** over `type` when possible
-- **`function` declarations** over arrow function assignments
-- **Single-purpose functions** — one function, one job
-- **Design for edge cases through types** rather than explicit handling
-- **Don't catch errors** unless there's a strong reason to
-- **No index.ts barrel files** that only re-export — they create unnecessary indirection
-- **No "while I'm at it" improvements** — stay focused on the task
-
-## Type hygiene
-
-### Infer from schemas
-
-Never hand-write a TypeScript type that can be inferred from a Zod schema.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad: duplicate type that can drift
-const schema = z.object({ procedure: z.string(), args: z.record(z.unknown()) });
-type RPCArgs = { procedure: string; args: Record<string, unknown> };
-
-// Good: infer from schema
-type RPCArgs = z.infer<typeof schema>;
-```
-
-### Named types over inline
-
-No complex inline types in public function signatures.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad
-function enqueueJob(input: { userId: string; priority: "low" | "normal" | "high" }) {}
-
-// Good
-interface EnqueueJobInput { userId: string; priority: "low" | "normal" | "high" }
-function enqueueJob(input: EnqueueJobInput) {}
-```
-
-### Object parameters
-
-If a function needs more than one argument, use a single object parameter.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad: positional args
-function createToolCall(provider: string, toolName: string, payload: unknown) {}
-
-// Good: object param
-interface CreateToolCallInput { provider: string; toolName: string; payload: unknown }
-function createToolCall(input: CreateToolCallInput) {}
-```
-
-### One canonical type per concept
-
-Don't redefine the same concept in different layer-specific shapes (`RpcX`, `DbX`, `UiX`). Keep one canonical type and add explicit layer wrappers that reference it.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad: duplicated fields across layers
-type RpcToolCall = { toolName: string; args: Record<string, unknown>; requestId: string };
-type DbToolCall = { toolName: string; args: Record<string, unknown>; id: string; createdAt: Date };
-
-// Good: canonical type + wrappers
-type ToolCall = { toolName: string; args: Record<string, unknown> };
-type ToolCallRequest = { requestId: string; toolCall: ToolCall };
-type ToolCallRecord = { id: string; createdAt: Date; toolCall: ToolCall };
-```
-
-## Make impossible states impossible
-
-Use discriminated unions instead of bags of booleans and optionals.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad
-interface FetchState { isLoading: boolean; error?: Error; data?: Data }
-
-// Good
-type FetchState =
-  | { status: "idle" }
-  | { status: "loading" }
-  | { status: "error"; error: Error }
-  | { status: "success"; data: Data };
-```
-
-## Optionality is a design decision
-
-Don't mark fields optional to avoid migrations. Decide deliberately:
-
-1. Is optionality actually needed?
-2. If there are distinct valid states → discriminated union
-3. If value can be intentionally empty → explicit `null`
-4. Keep optionality at real boundaries (external input), then resolve it
-
-## Validate at boundaries, trust internally
-
-Parse external data once at the boundary with schema validation. Then use typed values everywhere else.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad: optional chaining because shape is unclear
-const value = response?.data?.items?.[0]?.name;
-
-// Good: validate at boundary, trust the types
-const parsed = responseSchema.parse(rawResponse);
-const value = parsed.data.items[0].name;
-```
-
-## Error handling
-
-- **Fail explicitly** — if caller requests X and X is unavailable, throw rather than silently returning Y
-- **Use typed domain errors** — not plain `Error`. Carry structured metadata for handling, logging, and user messaging
-- **Preserve error semantics** — don't collapse meaningful typed errors into generic `Error`
-
-```typescript
-class TimeoutError extends Error {
-  constructor(
-    public readonly operation: string,
-    public readonly waitedMs: number,
-  ) {
-    super(`${operation} timed out after ${waitedMs}ms`);
-    this.name = "TimeoutError";
-  }
-}
-```
-
-## Keep logic density low
-
-Avoid packing branching, lookup, and transformation into single dense expressions.
-
-```typescript
-// Bad: nested ternaries + inline lookups
-const billing = shouldUseLegacy(account)
-  ? getLegacy(account)
-  : buildBilling(account, rates.find((r) => r.region === account.region));
-
-// Good: named steps, then assemble
-const rate = rates.find((r) => r.region === account.region);
-if (!rate) throw new MissingRateError(account.region);
-const billing = shouldUseLegacy(account) ? getLegacy(account) : buildBilling(account, rate);
-```
-
-## Centralize policy
-
-When the same discriminator (`plan`, `provider`, `kind`, `status`) is checked across multiple files, centralize it into a policy model. A new case should require editing one place, not many.
-
-## React: keep components dumb
-
-- Components render state and dispatch events — they don't compute transitions
-- If a component has more than two interacting `useState` calls, extract a state machine or reducer
-- `useRef` for mutable coordination state (flags, timers) is a smell — model states explicitly
-- Never mirror a source of truth into local state; derive from it
-- Test state logic as pure functions without rendering
-
-## File organization
-
-- Organize by domain first (`providers/claude/`), not by technical type (`tool-parsers/`)
-- Name files after the main export (`create-toolcall.ts`)
-- Use `index.ts` as an entrypoint, not a dumping ground
-- Collocate tests with implementation (`thing.ts` + `thing.test.ts`)
-
-## Refactoring contract
-
-Refactoring is structure work, not feature work.
-
-- Preserve behavior by default, especially user-facing behavior
-- Do not remove features to simplify code without explicit approval
-- Have a verification strategy before you start
-- Fully migrate callers and remove old paths in the same refactor
-- No fallback behavior by default — prefer explicit error over silent degradation

-# Designing Features
-
-How to think through a feature before writing code.
-
-## Start from the user
-
-Even for backend work, start from the user's perspective:
-
-- What problem does this solve?
-- What triggers it? User action, schedule, event?
-- What does success look like from the user's perspective?
-- What data does it need? Where does that data come from?
-
-## Map existing code
-
-Before designing anything new, understand what exists:
-
-- Where does similar functionality live?
-- What patterns does the codebase already use?
-- What layers exist? (See [ARCHITECTURE.md](./ARCHITECTURE.md))
-- What types and data shapes are already defined?
-
-New features rarely mean only new code. Usually they require modifying existing interfaces, extending existing types, or refactoring to accommodate the new functionality. Identify what needs to change, not just what needs to be added.
-
-## Define verification before implementation
-
-Before designing the solution, define how you'll know it works:
-
-- What tests will prove this feature is correct?
-- At what layer? Unit, integration, E2E?
-- What's the simplest way to verify the core behavior?
-
-If you can't define verification, you don't understand the feature well enough yet.
-
-## Design the shape
-
-### Data
-
-- What types are needed?
-- Use discriminated unions — make impossible states impossible
-- One canonical type per concept (see [CODING_STANDARDS.md](./CODING_STANDARDS.md))
-
-### Layers
-
-- What belongs in each layer?
-- Where are the boundaries?
-- What does each layer expose to the layer above?
-
-### Interactions
-
-- How does data flow through the system?
-- What triggers what?
-- Where do side effects happen?
-
-### Refactoring
-
-- What existing code needs to change?
-- Is existing code testable enough? If not, that's part of the plan.
-
-## Create a concrete plan
-
-Once the design is clear:
-
-1. **Acceptance criteria** — specific, verifiable outcomes (not "should work well" but "returns X when given Y")
-2. **Ordered steps** — what to build first (usually: types, then lowest layer, then up)
-3. **What to refactor** before adding new code
-4. **How to verify** each step
-
-## Principles
-
-- **Fit, don't force** — new code should fit existing patterns, or refactor first
-- **Simple** — the best design is the simplest one that works
-- **Verify early** — define how to test before designing the implementation

-# Development
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Node.js (see `.tool-versions` for exact version)
-- npm workspaces (comes with Node)
-
-## Running the dev server
-
-```bash
-npm run dev
-```
-
-The dev script automatically picks an available port. Both the server and Expo app run in a Tmux session — see `CLAUDE.local.md` for system-specific session details.
-
-### Running alongside the main checkout
-
-Set `PASEO_HOME` to isolate state when running a second instance (e.g., in a worktree):
-
-```bash
-PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo-blue npm run dev
-```
-
-- `PASEO_HOME` — path for runtime state (agents, sockets, etc.). Defaults to `~/.paseo`.
-
-### Default ports
-
-In the main checkout:
-- Daemon: `localhost:6767`
-- Expo app: `localhost:8081`
-
-In worktrees or with `npm run dev`, ports may differ. Never assume defaults.
-
-### Daemon logs
-
-Check `$PASEO_HOME/daemon.log` for trace-level logs.
-
-## Build sync gotchas
-
-### Relay → Daemon
-
-When changing `packages/relay/src/*`, rebuild before running the daemon:
-
-```bash
-npm run build --workspace=@getpaseo/relay
-```
-
-The Node daemon imports `@getpaseo/relay` from `packages/relay/dist/*`, not `src/*`.
-
-### Server → CLI
-
-When changing `packages/server/src/client/*` (especially `daemon-client.ts`) or shared WS protocol types, rebuild before running CLI commands:
-
-```bash
-npm run build --workspace=@getpaseo/server
-```
-
-The CLI imports `@getpaseo/server` via package exports resolving to `dist/*`. Stale `dist` means the CLI speaks an old protocol and fails with handshake warnings or timeouts.
-
-## CLI reference
-
-Use `npm run cli` to run the local CLI (instead of the globally installed `paseo` which points to the main checkout).
-
-```bash
-npm run cli -- ls -a -g              # List all agents globally
-npm run cli -- ls -a -g --json       # Same, as JSON
-npm run cli -- inspect <id>          # Show detailed agent info
-npm run cli -- logs <id>             # View agent timeline
-npm run cli -- daemon status         # Check daemon status
-```
-
-Use `--host <host:port>` to point the CLI at a different daemon:
-
-```bash
-npm run cli -- --host localhost:7777 ls -a
-```
-
-## Agent state
-
-Agent data lives at:
-
-```
-$PASEO_HOME/agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json
-```
-
-Find an agent by ID:
-```bash
-find $PASEO_HOME/agents -name "{agent-id}.json"
-```
-
-Find by content:
-```bash
-rg -l "some title text" $PASEO_HOME/agents/
-```
-
-## Provider session files
-
-Get the session ID from the agent JSON (`persistence.sessionId`), then:
-
-**Claude:**
-```
-~/.claude/projects/{cwd-with-dashes}/{session-id}.jsonl
-```
-
-**Codex:**
-```
-~/.codex/sessions/{YYYY}/{MM}/{DD}/rollout-{timestamp}-{session-id}.jsonl
-```
-
-## Testing with Playwright MCP
-
-Use Playwright MCP connecting to Metro at `http://localhost:8081` for UI testing.
-
-Do NOT use browser history (back/forward). Always navigate by clicking UI elements or using `browser_navigate` with the full URL — the app uses client-side routing and browser history breaks state.
-
-## Expo troubleshooting
-
-```bash
-npx expo-doctor
-```
-
-Diagnoses version mismatches and native module issues.
-
-## Typecheck
-
-Always run typecheck after changes:
-
-```bash
-npm run typecheck
-```

-# Release
-
-All workspaces share one version and release together.
-
-## Standard release (patch)
-
-```bash
-npm run release:patch
-```
-
-This bumps the version across all workspaces, runs checks, publishes to npm, and pushes the branch + tag (triggering desktop, APK, and EAS mobile workflows).
-
-If asked to "release paseo" without specifying major/minor, treat it as a patch release.
-
-## Manual step-by-step
-
-```bash
-npm run release:check        # Typecheck, build, dry-run pack
-npm run version:all:patch    # Bump version, create commit + tag
-npm run release:publish      # Publish to npm
-npm run release:push         # Push HEAD + tag (triggers CI workflows)
-```
-
-## Draft release flow
-
-```bash
-npm run draft-release:patch    # Bump, push tag, create draft GitHub Release
-# ... test builds from the draft release assets ...
-npm run release:finalize       # Publish npm, promote draft to published
-```
-
-- `draft-release:patch` creates the GitHub Release as a draft so desktop assets, APK uploads, and synced notes attach to it
-- `release:finalize` publishes npm and promotes the same draft release
-- Use the same semver tag for both; don't cut a second tag
-- Desktop assets now come from the Electron package at `packages/desktop`
-- **Do NOT create a changelog entry for drafts.** The changelog entry is written only when finalizing. The website parses `CHANGELOG.md` to determine the latest published version for download links — adding an entry for a draft will point the homepage at untested assets.
-
-## Fixing a failed release build
-
-**NEVER bump the version to fix a build problem.** New versions are reserved for meaningful product changes (features, fixes, improvements). Build/CI failures are fixed on the current version.
-
-**NEVER use `workflow_dispatch` to retry release builds.** The `workflow_dispatch` trigger runs the workflow file from the default branch but checks out the code at the tag ref (`ref: ${{ inputs.tag }}`). This means build fixes committed to `main` won't be picked up — the old broken code at the tag gets built again.
-
-To retry a failed workflow, **always push a retry tag** on the commit you want to build:
-
-```bash
-# Desktop (all platforms)
-git tag -f desktop-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-v0.1.28 --force
-
-# Desktop (single platform)
-git tag -f desktop-macos-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-macos-v0.1.28 --force
-git tag -f desktop-linux-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-linux-v0.1.28 --force
-git tag -f desktop-windows-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-windows-v0.1.28 --force
-
-# Android APK
-git tag -f android-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin android-v0.1.28 --force
-```
-
-This ensures the checkout ref matches the actual code on `main` with the fix included.
-
-## Notes
-
-- `version:all:*` bumps root + syncs workspace versions and `@getpaseo/*` dependency versions
-- `release:prepare` refreshes workspace `node_modules` links to prevent stale types
-- `npm run dev:desktop` and `npm run build:desktop` target the Electron desktop package in `packages/desktop`
-- If `release:publish` partially fails, re-run it — npm skips already-published versions
-- The website parses the first `## X.Y.Z` heading in `CHANGELOG.md` to determine the download version. This is why changelog entries must only be added at finalization, not during drafts.
-
-## Changelog format
-
-The website depends on the changelog to determine the latest download version. The heading format **must** be strictly followed:
-
-```
-## X.Y.Z - YYYY-MM-DD
-```
-
-No prefix (`v`), no extra text. The parser matches the first `## X.Y.Z` line to extract the version. A malformed heading will break download links on the homepage.
-
-## Completion checklist
-
-- [ ] Update `CHANGELOG.md` with user-facing release notes (features, fixes — not refactors)
-- [ ] Verify the changelog heading follows strict `## X.Y.Z - YYYY-MM-DD` format
-- [ ] `npm run release:patch` (or `release:finalize` for drafts) completes successfully
-- [ ] GitHub `Desktop Release` workflow for the `v*` tag is green
-- [ ] GitHub `Android APK Release` workflow for the same tag is green
-- [ ] EAS `release-mobile.yml` workflow for the same tag is green

-# Testing
-
-## Philosophy
-
-Tests prove behavior, not structure. Every test should answer: "what user-visible or API-visible behavior does this verify?"
-
-## Test-driven development
-
-Work in vertical slices: one test, one implementation, repeat. Each test responds to what you learned from the previous cycle.
-
-```
-RIGHT (vertical):
-  RED→GREEN: test1→impl1
-  RED→GREEN: test2→impl2
-  RED→GREEN: test3→impl3
-
-WRONG (horizontal):
-  RED:   test1, test2, test3, test4, test5
-  GREEN: impl1, impl2, impl3, impl4, impl5
-```
-
-Writing all tests first then all implementation produces bad tests — you end up testing imagined behavior instead of actual behavior.
-
-## Determinism first
-
-Tests must produce the same result every run:
-
-- No conditional assertions or branching paths
-- No reliance on timing, randomness, or network jitter
-- No weak assertions (`toBeTruthy`, `toBeDefined`)
-- Assert the full intended behavior, not fragments
-
-```typescript
-// Bad: conditional and weak
-it("creates a tool call", async () => {
-  const result = await createToolCall(input);
-  if (result.ok) {
-    expect(result.id).toBeDefined();
-  }
-});
-
-// Good: deterministic and explicit
-it("returns timeout error when provider times out", async () => {
-  const result = await createToolCall(input);
-  expect(result).toEqual({
-    ok: false,
-    error: { code: "PROVIDER_TIMEOUT", waitedMs: 30000 },
-  });
-});
-```
-
-## Flaky tests are a bug
-
-Never remove a test because it's flaky. Find the variance source (time, randomness, race condition, shared state, non-deterministic output, environment drift) and fix it.
-
-## Real dependencies over mocks
-
-Mocks are not the default. They require an explicit decision.
-
-- **Database**: real test database, not a mock
-- **APIs**: real APIs with test/sandbox credentials, not request mocks
-- **File system**: temporary directory that gets cleaned up, not fs mocks
-
-Ask: "will this still hold with real dependencies at runtime?" If no, don't mock.
-
-### Use swappable adapters instead
-
-When you need test isolation, design code so dependencies are injectable:
-
-```typescript
-interface EmailSender {
-  send(to: string, body: string): Promise<void>;
-}
-
-// Production
-const realSender: EmailSender = { send: sendgrid.send };
-
-// Test: in-memory adapter
-function createTestEmailSender() {
-  const sent: Array<{ to: string; body: string }> = [];
-  return {
-    send: async (to: string, body: string) => { sent.push({ to, body }); },
-    sent,
-  };
-}
-```
-
-## End-to-end means end-to-end
-
-When a test is labeled end-to-end, it calls the real service. No environment variable gates, no conditional skipping, no mocking the external dependency.
-
-## Test organization
-
-- Collocate tests with implementation: `thing.ts` + `thing.test.ts`
-- Extract complex setup into reusable helpers
-- Test bodies should read like plain English
-- Build a vocabulary of test helpers that make complex flows simple
-
-## Agent authentication in tests
-
-Agent providers handle their own auth. Do not add auth checks, environment variable gates, or conditional skips to tests. If auth fails, report it.
-
-## Debugging with tests
-
-Use the test as your debugging ground:
-
-1. Add temporary logging to the code under test
-2. Run the test, observe actual values
-3. Trace the flow end-to-end through test output
-4. Confirm each assumption with actual output
-5. Remove logging when done
-
-The test output is the source of truth, not your reading of the code.
-
-## Design for testability
-
-If code isn't testable, refactor it. Signs:
-- You want to reach for a mock
-- You can't inject a dependency
-- You need to test private internals
-- Setup requires too much global state
-
-Aim for deep modules: small interface, deep implementation. Fewer methods = fewer tests needed, simpler params = simpler setup.

+# Ad-hoc daemon testing
+
+Spin up an isolated in-process daemon test harness without touching the main daemon on port 6767.
+
+This is for test code only. Executable daemon processes must start through
+`scripts/supervisor-entrypoint.ts` or `dist/scripts/supervisor-entrypoint.js`;
+do not use `createPaseoDaemon` as a product launch path.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```typescript
+import os from "node:os";
+import path from "node:path";
+import { mkdir, mkdtemp, rm } from "node:fs/promises";
+import pino from "pino";
+import { createPaseoDaemon } from "./bootstrap.js";
+import { DaemonClient } from "./test-utils/daemon-client.js";
+
+const logger = pino({ level: "warn" });
+const paseoHomeRoot = await mkdtemp(path.join(os.tmpdir(), "paseo-test-"));
+const paseoHome = path.join(paseoHomeRoot, ".paseo");
+await mkdir(paseoHome, { recursive: true });
+const staticDir = await mkdtemp(path.join(os.tmpdir(), "paseo-static-"));
+
+const daemon = await createPaseoDaemon(
+  {
+    listen: "127.0.0.1:0", // OS picks a free port
+    paseoHome,
+    corsAllowedOrigins: [],
+    hostnames: true,
+    mcpEnabled: false,
+    staticDir,
+    mcpDebug: false,
+    agentClients: {},
+    agentStoragePath: path.join(paseoHome, "agents"),
+    relayEnabled: false,
+    relayEndpoint: "relay.paseo.sh:443",
+    appBaseUrl: "https://app.paseo.sh",
+    // Add custom config here, e.g.:
+    // providerOverrides: { ... },
+  },
+  logger,
+);
+
+await daemon.start();
+const target = daemon.getListenTarget();
+const port = target!.type === "tcp" ? target!.port : null;
+
+const client = new DaemonClient({
+  url: `ws://127.0.0.1:${port}/ws`,
+  appVersion: "0.1.70", // see gotcha #1
+});
+await client.connect();
+await client.fetchAgents({ subscribe: { subscriptionId: "test" } });
+
+// ... do your testing ...
+
+await client.close();
+await daemon.stop();
+await rm(paseoHomeRoot, { recursive: true, force: true });
+await rm(staticDir, { recursive: true, force: true });
+```
+
+Run with:
+
+```bash
+npx tsx packages/server/src/server/your-script.ts
+```
+
+## Using the test helper
+
+For simpler cases, `createTestPaseoDaemon` + `DaemonClient` handles temp dirs and port selection:
+
+```typescript
+import { createTestPaseoDaemon } from "./test-utils/paseo-daemon.js";
+import { DaemonClient } from "./test-utils/daemon-client.js";
+
+const daemon = await createTestPaseoDaemon();
+const client = new DaemonClient({
+  url: `ws://127.0.0.1:${daemon.port}/ws`,
+  appVersion: "0.1.70",
+});
+await client.connect();
+await client.fetchAgents({ subscribe: { subscriptionId: "test" } });
+
+// ... test ...
+
+await client.close();
+await daemon.close(); // stops daemon + cleans up temp dirs
+```
+
+The test helper does **not** expose `providerOverrides`. In test harnesses, use `createPaseoDaemon` directly when you need it (see quick start above).
+
+## Common client methods
+
+```typescript
+// Provider discovery
+const snapshot = await client.getProvidersSnapshot({ cwd: "/tmp" });
+const models = await client.listProviderModels("claude");
+const modes = await client.listProviderModes("claude");
+
+// Agent lifecycle
+const agent = await client.createAgent({ provider: "claude", cwd: "/tmp" });
+await client.sendMessage(agent.id, "Hello");
+const updated = await client.waitForAgentUpsert(agent.id, (s) => s.status === "idle");
+```
+
+## Gotchas
+
+### 1. appVersion gates provider visibility
+
+The daemon hides non-legacy providers (anything other than claude, codex, opencode) from clients that don't send an `appVersion >= 0.1.45`. The `DaemonClient` sends no version by default, so custom providers like ACP-based ones will be invisible in snapshot responses.
+
+Always pass `appVersion`:
+
+```typescript
+const client = new DaemonClient({
+  url: `ws://127.0.0.1:${port}/ws`,
+  appVersion: "0.1.70",
+});
+```
+
+### 2. Provider snapshots are async
+
+After the daemon starts, providers are probed in the background. The first `getProvidersSnapshot()` call will likely return `status: "loading"` for most providers. Poll until the provider you care about is no longer loading:
+
+```typescript
+let snapshot = await client.getProvidersSnapshot({ cwd: "/tmp" });
+for (let i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
+  const entry = snapshot.entries.find((e) => e.provider === "gemini");
+  if (entry && entry.status !== "loading") break;
+  await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 2_000));
+  snapshot = await client.getProvidersSnapshot({ cwd: "/tmp" });
+}
+```
+
+### 3. fetchAgents is required before most operations
+
+Call `client.fetchAgents()` after connecting. The daemon session expects this handshake before it processes other requests — without it, messages like `get_providers_snapshot_request` will silently hang.
+
+### 4. listen: "127.0.0.1:0" for port allocation
+
+Always use port `0` so the OS picks a free port. Never hardcode a port — it will collide with the main daemon or other test runs.
+
+### 5. Script must live inside packages/server
+
+The test utilities use relative imports through the TypeScript project. Place your script somewhere under `packages/server/src/` and import from there. Scripts outside the repo will fail with module resolution errors.
+
+### 6. Cleanup on failure
+
+Wrap your test logic in try/finally to ensure the daemon stops and temp dirs are cleaned up, even if an assertion fails:
+
+```typescript
+try {
+  // ... test logic ...
+} finally {
+  await client.close();
+  await daemon.stop().catch(() => undefined);
+  await rm(paseoHomeRoot, { recursive: true, force: true });
+}
+```
+
+### 7. ACP providers spawn real processes
+
+When testing ACP providers (e.g., Gemini with `extends: "acp"`), the daemon will spawn real processes to probe for models and modes. The binary must be installed and on PATH. Probing can take 5-15 seconds depending on the provider.

+# Agent lifecycle
+
+How an agent is created, runs, becomes a subagent, gets archived, and disappears from the UI. The model spans the daemon (lifecycle, archive) and the client (tabs, the subagents track).
+
+## States
+
+```
+initializing → idle → running → idle (or error → closed)
+                 ↑        │
+                 └────────┘  (agent completes a turn, awaits next prompt)
+```
+
+Each agent in `AgentManager` carries a `lastStatus` of `initializing`, `idle`, `running`, `error`, or `closed`. State transitions persist to disk and stream to subscribed clients via WebSocket.
+
+## Relationships
+
+Agents can launch other agents via the agent-scoped `create_agent` MCP tool. Agent-scoped creation is always asynchronous. By default, the daemon stamps the created agent with a label `paseo.parent-agent-id` pointing back at the agent that created it. The client surfaces that as `agent.parentAgentId`.
+
+Agent-scoped `create_agent` accepts `detached: true` for agents that should stand on their own. The daemon still uses the creating agent for cwd/config inheritance, but does not write `paseo.parent-agent-id`.
+
+- **Subagents** — created with `detached: false` or omitted. They exist as part of the creating agent's work, appear in that agent's subagent track, and are archived with it.
+- **Detached agents** — created with `detached: true`. They take over as sibling/root agents (e.g. handoffs, fire-and-forget delegations), do not appear in the creating agent's subagent track, and are not archived with it.
+
+`notifyOnFinish` defaults to `true` for agent-scoped creation because most subagents are delegated work the creating agent needs to hear back from. Set it to `false` only for truly fire-and-forget agents.
+
+## Archive
+
+Archive is a **soft delete**: the agent record stays on disk with `archivedAt` set, the runtime is closed, and the agent disappears from active lists. Archive is **global** — it lives on the server and propagates to every connected client.
+
+`create_agent_request` can opt an agent into `autoArchive`. In that mode the daemon archives the agent after the first terminal turn event (`turn_completed`, `turn_failed`, or `turn_canceled`). If the same request created a Paseo worktree through its `worktree` field, auto-archive archives that worktree too, which removes the agent records inside the worktree.
+
+Archiving runs through `AgentManager.archiveAgent` (`packages/server/src/server/agent/agent-manager.ts`):
+
+1. Snapshot the current session into the registry
+2. Set `archivedAt` and normalize `lastStatus` away from `running`/`initializing`
+3. Notify subscribers
+4. Close the runtime (kills the process if still running)
+5. **Cascade-archive children** — any agent whose `paseo.parent-agent-id` label matches the archived agent gets archived too, recursively
+
+Cascade is what keeps subagent fleets from outliving their orchestrator.
+
+## Tabs vs archive
+
+These are two distinct concepts that used to be conflated:
+
+| Concept                    | Scope      | Triggers                   |
+| -------------------------- | ---------- | -------------------------- |
+| **Tab** (workspace layout) | Per-client | User opens/closes a view   |
+| **Archive** (lifecycle)    | Global     | Explicit lifecycle gesture |
+
+Closing a tab on a **root agent** still archives — the tab is the agent's home, so closing it means "I'm done with this agent." A confirm dialog protects against archiving a running agent by accident.
+
+Closing a tab on a **subagent** (any agent with `parentAgentId`) is **layout-only**. The agent stays unarchived and stays in its parent's track. The user can re-open the tab from the track at any time. This is implemented in `handleCloseAgentTab` (`packages/app/src/screens/workspace/workspace-screen.tsx`).
+
+The asymmetry is intentional: a subagent's home is the parent's track, not the tab. Tabs are ephemeral viewing slots; the track is the persistent record of the parent's children.
+
+## Workspace activity
+
+Agent lifecycle status stays literal: a parent agent is `idle` when its own turn is idle, even if a child is running.
+
+Workspace status is an aggregate activity signal. Root agents contribute their normal state bucket to their own workspace. Running subagents contribute `running` to their root parent's workspace, not to the subagent's current `cwd` or worktree. Non-running subagent attention, permission, and error states stay in the parent's subagents track and do not escalate the workspace bucket.
+
+## The subagents track
+
+The collapsible track above the composer in an agent's pane (`packages/app/src/subagents/track.tsx`). Membership rule (`packages/app/src/subagents/select.ts`):
+
+```
+parentAgentId === thisAgent.id  AND  !archivedAt
+```
+
+Archived subagents disappear from the track, by design. To remove a subagent from the track without closing its tab, use the **archive button (X)** on the row — it opens a confirm dialog and archives the subagent on confirm. That same archive shows the subagent leave the track on every connected client.
+
+## Why this shape
+
+The decision was to **decouple "close tab" from "archive" only for subagents**, rather than universally:
+
+- **Closing a tab on a root agent still archives** — preserves the existing UX users are trained on
+- **Closing a tab on a subagent is layout-only** — fixes the lossy "click to read, close to dismiss view, lose the row" flow
+- **Archive button on track rows** — gives subagents an explicit lifecycle gesture in their home surface
+- **Cascade archive on parent** — keeps subagents from leaking when the parent is archived
+
+We considered universal decoupling (no tab close ever archives, archive is always explicit) but rejected it: it changes a behavior root-agent users rely on.
+
+## Limitations
+
+### Subagent accumulation under long-lived parents
+
+A parent that spawns many subagents will see the track grow. There's no automatic cleanup for completed subagents — the user prunes via the archive button on each row. A bulk gesture (e.g. "archive all idle children") could land later if this becomes a real problem.
+
+### Cross-client tab dismissal
+
+Closing a subagent's tab on one client doesn't affect other clients' layouts. This is the expected behavior of decoupled tabs and is consistent with how layouts have always worked. Archive remains the global gesture for cross-client cleanup.
+

+| `labels["paseo.parent-agent-id"]` | `string?`     | Parent agent ID, set automatically by agent-scoped `create_agent` unless `detached: true` |
+| `lastStatus`                      | `AgentStatus` | `initializing` / `idle` / `running` / `error` / `closed`                                  |

+## App variants
+
+Controlled by `APP_VARIANT` in `packages/app/app.config.js` (vanilla Expo, no custom Gradle plugin):
+

+| `production`  | Paseo       | `sh.paseo`       |

+
+### React version lockstep
+
+Keep `react` and `react-dom` pinned to the React version embedded by the current `react-native` release. React Native `0.81.x` embeds `react-native-renderer` `19.1.0`, so `packages/app` must use React `19.1.0`. Bumping React to a newer patch can build successfully but crash at JS startup on Android with `Incompatible React versions`, leaving the app on the native splash screen.
+
+## Screenshots
+
+```bash
+adb exec-out screencap -p > screenshot.png
+```
+
+## Cloud build + submit (EAS)
+
+Stable tag pushes like `v0.1.0` trigger:
+
+- The EAS GitHub app on Expo servers (iOS + Android production builds + store submit). There is no workflow file in this repo for it.
+- `.github/workflows/android-apk-release.yml` on GitHub Actions (APK asset on GitHub Release).
+
+iOS auto-submits to App Store review via a Fastlane lane after EAS uploads to TestFlight. Android auto-submits to the Play Store via EAS-managed credentials.
+
+Beta tags like `v0.1.1-beta.1` only trigger the GitHub APK workflow. They publish a GitHub prerelease APK for testing and do not submit to the stores.
+
+`android-v*` tags also trigger only the GitHub APK workflow — useful when you want to ship an APK without going through stores. The GitHub APK workflow supports `workflow_dispatch` with an existing `tag` input so you can rebuild without cutting a new tag.
+
+### Useful commands
+
+```bash
+cd packages/app
+
+# Recent builds
+npx eas build:list --limit 10 --non-interactive --json | jq '.[] | {platform, status, appVersion, gitCommitHash}'
+
+# Inspect a build (the printed `Logs` URL opens the build's Expo dashboard page,
+# which has a Submissions section showing the auto-submit to the Play Store).
+npx eas build:view <build-id>
+```
+
+The Play Console (Internal testing → Production tracks) is the final confirmation that the binary reached the store.

