fix(app): prevent concurrent draft agent creation

+### Writing docs
+
+- **Integrate, don't append.** Find the doc that owns the subject and rewrite the part that is now wrong. The standard failure is finishing a task and adding a paragraph to the bottom of the closest-looking doc; ten tasks later the doc is a pile of paragraphs in discovery order. `docs/custom-providers.md` is what that looks like.
+- **Don't document logic.** Prose that restates code drifts from the code and loses. Write down what the code can't tell you: why something is shaped the way it is, the gotcha that cost an afternoon, conventions nothing enforces, constraints that span packages or versions. If a reader could get it in two minutes by opening the file, cut it.
+- **One fact, one doc.** Every other mention is a link. If you are about to write the same paragraph in two docs, one of them is a link.
+- **Respect the layers.** `CONTRIBUTING.md` and this file name things and link out. Activity docs like `docs/qa.md` and `docs/testing.md` set the bar for a kind of work. Subject docs like `docs/unistyles.md` own one thing completely. A layer never re-explains the one below it.
+- **One subject per doc.** If the subject doesn't fit in a sentence, split the doc. A section per provider, vendor, or platform is a table plus one worked example.
+- **Delete.** Obsolete sections go. Prefer a `packages/app/src/thing.ts:120` reference over a pasted block.
+- **New doc?** Add a row to the table above and link it from the docs that should send readers there.
+- Code-level facts belong in comments next to the code, not here.
+
+### Doc voice
+
+Plain and short. Second person. State the rule, then the reason when the reason isn't obvious. Match the doc you're editing.
+
+Do not:
+
+- Write a sentence to land a point. "It's not X, it's Y", "That's not a Z, that's a W", and every other setup-and-punchline shape.
+- Add a clause that only asserts importance: "and that matters", "which is what keeps it working", "this is critical".
+- Use "honest", "robust", "seamless", "powerful", "simply", "just", "delightful".
+- Restate something you already said, in different words, for emphasis.
+- Hedge with "generally", "typically", or "you may want to" when the answer is "do this".
+- Clear your throat: "It's worth noting that", "In order to", "This section covers".

 - **Always use npm scripts for linting and formatting.** Do not run tools directly with `npx eslint`, `npx oxfmt`, `npx oxlint`, or package-local binaries. For targeted checks, pass file paths through the npm script:
  - `npm run lint -- packages/app/src/components/message.tsx`
  - `npm run format:files -- CLAUDE.md packages/app/src/components/message.tsx`
- **The protocol stays backward-compatible. Features don't have to.** Two separate contracts:
-  - **Protocol contract (always):** schema changes must not break parsing in either direction. An old client must still parse messages from a new daemon; a new daemon must still parse messages from an old client.
-    - New fields: `.optional()` with a sensible default.
-    - Never flip optional → required, remove fields, or narrow types (`string` → `enum`, `nullable` → non-null).
-    - Removed fields stay accepted (we stop sending them, not stop reading them).
-    - Test with: "does a 6-month-old client still parse this?" and "does a 6-month-old daemon still send something this client accepts?"
-    - Wire schemas are pure structural declarations. Do not add `.transform()`, `.catch()`, or `.preprocess()` to WebSocket message schemas; put normalization in an explicit post-validation pass.
-    - Plain `z.union()` is forbidden when every branch has a shared literal tag. Use `z.discriminatedUnion()` unless generated-code regression tests prove that specific shape is miscompiled.
-    - `.default()` is acceptable on primitive leaves only. Never put defaults on item schemas for large arrays or big inbound containers.
-  - **Feature contract (per-feature):** a new feature may require a new daemon capability. The client detects whether the capability is present and either runs the feature or shows "Update the host to use this." That's it.
-    - **No fallback paths.** Don't write a degraded version of a new feature that runs on old daemons. Don't fan out across legacy RPCs to simulate a missing capability. The user upgrades or doesn't get the feature.
-    - **No defensive branches scattered through the feature.** Capability detection happens in one place; downstream code reads a clean shape.
-    - **Capability flags live in `server_info.features.*`** with a single `// COMPAT(featureName): added in v0.1.X, drop the gate when floor >= v0.1.X` comment marking the cleanup site.
-    - Existing functionality keeps working across versions — that's the protocol contract doing its job. New-feature degradation is not the goal.
-    - **New RPCs use dotted namespaces with direction suffixes.** Follow [docs/rpc-namespacing.md](docs/rpc-namespacing.md): `domain.provider.operation.request` pairs with `domain.provider.operation.response`. Existing flat RPC names will migrate over time; don't add new ones.
-
- **All back-compat shims are tagged and dated for cleanup.** Every shim that exists for old-client/old-daemon support carries a `COMPAT(name)` comment with the version it was added in and a target removal date (typically 6 months out). One grep — `rg "COMPAT\("` — should produce the full list of cleanup work. Don't bury back-compat in untagged `??`-fallbacks or optional-chain tunnels — that's how it stops being deletable.
+- **The protocol stays backward-compatible. Features don't have to.** Read [docs/protocol-compatibility.md](docs/protocol-compatibility.md) before touching `packages/protocol`. The short version:
+  - **Protocol contract (always):** an old client parses messages from a new daemon, and a new daemon parses messages from an old client. New fields are optional; never narrow, never remove, never require. Wire schemas stay pure — no `.transform()`, `.catch()`, or `.preprocess()`.
+  - **Feature contract (per-feature):** gate the capability once on `server_info.features.*`, then run the feature or tell the user to update the host. No fallback paths, no defensive branches.
+  - **Every shim is tagged.** `// COMPAT(name): added in vX, remove after <date>` at the site that has to be deleted. `rg "COMPAT\("` is the cleanup backlog; untagged back-compat is permanent by accident.
+  - **New RPCs use dotted namespaces with direction suffixes.** Follow [docs/rpc-namespacing.md](docs/rpc-namespacing.md): `domain.provider.operation.request` pairs with `domain.provider.operation.response`. Existing flat RPC names will migrate over time; don't add new ones.

 # Contributing to Paseo

-Paseo is an opinionated product maintained by one person right now.
+Thank you for taking the time to contribute to Paseo.

-The product covers a lot of surface: mobile, desktop, web, the daemon, the relay, and both self-hosted and hosted setups.
+## Philosophy

-Contributing takes a lot of context that is very hard to transfer. That's why product, design, architecture, and workflow decisions are currently all made by the maintainer.
+Paseo is an opinionated product, built on freedom and flexibility: any agent provider, any device, running on your own machine. It is meant to be composable, so you can build the workflow you want. Read more about the product vision [here](docs/product.md).

-## Becoming a maintainer
+Given Paseo's scope, contributing to it takes a lot of context that is very hard to transfer. That's why product, design, architecture, and workflow decisions are currently all made by the maintainer.

-There's no formal process to become a maintainer, if you consistently contribute and help out, you'll become one.
+I pick what to build based on whether it fits the product, how many workflows it improves, whether it keeps things composable, whether we can hold the quality bar, and whether I want to build it.

-Here's the progression:
+## Report bugs in GitHub issues or Discord

-1. Get involved in the community: answer questions in Discord and on GitHub
-2. Triage bugs: replicate and help fix them
-3. Work on maintainer-approved features
+Open an [issue](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/issues) or post in [Discord](https://discord.gg/jz8T2uahpH).

-The reason for this progression is so that you can gain all the context you need to take on more responsibility, so that I can see if you have what it takes to be a maintainer.
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+> Feature requests opened as issues will get closed automatically

-Learning on the job is fine, I do not care how many years of experience you have, what I care about is that you get the vision and want to contribute.
+If you used an agent to investigate, paste the raw evidence and repro steps it collected, not its diagnosis.
+
+You may submit a PR to fix a bug, please read the PR guidelines below.
+
+## Product discussions go in GitHub Discussions or Discord
+
+There's no feature request backlog. Open a product discussion in [Discussions](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/discussions) or `#product` in [Discord](https://discord.gg/jz8T2uahpH), and frame it as a workflow:
+
+- What are you trying to do?
+- How do you do it today?
+- Where does Paseo get in the way?
+- What would the flow look like if it worked for you?
+
+"Can you build X" is not useful because it doesn't tell me about your problem.
+
+A discussion also lets other people add their own version of the same problem, and that's what I read when I decide what to build.
+
+Due to the volume and my limited bandwidth, I may not participate in all the discussions, if something gains interest it will make it's way to me.

 ## Pull requests

-✅ Will be accepted
+Anyone can open a pull request, but there are no guarantees of it getting merged, only submit one if you're okay with it being closed.

