Lead with the browser-to-CLI onboarding journey, document the generated starter bundle, and align guided setup with available Hub connections and daemon-reported runtime defaults.
Adds plugin-contributed light and dark app themes, including persistence, host-aware coalescing, fallback behavior, documentation, examples, and browser/iOS QA.
* docs(hub): drop the manual auth secret from self-hosting setup
Hub generates its authentication secret on first start and stores it in the
database it is already using, so self-hosters no longer run openssl or carry
PASEO_HUB_AUTH_SECRET between restarts. The variable stays as an override for
deployments that must supply the secret from a platform secret store; Hub uses
it without persisting it, so removing it resumes the stored value.
Also corrects a claim that predates this change: rotating the secret does not
invalidate execution credentials already issued. Hub verifies those against
persisted hashes rather than the secret, so only browser sessions end.

* docs(hub): lead with the local guided setup
* docs(hub): document XDG data directory
* docs: make Hub self-hosting the quickstart
The daemon imports the plugin SDK at runtime, but the workspace was named
@paseo/plugin and marked private, so it was never published. 0.5.0-beta.1
shipped @getpaseo/server depending on a package that does not exist and
`npm install @getpaseo/cli@beta` failed with a 404 for every user.
Two things hid it. sync-workspace-versions only rewrites deps matching
@getpaseo/*, so the "*" range on @paseo/plugin survived untouched into the
published tarball. And `npm pack --dry-run`, which is all release:check and
CI run, lists files without ever resolving the dependency graph.
Renaming to @getpaseo/plugin rather than publishing the old name: @paseo is
not our scope on npm, so that name could never have been published at all.
The rename also brings the package under the version-sync filter, which is
what pins it correctly from here on.
Plugins scaffolded against the old name still import @paseo/plugin. Both
spellings resolve through plugin-sdk-specifiers.ts, tagged COMPAT with a
removal date, so existing plugins keep loading.
This does not repair 0.5.0-beta.1 — a published tarball's dependencies
cannot be changed. The package publishes with the next release.
The plugin compiler spawned esbuild through app.asar, and the subprocess
imported the React client barrel. Point esbuild at the unpacked binary,
add a react-free @paseo/plugin/server entry, and pass a typed PluginTheme
so plugin UI follows the active theme on desktop and mobile.
* feat(skills): manage orchestration skills per host
Agent skills execute on the daemon host, so their bundle, selection, and filesystem convergence must share that owner. Preserve the existing install semantics while letting every capable client manage the selected host and migrating the legacy desktop preference once.
* fix(client): keep skill management internal
Keep host skill management on the low-level daemon client used by the app. Do not expose daemon settings or the desktop-only compatibility migration through the shared Paseo API handed to plugins.
* fix(e2e): declare skills fixture dependencies
Use Playwright's required destructuring form for the test-scoped daemon sandbox fixture so CI can collect the real-host skills suite.
* test(skills): use native managed paths
Assert fixed skill targets relative to the daemon user's real home with platform-native path joining so the ownership contract holds on Windows and POSIX hosts.
Keep the entry point focused on contribution wiring so client UI and daemon handlers can use their own runtime APIs safely. Surface compilation failures and lifecycle transitions in the retained plugin log tail.
* feat(plugins): add workspace panels and command center contributions
Give local plugins contextual UI entry points without making the daemon interpret client placement or callbacks. Panels receive stable IDs and read cached client state through required selectors with shallow equality, avoiding unrelated guest rerenders and context-discovery RPCs.
* fix(plugins): align shared client state ownership
Workspace panels and Command Center callbacks consume the same frozen client snapshots, so their adapter belongs to the plugin boundary rather than either contribution surface. Refresh the Nix dependency hash for the selector-store dependency added by this feature.
* feat(cli): manage projects
Expose the existing project lifecycle through one CLI command group so projects can be managed without opening the app.
* fix(cli): preserve remote project paths
Project paths belong to the daemon when a target is explicit. Require that path instead of resolving the CLI machine's cwd, and keep local convenience resolution for the default connection.
* docs(cli): document project management
* docs(cli): remove repeated project reference
* feat(plugins): expose Paseo API to local plugins
Plugin surfaces borrow the selected host connection while subprocess handlers receive an exclusively owned IPC session, so plugins can use normal workspace and agent operations without inventing another transport.
* feat(plugins): reload global enablement safely
Treat the global plugin switch as a live daemon setting and teach plugin automation to inspect it before acting. Enabling remains permission-gated because plugin backend code can access the daemon machine and client contributions execute inside the app.
