* fix(ui): move window controls position setting to Appearance
Keep desktop chrome layout with other visual settings; General retains
startup, tray, network, and access controls. Update settings search page
mapping so the control still highlights correctly.

Adds a General settings switch to show or hide the macOS menu bar item.
Persists the new desktopMacMenuBarEnabled setting and passes tray state into Electron.
Disables tray sync and native tray setup when the menu bar is turned off.
Replace the legacy terminal flow with a shared authenticated WebSocket
runtime used across web, desktop, relay, and mobile surfaces.
- introduce the v3 terminal protocol with scoped attachments, snapshots,
ordered output, bounded replay history, reconnects, and explicit lifecycle
- harden PTY creation, restart, resize, close, force-kill, idle cleanup,
shell selection, login mode, environment sanitization, and appearance sync
- add runtime-aware terminal APIs with relay authentication and Electron parity
- add a fullscreen mobile terminal workspace with touch scrolling,
long-press selection, safe-area controls, quick keys, and Ctrl/Alt input
- add terminal selection attachments, preview detection, project actions,
shell settings, and localized UI
- harden Ghostty rendering, resize recovery, Unicode handling, block
characters, line height, and stale-row behavior

Adds /craft-goal autocomplete and chat handling for starting a Goal crafting session.
Introduces new Magic Prompts content and localized labels/descriptions for Goal crafting.
Migrates desktop draft starters to include Craft a Goal once and persists the migration marker.
Arm the target button in the composer and the next prompt becomes a goal:
the server keeps the session working toward it (idle tick -> small-model
audit -> continuation) until the objective is verifiably complete, blocked,
or out of budget — even with the UI closed.
Server (packages/web/server/lib/session-goal):
- event-driven loop on the global SSE hub; goal state lives in
session.metadata.openchamber.goal (merge-safe patches, stale-write guard
by goal id), so it survives restarts and syncs to every client for free
- the small-model audit (objective + last assistant turn only, language
pinned to the objective) is the sole termination authority; blocked needs
3 consecutive verdicts, audit outages tolerate one unaudited continuation
then stop the goal as resumable-blocked
- hard stops: optional token budget, auto-continuation cap (Resume grants a
fresh allowance), turn errors; user abort pauses the goal instead of
blocking it, and resuming over an aborted tail nudges immediately
- token accounting as a snapshot of the latest turn (input + cache.read +
output), goal-relative via a creation baseline and segmented across
compactions; a compaction summary skips the audit and continues
- continuations reuse the session's own provider/model/agent/variant
UI:
- three-mode target button (arm / disarm / manage dialog), informational
goal strip with inline pause/resume and an Evaluating indicator, sidebar
state glyph, objective length counter (2000-char server clamp),
read-only completed goals
- goal entry points: composer (sessions and drafts), start-new-session-
from-answer dialog, plan implement dialog (plan content becomes the
objective), scheduled tasks (Run as goal + budget)
- Settings -> Chat -> Goal: feature toggle + default token budget with
three-layer parity (web server, client persistence, VS Code bridge);
VS Code renders goal state but hides the entry points (the loop runs in
the web server only)
Notifications: per-turn "ready" notifications are suppressed while a goal
is active; settling sends one final notification (desktop, web-push, APNs
generic titles with the session name as body) honoring the completion
toggle. Error/question/permission notifications are untouched.
Docs: user guide (session-goals) in all 9 locales + sidebar entry,
scheduled-tasks cross-reference, server module DOCUMENTATION.md.
* feat(settings): add editor font size setting for chat input and code editor
Adds an 'Editor font size' control in Settings > Appearance that sets an
absolute px font size for the chat input textarea and the in-app
CodeMirror editor. Mirrors the existing terminalFontSize lifecycle.
- New store field editorFontSize (default 13, clamp 9-32, step 1) in
useUIStore with narrow selectors at each consumer.
- Persistence wired through appearanceAutoSave, desktop + runtime API
types, and persistence.ts read/normalize.
- Settings UI row (NumberInput) with reset to 13, VisibleSetting union
entry, OpenChamberPage registration, and search index entry
appearance.editor-font-size.
- Applied as a post-zoom absolute override on the chat input textarea
and on the CodeMirror theme's content rule, leaving gutter/line-number
chrome at its existing hardcoded sizes (matches terminal scope).
- All 10 locales translated (en, es, fr, ja, ko, pl, pt-BR, uk, zh-CN,
zh-TW); no English placeholders in non-English dictionaries.
Refs #1325
* fix(codemirror): use unitless lineHeight so it scales with editor font size
The & rule in the CodeMirror theme set lineHeight to 1.5rem (~24px),
which does not scale when editorFontSize is increased (e.g., 28-32px).
This causes overlapping lines at larger font sizes.
Change to unitless 1.5, which scales proportionally with whatever fontSize
resolves to (dynamic prop or --text-code fallback). Matches browser best
practice for proportional leading.

Add Windows launch-at-login with background startup support and extend the
native tray integration to Windows.
Add a Windows-only setting to minimize or close the main window to the
system tray, persist it through desktop settings, and expose it in Settings
search and all locale dictionaries.
Keep tray state synchronized with live sessions on both macOS and Windows,
while preserving the existing macOS behavior.
Adds a chat code block wrap toggle in markdown code block headers
Persists and restores the setting across desktop/web settings
Adds localized labels and OpenChamber search entry for the new option
Adds a server-side "small model" capability: direct, cheap LLM calls that
reuse the user's existing OpenCode provider logins — the mechanism OpenCode
uses internally for titles and summaries but does not expose through the
SDK or plugins. Zero new dependencies; plain fetch with per-provider wire
formats, credentials never leave the server.
Core (packages/web/server/lib/small-model):
- Resolution mirrors OpenCode's session scoping: explicit settings override
→ small_model from the OpenCode config → family scan within the session's
provider → the session's own model. The global provider scan only serves
callers without a session context, and background callers forbid it
entirely (restrictToPreferredProvider), so conversation content never
reaches a provider the user didn't pick — explicit choices excepted.
- Per-provider auth replicating OpenCode's plugin loaders: GitHub Copilot
(device token as bearer, no exchange), ChatGPT plan via the codex
Responses API (single-flight OAuth refresh written back to auth.json),
Anthropic messages, Google generateContent, generic OpenAI-compatible.
- OpenCode's free models (opencode/big-pickle, *-free) are never called
directly; unauthenticated providers are skipped by design.
