What Changed

Add opt-in Cua Driver computer use for Codex sessions on current main. The environment owns a default-off setting; eligible sessions receive a managed MCP configuration while existing user Cua configuration takes precedence.

The desktop app hosts the native driver and passes its MCP descriptor over the existing private control pipe to its primary backend. Standalone servers can supply a driver executable through T3CODE_CUA_DRIVER_PATH. Disabling the setting stops managed access without restarting the backend. Startup and shutdown waits are bounded. Late native calls retain their host until cleanup can safely finish, with regression coverage for cancellation and failure.

Cua Driver SDK and release assets are pinned to 0.24.0, with verified archive checksums and platform bundle staging. The native SDK remains external to the server and desktop main-process bundles so its native libraries and loaders can resolve correctly.

Why

Reimplements the focused computer-use integration from #5533 against current main, without the older orchestration branch history. Managed Cua is separate from agent browser access and is injected only into interactive Codex sessions. Other providers and a computer-view preview are outside this change. Mobile can direct sessions on an already configured host; setup is on web/desktop.

Validation

  • 417 focused tests pass (337 integration/provider/configuration tests and 80 packaging tests), covering settings defaults/patches, user configuration precedence, Codex MCP injection and browser independence, concurrent acquisition, revocation, failure/late cleanup, primary-only desktop control, and packaging.
  • Server, desktop, web, contracts, and packaging-script TypeScript checks pass. Targeted lint passes with existing warnings.
  • Server and desktop bundles build. SDK import succeeds on Node 24.19.0 and Electron 44.1.0's Node runtime.
  • Packaging resolver/staging tests pass for the supported asset layouts; release archives were checked against the pinned hashes. A production-style pnpm stage loads the embedded and Electron SDK entry points with both required macOS arm64 native package families present.

Integrated verification

  • Isolated web client: default-off, enable with server-config readback, reset, and settings search pass. Agent browser access remains enabled independently.
  • Linux Fleet VM (Ubuntu 24.04 x86_64/X11): exact PR source builds and runs as an Electron 44.1.0 desktop with isolated state. T3's real Codex session startup requests the Electron native host over the private control pipe and injects its MCP descriptor into Codex CLI 0.153.4. The managed host runs in standard permission mode.
  • A probe using that actual injected descriptor lists native windows, captures accessibility and screenshots, and enters text in a native GTK fixture. A fresh screenshot and independent fixture readback confirm the text.
  • Resetting Cua in the desktop UI stops the managed host and makes the old MCP connection fail while T3, Codex, and the native fixture remain running. Re-enabling and starting a fresh session restores native access.

Remaining verification

No provider credentials were copied to the VM, so an authenticated model turn invoking native tools is not claimed. Linux verification used built desktop bundles, not a packaged AppImage. Packaged macOS permission attribution and Windows execution remain unverified. Cua Driver 0.24.0's Electron text input failed in this Xvnc guest; GTK accessibility input passed. These remaining platform gaps are explicit review limitations; the PR is open for maintainer review.

Implemented with Codex; plan debated with Claude Code using claude-fable-5-1 at medium effort.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~90 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8ba05

A code path that manages access to computer-use tooling can, in a narrow restart scenario, keep serving a stale session configuration (including previously granted managed computer-use access) after credential issuance fails to renew it. This should be fixed before merge to avoid unintended persistence of managed access or stale provider credentials; it is a scoped, low-effort fix in the provider session-preparation logic.

The actionable cleanup finding is fixed in 201eb13 with a regression test. I am leaving the automated docstring-coverage warning unchanged: AGENTS.md asks for comments that explain usage or non-obvious constraints and discourages documentation that restates code. Adding docstrings solely to meet the percentage would conflict with that guidance.

`build-exe` rejected the bundle because CuaDriver reached the SDK through
`import()`, which cannot load file-backed modules inside a Node SEA. Load it
through createRequire like node-pty and fff-node; the package only exposes an
`import` export condition, so resolve its directory and require the entry
file by absolute path. The web build also failed on third-party license
generation because @trycua/cua-driver and @ubjs/* ship no notice file; add
repository overrides for both upstreams.

Verified by building the linux-x64 CLI archive and running Codex with the
managed Cua MCP against a headless Xvfb display.

Drop the promise wrapper and node:fs/node:path usage from the SDK loader.
The loader is now a lazy Effect.fn over FileSystem and Path, fails with
CuaDriverSdkLoadError directly, and the standalone factory takes it as a
plain Effect so tests inject Effect.succeed / Effect.fail instead of async
thunks. createRequire stays because it is the only way a single-executable
reaches a file-backed package.

