Record a steer where the model read it, not where it was typed
A message sent while an answer was streaming was recorded in the middle of that answer and above the tool call it ended with. The model had committed to that call in the same message it was already writing, so it had read none of it -- and on screen the tool result underneath read as something the steer had asked for. The answer also split into two bubbles around a message that was not part of it. The driver announced a steer at "the next assistant text or tool call", on the reasoning that anything the CLI says next is proof it has been round the model again. With --include-partial-messages that is not true: the deltas and the tool_use block of a message already in flight keep arriving afterwards, and none of them saw the steer. `message_start` is what actually proves it. The CLI sends the previous call's tool results back before it opens the next assistant message, so that line is the first moment anything written since can have been read -- and it carries no events of its own, which is what makes it a place to put one. Verified against 2.1.237: message_start, the blocks, the tool_result, then the next message_start. The end of the turn stays as the other half, and is the case that must not be lost: a message typed after the final model call has no later message_start, and one that is only recorded when announced would otherwise vanish while a phone drew it as still waiting. Checked live on haiku, before and after. Before: the steer landed at seq 37 among the essay's deltas, with the tool call at 45 and its result at 46. After: essay whole, tool call 42, result 43, steer 44. Also checked the case this had no reason to touch -- a steer sent during a 30-second Bash call, which was already correct -- and it still records after the result. The two tests fail on the old rule; the failure prints the old order, which is the bug. |

Say how long is left, not that the window is five hours
The bar read "31% of 5h", which is the one thing about the window a reader already knows. What decides whether to start something now is how long what is left has to last: 80% with twenty minutes to go and 80% with four hours to go are opposite answers, and the second number was a screen away on the usage screen. It now reads "31% - 2h 36m left", and the countdown is driven by a clock the refresh loop advances rather than computed at draw time. A percentage that comes back unchanged is an equal value, so Compose skips the recomposition -- a "left" recomputed only when the quota happens to move would have sat at a stale figure for hours while looking live. A window can arrive with no reset time, so that keeps its own wording: "reset time unknown" rather than "refresh soon", which would be a recommendation nothing measured. Under a minute, including past the end, is "refresh soon" -- "0m left" reads as a measurement. The span arithmetic was already on the usage screen, so it moves into `ResetCountdown.kt` and both callers supply their own sentence. That screen still reads "resets in 2h 37m" and "resets in 5d 21h", checked on the emulator alongside the bar it was not part of changing. The fill is blue rather than the scheme's primary: the bar sits under every session header, on a screen somebody opened to do something else, and it reports a quantity rather than a verdict. The usage screen is still where the same number turns yellow and then red, for a reader who went there to be told where the limits are. Also declares this project's resources for Dev Updater, whose declaration schema changed in d27b5a3: `resources.ron` says ai-app keeps its state as `ai-app`, so the Uninstall dialog offers the real directories instead of saying it cannot tell where they are. Only the name, because both XDG places are the conventional ones. What that dialog's config toggle would delete includes the CA under `certs`, which strands every phone running an APK pinned to it -- noted where somebody would be standing when it matters. |

Take the CLI's word for a clear instead of inferring it
Bryan reported no divider when clearing. It was not this code -- the backend serving him started at 17:06, three hours before `Event::Cleared` existed, so it has no such event to send and `/clear` reaches it as an unrecognised passthrough. Verified against a current build: the event is recorded. Probing the CLI to establish that turned up something better than what was here. `/clear` in stream-json mode emits a dedicated `conversation_reset` line and *then* a fresh `init` with the new session id -- so watching the id be replaced, which is what this did, was reading the event through one of its side effects. The announcement says it directly, and it arrives first, so the divider now lands above the new conversation rather than after its opening line. That also removes the reasoning the previous commit needed about which id changes count. There is one signal now instead of an inference with two exceptions, and the test that used to pin those exceptions became `an_init_alone_is_never_a_clear`, which covers all three ways an init arrives: a session's first, the one a compaction re-announces with the same id, and the one following a resume. The resume token still follows the id, unchanged -- one CLI event with two observable effects, and each half now reads the half it needs. Verified end to end against a real claude-cli session: message, /clear, message, and the transcript reads userMessage / assistantText / cleared / userMessage, in that order. 74 tests, clippy and rustfmt clean.

Stop claiming a terminal, and stop calling a recoverable delete final
Two bugs Bryan hit, with one shape between them: a claim stronger than the thing that was measured. **The delete warning branched on `imported`.** It told him deleting `ai-app` could be undone and deleting `manager` could not, when both are claude-cli sessions whose conversations survive equally. `imported` records how a session got into the app; what decides recoverability is whether the *driver* keeps its own record -- the Claude Code CLI does, under ~/.claude/projects, however the session started; echo and llama.cpp do not, and for those the app's transcript is the only copy. So the fact now sits on DriverKind and rides on SessionInfo, decided by the server from the provider's kind rather than by the phone from its name, which a person can change. The comment above the branch asserted "a session started here has no copy anywhere". That sentence was the bug written down and reasoned from, and it is gone. Neither branch promises a restore, which it should not: nothing here checks the file is still on disk, and re-importing was never a restore anyway -- this app's transcript holds images, peer messages and command events the CLI's record never had. So the recoverable text says what is known and names what goes either way. "Can't be undone" is now said only where it is true, which is the point of saying it at all. **"open in a terminal -- close it there first" named a place that need not exist.** The detection is right and worth keeping: something live holds that session, and importing it would reproduce the double-resume incident. But which something was never measured. The live descriptors here include two of this backend's own adopted sessions and a peer agent's; none is a terminal, so the instruction sent the reader looking for a window that was not there. **And this app did not recognise its own spawned sessions.** The import list filters out what the app is already driving, but it matched only the import cursor -- which exists solely for imported sessions. Every session the app spawned therefore stayed in the list, marked in use, telling the reader to go and close it somewhere: here. Matching the resume token too, which both kinds have, is the fix; `session_importing` is now `session_driving`, because that is what it was always being asked. Verified on the emulator against a scratch backend: a spawned claude-cli session reports keepsOwnTranscript true with imported false -- Bryan's `manager` case exactly -- and draws the recoverable warning; the echo session draws "can't be undone"; and once the CLI named itself, the spawned session's id was absent from the import list, where the old match would have listed it. 75 tests, clippy and rustfmt clean; ktfmt, compileDebugKotlin and lintDebug clean.