- Prompt clamping to the model's catalog context limit; thinking disabled
where a wire switch exists (Z.AI/GLM, MiniMax-M3, Gemini Flash); robust
content parsing with a clear error when a thinking model spends its whol
budget on reasoning.
- Settings → Sessions gains a Small Model group: use-default checkbox plus
an override picker limited to authenticated providers, persisted with
web/desktop/VS Code sanitization parity.
Consumers:
- Session assist: a server-side watcher on the global SSE hub generates a
short recap and one suggested follow-up after a session idles quietly fo
a minute, stored on session metadata (openchamber.assist). Freshness is
keyed to the last assistant message id, so new activity invalidates the
payload everywhere with no extra writes. The chat shows the recap under
the last message after five quiet minutes and the suggestion as a
dismissible chip above the composer (tap fills the input, never sends).
Gated by a new Chat setting (default on) that is a hard generation
switch. Language is anchored to the conversation itself, with a
script-mismatch guard against model/backend language hallucination.
- TTS: a third input mode, summarized — long replies are condensed to
spoken prose before playback on any TTS engine.
- Git: commit-message and PR generation moved off the active chat session
onto the small model fed with real diffs and the commit list (bodies
included), with a session-transport fallback for free-model-only setups.
- Notes: Add to notes distills long selections into 1-3 dense sentences
preserving exact identifiers, with verbatim fallback on failure.
Fixes along the way:
- The global event watcher now starts unconditionally; it was gated behind
the desktop-notify env, leaving the server-side event hub dead in
packaged apps.
- OpenCode re-emits message.updated for old user messages after idle; the
watcher no longer mistakes those for new activity.
- Session metadata merges from a fresh read right before the PATCH, so
writes made during the generation window (suggestion dismissals, review
links) are preserved; the assist runtime stops during graceful shutdown.
Complete rebuild of voice input on a server-authoritative streaming
architecture, replacing the legacy Web Speech / whole-blob / WASM engines
and the dead voice-agent layer (~4k lines removed).
Speech-to-text (dictation):
- Client streams 16 kHz mono PCM16 chunks over /api/dictation/ws with
seq/ack ordering; buffered audio is retained and replayed on reconnect
- Server transcribes and streams live partial transcripts back;
segments auto-commit every ~15s with silence suppression and adaptive
finalization timeouts
- Local provider (default, zero config): sherpa-onnx models in a forked
worker process — auto-download with progress, staged extraction with
verification, corrupt-model auto-recovery, idle shutdown after 5 min
- Model catalog with settings picker (accuracy/speed ratings, sizes,
download/delete): Parakeet TDT v2 (English) and v3 (25 European
languages, auto-detected), Whisper base and tiny (multilingual, light)
- OpenAI-compatible provider for any Whisper endpoint
- Composer overlay with live transcript, volume meter, timer, and
cancel / insert / insert-and-send actions; failed transcriptions keep
their audio for retry or accepting the partial text as-is
- Configurable keyboard shortcut (default mod+alt+v) toggles dictation;
Enter confirms and Escape cancels while recording
- Overlay is pixel-aligned with the composer (measured footer height,
matching paddings/typography/gaps) — no layout shift when toggling
Text-to-speech:
- Local Kokoro provider (English, 11 voices) synthesized in the same
worker via /api/dictation/tts/speak, managed by the shared model
pipeline; sentence-pipelined playback keeps time-to-first-audio at
~1 sentence regardless of message length, and stop cancels in-flight
synthesis
- Sanitizer keeps inline-code content (strips backticks only), reads
interword slashes aloud, and removes only absolute file paths
Settings:
- Voice page unified: a single read-aloud toggle owns all playback
options (the confusing "Enable Voice Mode" is gone); a new "Enable
voice input" toggle (default on, persisted to settings.json) hides
the composer mic entirely when disabled
Mobile and transport:
- iOS/Android microphone permissions added (dictation was previously
impossible on mobile)
- Fixed Android WebSocket upgrades: the Capacitor WebView origin
(https://localhost) was missing from the packaged-client allowlist,
403-ing every WS connection — root cause of the old mobile SSE lock,
which is now removed for all transports
Security and conventions:
- All HTTP routes sit behind the global /api auth gate; the WS upgrade
explicitly validates the UI session and origin, with oc_url_token
narrowly allowlisted and covered by tests; the dictation socket mints
a fresh URL token before connecting
- Routes register before the generic OpenCode proxy; the client goes
through runtimeFetch/getRuntimeUrlResolver, and runtime switches
reset the dictation socket
- VS Code deliberately reports dictation as unavailable (no server
process in that runtime)
CI: workflow Node bumped 20 -> 22 to match the repo engines and fix
better-sqlite3 installs broken by node-gyp@latest on Node 20.
New dependency: sherpa-onnx-node (prebuilt N-API; macOS/Linux x64+arm64,
Windows x64 — Windows-on-ARM falls back to the OpenAI-compatible provider)
* feat: support OpenCode steer delivery / follow-up behavior settings
Implements issue #1766 — steer delivery mode for mid-turn message
insertion, replacing the old boolean queue-mode toggle with a tri-state
follow-up behavior setting (Steer / Queue / Send immediately).
- Plumbing: threaded optional delivery: 'steer' through sendMessage
-> routeMessage -> opencodeClient.sendMessage -> promptAsync
- Store: messageQueueStore stores followUpBehavior; migration from
legacy queueModeEnabled persisted state
- Settings: Chat -> Follow-up behavior shows three radio options
using existing settings UI patterns
- Composer: when session is busy, a floating queue button remains;
force-sending a queued message (via chip click) uses delivery: 'steer'
during a busy session; Steer button intentionally omitted — steer is
available via the two-gesture path (Enter to queue -> chip to steer)
- Keyboard: queue mode = Enter queues, Ctrl+Enter sends; otherwise
Enter sends, Ctrl+Enter queues
- Persistence: DesktopSettings, web settings payload, and server-side
sanitizer handle the new key with legacy fallback
- i18n: follow-up behavior section and option labels in all 9 locales
plus new chat.chatInput.actions.queue label
- Search: settings registry updated from chat.queue-mode to
chat.follow-up-behavior
Validation: type-check passes (no new errors), lint clean.
