The agent chooser only appeared during the install, and only on a Mac with
no agent. After "Skip for now", or with Codeman already installed, there was
no screen for it.
The same chooser now works after the install: "Add a coding agent" on the
This Mac tab, "Add a Coding Agent to This Mac..." in the app menu (it also
works from a Codeman page), and after a Skip the app says Codeman has no
agent yet before it opens Codeman.
`install.sh agent <id>` installs one agent and nothing else. It checks that
THAT agent landed: install_offered_cli is fatal only when no CLI is left, so
with another one present a failed install would have reported success.
The app runs it as a run of its own (`gui_install::Run::Agent`), in its own
temporary folder, so `ps` never reads it as "Codeman is being installed". It
may run next to a live server, which an install must refuse, and stops only
for another run. `--no-admin` goes to both `preflight` and `agent`: it decides
what counts as installable, so the two must agree.
CI: the bash 3.2 preflight check never tested anything. Its child run
inherited CODEMAN_INSTALL_SH_LIB and stopped at the sourcing guard, and a
false [[ ]] does not trip set -e on bash 3.2. Both are fixed for that check.

Both branches changed the connect page and three Rust files. How the
conflicts were settled:
- Layout (connect.html): both sides fixed the page being cut off above a
small window. One layout is kept, the one that also holds the header still:
a fixed top margin on `main`. The wizard's own top margin is dropped, since
the page is anchored from the top in every state now and a second margin
would move the header when the wizard opens. `#elsewhere` is a child of the
card since the status line moved above it, so the wizard hides it too.
- State (connect.html): `gui` from the installer next to `askedFrom`,
`reopen` and the starting-server counters from the review.
- setup.rs: `running_install` for the port, `install_in_app` for the flag.
- local_server.rs: `login_environment` and `in_home` both stay.
- README: the installer's This Mac row with the sentence about a starting
server; both new paragraphs.
test/desktop-connect-page.browser.test.ts reaches the Terminal install the
way the page now offers it (Install, a failed preparation, "Install in
Terminal instead"), since Install opens the graphical install here.
Checked on the merged tree: 138 Rust unit tests, clippy and fmt on the Mac
mini; test/desktop-connect-install.test.ts (jsdom) and
test/desktop-connect-page.browser.test.ts (Chromium) both pass.

main.rs was the only source file without tests, and it held three decisions
with real failure modes:
- Which login a connect goes out with. The choice was a closure body inside
the probe worker; it is now choose_login, tested for every row: typed wins,
then the Keychain, then the local Codeman's own login, which is used only
when no saved password was expected and only for the same username.
- What the Keychain keeps afterwards (update_keychain): saved or deleted by
Remember, never a copy of the local server's login, never a password the
server wants changed, and the old user's item deleted before the new save.
The in-memory Keychain store moves out of credentials' test module so other
test modules can use it.
- When a commit in the main window means the server page is loaded.
The connect page had only substring checks in the repository; the checks that
drove it lived in a scratch script. They are now
test/desktop-connect-page.browser.test.ts: Chromium, the page's real CSP, a
stubbed native side, five ordered walks through every state of both tabs
(first run, logins, failures, redirects, Start, the install wait, the SSH
install, layout, double clicks, keys, a starting server, a WebKit too old).
Listed in BROWSER_TEST_GLOBS, so the nightly browser suite runs it and
`npm test` does not.
Also pins the install one-liner the page shows to the one Copy copies.

The This Mac tab runs install.sh --no-admin itself. The two questions only a
person can answer move into the app: which coding agent to install, shown only
when this Mac has none, and who may reach Codeman. The installer's output goes
to a file, so a running install survives the app quitting and is picked up
again when it reopens.
install.sh gains --ai-cli, --progress and a preflight subcommand, which is what
the app reads its choices from, so it keeps no copy of the CLI catalogue.

The graphical install runs install.sh --no-admin, so this branch needs both
PR #763 (the app) and PR #768 (the route that needs no password).

