A claude session on its own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR launched on an endpoint with
<isolated>/projects linked to the server's tree. The resume pin looks there, so
apply found no transcript and started a new conversation, and on clear the
endpoint's transcript stayed behind in the server's tree.
The link now goes to <own dir>/projects when the session set one, so the
conversation and what the endpoint run adds stay on the session's own account
across an apply, a clear and a restart. It goes through linkRealHomeEntry(),
which also creates a missing projects folder instead of leaving a dangling
link, in the own dir and in ~/.claude/projects on the default path. A relative
CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR of the server gets no link, since joining it would create
projects under the server's working directory.
Rule #516: guardSessionConfigDirHome() now covers configDirVar, so all three
apply sites (route, quick-start, boot recovery) probe the own dir bounded before
the apply touches it, and a dir that does not answer falls back to the server's
tree. Under test, HOME is a temp dir and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is stripped by
test/setup.ts, which a new test pins.
Measured on a real Codeman server with a fake claude: apply and re-apply resume
under the isolated dir with the transcript landing in the own dir, a clear
resumes on the own dir, the isolated dir goes while the transcript stays, and the
same holds across a server restart. The documented limits come out.

The attach line now takes the rule #770 gave remote and docker launches: bashCArg() single-quotes it at both respawn-pane sites, so it reaches bash verbatim. quoteAdoptLaunch is retired, since its double quotes kept the same $ and backtick safety but lost a real newline. #510's no-cd condition stays.

The "Will clone into" line named a folder the request would not use: the
preflight replaces the page's guessed case name with the server's (for a
URL such as .../repo?tab=readme the guess is repo-tab-readme and the server
says repo) and nothing refreshed the preview, so it stayed on the old name
while the field and the request moved on. It is now refreshed there too.
The Browse picker's title and the empty-field toast still said "Choose the
folder to clone into", the old exact-target meaning. Both now ask for the
parent folder, matching the field's label.
CLAUDE.md and the invariants paragraph split the two meanings: path on the
API is the exact folder, the Clone Repo tab's field is a parent and the page
sends <folder>/<case name>.

candidatesFrom had moved outside the try when the transports moved to
runForeignProbe, so a classifier failure would have reached the route as a 500.
The module promises it never throws, so the guard is back for local and docker.
Docs:
- The api reference said `blocked` waits are always refused, and listed Ralph as
refused while two of its file routes were not (they are now).
- The invariants doc and CLAUDE.md gain the rules this review turned up: target
syntax in names, the ping before list-panes, nothing typed into an adopted pane,
quoteAdoptLaunch.
- CLAUDE.md no longer says every claude session gets hooks or a stop wait.
- ForeignTmuxSession's mode and workingDir describe the first listed pane, not
the active one.
- The wiki had no page on adoption: The Dashboard gains an Opened outside Codeman
section, and the remote and docker pages point at it. docs/docker-cases.md now
separates an adopted container from an adopted tmux session.

The New folder rule in the same paragraph does cover that picker, so "none of
the host rules" said too much.

The picker is now reached from every Add Case Browse button, so three lines
in the manual and the opening of the CLAUDE.md and architecture-invariants
paragraphs read wrong. A Browse fills its form field, only the Path key types
into a prompt, and Docker's Container Workdir picker lists the inside of the
container through POST /api/docker-cases/browse: it always shows dot entries
and the host allowlist does not apply to it.

The round-robin walk capped what it listed, not what it read: every queued
folder was read whole, sorted and held until drained, so one GET could pull
millions of entries (100 folders of 50,000 files killed a 400 MB heap). A read
now keeps only the entries the listing can use, and MAX_WALK_ENTRIES_READ stops
opening folders at 250,000 entries, leaving the rest queued and flagged.
A folder also spent its whole share on its own files, leaving nothing for the
subfolders it had just found, alone in its round or beside a sibling, so search
hits inside them were lost. Its files now count as one more share beside those
subfolders. Math.max(directoriesInRound, 2) would have fixed only the sole-folder
case and cut a wide root's folder list short.
Folders below the walk root are probed before their readdir (#516), since the
walk reaches folders the depth-first one never did.
Filtering at the read also clears the false flag on a folder whose only unread
entries were hidden or excluded, and an exactly-full workspace now finishes.

