Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

44-44: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback
 }): Promise<DesktopAppActivationResponse> {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const totalTimeoutMs = input.timeoutMs ?? CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS;+ const startedAt = Date.now();
const socket = NodeNet.createConnection(input.address);
 resolve(
sendDesktopAppActivationRequest({
address: input.fallbackAddress,
request: input.request,
- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),
}),
);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

…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.

Owner

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

#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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid.

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

…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.

Owner

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

(cherry picked from commit 9072aa1fd711170af425bf6a1a2828d0d54bbfa6)
…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback

return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {

- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),

);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

- 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.

In `@apps/web/src/components/LegacySidebar.tsx`:
- Around line 1678-1686: Add a project-settings action to the project-header
menu in LegacySidebar, using project.projectKey, closing the mobile sidebar, and
returning before the existing rename, grouping, copy-path, and delete actions.

Nitpick comments:
In `@apps/server/src/cli/app.ts`:
- Around line 164-168: Update sendDesktopAppActivationRequest so fallback
retries share the original deadline instead of starting a new
CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS period: compute and propagate the remaining timeout
budget through the recursive fallback call, and use totalTimeoutMs for the
initial setTimeout delay.
In `@apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts`:
- Line 44: Update the response construction in the relevant responder, including
both occurrences, to use the existing DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION
constant instead of the literal version 1, keeping emitted responses aligned
with the validated protocol contract.
In `@packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts`:
- Around line 34-35: Update the userId fallback in the code assigning userKey to
reuse the existing stateHash value instead of hashing input.stateDir again, and
rename the fallback variable or value to accurately reflect that it is
state-derived rather than user-specific.

…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.

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

(cherry picked from commit 9072aa1fd711170af425bf6a1a2828d0d54bbfa6)
…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

44-44: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback
 }): Promise<DesktopAppActivationResponse> {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const totalTimeoutMs = input.timeoutMs ?? CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS;+ const startedAt = Date.now();
const socket = NodeNet.createConnection(input.address);
 resolve(
sendDesktopAppActivationRequest({
address: input.fallbackAddress,
request: input.request,
- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),
}),
);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

…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.

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

44-44: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback

return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const totalTimeoutMs = input.timeoutMs ?? CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS;+ const startedAt = Date.now();
const socket = NodeNet.createConnection(input.address);

request: input.request,
- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),

);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

…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.

Owner

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

(cherry picked from commit 9072aa1fd711170af425bf6a1a2828d0d54bbfa6)
…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

…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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

44-44: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback
 }): Promise<DesktopAppActivationResponse> {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const totalTimeoutMs = input.timeoutMs ?? CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS;+ const startedAt = Date.now();
const socket = NodeNet.createConnection(input.address);
 resolve(
sendDesktopAppActivationRequest({
address: input.fallbackAddress,
request: input.request,
- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),
}),
);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

- 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

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.

…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.

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

(cherry picked from commit 9072aa1fd711170af425bf6a1a2828d0d54bbfa6)
…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

…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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

44-44: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback

return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {

const socket = NodeNet.createConnection(input.address);

sendDesktopAppActivationRequest({
address: input.fallbackAddress,
request: input.request,
- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),

);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

…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.

Cherry-picked 12 upstream PRs (plus 4 small reconciliation commits) from pingdotgg/t3code, checked one by one for real conflicts vs base-state drift. Most of the batch I attempted got skipped — details below.

Server / codex

  • #8909 bound persisted session lookups so listSessions stops scanning historical threads
  • #9080 caches project favicon resolution instead of re-resolving it every time
  • #8605 fixes quadratic input buffering in the codex app-server protocol reader
  • #8502 wires child model/effort metadata through codex sub-agent task events (also fixed a real bug this brought along: an "interacted" child-activity event was wrongly reactivating idle tasks)
  • #8806 stops overpricing cached Claude tokens
  • #8804 makes generated commit/PR text follow AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md repo conventions

CLI / desktop

  • #8824 adds helmcode app [path] — opens a project in the already-running desktop app instead of starting a new one. Needed a full reconciliation pass: unrebranded @t3tools/* import paths, a missing HostProcessUserId export, and a socket-path prefix mismatch that broke every desktop-handoff test (CLI and desktop app were computing different paths and could never find each other)

Web

  • #8889 adds expand/collapse-all to the files surface
  • #8500 fixes theme resets when toggling advanced colors
  • #8925 adds "Project settings" to the thread action menu / sidebar project menu (had to drop an unrelated multi-environment provider-map refactor that leaked into the diff as base-state context, not part of this PR)

Windows / tooling

  • #8746, #8748 fix Windows PATH repair (quote stripping + priority order)
  • #8468 allows ignored-only staged changes through lint-staged

Skipped (real reasons, not just "too hard")

  • #9001, #9013, #9092, #9096, #8472, #8504, #8610, #8600, #8567, #8481, #8532, #8793, #8809, #8831, #8994, #9076, #9084 — genuine conflicts against code we've already diverged on (provider settings UI, PR filters, keybinding registry, auth internals) or depend on upstream commits we haven't ported
  • #8614, #8688, #8919, #8936, #8959, #8978 — all depend on a richer ChatFileAttachment type upstream has and we don't; our ChatAttachment is still image-only
  • #9005 — duplicate of our own independent fix in fix(server): stop OpenCode child sessions during teardown #44
  • #8970, #9076 — would resurrect files we deliberately deleted (OpenSourceLicenses.tsx, QuitHoldOverlay.tsx)
  • #9078 — Claude Fable 5.1 is already fully wired in our fork via a different mechanism
  • #8905 — depends on an older unported feature PR (#7774), not self-contained as a standalone fix

Typecheck clean and tests pass across server, web, desktop, shared, and contracts.