Record the clear that happened, not the one that was asked for
`ClaudeDriver::clear` emitted `Event::Cleared` beside the `/clear` it sent, so the divider recorded a request. A reader scrolling back takes that mark as a fact about the conversation -- the session no longer has what is above this -- and a request is a different claim from a result. Compaction already gets this right by taking its mark from the CLI's own `compact_boundary` rather than from somebody pressing Compact; this is the same rule, and it was the one place left applying it to the request. Caught in review by the session this was measured against, which also established that the CLI's `/clear` is declared `supportsNonInteractive` and returns empty text with no result line -- so a fresh `init` bearing a different `session_id` is the only trace it leaves. The reader already watches for exactly that in order to persist the resume token, so the mark now goes out there. It has to be a *replacement* rather than any change, and the tests pin both ways of getting that wrong. The first `init` sets the id from nothing, which would otherwise open every session with a divider announcing a clear that never happened. And a compaction re-announces `init` carrying the *same* id, which would otherwise draw a clear on top of the compaction's own mark -- that one was found by writing the test rather than by reasoning about the change. 73 tests, clippy clean, rustfmt clean.

Tell "nothing to meter" apart from "couldn't find out"
Found by looking at the bar on an echo session rather than by reading the diff: it said "5-hour usage unknown -- this machine reports no usage", which is the failure the rest of this file was written to avoid, one level up. A machine with no metered provider is never asked by the backend, so it returns no snapshot for it. The bar read that silence as a failed lookup, because Unavailable was the nearest word it had -- and a session on `echo`, or on a local llama.cpp, has no paid quota at all. That is a fact about how somebody set the machine up, not a question that went unanswered, and reporting it as unknown nags about a deliberate choice on every screen forever. So the state exists now: NotMetered, drawn as nothing, because there is nothing. Unavailable keeps its words and its reason and still covers the three ways an answer can fail -- nobody logged in, machine unreachable, snapshot without the window. Verified on the emulator against the real endpoint: a setup carrying claude-cli draws the bar at 22% of 5h, selected by kind "session"; the no-snapshot path was the one on screen before this change, so it is reached, and this only changes what it draws.

Clear from the phone, and put the numbers where they are read
Four changes to the session screen, three of them Bryan's and one that
fell out of them.
**/clear is offered like any other session command.** It joins
SESSION_COMMANDS, so it suggests itself while being typed and goes out
through the command endpoint that /compact already uses -- no new path,
and the boundary pump holds it mid-turn exactly as it holds a compaction.
**A clear draws a divider, not a deletion.** `Event::Cleared` becomes a
ClearedNote row saying that everything above stays here and is no longer
sent. That sentence is the row's whole job: the reader can see the
conversation is still on screen, so without it the divider reads as
something having been thrown away, which is the one thing it is not. It
carries no counts, because nothing was measured -- a compaction's
numbers are real and there is no equivalent here to report.
Compaction and clear now share `TranscriptDivider`. They are the same
kind of mark to somebody scrolling back -- "the session no longer has
what is above this" -- and the difference belongs in the words rather
than in how they are drawn, so the styling is written once and cannot
drift.
**The five-hour usage bar sits under the session header.** It reports
the paid service's own metering for the machine this session runs on,
fetched from that machine, refreshed every minute off the backend's
cache. It is never derived from the transcript's token counts: those are
a different quantity measured differently, and a quota-shaped bar built
out of them would be a guess wearing a measurement's clothes. Not
knowing has its own appearance and its own words -- "unknown" and why --
because a bar resting at zero because a machine is unreachable reads as
plenty of headroom, which is the opposite of the truth. The window is
selected by the API's own `kind` ("session"), added to UsageWindow in
this change, rather than by matching the label a person reads.
**The token total moved from the header to the bottom right of the
transcript**, pinned above the input rather than scrolling with it. In
the header it was one item in a run of dot-separated facts about the
session and read as another of them, rather than as the running total it
is.
SessionSummary now carries the setup id, which it deliberately did not.
The stated reason was that nothing here addressed a setup and holding
both id and name invited showing the wrong one; the usage bar addresses
one, so the reason lapsed rather than being overruled, and the comment
now carries the rule that replaces it: never display it. The server has
always sent the field, so nothing changed on the wire.
ktfmt, compileDebugKotlin and lintDebug all clean.

Let a session drop its context without ending
Adds `Event::Cleared`, `SessionCommand::Clear`, and `Driver::clear`, so
`POST /sessions/{id}/command {"text": "/clear"}` does for a session what
the CLI's own `/clear` does for a terminal.
The marker is a divider, not a truncation: everything above it stays in
the transcript, because that is the only copy of the conversation the
phone has and a person scrolling back is a different question from what
the model is given. It also makes clearing mean one thing across
drivers -- `claude` sends `/clear` and the CLI answers with a fresh
`init` whose new session_id the reader already persists as the resume
token, so the next launch resumes the cleared conversation with nothing
to keep in step; `llama` needs no state at all, since `conversation()`
already folds the transcript and now folds from the last marker; `echo`
emits the marker alone, so the phone's divider and scroll behaviour can
be exercised without spending a real session's context.
That fold is why `Cleared` is documented as load-bearing rather than
decorative. For any driver that rebuilds its conversation from the
transcript, this marker decides what the model sees, and treating it as
something only the phone draws would silently put the cleared
conversation back in front of the model at full price.
Clear rides the existing boundary pump like any other SessionCommand, so
one arriving mid-turn waits exactly as a compaction does, and nothing
grows a second way to wait.
Removes `--autocompact` in the same change, because clearing is the
cheaper answer to the problem it was added for and Bryan would rather
manage context that way. Keeping the measurement here, since it was the
reason for the constant and is worth more than the constant was:
context returned to 70-85k within ten calls of a compaction; a
compaction took 104,346 to 147,671 ms; compaction cost that session
2,655,508 tokens across six boundaries, of which the single automatic
one at the 1M ceiling was 1,696,870. Clearing costs nothing, because
nothing is sent.
70 tests, clippy clean, rustfmt clean.

Raise the compaction window to 200k
100k is the cheapest window on tokens and the wrong one to sit in front of. Measured on the session this was written against: context returns to 70-85k within ten calls of a compaction, so a 100k window compacts about every thirteen calls, and a compaction takes roughly two minutes (durationMs 104,346 to 147,671 across the six recorded). A 130-call request would have spent some twenty minutes compacting -- optimising the number that was asked about while making the thing somebody actually waits for on a phone considerably worse. 200k keeps most of the saving against the 1M ceiling and halves the stalls. The comment now also says what the window does not do, because measuring this turned up the opposite of what the byte counts suggested. Images are 93% of the bytes that tool calls put into that transcript but only 8% of the context growth -- the adb wrapper's downscaling holds a screenshot to a median of 476 tokens, while text-only calls add a median of 740 and a mean of 1,139. So the file is large because of screenshots and the context is large because of ordinary tool output, and only the second one is what this constant governs.