* fix(#1766): make steer mode actually steer
The followUpBehavior === 'steer' branch in handlePrimaryAction and the
keyboard handler was a no-op — both fell into the else branch and sent
without the delivery: 'steer' flag, so selecting 'Steer (insert into
the running turn)' in settings produced identical behavior to 'Send
immediately'.
- handlePrimaryAction: when steer mode is selected and the session is
busy, call handleSubmit({ delivery: 'steer' }) directly
- Keyboard handler: in steer mode, Enter steers and Ctrl+Enter sends
immediately (consistent with queue mode where Ctrl+Enter bypasses
the special handling)
Also removes the unused chat.chatInput.actions.queue i18n key from all
9 locales (it was a dead key after the Steer button was removed from
the composer).
Validation: type-check clean, lint clean.
* refactor(#1766): flatten nested ternary in followUpBehavior resolution
Replace nested ternary with explicit if/else chain per project code style
(CONTRIBUTING.md). Import FollowUpBehavior type explicitly for the new
let declaration.
* feat(chat): drop redundant 'immediate' follow-up mode, keep Queue + Steer
'Immediate' was wire-identical to 'Steer' on a busy session: OpenCode only
supports delivery 'steer' | 'queue' and defaults to 'steer', so an immediate
send (no delivery flag) already steered into the running turn. The three-mode
UI therefore exposed two settings that did the same thing.
Collapse to two modes — Queue (unchanged: client-side queue with edit/reorder)
and Steer. Any persisted/legacy 'immediate' (and legacy queueModeEnabled=false)
now maps to 'steer', preserving prior behavior. Removes the immediate option,
its keyboard branch, the i18n label across all locales, and narrows the
followUpBehavior union to 'steer' | 'queue'.

* fix(settings): persist per-model visibility and sibling selector state
The server-side settings sanitizer only allowlisted favoriteModels and
recentModels, so hiddenModels, collapsedModelProviders, recentAgents, and
recentEfforts were stripped on every write to settings.json — per-model
visibility and collapsed-provider state silently reset on every container
redeploy or settings reload.
Add the four missing fields to sanitizeSettingsUpdate:
- hiddenModels: sanitizeModelRefs(..., 1024) — same shape as favoriteModels;
1024 covers dense multi-provider setups while bounding persistence/memory.
- collapsedModelProviders: normalizeStringArray with Array.isArray gate
(matches usageDropdownProviders).
- recentAgents: normalizeStringArray (Array<string> per ui-store).
- recentEfforts: new sanitizeRecentEfforts validating Record<string, string[]>
(shape confirmed in ui-store + addRecentEffort action); trims/dedupes keys
and variants, caps at 128 keys x 5 variants/key (5 matches client slice).
No ui-store version bump or migration: zustand's default merge spreads
persisted state over defaults, so missing fields fall back to [] / {} until
the next toggle. favoriteModels and recentModels are untouched.
Tests: 8 new cases in settings-helpers.test.js using the real
sanitizeModelRefs / normalizeStringArray — round-trips, empty-[] parity with
favoriteModels, garbage rejection, and a full-payload regression test.
* fix: sync model selector settings
---------
Co-authored-by: Bohdan Triapitsyn <artmore@protonmail.com>
Packaged desktop showed no sessions in 1.12.4. Root cause: the sanitized
session-list proxy path added in #1538 forwarded the renderer's
"authorization" header (the OpenChamber UI client token) to the managed
OpenCode upstream alongside the managed "Authorization" credential.
OpenCode does not recognize UI client tokens, so every session-list
request answered 401 — only in the packaged app, because only its
renderer (openchamber-ui:// origin) attaches a bearer token; dev web and
dev Electron run same-origin without one. The legacy http-proxy path
overwrote the header correctly, which is why everything except session
lists kept working.
Proxy fix:
- proxy-headers: filter the client "authorization" header out of
forwarded request headers; the OpenCode upstream must only ever see
its own managed credentials. Covered by tests.
Desktop cwd:
- electron: launch the managed OpenCode CLI from the user home instead
of app userData, matching upstream desktop behavior. userData-as-cwd
made OpenCode treat the app-data folder as a separate empty workspace.
Home directory poisoning loop:
- directoryPersistence: stop replaying localStorage homeDirectory
through synchronizeHomeDirectory on boot/auth resync. The persisted
value is only a boot-time cache; replaying it re-wrote stale values
(e.g. a project path) into desktop settings on every start, overriding
the authoritative /api/fs/home resolution.
- persistence: never overwrite an injected window.__OPENCHAMBER_HOME__
with a persisted value.
- useDirectoryStore: host switches happen in place (no reload), so
re-resolve home from the new runtime's /api/fs/home on endpoint
change instead of keeping the previous host's value.
- opencode client: only short-circuit to the injected desktop home when
the active runtime is local; remote runtimes ask /api/fs/home.
Settings hygiene:
- persistSettings: log field names only — change payloads can carry
credentials (UI password, client tokens, tunnel tokens) that must not
reach the log file; drop step-by-step log chatter.
- validateProjectEntries: only stat project paths when the incoming
update actually touches the projects list, not on every settings save.
- remove the write-only approvedDirectories setting everywhere and add
a migration that strips the stale key from persisted settings.
Tests:
- usePluginsStore.test: register an own runtime-fetch module mock so the
suite is independent of process-global mock.module leakage from other
files, and restore globalThis.fetch after the suite.
- persistence.test: clean up the window global created for the suite.
Add native macOS vibrancy behind the left sidebar (the only translucent
surface; header/chat/right sidebar stay opaque), plus a setting to turn it off.
- Window created with vibrancy applied after first show (avoids the cold-launch
no-composite quirk); minimize/restore suppress the frost during the genie
animation. Renderer frosts the sidebar via --sidebar-vibrancy-overlay once
data-oc-vibrancy[-ready] are set; project-actions pill matches when open.
- data-oc-vibrancy-ready defaults are set in cssGenerator (DOM guaranteed),
not the preload (document-start race left the sidebar un-frosted on launch).
- prefers-reduced-transparency falls back to solid surfaces.
- Appearance settings (macOS desktop only): a checkbox to enable/disable
vibrancy, persisted to settings.json and applied via a Save & restart button
(vibrancy is a window-creation option, so it needs a relaunch).
Electron updater now uses Electron release metadata only
Removed legacy Tauri package and migration workflow
Replaced Tauri shim usage with the desktop bridge
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.
