Conversation
…ery 2 s
## Change
A visible Chat read `/api/pane/conversation` every 2 s whether or not the agent wrote anything. It now reads when the pane's native transcript changes.
- The bridge advertises a `conversation-watch` feature. A visible Chat sends `conversation-watch {pane_id, enabled}` on its existing WebSocket after attaching; Terminal views, hidden tabs and detached panes release it.
- `server/conversation-monitor.ts` keeps one monitor per watched pane on a single 250 ms stat timer. It finds the transcript through the existing provider and process evidence (`paneTranscript`, split out of `paneConversation`) and compares the file's identity, size and times without parsing turns; Devin and OpenCode watch their SQLite database and its `-wal`. A change sends `conversation-changed {pane_id, signature}`. The conversation itself still comes only from REST.
- `src/lib/conversationRefresh.ts` runs newest-page reads one at a time: pushes read at most once every 2 s, with one trailing read; initial display, Send, reconnect and returning to the tab read at once. A visible Chat keeps a 10 s backstop for older bridges and lost frames.
- A Chat that shows the terminal's text because no native transcript exists yet rereads on the pane's own output instead, under the same 2 s bound.
- `/api/pane/conversation` negotiates gzip with an encoding-independent weak ETag and `Vary: Accept-Encoding`; the remote-PC proxy passes the encoding through. `REMOTE_BUNDLE_VERSION` is not raised. This part overlaps devswha#615, which gzips every text answer; if devswha#615 lands first, this endpoint's own gzip can go in favor of it.
- Prompt polling for approval cards stays at 2 s.
- The demo transport answers the new frame. Docs (`docs/development.md#conversation-refresh`, AGENTS.md rows) and the CHANGELOG (`Unreleased → Changed`) are updated.
Closes devswha#530
## Validation
- `bun run typecheck`, `bun run build`, `generate:types --check`, `bun run build:site`: pass.
- `bun run test:unit`: 2052 pass, 0 fail, run with `TMPDIR=/tmp` (macOS's default TMPDIR makes the socket path in `scripts/check.test.ts` too long).
- New `server/conversation-push.contract.test.ts`, with the api, submit and codex contract tests: 145 pass, 0 fail.
- `scripts/chat-browser-qa.ts`: all 8 checks pass, including "send refresh preserves history and slow refreshes do not overlap".
- Measured on macOS in headed Chrome with owned fixtures (details in docs/development.md):
- Five appends in 30 s: mean latency 883 → 164 ms, payload 2.90 MB → 0.32 MB. This was measured before the visible-only subscription and the 2 s bound.
- 20 s samples: conversation reads for one idle Chat 9 → 2, eight idle Chats 78 → 15–16. Terminal and hidden views stay at 0 and create no monitor.
- Bridge CPU is higher in some cases: one idle Chat 119 → 135 ms, eight Chats written about every 100 ms 416 → 485 ms.
- A mirrored pane (as on Windows, `terminalAttach` off): output reaches the Chat in 180 ms instead of 8333 ms.
- Not run: the full `bun run test:integration` and `bun run test:ui`. Not checked on a phone.

An older bridge, or a tab that let go of its pane while out of use, gets no conversation-changed frames. The visible Chat then reads at the former 2 s cadence instead of waiting out the 10 s backstop; the backstop applies only while pushes are available. The client also keeps a visible Chat's interest across detach, so the pane's next attach asks for pushes again.
An older page held the serial lane until it answered, so a clear or a new turn waited behind a slow page (scripts/chat-history-browser-qa.ts: clear while an earlier page is in flight). The older page still starts after the newest read in flight, and the newest reads stay serial among themselves.