Attribute the drift to the CLI's ceiling, not to a manual compaction
The reasoning on AUTOCOMPACT_WINDOW cited 491,562 tokens as where "the CLI compacted it". That was a manual /compact somebody ran, not the CLI's own trigger, so the comment credited a person's intervention to the automatic behaviour it was arguing about. Caught in review by the session whose transcript it was measured from. Corrected from that transcript's compaction boundaries: the window left to `auto` was 1M, and the one automatic compaction fired at preTokens 1,000,184 with the API context peaking at 999,668. So the drift ceiling is twice what the comment said, and near it a single tool call bills about 100k tokens rather than 49k. The correction strengthens the case, but it also changes what the example is evidence *of*, which is why it was worth fixing rather than just raising the number: what held that session together was the person in it running /compact by hand four times, and the 4.2-million-token request happened at the merely-large contexts left between those. The constant is for the sessions where nobody is doing that. No behaviour change. 68 tests, clippy clean, rustfmt clean.

Put the compaction window's reasoning on the compaction window

Compact at 100k rather than letting a phone session drift
Left at `auto` the CLI picks a very large window, which suits a terminal session somebody closes at the end of the day and does not suit this app at all: these run for hours, nobody closes them, and the transcript carries screenshots. One session here reached 491,562 tokens of context before the CLI compacted it. That matters because every API call re-reads the whole context, and one request is not one call. At half a million tokens a single tool call bills about 49k before it does anything, so "can you make it so you can rename a session?" cost 4.2 million tokens across the 130 calls it took. Measured over that session's life: 2,498 calls, 1.08 billion cache-read tokens. 100k is the smallest window the CLI accepts and roughly the cheapest. Per-call cost falls with the cap, while the compaction it forces costs about the same in total either way -- a smaller window compacts more often, but each pass is proportionally smaller. What it trades is how much detail survives a compaction, which is a real cost to the work and the reason this is one named constant with the reasoning written down rather than a computed value. Passed before the resume/name branch, so it applies to adopted and imported sessions too -- which are the large ones, and the ones this is for. Verified: the exact argument list the app now spawns starts, accepts an empty stream-json stdin and exits 0, so the flag combination is good without spending a token. 68 tests, clippy clean, rustfmt clean.

Trim what every session pays to load
Measured: an app-spawned session starts at ~33,200 tokens of context, of which ~20,000 is written fresh on every spawn -- the always-loaded rule files and this file -- and only ~13,200 comes from a shared cache. That 20,000 is billed at 1.25x on every single session start. This file drops to 19,882 bytes from 21,293. What went is narrative that PLAN.md already carries in more detail (the phase history, the submodule drift story) and the parts of "Where things run" that MACHINE.md states once for every project. What stayed is every operational fact: the commands, the llama.cpp and ssh test recipes, the import rules, and everything under "Things that have bitten". The global chain was trimmed in the same pass, 43,039 -> 34,069 bytes, mostly by moving the Gentoo host build profile out of the @import chain into ~/.claude/HOST_BUILD.md, which MACHINE.md now points at. Nothing was deleted there either; it is referenced rather than loaded, the same arrangement this file has with PLAN.md. Worth being honest about the size of the win: ~10,400 bytes is roughly 2,200 tokens off each session start. It is real and permanent, but it is not what makes a long session expensive.

Make a command a thing the app knows, and hold it until it can run
Typing "/" now suggests what this app understands -- `/compact` and `/rename <name>` -- with a line each about what they do, and anything else beginning with a slash is passed to whatever runs the session, because a dialect's own vocabulary grows without this list. None of them are messages, and that is the substance of the change. A line written into a running turn is read by the *model*, so a command sent mid-turn either does nothing or arrives as text somebody has to puzzle over. They now wait for the turn to end. The waiting is done once for every provider, in the pump that already watches every event for the boundary, rather than in each driver where a new provider could get it wrong by leaving it out. Waiting is a state, so it is on screen: the command sits at the reader's end of the conversation in blue, with a spinner and "waiting for this turn to end", and becomes an ordinary blue row when it goes. Blue because these are about the session rather than about the task -- the same blue a compaction already used, which is now one colour with one name rather than two. Renaming from the settings screen sends exactly this, so it waits and draws the same way. The name itself is not held: it is this server's own datum, so the list and the header change at once and only telling the session waits. Echo grew the same split, which is where the bug in it showed: its commands are its messages, so running one announced a `MessageTaken` as well, and the same line drew twice -- once blue, once purple. A command owes no announcement; the manager has already recorded that it was sent. Watched rather than reasoned about: `/compact` during a 25 second turn held with its bubble up, went out when the turn ended, and the compaction that followed reported what it recovered. |

Carry a question in the event model, not in one provider's JSON
A question is now fully described by the event that reports it: the tag it was asked under, each option's label, what it means, and the sample of what picking it would produce, plus whether several may be picked at once. The app renders from that alone. It had been reading Claude Code's tool input to find the parts the event dropped -- that dialect's schema, written out a second time in Kotlin, where no other provider could reach it and where it would drift the first time the schema moved. Echo could not describe an option at all, and llama never will. Answers travel as a list for the same reason. A question that takes one answer sends a list of one rather than being a different shape, and the one place that flattens it is where the CLI is spoken to: its answers map holds a string, so several choices are joined there. That join was in the phone. Also here because it is the same rule: the permission ask reuses the question body rather than owning a second one, so Allow/Deny renders and resolves through exactly the code an AskUserQuestion does. Verified against both, since a refactor that only satisfies the case it was written for has been tried on the half that cannot fail: a two question `/ask` answered from the phone, one option and then two, and a real sonnet session's `rm -f` permission asked, allowed, and run. |

Show every option a question offers, on the call that asked
Reported by Iris through the dev-updater session: a two-question AskUserQuestion arrived with only one option visible per question, so the answer she sent was the only one she had been offered. The cause was a `Row`. It hands out intrinsic widths in order and clips whatever runs past the edge, so the first option or two drew and the rest went off the side of the screen -- which does not read as a bug, it reads as those having been the only choices. The same Row was in the permission ask beside it; both wrap now. That pairing is the reason to look: a rule stated on one member of a set is usually missing from the others. The rest of what she asked for, and what each was: - It drew twice, as the tool call and again as loose question cards, because the backend marked these questions as belonging to no call. They belong to the call that asked, and now say so. - So it renders like any other tool: one card, its own heading, opened because a decision cannot be made from a closed row. - Each option shows its description and its `preview` block, which is the part a reader is deciding on and none of which was reaching them. - "Other" is a field on every question. The harness always offers it, so leaving it out narrowed a question that was never that narrow. - A multi-select sends the labels it collected as one string, which is the tool's own schema rather than a guess -- its answers map is string-valued. - No spinner while it waits. A spinner says the machine is working; here the machine is idle and the turn is stopped on the person, so the card says "your turn" in the colour this app already uses for that. Verified against a real session as well as the echo fixture: haiku asked two questions with three described options each, both were answered from the phone, and the model carried on with the answers. Echo grew `/ask` so the shape can be looked at without paying a model to produce one, and its option cards are outlined rather than tinted -- as one surface step up they were three paragraphs where three things to press should be. |

