 The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),
 and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html).
 
-## [Unreleased]
+## [Unreleased - Major]
+
+### Added
+
+- Agent Relay Desktop is now open source in `apps/desktop`, including the macOS app, the GTK app for Linux and Windows, and their shared relay core.
 
 ### Removed
 
 - Python workflows, the `agent-relay.py` node provider, and the `agent-relay-sdk` package. Local workflows are YAML, TypeScript, JavaScript, or shell. Cloud and worker workflows are YAML or TypeScript. Node definitions are TypeScript or JavaScript. SDKs are TypeScript and Swift.
+- Gemini, local Cursor CLI, Aider, Goose, and Droid are no longer spawn providers. CLI, MCP, SDK, Fleet, and broker compatibility paths return `provider_removed` instead of starting them, and Cloud connect, provider registries, and live-eval matrices no longer advertise them.
+
+### Breaking Changes
+
+- Node capacity no longer advertises `spawn:gemini`, `spawn:cursor`, `spawn:cursor-agent`, `spawn:aider`, `spawn:goose`, or `spawn:droid`, including when old teams, node definitions, or environment overrides name them.
+
+### Migration Guidance
+
+- Replace local Cursor CLI spawns with `cursor-cloud`. Move Gemini, Aider, Goose, and Droid workloads to a supported native provider such as Claude, Codex, or OpenCode.

+
+[Agent Relay Desktop](apps/desktop/README.md) is the native companion app for
+connecting local coding sessions, messaging agents, and sharing session history.
+See the platform guides for [macOS](apps/desktop/macos/README.md),
+[Linux](apps/desktop/linux/README.md), and
+[Windows](apps/desktop/windows/README.md), or follow the
+[agent-driven installation guide](apps/desktop/docs/agent-driven-setup.md) for
+unattended macOS and headless Ubuntu setup.

+Keep GTK app builds on Ubuntu 22.04: its GTK 4.6 is the supported minimum.
+Each architecture builds and tests natively. Standalone probe CI uses Ubuntu
+24.04 with Zig targeting glibc 2.34. Do not point an ARM variable at an x64
+runner or use the general Ubuntu 24.04 variable for GTK builds.
+
+The [Blacksmith GitHub App](https://docs.blacksmith.sh/introduction/quickstart)
+must have access to this repository. Configure the variables under repository
+Settings → Secrets and variables → Actions → Variables, or with `gh variable
+set NAME --body VALUE`. Values use the
+[published Blacksmith runner labels](https://docs.blacksmith.sh/blacksmith-runners/overview).
+Delete a variable to send its jobs back to the GitHub-hosted fallback on the
+next run. These fallbacks apply when a variable is empty, not when a configured
+runner is unavailable.
+
+Existing Rust cache actions work on Blacksmith without replacement.
+
+## Parallel CI lanes and required checks
+
+For both same-repository pull requests and pushes to `main`, CI first selects
+changed components, then checks representative native architectures: macOS
+arm64, Linux x64 and Windows x64. macOS packaging, Swift tests and core
+integration tests run independently. Linux independently selects GTK/library
+and real-core integration/startup steps within its native test job, alongside
+the Zig core build and packaging. Windows also
+runs native tests independently of packaging. Swift source/test changes select
+Swift checks without Rust/npm core or release packaging work. Ordinary Rust
+source/test changes retain native tests and core integration while deferring
+release packaging on all platforms. Reviewed build inputs select the relevant
+package lanes; unknown inputs conservatively select everything. Fork pull
+requests retain the workflow's existing skip policy.
+
+The existing `macOS arm64`, `macOS x64`, `Linux arm64`, `Linux x64`,
+`Windows arm64` and `Windows x64` check names are retained as compatibility
+completion gates over the selected architecture matrix. Their names preserve
+existing branch protection; they do not imply that a deferred architecture
+was tested in that run. Job summaries list the actual architectures covered.
+Each gate requires successful change detection and successful completion of
+every applicable platform lane. A failed, cancelled or unexpectedly skipped
+applicable lane fails the gate. An intentionally excluded component passes its
+lightweight gate after successful detection and validation of the skipped
+native dependencies. Gate runners remain active to preserve the expanded
+architecture check names used by branch protection; missing/invalid flags,
+failed detection and unexpected dependency results fail validation.
+`Shell scripts` and `Probe` retain their names.
+Both `Linux probe glibc 2.34 (arm64)` and `Linux probe glibc 2.34 (x64)` are
+also preserved as inexpensive compatibility gates over the selected Linux
+core builds in both representative and full-matrix modes. The actual producer
+jobs are named `Linux core (arch)`. Their
+gate summaries identify which architectures were checked and which are
+deferred; producer failure or an unexpected skip fails both gates.
+
+Changelog/prose-only diffs skip all tests and builds; only change detection and
+lightweight compatibility status jobs run. CI uses [job conditions](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/how-tos/write-workflows/choose-when-workflows-run/control-jobs-with-conditions)
+to skip build/test jobs rather than the entire workflow, while retaining the
+compatibility runners so expanded required-check names still report.
+
+Release automatically runs reusable CI tests for every platform and both arm64
+and x64 before release packaging begins. This prerequisite runs the complete
+test matrix regardless of changed-path selection; the release's own build jobs
+then package both architectures. It omits duplicate unsigned CI packages. There
+is no nightly workflow. The tradeoff is deliberate: macOS x64, Linux arm64 and
+Windows arm64 regressions can pass routine PR/main checks and be caught by the
+required prerelease tests. The existing completion gate names remain usable by
+branch protection under this representative-architecture policy. Release-only
+linking, app bundle/runtime collection and installer issues introduced by
+ordinary source edits may likewise be caught during release packaging. Every
+release still packages both architectures after its full test prerequisite
+succeeds.
+
+Each `Linux core (arch)` job uses Zig to build the core once, validates
+the glibc floor and uploads that binary. The matching Linux package job and
+selected integration steps download the same core artifact, so packaging and real-core
+tests exercise the validated binary without compiling it again. A GTK-only
+test change skips the core download, real app build, real-core tests and startup
+smoke test. The artifact
+carries a checksum and source, target and version metadata. Prerelease CI
+builds it with the release's resolved version; the Linux release package job
+reuses that validated artifact too. Core artifacts are retained for seven
+days. `probe-version` also flows to the Linux unsigned CI packages so the
+package version matches its downloaded core.
+
+Reusable CI accepts `full-matrix` (both architectures), `force-all` (every
+component), `skip-packages` (omit unsigned CI packaging) and `probe-version`
+(the version embedded in the core, default `0.0.0`). Release supplies all four
+to request full tests without duplicate packages. A manual CI run can request
+the full matrix with unsigned packaging enabled when diagnosing an
+architecture-specific issue.
+
+Swift build caches separate architecture and package/test lane, and include
+Swift, Xcode, SDK and manifest identities. Windows caches separate downloaded
+Cargo sources from compiled dependencies; compiled cache keys include
+architecture, toolchain, dependency manifests and debug/release profile, stay
+stable across ordinary source commits, and exclude Cargo incremental state.
+Dependency-focused caching avoids storing a new copy of large app/test binaries
+for each source revision: workspace products are pruned before the first save,
+and the key includes profile settings rather than the source SHA. Windows tests
+disable dev/test debug symbols to limit linker work and cache size while
+retaining debug assertions and overflow checks. Release builds use the same
+Windows cache setup with their own release profile; test settings do not
+change release builds.
+
+Windows platform, wording/state, GTK and hosting tests use targeted
+`cargo test --no-default-features --features gtk` commands with `--lib` or
+`--test`. The default `production-binaries` feature gates the app, core and
+contract-codegen executables, so these tests avoid Cargo's automatic linking
+of unrelated production binaries. The fake core remains available for the
+integration harness. When packaging is skipped, a separate
+`cargo check --features gtk --bins` keeps all Windows app/core/codegen entry
+points checked with default features enabled without linking their executables.
+Linux's GTK/library-only mode also opts out of default production binaries.
+When Linux integration is selected, it shares one default-feature debug build
+with GTK checks in the same native test job. Ordinary production builds,
+real-core integration and release packaging retain default features.
+`scripts/test_cargo_target_selection.py` guards that target selection.
+
+macOS and Linux Rust caches also separate package and test lanes. Linux's
+GTK/library and real-core steps share the `tests` cache and setup, avoiding
+duplicate GTK builds when both are selected. Parallel package/test jobs save
+their own dependency builds. A new lane can seed itself from the
+previous shared cache, using the complete historical key with read-only saves.
+A marker restored with the lane cache prevents an older shared seed from
+replacing a newer lane cache, including a partial lockfile match. Package
+lanes prune restored debug profiles; macOS core tests and Linux native tests
+prune release profiles. Cache markers live under the runner temporary directory,
+outside the repository.
+New Windows and Swift scopes start cold; restores are an optimization and
+every selected lane still executes its builds and checks.
+
+## CI change selection
+
+`scripts/ci-changes.py` independently selects shell checks, Probe tests, Swift
+tests (`macos`), macOS Rust/npm tests (`macos_core`), macOS packages
+(`macos_package`), Linux GTK/library tests (`linux`), the Zig core build
+(`linux_core`), real-core integration/startup (`linux_integration`), Linux
+packages (`linux_package`), Windows native tests (`windows`) and Windows
+packages (`windows_package`). It uses only Python's standard library and emits
+boolean `key=value` lines suitable for `$GITHUB_OUTPUT`:
+
+```sh
+python3 scripts/ci-changes.py --base "$BASE" --head "$HEAD" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"
+python3 scripts/test_ci_changes.py
+```
+
+The comparison uses `git diff --name-only --no-renames -z`: deleted paths and
+both sides of a rename participate, and spaces or newlines in a filename stay
+intact. Callers using stdin must supply that same NUL-delimited format. A
+successful `--base`/`--head` Git comparison with no changed paths selects no
+lanes, including distinct commits with identical trees. Empty/malformed stdin
+or unavailable history selects every job, since an empty upstream transport
+cannot prove that nothing changed. `--all` always selects every group. No
+changed-path service or third-party filter action is required.
+
+Pull request selection compares the event base with the tested merge commit,
+covering the whole PR diff rather than only the latest commit. A doc-only
+follow-up on a PR that also changes code still selects the lanes required by
+that code.
+
+| Changed input | Selected job groups |
+| --- | --- |
+| `CHANGELOG.md`, reviewed documentation allowlist, documentation PNG screenshots, or `ipad/` only | None |
+| Swift source/tests in known macOS or shared package target directories | Swift checks only |
+| Exact Swift package manifests, macOS plist/entitlements, or macOS app resources | Swift checks and macOS packaging |
+| Generated `macos/Sources/RelayDesktopCore/CoreContract.swift` | Probe regeneration validation and Swift checks |
+| Linux packaging under `linux/` | Shell, Linux GTK/library tests, core, integration and packaging |
+| Windows packaging under `windows/` | Shell, Windows native tests and Windows packaging |
+| `probe/tests/linux_app_gtk.rs` or Rust modules under `probe/tests/linux_app_gtk/` | Linux GTK/library and Windows native tests; no core build or integration |
+| Rust modules under `probe/src/linux_app/ui/` | Linux GTK/library tests, core, integration and Windows native tests |
+| `probe/tests/pi_live_session.rs` | Probe and macOS core tests |
+| `scripts/test-pi-live.sh` | Shell, Probe and macOS core tests |
+| Other Rust modules under `probe/src/` or Rust tests under `probe/tests/` | All native test/core groups, without packaging |
+| Cargo/build inputs, resources, scripts, CI configuration, shared fixtures, assets, global configuration, or unknown paths | All |
+
+The reviewed prose allowlist lives in the script as explicit paths; `.md`
+alone never exempts a file. It includes the reviewed top-level `docs/*.md`
+files, probe and integration READMEs, Windows icon READMEs and the DMG artwork
+prompt. New documents remain unknown until reviewed. `docs/relay-core.md` is
+excluded from that allowlist because contract tests read it, and keeps every
+component selected. Routine `CHANGELOG.md` edits add no tests or builds; in a
+mixed change, the remaining paths determine all selected lanes. `probe/build.rs`
+still reads the release heading and derives development version metadata from it, so
+changelog-only edits defer validation of that input until the next selected
+build or release. Release forces every component and packages the actual
+resolved version, even when only the changelog changed. Shared GTK bridge,
+host and model source retains all native test/core groups because those
+modules also build without GTK on macOS. Changes to this selector
+or its tests run the shell job and every build group. Extend the allowlist only
+after checking consumers and adding a regression test.
+
+The audited GTK harness and its Rust modules select Linux GTK/library and
+Windows native tests without the Zig core or real-core integration steps. Rust
+UI modules under `probe/src/linux_app/ui/` are guarded by the GTK feature and
+also select the Linux core and integration lanes, without scheduling Probe or
+macOS jobs. Shared bridge/host/models remain broader native inputs.
+The audited Pi live-session test and runner script select Probe and macOS core
+tests, with shell checks added for the script. These exceptions apply before
+the broader source/script defaults. Other test helpers retain their existing
+coverage, and combining an exception with core, build or unknown inputs takes
+the union rather than suppressing those inputs.
+
+`macos`, `macos_core` and `macos_package` control Swift tests, Rust/npm tests
+and release packaging independently. Swift tests compile the macOS app entry
+point through the package's test-target dependency. The Swift lane also runs
+`swift test --package-path shared/RelaySessionOverview` so the shared package's
+own test target executes, rather than only building its library as a dependency.
+Known source/test targets select Swift checks alone; exact package manifests,
+plist/entitlements and the app's existing resource scope also select packaging.
+Unreviewed future package targets/build paths default to all groups.
+The macOS completion gate accepts Pi-only changes with app lanes skipped and
+core tests required. The generated
+Swift contract is an output of the Rust generator rather than a Rust/npm input,
+so changing only that file runs Probe's consistency check and Swift validation. A matching Rust
+registry change selects native core tests, including macOS core tests. Unknown paths,
+shared core/dependency/toolchain inputs and every fallback also select
+`macos_core`, so a mixed Swift/core change cannot hide core regressions.
+
+`linux` selects GTK/library steps without requiring a core artifact;
+`linux_core` controls the Zig build; `linux_integration` requires that build and
+selects the real-core and app-startup steps in the same native test job.
+`linux_package` also requires the core artifact. The completion gate validates
+the selected work independently. `windows` and `windows_package` separately
+control native tests and the release build, portable zip and installer smoke
+checks. Ordinary Rust source changes skip all three package flags, while Cargo
+build files, resource/build inputs and unknown paths retain packaging coverage.
+Mixed changes take the union of their selections. The minimal prerequisites
+are `macos_package` → `macos`, `linux_integration`/`linux_package` → `linux_core`,
+and `windows_package` → `windows`. Reviewed docs and validated unchanged Git
+trees select no lanes; unavailable history, empty/malformed stdin and explicit
+`--all` select every group.
+Release forces every component, skips duplicate unsigned CI packages during
+prerelease tests, and then builds the actual release packages as before.

+# Agent instructions
+
+## Keep the macOS app and the GTK app (Linux and Windows) in sync
+
+The macOS app (`macos/`, SwiftUI) is the reference design. The GTK app
+(`agent-relay-desktop` with the probe's `gtk` feature: `probe/src/linux_app`, GTK 4)
+serves both Linux and Windows: it is one program built for each, and it must
+offer the same features, layout and wording as the Mac on both.
+Both apps are thin clients of the same relay core, so nearly every user-facing
+change is UI work on both sides over contract methods that already exist.
+
+When a change touches the user-facing app on one platform, make the matching
+change on the other in the same PR:
+
+| macOS | Linux and Windows |
+|---|---|
+| `macos/Sources/RelayDesktop/WorkspaceShell.swift`, `Navigation.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/shell.rs` |
+| `AgentsView.swift`, `AgentRows.swift`, `RelayModel.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/agents_page.rs`, `ui/relay.rs` |
+| `TeamView.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/team_page.rs` |
+| `MainWindowView.swift` (sessions), `SessionsTable.swift`, `UploadStagesView.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/sessions_page.rs` |
+| `AgentsView.swift` (`MessageSheet`, `ActivitySheet`) | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/messages.rs` |
+| `SettingsView.swift`, `AboutView.swift`, `IncomingModel.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/settings_page.rs` |
+| `SignInView.swift`, `AppModel.swift` (sign-in, links) | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/app.rs` |
+| `MenuPanelView.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/ui/tray.rs` |
+| `AppUpdater.swift`, `RelayDesktopCore/AppUpdate.swift` | `probe/src/linux_app/updates.rs` and About in `ui/settings_page.rs` |
+| `RelayDesktopCore/*` presentation logic (presence, upload states and stages, wording, filters, diagnostics) and `shared/RelaySessionOverview` | `probe/src/linux_app/models/` |
+
+Rules:
+
+- Port behavior and wording, not just layout: user-visible sentences should
+  match the Mac's word for word unless the platform differs (menu bar vs
+  tray, LaunchAgent vs systemd user service vs logon task, DMG vs
+  tarball/`.deb` vs zip).
+- A core method the Mac app starts calling must be called by the GTK app
+  too (and the reverse). Regenerate the Swift contract with
+  `scripts/generate-contract.sh` after changing `probe/src/relay/contract`.
+- When a feature cannot or should not exist on one platform, say so and why
+  in the PR description.
+- Platform-specific modules get a Windows counterpart. Code in
+  `probe/src/linux_app` or the core that touches the operating system
+  (sockets, signals, processes, the background service, the tray, opening
+  links and notifications, the install tree and updates, file modes) keeps
+  the same trait, contract and wording on Windows, behind `cfg(windows)`. A
+  feature that cannot exist on Windows (a harness that is a Unix-only tool)
+  is reported unavailable by the core, not hidden, and the PR says why.
+- Add or update tests on both sides:
+  `swift test --package-path macos` and
+  `cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk`
+  (with `--lib linux_app` for the wording and state). On Windows, run the same
+  in an MSYS2 CLANG64 or CLANGARM64 shell, plus
+  `cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --test linux_app_hosting`;
+  CI runs them on x64 and arm64 (see `windows/README.md`).
+- Update `docs/workspace-layout.md`, `linux/README.md` and `windows/README.md`
+  when the layout or a feature changes.
+
+## Release notes
+
+Every PR that changes what someone using the app or core sees or relies on
+adds a bullet under `## Unreleased` in `CHANGELOG.md`, in the same PR. Write it
+for the person using Agent Relay, in the style of the bullets already there: a
+bold one-line outcome, then what changed and what they do differently, naming
+macOS and Linux where they differ. Build-only, CI-only, test-only and iOS-only
+changes don't need one. The Release workflow refuses to run while
+`## Unreleased` has no bullet, so a missing note blocks the next release.
+
+## Primary buttons
+
+Every blue action must use `AgentRelayPrimaryButtonStyle` on macOS and the
+`primary` CSS class on GTK, including actions inside popovers and dialogs.
+These are the canonical Agent Relay brand button: deep blue, white label, dark
+border, and a tight bottom-left corner in both appearances, without shadow/glow.
+Only sizing may vary at call sites. Do not use `.borderedProminent`, workspace
+accent fills, local primary styles, or per-screen color/corner overrides.
+Change the shared style on both platforms when the brand treatment changes.
+
+## Linux background service behavior
+
+The Linux app starts the `agent-relay.service` systemd user unit only when the
+person enabled it: its `--headless` mode applies the agent-led defaults and
+removes the app's login entry. Never stop, kill or disable that unit as part of
+setup, repair or testing; restart it if it must pick up a change. The same
+holds for the Windows **Agent Relay (<account>)** logon task.

+# Changelog
+
+Write the user-facing changes for each release under `## Unreleased` before
+running the Desktop Release workflow. The workflow copies that section into
+**What's new in this release** and uploads a promoted changelog artifact after
+publishing; land that artifact through a normal pull request. A release whose
+`## Unreleased` section has no bullet stops before building.
+
+## Unreleased
+
+- **Install the Pi extension without following replaced links.** The installer now validates and reads an existing Agent Relay extension through one no-follow file handle before its atomic update, so a swapped symbolic link is refused.
+- **Preview session-history retention controls.** Settings › General › **Session history** shows the planned 7, 30 or 90 day and forever choices, but keeps the control disabled until relayhistory can enforce deletion. Agent Relay does not remove older sessions automatically yet. Same on macOS, Linux and Windows.
+
+- **A simpler sign-in screen.** The logged-out screen on macOS, Linux and Windows now offers **Sign in with Google** without the redundant **Use another account** button. Signing in always opens Google's account chooser instead of silently reusing a saved app or CLI session.
+
+- **History identity checks preserve active database locks.** On macOS and Linux, checking the local history file no longer releases SQLite locks held by another connection in the app or collector. New stores still use private file permissions. Windows keeps its existing file identity checks.
+
+- **Upload status stays responsive as local history grows.** On macOS, Linux and Windows, upload counters use transactional totals, delivery reuses its database connections, and unchanged status and session lists reuse shared snapshots.
+
+- **The desktop app no longer takes the `agent-relay` command name.** On Linux and Windows the GTK launcher is now `agent-relay-desktop` (`agent-relay-desktop.exe` on Windows), including app shortcuts, updates, launch at login and the Windows background task. `--headless` and `--install-launcher` keep working under the new name, while `agent-relay` remains available for the command-line tool. Existing Linux tarball and Windows installs need one manual upgrade to this release because their old in-app updater requires the former filename: install the new `.deb` or unpack the new Linux tarball, or run the new Windows Setup program. In-app updates resume afterward. macOS is unaffected.
+- **Muse access stays inside sessions Agent Relay starts.** On macOS and Linux, Agent Relay no longer discovers or messages Muse sessions opened in a terminal or hosted by another app. Relay-owned Muse spawns keep their existing sandbox, follow-up messaging and lifecycle behavior; Muse remains unavailable on Windows.
+- **Cursor Cloud agents join Agent Relay without the local `cursor-agent` CLI.** Agents can discover models, cached repositories and environments, list existing agents and runs, start one with an idempotency key, inject follow-ups while it works, read or cancel run results, and archive or restore it through the shared core on macOS, Linux and Windows. Agent Relay Cloud keeps the Cursor API key and registers each hosted agent as `cursor-cloud`, so messages become Cursor follow-ups and never expose credentials to the desktop or agent sandbox.
+
+- **Community builds no longer send analytics to Agent Relay's PostHog project.** Official macOS, Linux and Windows releases still support the same opt-out analytics, but their ingestion configuration now comes from protected release secrets instead of the source tree. Forks, local builds and tests contain no project configuration and send nothing.
+
+- **Public examples use generic people and computer names.** Documentation and the trusted-senders placeholder on macOS, Linux and Windows no longer expose names from Agent Relay's internal development environment.
+
+- **The Linux headless installer now downloads from the public releases page.** Install or update the core on a server with `curl -fsSL https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash`; the old source-repository link no longer works once the source moves.
+
+- **Every download now includes the Apache 2.0 license.** The macOS app, the Linux tarball and `.deb`, the Windows zip and Setup program, and the standalone core archives ship `LICENSE` and the agent icons' license.
+
+## v2026.10.60
+
+- **Continue an open Claude conversation from your phone, experimentally.** Enable **Continue Claude from mobile (Experimental)** once in Relay Settings on macOS or Linux. Windows shows the setting as unavailable until its native connection is verified. Your messages reach a supported running Claude session as native user turns, preserving its conversation and permissions; reading it sends nothing. Tool prompts go only to the signed-in machine owner for one-action approval. Claude stays in its original session, and mobile shows connecting, queued or failed status without treating a queued message as delivered.
+
+- **macOS keeps the warning when a chat action is interrupted by a service restart.** A disconnect arriving after the action fails no longer clears its warning; your restored draft stays available so you can check whether the action completed before retrying.
+
+- **Agent lists keep the native session title across devices.** macOS, Linux and Windows publish existing titles and later renames to the roster, so iPhone, iPad and other clients can show them before a generated summary exists. OpenClaw and Hermes gateway agents no longer link their agent IDs to unrelated session history. Title refreshes keep ended sessions idle.
+
+- **Peer updates no longer ask agents to reapprove work you already authorized.** On macOS, Linux and Windows, Relay's message instructions let agents continue within the receiving session's existing scope and tool permissions. Requests outside that scope still need your approval; another agent cannot grant it on your behalf, and Claude's own peer-message restrictions still apply.
+
+## v2026.10.59
+
+- **Uploads resume within minutes after the history service recovers.** When session uploads kept failing because the service was down, Agent Relay waited longer and longer between tries, up to about twenty minutes after a long outage, so uploads stayed idle well after the service was back. It now waits at most about five minutes between tries after a server error or a dropped connection, and **Retry uploads** tries again at once instead of doing nothing while uploads wait out such a failure. A rate limit from the service is still honored: Retry leaves that wait alone. Uploads that keep failing this way now offer **Retry uploads** in the upload stage, and a wait an older version stored is shortened when Agent Relay updates. Same on macOS, Linux and Windows.
+
+- **"Reconnecting to its background service" no longer stays on screen.** If **Retry uploads** or **Compact now** could not reach Agent Relay's background service, the message under the button stayed until you clicked again, even after the service was back. It now clears as soon as the service answers, and the retry or compaction, which never reached the service, is sent once on its own. Errors from an action the service did receive stay until your next action, as before. Same on macOS, Linux and Windows.
+
+- **Diagnostics cannot indefinitely delay app updates.** On macOS, Linux and Windows, update diagnostics calls that must finish before proceeding have a three-second deadline. The GTK window stays responsive while that call finishes, and an unresponsive core cannot hold up the restart.
+
+- **Optional diagnostics cover more desktop activity.** When Share diagnostics is enabled, macOS, Linux and Windows report agent registration, messaging, navigation, searches and update handoffs with the same event schema. Search text, message contents, names and session IDs stay private. Following a transcript in the background does not count as opening it again.
+
+## v2026.10.58
+
+- **Failed Claude Code delivery changes keep their error visible.** On macOS, Linux and Windows, refreshing the approval state after a refused change no longer hides why it failed. A later explicit refresh still clears a recovered error.
+- **Agent Relay spends less CPU keeping sessions up to date.** On macOS, unchanged updates reuse the session list and its search data, and upload indicators animate without rebuilding the table. On macOS, Linux and Windows, a session-file change scans the affected provider instead of every provider; periodic full scans still discover new roots and recover missed changes.
+- **Every switch and button answers at once.** Changing the upload policy, pausing or resuming, retrying or compacting uploads, a core setting's switch, renaming an agent or putting a session on the relay under a name, sending a message (from the composer, under a spawned agent or as an agent's test message), sharing a Codex thread or approving a held message, allowing or restricting Claude Code delivery, releasing a fleet worker, dismissing a seat or revoking a grant, and starting at login on Linux and Windows now show the change the moment you make it, the way the upload and messaging switches already did: the policy row moves and stays usable with a small spinner, the message appears in the conversation as *Sending…*, the released worker reads *Released*, and so on. If Agent Relay cannot make the change, the control goes back to what the core reports and the reason shows beside it; clicking again while a change is still saving makes the last click win. Logging out on macOS now shows *Disconnecting this computer…* until the account is gone, and a second sign-in click while the first is starting does nothing, as on Linux and Windows.
+- **A column edge stops being highlighted once you finish resizing.** Dragging the edge of a sessions-table column used to leave that edge highlighted until something else took focus. It now clears as soon as you let go, cancel with Escape or double-click to reset the width. Same on macOS and Linux.
+- **Windows: Upload session works while uploads are running.** Since the first Windows release, turning on **Upload session** in an open session, or **Upload** for selected rows, did nothing and showed no error, and the upload status could not be read, whenever the uploader was running: Windows reports a lock another process holds differently from Linux and macOS, and the app took the running uploader's own lock for a failure. The switch now uploads the session and the Upload column reports its progress, as on Linux and macOS. Nothing changes on macOS or Linux.
+
+- **Relay core failures leave a local diagnostic log.** On macOS, Connect failures and other core diagnostics are saved in `~/Library/Logs/Agent Relay/core.log`, even when the background service has no terminal. Agent Relay Dev uses its own log folder. Linux and Windows keep the same log in the app data directory's `logs` folder; Linux also keeps its systemd journal output. Logs redact credentials and rotate automatically at 1 MiB, keeping three backups.
+
+## v2026.10.57
+
+- **Opening a newer Agent Relay replaces the one still running.** On Linux and Windows, starting a later version from the Start menu, the app menu or a link while an older one sat in the tray used to hand the launch to the old version, so you stayed on it without knowing, for instance after an update that installed but could not restart. The running app now quits and the newer one opens in its place with what you launched, also after a `.deb` upgrade over a running app. On Windows, an update whose background-service task is off no longer fails when that task cannot be moved: the new version sets it up on its own start. Nothing changes on macOS, which has its own single-window and update handling.
+
+## v2026.10.56
+
+- **Windows: the background service's logon task is set up again.** Since the first Windows release, Settings › **Background service** said *Not installed* on every per-user install, because the app kept its task definition open while handing it to Task Scheduler, which refused to read it. The app now registers the **Agent Relay (<your account>)** task, turned off, on its next start, and the switch works as on Linux.
+- **Rename a session right in its header.** On macOS, Linux and Windows, title editing now lives only in the open session. A clear Rename button turns the title into editable text without a boxed field; Enter or Done saves, Escape cancels, and clicking away saves after a short delay. The sparkle still fills in the saved pipeline title. The sessions table keeps its simple click-to-open behavior. Reconnecting during the save delay keeps your unsaved draft available.
+- **OpenCode, Muse and Devin sessions on the relay show as on the relay.** Opening one of these sessions' transcript showed it as Offline with "Start session to receive messages." even while it was receiving messages, and the session could appear twice in the list. The transcript now shows the session's real messaging state and switch, and a session listed both as a transcript and as a relay session is one row. One of these sessions you put on the relay is now uploaded, like Codex, Claude and Grok sessions. Same on macOS and Linux.
+
+## v2026.10.55
+
+- **A Grok session on the relay shows as on the relay, under Grok's own title.** Opening a running Grok session's transcript used to show it as Offline with "Start session to receive messages." even while it was receiving messages, and named it after the `<user_info>` block Grok adds before your first prompt. The transcript now shows the session's real messaging state and switch, and the session is named by the title Grok generated for it. A Grok session you put on the relay is now uploaded, like Codex and Claude sessions. Same on macOS and Linux.
+- **Agent Relay checks your agents with Cloud less often, and backs off when Cloud is busy.** Your computer sent its full agent list to Cloud every minute, and Cloud checked each agent with Agent Relay every time, even when nothing had changed. It now sends the list when an agent is added or removed, after you sign in again, and otherwise every 30 minutes. When Cloud can't check agents right now, the computer waits before trying again instead of retrying every minute. On macOS and Linux.
+- **Codex terminal sessions receive messages without Node on the service PATH.** On macOS and Linux, Agent Relay finds the native CLI bundled with npm installations, including Homebrew and version-managed installs. macOS also recognizes the newer Codex app CLI location, avoiding false “command line is not installed” failures for sessions in terminals such as cmux.
+- **Install Agent Relay on Windows with a double-click.** Download **AgentRelay-Windows-x64-Setup.exe** or **AgentRelay-Windows-arm64-Setup.exe** and open it: it installs for your account without asking for administrator rights or a folder, adds Agent Relay to the Start menu (and the desktop, if you tick it), registers `agentrelay://` links and starts the app. Running a newer installer upgrades in place, and in-app updates keep working as before. Uninstall from **Settings › Apps › Installed apps**: it removes every installed version, the shortcuts, the link handler, launch at login and the background-service task, and keeps your sign-in and data. The installer is not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen shows *Windows protected your PC* the first time: choose **More info** › **Run anyway**. The zip stays available as the portable alternative.
+
+## v2026.10.54
+
+- **Starting Agent Relay again brings back the window you have open.** Launching it a second time, from the Start menu, the app menu, a terminal or an `agentrelay://` link, used to leave a process running with no window. Now that launch hands its link or `--background` to the running app and exits: the window comes forward with the link opened, and you still have one tray icon. On Linux and Windows.
+- **The Linux and Windows window looks like the Mac's.** The logo and the search field's magnifier no longer light up under the pointer, the header runs edge to edge in one color with borderless saved-views and Table display icons, and the status bar, settings buttons and page titles use the Mac's heights and spacing. Selecting sessions now tints the rows lightly instead of filling them solid, the selection bar is a quiet card with a plain **Hide** button, checkboxes use the Agent Relay blue, and opening the avatar menu no longer selects your email address. Nothing changes on macOS.
+- **Agent Relay runs on Windows.** Download **AgentRelay-Windows-x64.zip** or **AgentRelay-Windows-arm64.zip** from the release, unpack it under `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>` and start `agent-relay.exe`: you get the same window as on Linux and the Mac (sessions, Agents, Team, Messages, Settings, sign-in) and a tray icon with the same menu, and it adds itself to the Start menu and handles `agentrelay://` links. Settings › **Background service** runs Agent Relay as a logon task, so your agents stay connected while the app is closed, without administrator rights; updates download the verified zip and switch over in place. Claude Code and Codex sessions list, upload, receive messages and spawn as on the other platforms; Muse, Devin, Grok CLI, Hermes, OpenClaw, OpenCode existing-session injection and Pi need Unix-only tools and show as unavailable on Windows. The bare core ships as `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip`. Releases are not code-signed yet, so Smart App Control must be off and SmartScreen asks once. The Windows placeholder is gone.
+- **Qwen Code, Kimi Code and Codebuddy Code sessions are tracked and uploaded.** Agent Relay now uses RelayHistory 0.50.1, which reads those three harnesses' native session files like Claude Code and Codex ones, subject to your session-sharing setting, and runs natively on Windows Arm PCs. Its relay tools also move on to the next Agent Relay socket when a Windows one is busy instead of reporting that the desktop is not running. On macOS, Linux and Windows.
+
+## v2026.10.53
+
+- **Edit session titles without leaving Agent Relay.** On macOS and Linux, hover a title and click its pencil to edit it. The sparkle button fills in the pipeline’s saved title, preloaded when available; Enter saves and Escape cancels. Titles update immediately and roll back with an error if the original harness cannot save them. Unsupported sessions explain why editing is unavailable.
+- **Session titles can be changed in their original harness through Agent Relay’s core.** Native title updates now support Codex, local Claude Code and Devin sessions, connected OpenCode and Grok sessions, Pi with the refreshed Relay extension, and local Hermes and OpenClaw conversations. Capability checks explain unavailable routes; a rename never sends an agent prompt or changes the Relay agent’s address.
+
+- **Spawns no longer fail when Agent Relay is slow to register the agent.** When Agent Relay Cloud was under load, it could take longer than 10 seconds to register a spawned agent, and the spawn failed with "Agent Relay did not register the agent in time" even though the agent had been registered. The computer now waits up to 30 seconds more for that answer and launches the agent when it arrives. On macOS and Linux.
+- **Relay Connect retries overloaded sends without duplicating them.** Every Connect message now carries a fresh idempotency key, so Relay can retry a temporary server failure and still accept it only once. If the final outcome is unknown, the socket error returns the key to use for an exact retry.
+- **Pi messages keep their order and channel answers return.** On macOS and Linux, messages queued while Pi is busy now run in arrival order, and an answer to subscribed channel posts returns to the last post automatically. Retries retain that original reply target even if a post leaves the queue. Extension installation failures stay visible in the app's status and Settings instead of leaving an empty session list without an explanation. Run `/reload` in Pi to load the updated extension, then turn its Relay registration off and on again.
+- **Relay agent names describe their work.** New automatic names use the harness, repository, and up to two meaningful words from the session title, such as `claude-cloud-plan-support`, instead of a random-looking suffix. Duplicate names get a number; sessions without a task title use `session`. Existing and explicitly chosen names stay unchanged. Shared by macOS, Linux and headless mode.
+- **Start Replicas agents through Agent Relay Cloud.** Once an owner connects Replicas in Cloud, agents can discover environments, start a replica, check its Relay connection, and release it through the shared core on macOS and Linux. Cloud owns delivery and credentials; it does not need a bridge running on your computer.
+- **Antigravity and Oh My Pi sessions are tracked and uploaded.** RelayHistory 0.49.0 also reads Antigravity's App, CLI and IDE transcripts and Oh My Pi's sessions, like Claude Code, Codex and Pi ones, subject to your session-sharing setting. Oh My Pi sessions kept beside Pi's are not listed twice. On macOS and Linux.
+- **OpenClaw no longer lists a session for every heartbeat.** Each OpenClaw heartbeat or cron run used to show up as its own session, so a single cron job could fill the list with dozens of near-empty rows. Agent Relay now uses RelayHistory 0.49.0, which shows each OpenClaw conversation once, as OpenClaw's own session list does: every run of a cron job, and every reset of a chat, is part of one session, and heartbeat check-ins are no longer counted as your prompts. OpenClaw sessions already uploaded are re-listed under their conversation the next time history syncs, and the old per-run copies are removed from the cloud. Your choices carry over to the conversation. If you deleted any of its runs from the cloud, it is not uploaded. If you excluded any of its runs, it is not uploaded either, unless you share “Only sessions I choose” and chose another of its runs. On macOS and Linux.
+
+## v2026.10.52
+
+- **Pi messages keep their order and channel answers return.** On macOS and Linux, messages queued while Pi is busy now run in arrival order, and an answer to subscribed channel posts returns to the last post automatically. Retries retain that original reply target even if a post leaves the queue. Extension installation failures stay visible in the app's status and Settings instead of leaving an empty session list without an explanation. Run `/reload` in Pi to load the updated extension, then turn its Relay registration off and on again.
+- **New Relay Connect rooms last at most 7 days.** `agent-relay-probe connect create --expires-in-minutes` refuses more than 10,080 minutes for a new room, before it asks you to sign in, matching Agent Relay Cloud. A host can still rejoin a longer room an earlier version created by repeating its original command. On macOS and Linux.
+- **Spawned agents have no limit by default.** A computer that accepts spawns used to take at most 12 agents at a time unless you raised it. Now there's no limit unless you set one: Settings › **Max spawned agents** is empty by default, and a number there caps it as before. If you never changed the old default of 12, it becomes no limit; a cap you saved yourself stays as it is. Agent Relay Cloud places agents on computers without a limit by how busy they are. On macOS and Linux.
+- **Each count in the menu bar opens exactly the sessions it counts.** Choosing **Receiving messages**, **Local only**, **Uploaded** or **Not uploaded** opens the session list searched for those sessions (`is:active is:on-relay`, `is:active is:off-relay`, `upload:uploaded`, `-upload:uploaded`), and the count is that same search, so the numbers match. **All sessions** replaces **Open Agent Relay**, and the sections are now **Messages** and **Uploads**, since every count is of sessions. On macOS and Linux.
+- **Problems no longer push a banner into the menu.** When something stops messages or uploads, the menu-bar icon turns orange and so does the dot beside **Messages** or **Uploads**; hover the dot to read what's wrong, or click it to open Diagnostics with the full details. The menu no longer jumps away from the menu bar when a warning clears. On Linux the tray icon turns orange and **⚠ Needs attention** opens Diagnostics.
+- **Message an already-running Pi session.** On macOS and Linux, Agent Relay installs a Pi extension; run `/reload` once in your existing Pi session, then enable **Receives messages**. Messages wait for Pi to be idle, and completed answers return through Relay. Pi needs no upgrade or restart.
+
+- **Claude Code cloud sessions are now a setting you turn on, so macOS no longer asks for your Keychain out of nowhere.** Uploading your claude.ai cloud sessions needs Claude Code's sign-in, which on a Mac is in your Keychain, and the sessions helper used to raise macOS's "wants to use your confidential information" prompt from the background every few minutes. Settings → Relay → *Claude Code folders* now has **Claude Code cloud sessions**, off by default. When you turn it on, macOS asks once, next to a line explaining why; choose **Always Allow** and uploads continue in the background without asking again. Background uploads never show the prompt. Cloud sessions you uploaded before stay uploaded; new ones wait until you turn this on. On macOS and Linux (Linux reads the sign-in from Claude Code's file and never prompts).
+- **New installs upload only the sessions you select by default.** The probe setup now offers selected sessions first, matching the macOS and Linux apps. Initial history indexing processes the last 24 hours first, then the rest of the week, then older sessions, so recent work is available sooner.
+- **The Table display button above the sessions table is a plain columns icon.** The gear badge is gone on macOS and Linux.
+
+
+## v2026.10.51
+
+- **The menu-bar panel and Linux tray are an at-a-glance summary.** Instead of a list of recent sessions, the menu shows how many of this computer's agents are **Receiving messages** and how many are **Local only**, and how many sessions are **Uploaded** and **Not uploaded**; each count opens its page in the app. On the Mac the counts are badges, blue while live and muted otherwise, and the upload status is a dot beside Sessions that says what it means on hover. **Open Agent Relay**, **Settings…** and **Quit Agent Relay** sit at the bottom.
+- **Uploads and messages use your Agent Relay account's workspace, and only that.** Agent Relay no longer reads a workspace key from `RELAY_WORKSPACE_KEY`, `RELAY_API_KEY`, the `agent-relay` CLI's files or a key pasted into the app, so a stale or over-quota key elsewhere on the computer can't send your agents to another workspace. Settings › Messages shows **Workspace from your Agent Relay account**; switch workspaces from the account menu. The paste-a-key sheet and the workspace-mismatch notice are gone on macOS and Linux. A key you pasted before is dropped; agents registered in another workspace stay there until you turn them off and on again.
+- **Agent Relay starts its background service again on Macs where macOS lost track of it.** On some Macs, macOS reported the service enabled while it could not find the helper inside the app and kept failing to start it, so the app waited on the core forever. Agent Relay now detects that and registers the service by its full path instead, asking for Login Items approval if macOS needs it. The app must run from **Applications** (or `~/Applications`); opened from the disk image or another copy, it says to move it there first.
+- **Agent Relay warns when a Claude Code session stops reading its messages.** Claude Code reads messages delivered to a terminal session only when its current turn ends, so a session whose turn is stuck kept collecting messages while it still looked active. Agent Relay now watches the session's transcript, and when a delivered message has sat unread with no progress for 10 minutes it adds a warning to Activity and marks the agent stalled (with how many messages wait and for how long) in the core's `agents.list` and in `GET /agents` on the session socket. The warning clears once the session reads them. Set `RELAY_DESKTOP_CLAUDE_INBOX_STALL_SECS` to change the 10 minutes. Delivery itself is unchanged: messages are never resent.
+
+## v2026.10.50
+
+- **Give your OpenClaw agents Agent Relay's tools in one click.** While OpenClaw is on, Settings → **Agent Relay tools** has **Connect**: Agent Relay adds its hosted MCP to `openclaw.json` (or reuses one already there) and opens its consent page in your browser, where you pick a workspace and agent name and click Approve, as for Grok Bot and ChatGPT. Your OpenClaw agents can then list agents on the relay, message them and spawn new ones, with no terminal or config editing. Messages from people who aren't trusted senders still never get these tools. On macOS and Linux.
+- **Session uploads no longer stop while macOS waits to allow access to Claude Code's sign-in.** On a Mac where Claude Code keeps its claude.ai sign-in in the Keychain, the sessions helper waited for the answer to macOS's "allow access" prompt before doing anything else, so when nobody answered it (a headless Mac, or nobody at the screen) the collector stayed on **Scanning catalog…** and no session was uploaded, for hours. The helper now waits a few seconds at most: until the prompt is answered, Claude Code cloud sessions are skipped ("Waiting for Keychain access to Claude Code's sign-in") and every other session uploads as usual, without a second prompt. Once you allow access, cloud sessions are picked up on the next pass; if you deny it, the helper does not ask again for an hour.
+- **OpenClaw no longer needs upgrading to join the relay.** Agent Relay now works with every OpenClaw from 2026.3.13 on, choosing what it sends from what the Gateway reports, so an older Gateway no longer refuses the connection or a message. Every sender still gets a session of its own, and an agent's answer still goes back to that sender only, with no duplicate turns. OpenClaw older than 2026.8.1 cannot limit relay sessions, so on those versions anyone on the relay who messages your agents gets a session with the agent's usual tools; Settings → **OpenClaw agents** says so on macOS and Linux, and updating OpenClaw to 2026.8.1 or later makes those sessions answer-only.
+- **A relay message is no longer sent to OpenClaw twice.** On every released OpenClaw up to 2026.10.4, Agent Relay's check of a sender's OpenClaw session was refused, so a retried delivery could start a second turn and a new message could land while the agent was still answering the previous one. The check now asks only for what every OpenClaw accepts.
+- **OpenClaw sessions are tracked and uploaded.** Agent Relay now uses RelayHistory 0.47.0, which reads every OpenClaw agent's sessions (main, Telegram, relay, cron and subagent chats) like Claude Code, Codex and Hermes ones, subject to your session-sharing setting. It works on every OpenClaw from 2026.3, including the JSONL session store that versions before 2026.8.1 use, and a session OpenClaw later imports into its database is not uploaded twice.
+- **Agent Relay no longer offers a Claude Desktop handoff that Claude Code will refuse.** **Open in Claude** ran `claude --desktop --resume`, which Claude Code refuses for a session another process is already running ("Session … is open in another terminal. Run /desktop there instead.") — and the sessions at the top of the list are running ones, so it failed nearly every time it was clicked. Agent Relay now reads what holds each Claude Code session and offers only what works: a session you are typing in keeps **Open in Terminal**, with a note to run `/desktop` in that terminal to continue it in Claude; a session a headless process holds has no open action, with a note to run `claude agents` to find it. **Open in Claude** comes back once nothing holds the session. On Linux, where Claude Code has no desktop handoff, the headless session is the one that changes.
+
+## v2026.10.49
+
+- **OpenClaw and Hermes agents join the relay.** Where OpenClaw runs on this computer, Agent Relay lists each agent of its Gateway (**OpenClaw · <name>**), and where Hermes has a `relay` profile, it lists **Hermes (relay)**. Messages to them land in a session of their own for each sender, never in your main chat or channels, and the agent's answer goes back to the sender automatically. Relay sessions are answer-only: OpenClaw's read-only mode, with slash commands treated as text, and a Hermes profile with no tools. Settings → **OpenClaw agents** and **Hermes** turn each off, and **Trusted senders** lists relay names whose messages reach your own OpenClaw and Hermes instead, with their memory and tools. OpenClaw's own tools can now use the relay too (list agents, send, reply).
+
+## v2026.10.48
+
+- **A renamed agent's previous name keeps working for a day.** When a session is renamed again, the name it replaces is hidden from rosters and never used to send, but still forwards messages to the session for 24 hours, so a late reply arrives. Renaming back to it within that time takes it up again, and every name is released when the agent leaves the relay. The name the session was registered with still forwards for as long as it is on the relay. The rename message on macOS and Linux says so.
+- **Agent Relay no longer floods Relaycast when more than 20 sessions are waiting to join.** v2026.10.47 rewrote every agent's Relaycast metadata about every 45 seconds once more sessions were held back by auto-activation than its journal keeps, which could use up a workspace's plan and bring back **Agent Relay plan limit reached**. The journal now stays the same while the same sessions are blocked, and is republished only when which sessions are blocked, or why, changes. On macOS and Linux the plan-limit and capacity notices also ignore a limit hit in a Relay Connect room, which is that room's own workspace.
+- **Cloud identity sync no longer retries an unchanged refusal every minute.** Native spawned agents stay under their audited Cloud spawn identity instead of being submitted as desktop sessions, and another permanent identity refusal is reported once; a new sign-in or changed account or identity set retries immediately. The macOS and Linux status bars now say “Agents couldn't link to Cloud” instead of the generic “Cloud request failed.”
+
+## v2026.10.47
+
+- **Agent Relay eases off when Relaycast's database is overloaded.** A `503 database_overloaded` answer now pauses that workspace's background heartbeats, settlements and queue reads for the Retry-After it names, backing off further while it continues, instead of trying the next agent 100 ms later. On Agent Relay's hosted service, agents with a live push connection also send their presence heartbeat every 2 minutes instead of every 30 seconds; they still show as active.
+
+## v2026.10.46
+
+- **Grok Bot sessions open again.** Agent Relay now uses RelayHistory 0.45.2, so opening a Grok Bot session no longer fails with "Probe could not finish" when the app records an entry, role or roster shape RelayHistory does not map; those entries are skipped or kept as context and the rest of the transcript shows.
+
+## v2026.10.45
+
+- **New agents can join #general.** **Settings › Relay › New agents join #general** (macOS and Linux) puts each agent registered from then on in #general, so its posts reach the agent as turns. It is off by default, which keeps agents reached by direct message; agents already on the relay keep the channels they are in.
+- **Agents can read and change Agent Relay's settings.** From inside a session, `GET /settings` on the session socket lists every setting the app's Settings shows (its type, value and what it does), and `PATCH /settings` changes them; `agent-relay-probe relay settings` does the same. Every change an agent makes is recorded with its name, the time and the value before and after, listed under **Settings › Relay › Changed by agents**, and written to the activity log.
+- **A headless Linux core links its agents to Agent Relay Cloud on its own.** A computer attached by setup, without signing in through the app, never saved its workspace binding, so its agents never reached Cloud and a hosted Agent Relay MCP's `join_relay` could not link them ("That desktop identity is not synced…"). The core now binds the workspace itself with the Cloud session the computer already has. This app's own kept session is renewed for it when needed; the Agent Relay CLI's sign-in is only read, never renewed or rewritten, and an expired one gets "sign in again" guidance. A session borrowed from the environment or the CLI is used only once Agent Relay Cloud confirms it belongs to the person this computer is signed in as, so another person's sign-in never carries this computer's agents. `GET /setup/status` reports `cloud_identity_sync` (`ready`, `sync_failed`, `no_binding`, `no_session`, `cli_session_expired` or `session_mismatch`), and the service log says when agents cannot reach Cloud and how to fix it.
+- **Choose who may spawn agents on this computer.** Agent Relay now claims this computer's spawn node for you in Agent Relay Cloud, so agents can pick it as a place to spawn. **Settings › Spawned agents** shows whether the claim went through, with **Retry** if it failed, and adds **Allow teammates to spawn here** (off by default: only you can start agents here; on: workspace owners and admins can too). A computer whose node another account already claimed takes no spawns and says so.
+- **Spawned agents survive more failures.** A spawn whose registration answer was lost is found again by its invocation and settled instead of left behind, and a node's spawn results are sent again after a restart until Relaycast takes them. A spawn still reserved after a restart holds one place, not two, and a Grok launch whose leader disappears fails instead of hanging.
+- **Taking over a spawned agent on Linux stays with that agent.** **Interrupt Now** and any take-over error stay with the session that started the take-over, even after you switch to another transcript.
+- **Relay messages are not repeated after a refused Codex turn.** When Codex refuses a turn for channel posts it already holds, Agent Relay waits instead of delivering them again; a Grok agent keeps its slot when its process can't be looked up.
+- **The Linux installer keeps a core it can roll back to.** Moving from the in-app updater's layout keeps that core under `versions/`, so `install.sh --rollback` can return to it.
+- **The relay messages setting says what it changes.** **Show relay messages in agent chats** is now **Show me relay messages in full**: it only changes what you see. The agent gets every relay message in full either way.
+
+## v2026.10.44
+
+- **Agents keep their Cloud link after updating from v2026.10.42 or earlier.** v2026.10.43 stopped syncing every agent registered before it, so a hosted Agent Relay MCP's `join_relay` could no longer link those sessions ("That desktop identity is not synced…"). Those agents sync again; an agent recorded for a different person or workspace still stays on this computer, and Cloud checks each agent's owner itself. A failed identity sync is now reported in the activity log and the service log, with its HTTP status, instead of passing silently.
+- **Large Codex histories recover in smaller batches.** Agent Relay now uses RelayHistory 0.45.1, which recovers at most 50 recent Codex threads per pass and resumes the backlog newest-first, so a large SQLite backlog no longer holds up other session providers. Recovery defaults to the last 30 days and continues across later capture passes.
+
+## v2026.10.43
+
+- **Agents can be spawned on this computer.** Agent Relay offers this computer to your workspace as a place to start Codex, Claude, OpenCode, Grok, Muse and Devin agents through native adapters: Codex uses its app-server, Claude uses stream-json, and the other harnesses use their own persistent server, leader, PTY or ACP session. This is on by default; turn it off with **Settings › Spawned agents › Accept spawns from Agent Relay**. Spawned agents are addressed `name@<computer>-desktop`, receive and send messages through Agent Relay like your other sessions, keep running when the app updates or restarts, and end when they are released (a Codex agent's thread is archived). Access controls are per harness: Codex, Claude, OpenCode and Grok default to full access, while Muse and Devin default to sandboxed or edit-only operation. Harnesses may load your own MCP servers and connectors; Muse and Devin also receive a launch-scoped Relay send tool. Up to 12 may run at once unless you choose another number; a spawn that does not fit fails at once with the reason instead of waiting. On Linux each spawned agent runs in a systemd scope of its own, so restarting `agent-relay.service` leaves it running.
+- **Muse and Devin can receive follow-ups and reply from their sandbox.** Native spawns use a persistent, recoverable session and a launch-scoped Relay send tool. Devin can be detected from its installed Mac app; sign in with its CLI before spawning. The six native adapters are available through the desktop; Cloud's hosted spawn MCP still needs its own schema update beyond Codex and Claude.
+- **Grok agents can be spawned too.** Where Grok CLI 1.0.46 or later is installed, Agent Relay can start Grok agents here: each runs on a Grok leader of its own, keeps running when the app updates or restarts, takes later messages through that leader, and ends when it is released. It uses your own Grok configuration and MCP servers and runs with `--always-approve`; turn off **Grok: full access** to keep it in Grok's workspace sandbox, which lets it write only in its folder. An older Grok is not offered, and a spawn there says to run `grok update`.
+- **Devin's hooks are offered, not added on their own.** Where Devin has run and Agent Relay's hooks are not in `~/.config/devin/config.json`, Sessions shows a **Devin found** card on macOS and Linux: **Turn On** adds the hooks so the Devin sessions you open appear on the relay and can be messaged, and **Not now** hides the card for good. Agent Relay no longer adds them without asking; hooks already in place stay, and **Settings › Devin sessions** still turns them on or off.
+- **One command installs or updates the Linux core.** `linux/install.sh` installs the GTK-free core for the current user as `agent-relay.service`, or updates an existing install. It checks the download against the release's checksum, keeps three versions, and switches back to the previous one if the new core does not come up; `--rollback` and `--dry-run` are available. The `.deb` is left to apt.
+- **Relay messages are hidden from Codex app chats.** Messages from other agents no longer appear in your Codex app chat: the agent still reads each one and can reply, and the chat shows only the agent's own work. This works whether the chat is open in a Codex app window or not. To see relay messages in full again, turn on **Settings → Relay → Show relay messages in agent chats** on macOS or Linux.
+- **Codex app agents answer relay messages without asking you first.** A relay message no longer reads to Codex like an instruction slipped in under your name, so the agent replies to the sending agent directly. Anything else a peer agent asks for still needs your OK.
+- **Claude desktop app chats join the relay on their own.** A Code chat in Claude's desktop app is now put on the relay automatically, like a terminal Claude Code session, instead of waiting to be turned on in the Agents tab. A chat with no project is named after its title (for example `claude-ping-…`) rather than its generated scratch folder. Claude cloud sessions stay opt-in.
+- **Relay messages stay out of terminal agents' way too.** A terminal Codex or Claude Code session only accepts visible text, so instead of the whole message it now gets two short lines: who sent it, and a `relay read <ref>` command the agent runs to read the message and reply. Messages Claude Code holds for your approval, Relay Connect messages, and sessions Agent Relay cannot identify still show in full. Turning on **Show relay messages in agent chats** shows every message in full.
+- **A plain terminal Codex hides relay messages completely.** A `codex` session started without `-c` options runs on Codex's shared background server, so between turns it now gets relay messages the way a Codex app chat does: the terminal shows only the agent's answer, with no pointer. A busy session, or one started with `-c` options, still gets the two-line pointer.
+- **One relay name per session.** Renaming a session, or a session registering under a name of its own, now replaces its old name instead of adding a second one: rosters show only the new name, and replies, messages, channel posts and automatic answers all go out under it. Messages sent to the original name still arrive. Renaming on macOS and Linux says so.
+
+## v2026.10.42
+
+- **Codex app threads answer relay messages that arrive mid-task.** A message sent to a Codex app thread while it was busy was folded into the running task, and the agent often never replied. On macOS and Linux, Agent Relay now holds the message until the task finishes, then delivers each one as its own turn, in the order sent. Terminal Codex sessions keep Codex's own queue.
+- **Grok Bot conversations appear in session history.** Agent Relay now reads the Grok Bot desktop app's local transcript store, so each bot's recent conversation (the app keeps roughly the last 200 entries or 7 days per bot) shows up alongside other sessions on macOS and Linux. Older history that the app has already dropped is not recovered.
+- **Codex sessions survive rollout cleanup.** When Codex removes a session's rollout file, Agent Relay recovers the thread from Codex's own local SQLite history, so pruned sessions keep their assistant replies, commands and file changes instead of shrinking to the prompts alone.
+
+## v2026.10.41
+
+- **Heartbeats no longer show as Unavailable.** Relaycast accepts each agent heartbeat with an empty answer, which the request log wrongly reported as "Response missing data field". Agents were never actually offline; heartbeats now show as succeeded.
+- **The capacity notice follows Relaycast's answer.** When Relaycast says a busy workspace can raise its capacity by upgrading, **Workspace at capacity** now goes by that answer instead of only the workspace's plan.
+
+## v2026.10.40
+
+- **Reply instructions follow the tools a session really has.** When an agent's hosted Agent Relay MCP links itself to the session (`join_relay` with its desktop address), Agent Relay Cloud now reports that link back, and the session's messages show only the MCP tools, whatever it said when it registered. This works for every CLI, not only ones that declare `"mcp"` in `POST /register`. A link made before the session last registered does not count, and leaving the relay (`leave_relay`) returns it to what it declared. Relay Connect guests still get the socket commands.
+- **Workspace at capacity notice.** When a Free or Pro workspace keeps hitting its write capacity, macOS and Linux show **Workspace at capacity** with a **Review upgrade** button that opens Cloud Billing. Messages are still delivered: Agent Relay retries them, and the notice explains why they may be delayed.
+- **Fewer retry storms when a workspace is busy.** Retries after a busy answer are spread out instead of arriving together, so the desktop no longer adds to the load that caused them.
+- **Session uploads ease off a struggling server.** Agent Relay sends at most two session uploads at once and waits longer for each to finish, so slow uploads finish instead of timing out and starting over.
+- **No more endless 404s for a workspace you left.** A leftover desktop-identity clear for a workspace your account no longer belongs to is now treated as done, instead of being retried with **Workspace not found** on every pass.
+
+## v2026.10.39
+
+- **Capy thread creation stays with agents.** The account and Agents/Team menus on macOS and Linux no longer show **Start Capy thread…**. Agents can still start Capy threads through the relay.
+
+## v2026.10.38
+
+- **Session projects follow the repository, not the launcher.** The Project column on macOS and Linux now uses local Git identity for ordinary checkouts, nested directories, and linked worktrees. Broker-launched sessions no longer appear under the relay machine-node folder when their transcript has no repository evidence.
+- **Agents can follow a channel.** Direct messages stay the default, but an agent in a larger swarm can now subscribe to a channel (`subscribe_relay_channel` in the hosted MCP, or `POST /channels/subscribe` on the session socket) and its posts are injected. Posts that arrive together become one turn instead of one per message, marked as a post in a channel you subscribed to, with how to reply in its thread, when to DM the author instead, and how to unsubscribe. A session can reply in a channel post's thread through the socket with `{"channel","thread_id","text"}`.
+- **Reply instructions match the agent's tools.** A session that registers itself can say whether it has the hosted Agent Relay MCP (`"mcp":"agent-relay-sessions"` or `"mcp":"none"`). Messages it receives then show only the MCP tools, or only the socket commands; a session that did not say gets the tools and one socket line. Relay Connect guests always get the socket commands.
+- **Claude Code sessions on the relay are reminded how to use it.** With *Claude Code activation* on, a session that is already on the relay starts with a short note: its relay name and address, how to list peers and send, and to DM peers whose work its task affects without waiting to be asked.
+
+## v2026.10.37
+
+- **Save session views.** Bookmark a search together with its grouping, sorting, column layout, and hidden-session setting on macOS and Linux. Open saved views from the bookmark beside search, choose a default for startup, or delete views you no longer need. The bookmark fills when the current settings match a saved view.
+- **Consistent Agent Relay buttons.** Primary actions now share the deep-blue brand button with a tight bottom-left corner, accessible white text, and no shadow or glow in either theme.
+

+- **Save session views.** Bookmark a search together with its grouping, sorting, column layout, and hidden-session setting on macOS and Linux. Open saved views from the bookmark beside search, choose a default for startup, or delete views you no longer need. The bookmark fills when the current settings match a saved view.
+- **Consistent Agent Relay buttons.** Primary actions now share the deep-blue brand button with a tight bottom-left corner, accessible white text, and no shadow or glow in either theme.
+
+## v2026.10.35
+
+- **Every Devin Desktop session joins the relay.** The Devin app runs its sessions in one shared background process, and Agent Relay only ever discovered the first lock that process held, so a session opened later — or any but the first — never appeared on the relay and could not be messaged. All sessions the app holds are now discovered and join as before. As a side effect, a relay command run from a tool inside a Devin app session can no longer guess which session it belongs to and is refused as "not a relay session" rather than silently acting as another session.
+
+## v2026.10.34
+
+- **Claude Code activation asks before joining.** With **Settings › Claude Code activation** on, a Claude Code session that is not on the relay now has Claude ask you whether to put it on the relay and under what name, and nothing is registered unless you say yes. A `claude -p`, Agent SDK or other automated run has nobody to answer, so the hook says nothing there and the run does its task as before.
+
+## v2026.10.33
+
+- **Devin CLI sessions join the relay on their own.** A Devin session running on this computer (`devin acp`) is discovered while its process holds the session lock and joins the relay automatically — it appears under this machine with the Devin mark, and teammates' agents can message it by name. An idle or busy session receives the message directly and runs a turn; a closed session's messages wait and arrive when it reopens. This applies while the **Auto-activate** setting is unset: turning it on extends automatic joining to every supported harness, turning it off disables automatic joining entirely. Devin sessions running in the cloud also appear in the session list and hydrate their transcripts on the remote-intake cadence.
+- **A taken relay name no longer blocks a session from joining.** When the name Agent Relay suggests for a session is already held by a stale registration in the workspace — for example after the local store was rebuilt — it retries with a fresh suffix instead of giving up. A name you chose yourself still reports the conflict rather than being silently renamed.
+- **The Capy plugin talks to the hosted relay.** The Agent Relay plugin for Capy now uses Agent Relay Cloud's hosted relay MCP instead of a local endpoint.
+- **Relay Connect says when a participant's session is gone.** A Connect session that stopped running used to stay online in its Connect, because Agent Relay kept checking its inbox on its behalf, and `connect status` showed every participant's presence as unknown. Agent Relay now stops using a Connect's credential while its session is not running, so the other participants see it go offline within about five minutes; its messages wait on Relay and arrive when the session runs again. `connect status` reads presence from Relay Cloud, and each `connect send` receipt carries `delivery`: `sent` when the recipient is online, `queued_recipient_offline` when it is not, or `presence_unknown`. A send to an offline participant also returns a `warning` to pass to your human: the message is queued and has not been seen. A Connect joined with this version tells Relay Cloud that its presence follows its session, which is what lets Cloud report it reachable; a Connect joined before the update shows `presence_unknown` until it is joined again.
+- **Open a session on the web.** On macOS and Linux, a session you view in the app has a **View on web** button below **Open in** that opens the session's Cloud page in your browser. It appears once the session has finished uploading.
+- **Session history reads the latest providers.** The collector uses RelayHistory 0.43.0, which reads Grok Build's per-inference token usage and keeps Codex forks and subagents from counting their parent's copied history.
+
+## v2026.10.32
+
+- **Collector logs rotate during long uploads.** On macOS and Linux the collector checks its log size every second, even while capture or delivery is busy. It keeps the current log and three older logs, rotating at 10 MiB, in the app’s private data directory.
+
+- **Claude Code messages can wait for you.** Settings on macOS and Linux can put individual Claude Code sessions in **Ask first**, limit direct delivery to allowed senders, and let you approve once, always allow that sender, or dismiss a held message before it enters the live session.
+- **A failed Relay Connect send says why.** A send or join that failed used to report "Relay Connect could not be reached" for five different problems. The reply now names the problem: `connect_unreachable` means the network did not answer. `connect_upstream_error` means Relay's server failed. `connect_auth_rejected` means this session's credential was refused while the Connect is still open, which can happen briefly after a host takeover. `connect_internal_error` means Agent Relay stopped handling the request. A failed send says whether the message may already have been delivered, so check before resending. Each failure is also written to the Agent Relay log, without the message, the token, or the Connect link.
+
+## v2026.10.31
+
+## v2026.10.30
+
+
+## v2026.10.29
+
+- **A Codex session with a team subagent can use the relay.** A Codex terminal session that had started a team subagent was refused on every relay command with "not a relay session", because that Codex held the session lock and the subagent lock together. It can reply, register, and subscribe again. A command that claims the subagent's thread, rather than the session that started it, is still refused.
+
+## v2026.10.28
+
+
+## v2026.10.27
+
+- **Roster remains available during heartbeat contention.** Presence heartbeats are staggered per workspace, and temporary write contention no longer pauses healthy roster or message-queue reads.
+
+## v2026.10.26
+
+- **Grok sessions Paseo starts show up.** A Grok session Paseo starts is listed on macOS and Linux as "Grok in Paseo", the same way a Codex or Claude Code session in Paseo is. It can go on the relay when that Grok shares a running leader. A session Paseo starts with `--no-leader` is shown and cannot receive a relayed message, so the message is not delivered into a different Grok chat.
+- **Agent Relay Helper (Sessions) in Activity Monitor.** On a Mac the process that reads your local sessions, lists them in *My sessions* and uploads the ones you share is now listed as *Agent Relay Helper (Sessions)*, so you can tell it apart from the relay core, which stays *Agent Relay Helper*.
+
+## v2026.10.25
+
+- **Paseo agents show up and can receive messages.** Codex sessions and top-level Claude Code chats launched by Paseo are now recognized as live sessions, can be put on the relay automatically, and carry a Paseo badge in the macOS and Linux apps. Nested Claude runs remain part of their parent chat instead of appearing as separate agents.
+
+## v2026.10.24
+
+- **Agent Relay Helper in Activity Monitor.** On a Mac the relay core and its uploader are listed as *Agent Relay Helper* instead of `agent-relay-probe`. The `agent-relay-probe` command in `~/.local/bin` is unchanged.
+- **Uploads run as a background process.** The uploader that reads and sends your session history now runs entirely at background priority on macOS and Linux, so its CPU, disk and network use give way to whatever you are doing. The relay core and the agents it starts keep normal priority.
+- **Lighter history reads.** Agent Relay now uses `ai-hist` 0.40.0: a change in one agent's transcript re-reads only that provider instead of every one, re-reading a Claude transcript no longer runs eight database statements per line, and unchanged OpenCode stores are no longer re-read. The history store drops the trajectory records it no longer keeps without making uploads start over: each upload continues where it was.
+- **Archived sessions leave the relay, and you can see where they went.** When you archive a Codex thread or an OpenCode session, or a Claude app session reports it is archived, its agent now leaves the relay right away and its name is released, even if you added it by hand. Before, an archived session's agent stayed registered as if it might come back. Each one is listed under **Archived** on the Agents page on macOS and Linux, with when it happened and its address to copy.
+
+## v2026.10.23
+
+- **Session uploads send about a quarter of the bytes.** Batches uploaded to Agent Relay Cloud are compressed with zstd (or gzip) whenever the history service says it accepts them, so uploading real session history sends 4.5x fewer bytes for about 11% more CPU. A service that does not accept compressed uploads keeps receiving them as before.
+- **Signing in uploads nothing until you choose.** A new sign-in on macOS and Linux now starts in **Only sessions I choose**: turn on a session's Upload switch in *My sessions* and it keeps uploading as it changes. Automatic uploads of new sessions, or of all sessions, are still in Settings › Session sharing, and an install that already uses them keeps them. Agent-led setup (the `/setup/*` routes and the Linux background service) now uses the same default and never changes the sharing mode of an existing install. The session list is filled as soon as sign-in finishes.
+- **Uploads no longer keep a core busy while you work.** With automatic uploads on, every write an agent made to its transcript started a full read of local history, back to back, so a long session could hold one core at 100%. Agent Relay now spaces those reads by what they cost (at least a second apart, and ten times as long as the last one took), runs them at background priority, and can stop one midway. A line an agent writes still uploads within about a second while reads are cheap.
+- **No local model credential proxy.** The opt-in `credential-proxy serve` command and the core's `RELAY_DESKTOP_CREDENTIAL_PROXY` loopback proxy are gone; relay-owned model features use authenticated Cloud endpoints, and agent CLIs keep their own sign-in.
+- **Grok sessions go on the relay by themselves.** With automatic activation on, a Grok session you open now goes on the relay like a Claude Code or Codex session, as long as Grok's leader is running (Settings › *Grok sessions*). Agent Relay proves the leader before registering the session, rebinds it when Grok restarts its leader, and takes a session off the relay after a few minutes when it can no longer be reached.
+- **Uploads no longer include agent trajectories.** Agent Relay stops sending trajectory records to your history, ahead of the history store dropping them. An upload set up by an earlier version keeps running: anything it had already queued is still sent, and nothing else changes.
+- **An agent's Original request skips Conductor's instructions.** The Agent overview showed Conductor's `<system_instruction>` text as a Conductor chat's original request; it now shows the person's first prompt, on the Mac, Linux, iPhone and iPad.
+
+## v2026.10.22
+
+- **Relay polling no longer exhausts workspace request limits.** Each agent with live push now keeps its low-frequency safety check even when another agent reconnects or a Relay Connect is open. If Relaycast asks the desktop to slow down, deliveries, heartbeats, agent maintenance and node-token refreshes share one workspace-wide backoff; a plan limit pauses messages, reports its reset in Activity, and rechecks no more than once every 15 minutes.
+
+## v2026.10.21
+
+- **Claude sessions on every login.** A Claude Code session that runs on a second Claude login (a `~/.claude-<name>` folder, as account switchers for Conductor keep) is now listed, can be messaged and goes on the relay by itself, like one on your default login.
+
+## v2026.10.20
+
+- **Conductor's Claude chats go on the relay by themselves.** With automatic activation on, a Claude chat in Conductor is now put on the relay like a Claude Code terminal session, as Conductor's Codex chats already were. Other Agent SDK and `claude -p` runs still are not.
+- **Relayed messages show in Conductor's Codex chats.** Conductor shows only the Codex turns it starts, so a message relayed to one of its Codex chats was answered but never appeared. Agent Relay now adds its own Codex hook (Settings › *Conductor Codex chats*, on wherever Conductor has run): a message for a chat that is working is handed over as its turn ends and answered in the chat, and one that arrives while the chat is idle is delivered at once and shown, with the agent's answer, at the end of the chat's next turn.
+- **Agents can send and receive screenshots and other files.** A message that arrives with files is now put into the session even when it has no text, and each file (up to 25 MB) is first saved under the app's data folder in `attachments/<file id>/`, so the injected message ends with an `Attachments:` list giving each file's name, type, size and the path the session can open. A file that cannot be fetched within 20 seconds is still listed, with the reason and a command that fetches it later: the session socket's new `POST /attachments/fetch?file_id=<id>` route when the session can use it, else `agent-relay message file download <file id>`. A session can send files too: `POST /send` on the session socket takes `"files"`, up to five absolute paths of at most 25 MB each, uploads them as the session's agent and sends them in a direct message or channel post (not with a `reply_to` reply, which Relaycast cannot attach files to). Conversations on macOS and Linux show a 📎 line for each file a message carries.
+
+## v2026.10.19
+
+- **Relayed messages show in Conductor's Claude chats.** Conductor shows a Claude Code session's reply to a relayed message but not the message itself, so the agent is now asked to start its reply by quoting it. Codex sessions in Conductor are unchanged: Conductor does not show a relayed turn there at all.
+
+## v2026.10.18
+
+- **Conductor agents on the relay.** Codex sessions running in [Conductor](https://conductor.build) are now listed as live, can be put on the relay, and receive messages. Conductor's agents refused with `not_a_relay_session` before Conductor started bundling Codex 0.159. Conductor sessions carry a Conductor badge on their Codex or Claude icon ("Codex in Conductor") in the agent list and the Sessions table, show your first prompt instead of Conductor's instructions as their title, and count as your sessions rather than agent runs. A relayed turn does not appear in Conductor's chat, as Conductor shows only the turns it starts; the agent has it in its history. While Conductor has an idle session's agent stopped, its messages wait until you next use that chat.
+
+## v2026.10.17
+
+- **Show details opens on Linux.** The chevron on an agent's row in *My agents* now opens its details. A click on it also reached the row, which copied the agent's name or switched the session onto the relay and redrew the list before the chevron's click landed. A press on a control inside a row (a chevron, a switch) is now the control's own; right-click still opens the row's menu.
+- **The Linux session list matches the Mac's table.** *My sessions* has the Mac's Session, Last active, Status and Upload columns: a tile with the agent's mark, the title over the agent, project and branch, a relative last-active time, a coloured status pill with its symbol and a bar for an upload in progress, and the upload switch.
+- **Attachments and pins on iPhone and iPad.** The conversation composer can pick files, which upload through Relaycast and arrive as downloadable items in the conversation. You can pin agents to the top of their list, per workspace and section, and each agent shows its machine as `@machine`. Switching conversation or page while a file uploads now cancels that upload instead of blocking the next conversation's composer.
+- **One banner per message on iPhone and iPad.** With the app open, a new message could show both its push notification and the app's own banner. The app now posts its own banner only on a device that has no push token. (The server side, where a message could be pushed several times while the app was closed, is fixed in Relaycast.)
+- **OpenCode plugin fixes.** A session started with `--session <id> --fork` no longer holds the session it forked from, a malformed prompt gets a 400 instead of a 502, and closing OpenCode removes the plugin's socket and record. The plugin updates itself when Agent Relay starts.
+- **See when a message reaches the agent on iPhone and iPad.** Your latest message in a conversation now says **Sent**, then **Delivered** once Relay has put it into the agent's session, like the receipts in Messages. It replaces the "Queued for delivery" line above the composer. There is no typing indicator: Relay has no signal for it yet.
+
+## v2026.10.16
+
+- **Grok sessions on a Mac can answer on the relay.** macOS hides the environment of Apple's own `curl` from other processes, so a Grok session's reply over `curl` could not be tied to its session and was refused. On macOS the reply and agents commands now use the bundled `agent-relay-probe`, as they already do for Codex and OpenCode.
+- **The Linux app is native Rust on GTK 4.** The same pages, settings, tray and wording, in one binary; Messages is a page in the window that holds each open conversation. The `.deb` depends on GTK 4 (`libgtk-4-1` 4.6 or later, as in Ubuntu 22.04 and newer) and `librsvg2-common` instead of Python, PyGObject, GTK 3 and Ayatana AppIndicator, and the tray icon is a StatusNotifierItem. The core moves to `/usr/lib/agent-relay/agent-relay-probe`; the `agent-relay.service` unit follows it, and a per-user install updates into the new layout by itself.
+- **OpenCode sessions can answer on the relay.** Agent Relay's OpenCode plugin tags every shell OpenCode runs with its session, so a relayed message into an OpenCode session now ends with the same reply and agents commands Claude Code, Codex and Grok get, and the session answers as the agent it is registered as. Agent Relay updates the plugin it installed earlier when it starts; OpenCode sessions opened before that pick it up when they restart.
+- **Starting an agent on iPhone and iPad reports what happened.** The app now counts an agent as started as soon as its machine lists it as running, even when the machine never sends its readiness receipt, so a working start no longer spins for two minutes and ends in "Start request accepted". While it waits, the sheet says which machine it is waiting for and hides the keyboard. A failed start explains itself in a sentence (Agent Relay busy, the agent not ready in time, tools that could not be set up, Codex in use, a project folder the machine cannot open) and keeps the machine's own message under **Details**. A machine that drops out of the list for a moment no longer switches the sheet to another machine.
+- **Saving a project on iPhone and iPad explains a bad path.** A folder that starts with `~` or is not a full path now shows why under the field, and **Save project** stays disabled until it is fixed, instead of failing silently. Projects saved before signing in with Agent Relay Cloud move to the signed-in workspace instead of disappearing.
+- **Agent status answers in seconds, not tens of seconds.** `/agents` and `/setup/status` no longer run a full session discovery on every request, which could wait over 20 seconds while the Codex app was open. The roster read is shared and waits at most 5 seconds before answering with the last known roster marked stale. A desktop socket request now waits up to 60 seconds and says which request timed out, and `sharing status` shows each install's sharing mode.
+
+## v2026.10.15
+
+- **Message the OpenCode sessions you open.** OpenCode sessions you start with a plain `opencode` now appear in the desktop like Claude Code and Codex ones, and adding one lets the relay deliver into it with no click: the message runs as a turn in your session and the answer goes back on the relay as the agent. A plain OpenCode session opens no port, so Agent Relay adds its plugin as `~/.config/opencode/plugins/agent-relay.js`, on by default wherever OpenCode is installed, with an *OpenCode sessions* setting on macOS and Linux to turn it off. The plugin gives each OpenCode window a private socket that only you can open, and it answers only what delivery needs for the sessions that window holds. Delivery is de-duplicated and never resent when in doubt. OpenCode windows opened before the plugin was on are listed as needing a restart. Turning the setting off removes the plugin and leaves `agent-relay.js.off` beside it, so it stays off; a file of yours with the plugin's name is kept as a `.relay-desktop-backup` copy and put back.
+- **Hide a conversation on iPhone and iPad.** Swipe left on a conversation in Messages and tap **Hide** to tidy the list. Nothing is deleted from Relaycast, and the conversation comes back by itself when a new message arrives. Tap **Show hidden** at the end of the list to see hidden conversations and swipe left to **Unhide** one. Hidden conversations are remembered on that device for the signed-in account.
+
+## v2026.10.14
+
+- **Subagents share their session's sharing.** A subagent's transcript is now part of the session that started it: sharing or selecting a session shares its subagents with it, dropping a session drops its subagents, and a session's status covers them.
+- **Agent tools connect to the relay by default.** Claude Code direct delivery and Grok leader mode are now on by default wherever those tools are installed, so their sessions can be messaged without a trip to Settings. Each is turned on once: turn one off in Settings and it stays off, and a tool installed later is turned on the next time the app refreshes. The original config file is kept as a `.relay-desktop-backup` copy.
+- **Another machine's agents show under On the relay (macOS).** With another machine picked in My agents, On the relay lists your agents on the relay from that machine, as on Linux, and a failed roster read shows its error there.
+- **First-run setup explains Claude Code direct delivery and lets you opt out.** The macOS and Linux sign-in screen shows "Deliver relayed messages to Claude Code directly", pre-checked, with one line saying it sets `"crossSessionInbound": "accept"` in `~/.claude/settings.json` unless you already chose a value; untick it to keep messages held (`"hold"`). A value you set yourself, such as `"hold"`, is never overwritten, an organization's managed setting is named instead of the box, and the original file is still saved once as `settings.json.relay-desktop-backup` and replaced atomically. Agent-led `/setup` follows the same rule: its defaults keep your own value, `POST /setup/direct-delivery` takes `{"default":true}` to apply the default without overriding it, and `/setup/status` reports `direct_delivery_user_choice`.
+
+## v2026.10.13
+
+- **Agent Relay shows up in the Linux app launcher.** A per-user install now lists itself in the app launcher with its icon, and keeps the entry pointing at the current version after each update. The entry runs `agent-relay-desktop` instead of `agent-relay`, the name the Agent Relay command-line tool also uses, so it opens the app on systems that have both, including `.deb` installs. `agent-relay-desktop --install-launcher` adds the entry without opening the window.
+- **Selected sessions are re-read when they are written.** The probe re-reads a selected session when its transcript is written, through filesystem events, instead of checking every selected session once a second, with a ten-minute check of every selected session as the backstop.
+- **Linux Messages shows where your message is.** Each open conversation says whether its recipient is running and what Relaycast holds for the last message sent, and My agents and Team offer only running agents to message, as on macOS.
+- **Linux sign-in and sign-out are steadier.** A reply for an account you have left is ignored, the disconnected screen stays until the account has gone, and only one sign-in runs at a time.
+- **Setup status names who is signed in.** `/setup/status` reports the signed-in person's name and email.
+
+## v2026.10.12
+
+- **Muse has its own mark.** Muse agents and sessions draw the Meta mark Muse Code is published under, on macOS, Linux and iOS.
+- **Message an Agent shows where your message is (macOS).** The sheet reports what Relaycast holds for the message you sent: queued, delivered, picked up, or no such agent. It warns before queueing for an agent that is not running, and says whether a reply is expected.
+- **Blocked history uploads recover by themselves.** An upload stopped for sign-in renews from the app's own Cloud sign-in, and setup status names the upload's stage, why it fails and when it was last acknowledged. A long-stalled upload now marks health as degraded.
+- **Setup status answers at once.** It reports last-known state instead of waiting on Relaycast, Cloud or the uploader.
+- **Claude Code sessions with damaged session files are still found.** A session file with stray bytes after its record is read, and one that cannot be read at all is named instead of the session silently disappearing.
+- **Selected sessions upload faster.** Their delivery jobs are pipelined like full-history uploads.
+- **Managed sessions are rechecked on every registration.** Answering an existing managed Grok or OpenCode registration now repeats the live authority check a new one gets.
+
+## v2026.10.11
+
+- **Grok sessions you add bind to the right leader.** Adding a Grok session no longer fails with "More than one Grok leader is open" when leaders from earlier Grok runs are still running. The probe binds the leader the session's own window is attached to, and on macOS it checks which process actually answers on Grok's leader socket, so leftover leaders no longer count.
+- **Fleet workers show their harness.** The roster reads the `cli` a fleet broker records for each worker it spawns, so a worker named without a harness prefix, such as `code-desktop-cool`, gets its Claude, Codex, Cursor, Grok or OpenCode mark. On macOS, agents on other machines and teammates' agents now draw their harness mark too, as on Linux, instead of a generic sparkle.
+- **History uploads start faster and use less CPU.** The probe asks Relay History for its batch limits before the first upload instead of starting at the protocol default, sends a body this build prepared without parsing it again and hashes it once, and prepares pipelined batches on the sender threads.
+- **Older managed-session records are cleaned up safely.** Only a version 1 managed registry is quarantined, after each of its providers is stopped, and stale Grok runtime files and orphaned journal temp files are swept.
+
+- **A selected session uploads with its subagents.** Subagents and child threads are part of the session that started them: the session list no longer shows them as separate sessions, they cannot be selected on their own, and selecting a session now captures and uploads the work it delegated, through every generation. Deselecting the session stops them with it. Upgrade RelayHistory to 0.36.0.
+- **Selected sessions keep only what you share.** A store that captured every session before you switched to selected sessions keeps only the selected sessions' history from the next run on: the rest of the captured history is dropped from the local store, which is then compacted (a 4.1 GB store keeping 10 sessions shrinks to about 0.7 GB). Every session stays in the session list, and one you select again is captured in full again. History whose original transcript is gone is kept, because it could not be captured again. Upgrade RelayHistory to 0.35.0, which also makes the catalog refresh after each provider write about 100 times cheaper on large stores.
+
+## v2026.10.10
+
+- **The probe stays idle when your history is.** With selected sessions, the session list's catalog refreshes when a provider writes, only for that provider, and never uses more than about 2% of a core; an idle machine no longer rescans every local session each minute. The once-a-second check of selected sessions keeps its database connections instead of reopening them.
+- **Workspace verification works again.** Relaycast stopped sending `api_key_hash` in its workspace answer, which the pinned SDK required, so the desktop reported the workspace as unreachable and refused to bind Grok and other managed sessions. The core now reads only the workspace's id and name.
+- **Linux shows the real harness marks.** Agents, sessions, fleet workers and the sign-in splash on Linux now draw the same Codex, Claude, Grok, Cursor, OpenCode and OpenAI marks as the Mac app, in a rounded square that follows the theme, instead of two-letter badges.
+- **Ended sessions are no longer listed.** macOS and Linux list only running sessions. An ended session's agent is marked idle on Relaycast, is no longer heartbeated, pushed to, handed to Cloud as a desktop identity or polled, so it leaves the active roster on every device, including iPhone and iPad; its messages wait on Relaycast for the session to run again. Its registration stays: a reopened Codex thread is back on the relay under its name, with its queued messages, the moment it runs again.
+- **Conversations with an exact address show their history.** A desktop address embeds the agent's immutable id, which now proves the conversation, so a chat opened by address shows its messages even though replies sent through the desktop socket carry no address.
+- **Grok sessions can answer on the relay.** Every Grok tool process carries its session's id, so a relayed message into a Grok session now ends with the same reply and agents commands Claude Code and Codex get, and a Grok session that runs them answers as the agent it is registered as.
+- **Grok agents survive Grok replacing its leader, and long turns count as delivered.** Grok restarts its shared leader on its own, for instance after an update check. A registered Grok agent now follows its session to the new leader at the next delivery instead of refusing every message until it is removed and added again, and a message the leader has queued under the relay's exact text is reported delivered even when the turn runs past the receipt window.
+- **Agents on other machines show their harness.** The roster carries which harness registered each agent, from the registering desktop's record or the agent's name, so Codex, Claude and Grok agents on other machines get their marks on macOS and Linux.
+- **Grok sessions join the relay like Claude Code and Codex ones.** Sessions you open in Grok are listed from Grok's own live-session registry, and adding one binds it to Grok's shared leader with the same kernel and socket proof as before, with no session id or directory to type. A new *Grok sessions* setting on macOS and Linux turns on Grok's leader mode by setting `use_leader = true` under `[cli]` in `~/.grok/config.toml`, changing only that line and keeping a backup, since a plain Grok session opens no route in. The desktop now recognises the leader Grok spawns for itself, which names no socket on its command line, and the already-open Grok route is on by default (`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_EXISTING_GROK=0` turns it off).
+- **Faster upgrades and complete Codex history.** Upgrade RelayHistory to 0.34.2. The first launch after upgrading a large session store no longer stalls on the database upgrade, and Codex Desktop assistant replies stored only as response items now appear in session history, with existing captures re-read to recover missing replies.
+
+## v2026.10.9
+
+- **Hosted sandboxes can upload their final session history without a desktop app.** The standalone probe provides a deadline-bounded `history flush` command that accepts only a push-only RelayHistory session over protected stdin or a consumed private file, keeps the credential in memory, and returns one machine-readable teardown result.
+- **Start and release agents from mobile.** A visible action in Agents opens node selection, CLI artwork and a project picker. Project folders are saved per node. The app confirms a release with you and waits for Relaycast's receipt before reporting a start or stop complete.
+- **Keep conversations easy to read.** Sending clears the composer immediately and shows a pending message. Switching screens clears unsent text, web links open from chat, date and time dividers group messages, swiping left reveals exact message times, VoiceOver reads each message's time, the agent overview can collapse, and the keyboard can be dismissed while reading.
+
+## v2026.10.8
+
+- **Relay Connect reaches fleet-spawned Codex agents.** Messages now resolve to the exact broker-owned Codex process, isolated queue and thread instead of the desktop's default queue. Busy agents keep accepted messages until delivery, preserve per-target order and report durable delivered, in-doubt or refused outcomes without reinjection.
+- **Linux probes run on older distributions—and can be installed by themselves.** Both x64 and arm64 probes now require only glibc 2.34, restoring support for Amazon Linux 2023, RHEL 9 and Ubuntu 22.04. Release and pull-request builds verify that floor, and every release includes standalone probe archives for direct or manual setup; `npx @agent-relay/connect install` still downloads the full Linux package for now.
+- **Find the right agent across machines.** macOS and Linux group each person's agents by machine and show useful task, status and connection details. Expanded rows stay open through roster refreshes, machine names sort consistently, and fleet attach commands use the broker's real node identity or the correct local fallback.
+- **One command subscribes a session to its pull request.** Run `~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe relay subscribe <pull request>` inside a registered Codex or Claude session. It accepts the URL printed by `gh pr create` or `owner/repo#123`, needs no agent name, socket path or workspace key, can be retried safely and supports `--remove`.
+- **Upload conflicts recover without blocking later history.** The uploader validates an exact server conflict, quarantines only the affected record revisions and continues with the remaining records under durable retry identities. macOS, Linux and the probe show a distinct conflict count, and `agent-relay-probe conflicts` lists the affected record and revision IDs without exposing content.
+- **Hosted sandboxes flush history safely at teardown.** A bounded push-only flush captures local provider history and drains it through the normal RelayHistory delivery path under one absolute deadline. Credentials remain in memory, every request shares the remaining wall-clock budget, a watchdog prevents an unbounded teardown and stdout remains one machine-readable JSON result.
+- **Messages reach busy Codex sessions promptly.** Incoming relay messages are handed to an active Codex app session or queued in a terminal session without waiting for that session to become idle.
+- **Mobile follows your appearance.** The iPhone and iPad app now supports system dark mode and shows agent CLI artwork in roster, Drive and conversation badges instead of initials.
+- **Mobile summaries stay connected.** Cloud approval survives a trip through Safari, and the app saves the approved credential before completing workspace setup. Summary access is managed once in Settings, while chats show available session overviews or published objectives.
+- **A window organized around whose agents you're looking at (macOS).** The rail now has **Me** and **Team**, with Settings and your account at the foot. Me's sidebar scopes your agents (on the relay, not on it, fleet workers, other machines) and filters your sessions by upload state and source; Team lists each teammate with the agents they have on the relay and a Message action for each. The top bar shows where you are and holds that page's search and actions.
+- **Light, dark or match system.** Settings › Appearance sets the theme for the window and the menu-bar panel.
+- **Settings in focused panes.** General, Appearance, About & updates, Relay & messages, Session sharing and Account each have their own page.
+- **Hover feedback everywhere you can click.** Rail, sidebar, toolbar, status-bar and row controls highlight on hover and show press and focus states; the account avatar shows your sign-in and connection state.
+- **Connection errors that say what to do.** When Cloud can't connect your workspace to session history, the app now says whether your sign-in expired, your account lacks workspace access, the workspace is unavailable, there were too many attempts, or Cloud had a temporary problem, instead of one generic message.
+
+## v2026.10.7
+
+- **Calmer upload status.** A brief server slowdown no longer shows an alarming “upload service unavailable” warning while batches are still being acknowledged. macOS and Linux now show progress and a calm retry message, escalating only after repeated failures with no progress for five minutes; sign-in, permission, rate-limit, rejection, and compatibility errors remain specific and immediate.
+- **Fewer unnecessary batch retries.** RelayHistory batch uploads now wait up to 90 seconds for an acknowledgment instead of abandoning database-delayed requests at 30 seconds. Retries keep their existing durable batch identity, exponential backoff, and jitter.
+- **A clearer install on macOS.** The disk image now shows an illustrated drag-to-Applications window.
+- **The app's workspace layout matches the Cloud dashboard**, so navigation looks the same in both.
+- **Simpler sign-in screen.** The sign-in splash has shorter copy.
+
+## v2026.10.6
+
+- **Relay Connect on macOS without the app.** The release includes a signed, notarized standalone probe for each Mac architecture, so a guest can join from a headless install.
+- **Codex sessions can use more local relay commands.** On macOS, the signed probe client now carries session identity for setup status, registration, Connect status and leave, identity checks, and integration subscriptions when the system `curl` cannot.
+- **Sends no longer fail on a momentary connection refusal.** When the app cannot reach Relaycast because the connection is refused, a session's send is retried once with an idempotency key, so it cannot arrive twice. Timeouts and server errors are still reported instead of retried.
+
+## v2026.10.5
+
+- **Codex sessions that run through the shared Codex app server can use the relay.** Current Codex releases run sessions under one shared app-server process, and the app rejected their commands with "not_a_relay_session", so those sessions could not join a Relay Connect, reply, register or subscribe. The app now recognizes a session when the signed Codex app server holds that thread's lock. On macOS, reply hints for these sessions use the app's own bundled client, because the system `curl` hides the session's identity; other sessions keep their existing `curl` hints.
+- **A Relay Connect join that times out is safe to retry.** The app waits up to 45 seconds for a join (previously 12) and reports a timeout as `connect_join_timeout`. Retrying the same join returns the same participant instead of adding a second one.
+- **Faster session history and uploads.** Upgrade RelayHistory to 0.33.0 for faster history reads and capture sweeps, fewer redundant uploads, and a fix for database write stalls.
+- **New Codex threads join sooner.** A Codex session can join the relay as soon as it opens, without waiting for the app to refresh its session list.
+- **Useful About diagnostics.** Settings and Account show the desktop release or development Git revision, RelayHistory version, service and Relaycast connection state, and workspace IDs, with a copyable report that excludes credentials and session content.
+- **Reliable development startup.** Development builds identify the service by the desktop build and stop repeatedly restarting a compatible service. Startup and sign-in share a welcome screen with direct recovery actions.
+
+## v2026.10.4
+
+- **Relay Connect messages arrive once and stop when the Connect ends.** Codex terminal sessions now recognize a queued Connect message after it becomes a turn, acknowledge it exactly once, and do not replay it after a probe restart. Leaving, expiry, and host termination cancel queued Connect handoffs, remove the local credential, and report the ended or expired Connect instead of a stale roster or token error.
+
+## v2026.10.3
+
+- **Pull-request feedback subscriptions finish.** Subscribing a session to a pull request with `owner/repo#number` no longer stops at the last step with "Relaycast refused the request", so the subscription becomes ready and review comments reach the session.
+
+## v2026.10.2
+
+- **Join a Relay Connect from its link, no account needed.** A session can join a Relay Connect through the private socket with only the invite link: no sign-in and no workspace key. Messages from the other side are injected into the session with a ready-made reply command, and a session already on your team's relay keeps that registration while it is in a Connect. Joining by link works once the hosted side of Relay Connect is live.
+- **Diagnostics follow your account.** After sign-in, usage and error diagnostics are linked to your Agent Relay account on macOS and Linux, and agents you put on the relay are credited to you. Diagnostics never contain message or session text, searches, paths, URLs, credentials or raw errors; **Settings → Share diagnostics** turns all of it off.
+- **One-command pull-request feedback.** A session can subscribe itself with `owner/repo#number` through the private socket, without a workspace key. Failed bindings clean themselves up without blocking other pull requests, and closed or merged pull-request bindings expire automatically.
+
+## v2026.10.1
+
+- Hosted Agent Relay MCP sessions can now link to a session's signed-in Desktop identity, so messages send as that exact agent and replies are injected locally instead of waiting in a separate hosted inbox.
+- **Smoother agent-led setup on servers.** Sign-in no longer fails with "Could not inspect older upload schedules" on machines without cron, and setup status now shows what sign-in is doing while it prepares instead of an unexplained wait.
+- When a session puts itself on the relay, the response now includes its session ID and whether it receives messages directly.
+- Headless installs clean up an old autostart entry that could fail at login.
+
+## v2026.09.17
+
+- **Messages reach Codex wherever it runs.** Relayed messages now arrive in Codex sessions running in VS Code or the Codex app, not only in a terminal. If the session isn't running, the message waits and the app shows **Waiting — session not running** instead of "Sent."; it's delivered when the session is back.
+- **Readable session names.** Sessions that join the relay get readable names based on their project instead of a long ID.
+- **Headless Linux keeps its uploader current.** On servers, the app now replaces an outdated uploader the same way the desktop app does, so upload health reports correctly.
+- The Session Uploads window gives the session list more room: the upload steps fold behind **Show details** once sessions are listed, and the window opens larger. The toggle respects Reduce Motion.
+
+## v2026.09.16
+
+- **Agents, grouped by person.** The Agents page is organized by person: your own sessions, fleet workers and agents on your other machines under your name and avatar, then each teammate's live agents in a collapsible section. Ended sessions are hidden. **Message** on any agent opens a chat at its exact address.
+- **Readable addresses.** Sessions on the relay now have an address that names the computer they run on (for example `reviewer@ada-s-laptop-…`) instead of `@direct`, so teammates can tell whose machine an agent is on. Addresses stay the same if the computer is renamed, and existing `@direct` addresses keep working.
+- **Replies show up where you sent from.** When a session answers a message, the reply comes back to the desktop app and the web conversation, threaded under the message it answers. A session that has already replied no longer also sends its final narration as a second message.
+- **Sessions can join the relay themselves.** A Codex or Claude Code session can put itself on the relay, see who else is on it, and leave again without anyone opening the app. A setting controls whether sessions may do this.
+- **Agent-led setup, including headless Linux.** A coding agent can set up Agent Relay on a Mac or a Linux server end to end, with sign-in by a one-time device approval from any browser or phone. On servers set up this way, every session goes on the relay, Claude Code receives relayed messages directly, and new sessions are uploaded automatically.
+- **Faster and more reliable sessions.** Looking up the calling session is near-instant (it could take about 45 seconds), older Codex sessions are recognized when they send, and sessions are ordered by their real last activity.
+- Signing in again while your workspace's uploader is running now just works: the app takes over the running uploader instead of showing an error.
+- An older copy of the app no longer shows you as signed out of a workspace a newer version is uploading, and never replaces a newer command-line uploader with its older one.
+
+## v2026.09.15
+
+- The session list no longer shows uploaded sessions as still waiting on a large history: sessions it has confirmed stay **Uploaded** until they change, and any it hasn't checked yet show **Checking…** instead of counting as in progress.
+- The menu bar panel lists your Codex and Claude sessions, each with a switch that puts it on the relay. A dot on the session's icon shows whether it can receive messages right now, and a session on the relay is uploaded automatically.
+- Linux: a message injected into a session carries the one-line reply command only when that session can actually send through the app, matching macOS; a session the app could never identify as the sender no longer gets a command that always fails.
+- The uploader's log no longer grows without limit: `collector.log` rotates at 10 MB and keeps three older logs. Disconnecting a workspace now also releases its upload queue and removes its logs, while keeping your local session history.
+- The app now releases upload data left behind by disconnected workspaces in the background after it starts, without delaying launch, and skips workspaces it has already cleaned up with a quick file check instead of reopening their history.
+- Uploads now clean database-incompatible JSON text, skip only individually rejected records while continuing later uploads, distinguish those skips from privacy exclusions in status, report server rejections honestly, and reliably replace an uploader left running by an older app build.
+
+## v2026.09.14
+
+- Uploads no longer stop for good on one very large session record, such as a tool result that printed a whole PDF. The record is shortened to fit and marked as truncated, and the rest of your history keeps uploading.
+
+## v2026.09.13
+
+- A large upload backlog now drains in minutes instead of hours: the uploader keeps sending while it has a backlog, instead of pausing to re-read all of your local history every minute.
+- Sessions show **Uploaded** as soon as everything in them has been uploaded, instead of all showing **Preparing** until your whole history finishes uploading.
+- macOS: sessions made available on the relay can now reply and send as their own `@name` through a private Unix socket. The app derives the sender from the connecting process, checks pid and process start time to prevent pid-reuse impersonation, rate-limits sends, and never exposes the session's Relaycast token.
+
+## v2026.09.12
+
+- Updating no longer stalls uploads on a large session history: the one-time upgrade of local history now finishes in the background (the app shows **Upgrading local history** meanwhile), and the app restarts the uploader so an update takes effect without quitting it. After the uploader restarts, the app no longer shows the previous run's "Sync paused or offline" message while the new run catches up.
+- Linux: after an update, the app shows **Upgrading local history** while the uploader upgrades your session history, instead of an error, and restarts an uploader still running the previous version so the update takes effect.
+
+## v2026.09.11
+
+- Session uploads now read straight from your local session history, so there is no separate upload queue to fill up. Capture and uploads that stopped because that queue was full start again on their own after updating, resending everything not yet uploaded.
+- Messages can target one exact Relaycast endpoint with its canonical `agent@machine` address. The desktop shows and copies published addresses, accepts `agentrelay://message?to=agent%40machine`, keeps plain `@name` sends working, and reports malformed, stale, wrong-machine, missing, or ambiguous endpoints without falling back to another machine.
+- Injectable agents preserve a DM sender's canonical address in the prompt and use it for automatic final answers, so a reply cannot follow a same-named agent onto another machine. Replies already queued by older builds remain compatible.
+
+## v2026.09.10
+
+- Linux: the Agents page now lists the Claude Code sessions running on your computer. **Make available** gives a session an @name on the relay, and teammates' and agents' messages to it are typed into the session for you. Messages arrive the moment they're sent.
+- Linux: a new **Workspace** page lists everyone on the relay — agents, people and services — with who is active, what each one does, and whether it runs on this computer, in the cloud or on another desktop.
+- Linux: sessions made available on the relay can now reply and send messages themselves. Each message a session receives shows the sender's address and a one-line reply command; the app sends the reply as the session's own @name, and no key or token is ever shown to the session.
+- Linux: message anyone in the workspace from the **Workspace** page. Messages go out as your one Agent Relay identity — the same you as on the web dashboard — so every conversation is in one history wherever you open it. Replies appear the moment they're sent.
+- Session uploads no longer get stuck on a session whose output contains binary data (for example, a command that printed an executable). Uploads that were stuck this way resume on their own after updating.
+
+## v2026.09.9
+
+- Integration events are quieter: index updates, generic record syncs, edits and pushes no longer interrupt the session; pull requests, reviews and new comments still arrive.
+- Automatic replies now go only to people and agents who message you. An agent's answer to a GitHub event is never posted back to GitHub unless it replies on purpose.
+
+## v2026.09.8
+
+- Integrations no longer need relayfile on your Mac: no install, login or background service. Subscribing uses your Agent Relay sign-in, and if the provider isn't connected yet, Agent Relay opens to connect it.
+
+## v2026.09.7
+
+- Injectable sessions now answer back: when a message's turn finishes, the agent's final answer is sent to the sender as the agent's `@name` (Codex and Claude Code sessions). Turn it off per agent with **Reply with final answer**.
+- New **Integrations** in each agent's tools panel: subscribe it to a GitHub, Linear, Slack or Jira resource and provider events arrive in the session, while its replies go back to the provider. It uses your Agent Relay workspace automatically; there is nothing to set up per workspace.
+
+## v2026.09.6
+
+- Fixed signing in with Google and **Connect workspace** returning "This sign-in request was not recognized": the sign-in's check value no longer gets lost on the way back from Agent Relay.
+- The Agents tab now joins the Relaycast workspace this Mac's `agent-relay` already uses, so injectable sessions sit beside your relay agents. Without one, it uses your Agent Relay account's workspace, fetched automatically when you sign in. If the two differ, the tab says so.
+- Messages reach injectable sessions faster: pushed direct messages and thread replies go straight into the session, and the background check runs less often.
+- Each injectable session in the Agents tab has a tools panel: rename its agent (the old name is released), send it a test message through Relaycast, and create a **webhook** — a URL and bearer token that any service (CI, alerts, scripts) can POST to, landing straight in that session.
+- The Agents tab (macOS) and a new Agents page (Linux) now show the fleet workers this computer's Agent Relay broker is running — `agent-relay node|fleet agent spawn` agents across Codex, Claude, Devin, and other providers — with their live state, channels, and pending message counts. Copy a worker's @name to message it from the workspace, or release it back to the fleet.
+
+## v2026.09.5
+
+- New **Agents** tab (now the first tab): every Codex thread and Claude Code session on your Mac is listed. Turn one on to give it a name on Relaycast; anyone in your workspace can then DM or @mention that name, and the message is put straight into the running session — no `agent-relay` spawn needed.
+- One click lets Claude Code show relayed messages without holding them for approval.
+
+## v2026.09.4
+
+- Agent Relay is now available for Linux on x64 and arm64, with Debian packages and tarballs.
+- On macOS, check for app updates from Settings and download a verified disk image.
+- On macOS, choose which sessions to share from the menu bar and find local sessions by title.

