* feat(ui): block branch switches on dirty trees
* feat(ui): show unpushed commits in git branch selector
* feat(ui): show recent branches in git selector
* fix(ui): persist recent branch status
* feat(ui): add mobile branch picker
* fix(ui): guard mobile branch checkout
* fix(i18n): restore Turkish git empty state labels
* feat(ui): flag dirty draft directories on the branch selector
Replaces the draft dirty-directory banner with an indicator on the branch
selector: a warning icon plus a hover tooltip that opens by itself for five
seconds when the dirty state first appears, then stays hover-only. The copy
states the situation and the options (commit or worktree) without prescribing
either.
* feat(ui): optional push in the dirty branch switch dialog
Commit-and-switch gains an opt-in "Push after commit" checkbox. When the
push fails the commit stands but the switch is cancelled with an explicit
toast, so the user is never moved off a branch without knowing its push did
not happen. Without the checkbox the toast states the commit is local only.
* fix(i18n): align dirty-directory copy across locales
* fix(a11y): name the unpushed-commit badge in the branch picker
The badge showed a bare arrow and number with no accessible name or tooltip.
Both the desktop recents list and the mobile picker now carry a localized
"N commits not pushed" title and aria-label.
* fix(mobile): push before switching dirty branches
Honor the dirty-switch dialog's push option on the mobile Changes surface.
A failed push leaves the new commit on its source branch, refreshes state, and
cancels checkout. Mobile branch selection now also shows the existing dirty
switch notice.

startup enable snapshots your current environment into the native service so startup behaves like you launched openchamber from the same shell. This preserves provider tokens, PATH, SSH agent settings, and other CLI auth/config env vars. Use --no-env-snapshot for a minimal service env.
When OpenChamber launches the local OpenCode server, it also registers a native
openchamber agent tool for project, session, and scheduled-task orchestration.
The tool is not injected when connecting to an external OpenCode server.
Behavior settings can optionally inject a managed system-prompt optimizer on
the next OpenCode restart. It is disabled by default and is not available for
external OpenCode servers.
Tunnel behavior notes
One active tunnel per running OpenChamber instance (port).
Starting a different tunnel mode/provider on the same instance replaces the active tunnel.
Replacing or stopping a tunnel revokes existing connect links and invalidates remote tunnel sessions.
Connect links are one-time tokens; generating a new link revokes the previous unused link.
Connect other OpenChamber apps
Use connect-url when a web/API server should be added to OpenChamber Desktop or another OpenChamber app. If no server is running on the selected port, OpenChamber starts one first.
--api-only starts API routes without serving browser UI assets. --lan binds the server so other machines can reach it. --server is the address saved into the Desktop connection link. --ui-password protects browser access if UI routes are enabled elsewhere; the generated client token is what Desktop uses for API access.
This creates a remote client token and prints an openchamber://connect?... link. The link contains the server URL, token, label, and payload version. In OpenChamber Desktop, paste it in Settings -> Remote Instances -> Direct Instances -> Import Link to add that server as an Instance.
If the server was started with --lan or --host 0.0.0.0, connect-url automatically advertises a detected LAN IP instead of 127.0.0.1. Use --server <url> when you want to advertise a specific DNS name, Tailscale address, reverse proxy URL, or HTTPS endpoint.
If you are exposing the server beyond localhost, start it with a password:
Generating a client token does not automatically password-protect the hosted browser UI. --ui-password protects browser access; the client token lets another OpenChamber app connect to this server.
Full base URL of external server (overrides OPENCODE_PORT)
OPENCODE_PORT
Port of external server
OPENCODE_SKIP_START
Skip starting embedded OpenCode server
OPENCHAMBER_OPENCODE_HOSTNAME
Bind hostname for managed OpenCode server (default: 127.0.0.1, use 0.0.0.0 for LAN/remote access — trusted networks only). Invalid values are rejected with an error and fall back to loopback
OPENCHAMBER_HOST
Bind hostname for the OpenChamber web server (default: 127.0.0.1; use 0.0.0.0 for LAN/remote access — trusted networks only)
OPENCHAMBER_VERBOSE_REQUEST_LOGS
Set to true to log every HTTP request; disabled by default to keep user logs small
OPENCHAMBER_SKIP_API_COMPRESSION
Set to true to disable gzip compression for /api/* responses
OPENCHAMBER_COMPRESS_API
Set to true to force /api/* compression, or false to disable it. Desktop runtime disables API compression by default to reduce local sidecar CPU use
OPENCHAMBER_FS_UPLOAD_MAX_BYTES
Maximum file upload size in bytes (default: 100 MiB)
OPENCHAMBER_TERMINAL_SHELL
Preferred terminal shell executable used by the Auto setting before platform defaults
Security note: binding to 0.0.0.0 exposes the server on all network interfaces — use only on trusted networks and protect with firewall rules or --ui-password.
Managed-local path note: OPENCHAMBER_TUNNEL_CONFIG must use a container path under /home/openchamber/.... If the config file references credentials-file, ensure that JSON path is also mounted and reachable inside the container.
Data directory: mount data/ for persistent storage. Ensure permissions:
openchamber # Runs in background by default
openchamber stop # Stop background server
systemd service (VPN / LAN access)
Use --foreground to keep the CLI process alive so systemd (or any other process manager) can track and restart it. Combine with OPENCODE_HOST to connect to an OpenCode instance running as a separate service.
Why set PATH and SSH_AUTH_SOCK?
systemd user services start with a minimal environment — no shell profile is sourced.
Without an explicit PATH, OpenCode won't find tools installed via Homebrew, npm, or ~/.local/bin.
Without SSH_AUTH_SOCK, git operations over SSH (push, pull, clone) will fail.
%t expands to $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR (e.g. /run/user/1000), where most SSH agents write their socket.
--host 0.0.0.0 is required to listen on all interfaces (the default is 127.0.0.1). Use --host <ip> or OPENCHAMBER_HOST=<ip> to bind to a specific interface instead.
