📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds transcript lookup and local-day utilities, uses them in chat and group/activity rendering, and moves chat rows to shared context with memoized components.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Assign branch.current in an effect, not during render.
Line 1130 writes branch.current = messages during render. React can discard a concurrent render. If it does, onBranch reads a branch that never committed, and a citation click can be checked against the wrong branch. Update the ref in useLayoutEffect so it always holds the committed branch.
Proposed fix
const branch = useRef(messages);
- branch.current = messages;
+ useLayoutEffect(() => { branch.current = messages; }, [messages]);📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

🪛 React Doctor (0.9.14)
[error] 1130-1130: This ref is mutated during render. React can replay or discard render work, so the mutation can leak from UI that never commits.
Move ref writes into an event handler or effect. Render must stay pure because React can replay or discard it. The predictable null-guarded lazy initialization pattern remains supported.

Every store event re-rendered every mounted row of the open chat: the list and each bubble called useStore(), so another bot's busy flip or a tool chip patched elsewhere redrew all of them, and each user bubble rescanned the whole thread for its edit versions. Rows are memoized now. Bubble and ActivityChip take their message and shared callbacks that take the message they act on; what every row also reads (bot id and name, busy, the rosters for @mentions and avatars, the search focus, speech settings, the language) comes from one ChatRows context whose value changes only when one of those does. The rosters keep their identity until a field a row draws changes, as ThreadRefsProvider does. The read-aloud button takes the speech settings from it instead of following the whole store. A routine-run receipt still follows the store on its own, since it needs to know whether its thread exists. The visible branch is keyed on the transcript, not the whole bot, and the transcript window hands back its previous array when it holds the same messages. Edit versions, reply targets and the Retry row are worked out once per message list (src/lib/transcript-derivations.ts). Times and day labels come from cached formatters: formatTime keeps the system locale it always used, the shared dayLabel (1:1 chats and rooms) rebuilds its formatter when the app language changes, and new-day breaks compare whole local-day numbers. Separators take today's day number, so Today moves on to Yesterday after midnight as before. Deletes messageVersions, the bot prop on MessagesList, the per-bubble version scans and per-row reverse/find scans, and the second dayLabel. Adds happy-dom as a dev dependency for the render-count test. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Review fixes for the chat rows change.
- The read-aloud button read the paired Mac's voice choice ("This Mac" or
"Host voice") from local storage inside the button. With the button no
longer following the store, a switch stayed stale until the next busy
flip. ChatView now reads it once per store event and hands it to the rows
with the speech settings.
- resolveTranscriptWindow no longer hands back the previous window.
MessagesList takes the whole branch and its lookups, so it renders on any
branch change anyway; the reuse only skipped one grouping pass.
- Bubble loses isLastBotText: only the last answer gets onRegenerate, so
that prop already says it.

Compare
Resolves server/turn-resources.ts, server/turn-resources.test.ts and server/index.ts against #2258, which deleted the idle computer-release machinery (claim-idle.ts) from the same files this branch trims. The result keeps main's plain Map<string, TurnOwner> claims and this branch's exact-key blocker()/free(); workspaceResource() and overlaps() stay deleted, and the fs/path imports they needed go with them. Verified: tsc -p tsconfig.server.json clean; oxlint --deny-warnings clean on the changed files; vitest on the 7 touched files 76 passed, 1 skipped. tsc -b reports src/components/ChatView.tsx:950 "Cannot find name 'bot'", which is main's own (#2259 x #2261), byte-identical to origin/main here. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Unblocks main: `pnpm typecheck` fails on origin/main with src/components/ChatView.tsx(950,45): error TS2304: Cannot find name 'bot'. #2261 (ba6a6bd) moved the transcript rows into the memoized MessagesList, where `bot` is not in scope; #2259 (d6f3dfc), whose CI ran before #2261 merged, then rendered <ScreenFrame threadId={bot.threadId}> inside it. Each was green alone; together main does not typecheck, and every PR's CI now fails at `static`. MessagesList already reads `threadId` from useChatRows() (ChatView.tsx:835), fed with bot.threadId at the provider (ChatView.tsx:1133), so the row uses that value. Same thread id as before; the context already re-renders the rows when it changes. Co-authored-by: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Problem
Every store event re-rendered every mounted row of the open chat.
MessagesListand eachBubble,PeerLabelandActivityChipcalleduseStore(), so another bot's busy flip, a field of this bot no row shows, or one tool chip patched in the thread redrew all ~40 rows. Per render, each user bubble also rescanned the whole thread for its edit versions (messageVersions), each bubble searched the thread for its reply target, and the list copied and reversed the transcript twice.formatTimebuilt a new formatter on every call (every bubble, every day separator), anddayLabelwas duplicated in ChatView and GroupView.Change
Plan slice CP-07, with CP-05 inside it.
BubbleandActivityChiparememocomponents that take their message and shared callbacks that take the message they act on (onStartEdit(id),onSubmitEdit(id, text),onReply(message)). Whether a row is pinned, edited, the last answer, or has edit versions comes in as plain props.PeerLabelhas no store subscription now and renders with its bubble.ChatRows: bot id, name and voice,busy, the speech settings, the search focus for this thread, Show tool calls, the language,dispatch, and the bot roster. The value changes only when one of those changes. The roster keeps the same array until a field a row actually draws changes (name, colour, hidden, avatar fields, mascot), the same wayThreadRefsProviderkeeps the thread list.MessagesListno longer takesbot.[bot.messages, bot.activeLeafId]instead of the whole bot, so a bot frame that leaves the transcript alone keeps the list and its lookups. Plan item 3 also askedresolveTranscriptWindowto hand back the previous window array; that is not done (see Review fixes).src/lib/transcript-derivations.ts(transcriptLookups) works out edit versions, reply targets and the Retry row once each time the list changes.formatTimeuses one cachedIntl.DateTimeFormat. It keeps the system locale it always used, so its output is unchanged.dayLabelis now shared by 1:1 chats and rooms, and it rebuilds its formatter when the app language changes. New-day breaks compare whole local-day numbers (localDay) in chats, rooms and run grouping. Day separators take today's day number as a prop, so "Today" still becomes "Yesterday" at the first store event after midnight. Before, this only happened because every event redrew the whole list.No new settings, flags or UI. The desktop app, the browser UI of a headless server and Cloud all render the same component.
