…code scope - CodexAdapter.ts: fix a stray statusLinkage reference left over from the #8502 cherry-pick's rename to linkage (build error otherwise) - CodexAdapter.ts: an 'interacted' child activity event no longer re-emits a running status update; the test asserting this shipped bundled with #8502 but depended on a fix from an earlier upstream commit we never ported, so the behavior itself was still missing - ProviderService.test.ts: drop an unrelated agent-browser-access describe block that leaked in from upstream context during the #8909 cherry-pick; it depends on issueMcpCredential/enableAgentBrowserAccess, a feature never ported to this fork
(cherry picked from commit 04efa7907e9ec207e2d6af459ce3b2ffd55f6107)
… helmcode scope The #8824 cherry-pick (CLI opens projects in the running desktop app) carried several unrebranded upstream identifiers that don't exist in this fork: - @t3tools/* import paths -> @helmcode/* - HostProcessUserId was missing from hostProcess.ts entirely (added, mirrors upstream's Context.Reference pattern exactly) - T3CODE_HOME env var -> HELMCODE_HOME (this fork's actual home-dir env var) - the socket/pipe directory prefix (t3code-*) didn't match this fork's own temp-dir naming convention (helmcode-*), so the CLI and desktop app computed different socket paths and could never find each other - test fixtures assumed a .t3 state directory instead of .helmcode - "T3 Code"/`t3 app` user-facing strings -> "Helm Code"/`helmcode app` All of it was either a hard compile error or a real runtime mismatch (the socket path bug broke every desktop-handoff integration test).

Needed by the new project-settings case in the thread context-menu switch (added by #8925 itself); I'd mistakenly removed it along with an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that was base-state drift, not part of that PR's actual diff.

…ests New content from the #8502 cherry-pick set T3_CODEX_COLLAB_SCRIPT, but the mock peer script (and the rest of this file) reads the already-rebranded HELMCODE_CODEX_COLLAB_SCRIPT. The mismatch left the mock peer's config path undefined, so it crashed on startup (readFileSync on undefined) and every test using it failed with CodexAppServerProcessExitedError. CI caught this; I hadn't run this integration test locally before pushing.

In `@apps/server/src/git/GitManager.ts`:
- Around line 667-672: Update the instruction assembly in GitManager’s examples
construction and the downstream policyInstruction handling so AGENTS.md and
CLAUDE.md content cannot cause either selected source to be silently truncated
at the 20,000-character policy limit; reserve bounded space for each source or
emit them as separately bounded sections. Add a regression test that generates
the final prompt with near-limit AGENTS.md content and verifies CLAUDE.md
instructions remain present.
In `@apps/server/src/project/ProjectFaviconResolver.test.ts`:
- Line 61: Update the path assertions in ProjectFaviconResolver tests to use
platform-aware expectations built with path.join(cwd, ...) instead of checking
slash-separated suffixes. Apply the same change to both the public/favicon.svg
and corresponding assertion near the second referenced location, preserving the
existing resolved-path behavior.
In `@apps/server/src/provider/Layers/CodexAdapter.ts`:
- Line 568: Update the collabAgent/metadataUpdated payload construction around
taskId and linkage so metadata-only updates include identity fields only when
supplied by the event, rather than fabricating role: "general-purpose". Ensure
the task.updated fold’s fillMetadata path preserves an existing non-default
role, and update the regression test to cover this behavior.
In `@apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/codexCollabMockPeer.mjs`:
- Around line 47-52: The collab script environment variable name is inconsistent
between loading, request recording, and integration tests. In
apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/codexCollabMockPeer.mjs lines 47-52, make
the .requests path reuse the script value loaded by the mock peer; in
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/CodexCollabRuntime.integration.test.ts lines
189, 281, and 360, set HELMCODE_CODEX_COLLAB_SCRIPT in each runtime environment.
In `@docs/user/install.md`:
- Line 16: Update both documented commands in docs/user/install.md: lines 16-16
should use npx helmcode@nightly app, and lines 22-22 should use npx
helmcode@nightly app ../my-project.

…ore the shared prompt limit Both sources were joined into one string before policyInstruction's shared 20,000-char limit truncated it from the end. A near-limit AGENTS.md could consume the whole budget and silently drop the CLAUDE.md section that followed it. Each source now gets its own 8,000-char cap before joining, so neither can starve the other.
Slash-separated endsWith() checks fail on Windows, where path.join produces backslashes. Build the expected path with path.join instead.
collabAgent/metadataUpdated always included a role, falling back to "general-purpose" when the event carried no real signal. fillMetadata downstream overwrites an existing role whenever this field is present, so a metadata-only update (e.g. a model change) could stomp a role a prior event already set correctly. The fallback default is still used for events that seed a brand-new row (started, activity); metadataUpdated now omits role entirely when the event itself doesn't supply one.
No stable npm dist-tag is published yet (see the CLI/npm section further down this same doc); the bare package name would resolve to nothing.
#8925 added it to the per-thread menu and the sidebar project-scope menu but missed the project header's own right-click menu, leaving it as the one place without this entry point.
…k retry The fallback socket attempt started a fresh CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS timer instead of using whatever remained from the original budget, so a slow primary attempt plus its fallback could take up to 2x the intended timeout.
…teral Keeps this responder in sync with the protocol version constant already used everywhere else in the desktop-activation code (broker, CLI, desktop side).
The no-userId fallback recomputed shortHash(stateDir) when the value was already sitting in stateHash. Renamed to identityKey since the fallback value isn't actually user-specific.
