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.
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.
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.
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).
Improve OpenChamber responsiveness under large session workloads while fixing
cache, synchronization, and persistence correctness across runtimes, projects,
directories, and worktrees.
- prioritize selected and visible sessions during bootstrap and defer
non-critical enrichment work
- reduce redundant message loading, event processing, store publication, and
hidden sidebar work
- prevent stale session and message requests from overwriting newer
authoritative state
- preserve existing data when authoritative fetches fail instead of treating
failures as successful empty responses
- scope session materialization, messages, drafts, queues, todos, pins,
permissions, folders, tabs, Git state, and pull request data by runtime and
directory identity
- harden runtime switching, reconnect, cleanup, mutation reconciliation, and
persisted-state ordering
- preserve live subagent Task linkage when metadata arrives after an older
message request or while streaming parts are suspended
- coalesce overlapping tail refreshes without losing newer refresh demand
- improve cold-session loading by moving deferrable work out of the critical
bootstrap path
- isolate URL authentication, mobile credentials, native secrets, and other
runtime-owned state across endpoint changes
- bound long-lived caches and remove avoidable allocations from event and
rendering hot paths
- limit virtualization to archive collections where it improves rendering
without disrupting active sidebar layout
- stabilize session folders, pin ordering, expanded state, and persisted
sidebar behavior
- open skill files through the same secure editor and outside-workspace grant
flow used by file navigation, including worktree sessions
- expand regression coverage for stale completions, runtime collisions,
reconnect behavior, persistence races, authoritative empty results, and
subagent refresh ordering
- document the updated synchronization, cache ownership, performance, and
runtime-isolation invariants
* feat(chat): migrate history list to @tanstack/react-virtual with deterministic mobile history loading
- Replace virtua with @tanstack/react-virtual for chat history on all
surfaces: bottom anchoring (anchorTo: end), key-stable prepend
preservation, and native iOS touch/momentum deferral live in the core
- Patch virtual-core to clamp the render range to real scroll bounds
during transient adjustments (OpenCode upstream parity)
- Rows render in normal flow inside a translated wrapper so sticky user
headers keep working; measurement snapshots cached per session
- Pre-write container height in scrollToFn so the browser cannot clamp
anchor corrections to the stale height; hold the prepend anchor for up
to 180 frames on mobile while fresh rows settle (cancelled by user
input; desktop relies on core anchoring alone)
- Adaptive row-size estimate from per-session measured averages; disable
reveal fade-in for virtualized history rows
- Mobile loads older history only through an explicit localized top
button: no scroll-position trigger and no post-mount background
prepend, so every insert happens from a resting state; a quiet-window
hold defers any stray prepend commit while a touch gesture is active
- Desktop/VS Code keep the seamless scroll-up trigger and progressive
background prepend
* Share project edit form between settings and sidebar dialog
Extract ProjectIdentityFields and useProjectIdentityForm so the projects
settings page and sidebar Edit dialog share the same layout and behavior.
Rename the project menu action from Rename to Edit, and add per-project
default model selection for new chats with persistence and draft-session
resolution ahead of global defaults.

* Unify project edit UI with shared ProjectIdentityEditor shell
Wrap header, fields, and inline Save changes button in one editor
component used identically by settings projects page and sidebar
dialog. Remove dialog-specific footer, title, and padding so both
surfaces render the same layout.
Co-authored-by: Serhii Dziupin <makeittech@users.noreply.github.com>
* Include Actions and Worktree sections in project Edit dialog
Extract ProjectSettingsPanel with the full settings=projects content
(identity, actions, worktree) and render it from both the settings page
and sidebar Edit dialog. Keep the dialog open after identity save so
users can configure actions and worktrees without reopening.
Co-authored-by: Serhii Dziupin <makeittech@users.noreply.github.com>
* Narrow project Edit dialog to modal-appropriate width
Use max-w-2xl instead of max-w-4xl so the popup does not inherit the
full settings page width.