Let users curate the draft welcome chips: pin existing commands and skills
as starters, remove them, and drag to reorder — all inline on the draft
screen via a '+' picker dialog and per-chip remove, with no separate
settings UI.
A starter references a command or skill; its scope is inherited from the
item (user-scope -> global, project-scope -> per-project). Global starters
persist to settings.json (useUIStore + client/server sanitizers); project
starters persist to the project config alongside worktree setup commands.
The two scopes form ordered namespaces shown global-first then project,
reorderable only within each group.
The six built-in Session magic-prompt commands are the default global set
and stay available in the picker for re-pinning if removed; they keep their
bespoke icons, while user commands/skills fall back to the Commands/Skills
section icons. Chip labels are normalized (/simplify-code -> 'Simplify
code'). Missing commands/skills are skipped rather than shown broken.
Drag-to-reorder works on desktop and mobile: rectSortingStrategy for the
wrapping multi-row layout, CSS.Translate (no scale) so the lifted chip
doesn't stretch, and MouseSensor + long-press TouchSensor so taps still
submit and swipes still scroll. The '+' picker is a searchable dialog on
every surface.
Add launch-at-startup support across the Electron desktop app and the web CLI.
Electron now supports macOS launch-at-login through the native login item API. Login launches start OpenChamber in the background without opening a window, while Dock activation, deep links, and second-instance launches still open or focus the normal app window. The desktop Settings UI now exposes a localized launch-at-login toggle in Desktop Network Access.
The web CLI now includes `openchamber startup status|enable|disable`, backed by native user services:
- macOS: launchd LaunchAgent
- Linux: systemd --user service
- Windows: Task Scheduler
Startup services run `openchamber serve --foreground` so the OS service manager owns process lifetime and restarts. Foreground service updates now defer restarts to the service manager instead of spawning duplicate CLI restarts.
Startup services snapshot useful environment variables by default so provider tokens, PATH, SSH agent settings, and OpenCode configuration survive login/reboot starts. The snapshot avoids shell/session-only state, uses systemd-compatible env quoting on Linux, and avoids unused env artifacts on macOS.
Also adds localized docs for startup services and environment variables.

(VSCode Copilot pattern), controlled by new `groupReasoningBlocks` store flag
- `ReasoningTimelineBlock` redesigned: chevron toggle, summary preview on
collapsed header, 'Thinking'/'Justification' label when expanded, BusyDots
while streaming, auto-scroll to bottom during live streaming
- Short texts (< 120 chars) render inline without a toggle
- Summary now strips markdown and truncates at a word boundary with ellipsis
- New `MergedReasoningPart` component merges all reasoning parts for a message
into one block at the position of the first reasoning part
- `defaultExpanded` prop lets callers override initial expand state
- Remove `.thinking-dot` CSS animation (replaced by BusyDots component)
- Fix reasoning markdown font-size: use `--text-markdown` instead of `--text-meta`
* refactor(ui): scope working phrases inside useAssistantStatus and simplify reasoning status
- Move WORKING_PHRASES array and getRandomWorkingPhrase() inside the hook
so they are no longer exported (were only consumed by ReasoningPart which
no longer needs them)
- Change the 'reasoning' activity status text from a random working phrase
to the deterministic string 'thinking' — matches the new UI label
* test(ui): expand ReasoningPart tests for new collapsible and summary behavior
- Update baseline test to use text long enough to trigger the collapsible
path (short texts now render inline) and assert on the correct aria markup
- Add test for 'Justification' label when pre-expanded via defaultExpanded
- Add test for 'Thinking' label for the thinking variant when expanded
- Add test verifying summary is a word-boundary-truncated excerpt ending with
an ellipsis character
* i18n: rename 'Reasoning Traces' to 'Thinking Blocks' and add thought key
- Rename settings label from 'Show Reasoning Traces' → 'Show Thinking Blocks'
across all supported locales (en, es, ko, pl, pt-BR, uk, zh-CN)
- Add `chat.reasoningTrace.thought` key to all locales (used by merged
reasoning block header in completed state)
* feat(ui): add collapsibleThinkingBlocks setting with full persistence wiring
- New boolean store field `collapsibleThinkingBlocks` (default true) with
`setCollapsibleThinkingBlocks` action; persisted to localStorage
- Threaded through DesktopSettings, SettingsPayload (API types), desktop
persistence (sanitize + apply), web appearance persistence, appearance
auto-save watcher, and server-side settings-helpers sanitize/format
- Server defaults to true when the field is absent in formatSettingsResponse
- MessageBody reads the flag: false → render reasoning as plain AssistantTextPart;
true → existing collapsible/merged block path
* feat(settings): expose Collapsible Reasoning Blocks toggle in visual settings
Add a checkbox under the 'Show Thinking Blocks' row (visible only when
showReasoningTraces is enabled) that toggles the collapsibleThinkingBlocks
preference. Follows the existing toggle pattern: div role=button, keyboard
handler for Enter/Space, Checkbox primitive, aria-pressed attribute.
* i18n: revert showReasoningTraces label rename and add collapsibleThinkingBlocks strings
- Revert 'Show Reasoning Traces' → 'Show Thinking Blocks' rename (the
collapsibleThinkingBlocks toggle is now a separate control, so the parent
label stays as 'Reasoning Traces' for clarity)
- Add `collapsibleThinkingBlocks` / `collapsibleThinkingBlocksAria` strings
across all seven supported locales (en, es, ko, pl, pt-BR, uk, zh-CN)
* test(server): add settings-helpers coverage for collapsibleThinkingBlocks
- Verify sanitizeSettingsUpdate accepts boolean true/false and rejects
non-boolean values (string, number)
- Verify formatSettingsResponse forwards the value correctly for both true
and false, and defaults to true when the field is absent
* fix(ui): respect defaultExpanded prop and remove dead alwaysShowActions from ReasoningTimelineBlock
The useEffect on [isStreaming] was firing on mount and immediately calling
setIsExpanded(false) (since isStreaming is false for completed blocks),
overriding any defaultExpanded={true} passed by callers. The fix uses a
prevIsStreamingRef so the effect only collapses the block on a true→false
transition and is a no-op on initial mount.
Also removes alwaysShowActions from ReasoningTimelineBlockProps — the new
header design always shows the chevron, making the prop obsolete. The prop
was already absent from the component destructuring (a dead type entry) and
was silently ignored at runtime. Removed it from ReasoningPartProps,
MergedReasoningPartProps, and the two call-sites in MessageBody as well.
