Saved Project knowledge plans opened as an empty editor whenever the
viewer could not resolve the owning project from the current directory:
managed chats (openchamber:chats is not a registered project), worktrees
outside the repo path, and plan tabs restored after a reload. Titles
still rendered because the list reads the manifest through the correct
owner.
- Thread the owner explicitly (savedProjectPlan = { projectRef, planId })
from the panel, mobile surfaces, and persisted context tabs; PlanView
no longer guesses the project.
- An unrecognized directory resolves to no owner instead of borrowing
the active project's knowledge.
- Serialize plan writes per document (planSaveQueue) so close/switch
within the autosave debounce no longer drops the last edits, saves
cannot land out of order, and a recovered save clears the error banner.
- Send saved-plan contents inline in Improve/Implement prompts (they
have no file path); disable those actions for managed-chat plans,
which have no project directory to create a session in.
- Drop persisted plan tabs that carry an id without an owner rather than
reopening them against a guessed project.
The eslint pass in release:prepare caught what the package-scoped checks
did not: Header's handleOpenContextPlan and servicesTabs lost their last
callers with the removed shortcuts, the settings-synced listeners no
longer need the DesktopSettings import, and the store's openContextPlan
action itself went unused once the plan surface was reachable only through
the digit switcher and the rail.
The agent's browser.open used to force the context panel open and steal
the active surface, which read as panels opening by themselves. Tab
upserts now take a reveal option: the agent's opener passes reveal: false,
so the tab mounts invisibly (panes are kept alive regardless of
visibility, so agent control still works) while the panel and the active
tab stay exactly as the user left them. Manual opens are unchanged.
Every window shares one server settings document, and every PUT returns the
merged whole, so one window's activeProjectId write was adopted by the
other on its next unrelated settings save — its sidebar then auto-selected
a session in that project and wrote the pointer back, converging both
windows onto one session. settings-synced now carries an adoptWorkspace
flag: only bootstrap-grade syncs (startup, runtime switch) may adopt the
shared workspace pointers; reconcile responses keep the window's own active
project while it exists. Notification clicks and session deep links also
stopped broadcasting the session switch to every window.
A trailing configure button on the rail — outside the sortable list and the
digit shortcuts — opens a dialog that toggles each surface. The choice is
stored as the hidden set so newly added surfaces appear for everyone, and
the rail and the mod+alt+digit switcher share the same visibility filter, so
badges and shortcuts always agree. Hidden surfaces keep their data and stay
reachable from the command palette.
Single chords stay for everyday actions; open/go actions move to two-step
mod+k sequences; held mod+digit switches header session tabs and held
mod+alt+digit switches context panel surfaces. Rare actions leave the
shortcut schema for the command palette, every remaining action ships with
a default binding, and stored overrides from the old layout reset once.
Key matching now follows the physical key on non-Latin layouts and for
Option-modified digits on macOS, including in the recording dialog.
Main replaced the chat timeline scroll engine while this branch was in
flight, which obsoletes two of its subareas and reshapes a third:
- Chat timeline: main's LegendList-based MessageList/ChatContainer win;
the activation-overscan staircase targeted the removed tanstack path
(LegendList provides adaptive rendering natively) and is dropped along
with its test.
- Scroll shadows: main's hook-based masks stay (the virtualized list owns
its scroll element — there is no wrapper to hand the styling to); the
viewport-wrapper ScrollShadow rewrite, its index.css replacement, its
test, and the call-site viewportClassName adaptations are reverted to
main. The chat OverlayScrollbar keeps this branch's disableHorizontal.
- OverlayScrollbar: the direct-DOM rewrite lands, but binding now follows
the live container node instead of binding once per ref object — the
chat scroller remounts on every session switch, and a bind-once
contract left the scrollbar attached to a dead element.
- Markdown renderer: the detached-DOM cache and warm-block fast path
merge with main's block-commit reveal (enter cascade), streaming code
highlighting, and gutter reservation; the per-block reconcile keeps
both the decoration-refresh path and the reveal cascade.
Keep sidebar rows independent from the active sync directory by moving export history loading behind an explicit-directory command.
Make active-project selection preserve project topology and remove activeProjectId from mounted group render props. Reuse a per-session-array ID index so subscription snapshots do not repeatedly scan session lists.
Batch global session, status, ordering, and activity timing mutations at the existing directory event boundary so large subagent bursts publish each owner once.