- Keep it to one focused change
- Link to an issue
- Explain the problem you're solving
- Include repro steps if it's a bug
- Include QA/testing evidence
- UI changes need screenshots or video for every affected platform: iOS, Android, desktop, and web
- If you only tested one platform, say that clearly
+Open it as a draft if the work isn't ready for review, if you want to run the checks against it, or if you want feedback on the direction before you finish it. Mark it ready when you want it looked at.
+
+Here is the criteria I use to decide:
+
+✅ Likely to be accepted
+
+- Fits the product vision
+- One focused change
+- Links the bug it fixes, or the discussion behind it if there is one
+- Addresses bot reviews
+- Explains the problem you're solving
+- QA evidence
+- Automated tests
+- Screenshots or video for UI changes, on every affected platform
+- Says which platforms you tested and which you didn't
+- Maintainer edits enabled

 ⛔️ Will be rejected

- Bundle unrelated changes
- Fail basic checks like typecheck, formatting or linting
- Add a feature or design change that wasn't discussed first
- Submit no evidence of testing
- Skip the linked issue
+- Bundles unrelated changes
+- Fails checks
+- Ignores bot reviews
+- Takes a feature or the design in a direction I don't want
+- No QA evidence
+- No tests
 - Clearly fully AI-generated PR

-## Requesting features
+### What to expect

-If you need a feature implemented, create a Github issue or a thread in Discord.
+- PRs that were explicitly approved in a discussion are preferred.
+- Unsolicited PR can be closed without a detailed review.
+- Your PR can be narrowed, refactored, or redesigned.
+- Your PR might be accepted but not merged immediately.
+- You will be attributed for your work in the changelog, even if I redesign your PR

-Explain the problem you want to solve: your use case, where Paseo falls short today, and the flow you expect.
+## QA evidence

-## AI assistance
+QA is the main bottleneck of Paseo's product development, and it's not just whether the feature works, it's also whether it meets the quality bar.

-Using AI to help write code is fine, but you must:
+Pull requests without evidence will be closed.

- Ensure your agents read the docs
- Understand the code you submit
- Review and test the code yourself
+What's accepted:
+
+- The shell commands you ran, pasted with their output
+- The tests you added and their results
+- Before and after screenshots
+- A video of the whole interaction
+- Logs, requests, responses
+
+Bugs and features both need automated tests, and the tests have to exercise the real thing. UI changes need a video, or a screenshot if it's static.
+
+The [QA guide](docs/qa.md) covers what to check for each of these and the tooling to do it.
+
+## I want to become a maintainer
+
+There's no formal process to become a maintainer, just consistently get involved with the project by answering questions, testing, reproducing bugs, discussing workflows with the community and offer to implement features when we reach an agreement.
+
+## FAQ
+
+### I'm blocked, where do I go?
+
+Join [Discord](https://discord.gg/jz8T2uahpH), ask your questions there.
+
+### Do you prefer Github or Discord?
+
+I am more active on Discord for general questions.
+
+I prefer Github for bugs because the template helps collect information more efficiently.
+
+### Why was my feature request closed?
+
+Issues are only for bugs. Open it as a product discussion instead, framed as a workflow.
+
+### Why didn't my PR get a detailed review?
+
+Writing a review is very time consuming and Paseo receives a lot of PRs, I cannot give detailed explanations at volume.
+
+### How long until someone looks at my pull request?
+
+It depends on what else is going on. QA takes longer than reading the diff. You are welcome to join Discord to ask.
+
+### Why do you want tests and a video for a small change?
+
+Because it's faster and safer than me checking out and running every PR myself to test it manually.
+
+QA evidence help me take your PR seriously for a deeper review and maintainer QA.
+
+### I only have one platform, can I still contribute?
+
+Yes. Test what you have, and say what you didn't test.
+
+### Can I use an agent to write my contribution?
+
+Yes, as long as you understand what you're submitting and you tested it yourself.
+
+### Is there a roadmap I can read?
+
+[docs/product.md](docs/product.md) covers the direction. There's no public list of what I'm building next.

+
+## 시작하기
+
+Paseo는 코딩 에이전트를 관리하는 로컬 서버인 데몬을 실행합니다. 데스크톱 앱, 모바일 앱, 웹 앱, CLI 같은 클라이언트가 이 데몬에 연결합니다.
+
+### 준비 사항
+
+아래 에이전트 CLI 중 하나 이상을 설치하고 인증 정보를 설정해야 합니다.
+
+- [Claude Code](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code)
+- [Codex](https://github.com/openai/codex)
+- [GitHub Copilot](https://github.com/features/copilot/cli/)
+- [OpenCode](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode)
+- [Pi](https://pi.dev)
+
+### 데스크톱 앱(권장)
+
+[paseo.sh/download](https://paseo.sh/download) 또는 [GitHub 릴리스 페이지](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/releases)에서 다운로드하세요. 앱을 열면 데몬이 자동으로 시작됩니다. 별도로 설치할 것은 없습니다.
+
+휴대폰에서 연결하려면 **설정 → 호스트 → 기기 페어링**을 여세요.
+
+### CLI / 헤드리스 환경
+
+CLI를 설치하고 Paseo를 시작하세요.
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @getpaseo/cli
+paseo
+```
+
+Paseo가 로컬에서 시작된 뒤 기기 페어링을 위한 종단 간 암호화 릴레이를 켤지 묻습니다. 거절하면 TCP, Tailscale 또는 다른 VPN으로 직접 연결할 수 있습니다. 이 방식은 서버나 원격 머신에서 유용합니다.
+
+자세한 설치와 설정은 아래 문서를 참고하세요.

+Docker에서 Paseo 데몬과 셀프 호스팅 웹 UI를 실행하세요:
+
+```bash
+docker run -d --name paseo \
+  -p 6767:6767 \
+  -e PASEO_PASSWORD=change-me \
+  -v "$PWD/paseo-home:/home/paseo" \
+  -v "$PWD:/workspace" \
+  ghcr.io/getpaseo/paseo:latest

Additional hostnames can be configured via `hostnames` in `config.json` or the `PASEO_HOSTNAMES` env var (comma-separated; entries beginning with `.` match a domain and its subdomains; the value `true` disables the allowlist entirely). Requests with unrecognized hosts are rejected with `403 Host not allowed`.

+## HTML file preview
+
+Previewing an `.html` file in the file pane renders it as a page, so markup an agent wrote — or markup that arrived with a repo you cloned — executes when you open it. The preview is built to contain that, not to trust it.
+
+The document loads with an opaque origin and a policy that permits inline script and style and refuses everything else: no remote script, font, image, or media; no `fetch`, XHR, WebSocket, or beacon; no form posts; no plugins; no nested frames. It has no access to Paseo's DOM, and storage and cookie APIs throw inside it rather than returning anything. It cannot navigate the top window, and it cannot open popups. It cannot read any file but itself.
+
+One gap remains on web and desktop: a sandboxed document may navigate _itself_, and no CSP directive in current browsers prevents that. `navigate-to` was dropped from CSP Level 3 and is not enforced, and `<meta http-equiv="refresh">` needs no script at all. A hostile page can therefore reach a server by navigating away, carrying data available inside the preview, such as its own contents, browser and device properties, user input inside the page, and your IP address. It cannot read Paseo, another file, storage, or cookies.
+
+Native builds narrow this gap rather than closing it outright. The WebView refuses every navigation after the initial document, but that decision is made in the app's JavaScript, and on Android the WebView falls back to allowing a navigation when the decision doesn't come back in time. Treat it as a strong mitigation, not a guarantee: if the JS thread is stalled at the moment a page navigates, the same leak is possible there too.
+
+If you don't trust a page, read it in `Source`, which executes nothing. Source is available as an editable view on supported web hosts and a read-only view everywhere else.

 Users can also detach an existing subagent from the subagents track. Detach is deliberately a manual lifecycle gesture, not an agent-facing MCP tool. It removes the `paseo.parent-agent-id` label only: it does not stop, archive, move, or restart the agent. The agent keeps its current `cwd` and `workspaceId`, leaves the former parent's track, and behaves like a root agent for tab close, workspace activity, and future parent archive.

 `notifyOnFinish` defaults to `true` for agent-scoped creation and background prompt follow-ups because most delegated work needs to report back to the creating agent. Set it to `false` only for truly fire-and-forget agents or prompts.
+Permission requests are notification checkpoints, not the end of that subscription. The caller is notified again after a permission response when the child finishes, errors, or requests another permission.

@@ -107,6 +119,8 @@ Agent lifecycle status stays literal: a parent agent is `idle` when its own turn

 Workspace status is an aggregate activity signal computed **per `workspaceId`**. Ownership is never derived from `cwd` — many workspaces may share one directory, and same-`cwd` siblings do not clump under one status. Root agents and cross-workspace subagents contribute their normal state bucket to their own workspace. Same-workspace descendants contribute `running` to the nearest ancestor in that workspace; their non-running attention, permission, and error states stay in the parent's subagents track. This makes a cross-workspace subagent behave like a detached agent for workspace visibility and status without removing its parent relationship.