* feat(plugins): expose plugin logs
Capture plugin stdout and stderr separately from IPC so authors can debug initialization, RPC, cleanup, and crash behavior from the app or CLI. Keep a bounded tail across lifecycle recovery while preserving structured output in the daemon log.
* fix(build): order plugin dependency builds
* test(plugins): align startup and CLI expectations
* feat(daemon): reload configuration without restarting
Keep config validation, reloadability classification, override handling, and atomic runtime application inside the daemon so local and remote clients share one authoritative workflow.
* fix(daemon): preserve reload resource ownership
Keep every materialized provider client under daemon-lifetime ownership and classify speech overrides from resolved providers. Restore the complete WebSocket config-store test contract exposed by CI.
* docs(hub): document per-execution worktree branch names
Hub now materializes `${{ paseo.execution.id }}` inside a daemon
environment's `worktree.newBranch` before it persists or dispatches the
launch, so a reusable branch-off environment can get a stable branch per
execution instead of every trigger contending for one literal name.
The reference states the constraint precisely because it is the part the
YAML cannot show: `newBranch` accepts that one execution-scoped path and
nothing else, and any other expression fails bundle activation with the
authored file and field in the error. Literal branch names stay valid.
* docs(hub): reshape the per-execution worktree branch docs
Split the two pages by the job each reader is doing. The daemon page is a
task guide, so it now carries the worktree YAML and only the two facts
that reader needs to choose a branch name, then links out. The reference
owns the exhaustive contract at the `newBranch` field: a table contrasting
a literal with the template, then the accepted expression scope and what
activation rejects.
Dropped the render-before-dispatch ordering. Readers cannot act on where
Hub materializes the value; the reachable behavior is that a retried or
recovered execution keeps its branch, which is what the table says.
* docs(hub): make the per-execution worktree branch the only guidance
A branch-off Hub environment that aims every execution at one branch name
is not a configuration worth teaching, so the docs no longer present it as
an alternative. Both pages now show `newBranch: trigger-${{ paseo.execution.id }}`
and say what it does, with no literal-branch example and no comparison.
The reference keeps the field's type as a bare syntax fact, along with the
accepted expression, what activation rejects, and the authored field the
failure names.
* feat(skills): add Paseo help and provider diagnostics
Give support agents a topology-aware troubleshooting entry point backed by the deployed documentation index, and expose the daemon provider diagnostic through the CLI so agents can inspect the affected host directly. Agent-launching skills now use configured profiles instead of the removed orchestration preferences.
* test(cli): keep provider diagnostics on real boundaries
Remove the internal client mock and preserve its normalization and host-targeting assertions through the existing isolated-daemon coverage.
* feat(cli): add workspace rename command
`paseo workspace rename <workspace-id> <title>` sets a workspace's
user-visible title through the existing workspace.title.set RPC, and
`--reset` clears the override so the name reverts to the branch or
directory. The command reads the descriptor back so the output shows
what a reset reverted to.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix(cli): harden workspace rename against read-back and arg failures
Review findings on the rename command:
- A failed workspace list sweep after a successful title change reported
the whole command as failed. The read-back is display-only, so it now
runs outside the mutation's error path and degrades to a null name.
- Only --reset needs the descriptor read back; a set title is already the
resolved display name, so the common path no longer pages the list.
- Dropped the `"code" in error` rethrow. Nothing in that block throws a
CommandError, but DaemonRpcError always carries a `code` property even
when it is undefined, so the guard let those through to render as
UNKNOWN_ERROR with a stack instead of WORKSPACE_RENAME_FAILED.
- Commander 12 allows excess positionals, so an unquoted multi-word title
renamed to its first word and dropped the rest. The command now rejects
excess arguments.

* refactor(cli): report the rename RPC response instead of reading back
Reading the descriptor back to show what --reset reverted to was the only
reason rename needed a paged workspace sweep, and that sweep dragged in
everything around it: a failure path that could report an applied rename
as failed, a nullable name, and a bespoke warning sink to tell the two
null cases apart.
Sibling commands don't do this. `workspace archive`, `agent mode`, and
`schedule update` all report what the RPC returned and stop; the one
command that reads back is `agent update`, which has the same "applied
but reported as failed" bug. So rename now mirrors `workspace archive`.
`--reset` reports `title: null` rather than naming what it reverted to;
`paseo workspace ls` shows the resolved name. This also reverts the
`collectWorkspaces` extraction, whose only second caller was rename.