Delete one session without putting the rest through loading
Pressing Delete refetched the whole list on success, so every other row went back through its loading state and the reader got a blank screen for the length of a round trip -- to report on something that was never in doubt. Now the row being deleted fades, says so where its status goes, and stops responding to taps; when the server answers, that one row is removed and nothing else moves. A refusal keeps the row, because it is still there: the server answered and said no, so the session it said no about is exactly as it was, and the error goes on its own card as it already did. Faded rather than removed on the way out, deliberately. Taking the row away when Delete is pressed is a promise about a request that has not been answered, and putting it back when the server refuses is worse than never having taken it away. Looked at rather than reasoned about: the in-flight state lasts milliseconds against a local server, so I slowed the delete route to four seconds, watched the faded row and its spinner, watched it removed on success, then killed the server and watched a refusal leave the row in place with the reason on it. |

Let a session be renamed, under the same name everywhere
A gear at the end of the session's own bar opens what can be changed about that session; the name is the first thing there. Compact is gone from that bar -- `/compact` typed into the message box is the CLI's own way to ask and it already worked, so the button was a second way to say one thing. Echo takes the typed word too now, since it is the rig the compaction display is checked against and losing the button would have taken that with it. The name is this server's, not a driver's: it is what the list shows, it exists before any process does, and every provider has one. So it is settled in the config and the driver is *told* -- which is the opposite of the model and the permission mode, and the difference is written down at `Driver::set_title`. A driver whose process has no notion of a name does nothing and says nothing, because there is no failure to report. Claude Code has one, so the name reaches it: `--name` for a session we create, and `/rename` afterwards, which is a local command rather than a control request -- `set_session_name` is not a subtype it knows, which I established by asking it. A resumed session is deliberately not renamed at launch: an import already has a name, quite possibly one the person typing in it chose, and taking that would be helping itself to something the app was only shown. Verified end to end rather than argued: renaming from the phone put "Session renamed to: paging and scroll" in the CLI's own session file, and the session now lists under that name to other agents. The gear is drawn rather than set in a font, for the reason Chevron gives. It was a sun on the first attempt -- thin teeth standing clear of a thin hub -- which no amount of reading the diff would have shown. |

`complete_lines` splits on `\n` only, which is right -- this stream is JSONL, and a record terminated by a bare `\r` would not be a record -- but the doc comment said why the remainder is held without saying what decides where a line ends. Worth the sentence because of what the failure would look like if the CLI ever wrote such a line: the session goes quiet, the process is healthy, nothing errors, and the cause is a line splitter. The dev-updater session hit exactly this shape today reading cargo's progress line, which is `\r`-terminated for redrawing in place, and lost a whole build's worth of output to it. |

Call the server component "server", to match dev-updater
READ BEFORE PULLING. A Managed component's service unit is named <config key>-<component name>, so this rename moves the unit from ai-app-backend to ai-app-server and nothing points at the old one afterwards. Uninstall the backend component from its card *first*, while it is still called "backend"; then pull, accept the new declaration -- .dev-updater.ron is a request, so the card shows it as pending -- and build. The unit installs under the new name. Two things reset rather than break, both keyed by component name: the per-component built_from sha, and the build and runtime logs. One build makes the sha current again. Also drops the claim that the components list is walked in order. They have built in parallel since 2026-08-28, so the reasoning the comment gave -- backend first, so a failing APK leaves the phone what it had -- no longer describes what happens.

Show the model and mode the session has, not the ones it was asked for
Picking either from the phone wrote the choice straight into the session's state and then sent the request. Asking and having are different things, and the difference is not rare: `auto` is a permission mode the CLI accepts on the command line, silently resolves to `default`, and refuses outright over the control channel -- "auto mode unavailable for this model" -- so a session spawned in auto was in default and one switched to auto stayed where it was, with the phone reporting auto in both cases. So the drivers report what they are set to and the manager follows that. Measured, because the confirmations are not uniform: a model change answers success with no value, so what was asked is remembered until the answer arrives; a mode change echoes the mode it became, and that answer wins over the request; and `init` names both -- resolving `haiku` to claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 -- which also covers a session adopted from a terminal that set them outside this app. A driver that cannot change either already says so with an error, and now that error is the whole story rather than a note beside a display that changed anyway. The config keeps the requested value, deliberately: that answers a different question, which is what to launch this session with next time. Two things fall out. Control request ids are random rather than the clock, because two in the same second shared an id and something now looks them up. And the phone shortens a resolved name for the button -- `haiku-4-5` -- since the full one is what the CLI reports and roughly twice the room that row has once Stop is in it. |

Say when a session is working, and what it was told
Three things a phone could not see, all of them the same shape: the session was doing something and nothing on screen said so. A turn nobody here started never reported itself. `Running` was sent where a message was *sent*, so a session picked up mid-turn, one compacting on its own, or one another agent wrote to sat there reading as idle until it finished. The driver now says it from what it observes -- output that could only come from a turn in flight -- which is the same set of events that already announced a steer, with the ends swapped. An imported session had it worse: nothing but replayed lines ever reaches it, and a status was not among them, so it was permanently whatever it was when it was adopted. Its file does not record a turn ending, but it does record why each assistant message stopped, and `tool_use` versus anything else answers it. A record that says nothing leaves the status alone rather than voting for idle. Messages from other agents were dropped outright: the CLI marks them meta, and this replayed everything except meta. They are now a row of their own, closed by default like a tool call, named for the session that sent it -- not the reader's own bubble, because they did not say it, and a session working on something this phone never asked for is exactly what one of these explains. Measured against a real session file rather than guessed: the peer record carries the sender's name and the message body in `origin`, beside a copy wrapped for the model to read. |

Count the far end of the list in rows, not events
Scrolling back stopped dead at the top of what was loaded, and no older page ever arrived. Bryan spotted the cause from the outside: it had to do with tool calls being collapsed. The trigger compared an index into the list being drawn against `items.size`, the number of transcript events. Those were the same number when it was written. They stopped being the same when adjacent tool calls started folding into one row, and the queued bubble and the working indicator are two more rows with no event behind them. In this session 645 rows stood in for 720 events, so the last visible index could reach 646 and the threshold it needed was 717. It was not close; it was unreachable, and the further a session went the worse it got. Both numbers now come from the list itself, which is the only place they are commensurable, and `totalItemsCount` counts whatever gets added to it next. Checked on the emulator against the case it was breaking on rather than a clean one: five collapsed "Called 8 tools" groups in front of a 720-event transcript, scrolled from the bottom to seq 1, which is the beginning of the session. It stops there because that is the top, and holds position while each page arrives. |

Say "unknown" for a session we are not driving but cannot bury
A session in the config with no live entry reported `Exited`, whatever the reason. That covers three different situations -- one that genuinely ended, one that failed to relaunch, and one whose process could not be checked -- and the wrong one is the expensive one. `Exited` reads as "this conversation is over", and what a reader does about it is start a fresh session. If the process is in fact still running, that is a second CLI against a conversation that already has one: the exact fault `session::process` exists to prevent, arriving through the status field instead of through a spawn. So it is said only when the process is known to be gone. A record that cannot be checked reports `Unknown`, and so does one that is still alive -- this server is not driving it, so it genuinely does not know what that process is doing, and the honest word is the one meaning "wait" rather than the one meaning "act". A session with no record at all is still `Exited`: an echo session, or one already stopped and cleaned up, and known to be. The distinction was available all along -- `process::recorded` returns the liveness -- which makes this the same mistake as the other five today: reporting what was convenient to compute rather than what was measured.

