refactor(app): extract composer-actions module with pure tests

Move composer cancel/queue/attachment/dispatch orchestration out of
composer.tsx into a React-free actions module. The module takes its
dependencies (send client, queue writer, stream writer, attachment
persister, image picker) as injected ports, so the new
composer-actions.test.ts can drive every action with inline fakes —
zero vi.mock of internal modules, zero JSDOM, zero React.

The old composer.test.tsx (heavy mocked component test) is removed
and replaced with composer-actions.test.ts (31 unit tests).

Also extract isWorkspaceAttachment / userAttachmentsOnly /
workspaceAttachmentToSubmitAttachment from composer-workspace-attachments.tsx
into a sibling .ts so the actions module (and composer-attachments.ts)
can use them without dragging React/RN/lucide into a pure test graph.

-This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
-
-## Project Overview
-
-Paseo is a mobile app for monitoring and controlling your local AI coding agents from anywhere. Your dev environment, in your pocket.
-
-**Key features:**
-- Real-time streaming of agent output
-- Voice commands for hands-free interaction
-- Push notifications when tasks complete
-- Multi-agent orchestration across projects
-
-**Not a cloud sandbox** - Paseo connects directly to your actual development environment. Your code stays on your machine.
+Paseo is a mobile app for monitoring and controlling your local AI coding agents from anywhere. Your dev environment, in your pocket. Connects directly to your actual development environment — your code stays on your machine.
 
 **Supported agents:** Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode.
 
-## Monorepo Structure
+## Repository map
 
 This is an npm workspace monorepo:
 
-- **packages/server**: The Paseo daemon that runs on your machine. Manages agent processes, provides WebSocket API for real-time streaming, and exposes an MCP server for agent control.
-- **packages/app**: Cross-platform client (Expo). Connects to one or more servers, displays agent output, handles voice input, and sends push notifications.
-- **packages/cli**: The `paseo` CLI that is used to manage the deamon, and acts as a client to it with  Docker-style commands like `paseo run/ls/logs/wait`
-- **packages/website**: Marketing site at paseo.sh (TanStack Router + Cloudflare Workers).
+- `packages/server` — Daemon: agent lifecycle, WebSocket API, MCP server
+- `packages/app` — Mobile + web client (Expo)
+- `packages/cli` — Docker-style CLI (`paseo run/ls/logs/wait`)
+- `packages/relay` — E2E encrypted relay for remote access
+- `packages/desktop` — Electron desktop wrapper
+- `packages/website` — Marketing site (paseo.sh)
 
-## Development Server
+## Documentation

-When running in a worktree or alongside the main checkout, set `PASEO_HOME` to isolate state:
+## Quick start
 
 ```bash
-PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo-blue npm run dev
+npm run dev                          # Start daemon + Expo in Tmux
+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
 ```
 
-- `PASEO_HOME` – path for runtime state (agent data, sockets, etc.). Defaults to `~/.paseo`; set this to a unique directory when running a secondary server instance.
+See [docs/development.md](docs/development.md) for full setup, build sync requirements, and debugging.
 
-## Running and checking logs
+## Critical rules
 
-Both the server and Expo app are running in a Tmux session. See CLAUDE.local.md for system-specific session details.
+- **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.
+- **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 (especially CLI depending on server/daemon types), rebuild the owning package first so `dist` declarations are current:
+  - `npm run build:daemon` — rebuild highlight, relay, server, and CLI when daemon/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`
+- **NEVER make breaking changes to WebSocket or message schemas.** The primary compatibility path is old mobile app clients talking to newly updated daemons. Users update desktop and daemon first, then keep running the old app for a while. Every schema change MUST be backward-compatible for old clients against new daemons:
+  - New fields: always `.optional()` with a sensible default or `.transform()` fallback.
+  - Never change a field from optional to required.
+  - Never remove a field — deprecate it (keep accepting it, stop sending it).
+  - Never narrow a field's type (e.g. `string` → `enum`, `nullable` → non-null).
+  - Test with: "does a 6-month-old client still parse this?" and "does a 6-month-old daemon still send something this client accepts?"
+
+## 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.
 
 ## Debugging
 
-### Daemon and CLI
-
-The Paseo daemon communicates via WebSocket. In the main checkout:
-- Daemon runs at `localhost:6767`
-- Expo app at `localhost:8081`
-- State lives in `$PASEO_HOME`
-
-In worktrees or when running `npm run dev`, ports and home directories may differ. Never assume the defaults.
-
-Use `npm run cli` to run the local CLI (instead of the globally linked `paseo` which points to the main checkout). Always run `npm run cli -- --help` or load the `/paseo` skill before using it - do not guess commands.
-
-Use `--host <host:port>` to point the CLI at a different daemon (e.g., `--host localhost:7777`).
-
-### Quick reference CLI commands
-
-```bash
-npm run cli -- ls -a -g              # List all agents globally
-npm run cli -- ls -a -g --json       # Same, as JSON
-npm run cli -- inspect <id>          # Show detailed agent info
-npm run cli -- logs <id>             # View agent timeline
-npm run cli -- daemon status         # Check daemon status
-```
-
-### Agent state
-
-Agent data is stored at:
-```
-$PASEO_HOME/agents/{cwd-with-dashes}/{agent-id}.json
-```
-
-To find an agent by ID:
-```bash
-find $PASEO_HOME/agents -name "{agent-id}.json"
-```
-
-To find an agent by title or other content:
-```bash
-rg -l "some title text" $PASEO_HOME/agents/
-rg -l "spiteful-toad" $PASEO_HOME/agents/
-```
-
-### Provider session files
-
-Get the session ID from the agent JSON file (`persistence.sessionId`), then:
-
-**Claude sessions:**
-```
-~/.claude/projects/{cwd-with-dashes}/{session-id}.jsonl
-```
-
-**Codex sessions:**
-```
-~/.codex/sessions/{YYYY}/{MM}/{DD}/rollout-{timestamp}-{session-id}.jsonl
-```
-
-## Android
-
-Take screenshots like this: `adb exec-out screencap -p > screenshot.png`
-
-### Android variants (vanilla Expo)
-
-Use `APP_VARIANT` in `packages/app/app.config.js` to control app name + package ID (no custom Gradle flavor plugin):
-
-- `production` -> app name `Paseo`, package `sh.paseo`
-- `development` -> app name `Paseo Debug`, package `sh.paseo.debug`
-
-EAS profiles live in `packages/app/eas.json` as `development` and `production`.
-
-`development` uses Android `debug`.
-
-### Local build + install (Android device)
-
-From `packages/app`:
-
-```bash
-# development (debug)
-APP_VARIANT=development npx expo prebuild --platform android --clean --non-interactive
-APP_VARIANT=development npx expo run:android --variant=debug
-
-# production (release)
-APP_VARIANT=production npx expo prebuild --platform android --clean --non-interactive
-APP_VARIANT=production npx expo run:android --variant=release
-```
-
-From repo root:
-
-```bash
-npm run android:development
-npm run android:production
-```
-
-`npm run android:prod` and `npm run android:release` are aliases for `npm run android:production`.
-
-## Testing with Playwright MCP
-
-**CRITICAL:** When asked to test the app, you MUST use the Playwright MCP connecting to Metro at `http://localhost:8081`.
-
-Use the Playwright MCP to test the app in Metro web. Navigate to `http://localhost:8081` to interact with the app UI.
-
-**Important:** 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 navigation breaks the state.
-
-## Expo troubleshooting
-
-Run `npx expo-doctor` to diagnose version mismatches and native module issues.
-
-## Orchestrator Mode
-
-- **When agent control tool calls fail**, make sure you list agents before trying to launch another one. It could just be a wait timeout.
-- **Always prefix agent titles** so we can tell which ones are running under you (e.g., "🎭 Feature Implementation", "🎭 Design Discussion").
-- **Launch agents in the most permissive mode**: Use full access or bypass permissions mode.
-- **Set cwd to the repository root** - The agent's working directory should usually be the repo root
-
-**CRITICAL: ALWAYS RUN TYPECHECK AFTER EVERY CHANGE.**
-
-## Agent Authentication
-
-All agent providers (Claude, Codex, OpenCode) handle their own authentication outside of environment variables. They are authenticated without providing any extra configuration—Paseo does not manage API keys or tokens for agents.
-
-**Do not add auth checks to tests.** If auth fails for whatever reason, let the user know instead of patching the code or adding conditional skips.
-
-## NEVER DO THESE THINGS
-
-- **NEVER restart the main Paseo daemon on port 6767 without permission** - This is the production daemon that launches and manages agents. If you are reading this, you are probably running as an agent under it. Restarting it will kill your own process and all other running agents. The daemon is managed by the user in Tmux.
-- **NEVER assume a timeout means the service needs restarting** - Timeouts can be transient network issues, not service failures
-- **NEVER add authentication checks to tests** - Agent providers handle their own auth. If tests fail due to auth issues, report it rather than adding conditional skips or env var checks

