The selected segment was an inverted fill — theme foreground behind
surface0 text — which in dark mode dropped a white slab into thin
chrome like the file toolbar, and the fully rounded corners made it
read as a lozenge rather than a tab. It now uses a surface3 fill with
foreground text, and each segment takes the corner radius of the
button at its size tier.
Segments also drop one padding step below the equivalent button. The
gap between segments already supplies the visual padding, so matching
button padding made the track wider than it needed to be and ate the
breathing room around it in a 32px toolbar row.
Selection changes colour only. No weight or size change, so labels
never reflow as you switch segments.
Carries the buttonControlHeight extraction that was already sitting in
control-geometry.ts, since the two files could not be split apart
cleanly for this commit. Its callers stay uncommitted.
Pull request auto-placement was using the current location of Changes as a proxy for pane ownership. Keep the registered explorer pane authoritative so moving Changes cannot redirect automatically discovered pull requests.
Keep the last painted canvas width while a pane resize is active, then repaint during layout before the settled width reaches the screen. This avoids scaling the bitmap during the drag or on its final handoff frame.
Fast Refresh preserves refs while rerunning effects, so canceled paint requests must release their retained IDs or unseen diff regions stop rendering. Paint the final expanded body’s reserved boundary pixel because no following header owns that seam.
Reuse measured diff geometry when review controls open, keeping the interaction responsive on large changes. Preserve complete tab-track snapshots while exact content widths settle so new tabs and retained workspaces do not flash or truncate.
Keep diff headers and painted content on the same scroll clock while preserving native scrolling and independent per-file horizontal offsets.
Complete review, selection, typography, tree, and palette parity without returning line rendering to React.
Size tabs from rendered labels and switch to horizontal overflow once minimum click targets are reached, keeping the add-tab action adjacent until it must remain fixed.
Make Changes an always-expanded document with an optional desktop navigation tree, keep Git actions in their platform-owned headers, remove pinned and inline split shortcuts, and place review tabs beside Changes.
* 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.
* fix(app): keep check rows the same height with and without "Add to chat"
A check row was minHeight 32 plus 8pt of vertical padding, but the xs
Button in its trailing slot is 28pt tall. The button stacked on the
padding rather than fitting inside the row, so a row grew to 44pt the
moment "Add to chat" appeared and the list visibly shifted as rows
gained the button.
Rows are single-line by construction, so the row now declares a fixed
height instead of a floor a child can outgrow. That height comes from
CONTROL_HEIGHTS, the same source the button sizes from, so the two
cannot drift apart later. GitLab pipeline rows share this style and get
the fix too.
* feat(app): summarize pull request checks and group them by status
The checks section listed every check inline under a bare "Checks"
header with three count pills. On a repo with a real matrix that meant
a wall of undifferentiated rows that pushed the activity timeline off
the pane, and the pills made the reader add up numbers to work out
whether the run was actually in trouble.
The section now leads with the answer — a headline that names the
outcome, a one-line count breakdown, and a ring showing the statuses in
proportion — then groups the rows by status with failures first, and
scrolls in place past roughly eight rows instead of growing without
bound. Groups collapse individually.
The derivation lives in checks-summary.ts as one pure function, so the
headline, the ring, and the group labels cannot disagree about the same
run. The rendering, the row, and the check identity move out of pane.tsx
into an owned module; the pane now wires it and nothing more.
Running checks also gain a timing. formatCheckRunDuration required both
a start and a completion, so anything still going showed nothing at all.
It now measures an unfinished run to now. The wire deliberately carries
formatted strings rather than raw timestamps — there is a test asserting
check timestamps are stripped — so the daemon does the measuring and the
client only decides how to say it: a bare "2m" on a running row would
read as "took 2m", so those rows say "running 2m".
System-injected prompts never enter the Paseo timeline, but their provider runs keep distinct canonical turn IDs. Keep those IDs for lifecycle correctness while grouping adjacent output without a visible prompt into one response.
The subagents track and the task list were stacked cards above the
composer. Each one pushed the composer further down the pane and painted
an opaque band the timeline stopped at, and both spent a full row on a
count that fits in a pill.