(cherry picked from commit 9072aa1fd711170af425bf6a1a2828d0d54bbfa6)
…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).
(cherry picked from commit 17f00f60248374aafa2efb9b54ff08ce52e60a0a)
(cherry picked from commit cb007469161ff0db2bc2dc8123c4b30e186aae50)
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.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The changes add local desktop app activation through a validated socket protocol, desktop IPC, a web coordinator, and the helmcode app command. They also update Codex child metadata, web controls, server caching and lookup behavior, Windows PATH handling, documentation, and tooling.

Changes

Desktop app activation

Layer / File(s)Summary
Activation protocol and end-to-end flow
packages/contracts/*, packages/shared/src/desktopAppControl.ts, apps/desktop/src/app/*, apps/server/src/cli/app.ts, apps/web/src/desktopAppActivation.ts, apps/web/src/components/desktop/*
Adds versioned activation requests and responses, local socket transport, renderer brokering, the helmcode app command, and web project/thread activation.
Desktop IPC and project integration
apps/desktop/src/ipc/*, apps/desktop/src/main.ts, apps/desktop/src/preload.ts, apps/web/src/state/entities.ts, apps/web/src/routes/__root.tsx
Wires readiness and completion IPC, mounts the activation coordinator, and waits for created projects before opening threads.

Codex child-agent metadata

Layer / File(s)Summary
Child metadata lifecycle and validation
apps/server/src/provider/Layers/*, apps/server/src/provider/testFixtures/*, packages/client-runtime/src/state/*
Tracks child model and reasoning metadata across resume, settings, reroute, lifecycle, and progress events, with routing and status-preservation tests.

Web interface updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Project settings, file trees, and themes
apps/web/src/components/*, apps/web/src/hooks/*
Adds project settings navigation, expand-all and collapse-all file-tree controls, and controlled guided palette regeneration.

Server runtime and data updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Runtime, caching, pricing, and instruction policies
apps/server/src/{provider,orchestration,project,git,usage,textGeneration}/*, packages/effect-codex-app-server/src/protocol.ts
Limits session binding queries, prevents stale liveness revival, caches favicon resolution, loads repository instructions, preserves qualified pricing keys, and parses stream fragments incrementally.

Platform and supporting updates

Layer / File(s)Summary
Windows PATH, documentation, and tooling
packages/shared/src/shell.ts, apps/desktop/src/shell/DesktopShellEnvironment.ts, docs/user/*, vite.config.ts
Sanitizes Windows PATH entries, preserves inherited PATH order, documents the new behavior, and updates staged formatter handling.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk:🔵 Low · up to 8ea07

The PR adds project settings and desktop handoff behavior, but the legacy project menu still lacks the new settings action, protocol-version drift could affect future handoffs, and socket fallback may make the CLI wait longer than intended. The change is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up on these bounded issues.

…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.

1678-1686: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add Project settings to the LegacySidebar project menu.

When LegacySidebar is active, the project-header menu still contains only Rename, Group into..., Copy Path, and Remove. Users cannot open project settings from that menu. Add a project-settings item that uses project.projectKey, closes the mobile sidebar, and returns before the existing actions. Apparently this sidebar did not get the feature memo.

44-44: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Use the protocol constant instead of a literal 1.

The CLI already imports DESKTOP_APP_ACTIVATION_PROTOCOL_VERSION and validates every response with Schema.is(DesktopAppActivationResponse). This responder hardcodes version: 1 here and again on line 106. Bump the contract version and this side keeps cheerfully emitting 1 until the CLI rejects everything as invalid. Two lines now, or a fun afternoon later.

164-168: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

The fallback attempt restarts the deadline instead of sharing it.

Line 161 clears the original timer and the recursive call installs a brand new CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS. So a stale userdata socket followed by a silent dev desktop makes the user stare at nothing for ~34 seconds. Time is a flat circle, but CLI patience is not. Pass the remaining budget down.

♻️ Proposed fix: carry the remaining deadline into the fallback
 }): Promise<DesktopAppActivationResponse> {
return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
+ const totalTimeoutMs = input.timeoutMs ?? CLI_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT_MS;+ const startedAt = Date.now();
const socket = NodeNet.createConnection(input.address);
 resolve(
sendDesktopAppActivationRequest({
address: input.fallbackAddress,
request: input.request,
- ...(input.timeoutMs === undefined ? {} : { timeoutMs: input.timeoutMs }),+ timeoutMs: Math.max(1, totalTimeoutMs - (Date.now() - startedAt)),
}),
);

And use totalTimeoutMs for the initial setTimeout delay.

34-35: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

The userId === undefined fallback is not actually per-user.

shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) hashes the same stateDir that already produces stateHash. So the directory name carries zero user entropy, and two accounts sharing a stateDir value land in the same shared temp directory. On POSIX process.getuid exists, so this branch is nearly unreachable, which is the only reason this is a nit and not a fire. Reuse stateHash and give the fallback an honest name, Morty.

♻️ Proposed cleanup
- const userKey =- input.userId === undefined ? shortHash(input.stateDir).slice(0, 12) : input.userId;+ // No POSIX uid available: fall back to the state hash, which is not user-scoped.+ const userKey = input.userId ?? stateHash.slice(0, 12);

…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.