+# Contributing to Paseo
+
+Thanks for taking the time to contribute.
+
+## How this project works
+
+Paseo is a BDFL project. Product direction, scope, and what ships are the maintainer's call.
+
+This means:
+
+- PRs submitted without prior discussion will likely be rejected, heavily modified, or scoped down.
+- The maintainer may rewrite, split, cherry-pick from, or close any PR at their discretion.
+- There is no obligation to merge a PR as-submitted, regardless of code quality.
+
+This is not meant to discourage contributions. It is meant to set clear expectations so nobody wastes their time.
+
+## How to contribute
+
+1. **Open an issue first.** Describe the problem or improvement. Get a thumbs up before writing code.
+2. **Keep it small.** One bug, one flow, one focused change.
+3. **Open a PR** once there is alignment on scope.
+
+If you want to propose a direction change, start a conversation.
+
+## Before you start
+
+Please read these first:
+
+- [README.md](README.md)
+- [docs/architecture.md](docs/architecture.md)
+- [docs/development.md](docs/development.md)
+- [docs/coding-standards.md](docs/coding-standards.md)
+- [docs/testing.md](docs/testing.md)
+- [CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md)
+
+## What is most helpful
+
+The most useful contributions right now are:
+
+- bug fixes
+- windows and linux specific fixes
+- regression fixes
+- doc improvements
+- packaging / platform fixes
+- focused UX improvements that fit the existing product direction
+- tests that lock down important behavior
+
+## Scope expectations
+
+Please keep PRs narrow.
+
+Good:
+
+- fix one bug
+- improve one flow
+- add one focused panel or command
+- tighten one piece of UI
+
+Bad:
+
+- combine multiple product ideas in one PR
+- bundle unrelated refactors with a feature
+- sneak in roadmap decisions
+
+If a contribution contains multiple ideas, split it up.
+
+## Product fit matters
+
+Paseo is an opinionated product.
+
+When reviewing contributions, the bar is not just:
+
+- is this useful?
+- is this well implemented?
+
+It is also:
+
+- does this fit Paseo?
+- does this add product surface that will be hard to maintain?
+- does the value justify the maintenance surface it adds?
+- does this solve a common need or over-serve an edge case?
+- does this preserve the product's current direction?
+
+## Development setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Node.js matching `.tool-versions`
+- npm workspaces
+
+### Start local development
+
+```bash
+# runs both daemon and expo app
+npm run dev
+```
+
+Useful commands:
+
+```bash
+npm run dev:server
+npm run dev:app
+npm run dev:desktop
+npm run dev:website
+npm run cli -- ls -a -g
+```
+
+Read [docs/development.md](docs/development.md) for build-sync gotchas, local state, ports, and daemon details.
+
+## Multi-platform testing
+
+Paseo ships to mobile (iOS/Android), web, and desktop (Electron). Every UI change must be tested on mobile and web at minimum, and desktop if relevant. Things that look fine on one surface regularly break on another.
+
+Common checks:
+
+```bash
+npm run typecheck
+npm run test --workspaces --if-present
+```
+
+Important rules:
+
+- always run `npm run typecheck` after changes
+- tests should be deterministic
+- prefer real dependencies over mocks when possible
+- do not make breaking WebSocket / protocol changes
+- app and daemon versions in the wild lag each other, so compatibility matters
+
+If you touch protocol or shared client/server behavior, read the compatibility notes in [CLAUDE.md](CLAUDE.md).
+
+## Coding standards
+
+Paseo has explicit standards. Follow them.
+
+The full guide lives in [docs/coding-standards.md](docs/coding-standards.md).
+
+## PR checklist
+
+Before opening a PR, make sure:
+
+- there was prior discussion and alignment on scope (issue or conversation)
+- the change is focused, one idea per PR
+- the PR description explains what changed and why
+- **UI changes include screenshots or videos** for every affected platform (mobile, web, desktop)
+- UI changes have been tested on mobile and web at minimum
+- typecheck passes
+- tests pass, or you clearly explain what could not be run
+- relevant docs were updated if needed
+
+## Communication
+
+If you are unsure whether something fits, ask first.
+
+That is especially true for:
+
+- new core UX
+- naming / terminology changes
+- new extension points
+- new orchestration models
+- anything that would be hard to remove later
+
+Early alignment saves everyone time.
+
+## Forks are fine
+
+If you want to explore a different product direction, a fork is completely fine.
+
+Paseo is open source on purpose. Not every idea needs to land in the main repo to be valuable.

