 Controls come in two sizes, defined once in `control-geometry.ts`. The default is the right size almost everywhere — pages, dialogs, forms, settings rows, the setup flow — so don't pass a size. It is 32px tall where a pointer drives it and 44px where controls are touch-sized, so every touch control meets the iOS HIG's 44pt hit region. `sm` is 28px pointer and 32px touch, with `fontSize.sm` labels, and is for tight chrome only: toolbars, nested settings rows, dense inline row actions. A `size="sm"` on an ordinary page or dialog is wrong, and so is choosing a size from `useIsCompactFormFactor()`.
 
+Dense toolbar rows, such as the composer's, are the exception to the 44pt control. Touch-sized the row is 44pt tall and each control is a 36pt circle (`TOOLBAR_DISC_SIZE`): send and stop fill it, and every other control's pressed highlight fills it, so every highlight is the same fully rounded shape. Labelled pickers are 36pt pills. A control lays out at the width of what it paints (`toolbarSlot`, `toolbarContentSlot`) and its circle reaches into the gaps, so `TOOLBAR_CONTROL_GAP`, 20pt, is the visible space between glyphs. Toolbar glyphs match the header icons: 20pt, the app's 1.5px stroke, resting at `foreground` (`toolbarGlyphsFor`). The context ring is 18pt with a 2px stroke (`TOOLBAR_RINGS`): a circle fills its box where an outline glyph does not, and a thin circle reads lighter than a glyph at the same stroke. A disc's solid glyph, such as the stop square, stays at the `md` size (`TOOLBAR_DISC_GLYPH_SIZES`). Pointer-sized toolbars keep 28px controls, a 4px gap, and a 16pt muted glyph that brightens on hover.
+
+In the composer, the first glyph's ink starts on the text column's edge, and the trailing control is always a disc, so the row does not shift as it changes between voice mode, send and stop. The disc nests into the corner, as far from the right edge as from the bottom, and touch-sized the composer's corner radius is concentric with it (`packages/app/src/composer/input/toolbar-rails.ts`).
+
 One gate, `resolveControlSizing`, picks touch or pointer sizing: touch when the layout is compact or the device has a touch screen. An iPad with the sidebar docked is wide and touch-sized; a desktop is pointer-sized; a phone is both compact and touch. The touch-screen fact is read once at startup (`hasTouchScreen` in `hooks/use-fine-pointer.ts`), so attaching a mouse or keyboard to a tablet never shrinks its controls. Stylesheets take sizes from `bySizing({ touch, pointer })`, which resolves to a breakpoint value, so a caller never sees which sizing it got. Rows, icon buttons and icon slots take theirs from `styles/density.ts`, which uses the same gate. An `{ xs, md }` literal for a hit target or glyph is wrong: on an iPad it yields the pointer size.
 
 Buttons are pills (`borderRadius.full`) with medium-weight labels; an icon-only button is a circle. `<Switch>` follows the same two sizes: a 34×20 track by default and in `sm`, 44×26 where controls are touch-sized, and it reserves its size's control height so a row holding one lines up with a row holding a button. Buttons, text fields, dropdown triggers, and `<SegmentedControl>` (`packages/app/src/components/ui/segmented-control.tsx`) share the size contract — the same size name means the same height and label size on every control kind, so controls in one row line up. Segments run tighter than a button, because the gap between segments already reads as padding. The selected segment is a `surface3` fill with `foreground` text, not an inverted one — inverting it inside thin chrome puts a white slab in the toolbar. A settings row sizes the controls in its trailing slot itself, default in a card and `sm` when nested (`packages/app/src/components/ui/control-size.tsx`), so don't pass a size to a button, dropdown or field placed in a row. Code that computes with a control's height outside a stylesheet uses `controlHeightForLayout`. Never shrink a control's font or padding locally to fit a context — if the context needs a smaller control, the size tier is missing or the wrong one is in use.

 Pick the rails from the content, then hold them.

+The pressable is bigger than the glyph, and that is fine. Hit areas grow outward from the aligned content — they never move it. A button that looks two pixels off because its padding is asymmetric is misaligned even though its box is correct. The composer toolbar is the worked example: its outermost ink, the attach `+` on the left and the trailing glyph or send/stop disc on the right, sits on the text column's edges, and the 44pt touch slots overhang into the composer padding by each end control's ink inset (`composerToolbarOverhang`).
 
 Optical alignment beats arithmetic when a glyph disagrees with its bounding box. Icons with visual weight on one side, chevrons, and single-character labels usually need a small nudge to look centered. Trust the eye, then leave a comment saying the offset is optical.

+The worker writes `$PASEO_HOME/terminal-worker/<pid>.json` (owner-only) with its pid, protocol version, socket path, random secret, runtime copy and terminal programs. One daemon holds the home's pid lock. Its records and sockets belong to that home.
 
-- The first frame on the socket must be `hello` with the secret; anything else closes the connection. Anyone who connects can type into every shell, so the record is `0600`, the unix socket `0600` in a `0700` directory.
-- Unix socket paths have a byte budget (103 on macOS, 107 on Linux). Dev homes under worktrees blow it, so `terminal-worker-socket-path.ts` tries `$PASEO_HOME/terminal-worker/sock/`, then `$TMPDIR/paseo-<uid>/`, then `/tmp/paseo-<uid>/`, and accepts an existing directory only if it is a real `0700` directory owned by you. It never chmods a shared root.
-- Cleanup signals a process only when its birth time matches the record. Birth times come from `ps -o lstart` with `LC_ALL=C` (it follows `LC_TIME` otherwise) and from `Win32_Process.CreationDate`. A missing birth time is "unknown", never matched by command text: a shell that ran `exec` keeps its pid and birth time but not its argv.
+- The first frame must be `hello` with the secret; anything else closes the connection. Anyone authenticated can type into every shell, so the record and Unix socket are `0600` inside a `0700` directory.
+- New socket names include the record id. A stale record whose pid belongs to a newer worker cannot reach that newer worker. Existing records keep their recorded paths. Legacy paths use only the home and pid, so force-killing through one also requires successful authentication. A legacy socket that cannot authenticate stays unconfirmed.
+- A missing pid or refused socket retires the record without signaling the worker. An accepting socket identifies the live worker. Cleanup asks it to shut down, then probes again before force-killing it after the grace period (`taskkill /T` on Windows). An inconclusive probe counts toward the worker limit and is retried on the next start or stop without signaling it.
+- Workers never query their own birth time or command line. Readers accept legacy identity fields but ignore them. Daemons through 0.15.1 report new records unreadable and cannot adopt them.
+- Windows terminal programs have no recorded birth time and terminal lifecycle operations never launch PowerShell. Linux and macOS retain program birth-time checks through `ps` with `LC_ALL=C`; Linux also walks sessions to find surviving jobs.
+- Unix socket paths have a byte budget (103 on macOS, 107 on Linux). Long dev homes use an owner-only fallback under `$TMPDIR/paseo-<uid>/` or `/tmp/paseo-<uid>/`. An existing directory must be a real `0700` directory owned by you; a shared root is never chmodded.
 - A kill cleanup that cannot confirm every process gone writes `closing-<recordId>.json` beside the worker record. The worker rewrites its own record whenever a terminal starts or exits, so the kill intent has to live in a file it never writes. A closing record is never adopted; the next stop or start retries it.
 - An unreadable record of either kind makes `daemon status` and a kill restart fail with its path: a kill cleanup that met it could not check what it names, and leaves nothing else behind. A read that fails with `EPERM`, `EBUSY` or `EACCES` is retried for 250ms first: on Windows, opening a record while the worker renames its new copy over it fails that way for a moment.