+### Claude provider subagents: the task protocol
+
+Claude Code announces subagent lifecycle on the SDK stream (`task_started` / `task_updated` / `task_notification` / `task_progress`), and Paseo reads those announcements rather than reconstructing them from sidechain frames. The live source (`subagents/live-source.ts`) and the replay source (`subagents/replay-source.ts`) both translate into one observation vocabulary (`subagents/observation.ts`), so a fact is derived once for both paths instead of once per path. Gotchas that are not obvious from the SDK types:
+
+- **Not every announced task belongs in the track.** Task subagents announce as `local_agent` and workflows as `local_workflow`; a backgrounded shell announces as `local_bash` with the same `tool_use_id` shape, and ambient housekeeping sets `skip_transcript`. The Claude provider normalizes a workflow to a generic provider-subagent descriptor titled `Workflow`, using Claude's summary as its description and timeline opener. Shared storage, protocol, and UI do not distinguish it from another provider subagent.
+- **A task that was never declared gets no descriptor, by any route.** Filtered tasks still emit `task_notification`s carrying a `tool_use_id`, and still emit frames carrying `parent_tool_use_id`. Attributing either produces a descriptor with no identity and a defaulted `running` status — a nameless row that never finishes. Status, presentation updates, and sidechain frames all route through the declaration table.
+- **Task ids are session-scoped, not turn-scoped.** Cancelling a turn must not clear the routing table: a backgrounded child settles after the interrupt and needs its descriptor to still exist. Cancellation instead terminalizes the declared children that were running in the foreground, and a later `task_notification` is free to correct that guess. Backgrounded children are identified by `task_updated.patch.is_backgrounded`.
+- **Effort is only reachable through hooks.** It appears nowhere on the message stream at any depth, and the level Paseo requests is not necessarily the level that runs — a model that does not support it is silently downgraded. A hook firing inside a subagent reports the active post-downgrade level next to its `agent_id`, which is the same id `task_started` calls `task_id`.
+- **Backgrounded subagents emit no frames carrying `parent_tool_use_id` at all.** Everything keyed off that field sees nothing for one; they are visible only because the task protocol announces them.
+- **On replay, `<session>/subagents/` holds every descendant, not just this session's children.** `agent-<id>.meta.json` carries `spawnDepth`: `1` is a direct child, `2+` was spawned by another subagent and its `toolUseId` names a Task call made inside its parent's session, which nothing in this transcript can resolve. Replaying those adds rows the live stream never showed, each with no Task card and no recoverable outcome, so they render as running forever. One recorded session showed 10 subagents live and would have replayed 22.
+- **Replay `totalTokens` is a context-size reading, not cumulative spend.** Claude Code finalizes a subagent by summing the _last_ assistant message's usage block and shipping that as `usage.total_tokens`. Summing per-entry usage instead multiplies the cached prefix by the turn count and reports a number several times larger than the live path.
+
 Archived Paseo subagents disappear from the track, by design. To remove one from the track without closing its tab, use the **archive button** on the row — it opens a confirm dialog and archives the subagent on confirm. Provider-owned rows have no individual Paseo lifecycle controls.

 The track header's **Archive finished** action hides finished provider-owned rows in the current app session. Their native sessions and timelines are untouched, and managed Paseo subagents are not archived by this bulk action. If a hidden provider child starts running again, the app brings it back to the track.

 All fields are optional with sensible defaults.

+### Profile lists
+
+`terminalProfiles` and `agentProfiles` are both whole-list fields: a config patch replaces the
+array, never merges entries, so a client sends the complete next list on every add, edit, reorder
+and remove. List order is the display order.
+
+Absent and empty mean different things for terminal profiles — omitting the key falls back to
+`DEFAULT_TERMINAL_PROFILES`, while `[]` means the user removed them all. Agent profiles have no
+defaults, so both mean none.
+
+`PersistedConfigSchema` parses strictly, so a daemon that predates a field drops it on write
+rather than storing something it cannot describe. That is why the client gates the agent profiles
+UI on `server_info.features.agentProfiles` instead of letting a save appear to succeed against an
+older daemon.
+
+### Git process limits
+
+Git process limits are global to one daemon. The start-rate limit defaults to `64` processes per
+second, and the concurrency limit defaults to `8`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "daemon": {
+    "git": {
+      "maxProcessesPerSecond": 64,
+      "maxProcessConcurrency": 8
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+`maxProcessesPerSecond` limits Git process starts in any one-second interval. The allowance can
+start as a burst; it does not wait for earlier processes to exit. `maxProcessConcurrency` limits
+the number of Git processes that have started but not exited. Every Git command uses both limits,
+including initial workspace reads, filesystem-triggered refreshes, background checks, and explicit
+requests.
+
+Environment variables override `config.json`:
+
+| Environment variable                 | Setting                  |
+| ------------------------------------ | ------------------------ |
+| `PASEO_GIT_MAX_PROCESSES_PER_SECOND` | `maxProcessesPerSecond`  |
+| `PASEO_GIT_MAX_PROCESS_CONCURRENCY`  | `maxProcessConcurrency`  |
+| `PASEO_GIT_CONCURRENCY`              | Legacy concurrency alias |
+
+`PASEO_GIT_MAX_PROCESS_CONCURRENCY` wins when it and the legacy alias are both set. Restart the
+daemon after changing the file or environment. Run `paseo daemon restart` for a standalone daemon.
+For a desktop-managed daemon, fully quit and reopen Paseo Desktop.
+
 `agents.metadataGeneration.providers` controls the preferred structured-generation fallback order for daemon-side metadata tasks such as commit messages, PR text, branch names, and generated agent titles. Entries are tried first in the configured order, then Paseo falls through to dynamically discovered defaults and finally the current selection when available.

 Local speech model ids are intentionally narrow: STT uses `parakeet-tdt-0.6b-v2-int8`, TTS uses `kokoro-en-v0_19`, and turn detection uses the bundled Silero VAD model.

+## 13. 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.
+There is exactly one token per status signal — `statusSuccess`, `statusDanger`, `statusWarning`, `statusMerged` — and every status surface uses it: PR state icons, CI check icons and pies, diff stats, file-change icons, status pills, usage bars. A surface does not get a quieter or louder variant because of where it sits. If a dense list feels loud, that is a density or weight problem; fix the density, not the color. The tokens are generated, not hand-picked — see the rule in `packages/app/src/styles/theme.ts` and regenerate rather than nudging one value. The level is set by the densest consumer, the sidebar workspace list.

-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.
+Status **dots** are the one exception, and they are a family of their own — `statusDotSuccess`, `statusDotDanger`, `statusDotWarning`, `statusDotRunning`, read only by `getStatusDotColor` (`packages/app/src/utils/status-dot-color.ts`). Same hues and the same generation rule, but their own band: 90% of gamut chroma against the status family's 55–60%. A dot is a few points of solid color with no shape to read and no label attached, and the running one pulses, so at the status band's chroma the dots read dimmer than the metadata beside them — backwards, since the dot is the row's state. Lightness is set by hue separation rather than by distance from the surface: at 6pt four dark hues on a light surface all read as one dark blob no matter how much contrast they have. So the light band runs as bright as the contrast floor allows at L=0.62, the last step where all four clear 3:1 against the sidebar's `surface2`; the dark band sits at L=0.72, where danger turns pink above. All four move together; regenerate the set, never one hue.
+
+Status pills are the status token as foreground on a 10%-alpha tint of the same token (`${token}1a`), with a 20% border (`${token}33`). The `<StatusBadge>` primitive (`packages/app/src/components/ui/status-badge.tsx`) is canonical; a pill never reaches into `palette`.
+
+Status dots — the small filled circles next to a host or agent name — are `borderRadius.full` filled with the status token. Which token a given agent state maps to is owned by `getStatusDotColor` (`packages/app/src/utils/status-dot-color.ts`); a row, a group header, and a project icon all call it rather than restating the mapping. They sit in the trailing slot of a sidebar row or as a leading marker on a status pill.
+
+Identity badges — the project icon, the sidebar host badge, and the PR-panel participant avatar — do not use the theme palette. They draw from the fixed ten-color identity table in `packages/app/src/styles/identity-colors.ts`, whose hexes are held to one contrast band so a color identifies rather than ranks. Project icons and PR avatars use it as a fill with a white letter — that is `identityColor`, one theme-independent hex per identity. Host badges use it as a _foreground_ on both the glyph and the label, which is a different contrast problem that the fill table cannot solve: no single hex clears 4.5:1 against both a near-white and a dark sidebar. Foregrounds therefore come from `identityForeground(name, colorScheme)`, one set per scheme, hue unchanged. That set is generated on the **status family's** lightness and chroma fraction, because a meta row puts a host badge beside a CI check and a diff stat, and two families at different lightness make the brighter one shout. Change the status band and this one changes with it. A host with no color assigned falls back to `foregroundMuted`. The table is theme-independent by design; do not fork it per theme, and do not add hexes to it without recomputing the band.