Codeman itself always lived under $HOME; administrator rights were only
spent on what it needs first (system packages for Node.js, tmux and git,
Homebrew on a Mac). An account without those rights could not install it:
the installer died in ensure_sudo, or in Homebrew's own installer.
install.sh now has a no-admin route, taken by itself when the account has
no administrator rights (no sudo binary; outside sudo/wheel/admin and
`sudo -n true` fails; a refused sudo password; a Mac account outside the
admin group with no writable Homebrew) and forced with --no-admin or
CODEMAN_NO_ADMIN=1:
- Node.js: the official tarball from nodejs.org, checked against the
SHASUMS256.txt published beside it, into ~/.codeman/runtime/node.
- tmux: the tmux project's own build (tmux/tmux-builds 3.7c), checked
against a SHA-256 pinned in the installer, into ~/.codeman/runtime/bin.
- Both are linked from ~/.local/bin (never over a file that is not ours),
and the runtime is on PATH and on the LaunchAgent's PATH.
- git is never installed. Without a working git the source comes as an
archive, the install is marked with .install-source, and it updates by
re-running the installer: the new tree is built beside the old one and
swapped in only after the build succeeded. A later re-run on a machine
that has gained git turns it back into a clone.
- Nothing on this route runs sudo, Homebrew or `xcode-select --install`,
and the route is never decided by `sudo -v`.
What it cannot supply is checked before the first download: a C/C++
toolchain on Linux (node-pty 1.1.0 compiles there), musl, and macOS below
15 (the tmux build's deployment target).
Along the way:
- check_git no longer trusts `command -v git`. On a Mac without the Xcode
Command Line Tools /usr/bin/git is a stub that opens Apple's install
dialog; it is judged by `xcode-select -p` and never executed. Any other
git is asked for its version.
- scripts/git-hooks.mjs answers "not a checkout" without running git, for
the same reason: postinstall calls it on every npm install.
- The in-app updater knows the install kind `archive` and points such an
install at the installer instead of `npm i -g aicodeman@latest`.
- download() and download_to_stdout() resolve DOWNLOADER themselves. Only
main() used to set it, so `install.sh cloudflared` died on `set -u` with
the message swallowed by the step log.
- The AI CLI menu leaves out a Homebrew-only install command where there
is no Homebrew.
Verified with the real installer: a bare Ubuntu 24.04 container as an
unprivileged user (install, a PTY round trip through the API, update by
re-run, cloudflared, uninstall), the same without a compiler (stops before
any download), with a broken then working git, with sudo present but not
usable, and on macOS 26 (arm64) in an isolated HOME with sudo, brew, git,
the compilers, launchctl and tailscale replaced by tripwires. Not verified
on a real standard macOS account: that account was an administrator.

Adds packages/desktop, a small native app (Rust: tao, wry/WKWebView, muda,
objc2) that opens Codeman in its own window. The universal app is about 5 MB
(3.2 MB as a DMG) and runs on macOS 11.3 or later.
- Connect screen with two tabs. This Mac finds the local Codeman and offers
Open, Start or Install. Start uses launchd for a LaunchAgent install and
codeman web -d otherwise. It never starts a second server while one runs,
because two servers on one data dir share live sessions. Another machine
connects by address (recent servers, Keychain logins) and can install
Codeman there over SSH.
- Installs run Codeman's install.sh in Terminal from a self-deleting
.command script. The installer needs a terminal for sudo, Homebrew and
ssh. A local install uses --local --service and the first free port from
3000, and the app opens Codeman once it answers.
- The local Codeman's login is read from its LaunchAgent or
~/.codeman/.env. It is sent only to 127.0.0.1 on that port, only while
the user's own Codeman process holds it, and is never saved.
- Native JS dialogs (alert, confirm, prompt) and HTTP Basic challenge
answers, both scoped to Codeman's own pages, so the page keeps working
after a server restart. App cookies are cleared before every connect.
- Pop-outs through window.CodemanHost, with an allowlist (webview/ never
opens a window), external links in the default browser, downloads to
~/Downloads, real full screen and window state that is remembered.
- The connect page refuses a WebKit older than Safari 16.4, which Codeman's
terminal needs.
Codeman side: viewSubagentTranscript shows a toast when the pop-up is
refused instead of failing, with zh-CN strings and a test that pins them.

The gate belonged to whichever read arrived first, and sessions load their stores
independently, so under CI timing another session took it, the loop never reached
release() and the test timed out (master, CI run 41930703100). The code cannot block
one session on another: sync() only waits on its own slot.

Clone ran an unbounded realpath over every Docker case workspace, and the mkdir
route inherited the picker resolver's realpathSync, which freezes the whole server
on a mount that stopped answering. The picker's browse route has the same call and
is left as it was.

The dedicated route got this order at merge and quick-start kept the old one, so
a user could agree to a swap only to get the 400. It also runs on the pure build
now, so a refused id writes no config dir to clean up.

