Before this, a SendUserFile call show only its raw JSON input and a text output with local paths. The user cannot open those files from the web UI, specially not from a phone or another device. Now the chat read the call as its caption plus the files it name, and render each file with the same file link other tool calls already use (ToolFile). It open the same way a Read or Edit tool's path does today, so no new server route or access rule is added. Fixes devswha#434 (the "links only, no inline preview" scope the issue itself allow as a smaller first version; inline image preview can come later).

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Duplicate file paths produce duplicate React keys.
key={file} is not unique when files lists the same path twice. React then warns about duplicate keys. It can also drop or duplicate rows on re-render. sendUserFileCall does not deduplicate paths. Combine the path with the index so each key is unique.

…#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>

What
Fixes #434, with the scope the issue itself call a smaller first version: "Links only, no inline
preview". Inline image preview and the other ideas from the issue can come later, each its own PR.
A
SendUserFilecall today shows only its raw JSON input in the detail section, plus a text outputwith local paths like
/private/tmp/claude-.../scratchpad/image-a.png. The user cannot open thosefiles from the web UI, specially not from a phone or a browser on another device.
How
src/lib/sendUserFile.tsis a small pure function,sendUserFileCall, that read a tool call'sinput and answer its caption and the files it name, or null when the input is no such call. It has
its own test file (
sendUserFile.test.ts), written before the function (red, then green).ChatView.tsx'sToolInputViewgets one more case, the same shape as the existing ones forcontent/path: the caption as text, then each file through the existingToolFilecomponent.ToolFilealready opens a path with the same file viewer any other tool'sfile_path/pathalready opens (Read, Edit, Glob, and so on), so this adds no new server route, no new access rule,
and no change to what a pane's files a browser can already reach.
Test plan
bun run typecheckbun run buildbun run test:unit(newsendUserFile.test.tsred before the function existed, green after;full suite otherwise unchanged)
SendUserFileand open itfrom the chat (I could not run this, no herdr binary in this environment; the change reuses
ToolFile's existing, already-used-elsewhere open path, so I kept the new code to the pureparsing function covered by the unit test)