 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>`.

+## Worktree starting refs
+
+A new worktree starts from the current branch's upstream, or the local branch when it has no
+upstream. This keeps unpushed local commits out of new workspaces by default. The picker collapses
+identical refs; divergent local or non-origin refs remain explicit, qualified choices.
+
+The daemon sends the exact upstream ref because the remote and branch names cannot be inferred.
+Worktrees retain that ref for comparisons and updates from base while exposing its branch name to
+the UI. Merging into base requires a mutable local target: `origin/main` maps to local `main`, while
+another remote fails closed until the worktree records an explicit local target. Older daemons omit
+the optional field and retain the previous local-first behavior; older worktree metadata without the
+exact ref also resolves through its stored branch name.

-Icons are inlined as SVG strings in:
-
-```
-packages/app/src/components/material-file-icons.ts
-```
-
-This file is auto-generated. Do not edit it by hand.
-
 ## How it works

- `SVG_ICONS` maps icon names (e.g. `"typescript"`) to raw SVG strings
- `EXTENSION_TO_ICON` maps file extensions (e.g. `"ts"`) to icon names
- `getFileIconSvg(fileName)` returns the SVG string for a given filename, falling back to a generic file icon
- `packages/app/src/components/file-explorer-pane.tsx` is the only consumer; it renders the SVG with `SvgXml` from `react-native-svg`
+Two files:
+
+- `packages/app/src/components/material-file-icons.ts` — the vendor table. `SVG_ICONS` maps icon
+  names to SVG strings copied verbatim from the theme, `EXTENSION_TO_ICON` maps extensions to icon
+  names, and `getRawFileIconSvg(fileName)` looks one up with a generic fallback. Keep it a faithful
+  copy so re-copying an icon stays a mechanical edit.
+- `packages/app/src/components/file-icon-svg.ts` — `getFileIconSvg(fileName)`, the only thing
+  anyone should import. It desaturates the vendor colours and caches the result.
+
+Render with `<MaterialFileIcon fileName size />` rather than reaching for `SvgXml` yourself.
+
+## Why the colours are toned down
+
+material-icon-theme picks its palette for VS Code's file tree, where the icon is the only colour on
+the row. Ours share rows with status dots, diff stats, and check badges, and a column of them at
+full chroma is the loudest thing in the panel.
+
+Every hex in the SVG is pulled toward neutral at the same perceived lightness (`desaturateHexColor`
+in `packages/app/src/utils/color.ts`, OKLab — scaling HSL saturation instead would darken the
+yellows and barely touch the blues). Hue survives, which is the only part of an icon's colour that
+carries meaning at 16pt.
+
+`ICON_CHROMA` in `file-icon-svg.ts` is the single knob. Move it; do not add per-icon overrides, or
+we are back to hand-picking 53 colours.

+# File observation
+
+Use `packages/server/src/server/file-observer` for recursive filesystem observation. Create one observer service at the owning service boundary, subscribe roots through it, and close it during owner shutdown. Keep platform watchers, directory discovery, exclusion reconciliation, event batching, failure cleanup, diagnostics, and teardown inside the module. A consumer supplies a root and excluded subtrees; it must not branch on the platform or manage child watchers.
+
+Do not replace the Linux implementation with `fs.watch({ recursive: true })`. Node 22 implements Linux recursion in JavaScript by walking the tree and watching every file and directory. Paseo's directory-only Linux watcher already exhausted resources before ignored-tree pruning and a watcher cap were added in [#794](https://github.com/getpaseo/paseo/pull/794).
+
+Closing an observation must remain safe after its root is renamed or removed. Workspace archive removes owned worktrees while releasing observation references, so teardown cannot assume the watched path still exists.
+
+`unsubscribe()` is an awaited barrier. Once it resolves, no scan, reconciliation, queued event, native handle, or callback may remain. `updateIgnore()` is the equivalent barrier for excluded paths: events queued below a newly excluded root cannot be delivered after it resolves. Treat path disappearance while scanning, attaching, or receiving a watcher error as rename/archive churn. Surface permission and resource errors so WorkspaceGit can enter bounded polling.
+
+Linux topology repair is trailing-debounced and scoped to the renamed path. A file rename needs one classification stat; a new or moved directory scans only its subtree. Full-tree scans are reserved for startup and ignore-set replacement. The initial Linux scan conservatively emits existing files discovered before their directory watcher was installed; WorkspaceGit batches these into one refresh. Benchmark this startup cost with pre-populated trees.
+
+Windows and macOS use one native recursive watcher plus an ignored-pruned, directory-indexed inventory. Native events deliver immediately. Named events trigger serialized shallow scans of their parent directories; known directory events also reconcile that subtree. This recovers concrete create and delete paths omitted by coalescing without walking the whole root for each edit. Startup and exclusion changes use an awaited full inventory barrier. Activity arms a full safety audit 30 seconds after it settles, with a 30-second minimum interval and a five-minute starvation bound; pathless native events also trigger an immediate shallow root scan. Observation fails into polling rather than retaining more than 250,000 file and directory entries per root.
+
+Read aggregate health from the owning observer service. Runtime metrics include active observations, native handles, tracked native files, pending events and immediate reconciliation work, scoped and full reconciliation activity and latency, and failure counts. Delayed safety audits do not count as pending work. Closing the service releases every subscription and clears its diagnostics. Do not add path lists, watcher handles, or platform-specific controls to this interface.
+
+Git owns Git-ignore evaluation. The observer accepts absolute excluded roots and applies updates without replacing the observation or exposing its watcher topology. This keeps tracked files inside otherwise ignored directories observable and keeps Git policy out of the filesystem module.
+
+The real-filesystem contracts and daemon auto-archive lifecycle run in the normal server test suite. Use the scripts only for manual performance and soak work: `npm run measure:file-observer --workspace=@getpaseo/server` measures burst and sustained-create behavior, and `npm run repro:file-observer-teardown --workspace=@getpaseo/server` runs the teardown soak.

The only type a sidebar workspace row reports, because a running plain script says nothing about whether the workspace is up; the row names the service and turns danger when its health fails, and where several run the failing one takes the row's single slot.

On the **in-flight** turn it sits beside the progress loader and elapsed timer, and omits the boundary entirely — `selectForkContextRows` projects the whole timeline when no boundary is given, so the fork captures everything **up to now**, including the response still streaming.

