feat(providers): expose agent cwd to provider processes

* fix(server): replace stale plan approvals

Synthetic plan approvals accumulated across planning turns because each proposal used a new permission ID. Dismiss the current proposal only after a follow-up prompt is accepted, and enforce one pending proposal when a newer plan arrives.

* fix(server): close plan approval submission race

Deactivate the existing proposal before starting a revision so it cannot be implemented concurrently. Restore it when submission fails, while preserving any newer approval emitted during the request.

* fix(server): deactivate plans before prompt setup

Start the plan-dismissal transaction before any asynchronous prompt setup so a stale proposal cannot be implemented from another client while the revision is preparing.

* fix(server): make prompt dismissal final

Treat prompt submission as the dismissal event instead of compensating after failures. This avoids resurrecting stale plans across ambiguous provider outcomes and manager failure cleanup.

When an `ask_user` tool call declares `allowComment: true`, Paseo presents the selection and optional comment as one question permission, answers Pi's initial `select` immediately, then auto-answers the follow-up optional `input` with the comment the user already supplied (or an empty string). Preserve placeholders and optional/skip semantics for standalone optional inputs so the app can still distinguish "skip this optional input" from "cancel the whole dialog."

+The production relay is the Elixir service in [getpaseo/paseo-relay](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo-relay), with its own deployment process. Paseo releases and pushes to this repository do not deploy it. The Cloudflare relay code and workflow in this repository are legacy and are not used in production.
 
 **Stable means stable.** If the user says "stable" or "ship stable", do not ask whether they want a beta first. They picked stable; treat it as a direct stable release. Only run the beta flow when the user explicitly says "beta".

 Local and public routes use one combined leftmost label (`script--branch--project`). This keeps the hostname compatible with normal single-level wildcard DNS and TLS. If the combined label would exceed DNS's 63-character label limit, Paseo truncates it with a deterministic hash suffix to avoid collisions.
 
+## Managing workspace scripts
+
+Configured `paseo.json` scripts can be managed without addressing their backing terminal directly:
+
+```bash
+paseo script ls [--cwd <path> | --workspace <workspace-id>]
+paseo script start <name> [--cwd <path> | --workspace <workspace-id>]
+paseo script stop <name> [--cwd <path> | --workspace <workspace-id>]
+```
+
+The commands return the same script metadata shown by the workspace: lifecycle, service port, proxy URLs, health, exit code, and supervised terminal ID. `stop` terminates the managed terminal rather than only removing the proxy route, so normal script lifecycle cleanup remains authoritative. MCP exposes matching `list_workspace_scripts`, `start_workspace_script`, and `stop_workspace_script` tools; those require an explicit workspace ID.

+Nginx's `$host` drops the port. If you terminate on a non-default port, use `$http_host` instead so the port survives — that is what "forwards the `Host` header unchanged" means here.
+
+## Forwarded headers
+
+Paseo sets these when it forwards a request to a workspace service:
+
+| Header              | Value                                                                                                                                   |
+| ------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

+| `X-Forwarded-Proto` | The request scheme (`http` on the WebSocket upgrade path)                                                                               |
+| `X-Forwarded-For`   | The immediate peer address. Replaces any existing chain, so behind your own reverse proxy this is the proxy's address, not the client's |
+| `X-Forwarded-Port`  | The port from the `Host` header when it has one, otherwise whatever your proxy already set                                              |
+
+`X-Forwarded-Port` follows the same trust rule as `X-Forwarded-Host`: the authority Paseo observed wins. When the `Host` header carries a port, that port is reported and replaces any inbound `X-Forwarded-Port`, so a client cannot forge one. When `Host` carries no port there is nothing to observe, so a value your reverse proxy set survives untouched — that is the case where nginx's `$host` drops the port and `X-Forwarded-Port` is the only source. Paseo never derives the port from the scheme. Any other `X-Forwarded-*` header your proxy sends is passed through untouched.
+
+Services that build absolute URLs should prefer `Host` or `X-Forwarded-Host`.
+
+### The forwarded authority is not authenticated
+
+Route lookup normalizes the port away before matching a service hostname, so a client can address the daemon with any port in `Host` and still reach the service. That port is what lands in `X-Forwarded-Host` and `X-Forwarded-Port`. Paseo also does not check whether an inbound `X-Forwarded-Port` came from a proxy in `trustedProxies` — when `Host` carries no port, a client-supplied value is passed through.
+
+Treat the forwarded authority as client-influenced input. A service that builds password reset links, absolute redirects, or cached URLs from it should pin its own public origin in configuration rather than deriving one from request headers. This is not specific to `X-Forwarded-Port`: the `Host` header has always carried a client-chosen port.

-Optimistic user prompts occupy stable timeline slots. Catch-up never extracts, delays, or reinserts

-where the user submitted it. Other canonical rows are applied after the already-present timeline
-instead of relocating visible user messages around newly fetched history.
+Every path that sends a message to an agent — composer send, dictation accept-and-send, queued
+send-now, and the automatic queue drain in `HostRuntime` — goes through
+`dispatchComposerAgentMessage` with a submission writer. There is no second transport for the same
+product action: calling `client.sendAgentMessage` directly skips the submitted row and the pending
+footer, and permanently drops attachments because the daemon does not echo them back.
+
+A submitted prompt is one `UserMessageItem` row. That row is the authoritative local presentation:
+its stable identity, text, timestamp, images, and attachments do not change when the provider
+acknowledges it. Submission lifecycle is a separate record keyed by agent, not another row shape or
+a property inferred from message identity. The transaction registry holds every unresolved send and
+records RPC acceptance and provider acknowledgement independently. Provider acknowledgement exists
+solely so a later transport error cannot roll back a prompt already observed canonically.
+
+The daemon's accepted response already waits for the correlated run start, but its response and the
+directory update reach client state separately. An accepted transaction remains active until the
+directory observes that run or canonical ingestion acknowledges the prompt, bridging those ordered
+authorities without inspecting timeline snapshots. Either signal clears only an RPC-accepted
+transaction, regardless of which arrived first; it cannot settle a fresh send.

+identity to the existing row, and keeps the local presentation in its original timeline slot.
+Content matching is limited to the dated compatibility path for daemon timelines created before
+that field existed. Canonical ingestion may match only an explicit unreconciled local candidate;
+the draft-create handoff is the one boundary that also permits the legacy canonical twin to have
+arrived first. Generic reducers and consumers do not reimplement message identity matching.
+
+Ordinary bootstrap, same-epoch reset, and catch-up replacement preserve unmatched locally submitted
+rows because a provider may never echo them. A known epoch change or rewind replaces history and
+drops acknowledged local rows omitted by the new canonical epoch; every transaction not yet
+acknowledged by the provider, and no other local row, crosses that destructive boundary.
+
+Canonical replacement owns both timeline lanes. A matching local row keeps its presentation ID and
+payload while taking the canonical row's ordered position. If a live assistant head is the
+canonical assistant prefix, it stays in the head lane. No row may be returned in both lanes.