+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
+
+                            Preamble
+
+  The GNU Affero General Public License is a free, copyleft license for
+software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure
+cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.
+
+  The licenses for most software and other practical works are designed
+to take away your freedom to share and change the works.  By contrast,
+our General Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to
+share and change all versions of a program--to make sure it remains free
+software for all its users.
+
+  When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not
+price.  Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you
+have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for
+them if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you
+want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new
+free programs, and that you know you can do these things.
+
+  Developers that use our General Public Licenses protect your rights
+with two steps: (1) assert copyright on the software, and (2) offer
+you this License which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute
+and/or modify the software.
+
+  A secondary benefit of defending all users' freedom is that
+improvements made in alternate versions of the program, if they
+receive widespread use, become available for other developers to
+incorporate.  Many developers of free software are heartened and
+encouraged by the resulting cooperation.  However, in the case of
+software used on network servers, this result may fail to come about.
+The GNU General Public License permits making a modified version and
+letting the public access it on a server without ever releasing its
+source code to the public.
+
+  The GNU Affero General Public License is designed specifically to
+ensure that, in such cases, the modified source code becomes available
+to the community.  It requires the operator of a network server to
+provide the source code of the modified version running there to the
+users of that server.  Therefore, public use of a modified version, on
+a publicly accessible server, gives the public access to the source
+code of the modified version.
+
+  An older license, called the Affero General Public License and
+published by Affero, was designed to accomplish similar goals.  This is
+a different license, not a version of the Affero GPL, but Affero has
+released a new version of the Affero GPL which permits relicensing under
+this license.
+
+  The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
+modification follow.
+
+                       TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+  0. Definitions.
+
+  "This License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Affero General Public License.
+
+  "Copyright" also means copyright-like laws that apply to other kinds of
+works, such as semiconductor masks.
+
+  "The Program" refers to any copyrightable work licensed under this
+License.  Each licensee is addressed as "you".  "Licensees" and
+"recipients" may be individuals or organizations.
+
+  To "modify" a work means to copy from or adapt all or part of the work
+in a fashion requiring copyright permission, other than the making of an
+exact copy.  The resulting work is called a "modified version" of the
+earlier work or a work "based on" the earlier work.
+
+  A "covered work" means either the unmodified Program or a work based
+on the Program.
+
+  To "propagate" a work means to do anything with it that, without
+permission, would make you directly or secondarily liable for
+infringement under applicable copyright law, except executing it on a
+computer or modifying a private copy.  Propagation includes copying,
+distribution (with or without modification), making available to the
+public, and in some countries other activities as well.
+
+  To "convey" a work means any kind of propagation that enables other
+parties to make or receive copies.  Mere interaction with a user through
+a computer network, with no transfer of a copy, is not conveying.
+
+  An interactive user interface displays "Appropriate Legal Notices"
+to the extent that it includes a convenient and prominently visible
+feature that (1) displays an appropriate copyright notice, and (2)
+tells the user that there is no warranty for the work (except to the
+extent that warranties are provided), that licensees may convey the
+work under this License, and how to view a copy of this License.  If
+the interface presents a list of user commands or options, such as a
+menu, a prominent item in the list meets this criterion.
+
+  1. Source Code.
+
+  The "source code" for a work means the preferred form of the work
+for making modifications to it.  "Object code" means any non-source
+form of a work.
+
+  A "Standard Interface" means an interface that either is an official
+standard defined by a recognized standards body, or, in the case of
+interfaces specified for a particular programming language, one that
+is widely used among developers working in that language.
+
+  The "System Libraries" of an executable work include anything, other
+than the work as a whole, that (a) is included in the normal form of
+packaging a Major Component, but which is not part of that Major
+Component, and (b) serves only to enable use of the work with that
+Major Component, or to implement a Standard Interface for which an
+implementation is available to the public in source code form.  A
+"Major Component", in this context, means a major essential component
+(kernel, window system, and so on) of the specific operating system
+(if any) on which the executable work runs, or a compiler used to
+produce the work, or an object code interpreter used to run it.
+
+  The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all
+the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable
+work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to
+control those activities.  However, it does not include the work's
+System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free
+programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but
+which are not part of the work.  For example, Corresponding Source
+includes interface definition files associated with source files for
+the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically
+linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require,
+such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those
+subprograms and other parts of the work.
+
+  The Corresponding Source need not include anything that users
+can regenerate automatically from other parts of the Corresponding
+Source.
+
+  The Corresponding Source for a work in source code form is that
+same work.
+
+  2. Basic Permissions.
+
+  All rights granted under this License are granted for the term of
+copyright on the Program, and are irrevocable provided the stated
+conditions are met.  This License explicitly affirms your unlimited
+permission to run the unmodified Program.  The output from running a
+covered work is covered by this License only if the output, given its
+content, constitutes a covered work.  This License acknowledges your
+rights of fair use or other equivalent, as provided by copyright law.
+
+  You may make, run and propagate covered works that you do not
+convey, without conditions so long as your license otherwise remains
+in force.  You may convey covered works to others for the sole purpose
+of having them make modifications exclusively for you, or provide you
+with facilities for running those works, provided that you comply with
+the terms of this License in conveying all material for which you do
+not control copyright.  Those thus making or running the covered works
+for you must do so exclusively on your behalf, under your direction
+and control, on terms that prohibit them from making any copies of
+your copyrighted material outside their relationship with you.
+
+  Conveying under any other circumstances is permitted solely under
+the conditions stated below.  Sublicensing is not allowed; section 10
+makes it unnecessary.
+
+  3. Protecting Users' Legal Rights From Anti-Circumvention Law.
+
+  No covered work shall be deemed part of an effective technological
+measure under any applicable law fulfilling obligations under article
+11 of the WIPO copyright treaty adopted on 20 December 1996, or
+similar laws prohibiting or restricting circumvention of such
+measures.
+
+  When you convey a covered work, you waive any legal power to forbid
+circumvention of technological measures to the extent such circumvention
+is effected by exercising rights under this License with respect to
+the covered work, and you disclaim any intention to limit operation or
+modification of the work as a means of enforcing, against the work's
+users, your or third parties' legal rights to forbid circumvention of
+technological measures.
+
+  4. Conveying Verbatim Copies.
+
+  You may convey verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you
+receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and
+appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice;
+keep intact all notices stating that this License and any
+non-permissive terms added in accord with section 7 apply to the code;
+keep intact all notices of the absence of any warranty; and give all
+recipients a copy of this License along with the Program.
+
+  You may charge any price or no price for each copy that you convey,
+and you may offer support or warranty protection for a fee.
+
+  5. Conveying Modified Source Versions.
+
+  You may convey a work based on the Program, or the modifications to
+produce it from the Program, in the form of source code under the
+terms of section 4, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
+
+    a) The work must carry prominent notices stating that you modified
+    it, and giving a relevant date.
+
+    b) The work must carry prominent notices stating that it is
+    released under this License and any conditions added under section
+    7.  This requirement modifies the requirement in section 4 to
+    "keep intact all notices".
+
+    c) You must license the entire work, as a whole, under this
+    License to anyone who comes into possession of a copy.  This
+    License will therefore apply, along with any applicable section 7
+    additional terms, to the whole of the work, and all its parts,
+    regardless of how they are packaged.  This License gives no
+    permission to license the work in any other way, but it does not
+    invalidate such permission if you have separately received it.
+
+    d) If the work has interactive user interfaces, each must display
+    Appropriate Legal Notices; however, if the Program has interactive
+    interfaces that do not display Appropriate Legal Notices, your
+    work need not make them do so.
+
+  A compilation of a covered work with other separate and independent
+works, which are not by their nature extensions of the covered work,
+and which are not combined with it such as to form a larger program,
+in or on a volume of a storage or distribution medium, is called an
+"aggregate" if the compilation and its resulting copyright are not
+used to limit the access or legal rights of the compilation's users
+beyond what the individual works permit.  Inclusion of a covered work
+in an aggregate does not cause this License to apply to the other
+parts of the aggregate.
+
+  6. Conveying Non-Source Forms.
+
+  You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms
+of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the
+machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License,
+in one of these ways:
+
+    a) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by the
+    Corresponding Source fixed on a durable physical medium
+    customarily used for software interchange.
+
+    b) Convey the object code in, or embodied in, a physical product
+    (including a physical distribution medium), accompanied by a
+    written offer, valid for at least three years and valid for as
+    long as you offer spare parts or customer support for that product
+    model, to give anyone who possesses the object code either (1) a
+    copy of the Corresponding Source for all the software in the
+    product that is covered by this License, on a durable physical
+    medium customarily used for software interchange, for a price no
+    more than your reasonable cost of physically performing this
+    conveying of source, or (2) access to copy the
+    Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge.
+
+    c) Convey individual copies of the object code with a copy of the
+    written offer to provide the Corresponding Source.  This
+    alternative is allowed only occasionally and noncommercially, and
+    only if you received the object code with such an offer, in accord
+    with subsection 6b.
+
+    d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated
+    place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the
+    Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no
+    further charge.  You need not require recipients to copy the
+    Corresponding Source along with the object code.  If the place to
+    copy the object code is a network server, the Corresponding Source
+    may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party)
+    that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain
+    clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the
+    Corresponding Source.  Regardless of what server hosts the
+    Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is
+    available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
+
+    e) Convey the object code using peer-to-peer transmission, provided
+    you inform other peers where the object code and Corresponding
+    Source of the work are being offered to the general public at no
+    charge under subsection 6d.
+
+  A separable portion of the object code, whose source code is excluded
+from the Corresponding Source as a System Library, need not be
+included in conveying the object code work.
+
+  A "User Product" is either (1) a "consumer product", which means any
+tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family,
+or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation
+into a dwelling.  In determining whether a product is a consumer product,
+doubtful cases shall be resolved in favor of coverage.  For a particular
+product received by a particular user, "normally used" refers to a
+typical or common use of that class of product, regardless of the status
+of the particular user or of the way in which the particular user
+actually uses, or expects or is expected to use, the product.  A product
+is a consumer product regardless of whether the product has substantial
+commercial, industrial or non-consumer uses, unless such uses represent
+the only significant mode of use of the product.
+
+  "Installation Information" for a User Product means any methods,
+procedures, authorization keys, or other information required to install
+and execute modified versions of a covered work in that User Product from
+a modified version of its Corresponding Source.  The information must
+suffice to ensure that the continued functioning of the modified object
+code is in no case prevented or interfered with solely because
+modification has been made.
+
+  If you convey an object code work under this section in, or with, or
+specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as
+part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the
+User Product is transferred to the recipient in perpetuity or for a
+fixed term (regardless of how the transaction is characterized), the
+Corresponding Source conveyed under this section must be accompanied
+by the Installation Information.  But this requirement does not apply
+if neither you nor any third party retains the ability to install
+modified object code on the User Product (for example, the work has
+been installed in ROM).
+
+  The requirement to provide Installation Information does not include a
+requirement to continue to provide support service, warranty, or updates
+for a work that has been modified or installed by the recipient, or for
+the User Product in which it has been modified or installed.  Access to a
+network may be denied when the modification itself materially and
+adversely affects the operation of the network or violates the rules and
+protocols for communication across the network.
+
+  Corresponding Source conveyed, and Installation Information provided,
+in accord with this section must be in a format that is publicly
+documented (and with an implementation available to the public in
+source code form), and must require no special password or key for
+unpacking, reading or copying.
+
+  7. Additional Terms.
+
+  "Additional permissions" are terms that supplement the terms of this
+License by making exceptions from one or more of its conditions.
+Additional permissions that are applicable to the entire Program shall