+
+`compactMode` defaults to `"popover"`, so adopting the sheet is per-menu. That is deliberate:
+flipping every menu in the app to sheets at once is not a change anyone can review. Opt a menu in
+when you have actually looked at it on a phone.
+
+`ContextMenu` is the exception: it defaults to `compactMode="sheet"` and enables native long press.
+Disable mobile triggering explicitly on draggable rows, where long press belongs to drag instead.
+
+## Selecting an item on iOS
+
+An item that closes the menu runs its action after a fixed grace period on iOS, not immediately:
+a native presenter launched while UIKit is still tearing down the surface can hang. Both surfaces
+unmount the moment the menu closes, so the wait is a timer rather than the surface's own dismissal
+callback — a callback fired from inside a subtree that is being removed is racing its own removal,
+and it loses. Selections used to be dropped entirely for exactly that reason.
+
+The consequence for callers: an `onSelect` on iOS runs a beat after the press. Don't add a second
+delay on top of it, and don't read state that the same press mutated.
+
+## Pages
+
+A submenu is a page, declared as data on the surface and reached by a `MenuSubTrigger` whose `id`
+matches:
+
+```tsx
+<MenuSurface pages={pages} sheetTitle="Display">
+  <MenuSubTrigger id="grouping" value="Project">
+    Grouping
+  </MenuSubTrigger>
+</MenuSurface>
+```
+
+Pages are data rather than nested children because the popover renders them as _siblings_ of the
+root surface — a flyout nested inside the root's box would be clipped by its `overflow: hidden`.
+Declaring them separately is what lets one model drive both presentations.
+
+`menu-navigation.ts` holds that model, and it is pure: the open flyout chain and the mobile push
+stack are the same path, so the popover renders every entry in it and the sheet renders only the
+last. Nothing else differs between the two.
+
+Opening a submenu truncates the path to the depth of the trigger that opened it. Without that,
+sliding the pointer across a row of triggers would stack up every flyout it passed instead of
+swapping between them.
+
+## Hover intent
+
+A flyout **overlaps its parent by 5pt** rather than sitting beside it. With a gap there is a strip
+of backdrop between the two that belongs to neither surface, and every pixel of it is a chance to
+dismiss the menu you are reaching for. Overlapping deletes the strip; don't reintroduce the gap
+and try to cover it with a longer timer.
+
+On top of that, a flyout opens after the pointer rests ~90ms, closes ~260ms after it leaves, and
+cancels its own pending close while the pointer is inside it. The grace still matters because the
+pointer crosses sibling rows on the way down into the flyout.
+
+Hover lives on a plain `View`, never on a `Pressable` — see [hover.md](hover.md), which owns that
+rule. Hover only fires on web, which is exactly where flyouts exist; everywhere else the page
+opens on press.
+
+## Item states
+
+`selected` and `active` are different questions and must not be merged.
+
+| Prop       | Means                      | Draws                     |
+| ---------- | -------------------------- | ------------------------- |
+| `selected` | This is the chosen value   | A check, and nothing else |
+| `active`   | This row's submenu is open | The fill, and no check    |
+
+A selected row does **not** get a background. A check and a fill are two separate claims about the
+same state, and showing both makes a chosen row compete with the row the pointer is actually on.
+`showSelectedCheck` moves the check to a reserved leading column when a group needs to stay
+aligned whether ticked or not; otherwise it sits at the trailing edge and the leading slot is free
+for the option's icon.
+
+Give options icons; leave the root rows without them. The root is labels and their current values,
+and a column of icons there is decoration competing with the values you actually came to read.
+
+## Surface details
+
+- The hover fill is **inset from the surface's edges and rounded** — a chip inside the menu, not a
+  band across it. The inset is taken _out of_ the row, never added to it: padding gives up what
+  margin takes, so labels sit at the same 13pt they always did. Insetting by growing the row is how
+  the menu ends up taller than it started.
+- **A row is as tall as what is driving it** — 28pt for a pointer, 40pt below `md` for a thumb. The
+  split is on breakpoint, not on `presentation`: the compact popover that `compactMode` defaults to
+  is worked with a thumb just as a sheet is, and sizing off the sheet would leave it at the desktop
+  height. `md` is where `useIsCompactFormFactor` divides, so row height and the popover/sheet choice
+  turn over together.
+- The desktop height only holds because the label's `lineHeight` is pinned — 18 line + 8 padding +
+  2 border is exactly 28. Leave it to the platform and content outgrows `minHeight`, which then does
+  nothing. Compact is the other way round: `minHeight` leads and the label centres in it.
+- **A row owns its fill; `MenuPage` owns the spacing between rows.** The vertical inset above the
+  first row and below the last, and the gap between rows, are the page's — one knob each,
+  `MENU_ROW_GAP` being the one a redesign turns. A row that carried vertical margin would be
+  serving both at once, and since margins don't collapse it would land as one unit at the edges and
+  two between rows, so shrinking the gap would eat the inset with it. Horizontal inset does stay on
+  the row: there is one left edge and one right edge, so nothing is doubling up.
+- `MenuPage` is also what provides a page's depth, so the popover and the sheet cannot disagree
+  about what a page is. Every entry point goes through it — root, flyout, pushed sheet page.
+- The gap reaches a page's **direct children**. A group of rows wrapped in a `View` of its own drops
+  out of it; at the current gap of zero there is nothing to lose, but anything above zero wants that
+  wrapper to carry the page style too.
+- The separator is the one row-level thing that asks for vertical space of its own, and now that
+  rows carry none, that is still one number controlling one gap. It takes no horizontal margin and
+  the page has no horizontal padding, so the rule runs the full width of the surface.
+- Separators use `borderAccent`, the same colour the surface outlines itself with. `border` sits
+  between `surface1` and `surface2`, which put it within a hair of the hover fill and made
+  separators disappear against a hovered row.
+
+## When a decision earns a submenu
+
+Put a decision behind a submenu when its options are not the point — the current _value_ is. The
+root row then reads as the answer (`Grouping  Project ›`) and costs one line instead of one line
+per option. A menu whose every option is on screen at once does not survive its third decision.
+
+Independent toggles stay on their page as a checkmark list. A pick-one group can share that page
+below a `MenuSeparator`; make selecting the checked row clear it, so "none" doesn't need a row of
+its own.
+
+## Gotchas
+
+- **Released height.** Reanimated's web entering animation leaves an inline height snapshot on
+  the surface. `AnchoredSurface` clears it, and a `revision` prop re-clears it when content
+  identity changes — a pushed page taller than the one it replaced is clipped without that.
+- **Sheets size to content.** `enableDynamicSizing`, not fixed snap points. A pushed page is
+  rarely the height of the page before it.
+- **The sheet's content is teleported out of the menu's subtree**, so `MenuSheetSurface` rebuilds
+  both menu contexts through the sheet's `contextBridge`. Providing them around the modal puts
+  them on the wrong side of the portal and every item inside throws. Gotcha 7 in
+  [floating-panels.md](floating-panels.md).
+- **One overlay per menu.** Submenus render inside their parent's layer and paint no second
+  backdrop, so there is exactly one `Modal` on native no matter how deep the menu goes.
+- Anchoring, flipping, and edge clamping live in `menu-anchor.ts` and are unit-tested. Fix
+  positioning bugs there, not at a call site.

 # Mobile Testing

+## Agent Device
+
+Agent Device `.ad` scripts are the primary mobile E2E format. An agent discovers a working flow interactively, saves the successful commands, then the replay runner executes the same typed plan locally or in CI.

+Record a flow while driving the app normally:
+

+agent-device open sh.paseo.debug \

+agent-device press 'id="workspace-header-menu-trigger"' --session terminal-author
+# Continue the flow and verify its result with wait/get/is/find.
+agent-device close --session terminal-author
+```
+
+`close` writes the script. Keep selectors based on stable app IDs. Keep assertions as `wait`, `get`, `is`, or `find` commands; screenshots are evidence, not assertions.
+
+Run the Paseo mobile suite:
+
+```bash
+npm run test:e2e:mobile
+```
+
+The runner uses an isolated Agent Device state directory, verifies or starts Metro for this checkout, prewarms the iOS runner, discovers each script's platform from its `context` header, and cleans its sessions, runner lease, daemon, and any Metro process it started. Attempt results, timings, logs, and failure artifacts go under `.dev/agent-device-artifacts`.
+
+Set `PASEO_MOBILE_E2E_METRO_PORT` when this worktree already has Metro on a non-default port:

Each opens a fresh terminal, types a command at zero delay, submits it, and asserts its distinct output. The app must be connected to a daemon with an active workspace.

+
+```bash
+cd packages/app
+npm --prefix ../.. run build:client
+APP_VARIANT=development npx expo prebuild --platform ios
+APP_VARIANT=development npx expo run:ios --device
+```
+
+`APP_VARIANT=development` is required. The `ios` npm script does not set it, and `app.config.js` defaults
+to `production` — so a bare `npm run ios` builds `sh.paseo` and collides with the App Store install instead

+       signing certificate "Apple Development: <name>".
+error: Provisioning profile "iOS Team Provisioning Profile: *" doesn't include

