* feat(chat): live markdown source-mode highlighting in composer
Highlight markdown syntax, fenced code blocks, and mention-style tokens
directly in the chat input via the existing transparent-textarea overlay
(color/decoration/background only, so caret alignment is preserved).
- Markdown source-mode: inline/fenced code, links, headings, blockquotes,
list markers, with dimmed syntax punctuation
- Per-language syntax highlighting inside fenced blocks, reusing the editor's
CodeMirror language resolver + Lezer (bash/js/ts/json/html/css/python/md);
highlighted blocks use a neutral base, plain fences keep the code color
- Token highlighting on match: @file, @agent, /command, /skill, #snippet
- Auto-pairing: wrap selection with markers, triple-backtick expands to a
fenced block; paste a URL over a selection to form a markdown link
- Add md/markdown to the shared code-block language resolver
* fix(chat): address composer highlight review
- Tilde (~~~) fenced blocks now get per-language syntax highlighting
- Share fence open/close detection between tokenizeMarkdown and
highlightFencedCode so they agree on boundaries (fence length + format),
fixing range bleed with 4-backtick fences and ```lang lines inside blocks
- Replace buildHighlightParts O(segments x ranges) scan with a sweep-line
over an active set (verified equivalent vs the prior algorithm across 30k
randomized cases, including overlaps and explicit class/priority)
- Cap per-block Lezer parsing at 20k chars; oversized blocks keep the neutral
code base without per-token coloring
* docs: add OpenChamber feature docs and translations
Add 30 new docs pages covering OpenChamber-specific workflows and setup:
OpenCode server, providers/models/agents, MCP, skills, commands & snippets,
usage, projects, context, notes/todos/plans, scheduled tasks, project actions,
preview, worktrees, multi-run, git & GitHub, magic prompts, git identities,
mobile/PWA, security, notifications, voice, project icons, remote instances,
desktop browser, updates, and three troubleshooting pages.
Rebuild sidebar into eight task-oriented sections and translate every new
page into all six supported locales (uk, zh-cn, es, pt-br, ko, pl).
* docs: surface new sections on homepage and cross-link tunnels
Add an Explore block to the docs homepage (all seven locales) linking to
the new section anchors, and cross-link the Tunnels page to Security and
PWA & Mobile.
* perf(server): cache deterministic git rev-parse reads in fs exec route
A fresh client (e.g. immediately after a page reload) has an empty git
store and re-resolves every project's root from scratch, firing identical
`git rev-parse --absolute-git-dir` / `--git-common-dir` lookups against
`/api/fs/exec`. Each spawns a git subprocess server-side, so re-opening a
workspace recomputes everything.
Add a small TTL cache for an allowlist of deterministic, side-effect-free
git plumbing path queries, keyed by `(resolvedCwd, command)`:
- Only `git rev-parse` path lookups (absolute-git-dir, git-common-dir,
show-toplevel) are cacheable; any other command — including any non-git
command — always executes and is never stored.
- Only successful results are cached (failures may be transient).
- TTL is configurable via OPENCHAMBER_GIT_READ_CACHE_TTL_MS (default 30s,
0 disables). The git directory layout is effectively static while the
app runs, so a short TTL safely absorbs the post-reload burst.
- Expired entries are pruned alongside exec jobs.
Complements the client-side root-resolution cache: that one collapses the
in-session N² cascade, this one absorbs the cold-start burst on reload.
Adds tests covering cache hit, per-cwd keying, non-allowlisted commands,
failed-result bypass and the disable switch.
* fix(server): bound git-read cache with count + byte limits; test TTL expiry
Per the project caching policy (AGENTS.md: cap in-memory caches with both
count and byte limits), the git-read cache was unbounded between prunes.
Add dual-constraint LRU eviction (500 entries / 1MB, oldest-first) with
recency refresh on cache hits. Add tests for TTL expiry (fake timers) and
count-cap eviction.
* fix(server): dedupe in-flight git read cache hits
* perf(git): cache project-root resolution to stop N² polling cascade
Opening a workspace with many projects/worktrees fired hundreds of
`POST /api/fs/exec` requests (e.g. ~700 for 19 projects) within seconds,
dominated by repeated `git rev-parse --absolute-git-dir` /
`--git-common-dir` for the same directories.
Root cause: in `useProjectRepoStatus`, each project's `ensureStatus`
settles independently and mutates the git store, which re-derives
`projectGitBranchesKey` and re-runs `getRootBranch` for *all* projects on
every change. `getRootBranch` had no caching, so this produced an N×N
burst of uncached git plumbing calls.
