## Summary
- New logo: a hexagon framing a C and an n, in equal bands (ring, gap,
strokes, counters share one width), readable down to 16 px.
- **App icon**: white ring and letters over black gaps, transparent
canvas, hexagon spanning top to bottom; one fixed icon for light and
dark taskbars, docks and tabs.
- **In the UI** (`components/brand-logo.tsx`): black hexagon with white
gaps on light palettes, white version on dark ones, picked in CSS from
`data-theme` (system appearance when unset), so it also works outside
ThemeProvider (title bar). Loading screen (always dark) uses the white
one. Sizes: 4rem beside a text-3xl title, 3.2rem narrow column, 5.3rem
loading screen, 16px title bar.
- **Icons rendered from the vector**: `scripts/generate-icons.mjs` draws
every `.ico` entry (16-256 px), `.icns` slot, Linux size and the 1024 px
master straight from `images/CodeNomad-Icon.svg` with Chromium, instead
of shrinking one large PNG; it writes the containers itself, so Electron
drops `png2icons`/`pngjs`. One command replaces BUILD.md's four manual
steps.
## Validation
- New `tests/browser/brand-logo.test.ts`: real title bar + home page;
which hexagon each logo shows on light, dark and system (both ways)
palettes, with heights; red without the logo stylesheet.
- UI + Electron typechecks, Electron tests (283), `macos-titlebar` and
`notification-icon-badge` browser tests, `npm run test:help`.
- Icon checks: ICO entries 16-256 (DIB, PNG at 256), ICNS slots
icp4-ic14; UI captures on porcelain, linen, mist and ember palettes.
Desktop Tauri builds now update themselves in place on Windows (signed NSIS), macOS x64/arm64 (signed .app.tar.gz) and Linux x64 (signed AppImage), and Linux gains AppImage distribution. The application no longer shells out to `winget upgrade`; WinGet remains a distribution channel.
Updates follow the same two feeds as the server notifications: `stable` offers GitHub's latest final release when it is newer; `preview` (dev + release) offers the newest publication of any kind, ordered by publication because dev labels reuse their base version. The saved `server.updateFeed` selects the feed (otherwise the build label). Only releases carrying their signed `latest.json` are installable, so releases still building are never offered.
Native code owns URLs, keys and installers: renderers pass only the feed and, after an explicit "Install and restart", the accepted version. The manifest must announce exactly the selected version and `requireSignedVersion` binds it to the signature. Full verification precedes shutdown; installation and restart are admitted atomically with an all-window flush; timeouts, cancellation and failed cleanup discard the installer without replay. Failures belong to the installing window, survive reloads and are reported once; concurrent checks report "busy". Menu actions reach only the focused local application document. The vendored tauri-plugin-updater 2.12.0 runs its Windows exit callback only after a successful installer launch.
Publication stages four verified payloads (signed version required) and publishes each release's `latest.json` only after validating every receipt and uploaded digest; rebuilt tags drop a stale manifest first. The signing private key reaches only `tauri build` steps. Unsigned builds and PR runs publish nothing. Debian/RPM and unsupported formats use the release-page fallback. The Tauri CLI minimum is 2.11.5.
Validated by eight rounds of independent review (zero findings on both native/CI and renderer/docs), 268 native tests, script and browser regressions, real signed update trials on Windows and Linux (from loopback endpoints, before feed selection), and published-package trials on Windows, Linux and macOS x64. A production-signed dev prerelease, macOS signed updates and draft restoration across an update remain to be exercised.
# OpenCode V2 Migration and Desktop Restructuring
## Summary
This branch replaces CodeNomad's OpenCode V1 SDK, custom plugin, and
per-workspace runtime architecture with the native OpenCode V2 client
and one shared OpenCode service. It intentionally ships no V1 runtime
fallback.
The scope includes native location ownership, Forms and Shell resources,
project-wide cursor pagination, bounded resident message windows,
streaming reconciliation, duplicate-folder instances, multi-window
Electron/Tauri behavior, content-addressed restore, worktree mutation
fencing, and reproducible desktop packaging.
The reviewed implementation head is `dea20996`. UI and server resolve
`@opencode-ai/client@beta` to `beta-18999`; the runtime CLI is managed
independently. The official comparison baseline remains `upstream/beta`
at `eb1ac54d73`.
Full details: [`MIGRATION_V2.md`](./MIGRATION_V2.md),
[`DESKTOP_V2_COMPARISON.md`](./DESKTOP_V2_COMPARISON.md), and
[`dev-docs/DEV_V2_CODE_REDUCTION.md`](./dev-docs/DEV_V2_CODE_REDUCTION.md).
## Stabilization Fixes
- Preserve manual scroll escape across pagination, remote updates,
capped-window shifts, tab changes, and desktop restore; only a local
prompt submission forces the bottom.
- Keep the timeline resident window capped at 200 messages. Ordered
window slides use Virtua shift, while reorder, pagination, and
non-aligned replacement remount with a fresh measurement epoch.