* chore: remove unused reasoningpresentation module and test
* fix(ui): polish collapsible reasoning block UI

- Add local Whisper STT via Transformers.js with Web Worker (no UI freeze)
- Default sttProvider to 'local' in Electron (browser STT unavailable)
- Fix infinite toast loop: stop auto-restart on network errors
- Add retry limit with exponential backoff for transient STT errors
- Append voice transcript to input field (append-inline), not replace
- Add model catalog with download/load button in Voice Settings
Add dedicated Electron Mini Chat windows for focused chat sessions without the full desktop shell. Mini Chat can open existing sessions or draft sessions, supports pinning above other windows, transfers sessions or drafts back to the main window, and deduplicates existing-session windows.
Expose Mini Chat entry points from the main header, session sidebar, command palette, and `mod+alt+n`. Add a dedicated Vite entry and React runtime so the compact surface can stay isolated from full-app chrome while still sharing chat, sync, theme, locale, model, agent, and worktree behavior.
Keep Mini Chat behavior scoped to the compact surface:
- limit assistant/user message actions to the appropriate Mini Chat set
- hide workspace changed-files UI in Mini Chat
- keep draft worktree selection and streaming directory state in sync
- mark sessions viewed while they are open in Mini Chat
- support Mini Chat-specific keyboard shortcuts for input focus, model selection, thinking variant cycling, favorite model cycling, and opening new Mini Chat drafts
Harden Electron integration by gating Mini Chat controls on desktop IPC availability, restricting pin/unpin IPC to Mini Chat windows, and only closing Mini Chat after the main window handoff succeeds.
* feat: add 'Open files in preview mode' setting
- Add defaultFileViewerPreview setting to persist user preference for file viewer default mode
- Add checkbox in Settings → Sessions → Session Defaults to toggle the setting
- Files now open in preview mode by default when setting is enabled
- Respects per-file-type localStorage persistence for markdown/HTML/JSON files
- Setting persists across sessions via /api/config/settings endpoint
* fix: address PR review feedback
- FilesView: respect HTML localStorage preference in file-change effect,
falling back to global setting only when nothing stored
- DefaultsSettings: read defaultFileViewerPreview directly from config store
instead of redundant local state + separate fetch
- DefaultsSettings: extract duplicated toggle logic into
handleToggleFileViewerPreview callback
* fix: honor default preview setting for markdown files
Previously mdViewMode only read localStorage on mount (deps: []), so
when settingsDefaultFileViewerPreview was enabled and no MD_VIEWER_MODE_KEY
was stored, markdown files silently opened in edit mode — ignoring the
setting for the very file type users most want to preview.
Fold md init into the per-file-change effect, mirroring the html handling:
localStorage preference wins, falling back to the setting-derived default.
The saveMdViewMode callback stays untouched so user-initiated toggles
still persist.

* feat(electron): scaffold Electron desktop package
Main + preload + ssh manager, packaging scripts, icons, root build/lint/type-check wiring.
* feat(ui): add Electron runtime detection and desktopNative facade
isElectronShell via window.__OPENCHAMBER_ELECTRON__, isDesktopShell now covers both. desktopNative wraps window/title/theme calls so UI avoids direct Tauri imports. revealDesktopPath added.
* refactor(ui): route window/title/theme/export through desktopNative
SessionSidebar, MultiRunLauncher, useWindowTitle, ThemeSystemContext, exportSession drop direct @tauri-apps imports.
* refactor(ui): treat all desktop shells uniformly
device.ts switches Tauri-only checks to isDesktopShell. Header OpenInApp button uses actionDirectory so it falls back to the active project path.
* fix(ui): menu Copy clipboard fallback and softer sidebar tint
useMenuActions falls back to Clipboard API for the native Copy action when the page doesn't intercept. cssGenerator lowers sidebar strong/soft alpha so the tinted surface reads gentler.
* chore(electron): mirror Tauri build/type-check script shape
build script becomes no-op so root 'bun run build' skips packaging. Syntax validation (node --check) moves into type-check. electron:build root script still runs full sidecar+bundle+electron-builder.
* fix(electron): sync app identity, preload path, boot outcome, dev entry
Read version from packages/electron/package.json so 'electron ./main.mjs' dev entry reports the app version instead of Electron's. Bump electron package to 1.9.6 for workspace parity.
Resolve preload via app.getAppPath() in prod (bundle lives in dist-bundle while preload.mjs ships at app root).
Compute and inject __OPENCHAMBER_DESKTOP_BOOT_OUTCOME__ in main + preload so the loading gate dismisses (mirrors Tauri Rust injection).
Dev entry uses ./main.mjs to bypass the stale dist-bundle so source edits apply.
* refactor(open-in-app): split directory and file flows
Header button now opens the project/worktree directory only — drop activeFilePath prop and its Header prop passthrough. FilesView editor dropdown opens the active file only via new openDesktopFileInApp.
Electron main.mjs mirrors Tauri's open-chain logic: buildOpenProjectSpecs (finder/terminal direct, vscode-like via CLI -n, JetBrains via open -na --args) and buildOpenFileSpecs (finder -R reveal, terminal opens parent dir, editors via CLI or open -a). runSpecChain falls through specs until one exits 0.
* fix(files-view): keep floating toolbar mounted while its dropdowns are open
Portalled Base UI menu popups render outside floatingToolbarRef. The document mousedown listener and onMouseLeave collapsed the toolbar as soon as the popup appeared, unmounting the DropdownMenu root and swallowing clicks on its items. Track open dropdowns via onOpenChange and skip the collapse while count > 0; also ignore mousedowns that land inside a dropdown-menu-content/item.
* feat(electron): add quit confirmation with risk poller
Mirrors Tauri's macOS-only behavior: poll /api/openchamber/scheduled-tasks/status and /api/openchamber/tunnel/status every 5s. If active tunnel or running/enabled scheduled tasks are detected, Cmd+Q / dock Quit / menu Quit shows a native warning dialog listing reasons; otherwise quit proceeds silently.
performConfirmedQuit persists window state, kills sidecar, shuts down SSH, and fires a 1500ms unref'd safety timeout that calls app.exit(0) if the normal quit sequence stalls.
* feat(notifications): fix payload parsing, restore-on-click, session deep-link
Normalize input so both sidecar stdout path (flat) and UI IPC path ({ payload: {...} }) work; previous destructuring missed requireHidden (camelCase) and the payload wrapper so notifications showed with empty body.