Hold the reader's place when a message arrives
Scrolled back through a conversation, every new message dragged the view with it -- which reads as the screen scrolling down on its own, at the exact moment somebody is trying to read something else. The list had no keys, so its rows were identified by position. The transcript is drawn newest-first, so a new message is an insertion at index 0: every existing row shifts up one index, the viewport stays on the index it was on, and the content slides through it. The working indicator appearing and disappearing did the same thing at the same end. So rows now carry the identity they always had in the data. Every transcript event has a seq, which is what the transcript is ordered by and never changes, and every row keeps the seq of the first event behind it -- a streaming message keeps the seq of its first delta, so it holds still for the whole answer rather than becoming a new row on every frame, and a tool call keeps its start's. Paging older history is the same insertion from the other end, and it is the thing this could plausibly have broken. Checked on the emulator: scrolled back mid-turn, the view sat still through twenty seconds of streamed deltas, and scrolling to the far end still fetched earlier pages and stayed where it was while they arrived. |

Show a compaction happening, and what it recovered
The Compacting status had been declared, rendered in four places, and never once emitted: no driver produced it, and the app had no control to ask for a compaction in the first place. Pressing nothing for two minutes and then quietly having less context was the whole experience. The CLI turns out to announce all of it, which was worth measuring rather than guessing at. Driven through /compact against 2.1.237 it emits a `status: "compacting"` line at the start, a `status: null` carrying `compact_result` at the end -- `"failed"` with a sentence saying why, when it does -- and then a `compact_boundary` with the token counts. The same records appear in the CLI's own transcript file with camelCase keys, which is the obvious place to read the shape off and gets every field name wrong. So none of it is inferred here. The driver writes the line and says nothing; the translator reports what the CLI reports. A failed compaction surfaces the CLI's own sentence, which is specific enough to act on. The counts are the part worth keeping afterwards, so they land in the transcript rather than only in a status that vanishes: a session that went from 128,402 tokens to 9,617 has just been given its context back. They are optional throughout, because a compaction whose size nobody reported has to be able to say so -- a zero would read as "recovered nothing". Also here, all found on the way: - `rename_all` renames variants; fields need `rename_all_fields`. Every field in Event was a single word until `pre_tokens`, which went out as snake_case, was not found by the app, and rendered as the "no counts reported" case -- a state it is allowed to be in, so nothing looked wrong. There is now a test on the wire names. - The unparseable-line warning sliced bytes, not chars, on output that is full of em dashes. A panic there kills the task reading the session's stdout, and the session goes deaf with nothing on screen. The other three truncations in the tree already did this correctly. - Echo compacts too, with invented numbers and a real shape, so this screen can be looked at without spending two minutes of somebody's account to reach the state. |

Send a steer into the running turn, and put an image under its call
**The queue was holding messages the CLI would have taken.** Two claims in this file contradicted each other: the module header said a mid-turn message is injected at the next tool boundary -- "the behavior this app exists for" -- and `Queue`'s own doc said a line written mid-turn simply becomes the next turn. The code followed the second, parking every message until `Status::Idle`, which is the end of the whole turn. Measured rather than argued, twice. Writing a line straight into a live session's stdin fifo mid-turn produced one `result` for the whole thing, so it was consumed inside that turn, not as a new one. The header was right and the queue was built on the wrong claim. The cost was exactly what Bryan reported: he steered after the second tool call and it sat unread until every remaining call had finished. Measured before and after on the same three-step turn -- steer sent at +13s, recorded at +24.7s before this change and at +14.1s after, which is the next tool boundary. So the line goes out immediately. What stays behind is the *announcement*: the CLI says nothing on stdout about having read a message, so `MessageTaken` now waits for the next assistant text or tool call, which is proof another model call happened and the steer was in it. That keeps a held message drawn below the working indicator until the session has actually taken it -- the thing that mattered when this was last changed -- without delaying the message to get it. Idle counts too, and is the case that must not be missed: a message written after a turn's last model call has no later output to prove anything. `closed` is untouched, and `Queue::close` still reports held messages by name rather than dropping them. **An image now names the call that produced it.** `Event::Image` gains `about`, the `tool_use_id` from the tool result it came out of, so a screenshot is drawn inside that call's card instead of floating beside it -- pairing them by position is what a page boundary breaks. `None` for a person's own attachment, which belongs to no call. The import path threads it through as well, so replayed history reads the same as live. Images show whether the card is open or closed: a call whose result *is* a picture says less closed than the one line it replaced. Verified on the emulator against a real haiku turn: the checkerboard sits inside `Read /tmp/tiny.png`, and the steer sits between that call and the next, where it was taken. 53 tests, clippy, rustfmt, lint and ktfmt clean.

Correct the claim that reattach is local only
Written down as "an ssh session's child dies with its connection, so it takes the ordinary --resume path". The code never had that branch: `start` records a pid whatever the transport, and for a remote session the process the backend owns is the ssh client. Adopting it is right -- the fifo feeds it, its logs capture the far end, and ssh lives exactly as long as the remote command, so its liveness is the session's. The docs claimed less than the code does, which is the safe direction to be wrong in but still wrong, and it was about to mislead someone: a remote `claude` has an sshd pipe on stdin under every version of this server, because the fifo is on the backend's side of the connection. Reading a remote session's stdin therefore says nothing about which backend started it, and we were an inch from concluding otherwise.

Make jump-to-latest the same chevron, pointing down
It was a labelled button beside a tool group that collapses with a drawn chevron -- two controls doing the same kind of thing in two visual languages. Now one `Chevron` composable serves both directions, parameterised rather than copied, since a pair that differs by a minus sign drifts and the drift is a bug in exactly one direction. The comment it replaces argued against an arrow here, on the grounds that the list is laid out upside down. That reasoning was about the code: nobody reading the screen knows the list is reversed, and on screen the newest message is at the bottom, which is where this goes. It draws no text, so the name lives in its content description -- the whole of what a screen reader has, and the answer to "what was that arrow for" later. Verified on the emulator: scrolled up, the chevron appears bottom centre matching the group's; tapped, it returns to the newest message and takes itself away.