Cua injection lived inside the Codex adapter, so only Codex sessions got
computer use. ProviderService now acquires the managed driver once per
session and records its MCP descriptor beside the T3 credential; each
adapter maps that descriptor onto its own stdio MCP shape. Codex keeps
its user-configuration precedence check but no longer owns the driver.

Turning on Cua computer use only wrote a setting; the macOS permission
prompts appeared on the next agent session, if at all. On the desktop
that owns the environment, the switch now opens a permission checklist
for Accessibility and Screen Recording, built on the same system
permission IPC the Safari import uses, and only turns on once both are
granted. Other clients enable it and point to the host.

The SDK resolves its native library relative to its own module file and
dlopens it, which fails with ENOTDIR inside app.asar. Electron only
redirects .node addons to the unpacked tree. Import the SDK entry points
from app.asar.unpacked in a packaged app and unpack the SDK packages on
every platform so the resolver finds real files.

Clear the previous MCP provider session when credential issuance returns no credential.

A restarted thread can already have an entry in McpProviderSession. If issueMcpCredential returns undefined, this branch leaves that entry unchanged. The adapter then reads the stale endpoint, token, and cuaDriver descriptor. This can attach managed CUA after the current preparation declined it.

Clear the thread entry before returning without a credential.

Proposed fix
       const credential = yield* issueMcpCredential({ threadId, providerInstanceId, capabilities });
+      if (!credential) {
+        McpProviderSession.clearMcpProviderSession(threadId);
+        return credential;
+      }
-      if (credential) {
         const deviceEnvironment = capabilities.has("device")
           ? yield* agentDeviceEnvironment
           : undefined;
         const cua = yield* managedCuaDriver;
         yield* Effect.sync(() =>
           McpProviderSession.setMcpProviderSession({

## Let agents use the host computer

**Cua computer use** lets agents control the machine running your T3 Code server
through Cua Driver. It is off by default, applies to the whole environment with no
project override, and is separate from **Agent browser access**. Every provider
receives it, unless you already configured a `cua-driver` MCP server of your own
for that provider.

Turn it on in **Settings > Integrations** with the host machine selected. On the
desktop app that owns the machine, T3 Code walks you through granting Accessibility
and Screen Recording before the switch turns on. The **Permissions** button next to
the switch reopens that check later. From another computer or phone, the switch turns
on immediately, but you still have to grant those permissions to T3 Code on the host.

Packaged T3 Code desktop includes Cua Driver. For a standalone server, set
`T3CODE_CUA_DRIVER_PATH` to the absolute path of your Cua Driver executable before
starting the server. Agent sessions started after enabling get the computer use tools.
Turning the switch off revokes T3 Code's managed access without touching MCP servers
you configured yourself.

macOS caches TCC answers per process. A driver host started before the
user granted Accessibility and Screen Recording kept reporting them as
denied for the rest of the app session. Finishing the permission dialog
now stops the running host and reports it to the server, so the next
agent session starts a driver that sees the new grants.

Cua tool calls rendered as raw MCP names such as mcp__cua-driver__click.
A shared presentation module now maps them to the same computer surface
Codex uses: a human title, the target app's icon, and a computer source.
Cua addresses apps by pid, so the module learns pid-to-app mappings from
list_apps, list_windows, and launch_app results. Claude, Codex, OpenCode,
and the ACP adapters attach the presentation to their item events.

Typing @ then an app name lists installed apps beside files while Cua
computer use is on for the environment. Picking one inserts an app chip
whose reference encodes the bundle id, so the record is rebuilt at send
time without a new draft store. The provider sees the app name, bundle
id, and how to reach it with the cua-driver tools. The server lists apps
through Spotlight on macOS and reports unsupported elsewhere.

…ered

Clients label a work row by its detail before its title. Claude, OpenCode,
and the ACP adapters filled detail with the raw request or output, so Cua
rows still read as mcp__cua-driver__click. Those rows now omit detail and
keep the call in the expanded body. Muted rows also darkened full-color
app icons with a brightness filter meant for glyphs; images keep only the
opacity.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Cua switch records intent, but nothing reported whether the host
could act. The driver now remembers why its last start failed until one
succeeds, and the apps list reports that so no client offers apps a
denied host cannot drive. On the desktop that owns the environment, the
settings row warns when Accessibility or Screen Recording is missing and
the @ palette hides apps until both are granted.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Claude streams tool input in deltas; the update that carries the final
input still attached the raw request summary, so most rows fell back to
mcp__cua-driver__click. That emit site now uses the shared presentation
too. Calls that address a window by element token carry no pid, so they
now resolve to the app the thread last touched instead of a generic mark.
The title table covers all 58 driver tools, pinned by a test.