A table costs its widest cell times its rows, so one wide cell in an agent's last
message built a 202 MB string on the event loop although only 8 posts can ever go
out. Only what can be posted is converted now. A file a person sent from Discord
also fired attachment:detected as if the agent had produced it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Discord bot token was readable through the attachment routes, because
discord.json was not on the sensitive list, and so were webhook.json,
custom-model-hosts.json and the generated custom-model configs. Config backups
were the wider gap: a dated copy of users.json or settings.json matched none of
the name-anchored patterns. All are blocked now.
`codeman notify --file` relied on folder confinement alone, which holds nothing
back when a tab's folder is the home directory, and it would also post a
workspace .env. It now applies the attachment blocklist to the real path.

Owner decision. Typing the note into a brand-new non-Claude tab spent a model
turn per tab and, for a spawned worker or a scheduled run, landed with the first
real prompt. Claude keeps its hint through the system prompt, and every other CLI
is told nothing. The setting goes with the path it gated: sessionIdle, the fresh
set, isHintableSession and the session:idle wiring. sendInput loses `fromUser`,
which was only ever false for the hint, and the deps test pins that a reply is a
person's own input.

`cwd` beside the fixed `workingDir` reads ambiguously on a public API surface, and
`paneCwd` says where the value comes from, like `paneExit`. Also pin the field on
the payload the browser really receives (getSessionStateWithRespawn), and give the
pane-directory text its own architecture-invariants paragraph.

A Bash( row holds a command, so its parentheses do not bound one spaced path:
`Bash(/tmp/a.out input.txt)` became a single link to a file that cannot exist and
lost master's `input.txt` link. The path tools keep linking a spaced name whole,
and a hard-wrapped Bash( row gets no spaced lookup either. Test rows from #734.

Say that settings.yaml is shared only until the session's first settings write
(dsh saves by rename, which replaces the link), warn when a session's own DSH_HOME
does not answer and the server's home is linked instead, test
guardSessionConfigDirHome, and document the linkFromRealHome exception and what a
custom-model dsh session does not carry over.

The launch-id check is pure, so it now runs before the context warning and the
swap confirmation: nobody agrees to evict a model only to get the 400. Also the
search-box and in-use comments, the model-plain-colon wording, and the wiki's
order of the picker's marks.

A new install has no seen list, so every new OpenCode user was still warned about

an empty list is now a valid file, and the validators keep running over whatever

selectSession() toggles .active at once while _syncTabStripCorner() only runs in
the debounced render, so a cap set after measuring left a newly selected first
tab wider than the room and dropped the first row below the toolbar until then.
max-width changes nothing on a narrower tab, so the cap is simply always on, and
the clear-before-measure and finish-the-animation loops go. The no-usable-room
test uses 8 tabs: at 40 the scroll fallback fires first and it passed at any
threshold.

Follow-up from an own review pass of de436576:
- PATH_TOKEN_RE branch 1 stops at the next `file://` instead of at `:`,
so `file:///tmp/plot-12:30.png` is found again; still linear.
- Forward reads yield between files like "Load older"; a store removed
meanwhile ends the read and its printed paths are never probed.
- POST /edits/older and GET /edits/:entryId no longer load a store for
remote, Docker or non-claude sessions (shared unsupportedList()).
- Time budgets widened (1 s per line, 3 s per chunk; ~3 s / 6.6 s before
the fix) so the throttled suite does not flake.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- probeLocalPaths: every agent-printed candidate goes through
probePathKind() first (no pastCap, bulk scan), sequentially; only a path
that answered 'file' gets realpath + stat. A path on a mount that stopped
answering no longer hangs the sync, a queued sync or remove().
- PATH_TOKEN_RE: branch 4 starts only at a token boundary (`:` excluded so
URLs stay ignored), branch 1 stops at `:`. Linear in the line length
(30,000 `#` took ~3 s before).
- Load older yields to the event loop between the files it parses.
- GET /edits answers unsupported without loading a store.
- CLAUDE.md paragraph trimmed to the rules; probe and regex rules added to
architecture-invariants#edit-history-panel.
Tests: stall test through the real sync and probe with a stat that never
settles; time-budget tests with 30,000-character inputs and a 139-result
base64 chunk; route test asserts no store load for unsupported sessions.