- Finalize the temporary `200 -> 201 -> 200` transition in a
generation-guarded microtask before paint and compensate followed
content growth from a `ResizeObserver` attached to the mounted Virtua
root.
- Keep all pending inbox prompts after delivered transcript messages in
native inbox admission order.
- Add a persisted `steer`/`queue` follow-up preference; the alternate
shortcut uses the inverse while idle sends remain `steer`.
- Edit a pending prompt only after authoritative inbox cancellation
succeeds, then restore its text, structured payload, files, and agent
references to the composer.
- Expose native `session.background` through the ownership-checked
proxy, a prompt action, and `Ctrl/Cmd+B`.
- Remove the duplicate model-selector "show all" action and make the
favorites toggle label reflect its current action.
- Restore permission/Form synchronization plus skill, reference,
MCP-resource, and websearch-provider reads in the reviewed proxy
allowlist.
- Validate and preserve native location workspace identities for
root/worktree requests, session moves/imports, cursors, and global
Forms.
## Capability Decisions
| Capability | Native V2 availability | CodeNomad `DEV-v2` decision |
Revisit or complete when |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Assistant content mutation | `session.messageUpdate` authoritatively
replaces the text, reasoning, and tool content of a completed assistant
message. There is still no generic deletion of a complete delivered
message or mutation of user messages. | Restores individual
tool/reasoning deletion through the native update route. Arbitrary
whole-message deletion remains absent rather than locally simulated. |
Add broader deletion only if V2 exposes an authoritative operation for
the required message type. |
| Bulk tool and reasoning cleanup | No native bulk operation, but
`session.messageUpdate` can safely compose cleanup one assistant message
at a time. | Restores selected-group and full-session technical-part
cleanup through authoritative per-message updates. | A native bulk
operation is only needed if per-message updates become a measured
performance problem. |
| Delete-to-boundary / undo | `session.revert.stage` and
`session.revert.clear` use V2 staged-revert semantics instead of
arbitrary deletion. | Command-palette Undo uses `revert.stage`; Redo
clears the staged revert through `revert.clear`. | Revisit only if V2
adds broader authoritative transcript deletion. |
| Compaction | Native checkpoint compaction summarizes the older head
and retains a server-selected recent tail controlled by
`compaction.keep.tokens`. | Uses `session.compact`; there is no
message-level selective compaction. CodeNomad displays the partial
summary through the same reactive streaming path as text and reasoning,
then replaces it with the terminal summary. | Add scoped controls only
if V2 defines scoped compaction semantics. |
| Transcript pagination authority | Message pages expose only opaque
previous/next cursors. They provide no transcript revision, total,
absolute range, position, or random seek target. | Uses bounded cursor
traversal and a 200-message resident window, with defensive
reconciliation after destructive events. It cannot prove that pages
loaded across compaction or revert belong to one snapshot. | V2 adds
snapshot revision authority
([#43766](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/issues/43766)) and
navigable position metadata
([#44660](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/issues/44660)). |
| Full-session search | `session.list(search)` filters session titles
only. There is no server transcript-search endpoint returning message
identity, excerpt, navigable position, and transcript revision. |
Retained through exhaustive message-cursor traversal while keeping only
the 200-message resident window and collected matches. Large searches
still fetch every page. | V2 exposes transcript search
([#45801](https://github.com/anomalyco/opencode/issues/45801)) with a
target that composes with transcript revision and seek metadata. |
| Queued prompt management | Native inbox list, cancel, steer, and queue
operations cover authoritative follow-up delivery. The TUI's edit action
cancels a queued prompt before restoring it to the composer; it is not
an atomic inbox update. | Implements persisted primary `steer`/`queue`
delivery, inverse alternate shortcut, delivery switching, cancellation,
cancel-first composer restoration with structured payload retention, and
native-order timeline projection. | Revisit atomic editing or reordering
only if V2 adds an authoritative operation and a concrete product need
is established. |
| Background execution | Native `session.background` moves blocking
tools out of the foreground; Shell resources separately support listing,
bounded output, and removal. | Exposes `session.background` through the
proxy and UI with `Ctrl/Cmd+B`, and replaces the custom process manager
with native Shells. Unsupported controls such as rename remain removed.
| Add controls only when the native session or Shell APIs support them.
|
| Service lifecycle | V2 uses one shared externally owned service rather
than one runtime per workspace. | CodeNomad discovers or starts the
service. Stop Workspace evicts the native location after its final
logical owner is removed; application shutdown never stops the daemon. |
No parity work planned unless V2 changes service ownership semantics. |
## Validation
Migration gate (`878550ca`):
- UI and server TypeScript typechecks.
- 86 focused UI tests covering follow, pagination, queue ordering,
bottom pinning, shortcuts, delivery resolution, and model visibility.
- 64 focused server tests covering proxy ownership/location enforcement
and shared-service workspace identity.
- Production UI/server build.