🟠 High lib/composerContextRecords.ts:307

A 161–200 character app-reference label creates an AppContextRecord whose name exceeds the schema's 160-character limit, so the app context is dropped during decoding and the agent receives only the link without its application context. appContextRecordFromReference copies the normalized label unchanged; clamp name to 160 characters or omit the record before adding it.

appContextRecordFromReference accepts any nonempty normalized reference label as both label and name, but AppContextRecord.name is limited to 160 characters while inline-reference labels are accepted and normalized up to 200 characters. Pasting an app_ reference with a 161–200 character label therefore creates an invalid app record; OrchestrationMessageContext drops undecodable records, so the outgoing prompt keeps the app link but silently loses its app context instead of instructing the agent about the selected application.

A rejected checkSystemPermission query makes readCuaHostPermissions() return null, and cuaHostPermissionsReady(null) treats that result as ready. Thus a transient desktop bridge failure makes the enabled macOS desktop appear permission-ready, offering app mentions and suppressing the missing-permission warning without establishing either grant. Return a non-ready CuaHostPermissions value for query failures, reserving null for non-desktop/non-mac hosts.

Agents escalated to foreground delivery and left the user's windows open,
which steals focus and hides the thread they were watching. Attach a short
computer_use block to the runtime instructions of every provider whose
session actually has the managed cua-driver MCP server: keep the
background default, escalate only after a background action reports it did
not land, capture with get_window_state instead of bring_to_front, and
restore the desktop when done. Codex derives the flag from its app-server
args like the browser and device blocks; the other adapters read the
session's Cua descriptor.

Users driving Cua in background mode could not see what the agent was
doing; the screenshots it took stayed inside the provider's tool result and
the wire projection dropped them. Ingestion now writes the image from a
completed computer-use tool result to the browser-artifacts directory and
attaches its path, plus the window title, to the activity, which both
clients already render as a viewed image on the work-log row. The web
client also floats the newest capture in the preview mini player, refreshed
as the agent keeps looking, with the app icon and window title as caption.
Closing the card is remembered until the next capture; a browser or device
float the agent already has keeps its place.

The 0.24.0 SDK only exposed window capture through untyped callTool. 0.28.1
adds typed listWindows, listApps, and getWindowState, which the window
preview needs. Update the release archive pins and checksums for every
platform to match; the archive layouts are unchanged.

The floating computer-use card only refreshed when the agent chose to look,
so long stretches of clicking and typing showed a stale frame. Both host
paths now report the daemon's socket beside the MCP descriptor, and a
CuaWindowPreview service attaches its own typed SDK client to it. While a
turn is running and at least one client subscribes to the thread's
preview, it captures the window the agent last targeted (falling back to
the desktop) every 1.5 seconds with the accessibility walk skipped, and
pushes small frames over the app WebSocket. The loop stops, and the native
handle is released, as soon as the turn ends or the last subscriber leaves,
so a closed card costs the host nothing. The web card prefers the live
frame and keeps the agent's last screenshot between turns.

🟠 High state/cua.ts:16

Unmounting useCuaWindowPreview leaks the server-side ThreadPreview, so each viewed thread retains its PubSub and threads map entry for the server lifetime. The stream finalizer calls reconcile, but reconcile only deletes entries when preview.loop exists; idle or completed previews therefore accumulate for every distinct threadId.

subscribeCuaWindowPreview is now reachable by any token with AuthOrchestrationReadScope, but each distinct requested threadId is retained indefinitely. CuaWindowPreview.stream creates and stores a ThreadPreview; when its subscriber disconnects, reconcile only deletes the entry inside the preview.loop shutdown branch, so an idle preview (the normal case for nonexistent/non-CUA IDs) remains in threads. A read-scoped client can repeatedly subscribe using unique valid thread IDs and disconnect, causing unbounded server memory/PubSub accumulation and eventual resource exhaustion.

Computer-use rows showed the generic mark on Linux because the icon
resolver only knew macOS bundles. Split the resolver into per-platform
sources behind one cache: macOS keeps its Spotlight and sips path, and Linux
matches the app's X11 window class against freedesktop launchers
(StartupWMClass, then Name, then file name) and serves the Icon= file from
hicolor or pixmaps, PNG or SVG. A Windows source slots in the same way. Only
absolute icon paths are followed, and relative escapes are refused.