Expose Automatic and Manual metadata model selection in Host Settings, preserve existing configured fallbacks, and keep structured generation resilient through discovered candidates. Includes Playwright coverage, translations, public documentation, and settings-row alignment polish.
* fix(hub): send hostname during daemon enrollment
Pass the local hostname as daemon enrollment metadata so Hub can assign useful default slugs without coupling daemon authority to the human CLI login. Document the rollout dependency on Hub accepting the optional field.
* test(hub): verify enrollment hostname payload
* refactor(storage): remove chat rooms and agent loops
This is the prerequisite cleanup for the storage backend migration. Legacy wire schemas remain temporarily so mixed-version peers can still parse old messages, while daemon callers now use query-shaped AgentStorage methods that can map directly to SQL later.
* test(cli): remove retired chat and loop coverage
* docs(hub): align public docs with v0.3
Bring the public workflow, API, authority, activity, and self-hosting guidance in line with the released Hub contracts. Clarify the public HTTPS boundary required by provider events while keeping Hub and PostgreSQL private.
* docs(hub): clarify daemon logout scope
* docs(hub): restore Compose path and simplify TLS guidance
* docs(hub): link the single-repo-team-bot example
* feat(client): publish the TypeScript SDK surface
Make the high-level client API usable for external integrations and document complete agent, workspace, provider, event, and recipe flows.
* fix(client): correlate provider snapshots by daemon cwd
Return the daemon's canonical snapshot identity so waitForReady can match updates for relative, tilde, and otherwise non-canonical paths without duplicating filesystem rules in the SDK.
* test(server): make snapshot cwd assertion portable
* fix(client): gate canonical provider snapshot waits
Older daemons do not expose the canonical snapshot identity needed to correlate workspace updates safely. Require the advertised capability and fail with an update-host message instead of guessing across workspaces.
* feat(hub): deploy canonical workflow bundles
Keep CLI deployment aligned with Hub's authored bundle boundary so validation and activation receive the same deterministic source files. Public documentation now teaches that boundary as the only configuration format.
* test(hub): assert validation diagnostics directly
* refactor(hub): deepen HTTP client module
* feat(hub): validate named agent configurations
* docs(hub): align Claude mode example
* docs(hub): name the Hub tools in workflow prompts
Every Hub workflow example now tells the agent which tool to call:
hub.reply for the user-facing response, hub.finish_execution to
complete the step and record structured output. Granting a capability
through allow_outputs makes the tool available; it does not make an
agent use it, and an agent that is not told answers in its own
transcript and leaves the step to its idle timeout. Explicit
instructions are what worked against real agents.
Classifier and other intermediate steps name hub.finish_execution
alone, so the docs do not imply every step must reply.
Drops the github.reply allow_outputs blocks from the GitHub examples.
The GitHub provider registers no output capabilities, so that
declaration never materializes a tool; those agents comment through
their scoped GH_TOKEN with gh, which the reference and trigger pages
already said. The read-only answer branch has no network authority for
that, so it only finishes.
Also quotes the "Request: ${{ paseo.prompt }}" prompt block in the
reference, which was invalid YAML as written.
* docs(hub): wrap triggering input in its own prompt block
Every Hub YAML example now ends its prompt with the raw triggering
message wrapped in <user-prompt> tags, as a separate block after the
workflow instructions. The agent can see where your instructions stop
and the request starts, which matters most on the steps that read
external Slack, Discord, and GitHub text.
The first workflow explains the convention in two sentences and points
at Hub security for the controls that actually limit an agent. Tags
label the input; they are not containment, and the docs do not claim
otherwise.
Replaces the earlier quoting fix in the prompt-blocks reference: the
message now lives in a block scalar, so the colon needs no quoting.
* docs: base worktree examples on origin/main
Every branch-off example now passes a remote-tracking ref. Paseo
fetches remote refs in the background, so origin/main is current while
the local main is whatever was last pulled, and base resolution tries
refs/heads first: an unqualified main silently branches off stale
history. The gotcha is explained once, next to the first branch-off
example in the worktrees guide; the other pages just use the ref, and
the Hub environment reference links there.
Also points the safety-gate classifier at the structured-output
section, which shows the output wrapper the finish call takes.
* docs(hub): configure Codex read-only through provider options
Hub examples described a read-only Codex step as mode: read-only. That
Paseo mode preset pairs the read-only sandbox with approval_policy
on-request, so an unattended Hub step stops to ask a question nobody is
there to answer. It is also not one of the modes the Codex provider
advertises.