+# Agent Relay Desktop
+
+Native, temporary agent collaboration: see [Relay Connect](docs/native-connect.md).
+
+
+The native companion app that connects a computer to
+[Agent Relay Teams](https://agentrelay.com) in two clicks: install the app, sign
+in with Google, done.
+
+It bundles `agent-relay-probe`, the relay core: one Rust program that puts your
+local coding sessions (Claude Code, Codex and friends) on the relay, delivers
+messages to them, and captures and uploads them to your workspace. The app shows
+that in the menu bar and lets you pause uploads, choose which past sessions to
+share, and message your agents. You never have to touch a terminal.
+
+macOS, Linux and Windows ship as full companion apps; the
+[Windows app](windows/README.md) is the Linux GTK app built for Windows. The
+native [iPhone and iPad app](ipad/native/README.md) connects directly to Cloud
+and Relaycast.
+
+## Start over with local sessions during development
+
+Build the probe, list its configured installs, then reset the intended one:
+
+```bash
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --bin agent-relay-probe
+probe/target/debug/agent-relay-probe sharing status --json
+probe/target/debug/agent-relay-probe sessions reset --local \
+  --site-url '<site_url>' --account '<account_id>' --workspace '<workspace_id>' \
+  --confirmation 'RESET LOCAL SESSIONS'
+```
+
+Use the install’s site origin and IDs from `sharing status`. For local development,
+use the launcher’s exact origin, including its port. This command keeps sign-in
+and original Codex/Claude conversations, clears the target install’s upload journal
+and selections, and restarts its collector with manual selection and no uploads
+selected. Cloud sessions are unchanged. Existing conversations can be discovered,
+read, and selected again; refresh the desktop session list after it finishes.
+
+Reader/preview caches and the old reset exclusion list are shared across local
+installs, so those are cleared machine-wide. Other installs’ upload journals and
+selections are retained. Interrupted local resets replay locally before capture
+resumes. A pending cloud reset must be completed before switching reset modes.
+
+Without `--local`, `sessions reset` remains the destructive cloud-and-local reset
+and requires `DELETE ALL SESSIONS`. Use `--local` for a development start-over;
+the destructive reset deliberately excludes pre-existing sessions. Neither reset
+is exposed in the desktop Settings UI.

+shasum -a 256 -c AgentRelay-macOS-arm64.dmg.sha256
+```
+
+Open the image, drag **Agent Relay** to Applications, and launch it.
+
+### Welcome and uploads
+
+On macOS the window is organized by whose relay you are looking at. The rail's
+**Me** holds *My agents* (every live session on this Mac, its switch onto the
+relay, fleet workers and your agents on other machines) and *My sessions*
+(every session with its upload state and the controls to choose which upload).
+**Team** shows each teammate's agents on the relay. **Settings** and your
+account sit at the foot of the rail; Settings › Appearance chooses Match
+system, Light or Dark. The layout is documented in
+[`docs/workspace-layout.md`](docs/workspace-layout.md).
+
+Agent Relay opens a full window as well as a menu-bar control. The welcome
+screen uses a split layout, with sign-in on the right. Sign in with Google in
+your browser; signing in does not select any sessions for upload. The relay core
+keeps your Agent Relay session, connects the workspace, captures the local
+session catalog and starts the background collector. The window then opens
+My agents automatically.
+
+**My agents** lists every session on this Mac; the menu-bar panel counts how
+many sessions are receiving messages, local only, uploaded and not. Each row's switch puts the session on the relay, which gives it a name to
+message and uploads it. Search filters the list; a row's chevron shows its
+address, ids, folder and upload, plus a Cloud session overview and tools for rename, replies, webhooks and
+integrations. **Message** in the top bar writes to any address; the **⋯** menu
+holds refresh, recent messages and relay settings. Workspace and Claude Code
+delivery settings live in **Settings › Relay & messages**.
+
+My agents and Team can filter by machine. Agents on other machines and fleet
+workers show their saved Cloud overview when available and can request a new
+summary. A published agent description and the original user request from
+uploaded History events remain visible while Cloud is generating a summary or
+unavailable.
+
+The default is **Only sessions I choose**. In **My sessions** (also the upload
+status in the window's status bar or the menu-bar panel), check the rows you want
+and click **Upload selected**. Checking a row alone does not start an upload.
+Selected sessions continue uploading changes; other existing and newly discovered
+sessions stay local. **Settings › Session sharing** is where automatic uploads
+for new sessions or all past and future sessions require explicit confirmation.
+Existing saved upload policies are preserved. Already uploaded remote data is not
+deleted by stopping uploads.
+
+My sessions displays actual per-session queued/uploading/uploaded states and
+record-level progress. The open window refreshes every five seconds. Search
+filters loaded sessions; **Load more** extends the initial 500-session page.
+
+The session uploads table opens with the latest local titles from the uploader's
+shallow catalog while full history capture continues. Preview rows remain
+unselectable until the uploader confirms they are ready. The desktop shows
+per-source files processed and sessions captured locally. The preview catalog,
+local file counts and capture counts stay on the Mac; Cloud receives only
+permitted-session delivery progress. Sessions on the relay are uploaded.
+Settings controls opening at login, the background service and upload policy.
+Settings and Account include About diagnostics: the desktop release (or Git
+revision for development), running and bundled service versions, the compiled
+RelayHistory (`ai-hist`) version, bridge protocol, service process, Relaycast
+verification and live-channel state, and Cloud/Relaycast workspace IDs. Copy
+diagnostics copies those displayed fields without credentials or session content.
+Disconnected services mark their retained snapshot as stale. Account also lets
+you log out.
+Quitting the app leaves the relay core running: agents keep receiving messages
+and uploads continue. Reopen the app from the Dock or Applications. Turn off
+**Settings › General › Keep agents connected after quitting** to have quitting
+stop the core until the app opens again.
+
+### First run
+
+When the release was built with Developer ID credentials it is signed and
+notarized, and opens normally.
+
+Local builds and PR CI builds produced without those credentials are **ad-hoc signed**. macOS then
+refuses the first launch with *"Agent Relay" cannot be opened because it is from
+an unidentified developer*. To open it once:
+
+1. In Applications, **right-click** (or Control-click) **Agent Relay**.
+2. Choose **Open**.
+3. Choose **Open** again in the dialog.
+
+macOS remembers the decision; later launches are normal. On macOS 15 you may
+instead have to go to **System Settings → Privacy & Security** and click **Open
+Anyway** under the message about Agent Relay.
+
+## How the relay core is bundled and run
+
+The relay core is [`probe/`](probe/), a Rust crate built from this repository by
+CI and releases for every target and stamped with the desktop release version it
+ships in. It reads local history through the published `ai-hist` crate.
+`build-app.sh` lays it inside the bundle with the LaunchAgent that runs it:
+
+```
+Agent Relay.app/Contents/
+  Info.plist
+  PkgInfo
+  MacOS/RelayDesktop                                  # the SwiftUI app
+  Helpers/Agent Relay Helper                          # agent-relay-probe: the relay core, 0755
+  Helpers/Agent Relay Helper (Sessions)               # a hard link to it: the session collector
+  Library/LaunchAgents/com.agentrelay.desktop.core.plist
+  Resources/AppIcon.icns
+  Resources/agent-relay-probe.sha256                  # checksum of the bundled core
+  Resources/probe-version.txt                         # the core's version
+```
+
+The app registers the LaunchAgent with `SMAppService.agent` on launch. launchd
+runs `agent-relay-probe relay serve` at login with no window, keeps it alive,
+and restarts it from the bundle after an update; the app is a client of its
+socket, `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.sock`. Activity Monitor lists the core
+as **Agent Relay Helper** and the session collector it starts as **Agent Relay
+Helper (Sessions)**. The collector reads local sessions, lists them for *My
+sessions* and uploads the ones being shared; it runs as a background process,
+so it yields to everything else. When macOS asks for approval,
+Settings and the sign-in screen open **System Settings › General › Login
+Items**. With **Keep agents connected after quitting** off, quitting
+unregisters the LaunchAgent, which stops the core until Agent Relay opens again. Agent Relay Dev has its own label
+(`com.agentrelay.desktop.dev.core`), socket (`core.dev.sock`) and data directory
+(`com.agentrelay.desktop.dev`). The bridge contract and the lifecycle are in
+[`docs/relay-core.md`](docs/relay-core.md).
+
+The core keeps `~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe` no older than itself (never over
+a copy another developer signed) so the command line runs the same uploader.
+Packaging checks that the core serves `relay serve` and that the uploader
+commands it runs support `--json`, `--selected-sessions-only` and
+`sessions preview`; the check runs on hosts that match the build target.
+
+Sign-in opens Google in your default browser and returns to a localhost
+receiver the core runs; the app never handles Google credentials or tokens.
+
+## Development
+
+Requirements: macOS 13 or later, the Xcode command line tools, and a Rust
+toolchain for the probe.
+
+```sh
+# The app on its own (SwiftPM, no Xcode project)
+swift build --package-path macos
+swift test  --package-path macos
+
+# The probe and its tests
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked
+scripts/build-probe.sh --target aarch64-apple-darwin --version 0.0.0 --out probe-build
+
+# A complete, ad-hoc signed bundle
+scripts/build-app.sh --arch arm64 --version 0.0.0 --probe probe-build --out dist
+# One-time setup for the styled, headless DMG packager (Python 3.10+)
+python3 -m venv /tmp/relay-dmg-tools
+/tmp/relay-dmg-tools/bin/python -m pip install -r scripts/dmg-requirements.txt
+export PATH="/tmp/relay-dmg-tools/bin:$PATH"
+scripts/package-dmg.sh --app 'dist/Agent Relay.app' --out dist/AgentRelay.dmg
+```
+
+`swift run` has no LaunchAgent to register, so it connects to a core you start
+yourself on the same socket:
+
+```sh
+cargo run --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml -- relay serve
+```
+
+Development reloads rebuild both the Swift executable and Rust helper, validate
+the helper’s reset command, and re-sign the bundle with its existing identity.
+
+Each new build (`build-app.sh`, or `scripts/dev-reload.sh` replacing the app
+executables) registers its core again on launch and retires the one registered
+before. launchd admits the core against a code requirement macOS records for
+the agent: a Developer ID or Apple Development signature names a team, so an
+update starts at once. An ad-hoc signature pins the old binary's hash, which
+macOS keeps for a short while after the bundle changes; the app registers the
+core again while it does not answer, and the new core starts within about a
+minute.
+
+Every script takes `--help`. In short:
+
+| Script | What it does |
+| --- | --- |
+| `scripts/build-probe.sh` | Builds `probe/` for one Rust target, stamped with a version. Writes `agent-relay-probe`, `agent-relay-probe.sha256` and `probe-version.txt`. |
+| `scripts/build-app.sh` | `swift build -c release --arch …`, assembles `Agent Relay.app`, renders the icon, fills in `Info.plist`, then signs (Developer ID → notarized, else ad-hoc). |
+| `scripts/package-dmg.sh` | Creates a branded Retina `.dmg` with fixed app and Applications icon positions, using `dmgbuild` without Finder automation, and writes `FILE.dmg.sha256`. |
+| `scripts/render-dmg-background.swift` | Composes the subdued relay-runner artwork with the source logo/wordmark, dashed drag arrow and install instruction at 1x and 2x. Run with an output directory to preview; `scripts/dmg-settings.py` places the native Finder icons in the matching 768×576 layout. This artwork is specific to the macOS DMG. |
+| `scripts/render-icon.swift` | Standalone Swift script that draws the Agent Relay mark on a dark squircle into an `AppIcon.iconset`. Run by `build-app.sh`; `swift scripts/render-icon.swift OUT_DIR` to preview it. |
+
+The Linux app (`agent-relay-desktop`, GTK 4) runs and tests with:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop --bin agent-relay-probe
+probe/target/debug/agent-relay-desktop
+xvfb-run -a cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk
+```
+
+Build a release tree, tarball, and Debian package with
+`scripts/build-linux.sh`, passing the app (`cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --release
+--features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop`) and a probe from `scripts/build-probe.sh`
+(`x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu` or `aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu`). See
+[`linux/README.md`](linux/README.md).
+
+The Windows app is the same `agent-relay-desktop` program, built natively in an
+[MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org) CLANG64 (x64) or CLANGARM64 (arm64) shell with
+its Rust and GTK 4 packages:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop --bin agent-relay-probe
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk
+scripts/build-windows.sh --version 0.0.0 --arch x64 --out dist/windows
+```
+
+`scripts/build-windows.sh` builds both programs and writes the portable tree,
+the zip with the GTK runtime, and the bare-core zip. See
+[`windows/README.md`](windows/README.md).
+
+The relay core, its bridge contract and the apps' lifecycles live in
+[`docs/relay-core.md`](docs/relay-core.md).
+
+## Release process
+
+1. Add user-facing bullets under `## Unreleased` in [`CHANGELOG.md`](CHANGELOG.md),
+   user-facing changes for the release, then make sure `main` is green. The
+   workflow requires at least one Unreleased bullet and copies those bullets
+   into **What's new in this release**.
+2. Dispatch the `Desktop Release` workflow with no inputs, or tag and push:
+
+   ```sh
+   gh workflow run 'Desktop Release' --repo AgentWorkforce/relay
+   # or, to override the default version:
+   # gh workflow run 'Desktop Release' --repo AgentWorkforce/relay -f version=2026.09.2
+   # or:
+   git tag desktop-v2026.09.1
+   git push origin desktop-v2026.09.1
+   ```
+
+`.github/workflows/desktop-release.yml` then builds macOS, Linux and Windows for arm64
+and x64 on native runners (`macos-15`, `macos-15-intel`, Ubuntu 22.04 on
+Blacksmith for both Linux architectures, and `windows-latest` and
+`windows-11-arm`; see [CI runner configuration](.github/README.md)),
+requires macOS signing and notarization, and publishes to
+[`AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases`](https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases).
+Versions are CalVer (`YYYY.MM.N`, where `N` counts that month's releases
+starting at 1). A `workflow_dispatch` run without a `version` input computes
+the next `N` from the current month's published releases; pass `version`
+(without the leading `v`) to override it, or push a `desktop-v…` tag for the same effect.
+Overlapping release runs serialize on one concurrency group; if your run shows
+Canceled because a newer release superseded it while pending, re-dispatch and
+it allocates the next `N`.
+The source stays in this repository. Each release contains these assets:
+
+- `AgentRelay-2026.09.1-macOS-arm64.dmg` + `.sha256`
+- `AgentRelay-2026.09.1-macOS-x64.dmg` + `.sha256`

+- stable `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>.zip` copies with `.sha256`
+- `AgentRelay-2026.09.1-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe` + `.sha256`: the per-user
+  installer, with stable `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe` copies
+- `AgentRelay-2026.09.1-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip` + `.sha256`: the bare
+  Windows core (`agent_relay/helpers/agent-relay-probe.exe` and the DLLs it
+  needs), with stable `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip` copies
+- `AgentRelay-2026.09.1-macOS-<arch>-probe.tar.gz` and
+  `AgentRelay-2026.09.1-Linux-<arch>-probe.tar.gz` + `.sha256`: the standalone
+  headless probe (`agent_relay/helpers/agent-relay-probe`), with stable
+  `AgentRelay-<os>-<arch>-probe.tar.gz` copies. The Linux probe runs on glibc
+  2.34 and newer; the release fails if either architecture's probe needs a
+  newer glibc (`scripts/check-glibc-floor.sh`).

+Installed builds check the public repository's latest stable release once per
+day by default. When an update is available, the app shows a blue update button
+and asks before quitting to install it. **Settings → Software updates** also
+provides an immediate check. The app verifies the architecture-specific disk
+image's published SHA-256 and the replacement app's signature before installing
+and reopening Agent Relay.
+
+## Repository secrets and variables
+
+Configure these Actions secrets in the repository where builds run. Public
+releases require five signing/notarization secrets plus `RELEASES_TOKEN`;
+local builds and PR CI can still use ad-hoc signing. No secrets belong in the public
+distribution repository.
+
+| Name | Kind | Purpose |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `RELEASES_TOKEN` | secret | Fine-grained token restricted to `AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases`, with Contents read/write. |
+| `CSC_LINK` | secret | Developer ID Application certificate and private key, as a base64-encoded `.p12` (the same format as Pear). The signing identity is selected from the certificate. |
+| `CSC_KEY_PASSWORD` | secret | Password for that `.p12`. |
+| `APPLE_API_KEY_BASE64` | secret | App Store Connect API key as a base64-encoded `.p8`. |
+| `APPLE_API_KEY_ID` | secret | App Store Connect API key ID. |
+| `APPLE_API_ISSUER` | secret | App Store Connect API issuer ID. |
+| `POSTHOG_API_KEY` | secret | PostHog project ingestion key embedded only in official release builds. |
+| `POSTHOG_HOST` | secret | HTTPS PostHog ingestion origin embedded only in official release builds. |
+
+The release workflow fails when a signing/notarization secret is missing. GitHub
+does not allow one repository to read another repository's secrets, so the five
+Apple values must be configured in the source repository.
+The publishing token is passed only to the publish job; the default `GITHUB_TOKEN`
+stays read-only. Initialize the distribution repo with its README on `main` and
+make it public before the first release. A prerelease tag such as `v1.2.3-rc.1`
+does not replace the stable `/releases/latest` download.
+
+Create the fine-grained token in GitHub, then store it without putting its value in
+a command line or transcript:
+
+```sh
+gh secret set RELEASES_TOKEN
+```
+
+The tag is created against the distribution repo’s `main`, not the source
+commit. Release notes must describe the shipped app; source PR notes are not
+automatically copied into the distribution repository. Nothing in these scripts or workflows prints a
+secret value; the decoded `.p12` is written to a `0600` temporary file that is
+deleted before the script exits, alongside the temporary signing keychain.
+
+## Website
+
+The download buttons on <https://agentrelay.com/download> point at the stable
+asset names above, so a new release changes what they serve without any website
+deploy.
+
+### Desktop analytics and error tracking
+
+The relay core sends explicit `desktop_operation` events and handled
+`$exception` events to the same PostHog project as Cloud, for the production
+site in a release build only. The app records the few operations only it
+performs (launch, settings, logs, login item, connection links) through the
+core. Official release builds receive the project ingestion key and HTTPS host
+from protected GitHub Actions secrets. Forks, source builds, tests and
+`--dev-site-url` bundles contain no PostHog project configuration and send
+nothing. A PostHog ingestion key is not an administrative API credential, but
+keeping it out of source prevents community builds from writing to the official
+project.
+
+The operation/outcome funnel distinguishes sign-in, browser approval, history
+preparation and connection restoration. Further events cover helper startup and
+polling failures, reported upload health failures/recovery, pause/resume, including/excluding sessions, sharing-mode changes,
+logout, login-item settings and opening settings/logs. Successful polling does not
+emit events. Session inclusion means the helper accepted an upload selection; it
+does **not** assert that the upload reached Cloud. Native crashes and probe-internal errors that are not exposed in its status
+contract are not captured by this client.
+
+After sign-in, events are linked to your Agent Relay account. They never contain
+message or session text, searches, paths, URLs, credentials or raw errors.
+Opting out turns all of it off.
+
+| State | `distinct_id` | Person and groups |
+|---|---|---|
+| No install attached | `desktop:<installation UUID>` | `$process_person_profile: false` |
+| Install attaches | one `$identify` from `desktop:<installation UUID>` (`$anon_distinct_id`) to Cloud `users.id` | merges the installation's earlier events, sign-in setup included, into the user; a cancelled or unattached sign-in stays anonymous |
+| Attached | Cloud `users.id` | `$groups: { organization: <organizations.id>, workspace: <workspaces.id> }` |
+
+The installation UUID is random. Once merged it belongs to that person: a
+relaunch keeps it until discovery decides, and sign-out, opt-out, discovery
+finding no install and another person attaching replace it. The merge is recorded only once PostHog accepts `$identify`; a
+refused one is sent again with the next event. Context is limited to fixed
+operation/outcome/error codes, app/probe/OS versions, bounded session counts
+(`session_count`) and sharing mode (`sharing_mode`), with `$geoip_disable`.
+Error grouping uses operation + error code, so an unknown helper failure remains
+`helper_failed`; Cloud supplies server-side diagnostics for the corresponding
+failure category. No session replay or UI autocapture is enabled.
+
+Session agents register on Relaycast with `cloud_user_id`, `cloud_workspace_id`
+and `owner_hash` in their metadata, so the engine credits their messages to the
+signed-in person. When an install attaches, agents registered before it, or
+under another person, are updated through `PATCH /v1/agents/{name}`.
+
+**Settings → Share diagnostics** disables both event types and drops queued
+events. The core keeps the preference in the app data directory. Identical exception operation/error pairs
+are limited to once per minute (repeated background polling failures are also
+deduplicated in product events; explicit user attempts still count), with a
+global limit of 100 operations per minute on a monotonic clock. One request is
+in flight at a time; requests are best effort with finite timeouts, without disk
+persistence, and never delay sign-in or upload actions.
+
+Desktop usage stays in `desktop_operation`, with these additional `operation`
+values shared by macOS, Linux and Windows:
+
+| Operation | Trigger and interpretation |
+|---|---|
+| `agent_register` | Explicit `agents.register` request starts and succeeds/fails; `agent_kind` is the fixed provider enum and `already_registered` distinguishes an existing registration from a new one. Automatic discovery/registration is not a UI creation attempt. |
+| `agent_unregister` | Explicit removal starts and succeeds/fails. |
+| `message_send` | Person-to-agent send starts and succeeds/fails; `is_reply` records whether a reply parent was supplied. Success means the send API accepted it, not that the agent read it. |
+| `message_test` | Explicit test-message command starts and succeeds/fails. |
+| `message_composer` | Opening the message composer (`started`), without its recipient. |
+| `page_view` | Entering a page or settings pane (`succeeded`), including the initial connected page; unchanged snapshots do not repeat it. |
+| `search` | A nonempty session/agent/team query or filter settles for 500 ms (`succeeded`); clearing cancels a pending event. No query, query length, result text or recipient is sent. |
+| `transcript_open` | Initial transcript read or explicit refresh starts and succeeds/fails; pagination and background following are excluded, including polls without a cursor. |
+| `delete_sessions` | Explicit deletion succeeds/fails, separate from `exclude_sessions`. |
+| `upload_completed` | A previously observed queued/uploading session becomes `uploaded`; `session_count` aggregates transitions in that listing. Historical uploads, new pagination baselines and repeated polls do not count. This is observed progress, not a complete Cloud delivery ledger: transitions between reads or while the app is closed may be missed. |
+| `update_install` | An update starts and succeeds/fails. Success means replacement was installed or handed to the native replacement helper, not a confirmed relaunch. A downloaded Linux `.deb` emits `requires_action` because installation is manual. |
+
+The optional `surface` is a closed vocabulary: `sessions`, `agents`, `team`,
+`messages`, `projects`, and `settings_general`, `settings_opening`,
+`settings_relay`, `settings_sharing`, `settings_account`, `settings_about`,
+`settings_diagnostics`. Projects is reserved for the macOS-only hidden page.
+The settings event now follows actual settings-pane navigation on both platforms.
+Browser opening emits `browser_approval` started and succeeded/failed on each desktop.
+Success means the native opener accepted the handoff (on Windows, the validated
+URI was queued to the shell worker), not that browser approval finished.
+Sign-in cancellation is emitted once in the core, not again by either UI.
+Include/exclude/delete report the number of requested session keys as
+`session_count`; sharing-mode changes report `sharing_mode`.
+Agent/message/transcript command failures use `request_failed`, never error text;
+update failures use `update_failed`. All new events use the existing opt-out,
+identity, rate limits, exception deduplication and best-effort queue.
+Awaited update telemetry calls have a three-second client deadline, including connection
+and response time. GTK waits asynchronously so the window stays responsive; an
+unresponsive diagnostics call cannot indefinitely delay downloading or restarting.
+
+The request format follows PostHog's [capture API](https://posthog.com/docs/api/capture)
+and [exception schema](https://github.com/PostHog/posthog-js/blob/main/packages/core/src/error-tracking/types.ts).
+The core's telemetry and account tests inspect requests with a recording
+sender; they never send test events to PostHog.
+
+### Desktop build identity
+
+The probe is an internal component of the desktop release, not a separately
+versioned product. Release builds stamp the same `YYYY.MM.N` version into the app
+and probe. Plain Cargo builds report `<latest desktop release>-dev+<git revision>`; the manifest's
+`0.0.0` is an unpublished package placeholder. Development builds take their numeric base
+from the latest release heading in `CHANGELOG.md`; Git hashes identify builds
+without being treated as chronological versions. `build.rs` reads the resolved
+`ai-hist` version from `Cargo.lock` for runtime diagnostics. The macOS packaging
+and reload scripts record the desktop Git revision in `build-revision.txt`.

+# Agent details data contract
+
+The Agents page reads `roster.list` through the signed-in desktop core. A roster row has `name`, `address`, `kind`, `where`, `status`, `last_seen_ms`, `description`, `host`, `owner_hash`, and `is_self`. The core intentionally reduces the Relaycast record; arbitrary registration metadata is not passed to the UI. The local `fleet.list` path adds worker state, last activity, provider, model, session ID, channels, and node. Both lists are already refreshed by the page. The expanded view uses these fields without adding one network request per open row.
+
+The one-line summary uses a short agent summary if a future authorized core contract supplies one, then recent outgoing text if supplied, then the existing description. Spawn-instruction boilerplate is suppressed. When no task text is available, the page says so instead of presenting a brief path as current activity. Idle workers show idle time when their last activity is known.
+
+Fleet workers keep their broker state as the subtitle. The core intentionally excludes fleet-owned sessions from `sessions.list`, while agent names can repeat across machines and a broker's display name need not equal the machine part of a Relaycast address. The desktop cannot safely join a fleet worker to a roster task until a per-worker detail contract supplies its canonical address or objective.
+
+Per-agent outgoing messages, PR mentions, transcript links, and terminal event streams are not present in `roster.list` or `fleet.list`. The desktop's `messages.history` is the signed-in person's one-to-one conversation with an endpoint, and `activity.list` describes deliveries to local agents; neither is a general history of what another agent sent. Agent Relay exposes workspace message search, while hosted shared sessions, RelayHistory, and `agent-relay node agent attach --json` hold other possible activity evidence. A follow-up core API should return a bounded, authorized per-agent view and capability links. It must enforce the signed-in person's access to private DMs and transcripts before the UI renders them. A separate short status with an update time or TTL should be set by the agent; the spawn task must not stand in for live status.
+
+Local session registrations already publish `cloud_user_id`, `cloud_workspace_id`, and `owner_hash` from the signed-in account. Fleet spawn publishes declared organization, project, workstream, role, and objective, but no owner identity. The desktop therefore leaves many fleet workers in **Other live agents**. Cloud node enrollment has a `createdBy` user ID, but the roster has no node ID and the desktop's fleet listing is local to the machine. [AgentWorkforce/relay#1895](https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay/issues/1895) tracks publishing the workspace-scoped owner identity from trusted enrollment and spawn paths. Ownership should be fixed at that source and published as the same owner metadata as local sessions. A future app fallback would require an authenticated node-to-person mapping supplied by the core; a matching host or workspace alone is insufficient proof of ownership.

+# Agent-driven setup
+
+Agent Relay exposes setup through the same private per-user Unix socket that
+registered sessions use for replies. A running Codex, Claude or Devin session may use
+these routes before it has a Relaycast identity. The app authenticates the
+caller from kernel peer credentials and process ancestry; it never trusts a
+session id supplied in a request.
+
+## Headless Ubuntu installation
+
+The supported server path is a current Ubuntu LTS `.deb`, a systemd user
+service, and lingering so delivery survives the SSH login that installed it.
+Replace `x64` with `arm64` when appropriate:
+
+This path requires passwordless sudo or one human-approved sudo prompt for the
+package install and `loginctl enable-linger`. Never capture or relay a sudo
+password.
+
+```sh
+release=https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/latest/download
+curl -fLO "$release/AgentRelay-Linux-x64.deb"
+curl -fLO "$release/AgentRelay-Linux-x64.deb.sha256"
+sha256sum --check AgentRelay-Linux-x64.deb.sha256
+sudo apt install ./AgentRelay-Linux-x64.deb
+systemctl --user daemon-reload
+systemctl --user enable agent-relay.service
+systemctl --user restart agent-relay.service
+sudo loginctl enable-linger "$USER"
+systemctl --user is-active agent-relay.service
+```
+
+The service runs `/usr/lib/agent-relay/agent-relay-probe relay serve --headless`.
+It imports no GTK module,
+serves the session socket, supervises uploads, discovers Codex and Claude
+processes inside tmux/SSH process trees, and delivers messages without a
+display. Headless startup also removes the app-owned
+`~/.config/autostart/agent-relay.desktop` entry left by an older GUI setup;
+the systemd user unit is the sole startup owner and does not use the GUI-only
+`--background` flag. Unrelated autostart entries are preserved. The tarball contains the same unit at
+`usr/lib/systemd/user/agent-relay.service` for administrators who install a
+relocatable tree themselves.
+
+Headless startup applies the agent-led defaults: Claude Code direct delivery,
+automatic activation of every eligible interactive session, and upload mode
+`selected`: nothing uploads until a session is chosen, as in the apps. A sign-in
+through `/setup/sign-in` installs the uploader in that mode. The bootstrap never
+changes an install's sharing mode, so it never widens what an install shares and
+never narrows a mode its owner chose (`new` or `all` from Settings). A durable
+one-time bootstrap also runs before the first `/setup/*` request on Linux and
+macOS. Explicit changes made through those routes afterward, `POST
+/setup/sharing` with `new` or `all` included, survive status reads and app
+restarts.
+
+Provider subscriptions from a registered local session use the private socket
+described below. They do not expose or require a workspace key. The separate
+npm `agent-relay` CLI remains available to workspace operators and fleet agents
+that already have a workspace key.
+
+The `.sha256` file is part of every release. Do not install an artifact whose
+checksum fails. Alpine, RHEL, and old-glibc hosts are not the default package
+path.
+
+## Scriptable macOS installation
+
+Download the release DMG and its `.sha256`, verify it, mount it, and copy the
+signed app. Starting the app once creates the private socket; the setup API
+does not require its window.
+Copy the app before opening it. Registering the helper from a mounted DMG
+records that volume as its parent; after ejection, launchd cannot start it.
+The app refuses background registration outside `/Applications` or
+`~/Applications` so this install order is enforced.
+
+```sh
+case "$(uname -m)" in
+  arm64) relay_arch=arm64 ;;
+  x86_64) relay_arch=x64 ;;
+  *) printf 'Unsupported Mac architecture: %s\n' "$(uname -m)" >&2; exit 2 ;;
+esac
+release=https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/latest/download
+curl -fL "$release/AgentRelay-macOS-$relay_arch.dmg" -o AgentRelay.dmg
+curl -fL "$release/AgentRelay-macOS-$relay_arch.dmg.sha256" -o AgentRelay.dmg.sha256
+sed "s#AgentRelay-macOS-$relay_arch.dmg#AgentRelay.dmg#" AgentRelay.dmg.sha256 | shasum -a 256 --check -
+volume=$(hdiutil attach -nobrowse -readonly AgentRelay.dmg | awk '/\/Volumes\// {sub(/^.*\/Volumes\//,"/Volumes/"); print; exit}')
+ditto "$volume/Agent Relay.app" "/Applications/Agent Relay.app"
+hdiutil detach "$volume"
+open -a "Agent Relay"
+```
+
+Release asset names may include a version; use the names and checksums listed
+on the release when the stable aliases are unavailable.
+
+If the socket is still absent after 30 seconds, inspect the core job with
+`launchctl print "gui/$(id -u)/com.agentrelay.desktop.core"`. A job showing
+`job state = spawn failed`, `last exit code = 78: EX_CONFIG`, and
+`program identifier = Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper` has lost its app
+bundle path in macOS Background Task Management. Repeated SMAppService
+registration and toggling Login Items did not repair the affected record. Builds with
+the fallback repair register a user LaunchAgent with an absolute path to the
+bundled helper. Check `launchctl print "gui/$(id -u)/com.agentrelay.desktop.core.local"`
+and wait for the socket again. Do not use `sfltool resetbtm`: it resets other
+apps' background items too.
+
+## Finding the socket
+
+The app writes the absolute socket path, followed by a newline, to:
+
+```sh
+socket=$(cat "$HOME/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket")
+```
+
+The pointer and socket are mode `0600`; their parent directories are mode
+`0700`. On Linux the normal socket is
+`$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock`. Setup requests must run from inside
+the Codex, Claude or Devin process tree they are configuring. A same-user process can
+already read the app's private credential store, so pre-registration setup
+does not widen the existing same-user trust boundary. Other users and an
+unrelated same-user process are rejected.
+
+Claude Code records each running session in
+`~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json` (under `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` when set), and the
+Desktop identifies a Claude caller from that file. The file is read up to the
+end of its first JSON value, so a complete record followed by stray bytes still
+names its session. When the caller's nearest session is a running Claude Code
+process whose file does not parse at all, every route answers HTTP 409
+`session_file_unreadable` with the file's path and the parse error. A file
+counts as the running session's when one of its `<pid>.<hash>.key` files
+records that process's start time. Claude Code writes the file when a session
+starts, so exiting the session and resuming it with `claude --resume` makes it
+readable again; the Desktop never writes Claude Code's files.
+
+## Setup contract
+
+All responses use `{"ok":true,"data":…}` or
+`{"ok":false,"error":{"code":…,"message":…}}`.

+| `POST /setup/sharing` | `{"mode":"selected"}`, `new`, or `all` |
+| `POST /setup/auto-activate` | `{"enabled":true}`; eligible interactive sessions are activated automatically, subject to the safety limits below |

+
+## Subscribe this agent to one GitHub pull request
+
+Run this single command inside the registered Codex, Claude or Devin session that
+should receive the events, giving it the address `gh pr create` printed or the
+`owner/repo#number` shorthand:
+
+```sh
+~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe relay subscribe https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/skills/pull/120
+```
+
+The command finds the socket through the pointer file, sends one request, and
+prints the JSON answer; it exits non-zero when the Desktop refuses. It takes no
+agent name: the Desktop identifies the calling session from the process, as it
+does for `/register`. It uses the signed-in account and the calling session's
+saved relay identity; no workspace key or provider token is put in the agent's
+environment, argv, or request. If GitHub is not connected, finish the one-time
+connection page the Desktop opens; the command waits up to seven minutes for
+that, longer than the five the Desktop allows. A production Desktop creates
+`~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe` when it starts and keeps it at its own version
+on Linux and macOS; a development build leaves that copy alone, so run its own
+bundled probe with `--dev`, which reads Agent Relay Dev's pointer
+(`relay-socket.dev`). The command never falls back from one build's pointer to
+the other's.
+
+`agent-relay-probe relay` commands wait up to 60 seconds for the Desktop to
+answer. When it does not answer in time the command fails with "Agent Relay
+did not answer METHOD ROUTE within 60 seconds. This is not a setup problem;
+the core is still running. Try again shortly." The route is named without its
+query. Retry the same command; do not re-run setup.
+
+Repeating the command is safe. When the session already holds that
+subscription the answer is a success carrying `"already_subscribed":true`, and
+no cloud request is made, so an agent can run it after every pull request it
+opens without first checking state. A subscription still being made or cleaned
+up is not reported as held; the request goes through and can return `refused`
+or `busy` until it settles.
+
+`agent-relay-probe relay subscribe --remove <pull request>` ends it. Either
+spelling of the pull request ends a subscription made with the other.
+
+Only a registered session can subscribe; an unregistered one receives
+`not_a_relay_session` with "Register this session before subscribing it", and
+`POST /register` first fixes that. The command accepts exactly one numbered
+pull request: a whole repository, a raw path glob, another provider, or an
+address that is not `https://github.com/<owner>/<repo>/pull/<number>` is
+rejected before the socket is opened.
+
+The equivalent raw request, for clients that cannot run the probe, is one
+`POST` with the same resource. On macOS, a Codex session under the shared app
+server must use the probe command: the system `curl` hides the session's
+identity and is answered `not_a_relay_session`.
+
+```sh
+curl -fsS --unix-socket "$(cat "$HOME/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket")" \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  --data '{"provider":"github","resource":"AgentWorkforce/skills#120"}' \
+  http://relay/integrations/subscribe
+```
+
+A session started by the Agent Relay fleet broker already answers to its fleet
+name and cannot register here: `/register` answers `not_a_relay_session` with
+"This session is already managed by this computer's relay", and the subscribe
+command asks it to register. It subscribes with the workspace CLI instead, which needs
+`agent-relay` 13.0.0 or newer: `agent-relay integration subscribe github
+--resource '/github/repos/<owner>/<repo>/pulls/<number>/**' --to @<its name>
+--no-input`. Older CLIs let the worker's `RELAY_AGENT_TOKEN` displace the
+workspace key and fail with `Workspace key required (rk_live_...)`; prefix the
+command with `env -u RELAY_AGENT_TOKEN` there.
+
+One numeric PR subscription receives new review comments, submitted reviews,
+issue comments on the PR, and check-run events. Relayfile correlates those
+events by the PR's stable resource reference even though their stored paths can
+be under `reviews/`, `issues/`, `comments/`, or `checks/` rather than the pull
+directory. The injected session text has this shape:
+
+```text
+[via Agent Relay — from @__relay_webhook__ to @connect-skill · message m_… · ref …]
+
+Github pull_request_review_comment.created
+<event summary and record>
+Relayfile path: /github/repos/AgentWorkforce/skills/comments/…
+```
+
+`pull_request.closed` is injected before the binding is removed automatically;
+GitHub uses that action for both closed and merged pull requests. Failed or
+interrupted cleanup is retried by the Desktop, and an unfinished binding for a
+different resource does not block this request.
+
+`GET /setup/status` answers at once from the last known state; it never
+waits on Relaycast, Cloud, or the uploader, and it never runs session
+discovery: whether interactive sessions still await activation is checked in
+the background and the last answer is reported. Work still in progress reads
+as pending:
+
+| Field | Values |
+| --- | --- |
+| `relaycast` | Relaycast's verification of the workspace key: `pending` while it is being asked, then `verified`, `rejected`, or `unreachable` (asked again on the next refresh); `null` while no workspace key is found |
+| `defaults` | `applied` once the agent-led defaults hold with a workspace signed in or an explicit setup choice was made, else `pending` |
+| `uploader` | The last uploader check (below); `{"running":false,"healthy":false,"pending":true}` before the first check answers |
+| `unreadable_session_files` | Running Claude Code sessions whose `<pid>.json` does not parse, each `{"path","pid","error"}`; such a session is invisible to discovery and its commands receive `session_file_unreadable`. Empty when every file reads |
+
+`uploader` holds:
+
+| Field | Values |
+| --- | --- |
+| `running`, `paused` | Whether the collector runs, and whether the person paused uploads |
+| `stage` | `not_running`, `paused`, `needs_attention`, `conflict`, `offline`, `preparing`, `uploading`, or `up_to_date` |
+| `healthy` | `running`, no delivery failure, and a stage other than `needs_attention`, `conflict`, `offline`, or `not_running` |
+| `stalled` | Queued records have had no acknowledgement for five minutes, whatever the failure, while the collector runs unpaused and is not being replaced or upgrading; the stage is then `needs_attention`, except that a receiver conflict keeps `conflict` and a failed cycle with no delivery failure keeps `offline` |
+| `failure_code` | Why delivery fails: `transient`, `rate_limited`, `authentication_required`, `permission_denied`, `invalid_payload`, `receiver_rejected`, `unsupported_evidence`, `mapping_version_mismatch`, or `delivery_conflict`; `null` when it does not |
+| `renewal_failure` | With `authentication_required`, why the upload sign-in could not be renewed from Agent Relay's own: `no_cloud_session`, `cloud_refused`, `cloud_unreachable`, or `wrong_destination`; else `null` |
+| `pending_records` | Records queued and not yet acknowledged |
+| `last_acknowledged_ms` | When an upload was last acknowledged (Unix ms); `null` before the first |
+
+An upload blocked on `authentication_required` renews by itself: the core
+refreshes the app's Cloud sign-in while the block lasts (backing off from one
+supervision period to 32 while refresh fails), and the collector renews the
+upload sign-in from it on its next pass.
+
+Each status read starts a fresh uploader check in the background, so polling
+status keeps `uploader` current. `POST /setup/auto-activate` with
+`enabled:true` reports the activation it starts, so it waits on Relaycast
+registration; status and the other setup routes do not wait behind it.
+If the request times out, `auto_activate:true` in status confirms only that
+the preference was saved. Check the session's `registered` state and
+`defaults_error` before treating activation as complete.
+
+After the first agent-led setup request, `/setup/status` reports
+`sharing_mode:"selected"` (or the mode the install already had),
+`auto_activate:true`, and `direct_delivery:true`.
+The direct-delivery default, like the apps' first-run setup, sets `accept`
+only when the user's own `~/.claude/settings.json` does not name
+`crossSessionInbound`. A key that is present, with any value (`hold`,
+`refuse`), is the user's explicit choice and is kept: status then reports
+`direct_delivery:false` with `direct_delivery_user_choice:"hold"` and no
+`defaults_error`. An absent key reads as unset. **Ask again** and
+`{"enabled":false}` write `"hold"`, so they are kept as choices. Only an explicit
+`{"enabled":true}` overrides a kept choice; ask the human first.
+The calling session's effective delivery state remains available at
+`session.direct_delivery`. If organization-managed Claude settings forbid
+`crossSessionInbound:"accept"`, status reports `direct_delivery:false` and a
+`defaults_error` with code `managed_policy`; an explicit direct-delivery call
+returns HTTP 409 with the same code. The app never edits the managed file.
+
+Auto-activation is deliberately narrower than session discovery. It admits
+interactive Codex/Claude sessions, live Devin CLI sessions, and open Grok sessions
+whose leader is reachable, excluding Agent SDK, `claude -p`, structured
+pipe-driven Claude runs, `codex exec`, and sessions owned by the fleet broker.
+Muse sessions are added only when Agent Relay starts and owns them. Sessions
+beneath the system temporary roots are excluded by default. Set the colon-separated
+`AGENT_RELAY_AUTO_ACTIVATE_EXCLUDED_DIRS` environment variable on the app or
+service to replace those roots; an empty value disables only the directory
+filter. At most five sessions are registered per minute and twenty
+auto-activated identities may be active. An auto-activated identity whose
+eligible process ends is removed after a five-minute grace period. A manually
+enabled or self-registered identity whose session ends keeps its name and its
+queued messages, but is neither listed nor heartbeated as present until the
+session runs again.
+
+`POST /setup/sign-in` returns `pending_approval` plus
+`verification_url`, `verification_url_complete`, `user_code`, `expires_at`,
+and `interval`. Existing callers retain device approval, which works from
+another computer or phone. The secret device code stays in the app.
+
+Local setup clients can pass `{"flow":"browser"}` to use the desktop's normal
+sign-in: reuse an eligible saved session, otherwise open
+`verification_url_complete` on the same computer. Cloud reuses the browser's
+signed-in session or opens Google when needed, then returns to the app through
+its PKCE loopback handoff. Open this URL even when `user_code` is null;
+`interval` is also null in the browser flow. There is no code confirmation or
+separate device approval screen. Remote/headless clients should omit `flow`
+or explicitly pass `{"flow":"device"}`. Poll `GET /setup/status` until it
+reports `signed_in`, `expired`, `denied`, or `error`.
+Browser setup starts with `preparing` while it checks and refreshes existing
+logins in the background. If browser sign-in is needed, it moves to
+`pending_approval` during polling. Status then includes the same public
+approval fields and `sign_in_phase`; open `verification_url_complete` to continue.
+
+When an eligible same-origin CLI or saved app login is found, status reports
+`reused_login:true`; no device code is issued. Workspace connection and the
+required new-session baseline continue in the background. Cancellation remains
+available while Cloud refreshes an existing login.
+A refresh already submitted to Cloud finishes saving its rotated credentials
+after cancellation; the cancelled setup does not continue connecting.
+
+While sign-in is `preparing`, the sign-in response includes `phase`, `message`,
+`poll_after_seconds`, and, once the local scan starts, `progress`. Status exposes
+the same information as `sign_in_phase`, `sign_in_message`,
+`poll_after_seconds`, and `sign_in_progress`. `checking_existing_login` means
+the app is looking for a reusable same-origin CLI or saved app login without
+yet claiming that one exists; `reusing_existing_login` means that login is
+being reused; `waiting_for_browser` means Google sign-in is open;
+`waiting_for_device_approval` means the explicit device fallback is waiting
+for approval; `connecting_workspace` means sign-in succeeded; and
+`preparing_local_sessions` means the probe is
+scanning existing Codex and Claude history to establish the automatic-new-upload
+baseline. Progress includes the source, processed and total file counts when
+known, and locally captured session count. This scan can take about a minute on
+a large history and cannot be skipped without risking uploads of pre-existing
+sessions. Poll at `poll_after_seconds` until `signed_in`.
+
+Before sign-in, the shared probe also inspects older managed upload schedules.
+An active managed schedule blocks setup. A missing optional `crontab` program
+or missing cron spool counts as no legacy schedule; command execution,
+permission, and read failures remain an unknown inspection and require the
+documented explicit acknowledgement after a manual check.
+
+Completed status and the completed sign-in response include the signed-in
+workspace id and name. Status also names the signed-in person as
+`account: {"name", "email"}`, taken from `account.status`; it is `null` while
+no one is known on this computer. Multi-server rollouts should always pass
+their existing workspace UUID explicitly so every server joins the same
+workspace.
+
+Default registration names include a 128-bit session-derived suffix. Thus
+Codex and Claude sessions sharing one host and checkout still receive unique,
+unambiguous `name@direct` addresses. A successful `POST /register` returns the
+registered `name` and `address`, the caller-derived `session_id`, the effective
+`direct_delivery` state, and whether the registration already existed. These
+session fields match the values under `session` in `/setup/status`.
+
+No Cloud bearer, workspace key, or agent token is returned by any route or put
+in a session. A newly created webhook is the single exception: its secret is
+returned once, in the response to the identified calling session. Later calls
+return the webhook id and URL with a null secret.
+
+Integration setup uses the signed-in session to mint a short-lived,
+workspace-bound Relayfile credential and subscribes through relayfile-cloud
+directly. The relay core does this on both platforms; the session socket's
+`/integrations/subscribe` is the core's route on macOS and Linux alike. An
+operator's own Relayfile daemon, active workspace, and polling consumers are
+never touched. No Relaycast, agent, or Relayfile credential appears in argv,
+route output, or logs. The requested provider must already be connected in
+the selected workspace.
+
+### Resources for other providers
+
+`POST /integrations/subscribe` reads a GitHub `resource` as `owner/repo`,
+`owner/repo#number`, a pull request's github.com address, or a `/github/…`
+path. Linear, Slack and Jira take only a raw path inside the provider's own
+Relayfile tree, `/<provider>/…`: native names for them cannot be resolved
+without guessing. A path into another provider's tree, a path containing
+`..`, or any other spelling is refused. One example each:
+
+| Provider | `resource` |
+| --- | --- |
+| Linear | `/linear/issues/ENG-123/**` |
+| Slack | `/slack/channels/C0123456789/**` |
+| Jira | `/jira/issues/ENG-42/**` |
+
+```sh
+curl -fsS --unix-socket "$(cat "$HOME/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket")" \
+  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+  --data '{"provider":"linear","resource":"/linear/issues/ENG-123/**"}' \
+  http://relay/integrations/subscribe
+```
+
+## REST polling alongside direct injection
+
+Direct injection is additive to a workspace-level REST consumer. The desktop
+acknowledges only the delivery queue belonging to the registered session
+identity; it does not mark workspace messages read or mutate another
+consumer's cursor. A polling integration should use its own identity/cursor,
+not the injectable agent token's `/v1/deliveries` queue.
+
+Every injected attribution header includes the canonical Relaycast message id
+and a short hash, for example:
+
+```text
+[via Agent Relay — from @reviewer to @codex-api · message msg_123 · ref a1b2c3d4e5f6]
+```
+
+When a polling MCP and injection can both surface the same workspace message,
+deduplicate on that full message id before acting. The short `ref` remains the
+reply-correlation marker; it is not the deduplication key.

+# Native Agent Relay Probe
+
+`agent-relay-probe` is the native collector for Cloud's new Teams onboarding flow.
+It signs a computer in, obtains workspace-scoped RelayHistory credentials, captures
+local coding sessions and runs durable delivery in the background. It needs no
+Node.js, npm, NAPI addon or separately installed Agent Relay CLI.
+
+## Source ownership
+
+The probe lives in [`probe/`](../probe/) and ships only inside the desktop app.
+It reads local history through the published `ai-hist` crate and owns its upload
+queue, worker, sharing policy, sign-in and transport. Where sessions live and
+how they are parsed stay in `ai-hist`.
+
+`--version`, `status --json`'s `probe_version` and the `cli_version` it reports
+are the desktop release the binary ships in: `scripts/build-probe.sh` stamps
+`AGENT_RELAY_PROBE_VERSION` at build time. A plain `cargo build` reports the
+crate version.
+
+## Build and run
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --release --bin agent-relay-probe --locked
+probe/target/release/agent-relay-probe --help
+```
+
+For local Cloud development, run in your own terminal:
+
+```sh
+./agent-relay-probe cloud install --site-url http://127.0.0.1:3100 --workspace WORKSPACE_ID --account USER_ID
+```
+
+The account argument asserts the expected signed-in user; it does not grant
+access. The workspace bridge authorizes membership and issues the scoped session.
+Without a workspace argument, the probe uses Cloud's current workspace.
+
+Setup prints the existing Cloud device-approval URL, waits for browser approval,
+then offers selected-session uploads as the default. Pressing Enter keeps all
+sessions local until selected; automatic uploads of new sessions or all history
+remain explicit choices. `--selected-sessions-only`, `--new-sessions-only`, and
+`--include-existing` make the choice explicit in a noninteractive terminal.
+`--force-login` bypasses eligible existing CLI sign-in.
+The shared implementation reuses an unexpired official CLI credential only for
+the exact selected Cloud URL, and never writes or refreshes that CLI's auth
+file; `CLOUD_API_ACCESS_TOKEN` overrides both. Setup always prints the approval
+URL to stdout rather than requiring a terminal on stdin, because the composed
+local harness drives it through pipes.
+
+New-only mode snapshots every session identity the store holds evidence for —
+catalog rows, prompts, events and every other evidence table, including
+sessions not yet catalogued — before creating its delivery generation. The
+baseline is stored as durable delivery exclusions, which
+the coordinator rechecks whenever a batch is prepared, claimed and dispatched,
+so it does not grow the delivery configuration with local history. A setup
+abandoned between that snapshot and its delivery generation leaves the baseline
+behind; a later setup that chooses to share existing sessions withdraws it, so
+the choice that takes effect is always the one just made. Sessions
+discovered later are treated as new; this is a local capture baseline, not a
+guarantee about the actual creation time of files added later. The saved sharing
+choice is immutable on reconnect: a different explicit choice is refused, and
+`--keep-saved-sharing` makes the choice given apply to a new install only, so a
+reconnect keeps the saved one.
+
+Default setup starts a detached process. `--foreground` keeps it in the terminal;
+`--once` captures and delivers one bounded cycle. To inspect or stop it:
+
+```sh
+~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe status --site-url http://127.0.0.1:3100 --workspace WORKSPACE_ID --account USER_ID
+~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe stop --site-url http://127.0.0.1:3100 --workspace WORKSPACE_ID --account USER_ID
+```
+
+The executable must already be at that location to use these example paths.
+There is no launchd/systemd installation or automatic restart after reboot yet.
+Run setup again after restarting the machine. It preserves the existing queue.
+
+### Hosted teardown flush
+
+Cloud sandbox teardown invokes the hidden `history flush` command with a
+push-only session on stdin (or in a session file), a private state directory,
+and an absolute wall-clock budget. The state path should normally not exist so
+the probe can create it as `0700`. If Cloud creates it first, it must already
+be an empty same-owner `0700` directory; a conventional `0755` temporary
+directory is deliberately refused rather than silently made private after
+another process could have observed it.
+
+stdout is exactly one JSON summary line on success, refusal, usage error, or
+deadline. The command exits at the deadline plus a 250 ms watchdog grace even
+if the HTTP library is stuck below its request timeout (for example in DNS).
+The pushed bearer is fixed to that invocation: a 401 is final and never causes
+the probe to read, refresh, or overwrite a stored desktop credential.
+
+The state directory may be retained to resume the same durable queue. If Cloud
+instead re-flushes the same provider history into a fresh state directory, the
+new store has a new origin and origin-bound revision IDs, while logical
+`record_id`, source `revision`, and payload remain stable. RelayHistory stores
+both origin-scoped deliveries; its downstream projection uses the stable
+logical identity to deduplicate what readers see.
+
+## Indexing order
+
+Both desktop apps start new installs with selected-session uploads. Discovery
+lists metadata newest first without fully indexing or uploading unselected
+sessions. Reconnecting preserves the workspace's saved sharing choice.
+
+For automatic-upload modes, the probe first discovers the catalog and fully
+indexes uncaptured sessions in descending last-activity order across providers
+and shared Claude folders: the last 24 hours, the rest of the week, then older
+history. Completed sessions are skipped if that backfill is interrupted. A
+regular provider sweep follows to capture sessionless evidence and retry any
+sessions that could not be hydrated individually. Providers without usable
+catalog metadata or targeted hydration still rely on that sweep.
+
+## State and delivery
+
+Uploads come from `ai-hist`'s change feed. An all-sources job drains every
+change of its kinds from the feed's start, which is its bootstrap, and then
+follows the feed from where it stopped. A selected-sessions job follows the
+feed for its members only; each member added is backfilled with a drain of
+its own session from the feed's start to the head at the time it was added.
+Nothing is copied out of the evidence tables until a batch is prepared, so
+there is no upload journal, retention cap or compaction of pending history.
+Selected-session delivery runs before targeted hydration and independently of
+unrelated provider discovery.
+
+A record keeps the identity the receiver already holds: `record_id` is the
+SHA-256 of the record's key (its kind and the stored values of its table's
+identity columns) as compact JSON, and `payload` is the stored row. Its
+`revision` is the feed revision plus the install's `revision_base`, which stays
+above every revision the install has issued, so the receiver always replaces
+an older copy. A replaced database, whose feed counts from zero again, moves
+the base above the highest revision issued and restarts every job. A new
+epoch of the same feed, as `ai-hist` draws when it retires a kind without
+renumbering anything, keeps every job where it was: the install adopts the
+epoch once `SessionStore::resumes_from` confirms that the highest position its
+upload tables hold still names the same revision, asked of each kind's stream
+on its own, since the probe stops draining a retired kind itself.
+
+A batch holds at most 100 records, the protocol's limit, and at most 2 MiB
+less 64 KiB of JSON, so with its request envelope it stays under the
+receiver's 2 MiB request cap. A server that publishes its limits in its
+receipts (`limits: {maxRecords, maxRequestBytes}`) raises the record cap for
+the batches prepared after that receipt, up to 500, and can lower the byte
+cap; a receipt without them returns to 100, and a batch already prepared is
+sent as it is (see the probe README); its body as retained in the queue, which
+escaping can double, may take up to 4 MiB plus 64 KiB. A batch is sized as it
+fills, one record at a time. A delivery generation created by an older build
+with that build's defaults (1 MiB batches) runs with these; its stored
+configuration is left as written.
+
+A record too large for a batch on its own, such as a tool result that printed
+megabytes, is shortened to fit rather than stopping the job. Its longest text
+columns are cut, longest first, and end with `[truncated by Agent Relay to
+fit the upload limit]`. A column holding a JSON document is cut inside, at its
+longest strings, so it stays valid JSON. A row with a `payload_truncated`
+column has it set, while `payload_bytes` and `payload_hash` keep describing
+the original. The record keeps its `record_id` and `revision`. A record whose
+bulk is not in text it can cut is suppressed like withheld evidence, and the
+job moves past it. A batch that cannot be prepared for any other reason is
+reported as `upload_preparation_failed`, not as an offline sync.
+
+Before a request is persisted or sent, every direct payload column whose name
+ends in `_json` is decoded as a JSON document. U+0000 in its keys or values and
+unpaired UTF-16 surrogate escapes are replaced with U+FFFD, then the document
+is encoded again. Invalid JSON text is preserved as an opaque JSON string, so
+the receiver can store it without dropping its readable content. If repairing
+a legacy prepared body makes it exceed the wire limit, the opaque value is cut
+with the same visible truncation marker (and `payload_truncated` is set when
+that row has the flag). Ordinary text
+columns do not interpret typed `\u0000` text; only an actual U+0000 is replaced.
+Clean request bodies remain byte-for-byte identical. This wire check also
+repairs prepared bodies persisted by older builds, without changing record IDs,
+revisions, or the stored batch. The worker stores each body it prepares with
+the build that prepared it (version and Git revision); a body this build
+prepared, whose SHA-256 still matches, is already in wire form and is sent
+without being decoded and checked again. Every other body is checked before
+it is sent.
+
+Every sharing mode uploads every evidence kind: prompts, session events, tool
+calls, file edits, the session catalog, presences, relationships, commit links,
+connector observations and their evidence, and session markers. Trajectories
+are no longer uploaded: a job stored by an earlier build that still lists them
+drops the kind when it is loaded, and a batch it had already prepared with
+trajectory records is still sent.
+What a mode withholds is consent, not kinds. `all` shares every session that
+is not excluded, and prompts logged with no session. `new` withholds the
+sessions its baseline excluded and every prompt with no session, since no
+exclusion can prove when such a prompt began. `selected` shares only member
+sessions. A relationship discloses both its sessions, so it leaves only when
+its parent is shared and its child is shared too or unlinked, checked when a
+batch is prepared and again before dispatch. Under `selected`, a member added
+after its parent receives the edges naming it through its own backfill.
+
+A build whose `ai-hist` reads a newer schema than local history holds
+migrates it only in the collector, the process that holds the collector lock.
+On a large store the migration runs for minutes. The desktop runs `status`,
+`sessions list`, pause, resume and compaction under timeouts, and a migration
+they start and then get killed out of rolls back while holding off the
+collector, so none of them migrates: `status` answers with `last_cycle.error_class`
+`upgrading`, and the others refuse with the same safe message until the
+collector has finished. A migration that fails after readiness (a full disk,
+a damaged store) does not end the run: it reports the classified cause as that
+run's `last_cycle`, which `status` then shows in place of `upgrading`, and
+retries, withdrawing that report once the store opens. When `status` cannot
+read the store at all (it cannot open it, or a table is damaged), it answers
+with the profile and that report alone rather than failing. `status` and `sessions list` also ask the change feed,
+since a store that predates only the feed opens and lists sessions as before.
+The collector records readiness before it opens the
+store, so setup's startup wait cannot kill it mid-migration either. It also
+records the build that launched it in `runtime.json`; `status` reports
+`collector_outdated` when that is another build, and `start` stops such a
+collector and launches the bundled one, which the desktop does on its next
+status read after an update. Replacement uses the collector's
+generation-scoped cooperative stop and waits through a long capture, subject
+to a ten-minute bound rather than the interactive stop command's 45-second
+deadline. If that bound expires, the command hands ownership to a detached
+helper; it keeps the generation-scoped stop, waits for the old collector to
+release its lock, and starts the bundled build. This covers a stop already
+consumed by a long capture instead of leaving the install stopped. While a live
+replacement or its helper owns the desktop control lock, status reports
+`collector_replacing`; desktop apps show **Replacing the uploader** and do not
+start a competing replacement. Sharing changes wait without a client deadline
+because the same command that stops the collector must apply the change and
+restart it.
+
+An install whose uploads ran on the former `export` journal is rebuilt the
+first time its collector opens it, in one transaction: it keeps `origin_id`
+and records `revision_base` from the journal's sequence, drops the journal's
+capture triggers, tables and indexes and every unsent batch, and restarts each
+job from the feed's start and each member's backfill, keeping sharing mode,
+pause state, members and exclusions, and moves each job's stored selection to
+every kind. Only the collector lock's holder
+rebuilds; pause, resume and compaction never do, so they are safe beside an
+older collector still running after an upgrade.
+
+The desktop status `last_cycle` includes an optional, allowlisted `error_class`
+and a safe message for database corruption, disk-space, contention, and
+permission failures. These also cover failures before capture starts. No raw
+SQLite/provider error, transcript, credential, or path is included. Capture
+and delivery are reported separately in `last_cycle.capture` and
+`last_cycle.delivery`, each with its own `ok`, `error_class` and message: a
+pass that only delivered reports its own delivery outcome and leaves the last
+capture verdict standing, so a condition the capture cycle measured stays
+visible between those cycles. Each report names the collector run that wrote
+it (`startup_id`), and a run carries forward only its own capture verdict:
+`status` shows `last_cycle` only when it is the report of the run
+`runtime.json` names, so a restarted collector never inherits the previous
+run's verdict while its first capture pass, minutes long on a large history,
+is still running. Capture runs on its own thread from the start of the run
+(see [Live capture](#live-capture)). A run reports as soon as it has opened
+the store, before capture or delivery has observed anything, so a run stopped
+during its first sweep still leaves a report of its own; each delivery pass
+then reports the capture thread's latest verdict. The top-level `ok`, `error_class` and `message`
+are the effective verdict — the capture fault when there is one, otherwise the
+delivery fault. Database corruption requires separate recovery from a
+preserved copy; the collector does not delete or recreate a damaged queue
+automatically.
+
+A pass that drained also reports `last_cycle.delivery_metrics`, numbers only:
+`drains`, `drain_ms`, `batches_sent`, `bytes_sent`, `batches_acknowledged`,
+`records_acknowledged`, `batches_per_second`, `records_per_second`,
+`send_ms_total`, `send_ms_mean` and `send_ms_max` (time inside the request,
+per batch), `queue_ms_max` (the longest a batch waited from preparation to
+acknowledgment), `event_lag_ms` (how long before its acknowledgment the
+newest delivered record was written, by the record's own `ts_ms` or
+`timestamp_ms`: end-to-end lag, from the agent writing a line to the
+receiver acknowledging it, once the job keeps up, now that capture follows
+filesystem events; the age of the history reached during a backfill), and
+the queue the pass left, `pending_records`,
+`unqueued_changes` (counted up to 256) and `oldest_pending_age_ms`. `status
+--json` also reports `delivery.oldest_pending_age_ms`, how long the oldest
+unacknowledged batch has waited. Pipelined delivery adds `in_flight_limit`
+(the most batches a pass may keep in flight, 4), `max_in_flight` (the most it
+did) and `batches_retried` (batches claimed again after an earlier attempt
+that did not acknowledge them: a retry, or a resumption after a stop).
+
+Every pass report also carries `last_cycle.capture_metrics`, the capture
+thread's counts since the run started, numbers and fixed labels only: `mode`
+(`watch`, `timer` or `members`), `driver` (`fs-events`, `polling`, `timer`,
+`member-events` or `member-poll`), `fallback_reason` (see [Live capture](#live-capture)),
+`watching_since_ms` (when the watcher attached),
+`ticks`, `ticks_by_trigger` (`fs-event`, `poll`),
+`ticks_swept`, `ticks_unchanged`, `ticks_contended`, `ticks_failed`,
+`ticks_waking_delivery`, `sessions_changed`, `sweeps` with `sweep_ms_last`
+and `sweep_ms_max` (the sweeps the thread runs itself: the first, the forced
+catch-up once the watcher is attached, and each one of the timer fallback),
+`tick_ms_last` and `tick_ms_max` (how long the watch's own sweeps took),
+`ticks_paced` and `duty_wait_ms_total` (the event sweeps that waited past
+their debounce for the pace, and how long they waited in all), `capture_lag_ms` and `capture_lag_ms_max` (from the
+modification time of the newest transcript a tick captured to that tick's
+report: debounce, pace, sweep and hand-off together), selected mode's `hydrations`
+and `member_polls_changed` (the rounds that hydrated a member), and `last_capture_ms`.
+A tick is one sweep of the watch: `fs-event` for an event's, `poll` for the
+backstop's or the polling driver's.
+
+Each `(site origin, user, workspace)` has an independent SHA-256-named directory
+under `~/.agentworkforce/probe/`. It contains an SDK-owned `history.db`, persisted
+selection/job metadata, scoped RelayHistory auth, a log, a runtime record and a
+collector lock. Directories are mode 0700; credentials/config/logs are mode 0600.
+On macOS and Linux, `collector.log` stays in this private install directory so
+diagnostics survive restarts. It rotates at 10 MiB, retaining three older files
+(`collector.log.1` through `.3`, newest first). A dedicated thread checks once a
+second, including during long capture/delivery passes and shutdown, and moves
+both output streams to the fresh log. Retention is approximately 40 MiB per
+install; a file can exceed 10 MiB by the output written between checks. Rotation
+is best effort when the filesystem is unavailable. A temporary directory would
+not provide this retention policy and could lose diagnostics on reboot.
+No Cloud bearer credential is persisted by the probe. Tokens are never command
+arguments, and provider errors, response bodies and session content are not logged.
+The device approval URL is intentionally displayed in the interactive terminal.
+
+Each pass delivers through the probe-owned Rust worker, with up to four
+batches of the job in flight: the next batch is prepared, persisted and
+validated while the others are on the wire. A pass is bounded by wall time
+(15 s), so it moves as many batches as the destination accepts in that window;
+while the active job has queued batches, unexamined feed changes or an
+unfinished backfill it can attempt now, and the pass acknowledged some, the
+next pass starts at once, so a backlog drains back to back. A pass that moved
+nothing while that backlog remains (it failed, or the destination accepted
+nothing) is followed 2 s later, and passes run 20 s apart once the job is
+caught up, paused, or waiting out a retry deadline, unless the capture thread
+wakes the loop first: a capture tick that wrote starts the next pass at once.
+A pass reads the job's
+status once for its own checks, and the queue its last drain left decides the
+next pass's gap, so passes do not each re-read the change feed. Capture runs on
+its own thread and never waits for delivery, and delivery never waits for a
+capture sweep: a backlog only means the drain is busy, and new local activity
+is captured and queued behind it as it happens. Stop requests are polled
+between batches. Consecutive batches reuse
+kept-alive HTTP connections and the stored session, which is read again near
+its expiry or after a failed send, and a drain opens local history once
+rather than per batch. The job's acknowledged position only moves through a
+contiguous run of acknowledged batches: a batch that fails while later ones
+are acknowledged holds the position back, the later ones stay delivered, and
+the failed one alone is retried after its backoff (see the probe README).
+A selected-sessions job pipelines the same way: its member backfills share
+the job's feed end, so the acknowledged position reaches that end only once
+every batch ending there resolves. The relayhistory-cloud
+server projects a workspace's batches one at a time, so concurrency mainly
+hides network latency and the probe's own preparation; throughput is bounded
+by the server's time per batch. The worker owns
+immutable batches, leases and their keepalive, prepared-byte persistence, the
+eligibility recheck immediately before dispatch, retry/backoff, acknowledgment
+and receipt compaction; the receiver owns only the consent and destination guards and
+the transport, so progress advances only on a validated receipt. Mapping/account
+mismatches block delivery. A failed attempt retains unacknowledged data and the
+job waits out its own backoff, which is normal operation rather than a fault.
+Transport credentials refresh through the existing RelayHistory auth
+implementation. The stored `rth_*` pair is only a cache of what the Cloud
+workspace bridge issued: when it dies (a revoked, expired or lost one-time
+refresh token), the job blocks on `authentication_required`, and the collector
+then asks the workspace bridge for a new session with Agent Relay's own sign-in
+— `CLOUD_API_ACCESS_TOKEN`, else the official CLI's credential for the same
+Cloud, else the desktop app's kept `cloudSession`, each with more than a minute
+left. It asks Cloud at most once every five minutes; finding no sign-in asks
+nothing, so it is checked on every pass. It never starts a device login in
+the background, and it adopts the new session only when it names the same
+history stage, organization and workspace; on success the job resumes with its
+queue intact. Otherwise it stays blocked and `status --json` keeps reporting
+`authentication_required` with `last_acknowledged_ms`, plus
+`delivery.renewal_failure` — `no_cloud_session`, `cloud_refused`,
+`cloud_unreachable` or `wrong_destination`, kept in the install's
+`renewal.json` — and a fixed sentence naming that cause in `delivery.failure`.
+
+A receiver HTTP 400 or 422 is treated as a possible record-content rejection.
+For a multi-record batch the adapter sends deterministic halves, within a
+32-request ceiling. It suppresses a rejected singleton only after a sibling
+batch has received a complete durable receipt. Rejected siblings are both
+searched, so several bad records can be isolated. Accepted IDs, proven skips,
+provisional singleton rejections, and the exact unfinished search frontier are
+saved separately on the immutable pending batch whenever the request or time
+ceiling interrupts that search; the next attempt resumes those subsets instead
+of repeating the same traversal, guaranteeing progress across restarts even
+when no accepted sibling or singleton was reached yet. Provisional rejections
+never increment the skipped count or advance the cursor. A receiver-wide
+rejection that accepts nothing, or an original singleton with no accepted
+sibling, remains blocked rather than becoming silent record loss; an explicit
+or new-build retry clears provisional rejections so a corrected receiver can
+try every record again. Other 4xx responses,
+authentication and permission failures, rate limits, oversized requests,
+transport errors and 5xx responses are never isolated. Split batch IDs are
+derived from the immutable parent ID and exact revision IDs and rely on the
+receiver contract's revision idempotency. Receiver-declared
+`unsupported_revision_ids` retain their protocol meaning and block for a later
+receiver upgrade. All locally omitted records still increment the internal
+`suppressed_records` accounting counter, while only receiver-isolated records
+increment `skipped_records`; desktop status uses the latter so consent and
+selection exclusions are never described as receiver skips. Logs include only
+the HTTP status, a validated receiver error code, correlation hashes and counts
+— never response bodies or record content.
+
+An HTTP 409 is recoverable only when `error.code` is exactly
+`delivery_conflict` and the receiver supplies the protocol's complete typed
+identity and digest detail. The probe compares every reported record with the
+exact persisted request body. It atomically archives the attempted batch,
+quarantines only verified conflicting revisions, and queues the remaining
+records under a deterministic new batch ID. A batch-ID conflict re-keys all
+records without quarantining any. Revisions are never raised to defeat the
+receiver's fence. The transition, prepared child body, and quarantine evidence
+survive a restart; later records keep draining. Missing or mismatched details
+block with `delivery_conflict` rather than silently skipping data. Progress
+reports the quarantine count and a delivery-conflict phase, and
+`agent-relay-probe conflicts` lists affected record and revision IDs without
+printing content. A corrected source row must first receive a new change-feed
+revision. `status --json` reports `delivery.quarantined_records`; keep
+`history.db` when asking support to inspect the archived attempt.
+
+Each new probe version retries a previously blocked job once, before setup
+delivery or background collection begins. Later starts of that version preserve
+its blocked verdicts. SQLite retains every `(job, build)` retry record and commits
+it atomically with the retry, so detached collectors, restarts and an A→B→A
+version rollback cannot grant a second attempt. The former `retry_build` column
+is imported into this history and maintained for older probes. File markers are
+imported only when `verdict-retry.json` explicitly names the same job; unscoped
+markers cannot safely identify a generation and are ignored. New jobs start
+their own retry history. Failure to save the compatibility file does not stop
+collection. If the database transaction fails, automatic recovery is deferred
+without committing either the retry or its build record. Paused and cancelled
+jobs remain unchanged.
+
+Local capture progress is written to private `progress.json` and emitted as
+`event: "progress"` on the desktop install JSON stream every three seconds.
+The count of captured sessions walks the whole catalog, so a report reuses a
+count up to 30 seconds old, and the end of a capture pass counts afresh; while
+a backlog's bootstrap is still running, a report does not scan the change feed
+for unqueued changes, which cannot change what it shows.
+Source names, files processed/total, and sessions captured never leave the Mac.
+Cloud heartbeats contain only delivery progress for permitted records; the legacy
+capture fields are empty/zero for wire compatibility, and capture-only monitors
+never send heartbeats. Changed delivery progress reports at most every three
+seconds. Completion and failure transitions report immediately. Unchanged delivery
+progress uses a jittered 270–330 second presence heartbeat; empty background
+cycles do not produce extra requests. Failed reports retry no faster than every 30 seconds,
+except for a new terminal transition or explicit setup/one-shot confirmation.
+Cloud determines whether session data has actually arrived. A running process
+alone does not mark the dashboard's data step complete.
+
+An OS file lock permits one collector per destination directory. Stop requests
+carry the startup identity, so an old stop file cannot stop a new run. There is
+no signaling of arbitrary stored PIDs; startup timeout terminates only the child
+process launched by that setup invocation.
+
+Setup and every delivery pass check legacy managed launchd/cron uploaders
+without changing them, and the receiver applies the verdict before mapping a
+batch and again before sending it, inspecting again once its verdict is 60
+seconds old; the collector's passes share one verdict, so back-to-back passes
+inspect at most once a minute (see the probe README's legacy scheduler guard). An active old
+uploader blocks setup and delivery. An
+unavailable inspection requires the explicit `--acknowledge-uninspected-schedules`
+flag after the user has checked their older schedules. Arbitrarily named/manual uploaders are not discoverable by this check.
+
+## Live capture
+
+A line an agent writes to its transcript reaches the receiver within about a
+second of the write (p50 about 520 ms, p95 about 1 s on a loopback receiver
+with appends half a second apart, against 60 s under the former capture
+timer). In `all` and `new` sharing modes the collector's capture thread runs
+one full, cancellable sweep of local history (waiting, if another process's
+sweep holds the store's sync lock, rather than failing), then registers its
+own filesystem watcher over every path `ai-hist`'s watch covers (filtered by
+its own `WatchedPath::admits`, as selected mode's inventory is). Once the
+watcher is attached, the thread sweeps once more, forced past the stat-only
+source fingerprint so each session's own stamp decides what is read, as an
+event's sweep is: it reads whatever was written while the first sweep ran,
+which no watcher was there to report. From then on every write is an event,
+so nothing written after the collector started waits for the backstop.
+
+- A write under a provider root (FSEvents on macOS, inotify on Linux, through
+  `notify`) owes a forced sweep. It runs once a 200 ms debounce has passed
+  (`live::WATCH_DEBOUNCE`) and the pace allows: the next sweep starts no
+  sooner than 10 times as long as the last one took after it ended
+  (`live::SWEEP_DUTY_FACTOR`), and never sooner than 1 s
+  (`live::SWEEP_MIN_GAP`), so capture holds at most about a tenth of a core
+  however busy the providers are. A live session writing its transcript
+  every couple of seconds used to drive a full sweep for every write, back to
+  back; it is now swept about once a second while sweeps are cheap, and at
+  ten times a sweep's cost apart when they are not. Events that arrive while
+  a sweep waits or runs are one sweep. Reads and metadata changes (opening a
+  provider's database, its `-shm` index) are not writes and ask for nothing.
+  A rescan (an inotify queue overflow, FSEvents reporting dropped events),
+  which names no path, a write event naming none, or a watcher error owes
+  the same forced sweep of every provider, and the watcher is registered
+  again before it.
+- Each sweep that swept or changed a catalog row wakes the delivery loop,
+  which drains at once instead of at its idle cadence.
+- The backstop runs when no sweep has for 60 s
+  (`live::CAPTURE_BACKSTOP_INTERVAL`): the same fingerprint-checked sweep the
+  former capture timer ran, for writes a platform never reports (network
+  mounts, some container filesystems). Before it, the watcher is registered
+  again if that would watch more: a provider root that did not exist yet, or
+  one whose registration failed. The backstop also bounds the pace, so a
+  change waits at most 60 s for its sweep however costly sweeps have become.
+- When no filesystem watcher can run, the loop polls at that same 60 s
+  cadence, which is the former timer, and `capture_metrics` says why in
+  `fallback_reason`: `fs_events_unavailable` (the backend could not attach:
+  no backend, too many watches, `EMFILE`), `no_provider_roots` (nothing to
+  attach to yet), or `disabled` (`AGENT_RELAY_PROBE_FS_EVENTS=0` in the
+  collector's environment). If the store cannot be opened for the watch, the
+  thread runs the timer itself (`mode: timer`, `fallback_reason:
+  watch_unavailable`). Each change of driver is logged as one content-free
+  JSON line.
+
+The detached collector (`run`, the session collector the relay core and
+`start` launch; in the Mac app it runs as the bundle's `Agent Relay Helper
+(Sessions)` hard link, a sibling `<core> (Sessions)` file being preferred
+whenever one exists) is a background process as a whole: on macOS a Darwin background
+process (`PRIO_DARWIN_BG`), whose CPU, disk and network use the system
+throttles; on Linux nice 19, set on its main thread before any other starts
+so every thread inherits it. A sweep and its delivery never compete with the
+agent writing the transcript it reads. In a process that stays at normal
+priority (a `start --foreground`), the capture thread and selected mode's
+inventory thread alone run at background priority (the background QoS class
+on macOS, which also throttles their disk I/O; nice 19 for the thread on
+Linux). The relay core itself keeps normal priority: the agents it starts
+would inherit a lower one. A platform that refuses either change is logged as
+one content-free JSON line (`stage: process_priority` or `thread_priority`)
+and capture runs as before.
+
+Every sweep is the same locked sweep as a full capture: it takes the store's
+sync lock itself, so `ai-hist`'s one-writer rules hold unchanged; one that
+finds the lock held reads nothing and, if it was an event's, is retried at
+the pace, at least a second apart. Delivery runs beside it on its own
+connections, reading the change feed and writing only its upload tables;
+SQLite's WAL lets the feed be read during a sweep, and the busy handlers on
+both sides (`ai-hist`'s retrying handler and the delivery connection's 30 s
+busy timeout) outlast a capture transaction, so neither side reports a
+locked database. Writes from the two threads overlap in tests without a busy
+error.
+
+A stop request ends the capture thread promptly: every sweep, the startup
+sweep and each event's or backstop's alike, is the store's own cancellable
+`sync`, and stops at its next provider, file or record boundary. The
+collector lock is released only after the thread has ended. While the
+startup sweep reports its file counts, delivery passes leave `progress.json`
+to it, so the desktop is not switched between the two every few seconds;
+Cloud heartbeats, which carry delivery only, are unaffected.
+
+Selected mode does not run this watch, whose sweeps enumerate every provider;
+it watches only its members' transcripts. See
+[Desktop bridge v1](#desktop-bridge-v1) for its member-scoped hydration.
+
+## Companion changes and distribution
+
+The probe depends on:
+
+- **Cloud:** device start/token/approval, `auth/whoami`, and the authenticated
+  workspace `relayhistory/session` bridge. The bridge returns an RTH sync session.
+- **RelayHistory service:** existing durable `/v1/delivery/batches` and the new
+  `/v1/onboarding/heartbeat` endpoint. The dashboard also uses the companion
+  onboarding-status route. These server changes live in their own repositories.
+- **agentrelay.com:** site-root `/install.sh` and platform downloads. The installer
+  should select the OS/architecture, verify SHA-256, install atomically to
+  `~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe`, and invoke `cloud install` with the dashboard's
+  site/account/workspace. A checksum from the same origin detects corruption;
+  it is not a separate publisher signature.
+- **Official Relay CLI:** an optional `agent-relay cloud install` alias may delegate
+  to the installed probe. The native onboarding path does not depend on it.
+
+### Distribution
+
+The desktop release workflow builds the probe for macOS (arm64, x64) and Linux
+(x64, arm64 glibc) and bundles it into the app and Linux packages; there is no
+standalone probe download. `probe-version.txt` beside each build records the
+version it reports.
+
+## Verification
+
+```sh
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --bin agent-relay-probe --locked
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --lib cloud:: --locked
+```
+
+`probe/tests/live_capture.rs` runs the collector against a synthetic home and
+a loopback receiver and requires a transcript line to be acknowledged within
+seconds; `LIVE_CAPTURE_APPENDS=10` prints the latency of each of ten appends
+with p50 and p95, `LIVE_CAPTURE_BINARY` measures another build, and the
+ignored `idle_cost` test reports an idle collector's CPU time.
+
+Regression tests cover Cloud's `201 Created` device grant, authorization polling,
+origin binding, official-CLI credential reuse, sharing choices, complete exclusion
+pagination, private atomic state, collector locking and stale stop requests. The
+sign-in tests live with the shared implementation, in the library's `cloud` module.
+
+For a composed local test, start the companion marketing proxy on 3100, Cloud
+on 3101 with its development-only Teams login and a local DB, and the local
+RelayHistory service. Then:
+
+```sh
+node scripts/test-probe-local.mjs --binary /absolute/path/to/agent-relay-probe
+```
+
+Node is used only by this test harness. The child probe gets a fresh synthetic
+home and `/usr/bin:/bin` PATH with no inherited provider credentials. The harness
+approves its own development device grant, sends a uniquely identified synthetic
+Claude session, reads that exact stored session, checks Cloud's `receiving` state,
+verifies private storage and stops the collector. It keeps credentials and the
+captured approval URL out of the test output, then removes its fixture directory.
+It refuses remote origins and must never run against production.
+
+## Desktop bridge v1
+
+The macOS companion uses `agent-relay-probe` for authentication, local credential
+storage, capture and delivery. All bridge commands accept `--json`; every JSON
+object has `bridge_version: 1`. Status output contains no credentials. Existing
+human-readable install/status/stop commands remain available.
+
+- `installs --json`: discover configured probe directories. Every directory
+  with a `config.json` is listed, whatever this build can read of it:
+  `upgrade_required` marks one a newer probe set up or last ran,
+  `collector_version` names the build that last ran its collector, and
+  `paused` is null when this build cannot read its store.
+- `cloud install --json --include-existing|--new-sessions-only|--selected-sessions-only`:
+  emit NDJSON `approval`, `authenticated`, `connected`, and `ready` events. The
+  browser approves the device; `authenticated` establishes the Agent Relay
+  login boundary before the probe provisions RelayHistory upload credentials.
+  `connected` confirms those upload credentials are stored. JSON setup requires
+  one explicit sharing choice and runs in the background. Reconnecting a
+  workspace whose collector is running stops that collector and starts this
+  build's when setup completes, or restarts the stopped one if setup fails. A
+  collector a newer probe runs or last ran is left alone, and setup and
+  `start` ask for an update. The desktop apps sign in with
+  `--selected-sessions-only --keep-saved-sharing` (`account.sign_in` with
+  `sharing:"selected"`): a fresh install uploads nothing until a session's
+  Upload switch is turned on, and an enabled session keeps uploading as it
+  changes, while signing in again to a workspace already set up here keeps
+  its saved choice (`new` or `all` included) rather than refusing it. Settings ›
+  Session sharing still offers `new` and `all` (`sharing set`). Selected
+  setup reads no transcript; it runs one shallow catalog pass of the newest
+  1,000 sessions into the install's store (`SETUP_CATALOG_LIMIT`, metadata
+  only, as the pre-install preview reads) before it reports ready, so the
+  session list is filled the moment the app attaches rather than once the
+  collector's first inventory pass has run.
+- `start`, `status`, `pause`, `resume`, `disconnect`, `compact`: pass
+  `--account ID`, `--workspace ID`, and optionally `--site-url URL`, plus
+  `--json`.
+- `compact <target> --json`: releases every settled batch receipt, under the
+  desktop control lock. Pending and unacknowledged batches are untouched, so it
+  is safe while the collector runs. It returns the receipts removed:
+
+  ```json
+  { "removed_records": 42 }
+  ```
+
+- `sessions list <target> --json --limit 500`: newest sessions with title,
+  source, project path, activity and upload status. `uploading` means a record
+  from the session is in a currently leased batch; `queued` means a pending
+  batch. `uploaded` means the job has examined every change of the session it
+  sends and none is in an unacknowledged batch, even while the rest of the
+  backlog is still draining: each listed session is one indexed read of its own
+  changes after the job's position (or, for a member still backfilling, not yet
+  uploaded; nor is a member that parents a relationship to a member still
+  backfilling, whose backfill sends that edge). The job's positions are read
+  before its pending batches, so a batch prepared during the listing is either
+  seen or still ahead of those positions. `shared` is used while a session has
+  changes still to examine. `checking` is used for an enabled session the
+  listing's five-second budget did not reach: it is neither proven uploaded
+  nor known to be waiting, and the apps show it as "Checking…" outside the
+  in-progress count. A listing keeps each proof in `session-status.json` beside
+  the store, with the feed head it holds through, so the next listing re-reads
+  only sessions changed since: one scan of the feed from the oldest proof finds
+  them. An all-sources job whose position is close to the feed head is decided
+  by one scan from that position instead of a read per session. A proof is
+  dropped when the job, its generation, selection, members or the stored
+  exclusions change, when the feed epoch changes, or when the job's position

+  account and workspace it lists every install (optionally only one site's);
+  with both it names that install, on `--site-url` or agentrelay.com, and fails
+  when it is not set up here. Each entry has `directory`, `site_url`,
+  `account_id`, `workspace_id`, `sharing_mode`, `change_pending` (a
+  `sharing-change.json` is still being applied) and `upgrade_required`: an
+  install a newer build set up is listed with `sharing_mode: null`. Plain `status <target>` ends
+  with a `Sharing:` line naming the same mode.
+
+Selected mode uses the core's normalized, deny-by-default session membership.
+A subagent or child thread is part of the session that delegated work to it,
+not a session of its own: the session list does not offer it, it cannot be
+selected or withheld on its own (`sessions include`/`exclude` refuse it and
+name its session), and it is shared with its session. Hydrating a member
+captures its delegated work with it, and after each hydration round the
+capture thread makes every delegated descendant of a selected session a
+member too (`delegated` in `delivery_session_members`), backfilled from the
+feed's start like any member and dropped, fenced, when its session is
+deselected. Forks, resumes and continuations are sessions of their own.
+Adding a session backfills it from the feed's start. Adding B keeps A's
+acknowledged progress and pending immutable batch; repeating an inclusion is a
+no-op. A removal fences an in-flight lease and is checked again before
+dispatch. Re-inclusion backfills the session again from the start. New
+discoveries stay private without writing an exclusion for every catalog row.
+The selected-session manifest is still written for desktop compatibility; its
+size follows explicit selections, not the machine's history. Session lists and
+status remain read-only.
+
+Selected delivery and targeted hydration run on separate threads, so a backlog
+never delays hydration and hydration never delays a drain. Hydration is
+scoped to what changed and follows filesystem events:
+
+- The capture thread watches the directory of each member's transcript (its
+  catalog row's file), without recursing. A write there that names a
+  member's transcript opens a 200 ms debounce window (`WATCH_DEBOUNCE`); when
+  it closes, one round compares each named member's transcript (modification
+  time and length) with what it last hydrated and hydrates the ones that
+  moved, then wakes delivery. A burst of appends is one round; sustained
+  writes hydrate about once per window. Writes to other sessions in the same
+  directory hydrate nothing.
+- A member of a source whose file holds many sessions (OpenCode's database)
+  moves with its own catalog row instead. Each inventory pass, which
+  refreshes the rows after a write to that database, has the next round
+  compare those members' rows, so another session's write does not
+  re-hydrate them.
+- Once a second (`MEMBER_POLL_INTERVAL`) the thread reads the job's state and
+  membership, so a member added or a job resumed is hydrated within about a
+  second, and stats the transcripts no watch covers: one whose directory
+  does not exist yet or could not be registered.
+- Every member is hydrated at startup and again every ten minutes
+  (`MEMBER_BACKSTOP_INTERVAL`), which covers a member with no local file to
+  compare and a write no event reported; each backstop also registers the
+  watch afresh.
+- When the watcher reports lost events (a queue overflow or a rescan) or
+  fails, the next round compares every member's transcript.
+- With `AGENT_RELAY_PROBE_FS_EVENTS=0`, where no watcher can run, or while no
+  registration covers any member's transcript (out of watches, too many open
+  files), every member's transcript is stat'ed once a second, and
+  `capture_metrics` reports `driver: member-poll` with `fallback_reason`
+  `disabled` or `fs_events_unavailable`. Each round decides the driver
+  afresh.
+
+The rounds keep their read connections from one round to the next, reopening
+them only after a failed round or once `history.db` is replaced; a failed
+round has the next one compare every member. Hydration uses the core's parser, observation locks, cancellation
+and checkpoints. Selected setup does not run a full-history capture. Paused
+selected jobs do not hydrate or deliver; the inventory can still discover
+metadata.
+
+Selected mode keeps only its members' evidence. On the first poll of a run,
+and whenever the members change, the capture thread asks `ai-hist` to forget
+the evidence of every other session (`SessionStore::forget_evidence` with
+`ForgetScope::AllExcept`): events, full-text rows, tool calls, edits, markers
+and checkpoints go, catalog rows stay as `Shallow` so the session list is
+unchanged, and a member's delegated children stay with it. A session whose
+evidence no local hydration could read back (its transcript deleted, or its
+evidence from a remote or plugin source) is kept. When the forget frees at
+least 64 MiB and a quarter of the file, the store is rewritten in place
+(`SessionStore::compact`) to give the space back. The rewrite holds the
+store's write lock for its whole length, so the delivery loop runs it between
+its passes rather than the capture thread beside one, and reports it in
+`compaction-diagnostic.json`; a volume too full for the rewrite is asked for
+again by the next run's pruning. A selection with no members drops nothing.
+A re-selected session is hydrated in full again by the next poll. Nothing is
+retracted from the destination: what was delivered stays delivered.
+`pruning-diagnostic.json` reports the last pass's counts, including
+`skipped_unrecoverable`; a failed pass is reported in
+`capture-diagnostic.json` as stage `evidence_pruning` and retried at the next
+backstop.
+
+The session list reads a catalog that a separate inventory thread keeps,
+apart from the selected delivery scheduler. Shallow discovery reads every
+provider's metadata, which on a large history costs seconds of CPU even when
+nothing changed, so the inventory follows filesystem events rather than a
+timer: a write under a provider's roots (the paths `ai-hist`'s own watch
+covers, filtered by its own `WatchedPath::admits`) marks that source, and the next pass discovers only the marked
+sources; a rescan or a watcher error, which names no path, has the next
+pass discover every source. A pass waits at least 50 times as long as the last one took, and at
+least 30 s, so discovery holds at most about 2% of a core however busy the
+providers are; an idle machine runs no passes. Every 30 minutes a pass
+discovers every source, for writes no event reported, and registers the
+watcher again, for provider roots created since. With
+`AGENT_RELAY_PROBE_FS_EVENTS=0`, or where no watcher can run, every pass
+discovers every source at that spaced cadence. All/new sharing modes
+capture by [live capture](#live-capture). A one-shot `--once` setup still
+runs one bounded cycle: delivery, then capture, then delivery again.
+
+Sharing mutations serialize on `desktop.lock`, stop the collector, and take
+its lock. A durable `sharing-change.json` records the intended change before
+any writes; replay completes it before delivery can restart. Selected-mode
+include/exclude operations update only changed membership. Explicit sharing
+mode changes retain generation replacement semantics and preserve pause state.
+
+A selected install whose job predates session membership is adopted in place:
+the same job keeps its destination generation, pending batches, retry and
+pause state, and its selected sessions become members, each backfilled from
+the feed's start. Existing exclusions remain privacy guards, including
+exclusions needed by another active destination. Read-only commands also
+accept the schema of an install that has not been rebuilt yet.
+
+`capture-diagnostic.json` reports capture stage (`broad_capture`,
+`targeted_hydration`, or `live_capture` for a failed watch tick), elapsed time, counts and an
+allowlisted error class; inventory diagnostics use a separate file. Logs never
+include raw provider errors, transcript content, paths or credentials. A
+successful include command means consent and preparation were recorded, not
+that a receiver acknowledged the session. `shared`, `queued`, `uploading` and
+`uploaded` retain their existing bridge meanings. The historical 77/86-second
+capture failures cannot be diagnosed from the old generic logs; their cause
+remains unknown until a redacted diagnostic is reproduced.
+
+Disconnect stops the collector, cancels jobs, best-effort revokes the workspace
+RelayHistory token, and removes this install's stage credentials/configuration.
+The local history database is retained. It does not remove shared Cloud login
+credentials belonging to other Cloud clients.
+
+### Local title preview
+
+`agent-relay-probe sessions preview --json --limit 100 [--refresh]` has no
+Cloud target, credentials, or transport. `--refresh` runs `SessionStore::discover`,
+the shallow catalog sweep, into a separate private metadata catalog under
+`~/.agentworkforce/session-preview/`; it does not contend with full capture's
+writer or change inclusion. The cache-only form lists recent metadata and writes
+`sessions.json` for immediate desktop startup. Both return the desktop session
+shape with `included: false` and `status: "unknown"`. These rows are previews;
+only the normal target-scoped session list can make them selectable for upload.
+
+The desktop prewarms discovery during sign-in and displays cached titles before
+awaiting capture or delivery status. The preview is limited to 100 recent sessions;
+full browsing continues through the normal session list when preparation finishes.
+
+### Relay core
+
+`agent-relay-probe relay serve [--socket PATH] [--app-data-dir PATH]
+[--exit-on-stdin-eof]` runs the relay core, the desktop's non-UI runtime, on
+the private bridge socket `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.sock`.
+`agent-relay-probe relay call METHOD [--params JSON] --json` sends one bridge
+request to it. The contract, lifecycle and module map are in
+[the relay core](relay-core.md).

+# People and their agents
+
+My agents and Team show live work rather than a history of every session the
+desktop has discovered. Local sessions are visible in the main list only while
+the provider is running or recently reachable (`sessions.list`'s `live`). Both
+apps keep an ended session listed while it is still on the relay, marked
+"Waiting — session not running", so its switch can take it off.
+
+## Person and avatar data
+
+The signed-in Agent Relay Cloud member roster supplies each person's id, name,
+email and optional `avatarUrl`. The UI keeps this roster in memory only. It
+uses the account avatar when present, otherwise the standard lowercased-email
+Gravatar URL. Logout clears the roster. The relay core serves it as
+`people.list`; the signed-in person is `status.account.person`.
+
+Local-session registrations carry their owner in Relaycast metadata:
+`cloud_user_id` and `cloud_workspace_id`, which the engine uses to credit the
+agent's messages to that person, and an `owner_hash` fingerprint for the
+roster. The owner is the attached install's person; when it changes, stored
+registrations are updated through `PATCH /v1/agents/{name}`. The desktop
+retains only the hash while decoding `/v1/agents`, joins it to the
+in-memory Cloud member roster for presentation, and never exposes it through
+the private `GET /agents` socket. Registrations without an owner remain visible
+under **Other live agents**; arbitrary metadata is never an authorization
+boundary.
+
+Team shows one card per teammate, those with agents first; the sidebar lists
+every teammate with their live count and narrows the page to one person. A live
+entry uses its canonical `agent@machine` address for Message. Workspace members
+remain listed with **No agents on the relay** when their active roster is empty.
+The signed-in person's agents on other machines appear under My agents.
+
+## Recipient liveness and message state
+
+What happened to a message is what Relaycast holds for it; whether its
+recipient runs is only a hint beside it.
+
+**Message state.** `GET /v1/agents/{name}` lists the deliveries Relaycast
+still holds for the agent (`pending_deliveries`, oldest 50). The core reads
+the sent message's row there:
+
+| `message` | Relaycast |
+|---|---|
+| `queued` | its row is `queued`: not yet handed to the agent's host |
+| `delivered` | its row is `delivered`: handed to the host, not yet acknowledged |
+| `picked_up` | no row: the agent acknowledged (or refused) it |
+| `no_such_agent` | no agent has the name or address |
+| `null` | the record cannot tell: a server without `pending_deliveries`, an unknown row status, or a full list without the message |
+
+**Liveness.** Every roster agent carries `liveness` from Relaycast's
+presence and, for agents registered from this computer, its own session
+discovery:
+
+| `liveness` | Source |
+|---|---|
+| `live` | `status` `active` or `online` with `last_seen` within Relaycast's five-minute window; a session on this computer that is running |
+| `idle` | `status` `idle`, `waiting` or `blocked` with `last_seen` within the window |
+| `offline` | anything else; a desktop registration marked `idle` (its session ended); a session on this computer that is not running |
+
+An agent without `address` has no node (SDK and MCP agents register
+without one); that alone says nothing about whether it runs. A released
+agent's name resolves to no agent. Relaycast expires `active` itself;
+`idle`, `waiting` and `blocked` are self-reported and never expire there, so
+the core applies the same window to them. A desktop registration
+(`metadata.source` `relay-desktop`) is marked `idle` by its desktop when its
+session ends and `active` when it runs again, so for it `idle` is `offline`
+and an ended session is offered on no device. This computer's own sessions
+are read from discovery.
+
+**Workspace.** The roster is read with this computer's workspace key. It
+answers for your messages only when your relay identity sends on the same
+origin and the account does not use another workspace; otherwise
+`roster.get` and `messages.send`'s `recipient` have `known: false` and say
+nothing.
+
+`roster.get {to|address, message_id?}` looks up one recipient and, with an
+id, that message; `messages.send` answers with the same lookup read just
+after the send. A send to no agent is `not_found` and nothing is queued.
+`roster.list` without `include_idle` reads the running statuses (`active`,
+`online`, `idle`, `waiting`, `blocked`, one request each: Relaycast filters by one
+status) and lists the agents that are `live` or `idle`; with it, every agent
+(`status=all`). A status whose read fails leaves out only its agents, is
+named in `unread_statuses` and logged; the list fails only when every read
+does.
+
+macOS's Message an Agent sheet looks the recipient up as it is entered and
+warns inline before queueing for one that is `offline` (**Queue Anyway**).
+After a send it shows the message state (**Queued — agent not running** or
+**Queued — not yet handed to the agent**, **Delivered**, **Picked up by the
+agent**, **No such agent**, or **Sent — delivery unknown**), read again two
+seconds after the send, on `sessions`, `fleet`, `roster` and `messages`
+invalidations, and every 10 seconds while the sheet is open. Writing the next
+message or closing the sheet drops the note. Beneath the composer it says
+whether a reply is expected, with when the recipient was last seen. My agents
+and Team offer agents that are `live`, and `idle` ones dimmed with a ring.
+
+The Linux app's Messages window does the same for its conversations: a
+recipient is looked up when its conversation is shown and two seconds after a
+send. On the same invalidations and every 10 seconds it is read for the
+conversation shown and for any whose last message is not yet picked up or
+refused, one read per conversation at a time, and no longer once the
+conversation closes.
+
+## Person inbox decision
+
+Current Relaycast DMs and delivery acknowledgements belong to agents, not to a
+workspace person. They cannot durably hold a message for a teammate with no
+online agent, and agent registration metadata is not authoritative ownership.
+[relaycast#457](https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relaycast/issues/457) tracks
+the required person principal, waiting/picked-up state and unread counts.
+
+The chosen routing design is explicit recipient selection: a waiting message
+stays in the person's inbox until they choose a live agent (or opt into a saved
+preferred agent). “First agent online” is intentionally rejected because it
+could deliver a private teammate message to unrelated automation. Until the
+server contract ships, desktop shows the Inbox affordance disabled; it does not
+pretend that an agent DM is a person inbox.
+
+## Codex presence
+
+macOS reads only user-facing `cli` and `vscode` threads, skips Relay-spawned
+system-reminder titles, waits up to eight seconds for Codex's SQLite writer,
+and reads extra rows before applying the automation filter. A thread is live
+when a signed Codex resume process names it or its database row was updated in
+the last five minutes. This prevents old threads and `exec` automation from
+crowding live work out of the main list.

+# Starting a Capy thread from Relay Desktop
+
+Relay Desktop can start a headless Capy thread without receiving the
+workspace's Capy key. The macOS and Linux apps call typed relay-core methods;
+the core uses the signed-in person's Agent Relay Cloud session, and Cloud
+makes the Capy request with the encrypted workspace key.
+
+## Ownership and authorization
+
+The Capy service-user key stays in Agent Relay Cloud under **Settings →
+Workspace → Capy**. Cloud stores the encrypted key and never returns it to the
+desktop app or relay core. Thread creation, binding, delivery subscriptions and
+grants therefore remain in the same server-side trust boundary.
+
+The workspace routes require a person connection whose current workspace is
+the workspace in the path. Only a current workspace owner or admin may list
+projects, start a thread or read its spawn status.
+
+## Shipped Cloud API
+
+Relay Desktop uses these session-authenticated routes under `/api/v1`:
+
+- `GET /workspaces/{workspaceId}/capy/projects?cursor=` returns
+  `{"projects":[{"id","name"}],"truncated","nextCursor"}`. When
+  `truncated` is true, the app passes `nextCursor` to the next request.
+- `POST /workspaces/{workspaceId}/capy/thread-spawns` accepts
+  `clientRequestId`, `projectId`, `task`, optional `model`, optional
+  `pullRequestAuthor` (`user` or `capy`), and optional `reportTo`.
+- `GET /workspaces/{workspaceId}/capy/thread-spawns/{threadId}` returns the
+  current thread and relay-binding status. The path uses Capy's thread id, not
+  the client request id.
+
+The create and status responses are:
+
+```json
+{
+  "thread_id": "jam_…",
+  "title": "…",
+  "status": "…",
+  "binding": { "state": "pending" }
+}
+```
+
+After the first turn binds the thread, `binding` is
+`{"state":"bound","agent":"capy-…"}`. Bound means the binding is active,
+its delivery subscription is installed, and its grant is live.
+
+Cloud returns safe JSON errors as `{"error":"…","retryAfterSeconds":…}`.
+Relevant statuses are 401, 403, 404, 409 when Capy is not connected, 429 and
+502. Neither Cloud nor the desktop logs the Capy key or returns a raw provider
+response.
+
+## Idempotency and first-turn binding
+
+Before either UI makes the create call, it saves a `capyThreadSpawn.v1`
+operation in its native preferences. That record contains the workspace,
+form values and one `relay-desktop-<uuid>` `clientRequestId`. A failed call,
+timeout or app restart reuses the same record. **Start another** clears it and
+creates a new id.
+
+Cloud derives Capy's required request id from the workspace, signed-in person
+and client request id:
+
+```text
+agent-relay-<sha256(workspaceId + NUL + userId + NUL + clientRequestId)>
+```
+
+Cloud always creates an organization-visible thread, does not export the
+service-user key, and prefixes the task with an instruction to call
+`bind_capy_thread` before doing the work. Replaying a create with the same
+client id therefore returns the same Capy thread.
+
+## Desktop behavior
+
+The relay core exposes `capy.projects.list`, `capy.threads.spawn` and
+`capy.threads.get`. It supplies the current workspace from its Cloud session,
+reduces responses to the shared contract models and never exposes credentials.
+
+Starting Capy threads is an agent operation. macOS and Linux omit
+**Start Capy thread…** from the account and Agents/Team overflow menus.
+The retained form implementation selects a project, takes the task and optionally
+selects a model and pull-request author. Both apps use the same states:
+
+- **Starting Capy thread…** while the create call is unresolved.
+- **Thread started · Waiting for Capy to join the relay** after Capy returns
+  but before the first turn binds.
+- **Running on the relay**, the thread id, `@agent`, **Message**, and **Start
+  another** once Cloud reports the binding.
+
+When the workspace has no Capy connection, the error offers **Agent Relay
+Cloud → Settings → Workspace → Capy**. Other Cloud errors remain bounded to
+project access, write access, rate limiting, reachability and binding status.
+A binding-status error stays visible beside the waiting state with **Check
+again**; retrying never replaces the saved idempotency key.

+# Cursor Cloud agents
+
+Cursor Cloud is a hosted Relay provider, identified as `cursor-cloud`. It is
+not the local `cursor-agent` CLI and does not use terminal wrapping, readiness
+polling or prompt injection.
+
+It does not use the Fleet API. Relay Desktop already owns the shared core
+contract and roster, while Agent Relay Cloud owns the provider credential,
+native Cursor calls and hosted Relay participant.
+
+Agent Relay Cloud owns the Cursor API credential. The desktop core authenticates
+only to Agent Relay Cloud and exposes typed `cursor_cloud.*` contract methods;
+provider credentials never enter the app contract, diagnostic logs or an agent
+sandbox. Cloud calls Cursor's public v1 API, whose durable agent and per-prompt
+run model supplies the native operations Relay needs:
+
+- list supported models, cached repositories, environments, durable agents and
+  their runs;
+- create an agent and its initial run;
+- inject a follow-up with Cursor's `delivery: "steer"`, which steers the
+  current turn or queues the next one;
+- read or cancel run state, final text and pushed branches or pull requests;
+- archive and unarchive an agent. Relay never maps release to Cursor's
+  irreversible delete operation.
+
+Cloud registers a launched agent in Relay with `session_kind: cursor-cloud`.
+Before Cursor creates the agent, Cloud registers its hosted Relay identity and
+adds a pinned `agent-relay@14.0.0` stdio MCP server to Cursor's create request.
+Only that identity's scoped agent token and Relay URL enter the Cursor VM; the
+Cursor API key and Relay workspace key do not. This gives the agent native
+roster and peer-messaging tools. The registration's delivery adapter separately
+turns a Relay direct message into a native Cursor follow-up and reports its
+accepted or queued state. `client_request_id` is the Relay-side idempotency key
+for create and follow-up operations because Cursor's steer response does not
+include a run id.
+
+Cloud durably polls accepted work because Cursor v1 has no webhooks. Terminal
+results and pull-request links are posted back to the originating Relay message
+with a stable writeback key.
+
+RelayHistory records each run from Cursor's run event stream, which Cursor
+retains for a limited window after the run ends. While that stream is
+available, RelayHistory stores its assistant, status, thinking, tool-call and
+result events and marks the run's coverage `retained_stream`. Once the window
+has passed, only the run summary (final text, status and pushed branches or
+pull requests) remains, and RelayHistory marks the run as summary-only rather
+than presenting it as a complete transcript.
+
+## Desktop surface
+
+`cursor_cloud.*` is a contract surface for agents, the CLI and Cloud-driven
+flows. Like Replicas, neither the macOS app nor the GTK app (Linux and
+Windows) has a dedicated Cursor Cloud management screen. Both apps show
+Cursor Cloud agents in the roster with the Cursor Cloud name and icon, and
+both classify the same read-only methods as safe to repeat after a reconnect.
+A management screen, if one is added, must ship on macOS and GTK together.
+
+`client_request_id` is required on `cursor_cloud.agents.spawn` and
+`cursor_cloud.runs.create`: up to 128 letters, digits, `-`, `_`, `.` or `:`.
+Reuse it when you retry a call so Cloud returns the original result instead
+of launching a second agent or sending the follow-up twice. Releasing an
+agent is `cursor_cloud.agents.archive`, which `cursor_cloud.agents.unarchive`
+reverses.
+
+Cursor's v1 Cloud Agents API is public beta. The Cloud adapter normalizes its
+camel-case provider responses into this core's snake-case contract so provider
+schema changes remain at the hosted boundary. The upstream reference is
+<https://cursor.com/docs/cloud-agent/api/endpoints>.