Thank you, @zerodice0! This change has been carried into #757 on top of current |
…#757) Closes #434, Closes #530 Supersedes #730, #689 ## Change Two chat features from outside contributors, rebased onto `main` after 0.4.6, with each contributor kept as the commit author: - **SendUserFile files as openable links** (#730 by @bluzername). The chat no longer shows a `SendUserFile` call's raw JSON. It shows the caption and opens each file in the existing file viewer, the same way any other tool's `file_path` opens. There is no new route and no new access rule. CodeRabbit's review finding is fixed: rows are keyed by position, so a path listed twice no longer gives React a duplicate key. - **The conversation is read when its transcript changes, not every 2 s** (#689 by @zerodice0). The bridge advertises `conversation-watch`. A visible Chat asks for `conversation-changed` pushes on its existing WebSocket (`server/conversation-monitor.ts`: one 250 ms stat loop per watched pane, no turn parsing). The client (`src/lib/conversationRefresh.ts`) reads at most once every 2 s from pushes, with a 10 s backstop. Without pushes it falls back to the old 2 s poll. That covers an older bridge or a released pane. The demo transport (`site/demo/transport.ts`) answers the new frame. ### Conflict resolution against `main` - #615 landed first and gzips every text answer (`server/compress.ts`) with weak ETags. So #689's conversation-only gzip negotiation (`conversationResponse`) is dropped, along with the relay's `content-encoding` pass-through in `server/machine-api.ts` and the tests for both (`api.contract.test.ts` "conversation response encoding", `machine-proxy.test.ts`). This is what #689 itself proposed if #615 landed first. The conversation endpoint keeps main's weak ETag and 304 handling. - `server/codex.contract.test.ts` keeps main's weak-ETag assertion. ### Remote PCs `MachineRelay` forwards client frames unchanged, so `conversation-watch` reaches a remote bridge, and that bridge's `snapshot` decides whether the feature is used. **`REMOTE_BUNDLE_VERSION` is deliberately not raised (maintainer release step): the remote bundle needs a bump at release** before remote PCs get pushes. Until then, a remote PC's bridge (remote runtime v25) does not advertise `conversation-watch`. The client sends it no unknown frame, and its Chat polls every 2 s as before. A new `ws.test.ts` case covers this. ## Verification Run on Linux x64 against an isolated herdr test session (`HERDR_TEST_SESSION=herdr-web-ui-test-l7`), never the user's session: - `bun run typecheck`: pass. `bun run build`: pass. - `bun run test:unit`: 2470 pass, 8 skip, 0 fail. - `bun test ./server/conversation-push.contract.test.ts ./server/api.contract.test.ts ./server/codex.contract.test.ts`: 119 pass, 0 fail. - `HERDR_TEST_MODE=unit bun test ./src/lib/ws.test.ts ./src/lib/conversationFetch.test.ts ./src/lib/sendUserFile.test.ts ./server/machine-proxy.test.ts ./server/compress.test.ts`: pass. The new older-bridge case in `ws.test.ts` fails when the `conversation-watch` feature check in `HerdrSocket.attach` is removed (checked, then restored). - `bun scripts/chat-browser-qa.ts`: all 8 PASS, including "send refresh preserves history and slow refreshes do not overlap". - `bun scripts/chat-history-browser-qa.ts`: all PASS. - Demo transport: `chat-greeting-demo-regression.ts`, `held-rows-demo-regression.ts`, `prompt-dock-demo-regression.ts`: PASS. - SendUserFile, real surface: a one-off Playwright check on an owned herdr pane with a Codex rollout containing a `SendUserFile` call (two copies of the same path plus a caption). The work row shows the caption and two `Open <path>` links, with no raw JSON and no React key warnings. Clicking a link opens the file viewer with the file's contents. - `CHECK_MAX_RUNS=8 bun run check full` on the branch after merging `main` (5792d71, #755): integration and browser lanes `ok`. ### Test fixes found on the way - `conversation-push.contract.test.ts`, "releases native interest when the owned pane ends…": failed once on CI (timed out waiting for `pty-exit`). The bridge accepts a `conversation-watch` as soon as an attach is recorded, before the mirrored attachment is created. A pane closed in between answers the attach with an error, not `pty-exit`. Reproduced locally by delaying attachment creation by 2 s: the old test failed the same way (12 s timeout), the fixed one passes. The test now waits for the attach to join (the mirror's `pane-geometry`) before closing the pane. Product behaviour is unchanged. - Following CodeRabbit's review, the same suite now keeps its omp store under a temporary `HOME`, as `server/omp.contract.test.ts` does, instead of writing into the real `~/.omp/agent/sessions`. `main` (5792d71, #755) is merged in; the only conflict was `CHANGELOG.md`. --------- Co-authored-by: bluzername <bluzer@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: zerodice0 <zerodice0@gmail.com>

Thank you, @zerodice0! Your change landed on main through #757, with you kept as the commit author and credited in the changelog. Closing this one as superseded by #757. |
## Change Release 0.4.7, from main at 80ca9bb (47 PRs since v0.4.6). - `package.json` and `herdr-plugin.toml`: 0.4.7. - CHANGELOG: `[Unreleased]` becomes `[0.4.7] - 2026-10-12`, with the compare links. - #513's entry moves out of the 0.4.0 section, where its branch's merge left it, and gets its credit; it says the pace is a setting, off by default (#834). - A Maintenance section covers the PRs that had no entry: #743, #756, #767, #795, #805, #810, #813, #821, #826, #831. - The note under the Hermes entry that asked for a runtime bump at release now says what a remote PC needs. - `release-summaries.json`: 0.4.7 in en/ko/ja/zh/tr (6 new, 6 improved, 5 fixed). The Turkish lines are not checked by a native speaker. - `REMOTE_BUNDLE_VERSION` 25 -> 26. Since v0.4.5's runtime the bridge gained Hermes transcripts (#604), conversation pushes (#689) and Grok/Antigravity activity (#816), so `remote-v26` is published before the app release. Not in this release: #606. ## Validation - `bun scripts/release-notes.ts 0.4.7` renders the summaries and the full changelog (235 lines). - `bun run typecheck` and `bun run build`: pass. - `TMPDIR=/tmp bun run test:unit`: one failure, `server/voice.test.ts` ("audio.webm" vs "clip.webm"), which fails the same way on unmodified `main` on this Mac (Bun 1.4.0); CI runs Bun 1.4.2. - Every PR merged since v0.4.6 was checked against the changelog section: all 47 are linked. ## Release After this merges and its CI on `main` passes: push `remote-v26`, wait for its release, then run the Release workflow with `0.4.7`.