+```
+
+**`No Accounts` does not reliably mean no account is configured.** Check the line _above_ it in the build
+log before believing it:
+
+```
+DVTDeveloperAccountManager: Failed to load credentials for <apple-id>:
+  Invalid credentials in keychain for <apple-id>, missing Xcode-Token
+```
+
+That is the actual failure: the Apple ID is registered in Xcode, but its `Xcode-Token` keychain item is gone
+(typically after an Apple ID password change or a keychain reset). Xcode reports it as `No Accounts`, then
+falls back to whatever stale profile is cached — and if the machine holds a dev cert newer than that
+profile, you get the _certificate_ mismatch as a second-order symptom. Chasing the certificate error is a
+dead end.
+
+Verify what is actually configured rather than trusting the message:
+
+```bash
+# Accounts Xcode knows about
+defaults read com.apple.dt.Xcode DVTDeveloperAccountManagerAppleIDLists
+
+# The credential that is actually missing (error => no token)
+security find-generic-password -s "Xcode-Token"
+```
+
+Fix: Xcode → Settings → Accounts, re-sign-in to the listed Apple ID (removing and re-adding forces a fresh
+token). That restores `-allowProvisioningUpdates`, profile regeneration, and push.
+
+Signing an Xcode-_managed_ profile via `CODE_SIGN_STYLE=Manual` is not a workaround; Xcode rejects it with
+`is Xcode managed, but signing settings require a manually managed profile`.
+
+If you need a build on the device before the token is fixed, build unsigned and sign by hand with a cert the
+cached profile already embeds (list them with `security cms -D -i <profile>.mobileprovision`, then compare
+against `security find-identity -v -p codesigning`):
+
+```bash
+xcodebuild ... CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED=NO CODE_SIGNING_REQUIRED=NO CODE_SIGN_IDENTITY="" build
+cp <profile>.mobileprovision "$APP/embedded.mobileprovision"
+# sign nested frameworks/dylibs first, then the bundle, then:
+xcrun devicectl device install app --device <udid> "$APP"
+```
+
+This is a stopgap, not a fix: `expo prebuild` regenerates `packages/app/ios/` and discards it. It also
+requires stripping entitlements the cached profile lacks (e.g. `aps-environment`), so push is dead in such a
+build.
+
+To verify only that native Swift compiles, skip signing entirely — the pods have their own schemes:
+
+```bash
+cd packages/app/ios
+xcodebuild -workspace PaseoDebug.xcworkspace -scheme ExpoTwoWayAudio \
+  -sdk iphoneos -destination 'generic/platform=iOS' CODE_SIGNING_ALLOWED=NO build
+```
+
+Confirm the log compiled _your_ file and not a cached copy: the `SwiftCompile` line should reference
+`packages/expo-two-way-audio/ios/...`, not a path inside DerivedData.
+
+### Headless launch cannot verify runtime behavior
+
+`xcrun devicectl device process launch` reports `The app terminated with the exit code 0` about a second
+after launch when the phone's screen is off — the app is suspended and killed before the JS bundle loads.
+This is **not** a build defect. Confirm with a control: launch `com.apple.Preferences` the same way and
+watch it exit identically. Headless install and launch prove the binary is valid and that startup reaches
+RN init; anything about on-screen behavior needs a human holding the phone.

+# Protocol Compatibility
+
+The app and the daemon are separate products that ship separately. A user updates the app from an app store or a desktop auto-update; they update the daemon when they feel like it. Every combination happens in the wild: new app against an old daemon, old app against a new daemon, and both sides months apart.
+
+In development both sides are always the same version, which is why this is the constraint contributors miss most often.
+
+Two contracts follow from it.
+
+## The protocol contract: always compatible
+
+A schema change must not break parsing in either direction. An old app still parses messages from a new daemon. A new daemon still parses messages from an old app.
+
+- New fields are `.optional()` with a sensible default.
+- Never flip optional to required, remove a field, or narrow a type. `string` to `enum` and nullable to non-null are both narrowing.
+- A field you stop sending stays accepted. You stop writing it, you don't stop reading it.
+- Wire schemas are pure structural declarations. No `.transform()`, `.catch()`, or `.preprocess()` on WebSocket message schemas — normalization happens in an explicit pass after validation. The reason is in [protocol-validation.md](protocol-validation.md): inbound validators are generated, and the generator only compiles pure schemas.
+- Plain `z.union()` is forbidden when every branch shares a literal tag. Use `z.discriminatedUnion()`.
+- `.default()` belongs on primitive leaves only, never on item schemas inside large arrays or big inbound containers.
+
+Two questions to ask before you commit a schema change:
+
+1. Does a six-month-old app still parse this message?
+2. Does a six-month-old daemon still send something this app accepts?
+
+If you can't answer both with yes, the change isn't done.
+
+Schemas live in `packages/protocol/src/messages.ts`. New RPC names follow [rpc-namespacing.md](rpc-namespacing.md).
+
+## The feature contract: per feature, gated once
+
+Features don't have to work across versions. A new feature usually needs a new daemon capability, and old daemons don't have it.
+
+The app checks for the capability and either runs the feature or tells the user to update the host.
+
+- **No fallback paths.** Don't build a degraded version of the feature for old daemons. Don't fan out across legacy RPCs to simulate a capability that isn't there. The user updates or doesn't get the feature.
+- **No defensive branches spread through the feature.** Detection happens in one place, and everything downstream reads a clean shape.
+- Capability flags live in `features` on the `server_info` message (`packages/protocol/src/messages.ts`, the `server_info` schema).
+
+Existing functionality keeps working across versions because of the protocol contract. Gating a new feature never substitutes for that.
+
+## Every shim is tagged and dated
+
+A shim that exists for old-app or old-daemon support carries a comment naming it, the version it arrived in, and when it can go:
+
+```ts
+// COMPAT(workspaceFileEditing): added in v0.2.0, remove after 2027-01-18 once daemon floor >= v0.2.0.
+```
+
+`rg "COMPAT\("` is the full cleanup backlog, so:
+
+- One tag per shim, at the site that has to be deleted.
+- Give it a name, a version, and a removal condition or date. Six months out is the usual default.
+- Never bury compatibility in an untagged `??` fallback or an optional-chain tunnel. Untagged back-compat never gets removed, because nobody can find it.
+
+When a tag's condition is met, delete the shim and the tag in the same change.
+
+## QA
+
+Tests don't fully cover compatibility. If you touched `packages/protocol`, say in the pull request why an older app still parses your message and why an older daemon still satisfies your app. See [qa.md](qa.md).

Provider adapters still emit their native user-message echo with the same `clientMessageId` when available; the manager records its provider identity on the internal row without changing or redispatching the wire item. If an adapter emits the echo before `startTurn` resolves, the manager records the provider identity with the row at acceptance. Provider adapters continue to own externally initiated user rows that have no Paseo client identity. Do not perform global transcript text dedupe.

-Submitted user-message rows preserve both identities: `messageId` is the provider-visible ID and the optional `clientMessageId` is the Paseo ID from `AgentRunOptions`. Attach `clientMessageId` only to the canonical row for that foreground submission; provider history and externally initiated user rows do not have a Paseo client ID.
+Rewind accepts the canonical wire `messageId` and resolves it to the provider identity before calling the adapter. A submitted prompt cannot be rewound until its provider echo supplies that identity.

-Draft metadata lookups should avoid creating provider sessions when the upstream provider has top-level APIs for that metadata. Prefer `AgentClient.fetchCatalog`, `listCommands`, or `listFeatures` over creating a scratch `AgentSession`; scratch sessions can show up as empty native sessions in provider import/history UIs. `fetchCatalog` is the single discovery API for models and modes — provider implementations may use one process, separate upstream calls, or static data internally, but callers outside the provider do not get separate runtime model/mode probes. Draft feature and command listing must use the explicit draft model only; if no model is selected yet, return no metadata instead of resolving a default model through catalog discovery.

+Provider adapters must terminalize every transient timeline row before emitting the turn's terminal event. Codex may omit the completed `contextCompaction` item when a turn ends during compaction, so its adapter closes any pending root compaction before forwarding `turn_completed`, `turn_failed`, or `turn_canceled`. A terminal turn must never leave the client showing an operation as still loading.

A client-level `listFeatures` implementation may return features from an incomplete, model-less draft and owns which features are valid in that state.

 Provider session import has its own contract. The picker calls `listImportableSessions` and receives rows only: provider handle, cwd, title, prompt previews, and last activity. Import calls `importSession({ providerHandleId, cwd })` for the selected row and must not call listing again. The provider returns the resumed session, storage config, persistence handle, and hydrated timeline for that one native session; `AgentManager.importProviderSession` seeds the daemon timeline and publishes the Paseo agent only after it is ready.

 Snapshot reads may probe providers only while the requested cwd scope is cold. Once an entry is warm, its `ready`, `error`, or `unavailable` state stays cached until an explicit refresh. Do not add TTL revalidation, focus-triggered refreshes, selector-open refreshes, or config-reload refreshes. Selector-open refetches may read an already-loading or stale React Query, but they must not force provider probing on their own.

+Capable clients receive a compact, content-addressed snapshot. Model rows derive their provider from the containing entry and reference snapshot-level thinking sets. The app persists that compact shape per server and cwd, then sends its hash on the next pull; an unchanged response carries no catalog body. Keep the legacy encoding for clients without the capability. The hash covers the complete client-visible compact snapshot, including status and `fetchedAt`, so explicit refreshes invalidate it even when the discovered catalog is otherwise equal.

 Settings refresh is the user-facing "forget stale provider knowledge everywhere" action. A settings refresh clears provider snapshot caches and in-flight loads across all cwd scopes, then immediately refreshes only the global snapshot with `force: true`. Workspace snapshots are re-probed lazily on the next scoped read; do not fan out a settings refresh across every known workspace.

 Registry/config replacement may update visible metadata such as label, description, default mode, enabled state, and provider membership, but it must not spawn provider processes. If a provider needs to be re-probed after a config change, route that through the explicit settings refresh path.

A request still in flight lands on the runner whenever the server gets to it — however many stops have come and gone since. Scoping it to the current stop looks right and quietly drops older requests from the gate. Only the newest may hold the gate closed, since recovering from a failed cancel is what pressing Stop again is for.