Hold an image's place, open it full screen, and fold a run of calls
Five changes to how a transcript reads. **Images no longer move the page.** The row was as tall as whatever had loaded, so it grew when the bytes arrived and pushed everything below it -- and in a bottom-anchored list, an image loading above the viewport moved the text under the reader's eyes. The height is now decided before the fetch and never changes: four lines of the body style, measured from the type so it stays four lines when the reader has scaled their fonts. Nothing to see when loading finishes, which is the point. **A small image is enlarged with nearest neighbour**, a large one shrunk smoothly -- decided per image from its actual size rather than set once, since blowing a 16px sprite up with interpolation turns it into a blur of exactly the thing being looked at. **Tapping one opens it full screen**, fitted so the whole image is visible first, with two-finger zoom to 8x and pan once zoomed. A dialog rather than a screen, so back returns to the transcript. **A tool call is one line closed**: the tool's name and what the call is for. The command is not on it, because a wrapped command turns one row into four. Open, it shows the command, the rest of the input and the output, with the timeout at the top right -- a limit on the call rather than part of what it does, worth seeing beside the command it constrains. A call waiting on permission is shown open regardless, since the command is the thing being decided. **Adjacent calls fold into "Called n tools"**, closed by default, and it closes again from either end -- a long group's heading scrolls away while its last call is still on screen, and the reader who wants it shut is looking at the bottom. The calls keep their full width; what says they belong together is the surface behind them, one cue rather than two half-cues. Grouping happens at display time, not in the fold: the transcript's own order is what paging and the stream depend on. Echo gains `/tools [n]` so a run of calls can be produced without paying for one. Verified on the emulator: four calls folded and expanded, one opened inside the group showing `timeout 5000` top right, a 16px checkerboard enlarged with hard pixel edges beside a shrunk screenshot at the same height, the screen byte-identical between one second and six after opening, full screen fitted, and back returning to the same scroll position. Pinch itself is the one thing not verified here -- `adb input` cannot inject a two-finger gesture. 53 tests, clippy, rustfmt, Android lint and ktfmt clean.

Show what was remembered as a note, not as markup
Claude Code marks a sentence taken from its stored memory by wrapping it in `<cc-memory filenames="...">`. Markdown has nothing to say about that, so it arrived as literal angle brackets mid-sentence and read as the model having emitted broken HTML. It is the opposite: a claim about where something came from, and "I was told this before" and "I worked this out just now" are different things the reader could not otherwise tell apart. Each one becomes a card naming the files it came from, with the prose either side of it left as prose. Named rather than merely tinted, since a colour can say "this one is different" but not what kind of different. A tag still arriving is left alone: streaming means the closing half may be seconds away, and a half-written marker is not a marker yet. Verified on the emulator with two notes in one message, one of them citing two files, and prose before, between and after. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Ask for permission on the call it is about, and read the input
A bash permission request arrived as a second card repeating the tool
call's input verbatim, so the same command appeared twice and the reader
had to work out it was one event. `Event::Question` now carries `about`:
the `tool_use_id` the CLI's `can_use_tool` request already names. That
makes the pairing a measured fact rather than a match on input text --
and it stays `Option`, because AskUserQuestion is not permission for
anything and an echo session's question is about no tool at all. Those
still draw as their own card, which is what every question did before.
The card also reads the input instead of dumping it. Every tool's input
is JSON, and showing it raw makes the reader parse `{"command":"…",
"timeout":5000}` to find the line they care about. A small table says
which field is the subject of which tool -- Bash's `command`, Read's
`file_path` -- and the rest is still listed, since dropping a field
would claim the tool had no other input when it might. The subject is
syntax-highlighted with dev.snipme:highlights, for the reason the
markdown renderer is a library: lexical rules are somebody else's
specification. Its theme is Catppuccin, mapped in Theme.kt beside the
rest of the palette rather than taken from the library's defaults.
The input shows whether or not the card is expanded. A row that says
only "Bash" says nothing anyone can act on, least of all when it is
asking to run something.
Verified on the emulator against a real haiku session: one card, the
description, `grep -rn "needle" /tmp | head -3` highlighted, `timeout:
5000` pulled out, and "Allow Bash?" with its buttons inside the card --
then Allow, which resolved in place and ran.

Show usage per machine, and say why a machine has none
The server now reports limits per machine, so the screen has to as well: one card per machine that offers a paid service, named by the machine first, because these are one account's numbers and which account is decided by which box ran the session. It also has to say which of four things happened, and the reason for splitting them shows up here rather than in the data. A machine nobody has logged in on is working exactly as somebody set it up, so it reads as a plain statement in ordinary text -- marking it would be the interface nagging about a decision already made, and would dilute the marks that do mean something. Only "couldn't reach it" and "the endpoint refused" are coloured as faults, and they say different things because they need different things done. The old screen drew all three in the error colour. No machine offering a paid service is not an error either: it says so instead of drawing nothing. The app also stopped parsing: `available` no longer exists and `getBoolean` on a missing key throws, so this had to land with the server change rather than after it. An older backend sending no `state` is read as "failed" rather than "ok", since an empty card drawn as healthy is the worse failure. Looked at running, against five machines: local reporting notLoggedIn with the backend's HOME emptied, loopback-over-ssh returning real windows beside it, an unreachable host showing ssh's own message in red, and a machine with no Claude provider correctly absent.

State the deny-unknown-fields rule where it governs all the bodies
It had landed appended to `SshRequest`'s doc comment, so a rule about every request body in the module read as something about how to describe a machine.

Refuse a request field the server does not know
A misspelled field was accepted and dropped. Sending `permission_mode` instead of `permissionMode` produced a 200 and a session running in the default permission mode -- so the caller's setting was gone, and nothing anywhere said so. That is the expensive shape: indistinguishable from success at the place you are looking. It cost an hour here, chasing a "startup race" that was a key serde had silently discarded; with the name spelled the way the API asks, a bypassPermissions session runs a `sleep` loop with no prompt at all. So every request body refuses unknown fields, not just the one that bit. Axum's message names the offending field and lists what was expected, which is the whole of what the caller needs. Query strings are deliberately left permissive: a stale link carrying an extra parameter is not a mistake worth failing a request over. 53 tests, clippy and rustfmt clean; verified against the running server that the misspelling is now a 422 naming the field and the correct spelling still spawns.