Click handler restores the window if minimized, shows it if hidden, and focuses. When the notification payload carries sessionId, emit openchamber:open-session which the App listener routes to setCurrentSession — matches the PWA service-worker deep-link behavior. macOS notifications now also use sound 'Glass' for parity with Tauri.
* chore(electron): bump to Electron 41 + latest updater/context-menu
electron ^38.2.0 -> ^41.2.1
electron-updater ^6.6.2 -> ^6.8.3
electron-context-menu ^4.0.4 -> ^4.1.2
Dev boot verified: main process starts, preload exposes globals, API server + quit risk poller + autoUpdater all initialize without errors.
* fix: keep todo row alignment stable when expanding text
Keep checkbox and action buttons vertically centered in collapsed todo rows
Prevent first todo line from shifting when expanding to multiple lines
* fix: make commit highlights visible and input behavior reliable
Switch commit message field to native textarea for predictable auto-resize
Fix AI highlights append flow so inserted text is applied consistently
Make chat scroll-to-bottom control fully circular
* style: increase chat bubble corner radius consistency
Use larger radius for user chat message bubbles
Match chat input container radius to user message styling
* feat(electron): adopt OpenCode playbook improvements
mac: hardenedRuntime + entitlements.mac.plist + notarize + dmg.sign for Apple notarization parity.
single-instance lock + openchamber:// protocol with session/project/host routing (host switch done fully in main via activateMainWindow).
setAppUserModelId for Win toast identity; proxy-bypass-list switch; chdir(homedir) for Finder-launch cwd safety.
shell env probe (\$SHELL -il -> -l) merged into sidecar spawn; PATH deduped.
electron-log with 5MB rotation + 7-day cleanup; autoUpdater.logger wired; startup info log.
webContents zoom locked to 1 (zoom-changed + did-finish-load).
UI: openchamber:open-project -> useDirectoryStore.setDirectory.
* fix(electron): make bootOutcome mutable across re-navigation + project deep-link
host deep-link used to land on chooser because contextBridge exposed bootOutcome as read-only; initScript re-assignment became a silent no-op. drop preload's contextBridge for bootOutcome, inject it via main-world initScript, and move injection from did-finish-load to dom-ready so it lands before React mounts.
project deep-link updated currentDirectory only; activeProjectId stayed stale so the sidebar didn't highlight the new project. switch to projectsStore.setActiveProject (or addProject for new paths) which updates both.
add log.info around deep-link dispatch + host switch for diagnostics.
* fix(electron): desktop_hosts_set IPC args + persist initialHostChoiceCompleted + re-eval bootOutcome
UI calls invoke('desktop_hosts_set', { input: {...} }) but main was reading args.config — every onboarding 'i've completed installation' / host-dialog save wrote nothing, so desktopDefaultHostId stayed null and the chooser screen looped forever.
also:
- writeDesktopHostsConfig now persists desktopInitialHostChoiceCompleted so the tauri-compat flag survives writes.
- readDesktopHostsConfig returns initialHostChoiceCompleted so the UI-side config mirror is complete.
- after writing hosts, recompute state.bootOutcome + state.initScript; a subsequent window.location.reload() picks up target=local/status=ok via dom-ready injection without needing a full app restart.
- app.setName('OpenChamber') early (pre log.initialize) so electron-log logs land in ~/Library/Logs/OpenChamber/ instead of the package-derived '@openchamber/electron' path.
* chore(electron): rename appId to dev.openchamber.desktop
ai.opencode.* is the OpenCode team's reverse-DNS namespace; OpenChamber should not squat there. now that we're on Electron, drop the tauri-era inherited identifier and claim our own under openchamber.dev.
user-facing productName stays "OpenChamber". tauri identifier left as-is — legacy shell on the way out.
* feat(ci): add electron build+notarize+publish jobs to release workflow
three new jobs in release.yml, running in parallel with tauri:
- build-desktop-electron-macos: matrix(arm64, x86_64) on macos-26; installs Developer ID via keychain, runs build:sidecar + bundle:main + electron-builder --mac --arch <> --publish=never (with APPLE_ID / APPLE_APP_SPECIFIC_PASSWORD / APPLE_TEAM_ID env mapped from existing secrets). verifies hardened runtime, stapled notary ticket, required entitlements. uploads DMG/ZIP/blockmaps to the release and emits per-arch latest-mac.yml as a GH artifact.
- combine-electron-manifests: downloads latest-yml-*-apple-darwin artifacts, runs the existing finalize-latest-yml.mjs to merge per-arch files entries into a single latest-mac.yml, uploads combined yml to the release.
- finalize-release: now also waits on the two new jobs before flipping the draft release to published.
also: explicit artifactName in electron-builder config so arm64 and x64 dmg/zip never collide.
electron-updater in main.mjs (setFeedURL btriapitsyn/openchamber) fetches this latest-mac.yml on desktop_check_for_updates; downloadUpdate / quitAndInstall wire through our existing IPC handlers unchanged.
* docs: future-agent brief for tauri -> electron auto-update cutover
self-contained plan for the one-shot migration release that carries existing tauri installs into the electron shell via tauri's updater. written so a fresh agent with no branch context can execute it.
covers: the trick (repackage signed electron .app as a tauri tarball, minisign with existing TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY), workflow surgery on release.yml, rollback plan, validation steps against a real tauri install, and edge cases (CFBundleIdentifier change, notification perms re-prompt, deep-link re-registration).
* docs: soften framing of cutover playbook (no user-shaming)
* chore: mark electron as primary desktop shell; tune dmg installer window
AGENTS.md: explicit note that new desktop work lands in packages/electron/, packages/desktop/ (tauri) is maintenance-only until the cutover described in docs/TAURI_TO_ELECTRON_CUTOVER.md. updated runtime/entry-points/build-commands sections accordingly.
electron/package.json build.dmg: cleaner title ("OpenChamber 1.9.6" without -arch suffix), 660x400 window matching the tauri layout users are used to, icon size 128, explicit app/Applications positions.
* refactor(web): drop bun-specific runtime deps from server
- 11 test files migrated bun:test -> vitest; API (describe/it/expect) is drop-in; all 73 tests pass under vitest run.