Changes:
- worktreeStatus: extract `resolveProjectRoot` to module scope with a
60s TTL cache + in-flight dedupe (root resolution is static within a
session). Combine the two `rev-parse` queries into one subprocess.
Add `getRootBranch(dir, { knownBranch })` fast-path that skips a
redundant git status when the directory is its own root, while still
resolving the primary-root branch correctly for linked worktrees.
Export `invalidateResolvedProjectRootCache`.
- useProjectRepoStatus: replace the cascade effect with a debounced,
diff-based pass that only resolves projects that are new or whose
branch actually changed, passing the known branch through.
- worktreeManager: invalidate the root cache on worktree create/remove.
- Add unit tests for caching, dedupe, invalidation, rev-parse
precedence, non-git fallback, linked-worktree resolution and the
knownBranch fast-path.
Reduces startup from hundreds of requests to roughly one root
resolution per project.
* fix(git): clear in-flight resolves and guard write-back on cache invalidation
`invalidateResolvedProjectRootCache` cleared `resolvedRootCache` but left
`inFlightRootResolves` intact, so during a worktree topology change a
resolution already in flight could (1) be handed to callers arriving after
invalidation and (2) re-seed the cache with the pre-invalidation root when it
settled, defeating invalidation for up to the full TTL.
Drop the in-flight entry on invalidation and add an epoch guard so a resolve
that was invalidated mid-flight does not write its now-stale result back.
Add a regression test for the concurrent-invalidation scenario.
* fix(git): bound root cache and avoid early sidebar resolves
Add a Voice & Style section to the docs authoring guide, then bring every

Replace the prompt-template workflow with snippet support that is compatible with opencode snippet conventions. Snippets are now stored and loaded from global and project snippet directories, including legacy pluralized paths, with frontmatter metadata for aliases and descriptions. Snippet expansion supports recursive references plus prepend and append sections, while inject sections are treated as unsupported no-ops so OpenChamber remains compatible without requiring an external plugin.
Add the snippets settings experience and remove the old prompt-template settings surface. The new settings page and sidebar support creating, editing, deleting, selecting, and describing snippets, with localized copy across every supported locale. The settings navigation now exposes Snippets with a dedicated icon and metadata.
Wire snippets into all prompt-entry surfaces that need them. Chat, multi-run groups, and scheduled task prompts now offer hash-trigger snippet autocomplete and expand snippets before sending work to OpenCode. Chat also uses an adaptive compact placeholder on mobile or narrow composer widths so helper trigger guidance stays readable in constrained layouts.
Keep multi-run aligned with grouped prompts. Multi-run sessions now use a shared title builder that handles both legacy titles and the newer g1, g2 prompt-group title format. Fusion parsing now recognizes grouped multi-run titles, scopes fusion sources to the same prompt group, and creates fusion sessions under the matching group so outputs from different prompts are not mixed accidentally.
Harden the icon sprite pipeline. The sprite generator now discovers icon names used through typed icon maps, JSX icon props, IconName returns, and generated-value flows without scanning unrelated string literals or the generated sprite itself. The generated sprite is strictly typed so invalid icon names are caught by type checking, and existing invalid or unsafe icon references were cleaned up across settings, provider, Git identity, scheduled task, voice, header, and sidebar surfaces.
Update backend configuration routes and documentation for snippets. The OpenCode config route layer now exposes snippet CRUD and expansion endpoints, accepts JSON bodies for snippet writes, and removes the old prompt-template provider. Scheduled task runtime expansion now uses snippets before dispatching messages.
Add regression coverage for snippet storage and expansion, config-route JSON handling, and multi-run title parsing. Validated with full type checking, full linting, targeted multi-run title tests, and targeted OpenCode snippet/config route tests.

Improve chat session switching and history pagination, with most of the aggressive limits scoped to the VS Code webview where the freezes were observed.
Session history loading and pagination:
- Reduce the VS Code message page size to 30 records so switching sessions does not immediately hydrate large histories into the webview.
- Keep manual Load older messages in VS Code fixed at 30 records per request instead of growing the request size over time.
- Add a bounded VS Code initial-tail expansion path from 30 to 50, 80, and 120 records only when the initial page has no user-message turn boundary, preventing large final turns from rendering as an empty chat.
- Lower the normal web message page size from 200 to 150 for a mild shared optimization without adopting the aggressive VS Code limits.
- Make session pagination metadata reactive per session so ChatContainer receives cursor updates from materialization and reconnect paths without requiring a switch away and back.
- Write pagination metadata before publishing newly materialized messages so the first render sees the correct has-more state.