Maintain active session roots, children, and directory buckets in the global store, reuse them in Sidebar projections, and avoid rebuilding live aggregates and structural data for unrelated renders while preserving authoritative ordering reconciliation.
New Streaming section on the Chat settings page with a checkbox that
controls whether the viewport follows new content while a response
streams. Default stays on. With it off, the anchored user message still
parks at the top on send, but no glide or end-follow correction runs and
the list's maintain-scroll-at-end stays disabled; the scroll-to-bottom
pill and session open keep scrolling explicitly.
Persisted through desktop settings like the other chat toggles (auto-save
diff, authoritative apply, sanitize), registered in settings search, and
localized in every locale.
The 'Always show editor toolbar' preference is gone — the docked
toolbar under the file tabs is now the only mode, and the floating
hover toolbar branch in the files editor (with its open-state and
outside-click machinery) is deleted. The stored preference is dropped
by a store migration and removed from desktop settings persistence,
settings search and every locale.
Navigation section order now reads: file editor keymap, auto-save,
terminal shell + login shell, Terminal Quick Keys, and the Session
tabs group last.
A new Session tabs group (web/desktop only) turns the header session
tabs off; disabled, the header renders the exact pre-tabs view — plain
session title with meta row and the always-visible session menu (the
same block VS Code uses). The Alt+W close-tab shortcut no-ops while
tabs are off. Registered in settings search with a matching anchor;
labels translated in all locales.
Auto-add means the strip only grows, so past 20 tabs the oldest one
leaves the working set (the newly opened tab is always the survivor).
The branch/worktree/PR/project subscriptions that feed the hover
tooltip moved into the tooltip body component, which mounts only while
the tooltip is open — a resting tab now subscribes only to its status
dot's session status and unread count.
Web/desktop header replaces the single session title with a strip of
soft pill tabs, one per session the user has opened (sidebar, palette
or deep link — opening anywhere adds a tab once). The active tab is the
familiar title block — rename, meta row and the full session menu —
inside a gently selected pill; a brand-new draft shows as a transient
pill until its session exists. Inactive tabs show the title with a
hover-revealed "..." menu (close tab, close other tabs, copy id) that
nudges the text like sidebar rows, and close by middle-click too.
Tabs drag to reorder, scroll behind the right-side header buttons with
soft fade edges, respect the reserved window-controls inset, and
persist across reloads. Closing the active tab activates its neighbour
(or opens a new draft when it was the last). Tab ids whose session is
not in the loaded list stay stored but hidden, so a partial session
list never destroys the working set. VS Code keeps the plain title;
mobile is untouched.
activeSurface was permanently 'chat' after the legacy mobile layout
removal, so the whole concept is gone: the store field, surfaceGuard,
setActiveSurface/setSurfaceGuard, the per-runtime surface memory in
prepare/restoreForRuntimeSwitch, and WorkspaceSurface itself. All ~30
setActiveSurface('chat') call sites were no-ops and are deleted;
always-true 'is the chat active' checks in keyboard shortcuts, Header
and ChatContainer are unconditional now. FilesView's dirty-file guard
kept its file-switch and close protection but drops the surface-switch
branch nothing could trigger. TerminalView visibility comes only from
its callers. The router keeps parsing legacy ?tab= links (they open the
matching context-panel surface) via its own RouteTab type and no longer
serializes a tab or diff file into URLs — desktop URLs never carried
them anyway.
MainTab/activeMainTab/setActiveMainTab/setMainTabGuard were deprecated
mirrors of the surface names — every call site now uses
activeSurface/setActiveSurface/setSurfaceGuard directly and the aliases
are gone, including the persisted mirror field.
The 'diagram' surface had no way to open it (navigateToDiagram had no
callers except a .drawio attachment click that navigated to a surface
nothing rendered); the surface, DiagramView, and its store plumbing are
removed, and a .drawio attachment now opens in the file panel.
?tab= deep links map to the matching context-panel surface instead of
setting a main-area surface nothing renders, and a persisted non-chat
surface can no longer rehydrate into a blank main area.
The tab list lived only in per-tab sessionStorage, so a new browser
tab, another device, or cleared storage showed an empty terminal
sidebar while PTYs kept running server-side, and orphans leaked until
the idle sweep. Add GET /api/terminal/sessions and adopt unknown
server sessions into the local tab projection (additive only; a failed
listing changes nothing).
The idle sweep also reaped terminals in background tabs because only
the active tab holds a WebSocket attachment. Add POST
/api/terminal/touch and have open clients periodically refresh
activity for every session their tabs reference.