With the folder field empty, Create New's Browse opens in the cases folder, and New
folder there answered "Use Add Case > New Case". There is no tab of that name (the
label is Create New), and a Create New user is already on it. The refusal now reads
right from Link Existing and from Create New's custom folder. Its test pin, the code
comment, the manual, api-reference, CLAUDE.md and architecture-invariants move with it.
The block() helper in the New folder picker test returned an empty string for a name
that is not in session-ui.js, so .not.toContain passed and a renamed picker dropped out
of the check. It now asserts the name was found.
The manual's path picker list said two places and left out Create New, which the New
folder paragraph names. It now lists every Browse that opens the picker, and that
paragraph is rewrapped to the page's width.

The two routes are public under /api/v1, so they get an API reference section.
The overlay gets an architecture note and a CLAUDE.md rule: an adopted session
has session.remote and session.docker undefined and a neutral workingDir, so any
new code that reads workingDir as a workspace must also test isAdopted. That is
the class of bug this round fixed a dozen times.
Records a measured limit: while the view exists an owner's kill-session leaves
the window alive under it until the tab closes.
Comments that still called workingDir the foreign pane's cwd now say what is
true since the wrapper got its neutral folder. Also drops a zh-CN key that
duplicated an existing one, and updates the two structure tests pinned on the
lines this round changed.

Applies the review of #766.
The live lookup ran tmux on the bare PATH of the ssh command. On a host
where tmux sits in ~/.local/bin or /opt/homebrew/bin it found no pane, the
2>/dev/null hid that, and the panel stayed on the launch conversation after
a /clear. It now goes through withRemoteTmuxPath(), inside the sh script and
scoped to the $(...), so the other tools keep the PATH they had. The fake
tmux of the test block moved to $HOME/.local/bin for the same reason: that
directory is first on the new PATH, so a real tmux is never asked.
The two ssh commands get exec. Node signals the local sh -c, and dash stays
the parent of a plain command, so ssh survived the timeout. A test with a
fake ssh shows the process dies now and survives without exec.
The comment at the meta budget claimed a meta past it comes with a later
read. A meta comes only with a subagent's first read, so it is never sent.
Docs: the store is named as the exception to "never copied to local disk",
remoteProbePaths and the remote transcript lookup are described, and the
line saying a remote session loads no store is gone.

The fair rounds give a directory its node before reading it, so every folder
still queued when the 5,000-node budget ends sat in the tree with empty or
partial children and read as an empty folder. Keep the node on the tree cursor
and set an additive incomplete: true on every cursor left in the queue, then
draw one dim, inert row under such a folder while it is expanded. The envelope
check ignores keys it does not know, so old and new clients stay compatible.
Stop each round at the top once the budget is spent, before the shift: the
rest stay queued unread, and flagged, rather than read and sorted for nothing.
Say what the walk is: a per-directory round-robin (breadth-first), fair per
directory and not per subtree, with search results now shallow-first.

Records the limit on a session with its own CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, which does not
carry its conversation across an endpoint because the isolated projects link
goes to the server's tree. Also records that an own home set before a restart
with no selection is lost on clear, that only an absolute path is persisted,
and tells the user manual what a clear gives back.

The API reference still said a registry failure on create and clone is
500 and did not list the rename's new 409s. CLAUDE.md said both files
are restored after a failed registry write, and left out the
config-backup restore exception.

