feat(new-workspace): make a folder from Browse, and carry #1164 - #1169
Conversation
Browse only updated Directory after Use this folder, so Start could create in the prefilled cwd. Sync Directory from each opened folder. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Browse now tells New workspace the PC's home with each folder it opens, so a folder under home stays `~/…` in Directory instead of turning absolute the moment Browse opens, as Use this folder already wrote it.
A folder-plus button in New workspace's Browse bar opens one name field: Enter makes the folder inside the one shown and opens it, so Directory and Start follow; Escape closes only the field. POST /api/workspace/directories makes one folder (one path segment, never recursive or overwriting); watch devices and other origins are refused, and a PC on an older version says it cannot yet.

…tead Browse lists home when the typed path does not open; that listing no longer writes ~ into Directory, so Start still refuses the typo. An unexpected mkdir error now answers a JSON error body.

- Line 57: Update the wait in the folder-filter regression test so it only
completes after the Home folder button is disabled or the listing confirms the
home fallback; do not treat any nonempty `.dir-browser-path` value as success.
Keep the existing Browse flow and Directory-preservation assertion.
Review comments at @src/components/DirectoryBrowser.tsx:
- Line 108: In the `createDirectory` response flow, prevent a late response from
changing the selected folder after the user navigates elsewhere. Either disable
navigation while creation is pending or capture the request’s parent and call
`open(made.path)` only if the displayed parent still matches it.