- Store cursor information from direct materialization and reconnect message fetches in the shared session prefetch metadata cache.
VS Code cache and memory pressure reductions:
- Use a shared per-directory session recency map so cache eviction is based on app-level recency instead of whichever useSync instance happened to run.
- Limit VS Code warm session cache retention to 4 sessions and evict heavy inactive message caches after switching away from a large session.
- Disable sidebar session prefetch in VS Code because warming extra sessions was increasing webview memory and GC pressure during navigation.
- Remove dropdown background message prefetch so opening the switcher does not start additional session materialization work.
- Drop cached session-message-record snapshots when evicting session data so stale derived records do not remain after the raw session cache is cleared.
- Add bounded LRU caching for session message record snapshots, with much smaller VS Code limits and a VS Code cap that avoids caching snapshots above 30 messages.
- Bound the turn-window model cache in VS Code and avoid caching turn models for sessions above the VS Code message-page size.
Chat render-path reductions:
- Reuse ChatContainer's already-materialized message records in plan detection instead of adding a second active-session message subscription.
- Add a no-op guard when marking session plan availability so repeated detections do not create new Map references and fan out renders.
- Add no-op guards for session switcher and dropdown open state updates to avoid unnecessary store updates and renders.
- Convert several session-specific hooks to useSyncExternalStore with empty-session no-subscribe behavior so empty IDs do not subscribe to broad store updates.
- Remount the chat viewport when the current session changes, isolating per-session viewport and list state.
- Change the virtualized message-list fallback to render only a tail window when the virtualizer has not produced rows yet, instead of rendering an entire large history.
VS Code layout and header improvements:
- Remove the broad useSessions subscription from the VS Code layout header path and subscribe only to the active session title and initial-session existence.
- Unmount the compact VS Code session sidebar when the user is in chat view instead of keeping the hidden session list mounted and subscribed.
- Compute the latest assistant model and latest context-token usage in a single reverse scan of current-session messages instead of scanning the same list twice.
- Remove switcher git-status warmup work so the switcher reads already-loaded branch labels without starting extra background git status requests.
Markdown and file-reference safeguards:
- Skip expensive syntax highlighting for very large code blocks, with a 200-line cap in VS Code and a softer 1200-line cap in web.
- Add an LRU cap to file-reference stat lookups so the cache cannot grow without bound across many rendered messages.
- Limit the number of file references annotated per render to 40 in VS Code and 200 in web to prevent large assistant outputs from spawning too many stat checks.
- Clear file-link annotations when file-reference mode is disabled so stale attributes and handlers do not remain on previously annotated nodes.
Assistant-message action and preview reductions:
- Skip preview URL scanning on VS Code, mobile, and mini-chat surfaces so assistant text and tool output are not scanned where the preview action is unavailable.
- Skip Save-as-Plan project lookup on VS Code, mini-chat, and mobile surfaces.
- Hide Save-as-Plan and Start MultiRun assistant-message actions on VS Code, mini-chat, and mobile surfaces.
- Resolve the current session directory on demand for assistant actions instead of subscribing each assistant message to the full session list.
Tool and task rendering optimizations:
- Prefer finalized task metadata summaries without fetching child-session messages when the summary is already present.
- Avoid polling or final-fetching task child sessions once a final metadata summary is available.
- Use VS Code-specific task child fetch limits of 30 records for initial, active, and idle fetches.
- Parse diff stats by scanning patch text line-by-line instead of splitting large patches into arrays.
- Count write-tool lines by scanning content instead of allocating a split array for large files.
- Avoid trimming large patch strings just to test whether they contain content.
- Memoize diff and write statistics so unchanged tool parts do not recalculate them on every render.
VS Code bridge improvements:
- Return JSON and text proxy responses through the VS Code bridge as bodyText instead of base64 so the webview avoids synchronous base64 decoding for common API responses.
- Keep binary responses on the base64 path while making bodyBase64 optional in the bridge contract.
- Strip content-length, content-encoding, and transfer-encoding headers from proxied responses because the bridge reconstructs the Response body.
Validation:
- bun run type-check
- bun run lint
- bun run vscode:build
Inner sidebar content was pinned to a fixed openWidth (derived from store state) so it kept its full size during open/close animation. But store state only updates on pointer-release during a drag, which meant inner content didn't reflow while the user was actively dragging — only after they let go.
Keep openWidth as the inner width when the sidebar is idle (so slide-out animation still shows full-width content under the clipping aside), but during an active resize bind the inner content to a CSS variable that applyLiveWidth updates on every pointermove. The aside continues to use direct px width for transition reliability; the variable is just a side channel for the inner element.