Every read-only step now uses the provider-native passthrough proven by
the real-provider evidence in #3025: approval_policy never,
sandbox_mode read-only, web_search disabled. The security guide already
used this block; the workflow guide, examples, and reference now agree
with it, and the reference says plainly that a Paseo mode ID is a
separate surface from these options.
mode: full-access is unchanged. It maps to approval_policy never, so it
does not stall an unattended step.
* docs(hub): show a classifier choosing the repository and the model
Both routing jobs were only documented as caller-supplied inputs, so
there was no example of the thing people actually want: one read-only
classifier that reads the request, picks the repository it belongs to
and the model it needs, and hands both to a worker. Replaces the
caller-only model example, which the new one covers through its
override values.
The two axes are not symmetric and the example says so. A model is a
value, so values.selected_model goes straight into agent.model. An
environment cannot come from an expression at all: the compiler accepts
a literal name or paseo.inputs.<name> and nothing else, so each
repository needs its own environment and its own conditional step. One
classifier, exactly one worker.
Corrects the routing section, which listed environment among the fields
an agent output may select. It never could.
Also puts a blank line between adjacent steps and environments in the
deadline and repository-routing examples, and bases the daemon worktree
example on origin/main, which the earlier sweep missed.
* fix(website): keep development requests local
Canonical host redirects were applied to LAN-addressed development traffic, including inspector WebSockets. The redirected socket retained the Vite port and caused the development proxy to terminate when the public host timed out.
* docs(hub): order the workflow scenarios from simple to hard
The Hub pages were arranged by the shape of the configuration schema
rather than by what a reader is trying to do, which showed up three
ways: the overview opened on the storage hierarchy, workflow
configurations were split between workflows.md and a separate examples
page, and the examples that existed started with the hardest one.
workflows.md is now a ladder. One Slack trigger answering in a thread
stays inline as the first workflow, and nine further scenarios sit
under it as collapsible blocks, each a complete configuration adding
one idea to the one above: full access, repeated replies, a GitHub
trigger, two ordered steps, a typed input, two triggers, a classifier
choosing a model, a classifier choosing a repository, and last the
override composed with ??. configuration/examples.md is removed and its
configurations live there now.
Two claims in the old material were wrong and are corrected. Nothing
carries between steps except a declared output, so the planning
scenario passes its plan through output.schema instead of telling the
second agent to follow a plan it cannot see, and a worktree environment
creates a worktree per execution rather than sharing one. GH_TOKEN
authenticates the gh CLI but does not configure git, so the pages no
longer imply a step can push without a commit identity and credential
helper on the daemon host.
The overview drops the organization/connections/daemons/projects tree,
which concepts.md already owns, in favour of the smallest configuration
that does something. Hosting is now a link from the product pages
rather than a section in them.
* docs(hub): make GitHub access an explicit step grant
GitHub authority gets its own page. A step holds a token only when it
declares a github block — connection, repositories, permissions,
duration — and Hub supplies GH_TOKEN plus environment-only git
configuration, revoked when the step ends. No credential is ever
implied by the trigger source.
Rewrites the issue-to-pull-request scenario onto the block, repoints
the trigger, reference, FAQ, and concepts pages, and sweeps the Hub
pages for announcing sentences and compressed paragraphs.
* docs(hub): lighten dense reference prose
Restructure paragraph walls into short paragraphs, lists, and code
blocks: logout behavior in daemons, deploy paths and precedence in
configuration, install limits and dispatch fields in the API page,
required outputs and partial resolution in the reference, and the
policy translation and secrets guidance in security. Fixes two
remaining trigger-derived credential claims in triggers/index.
* fix(nix): update npm dependency hash
* docs(hub): document shared prompts and authority defaults
* feat(cli): add durable Hub login
Keep organization-scoped human credentials separate from daemon relationship authority. Connect now exchanges explicit or stored CLI authority for a one-time enrollment token, while logout removes human access without implicitly disconnecting automation.
* fix(cli): require TLS for remote Hub credentials
Durable Hub credentials are bearer secrets, so remote origins must not receive them over cleartext HTTP. Keep literal loopback HTTP available for local Hub development.
* fix(cli): make Hub destinations explicit
Resolve optional Hub origins through one shared precedence policy so active logins remain the default context and credentials stay origin-bound. Report the selected destination before human-facing work, keep structured output auditable, and preserve login authority until requested daemon disconnection succeeds.