+# Existing-session injection adapters
+
+The desktop's delivery runtime is the Rust `agent-relay-probe` core on macOS
+and Linux. `probe/src/relay/existing_session.rs` provides an explicit adapter
+boundary for sessions running outside the Relay broker. OpenCode is exposed
+only through the probe-owned managed-launch path described below. Grok has
+that path too, and an on-by-default route to the leader a Grok TUI runs on in
+leader mode. The managed rollout gate defaults to empty, so current Claude
+and Codex delivery is unchanged.
+
+| Provider | Eligible route after explicit enablement | Current exposure |
+|---|---|---|
+| Devin | Local CLI session: the `devin` process's held `session_locks/<id>.lock` proves identity. Delivery writes a `session/prompt` frame into the session's `acp` stdin pipe through `/proc` when reachable — an immediate user turn that wakes an idle session (Linux terminal sessions only; macOS has no `/proc`, and Devin Desktop's `acp` talks over a socketpair, so those sessions queue until the next boundary) — else stages a file into `relay/inbox.d`, which Agent Relay's managed lifecycle hooks in `~/.config/devin/config.json` (`devin_direct_delivery`) drain into the conversation at the next hook boundary. Cloud sessions (`devin-*`), including sessions displayed in Devin Desktop and outpost-placed sessions running on a local machine: official v3 organization session-message API | Local discovery, caller identification, registration, pipe/inbox delivery and managed hooks; cloud adapter for `devin-*` sessions |
+| OpenCode | Probe-launched authenticated loopback server | Default-off managed picker and injector |
+| Grok | Probe-launched ACP leader and private Unix socket; or the leader a `grok --leader` TUI spawns | Default-off managed picker and injector; on-by-default `grok-open` listing, binding on add, and injector |
+| OpenClaw | Loopback operator client of the person's OpenClaw Gateway; one session per relay sender ([openclaw-hermes-delivery](openclaw-hermes-delivery.md)) | On wherever OpenClaw is set up (`openclaw_gateway`) |
+| Hermes | Hermes's loopback API server, `/v1/runs` with durable keyed admission; one session per relay sender | On wherever Hermes has run (`hermes_agent`); listed while the API answers |
+| Pi | Bundled extension loaded with `/reload` in an existing persistent UI session; private per-runtime inbox ([Pi delivery](pi-existing-session-injection.md)) | Default-on installation where Pi exists, live discovery, pinned registration, history-confirmed delivery and final answers |

+documents `GET /v3/organizations/{org_id}/sessions/{devin_id}` and
+`POST /v3/organizations/{org_id}/sessions/{devin_id}/messages` with a `message`
+body. The POST has no documented idempotency key. The adapter therefore checks
+the exact organization, session and owner with the same bearer before POST;
+the caller creates and syncs an in-doubt journal record before any POST. A
+timeout or uncertain response stays in doubt and is never resent. Only an
+exact successful session response produces a receipt. Redirects and ambient
+HTTP proxies are disabled; errors exposed to the desktop are fixed codes,
+never response bodies or credentials.
+
+The v3 route cannot address local `devin-local` sessions (the `windsurf`
+backend a terminal `devin` or Devin Desktop runs): they are not registered
+in the organization session list — `GET .../sessions?origins=desktop|cli`
+and `session_ids=<local id>` both return empty for them — and no public API
+maps a local session id onto a remote one. Those sessions therefore remain
+pipe/inbox-only. This is an upstream boundary, not a gap Agent Relay can
+close: a first-party channel (a `devin acp` inbox socket like Claude Code's
+per-session peer inbox, an `inbox.d` watch, or a `devin prompt --session`
+command) would make idle local sessions wakeable everywhere.
+
+[OpenCode's server contract](https://opencode.ai/docs/server/) documents an
+HTTP session prompt route and optional basic authentication. An arbitrary
+OpenCode TUI chooses a random server port, so a title or transcript ID alone
+does not establish an authorized endpoint. Keystrokes into legacy terminals
+are never a fallback.
+
+`sessions.managed.launch` is available only on the core's private local RPC
+socket (0700 parent, 0600 socket, kernel peer-UID check). Its request contains
+only provider kind, executable, directory and requested provider session ID.
+It does not accept an endpoint, PID, socket, provider workspace, credential,
+credential reference or prebuilt binding, and unknown fields are rejected.
+The route is separately default-off for each provider:
+
+- `AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_MANAGED_GROK=1`
+- `AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_MANAGED_OPENCODE=1`
+
+When enabled, the probe canonicalizes a trusted executable and directory,
+launches the provider endpoint with a random probe-only marker (and random
+OpenCode Basic authentication), verifies PID/start/UID/executable/arguments,
+verifies the socket peer or literal loopback endpoint, and loads/reads the exact
+provider session. Only then does it atomically persist a private immutable
+binding of provider, Relaycast workspace, signed-in owner, UID, session,
+endpoint/socket and process identity, plus a hash reference to the marker. Raw
+markers and Basic credentials are never written. The picker lists only enabled,
+live records from that registry; registration repeats the workspace/owner/UID
+check, and `LocalInjector` refuses a route absent from it. Restart reloads and
+re-verifies the same records. Editing, replacing, making unreadable or making
+non-private any record hides it and disables injection rather than adopting a
+replacement process.
+
+Grok also has a second route, for the leader Grok spawns when a TUI runs in
+leader mode (or one the person started). It is on unless
+`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_EXISTING_GROK=0`, and has its own registry and journal.
+Live Grok TUI sessions are listed from Grok's own `active_sessions.json`, and
+a Grok session Paseo drives with `grok agent stdio` is listed from that
+process and the session id Paseo recorded for it. Adding one binds the leader
+that client is attached to. A client started with `--no-leader` is listed and
+is not bound, so the message is not delivered to a different Grok process. The
+already-open authority accepts only a leader *without*
+the managed marker, so it cannot adopt a managed leader. A session that both
+routes claim is neither listed nor delivered to. See
+[Grok existing-session injection](grok-existing-session-injection.md#already-open-leaders).
+
+The requested executable path itself must have the exact leaf name `grok` or
+`opencode` before canonicalization. A correctly named symlink may resolve to a
+trusted installation, but wrapper names and versioned shims such as
+`opencode-1.18` are deliberately rejected.
+
+Before enabling a provider, the core must bind the Relaycast workspace and
+registration to an immutable provider session, endpoint, owner and local
+credential reference. The provider adapter must recheck those values before
+sending. The journal uses a private 0700 directory, 0600 records and locks,
+`O_NOFOLLOW`, an exclusive per-session lock, a synced pending record before
+sending, and a synced receipt before returning `Delivered`. Future Relaycast
+wiring must acknowledge only after that return. A corrupt or unreadable record
+fails closed. For OpenCode, an in-doubt record is reconciled only by readback
+of the exact deterministic user message and correlated terminal assistant
+response. For Grok, which has no idempotent prompt/readback contract, an
+in-doubt record stays quarantined for operator resolution. Neither path
+automatically resends.
+
+## OpenCode port selection
+
+`opencode serve` binds its own listener from `--hostname` and `--port`; it
+has no interface for adopting an inherited socket. The probe therefore asks
+the kernel for a free `127.0.0.1` port, releases it, and passes the number to
+`opencode serve`. Between that release and OpenCode's bind, another local
+process can take the port:
+
+- Such a squatter never receives the Basic credential. Every authenticated
+  request first proves that the exact recorded OpenCode PID owns the
+  listening socket on that port.
+- A launch whose OpenCode process exits before its endpoint verifies is
+  retried on a fresh port. A launch makes at most three attempts, and all of
+  them share one 60-second deadline. An attempt whose process stays alive
+  but never verifies uses the remaining deadline, and the launch then fails.
+- A squatter can therefore make a launch fail, never take over its route.
+
+## Registry and runtime files
+
+- The registry is versioned. A v1 registry, whose Grok records carry two
+  `provider` keys and cannot be decoded, is moved aside as
+  `bindings.json.bak-<time>-<random>`. Before it is moved, each provider it
+  names is sent `SIGTERM` if the kernel still reports that exact PID, start
+  time and uid, because with no v2 record nothing can reach or relaunch it.
+  The signal is best effort and its exit is not awaited: a launch of the same
+  session immediately after the quarantine can briefly run beside the exiting
+  provider, and a provider that ignores `SIGTERM` keeps running unrecorded.
+  Waiting for exit before quarantining is not done yet. The
+  provider's own session data stays, and a launch loads it again.
+- Any other unreadable registry — a digest mismatch, a truncated file, an
+  unknown version — stays in place and fails closed: the picker is empty,
+  launch and injection report the registry unavailable.
+- Grok leader sockets live in the registry's `run/` directory, or, when that
+  path is too long for a Unix socket, in `/tmp/agent-relay-managed-<uid>/`.
+  Each Grok launch sweeps both. A `grok-<id>.sock` and the lock Grok keeps
+  beside it are removed only when no record with a possibly-live leader names
+  them, they are older than ten minutes, and the socket is absent or refuses
+  connections.
+- Delivery journals write each record through a temp file,
+  `.<digest>-<random>.tmp`, renamed into place. Opening a journal removes
+  such temp files older than one hour; a crash between write and rename
+  leaves the record they would have replaced authoritative.
+
+## Open decision: registrations after a managed relaunch
+
+A managed registration stores its target and the authority it verified, not
+the provider process. Delivery resolves the target's live binding at send
+time, so after a permitted relaunch (old provider positively gone; same
+workspace, owner and uid) the registration follows the new provider. The
+already-open Grok route instead pins each registration to the exact binding
+it verified (`routeBinding`); after a rebind that agent is refused until it
+is removed and added again.
+
+Recommendation: pin managed registrations the same way. The relaunch rule
+already guarantees the same authority, so following it is not an authority
+escalation; the cost of following is that queued messages for a provider
+that died are delivered into a fresh process whose conversation context may
+differ from what the sender saw. Pinning makes that boundary visible and
+gives both Grok routes one rule, at the cost of an explicit re-add after
+every relaunch. This awaits a product decision; the current behaviour is
+follow-the-relaunch.
+
+## Operational limits
+
+- A record is eligible for removal and relaunch only when the kernel
+  positively reports that its exact provider PID/start identity is gone and
+  the new request repeats the exact Relaycast workspace, signed-in owner and
+  UID authority. Lookup/readback failures do not make the binding replaceable;
+  a different authority cannot inherit the provider session. Removal precedes
+  provider startup, so a failed relaunch leaves no live record rather than
+  restoring stale authority.
+- Picker liveness re-runs provider verification (including a Grok ACP client
+  inspection) with a five-second bound; verification is not cached yet.
+- A crash after a journal claim but before a provider can prove acceptance is
+  reported as in-doubt and quarantined. This prevents a duplicate send, but
+  an operator must reconcile or remove the private receipt before retrying.
+- The Grok Unix peer check proves the owning UID and the pid holding the
+  socket's listening end (`SO_PEERCRED` on Linux, `LOCAL_PEERPID` on
+  macOS), and the binding separately proves the exact leader
+  PID/start/executable and socket inode. An old leader that outlived the
+  replacement of its socket file therefore no longer proves a binding.
+- Shutdown signals the reverified provider leader. Descendant process-group
+  cleanup is provider-owned and is not yet enforced by the probe.
+- The registry SHA-256 digest detects corruption; it is not a keyed
+  authenticity primitive. Security comes from the private directory/file
+  permissions plus live kernel, credential-marker and provider readback
+  verification.

+# Grok existing-session injection
+
+The Rust desktop core can deliver one message into a Grok session owned by an
+exact resident ACP leader. Two separate routes produce that leader binding.
+The managed bridge, default-off, launches the leader itself. The already-open
+route, on by default, binds the leader Grok itself spawns for a TUI running in
+leader mode, with immutable proof. Neither route adopts a TUI by title or
+sends terminal keystrokes.
+
+A plain `grok` TUI opens no socket at all, so nothing can be delivered to it.
+It does record itself in `<grok home>/active_sessions.json` while it runs,
+and that record is how the desktop lists it. With `[cli] use_leader = true`
+in Grok's `config.toml` (the desktop's *Grok sessions* setting writes exactly
+that line), or `grok --leader`, the TUI spawns a shared `grok agent leader`
+on `<grok home>/leader.sock`, and a second ACP client can load and prompt
+the TUI's own session through it. The injected turn renders in the TUI.
+
+The route binds all of the following before a send: Relay workspace and owner,
+local uid, Grok session ID, canonical working directory, model, Grok executable,
+leader pid and kernel start identity, and Unix socket path/device/inode. The
+kernel and filesystem evidence is checked before `session/load` and again
+immediately before `session/prompt`.
+
+The transport starts an isolated ACP stdio proxy against that exact leader,
+initializes protocol version 1, loads the exact session, and sends one
+`session/prompt`. It treats neither `activity=working` nor an open request as a
+receipt. Within the receipt window, delivery is confirmed after an
+`agent_message_chunk` plus both the prompt-complete notification and caller
+result identify the same prompt, end with `end_turn`, and retain the pinned
+model. A working turn outlives that window: when the leader's
+`_x.ai/queue/changed` has named our exact prompt text under a server prompt
+id, the message is in the session and the turn runs on without the caller,
+so that too is delivery, with that prompt id as the receipt. Only a prompt
+the queue never showed stays in doubt.
+
+Grok 1.0.46 does not deduplicate a caller-supplied prompt ID. A disconnected
+caller also does not cancel the model turn. Therefore the desktop fsyncs a
+private pending record before sending, serializes each bound session, replays a
+confirmed receipt without contacting Grok, and permanently leaves an uncertain
+send in doubt. It never blindly resends. Mid-turn injection is refused by the
+same per-session serialization boundary.
+
+`_x.ai/mcp/servers_updated` can contain environment values. The ACP decoder
+drops that notification wholesale before any diagnostic surface can observe
+it. Provider frames, stderr, prompts, credentials, paths, and raw errors are
+never copied into activity diagnostics.
+
+Live disposable proof against Grok 1.0.46 established:
+
+- a second ACP client can load and prompt the holder's resident session;
+- model consumption is the prompt-scoped agent message chunk;
+- completion requires the matching `prompt_complete` and JSON-RPC result;
+- repeated text and repeated caller prompt IDs create new turns, so retry is
+  unsafe;
+- concurrent prompts overlap at the provider, so the adapter must serialize;
+- client death does not cancel a consumed turn;
+- leader death after consumption produces no reliable receipt and remains in
+  doubt.
+
+The binding producer is `sessions.managed.launch`, gated by
+`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_MANAGED_GROK=1`. It accepts no socket, pid, credential or
+prebuilt binding. It launches the leader on a probe-private socket with a
+random marker, performs kernel/socket peer verification and `session/load`
+readback, then persists the record. The picker and registration use only that
+record and repeat live authority checks. Hosted and disposable live validation
+remains required before the PR is made ready; the flag remains off by default.
+
+## Already-open leaders
+
+The second route is on unless `AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_EXISTING_GROK=0`. It does
+not depend on the managed flag. Its sessions have their own target kind,
+`grok-open`. Managed sessions keep `grok`. A registration's kind therefore
+names its route for good: a `grok-open` agent is never delivered through a
+managed leader, and a `grok` agent never through an already-open one. This
+holds even after its own binding is lost and the other route has bound the
+same session id. Its bindings and receipts live in the app data
+directory under `existing-grok-sessions/`. They are never written to the
+managed registry, and never to the `agent-relay` CLI's home.
+
+- **Listing.** `sessions.list` reads Grok's own `active_sessions.json`
+  (`GROK_HOME`, else `~/.grok`) and lists each record whose pid is alive and
+  this user's as a `grok-open` row, titled from Grok's `summary.json` when it
+  has one, else from the directory. A Grok session Paseo starts is not in
+  that file: Paseo runs `grok agent stdio` under its daemon. That process is
+  listed too, as `grok-open` with host `paseo`, when it is this user's
+  packaged Paseo helper's descendant, its `PASEO_AGENT_ID` record names one
+  Grok session id for `PASEO_AGENT_CWD`, and the session directory exists in
+  that process's own Grok home (`GROK_HOME`, else `~/.grok` of its `HOME`),
+  not the probe's. A session already listed from its
+  binding, or claimed by the managed registry, is not listed twice; when the
+  managed registry cannot be read, no unbound row is listed. A TUI row is
+  live only while an already-open leader of this user is running. A Paseo row
+  is live only while that stdio client is attached to a leader that is
+  running: the `--leader-socket` it names, or `leader.sock` in its own Grok
+  home. A client started with `--no-leader` is listed and is not deliverable,
+  so a message is not sent to a different leader. A session already bound to
+  a leader is refused the same way while that detached client is still
+  running. Otherwise both apps show a row with no leader as needing leader
+  mode. A bound row stays live while the TUI registry still lists it, or
+  while that Paseo client is still attached to a running leader.
+- **Producer.** Adding a row calls `agents.register`, which binds the session
+  first when it has no binding, with the directory Grok recorded for it; this
+  is the same work as `sessions.existing.register`, which still takes
+  `{"kind":"grok-open", "session_id","directory"}` on the private local RPC
+  socket. Neither accepts a pid, socket, executable, endpoint, credential or
+  binding.
+  - The probe looks for a candidate in the kernel's process table: a `grok
+    agent leader` process of this user whose environment is readable and has
+    no managed marker. Its socket is the one `--leader-socket` in its argv,
+    or, for the leader a `grok --leader` TUI spawns, which names none,
+    `leader.sock` under the `GROK_HOME` or `~/.grok` of the leader's own
+    environment. Two `--leader-socket` arguments name no candidate.
+  - Exactly one candidate must pass `ExistingLeaderAuthority`. When several
+    do, the probe keeps the one on the socket the session's own client is
+    attached to: the `--leader-socket` in that process's argv, else the
+    default socket of that process's home. A Paseo client started with
+    `--no-leader` is attached to none and is refused rather than bound to
+    another leader. Leaders outlive their TUIs, so several open leaders are
+    the common case after a few restarts. Anything still ambiguous is refused
+    rather than guessed; with none, the refusal says to turn on leader mode.
+  - The probe then runs `session/load` of that session in the canonical
+    `directory` and reads back the model and version.
+  - Only then does it store the binding, together with the signed-in
+    workspace and owner.
+  - The same bytes may be registered again. Any other binding for that
+    session is refused, and the stored bytes stay as they were.
+- **Authority.** `ExistingLeaderAuthority` runs the managed route's kernel,
+  executable, argv, socket-inode and socket-peer checks. It also requires a
+  readable environment without the managed marker, and an `existing:grok:`
+  reference to that identity. If the kernel will not show an environment, the
+  route treats the marker as unknown, never as absent. Only this authority
+  lets an argv without `--leader-socket` prove a binding, and only for the
+  default socket of the leader's own environment; the managed authority
+  still requires the private socket it launched with.
+- **Separation.** The managed authority refuses an `existing:` reference and
+  any leader without its marker. Each Grok binding in the managed registry,
+  live or not, claims both its session and its leader process. An
+  already-open binding that touches either claim is neither listed nor
+  registrable. Delivery to it is refused before either route is asked, and
+  it does not identify callers. Neither binding is rewritten to settle the
+  conflict. If either registry cannot be read, the route reports it
+  unavailable rather than assuming it is free.
+- **Listing matches delivery.** Each bound Grok row is listed exactly when
+  delivery would use it; an unbound row from Grok's registry is listed so it
+  can be added, and delivery to it is refused until adding has bound it. The
+  bindings directory must be mode 0700, and
+  delivery also requires that it can be enumerated. So a registry that can't
+  be opened, locked or listed hides every row and makes delivery retry. One
+  unreadable binding file hides only its own session, and that session's
+  delivery retries. One transient gap remains: an I/O error partway through
+  listing empties the picker for that read, while delivery may still
+  succeed. It never hides a single session while serving it, and it clears
+  on the next read.
+- **Liveness and rebinding.** A binding that fails a check is hidden and not
+  sent to. It is never deleted. Once its leader process is gone or replaced,
+  that is final for the binding. The session can then be registered on a new
+  leader, but only with the same workspace, owner and uid, as a managed
+  relaunch requires. That is the only time a stored binding is replaced, and
+  the replaced binding's reference is kept with the new one as its lineage
+  (up to sixteen). Grok replaces its own leader, for instance after an update
+  check, so delivery does this itself: a pinned `grok-open` agent whose
+  stored leader is proven gone, for a session Grok's registry still lists in
+  the stored directory, is rebound to the one open leader before the send.
+  While no leader can be bound yet, the message waits; once Grok no longer
+  lists the session, it is refused.
+- **Agents are pinned to a binding.** `agents.register` stores the live
+  binding's `existing:grok:` reference on the registration as
+  `routeBinding`. Delivery requires that binding, or one whose lineage
+  names it, and the check runs inside the same registry read as the send.
+  So a registration follows its session across the rebindings the registry
+  itself allowed, and never to a binding of another workspace, owner or uid.
+  A registration with no pin is refused, and so is plain delivery that
+  names no registration.
+- **Delivery.** `LocalInjector` proves the binding again and sends through
+  the shared `Coordinator`, with the same journal rules:
+  - A confirmed receipt is replayed and is never sent again.
+  - A send that may have reached Grok stays in doubt.
+  - A registry or journal error before sending is retried.
+
+  Delivery names the session explicitly in `session/load` and
+  `session/prompt`, so one leader may hold several registered sessions.
+- **Replies.** Grok gives every tool process its session's id as
+  `GROK_SESSION_ID`, the way Codex gives `CODEX_THREAD_ID`. On the
+  relay-send socket that variable decides the caller alone, once the process
+  is proven to run under a `grok agent leader` of this user and Grok's
+  live-session registry lists that session for a process of this user's. A
+  tool without it under a leader is still nobody: the walk stops at the
+  leader, recognised from its argv alone, instead of naming one of its
+  sessions or the terminal around it. So a registered `grok-open` session
+  receives the same reply and agents commands as a Claude Code or Codex
+  session, and can answer on the socket as the agent it is registered as.
+  On macOS the commands run the bundled `agent-relay-probe` rather than
+  `curl`: macOS hides the environment of Apple's own binaries, `curl` and
+  `zsh` included, from other processes, so `GROK_SESSION_ID` could not be read
+  from `curl`, and the reply was refused as `not_a_relay_session`.
+  The managed route's sessions get none, as nothing lists them. One
+  exception comes from main: a process that inherited `CODEX_THREAD_ID` is
+  resolved to that Codex thread before the walk. Self-registration and
+  Connect stay limited to Codex and Claude Code.
+- **Limits.** With more than one already-open Grok leader running and none
+  of them on the session's TUI socket, nothing is registered. Close the
+  extra leaders, or use the managed route.
+
+## The leader-mode setting
+
+`settings.get` serves `grok_leader` wherever Grok's home exists: whether the
+user's `config.toml` sets `use_leader` to `true`, read from `[cli]` or a
+top-level `cli.use_leader`. `settings.set` rewrites only that one line, or
+adds it under `[cli]` (appending the table when there is none), keeping every
+other byte, the file's mode and any symlink, and copying the original once to
+`config.toml.relay-desktop-backup`. A file that names the key twice, or has
+two `[cli]` tables, is reported as unsafe to change and left alone. Grok's
+managed and requirements layers can pin `cli.use_leader`; the setting reads
+and writes the user file only. Sessions already open keep running as they
+are until restarted, and Grok refuses leader mode under a sandbox profile.
+
+The setting is on by default wherever Grok is installed: the core turns it on
+once and remembers that, so a person who turns it off keeps it off (see
+[Integrations are on by default](injectable-agents.md#integrations-are-on-by-default)).

+# Spawned harness fleet discovery: draft
+
+Status: documentation draft only. The hosted Agent Relay MCP cannot currently be
+configured automatically for a spawned agent. Its spawn tools require Cloud
+`relay:agents` authority, which neither the agent's Relaycast token nor the
+desktop's normal CLI sign-in provides. Do not inject a person's Cloud bearer,
+mint a connector token, or claim that spawn tools are available until the
+authorization design is settled.
+
+## Credential-free startup text
+
+The following text can be included in a spawned Codex thread's developer
+instructions or a spawned Claude session's appended system prompt. Fill in the
+verified name, address, and local socket pointer for that session; do not accept
+them from the task text.
+
+> You are Agent Relay agent `@<name>`, address `<name>@<node>`. Use your own
+> identity when sending messages. To confirm it, call `GET /whoami` on the
+> desktop's local Relay socket. Use `GET /agents` to find agents in your
+> workspace and their exact addresses. Send a direct message with `POST /send`
+> and exactly one destination: `to` for an agent name or `address` for an exact
+> address. The desktop identifies your session from the connecting process;
+> do not supply a sender or look for an agent token.
+>
+> The local roster lists agents, not machines with spawn capability or free
+> capacity. Do not infer where you can launch another agent from a machine
+> name or from an agent's presence. If the hosted Relay MCP is unavailable,
+> ask a coordinator to delegate or report that fleet placement is unavailable.
+> Once an authorized hosted MCP connection is present and its tools are
+> confirmed loaded, call `list_relay_spawn_targets`, choose a returned node
+> explicitly, then call `spawn_relay_agent` with that node and a stable
+> idempotency key. Keep its `spawn_id` and poll `get_relay_spawn_status` until
+> the outcome is known. A capacity or target error ends that attempt; retain
+> the task, inspect fresh targets, and choose whether to try another node,
+> wait, or report that the task is blocked. Never assume an accepted spawn is
+> ready.
+
+For the future hosted path, the structured codes `spawn_capacity_exceeded`,
+`spawn_target_unavailable`, `spawn_target_offline`,
+`spawn_harness_unavailable`, and `capacity_changed` are terminal for that
+attempt. The agent may start a new attempt only after a fresh target read and
+an explicit placement decision. It must retain an existing `spawn_id` and
+idempotency key when an outcome is uncertain, rather than launch a duplicate.
+
+The socket path is published at `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket`
+(`relay-socket.dev` for the development build). The existing relay-send socket
+accepts `GET /whoami`, `GET /agents`, and `POST /send`. It checks the calling
+process and registration and applies its existing per-session rate limit. On
+macOS, spawned Codex may need the probe's `relay socket-request` command so the
+process identity is preserved; the desktop already uses that form in injected
+reply hints. The startup text should use the same verified socket path and
+command form as those hints.
+
+## Tool-load verification after authorization exists
+
+The harness setup should be treated as successful only when the **same spawned
+session** reports the hosted MCP connection and exposes the required tools.
+Configuration acceptance or a reachable URL alone does not prove this.
+
+- Claude: scan that session's stream-json records for its first `system`/`init`
+  record; `system`/`session_state_changed` may precede it. Require exactly one
+  `agent-relay-sessions` entry with `source: "dynamic"` and
+  `status: "connected"`, plus these `mcp__agent-relay-sessions__*` tools in
+  `init.tools`: `list_relay_spawn_targets`,
+  `spawn_relay_agent`, `get_relay_spawn_status`, `release_relay_agent`,
+  `list_relay_agents`, and `send_relay_message`. Treat absent, failed, or
+  partial results as unavailable. `pending` and `needs-auth` are not loaded;
+  an entry sourced from `user` is not the explicitly configured child server.
+- Codex: call `mcpServerStatus/list` with `threadId` for the newly started
+  thread, `serverName: "agent-relay-sessions"`, and
+  `detail: "toolsAndAuthOnly"`. The installed app-server's
+  `generate-json-schema` output defines `result.data[]` entries with `name`,
+  `runtimeStatus`, `toolsError`, and a `tools` map. Require
+  `runtimeStatus: "connected"`, no discovery error, and the same tool names
+  in the map. A cached catalog with a missing or failed runtime is not ready.
+
+Parser tests use bounded, redacted, schema-shaped fixture records. They cover
+connected, pending, failed, absent, wrong-source, and partial-tool cases. A
+successful tool-load check still does not bypass server-side workspace role,
+consent, or capacity checks.
+
+`probe/src/relay/harness_setup.rs` holds the credential-free startup text and
+both parsers. Neither parser proves authorization: Cloud checks scopes and
+current permissions when a tool is called.
+The checked-in JSON fixtures contain no tokens or actual session IDs. The Codex
+fixture follows the installed app-server JSON schema. The Claude connected
+fixture is redacted and follows a disposable local stdio MCP run with Claude
+Code **2.1.299**: an explicit `--mcp-config` server appeared as
+`source: "dynamic", status: "connected"` in `system`/`init`, with its six tools
+in `init.tools`. A second run with a 12-second local handshake delay still
+waited until connection before emitting init. The pending fixture is synthetic
+and **unverified** for an explicit dynamic server. A later post-connect status
+signal for an inherited or asynchronous server is also unverified; this parser
+does not promote such a server to loaded. No further live harness runs are
+planned before an isolation design is approved.
+
+## Harness MCP isolation
+
+Spawned agents do not currently use any of this: they inherit the person's
+MCP servers, as the broker's workers do (see `docs/native-spawn.md`). The
+notes below are kept for when isolation is wanted again.
+
+Claude inherits the person's user-level MCP servers and connectors unless the
+launcher passes `--strict-mcp-config`. The installed Claude Code 2.1.299 help
+defines that flag as using only servers supplied by `--mcp-config`. The
+coordinator verified that a launch with the flag and no explicit MCP config
+reported `mcp_servers: []`. Keep the flag on every spawned Claude launch;
+provide only a child-scoped explicit MCP config after the credential design is
+approved. The local dummy runs above used this flag and showed only the dummy
+dynamic server.
+
+For Codex, the installed app-server `ThreadStartParams` JSON schema accepts a
+free-form `config` object. Codex [configuration reference](https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-reference)
+defines `mcp_servers.<id>.enabled = false` to disable a named server. In the
+[app-server thread start source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/thread_processor.rs#L1141-L1215),
+`thread/start` passes `config` to a per-thread config load. The
+[config manager](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/app-server/src/config_manager.rs#L451-L479)
+appends request overrides after daemon CLI overrides. Its
+[TOML merge](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/config/src/merge.rs#L57-L148)
+recurses into tables, so `config: {"mcp_servers": {}}` leaves user-configured
+servers present. A named override such as
+`config: {"mcp_servers": {"agent-relay-sessions": {"enabled": false}}}`
+should disable that exact server for a new thread: the
+[server config](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/config/src/mcp_types.rs#L226-L240)
+states that `enabled = false` skips initialization. This is a source-based
+finding, not a live test of the installed daemon. It does not cover other
+user, project, plugin, or managed MCP servers, or a later resume without the
+same override.
+
+The broad isolation option is a separate app-server process with its own
+`CODEX_HOME`: [Codex source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs#L5112-L5120)
+says this environment variable selects the config directory at process start.
+It cannot change the existing person's daemon for one thread. A separate home
+also needs an authorized model sign-in and does not by itself exclude project,
+system, or managed config. Do not copy the person's authentication or MCP
+bearers into that home. Until the isolation and auth plan is approved, the
+launcher should treat Codex MCP inheritance as unresolved and verify the
+effective per-thread MCP status before relying on any tool.
+
+The installed app-server schema defines `mcpServerStatus/list` with optional
+`threadId`, `serverName`, `detail`, `limit`, and `cursor`. Omit `threadId` to
+inspect the effective global config; use the newly started thread's `threadId`
+to inspect its config and runtime. To enumerate all names, omit `serverName`
+and `limit`, and request `detail: "toolsAndAuthOnly"`. Its response has
+`result.data[]` entries containing `name`, `runtimeStatus`, `authStatus`, and
+`tools`, plus `nextCursor`; it has no header-value field. It may include an
+HTTP **origin** without endpoint path or credentials. The
+[implementation](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/mcp_processor.rs#L367-L546)
+uses the thread's MCP connections when a `threadId` is supplied and otherwise
+loads global config. Only a complete response (`nextCursor: null`) can prove
+zero active servers. `codex_no_mcp_active` accepts an empty inventory or only
+`disabled` entries with empty tool maps; unknown, failed, connecting, or
+paginated responses fail closed. The caller must match the JSON-RPC response to
+its own unfiltered thread-scoped request. This is a source/schema finding, not
+a live query of the person's daemon.
+
+For the current desktop spawn path, fail closed in this order: list effective
+server names without a `threadId` or `serverName`; build the new thread's
+`config` with `codex_disable_mcp_config(names)`; call `thread/start`; call
+`mcpServerStatus/list` with that exact `threadId`,
+`detail: "toolsAndAuthOnly"`, and no `serverName` or `limit`; require
+`nextCursor: null` and `codex_no_mcp_active` before the first turn. If any
+step is uncertain or the check is false, archive the spawned thread and refuse
+to deliver work to it. Reading the names does not read static header values.
+The global name list can miss project-specific servers in the new thread's
+working directory, so the post-start thread-scoped check is mandatory.
+
+For a loaded thread, Codex stores its [current config](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/core/src/codex_thread.rs#L1005-L1075),
+and [runtime refresh](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/core/src/config/mod.rs#L1959-L2008)
+preserves session-scoped layers while refreshing other layers. A resume of a
+still-running thread keeps that config; Codex explicitly reports that newly
+supplied `config` overrides are ignored in that case
+([source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/thread_processor.rs#L210-L226)).
+A **cold** `thread/resume` loads config afresh from the current layers and its
+new request overrides
+([source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/thread_processor.rs#L4150-L4210));
+the persisted metadata merge restores model details, not MCP disable entries
+([source](https://github.com/openai/codex/blob/e342df7b668acea2a0417d56cf872dab837276ef/codex-rs/app-server/src/request_processors/thread_processor.rs#L235-L254)).
+Therefore a cold resume must resend every named `enabled: false` override and
+verify the complete thread-scoped status before starting another turn.
+The desktop does not cold-resume a spawned thread: its delivery path calls
+`send_if_loaded` and starts a turn only on an already-loaded thread, and a
+reclaimed agent remains reclaimed. If a future desktop path cold-resumes a
+spawned thread, it must apply the disable and status check again before any
+turn. A person opening the thread in Codex is outside the desktop-owned spawn
+path.
+
+## Observed sessions
+
+For an observed session, a one-time hint can be appended to the existing
+injected delivery text next to the reply and agents commands generated by
+`reply_hint` in `probe/src/relay/outbound.rs`. This is best-effort guidance to
+the local socket, without installing MCP configuration or changing the
+observed session's credentials. It should explain that `GET /agents` is an
+agent roster and that fleet spawn targets require an authorized hosted MCP
+connection.

+# Injectable agents and fleet workers
+
+The **Agents** tab covers both halves of "agents on this machine":
+
+- **Fleet workers** — agents spawned onto this machine: an agent asks Cloud's
+  `list_relay_spawn_targets` where it may spawn and starts one with
+  `spawn_relay_agent`, with no command line to install (the desktop's own
+  spawn node takes it; see [native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md)). The legacy
+  `agent-relay node agent spawn` and `agent-relay fleet spawn` commands land
+  on an `agent-relay` broker here too.
+  They already have Relaycast names; the tab shows them live and can release
+  them. See [Fleet workers](#fleet-workers).
+- **Injectable agents** — sessions that are **already running** on a Mac made
+  addressable by name on Relaycast, without launching them through
+  `agent-relay node agent spawn` or a PTY wrapper.
+
+## What the user does
+
+1. Open the **Agents** tab (the first tab). It lists the fleet workers this
+   Mac's broker is running, plus every Codex thread (desktop app and
+   terminal), every live Claude Code terminal session, every Claude
+   desktop-app session, and every live Devin CLI session on this machine.
+2. Pick a name (a default like `codex-relay-3f72` is suggested) and click the
+   radio button. The app registers a Relaycast agent with that name.
+3. Anyone in the workspace can now `DM @codex-relay-3f72` or @mention it. The
+   message shows up in that session as a user turn, labelled:
+
+   ```
+   [via Agent Relay — from @alice to @codex-relay-3f72 · ref 1a2b3c4d5e6f]
+
+   Can you check the failing test?
+   ```
+
+Turning the radio button off deletes the agent and frees the name.
+
+The chevron on a registered row opens its tools:
+
+- **Rename.** One name per session. A rename, or a session asking for a new name
+  in `POST /register`, replaces the name: the new one is the only name shown on
+  rosters and the only sender — direct messages, replies (whichever name the
+  message was sent to), automatic answers and channel posts all go out under it.
+  The name the session was registered with is kept only to forward messages
+  already sent to it, so nothing sent while renaming is lost: rosters hide it by
+  `renamed_to` in its Relaycast metadata (published again until Relaycast has
+  it, and once after start for agents renamed by an earlier version), and it is
+  not announced or heartbeated as present, though Relaycast may still see it
+  active while it forwards. It keeps the webhook URL and integrations. A channel
+  the session posts in or subscribes to under its new name is left under the
+  old one, so each post arrives once; leaving a channel leaves under both. Renaming
+  again replaces the new name the same way: the replaced one is hidden and keeps
+  forwarding for 24 hours, so a late reply still arrives, then is released.
+  Renaming back to a name still forwarding (or to the first name) makes it the
+  shown name again. Every name is released when the agent leaves the relay.
+- **Test message.** Sends a DM through Relaycast from a small `desktop-tester-…`
+  agent the app registers once per workspace, so the test takes exactly the path a
+  teammate's message takes.
+- **Webhook.** Creates a channel `hook-<name>` that only this agent joins and binds a
+  Relaycast inbound webhook to it (`POST /v1/webhooks`). Anything POSTed to
+  `https://cast.agentrelay.com/v1/hooks/<id>` with `Authorization: Bearer wh_live_…`
+  (JSON `{"text": "…"}`) becomes a message in that channel. The app injects every
+  delivery from the agent's own hook channel, even though ordinary channel posts are
+  not injected. **Revoke** deletes the webhook and its channel, as does turning the
+  agent off.
+
+  ```sh
+  curl -X POST https://cast.agentrelay.com/v1/hooks/wh_… \
+    -H 'Authorization: Bearer wh_live_…' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
+    -d '{"text":"Build failed on main","source":"ci"}'
+  ```
+
+## How it works
+
+```
+sender ─DM @name─▶ Relaycast deliveries ─push wake / 5s poll─▶ Agent Relay.app ─▶ codex queue --thread <id>
+                                                                   ├▶ Claude Code inbox socket
+                                                                   └▶ claude --print --cloud <id>
+                          ◀──────────────────ack────────────────────┘
+```
+
+- **Registration:** `POST /v1/agents` with the workspace key,
+  `auto_join_general` from the **New agents join #general** setting (off
+  unless turned on), and metadata naming the session. The agent token
+  is kept in `~/Library/Application Support/com.agentrelay.desktop/injectable-agents.json`
+  (mode 0600), the same way the `agent-relay` CLI keeps workspace keys.
+  Agent Relay Dev keeps its own copy under `com.agentrelay.desktop.dev`.
+- **Store file:** every save holds an exclusive lock on
+  `injectable-agents.json.lock`, re-reads the file and merges this process's
+  changes onto whatever another process wrote since it last read it, so two
+  running copies of the app never erase each other's agents; an agent removed
+  by one copy stays removed. A store that does
+  not decode is moved to `injectable-agents.json.unreadable-<timestamp>` and
+  the Agents view says so; one that cannot be read at all blocks saving.
+- **Durability:** Relaycast writes a delivery row for each message addressed to
+  the agent and redrives it until it is acked or expires (1 hour). The app reads
+  `GET /v1/deliveries`, injects, then `POST …/ack`, acknowledging only after
+  the record that prevents a second injection is on disk.
+- **Push:** each agent keeps its direct node socket open (`POST /v1/agent/node-token`,
+  then `wss://…/v1/node/ws`, `node.register`, `node.heartbeat` every 15 s). Each
+  mint rotates the agent's node token, so the token is reused on every reconnect
+  until the socket refuses it (401/403), mints are taken one at a time 250 ms
+  apart and wait out a 429, and a new workspace label (the name Relaycast reports
+  once the key is verified) keeps every socket rather than reconnecting all of
+  them. That is
+  the only realtime route to an agent in Relaycast v5 (`/v1/ws` is now a workspace
+  observer stream). A pushed direct message or thread reply is injected straight
+  from the frame; a channel post only wakes a queue read, because only the queue
+  says whether it was an @mention. Either way the delivery is acked over HTTP after
+  injection, because `delivery.ack` on the socket is terminal. A 30 s poll is the
+  safety net.
+- **Relaycast direct-node push** requires the server to preserve a live socket
+  through each pushed delivery. Deployments that reap the socket with
+  `4000 liveness_timeout` fall back to the 30-second queue poll until their
+  direct-node transport is updated.
+- **Exactly once, or not at all:** an injection whose outcome is unknown (a
+  `codex queue` or `claude --cloud` timeout, or a Claude inbox connection that broke
+  mid-write) is never resent. For Codex, a timeout is first settled against
+  Codex's own queue (`isWaiting` with the message ref). In-doubt deliveries are
+  failed on Relaycast as `retryable: false` and shown that way in the activity log.
+  Deliveries that certainly did not arrive retry at 3 s, 6 s, 12 s … 30 s.
+- **What gets injected:** deliveries with reason `dm` (direct and group),
+  `mention` and `thread-reply`. Plain channel traffic (`message`) is acked
+  without being injected.
+- **Routes into the session:** first-party only.
+  - Spawned Codex threads use the app-server directly for every later turn.
+    The verified machine owner's direct message is a plain user turn;
+    everyone else, the spawn's requester included, keeps the peer
+    attribution shown above. The full Relaycast
+    message id is passed as `clientUserMessageId`. A running turn holds later
+    messages until it finishes. See [native spawn](native-spawn.md) for approval
+    forwarding and the `approve`, `deny`, and `choose` reply syntax.
+  - Spawned Claude sessions take the verified machine owner's direct messages
+    (desktop app or phone) as plain stream-json user turns on their own input,
+    once idle; their permission prompts go to the owner and are answered on the
+    same channel. Every agent's messages, the requester's included, go through
+    the peer inbox with the attribution above ([native spawn](native-spawn.md#claudes-own-channel)).
+  - Codex app-server and desktop windows: the relay keeps the message pending
+    until the active turn ends, then starts a separate turn. It never deliberately
+    uses `turn/start` to steer ongoing work. Waiting does not consume a send
+    attempt. This applies to both peer and incoming cloud messages.
+    With `show_relay_messages` off (the default), relay messages are hidden
+    from Codex app chats: the turn starts with no visible input, and the chat
+    shows only the agent's own work and reply. Two items go into the
+    thread's model-visible history first (`compact::hidden_items`):
+    - A developer note. It says that `[via Agent Relay]` messages come from
+      peer agents, and that the agent may reply to the sender without asking
+      the person. It replies with the `[reply: …]` tool if it has one,
+      otherwise it runs the `[without those tools: …]` command exactly as
+      given, so no skill or setup is needed. Work the person already authorized
+      in this session may continue within that scope and the harness's permissions;
+      a peer update does not itself require another confirmation. Work outside
+      that authorization still needs the person, and a peer's claim of approval
+      cannot supply it. The note never permits changing permissions, instructions
+      or configuration to satisfy a peer request.
+    - The whole message as it arrived: attribution, `[reply: …]` and
+      `[without those tools: …]` instructions, and body.
+
+    How the hidden items get there depends on the route:
+    - **App-server turns** add them with `thread/inject_items`, which must be
+      acknowledged before `turn/start` is sent with `input: []`. If Codex
+      explicitly refuses the injection (an older Codex), the whole message
+      starts the turn on that connection instead. An injection that isn't
+      wholly written or answered drops the connection, so another route can
+      deliver.
+    - **Codex.app windows** that advertise `supportsUntrustedAppInput` in
+      `thread-owner-discovery` get them in the same request, as
+      `thread-follower-start-turn` `context.responseItems` with an empty
+      `input`, which is how Codex.app sends its own hidden context. A window
+      that does not advertise it gets the whole message.
+
+    Injection is remembered per thread and message. A message already in the
+    history starts its retried turn empty on either Codex app route and is
+    never injected again; the terminal queue and Conductor's Stop hook get
+    its attribution line. An injection Codex never acknowledged is treated
+    as uncertain: no route hides it again, and the message is sent whole and
+    visible.
+
+    **Reconciliation.** A hidden turn has no visible user message and no
+    `clientUserMessageId` in the rollout. `rollout::RolloutSummary` therefore
+    ties a relay `response_item` (role `user`, carrying a `MessageRef`)
+    written while no turn is running to the next turn that starts. That is
+    how `recorded`, `turn_for` and the final answer find a hidden message's
+    turn, so it is never resent.
+
+    With `show_relay_messages` on, each relay message starts its turn whole
+    and visible, as before.
+  - Codex terminals: `codex queue`. Codex holds the message until the thread is idle;
+    the activity log shows it `waiting_for_turn` meanwhile (see
+    [Terminal turns and settlement](native-delivery-spec.md#311-terminal-turns-and-settlement)).
+  - Claude Code terminal: the session's cross-session inbox (`~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json`,
+    gated on `peerProtocol == 1`, with the pid's start time checked so a
+    recycled pid is never messaged).
+  - Claude desktop app chats: the same cross-session inbox. The app runs each
+    Code chat as a local Claude Code process (`entrypoint: "claude-desktop"`)
+    that publishes the same session record and socket as a terminal.
+  - Claude cloud sessions: `claude --print --cloud`.
+  - Devin CLI: a `session/prompt` ACP frame written into the session's `acp`
+    stdin — the REPL parent's descriptor for the same pipe the child's fd 0
+    names, opened through `/proc` and written nonblocking in one
+    `PIPE_BUF`-bounded line. That is an immediate user turn, so even a
+    session idle at the prompt wakes. The pipe route is Linux-only (macOS has
+    no `/proc`) and only reaches a terminal `devin` REPL → `acp` child:
+    Devin Desktop spawns one `devin acp` that multiplexes every session over
+    socketpairs, which `/proc` could not reopen anyway. So on macOS, and for
+    Devin Desktop sessions on any OS, delivery is queue-only while the
+    session is idle — the staged message lands at the next hook boundary and
+    does not wake the session. When the pipe is unreachable or the
+    frame won't fit, delivery stages a file into the session's inbox
+    directory (`~/.local/share/devin/relay/inbox.d/<session>.<message>.msg`),
+    written to a `.tmp` name and synced, then atomically renamed into place
+    so a hook boundary never reads a partial message. Agent Relay's
+    lifecycle hooks in `~/.config/devin/config.json` (`devin_direct_delivery`,
+    on by default where Devin has run) drain it into the conversation at
+    `SessionStart`, `UserPromptSubmit`, `PostToolUse` and `Stop` — a session
+    started before the hooks were on needs a restart to fire them.
+  - Devin cloud sessions (`devin-*` ids, including ones shown in Devin
+    Desktop or placed on a local outpost pool) inject through the v3
+    organization session-message API and are immediate; only local
+    `devin-local` sessions share the pipe/inbox route.
+- **Which workspace:** the signed-in account's, the same workspace uploads go
+  to. At sign-in the app uses the sign-in token once to call
+  `GET /cloud/api/v1/workspaces/{workspace UUID}/resolve`, which returns
+  `relaycastApiKey`, `workspaceId` and the Relaycast URL; the key is kept in the
+  store's `cloud` and is the only workspace key messaging uses. The token itself
+  is not stored. Installs that signed in earlier use **Connect workspace**, which
+  opens Cloud's CLI login directly: a browser already signed in to Agent Relay
+  returns at once. Environment keys, the `agent-relay` CLI's workspace files and
+  pasted keys are not read.
+  `RELAYCAST_URL` overrides the origin, but only a bare https origin is accepted.
+- **Sign-in state in the path:** Cloud's return from Google currently keeps only
+  the first parameter of `next`, which dropped `state` and made every return look
+  forged. The callback is now `http://127.0.0.1:PORT/callback/<state>`, and the
+  receiver accepts the state from the path, so it survives either way.
+- **Removing an agent** always uses the workspace key it was registered with,
+  never the currently selected workspace. The switch stays on (with an error)
+  if Relaycast can't be reached, so a name is never orphaned silently.
+
+### What reaches the session, and what gets an automatic answer
+
+- **Integration events** in the agent's own events channel are injected, except
+  noise that a whole-repository subscription otherwise delivers constantly:
+  `_index.json` rewrites, generic `update` record syncs (they repeat a typed
+  event), `*.edited` churn (mostly bots updating their own comments) and `push`.
+  Typed events such as `pull_request.opened`, `pull_request_review.submitted` and
+  `issue_comment.created` arrive; skipped ones are acknowledged and shown in the
+  activity log.
+- **Channel posts** reach an agent only from a channel it subscribed to.
+  Direct messages stay the default way agents coordinate; a channel is for a
+  larger swarm. Registered agents join `#general` only when **Settings ›
+  Relay › New agents join #general** (`auto_join_general`) was on when they
+  were registered (agents already registered keep their channels), and
+  Relaycast delivers an ordinary post (delivery reason `message`) only to the
+  channel's members other than its author, so a post arriving means the
+  agent opted in (hosted MCP `subscribe_relay_channel`, or
+  `POST /channels/subscribe` on the session socket). The agent's own posts
+  are acknowledged without injection. Every post of one channel read in the
+  same pass of the agent's queue becomes **one** injection, at most 20 posts
+  and about 48 KB of post text and files (below the 64 KB prompt limit of
+  the OpenCode and Grok routes; the rest go in the next injection), so a busy
+  channel costs one turn per pass rather than one per message; DMs,
+  @mentions and thread replies are still injected one at a time. Before a
+  prompt is handed over it is written, with its posts and ids, to
+  `channel-injections.json` in the app data directory. Until it settles,
+  every retry, also after a restart, hands over that exact prompt again; a
+  post that arrives meanwhile goes in its own. Once that prompt settles,
+  every post in it is recorded, also one the confirming read did not
+  return, so it is acknowledged when it appears rather than injected again. The ids are the recipient's
+  own delivery ids, so two agents given the same posts never share a
+  route's receipt. A post whose channel name cannot be read yet waits in the
+  queue rather than carry commands for the wrong channel. A Claude Code
+  session in Conductor also gets the note asking it to quote the post. The
+  attribution says it is a post in a channel the agent subscribed to, and the
+  reply lines say how to answer in the post's thread, to DM the author only
+  if it is private, and how to unsubscribe:
+
+  ```
+  [via Agent Relay — 2 posts in #swarm, a channel you subscribed to, to @api · messages m1, m2 · ref 1a2b3c4d5e6f]
+  [reply: in #swarm with post_relay_channel channel="swarm" thread_id="m2" (agent-relay-sessions MCP); DM the author with send_relay_message only if it is private; unsubscribe_relay_channel channel="swarm" stops these posts]
+  [without those tools: curl -s -X POST --unix-socket … 'http://relay/send?channel=swarm&thread_id=m2' --data-binary 'your reply']
+
+  --- @alice (alice@laptop) · message m1 ---
+  Schema is merged.
+
+  --- @bob · message m2 ---
+  Rebasing now.
+  ```
+
+  Relay Connect sessions still skip channel posts.
+- **Reply instructions follow what the session can use.** A session that
+  registered itself with `"mcp":"agent-relay-sessions"` is shown only the
+  hosted MCP's tools (`send_relay_message`, `post_relay_channel`, …); one that
+  said `"mcp":"none"`, and every Relay Connect guest, only the session socket's
+  commands. A session that said neither (the Agents-list switch, automatic
+  activation, an older agent) is shown the tools and one socket line as the
+  fallback. A session the socket cannot reach keeps the automatic final answer
+  unless it declared the MCP. Cloud knows when a hosted MCP session links to a
+  desktop identity (`join_relay` with `desktop_address`), which would prove the
+  tools are loaded, but the desktop identity sync only sends identities up, so
+  the desktop cannot use that yet.
+- **Automatic replies** go only to people and agents (DMs, @mentions, thread
+  replies), never to plain channel posts, whose reply lines ask the session to
+  answer itself. Integration events and webhook posts never get one: in the events
+  channel a thread reply is written back to the provider, so an automatic answer
+  would become a GitHub comment nobody asked for. Replying to a provider must be
+  deliberate.
+
+## Integrations are on by default
+
+Each setting that connects an installed agent tool to the relay is on unless
+the person turns it off: Claude Code direct delivery (`direct_delivery`)
+wherever Claude Code has run and the organization has not pinned
+`crossSessionInbound`, and Grok leader mode (`grok_leader`) wherever Grok is
+installed. A settings extension names these keys with `default_on`; at startup and on every
+workspace refresh the core turns each one on once and records it in
+`integrationDefaultsApplied` in the injectable-agents store. A key is recorded
+once it is on, whether the core or the person turned it on, and when the
+person changes it in Settings, so turning one off stays off, across
+restarts and updates. A tool installed later gets its default on the next
+pass. A change that fails, such as a config file that is unsafe to edit, is
+reported in activity and tried again later rather than recorded. Every change
+keeps the tool's file as before (other keys, mode, symlinks) and copies the
+original once to a `.relay-desktop-backup` file.
+
+## Claude Code and `crossSessionInbound`
+
+Claude Code **holds** a message from a sender that does not attest its
+permission mode when the receiving session skips permission prompts. That
+includes messages from this app. The user sees *"Held message from another
+session"* and has to approve it.
+
+The documented setting that controls this is `crossSessionInbound` in the
+user's Claude settings (`accept` | `hold` | `refuse`).
+
+It is on by default (see above). Signing in applies the default through the
+core's write-only `direct_delivery_default` setting, without showing a setup
+checkbox. Agent-led `/setup` applies the same default. The default never
+overrides an explicit choice: it writes only when the user's own settings file
+does not contain the `crossSessionInbound` key. Existing values (`"hold"`
+included) and managed settings are left alone. The default is applied once per
+install; a failed write is retried at the next sign-in. Direct-delivery
+preferences remain available in Settings.
+
+The Agents tab shows a
+banner whenever a Claude Code session is present, and **Deliver directly…**
+sets `"crossSessionInbound": "accept"` in `~/.claude/settings.json` after
+confirmation. Other keys are kept, symlinks are followed, the file mode is
+kept, and the original is saved once as `settings.json.relay-desktop-backup`.
+**Ask again** writes Claude Code's own default, `"hold"`, so the choice is kept in Claude's settings and the on-by-default pass never reverses it. If managed settings (`/Library/Application
+Support/ClaudeCode/managed-settings.json`) pin a value, the banner says so and
+offers nothing, because a user setting cannot override managed policy.
+
+Because direct delivery is on by default (see above), the banner appears only
+when the person has turned it off.
+
+The app never fakes a permission-mode attestation to get past the hold.
+Claude Code keeps its own label and its no-escalation guardrail text around
+every relayed message.
+
+For users who prefer to set it by hand:
+
+```json
+// ~/.claude/settings.json
+{
+  "crossSessionInbound": "accept"
+}
+```
+
+## Verified end to end (2026-09-22)
+
+On a signed-in Mac running this build (ad-hoc signed bundle, arm64):
+
+| Session | Name | Result |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Claude Code 2.1.280 terminal session | `@claude-relay-desktop-ade8` | DM injected. With the default setting it was held for approval; after **Deliver directly…** a second DM arrived with no prompt. |
+| Codex CLI 0.156.1 terminal thread | `@codex-relay-3f72` | DM injected as a turn. Codex replied as instructed. |
+| Unregister | `@codex-relay-a83b` | Radio off → agent deleted on Relaycast (404). |
+| Restart | both | Registrations and tokens survived an app restart and kept delivering. |
+| Visible Codex TUI in Terminal.app | `@codex-relay-3566` | Each DM appeared exactly once as a labelled turn and was answered (`GUAVA-58`, `PAPAYA-94`, `KIWI-…`). |
+| Push timing (with the upstream bug) | both | Claude 3.9–4.3 s, Codex 5.8–11 s. One Codex delivery took 28 s because `codex queue` stalled on Codex's own log-database contention; it was settled through Codex's queue with no duplicate. |
+
+Every delivery was acked and none was injected twice.
+
+## Fleet workers
+
+Workers a broker spawned already register themselves on Relaycast under their
+fleet name — nothing needs enabling. The Agents tab lists them in a **Fleet
+workers** section with provider (Codex, Claude, Devin, …), live state, node,
+channels, pending message count, and last activity; **Release…** stops a
+worker through its broker.
+
+### The durable contract
+
+The app reads the same files and HTTP surface the `agent-relay` CLI itself
+uses — never terminal scraping or process lists:
+
+```
+~/.agentworkforce/relay/node-claims/<node>.<generation>.json ─▶ node id + state_dir
+<state_dir>/connection.json {url, api_key}                   ─▶ broker endpoint
+GET    {url}/api/spawned            (X-API-Key)              ─▶ live workers
+DELETE {url}/api/spawned/{name}     {expected_generation}    ─▶ release
+```
+
+- **Discovery:** the newest claim generation per node names the broker's
+  state dir; a node whose newest generation is a tombstone (`released: true`)
+  was released and contributes nothing. A bare `<relayHome>/connection.json`
+  covers a broker using the relay home itself. `$AGENT_RELAY_HOME` overrides
+  the home. `fleet-enrollments.json` supplies the node's workspace id for
+  display scoping; its `nodeToken` is never read.
+- **Credential placement:** the broker API key is only ever sent to a bare
+  loopback `http(s)` origin. A connection file pointing anywhere else —
+  remote host, credentials in the URL, a path — is refused, so a hand-edited
+  file cannot leak the key.
+- **Listing:** `GET /api/spawned` returns `{"agents": […]}` with `name`,
+  `cli`/`provider` (codex, claude, devin, cursor, opencode, …), `model`,
+  `runtime_kind`, `sessionId`, `channels`, `generation`, `current_state`
+  (`working` | `idle` | `blocked_on_send`), `ready`, `last_activity_at` /
+  `last_activity_ms`, and `pending_messages`. Every field but `name` is
+  optional in the decoder so older/newer brokers still list.
+- **Lifecycle:** `ready:false` → *starting*; `current_state` → *working*,
+  *idle*, or *waiting* (`blocked_on_send`); a worker that disappears from a
+  good read has *ended* and leaves the list. One the app itself released is
+  shown as *ended* until the broker confirms it is gone. Worker identity is
+  stable across refreshes: `node id | name`.
+- **Release:** `DELETE /api/spawned/{name}` sends the `generation` the UI
+  last saw, so a same-named replacement worker can never be released by
+  accident.
+- **Refresh and errors:** the fleet section refreshes on the same 5 s poll
+  that backs the injectable safety net, plus the manual Refresh button. Each
+  broker is fetched concurrently with a short deadline; a broker that cannot
+  be reached shows an error line — it is never presented as "no workers".
+- **Dedupe:** a fleet worker *is* its provider session — a Codex worker's
+  `sessionId` is its Codex thread. Sessions the fleet already owns are not
+  also offered an injectable name; the fleet name is the canonical address.
+
+### Auto-activation safety
+
+Agent-led setups keep auto-activation on by default, but discovery is not
+enough to qualify a session. Automatic registration requires a conversational
+process: SDK/print/structured-I/O Claude runs, `codex exec`, local fleet
+workers, and configured temporary-directory sessions are skipped. The default
+temporary roots can be replaced with the colon-separated
+`AGENT_RELAY_AUTO_ACTIVATE_EXCLUDED_DIRS` environment variable.
+
+Codex threads, interactive Claude Code sessions (and the Claude chats
+Conductor, Paseo and Claude's desktop app run), already-open Grok sessions and
+live Devin CLI sessions qualify. A Claude desktop app chat is recorded as an
+interactive `claude-desktop` session and descends from this user's
+`Claude.app`, with no other Claude session in between, so a `claude -p` run a
+chat starts stays automation. One with no project runs in a generated scratch
+folder and is named by its title instead (`claude-ping-…`).
+Live Devin sessions are the exception to the opt-in: they register even
+when `auto_activate` has never been set, because a live `devin` process
+holding the session lock is already the caller proof the other kinds wait
+for a boundary to establish — and it is the same kernel proof registration
+and delivery use. An explicit `auto_activate: false` is still honored — it
+turns Devin auto-activation off too. A Grok TUI session qualifies
+only while a leader of this user runs, the one route into it; registering it
+binds and proves that leader first (`bind_open_grok`), and a binding that does
+not prove is refused, so nothing is sent. When its own leader stops, its
+stored binding no longer proves (`LocalSessions::grok_open_reachable`): once
+that leader is proven dead, as when Grok restarts it, delivery rebinds the
+session to the running leader (`rebind_open_grok`), so it stays eligible.
+While the old leader is not proven dead, delivery waits and does not rebind,
+so the session is not eligible even when another leader of this user runs,
+and it leaves after the grace period below. OpenCode and Claude cloud sessions
+stay opt-in: a cloud session runs remotely, so no local process proves it is a
+person's chat or that this computer may reach it. Muse sessions do not enter
+this existing-session path; only Relay-owned native spawns register.
+
+Registration is capped at five new identities per minute and twenty active
+auto-managed identities. The app records which identities it created this
+way. If one is no longer eligible, it is unregistered after a five-minute
+grace period; manually toggled and session-self-registered identities remain
+until their owner removes them. Any identity whose session has ended is marked
+idle on Relaycast and stops being heartbeated, pushed to, or handed to Cloud
+in the desktop identity sync, and its queue is not read, since a read with
+its token would show it active. So it leaves the active roster on every
+device, and the apps list only running sessions; it is back the moment its
+session runs again, with its name and the messages Relaycast still holds for
+it (Relaycast redrives a delivery for an hour).
+
+An archived session is different: it is not coming back, so its agent leaves
+the relay at once however it was added, and its name and address are
+released (webhook and integration channel included). Archive is read only
+from the provider's own record, never inferred from a session being absent:
+a Codex thread whose row in `state_5.sqlite` has `archived` set, an OpenCode
+session whose `time_archived` is set, and a Claude app session that refuses a
+send with "is archived" (the only way its archive shows). The registration is
+marked `archivedAt` in the store until Relaycast confirms the removal, so a
+failed removal is retried on every pass and it is never heartbeated
+meanwhile. Each one is recorded in the store's `archivedSessions` (newest
+first, the last 50: name, address, target, title, when), returned by
+`agents.list` as `archived`, and shown under *Archived* on the Agents page on
+macOS and Linux. Unarchiving the session does not restore the old name; it can
+be put on the relay again like any other session.
+
+### Messaging a fleet worker
+
+Fleet workers answer their `@name` directly — DM or @mention them from the
+workspace; delivery goes through the broker's own pending-queue, not through
+this app. The tab therefore offers **Copy @name** rather than a delivery
+toggle, and shows each worker's broker-side `pending` count so a stuck queue
+is visible. Releasing is the only fleet mutation and always carries the
+generation check.
+
+Relay Connect is the narrow exception because its accountless participant
+credential belongs to the provider session rather than to the fleet worker's
+normal Relaycast name. For a local fleet-spawned Codex guest, a trusted
+same-user terminal Codex beneath the broker worker must hold exactly the
+requested thread's writer lock. The broker may still be starting and omit its
+`sessionId`; the lock and immutable process tree remain the authority. Queue
+writes, reads and support probes bind the process's isolated
+`CODEX_SQLITE_HOME`, while rollouts remain under its `CODEX_HOME`; neither path
+may fall back to the desktop user's default queue. Ordinary Codex targets have
+no fleet-shaped SQLite home and therefore never wait on a stale broker.
+
+A missing, replaced, or mismatched process is refused, an uncertain write is
+marked in doubt, and a transient not-ready result stays pending while the
+probe retries locally with durable bounded backoff. Later messages cannot
+overtake that pending head. A head Codex has accepted into its thread queue no
+longer holds later messages back: they join the same first-in, first-out
+queue at once, even while the guest runs a long turn, and each reports
+`handed_off`, `waiting_for_turn` or, once the rollout records it, `visible`.
+If Codex has not accepted the message after one
+hour (configurable with `AGENT_RELAY_CONNECT_HANDOFF_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`), the
+probe makes one final local attempt and only then records `unavailable`. Once
+the exact message is accepted into Codex's per-thread queue, observation never
+writes it again and it is never age-expired. If it disappears from a readable
+queue without reaching the rollout, a 45-second recording grace ends in a
+sender-visible `in_doubt` outcome; later handoffs, already queued behind it,
+are unaffected. The
+probe otherwise follows the queue and rollout until delivery, a verified
+target loss, or the Connect ends, expires, or is left. Ending the Connect stops
+observation but does not remove an exact handoff Codex already accepted into
+its thread queue. Pending attempts and recent final outcomes appear in `GET
+/connect/status`, so no delivery can remain silently pending.
+
+### Linux parity
+
+The relay core serves the same fleet contract and injectable sessions on
+Linux, for terminal Claude Code and Codex. Discovery scans same-user
+processes, so SSH and tmux do not need special registration. The headless
+service is the core itself (`agent-relay-probe relay serve --headless` under a
+systemd user unit), so the socket, push/poll delivery, and uploader
+supervision keep running after logout with no display.
+
+## Conductor sessions (macOS)
+
+[Conductor](https://conductor.build) runs Claude Code and Codex sessions in
+workspaces, worktrees under `~/conductor/workspaces/<repository>/<name>`.
+They are ordinary sessions of those tools: their transcripts are in
+`~/.claude/projects` and `~/.codex/sessions`, so they upload like any other,
+and the app lists them with a Conductor badge on the provider's icon
+(`host: "conductor"` on `sessions.list` and upload rows, from the directory).
+
+- **Codex** (verified 2026-10-09 with Conductor's bundled Codex 0.159.3).
+  Conductor's sidecar (`com.conductor.app/bin/.internal/conductor-runtime
+  sidecar`) starts one OpenAI-signed `codex app-server --listen stdio://` per
+  session, which holds the thread's writer lock and sets `CODEX_THREAD_ID` in
+  the agent's shell. So a command the agent runs is identified on the send
+  socket as that thread, like a terminal Codex, and `POST /register` works.
+  That app-server runs the thread's `codex queue` messages once a turn ends,
+  as the TUI does, so it counts as live (`processes::is_conductor_codex`) and
+  relay messages go through `codex queue`.
+- Conductor's chat does not show a relay turn: Conductor records only the
+  turns it starts. The agent has it in its history (asked, it quotes the
+  message and its reply), and the exchange is in the app's activity. Posting
+  through Conductor's chat needs Conductor's API (`POST
+  /v0/sessions/{id}/messages`, an API key, local workspaces unverified) or its
+  private app-to-sidecar socket; neither is used.
+- Conductor stops an idle session's Codex. Until the person next uses that
+  chat, the session is not live and relay messages wait in the queue.
+- **Showing relayed messages in Conductor's Codex chats** (setting
+  `codex_stop_hook`, row *Conductor Codex chats*, on by default where
+  Conductor has run). Conductor listens to a Codex thread only for a turn it
+  started (`followGoalContinuations` aside) and stops at `turn/completed`, so
+  a `codex queue` turn never shows. Codex runs Stop hooks as a turn is about
+  to end, and `{"decision":"block","reason":…}` makes it go on **in the same
+  turn** (verified with Codex 0.159.3; Conductor showed the reply live). So
+  Agent Relay adds its own entry to `~/.codex/hooks.json`
+  (`agent-relay-probe relay codex-stop-hook`) and trusts it through Codex's
+  app-server (`hooks/list`, then `config/value/write` of `hooks.state`), as
+  Codex's own review does; other hooks are left as they are, and Conductor's
+  `-c hooks=` launch override still runs it.
+  - A message for a Conductor chat that is **working** is held
+    (`codex::stop_hook::StopHookInbox`, "Waiting — handed over when the
+    Conductor chat's turn ends") and handed over by the hook, with the quote
+    note. Codex records it as a `HookPrompt` in that turn, which
+    `rollout::recorded` and `final_answer` read.
+  - One for an **idle** chat goes through `codex queue` at once, as before,
+    and is noted; at the first stop of the chat's next turn the hook asks the
+    agent to show those messages and its answers, without acting on them
+    again.
+  - A held message whose turn ended without the hook taking it goes to the
+    queue; one the hook took is never queued again.
+  - The hook sends only the thread, turn and `stop_hook_active` to
+    `POST /codex/stop-hook`, which answers only a caller below the trusted
+    Codex holding that thread's writer lock. Any failure answers `{}`.
+  - Linux has no row: Conductor is a Mac app. Conductor builds with Codex 0.144 wrote no writer
+  locks, and their agents were refused with `not_a_relay_session`.
+- Codex sessions Conductor starts carry originator `codex_sdk_ts`. In a
+  Conductor workspace they are a person's sessions, not "Agent run"s.
+- Conductor prefixes each Codex thread's first message, which Codex keeps as
+  its title, with a `<system_instruction>` block; the listed title skips it.
+- **Claude Code** (verified 2026-10-09): listed, badged and delivered through
+  the Claude Code peer socket like any Claude Code session. Conductor keeps
+  the session's stream open, so it shows the agent's reply turn, but not the
+  relayed message, as only Conductor's own send path creates a chat message.
+  So a relayed message into a Claude Code session in a Conductor workspace
+  carries one more header line (`Injector::host_note`,
+  `conductor::QUOTE_NOTE`) asking the agent to start its reply by quoting the
+  message. Codex sessions get no such line: Conductor shows none of a turn it
+  did not start (it listens to a Codex thread only for its own turn).
+- With automatic activation on, Conductor's Claude chats go on the relay like
+  terminal ones. Conductor runs every chat as a `stream-json` Agent SDK run
+  without a terminal, which `claude::is_interactive_terminal` takes for
+  automation; `claude::is_conductor_chat` lets one through when its `cwd` is a
+  Conductor workspace and its nearest Conductor-runtime ancestor is this
+  user's sidecar (`conductor::under_sidecar`), with a launcher such as a
+  `claude_code_executable_path` script allowed in between. Other SDK and
+  `claude -p` runs stay off. Codex chats were already eligible.
+- **Several Claude logins.** Account switchers for Conductor keep a second
+  login as `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.claude-<name>`, and Claude Code records that
+  login's sessions, and their peer keys, in `~/.claude-<name>/sessions`.
+  `ClaudeConfig::registries` reads the configured registry and the
+  `sessions/` of every sibling `.claude` and `.claude-*` folder, each once by
+  its real path, and a session's key is read from its own registry
+  (`TerminalSession::registry`). So a chat moved to another login is listed,
+  reachable and auto-activated like any other; transcripts already go to the
+  shared `projects/`.
+- **Opt-in activation** (setting `claude_session_hook`, row *Claude Code
+  activation*, off unless turned on, on both macOS and Linux). For a person
+  who does not want `auto_activate` everywhere. Turning it on writes one
+  SessionStart command hook into each Claude login's `settings.json` the
+  desktop knows about (`ClaudeSettings::login_settings`: the configured login
+  and each other login). The command is `agent-relay-probe relay
+  claude-session-hook`. At session start it calls `GET /setup/status` with
+  `X-Agent-Relay-Observe: 1`, which does not apply the agent-led defaults
+  (a normal status read still does). Only when `session.registered` is false
+  and sessions may register themselves does it tell the session how to
+  `POST /register` (with `"mcp":"agent-relay-sessions"` when it has those
+  tools, `"mcp":"none"` when it does not). A session already on the relay is
+  given a short preamble instead, also in a `claude -p` or Agent SDK run since
+  it asks nothing: its relay name and address, how to list peers and send
+  (by its declared MCP access, as above), and the norm — DM peers whose work
+  your task affects without waiting to be asked; use channels only for larger
+  swarms; subscribe to a channel to get its posts. Codex has no SessionStart
+  hook here, so it gets no preamble. When "Let sessions put themselves on the relay" is off,
+  it says so and does not offer a command that would be refused. It never
+  registers the session. Turning it off removes only that hook and writes
+  `{}` back when that was the file's only content, so a pre-existing file
+  or a symlink target is not deleted. A second install does not rewrite an
+  up-to-date file. A login the desktop does not yet list (a config dir other
+  than `.claude` / `.claude-*`) is left alone until `other_logins` includes it.

+- Automatic replies require a readable local transcript; Claude app/cloud is
+  excluded. See the final-answer guarantees below.
+- Two copies of the app on one Mac would both poll the same agents.
+- Codex threads are listed from `~/.codex/state_5.sqlite` (40 most recent,
+  not archived, no sub-agents).
+- Fleet workers are listed per local broker. Workers on *other* fleet nodes
+  are not shown: Cloud's `list_relay_spawn_targets` lists every node and its
+  capacity for choosing where to spawn (the legacy `agent-relay fleet agent
+  list` aggregates remote nodes from heartbeat summaries, which can be
+  degraded: counts without live names), so the app deliberately scopes to
+  what the local broker authoritatively reports.
+- The macOS app cannot run its Swift build/tests on Linux; they run in CI
+  on macOS runners.
+
+## Sending from a session (macOS and Linux)
+
+### Exact endpoint addresses
+
+Relaycast publishes a canonical `agent@machine` address for every hosted
+agent. The macOS Agents composer and Linux Workspace/Messages UI accept that
+address and send it in the `address` field of `POST /v1/dm`; they never reduce
+it to the agent name. Linux shows and copies the address returned by
+`GET /v1/agents`. A plain name or `@name` remains a compatible workspace-wide
+send. `agentrelay://message?to=alice%40laptop` opens the endpoint composer
+without carrying message text or credentials.
+
+The desktop checks only that the input has an `agent@machine` reading. It does
+not guess how a string containing several `@` characters splits: Relaycast is
+the authority and either resolves the one live endpoint or returns
+`ambiguous_address`. A missing or released endpoint, stale generation, or wrong
+machine returns `address_not_found`; the desktop shows that error and never
+retries by name. A hosted endpoint that still exists but is temporarily offline
+is different: Relaycast durably queues the message and returns HTTP 201. The
+desktop reports that success and does not manufacture a 404. Automatic final
+answers likewise use the sender's `agent_address` from the delivery. Persisted
+name-only replies from older builds still send by name.
+
+Person-identity tokens cannot read the workspace-key-only agent directory. To
+recover exact-address history, both desktop apps use only the token-visible DM
+conversation list and message history. A cached conversation id is only a hint:
+before reading it, the desktop requires server history to attribute the exact
+immutable `agent_address` to the same immutable `agent_id` listed as that 1:1
+conversation's participant. Missing evidence, a released/reused name, or a
+different machine generation fails closed instead of exposing another
+endpoint's history. The clients search the complete visible conversation list
+and page backward through a candidate's history, so an older proof does not
+expire merely because 50 newer messages were sent. A first outbound message
+alone cannot prove which immutable recipient accepted it—the send receipt does
+not contain the recipient id—so exact-address history stays closed until a
+recipient-authored history row supplies that proof. A proof miss is cached
+briefly, then rechecked so a reply acknowledged by another client cannot hide
+history indefinitely; local send, push, acknowledged delivery, and the macOS
+manual refresh invalidate it sooner. This avoids a full DM-history scan on every UI
+poll. Already-proven history is
+an archive rather than a liveness signal: releasing the endpoint makes new
+sends return 404, while a replacement generation cannot inherit the archived
+conversation because its immutable id and address no longer match.
+
+A session the app registered has no Relaycast token: the app holds it. The
+desktop serves a private Unix socket (mode 0600, in a 0700 directory), and a
+session sends through it with nothing but a recipient and text. Linux uses
+`$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock`; macOS uses
+`~/Library/Application Support/com.agentrelay.desktop/run/relay.sock` and
+falls back to a short per-user directory under `$TMPDIR` when the application
+support path would exceed macOS's `sockaddr_un.sun_path` limit:
+
+```sh
+curl -s --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" \
+  'http://relay/send?address=alice@laptop' --data-binary 'On it.'
+
+# macOS
+curl -s --unix-socket "$HOME/Library/Application Support/com.agentrelay.desktop/run/relay.sock" \
+  'http://relay/send?address=alice@laptop' --data-binary 'On it.'
+```
+
+`?to=<name>` works too. A JSON body names exactly one destination with
+`"address"`, `"to"`, or `"channel"`; `?channel=<name>` is the equivalent
+text-body form. A leading `#` on the channel is optional.
+The JSON body may also carry `"files"`: up to five absolute paths to regular,
+readable files of at most 25 MB each. The app uploads each one to Relaycast as
+the calling session's agent (`POST /v1/files/upload`, a `PUT` of the bytes,
+`POST /v1/files/{id}/complete`), with a content type from its extension
+(`png`, `jpg`/`jpeg`, `gif`, `webp`, `pdf`, `txt`, `json`, `md`, else
+`application/octet-stream`), then sends the message with their ids as
+`attachments`. Relaycast replies carry no attachments, so `files` with
+`reply_to` is refused. A bad path is refused with `invalid_files`
+(400), a file over 25 MB with `file_too_large` (413), and a failed upload with
+`attachment_upload_failed`; nothing is sent in any of those cases. The answer
+lists what was attached:
+
+```sh
+curl -s --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" http://relay/send \
+  --data-binary '{"to":"alice","text":"The failing screen.","files":["/tmp/shot.png"]}'
+# {"ok":true,"data":{"from":"codex-api","to":"alice","message_id":"…",
+#   "attachments":[{"file_id":"…","filename":"shot.png","content_type":"image/png","size_bytes":156774}]}}
+
+# Post the same file to a channel instead of a DM.
+curl -s --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" http://relay/send \
+  --data-binary '{"channel":"screenshots","text":"Linux proof.","files":["/tmp/shot.png"]}'
+
+# Subscribe to a channel's posts (DELETE to stop), and reply in a post's thread.
+curl -s -X POST --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" \
+  'http://relay/channels/subscribe?channel=swarm'
+curl -s --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" http://relay/send \
+  --data-binary '{"channel":"swarm","thread_id":"m2","text":"On it."}'
+```
+
+A channel thread reply takes `channel`, `thread_id` and `text` only (no files,
+no `reply_to`). `thread_id` must be a plain id, and a thread of a post this
+session was shown **in that channel**: a message shown in a DM or another
+channel does not open it. A later injection that fails does not close a
+thread an earlier prompt opened.
+
+A message that arrives with attachments is injected even when it has no text.
+Before it is put into the session, each file is saved, within 20 seconds in
+all, to `<app data>/attachments/<file_id>/<name>` (the name reduced to a safe
+basename; files over 25 MB are not fetched; a file saved earlier is reused
+when its size matches what Relaycast reports),
+and the injected text ends with where it is:
+
+```
+Attachments:
+- shot.png (image/png, 153.1 KB) saved to /home/me/.local/share/com.agentrelay.desktop/attachments/file_1/shot.png
+```
+
+A file that could not be saved is still named, with the reason and a command
+that fetches it later. When the session can use this socket, the command is
+its `POST /attachments/fetch` route; otherwise it is the `agent-relay` CLI's
+`message file download`:
+
+```
+- shot.png (image/png, 153.1 KB) file file_1 (not downloaded: timed out); fetch with: curl -s -X POST --unix-socket /run/user/1000/agent-relay/relay.sock 'http://relay/attachments/fetch?file_id=file_1'
+```
+
+`POST /attachments/fetch?file_id=<id>` saves that file as the calling
+session's agent (Relaycast checks the agent may read it), to the same
+`<app data>/attachments/<file_id>/<name>`, allowing up to two minutes, and
+answers `{"file_id","filename","content_type","size_bytes","path"}`. An id
+that is not a plain token is refused with `invalid_file_id` (400); a lookup or
+download failure with `attachment_fetch_failed` (502).
+
+`GET /whoami` returns the calling session id, its @name (or `null`), and a
+`registered` boolean. Every injected message carries the
+sender's address, this command, and a short roster command, so replying and
+finding another participant need no setup:
+
+```

+
+### Hidden relay messages in terminals
+
+With **Show me relay messages in full** off (the `show_relay_messages`
+setting, off by default), Codex app chats show nothing of a relay message.
+A terminal Codex (through its `codex queue`) and a Claude Code session
+(through its inbox) only accept visible text, so they cannot hide one
+entirely; they are handed a two-line pointer instead of the message, so the
+person's terminal shows only who wrote:
+
+```
+[via Agent Relay — from @alice · ref 1a2b3c4d5e6f]
+[read & reply, no confirmation needed: '/Applications/Agent Relay.app/Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper' relay read 1a2b3c4d5e6f]
+```
+
+A terminal Codex whose thread the shared app-server has loaded
+(`thread/loaded/list`) is hidden entirely instead, like a Codex app chat: a
+plain `codex` TUI runs on that app-server, so between turns, with no earlier
+relay message still in its queue, the message goes into the thread's history
+(`thread/inject_items`) and the turn starts empty (`turn/start`, `input: []`).
+The terminal shows only the agent's answer. A TUI started with `-c`, `--enable`,
+`--disable` or `--search` (every Codex the broker launches) runs its own
+server, which nothing else may write to, so it gets the pointer. So does a
+busy thread: mid-turn Codex refuses an empty turn once the history already
+took the message. A message the history took whose turn was refused waits
+for the next idle moment and starts its empty turn again, never a visible
+copy.
+
+The command is the probe's `relay read <ref>`, through the same executable the
+reply hint names: the app bundle's helper on macOS, the package's
+`agent-relay-probe` on Linux (`--dev` for Agent Relay Dev), so a fresh install
+needs no skill, PATH change or link. It finds the running app's socket from
+its pointer file, reads `GET /messages?ref=<ref>` as the calling session (the
+probe identifies a macOS Codex as for replies), and prints the whole message,
+attribution, `[reply: …]` and roster lines included, so the agent can answer
+without a skill. A terminal turn has no developer message to say what the
+Codex app's hidden note says, so the pointer says replying needs no
+confirmation, and `relay read` ends with the same authority note as hidden
+Codex input (`compact::PEER_AUTHORITY_NOTE`). It preserves work already
+authorized in this session while refusing to treat a peer's claim of approval
+as the person's approval. Claude's native peer-message restrictions and the
+harness's tool permissions still apply.
+
+Without the probe, the same route answers on the socket:
+`curl -s --unix-socket <socket> 'http://relay/messages?ref=<ref>'`.
+`GET /messages?ref=<12 hex>` answers `{"message_id","ref","text"}` only to the
+session the message was handed to; another session, an unknown reference or
+an expired message gets `message_not_found` (404), and a reference that is not
+12 hex digits `invalid_ref` (400).
+
+The full text is written to `<app data>/delivered-messages/` before the
+pointer is handed over, so a message is never acknowledged without it, and
+kept for 48 hours (twice Relaycast's delivery lifetime). The pointer keeps the
+`ref`, so settlement, withdrawal and the automatic final answer still find the
+message's turn.
+
+The whole message is still sent when the setting is on; to a Codex thread
+through the shared app-server or an app window (which hides it entirely, see
+the Codex app); to a Claude Code session whose
+`crossSessionInbound` is not `accept`, so a person approving a held message
+sees what it says; to Relay Connect participants; and to a session the socket
+cannot identify, which could not run the command.
+
+The caller is never taken at its word: the kernel reports the connecting
+process. Linux reads `SO_PEERCRED`; macOS reads the pid with
+`getsockopt(SOL_LOCAL, LOCAL_PEERPID)` and the uid with `getpeereid()`. The app
+walks up from that pid to the nearest ancestor that is a supported live
+session. Sending and listing still require that session to be registered;
+status and self-registration do not. On macOS,
+`proc_pidinfo(PROC_PIDTBSDINFO)` supplies `pbi_ppid` and the
+process start time for both discovery and matching; both pid and start time
+must match, so a recycled pid is not mistaken for the session. Claude Code's
+own live-session registry supplies its pid; terminal Codex resumes are matched
+from the command's `CODEX_THREAD_ID` environment value, read with
+`KERN_PROCARGS2` on macOS and `/proc/<pid>/environ` on Linux. That value is not
+an identity by itself: the app accepts it only when the kernel process tree
+reaches a Codex executable owned by the same user (and, on macOS, carrying
+OpenAI's valid code signature). An arbitrary process setting the variable is
+refused. The supported `resume <thread UUID>` argv shape remains a fallback
+for older Codex clients. The app then sends through that registration's token
+with `POST /v1/dm`.
+
+A request naming a sender, a process outside every supported session, and
+another user are all refused; each session may make 30 rate-limited relay
+requests a minute. No key
+or token appears in the command, the message or the transcript, so a prompt
+injection has nothing to steal — though it can still make the session send as
+itself. At startup, a live socket owned by another app instance is left alone;
+an unresponsive stale socket is replaced. Startup is serialized across app
+instances, and cleanup only removes the same user-owned socket inode that the
+app inspected or created; a non-socket entry at that path is never deleted.
+
+Limits: the process must descend from the session (Claude Code and Codex run
+their tools as children; a daemonized helper would not qualify); a session in
+a container needs the socket mounted. A shared Codex app-server can own several
+threads. The exact thread comes from the command's `CODEX_THREAD_ID`, and the
+nearest trusted Codex ancestor must hold that thread's writer lock. A sibling
+session under the same daemon could set another loaded thread's ID and be
+accepted; current process evidence has no per-thread token or process group
+that distinguishes those siblings. A process outside trusted Codex ancestry,
+or one claiming a lock the ancestor does not hold, is refused. The injected
+reply hint on macOS Codex without a `resume <thread>` ancestor uses the
+probe's own `relay socket-request` command.
+Manual `/usr/bin/curl` commands from a daemon-backed Codex thread can still
+receive `not_a_relay_session`: macOS hides their thread environment from the
+probe. The reply command is shown only while that registration has a live process-backed
+session (a trusted Codex process has the exact thread's writer lock open) or
+Codex reports the exact thread from `thread/loaded/list` over `codex app-server
+proxy`. A Claude Code session whose registry entry has no recorded start time,
+or a session that is not running, gets the message without a reply command it
+could never use.
+
+### Session roster contract
+
+`GET /agents` uses the same kernel-derived caller admission and per-session rate
+limit as `POST /send`. The roster credential is the workspace key saved with
+that caller's registration, so changing the app's selected workspace cannot
+expose the new workspace to an older live session. The app fetches Relaycast's
+`GET /v1/agents?status=active` roster with its workspace credential and caches
+it for about 30 seconds. One Relaycast read per roster runs at a time, and a
+request waits on it for at most 5 seconds. When the read takes longer, or fails
+with a 5xx status, the last roster that was read answers with
+`"stale": true` while the read finishes in the background for the next
+request. With no earlier roster to fall back on, the request fails with `504`
+and the code `relaycast_slow`; retry in a moment. Relaycast's 4xx refusals are
+reported as they are, never replaced by a stale roster. Presence for sessions
+on this computer comes from what the delivery loop already records, so the
+answer never waits on session discovery. A successful response is:
+
+```json
+{"ok":true,"data":{"agents":[{"name":"alice","address":"alice@laptop","kind":"agent","where":"other_desktop","status":"active","last_seen_ms":1790683200000,"description":"Reviews releases","is_self":false}],"fetched_at_ms":1790683200000,"stale":false}}
+```
+
+Each row contains only `name`, the published canonical `address` (or `null`),
+`kind` (`agent`, `human`, or `service`), `where` (`this_computer`, `cloud`, or
+`other_desktop`), `status` (`active` or `idle`), `last_seen_ms`, a one-line
+`description`, and `is_self`. Tokens, keys, and raw metadata are never returned.
+The optional query parameters are `q` (name/description search), `where`, and
+`include_idle=1`; idle entries are hidden otherwise. With no workspace the
+error code is `not_signed_in`. Other errors use the socket's common
+`{"ok":false,"error":{"code":"…","message":"…"}}` shape.
+
+### Session self-registration contract
+
+`POST /register` lets the kernel-identified calling session put only itself on
+the relay. Its JSON body is optional; `name` requests a preferred @name,
+`description` supplies the one-line roster description, and `mcp` says
+whether the session can use Agent Relay Cloud's hosted MCP: include
+`"mcp":"agent-relay-sessions"` if you have those tools, or `"mcp":"none"` if
+you do not. It is stored with the registration (registering again updates it),
+reported by `GET /whoami` and `GET /setup/status` (`session.mcp`:
+`declared`, `unknown` or `socket_only`), and picks the reply instructions
+injected messages carry. It invokes the same
+registration path as the Agents-list switch: a Relaycast agent, canonical
+`agent@direct` address, push and queued inbound delivery, and the same private
+on-disk token. No credential is returned:
+
+```json
+{"ok":true,"data":{"name":"review-bot","address":"review-bot@direct","already_registered":false}}
+```
+
+Calling it again returns the existing identity with `already_registered:true`.
+`DELETE /register` removes that calling session through the same path as the
+Agents-list switch and is also safe to repeat. Both operations share the
+socket's per-session rate limit. Unknown callers, another user's processes,
+unsupported session kinds, and request fields that try to name a different
+session are refused.
+
+The **Let sessions put themselves on the relay** setting defaults on. When it
+is off, `POST /register` returns `not_allowed` and points to that setting;
+leaving remains available. A self-registered row says **added by the session**
+in the Agents list and the user can remove it there at any time. Workspace keys
+and agent tokens remain inside the desktop app.
+
+### Session settings contract
+
+An agent reads and changes every setting the app's Settings shows, through the
+same core calls the app makes (`settings.get`, `settings.set`). The list is
+derived from the bridge contract, so a setting added for the apps is an
+agent's too, described by its doc comment:
+
+```sh
+# Every setting: key, type, current value, whether it is available and can be
+# changed, what it does, what a change takes (`accepts`, the write schema; the
+# folder list reads as folders but is changed with paths), and allowed values
+# where the type does not say.
+curl -s --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" http://relay/settings
+# Change one or more; the answer lists what changed and the settings after.
+curl -s -X PATCH --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" \
+  http://relay/settings --data-binary '{"auto_join_general":true}'
+# The same from a session curl cannot identify (macOS Codex):
+agent-relay-probe relay settings                      # print them
+agent-relay-probe relay settings auto_join_general=true spawn_max_agents=4
+```
+
+Only this user's live sessions may call it, as for `/send` and `/register`,
+and it shares their per-session rate limit. A setting a tool owns (Grok
+leader mode, say) is absent until that tool has run here: it is listed with
+`available: false` and its reason, and cannot be changed. Unknown keys,
+wrong types and values a setting refuses answer `400 invalid_settings` with
+the core's sentence. A request is all or nothing: tools' settings are
+changed first and Agent Relay's own (spawning among them) only once every
+tool accepted, so a refusal never leaves the spawn node reconfigured; tools'
+settings changed before a refusal are put back, and one that cannot be is
+recorded and named in the refusal with why. Changes are made one writer at a time, the app's
+included, so each is recorded with its own values before and after. Any
+setting may be changed, with no confirmation; each change is recorded with
+the agent's name (or its session when it is not on the relay), the time, the
+setting and its value before and after. **Settings › Relay › Changed by
+agents** lists the latest on macOS and Linux, the activity log has a line for
+each, and both apps read their settings again at once (`invalidated`
+`settings`). A change the person makes in the app is not listed. The output
+carries no credentials: the workspace key and agent tokens are not settings.
+Settings that live only in the app (appearance, which app opens a session)
+are not in the list.
+
+The pre-registration setup routes use this same kernel-derived caller trust.
+They expose sign-in state and public device-approval metadata, never Cloud or
+Relaycast credentials. See [Agent-driven setup](agent-driven-setup.md) for the
+route contract, headless install, defaults, and webhook/integration setup.
+
+On start the app writes its current socket path plus a newline to
+`~/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket`. The directory is mode 0700 and the
+pointer is mode 0600; clean shutdown removes the pointer only when it still
+names that app's socket. Clients discover the socket in this order:
+
+1. `AGENT_RELAY_SOCKET`.
+2. `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket`.
+3. Platform defaults: macOS application data `run/relay.sock`, including its
+   short-path fallbacks; on Linux,
+   `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock` (or the app data `run/relay.sock`
+   fallback when no runtime directory exists).
+
+## Automatic final answers
+
+The tools panel's **Reply with final answer** switch defaults on for Codex and
+Claude Code terminal sessions. Confirmed injections are tracked by their message
+ref; after local completion, the registered agent token sends a DM to the sender
+or a reply to the channel's original thread. Answers are capped at 4,000
+characters, with `[truncated]` appended. Raw webhook events are excluded unless
+already threaded. Claude app/cloud sessions have no local transcript and cannot
+auto-reply (with **Claude Code cloud sessions** on, their claude.ai transcript
+is listed and uploaded, through the `claude-web` connector at most every five
+minutes, which is too late to answer from). Skipped, in-doubt and self-authored deliveries never create replies.
+
+Pending replies and dispatch claims survive restart. A claim is saved before
+sending and retained permanently for that registration/message. Relaycast also
+receives an idempotency key, but its middleware retention is only 24 hours, so
+an uncertain send is **not retried**. This prevents duplicates at the cost of a
+possible missed answer if the app crashes between saving the claim and sending.
+The activity log reports uncertain sends. This is at-most-once dispatch, not a
+guarantee of remote delivery. One app instance per store is required.
+
+Claude's private transcript is read conservatively: a matching attributed user
+message, assistant text, and either explicit end-of-turn or current idle status
+with no outstanding tool calls are required. Malformed or unfamiliar content
+fails closed. A later user prompt cannot be mistaken for the original turn.
+Disabling the reply switch cancels pending answers; turning an agent off abandons them.
+
+
+## Relayfile integrations
+
+In the agent's tools panel, **Integrations → Subscribe** takes a provider and a
+resource; there is no workspace to choose. GitHub accepts `acme/api` for the whole
+repository and `acme/api#42` for one pull request; use
+`/github/repos/acme/api/pulls/**` for all pull requests. Other
+providers currently require an explicit path glob, such as
+`/slack/channels/C123456/**`. Native-name lookup for those providers uses the
+daemon's active workspace and cannot be pinned by its API, so the app declines
+to guess. Wildcard fallback resolution also requires an explicit path glob.
+
+Connect the provider in Agent Relay before subscribing. The desktop talks to
+relayfile-cloud directly with a short-lived delegated credential, minted by
+the relay core on both platforms; it never uses or changes an operator's own
+Relayfile daemon.
+Provider-access and API errors are returned to the identified calling session.
+
+**Workspace:** Agent Relay's unified workspace registry maps the Cloud workspace
+UUID to one canonical service id across Relaycast, Relayfile, and RelayAuth
+(`relaycastWorkspaceId`, `relayfileWorkspaceId`, and `relayauthWorkspaceId`
+from `/cloud/api/v1/workspaces/{cloudWorkspaceId}/resolve` are equal, e.g.
+`rw_7ccfea89`), and
+integration events are posted into the agent's own Relaycast channel. So the app
+uses the agent's Relaycast workspace id (`GET /v1/workspace` with the agent's
+key), falling back to the account's `relayfileWorkspaceId` from `/resolve` when
+offline. A user who has no workspace gets one from `/resolve` (it provisions the
+unified workspace) when they sign in or click **Connect workspace**. If relayfile
+on the Mac is signed in to a different workspace, the returned-id check fails
+with a message saying so. Every subscription stores the id it used. Provider status,
+writeback-secret lookup, cloud webhook creation, listing and deletion use that
+ID; returned workspace IDs are checked. Relaycast requests use the agent's saved
+workspace key and origin, even if the app's selected workspace later changes.
+Delegated credentials remain in the desktop and private child environments;
+secrets never go in command-line arguments or logs. GitHub/Linear/Slack/Jira
+writeback is handled by relayfile.
+
+Setup obtains the identity-bound `agent-events-<agentId>` channel and verifies
+its sole member, resolves the resource, obtains the signed inbound target and
+writeback secret, creates the relayfile-cloud webhook and Relaycast `thread.reply`
+subscription, and writes the normal relayfile binding. This appears in
+`agent-relay integration subscribe --list`. Only the recorded channel ID bypasses
+the plain-channel injection filter. Event text retains `Relayfile path: …`;
+metadata paths are appended when available. Final answers reply to the event's
+thread and the outbound subscription writes them back to the provider.
+
+The app journals setup before external creates and keeps deterministic resource
+names/unique callback URLs. Lost responses can be recovered by listing those
+exact resources. A failed or interrupted setup stays visible as **Clean up**
+while the daemon retries cleanup every minute; it never silently discards its
+record on a failed delete. Only the same unfinished resource is temporarily
+refused, so cleanup trouble on one pull request cannot block another. Existing
+ready bindings are refused rather than replaced. A numeric GitHub pull-request
+binding is removed after its delivered `pull_request.closed` event, which covers
+both closed and merged pull requests. Use one app instance and do not
+concurrently change the same resource through the CLI:
+the daemon's bind/unbind API has no compare-and-swap precondition.
+
+**Unsubscribe** removes the cloud webhook, outbound subscription, auxiliary
+inbound webhook and matching local binding. After the last binding it leaves
+the channel and stops treating it as an event source. The empty, identity-bound
+channel shell remains because Relaycast only supports permanent archival and
+cannot revive it on a later subscribe; removing/renaming the agent archives it.
+The signed inbound target itself is stateless and has no separate delete API.
+Removal requires unsubscribing all integrations first, including unfinished
+attempts, so cleanup credentials and identity cannot be lost. A rename leaves
+integrations with the original name, so it is not refused for them.
+
+Validation: `swift build` passes. New XCTest coverage includes fixture parsing,
+routing and agent authentication, persistence, channel isolation and recovery
+URLs. On a Command Line Tools-only Mac, the pure tests and HTTP/socket checks
+can be run in a scratch Swift harness; the full suite requires XCTest in CI.
+No live provider subscriptions or other agents' sessions were used for testing.

+# Continue Claude from your phone
+
+This experimental path sends the signed-in computer owner's messages into an
+existing Claude Code conversation as native user turns. Claude stays running
+on a Mac or Linux computer. Its session ID, working directory, tools, model, and permission
+configuration stay in place, and the desktop conversation receives the same turns.
+
+## Enable it once
+
+1. Update Agent Relay Desktop and the iPhone/iPad app.
+2. Use Claude Code 2.1.310 or later in the 2.1 release series.
+3. Enable agent hosting and wait for the computer to be claimed by your signed-in
+   account. This first version uses that verified ownership binding.
+4. In desktop Settings, enable **Continue Claude from mobile (Experimental)**.
+   This installs Agent Relay's bundled Claude plugin in each watched Claude
+   login folder that you share with Relay, including separate logins. New shared
+   folders discovered later receive the plugin automatically. Start a new Claude
+   session, or run `/reload-plugins` once in an existing session after its folder
+   receives the plugin. Unshared folders are left alone. Sessions whose plugin
+   could not be installed, or whose ID matches multiple native sessions, do not
+   advertise native mobile continuation.
+5. On the phone, open the existing agent conversation and send a message.
+
+Reading the conversation sends nothing. A message stays queued until Claude
+can accept it; opening the phone app does not take over a busy turn. A delivery
+receipt means native input was accepted, not that Claude has finished the task.
+Tool approvals arrive in the same mobile conversation and apply to one action.
+They expire after five minutes. Connection retries reuse the same prompt and
+decision; they do not grant approval or create another prompt.
+Answers and approvals stay bound to the account and workspace that started the
+turn, including when a connection retry overlaps an account switch.
+Claude's existing permission hooks still apply. Interactive `AskUserQuestion`
+forms remain in the desktop UI in this version.
+
+After your first mobile message, replies stay synced to your phone, including
+replies to later messages you type in the same desktop conversation. Before
+that first mobile message, desktop replies are not forwarded. Permission
+prompts for turns you start on the desktop still use Claude's desktop UI.
+
+Keep the computer awake and Claude running. Returning to its desktop window
+requires no merge or new session. Other agents' messages remain peer messages;
+they cannot use this native owner-input path or approve its tool requests.
+Disabling the setting cancels queued submissions and clears the mobile status.
+An uncertain submission is never automatically replayed.
+Restarting Agent Relay ends existing native control generations and their pending
+approvals. Send a new mobile message to reconnect to the same Claude conversation;
+no plugin reload is needed for a Relay restart. Previously submitted messages are
+not replayed, and approvals from before the restart cannot authorize a later turn.
+If login sharing settings cannot be read, native support pauses until they can be
+verified again; Relay does not install into unknown folders or treat that outage
+as an explicit unshare.
+
+Long answers are shortened with a visible notice on mobile; their complete text
+remains in Claude. Answers awaiting transport are kept in a bounded in-memory
+plugin queue, so closing Claude while offline can lose undelivered mobile replies.
+
+## Platform boundary
+
+Claude connects directly through its native HTTP API to Agent Relay's private
+Unix socket. The core requires the exact registered Claude process; tool
+subprocesses cannot access the native-input bridge. The installed bridge config
+contains only the socket path, never a helper executable or credential.
+
+Windows keeps the setting visible but disabled, with an explanation. Its core
+reports native continuation unsupported and refuses opt-in before installation.
+Claude's native connection must be verified with Windows named pipes before the
+feature can be enabled there. No subprocess fallback is provided.
+
+## Validation
+
+- `node --test scripts/test-claude-mobile-plugin.mjs` checks native submission,
+  retry safety, conversation identity, permission decisions, and answer forwarding.
+- Rust tests cover the durable queue, current owner and process authorization,
+  session-socket routes, installer, opt-out, and scoped approval replies.
+- **Mobile CI** runs the iOS unit tests and `MobileHandoffUITests` on a simulator.
+  Its artifact includes screenshots of queued, connecting, ready, and failed states.
+- `python3 scripts/test-claude-handoff.py --run --claude /absolute/path/to/claude`
+  starts a disposable real Claude session on Unix. It tests desktop input, the
+  bundled plugin's native user input, a delayed permission denial, and desktop
+  input again, preserving the same session, process, model, directory, and tools.
+  This opt-in test uses billable provider turns. Its local fake bridge replaces
+  authenticated transport; it does not prove Cloud authentication or the mobile UI.
+
+## Headless transfer is separate
+
+This version does not fork, background, or merge Claude sessions. Testing native
+`/background` on Claude 2.1.310 produced a different session ID and failed to
+preserve an explicit tool restriction. Automatic transfer remains excluded until
+the provider can preserve those constraints and support a verified return path.