+be treated as though they were included in this License, to the extent
+that they are valid under applicable law.  If additional permissions
+apply only to part of the Program, that part may be used separately
+under those permissions, but the entire Program remains governed by
+this License without regard to the additional permissions.
+
+  When you convey a copy of a covered work, you may at your option
+remove any additional permissions from that copy, or from any part of
+it.  (Additional permissions may be written to require their own
+removal in certain cases when you modify the work.)  You may place
+additional permissions on material, added by you to a covered work,
+for which you have or can give appropriate copyright permission.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, for material you
+add to a covered work, you may (if authorized by the copyright holders of
+that material) supplement the terms of this License with terms:
+
+    a) Disclaiming warranty or limiting liability differently from the
+    terms of sections 15 and 16 of this License; or
+
+    b) Requiring preservation of specified reasonable legal notices or
+    author attributions in that material or in the Appropriate Legal
+    Notices displayed by works containing it; or
+
+    c) Prohibiting misrepresentation of the origin of that material, or
+    requiring that modified versions of such material be marked in
+    reasonable ways as different from the original version; or
+
+    d) Limiting the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or
+    authors of the material; or
+
+    e) Declining to grant rights under trademark law for use of some
+    trade names, trademarks, or service marks; or
+
+    f) Requiring indemnification of licensors and authors of that
+    material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of
+    it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for
+    any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on
+    those licensors and authors.
+
+  All other non-permissive additional terms are considered "further
+restrictions" within the meaning of section 10.  If the Program as you
+received it, or any part of it, contains a notice stating that it is
+governed by this License along with a term that is a further
+restriction, you may remove that term.  If a license document contains
+a further restriction but permits relicensing or conveying under this
+License, you may add to a covered work material governed by the terms
+of that license document, provided that the further restriction does
+not survive such relicensing or conveying.
+
+  If you add terms to a covered work in accord with this section, you
+must place, in the relevant source files, a statement of the
+additional terms that apply to those files, or a notice indicating
+where to find the applicable terms.
+
+  Additional terms, permissive or non-permissive, may be stated in the
+form of a separately written license, or stated as exceptions;
+the above requirements apply either way.
+
+  8. Termination.
+
+  You may not propagate or modify a covered work except as expressly
+provided under this License.  Any attempt otherwise to propagate or
+modify it is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under
+this License (including any patent licenses granted under the third
+paragraph of section 11).
+
+  However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
+license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
+provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
+finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the copyright
+holder fails to notify you of the violation by some reasonable means
+prior to 60 days after the cessation.
+
+  Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
+reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
+violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
+received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from that
+copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days after
+your receipt of the notice.
+
+  Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate the
+licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you under
+this License.  If your rights have been terminated and not permanently
+reinstated, you do not qualify to receive new licenses for the same
+material under section 10.
+
+  9. Acceptance Not Required for Having Copies.
+
+  You are not required to accept this License in order to receive or
+run a copy of the Program.  Ancillary propagation of a covered work
+occurring solely as a consequence of using peer-to-peer transmission
+to receive a copy likewise does not require acceptance.  However,
+nothing other than this License grants you permission to propagate or
+modify any covered work.  These actions infringe copyright if you do
+not accept this License.  Therefore, by modifying or propagating a
+covered work, you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so.
+
+  10. Automatic Licensing of Downstream Recipients.
+
+  Each time you convey a covered work, the recipient automatically
+receives a license from the original licensors, to run, modify and
+propagate that work, subject to this License.  You are not responsible
+for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
+
+  An "entity transaction" is a transaction transferring control of an
+organization, or substantially all assets of one, or subdividing an
+organization, or merging organizations.  If propagation of a covered
+work results from an entity transaction, each party to that
+transaction who receives a copy of the work also receives whatever
+licenses to the work the party's predecessor in interest had or could
+give under the previous paragraph, plus a right to possession of the
+Corresponding Source of the work from the predecessor in interest, if
+the predecessor has it or can get it with reasonable efforts.
+
+  You may not impose any further restrictions on the exercise of the
+rights granted or affirmed under this License.  For example, you may
+not impose a license fee, royalty, or other charge for exercise of
+rights granted under this License, and you may not initiate litigation
+(including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a lawsuit) alleging that
+any patent claim is infringed by making, using, selling, offering for
+sale, or importing the Program or any portion of it.
+
+  11. Patents.
+
+  A "contributor" is a copyright holder who authorizes use under this
+License of the Program or a work on which the Program is based.  The
+work thus licensed is called the contributor's "contributor version".
+
+  A contributor's "essential patent claims" are all patent claims
+owned or controlled by the contributor, whether already acquired or
+hereafter acquired, that would be infringed by some manner, permitted
+by this License, of making, using, or selling its contributor version,
+but do not include claims that would be infringed only as a
+consequence of further modification of the contributor version.  For
+purposes of this definition, "control" includes the right to grant
+patent sublicenses in a manner consistent with the requirements of
+this License.
+
+  Each contributor grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free
+patent license under the contributor's essential patent claims, to
+make, use, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise run, modify and
+propagate the contents of its contributor version.
+
+  In the following three paragraphs, a "patent license" is any express
+agreement or commitment, however denominated, not to enforce a patent
+(such as an express permission to practice a patent or covenant not to
+sue for patent infringement).  To "grant" such a patent license to a
+party means to make such an agreement or commitment not to enforce a
+patent against the party.
+
+  If you convey a covered work, knowingly relying on a patent license,
+and the Corresponding Source of the work is not available for anyone
+to copy, free of charge and under the terms of this License, through a
+publicly available network server or other readily accessible means,
+then you must either (1) cause the Corresponding Source to be so
+available, or (2) arrange to deprive yourself of the benefit of the
+patent license for this particular work, or (3) arrange, in a manner
+consistent with the requirements of this License, to extend the patent
+license to downstream recipients.  "Knowingly relying" means you have
+actual knowledge that, but for the patent license, your conveying the
+covered work in a country, or your recipient's use of the covered work
+in a country, would infringe one or more identifiable patents in that
+country that you have reason to believe are valid.
+
+  If, pursuant to or in connection with a single transaction or
+arrangement, you convey, or propagate by procuring conveyance of, a
+covered work, and grant a patent license to some of the parties
+receiving the covered work authorizing them to use, propagate, modify
+or convey a specific copy of the covered work, then the patent license
+you grant is automatically extended to all recipients of the covered
+work and works based on it.
+
+  A patent license is "discriminatory" if it does not include within
+the scope of its coverage, prohibits the exercise of, or is
+conditioned on the non-exercise of one or more of the rights that are
+specifically granted under this License.  You may not convey a covered
+work if you are a party to an arrangement with a third party that is
+in the business of distributing software, under which you make payment
+to the third party based on the extent of your activity of conveying
+the work, and under which the third party grants, to any of the
+parties who would receive the covered work from you, a discriminatory
+patent license (a) in connection with copies of the covered work
+conveyed by you (or copies made from those copies), or (b) primarily
+for and in connection with specific products or compilations that
+contain the covered work, unless you entered into that arrangement,
+or that patent license was granted, prior to 28 March 2007.
+
+  Nothing in this License shall be construed as excluding or limiting
+any implied license or other defenses to infringement that may
+otherwise be available to you under applicable patent law.
+
+  12. No Surrender of Others' Freedom.
+
+  If conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or
+otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not
+excuse you from the conditions of this License.  If you cannot convey a
+covered work so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this
+License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
+not convey it at all.  For example, if you agree to terms that obligate you
+to collect a royalty for further conveying from those to whom you convey
+the Program, the only way you could satisfy both those terms and this
+License would be to refrain entirely from conveying the Program.
+
+  13. Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public License.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the
+Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users
+interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version
+supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding
+Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source
+from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary
+means of facilitating copying of software.  This Corresponding Source
+shall include the Corresponding Source for any work covered by version 3
+of the GNU General Public License that is incorporated pursuant to the
+following paragraph.
+
+  Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, you have
+permission to link or combine any covered work with a work licensed
+under version 3 of the GNU General Public License into a single
+combined work, and to convey the resulting work.  The terms of this
+License will continue to apply to the part which is the covered work,
+but the work with which it is combined will remain governed by version
+3 of the GNU General Public License.
+
+  14. Revised Versions of this License.
+
+  The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of
+the GNU Affero General Public License from time to time.  Such new versions
+will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to
+address new problems or concerns.
+
+  Each version is given a distinguishing version number.  If the
+Program specifies that a certain numbered version of the GNU Affero General
+Public License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the
+option of following the terms and conditions either of that numbered
+version or of any later version published by the Free Software
+Foundation.  If the Program does not specify a version number of the
+GNU Affero General Public License, you may choose any version ever published
+by the Free Software Foundation.
+
+  If the Program specifies that a proxy can decide which future
+versions of the GNU Affero General Public License can be used, that proxy's
+public statement of acceptance of a version permanently authorizes you
+to choose that version for the Program.
+
+  Later license versions may give you additional or different
+permissions.  However, no additional obligations are imposed on any
+author or copyright holder as a result of your choosing to follow a
+later version.
+
+  15. Disclaimer of Warranty.
+
+  THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
+APPLICABLE LAW.  EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT
+HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY
+OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO,
+THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
+PURPOSE.  THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM
+IS WITH YOU.  SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF
+ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
+
+  16. Limitation of Liability.
+
+  IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING
+WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MODIFIES AND/OR CONVEYS
+THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY
+GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE
+USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
+DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD
+PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
+EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
+SUCH DAMAGES.
+
+  17. Interpretation of Sections 15 and 16.
+
+  If the disclaimer of warranty and limitation of liability provided
+above cannot be given local legal effect according to their terms,
+reviewing courts shall apply local law that most closely approximates
+an absolute waiver of all civil liability in connection with the
+Program, unless a warranty or assumption of liability accompanies a
+copy of the Program in return for a fee.
+
+                     END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
+
+            How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
+
+  If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest
+possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it
+free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.
+
+  To do so, attach the following notices to the program.  It is safest
+to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively
+state the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least
+the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.
+
+    <one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
+    Copyright (C) <year>  <name of author>
+
+    This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify
+    it under the terms of the GNU Affero General Public License as published by
+    the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or
+    (at your option) any later version.
+
+    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
+    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
+    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
+    GNU Affero General Public License for more details.
+
+    You should have received a copy of the GNU Affero General Public License
+    along with this program.  If not, see <https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.
+
+Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.
+
+  If your software can interact with users remotely through a computer
+network, you should also make sure that it provides a way for users to
+get its source.  For example, if your program is a web application, its
+interface could display a "Source" link that leads users to an archive
+of the code.  There are many ways you could offer source, and different
+solutions will be better for different programs; see section 13 for the
+specific requirements.
+
+  You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or school,
+if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary.
+For more information on this, and how to apply and follow the GNU AGPL, see
+<https://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

