* Fix relay E2EE reconnect races
* fix(relay): use WebSocket protocol ping for daemon control keepalive
The daemon's control socket pinged the relay every 10s with a JSON
`{type:"ping"}` message. Every JSON message wakes a hibernated Cloudflare
Durable Object via `webSocketMessage`, so an idle daemon was billing
relay DO CPU 24/7 just to echo `pong`.
Switch to `socket.ping()` (RFC 6455 protocol ping frames). Cloudflare's
runtime auto-responds at the edge without waking hibernated DOs, so an
idle daemon-to-relay connection now costs zero DO CPU.
Liveness still works: the `ws` library emits a `pong` event on the
daemon when the edge replies, which refreshes `controlLastSeenAt`.
`markControlReady` stays tied to DO-originated messages (sync,
connected, disconnected), so we still detect a broken DO at connect.
The DO keeps its JSON ping handler tagged `COMPAT(relay-json-ping)` so
old daemons (< v0.1.76) continue to work.
* test(relay): assert protocol-ping pongs arrive in e2e idle test
Adds a `relay_control_pong_received` debug log to the daemon's pong
handler, then asserts in the existing idle-relay e2e test that:
- at least one pong arrived during the 12s idle wait (proving the
Cloudflare edge auto-responds to RFC 6455 protocol pings)
- no stale terminations fired (proving the keepalive path is healthy)
If the daemon ever regresses to JSON-level keepalive pings (which wake
the hibernated relay Durable Object and incur CPU billing), this test
will catch it: the `pong` event would never fire because the DO's reply
would arrive via `message`, not as a protocol pong frame.
The test's capturing logger is bumped to `debug` level so the assertion
can read the new debug log; production daemons stay at `info`.
Confirmed locally against wrangler-hosted relay: 2 pongs / 0 stale per
12s window.
* test(relay): catch dual-ping regression via DO-side legacy ping log
The existing idle-test assertion catches "revert to JSON ping only" via
the missing pong event, but misses the dual-ping regression where
someone adds `socket.send(JSON.stringify({type:"ping"}))` alongside
`socket.ping()`. Both paths would work, the pong assertion still
passes, and DO CPU billing silently returns.
Add a console.log in the DO's handleControlKeepalive (which only runs
when a JSON ping reaches the DO), then assert in the idle e2e test
that no such log appeared during the 12s idle window.
Verified the assertion catches the regression: temporarily injected a
`socket.send(JSON.stringify({type:"ping"}))` next to socket.ping(),
test failed with `expected 1 to be 0` and the relay logged
`legacy_json_ping_received`. Removed the injection.
Log noise during the COMPAT window doubles as useful telemetry: it
counts how many old daemons are still pinging, which informs the
removal date for the COMPAT shim.

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

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.