* feat(cli): add Hub configuration deploy
Deploy configuration bytes directly to an explicitly targeted Hub project using only caller-supplied origin and organization API key authority.
* refactor(cli): name Hub deploy contracts
* docs(hub): complete deploy CLI guidance
* docs(hub): link deployed API references
* feat(cli): bundle referenced Hub partials
Send exact referenced prompt-partial content alongside YAML so Hub can resolve local includes while inline-only configurations keep the existing request shape.
* fix(cli): match Hub YAML size semantics
Apply the finalized Hub request limit to decoded YAML length and cover multibyte configuration payloads without changing the wire body.
* docs(hub): document required output contracts
* docs(hub): link faq to output contract
* docs(hub): document materializable required outputs
Explain that required declarations resolve through registered capabilities, failed deliveries can be retried, and command-line repository comments use the scoped credential path.
Hub configuration resolves a normalized friendly slug to an immutable daemon ID. Document that model consistently so enrollment terminology matches hub.yml.
* feat(website): nest docs pages under landable groups
The docs sidebar could already render groups from subdirectories in
public-docs, but nothing used it because every doc was a flat file, and
two things stopped it being usable.
A group had no page of its own, so its label was only a toggle and its
name came from the directory name via formatLabel. A directory's
index.md now supplies the group's label, order, and href, which makes
the group landable and lets the label be authored rather than derived.
Categories and top-level directories named the same thing, so a
categorised doc at hub/index.md produced a group nested inside its own
category. Only directories below the top level become groups now.
Also fixes two behaviours in the sidebar:
- The open/closed effect assigned containsActive on every change, so a
group you expanded to browse collapsed the moment you navigated
anywhere else. Navigating in now opens a group and navigating away
leaves it alone.
- The sidebar scrolls independently of the page and never scrolled the
active entry into view, so loading or refreshing a page far down the
list left the sidebar parked at the top with no visible position.
The group row is a single target: it navigates and expands, and
collapses when clicked again from the page it points at. A separate
chevron button would put two actions a few pixels apart.
* docs(hub): document Hub
Adds a Hub section covering what it is, how it works, daemons,
triggers, configuration, activity, and the two ways to run it.
The section separates using Hub from running it. Overview, quickstart,
daemons, triggers, and configuration hold regardless of who operates
the deployment; the self-hosting branch owns deploying the service and
creating the GitHub, Slack, and Discord apps it talks to. That split
falls on a real seam, because those apps are exactly what a hosted Hub
would own on your behalf. Hosted is a placeholder until it ships.
Each provider gets a trigger page carrying its events, filter
semantics, and the full paseo.event.* reference for the data a prompt
can read. That data is the thing a config author actually needs and
the thing they cannot get from anywhere else.
Every YAML block was parsed against the Hub config schema rather than
eyeballed, which kept several plausible-looking things out of the
docs: worktree prNumber takes a literal number and not a merge
variable, only daemon environments run today, and github.push has no
actor so it can never satisfy the required from_users filter.
Troubleshooting moves to order 90 so it stays last.
* refactor(website): let the active docs entry scroll itself into view
The layout queried the sidebar for the active entry after every
navigation, which coupled it to when that entry mounts. A link inside a
collapsed group only mounts once the group's own effect opens it, so
the query could run against a DOM that does not contain it yet.
Moving the scroll to the entry removes the ordering question rather
than answering it, and drops the ref and the cross-component query.
Reported by Greptile on #2864. The failure it described does not
reproduce: navigating from a page outside a collapsed group into one of
its children still scrolls correctly, verified with the group confirmed
collapsed and the sidebar forced to the top. The coupling was real even
though the bug was not.
* docs(hub): stop listing BETTER_AUTH_URL as required
It falls back to PASEO_CLOUD_PUBLIC_URL, so a deployment that sets the
public origin already has a correct auth base URL. Listing it as
required made the Fly recipe look incomplete when it was not.
Moved to optional with its default, and recorded what actually breaks
without BETTER_AUTH_SECRET: the auth routes close and nobody can sign
in.
Reported by Codex on #2864, which read the same inconsistency the other
way round and proposed adding the variable to the Fly example.
* docs(hub): attach a database in the Fly recipe
The Fly section showed inline config and a secrets command, neither of
which supplied DATABASE_URL. It defaults to localhost:5432, which on
Fly reaches nothing, so the documented deployment could not start.
fly postgres attach sets DATABASE_URL as a secret, so the step is the
attach itself rather than another variable to copy.
Reported by Codex on #2864.