The security wording claimed a folder strictly below workingDir was the whole
argument, which the symlink fix showed was only the lookup's half. The rest is
docs that were missing: liveWorktree, root=live and worktree in the API
reference, the mechanism section the CLAUDE.md paragraph had no pointer to, what
a root=live query matches against, and the limits a reader meets in the wiki
(the Git panel stays on the session's folder, a session started below the
repository's top is not followed, a page under .claude/worktrees opens as
source).

transcriptPageKeys applied to every pi, and a pi in `tuiMode: regular` binds
PageUp/PageDown to its editor. It emits no mouse enable, so the flag stays
false, and on a fresh pane the buffer is hollow: the wheel sent PageUp, the
caret of a multi-line draft moved, and the next keystroke landed on the wrong
line. Measured on real pi 1.1.0, 1.4.0 and 1.5.0. Regular mode is not exotic,
it only takes one line in pi's settings. Telling the two modes apart would
need a new capability, since the paging gate takes no id, so pi has no
fallback: a fullscreen pi with "Wheel scrolls local history" on stays where
master left it.
altScreen, the half of the fix that does the work, was pinned by nothing:
reverting it left 1328 tests green. The strip decision table reads its
expected value from the same registry entry. pi now has its own block using
the bytes it really emits, which also pins that focus reporting survives.
The fullscreen default dates from pi 1.0.0, not 1.4.0, so the comments say
that, and the sites still calling pi narrow-strip or main-screen by default
are corrected. Where a comment listed CLIs it now names the capability.

Claude Code's EnterWorktree moves the running process into
<repo>/.claude/worktrees/<name>, while Session.workingDir stays on the main
checkout. The Files panel kept walking workingDir, so it listed a tree the
agent had left.
paneCwd already follows the move, measured on Claude Code 2.1.318 in both
directions, so nothing new has to track the agent. It also follows every cd
in a shell, so a new SessionState.liveWorktree narrows it to a linked
worktree, read from the .git file without starting git.
Only a folder strictly below workingDir is ever an answer, and the listing
only starts there: returned paths stay relative to workingDir, so the
preview, raw and edit routes are unchanged and confinement does not widen.
A worktree outside the session folder stays unfollowed.
The panel asks with root=live, shows a strip naming the worktree with a
switch to the session folder, and follows the agent in and out while open.

pi 1.4.0 is an alt-screen TUI that enables mouse tracking once at start.
Codeman's replay (tab switch, reload) drops that mode in xterm
(mouseTrackingMode none, baseY 0), so the wheel hit an empty local buffer
and stayed dead until a resize made pi redraw.
Same shape as copilot: altScreen strip-mux-and-mouse (the server records
the stripped DECSETs as cliMouseTracking, which survives the replay),
wheelForward always, transcriptPageKeys (PageUp/PageDown fallback for a
stale flag, measured on pi 1.4.0). _shouldForwardWheelToApp treats pi like
copilot. Registry pins and docs updated.
Tests: 2 new in terminal-scroll-routing (red before). Full run: 12989
passed, 5 red from the de_DE locale / XDG env (custom-model-run-menu-ui,
git-worktrees, edit-history-sync), all green under LANG=C.UTF-8.

(cherry picked from commit 53e4136d9f4401e9250ac6a122599ffcb2a57e8a)
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.

Applying a custom model writes the endpoint's values over the keys it
injects, and clearing the model unset those keys. A session that had set
one of them itself lost that value: its own DSH_HOME, CODEX_HOME,
GROK_HOME or GEMINI_API_KEY was gone once the model was cleared, and so
was CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, which silently moved a Claude session onto the
default account. Switching endpoints did the same.
setCustomModel() now records what the session held under each injected
key and restores it on clear and on switch. Quick-start passes the
caller's values to the Session constructor so they are seen before the
selection lands.
The selection overwrites the only other copy, tmux's setenv, so the
session's own home directory has to survive a Codeman restart on its
own. __customModel therefore stores that one path, the single exception
to persisting keys only, and recovery runs it through
clampEnvOverridesForOwner() so a revoked grant cannot bring it back. Any
other own value, a credential included, stays in memory only.

