Replace base64-in-JSON file transfers with binary WebSocket frames to
unblock the JS thread when assistant markdown messages contain images.
Receive cost (JSON.parse over multi-MB base64) and persist cost (base64
re-encode to disk) both removed.
- Split daemon-client `exploreFileSystem` into `listDirectory` + `readFile`;
`readFile` returns `{ bytes, mime, size, modifiedAt }`. Encoding stays
private to the seam.
- New `packages/server/src/shared/binary-frames/` module hosts terminal
frames (moved from `terminal-stream-protocol.ts`) and new file-transfer
opcodes (`FileBegin` / `FileChunk` / `FileEnd`) with request-id correlation.
- Add optional `acceptBinary` to `FileExplorerRequestSchema`. New daemons
emit binary frames when set; legacy JSON path remains for old clients.
Compat fallback lives only inside `readFile`.
- New `persistAttachmentFromBytes` writes bytes directly: native via
`expo-file-system` `File.write(Uint8Array)`, web via Blob -> IndexedDB,
desktop via new `write_attachment_bytes` IPC. `persistAttachmentFromBase64`
removed.
Welcome to your Expo app 👋
This is an Expo project created with create-expo-app.
Get started
-
Install dependencies
npm install -
Start the app
npx expo start
In the output, you'll find options to open the app in a
- development build
- Android emulator
- iOS simulator
- Expo Go, a limited sandbox for trying out app development with Expo
You can start developing by editing the files inside the app directory. This project uses file-based routing.
Get a fresh project
When you're ready, run:
npm run reset-project
This command will move the starter code to the app-example directory and create a blank app directory where you can start developing.

Dictation debugging
Set EXPO_PUBLIC_ENABLE_AUDIO_DEBUG=1 before running npx expo start to render the in-app audio debug card. Pair it with the server-side STT_DEBUG_AUDIO_DIR flag so every dictation includes a copyable path to the saved raw audio file.