+Paseo is a client-server system for monitoring and controlling local AI coding agents. The daemon runs on your machine, manages agent processes, and streams their output in real time over WebSocket. Clients (mobile app, CLI, desktop app) connect to the daemon to observe and interact with agents.
+
+Your code never leaves your machine. Paseo is local-first.

+
+## Components at a glance
+
+- **Daemon:** Local server that spawns and manages agent processes and exposes the WebSocket API.
+- **App:** Cross-platform Expo client for iOS, Android, web, and the shared UI used by desktop.
+- **CLI:** Terminal interface for agent workflows that can also start and manage the daemon.
+- **Desktop app:** Electron wrapper around the web app that bundles and auto-manages its own daemon.
+- **Relay:** Optional encrypted bridge for remote access without opening ports directly.
+
+## Packages
+
+### `packages/server` — The daemon
+
+The heart of Paseo. A Node.js process that:
+
+- Listens for WebSocket connections from clients
+- Manages agent lifecycle (create, run, stop, resume, archive)
+- Streams agent output in real time via a timeline model
+- Exposes an MCP server for agent-to-agent control
+- Optionally connects outbound to a relay for remote access
+
+All paths are under `packages/server/src/`.
+
+**Key modules:**
+
+| Module                          | Responsibility                                                               |
+| ------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `server/bootstrap.ts`           | Daemon initialization: HTTP server, WS server, agent manager, storage, relay |
+| `server/websocket-server.ts`    | WebSocket connection management, hello handshake, binary frame routing       |
+| `server/session.ts`             | Per-client session state, timeline subscriptions, terminal operations        |
+| `server/agent/agent-manager.ts` | Agent lifecycle state machine, timeline tracking, subscriber management      |
+| `server/agent/agent-storage.ts` | File-backed JSON persistence at `$PASEO_HOME/agents/`                        |
+| `server/agent/mcp-server.ts`    | MCP server for sub-agent creation, permissions, timeouts                     |
+| `server/agent/providers/`       | Provider adapters (see "Agent providers" below)                              |
+| `server/relay-transport.ts`     | Outbound relay connection with E2E encryption                                |
+| `server/schedule/`              | Cron-based scheduled agents                                                  |
+| `server/loop-service.ts`        | Looping agent runs that retry until an exit condition                        |
+| `server/chat/`                  | Chat rooms for agent-to-agent and human-to-agent messaging                   |
+
+### `packages/protocol` — Wire schemas and shared protocol types
+
+The source of truth for WebSocket messages, binary frame codecs, endpoint parsing,
+agent timeline types, provider config schemas, and other values shared by daemon
+and clients. Server, app, CLI, and `@getpaseo/client` all depend on this package;
+it does not depend on the server.
+
+### `packages/client` — Daemon client library and SDK facade
+
+Owns the low-level daemon WebSocket driver plus the higher-level `PaseoClient`
+facade. App and CLI may import the low-level driver from
+`@getpaseo/client/internal/daemon-client` during migration, while new SDK-shaped
+code imports from `@getpaseo/client`.
+
+### `packages/app` — Mobile + web client (Expo)
+
+Cross-platform React Native app that connects to one or more daemons.
+
+- Expo Router navigation (`/h/[serverId]/workspace/[workspaceId]`, `/h/[serverId]/agent/[agentId]`, etc.)
+- `HostRuntimeController` manages saved host connections, reconnection, and per-host runtime state
+- `SessionContext` wraps the daemon client for the active session
+- Composer UI and submit/draft behavior live in `packages/app/src/composer/`; screens and panels should integrate it from there instead of dropping composer internals into `components/`, `hooks/`, or `screens/workspace/`
+- Timeline reducers in `timeline/session-stream-reducers.ts` handle compaction, gap detection, sequence-based deduplication
+- Timeline sync correctness is documented in [docs/timeline-sync.md](timeline-sync.md): live streams are for immediacy, `fetch_agent_timeline_request` is authoritative, and catch-up is paged but complete.
+- Voice features: dictation (STT) and voice agent (realtime)
+
+### `packages/cli` — Command-line client
+
+Commander.js CLI with Docker-style commands. Common agent operations are also exposed at the top level (e.g. `paseo ls`, `paseo run`).
+
+- `paseo agent ls/run/import/attach/logs/stop/delete/send/inspect/wait/archive/reload/update/mode`
+- `paseo daemon start/stop/restart/status/pair/set-password`
+- `paseo chat ls/create/inspect/post/read/wait/delete`
+- `paseo terminal ls/create/capture/send-keys/kill`
+- `paseo loop run/ls/inspect/logs/stop`
+- `paseo schedule create/ls/inspect/update/pause/resume/run-once/logs/delete`
+- `paseo permit allow/deny/ls`
+- `paseo provider ls/models`
+- `paseo worktree create/ls/archive`
+- `paseo speech …`
+
+Communicates with the daemon via the same WebSocket protocol as the app.
+
+### `packages/relay` — E2E encrypted relay
+

+- Self-hosted relays opt into TLS with `daemon.relay.useTls` or `PASEO_RELAY_USE_TLS=true`; the public (client-facing) TLS setting can be overridden independently via `daemon.relay.publicUseTls` or `PASEO_RELAY_PUBLIC_USE_TLS`

+
+**Multi-window (hybrid land-on model).** `createWindow()` in `main.ts` is reusable: `⌘⇧N`/File→New Window, relaunching the app (`second-instance`), and the sidebar "Open in new window" action each open a fresh `BrowserWindow`. Every window shows the full sidebar — there is no per-window project ownership or filtering. "Land on a project" is delivered by a per-`webContents` `PendingOpenProjectStore`: each window pulls its own pending project path on mount (`paseo:get-pending-open-project`) and runs the normal open-project flow, identical to a CLI `paseo <path>` launch.
+
+> **Window-state v1 limitation:** only the _first_ window of a session restores and persists saved geometry (size/position/maximized). Windows opened via ⌘⇧N / second-instance / "Open in new window" open at the default size, OS-cascaded, and do not persist — this avoids every window stacking on the same restored bounds and fighting over the single window-state store. Lifting this needs per-window state keys.
+>
+> **In-app browser panes are not yet per-window.** The active-browser id (`features/browser-webviews.ts`) and the webview registration queue (`pendingBrowserWebviewIds` in `main.ts`) are process-global. With browser panes open in two windows, a menu Reload can target the other window's webview, and near-simultaneous webview attach across windows can register under the wrong browser id. Multi-window v1 ships windows; making the browser-webview subsystem window-scoped is a follow-up.

+
+## WebSocket protocol
+
+All clients speak the same WebSocket protocol over a single connection that mixes JSON text frames and a small binary framing for terminal streams. Schemas live in `packages/protocol/src/messages.ts`.
+
+**Handshake:**
+
+```
+Client → Server:  WSHelloMessage {
+                    type: "hello",
+                    clientId,
+                    clientType: "mobile" | "browser" | "cli" | "mcp",
+                    protocolVersion,
+                    appVersion?,
+                    capabilities?: { voice?, pushNotifications?, ... },
+                  }
+Server → Client:  status message with payload { status: "server_info",
+                    serverId, hostname, version, capabilities?, features }
+```
+
+There is no dedicated welcome message; the server emits a `status` session message after accepting the hello, then begins streaming. The session stores client capabilities from the hello and rehydrates them on reconnect, so the wire boundary can ask one question: `session.supports(...)`.
+
+**Top-level WS envelopes** are `hello`, `recording_state`, `ping`/`pong`, and `session` (which wraps the rich union of session messages).
+
+Client liveness checks use the top-level JSON `ping`/`pong` envelope, not a session RPC and not RFC6455 protocol ping. The app runs through browser and React Native WebSocket APIs, which do not expose protocol ping, so this envelope is the portable way to test the direct or relay data path. Session RPC timeouts are operation failures and must not be treated as proof that the socket is dead.
+
+New session RPCs use dotted names with `.request` and `.response` suffixes, such as `checkout.github.set_auto_merge.request` and `checkout.github.set_auto_merge.response`. See [rpc-namespacing.md](rpc-namespacing.md) for the convention and migration rules for older flat RPC names.
+
+**Notable session message types:**
+
+- `agent_update` — Agent state changed (status, title, labels)
+- `agent_stream` — New timeline event from a running agent
+- `workspace_update`, `script_status_update`, `workspace_setup_progress` — Workspace state
+- `agent_permission_request` / `agent_permission_resolved` — Tool-call permission flow
+- `agent_deleted`, `agent_archived`, `agent_status`, `agent_list`
+- `checkout_status_update`, `checkout_diff_update`, and the full `checkout_*` request/response set for git operations
+- Terminal subscribe/input/capture commands
+- Voice/dictation streaming events (`dictation_stream_*`, `assistant_chunk`, `audio_output`, `transcription_result`)
+- Request/response pairs for fetch, list, create, etc., correlated by `requestId`; failures use `rpc_error`
+
+**Binary frames (terminal stream protocol):**
+
+Terminal I/O is sent as binary WebSocket frames decoded by `decodeTerminalStreamFrame` in `shared/binary-frames/terminal.ts`. The layout is:
+
+- 1-byte opcode: `Output (0x01)`, `Input (0x02)`, `Resize (0x03)`, `Snapshot (0x04)`
+- 1-byte slot: terminal slot id
+- variable payload: bytes for output/input, JSON-encoded `{ rows, cols }` for resize, terminal snapshot for snapshot
+
+Terminal PTY size is last-interacting-client-wins. A client claims the PTY size only when its terminal viewport genuinely changes size or the user focuses/taps the terminal. Passive rendering work — attaching, restoring visibility, font settling, renderer refits, or just looking at a visible terminal — must not send a resize frame. The server does not broadcast resize ownership; the resized PTY redraws through normal output, and every attached client renders that output in its own local viewport.
+
+There is also a separate file-transfer binary frame format in the same directory, used for download/upload streams.
+
+### Compatibility rules
+
+- WebSocket schemas are append-only. Add fields, do not remove fields, and never make optional fields required.
+- New wire enum values must be gated at serialization with `session.supports(CLIENT_CAPS.someCapability)`.
+- `Session` stores client capabilities from the `hello` handshake and rehydrates them on reconnect, so the wire boundary can ask one question: `session.supports(...)`.
+
+Example: adding a new enum value
+
+```ts
+// 1. Add CLIENT_CAPS.newThing = "new_thing"
+// 2. Let new clients advertise it in WS hello
+// 3. Keep the shared producer schema strict
+// 4. Gate the new emitted value: session.supports(CLIENT_CAPS.newThing) ? "new_value" : "old_value"
+```
+
+## Agent lifecycle
+
+The lifecycle states are defined in `shared/agent-lifecycle.ts`:
+
+```
+initializing → idle ⇄ running
+        ↓       ↓        ↓
+              error
+                ↓
+              closed
+```
+
+- `initializing` — provider session is being created
+- `idle` — has a live session, awaiting the next prompt
+- `running` — provider is currently producing a turn
+- `error` — last attempt failed; session is still attached
+- `closed` — terminal state, no live session
+
+`ManagedAgent` is a discriminated union over those lifecycle tags. Notes:
+
+- **AgentManager** is the source of truth for agent state and broadcasts updates to all subscribers
+- Timeline is append-only with epochs (each run starts a new epoch). Storage uses sequence numbers for client-side dedup; the default fetch page is 200 items
+- Timeline row `timestamp` values are canonical daemon-owned timestamps. Providers may supply original replay timestamps, but clients must not guess timestamp trust or hide time UI based on local clock heuristics.
+- Events stream to connected clients in real time; correctness is backed by authoritative timeline fetches and paged-to-completion catch-up.
+- Agent state persists to `$PASEO_HOME/agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json` (timeline rows live alongside the record)
+
+## Agent providers
+
+Each provider implements the `AgentClient` interface in `agent/agent-sdk-types.ts`. Provider implementations live in `agent/providers/`.
+
+The built-in, user-facing providers are Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, OpenCode, Pi, and OMP. Additional adapters exist in the same directory for ACP-compatible agents and internal use:
+
+| Provider           | Wraps                                | Session format                                     |
+| ------------------ | ------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
+| Claude (`claude/`) | Anthropic Agent SDK                  | `~/.claude/projects/{cwd}/{session-id}.jsonl`      |
+| Codex              | Codex AppServer (`codex-app-server`) | `~/.codex/sessions/{date}/rollout-{ts}-{id}.jsonl` |
+| Copilot            | GitHub Copilot via ACP               | Provider-managed                                   |
+| OpenCode           | OpenCode server / CLI                | Provider-managed                                   |
+| Cursor             | ACP wrapper (`acp-agent`)            | Provider-managed                                   |
+| Generic ACP        | ACP wrapper                          | Provider-managed                                   |
+| Pi                 | Local Pi RPC process                 | Provider-managed                                   |
+| Mock load test     | In-process fake                      | In-memory                                          |
+
+All providers:
+
+- Handle their own authentication (Paseo does not manage API keys)
+- Support session resume via persistence handles
+- Map tool calls to a normalized `ToolCallDetail` type
+- Expose provider-specific modes (plan, default, full-access)
+
+## Data flow: running an agent
+
+1. Client sends `CreateAgentRequestMessage` with config (prompt, cwd, provider, model, mode)
+2. Session routes to `AgentManager.create()`
+3. AgentManager creates a `ManagedAgent`, initializes provider session
+4. Provider runs the agent → emits `AgentStreamEvent` items
+5. Events append to the agent timeline, broadcast to all subscribed clients
+6. Tool calls are normalized to `ToolCallDetail` (shell, read, edit, write, search, etc.)
+7. Permission requests flow: agent → server → client → user decision → server → agent
+
+## Storage
+
+`$PASEO_HOME` defaults to `~/.paseo`. The most important files:
+
+```
+$PASEO_HOME/
+├── agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json   # Agent record + persisted timeline rows
+├── projects/projects.json                      # Project registry

+```
+
+## Deployment models
+
+1. **Local daemon** (default): `paseo daemon start` on `127.0.0.1:6767`
+2. **Managed desktop**: Electron app spawns daemon as subprocess
+3. **Remote + relay**: Daemon behind firewall, relay bridges with E2E encryption

+# Coding Standards
+
+The core instinct: AI-generated code hedges — it covers every case, layers over instead of cutting in, scatters uncertainty everywhere, wraps in case. A senior engineer commits — to a shape, a boundary, a name, a happy path, a type — and lets everything else fall into place. Every rule below catches a different form of indecision.
+
+For testing rules, see [testing.md](testing.md).
+
+## Core principles
+
+- **Zero complexity budget** — every abstraction must justify itself with a specific, current benefit.
+- **YAGNI** — build features and abstractions only when needed. A function called once is indirection, not abstraction.
+- **No "while I'm at it" cleanups** — make the change you came for. Drive-by edits hide in the diff.
+- **Functional and declarative** over object-oriented.
+- **`function` declarations** over arrow function assignments.
+- **`interface`** over `type` when both work.
+- **No `index.ts` barrel files** that only re-export — they create indirection and circular-dep risk. Import from the source.
+
+## Comments and noise
+
+- Delete any comment where removing it loses zero information. Comments explain _why_, not _what_.
+- No tutorial comments explaining language features (`// Use destructuring to...`).
+- No decorative section dividers (`// ===== Helpers =====`). Use files and modules to organize, not ASCII art.
+- No hedging comments (`// might need to revisit`, `// should work for most cases`). If you're unsure, investigate.
+- No commented-out code. Git remembers.
+- No `console.log` / `debugger` left behind. No `TODO: implement` stubs — if it needs to exist, write it.
+
+## Confidence: commit to a shape
+
+- Validate at boundaries (network, IPC, user input, file I/O), trust types internally. After the parse, the value is what its type says.
+- Every `?.` and `??` past the validation boundary is unconfident code — either the boundary should resolve it, or the type should reflect reality.
+- No defensive checks for conditions the type system already rules out (`if (!agent) return` on a non-nullable parameter).
+- No `try/catch` "just in case." If you can't say what you're catching and why, don't catch.
+- Optionality is a design decision, not a migration shortcut. Distinct valid states → discriminated union. Intentionally empty → explicit `null`. Keep optionality at real boundaries.
+
+## Types
+
+- No `any`. No `as` casts to bypass errors. No `@ts-ignore` / `@ts-expect-error`. Narrow with `if` / schema validation; let the compiler check harder, not less.
+- If a Zod schema exists, the TypeScript type is `z.infer<typeof schema>`. Never hand-write a parallel type.
+- One canonical type per concept. Layer-specific views are `Pick` / `Omit`, not duplicated fields.
+- Name multi-property object shapes — no inline `Array<{ ... }>` or `Promise<{ ... }>` in signatures, returns, or generic args.
+- Use string literal unions, not raw `string`, when the value is one of a known set. Catches typos at compile time.
+- Object parameters past the obvious-name threshold: 3+ args, any boolean arg, any optional arg → object. `(thing, true, false, true)` is unreadable at the call site.
+- Make impossible states impossible — discriminated unions over `{ isLoading; error?; data? }` bags.
+
+## Errors
+
+- Throw typed error classes that carry the fields a caller would want to read. Plain `Error("Provider X not found")` collapses structured info into a string.
+- Catch blocks branch on `instanceof` for what they can handle; rethrow the rest. No `catch (e) { return null }`.
+- Separate user-facing copy from log/debug strings — don't make one string serve telemetry, logs, and the UI.
+- Fail explicitly. If the caller asked for X and X isn't available, throw — don't silently substitute Y.
+
+## Density
+
+- Nested ternaries are forbidden. A single ternary is fine only when both branches are a single identifier or trivial access (`x ? a : b`).
+- Boolean expressions with 2+ clauses or mixed concerns → name the conditions.
+- Object literals assemble pre-computed values; don't pack branching and lookups into property positions.
+- Operations wrapping operations (`Object.fromEntries(arr.filter(...).map(...))`, `Math.max(...xs.map(...))`) → break into named intermediates.
+- Max 3 levels of nesting (callbacks, JSX, control flow). Above that, extract.
+
+## Structure and modules
+
+- A directory is a module, not a namespace. One intentional public surface; internal files stay internal.
+- Path is part of the name — prefer `provider/registry.ts` over `provider/provider-registry.ts`. If the filename has to do double duty, deepen the path.
+- Filenames ending in `-utils`, `-helpers`, `-manager`, `-handler`, `-controller`, `-formatter`, `-builder` are a smell — the path didn't carry enough domain.
+- Boundary returns answer the caller's question (`getActiveAgents()`), not "here's my storage" (`getAgents().filter(...)` repeated everywhere).
+- One adapter means a hypothetical seam; two adapters means a real one. Don't define a port until something actually varies across it.
+- Pass-through modules fail the deletion test — if removing the module makes callers go straight to what they wanted, delete it.
+- Centralize policy. The same discriminator (`plan`, `provider`, `kind`, `status`) branched in 3+ files → policy table, not another `else if` per case.
+- New features get a home before implementation. A feature smeared across 5 shared files is the same slop as a flat-peer namespace.
+- Don't drop new files at the nearest root just because placement is unclear — say so and ask.
+
+## Refactoring is a bolt-on test
+
+- A change should look like a thoughtful edit to existing code, not a new layer next to it. New coordinator wrapping a coordinator, new flag bypassing the normal path, new helper duplicating an existing selector — stop and reshape instead.
+- Refactors preserve behavior by default. No removing features to simplify code without explicit approval.
+- Have a verification plan _before_ refactoring — name the invariants, confirm a test holds them, write one if not. See [testing.md](testing.md).
+- Migrate all callers and remove old paths in the same refactor. No fallback behavior unless explicitly designed.
+
+## React
+
+- `useEffect` is for synchronizing with external systems (DOM, network, timers, subscriptions). Not for transforming React state. Derived state → compute in render or `useMemo`.
+- No effect cascades — chains of effects setting state that triggers more effects almost always want React Query or a reducer.
+- `useRef` is for DOM refs and non-rendering identities (timer IDs, AbortController, latest-callback caches). If the value affects what renders next, it's state — model it explicitly with `useReducer` and a discriminated union.
+- Server state goes through React Query. Manual `useState` + `useEffect` + `isLoading` + `error` for fetched data is always worse.
+- Components render and dispatch — they don't compute transitions. Two-plus interacting `useState`s → extract a reducer.
+- Never define components inside other components. Module-scope only.
+- Subscribe narrowly: select primitives from stores, pass `status` not `agent`, use `useShallow` / deep-equal when returning derived arrays/objects.
+- Stable references for props that cross `memo` boundaries or feed dependency arrays. Static literals at module scope `as const`; derived with `useMemo`; handlers with `useCallback` only when there's a memoized beneficiary.
+- Use stable ids for `key`, never array index for reorderable/filterable lists.
+- Context for stable values (theme, auth). Store with selectors for state that changes.
+
+## Naming
+
+- Names describe meaning, not mechanics. `submitForm` over `handleOnClickButtonSubmit`. `running` over `filteredArrayOfRunningAgents`.
+- The right length is the shortest unambiguous in context. Inside `AgentManager`, methods are `start`, `stop`, `list`.
+- Match the surrounding code's vocabulary. If the codebase uses `getX`, don't introduce `fetchX` / `retrieveX` for the same shape.
+- Don't leak implementation into names — `getAgent`, not `queryPostgresForAgent`. If swapping the impl would force a rename, the name is wrong.
+- Booleans read as yes/no questions: `isX`, `hasX`, `canX`. Avoid negative booleans (`isNotConnected`).
+- `data`, `result`, `info`, `manager`, `temp` are smells — say what the thing _is_.

+# Custom Provider Configuration
+
+Paseo supports configuring custom agent providers through `config.json` (located at `$PASEO_HOME/config.json`, typically `~/.paseo/config.json`). You can extend built-in providers with different API backends, add ACP-compatible agents, set custom binaries, disable providers, and create multiple profiles for the same underlying provider.
+
+All provider configuration lives under `agents.providers` in config.json:
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": 1,
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "provider-id": { ... }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Provider IDs must be lowercase alphanumeric with hyphens (`/^[a-z][a-z0-9-]*$/`).

+
+## Extending a built-in provider
+
+Use `extends` to create a new provider entry that inherits from a built-in provider (claude, codex, copilot, opencode, pi, omp). The new provider gets its own entry in the provider list, with its own label, environment, and model definitions.
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-claude": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "My Claude",
+        "description": "Claude with custom API endpoint",
+        "env": {
+          "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "sk-ant-...",
+          "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://my-proxy.example.com/v1"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Required fields for custom providers:
+
+- `extends` — which built-in provider to inherit from (or `"acp"`)
+- `label` — display name in the UI
+
+See [Codex with a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint](#codex-with-a-custom-openai-compatible-endpoint) below for the dedicated Codex example.
+

+
+## Z.AI (Zhipu) coding plan
+
+[Z.AI](https://z.ai) is a Chinese AI company (Zhipu AI) that offers an Anthropic-compatible API endpoint. Their GLM Coding Plan provides flat-rate access to GLM models through Claude Code's Anthropic API protocol. These are **not** Anthropic Claude models — they are Zhipu's own GLM models exposed through an Anthropic-compatible API.
+
+### Setup
+
+1. Register at [z.ai](https://z.ai) and subscribe to a coding plan
+2. Create an API key from the Z.AI dashboard
+3. Add a provider entry in config.json:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "zai": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "ZAI",
+        "env": {
+          "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "<your-zai-api-key>",
+          "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://api.z.ai/api/anthropic",
+          "API_TIMEOUT_MS": "3000000"
+        },
+        "disallowedTools": ["WebSearch"],
+        "models": [
+          { "id": "glm-4.5-air", "label": "GLM 4.5 Air" },
+          { "id": "glm-5-turbo", "label": "GLM 5 Turbo", "isDefault": true },
+          { "id": "glm-5.1", "label": "GLM 5.1" }
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Available models
+
+| Model         | Tier                |
+| ------------- | ------------------- |
+| `glm-5.1`     | Advanced (flagship) |
+| `glm-5-turbo` | Advanced            |
+| `glm-4.7`     | Standard            |
+| `glm-4.5-air` | Lightweight         |
+
+### Notes
+
+- `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN` is used instead of `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` — this is the z.ai API key
+- The `API_TIMEOUT_MS` env var extends the request timeout (z.ai can be slower than direct Anthropic)
+- If you get auth errors, run `/logout` inside Claude Code before switching to the z.ai provider
+- Web search (`WebSearch` tool) is an Anthropic-only server-side feature — third-party endpoints don't support it. Add `"disallowedTools": ["WebSearch"]` to avoid errors.
+- Automated setup is also available: `npx @z_ai/coding-helper`
+- Official docs: [docs.z.ai/devpack/tool/claude](https://docs.z.ai/devpack/tool/claude)

+## Alibaba Cloud (Qwen) coding plan
+
+[Alibaba Cloud Model Studio](https://www.alibabacloud.com/en/campaign/ai-scene-coding) offers a coding plan that routes Claude Code requests to Qwen models through an Anthropic-compatible API. Like z.ai, these are **not** Anthropic Claude models.
+
+### Setup
+
+1. Go to the [Coding Plan page](https://modelstudio.console.alibabacloud.com/ap-southeast-1/?tab=globalset#/efm/coding_plan) on Alibaba Cloud Model Studio (Singapore region)
+2. Subscribe to the Pro plan ($50/month)
+3. Obtain your plan-specific API key (format: `sk-sp-xxxxx`) — this is different from a standard Model Studio key
+4. Add a provider entry in config.json:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {

+
+## Codex with a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint
+
+Codex talks to OpenAI's Responses API by default. Custom providers that extend `"codex"` can point Codex at any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (OpenRouter, LiteLLM, vLLM, llama.cpp server, an internal gateway, etc.) by setting `OPENAI_BASE_URL` and `OPENAI_API_KEY` in the provider `env`.
+
+Paseo passes those variables through to the Codex app-server process **and** maps them into Codex's thread config under `model_provider` / `model_providers`, because Codex reads provider routing from config rather than from `OPENAI_BASE_URL` alone.
+
+### Setup
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-codex": {
+        "extends": "codex",
+        "label": "My Codex",
+        "description": "Codex via custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint",
+        "env": {
+          "OPENAI_API_KEY": "sk-...",
+          "OPENAI_BASE_URL": "https://custom-relay.example.com"
+        },
+        "models": [{ "id": "custom-model", "label": "Custom Model", "isDefault": true }]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### What Paseo wires up
+
+Under the hood, for each custom Codex provider Paseo injects this into Codex's config:
+
+```toml
+model_provider = "my-codex"
+
+[model_providers.my-codex]
+name = "My Codex"
+base_url = "https://custom-relay.example.com/v1"
+wire_api = "responses"
+env_key = "OPENAI_API_KEY"
+requires_openai_auth = false
+```
+
+- `base_url` — taken from `OPENAI_BASE_URL`. If it does not already end in `/v1`, Paseo appends `/v1`. Trailing slashes are stripped.
+- `wire_api` — always `"responses"` (OpenAI Responses API protocol).
+- `env_key` — set to `"OPENAI_API_KEY"` when that env var is present and non-empty, so Codex reads the key from the same env var Paseo passes through.
+- `requires_openai_auth` — forced to `false` when `OPENAI_API_KEY` is provided, so Codex skips its built-in OpenAI login flow.
+
+### Notes
+
+- The endpoint must speak the OpenAI **Responses API**, not just chat completions. Many gateways (OpenRouter, LiteLLM) support both — pick the Responses-compatible route.
+- Set `models` explicitly. Custom endpoints expose their own model IDs (`anthropic/claude-opus-4-7`, `qwen/qwen3-coder`, `local/llama`, etc.), and Paseo does not discover them automatically for Codex.
+- To run multiple endpoints side-by-side, define multiple entries that each extend `"codex"` with different IDs, labels, and env. Each appears as its own provider in the app.
+- If you only want to override the binary (e.g. a nightly Codex build) without changing the endpoint, omit `OPENAI_BASE_URL` and use `command` instead — see [Custom binary for a provider](#custom-binary-for-a-provider).
+
+---
+
+## Multiple profiles for the same provider
+
+You can create multiple entries that extend the same built-in provider. Each gets its own entry in the provider list with independent credentials, models, and environment.
+
+Example: two different Anthropic accounts as separate profiles:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "claude-work": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "Claude (Work)",
+        "description": "Work Anthropic account",
+        "env": {
+          "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "sk-ant-work-..."
+        }
+      },
+      "claude-personal": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "Claude (Personal)",
+        "description": "Personal Anthropic account",
+        "env": {
+          "ANTHROPIC_API_KEY": "sk-ant-personal-..."
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Each profile appears as a separate provider in the Paseo app. You can select which one to use when launching an agent.
+
+You can also combine profiles with model overrides to pin specific models per profile:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "claude-fast": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "Claude (Fast)",
+        "models": [{ "id": "claude-sonnet-4-6", "label": "Sonnet 4.6", "isDefault": true }]
+      },
+      "claude-smart": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "Claude (Smart)",
+        "models": [{ "id": "claude-opus-4-6", "label": "Opus 4.6", "isDefault": true }]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Custom binary for a provider
+
+Override the command used to launch any provider with the `command` field. This is an array where the first element is the binary and the rest are arguments.
+
+### Override a built-in provider's binary
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "claude": {
+        "command": ["/opt/claude-nightly/claude"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Use a custom wrapper script
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "claude": {
+        "command": ["/usr/local/bin/my-claude-wrapper", "--verbose"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Custom binary on a derived provider
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-codex": {
+        "extends": "codex",
+        "label": "Codex (Custom Build)",
+        "command": ["/home/user/codex-dev/target/release/codex"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The `command` array completely replaces the default command for that provider. The binary must exist on the system — Paseo checks for its availability and will mark the provider as unavailable if not found.
+
+### Pi-compatible forks with their own session directory
+
+OMP already ships as a built-in provider option. It is disabled by default; enable it with:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "omp": { "enabled": true }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+For other providers that keep Pi's `--mode rpc` API but write sessions somewhere else, extend `pi`, replace the command, and provide the JSONL session directory:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-pi-fork": {
+        "extends": "pi",
+        "label": "My Pi Fork",
+        "command": ["my-pi-fork"],
+        "params": {
+          "sessionDir": "~/.my-pi-fork/sessions"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The session directory is used only for importing sessions that were started outside Paseo. Launching and resuming still go through the configured command, so this example resumes with `my-pi-fork --mode rpc --session <session-file>`.
+
+---
+
+## Disabling a provider
+
+Set `enabled: false` to hide a provider from the provider list. The provider will not appear in the app or CLI.
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "copilot": { "enabled": false },
+      "codex": { "enabled": false }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+This works for both built-in and custom providers. To re-enable, set `enabled: true` or remove the `enabled` field entirely. Most providers are enabled by default; OMP is intentionally disabled by default and requires `enabled: true`.
+
+---
+
+## ACP providers
+
+The [Agent Client Protocol (ACP)](https://agentclientprotocol.com) is an open standard for communication between editors and AI coding agents — think LSP but for AI agents. Any agent that supports ACP can be added to Paseo as a custom provider.
+
+ACP agents communicate over JSON-RPC 2.0 on stdio. Paseo spawns the agent process and talks to it through stdin/stdout.
+
+Paseo also ships an in-app ACP provider catalog for common agents, including CodeWhale, Cursor, DeepAgents, DimCode, Gemini CLI, Hermes, Qwen Code, and Kimi Code. Catalog entries create the same `extends: "acp"` provider config shown below.
+
+### Adding a generic ACP provider
+
+Set `extends: "acp"` and provide a `command`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-agent": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "My Agent",
+        "command": ["my-agent-binary", "--acp"],
+        "env": {
+          "MY_API_KEY": "..."
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Required fields for ACP providers:
+
+- `extends: "acp"`
+- `label`
+- `command` — the command to spawn the agent process (must support ACP over stdio)
+
+By default, Paseo injects its internal MCP server into ACP providers so agents can use Paseo tools such as subagent creation. Some ACP adapters cannot create sessions when `mcpServers` is non-empty. Disable injected MCP for those providers with `params.supportsMcpServers: false`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-agent": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "My Agent",
+        "command": ["my-agent", "acp"],
+        "params": {
+          "supportsMcpServers": false
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Generic ACP diagnostics
+
+Paseo diagnostics for `extends: "acp"` providers report the configured command, resolved launcher binary, version output, ACP `initialize`, ACP `session/new`, model count, modes, and final status.
+
+For package-runner commands such as `npx -y @google/gemini-cli --acp`, the version probe keeps the package spec and runs `npx -y @google/gemini-cli --version`. This diagnoses the actual agent package instead of only proving that `npx` exists.
+
+ACP probes use short timeouts and browser-suppression environment variables so agents that enter an auth/browser flow fail as a diagnostic error instead of hanging the provider screen.
+
+### Example: Google Gemini CLI
+
+[Gemini CLI](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli) supports ACP via the `--acp` flag.
+
+1. Install: `npm install -g @google/gemini-cli` or see [Gemini CLI docs](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli)
+2. Authenticate with Google (Gemini CLI handles its own auth)
+3. Add to config.json:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "gemini": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "Google Gemini",
+        "command": ["gemini", "--acp"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Ref: [Gemini CLI ACP mode docs](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/main/docs/cli/acp-mode.md)
+
+### Example: Hermes (Nous Research)
+
+[Hermes](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent) is an open-source coding agent by Nous Research with persistent memory and multi-provider LLM support. It supports ACP via the `acp` subcommand.
+
+1. Install: `curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash`
+2. Install ACP support: `pip install -e '.[acp]'`
+3. Configure Hermes credentials in `~/.hermes/`
+4. Add to config.json:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "hermes": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "Hermes",
+        "description": "Nous Research self-improving AI agent",
+        "command": ["hermes", "acp"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Ref: [Hermes ACP docs](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/features/acp)
+
+### How ACP providers work in Paseo
+
+When you launch an agent with an ACP provider:
+
+1. Paseo spawns the process using the configured `command`
+2. Sends an `initialize` JSON-RPC request over stdin
+3. The agent responds with its capabilities, available modes, and models
+4. Paseo creates a session and sends prompts through the ACP protocol
+5. The agent streams responses, tool calls, and permission requests back over stdout
+
+Models and modes are discovered dynamically at runtime from the agent process. If you want to override the model list (e.g., to curate which models appear in the UI), use the `models` field:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-agent": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "My Agent",
+        "command": ["my-agent", "--acp"],
+        "models": [
+          { "id": "fast-model", "label": "Fast", "isDefault": true },
+          { "id": "smart-model", "label": "Smart" }
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Profile models (defined in config.json) completely replace runtime-discovered models when present.
+
+If you want to keep runtime-discovered models and add or relabel a few entries, use `additionalModels` instead.
+
+Example: add an experimental model while keeping every model the provider discovers at runtime:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-agent": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "My Agent",
+        "command": ["my-agent", "--acp"],
+        "additionalModels": [
+          { "id": "experimental-model", "label": "Experimental", "isDefault": true }
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Example: relabel a discovered model without replacing the full list:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-agent": {
+        "extends": "acp",
+        "label": "My Agent",
+        "command": ["my-agent", "--acp"],
+        "additionalModels": [{ "id": "provider/model-id", "label": "My Preferred Label" }]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+When an `additionalModels` entry has the same `id` as a discovered model, it updates that model in place.
+
+---
+
+## Provider override reference
+
+Every entry under `agents.providers` accepts these fields:
+
+| Field              | Type                      | Required          | Description                                                        |
+| ------------------ | ------------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `extends`          | `string`                  | Yes (custom only) | Built-in provider ID to inherit from, or `"acp"`                   |
+| `label`            | `string`                  | Yes (custom only) | Display name in the UI                                             |
+| `description`      | `string`                  | No                | Short description shown in the UI                                  |
+| `command`          | `string[]`                | Yes (ACP only)    | Command to spawn the agent process                                 |
+| `env`              | `Record<string, string>`  | No                | Environment variables to set for the agent process                 |
+| `params`           | `Record<string, unknown>` | No                | Provider-specific options such as `supportsMcpServers: false`      |
+| `models`           | `ProviderProfileModel[]`  | No                | Static model list (overrides runtime discovery)                    |
+| `additionalModels` | `ProviderProfileModel[]`  | No                | Static model additions (merged with runtime discovery or `models`) |
+| `disallowedTools`  | `string[]`                | No                | Tool names to disable for this provider (e.g. `["WebSearch"]`)     |
+| `enabled`          | `boolean`                 | No                | Set to `false` to hide the provider (default: `true`)              |
+| `order`            | `number`                  | No                | Sort order in the provider list                                    |
+
+### Model definition
+
+Each entry in the `models` array:
+
+| Field             | Type               | Required | Description                           |
+| ----------------- | ------------------ | -------- | ------------------------------------- |
+| `id`              | `string`           | Yes      | Model identifier sent to the provider |
+| `label`           | `string`           | Yes      | Display name in the UI                |
+| `description`     | `string`           | No       | Short description                     |
+| `isDefault`       | `boolean`          | No       | Mark as the default model selection   |
+| `thinkingOptions` | `ThinkingOption[]` | No       | Available thinking/reasoning levels   |
+
+### Thinking option
+
+| Field         | Type      | Required | Description                         |
+| ------------- | --------- | -------- | ----------------------------------- |
+| `id`          | `string`  | Yes      | Thinking option identifier          |
+| `label`       | `string`  | Yes      | Display name                        |
+| `description` | `string`  | No       | Short description                   |
+| `isDefault`   | `boolean` | No       | Mark as the default thinking option |
+
+### Claude settings.json model discovery
+
+The built-in `claude` provider appends concrete model IDs from `~/.claude/settings.json` to its first-party Claude model list. Paseo reads the top-level `model` field and these `env` keys: `ANTHROPIC_MODEL`, `ANTHROPIC_SMALL_FAST_MODEL`, `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL`, `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL`, and `ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL`.
+
+This lets users who already configured Claude Code for Bedrock, OpenRouter, ollama, Z.AI, or another Anthropic-compatible gateway select the exact model ID in Paseo. When `agents.providers.claude.models` is set it **replaces** both the hardcoded first-party Claude list and any settings.json-discovered entries; use `agents.providers.claude.additionalModels` to keep the first-party list and append curated entries on top.
+
+### Gotcha: `extends: "claude"` with third-party endpoints
+
+When a custom provider extends `"claude"` but points `ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL` at a non-Anthropic API (Z.AI, Alibaba/Qwen, proxies), the Claude Agent SDK may try to use Anthropic-only server-side tools like `WebSearch`. Third-party APIs don't support these tools, causing errors.
+
+Use `disallowedTools` to disable unsupported tools:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "providers": {
+      "my-proxy": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "My Proxy",
+        "env": {
+          "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://my-proxy.example.com/v1"
+        },
+        "disallowedTools": ["WebSearch"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}

+# Data Model
+
+Paseo uses **file-based JSON persistence** instead of a traditional database. All data is validated at runtime with Zod schemas. Most stores write atomically (write to temp file, then rename); a few still use plain `writeFile` — see each section. There is no schema-versioning/migration framework — schemas rely on optional fields with defaults for forward compatibility, with a small amount of inline normalization in `persisted-config.ts` for legacy provider/speech entries.
+
+All server-side stores live under `$PASEO_HOME` (defaults to `~/.paseo`).
+

+
+The `agents/{sanitized-cwd}/` directory name is derived from the agent's `cwd` by stripping the filesystem root and replacing path separators with `-` (Windows drive letters become a `C-` style prefix). Persistent server stores write atomically by writing a temp file in the target directory and then renaming it into place.

+
+`agents.metadataGeneration.providers` controls the preferred structured-generation fallback order for daemon-side metadata tasks such as commit messages, PR text, branch names, and generated agent titles. Entries are tried first in the configured order, then Paseo falls through to dynamically discovered defaults and finally the current selection when available.
+
+Local speech model ids are intentionally narrow: STT uses `parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v2-int8`, TTS uses `kokoro-en-v0_19`, and turn detection uses the bundled Silero VAD model.

+| `archivedAt`  | `string \| null` (ISO 8601) | Soft-delete timestamp; required nullable |
+
+Active git projects are unique by normalized `rootPath`. Startup reconciliation repairs older bad
+states by moving workspaces from duplicate path-keyed projects onto the canonical project,
+preferring remote-keyed project IDs such as `remote:github.com/owner/repo`, then archiving the
+emptied duplicate.

+
+## 7. Workspace Registry
+
+**Path:** `$PASEO_HOME/projects/workspaces.json`
+
+Array of workspace records. A workspace is a specific working directory within a project.
+
+| Field         | Type                                            | Description                    |

+## 8. Push Token Store
+
+**Path:** `$PASEO_HOME/push-tokens.json`
+
+```json
+{
+  "tokens": ["ExponentPushToken[...]", ...]
+}
+```
+
+Simple set of Expo push notification tokens. Loaded with permissive parsing (filters non-string entries). Persisted with atomic temp-file rename.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Daemon meta files
+
+These small files are not validated as full Zod schemas but are persisted under `$PASEO_HOME` for daemon identity and runtime coordination.
+
+| Path                  | Format                                                         | Notes                                                                             |

+| `daemon-keypair.json` | `{ v: 2, publicKeyB64, secretKeyB64 }` (libsodium box keypair) | E2EE relay identity. Written with mode `0600`. Regenerated if file is unreadable. |
+| `paseo.pid`           | JSON `{ pid, startedAt, ... }`                                 | PID lock; prevents two daemons sharing one `$PASEO_HOME`.                         |
+| `daemon.log`          | Pino log output                                                | Default location; path/rotation configurable via `log.file` in `config.json`.     |
+
+---
+
+## Client-side stores (App)
+
+These live in React Native `AsyncStorage` or browser `IndexedDB`, not on the daemon filesystem.
+
+### Draft Store
+
+**AsyncStorage key:** `paseo-drafts` (version 2)
+
+```typescript
+{
+  drafts: Record<draftKey, {
+    input: { text: string, images: AttachmentMetadata[] },
+    lifecycle: "active" | "abandoned" | "sent",
+    updatedAt: number,     // epoch ms
+    version: number        // optimistic concurrency
+  }>,
+  createModalDraft: DraftRecord | null
+}
+```
+
+### Attachment Store (Web)
+
+**IndexedDB database:** `paseo-attachment-bytes`, object store: `attachments`
+
+Stores binary attachment blobs keyed by attachment ID.
+
+### AttachmentMetadata
+
+| Field         | Type      | Description                    |
+| ------------- | --------- | ------------------------------ |
+| `id`          | `string`  | Unique attachment ID           |

+
+Tokens — every color, font size, weight, spacing step, radius, icon size — live in `packages/app/src/styles/theme.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Character
+
+Paseo is minimal, spacious, quiet, confident. Whitespace is deliberate. Nothing crowds, nothing decorates, nothing apologizes. A row, a label, a control. That is the bar.
+
+The app is calm so the user's work is not. Every visual decision serves either _act on this_ or _understand this_ — never _look at this_.
+
+Consistency comes from component reuse, not from hand-matching styles across surfaces. A row in the projects list, a row in settings, and a row in a modal are the same component, not three implementations that happen to look alike. When two surfaces do the same semantic thing in two different ways, one of them is wrong.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Component reuse
+
+A semantic element used in three or more places is a primitive. One of a kind is a screen.
+
+Primitives live in `packages/app/src/components/ui/` and `packages/app/src/components/headers/`. Card and row layout live in `packages/app/src/styles/settings.ts`. Section structure lives in `packages/app/src/screens/settings/settings-section.tsx`.
+
+A pressable styled to look like a button is wrong; the button is `<Button>` (`packages/app/src/components/ui/button.tsx`). A bare `<Text>` styled to look like a section header is wrong; the section header is `<SettingsSection>` (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/settings-section.tsx`). A custom `Modal` for a confirmation is wrong; the confirmation is `confirmDialog` (`packages/app/src/utils/confirm-dialog.ts`). A hand-rolled overflow menu is wrong; the menu is `<DropdownMenu>` (`packages/app/src/components/ui/dropdown-menu.tsx`). A hand-rolled status pill is wrong; the pill is `<StatusBadge>` (`packages/app/src/components/ui/status-badge.tsx`).
+
+Before adding a new component, read `components/ui/`. The primitive usually exists.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Hierarchy
+
+Hierarchy is conveyed through weight and color, not size. Most labels, titles, and hints across the app are `fontSize.base` or `fontSize.xs`. The distinction between a row's primary line and its secondary line is `foreground` versus `foregroundMuted`.
+
+Weight has three tiers, applied by role:
+
+- **Screen titles** — the title at the top of a screen — use `<ScreenTitle>` (`packages/app/src/components/headers/screen-title.tsx`), which renders `fontSize.base` at weight `400` on compact and `300` on desktop. Top-of-screen titles are lighter on desktop, not heavier. The workspace screen header follows the same rule (`packages/app/src/screens/workspace/workspace-screen.tsx`).
+- **Structural labels** use `fontWeight.medium`. This applies to section labels above a stack of rows (`packages/app/src/components/agent-list.tsx:519-523`, `packages/app/src/components/keyboard-shortcuts-dialog.tsx:63-67`), form field labels above an input inside a modal (`packages/app/src/components/add-host-modal.tsx:19-23`, `packages/app/src/components/pair-link-modal.tsx:24-28`), the title at the top of a modal/sheet/dialog (`packages/app/src/components/adaptive-modal-sheet.tsx:90-94`, `packages/app/src/components/ui/combobox.tsx:1607-1611`, `packages/app/src/components/welcome-screen.tsx:48-53`), action button labels in tight components such as the sidebar callout actions (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-callout.tsx:218-221`), and inline data emphasis on dense metadata rows (`packages/app/src/components/git-diff-pane.tsx:2322-2327`, `packages/app/src/components/file-explorer-pane.tsx:1115-1122`).
+- **Content** uses `fontWeight.normal`. This applies to settings rows (`packages/app/src/styles/settings.ts`), sidebar primary list-item titles (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx:2680-2686`, `packages/app/src/components/agent-list.tsx:572-578`), `<Button>` text (`packages/app/src/components/ui/button.tsx:80-84`), `<StatusBadge>` text (`packages/app/src/components/ui/status-badge.tsx:56-60`), and `<SidebarCallout>` titles (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-callout.tsx:175-180`).
+
+The rule, condensed: text that _names_ a surface or a group is `medium`. Text that lives _inside_ a surface or a group is `normal`. Top-of-screen titles are `<ScreenTitle>`, which is lighter still.
+
+Foreground is for the thing being acted on: row titles, section headings, the selected sidebar item. `foregroundMuted` is for context: hints, descriptions, secondary metadata, idle sidebar items, placeholders, status text.
+
+Accent is the one CTA per surface. A `<Button variant="default">` filled with `accent` appears at most once on a page. Most pages have zero — settings is mostly toggles and text, the workspace pane is mostly content, the chat composer is the input itself.
+
+Destructive is a color, not a click. Restart-daemon and remove-host are `<Button variant="outline">` in the row trailing slot; the destructive surface only appears inside the `confirmDialog` (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/host-page.tsx:541-547`). Workspace archive opens a confirm dialog before any red appears (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx`). Red appears after the user has indicated intent.
+
+---
+
+## 4. Buttons
+
+The button is `<Button>` (`packages/app/src/components/ui/button.tsx`). It has five variants. Each has one job.
+
+`default` is the one primary action on a surface — filled with `accent`. At most one per page. The primary slot inside an `<AdaptiveModalSheet>` and the highlighted action on the welcome screen are the canonical uses.
+
+`secondary` is the paired action when two actions carry equal weight — filled with `surface3`. The component default is `secondary`, which matches its frequency in the codebase.
+
+`outline` is the low-frequency action that lives on a row — transparent with `borderAccent`. Restart, Remove, Update on host detail (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/host-page.tsx:585-594`).
+
+`ghost` is structural and non-committal — no border, no fill. Back arrows, header toggles, "Load more" footers (`packages/app/src/screens/sessions-screen.tsx:54-63`), more-affordances. Ghost is used when the affordance is part of the chrome, not a decision.
+
+`destructive` is filled with `destructive`. It only appears inside a confirm. The button on the page is `outline`; the destructive button is the confirm button inside the dialog.
+
+Sizes: `xs` for ultra-tight inline triggers. `sm` for any button sitting in a row. `md` is the page default. `lg` is reserved for large standalone CTAs.
+
+A `<Pressable>` wrapping a `<Text>` is a sixth variant. It is wrong. `<Button>` accepts `style`, `textStyle`, `leftIcon`, `disabled`, `size`, and `variant`.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Borders
+
+Borders group, separate, or rarely emphasize.
+
+A logical block of related rows lives inside a card — one border around the whole group. The card primitive is `settingsStyles.card`; the keyboard-shortcuts dialog uses the same shape inline (`packages/app/src/components/keyboard-shortcuts-dialog.tsx:68-73`). The border defines what belongs together.
+
+Rows after the first inside a card carry `settingsStyles.rowBorder` — a single top border. The first row never has one. The same divider pattern appears in the keyboard-shortcuts dialog rows (`packages/app/src/components/keyboard-shortcuts-dialog.tsx:74-83`). Rows do not need their own background to feel separated.
+
+A list that is itself the page content — sidebar items in `sidebar-workspace-list.tsx`, the workspace list, the agent list (`packages/app/src/components/agent-list.tsx`) — uses spacing and surface, not borders, to separate items. Rows-in-a-card is an interior pattern; lists-as-pages are not.
+
+Pane chrome — the workspace pane header, the file-explorer header, the diff pane header — uses a single bottom border to separate the header from the content (`packages/app/src/components/git-diff-pane.tsx:2328-2331`). One border, no shadow.
+
+`borderAccent` is reserved for the outline button. Inputs use `border`. Single-thing borders are wrong; a single bordered element is either a card with one row (use the card) or it does not need a border.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Pickers
+
+Five primitives. The pick is determined by option count, the need to search, and how the picker is anchored.
+
+`<DropdownMenu>` is for a small fixed set anchored to a trigger. Theme picker, kebab menus on workspace and project rows (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx:684-770`), row "more" menus. Items can be async (`status: "pending"`) and can include destructive entries. Under ~10 options where the user knows what they're looking for.
+
+`<Combobox>` is for a large or searchable list. Host switcher in the sidebar footer, model selector in the composer, branch switcher in the workspace header (`packages/app/src/components/branch-switcher.tsx`). The user types to find the option, or the list is long enough to scroll.
+
+`<ContextMenu>` is for right-click and long-press on a target. The row is the trigger; there is no visible affordance. Used for incidental actions on workspace rows in the sidebar (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx`).
+
+`<AdaptiveModalSheet>` is for a focused task. Multi-field forms (`packages/app/src/components/add-host-modal.tsx`, `packages/app/src/components/pair-link-modal.tsx`, `packages/app/src/components/project-picker-modal.tsx`), confirmations with detail, anything that earns a backdrop. Bottom sheet on compact, centered card on desktop. Raw `Modal` is wrong for any of these.
+
+`<AdaptiveModalSheet>` owns compact bottom safe-area padding inside the sheet so the sheet background still reaches the screen bottom. If a sheet's first snap point is shorter than its header, content, and safe-area clearance, raise that snap point rather than moving the sheet container.
+
+`confirmDialog` is for destructive yes/no and imperative confirmation. Promise-based: `await confirmDialog({ destructive: true, ... })`. Anything where a wrong click loses work.
+
+Three themes is `DropdownMenu`. Thirty hosts is `Combobox`. A label and a value is `AdaptiveModalSheet`. "Are you sure?" is `confirmDialog`.
+
+---
+
+## 7. Density and rhythm
+
+Settings detail pages, the projects detail page, and any list+detail content sit inside a centered, max-width 720 column (`packages/app/src/screens/settings-screen.tsx`, `packages/app/src/screens/projects-screen.tsx`). Lines stay readable, the eye does not have to track wide horizontal distances. Form modals carry their own narrower content frame (`packages/app/src/components/add-host-modal.tsx`).
+
+Workspace and chat surfaces use the full width — these are working surfaces, not reading surfaces. The composer carries `MAX_CONTENT_WIDTH` from `packages/app/src/constants/layout.ts` to keep lines readable while letting the workspace pane fill the rest.
+
+Sections sit apart. `<SettingsSection>` owns its own bottom margin; the next thing is wrapped in another `<SettingsSection>`. The agent-list `sectionHeading` carries the same `marginTop`/`marginBottom` rhythm (`packages/app/src/components/agent-list.tsx:511-517`). Adding `marginBottom` to a section is wrong.
+
+Cards inside a section sit closer than sections. Rows inside a card touch — only the divider separates them. The rhythm is page → spacious; section → spacious; card → tight.
+
+Rows have generous vertical padding: roughly 16px of content plus 16px of vertical padding for settings rows, 8–12px for sidebar list items where many rows must fit. Compressing rows below the established density to fit more on the screen is wrong. Too many rows means more cards or more sections, not smaller rows.
+
+The whitespace is the design.
+
+---
+
+## 8. Responsiveness
+
+Compact-first. The small case is designed; the large case adds chrome around it.
+
+The list+detail pattern is canonical and reused across surfaces. The settings shell (`packages/app/src/screens/settings-screen.tsx`) and the projects screen (`packages/app/src/screens/projects-screen.tsx`) implement it identically:
+
+- On compact: full-screen list with `<BackHeader>` at the top. Tapping a row pushes a full-screen detail with its own `<BackHeader>` that returns to the list.
+- On desktop: a 320px sidebar on the left holds the list with `surfaceSidebar` background. The content pane on the right holds the selected detail with `<ScreenHeader>`, `<HeaderIconBadge>`, and `<ScreenTitle>`.
+
+The branching is one `useIsCompactFormFactor()` check at the top of the screen component. The list and the detail are the same components in both layouts; only the framing changes.
+
+The workspace screen (`packages/app/src/screens/workspace/workspace-screen.tsx`) follows a different but parallel rule: tabs collapse on compact, panes split on desktop. The sidebar (`packages/app/src/components/left-sidebar.tsx`) is overlaid on compact and pinned on desktop.
+
+A new list+detail feature copies the settings shell. A new workspace-shaped feature copies the workspace shell. Inventing a third shape happens in design review, not in a PR.
+
+---
+
+## 9. Copy and voice
+
+Sentence case. "Pair a device", "Danger zone", "Restart daemon", "Inject Paseo tools", "No sessions yet", "Load more". Proper nouns retain casing — Paseo, Beta, Stable, Local. Title case is wrong.
+
+No trailing periods on row titles, labels, or buttons. No trailing period on a single-clause hint: "What happens when you press Enter while the agent is running" (`packages/app/src/screens/settings-screen.tsx:271-272`). Periods exist inside multi-sentence prose: "Restarts the daemon process. The app will reconnect automatically."
+
+Empty-state strings are short noun phrases or short sentences: "No projects yet", "Select a project", "No sessions yet" (`packages/app/src/screens/sessions-screen.tsx:74-76`), "Host not found".
+
+Buttons are imperative: Save, Cancel, Restart, Remove, Update, Install update, Add host, Load more. In-flight labels are present-participle with a literal three-dot ellipsis: "Saving...", "Restarting...", "Removing...", "Loading...".
+
+Error copy is direct. "Unable to remove host" (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/host-page.tsx:697`), not "Sorry, we couldn't remove the host." Recovery instructions are concrete: "Wait for it to come online before restarting." Errors describe state; they do not editorialize.
+
+Terminology:
+
+- Workspace, never "checkout".
+- Host, except where the user-facing concept is the daemon process itself ("Restart daemon").
+- Project, not "repo" or "repository".
+- Provider, not "model provider".
+- Session and agent are distinct: a session is a historical entry in `sessions-screen.tsx`; an agent is a live entity in the workspace.
+
+---
+
+## 10. States
+
+Loading is inline by default. `<LoadingSpinner size={14} color={foregroundMuted} />` sits next to the thing it relates to (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/providers-section.tsx:227-231`). Page-level loading is a centered `<LoadingSpinner size="large">` (`packages/app/src/screens/sessions-screen.tsx:69-72`). Card-level loading is a single short line, not a spinner. In-row dropdown items use `<DropdownMenuItem status="pending" pendingLabel="Removing...">`; the menu item handles its own pending state.
+
+Empty states are short noun phrases. Centered, muted, one or two lines. Sessions screen pairs the empty noun with a single ghost button to navigate back (`packages/app/src/screens/sessions-screen.tsx:74-81`); that pairing is the maximum elaboration. Illustrations and CTAs disguised as empty states are wrong.
+
+Inline errors are a single sentence in `palette.red[300]` `xs`, sitting under the field or inside the card it relates to (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/providers-section.tsx:115-119`).
+
+Page-level alerts — informational notices, success confirmations, warnings, or recoverable errors that need a small visible block on the page — use `<Alert>` (`packages/app/src/components/ui/alert.tsx`). Variants: `default`, `info`, `success`, `warning`, `error`. The chrome is quiet by design: a 1px tinted border, transparent background, a small variant-tinted icon, the title in the variant accent, the description in `foregroundMuted`. Actions go in the `children` slot as `<Button variant="outline" size="sm">` — recovery actions are low-frequency and outline keeps them quiet alongside the alert's accent (`packages/app/src/screens/project-settings-screen.tsx`). One `<Alert>` at a time per region.
+
+Sidebar callouts — cross-cutting alerts that apply across the whole app, like worktree setup, Rosetta install, and desktop update available — register through `useSidebarCallouts()` and render in the left sidebar via `<SidebarCallout>` (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-callout.tsx`). The chrome (top-border-only, full-width action buttons) is tuned for that ~280px column. Canonical sources: `packages/app/src/components/worktree-setup-callout-source.tsx`, `packages/app/src/desktop/updates/rosetta-callout-source.tsx`, `packages/app/src/desktop/updates/update-callout-source.tsx`. Never import `<SidebarCallout>` into a page — that's what `<Alert>` is for.
+
+Imperative errors are `Alert.alert("Error", "Unable to ...")` (the React Native `Alert` API, not this component) for failures that interrupt the flow and have no place on the page.
+
+Disabled state is `opacity: theme.opacity[50]` on the outer pressable. Color changes for disabled state are wrong; a disabled button is the same button, dimmer.
+
+Partial failure (a list mostly fine but one source errored) is a bordered banner above the list, listing each failure in red-300 `xs` (`packages/app/src/screens/projects-screen.tsx:151-159`). The list still renders.
+
+State surfaces at the smallest scope it affects. Field error stays under the field; page error is a banner; flow-stopping error is an `Alert`.
+
+---
+
+## 11. List rows
+
+The row anatomy is a content column with an optional trailing slot. Inside a card the row is `settingsStyles.row`. Inside a sidebar list the row carries its own padding and `borderRadius.lg` per item (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx:2614-2625`).
+
+Rows that drill into a detail lead with a chevron in the trailing slot (`ChevronRight`, `iconSize.sm`, `foregroundMuted`). The whole row is the `<Pressable>`. Pair-device row (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/host-page.tsx:644-668`), provider row (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/providers-section.tsx:92-132`), project row in the projects list. Chevron means navigation.
+
+Kebab menus (`<DropdownMenu>` with `<MoreVertical size={14} />` trigger) are for actions on the row, not navigation. Trigger style: `padding: 2`, `borderRadius: 4`, hover background `surface2`. Menu position: `align="end"`. Items use `<DropdownMenuItem leading={<Icon size={14} color={foregroundMuted} />} ...>`. Visibility is `isHovered || isTouchPlatform` — hover-revealed on web, always visible on native (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx:684-770`).
+
+A row may carry both a chevron and a kebab when both navigation and row-level actions apply. Chevron sits at the end; kebab sits before it.
+
+Switches and segmented controls also sit in the trailing slot. A row that both navigates and toggles is a `<Pressable>` with a `<Switch>` in the trailing slot — the switch calls `event.stopPropagation()` so the row press does not fire (`packages/app/src/screens/settings/providers-section.tsx:92-132`). Sidebar items that hold a status dot, a count, and a kebab follow the same rule (`packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx`).
+
+Selected state on rows in a desktop list+detail uses `surfaceSidebarHover` as the background (`packages/app/src/screens/projects-screen.tsx`). Selected state on rows in the sidebar list uses `surface2` (`packages/app/src/components/agent-list.tsx:563-571`).
+
+---
+
+## 12. Status pills and badges
+
+Status pills are `palette.<color>[300]` foreground on a 10%-alpha background of the same color. Success uses green, warning uses amber, danger uses red, muted uses zinc. The `<StatusBadge>` primitive (`packages/app/src/components/ui/status-badge.tsx`) is canonical.
+
+Status dots — the small filled circles next to a host or agent name — are `borderRadius.full` filled with the status color (`statusSuccess`, `statusWarning`, `statusDanger`, or `foregroundMuted`). They sit in the trailing slot of a sidebar row or as a leading marker on a status pill.
+
+The bespoke pills in `packages/app/src/screens/settings/host-page.tsx:97-116`, `packages/app/src/components/agent-list.tsx:607-632`, and `packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx:2889-2894` are drift to be removed. New code uses `<StatusBadge>`.