-> [!WARNING]
-> **Early development** — Features may break or change without notice. Use at your own risk.
+Run agents in parallel on your own machines. Ship from your phone or your desk.
 
-Paseo is a self-hosted daemon for Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode. Agents run on your machine with your full dev environment. Connect from phone, desktop, or web.
+- **Self-hosted:** Agents run on your machine with your full dev environment. Use your tools, your configs, and your skills.
+- **Multi-provider:** Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode through the same interface. Pick the right model for each job.
+- **Voice control:** Dictate tasks or talk through problems in voice mode. Hands-free when you need it.
+- **Cross-device:** iOS, Android, desktop, web, and CLI. Start work at your desk, check in from your phone, script it from the terminal.
+- **Privacy-first:** Paseo doesn't have any telemetry, tracking, or forced log-ins.
 
-## Features
+## Getting Started
 
-- **Self-hosted:** The daemon runs on your laptop, home server, or VPS
-- **Multi-provider:** Works with Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode from one interface
-- **Multi-host:** Connect to multiple daemons and see all your agents in one place
-- **Voice input:** Dictate prompts when you're away from your keyboard
-- **Optional relay:** Use the hosted end-to-end encrypted relay, or connect directly
-- **Cross-device:** iOS, Android, desktop, web, and CLI
-- **Git integration:** Manage agents in isolated worktrees, review diffs, ship from the app
-- **Open source:** Free and open source under MIT license
+Paseo runs a local server called the daemon that manages your coding agents. Clients like the desktop app, mobile app, web app, and CLI connect to it.
 
-## Quick Start
+### Prerequisites
+
+You need at least one agent CLI installed and configured with your credentials:
+
+- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code)
+- [Codex](https://github.com/openai/codex)
+- [OpenCode](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode)
+
+### Desktop app (recommended)
+
+Download it from [paseo.sh/download](https://paseo.sh/download) or the [GitHub releases page](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/releases). Open the app and the daemon starts automatically. Nothing else to install.
+
+To connect from your phone, scan the QR code shown in Settings.
+
+### CLI / headless
+
+Install the CLI and start Paseo:
 
 ```bash
-npm install -g @getpaseo/cli && paseo
+npm install -g @getpaseo/cli
+paseo
 ```
 
-Then open the app and connect to your daemon.
+This shows a QR code in the terminal. Connect from any client. This path is useful for servers and remote machines.
 
-## Local speech (STT/TTS)
+For full setup and configuration, see:
 
-Paseo can run dictation + voice mode STT/TTS fully locally via `sherpa-onnx`.
+- [Docs](https://paseo.sh/docs)
+- [Configuration reference](https://paseo.sh/docs/configuration)
 
-When the daemon starts with a local speech provider selected, it will download any missing model files automatically (unless `PASEO_SHERPA_ONNX_AUTO_DOWNLOAD=0`).
+## CLI
+
+Everything you can do in the app, you can do from the terminal.
 
 ```bash
-npm run speech:download --workspace=@getpaseo/server
+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                           # list running agents
+paseo attach abc123                # stream live output
+paseo send abc123 "also add tests" # follow-up task
+
+# run on a remote daemon
+paseo --host workstation.local:6767 run "run the full test suite"
 ```
 
-Optional configuration:
+See the [full CLI reference](https://paseo.sh/docs/cli) for more.
 
-- `PASEO_SHERPA_ONNX_MODELS_DIR` (defaults to `~/.paseo/models/sherpa-onnx`)
-- `PASEO_SHERPA_ONNX_AUTO_DOWNLOAD` (`1` by default; set `0` to disable automatic downloads on daemon start)
-- `PASEO_SHERPA_STT_PRESET` (`zipformer`, `paraformer`, or `parakeet` for NVIDIA Parakeet TDT v3)
-- `PASEO_SHERPA_TTS_PRESET` (`pocket-tts` (Kyutai Pocket TTS), `kitten`, or `kokoro`)
-- `PASEO_DICTATION_STT_PROVIDER`, `PASEO_VOICE_STT_PROVIDER`, `PASEO_VOICE_TTS_PROVIDER` (`sherpa` or `openai`)
+## Orchestration skills (Unstable)
 
-To see all supported local model IDs:
+Experimental skills that teach agents how to use the Paseo CLI to orchestrate other agents. I am updating these very frequently as I learn new things, expect changes without notice, might be coupled to my own setup, use at your own risk.
 
 ```bash
-npm run speech:models --workspace=@getpaseo/server
+npx skills add getpaseo/paseo
 ```
 
-Optional: run an end-to-end test that downloads real models and exercises streaming STT + streaming TTS:
+Then use them in any agent conversation:
 
 ```bash
-PASEO_SPEECH_E2E_DOWNLOAD=1 PASEO_SPEECH_E2E_MODEL_SET=parakeet-pocket \
-  npx vitest run --workspace=@getpaseo/server src/server/speech/sherpa/speech-download.e2e.test.ts
+# Use handoff when you discuss something with an agent but want another one to implement.
+# I use this to plan with Claude and then handoff to Codex to implement.
+/paseo-handoff hand off the authentication fix to codex 5.4 in a worktree
+
+# Use loops when you have clear acceptance criteria (aka Ralph loops).
+/paseo-loop loop a codex agent to fix the backend tests, use sonnet to verify, max 10 iterations
+
+# Orchestrator teaches the agent how to create teams and manage them via a chat room.
+# Very opinionated and expects both Codex and Claude to work.
+/paseo-orchestrator spin up a team to implement the database refactor, use chat to coordinate. use claude to plan and codex to implement and review
 ```
 
-## Documentation
+## Development
 
-See [paseo.sh/docs](https://paseo.sh/docs) for full documentation.
+Quick monorepo package map:
 
-## Desktop releases
+- `packages/server`: Paseo daemon (agent process orchestration, WebSocket API, MCP server)
+- `packages/app`: Expo client (iOS, Android, web)
+- `packages/cli`: `paseo` CLI for daemon and agent workflows
+- `packages/desktop`: Electron desktop app
+- `packages/relay`: Relay package for remote connectivity
+- `packages/website`: Marketing site and documentation (`paseo.sh`)
 
-Desktop app binaries are built and attached to a GitHub Release when you push a version tag (for example `v0.1.0` or `desktop-v0.1.0`).
+Common commands:
 
 ```bash
-git tag v0.1.0
-git push origin v0.1.0
+# run all local dev services
+npm run dev
+
+# run individual surfaces
+npm run dev:server
+npm run dev:app
+npm run dev:desktop
+npm run dev:website
+
+# build the daemon
+npm run build:daemon
+
+# repo-wide checks
+npm run typecheck
 ```
 
-If you prefer, `npm version` can be used to create and push a version tag.
-
-This triggers the `Desktop Release` workflow (`.github/workflows/desktop-release.yml`).

+- **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`. The local control plane is trusted by network reachability, not by an additional authentication token.
+
+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.
+
+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.
+
+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).

+# Ad-hoc daemon testing
+
+Spin up an isolated daemon programmatically without touching the main daemon on port 6767.
+
+## 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:${port}/ws`,
+  appVersion: "0.1.54", // see gotcha #1
+});
+await client.connect();
+await client.fetchAgents({ subscribe: { subscriptionId: "test" } });
+
+// ... do your testing ...
+
+await client.close();
+await daemon.stop();
+await rm(paseoHomeRoot, { recursive: true, force: true });
+await rm(staticDir, { recursive: true, force: true });
+```
+
+Run with:
+
+```bash
+npx tsx packages/server/src/server/your-script.ts
+```
+
+## Using the test helper
+
+For simpler cases, `createTestPaseoDaemon` + `DaemonClient` handles temp dirs and port selection:
+
+```typescript
+import { createTestPaseoDaemon } from "./test-utils/paseo-daemon.js";
+import { DaemonClient } from "./test-utils/daemon-client.js";
+
+const daemon = await createTestPaseoDaemon();
+const client = new DaemonClient({
+  url: `ws://127.0.0.1:${daemon.port}/ws`,
+  appVersion: "0.1.54",
+});
+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`. 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: "0.1.54",
+});
+```
+
+### 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.