- bun:sqlite -> better-sqlite3 in git/service.js::syncSandboxesToOpenCodeDb. api shift is db.query().get()/run() -> db.prepare().get()/run().
- add "test": "vitest run" script in packages/web.
no production code used Bun.* APIs; server is Express-on-Node already. this commit removes the remaining bun-runtime shape so the server module can be imported and booted inside an electron main process.
* feat(electron): boot web server in-process, drop sidecar subprocess
the electron main process now imports @openchamber/web/server/index.js as a workspace dependency and calls startWebUiServer({...}) directly. the returned handle exposes getPort() / stop() and the notification emitter takes an onDesktopNotification callback, so we no longer spawn a bun-compiled sidecar binary and no longer parse stdout for the one-line notify protocol.
- packages/electron/package.json: +@openchamber/web (workspace:*); extraResources drops 'sidecar'; build:sidecar script renamed to build:web-assets (kept the vite build step, dropped the bun compile step).
- packages/electron/main.mjs: remove spawn/kill-stale-sidecar/sidecar path resolver/stdout-prefix parser; rewrite spawnLocalServer to probe a free port (stored | DEFAULT_DESKTOP_PORT | OS-assigned) then import server and await startWebUiServer; killSidecar calls handle.stop({ exitProcess: false }); hoist user shell env (PATH, etc.) onto process.env once so opencode / git / rg children still inherit the expected runtime environment.
- packages/web/server/lib/notifications/emitter-runtime.js: accept an onDesktopNotification callback (late-bindable via setOnDesktopNotification). when set, notifications are dispatched through the callback instead of process.stdout; tauri path still uses stdout when no callback is bound.
- packages/web/server/index.js: main() wires options.onDesktopNotification to notificationEmitterRuntime.setOnDesktopNotification.
- release.yml + AGENTS.md updated for the new script name + runtime shape.
payoff: -300ms cold start on mac, single process in activity monitor, no stdio IPC, no bun binary in the packaged app. tauri sidecar path is untouched.
* build(electron): rebuild native deps explicitly, bump electron-builder
the previous build failed because electron-builder 24.13.3 tried to run \`bun rebuild\` on native deps (better-sqlite3, node-pty) and bun has no rebuild subcommand; it also couldn't find prebuild-install because bun hoists under node_modules/.bun/<pkg>@<ver>/ and never populates node_modules/.bin for transitive deps.
fix:
- bump electron-builder devDep to ^26, whose packageManager detection understands bun workspace layouts.
- add @electron/rebuild devDep + scripts/rebuild-native.mjs. the script rebuilds better-sqlite3 / node-pty / bun-pty against the installed electron version before electron-builder is invoked.
- set build.npmRebuild=false so electron-builder no longer attempts its own broken PM-based rebuild.
- package script: build:web-assets -> bundle:main -> rebuild:native -> electron-builder.
verified: CSC_IDENTITY_AUTO_DISCOVERY=false bun run electron:build produces signed-ad-hoc dmg/zip/blockmap/latest-mac.yml; artifacts land under packages/electron/dist as expected. cold-start from Applications should work (native bindings now match electron 41 node ABI).
* fix(electron): externalize web server + native deps from main bundle
the ESM bundle was statically inlining @openchamber/web transitively, which pulled in bun-pty/src/terminal.ts with its top-level \`import { dlopen } from "bun:ffi"\`. node's ESM loader parses every static import when the bundle loads, so the bun:ffi scheme crashed the packaged app at startup with ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ESM_URL_SCHEME — the runtime guard (if (globalThis.Bun) { await import('bun-pty') }) never got a chance to skip it.
fix: bundle-main.mjs marks @openchamber/web (+ its bun-pty / node-pty / better-sqlite3 transitives) as external. the dynamic \`await import('@openchamber/web/server/index.js')\` in main.mjs stays a runtime resolution; the conditional bun-pty import stays dynamic; native modules load from node_modules via the standard resolver.
* perf(web): classify UI-only deps as devDependencies, shrink packaged app
packages/web is a hybrid package: server code in server/, react UI source in src/, compiled UI output in dist/. the server serves dist/ as static files — it never imports react/radix/codemirror/etc. at runtime. but electron-builder, npm install, and similar tools treat everything under "dependencies" as shipping surface, so all of react + @radix-ui/* + @codemirror/* + @fontsource/* + @simplewebauthn/browser + cmdk + ghostty-web + ... were landing in app.asar even though the same code is already baked into dist/ chunks.
move ~24 UI-only packages to devDependencies. vite + its plugins still install them in dev (bun install fetches devDependencies in workspaces), so \`bun run build\` is unchanged. consumers doing \`npm install @openchamber/web\` no longer pull ~150MB of unused browser-side modules.
measured on aarch64 darwin build:
- app.asar: 281MB -> 44MB (-237MB, -84%)
- .dmg: 320MB -> 132MB (-59%)
- .zip: 305MB -> 129MB (-58%)
verified type-check, ui build, 73 vitest tests, packaged launch.
* chore(electron): center dmg installer icons, use cream brand background
dmg-builder 26 ignored our previous dmg.contents positions against its template background (they stayed at template coords, producing misalignment with the drawn arrow). switch to a solid backgroundColor (#FFFCF0, the splash light tone) so the template image is dropped entirely and our coordinates are authoritative. window tuned to 540x340, iconSize 100, iconTextSize 13.
dmgbuild treats contents coordinates as icon *centers* (not top-left), so with iconSize=100 in a 540 window, x=180 and x=360 place left and right clusters with equal 130px gaps on both sides of the window. y=140 vertically centres the icon+label pair.
* fix(electron): eliminate main-thread freezes in in-process server
Three blocking paths were running sync work on the Electron main event
loop, causing multi-second UI freezes under the new in-process server:
- package-manager.detectPackageManagerDetails fired spawnSync(pnpm/npm/
yarn/bun bin -g) with 10s timeouts. In desktop runtime PM detection is
pointless (app is .app bundle, updates via electron-updater) — short-
circuit when OPENCHAMBER_RUNTIME=desktop. This was the ~5s freeze.
- buildInstalledApps iterated 22 OPEN_IN_APPS × spawnSync(mdfind, sips).
Converted to execFile promises so child waits yield to the loop.
- orphan-project-file recovery re-scanned disk on every settings read
(3+/s from fs/list/etc). Cache the outcome per process lifetime.
