Fan ONE prompt across N branch/agent lanes: N worktrees, N Claude sessions on the
same prompt, watched side-by-side in the split-grid board, approve/kill per lane,
🏆 keep the winner (losers' worktrees removed). ~90% composition of shipped parts.
- src/http/session-groups.ts (new, pure, no git exec): deriveRepoRoot /
groupSessionsByRepo (cluster sessions by their <repo>-worktrees parent).
- GET /live-sessions/grouped (read-only; registered BEFORE /live-sessions/:id so
"grouped" isn't captured as an id). MAX_FANOUT_LANES env (default 6, = grid-6 cap).
- public/fanout.ts (new, pure): buildFanoutCmd shell-quotes the prompt (single-quote
wrap with '\''-escaping so $(...)/backticks/;/&& can't execute) + collapses newlines
+ caps 4000 chars; laneBranch/slugify. Effective N = min(lanes, maxFanoutLanes, 6),
≥2; the maxSessions cap is enforced server-side ("Started K of N" banner).
- public/tabs.ts launchFanout (N× createWorktree → openProject w/ prompt pre-injected
via the existing initialInput) + keepFanoutWinner; public/projects.ts renderFanoutForm
+ extracted shared createWorktreeReq (DRY). Byte-shuttle preserved (lane = own PTY).
One-click merge deferred (winner session stays open for a manual merge).
Reused unchanged: createWorktree/removeWorktree, addEntry/initialInput, split-grid +
per-quadrant approve/maximize/monitor + gauges. Verified: typecheck + build:web clean,
2063 pass at --test-timeout=30000 (only the known tmux/PTY flake red). Fixed 3
/config/ui exact-shape tests to include the new maxFanoutLanes field.
Four small, high-delight features that turn passive capture into glanceable signals.
- Sync chip on project cards: ahead/behind vs upstream + last-commit time, folded
into the existing concurrent per-repo metadata pass (git rev-list --count
--left-right @{u}...HEAD + git log -1 --format=%ct; no upstream → undefined, no route).
- Cost budget guard: COST_BUDGET_USD env (0 = off); a per-session one-shot latch
(Session.budgetNotified, cost is monotonic so never re-armed) fires a single push
on threshold crossing in manager.handleStatusLine; the already-broadcast telemetry
frame carries the warn (tg-cost-warn styling derived from costUsd>=budget via
/config/ui — no new ServerMessage). web-push title added to sw-push.js.
- "While you were away" digest: GET /digest?since= → {finished, needsInput, stuck,
totalCostUsd, sessions[]} aggregate over manager.list(); FE banner on reconnect.
- Recent commits per project: src/http/git-log.ts (NUL-delimited git log → CommitInfo[]),
GET /projects/log?path= (isValidGitDir), textContent-inert render in project detail.
All git via execFile (no shell) + validated cwd; new routes read-only; commit
messages rendered via textContent. Verified: typecheck + build:web clean, 1904 pass
at --test-timeout=30000 (two default-5s failures are slow-sandbox real-subprocess
timeout flakes — the known ring-buffer test + a new real-git-clone sync test — not
logic regressions).
The walk-away primitive: queue follow-up prompts and let a session advance itself
while you're gone — "run the tests" drains, and when Claude next goes idle "open a
PR" drains. Injection reuses writeInput (byte-identical to a keystroke, broadcasts
to all mirrored devices); the byte-shuttle is untouched.
- POST/GET/DELETE /live-sessions/:id/queue — POST/DELETE behind requireAllowedOrigin
+ a per-IP rate limit (QUEUE_RATE_MAX=20/min) + SESSION_ID_RE; text non-empty,
byte-capped (QUEUE_ITEM_MAX_BYTES=4096, 16kb body), count-capped (QUEUE_MAX_ITEMS=10).
- Bounded per-session queue in manager (enqueueFollowup/drainOne/clearQueue);
new optional queueLength on LiveSessionInfo.
- Idle drain: the Stop/SessionEnd /hook branch scheduleDrain()s a debounced timer
(QUEUE_SETTLE_MS=1500). It drains exactly one entry only if the session still
exists, hasn't exited, produced no output during settle, and is idle — three
guards (debounced single timer + pop-one + settle re-check) → one entry per idle.
- New additive ServerMessage {type:'queue',length} broadcasts the count to mirrors
(⧗N badge); FE enqueue via the quick-reply editor + TabApp.enqueueToActive.
Injected bytes go verbatim to the PTY (never built into a shell command). Verified
independently: typecheck + build:web clean, 1737 tests pass (real-PTY integration
covers idle-drain / one-per-idle / settle-guard). Foundation for templated launches,
auto-continue, and issue-intake (docs/ROADMAP.md).
Remote one-tap approval was blind (you'd tap Approve without seeing Claude wants
to run `rm -rf` or rewrite a config). The pending tool's actual command / diff now
renders above the approval bar, on every attached device, riding the same broadcast
+ late-joiner rails as the existing `gate` field.
- src/http/approval-preview.ts (new, pure, never-throws): deriveApprovalPreview —
Bash → command; Edit/Write/MultiEdit/NotebookEdit → a synthetic DiffFile; else null.
Every line sanitized via sanitizeField (strips control/ANSI); caps 40 lines /
200 chars/line / 4KB (security limits, UTF-8-safe byte clamp).
- src/types.ts: additive optional `preview?: ApprovalPreview` on the status
ServerMessage + handleHookEvent (older clients ignore it).
- src/server.ts /hook/permission: derive preview from tool_input, store on the
PendingApproval entry, re-send to late joiners exactly like `gate`.
- manager.ts threads it; public/tabs.ts renderApprovalPreview (command → <pre>
textContent; diff → reused innerHTML-free renderDiffFile). Unknown tools /
plan gates fall back to today's name-only bar.
Attacker-influenced tool input → rendered via textContent/diff-renderer only,
never innerHTML. Verified independently: typecheck + build:web clean, 1692 pass.
Relax the one-WS-per-session invariant (#5) so multiple devices mirror the
same live terminal (everyone sees output, anyone can type — tmux-style).
- types.ts: Session.attachedWs → clients Set + clientDims Map; add cwd;
SessionManager.list() + LiveSessionInfo
- session.ts: broadcast() output/exit to all clients; attachWs JOINS (no kick,
takes dims); detachWs removes one client, stamps detachedAt only when the last
leaves; setClientDims resizes PTY to the MIN cols/rows across clients
- manager.ts: join instead of kick; broadcast status; onExit drops only when a
client was attached; list() for discovery
- server.ts: GET /live-sessions; resize → per-client setClientDims; close →
detach one client; permission gate uses clients.size
- tests: rewrote session/manager tests for multi-client (join/broadcast/min-dims/
last-detach) + list(); 222 pass, tsc clean
- src/session/tmux.ts: sync tmux CLI wrappers (available/has/kill), best-effort
- config: useTmux from USE_TMUX env (1/0/auto→detect tmux on PATH)
- session: when useTmux, spawn 'tmux new-session -A -s web_<id> <shell>' (the
node-pty proc is a tmux CLIENT); createSession takes an optional id for
re-attach; Session.tmuxName; kill() runs tmux kill-session
- manager: handleAttach re-attaches to a surviving 'web_<id>' tmux session after
a restart (Case 3.5); shutdown kills only the client pty for tmux sessions so
the shell keeps running
- tests: USE_TMUX:0 in shared integration cfg (no tmux leakage); unit CFGs
useTmux:false; integration 'H1' (real tmux): set var → restart server →
re-attach → var survived. 208 tests green.