Both are now pills that open a panel — a popover on wide screens, a sheet
on compact ones, from the existing menu engine rather than a fourth
floating-panel implementation. The row frame is shared, so a subagent row
and a task row sit on the same rail whatever their contents.
The bar mounts inside the transcript's animated container and pins itself
to the bottom edge, so scrolled content passes under the pills instead of
stopping above them. It stays a child of that container rather than a
sibling floating over the composer: on Android a view outside its parent's
bounds paints but takes no touches, and every pill is pressable. The
container carries the same keyboard transform the composer does, so the
pills track the composer's top edge when the keyboard moves.
The tracker state moves out of the composer with it. None of it was
composer state; it lived there because that is where it used to render.
Settings detail screens must return to their logical parent regardless of the route used to enter them. Keep compact navigation in the header while preserving the desktop project-list affordance.
* feat(app): add persistent workspace side panes
Keep the common review and file-browsing workflow beside the active agent without tearing down pane contents. Workspace tabs now share one compact chip language, assistant file links route into the retained right pane, and diff/file trees share stable geometry.
* fix(app): localize pull request empty state
* test(app): update explorer pane coverage
* fix(app): preserve explorer pane workflows
* test(app): make explorer tab selection idempotent
* fix(app): persist workspace review pins
* fix(app): preserve sidebar scrim drag hook
* fix(app): restore companion pane interactions
* test(app): follow selected sidebar surface
Give selected rows their own semantic surface so selection remains visible through hover while badges, status rings, and action scrims inherit the correct backdrop.
Compact bottom sheets were still using the legacy independent-scroll gesture path, which intercepted Android sheet pans and row taps. Keep that path only for the desktop split viewport and let compact model browsers participate in sheet gesture handling.
* perf(app): keep composer typing responsive
The controlled web textarea pushed every keystroke through the draft store and broad composer tree before paint. Keep live text in the focused DOM input and publish draft and selection state after paint so persistence and reactive features remain intact without blocking the typed character.
* fix(app): preserve live composer state at actions
* fix(app): use live input for autocomplete clicks
* fix(app): keep submit activity atomic
Use the shared interface text tier across the workspace header, conversation, and composer so the working surface no longer shifts between adjacent font sizes.
* feat(agents): add active-turn steering
Let users choose whether an immediate prompt interrupts or joins the active turn. The daemon owns exact-turn admission, provider delivery, safe fallback, and canonical timeline identity while queueing remains client-side.
* fix(agents): stabilize steering history and replay QA
* fix(agents): preserve steering timeline order
* fix(agents): reconcile resumed provider history
* fix(agents): serialize steering with cancellation
* test(agents): prove Claude multi-tool steering
* test(agents): force explicit history hydration
* fix(agents): flush output before steer admission
* 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
Use an overlay scrollbar for desktop chat timelines so scrollbar gutters cannot move centered content. Share its behavior with existing workspace scrollbars and derive resting and hover colors from semantic foreground tokens.
* perf(app): reduce warm workspace switch work
Retained workspaces avoided mounts but pane activity still rerendered the full composer, message input, and agent-control presentation. Keep the activity contract intact while moving focus-sensitive behavior behind small context consumers, and add a Playwright benchmark that measures rapid retained workspace switching on one browser clock.
* perf(app): accelerate retained workspace switching
Avoid repeated retained-stream layout reconciliation and unrelated workspace structure recomputation. Use the lightweight route transition while the host is already focused, while preserving targeted root POP_TO for returns from app-wide routes where it prevents duplicate hidden decks.
* perf(app): defer composer focus during workspace switches
* perf(app): retain recently used workspaces longer
Keep up to ten workspace screens warm so normal multi-workspace navigation does not repeatedly rebuild recently used timelines. Inactive screens expire after ten minutes, while the active screen remains protected and capacity eviction stays least-recently-used.
* fix(app): reconcile retained timeline geometry
* fix(app): refresh retained reading position
Let users opt into branch and project context on workspace rows while keeping the default sidebar quiet. Project names follow the existing project-icon visibility rule so grouped rows do not repeat their parent.