+# Development
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js (see `.tool-versions` for exact version)
+- npm workspaces (comes with Node)
+
+## Running the dev server
+
+```bash
+npm run dev:server
+npm run dev:app
+npm run dev:desktop
+```
+
+Root checkout dev is intentionally split across terminals:
+
+- `npm run dev:server` runs the daemon on `127.0.0.1:6768`.
+- `npm run dev:app` runs Expo on `http://localhost:8081` and connects to the dev daemon.
+- `npm run dev:desktop` runs its own Electron-flavored Expo server on the first free port from `8082` through `8089`. It never claims port `8081`.
+
+`npm run dev` is only a shorthand for `npm run dev:server`. Keep `127.0.0.1:6767` for the packaged app and production-style `~/.paseo` state.
+
+### PASEO_HOME
+
+`PASEO_HOME` is the directory that holds runtime state (agents, worktrees, workspace config, sockets, daemon log). Resolution rules:
+
+- The **server itself** (e.g. when launched by the desktop app or `npm run start`) defaults to `~/.paseo` (see `packages/server/src/server/paseo-home.ts`).
+- **Repo dev scripts** default to `$ROOT/.dev/paseo-home`, where `$ROOT` is the current checkout or worktree root. This keeps all dev state scoped to the checkout instead of the packaged desktop app.
+- **`npm run cli -- ...`** runs through the same dev-home wrapper as the dev scripts, so the in-repo CLI automatically targets the current checkout's `.dev/paseo-home` and configured dev daemon endpoint.
+- **Paseo-created worktrees** seed `$PASEO_WORKTREE_PATH/.dev/paseo-home` from `$PASEO_SOURCE_CHECKOUT_PATH/.dev/paseo-home` by copying durable JSON metadata. Runtime files like pid files, sockets, and logs are not copied.
+- **This repo's worktree setup** also best-effort seeds `packages/app/ios` and the newest `.dev/ios-build` entry from the source checkout so iOS simulator services can reuse native project and Xcode cache state when it is safe enough to do so.
+
+Override knobs:
+
+```bash
+PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo-blue npm run dev          # explicit home
+PASEO_DEV_SEED_HOME=/path/to/home npm run dev # seed from a different source home
+PASEO_DEV_RESET_HOME=1 npm run dev            # clear and reseed the derived worktree home
+```
+
+### Daemon endpoints
+
+- Stable daemon launched by the desktop app: `localhost:6767`.
+- Root checkout dev daemon: `localhost:6768`.
+- Root checkout Expo: `http://localhost:8081`.
+- Root checkout desktop dev Expo: first free port from `8082` through `8089`.
+- `npm run dev` (Windows): `localhost:6767` for the daemon.
+
+In Paseo-managed worktree services, use the injected service environment rather than hardcoded root checkout ports.
+
+### iOS simulator preview service
+
+Paseo worktrees expose the native iOS dev app through the `ios-simulator` service in `paseo.json`. The service URL serves the simulator preview at `/.sim`, so the preview link is `${PASEO_URL}/.sim`.
+
+The service is designed for concurrent worktrees: it derives a deterministic simulator identity from the worktree path, uses the worktree's assigned `PASEO_PORT`, pins `serve-sim` to that simulator UDID, and only tears down that worktree's helper/simulator state. It must not rely on the globally booted simulator or any fixed Metro port.
+
+Worktree setup best-effort seeds the generated iOS project and newest native build cache from the source checkout before the service runs. The service still validates the native project by running Expo prebuild and Xcode; the seed only avoids paying all setup/build cost from a cold worktree every time.
+
+Starting the service must not create, focus, reveal, or leave behind macOS Simulator.app windows. The browser preview is the user-visible simulator surface.
+
+### Desktop renderer profiling
+
+`npm run dev:desktop` starts Electron with Chromium remote debugging enabled on
+`http://127.0.0.1:9223` so renderer CPU profiles can be captured through CDP.
+It launches its own Electron-flavored Expo server and passes that URL to Electron.
+Override the CDP port with `PASEO_ELECTRON_REMOTE_DEBUGGING_PORT` when `9223` is busy.
+
+### React render profiling
+
+The app has a gated React render profiler in
+`packages/app/src/utils/render-profiler.tsx`. Wrap the component boundary you want
+to measure with `RenderProfile`, then open the app with `?renderProfile=1`. When
+the query param is absent, `RenderProfile` returns children directly and records
+nothing.
+
+Captured samples are exposed on `globalThis.__PASEO_RENDER_PROFILE__`. Call
+`globalThis.__PASEO_RESET_RENDER_PROFILE__?.()` after warm-up and before the
+interaction you want to measure. If a memo comparator or subscription boundary
+needs explanation, call `recordRenderProfileReasons(id, reasons)` while profiling;
+reason counts are exposed on `globalThis.__PASEO_RENDER_PROFILE_REASONS__`.
+
+Use this workflow for any render investigation:
+
+1. Add stable `RenderProfile` boundaries around the suspected root and expensive
+   children. Keep IDs specific enough to compare before and after.
+2. Reproduce against real app state, not toy fixtures, whenever practical.
+3. Record an idle baseline first. If idle is noisy, fix or account for that
+   before optimizing the interaction.
+4. Warm up the route, reset profiler samples, run the exact interaction, then
+   compare `actualDuration`, render counts, and per-commit samples.
+5. When a memo boundary still renders, record reasons before changing code. Do
+   not guess from object identity alone.
+6. Keep changes that move the measured profile. Remove probes or memo wrappers
+   that do not move the number.
+
+What this caught during the workspace tab investigation:
+
+- A large apparent workspace cost was real interaction work, not daemon noise;
+  the idle baseline stayed near zero.
+- The expensive stream rerender was mostly prop identity churn from pane context
+  callbacks and capability objects, not new stream data.
+- Stabilizing provider actions at the pane boundary helped because every mounted
+  panel consumes that context.
+- Comparing value-shaped capability flags beat preserving object identity through
+  unrelated stores.
+- Some plausible fixes did not pay off: memoizing the tab row and composer draft
+  object barely moved the profile, so they were removed.
+
+Existing scenario script: workspace agent/terminal tab switching. Start Expo on
+web, keep a daemon available, then run:
+
+```bash
+PASEO_PROFILE_SERVER_ID=<server-id> \
+PASEO_PROFILE_WORKSPACE_ID=<workspace-path> \
+PASEO_PROFILE_AGENT_ID=<agent-id> \
+  npm run profile:workspace-tabs --workspace=@getpaseo/app
+```
+
+This script opens the app with `?renderProfile=1`, creates a temporary terminal
+tab, switches between a real agent and that terminal, prints aggregated React
+Profiler timings, then removes the temporary terminal. It is an example of the
+workflow above, not the only way to use the profiler. Useful knobs:
+
+```bash
+PASEO_PROFILE_APP_URL=http://localhost:19010 # Expo web URL
+PASEO_PROFILE_SWITCH_COUNT=1                # number of agent/terminal switch pairs
+PASEO_PROFILE_SWITCH_WAIT_MS=250            # delay after each click
+PASEO_PROFILE_IDLE_WAIT_MS=3000             # idle baseline before switching
+PASEO_PROFILE_DUMP_COMMITS=1                # include per-commit profiler samples
+```
+
+### Desktop macOS compositor watchdog
+
+macOS display sleep can leave Chromium's GPU-process display link — the vsync
+source that drives frame production — stuck on a stale display. The compositor
+then stops producing frames and the window looks frozen: unresponsive to clicks
+and keys even though the renderer and every process stay alive. It self-recovers
+after a few minutes, which is too long for a foreground app.
+
+`setupDarwinCompositorWatchdog`
+(`packages/desktop/src/window/compositor-watchdog/index.ts`) guards against
+this. It polls the renderer for frame production every couple of seconds and,
+after a sustained stall while the window is visible and unlocked, restarts the
+GPU process so Chromium rebuilds the display link. The probe is skipped while
+the screen is locked or the window is hidden or minimized, since a window
+legitimately stops producing frames then.
+
+The watchdog deliberately leaves background throttling **enabled**. Calling
+`webContents.setBackgroundThrottling(false)` would keep the compositor producing
+frames non-stop, pinning ProMotion displays at 120Hz forever and draining the
+battery while the app is idle — so do not re-add it. The probe's visibility
+guards already prevent throttling from causing a false stall.
+
+### Daemon logs
+
+Check `$PASEO_HOME/daemon.log` for daemon logs. The default level is `info`; set
+`PASEO_LOG_LEVEL=trace` before launching the daemon when you need full provider,
+session, and agent-manager traces for stuck-state debugging.
+
+The supervisor rotates `daemon.log`. Persisted `log.file.rotate` settings in
+`$PASEO_HOME/config.json` win first. Without persisted config, the optional
+`PASEO_LOG_ROTATE_SIZE` and `PASEO_LOG_ROTATE_COUNT` env vars override the
+defaults. The default rotation is `10m` x `3` files everywhere.
+
+## paseo.json service scripts
+
+`worktree.setup` and `worktree.teardown` accept either a multiline shell script or an array
+of commands. Both run sequentially.
+
+```json
+{
+  "worktree": {
+    "setup": "npm ci\ncp \"$PASEO_SOURCE_CHECKOUT_PATH/.env\" .env\nnpm run db:migrate",
+    "teardown": "npm run db:drop || true"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Every `scripts` entry with `"type": "service"` receives these environment variables:
+
+| Variable                    | Value                                                                                                                     |
+| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `PASEO_SERVICE_<NAME>_URL`  | Proxied URL for a declared peer service. Prefer this for peer discovery; it survives peer restarts.                       |
+| `PASEO_SERVICE_<NAME>_PORT` | Raw ephemeral port for a declared peer service. Use only as a bypass escape hatch; it can go stale if that peer restarts. |
+| `PASEO_URL`                 | Self alias for `PASEO_SERVICE_<SELF>_URL`.                                                                                |
+| `PASEO_PORT`                | Self alias for `PASEO_SERVICE_<SELF>_PORT`.                                                                               |
+| `HOST`                      | Bind host for the service process.                                                                                        |
+
+Service proxy hostnames use the double-dash shape: `web--feature-auth--project.localhost` or, on the default branch, `web--project.localhost`. Optional public aliases use the same leftmost label under the configured public base host.
+
+`<NAME>` is normalized from the script name by uppercasing it, replacing each run of non-`A-Z0-9` characters with `_`, and trimming leading or trailing `_`. For example, `app-server` and `app.server` both normalize to `APP_SERVER`; that collision fails at spawn time with an actionable error.
+
+`PORT` is not injected by default. If a framework requires `PORT`, set it in the command:
+
+```json
+{
+  "scripts": {
+    "web": {
+      "type": "service",
+      "command": "PORT=$PASEO_PORT npm run dev:web"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Built workspace packages
+
+Package imports resolve through package exports to compiled `dist/` output, not sibling `src/` files. This is true in local dev and in published packages: the app, daemon, CLI, and SDK consumers should all exercise the same runtime paths.
+
+`npm run dev:server` builds the server-side workspace packages once, then keeps `@getpaseo/protocol` and `@getpaseo/client` fresh with TypeScript watch builds while the daemon runs. If you change protocol schemas or client code outside that watch workflow, rebuild the producer before trusting runtime behavior.
+
+Use the named root build targets instead of remembering workspace dependency chains:
+
+```bash
+npm run build:client       # protocol -> client
+npm run build:server-deps  # highlight -> relay -> protocol -> client
+npm run build:server       # server-deps -> server -> cli
+npm run build:app-deps     # highlight -> protocol -> client -> expo-two-way-audio
+```
+
+Use `npm run build:server` whenever you have changed any daemon/server-facing package and need clean cross-package types or runtime behavior.
+
+For tighter loops, you can rebuild a single workspace:
+
+- Changed `packages/protocol/src/*` or `packages/client/src/*`: `npm run build:client`.
+- Changed `packages/server/src/*`, `packages/cli/src/*`, `packages/relay/src/*`, or `packages/highlight/src/*`: `npm run build:server`.
+- Changed app build dependencies: `npm run build:app-deps`.
+
+## ACP provider catalog versions
+
+The in-app ACP provider catalog pins package-runner entries (`npx`, `npm exec`,
+and `uvx`) to exact package versions. Run the drift checker regularly — and
+before releases — so catalog installs do not sit on stale agent versions:
+
+```bash
+npm run acp:version-drift        # report stale/non-exact package pins
+npm run acp:version-drift:check  # same, exits non-zero on drift
+npm run acp:version-drift:update # rewrite catalog pins to latest exact versions
+```
+
+The checker updates only package-runner catalog entries. Providers that use a
+preinstalled binary such as `opencode acp`, `cursor-agent acp`, or `goose acp`
+are reported as skipped because their versions are owned by the user's local
+install.
+
+## CLI reference
+
+Use `npm run cli` to run the in-repo CLI from source (`npx tsx packages/cli/src/index.ts`). The script wraps the CLI with `scripts/dev-home.sh`, so it automatically uses this checkout's `.dev/paseo-home` and dev daemon endpoint unless you pass an explicit override. The globally installed `paseo` binary on macOS is a symlink into the installed Paseo desktop app, not this checkout — use it to drive the desktop's built-in daemon, but use `npm run cli` when you want to talk to the CLI you are editing.
+
+```bash
+npm run cli -- ls -a -g              # List all agents globally
+npm run cli -- ls -a -g --json       # Same, as JSON
+npm run cli -- inspect <id>          # Show detailed agent info
+npm run cli -- logs <id>             # View agent timeline
+npm run cli -- daemon status         # Check daemon status
+```
+
+Use `--host <host:port>` to point the CLI at a different daemon:
+
+```bash
+npm run cli -- --host localhost:7777 ls -a
+```
+
+## Agent state
+
+Agent data lives at:
+
+```
+$PASEO_HOME/agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json
+```
+
+Find an agent by ID:
+
+```bash
+find $PASEO_HOME/agents -name "{agent-id}.json"
+```
+
+Find by content:
+
+```bash
+rg -l "some title text" $PASEO_HOME/agents/
+```
+
+## Provider session files
+
+Get the session ID from the agent JSON (`persistence.sessionId`), then:
+
+**Claude:**
+
+```
+~/.claude/projects/{cwd-with-dashes}/{session-id}.jsonl
+```
+
+**Codex:**
+
+```
+~/.codex/sessions/{YYYY}/{MM}/{DD}/rollout-{timestamp}-{session-id}.jsonl
+```
+
+## Testing with Playwright MCP
+
+Point Playwright MCP at the running Expo web target. For root checkout dev, `npm run dev:app` reserves `http://localhost:8081`. For Paseo-managed worktree app services, use the service URL or port shown by Paseo for that worktree.
+
+Do NOT use browser history (back/forward). Always navigate by clicking UI elements or using `browser_navigate` with the full URL — the app uses client-side routing and browser history breaks state.
+
+## App web deploys
+
+`packages/app` exports a single-page Expo web app and deploys the `dist/`
+directory to Cloudflare Pages with `npm run deploy:web --workspace=@getpaseo/app`.
+
+PWA install metadata lives in `packages/app/public/manifest.json` and is linked
+from `packages/app/public/index.html`. Keep the install icons in `public/` so
+Cloudflare serves them from stable root URLs after `expo export`.
+
+Do not add service-worker caching casually. Paseo is a live control surface for
+agents, and an aggressive service worker can strand installed users on stale web
+code. If offline behavior becomes a product requirement, add it deliberately
+with an update strategy and test the installed-app upgrade path.
+
+## Expo troubleshooting

+npx expo-doctor

+# File Icons
+
+The file explorer uses colored SVG icons from [`material-icon-theme`](https://github.com/material-extensions/vscode-material-icon-theme) (installed as a dev dependency in `packages/app`).
+
+Icons are inlined as SVG strings in:
+
+```
+packages/app/src/components/material-file-icons.ts
+```
+
+This file is auto-generated. Do not edit it by hand.
+
+## How it works
+
+- `SVG_ICONS` maps icon names (e.g. `"typescript"`) to raw SVG strings
+- `EXTENSION_TO_ICON` maps file extensions (e.g. `"ts"`) to icon names
+- `getFileIconSvg(fileName)` returns the SVG string for a given filename, falling back to a generic file icon
+- `packages/app/src/components/file-explorer-pane.tsx` is the only consumer; it renders the SVG with `SvgXml` from `react-native-svg`
+
+## Adding a new icon
+
+1. Find the icon name in the material-icon-theme manifest:
+
+```bash
+node -e "
+const m = require('./node_modules/material-icon-theme/dist/material-icons.json');
+console.log('fileExtensions:', m.fileExtensions['YOUR_EXT']);
+console.log('languageIds:', m.languageIds['YOUR_LANG']);
+"
+```
+
+2. Verify the SVG exists:
+
+```bash
+cat node_modules/material-icon-theme/icons/ICON_NAME.svg
+```
+
+3. Add two things to `material-file-icons.ts`:
+   - The SVG string in `SVG_ICONS`:
+
+     ```ts
+     "icon_name": `<svg ...>...</svg>`,
+     ```
+
+   - The extension mapping in `EXTENSION_TO_ICON`:
+     ```ts
+     "ext": "icon_name",
+     ```
+
+4. Run `npm run typecheck` to verify.
+
+## Currently included icons
+
+53 unique icons covering these extensions:

+# Floating Panels
+
+Anchored popovers — tooltips, hover cards, dropdowns, autocompletes — that visually
+float above an anchor element on iOS, Android, and web. This doc captures the
+non-obvious traps. It is **not** a tutorial; it assumes you have seen the
+canonical files and are trying to add or change one.
+
+## Canonical files
+
+| File                                     | Use case                                                          |
+| ---------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `components/ui/combobox.tsx`             | Anchored picker with search; mobile falls back to bottom sheet    |
+| `components/ui/tooltip.tsx`              | Non-interactive hover/long-press tooltip                          |
+| `components/workspace-hover-card.tsx`    | Desktop-web hover card with measure + computePosition + Portal    |
+| `components/ui/autocomplete-popover.tsx` | Slash-command autocomplete anchored to the focused composer input |
+
+Each handles a different mix of concerns: combobox owns input focus, tooltip is
+non-interactive, hover-card is web-only desktop, autocomplete keeps the composer
+input focused while its scrollable list lives in a Portal. There is no shared
+"floating panel" primitive yet — when a fifth use case shows up we can revisit;
+until then prefer copying the closest file and trimming.
+
+## Gotcha 1 — Android touch hit-test by parent bounds
+
+On Android, a child View whose bounds fall outside its parent's bounds renders
+correctly (with `overflow: visible`, the default) but **does not receive touch
+events**. `ViewGroup.dispatchTouchEvent` filters touches by the parent's hit
+rect first, then iterates children. A touch in the overflowing region never
+reaches the parent, let alone the child. iOS and web do not share this rule —
+iOS hit-test descends into overflowing children, web uses standard CSS pointer
+events. This is the bug that put autocomplete on this path: the popover was
+positioned `bottom: 100%` of its parent and worked on iOS/web for months;
+Android touches sailed straight through to the chat scroll view behind it.
+
+Two escape hatches in the codebase:
+
+- **`Modal`** (combobox, tooltip on native) — opens a new Android window, so
+  hit-testing starts fresh in that window. Side effect: a Modal opening on
+  Android can detach the IME from an underlying TextInput. Fine for combobox
+  (it has its own input) and tooltip (no input). **Not** fine for autocomplete
+  (the composer's input must stay focused so the user keeps typing).
+- **`<Portal>` from `@gorhom/portal`** (hover-card, autocomplete-popover) —
+  hoists the React subtree to a fixed mount point whose bounds cover the
+  screen. Same window, same IME, hit-test works because the new parent is
+  full-screen. This is the right default when you must keep IME attachment.
+  Choose the host by layer: app-global overlays use the root host; content
+  overlays can use the current `FloatingPanelPortalHost` so sliding sidebars
+  cover them.
+
+Choose Modal vs Portal by whether the underlying input can lose its keyboard.
+
+## Gotcha 2 — Portal breaks lifecycle and coordinate-system inheritance
+
+A Portal escapes Android's hit-test, but it also escapes two things you were
+quietly relying on:
+
+- **Lifecycle.** The portal'd subtree mounts at the app root, not inside your
+  component's natural ancestor chain. When the user navigates away, your
+  component may stay mounted (offscreen, in a tab) — the popover stays with it.
+  Gate `visible` on a screen-focus signal. For panes inside `agent-panel`, the
+  `isPaneFocused` prop already exists and flips on pane switches; pass
+  `visible={isYourOwnVisible && isPaneFocused}`.
+- **Transforms.** The composer is wrapped in a Reanimated `Animated.View` with
+  `translateY: -keyboardShift` (see `use-keyboard-shift-style.ts`). The chat
+  content has the same transform applied (`agent-panel.tsx:939`). They move
+  together because they share the SharedValue. A portal'd popover is outside
+  the composer tree — it does not get that transform unless you apply it
+  yourself.
+- **Layering.** The default root host renders after app content, so it sits
+  above compact sidebars. Content overlays that must sit below sidebars should
+  use the current `FloatingPanelPortalHost`.
+- **Coordinate systems.** `measureInWindow` gives window coordinates. A Portal
+  renders inside its host, not necessarily at window origin. Position anchored
+  content relative to the host: `anchorRect - hostRect`. This is what
+  `measureFloatingPanelPortalHost()` is for.
+
+The fix for transforms is Gotcha 3.
+
+## Gotcha 3 — Reanimated transforms vs `measureInWindow`
+
+`measureInWindow` returns the view's _current_ screen position. In theory that
+includes Reanimated-applied transforms (Reanimated updates native view
+properties, and Android's `getLocationInWindow` reads transformed coords). In
+practice it's racy — the measurement may snapshot mid-animation, and on Android
+with Reanimated worklets the result is not always stable.
+
+If the panel cannot stay inside the transformed ancestor, do not try to track
+the keyboard by re-measuring on every frame. Instead,
+**slave the popover's transform to the same SharedValue the composer uses**:
+
+1. Snapshot `openShift = shift.value` at the moment you measure the anchor.
+2. Apply `useAnimatedStyle(() => ({ transform: [{ translateY: openShift.value - shift.value }] }))`
+   to the popover wrapper.
+
+When `shift` equals `openShift`, the translate is 0 and the popover sits at
+the measured position. When the keyboard moves afterward, the delta translates
+the popover by exactly the amount the composer translates. They move in
+lockstep, no re-measurement needed.
+
+Re-measure on `Keyboard.addListener('keyboardDidShow'|'keyboardDidHide')` only
+to refresh the snapshot if the keyboard was mid-transition when the popover
+opened.
+
+## Gotcha 4 — Host-relative positioning before platform offsets
+
+The generic anchored-overlay rule is:
+
+1. Measure the anchor with `measureInWindow`.
+2. Measure the Portal host with `measureFloatingPanelPortalHost(hostName)`.
+3. Position with anchor coordinates relative to the host:
+
+```ts
+left = anchorRect.x - hostRect.x;
+bottom = hostRect.height - (anchorRect.y - hostRect.y) + offset;
+```
+
+Do this before adding any platform offset. If anchor and host are both measured
+with `measureInWindow`, Android's status-bar coordinate behavior cancels out.
+Only add a status-bar offset when the render surface is not measured in the same
+coordinate system. See `tooltip.tsx` for that separate case.
+
+## Gotcha 5 — The two-measurement flash
+
+If your popover needs `top` (or `left`) computed from both:
+
+- the anchor's screen position (`anchorRect` from `measureInWindow`), **and**
+- the popover's own size (`contentSize` from `onLayout`),
+
+then a naïve implementation will flash through three positions on every open:
+
+1. **Frame 1** — render with `top: -9999` (or any placeholder) while waiting
+   for either measurement. Wrapper has no `width`, so the inner content lays
+   out at its natural (often narrow) intrinsic width.
+2. **Frame 2** — `anchorRect` lands. Wrapper now has `width: anchorRect.width`.
+   But the stale `onLayout` from frame 1 has already set `contentSize` to the
+   narrow-width dimensions. `top = anchorRect.y - wrongHeight - gap` — visible
+   at the wrong spot.
+3. **Frame 3** — real `onLayout` fires with the correct width. `contentSize`
+   updates. Position snaps to the right place.
+
+The visible jump in frame 2 is the flash. Two pieces solve it, and you need
+both:
+
+- **Do not mount the floating content until `anchorRect` is set.** Return
+  `null` until then. This prevents the bad-width onLayout from happening at
+  all.
+- **Once `anchorRect` is set but `contentSize` isn't, render the wrapper with
+  the final width but `opacity: 0`.** The first visible paint is at the
+  correct position. This is the combobox pattern —
+  `shouldHideDesktopContent` at `combobox.tsx:481, 876`. **Do not** use
+  `top: -9999` as the placeholder; the layout work still happens at -9999 and
+  any subsequent state-flash is visible when you flip back.
+
+The "render invisible to measure, then reveal" pattern is the canonical
+solution to chicken-and-egg positioning in this codebase. Reach for it before
+anything fancier.
+
+## Gotcha 6 — Bottom sheet refs are not lifecycle truth
+
+`@gorhom/bottom-sheet` modals churn their imperative ref while presenting and
+dismissing. Do not treat `ref != null` as permission to call `present()`, and do
+not treat `ref == null` as the sheet being closed. The user-visible lifecycle is
+the desired `visible` prop plus the sheet callbacks (`onChange(-1)`,
+`onDismiss`).
+
+If a user closes a sheet with the backdrop or a pan gesture, the sheet may detach
+and reattach before React state has acknowledged `visible=false`. Re-presenting
+on that attach races Gorhom's dismiss path and leaves the modal unable to reopen.
+Track an explicit phase (`closed` / `presenting` / `presented` / `dismissing`) and
+ignore ref churn while dismissing.
+
+Do not treat `onChange(-1)` as a close by itself. In a stacked
+`BottomSheetModal`, `-1` can also mean the sheet is temporarily hidden under
+another pushed sheet. Close React state from `onDismiss`; use `onChange` only to
+track phase.
+
+## Recipe for a new anchored panel
+
+Before you write a new one, ask:
+
+1. **Can the underlying input lose its keyboard?** If yes, use Modal (simpler).
+   If no, use Portal.
+2. **Does the panel need to dismiss on screen change?** Almost always yes —
+   gate `visible` on an upstream focus prop (`isPaneFocused` or similar).
+3. **Is the panel rendered in a Portal host?** Measure the host too. Never use
+   raw window coordinates as local Portal coordinates.
+4. **Does the panel sit above something that moves with the keyboard?** If
+   yes, slave a Reanimated transform to the same SharedValue (Gotcha 3).
+   If no, you can probably skip the transform entirely.
+5. **Will the panel's content height vary?** If yes, you need both
+   `anchorRect` and `contentSize` for positioning → apply Gotcha 5 (return
+   null until anchor, then opacity-0 until contentSize). If no — content has
+   a known fixed max height — you might be able to use bottom-anchored
+   positioning (`bottom: windowHeight - anchor.y + gap`) and skip the
+   `contentSize` round-trip entirely. **But only if the height is genuinely
+   bounded**. Verify before you commit.
+
+Then copy the closest canonical file and trim.

Don't confuse with: Branch (one branch can back many workspaces via worktrees). Forbidden: "Folder", "Directory" as UI label.
+- **Workspace kind** — `"directory" | "local_checkout" | "worktree"`. Code: `PersistedWorkspaceKind` (`packages/server/src/server/workspace-registry-model.ts:8`).
+- **Agent** — See **Agent session**. UI still says "Agent" / "New Agent" in places, but moving toward **Agent session** as the canonical term. Code: `AgentSnapshotPayload` (`packages/protocol/src/messages.ts:608`). Forbidden: "Task", "Job", "Run".
+- **Daemon** — Local Paseo server process; identified by `serverId`. UI: "Daemon" (system contexts only). Code: `serverId` in `ServerInfoStatusPayloadSchema` (`packages/protocol/src/messages.ts:1936`), `DaemonClient` (`packages/client/src/daemon-client.ts`).