Ask each machine about its own limits, not this one about all of them
`ClaudeUsage` read `~/.claude/.credentials.json` on the machine running the backend and asked the API about that account, once, globally. But a session runs wherever its setup says, so the numbers on the usage screen belonged to the backend's account rather than to the account that spent the tokens. That is not a rounding error in the layout this project is aiming at. `ai-server` belongs on the host; the host has no `claude` CLI at all and the VM is a remote. So the screen would have reported "is Claude Code logged in on this machine?" while every session ran fine on a machine whose limits nobody could see. It looked correct only because backend and CLI happen to be the same box today. Usage is now per machine, asked through the same `Transport` the sessions use -- `ssh host sh -c 'cat $HOME/...'` for a remote, unchanged for the local one. `$HOME` is left for the far shell to expand, since a path built here is this machine's home directory and over ssh that is somebody else's. Machines with no Claude provider are not asked and get no row: they have no Claude limits, and a row about them would be a fact about nothing. The snapshot gains the states it could not say. `available` plus an `error` string made three different situations look identical, and the one that suffered was the harmless one: a machine nobody has logged in on is a decision somebody made, with nothing to fix, and it read as broken. `notLoggedIn`, `unreachable` and `failed` are now distinct, and which one a failed read is gets decided in `why_no_credentials` rather than at the call site. Supporting changes: `ssh::command` builds a `std::process::Command` that tokio converts from, so a blocking caller can use the one place that knows what a correct ssh invocation is; `Transport::capture_blocking` is that caller's door. The cache is keyed by machine and service rather than by position, since the set is no longer fixed at startup -- a positional cache would hand one machine's numbers to another the moment a setup was added. A cached snapshot still picks up a rename immediately, because the name has nothing to do with the poll interval. Verified against a real ssh setup (loopback, per AGENTS.md) with five machines, all four states seen: local `ok`, loopback-over-ssh `ok`, unreachable host `unreachable` carrying ssh's own message, a claude-less machine correctly absent, and -- with the backend's HOME emptied -- local `notLoggedIn` while the ssh machine still reported real windows, which is the production shape.

Render markdown, and stop wiping messages still waiting to be read
Two things, both about the transcript telling the truth about itself. Markdown is rendered rather than shown as its source. The parsing is mikepenz/multiplatform-markdown-renderer, not something written here: markdown is somebody else's specification, and a hand-written subset of one disagrees with it at the edges, which is where the bug reports come from. `Markdown.kt` is only the mapping onto this app's palette, so code, links and rules take the Catppuccin values the rest of the app uses rather than the renderer's defaults. The queued-message list was cleared wholesale whenever a turn ended. But the backend holds a queue of its own and takes one message per turn, so a turn ending is precisely the moment the *rest* are still waiting -- the bubbles vanished while the messages were on their way, which reads as everything after the first having been dropped. Now a held message leaves the list exactly two ways: the session reads it, which arrives as a UserMessage, or its send failed and there is nothing to wait for. Measured first, because the report was that the backend dropped them: three messages sent behind one long turn were all delivered in order (ONE, TWO, THREE) against current main, so the loss was in the display. Verified on the emulator: headings, emphasis, inline code, nested lists, a quote bar, a fenced block, a rule and a link all render, and the three queued messages sit through their turn.

Default a new session to bypassPermissions
Auto already allows most of what a session does, so the prompts it did raise were mostly the interruption without the choice -- and on a phone each one is a round trip to a question card. Measured rather than assumed: a haiku session spawned this way ran a bare `echo` and a `sleep` loop with no prompt at all. The stricter modes stay one tap away in the same picker, which is where a session that warrants one picks it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Say what continuing a session will cost, not just how big it is
The import list reported a file size, which predicts the wrong thing. Most
of a large transcript is history from before a compaction, and the model is
not given it again: of the 133 MB session behind the 2026-08-29 incident,
99% of the bytes sat before its last compaction summary.
So each row now carries the tokens the model was actually holding at the
last turn -- the input side of the most recent assistant message's usage,
prompt plus both cache figures, which the CLI records itself rather than
anything inferred from the file. The two disagree in exactly the way that
makes the size misleading. Measured on this machine: `ai-app` is an 80 MB
file with 150k of context, while `ai-app-backup` is 3 MB with 481k. The
smaller file is the more expensive one to continue.
Absent rather than zero when no turn has recorded usage, since a session
with no turns has no figure rather than a figure of none.
The row is three lines instead of one run of separators:
path cut at the head, keeping the tail, and the only thing here that
is cut -- one long value with no natural break, where the lines
below it are short enough to wrap
stats named, context, lines, size
warning only when there is one, in the warning colour
The warning gets its own line and its own colour because it differs in kind
from the stats rather than in degree: those describe the session, it says
whether taking it is safe at all. Colour makes it findable, the words make
it actionable -- "open somewhere else" and "we could not check" are not
distinguishable by shade.
Titles no longer ellipse either; they wrap.
Looked at on the emulator rather than reasoned about, including the states
that are not the default: a long path truncating, a row with no warning,
and a row with no context figure.

Read a session's transcript once at launch, not twice
Reading the last status back from the transcript -- added so a restart stops claiming an exited session is idle -- walked the whole file a second time, after `Transcript::open` had just walked it for the sequence number. Both answers are wanted at the same moment by the same caller, so the cost was paid per session at exactly the point a restart is trying to be quick. `Transcript::open` now finds both in its one pass and reports the status it saw. The free function goes; a transcript knowing what it last recorded is where that belongs anyway.

Make the process record survive a crash mid-write
Reviewing the reattach code found the fault it exists to prevent, sitting in its own save point. `process::write` used `fs::write`, which truncates before it fills. A crash inside that window leaves no readable record -- and a missing record reads as "nothing is running", which is the single answer that makes the next launch start a *second* CLI against a conversation that already has one. The window is not rare: the record is rewritten on every read that makes progress, so many times a second while a turn is producing output. Written to a neighbouring file and renamed over the real name now. The rename is atomic, so a reader sees the whole old record or the whole new one. That also makes the fixed-size padding pointless -- a rename replaces the file rather than overwriting part of it -- so it goes. Two more from the same pass: - A failed read of the stdout log was logged and nothing else. The session then went deaf with nothing on screen: no more output, no error, a status that stayed wherever it was. It now says so, closes the queue rather than stranding messages in it, and reports `Unknown` -- not `Exited`, because the process may well still be running; what failed is this server's ability to hear it. - Sizing the stderr log by reading it. `read_from` with a large offset answers "how long is it" by allocating the whole file first, which on a chatty process is a large pointless read on every reattach. `size_of` asks the filesystem.