The edit history panel now covers remote claude sessions. The sync stays
path-based; its deps get the session and server.ts routes them to the local
reader or to two new ssh reads in remote-files.ts:
- remoteLocateClaudeTranscript: one round trip; the conversation the remote
pane's claude writes now (~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json via the pane's
process tree, since remote hosts send no hooks), else claudeSessionId,
else the session id, newest $HOME/.claude/projects/*/<id>.jsonl.
- remoteReadClaudeEditSources: one round trip per read pass, with the local
reader's semantics (offset clamp, block end at offset+len, new files read
their tail, shared main-first budget, onlyRequested, 8 KiB meta cap).
So /clear catch-up, "Load older", cursors and the store LRU work remotely
unchanged. Reads use buildRemoteFileCommand + runWithRemoteSshLimit only:
a sleeping host is a connect timeout -> unavailable, stored entries kept.
Tests: both scripts run on a real sh against a temp HOME; the read is
compared byte for byte with readClaudeEditSources on 60 seeded random
transcripts. A transitive import guard pins that the edit-history read path
reaches neither remote-wake.ts nor session-routes.ts. Browser: a remote
session lists images without thumbnails, a click previews. Docs updated.

Five routes changed the linked-cases registry: link, unlink, rename, and a
create or clone into a custom folder. Each read the file, checked it and wrote
it back on its own, so two requests that both read before either wrote lost
an entry. Two clones that claimed one name and finished together both passed
the name check, both answered success, and the later write replaced the
earlier entry. The same race made "a name linked while the clone ran is a
409" in test/routes/case-clone-custom-folder.test.ts fail about half the time.
- New src/web/linked-cases-writer.ts, mutateLinkedCases(), shaped like
mutateSettingsFile(): mutations run one at a time, each write is a temp
file renamed over the registry (through a symlink, keeping its mode), and
a file that is not a JSON object is refused (409 CONFLICT) instead of being
read as {} and overwritten.
- All five writers go through it, with their name checks inside the
callback, so exactly one of two requests for one name wins. Rename also
re-checks that the old name still points at the old folder, and drops its
manual registry undo, since a failed write no longer changes the file.
- Tests: test/linked-cases-writer.test.ts (writer behaviour, and concurrent
link/unlink through the routes with slowed writes, which fail on the old
code). Tests that forced a failed registry write with chmod 444 or a
directory now inject the failure at the rename, or expect the refusal.

The release note and the security doc read as if no file view could return it. The

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.

- 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.

A folder made in a cases directory is already a case (no scaffold), which Link
Existing then refuses by name and which deleting would take the linked folder
with. The route refuses a cases directory as the parent (the shared one and the
caller's own), a leading tilde in the name, and maps a vanished parent to 404.
Docs now say every name it accepts is one Link Existing accepts, and the wiki
describes the button.
git's refusal quotes the destination, so a folder named openssl or rustls
classified as HOST_UNREACHABLE and the cleanup emptied it. The cleanup now
tests git's own text, DESTINATION_EXISTS is matched first, and ssl/tls are
matched as words. Also: a test for the Docker refusal on the default branch,
the route JSDoc and constant comment, and the folder copy (empty, or new).
The name rule now matches safePathSchema (letters, digits, space and _ - . ~,
no .., no leading dot, at most 255 bytes) so every folder it makes can be
linked. A file as the parent is a 400, errno text is no longer returned,
showHidden is forwarded like browse, and Create is disabled while the request
runs. Adds multi-user scoping tests.
A direct clone whose git-slot wait timed out came back with no spawnError, so
the cleanup emptied a folder git never touched. GitRun now says whether git
started and the cleanup requires it. Cloning into a folder at or inside a
Docker case workspace is refused, as git status, fetch and worktrees do, since
git would run the new repository's hooks and filters on the host.
The picker could only choose an existing folder. POST /api/filesystem/mkdir
creates one folder inside a folder the picker may browse (same roots,
ownership and blocked-tree rules as browse), and PathPicker gains an opt-in
allowNewFolder that adds a New folder button and selects the result.
A direct clone into an empty folder emptied the folder after any failure, which
deleted a concurrent attempt's finished clone when git had written nothing.
Clones into one folder are now mutually exclusive in-process, the cleanup is
skipped when git refused the folder, never ran, or the mount is unresponsive,
and a name linked while the clone ran is a 409 that keeps the folder.
Documents path for POST /api/cases/clone.