Review round on PR #757. The route turns EVERY upstream failure into
isLlamaSwap: false, so the old line silently promised an unreachable
endpoint was merely mute, and the live-session check missed a null pid
(the PTY exited, the same test keep-warm applies).
- Require pid !== null in _getCustomModelInUseBySession, pinned by a
'process exited' case in the marks-nothing table
- Reword #customModelPickUnknown to claim only that nothing was
reported, true for a down endpoint too; drop the 'stays quiet for a
failed probe' promise from changeset, docs and comments
- architecture-invariants: add the In-use tier, both pin fences
(customModel not displayModel; stopped/null-pid/paneExit never
count) and the unknown-line rule
- Mirror the wording through i18n (key + zh-CN), index.html fixture,
styles.css comment, and the run-menu tests
Round-four review, split fix 1: a stale 'last used' id kept the promotion truthy, so no row was tagged and the 'Nothing is marked' line stayed hidden. Derive it from promoted && models.includes(promoted).
Only llama-swap answers what is loaded, so behind a gateway such as Bifrost
nothing was marked and the picker fell back to discovery order apart from the
one CLI that had launched there before. A live session whose own injected
endpoint is that host now promotes its model as "In use by a session", under
its own tag and below llama-swap's "Currently loaded" answer, reading only
what Codeman injected rather than terminal text, and never a stopped session.
When genuinely nothing is known the picker says so instead of leaving an
unmarked wall, and stays quiet for an endpoint that merely failed to answer.
Round-four review smaller item: one getCustomModelForPersist().launchModel expectation, like the pi/grok/omp tests beside it, pins #750 on the one-shot path.
Round-four review item 4: focusing the search input on every picker open raises the OS keyboard over the list on phones; guard it the way readmymind-ui.js does.
Round-four review item 3: the swap route wrote the new config.toml into the very dir a live codex session uses as CODEX_HOME before checking the pattern, and its refusal then deleted that dir. buildCustomModelInjection is pure, so the check runs on its result and a refused id never touches the filesystem. Pinned by a two-apply codex route test.
Second review round on PR #755: skip non-absolute DSH_HOME candidates so a relative home can never mkdir under the server cwd; probe a session-supplied home with probePathKind in both async routes before the synchronous apply; test the session env-override lookup (seventh arg) incl. the self-link fall-through and the relative-home skip; reject '.' and '..' as realHomeFallback and enforce linkFromRealHomeDirs subset in the schema; fix the stale apply JSDoc and the two doc lines lagging the verified dsh run; state the shared/isolated split plainly.
- linkFromRealHomeDirs marks directory entries: missing dirs are created (0700) instead of leaving a dangling link that failed every prompt with ENOENT; missing file targets are skipped
- _restoreCustomModel rebuilds the bookkeeping from the CURRENT recipe (configDir + env-key union) so a selection saved under the old env recipe can still be cleared after upgrade; drop the dead session-home recovery lookup
- deepseek's patch now references CODEMAN_CUSTOM_MODEL_API_KEY, so an in-session /model switch back to the official route cannot carry the custom key to api.deepseek.com (privilegedEnvKeys updated)
- schema: realHomeFallback must be one relative segment; linkFromRealHome requires it and must not collide with fileName
- docs: maintainer-verified real-dsh run replaces the outstanding-verification wording; shares-vs-isolates note; plan table row refreshed
- linkFromRealHome/realHomeFallback on the configDir recipe; the apply consumer is generic and names no CLI
- lstat guard so boot-recovery re-applies survive a dangling link; symlink is best-effort
- resolve the real home from the session's own dirEnvVar override before the server's, threaded through both routes and boot recovery (Session.envOverrideValue)
- deepseek links profiles/sessions/settings.yaml; boot-recovery test covers the session lookup
Replace the deepseek env redirect with a deepseek-patch-json recipe: a per-session DSH_HOME holding a generated cordis.patch.yml that declares a codeman-custom openai-completions provider over the installed profile. Ported from PR #752 commits 941df574 and 4bb1bfe9, minus the core context-limit changes.
- share one context-length resolution (discovered figure, endpoint default fallback) across the routes and boot recovery, with a recovery test
- record listed per-slot context figures with a slot count of 1 and force the slot-count fallback once per rediscovery
- open up the codex model launch token for qwen3-style ids (model-plain-colon), pinned by a spawn-golden case
- pass the full discovered window to opencode as limit.context
- translate the picker search strings and document the discovery precedence