+- **Attachment tray** — The selected-attachments row inside the composer input, above the text input. Code: `renderAttachmentTray` (`packages/app/src/composer/index.tsx`). Forbidden: "Attachment bar".
+- **Conflict** — Two distinct senses; do NOT use the bare word in UI copy without qualifying which: (a) **stale-write conflict** on `paseo.json` ("Config changed on disk", code `stale_project_config`, `packages/app/src/screens/project-settings-screen.tsx:593`); (b) **git merge conflict** (no current UI string).
+

+# Hover
+
+Read this before writing any hover code. Every hover regression we ship is one of the three failure modes below, and every one of them is solved by the same canonical pattern. The pattern is hardwon — it survived every other shape we tried — so copy it, don't reinvent it.
+
+## The pattern
+
+The canonical implementation lives in `packages/app/src/components/sidebar-workspace-list.tsx`, in the workspace row (around line 1369). When in doubt, open that file and copy the shape.
+
+```tsx
+//
+//   ┌─ Plain View. Tracks hover via pointerenter/pointerleave.
+//   │
+<View
+  style={styles.workspaceRowContainer}
+  onPointerEnter={handlePointerEnter}
+  onPointerLeave={handlePointerLeave}
+>
+  <Pressable                          // ┐ Separate inner Pressable.
+    onPress={handlePress}             // │ Handles press only.
+    onPressIn={...}                   // │ Never has onHoverIn/onHoverOut.
+    onPressOut={...}                  // ┘
+    style={workspaceRowStyle}
+  >
+    <View style={styles.workspaceRowMain}>
+      <View style={styles.workspaceRowLeft}>…</View>
+      <WorkspaceRowRightGroup isHovered={isHovered} />
+      {/*                    └─ Reveals content based on hover state. */}
+    </View>
+  </Pressable>
+</View>
+```
+
+Five things make this work. Every one of them matters.
+
+1. **Hover lives on a plain `View`, not a `Pressable`.** `Pressable` carries its own internal hover state machine. Nested `Pressable`s fight over it. A plain `View` just dispatches DOM events — no state machine, no fighting.
+2. **Press lives on a _separate_ inner `Pressable`.** Hover and press never share an element. The two state machines never see each other.
+3. **`onPointerEnter` / `onPointerLeave` are non-bubbling**, mouseenter-style by W3C spec. They fire only when crossing the outer `View`'s bounding box. Crossing into descendants — including descendant `Pressable`s (the kebab menu's buttons, a copy button, a tooltip target) — does **not** fire `pointerleave`. This is why nesting `Pressable`s inside is safe.
+4. **The row has a fixed `minHeight`.** When content swaps in on hover (kebab replacing a diff stat), both occupy the same fixed slot. Zero layout shift, zero geometry flicker.
+5. **The outer `View` has nothing but `position: relative`.** It exists only to be the hover target. All real layout lives on the inner `Pressable`. The hover-tracker is a sealed envelope around the row; layout changes inside it never leak out and re-enter through the side.
+
+That's the whole pattern. Internalize it.
+
+## When you skip the pattern, here is what breaks
+
+### Failure mode 1 — Nested Pressables fight over hover state
+
+If you put `onHoverIn` / `onHoverOut` on a `Pressable` that has another `Pressable` anywhere inside it (a copy button, an icon button, a nested action), the moment the cursor moves onto the inner `Pressable`, the inner one's hover state machine claims hover and the outer one's `onHoverOut` fires. Your reveal state flips off. The reveal hides. The cursor is no longer over the hidden reveal, so it ends up back over the trigger area. The outer's `onHoverIn` fires. Loop.
+
+This is the most common hover bug shipped in this codebase, by a wide margin. It is what the workspace row is structured to avoid. The fix is not "be clever about handlers" — it's "don't put hover on a Pressable that contains other Pressables."
+
+> **Rule:** the hover-tracking element is a plain `View` with `onPointerEnter` / `onPointerLeave`. Any `Pressable`s — including ones you forgot are Pressables, like `TurnCopyButton`, icon buttons, anything that handles a tap — live inside it.
+
+### Failure mode 2 — The hovered state changes the trigger's geometry
+
+Symptom: you hover a button, it changes appearance, then flickers between hovered and not-hovered without the cursor moving.
+
+Cause: the hover state changed the size or position of the trigger. The cursor was on the original element; the new layout shifts or shrinks it out from under the cursor; `onHoverOut` fires; state reverts; original layout returns; cursor is back over the trigger; `onHoverIn` fires; loop.
+
+Common variants:
+
+- Hover state changes the trigger's `width`, `height`, `padding`, or `borderWidth`.
+- Hover state mounts/unmounts a child that pushes the trigger to a new position.
+- Hover state swaps the trigger for a different element type, remounting it.
+
+Fixes, in preferred order:
+
+1. **Don't change the trigger's outer geometry on hover.** Change colors, opacity, borders that don't take layout space (`outlineWidth` on web, absolutely positioned overlays), or child content that fits inside the same fixed box. Never change `width`, `height`, `padding`, or `borderWidth` of the hover target itself.
+2. **Hide with `opacity` + `pointerEvents`, not conditional rendering**, when the hidden element lives inside the trigger. Mounting/unmounting on hover reflows the layout under the cursor.
+3. **Pin the hit area.** Set a fixed `minHeight` / `minWidth` on the trigger so internal swaps (icon-A becomes icon-B on hover) leave the bounding box unchanged. The workspace row's `minHeight: 36` is what makes the kebab/diff-stat swap stable.
+
+### Failure mode 3 — Revealed content lives outside the hover trigger
+
+If hovering element A reveals element B, B must be **inside** A's hover trigger. If B is a sibling, the moment the cursor moves from A toward B it crosses out of A's bounding box, `pointerleave` fires, B disappears.
+
+Wrong:
+
+```tsx
+<View>
+  <View onPointerEnter={...} onPointerLeave={...}>     {/* hover trigger */}
+    <Bubble />
+  </View>
+  <TrailingRow />                                       {/* OUTSIDE — sibling, not child */}
+</View>
+```
+
+Right:
+
+```tsx
+<View onPointerEnter={...} onPointerLeave={...}>      {/* hover trigger */}
+  <Bubble />
+  <TrailingRow />                                      {/* INSIDE — child */}
+</View>
+```
+
+Any gap between A and B (margins between siblings inside the same parent) is part of the parent's bounding box, so the cursor stays inside the hover region while crossing it. No bridge needed.
+
+If A and B genuinely can't share a parent — B portals into a different layer, floats above other content — see [Section: real gaps](#real-gaps-with-floating-panels) below.
+
+## Native fallback
+
+Hover doesn't exist on touch devices. Anything you hide behind hover must have a non-hover path on native and compact layouts:
+
+```tsx
+const showControls = isHovered || isNative || isCompact;
+```
+
+`isNative` and `isCompact` come from `@/constants/platform` and `@/constants/layout`. Don't use `Platform.OS === "ios"` as a proxy.
+
+`onPointerEnter` / `onPointerLeave` are DOM events. They do not fire on native. You do not need to gate them — on native, hover is unreachable anyway and visibility is driven by `isNative` / `isCompact` in your show-the-controls expression above. This is why the workspace row's pointer events are not wrapped in `if (isWeb)`.
+
+## What about `Pressable.onHoverIn` / `onHoverOut`?
+
+It's fine when a `Pressable` styles **itself** based on its own hover — for example, an icon button that changes color on hover. That's self-contained. The render-prop `<Pressable style={({ hovered }) => ...}>` does the same thing more cleanly and is the preferred form.
+
+It is **not** fine for tracking hover to drive state **outside** that `Pressable` (revealing a sibling, opening a tooltip, showing a kebab) when there is any other `Pressable` inside — because that's Failure Mode 1.
+
+Heuristic: if your hover state is going to be `useState`'d and read by anything other than the same `Pressable`'s own style, do not use `onHoverIn` / `onHoverOut`. Use the canonical pattern.
+
+## Real gaps with floating panels
+
+Sometimes the revealed content can't live inside the trigger — a hover card portals into a different layer, a tooltip floats above other content, a popover renders into a `Portal`. There's a real visual gap the user has to cross with the cursor.
+
+For this case, use `useHoverSafeZone` (`packages/app/src/hooks/use-hover-safe-zone.ts`). It computes a rectangular "bridge" between the trigger and the content; while the pointer is inside trigger, content, or the bridge, the card stays open. A short grace timer absorbs jitter at the edges. The canonical caller is `packages/app/src/components/workspace-hover-card.tsx`.
+
+Don't roll your own. The math is annoying, the edge cases (pointer leaves window, drag in progress, content unmounts) are subtle, and we already paid for the hook.
+
+## Pre-PR checklist
+
+Before opening a PR that touches hover:
+
+- [ ] Hover-tracking is on a plain `View` with `onPointerEnter` / `onPointerLeave`, **not** on a `Pressable` that wraps anything pressable.
+- [ ] Any press behavior lives on a separate inner `Pressable` that does not have `onHoverIn` / `onHoverOut`.
+- [ ] The hover trigger's bounding box contains every element the user might mouse into while interacting with the feature.
+- [ ] Hovered state does **not** change the trigger's outer geometry (`width`, `height`, `padding`, `borderWidth`, mount/unmount of siblings that shift it). Internal swaps fit inside a fixed `minHeight` / `minWidth`.
+- [ ] Revealed content inside the trigger uses `opacity` + `pointerEvents`, not conditional rendering, if mounting it would reflow the trigger.
+- [ ] Visibility on native and compact layouts works without hover (`isHovered || isNative || isCompact`).
+- [ ] If the revealed content sits in a separate layer (portal, floating panel), `useHoverSafeZone` is wired up.
+- [ ] You opened the dev server, hovered the trigger, and slowly moved the mouse along **every** revealed element — including any visible gaps — without losing hover state.

+# I18n
+
+Paseo client UI translations live in `packages/app/src/i18n`.
+
+## Supported Locales
+
+- `en`
+- `ar`
+- `es`
+- `fr`
+- `ru`
+- `zh-CN`
+
+The persisted app language setting is `"system" | "ar" | "en" | "es" | "fr" | "ru" | "zh-CN"`. `"system"` follows the device or browser locale when it maps to a supported locale; unsupported system locales fall back to English.
+
+## Translation Scope
+
+Translate client-owned UI copy: labels, buttons, empty states, confirmation text, and local status/error wrappers.
+
+Do not translate agent output, daemon output, terminal contents, file paths, provider names, model names, command names, user-authored text, code blocks, logs, or raw protocol/server error text.
+
+## Adding Copy
+
+English source strings live in `packages/app/src/i18n/resources/en.ts`. Simplified Chinese strings live in `packages/app/src/i18n/resources/zh-CN.ts`.
+
+For migrated screens and components, use `useTranslation()` and pass translated text into UI primitives. Low-level primitives such as `<Button>` do not import translation state unless they own the text they render.
+
+Keep resource keys grouped by product surface, not component mechanics.
+
+Run:
+
+```bash
+npx vitest run packages/app/src/i18n/resources.test.ts --bail=1
+```
+
+The parity test catches missing keys between English and Simplified Chinese resources.
+
+## Migration Order
+
+Client UI translation is staged so each pass can migrate complete local copy clusters and keep reviews focused.
+
+1. App shell and shared UI chrome: common actions, headers, sheets, command center, and client-owned toast status.
+2. Composer and agent workflow: composer input, agent controls, permission prompts, plan approval, and agent panel wrapper states.
+3. Settings expansion: Appearance, Shortcuts, Integrations, Permissions, Diagnostics, About, Project settings, Host settings, and provider diagnostics.
+4. Workspace and panels: setup/file/browser/terminal wrapper copy, file explorer local states, import-session flows, and remaining local toast/error wrapper text.
+
+Within a migrated surface, do not leave mixed-language neighboring labels when those labels are owned by the client. Move the whole local copy cluster together.

+- Batch 4R migrated desktop permission utility chrome: permission status details, permission request fallback errors, empty permission statuses, and desktop notification test wrappers. Browser permission states, exception names, and raw browser API error messages remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4S migrated desktop daemon settings chrome: built-in daemon status rows, daemon lifecycle toggles, logs/status modals, clipboard alerts, daemon management confirmations/errors, daemon status load errors, and desktop CLI/skills install wrapper errors. PIDs, log paths, log contents, CLI status output, version values, and raw IPC errors remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4T migrated remaining attachment/autocomplete utility chrome: user and composer review attachment labels, workspace hover-card accessibility, branch stash restore prompts/toasts, agent autocomplete loading/empty/fallback error text, older-history fallback toast, draft panel labels, and agent-control fallback labels. PR/issue numbers, browser element tags, branch names, provider labels, model labels, agent prompts, command/file names, and raw server errors remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4U migrated shared default utility chrome: Combobox and Autocomplete default placeholders/empty/loading labels, drag-overlay and subagent-track loading labels, sub-agent activity fallback headers, and file-preview fallback errors. Caller-provided labels, tab titles, subagent descriptions, file paths, and raw file-load errors remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4V migrated Git policy action chrome to direct `i18n.t(...)` calls: commit/pull/push/sync/PR/merge/auto-merge/archive action labels, pending/success labels, and unavailable reasons. Branch/base refs, PR URLs, GitHub merge-state enum values, runtime statuses, and raw Git/GitHub errors remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4W migrated remaining local wrapper states: workspace copy unavailable toasts, startup daemon-log loading/empty/load-failed text, and file-explorer workspace/host unavailable fallbacks. Workspace paths, branch names, daemon log contents/paths, checkout query details, and raw file/daemon errors remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4X migrated descriptor and command chrome: Pair-device modal header, workspace setup sheet title, terminal panel fallback labels, command-center action titles, and file-pane host-disconnected fallback. Provider/catalog names, command-center search keywords, terminal runtime titles, file paths, and raw read errors remain runtime values.
+- Batch 4Y tightened the translation boundary so React components and custom hooks use `useTranslation()` while pure helpers keep direct `i18n.t(...)` fallbacks, and migrated remaining small UI/accessibility fallbacks across message details, menu backdrops, startup errors, sidebar PR badges, settings/project accessibility labels, composer send/create/download fallbacks, client slash-command descriptions, terminal subscribe errors, and desktop update completion text. Provider catalog metadata, shortcut registry fallbacks, agent/daemon/protocol reasons, terminal contents, raw runtime errors, and user/project/workspace names remain untranslated.
+- Batch 4Z expanded the supported locale set to the six UN official languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, French, Russian, and Spanish. Arabic, French, Russian, and Spanish now have full client-owned UI resource coverage, with key parity, fallback-ratio, and interpolation-placeholder tests guarding the generated translations. Arabic does not enable RTL layout direction in this batch.

+# Mobile Testing
+
+## Maestro
+
+Maestro flows live in `packages/app/maestro/`. Reusable sub-flows live in `packages/app/maestro/flows/`.
+
+Run a flow:
+
+```bash
+maestro test packages/app/maestro/my-flow.yaml
+```
+
+### Screenshots
+
+`takeScreenshot` writes to the **current working directory** — there's no way to configure the output path in the YAML. To keep screenshots out of the checkout, `cd` into a temp directory and use an absolute path for the flow:
+
+```bash
+FLOW="$(pwd)/packages/app/maestro/my-flow.yaml"
+mkdir -p /tmp/maestro-out
+cd /tmp/maestro-out && maestro test "$FLOW"
+```
+
+`packages/app/maestro/.gitignore` excludes `*.png` as a safety net.
+
+### Element targeting
+
+Use `testID` or `nativeID` on components, then target with `id:` in flows. Prefer this over text matching — text breaks on copy changes.
+
+```tsx
+// Component
+<Pressable testID="sidebar-sessions" onPress={onPress}>
+```
+
+```yaml
+# Flow
+- tapOn:
+    id: "sidebar-sessions"
+- assertVisible:
+    id: "sidebar-sessions"
+```
+
+### Conditional steps
+
+Use `runFlow:when:visible` for steps that should only execute when a specific element is on screen:
+
+```yaml
+- runFlow:
+    when:
+      visible:
+        id: "sidebar-sessions"
+    commands:
+      - swipe:
+          direction: LEFT
+          duration: 300
+```
+
+This is how `flows/dev-client.yaml` handles Expo dev client screens that only appear in dev builds.
+
+### Don't use launchApp against a running dev app
+
+`launchApp` kills and restarts the app, disrupting Expo dev client state and host connections. For flows that test against an already-running dev app, **omit launchApp entirely** — just interact with whatever is on screen.
+
+Use `launchApp` only in flows that need a clean start (e.g., onboarding tests).
+
+### Swipe gestures
+
+Use `start`/`end` with percentage coordinates for precise control:
+
+```yaml
+# Edge swipe from left to open sidebar
+- swipe:
+    start: "5%,50%"
+    end: "80%,50%"
+    duration: 300
+```
+
+`direction: RIGHT` is simpler but less precise — use it for generic swipes, use coordinates when the start position matters (edge gestures, avoiding specific UI regions).
+
+### Assertions
+
+`assertVisible` checks **actual screen visibility**, not just view tree presence. An element that exists in the tree but is off-screen (e.g., `translateX: -400`) will correctly fail `assertVisible`. This makes it reliable for catching animation bugs where state says "open" but the view is visually hidden.
+
+For async elements, use `extendedWaitUntil`:
+
+```yaml
+- extendedWaitUntil:
+    visible: ".*Online.*"
+    timeout: 90000
+```
+
+### Dev client handling
+
+Two reusable flows handle Expo dev client screens after launch:
+
+- `flows/launch.yaml` — handles dev launcher, dismisses dev menu, asserts "Welcome to Paseo"
+- `flows/dev-client.yaml` — same but without asserting a particular app route
+
+### Reach the composer
+
+`flows/land-in-chat.yaml` is the canonical "get into a chat" primitive. It `clearState`s, runs `launch.yaml`, taps the welcome screen's direct-connection option, types `127.0.0.1:6767`, submits, and waits for `message-input-root`. Compose any composer-level fixture on top of it:
+
+```yaml
+appId: sh.paseo
+---
+- runFlow: flows/land-in-chat.yaml
+# ...your scenario here, starting from a ready composer
+```
+
+See `image-picker-repro.yaml` for an example.
+
+**Prefer direct connection over relay pairing for local E2E.** Relay needs a 400+ character pairing URL typed into an input; direct needs `127.0.0.1:6767`. The daemon listens on 6767 and the simulator can reach it directly.
+
+### New Workspace Creation
+
+The Android workspace-creation regression has a dedicated harness:
+
+```bash
+bash packages/app/maestro/test-workspace-create-android-crash.sh
+```
+
+For a short recording that starts after launch/connection/sidebar setup:
+
+```bash
+bash packages/app/maestro/record-workspace-create-android-focus.sh
+```
+
+The flow details are documented in `packages/app/maestro/README.md`. The important rule is that a valid new-workspace assertion must prove the redirect completed: select a real model, tap `Create`, wait for `workspace-header-title`, wait for `message-input-root`, assert `New workspace` is gone, and assert the Android redbox strings are absent. Waiting for the composer alone is too weak because it can still be the `/new` route after a validation error.
+
+New workspace scenarios should compose the reusable subflows in `packages/app/maestro/flows/`:
+
+- `android-dev-client.yaml`
+- `connect-direct-if-welcome.yaml`
+- `open-prepared-project-sidebar.yaml`
+- `new-workspace-open-from-sidebar.yaml`
+- `new-workspace-select-codex-gpt54.yaml`
+- `new-workspace-submit-and-assert-created.yaml`
+
+The workspace-create shell scripts render those subflows into a temp directory before running Maestro, which keeps nested `runFlow` paths and `${PASEO_MAESTRO_*}` placeholders working together.
+
+### Inputs that Maestro types into
+
+Maestro `inputText` fires one character at a time. React Native's **controlled** `TextInput` re-renders per keystroke; if a controlled input's state update lags or re-mounts mid-type, characters are dropped silently — the final value on screen is a truncated/scrambled version of what was "typed."
+
+For inputs that E2E flows type into (host endpoint, pairing URL, etc.), use an **uncontrolled ref-backed input**: `defaultValue` + `onChangeText` writes into a `useRef`, reads via the ref on submit. No per-keystroke re-render, no dropped characters.
+
+See `pair-link-modal.tsx` for the pattern (`useRef`-backed `onChangeText`, no `value=` prop). Always pair the source change with a Maestro `assertVisible` on the input's `id + text` after `inputText`, so regressions are caught immediately.
+
+### Dropdowns that launch native presenters (iOS)
+
+On iOS, when a dropdown menu (`DropdownMenu` / RN `Modal`) item needs to launch a native presenter like `PHPickerViewController` (image picker) or a `UIDocumentPicker`, the callback **must not fire while the `Modal` is still dismissing**. UIKit dismissal completion spans multiple frames beyond React unmount; launching a native presenter mid-dismissal leaves an invisible backdrop mounted that traps every subsequent touch.
+
+`DropdownMenu` handles this by deferring the selected item's `onSelect` until `Modal.onDismiss` fires (UIKit-level dismissal complete), then adds a small extra buffer before invoking it. See `components/ui/dropdown-menu.tsx`'s `selectItem` / `flushPendingSelect`.
+
+When building a new component that composes a dropdown with a native presenter, reuse this dropdown — do not invent a new timing shim.
+
+## Self-verification loops
+
+Maestro can only interact with the app UI — it can't toggle iOS appearance, change locale, or simulate network conditions. For bugs that depend on system-level state, wrap Maestro in a bash script that handles the system changes between Maestro runs.
+
+This pattern also lets agents self-verify fixes without manual user testing.
+
+### Pattern
+
+1. Run baseline Maestro flow (confirm feature works)
+2. Make system-level change via `xcrun simctl` (toggle appearance, etc.)
+3. Re-run Maestro flow (confirm feature still works)
+4. Repeat N iterations to catch intermittent failures
+
+Scripts run `maestro test` from inside a temp directory so screenshots don't dirty the checkout.
+
+See `packages/app/maestro/test-sidebar-theme.sh` for the canonical example:
+
+```bash
+bash packages/app/maestro/test-sidebar-theme.sh 6 1
+# Args: iterations=6, wait_seconds=1 between toggle and test
+```
+
+Key elements of the script pattern:
+
+```bash
+set -euo pipefail
+ITERATIONS="${1:-3}"
+
+for i in $(seq 1 "$ITERATIONS"); do
+  # Toggle system state
+  xcrun simctl ui booted appearance light
+
+  # Wait for change to propagate
+  sleep 1
+
+  # Run Maestro flow and capture result
+  if maestro test "$FLOW" 2>&1 | tee "$ITER_DIR/test.log"; then
+    echo "PASS"
+  else
+    echo "FAIL"
+    xcrun simctl io booted screenshot "$ITER_DIR/failure-state.png"
+  fi
+done
+```
+
+## Unistyles + Reanimated
+
+### The crash
+
+Applying Unistyles theme-reactive styles (`StyleSheet.create((theme) => ...)`) directly to `Animated.View` causes **"Unable to find node on an unmounted component"** on theme change.
+
+Unistyles wraps styled components in `<UnistylesComponent>` and patches native view properties via C++. Reanimated also manages the same native node for animated transforms. When the theme changes, both systems try to update the node simultaneously and the view crashes.
+
+### The fix
+
+Use plain React Native `StyleSheet.create` for static positioning on `Animated.View`. Pass theme-dependent values as inline styles from `useUnistyles()`:
+
+```tsx
+// BAD: Unistyles dynamic style on Animated.View
+const styles = StyleSheet.create((theme) => ({
+  sidebar: {
+    position: "absolute",
+    top: 0,
+    left: 0,
+    bottom: 0,
+    backgroundColor: theme.colors.surfaceSidebar, // theme-reactive
+    overflow: "hidden",
+  },
+}));
+
+<Animated.View style={[styles.sidebar, animatedStyle]} />;
+```
+
+```tsx
+// GOOD: static stylesheet + inline theme values
+import { StyleSheet as RNStyleSheet } from "react-native";
+
+const staticStyles = RNStyleSheet.create({
+  sidebar: {
+    position: "absolute",
+    top: 0,
+    left: 0,
+    bottom: 0,
+    overflow: "hidden",
+  },
+});
+
+const { theme } = useUnistyles();
+
+<Animated.View
+  style={[staticStyles.sidebar, animatedStyle, { backgroundColor: theme.colors.surfaceSidebar }]}
+/>;
+```
+
+Regular `View` components can safely use Unistyles dynamic styles — the conflict is specific to `Animated.View`.
+
+## Native Chat Stream Layout
+
+The native agent stream uses an inverted `FlatList`, so chat layout has three coordinate systems:
+
+- chronological stream order
+- strategy-ordered array order
+- native inverted cell visual order
+
+Do not compute stream neighbors, history/live-head seams, turn footer ownership, assistant block spacing, or tool sequence endings inside React render loops. Those policies live in `packages/app/src/agent-stream/layout.ts` and are unit-tested without React Native rendering.
+
+Platform-specific stream edges belong on `StreamStrategy`:
+
+- forward web uses the last history item as the history/live-head boundary and renders content before a footer
+- native inverted uses the first history item as the history/live-head boundary and compensates for inverted cell child order
+
+If a chat footer looks duplicated or appears above the assistant message on mobile, start with `packages/app/src/agent-stream/layout.test.ts`. Do not add a React Native renderer test for this class of bug; make the pure layout invariant fail first.
+
+## iOS Simulator
+
+```bash
+# Screenshot
+xcrun simctl io booted screenshot /tmp/screenshot.png
+
+# Dark/light mode
+xcrun simctl ui booted appearance          # check current
+xcrun simctl ui booted appearance dark     # set dark
+xcrun simctl ui booted appearance light    # set light
+```
+
+Expo dev server logs are in the tmux pane running `npm run dev`. Daemon logs are at `$PASEO_HOME/daemon.log` (see [development.md](development.md)).

+# OpenCode Global Event Verification
+
+Date: 2026-05-11
+
+## Objective
+
+Replace the OpenCode provider's per-directory `/event` stream with OpenCode's `/global/event` stream and remove the EOF polling recovery path that was added for the `/event` regression.
+
+## Environment
+
+- `opencode --version`: `1.14.46`
+- `which opencode`: `/Users/moboudra/.asdf/installs/nodejs/22.20.0/bin/opencode`
+- `node --version`: `v22.20.0`
+- `npm --version`: `10.9.3`
+
+Each OpenCode test file was run independently with:
+
+```bash
+/opt/homebrew/bin/timeout 420s npx vitest run <file> --maxWorkers=1
+```
+
+## Baseline
+
+Before the provider change, the OpenCode matrix had 16 passing files and 4 failing files:
+
+- `packages/cli/tests/e2e/opencode-invalid-model.test.ts`: Vitest reports "No test suite found in file".
+- `packages/server/src/server/agent/providers/opencode-agent.test.ts`: `plan mode blocks edits while build mode can write files` did not observe a completed tool call.
+- `packages/server/src/server/daemon-e2e/opencode-initial-prompt-wait.real.e2e.test.ts`: brittle unavailable-model assertion received an auth failure from the upstream API.
+- `packages/server/src/server/daemon-e2e/opencode-send-interrupt.real.e2e.test.ts`: timed out waiting for an interrupted sleep tool call, even though the recent bash tool call status was `failed`.
+
+## Post-Change Result
+
+After switching to `/global/event`, removing polling recovery, and replacing the brittle initial-prompt model case with `opencode/big-pickle`, the OpenCode matrix had 18 passing files and 2 baseline-equivalent failing files:
+
+- `packages/cli/tests/e2e/opencode-invalid-model.test.ts`: unchanged; Vitest still reports "No test suite found in file".
+- `packages/server/src/server/daemon-e2e/opencode-send-interrupt.real.e2e.test.ts`: unchanged; still times out after the interrupted sleep tool call is already marked `failed`.
+
+The previously failing provider unit file now passes, and `packages/server/src/server/daemon-e2e/opencode-initial-prompt-wait.real.e2e.test.ts` passes with `opencode/big-pickle`.
+
+One live reasoning-dedup matrix run returned no reasoning content; an immediate targeted rerun passed. This appears model-output dependent rather than related to the event-stream change.
+
+## Focused Verification

+# Adding a New Provider to Paseo
+
+This guide walks through adding a new agent provider end-to-end. There are two integration patterns, and this doc covers both.
+
+## Two Integration Patterns
+
+### ACP (Agent Client Protocol) -- recommended
+
+Extend `ACPAgentClient` from `packages/server/src/server/agent/providers/acp-agent.ts`. The base class handles process spawning, stdio transport, session lifecycle, streaming, permissions, and model discovery. You provide configuration (command, modes, capabilities) and optionally override `isAvailable()` for auth checks.
+
+The only built-in ACP provider today is `copilot` (`copilot-acp-agent.ts`). `GenericACPAgentClient` (`generic-acp-agent.ts`) is also ACP-based but is used for user-defined custom providers configured via `extends: "acp"` overrides — see [docs/custom-providers.md](custom-providers.md).
+
+### Direct
+
+Implement the `AgentClient` and `AgentSession` interfaces from `agent-sdk-types.ts` yourself. This gives full control but requires you to handle process management, streaming, permissions, and session persistence from scratch.
+
+Existing direct providers: `claude` (in `providers/claude/agent.ts`), `codex` (`codex-app-server-agent.ts`), `opencode` (`opencode-agent.ts`), `pi` (`providers/pi/agent.ts`), and `omp` (a Pi-compatible built-in backed by the Pi adapter). The dev-only `mock` provider (`mock-load-test-agent.ts`) is also direct.
+
+Pi is a process-backed provider. Paseo requires the user to have the `pi` binary installed and talks to it through `pi --mode rpc`; the server package does not embed Pi's SDK/runtime packages.
+
+Paseo's per-agent and daemon-wide system prompts are passed to Pi with `--append-system-prompt`, so Pi keeps its default coding prompt while receiving Paseo's additional instructions.
+
+Pi MCP support depends on the open-source `pi-mcp-adapter` extension being loaded for the agent cwd. Probe with Pi RPC `get_commands`; the adapter registers an extension command named `mcp` (often with `sourceInfo.source` containing `pi-mcp-adapter`). When Paseo injects MCP servers into Pi, write a per-agent MCP config and pass it with `--mcp-config` instead of modifying user or project MCP files. For local HTTP servers such as Paseo's own `/mcp/agents` endpoint, explicitly disable adapter OAuth (`auth: false`, `oauth: false`) in the generated config.
+
+Pi import discovery reads Pi's persisted JSONL session files because Pi RPC does not expose a recent-session listing command. Resume and full history hydration still go through `pi --mode rpc` using the session file as `nativeHandle`.
+
+OMP is a built-in Pi-compatible provider, disabled by default. It uses the `omp` command and imports terminal-started sessions from `~/.omp/agent/sessions` when enabled. Other Pi-compatible forks can still be custom providers that extend `pi`, override `command`, and set `params.sessionDir` to their JSONL session directory.
+
+Pi RPC extension UI dialog requests (`select`, `input`, `editor`, `confirm`) are bridged into Paseo question permissions and answered with `extension_ui_response`. Pi extensions such as `ask_user` may chain dialogs: for example, a `select` can be followed by an optional-comment `input`. When an `ask_user` tool call declares `allowComment: true`, Paseo presents the selection and optional comment as one question permission, answers Pi's initial `select` immediately, then auto-answers the follow-up optional `input` with the comment the user already supplied (or an empty string). Preserve placeholders and optional/skip semantics for standalone optional inputs so the app can still distinguish "skip this optional input" from "cancel the whole dialog." Fire-and-forget extension UI requests such as notifications are intentionally ignored by the provider adapter unless Paseo grows first-class UI for them.
+
+OpenCode MCP injection is dynamic and session-scoped. Call OpenCode's `mcp.add` endpoint with the MCP server config and do not follow it with `mcp.connect`; `connect` only toggles MCP servers already present in OpenCode's own config. New OpenCode versions return `McpServerNotFoundError`/404 for `connect` after a dynamic add because the server is not config-backed, while older versions silently swallowed the same missing-config path.
+
+OpenCode owns user message IDs. Do not pass Paseo-generated IDs to OpenCode prompt APIs; let OpenCode create `msg*` IDs and record the user timeline item from the `message.updated` event.
+
+Every provider adapter owns its canonical user-message timeline rows. When a foreground prompt is accepted, the adapter must emit exactly one `user_message` timeline item for that submitted prompt, using the same message ID it gives to or receives from the provider runtime. Optimistic client messages are UI-only and provider transcript echoes are optional; neither is allowed to be the only source of truth. If the provider later echoes the same submitted user message, dedupe by provider-visible message ID, not by text.
+
+Draft metadata lookups should avoid creating provider sessions when the upstream provider has top-level APIs for that metadata. Prefer `AgentClient.listModels`, `listModes`, `listCommands`, or `listFeatures` over creating a scratch `AgentSession`; scratch sessions can show up as empty native sessions in provider import/history UIs.
+
+Provider session import has its own contract. The picker calls `listImportableSessions` and receives rows only: provider handle, cwd, title, prompt previews, and last activity. Import calls `importSession({ providerHandleId, cwd })` for the selected row and must not call listing again. The provider returns the resumed session, storage config, persistence handle, and hydrated timeline for that one native session; `AgentManager.importProviderSession` seeds the daemon timeline and publishes the Paseo agent only after it is ready.
+
+---
+
+## Provider Snapshot Refresh Contract
+
+The daemon keeps provider snapshots per resolved working directory. Missing or blank cwd resolves to the user's home directory. Workspace selectors and old model/mode list requests should pass the cwd that will launch the provider so providers with project-specific models or modes are probed in the right context. Settings/provider management intentionally uses the home-directory snapshot.
+
+Snapshot reads may probe providers only while the requested cwd scope is cold. Once an entry is warm, its `ready`, `error`, or `unavailable` state stays cached until an explicit refresh. Do not add TTL revalidation, focus-triggered refreshes, selector-open refreshes, or config-reload refreshes. Selector-open refetches may read an already-loading or stale React Query, but they must not force provider probing on their own.
+
+Settings refresh is the user-facing "forget stale provider knowledge everywhere" action. A settings refresh clears provider snapshot caches and in-flight loads across all cwd scopes, then immediately refreshes only the home-directory snapshot with `force: true`. Workspace snapshots are re-probed lazily on the next scoped read; do not fan out a settings refresh across every known workspace.
+
+Registry/config replacement may update visible metadata such as label, description, default mode, enabled state, and provider membership, but it must not spawn provider processes. If a provider needs to be re-probed after a config change, route that through the explicit settings refresh path.
+
+Boundary tests should assert observable behavior: cold reads may call provider availability/model/mode discovery for that cwd; warm reads and registry replacement must not; explicit workspace refreshes affect only one cwd; settings refresh wipes all scopes but immediately refreshes only home.
+
+---
+
+## ACP Provider Checklist
+
+### 1. Create the provider class
+
+Create `packages/server/src/server/agent/providers/{name}-agent.ts`.
+
+Define capabilities, modes, and a thin subclass of `ACPAgentClient`:
+
+```ts
+import type { Logger } from "pino";
+import type { AgentCapabilityFlags, AgentMode } from "../agent-sdk-types.js";
+import type { ProviderRuntimeSettings } from "../provider-launch-config.js";
+import { ACPAgentClient } from "./acp-agent.js";
+
+const MY_PROVIDER_CAPABILITIES: AgentCapabilityFlags = {
+  supportsStreaming: true,
+  supportsSessionPersistence: true,
+  supportsDynamicModes: true,
+  supportsMcpServers: true,
+  supportsReasoningStream: true,
+  supportsToolInvocations: true,
+};
+
+const MY_PROVIDER_MODES: AgentMode[] = [
+  {
+    id: "default",
+    label: "Default",
+    description: "Standard agent mode",
+  },
+  // Add more modes as needed
+];
+
+type MyProviderClientOptions = {
+  logger: Logger;
+  runtimeSettings?: ProviderRuntimeSettings;
+};
+
+export class MyProviderACPAgentClient extends ACPAgentClient {