Also: resolveProjectDirectory prefers settings.lastDirectory over
activeProjectId so file-open from sidebar/chat doesn't 400 with
"Path is outside of active workspace" after the user navigates.
Plus dropdown typeahead fixes in DesktopHostSwitcher/BranchSelector:
stopPropagation on input keys so cmdk doesn't swallow typing.
* feat(electron): restore desktop LAN access for in-process server
spawnLocalServer now reads settings.desktopLanAccessEnabled and binds
on 0.0.0.0 when enabled, so phones/tablets on the same Wi-Fi can open
the app via http://<lan-ip>:<port>. Adds desktop_get_lan_address IPC
(UDP-connect route lookup with networkInterfaces fallback) for the
settings UI to show the reachable URL.
UI and settings plumbing already existed from the sidecar build; only
the Electron main-process wiring was missing.
* chore: added electron package to version bump script
* fix(electron): address PR review — harden IPC surface + polish
P1 security:
- Gate openchamber:invoke and openchamber:dialog:open by webContents
origin. Only local (loopback / dev file://) senders can call desktop_*.
Blocks remote hosts loaded via DesktopHostSwitcher from reading local
files, opening apps, relaunching, etc.
- desktop_read_file now refuses paths outside $HOME / tmpdir and denies
.ssh/.aws/.gnupg/.config/gh/credentials + .env/.pem/.key by name
(defense-in-depth behind the origin gate).
P2:
- webPreferences.sandbox:false: add comment explaining preload needs Node
(contextBridge+ipcRenderer) and why flipping to true would break IPC.
- desktop_set_vibrancy: comment the intentional no-op (no Electron
equivalent for the Tauri NSVisualEffectView path), drop requiresRestart.
- desktopNative.ts: replace isTauriShell() guards with isDesktopShell()
so the semantics match (previous check worked only because Electron
preload exposes a __TAURI__ shim).
- AGENTS.md: correct entry description — server runs in-process, not as
a sidecar subprocess.
* fix(electron): stop leaking desktop shell APIs to remote renderer pages
Preload was exposing __TAURI__ and __OPENCHAMBER_ELECTRON__ unconditionally,
so after DesktopHostSwitcher navigated the window to a remote OpenChamber
instance the remote UI saw isDesktopShell() === true and tried to invoke
desktop_* IPC. The main-process origin gate then threw "IPC not available
for this origin", surfacing as a user-visible error on the onboarding
screen of the remote.
Preload re-runs on cross-origin navigation; compute current origin up
front and only expose the shell globals + the openchamber:emit listener
when the document is loopback / state.localOrigin / file://. Remote
pages now look like a plain web runtime — no IPC path to reject.
* fix(electron): restore remote UI shell integration via per-command gate
Previous commit stripped __TAURI__ / __OPENCHAMBER_ELECTRON__ from remote
pages wholesale, which broke DesktopHostSwitcher for anyone switched to
a remote instance: no hosts list, "Unknown" probe status, open-in-new-
window dead. Also lost window chrome affordances that the remote UI
needs to render correctly inside the Electron shell.
Switch from an origin-level gate to a per-command allowlist:
- preload.mjs exposes __TAURI__ and __OPENCHAMBER_ELECTRON__ on every
page (shell identity + IPC channel). __OPENCHAMBER_LOCAL_ORIGIN__ and
__OPENCHAMBER_MACOS_MAJOR__ also go everywhere since HostSwitcher and
window chrome depend on them and neither grants capability.
__OPENCHAMBER_HOME__ stays local-only (leaks the OS username and is
misleading if consumed as a workspace hint on a remote page).
- main.mjs ipcMain.handle accepts a curated COMMANDS_SAFE_FOR_REMOTE set
(hosts_get, host_probe, new_window, new_window_at_url, set_window_*,
is_window_fullscreen, start_window_drag, get_app_version,
get_lan_address). Filesystem, shell.openPath, installed-apps scans,
app relaunch, auto-update, hosts_set, dialog:open, read_file stay
local-only — remote UI doesn't need them and can't weaponize them.
* ci(release): rebuild native modules against Electron ABI before packaging
Electron job skipped rebuild:native so bun install's Node-ABI builds of
better-sqlite3/node-pty/bun-pty shipped into the asar — packaged app
would crash on require. Local bun run package runs the step via
scripts/rebuild-native.mjs (npmRebuild is disabled in package.json);
mirror it in CI and pass ELECTRON_BUILDER_ARCH so the x64 matrix
cross-builds from the arm64 runner.
Tauri job untouched — both builds continue to produce side-by-side
release artifacts (latest.json for Tauri, latest-mac.yml for Electron)
so each shell's updater finds its own manifest.
* ci(release): split Electron arm64/x64 onto native macOS runners
Both Electron matrix entries were running on macos-26 (arm64) and
cross-building x64 from there. Works for Rust/Tauri; brittle for
native Node modules — better-sqlite3, node-pty, bun-pty (with its
rust-pty crate) each have their own cross-target quirks.
Pin arm64 → macos-14 and x64 → macos-13 so node-gyp and
@electron/rebuild build against the host arch. ELECTRON_BUILDER_ARCH
now just mirrors the runner for clarity.
* Revert "ci(release): split Electron arm64/x64 onto native macOS runners"
This reverts commit f217880e49609cf1418818af0f837b333dbb6f42.
* ci(test-build): add Electron DMG job to arm64 dispatch workflow
Parallel job to the existing Tauri DMG builder, same runner + Apple
cert path. Mirrors the release workflow steps (build:web-assets,
bundle:main, rebuild:native, electron-builder) so maintainers can
smoke-test a signed+notarized Electron DMG before merging.
* ci: use electron-builder v26 boolean arch flags
v26 dropped --arch <name> in favour of per-arch booleans (--arm64,
--x64, etc.). Test build was failing at dispatch time; release job
had the same bug latent. Switch both to the supported form.
* fix(electron): route external links to the system browser
<a href> clicks and window.open calls with non-local URLs were loading
inside the Electron BrowserWindow (or spawning a second Electron window
as a makeshift browser). Add an origin-aware navigation guard to each
window: loopback / state.localOrigin / configured desktop hosts keep
their existing in-window behaviour (HostSwitcher, in-window probes);
everything else hands off to shell.openExternal so http/https links
open in the user's default browser.
Move session export into the sidebar menu
Add desktop save-and-reveal flow for exported markdown
Show empty-state UI instead of a loading skeleton for empty sessions