* Unify project settings subsections and auto-save all fields
- Add shared ProjectSettingsSubsection with consistent titles and dividers
- Auto-save identity, actions, and worktree setup commands (debounced)

- Split worktree into Worktree and Existing worktrees subsections
- Align controls to shared max width across all subsections
Co-authored-by: Serhii Dziupin <makeittech@users.noreply.github.com>
* Harden project settings auto-save error handling
- Only update worktree setup snapshot after successful save; toast on failure
- Toast when actions auto-save is blocked by validation for >1s
Co-authored-by: Serhii Dziupin <makeittech@users.noreply.github.com>
* Show toast when project identity auto-save fails
Wrap onSave in try/catch and surface settings.projects.page.toast.saveFailed
so rejected parent callbacks are not silently swallowed.
Co-authored-by: Serhii Dziupin <makeittech@users.noreply.github.com>
* Fix clearing project default model from settings
Send null instead of undefined when no default model is selected so
updateProjectMeta enters the defaultModel branch and deletes the field.
Apply consistently in prepareSaveData, ProjectsPage, and SessionSidebar.

* perf(stores): defer safeStorage writes off the interaction path
Session switches funnel every persisted store slice through safeStorage.setItem,
and doing those large JSON.stringify writes synchronously blocked the main
thread for over a second. Add a write-behind buffer that:
- Defers each setItem/removeItem to a later task via setTimeout(0) so the
click-to-paint path is not blocked.
- Coalesces repeated writes to the same key into a single backing flush.
- Serves pending values from memory so read-after-write stays consistent
within the deferral window.
- Flushes synchronously on pagehide/beforeunload/visibilitychange/freeze so
deferred state survives tab close, reload, and the mobile freeze lifecycle.
Adds a test covering write deferral, coalescing, and pending read serving.
* fix(stores): defer persisted JSON serialization
* fix(stores): defer direct safeStorage writes

Add proper VS Code multi-root workspace support. New sessions now start in the workspace folder the user chooses instead of always using the first folder.
The VS Code sidebar now shows one shared flat session list for the currently opened workspace folders, keeps that list synced when folders are added or removed, and excludes sessions from worktrees unless that worktree is opened as a workspace folder.
Also keep the OpenCode server process independent from a specific workspace folder so changing the selected folder does not restart or interrupt existing sessions.
Add a packaged-client runtime boundary so the shared UI can talk to local,
desktop, remote, and VS Code runtimes through the right transport instead of
assuming one same-origin web server.
Centralize OpenChamber-owned API access behind RuntimeAPIs, runtimeFetch, and
runtime URL helpers, while keeping official OpenCode traffic on the SDK path.
Support runtime switching, remote host selection, desktop client credentials,
and headless connection links for pairing packaged clients with remote
OpenChamber servers.
Harden the new auth model by moving long-lived client tokens out of browser
URLs, introducing short-lived scoped URL tokens for browser-owned transports,
restricting URL-token access to explicit readable/realtime routes, and making
client-token management session-scoped or self-scoped as appropriate.
Update browser-owned assets and preview proxy flows to work with the split
runtime model, including authenticated project icons, preview token propagation,
CSP-safe preview bridge injection, and preview proxy auth that survives
short-lived URL-token expiry.
Tighten Electron security boundaries for packaged clients by gating privileged
preload state to trusted origins and requiring explicit confirmation before
connect deep-links import or switch remote runtimes.
Also refresh agent guidance and project skills so future runtime/API, auth,
preview, UI, CLI, settings, locale, and drag-to-reorder work follows the new
architecture.

