## 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
* feat: added themes system
* feat: smart sidebar auto-hide for files/diff tabs + lower files sidebar threshold
* feat: added Checkbox component and update theming
- Add reusable Checkbox component for toggles across UI
- Replace several inputs with Checkbox in settings and commands panels
- Add DiffIcon and apply surface/border theming to key UI areas
* feat: Add convert-vscode-theme.cjs to convert VS Code themes to OpenChamber format
* refactor: remove unused permission logic from ChatInput
- Remove unused permission rules parsing logic from ChatInput
- Memoize renderTheme in DiffWorkerProvider to avoid unnecessary recalculations
- Remove forceOpaque helper in vscode theme adapter
* fix: guard VSCode theme loading in MarkdownRenderer
* feat: add custom user themes loading and reload
- Load user themes from ~/.config/openchamber/themes at runtime
- Expose /api/config/themes to fetch custom themes
- Allow theme reloading from Settings → Theme → Reload themes in the UI
Add SDK-based worktree management that lists and starts SDK worktrees
Migrate per-project setup to ~/.config/openchamber/<projectId>.json
Deprecate .openchamber legacy paths and adapt UI to new config
* Stability and performance improvements. (#1)
## Changelog
### Performance Improvements
- **perf: make terminal creation cwd check async (#9)**
Replaced synchronous `fs.existsSync` with `fs.promises.access` in the terminal creation handler to prevent blocking the event loop.
Improves throughput under high load.
- **perf: optimize fuzzyMatchScore by avoiding redundant lowercasing (#8)**
Renamed `fuzzyMatchScore` to `fuzzyMatchScoreNormalized` and updated it to accept a pre-lowercased query, avoiding repeated string allocations.
Updated the call site in `searchFilesystemFiles`.
~25% search performance improvement on large datasets.
- **perf: use async file read in update-install handler (#7)**
Replaced `fs.readFileSync` with `await fs.promises.readFile` to avoid blocking the event loop.
**Benchmark (10k ops):**
- Sync: ~95ms (blocking)
- Async: ~1124ms (non-blocking)
Higher per-call overhead, but better server responsiveness.
- **perf(server): optimize mkdir endpoint with async fs (#6)**
Replaced `fs.mkdirSync` with `await fsPromises.mkdir` in `/api/fs/mkdir`.
Prevents event-loop blocking and improves concurrent performance.
**Result:** ~2× throughput improvement (100 concurrent requests).
- **perf: parallelize fs checks in validateProjectEntries (#4)**
Replaced serial `for...of` with `Promise.all + map`.
Reduced validation time for 500 projects from ~110ms to ~20ms (~5× speedup).
- **perf: cache getLoginShellPath result to avoid blocking event loop (#5)**
Cached `getLoginShellPath` result to avoid repeated `spawnSync` calls (~400ms each).
Subsequent calls reduced to <1ms.

### Server Fixes
- **fix(server): use async check for terminal restart endpoint (#3)**
Replaced `fs.existsSync` with `fs.promises.stat` in `/api/terminal/:sessionId/restart`.