+    super({
+      provider: "my-provider", // Must match the ID used everywhere else
+      logger: options.logger,
+      runtimeSettings: options.runtimeSettings,
+      defaultCommand: ["my-agent-binary", "--acp"], // CLI command to spawn
+      defaultModes: MY_PROVIDER_MODES,
+      capabilities: MY_PROVIDER_CAPABILITIES,
+    });
+  }
+
+  // Override isAvailable() if the provider needs specific auth/env vars
+  override async isAvailable(): Promise<boolean> {
+    if (!(await super.isAvailable())) {
+      return false; // Binary not found
+    }
+    return Boolean(process.env["MY_PROVIDER_API_KEY"]);
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The `super.isAvailable()` call checks that the binary from `defaultCommand` is on `$PATH`. Override only to add credential checks on top.
+
+For reference, here is how Copilot does it -- no auth override needed because the CLI handles auth itself:
+
+```ts
+export class CopilotACPAgentClient extends ACPAgentClient {
+  constructor(options: CopilotACPAgentClientOptions) {
+    super({
+      provider: "copilot",
+      logger: options.logger,
+      runtimeSettings: options.runtimeSettings,
+      defaultCommand: ["copilot", "--acp"],
+      defaultModes: COPILOT_MODES,
+      capabilities: COPILOT_CAPABILITIES,
+    });
+  }
+
+  override async isAvailable(): Promise<boolean> {
+    return super.isAvailable();
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Add to the provider manifest
+
+In `packages/server/src/server/agent/provider-manifest.ts`, add mode definitions with UI metadata (icons, color tiers) and a provider definition entry.
+
+First, define the modes with visual metadata:
+
+```ts
+const MY_PROVIDER_MODES: AgentProviderModeDefinition[] = [
+  {
+    id: "default",
+    label: "Default",
+    description: "Standard agent mode",
+    icon: "ShieldCheck",
+    colorTier: "safe",
+  },
+  {
+    id: "autonomous",
+    label: "Autonomous",
+    description: "Runs without prompting",
+    icon: "ShieldOff",
+    colorTier: "dangerous",
+  },
+];
+```
+
+Available `colorTier` values: `"safe"`, `"moderate"`, `"dangerous"`, `"planning"`.
+Available `icon` values: `"ShieldCheck"`, `"ShieldAlert"`, `"ShieldOff"`.
+
+Then add to the `AGENT_PROVIDER_DEFINITIONS` array:
+
+```ts
+export const AGENT_PROVIDER_DEFINITIONS: AgentProviderDefinition[] = [
+  // ... existing providers ...
+  {
+    id: "my-provider",
+    label: "My Provider",
+    description: "Short description of the provider",
+    defaultModeId: "default",
+    modes: MY_PROVIDER_MODES,
+    // Optional: enable voice
+    voice: {
+      enabled: true,
+      defaultModeId: "default",
+      defaultModel: "some-model",
+    },
+  },
+];
+```
+
+### 3. Add the factory to the provider registry
+
+In `packages/server/src/server/agent/provider-registry.ts`, import your class and add a factory entry to `PROVIDER_CLIENT_FACTORIES`:
+
+```ts
+import { MyProviderACPAgentClient } from "./providers/my-provider-agent.js";
+
+const PROVIDER_CLIENT_FACTORIES: Record<string, ProviderClientFactory> = {
+  // ... existing factories ...
+  "my-provider": (logger, runtimeSettings) =>
+    new MyProviderACPAgentClient({
+      logger,
+      runtimeSettings,
+    }),
+};
+```
+
+The factory is invoked with `(logger, runtimeSettings, options)`; `options.workspaceGitService` is also available if you need it (see the `codex` factory for an example). The registry already passes the per-provider runtime settings slice through, so you don't index into the map yourself.
+
+### 4. Add a provider icon (app)
+
+Create `packages/app/src/components/icons/my-provider-icon.tsx` following the pattern from existing icons (e.g., `claude-icon.tsx`):
+
+```tsx
+import Svg, { Path } from "react-native-svg";
+
+interface MyProviderIconProps {
+  size?: number;
+  color?: string;
+}
+
+export function MyProviderIcon({ size = 16, color = "currentColor" }: MyProviderIconProps) {
+  return (
+    <Svg width={size} height={size} viewBox="0 0 24 24" fill={color}>
+      <Path d="..." />
+    </Svg>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+Then register it in `packages/app/src/components/provider-icons.ts` by adding an entry to the existing `PROVIDER_ICONS` map (which already covers the built-in providers):
+
+```ts
+import { MyProviderIcon } from "@/components/icons/my-provider-icon";
+
+const PROVIDER_ICONS: Record<string, typeof Bot> = {
+  // ... existing entries ...
+  "my-provider": MyProviderIcon as unknown as typeof Bot,
+};
+```
+
+If no icon is registered, `getProviderIcon()` falls back to a generic `Bot` icon from lucide.
+
+### 5. Add E2E test config
+
+In `packages/server/src/server/daemon-e2e/agent-configs.ts`, add your provider:
+
+```ts
+export const agentConfigs = {
+  // ... existing configs ...
+  "my-provider": {
+    provider: "my-provider",
+    model: "default-model-id",
+    modes: {
+      full: "autonomous", // Mode with no permission prompts
+      ask: "default", // Mode that requires permission approval
+    },
+  },
+} as const satisfies Record<string, AgentTestConfig>;
+```
+
+Add an availability check in `isProviderAvailable()`. Note `isCommandAvailable` is async, so all branches `await` it:
+
+```ts
+case "my-provider":
+  return (
+    (await isCommandAvailable("my-agent-binary")) &&
+    Boolean(process.env.MY_PROVIDER_API_KEY)
+  );
+```
+
+Add to the `allProviders` array (current built-ins are `claude`, `codex`, `copilot`, `opencode`, `pi`, `omp`):
+
+```ts
+export const allProviders: AgentProvider[] = [
+  "claude",
+  "codex",
+  "copilot",
+  "opencode",
+  "pi",
+  "my-provider",
+];
+```
+
+### 6. Run typecheck
+
+```bash
+npm run typecheck
+```
+
+This is required after every change per project rules.
+
+---
+
+## Direct Provider Checklist
+
+If your agent does not speak ACP, implement the interfaces from `agent-sdk-types.ts` directly.
+
+### Interfaces to implement
+
+The interfaces below are abridged signatures — read `agent-sdk-types.ts` for the full source of truth (option bag types, generics, etc.).
+
+**`AgentClient`** -- factory for sessions and model/mode listing:
+
+```ts
+interface AgentClient {
+  readonly provider: AgentProvider;
+  readonly capabilities: AgentCapabilityFlags;
+  createSession(
+    config: AgentSessionConfig,
+    launchContext?: AgentLaunchContext,
+    options?: AgentCreateSessionOptions,
+  ): Promise<AgentSession>;
+  resumeSession(
+    handle: AgentPersistenceHandle,
+    overrides?: Partial<AgentSessionConfig>,
+    launchContext?: AgentLaunchContext,
+  ): Promise<AgentSession>;
+  listModels(options: ListModelsOptions): Promise<AgentModelDefinition[]>;
+  isAvailable(): Promise<boolean>;
+  // Optional:
+  listModes?(options: ListModesOptions): Promise<AgentMode[]>;
+  listImportableSessions?(
+    options?: ListImportableSessionsOptions,
+  ): Promise<ImportableProviderSession[]>;
+  importSession?(
+    input: ImportProviderSessionInput,
+    context: ImportProviderSessionContext,
+  ): Promise<ImportedProviderSession>;
+  getDiagnostic?(): Promise<{ diagnostic: string }>;
+}
+```
+
+**`AgentSession`** -- a running agent conversation:
+
+```ts
+interface AgentSession {
+  readonly provider: AgentProvider;
+  readonly id: string | null;
+  readonly capabilities: AgentCapabilityFlags;
+  readonly features?: AgentFeature[];
+  run(prompt: AgentPromptInput, options?: AgentRunOptions): Promise<AgentRunResult>;
+  startTurn(prompt: AgentPromptInput, options?: AgentRunOptions): Promise<{ turnId: string }>;
+  subscribe(callback: (event: AgentStreamEvent) => void): () => void;
+  streamHistory(): AsyncGenerator<AgentStreamEvent>;
+  getRuntimeInfo(): Promise<AgentRuntimeInfo>;
+  getAvailableModes(): Promise<AgentMode[]>;
+  getCurrentMode(): Promise<string | null>;
+  setMode(modeId: string): Promise<void>;
+  getPendingPermissions(): AgentPermissionRequest[];
+  respondToPermission(
+    requestId: string,
+    response: AgentPermissionResponse,
+  ): Promise<AgentPermissionResult | void>;
+  describePersistence(): AgentPersistenceHandle | null;
+  interrupt(): Promise<void>;
+  close(): Promise<void>;
+  // Optional:
+  listCommands?(): Promise<AgentSlashCommand[]>;
+  setModel?(modelId: string | null): Promise<void>;
+  setThinkingOption?(thinkingOptionId: string | null): Promise<void>;
+  setFeature?(featureId: string, value: unknown): Promise<void>;
+  tryHandleOutOfBand?(prompt: AgentPromptInput): {
+    run(ctx: { emit: (event: AgentStreamEvent) => void }): Promise<void>;
+  } | null;
+}
+```
+
+### Steps
+
+1. Create `packages/server/src/server/agent/providers/{name}-agent.ts` implementing both interfaces
+2. Add to the provider manifest (same as ACP step 2 above)
+3. Add factory to the registry (same as ACP step 3 above)
+4. Add icon (same as ACP step 4 above)
+5. Add E2E config (same as ACP step 5 above)
+6. Run typecheck
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+### Manual testing with the CLI
+
+Start the daemon if not already running, then:
+
+```bash
+# Launch an agent with your provider
+paseo run --provider my-provider
+
+# Launch with a specific model and mode
+paseo run --provider my-provider --model some-model --mode default
+
+# List running agents
+paseo ls -a -g
+
+# Check if the provider reports models
+paseo models --provider my-provider
+```
+
+### E2E test patterns
+
+The E2E configs in `agent-configs.ts` expose two helpers:
+
+- `getFullAccessConfig(provider)` -- returns config for a session with no permission prompts
+- `getAskModeConfig(provider)` -- returns config for a session that triggers permission requests
+
+Tests use `isProviderAvailable(provider)` to skip when the binary or credentials are missing, so CI will not fail for providers that are not installed.
+
+---
+
+## Gotchas
+
+**Mode IDs can be URIs.** ACP providers like Copilot use full URIs as mode IDs (e.g., `"https://agentclientprotocol.com/protocol/session-modes#agent"`). Never assume mode IDs are simple strings. The manifest `defaultModeId` must match exactly.
+
+**Models and modes are discovered dynamically.** ACP providers report available models and modes at runtime via the protocol. The static definitions in `provider-manifest.ts` are used for UI scaffolding (icons, color tiers) but the runtime values from the agent process are the source of truth.
+
+**`AgentProvider` is always `string`.** The type alias is `type AgentProvider = string`. Provider IDs are validated against the manifest at runtime, not at the type level.
+
+**Auth patterns vary.** Some providers need API keys in env vars (`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `OPENAI_API_KEY`), some use OAuth tokens (`CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN`), some use auth files (`~/.codex/auth.json`), and some handle auth entirely in their CLI binary (Copilot). Your `isAvailable()` method should check whatever is needed.
+
+**The manifest mode list and the agent class mode list are separate.** The manifest in `provider-manifest.ts` includes UI metadata (`icon`, `colorTier`). The agent class defines modes without UI metadata (just `id`, `label`, `description`). Keep them in sync.
+
+**`defaultCommand` is a tuple.** The first element is the binary name, the rest are default arguments. The base class uses this to find the executable and spawn the process.
+
+**Runtime settings can override the command.** Users can configure custom binary paths or environment variables per provider via `ProviderRuntimeSettings`. Your factory in the registry should pass `runtimeSettings?.["your-provider"]` through to the constructor.

+# Session God-File Decomposition Plan
+
+`packages/server/src/server/session.ts` — 9116 lines, one `Session` class (declared line 724), 128 handlers, ~60 instance fields, 7 entangled domains. Goal: a **strictly behavior-preserving, incremental** decomposition into per-domain controllers, mirroring the existing `TerminalSessionController`.
+
+## Chosen strategy: controller-context (per-domain option-bag controllers)
+
+Each domain becomes a controller class in its own file with the **exact** contract the repo already proved twice (`TerminalSessionController` at `packages/server/src/terminal/terminal-session-controller.ts`, and `CreateAgentLifecycleDispatch`):
+
+- An **options-bag constructor** injecting only what that domain reads.
+- An **owned-type `ReadonlySet`** of message types.
+- A **NON-async `dispatch(msg): Promise<void> | undefined`** that checks the owned-type set FIRST and returns `undefined` synchronously on a miss (verified at terminal-session-controller.ts:140-143).
+- `start()` wired from `subscribeToOptionalManagers`, `dispose()` called by the shell's ordered `cleanup()`.
+
+Session shrinks to a connection/dispatch shell: it keeps `handleMessage`, the `??` chain (1739-1751), `emit`/`emitBinary`, `sessionLogger`, connection identity, inflight metrics, lifecycle intents, and the **ordered** `cleanup()`. Each `dispatchXMessage` collapses to `return this.xController.dispatch(msg)`.
+
+### Why this is safe at the dispatch seam (verified)
+
+`dispatchInboundMessage` builds `a() ?? b() ?? ... ?? dispatchMiscMessage()` and short-circuits on the first non-`undefined` **Promise object** (not its resolved value). Message-type spaces are **disjoint** (no duplicate `case` labels across switches), so at most one dispatcher matches any message — collapsing to delegation cannot change which handler runs. `dispatchTerminalMessage` (2150-2153) already proves this. Two quirks preserved verbatim: schedule/\* is reached via the chat dispatcher's OWN `default` arm (2183), not the top-level `??`; and `start_workspace_script_request` (a workspace type) is special-cased before terminal delegation (2150).
+
+Rejected alternatives: **feature-module** (free functions + wide context bag) cannot own the live state machines (workspaceUpdatesSubscription, agentUpdatesSubscription, ~25 voice fields) and adds a competing idiom; **mixin-composition** preserves the shared-`this` god object verbatim and requires widening ~325 private fields to protected.
+
+## Slice ordering (least-coupled first)
+
+The task recommended **git/checkout as the first slice — OVERRIDDEN.** Verification: `emitCheckoutStatusUpdate` is called from exactly ONE site (session.ts:4915), inside the workspace-owned `syncWorkspaceGitObserver` callback that ALSO fires workspace effects over shared watch-target maps. Extracting checkout first forces splitting the hardest workspace/git seam before workspace is touched. The strictly safer first cuts are **chat-schedule-loop** (only knot: `handleChatPostRequest`; touches no shared observer/git/voice state) and **provider-catalog** (one shared collaborator + injected predicates).

+
+---
+
+## Slice 0 — Test net + disjointness tripwire (prerequisite)
+
+No production code moves. Add `session.dispatch-seam.test.ts`. This is the gate the whole plan rests on, because chat/schedule/loop have **zero** handleMessage coverage today (verified).
+
+Write RED-then-GREEN against the **current in-place** Session:
+
+- `chat/post` happy path (asserts `chat/post` response emitted) + fanout-limit error path (asserts the `chat/post` error envelope, NOT a bubbled `rpc_error`).
+- one `schedule/*` and one `loop/*` round-trip.
+- a handler that throws **synchronously** emits `rpc_error{code:"handler_error"}` + an `activity_log` error frame.
+- a handler that **rejects async** emits the SAME pair.
+- a table-driven assertion that the union of all controllers' owned-type `ReadonlySet`s is pairwise disjoint and covers the dispatched `SessionInboundMessage` union (grows as controllers land).
+
+**Tests:** `session.dispatch-seam.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 1 — ChatScheduleLoopController ← STOP FOR HUMAN REVIEW after this ships green
+
+**Move:** all 21 handlers (`handleChat*` ×7, `handleSchedule*` ×9, `handleLoop*` ×5), the three rpc-error emitters (`emitChatRpcError`/`emitScheduleRpcError`/`emitLoopRpcError` — **kept separate, not merged**), `toScheduleSummary` → `packages/server/src/server/chat/chat-schedule-loop-controller.ts`. Collapse `dispatchChatScheduleLoopMessage` + `dispatchScheduleMessage` to `return this.chatScheduleLoopController.dispatch(msg)`.
+
+**SessionContext surface:** `emit`, `sessionLogger`, `clientId` (authorAgentId fallback), `chatService`, `scheduleService`, `loopService`, and a narrow agent-control port `{ listAgents, resolveAgentIdentifier, agentStorage.list }` for `handleChatPostRequest` mention fanout.
+
+**Owned-type set MUST include all 7 `chat/*` + 5 `loop/*` + 9 `schedule/*` types** — schedule/\* is currently routed via the chat dispatcher's own `default` arm, so it must stay inside this one controller, or schedule requests silently no-op.
+
+**Behavior note:** least-coupled domain. Move the three rpc-error emitters verbatim (they differ in default code + the `ChatServiceError` branch). **Tests:** `session.dispatch-seam.test.ts`, `loop-service.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 2 — ProviderCatalogController
+
+**Move:** 7 provider handlers + `emitProviderDisabledResponse` + `getProviderSnapshotEntryForRead` → `packages/server/src/server/provider/provider-catalog-controller.ts`. Move the `providers_snapshot_update` PUSH wiring (1235-1254) into the controller's `start()`/`dispose()`. Collapse `dispatchProviderMessage`.
+
+**SessionContext surface:** `emit`, `sessionLogger`, `providerSnapshotManager` (**shared by reference** — stays a daemon singleton read by checkout/lifecycle/workspace), `isProviderVisibleToClient` (predicate closing over `this`, reads `appVersion` live), `downgradeModeIconsForClient`, `downgradeEntryModesForClient`, agent-control reads `{ listProviderAvailability, listDraftFeatures }`.
+
+**Behavior note:** COMPAT correctness — PUSH and PULL paths MUST call the SAME injected visibility/downgrade closures, reading `appVersion` LIVE (mutated post-construction via `updateAppVersion`). Keep `COMPAT(providersSnapshot)` and `COMPAT(customModeIcons)` comments verbatim. Do NOT pull `resolveStructuredGenerationProviders`/`getFocusedAgentSelectionForCwd` in. **Tests:** `session.dispatch-seam.test.ts`, `daemon-e2e/models.e2e.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 3 — Split the shared observer seams (prerequisite, no controller)
+
+In-place refactor on the shell, two named fan-outs:
+
+1. **workspace-git observer** (4910-4917): make `emitCheckoutStatusUpdate` and `onBranchChanged` injectable callbacks; keep `workspaceGitWatchTargets`/`workspaceGitSubscriptions` shared by reference.
+2. **agentManager.subscribe callback** (~1298): refactor into `{ onAgentUpdate, shouldAutoAllowVoicePermission(event), onStreamEvent }`.
+
+**Behavior note:** the single hardest seam, split exactly once before the two domains that co-own it. The observer fires BOTH workspace (`handleWorkspaceGitBranchSnapshot`, `emitWorkspaceUpdateForCwd`) and checkout (`emitCheckoutStatusUpdate`) effects; the agent-subscribe callback is invoked by agent EVENTS (not the `??` chain) and does lifecycle + voice work. Add a test asserting BOTH a `workspace_update` and a `checkout_status_update` fire from one simulated git snapshot change, and a voice-permission test for the auto-allow path. **Tests:** `session.workspace-git-watch.test.ts`, `session.workspaces.test.ts`, `voice-permission-policy.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 4 — GitCheckoutController
+
+**Move:** ~22 `checkout_*`/`stash_*`/PR/github handlers + `handleSubscribeCheckoutDiffRequest`/`handleUnsubscribeCheckoutDiffRequest` + `emitCheckoutStatusUpdate` + `checkoutDiffSubscriptions` → `packages/server/src/server/checkout/git-checkout-controller.ts`. Collapse `dispatchCheckoutMessage`.
+
+**SessionContext surface:** `emit`, `sessionLogger`, `checkoutDiffManager` (move in + dispose teardown), `github` (shared), `workspaceGitService` (**shared spine**), `workspaceGitWatchTargets`/`workspaceGitSubscriptions` (**shared**), `providerSnapshotManager.listRegisteredProviderIds`. `emitCheckoutStatusUpdate` is now owned here and injected back into the workspace observer seam from Slice 3.
+
+**Behavior note:** safe now that Slice 3 split the observer. `checkoutDiffSubscriptions` teardown moves to `dispose()`, called by `cleanup()` at its current ordinal (8530). **Tests:** `session.dispatch-seam.test.ts`, `checkout-diff-manager.test.ts`, `daemon-e2e/checkout-diff-subscription.e2e.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 5 — WorkspaceController (XL)
+
+**Move:** all workspace handlers (incl. re-homed `handleProjectRenameRequest` and `start_workspace_script_request`) + ~25 private workspace helpers + the whole `workspaceUpdatesSubscription` state machine → `packages/server/src/server/workspace/workspace-controller.ts`.
+
+**SessionContext surface:** `emit`, `sessionLogger`, `projectRegistry`/`workspaceRegistry`/`downloadTokenStore`/script stores/editor cache (**owned**), `workspaceGitService` + watch maps (**shared with checkout**), injected `emitCheckoutStatusUpdate`/`onBranchChanged`, `terminalManager`/`killTerminalsUnderPath`, an `agentUpdatesSubscription` write via a narrow `bufferAgentUpdate` command, `providerSnapshotManager.listRegisteredProviderIds`.
+
+**Behavior note:** the workspaceUpdatesSubscription machine moves WHOLE. The eight already-public workspace methods stay a public surface re-exposed via the shell. Re-homes are atomic remove-from-old-dispatcher + add-to-new-owned-set. **Tests:** `session.workspaces.test.ts`, `session.workspace-git-watch.test.ts`, `session.workspace-resolution-invariants.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 6 — Voice prerequisites (emit purity + abort ownership)
+
+In-place, separately reviewable. Split the `audio_output` TTS-debug branch out of `emit()` (8421-8468, bypasses to `onMessage` at 8454) so `emit` is a pure trace+onMessage sink. Move `convertPCMToWavBuffer` (674-701) to `speech/audio.ts`. Decide abortController ownership.
+
+**Behavior note:** TTS-debug split and abortController ownership are the SAME decision (`ttsDebugStreams.clear()` is tied to `createAbortController` reassignment at 8359). Keep `emit` (with the universal trace) on the shell and inject it everywhere — no trace-less emit. Do NOT inject the AbortController by value. Add: a TTS-debug persistence test (with the debug env flag) before the move, and a barge-in→cleanup regression test asserting the NEW run's signal is aborted. **Tests:** `voice-roundtrip.e2e.test.ts`, `voice-permission-policy.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 7 — VoiceSessionController (XL)
+
+**Move:** voice handlers + ~25 voice fields + the TTS-debug hook (Slice 6) + `voiceModeAgentId`/`isVoiceMode` + the `shouldAutoAllowVoicePermission` predicate (Slice 3) → `packages/server/src/server/voice/voice-session-controller.ts`. Carve voice types out of `dispatchVoiceAndControlMessage`, leaving infra (restart/shutdown/heartbeat/ping/abort) on the shell.
+
+**SessionContext surface:** pure `emit`, `emitBinary`, `hasBinaryChannel`, `sessionLogger`/`sessionId`/`paseoHome`, `getSpeechReadiness`, agent-control port `{ loadAgent, reloadWithSystemPrompt, interruptIfRunning, isRunning, sendSpokenText, buildAgentPrompt }`, `getSignal`/`abortCurrent` (Slice 6).
+
+**Behavior note:** depends on Slices 3 + 6. `cleanup()` stays the ordered orchestrator and calls `voiceController.dispose()` at the position the inlined voice teardown occupies today (8505-8525). **Tests:** `voice-roundtrip.e2e.test.ts`, `voice-local-agent.e2e.test.ts`, `session.voice-mcp-config.test.ts`, `session.test.ts`.
+
+---
+
+## Slice 8a — Agent-lifecycle config setters
+
+Parameterize the 4 setter envelopes `handleSetAgentMode/Model/Feature/Thinking` (4209-4390) into one helper; re-home `handleListCommandsRequest` (misfiled in `dispatchMiscMessage`). Add a handleMessage-driven **failure** test per setter (force the command to reject, assert both the `*_response{accepted:false}` AND the `activity_log` error frame in order) BEFORE collapsing. **Tests:** `session.test.ts`, `session.lifecycle-boundary.test.ts`.
+
+## Slice 8b — AgentLifecycleController (XL, LAST)
+
+**Move:** remaining lifecycle handlers + the `agentUpdatesSubscription` fan-out (`bufferOrEmitAgentUpdate`, `flushBootstrappedAgentUpdates`, `matchesAgentFilter`, `forwardAgentUpdate`) → `packages/server/src/server/agent/agent-lifecycle-controller.ts`. Collapse the three lifecycle dispatchers.
+
+**SessionContext surface:** `emit`, `sessionLogger`, `agentManager`/`agentStorage` (**owned**), injected `forwardAgentUpdate` → `buildProjectPlacementForCwd` (backed by WorkspaceController), `agentUpdatesSubscription` accessor (owned; workspace writes via `bufferAgentUpdate`), `isProviderVisibleToClient`, `resolveCreateAgentWorkspace`, `supports`, `mcpBaseUrl`, `terminalController.killTerminalForClose`.
+
+**Behavior note:** done LAST — the shared-projection hub. `handleCloseItemsRequest` splits its terminal-kill half from its agent-archive half. **Tests:** `session.test.ts`, `session.wait-for-finish.test.ts`, `session.create-agent-title.test.ts`, `session.lifecycle-boundary.test.ts`, `daemon-client.e2e.test.ts`.

+## Cross-cutting invariants (every slice)

+- **Always** run `npm run typecheck` and `npm run lint` after each slice; run `npm run build:server` before diagnosing cross-package type errors.
+- Controller `dispatch` is **NON-async**, guarded by an owned-type `ReadonlySet` check returning `undefined` synchronously on miss. Never `async dispatch`.
+- Controllers add **no** try/catch inside `dispatch` — error handling stays in `handleMessage`.
+- `cleanup()` stays the single ordered teardown orchestrator on the shell.
+- Move domain error emitters **verbatim**; treat any cross-domain emitter merge as a separate, test-guarded change.
+- Per-slice typecheck/lint/format via `npm run` scripts; never re-run the full suite locally (run only the listed files with `--bail=1`).