Selecting text in a rendered markdown preview shows a Comment pill;
attaching stores a file-quote context draft carrying the file path, the
selected fragment (not whole lines), the user's comment, and a
best-effort source line range resolved by anchoring the fragment's
first and last lines in the raw content — a partially located fragment
gets no range rather than a misleading one. The fragment stays
highlighted while the comment input is open, using the selection
overlay rects shared with chat quote comments, and the preview's
native selection color now matches chat messages. file-quote flows
through the same context contract: composer chip previews, the message
context card, and the metadata round-trip.
Every user-attached context item (diff/file/plan comments, terminal
selections, browser annotations, PR comments and failed checks, linked
issues/PRs, and new chat-quote comments from the selection menu) is now
sent as its own synthetic text part carrying an openchamberContext
metadata payload. The model-facing text keeps the previous wording; the
timeline reads the metadata back and renders each item as a context card
instead of raw prompt text. Legacy messages still render via the old
text sniffing.
The selection menu gains a Comment option with an inline multiline
input, the quoted fragment stays highlighted while commenting, and on
mobile the input overlays the composer pill by rendering inside the
composer form. Add to chat is renamed Add to input; the menu is
restyled and the mobile Copy tile removed. Terminal drafts move their
terminal id out of the language field (persisted-draft migration v3),
and the dead preview-console source is deleted.
* fix(ui): open app deep links from chat after confirmation
DOMPurify's default URI policy stripped href from anchors with custom
application schemes (obsidian://, vscode://, ...), so every app link
rendered in chat was dead across web, desktop, VS Code, and mobile.
- Classify safe app-link schemes in lib/url.ts (browser-handled,
scriptable, webview-internal, network, and self-deep-link schemes
stay excluded) and let openExternalUrl accept them
- Keep app-link hrefs through the markdown sanitize hook
- Intercept app-link clicks in the markdown renderer and route them
through a confirmation dialog (Trust and open / Open once, dismiss
to cancel) mounted in the desktop/web app root and the mobile shell
- Persist per-device trusted schemes in a zustand store; trusted
schemes open without asking again
* feat(settings): manage trusted app link schemes in General
Add an App links section to Settings > General listing the application
schemes trusted on this device with a delete action; removing a scheme
restores the confirmation dialog for it. Register the section in
settings search.
* fix(ui): enforce app link confirmation
* fix(ui): handle app links by runtime
* fix(vscode): keep app links unsupported
* fix(settings): clarify trusted app links

* feat(chat): /btw command — side questions in a temporary forked session
/btw <question> forks the current session (full context inheritance) and
opens a compact peek panel docked above the composer. The composer itself
becomes the btw input while the panel is open: sends route to the fork,
the placeholder and a mode chip reflect the target, and the stop button
aborts the fork's turn. Closing the panel (or the chip's ✕) destroys the
fork, leaving the main conversation untouched.
The panel shows only the fork's own tail (messages at/after the fork
creation time) and live permission/question cards scoped to the fork.
- chat/btw/BtwPanel: peek sheet (desktop + mobile), fork-tail view,
auto-close on disappearance, Esc to close
- lib/btw: startBtwSession (fork + rename + routed send), closeBtwPanel
(close = destroy), filterBtwTailMessages
- ChatInput: btw-mode send routing via SendMessageOptions.sessionId,
btw-aware activity (stop/abort), placeholder + mode chip
- useSessionActivity: exported for per-session activity reads
- i18n: btw keys across all 11 locales
* fix(chat): keep btw sends isolated
* refactor(chat): rework /btw into a metadata-scoped peek panel
- Link the active btw fork through the parent session's metadata
(openchamber.btwSessionID) so the panel exists only in the session that
invoked /btw, follows parent navigation, and survives reloads; the fork
carries a kind:'btw' marker with its originalSessionID.
- Replace the wall-clock history boundary with the id of the newest cloned
message (server-generated ascending ids), stored in fork metadata.
- Derive panel identity in useBtwPanelState; useBtwStore shrinks to
transient per-parent UI state (collapsed/creating/destroying).
- Panel UX: dropdown-style glass surface, chat ScrollShadow, single
title+chevron collapse toggle, muted header controls, promote action
(keep as a full session and navigate to it), Esc collapses instead of
destroying, reserved Working indicator row, streaming auto-follow via
ResizeObserver keyed on content readiness.