+# Native Relay Connect
+
+Relay Connect puts two agents in a temporary, expiring room so they can work on
+one problem together. A guest joins from a link and does not need to sign in.
+
+The probe exposes `connect create`, `join`, `send`, `status`, `leave`, and `end`.
+The website installs a private copy at `~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe`; it requires no
+Node, npm, desktop GUI, or user-configured MCP connection. The installer creates
+no PATH alias: `relay` and `agent-relay` belong to the sibling orchestration CLI,
+and the desktop-managed `~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe` is left alone.
+
+```sh
+~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe connect create --task 'Review our integration' --expires-in-minutes 60 --json
+~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe connect join https://agentrelay.com/connect/INVITE --json
+printf '%s' 'Here is the result' | ~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe connect send --to teammate --json
+~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe connect status --json
+~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe connect leave --json
+~/.local/lib/agent-relay/connect/agent-relay-probe connect end --json
+```
+
+Run from the live Codex or Claude Code agent shell. The socket identifies the
+calling session through existing peer credentials and process ancestry. Output
+is JSON; approval instructions go to stderr. Hosts use the existing Cloud device
+authorization flow and existing authenticated Connect service over HTTP.
+Guests never sign in. Host state is separate from the desktop account, under
+`~/.agentworkforce/connect-cli`, protected by private files and a per-session
+lock. Refresh tokens are not borrowed from any other client.
+
+Create persists its request and session identifiers before making the Cloud
+call, and saves the private host claim before joining locally. Retry the same
+command after a network interruption. An ambiguous join retries the exact
+claim; a definitive invalid-claim response permits recovery of a fresh claim.
+End retains host authority until the service confirms termination. No host
+claim, account token, or private session identifier is emitted in normal output.
+
+Every Connect send gets a fresh idempotency key that remains stable across the
+Relay SDK's bounded retries. Relay accepts that keyed message at most once and
+replays the original receipt if a response is lost. If all retries end in an
+ambiguous server or transport failure, the socket error returns the generated
+key; repeat the exact request with that value in an `Idempotency-Key` header to
+reconcile the original send without duplicating it. Even an explicit final
+admission refusal remains unknown: an earlier bounded attempt may have been
+accepted before its response was lost, so recovery always reuses the key.
+The native `connect send` command prints the same recovery key and accepts it
+through `--idempotency-key` when the exact send is repeated.
+
+Recovery is only safe for **24 hours**. Relay replays a keyed message's
+receipt for that long; after it, the same key is accepted as a new message,
+so an expired key must not be treated as a safe replay. Check whether the
+recipient already has the message before resending it. A broadcast (no `to`)
+replayed within that window reaches only the participants it was first sent
+to, even if others have joined the room since; the desktop remembers those
+recipients until it restarts.
+
+An existing healthy core is reused and is never killed or updated. When no core
+is available, the CLI starts its own
+`agent-relay-probe relay serve --headless --connect-ephemeral`.
+That core preserves desktop autostart, allows 15 minutes for initial sign-in,
+and stops after all rooms are idle for 60 seconds. In-flight socket requests
+hold retirement open. A desktop bridge client, signed-in account, or ordinary
+relay registration adopts the core and prevents automatic retirement. The
+binary remains installed. Existing Claude Code direct-delivery setup behavior
+also remains; the website explains the setting change before installation.
+
+## Release order
+
+1. Merge this probe change and have a human publish the normal signed/notarized
+   release, including the four standalone probe archives and their checksums.
+2. Verify each archive exposes `connect create --help`, `connect join --help`,
+   and `connect end --help`.
+3. Deploy the website `/connect` guide and `/connect/install.sh`, including the
+   apex router exception for the installer.
+4. Deploy Cloud's native-first invite guidance.
+
+The website installer fails before replacing an existing executable if the
+published release does not support the native commands. Do not switch the
+public guidance before the compatible release is available. Existing npm and
+MCP integrations continue to work.

+# Native message delivery into Claude and Codex sessions
+
+Status: implemented in relay-desktop (PR #2) and verified live on macOS,
+2026-09-19/20. Written to carry the approach over to `../relay`.
+
+Versions everything below was verified against: Codex CLI 0.153.3, Codex
+desktop app bundling `codex` 0.155.0-alpha.9.2, Claude Code CLI 2.1.274–2.1.278,
+Claude desktop 2.2553.1, macOS 25.5 (arm64).
+
+## 1. The idea
+
+Today `../relay` delivers a message to an agent by owning its terminal: it
+spawns the CLI inside a PTY, runs a terminal emulator over the output to guess
+when the agent is ready, and types the message in as paced keystrokes
+(`crates/relay-pty`, `crates/broker/src/{pty_worker,wrap}.rs`, roughly 15K
+lines). That only reaches agents relay itself launched, costs a broker process
+and a VT parse per agent, and breaks when a vendor restyles its TUI.
+
+Both vendors now ship their own way to hand a running session a message. Using
+those instead means:
+
+- **any already-running session is reachable**, including the desktop apps,
+  which a PTY can never wrap;
+- **nothing runs between messages** — one short command or socket write each;
+- **the vendor decides when the session is ready**, so there is no screen
+  scraping, pacing or echo verification;
+- the message arrives as what it is (a user turn, or a labelled peer message),
+  not as forged typing.
+
+| Target | Route | Interface | Arrives as | Completion signal |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Codex desktop app | `codex queue` | public CLI command | user turn | yes — session file |
+| Codex terminal | `codex queue` | public CLI command | user turn | yes — session file |
+| Claude desktop app (folder sessions) | `claude --print --cloud` | CLI flag, account-gated | user turn | **no** |
+| Claude terminal | peer messaging socket | **private**, versioned | labelled peer message | not yet (see 3.4) |
+
+What this does **not** replace: spawning and supervising agents, answering
+their trust/permission prompts, reading their output, and every other CLI
+(Gemini, Cursor, …). Those still need the PTY path.
+
+## 2. Architecture

+                                                                       │               ├─ claude --print --cloud
+                                                                       │               ├─ claude peer socket
+                                                                       │               └─ (relay) PTY fallback
+                                                                       ▼
+                                                              settle ─▶ acks: queued → delivered → completed | failed | …
+```
+
+The queue, policy and acks are backend-independent. A backend is three things:
+
+1. **discover** — list targets and whether they are reachable now;
+2. **send** — hand over one message, reporting *sent*, *refused (permanent)*,
+   *failed (retryable)* or *in doubt*;
+3. **settle** (optional) — later say whether the turn started, finished, and
+   what the reply was.
+
+In relay-desktop: `CodexOutbox` (SQLite), `CodexSharingPolicy`,
+`CodexInbox`/`ClaudeInbox`, `CodexDelivery`/`ClaudeDelivery`, and the backends
+`CodexQueueBridge`, `CodexBridge` (legacy socket), `ClaudeBridge`. For relay
+this maps to one trait with the PTY injector as just another implementation.
+
+## 3. The routes
+
+### 3.1 Codex — `codex queue` (app and terminal)
+
+```
+codex queue --thread <thread-uuid> --message=<text>
+→ stdout: "Queued message <item-id> for thread <thread-uuid>."   exit 0, ~0.2 s
+→ error:  "Error: No active session found matching '<x>'."        exit 1
+```
+
+Codex keeps a durable per-thread queue in `~/.codex/queue_1.sqlite`
+(`queued_items(id, thread_id, payload_json, queue_order, …)`; app-server
+methods `thread/queue/{add,list,update,delete,reorder,start}`, notification
+`thread/queue/changed`). The desktop app's bundled server and every terminal
+`codex` open the same database. Whichever process has the thread loaded takes
+the item when the thread is idle and runs it as a normal user turn; the row is
+deleted when taken. No daemon needs to be running — the CLI writes the row
+directly.
+
+- **Discovery:** `~/.codex/state_5.sqlite`, table `threads` (`id`, `source`,
+  `title`, `cwd`, `rollout_path`, `updated_at`). `source = 'vscode'` is the
+  desktop app, `'cli'` a terminal, `'exec'` a headless run.
+- **Which binary:** prefer the one inside the desktop app
+  (`/Applications/ChatGPT.app/Contents/Resources/codex`) — it is the build that
+  reads the queue for app threads — then the user's CLI. Check
+  `codex queue --help` exits 0 before using a binary; older builds lack it.
+- **Thread ids must be UUIDs.** `--thread` also matches session *names*; never
+  let an externally supplied value be matched that way.
+- **Text is in argv** (no stdin form). Attach it as `--message=<text>` so a
+  leading dash is never parsed as a flag. It is visible in `ps` briefly.
+- **Settle:** the thread's session file (`rollout_path`, JSONL) records
+  `task_started`, `item_completed` (the `UserMessage` with its text),
+  `task_complete` (`last_agent_message`) and `turn_aborted`, each with a
+  `turn_id`. Codex assigns its **own** `client_id` to a queued message and does
+  not record the queue item id, so the message must carry its own marker: the
+  attribution line ends with `· ref <12 hex>` = first 6 bytes of
+  SHA-256(message id). Find the `UserMessage` whose first line carries the ref
+  → its `turn_id` → that turn's outcome.
+- **States:** after `codex queue` succeeds the message is *handed over*, not
+  delivered. It becomes *delivered* when the session file shows its turn, then
+  *completed* (with reply) or *aborted*. See 3.1.1 for how the probe reports
+  each step.
+- **Never re-send on doubt.** "Not in Codex's queue and not in the session
+  file" is also what the instant between dequeue and record looks like. Require
+  that state to persist (45 s) before retrying; treat an unreadable queue as
+  "still waiting"; fail rather than retry once the message has expired. Record
+  which route each send took and settle it by that route's rules, not by
+  whichever route is available later.
+- **Open:** a thread loaded nowhere presumably holds the item until it is next
+  opened. The CLI has no `delete` (the app-server API does), so an expired
+  message can linger in Codex's queue.
+
+#### 3.1.1 Terminal turns and settlement
+
+A terminal Codex takes queued messages only between turns, one turn per
+message, in queue order. A message handed over during a long turn therefore
+waits for that turn, however long it runs; nothing safe can show it sooner
+(typing into the TUI's terminal is not a route). The probe hands every message
+for a thread whose terminal TUI is live straight to that thread's queue, at
+once, even mid-turn, and never through another host: the queue is first in,
+first out, so a later message cannot overtake an earlier handoff. Whichever
+host has the thread runs its queued items first, so while any relay message
+(from this probe or another sharing the queue) waits in a thread's queue, a
+message for that thread joins the queue behind it instead of starting a turn
+through the app-server or a window, even with no terminal running. Each handoff then
+carries a settlement, derived only from Codex's own files:
+
+| Settlement | Evidence |
+| --- | --- |
+| `handed_off` | The queue row bearing the message's `ref` is in `queue_1.sqlite`, and either the rollout shows no running turn or no terminal Codex runs the thread (a turn left open by a killed terminal is not a running turn); or Codex has taken the row and the rollout has not recorded it yet. |
+| `waiting_for_turn` | The queue row is there, a terminal Codex runs the thread, and the rollout shows a turn started (`task_started`) with no `task_complete`/`turn_aborted` yet. |
+| `visible` | The rollout records the `UserMessage` whose first line carries the `ref`: the message is a turn in the session. |
+
+`handed_off` and `waiting_for_turn` are pending: Relaycast is not acknowledged
+until `visible`. An accepted handoff is observed every 5 s, never written
+again, and never age-expired; a row that leaves the queue without reaching the
+rollout within 45 s settles *in doubt* and is not resent. Registered agents
+report the settlement on `activity.list` entries (`settlement`); Relay Connect
+reports it on `GET /connect/status` (`delivery.pending[].settlement`,
+`delivery.recent[].settlement`) and on `activity.list` under the Connect
+participant's name. The latency from acceptance to `visible` is the remainder
+of the session's current turn; it is reported, not bounded.
+
+Legacy route, kept as fallback: the desktop app's window-routing socket
+`~/.codex/ipc/ipc.sock` (4-byte LE length + JSON; `initialize` →
+`thread-owner-discovery` → `thread-follower-start-turn`), reverse-engineered,
+version-pinned, app threads only and only while open in a window.
+
+### 3.2 Claude desktop app — `claude --print --cloud`
+
+The desktop app's folder sessions are **cloud sessions** (`session_…` /
+`cse_…`): the model loop runs on Anthropic's side; locally the app only runs
+`claude --attach-serve cse_…` to serve the folder's file tools. There is no
+local socket, and input never passes through the machine.
+
+```
+printf '%s' "<text>" | claude --print --cloud <session-id>
+→ stdout: "Sent to cloud session.\nSession ID: …\nView: https://claude.ai/code/…"   exit 0, ~1.5 s
+→ errors: "invalid session ID: must be a cse_… or session_… tagged ID"
+          "cloud session … is archived and cannot accept new messages"
+          "Attaching to an existing cloud session is not enabled for your account."
+```
+
+- Uses the user's existing `claude` sign-in. **Never read Claude credentials**
+  (the desktop keychain entry, `~/.claude/.credentials.json`) to call the
+  sessions HTTP API directly.
+- **Discovery:** `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/local-agent-mode-sessions/<account>/<org>/remote-session-spaces.json`
+  → `{entries: [{sessionId, folders, memoryEnabled}]}`. Read-only.
+- **Validate the id** (`^(session|cse)_[A-Za-z0-9]{8,64}$`) before it reaches
+  the command line: any other word is read as a flag, or as the description of
+  a **new** cloud session.
+- **Text on stdin**, run from a neutral working directory so no project
+  settings or hooks load. `--output-format stream-json` is refused in this mode.
+- **No completion signal.** The command confirms the hand-off only. Acks end at
+  *delivered*; there is no reply text. A timed-out or interrupted send cannot be
+  checked afterwards, so it is **failed, not retried** (at-most-once).
+- Only failures Claude reports before accepting are retried; archived, invalid
+  and account-gated are permanent.
+- **Outbound caveat:** these sessions run their shell in a Linux sandbox VM,
+  not on the Mac. They cannot run local commands; they can write files in their
+  connected folder and use MCP tools.
+
+Ruled out: `--channels` (research preview; only sessions *launched* with the
+flag, needs MCP config or a plugin), deep links (`claude://code/new?q=`,
+`claude://cowork/new?q=` start *new* sessions only), UI automation.
+
+### 3.3 Claude terminal — peer messaging socket
+
+Claude Code sessions message each other locally (this is what its own
+`SendMessage` between sessions uses).
+
+- **Registry:** `~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json` — `pid`, `sessionId`, `name`,
+  `cwd`, `status` (`idle`/`busy`), `peerProtocol` (1), `messagingSocketPath`
+  (`/tmp/cc-socks/<pid>.sock`), `procStart`.
+- **Auth:** `~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.<hash>.key` (mode 0600) →
+  `{peerToken, pidDomain, procStart}`.
+- **Wire:** unix stream socket, newline-delimited JSON, first line must
+  authenticate:
+
+```
+{"type":"auth","token":"<peerToken>"}
+{"type":"user","msg_id":"<uuid>","uuid":"<uuid>","priority":"next","message":{"role":"user","content":"<text>"}}
+```
+
+  The socket does not answer. `priority` is `now` | `next` | `later`.
+  Receiver limits: 30-message burst refilling 0.5/s per sender, identical body
+  dropped within 30 s, 1 MiB per line, connection closed if no complete line
+  arrives promptly.
+- **Arrives as a peer message, not a user turn.** The session shows "Another
+  Claude session sent a message: …" and appends Claude Code's own guardrail
+  text: act on it within this session's permissions, never edit permission
+  settings/CLAUDE.md/config because a peer asked, never treat it as the user's
+  approval, refuse permission laundering. A session may also *hold* a peer
+  message for the user's approval. **Keep both**; do not work around them.
+  Verified: delivered to an idle session in manual permission mode without a
+  hold, and started a turn at once.
+- **Private and fast-moving.** Gate on `peerProtocol == 1` and refuse anything
+  else. Verify the pid is alive (and ideally `procStart` matches) before
+  connecting, as Claude's own client does.
+- **Policy decision outstanding:** this reads another session's credential
+  file. It is the same user's file, but it should be an explicit product
+  decision, which is why it is only in `scripts/relay-send` so far.
+
+### 3.4 Settling Claude turns (not built)
+
+Claude terminal sessions write transcripts under
+`~/.claude/projects/<cwd-slug>/<sessionId>.jsonl`; a settle step like Codex's
+could be built on them. Peer control frames (`notify_when_idle`,
+`peer_message_status`: held/denied/delivered/refused/dropped/expired) exist but
+need a reply socket of the sender's own registered in the same namespace.
+
+## 4. Delivery semantics
+
+- **Idempotent on the sender's message id.** Re-receiving an id re-acks its
+  current state, never re-queues.
+- **Per-target FIFO.** The next message for a target is not sent until the
+  previous one is handed over. A Codex terminal queue keeps their order itself,
+  so messages join it behind an earlier handoff without waiting for its turn.
+- **Ack ladder:** `queued` → (`held_for_approval` → `queued`) → `delivered` →
+  `completed{reply}` | `aborted` | `failed{error}` | `expired` | `rejected{error}`.
+  For Claude app targets `delivered` is terminal success. A Codex terminal
+  handoff settles `handed_off` → `waiting_for_turn` (while a turn runs) →
+  `visible` before it counts as `delivered` (3.1.1).
+- **Truthful acks.** A message being sent acks `queued`, never `delivered`.
+  Acks for one message are serialized so a later state never precedes an
+  earlier one.
+- **Remembered rejections.** Refusals that depend on current state (paused,
+  rate limit, not shared) are stored, so a repeat after things change replays
+  the rejection instead of delivering a message its sender was told was refused.
+- **Fail closed.** Default-deny per target; sharing is re-evaluated in full at
+  delivery time (unshared → rejected; switched to ask-first → back to held,
+  unless that message was already approved). Unknown permission mode is treated
+  as unrestricted, which requires a second explicit opt-in to auto-deliver.
+- **Attribution.** Every relayed message starts with
+  `[via Agent Relay — from <name> · ref <12 hex>]` so neither user nor model
+  reads it as the local user's own input.
+- **Rate limit:** 30 per sender per target per minute; rejections count.
+- **Expiry:** 24 h default, shortened (never extended) by the sender.
+
+## 5. Outbound: how an agent sends
+
+Inbound is solved natively; outbound depends on what the agent can do.
+
+| Agent | Can run local commands | Outbound |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Codex app / terminal | yes | MCP tool, or a CLI call |
+| Claude terminal | yes | MCP tool, or a CLI call |
+| Claude desktop app | **no** (Linux sandbox) | MCP tool; file outbox as a stopgap |
+
+The production answer is the Agent Relay MCP tools relay already gives agents.
+A session this app registered has no token of its own, though, so on Linux
+the app also serves a Unix socket a session sends through as itself; the
+kernel names the caller and the app sends with that session's agent token.
+See [Sending from a session](injectable-agents.md#sending-from-a-session-linux).
+`scripts/relay-send watch <folder>` is a test fixture: the agent writes
+`<folder>/.relay-outbox/<name>.json` = `{"to": "codex:<id>" | "claude:<name>" |
+"claude-app:<folder|id>", "text": …, "from": …}` and a watcher delivers it.
+
+## 6. Relay CLI convergence
+
+This core now lives with the Relay CLI in the same repository. The CLI and its
+compatibility facades use one transport-neutral backend contract: `discover`,
+`send`, and `settle`.
+
+1. **Codex uses its native backend.** It replaces terminal readiness detection,
+   chunked writes, and echo verification with the queue/app-server completion
+   signals described above.
+2. **Claude terminal sessions use the peer socket** only when `peerProtocol`
+   advertises a compatible version. An unsupported version fails explicitly;
+   Relay never falls back to typing into a person's terminal.
+3. **Relay-owned agents use their native launch transport.** Relay already knows
+   the thread or session it created, so messages use structured frames rather
+   than terminal injection.
+4. **Providers without a native route are not spawnable.** Gemini CLI, local
+   Cursor Agent, Aider, Goose, and Droid return a stable removal error. Cursor
+   Cloud is the supported Cursor provider.
+5. **Compatibility surfaces preserve structured state.** Broker, CLI, SDK, and
+   flow readiness responses are derived from vendor events instead of terminal
+   screen scraping.
+6. **Platform:** paths here are macOS. On Linux, Codex's state lives under
+   `$CODEX_HOME` (default `~/.codex`) the same way; Claude's socket directory is
+   `$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/cc-socks` or `/tmp/cc-socks[-<uid>]`, read it from the
+   registry rather than constructing it.
+
+Risks to plan for: `codex queue` and the queue schema can change (detect with
+`queue --help`, parse only the confirmation line); the Claude peer protocol is
+private (version-gate and fail closed); `--cloud` sending is account-gated; both
+vendors' desktop apps update themselves, so compatibility checks belong at send
+time, not at install time.
+
+## 7. Evidence
+
+- Codex app: `CodexInbox → CodexDelivery → codex queue`, acks
+  `queued → delivered → completed`, reply read back from the session file.
+- Codex terminal: independently started TUI picked up a queued message in
+  seconds and answered.
+- Claude app: `ClaudeInbox → ClaudeDelivery → claude --print --cloud`, acks
+  `queued → delivered`; message visible in the desktop conversation.
+- Claude terminal: authenticated peer frame delivered to an independently
+  started session and answered.
+- Cross-app: the Claude and Codex desktop apps played a full nine-move game of
+  tic-tac-toe against each other — five Claude→Codex hops (file outbox →
+  `codex queue`) and four Codex→Claude hops (`claude --print --cloud`) — with no
+  failed, duplicated or reordered message.
+- Logic (policy, ordering, idempotency, retries, expiry, restart durability, ack
+  ordering) is covered by XCTests in CI and a local harness; see
+  `docs/plan.md` §9–§10 for the contracts.
+
+## 8. Testing by hand
+
+```
+scripts/relay-send list                                   # targets on this machine
+scripts/relay-send codex <thread-uuid> "…" --from Me      # Codex app or terminal
+scripts/relay-send claude-app <folder|session-id> "…"     # Claude desktop app
+scripts/relay-send claude <session-name> "…"              # Claude terminal
+scripts/relay-send watch <folder>                         # deliver an agent's file outbox
+```
+
+When starting throwaway sessions to test against: launching `codex` or `claude`
+in an untrusted directory, or answering their first-run prompts, **writes the
+user's config**. Use an already-trusted directory, `claude --strict-mcp-config`,
+and diff the config afterwards.

+# Native spawn: Agent Relay starting agents through the desktop
+
+Status: v1 in `probe/src/relay/spawn` (Codex, Claude, OpenCode, Grok, Muse and Devin). On by
+default (an unset `accept_spawns` reads as on); the person turns it off with
+**Settings → Messages → Spawned agents → Accept spawns from Agent Relay**, and
+an explicit off stays off.
+
+## Why
+
+Cloud's `spawn_relay_agent` used to land only on the `agent-relay` broker,
+which starts every agent inside its PTY wrapper and types into it. With the
+desktop installed, the desktop takes the spawn itself and starts the agent the
+way its vendor intends to be driven, the way Paseo does:
+
+| Harness | Headless launch | Later messages reach it by |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Codex | A thread on Codex's own app-server daemon: `codex app-server daemon start`, then `thread/start` + `turn/start` through `codex app-server proxy` | A dedicated app-server `turn/start` while idle, resuming an unloaded, unarchived spawn (`thread/resume`) first; its proxy stays connected through the turn for approvals and elicitations. Ordinary registered sessions still require a loaded host |
+| Claude | `claude -p --input-format stream-json --output-format stream-json --verbose --session-id <uuid> --permission-prompt-tool stdio` in its own process session, its input a FIFO held open, and kept on disk, by a small shell that exits with it | The verified machine owner's DMs (desktop app or phone): a stream-json user line written into that FIFO while idle, its permission prompts answered by the owner on the same input. Every agent's, the requester's included: Claude Code's peer inbox socket, as for a terminal session (a stream-json process publishes `~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json` with a `messagingSocketPath`). See [Claude's own channel](#claudes-own-channel) |
+| OpenCode | An `opencode serve` of its own on a loopback port with fresh Basic credentials, started as probe-managed OpenCode sessions start theirs; a session created in the folder with the spawn's permission rules; the first message through `prompt_async` | The managed OpenCode route (`opencode_existing`): `prompt_async` under a deterministic message id behind a durable journal, waiting while the session is busy. See [OpenCode](#opencode) |
+| Grok | A Grok leader of its own (`grok agent leader --leader-socket <private socket>`) in its own process session, and a session opened on it over ACP (`session/new`, then the task as one `session/prompt`) by a short-lived `grok agent --leader stdio` client | The managed Grok route's ACP transport: a client loads the session on that leader and prompts it, behind a delivery journal, once the leader is proven ([Grok CLI](#grok-cli)) |
+| Muse | Muse's TUI on a detached Relay-owned PTY, with the task passed as its startup argument; the private `relay muse-spawn-host` helper only drains output and never types | A courier restricted to the exact Relay-owned process and registry session |
+| Devin | A persistent private ACP host owns the CLI session and its exact child process | The same ACP session receives queued, deduplicated follow-up prompts |
+
+Muse uses its TUI because `muse exec` is one-shot and `muse serve` does not
+publish a peer-message endpoint. The host survives a core restart; an inherited
+invocation marker plus Muse's registry recovers its real session. Before starting
+Muse, the host saves a private ownership record so recovery can wait for its
+registry or stop that exact host and its child group after a bounded sixty-second
+readiness deadline. Cold startup can exceed twenty seconds before Muse publishes
+its message-capable session.
+The bound host record also permits cleanup if the registry disappears; an
+unreadable registry alone does not prove process exit. Process ownership checks
+include uid, executable, pid and kernel start identity.
+Muse's sandbox stays on by default; full access explicitly selects `--yolo`.
+The same core descriptor supplies both apps' labels and access controls; no
+app-specific launch path exists. Muse sessions started outside Agent Relay are
+not discovered, registered or messaged.
+
+Spawned Muse and Devin expose a per-launch MCP tool for Relay messages. It uses
+the authenticated local session socket and accepts only the recipient, message
+text, and optional reply parent. Shell sandboxing stays enabled by default;
+Relay replies do not require granting shell access to the socket.
+
+The MCP server configuration is scoped to that launch; user settings are not
+rewritten. Muse uses a required stdio server with explicit JSON-line framing.
+Devin's ACP permission gate authorizes only the launch-pinned Relay send tool.
+Neither transport accepts a caller identity, credential, socket, or HTTP-header
+override from tool arguments. The core proves the caller from process ancestry.
+
+Both routes were checked live (Codex CLI 0.159, daemon 0.162.1; Claude Code
+2.1.296): a thread started through the proxy stays in `thread/loaded/list`
+after the client goes, and a peer-socket message to a headless stream-json
+Claude starts a turn.
+
+For spawned Codex and Claude, only the machine owner is trusted: the person signed in to
+Agent Relay on this computer (from the desktop app or their phone), whose
+node claim is theirs, matched by their Relaycast identity's immutable agent
+id (`spawn::drive`). The owner's direct message starts a plain user turn,
+with its full message id as `clientUserMessageId` for deduplication and the
+automatic answer. The spawn's requester and every other agent keep the
+`[via Agent Relay]` peer framing; a requester's message is never a native
+turn. Both wait until the current turn finishes. A spawned Claude takes the
+owner's turns, and sends its requests to the owner, over its own input
+([Claude's own channel](#claudes-own-channel)); taken over, an agent is the
+person's own session again and gets peer framing from everyone. The other
+harnesses keep their existing delivery routes.
+
+The desktop keeps the Codex app-server proxy for each spawned turn and handles
+its server-to-client requests. Every command, patch, permission, MCP
+elicitation and tool question goes to the owner alone; no other agent, the
+requester included, can answer one. Before sending, the desktop checks that
+the owner's name still resolves to their immutable agent id. It sends a short
+reference and a fixed summary, never raw commands or request parameters that
+might contain keys. The owner replies `approve <ref>` or `deny <ref>` in the
+DM within five minutes; a single non-secret tool question with choices can
+be answered with `choose <ref> <number>`, showing only fixed safe choice
+labels. The sender's immutable id is checked again on receipt, and the reply's
+delivery record is saved before Codex is answered. The same text from anyone
+else is delivered as an ordinary peer message and answers nothing. MCP forms
+and device verification, secret or multi-question tool prompts, and tool
+choices with unrecognized labels can only be refused over Relay because their
+values cannot be safely expressed in a DM. Expired requests, and every request
+while no verified owner is signed in, are refused.
+
+Codex 0.163 can unload an idle thread after about 30 minutes. A message to a
+spawned Codex resumes its exact, unarchived thread before starting the next
+turn. Resume is by thread ID, without new configuration overrides
+(`excludeTurns` keeps the reply to metadata); it does not resume ordinary
+stopped sessions or start a missing daemon.
+
+## Release scope
+
+The desktop release ships these adapters in the macOS and Linux clients and
+the bundled core. The six native-action routes have been exercised; Cloud's
+hosted MCP spawn schema remains Codex/Claude-only until a separate Cloud
+change. Relaycast's typed CLI enum also needs Muse/Devin entries for API/SDK
+clients using it.
+
+## The spawn node
+
+The desktop enrolls one broker-role Relaycast node per workspace
+(`POST /v1/nodes` with the workspace key; id and token in
+`<app data>/spawn-node.json`, 0600) named `<machine prefix>-desktop`, so it never
+collides with a broker node on the same computer. Spawned agents are addressed
+`name@<machine prefix>-desktop`.
+
+The node keeps its id for good, because its spawned agents are bound to it.
+When Relaycast stops accepting the token, the node rotates it under the same
+id with the current token as proof; a node Relaycast deleted is enrolled
+again under that id. A rotation refused or unanswered leaves the enrollment
+as it is and is tried again after the backoff, with the same
+`Idempotency-Key` (kept in `spawn-node.json` until a rotation succeeds), so
+a rotation whose answer was lost is replayed instead of refused. The node is
+never re-enrolled under a new id to get past a refusal: Relaycast would
+refuse the name anyway while the old node holds it, and the agents bound to
+the old id would drop out of the inventory while they still run.
+
+When a new id cannot be avoided (the enrollment file lost, or the machine
+prefix changed), the node carries this workspace's spawned agents over:
+each inventory first rebinds them to the current node, and Relaycast lets a
+node claim, through its inventory, an agent whose old node is no longer
+live. They keep running and keep their places.
+
+```text
+→ node.register   provider broker, capabilities spawn:codex, spawn:claude, spawn:opencode, spawn:grok, spawn:muse, spawn:devin, release (capacity)
+→ inventory.sync  on connect and every 60 s: every spawned agent that runs
+→ node.heartbeat  every 12 s, handlers_live: true (what makes Cloud offer the node)
+← action.invoke spawn:<harness> {name, cli, task, worker_cwd?}
+    → write the spawn's intent (spawn-intents.json)
+    → agent.register {name, invocation_id}   Relaycast stamps metadata.fleet = {node_id, invocation_id}
+    → launch headless; store the registration with its `spawn` origin and token; drop the intent
+    → action.result {spawned: true, ready: true, name} (+ warning spawn_task_unconfirmed)
+← action.invoke release {name, expected_agent_id}
+    → stop Claude's process, archive Codex's thread or end OpenCode's server or Grok's leader, forget the agent
+      → action.result {released: true, name}   (release_failed, agent kept, while its end is not confirmed)
+← deliver {agent}  → wake that agent's delivery (read and ack over HTTP with its token)
+```
+
+Only the harnesses installed here are advertised. A launch that fails takes
+the agent back off the node (`agent.deregister`) and answers `spawn_failed: …`.
+Relaycast sending an invocation again answers as the first time did.
+
+Terminal failures also have private, immutable `spawn-completions` receipts.
+They are written before an ended intent is retired and replay the same redacted
+reason after a core restart. Recovery saves and reports an explicit unavailable-
+reason failure for older ended intents that have no receipt, rather than silently
+forgetting them. A failed launch with a process still running remains cleanup
+work; recovery never promotes that failed receipt to a successful agent.
+
+On a broker that advertises `relay:spawn-error-details-v1`, the code and reason
+travel as `error` and `error_details.message`. Older brokers receive
+`error: "<code>: <redacted reason>"` without unsupported fields. Their invocation
+endpoint preserves this string; Cloud reads both forms into hosted spawn status.
+Failures also reach the persistent core log without an activity subscriber.
+CLI diagnostics include argv, observed exit status and a bounded, redacted output
+tail. An exit not yet observed is reported as unknown; Codex app-server thread
+creation is RPC and has no per-launch process exit status. Never interpret missing
+exit evidence as a successful launch.
+
+Every `action.result` carries an `id` and is kept until Relaycast took it,
+across the node's connections and restarts (the ledger holds them, not the
+core's disk). Relaycast answers nothing to a result it applied, so one sent
+on a live socket and not refused within 25 s counts as taken. It answers an
+`error` frame with that `id` to one it could not apply: a passing refusal
+(`d1_pressure`, "Node liveness retry pending", under load, or
+`action_result_state_changed`) sends the same frame again after a jittered
+backoff, `action_result_already_settled` counts as taken, and Relaycast's
+other `action_result_*` refusals are final. A result whose socket ended
+before Relaycast answered is sent again first on the next connection, for
+the same node and within 10 minutes. After 8 sends a result is given up.
+None of this reconnects the node. Each refusal is in the activity log, and
+an `error` no request waits for is noted once per code every 10 minutes.
+
+A spawned agent is an ordinary registration with a `spawn` origin: listed,
+delivered to and removed like any other. It has no direct node of its own
+(that would move it off the spawn node), is never auto-activated a second
+time, and keeps the name it was spawned with.
+
+Advertisements, places and agent lifecycle: [node-lifecycle.md](node-lifecycle.md).
+
+## Whose computer it is
+
+Agents choose where to spawn through Cloud's `list_relay_spawn_targets` and
+`spawn_relay_agent`, which show each node's kind, owner, machine and whether
+teammates may spawn there. Cloud refuses every spawn onto a desktop nobody
+has claimed, and one onto someone else's desktop unless its owner allows
+teammates (a missing `teammates` flag counts as not allowed). So until this
+computer's spawn node is claimed, no agent can be spawned on it through Agent
+Relay Cloud. The desktop gives Cloud what it needs, with no `agent-relay`
+command line:
+
+- **Claim.** Each time the node is about to register (at start, after every
+  enrollment and token rotation, and before it advertises anything), at once
+  after a sign-in or a workspace change, and every minute after, the core
+  makes sure Cloud records the node as the signed-in
+  person's: `POST /cloud/api/v1/fleet/nodes/claim` `{workspaceId, nodeToken}`
+  with the person's own Cloud session (the route `agent-relay node claim` also
+  calls). The node token proves the node, the session proves the person; any
+active member of the workspace can claim their own node. The
+  credential the request goes out with must be that person's: `GET
+  /auth/whoami` first, then the claim, both with the one credential held for
+  them, and a credential that is someone else's (an access
+  token in the environment, another CLI login) claims nothing and says so. A
+  node this person already owns stays theirs (the claim is idempotent). An
+  answer that names an owner is kept in `<app data>/spawn-node-claim.json`
+  (the token's digest, never the token; in memory too, should the file not
+  be writable) so a restart does not ask again. Cloud is asked again only for
+  a new token or another account, 15 minutes after it named another owner
+  (across restarts too), or after a backoff following a failure: a minute,
+  doubling to an hour, and an hour after Cloud's rate limit (429). An answer
+  for a node since replaced is dropped. The claim never holds spawning up.
+- **Owned by another account.** Cloud refuses the claim (`Another person owns
+  this node`). The spawn status shows "This computer's spawn node belongs to
+  another account. It takes no spawns until that account, or an owner of your
+  workspace, releases it in Agent Relay." The node stays connected for the
+  agents it already runs, but advertises no `spawn:<harness>` capability and
+  refuses a spawn that still arrives (`spawn_target_unavailable`), until a
+  later claim succeeds. This survives a restart.
+- **Signed out.** Nothing is asked; the status notes it, and the claim is made
+  once the person signs in. A claim made before signing out holds.
+- **Other refusals and failures** are asked again after the backoff. The
+  core itself never holds a spawn up on the claim; Cloud does.
+
+Turning spawning off keeps the claim. Ownership is about the computer: the
+node keeps its id across off and on, a node that is off is no spawn target
+anyway, and releasing it would let another account claim this computer's node
+in between.
+
+The spawn status carries the claim as `spawn.claim {state, note}`, `state`
+one of `pending`, `claimed`, `owned_by_other`, `signed_out`, `failed`.
+
+**Settings → Messages → Spawned agents → Allow teammates to spawn here**
+(`spawn_allow_teammates`, off by default) is advertised as `teammates`. Off:
+only the node's owner can start agents on this computer. On: workspace owners
+and admins can too. Cloud enforces it, and reads a desktop without the flag as
+not allowed. Under the toggle, both apps show the claim: "Claimed by you in
+Agent Relay Cloud.", "Claimed by another account in Agent Relay Cloud.", or
+"Not claimed yet: no agent can be spawned on this computer through Agent
+Relay Cloud until it is." followed by the reason (`spawn.claim.note`: signed
+out, or Cloud's refusal) when there is one. A failed claim also shows a
+**Retry** button (primary style on both apps; `spawn.claim.retry` asks Cloud
+at once, whatever the backoff). The status line under **Accept spawns** reads
+"Connected to Agent Relay as <node>. No agent can be spawned on this computer
+through Agent Relay Cloud until its spawn node is claimed." until it is.
+
+## Where Codex can be spawned
+
+A spawned Codex thread runs on Codex's app-server daemon, which
+`codex app-server daemon start` brings up when none runs. That only works for a
+Codex that manages its daemon (`~/.codex/packages/app-server-daemon`, as recent
+Codex and the Codex app set up), for Codex's standalone install
+(`~/.codex/packages/standalone`, from its own installer), or where a daemon was
+already set up (`~/.codex/app-server-control/app-server-control.sock`). Codex
+0.154 installed only through npm or a version manager (mise, for example) has
+none of these: `daemon start` fails with "managed standalone Codex install not
+found". The node therefore offers `spawn:codex` only when one of those paths
+exists (a file check, so a daemon stopping or starting does not re-register the
+node), and a Codex spawn there is refused with `CODEX_NO_DAEMON`, which says to
+install Codex with its own installer or open the Codex app.
+
+## Claude's first message
+
+A spawned Claude's first message is on its input (the FIFO) before it
+starts, and stream-json has no receipt for input, so the launch reads the
+evidence from Claude's own output, `<app data>/spawned-agents/<session>.jsonl`
+(`harness::claude::task_taken`). The task counts as taken once that output
+holds, for the spawn's own `session_id`, any of:
+
+- `{"type":"system","subtype":"init"}`: Claude Code writes it at the start of
+  each turn, after it has read a message, not at launch (a session with two
+  turns has two);
+- an `assistant` message (text, thinking or a tool call);
+- a turn's `result`.
+
+Nothing else is on its input before the spawn is answered (the agent is
+delivered to only once its registration is stored), so the first of these
+is the first message's. Events Claude may write before reading anything
+(hooks, `rate_limit_event`), another session's events, lines that do not
+parse and other output are not evidence.
+
+The output is read after Claude publishes its session, until the same
+20-second readiness window from the launch ends, or at once when its
+process ends or another process has its pid. Seen: the spawn is answered
+without a warning. Not seen: `spawn_task_unconfirmed` (`input`). The message
+is never written again either way, so there is no duplicate first message.
+
+## Claude's own channel
+
+A spawned Claude's input and output are a channel of its own that outlives the
+core (`harness::claude::channel`). Its input is the FIFO it was started on,
+`<app data>/spawned-agents/<session>.input` (0600): the shell holding it open
+keeps it on disk while Claude runs and removes it when Claude ends. Its output
+is `<session>.jsonl` beside it.
+
+- **Native turns.** A message from the verified owner (above) is written as one stream-json `user` line, the text only, never
+  framed. Its `uuid` is `MessageRef::native_uuid` of the message's reference,
+  which Claude Code keeps as the turn's id in its transcript, so the turn's
+  final answer is still found for the automatic reply without a visible
+  attribution. It is written only while Claude is idle: its own
+  `session_state_changed` events (the launch sets
+  `CLAUDE_CODE_EMIT_SESSION_STATE_EVENTS=1`), else the last turn event of its
+  output, say so, and a turn just written counts as running until its output
+  shows it start. A pending permission request also holds turns back. Until
+  then the message stays in Relaycast's queue ("Claude is finishing its
+  current turn"), and the next pass tries again. A turn written counts as
+  started only once Claude echoes that very line (`--replay-user-messages`),
+  so a late event of the turn before cannot let a second one through. Its final answer goes back to
+  the owner as an automatic reply, as a turn's does for any session that
+  cannot reply itself.
+- **Permission prompts.** `--permission-prompt-tool stdio` (in both access
+  modes) sends what would ask to the core as `control_request` lines on the
+  output instead of refusing it: `can_use_tool` (a tool's permission or an
+  `AskUserQuestion`), `elicitation` (an MCP server's form or URL) and
+  `request_user_dialog`. The core reads the output every half second, gives
+  each request a short random reference and a fixed summary, and sends it to
+  the signed-in machine owner after checking their name still resolves to
+  their immutable id. The answer is written back as a `control_response` line on
+  the input. Requests it cannot answer (hooks, SDK MCP servers) are refused at
+  once.
+- **Who may answer.** Only the verified machine owner, matched by immutable
+  id, never the requester or another agent; with no verified owner a request
+  goes unsent and expires denied. Only `approve` or `deny` answer a tool; the allowed tool runs with its input unchanged. A single
+  `AskUserQuestion` with fixed, harmless labels can be answered with
+  `choose <ref> <number>`; free-text questions, forms and dialogs can only be
+  denied (cancelled). Summaries never include the command, path, form or
+  question, since they may hold a credential.
+- **Timeouts and loss.** A request not answered within five minutes is denied
+  (a form or dialog cancelled); with no signed-in, claimed owner that is what
+  every request comes to. An answer or denial stays due until it is written
+  whole: a full pipe is waited on and written again on the next pass, and a
+  line begun is finished rather than left half-written. When Claude ends, its input goes with it and
+  its references are dropped; a later reply finds nothing. A core that starts
+  again reads the output from its start and relays again, under a new
+  reference, any request Claude still waits for (one it has not moved on from
+  with a result or a new `running`/`idle` state). Answering one an earlier core
+  already answered is ignored by Claude.
+- **Older spawns.** A Claude spawned before this channel existed has no FIFO
+  left on disk. It keeps the peer inbox for everyone, and its permission
+  prompts are still refused.
+- **Resuming and ended sessions.** A headless `claude -p` on stream-json input
+  never unloads an idle session the way Codex's daemon unloads an idle thread:
+  it keeps reading its input until that closes, so an idle spawned Claude takes
+  the next native turn as it is, and a core that restarts reopens the same
+  FIFO. A spawned Claude whose process has ended has finished its work and is
+  never started again (`claude --resume` is not used): a message to it is
+  acknowledged without being put anywhere, and a direct message's sender is
+  told "@name's session has ended, so this message was not delivered."
+- **Local trust.** The FIFO is 0600 in the app's data folder, so only the
+  person's own account can write to it, as with Claude's peer socket and
+  `~/.claude`. A process of that account could write turns or answers to it
+  directly; an authenticated keeper process in front of it is not built.
+
+Checked live with Claude Code 2.1.280 on Linux: a `can_use_tool` request for a
+Bash command arrives on the output with `--permission-prompt-tool stdio`, waits
+for an answer written to the FIFO eight seconds later, and the command runs
+with `allow`; without the flag the same command is refused at once. The
+`session_state_changed` events read `running`, `requires_action` and `idle`.
+The flow is covered by fake-harness tests that start a stream-json fake through
+the real launcher and FIFO.
+
+## Reporting back to the requester
+
+A spawned agent's own tools cannot reach the agent that asked for it (Claude's
+`SendMessage` reaches only local teammates), and it may have no Agent Relay
+MCP tools. So its first message says who asked and how to answer them
+(`spawn::report_back`):
+
+```text
+[via Agent Relay — spawned as @w1 (w1@mac-desktop) · from @grokbot · ref 0123456789ab]
+[report: printf '%s' 'your report' | curl -s --unix-socket '<socket>' 'http://relay/send?to=grokbot' --data-binary @-]
+[agents: curl -s --unix-socket '<socket>' http://relay/agents]
+@grokbot asked for this work. When you finish, or if you are blocked, send them your result with the report command. …
+
+<task>
+```
+
+- The requester is the agent Relaycast recorded as the invocation's caller
+  (`caller_name` and `caller_id` on `GET /v1/actions/spawn/invocations/<id>`,
+  read with the workspace key while the agent registers, for at most 3 s),
+  kept with the spawn's intent and its registration (`spawn.requester`). The
+  `action.invoke` frame names no caller, and a name in the spawn's input is
+  never used. Without one, the header has no `from` and the lines say how
+  to message any agent by name.
+  The requester is only told where to report: it stays a peer, with no native
+  turns and no say over approvals (see above).
+- The commands are the session socket's own (`outbound`, see
+  [injectable agents](injectable-agents.md#sending-from-a-session-macos-and-linux)):
+  no token or key is in the message; the socket names the agent by the
+  process that connects. On macOS a spawned Codex, Grok or OpenCode is
+  given the probe's `relay socket-request` instead of curl, as reply hints
+  are. While the socket does not serve, or for an OpenCode without full
+  access (its permissions refuse shell commands), only the header is sent.
+- An agent can run the report command before its spawn has saved its
+  registration (the launch is still being confirmed). While any spawn is
+  starting, the socket waits up to 30 s for the session's registration
+  before refusing it as not on the relay.
+- The header's `ref` is the first message's reference. When the requester
+  is known and the harness's final answer can be read (Claude, Codex), the
+  spawn stores an automatic answer owed to them (`store::Reply`, a DM):
+  once the first turn ends, its final reply is sent to the requester from
+  the agent. Only those harnesses are told so; the others are told the
+  requester receives only what they send. The answer is sent only while the
+  requester's name still belongs to the agent that asked
+  (`GET /v1/agents/<name>`, read with the workspace key, still has the
+  recorded `caller_id` as its `id`):
+  Relaycast names can be taken again, so one now held by another agent
+  drops the answer, and an unreadable check is tried again later. A spawn
+  kept after a restart (`recover`) is owed the same answer. A socket send to
+  the requester by name before then claims it, so they never get both.
+  Turning **Reply with final answer** off for the agent drops it.
+
+## OpenCode
+
+`spawn:opencode` is `probe/src/relay/harness/opencode.rs`. It drives OpenCode
+the way Paseo does, through its HTTP server, and reuses what the managed
+OpenCode route already has rather than a launcher of its own.
+
+**Where it is offered.** The `opencode` command line is looked for in
+`RELAY_DESKTOP_OPENCODE` (exactly that file), `~/.opencode/bin`,
+`~/.local/bin`, `~/.bun/bin`, `/opt/homebrew/bin`, `/usr/local/bin` and then
+`PATH`. Its version comes from `opencode --version`, asked once per installed
+file (a new install or an update is asked again). Only OpenCode 1 is offered:
+the managed route speaks OpenCode 1's server, OpenCode 2 changed that server
+(Paseo keeps a second adapter for it), and versions before 1.0 lack parts of
+it. Otherwise the node does not advertise `spawn:opencode`, and a spawn is
+refused with `spawn_harness_unavailable` and one of these reasons:
+
+- "OpenCode here did not report its version (opencode --version), …" when
+  `--version` fails or prints no version, such as an npm install whose
+  postinstall script never ran;
+- "OpenCode 0.x.y is too old to spawn: …";
+- "OpenCode 2.x.y cannot be spawned yet: …".
+
+**Launch.**
+
+1. `opencode serve --hostname 127.0.0.1 --port <free port>` starts in the
+   spawn's folder, in a process session of its own (and in a transient
+   systemd scope on Linux), with fresh random Basic credentials and a marker
+   in its environment only. This is the start probe-managed OpenCode
+   sessions use (`relay/opencode_serve.rs`), with output to
+   `<app data>/spawned-agents/<spawn id>.log`. Its pid and start time go to
+   `<spawn id>.server.json` at once, so a restart before step 3 ends it.
+   The server also loads Agent Relay's OpenCode plugin (see
+   [Replies](#opencode-replies)) through its own `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT`.
+2. Once the exact process owns the listener, its credentials prove and it
+   answers `GET /session/status`, `POST /session` creates the session with
+   the spawn's permission rules. That request is sent once per server: one
+   whose answer is lost may still have made a session, so the spawn fails
+   rather than send it again. An OpenCode that does not keep the rules is
+   refused and ended. A server started again on a fresh port (it lost the
+   port race) gets a session of its own. The session is read back like a
+   managed one (`opencode_existing::inspect_session`).
+3. The binding (pid, start, port, credential reference, session, project) is
+   sealed in the managed-session registry, marked as spawned
+   (`ManagedSessions::adopt`), and the spawn records the session and server.
+4. The first message is delivered as any later one is: `prompt_async` under
+   a deterministic message id, journalled. A session not ready yet (busy, or
+   not answering its status) is asked again for up to 30 seconds, as a later
+   message would wait. Seen in the session: confirmed; sent but not seen in
+   time: `spawn_task_unconfirmed` (`in_doubt`), never sent again; refused, or
+   never ready: the spawn fails and the server is ended.
+
+**Later messages** take the managed OpenCode route
+(`LocalInjector::inject_managed`): the binding is proved again (the same
+process, listener, credentials from the process's environment, the session's
+identity) before each one, a busy session makes the message wait, and the
+journal keeps a delivery to at most once. A spawned binding is routed whatever
+`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_MANAGED_OPENCODE` says, is never a picker row, and cannot
+be taken over by a managed launch.
+
+**Permissions.** Nobody answers a spawned agent's prompt, so the session's
+permission rules never ask. OpenCode applies the last matching rule, and a
+session's rules after the person's configuration, so these decide:
+
+- Full access (on by default): `*` is allowed.
+- Off: `*` is refused; `read`, `edit`, `glob`, `grep`, `list`, `todoread`
+  and `todowrite` are allowed. Files outside the folder
+  (`external_directory`), shell commands, web access, subagents, skills and
+  MCP tools are refused, and so are `.env` files (other than
+  `.env.example`), which OpenCode itself would ask about.
+- In both, the question tool is refused: it waits for the person.
+
+**Watching it.** Alive while the server's exact process (pid and start time)
+runs. `GET /session/status` says busy or retrying (working) or idle. Once the
+server is gone, OpenCode's database says whether the session's last message
+left a turn unfinished: a user message, or an assistant one not completed or
+about to run its tools.
+
+**Release** ends the server (SIGTERM to the exact process) and removes the
+binding. Each spawned agent has a server of its own, so nothing else is
+ended.
+
+**Across restarts.** The server outlives the core (its own process session,
+and a scope on Linux). The core finds the agent again by the session and
+server the spawn recorded, and delivery re-proves the server from the
+registry. Two windows cannot be recovered:
+
+- A restart after the server started but before the session existed: the
+  server is ended (its pending record) and the spawn reported ended.
+- A restart after the session was recorded but before the first message was
+  sent: the agent is kept, idle, without its task, as with Codex. The intent
+  does not keep the task's text, so it is not sent again.
+
+<a id="opencode-replies"></a>**Replies.** A spawned OpenCode's shell
+commands answer on the relay-send socket as its session, through the managed
+route's proof (`opencode::managed::caller`): the shell's session tag
+(`AGENT_RELAY_OPENCODE_SESSION`) only selects the binding; the exact server
+process, its marker and sealed credential reference, its executable, and an
+attestation the plugin writes for that process
+(`<runtime>/<pid>.managed.json`, holding the marker's hash) prove it.
+OpenCode subagents share the server, so the server's ancestry alone never
+names a caller.
+
+The tag and the attestation come from Agent Relay's OpenCode plugin, so every
+spawned server loads it (`relay/opencode/managed/spawned.rs`), whether or not the
+person installed it in OpenCode's global `plugins/`:
+
+- This build's plugin is written to
+  `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/opencode/plugin/agent-relay-spawn.js` (folders
+  `0700`, file `0600`, only rewritten when it differs). Its default export is
+  also callable, since older OpenCode 1 loaders call every export with the
+  plugin's input; it is otherwise the global plugin, at the same version. It
+  is named in the
+  server's `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT` as a `file://` plugin. OpenCode merges
+  that inline configuration over the person's global and project
+  configuration and appends its `plugin` list to theirs, so their own
+  configuration, plugins and MCP servers still load. Nothing is written to
+  `~/.config/opencode`.
+- An `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT` the person already set is kept, with the
+  plugin appended to its `plugin` list. One that is not a JSON object is left
+  as it is and the server starts without the plugin; that agent replies
+  through MCP only.
+- When OpenCode's global `plugins/agent-relay.js` (under the server's own
+  `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`) is already this build's plugin, it is not added again.
+  Any other copy that loads too still runs once per process: the first copy
+  claims it (`claimInstance` in `agent-relay.js`). The file name is distinct
+  so OpenCode, which keeps one plugin per file name, never drops a person's
+  file for it.
+- In a server Agent Relay started (`AGENT_RELAY_MANAGED_SESSION_MARKER` set)
+  the plugin only tags shells and writes the attestation; it opens no
+  discovery or delivery socket. Turning the OpenCode plugin off in Settings
+  removes the global copy only; spawned servers still load theirs.
+
+## Harness adapters
+
+Each harness is one adapter module in `probe/src/relay/harness/` behind the
+`HarnessAdapter` trait (`probe/src/relay/harness.rs`), listed once in
+`BUILTINS`. An adapter answers:
+
+- its **descriptor**: a stable id (`codex`, `claude`, `grok`) that is the `spawn:<id>`
+  capability and the settings key, a label, its full-access wording and
+  default, and whether billing may be stated;
+- **detect**: installed, not installed, or installed but unusable with a
+  reason (`CODEX_NO_DAEMON`);
+- an optional **spawn facet** (`SpawnFacet`): launch, find (a spawn a restart
+  interrupted), alive, stop and observe, for the sessions it owns, and, for a
+  harness whose spawned agents take messages by a route of their own (Grok),
+  deliver. Delivery asks the spawner first for a registration with a `spawn`
+  origin (`Spawner::deliver_registered`); every other agent, and a spawned one
+  whose facet has no route of its own, goes through the session's usual route.
+  optionally `handover()` for joining and taking its agents over (see
+  [Joining and taking over](#joining-and-taking-over-a-spawned-agent)).
+
+The spawn module stays unaware of harnesses: `RegistrySpawner` implements its
+`Spawner` seam and `RegistryObserver` its `Observe` seam by asking the adapter
+of the harness, or of the session, at hand. A harness id is an open string
+checked against the registry, so `spawn:<id>` for an id this computer does not
+know is refused with `spawn_harness_unsupported`, as before.
+
+The core publishes every descriptor in `SpawnStatus.harness_descriptors`, and
+both apps draw the per-harness full-access rows, their labels and wording from
+it. Per-harness settings are `spawn_harnesses: {<id>: {full_access, billing}}`
+in `settings.get` and `settings.set`; Codex and Claude keep their flat keys
+(`spawn_full_access_codex`, `spawn_billing_claude`, …) and their store fields
+as well, so older apps, agents and cores read them as before.
+
+Adding a harness is one adapter module, one line in `BUILTINS` and its tests;
+no shared `match` names harnesses.
+
+## Grok CLI
+
+`spawn:grok` drives xAI's Grok CLI (Grok Build) through a Grok leader and ACP,
+the interface Paseo and Grok's IDE clients use (`grok agent stdio`), reusing
+the probe's managed Grok route (`existing_session::grok`, `managed_sessions`)
+rather than a terminal. Adapter: `probe/src/relay/harness/grok.rs`.
+
+- **Where it is offered.** Grok is found where it installs itself,
+  `~/.grok/bin/grok` (`$GROK_HOME/bin/grok`), else on `PATH`. Its version is
+  read from the file Grok's installer names (`~/.grok/bin/grok` links to
+  `~/.grok/downloads/grok-<version>-<platform>`), never by running it. Grok
+  1.0.46, the first version Agent Relay's Grok route was proven against, or
+  later is offered. An older Grok is not advertised, and a spawn there is
+  refused with `spawn_harness_unavailable: Grok here is version 1.0.24, older
+  than 1.0.46, the first that spawned Grok agents run on. Update it with
+  `grok update`, then try again.` A Grok whose file name carries no version
+  is offered; a launch it cannot do fails with the reason.
+- **Launch.** Each spawned Grok gets a leader of its own:
+  `grok agent leader --no-exit-on-disconnect --no-auto-update
+  --relay-on-demand --leader-socket <socket>`, in the agent's folder, with the
+  agents' environment and a random marker
+  (`AGENT_RELAY_MANAGED_SESSION_MARKER`) that only that leader's environment
+  holds. It keeps running with no client attached, does not replace itself
+  with an update while it hosts the agent (a new leader would be a new
+  process, and read as the agent's end), and does not connect to grok.com's
+  relay. Its socket is `/tmp/agent-relay-managed-<uid>/grok-<id>.sock`, in
+  the private (0700) folder the managed Grok route also uses, under `/tmp`
+  because Grok's `workspace` sandbox still lets the leader write there. Once
+  it listens, a short-lived `grok agent --always-approve
+  --leader --leader-socket <socket> stdio` client sends `initialize` and
+  `session/new` (`cwd`, `mcpServers: []`, `_meta.yoloMode: true`). The leader
+  is then proven as delivery proves it (pid and start time, executable, argv,
+  socket inode and peer, and the marker), and the session is recorded in
+  `<app data>/spawned-agents/grok/<session id>.json` (0600, in a 0700 folder;
+  the marker itself is never written, only a digest bound to it). Only then
+  is the task sent, as one `session/prompt`. It counts as handed over once
+  the leader's queue holds it in the session; a prompt Grok never showed is
+  `spawn_task_unconfirmed` (`in_doubt`), and a refused one fails the spawn
+  and ends the leader. The client then goes; the turn runs on in the leader.
+- **Later messages.** Through the managed Grok route's ACP transport and
+  journal (`<app data>/spawned-agents/grok/journal`): the leader is proven
+  again, the session loaded and the message sent as one prompt. A confirmed
+  receipt is never sent again, and a send that may have reached Grok stays in
+  doubt. A leader that ended, or another process with its pid, takes nothing.
+- **Full access.** On (the default): Grok's always-approve mode and no
+  sandbox; the leader starts without `GROK_SANDBOX`, so Grok's own
+  `[sandbox]` setting, normally off, applies. Off: still always-approve, as
+  nobody could answer a prompt, but the leader runs in Grok's `workspace`
+  sandbox (`GROK_SANDBOX=workspace`), which Grok enforces in the kernel
+  (Seatbelt on macOS, Landlock on Linux): it reads anywhere and writes only
+  in its folder, `~/.grok` and temporary folders, as Codex's
+  `workspace-write`. Grok runs on without the sandbox where the kernel cannot
+  apply it (Linux before 5.13), and where an organisation locks
+  always-approve off (`disable_bypass_permissions_mode` in
+  `requirements.toml`) a spawned Grok waits on the first tool that would ask.
+- **Watching it.** Its leader by pid and start time, and the turn events Grok
+  appends to the session's `events.jsonl`
+  (`<grok home>/sessions/<folder>/<session id>/`): `turn_ended` last is idle,
+  a permission asked and not yet answered is waiting, any other turn event is
+  working. A leader that ended is the agent's end: completed when its last
+  turn had ended, unknown when one was running.
+- **Restarts.** The spawn's intent records the leader as soon as it starts,
+  under the spawn's own session id, then the Grok session once it exists. A
+  restart after that finds the agent by its record and keeps it; a restart in
+  between ends the leader, which nothing could reach.
+- **Release.** `SIGTERM` to the leader, only while it is still the process
+  the record names; a second release does nothing more.
+- **Replies.** A spawned Grok's tools can answer on the relay-send socket.
+  Its session claim is accepted only under the exact recorded leader, proved
+  through the kernel's process, executable, socket and private launch marker.
+  Replies use the probe client where the OS hides a shell's environment; an
+  inherited Codex tag never overrides the nearer Grok leader.
+- **Limits.** A Grok whose own configuration sets a sandbox
+  profile refuses leader mode for every client, so that profile must be off.
+  The behaviour above (ACP `yoloMode`, the `workspace` sandbox for a leader,
+  `events.jsonl`) is Grok 1.0.46's, as its documentation and session files
+  show it; this spawn path was tested with fakes only, not against a live
+  Grok.
+
+## Joining and taking over a spawned agent
+
+Opening a spawned agent in either app never starts a second process on its
+session.
+
+**Join.** A spawned agent's session opens in the app's transcript view, with
+**Join** in its details on the agents page. While Agent Relay runs it, the
+transcript is followed live (read again every 3 s for what was written since)
+and a message box under it sends into the running agent through the relay
+(`messages.send` to its address), the way any message to it is delivered.
+
+- A spawned Claude's transcript is its own stream-json output
+  (`agents.transcript`, read from `<app data>/spawned-agents/<session>.jsonl`
+  by byte offset; `follow_cursor` is where the next read starts). It runs with
+  `--replay-user-messages`, so what it is asked is in that output too.
+- A spawned Codex thread's transcript is its session's (`sessions.transcript`).
+  A read from a cursor that reaches the end of what the reader's cache holds
+  refreshes the cache from the session's file and reads again, so following
+  keeps showing new output however many pages the transcript spans.
+
+**Take over (Claude).** **Take over in Terminal**, or **Take over in Claude**
+on a Mac where Claude Desktop is preferred and installed, hands the session to
+the person (`agents.take_over`):
+
+1. The app asks first. Mid-turn it offers **Take Over After This Turn**: the
+   core waits (up to 10 minutes) for the turn to end, and **Interrupt Now**,
+   confirmed, stops it at once.
+2. The core marks the agent taken over (`spawn.takenOverAt`), stops the
+   headless process and waits until it is gone. If it does not stop, nothing
+   is handed over.
+3. The app then runs `claude --resume <id>` in the session's folder
+   (`claude --desktop --resume` for Claude Desktop). `--resume` continues the
+   session under the same id.
+
+The agent keeps its name, address and place on the spawn node. Its process
+is then whichever one Claude Code's registry lists for the session: each
+observation pass follows the session to the client the person resumed it in,
+so delivery reaches it. While nothing runs it (the client is still opening)
+the agent shows as unknown, not ended, for 2 minutes. Releasing the agent
+leaves the person's client running. `sessions.list` reports all this on the
+registration as `spawn: {harness, can_take_over, taken_over}`; once taken
+over, the session opens like any other.
+
+**Codex.** A spawned Codex thread lives in the shared app server, so
+**Open in Codex** (`codex://threads/<id>`) shows it live in the Codex app.
+Terminal resume is never offered for it while Agent Relay hosts it, whatever
+the opening preference; without the Codex app, the button says to install it.
+A spawned Codex cannot be taken over (`agents.take_over` refuses).
+
+**Others.** A spawned agent with no app to open it live and no take over
+(Grok, OpenCode, Muse, Devin) has no open action while Agent Relay runs it:
+it is joined only, never resumed in Terminal beside the process that runs it,
+and the sidebar says so ("Agent Relay runs this session. Follow it and message
+it here; it is not resumed in Terminal while Agent Relay runs it.").
+
+Adapters opt in through the spawn facet's `handover()` (`HandoverFacet`:
+`transcript` and `session`); without one, an agent's sessions open live in
+its own app where it has one, and are otherwise only joined.
+
+## Permissions
+
+A headless Codex or Claude agent can ask remotely during a turn. **Codex: full access** and
+**Claude: skip permission prompts**, on by default as with the broker, run
+spawned agents with `sandbox: danger-full-access` and
+`--dangerously-skip-permissions`. Turned off, Codex runs in its
+`workspace-write` sandbox and Claude with `--permission-mode acceptEdits`;
+Codex uses `approvalPolicy: on-request`, and Claude sends what would ask over
+its own channel ([above](#claudes-own-channel)); with full access on, Claude
+skips its permission prompts, and whatever still asks comes the same way. **OpenCode: full access** is the
+same choice for OpenCode; see [OpenCode](#opencode) for its permission rules.
+**Grok: full access**, also on by
+default, runs Grok always-approving and without a sandbox; turned off, Grok
+still never asks but runs in its `workspace` sandbox ([Grok CLI](#grok-cli)).
+
+## The person's own MCP servers and credentials
+
+For now a spawned agent gets the person's own MCP servers and connectors, and
+with them whatever credentials their configuration carries, as the broker's
+workers in `../relay` do:
+
+- Claude is started without `--strict-mcp-config`, so it loads the person's
+  user-level and project servers and their claude.ai connectors.
+- Codex runs its thread on the person's own app-server with their own
+  configuration, so the thread gets the same MCP servers as their own Codex
+  sessions.
+- OpenCode's server loads the person's global and project `opencode.json`,
+  MCP servers included; only the session's permission rules are the spawn's.
+- Grok's session is opened with no servers of Agent Relay's own
+  (`mcpServers: []`), so Grok loads the ones the person configured
+  (`grok mcp`, their config and trusted plugins), as for their own sessions.
+
+Keeping spawned agents from those servers was investigated first and is not
+used. Claude can be isolated with `--strict-mcp-config`. Codex cannot yet be
+shown to stay away from them. Tested on Codex 0.159 with a real
+`codex app-server`, an isolated `CODEX_HOME` and a dummy MCP server that
+records requests (synthetic bearer headers only):
+
+- `mcpServerStatus/list` without a thread connects to every configured server
+  with its headers (3 requests), so it cannot be used to learn their names.
+- `config/read` connects to nothing but returns the headers' values, and omits
+  servers from the project's own `.codex/config.toml`.
+- Turning the named servers off per thread (`thread/start` `config:
+  {mcp_servers: {<name>: {enabled: false}}}`) works for those names, but a
+  project-layer server still connects at thread start (6 requests), even with
+  an isolated home that trusts no project.
+
+The per-thread isolation and its pre-turn check (`app_server::start_thread`
+with `McpIsolation`) stay in the code, tested but unused, for when spawned
+agents should be isolated again.
+
+## Working-folder access and Bun startup errors on macOS
+
+Before registering or launching an agent, the core checks that its working
+folder exists and can be read, including the first directory entry. Merely
+checking `is_dir()` is insufficient: macOS privacy controls and Unix directory
+permissions can allow metadata access while refusing directory reads. The check
+runs on a blocking worker, with a ten-second response deadline, so an unavailable
+drive or a stalled macOS privacy approval does not block the node's async runtime.
+A timed-out worker may finish later, but cannot register or launch anything.
+At most four checks can occupy blocking workers, and a timed-out check keeps
+its slot until its filesystem call finishes; retries cannot fill the pool.
+
+An access denial returns `spawn_invalid_input` with the working folder and the
+OS error. On macOS it directs the person to **System Settings → Privacy & Security
+→ Files and Folders** to allow Agent Relay access; on Linux it asks for read and
+search permission for the account running Agent Relay. This is shared core
+behavior in both desktop apps. No privacy grants are changed by the core.
+
+Evidence from the October 17, 2026 installed macOS test build (v2026.10.47 plus
+#534 and #499):
+
+- Failed Claude session `db8db644-2551-466d-b751-f8593bf73cd3` recorded only Bun's
+  `Unexpected` error and a current descriptor limit of 256. Its saved process
+  identity was PID 85938; Grok's was PID 86048.
+- The macOS kernel log at 15:16:06–11 UTC recorded approval-watchdog expirations
+  for `kTCCServiceSystemPolicyRemovableVolumes` for those exact child PIDs. Core
+  PID 84374 and collector PID 61692 also had repeated expirations. This is evidence
+  of external-volume privacy approval failing, not a successful descriptor-quota
+  diagnosis. The OpenCode log was empty, so it supplies no independent error detail.
+- Read-only `lsof` inspection of the core found about 38 open descriptors, with
+  the highest observed descriptor 54. The native-spawn branch's Claude shell/FIFO
+  sequence and `setsid` setup were unchanged on main.
+- Controlled launches of Claude 2.1.301, OpenCode 1.18.30 and Grok 1.0.46 succeeded
+  with soft `RLIMIT_NOFILE=256`, a minimal launchd-style environment and a new
+  process session. OpenCode's server and Grok's leader remained running until the
+  test stopped them. Those checks did not use or restart the installed core.
+- Denying `file-read*` for a scratch working folder with macOS `sandbox-exec`
+  reproduced the exact Bun message in both Claude and OpenCode. Raising only the
+  soft limit to 61,440 (this Mac's `kern.maxfilesperproc`) still exited with status
+  1; it changed the text to generic `Unexpected` rather than fixing startup.
+
+Bun's [upstream report on this diagnostic](https://github.com/oven-sh/bun/issues/40625)
+explains the heuristic: some generic startup errors mention descriptor limits
+without establishing descriptor exhaustion. Do not diagnose this message by its
+limit number alone. Correlate the saved child PID and launch time with macOS
+privacy logs, and compare an allowed working folder with the failing one.
+Increasing `RLIMIT_NOFILE` does not grant folder access. Successful launches from
+the installed app still require its macOS privacy approval to work; a terminal's
+access does not establish that a launchd job has access.
+
+## Lifetime
+
+Spawned agents outlive the core, so updating or restarting it leaves them
+running; the core finds them again from its store (pid and start time for
+Claude and for Grok's leader, the thread for Codex) and lists them in its next
+inventory.
+
+- Codex threads live in Codex's own app-server daemon.
+- A spawned Claude, and a spawned OpenCode's server or Grok's leader, run in a process
+  session of their own, out of the core's launchd process group on macOS.
+- On Linux under a systemd user manager everything the core starts would be
+  in `agent-relay.service`'s cgroup, which a restart ends however it was
+  detached. So a spawned Claude, a spawned OpenCode's server or Grok's leader, and a Codex
+  daemon the core has to start, each run in a transient scope (`systemd-run --user --scope`,
+  `agent-relay-spawn-<id>.scope`) outside it. Where no user manager runs, or
+  it refuses the scope, they start as before.
+
+A spawn in flight when the core stops is not lost. Registering the agent and
+launching it take up to about half a minute before the registration is
+stored, so each spawn first writes its intent to
+`<app data>/spawn-intents.json` (0600: it holds the agent's token) and adds
+to it as it learns: the agent id and token once Relaycast registered it, the
+Claude session id chosen before launch, the Codex first-turn message id
+(`spawn-<invocation>`), and the session and process as soon as the launch
+starts them. The intent is dropped once the registration is stored or the
+spawn has cleaned up after a failure. When the node connects, before its
+first inventory, the core settles every intent left by a core that stopped:
+
+- Never registered on Relaycast: nothing was launched; the intent is dropped.
+- `agent.register` sent but never answered (the answer late or unreadable,
+  or the spawn cancelled): Relaycast is asked for the agent by name
+  (`GET /v1/agents/{name}`), and one stamped with the same invocation
+  (`metadata.fleet.invocation_id`) is taken off the node (`agent.deregister`)
+  as below. When Relaycast first holds none, it is asked once more after
+  30 s, as a write it admitted can land after the connection closed. Any
+  other agent of that name is left alone and the intent dropped; if Relaycast cannot be asked, the next connection asks again.
+  Registering again cannot find it: Relaycast refuses a name already taken.
+  A spawn whose register is not answered within 10 s keeps waiting up to
+  30 s more, as Relaycast's node answers late under database pressure: an
+  answer in that time launches the agent as usual, and a late `d1_pressure`
+  refusal is sent again like one in time. A connection that closes ends its
+  waits at once. A spawn that stops waiting while the core runs does the
+  same as recovery once it has given its place back, after waiting 30 s
+  more for the answer; recovery
+  leaves the attempt to it meanwhile, and an agent found after the intent
+  went is recorded again, ended, and still taken off. One whose
+  invocation started again meanwhile is left to that retry: the retry's own
+  intent, and an agent it saved, are never changed or taken off. A retry of
+  the invocation whose register is refused because that agent holds the name
+  takes it off the node and registers again, once.
+- The agent is found still running (Claude by the process it started or the
+  session it published; Codex by its thread, which the launch records as
+  soon as Codex creates it, else by the first turn's message id among the
+  threads created since the spawn began): it is kept, stored as the spawn
+  would have stored it, on the node's connection like any spawned agent, and
+  listed in the inventory. Activity: "Agent Relay kept @name, which it
+  spawned before it restarted."
+- Otherwise, or with spawns now off: whatever was found running is stopped
+  (Claude's process ended, Codex's thread archived) and the agent is taken
+  off the node (`agent.deregister`). Activity: "Agent Relay ended @name: it
+  restarted while spawning it." The intent stays, marked ended, until
+  Relaycast confirms the deregistration, so one lost with the connection or
+  refused is sent again on the next; the agent is not stopped or reported
+  twice.
+
+Only a Codex thread created in the instant between Codex answering
+`thread/start` and the core recording it, with no first turn yet, cannot be
+found; it stays loaded, idle, until archived in Codex.
+
+Draining or blue-green updates, and handing a running agent's ownership to a
+new core, are not designed yet.
+
+## Not yet
+
+- Visible launch modes (the Codex app, a terminal window) and a per-harness
+  choice between them.
+
+
+## Optional spawn capacity
+
+Desktop spawns have no agent-count limit by default. In Settings, **Max spawned
+agents** is an optional cap (1–32); leave it empty for **No limit**. The old
+default of 12 existed only when the stored setting was absent. Absent settings
+now mean unlimited, while explicitly stored values—including 12—are preserved.
+`settings.set` with `spawn_max_agents: 0` clears a cap. Save with **Save** or Enter; leaving the field or refreshing Settings does not apply an unfinished edit. Failed saves show the error and restore the confirmed cap.
+
+The wire and node read API retain Relaycast's documented `max_agents: 0`
+unlimited sentinel. Null is not accepted by existing Relaycast schemas, integer
+storage, or SDKs, so this change does not introduce a nullable wire field or a
+migration. Finite integers still enforce the cap atomically against active plus
+reserved agents. Unlimited nodes still count active and reserved agents, but
+never refuse a spawn because of those counts. Other admission checks still apply.
+Live metadata reports `slots.free: null` for unlimited, and Cloud returns
+`available_slots: null`. Slot utilization is unknown without a finite cap;
+desktop reports `load: null, load_reported: false` and continues advertising
+machine resource measurements. Placement uses measured load, not an invented
+infinite number of free slots.
+
+Ship Relaycast's measured-load support first, Cloud's placement changes second,
+and the desktop default last. Existing integer-cap nodes work throughout;
+no database migration is needed.

+# Spawn node advertisements and agent lifecycle
+
+Status: design and v1 implementation for the desktop's spawn node
+(`probe/src/relay/spawn`). Builds on [native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md).
+
+The hosted gateway can refuse control work with `d1_pressure` before admitting
+any mutation. The desktop follows the broker's bounded retry policy: the exact
+same registration frame and request id, up to five retries over 25 seconds,
+with delays of 1, 2, 4, 8 and 8 seconds. An uncertain timeout or disconnect is
+never retried as a registration. One-way action results carry correlation ids
+and retry only after explicit pressure; a rejected result survives socket
+reconnection so a successful worker is not left permanently dispatched.
+
+## Plan
+
+### What the node advertises
+
+Two kinds of facts, kept apart on the wire:
+
+| | Configured | Live |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| What | Harnesses, billing mode per harness, full access per harness, repositories, maximum agents, whether teammates may spawn here, and what the node is (`node_kind` `desktop`, `machine`) | Slots (max, held, reserved, free, by work state), resources (CPUs, 1-minute load average, total and available memory), per-agent lifecycle, slots reclaimed with unfinished work |
+| Set by | The person in Settings, or an agent through `settings.set` | Measured by the node |
+| Changes | Rarely; stable between edits | Every heartbeat (12 s), stamped `observed_at` |
+| Where | `node.register` and every `node.heartbeat`: top-level `max_agents`; `repo_keys` (register only, Relaycast turns them into `repo:<owner/name>` tags); `metadata.configured` on each `spawn:<harness>` capability | Every `node.heartbeat`: `active_agents`, `load` with `load_reported: true` for finite caps (unknown for unlimited); `metadata.live` on each `spawn:<harness>` capability (node-wide slots and resources) and on `release` (the agents it can release, and slots reclaimed) |
+
+Relaycast's heartbeat and inventory frames are strict schemas, so capability
+`metadata` (free JSON, replaced on every heartbeat and returned by the node
+roster) is the only place for anything beyond `active_agents`, `load` and
+`max_agents`. Tags and `repo_keys` only change at `node.register`, so a change
+of repositories reconnects the node; a change of maximum agents or billing goes
+out on the next heartbeat.
+
+Configured settings (store keys, `settings.get`/`settings.set`):
+`spawn_max_agents` (0 means no limit, the default; optional cap 1–32), billing per harness
+(`spawn_harnesses.<id>.billing`, and for Codex and Claude also
+`spawn_billing_codex` and `spawn_billing_claude`: `subscription`, `api` or
+`unspecified`, default `unspecified`), `spawn_repositories` (owner/name keys,
+default none), `spawn_allow_teammates` (default false).
+
+
+Each `spawn:<harness>` capability's `metadata.configured`:
+
+| Field | Value |
+| --- | --- |
+| `harness` | The harness id, such as `codex` or `claude` |
+| `billing` | `subscription`, `api` or `unspecified` |
+| `full_access` | The harness's full-access setting |
+| `max_agents` | `spawn_max_agents` |
+| `repositories` | `spawn_repositories` |
+| `node_kind` | Always `desktop`: a person's computer, not a cloud or broker node |
+| `machine` | This computer's name as agent metadata shows it (`host`: the host name without `.local`) |
+| `teammates` | `spawn_allow_teammates`: workspace owners and admins may spawn here, not only the node's owner. Cloud enforces it |
+
+### Owner claim
+
+Cloud reads a node's owner from its own records, which the desktop fills by
+claiming its node for the signed-in person (`POST /fleet/nodes/claim` with the
+node token and the person's Cloud session, once Cloud confirmed the session
+is that person's) before the node registers, after a sign-in, and every
+minute after, backing off after failures; the claim never holds spawning up. A node another account owns advertises no
+`spawn:<harness>` capability and refuses spawns until a claim succeeds; the
+status says "This computer's spawn node belongs to another account." Without a
+sign-in nothing is asked. Turning spawning off keeps the claim. Details:
+[native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md#whose-computer-it-is).
+
+### Placement stays with the requester
+
+The requesting agent reads the roster (`capabilities[].metadata`, `live`,
+`last_heartbeat_at`, `max_agents`, `active_agents`) and names the exact node.
+The node never queues, waits for a slot or reroutes. It validates and reserves
+atomically, then answers with one of:
+
+| Outcome | When |
+| --- | --- |
+| `spawned: true` | A slot was reserved, the agent registered and launched |
+| `spawn_capacity_exceeded` | Every slot is held (retained idle agents included), and the last advertisement already said so |
+| `capacity_changed` | The last heartbeat advertised free slots, but they were taken (or the maximum lowered) since: re-read the roster |
+| `spawn_harness_unavailable` | The harness is not installed here (`retryable: false`) |
+| `spawn_target_unavailable` | The core is stopping as the invoke arrives |
+| `spawn_target_offline` | Never sent by the node, which answers only while connected; Relaycast/Cloud use it for a target that is not live |
+| `spawn_disabled`, `spawn_agent_name_in_use`, `spawn_invalid_input`, `spawn_failed` | Plain `error` strings, as in v1 |
+
+With the gate below open, the five agreed codes go out as `{"error": "<code>",
+"error_details": {code, message, node, harness, active, reserved, max,
+observed_at, retryable}}`, with unknown counts omitted. Every failure ends that
+attempt: no queue, no hidden retry, no reroute; the caller keeps the task.
+
+**The `error_details` gate.** Relaycast's strict `action.result` schema rejects
+the extra field today, so the gate is set per connection. The node advertises
+`{name: "relay:spawn-error-details-v1", kind: "capacity"}` at `node.register`.
+It sends details only when the register reply's data carries the
+server-authored `spawn_error_details_contract: "relay:spawn-error-details-v1"`.
+`accepted_capabilities` can't serve as the gate, because Relaycast accepts
+every name. In every other case only the plain code goes out as `error`. A
+reconnect learns the gate again (`wire::error_details_agreed`,
+`NodeLink.error_details`).
+
+Relaycast itself reserves capacity for a targeted spawn from the last
+heartbeat's `active_agents` and `max_agents` (503 `handler_unavailable` at
+capacity); the node's own check is the authoritative one, because only the node
+knows about spawns in flight and slots that just changed.
+
+### Lifecycle: three independent pieces of evidence
+
+Each spawned agent carries three timestamped observations. Each reads as
+`unknown` once older than its time to live, never as its last value.
+
+| Evidence | States | Source | Observed | Stale after |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Node reachability (machine ↔ Agent Relay) | `reachable`, `unreachable`, `unknown` | The node socket: last heartbeat written; the time it dropped | Every heartbeat | 45 s (Relaycast's own liveness window) |
+| Process liveness | `running`, `exited`, `unknown` | Claude: its pid and start time. Codex: archived thread (exited), loaded in Codex's app-server (running), daemon answered without it or no Codex runs (exited), empty or failed answer (unknown) | Every 15 s | 60 s |
+| Harness work state | `working`, `idle`, `waiting`, `completed`, `unknown` | Codex rollout: a turn started and not completed is `working`. Claude: registry `status` (`busy`, `idle`, `waiting`) else its stream-json log (last event `result` is idle, anything after it is working); an exit right after a `result` is `completed`. A Codex thread archived is `completed` | Every 15 s | 60 s |
+
+Transitions:
+
+```text
+spawn ─▶ reserved ─▶ (registered + launched) ─▶ held: running/working
+held: working ⇄ idle ⇄ waiting                 (harness evidence; slot kept)
+held: any ─▶ unknown                            (evidence older than its TTL; slot kept)
+held: running ─▶ exited (+ completed?)          (positive evidence only) ─▶ reclaimed
+reclaimed ─▶ held                               (the session came back: Codex thread reloaded)
+any ─▶ released                                 (explicit release: process stopped, registration removed)
+Codex thread archived ─▶ completed              (existing archive path removes the registration)
+```
+
+### Slot accounting
+
+- A slot is held from reservation until explicit release, or until the
+  process is positively seen `exited` (crash, clean completion, or a Codex
+  thread no longer loaded anywhere). `idle`, `waiting` and `unknown` keep it.
+- `held` = spawned registrations that are not archived and not observed
+  `exited`; `reserved` = spawns between the capacity check and the saved
+  registration. A spawn is admitted when `max == 0` (no limit), or while
+  `held + reserved < max` for an explicit cap.
+- A reclaimed agent keeps its registration (missing, so it drops out of
+  `inventory.sync` and Relaycast marks it offline with `agent.exited
+  missing_from_inventory`) until it is released: its name stays taken and its
+  unfinished work stays visible.
+- Lowering a finite maximum below what is held stops nothing: new spawns are
+  refused until enough are released.
+
+### Restart reconciliation
+
+The ledger is in memory. Spawns that were starting when the core stopped
+are kept on disk instead and settled when the node connects, before its
+first inventory: an agent still running is kept, anything else is stopped
+and taken off the node ([native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md#lifetime)). After
+the core restarts, the first activation pass
+observes every spawned registration at once against the real harness sessions
+(processes, Codex's daemon, rollouts and Claude logs) before anything is
+reclaimed. Agents still running keep their slot; genuinely dead ones are
+reclaimed with what they left unfinished: a turn in progress when they died
+(Codex rollout turn without `task_complete`, Claude log without a final
+`result`) and deliveries not yet acknowledged (their Relaycast queue). That is
+reported in the activity log, in the agent's row and in `release` capability
+metadata (`live.reclaimed`, the last 8). The node pushes `inventory.sync` and a
+heartbeat at once when slots change, rather than waiting for the 60 s cycle.
+
+### Removal
+
+Only by explicit `release` (Relaycast `action.invoke release`, or removing the
+agent in the app), or completion through the existing archive path (Codex
+thread archived). A safe idle policy is defined but not turned on: release an
+agent idle for longer than a set time only when its process is `running`, its
+work `idle` (not `unknown`), no turn is running, no delivery is in flight on
+its line and its Relaycast queue is empty.
+
+### Where it lives
+
+| Piece | File |
+| --- | --- |
+| Lifecycle rules (evidence, staleness, slots, admission, harness state readers) | `probe/src/relay/spawn/lifecycle.rs` |
+| Harness observation (`Observe`, `RegistryObserver`) | `probe/src/relay/spawn/observe.rs`, each harness's adapter in `probe/src/relay/harness/` |
+| Resource sampling | `probe/src/relay/spawn/resources.rs` |
+| Per-core ledger (reservations, evidence, heartbeat time, reclaimed) and wiring | `probe/src/relay/spawn.rs`, `spawn/ledger.rs`, `spawn/reconcile.rs` |
+| Spawns in flight on disk; settling them and carrying agents over to a new node id | `probe/src/relay/spawn/intents.rs`, `spawn/recover.rs`, each adapter's `SpawnFacet::find` |
+| Frames and metadata | `probe/src/relay/spawn/wire.rs`, `probe/src/relay/spawn/node.rs` |
+| Owner claim (`spawn-node-claim.json`) | `probe/src/relay/spawn/claim.rs` |
+| Contract types (`SpawnSlots`, `SpawnedAgentState`, evidence) | `probe/src/relay/state.rs`, `contract/agents.rs` |
+
+## Owner binding
+
+`SpawnOrigin.owner` (`SpawnOwner {workspace_id, user_id, relay_workspace_id,
+actor_id, authority_hash}`) binds the person to the agent's immutable
+`agent_id` once, at the spawn, and is kept in the store across reconnects and
+restarts. `spawn::owner_of(registration)` returns `Known(owner)` or `Unknown`;
+unknown means peer-only (no owner input). The owner is never read from the
+action input, the task, or Relaycast metadata (`metadata.fleet`,
+`cloud_user_id`). A re-sent invocation answers as before. The same invocation
+asking for another name or harness is refused (`spawn_invalid_input`), and so
+is a name under another invocation (`spawn_agent_name_in_use`).
+
+Today the owner is always unknown. Relaycast stamps `caller_id` only for
+caller-aware `action` capabilities (`relay.action-caller: v1`), and spawn and
+release are `capacity`. Even then `caller_id` names the invoking agent, not a
+person. To bind an owner, the node needs one of:
+
+1. A server-owned invoke field stamped by Relaycast from Cloud's authenticated
+   spawn (not from the input), e.g. `owner: {workspace_id, user_id,
+   relay_workspace_id, actor_id, authority_hash}`, plus a Relaycast signature
+   or the node token's trust in the socket as the proof.
+2. Or a Cloud endpoint the node can call with its node token and the
+   `invocation_id` that returns the journaled `SpawnOwner`, with
+   `authorityHash` to check.
+
+## Quota hook
+
+`wire::Live.quota` (`metadata.live.quota` on each `spawn:<harness>`) takes
+`QuotaSignal {state, reason, observed_at, fresh, resets_at}`, the shape of
+`relay::quota::QuotaReading` (lanes `CodexOAuth`/`CodexRpc` map to Codex,
+`ClaudeOAuth` to Claude). A reading that is not fresh is sent as `unknown`.
+`Core::harness_quota` is the one place to wire it. It must read only
+`QuotaCache::snapshot(now)`, an instant read in which anything older than
+180 s is unknown. It must never call `quota::collect`, because a helper run
+takes up to 35 s and the heartbeat goes every 12 s. `QuotaCache::spawn_refresh`
+keeps the cache fresh every 120 s and starts nothing while no lane is on. Until
+a lane is approved, the field is `null`.
+
+## Liveness and observation
+
+Liveness comes from `Spawner::alive` (Claude pid and start time; Codex not
+archived; Grok's leader pid and start time), refined by
+`observe::RegistryObserver`, which asks each session's harness adapter
+(`relay::harness`): Codex app-server loaded threads and rollouts; Claude's
+registry `status` and its stream-json log under
+`<app data>/spawned-agents/<session id>.jsonl` (`launch::SPAWN_LOGS`); the turn
+events in a Grok session's `events.jsonl` (`turn_ended` last is idle, an
+unanswered `permission_requested` waiting, any other turn event working). A
+launcher that knows more first-hand (scope active or exited, exit status) can
+answer first through `Spawner::observe`.
+
+## Open questions
+
+- A reclaimed Codex thread (not loaded anywhere) can still be resumed by a
+  later delivery. Should the node resume it, or leave it reclaimed until
+  released?
+- The safe idle release policy is defined above but off. Should it ship, and
+  with what idle time?
+- Capability metadata that changes on every heartbeat makes Relaycast run its
+  roster prune pass each beat. A dedicated live-signal field on
+  `node.heartbeat` would avoid it.
+- Places reclaimed with unfinished work reach the requester only through
+  `release` metadata and `agent.exited missing_from_inventory`. Should
+  `agent.exited` carry a reason and the unfinished work?
+- Billing and repositories have no Settings UI yet. They are set through
+  `settings.set` (`spawn_harnesses.<id>.billing`, or `spawn_billing_codex`
+  and `spawn_billing_claude`; `spawn_repositories`).
+- Spawned agents' rows do not show their lifecycle yet. It is in
+  `agents.list` (`LocalAgent.spawn`).
+
+## End-to-end matrix
+
+Nothing below has been run. Every row needs a dedicated session named
+`e2e-lifecycle-*` that is spawned for the test. No existing session is
+messaged, stopped or touched. Rows marked **approval** need maintainer approval first.
+Turning on **Accept spawns** on a machine enrolls a real Relaycast node
+(`<prefix>-desktop`), so it is a step that needs approval on every machine
+below.
+
+Shared evidence: the node roster (`GET /v1/nodes`, publicNode:
+`capabilities[].metadata.configured/live`, `live`, `last_heartbeat_at`,
+`active_agents`, `max_agents`), `action.result` frames, the app's activity log
+and `agents.list` → `spawn`.
+
+| # | Scenario | Machine | Session | Steps | Expected evidence | Disruptive / approval |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| 0 | Enable the node | test-node-a (branch build installed) | — | Settings → Spawned agents → Accept spawns on; Maximum 2; `settings.set spawn_billing_codex=subscription` | Roster shows `test-node-a-desktop`: `spawn:codex`/`spawn:claude` with `metadata.configured` (billing, full_access, max 2) and `metadata.live` (`observed_at`, slots 0 of 2, resources); `max_agents` 2; `load_reported` | Enrolls a node: **approval** |
+| 1 | Configured vs live | test-node-a | — | Change the maximum to 3, then billing; watch two heartbeats | `max_agents` and `configured` change on the next heartbeat with no reconnect; `live.observed_at` moves each beat. Changing repositories reconnects (new `instance_id`) and shows `repo:` tags | Settings only, after row 0 |
+| 2 | Capacity outcomes | test-node-a (max 1) | `e2e-lifecycle-cap-1`, `-cap-2` | Spawn cap-1 targeting the node; spawn cap-2 immediately (within 12 s), then again after a heartbeat | cap-1 `spawned`; first cap-2 `capacity_changed`; second `spawn_capacity_exceeded`, both with `error_details` (active 1, max 1, retryable) and no queued or rerouted spawn. Relaycast may refuse first with 503 `handler_unavailable` | Starts one Codex thread: **approval** (row 0) |

+
+## Successful invocation receipts
+
+A successful spawn saves its public output in a private `spawn-completions/`
+receipt before answering the action. The receipt survives release and core
+restart. A later invocation with the same workspace and invocation id returns
+the original output, including an unconfirmed-task warning, without registering
+or launching another agent. Rebinding that invocation to another name or
+harness is refused. Replays are checked before current settings or capacity.
+
+Receipts are loaded on demand; completed invocations do not accumulate in an
+in-memory cache. Files have mode 0600 in a 0700 directory and contain no task,
+working directory, agent token or workspace key. SHA-256 digests of the origin
+and workspace credential scope their filenames; credential rotation changes
+that scope when discovery has no persistent workspace id. A receipt that cannot
+be read fails closed. A receipt that cannot be written after the agent was
+launched and its registration saved does not turn the spawn into a failure: the
+running agent is reported as spawned, and replays are answered from its
+registration until a receipt is written. Release and removal in the app
+(`agents.unregister`) save the receipt for such, older or recovered
+registrations before removing their durable registration, and refuse while it
+cannot be saved. The registration keeps the first task's unconfirmed-task
+verification (`taskUnconfirmed`; `interrupted` for an agent kept after a
+restart), so an answer from it carries the same warning as the first.
+
+A spawn refuses before registering on Relaycast when its intent
+(`spawn-intents.json`) cannot be written, and before launching when the
+returned agent id and token cannot be. A launch whose session the intent could
+not record, or whose worker panicked, is stopped, its intent marked ended and
+the agent deregistered, so a restart never keeps it.
+
+A release forgets the agent only once its end is confirmed: its process gone,
+or its Codex thread archived (or already archived). Otherwise it answers
+`release_failed: could not end @name: …`, and the registration, name and place
+are kept so the release can be asked again.

+# OpenClaw and Hermes delivery
+
+Relay Desktop delivers relay messages to two always-on personal agents that
+run their own gateway on the person's computer: OpenClaw
+(`probe/src/relay/openclaw.rs`) and Hermes Agent (`probe/src/relay/hermes.rs`).
+Neither is a terminal session, so neither is reached by keystrokes or a
+session file. Agent Relay is a local client of each gateway, on loopback only.
+
+Both routes are on wherever the agent is set up: Settings shows **OpenClaw
+agents** (`openclaw_gateway`) and **Hermes** (`hermes_agent`) with **Turn
+Off**, which leaves a marker under the app's data directory so the default is
+not applied again. `AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_OPENCLAW=0` and
+`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_HERMES=0` turn the routes off for the core. An agent is
+listed, and joins the relay without the auto-activate opt-in, only while its
+gateway answers this user's loopback credentials.
+
+## One session per sender
+
+Relay traffic never lands in the person's own chats. Each sender gets a
+session of its own on the agent, keyed by a hash of the Relaycast workspace
+and the sender's address, so a rename keeps the conversation and two
+workspaces never share one:
+
+| | Direct message | Channel post |
+|---|---|---|
+| OpenClaw | `agent:<agent>:relay:dm:<sender>-<hash>` | `agent:<agent>:relay:channel:<channel>` |
+| Hermes | `relay-dm-<sender>-<hash>` | `relay-channel-<channel>-<hash>` |
+
+The agent's final answer is sent back to the sender automatically, through the
+core's reply loop; tool progress and commentary are never sent. An agent that
+chooses not to answer (`NO_REPLY` on OpenClaw, an empty or failed run on
+Hermes) sends nothing.
+
+## OpenClaw
+
+The Gateway (`openclaw gateway`, `ws://127.0.0.1:18789` by default) is reached
+as an operator client offering protocols 3 and 4, as OpenClaw's own apps do
+(2026.5.7 and earlier speak only 3, 2026.5.12 and later only 4; nothing Agent
+Relay uses is new in 4). Port and secret come from
+`~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` (`OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH`, `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR`), read
+on each connection and never stored; `${VAR}` values and
+`OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_TOKEN`/`OPENCLAW_GATEWAY_PASSWORD` resolve from the core's
+environment. A config whose `gateway.mode` is `remote` is not contacted.
+
+Every OpenClaw from **2026.3.13** on is supported, and Agent Relay never asks
+for or performs an upgrade. What each request carries follows what the
+Gateway reports in `hello-ok` (`server.version`, `features.methods`,
+`snapshot.uptimeMs`; `probe/src/relay/openclaw/features.rs`): OpenClaw's
+schemas are closed, so a field an older release does not know would fail the
+whole request. A version that is not a release (a source build) counts as the
+oldest release its protocol and methods allow; a prerelease counts as the
+release before it.
+
+- **Handshake.** The core keeps its own Ed25519 device key
+  (`<app data>/openclaw/device.json`, 0600). It answers `connect.challenge`
+  with the v3 device signature, as client `cli`/`cli` named "Agent Relay",
+  with scopes `operator.read`, `operator.write` and `operator.admin`. Loopback
+  connects with the shared token are approved without a pairing prompt; admin
+  is needed for `suppressCommandInterpretation` and session tool limits.
+- **Limits** (2026.8.1 and later). Relay sessions are answer-only. Every send
+  restates the sender's session limits:
+  `sessions.create {key, agentId, permissionMode: "read-only"}` (and
+  `displayName` from 2026.9.1; creates or adopts; no command execution, no
+  writes), then `sessions.patch {key, toolOverrides: {mcpServers}}` turning
+  off every GBrain MCP server in `openclaw.json` except `gbrain_relay` (see
+  GBrain below).
+- **No limits before 2026.8.1.** An older Gateway has neither a read-only
+  mode nor per-session MCP settings. A relay sender still gets a session of
+  its own (`chat.send` creates it), but with the agent's usual tools; the
+  message is delivered, not refused. Settings says so on the **OpenClaw
+  agents** row while it is on (`openclaw_unlimited_version` in
+  `settings.get`): "OpenClaw <version> can't limit relay sessions, so anyone
+  on the relay who messages your agents gets a session with your agent's
+  usual tools. Updating OpenClaw to 2026.8.1 or later makes them
+  answer-only." Trusted senders are unaffected: they reach the main session
+  on every version.
+- **Send.** `chat.send {sessionKey, message, idempotencyKey: <delivery id>,
+  deliver: false}`, plus `suppressCommandInterpretation: true` from 2026.6.5.
+  `deliver: false` keeps the answer off Telegram and every other channel.
+  Command interpretation is suppressed on every line where the Gateway
+  offers it; on every version the attribution line opens the message, so a
+  peer's `/reset` is never where OpenClaw reads a command.
+- **No duplicate turns.** The Gateway's idempotency is in memory only. Before
+  each send the core reads `chat.history` (`sessionKey` and `limit` only, the
+  fields every release accepts) for the delivery's own user turn: from
+  2026.5.26 the one carrying `<delivery id>:user`, before that the one whose
+  text holds the delivery's attribution line (it names the message and its
+  reference). Found, the message already arrived: delivered, not sent again.
+  A resend of the session's last run goes straight to `chat.send`, whose
+  idempotency answers `in_flight` while that run is going.
+- **Busy sessions.** A session still answering the sender's previous message
+  (or, in the main session, a run the person started) makes the delivery
+  wait rather than be merged into that turn. From 2026.6.1 `chat.history`
+  says so (`sessionInfo.hasActiveRun`); from 2026.5.2 the session's
+  `sessions.list` row does (`hasActiveRun`). From 2026.3.22 the row's
+  `status: "running"` counts, but only for a run started since the Gateway
+  started (the store keeps the status across a restart) and within the run
+  cap. Before 2026.5.2 the core also asks `agent.wait {runId, timeoutMs: 0}`
+  about the last run it started there, unless that turn is already answered
+  in the history, the Gateway restarted since (its uptime), or it is older
+  than the run cap (`agent.wait` forgets runs after ten minutes). The run cap
+  is the agent timeout every such run has, plus five minutes, and at least
+  30 minutes: `agents.defaults.timeoutSeconds` in `openclaw.json`, else the
+  release's default (ten minutes on 2026.3.13, 48 hours from 2026.3.22). A
+  `0` there (which OpenClaw's own schema rejects) is read as no cap; such a
+  turn still ends on its answer in the history, a Gateway restart, or
+  `agent.wait` reporting it done. A send the Gateway
+  refused (or never received) does not count as the session's last run; one
+  whose response was lost does.
+- **2026.3.13 cannot see the person's own run.** Its `sessions.list` rows
+  carry no run status and its history shows a turn only once it ends, so a
+  trusted sender's message to the main session can join a turn the person
+  started there. Relay senders' own sessions are unaffected: only this core
+  starts runs in them.
+- **Answer.** The assistant entry whose `__openclaw.runId` is the delivery id
+  and that is marked `runTerminal`, where the Gateway marks one (released
+  Gateways mark only mirrored entries). Otherwise, as OpenClaw's own TUI
+  reads a run: the last assistant text that ends a run (any stop reason but
+  `toolUse`) after the delivery's user turn and before the next one, read
+  from the last 1,000 history entries (the most `chat.history` returns), only
+  this run's where entries name their run (from 2026.8.1), once that turn is
+  over by the checks above.
+
+| OpenClaw | Protocol | Session limits | Session name | Commands as text | Turn found by | Busy check |
+|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 2026.3.13 | 3 | none: usual tools | — | attribution line | attribution line | `agent.wait` + history (not the person's own runs) |
+| 2026.3.22 – 2026.5.1 | 3 | none: usual tools | — | attribution line | attribution line | `sessions.list` status, `agent.wait` + history |
+| 2026.5.2 – 2026.5.7 | 3 | none: usual tools | — | attribution line | attribution line | `sessions.list` |
+| 2026.5.12 – 2026.5.25 | 4 | none: usual tools | — | attribution line | attribution line | `sessions.list` |
+| 2026.5.26 – 2026.5.28 | 4 | none: usual tools | — | attribution line | `:user` key | `sessions.list` |
+| 2026.6.1 – 2026.6.4 | 4 | none: usual tools | — | attribution line | `:user` key | `chat.history` |
+| 2026.6.5 – 2026.7.x | 4 | none: usual tools | — | every line | `:user` key | `chat.history` |
+| 2026.8.1 – 2026.8.x | 4 | read-only, MCP limits | — | every line | `:user` key | `chat.history` |
+| 2026.9.1 and later | 4 | read-only, MCP limits | `displayName` | every line | `:user` key | `chat.history` |
+
+Checked against the npm releases' schemas, by a fake Gateway that plays each
+release in `probe/src/relay/openclaw/tests/versions.rs`, and live against
+installed Gateways with `probe/examples/openclaw_live.rs`.
+
+Updating OpenClaw is optional; it makes relay sessions answer-only from
+2026.8.1. Installs from before July 2026 must step through
+`openclaw@2026.9.5` and run `openclaw doctor --fix` twice before moving to the
+latest release, then `openclaw gateway install --force` to rewrite the service.
+
+### Trusted senders
+
+**Settings › Trusted senders** (`trusted_relay_senders`, shown while OpenClaw
+or Hermes is on) lists relay names or exact addresses trusted like the person.
+A message from one of them reaches the person's own agent: OpenClaw's main
+session (`agent:<agent>:main`), with its context, memory and tools, never
+limited by the relay; and the person's own Hermes (see below). Commands stay
+text and answers still never reach other channels. Everyone else keeps a
+session of their own, answer-only where OpenClaw can limit it (2026.8.1 and
+later). A name matches the sender's relay name
+without case; an entry with `@` matches only that exact address.
+
+### Agent Relay tools
+
+**Settings › Agent Relay tools** (under **OpenClaw agents**, while it is on)
+gives the person's OpenClaw agents Agent Relay's own tools, through the hosted
+Agent Relay MCP (`<site>/cloud/api/v1/mcp/shared-sessions`, the signed-in
+account's site, `https://agentrelay.com` by default): list the relay's agents,
+message them and spawn new ones. It is one click, as for Grok Bot and ChatGPT:
+the person picks a workspace and agent name on the hosted MCP's consent page
+and clicks Approve. Nothing is edited by hand and no terminal is needed.
+
+- **Connect** (`openclaw.relay_tools.connect`) reuses an `mcp.servers` entry
+  already at that URL, whatever its name; otherwise it runs `openclaw mcp add
+  agent_relay --url <url> --transport streamable-http --auth oauth --no-probe`.
+  An `agent_relay` entry at another address is the person's and is never
+  overwritten: the row says to remove or rename it. It then starts `openclaw
+  mcp login <name>`, reads the authorization URL it prints, and the app opens
+  it in the browser the way sign-in opens its approval page. The login keeps
+  running in the background, on its loopback callback, until the browser
+  returns to it (OpenClaw gives up after 5 minutes). An OpenClaw that cannot
+  start that callback asks for a pasted code, which the apps cannot offer:
+  that is shown as a failed sign-in.
+- **Status** (`openclaw.relay_tools.status`) is `waiting` while that login
+  runs (the apps read it every 2 seconds while Settings shows, and **Open
+  Again** opens the same page), else `authStatus.state` from `openclaw mcp
+  status --json` for the entry: `authorized` is `connected`; anything else,
+  or no entry, is `not_connected`. A read is reused for 30 seconds. OpenClaw
+  keeps the credentials; no token field is read, logged or shown.
+- **The CLI** is found without `PATH` (the core runs under launchd or
+  systemd): the running Gateway's own executable and script (usually
+  `node …/openclaw/dist/index.js`), else an `openclaw` in
+  `/opt/homebrew/bin`, `/usr/local/bin`, `~/.local/bin`, `~/.npm-global/bin`,
+  `~/.bun/bin`, `~/.volta/bin` or the npm prefix, then `PATH`. It runs with
+  the `OPENCLAW_CONFIG_PATH` (and `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR`) this core reads, and
+  every call but the login has a 20-second limit. Each runs in a process
+  group of its own and is stopped with SIGTERM to the group, then killed
+  after 5 seconds: OpenClaw's launcher (2026.10.4) respawns the CLI as a
+  detached child and forwards SIGTERM to it, so killing the launcher
+  outright would leave `mcp login` holding its OAuth callback port
+  (127.0.0.1:8989). Without the CLI, or with an OpenClaw that has no `mcp
+  login`, the row says so instead of offering Connect.
+
+Untrusted senders never get these tools: every answer-only session turns off
+each MCP server whose name contains `agent_relay` (or `agentrelay`) and each
+whose URL is the hosted Agent Relay MCP, whatever its name. Trusted senders
+reach the person's main session, which has them. A Gateway older than
+2026.8.1 cannot limit relay sessions (`openclaw_unlimited_version`), so there
+the row is unavailable, even when OpenClaw is already signed in, and Connect
+refuses: "OpenClaw <version> can't keep these tools away from people who
+aren't trusted senders. Updating OpenClaw to 2026.8.1 or later lets you
+connect them." A core that has not connected to the Gateway since it
+started first shakes hands with it to learn this; when the Gateway cannot be
+reached the row fails closed: "Agent Relay can't reach OpenClaw's Gateway to
+check what it supports. Start OpenClaw, then try again." Every other reason
+the handshake fails is named as OpenClaw's own row names it (a remote Gateway,
+an unreadable `openclaw.json`, a secret-reference token, a refusal), or "OpenClaw's
+Gateway is still starting. Try again in a moment."
+
+- **A server turned off** (`enabled: false`) is not connected, signed in or
+  not; Connect turns it on with `openclaw mcp configure <name> --enable`.
+- **No `mcp login`.** Before offering Connect with no entry yet, the core
+  reads `openclaw mcp login --help`; an OpenClaw without it is unavailable,
+  and nothing is added to `openclaw.json`.
+- **A running Gateway.** Released OpenClaw (through 2026.10.4) runs `mcp add`
+  and `mcp login` while its Gateway runs. Later builds refuse them while the
+  Gateway owns the state ("No local mutation was attempted"; their Gateway's
+  `mcp.authLogin` serves only plugin connectors from a browser Control UI).
+  Agent Relay never stops or restarts the Gateway; the row says to stop it,
+  connect, and start it again.
+
+## Hermes
+
+Relay traffic goes to a Hermes profile of its own, `relay`
+(`<HERMES_HOME or ~/.hermes>/profiles/relay`; `AGENT_RELAY_HERMES_PROFILE`
+names another), never the person's main Hermes: its own memory, no messaging
+channels, listed as **Hermes (relay)**. Its gateway serves the API on loopback
+when the profile's `.env` sets `API_SERVER_ENABLED=true` and an
+`API_SERVER_KEY` (`API_SERVER_PORT`, default 8642). The key is read on each
+request and never stored; an `API_SERVER_HOST` other than loopback is refused.
+Hermes is listed only while `GET /v1/capabilities` reports durable
+`runs_idempotency`.
+
+- **Send.** `POST /v1/runs {session_id, input, instructions}` with
+  `Idempotency-Key: agent-relay-<delivery id>`. Hermes reserves the key
+  durably, so a retry after a lost response, even across a restart, returns
+  the same run. The instructions tell Hermes the text is another agent's
+  message, not the person's instructions or slash commands, and to reply only
+  to that sender.
+- **Answer.** `GET /v1/runs/<id>`: the final `output` once the run is
+  `completed` with `completed: true`.
+- **Trusted senders** reach the person's own Hermes instead: the API server
+  of the main home (`HERMES_HOME`, else `~/.hermes`), in a session per sender
+  (`relay-trusted-<sender>-<hash>`), told the message is from someone trusted
+  like the person. That needs `API_SERVER_ENABLED=true` and a key in the main
+  home's `.env` (loopback only); while it is off, their messages wait rather
+  than go to the relay profile.
+
+Setting up the relay profile:
+
+```sh
+hermes profile create relay            # no --clone-channels: no Telegram etc.
+hermes -p relay auth add <provider>    # its own login, or the root login
+# profiles/relay/.env (mode 0600):
+#   API_SERVER_ENABLED=true
+#   API_SERVER_HOST=127.0.0.1
+#   API_SERVER_PORT=8643               # a port of its own
+#   API_SERVER_KEY=<random>
+# profiles/relay/config.yaml:
+#   gateway: { standalone: true }
+#   platform_toolsets: { api_server: [] }   # answer-only
+#   mcp_servers: { gbrain_relay: { url: …, headers: …, tools: { include: [recall, query] } } }
+hermes -p relay gateway install
+```
+
+## GBrain
+
+Relay sessions read the person's GBrain only through a scoped client, never
+the local plugin. GBrain enforces it: a `memory-reader` grant (read scope,
+write operations refused at dispatch) bound to the sources the person chose,
+with `visibility: private` pages hidden from it.
+
+```sh
+gbrain serve --http                                     # if not already serving
+gbrain auth create agent-relay --scopes read            # a bearer that does not expire
+gbrain auth rescope --token agent-relay --sources <source>[,…]
+```
+
+A `gbrain mcp grant … --harness generic --profile memory-reader` client works
+too, but it issues OAuth client credentials whose access tokens expire (an
+hour by default, 90 days at most), while an MCP server entry's headers are
+static; it would need rotating.
+
+The server URL and bearer become an MCP server named `gbrain_relay`: in
+`openclaw.json` under `mcp.servers` (an HTTP entry; never name an HTTP entry
+`gbrain`, which merges with the bundle plugin's stdio server), and in the
+Hermes relay profile's `mcp_servers`. Relay sessions turn every other GBrain
+server off; with no `gbrain_relay`, they have no brain.
+
+## Accepted risk (v1)
+
+Relay sessions are answer-only but not sandboxed. OpenClaw's `read-only` mode
+denies commands and writes, but on the Codex runtime it does not confine
+reads to the session root, so a relay sender's turn can read the person's
+files, `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` (gateway token, API keys) included, and an
+agent that can read files can reach GBrain's local data without its grants.
+On OpenClaw older than 2026.8.1 relay sessions are not limited at all: a relay
+sender gets a session of its own whose turns have the agent's usual tools
+(commands, file writes and its MCP servers, under the person's credentials).
+This is the product owner's decision, so that no one has to upgrade OpenClaw
+to join the relay: such messages are delivered, not refused. Settings says
+so on the **OpenClaw agents** row on macOS and Linux while it is on, naming
+the version, and updating OpenClaw to 2026.8.1 or later makes those sessions
+answer-only. Relay peers are trusted for v1; a per-agent setting letting peers have the
+agent do work is deferred.
+
+On the Codex runtime OpenClaw defers MCP tools: the model finds them through
+tool search and may not look, so GBrain recall in a relay session is
+best-effort.