+# QA
+
+QA is the main bottleneck of Paseo's product development.
+
+The bar is four questions:
+
+1. Does it work well?
+2. Does it regress anything else?
+3. Was it tested on every platform it affects?
+4. Is there automated coverage, and is that coverage real?
+
+Every pull request needs evidence for the questions its change touches. Pull requests without evidence get closed.
+
+## Evidence
+
+Evidence is something someone else can look at:
+
+- The commands you ran, pasted with their output
+- The tests you added and their results
+- Before and after screenshots
+- A video of the interaction
+- Logs, requests, responses
+
+Redact what you need to, keep the technical details. If an agent did the work, submit its raw output. A summary drops the details someone else needs to check it.
+
+## Does it work well
+
+A feature that works but stutters, shifts the layout, or misaligns by two pixels is not done.
+
+For UI, that means matching the design system in visuals, in interaction, and in performance. [design.md](design.md) is the reference.
+
+The two things that go wrong most often:
+
+- **Layout shift.** Content that jumps as data arrives, a row that resizes when a badge appears, a panel that reflows on first render. Watch the change on a slow connection and on first load, not just after everything is warm.
+- **Alignment.** Things align to their glyphs, not to their touch targets. See the alignment rules in [design.md](design.md).
+
+## Does it regress anything else
+
+Paseo is composable by design, which means your change sits next to features you didn't touch. Open the surfaces around it. A change to the agent list affects archive, subagents, and tabs; a change to git actions affects worktrees and the checkout flow.
+
+Performance is part of this. The app is Expo React Native, not a web app in a native shell. You are not writing CSS, styles resolve differently, and performance characteristics differ per platform. What feels instant in a desktop dev build can be visibly slow on a phone.
+
+If your change touches a hot path such as the terminal, the message list, or git polling, submit before and after numbers. [terminal-performance.md](terminal-performance.md) has the terminal pipeline and its benchmarks, and [development.md](development.md) covers renderer and React profiling.
+
+## Every platform it affects
+
+Your code does not only run on the platform you tested it on. The same app ships to iOS, Android, browser web, and Electron on macOS, Windows, and Linux, and the daemon runs on all three desktop operating systems plus Docker.
+
+You aren't expected to own every device. You are expected to say what you covered:
+
+| Platform        | Tested | Notes |
+| --------------- | ------ | ----- |
+| iOS             |        |       |
+| Android         |        |       |
+| Web             |        |       |
+| Desktop macOS   |        |       |
+| Desktop Windows |        |       |
+| Desktop Linux   |        |       |
+
+Install what you reasonably can. An iOS simulator and an Android emulator cover most of the gap on a single machine, see [development.md](development.md) and [android.md](android.md).
+
+For the rules about which code runs where, read the platform gating section in [CLAUDE.md](../CLAUDE.md). The recurring traps have their own docs: [hover.md](hover.md), [unistyles.md](unistyles.md), [floating-panels.md](floating-panels.md), [mobile-panels.md](mobile-panels.md), [expo-router.md](expo-router.md).
+
+App and daemon versions also drift, in both directions. That has its own contract: [protocol-compatibility.md](protocol-compatibility.md).
+
+## Automated coverage that means something
+
+Tests are evidence only when they exercise the real thing.
+
+- A bug fix needs a regression test that fails on the old code for the reported reason.
+- A feature needs tests that go through the same interface a user or a caller uses.
+- Web flows need an actual Playwright run, not a mocked-out approximation of one.
+- Agent provider work needs manual verification against the real provider by someone who can tell that it worked. A fixture and a mock prove the fixture parses, nothing more.
+
+Tests that mock away the behavior, assert on internals, or pass against the broken code claim coverage that isn't there.
+
+[testing.md](testing.md) is the standard, including how to run suites without freezing your machine. For driving a real daemon in a test, see [ad-hoc-daemon-testing.md](ad-hoc-daemon-testing.md). For mobile flows, [mobile-testing.md](mobile-testing.md). For Electron screenshots, [browser-capture-harness.md](browser-capture-harness.md).

 **Next carve — CheckoutSession mutation side (Slice 4 below).** The 17 checkout _write_ handlers still inline in `session.ts` (`dispatchCheckoutMessage`, ~2010) — branch switch/rename, commit, merge, merge-from-base, pull, push, PR create/merge, github set-auto-merge/get-check-details, PR status, PR timeline, github search, stash save/pop/list — move into the existing `session/checkout/checkout-session.ts` behind `CheckoutSessionHost`. The Slice-3 observer entanglement the table fears is already resolved: #1644 moved the status/diff read side into CheckoutSession, so the workspace observer delegates today and this no longer blocks on the WorkspaceController split.

 ### Why this is safe at the dispatch seam (verified)

-`dispatchInboundMessage` builds `a() ?? b() ?? ... ?? dispatchMiscMessage()` and short-circuits on the first non-`undefined` **Promise object** (not its resolved value). Message-type spaces are **disjoint** (no duplicate `case` labels across switches), so at most one dispatcher matches any message — collapsing to delegation cannot change which handler runs. `dispatchTerminalMessage` (2150-2153) already proves this. Two quirks preserved verbatim: schedule/\* is reached via the chat dispatcher's OWN `default` arm (2183), not the top-level `??`; and `start_workspace_script_request` (a workspace type) is special-cased before terminal delegation (2150).

-### Babysitting mobile after a release
+## Release completion and heartbeat

-The user rarely opens the Expo dashboard. A failed EAS build or submit/review job can sit silently until users complain about a stale version. After every stable release, set up a long-delay babysit that re-checks GitHub Actions, EAS builds, and the EAS `Release Mobile` workflow for the release tag. If any build is `ERRORED`/`CANCELED`, any workflow is `FAILURE`, or any required submit/review job fails, surface it immediately. If all builds are `FINISHED` and all required submit/review jobs are `SUCCESS`, confirm and stop.
+A release is **in progress** after npm publication and tag push. Report it as
+**shipped** only after every applicable build, publication, asset, manifest, and
+store submission passes the completion checklist.

-**Use `create_heartbeat`, never `create_schedule`, for release babysitting.** Babysitting fires back into the current conversation as a wake-up prompt. `create_schedule` starts a fresh agent the user has to find and read; `create_heartbeat` surfaces the build status inline in the conversation that owns the release, where it is impossible to miss. If you find yourself reaching for `create_schedule` for a release babysit, you are about to ship a status report into a void.
+Immediately after every beta, stable, or promotion tag push, create a heartbeat
+that resumes the release in the current conversation. Create it automatically
+with `create_heartbeat`. The heartbeat owns the release until it either reaches
+the completion checklist or finds a failure that needs new user authority.
+
+Each heartbeat checks the release tag commit, all GitHub Actions runs for the
+release branch and tag, npm dist-tags, the GitHub Release body and assets,
+desktop updater manifests, the published Docker image, and the applicable EAS
+workflow. Inspect the GitHub Release itself and confirm that the macOS, Linux,
+Windows, and Android APK assets are present along with the channel manifests
+(`latest-mac.yml`, `latest-linux.yml`, and `latest.yml` for stable;
+`beta-mac.yml`, `beta-linux.yml`, and `beta.yml` for beta).

- Published beta prereleases are public on GitHub Releases, but they do **not** become the website download target.
- The download target only moves when you publish the final stable release tag like `v0.1.41`.
- The public `/changelog` page renders `CHANGELOG.md` as-is, so the in-flight `-beta.N` entry shows there once it lands on `main` — that's intended, it's where beta users check what's coming.

+- A published beta prerelease is offered behind the Stable/Beta switch on `/download` (`?channel=beta`), never as the default.

+- Homebrew, the Play Store, the App Store, and `app.paseo.sh` have no beta. The Beta view drops those rows, and the whole Web section, rather than showing an inert "stable only" placeholder.

+## Pull-request test routing
+
+PR checks are routed by the behavior each suite proves, using `.github/ci-paths.yml`. A package does not inherit every test suite of its runtime consumers: app changes do not run CLI or Electron-wrapper tests, and protocol changes do not run every package that imports the protocol. Cross-package static compatibility belongs to `typecheck`; full integration coverage runs after merge on main and in manual CI runs.
+
+Required matrix legs are declared as statically named jobs. Their shared steps use YAML anchors, while job-level `if` conditions let GitHub report an unaffected leg as genuinely skipped without allocating a runner or losing the exact required-check name.
+
+The smallest meaningful contract wins over package ownership. Tiny structural invariants such as daemon launch supervision run unconditionally in the always-running routing job instead of maintaining a transitive file list; this check reads source entrypoints and builds no product. Routed integration contracts use stable domain directories. Browser changes select the required Playwright shards; desktop changes select the existing required desktop jobs, with renderer, real-Electron, and packaged-app coverage together in the Ubuntu leg. CLI-side Hub changes select one focused test inside the existing required server jobs. Repository scripts and the shared Vitest configuration run every PR contract because they are cross-cutting toolchain inputs.

