ApprovabilityVerdict: Not approved Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This PR changes production behavior across server tab lifecycle, shared preview state, Electron rendering, streaming, and bridge cleanup when native attachment times out. Although the contract addition is backward-compatible and heavily tested, the cross-layer asynchronous behavior change is broader than a small self-contained fix. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more. |

Note This comment is posted by Julius' dot #16901 establishes the split-page bug, but its proposed fixes preserve a working page after the timeout. This patch instead makes desktop opens fail until a native page attaches; that issue also reports an intentional headless-browser workflow. Can a maintainer confirm whether error-and-retry is the intended fallback, or whether the headless page should remain usable and be streamed? The scope rule requires that product choice before review handoff. |
📝 Walkthrough
Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to On an attachment timeout, desktop-launched previews open a separate headless page instead of retrying on the signed-in native page, which the PR description says should not happen. Confirm the intended fallback and align the code, tests and description before merging. Security Architecture Review

PreviewManager.open after ensureTab times out, so unattached sessions count
toward both server and per-agent tab limits; alternatively, expire and close
those sessions when attachment fails so they cannot remain outside capacity
accounting.

Note This comment is posted by Julius' dot Preserving and streaming the headless page addresses the earlier direction question. The PR says the after screenshots and interaction recording are still local. I'm moving this to draft until those are attached or linked, as required by the verification rule. Show the shared page and its input/floating behavior, then mark it ready for review. |

Problem and behavior
On a desktop-launched server, a Browser tab can miss the native webview attachment deadline while its thread is in the background. The server opens a usable headless page, but the desktop later draws its own independent native page for that tab. Agent actions and the user's Browser panel then reach different pages.
Keep the existing headless fallback working and stream that same page in the desktop panel. The server announces its backing page before launching headless. Once headless is selected, late native attachment, detachment, and a failed-launch retry cannot replace it with another page. Headless popups announce their mode in the initial snapshot. Closing during attachment or creation releases the pending page instead of resurrecting the tab.
The optional snapshot field
serverPageModereaches the existing renderer predicate, so the Electron host releases its native guest and both the panel and floating preview useServerBrowserSurface. Native overlays and late status callbacks cannot override stream controls. Missing mode retains legacy behavior. Mobile already streams server tabs.Scope and review feedback
Fixes the remaining attachment-timeout path in #16901. Maintainer triage establishes the split-page failure and expected shared page; the mechanism remains subject to maintainer review.
This revision replaces the earlier error-and-retry proposal following the direction question. Julius’ subsequent feedback confirms that preserving and streaming the headless page addresses that direction question; the requested after screenshots and input/floating recordings are linked below. Working headless tabs again count toward the existing tab limits, resolving the capacity finding. No new expiry policy or capacity mechanism is added.
#16620 separately handles environment-wide hydration. This PR does not duplicate it, migrate native sign-in state into headless, or change capture/compositing, CDP context recovery, or browser host routing. An inactive thread's old client cache still needs the authoritative list/event before its renderer can switch.
Verification
Base:
ed0f7b908b2e7b3a22e6fd82a73794c2fe6ee06e. The new regression test fails on unchanged base production files withexpected undefined to be 'headless', then passes on this revision. It checks that the authoritative backing mode is visible before Chromium launches and that the chosen page survives late native events.Focused checks, all exit 0:
git diff --checksucceeded. Web lint reports three warnings on source expressions/dependency lists already present before this revision; baseline lint was not rerun.test-t3-appthrough T3's own Browser with isolated worktree state. A real Chromium headless page rendered in the panel; keyboard/click input changed its form state, and floating/reopening the stream retained that state. Its received snapshot hadruntime: serverandserverPageMode: headless.Visual evidence and limits
Reported before: split-page screenshot, with a working foreground control in #16901.
After, on this revision with a real headless stream in the isolated web client:
Input recording (focus, keyboard entry and Apply):
headless-ui-input.mp4
Floating recording (panel → floating → panel, “Hi” retained):
headless-ui-floating.mp4
The native deadline and renderer transition are covered by controlled service/component tests; the manual pass runs the web client and real stream, not a newly built Electron app. This extracted revision has not been installed into the main app. It does not demonstrate preservation of a formerly native page's sign-in/state after permanent detachment. Concurrent-open capacity limitations are unchanged.
