* Make workspace IDs opaque, independent of the filesystem path Workspace IDs were the resolved checkout/worktree path, so code could treat an ID as a path: prefix matching, deriving directories from it, falling back to a path when a lookup missed. IDs are now opaque - compared only by exact equality and never used as a path. Anything path-shaped resolves the workspace record first and reads its cwd. New workspaces get a generated `wks_` ID; existing path-shaped IDs are read from disk and never regenerated, so there is no migration and no change to the wire or persisted schemas. Groundwork for running multiple workspaces in a single directory. * Keep attachment scope key stable and align refetch test The attachment scope key keeps `workspace=` instead of `wsid=` so existing persisted drafts are not orphaned; the rename was cosmetic. The SDK refetch test no longer asserts a filter, matching refetch fetching one page and selecting by id client-side. * Fix live agent updates in directories without a registered workspace The opaque-ID work removed buildProjectPlacementForCwd's directory fallback, so an agent running in a folder with no registered workspace (e.g. a fresh non-git dir) produced a null placement. forwardAgentUpdate then threw "Workspace not found", the error was swallowed by its catch, and no agent_update was emitted — live model/thinking switches and status updates silently stopped. Caught by the live-preferences e2e suite. The fallback builds a directory-scoped project placement keyed by the path. That key is a project grouping key (non-git projects group by path), not a workspace id, so it stays within the opaque-id rule. * Always run server worktree archive, even without a resolved workspace Archiving bailed out entirely when the workspace was not found in the client store, so a race or stale state could make "archive" do nothing server-side with only a console.warn. The server archive is keyed by worktreePath, which is always available, so it now runs regardless; only the optimistic client-side updates (keyed by workspace id) are gated on the workspace being resolved. * Expect a directory-scoped placement for unregistered agent dirs This unit test asserted the no-placement behavior reverted in the live agent-update fix, which had broken live model/thinking switching. Update it to expect the directory-scoped placement now emitted for an agent in a directory with no registered workspace. * Fix opaque workspace routing in app E2E * Preserve workspace IDs during partial bootstrap * Fix archive flows for opaque workspace IDs * Stop treating opaque workspace IDs as filesystem paths Workspace IDs are opaque (wks_<hex>), but several call sites still passed the id where a directory was expected, which broke those flows for opaque IDs. The branch switcher sent the id as a cwd to branch/stash/checkout git operations, and server archive/reconcile cleanup keyed git-watch and subscription teardown by id, leaking that state. Git and filesystem operations now take the workspace directory; the opaque id is used only for identity and cache keys. Archive/reconcile cleanup routes through a single teardownArchivedWorkspace helper that keeps the key split explicit: runtime store by id, git watch and subscription by cwd. Path-derived grouping keys are renamed to directory keys, and the helpers are split into workspace-identity and workspace-directory so the id-vs-path boundary is obvious.

Quick Start
# Install dependencies
npm install
# Copy environment variables
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your API keys (OpenAI, Deepgram)
# Run development servers
npm run dev
# Open browser to http://localhost:5173
Architecture
- Express Server (port 3000) - Serves API and built UI in production
- Vite Dev Server (port 5173) - Hot-reload React UI in development
- WebSocket (
/ws) - Real-time bidirectional communication - Agent - STT → LLM → TTS pipeline with terminal control
- Daemon - tmux-based terminal management (in-process)
Development
# Run both servers (recommended)
npm run dev
# Or run separately:
npm run dev:server # Express on port 3000
npm run dev:ui # Vite on port 5173
# Type checking
npm run typecheck
# Build for production
npm run build
# Start production server
npm start

⏳ In Progress (Phase 3):
- Terminal control (tmux integration)
📋 Planned (Phases 4-9):
- LLM integration (OpenAI GPT-4)
- Agent orchestrator
- Speech-to-Text (Deepgram)
- Text-to-Speech (OpenAI)
- Audio streaming
- UI polish
See IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md for complete details.
Environment Variables
OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-key-here # GPT-4 and TTS
DEEPGRAM_API_KEY=your-deepgram-key-here # Streaming STT
STT_MODEL=whisper-1 # Optional: override to gpt-4o-transcribe, etc.
STT_CONFIDENCE_THRESHOLD=-3.0 # Optional: reject low-confidence clips
STT_DEBUG_AUDIO_DIR=.stt-debug # Optional: persist raw dictation audio for debugging
PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo # Runtime state directory (agents/, etc.)
PASEO_LISTEN=127.0.0.1:6767 # Listen address (host:port or /path/to/socket)
PASEO_HOME defaults to ~/.paseo and isolates runtime artifacts like agents/. PASEO_LISTEN controls the daemon listen address. For blue/green testing you can run a parallel server without touching production state:
PASEO_HOME=~/.paseo-blue PASEO_LISTEN=127.0.0.1:7777 npm run dev
Tech Stack
- Server: Express, TypeScript, ws (WebSocket)
- Client: React 18, Vite, TypeScript
- Terminal: tmux (via child_process)
- AI: OpenAI (LLM + TTS), Deepgram (STT)
Testing
Currently manual testing via:
- Start servers:
npm run dev - Open http://localhost:5173
- Test WebSocket connection (green status indicator)
- Click "Send Ping" button to test communication
More testing guidance as features are implemented.