+# Release
+
+All workspaces share one version and release together.
+
+## Two steps
+
+A release has exactly two steps. The agent does the first, the user authorizes the second.
+
+**Preparation** (local, reversible — agent does this):
+
+- format, lint, typecheck all green
+- ACP provider catalog drift checked with `npm run acp:version-drift:check`;
+  if stale package-runner pins are intentional, say so explicitly, otherwise run
+  `npm run acp:version-drift:update` and commit the updated catalog
+- draft the changelog, show it to the user, wait for review
+- run the pre-release sanity check, surface findings to the user
+- confirm CI is green
+
+**Go-ahead** (user says "go ahead"):
+
+- commit the approved changelog
+- run the release
+
+Rules that apply to both steps:
+
+- Last-minute changes always need approval. Every time.
+- No code changes bundled into the changelog commit or the release commit. Code shims live in their own commit, reviewed on their own merits.
+- A sanity-check finding is information, not a directive. The agent surfaces it; the user decides.
+- Invoking a release skill is intent to start the flow, not blanket authorization to publish.
+
+## Two paths
+
+There are two supported ways to ship from `main`:
+
+1. **Direct stable release**: you are ready to ship the current `main` commit to everyone immediately.
+2. **Beta flow**: silent release candidates. Betas don't touch the changelog, don't move the website, and publish npm only on the explicit `beta` dist-tag.
+
+## Standard release (patch)
+
+Before running any stable patch release command:
+
+- Make sure the intended release commit is already committed to `main` and the working tree is clean.
+- **Run `npm run format`, `npm run lint`, and `npm run typecheck` and commit any resulting changes BEFORE you start any `release:*` command.** `release:check` runs `npm install --workspaces --include-workspace-root` as part of `release:prepare`, which can mutate `package-lock.json` (e.g. churning `"dev": true` markers on optional deps). The next step, `version:all:*`, runs `npm version` which aborts when the working tree is dirty. If this happens mid-flight you have to commit the lockfile churn before retrying — and the pre-commit format hook will reject a lockfile-only commit because oxfmt internally skips `package-lock.json` while lefthook's glob still matches it. Avoid the whole mess by running format/lint/typecheck first, then `release:prepare` once on its own to absorb any lockfile churn into a normal commit, then start the release.
+- Do not use `npm run release:patch` as a substitute for checking whether the current commit is actually ready.
+
+```bash
+npm run release:patch
+```
+
+This bumps the version across all workspaces, runs checks, publishes to npm, and pushes the branch + tag. The tag push triggers `Desktop Release`, `Android APK Release`, and `Release Notes Sync` on GitHub Actions. EAS picks up the same tag via the EAS GitHub app and starts the iOS + Android store builds in parallel (see "Mobile builds (EAS)" below) — there is no `release-mobile.yml` in this repo.
+
+**Releases are always patch.** "Release paseo", "release stable", "ship stable", and similar always mean a patch bump from the previous stable. Never bump minor or major to trigger a build, ever — minor and major bumps are reserved for genuinely larger product cuts and require an explicit user instruction with the word "minor" or "major". If you find yourself reaching for `release:minor` to retrigger a failed build, you are doing the wrong thing — push a retry tag instead (see "Fixing a failed release build" below).
+
+**Stable means stable.** If the user says "stable" or "ship stable", do not ask whether they want a beta first. They picked stable; treat it as a direct stable release. Only run the beta flow when the user explicitly says "beta".
+
+## Manual step-by-step
+
+```bash
+npm run typecheck            # Verify the exact commit you intend to release
+npm run release:check        # Typecheck, build, dry-run pack
+npm run version:all:patch    # Bump version, create commit + tag
+npm run release:publish      # Publish to npm
+npm run release:push         # Push HEAD + tag (triggers CI workflows)
+```
+
+## Beta flow
+
+```bash
+npm run release:beta:patch       # Bump to X.Y.Z-beta.1, publish npm beta, push commit + tag
+# ... test desktop and APK prerelease assets from GitHub Releases ...
+npm run release:beta:next        # Optional: cut X.Y.Z-beta.2, beta.3, ...
+npm run release:promote          # Promote X.Y.Z-beta.N to stable X.Y.Z
+```
+
+- Beta tags are published GitHub prereleases like `v0.1.41-beta.1`
+- Betas publish npm packages with `--tag beta`, so `npm install @getpaseo/cli@beta` opts in while plain `npm install @getpaseo/cli` stays on `latest`
+- Betas publish desktop assets and APKs for testing, but they do not trigger the production web/mobile release flows
+- `release:promote` creates a fresh stable tag like `v0.1.41`; the final release never reuses the beta tag
+- Desktop assets now come from the Electron package at `packages/desktop`
+- Beta releases use Electron's `beta` update channel. Users on the stable channel only receive stable releases; users on the beta channel receive beta releases and the final stable release when it is published.
+- **Betas don't touch `CHANGELOG.md`.** Beta GitHub releases ship with empty notes — that's intentional. The changelog entry is written once, at promotion time, covering the full stable-to-stable diff. The release-notes sync script skips betas cleanly because no matching section exists.
+
+Use the beta path when you need to:
+
+- smoke a build yourself before promoting it to everyone
+- test a build manually in a Linux or Windows VM
+- send a build to a user who is hitting a specific problem
+- iterate on `beta.1`, `beta.2`, `beta.3`, and so on before deciding to ship broadly
+
+## Staged rollout (stable channel)
+
+Stable desktop releases go out via a linear time-based rollout for automatic update checks: 0% admitted when the updater manifests appear, 100% admitted 36 hours later, linear ramp in between. Manual checks bypass the rollout so a user can install immediately when they click **Check**. Beta releases bypass the rollout entirely — beta users always receive updates immediately.
+
+The rollout is driven by a `rolloutHours` field stamped into the GitHub Release manifests (`latest-mac.yml`, `latest-linux.yml`, `latest.yml`) by the `finalize-rollout` job in `desktop-release.yml`.
+
+Desktop release builds now publish in two phases:
+
+- Platform build jobs upload the installers/packages (`.dmg`, `.zip`, `.exe`, `.AppImage`, etc.) to the GitHub release.
+- The final job merges/stamps the manifests and uploads all `.yml` files only after they already contain the final `releaseDate` and `rolloutHours`.
+
+Updater clients only discover a release through those `.yml` manifests, so there is no silent 100% admission window before rollout metadata is present.
+
+### Default behavior
+
+`npm run release:patch` → tag push → 36h ramp. No extra action needed.
+
+The `rollout_hours` input on `desktop-release.yml` is **only read on `workflow_dispatch`** — tag-push runs always default to 36. To get any other rollout duration on a fresh release, use the post-publish flip below.
+
+### Instant-admit release (rollout_hours=0 from publish)
+
+For a fresh release that should admit everyone immediately (low-risk change, doc-only, hotfix, or just a release you want out fast), cut the release normally and queue the rollout flip immediately after:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Cut and publish (default 36h ramp from tag push).
+npm run release:patch
+
+# 2. Immediately queue the flip — runs as soon as finalize-rollout completes.
+gh workflow run desktop-rollout.yml \
+  -f tag=v0.1.64 \
+  -f rollout_hours=0
+```
+
+**Why this is gap-free:** `desktop-release.yml`'s `finalize-rollout` job and `desktop-rollout.yml` share the concurrency group `desktop-rollout-<tag>`. Dispatching `desktop-rollout.yml` while the tag-push pipeline is still running queues it safely behind `finalize-rollout`. The first public manifests already carry `rolloutHours=36`, then `desktop-rollout.yml` flips them to `rolloutHours=0` shortly afterward. The renderer polls every 30 minutes, so active stable users pick up the new manifest on their next check.
+
+Run the dispatch right after `release:patch` returns. Don't wait for the tag-push CI to finish.
+
+### Adjusting an already-published release
+
+To change the rollout duration on a release that's already shipped — e.g. flip a hotfix to instant admit, or slow a release down — use the dedicated `desktop-rollout.yml` workflow. It edits the manifests in place on the GitHub release without rebuilding anything. It only rewrites `rolloutHours`; `releaseDate` is preserved, so the rollout clock keeps ticking from the original publish time.
+
+**Hotfix (instant admit) on an already-shipped release:**
+
+```bash
+gh workflow run desktop-rollout.yml \
+  -f tag=v0.1.42 \
+  -f rollout_hours=0
+```
+
+`rollout_hours=0` admits 100% of stable users on their next update check (within ~30 min for active clients).
+
+**Slow a rollout down** (e.g. extend total duration to 72h since the original release):
+
+```bash
+gh workflow run desktop-rollout.yml \
+  -f tag=v0.1.42 \
+  -f rollout_hours=72
+```
+
+`rollout_hours` is **total duration since the original release date**, not "extend by N more hours from now." If `v0.1.42` was published 2h ago and you set `rollout_hours=72`, the ramp finishes 70h from now.
+
+The dispatch is idempotent and shares the `desktop-rollout-<tag>` concurrency group with `desktop-release.yml`'s `finalize-rollout` job, so it serializes safely against an in-flight tag-push pipeline targeting the same release.
+
+### Custom ramp on a manually-dispatched build
+
+`desktop-release.yml` accepts `rollout_hours` only on `workflow_dispatch`, which is the path used to **rebuild an existing tag** (retry a failed release, force a rebuild on a different ref). When you go that route, you can stamp a non-default ramp directly:
+
+```bash
+gh workflow run desktop-release.yml \
+  -f tag=v0.1.43 \
+  -f rollout_hours=6
+```
+
+This does **not** apply to fresh releases cut via `npm run release:patch` — that path always tag-pushes and stamps 36. For a fresh release with a custom ramp, cut normally and then dispatch `desktop-rollout.yml` (same pattern as the instant-admit flow above, with your chosen `rollout_hours`).
+
+### Releasing during an active rollout
+
+If you ship N+1 while N is still ramping, N+1 starts a fresh rollout from its own publish timestamp. N's rollout effectively ends — the newer manifest supersedes it.
+
+If N+1 is a hotfix for a bug in N, dispatch `desktop-rollout.yml -f tag=v0.1.<N+1> -f rollout_hours=0` after N+1 publishes so the users who already got N reach the fix fast.
+
+### Limitations
+
+- **No pause / kill switch.** Once a stable user is admitted, they will install the update on next quit (`autoInstallOnAppQuit = true`). To stop new admissions, ship a superseding release. To "recall" already-admitted users, ship a hotfix `+1` patch.
+- **No rollback.** `allowDowngrade = false`. Bad release = ship a hotfix.
+- **Bootstrap caveat.** Clients running a build older than the rollout feature ignore `rolloutHours` and admit immediately. Rollout protection only applies to clients running the rollout-aware version or later.
+- **Up to ~30 min automatic admission latency.** Renderer polls every 30 minutes, so a stable user may take up to that long to be evaluated against the rollout window. Clicking **Check** is manual and bypasses rollout admission.
+
+## Mobile builds (EAS)
+
+iOS and Android store builds are not in `.github/workflows`. They are triggered by the EAS GitHub app the moment the `v*` tag is pushed:
+
+- **Android (Play Store)** — EAS builds with profile `production` and auto-submits to the Play Store via `eas submit` (EAS-managed credentials, no Fastlane).
+- **iOS (TestFlight + App Store)** — EAS builds with profile `production`, uploads to TestFlight, and a Fastlane lane submits the build for App Store review.
+- **Android APK (GitHub Release asset)** — separate, via `.github/workflows/android-apk-release.yml`. This is the only Android-related workflow that lives in this repo.
+
+There is no `release-mobile.yml` in this repo. Earlier versions of these docs referenced one — that workflow was removed and the EAS GitHub app handles tag triggering directly.
+
+### Watching mobile builds from the terminal
+
+Use the EAS CLI from `packages/app/`:
+
+```bash
+cd packages/app
+
+# Recent builds (newest first). Pipe to jq for status only.
+npx eas build:list --limit 8 --non-interactive --json | jq '.[] | {platform, status, appVersion, gitCommitHash}'
+
+# Recent EAS workflow runs. This is the source of truth for submit/review jobs.
+npx eas workflow:runs --json | jq '.[] | {status, workflowName, trigger, gitCommitHash, startedAt, finishedAt}'
+
+# Filter by platform.
+npx eas build:list --platform ios --limit 5 --non-interactive --json
+npx eas build:list --platform android --limit 5 --non-interactive --json
+
+# Inspect a specific build.
+npx eas build:view <build-id>
+
+# Inspect the full release workflow, including submit_ios, submit_android,
+# and submit_ios_for_review.
+npx eas workflow:view <workflow-run-id> --json
+
+# Read failed submit/review job logs.
+npx eas workflow:logs <workflow-job-id> --all-steps --non-interactive
+
+# Stream logs for a build.
+npx eas build:view <build-id> --json | jq '.logFiles[]'
+```
+
+A build's `gitCommitHash` must match the release tag commit. `status` walks through `NEW` → `IN_QUEUE` → `IN_PROGRESS` → `FINISHED` (or `ERRORED`/`CANCELED`). The EAS workflow run's `gitCommitHash` and `trigger` must also match the release tag.
+
+Once a build is `FINISHED`, EAS still has release-critical work to do: Android must submit to the Play Store, and iOS must upload to TestFlight **and** submit the build for App Store review. The release is not done until all platforms are on their way through the stores.
+
+For the `Release Mobile` EAS workflow, these jobs must pass:
+
+- `build_ios` — iOS binary built
+- `submit_ios` — iOS binary uploaded to App Store Connect/TestFlight
+- `submit_ios_for_review` — iOS build submitted for App Store review via Fastlane
+- `build_android` — Android store binary built
+- `submit_android` — Android binary submitted to the Play Store
+
+Do not treat `build_ios: SUCCESS` or `submit_ios: SUCCESS` as a completed iOS release. `submit_ios_for_review: FAILURE` means the iOS release is blocked even if the build is visible in TestFlight.
+
+To confirm the submission landed, inspect the EAS workflow with `npx eas workflow:view <workflow-run-id> --json`. App Store Connect (review state for the matching version/build) and the Play Console track are the final ground truth.
+
+### Babysitting mobile after a release
+
+The user rarely opens the Expo dashboard. A failed EAS build or submit/review job can sit silently until users complain about a stale version. After every stable release, set up a long-delay babysit that re-checks GitHub Actions, EAS builds, and the EAS `Release Mobile` workflow for the release tag. If any build is `ERRORED`/`CANCELED`, any workflow is `FAILURE`, or any required submit/review job fails, surface it immediately. If all builds are `FINISHED` and all required submit/review jobs are `SUCCESS`, confirm and stop.
+
+**Use `create_heartbeat`, never `create_schedule`, for release babysitting.** Babysitting fires back into the current conversation as a wake-up prompt. `create_schedule` starts a fresh agent the user has to find and read; `create_heartbeat` surfaces the build status inline in the conversation that owns the release, where it is impossible to miss. If you find yourself reaching for `create_schedule` for a release babysit, you are about to ship a status report into a void.
+
+Pattern:
+
+```jsonc
+// mcp__paseo__create_heartbeat arguments
+{
+  "name": "vX.Y.Z release babysit heartbeat",
+  "cron": "*/15 * * * *",
+  "maxRuns": 8, // covers ~2h of build + store-submission window
+  "prompt": "Heartbeat: check vX.Y.Z release. Run gh run list, eas build:list, eas workflow:runs, and eas workflow:view for the matching Release Mobile run. Report concisely. The release is not done until desktop/APK workflows are green, EAS builds are FINISHED, Android submit_android is SUCCESS, and iOS submit_ios + submit_ios_for_review are SUCCESS. Flag any ERRORED/FAILED/CANCELED/FAILURE loudly.",
+}
+```
+
+Tight cadence on purpose. The first run fires immediately, giving a near-real-time status check before the conversation closes. Subsequent runs at 15-minute intervals catch transitions quickly: a failed EAS build or failed App Store review submission at +20m should not wait until +50m to surface. Keep the prompt short — the heartbeat is a status probe, not a research task — and have it bail out as soon as every platform is actually on its store path so the remaining runs do not generate noise.
+
+## Release notes on GitHub
+
+The GitHub Release body is populated automatically by the `Release Notes Sync` workflow (`.github/workflows/release-notes-sync.yml`). It triggers on every `v*` tag push and on any push to `main` that touches `CHANGELOG.md`, then runs `scripts/sync-release-notes-from-changelog.mjs` to mirror the matching changelog entry into the release body. You don't need to write release notes on GitHub manually — keep `CHANGELOG.md` correct and the workflow will sync it. To force a re-sync, dispatch the workflow with the tag input.
+
+## Website behavior
+
+- The website download page points to GitHub's latest published **stable** release.
+- Published beta prereleases are public on GitHub Releases, but they do **not** become the website download target.
+- The website only moves when you publish the final stable release tag like `v0.1.41`.
+- The website itself is deployed by `Deploy Website` (Cloudflare Workers), which redeploys on `release: published` for non-prerelease releases and on pushes to `main` that touch `CHANGELOG.md` or `packages/website/**`.
+
+## Fixing a failed release build
+
+**NEVER bump the version to fix a build problem.** New versions are reserved for meaningful product changes (features, fixes, improvements). Build/CI failures are fixed on the current version.
+
+**Do not rely on `workflow_dispatch` for tagged code fixes.** The `workflow_dispatch` trigger runs the workflow file from the default branch but checks out the code at the tag ref (`ref: ${{ inputs.tag }}`). That means fixes committed to `main` won't change the tagged source tree being built. `workflow_dispatch` only helps when the fix lives in the workflow file itself.
+
+To retry a failed workflow, **always push a retry tag** on the commit you want to build. Reusing the same tag name is expected: move it with `git tag -f ...` and push it with `--force` so the workflow rebuilds the commit you actually want.
+
+Prefer a tag push over `workflow_dispatch` whenever you are rebuilding release code or release assets.
+
+The retry tag patterns below still work and remain the supported way to rebuild specific release targets:
+
+```bash
+# Desktop (all platforms)
+git tag -f desktop-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-v0.1.28 --force
+
+# Desktop (single platform)
+git tag -f desktop-macos-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-macos-v0.1.28 --force
+git tag -f desktop-linux-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-linux-v0.1.28 --force
+git tag -f desktop-windows-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin desktop-windows-v0.1.28 --force
+
+# Android APK
+git tag -f android-v0.1.28 HEAD && git push origin android-v0.1.28 --force
+
+# Beta
+git tag -f v0.1.29-beta.2 HEAD && git push origin v0.1.29-beta.2 --force
+```
+
+This ensures the checkout ref matches the actual code on `main` with the fix included.
+
+- `vX.Y.Z` or `vX.Y.Z-beta.N` rebuilds the full tagged release
+- `desktop-vX.Y.Z` rebuilds desktop for all desktop platforms only
+- `desktop-macos-vX.Y.Z`, `desktop-linux-vX.Y.Z`, and `desktop-windows-vX.Y.Z` rebuild only that desktop platform
+- `android-vX.Y.Z` rebuilds the Android APK release only
+
+## Notes
+
+- `version:all:*` bumps root + syncs workspace versions and `@getpaseo/*` dependency versions
+- `release:prepare` refreshes workspace `node_modules` links to prevent stale types
+- `npm run dev:desktop` and `npm run build:desktop` target the Electron desktop package in `packages/desktop`
+- If `release:publish` partially fails, re-run it — npm skips already-published versions
+- If `release:publish:beta` partially fails, re-run it — npm skips already-published versions and keeps prereleases off `latest` because every publish uses `--tag beta`
+- The website uses GitHub's latest published release API for download links, so published beta prereleases do not replace the stable download target.
+
+## Changelog format
+
+Release notes depend on the changelog heading format. The heading **must** be strictly followed:
+
+```
+## X.Y.Z - YYYY-MM-DD
+```
+
+No prefix (`v`), no extra text. The parser matches the first `## X.Y.Z` line to extract the version. A malformed heading will break download links on the homepage.
+
+## Changelog policy
+
+- `CHANGELOG.md` only lists stable releases. Betas are silent.
+- The changelog entry is authored once, at stable promotion time, with the date set to the promotion day.
+- It covers the full diff from the previous stable tag, regardless of how many betas were cut in between.
+
+## Changelog ownership
+
+- **The agent running the stable release writes the changelog entry.** Do not hand the changelog to another model or agent. The release agent has the release context and owns the final wording.
+- Draft the entry from the stable-to-stable diff, review it against the changelog policy below, show it to the user, and wait for approval before committing it.
+
+## Changelog voice
+
+The changelog is shown on the Paseo homepage. Write it for **end users**, not developers.
+
+- **Frame everything from the user's perspective.** Describe what changed in the app, not what changed in the code. Users care that "workspaces load instantly" — not that a component no longer remounts.
+- **Never mention component names, internal modules, or implementation details.** No `WorkingIndicator`, no `accumulatedUsage`, no `reconcileAndEmitWorkspaceUpdates`. Also no "virtualized lists", no "remount", no "memoization", no "debounced", no "fuzzy ranking", no "controlled input", no "uncontrolled input" — these are implementation words masquerading as user-facing copy.
+- **Concrete WRONG → RIGHT examples** (real mistakes from past releases):
+
+  | Wrong (implementation-facing)                                                       | Right (user-facing)                                         |
+  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
+  | Switching layouts no longer remounts the active agent                               | Splitting a pane no longer loses your scroll position       |
+  | Model, mode, and thinking pickers — searchable virtualized lists with fuzzy ranking | Mobile model selector is faster and more straightforward    |
+  | Text inputs in mobile sheets no longer flicker while typing fast                    | Typing in mobile sheets no longer flickers                  |
+  | Compact web sheets no longer crash when swiped to dismiss                           | Sheets on mobile web no longer crash when swiped to dismiss |
+  | Reduced re-renders in the agent list                                                | Agent list scrolls smoothly                                 |
+  | Added debouncing to the search input                                                | Search results no longer lag behind typing                  |
+
+  Test: would a non-developer reader recognise what changed when using the app? If they'd need an engineer to translate ("what's a remount?"), the bullet is still implementation-facing — rewrite it as the symptom the user experiences.
+
+- **Collapse internal iterations.** If a feature was added and then fixed within the same release, just list the feature as working. Users never saw the broken version.
+- **Only list changes relative to the previous stable release.** The diff is `v(previous)..HEAD`. If something was introduced and fixed between those two tags, it never shipped — don't mention the fix.
+  - **Common trap:** when drafting from `git log`, every commit looks like a separate bullet — including the "fix X" commits that landed on top of a brand-new feature in the same release window. Before listing a Fixed entry, check whether the thing being fixed was itself added in this same release. If so, drop the fix and fold it into the feature bullet.
+  - **Example:** if the release adds an in-app browser and also contains a commit "fix: browser pane keyboard handling no longer steals shortcuts", do **not** list the keyboard fix under Fixed. The browser is shipping for the first time, so users will only ever see the working version. The Added entry covers it.
+- **Cut low-signal entries.** "Toolbar buttons have consistent sizing" is too granular. Combine small polish items or drop them.
+
+## Changelog conciseness
+
+Every bullet must be scannable at a glance. The changelog is not release documentation — it's a list.
+
+- **One sentence per bullet, max.** If a bullet contains two sentences, the second one is doing work that belongs in product docs, not the changelog. Cut it.
+- **No trailing periods.** Bullets are list items, not prose. Drop the period at the end of every bullet, including the period inside any bolded lead-in. `**Configurable terminal scrollback**` not `**Configurable terminal scrollback.**`.
+- **One line per bullet.** If a bullet wraps to three lines in a narrow column, it's too long.
+- **Split bullets that pack multiple distinct changes.** If a bullet uses "and", "plus", a comma list, or an em-dash to chain several independent improvements, break them into separate bullets — even when they share a theme or author. One bullet = one user-facing change.
+- **Trim qualifying clauses.** Drop "with a hint shown when…", "matching the CLI's behaviour", "across common install shapes". If the detail doesn't change whether a user cares, cut it.
+- **Lead with what the user can do, not the mechanism.** The reader cares about the capability, not how it works under the hood. Do not explain LAN vs WAN, TLS handshakes, IPC, the daemon-relay topology, or any internal concept the user has not asked about. "Self-hosted relays can use a different TLS setting for the public endpoint" — not "Self-hosted relays support a separate TLS setting for the public endpoint, so the daemon can reach the relay over the LAN while the phone reaches it over the public secure address." If a feature genuinely needs background to be understood, it belongs in product docs, with a one-line teaser in the changelog.
+- **Lead with the outcome.** "Windows: agents launch reliably from npm `.cmd` shims…" is better than "Windows: agents launch reliably across common install shapes. Claude, Codex, and OpenCode now start correctly…".
+- **Attribution follows the split.** When you split a dense bullet, move each PR/author to the bullet it belongs to. Never duplicate the same PR across multiple bullets.
+
+## Changelog attribution
+
+Every changelog bullet must credit contributors and link to the PR(s) that delivered the change. This is not one-PR-per-line — a single bullet describes a user-facing change and may reference multiple PRs.
+
+Format: append `([#123](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/123) by [@user](https://github.com/user))` at the end of each bullet. For changes spanning multiple PRs or contributors:
+
+```markdown
+- Voice mode now works on tablets with proper microphone permissions. ([#210](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/210), [#215](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/215) by [@alice](https://github.com/alice), [@bob](https://github.com/bob))
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- **Always link the PR number** as `[#N](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/N)`.
+- **Always link the contributor's GitHub profile** as `[@user](https://github.com/user)`.
+- **One bullet = one user-facing change**, regardless of how many PRs went into it. Group related PRs on the same bullet.
+- **De-duplicate contributors.** If the same person authored multiple PRs in one bullet, list them once.
+- **Only credit external contributors.** Skip attribution for [@boudra](https://github.com/boudra). The changelog credits community contributions — core team work is the default.
+- **Credit the commit author, not the PR opener.** A maintainer often opens a PR that lands work authored by someone else (cherry-pick, rebase of a contributor's branch, manual extraction from a stacked PR). The squash commit preserves the original commit's author, but `gh pr view N --json author` returns the PR opener — using that field will silently mis-credit the work to the maintainer (and then the "skip @boudra" rule drops the attribution entirely). Always resolve attribution from commit authors.
+
+  Use this command to get the GitHub logins for each PR:
+
+  ```bash
+  gh pr view N --json commits --jq '[.commits[].authors[].login] | unique | .[]'
+  ```
+
+  This returns every distinct GitHub login that authored or co-authored a commit in the PR. Use those logins for attribution. Fall back to `gh pr view N --json author` only if the commits command returns nothing (which should not happen for merged PRs).
+
+  When listing PR numbers, `git log --format='%H %s' v<previous>..HEAD | grep -E '\(#[0-9]+\)$'` pulls the PR number out of squash commit subjects.
+
+## Changelog ordering
+
+Entries within each section (Added, Improved, Fixed) are ordered by user impact:
+
+1. **User-facing features and changes first** — things users will notice, want to try, or that change their workflow.
+2. **Quality-of-life improvements** — polish, performance, smoother interactions.
+3. **Internal/infra changes last** — only include if they have a tangible user benefit (e.g. "faster startup" is user-facing even if the fix was internal).
+
+## Pre-release sanity check
+
+Before cutting a **stable** release, the release agent reviews the diff as a last line of defence against shipping bugs. Skip this for betas — the beta itself is the smoke test, and gating each beta on a code review defeats the point of using betas as fast release candidates.
+
+Review the diff between the latest release tag and `HEAD`. Focus on:
+
+1. **Breaking changes** — especially in the WebSocket protocol, agent lifecycle, and any server↔client contract.
+2. **Backward compatibility** — the important direction is old app clients talking to newly updated daemons. Users update desktop and daemon first, then keep running the old app for a while. Flag anything that breaks old clients against new daemons or requires both sides to update in lockstep.
+3. **Regressions** — anything that looks like it could break existing functionality.
+
+Use `git diff <latest-release-tag>..HEAD` as the review input. This is a deep sanity check, not a full code review. If anything looks risky, investigate before proceeding and surface the finding to the user.
+
+## Changelog scope
+
+The changelog covers **stable-to-stable**. Betas are not represented. When you promote, draft the entry from the diff between the previous stable tag and `HEAD`, ignoring beta tag boundaries — they're just checkpoints along the way.

+# RPC Namespacing
+
+New WebSocket session RPCs use dotted names with the direction as the final segment:
+
+```ts
+checkout.github.set_auto_merge.request;
+checkout.github.set_auto_merge.response;
+```
+
+The namespace reads left to right:
+
+- Domain: `checkout`
+- Provider or subsystem: `github`
+- Operation: `set_auto_merge`; this segment is a verb, not a noun. If you would name an RPC `noun.request`, name it `get_noun.request` instead.
+- Direction: `request` or `response`
+
+Use dots, not slashes. Dots are protocol namespaces; slashes imply paths or transport routing.
+
+## Request/Response Pairs
+
+For ordinary correlated RPCs, a `.request` has a matching `.response` with the same prefix. The daemon client may derive the response type mechanically:
+
+```ts
+checkout.github.set_auto_merge.request;
+// -> checkout.github.set_auto_merge.response
+```
+
+Most new RPCs should follow this shape. If a request does not have a one-to-one response, call that out in the code near the schema.
+
+## Message Shape
+
+Requests keep their parameters at the top level:
+
+```ts
+{
+  type: "checkout.github.set_auto_merge.request",
+  cwd: "/repo",
+  enabled: true,
+  mergeMethod: "squash",
+  requestId: "req_123"
+}
+```
+
+Responses put correlated result data under `payload`:
+
+```ts
+{
+  type: "checkout.github.set_auto_merge.response",
+  payload: {
+    cwd: "/repo",
+    enabled: true,
+    success: true,
+    error: null,
+    requestId: "req_123"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Keep `requestId` in both request and response payloads. It is the correlation key.
+
+## Provider Namespacing
+
+Provider-specific behavior belongs under the provider segment:
+
+- `checkout.github.*` for GitHub-specific checkout operations
+- `checkout.gitlab.*` for future GitLab-specific checkout operations
+
+Do not put GitHub-specific enums or semantics into generic checkout RPC names. A generic RPC should only exist when the behavior is genuinely provider-neutral.
+
+## Compatibility
+
+The existing flat RPC names remain part of the protocol until they are intentionally migrated:
+
+```ts
+checkout_pr_merge_request;
+checkout_pr_merge_response;
+```
+
+Do not add new flat names. When migrating old RPCs, keep protocol compatibility rules in mind:
+
+- Add the new names first.
+- Gate new feature behavior through `server_info.features.*` when an old host cannot support it.
+- Keep old names accepted until the compatibility window expires.
+- Mark shims with `COMPAT(...)` and a removal date.