- Tauri `cargo check` and all 121 Rust tests.
- `git diff --check`.
Timeline stabilization (`dea20996`):
- UI TypeScript typecheck and all 68 focused timeline, pagination,
request-authority, and restore tests.
- Tauri release build against the `beta-18999` lock.
- Native Developer Mode validation: no remount or empty frame during
capped shifts, same-cycle growth compensation, preserved manual escape,
and inactive-tab anchor restore within 0.3125 px.
## Remaining Gaps
- Active-session-location authority for MCP/plugin status.
- Optional interactive PTY, session export, and reference/MCP-resource
attachment UI.
- Desktop release signing/notarization hardening.
## Summary
- Trim Electron app packaging to only include runtime shell assets and
remove unused workspace runtime dependencies.
- Copy server resources explicitly, filtering stale build artifacts and
pruning known non-runtime dependency files.
- Bundle only the Node executable instead of the full Node distribution.
## Validation
- Built macOS Electron artifacts with `npm run build:mac --workspace
@neuralnomads/codenomad-electron-app`.
- Ran packaged server CLI smoke test: `dist/bin.js --version` returned
`0.16.0`.
- Ran packaged dependency import smoke test for pruned runtime
dependencies.
## Size Impact
- macOS x64 zip: 161M
- macOS arm64 zip: 161M
- macOS arm64 app bundle: 435M
- Packaged server node_modules: 25M
## Summary
- Rename the OpenCode config template into a versioned npm-packable
CodeNomad plugin package.
- Build and package the plugin through the server bundle, with
Electron/Tauri carrying it via existing server resources.
- Replace OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR injection with JSONC-aware
OPENCODE_CONFIG_CONTENT merging that appends the CodeNomad plugin while
preserving user config.
## Validation
- npm run build --workspace @codenomad/codenomad-opencode-plugin
- npm run prepare-plugin --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad
- npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad
- npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad-electron-app
- node --import tsx --test \"src/opencode-plugin.test.ts\"
\"src/workspaces/__tests__/spawn.test.ts\"
## Notes
- Production plugin loading uses an explicit npm file alias for the
packaged tarball.
- Dev loading still references the TypeScript plugin entry directly.

## Summary
- revert the Bun standalone desktop packaging path and restore the
server's original `dist/bin.js` bootstrap flow
- add a managed Node runtime for Electron and Tauri that downloads only
the current platform/arch artifact into `~/.config/codenomad`
- update desktop startup and packaging scripts so packaged apps use the
managed runtime consistently, and clean up Electron's expected
navigation-abort log noise
## Testing
- npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad-electron-app
- cargo check
- npm run build --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad
- npm run build:mac --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad-electron-app
- launch
`packages/electron-app/release/mac-arm64/CodeNomad.app/Contents/MacOS/CodeNomad`
and verify the packaged server reaches ready with the managed Node
runtime
## Summary
- package `packages/server` as a standalone desktop executable so
Electron and Tauri no longer depend on a system-installed Node runtime
in production
- align Electron and Tauri startup logic around launching the packaged
server, resolving binaries from the user shell, and bundling the same
server resources into both desktop apps
- replace the workspace instance proxy path that used
`@fastify/reply-from` with a direct streaming proxy so packaged
standalone builds can talk to spawned `opencode` instances correctly
## Why
Desktop production builds were still depending on a user-provided Node
runtime to launch `packages/server`, which made packaging less
self-contained and created different behavior across machines. While
moving to a standalone server executable, we also found that
Bun-compiled standalone builds could start `opencode` successfully but
failed when proxying requests to those instances through `reply-from`.
The goal of this change is to make desktop production startup
self-contained, keep Electron and Tauri behavior aligned, and restore
correct communication with local `opencode` instances in packaged
builds.
## What Changed
- added a standalone build path for `packages/server` and bundle
`codenomad-server` into desktop resources
- updated Electron production startup to resolve and launch the
standalone server executable
- updated Tauri production startup to resolve and launch the standalone
server executable with matching cwd and shell behavior
- added runtime path helpers so the packaged server can reliably find
its bundled UI, auth templates, config template, and package metadata
- improved bare binary resolution so commands like `opencode` can be
resolved from the user's login shell environment
- upgraded the server stack to newer Fastify-compatible packages needed
for the standalone/runtime work
- replaced the workspace instance proxy implementation with a direct
streaming proxy for requests to spawned `opencode` instances
- updated Electron and Tauri build/prebuild scripts to generate and
package the standalone server, while also repairing missing
platform-specific optional binaries during packaging
## Benefits
- desktop production builds no longer require Node to be installed on
the user's system
- Electron and Tauri now use the same packaged server model in
production, reducing platform drift
- packaged desktop apps can successfully create workspaces, launch
`opencode`, and proxy health/session traffic to those instances
- the server bundle is more self-contained and resilient to different
launch environments
- desktop packaging is more predictable because the required server
executable is built and bundled as part of the app build flow