- Add a 'peek' chat surface mode that suppresses per-message controls and
turn footers inside the panel; user bubbles keep a small gap below.
- Hide btw forks from the sidebar, session switcher, and command palette
until promoted; mark the fork before inserting it into local stores.
- Delete/archive lifecycle: removing the fork unlinks the parent; removing
the parent also removes its temporary fork.
- patchSessionMetadata now mirrors updated sessions into live stores.
- Localize new strings across all 12 dictionaries; add unit tests for
metadata helpers, the btw flow, and the UI store.
* fix(chat): clamp the btw panel below the app header when the keyboard is open
Reuse useMobileAutocompleteMaxHeight (the composer autocomplete precedent)
on the panel's scroll body, reserving the panel header and bottom spacer
height, so the sheet adapts to the visual viewport instead of riding under
the app header on mobile.
* fix(lint): drop unused destructured bindings in sessionBtwMetadata
CI eslint has no underscore ignore pattern; strip metadata keys with typed
copies and delete instead of discard-destructuring.

A project could pin the model new chats start on, but not the level to
run it at: the default cascade dropped any variant as soon as a project
model won, and only ever considered the global one — which belongs to
the global model.
Projects now carry `defaultVariant` alongside `defaultModel`, stored and
sanitized only next to that model, and the cascade passes it through.
Both controls sit in one "Defaults for new chats" group laid out like the
Sessions defaults, and the level appears only for models that offer them.
Picking a project in Settings called setActiveProject, which relocates
the chat, the session list, the file tree and the Git surface. Reading
another project's MCP servers or agents moved the user's whole app.
It had to, because the configuration stores resolved the directory
themselves from the active project and held one flat list. Each of them
now takes an explicit directory — omitted still means the active project,
so every caller outside Settings is unchanged — and keys loaded data by
directory next to a flat mirror of the active project. Chat, autocompletes
and pickers keep reading that mirror; a load for another directory writes
only the map. A failed load restores that directory's previous list.
Settings resolves its own directory through useSettingsDirectory, backed
by a session-local settingsProjectPath that follows the active project
until the user picks something else.
The selected provider on the Providers settings page shared a field with
the chat's model resolution. Changing the chat model or agent, and
`loadAgents` reconciling a selection, all wrote to it, so the page jumped
to an unrelated provider while the user was reading or editing one.
Only the sidebar click writes it now. A refresh no longer re-derives it
either: a provider missing from a refreshed list is expected while
OpenCode restarts and plugin-registered providers re-register.
Show every change on the current branch relative to its base in the
Changed/Staged/Last turn dropdown. The base comes from the branch's
reflog record or an explicit per-branch user choice (persisted), never
a main/master guess; when git has no record the user picks a base once
from a searchable branch list.
- server: GET /api/git/branch-base (reflog-derived base),
GET /api/git/range-files (name-status -z with rename/copy
destination paths and -C copy detection)
- shared UI: optional getBranchBase/getGitRangeFiles runtime APIs
with boundary parsing; persisted per-branch overrides keyed by
runtime+directory+branch
- DiffView: branch scope with confirmed-unavailability coercion of
persisted tabs (detached HEAD, default-branch checkout, metadata
settled without a default), range-invalidated diff cache guarded
against stale completions, bounded branch-metadata retry, read-only
diff actions in branch scope; hidden in VS Code
- helper module branchDiffScope.ts with tests for coercion,
availability, race conditions, and retry exhaustion
Create projectless chat sessions under a managed, date-scoped Chats directory and clean abandoned or deleted session folders.
Add Chats to sidebar state, startup cache, shared context, and Electron Mini Chat while keeping VS Code project-only. Resolve managed chat directories to one server-side memory owner and document the runtime contracts.
* feat(skills): remove ClawHub catalog integration
Drop the ClawHub registry as a skills catalog source across web server,
shared UI, VS Code, docs, and locales. The catalog now serves git-based
sources only: the curated Anthropic repo and user-defined repositories.
Also removes the now-unused adm-zip dependency.
* feat(skills): redesign catalog around curated GitHub repositories
Replace the single-source dropdown with a card grid of curated GitHub
repositories (Anthropic, OpenAI, Cursor pstack/skills, Matt Pocock) plus
user-defined sources. Source cards show skill counts, GitHub stars, and
last-updated time; a global search covers all loaded sources.