Stop reporting the app being switched away from as a failure
Backgrounding the app left "Lost the event stream (SocketTimeoutException: null)" waiting at the top on return. Android stops the activity, the socket dies with it, and the reconnect loop -- which kept running on a phone nobody was looking at -- recorded the failure. Switching apps is a choice somebody made, not a fault to report. Worse, it could not clear. `streamError` was reset when an event arrived, so a session that reconnected and then sat idle displayed a connection error it had already recovered from, indefinitely. That is the expensive half: a stale failure is indistinguishable from a live one. So the stream now runs only while the screen is at least STARTED, which makes the drop a deliberate close rather than an error (EventStream already distinguishes them), and resuming reconnects from the same cursor. What takes a failure off the screen is `onOpen` -- the measured moment the server accepted the connection -- rather than the first event to follow it. The message that does get shown leads with what will happen next rather than with the exception's class name, which named nothing the reader could act on. lifecycle-runtime-compose is declared rather than inherited from activity-compose, for the reason core-ktx already is: this code calls repeatOnLifecycle and LocalLifecycleOwner directly now, and a transitive could change under it. 2.11.0, the current stable. Verified on the emulator against an idle session, which is the case the old code could never clear: backgrounded 35s, returned, no banner -- and a message sent afterwards arrived live, so the reconnect genuinely reattached rather than merely staying quiet. Build, lint and ktfmt clean. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Show a replayed session's images instead of dropping them
An imported session showed no screenshots. `text_of` kept only `text` blocks, so every image in the replayed tail was silently discarded -- while the *live* translator has always saved them into the session's `files/` and referenced them. Two readings of the same records, and the one used for history was the lesser. `save_image` moves out of `Translator` to a free function both paths call, since the naming scheme for that directory should exist once. `events_from` now takes the session directory to write into, which means the conversion has to happen where that directory exists -- so `Seed` carries the raw JSONL and `launch` turns it into events, rather than `routes` doing it before the session is created. Costs nothing in tokens, which is the point worth recording: this writes into ai-app's own session directory and the phone fetches a reference only when it draws one. Nothing here is ever written to the CLI's stdin -- it reads its own session file, and the only things this app sends it are typed messages, control requests and `/compact`. Verified against the 133 MB session behind the 2026-08-29 incident: 45 images in the replayed tail, written as real PNGs and served over the files route, with the transcript itself staying at 756 KB of references.

Say how big a session is before it is imported
The import list reported a line count, which is the wrong axis: these transcripts embed screenshots as base64, so one line can be a megabyte. On this machine a 69 MB session has 3,427 lines while a 44 MB one has 6,792 — the number on the row said nothing about what continuing the session would cost, and size is the only thing there that predicts it. The session behind the 2026-08-29 incident was 65 MB across 13,000 lines, a line count that looks unremarkable. Shown beside the line count rather than instead of it, since a short file of long lines is exactly the expensive case. Not warned about and not marked: importing a large session is a choice somebody is entitled to make, and flagging it would be the interface nagging about a decision already taken.

Let sessions outlive the backend, and never resume one twice
Three `claude` processes ended up running against this checkout on 2026-08-29, and the account hit its session limit. One cause, several ways in. An agent imported the Claude Code session it was *itself* running in. That is an ordinary import, and importing runs `--resume` -- so a second CLI attached to a file the first was still writing. The whole 65 MB conversation, 154 embedded screenshots included, was re-appended to the transcript under a new prompt id; both copies then read each other's writes as work done elsewhere, and the adopted one was billed for re-reading all of it. Meanwhile `shutdown_all` asked each session to stop and the process exited immediately, so the SIGKILL timer died with the runtime, the stop was unreliable, and whatever survived was orphaned with nothing written down to find it by. The processes leaked either way. So leak them on purpose, and be able to pick them back up. A session's process now outlives the backend and is adopted again on the way up, which is worth having for its own sake: restarting the server no longer ends a turn somebody is waiting on. Its stdio lives in the session directory -- a fifo opened read-write so the process is its own last writer and never reads EOF, plus stdout/stderr logs read from a byte offset. `session::process` records the pid *and* the kernel's start time for it, because a pid alone is reused and adopting a stranger's would mean never resuming the real conversation. That makes the fix structural rather than a check: everything goes through `ClaudeDriver::launch`, which adopts if it can and starts if it cannot, and `--resume` is reachable only on the second path. `Driver` gains two ways out where it had one -- `detach` (coming back) and `stop` (the session is being deleted, so the process must not survive). Importing a session that is open is now refused outright. Claude Code keeps `~/.claude/sessions/<pid>.json` for every live session, so this is a measurement rather than a guess; it reports no/yes/unknown, because a machine that keeps no such record cannot answer and "could not check" is not "nobody is using it". `SessionStatus` gains `Unknown` for the same reason. Also here, found on the way: - A reconnecting phone was sent the entire backlog. Opening a session was bounded to a page but reconnecting was not, so a long disconnect delivered thousands of events one frame at a time. Past `CATCH_UP_LIMIT` the stream sends a `reset` frame and the newest window, and the client rebuilds from it as it does on open -- without the reset the window is spliced onto rows no longer adjacent to it. - A session's status was assumed idle at launch. Read from the transcript instead, so a restart stops claiming an exited session is waiting for you. - `llama-server`'s stdout was piped and never drained, so a chatty one blocked on a full pipe buffer mid-load. It goes to a log now. - A turn that exited or errored never emitted `Idle`, so the queue stayed "running" for good: every later message was held forever and, since a message is only recorded when taken, vanished with nothing on screen. - Two doc comments had drifted onto the wrong functions. Verified by killing the server mid-turn: the process survived, finished its turn unattended (12.8 KB of output nothing was reading), and the restarted server adopted it -- one process, all 700 lines in the transcript, no hole, and it still took a new message afterwards. Deleting a session stops its process; a 266-event backlog resets while a 16-event one streams. 46 tests, clippy and rustfmt clean, app compiles and lints.

Hold a queued message below the indicator until the turn takes it
The backend records a message the moment it is sent, so one sent into a running turn landed in the transcript at the time *we* spoke -- above the working indicator, in among things the session had already read. It had not read it. Showing it there says otherwise. Messages sent while a turn is in flight are now held below the indicator, drawn quieter, and take their place in the conversation when the turn ends. That is an approximation and worth naming: the CLI injects a queued message at a tool boundary, and tells nobody when it does, so the end of the turn is the first moment anything here can honestly say the message was taken. It errs toward "not yet read", which is the direction that cannot mislead. Also in this change, from the same pass over the screen: the app draws above the gesture strip rather than under it, and the three status colours that were literals in two other files -- an amber, a green and a red off Material's defaults -- are now Catppuccin members in Theme.kt beside the rest of the scheme. The ordering is verified by construction rather than photographed: the list is bottom-anchored, so the first item emitted is the lowest on screen, and the queued block is emitted before the indicator. Staging a real long-running turn to photograph cost four model turns and never produced one, because the model kept declining to sleep -- which is its own finding, and the reason the next change is a test command in the echo driver. |

Hold the bottom while typing, and put the status where the answer goes
**Typing moved the newest message out of sight.** The list re-pinned on a new item and nothing else, but the two things that shrink it while somebody writes a reply are the field growing from one line to four and the keyboard opening under it -- neither of which is a new item. So the message being replied to drifted upward, and the view only came back when the reply was finally sent, which is the one moment it did not matter. It now watches the viewport as well as the item count, and only acts while already pinned. **The status has moved out of the corner.** As a label up there it said something about the session; at the end of the transcript it says something about a place -- this is where the next thing appears -- and that is where the reader is already looking, because it is where the last message is. `exited` is still said, in the same place. Removing the corner label without it would have left a session whose process is gone looking exactly like one waiting for input, on a screen whose whole purpose is typing at it. Verified on the phone-sized case rather than reasoned about: three lines of text with the keyboard open keeps the newest message directly above the field, and sending shows "working" immediately under the sent message. |