+# Architecture
+
+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
+
+**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
+
+### 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
+
+```
+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

+# 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). 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
+
+---
+
+## 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"
+        },
+        "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": {
+    "providers": {
+      "qwen": {
+        "extends": "claude",
+        "label": "Qwen (Alibaba)",
+        "env": {
+          "ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN": "sk-sp-<your-coding-plan-key>",
+          "ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL": "https://coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/apps/anthropic"
+        },
+        "models": [
+          { "id": "qwen3.5-plus", "label": "Qwen 3.5 Plus", "isDefault": true },
+          { "id": "qwen3-coder-next", "label": "Qwen 3 Coder Next" },
+          { "id": "kimi-k2.5", "label": "Kimi K2.5" }
+        ]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### API endpoints
+
+| Mode                            | Base URL                                                    |
+| ------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |

+| Pay-as-you-go (no subscription) | `https://dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/apps/anthropic`        |
+
+For pay-as-you-go, use `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` with a standard Model Studio key (`sk-xxxxx`) instead of `ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN`.
+
+### Available models
+
+**Recommended for coding plan:**
+
+| Model              | Notes                       |

+| `MiniMax-M2.5`     | MiniMax                     |
+
+**Additional models (pay-as-you-go):**
+`qwen3-max`, `qwen3.5-flash`, `qwen3-coder-plus`, `qwen3-coder-flash`, `qwen3-vl-plus`, `qwen3-vl-flash`
+
+### Notes
+
+- API keys must be created in the **Singapore region**
+- The coding plan is for personal use only in interactive coding tools
+- Web search (`WebSearch` tool) is an Anthropic-only server-side feature — third-party endpoints don't support it. Add `"disallowedTools": ["WebSearch"]` to avoid errors.

+
+## 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.
+
+---
+
+## 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 (providers are enabled by default).
+
+---
+
+## 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.
+
+### 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)
+
+### Example: Google Gemini CLI
+
+[Gemini CLI](https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli) supports ACP via the `--acp` flag.
+
+1. Install: `npm install -g @anthropic-ai/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                 |
+| `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 |
+
+### 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"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Valid `extends` values
+
+Built-in providers: `claude`, `codex`, `copilot`, `opencode`, `pi`
+
+Special value: `acp` — creates a generic ACP provider (requires `command`)
+
+### Full example

+# Design system
+
+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:31-34`), 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:3052-3057`).
+- **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: `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.
+
+`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:1056-1062`, `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 daemon version mismatch 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/daemon-version-mismatch-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>`.
+
+---
+
+## 13. Forbidden
+
+- `fontWeight.medium` on row titles, body text, button labels, badge text, or `<SidebarCallout>` titles. Medium is reserved for the structural-label tier described in §3 — section labels, modal/sheet titles, dense metadata emphasis, and tight action labels. Anything else is `normal`. `<ScreenTitle>` is responsive `400/300` and is never overridden.
+- `<Pressable>` wrapping `<Text>` to make a button. `<Button>` exists.
+- Bare `<Text>` for a section header inside settings. `<SettingsSection>` exists.
+- A "Settings" CTA on a detail page. Detail pages are settings; settings is reached from the sidebar, the host entry, or a row's kebab menu.
+- The word "checkout" in UI strings or identifiers. The term is "workspace".
+- New color tokens or hardcoded hex outside the palette. Status pill rgba backgrounds are the documented pattern (§12), not a license.
+- Placeholder text dimmed beyond `foregroundMuted`. No extra opacity, no italics, no ghost-text.
+- `onPointerEnter` and `onPointerLeave`. They do not fire on native iOS. Hover uses Pressable's `onHoverIn`/`onHoverOut` gated with `isHovered || isCompact || isNative`.
+- Raw DOM APIs without an `isWeb` guard.
+- Spacing values outside the scale. `padding: 20` and `gap: 10` are wrong.
+- Color changes for disabled state. Opacity only.
+- Destructive actions without `confirmDialog`. Restart, remove, archive, and any future destructive action are confirmed.
+- Bespoke status pills. `<StatusBadge>` is the pill primitive.
+- Raw `Modal` for a focused task. `<AdaptiveModalSheet>` is the modal primitive.
+- Importing `ActivityIndicator` directly. `<LoadingSpinner>` is the loading primitive.

+# 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`.
+- In git worktrees, `npm run dev` derives a stable home like `~/.paseo-<worktree-name>`.
+  On first run, it seeds that home from `~/.paseo` by copying agent/project JSON metadata
+  and `config.json`; actual checkout/worktree directories are not copied.
+- `PASEO_DEV_SEED_HOME=/path/to/home npm run dev` seeds from a different source home.
+- `PASEO_DEV_RESET_HOME=1 npm run dev` clears and reseeds the derived worktree home.
+
+### 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.

+
+Check `$PASEO_HOME/daemon.log` for trace-level logs.
+
+### Database queries
+
+Run arbitrary SQL against the SQLite database:
+
+```bash
+# Show table row counts
+npm run db:query
+
+# Run any SQL
+npm run db:query -- "SELECT agent_id, title, last_status FROM agent_snapshots"
+npm run db:query -- "SELECT agent_id, seq, item_kind FROM agent_timeline_rows ORDER BY committed_at DESC LIMIT 10"
+
+# Point at a specific DB directory
+npm run db:query -- --db /path/to/db "SELECT ..."
+```
+
+Auto-detects the running dev daemon's database from `/tmp/paseo-dev.*`, `PASEO_HOME`, or `~/.paseo/db`.
+Pass either a DB directory or a `paseo.sqlite` file to `--db`. The script opens the database directly in read-only mode.
+
+## paseo.json service scripts
+
+`worktree.setup` and `worktree.teardown` accept either a multiline shell script or an array
+of commands. Both run sequentially.
+
+```json
+{
+  "worktree": {
+    "setup": "npm ci\ncp \"$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 daemon 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.                                                                                        |
+
+`<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=$PASEO_PORT npm run dev:web"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Build sync gotchas
+
+### Relay → Daemon
+
+When changing `packages/relay/src/*`, rebuild before running the daemon:
+
+```bash
+npm run build --workspace=@getpaseo/relay
+```
+
+The Node daemon imports `@getpaseo/relay` from `packages/relay/dist/*`, not `src/*`.
+
+### Server → CLI
+
+When changing `packages/server/src/client/*` (especially `daemon-client.ts`) or shared WS protocol types, rebuild before running CLI commands:
+
+```bash
+npm run build --workspace=@getpaseo/server
+```
+
+The CLI imports `@getpaseo/server` via package exports resolving to `dist/*`. Stale `dist` means the CLI speaks an old protocol and fails with handshake warnings or timeouts.
+
+## CLI reference
+
+Use `npm run cli` to run the local CLI (instead of the globally installed `paseo` which points to the main checkout).
+
+```bash
+npm run cli -- ls -a -g              # List all agents globally
+npm run cli -- ls -a -g --json       # Same, as JSON
+npm run cli -- inspect <id>          # Show detailed agent info
+npm run cli -- logs <id>             # View agent timeline
+npm run cli -- daemon status         # Check daemon status
+```
+
+Use `--host <host:port>` to point the CLI at a different daemon:
+
+```bash
+npm run cli -- --host localhost:7777 ls -a
+```
+
+## Agent state
+
+Agent data lives at:
+
+```
+$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.

+# 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
+
+## 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:
+