+# OpenCode existing-session injection
+
+Agent Relay uses OpenCode's authenticated native server API. It never types
+into a TUI. The implementation is `relay::opencode_existing` and is shared by
+the macOS and Linux probe core.
+
+An eligible binding names all of these values:
+
+- the Agent Relay workspace;
+- the OpenCode session, project, optional workspace, and canonical directory;
+- a loopback `http://` listener with an explicit hostname and port;
+- the server PID, kernel start time, and local UID.
+- the canonical server executable, signed-in owner, and a probe marker hash
+  reference (never the marker or Basic secret).
+
+Before every injection the probe checks that the same kernel process still
+exists, is the current user, and still has matching `opencode serve
+--hostname … --port …` arguments. Basic auth comes from that exact process's
+`OPENCODE_SERVER_USERNAME` and `OPENCODE_SERVER_PASSWORD`; credentials are not
+stored in the binding, response bodies, journal, receipts, or diagnostics.
+The authenticated session response must exactly match every bound identity.
+Stale, wrong-owner, wrong-workspace, wrong-session, non-loopback, unauthenticated,
+or busy routes fail closed before a prompt is sent.
+
+OpenCode 1.18.34 documents `POST /session/:id/prompt_async`, but its 204 response
+only means the HTTP request was accepted. Agent Relay supplies a deterministic
+OpenCode `messageID` and treats the message as delivered once the transcript
+holds that exact user message and text. The receipt is
+`opencode:<that message id>`. The turn it starts is not waited for, so a turn
+longer than the receipt window is still delivered, not left in doubt. The
+answer is read back separately as the finished assistant message whose
+`parentID` equals the injected ID; an unrelated assistant response can never
+be taken for it.
+
+The journal is written and synced before the POST, moved to `accepted` after
+the 204, and moved to `completed` once the exact user message is read back. A
+read that fails or finds nothing yet is retried until the deadline; only a
+message that never appears, or appears different, leaves the delivery in doubt.
+Each route is serialized. A crash, disconnect, timeout, post-acceptance
+cancellation, malformed response, or uncertain provider failure remains
+in-doubt and is never resent. Cancellation before the POST is a certain
+refusal. Agent Relay does not call OpenCode's session-wide abort endpoint,
+because that could cancel a human's concurrent turn.
+
+The default-off `sessions.managed.launch` path, enabled only with
+`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_MANAGED_OPENCODE=1`, starts `opencode serve` on a random
+literal loopback port with random Basic authentication and a probe marker. The
+caller cannot supply any of those values. Authenticated readback obtains the
+provider project/workspace and exact session before the immutable record is
+written. Picker, registration and `LocalInjector` re-read and re-verify that
+record; arbitrary existing servers remain unavailable (a plain TUI is reached
+through the plugin below).
+
+A spawned OpenCode agent (`spawn:opencode`, see `native-spawn.md`) starts its
+server the same way (`relay/opencode_serve.rs`) and seals its binding in the
+same registry, marked as spawned (`ManagedSessions::adopt`). Such a binding is
+delivered to whatever the flag says, is never a picker row, cannot be taken
+over by a managed launch, and is removed when the spawn ends the agent.
+
+On restart, a pending or accepted delivery is never posted again. The adapter
+uses readback of its deterministic user message; only an exact match completes
+the delivery, while missing, unavailable or ambiguous evidence remains
+quarantined in doubt for operator resolution.
+
+## Plain OpenCode sessions: the plugin route
+
+A plain `opencode` TUI opens no port. OpenCode 1.18.3 and 1.18.35 run the
+TUI's server in a worker reached by an in-process fetch
+(`http://opencode.internal`), and listen on TCP only when the command line
+carries `--port`, `--hostname` or `--mdns`. The config keys `server.port` and
+`server.mdns` are not consulted for that decision, and nothing records a port
+or a password. So no setting in `opencode.json` can make an open TUI reachable,
+and the authenticated-server route above never sees one.
+
+OpenCode does load every `*.js` file in its global config directory's
+`plugins/` (`~/.config/opencode/plugins`, or under `XDG_CONFIG_HOME`) into
+every process it starts, the TUI included, and hands the plugin a client of
+that in-process server. Agent Relay's plugin, `agent-relay.js`, is the route:
+
+- **Install.** The plugin is on by default wherever OpenCode has run
+  (`SettingsExtension::default_on`, applied once per computer), unless the
+  plugins directory already holds a file of that name or the opt-out marker
+  below. The *OpenCode sessions* setting (`settings.set` with
+  `opencode_plugin`) writes the file and removes it. Turning it off also
+  leaves `agent-relay.js.off` beside it, a trace in OpenCode's own directory
+  that keeps the default from turning it on again; OpenCode loads only `*.js`
+  and `*.ts`, so it ignores the marker. Turning it on clears it. Only a file carrying the
+  plugin's `AGENT_RELAY_OPENCODE_PLUGIN=` marker is ever replaced or removed;
+  any other file with that name is kept as `agent-relay.js.relay-desktop-backup`
+  and put back when the setting goes off. At core start, an installed copy of
+  our plugin that differs from this build's (an older `PLUGIN_VERSION`) is
+  rewritten, so an update reaches computers that turned it on before; a
+  missing file or anyone else's is left alone. The user's `opencode.json` is never
+  edited. OpenCode processes started afterwards load it; ones already open are
+  listed as needing a restart (see below).
+- **Scope.** The plugin route is for a plain TUI, which runs one directory
+  instance per process. A process that serves several directories (such as
+  `opencode serve` with `--port`) is reached through the authenticated-server
+  route above; in such a process the plugin socket reaches only one directory
+  instance's sessions.
+- **Socket.** Each process listens on `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/opencode/<pid>.sock`
+  (mode 0600) after checking that the directory is this user's and mode 0700,
+  so the kernel refuses any other user's connection. The path is short because
+  a Unix socket path is limited to 104 bytes on macOS. A process the probe
+  launched itself (`AGENT_RELAY_MANAGED_SESSION_MARKER`) skips the plugin.
+- **Registry.** The process records the top-level sessions it holds in
+  `<pid>.json` (mode 0600): ones it created or ran a turn in, and the one it
+  was started on. Opening a session publishes no event and the plugin's
+  worker does not see the TUI's arguments, so the plugin reads its own command
+  line once the server is up: `--session <id>`/`-s` names the session,
+  `--continue`/`-c` means the latest top-level session in its directory. A
+  session picked inside the TUI is held from its next turn. Subagent sessions are never
+  listed. The plugin removes both files on exit and sweeps records of dead
+  pids; the probe believes a record only while its pid is alive, this user's,
+  an `opencode`/`opencode.exe` executable, and its socket a socket of this
+  user's in the private directory.
+- **Allow-list.** The socket answers only `GET /session/status` (filtered to
+  held sessions), `GET /session/<id>`, `GET /session/<id>/message`,
+  `GET /session/<id>/message/<message id>`, and
+  `POST /session/<id>/prompt_async` with exactly a `msg_relay_<32 hex>` id
+  and one text part, and only for a session that process holds. Every request
+  is rebuilt for the in-process server; nothing is forwarded verbatim, and
+  everything else is 404.
+- **Trust boundary.** The socket is this user's, like the relay-send socket.
+  Bun's server exposes no peer credentials, so the plugin cannot tell the
+  probe from another process of the same user, and does not try: such a
+  process can already read OpenCode's session database and transcripts under
+  `~/.local/share/opencode` and prompt any session with `opencode run
+  --session`. The allow-list keeps what the socket adds to that small: read
+  the sessions that process holds, and add one text prompt to one of them.
+  Another user is refused by the kernel. The probe, which does read peer
+  credentials, never talks to anything but the exact plugin process.
+
+Delivery uses the same `relay::opencode_existing` injector, journal,
+deterministic message id and receipt as the managed route. The binding's endpoint is `unix:<socket>`. Before every request the
+probe proves the pid, its kernel start time, uid and trusted executable, the
+socket directory's owner and mode, and the socket's exact inode, which the
+credential reference pins, so a plugin that restarted is a different route.
+On each connection it reads the kernel's peer credentials (`SO_PEERCRED`;
+`LOCAL_PEERPID` and `getpeereid` on macOS) and refuses unless the peer is this
+user and the pid the socket is named for. A session held by more than one live
+process waits instead of guessing which one runs the turn.
+
+Agents are added as `opencode-open` sessions, pinned to their session id, and
+never auto-activated. `AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_OPENCODE_OPEN=0` turns the route off.
+
+**Replies.** OpenCode calls its plugins' `shell.env` hook with the session id
+before it runs a shell for that session: the bash tool and a typed shell
+command. The plugin sets `AGENT_RELAY_OPENCODE_SESSION` to that id, as Grok sets
+`GROK_SESSION_ID`. On the relay-send socket, that variable names the caller only
+after the probe walks up from the calling process to the nearest OpenCode
+process of this user, and that process's plugin record holds the session. The
+process must also still be the same afterwards. macOS shows no other process
+the environment of an Apple binary such as `/usr/bin/curl` or `/bin/zsh`, so
+there the reply and agents commands run the probe executable (`relay
+socket-request`), whose environment can be read, as for a Codex app-server
+thread. A caller under OpenCode whose variable cannot be read is the one
+session that OpenCode process holds, and nobody when it holds several or none:
+the walk never passes an OpenCode process to name an outer Claude Code or Codex
+session. An agent started inside another inherits its session variables, so
+the variable of the nearest agent above the caller decides: under OpenCode, an
+inherited `CODEX_THREAD_ID` or `GROK_SESSION_ID` is ignored, and under a Codex,
+Grok, Muse or Claude Code session started from an OpenCode shell, an inherited
+OpenCode tag is ignored. So a registered session whose
+plugin process holds it is given the same reply and agents commands as Claude
+Code, Codex and Grok, and answers as the agent it is registered as. Where it
+replies itself, the automatic answer read back from the transcript is the
+fallback, as for those sessions.
+
+**Needing a restart.** An OpenCode TUI of this user's that runs without the
+plugin, because it started before the plugin was installed, is listed as a
+row that is not live: the top-level session most recently updated in its
+working directory, read from OpenCode's `opencode.db` (read-only). Adding it is
+refused with a request to restart OpenCode.
+
+Live proof on macOS, OpenCode 1.18.3 and 1.18.35: the plugin loaded in a plain
+TUI from the global `plugins/` directory, the allow-list returned 404 for
+`POST /session` and `GET /config`, and a `prompt_async` with a `msg_relay_` id
+produced an assistant message whose `parentID` was that id, `finish=stop`, with
+the answer text read back over the socket.
+
+Live proof of the whole path on macOS, OpenCode 1.18.35, with this build run as
+an isolated core: the plugin was turned on by default at core start; a plain
+`opencode` was listed and added as an agent; a relay message landed in it and
+its answer came back on the relay as the agent; a TUI restarted with
+`--session` received the next message (a 41-second turn, settled about a
+second after the POST, the answer sent when it finished); and a process killed
+after OpenCode accepted a prompt, before replying, left the delivery in doubt,
+with that message in the transcript exactly once and never posted again.

+# Ownership and native session input
+
+## Authority
+
+The permission principal is a human Cloud user in one Cloud workspace. A
+Relaycast agent id identifies the actor; it does not grant that actor human
+permissions. A name, machine address, title, task, message body, and Relaycast
+`metadata.cloud_user_id` or `owner_hash` are display or routing data only.
+
+For a desktop registration, the signed-in Cloud account at registration time
+is stored against the immutable Relaycast agent id. Cloud accepts the desktop
+identity only through an authenticated request and proof of that exact agent's
+token and id. Account switching cannot relabel an existing registration.
+Older desktop-session registrations have no stored owner and remain **unknown**
+locally; there is no historical inference or backfill. Unknown is not a reason
+to withhold a desktop session from Cloud: the desktop identity sync sends it,
+and Cloud decides (see below). A native spawned registration is not a desktop
+session identity and is never sent through that sync; its Cloud authority comes
+only from the audited spawn invocation and journal described next.
+Cloud resolves its owner from a unique `ready` hosted spawn journal row keyed
+by immutable worker id and Relaycast workspace id. The journal records the
+authenticated human and verifies invocation caller id, node id, name, and
+worker id at readiness. A single ready audit event must also record Relaycast's
+server-derived `origin_node_id` matching the journal node id. A missing or
+mismatched origin keeps the spawn usable but peer-only. Other spawn routes have
+no such row and stay peer-only.
+Reconnect, status updates, and agent renames must preserve identity continuity;
+name reuse must not transfer the row.
+
+## Delivery decision
+
+Relaycast derives a message's originating `agent_id` from the sender's token.
+The desktop must use that id and the message id from the Relaycast delivery,
+never an id or an approval claim in message text. Before an owned native
+Codex/Claude session receives a user turn, Cloud must resolve the message id
+in the same Relaycast workspace, identify the sender's current authenticated
+human binding, verify the target's binding, and evaluate the human's current
+workspace/project and contractor grants where applicable. The initial resolver
+accepts only a sender bound to the same human as the recipient; cross-owner
+allowlists wait for the full grant evaluator. A locally allowed sender is an
+additional narrowing choice, not a grant of Cloud rights. Both the agent id
+and authorizing human id must be recorded with the decision and exposed to the
+session. A failed lookup, stale binding, revoked membership, or mismatched
+workspace yields peer delivery only. Do not cache a positive decision across
+revocation; check again before handoff.
+
+Peer delivery retains the vendor's peer messaging guardrails. In particular,
+the relay must not turn a peer message or text such as `human_id=...` or
+`approved` into an owner turn. Owner input is eligible only for sessions the
+desktop itself launched through the native Codex app-server or Claude
+stream-json path. The harness's own sandbox and permission rules still apply.
+
+## Current implementation boundaries
+
+- Desktop `agents.rs` formerly credited every registration to each newly
+  attached account. It now records only forward registrations locally and
+  leaves unknown registrations unknown. Desktop identity sync withholds only
+  agents whose stored owner is a different user or workspace; agents with no
+  stored owner are sent, as before v2026.10.43, so updating never drops an
+  existing agent's Cloud identity.
+- Cloud `desktop-identities.ts` verifies token/id/address under an authenticated
+  Cloud request and stores rows only for that caller. It skips (`not_owned`)
+  any agent whose `owner_hash` is not the caller's, and `join_relay` refuses
+  the same mismatch (`relay-service.ts`). That hash is mutable Relaycast
+  metadata, so it narrows what can be linked but is not proof of ownership:
+  the binding is the authenticated caller plus the agent token.
+- Relaycast already stores a server-derived sender agent id on messages and
+  exposes it in delivery queue records. Its agent metadata remains mutable and
+  cannot be used as the authorization source.
+- The Cloud spawn journal has authenticated `userId`, `workspaceId`,
+  `actorId`, `invocationId`, `nodeId`, and the verified `workerId` when ready.
+  Cloud resolves that exact id at delivery time. The node cannot establish a
+  human owner from a Relaycast capacity invocation, which has no human caller.
+- A Relaycast pending-delivery read uses the recipient's own agent token and
+  message id. Unknown, not addressed, expired, and acknowledged messages all
+  produce the same 404. Cloud treats errors and timeouts as peer routing. The
+  read must happen before the desktop acknowledges the delivery.
+
+## Desktop sign-in evidence for the resolver route
+
+Cloud's browser desktop sign-in has a server-verifiable marker: the PKCE
+handoff is consumed and the operator token is issued in the same token family
+(`packages/web/lib/auth/api-token-store.ts`). The resolver requires both the
+current bearer and that consumed handoff family, rechecking revocation on
+each call.
+
+Headless setup defaults to device approval (`probe/src/relay/setup.rs:802-828`),
+and the probe can reuse an official CLI login (`probe/src/relay/account.rs:366-395,
+999-1020`). Device approval creates an ordinary CLI token session and links
+the consumed device grant to its token row (`packages/web/lib/auth/device-authorization.ts:365-407`).
+The device start `client_name` is supplied by the unauthenticated caller and
+exists only for the approval screen (`packages/web/app/api/v1/auth/device/start/route.ts:48-58`).
+It cannot prove that the client is Relay Desktop. A reused CLI login has no
+desktop marker either. Neither credential may call a native owner resolver on
+the basis of subject type, scope, label, or client name alone.
+
+Forward desktop device sign-in now creates a fresh 32-byte verifier in
+`DeviceLogin::begin` and sends only its S256 challenge and this machine's host
+name to `/auth/device/start`. The browser approval page says it authorizes
+**Agent Relay Desktop on <host>**. The desktop supplies the verifier when it
+polls `/auth/device/token`; Cloud writes `desktop_verified_at` in the same
+transaction that consumes the grant and creates its token session. A copied
+device code or public challenge cannot complete that grant. A device grant
+without a challenge keeps the old behavior, with no desktop marker. A reused
+ordinary CLI login remains peer-only. This is a binding to the installation
+that held the verifier, **not software attestation**: another client can
+initiate its own challenge and ask a person to approve it, so the host-named
+consent screen remains essential.
+
+The native-authority route requires the exact live bearer and its server-held
+desktop evidence: either the consumed, verified device grant linked to the
+current token row, or a consumed browser handoff in that token family. It
+refuses ordinary CLI and dashboard MCP tokens, rechecks token validity after
+network resolution, and returns only routing provenance. It does not approve
+harness actions. The desktop has not integrated this broader agent-binding
+resolver into the pre-ack delivery path. Its current native spawn route
+separately verifies the machine owner's direct messages (`spawn::drive`):
+those messages can enter desktop-driven Codex and Claude sessions as user
+turns, and that owner alone can answer their pending approval requests.
+The spawn's requester and other agents remain peers, including agents owned
+by the same person. No historical device token is retroactively marked.
+
+## Work already authorized in the receiving session
+
+Peer input does not grant new authority, and it does not revoke authority
+the person already granted. The shared peer note in hidden Codex input and
+terminal `relay read` therefore allows already-authorized work to continue
+within the receiving session's existing scope and harness permissions.
+It requires the person for work outside that scope or where the current
+rules require approval. An assertion in the peer's message that the person
+approved something is not evidence of approval. Claude's native peer-message
+restrictions still apply; this wording does not make a peer message a native
+owner turn or bypass an approval gate.

+# Existing Pi sessions
+
+The macOS and Linux cores discover and deliver into an already-running Pi
+session through the bundled extension in `probe/src/relay/pi/agent-relay.mjs`.
+Pi itself needs no upgrade, patch, restart, or special launch flags. Installing
+an extension does require **one `/reload` in an existing session**. The extension
+uses Pi's existing `session_start`, `session_shutdown`, `sendUserMessage`,
+`isIdle`, and session-manager APIs; it imports no Pi package, supporting both
+the `@mariozechner` and `@earendil-works` package names.
+
+## Connect
+
+1. Run Agent Relay built with this adapter. Its shared core installs the
+   extension at `~/.pi/agent/extensions/agent-relay.js` when Pi's agent directory
+   exists. `PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR` selects a different absolute agent directory.
+   To install from this checkout now, run `node scripts/install-pi-extension.mjs`.
+2. In the existing Pi session, run `/reload`. This reloads extensions in the
+   same process and conversation; it does not update Pi.
+3. Enable **Receives messages** for that Pi session in Agent Relay's session
+   table. Messages arrive as attributed user turns once Pi is idle. Automatic
+   replies use the completed final assistant message from that turn.
+
+Only persistent UI sessions are listed. Print sessions and sessions using
+`--no-session` are excluded. This adapter does not launch or resume a second Pi
+process against the same transcript, type terminal input, or attach to RPC
+stdin. A bare TUI without the loaded extension cannot receive messages.
+`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_PI=0` disables discovery, installation, and delivery in the
+core. Another person's extension at `agent-relay.js` is preserved, never replaced.
+
+## Identity and delivery
+
+Each loaded runtime creates a random private directory below
+`~/.agentworkforce/desktop/pi/` and keeps `session.json` open. The core admits a
+session only while the kernel reports that its same-user process holds that
+file. Registry files and delivery records are 0600; directories are 0700;
+symlinks and non-private records are refused. Duplicate live holders of a Pi
+session ID are excluded. Registration pins the process PID, kernel start time,
+and random runtime identity. Every send repeats discovery and checks that pin.
+
+The core atomically writes and syncs a pending inbox record keyed by the full
+SHA-256 of the Relaycast message ID. Repeated requests read that same record;
+different text under the same ID fails closed. New records carry a durable
+arrival sequence allocated under the runtime's delivery lock; retries keep their
+original place. The extension submits pending messages in that sequence, rather
+than SHA-256 filename order. Pre-upgrade records precede sequenced records and
+use their file times as a best-effort ordering fallback; their exact historical
+arrival order was not recorded. An unreadable counter fails closed. The extension polls every 250 ms
+and waits until Pi is idle. It syncs a claim before calling `sendUserMessage`.
+Only an exact matching user message in Pi's own session history and saved JSONL
+promotes the record to `recorded`; the extension syncs that transcript before
+syncing its receipt. Older Pi versions defer saving the first user entry until
+the first assistant message, so that first delivery stays accepted until then.
+Only a saved entry is acknowledged. Readback checks the last 8 MiB of the
+transcript; a message outside that bound stays unacknowledged, never resubmitted.
+The prompt includes a full delivery digest for exact transcript correlation.
+An uncertain claim is never submitted again. A complete final assistant
+message is saved separately; tool progress, errors, and aborted turns are not
+automatic replies.
+
+Reloading or switching sessions closes the registry descriptor. A new runtime
+gets a new identity, so an existing registration must be turned off and added
+again. Pending messages in the old runtime are not transferred. Receipts remain
+private on disk so completed answers can still be read after Pi exits; there is
+currently no automatic cleanup of these runtime directories. Lost claims need
+manual reconciliation rather than blind retry.
+
+An already-recorded receipt is reconciled before requiring a live binding.
+It can settle the exact message ID and text after Pi exits, reloads or switches
+sessions; this never submits a new prompt to a replacement runtime.
+
+This bridge trusts code running as the signed-in operating-system user, as Pi's
+extension API does. Private files exclude other users; they do not sandbox
+malicious code with the same UID, which can already read the relay's tokens,
+inboxes and Pi transcripts. The held-file and PID/start/runtime checks prove
+the registered local holder and prevent accidental retargeting; they are not
+code attestation of the Pi process.
+
+The route supports receiving messages and automatic final answers, including
+subscribed channel batches: their final answer replies once to the batch's last
+post, whose message ID is used for answer lookup. Direct messages are unchanged.
+The journal retains that original post's routing metadata, so a queue member
+leaving before retry never changes the inbox key or answer destination. Pins
+created before this fix retain Pi's original batch key and previous lack of an
+automatic channel reply; changing their key on upgrade could run the prompt
+again. Newly queued batches use the persisted original last post.
+
+If the extension cannot be installed, both desktop apps retain the reason in
+status details and Settings → Relay, even when connecting after core startup.
+A conflicting extension is preserved. Resolve the conflict or file permissions,
+restart Agent Relay to retry installation, then run `/reload` in Pi. Successful
+setup clears the diagnostic on the next core start.
+
+The route does not yet identify Pi tool subprocesses for the relay-send socket, so it supplies no
+shell reply hints or session self-registration command.
+
+## Verification
+
+Run `bash scripts/test-pi-live.sh` for the extension unit tests and a real Pi
+TUI against a deterministic loopback model. It installs pinned Pi 0.68.0
+(`@mariozechner`) and Pi 1.3.0 (`@earendil-works`) into temporary directories,
+with fresh agent homes and transcripts; it uses no model credentials and does
+not update the person's Pi installation. Both packages are tested on Linux and
+macOS in CI.
+
+The live test starts Pi before installing the extension, loads it with
+`/reload`, discovers it through `LocalSessions`, pins its registration, sends
+through `LocalInjector`, confirms the user entries in Pi's actual JSONL
+transcript, and reads its final replies. It checks idle delivery, a message
+waiting unclaimed while another response runs, duplicate suppression, binding
+replacement on reload, switching sessions with `/new`, and receipts after exit.
+Only the model HTTP endpoint is a fixture; Pi's TUI, extension loader,
+session manager, agent loop, and Relay's discovery and injector are real.
+
+For a paid live-model test, set `OPENAI_API_KEY` in the environment and run
+`bash scripts/test-pi-live-model.sh`. It tests both pinned versions with OpenAI
+`gpt-4.1-mini` and Pi's real `read`, `bash`, and `write` tools. Each isolated
+session starts before extension installation and loads it using `/reload`.
+The model must read a fresh challenge, execute a shell command, write a checked
+result, and process two follow-ups injected while the shell tool is running. The
+test verifies the saved tool results, all three final Relay answers and their saved arrival order, duplicate
+suppression, and receipt settlement after exit. The API key is passed only
+through the child environment; it is not written into Pi's temporary home.
+This test is opt-in and does not run in CI. `RELAY_PI_MODEL` overrides the model;
+`RELAY_PI_PROVIDER` overrides the provider. For a signed-in provider, set
+`RELAY_PI_AUTH_FILE` to a Pi-format `auth.json`; the harness copies it with 0600
+permissions into its disposable home and never modifies the source credentials.
+For example, a Pi Codex sign-in can use `RELAY_PI_PROVIDER=openai-codex` and
+an exact available model ID in `RELAY_PI_MODEL`. `RELAY_PI_MODELS_FILE` optionally
+copies a Pi-format `models.json` into the test home, allowing an older Pi to
+call a current model without updating Pi or changing its installed catalog.
+`RELAY_PI_EVIDENCE_ROOT` optionally retains each version's test transcript and
+summary in private directories. The test never uses existing conversations or
+updates the person's Pi installation.
+

+# Relay Desktop — plan and contracts
+
+Relay Desktop is the native companion app that makes connecting a computer to
+Agent Relay Teams a two-click job: install the app, sign in with Google, done.
+It installs and supervises the native `agent-relay-probe` (built from
+[`probe/`](../probe/)), shows upload progress in the menu bar, and lets
+the user pause uploads, choose which past sessions to share, and control
+launch-at-login.
+
+This document is the source of truth shared by the four pieces of work:
+
+1. **Probe "desktop bridge"** (`probe/src/probe/`): machine-readable commands
+   the app drives. Section 3.
+2. **macOS and Linux apps** (`macos/`, `linux/`): native menu/tray apps over
+   the same bridge, assembled by `scripts/`. Sections 2, 4, 5.
+3. **Packaging + CI/CD** (`scripts/`, `.github/workflows/`) and the **Windows
+   placeholder** (`windows/`). Section 6.
+4. **agentrelay.com** download page/buttons pointing at this repo's GitHub
+   Releases. Section 7.

+## 1. What exists today

+- `agent-relay-probe` (Rust, clap) signs a computer in to Agent Relay Cloud with
+  the OAuth **device flow** (`POST {site}/cloud/api/v1/auth/device/start`, poll
+  `/device/token`), obtains workspace-scoped RelayHistory (`rth_*`) credentials
+  through Cloud's workspace bridge, captures local coding sessions (Claude Code,
+  Codex, Cursor, …) into `history.db`, and runs durable delivery to
+  `https://history.agentrelay.com/v1/delivery/batches`.
+- State lives in `~/.agentworkforce/probe/<sha256(site,account,workspace)>/`:
+  `config.json`, `history.db`, `collector.lock` (OS lock = "running"),
+  `runtime.json` (`startup_id`, `pid`, `ready`), `stop.json`, `collector.log`
+  (rotated at 10 MB to `collector.log.1`..`.3`),
+  plus `stages/` auth under that dir (`RELAYHISTORY_HOME`).
+- Commands: `cloud install [--include-existing|--new-sessions-only] [--foreground]
+  [--once] [--force-login]`, `stop`, `status`, hidden `run --directory --startup-id`.
+  `status`/`stop` take `--site-url --account --workspace`.
+- Sharing choice today is binary and immutable: *all* (existing + future) or
+  *new only* (baseline exclusion of every session known at setup; later
+  discovered sessions are delivered).
+- Delivery model (`crates/ai-hist/src/delivery.rs`): one active *job*
+  (generation) per (destination, instance, account). Exclusions are per
+  `(source, session_id)` rows in `delivery_exclusions`. Adding an exclusion is
+  cheap. **Removing** an exclusion that a live job selects fails with
+  `DELIVERY_GENERATION_REQUIRED`: the job must be cancelled and a fresh
+  generation created (bootstrap rescans local history; the server is
+  idempotent on record revisions, so re-sending already-acknowledged rows is
+  safe, just work). `pause_job`/`resume_job` exist but the collector currently
+  treats any non-`active` state as an error.
+- The probe ships only inside the desktop app: CI and releases build `probe/`
+  for each target with `scripts/build-probe.sh`, stamped with the desktop
+  release version.
+- Google sign-in happens on Cloud's web pages. Agent Relay Teams signs users up
+  via `https://agentrelay.com/cloud/api/auth/google/start?next=…`; the device
+  approval URL the probe returns is on `https://agentrelay.com` and Cloud asks
+  the user to sign in (Google) before approving the device. The desktop app
+  never handles Google credentials itself: "Sign in with Google" starts the
+  device flow and opens the approval URL in the default browser.
+
+## 2. User experience (macOS and Linux)
+
+- **First launch:** a full window inspired by Skip, with a dark left splash and
+  a light right sign-in panel. Choose all, new-only, or selected sessions
+  (selected is the default), then **Sign in with Google**. The probe emits an
+  approval URL for browser sign-in, saves credentials and sets up RelayHistory.
+  After `ready` and successful process completion, the same window shows Sessions.
+  Errors appear inline, and cancelled attempts cannot overwrite later logins.
+- **Main window:** available from the Dock and **Open Agent Relay…** in the menu
+  bar. Sidebar pages are Sessions, Settings and Account. Closing it keeps the
+  collector and menu-bar controls running.
+  - *Sessions*: real record progress plus per-session upload state, search,
+    individual **Upload**, checkboxes and **Upload selected**, **Upload all**,
+    and all/new/selected policy controls. Selection persists on errors. A
+    **Load more** button extends the initial 500-row list. **Stop sharing**
+    stops future uploads without deleting already uploaded history.
+  - *Settings*: launch-at-login and sharing policy, with confirmation before
+    changing the policy.
+  - *Account*: account/workspace/site, probe and app versions, log file, and
+    logout. Failed disconnects retain the connected state and show the error.
+- **Menu bar / system tray:** current status, progress, pause/resume, open window, settings,
+  and quit. The app polls status and sessions every five seconds while a window
+  or panel is open, and status every thirty seconds otherwise.
+- **Resilience:** the app registers as a login item (default on, via
+  `SMAppService`, toggle in Settings). On every launch and every 60 s it checks
+  `status --json`; if `running == false` and not logged out it calls `start`.
+  The probe process is detached (`setsid`), so it survives the app quitting; the
+  app is a supervisor, not a parent.
+
+## 3. Probe desktop bridge (contract v1)
+
+All new behaviour is added to `agent-relay-probe` in
+`probe/src/probe/{main.rs,collector.rs}` (+ new modules as needed). Existing commands and flags keep working unchanged. Every `--json`
+output is a single JSON object on stdout (NDJSON for `cloud install --json`,
+one object per line), UTF-8, no trailing prose. Human-readable output is
+unchanged when `--json` is absent. Errors: exit code 1, one safe sentence on
+stderr (the existing `UserError`/`CloudAuthError` rules — never bodies,
+credentials, URLs from responses, or session content). Every JSON object
+carries `"bridge_version": 1`.
+
+`<target>` below means the existing `--site-url URL --account ID --workspace ID`
+arguments (site defaults to `https://agentrelay.com`).
+
+### 3.1 `agent-relay-probe installs --json`
+
+Lists every probe directory under `~/.agentworkforce/probe/` whose
+`config.json` parses. It is a pure read on the launch path: it never opens a
+decommissioned directory's store and does no maintenance (see 3.12):
+
+```json
+{"bridge_version":1,"installs":[{"directory":"/Users/x/.agentworkforce/probe/ab12…","site_url":"https://agentrelay.com","account_id":"usr_…","workspace_id":"ws_…","org_id":"org_…","sharing_mode":"new","running":true,"paused":false}]}
+```
+
+### 3.2 `agent-relay-probe cloud install --json …`
+
+Adds `--json` and a third sharing flag `--selected-sessions-only`
+(`sharing_mode = "selected"`; mutually exclusive with the other two). With
+`--json`, stdin is never read (a missing sharing flag on a fresh install is an
+error), and stdout is NDJSON:
+
+```json
+{"bridge_version":1,"event":"approval","verification_uri":"https://agentrelay.com/…","user_code":"ABCD-EFGH"}
+{"bridge_version":1,"event":"connected","account_id":"usr_…","workspace_id":"ws_…","org_id":"org_…","directory":"/Users/x/.agentworkforce/probe/ab12…"}
+{"bridge_version":1,"event":"ready","running":true}
+```
+
+`user_code` is `null` when the URL already carries it. `--json` implies the
+detached background start (never `--foreground`). Reconnecting an existing
+directory works exactly as today (choice must match, else the error sentence).
+
+### 3.3 `agent-relay-probe start <target> [--json]`
+
+Starts the detached collector for an existing directory **without any Cloud
+sign-in** (uses the stored `rth_*` session; refresh tokens last 90 days). If
+already running, succeeds. JSON: `{"bridge_version":1,"running":true,"started":false}`.
+(`started` is `true` only when this call launched a process.) Reuse
+`collector::start_background`. The startup wait/"ready" handshake stays.
+
+### 3.4 `agent-relay-probe status <target> --json`
+
+```json
+{"bridge_version":1,"probe_version":"0.19.0","running":true,"paused":false,
+ "sharing_mode":"new","site_url":"https://agentrelay.com","account_id":"usr_…",
+ "workspace_id":"ws_…","org_id":"org_…","directory":"…",
+ "delivery":{"state":"active","bootstrap_complete":true,"pending_records":12,
+   "pending_bytes":40960,"acknowledged_records":3401,"unqueued_changes":0,
+   "suppressed_records":0,"skipped_records":0,"last_attempt_ms":1758300000000,
+   "last_acknowledged_ms":1758300000000,"next_attempt_ms":0,"failure":null},
+ "sessions":{"total":210,"shared":57,"excluded":153},
+ "last_cycle":{"at_ms":1758300000000,"ok":true,"message":null}}
+```
+
+`paused` reflects the delivery job state `paused`. `last_cycle` is written to
+`cycle.json` in the directory after every pass (`at_ms`, `ok`, `message` = the
+safe sentence on failure), with `capture` and `delivery` carrying each side's
+`ok`/`error_class`/`message` and the top-level fields holding the effective
+verdict, capture fault first. A pass that only delivered observed nothing about
+capture, so it carries the standing capture verdict. Status carries no
+`retention`: uploads read the change feed and hold no journal, so the app
+offers no **Compact now**.
+`sessions.shared` counts session identities with no exclusion row. Without
+`--json` the existing "Probe is running/stopped." text stays.
+
+### 3.5 `agent-relay-probe pause <target> [--json]` / `resume <target> [--json]`
+
+Call `delivery::pause_job` / `resume_job` on the configured job. The collector
+loop treats a `paused` job as healthy: it still captures locally each cycle but
+skips delivery and the heartbeat and does not log an error. JSON:
+`{"bridge_version":1,"paused":true}`.
+
+### 3.6 `agent-relay-probe sessions list <target> --json [--limit N]`
+
+Sessions from the directory's `history.db`, newest `last_activity_ms` first,
+default limit 500:
+
+```json
+{"bridge_version":1,"sharing_mode":"new","sessions":[
+ {"source":"claude","session_id":"29284179-…","summary":"Repair authentication routing","title":"Fix auth rewrite…",
+  "cwd":"/Users/x/code/app","git_branch":"main","first_activity_ms":…,
+  "last_activity_ms":…,"included":false,"status":"not_shared"}]}
+```
+
+`summary` is the RelayHistory Cloud session-analysis title when one is available;
+otherwise it is omitted and the desktop falls back to `title`. `title` =
+`first_prompt` trimmed to 120 chars (fallback `last_assistant_text`, then the
+session id). `included` = no exclusion row. `status` ∈
+`uploading` (a record is in a leased batch), `uploaded` (included and every record of it acknowledged — if per-session
+acknowledgement is not cheaply derivable, use `shared`), `queued`
+(included, delivery pending), `not_shared` (excluded). The rows come from
+`SessionStore::sessions`, the catalog read; the command never mutates.
+
+### 3.7 `agent-relay-probe sessions include <target> --json --session SOURCE:ID …`
+### `agent-relay-probe sessions exclude <target> --json --session SOURCE:ID …`
+
+Both mutations use the stopped-collector regeneration path below. `exclude`
+adds exclusion rows and removes explicit selections. `include` withdraws exclusions
+for the named sessions; because a
+live job selects them, it must **regenerate**: cancel the current job, remove
+the exclusions, create a new job with the same `DeliveryJobConfig`, persist the
+new `job_id` in `config.json`, and record the included identities in
+`selected.json` so `selected` mode never re-excludes them. The collector must
+not be mid-cycle: take the collector lock (stop the running collector first,
+regenerate, then restart it, all inside this command) or, simpler, have the
+command write a `regenerate.json` request that the collector applies between
+cycles — pick one, document it, and make the command return only once the
+change is durable. The implementation uses a replayable `sharing-change.json`
+intent under `desktop.lock` plus the stopped collector lock, and preserves pause
+state across regeneration. JSON: `{"bridge_version":1,"included":["claude:29284179-…"],"regenerated":true}`.
+
+### 3.8 `agent-relay-probe sharing set <target> --mode all|new|selected --json`
+
+Changes the sharing mode for an existing install: regenerate as in 3.7 with the
+new baseline — `all` withdraws every exclusion; `new` excludes every session
+known now except those in `selected.json`; `selected` does the same and,
+additionally, the collector excludes every *newly discovered* session (after
+the capture sweep, before delivery, each cycle) unless it is listed in
+`selected.json`. Persist `sharing_mode` in `config.json` (keep the existing
+`include_existing` bool for compatibility; `serde(default)` derives
+`sharing_mode` from it when absent). JSON: `{"bridge_version":1,"sharing_mode":"selected","regenerated":true}`.
+
+### 3.9 `agent-relay-probe disconnect <target> [--json]`
+
+Stops the collector, cancels the delivery job, best-effort revokes the stored
+`rth_*` session (`POST {history_url}/v1/auth/token/revoke`), removes the
+stored auth files and `config.json`, keeps `history.db` (local data is the
+user's, and its origin lets a reconnect resume). With every job cancelled it
+releases the upload tables' rows (batches, members, session scopes; job rows,
+the origin and exclusions stay), truncates the write-ahead log, and removes
+`collector.log`, its rotated logs and the run reports. JSON:
+`{"bridge_version":1,"disconnected":true}`. After this `installs` no longer
+lists the directory.
+
+### 3.10 `agent-relay-probe compact <target> --json`
+
+Releases settled batch receipts. Pending and unacknowledged batches are
+untouched, so it is safe while the collector runs. An install with no live
+job releases every upload row, as `disconnect` does. JSON:
+`{"bridge_version":1,"removed_records":42}`.
+
+### 3.11 Tests and docs
+
+Unit tests next to the existing probe tests (clap parsing of every new command,
+JSON shapes, paused cycle is healthy, `selected` mode excludes new sessions,
+include regenerates and keeps `selected.json`). CI tests the crate with
+`cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked`.
+
+### 3.12 `agent-relay-probe reclaim --json`
+
+Releases what decommissioned installs (directories with no `config.json`) no
+longer need, so `installs` can stay a pure read. The apps call it once per
+launch, after discovery and without waiting for it. There is no client
+deadline: opening a store an older build left can migrate it, which commits
+only at the end, so a kill would redo the migration every launch. A failure is
+ignored and the next launch continues. Setup reconnecting a decommissioned
+directory waits (up to 10 minutes) for a pass holding its locks instead of
+failing; a live install still fails fast.
+
+- Each decommissioned install gets one bounded pass per call, under
+  `desktop.lock` and `collector.lock` (a busy install is left for a later
+  call): open the store as its owner, which rebuilds one still on the export
+  journal, and release one page (10,000) of settled receipts.
+- A pass that releases nothing writes `reclaimed_v1.json` beside the lock files,
+  recording the size, modification time and inode of `history.db` and
+  `history.db-wal`. Later calls skip the directory while a `stat` still matches,
+  so the residue costs a directory-entry check rather than a database open.
+- The marker invalidates itself: a reconnect or disconnect writes the store,
+  which changes what it recorded, so setup never needs to clear it. Its only
+  allowed failure is a wasted open (a checkpoint, say), never a skipped
+  reclaim. A store written within the last 2 s is not marked, and neither is a
+  pass that released anything, so a marker always follows a pass that found
+  nothing.
+- The name is versioned: when reclamation learns to release something new, the
+  next name re-examines every directory the old marker skipped.
+
+JSON: `{"bridge_version":1,"examined":3,"skipped":2,"reclaimed_records":10000,"remaining":1}`.
+`examined` counts decommissioned installs with a store, `skipped` those whose
+marker matched, `remaining` those a later call still has work for.
+
+## 4. macOS app architecture (`macos/`)
+
+- SwiftPM package `macos/Package.swift` (swift-tools 5.9): the app target
+  `RelayDesktop`, the library `RelayDesktopCore` (bridge client and view-model
+  helpers), and `RelayDesktopTests` (the bridge client and view models against
+  an in-process fake core). Deployment target macOS 13 (Ventura): needed for
+  `MenuBarExtra` and `SMAppService`. No third-party dependencies.
+- Bundle identifier `com.agentrelay.desktop`, display name **Agent Relay**,
+  `LSUIElement = false` (Dock and menu-bar access), `CFBundleShortVersionString` stamped by
+  CI from the release version, `NSHumanReadableCopyright`.
+- The app is a thin SwiftUI client of the relay core, which launchd runs as
+  the LaunchAgent `Contents/Library/LaunchAgents/com.agentrelay.desktop.core.plist`
+  (`Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper relay serve`). The bundle layout, the
+  modules and the lifecycle are in [`macos/README.md`](../macos/README.md) and
+  [`relay-core.md`](relay-core.md).
+- All user-facing strings in plain English, no jargon.
+- Logging: `os.Logger(subsystem: "com.agentrelay.desktop", category: …)`.
+- Every network call, history upload and inbound message included, is the
+  core's; the app makes none.
+
+### 4.1 Linux app architecture (`probe/src/linux_app`)
+
+- A native GTK 4 application in Rust (`agent-relay`, the probe crate's `gtk`
+  feature) with a StatusNotifierItem tray menu. Closing the window keeps the
+  process and tray controls running.
+- It is a thin client of the relay core ([relay-core.md](relay-core.md)):
+  `linux_app::bridge` speaks the bridge with the contract registry's own
+  types, `linux_app::models` holds the wording, relative times and filters,
+  and `linux_app::ui` draws. Sign-in, uploads, delivery, messaging, fleet, telemetry and
+  launch at login are core methods.
+- The main window has the same sign-in, Sessions, Agents, Workspace, Settings
+  and Account flows. XDG autostart (`login_item.set`) replaces
+  `SMAppService`; a registered desktop entry handles `agentrelay://` and
+  `agentrelay-dev://` links, which the core parses (`links.parse`).
+- The bundled architecture-specific helper is the core. The app connects to
+  the running core, or hosts one with `--exit-on-stdin-eof`; the systemd user
+  unit runs `relay serve --headless`. Development names another with
+  `RELAY_DESKTOP_PROBE`.
+- `scripts/build-probe.sh` builds the x64/arm64 glibc helper.
+  `scripts/build-linux.sh` creates a relocatable tree, `.tar.gz`, and `.deb`.
+  CI runs the unit and GTK tests under Xvfb against a fake core, a GTK startup
+  test, and an end-to-end test of the real core binary driven by the app's
+  bridge client, for both architectures, on Ubuntu 22.04 (GTK 4.6).
+
+## 5. State machine (app)

+
+Errors never crash the app: a failed command surfaces its stderr sentence in
+the panel ("Needs attention") and the supervisor keeps polling.
+
+## 6. Packaging and CI/CD
+
+Scripts (bash, `set -euo pipefail`, shellcheck-clean), run on macOS runners:
+
+- `scripts/build-probe.sh --target <triple> --version X.Y.Z --out DIR`
+  - `cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --release --locked --bin agent-relay-probe --target <triple>`
+    with `AGENT_RELAY_PROBE_VERSION` set, so `--version` and `status --json`
+    report the desktop release; write the binary, a `.sha256` naming
+    `agent-relay-probe`, and `probe-version.txt`. Run the bridge check when
+    the target matches the host.
+- `scripts/build-app.sh --arch arm64|x64 --version X.Y.Z --probe DIR --out DIR`
+  - `swift build -c release --arch <arm64|x86_64>` in `macos/`, assemble the
+    bundle layout from §4, render `AppIcon.icns` (`scripts/render-icon.swift`
+    draws the mark with CoreGraphics into 16…1024 px PNGs → `iconutil`),
+    write `Info.plist` from `macos/Info.plist.template` (substituting version
+    and build), then sign:
+    - if `CSC_LINK` + `CSC_KEY_PASSWORD` are set: import the base64 `.p12`
+      into a temporary keychain and select its Developer ID identity,
+      `codesign --deep --options runtime --timestamp` the helper then the app
+      (hardened runtime, entitlements file with nothing unusual), and if
+      `APPLE_API_KEY_BASE64` + `APPLE_API_KEY_ID` + `APPLE_API_ISSUER` are set,
+      `xcrun notarytool submit --wait` the zipped app with the decoded `.p8`
+      and `xcrun stapler staple`.
+    - else ad-hoc sign (`codesign --force --deep -s -`) and print a clear
+      notice that the artefact will trigger Gatekeeper's unidentified-developer
+      prompt (README documents right-click → Open).
+- `scripts/package-dmg.sh --app "…/Agent Relay.app" --out FILE.dmg` using
+  `hdiutil` with an `/Applications` symlink; also emit `FILE.dmg.sha256`.
+
+Workflows:
+
+- `.github/workflows/desktop-ci.yml` — on `pull_request` and `push` to `main`: matrix
+  `{macos-15 → arm64, macos-15-intel → x64}`: `swift build`, `swift test`,
+  `build-probe.sh`,
+  `build-app.sh` (ad-hoc signed), upload the `.app` zip as an artifact;
+  `shellcheck` on `scripts/*.sh`; `windows` job on `windows-latest` running
+  `dotnet build windows/RelayDesktop.Windows.csproj` (placeholder).
+- `.github/workflows/desktop-release.yml` — on push of tag `desktop-v*` (and
+  `workflow_dispatch`, with an optional `version` override of the `YYYY.MM.N`
+  default): same build matrix, signed/notarized when
+  secrets exist, then one job that downloads both DMGs and publishes a GitHub
+  Release `v<version>` with assets:
+  - `AgentRelay-<version>-macOS-arm64.dmg`, `AgentRelay-<version>-macOS-x64.dmg`
+  - stable names for the website: `AgentRelay-macOS-arm64.dmg`,
+    `AgentRelay-macOS-x64.dmg` (identical files), each with `.sha256`
+  - `RelayDesktop-Windows-placeholder.zip` is **not** published (placeholder).
+  Use `softprops/action-gh-release@v2` (or `gh release create`), generate
+  release notes, `permissions: contents: write` only on that job. The probe
+  is built from `probe/` at the release version, recorded in
+  `Resources/probe-version.txt` and in the release body.
+- Windows placeholder `windows/`: `RelayDesktop.Windows.csproj`
+  (`net8.0-windows`, `UseWPF`), `App.xaml(.cs)`, `MainWindow.xaml(.cs)` showing
+  the Agent Relay name and "Windows support is coming soon", plus
+  `windows/README.md` describing the planned parity (tray icon, sign in, probe
+  supervision via the same bridge). Must build with `dotnet build`.
+- Top-level `README.md`: what the app does, download links (the stable release
+  URLs), first-run/Gatekeeper note, how the probe is bundled and installed,
+  development (`swift build`, `RELAY_DESKTOP_PROBE`), release process (dispatch
+  for the `YYYY.MM.N` default, or tag `desktop-vYYYY.MM.N`), required secrets/vars table.
+
+## 7. agentrelay.com
+
+- New route `web/app/download/page.tsx` ("Download Agent Relay for Mac"):
+  two buttons — *Download for Apple silicon* →
+  `https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/latest/download/AgentRelay-macOS-arm64.dmg`,
+  *Download for Intel Mac* → `…/AgentRelay-macOS-x64.dmg`; a short "How to tell
+  which Mac you have" note (Apple menu → About This Mac); "Windows: coming
+  soon"; link to the release page and to the Teams sign-up. Metadata +
+  `alternates.canonical`, add to `app/sitemap.ts`.
+- URLs live in `web/lib/desktop-downloads.ts` with a vitest in `web/lib/test/`.
+- "Download" link in `SiteNav` (desktop + mobile) and in the footer Products
+  column. Reuse existing CSS modules/classes (`landing.module.css` CTA styles)
+  rather than inventing a new design system.
+
+## 8. Out of scope for this pass
+
+Multiple workspaces per machine, Windows functionality, auto-update
+(Sparkle), Homebrew cask, per-session upload progress bars, an in-app browser
+for Google sign-in.
+
+## 9. Cloud message receiver (multiplayer)
+
+A second, independent pipe alongside the probe's history upload: the cloud
+service delivers messages **into** a running Codex thread on this Mac, so a
+web user can post into another user's local Codex session ("multiplayer").
+The desktop side is the relay core's `relay::outbox` (messages, outbox store,
+sharing policy, inbox and Codex delivery), `relay::mailbox` and
+`relay::incoming`, with their tests;
+the cloud side does not exist yet, so every endpoint below is **PROPOSED**.
+This section is that contract.
+
+```
+cloud ──(websocket / poll)──▶ CodexInbox.receive ─▶ [dedupe] ─▶ [pause] ─▶ [rate limit] ─▶ [sharing policy]
+                                                                                  │
+                                                        deny ──────────────────▶ ack: rejected
+                                                        hold ──▶ CodexOutbox(held) ─▶ ack: held_for_approval
+                                                        deliver ▶ CodexOutbox(pending) ─▶ ack: queued
+CodexDelivery worker ─▶ CodexBridge (Codex IPC socket) ─▶ ack: delivered ─▶ completed/aborted/failed/expired
+```
+
+The desktop transport, durable policy, application lifecycle and sharing controls
+are now implemented.
+The endpoint descriptions below remain proposed; no cloud service is deployed
+by this repository.
+
+### 9.1 Transport
+
+The relay core (`relay::mailbox`) connects to the cloud over a WebSocket,
+authenticated with the person's Agent Relay session, never a probe-issued
+credential. It calls the Cloud room-session endpoint with that session, then
+activates the returned per-device participant at
+`{relaycastBaseUrl}/cloud/api/v1/desktop/session`. The returned mailbox origin,
+scope, paths and expiry are persisted separately from probe identity. The
+Cloud counterpart is deployed separately. Missing/expired credentials fail closed.
+
+- PROPOSED: `wss://{site}/cloud/api/v1/desktop/messages?account_id=ID&workspace_id=ID`,
+  one frame per `CodexInboundMessage` JSON object (§9.2) from the cloud.
+  The desktop batches upstream acks over HTTP for both downstream transports,
+  so HTTP acceptance, rather than a successful socket write, confirms them.
+- **Polling fallback**, same message shape, for when the socket can't stay
+  open (app backgrounded, network blocks websockets): PROPOSED
+  `GET {site}/cloud/api/v1/desktop/messages?since=ID` returning a JSON array
+  of `CodexInboundMessage`; acks post back with PROPOSED
+  `POST {site}/cloud/api/v1/desktop/acks` (array of `CodexInboundAck`). The
+  app picks whichever transport is up; both feed the same
+  `CodexInbox.receive`, so behaviour is identical either way.
+- **Reconnect:** exponential backoff (start ~1s, cap ~30s, jitter — match the
+  probe's existing retry posture rather than inventing a new one). On
+  (re)connect the app sends the id of the last message it durably queued
+  (tracked alongside the outbox) as `since`; the cloud replays anything
+  newer. Redelivery of an already-seen id is always safe: `CodexInbox.receive`
+  re-acks the message's current state instead of re-enqueueing when
+  `CodexOutbox` already has that id, and `CodexOutbox.enqueue` itself is
+  `insert or ignore` on `id`. The cloud may therefore retry sends freely
+  without a fresh handshake.
+
+### 9.2 Downstream message shape (cloud → desktop)
+
+Exactly `CodexInboundMessage` (`probe/src/relay/outbox/messages.rs`). Decoding is
+lenient about unknown fields, so the cloud can add some later without
+breaking older apps:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg_9f2c…",
+  "thread_id": "12345678-1234-1234-1234-123456789012",
+  "text": "can you also check the retry path?",
+  "sender": {"id": "usr_44…", "display_name": "Priya K", "email": "priya@example.com"},
+  "created_at": "2026-09-19T18:04:02Z",
+  "expires_at": "2026-09-20T18:04:02Z"
+}
+```
+
+`id` is chosen by the cloud and is the durable outbox idempotency key.
+Redelivery finds that existing row or its retained tombstone. The window-socket
+route also supplies it as `clientUserMessageId`; the default queue route uses a
+hashed attribution reference to find the turn in the rollout (§9.6).
+
+`expires_at` is optional. The deadline is the earliest of that value,
+`created_at + CodexDelivery.defaultLifetime` (24h), and `now + 24h`.
+Using creation time prevents an old replay from receiving a fresh lifetime.
+A message that
+outlives its lifetime while waiting for a deliverable thread settles to the
+`expired` ack (§9.3) rather than sitting forever.
+
+Both `CodexInboundMessage` and its nested `Sender` declare explicit snake_case
+`CodingKeys` (`thread_id`, `created_at`, `expires_at`, `sender.display_name`),
+so the wire format is snake_case throughout and independent of any decoder
+key strategy.
+
+### 9.3 Upstream ack shape (desktop → cloud)
+
+Exactly `CodexInboundAck` (`probe/src/relay/outbox/messages.rs`), one per message id.
+The outbox journals each ack in the same SQLite transaction as its state
+change. The receiver posts ordered batches of at most 100; a batch boundary
+survives relaunch and lost responses, while newer transitions wait behind it.
+Redelivery re-acks the stored current state without enqueueing again. Compact
+final-status tombstones retain dedupe after message content is pruned:
+
+```json
+{"id": "msg_9f2c…", "status": "queued", "reply": null, "error": null, "at": "2026-09-19T18:04:02Z"}
+```
+
+`status` is one of:
+
+| status            | meaning                                                           | what the web sender should show |
+|-------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------|
+| `queued`          | accepted, durably stored, will deliver once the thread is idle     | "waiting" |
+| `held_for_approval`  | shared thread is in `hold` mode; waiting on the local user         | "waiting for approval" |
+| `delivered`       | a Codex turn has started for it                                    | "running" |
+| `completed`       | Codex finished the turn; `reply` carries its answer                 | "answered" (show `reply`) |
+| `aborted`         | the turn was interrupted before finishing                          | "interrupted" |
+| `failed`          | Codex refused it after retries (`error` says why)                  | "failed" (show `error`) |
+| `expired`         | it waited past its lifetime for a thread that never became deliverable | "timed out" |
+| `rejected`        | refused before queueing at all — not shared, full-access blocked, unknown thread, paused, rate limited (`error` says which) | "not delivered" (show `error`) |
+
+`CodexInboundAck.Status` overrides the one multi-word case
+(`case heldForApproval = "held_for_approval"`) so every wire value is
+snake_case, consistent with the rest of this document.
+
+### 9.4 Authorization and safety
+
+A cloud message runs as a prompt inside an agent on the user's own machine,
+under that thread's Codex permissions — and some Codex threads run with
+`sandbox_policy: danger-full-access` (no sandbox at all,
+`CodexBridge.isUnrestricted`). Treat every layer below as required, not
+optional, because the failure mode is a stranger's text executing with the
+local user's file/shell access:
+
+- **(a) Explicit per-thread opt-in, enforced locally, fail-closed.**
+  `CodexSharingPolicy` denies by default: `decide(threadID:isUnrestricted:)`
+  returns `.deny` for any thread with no `CodexThreadShare` on file, full
+  stop. Cloud-side workspace or channel membership is never sufficient by
+  itself — a thread is only reachable once *this Mac's* user has shared it
+  here, and `unshare` takes effect on the very next message. The app loads
+  `CodexSharingPolicy(storeURL:)` from an account/workspace/site-scoped file.
+  Grants are persisted atomically before becoming active; unreadable/corrupt
+  policy prevents startup. Settings exposes the local opt-ins and approvals.
+- **(b) A second opt-in for unrestricted threads.** `CodexThreadShare` has an
+  `allowsUnrestricted` flag separate from sharing itself. In `auto` mode, a
+  thread whose sandbox is off (`isUnrestricted == true`) is downgraded to
+  `hold` unless `allowsUnrestricted` is also set — `isUnrestricted` defaults
+  to `true`, the cautious answer, whenever the app can't read the thread's
+  policy at all. Sharing a thread does not, by itself, grant unattended
+  access to a full-access thread.
+- **(c) Hold vs. auto per thread.** `CodexThreadShare.Mode`: `hold` asks the
+  local user before every single message regardless of sender; `auto`
+  delivers without asking, subject to (b).
+- **(d) Sender attribution is prepended, not decorative.** Every delivered
+  message is rewritten by `CodexInbox.attributed(_:)` before it reaches
+  Codex: `"[via Agent Relay — from \(sender.displayName)]\n\n\(text)"`. Codex
+  shows an injected message identically to one the user typed otherwise, so
+  this line is the only thing that stops the local user — and the model —
+  from reading a stranger's message as the user's own instruction.
+- **(e) An instant pause control.** `CodexInbox.isPaused` is checked first,
+  before rate limiting or the sharing policy: while paused, every inbound
+  new message is rejected immediately with `"incoming messages are paused"`.
+  The refusal is stored for dedupe/audit but never enters the delivery queue.
+  The menu bar's **Pause uploads** control (§2) now gates inbound delivery
+  immediately, including already-pending messages. Previously handed-over
+  turns cannot be recalled; their outcomes still settle.
+- **(f) Rate limits per sender and per thread.** `CodexInbox` enforces 30
+  messages per `(senderID, threadID)` pair per 60s window
+  (`CodexOutbox.enqueuedCount`, counting all states, not just delivered
+  ones), ahead of the sharing-policy check — a rate-limited sender is
+  rejected before the local sharing decision is even consulted.
+- **(g) Audit trail.** `CodexOutbox` durably records, per message: sender id
+  and name, the exact text, every state transition with timestamps
+  (`enqueued_at`, `last_attempt_at`, `updated_at`), attempts, and the final
+  `reply`/`last_error` — in
+  `~/Library/Application Support/com.agentrelay.desktop/incoming/<scope>/codex-outbox.sqlite`.
+  The transition journal also drives upstream acknowledgements. Unconfirmed
+  rows remain until acknowledged; compact dedupe tombstones retain final IDs.
+  Finished content is kept for `CodexDelivery.finishedRetention` (7 days) before
+  pruning, so "who sent what, when, and what happened" is answerable locally
+  for at least a week without any cloud round-trip.
+
+### 9.5 Thread catalog (desktop → cloud)
+
+For the web UI to have anything to address, the app reports its shareable
+threads. `CodexBridge.recentThreads(limit:)` already reads
+`~/.codex/state_5.sqlite` for exactly this: `id`, `title` (first non-empty,
+non-tag line of the thread's raw title, truncated to 60 chars), `directory`
+(→ `projectName`, its last path component), `updatedAt`, restricted to
+`source = 'vscode'` rows (only threads a Codex window can own — a CLI-run
+thread has no window to receive a message, so it's excluded), newest first,
+default limit 20. `CodexBridge.openThreadIDs(among:)` separately reports
+which of those are *currently* owned by an open Codex window, i.e.
+deliverable right now versus merely known.
+
+The desktop periodically posts a replacement snapshot to PROPOSED
+`POST {site}/cloud/api/v1/desktop/threads`, listing `id`, `project`
+(`projectName`), `title`, `open`, `shared`, and `mode` (`hold|auto`). Only
+explicitly shared UUID threads leave the Mac, including an empty snapshot when
+all shares are revoked. The owner's local Settings catalog includes unshared
+threads for opting in. The cloud must also enforce catalog/member authorization;
+local sharing is rechecked even if the cloud's snapshot is stale.
+
+### 9.6 Delivery route: Codex's own queue (default)
+
+`CodexDelivery.route` defaults to `.queue`: messages go in with the public
+command `codex queue --thread <uuid> --message=<text>`
+(`CodexQueueBridge`, `CodexQueueCommand`). Codex keeps a durable per-thread
+queue (`~/.codex/queue_1.sqlite`, app-server methods `thread/queue/*`) that the
+desktop app's bundled server and every terminal `codex` share; whichever has the
+thread loaded runs the message as a user turn once the thread is idle. Verified
+live 2026-09-20 against a desktop-app thread (open in a window) and a terminal
+thread. The window-routing socket of §9 (`CodexBridge`, private and
+version-pinned) remains as `.windowSocket`, used only when no `codex` binary
+with `queue` is found.
+
+- **Which binary:** `RELAY_DESKTOP_CODEX`, then the one inside the desktop app
+  (`/Applications/ChatGPT.app/Contents/Resources/codex` — the same build that
+  reads the queue for app threads), then `~/.local/bin`, Homebrew.
+- **Finding the turn again:** Codex assigns its own `client_id` to a queued
+  message and does not record the queue item id, so the attribution line carries
+  a reference — `[via Agent Relay — from Alice · ref 1a2b3c4d5e6f]`, twelve hex
+  digits of SHA-256(message id) (`RelayMessageRef`). `CodexRolloutSummary.turnByMessageRef`
+  maps it to the turn; outcome and reply then settle exactly as before.
+- **States:** after `codex queue` succeeds the message stays `sending`, acked
+  `queued`; it becomes `delivered` only when the session file shows the turn
+  started, then `completed`/`aborted`. A `sending` message still present in
+  Codex's queue is left alone (never re-sent); if the queue can't be read that
+  counts as still waiting. Past its expiry it is acked `failed`.
+- **Never re-send on doubt.** Codex takes a message off its queue a moment
+  before the session file records it, so "in neither place" must persist for
+  45 s (`missingGrace`) before a message counts as lost and is retried; an
+  expired message is failed, never retried; a timed-out `codex queue` is waited
+  on until it has really exited. Only a `codex` that answers `queue --help` is
+  used (checked once per build; a probe that times out is not remembered and
+  is asked again); otherwise the window socket delivers. Each send records the
+  route it took (`route` column), and a send in doubt is settled by *that*
+  route's rules — a message sitting in Codex's queue is never re-sent through
+  the socket just because the `codex` binary has since gone.
+- **Thread ids must be UUIDs** (`CodexQueueCommand.isThreadID`): `codex queue`
+  also matches session *names*, which a cloud-supplied value must never do.
+- **Open:** whether a thread that is not loaded anywhere ever runs a queued
+  message (it presumably waits and fires when next opened — the CLI has no
+  `delete`, only the app-server API does, so an expired message can linger in
+  Codex's queue); text travels in argv here, since `codex queue` has no stdin form.
+
+## 10. Claude sessions (multiplayer)
+
+The same receiver, for the Claude desktop app: a web teammate's message lands
+in a Claude session the local user has open. Implemented in the relay core
+(`relay::claude` and `relay::outbox`'s Claude delivery, with their tests) up to
+the same `inbox.receive` / `inbox.sendAck` seam as §9.
+
+### 10.1 Mechanism (researched 2026-09-19, Claude desktop 2.2553.1, CLI 2.1.27x)
+
+What was found, so nobody re-walks the dead ends:
+
+- **The desktop app exposes nothing local to inject into.** No listening
+  socket or port. Its sessions that work on a local folder are **cloud
+  sessions** (`session_…` / `cse_…` ids): the model loop runs on Anthropic's
+  side, and the app only spawns `claude --attach-serve cse_…` locally to serve
+  the folder's tools. Input never passes through this Mac. Plain chat
+  conversations are server-side too.
+- **The way in is Claude's own command line:**
+  `claude --print --cloud <session id>` with the message on stdin "sends the
+  prompt to an existing cloud session" under the user's existing Claude
+  sign-in, prints `Sent to cloud session.` and exits 0 (~1.5 s). It works on a
+  session that is already open, needs nothing launched specially, edits no
+  config, and the app never touches Claude credentials. Verified live: the
+  message appears in the desktop conversation as a user message and Claude
+  answers it.
+- **Session discovery:** the desktop app lists its folder sessions in
+  `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/local-agent-mode-sessions/<account>/<org>/remote-session-spaces.json`
+  (`{entries: [{sessionId, folders, memoryEnabled}]}`), read-only
+  (`ClaudeBridge.sessions()`).
+- Rejected: **channels** (`--channels`, research preview) — supported, but
+  only for sessions *launched* with the flag, so never an already-open one,
+  and would need the user's MCP config or a plugin install. **Deep links**
+  (`claude://code/new?q=`, `claude://cowork/new?q=`) only start *new*
+  sessions. **The sessions HTTP API** (`/v1/sessions/{id}/events`) would mean
+  lifting the user's Claude OAuth token from another app's storage: not done,
+  by design. **UI automation**: fragile, no delivery signal.
+- Not covered yet: terminal `claude` sessions. They have a local peer inbox
+  (`~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json` → `messagingSocketPath`, NDJSON with a
+  token from a 0600 key file), but it is a private, fast-moving protocol whose
+  messages arrive as "from another session" (and may be held for local
+  approval), not as user turns. A possible second backend behind
+  `ClaudeDelivery.send`; deliberately left out of this pass.
+
+### 10.2 What is shared with §9 and what differs
+
+Reused unchanged: `CodexOutbox` (own database file `claude-outbox.sqlite`; its
+`threadID` holds the Claude session id), `CodexSharingPolicy`, `CodexInboundAck`
+(§9.3) and `CodexInboundMessage.Sender`. Claude analogues: `ClaudeInboundMessage`,
+`ClaudeInbox` (same pipeline as `CodexInbox`: dedupe → session id check → pause →
+rate limit 30/min per sender+session → sharing policy → queue, attribution
+prefix, authorization re-checked at delivery) and `ClaudeDelivery`.
+
+Differences, all from one fact — **Claude confirms the hand-off and nothing
+after it** (the send mode refuses `--output-format stream-json`, and turn state
+is only on the OAuth-protected events API):
+
+- **The send uses the documented machine-readable result.**
+  `claude --print --cloud <id> --output-format json` returns
+  `{"ok":true,"session_id":…,"url":…}` or
+  `{"ok":false,"session_id":…,"error":…}` (verified against the CLI
+  2026-09-20). Argument and configuration errors print plain text with no
+  JSON, and an older `claude` may not know the flag, so its
+  `Sent to cloud session.` line is still accepted as a fallback.
+- **Acks end at `delivered`.** No `completed`, never a `reply`. The cloud must
+  treat `delivered` as the terminal success status for Claude targets. (The
+  outbox row is stored `completed` so the session's next message is freed.)
+- **At-most-once.** A send cut short — timeout (60 s), or the app quitting
+  mid-send — cannot be checked afterwards, so it is acked `failed` ("may or
+  may not have reached the session") rather than re-sent: a teammate's prompt
+  running twice is worse than not running. Only failures Claude itself
+  reported before accepting are retried (3 attempts, exponential backoff).
+  Archived/unknown session and "not enabled for your account" fail at once.
+- **No idle gate.** Per-session order is preserved (one send at a time, in
+  queue order); a backlog drains immediately and Claude's side queues turns.
+- **No `claude` command line installed:** messages stay `pending`, attempts
+  unspent, until it appears or they expire.
+- **`isUnrestricted` is always true.** The app cannot see a cloud session's
+  permission mode, so per §9.4's fail-closed rule an `auto` share delivers
+  without asking only with `allowsUnrestricted`; otherwise messages hold.
+
+Ack and authorization rules the inbox keeps (each from PR #2 review):
+
+- **`sending` acks as `queued`.** `delivered` is final to the cloud, so a
+  redelivery that arrives mid-send must not claim it before Claude confirms.
+- **Acks are ordered.** Storing a message wakes the worker; `ackLock` makes the
+  first ack (`queued` / `held_for_approval`) and the worker's acks serial, so
+  the cloud never sees `delivered` followed by `queued`.
+- **State-dependent refusals are remembered.** Paused, rate-limited and
+  not-shared refusals are stored as `rejected` rows
+  (`CodexOutbox.recordRejected`), so a repeat of the id after the pause ends or
+  the session is shared replays the rejection rather than delivering a message
+  its sender was told was refused. They count toward the sender's rate window.
+  An invalid session id is refused without a record: it can never become valid.
+- **Delivery re-runs the whole sharing decision**, not just "is it shared":
+  `deny` → `rejected`; `hold` → the message goes back to `held` and acks
+  `held_for_approval` — unless the local user already approved that message
+  (`approved_at`), which stays cleared to go.
+
+The Codex receiver now also implements durable refusals, ordered acknowledgements
+and full delivery authorization rechecks.
+
+Safety specific to this route: the session id comes from the cloud and ends up
+on a command line, so `ClaudeSessionID` admits only `session_`/`cse_` + 8–64
+ASCII alphanumerics — at the inbox *and* again at delivery. Anything else could
+be read as a flag, or as the description of a **new** cloud session. Message
+text goes on stdin, never argv. The send runs from a neutral working directory
+so no project settings or hooks load.
+
+### 10.3 Downstream message shape (cloud → desktop)
+
+PROPOSED, mirroring §9.2 with `session_id` in place of `thread_id`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "id": "msg_…",
+  "session_id": "session_01…",
+  "text": "…",
+  "sender": {"id": "u_…", "display_name": "Alice", "email": "alice@example.com"},
+  "created_at": "2026-09-19T04:00:00Z",
+  "expires_at": "2026-09-19T05:00:00Z"
+}
+```
+
+Acks are §9.3 verbatim. How one websocket frame says "Codex" vs "Claude" is
+for the transport to settle (PROPOSED: a `target: "codex" | "claude"` field on
+the envelope; until then the presence of `session_id` vs `thread_id` is
+unambiguous).
+
+### 10.4 Session catalog (desktop → cloud)
+
+PROPOSED, alongside §9.5: report `ClaudeBridge.sessions()` — `id`, `project`
+(`displayName`, the first folder's last path component), `shared`/`mode` from
+the sharing policy — under the same only-offer-shared-sessions rule.
+
+### 10.5 Requirements and open items
+
+- The `claude` command line, signed in to the same account as the desktop app
+  (`ClaudeBridge.locateClaude()` checks `RELAY_DESKTOP_CLAUDE`, then
+  `~/.local/bin`, `~/.claude/local`, Homebrew paths — a Finder-launched app
+  has no shell `PATH`). Sending to existing cloud sessions is account-gated by
+  Anthropic.
+- Open: surfacing Claude sessions and held messages in the menu-bar UI;
+  persisting shares (same gap as §9); a supported way to read turn outcome,
+  which would restore `completed` + `reply`.

+# Plan: relay-desktop owns the probe
+
+## Boundary
+
+| Owner | Scope | Visibility |
+|---|---|---|
+| `relayhistory` (`ai-hist`, `provider-sources`) | Where sessions live and what their files look like; parsing; the local SQLite database; the CLI, SDK and MCP server that query it; change capture over that database | Public |
+| `relay-desktop` (`probe/`) | The always-on daemon: when to scan, what to hydrate, sign-in, the upload queue, retries, transport to Agent Relay Cloud, and the JSON bridge the desktop apps drive | Private |
+
+The open-source core has no daemon, credentials or uploads. The daemon depends on
+the published `ai-hist` crate and nothing else from `relayhistory`.
+
+`@relayhistory/capture` (npm) and its Rust crate `relayhistory-plugin` are
+deprecated. No repository outside `relayhistory` depends on them; the probe is
+their only real consumer.
+
+## The `ai-hist` contract
+
+The daemon uses `ai-hist`'s public embedder API, [`SessionStore`], and nothing
+behind `unstable-internal`:
+
+| Need | `SessionStore` |
+|---|---|
+| Cheap catalog of every session | `discover` (stage 1) |
+| Full index of one session | `hydrate` |
+| Full sweep | `sync` |
+| React to provider writes | `watch` |
+| Catalog and one session's evidence | `sessions`, `session` |
+| What to upload next | `changes_since` with a named consumer cursor, `head_revision` |
+| Stop promptly, report progress | a cancellation token and progress callback on `discover`, `sync` and `hydrate` (stage 1) |
+
+The change feed reads evidence where it lives: no payload copies, no retention
+cap, and no trigger that can abort an ingest write. The `export` feature's
+upload journal — its payload copies, its retained-byte cap and its hooks in
+ingest — is removed once the daemon reads the feed. Local NDJSON export stays.
+
+## Existing installs
+
+Alpha installs rebuild: the first run of the ported daemon discards the old
+upload tables and uploads the selected sessions again from the change feed's
+start. Sign-in, the sharing mode and the selected sessions carry over.
+
+The receiver keys a record by `(org, workspace, origin_id, record_id)` and
+replaces it only when the new `revision` is higher; a lower revision is
+acknowledged and ignored. The rebuilt install therefore keeps its `origin_id`
+(`delivery_state.origin_id`) and `record_id` scheme, and numbers revisions above
+the highest the old probe issued (`sqlite_sequence` for `delivery_journal`).
+
+## Stages
+
+Each stage is one PR per repository and leaves every install working.
+
+### 0. Unblock uploads (done)
+
+- `relayhistory#256`: the probe accepts receiver fields it does not know, and a
+  new build retries a blocked job once.
+
+### 1. Complete `SessionStore` for the daemon (`relayhistory`)
+
+- `SessionStore::discover`: the shallow catalog sweep, without hydrating.
+- Cancellation and progress for `discover`, `sync` and `hydrate`.
+- Release `ai-hist` to crates.io. (`relayhistory#257` merged; release pending.)
+
+### 2a. Move the daemon (`relay-desktop`)
+
+- `probe/` is the upload crate imported with its history, depending on
+  `ai-hist` pinned to a `relayhistory` commit until stage 1's release.
+- CI and releases build it with `scripts/build-probe.sh`, stamped with the
+  desktop release version; CI runs its tests.
+- Unchanged: the binary name `agent-relay-probe`, the state directory
+  `~/.agentworkforce/probe/<sha256(site,account,workspace)>/`, stage auth files,
+  the upload records, and the bridge JSON in `docs/plan.md` section 3.
+
+### 2b. Port uploads to the change feed (`relay-desktop`)
+
+Two PRs, in order.
+
+**2b-1. The probe reads `ai-hist` through `SessionStore`.** Capture, inventory,
+hydration, catalog reads and progress use `SessionStore` (`sync`, `discover`,
+`hydrate`, `sessions`, `session`, `StopToken`, `ProgressObserver`). Modules the
+probe binary cannot reach are deleted with their tests: `outbox`, `turns`,
+`convergence`, `relaycast`, `replay`, `legacy_cli`, `compat`, `helper`,
+`source`, and the `relayhistory-plugin` bin. Delivery still reads the `export`
+journal.
+
+**2b-2. Uploads come from the change feed.**
+
+- A job's position is a feed `Watermark`. A new all-sources job drains from
+  `Watermark::START`, which is its bootstrap; afterwards it resumes from its
+  cursor. Snapshot bounds, shadow preimages and journal subscriptions go away.
+- A selected-sessions job filters the feed by membership. Adding a member
+  backfills that session with a session-filtered drain
+  (`ChangeQuery::session`) from `START` to the head at the time it was added.
+- A record is built from a `Change`:
+  - `record_id` is the SHA-256 of `[kind, ...key]` as compact JSON, matching the
+    journal's `json_array` key.
+  - `revision` is `revision_base + change.revision`.
+  - `revision_id` is the SHA-256 of `origin:record_id:revision`.
+  - `payload` is `change.columns` (every stored column except `revision`), or
+    `null` for a delete.
+- The daemon owns its state: `origin_id` and `revision_base`, which must stay
+  above every revision this origin has sent. A feed epoch change (a replaced
+  database) moves the base above the highest revision sent.
+- Every sharing mode uploads every feed kind. Consent is the daemon's filter:
+  membership, `delivery_exclusions`, prompts with no session only when
+  everything is shared, and a relationship only when both its sessions are
+  shared (or its child is unlinked). They are checked when a batch is prepared and again at
+  dispatch (`validate_dispatch`), the same two gates as today.
+- There is no retention cap and no journal compaction. `status --json` drops
+  `retention`, so the app hides **Compact now**. `compact` keeps only receipt
+  compaction.
+- The dependency is `ai-hist` from crates.io, with neither `export` nor
+  `unstable-internal` enabled.
+
+**Rebuilding an install.** On the first run, the daemon finds the `export`
+journal schema in `history.db`. In one transaction it:
+
+1. records `origin_id` (from `delivery_state`) and
+   `revision_base = sqlite_sequence['delivery_journal']`;
+2. drops the capture triggers (`delivery_<table>_{insert,update,delete}` on
+   the twelve evidence tables, and the cap/count triggers on
+   `delivery_journal` and `delivery_batches`), which otherwise keep writing
+   and can abort ingest at the cap;
+3. drops the journal, shadow, bootstrap-bound, subscription and export-page
+   tables, and every unsent batch;
+4. resets each live job to `START` (and each member's backfill), keeping its
+   sharing mode, members and exclusions.
+
+It then uploads the selected sessions again, at revisions above everything
+this origin sent, so the receiver replaces every record.
+
+### 3. Deprecate `@relayhistory/capture` (`relayhistory`)
+
+- Publish a final `@relayhistory/capture` and platform packages whose entry
+  points fail with a message naming the Agent Relay desktop app, then
+  `npm deprecate` every `@relayhistory/capture*` package.
+- Remove the `export` upload journal from `ai-hist`: capture triggers,
+  retained-byte accounting and the retention error.
+- Remove `plugins/relayhistory/` (Rust crate and SDK), its CI and publish jobs,
+  `docs/agent-relay-probe.md`, `docs/history-delivery.md`, `docs/enable-cloud.md`
+  and the probe release artifacts.
+- The core SDK, CLI, native addon and MCP server drop `HISTORY_DELIVERY_MOVED`
+  and the optional `get_session_thread` plugin hook; uploads are simply not part
+  of the open-source surface.
+- `README.md` describes local history only, with one line pointing at the
+  desktop app for team uploads.
+
+### 4. Distribution (`agentrelay.com`, `cloud`)
+
+- `install.sh` installs the desktop app for the platform (macOS `.dmg`, Linux
+  package) from this repository's releases. Remove `stage-probe.mjs` and
+  `web/public/downloads/agent-relay-probe/`.
+- `cloud/scripts/dev.mjs`, `dev-desktop.mjs` and `test-probe-local.mjs` build the
+  probe from `relay-desktop`; `docs/teams-session-onboarding.md` says so.
+
+### 5. Daemon quality (`relay-desktop`)
+
+Defects observed on a production install, each its own PR once the code lives
+here:
+
+1. **Real failure detail.** Keep the receiver's error code and body and the
+   blocked verdict's cause; `status --json` reports them, and the app shows them.
+2. **Bounded logs.** Rotate `collector.log` by size; one line per failing source
+   per cycle, never one entry per session (an OpenCode failure wrote 44,588 ids
+   per cycle and grew the log to 10 GB).
+3. **Cheap status.** `status --json` answers from `runtime.json` and the
+   delivery tables without scanning history (5 s at 100% CPU on a 4 GB database);
+   the app never overlaps status calls.
+4. **Event-driven capture.** Use `SessionStore::watch` to hydrate
+   changed sessions instead of periodic full cycles; back off when idle.
+5. **Upload policy.** Batch while active, drain before sleep and quit, and
+   respect the receiver's `Retry-After`.
+
+## Decisions
+
+- **Legacy cloud commands** (`relayhistory-plugin replay`, `token`, relaycast
+  bridge): retired with `@relayhistory/capture`.
+
+## Open
+
+- **Headless Linux**: proposed — `install.sh` installs the Linux desktop
+  package, which bundles the probe, and no bare-probe download is offered.

+# Relay core
+
+The relay core is the desktop's entire non-UI runtime. It is Rust, it lives
+in the `agent-relay-probe` binary every desktop build already bundles and
+signs, and it runs as one long-lived daemon per user:
+
+```sh
+agent-relay-probe relay serve [--socket PATH] [--app-data-dir PATH] [--site-url URL] [--exit-on-stdin-eof] [--headless]
+```
+
+A relative `--socket` lives beside the default socket and a relative
+`--app-data-dir` beside the default data directory, so a launchd property
+list names them without `~`.
+
+The macOS app (SwiftUI) and the GTK app, which serves Linux and Windows
+(the same `agent-relay-desktop` program built for each), are thin native UIs. They
+render the core's state and send it commands over one bridge contract; they
+make no Relaycast, Cloud or broker requests, spawn no harness, and read no
+agent credentials. The Linux headless service and the Windows logon task are
+the daemon itself.

+
+## What stays in the UI
+
+The rule: code that draws pixels or calls a platform UI API stays in the app;
+everything else is in the core.
+
+| Concern | Where | Why |
+|---|---|---|
+| Views, menu bar / tray, windows, dialogs, clipboard | UI | Pixels and platform UI APIs |
+| Opening a browser (sign-in approval, integration connect links) | UI | `NSWorkspace` / `xdg-open` / `ShellExecute`. The core emits the URL on the `sign_in` event; the loopback OAuth receiver, PKCE and device-code polling are core |
+| Notifications | UI | `UserNotifications` / `Gio.Notification` / Windows toast notifications. The core emits `notify` events with the text |
+| macOS launch at login | UI | `SMAppService` is a platform API: `.agent` registers the core's LaunchAgent, `.mainApp` opens the app at login when the person chooses. Linux autostart is a `.desktop` file and is core (`login_item.set`) |
+| Windows launch at login | UI | The background service is a per-user logon task (Task Scheduler, through `schtasks`, no administrator rights) that runs `agent-relay-desktop.exe --headless`; the app registers it, off, for a per-user install and turns it on and off from Settings, as it does the systemd user unit on Linux |
+| Self-update | UI | It replaces the files the daemon runs from and relaunches the app, so it cannot run inside the daemon. macOS installs the DMG; a Linux per-user install unpacks the verified tarball beside the running version and repoints the systemd user unit, and a `.deb` install downloads the verified package for the package manager; a Windows per-user install unpacks the verified zip beside the running version and repoints the logon task |
+| Wording, relative times, search filters, layout of status | UI | Presentation. The core supplies typed state (`uploader.stage`, `needs_start`, timestamps), never display strings |
+| Deep-link delivery (`agentrelay://`) | UI receives, core parses | The platform hands the URL to the app; `links.parse` validates it |
+| PostHog telemetry | Core | One schema for both apps. The core records the operations it runs (sign-in, uploader commands, disconnect); the UI calls `telemetry.record` for UI-only ones; queueing, rate limits, identity and opt-out (`settings.set {"analytics_enabled"}`) are core |
+| Keychain (desktop mailbox credential) | Core | Not UI: `security-framework` on macOS, a 0600 file on Linux, the same file in the user profile on Windows |
+| Bridge endpoint | Core | A Unix socket on macOS and Linux; on Windows a named pipe, `\\.\pipe\agent-relay-<hash of the socket path>`, whose DACL admits only the current user (`relay::transport`) |
+
+## Transport
+
+The bridge is JSON-RPC 2.0, one JSON object per line (NDJSON), on a per-user
+Unix socket (on Windows, a named pipe; see **Windows** below):
+
+- **Path:** `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.sock`. `AGENT_RELAY_CORE_SOCKET`
+  or `--socket` names another; Agent Relay Dev uses `core.dev.sock` and
+  `--app-data-dir com.agentrelay.desktop.dev`.
+- **Permissions:** the socket is 0600. A directory the daemon creates for it
+  is 0700; an existing one (and a symlink naming it) must be this user's and
+  writable by no one else, and is never re-permissioned.
+- **Admission:** the kernel reports each peer's uid (`SO_PEERCRED` on Linux,
+  `getpeereid` + `LOCAL_PEERPID` on macOS). Only this user's processes are
+  served; another user's connection is closed without a reply. This is the
+  same trust boundary as the 0600 agent store, and no method returns a key or
+  token. `relay call` likewise speaks only to a daemon run by this user.
+- **Windows:** the socket path is only a key. The pipe is
+  `\\.\pipe\agent-relay-<16 hex digits>` (the start of the SHA-256 of the
+  path), created with a DACL that grants only the current user, refusing
+  remote clients and a name another process already holds; the lock file
+  keeps its path beside it. Clients check that the server is this user's.
+  File modes are no-ops inside the user profile.
+- **Frames:** UTF-8 lines of at most 1 MiB, not counting the newline. A
+  longer line gets an `invalid_request` error and the connection closes.
+- **Backpressure:** each connection queues at most 32 outgoing lines. A
+  client that stops reading stops being read, and its events lag (below)
+  rather than accumulate.
+
+A socket rather than the hosted child's stdio: on Linux the daemon runs under
+systemd with no UI attached, and a GTK app attaches and detaches; on both
+platforms more than one client (the app, `relay call`, support tooling) must
+reach the same daemon. One transport serves every case.
+
+Startup applies the subscription's initial status before loading settings and
+collections. The event stream stays live while those reads run in the background.
+Both apps bound handshakes to 5 seconds and list/status reads to 30 seconds;
+long-running commands retain an 11-minute budget for uploader startup. A timeout
+ends that request's connection without replaying the command. A 20-second startup
+watchdog exposes retry and diagnostics if the service has not become ready.
+
+## Lifecycle
+
+- **Single instance.** `relay serve` takes an exclusive `flock` on
+  `<socket>.lock` (0600) for its whole life. A second daemon for the same
+  socket exits 1 with `Agent Relay core is already running for this socket.`;
+  its host connects to the running one instead. Holding the lock, the daemon
+  replaces a leftover socket file, but never deletes a path that is not a
+  socket.
+- **macOS.** The core is a launchd LaunchAgent the app registers with
+  `SMAppService.agent(plistName:)`: `Contents/Library/LaunchAgents/com.agentrelay.desktop.core.plist`
+  runs `BundleProgram` `Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper` (the
+  `agent-relay-probe` binary, named for Activity Monitor) with `relay serve`,
+  `RunAtLoad` and `KeepAlive`. The session collector the core starts runs as
+  the hard link beside it, `Agent Relay Helper (Sessions)`, so Activity
+  Monitor tells the two apart. It runs at login with no window, keeps
+  delivering through app crashes, quits and updates, and launchd restarts it
+  when it exits, as systemd does on Linux. The app registers the agent when it
+  is not registered, and again for each new build (a new core binary or app
+  executable, development reloads included), which retires the core
+  registered before. launchd admits the core against a code requirement
+  Background Task Management records for the agent: a team (Developer ID,
+  Apple Development), which an update keeps, or for an ad-hoc signature the
+  old binary's hash, which BTM keeps for a while after the bundle changes; so
+  while an enabled core does not answer, the app registers it again (a
+  bounded number of times) until the new hash is recorded. While macOS waits for
+  approval the app opens **System Settings › General › Login Items**. It then
+  connects with backoff while launchd starts the core. Agent Relay Dev
+  registers `com.agentrelay.desktop.dev.core` with `--socket core.dev.sock
+  --app-data-dir com.agentrelay.desktop.dev --site-url <its site>`. The agent
+  stays registered across sign-out: agents on this Mac's relay workspace need
+  no Agent Relay sign-in. With **Settings › General › Keep agents connected
+  after quitting** off (it is on by default), quitting the app unregisters it,
+  which stops it until the app opens again; removing the app removes it. The
+  app's own login item only brings back the menu bar and notifications, so it is the person's choice and off until they make it.
+- **Linux.** The systemd user unit (`Restart=always`, `UMask=0077`) runs
+  `/usr/lib/agent-relay/agent-relay-probe relay serve --headless`;
+  `/usr/bin/agent-relay-desktop --headless` execs the same. Headless, the
+  core removes the app-owned GUI autostart entry (systemd starts Agent Relay;
+  the entry would start a second copy), never turns launch at login on after
+  a sign-in, and applies the agent-led setup defaults at start. The GTK app
+  connects to the socket; when no daemon answers it starts one as its child
+  and starts it again with backoff when it exits unexpectedly. Quitting
+  leaves that core running, as on the Mac, unless **Keep agents connected
+  after quitting** is off: then the app stops it with `daemon.shutdown`, and
+  turning the setting off first turns off the systemd unit with the person's
+  agreement. A core an earlier run left running on another version is
+  stopped and replaced.
+- **Shutdown.** SIGTERM, SIGINT, `daemon.shutdown`, or stdin closing (with
+  `--exit-on-stdin-eof`). The daemon publishes the `shutdown` event to every
+  greeted client, stops push channels, closes connections, and removes its
+  socket only if the inode is still its own.
+- **Upgrades.** A client that finds a daemon on another bridge version may
+  call `daemon.shutdown` without a handshake; launchd, systemd or the hosting
+  app starts the new binary. The Mac app also stops a core whose
+  `daemon_version` differs from the version its bundle carries (once per core
+  pid), since an update replaces the binary under a running core.
+
+## Protocol
+
+Request: `{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"status.get","params":{}}`.
+A request without `id` is a notification: executed, never answered; an `id`
+of `null` is answered with `null`. Batches
+are not supported. A connection's requests are answered in order; a client
+that must not wait behind a slow call opens a second connection.
+
+Response: `{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"result":{…}}` or
+`{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"error":{"code":-32000,"message":"…","data":{"kind":"…","retryable":false}}}`.
+
+Every connection sends `hello` first; any other method (except
+`daemon.shutdown`) before it fails with `handshake_required`.
+
+### Contract source
+
+The contract is defined once, in Rust: `probe/src/relay/contract` registers
+every method with its parameter and result types and every topic with its
+payload type; `relay::protocol` holds the envelopes, `ErrorKind` and `Topic`.
+The server answers a method only through the registry's typed `answer`, so a
+handler cannot return anything but its registered type, and parameters are
+read before a handler runs. The Swift client's types are generated from the
+registry, never written by hand:
+
+| Generated | For | Shape |
+|---|---|---|
+| `macos/Sources/RelayDesktopCore/CoreContract.swift` | macOS | Plain `Codable` structs and enums, the method names (`CoreMethod`), `CoreEvent`, and one typed `CoreClient` call per pooled method (`client.agentsList()`); `CoreClient` sends the connection-scoped methods (`hello`, `subscribe`, `unsubscribe`, `daemon.shutdown`) itself |
+
+`scripts/generate-contract.sh` regenerates it (`cargo run --bin
+relay-contract-codegen`). CI runs it and fails on `git diff --exit-code`;
+`cargo test` also fails when the file is stale, when a registered method
+reaches no handler, when the method names in this document's method tables
+differ from the registry, when its error table differs from `ErrorKind` (kinds,
+codes and retryability), and when its topic table names other topics. The
+tables' parameter, result and payload descriptions are prose, checked by
+review. Every enum a client reads accepts a value it does not know, because a
+core of another version than the app (normal mid-update, until the app retires
+it with `daemon.shutdown`) can send one: Swift reads it as the enum's named
+fallback (`x-fallback`) when it has one, else as `unknown(value)`.
+
+The Linux app's client (`linux_app::bridge`) uses the registry's own
+types, so every registered type serializes and deserializes, and a test checks
+that whatever a reader requires its writer always writes.
+`relay::contract::reader` reads results and events from the same schema the
+generators use: a field it does not know is ignored, an unknown enum value
+reads as the enum's `x-fallback`, and a value of an enum without one is
+dropped at the nearest optional field, list element or map entry. The core
+still refuses unknown values in parameters.
+
+### Errors
+
+`data.kind` is the stable code clients branch on; `message` is a sentence safe
+to show a person. Messages never carry provider bodies, keys or tokens.
+
+| kind | code | retryable | Meaning |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `parse_error` | -32700 | no | The line is not JSON (`id` is null) |
+| `invalid_request` | -32600 | no | Not JSON-RPC 2.0, or the line is too long |
+| `method_not_found` | -32601 | no | No such method |
+| `invalid_params` | -32602 | no | Parameters do not match the method |
+| `internal` | -32603 | no | A defect in the core, or a Relaycast response it cannot read |
+| `handshake_required` | -32000 | no | `hello` first |
+| `bridge_version_mismatch` | -32000 | no | Client and daemon speak different bridge versions |
+| `not_signed_in` | -32000 | no | No workspace key is known |
+| `refused` | -32000 | no | The core refuses on principle (for example a non-https origin) |
+| `relaycast_unreachable` | -32000 | yes | Relaycast could not be reached or failed on its side (5xx) |
+| `relaycast_refused` | -32000 | no | Relaycast refused the request as made (other 4xx, such as 400 or 422, or plan quota exhaustion) |
+| `unauthorized` | -32000 | no | Relaycast rejected the credential |
+| `rate_limited` | -32000 | yes | Relaycast is temporarily rate limiting |
+| `not_found` | -32000 | no | Relaycast, or this computer, has no such resource (an address no agent is at, an agent not registered here) |
+| `conflict` | -32000 | no | A conflicting change (a name taken in the workspace or by another session here) |
+| `shutting_down` | -32000 | yes | The daemon is stopping |
+| `busy` | -32000 | yes | Another change to the same agent or session is still running |
+| `store_failed` | -32000 | no | The agent store could not be saved, so nothing changed |
+| `fleet_unavailable` | -32000 | yes | Whether this computer's relay already manages the session could not be read, so it is not registered now |
+| `cloud_failed` | -32000 | yes | Agent Relay Cloud (or relayfile) could not be reached or failed |
+| `cloud_refused` | -32000 | no | Agent Relay Cloud refused the request; `message` is its own text when it sent one |
+| `uploader_failed` | -32000 | no | The probe's uploader command failed or ran out of time; `message` is the probe's own sentence |
+
+Provider `plan_limit_exceeded` responses (including HTTP 429) are reported
+as `relaycast_refused`, with a safe instruction to upgrade the workspace plan
+or wait for its quota reset before retrying. Registration and rename failures
+retain that explanation alongside the operation context in both apps. Ordinary
+HTTP 429 throttling remains retryable. Background workspace quota pacing is
+unchanged; raw provider response bodies are never shown.
+
+### Versioning
+
+`bridge_version` is `2`. Adding methods, optional parameters, result fields,
+topics or error kinds does not change it; clients ignore what they do not
+know and feature-detect with `hello.methods`. Removing or renaming anything,
+or changing a meaning, increments it. The app and the core ship in one bundle
+and one package, so a mismatch means a stale daemon, handled as above.
+
+### State and events
+
+Session tables read shared daemon snapshots. `sessions.list` overlays current
+registration and push state onto the last completed live-discovery pass; opening
+a window never launches discovery. A separate background pass refreshes the
+history/upload list and emits `uploader` invalidations only when it changes.
+`uploader.sessions.list` uses that memory snapshot, seeding a cold daemon from
+the collector's durable catalog (`sessions list --catalog-only`) without opening
+transcripts or parsing pending upload batches. Included cold rows show `checking`
+until enrichment verifies upload state. Cache coverage follows the largest
+requested page; account/workspace changes and mutations fence out older reads.
+Failed background reads keep the previous snapshot. Global `uploader.status`
+is also cached for presentation and refreshed on a separate background cadence;
+collector supervision always reads fresh process state. Both clients fetch history
+and global uploader status independently so neither live discovery nor upload
+status delays cached rows. Cold installs still require their first inventory pass.
+
+The UI renders one snapshot, returned by `status.get` and by `subscribe`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "revision": 7,
+  "daemon": {"version": "2026.10.1", "bridge_version": 2, "pid": 4242,

+}
+```
+
+- `workspace.state`: `missing` | `found`.
+  `verification`: `pending` | `verified` | `rejected` | `unreachable`. The key
+  itself is never in the snapshot.
+- `push.<agent>.state`: `connecting` | `live` | `waiting` (with `retry_in_ms`).
+  The signed-in person's own identity has a channel too once messaging is
+  used, keyed `@<name>` (agent names never contain `@`).
+- `agents.store_error`: why the agent store could not be read (it was set
+  aside) or saved. `agents.delivery_error`: the first agent whose delivery
+  queue could not be read, and why.
+- `account.state`: `signed_out` | `pending_approval` | `preparing` |
+  `signed_in` | `denied` | `expired` | `error` (the last three with
+  `error`). `phase` (while not settled):
+  `checking_existing_login`, `reusing_existing_login`, `waiting_for_browser`,
+  `waiting_for_device_approval`, `connecting_workspace`,
+  `preparing_local_sessions`. `error` is a sentence; `action`
+  The `selecting_workspace` phase exposes `workspace_choices` (id, name, organization_name) on the native welcome screen before provisioning.
+  `acknowledge_uninspected_schedules` means `account.sign_in` with that flag
+  set gets past it. `progress` is local capture while sessions are prepared:
+  `{"phase","source","processed_files","total_files","sessions_captured"}`.
+  `workspace_id` is the Agent Relay (Cloud) workspace; `person` is who the
+  uploader is connected as. No token is ever in the snapshot.
+
+Events are notifications on the connection that subscribed:
+
+```json
+{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"event","params":{"topic":"status","seq":12,"data":{…snapshot…}}}
+```

+| `status` | The whole snapshot | After every change. Replace, never merge; ignore one whose `revision` is not newer than what is shown |
+| `activity` | `{"level":"info"\|"warning"\|"error","message":"…","at_ms":…}` | Append-only log lines |
+| `shutdown` | `{}` | Sent to every greeted client, subscribed or not; the connection then closes |
+| `invalidated` | `{"what":"sessions"\|"agents"\|"roster"\|"fleet"\|"messages"\|"people"\|"activity"\|"uploader"\|"chat"\|"projects"\|"incoming"\|"settings"}` | Re-fetch that collection (2a; `sessions`, `fleet` 2b — compared every 5 s —; `uploader`, `chat`, `projects`, `incoming` 2c; `settings` when an agent changed one through the session socket's `PATCH /settings`) |
+| `sign_in` | `status.account` plus `{"verification_url","verification_url_complete","user_code","expires_at","interval"}` (null when no link is waiting) | After every sign-in step; the UI opens `verification_url_complete` when it appears (2c) |

+`seq` increases by one per event across all topics, so a client sees gaps
+for topics it is not subscribed to. A client that falls more than 256 events

+
+### Methods
+
+`Lands in` names the stacked PR that implements a method; everything else in
+this document describes the finished system.
+
+**Core**
+
+| Method | Params | Result | Lands in |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `hello` | `{"bridge_version":2}` | `{"bridge_version","daemon_version","pid","methods":[…],"topics":[…]}` | 1 |
+| `diagnostics.requests` | — | `{"entries":[RequestEntry]}`; local bounded request log, newest first, redacted request/response, status, timing and stable ID; memory only, no telemetry | 1 |
+| `status.get` | — | The snapshot | 1 |
+| `subscribe` | `{"topics":["status","activity",…]}` | `{"topics":[…],"status":{…snapshot…}}` | 1 |
+| `unsubscribe` | `{"topics":[…]}` | `{"topics":[…remaining]}` | 1 |
+| `workspace.refresh` | — | `status.workspace` after rediscovery (and verification when the key changed or was unverified) | 1 |
+| `workspace.verify` | — | `status.workspace`; `GET /v1/workspace` with the key | 1 |
+| `daemon.shutdown` | — | `{"stopping":true}`; allowed before `hello` | 1 |
+
+**Workspace and account**
+
+| Method | Params | Result | Lands in |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `account.status` | — | As the `sign_in` topic: `status.account` plus the waiting link's fields, null when none is waiting | 2c |
+| `account.sign_in` | `{"site_url"?, "workspace"?, "sharing":"all"\|"new"\|"selected", "acknowledge_uninspected_schedules"?, "flow"?:"browser"\|"device"}` | As `account.status`, at once; the attempt continues in the background and reports on `sign_in`. While one is running, or once signed in, answers where it stands; signed in with no session the core can call Cloud with as the person (the official CLI's it borrowed expired, or Cloud refused the kept one), it asks the person again (`flow` as above, the browser reusing a signed-in browser) and keeps the session, leaving the uploader's connection alone; an approval as another person than the connection's keeps nothing | 2c |
+| `account.select_workspace` | `{"workspace_id":"<uuid>"}` | `{}`; completes the native `selecting_workspace` phase using one of `account.workspace_choices`. Setup waits for this choice; cancellation leaves the workspace unconnected | 2c |
+| `account.sign_in.cancel` | — | `{}`; a sign-in that has not finished leaves nothing behind: the Cloud session and workspace key it kept go back to what they were (a reused kept session stays), and a connection its `cloud install` made is disconnected (as `account.sign_out` does), with nothing attaching it meanwhile | 2c |
+| `account.sign_out` | — | `{}`; forgets and revokes the Cloud session, stops every uploader command, disconnects this computer's install, deactivates the mailbox; `uploader_failed` when the disconnect did not finish (the next sign-in retries it first) | 2c |
+| `account.connect_workspace` | `{"workspace_id":"<uuid>"}` | `status.workspace`; Cloud `/workspaces/{id}/resolve` with the kept session, else after a browser sign-in (instant in a signed-in browser) | 2c |
+
+Sign-in (`relay::account`):
+
+1. **A session.** With `flow` omitted, clients reuse an eligible
+   saved app or CLI session, otherwise open the browser's Cloud session. Cloud
+   asks for Google sign-in only when the browser is signed out. The browser
+   returns through a PKCE loopback receiver, without device-code confirmation.
+   Explicit `flow: "browser"` requests bypass saved sessions and open Google's
+   account chooser. The logged-out desktop **Sign in with Google** action
+   always sends this explicit browser flow on macOS, Linux and Windows. `flow: "device"` reuses an
+   eligible session first, otherwise requests device approval for remote or
+   headless clients. `/setup/sign-in` preserves that device default for existing
+   callers; `flow: "browser"` there opts into the normal desktop continuation.
+   Cloud returns a short-lived handoff token traded at `/auth/desktop/session`
+   with the verifier for a renewable session. A return for another attempt or
+   site is turned away.
+2. **Who and where.** `whoami`; the workspace is `workspace`, else Cloud's
+   current one.
+3. **Kept.** The session is kept (never the CLI's) in the agent store's
+   `cloudSession`, on both platforms; the probe's RelayHistory renewal
+   reads it there (after the official CLI's), in the data directory the
+   core runs it with (`AGENT_RELAY_APP_DATA_DIR`). While the uploader
+   reports a job blocked on `authentication_required`, supervision refreshes
+   the kept session whenever it has under five minutes left, so that renewal
+   finds a live one. A refresh Cloud fails backs off from one supervision
+   period, doubling to 32. The Linux app's former `cloud-session.json` is
+   imported once and removed.
+4. **The account workspace.** `/workspaces/{id}/resolve` puts its Relaycast
+   key in the store's `cloud`, the one workspace key messaging uses; a
+   workspace that shares none is reported in activity, not fatal.
+5. **The uploader.** `cloud install --json` runs with the session as
+   `CLOUD_API_ACCESS_TOKEN`, so the probe connects without a second approval;
+   its events become `phase` and `progress`. Done when `installs` lists the
+   connection.
+
+Every Cloud call as the person (`CloudAccess::request`) uses, in order,
+`CLOUD_API_ACCESS_TOKEN`, the kept session, else, only when this app keeps
+no session for the site, the official CLI's live one (it may be another
+person); a kept session that cannot be renewed, or a CLI's that expired, fails the
+call `not_signed_in`, which `account.sign_in` fixes without disconnecting.
+The session overview methods say so: "Your Agent Relay sign-in expired. Sign
+in again to view session summaries." A kept session Cloud refuses is refreshed once (refresh
+tokens rotate on every use). Only a refused refresh token (400, 401, 403)
+forgets it; a rate limit, timeout or outage keeps it for a later try.
+
+**Uploader** — the probe's own commands, run as this binary
+
+| Method | Params | Result | Lands in |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `uploader.status` | — | `{"running","paused","sharing_mode","directory","collector_replacing","collector_outdated","delivery":{"bootstrap_complete","pending_records","acknowledged_records","skipped_records","unqueued_changes","last_acknowledged_ms","failure"},"sessions":{"total","shared","excluded"},"stage","stage_message","needs_start","journal_full","upgrading"}`, read from the probe's `status --json`; `stage` is `not_running`\|`paused`\|`needs_attention`\|`offline`\|`preparing`\|`uploading`\|`up_to_date`, `stage_message` the probe's sentence for that stage when it has one, `directory` the install's (it holds `collector.log`); `not_signed_in` when nothing is connected | 2c, 3 (`directory`) |
+| `uploader.start` / `uploader.pause` / `uploader.resume` / `uploader.retry` / `uploader.compact` / `uploader.disconnect` | — | `{"running","started"}`, `{"paused"}`, `{"paused"}`, `{"retried"}`, `{"removed_records"}`, `{"disconnected"}`, from the `--json` commands. `uploader.retry` restarts a job a non-retryable verdict blocked, or wakes an active job waiting out a `transient` failure's backoff (its attempt count is kept); `retried` is `true` when it did either. A paused or cancelled job, a batch in flight and a `rate_limited` wait (the receiver asked for less traffic, including when a sibling batch of the same window then failed transiently) are left as they are and answer `false`. Both apps offer Retry for a stop and for a lasting `transient` failure (`stage` `needs_attention`), and send a Retry or Compact the core never received (the bridge's "starting"/"reconnecting" failure) once on their own when the core next answers | 2c |
+| `uploader.sharing.set` | `{"mode":"all"\|"new"\|"selected"}` | `{"sharing_mode"}` | 2c |
+| `uploader.sessions.list` | `{"limit"?}` | `{"sharing_mode","sessions":[…]}` | 2c |
+| `uploader.sessions.preview` | `{"limit"?,"refresh"?}` | `{"sessions":[…]}` | 2c |
+| `uploader.sessions.delete` | `{"session_keys":[…]}` | `{"updated":n}` | 2c |
+| `uploader.sessions.reset` | `{"confirmation":"DELETE ALL SESSIONS"}` | `{"reset":true}` | 2c |
+| `uploader.sessions.include` / `.exclude` | `{"session_keys":[…]}` | `{"updated":n}` | 2c |
+| `uploader.sessions.delete` | `{"session_keys":[…]}` | `{"updated":n}`; confirmed deletion of this account’s uploaded copy and delegated subagents, retaining local history. A durable plan reconciles interrupted requests; re-inclusion explicitly clears the server deletion fence. | 2c |
+
+The uploader commands are the probe's own `--json` commands, run as child
+processes of this very binary, so there is no version skew. They stay
+processes because that is what they are built as: each holds its install's
+file locks for its life and releases them by exiting; its answer is one JSON
+line on stdout and its error one safe sentence on stderr; `start` and
+sharing changes launch or replace the detached collector; and a command past
+its deadline, or still running at sign-out, is stopped by signal, which a
+call into the daemon could not be. A store migration that aborts takes down
+that command, never delivery. Deadlines: `installs` and `status` 15 s,
+`pause`/`resume` 30 s, `sessions.list` 30 s, `sessions.preview` 3 s (15 s
+with `refresh`), `disconnect` 60 s, `compact` 180 s, `start` 10.5 min;
+sharing changes and `reclaim` none (killing one would leave uploads stopped,
+or redo a migration). At start the daemon lists `installs` (bounded; nothing
+waits on it), releases decommissioned installs with `reclaim` in the
+background, keeps `~/.local/bin/agent-relay-probe` no older than itself
+(never a copy another developer signed), and every 60 s starts the attached
+collector again when it stopped or runs an older build, and records when a
+running uploader starts or stops failing to deliver (`upload_health`).
+
+Sessions on the relay are uploaded (`relay::relay_uploads`): whenever the
+agents change, and on every supervision tick, each registered session the
+uploader lists but does not upload is included, once. A session whose
+inclusion was refused, or that someone stopped uploading, is not asked for
+again until it leaves the relay and returns. With sharing `all` everything
+uploads already; an install a newer probe runs is left alone.
+
+**Agents on this computer**
+
+| Method | Params | Result | Lands in |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `sessions.transcript` | `{"source","session_id","cursor"?:{"ts_ms","id"},"following"?:false}` | `{"entries":[{"id","role","kind","text","timestamp_ms","truncated"}],"next_cursor"}`; local-only paged conversation. First page hydrates one session in a private reader cache, independent of upload selection. Up to 100 events, 64 KiB per entry and 512 KiB serialized entries per page; oversized text is marked truncated. Requires the account plugin, not an upload. | 2c |
+| `sessions.list` | — | `{"sessions":[{"target":{"kind":"codex"\|"claude-terminal"\|"claude-cloud"\|"grok"\|"grok-open"\|"opencode","id"},"title","project","directory","live","updated_at_ms","registration":{"name","address","added_by_session","push","spawn"?:{"harness","can_take_over","taken_over"}}\|null,"suggested_name"}]}`; `spawn` is set on an agent Agent Relay spawned here (see `agents.take_over`); a registered session discovery no longer finds is listed with `live:false`; Grok/OpenCode rows come only from the verified probe-owned registry, plus `grok-open` rows from the already-open registry when `AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_EXISTING_GROK=1`; a Grok session both registries claim is not listed under either kind | 2b |
+| `sessions.title.capability` | `{"source","session_id"}` | `{"supported","reason"}` (`reason` is null when supported); native title-edit support for the exact catalog identity, including history-only rows; unsupported providers or unavailable sessions include an explanation. Available without an account. | native session titles |
+| `sessions.title.set` | `{"source","session_id","title"}` | `{"title"}` after the native provider acknowledges the metadata change; trims outer whitespace, accepts 1–200 characters without control characters, and applies provider-specific limits. Uses trusted discovery to resolve the catalog identity; accepts no client paths or endpoints. Publishes sessions/uploader invalidations on success. Available without an account. See [native title support](session-title-editing.md). | native session titles |
+| `sessions.managed.launch` | `{"kind":"grok"\|"opencode","executable","directory","session_id"}` | `{"target","title","directory"}` after the default-off probe has launched/supervised the endpoint and verified OS identity plus provider readback; endpoint, pid, socket and credentials are never accepted | managed provider bridge |
+| `sessions.existing.register` | `{"kind":"grok-open","session_id","directory"}` | `{"target","title","directory"}` after the default-off probe (`AGENT_RELAY_ENABLE_EXISTING_GROK=1`) has found exactly one marker-free Grok leader of this user from the kernel, proved its executable, argv and socket peer, and read back model/version from a `session/load` of that session in `directory`; a session or leader the managed registry holds is refused; process, socket, endpoint and credentials are never accepted | already-open Grok route |
+| `agents.list` | — | `{"agents":[{"name","address","target","title","registered_at","added_by_session","reply_with_final_answer","webhook":{"id","url"}\|null,"integrations":[{"provider","resource","ready"}],"push","delivery_error"}]}` | 2a |
+| `agents.register` | `{"target":{"kind","id"},"name"?,"description"?}` | `{"name","address","already_registered"}`; a session already registered answers `already_registered: true`; otherwise it must be one `sessions.list` finds live (`refused`); without `name`, its suggested name | 2a |
+| `agents.unregister` | `{"name"}` | `{}`; waits for a delivery in flight; refused while integrations remain | 2a |
+| `agents.rename` | `{"name","new_name"}` (`name` may be either of the agent's names) | `{"name","address","released"}`: the session's new and only name, and the earlier name it replaced; renaming back to the registered name makes it current again | 2a |
+| `agents.test_message` | `{"name","text"?}` | `{"message_id"}`; sent as you when signed in, else as this computer's test sender | 2a |
+| `agents.transcript` | `{"name","cursor"?:{"ts_ms","id"}}` | `sessions.transcript`'s page plus `follow_cursor`, where what is written next starts: what a spawned agent whose `registration.spawn.can_take_over` is set has said, from its own output (a spawned Claude's stream-json log, `<app data>/spawned-agents/<session>.jsonl`), read from the byte offset in `cursor.id`; a line still being written waits for the next read. `refused` for an agent without a transcript of its own (a spawned Codex thread: read its session with `sessions.transcript`), `not_found` for an unknown name | native spawn |
+| `agents.take_over` | `{"name","interrupt"?}` | `{"name","target","directory","interrupted"}` once the spawned agent's headless process has stopped, so the session is the caller's to resume (`claude --resume <id>` in `directory`): exactly one process runs a session. Without `interrupt` it first waits up to 10 minutes for a running turn to end (`busy` after); a second call with `interrupt` while one waits makes it stop the agent at once, and both answer alike. The agent keeps its name, address and place; its process becomes whichever one runs the session, and releasing it leaves that process alone. Taking over one already taken over answers again without stopping anything; `refused` for a harness that cannot be taken over (Codex: open its thread in Codex) | native spawn |
+| `agents.reply_setting` | `{"name","enabled":true\|false\|null}` | `{}`; `null` answers automatically only when the session cannot reply itself | 2a |
+| `agents.webhook.create` | `{"name"}` | `{"id","url","secret"\|null,"created"}`; the secret only to the call that created it | 2a |

+
+Telemetry goes to PostHog through `/i/v0/e/` on the configured release host only
+for the production site in a release build. Events use `desktop:<installation
+id>` until an install attaches; then one `$identify` merges that id into
+Cloud `users.id`, and later events carry the user and `$groups
+{organization, workspace}` (`relay::telemetry`). Opt-out, the installation id
+and the merged user live in `preferences.json`, `installation-id` and
+`analytics-identified` (`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`/`$XDG_CACHE_HOME`
+`com.agentrelay.desktop` on Linux, as the GTK app kept them; the app data
+directory on macOS). Linux turns on
+launch at login at its first sign-in to the production site only
+(`launch-at-login-configured` in the app data directory), so a person who
+turns it off keeps it off.
+
+Explicit agent registration/removal and message sending are tracked at their
+shared bridge handlers, so both UIs produce the same attempts and outcomes.
+`surface` and `agent_kind` accept only contract enums; the remaining usage
+metadata is boolean or bounded numeric. Search text, recipients and message
+content are never telemetry properties. Initial transcript reads are tracked.
+Background readers set `following: true` even when no cursor is available,
+excluding those reads from open telemetry. Pagination and background conversation
+polling are also excluded. Upload completion is
+an observed queued/uploading-to-uploaded transition count, with an in-memory
+baseline scoped to the uploader attachment; it is not a durable delivery ledger.
+The full operation inventory and success semantics are in README's desktop
+analytics section.