* perf(app): bound large diff row mounting
Keep the existing vertical and horizontal scroll owners so virtualization does not change gesture or scrolling behavior. Reserve exact offscreen row heights while mounting only the visible window, and retain the full renderer when wrapping or editing reviews requires dynamic geometry.
* perf(app): keep large diff reviews responsive
Opening an inline editor changed the whole review action object, reconciled large syntax-token trees, and disabled row virtualization. Keep the expensive token subtree stable and preserve deterministic row geometry while the editor is open.\n\nBound server-side highlighting for pathological single lines and remove the unused client highlighter so the actual diff pipeline owns the limit.
* test(app): check mounted diff typography
Row virtualization can unmount a fixed diff row after scrolling. Assert the configured font size against a currently mounted row so the test continues to verify rendered typography without depending on window position.
* test(app): stabilize Mermaid streaming coverage
* feat(app): archive finished subagents together
Make the track action clean up finished managed and provider-owned children as one operation while preserving running work. Managed archives remain sequential and provider-owned dismissal stays client-local.
* test(app): clarify subagent archive assertions
* feat(plugins): add local plugin surfaces and RPCs
Keep plugin execution scoped to its daemon while allowing one local TypeScript entry point to contribute validated RPCs and native client surfaces. Paseo owns host selection, navigation chrome, and per-installation query caches.
* feat(plugins): add Linear attachment source
* fix(nix): refresh npm dependency hash
* test(server): exclude internal sessions from Hub counts
* test(server): distinguish Hub execution sessions
* feat(plugins): make local plugins explicitly opt-in
Keep plugin loading dormant until configuration enables it, and collect unsupported examples under one directory.
* refactor(plugins): establish host boundaries
* fix(nix): refresh plugin dependency hash
* fix(plugins): complete packaging and startup rollback
* feat(plugins): add managed local lifecycle
Make trusted local plugins recoverable and authorable through daemon-owned lifecycle operations, host settings, and a capability-gated CLI. Reloads fully stop the previous plugin before starting new code, while generated projects provide strict TSX checking without changing runtime dependency ownership.
* fix(nix): refresh plugin dependency hash
* perf(timeline): resume cached history from its exact range
Warm launches were repainting cached history and then downloading the same bounded tail to rediscover that nothing changed. Persist synchronization authority only when the complete current canonical window can be encoded losslessly; otherwise retain the existing display-only fallback.
* test(timeline): hide replica setup behind E2E helper
* fix(timeline): bound persisted resume overflow
* test(timeline): cover workspace eviction catch-up order
* test(timeline): read persisted range from IndexedDB
* fix(app): preserve native composer input semantics
Native text was round-tripped through application state on every keystroke, which could overwrite an input method's in-flight edits. Keep native text ownership inside the input and reserve application-driven replacement for explicit draft mutations.\n\nRoute native clipboard images through the existing persisted attachment pipeline so keyboard and system paste actions behave like other image sources.
* fix(nix): refresh dependency hash
The native composer dependency changes the fixed npm dependency closure used by desktop builds.
* fix(app): keep composer locked across image pastes
Count concurrent native image persistence operations so submit remains disabled until every pasted image is attached.
* fix(app): replace composer text through the DOM on web
Web TextInput refs are DOM elements, so application-driven draft replacement must update their value and selection without native setNativeProps.
* fix(app): preserve web IME composition
Carry the Chinese IME fix from #2990 into the web composer input boundary.

* fix(desktop): keep element selectors available on loaded pages
Annotate element and Screenshot element returned early when a cached load signal said the guest was not ready, even if the current document was complete and executable. Let executeJavaScript own the readiness boundary and keep selector cleanup available in the same stale-signal state.
Extend the real Electron browser regression to reproduce the complete-document/stale-signal mismatch through both toolbar actions.
* test(desktop): await browser selector injection
Poll the guest selector state through the browser bridge instead of assuming injection completes within 250 ms. This keeps the Electron regression deterministic on slower CI hosts.
* Harden browser selector session lifecycle
* Keep selector E2E fixtures independent
* fix(desktop): harden selector and annotation lifecycle
* fix(desktop): keep selector PR focused
* refactor(desktop): own element selector lifecycle

Reuse the existing workspace drag interaction for pinned rows and persist their local order across grouping modes. Keep pressed and dragged row scrims aligned with the active backdrop, and preserve memoized row rendering on web.