+# Paseo Glossary
+
+Authoritative terminology. UI label wins. Don't invent synonyms; use what's here.
+
+- **Project** — Logical grouping of workspaces sharing a git remote (or main repo root). UI: "Project" / "Add a project". Code: `ProjectSummary` (`packages/app/src/utils/projects.ts:17`), `projectKey` (`packages/server/src/server/workspace-registry-model.ts:88`). Forbidden: "Repo", "Repository" as UI label.
+- **Workspace** — One concrete `cwd` on one daemon, with git state; belongs to exactly one project. UI: "Workspace". Code: `WorkspaceDescriptorPayload` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:2128`). 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:9`).
+- **Agent** — One AI coding agent run on a daemon (one provider, one model, one cwd, one timeline). UI: "Agent" / "New Agent". Code: `AgentSnapshotPayload` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:597`). Forbidden: "Task", "Job", "Run".
+- **Daemon** — Local Paseo server process; identified by `serverId`. UI: "Daemon" (system contexts only). Code: `serverId` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:1886`), `DaemonClient` (`packages/server/src/client/daemon-client.ts`).
+- **Host** — Client-side connection profile pointing at a daemon; bundles one or more `HostConnection`s. UI: "Host" / "Add host" / "Switch host". Code: `HostProfile` (`packages/app/src/types/host-connection.ts:36`). Forbidden: "Connection" (means `HostConnection`, not host).
+- **Placement** — One workspace's relationship to its project (projectKey, projectName, git checkout snapshot). Internal. Code: `ProjectPlacementPayload` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:2063`).
+- **Branch** — Plain git branch. UI: "Switch branch". Code: `currentBranch` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:2027`); `BranchSwitcher` (`packages/app/src/components/branch-switcher.tsx`).
+- **Worktree** — Paseo-managed git worktree (`~/.paseo/worktrees/{name}`); also a `workspaceKind` value. UI: CLI + `paseo.json` keys (`worktree.setup`, `worktree.teardown`) only. Code: `ProjectCheckoutLiteGitPaseoPayload` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:2042`); CLI `paseo worktree` (`packages/cli/src/commands/worktree/index.ts:8`). Forbidden: "Checkout" as a synonym.
+- **Repository / Remote** — Internal git inputs (`remoteUrl`, `mainRepoRoot`) used to derive `projectKey`. No UI label.
+- **Session** — Per-client connection to a daemon. Internal. Code: `Session` (`packages/server/src/server/session.ts`). Don't confuse with: provider-side agent session log.
+- **Profile** — Internal name for the persisted shape of a host. Code: `HostProfile` (`packages/app/src/types/host-connection.ts:36`). Never user-facing.
+- **Provider** — Agent backend (Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode). UI: "Provider". Code: `ProviderSnapshotEntry` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:193`).
+- **Model** — A specific LLM offered by a provider. UI: "Model" / "Select model". Code: `AgentModelDefinition` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:182`).
+- **Terminal** — Workspace-scoped PTY shell streamed over the binary mux channel. UI: "Terminal". Code: `TerminalStreamFrame` (`packages/server/src/shared/terminal-stream-protocol.ts`).
+- **Schedule** — Cron-style trigger that creates remote agents. UI: CLI only (`paseo schedule`). Code: `ScheduleCreateRequest` (re-exported from `packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts`). Don't confuse with: Loop (iterative re-execution of one agent).
+- **Mode** — Provider-specific operational mode (plan, default, full-access, …). UI: icon-only. Code: `modeId` in `AgentSessionConfig` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:249`).
+- **Attachment** — GitHub PR or Issue bound to an agent prompt. UI: "Attach issue or PR". Code: `AgentAttachment` (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:736`).
+- **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:576`); (b) **git merge conflict** (no current UI string).
+
+## Open question — per-host project entry (TBD)
+
+A project aggregates workspaces across daemons. The projects screen and project-settings screen need a name for "one row in the project list per (project, daemon)". `ProjectPlacementPayload` is **per-workspace**, so it isn't this thing — but the noun "placement" could naturally extend (`ProjectDaemonPlacement`, or just "placements grouped by daemon"). The in-progress `ProjectCheckout` type (`packages/app/src/utils/projects.ts:4`) is also per-workspace today, even though the settings UI selector treats it per-daemon (matched on `serverId` alone) — so the code is currently inconsistent with itself.
+
+Candidates: (1) extend "placement" to the (project, daemon) bundle, (2) drop the wrapper type and use `{ host, project, workspaces[] }` plus descriptive UI copy ("project · host X · 2 online"). Recommendation: option (2) — no new noun, use existing terms compositionally. Do not introduce "Checkout" / `ProjectCheckout` as the canonical name.
+
+## Rename before landing (in-progress `Checkout*` references)
+
+- `packages/app/src/utils/projects.ts:4,20,22,23,46,85,104,120,124,126,146,148,155` — `ProjectCheckout`, `checkouts`, `checkoutCount`, `onlineCheckoutCount`, `buildCheckoutTarget`, `compareCheckouts`.
+- `packages/app/src/screens/projects-screen.tsx:73,74,77,90` — `checkoutLabel`, `${checkoutCount} checkout(s)`, `onlineSuffix`.
+- `packages/app/src/screens/project-settings-screen.tsx:17,41,46,55,76,81,110-152,323,443-600` — `ProjectCheckout` import, `CheckoutSelection`, `CheckoutSelector`, `CheckoutOption`, `usableCheckouts`, `onlineUsableCheckouts`, `selectedCheckout`, `selectedCheckoutKey`, "no online checkout", "no checkout with a valid server", `testID="checkout-selector"`, `testID="checkout-option-*"`, a11y `"Edit X checkout"`.
+- `packages/app/src/screens/project-settings-screen.test.tsx:185,195,196,366,369,378,389,412,415,431,432,456,464,478,481,490,501,504,521` — `checkouts`, `checkoutCount`, `onlineCheckoutCount`, "no checkouts are online", "checkout selector", "online checkout".
+- `packages/app/src/utils/projects.test.ts:107,108,111,259` — `checkoutCount`, `onlineCheckoutCount`, `checkouts`.
+
+(Out of scope for this rename: `ProjectCheckoutLite*Payload` and the git-`checkout` family in `packages/server/src/utils/checkout-*.ts`. Those refer to _git_ checkout state, not the rejected (project, daemon) sense.)
+
+## Inconsistencies (documented, not papered over)
+
+- CLI `--host <host>` description `"Daemon host target"` (`packages/cli/src/commands/utils/command-options.ts:5`) blurs daemon/host; the app keeps them distinct.
+- `WorkspaceDescriptorPayloadSchema.workspaceKind` accepts legacy `"checkout"` on the wire (`packages/server/src/shared/messages.ts:2137`) while `PersistedWorkspaceKind` does not (`packages/server/src/server/workspace-registry-model.ts:9`).
+- In-progress `ProjectCheckout` (`packages/app/src/utils/projects.ts:4`) is per-workspace, but `project-settings-screen.tsx` selects by `serverId` alone — same daemon with multiple workspaces will produce duplicate React keys in the selector.

+## 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"

+    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 `add-host-modal.tsx` and `pair-link-modal.tsx` for the pattern. 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`.
+
+## 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
+```

+
+What Paseo is, who it's for, and where it's going.
+
+## What is Paseo
+
+Paseo is a next-generation development environment built around agents. One interface to run, monitor, and interact with coding agents across desktop, mobile, terminal, and web.
+
+The development workflow is shifting from manually editing files to orchestrating agents that do the editing. Paseo is built for that workflow.
+
+## Core philosophy
+
+Freedom and flexibility. Every design decision follows from this:
+
+- **Multi-provider** — Use any coding agent harness. Pick the right model for each job, switch freely as the landscape shifts. No vendor-lock in.
+- **Cross-device** — Desktop, mobile, web, CLI. Start work at your desk, check progress from your phone, script from the terminal.
+- **Self-hosted** — The daemon runs on your machine. Your code, your keys, your environment. No inference markup, no cloud dependency.
+- **Respectful** - No telemetry, no forced cloud, no forced accounts
+- **Open source** — AGPL-3.0. Users can inspect, fork, and contribute.
+- **BYOK** — Bring your own keys. Use your subsidized plans and first-party provider pricing. Paseo adds zero cost on top.
+
+## How it works
+
+### Projects and workspaces
+
+Projects are grouped in the sidebar, detected automatically from your filesystem and tagged by git remote when available.
+
+Each project opens as a workspace. For git projects, the default workspace is the main checkout. Users can create additional workspaces, which are isolated copies (git worktrees) where agents work without affecting main.
+
+### Inside a workspace
+
+A workspace is a flexible canvas:
+
+- Launch multiple agents side by side in split panes
+- Open terminals alongside agents
+- Mix and match providers within the same workspace
+
+### The daemon
+
+Paseo is a client-server system. The daemon (Node.js) runs on your machine, manages agent processes, and streams output in real time over WebSocket. Clients connect to the daemon — locally or remotely.
+
+This architecture means:
+
+- The daemon can run on any machine: laptop, VM, remote server
+- Multiple clients can connect simultaneously
+- Agents keep running when you close the app
+
+## Target user
+
+Anyone who builds software:
+
+- Care about owning their tools and their data
+- Use multiple AI providers and want to switch freely
+- Run agents on real tasks across real projects
+- Want to work from multiple devices
+
+## What compounds over time
+
+- **Trust** — Showing up daily, shipping in public, being open source. Earned slowly, lost quickly.
+- **Community contributions** — Code, packaging, skills, agent configs. Contributors become advocates.
+- **Ecosystem** — Skills, integrations, shared configs. Community-built content that makes the platform more valuable.
+
+## Strategic bets
+
+1. **Models commoditize.** Value moves to the orchestration layer. The best model changes monthly — the workflow layer stays.
+2. **Multi-provider wins.** No single provider stays on top. Developers want the best model for each task.
+3. **The daemon as infrastructure.** Server/client architecture enables deployment anywhere.
+4. **Open source outlasts funding.** Open source communities are resilient. Contributors become advocates.
+
+## Current state (March 2026)
+
+- Desktop (Electron), mobile (iOS/Android), web, CLI
+- Providers: Claude Code (Agent SDK), Codex (app-server), OpenCode
+- Daily releases
+- Community contributions starting (packaging, bug fixes)
+- Key UX: split panes, keybinding customization, workspace model