+Desktop startup leaves this legacy receiver uninstalled on both macOS and
+Linux. Cloud removed the Room API in cloud#3039 and dropped its tables in
+migration `0113_drop_room_tables.sql`; neither sign-in nor supervision should
+request a Room session or restore an old Room binding. `incoming.status`
+therefore reports `stopped`, with no threads or held messages.
+
+Adding agents uses the account's resolved Relaycast workspace and each

+
+## The relay-send socket
+
+Sessions reach the core through a second socket with a different trust model:
+`$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock` on Linux (`<app data>/run/relay.sock`
+without a runtime directory), `<app data>/run/relay.sock` on macOS (short `$TMPDIR`, then
+`/tmp`, fallbacks when that path is too long for a Unix socket; Agent Relay Dev
+uses `agent-relay-dev` in each), advertised in
+`~/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket` (`relay-socket.dev` for Agent Relay
+Dev). It speaks the HTTP routes in
+[injectable agents](injectable-agents.md) and
+[agent-driven setup](agent-driven-setup.md) and identifies the caller by
+kernel pid and process ancestry, not just uid. The core serves both sockets;
+the bridge socket is for UIs, the relay-send socket for sessions
+(`relay::outbound`).
+
+- **Caller.** `SessionDirectory::caller(pid)` names the session from kernel
+  evidence alone. A present `CODEX_THREAD_ID` decides alone: it is accepted
+  only when the nearest trusted Codex ancestor (same user; on macOS OpenAI's
+  valid signature, on Linux owned by root or the user and writable by no one
+  else) holds that thread's writer lock. An ordinary Codex must hold only
+  that lock, or hold it as the oldest rollout inode that process still has
+  open, while every other lock is a newer team/subagent rollout whose header
+  names this thread as parent. Replacing the path, or rewriting the header,
+  cannot promote a newer inode to the root. A
+  descendant still cannot claim one of those subagent locks; that takes a
+  nearer ancestor that holds the subagent lock on its own, or an
+  `app-server`, which may hold several but must hold the claimed one. An invalid ID is
+  refused rather than tried as anything else. Without it, the nearest
+  ancestor that is a live Claude Code session with its recorded start time,
+  or a trusted Codex running `resume <thread>`; the walk ends at the first
+  Codex either way. A registry record is read up to the end of its first
+  JSON value. An ancestor that is a running Claude Code session whose
+  `<pid>.json` does not parse (a `<pid>.<hash>.key` records its start
+  time) ends the walk with `session_file_unreadable` (409), naming the
+  file. A Devin ancestor decides alike: it is the session whose
+  `<devin>/cli/session_locks/<session>.lock` it holds open, or nobody — a
+  `devin` command that is not a session never lends a caller an outer
+  session's identity, and a lock file's recorded pid counts only while that
+  pid still holds the lock. A process inside no supported session is
+  `not_a_relay_session`; another user's is `not_this_user`.
+- **Routes.** `POST /send` and `GET /agents` need the caller's registration;
+  `GET /whoami`, `POST`/`DELETE /register` and the setup routes do not.
+  Every route except `/whoami` counts against the session's 30 requests a
+  minute. `/agents` reads with the key saved on the caller's own
+  registration and caches the roster 30 s.
+- **Attachments.** `POST /send` targets one `"to"`, `"address"`, or `"channel"`
+  and takes optional `"files"` (absolute paths,
+  at most five, each a regular file of at most 25 MB), uploaded with the
+  caller's agent token before the message is sent with their ids. Inbound,
+  a delivery's `attachments` are saved under `<app data>/attachments/` before
+  injection and listed after the message text (`relay::files`).
+- **Reply commands.** An injected message carries the `[reply: …]` command
+  only while the socket serves and a process that could be identified as the
+  session runs it: a live Claude Code session with its recorded start time, or
+  a trusted Codex holding that thread's writer lock alone (or as the root
+  session whose other locks are proven subagents), a trusted shared
+  app-server holding the claimed lock, or an older Codex resuming it. Hints
+  for macOS Codex threads without a `resume <thread>` ancestor invoke this
+  probe's `relay socket-request` client because the system curl binary does
+  not expose `CODEX_THREAD_ID` to process inspection.
+- **Registration.** Every registration (`agents.register`, auto-activation,
+  `POST /register`) reads fleet ownership fresh
+  (`SessionDirectory::fleet_owned`) and refuses (`fleet_unavailable`; HTTP 503
+  on the socket) when any broker or claim cannot be read.
+- **Setup.** Of the setup routes (`GET /setup/status`, `POST /setup/sign-in`,
+  `/setup/sharing`, `/setup/auto-activate`, `/setup/direct-delivery`),
+  status, sign-in and sharing call `account.status`, `account.sign_in`
+  (`flow:"device"`, `sharing:"selected"`), `uploader.status` and
+  `uploader.sharing.set` through the core's own method dispatch
+  (`server::call`); a core without them answers `setup_unavailable` and
+  reports sign-in from the workspace alone. Auto-activation and direct
+  delivery are the core's own settings. Status waits on no network call or
+  uploader command: it answers from the last `uploader.status` answer and the
+  workspace's last verification while a fresh read, the bootstrap's
+  sharing step and Relaycast's verification of a newly found key run in the
+  background. A status read that sends `X-Agent-Relay-Observe: 1` returns
+  the same body and does not apply those defaults; the Claude SessionStart
+  hook uses it so a nudge cannot turn automatic activation on. The body
+  includes `allow_self_registration`. The bootstrap's sharing step only waits for the uploader to
+  answer: it keeps the install's own mode (`selected` from a sign-in through
+  setup or an app), so it never widens what an install shares. No setup lock is held across a network call; the
+  bootstrap's sharing step and `POST /setup/sharing` share one lock of their
+  own, which status never takes. Webhooks and integrations are
+  the agent runtime's (`agents.webhook.*`, `agents.integrations.*`): Linux
+  subscribes through relayfile-cloud in process, as macOS does, rather than
+  running the `agent-relay` CLI and a private relayfile daemon.
+- **Lifecycle.** Starting is serialized by `.relay.sock.lock` beside the
+  socket. A live socket another app serves is left alone (the core says so in
+  `activity` and serves only the bridge); a stale one of this user's is
+  replaced; anything that is not a socket is never deleted. Stopping removes
+  the socket and the pointer only while each is still this core's.
+
+## Workspace discovery
+
+The workspace is the signed-in account's (`cloud` in the agent store, at its
+own origin), written at sign-in together with the uploader's target, so uploads
+and messaging always use one workspace and one key (`relay::workspace`).
+Nothing else names a workspace key: the environment, the `agent-relay` CLI's
+files under `$AGENT_RELAY_HOME` and keys pasted into the app are not read.
+Signing in to another workspace replaces it.
+
+Only `rk_…` keys of at least 12 characters without whitespace qualify.
+`RELAYCAST_URL` overrides the origin when it is a bare https origin (http and
+a port only for `localhost`/`127.0.0.1`; no user info, path, query or
+fragment); anything else leaves `https://cast.agentrelay.com`. The daemon
+rediscovers every 30 s and on `workspace.refresh`, and verifies a new key with
+`GET /v1/workspace`.
+
+The machine prefix is the host name with `.local` dropped, diacritics folded,
+non-`[a-z0-9]` runs as one dash, at most 40 characters, else `computer`; each
+direct node is `<prefix>-<agent id>`, and a registration keeps the prefix it
+was issued.
+
+## The agent store
+
+`relay::store` owns `injectable-agents.json` in the app data directory
+(`~/Library/Application Support/com.agentrelay.desktop` on macOS,
+`$XDG_DATA_HOME/com.agentrelay.desktop`, default `~/.local/share/…`, on
+Linux). One format on both platforms: the macOS app's, plus
+`inDoubtDeliveryIDs`, so the macOS app still reads what the core writes.
+
+```json
+{
+  "registrations": [{"name", "agentID", "target": {"kind", "id"}, "title", "baseURL",
+                     "registeredAt": "2026-09-30T10:00:00Z", "workspaceKey", "machinePrefix",
+                     "addedBySession", "webhook": {"id","url","token","channelName","channelID"},

+}
+```
+
+- Written 0600 by swapping a complete temporary file into place, under an
+  exclusive `flock` on `injectable-agents.json.lock`. Every writer folds its
+  changes onto what another wrote since it last read the file (a three-way
+  merge per registration, token, delivery id, reply and cleanup; a removal
+  wins over an edit; two registrations of one session keep the writer's and
+  queue the other agent for removal).
+- A file that does not decode is moved aside as
+  `injectable-agents.json.unreadable-<time>` and reported in
+  `status.agents.store_error`; one that cannot be read blocks every save.
+- Older stores are migrated when read and written back once: the Linux app's
+  (Unix-seconds `registeredAt`; the account's `workspaceID`,
+  `workspaceName`, `relayfileWorkspaceID` at the top level; `webhooks`,
+  `integrations` and `replyParents` keyed by session; cached `senders` and
+  `conversations`), and macOS 2026.09.5's `workspaceKeySource`. A key the
+  sign-in fetched moves from `workspaceKey` to `cloud`; a pasted
+  `workspaceKey` is dropped; registrations without a `machinePrefix`
+  get the prefix they were reachable at; unattributed legacy thread replies
+  are dropped. No registration or token is lost. The person identity and
+  conversation hints the Linux app cached are fetched again on use.
+
+## Delivery
+
+`relay::delivery` puts each message addressed to one of this computer's
+agents into its session (through the `Injector`) and settles it:
+
+- Your relay identity (for messaging) belongs to one signed-in person in
+  one Cloud workspace on one site; when the account changes, it and
+  everything read with it are forgotten.
+- Pushed `deliver` frames for DMs and thread replies are handled from the
+  frame; anything else, and every socket that comes up or goes down, reads
+  the queue. Each agent's work runs in order, one delivery at a time. The
+  queue safety net runs every five minutes while that agent's push channel
+  is live. Without push it starts at 3 s and backs off consecutive empty
+  reads to 6, 12, then 15 s; a nonempty read resets the fast cadence. Socket
+  reconnects/disconnects and injection retries still request immediate reads.
+  Every successful queue read refreshes Relaycast presence, so the core sends
+  a separate REST heartbeat only after 30 s without a successful queue read,
+  confirmed WebSocket presence update, or heartbeat attempt. Failed reads
+  never postpone presence. Node WebSocket heartbeats run every 15 s and carry
+  unique request IDs within the connection. Servers supporting direct-node
+  presence reply with `data.agent_presence: true` and the bound `agent_id`
+  after renewing both the agent roster and its 60 s presence record. Only a
+  matching, successful acknowledgement of the latest request, younger than
+  one socket heartbeat interval, counts; the core credits its send time and
+  verifies that the registration's origin and credential still match.
+  Older servers, lost acknowledgements and disconnected sockets retain REST
+  fallback every 30 s. Hosted Relaycast (`https://cast.agentrelay.com`) does
+  not yet acknowledge socket presence, but there a live socket keeps the node
+  online and an agent shows active for five minutes after its last
+  authenticated request, so a REST heartbeat only renews that window, at the
+  cost of a database write. With a live push socket to hosted Relaycast the
+  fallback runs every 2 minutes. Other servers keep 30 s: they may hold a
+  60 s presence record that a socket does not renew.
+  REST heartbeats
+  run one at a time per workspace, at least 100 ms apart; up to four
+  independent workspaces progress concurrently. Queue polling continues
+  on its own cadence through a slow heartbeat cohort, including Connect
+  inboxes. The cohort's duration counts toward the next supervisor poll
+  rather than adding a full sleep when it finishes. A `workspace_busy`
+  write-admission response backs off background writes without pausing
+  roster or delivery reads. Plan and rate limits, and
+  `503 database_overloaded` (or any 503 naming a Retry-After), still pause
+  both reads and writes for that workspace, honoring Retry-After and backing
+  off exponentially while the refusals continue.
+  For an otherwise idle registered session with healthy push, this reduces
+  periodic REST requests from roughly 5,760/day (queue + heartbeat each 30 s)
+  to 288/day (queue each 300 s, no REST presence heartbeats) when the server
+  acknowledges WebSocket presence, excluding startup, reconnects, messages
+  and retries. Hosted Relaycast, which does not acknowledge it yet, gets up
+  to 1,008/day (queue each 300 s + heartbeat each 120 s), down from
+  3,168/day; other servers without acknowledgements keep up to 3,168/day.
+  An empty fallback queue settles
+  near 5,760 reads/day instead of 28,800, and those reads replace redundant
+  heartbeats. These are cadence estimates, not a claim about historical
+  workspace usage. Relay Connect guest inboxes retain their existing polling
+  policy; this schedule applies to registered desktop sessions.
+- Injected: DMs, mentions, thread replies, and anything in the agent's own
+  webhook or integration channel (minus integration noise: index rewrites,
+  generic updates, edits, pushes). Everything else, and the agent's own
+  messages, is acknowledged without injecting.
+- A delivery is acknowledged only after the record that it was injected is
+  on disk. One that may have arrived (`in_doubt`) is never sent again: it is
+  recorded with the injected ids (all a macOS app save keeps) and in a list
+  of its own, bounded apart, reported failed (not retryable), and failed again, never acknowledged, if redelivered. A failed injection is
+  retried after `min(30, 3 × 2^(n−1))` s; one with nowhere to go yet waits
+  5 s without counting as a failure. One the session's route refuses for
+  good (`InjectOutcome::Refused`: an archived or unknown Claude app session,
+  an id that names no Codex thread or Claude session) is failed on Relaycast
+  as not retryable, never acknowledged, and not tried again. A Claude app
+  session refusing because it is archived also marks its agent archived.
+  Pending refusal settlements preserve the session's refusal reason, are journaled independently of presence and
+  retried without reading an archived agent's queue or injecting again. The
+  archived agent leaves only after its non-retryable failure is confirmed
+  (`docs/injectable-agents.md`). The bounded refusal history preserves FIFO
+  eviction across concurrent saves; unsettled refusals remain protected in
+  the pending settlement journal until confirmed. Refusals also keep the
+  established injected markers, including a versioned local refusal marker
+  in `injectedDeliveryIDs`: a legacy writer dropping both new fields and
+  `inDoubtDeliveryIDs` while the core is stopped cannot turn a refusal into
+  reinjection or acknowledgement after restart. Explicit removal retires
+  unresolvable pending settlements while keeping the handled history;
+  automatic archive removal checks for pending refusals under the delivery
+  lock and keeps credentials until the non-retryable failure is confirmed.
+  Compatibility entries reserve an independent 1,000-refusal window beside
+  the 1,000 ordinary injections; pending refusals stay protected until settled.
+  Versioned pending markers restore that journal if an older writer omits
+  it, including archived agents. Refusals while a released alias drains can
+  use its retiring credential and are retired after its delivery line drains.
+- Removing an agent waits for its delivery in flight, through its name and
+  its alias; nothing is injected for it after the removal returns, and both
+  names leave Relaycast together.
+- One name per session. A rename (or `POST /register` with a new name from a
+  registered session) records the new name as `alias` in the registration,
+  with its own Relaycast agent id and token, and makes it the session's only
+  name: `/send` (direct messages, `reply_to` replies, channel posts and
+  subscriptions), automatic final answers, `/whoami`, `agents.list` and
+  `sessions.list` addresses all use it. The registered agent stays only to
+  forward what was sent to it: its push channel and queue reads continue, but
+  it is neither heartbeated nor announced present, it is updated to `idle`
+  with `renamed_to` metadata (queued in `pendingNameMarkers` and retried until
+  Relaycast confirms it, and backfilled once after start), and rosters skip
+  it by that marker, whatever presence Relaycast shows. Answers owed and reply routes stay keyed to the registered
+  agent and go out under the current name. Webhooks and integrations stay on
+  the registered agent. A channel post refused with `not_channel_member`
+  joins the current name and is sent once more; joining or leaving a channel
+  under the current name also leaves it under the forwarding one, and a post
+  sent under either name is never injected back into the session. Renaming again moves the
+  previous alias to the registration's `retiredAliases` (with its token and
+  `retiredAt`) in the same save: it keeps its push channel and queue reads,
+  gets a `renamed_to` marker, and is not heartbeated. The periodic pass
+  releases one 24 hours after `retiredAt`, under the session's lock and the
+  alias's delivery lock (so a delivery to it in flight, and any refusal it
+  journals, finish first), rechecking expiry and refusals under both: it
+  leaves the store and is queued as a pending cleanup in one save, with the
+  key `key_for` resolves (a legacy registration's included), so its Relaycast
+  removal is retried until it is gone. Joining or leaving a channel under the
+  current name leaves it under every forwarding name, retired ones included.
+  A retired alias's channel memberships are not handed on when it is
+  released; the session joins under its current name the next time it posts
+  or subscribes there. Renaming to a name still in
+  `retiredAliases` takes it up again without registering a new agent.
+  Removing the agent removes every alias. A registration replaced or dropped
+  in a merge queues its aliases' removal. Another session cannot take a name
+  held as an alias, current or retired.
+- Automatic final answers: a message whose session was not given a reply
+  command (or whose agent always answers) gets the session's final answer,
+  read from its transcript once the turn is over. The answer is claimed in
+  the store before it is sent, with a stable idempotency key, and a socket
+  send claims it first; either way there is never a second answer. Provider
+  events and webhook posts never get one.
+
+## Plug-in points
+
+The core is built with `daemon::Plugins`; each defaults to a no-op until
+its stage lands.
+
+| Trait | File | Supplies | Default | Lands in |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| `inject::Injector` | `probe/src/relay/inject.rs` | `inject` (`Delivered`, `Retry`, `Waiting`, `InDoubt`, `Refused`), `reply_hint`, `final_answer` per session kind | `NoInjector`: every delivery waits | 2b |
+| `sessions::SessionDirectory` | `probe/src/relay/sessions.rs` | Sessions on this computer, fleet-managed ones excluded | `NoSessions` | 2b |
+| `cloud_session::CloudAccess` | `probe/src/relay/cloud_session.rs` | The signed-in account and authenticated `<site>/cloud/api/v1` requests | `SignedOut` | 2c |
+| `agents::SettingsExtension` | `probe/src/relay/agents.rs` | Settings owned elsewhere (`direct_delivery`, `analytics_enabled`, `contractor_access`) | none | 2b, 2c |
+| `outbound::RelaySend` | `probe/src/relay/outbound.rs` | The relay-send socket's path, pointer and Claude Code's direct-delivery setting (`setup::DirectDelivery`) | `None`: not served | 2b |
+| `daemon::Plugins::account` | `probe/src/relay/account.rs` | Sign-in, the uploader and telemetry (`account::with_account` adds the account, also as `cloud`) | none: account, uploader and telemetry methods are not offered | 2c |
+| `uploader::ProbeRunner` | `probe/src/relay/uploader.rs` | Running the probe's commands | `ProcessRunner` over this binary | 2c |
+| `contractor_access::Provisioner` | `probe/src/relay/contractor_access.rs` | `provision(grant)` / `deprovision()` for this person's own grant, one at a time, in order | `PendingSeatTokens`: holds nothing | 2c |
+
+`relay serve` builds its plugins with `local::plugins`: `LocalSessions`
+(Codex and Claude discovery over a `process::ProcessTable`, fleet-owned
+sessions left out), `LocalInjector`, `ClaudeSettings` and the relay-send
+socket at its platform path; `account::with_account` adds the account,
+uploader and telemetry. Tests build the core with fakes
+of each.
+
+`CloudAccess::request` takes paths relative to `<site>/cloud/api/v1`
+(`/members`, `/workspaces/{id}/messaging/identity/credential`), so a caller
+cannot double the `/cloud` prefix.
+
+## Relaycast
+
+Every Relaycast call goes through the published `relaycast` crate (10.0.0). Its API errors keep the full error body, so the request log records Relaycast's `plan`, `upgrade_available` and `upgrade_url` on a busy answer.
+The one exception is `relay::sdk_gaps`, a minimal typed client for surface
+the SDK does not cover the way the desktop needs; each item there is an
+upstream request and is deleted once the SDK has it.
+
+| Endpoint | Auth | SDK |
+|---|---|---|
+| `POST /v1/agents` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::register_agent` — **gap**: `CreateAgentRequest` has no `direct_machine_prefix` or `auto_join_general` (`sdk_gaps::register_agent`) |
+| `DELETE /v1/agents/{name}` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::delete_agent` |
+| `GET /v1/agents?status=` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::list_agents` — **gap**: `Agent` has no `address` (`sdk_gaps::list_agents`) |
+| `GET /v1/agents/{name}` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::get_agent` — **gap**: `Agent` has no `address` (`sdk_gaps::get_agent`) |
+| `POST /v1/agents/heartbeat` | `at_` | `AgentClient::heartbeat` |
+| `GET /v1/agent` | `at_` | `AgentClient::me` |
+| `GET /v1/workspace` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::workspace_info` — **gap**: `Workspace` requires `api_key_hash`, which the server no longer sends (`sdk_gaps::workspace_identity`) |
+| `POST /v1/agent/node-token` | `at_` | **gap**: no public method (`sdk_gaps::mint_node_token`, over the SDK's `HttpClient`) |
+| `WS /v1/node/ws` | `nt_` | **gap**: `WsClient` acks every `deliver` on the socket (terminal, before injection), omits `machine_id` from `node.register`, heartbeats every 30 s instead of 15 s, signals `Open` before the registration reply, and cannot send `origin_surface` (`sdk_gaps::open_node_socket`) |
+| `GET /v1/deliveries` | `at_` | `AgentClient::deliveries` — **gap**: `DeliveryMessage` has no `agent_address` or `metadata` (relayfile path) (`sdk_gaps::deliveries`) |
+| `POST /v1/deliveries/{id}/ack` / `fail` | `at_` | `AgentClient::ack_delivery` / `fail_delivery` |
+| `POST /v1/channels`, `…/join`, `…/leave`, `GET /v1/channels/{name}` | `at_` | `AgentClient::ensure_joined_channel`, `join_channel`, `leave_channel`, `get_channel` |
+| `DELETE /v1/channels/{name}` | `rk_` | `AgentClient::archive_channel`, built with the workspace key |
+| `POST` / `GET` / `DELETE /v1/webhooks` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::create_webhook`, `list_webhooks`, `delete_webhook` |
+| `POST` / `GET` / `DELETE /v1/subscriptions` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::create_subscription`, `list_subscriptions`, `delete_subscription` |
+| `POST /v1/agents/{name}/subscription-channel` | `rk_` | **gap**: no method (`sdk_gaps::subscription_channel`) |
+| `POST /v1/integrations/relayfile/inbound-target` | `rk_` | **gap**: no method (`sdk_gaps::relayfile_inbound_target`) |
+| `POST /v1/dm` | `at_` | `AgentClient::dm` for a name — **gap**: `SendDmRequest` has no `address` (exact `agent@machine` endpoint) (`sdk_gaps::dm_address`) |
+| `POST /v1/messages/{id}/replies` | `at_` | `AgentClient::reply` |
+| `GET /v1/dm/conversations` | `at_` | `AgentClient::dm_conversations` — **gap**: participants are flattened to names, losing the immutable `agent_id` exact-address proof needs (`sdk_gaps::dm_conversations`) |
+| `GET /v1/dm/{id}/messages` | `at_` | `AgentClient::dm_messages` — **gap**: `MessageWithMeta` has no `agent_address` or `thread_id` (`sdk_gaps::dm_messages`) |
+| `GET /v1/messages/{id}` | `at_` | `AgentClient::message` — same gap (`sdk_gaps::message`) |
+| `GET /v1/workspace` | `rk_` | `RelayCast::workspace_info` |
+
+Every gap is still a call through the SDK's own `HttpClient` (auth,
+envelopes, retries and errors are the SDK's).
+
+Cross-cutting SDK gaps: `RelayCast` and `AgentClient` cannot set the origin
+client/version (only `HttpClient` can; the gaps send `relay-desktop` and the
+desktop's version), and `HttpClient` follows redirects,
+where the desktop sends credentials only to the validated origin and refuses
+redirects. The canonical host is `https://cast.agentrelay.com`.
+
+## Push
+
+`relay::push` keeps one direct node socket per registered agent: mint a node
+token with the agent token, open `/v1/node/ws`, send `node.register` with the
+registration's machine address, heartbeat every 15 s. Correlated presence
+acknowledgements replace REST heartbeats as described above; node liveness
+alone never suppresses them. The reply to
+`register-…` makes the channel `live` and wakes a queue read; a `deliver`
+frame wakes with the frame; an ended socket wakes a queue read and reconnects
+after `min(30, 2^min(n,5)) × U(0.5, 1)` seconds with a fresh token. The
+socket never acknowledges: the delivery runtime acks over HTTP once the
+message is in the session. `Core::sync_push` keeps exactly one channel per
+agent and restarts one whose origin, token or machine address changed.

+
+One-time moves from earlier macOS builds (`LegacyMigration`): a diagnostics
+opt-out and the contractor-access flag kept in UserDefaults reach the core
+once as `settings.set`; Skip conversations move from
+`~/Library/Application Support/AgentRelay/Conversations` to
+`<app data>/Conversations` before the core reads them (an existing file stays
+the core's); the anonymous id, the mailbox device id (the core issues a new
+one once), dismissed contractor seats, incoming-policy recovery markers and
+the login-item flag are then forgotten.
+
+### Linux (`probe/src/linux_app`)
+
+The Linux app is `agent-relay-desktop`, a binary of the probe crate built with its
+`gtk` feature: `linux_app::ui` (the GTK 4 window and the StatusNotifierItem
+tray), `linux_app::bridge` (the socket client), `linux_app::host` (child
+hosting), `linux_app::service` (the systemd user unit), `linux_app::install`
+and `linux_app::updates` (the install tree and its updates), `linux_app::prefs`
+and `linux_app::models` (wording, relative times, filters). It reads the
+registry's own types. The `.deb` depends on GTK 4 (4.6 or later) and librsvg
+only. The window loads people's public https avatars itself, as a view
+concern; nothing else in it touches the network, the stores or the probe.
+
+### Windows (`probe/src/linux_app`, built for Windows)
+
+The Windows app is the same `agent-relay-desktop` program, built natively with MSYS2's
+clang toolchain and GTK 4 (`scripts/build-windows.sh`). The modules that touch
+the platform have Windows counterparts behind the same traits and wording:
+`linux_app::service` is the per-user **Agent Relay (<account>)** logon task, which runs
+`agent-relay-desktop.exe --headless` (it spawns the core and waits, where Linux
+`exec`s it); `linux_app::ui::tray` is a notification-area icon with the same
+menu; `linux_app::ui::desktop` opens links with `ShellExecute` and shows
+Windows toast notifications; `linux_app::install` and `linux_app::updates`
+are the per-user tree under `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\`,
+the verified release zip, the Start menu shortcut and the `agentrelay://`
+handler under `HKEY_CURRENT_USER`. The zip carries the GTK runtime beside
+`agent-relay-desktop.exe` and `agent-relay-probe.exe`. Harnesses that are Unix-only
+tools (Muse, Devin, Grok CLI, Hermes, OpenClaw, OpenCode existing-session
+injection, Pi) are compiled out on Windows and the core reports them
+unavailable; Claude Code and Codex work in full. See
+[windows/README.md](../windows/README.md).
+
+## Verification
+
+`cargo test` in `probe/` runs the core against an in-process fake Relaycast
+(HTTP routes, the node socket and relayfile-cloud's routes on one loopback
+port, keeping agents, queues, channels, webhooks, subscriptions and DMs) with
+fake sessions, a fake injector and a fake Cloud, and drives the real daemon
+binary with a cleared environment. Session discovery and caller
+identification run against a fake process table (`process::FakeProcesses`);
+the Codex and Claude routes against in-process fakes of `codex queue`, the
+app-server proxy, the Codex app's IPC socket and Claude Code's peer inbox; the
+fleet against a fake broker; the relay-send socket over a real Unix socket
+with fake callers. On Linux CI, `probe/tests/linux_app_core_e2e.rs` drives the
+built core through the app's bridge client (hosting, the snapshot, workspace
+verification, launch at login, a device sign-in and its cancel,
+`agent-relay-desktop --headless`) against fake Relaycast and Cloud in an empty home,
+and the GTK app starts under Xvfb against `agent-relay-fake-core`. No broker,
+PTY runtime or agent harness is started by any test, and no test can find a
+real `codex` or `claude`.
+
+```sh
+agent-relay-probe relay serve &
+agent-relay-probe relay call status.get --json
+agent-relay-probe relay call workspace.refresh --json
+agent-relay-probe relay call agents.list --json
+agent-relay-probe relay call roster.list --json
+agent-relay-probe relay call sessions.list --json
+agent-relay-probe relay call fleet.list --json
+curl -s --unix-socket "$(cat ~/.agentworkforce/desktop/relay-socket)" http://relay/whoami
+agent-relay-probe relay call daemon.shutdown --json
+```
+
+A Connect inbox read that remains pending across heartbeat intervals does not
+stop later presence cohorts or pending refusal settlement attempts. Each timer
+refreshes the current registrations before scheduling due work; cohorts remain
+single-flight and retain per-workspace pacing.
+
+Native spawn controls use the same authenticated, same-user core bridge as the apps.
+The named caller must remain a non-archived local registration with a stored token
+and an exact origin/workspace-key match to the active workspace. The core never
+returns that token. Invoke and release require a persisted caller-chosen
+idempotency key (at least 16 ASCII letters, digits, underscores or hyphens).
+The fixed native routes go through the SDK diagnostic HTTP boundary; there is no
+caller-controlled URL, header, credential, arbitrary action or HTTP method.
+Release claims under `spawn-control-releases/` store only immutable target
+identities; their filenames scope keys to workspace and caller without storing
+credentials. The control bridge adds no user-facing layout or platform-specific UI.
+
+```sh
+agent-relay-probe relay call spawn.targets --json
+agent-relay-probe relay call spawn.status --params '{"caller_name":"my-local-agent","action":"spawn","invocation_id":"invocation_id_from_receipt"}' --json
+```

+# Native session titles
+
+The shared core exposes `sessions.title.capability` with `{source, session_id}`
+and `sessions.title.set` with `{source, session_id, title}`. Identity comes from
+provider discovery/configuration; callers cannot supply a file path, endpoint,
+credential, or process. Titles are trimmed and limited to 200 Unicode characters
+without control or directional/invisible formatting characters. Hermes imposes
+its native 100-character limit. A successful write returns the native title.
+Writes for one source/session are serialized, including after client disconnect.
+
+No rename starts a model turn, resumes a conversation, archives a session, or
+changes the agent’s Relay name/address. There is no persistent Relay-only title.
+
+| Harness | Native route and availability |
+| --- | --- |
+| Codex | `thread/name/set` on the shared app-server proxy, using the configured Codex home/SQLite home; requires an existing unarchived thread and a reachable app-server. |
+| Claude Code (local) | Append the native `custom-title` metadata record used by Anthropic’s `rename_session` SDK. Exact UUID in one configured shared Claude folder; symlinks, duplicate files, empty/partial transcripts are refused. A running Claude UI may show the new name when it next reloads its session metadata. |
+| OpenCode | Native session update through the authenticated managed server or live Relay plugin. Existing plugin processes must reload the updated plugin to advertise title editing. |
+| Grok | `x.ai/session/rename` through a kernel-verified existing/spawned leader binding. The session must already be connected; rename does not load or prompt it. Older Grok versions may refuse this metadata RPC. |
+| Devin CLI (local) | Exact-ID transaction on the existing native `sessions.db` title column; no database creation, transcript rewrite, or activity-timestamp change. The Devin UI reads it when its session list refreshes. |
+| Pi | The bundled extension invokes `setSessionName` and confirms through `getSessionName`. Run `/reload` in an existing session after the extension updates. Expiring metadata requests use a separate channel from message delivery. |
+| OpenClaw | The root/agent-scoped history identity resolves to one Gateway conversation, verified against its local SQLite window or legacy session index. `sessions.patch` sets its label with `expectedSessionId`; older Gateways that reject this precondition are not retried without it. Custom config files and `OPENCLAW_HOME`/`OPENCLAW_PROFILE` overrides are currently unavailable, as are isolated cron run keys. A Relay agent ID is not a conversation ID. |
+| Hermes | Resolve the history provider’s default/profile/custom-root identity to an exact native session in a configured local Hermes root, then call `hermes sessions rename` with that home and require matching database readback. Requires the Hermes CLI. |
+| Muse | Unavailable: Relay-owned Muse spawns do not expose a verified native title-mutation route. |
+| Cursor | Unavailable: there is no verified native title-mutation route in this integration. |
+| Oh My Pi (`omp`) | Unavailable: history import supports Oh My Pi, but its native session manager has no Relay control binding. The Pi extension route does not apply to Oh My Pi. Rename it in Oh My Pi. |
+| Antigravity (`antigravity`) | Unavailable: history import has no verified native title-mutation route in this integration. Rename it in Antigravity. |
+| Claude Cloud, Devin Cloud, Cursor Cloud, Capy, Replicas | Unavailable: the current cloud integrations do not expose a verified native title-mutation route. Local metadata must not masquerade as a cloud title update. |
+
+Availability checks cover every displayed source, with a reason when editing is
+unavailable. An unsupported or older provider returns an error, never a false
+success or a prompt asking the model to rename itself.
+
+## Desktop interaction
+
+The title editor appears only in the open session's header. **Rename** makes the
+title editable without an input box. Enter, **Done**, or moving focus outside the
+editor commits; Escape cancels. Focus changes are briefly debounced so suggestion
+and cancel controls remain usable. Typing and unchanged titles do not trigger
+native writes. Session navigation cancels pending delayed submissions.
+
+Opening the session preloads its saved pipeline title. The sparkle applies that
+suggestion to the draft without a new generation or immediate save. Failed saves
+roll back the displayed title and retain the rejected draft. The table remains a
+navigation surface, without rename controls or title-preload requests.
+
+## Verification
+
+Backend tests use temporary native metadata, fake provider transports and fake
+core plugins. Pi extension tests verify metadata-only renaming, expiration,
+wrong-session rejection and continued message delivery around malformed requests.
+Tests do not rename real sessions.

+# Agent Relay for Windows: plan of attack
+
+Goal: a Windows app with the same features, layout and wording as the macOS
+and Linux apps, built and tested on Windows, shipped from the same release.
+
+## Decision: one GTK app for Linux and Windows
+
+The Linux app (`probe/src/linux_app`, GTK 4, ~32k lines of Rust) is already
+a thin client of the relay core with the Mac's layout and wording, its own
+light and dark palettes (`ui/theme.rs`) and an in-process fake core for
+tests. GTK 4 is a first-class Windows toolkit (MSYS2 ships it prebuilt for
+x64 and ARM64; GIMP, Inkscape and Zrythm ship it), so the Windows app is the
+**same binary built on Windows**, not a rewrite in WPF or WinUI. Every page,
+dialog, row and sentence ports unchanged; only the five modules that touch
+the platform get a Windows implementation. The WPF placeholder in
+`windows/` goes.
+
+| Module | Linux | Windows |
+|---|---|---|
+| `linux_app/bridge`, `host`, `fake_core` | Unix socket | Named pipe, through the core's shared transport (below) |
+| `linux_app/service.rs` | `agent-relay.service` systemd user unit | A per-user logon task (`schtasks`, no admin) running `agent-relay-desktop --headless`; same `UserService` trait and labels |
+| `linux_app/ui/tray.rs` | StatusNotifierItem (`ksni`) | Notification-area icon (`tray-icon` crate, Shell_NotifyIcon); same `Tray` trait and `menu()` model |
+| `linux_app/ui/desktop.rs` | `xdg-open`, `Gio.Notification`, terminal emulators | ShellExecute, WinRT toast notifications, Windows Terminal / cmd |
+| `linux_app/install.rs`, `updates.rs` | `usr/` tree, tarball or `.deb`, `.desktop` launcher | `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\` tree, verified `.zip` from the same GitHub release, Start-menu shortcut and `agentrelay://` protocol under HKCU |
+| `bin/agent-relay-desktop.rs` | `exec` into the core for `--headless` | spawn and wait |
+
+The core (`agent-relay-probe relay serve`) is the real port. It is 200k
+lines and Unix-bound in a few concentrated ways:
+
+| Concern | Today | Windows |
+|---|---|---|
+| Bridge socket (`relay/daemon.rs`, `server.rs`, `peer.rs`, `paths.rs`, `cli.rs`) | `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.sock`, `SO_PEERCRED` | `relay/transport`: one `CoreListener`/`CoreStream` pair; Unix socket on Unix, `\.\pipe\agent-relay-<hash of path>` on Windows with a DACL limited to the current user, so the OS enforces same-user admission. The lock file keeps its path. |
+| Agent-facing sockets (`relay/local.rs` session socket, `outbound.rs` relay-send) | Unix sockets | The same transport |
+| `nix`, `libc`, `signal-hook`, `std::os::unix` (98 files) | signals, `exec`, process groups, 0600/0700 perms, `getuid` | `cfg(unix)` and Windows equivalents (`CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP`, `TerminateProcess`, `tokio::signal::ctrl_c`, permissions as no-ops inside the user profile) |
+| Harnesses that are Unix-only tools (Muse, Devin host, Grok CLI, Hermes, OpenClaw gateway socket, OpenCode existing-session injection, Pi extension) | built in | `cfg(unix)`; the core reports them unavailable on Windows and the app's Settings rows say so. Claude Code and Codex (the Windows-native harnesses) work in full. |
+| Keychain | `security-framework` on macOS, 0600 file on Linux | The Linux file path |
+| Home | `$HOME` | `%USERPROFILE%` |
+
+## Toolchain
+
+MSYS2 CLANGARM64 (this machine) and CLANG64 (x64 CI): `pacman` gives GTK 4,
+clang, pkgconf and a Rust toolchain for the `*-pc-windows-gnullvm` targets
+without administrator rights. The app links GTK dynamically and ships the
+GTK runtime (DLLs, GLib schemas, pixbuf loaders) beside it in the zip.
+
+## Phases
+
+0. Toolchain on this machine; `cargo check` of the core and the app for
+   Windows to produce the error inventory; branch `feat/windows-app`.
+1. In parallel, one agent each, strict file ownership:
+   - **A** core transport: `relay/transport`, `paths`, `peer`, `server`,
+     `daemon` listener, `cli` client, `local`, `outbound`, app `bridge`,
+     `host`, `fake_core`, and the tests that open sockets.
+   - **B1** core platform shims, first half: `probe/src/probe`, `cloud.rs`,
+     `delivery`, `migration.rs`, `relay/{process,spawn,claude*,codex,
+     login_item,detach,files,account,quota,outbox}`.
+   - **B2** core platform shims, second half: `relay/{harness,muse,devin,
+     grok,hermes,openclaw,opencode*,pi,existing_session,managed_sessions}`:
+     gate Unix-only harnesses, keep their contract and wording.
+   - **C** app platform modules: `service`, `tray`, `desktop`, `install`,
+     `updates`, `prefs`, `bin/agent-relay-desktop.rs`, theme following Windows
+     dark mode.
+   - **D** packaging, CI, docs: `scripts/build-windows.sh` (under MSYS2),
+     `windows/` (icon, README), CI `windows` job on x64 and ARM64 runners
+     replacing the placeholder, release matrix, `docs/*`, `README.md`,
+     `AGENTS.md`, `CHANGELOG.md`.
+2. Integrate: build both binaries here, run `--lib linux_app`, the GTK
+   harness and the hosting tests on Windows, run the app against the real
+   core on this machine, screenshot it.
+3. Fix loop, review, PR.
+
+## Done looks like
+
+- `agent-relay-desktop.exe` opens the same window as Linux: sessions table, header,
+  status bar, Settings panes, Agents, Team, Messages, tray menu, sign-in.
+- The core runs as a logon task or as the app's child, on a named pipe, and
+  Claude Code and Codex sessions on this computer list, upload and receive
+  messages.
+- `cargo test --features gtk --lib linux_app`, `--test linux_app_gtk` and
+  `--test linux_app_hosting` pass on Windows; CI builds and tests on
+  `windows-latest` and `windows-11-arm`; the release publishes
+  `AgentRelay-Windows-x64.zip` and `AgentRelay-Windows-arm64.zip`.
+
+## Building and packaging
+
+Everything builds natively inside MSYS2, in the shell for the architecture:
+CLANG64 on x64, CLANGARM64 on arm64, with
+`mingw-w64-clang-{x86_64,aarch64}-{toolchain,rust,gtk4,pkgconf,librsvg,ntldd}`
+plus `zip` and `unzip`. Rust targets `x86_64-pc-windows-gnullvm` and
+`aarch64-pc-windows-gnullvm`, the MSYS2 toolchain's host triples.
+
+`scripts/build-windows.sh --version V --arch x64|arm64 [--out DIR] [--app EXE --probe EXE]`
+builds `agent-relay-desktop.exe` (with `gtk`) and `agent-relay-probe.exe` (without)
+in release mode when `--app`/`--probe` are omitted, and assembles the tree the
+app's `install::windows` module describes:
+
+```
+AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>/
+  bin/agent-relay-desktop.exe, bin/agent-relay-probe.exe
+  bin/*.dll                       the closure of both exes, the loaders and the helpers (ntldd -R), from the prefix's bin
+  bin/gdbus.exe, bin/gspawn-win64-helper{,-console}.exe
+  lib/gdk-pixbuf-2.0/2.10.0/      png, jpeg, gif, bmp, ico and svg loaders; loaders.cache (relative paths)
+  share/glib-2.0/schemas/gschemas.compiled   compiled from GTK's own schemas only
+  share/gtk-4.0/emoji/            emoji chooser translations
+  share/icons/hicolor/            index.theme, apps/agent-relay.svg, symbolic/apps/agent-relay-symbolic.svg
+  share/icons/Adwaita/            index.theme and symbolic/ only (no cursors, no icon-theme.cache)
+  share/icons/agent-relay.ico     rendered from the SVG mark (rsvg-convert, PNG entries 16 to 256)
+  NOTICES.txt                     each bundled package, its version, license, upstream and license texts (pacman)
+```
+
+Then `AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>.zip` (the tree as one top-level
+folder) and `AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip`
+(`agent_relay/helpers/agent-relay-probe.exe` and the DLLs it needs, the
+Linux and macOS probe archives' layout), each with a `sha256sum`-format
+`.sha256`. About 27 MB zipped and 66 MB unpacked, most of it GTK and its
+GStreamer media dependency.
+
+Last, with Inno Setup 6 (`ISCC.exe` from `$ISCC`, `PATH`, or Inno Setup's
+machine or per-user folder; `--installer` makes it required, `--no-installer`
+skips it), `AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe` and its `.sha256`,
+compiled from `windows/installer/AgentRelay.iss` with `/DVersion`, `/DArch`,
+`/DSourceDir` (the tree) and `/DOutputDir`. The installer:
+
+- installs per user with no UAC prompt (`PrivilegesRequired=lowest`) and no
+  folder page, into `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>`,
+  the zip's layout, so in-app updates keep working after it; each version
+  gets its own folder (`UsePreviousAppDir=no`), and Setup only installs on
+  its architecture (`x64compatible` or `arm64`);
+- writes the Start menu shortcut at the app's own path, an optional desktop
+  shortcut (unticked), runs `agent-relay-desktop.exe --install-launcher` (handler and
+  notification identity, also when silent) and starts the app;
+- before installing, ends an open window of an older version under the
+  install root (one instance per account, so it would swallow the new
+  launch), leaves the background service running, and afterwards points the
+  logon task, when there is one, at the new version, restarting it if it
+  ran, as `updates::windows::repoint_task` does;
+- keeps its uninstaller in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay` (outside any
+  version folder) under a fixed `AppId`, so Installed apps lists one Agent
+  Relay. An in-app update rewrites that entry's `DisplayVersion`,
+  `InstallLocation` and `DisplayIcon` (`install::windows::UNINSTALL_KEY`)
+  and a desktop shortcut into the install root, with the Start menu
+  shortcut;
+- on uninstall ends and deletes the `Agent Relay (<account>)` task, ends
+  every program running from the install root, deletes the whole root (all
+  versions), the shortcuts, the `agentrelay://` key when it runs this
+  install, the AppUserModelId key and an app-owned `Run` value. Data in
+  `%USERPROFILE%\.agentworkforce` and `%APPDATA%\agent-relay` stays.
+
+It is not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen warns on first open; signing it
+with the executables is a follow-up.
+
+`bin/gdbus.exe` is what keeps the app to one instance: GApplication's D-Bus
+uniqueness works on Windows as on Linux once GLib has started it as the
+session bus (`gdbus.exe _win32_run_session_bus`, found beside libgio), and a
+later launch forwards its command line over it and exits. Only the first
+instance takes the hold that keeps a tray app running (in `startup`, not
+before `run`), so the forwarding launch ends as soon as its call returns.
+
+No binary asset is checked in: the `.ico` is rendered at build time, and the
+script passes it to cargo as `AGENT_RELAY_WINDOWS_ICON`, which `probe/build.rs`
+compiles with `windres` into an icon and `VERSIONINFO` resource linked into
+every executable (Windows targets only; without the variable nothing changes).
+Without `rsvg-convert` the tree has no `.ico` and the script says so.
+
+CI (`.github/workflows/desktop-ci.yml`, job `windows`) runs on `windows-latest` (x64)
+and `windows-11-arm` (arm64) with `msys2/setup-msys2`: it builds the package
+with the script (`--installer`; Inno Setup is installed with choco or winget
+where the runner lacks it), checks the core's bridge commands, runs the
+packaged core with only `System32` on `PATH`, installs and uninstalls with
+the Setup program silently and checks what it leaves, uploads the zips and
+the installer, then runs
+`--lib linux_app`, `--test linux_app_gtk` and `--test linux_app_hosting`.
+Checkouts use LF line endings (`core.autocrlf false`; `.gitattributes` keeps
+`*.sh` LF). The release workflow's `build-windows` job does the same at the
+release version, and `publish` adds the versioned zips and installers, their
+stable-named copies (`AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>.zip`,
+`AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip`, `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe`)
+and regenerated `.sha256` files to the release.
+
+## Status
+
+In this PR (packaging, CI and docs):
+
+- `scripts/build-windows.sh`, the tree and both zips; `probe/build.rs` embeds
+  the icon and version when asked.
+- The WPF placeholder in `windows/` is gone; `windows/README.md` covers
+  installing, the logon task, building with MSYS2, tests and the gaps.
+- CI `windows` job on x64 and arm64 in place of the .NET placeholder build;
+  the release builds, publishes and names the Windows zips and the per-user
+  Setup program (`windows/installer/AgentRelay.iss`, Inno Setup 6).
+- `README.md`, `docs/relay-core.md`, `docs/workspace-layout.md`,
+  `linux/README.md`, `AGENTS.md`, `CHANGELOG.md` and the release notes name
+  Windows.
+
+Verified on this machine (Windows 11 on arm64, MSYS2 CLANGARM64): the script's
+assembly end to end with stand-in executables (MSYS2's own `gtk4-demo.exe`
+and `gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders.exe`): the DLL closure, a bundled program that
+runs from the unpacked zip with only `System32` on `PATH` and finds all six
+pixbuf loaders through the relative `loaders.cache`, a GTK program that starts
+from the tree, the `.ico` (read by .NET's `System.Drawing.Icon`), `windres`
+compiling the resource script, and the zips and checksums. Smart App Control
+on this machine blocks cargo's build scripts, so the Rust build, the tests and
+the real `agent-relay-desktop.exe` run first in CI.
+
+Deferred:
+
+- Code signing of the installer, executables and DLLs (Authenticode): until
+  then SmartScreen warns on first open and Smart App Control must be off.
+- A winget manifest for the Setup program (MSIX is not planned: the
+  per-user Setup keeps the zip's layout, which the in-app updater relies on).
+- A headless install script like `linux/install.sh` for Windows servers.
+- Linking the core statically so the probe zip needs no DLLs.
+- The Unix-only harnesses (Muse, Devin, Grok CLI, Hermes, OpenClaw, OpenCode
+  existing-session injection, Pi) on Windows.
+- Adwaita 51 has no `emblem-ok-symbolic`, `external-link-symbolic` or
+  `utilities-system-monitor-symbolic`, which the app names, and
+  `adwaita-icon-theme-legacy` does not carry them either (it holds only
+  full-color PNGs, no symbolic icons); no MSYS2 package does. GTK falls back
+  to a missing-icon image unless the app ships its own SVGs or uses names
+  Adwaita 51 has (`object-select-symbolic`, `web-browser-symbolic` or
+  `insert-link-symbolic`, for example).

+# Workspace layout
+
+The experimental **Continue Claude from mobile (Experimental)** setting is
+shared by macOS and GTK (Linux/Windows), off by default and unavailable on older
+cores. Enabling it first installs the owned `agent-relay-mobile` skills-directory
+plugin in the configured Claude directory; installation failure keeps it off.
+Claude Code 2.1.310 or later in the 2.1 release series is required. After
+enabling, restart Claude or use `/reload-plugins` once in an existing session;
+later sessions load it automatically. Messages from the verified machine owner become native user
+turns in the same running session. Reading a mobile conversation does nothing.
+This candidate does not invoke `/background`, kill Claude, or reconstruct its
+permissions. Unsupported versions or unverifiable native processes are refused.
+
+The native plugin uses the session socket; kernel process identity selects the
+session and immutable Relaycast identity selects the owner. Native tool prompts
+use the existing sanitized approval notices. An owner approval allows only that
+request with its original tool input, never changes permission rules, and expires
+after five minutes. A disconnected HTTP poll can retry the same request;
+disabling the setting, replacing the native process or changing its binding
+invalidates it. Native question
+flows remain in Claude. Mobile status is display-only metadata, and queued sends
+remain queued until a delivery receipt arrives. Claude itself opens the native Unix-socket connection; tool subprocesses are
+refused. Windows keeps the setting visible but disabled until Claude's native
+transport is verified with named pipes. There is no subprocess fallback. No
+separate mobile takeover or return controls are introduced.
+
+The shared core's `probe/src/relay/diagnostics.rs` retains explicit,
+credential-redacted diagnostics in rotating `core.log` files. macOS uses
+`~/Library/Logs/Agent Relay` (or `Agent Relay Dev`); Linux and Windows use
+the resolved app data directory's `logs` folder. Rotation happens during
+operation at 1 MiB with three backups; stderr remains available to terminal
+and systemd journal consumers. Raw child stdio and request/message bodies
+are not captured.
+
+Existing Pi sessions appear in the session table after loading the bundled
+extension with `/reload`. Enable **Receives messages** to register one. Messages
+wait for Pi to be idle, and completed final answers return through Relay on
+both platforms. See [Pi delivery](pi-existing-session-injection.md).
+
+Pi queues preserve arrival order while busy, and channel batch answers reply to
+the last post. A failed extension installation remains visible in status details
+and Settings → Relay on both platforms; fix the conflict or permissions and
+restart Agent Relay to retry, then run `/reload` in Pi.
+
+Spawn recovery and startup diagnostics run in the shared core on both platforms.
+Known spawn origins survive legacy store merges; Codex origins omitted by an old
+writer can be restored from matching local receipts and Relaycast identity.
+Failed launches report structured, redacted harness reasons and retire ended
+intents after acknowledged cleanup. OpenCode warns when model startup remains
+unverified; Grok reports clearly missing default credentials as unavailable.
+
+Replicas spawning is an agent operation through Cloud, like Capy. The shared
+core exposes environment listing, durable spawn/status, and release methods
+([contract](relay-core.md)); both desktop clients receive the same cloud roster.
+There are no new session-table controls. The existing local
+[operator bridge](../integrations/replicas/README.md) can remain during migration.
+
+Cursor Cloud is also an agent operation through Cloud, not a local spawn
+target and not the discontinued `cursor-agent` CLI integration. The shared core
+exposes model and agent listing, idempotent launch, status and results,
+follow-up injection, and reversible archive/unarchive methods. Agent Relay
+Cloud keeps the per-user Cursor key, registers the hosted session with
+`session_kind: cursor-cloud`, and translates Relay DMs into Cursor's native
+steer-or-queue follow-up. Both apps show the Cursor mark and **Cursor Cloud**
+wording for those remote roster rows; neither app adds a platform-only form.
+See [Cursor Cloud agents](cursor-cloud.md).
+
+Spawned-agent settings render the core's harness descriptors on both platforms.
+Muse appears when its trusted CLI is available, with its sandbox on by default
+and the same full-access wording on macOS and Linux.
+The shared core records Muse's detached host before launching its child so a
+restart during startup can recover or stop the exact owned process group.
+Muse sessions started outside Agent Relay are not listed or messaged.
+
+Native Codex spawns remain messageable after Codex unloads an idle thread:
+the shared core resumes the registered, unarchived thread before starting
+the follow-up turn. Ordinary stopped sessions still wait for their host.
+
+Spawned Muse and Devin expose a per-launch MCP tool for Relay messages. It uses
+the authenticated local session socket and accepts only the recipient, message
+text, and optional reply parent. Shell sandboxing stays enabled by default;
+Relay replies do not require granting shell access to the socket.
+
+The macOS, Linux and Windows windows open directly to the session list on this computer.
+One 64-point header contains the 24-point Agent Relay mark and 19-point canonical wordmark, **Search or filter sessions…**, the icon-only **Table display** control,
+and the signed-in person's avatar menu. The
+avatar menu contains **Settings…**, **Log out…**, and **Update available** when
+applicable. Open Settings with **⌘,** on macOS or **Ctrl+,** on Linux and Windows. The logo returns to Sessions. There is no persistent navigation rail.
+Native window controls and dragging remain platform-owned.
+
+| Region | Contents |
+| --- | --- |
+| Global header | Sessions logo, search, Table display icon, avatar menu |
+| Table | Session (including Active indicator), Project, Updated, Receives messages, Upload (status icon and switch) |
+| Status bar | Upload state, local session count, update download button when available, pause/resume, and **Live Agents on Relay: N** |
+
+Selecting **Live Agents on Relay** opens Sessions with `is:active is:on-relay`, replacing
+previous search filters and returning from any open transcript.
+
+When Capy is detected (`/Applications/Capy.app` or `~/Applications/Capy.app`
+on macOS, or the `~/.capy` directory Capy's device connector creates on a
+paired computer on either platform), a **Capy detected** card sits above the
+session table: "Put your Capy threads on Agent Relay so other agents can
+message them and their conversations appear in Sessions. Capy asks you to
+approve the Agent Relay plugin once." **Set up in Capy** copies a prompt that
+links Capy to the `setting-up-capy-on-agent-relay` skill, which has Capy
+propose the Agent Relay plugin and run the setup, opens
+https://capy.ai, and shows **Prompt copied. Paste it into a Capy thread.**
+**Not now** hides the card for good (`capySetupDismissed` in UserDefaults on
+macOS and `desktop.json` on Linux). Detection runs at launch.
+
+When the core reports Devin's hooks off (`devin_direct_delivery` false: Devin
+has run here and Agent Relay's hooks are not in
+`~/.config/devin/config.json`), a **Devin found** card sits above the session
+table on both apps: "Put the Devin sessions you open on the relay, so they
+appear here and can be messaged, the way Claude Code and Codex sessions are?
+This adds Agent Relay's hooks to ~/.config/devin/config.json." **Turn On**
+sends `settings.set` with `devin_direct_delivery: true`; the core's error, if
+any, shows under the card, which goes once the hooks are on. **Not now** hides
+it for good (`devinSetupDismissed` in UserDefaults on macOS and `desktop.json`
+on Linux); the Settings row still turns the hooks on later. The core never
+adds the hooks on its own.
+
+The single 64-point header and table share 24-point horizontal gutters.
+The search panel's **Messages** section offers **Receives messages** and
+**Does not receive messages**. These mutually exclusive choices add readable
+chips to the search bar; removing the chip includes both message states again. They match
+confirmed local registrations (including offline sessions) or their absence,
+independently of activity, and combine with all other filters without changing
+grouping or sorting. There are no separate session navigation tabs. Other computers
+and teammates remain available in Cloud. Search is hidden in Settings and while
+reading a transcript. Settings has a contextual 244-point sidebar. **Back to sessions** sits in the
+global header immediately after the wordmark, in the same position as on a transcript.
+
+Group by offers None (default), Harness, Project, Status, and Week. Week groups
+start on Monday in UTC, matching Cloud. Status means the actual upload state;
+the desktop does not infer Cloud's work-completion status from process liveness.
+Search matches local titles, projects, paths, harnesses, IDs, and relay names,
+including the earlier name of a renamed agent: `agent:` finds it by either.
+A partial or exact agent name or address finds its session; a term written
+`@reviewer` searches agent names and addresses only.
+Project uses the Git repository name when local metadata is available, so
+linked worktrees and nested directories stay grouped with their repository.
+Broker controller directories under the configured relay home are
+infrastructure, not projects, and display **—**; unrelated directories keep
+their folder name as a fallback.
+The shared core resolves project metadata off the async runtime, with at most
+four dedicated filesystem workers. Local session lists, upload history and
+previews share a 32,768-directory FIFO cache with a five-minute TTL, including
+missing names and timed-out lookups. Each lookup has a 250 ms deadline covering
+both worker admission and all filesystem operations (including canonicalization
+and Git marker checks); lists resolve concurrently rather than paying that
+budget for every row. A deadline returns the folder name without filesystem
+access. Hung reads keep their worker slot until they actually return, so repeated
+refreshes cannot exhaust async workers or create unbounded blocking threads.
+Late results cannot replace the cached fallback, and dedicated workers do not
+hold up runtime shutdown. Both desktop clients use this same core behavior.
+Session labels prefer RelayHistory's harness-provided catalog title, with the
+existing prompt-based fallback when no title is available, on both platforms.
+
+Title editing lives only in the open session's transcript header on macOS,
+Linux and Windows. The sessions table shows clickable titles without rename
+controls or title-preload requests. A quiet, always-visible **Rename** button
+with an edit icon makes the header title editable in place. The text keeps its
+font, alignment and height; there is no input border or background box.
+
+Enter or **Done** saves; Escape or **Cancel editing** discards the draft.
+Moving focus outside the whole editor saves after a short debounce, so moving
+between the text and its controls does not submit prematurely. Returning focus,
+cancelling, submitting or leaving the session retires that pending save.
+Unchanged titles do not issue a write, and typing makes no network requests.
+
+The sparkle button, **Use generated title**, fills the draft with the saved
+pipeline title and returns focus to the text. Opening a session preloads its
+existing summary, cached by harness and session identity with bounded reads.
+Preloading and using the suggestion never request a new generation. The sparkle
+appears while editing once a saved title is available; applying the suggestion
+does not save it until the person commits or leaves the editor.
+
+The shared core reports native support through `sessions.title.capability`;
+`sessions.title.set` changes the original harness title only where a supported
+route is available. An unavailable Rename button explains the harness or session
+limitation in its tooltip. There is no fallback label stored only in Relay.
+Saves update the displayed title optimistically. A failure rolls back the title,
+shows a warning with the full error in its tooltip, and reopens the rejected
+draft for correction and retry.
+Interrupted requests are retired on reconnect, and account changes clear cached
+suggestions and pending edits. Confirmed titles remain visible while discovery
+catches up, for at most one minute before refreshing authoritative state, so
+later title changes in the harness are not hidden indefinitely. A title change
+does not rename the session's Relay messaging address.
+
+Running agents and historical sessions share one table. **Filters → Activity →
+Active** adds `is:active` to search; no separate cards duplicate the same sessions.
+All filters apply together to the whole list. Active means local discovery reports
+`live`, independent of upload selection or relay registration. Inactive means no
+live local process was discovered; it does not imply the work was completed.
+
+Search accepts free text, `title: Foo`, `title:"Fix login"`, `project:cloud`,
+`harness:codex` (or `source:`), `path:`, `id:`, and `agent:`. Combine qualifiers
+with spaces (AND), quote phrases, and prefix a term with `-` to exclude it.
+`is:active`, `is:inactive`, `is:on-relay`, and `is:off-relay` filter activity/registration;
+`upload:uploaded`, `upload:local`, `upload:in-progress`, and `upload:discovering` filter
+upload state. Specific upload states such as `paused` and `queued` also work.
+
+Dates refer to the session's Updated time in UTC. `updated:2026-10-11` covers
+that whole day; `updated:>=2026-10-01` and `<`, `>`, `<=` comparisons work too.
+`updated:2026-10-01..2026-10-11` includes both days; either end can be `*` or
+empty. `after:` and `before:` exclude the named day. Invalid dates show a syntax
+hint. The menu offers Today, Last 7 days, and Last 30 days, and edits the visible
+query so constraints stay inspectable. Clear removes the whole query. The help
+popover documents the syntax. Search covers loaded history; older sessions load automatically as you approach
+the end of the list, including when filters leave the viewport underfilled.
+Sessions stay current through core events and background polling; there is no
+manual refresh or pagination control. Both platforms keep Filters open while you combine
+choices; Done, Escape, or clicking outside dismisses it. Background refreshes
+preserve the open menu and focused control. Group by closes after a selection.
+Shared fixtures exercise both search matching and how menu choices edit the
+query, including replacing source aliases and clearing date constraints.
+
+History (`uploader.sessions.list`) joins local relay discovery (`sessions.list`)
+by the core's upload key. A session appears once when both lists contain it.
+The key is the harness and the session's own id (`codex:…`, `claude:…`,
+`grok:…`, `opencode:…`, `muse:…`, `devin:…`), so a running Codex, Claude Code,
+Grok, OpenCode, Muse or Devin session on the relay is the same row as its
+transcript, and its transcript shows its real messaging state. Claude app,
+OpenClaw, Hermes and Pi relay rows have no key and are listed on their own.
+Discovered sessions awaiting upload indexing remain visible, labeled Indexing.
+Ended registrations remain visible so they can be taken off the relay. No roster
+or fleet records enter this table. Multi-machine and workspace browsing is
+available in Cloud at `/cloud/dashboard/sessions`.
+
+The table lists top-level sessions. Grok sessions explicitly marked as
+subagents stay in local history but do not appear as separate rows, even when
+Grok has not recorded their parent. The shared core applies this rule on both
+macOS and Linux, including after refreshing previously cached sessions.
+An independently selected Grok subagent is removed from the selection before
+uploads resume after upgrading; a child with a recorded parent still shares
+through that parent.
+
+Two history layouts arrive with RelayHistory 0.45.0 on both apps. Grok Bot
+(the Anysphere desktop app, distinct from the Grok CLI) is a `grok-bot` source:
+each bot is one session read from the app's local transcript store, which keeps
+roughly the last 200 entries or 7 days per bot, so only that tail is recovered.
+A Codex thread whose rollout file Codex has pruned is recovered from Codex's own
+SQLite history and keeps its replies, commands and file changes; its catalog row,
+not a transcript file, says when it changed, so selected mode follows it the way
+it follows a session in a shared database.
+
+RelayHistory adds OpenClaw (an `openclaw` source) on both apps: each
+OpenClaw agent's sessions (its main chat, Telegram and other channel chats,
+Agent Relay conversations, cron and subagent runs) are read from under
+`~/.openclaw` (or `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR`), and follow the session-sharing mode
+like every other source. RelayHistory 0.47.0 reads every OpenClaw from 2026.3:
+the agent's `openclaw-agent.sqlite` from 2026.8.1, and the `sessions/*.jsonl`
+transcripts with `sessions.json` before that. A session OpenClaw has imported
+from its JSONL store into the database is read once. From RelayHistory 0.49.0
+an OpenClaw session is one conversation key, as OpenClaw's own session list
+shows it: every reset and every isolated cron or heartbeat run of that key is
+part of it (one row per cron job, not one per run), and heartbeat polls are
+not prompts. Session IDs from the agent database are `<agent>:<key>` (for
+example `main:main`, `main:cron:<job>`).
+
+RelayHistory 0.48.0 adds two sources on both apps, which follow the
+session-sharing mode like every other source. Antigravity (an `antigravity`
+source) reads each conversation under the App, CLI and IDE brain directories
+(`~/.gemini/antigravity/brain`, `~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/brain`,
+`~/.gemini/antigravity-ide/brain`), preferring a conversation's full transcript
+over its truncated compact file; user and assistant text become messages and
+every native step is kept as a marker (it records no tool-call IDs, model or
+usage). Oh My Pi (an `omp` source) reads its sessions under
+`~/.omp/agent/sessions` (or its profile and XDG data directories), with
+messages, tool calls and results and observed usage; a session in a directory
+Pi and Oh My Pi share is read once.
+
+Each row has a **Receives messages** orb and a read-only **Upload** status.
+Select rows with the left checkboxes to reveal bulk actions above the table.
+The orb is gray when off/offline, yellow while registering or connecting, and
+green only once the session is running and its push channel is live. Clicking
+it opts into receiving messages or immediately shows offline while unregistering;
+connecting can be cancelled. Hover and accessibility labels explain the state,
+action, or why a session cannot receive messages. Receiving messages also enables
+transcript upload under the core's existing policy, for every session with an
+upload key.
+Registered Grok CLI sessions join their local transcript and use Grok's title.
+
+Bulk upload requests update optimistically per session and keep other rows usable.
+Repeated clicks are serialized per session and settle on the latest choice;
+different sessions proceed independently. Failed changes roll back only the
+affected row and show its error. Listings from before a selection change are
+ignored and refreshed. Signing out discards pending UI state and late replies.
+Deleting cloud copies requires confirmation and stops future uploads while preserving local history.
+
+Every other control that changes the core follows the same pattern, on both
+platforms: the intent is recorded in a pending slot before the call, the view
+renders from it, the core's answer (or the status read after it) replaces it,
+and a failure reverts to what the core reports and shows the existing per-row
+error. A newer request supersedes an older one (the last click wins), so an
+older answer changes nothing. This covers the upload policy (the chosen row
+moves and stays usable, with a small spinner), pause and resume, retry and
+compact (the stage reads *Retrying uploads…* / *Compacting the upload
+journal…*), core settings switches (the shown settings are the confirmed ones
+with pending changes written over them), renaming an agent and registering a
+session under a name (a provisional registration without an address), sending a
+message (an echo under *You* with the caption *Sending…* until the history lists
+it; the box clears at once and is restored on failure), Incoming and Claude
+delivery changes, launch at login, fleet release (*Released* until the next
+listing) and, on macOS, contractor seat dismissal and grant revocation. Sign-in
+and log-out carry a starting and a disconnecting state on both platforms.
+
+Before sign-in the window is the split welcome: a dark panel with the Agent Relay
+logo and wordmark vertically centered above the Codex, Claude, Cursor, OpenCode,
+Grok, Muse, and Devin logos (Muse in blue), and a light sign-in panel with **Get your agents on the relay** followed by **Sign in with Google**.
+During startup, **Rounding up your agents** stays on one line beside compact pulsing bars at the content's right edge.
+The subtitle rotates every four seconds (unless reduced motion is enabled),
+starting with a randomly chosen message. Sign-in appears as soon as
+the service supplies its status; session discovery runs in the background.
+After 20 seconds without a ready service, the panel offers **Try again** and
+**Copy diagnostics** instead of continuing the animation.
+Claude Code direct-delivery preferences live in Settings; the sign-in panel has
+no checkbox or configuration text. First-run defaults preserve existing user
+choices and managed settings.
+Signing in shares nothing by itself: the install starts in **Only sessions I
+choose**, so a session uploads once its Upload switch is turned on, and keeps
+uploading as it changes. Automatic uploads of new sessions, or of all past and
+future ones, are chosen in Settings › Session sharing.
+
+## Settings
+
+Settings is grouped by task: Preferences (General, including Appearance), Sessions
+(Opening sessions, Session sharing, Messages), and Account & app
+(Account, Updates, Diagnostics). Account contains only profile and
+workspace details; log files and expandable diagnostic reports live in Diagnostics. Session deletion lives below the sharing policy and upload details.
+Update availability uses a compact sidebar dot; the update action uses an explicit
+white-on-deep-blue foreground/background pair. Settings use a 720-point reading
+column, wrapping descriptions, reserved action widths, and quiet outline icons.
+The avatar carries a small update indicator; the menu links directly to Updates.
+Detailed upload stages and journal compaction live under **Session sharing →
+Upload details**, keeping the startup view focused on session selection. When a
+problem that is not retried on its own stops uploads, session rows read **Upload
+stopped** (not **Waiting to retry**) and the upload stage offers **Retry uploads**. Uploads
+that keep failing on a server error or a dropped connection read **Waiting to
+retry** while they wait out a backoff of at most five minutes, and the upload
+stage offers **Retry uploads** too, to try again at once; a rate limit only
+waits. A Retry or Compact that could not reach the background service is sent
+on its own once the service answers again, and its "reconnecting" message
+clears without a click.
+
+General › Startup holds **Open at login** and **Keep agents connected after
+quitting**. The second is on by default: quitting leaves the background service
+delivering messages and running uploads, and the Mac's Quit control reads
+"Quit Agent Relay (agents stay connected)". Turned off, quitting stops the
+service until the app opens again, and Open at login reads "Your agents connect
+when it opens." On Linux, turning it off while the systemd unit runs first asks
+**Turn off the background service?** and turns the unit off.
+
+General › Session history shows **Keep session history (coming soon)** and the
+planned 7, 30 or 90 day and Forever (`0`) choices. The control stays disabled:
+relayhistory does not expose its retention interface yet, so Agent Relay does
+not remove older sessions automatically. The core's provisional
+`history_retention_days` adapter can persist a value for development, but the
+desktop apps do not present it as an active deletion guarantee.
+
+Relay settings retain workspace connection, Claude Code direct delivery, Grok
+leader mode, OpenCode plugin configuration, **OpenClaw agents**
+(`openclaw_gateway`; with an OpenClaw older than 2026.8.1, which cannot limit
+relay sessions, the row says so: `openclaw_unlimited_version`), **Agent Relay
+tools** under it while it is on (Connect signs OpenClaw in to the hosted Agent
+Relay MCP in the browser, with **Open Again** while it waits;
+`openclaw.relay_tools.*`), **Trusted senders** (`trusted_relay_senders`:
+relay names or addresses whose messages reach the person's own OpenClaw and
+Hermes), and **Hermes** (`hermes_agent`), both on wherever the
+agent is set up and listed only while its local gateway answers
+([openclaw-hermes-delivery.md](openclaw-hermes-delivery.md)), the Devin lifecycle hooks,
+**Show me relay messages in full** (`show_relay_messages`, off by
+default: relay messages are hidden from Codex app chats; a terminal Codex or
+Claude Code session, which only accepts visible text, shows a two-line pointer
+naming the sender and the command the agent runs to read the message; the
+agent still gets each message in full and can reply: the setting only
+changes what the person sees), **New agents join
+#general** (`auto_join_general`, off by default; applies to agents registered
+from then on), **Changed by agents** (shown once an agent has changed a
+setting through `PATCH /settings`: the latest five, newest first, each with
+the agent, the setting, its values before and after, and the time), and
+incoming-message settings. With a signed-in Devin CLI the session inventory
+additionally polls the org's Devin cloud sessions via the `devin-cloud`
+connector (cadence-gated, five minutes) so remote sessions list beside local
+ones; a connector failure surfaces as a diagnostic and never fails local
+discovery. Those cloud sessions also appear in the sessions table, hosted
+by *Devin Cloud*, and one auto-activates like a local session while the
+sign-in resolves — a message to it is posted into the session through the
+same connector's send route.
+
+The shared core's peer-message note allows work already authorized in the
+receiving session to continue within the harness's permissions. A peer message
+does not grant new approval or authorize permission/configuration changes. This wording
+is shared by hidden Codex messages and terminal `relay read` on all platforms;
+Claude's native peer-message restrictions remain in force.
+Claude Code cloud sessions on claude.ai are listed and uploaded the same way
+once the person turns on **Claude Code cloud sessions** in *Claude Code
+folders* (`claude_cloud_sessions`, off by default; an agent may turn it off
+but not on), through relayhistory's `claude-web` connector, with the
+claude.ai login of Claude Code in `~/.claude`: `~/.claude/.credentials.json`
+while its token is current, otherwise (macOS) Claude Code's
+`Claude Code-credentials` login Keychain item, handed to the connector as a
+private 0600 file under the install's data folder for the length of one pass.
+macOS's prompt to read that item appears only when the person acts: turning
+the setting on (the row explains it and asks for **Always Allow**) or opening a
+cloud session. Capture passes read the item quietly — with Keychain user
+interaction off, so they never prompt — on a thread of their own, waiting at
+most 3 seconds; without access Claude is reported unavailable (*Agent Relay
+may not read Claude Code's sign-in from the Keychain…*) and every other source
+carries on, and the next pass reads again. The credential is never
+refreshed or changed; an expired one is not used (*Claude Code's sign-in has
+expired; open Claude Code to refresh it*). Remote Control sessions that mirror
+a local terminal are skipped (their local transcript is uploaded). Each
+connector fails on its own: a Claude failure never stops Devin or local
+discovery, is recorded per connector in `remote-diagnostic.json`, and the
+connector is left alone until its next listing is due. Sharing **New sessions**
+withholds a cloud session first listed after setup that started before it;
+**Selected** uploads only the chosen ones. The cutoff is the install's first
+upload job, so changing one session's sharing (which replaces the job) does not
+move it. A cloud session goes with the `~/.claude` folder: turning that folder
+off in **Claude Code folders** stops listing and uploading them, and while
+`~/.claude` is not a folder listed there (Claude Code runs from another
+`CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`) cloud sessions are neither listed nor uploaded.
+Cloud history is downloaded at a pace that leaves the machine and the
+provider account alone (one person's 256 claude.ai sessions came to about
+330 MB): only sessions the install will upload are downloaded, newest first,
+at most 20 or one minute per pass. A throttled or failing provider
+(HTTP 429, 5xx) is left alone for a wait that doubles up to an hour; a
+failing session waits up to a day, and one that cannot be read (denied, too
+large, gone) is parked until the provider lists it as changed. Downloads stop
+while the disk has less than 2 GB free or once they have grown the database
+by 2 GB; `remote-diagnostic.json` says so under `pacing`, with how many
+sessions are still waiting. The state is `history.remote-pacing` beside the
+database.
+Account settings retain identity and sign-out. General includes Appearance with Match system,
+Light, and Dark. General only shows background-service controls when approval or
+repair is needed; it never offers to stop the service. Message links and menu-bar/tray controls continue to work.
+
+Messages settings also show **Claude Code folders**, with why each is watched:
+the default, a sibling `~/.claude-<name>` login, one named in
+`AGENT_RELAY_CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIRS` (colon-separated), one added with **Add Folder…**,
+or one a running Claude Code session uses through `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` (such as
+`~/.seclaude`), which is added when seen. Each has a Shared switch. Turning a
+folder off (`settings.set` with `claude_config_dir: {path, shared: false}`)
+keeps its sessions off the relay and out of uploads (for the `~/.claude`
+folder, its claude.ai cloud sessions too); choices, and the **Claude Code
+cloud sessions** opt-in below the folders, are saved in
+`~/.agentworkforce/relay/claude-config-dirs.json`.
+
+Wherever a Claude login
+directory exists, Messages includes a *Claude Code activation* row that adds or removes Agent Relay's
+SessionStart hook, off by default (`settings.set` with `claude_session_hook`).
+The hook is written into each Claude login's `settings.json` the desktop
+knows about. When a session is not on the relay, the hook has Claude ask the
+person whether to put it on the relay and under what name, and POST /register
+only if they say yes. The person sees a short notice that nothing is
+registered unless they say yes. The hook never registers the session. A
+`claude -p`, Agent SDK or structured pipe run has nobody to answer, so the hook
+stays quiet there. A session already on the relay gets a short preamble with
+its relay name, how to reach peers and the messaging norm.
+
+Messages settings also have **Spawned agents** on both apps (see
+[native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md)). **Accept spawns from Agent Relay**
+(`settings.set` with `accept_spawns`, on by default) makes this computer a
+spawn target, `<machine prefix>-desktop`, that starts Codex, Claude, OpenCode, Grok, Muse and Devin headless
+when their CLIs are installed. Devin runs on a
+persistent private ACP host and can take another message while idle. Its full
+access switch defaults off. A launch-specific MCP server permits only Agent Relay
+sends through the authenticated local session socket; other approval requests are refused. The bundled
+Devin app CLI still needs its own authenticated CLI session (`devin auth status`).
+Both apps use the shared core's durable spawn failure receipts and redacted
+startup diagnostics. Hosted status keeps the same reason across broker versions
+and restarts; the core log also records failures without an activity subscriber.
+A status line under it says whether Agent Relay can spawn here, is
+connecting, or why not, and how many places are in use; it is a warning when
+another account owns this computer's spawn node, which then takes no spawns
+(see [native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md#whose-computer-it-is)). While it is on,
+**Allow teammates to spawn here** (`spawn_allow_teammates`, off by default)
+reads "Off: only you can start agents on this computer. On: workspace owners
+and admins can too.", with the claim under it ("Claimed by you in Agent Relay
+Cloud." or "Not claimed yet: no agent can be spawned on this computer through
+Agent Relay Cloud until it is." with why, and a primary **Retry** button when
+the claim failed), and
+**Max spawned agents** is an optional number field (1–32). Empty means
+**No limit**, the default; `spawn_max_agents: 0` clears the cap through the API.
+The old untouched default of 12 was stored as absent and now becomes unlimited;
+explicit caps, including 12, are preserved. When a cap is set, it limits how many
+run at once: an idle agent keeps its place until it is released, and a spawn
+beyond the cap is refused, never queued. Save with **Save** or Enter; leaving the field or refreshing Settings does not apply an unfinished edit. Failed saves show the error and restore the confirmed cap. A **full access** switch for each
+harness the node offers chooses whether spawned agents run without their
+sandbox; Codex and Claude approval requests go to the machine owner alone, as Relay
+messages they answer. The rows, their labels and wording come from
+the core (`SpawnStatus.harness_descriptors`), so both apps show the same ones;
+each is `spawn_harnesses.<id>.full_access`, on by default for Codex, Claude, OpenCode and Grok
+(also `spawn_full_access_codex` and `spawn_full_access_claude`; OpenCode has the
+map key only). Billing and repository access are set with `settings.set` only
+([node-lifecycle.md](node-lifecycle.md)).
+
+A spawned agent's first message names the agent that asked for it (as
+Relaycast recorded the invocation) and gives it this computer's session-socket
+commands to report back and list agents, with no token in the message. A
+spawned Claude or Codex that sends its requester nothing gets its first turn's
+final answer sent to them, only while that name still belongs to the agent
+that asked; other harnesses are told the requester receives only what they
+send. A confined OpenCode, which may not run shell commands, gets no commands
+([native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md#reporting-back-to-the-requester)).
+
+Spawned OpenCode agents can reply through this computer's session socket: the
+spawn loads Agent Relay's OpenCode plugin into their private server itself,
+whether or not the person installed it globally, without touching OpenCode's
+own configuration directory. The plugin only tags shells there; the core verifies the exact private server and
+sealed session binding before accepting a reply. On macOS the reply hint uses
+the Agent Relay helper so the kernel can read the shell's session tag.