 Large unbounded timeline responses can exceed relay frame limits, so catch-up uses bounded pages. Bounded does not mean partial.

 Page limits are projected-item targets. A tool call lifecycle is one projected item even if it spans many source sequence numbers, and assistant/reasoning chunks are merged before counting. The response carries `seqStart`, `seqEnd`, `sourceSeqRanges`, and `collapsed` so clients can advance sequence cursors without rendering delta rows.

 Initialization timeouts guard lack of catch-up progress, not the full multi-page sync. A successful page that queues the next `after` page refreshes the watchdog.

 ## Selective and legacy delivery

 The app chooses one delivery policy from `server_info.features.selectiveAgentTimeline`:

- Selective daemons receive the union of agents visible in every pane. Additions subscribe and
-  catch up immediately. Every visibility-driven removal, including app backgrounding, stays
-  subscribed for a 30-second grace period so brief tab, pane, route, and app switches do not repeatedly
-  unsubscribe and catch up. Losing window keyboard focus does not make a selected pane invisible.
-  Disconnecting and disposal clear pending grace because the subscription itself no longer exists.
-  After grace has expired, revisiting a retained timeline displays its cached state immediately and
-  authoritative catch-up advances it to the current tail.
+- Selective daemons receive every agent visible in any pane plus the most recently viewed hidden
+  agents, up to five subscribed agents. Visible agents always win: if more than five are visible,
+  they all remain subscribed and no hidden agent does. Switching and app backgrounding preserve
+  this connection-scoped hot set, so returning to an agent still covered by it needs no catch-up.
+  Losing window keyboard focus does not make a selected pane invisible. Disconnecting clears hidden
+  hot agents; reconnect restores the currently visible set before authoritative catch-up. Revisiting
+  an evicted retained timeline displays its cached state immediately while authoritative catch-up
+  advances it to the current tail.
 - Legacy daemons keep globally streaming agent timelines. Visibility still triggers the existing
  authoritative catch-up, but the app does not issue selective-subscription RPCs.

+Every path that sends a message to an agent — composer send, dictation accept-and-send, queued

+`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.

-Canonical submitted user rows carry the provider's `messageId` and Paseo's optional
-`clientMessageId`. Clients reconcile optimistic prompts by `clientMessageId`. Content matching is
-limited to the dated compatibility path for daemon timelines created before that field existed.
+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.
+The transaction registry records two independent settlement facts: canonical acknowledgement and RPC
+settlement. Canonical acknowledgement retires optimistic activity immediately. When both facts are
+known, whichever arrives second deletes the record. A canonical acknowledgement that arrives first
+prevents a later transport error from rolling back a prompt already observed.
+
+The daemon's accepted response waits for the correlated run start and guarantees that the canonical
+submitted row has been recorded. It publishes the accepted turn's liveness before that row, so the
+client applies authoritative activity before canonical acknowledgement retires optimistic activity.
+Timeline render batching does not delay lifecycle application. Directory status never settles a
+submission. Overlapping sends settle independently rather than collapsing to one newest pending
+message.
+
+Daemons advertising `server_info.features.canonicalSubmittedPrompts` guarantee that every accepted
+prompt carrying a client message id is recorded and streamed as a canonical `user_message` with that
+same id. This includes daemon-handled commands that do not allocate a foreground turn; their submitted
+row is recorded before handler output. The app tracks submission transactions only for hosts with this
+capability. Older hosts keep the shipped untracked optimistic-row behavior and roll that row back on RPC
+rejection.
+
+Turn activity has one client-side replica. Lifecycle events can attach `turnId`, and agent snapshots can
+expose `activeTurn: { turnId, startedAt } | null`. An identified terminal cannot close a different
+identified turn; an unnamed legacy terminal can close the current turn. Snapshots, stream events,
+cancellation requests, and every visible surface update the same per-agent record. The snapshot covers
+both user-started foreground turns and autonomous provider turns;
+foreground control ownership remains a separate daemon concern. Cancellation request identity is stored
+with that record rather than in a React component, so an old request cannot clear a newer one. Submissions
+remain a separate pre-turn registry and retire on canonical acknowledgement.
+
+The compatibility boundary for older daemons is snapshot normalization: running/idle status becomes an
+anonymous active turn or idle state once, and downstream code consumes the same activity shape. The app
+does not combine anonymous lifecycle events, timestamps, timeline rows, and resume coverage to infer a
+second running state. Disconnect and replica removal remain destructive close boundaries. Elapsed time
+comes only from turn liveness, never from submission records or whichever timeline rows happen to be
+mounted.
+
+The daemon records one canonical submitted user row at acceptance. Its wire `messageId` is the
+submission's `clientMessageId`, so the row is born with its final identity and remains immutable on
+the wire. A correlated provider echo records the provider's native identity internally without
+dispatching another timeline event. Rewind resolves the wire identity to that provider identity at
+the provider boundary. Daemon-handled prompts follow the same identity rule.
+
+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. A cold
+reset without an existing epoch is destructive because the client has no continuity anchor.
+
+Tail rows are positioned history, so an unmatched local presentation is appended after the
+canonical replacement rather than ordered by timestamps from different machines. The head is a
+live overlay: cursorless items stay there during continuity replacement until canonical positions
+arrive, while a destructive replacement retains only active submission transactions.
+
+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.

 ## 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.

+`ScrollView.contentContainerStyle` is the canonical trap. It looks like a style prop, but it is not the `style` prop Unistyles registers. How badly that bites depends on who owns the component:
+
+- **A remapped React Native `ScrollView`** still picks the style up — the Babel plugin rewrites the import and the factory tracks `contentContainerStyle` alongside `style`. The failure mode here is staleness: on first mount it can paint with the theme that was active at mount time and never repaint. The upstream tutorial calls this out in its [ScrollView Background Issue](https://www.unistyl.es/v3/tutorial/settings-screen#scrollview-background-issue) section.
+- **A third-party scroller** — `BottomSheetScrollView`, `FlashList`, anything Unistyles never rewrote — drops the style entirely on web. Nothing throws and the value looks right in JS, but the class Unistyles emitted is never applied, so the padding, gap, or background is simply absent. `AdaptiveModalSheet` shipped its compact sheet content flush to the screen edges for exactly this reason while the desktop card, which uses a real `ScrollView`, looked correct.
+
+The second case is why the wrapper-`View` fix below is not optional styling advice. A themed inset belongs on a `View` you own; a third-party scroller only gets theme-free layout.

 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`.

 - **Narrow the discriminated union before spreading.** `updateTheme`'s updater returns the theme union; spreading the union widens `colorScheme` to `"light" | "dark"`, which is assignable to neither concrete member. Branch on `t.colorScheme` so each branch spreads a single narrowed theme type (no `as`).
 - **`lineHeight.diff` is the code/diff line-height axis** — it is coupled to the code-font-size control (≈ `codeFontSize * 1.5`). Do NOT use it for prose. Markdown body line-height scales with the UI ramp (`Math.round(theme.fontSize.base * 1.4)`); routing prose through `lineHeight.diff` clips text at small code sizes.
 - **High-churn draft values** (live-while-typing in the appearance preview) bypass the theme: apply them as inline styles marked with `inlineUnistylesStyle` so per-keystroke values don't grow the `#unistyles-web` CSS registry.
- **Mounted parsed content uses `AppearanceStyleBoundary`.** Markdown, syntax-highlighted code, and tool-call detail bodies can contain memoized/custom renderer trees that do not naturally re-run when runtime-patched appearance tokens change. Wrap the parsed surface once with `packages/app/src/components/appearance-style-boundary.tsx`; do not add local "appearance key" props at each callsite.
+- **The app shell uses one `AppearanceStyleBoundary`.** Runtime-patched numeric theme values are baked into Unistyles web classes rather than CSS variables, while parsed/memoized content also does not naturally re-run when appearance tokens change. The boundary sits below stable runtime providers in `app/_layout.tsx` and remounts the visual shell once. `applyAppearance` patches the active theme before inactive registry entries so its subscribers receive the committed values in the same update. Do not add local appearance keys or nested boundaries.
 - **Dynamic font tokens stay widened.** `fontFamily`, `fontSize`, and `lineHeight` on `commonTheme` are annotated `string`/`number` (not narrowed by `as const`) so the updater's return assigns; the platform default stacks live in `DEFAULT_UI_FONT_STACK` / `DEFAULT_MONO_FONT_STACK`.