+# 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`. 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.
+
+Existing ACP providers: `claude-acp`, `copilot`.
+
+### Direct
+
+Implement the `AgentClient` and `AgentSession` interfaces yourself. This gives full control but requires you to handle process management, streaming, permissions, and session persistence from scratch.
+
+Existing direct providers: `claude`, `codex`, `opencode`.
+
+---
+
+## 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 {
+  constructor(options: MyProviderClientOptions) {
+    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:
+
+```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: runtimeSettings?.["my-provider"],
+    }),
+};
+```
+
+### 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`:
+
+```ts
+import { MyProviderIcon } from "@/components/icons/my-provider-icon";
+
+const PROVIDER_ICONS: Record<string, typeof Bot> = {
+  claude: ClaudeIcon as unknown as typeof Bot,
+  codex: CodexIcon as unknown as typeof Bot,
+  "my-provider": MyProviderIcon as unknown as typeof Bot,
+};
+```
+
+If no icon is registered, the app 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()`:
+
+```ts
+case "my-provider":
+  return (
+    isCommandAvailable("my-agent-binary") &&
+    Boolean(process.env.MY_PROVIDER_API_KEY)
+  );
+```
+
+Add to the `allProviders` array:
+
+```ts
+export const allProviders: AgentProvider[] = [
+  "claude",
+  "claude-acp",
+  "codex",
+  "copilot",
+  "opencode",
+  "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
+
+**`AgentClient`** -- factory for sessions and model listing:
+
+```ts
+interface AgentClient {
+  readonly provider: AgentProvider;
+  readonly capabilities: AgentCapabilityFlags;
+  createSession(
+    config: AgentSessionConfig,
+    launchContext?: AgentLaunchContext,
+  ): Promise<AgentSession>;
+  resumeSession(
+    handle: AgentPersistenceHandle,
+    overrides?: Partial<AgentSessionConfig>,
+    launchContext?: AgentLaunchContext,
+  ): Promise<AgentSession>;
+  listModels(options?: ListModelsOptions): Promise<AgentModelDefinition[]>;
+  isAvailable(): Promise<boolean>;
+  // Optional:
+  listPersistedAgents?(options?: ListPersistedAgentsOptions): Promise<PersistedAgentDescriptor[]>;
+}
+```
+
+**`AgentSession`** -- a running agent conversation:
+
+```ts
+interface AgentSession {
+  readonly provider: AgentProvider;
+  readonly id: string | null;
+  readonly capabilities: AgentCapabilityFlags;
+  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<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>;
+}
+```
+
+### 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.

+# Release
+
+All workspaces share one version and release together.
+
+## 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**: you want public test builds first, but you are not ready for the website, npm, or production mobile release flows to move yet.
+
+## 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.
+- Make sure local `npm run typecheck` passes on that commit.
+- 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 (triggering desktop, APK, and EAS mobile workflows).
+
+If asked to "release paseo" without specifying major/minor, treat it as a patch release.
+
+Use the direct stable path when the current `main` changes are ready to become the public release immediately.
+
+## 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, 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 desktop assets and APKs for testing, but they do not publish npm packages and 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.
+- **Do create a changelog entry for betas.** The beta entry is temporary and gets updated in place until promotion.
+
+Use the beta path when you need to:
+
+- 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: 0% admitted when the updater manifests appear, 100% admitted 24 hours later, linear ramp in between. 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 → 24h 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 24. 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 24h 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=24`, 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 24. 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 admission latency.** Renderer polls every 30 minutes, so a stable user may take up to that long to be evaluated against the rollout window.
+
+## 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`.
+
+## 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
+- 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
+## X.Y.Z-beta.N - 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` includes stable releases and the current beta line.
+- The first beta inserts a top entry like `## 0.1.60-beta.1 - YYYY-MM-DD`.
+- The next beta updates that same top entry in place, for example from `0.1.60-beta.1` to `0.1.60-beta.2`.
+- Stable promotion updates that same entry in place, for example from `0.1.60-beta.2` to `0.1.60`.
+- Do not create duplicate entries for each beta on the same version line.
+
+## Changelog ownership
+
+- **Only Claude should write changelog entries.**
+- If you are Codex and a stable release needs a changelog entry, launch a Claude agent with Paseo to draft it, then review and commit the result.
+
+## 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`.
+- **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 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 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 any release (beta or stable), run a Codex review of the diff as a last line of defence against shipping bugs.
+
+Load the `paseo` skill and launch a **Codex 5.4** agent with a prompt like:
+
+> 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.
+>
+> Diff: `git diff <latest-release-tag>..HEAD`
+
+The agent's job is a deep sanity check, not a full code review. If it flags anything, investigate before proceeding.
+
+## Changelog scope
+
+The changelog always covers **stable-to-HEAD**:
+
+- **Beta release**: the diff and release notes cover `latest stable tag -> HEAD`. The current beta changelog entry is updated in place.
+- **Stable release**: the same changelog entry is promoted in place. It still captures the full delta from the previous stable release, not just what changed since the last beta.
+
+In other words, betas are checkpoints along the way; the changelog entry remains the single record for the final jump from one stable version to the next.
+
+## Completion checklist
+
+- [ ] Run the pre-release sanity check (see above) and address any findings
+- [ ] Ensure the intended release commit is already committed and the git worktree is clean before running any `release:*` patch/promote command
+- [ ] Ensure local `npm run typecheck` passes on that exact commit before running any `release:*` patch/promote command
+- [ ] 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 `npm run release:promote` 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.

+# Unistyles Gotchas
+
+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 Forbidden
+
+**Do not call `useUnistyles()` unless every alternative below has been ruled out and you can explain in a code comment why.** 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. It manifests as periodic, lockstep re-renders of warm subtrees (agent streams, panels, sidebars) even when nothing the user can see has changed — confirmed in profiling: `AgentStreamView` re-rendering constantly with `theme` showing as the only changed input on every render. The hook subscribes the component to **all** Unistyles runtime changes (theme, breakpoint, insets, color scheme, scale) and returns a fresh object reference each call, which also breaks every downstream `useMemo`/`memo` boundary that includes a derived theme value.
+
+Before reaching for `useUnistyles()`, work down this list of 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. Lift the read into a tiny leaf component
+
+If only one prop in a large component needs a theme value at runtime, extract a small leaf component that calls `useUnistyles()` and accept its re-renders in isolation. Never let a whole stream / panel / sidebar / virtualized list subscribe.
+
+### 5. (Last resort) `useUnistyles()`
+
+Only acceptable when both of:
+
+- (a) The value is consumed by a 3rd-party library that cannot be wrapped with `withUnistyles` (per the upstream "When to use it?" list), AND
+- (b) The component is small, leaf-level, and not on a hot render path.
+
+If you add a new `useUnistyles()` call, leave a comment on the line explaining which of (a)/(b) applies and why each higher-priority alternative was ruled out.
+
+### Hot-path forbidden list
+
+Do not introduce `useUnistyles()` in or above any of these subtrees — re-renders here are observably expensive:
+
+- `AgentStreamView` and anything it renders (message rows, tool calls, plan card, todo list, activity log, compaction marker, copy buttons)
+- `AgentPanel` body / `AgentStreamSection` / `AgentComposerSection`
+- `Composer` and `MessageInput`
+- `WorkspaceScreen` shell, tabs row, deck wrapper
+- `LeftSidebar` row items, `SidebarWorkspaceList`, `CommandCenter`

+
+Reviewers must reject PRs that add `useUnistyles()` calls in these areas without a written justification matching the last-resort criteria above.
+
+## 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.
+
+## 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.
+
+When the content container itself needs themed behavior, wrap the component with [`withUnistyles`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/with-unistyles):
+
+```tsx
+import { ScrollView } from "react-native";
+import { StyleSheet, withUnistyles } from "react-native-unistyles";
+
+const ThemedScrollView = withUnistyles(ScrollView);
+
+<ThemedScrollView style={styles.scrollView} contentContainerStyle={styles.contentContainer} />;
+```
+
+`withUnistyles` extracts dependency metadata from both `style` and `contentContainerStyle`, subscribes to the relevant theme/runtime changes, and re-renders only that wrapped component when needed. Its [auto-mapping behavior for `style` and `contentContainerStyle`](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/references/with-unistyles#auto-mapping-for-style-and-contentcontainerstyle-props) is the reason it fixes themed `ScrollView` content containers. Reach for it when wrapper-view layout would be awkward or when a third-party component needs theme-aware non-`style` props mapped through Unistyles.
+
+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 }}`. `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.
+
+Use `useUnistyles()` inside the component instead:
+
+```tsx
+const { theme } = useUnistyles();
+
+<ChevronDown size={theme.iconSize.md} color={theme.colors.foregroundMuted} />;
+```
+
+Importing `baseColors`, theme-name constants, or `type Theme` is fine when the value is intentionally static or type-only.
+
+## 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`.
+
+## 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. Deep-dive evidence is in [welcome-theme-split-research.md](/Users/moboudra/.paseo/notes/welcome-theme-split-research.md).