+Regenerate with `SETTINGS_RENDER_DIR=/tmp/relay-settings-renders swift test --package-path macos --filter SettingsLayoutTests`.
+
+Messages settings also have **Claude Code message approvals** on both apps,
+collapsed by default. Expand the section to manage session and member permissions.
+Each Claude Code session can use direct delivery or **Ask first**. An optional
+member restriction lets only explicitly allowed sender addresses arrive
+directly; every other message is held locally with **Approve once**, **Always
+allow** and **Dismiss** actions. These choices are enforced before the
+session's inbox and are separate from Claude Code's login-wide
+`crossSessionInbound` setting.
+
+
+Codex app-server and desktop-window messages stay pending while the current
+turn runs. After it finishes, delivery starts a separate turn; peer messages
+and incoming cloud messages use the same idle check on macOS and Linux.
+Waiting does not consume a send attempt. Live terminal sessions continue to
+use Codex's own queue, which waits for the current turn to finish. Conductor's
+existing Stop-hook delivery remains a separate host-specific route.
+
+The shared probe recovers a rotated Cloud workspace key automatically when
+Relaycast rejects it. It refreshes the app's retained Cloud session, resolves the
+same workspace and origin, and verifies the replacement with one safe read before
+saving it. Sign-out or a changed workspace cancels recovery; failed writes are never
+replayed automatically. This behavior is shared by macOS and Linux.
+
+## Interaction
+
+The transcript replaces list-level search with its own back/refresh
+controls. Search, switches, keyboard focus and scrolling remain native. Filters and
+grouping use compact Cloud-style triggers with checkmarked popover choices. Disabled relay switches explain whether the session
+must be started or a workspace connected. Unsupported upload rows explain that
+no local transcript is available. Global errors remain in the status bar;
+per-session relay errors appear beside the affected title.
+
+Agents on the relay show their harness mark. A Capy thread (registered with
+`session_kind: capy` by Agent Relay Cloud when the thread binds) shows the Capy mark, is
+listed as running in the cloud, and is grouped under a Capy machine.
+
+Starting Capy threads is an agent operation. Neither the account menu nor the
+Agents and Team overflow menus expose **Start Capy thread…** on macOS or Linux.
+The relay core retains the Capy project, spawn and binding-status methods for
+agents; the workspace Capy key remains in Cloud.
+
+## Other platforms
+
+On macOS the main window hides the native title and title-bar background, letting
+the page backgrounds extend behind the standard traffic-light controls. Content
+keeps its native safe area so controls remain clear. Linux and Windows retain
+the native title bar and controls; the macOS window style is platform-specific.
+
+Linux and Windows provide the same local session table and Settings navigation
+in GTK 4 (`probe/src/linux_app/ui`, one app built for both). Every platform
+uses a 980 × 650 minimum window. Appearance is persisted in native preferences
+on macOS, `~/.config/agent-relay/desktop.json` on Linux and
+`%APPDATA%\agent-relay\desktop.json` on Windows.
+
+A per-user Linux install (`~/.local/lib/agent-relay/<version>`) lists itself
+in the desktop's app launcher through
+`~/.local/share/applications/agent-relay.desktop`, which runs that install's
+`agent-relay-desktop` by its full path; the npm Agent Relay CLI shares the
+bare `agent-relay` name. Updates and every app start keep it on the running
+version, `agent-relay-desktop --install-launcher` writes it for a scripted
+install, and an install from the `.deb` removes it so the package's own entry
+is listed. An entry the app did not write is kept. macOS needs none: the app
+is a bundle in `/Applications`.
+
+A per-user Windows install
+(`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>`)
+lists itself in the Start menu through
+`%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Agent Relay.lnk` and handles
+`agentrelay://` links through `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\agentrelay`,
+both kept on the running version the same way;
+`agent-relay-desktop.exe --install-launcher` writes the shortcut for a scripted
+install. The release's `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe` installs into
+that same folder, writes the same shortcut and runs `--install-launcher`,
+and its uninstaller removes every version, the shortcut, the handler and the
+logon task. Projects remains hidden on macOS.
+
+## Validation
+
+Run `swift test --package-path macos` and
+`xvfb-run -a cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk`,
+and on Windows the same `cargo test` in an MSYS2 CLANG64 or CLANGARM64 shell
+(see [windows/README.md](../windows/README.md)). The GTK tests need GTK 4 and a
+display (Xvfb on Linux; Windows has its desktop session). The bridge tests use local
+Unix sockets and never require a real account. Inspect both wide and
+minimum-size native windows when modifying these regions.
+
+Global background errors appear as an amber **Needs attention** warning at the
+bottom left of the status bar. Hover to read the full message; on macOS, click
+to open selectable details. They do not appear as banners in settings.
+
+### Reading a local session
+
+Click any session row to open its local conversation, whether or not it is uploaded.
+Opening the reader uses `sessions.transcript` without enabling uploads or relay registration.
+User messages, assistant Markdown, selectable code blocks, and collapsible thinking,
+tool activity, and session context share a centered conversation column. Messages
+load automatically through the full local transcript. Copy, refresh, and retry
+controls remain available.
+
+The editable session title replaces search in the shared header; there is no separate
+transcript toolbar. Back to sessions sits between the wordmark and session title
+in the shared header. Matching full-width Open and Refresh buttons live in the
+compact right sidebar (a spawned session Agent Relay still runs may have no
+Open; see below). The Messaging section groups Receive messages
+with the agent name field and Rename button. Naming appears only when messaging
+is enabled and a name is available, without scrolling at the minimum window size.
+Copy name copies the session's name, even while a new name is being edited.
+Helper text lives in tooltips; status and actionable errors remain visible; the
+name field's tooltip explains renaming. Upload session includes its
+local/uploading/uploaded status. Renaming changes the name other agents see on
+Relaycast, leaving the session title unchanged. A session has one name: a rename
+replaces it, so only the new name is shown and replies come from it, while the
+earlier name only forwards messages sent to it, so nothing sent while renaming
+is lost: the name the session was registered with until it leaves the relay, a
+name a later rename replaced for 24 hours.
+Turning Upload session off uses the
+existing cloud-deletion confirmation. Back to sessions keeps the table’s search,
+grouping, collapsed sections, and scroll position.
+
+Group headers are buttons with chevrons and session counts. Click to collapse or
+expand; collapsed state is independent for each grouping and survives list refreshes
+and searches. Rows, headers, and controls have hover and keyboard focus feedback.
+Actionable rows, buttons, menu triggers, and switches show a pointing-hand cursor.
+Disabled controls use the arrow cursor and suppress action hover feedback; cursor
+state follows sensitivity changes and is cleared when a hovered control disappears.
+
+### Cloud styling
+
+The desktop uses the effective Cloud workspace palette from
+`cloud/packages/web/app/dashboard/_components/workspace-chrome.module.css`:
+light canvas `#f9fafb`, dark canvas `#14191f`, primary `#2d6a9c` / `#74b8e2`,
+and row hover `#e7eff7` / `#223e58`. These override the older airframe and
+marketing palettes. macOS centralizes the tokens in `CloudTheme.swift`; GTK
+uses the matching `LIGHT` / `DARK` palettes in `ui/theme.rs`. The macOS menu-bar panel
+also uses these tokens for its canvas, text, hover, and status colors. Its session
+rows and header/footer controls highlight immediately, without a fade, and pointer
+motion within a control does not rewrite its hover state. The Linux
+StatusNotifierItem menu is rendered by the desktop shell and follows the shell’s
+theme; its protocol does not provide app-controlled menu colors.
+
+Both appearances share Cloud’s 52px session rows, 28px compact filters,
+6px group corners, subtle borders, bordered count badges, and muted zebra
+stripes. Settings and local conversations use the same surfaces; code blocks
+use Cloud’s dark code palette. Light, Dark, and Match system remain available.
+
+Relay-owned model features use authenticated Cloud endpoints. The opt-in local
+`credential-proxy serve` command and daemon proxy have been removed; independently
+launched agent CLIs keep their existing authentication and environment.
+
+The logged-out screen offers **Sign in with Google**, which always opens
+Google's account chooser instead of reusing a saved app or CLI session.
+macOS, Linux and Windows use this explicit browser flow and PKCE handoff
+without device-code confirmation. Local setup
+clients can opt into it with `/setup/sign-in` and `{"flow":"browser"}`; older
+and remote/headless setup clients retain device approval by default.
+
+Conductor and Paseo sessions keep their provider badge and host label on macOS.
+Live Codex sessions and top-level Claude Code chats hosted by Paseo use the
+Paseo badge. Nested structured Claude runs remain automation and are not
+auto-activated; host identity comes from the running process tree.
+
+Local transcripts hide Codex external-context XML and display embedded image
+copies from RelayHistory as images. The reader writes each copy into its private
+image cache and sends only that path over the core bridge. Reading never changes
+upload selection. PNG, JPEG, GIF and WebP copies up to 1 MiB are supported; other
+image blocks show an explicit unavailable notice. Capture requires the pending
+RelayHistory embedded-image release; the published 0.40.0 capture engine omits
+these bytes. Cloud additionally needs the History image-preservation change and
+transcript renderer deployed before shared copies appear there.
+
+Session titles include a compact harness · model · reasoning subtitle on both
+platforms, with the full value in a tooltip. A session on the relay leads that
+line with its agent name (`@name`, its newest name once renamed, in the foreground
+color); hovering it explains which names reach the session. Models come from the latest observed
+Codex turn context or Claude assistant record in a bounded transcript tail,
+falling back to RelayHistory's catalog model names. Reasoning shows the explicit
+Codex turn setting when available. Missing metadata is labelled unknown, including
+sessions without local transcripts. These reads share the existing one-second
+metadata budget and never hydrate or upload a transcript.
+
+Upload status sits beside the switch in the single Upload column. Local-only icons are muted; uploaded
+checkmarks use subdued neutral color. Hover labels read “Local only”, “Uploading…”,
+or “Uploaded” (other states retain their specific labels). Uploading animates an
+upward accent fill, with a steady arrow for reduced motion. The sweep represents
+activity, not a percentage: the core does not report per-session byte/record
+completion. Accessibility keeps the status available without hovering.
+
+Every visible session column header is clickable. The Upload header sorts by whether uploading is enabled.
+Click the active header again to reverse direction; an arrow marks the current
+sort. Updated defaults to newest first; text/status columns start A–Z and toggle
+columns start with enabled sessions. Missing values stay last. Sorting applies
+to loaded sessions and within groups, and persists while filtering, viewing a
+transcript, refreshing, or loading additional history.
+
+### Reopening a local session
+
+Desktop destinations use a compact provider logo and open arrow in the transcript
+header; the tooltip and accessibility label name the action (for example,
+**Open in Claude**). Terminal and setup actions keep their text labels.
+
+**View on web**, below the open action, opens an uploaded session's Cloud page
+(`/cloud/dashboard/sessions/<session-id>`) in the browser. It is hidden until
+the session finishes uploading.
+
+A Claude Code session something else holds is not offered a handoff it
+cannot have. Claude Desktop resumes a session in a process of its own, so
+Claude Code refuses `claude --desktop --resume` while anything holds the
+session ("Session … is open in another terminal. Run /desktop there
+instead."); only the holder hands it over. The core reports what holds each
+session it discovers (`holder`), read from the field that session's own
+registry entry records — the one Claude Code's handoff reads — and the open
+action follows it:
+
+- A session a person is typing in keeps **Open in Terminal**, which resumes
+  beside them, with the note "This session is open in a terminal. Run
+  /desktop there to continue it in Claude."
+- A session a headless process holds (`claude -p`, a structured pipe, an SDK
+  run) has no open action: Claude Code refuses a Terminal resume for one too.
+  Its note is "A headless Claude Code process is running this session. Run
+  claude agents to find it, or stop it, to continue it here."
+
+A chat hosted in another app (Conductor, Paseo, Claude Desktop) runs a
+structured pipe and is still a session a person types in; its entry records
+that, so it keeps its open action. The holder is read only from the session
+as discovery lists it now, so one that has ended holds nothing.
+
+**Open in Claude** returns once nothing holds the session. A holder that
+takes the session between that check and the launch is reported with the same
+note, in place of the CLI's own line naming the session id. Linux shows only
+the headless note: its answer for a session a person is typing in would be
+`/desktop`, which Claude Code offers on macOS and x64 Windows only.
+
+A session Agent Relay spawned is never resumed beside the process that runs it
+([native-spawn.md](native-spawn.md#joining-and-taking-over-a-spawned-agent)).
+Its transcript is followed live with a note ("Live: new output appears as the
+agent writes it.") and a message box (**Message @name**, **Send**) under it; an
+agent's details on the agents page link to it with **Transcript: Join**. A
+spawned Claude has **Take over in Claude** or **Take over in Terminal** in place
+of the open action: it asks **Take over @name?** (mid-turn, offering **Take Over
+After This Turn**, then **Interrupt Now** while it waits), stops the headless
+agent and resumes the session where the opening preference says. A spawned
+Codex thread has **Open in Codex** only, with a note that Agent Relay's Codex
+app server runs it. Any other spawned agent (Grok, OpenCode, Muse, Devin) has no
+open action while Agent Relay runs it; it is joined only, with the note "Agent
+Relay runs this session. Follow it and message it here; it is not resumed in
+Terminal while Agent Relay runs it." Linux takes over in Terminal: Claude
+Desktop handoff is macOS-only.
+
+Take-over confirmations remain bound to the original agent when switching
+transcripts. Take-over failures stay with their session until another attempt,
+so returning to a transcript restores its error without showing it on others.
+
+**Settings → Opening sessions** stores a per-computer **Automatic** or
+**Terminal** preference for Claude Code and Codex. Automatic opens the desktop
+app when installed and otherwise resumes in Terminal. macOS checks Launch
+Services (including apps outside `/Applications`) when the viewer opens, when
+the app becomes active, and again at click time. Settings shows installation
+status, **Check installed apps**, and Claude download/setup links. The transcript
+header's **Opening settings** button links directly to this page.
+
+Codex opens `codex://threads/<session-id>` when a handler is available. On macOS,
+Claude Code opens through `claude --desktop --resume <session-id>` in the
+original directory, with a hidden pseudo-terminal: Claude refuses this handoff
+when standard output is redirected to a pipe. The launcher captures failures,
+limits execution time, and keeps **Open in Terminal** available. Claude requires
+CLI 2.1.285+ and subscription login; a session still open elsewhere must first
+be closed there. A launch failure offers Terminal and Opening settings.
+
+Terminal resume runs `claude --resume <session-id>`, `codex resume <session-id>`,
+or `grok --resume <session-id>` in the session's original directory. The adjacent
+**Copy resume command** includes that directory. Missing directories never fall
+back to the app's own working directory. Unsupported sources and Claude cloud
+sessions do not offer a local resume action. Opening sends no prompt and changes
+no upload selection. Historical local Claude Code records do not reliably identify
+terminal versus desktop origin, so routing uses the preference and installed apps,
+not the `claude-terminal` delivery-kind name or an inferred origin.
+
+macOS terminal resume opens a private, self-removing command file in Terminal.
+Linux uses `xdg-terminal-exec`, the system terminal alternative, or a supported
+installed terminal. Linux keeps Claude and Grok on Terminal because Anthropic
+currently documents the Claude desktop handoff only for macOS and x64 Windows.
+Linux supports the same saved preferences, with Codex handler detection and
+terminal fallback. Launcher errors remain visible; CLI errors appear in Terminal.
+
+### Session search panel
+
+Open **Search or filter sessions…** or press **⌘F** on macOS / **Ctrl+F** on
+Linux and Windows, or press **/** while outside a text field. The search panel groups suggestions under Harnesses, Status, Projects,
+and Upload. Choosing a suggestion completes the current query token and keeps
+earlier words and filters; typed qualifiers and menu choices use the same query.
+Press Return to view results and Escape to close. Use ↑/↓ to navigate suggestions; Tab on macOS or Return on a focused Linux
+option chooses a suggestion. Search covers loaded sessions; scrolling loads older history.
+
+Search suggestions support multiple selections. Click or press Right Arrow to
+toggle an option; selecting it again removes that value. For example,
+`harness:codex harness:claude is:active` shows active sessions from either harness.
+Repeated harness, project, status and upload qualifiers match any selected value;
+different filter types intersect, and exclusions always apply. Existing search
+words stay in the query when selecting a filter.
+
+
+### Workspace sign-in and upload ownership
+
+The avatar menu shows **Switch workspace…** only when Cloud confirms multiple
+workspace memberships. Sign-in opens a workspace selector in the
+browser only when the account has multiple workspaces; a single workspace uses
+the default directly. Desktop credentials remain bound to that choice even when
+the browser switches workspaces.
+Uploads and messages use that one workspace and its key; Settings › Messages
+shows it as **Workspace from your Agent Relay account**.
+
+Signing out stops the collector and removes its credentials, while retaining the
+workspace's sharing choices, pending batches, and acknowledged delivery progress.
+Signing back into that same account and workspace restores its existing job;
+acknowledged history is not replayed. A new workspace starts with selected-only
+sharing. Session discovery lists recent history first without uploading it. When
+automatic uploads are enabled, initial full indexing prioritizes the last 24
+hours, then the rest of the week, then older sessions by latest activity.
+Registrations retained from another relay workspace cannot automatically
+select sessions for the new upload destination. Explicitly sharing a session in
+another workspace remains a separate choice.
+
+Selected search filters toggle off individually without removing other query
+terms. The search bar's × tooltip reads "clear search"; the search panel's ×
+closes the panel while preserving the query. Escape also closes the panel.
+
+The session search bar fills the toolbar beside the Table display icon and uses 14px horizontal
+and 9px vertical padding. Filter qualifiers appear as chips with a remove ×,
+including exclusions and date constraints. Removing a chip keeps other filters
+and text, without opening the search panel. Chips scroll horizontally as needed.
+
+Local transcript messages show the signed-in person’s avatar beside “You”.
+Consecutive tool calls and results collapse under “N tool calls”; expanding
+the group reveals individually expandable calls and results. Counts include
+only calls, and groups continue across loaded pages until a non-tool entry.
+
+Workspace controls live in the avatar menu. Only an account with more than one
+confirmed workspace shows **Switch workspace…** and a 26-point rounded workspace
+avatar behind the 28-point user avatar, matching Cloud's stacked arrangement.
+Unknown and single-workspace accounts show only the user avatar. Cloud's `whoami`
+response supplies the distinct membership count and current organization avatar;
+the core refreshes that metadata every five minutes without renewing credentials.
+Older Cloud responses safely omit switching until the count is known.
+**Switch workspace…** retains the confirmed sign-out/sign-in flow; it does not
+move uploaded history or silently change accounts. Older sign-ins resolve the display name
+from Cloud independently of Relaycast; until available, the label is “Workspace”
+rather than an internal ID. A name is accepted only for the attached account and workspace.
+
+Click anywhere in the session search bar, including padding, blank space, and
+chip labels, to open search. Only the × controls remove filters or clear the
+query. Chip labels do not remove filters, and scrolling chips does not open search.
+
+Search editing is optimistic: the query, chips and checkmarks update immediately.
+Session results are coalesced after an 80ms pause; obsolete requests are canceled
+and only the latest query is applied. macOS filtering, sorting and grouping run off the UI
+thread against a snapshot; cached groups keep query edits cheap. GTK defers table rendering to a later main-loop turn.
+The previous result list remains visible while the next result set is prepared.
+
+In search suggestions, ↑/↓ move the highlight. Right Arrow selects the highlighted
+filter and keeps it highlighted; Left Arrow removes that filter and keeps the
+highlight. Repeated Right or Left is idempotent. Text editing still uses arrow
+keys normally until suggestion navigation starts. Clicking still toggles a filter.
+
+Opposite search choices replace each other: Active versus Inactive, Not uploading
+versus In progress, and Indexing versus other upload states. Compatible
+choices (such as Codex + Claude or Uploaded + In progress) remain multi-select.
+Choosing a positive value also clears its exact negative qualifier. Manually
+combining opposite positive qualifiers shows a validation error.
+
+On the relay is an independent condition and intersects Active/Inactive, rather
+than broadening the activity filter.
+
+After navigating suggestions with ↑/↓, Return completes and selects the highlighted
+option, then submits and closes search. Its matching trailing fragment is replaced
+by the full qualifier (for example, `clo` → `project:cloud`); earlier words and
+filters remain. Return without suggestion navigation submits the typed text.
+
+Right Arrow completes the highlighted suggestion in place of its matching typed
+fragment, preserving the highlight and keeping search open for more filters.
+
+Keyboard filter selection tracks the highlighted filter across rapid additions
+and removals, even when completing text expands the suggestion list.
+
+Selected search filters show a white checkmark inside a filled blue circle.
+
+Turning Upload off asks **Delete cloud copy?** before changing the switch. Confirming
+removes that machine's uploaded session and its delegated subagents, keeps local
+history, and stops future uploads. Cancel leaves Upload on. A server consent fence
+blocks late batches until Upload is explicitly enabled again; that action starts a
+fresh backfill. Confirmations are scoped to the current account/workspace. Deletion
+errors appear on the affected row, and other rows remain interactive.
+
+The native deletion contract is `uploader.sessions.delete` (the older exclude method
+still only stops delivery). This requires History's session-selection endpoint and
+migration 0037; deploy the History change before releasing these desktop controls.
+No client-side hiding substitutes for successful cloud deletion.
+
+
+### Development session reset
+
+Session reset is a probe CLI operation, not a desktop Settings control.
+Use `agent-relay-probe sessions reset --local` with the install's site, account,
+workspace, and `--confirmation 'RESET LOCAL SESSIONS'` to clear local session
+state and rediscover existing conversations while retaining sign-in and cloud
+history. See the root README's development reset instructions.
+
+The Linux sign-in and app mark use the canonical `assets/agent-relay-mark.svg`
+with the same light-blue front and dark-blue back as macOS.
+
+Search expands over the search bar, centered on its anchor, and dismisses
+when clicking outside. Escape and the close button also dismiss it.
+
+### Session column preferences
+
+Open the **Table display** columns icon to configure the local session table.
+The panel starts with a full-width native **Group by** dropdown with arrow-key
+navigation, Enter to select, and Escape to dismiss. Its list matches the field
+width and has no popover arrow or repeated heading. This is followed by column
+visibility and column order. Drag a
+handle to move the full row, or use the up/down buttons. Dragging shows the
+destination with a gap on macOS and an insertion line on GTK. Rows have a
+consistent 40px height and 6px spacing. Canceling a drag preserves the order. Changes apply immediately
+and persist on this machine. **Done** uses the compact brand-blue primary button;
+**Reset to default** restores Session, Status, Project,
+Updated, Messages, and Upload. Harness, Directory, Session ID, Model, Reasoning, and Created
+are optional. At least one column stays visible. Headers and rows
+scroll horizontally together when the chosen columns need more space. Drag a header’s
+trailing divider to resize its column; body cells have no resize handles. All
+headers support sorting and share a 36-point row height so dividers align. Widths
+preview live and save on release, survive hiding and reordering, and reset with
+**Reset to default**. Double-click a divider to reset just that column. Escape
+cancels a drag; keyboard/accessibility adjustments are available on the divider.
+Sessions can be hidden from their row menu or the selection toolbar. Hiding takes
+an active session off the relay, then excludes it from future uploads while
+preserving its existing cloud copy. Hidden sessions are omitted by default;
+**Show hidden** in table settings reveals them with muted rows and disabled
+relay/upload controls, including in the transcript sidebar. Visibility and the
+checkbox persist on this machine. Unhide restores visibility without restarting
+sharing. A failed sharing shutdown returns the session to the table with an error.
+
+The Session column fills spare table width, including after reordering (the last visible
+column fills it when Session is hidden). The default window is 1280 × 800, with
+420-point Session, 100-point Status, 160-point Project, 120-point Updated,
+126-point Messages, and 100-point Upload columns. Reset restores these widths
+and the default window size (except in full screen). Messages and Upload are centered;
+wider layouts scroll horizontally. Harness and Model sort alphabetically, and
+Reasoning sorts by effort from none through ultra; missing metadata stays last.
+Hovering a sortable header shows the direction its next click will use. Moving
+away restores the current sort arrow (or hides it for an unsorted column). Hiding
+Upload or Messages does not change either setting on a session.
+
+Created and Updated show relative times (including “Just now”) and reveal the exact
+UTC date and time, including seconds, on hover. Every column supports sorting;
+Created defaults to newest first, Status uses the displayed activity state, and
+Directory and Session ID sort alphabetically. Created uses the first recorded
+session activity; missing metadata reads “—”. Harness includes its logo, and Upload stacks its status
+icon above its label. Messages uses labeled controls: Off, Connecting…,
+Receiving, Offline, and Turning off…, each with a state icon.
+
+Hovering anywhere on a session row highlights the entire row. Clicking its text,
+harness logo, or gaps opens the session; the checkbox and surrounding leading
+padding select it instead. Message controls keep their own click behavior.
+
+Session rows have a left selection checkbox and harness logo, then the title and known model · harness · reasoning details. Status is separate from the read-only Upload column. Selected rows are highlighted. Selecting sessions reveals the top bulk action bar with Messaging and Upload switches, followed by Hide with an eye-slash icon. Mixed on/off selections display as off; switching on enables the selected sessions, and switching off disables them. Turning uploads off retains the cloud-copy deletion confirmation.
+
+Search expands from and collapses into its toolbar anchor with a 200 ms eased
+transition. Reduced-motion preferences skip the animated close.
+
+The compact header brand has no hover highlight or pointing-hand cursor. The search border is muted while closed. Account avatars are centered with padding, including single-workspace accounts. Available updates appear as an icon-only download button beside the upload status, without an update dot on the avatar.
+
+The local session count appears beside the bottom-left status. When problems are present, click Needs attention to open Diagnostics with full, selectable and copyable error details. Distinct session and connection problems are collected together.
+
+
+A discovered session awaiting an upload-catalog entry is labeled **Indexing**
+in the list, sidebar, and upload filter. Missing catalog data alone does not
+prove uploads are unavailable. Upload selection waits for the catalog entry;
+known upload errors keep their specific explanation. Opening a session
+excluded by Reset all sessions explains the reset and directs the person to
+the source app, without recreating Relay’s cleared reader cache.
+
+Each session group header has a checkbox that selects or deselects only the matching rows in that group, including when the group is collapsed. Other groups keep their selections. A partially selected group displays unchecked; clicking it selects the whole group.
+
+### Request diagnostics
+
+Settings → Diagnostics fills the available content width and shows recent Relaycast and Cloud requests from the background service, newest first, with request and response details, timestamps, duration, and a Failures only filter. Click anywhere on a request header to expand or collapse its details. The bottom-left dot and status text show overall app status: green when uploads are up to date with no problems, orange when a request fails or another problem needs attention. Clicking a request failure opens and highlights the exact entry in Diagnostics; it stays available when older requests roll out of the log. Viewed request failures do not notify again. Other current problems appear in Diagnostics with selectable, copyable details. Copy details briefly changes to Copied when the problem text is copied.
+
+If the background service exits unexpectedly, the app shows **Reconnecting** while its service manager starts the replacement. Read-only requests interrupted by the exit wait up to five seconds and run again against the replacement. Changes are never sent again automatically, because the old service may have completed them before the connection closed; the app asks the person to check the result before trying again. A change the app could not send at all, because no connection to the service opened, is different: its message says the app is reconnecting or starting, and it clears once the service answers; Retry uploads and Compact now, which are safe to repeat, are then sent once on their own. A service that stays unavailable shows a recovery action. Once the new snapshot arrives, a transient read error no longer keeps the status orange.
+
+An upgrade notice appears at the bottom right, at most once every 15 minutes per workspace, with **Review upgrade** (opens Cloud Billing) and dismiss. It reads **Agent Relay plan limit reached** when Relaycast reports the workspace's plan quota is used up. It reads **Workspace at capacity**, naming the plan, when a Free or Pro workspace had three or more writes answered with `workspace_busy` in the last five minutes. The plan comes from Relaycast's workspace (read during verification); busy answers on lanes no plan raises (connection tokens, heartbeats, node calls, delivery acknowledgements) do not count, and Relaycast's own `upgrade_available`, which the request log records from each busy answer, decides when present. A single busy write is ordinary contention and the app simply retries. Requests made for a Relay Connect room (the request log tags them with `connect`) are that room's workspace, not the team's, and never raise either notice.
+
+The log lives only in memory for the current service run (up to 250 entries; large responses and bridge snapshots are bounded). Credentials and message content are redacted. Relaycast SDK rows contain decoded results or final error details, including HTTP status, request ID, and retry count where available. Successful HTTP statuses and individual SDK retry responses are not exposed by the SDK. Cloud rows include the actual HTTP status. Calls made with a Relay Connect room's credential are labeled Relay Connect instead of Agent Relay, because they use that room's workspace and its limits, not the team's. The log covers the core's Relaycast calls and Cloud HTTP transport, not WebSocket frames or separate upload transports.
+
+Session lists use the daemon's shared snapshot: reopening the app reads cached
+rows immediately while live-agent discovery and upload enrichment run in separate
+background tasks. A cold daemon seeds rows from the collector's persisted catalog;
+global upload status and history requests run independently in both desktop apps.
+
+User-facing messages, help text, and diagnostic service labels use **Agent Relay**.
+Relaycast remains an internal provider identifier.
+
+The menu-bar panel and the Linux and Windows tray are an at-a-glance summary of this computer's
+sessions, laid out as a plain menu. **Messages** counts sessions **Receiving
+messages** (`is:active is:on-relay`) and **Local only** (`is:active
+is:off-relay`); **Uploads** counts **Uploaded** (`upload:uploaded`) and **Not
+uploaded** (`-upload:uploaded`). Each count is that search run over the rows
+the session list shows, hidden sessions excluded unless shown, and choosing it
+opens the session list with that search, so the list shows exactly the sessions
+counted. **All sessions** opens the session list with no search; Settings… and
+Quit Agent Relay follow.
+
+The menu shows no banners. On the Mac each section title carries a status dot:
+green when it is working, grey while paused or connecting, and the warning
+orange when something stops it. Its wording shows on hover, and an orange dot
+opens Settings → Diagnostics (the failed request, when there is one), like the
+window's **Needs attention**. While something needs attention, the menu-bar
+icon is drawn in that orange. Receiving messages and Uploaded are badges in the
+brand blue while nonzero and nothing needs attention, the rest muted. The Linux
+tray has no hover: its icon turns the same orange, **⚠ Needs attention** under
+Messages opens Diagnostics, and the upload status is written beside Uploads.
+
+After browser authentication, accounts with multiple workspaces choose a workspace in the welcome screen. No relay connection or upload setup starts until a workspace is selected. A single workspace continues automatically; Cancel returns to sign-in.
+
+### Saved session views
+
+A single bookmark button sits beside the search box and opens
+**Saved views**. The bookmark, table settings, and account controls use compact
+6-point gaps while retaining their existing hit areas. Its bookmark is filled whenever the current search and table
+configuration matches a saved view; changing those settings returns it to an
+outline. Choose **Save current view** in the dropdown, give it a unique name,
+and optionally choose **Make default**. Select a saved name to restore it, use
+the star to change the default, or the × to delete the view. Deleting a view leaves
+the current table unchanged;
+deleting its default removes the startup override. Views are local to this machine.
+
+A view preserves the search text, grouping, sort direction and column, column
+order/visibility/widths, and **Show hidden**. Date filters preserve their explicit
+dates; saving a date range does not turn it into a rolling window. The default
+loads at app startup. All controls have accessible names and keyboard focus;
+Enter saves from the name field and Escape dismisses the popover. Delete remains
+available without hover, with stronger emphasis on hover or keyboard focus.
+
+Primary blue actions use the canonical Agent Relay button, including Save current
+view, Save, Done, sign-in, settings, and upgrade. Both themes use brand blue
+`#2d6a9c`, white text, a `#234969` border, and 10/10/10/3 corners (the tight corner
+is bottom-left). Hover darkens to `#26557e` to keep white text accessible.
+There is no shadow or glow. Keyboard focus and disabled states remain visible.
+Use `AgentRelayPrimaryButtonStyle` on macOS and the `primary` class on GTK;
+workspace accent colors are separate and must not define button fills.
+
+### Usage diagnostics
+
+macOS, Linux and Windows share explicit PostHog usage events through the relay core.
+Agent registration/removal, message sending and initial transcript reads record
+attempts and outcomes in shared handlers. The UI records page/settings-pane
+navigation, opening the message composer, browser opening, and debounced
+session/agent/team searches. Search queries, names, recipients, session IDs and
+message contents are never sent. Session selection counts and sharing modes
+accompany their operations; deletion has its own operation. Observed upload
+completion counts exclude startup history and repeated polls. Update events
+report installation handoff; Linux `.deb` downloads require manual installation.
+Background transcript following is excluded from open counts, even without a

+
+## iPhone and iPad
+
+The mobile client has **Agents** and **Messages** tabs; Drive has no separate
+tab. The phone header pins the Agent Relay logo to the leading edge, and iPad
+keeps its logo in the left rail. Agent conversations follow the current relay
+roster and disappear when their peer leaves or its presence expires. People's
+conversations remain available offline. Message history stays on Relaycast.
+Presence reconciles every 30 seconds, on foregrounding, and on tab changes.
+Machine menus group equivalent hostname spellings and match every variant
+when filtering. These changes are mobile-only; the desktop layout above is
+unchanged.
+
+### Relay agent names
+
+
+New relay registrations use `harness-repo-task`, with up to two meaningful
+words from the session title (for example `claude-cloud-plan-support`). Names
+are chosen locally; filler words are skipped. A missing task title uses
+`session`. Duplicate automatic names get `-2`, `-3`, and so on. Existing
+registrations retain their names as titles change; explicitly chosen names
+are respected. This behavior is shared by macOS, Linux and headless mode.
+
+### Codex CLI discovery
+
+Codex terminal message delivery resolves npm CLI launchers to their bundled native
+executables, so the desktop or background service does not require Node on its
+PATH. Nested and hoisted platform packages and legacy vendor layouts are supported.
+On macOS, discovery also recognizes the CLI inside the newer
+`Resources/codex-cli/CodexCLI.app` bundle layout.
+
+Native session titles are published as `session_title` roster metadata, refreshed after
+renames and when existing registrations reconnect. A published objective keeps priority.
+OpenClaw and Hermes gateway registrations identify an agent rather than one conversation;
+their `session_scope: "agent"` prevents a misleading History summary link. Their relay
+addresses and message delivery are unchanged.
+
+For this first experimental candidate, first enable **Accept spawns from Agent
+Relay** in Settings and wait for the computer to be claimed by your signed-in
+account. Mobile Claude continuation uses that existing ownership proof. Enabling
+continuation before the claim is ready is refused before any plugin or setting
+change; a peer message cannot establish the claim.
+
+After your first mobile message, replies stay synced to your phone, including
+replies to later messages you type in that same desktop conversation. They stay
+bound to the verified owner and current control generation. Before mobile
+engagement, desktop replies are not forwarded. Permission prompts for turns you
+start on the desktop continue to use Claude's native desktop prompt.

+# Agent Relay plugin for Capy (moved)
+
+The Capy plugin now lives in the public skills repository so any Capy
+organization can install it:
+
+- Plugin: [`AgentWorkforce/skills`, path `plugins/capy/agent-relay`](https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/skills/tree/main/plugins/capy/agent-relay)
+- Guided setup from any agent: [`setting-up-capy-on-agent-relay`](https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/skills/tree/main/skills/setting-up-capy-on-agent-relay)
+
+In Capy, add the plugin from GitHub with that repository and path (or tell any
+Capy thread "Install the Agent Relay plugin from GitHub AgentWorkforce/skills,
+path plugins/capy/agent-relay"), sign in to Agent Relay, then say "Set me up on
+Agent Relay" in a thread. If your organization installed it from this
+repository's `integrations/capy`, remove that copy on Capy's MCP & plugins page
+and add the public one.

+# Replicas and Agent Relay
+
+Cloud spawning and messaging are implemented by the hosted Agent Relay service.
+The shared desktop contract
+exposes `replicas.environments.list`, `replicas.spawn`, `replicas.spawn.get`,
+and `replicas.release` on macOS and Linux.
+
+The scripts below preserve the original existing-chat connection during
+rollout. They are an optional local fallback, not required for Cloud bindings.
+Do not run both bridges for the same replica.
+
+## Existing-chat operator bridge
+
+This operator bridge gives an existing chat its own Relaycast agent. DMs to
+that agent become turns in that exact chat through the supported Replicas API.
+The agent replies or initiates DMs with a small helper installed in its sandbox.
+It needs only its own agent token; the workspace key and Replicas API key stay
+on the bridge host. No desktop UI or Cloud deployment is needed.
+
+This is an initial connection for existing agents, not the Capy-style product
+integration. It does not create replicas, install environment-wide defaults,
+upload conversations to Sessions, forward attachments, or mirror chat output
+automatically. A relay reply must use the helper. The Mac or Linux bridge host
+must remain running and online. Replicas may sleep; sending a message wakes it.
+Deleting/rebuilding its sandbox may require reinstalling the helper.
+
+## Binding and credentials
+
+1. Use `GET /v1/whoami`, `GET /v1/replica` (paginate all results), and
+   `GET /v1/replica/{id}` to verify the organization and select an existing chat.
+   Keep the API key in 1Password or another secret store, never in a prompt.
+2. Verify the target Relaycast workspace with `GET /v1/workspace`. Register a
+   new agent with `POST /v1/agents` and `auto_join_general: false`. Use a unique
+   `replicas-<replica-id-prefix>` name. Never take over an existing identity.
+   Metadata should include `source: cloud-replicas`, the coding harness as
+   `session_kind`, `host: Replicas`, `session_id` (chat ID), and `replica_id`.
+3. Save a private, mode-0600 bridge config outside the repository:
+
+   ```json
+   {
+     "relay_url": "https://cast.agentrelay.com",
+     "agent_name": "replicas-<id-prefix>",
+     "agent_token": "<new agent token>",
+     "replicas_key": "<Replicas API key>",
+     "replica_id": "<existing replica UUID>",
+     "chat_id": "<existing chat UUID>"
+   }
+   ```
+
+4. Through the Replicas `/exec` API, install `message.py` at
+   `~/.local/share/agent-relay-replicas/message.py` and a mode-0600
+   `~/.config/agent-relay-replicas/credentials.json` containing only
+   `relay_url` and `agent_token`. Use a private API request body for credentials,
+   never a chat message. Preserve existing sandbox and environment settings.
+5. Run `python3 bridge.py --config /absolute/private/config.json` on macOS or
+   Linux. A launchd user agent or a separate systemd user service can supervise
+   it. Do not alter or stop the desktop's `agent-relay.service`.
+
+The bridge polls every ten seconds and refreshes its identity's presence.
+Each injected turn identifies its sender, original message, delivery, and reply
+command, and says peer requests do not grant new user authorization.
+
+## Replying from the replica
+
+```sh
+python3 ~/.local/share/agent-relay-replicas/message.py send \
+  --to '<exact relay agent name>' --text 'Your reply'
+```
+
+The helper has no workspace key and cannot register or impersonate peers.
+It does not consume the inbox; the bridge is the sole delivery consumer.
+Relay replies go to the sender as DMs, including replies to thread messages.
+
+## Recovery and verification
+
+The adjacent `.state.json` journals a send before calling Replicas and records
+the accepted message ID before acknowledging Relaycast. An acknowledgement
+failure can retry without reposting the turn. A second bridge process cannot
+acquire the config lock.
+
+Replicas does not document a message idempotency key. An interrupted or rejected
+send remains `sending` and logs `uncertain send`. Inspect the chat for the
+delivery marker before editing that entry: if accepted, set its status to
+`sent`; if definitely absent, remove just that entry to retry. Never clear the
+whole journal. Logs contain IDs and safe errors, not messages or credentials.
+
+Verify the roster identity, send one relay DM asking for a unique marker back
+through the helper, then confirm both the chat turn and the returned Relaycast
+DM. API acceptance alone does not prove the model replied.
+
+Run `python3 -m unittest discover -s integrations/replicas -p 'test_*.py'`
+from the repository root. Neither native app changes, so native UI tests are
+not required for this bridge. Both apps show the existing cloud roster entry.
+
+To disconnect, unload only the bridge's supervisor, revoke its agent token or
+delete its uniquely named agent, and remove its private local and sandbox
+credentials. Keep unrelated desktop services and agents running.

+# Agent Relay Mobile
+
+The native SwiftUI app runs on iPhone and iPad. It signs in through Agent Relay Cloud and connects directly to Relaycast over HTTPS and WebSocket. Its three tabs show the Relay roster, direct messages and workspace channels. The compact header keeps the Agent Relay logo on the left; iPad keeps it in the left rail. It can start an agent on any online machine that advertises the chosen agent type, then wait for its readiness receipt. It also shows the saved Cloud session overview and can request a new one. Agent badges use the CLI's artwork when its type is known, and the interface follows the device's light or dark appearance. It does not need a Mac bridge, local network access, or Tailscale. An internet connection is required.
+
+The app gets the signed-in person's messaging identity from Agent Relay Cloud,
+the same identity used by the dashboard and desktop app. DMs sent from any of
+those surfaces therefore share one Relaycast conversation history on iPhone,
+iPad, macOS, and the web. Earlier messages sent from an installation-specific
+mobile agent remain in that agent's old conversations. APNs refreshes an active
+message screen immediately; a slower reconciliation read remains for missed
+notifications.
+
+People in the roster and Messages list show their Cloud display name and profile
+photo, including the header of an open conversation. The app loads public profile
+fields from `GET /api/v1/workspaces/{workspaceId}/messaging/people` with its existing
+Cloud credential and joins them to human peers by exact handle. Profile data stays
+in memory and is cleared on workspace changes and sign-out. Photos use anonymous
+HTTPS requests without Cloud credentials or cookies; unsafe URLs, unavailable
+photos and older Cloud servers fall back to the person's initials. Agent artwork
+is unchanged. This is an iPhone/iPad client integration; the macOS and Linux clients
+already have their own Cloud people/avatar flow and are unaffected.
+
+## Install
+
+The App Store Connect listing is **Agent Relay Code** (`com.agentworkforce.relayipad`). Its Home Screen label is **Agent Relay**. The same TestFlight invitation works on iPhone and iPad.
+
+After installing, tap **Sign in**, open the Agent Relay approval link in Safari, and approve this device. The app stores the Relaycast workspace key, the person's Cloud-issued messaging token, and a Cloud refresh token in the iOS Keychain. Sign out in Settings to remove them. Users who signed in before build 8 need to tap **Enable summaries** once in Settings to grant the Cloud credential. When a generated summary is unavailable, the app shows the agent's published objective, its native session title, and the original user request from uploaded session events, when available. Native titles arrive with the roster and do not request generation. OpenClaw and Hermes gateway agents have a title but no linked single conversation; their agent IDs are not used to request History summaries.
+
+In **Agents**, the roster shows reachable peers by default; choose **All** when you intentionally need inactive history. Both filters exclude your signed-in identity and old forwarding names from renamed agents. Other people remain available to message. Temporary Relaycast database overloads are retried automatically for safe reads using the server's requested delay. Tap **Start an agent** to choose an online machine and one of the agent types it advertises. The first time you use a project on that machine, save its name and full folder path there, starting with `/` (`~` is not expanded); the app keeps a project list per machine for future starts. Folders on an external drive may not be readable by the machine's background agents. A project is optional for a general task. Enter a unique agent name and task, then start it. The app waits for the machine's readiness receipt, or for the machine to list the agent as running, before claiming the agent is running; if neither arrives within about two minutes it says the start is unconfirmed so you can check **Agents** before trying again. A failed start explains the cause and keeps the machine's message under **Details**. A live fleet agent has a **Release** button in its detail view; the app confirms the stop and checks the node's receipt. Pin an agent from its row to keep it at the top of that section; pins are saved per workspace and section on this device. Agent rows show the machine as `@machine`. In a conversation, tap the paperclip to upload files and include them with a message; tap a received or sent attachment to open its download link. Chat messages clear from the composer immediately, show a pending bubble, and can be edited again if delivery cannot be confirmed. Your latest message shows **Sent**, then **Delivered** once Relaycast lists the agent as a reader of it, which the broker records when it puts the message into the agent's session. New incoming messages show a blue dot on iPhone and iPad; opening the chat clears it, and the device remembers that state after restart. The app reconciles relay presence every 30 seconds while open, when returning to the foreground, and when switching tabs. **Messages** shows agent conversations only while their peer is reachable on the current relay roster; cached metadata and the **All** roster filter cannot restore a departed agent. People’s conversations remain available while they are offline. Existing messages are retained on Relaycast and return if the agent rejoins. Machine menus combine hostname variants (case, punctuation, and `.local`) and filter all matching agents together. In **Messages**, swipe left on a conversation and tap **Hide** to remove it from the list on this device without deleting anything; it comes back when a new message arrives. **Show hidden** at the end of the list shows hidden conversations, and swiping left there offers **Unhide**. Conversation groups have local date and time dividers; swipe left to reveal each message's exact local time. VoiceOver also announces the time with each message. Web links in chat are tappable. Swipe the conversation to dismiss the keyboard or tap the keyboard button, and tap **Agent overview** to collapse it.
+
+**Channels** lists the workspace's Relaycast channels, the ones you have joined first, so a channel works as a group chat between people and agents. Everyone in a channel sees every message. Each incoming message shows its sender's avatar beside it, a person's Cloud profile photo or initials, or an agent's CLI artwork, and names people by their display name. Open a channel you have not joined and tap **Join** to receive its messages, or just send one: your first message joins the channel. The app does not poll channels. A channel's messages are loaded when you open it, when the app returns to the foreground and when a channel notification arrives. A notification for the channel you are viewing updates it in place without a banner, and tapping one opens the channel. Live updates need the Relaycast channel push service. Thread replies stay in their threads and are not shown yet.
+
+For development, open `AgentRelayiPad.xcodeproj` in Xcode and run the `AgentRelayiPad` scheme. Its `AgentRelayUnitTests` target covers app logic such as hidden conversations. The project is generated from `project.yml` with XcodeGen. SwiftTerm supplies the terminal emulator.
+
+## TestFlight releases
+
+Use the **iOS TestFlight** workflow's `inventory_only` option to read Apple's
+current versions, processing states and **Internal Devices** build membership
+without an upload or any tester changes. The read-only mode reports explicit
+membership separately from the group's access to all builds. Its short-lived
+API token permits only GET requests, and the report excludes credentials and
+tester identities.
+
+Increment `CFBundleVersion` and `CURRENT_PROJECT_VERSION` in `project.yml`, then run the **iOS TestFlight** workflow from GitHub Actions. The workflow uses a macOS 26 runner with a current iOS SDK, signs and uploads the app to App Store Connect, and requires the dedicated `APPLE_MOBILE_API_KEY_BASE64`, `APPLE_MOBILE_API_KEY_ID`, and `APPLE_MOBILE_API_ISSUER` repository secrets. The team API key needs Admin access for Apple's cloud-managed distribution signing. Check App Store Connect processing and the **Internal Devices** group before telling testers to update.
+
+
+Choose `internal` (the default) for internal TestFlight-only builds, or `app-store` for a build eligible for App Store review and TestFlight. Internal-only uploads cannot be converted into review-eligible builds. The `app-store` path uses `ExportOptions-AppStore.plist`; uploading does not submit or publish the app. Build 33 is a draft release candidate: do not upload it until the direct account-deletion URL in Settings is implemented and tested, the live build-number inventory is checked, and a maintainer approves the upload.
+
+Settings and the sign-in screen link to the privacy policy and support page. Account deletion links directly to `https://agentrelay.com/cloud/account/delete`, which must be deployed and verified before release; sign-out only removes this device's credentials. The draft remains blocked until that production page completes the deletion flow. `PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy` declares app-scoped UserDefaults access; it does not replace the App Store privacy questionnaire or assert that no data is collected.
+
+## Experimental Claude continuation
+
+On the Mac or Linux computer running Claude, enable **Continue Claude from mobile
+(Experimental)** in Agent Relay Settings → Relay once. This candidate requires
+Claude Code 2.1.310 or later in the 2.1 release series. Restart Claude or run
+`/reload-plugins` once in an already-open session after enabling the setting.
+Keep that session and Agent Relay running. Send your message in the existing
+mobile conversation; reading it sends nothing. The session stays in place with
+its existing conversation and permissions. Native tool prompts can be approved
+or denied by the verified machine owner for that single request only.
+
+Connecting or a queued message is not a delivery confirmation. A failed or
+uncertain connection asks you to check message status before trying again.
+The offline `MobileHandoffUITests` exercise these states without a production
+account; the Mobile CI workflow saves their screenshots with the test results.
+
+For this first experimental candidate, first enable **Accept spawns from Agent
+Relay** in Settings and wait for the computer to be claimed by your signed-in
+account. Mobile Claude continuation uses that existing ownership proof. Enabling
+continuation before the claim is ready is refused before any plugin or setting
+change; a peer message cannot establish the claim.
+
+After your first mobile message, replies stay synced to your phone, including
+replies to later messages you type in that same desktop conversation. They stay
+bound to the verified owner and current control generation. Before mobile
+engagement, desktop replies are not forwarded. Permission prompts for turns you
+start on the desktop continue to use Claude's native desktop prompt.
+
+The native bridge currently supports macOS and Linux only. Windows shows the
+setting as unavailable until Claude's native connection is verified with named
+pipes. The plugin connects directly from Claude; tool subprocesses are refused.

+# Agent Relay for Linux
+
+Settings → Relay includes **Continue Claude from mobile (Experimental)**, with
+the same wording and default-off behavior as macOS. Enable it once for this
+computer. Use Claude Code 2.1.310 or later in the 2.1 release series, then
+restart Claude or run `/reload-plugins` once in an already-open session. Mobile messages continue that same session with its existing permissions;
+reading the conversation sends nothing. Claude must remain running. Owner-only
+single-action approvals expire after five minutes; peers cannot approve them.
+See [the shared flow and limits](../docs/workspace-layout.md). An unsupported
+native runtime reports unavailable rather than changing session permissions.
+
+Core diagnostics are saved in the app data directory's `logs/core.log`
+(`~/.local/share/com.agentrelay.desktop/logs/core.log` by default, respecting
+`XDG_DATA_HOME` and `--app-data-dir`). Credentials are redacted; the log rotates
+at 1 MiB with three backups. The systemd user service also sends these
+diagnostics to the journal (`journalctl --user -u agent-relay.service`).
+Logging failures do not prevent core operation. Raw child output and request
+or message bodies are not captured.
+
+The same GTK app also runs on Windows; Windows readers, see
+[windows/README.md](../windows/README.md) for installing, building and what differs.
+
+Existing Pi sessions can receive Relay messages without a Pi upgrade or
+restart. The core installs the extension; run `/reload` once in Pi, then enable
+**Receives messages** in the session table. Delivery waits for idle and confirms
+the message in Pi’s history. See [Pi delivery](../docs/pi-existing-session-injection.md).
+
+Pi queues preserve arrival order while busy, and channel batch answers reply to
+the last post. A failed extension installation remains visible in status details
+and Settings → Relay on both platforms; fix the conflict or permissions and
+restart Agent Relay to retry, then run `/reload` in Pi.
+
+Spawn recovery and startup diagnostics run in the shared core on both platforms.
+Known spawn origins survive legacy store merges; Codex origins omitted by an old
+writer can be restored from matching local receipts and Relaycast identity.
+Failed launches preserve redacted harness reasons in durable completion receipts,
+core logs and hosted status, including through older brokers that accept only
+plain error strings. Ended intents retire after acknowledged cleanup. CLI failure
+logs include argv, observed exit status and a bounded output tail; Codex's
+app-server RPC has no per-launch exit status. OpenCode warns when model startup remains
+unverified; Grok reports clearly missing default credentials as unavailable.
+
+Replicas launches use Agent Relay Cloud through the same shared contract on
+Linux and macOS: environment listing, durable spawn/status, and release.
+Spawning remains an agent operation; no GTK-only button or background service
+is added. The [existing operator bridge](../integrations/replicas/README.md)
+can remain while the Cloud integration rolls out.
+
+Cursor Cloud agents use that same shared core on Linux, macOS and Windows.
+They are identified as `cursor-cloud`, separate from the removed local
+`cursor-agent` target. Agent operations can list models and agents, launch,
+inject follow-ups, inspect results, archive and restore; Cloud holds the Cursor
+credential and routes Relay messages into the provider's native follow-up API.
+There is no GTK-only launch form. See [Cursor Cloud agents](../docs/cursor-cloud.md).
+
+Native spawning includes Muse through a detached Relay-owned terminal host.
+Its startup task is a CLI argument and later messages use a courier restricted
+to that owned process; Relay never types into the terminal. Muse sessions
+started elsewhere are not listed or messaged. Muse's sandbox is on by default. The core
+publishes the same harness settings and wording for the GTK and macOS apps.
+The shared core records Muse's detached host before launching its child so a
+restart during startup can recover or stop the exact owned process group.
+
+Spawned Muse and Devin expose a per-launch MCP tool for Relay messages. It uses
+the authenticated local session socket and accepts only the recipient, message
+text, and optional reply parent. Shell sandboxing stays enabled by default;
+Relay replies do not require granting shell access to the socket.
+
+The native GTK desktop app for Agent Relay. It is a thin client of the relay
+core, the `agent-relay-probe relay serve` daemon bundled with it
+([relay core](../docs/relay-core.md)): every screen renders the core's state,
+and every action is a bridge call. Sign-in, uploads, delivery into sessions,
+messaging, the fleet, telemetry and launch at login all run in the core.
+
+The app follows the Mac app's local-first layout (see
+[workspace layout](../docs/workspace-layout.md)). Startup opens the session list
+for this computer: one table for running agents and historical sessions. A single
+header holds the Agent Relay logo and canonical wordmark, **Search or filter sessions…**,
+the icon-only **Table display** control, and the avatar menu with **Settings…** and **Log out…**.
+**Ctrl+,** opens Settings. The search panel offers **Receives messages** and
+**Does not receive messages** as mutually exclusive filters, displayed as readable
+chips. They match confirmed registrations (including offline sessions) or their
+absence and preserve other filters, grouping, and sorting. Removing the chip
+includes both message states again. Sessions stay current automatically.
+
+- **Filters:** activity, message reception, harness, upload status and updated dates live in one
+  popover. Choosing Active adds `is:active` to the visible search; running
+  sessions have an Active label in their row. Combine `title: Foo`,
+  `project:cloud`, `harness:codex`, `upload:uploaded`, and
+  `updated:>=2026-10-01`. Quoted phrases, exclusions and inclusive date ranges
+  (`updated:2026-10-01..2026-10-11`) work too. Dates use UTC. Search help lists
+  the syntax, and Clear resets search and filters together. All filters apply
+  to the same list. The header logo returns from a conversation,
+  preserving the query and grouping. As on macOS, Filters stays open while
+  combining choices and during background refreshes; Done, Escape, or a click
+  outside dismisses it. Group by closes after choosing a grouping. Both apps
+  share fixtures for search results and menu edits to the query.
+- **Sessions:** local history joined to local relay discovery, with a **Receives messages** status orb
+  and an **Upload** toggle. Cloud-style striped rows group by
+  None, Harness, Project, Status, or Week, with tinted headers and counts.
+  Labels prefer RelayHistory's harness-provided catalog title, falling back to
+  prompt text when no title is available, matching macOS.
+  Project names come from local Git repository metadata when available, so
+  linked worktrees and nested directories group under the repository name.
+  Relay broker controller roots show no project instead of the machine-node
+  folder; other non-repository directories retain their folder-name fallback.
+  Search and harness/upload-status filters narrow the loaded list; older history
+  loads invisibly as you approach the end of the list. Discovered sessions awaiting
+  upload indexing remain visible, labeled Indexing. Other machines and teammates are viewed in Cloud.
+  As on macOS, a running Codex, Claude Code, Grok, OpenCode, Muse or Devin
+  session on the relay is one row with its transcript, joined by the core's
+  upload key, so its transcript shows its real messaging state; putting one on
+  the relay also uploads it. Registered Grok CLI sessions use Grok's title.
+  Claude app, OpenClaw, Hermes and Pi relay rows are listed on their own.
+  As on macOS, Grok sessions explicitly marked as subagents stay in local
+  history but do not appear as separate rows, even without a recorded parent;
+  refreshing the catalog also corrects previously cached sessions.
+  Previously selected Grok subagents are removed from independent upload
+  selection before delivery; children with recorded parents share with them.
+  As on macOS, Grok Bot (the desktop app, a `grok-bot` source separate from the
+  Grok CLI) lists one session per bot from the app's local transcript tail
+  (about the last 200 entries or 7 days), and a Codex thread whose rollout file
+  was pruned is recovered from Codex's SQLite history; such a thread moves with
+  its catalog row, like a session in a shared database.
+  OpenClaw (an `openclaw` source, RelayHistory 0.49.0) lists each OpenClaw
+  agent's sessions, its main chat, channel chats, Agent Relay conversations,
+  cron and subagent chats, read from `~/.openclaw` (or `OPENCLAW_STATE_DIR`) on
+  every OpenClaw from 2026.3 (its agent database from 2026.8.1, its JSONL
+  session store before), one row per conversation: every heartbeat or cron run
+  of a key is part of that row, and follows the session-sharing mode as on the
+  Mac. Antigravity (an `antigravity` source) and Oh My Pi (an `omp` source)
+  are listed too, from `~/.gemini/antigravity*/brain` and `~/.omp/agent/sessions`,
+  as on the Mac.
+- **Session titles:** open a session and choose the quiet **Rename** button
+  beside its transcript-header title, matching macOS and Windows. The title
+  edits in place with the same typography and no input border or background.
+  The table has no rename controls and does not preload title suggestions.
+  Enter or **Done** saves; Escape or **Cancel editing** cancels. Moving focus
+  outside the entire editor saves after a short debounce, allowing movement
+  between its text and buttons without submitting. Unchanged titles do not
+  write, and typing does not send requests. **Use generated title** fills the
+  draft and refocuses it without saving. Opening the session preloads its saved
+  pipeline title, with bounded reads and a cache scoped to harness and session;
+  neither preloading nor the sparkle button starts generation. The sparkle
+  appears while editing once a saved title is available. Native support comes from
+  `sessions.title.capability`, and saving calls `sessions.title.set` to update
+  the original harness. Unsupported sessions explain the limitation in the
+  Rename tooltip. Saves appear immediately and roll back with an error on
+  failure, preserving the rejected draft for retry. Reconnecting retires
+  interrupted title requests; changing accounts clears cached suggestions and
+  edits. Leaving the session cancels delayed saves. A confirmed optimistic title
+  expires after at most one minute and refreshes from the source, so later
+  harness changes remain visible. Editing never sends an agent prompt or
+  changes the Relay messaging name.
+- **Capy detected:** where Capy's device connector has created `~/.capy`, a
+  card above the session table offers to put Capy threads on Agent Relay, as
+  on the Mac (which also looks for `Capy.app`). **Set up in Capy** copies the
+  setup prompt and opens https://capy.ai, then says **Prompt copied. Paste it
+  into a Capy thread.**; **Not now** hides the card for good
+  (`capySetupDismissed` in `desktop.json`). Capy threads run on Capy's
+  servers, so nothing is installed locally: the Capy thread proposes the Agent
+  Relay plugin and the person approves it once.
+- **Devin found:** while the core reports Devin's hooks off
+  (`devin_direct_delivery` false), a card above the session table offers to
+  add them, as on the Mac. **Turn On** sends the setting and shows the core's
+  error under the card if it fails; the card goes once the hooks are on.
+  **Not now** hides it for good (`devinSetupDismissed` in `desktop.json`).
+- Starting Capy threads is an agent operation, so the account and Agents/Team
+  overflow menus omit **Start Capy thread…**, as on macOS. The relay core keeps
+  its Capy project, spawn and binding-status methods available to agents. The
+  workspace Capy key stays in Cloud.
+- Detailed upload stages and journal compaction live under **Settings → Session
+  sharing → Upload details**. The status bar keeps upload state and pause/resume.
+  When a problem that is not retried on its own stops uploads, session rows read
+  **Upload stopped** and the upload stage offers **Retry uploads**.
+  Uploads that keep failing on a server error or a dropped connection read
+  **Waiting to retry** while they wait out a backoff of at most five minutes,
+  and the upload stage offers **Retry uploads** too; a rate limit only waits.
+  A Retry or Compact that could not reach the background service is sent on
+  its own once the service answers again, and its message clears.
+  **Live Agents on Relay: N** opens Sessions with `is:active is:on-relay`, replacing
+  previous search filters and returning from any open transcript.
+- **Settings:** General (appearance, open at login, keep agents connected after quitting, privacy, a disabled preview of session-history retention until relayhistory can enforce it, and service recovery when needed), Updates (software updates),
+  Diagnostics (log files and expandable, copyable diagnostic reports), Messages (connect the account workspace or
+  paste a key, Claude Code direct delivery, Grok leader mode, the OpenCode plugin, OpenClaw agents (any OpenClaw from 2026.3.13; one older

+  ([openclaw-hermes-delivery.md](../docs/openclaw-hermes-delivery.md)), the Devin hooks,
+  self-registration, spawned agents, incoming messages to Codex threads), Session sharing and Account.
+  **Spawned agents** lets Agent Relay start agents here, headless, as on the Mac
+  ([native-spawn.md](../docs/native-spawn.md)), with the same **Allow teammates to spawn
+  here** switch (and the claim under it), an optional **Max spawned agents**
+  number field, and full-access switches, one for each harness the core describes
+  and the node offers. Leave the cap empty for **No limit** (the default), or set
+  1–32. The old untouched default of 12 becomes unlimited; explicitly saved caps
+  remain. Clearing the field sends `spawn_max_agents: 0`, Relaycast’s documented
+  unlimited sentinel, matching macOS. Save with **Save** or Enter; leaving the field or refreshing Settings does not apply an unfinished edit. Failed saves show the error and restore the confirmed cap.
+  A spawned agent's first message names the agent that asked for it and how to
+  report back over the session socket; a spawned Claude or Codex that sends
+  nothing has its first turn's final answer sent to the requester
+  ([native-spawn.md](../docs/native-spawn.md#reporting-back-to-the-requester)).
+  A spawned Codex or Claude takes the signed-in machine owner's messages as
+  plain user turns; other agents, its requester included, stay peer-framed.
+  Its approvals (Codex's app-server requests, Claude's permission prompts)
+  reach only the owner as Relay DMs; replies use a short reference and expire
+  to denial. A spawned Claude that has ended is never resumed: a message to it
+  is not delivered, and its sender is told the session has ended.
+  Devin uses a persistent private ACP host, remains messageable while idle, and defaults
+  to accept-edits. A launch-specific MCP server permits only Agent Relay sends
+  through the authenticated local session socket; other approval requests are refused. It requires `devin auth login`
+  when `devin auth status` reports signed out. Each runs in a systemd scope of its own, so restarting or updating
+  `agent-relay.service` leaves it running. Codex is offered only when its
+  app-server daemon can run here: a Codex installed only through npm or a
+  version manager such as mise cannot start one, so install Codex with its own
+  installer to spawn it (see native-spawn.md). Follow-up messages resume a
+  native Codex spawn's unarchived thread if Codex unloaded it while idle;
+  ordinary stopped sessions still wait for their host.
+  OpenCode is offered for OpenCode 1,
+  whose server the spawn drives; its server runs in a scope of its own too.
+  Grok is offered from version
+  1.0.46; an older one is refused with a reason that says to run `grok update`.
+  Spawned OpenCode replies use the session socket: the spawn loads Agent
+  Relay's OpenCode plugin into that private server itself, whether or not it
+  is installed globally, and never writes to `~/.config/opencode`; the core
+  verifies its process and sealed binding, and never identifies a managed
+  caller from a session tag alone.
+- Agents lists running sessions only, with the Mac's harness marks (Capy
+  threads on the relay show the Capy mark, run in the cloud and group under
+  Capy); a
+  registered session whose process ended keeps its name and queued messages
+  off the list until it runs again, and Grok sessions are listed from Grok's
+  own live-session registry and bound to Grok's leader when added; with
+  automatic activation on, one whose leader runs is added by itself, is
+  rebound when Grok restarts its leader, and leaves after the grace period
+  when it cannot be rebound. Claude Code
+  direct delivery and Grok leader mode are on by default wherever those tools
+  are installed and the person has not set them; turning one off here keeps it
+  off.
+  Live Devin CLI sessions are listed too: each `devin` process proves its
+  session by the `session_locks/<id>.lock` it holds open, a session can
+  register itself from inside its own process tree, and a relayed message is
+  written as a `session/prompt` frame into a terminal session's `acp` stdin
+  through `/proc` — immediate, even while the session sits idle — or, when no
+  such pipe is reachable (a Devin Desktop session's `acp` speaks over a
+  socketpair), staged into `~/.local/share/devin/relay/inbox.d/` for the next
+  hook boundary. The *Devin sessions*
+  row (`devin_direct_delivery`, offered in Sessions where Devin has run, never
+  turned on by itself) adds or
+  removes Agent Relay's lifecycle hooks in `~/.config/devin/config.json`;
+  the hooks drain staged messages into the conversation at each boundary —
+  a session started before they were on fires none and must be restarted.
+  When the Devin CLI is signed in, the inventory also polls the org's Devin
+  cloud sessions (at most every five minutes, through the `devin-cloud`
+  connector) so they appear alongside the local ones. They are listed in
+  the sessions table too, hosted by *Devin Cloud*: one auto-activates like
+  a local session and stays live while the sign-in resolves. A relayed
+  message to a cloud session — any Devin session not running locally — is
+  posted into it through the connector, which needs the `ManageOrgSessions`
+  scope; the send's result is reported once and never repeated, since the
+  Devin API cannot deduplicate a reposted message.
+  Claude Code cloud sessions on claude.ai are listed and uploaded the same
+  way (the `claude-web` connector, at most every five minutes) once
+  **Claude Code cloud sessions** is turned on under *Claude Code folders*,
+  with the login in `~/.claude/.credentials.json`, never refreshed or
+  changed; an expired one is not used. They go with the `~/.claude` folder's
+  Shared switch. On the Mac the login can also come from Claude Code's
+  Keychain item, so its row also explains macOS's prompt; Linux has none.
+  Claude Code sessions on a second Claude login (`~/.claude-<name>`,
+  `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`) are listed too, and direct delivery applies to every
+  login, as on the Mac. *Claude Code folders* in Settings › Relay lists every
+  Claude Code config folder whose sessions are found and uploaded: the
+  default, sibling logins, `AGENT_RELAY_CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIRS`, folders added with
+  *Add Folder…*, and any `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` a running Claude Code session
+  uses (such as `~/.seclaude`). Turning a folder's switch off keeps its
+  sessions off the relay and out of uploads. Wherever a Claude login directory
+  exists, *Claude Code activation* (`claude_session_hook`, off by default)
+  adds or removes the same SessionStart hook in each of those logins'
+  `settings.json`. In an unregistered session the hook has Claude ask you
+  whether to put it on the relay and under what name, and POST /register only
+  if you say yes. A session already on the relay gets a short preamble with its
+  relay name, how to reach peers and the messaging norm. The hook never
+  registers it.
+- Relay & messages includes the Mac's **Claude Code message approvals**, collapsed
+  by default. Expand it to choose direct delivery or **Ask first** per session,
+  manage the optional allowed-members restriction, and use held-message actions **Approve once**, **Always allow**
+  and **Dismiss**. The core saves these choices before using Claude Code's
+  inbox, independently of the login-wide `crossSessionInbound` setting.
+- The Linux UI understands the shared `paseo` host value, labels it "Codex in
+  Paseo" and carries Paseo's badge on the Codex mark. Current automatic Paseo
+  process discovery is macOS-only because its proof is the packaged
+  `Paseo.app` helper ancestry; this applies to both Codex and top-level Claude
+  Code chats. No equivalent Linux package contract is known.
+- Not on Linux: the Conductor badge on Codex and Claude Code sessions that run
+  in a Conductor workspace. Conductor is a Mac app, so a Linux machine has no
+  Conductor sessions; the core's Conductor handling (listing its Codex
+  sessions as live, their titles, `host` on session rows) is shared and simply
+  never applies here.
+- Settings → Relay has **Show me relay messages in full**
+  (`show_relay_messages`, off by default), as on the Mac: relay messages are
+  hidden from Codex app chats, and a terminal Codex or Claude Code session,
+  which only accepts visible text, shows a two-line pointer naming the sender
+  and the packaged probe's `relay read <ref>`, which the agent runs to read
+  the message. The agent still gets each message in full and can reply;
+  the setting only changes what you see.
+  The message's authority note lets work already authorized in the receiving
+  session continue within the harness's permissions. A peer's approval claim
+  grants nothing new; Claude's native peer restrictions still apply. The note
+  is shared with macOS and Windows.
+- Settings → Relay has **New agents join #general** (`auto_join_general`, off
+  by default) and, once an agent has changed a setting on the session socket
+  (`PATCH /settings`), **Changed by agents** with the latest changes, as on
+  the Mac.
+- Not on Linux: putting Claude desktop app chats on the relay automatically.
+  Claude's desktop app has no Linux build, so the shared check (a
+  `claude-desktop` session under this user's `Claude.app`) never matches here.
+- Not on Linux: the *Conductor Codex chats* row (`codex_stop_hook`), which
+  adds Agent Relay's Codex Stop hook so relayed messages show in Conductor's
+  Codex chats. The core reports it only where Conductor's data directory
+  exists, which is never on Linux.
+- Sign-in in the browser sharing only the sessions you choose, as on the Mac
+  (nothing uploads until a session's Upload switch is on). The sign-in panel shows
+  **Get your agents on the relay** followed by **Sign in with Google**, with
+  direct-delivery preferences in Settings; Messages with
+  several conversations, each saying whether its recipient runs (**Queue
+  Anyway** for one that does not), what Relaycast holds for the last message
+  sent and whether a reply is expected; Recent Messages; a tray menu counting sessions receiving messages and local only, and
+  uploaded and not, each opening the session list with that search, with
+  All sessions, Settings and Quit controls; `agentrelay://connect` and `agentrelay://message?to=agent%40machine`
+  links.
+
+Codex app-server and desktop-window messages stay pending while the current
+turn runs. After it finishes, delivery starts a separate turn; peer messages
+and incoming cloud messages use the same idle check on macOS and Linux.
+Waiting does not consume a send attempt. Live terminal sessions continue to
+use Codex's own queue, which waits for the current turn to finish. Conductor's
+existing Stop-hook delivery remains a separate host-specific route.
+
+## Controls answer at once
+
+Every control that changes the core (the upload policy, pause and resume,
+retry and compact, Settings switches, launch at login, renaming an agent or
+putting a session on the relay under a name, sending a message, Codex thread
+sharing and held-message approvals, Claude Code delivery choices, releasing a
+fleet worker) shows the change the moment it is made, as on the Mac: the
+intent is kept beside the core's last answer and drawn over it until the core
+confirms it. A refused change goes back to what the core reports and its
+reason shows beside the control; clicking again while a change is still
+saving makes the last click win. `docs/workspace-layout.md` describes the
+pattern and `probe/src/linux_app/models/pending.rs` holds the shared state.
+
+## How it runs
+
+`agent-relay-desktop` is a Rust binary: the probe crate's
+`agent-relay-desktop` built with its
+`gtk` feature (GTK 4.6 or later, no libadwaita, a StatusNotifierItem tray).
+
+- **With a display:** `agent-relay-desktop` opens the app. It connects to the core on
+  `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.sock` (`AGENT_RELAY_CORE_SOCKET` names
+  another). When no core answers, it starts the `agent-relay.service` systemd
+  user unit if the person enabled it; the unit keeps agents connected and
+  uploads running after the app quits and starts it at login, as the Mac's
+  LaunchAgent does, and Settings › General offers to turn it on if needed. An
+  enabled unit owns the socket: when systemd cannot confirm its start, the app
+  waits for it and never starts a second core beside it. Otherwise the app
+  starts its core as its child. **Keep agents connected after quitting** (on
+  by default, as on the Mac) leaves that core running when the app quits, and
+  the next launch connects to it; one left running from before an update is
+  stopped and replaced. Turned off, quitting stops the core with
+  `daemon.shutdown`, and turning it off while the unit runs first asks to turn
+  the unit off (`systemctl --user disable --now`), since that is the person's
+  choice to stop agents when the app quits. `--background` starts in the tray.
+- **Headless (SSH, tmux, servers):** the systemd user unit runs the core
+  directly, with no GTK:
+
+  ```sh
+  systemctl --user enable --now agent-relay.service
+  /usr/lib/agent-relay/agent-relay-probe relay call status.get --json
+  ```
+
+  `agent-relay-desktop --headless` runs the same core in the foreground. Headless
+  startup applies the agent-led defaults: Claude Code direct delivery,
+  automatic activation, and uploads of only the sessions you choose (sharing
+  mode `selected`), so nothing uploads until a session is chosen. An install
+  that already has a sharing mode keeps it.
+
+However it runs, the core starts its session collector (`agent-relay-probe
+run`), which reads local sessions, lists them and uploads the ones being
+shared, at nice 19, so it yields to everything else; the core itself, and the
+agents it starts, keep normal priority. Unlike the Mac's *Agent Relay Helper*
+and *Agent Relay Helper (Sessions)*, both keep the name `agent-relay-probe` in
+process lists: it is the installed file the service unit, the updater and
+agents' commands name.
+
+The app runs the first core of: `RELAY_DESKTOP_PROBE` (when non-blank),
+`agent-relay-probe` beside its executable (a cargo build), and
+`usr/lib/agent-relay/agent-relay-probe` in its install tree.
+
+The window is `probe/src/linux_app/ui`; everything it runs on is the rest of
+`probe/src/linux_app`:
+
+| Module | What it is |
+|---|---|
+| `ui/app.rs` | The application: lifecycle, core events, sign-in, links, the tray's actions, dialogs |
+| `ui/capy_spawn.rs` | The Cloud-backed Start Capy thread form, progress, binding follow-up and Message action |
+| `ui/state.rs` | What the window shows, as data: the screen, navigation, the core's answers |
+| `ui/shell.rs` | The global header, settings sidebar, page heading and status bar |
+| `ui/relay.rs` | The listings every surface shares, and switching sessions on the relay |
+| `ui/settings_page.rs` | Every Settings pane, the background service and software updates |
+| `ui/pages.rs` | The four pages' roots in the page stack, and what a redraw keeps (an agent's tools, open conversations) |
+| `ui/agents_page.rs` | My agents: sessions with their relay switch, details and per-agent tools, fleet workers, agents on other machines; the roster rows, overview card and banners Team reuses |
+| `ui/sessions_page.rs` | Local session table, Cloud-style grouping and filters, relay/upload controls; upload diagnostics used by Settings |
+| `ui/transcript.rs` | A local session's transcript and its sidebar |
+| `ui/spawn_join.rs` | A spawned agent's live transcript and message box, and opening its session |
+| `ui/spawn_take_over.rs` | Taking a spawned Claude over: stopping it headless and resuming it in Terminal |
+| `ui/setup_cards.rs` | The Sessions page's Capy and Devin setup cards |
+| `ui/core_settings.rs` | Reading and changing the core's settings for Settings and the setup cards |
+| `ui/team_page.rs` | Team: a card per teammate with their running agents on the relay |
+| `ui/messages.rs` | Messages (open conversations, the recipient's state, Queue Anyway, what Relaycast holds for the last message, whether a reply is expected) and Recent Messages |
+| `ui/widgets.rs` | Shared rows, banners, settings rows, avatars, marks and dots |
+| `ui/theme.rs` | The light and dark palettes and following the desktop's color scheme |
+| `ui/tray.rs` | The tray menu, served as a StatusNotifierItem |
+| `ui/desktop.rs` | Opening links (`xdg-open`), notifications, dialogs and quitting |
+| `bridge.rs` | The bridge client: NDJSON JSON-RPC, the handshake, events, pooled calls, reconnecting |
+| `host.rs` | Starting the core as the app's child when no other answers |
+| `service.rs` | The `agent-relay.service` systemd user unit |
+| `install.rs` | The install tree and which core the app runs |
+| `updates.rs` | Checking for, verifying and installing releases; the app launcher entry |
+| `prefs.rs` | The app's own preferences (`~/.config/agent-relay/desktop.json`) |
+| `models/` | Wording, states and filters, ported from the Mac's `RelayDesktopCore` |
+| `fake_core.rs` | An in-process fake of the core, for tests and `agent-relay-fake-core` |
+
+GTK owns the main thread and every widget; the bridge and the tray run on a
+tokio runtime, and each answer is awaited on the GLib main context, so the
+window's state is touched only on the main thread. The artwork in
+`probe/resources/linux` and `assets/agent-relay-wordmark.svg` is embedded in
+the binary.
+
+Updates: a per-user install under `~/.local/lib/agent-relay/<version>` updates
+itself (download, SHA-256 check against the release, unpack beside the running
+version, repoint the systemd unit, restart). A `.deb` install downloads the
+verified package for the system package manager.
+
+The first release whose app is named `agent-relay-desktop` needs a one-time
+manual upgrade from an older per-user tarball install: the old in-app updater
+requires `usr/bin/agent-relay` in the downloaded tree, which the renamed
+package deliberately no longer provides. Install the new `.deb`, or download
+and unpack the new tarball as described below. In-app updates work normally
+again after that release. Existing `.deb` installs can upgrade through apt.
+
+App launcher: a per-user install lists itself in the desktop's app launcher
+with `~/.local/share/applications/agent-relay.desktop` (under
+`$XDG_DATA_HOME` when set) and its icon. The entry runs the install's
+`usr/bin/agent-relay-desktop` by its full path, because the npm Agent Relay
+CLI is also named `agent-relay`. An update writes it for the new version, the
+app refreshes it whenever a per-user install starts, and
+`agent-relay-desktop --install-launcher` writes it without opening the window,
+for a headless or scripted install. Started from the `.deb`, the app removes
+the per-user entry a former per-user install left, which would hide the
+package's own. An entry not written by the app is left alone.
+
+The shared probe automatically recovers a rotated Cloud workspace key when
+Relaycast rejects it: refresh the app's retained Cloud session, resolve the same
+workspace and origin, and verify the replacement with one safe read before saving
+it. Sign-out or a changed workspace cancels recovery. Failed writes are not replayed.
+macOS uses this same core behavior.
+
+## Headless install or update
+
+On a server, or any machine without the app, one command installs the
+GTK-free core for the current user and runs it as `agent-relay.service`; run
+it again to update:
+
+```sh
+curl -fsSL https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash
+bash linux/install.sh --version 2026.10.34   # a given release
+bash linux/install.sh --rollback             # back to the previous one
+bash linux/install.sh --dry-run              # say what would change
+```
+
+It finds what is installed (its own `~/.local/lib/agent-relay/current`, the
+app updater's per-user layout, or the `.deb`, which it leaves to apt), downloads
+`AgentRelay-<version>-Linux-<arch>-probe.tar.gz`, checks it against the
+release's `.sha256` and that the binary reports that version, and switches
+`current` to it. It then restarts the service and waits for the core to
+answer with the new version, switching back (and dropping the failed version)
+if it does not, or if systemd refuses to start it. Moving over from the app
+updater's layout keeps that core as a version, so `--rollback` can go back to
+it. Three versions are kept. Settings, sign-in and agents live in
+`$XDG_DATA_HOME/com.agentrelay.desktop` and are never touched; spawned agents
+keep running through the restart. It never runs anything as root and does
+not enable lingering: on a server it prints the `loginctl enable-linger`
+command to run once. Releases carry a checksum, not a signature, so the
+checksum proves the file is the published one, not who published it.
+`scripts/test-linux-install.sh` runs it against a fake release server.
+
+## Run from source
+
+The app needs GTK 4 and `pkg-config`. Cargo builds the core beside it, which
+it runs when no other core answers:
+
+```sh
+sudo apt install libgtk-4-dev pkg-config librsvg2-common
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop --bin agent-relay-probe
+probe/target/debug/agent-relay-desktop
+```
+
+`agent-relay-fake-core` stands in for the core, for a look at the app with no
+account:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop --bin agent-relay-fake-core
+AGENT_RELAY_CORE_SOCKET=/tmp/fake-core.sock RELAY_DESKTOP_PROBE="$PWD/probe/target/debug/agent-relay-fake-core" probe/target/debug/agent-relay-desktop
+```
+
+`--background` starts it in the tray. On macOS (`brew install gtk4
+pkg-config`) it builds and runs for development, without a tray.
+
+## Tests
+
+`probe/src/linux_app` (the bridge client, core hosting, the systemd service,
+preferences, updates and wording) and the `agent-relay-desktop` binary are tested with
+the probe, against an in-process fake core and `agent-relay-fake-core`;
+`linux_package` builds the package from stand-ins and installs it with the
+updater:
+
+```sh
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked linux_app
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --test linux_app_hosting --test linux_package
+```
+
+The window's tests (`probe/tests/linux_app_gtk.rs`, the pages' cases in
+`probe/tests/linux_app_gtk/pages.rs`) drive the real widgets against the
+in-process fake core. GTK must run on the main thread, so the target has its
+own `main` and runs each case in turn; it needs a display (`xvfb-run -a` on a
+server):
+
+```sh
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --lib linux_app::ui
+xvfb-run -a cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk
+```
+
+`linux_app_core_e2e` drives a built core with the app's bridge client, and
+runs `agent-relay-desktop --headless`, against fake Relaycast and Cloud in an empty
+home; it runs when `RELAY_E2E_PROBE` names the core:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --release --bin agent-relay-probe
+RELAY_E2E_PROBE="$PWD/probe/target/release/agent-relay-probe" cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --test linux_app_core_e2e
+```
+
+No test starts a broker, PTY runtime or agent harness, or reaches a real
+Cloud, Relaycast or PostHog.
+
+## Package
+
+`scripts/build-linux.sh --version VERSION --app FILE --probe FILE` assembles a
+relocatable filesystem tree from a built app (`--features gtk`) and core, and
+produces a `.tar.gz` and, with `dpkg-deb` (or `ar`), a Debian package:
+
+| Path | Is |
+|---|---|
+| `usr/bin/agent-relay-desktop` | The app; `agent-relay` is reserved for the CLI |
+| `usr/lib/agent-relay/agent-relay-probe` | The relay core |
+| `usr/lib/systemd/user/agent-relay.service` | The systemd user unit, running the core with `relay serve --headless` |
+| `usr/share/applications/agent-relay.desktop` | The launcher entry, with both production and development link schemes |
+| `usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/agent-relay.svg` | The icon |
+| `usr/share/doc/agent-relay/LICENSE` | The Apache License 2.0 the app and core are released under |
+| `usr/share/doc/agent-relay/agent-icons-LICENSE.txt` | The license of the bundled agent icons |
+
+Run `usr/bin/agent-relay-desktop` in place or copy the tree under `/`. The
+package's `postinst` (`linux/agent-relay.postinst`) has each running systemd
+user manager reload, so `agent-relay.service` restarts the installed core. The
+package depends on `libgtk-4-1` (4.6 or later), `librsvg2-common` for the
+artwork and glibc 2.34 or later. CI and releases build both architectures
+natively on Ubuntu 22.04, the oldest GTK the app supports.
+
+Relay-owned model features use authenticated Cloud endpoints. Independently
+launched agent CLIs keep their own authentication and environment.
+
+The logged-out screen offers **Sign in with Google**, which always opens
+Google's account chooser instead of reusing a saved app or CLI session.
+macOS, Linux and Windows use this explicit browser flow and PKCE handoff
+without device-code confirmation. Local setup
+clients can opt into it with `/setup/sign-in` and `{"flow":"browser"}`; older
+and remote/headless setup clients retain device approval by default.
+
+Sessions not on the relay have a **new relay name** field in their details.
+**Set Name & Retry** registers the session with the chosen name, including after
+a workspace name conflict. Relay names are unique across the workspace.
+
+Global background errors appear as an amber **Needs attention** warning at the
+bottom left of the status bar. Hover to read the full message; on macOS, click
+to open selectable details. They do not appear as banners in settings.
+
+The welcome screen matches macOS: the Agent Relay logo and wordmark are vertically
+centered above the Codex, Claude, Cursor, OpenCode, Grok, Muse, and Devin logos, with Muse
+in blue. During startup, **Rounding up your agents** stays on one line beside compact pulsing bars at the content's right edge.
+The subtitle rotates every four seconds (unless reduced motion is enabled),
+starting with a randomly chosen message. Sign-in appears as soon as
+the service supplies its status; session discovery runs in the background.
+After 20 seconds without a ready service, the panel offers **Try again** and
+**Copy diagnostics** instead of continuing the animation.
+
+### Reading a local session
+
+Click any session row to open its local conversation, whether or not it is uploaded.
+Opening the reader uses `sessions.transcript` without enabling uploads or relay registration.
+User messages, assistant Markdown, selectable code blocks, and collapsible thinking,
+tool activity, and session context share a centered conversation column. Messages
+load automatically through the full local transcript. Copy, refresh, and retry
+controls remain available.
+
+The session title replaces search in the shared header; there is no separate
+transcript toolbar. Back to sessions sits between the wordmark and session title
+in the shared header. Matching full-width Open and Refresh buttons live in the
+compact right sidebar. The Messaging section groups Receive messages
+with the agent name field and Rename button. Naming appears only when messaging
+is enabled and a name is available, without scrolling at the minimum window size.
+Copy name copies the session's name, even while a new name is being edited.
+Helper text lives in tooltips; status and actionable errors remain visible; the
+name field's tooltip explains renaming. Upload session includes its
+local/uploading/uploaded status. Renaming changes the name other agents see on
+Relaycast, leaving the session title unchanged. A session has one name: a rename
+replaces it, so only the new name is shown and replies come from it, while the
+earlier name only forwards messages sent to it, so nothing sent while renaming
+is lost: the name the session was registered with until it leaves the relay, a
+name a later rename replaced for 24 hours.
+Turning Upload session off uses the
+existing cloud-deletion confirmation. Back to sessions keeps the table’s search,
+grouping, collapsed sections, and scroll position.
+
+Group headers are buttons with chevrons and session counts. Click to collapse or
+expand; collapsed state is independent for each grouping and survives list refreshes
+and searches. Rows, headers, and controls have hover and keyboard focus feedback.
+Actionable rows, buttons, menu triggers, and switches show a pointing-hand cursor.
+Disabled controls use the arrow cursor and suppress action hover feedback; cursor
+state follows sensitivity changes and is cleared when a hovered control disappears.
+
+### Cloud styling
+
+The global header is 64px high with a 32px logo and 24px horizontal gutters,
+matching macOS. Search and the Table display icon share that same row. Settings alone has a 244px
+sidebar; Back to sessions sits in the global header immediately after the wordmark,
+in the same position as on a transcript. Search is
+hidden in Settings and transcripts. Both platforms retain native window controls.
+
+The desktop uses the effective Cloud workspace palette from
+`cloud/packages/web/app/dashboard/_components/workspace-chrome.module.css`:
+light canvas `#f9fafb`, dark canvas `#14191f`, primary `#2d6a9c` / `#74b8e2`,
+and row hover `#e7eff7` / `#223e58`. These override the older airframe and
+marketing palettes. macOS centralizes the tokens in `CloudTheme.swift`; GTK
+uses the matching `LIGHT` / `DARK` palettes in `ui/theme.rs`. The macOS menu-bar panel
+also uses these tokens for its canvas, text, hover, and status colors. The Linux
+StatusNotifierItem menu is rendered by the desktop shell and follows the shell’s
+theme; its protocol does not provide app-controlled menu colors.
+
+Both appearances share Cloud’s 52px session rows, 28px compact filters,
+6px group corners, subtle borders, bordered count badges, and muted zebra
+stripes. Settings and local conversations use the same surfaces; code blocks
+use Cloud’s dark code palette. Light, Dark, and Match system remain available.
+
+Local transcripts hide Codex external-context XML and render embedded image
+copies from the private reader cache, matching macOS. Capture requires the
+RelayHistory embedded-image release (0.40.0 does not retain image bytes).
+PNG, JPEG, GIF and WebP copies up to 1 MiB are supported; reading a local image
+does not select its session for upload.
+
+Session titles include a compact harness · model · reasoning subtitle on both
+platforms, with the full value in a tooltip. A session on the relay leads that
+line with its agent name (`@name`, its newest name once renamed, in the foreground
+color); hovering it explains which names reach the session. Models come from the latest observed
+Codex turn context or Claude assistant record in a bounded transcript tail,
+falling back to RelayHistory's catalog model names. Reasoning shows the explicit
+Codex turn setting when available. Missing metadata is labelled unknown, including
+sessions without local transcripts. These reads share the existing one-second
+metadata budget and never hydrate or upload a transcript.
+
+Upload status sits beside the switch in the single Upload column. Local-only icons are muted; uploaded
+checkmarks use subdued neutral color. Hover labels read “Local only”, “Uploading…”,
+or “Uploaded” (other states retain their specific labels). Uploading animates an
+upward accent fill, with a steady arrow for reduced motion. The sweep represents
+activity, not a percentage: the core does not report per-session byte/record
+completion. Accessibility keeps the status available without hovering.
+
+Every visible session column header is clickable. The Upload header sorts by whether uploading is enabled.
+Click the active header again to reverse direction; an arrow marks the current
+sort. Updated defaults to newest first; text/status columns start A–Z and toggle
+columns start with enabled sessions. Missing values stay last. Sorting applies
+to loaded sessions and within groups, and persists while filtering, viewing a
+transcript, refreshing, or loading additional history.
+
+The local transcript header includes a compact Codex logo and open arrow with an
+**Open in Codex** tooltip and accessibility label (a registered
+`codex://` handler, with terminal resume as a fallback), **Open in Terminal**
+for Claude Code and Grok, and **Copy resume command**. Resume targets the
+original session ID and working directory. A missing directory hides terminal
+resume; unsupported sources and Claude cloud sessions have no local resume
+action. The launcher tries `xdg-terminal-exec`, `x-terminal-emulator`,
+GNOME Terminal, Konsole, Xfce Terminal, then xterm.
+
+**View on web**, below the open action, opens an uploaded session's Cloud page
+in the default browser. It is hidden until the session finishes uploading.
+
+A session Agent Relay spawned is joined, never resumed beside its headless
+process, as on the Mac ([native-spawn.md](../docs/native-spawn.md#joining-and-taking-over-a-spawned-agent),
+`ui/spawn_join.rs`, `ui/spawn_take_over.rs`): its transcript is followed live
+with a message box under it, and the agents page links to it with
+**Transcript: Join**. A spawned Claude has **Take over in Terminal** in place of
+the open action; it asks first (mid-turn, **Take Over After This Turn**, then
+**Interrupt Now** while it waits), has the core stop the headless agent and
+resumes `claude --resume <id>` in Terminal in its folder. Claude Desktop does
+not take sessions over on Linux. A spawned Codex thread has **Open in Codex**
+only: Terminal resume is not offered while Agent Relay's Codex app server
+hosts it. Any other spawned agent (Grok, OpenCode, Muse, Devin) has no open
+action while Agent Relay runs it; it is joined only, with the note "Agent Relay
+runs this session. Follow it and message it here; it is not resumed in Terminal
+while Agent Relay runs it."
+
+Take-over confirmations remain bound to the original agent when switching
+transcripts. Take-over failures stay with their session until another attempt,
+so returning to a transcript restores its error without showing it on others.
+
+### Session search panel
+
+Open **Search or filter sessions…** or press **⌘F** on macOS / **Ctrl+F** on
+Linux, or press **/** while outside a text field. The search panel groups suggestions under Harnesses, Status, Projects,
+and Upload. Choosing a suggestion completes the current query token and keeps
+earlier words and filters; typed qualifiers and menu choices use the same query.
+Press Return to view results and Escape to close. Use ↑/↓ to navigate suggestions; Tab on macOS or Return on a focused Linux
+option chooses a suggestion. Search covers loaded sessions; scrolling loads older history.
+
+Search suggestions support multiple selections. Click or press Right Arrow to
+toggle an option; selecting it again removes that value. For example,
+`harness:codex harness:claude is:active` shows active sessions from either harness.
+Repeated harness, project, status and upload qualifiers match any selected value;
+different filter types intersect, and exclusions always apply. Existing search
+words stay in the query when selecting a filter.
+
+
+### Workspace sign-in and upload ownership
+
+The avatar menu shows **Switch workspace…** only when Cloud confirms multiple
+workspace memberships. Sign-in opens a workspace selector in the
+browser only when the account has multiple workspaces; a single workspace uses
+the default directly. Desktop credentials remain bound to that choice even when
+the browser switches workspaces.
+Uploads and messages use that one workspace and its key; Settings › Messages
+shows it as **Workspace from your Agent Relay account**.
+
+Signing out stops the collector and removes its credentials, while retaining the
+workspace's sharing choices, pending batches, and acknowledged delivery progress.
+Signing back into that same account and workspace restores its existing job;
+acknowledged history is not replayed. A new workspace starts with selected-only
+sharing. Session discovery lists recent history first without uploading it. When
+automatic uploads are enabled, initial full indexing prioritizes the last 24
+hours, then the rest of the week, then older sessions by latest activity.
+Registrations retained from another relay workspace cannot automatically
+select sessions for the new upload destination. Explicitly sharing a session in
+another workspace remains a separate choice.
+
+Claude's **Open in Claude** handoff is macOS-only in Relay Desktop: Anthropic
+currently supports `claude --desktop --resume` on macOS and x64 Windows, not
+Linux. Linux keeps **Open in Terminal** and **Copy resume command**. A Claude Code
+session a headless process holds (`claude -p`, a structured pipe, an SDK run)
+has no open action on either platform, because Claude Code refuses to resume a
+session something else holds; the note beside it says to run `claude agents`
+to find that process, or stop it.
+
+Selected search filters toggle off individually without removing other query
+terms. The search bar's × tooltip reads "clear search"; the search panel's ×
+closes the panel while preserving the query. Escape also closes the panel.
+
+The session search bar fills the toolbar beside the Table display icon and uses 14px horizontal
+and 9px vertical padding. Filter qualifiers appear as chips with a remove ×,
+including exclusions and date constraints. Removing a chip keeps other filters
+and text, without opening the search panel. Chips scroll horizontally as needed.
+
+**Settings → Opening sessions** provides per-computer **Automatic** and
+**Terminal** preferences for Claude Code and Codex, installation status for the
+Codex handler, Claude setup guidance, and **Check installed apps**. Automatic
+uses the Codex app when a handler is installed and otherwise opens Terminal.
+Claude and Grok use Terminal on Linux. The viewer links to this page through
+**Opening settings**. Historical local sessions do not reliably distinguish
+terminal versus desktop origin; these choices do not guess or rewrite origin.
+
+Local transcript messages show the signed-in person’s avatar beside “You”.
+Consecutive tool calls and results collapse under “N tool calls”; expanding
+the group reveals individually expandable calls and results. Counts include
+only calls, and groups continue across loaded pages until a non-tool entry.
+
+Workspace controls live in the avatar menu. Only an account with more than one
+confirmed workspace shows **Switch workspace…** and a 26-point rounded workspace
+avatar behind the 28-point user avatar, matching Cloud's stacked arrangement.
+Unknown and single-workspace accounts show only the user avatar. Cloud's `whoami`
+response supplies the distinct membership count and current organization avatar;
+the core refreshes that metadata every five minutes without renewing credentials.
+Older Cloud responses safely omit switching until the count is known.
+**Switch workspace…** retains the confirmed sign-out/sign-in flow; it does not
+move uploaded history or silently change accounts. Older sign-ins resolve the display name
+from Cloud independently of Relaycast; until available, the label is “Workspace”
+rather than an internal ID. A name is accepted only for the attached account and workspace.
+
+Click anywhere in the session search bar, including padding, blank space, and
+chip labels, to open search. Only the × controls remove filters or clear the
+query. Chip labels do not remove filters, and scrolling chips does not open search.
+
+Search editing is optimistic: the query, chips and checkmarks update immediately.
+Session results are coalesced after an 80ms pause; obsolete requests are canceled
+and only the latest query is applied. macOS filtering, sorting and grouping run off the UI
+thread against a snapshot; cached groups keep query edits cheap. GTK defers table rendering to a later main-loop turn.
+The previous result list remains visible while the next result set is prepared.
+
+Session controls update immediately: Upload changes serialize only for the same
+session, so other rows remain usable and rapid clicks settle on the last choice.
+Failures roll back that row and show its error; stale listings cannot undo an
+accepted change. The Receives messages orb is gray when offline, yellow while
+registering/connecting, and green only when the session and push channel are live.
+Clicking it toggles message reception; connecting can be cancelled. Tooltips and
+accessible names describe the state/action and explain unavailable controls.
+
+In search suggestions, ↑/↓ move the highlight. Right Arrow selects the highlighted
+filter and keeps it highlighted; Left Arrow removes that filter and keeps the
+highlight. Repeated Right or Left is idempotent. Text editing still uses arrow
+keys normally until suggestion navigation starts. Clicking still toggles a filter.
+
+Opposite search choices replace each other: Active versus Inactive, Not uploading
+versus In progress, and Indexing versus other upload states. Compatible
+choices (such as Codex + Claude or Uploaded + In progress) remain multi-select.
+Choosing a positive value also clears its exact negative qualifier. Manually
+combining opposite positive qualifiers shows a validation error.
+
+On the relay is an independent condition and intersects Active/Inactive, rather
+than broadening the activity filter.
+
+After navigating suggestions with ↑/↓, Return completes and selects the highlighted
+option, then submits and closes search. Its matching trailing fragment is replaced
+by the full qualifier (for example, `clo` → `project:cloud`); earlier words and
+filters remain. Return without suggestion navigation submits the typed text.
+
+Right Arrow completes the highlighted suggestion in place of its matching typed
+fragment, preserving the highlight and keeping search open for more filters.
+
+Keyboard filter selection tracks the highlighted filter across rapid additions
+and removals, even when completing text expands the suggestion list.
+
+Selected search filters show a white checkmark inside a filled blue circle.
+
+Turning Upload off asks **Delete cloud copy?** before changing the switch. Confirming
+removes that machine's uploaded session and its delegated subagents, keeps local
+history, and stops future uploads. Cancel leaves Upload on. A server consent fence
+blocks late batches until Upload is explicitly enabled again; that action starts a
+fresh backfill. Confirmations are scoped to the current account/workspace. Deletion
+errors appear on the affected row, and other rows remain interactive.
+
+The native deletion contract is `uploader.sessions.delete` (the older exclude method
+still only stops delivery). This requires History's session-selection endpoint and
+migration 0037; deploy the History change before releasing these desktop controls.
+No client-side hiding substitutes for successful cloud deletion.
+
+
+### Development session reset
+
+Session reset is a probe CLI operation, not a desktop Settings control.
+Use `agent-relay-probe sessions reset --local` with the install's site, account,
+workspace, and `--confirmation 'RESET LOCAL SESSIONS'` to clear local session
+state and rediscover existing conversations while retaining sign-in and cloud
+history. See the root README's development reset instructions.
+
+The Linux sign-in and app mark use the canonical `assets/agent-relay-mark.svg`
+with the same light-blue front and dark-blue back as macOS.
+
+Search expands over the search bar, centered on its anchor, and dismisses
+when clicking outside. Escape and the close button also dismiss it.
+
+### Session column preferences
+
+Open the **Table display** columns icon to configure the local session table.
+The panel starts with a full-width native **Group by** dropdown with arrow-key
+navigation, Enter to select, and Escape to dismiss. Its list matches the field
+width and has no popover arrow or repeated heading. This is followed by column
+visibility and column order. Drag a
+handle to move the full row, or use the up/down buttons. Dragging shows the
+destination with a gap on macOS and an insertion line on GTK. Rows have a
+consistent 40px height and 6px spacing. Canceling a drag preserves the order. Changes apply immediately
+and persist on this machine. **Done** uses the compact brand-blue primary button;
+**Reset to default** restores Session, Status, Project,
+Updated, Messages, and Upload. Harness, Directory, Session ID, Model, Reasoning, and Created
+are optional. At least one column stays visible. Headers and rows
+scroll horizontally together when the chosen columns need more space. Drag a header’s
+trailing divider to resize its column; body cells have no resize handles. All
+headers support sorting and share a 36-point row height so dividers align. Widths
+preview live and save on release, survive hiding and reordering, and reset with
+**Reset to default**. Double-click a divider to reset just that column. Escape
+cancels a drag; keyboard/accessibility adjustments are available on the divider.
+Sessions can be hidden from their row menu or the selection toolbar. Hiding takes
+an active session off the relay, then excludes it from future uploads while
+preserving its existing cloud copy. Hidden sessions are omitted by default;
+**Show hidden** in table settings reveals them with muted rows and disabled
+relay/upload controls, including in the transcript sidebar. Visibility and the
+checkbox persist on this machine. Unhide restores visibility without restarting
+sharing. A failed sharing shutdown returns the session to the table with an error.
+
+The Session column fills spare table width, including after reordering (the last visible
+column fills it when Session is hidden). The default window is 1280 × 800, with
+420-point Session, 100-point Status, 160-point Project, 120-point Updated,
+126-point Messages, and 100-point Upload columns. Reset restores these widths
+and the default window size (except in full screen). Messages and Upload are centered;
+wider layouts scroll horizontally. Harness and Model sort alphabetically, and
+Reasoning sorts by effort from none through ultra; missing metadata stays last.
+Hovering a sortable header shows the direction its next click will use. Moving
+away restores the current sort arrow (or hides it for an unsorted column). Hiding
+Upload or Messages does not change either setting on a session.
+
+Created and Updated show relative times (including “Just now”) and reveal the exact
+UTC date and time, including seconds, on hover. Every column supports sorting;
+Created defaults to newest first, Status uses the displayed activity state, and
+Directory and Session ID sort alphabetically. Created uses the first recorded
+session activity; missing metadata reads “—”. Harness includes its logo, and Upload stacks its status
+icon above its label. Messages uses labeled controls: Off, Connecting…,
+Receiving, Offline, and Turning off…, each with a state icon.
+
+Hovering anywhere on a session row highlights the entire row. Clicking its text,
+harness logo, or gaps opens the session; the checkbox and surrounding leading
+padding select it instead. Message controls keep their own click behavior.
+
+Session rows have a left selection checkbox and harness logo, then the title and known model · harness · reasoning details. Status is separate from the read-only Upload column. Selected rows are highlighted. Selecting sessions reveals the top bulk action bar with Messaging and Upload switches, followed by Hide with an eye-slash icon. Mixed on/off selections display as off; switching on enables the selected sessions, and switching off disables them. Turning uploads off retains the cloud-copy deletion confirmation.
+
+Search expands from and collapses into its toolbar anchor with a 200 ms eased
+transition. Reduced-motion preferences skip the animated close.
+
+The compact header brand has no hover highlight or pointing-hand cursor. The search border is muted while closed. Account avatars are centered with padding, including single-workspace accounts. Available updates appear as an icon-only download button beside the upload status, without an update dot on the avatar.
+
+The local session count appears beside the bottom-left status. When problems are present, click Needs attention to open Diagnostics with full, selectable and copyable error details. Distinct session and connection problems are collected together.
+
+
+A discovered session awaiting an upload-catalog entry is labeled **Indexing**
+in the list, sidebar, and upload filter. Missing catalog data alone does not
+prove uploads are unavailable. Upload selection waits for the catalog entry;
+known upload errors keep their specific explanation. Opening a session
+excluded by Reset all sessions explains the reset and directs the person to
+the source app, without recreating Relay’s cleared reader cache.
+
+Each session group header has a checkbox that selects or deselects only the matching rows in that group, including when the group is collapsed. Other groups keep their selections. A partially selected group displays unchecked; clicking it selects the whole group.
+
+### Request diagnostics
+
+Settings → Diagnostics fills the available content width and shows recent Relaycast and Cloud requests from the background service, newest first, with request and response details, timestamps, duration, and a Failures only filter. Click anywhere on a request header to expand or collapse its details. The bottom-left dot and status text show overall app status: green when uploads are up to date with no problems, orange when a request fails or another problem needs attention. Clicking a request failure opens and highlights the exact entry in Diagnostics; it stays available when older requests roll out of the log. Viewed request failures do not notify again. Other current problems appear in Diagnostics with selectable, copyable details. Copy details briefly changes to Copied when the problem text is copied.
+
+If the background service exits unexpectedly, the app shows **Reconnecting** while systemd starts the replacement, or while the app restarts its hosted core when the service was not enabled. Read-only requests interrupted by the exit wait up to five seconds and run again against the replacement. Changes are never sent again automatically, because the old service may have completed them before the connection closed; the app asks the person to check the result before trying again. A change the app could not send at all, because no connection to the service opened, is different: its message says the app is reconnecting or starting, and it clears once the service answers; Retry uploads and Compact now, which are safe to repeat, are then sent once on their own. A service that stays unavailable shows a recovery action. Once the new snapshot arrives, a transient read error no longer keeps the status orange.
+
+The log lives only in memory for the current service run (up to 250 entries; large responses and bridge snapshots are bounded). Credentials and message content are redacted. Relaycast SDK rows contain decoded results or final error details, including HTTP status, request ID, and retry count where available. Successful HTTP statuses and individual SDK retry responses are not exposed by the SDK. Cloud rows include the actual HTTP status. Calls made with a Relay Connect room's credential are labeled Relay Connect instead of Agent Relay, because they use that room's workspace and its limits, not the team's. The log covers the core's Relaycast calls and Cloud HTTP transport, not WebSocket frames or separate upload transports.
+
+Session lists use the daemon's shared snapshot: reopening the app reads cached
+rows immediately while live-agent discovery and upload enrichment run in separate
+background tasks. A cold daemon seeds rows from the collector's persisted catalog;
+global upload status and history requests run independently in both desktop apps.
+
+User-facing messages, help text, and diagnostic service labels use **Agent Relay**.
+Relaycast remains an internal provider identifier.
+
+After browser authentication, the welcome screen offers **Choose your workspace** for accounts with multiple workspaces, matching macOS. A single workspace continues automatically. Cancel leaves setup unconnected.
+
+### Saved session views
+
+A single bookmark button sits beside the search box and opens
+**Saved views**. The bookmark, table settings, and account controls use compact
+6-point gaps while retaining their existing hit areas. Its bookmark is filled whenever the current search and table
+configuration matches a saved view; changing those settings returns it to an
+outline. Choose **Save current view** in the dropdown, give it a unique name,
+and optionally choose **Make default**. Select a saved name to restore it, use
+the star to change the default, or the × to delete the view. Deleting a view leaves
+the current table unchanged;
+deleting its default removes the startup override. Views are local to this machine.
+
+A view preserves the search text, grouping, sort direction and column, column
+order/visibility/widths, and **Show hidden**. Date filters preserve their explicit
+dates; saving a date range does not turn it into a rolling window. The default
+loads at app startup. All controls have accessible names and keyboard focus;
+Enter saves from the name field and Escape dismisses the popover. Delete remains
+available without hover, with stronger emphasis on hover or keyboard focus.
+
+Primary blue actions use the canonical Agent Relay button, including Save current
+view, Save, Done, sign-in, settings, and upgrade. Both themes use brand blue
+`#2d6a9c`, white text, a `#234969` border, and 10/10/10/3 corners (the tight corner
+is bottom-left). Hover darkens to `#26557e` to keep white text accessible.
+There is no shadow or glow. Keyboard focus and disabled states remain visible.
+Use `AgentRelayPrimaryButtonStyle` on macOS and the `primary` class on GTK;
+workspace accent colors are separate and must not define button fills.
+
+### Usage diagnostics
+
+macOS, Linux and Windows share explicit PostHog usage events through the relay core.
+Agent registration/removal, message sending and initial transcript reads record
+attempts and outcomes in shared handlers. The UI records page/settings-pane
+navigation, opening the message composer, browser opening, and debounced
+session/agent/team searches. Search queries, names, recipients, session IDs and
+message contents are never sent. Session selection counts and sharing modes
+accompany their operations; deletion has its own operation. Observed upload
+completion counts exclude startup history and repeated polls. Update events
+report installation handoff; Linux `.deb` downloads require manual installation.
+Background transcript following is excluded from open counts, even without a
+cursor. Awaited update diagnostics wait at most three seconds per call; GTK
+keeps the window responsive during that wait.
+Settings → Share diagnostics controls all of these events. See README's
+Desktop analytics and error tracking section for the complete schema and limits.
+
+Spawned Grok agents can reply through the relay-send socket without a separate
+MCP setup. The core verifies the caller's exact recorded leader, session claim,
+process ancestry and private marker before identifying the sender.
+
+### Relay agent names
+
+
+New relay registrations use `harness-repo-task`, with up to two meaningful
+words from the session title (for example `claude-cloud-plan-support`). Names
+are chosen locally; filler words are skipped. A missing task title uses
+`session`. Duplicate automatic names get `-2`, `-3`, and so on. Existing
+registrations retain their names as titles change; explicitly chosen names
+are respected. This behavior is shared by macOS, Linux and headless mode.
+
+### Codex CLI discovery
+
+Codex terminal message delivery resolves npm CLI launchers to their bundled native
+executables, so the desktop or background service does not require Node on its
+PATH. Nested and hoisted platform packages and legacy vendor layouts are supported.
+
+Native session titles are published as `session_title` roster metadata, refreshed after
+renames and when existing registrations reconnect. A published objective keeps priority.
+OpenClaw and Hermes gateway registrations identify an agent rather than one conversation;
+their `session_scope: "agent"` prevents a misleading History summary link. Their relay
+addresses and message delivery are unchanged.
+
+For this first experimental candidate, first enable **Accept spawns from Agent
+Relay** in Settings and wait for the computer to be claimed by your signed-in
+account. Mobile Claude continuation uses that existing ownership proof. Enabling
+continuation before the claim is ready is refused before any plugin or setting
+change; a peer message cannot establish the claim.
+
+After your first mobile message, replies stay synced to your phone, including
+replies to later messages you type in that same desktop conversation. They stay
+bound to the verified owner and current control generation. Before mobile
+engagement, desktop replies are not forwarded. Permission prompts for turns you
+start on the desktop continue to use Claude's native desktop prompt.
+
+Claude opens the private Unix socket through its native HTTP API. The core
+requires the exact registered Claude process; tool subprocesses cannot use this
+native-input bridge. Windows displays the option but keeps it disabled until
+Claude's native named-pipe transport is verified; there is no subprocess fallback.

+#      verifies it against the release's .sha256. The checksum proves the
+#      download is the published file, not who published it: Linux releases
+#      carry no signature yet.
+#   3. Unpacks into versions/<version>, checks the binary reports that
+#      version, and points `current` at it atomically. The previous version
+#      stays for rollback; older ones beyond KEEP are removed.
+#   4. Writes the user unit (only when it is missing or names another
+#      binary), reloads systemd, and restarts the service (or enables and
+#      starts it on a first install). Agents the core spawned run in scopes of
+#      their own and keep running through the restart.
+#   5. Waits for the new core to answer with the new version; if it does not,
+#      points `current` back at the previous version and restarts again.
+#
+# Never touched: settings, sign-in and agent registrations, which live in the
+# core's data directory ($XDG_DATA_HOME/com.agentrelay.desktop), not here.
+# Never done: anything needing root (the .deb), enabling lingering, or
+# changing credentials; it says what to run instead.

+# Agent Relay for macOS (`macos/`)
+
+The native window and menu-bar app: a thin SwiftUI client of the relay core
+(`agent-relay-probe relay serve`, [`docs/relay-core.md`](../docs/relay-core.md)).
+The core owns sign-in, the uploader, agents, delivery and every Relaycast and
+Cloud call; launchd runs it as a LaunchAgent the app registers. The app renders
+the core's snapshot, re-fetches what it invalidates, sends it commands, and
+keeps what only a Mac app can do: windows and the menu bar, the clipboard,
+opening the browser on a sign-in link, notifications, launch at login, and
+self-update.

+                                an in-process fake of the core's socket
+```
+
+## Running it locally
+
+`swift run` has no bundle and so no LaunchAgent; start a core on the default
+socket in one terminal and the app in another, both from the repository root:
+
+```sh
+cargo run --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml -- relay serve   # terminal 1
+swift run --package-path macos RelayDesktop                  # terminal 2
+```
+
+- Closing the window keeps the menu-bar app; quitting the app leaves the core
+  running.
+- Agent Relay Dev never opens the app at login: Settings hides the toggle, and
+  launching it removes a login item it registered earlier. Its core's
+  LaunchAgent does run at login; **Settings › Background service › Stop and
+  Quit** removes it.
+- Launch at login and the LaunchAgent need a signed `.app` bundle
+  (`scripts/build-app.sh`, ad-hoc is enough locally).
+- Production builds register the LaunchAgent only from `/Applications` or
+  `~/Applications`. Launching a copy on a mounted DMG can leave BTM pointing
+  at the ejected volume; move the app first.
+- If macOS loses the bundled agent's container path and launchd reports
+  `spawn failed` with exit 78 for `Contents/Helpers/...`, the app switches to
+  `~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.agentrelay.desktop.core.local.plist`, whose
+  `Program` is the helper's absolute path. It is reloaded after app updates
+  and removed when Background service is stopped.
+- App logs: `log stream --predicate 'subsystem == "com.agentrelay.desktop"'`.
+  Core diagnostics: `~/Library/Logs/Agent Relay/core.log` (Agent Relay Dev
+  uses `~/Library/Logs/Agent Relay Dev/core.log`). These credential-redacted
+  diagnostics include Connect failures, even under the bundled or fallback
+  LaunchAgent. The core rotates at 1 MiB and keeps `core.log.1` through
+  `core.log.3`; a record may exceed the cap by at most its bounded line size.
+  Logging failures do not prevent the core from starting or serving requests.
+  Raw child stdout/stderr and request or message bodies are not captured.
+  Live core state: `agent-relay-probe relay call status.get --json`.
+
+Tests never start a core, broker or harness:
+
+```sh
+cd macos
+swift test
+```
+
+For end-to-end development, point a compatible local Agent Relay service stack
+at this checkout with `DEV_DESKTOP_DIR`. Agent Relay Dev uses its own bundle ID,
+socket (`~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.dev.sock`) and data directory
+(`~/Library/Application Support/com.agentrelay.desktop.dev`), leaving production
+connections untouched.
+
+## How the bundle is assembled
+
+`scripts/build-app.sh` (in the repository root) does the assembly:
+
+1. `swift build -c release --arch arm64|x86_64` in `macos/`
+2. copies `RelayDesktop` to `Agent Relay.app/Contents/MacOS/`
+3. copies the core for that architecture to `Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper`
+   (`agent-relay-probe` under the name Activity Monitor shows; its signature
+   keeps the identifier `agent-relay-probe`), and once it is signed hard-links
+   it as `Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper (Sessions)`, the name the core
+   starts its session collector (`run`) under
+   (0755) with `Contents/Resources/agent-relay-probe.sha256` and
+   `Contents/Resources/probe-version.txt`
+4. writes the core's LaunchAgent to
+   `Contents/Library/LaunchAgents/com.agentrelay.desktop.core.plist`
+   (`BundleProgram` the helper, `relay serve`, `RunAtLoad`, `KeepAlive`)
+5. renders `Contents/Resources/AppIcon.icns` and fills in `Contents/Info.plist`
+6. signs with the hardened runtime using `RelayDesktop.entitlements`, or ad-hoc
+   when no signing identity is configured.
+
+`--debug` builds the debug configuration instead and signs with the keychain's
+Apple Development identity when there is one (ad-hoc otherwise), so Keychain
+access survives rebuilds; it never uses Developer ID credentials.
+`scripts/dev-reload.sh` rebuilds such a bundle in place: it replaces the
+executable and resource bundles and re-signs with the bundle's existing
+identity. The core's binary and LaunchAgent stay as built.