OpenInAppButton and ProjectActionsButton now render icon-only triggers in the header instead of icon + text. Padding is tightened accordingly and the now-unused selectedButtonLabel / formatActionButtonLabel helpers are gone.
With narrower triggers the previous center-aligned dropdown with translate -30px started overflowing the viewport on the left edge for ProjectActions. Switched ProjectActions dropdown to align="start" and OpenInApp dropdown to align="end" (matching their positions in the header) and removed the manual translate offset.
Also fixed a long-standing inconsistency where clicking an already-running action in the ProjectActions dropdown re-ran it instead of stopping; the non-compact branch was missing toggleStopIfRunning=true that the compact branch already passed.
MiniChat header now uses bg-sidebar to match the main desktop header palette.
Sidebars now slide open/closed with a 200ms cubic-bezier(0.22, 1, 0.36, 1) transition on width. Inline transitionProperty/Duration/TimingFunction are used directly on the aside so the change is browser-driven rather than relying on Tailwind arbitrary classes that didn't reliably trigger the width transition.
Inner sidebar content is pinned to the open width with shrink-0 so it stays full-size while the outer aside collapses around it, eliminating the vertical jitter that came from content reflowing when its container shrank. The chat-frame keeps a constant 1px border and 10px radius on all four sides — only the left/right border color toggles between border/50 and transparent — so no layout reflow happens when sidebars open. Mask-corner overlays are always mounted and animate their left/right offset and opacity in lockstep with the sidebars instead of mounting/unmounting.
Header now spans the full window width above the [sidebar | chat | right-sidebar] row instead of nesting inside the central column. The chat area becomes a self-contained framed window with its own border and rounded corners on all four sides, and sidebars sit flush against the header sharing its bg-sidebar so the seam is invisible.
Removed the duplicated shell controls the old layout needed to fake header-height inside sidebars: portal host on RightSidebar, paddingTop reservation, top drag overlay, duplicated layout-left / chat-new buttons in SidebarHeader, the showDesktopSidebarChrome block in SessionSidebar, and the conditional traffic-lights inset on the desktop header. Mac WCO inset now lives only on the header.
Moved the new-session action into the SessionSwitcher dropdown as its first item, removed the standalone chat-new button from the header, relocated scheduled-tasks into the left action group of the sidebar header, and bumped ContextPanel tab strip to h-10 to balance the more prominent header.

Stop distilling or summarizing selected text before saving it to project notes. The action now appends the selected content directly so code, lists, emphasis, and other markdown survive.
Increase the project notes text limit from 1000 to 3000 characters to account for saving raw selected text instead of a short generated summary.
Update user-facing copy across locales from distilled insight language to selected text language.
Disable the active Zen summarization flow because the unauthenticated/free Zen provider is no longer available and now returns usage-limit errors for this feature.
Keep /api/text/summarize as an API-compatible stub that returns local sanitized or distilled fallback text with summarized=false, rather than attempting external model calls.
Remove notification and voice playback summary behavior from runtime paths. Notification {last_message} now always uses normalized truncated text, and TTS playback ignores historical summarize request fields.
Hide the notification summary settings and voice summarize-before-playback controls while preserving legacy persisted settings for compatibility. Also disable Zen model startup validation and make Zen model list routes return empty results.
Update module documentation and tests to describe the retired provider behavior and the remaining compatibility stubs.
Move VS Code/Cursor desktop notifications onto the webview Notification API instead of the extension-host watcher path, which could not reliably produce native OS notifications.
Route OpenCode runtime events from the shared sync pipeline into the VS Code webview so completion, error, question, and permission notifications use the same live event stream as the UI.
Respect the OpenChamber notification settings in VS Code, including template rendering, completion cooldowns, permission auto-accept suppression, and the notify-while-focused mode.
Use VS Code's window focus signal from the extension host instead of document.hasFocus() inside the webview, so hidden-only notifications are suppressed while Cursor or VS Code is focused across platforms.

* fix: reduce React Doctor diagnostics in ModelControls (69/88)
* Move EditModeIcon and IconBadge to module scope to prevent remount on every render
EditModeIcon and IconBadge were defined as React.FC inside ModelControls
function body, producing a new component type reference on every render
and forcing React to unmount/remount subtrees. Moves both to module
scope; EditModeIcon no longer closes over editToggleIconClass since all
callers already pass an explicit className prop.

When notificationMode is 'hidden-only', the isWindowFocused check now
happens before summarization and template resolution, not after. This
prevents costly Zen API calls for notifications that would be skipped
anyway, and eliminates stale notifications arriving after the user has
already read the response and switched away.