Server: curated sources gain GitHub repo metadata (stars, pushed_at)
fetched best-effort with a 3-hour in-memory and on-disk cache; scans
run through a concurrency-limited, deduplicated cache with 3-hour TTL
persisted across restarts. Refresh still bypasses the cache.
Shared UI: source cards, global search with clear button, per-skill
GitHub links, install/installed states. VS Code curated list updated
to match. All new copy translated across 12 locales.
* fix(skills): address catalog review findings
- GitHub metadata fetch timeout drops to 1.5s (under the catalog
client's 3s deadline) and failed lookups cache briefly (5 min) so
repeated catalog loads do not re-hit a failing API.
- Disk cache files are written with owner-only permissions (0o600);
rename preserves the mode.
- loadSource deduplicates concurrent in-flight requests per source and
the shared isLoadingSource flag now clears only when the last active
source load finishes.
The panel stored notes, todos and plans inside one shared JSON file that
six unrelated domains also wrote to, synchronised itself through window
CustomEvents, and could only read plans. It is now Project knowledge:
server-owned storage with explicit routes, a store with rollback, a
section sidebar, plans that open and edit in place, and search across
all of it.
Notes and plans the user pins travel with every message sent in that
project. Pinning is project state, not an attachment to one message, so
it holds until unpinned and the work status panel names what is riding
along and can detach it.
Agent memory is added alongside, in two scopes: what is true about the
user, and what is true about this codebase. The split is not cosmetic —
a wrong project fact costs one project and is noticed, while a wrong
global fact quietly shapes every session everywhere and the user has no
code to check it against. It stays separate from notes so an agent
mistake cannot land in what the user wrote. Sessions receive an index of
titles only; bodies are read on demand, because an index carrying full
text grows until it crowds out the conversation.
Deciding what a session must be told, and whether it has been told, now
lives on the server. The client owned it before, which meant sessions
started without a UI — scheduled tasks, sessions the agent dispatches —
received nothing at all, and a tab's record of what it had sent outlived
the conversation: after compaction the agent no longer held the block
while the tab went on believing it did. What was delivered is recorded
in the session's own metadata, and compaction restores it through the
runtime that already restores pinned messages, in the same turn.
Agent memory ships dark behind OPENCHAMBER_MEMORY_ENABLE: unset, there
is no tool, no routes, no session index, no settings row and no panel
tab. Absent rather than switched off, so nothing invites turning on a
feature that has not been announced. Pinned notes and plans are
unaffected and ship as normal.
The token breakdown of an assistant message accumulates across every API
round-trip inside the turn: each tool call re-reads the whole cached
prompt, so input/cache.read add up to several times the context window.
Every context-usage surface summed those fields, which is why the meter
could read 330% of a 1M window whose real fill was 232,872 tokens
(23.3%), and why reopening an older session jumps the readout (#2562).
The server reports the final round-trip's window as tokens.total
(optional in the message schema; opencode 1.18.18 returns it, verified
against its live /session/:id/message API). Prefer it everywhere the
window fill is displayed and fall back to summing only when the server
did not send it: contextTokensFromBreakdown in tokenUtils now owns that
rule, and the context store extractor, sync store getter, work status
panel, context sidebar, VS Code layout, mini chat, and mobile metadata
all use it instead of their own inline sums.
Fixes#2562
Branch status resolves an open PR across the whole fork network first, so a
merged fork PR can never hide an open upstream PR for the same head. Only when
no target has an open PR does the branch's newest closed/merged PR come back,
as history.
The panel shows that history as a compact note and offers creating the next PR
below it, instead of either sticking on a terminal PR or going blank after a
merge. Terminal associations stay persisted for reload continuity but are never
treated as authority: they revalidate on the discovery cadence and on focus.
History is looked up only for the branch's own remote and name, and remembered
per repo+branch, so the extra lookup cannot exhaust the route's resolve budget.
The checks summary and merge-permission lookup are skipped for a closed or
merged PR, where neither is actionable.
Auto-derived project labels were title-cased, turning .ssh into .Ssh and
opencode-claude into Opencode Claude. Show the folder name verbatim in the
sidebar, window title, settings selector and notification templates, and
migrate persisted legacy labels back to the folder name (manual renames
are preserved).
Add store persist/hydrate regressions for terminal branch associations
and a server test that a complete empty open list does not query closed
PRs. Inline the open-only matcher state so the next repo target can win.

Branch PR status now resolves open PRs only, revalidates closed/merged
associations on a discovery cadence, and clears authoritative empty
results so the panel can self-heal without a manual refresh.