+# Agent Relay probe
+
+This crate builds `agent-relay-probe`, the daemon the desktop apps bundle and
+drive; see [the probe guide](../docs/agent-relay-probe.md) for its commands,
+state and verification, and [the desktop plan](../docs/plan.md) section 3 for
+the JSON bridge. It reads local history through the published `ai-hist` crate's
+embedder API, `SessionStore`: capture sweeps, live capture (`watch`, with
+the crate's `fs-events` feature), targeted hydration, shallow inventory and
+catalog reads, each stopped by the probe's own stop request and
+reporting content-free progress, and the change feed its uploads are prepared
+from.
+
+Build with `cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --release --locked`.
+
+| Module | Owns |
+|---|---|
+| `src/probe/` | The binary: bridge commands, the collector's delivery loop, `live` (its capture thread: filesystem-event driven capture, or member-scoped hydration in selected mode), progress, and `history`, its one path into `SessionStore` |
+| `cloud` | Agent Relay Cloud sign-in, the workspace RelayHistory session exchange, stage-scoped `rth_*` auth files and token refresh |
+| `delivery` | The upload queue over `ai-hist`'s change feed: jobs, sharing exclusions, selected-session membership and backfill, immutable batches, leases, retries and acknowledgment, and the one-time rebuild of an install that uploaded from the former export journal |
+| `delivery::worker` | The bounded drain the collector runs each pass |
+| `destination` | `RelayHistoryReceiver`, the worker's receiver for RelayHistory: mapping, the consent and destination guards, and transport |
+| `migration` | The legacy scheduler guard |
+| `relay` | The relay core daemon (`relay serve`) and its bridge; see [the relay core](../docs/relay-core.md) |
+
+## Durable protocol transport
+
+The expected account assertion is `relayhistory:` plus the SHA-256 of UTF-8
+JSON `[orgId, workspaceId ?? ""]`. The server compares the immutable batch
+account assertion to authenticated tenancy before writing; cache labels cannot
+grant authority.
+
+`RelayHistoryReceiver::prepare` maps a batch to the body for mapping version
+`relayhistory-delivery-v1`, which the worker persists before transport.
+`RelayHistoryReceiver::send` checks the persisted body's hash and mapping and
+sends it to `/v1/delivery/batches`; authentication headers may rotate. A body
+this build prepared (`PreparedPayload::prepared_by` is `delivery::THIS_BUILD`)
+is sent unchanged; any other body is first repaired into wire form. Both first apply the legacy scheduler guard below, and both recheck
+the receiver's configured assertions: `expected_account` (refused as
+`PermissionDenied` when it differs from the batch account) and `instance_id`
+(refused as `MappingVersionMismatch` when it differs from the batch
+generation). An unset assertion is not checked. The worker validates its lease
+and eligibility immediately before calling `send` and records the exact
+acknowledgment it returns.
+
+The receiver may send from several threads at once
+(`Receiver::concurrent`), so the worker keeps up to
+`DrainOptions::max_in_flight` batches of an all-sources job in flight; the
+collector uses four (`DELIVERY_CONCURRENCY`). The draining thread prepares,
+claims, maps, persists and validates each batch and hands it straight to an
+idle sender thread, so validation still immediately precedes `send`; it
+records every outcome itself. The batches of one window are claimed oldest
+first under one job lease, which one keepalive renews while any of them is in
+flight and which is released with the last of them. A failure stops further
+claims until its retry deadline, with the usual backoff and `retry_after`; the
+batches already in flight finish and are recorded, and a sibling's
+acknowledgment never clears that failure or its backoff; nor does an
+acknowledgment arriving while an older batch is still in flight, so a batch
+that keeps failing backs off further each time. A blocking verdict
+blocks the job, and the outcomes of the batches sent beside it are still
+recorded. The job's `acknowledged_cursor` is the end of the longest run of
+acknowledged batches with no unresolved batch before it: if batch k fails
+while k+1 is acknowledged, the position stays before k, k+1 stays delivered
+(it is not sent again, and its receipt is kept while it ends past k's feed
+end), and k alone is retried. A selected-sessions job holds a window too. Its
+member backfill batches share the job's feed end, so the position passes that
+end only once every batch ending there has resolved, and an acknowledged
+receipt ending at the same place as an unresolved batch may be released,
+since that batch carries the end itself. The receiver is idempotent per batch id and revision, so a batch
+re-sent after an uncertain outcome is safe, and a newer revision that arrives
+before an older one is kept.
+
+Every receiver in the process shares one HTTP agent, so consecutive batches
+reuse a kept-alive connection rather than paying a TCP and TLS handshake each;
+it keeps an idle connection for every batch a drain may have in flight
+(`worker::MAX_IN_FLIGHT`, 16), and a pooled connection the server has closed
+is replaced before use. A receiver
+keeps the stage session its last successful send used and reads the auth store
+again only when it has none, when its access token is within a minute of its
+stored expiry (or has no stored expiry), or after a failed send. A 401 always
+takes the shared locked reload-and-refresh path, so a token another process
+rotated is picked up there. The account assertion is checked against whichever
+session is sent.
+
+Failures are `Transient`, `RateLimited`, `AuthenticationRequired`,
+`PermissionDenied`, `InvalidPayload`, `UnsupportedEvidence` or
+`MappingVersionMismatch`. Only transient and rate-limit failures retry
+automatically, after 1 s doubled per consecutive attempt plus up to a fifth of
+jitter: a transient failure's wait stops growing at five minutes
+(`TRANSIENT_BACKOFF_CEILING_MS`), so a receiver that recovers from a long
+outage is tried again within six, and a rate limit's at an hour, with a later
+`retry_after` still standing. An explicit retry (`retry`, the app's **Retry**)
+also ends a transient wait early; it leaves a rate-limited wait alone. HTTP 404 blocks rather than falling back to another protocol.
+Batches hold at most 100 records, the protocol default, until a receipt
+publishes the server's limits (`limits: {maxRecords, maxRequestBytes}`):
+`maxRecords` then sizes the batches prepared next, up to 500
+(`MAX_PUBLISHED_BATCH_RECORDS`), with the scan budget raised to four feed
+changes per record so the larger cap can be filled, and `maxRequestBytes` can only lower the
+byte cap. A receipt without `limits`, from an older server, returns the cap to
+100, so no batch is prepared larger than the last limit the server published.
+The limits are kept for the collector process, not on disk. A batch is
+immutable once prepared and is sent as prepared: the receiver maps batches of
+up to 500 records, so one prepared under a raised limit before a restart is
+still mapped, and a server that accepts fewer answers 400, which record
+isolation splits into halves. Request bodies are capped at 2 MiB, the
+server's request limit; HTTP deadlines come from the worker's budget on every
+request; redirects are disabled.
+
+The JSON fixture in `tests/fixtures/delivery-native-v1.json` is shared with the
+companion server tests.
+
+### Legacy scheduler migration guard
+
+`migration::status` returns `{state:"clear"|"active"|"unknown",jobs:string[]}`.
+Job labels are fixed safe names; scheduler commands, credentials, and history
+are never returned. On macOS it checks both
+`~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.ai-hist.push.plist` and the loaded
+`com.ai-hist.push` launchd label. On macOS/Linux it checks uncommented user cron
+entries bearing `# ai-hist push (managed)`. An unloaded plist still blocks
+because it can restart at login. Command failures, timeouts, and oversized
+output produce `unknown`; positive evidence takes precedence as `active`. Each
+scheduler command has a two-second deadline and a 1 MiB output cap.
+
+A receiver inspects at most once every 60 seconds
+(`destination::SCHEDULER_GUARD_TTL`) and applies that verdict to every batch it
+prepares or sends meanwhile. The collector keeps one receiver state for the
+process, and the check it runs directly before each delivery pass, which names
+the cause for the user, uses that same verdict, so back-to-back passes inspect
+at most once a minute between them. Delivery setup inspects directly. A legacy
+uploader installed while the collector runs is therefore noticed within 60
+seconds rather than before the next batch.
+
+`active` always blocks delivery. `unknown` requires the user's explicit
+acknowledgment that inspection was unavailable and they have checked or stopped
+legacy scheduling; that acknowledgment is never reported as a successful
+inspection. Platforms other than macOS/Linux return `clear` with
+`legacy-installer-unsupported` because the old automatic installer never
+supported them.
+
+The guard never stops a service, changes scheduler files, reads auth, or
+migrates watermarks. Arbitrarily named schedules cannot be discovered by it and
+must be stopped by their owner. A status check cannot revoke a request that
+another process has already sent.

+`hicolor/scalable/apps/agent-relay.svg` is the mark (a copy of

+builds from a checkout: `ui/mod.rs` adds this folder to GTK's icon search path
+when no installed icon theme has `agent-relay`, so the taskbar shows the Agent
+Relay mark instead of GTK's own icon. It has to be a themed icon: GTK builds a
+window's icon list from the sizes the theme reports, and an unthemed icon
+reports none. Packaged trees ship the icon under `share/icons/hicolor`;
+`scripts/build-windows.sh` does not copy this folder.

+//! `agent-relay-desktop`, the Linux and Windows app.
+//!
+//! `--headless` runs the relay core itself (`agent-relay-probe relay serve
+//! --headless`), as the systemd user unit or the Windows logon task does.
+//! `--install-launcher` lists a per-user install in the desktop's app
+//! launcher (the Start menu on Windows) and exits. Anything else opens the
+//! window (built with the `gtk` feature); `--background` starts it in the
+//! tray, and `agentrelay://` links open in it.
+//!
+//! On Windows this is a GUI program, so opening the app shows no console.
+//! `--headless` started from a terminal attaches to that terminal's console
+//! for its output and Ctrl+C, but the terminal does not wait for a GUI
+//! program: run `agent-relay-probe.exe relay serve --headless` (or `start
+//! /wait agent-relay-desktop --headless`) to keep the prompt until the core ends.

+//! Probe-owned upload jobs and durable delivery state.
+//!
+//! Records come from `ai-hist`'s change feed. A job's position is a feed
+//! revision: an all-sources job drains every change of its kinds from the
+//! feed's start, which is its bootstrap, and then follows the feed from where
+//! it stopped. A selected-sessions job follows the feed for its members only,
+//! and each member added to it is backfilled with a drain of that session from
+//! the feed's start to the head at the time it was added. Nothing is copied
+//! out of the evidence tables until a batch is prepared from them.
+//!
+//! A job's unresolved batches are immutable; their records and optional
+//! destination bodies survive crashes. A worker delivering one batch at a time
+//! keeps at most one; a pipelined worker keeps up to its window, each covering
+//! the next stretch of the feed, and claims them oldest first under one job
+//! lease. The job's acknowledged position only moves through a contiguous run
+//! of acknowledged batches, so a batch that failed holds it back while later
+//! ones that were acknowledged stay delivered. Batches are claimed by their
+//! feed end (`journal_end`), then by preparation order; a session job's backfill batches share one
+//! end, and the position passes an end only once every batch ending there has
+//! resolved. Acknowledgment requires every revision
+//! and a durable remote acceptance level. Delivery is at least once; receiver
+//! idempotency and stale-revision rejection are necessary to prevent duplicate
+//! effects after uncertain outcomes. Consent — the job's kinds, its members
+//! and `delivery_exclusions` — is checked when a batch is prepared and again
+//! when it is claimed and dispatched. Deletes are sent as tombstones. Pausing
+//! preserves the job's position; cancellation is an explicit discard.
+//!
+//! A record's revision is the feed revision plus this origin's
+//! `revision_base`, which keeps every revision above the highest this origin
+//! has sent, including across a replaced database.

+/// `claim_batch` bumps `fence` and rewrites `worker_id` on every claim, so a
+/// takeover is always visible as a fence or worker mismatch; the job state and
+/// the batch's `leased` state close the rest. That is *ownership*, and it is
+/// all a write made **after** transport needs: `acknowledge` and
+/// `record_failure` report an outcome that already happened, and refusing

+/// send. It only loses the record of it — before this distinction, "the claim
+/// is gone" meant a drain whose 100 ms lease lapsed while its receiver
+/// panicked could not even record the resulting transient failure: the write
+/// was refused with "lease expired or was fenced" when nothing had been
+/// fenced, the retry backoff was never applied, and a clean retryable outcome
+/// was escalated into a job-level state error.
+///
+/// A write made **before** transport is different. The fence proves nobody
+/// else held the batch when the check ran, but that proof expires with the
+/// transaction: `validate_dispatch` commits and only then does the receiver
+/// send, and an expired lease that was still unclaimed at validation is
+/// claimable by another worker in that gap, so both would send. The
+/// pre-transport gates therefore also require the lease to be live —
+/// `lease_until_ms > now` — which is the promise that no other worker can
+/// claim until the send is past the point of `claim_batch` letting them.
+///
+/// Renewal is [`Owned`](LeaseCheck::Owned) on purpose: a keepalive that was
+/// blocked past the deadline finds its lease expired but, by the fence,
+/// unclaimed, and renewing it inside one write transaction makes it live
+/// again before any other worker can act on the expiry. Refusing that would
+/// turn a slow lock into a lost batch. Every caller runs the check inside the

+//! Normalized, incremental session membership. The job follows the feed for
+//! its members; each member added is backfilled with a drain of its own
+//! session from the feed's start to the head at the time it was added. The
+//! destination job still owns batches, fences and leases.
+//!
+//! A member row's `cutoff` is that head, `cursor` the backfill's position and
+//! `bootstrap_done` whether the backfill has reached `cutoff`. A relationship
+//! is stored under its parent, so a member's backfill has two phases: its own
+//! session, then (when the job selects relationships) the edges that name it
+//! as their child, which a parent included earlier could not send. The job's own
+//! `journal_cursor` follows the feed for every member above its `cutoff`.
+//!
+//! Each feed change has at most one path that sends it under one membership:
+//! a member's own-changes phase up to its cutoff, the child's incoming-edges
+//! phase for an edge [`sender`] gives the child, or the feed above every
+//! cutoff it names. Every path's position advances in the same transaction
+//! that stores the batch holding what it passed, so a job may hold a window
+//! of unresolved batches and none of them repeats a change another holds.
+//! A membership change moves those paths while earlier batches are still
+//! unresolved; until they resolve, a preparation skips every revision they
+//! hold. `membership_seq` is the job's highest batch `seq` at the last such
+//! change, and a batch at or before it in claim order holds records prepared
+//! under an earlier membership.

+//! The single generic delivery worker: one bounded drain loop, implemented once.
+//!
+//! Every host (Node through NAPI, the CLI, a plugin, the probe) supplies only a
+//! [`Receiver`] — a destination mapping and transport — and this module owns the
+//! durable protocol: round-robin over jobs, claimed batches (one at a time, or
+//! a bounded window of them for a receiver that sends concurrently), payload
+//! persistence before transport, an eligibility recheck immediately before the
+//! send, lease keepalive while a receiver runs, and acknowledgment or a
+//! classified failure afterwards. No network, credential or environment access
+//! happens here; receivers never see this module's database connections.
+//!
+//! A drain is bounded: it attempts at most `max_batches` batches, starts no
+//! further step once `max_elapsed` has passed, never waits for a retry deadline
+//! and never enables, pauses or resumes a job. Delivery stays at least once, so
+//! receivers must remain idempotent per revision.
+//!
+//! The core cannot forcibly interrupt a receiver: Rust has no way to cancel a
+//! synchronous call. [`ReceiverContext::timeout_ms`] is the deadline a receiver
+//! is required to honour itself (socket/read timeouts), and
+//! [`ReceiverContext::cancelled`] reports a host stop request or a lost lease so
+//! a long-running receiver can abandon its work early. A receiver that ignores
+//! both merely delays this drain; its result is still discarded when the lease
+//! was lost, and nothing is acknowledged.

+//! The Windows install tree, and the per-user registry entries the app
+//! keeps.
+//!
+//! A tree is an MSYS2 prefix: the app, its core and the GTK runtime it
+//! links share `bin\`, so Windows finds the DLLs beside the programs.
+//!
+//! | Path | Is |
+//! |---|---|
+//! | [`APP`] `bin\agent-relay-desktop.exe` | The app |
+//! | [`PROBE`] `bin\agent-relay-probe.exe` | The relay core |
+//! | `bin\*.dll`, `bin\gdbus.exe` | The GTK 4 runtime, and the session bus GApplication uses to stay one instance |
+//! | [`LIB`] `lib\` | GTK's modules: `gdk-pixbuf-2.0\2.10.0\loaders` (with the SVG loader) and `loaders.cache` |
+//! | [`SHARE`] `share\` | `glib-2.0\schemas` (compiled), `icons\` (Adwaita, hicolor) |
+//!
+//! A release publishes the tree as `AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>.zip`
+//! (`arch` is `x64` or `arm64`) holding one folder, [`tree_name`], with its
+//! `.zip.sha256` beside it. A per-user install unpacks it at
+//! `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\<tree>`, as the release's
+//! `AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe` installs it.

+//!
+//! | Module | Owns |
+//! |---|---|
+//! | `app` | The application: lifecycle, core events, sign-in, links, the tray's actions, dialogs |
+//! | `state` | What the window shows, as data: the screen, navigation, the core's answers |
+//! | `shell` | The rail, sidebar, top bar and status bar |
+//! | `relay` | The listings every surface shares, and switching sessions on the relay |
+//! | `settings_page` | Every Settings pane and the background service |
+//! | `usage` | Desktop usage events and search debouncing |
+//! | `update_actions` | Checking, downloading, installing, and reporting software updates |
+//! | `pages` | The four pages' roots in the page stack, and what they keep across redraws |
+//! | `agents_page` | My agents: sessions and their relay switch, details and tools, fleet workers, agents on other machines; the roster rows, overview card and banners Team reuses |
+//! | `capy_spawn` | Cloud-backed Capy thread creation and first-turn binding status |
+//! | `sessions_page` | My sessions: upload stages, the sessions list, uploading and stopping |
+//! | `transcript` | Local conversation reader with Markdown, code, and expandable tool activity |
+//! | `spawn_join` | A spawned agent's live transcript and message box, and opening its session |
+//! | `spawn_take_over` | Taking a spawned Claude over: stopping it headless and resuming it in Terminal |
+//! | `team_page` | Team: a card per teammate with their agents on the relay |
+//! | `messages` | Messages: conversations, delivery and reply notes; Recent Messages |
+//! | `widgets` | Shared rows, banners, settings rows, avatars, marks and dots |
+//! | `theme` | The light and dark palettes and following the desktop's color scheme |
+//! | `tray` | The tray menu, served as a StatusNotifierItem (a notification-area icon on Windows) |
+//! | `desktop` | Links, notifications, dialogs and quitting |
+//!
+//! # Threads
+//!
+//! GTK owns the process's main thread, and every widget and the app's
+//! [`state::State`] live there, in one `Rc<RefCell<..>>` no other thread
+//! touches. The bridge and the tray run on a tokio runtime's worker threads.
+//! A call is spawned on that runtime and its `JoinHandle` awaited by a
+//! future on the GLib main context (`glib::spawn_future_local`); the
+//! bridge's event receiver and the tray's action receiver are drained the
+//! same way. tokio's handles and channels need no tokio context to be
+//! awaited, so the main loop polls them directly. Blocking work
+//! (`systemctl`, update downloads, avatars) runs on GLib's blocking pool
+//! (`gio::spawn_blocking`) and is awaited the same way. Answers therefore
+//! always land on the main thread, between GTK events.

+//! The tray: the Mac's menu-bar panel as a StatusNotifierItem menu.
+//!
+//! [`menu`] decides what the menu holds from the window's [`State`]; a
+//! [`Tray`] shows it. On Linux that is `ksni`, which serves the item over
+//! D-Bus from the tokio runtime and sends the person's choices back as
+//! [`TrayAction`]s; on Windows it is a notification-area icon
+//! (`tray/windows.rs`); elsewhere (macOS builds that run the tests) nothing
+//! is shown.

+//! The tray on Windows: a notification-area icon (`tray-icon`, which wraps
+//! `Shell_NotifyIcon`) with the shared [`menu`](super::menu) as its context
+//! menu.
+//!
+//! `tray-icon` keeps a hidden window on the thread that creates it and
+//! needs that thread's message loop. GTK's Windows backend runs one on the
+//! main thread, dispatching every message there, so the icon is made on
+//! the main thread once the application started. Clicks arrive in the
+//! window procedure, on the main thread too; they are sent on as
+//! [`TrayAction`]s over the same channel the app drains for every tray.

+//! Software updates: the Linux counterpart of the Mac's `AppUpdate`.
+//!
+//! Both apps read the same public GitHub release. A per-user install (the
+//! checksum-verified tarball under `~/.local/lib/agent-relay/<version>`)
+//! updates itself the same way the setup skill installs it: download, verify
+//! the published SHA-256, unpack beside the running version, point the
+//! systemd user unit at it and restart the unit if it is running. A `.deb` install needs the system
+//! package manager, so the app offers the verified package instead of
+//! installing it.
+//!
+//! On Windows (`updates/windows.rs`) a per-user install under
+//! `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>` updates itself from the
+//! same release's verified `.zip`, points the logon task at the new version
+//! and restarts it if it is running; its "launcher entry" is a Start menu
+//! shortcut and the `agentrelay://` link handler.
+//!
+//! The network, the environment and the programs run are reached through a
+//! [`Host`], so tests use fakes for all three.

+//! One pass, once per install, that carries the desktop's choices from
+//! OpenClaw's old session IDs to its conversations.
+//!
+//! relayhistory 0.49 records one OpenClaw session per conversation key
+//! instead of one per transcript window (every heartbeat or cron run opened a
+//! window). The old window IDs (`<agent>:<window session id>`) retire on the
+//! next sweep; each conversation keeps a `session:<window session id>` marker
+//! per window. A conversation inherits the choices made about its windows:
+//! selected, excluded or deleted from the cloud.
+//!
+//! Choices are added, never moved. The old IDs keep their membership and
+//! their absence of exclusion, so the deletion records their retirement emits
+//! still pass consent and remove the old copies from the cloud. Hydration
+//! passes over them (see [`hydratable`]): nothing local is left to read.

+//! Live capture: the collector's capture thread, apart from delivery.
+//!
+//! In `all` and `new` sharing modes the thread runs one cancellable sweep of
+//! local history, then attaches a filesystem watcher over every path the
+//! store's own watch covers (filtered by the store's own
+//! `WatchedPath::admits`), sweeps once more, forced, to read what was written
+//! during the first sweep, and follows the watcher: a write under a provider
+//! root owes a forced sweep of its providers, which runs after a short
+//! debounce once the pace allows. Each sweep that wrote wakes delivery to
+//! drain at once. Sweeps are paced by what they cost, as selected mode's inventory
+//! is: the next starts no sooner than [`SWEEP_DUTY_FACTOR`] times the last
+//! one's duration after it ended, and never sooner than [`SWEEP_MIN_GAP`],
+//! so a provider writing its transcript every second holds at most about a
+//! tenth of a core however costly a sweep is. Every sweep is the store's own
+//! cancellable `sync`, so a stop ends one in flight at its next boundary.
+//! Full, fingerprint-checked reconciliation is due after
+//! [`CAPTURE_BACKSTOP_INTERVAL`], paced after the previous sweep. Scoped
+//! passes do not postpone its deadline, so unreported writes are still captured.
+//! Before a full pass, the watcher is registered again when a provider root
+//! appeared. When no filesystem watcher can run, the loop polls at that
+//! interval instead, which is the former timer, and the reason is reported.
+//!
+//! In `selected` mode no provider is enumerated: a filesystem watch over
+//! the directories of the members' transcripts names the member a write
+//! landed on, and after a short debounce the thread compares that member's
+//! transcript with what it last hydrated and hydrates it if it moved. A
+//! member in a shared database moves with its own catalog row, compared
+//! after each inventory pass. Every member is hydrated each
+//! [`MEMBER_BACKSTOP_INTERVAL`], and a transcript no watch covers is
+//! compared every [`MEMBER_POLL_INTERVAL`].
+//!
+//! The thread reports a capture verdict and content-free counts and
+//! durations through [`Shared`], which the delivery loop folds into each pass
+//! report; it never writes the pass report itself.

+//! Background priority for the work that reads and uploads local history.
+//!
+//! A capture sweep, an inventory pass or an upload is catch-up work nobody
+//! waits on interactively, while the provider writing the transcript it reads
+//! is the user's foreground work. The detached collector (`run`) is therefore
+//! a background process as a whole: on macOS a Darwin background process,
+//! whose CPU, disk and network use are throttled; on Linux nice 19, set on
+//! its main thread before any other starts, so every thread inherits it.
+//! Within a process that stays at normal priority (a foreground `start`, the
+//! relay core, which also starts the person's agents), the capture and
+//! inventory threads alone drop to background: on macOS the background QoS
+//! class, which also throttles the thread's disk I/O; on Linux nice 19 for
+//! the calling thread. Threads they start inherit it. Windows uses its
+//! background modes: the whole process for `run`, the calling thread alone
+//! elsewhere (threads it starts do not inherit it there). Failing to lower the
+//! priority is logged once as a content-free JSON line and never stops
+//! capture.

+//! Reclaiming decommissioned installs, off the desktop's launch path.
+//!
+//! A decommissioned install is a directory under `~/.agentworkforce/probe/`
+//! with neither `config.json` nor `signed-out.json`: older disconnects removed
+//! their configuration and cancelled every job, but
+//! kept `history.db`, whose `origin_id` keys every record the Cloud holds, so
+//! reconnecting the same account resumes incrementally. `installs` never opens
+//! such a directory; this command is the only one that does.
+//!
+//! Without a marker every call would open every decommissioned database
+//! forever, a cost that grows by one per cloud uninstall or account switch. A
+//! pass that finds nothing left to reclaim therefore writes a marker beside the
+//! lock files recording what it observed of `history.db` and its WAL, and later
+//! calls skip the directory on a `stat` while those still match.
+//!
+//! The marker's one allowed failure is a wasted open, never a skipped reclaim.
+//! A decommissioned install is not terminal: a reconnect resumes from it, and a
+//! later disconnect leaves it with a fresh generation to reclaim. Both write to
+//! the database (setup creates a job, disconnect cancels it), which changes the
+//! observed size or modification time of the database or its WAL, so the marker
+//! invalidates itself without setup or disconnect knowing it exists. Anything
+//! else that touches the files, such as a checkpoint, costs one more open.
+//!
+//! The marker's name is versioned: when reclamation learns to release
+//! something an earlier build did not, bump [`MARKER`] and every directory an
+//! older marker skipped is examined again.

+//! Remote source connectors: provider-native cloud sessions enumerated and
+//! hydrated in-process through `history-provider-sources`' public request
+//! surface, then landed through `SessionStore`'s transport-free source
+//! intake. Provider credentials never reach the probe's own state — each
+//! connector resolves them from the provider's own CLI sign-in:
+//!
+//! - `devin-cloud` (Devin cloud sessions) through the helper's request
+//!   surface, exactly as the SDK's helper process does;
+//! - `claude-web` (Claude Code cloud sessions on claude.ai) through the same
+//!   connector driven with an explicit home, so the login can come from the
+//!   macOS Keychain (see [`super::claude_cloud`]).
+//!
+//! Connectors fail apart: one that cannot list or read never stops another
+//! one or the local pass it rides, and a connector whose last listing failed
+//! is left alone until the next listing is due.

+//! The claude.ai sign-in the `claude-web` connector lists and reads Claude
+//! Code cloud sessions with: Claude Code's own login, never one of ours.
+//!
+//! The connector reads only a credentials file, `~/.claude/.credentials.json`
+//! (or `RELAYHISTORY_CLAUDE_CREDENTIALS`). On Linux Claude Code keeps its
+//! login there. On macOS it keeps the live login in the login Keychain
+//! (generic password, service `Claude Code-credentials`, account the login
+//! user name) and the file, when there is one, may be an old copy. So:
+//!
+//! - the file is used when it holds a token whose `expiresAt` is in the
+//!   future;
+//! - otherwise, on macOS, the Keychain item is read by this process
+//!   through the Security framework ([`claude_keychain`]) and handed to the
+//!   connector as a private home for the length of one pass: a 0600 file in
+//!   a 0700 folder under the probe's data folder, removed when the pass ends
+//!   (also on error);
+//! - an expired token is "not ready": no request is made with it.
+//!
+//! A capture pass reads the Keychain quietly: it never raises macOS's
+//! "allow access" prompt, and without the person's Always Allow it has no
+//! login ([`KEYCHAIN_DENIED`]). The prompt comes only from a person's own
+//! action: turning Claude Code cloud sessions on in Settings, or opening a
+//! cloud session ([`Ask::Person`]), which waits for their answer.
+//!
+//! The Keychain is never read on the capture thread: a busy `securityd`
+//! (just after wake or login) can hold even a quiet read. So [`Keychain`]
+//! reads on a thread of its own, at most one at a time per process: a pass
+//! waits [`PASS_WAIT`] for the answer, then goes on without Claude cloud
+//! sessions ("not ready", [`KEYCHAIN_WAITING`]) while every other source
+//! carries on. Later passes reuse the same pending read rather than start
+//! another, and the passes after it is answered use the login, which every
+//! caller waiting on that read gets and which is dropped after
+//! [`ANSWER_TTL`]. Once one pass has waited for a read, later ones do not
+//! wait on it again. A refusal is never reused: the next caller reads
+//! again, so access granted in Settings reaches the next listing.
+//!
+//! [`claude_keychain`]: agent_relay_probe::relay::claude_keychain
+//!
+//! Claude Code's credential is never refreshed, rewritten or otherwise
+//! changed, and neither the token nor the file's contents are logged.

+//! How fast remote sessions are downloaded, so catching up on someone's
+//! cloud history never takes over their machine or their provider account.
+//!
+//! A person's claude.ai history can be hundreds of sessions and hundreds of
+//! megabytes (256 sessions came to about 330 MB). The sweep therefore:
+//!
+//! - downloads at most [`PASS_SESSIONS`] sessions or [`PASS_TIME`] per pass,
+//!   newest first, so the backlog fills in over many passes and a pass never
+//!   holds up local uploads for minutes;
+//! - stops calling a connector the provider throttled (HTTP 429) or that is
+//!   failing (HTTP 5xx), for a wait that doubles up to an hour;
+//! - waits before trying a failing session again, doubling up to a day, and
+//!   parks a session that cannot be read (denied, too large, gone) until the
+//!   provider lists it as changed;
+//! - stops downloading while the disk has less than [`MIN_FREE_BYTES`] free
+//!   or remote downloads have grown the database by [`GROWTH_CAP`].
+//!
+//! The state lives beside the database in `history.remote-pacing`, a small
+//! JSON file; a missing or unreadable one starts afresh.

+//! cannot.
+//!
+//! A desktop counts as signed in once its session uploader is attached, but
+//! the binding (`store.cloud`, which the desktop identity sync needs) was only
+//! written by an interactive sign-in. A headless Linux core attached by the
+//! setup flow never ran one, so its agents never reached Cloud and the hosted
+//! MCP's `join_relay` could not link them. Each supervision pass now adopts
+//! the binding with a Cloud session this computer already has: the
+//! environment's, this app's kept one (renewed like any other Cloud call), or
+//! the official CLI's. The CLI's tokens are only read, never renewed: an
+//! expired one is reported with "sign in" guidance instead.
+//!
+//! The identity sync hands agent tokens to whoever owns the session it uses.
+//! A session this app did not keep (the environment's or the CLI's) may be
+//! another person's, so it is used only once Cloud confirms it belongs to the
+//! account this computer is signed in as.

+//! Claude sessions on this computer and the routes into them.
+//!
+//! - **Terminal sessions** (`claude-terminal`): Claude Code registers every
+//!   session in `<claude home>/sessions/<pid>.json` and opens an inbox
+//!   socket for cross-session messaging, authenticated by the token in the
+//!   matching `<pid>.<hash>.key` (readable only by this user). A message is
+//!   two JSON lines on that socket (see `peer_frames`). Claude Code labels
+//!   it as coming from another session, keeps its own guardrail text around
+//!   it, and may hold it for approval as `crossSessionInbound` says (see
+//!   `claude_settings`).
+//! - **Claude app sessions** (`claude-cloud`): the desktop app's folder
+//!   sessions and claude.ai/code run on Anthropic's side; the documented way
+//!   in is `claude --print --cloud <id>` under the user's own Claude sign-in.
+//!   Nothing here reads Claude credentials.
+//!
+//! Processes are read through a `ProcessTable` and commands run through a
+//! `CommandRunner`, so tests use fakes and never start a session or a CLI.

+//! Relay messages a terminal Claude Code session holds in its inbox without
+//! reading them.
+//!
+//! A message written to a session's inbox socket (`send_to_terminal`) is
+//! delivered: Claude Code has it. It reads it only at a turn boundary, so a
+//! session whose turn never ends keeps every later message queued while the
+//! roster still shows it active. Claude Code records its queue in the
+//! session's transcript:
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! {"type":"queue-operation","operation":"enqueue","timestamp":"…","sessionId":"…","content":"[via Agent Relay — from @x · ref <ref>]…"}
+//! {"type":"queue-operation","operation":"dequeue","timestamp":"…","sessionId":"…"}
+//! {"type":"queue-operation","operation":"remove","timestamp":"…","sessionId":"…","content":"…","reason":"absorbed_mid_turn"}
+//! ```
+//!
+//! An enqueue carries the message; a dequeue carries nothing, so it cannot
+//! be paired with one message. A `dequeue` or `remove` after a message's
+//! enqueue therefore counts as the queue draining past it, and any `user` or
+//! `assistant` entry counts as the session making progress. A message still
+//! queued after the session has made no progress for the threshold leaves
+//! the session stalled. Only the transcript's tail is read; delivery itself
+//! is unchanged.

+//! Agent Relay's optional Claude Code SessionStart hook.
+//!
+//! Michael's sessions stay off the relay until someone puts them on.
+//! When the setting is on, each Claude login the desktop knows about
+//! (`ClaudeSettings::login_settings`) gets one command hook. At session
+//! start that command asks `GET /setup/status` with
+//! `X-Agent-Relay-Observe: 1`, which reads status and does not apply the
+//! agent-led defaults. When `session.registered` is false and sessions may
+//! register themselves, it tells Claude to ask the person whether to put
+//! the session on the relay, and under what name, and to `POST /register`
+//! only if they say yes. The person sees a shorter notice. A session
+//! already on the relay is reminded who it is there, how to reach peers
+//! and the working norm ([`hosted_mcp::preamble`]); that says nothing to
+//! the person, so it is given to automated runs too.
+//! Only a session a person is typing in is told anything: a `claude -p`,
+//! Agent SDK or structured pipe run (a flows step, cron, CI) has nobody to
+//! answer, so the hook stays quiet there ([`has_person`]). When that setting is off, the nudge says so and does
+//! not offer a command that would be refused. It never registers the
+//! session, and it prints nothing when the status cannot be read.
+//!
+//! The setting is off unless turned on. It is installed only into shared
+//! logins (`login_settings`). Turning it off, and a refresh while it is on,
+//! also clear it from a watched login that has since been unshared
+//! (`watched_logins`). A directory the desktop does not watch is left alone.

+//! Every Claude Code config folder (`CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`) this person's
+//! sessions use, so a login kept apart from `~/.claude` (a tool or a company
+//! setup that runs Claude Code with `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=~/.seclaude`) has its
+//! sessions found, its messages delivered and its transcripts uploaded.
+//!
+//! A folder is watched for one of these reasons (`Origin`):
+//! - the desktop's own: its `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR`, else `~/.claude`;
+//! - a sibling `.claude` or `.claude-<name>` folder beside it, as account
+//!   switchers keep;
+//! - named in `AGENT_RELAY_CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIRS` (colon-separated);
+//! - added in Settings (`claude_config_dirs`);
+//! - the `CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR` of a Claude Code process seen running, kept
+//!   after it exits so its transcripts are still uploaded.
+//!
+//! Each folder is shared unless the person turns it off in Settings
+//! (`claude_config_dir`): an unshared folder's sessions are not listed, so
+//! they are never put on the relay or messaged, and its transcripts are never
+//! uploaded (the upload's consent check refuses a Claude session whose
+//! transcript is in one). A team that uploads only `~/.seclaude` turns the
+//! others off.
+//!
+//! Claude Code cloud sessions on claude.ai are listed and uploaded only once
+//! the person turns them on (`claude_cloud_sessions`), and only while the
+//! `~/.claude` folder is shared: reading them takes Claude Code's own login,
+//! which on macOS means a Keychain prompt the setting explains.
+//!
+//! The added and seen folders, each folder's choice and the cloud-session
+//! opt-in are kept in
+//! `claude-config-dirs.json` in the relay home, which the core and the probe
+//! both read. Each folder is listed once, by its real path.

+//! Claude Code's `crossSessionInbound` setting, served as `direct_delivery`.
+//!
+//! The setting decides what a Claude Code session does with a message from
+//! outside it: deliver it (`accept`), hold it for the user's approval
+//! (`hold`), or drop it (`refuse`). With the default, a session that skips
+//! permission prompts holds every message from a sender that does not
+//! attest its own permission mode, which includes the relay. Setting
+//! `accept` in the user's own Claude settings is Claude Code's documented
+//! way to have relayed messages delivered directly; the core changes it
+//! only when asked, keeps every other setting, and can remove it again.
+//!
+//! Organization-managed settings take precedence over the user's, and the
+//! core never edits them: a managed value other than `accept` refuses
+//! direct delivery.
+//!
+//! Direct delivery is on by default (`default_on`, the apps' first-run box
+//! and the agent-led defaults), but only where the user has not chosen: the
+//! key is absent from their own settings file. A key that is present,
+//! whatever its value (`hold`, `refuse`, `accept`), is an explicit choice and
+//! is left alone. "Ask again" writes `hold`, so it is such a choice too.

+//! Skip chat: Agent Relay Cloud's assistant over the workspace's sessions.
+//!
+//! Every request is the signed-in person's own, through `CloudAccess`, to
+//! `/workspaces/{id}/skip/{chat,projects,history}`; Cloud answers each in
+//! one JSON body (Skip does not stream). The conversation and the project
+//! view are saved per account under `<app data>/Conversations/`, named and
+//! shaped as the macOS app saved them (`<sha256(site/workspace)>.json` and
+//! `.projects.json`), so a moved directory reads as is.
+//!
+//! The core builds what Skip is told about this computer itself: the
+//! sessions discovery finds, which of them are on the account's Relaycast
+//! workspace, and the saved project view linked to them. Acting on Skip's
+//! proposals (`chat.act`, `chat.push`) goes through the agent runtime like
+//! any test message, and records a receipt before dispatch so an uncertain
+//! send is never repeated.

+//! The two ways a person signs this computer in to Agent Relay Cloud.
+//!
+//! - **Browser** (`BrowserLogin`): a loopback receiver on `127.0.0.1` with
+//!   PKCE. The core builds the login URL, the UI opens it, and Cloud
+//!   redirects back to the receiver with a short-lived handoff token that
+//!   `cloud_session::exchange_handoff` trades for a renewable session.
+//! - **Device** (`DeviceLogin`): OAuth device authorization. The device code
+//!   never leaves this value; callers get only the link, the human code and
+//!   timing.
+//!
+//! Either way, a link or a callback naming another origin than the site
+//! being signed in to is refused before anything is shown or kept.

+//! | Module | Owns |
+//! |---|---|
+//! | `threads` | Codex's thread records (`state_5.sqlite`) |
+//! | `rollout` | A thread's session file: running turns, recorded messages, replies |
+//! | `queue` | `codex queue` and Codex's queue (`queue_1.sqlite`) |
+//! | `app_server` | The shared app-server over `codex app-server proxy` (WebSocket, JSON-RPC) |
+//! | `ipc` | The Codex desktop app's window router socket |
+//! | `processes` | Threads backed by live trusted Codex processes |
+//! | `router` | `CodexRouter`: which route a message takes, and when it counts as delivered |
+//! | `runner` | Running the Codex command line, behind a trait tests fake |
+//!
+//! Every path comes from a `CodexConfig`, so tests point it at a temporary

+//! The Codex desktop app's window-to-window IPC router, at
+//! `<Codex home>/ipc/ipc.sock` while the app runs (macOS only today; the
+//! socket is simply absent elsewhere).
+//!
+//! Wire framing: a 4-byte little-endian length, then that many bytes of
+//! UTF-8 JSON. A client registers with `initialize`, asks which window owns
+//! a thread (`thread-owner-discovery`), then asks that window to start a
+//! turn (`thread-follower-start-turn`). Every request carries a per-method
+//! `version` the app checks exactly; the numbers match Codex app build 153.

+//! The route a message takes into a Codex thread.
+//!
+//! A message is delivered when the thread's rollout records it, or when a
+//! host that has the thread open confirms the turn: the shared app-server
+//! (when it has the thread loaded) or a Codex app window (when one owns
+//! it). These hosts receive a new turn only after the current turn ends. A live
+//! terminal Codex gets every message through its own queue, even while its
+//! current turn runs: that queue is first in, first out, so a message never
+//! overtakes an earlier handoff still waiting there. The exception is an idle
+//! terminal the shared app-server hosts, with no relay message in its queue:
+//! it takes the hidden app-server turn instead. That handoff is not
+//! delivery and stays accepted until the rollout records it; while the
+//! thread runs a turn it is waiting for that turn. A handoff is given 45
+//! seconds to be recorded before it is looked at again.

+//! Agent Relay's Codex Stop hook, which makes relayed messages visible in
+//! Conductor's Codex chats.
+//!
+//! Conductor (conductor.build) listens to a Codex thread only for a turn it
+//! started, and stops at that turn's `turn/completed`. A message
+//! `codex queue` delivers becomes a turn of its own, which Conductor never
+//! records: the agent answers, but the chat shows nothing. Codex runs its
+//! Stop hooks as a turn is about to end, and a hook that answers
+//! `{"decision": "block", "reason": <text>}` makes Codex go on with that text
+//! in the same turn (verified with Codex 0.159), so the reply lands inside
+//! the turn Conductor is showing.
+//!
+//! So for a Conductor chat that is working, the router holds a relayed
+//! message here (`hold`) and the hook hands it over as the turn ends
+//! (`answer`). One that arrives while the chat is idle is still delivered at
+//! once through the queue, and noted (`note_unseen`): at the end of the
+//! chat's next turn the hook asks the agent to show those messages and its
+//! answers, without acting on them again.
+//!
+//! The hook runs `agent-relay-probe relay codex-stop-hook`, which hands its
+//! input to the relay-send socket (`POST /codex/stop-hook`). The socket
+//! answers only a caller whose nearest trusted Codex holds the named
+//! thread's writer lock, so a process can collect only its own thread's
+//! messages. The setting `codex_stop_hook` adds the hook to
+//! `~/.codex/hooks.json` and trusts it through Codex's own app-server
+//! (`hooks/list`, `config/value/write`).

+//!
+//! One daemon per socket, enforced by an exclusive lock held for the
+//! process's life. It serves the bridge on a 0600 Unix socket in a 0700
+//! directory (on Windows, on the named pipe `relay::transport` derives from
+//! the socket path, limited to this user by its DACL), rediscovers the
+//! workspace every 30 s and on request, verifies a newly found key with
+//! Relaycast, keeps push channels for registered agents, and stops on
+//! SIGTERM/SIGINT (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Break, console close or system shutdown on
+//! Windows), `daemon.shutdown`, or — with `--exit-on-stdin-eof`, when a
+//! parent app hosts it — its stdin closing.

+//! Inbound delivery: every message addressed to one of this computer's

+//! ```text
+//! sender ─DM @name─▶ Relaycast deliveries ─push/poll─▶ core ─Injector─▶ session
+//!                              ◀───────────────ack/fail────┘
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Each agent has one line of work: deliveries its push socket carried, in
+//! the order they were pushed, then a read of its queue when one was asked
+//! for (a socket coming up or going down, a delivery the frame could not
+//! carry, a retry coming due, the safety poll). A delivery is put into a
+//! session at most once:
+//!
+//! - It is acknowledged only after the record that it was injected is on
+//!   disk, so an acknowledgement lost on the way never causes a second
+//!   injection: the next pass acknowledges again instead.
+//! - An injection that may or may not have arrived is never repeated. It is
+//!   recorded as in doubt and reported failed (not retryable), and reported
+//!   failed again, never acknowledged, if Relaycast redelivers it.
+//! - An agent being removed waits for the delivery in flight; nothing is
+//!   injected for it once its removal returns.
+//!
+//! Every agent's queue also has a safety timer: five minutes with live push,
+//! otherwise 3 s, backing off empty reads to 15 s. Successful queue reads
+//! refresh server presence, as do acknowledged socket heartbeats. REST
+//! heartbeats cover agents with neither form of confirmed presence: every
+//! 30 s, or every 2 minutes with a live push socket to hosted Relaycast.
+//! The supervisor also retries failed Relaycast
+//! removals and, when auto-activation is on, registers newly found sessions.
+//!
+//! Automatic final answers run on their own timer: for each message whose
+//! session could not answer it itself (or whose agent always answers), the
+//! session's transcript is read and, once its turn is over, the answer is
+//! claimed in the store before it is sent, so a concurrent socket send or a
+//! lost response can never produce a second answer.

+//! Devin CLI sessions on this computer and the route into them.
+//!
+//! A Devin session runs its agent in a `devin acp` process (or in the
+//! `devin` process itself for harnesses without a child), which holds
+//! `<data>/cli/session_locks/<session>.lock` open for as long as the
+//! session lives. That open descriptor is the kernel's proof that a
+//! process is that session: a pid copied out of a stale lock, or one
+//! reused by an unrelated process, holds nothing, and neither does a
+//! non-Devin binary.
+//!
+//! - **Discovery** lists the session each live `devin` process's held
+//!   lock names.
+//! - **Caller identification** ends at the first `devin` ancestor and
+//!   names the session whose lock it holds open, so a Devin subprocess
+//!   that is not a session never lends an outer session's identity.
+//! - **Delivery** writes the session's inbox file under
+//!   `<data>/relay/inbox.d/`, atomically renamed into place. The
+//!   session's lifecycle hooks drain files named `<session>.*.msg` into
+//!   the conversation at the next hook boundary.

+//! Fleet workers: the agents this computer's Agent Relay brokers spawned, and

+//!
+//! The contract is the files and HTTP surface the `agent-relay` CLI itself
+//! uses, never process lists or terminals:
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! <relay home>/node-claims/<node>.<generation>.json ─▶ node id + state_dir
+//! <state_dir>/connection.json {url, api_key}        ─▶ broker endpoint
+//! GET    {url}/api/spawned          (X-API-Key)     ─▶ live workers
+//! DELETE {url}/api/spawned/{name}   {expected_generation} ─▶ release
+//! ```
+//!
+//! The relay home is `$AGENT_RELAY_HOME`, else `~/.agentworkforce/relay`
+//! (`workspace::relay_home`); nothing here writes to it. A broker API key is
+//! only ever sent to a bare loopback origin, redirects are never followed,
+//! and a broker that cannot be read reports an error — never "no workers".
+//! The core reports what brokers say; a row the UI released stays "ended"
+//! in the UI until a listing no longer carries it.

+//! Grok on this computer: where it keeps its state, the live sessions its
+//! TUI records, and its leader-mode setting.
+//!
+//! - **Discovery.** A running `grok` TUI records itself in
+//!   `<grok home>/active_sessions.json` (`session_id`, `pid`, `cwd`,
+//!   `opened_at`) and removes the record when it exits. That is the Grok
+//!   counterpart of Claude Code's `sessions/<pid>.json`, except that a plain
+//!   TUI opens no socket: the record is discovery, not a route. Paseo does
+//!   not write that file: it starts `grok agent stdio` under its daemon, and
+//!   those sessions are listed from that process plus the session id Paseo
+//!   recorded for it, once that process's own Grok session directory exists.
+//!   A client started with `--no-leader`, or whose leader is not the one
+//!   running, is listed and is not deliverable.
+//! - **The route.** With leader mode on (`[cli] use_leader = true` in
+//!   `<grok home>/config.toml`, or `grok --leader`), the TUI spawns a shared
+//!   `grok agent leader` on `<grok home>/leader.sock`, and that leader loads
+//!   and prompts the TUI's own session for a second ACP client. The
+//!   already-open route in `existing_session` binds and proves it.
+//! - **The setting.** `GrokSettings` serves `use_leader` as the `grok_leader`
+//!   setting. It rewrites only that one line of `config.toml`, keeping every
+//!   other byte, with the same symlink, mode and backup rules as the Claude
+//!   settings editor.
+//!
+//! Processes are read through a `ProcessTable`, so tests never start Grok.

+//! routes spawns by (`spawn:<id>`) and the settings are keyed by
+//! (`spawn_harnesses.<id>`). Each adapter module owns everything particular
+//! to its harness: its descriptor (label, full-access wording and default,
+//! whether billing may be stated), whether it is installed, and optional
+//! facets. Spawning is the one facet so far (`SpawnFacet`): starting an
+//! agent headless and watching it, behind the spawn module's `Spawner` and
+//! `Observe` seams (`spawn::launch::RegistrySpawner`,
+//! `spawn::observe::RegistryObserver`).
+//!
+//! Adding a harness is one module here and one line in `BUILTINS`; nothing
+//! else names harnesses. The apps render the per-harness settings from the
+//! descriptors the core publishes (`SpawnStatus::harness_descriptors`).

+//! Codex. A spawned Codex is a thread on Codex's local app-server daemon
+//! (`codex app-server daemon start`, then `thread/start` and `turn/start`
+//! through `codex app-server proxy`). The daemon may unload an idle thread
+//! after this core's client goes. The thread survives a core restart, and later
+//! messages resume that registered spawn through the app-server route.
+//! On Linux under a systemd user manager, a daemon the core has to start
+//! runs in a transient scope of its own, outside the core's cgroup.
+//!
+//! Watching it: the thread is archived (ended, completed) or loaded in
+//! Codex's app-server (running). Any other thread is unknown and keeps its
+//! place: with no app-server running, or one that has not loaded it, it is
+//! paused, not ended, and comes back when Codex loads it again; freeing its
+//! place would let new spawns fill the node past its maximum. Its rollout
+//! says whether a turn runs.

+//! Delivery into a Muse session started and owned by Agent Relay. Callers
+//! must prove the live process against the registration's saved spawn
+//! identity before reaching this internal courier.
+//!
+//! The receipt is read from the *target's* own log: once Muse records
+//! `peer_message.admission.settled` `accepted` for a message from our courier
+//! whose text equals ours, the turn is durably in the owned session. The
+//! shared [`Journal`]/[`Coordinator`] give dedupe on the relay message id, a
+//! per-session lock, confirmed-replay, and never-resend-in-doubt — the same

+//! OpenCode. A spawned OpenCode is a session on an `opencode serve` of its
+//! own, started the way probe-managed OpenCode sessions start theirs
+//! (`opencode_serve`): a loopback port, fresh Basic credentials and a marker
+//! only its environment holds. The session is created in the spawn's folder
+//! with the spawn's permission rules, and its binding is sealed in the
+//! managed-session registry (`ManagedSessions::adopt`), so later messages
+//! reach it by the managed OpenCode route: `prompt_async` behind a
+//! durable journal, waiting while the session is busy. The first message
+//! goes the same way.
+//!
+//! The server runs in a process session of its own and, on Linux under a
+//! systemd user manager, in a transient scope outside the core's cgroup, so
+//! it outlives a core restart; the spawn records its pid and start time and
+//! the registry its port, and delivery proves both again before each
+//! message. Releasing the agent ends its server and, once the server is
+//! gone, forgets its binding.
+//!
+//! Watching it: its server's process, by pid and start time, and OpenCode's
+//! own `GET /session/status` (busy or retrying: working; else idle). Once
+//! the server is gone, OpenCode's database says whether a turn was left
+//! unfinished.
+//!
+//! Nobody answers a spawned agent's prompts, so its session's permission
+//! rules never ask (`permission_rules`). OpenCode loads the person's own
+//! configuration, MCP servers included, as Codex and Claude do.

The desktop identifies your session from the connecting process; never supply a sender or an agent token. The local roster does not list spawn-capable nodes or available capacity. Do not infer capacity from an agent's address or presence. If you have no authorized fleet tools, ask a coordinator to delegate or report fleet placement unavailable. If an authorized hosted Relay MCP connection is present and its tools are loaded, call list_relay_spawn_targets, choose an exact returned node, then call spawn_relay_agent with a stable idempotency key. Keep the spawn_id and check get_relay_spawn_status until ready, failed, or unknown. Accepted does not mean ready. The codes spawn_capacity_exceeded, spawn_target_unavailable, spawn_target_offline, spawn_harness_unavailable, and capacity_changed end that attempt. Keep the task, read fresh targets, and decide whether to try another node, wait, or report blocked. For an uncertain result, keep the same spawn_id and idempotency key; do not launch a duplicate."

+//! Hermes Agent on this computer and the route into it.
+//!
+//! Relay traffic goes to a Hermes profile of its own, `relay`
+//! (`<HERMES_HOME or ~/.hermes>/profiles/relay`, made with `hermes profile
+//! create relay`), never the person's main home: its own memory, no
+//! messaging channels, and a gateway that serves its API on loopback when
+//! the profile's `.env` turns it on (`API_SERVER_ENABLED=true`, default port
+//! 8642, a required `API_SERVER_KEY`). Agent Relay drives it through the
+//! Runs API, the one with durable keyed admission:
+//!
+//! - **Discovery** lists the profile as one relay agent, `Hermes (relay)`,
+//!   while its API answers with durable run idempotency
+//!   (`GET /v1/capabilities`).
+//! - **Delivery** gives every relay sender a session of its own
+//!   (`relay-dm-<sender>-<hash>`, or one per channel), so relay traffic
+//!   never lands in the person's own chats, and posts `POST /v1/runs` with
+//!   an `Idempotency-Key` derived from the delivery id: a retry after a lost
+//!   response, even across a Hermes restart, is the same run.
+//! - **The answer** is the run's final `output` once it is `completed`
+//!   (`GET /v1/runs/<id>`). Tool progress and commentary are never sent
+//!   back, and a run that failed or was interrupted has no answer.
+//!
+//! The key is read from the home's `.env` each time and never stored, and
+//! an API bound anywhere but loopback is never contacted.

+//! Message endpoints and the app's deep links.
+//!
+//! An endpoint is a legacy agent name (`alice`, `@alice`) or an exact
+//! `agent@machine` address. Relaycast owns resolution, because agent and
+//! machine identifiers may both contain `@`; the desktop only tells the two
+//! forms apart, keeps an address byte for byte, and refuses strings no
+//! reading can make an address of before anything is sent.
+//!
+//! Deep links carry destinations, never credentials or message bodies:
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! agentrelay://connect?site=https%3A%2F%2Fagentrelay.com&account=<id>&workspace=<id>
+//! agentrelay://message?to=reviewer%40sf-frame
+//! ```
+//!
+//! A development build (`agentrelay-dev://`) accepts only its own local site.

+//! Probe-owned Grok and OpenCode endpoints.

+//! Nothing in this module adopts an existing terminal, process, endpoint or
+//! credential supplied by a caller. The local bridge supplies only a trusted
+//! executable, a working directory and a provider session id. The probe
+//! launches the endpoint with a random marker and, only after kernel identity
+//! checks plus provider readback succeed, writes an immutable binding to a
+//! private registry. Picker discovery and injection both read that registry
+//! and re-verify its binding; an absent, changed or stale record fails closed.

+//! Hidden relay messages in terminal sessions (`show_relay_messages` off,
+//! the default). A terminal Codex (through `codex queue`) or Claude Code
+//! (through its peer inbox) only accepts visible input, so a relayed message
+//! cannot be hidden from it the way a Codex app chat hides one; it would show
+//! as the person's own input, reply instructions and all. Instead the full
+//! message is kept here and the session is handed a pointer: the attribution
+//! line, which keeps the message reference so the turn is still tied to its
+//! message, and the probe command (`relay read`) that reads the rest from
+//! `GET /messages?ref=…` on the session socket:
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! [via Agent Relay — from @alice · ref 1a2b3c4d5e6f]
+//! [read & reply, no confirmation needed: '/Applications/Agent Relay.app/Contents/Helpers/Agent Relay Helper' relay read 1a2b3c4d5e6f]
+//! ```
+//!
+//! The text is written before the pointer is handed over, so the message is
+//! never acknowledged without it, and kept twice Relaycast's delivery
+//! lifetime. Only the session it was handed to can read it.

+//! Messaging anyone in the workspace, as you.
+//!
+//! You message as your one relay identity, which Agent Relay Cloud owns:
+//! the same `human` agent the dashboard sends as, so the dashboard, macOS
+//! and Linux share one conversation history.
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! POST <site>/cloud/api/v1/workspaces/{id}/messaging/identity/credential ─▶ name, token
+//! POST /v1/dm {to|address, text}          (as you) ─▶ conversation_id
+//! GET  /v1/dm/conversations               (as you) ─▶ every 1:1 conversation
+//! GET  /v1/dm/{id}/messages?limit=50      (as you) ─▶ history, newest first
+//! GET  /v1/messages/{id}                  (as you) ─▶ thread_id, which history omits
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Cloud can recover the identity (a fresh token) at any time, which retires
+//! the copy held here: a token Relaycast refuses is fetched again, once.
+//! Relaycast queues every reply to you as a delivery; they are acknowledged
+//! when your conversations are read, and the identity's push socket wakes an
+//! open conversation the moment one arrives.
+//!
+//! An exact `agent@machine` history is shown only with proof from server
+//! history: the conversation must list exactly two participants with
+//! immutable agent ids, and a message must attribute the exact address to
+//! the peer's id. A cached conversation id or a matching name is never
+//! enough, so a reused name or machine cannot inherit another identity's
+//! history. A conversation without proof is looked for again at most once a
+//! minute, sooner when a reply arrives.

+//! OpenClaw agents on this computer and the route into them.
+//!
+//! OpenClaw runs one long-lived Gateway per person (`openclaw gateway`): a
+//! WebSocket and HTTP server on loopback port 18789 by default, configured
+//! in `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json`. Agent Relay reaches it the way OpenClaw's
+//! own apps do, as an operator client on loopback: it answers the Gateway's
+//! `connect.challenge` with an Ed25519 device signature (v3, protocol 3 or
+//! 4) and the Gateway's shared token, which is read from the person's
+//! config each time and never stored. Direct loopback connects are approved
+//! without a pairing prompt, and a remote Gateway is never contacted.
+//!
+//! Every OpenClaw from 2026.3.13 on is supported, without an upgrade:
+//! what each request carries follows what the Gateway's `hello-ok` reports
+//! ([`Features`]), so an older Gateway's closed schemas never see a field
+//! they do not know.
+//!
+//! - **Discovery** lists the Gateway's agents (`agents.list`), one relay
+//!   agent each, `OpenClaw · <name>`.
+//! - **Delivery** gives every relay sender a session of its own on that
+//!   agent (`agent:<agent>:relay:dm:<sender>-<hash>`, or one per channel),
+//!   so relay traffic never lands in the person's main chat, then calls
+//!   `chat.send` with the delivery id as its idempotency key, `deliver:
+//!   false` (the answer is not routed to Telegram or any other channel the
+//!   person connected). From 2026.8.1 that session is answer-only; an older
+//!   Gateway cannot limit it, so the sender gets the agent's usual tools and
+//!   Settings says so. The text always opens with Agent Relay's attribution
+//!   line, so a peer's `/reset` is never at the start of the message, where
+//!   OpenClaw reads commands.
+//! - **The answer** is read back from `chat.history`: the run's terminal
+//!   assistant text, or on a Gateway that does not mark it, the last
+//!   assistant text after this delivery's turn once no run is active. An
+//!   agent that chooses not to answer (`NO_REPLY`) leaves no text, so
+//!   nothing is sent back.

+//! Agent Relay's own tools for the person's OpenClaw agents, in one click.
+//!
+//! The hosted Agent Relay MCP (`<site>/cloud/api/v1/mcp/shared-sessions`)
+//! lets an agent list the relay's agents, message them and spawn new ones.
+//! OpenClaw reaches it as an HTTP MCP server in `openclaw.json`
+//! (`mcp.servers.agent_relay`, `auth: "oauth"`) and signs in with `openclaw
+//! mcp login`, which prints the hosted MCP's consent page and waits on a
+//! loopback callback while the person picks a workspace and approves.
+//!
+//! - **Connect** reuses a server already pointing at that URL, whatever its
+//!   name, or adds `agent_relay` through OpenClaw's own `openclaw mcp add`;
+//!   an `agent_relay` with another address is the person's and is never
+//!   overwritten. It then starts `openclaw mcp login`, answers with the
+//!   authorization URL for the app to open, and keeps the login running in
+//!   the background until the browser returns to it.
+//! - **Status** is `waiting` while that login runs, else what `openclaw mcp
+//!   status --json` reports for the server, read again at most every 30 s.
+//!   OpenClaw keeps the credentials; no token is read or shown here.
+//!
+//! A relay sender who is not trusted never gets these tools: delivery turns
+//! the server off in that sender's session (`delivery::owner_servers`).

+//! OpenCode on this computer: the plugin that makes a plain `opencode` TUI
+//! reachable, the per-process registry it keeps, and its setting.
+//!
+//! - **Why a plugin.** A plain OpenCode TUI runs its server in a worker over
+//!   an in-process fetch and opens no port; it listens only when started
+//!   with explicit server flags. OpenCode loads every `*.js` file in
+//!   `<config>/plugins/` into every process it starts, TUI included. The
+//!   bundled module supports the V1 hook API and the V2 plugin API.
+//! - **The plugin.** `agent-relay.js` listens on `<runtime>/<pid>.sock`, a
+//!   Unix socket in a directory only this user can enter, and records the
+//!   top-level sessions its process holds in `<runtime>/<pid>.json`. The
+//!   socket answers only what delivery needs, for those sessions only: the
+//!   status, one session, its messages, one message, and `prompt_async` with
+//!   a `msg_relay_` id and one text part. See `opencode/agent-relay.js`.
+//! - **The route.** `opencode_existing` delivers over that socket with the
+//!   same deterministic message id, durable journal and correlated-assistant
+//!   receipt as the managed route. Before every request it proves the pid,
+//!   its start time, uid and executable, the socket's directory, owner and
+//!   inode, and, on the connected socket, that the kernel's peer is that
+//!   pid and this user.
+//! - **The setting.** `OpenCodeSettings` serves `opencode_plugin`: on writes
+//!   the plugin file, off removes it. Only a file carrying the plugin's
+//!   marker is ever rewritten or removed; any other file at that name is kept
+//!   as a backup first and put back when the setting goes off.
+//!
+//! Processes are read through a `ProcessTable`, so tests never start
+//! OpenCode.

+//! A spawned OpenCode replies over the relay-send socket only through the
+//! managed route's proof (`managed::caller`): its shell carries the
+//! plugin's session tag, and the plugin attests that this exact server
+//! loaded the tagging hook. So every server a spawn starts loads the
+//! plugin, whether or not the person installed it in OpenCode's global
+//! `plugins/`.
+//!
+//! The plugin is written to `<runtime>/plugin/agent-relay-spawn.js`, a
+//! directory only this user can enter, and named to that one server through
+//! `OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT`: OpenCode merges that inline configuration over
+//! the person's global and project configuration and appends its `plugin`
+//! list to theirs, so their own configuration and plugins still load.
+//! Nothing is written to OpenCode's own directories. An inline
+//! configuration the person already set is kept and the plugin appended to
+//! it. A current copy of the plugin in the global `plugins/` is already
+//! loaded, so none is added; any other copy still claims the process once
+//! (`claimInstance` in `agent-relay.js`).

+//! Native delivery to an already-running authenticated OpenCode server.
+//!
+//! This module deliberately does not discover a TUI by title or inject
+//! keystrokes. A binding names one kernel process (PID + start time + UID),
+//! one loopback listener, one session, and the session's immutable workspace
+//! identity. The process must still be that exact `opencode serve` process and
+//! its Basic-auth password is read from that process's environment only after
+//! the binding is verified.
+//!
+//! OpenCode's `prompt_async` response is only an acceptance response. Delivery
+//! is complete when the session transcript holds the exact user message, under
+//! the deterministic message ID and text sent here; the receipt is
+//! `opencode:<that id>`. The turn it starts may run as long as it needs: the
+//! answer is read back separately, as the assistant message whose `parentID`
+//! is that ID. A durable pending/accepted record prevents a crash, timeout,
+//! cancellation, or lost response from becoming a blind resend.
+//!
+//! The same route also reaches a plain OpenCode TUI through Agent Relay's
+//! OpenCode plugin (`relay::opencode`). Such a binding's endpoint is
+//! `unix:<runtime>/<pid>.sock`: the process is proven the same way, the
+//! socket must sit in a private directory with the exact pinned inode, and
+//! every connection checks that the kernel's peer is the bound pid and this
+//! user. The plugin needs no password, since only this user can reach it.

+//! The relay-send socket: sessions on this computer send, list the
+//! workspace, put themselves on the relay and run agent-led setup.
+//!
+//! A session the core registered holds no Relaycast credential; the core
+//! does. So the core serves a private HTTP/1.1-over-Unix socket, and a
+//! session sends through it with nothing but a recipient and text:
+//!
+//! ```sh
+//! curl -s --unix-socket "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/agent-relay/relay.sock" \
+//!   'http://relay/send?address=alice@laptop' --data-binary 'On it.'
+//! ```
+//!
+//! On Windows the same HTTP/1.1 is served on the named pipe
+//! `relay::transport` derives from the socket path. curl cannot reach a
+//! pipe, so every command handed to a session there is the probe's own
+//! client (`agent-relay-probe relay socket-request`, [`probe_client`]).
+//!
+//! The caller is never taken at its word. The kernel reports the connecting
+//! process (`SO_PEERCRED`; `LOCAL_PEERPID` and `getpeereid` on macOS;
+//! `GetNamedPipeClientProcessId` on Windows, whose DACL admits only this
+//! user); the
+//! session directory walks up from it to the live session it runs inside,
+//! and the core acts with that session's own registration. A request naming
+//! a sender, a process outside every supported session and another user are
+//! refused, and each session may make 30 requests a minute. No key or token
+//! appears in a route's answer, except a webhook's secret, once, to the
+//! session that created it. See docs/injectable-agents.md ("Sending from a
+//! session") and docs/agent-driven-setup.md.

+//! The settings routes on the session socket: an agent reads and changes
+//! the settings the app's Settings shows, through the same core calls as
+//! the app (`settings.get`, `settings.set`) and the registry that describes
+//! them (`settings_registry`).
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! GET   /settings                                every setting
+//! PATCH /settings {"auto_join_general":true}     change one or more
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Any setting may be changed, with no confirmation, except turning on one
+//! that asks the person for something (`PERSON_TURNS_ON`), and each change is
+//! recorded: the agent's name, the time, the setting and its value before
+//! and after. Settings lists the latest (`agent_changes`), the activity log
+//! has a line for each, and the apps re-read their settings at once
+//! (`Listing::Settings`).
+//!
+//! A request is all or nothing: tools' settings are changed first and the
+//! store's only once every tool accepted; when a tool refuses, the tools'
+//! settings changed first are put back. One that cannot be put back is
+//! recorded like any other change, and the refusal names it and why.

+//! | `store` | `CodexOutbox`: states, dedupe, approvals, attempts, expiry, prune, the ack journal, the cursor |

+//! | `messages` | Wire types (`CodexInboundMessage`, `ClaudeInboundMessage`, `CodexInboundAck`), ids, message refs |
+//! | `effects` | The local effects the deliveries call, and their errors |
+//! | `codex_delivery` | `CodexDelivery`: the Codex pass and its routes |
+//! | `claude_delivery` | `ClaudeDelivery`: the Claude pass |

+//! `ClaudeDelivery`: durable delivery of messages into Claude cloud
+//! sessions, on the same outbox store (its own file; `thread_id` holds the
+//! Claude session id).
+//!
+//! Claude confirms the hand-off of a message and nothing later, so a
+//! confirmed message is finished — `completed`, with no reply. For the same
+//! reason a send cut short cannot be checked afterwards: it is failed rather
+//! than re-sent, because a teammate's prompt running twice is worse than it
+//! not running. Delivery is at most once.
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! each pass:  expire ─▶ finish confirmed sends ─▶ fail interrupted sends
+//!                    ─▶ send the oldest due message of every session
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Passes run immediately on enqueue or approval, straight away again after
+//! a pass that finished a message (freeing the next in its line), every 5 s
+//! while anything is unfinished or held, and 30 s after a failed pass.

+//! `CodexDelivery`: durable delivery of messages into Codex threads.
+//!
+//! `enqueue` commits a message and returns; the worker then delivers it when
+//! the thread can take it, and keeps trying across restarts until it is
+//! delivered, refused, or expired. Per thread, messages go in order, one
+//! turn at a time. App-server and window hosts wait for the active turn to
+//! finish. A live terminal may accept it into Codex's queue while busy.
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! each pass:  expire ─▶ settle delivered (read Codex's reply)
+//!                    ─▶ settle interrupted sends (did Codex record it?)
+//!                    ─▶ hand the oldest due message to every open thread
+//!                         app-server (loaded) ─▶ window socket (open) ─▶ codex queue (live TUI)
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Passes run immediately on enqueue or approval, every 5 s while anything
+//! is unfinished or held, and 30 s after a failed pass.

+//! ```text
+//! cloud ─▶ receive ─▶ [known id] ─▶ [id shape] ─▶ [pause] ─▶ [rate limit] ─▶ [sharing policy]
+//!                         │                                                     ├─ deny  → rejected (recorded)

+//!          then the delivery worker drives delivered / completed / failed / expired acks
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Receipt is serialized, so dedupe, policy, rate accounting and the first
+//! ack happen as one step. A refusal for a reason that may not hold later
+//! (a pause, the rate limit, sharing) is recorded, so a repeat of the id
+//! gets the same answer instead of a delivery. At most 30 messages per
+//! sender per thread are accepted in any 60 s, refusals included.

+//! `CodexSharingPolicy`: the local authorization gate between messages
+//! arriving from the cloud and threads (or Claude sessions) on this computer.
+//!
+//! Nothing is deliverable by default. A thread accepts incoming messages
+//! only once the local user shares it, and only within the bounds they
+//! chose: `hold` asks before every message, and a thread whose sandbox is
+//! off also needs `allows_unrestricted` before `auto` delivers without
+//! asking. A buggy or compromised cloud cannot reach a thread this policy
+//! has not opened, and revoking a share takes effect immediately.
+//!
+//! The policy persists to `shares.json` (the Swift app's `[CodexThreadShare]`
+//! encoding: camelCase keys, `sharedAt` in seconds since 2001-01-01). Every
+//! change first commits a fail-closed recovery intent — the SHA-256 of the
+//! snapshot about to be written — both to `RecoveryIntents`, kept outside the
+//! policy directory, and to `shares.json.pending`. On open, a surviving
+//! intent is honored only when `shares.json` is exactly that snapshot;
+//! anything else resets every share and reports
+//! `recovered_interrupted_change`. A corrupt or unreadable policy fails
+//! `open`; callers keep incoming delivery disabled.

+//! The process table on Windows.
+//!
+//! - **pid, parent, start**: the kernel (`K32EnumProcesses`,
+//!   `GetProcessTimes`) and sysinfo's parent pid. Windows never reparents:
+//!   a parent that exited leaves its pid free for reuse, so a "parent" that
+//!   started after its child is a stranger and is reported as no parent
+//!   (0), which ends every ancestry walk there.
+//! - **owner**: `peer::process_uid`, the uid the process token's user SID
+//!   maps to (the scheme `peer::current_uid` uses for this person); a
+//!   process whose token cannot be read reports `u32::MAX`, which matches
+//!   no one.
+//! - **executable**: `QueryFullProcessImageNameW`, the kernel's image path.
+//! - **arguments, environment, folder**: sysinfo, which reads them from the
+//!   process's PEB (this user's processes only).
+//! - **open files**: the system handle table, each of the process's handles
+//!   duplicated into this one; only disk files are named (`GetFileType`
+//!   first, so a pipe, whose name query can block, is never asked), and
+//!   their creation time is read from the duplicated handle, so a path
+//!   replaced since cannot change it. The walk runs on a thread of its own
+//!   and is abandoned after `OPEN_FILES_TIMEOUT`.
+//! - **TCP listeners**: `GetExtendedTcpTable`.
+//! - **terminal**: see `has_terminal`.

+//! Relaycast push for registered agents: each agent's own direct node socket,
+//! the only realtime route to an agent.
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! POST /v1/agent/node-token (agent token)       ─▶ node id, name, token
+//! wss://…/v1/node/ws?token=…  → node.register   ─▶ reply "register-…": live
+//!                             ← deliver          ─▶ wake with the frame
+//!                             → node.heartbeat every 15 s
+//!                             ← correlated presence reply ─▶ replace REST heartbeat
+//! ```
+//!
+//! A channel never acknowledges on the socket: the delivery runtime acks over
+//! HTTP once the message is in the session. Whenever a socket goes live or
+//! ends, the channel wakes a queue read, since something may have been pushed
+//! while it was down. It reconnects with jittered backoff capped at 30 s
+//! until stopped, with the node token it minted first (`tokens`): a new one
+//! only once Relaycast refuses it.

+//! Relaycast surface the published `relaycast` SDK (8.0.1) does not cover
+//! the way the desktop needs it. Everything else goes through the SDK; each
+//! item here is listed in `docs/relay-core.md` as needing upstream support
+//! and is deleted once the SDK has it. Every HTTP call here still goes
+//! through the SDK's own `HttpClient`, so auth, envelopes, retries and
+//! errors are the SDK's.
+//!
+//! - `POST /v1/agent/node-token` has no public method.
+//! - `GET /v1/workspace`: `Workspace` requires `api_key_hash`, which the
+//!   deployed server no longer sends, so the SDK cannot read the answer and
+//!   the workspace is never verified.
+//! - The direct node socket (`/v1/node/ws`): the SDK's `WsClient` acks every
+//!   `deliver` frame on the socket as it arrives. `delivery.ack` there is
+//!   terminal, and the desktop acknowledges a delivery over HTTP only after
+//!   it is in the session, so an early ack could lose a message. The SDK
+//!   also omits `machine_id` from `node.register` (the endpoint's machine
+//!   address), heartbeats every 30 s where Relaycast's direct-node liveness
+//!   needs 15 s, reports `Open` before the registration reply, and cannot
+//!   send `origin_surface`.
+//! - `POST /v1/agents`: `CreateAgentRequest` has no `direct_machine_prefix`
+//!   or `auto_join_general`.
+//! - `GET /v1/agents` and `GET /v1/agents/{name}`: `Agent` has no `address`.
+//! - `GET /v1/deliveries`: `DeliveryMessage` has no `agent_address` or
+//!   `metadata` (the relayfile path), and requires fields older servers omit.
+//! - `POST /v1/agents/{name}/subscription-channel` and
+//!   `POST /v1/integrations/relayfile/inbound-target` have no methods.
+//! - The SDK's event-subscription filter serializes absent members as `null`,
+//!   which the deployed server rejects; the compatible request omits them.
+//! - `POST /v1/dm` to an exact address: `SendDmRequest` has no `address`.
+//! - `GET /v1/files/{id}`: `FileInfo` has no `download_url` or `status`, and
+//!   requires fields the answer omits; the upload request and completion
+//!   are read leniently for the same reason.
+//! - `GET /v1/dm/conversations`: participants are flattened to names, losing
+//!   the immutable `agent_id` exact-address proof needs.
+//! - `GET /v1/dm/{id}/messages` and `GET /v1/messages/{id}`:
+//!   `MessageWithMeta` has no `agent_address` or `thread_id`.
+//! - `RelayCast` and `AgentClient` cannot set the origin client and version;
+//!   the clients here send `relay-desktop` and the desktop's version.

+//! uploads of only the sessions a person chooses (sharing mode `selected`):

+//! narrows a mode its owner chose. The defaults are
+//! recorded as applied once all three hold with a workspace signed in, and
+//! an explicit setup choice (`POST /setup/sharing` with `new` or `all`

+//! Spawning: Agent Relay starting agents on this computer, headless, through
+//! each vendor's own interface instead of the `agent-relay` broker's PTY.
+//! Each harness is one adapter in `relay::harness`, known by its id
+//! (`spawn:<id>`), with its own launch, observation and settings.
+//!
+//! ```text
+//! Cloud spawn_relay_agent ─▶ Relaycast action.invoke spawn:<harness> ─▶ spawn node (node)
+//!     ─▶ reserve a place (lifecycle::admit) or refuse: spawn_capacity_exceeded | capacity_changed
+//!     ─▶ agent.register on the node (Relaycast stamps metadata.fleet)
+//!     ─▶ launch headless (launch): Codex app-server thread │ claude -p stream-json
+//!     ─▶ store the agent like any other registration ─▶ action.result {spawned, ready, name}
+//! later: Relaycast deliver ─▶ wake ─▶ the usual delivery: HTTP read, inject, HTTP ack
+//! every 15 s: observe each spawned agent (observe) ─▶ lifecycle evidence; an end seen
+//!     reclaims its place and reports what it left unfinished
+//! ```
+//!
+//! Off until the person turns on "Accept spawns" in Settings. A spawned agent
+//! is an ordinary registration with a `spawn` origin: it is listed, delivered
+//! to and removed like any other, but it is hosted on the spawn node rather
+//! than its own direct node, so it opens no push channel of its own and is
+//! never auto-activated a second time.
+//!
+//! The node advertises what the person configured apart from what it
+//! measures (`wire::Advertisement`), and never chooses for a requester: a
+//! spawn it cannot place is refused with an explicit outcome, never queued
+//! or sent elsewhere. See `docs/node-lifecycle.md`.
+//!
+//! The core's side is split by concern: `settings` (what the person
+//! configured), `ledger` (places and evidence held in memory), `reconcile`
+//! (observing spawned agents and reclaiming places), `invoke` (answering
+//! spawn and release invocations), `host` (running the node and what it
+//! advertises), `intents` with `recover` (spawns in flight kept on disk
+//! and settled after a restart; agents carried over to a new node id),
+//! `unanswered` (registering a spawn's agent, and settling one whose
+//! `agent.register` went unanswered), `handover` (the apps joining a
+//! spawned agent and taking it over) and `claim` (recording the node as the
+//! signed-in person's in Agent Relay).

+//! Claiming this computer's spawn node for the signed-in person, so Agent
+//! Relay records whose computer it is (`POST /fleet/nodes/claim`, the route
+//! `agent-relay node claim` also calls). The claim proves both halves: the
+//! node's own token, and the person's Cloud session. Nobody needs the
+//! `agent-relay` command line for it.
+//!
+//! Checked before the node registers (so at start and after every
+//! enrollment or token rotation, as the token changed), at once after a
+//! sign-in, and every minute after; Cloud is asked again only for a new token
+//! or another account, `RETRY_MS` after it named another owner, or after a
+//! backoff following a failure (an hour after Cloud's rate limit), or at
+//! once on the person's Retry (`spawn.claim.retry`). The core never holds a
+//! spawn up on the claim, but Cloud refuses every spawn onto an unclaimed
+//! desktop, so the status says why it is not claimed. The credential the request goes out with must be
+//! the signed-in person's own (`GET /auth/whoami` says whose it is), so a
+//! node is never claimed for someone else. Claiming is idempotent: a node
+//! this person already owns stays theirs. A node another account owns takes
+//! no spawns (no `spawn:<harness>` capability, and a spawn that still arrives
+//! is refused) until a later claim succeeds. Without a sign-in nothing is
+//! asked, and the status says so.
+//!
+//! Turning spawning off keeps the claim: ownership is about the computer,
+//! which keeps its node id (`spawn-node.json`) across off and on, and a node
+//! that is off is no spawn target anyway.

+//! `agents.take_over`: stopping a spawned agent's headless process so the
+//! person can resume its session, without a delivery starting a turn under
+//! it and without a mark that outlives a process still running.
+//!
+//! The take over holds the agent's action lock (as a release does) and its
+//! delivery lock (as a delivery does) from the last look at its turn until
+//! its headless process is gone, so no message reaches the headless process
+//! once the take over decided its turn was over. Observation passes pause
+//! meanwhile, so the stop is not taken for the agent ending, and the agent
+//! is marked taken over only once its process is gone: a core that stops
+//! halfway leaves an agent not taken over, its process running or ended.

+//! The rules of a spawned agent's lifecycle, apart from where the evidence
+//! comes from (`observe`) and where it is kept (`spawn`'s ledger).
+//!
+//! Three pieces of evidence are tracked independently, each with the time it
+//! was seen: whether the node reaches Agent Relay, whether the agent's
+//! process runs, and what its harness is doing. Evidence older than its time
+//! to live reads as unknown, never as its last value.
+//!
+//! A place (slot) is held from the spawn until the agent is released or its
+//! process is positively seen to have ended. Idle and unknown agents keep
+//! theirs. See `docs/node-lifecycle.md`.

+//! This computer's spawn node: one Relaycast node socket, enrolled with the
+//! workspace key as a broker-role node, that offers `spawn:<harness>` and
+//! `release` capacity and hosts the agents it starts.
+//!
+//! The node is enrolled once and its id and token are kept in the app data
+//! directory (`spawn-node.json`, 0600), so it is the same node across
+//! restarts. A token Relaycast stops accepting is rotated with the current
+//! one as proof, always under the same id, so the agents spawned on the
+//! node stay bound to it (`rotate`).
+//!
+//! Requests the core makes on the socket (`agent.register`) are answered by
+//! id. Actions run as their own tasks, so a slow launch never holds up the
+//! heartbeat, and their results are kept until Relaycast took them, across
+//! connections and restarts (`control_retry::Results`). A `deliver` frame
+//! only wakes the agent's delivery: messages are read and acknowledged over
+//! HTTP with the agent's own token, as every other agent's are.

+//! How a spawned agent reports back to whoever spawned it.
+//!
+//! Relaycast's `action.invoke` frame names no caller, but Relaycast records
+//! one for every invocation (`caller_name`, the agent whose token invoked
+//! `spawn`) and serves it on `GET /v1/actions/spawn/invocations/<id>`. The
+//! node reads it there with the workspace key, so the requester is the one
+//! Relaycast vouches for, never a name taken from the spawn's input.
+//!
+//! The first message then names the requester and gives the agent the
+//! session-socket commands to message them and list peers: the same
+//! token-free route every session on this computer uses
+//! (`relay::outbound`). When the agent ends its first turn without sending
+//! the requester anything over the socket, its final answer is sent to them
+//! as an ordinary automatic answer (`store::Reply`), for the harnesses whose
+//! final answer the core can read; only those are told so. It goes out only
+//! while the requester's name still belongs to the agent that asked
+//! (`delivery`), as Relaycast names can be taken again.

+//! The agent store, `injectable-agents.json` in the app data directory: one
+//! format on macOS and Linux.
+//!
+//! It holds every registration and its agent token, so it is written 0600
+//! and only by swapping a fully written temporary file into place. Every
+//! writer (this daemon, and until the thin clients land the apps themselves)
+//! keeps the whole store in memory and writes it back whole, so a save takes
+//! an exclusive `flock` on `injectable-agents.json.lock`, reads the file,
+//! folds this process's changes onto whatever another process wrote since
+//! (`Store::merged`), and writes the result. A file that exists but does not
+//! decode is moved aside as `injectable-agents.json.unreadable-<time>`, never
+//! replaced; one that cannot be read at all blocks every save.
+//!

+//! | State | `distinct_id` | Person and groups |
+//! |---|---|---|
+//! | No install attached | `desktop:<installation id>` | `$process_person_profile: false` |
+//! | Install attaches | one `$identify` from `desktop:<installation id>` (`$anon_distinct_id`) to Cloud `users.id` | merges the installation's earlier events into the user |
+//! | Attached | Cloud `users.id` | `$groups: {organization, workspace}` |
+//!
+//! The merge is recorded only after PostHog accepts `$identify`, so a failed
+//! one is sent again with the next event. A merged installation id belongs
+//! to its user: a relaunch keeps using it until discovery decides, and
+//! sign-out, opt-out, discovery finding no install and another user all
+//! replace it.
+//!
+//! Storage:
+//!
+//! | | Opt-out (`{"analytics_enabled": bool}`) | Installation id (a UUID) | Merged user |
+//! |---|---|---|---|
+//! | Linux | `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/com.agentrelay.desktop/preferences.json` | `$XDG_CACHE_HOME/com.agentrelay.desktop/installation-id` | `…/analytics-identified` beside it |
+//! | macOS | `<app data dir>/preferences.json` | `<app data dir>/installation-id` | `<app data dir>/analytics-identified` |
+//!
+//! The opt-out sits in config so clearing caches never re-enables analytics.
+//! Telemetry is on unless the preference says `false`.

+//! with a DACL that grants only the current user's SID, rejects remote
+//! clients, and refuses to join a pipe name another process already holds.
+//! [`CoreStream::peer_credentials`] reports the other end: the client a
+//! listener accepted, or the server a client reached, which clients check
+//! is this user's so they never speak to an impostor.
+//!
+//! This module owns only the byte stream. The socket file's lifecycle (a

+//! The probe's own capture and upload, supervised from inside the daemon.
+//!
+//! The uploader commands (`installs`, `status`, `start`, `pause`, …) are the
+//! probe's `--json` commands, run as child processes of this very binary
+//! (`ProcessRunner`): the daemon is the probe, so there is no version skew,
+//! and a separate process is what those commands are built as. Each one
+//! holds the install's file locks for its life and releases them by
+//! exiting; its result is one JSON line on stdout and its error one safe
+//! sentence on stderr; `start` and sharing changes launch or replace the
+//! detached collector; and a command that outlives its deadline, or one
+//! still running when the person signs out, is stopped by signal, which a
+//! call into the same process could not be. A store migration that aborts
+//! takes down that command, never delivery.
+//!
+//! `Uploader` keeps the attached install, adds `needs_start` and `stage` to
+//! `status`, and every 60 s starts the collector again when it stopped or
+//! runs a build older than this one.

+//! The GTK window against an in-process fake core: what it shows comes from
+//! the snapshot and method results, and every action is a contract call.
+//!
+//! GTK runs on the process's main thread, which libtest never gives a test,
+//! so this target has its own `main` (`harness = false` in `Cargo.toml`): it
+//! runs each case in turn on the main thread, pumping the GLib main loop as
+//! the app's own loop would, while the fake core and the bridge run on a
+//! tokio runtime. It needs a display: on Linux CI it runs under `xvfb-run -a`.
+//! `cargo test --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk -- NAME` runs the cases
+//! whose name contains `NAME`. The four pages' cases are in `pages`.

+//! An in-process fake of the Relaycast surface the core uses: HTTP routes and
+//! the direct node socket on one loopback port, as the real origin serves
+//! both, plus the relayfile-cloud routes integrations use. Nothing leaves the
+//! machine.
+//!
+//! It keeps a small world: agents (registered with the workspace key), each
+//! agent's delivery queue, channels, webhooks, subscriptions, and DMs with
+//! their conversations. Answers have the shapes the SDK decodes.

+"""Send a message into a running Claude or Codex session, natively.
+
+A development tool for trying the delivery routes documented in docs/plan.md
+(§9, §10) by hand. No PTY wrapping: every route hands the message to the
+vendor's own queue. It is NOT the durable path -- the app's outbox is; this
+sends once and reports what the vendor said.
+

+  relay-send codex   <thread-id|name>   "message"   # codex terminal: `codex queue`

+
+  relay-send watch <folder>                         # deliver what an agent writes to <folder>/.relay-outbox
+
+`watch` is for an agent that can write files but not run commands on this Mac
+-- the Claude desktop app's folder sessions run their shell in a Linux sandbox.
+The agent writes one JSON file per message into <folder>/.relay-outbox/:
+
+  {"to": "codex:<thread-id>", "text": "...", "from": "Claude"}
+
+where "to" is codex:<thread>, claude:<session name> or claude-app:<folder|id>.
+Delivered files move to .relay-outbox/sent/, refused ones to .relay-outbox/failed/.
+
+Add --from NAME to label the sender (default: $USER). The message may also come
+on stdin. Reading a Claude terminal session's key file is what lets this talk
+to it; only sessions owned by your own user are reachable.

+# Agent Relay for Windows
+
+Settings → Relay shows **Continue Claude from mobile (Experimental)** but keeps
+it disabled on Windows. The shared core reports `mobile_claude_handoff_supported`
+as false and refuses opt-in before installation. Claude's native HTTP connection
+has not been verified with Windows named pipes, and there is no subprocess
+fallback. macOS and Linux use a native Unix-socket connection authenticated as
+Claude itself; tool subprocesses are refused. See [the shared flow and
+limits](../docs/workspace-layout.md).
+
+The Windows app is the Linux GTK 4 app built for Windows: the same
+`agent-relay-desktop` program from [`probe/src/linux_app`](../probe/src/linux_app)
+(the probe crate's `gtk` feature), with the same sessions table, header,
+Settings panes, Agents, Team, Messages, tray menu and sign-in, word for word.
+The logged-out screen offers **Sign in with Google**, without a separate
+**Use another account** button. Sign-in always opens Google's account chooser
+instead of reusing a saved app or CLI session.
+It is a thin client of the relay core, `agent-relay-probe relay serve`,
+bundled beside it; see [relay core](../docs/relay-core.md) and the
+[Linux README](../linux/README.md) for what every screen does. Only the parts
+that touch the operating system differ:
+
+The shared core also exposes Cursor Cloud agent listing, launch, native
+follow-up injection, run status, archive and restore on Windows exactly as on
+macOS and Linux. Cursor credentials remain in Agent Relay Cloud; no local
+`cursor-agent` executable or Windows-specific integration is required. See
+[Cursor Cloud agents](../docs/cursor-cloud.md).
+
+| | Linux | Windows |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Bridge to the core | Unix socket `~/.agentworkforce/desktop/core.sock` | Named pipe `\\.\pipe\agent-relay-<hash>`, open only to your Windows account |
+| Background service | `agent-relay.service` systemd user unit | **Agent Relay (<your account>)** task in Task Scheduler, run at your logon (no administrator rights) |
+| Tray | StatusNotifierItem | Notification-area icon |
+| Notifications | Desktop notifications | Windows toast notifications |
+| Install | `.deb` or `.tar.gz` | `Setup.exe` or `.zip`, per user |
+| Launcher | `.desktop` entry | Start menu shortcut and the `agentrelay://` link handler |
+| Settings shortcut | **Ctrl+,** | **Ctrl+,** |
+
+Why GTK rather than WPF or WinUI is in [Windows app plan](../docs/windows-app.md).
+
+As on macOS and Linux, the shared core's peer-message note lets work already
+authorized in the receiving session continue within the harness's permissions.
+A peer's approval claim grants nothing new, and Claude's native peer-message
+restrictions still apply.
+
+Session titles are edited only in the open session's header, using **Rename**.
+The title stays as borderless text while editing. Enter or **Done** saves,
+Escape cancels, and leaving the editor saves after a short focus-change delay.
+The sparkle fills the draft with the saved pipeline title, preloaded when the
+session opens. The sessions table has no edit controls or title-preload reads.
+This is the same GTK implementation as Linux, with the same optimistic save,
+rollback and native-harness capability checks; see **Session titles** in the
+[Linux README](../linux/README.md).

+
+Not sure which you have? **Settings › System › About › System type**.
+Every release also carries version-pinned copies
+(`AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe`,
+`AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>.zip`) and a `.sha256` for each, plus
+`AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip`, the bare core
+(`agent_relay\helpers\agent-relay-probe.exe` and the DLLs it needs) for
+headless use.
+
+## Install
+
+Agent Relay installs per user, without administrator rights, under
+`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\`.
+
+**With the installer.** Double-click `AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe`.
+It asks for no administrator rights and no folder: it installs into
+`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>\`,
+adds Agent Relay to the Start menu (and, if you tick it, the desktop),
+registers `agentrelay://` links and starts the app. The installer is not
+code-signed yet, so SmartScreen shows *Windows protected your PC*: choose
+**More info** › **Run anyway** (see [Unsigned builds](#unsigned-builds)).
+Running a newer Setup over an installed Agent Relay upgrades it in place: it
+closes the open window, installs the new version beside the old one and moves
+Launch at login and the logon task to it, as an in-app update does; if the
+logon task cannot be moved, Setup says so and the service restarts from
+Settings › **Background service**. For a scripted install, run
+it with `/VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /NORESTART`; it then does not start the
+app.
+
+**Portable, from the zip.** Unpack the zip under the same folder and start
+the app once; it adds itself to the Start menu. In PowerShell:
+
+```powershell
+$arch = if ($env:PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE -eq 'ARM64') { 'arm64' } else { 'x64' }
+$release = Invoke-RestMethod https://api.github.com/repos/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/latest
+$version = $release.tag_name.TrimStart('v')
+$base = "https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay-desktop-releases/releases/download/v$version"
+$zip = "$env:TEMP\AgentRelay-$version-Windows-$arch.zip"
+Invoke-WebRequest "$base/AgentRelay-$version-Windows-$arch.zip" -OutFile $zip
+$expected = (Invoke-RestMethod "$base/AgentRelay-$version-Windows-$arch.zip.sha256").Split(' ')[0]
+if ((Get-FileHash $zip -Algorithm SHA256).Hash -ne $expected) { throw 'Checksum mismatch' }
+$dest = "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\AgentRelay\$version"
+Expand-Archive $zip $dest -Force
+& "$dest\AgentRelay-Windows-$arch\bin\agent-relay-desktop.exe"
+```
+
+Either way, the install is this folder:
+
+```
+%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\<version>\AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>\
+  bin\agent-relay-desktop.exe  the app
+  bin\agent-relay-probe.exe    the relay core
+  bin\*.dll, gdbus.exe, …      the GTK 4 runtime from MSYS2
+  lib\gdk-pixbuf-2.0\          image loaders, with SVG
+  share\glib-2.0\schemas\      GTK's settings schemas
+  share\gtk-4.0\               GTK's data
+  share\icons\                 Adwaita symbolic icons, the Agent Relay icon and agent-relay.ico
+  NOTICES.txt                  the bundled libraries and their licenses
+  LICENSE.txt                  the Apache License 2.0 the app and core are released under
+  agent-icons-LICENSE.txt      the license of the bundled agent icons
+```
+
+On first start a per-user install writes the Start menu shortcut
+(`%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Agent Relay.lnk`), the
+`agentrelay://` link handler under `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes`, and
+the **Agent Relay (<your account>)** logon task in Task Scheduler, turned off (one task per Windows account). Windows files the
+app's notifications under the AppUserModelId `AgentWorkforce.AgentRelay`
+(registered under `HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\AppUserModelId`). The
+app's own preferences are in `%APPDATA%\agent-relay\desktop.json`. `agent-relay-desktop.exe
+--install-launcher` writes the shortcut without opening the window. A copy
+unpacked anywhere else runs, but is treated as a build: it does not update
+itself or add a shortcut.
+
+Agent Relay runs once per Windows account. Starting `agent-relay-desktop.exe` again
+(the Start menu, a terminal, an `agentrelay://` link) hands its arguments to
+the running app and exits within a second: the window comes back from the
+tray with the link opened, and `--background` leaves it in the tray, with no
+second tray icon. As on Linux this is GApplication's D-Bus uniqueness; the
+bus is the bundled `bin\gdbus.exe`, which GLib starts
+(`gdbus.exe _win32_run_session_bus`) the first time the app registers and
+which keeps running while you are signed in to Windows.
+
+**Settings › Background service** turns the logon task on, as it turns on the
+systemd user service on Linux: Task Scheduler then runs `agent-relay-desktop.exe
+--headless` when you sign in to Windows, which keeps your agents connected and
+uploads running with no window, and the app connects to it. With it off, the
+app runs the core itself.
+
+**Updates.** A per-user install checks the public releases once a day.
+Installing an update downloads the release's zip, checks its published
+SHA-256, unpacks it beside the running version, points the logon task at it
+(restarting the task if it runs) and relaunches. The previous version stays on
+disk until the next update. After the installer, an update also keeps the
+**Installed apps** entry and a desktop shortcut on the new version.
+
+The first release whose app is named `agent-relay-desktop.exe` needs a
+one-time manual upgrade from an older install: the old in-app updater requires
+`bin\agent-relay.exe` in the downloaded zip, which the renamed package
+deliberately no longer provides. Download and run the new Setup program (or
+replace a portable install with the new zip). In-app updates work normally
+again after that release. The installer preserves the app's data and sign-in.
+
+**Uninstall.** If you used the installer, uninstall **Agent Relay** from
+**Settings › Apps › Installed apps**. Its uninstaller
+(`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay\unins000.exe`) ends and deletes the
+**Agent Relay (<your account>)** logon task, quits Agent Relay, and removes
+every installed version (all of `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay`,
+including versions in-app updates added), the Start menu and desktop
+shortcuts, the `agentrelay://` handler, the notification identity and the
+**Launch at login** entry. It keeps your sign-in and data.
+
+For a zip install: quit Agent Relay (tray icon › **Quit Agent Relay**), turn off
+the task or run `schtasks /Delete /TN "Agent Relay (%USERNAME%)" /F`, then delete
+`%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\AgentRelay`, the Start menu shortcut and
+`HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\agentrelay` and
+`HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\AppUserModelId\AgentWorkforce.AgentRelay`.
+Your sign-in and the core's data are in `%USERPROFILE%\.agentworkforce`, and
+the app's preferences in `%APPDATA%\agent-relay`.
+
+### Unsigned builds
+
+Releases, the installer included, are not code-signed yet. Microsoft Defender
+SmartScreen may show *Windows protected your PC* when you open the installer
+or on the first start: choose **More info** › **Run anyway**. **Smart App Control** blocks unsigned programs with no way to allow
+one; it must be off (**Windows Security › App & browser control › Smart App
+Control**) to run Agent Relay, or anything you build yourself, until releases
+are signed. Signing the installer, executables and DLLs is planned (see
+[the plan's status](../docs/windows-app.md#status)).
+
+## What works on Windows
+
+Core diagnostics are saved in the app data directory's `logs/core.log`
+(`%USERPROFILE%\.local\share\com.agentrelay.desktop\logs\core.log` by default,
+respecting `XDG_DATA_HOME` and `--app-data-dir`). This also works for the logon
+task, which has no console. Credentials are redacted; the log rotates at 1 MiB
+with three backups. Logging failures do not prevent core operation. Raw child
+output and request or message bodies are not captured.
+
+Everything the app shows works as on Linux, with these sessions: **Claude
+Code** and **Codex** run natively on Windows and list, upload, receive
+messages and spawn in full.
+
+Harnesses that are Unix-only tools are unavailable on Windows, and their
+Settings rows say so: **Muse**, **Devin**, **Grok CLI**, **Hermes**,
+**OpenClaw**, **OpenCode** existing-session injection and **Pi**. The core
+reports them unavailable rather than failing to start them.
+
+Every control that changes the core shows the change the moment it is made
+and goes back, with the reason beside it, if the core refuses, as on Linux
+and the Mac; launch at login (the Run key) works the same way. See
+*Controls answer at once* in `linux/README.md`.
+
+Uploads recover the same way as on Linux and the Mac. Uploads that keep
+failing on a server error or a dropped connection read **Waiting to retry**
+while they wait out a backoff of at most five minutes, and the upload stage
+offers **Retry uploads** too; a rate limit only waits. A Retry or Compact that
+could not reach the background service is sent on its own once the service
+answers again, and its message clears without a click.
+
+## Building from source
+
+The app and the core build with [MSYS2](https://www.msys2.org)'s clang
+toolchain, which provides Rust, GTK 4 and its runtime without administrator
+rights: **CLANG64** on x64, **CLANGARM64** on Arm. Install MSYS2, then in its
+CLANG64 or CLANGARM64 shell:
+
+```sh
+# x64 (CLANG64); on Arm, replace clang-x86_64 with clang-aarch64
+pacman -S --needed zip unzip \
+  mingw-w64-clang-x86_64-{toolchain,rust,gtk4,pkgconf,librsvg,ntldd}
+```
+
+Check out with LF line endings, so the shell scripts run:
+
+```sh
+git clone -c core.autocrlf=false https://github.com/AgentWorkforce/relay.git
+```
+
+Build and run the app and its core:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop --bin agent-relay-probe
+probe/target/debug/agent-relay-desktop.exe
+```
+
+The app looks for its core beside itself (`agent-relay-probe.exe`), or where
+`RELAY_DESKTOP_PROBE` points. A debug build runs from the MSYS2 shell, which
+puts the GTK DLLs on `PATH`; outside it, use the packaged tree.
+
+Build the portable tree and the zips (the same as CI and releases):
+
+```sh
+scripts/build-windows.sh --version 0.0.0 --arch x64 --out dist/windows
+```
+
+Without `--app` and `--probe` it builds both in release mode with the Agent
+Relay icon and version embedded (`AGENT_RELAY_WINDOWS_ICON`, read by
+`probe/build.rs`), then writes `dist/windows/AgentRelay-Windows-<arch>/`,
+`AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>.zip` and
+`AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-probe.zip`, each with a `.sha256`, and,
+when [Inno Setup 6](https://jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php) is installed
+(`winget install JRSoftware.InnoSetup`; the script finds `ISCC.exe` through
+`$ISCC`, `PATH` or Inno Setup's install folder),
+`AgentRelay-<version>-Windows-<arch>-Setup.exe` and its `.sha256`, compiled
+from [`windows/installer/AgentRelay.iss`](installer/AgentRelay.iss).
+`--installer` fails the build without Inno Setup (CI and releases pass it);
+`--no-installer` skips it. It copies every DLL the programs and image loaders need from the MSYS2 prefix
+(found with `ntldd -R`), compiles GTK's schemas, trims Adwaita to its
+symbolic icons, renders `agent-relay.ico` from the SVG mark with
+`rsvg-convert` (no binary is checked in; without `rsvg-convert` the tree has
+no `.ico` and says so), and writes `NOTICES.txt` from pacman's package and
+license data.
+
+A locally built program is unsigned: Smart App Control must be off to run
+it, or to run cargo's build scripts at all.
+
+## Tests
+
+In the CLANG64 or CLANGARM64 shell:
+
+```sh
+cargo build --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --bin agent-relay-desktop --bin agent-relay-fake-core
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --lib linux_app
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --test linux_app_gtk
+cargo test --manifest-path probe/Cargo.toml --locked --features gtk --test linux_app_hosting
+```
+
+The GTK harness needs a desktop session (no virtual display, unlike `xvfb-run`
+on Linux). CI runs these on `windows-latest` (x64) and `windows-11-arm`
+(arm64), then builds the zips and the installer with
+`scripts/build-windows.sh`, and installs and uninstalls with the installer
+silently to check where it puts the files and what it removes.
+
+### Session history
+
+Settings › General › **Session history** shows the planned 7, 30 or 90 day and
+Forever choices, as on macOS and Linux (`history_retention_days`; see
+[workspace layout](../docs/workspace-layout.md)). The control stays disabled
+until relayhistory exposes its retention interface. Agent Relay does not remove
+older sessions automatically yet.
+
+### Usage diagnostics
+
+Windows uses the same optional PostHog usage events as macOS and Linux through
+the shared core and GTK interface. Settings → Share diagnostics controls these
+events, including agent registration, messaging, navigation and searches. Search
+queries, message contents, names and session IDs are never sent. See the root
+README’s Desktop analytics and error tracking section for the schema and limits.
+Background transcript following never counts as a new open, even without a
+cursor. Awaited update diagnostics have a three-second deadline and wait
+asynchronously so an unresponsive core cannot freeze the window before restarting.
+
+Native session titles are published as `session_title` roster metadata, refreshed after
+renames and when existing registrations reconnect. A published objective keeps priority.
+OpenClaw and Hermes gateway registrations identify an agent rather than one conversation;
+their `session_scope: "agent"` prevents a misleading History summary link. Their relay
+addresses and message delivery are unchanged.
+
+On a supported Mac or Linux computer, first enable **Accept spawns from Agent
+Relay** in Settings and wait for the computer to be claimed by your signed-in
+account. Mobile Claude continuation uses that existing ownership proof. Enabling
+continuation before the claim is ready is refused before any plugin or setting
+change; a peer message cannot establish the claim.
+
+On supported platforms, after your first mobile message, replies stay synced to your phone, including
+replies to later messages you type in that same desktop conversation. They stay
+bound to the verified owner and current control generation. Before mobile
+engagement, desktop replies are not forwarded. Permission prompts for turns you
+start on the desktop continue to use Claude's native desktop prompt.