Electron main, ssh-manager, and the embedded web server all write the
same settings.json. readJsonFile/readJsonRoot silently coerced any read
failure (including mid-write parse errors) to {}, and writes were plain
fs.writeFile. A partial read during a concurrent write let the reader's
next read-modify-write overwrite the whole file with only the field it
just set — wiping projects, desktopDefaultHostId, and more. Next launch
showed the welcome chooser because defaultHostId was gone, and the
sidebar was empty because projects were gone.
- Switch all writers to atomic tmp+rename so readers never see partial
JSON.
- Add mutateSettingsRoot() in Electron main to serialize read-modify-
write pairs across its own call sites (hosts config, window state,
desktop port, ssh instances, vibrancy).
- Keep read-on-error returning {} to avoid crashing startup callers,
but log loudly now so we can catch it if it ever happens again.
- useProjectsStore: don't clobber a populated cache with empty incoming
settings. If settings ever do come back empty, the sidebar stays
intact until a real, non-empty sync lands.
Derive project.id from project.path (path_<base64url(path)>), shared helper on
both server (lib/projects/project-id.js) and client (lib/projectId.ts). Replace
random UUIDs so icons, notes, todos, actions, setup-worktree, plans and
scheduledTasks share one id across restarts and reinstalls.
Fix read-then-overwrite clobber in project-config.js: scheduled-task writes now
merge with the existing project json instead of replacing it, preserving
client-written fields that live in the same file.
On settings load migrate legacy UUID ids to canonical path ids, moving config
json, storage dir contents and icon files, and remap activeProjectId. Scan for
orphan non-path_* project configs and merge them into the canonical project
when a \$ROOT_PROJECT_PATH/<file> reference resolves on disk, logging any that
can't be matched.
Client openchamberConfig.writeOpenChamberConfig re-asserts server-owned keys
(version, scheduledTasks) on write to defeat the symmetric race. Stores and
persistence derive ids from path consistently.

## What / Why
This PR finishes the desktop refactor: the Tauri app is now a thin shell that launches the web server as a sidecar and loads the UI from `http://127.0.0.1:<port>`. All real backend logic lives in `packages/web/server/index.js`; desktop Rust keeps only native integrations (menu/dialog/notifications/updater/deep-link + window chrome).
This unblocks:
- consistent behavior across web/desktop/vscode (single backend)
- simpler desktop maintenance (no duplicated Rust backend)
- host switching between Local + remote instances in desktop
- reliable cold-start behavior on slow machines (VSCode + desktop)
## Key changes
- Desktop sidecar runtime
- build pipeline to bundle web dist + `openchamber-server` sidecar (`packages/desktop/scripts/build-sidecar.mjs`)
- robust local port selection (prefer saved/default, fallback to random; persisted in `~/.config/openchamber/settings.json`)
- improved PATH handling so the sidecar can locate `opencode` CLI (incl `~/.opencode/bin`, overrides, common bins)
- disable native right-click context menu in production builds (dev keeps it)
- Desktop instance switcher (Tauri-only)
- header button + modal to add/edit/delete remote hosts, set default, probe status/ping, switch back to Local escape hatch
- auth gate includes host switcher so you can recover when a remote host is broken/auth-required
- host list stored desktop-locally (not tied to the currently selected remote server)
- Notifications
- decision logic moved server-side; desktop notifications emitted via sidecar stdout and shown natively by Tauri
- prevent double-notifications on desktop Local origin (UI ignores SSE notification when native path is active)
- restore macOS notification sound
- Updates
- Tauri updater used only when viewing Local instance in desktop shell (avoid “remote web update” triggering desktop restart)
- Settings persistence & UX polish
- persist model favorites/recents via `/api/config/settings` (works for web + desktop; not origin-dependent)
- persist per-project sidebar collapse state in `projects[].sidebarCollapsed` via `/api/config/settings` (with debounce on toggles)
- macOS header sizing/traffic-lights offsets fixed (marketing macOS major injected from desktop; MultiRun header aligned)
- VSCode cold-start: keep retrying provider/agent loads after connection to avoid empty UI on slow machines
- misc lint/type fixes + bun.lock sync
- Desktop bootstrap / resiliency
- show onboarding screen when OpenCode CLI is missing (desktop Local origin), with retry hook to restart OpenCode after install
## Testing notes
- Desktop (macOS): switch Local <-> remote, set default host, verify auth gate recovery, native notifications (with sound), updater gated to Local
- Web: favorites/recents + per-project collapsed state persist across reload/restart
- VSCode: slow startup no longer results in missing providers/agents/models