* feat(sync): restore host directories before reconnect
Persist complete project, workspace, and active-agent replicas so every registered host can paint immediately, including offline hosts. Reconcile those replicas through monotonic per-entity cursors on the existing directory RPCs without retaining an event journal.
* fix(sync): preserve active turn identity during catch-up
Own Agent-to-wire projection beside the existing snapshot normalizer so replica persistence does not reach through directory-sync internals. This also keeps identified active turns intact when unchanged agents are folded into an incremental directory response.
* test(e2e): inspect the real IndexedDB replica
Keep cache setup, reload, and hydration coverage on the production browser storage backend after the replica moved off localStorage. Measure writes at the actual IndexedDB put boundary as well.
* fix warm reconnect cache paths
* feat(sync): persist project icons and deepen directory sync
* fix(sync): preserve project update order
* fix(cache): preserve validated replica persistence
* fix(sync): retain cached agents during catch-up
Running chats expose one provider, so an intermediate provider screen and back action are redundant. Restore the direct model-list entry behavior while preserving the multi-provider picker.
* fix(app): keep profile modes scoped to providers
Applying a profile through sequential field setters allowed a provider change
to race mode persistence, poisoning modeless provider preferences with another
provider's mode. Apply profiles as one form transition and heal invalid
provider-scoped mode preferences when profiles are used.
* test(app): cover profile features across providers
* fix(app): validate persisted client state
Persisted replica data could satisfy TypeScript through an assertion while missing fields required by renderers. Treat every AsyncStorage value as untrusted input, clear values that fail strict schemas, and version the replica DTO so incompatible caches cannot hydrate.
* fix(app): preserve validated legacy state
* fix(app): preserve validated preferences
Preserve supported legacy location fields and every shipped theme while keeping unknown persisted fields rejected. Align browser test seeds with the current preference shape so strict validation exercises the intended provider.
* fix(app): migrate legacy agent preferences
Released clients stored host/location fields and per-provider thinkingOptionId together. Migrate those exact strict bytes into current preferences without admitting unknown fields.
* fix(app): preserve drafts with legacy reviews
Accept the exact strict shape released for workspace review attachments so migration can discard that obsolete attachment without clearing every persisted draft.
* fix(worktrees): preserve selected base config
New worktrees were overwriting the selected ref's paseo.json with source-checkout bytes, which could create an accidental revert in an otherwise fresh workspace. Keep committed base config authoritative and warn when locally saved setup changes still need to be committed.
* fix(worktrees): seed config exclusively
* fix(projects): refresh config status on focus
Todo timeline entries gained required activity metadata in beta.1 while the persisted cache format remained unchanged. Reject version 3 snapshots so upgrades hydrate authoritative state instead of rendering legacy rows.
* fix(subagents): preserve opened children on parent archive
Opening a managed child represents user ownership only while that client's tab remains open. Track that intent per client, detach surviving children during parent archive, and keep single and bulk tab-close behavior consistent.
* fix(subagents): mark generic tab openings
Centralize managed child tab ownership in agent navigation so list, command-center, deep-link, notification, and subagent-track openings all mark ownership before creating the tab. Use stable localized errors for lifecycle failures.
* fix(subagents): classify cold tab openings
Fetch uncached agents before deciding whether tab ownership must be recorded, so notification, desktop, and cold-route openings cannot bypass parent archive protection.
* fix(app): translate navigation fallback errors
* fix(navigation): allow offline workspace intents
* refactor(app): derive subagent ownership from open tabs
* fix(server): serialize subagent lifecycle ownership
Keep trailing edit controls from changing section heading rhythm, and center each profile's icon with its own text block so one-line and noted rows share the same visual alignment.
Restore the established tree rails while retaining file actions. Keep Escape local to generic editable fields so cancelling a file draft cannot interrupt an agent.
The subagent track used a custom hover path that left its label and chevron muted. Reuse the ghost button interaction so track headers promote their content consistently.