+# Service Proxy
+
+Paseo proxies HTTP traffic to services running inside your workspaces. Localhost service URLs are always enabled; optional public aliases and a separate service-only listener can be layered on through config.
+
+## How it works
+
+When a `paseo.json` script of `"type": "service"` starts, Paseo assigns it a local port and registers a route in the service proxy. Incoming requests whose `Host` header matches the script's generated hostname are forwarded to that port.
+
+The generated hostname is built from the script name, branch, and project:
+
+```
+<script>--<branch>--<project>.localhost
+```
+
+If the branch is `main` or `master`, the branch segment is omitted:
+
+```
+<script>--<project>.localhost
+```
+
+**Example:** a script named `dev` in the `miniweb` project on branch `feature/auth` would be reachable at:
+
+```
+dev--feature-auth--miniweb.localhost
+```
+
+Local and public routes use one combined leftmost label (`script--branch--project`). This keeps the hostname compatible with normal single-level wildcard DNS and TLS. If the combined label would exceed DNS's 63-character label limit, Paseo truncates it with a deterministic hash suffix to avoid collisions.
+
+## Configuration
+
+Add a `serviceProxy` block under `daemon` in `~/.paseo/config.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "version": 1,
+  "daemon": {
+    "serviceProxy": {
+      "listen": "0.0.0.0:8080",
+      "publicBaseUrl": "https://paseoapps.my.domain.com"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+| Field           | Required | Description                                                                                                                                   |
+| --------------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `listen`        | No       | Starts a separate service-only listener at this address. If omitted, services are still reachable on the daemon listener via localhost hosts. |
+| `publicBaseUrl` | No       | Adds public service host aliases and public service links. If omitted, links use localhost addresses only.                                    |
+
+`enabled` is accepted for old configs but no longer enables a mode. `enabled: false` suppresses optional `listen`/`publicBaseUrl` layers only; localhost service proxying remains always enabled.
+
+## DNS and reverse proxy setup
+
+For generated URLs to be reachable, you need wildcard DNS pointing to the machine running the Paseo daemon.
+
+**Example:** to expose services at `https://dev--miniweb.paseoapps.my.domain.com` where the daemon host is `10.1.1.1`:
+
+1. Configure a wildcard DNS record:
+
+   ```
+   *.paseoapps.my.domain.com  →  10.1.1.1
+   ```
+
+2. Set `publicBaseUrl` to `https://paseoapps.my.domain.com` in your config.
+
+3. If you put a reverse proxy (nginx, Caddy, Traefik, etc.) in front of Paseo, point it at either the daemon listener or the optional service-only listener and ensure it forwards the `Host` header unchanged. The proxy uses the `Host` header to route requests to the correct service — rewriting it will break routing.
+
+Public service URLs expose the workspace service itself. Daemon password authentication protects daemon APIs; it does not protect proxied dev services.
+
+Nginx example:
+
+```nginx
+server {
+    listen 443 ssl;
+    server_name *.paseoapps.my.domain.com;
+
+    location / {
+        proxy_pass http://10.1.1.1:8080;
+        proxy_set_header Host $host;
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Environment variables
+
+The listen address and public base URL can also be set via environment variables, which take precedence over `config.json`:
+
+| Variable                              | Description                                                               |
+| ------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `PASEO_SERVICE_PROXY_ENABLED`         | Compatibility shim; `false` suppresses optional public/listen layers only |
+| `PASEO_SERVICE_PROXY_LISTEN`          | Starts the optional service-only listener, e.g. `0.0.0.0:8080`            |
+| `PASEO_SERVICE_PROXY_PUBLIC_BASE_URL` | Adds public service aliases and links                                     |

+# Testing
+
+## Philosophy
+
+Tests prove behavior, not structure. Every test should answer: "what user-visible or API-visible behavior does this verify?"
+
+## Test-driven development
+
+Work in vertical slices: one test, one implementation, repeat. Each test responds to what you learned from the previous cycle.
+
+```
+RIGHT (vertical):
+  RED→GREEN: test1→impl1
+  RED→GREEN: test2→impl2
+  RED→GREEN: test3→impl3
+
+WRONG (horizontal):
+  RED:   test1, test2, test3, test4, test5
+  GREEN: impl1, impl2, impl3, impl4, impl5
+```
+
+Writing all tests first then all implementation produces bad tests — you end up testing imagined behavior instead of actual behavior.
+
+## Determinism first
+
+Tests must produce the same result every run:
+
+- No conditional assertions or branching paths
+- No reliance on timing, randomness, or network jitter
+- No weak assertions (`toBeTruthy`, `toBeDefined`)
+- Assert the full intended behavior, not fragments
+
+```typescript
+// Bad: conditional and weak
+it("creates a tool call", async () => {
+  const result = await createToolCall(input);
+  if (result.ok) {
+    expect(result.id).toBeDefined();
+  }
+});
+
+// Good: deterministic and explicit
+it("returns timeout error when provider times out", async () => {
+  const result = await createToolCall(input);
+  expect(result).toEqual({
+    ok: false,
+    error: { code: "PROVIDER_TIMEOUT", waitedMs: 30000 },
+  });
+});
+```
+
+## Flaky tests are a bug
+
+Never remove a test because it's flaky. Find the variance source (time, randomness, race condition, shared state, non-deterministic output, environment drift) and fix it.
+
+## Real dependencies over mocks
+
+Mocks are not the default. They require an explicit decision.
+
+- **Database**: real test database, not a mock
+- **APIs**: real APIs with test/sandbox credentials, not request mocks
+- **File system**: temporary directory that gets cleaned up, not fs mocks
+
+Ask: "will this still hold with real dependencies at runtime?" If no, don't mock.
+
+### Use swappable adapters instead
+
+When you need test isolation, design code so dependencies are injectable:
+
+```typescript
+interface EmailSender {
+  send(to: string, body: string): Promise<void>;
+}
+
+// Production
+const realSender: EmailSender = { send: sendgrid.send };
+
+// Test: in-memory adapter
+function createTestEmailSender() {
+  const sent: Array<{ to: string; body: string }> = [];
+  return {
+    send: async (to: string, body: string) => {
+      sent.push({ to, body });
+    },
+    sent,
+  };
+}
+```
+
+## End-to-end means end-to-end
+
+When a test is labeled end-to-end, it calls the real service. No environment variable gates, no conditional skipping, no mocking the external dependency.
+
+## Test organization
+
+- Collocate tests with implementation: `thing.ts` + `thing.test.ts`
+- Extract complex setup into reusable helpers
+- Test bodies should read like plain English
+- Build a vocabulary of test helpers that make complex flows simple
+
+### File naming
+
+Vitest picks up tests by suffix. The suffix tells the runner which category it belongs to.
+
+| Suffix                | What it is                                                                                                    | Where it runs                                                                        |
+| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `*.test.ts(x)`        | Unit test — pure, fast, no daemon                                                                             | `npm run test:unit`                                                                  |
+| `*.posix.test.ts`     | Unit test that needs POSIX-only behavior                                                                      | unit, skipped on Windows                                                             |
+| `*.browser.test.ts`   | App test that needs a real browser (DOM)                                                                      | `npm run test:browser` (Vitest browser mode, Playwright provider, headless Chromium) |
+| `*.e2e.test.ts`       | End-to-end against a real daemon                                                                              | `npm run test:e2e`                                                                   |
+| `*.real.e2e.test.ts`  | E2E that hits a real provider (Claude/Codex/Copilot/OpenCode/Pi) — needs creds in `packages/server/.env.test` | `npm run test:integration:real` / `test:e2e:real`                                    |
+| `*.local.e2e.test.ts` | E2E that needs a local-only resource                                                                          | `npm run test:integration:local` / `test:e2e:local`                                  |
+
+App-level Playwright browser E2E lives in `packages/app/e2e/*.spec.ts` and runs via `npm run test:e2e --workspace=@getpaseo/app` (separate from Vitest E2E). App Playwright specs that hit real providers use `*.real.spec.ts` and run through `npm run test:e2e:real --workspace=@getpaseo/app`; the default app E2E project ignores that suffix so CI does not need provider credentials.
+
+Live provider smoke tests belong in `*.real.e2e.test.ts`, not `*.test.ts`, even when guarded by environment variables. Default unit suites must use deterministic provider adapters/fakes so missing credits, auth outages, and upstream model drift do not block normal CI.
+
+### Test setup
+
+- Server: `packages/server/src/test-utils/vitest-setup.ts` loads `.env.test`, sets `PASEO_SUPERVISED=0`, and disables Git/SSH prompts. Add new global env shims here, not in individual tests.
+- App: `packages/app/vitest.setup.ts` provides `expo`/`__DEV__` shims and stubs a few native-only modules (`react-native-unistyles`, `react-native-svg`, `expo-linking`, `@xterm/addon-ligatures`). Stubbing here is for modules that have no meaningful Node behavior — not a license to mock app code.
+
+## Running tests locally
+
+Test suites in this repo are heavy. Running them in bulk freezes the machine, especially with multiple agents in parallel.
+
+- Run only the file you changed: `npx vitest run <path> --bail=1`
+- Never run `npm run test` for a whole workspace unless asked.
+- For a broad sweep, redirect to a file and read it after: `npx vitest run <path> --bail=1 > /tmp/test-output.txt 2>&1`
+- Never re-run a suite another agent already reported green.
+- For full-suite confidence, push to CI and check GitHub Actions.
+- Never run the full Playwright E2E suite locally — defer whole-suite verification to CI. Targeted Playwright specs are allowed when you changed or need to prove that specific flow.
+
+## Agent authentication in tests
+
+Agent providers handle their own auth. Do not add auth checks, environment variable gates, or conditional skips to tests. If auth fails, report it.
+
+## Debugging with tests
+
+Use the test as your debugging ground:
+
+1. Add temporary logging to the code under test
+2. Run the test, observe actual values
+3. Trace the flow end-to-end through test output
+4. Confirm each assumption with actual output
+5. Remove logging when done
+
+The test output is the source of truth, not your reading of the code.
+
+## Design for testability
+
+If code isn't testable, refactor it. Signs:
+
+- You want to reach for a mock
+- You can't inject a dependency
+- You need to test private internals
+- Setup requires too much global state
+
+Aim for deep modules: small interface, deep implementation. Fewer methods = fewer tests needed, simpler params = simpler setup.
+
+## Two test categories, no others
+
+Every test in this repo lives in exactly one of these shapes:
+
+1. **Unit tests with ports and adapters** — production code receives its real-world dependencies (DB, HTTP, CLI process, clock, randomness, filesystem, other modules) through an injected interface. Tests wire a typed in-memory fake colocated with the production module. **No `vi.mock`, `vi.hoisted`, `vi.spyOn` of own exports, JSDOM, `@testing-library` component mounting, RN test renderer, monkey-patched globals, or fake-server fixtures.** If a test needs any of those, the production module is missing a port — fix the seam, then write the test against a fake adapter.
+2. **Real end-to-end tests** — real daemon, real network, real browser (Playwright for app code) or a real isolated server instance (for daemon code). No JSDOM, no mocked transport.
+
+Anything in between — component tests in JSDOM, vitest tests that mock the module under test, tests that assert on private state — is slop on its way out.

+# Timeline sync
+
+Agent chat delivery has two paths:
+
+1. **Live stream** — `agent_stream` WebSocket messages for immediacy. These may be delta-shaped lifecycle updates.
+2. **Authoritative history** — `fetch_agent_timeline_request` for correctness. This always returns full projected timeline items, never lifecycle deltas.
+
+The invariant is:
+
+> If the daemon has committed timeline rows for an agent, any connected client that opens or resumes that agent eventually displays every row through the daemon's current tail.
+
+## Presence is not delivery
+
+Client heartbeat reports presence:
+
+- device type
+- app visibility
+- focused agent
+- last activity time
+
+Heartbeat is used for notification routing. It must not be used as a correctness gate for `agent_stream` delivery. A stale mobile focus heartbeat may affect whether the user gets notified; it must not make timeline rows disappear from the live stream.
+
+## Catch-up is paged but complete
+
+Large unbounded timeline responses can exceed relay frame limits, so catch-up uses bounded pages. Bounded does not mean partial.
+
+Page limits are projected-item targets. A tool call lifecycle is one projected item even if it spans many source sequence numbers, and assistant/reasoning chunks are merged before counting. The response carries `seqStart`, `seqEnd`, `sourceSeqRanges`, and `collapsed` so clients can advance sequence cursors without rendering delta rows.
+
+When the app fetches `direction: "after"` and the daemon responds with `hasNewer: true`, the app must immediately fetch the next page from `endCursor`. The catch-up is complete only when `hasNewer: false`.
+
+The first load of an agent without a local cursor is different: it fetches a bounded latest tail page. Older history remains user-driven by scrolling upward.
+
+## Resume behavior
+
+When a client resumes with a known cursor, it catches up after that cursor to completion. It does not replace the view with a latest tail page, because tail pagination can skip the middle of a long background run.
+
+When a client resumes without a cursor, it fetches the latest tail page.

+This app uses [`react-native-unistyles` v3](https://www.unistyl.es/) for theme-aware styles. Unistyles is fast because most style updates do not go through React renders: the [Babel plugin](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/other/babel-plugin) rewrites React Native component imports, attaches style metadata, and lets the native ShadowRegistry update tracked views when theme or runtime dependencies change.
+
+That model is powerful, but it has sharp edges. Use this note when adding theme-dependent styles.
+
+## STOP — `useUnistyles()` Is Banned
+
+**Do not call `useUnistyles()`. Anywhere. New code MUST NOT add a call; existing call sites are tolerated only because nobody has rewritten them yet and will be converted as they are touched.** The library authors themselves [strongly advise against it](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/use-unistyles):
+
+> We strongly recommend **not using** this hook, as it will re-render your component on every change. This hook was created to simplify the migration process and should only be used when other methods fail.
+
+We have hit this gotcha repeatedly in Paseo. The hook subscribes the component to **every** Unistyles runtime change (theme, breakpoint, insets, color scheme, scale) and returns a fresh object reference each call. That means a periodic lockstep re-render of warm subtrees (agent streams, panels, sidebars) even when nothing the user can see has changed — confirmed in profiling, with `theme` as the only changed input every cycle. It also breaks every downstream `useMemo`/`memo` boundary that includes a derived theme value.
+
+Reviewers MUST reject PRs that introduce a new `useUnistyles()` call. There is no last-resort carveout. If you cannot solve a case with the alternatives below, file an issue and stop — do not paper over it with the hook.
+
+Use these alternatives in order:
+
+### 1. `StyleSheet.create((theme) => ...)` — default
+
+Most theme-aware styling needs nothing else. The Babel plugin tracks theme dependencies inside the factory and updates the native ShadowTree without any React re-render.
+
+```tsx
+const styles = StyleSheet.create((theme) => ({
+  container: {
+    backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface0,
+    padding: theme.spacing[4],
+  },
+}));
+
+<View style={styles.container} />;
+```
+
+If you are reading a theme value just to feed it back into a `style` prop, you almost certainly want this and not the hook.
+
+### 2. Hard-coded constants for genuinely static values
+
+If you only need a number that happens to live on the theme (e.g. a fixed spacing value used to compute a gap or animation distance), use a literal constant or import a static module. Static reads do not need a subscription. See the "Static Theme Imports" section below — importing `baseColors`, theme-name constants, or `type Theme` is fine when the value is intentionally static.
+
+### 3. `withUnistyles(Component)` for third-party props
+
+When a third-party component takes a non-`style` prop that must be theme-reactive (e.g. `BlurView.tint`, `Image.tintColor`, navigator option props, bottom-sheet `backgroundStyle`), wrap that single component with `withUnistyles`. Only the wrapper re-renders, not the surrounding tree.
+
+```tsx
+const ThemedBlur = withUnistyles(BlurView);
+<ThemedBlur tint={theme.colors.surface0} />;
+```
+
+(Mind the `> *` child-selector leak documented further down.)
+
+### 4. There is no "last resort"
+
+There is no escape hatch. If none of (1)–(3) fit, the problem is upstream — fix it there or file an issue. The hook is not on the table.
+
+## How Updates Propagate
+
+For standard React Native components, the [Unistyles Babel plugin](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/other/babel-plugin) rewrites imports such as `View`, `Text`, `Pressable`, and `ScrollView` to Unistyles-aware component factories. On native, those factories borrow the component ref and register the `style` prop with the ShadowRegistry. The upstream ["Why my view doesn't update?"](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/guides/why-my-view-doesnt-update) guide describes this as the ShadowTree update path that avoids unnecessary React re-renders.
+
+The important detail: the automatic native path tracks `props.style`. It does not generally track every prop that happens to carry style-like values.
+
+[`useUnistyles()`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/use-unistyles) is different. It gives React access to the current theme/runtime and can make a component re-render when those values change. Use it for values that must be rendered through React props, such as icon colors or small escape hatches. Do not expect direct reads from `UnistylesRuntime` to re-render a component; [issue #817](https://github.com/jpudysz/react-native-unistyles/issues/817) is a useful reminder of that invariant.
+
+## Dynamic Pixel Styles On Web
+
+Avoid feeding changing pixel values such as `{ top, left }`, `{ maxHeight }`, or `{ minWidth }` into the `style` prop of Unistyles-managed React Native components on web. The web runtime hashes each distinct style object by value and appends a CSS rule to `#unistyles-web`; those rules are not reclaimed during the page lifetime, so pointer-driven positioning can turn into steady stylesheet growth.
+
+Use the inline style escape hatch below for high-churn values. Do not split a component into plain/web/native variants just to keep one measured value out of the CSS registry. Raw DOM wrappers are reserved for real DOM infrastructure, such as terminal hosts, virtualized web rows, or third-party drag wrappers.
+
+## Inline Style Escape Hatch
+
+When a style value is high-churn and must bypass Unistyles' CSS registry, keep the component on the normal Unistyles path and mark only that style object with `inlineUnistylesStyle`.
+
+```tsx
+import { inlineUnistylesStyle } from "@/styles/unistyles-inline-style";
+
+const styles = StyleSheet.create({
+  thumb: {
+    position: "absolute",
+  },
+});
+
+<View style={[styles.thumb, inlineUnistylesStyle({ height, transform: [{ translateY }] })]} />;
+```
+
+This uses Unistyles' own animated-style lane: ordinary styles still become Unistyles classes, while the marked style object stays in React Native's inline style array. Use it for measured geometry, scroll or drag transforms, and pressed/hovered/open state where generating CSS classes is the wrong ownership boundary.
+
+Do not split a component into plain and Unistyles variants just to handle one high-churn value. The component remains a normal Unistyles component; only the specific style object escapes.
+
+When a reusable component has a prop whose whole job is dynamic geometry, make that prop the seam. For example, `FloatingSurface.frameStyle` and `FloatingScrollView.style` own their own escape hatch so menu, tooltip, hover-card, and combobox callers can stay declarative instead of knowing about Unistyles internals.
+
+Do not flatten a caller-provided style array and pass the flattened object back to a React Native component. Unistyles style entries carry `unistyles_*` metadata; flattening two entries produces one object with multiple metadata keys and triggers the runtime warning: "use array syntax instead of object syntax." Preserve caller styles as arrays, and only flatten the dynamic geometry value you explicitly own. If that owned value was flattened from a mixed style prop, strip `unistyles_*` metadata before sending it through `inlineUnistylesStyle`.
+
+## Main Gotcha: `contentContainerStyle`
+
+`ScrollView.contentContainerStyle` is the canonical trap. It looks like a style prop, but it is not the same prop that Unistyles' remapped native component registers by default. The upstream tutorial calls this out directly in its [ScrollView Background Issue](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/tutorial/settings-screen#scrollview-background-issue) section.
+
+Avoid this pattern when the style depends on the theme:
+
+```tsx
+<ScrollView contentContainerStyle={styles.container} />;
+
+const styles = StyleSheet.create((theme) => ({
+  container: {
+    flexGrow: 1,
+    backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface0,
+  },
+}));
+```
+
+On first mount this can paint with the current adaptive or initial theme. If app settings later load a persisted theme and call [`UnistylesRuntime.setTheme`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/guides/theming#change-theme), the JS-side style proxy may report the new theme while the native content container keeps the old background. That is how the welcome screen ended up with a light background and dark foreground/buttons.
+
+This applies broadly to non-`style` props that carry theme-dependent values, such as component props named `color`, `trackColor`, `tintColor`, `backgroundStyle`, `handleIndicatorStyle`, and other library-specific style props. The [3rd-party view decision algorithm](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/3rd-party-views) recommends explicit handling for these cases, and [issue #1030](https://github.com/jpudysz/react-native-unistyles/issues/1030) shows a related native-prop update edge case around `Image.tintColor`. Treat these values as React props unless wrapped with `withUnistyles`.
+
+## Fix Patterns
+
+Preferred pattern: put themed backgrounds on a normal wrapper view, and keep `contentContainerStyle` theme-free.
+
+```tsx
+<View style={styles.container}>
+  <ScrollView contentContainerStyle={styles.contentContainer}>{children}</ScrollView>
+</View>;
+
+const styles = StyleSheet.create((theme) => ({
+  container: {
+    flex: 1,
+    backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface0,
+  },
+  contentContainer: {
+    flexGrow: 1,
+    padding: theme.spacing[4],
+  },
+}));
+```
+
+This is the pattern used by the settings screen: the screen background lives on a normal `View style={styles.container}`, while the scroll content container only carries layout.
+
+In practice the wrapper-`View` pattern is the one we use. Across the app, `withUnistyles` is now reserved for wrapping leaf components — mostly lucide icons (`ThemedActivityIndicator`, `ThemedChevronDown`, …) and small third-party components like `MarkdownWithStableRenderer` — so they pick up theme-reactive `color`/`tintColor` props without re-rendering their parent.
+
+In principle, [`withUnistyles`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/with-unistyles) can also wrap a `ScrollView` to make `contentContainerStyle` theme-reactive via its [auto-mapping behavior for `style` and `contentContainerStyle`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/with-unistyles#auto-mapping-for-style-and-contentcontainerstyle-props). We previously did this on the welcome screen and hit the `> *` child-selector leak documented below; we have since moved the welcome screen to the wrapper-`View` pattern. If you find yourself reaching for `withUnistyles(ScrollView)`, treat it as a smell and check whether a wrapper view works first.
+
+The smallest escape hatch is to use `useUnistyles()` and pass an inline value through React:
+
+```tsx
+const { theme } = useUnistyles();
+
+<ScrollView
+  contentContainerStyle={[styles.contentContainer, { backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface0 }]}
+/>;
+```
+
+Use this sparingly. It works because React re-renders the prop, but it gives up the main Unistyles native-update path for that value.
+
+## `withUnistyles` And The `> *` Child-Selector Leak
+
+`withUnistyles` on a component with a theme-dependent `style` prop works by wrapping the component in a `<div style={{display: 'contents'}} className={hash}>` and emitting the style under a `.hash > *` child selector so the styles cascade onto the wrapped component. This is how auto-mapping for `style` and `contentContainerStyle` works on web.
+
+The sharp edge: Unistyles hashes styles by value. If `withUnistyles` receives a style whose value is **identical** to a style used elsewhere in the app on a plain `View`, both usages get the same hash — and both CSS rules (the element rule and the `> *` child rule) are emitted under the same class name. The `> *` rule then leaks onto the direct children of every `View` that shares the hash.
+
+Concrete regression we hit: `welcome-screen.tsx` had `const ThemedScrollView = withUnistyles(ScrollView)` with `style={{ flex: 1, backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface0 }}`. `panels/agent-panel.tsx` had `root` and `container` styles with the exact same value. All three collided on class `unistyles_j2k2iilhfz`, so the browser stylesheet contained:
+
+```css
+.unistyles_j2k2iilhfz {
+  flex: 1 1 0%;
+  background-color: var(--colors-surface0);
+}
+.unistyles_j2k2iilhfz > * {
+  flex: 1 1 0%;
+  background-color: var(--colors-surface0);
+}
+```
+
+The child-selector rule forced `flex:1` and `background-color: surface0` onto the Composer's outer `Animated.View` (a direct child of `container`), stretching it to fill remaining space and leaving a large empty gap between the composer UI and the bottom of the screen. It also painted a `surface0` band behind the scroll-to-bottom button. The bug only appeared in the browser — Electron skips `WelcomeScreen` after pairing, so the `> *` rule was never injected there.
+
+Symptoms to watch for:
+
+- A sibling of a themed panel-background `View` stretches unexpectedly on web only.
+- Random direct children of a `{ flex: 1, backgroundColor: surface0 }` `View` pick up an unexpected background.
+- DevTools shows a `.unistyles_xxx > *` rule you did not write.
+
+Quick confirmation in DevTools console:
+
+```js
+[...document.styleSheets]
+  .flatMap((s) => [...(s.cssRules || [])])
+  .map((r) => r.cssText)
+  .filter((t) => t.includes("unistyles") && t.includes("> *"));
+```
+
+Any match beyond benign `r-pointerEvents-* > *` rules from react-native-web is a leak.
+
+Avoid the bug by preferring the wrapper-`View` pattern from the previous section whenever possible: put `{ flex: 1, backgroundColor: surface0 }` on a plain `View` and give the `ScrollView` a theme-free `style`/`contentContainerStyle`. That keeps `withUnistyles` off the hot path and avoids the hash collision. Only reach for `withUnistyles(ScrollView)` when a wrapper view is genuinely awkward, and when you do, give the wrapped style a distinctive shape (extra key, different layout) so it does not hash-collide with a common panel background used elsewhere.
+
+## Hidden Sheet Content
+
+`@gorhom/bottom-sheet` can keep `BottomSheetModal` content mounted while the sheet is hidden. That matters during Paseo's startup theme transition: a header node can be created under the initial adaptive theme, stay hidden, then appear later with stale native style values even though surrounding content has re-rendered correctly.
+
+We saw this in `AdaptiveModalSheet`: the body text and buttons were dark-theme-correct, but the shared sheet title opened with the initial light-theme text color on a dark sheet background. For tiny values in a reusable sheet header, prefer the inline escape hatch:
+
+```tsx
+const { theme } = useUnistyles();
+
+<Text style={[styles.title, { color: theme.colors.foreground }]}>{title}</Text>;
+```
+
+Keep layout and typography in `StyleSheet.create`; move only the stale theme-dependent value through React. If a larger subtree shows the same behavior, consider remounting the sheet on theme changes or moving the themed paint onto a wrapper that is mounted with the visible content.
+
+The same rule applies to bottom-sheet component props such as `backgroundStyle` and `handleIndicatorStyle`: they are library props, not the direct React Native `style` prop Unistyles registers. Prefer a custom `backgroundComponent` that calls `useUnistyles()`, or pass a small inline object from the hook theme.
+
+## Memoized Style Objects
+
+When a third-party library receives a plain style object, it is outside Unistyles' native tracking path. Make sure any memo that builds that style object depends on the actual theme values it reads.
+
+Avoid indirect keys like this:
+
+```tsx
+const { theme, rt } = useUnistyles();
+const markdownStyles = useMemo(() => createMarkdownStyles(theme), [rt.themeName]);
+```
+
+On adaptive system-theme changes, the hook can provide a light/dark theme update while an indirect runtime key is not the value that invalidates the memo. That leaves the library rendering stale colors. Assistant markdown hit this exact failure: the workspace shell switched to light, but assistant text and code spans kept the old dark-theme markdown style object.
+
+Prefer the hook theme itself, or explicit theme tokens, as the dependency:
+
+```tsx
+const { theme } = useUnistyles();
+const markdownStyles = useMemo(() => createMarkdownStyles(theme), [theme]);
+```
+
+If a style factory is cheap, skipping `useMemo` entirely is also fine.
+
+## Static Theme Imports
+
+Do not import `theme` from `@/styles/theme` for live UI colors. That export is a dark-theme compatibility default, so using it in render code leaves icons, placeholders, or third-party props pinned to dark colors in light mode.
+
+Wrap the icon (or other leaf component) with `withUnistyles` instead, so only that node re-renders when the theme changes:
+
+```tsx
+import { ChevronDown } from "lucide-react-native";
+import { StyleSheet, withUnistyles } from "react-native-unistyles";
+
+const ThemedChevronDown = withUnistyles(ChevronDown);
+
+const styles = StyleSheet.create((theme) => ({
+  icon: { color: theme.colors.foregroundMuted },
+}));
+
+<ThemedChevronDown size={theme.iconSize.md} style={styles.icon} />;
+```
+
+This is the dominant pattern in the app today (see `sidebar-workspace-list.tsx`, `message.tsx`, the workspace screens). Reserve `useUnistyles()` for the last-resort cases described at the top of this file. Importing `baseColors`, theme-name constants, or `type Theme` is fine when the value is intentionally static or type-only.
+
+## Reanimated `Animated.View` + Dynamic Styles Crashes
+
+Do not apply `StyleSheet.create((theme) => ...)` styles to a Reanimated `Animated.View`. Unistyles wraps styled components in a `<UnistylesComponent>` and patches native view props from C++ via the ShadowRegistry. Reanimated also reaches into the same native node from its worklet runtime. When a theme change fires, both systems try to mutate the same node and the app crashes with `Unable to find node on an unmounted component.` This was a real iOS sidebar crash on theme toggle (commit `4896cfe9`).
+
+Fix: keep static positioning on the `Animated.View` in plain React Native `StyleSheet`, and pass theme-dependent values (e.g. `backgroundColor`) as inline style from `useUnistyles()` — the inline path is acceptable here because no other escape works:
+
+```tsx
+import { StyleSheet as RNStyleSheet } from "react-native";
+import Animated from "react-native-reanimated";
+import { useUnistyles } from "react-native-unistyles";
+
+const positionStyles = RNStyleSheet.create({
+  sidebar: { position: "absolute", inset: 0, width: 280 },
+});
+
+function Sidebar() {
+  const { theme } = useUnistyles();
+  return (
+    <Animated.View
+      style={[positionStyles.sidebar, animatedStyle, { backgroundColor: theme.colors.surface1 }]}
+    />
+  );
+}
+```
+
+This is one of the rare places `useUnistyles()` is the right tool: there is no `withUnistyles(Animated.View)` equivalent, the affected component is small, and the alternative is a crash.
+
+## Adaptive Themes And Persisted Settings
+
+Unistyles [`initialTheme`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/guides/theming#select-theme) and [`adaptiveThemes`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/guides/theming#adaptive-themes) are mutually exclusive. `initialTheme` can be a string or a synchronous function, but it cannot wait on async storage.
+
+Paseo currently stores app settings in AsyncStorage and loads them through react-query. That means the app can mount under adaptive/system theme first, then switch after settings load:
+
+1. Unistyles config starts with `adaptiveThemes: true`.
+2. The device may report system light.
+3. Settings load a persisted non-auto preference, such as dark.
+4. The app calls `setAdaptiveThemes(false)` and `setTheme("dark")`.
+
+That brief transition is expected with the current storage model. It makes tracking-compatible styles important: anything mounted during the initial adaptive theme must update correctly after the persisted preference applies. [Issue #550](https://github.com/jpudysz/react-native-unistyles/issues/550) was a separate ScrollView sticky-header bug, but it is still useful context for why ScrollView theme updates deserve extra suspicion.
+
+If we ever need to avoid the transition entirely, store at least the theme preference in synchronous storage and configure Unistyles with `initialTheme`.
+
+## Runtime Theme Patching For User Preferences
+
+Appearance settings (UI/mono font family, font sizes, syntax-highlight theme) are applied by patching every registered theme at runtime with `UnistylesRuntime.updateTheme(name, updater)` — not by threading preference reads through components. `applyAppearance` in `packages/app/src/screens/settings/appearance/apply-appearance.ts` runs from a `ProvidersWrapper` effect on settings load/change and loops all six theme keys, returning `{ ...theme, fontFamily, fontSize, lineHeight, colors.syntax }`.
+
+This works without `useUnistyles()` because every consumer already reads these tokens through `StyleSheet.create((theme) => …)` (or the `withUnistyles`/`uniProps` path for the markdown renderer), so patching the theme repaints tracked views through the native ShadowRegistry with no React re-render.
+
+Gotchas:
+
+- **Patch all themes, not just the active one.** The active theme can change and adaptive mode can flip light/dark; patching every key keeps the active key current and makes ordering vs `setTheme`/`setAdaptiveThemes` irrelevant. The effect depends on the settings values (not on `theme`), so it cannot loop.
+- **Narrow the discriminated union before spreading.** `updateTheme`'s updater returns the theme union; spreading the union widens `colorScheme` to `"light" | "dark"`, which is assignable to neither concrete member. Branch on `t.colorScheme` so each branch spreads a single narrowed theme type (no `as`).
+- **`lineHeight.diff` is the code/diff line-height axis** — it is coupled to the code-font-size control (≈ `codeFontSize * 1.5`). Do NOT use it for prose. Markdown body line-height scales with the UI ramp (`Math.round(theme.fontSize.base * 1.4)`); routing prose through `lineHeight.diff` clips text at small code sizes.
+- **High-churn draft values** (live-while-typing in the appearance preview) bypass the theme: apply them as inline styles marked with `inlineUnistylesStyle` so per-keystroke values don't grow the `#unistyles-web` CSS registry.
+- **Mounted parsed content uses `AppearanceStyleBoundary`.** Markdown, syntax-highlighted code, and tool-call detail bodies can contain memoized/custom renderer trees that do not naturally re-run when runtime-patched appearance tokens change. Wrap the parsed surface once with `packages/app/src/components/appearance-style-boundary.tsx`; do not add local "appearance key" props at each callsite.
+- **Dynamic font tokens stay widened.** `fontFamily`, `fontSize`, and `lineHeight` on `commonTheme` are annotated `string`/`number` (not narrowed by `as const`) so the updater's return assigns; the platform default stacks live in `DEFAULT_UI_FONT_STACK` / `DEFAULT_MONO_FONT_STACK`.
+
+## Debugging
+
+To inspect what the Babel plugin sees, temporarily enable [`debug: true`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/other/babel-plugin#debug) in `packages/app/babel.config.js`:
+
+```js
+[
+  "react-native-unistyles/plugin",
+  {
+    root: "src",
+    debug: true,
+  },
+],
+```
+
+Then rebuild the bundle and look for lines such as:
+
+```text
+src/components/welcome-screen.tsx: styles.container: [Theme]
+```
+
+This only confirms that the stylesheet dependency was detected. The upstream debugging guide makes the same distinction: dependency detection is only one failure mode. It does not prove the style prop is registered on the native view you care about.
+
+For paint-layer bugs, use high-contrast probes:
+
+1. Paint each candidate layer a distinct color, such as root wrapper cyan, `ScrollView.style` yellow, and `contentContainerStyle` magenta.
+2. Cold-restart the app, not just Fast Refresh.
+3. Screenshot the simulator and sample pixels to see which color fills the area.
+4. Remove the probes before committing.
+
+The welcome-screen investigation used this approach to prove the white layer was the `ScrollView` content container.
