* Add opt-in browser tools for desktop tabs
Adds the daemon opt-in, desktop tab routing, MCP tools, and real browser automation surfaces for Paseo desktop browser tabs.
* Fix browser tools CI expectations
* Address browser tools review findings
* Restrict browser file automation paths
* Fix browser upload test on Windows
* Harden browser navigation inputs
* Make browser tools create usable tabs
* Update browser MCP empty-state test
* Fail browser tab creation when registration times out
* Fix browser screenshots for agents
* Hide disabled browser tools from agents
* Address browser tools architecture review
* Replace browser tools review tests
* Wrap browser tab registration errors
* Mock Expo Router in app unit tests
* Handle invalid browser automation requests
* Return browser failure on desktop disconnect
* Update browser disconnect websocket test
* Relax browser timeout polling test
* Handle invalid browser responses
* Return browser failure when send fails
* Remove local diagnostics and fixture paths
* Fix dev service home fallback
* Use worktree home for dev services
* Use managed daemon in desktop dev
* fix(browser): keep agent tabs addressable
Track agent-active browser targets separately from human-focused tabs and keep resident webviews alive for automation. Browser tool visibility now comes from registration while the broker reports disabled execution.
* refactor(browser): register tools through catalog
Move browser tool registration onto the shared Paseo tool catalog so the MCP server remains only the transport adapter.
* fix(settings): translate browser tools host error
Cmd+R was scoped through a stale Electron-side active browser value. Opening or focusing a browser pane set activeBrowserPaneId, but switching to an agent tab only updated workspace layout state. Electron still remembered the old browser and the app menu reloaded that hidden/previous browser instead of the app.
Make workspace layout the authority. Derive the active browser from focusedPaneId plus the focused pane's focusedTabId, and sync browserId|null to Electron from one WorkspaceScreen effect. BrowserPane no longer marks itself active from URL-bar or webview focus handlers, so call sites do not have to remember to clear Electron state when focus moves to an agent, terminal, or another pane.
Electron now treats the synced value as the workspace-active browser, not an independently observed focus source. Menu reload uses that workspace-derived browser when present; otherwise it reloads the app window. Direct Cmd+R events that originate inside a browser guest still reload that guest through the guest before-input-event path.
Browser webviews now own their guest context menu in the main process. Add copy/paste/select-all and a development Inspect Element action for attached browser guest WebContents.
DevTools opening is routed through the main process by browserId. Docked-right DevTools did not become visible for browser guest contents in practice, even though inspect mode activated, so the final behavior opens detached DevTools for both the toolbar button and Inspect Element. The renderer logs bridge/result failures, and main logs registration/open/inspect outcomes for future debugging.
Regression coverage is at the workspace layout derivation layer: focused browser id follows the focused pane's active browser tab and becomes null when the active tab is not a browser. Verified with targeted layout-store tests, navigation E2E, settings E2E, npm run typecheck, and npm run lint.
Adds a Service URLs setting (ask / in-Paseo / external browser) that
controls where URLs from running scripts open on desktop. First click
prompts with a "don't ask again" checkbox; in-Paseo opens a workspace
browser tab. Closing a browser tab now clears its session partition.
- Refresh icon: use single-arrow RotateCw instead of two-arrow RefreshCw
- URL bar selects all text on focus
- Cmd+R now reloads the active browser pane (tracked via IPC) when
the URL bar has focus, instead of reloading the Electron window
- Forward Paseo shortcut keys (b, e, w, t, k, /, \, comma, digits,
enter, arrows) from the embedded webview to the main window so
sidebar/tab/etc. shortcuts still fire when focus is inside the
loaded page
- Add classify.ts as the single source of truth for CLI invocation
routing (discriminated union, derives known commands from Commander)
- Remove all hardcoded command lists and duplicate path detection logic
- Simplify shell wrappers to dumb pipes (zero classification)
- Fix hot-start: use `open -n -g -a` (VS Code pattern) so second-instance
event fires when app is already running
- Fix cold-start race: pull-based IPC (getPendingOpenProject) so renderer
fetches the pending path after React mounts, instead of push event that
arrived before the listener existed
- Fix asar read corruption: unpack node-entrypoint-runner.js from asar
(Node.js v24 in Electron 41 can't parse package.json inside asar)
- Strip ELECTRON_RUN_AS_NODE from env when spawning desktop app from CLI
Logs from both main and renderer processes now persist to
~/Library/Logs/Paseo/main.log (macOS) with automatic rotation.
Removes the unused webview_log IPC handler.