## Change Release 0.4.9 from main at 6e575a8 (v0.4.8 + 193 commits), plus one blocker fix found in pre-release QA. - **`fix(terminal)` (ededf39)**: an open terminal re-attaches by itself after herdr restarts or updates. Before, the pane kept "terminal ended" and dropped typed input until another pane was picked (also in v0.4.8). The renderer now keys its attachment on the pane's `terminal_id`, which herdr changes on restore, and a cached tab waits until it is shown again. Locked by `scripts/herdr-restart-regression.ts` (fails on main, passes here), added to the browser lane. - `package.json` and `herdr-plugin.toml`: 0.4.9. - CHANGELOG: `[Unreleased]` and 147 changelog.d fragments become `[0.4.9] - 2026-10-16`, with `by @login` for outside contributors (22 PRs) and #1164 by @aisensiy carried in #1169. The reattach entry has no PR link yet: it is this PR's. - `release-summaries.json`: 0.4.9 in en/ko/ja/zh (7 new, 7 improved, 8 fixed in each). - `REMOTE_BUNDLE_VERSION` 27 -> 28: the bundle's inputs changed since remote-v27. - `telemetry/deployed.json`: the Worker was redeployed (version 431d6e07) for the settings schema changes since v0.4.8 (#1120, #1123, #1135); before it, this build's install event got HTTP 400. ## Release notes (as installs will show them) ### New features - New workspace → Browse makes a new folder and starts in it. - Shortcuts record chords with their exact modifiers; New tab and splits can be bound. - Pin workspaces, worktrees and agents from a row's menu or a right-click. - A Jump to bottom button returns a terminal scrolled up into history to the live end. - Pick a skill anywhere in a message, not only at its start. - Connect to remote PCs from a Windows PC. - Mod+Shift+E puts the cursor in the pane's input. ### Improvements - Split view halves are independent, and both may show the same tab. - Phones start in direct typing; the key bar's keyboard key lights for the input line. - Claude's whole plan shows from its plan file, and its answer review reads correctly. - Send shows progress until the agent takes the message, and Stop always goes first. - Recent tabs stay ready, so switching back shows the chat at once. - Sign out moved into Settings behind a confirm; menus and settings were trimmed. - A workspace or tab reopens on the pane you last saw, also after a reload. ### Bug fixes - Open terminals reconnect by themselves after herdr restarts or updates. - With herdr 0.9.4 or later, a second device no longer types stray characters into a pane. - Typing Hangul from an iPad hardware keyboard composes syllables. - Opening an Android keyboard no longer resizes the shared terminal. - When the app's folder is replaced under it, it asks for a restart, not an endless reload. - Hermes: Stop ends a running turn, and Chat will not send over text typed in its input. - The sidebar no longer breaks on a worktree without a branch. - A click on a lone pane's top right corner reaches the program there. The full changelog is the [`[0.4.9]` section of CHANGELOG.md on this branch](https://github.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/blob/chore/release-0.4.9/CHANGELOG.md) (too long for a PR body). ## Verification Scenarios ran on c5f297e. The two commits after it (a978847, 14387e5) change only CHANGELOG.md, from the gate review: links for #863, #864, #869, #870, #972 and #1161, #811 moved from 0.4.7 (where a merge put it) into 0.4.9, and entries no longer name the removed Files at once setting or Find. No runtime behaviour differs from what was verified. QA plan with scenarios and pass conditions: user flows install → first run → daily use → errors, on Linux, macOS, Windows and remote PCs. Each scenario ran twice: a first pass on main 6e575a8, then an independent re-run by separate agents on this head (c5f297e), checked artifact by artifact. Browser checks drove a real Chrome at 1440 px and 390 px (iPhone emulation), light and dark. Local herdr was 0.9.5 (CI pins 0.9.3), so this also covers the newer herdr users have. | ID | Flow | Where | Result on c5f297e | |---|---|---|---| | L1 | Fresh install: README plugin path and `install.sh` one-liner | Clean Ubuntu 24.04 (Docker) | PASS: both exit 0, health ok, startup hook after a herdr restart | | M1 | Plugin install, start, first terminal | MacBook, macOS 26.6, herdr 0.9.5 | PASS: installed in ~1 min, health ok, `echo` runs | | W1(a) | Fresh native install | windows-latest ("Real Windows install" check) | PASS (CI) | | W1(b) | Plugin install on an existing herdr 0.9.3, mirrored pane | Windows 11 PC | PASS; installer unit test PASS | | L2 | First run: workspace list, new workspace, type in a pane | Linux, herdr 0.9.5 | PASS | | L3 | Daily use: split halves on one tab, Browse → New folder, pin, record a shortcut, Sign out confirm, phone direct typing and input-line key | Linux | PASS 7/7 | | L4 | herdr down, server restart, typing while disconnected (kept as a draft), token-protected server refuses a fresh browser | Linux | PASS | | FIX1 | herdr stop + start with a pane open: re-attaches without re-pick or reload | Linux | PASS (screenshots below) | | R1 | Remote PC over SSH: bundle smoke, key + password logins, desktop and phone | Linux sshd, Debian container | PASS | | L5 | In-place update and PWA update | Linux | PASS for the product; `update-browser-qa.ts` needs a fixture body after a fold (#1178) | | C1 | Integration suite on herdr 0.9.5 + settings/split/shortcut/chat browser scripts | Linux | 521 pass / 0 fail; `chat-browser-qa.ts` script drift (#1178) | | T1 | 1,484/2,000-char one-line messages into real Claude Code | Linux; macOS | Linux PASS; **macOS input line: known issue #1174, see below** | CI on this head: Fast checks, Integration and browser, Native Windows install, Real Windows install, macOS session identity and the remote bundle builds all pass. Local `bun run check fast`: 3,825 unit tests pass; `bun scripts/release-guards.ts` passes. ### Known issue shipped: #1174 (not a regression) On macOS, a single-line message of about 1.5 KB sent through the terminal **input line** can reach Claude Code without its first 1,022 characters (5/5 in the re-run; the first pass kept it whole). It predates 0.4.8. Two fixes were built and rejected on runtime evidence: bracketed paste over `pane.send_text` corrupts plain shells, and sending through the attach stream lets a following Stop overtake the message. A safe fix needs a program-aware paste RPC from herdr or a shared delivery barrier. Direct typing, which phones start in from this release, and the desktop terminal delivered the same messages whole. Details in #1174. **Shipping with it is the maintainer's call at merge**: the QA plan counted it as a blocker, and no safe fix exists in this release. ### Follow-ups filed #1177 (Homebrew Bun hint), #1178 (three QA scripts outside CI drifted), #1179 (small UI findings). ### Screenshots (from the re-run on this head) **Reattach after a herdr restart (FIX1)** <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/FIX1/restarted-1440-dark.png" alt="pane re-attached after herdr restart, desktop" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/FIX1/restarted-390-light.png" alt="phone" width="240"> **First run (L2)** <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L2/echo-terminal-1440-dark.png" alt="first terminal" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L2/echo-terminal-390-light.png" alt="phone" width="240"> **Daily use (L3)** <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L3/split-03-typed-in-active-half-both-draw-1440-dark.png" alt="split halves on one tab" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L3/newfolder-03-created-directory-follows-1440-light.png" alt="Browse, new folder" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L3/pin-02-workspace-pinned-1440-dark.png" alt="pinned workspace" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L3/signout-02-confirm-dialog-1440-dark.png" alt="sign out confirm" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L3/phone-02-input-line-key-lit-390-dark.png" alt="phone input line key lit" width="240"> **Errors (L4)** <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L4/herdr-stopped-disconnected-1440-dark.png" alt="herdr stopped" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L4/server-restarted-reconnected-draft-offered-1440-dark.png" alt="draft offered after reconnect" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L4/server-killed-typed-draft-kept-390-light.png" alt="phone draft kept" width="240"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L4/unauth-gate-signin-1440-dark.png" alt="token gate" width="560"> **macOS (M1) and Windows (W1)** <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/M1/06-echo-1440-dark.png" alt="macOS" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/W1/echo-1440-dark.png" alt="Windows mirrored pane" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/W1/echo-390-light.png" alt="Windows, phone" width="240"> **Remote PC (R1), Claude long message on Linux (T1), update notes (L5)** <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/R1/machines-1440-dark.png" alt="remote PCs" width="560"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/R1/add-pc-390-light.png" alt="add PC, phone" width="240"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/T1/claude-1484-390-dark.png" alt="1,484 chars into Claude" width="240"> <img src="https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devswha/herdr-web-ui/9bc3d185945572068f3fe9746e646312a009618c/L5/notes-desktop.png" alt="release notes beside the update" width="560"> Screenshots live on the `qa/v0.4.9-evidence` branch (not for merging; delete it after this release). ## Release After this merges and its CI on `main` passes: push `remote-v28` on the merged commit, wait for the Remote PC bundles workflow, then run the Release workflow with `0.4.9`.
