Run the window on the web - #20
Conversation
…card Three crates learn that there may be no operating system underneath them. `oxidezap-ipc` gains a `Link`: the write half of a daemon connection, with the platform's own object behind it. A byte stream keeps its mutex; a page gets a queue into the task that owns its WebSocket, because a `web_sys::WebSocket` is neither `Send` nor `Sync` and a front end holds its connection beside the rest of its state. The read half is deliberately not unified — a process parks a thread, a page is handed a callback — so what the two share is the frame handling above them rather than the wait. `oxidezap-gui`'s session becomes `frames` (what a frame means), `sink` (where events go), `media` (where the bytes a frame only names come from) and two drivers around them. The state machine is written once. Three things also leave: `whatsapp-rust`, which the window used for two type modules and which dragged a Tokio runtime, a transport and a VoIP stack in behind them; `smol`, whose timer is an epoll loop; and `openh264`/`oxidezap-audio` from the unconditional dependency list. `oxidezap-audio` gets a web backend. Playback is real — a browser decodes Opus itself, so `decodeAudioData` takes exactly the bytes the daemon sends — and recording is refused up front, because libopus is C and capturing samples nothing can encode is a recording UI that always fails at the end. Measured on nightly for wasm32-unknown-unknown: tokio's runtime, timers and channels build; `net` does not, because mio has no backend there. `smol` does not. `cpal` does. `opus` and `openh264` do not. `symphonia`, `mp4`, `ogg` and `ringbuf` do.

The front end now compiles and links for wasm32-unknown-unknown. What that cost, in the order the compiler asked for it: Entropy. Both majors of `getrandom` in the graph refuse to build for the web until a backend is named, so `oxidezap-core` names them for everyone. Icons. `gpui-component-assets` embeds its set on the desktop and *downloads* it on the web, one request per icon from an endpoint a static export does not have — so a build script copies them in through the `links` variable the crate already publishes, and they are embedded beside our own. A page that draws empty buttons until the network answers is not a page that works offline. Video. `openh264` is C. The decoder is absent rather than stubbed halfway, so a clip reports the error the player already draws instead of failing mid-play; WebCodecs is the way back and is its own piece of work, noted where the decoder used to be. Preferences. `theme.json` is a file the desktop polls; a page has no file. Both are now "where is the document, what does it say, has it changed", answered by `platform::prefs` — a path and a modification time on one side, browser storage and a content hash on the other. Settings edits and persists the theme on the web as a result, rather than reporting it unavailable. Entry point. One `main`, which `wasm-bindgen` turns into the module's start function; the logger and the renderer backend are the only two `cfg`s in it, and `?backend=webgl` exists because a page is served to machines nobody has tested on. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01RUTmmH3NpJkz5Kgxr7xeUk
A Unix socket and a named pipe are both things only a process on this machine can open, which is why they were chosen — the endpoint carries control of a WhatsApp session. A page can open neither. So there is now a third endpoint: a loopback TCP port speaking the same newline-delimited JSON over a WebSocket, with the media sideband that protocol depends on served over HTTP beside it. None of the protocol is repeated. `serve_client` is already generic over `AsyncRead + AsyncWrite`, and a WebSocket is neither — so the bridge hands it one end of a `tokio::io::duplex` and moves lines across as text frames. Handshake, version check, snapshot, state versioning and every request are the same code the desktop connection runs. It is off unless asked for, and that is the load-bearing part. A WebSocket is not subject to the same-origin policy: any page in the user's browser can open one to `ws://127.0.0.1` and would otherwise be handed the message history and the ability to send. A Unix socket has file permissions and a peer uid to lean on and this has neither, so `--web` turns it on, it binds to loopback, and it refuses any origin that was not named with `--web-allow` — except localhost, which is the developer's own `trunk serve`. Omitting the `Origin` header is not a way around that check, because a page cannot omit it.

Inline comments:
In `@crates/audio/src/encoder.rs`:
- Around line 195-197: Update the private items in the opus_ogg module that are
referenced by tests, including helpers, constants, and the RecordedAudio import,
to be accessible from the sibling tests module via pub(super); alternatively,
nest tests inside opus_ogg while preserving existing test behavior.
In `@crates/audio/src/web/player.rs`:
- Around line 351-384: Replace permanent Closure::forget usage with owner-scoped
storage. In crates/audio/src/web/player.rs lines 351-384, store ended in Playing
beside node and take both in stop_node, covering every start invocation. In
crates/ipc/src/web.rs lines 84-141, retain onopen, onmessage, onclose, and
onerror beside the socket within spawn_local, then drop them when the task
closes the socket.
- Around line 181-221: Update the playback state and the play, stop, and
play_samples flows to maintain a generation counter; increment it whenever a new
playback supersedes pending work, capture the current generation when play
starts decoding, and have the spawned decode task discard its result unless that
generation is still current before updating state or calling start.
- Around line 114-141: Make progress() use the same clock as seek(): have
elapsed_secs() and total_secs() represent wall-clock playback time consistently,
or otherwise ensure their ratio equals buffer position divided by duration at
every speed. Update set_speed to rebase the current position and started_at
before changing playbackRate, preserving time already played at the old rate and
keeping subsequent progress and seeking consistent.
In `@crates/daemon/src/bridge.rs`:
- Around line 231-255: The bridge loop’s read_line operation is
cancellation-unsafe and can lose partially consumed daemon frames when the
inbound branch wins select!. Update the server-to-client reading flow around
from_server.read_line and the surrounding tokio::select! to preserve the pending
read across cancellations, or replace it with a cancellation-safe
read_until/LinesCodec approach consistent with server::read_frame, while
retaining complete-frame forwarding and newline trimming.
In `@crates/daemon/src/main.rs`:
- Around line 243-248: The --web-allow handling in the argument parser must not
consume another flag as an origin. Before advancing args, detect values
beginning with “--”; leave that flag for normal parsing, log a warning, and do
not add it to allowed_origins, while preserving valid origin handling. Add a
regression test covering “--web-allow --web”.
In `@crates/gui/src/app/recording.rs`:
- Line 35: The polling loops in recording.rs:35-35 and
input_area_view.rs:198-198 can busy-loop when wasm timer setup fails because
platform::sleep returns immediately. Update both sleep sites to use a delayed
fallback or terminate the task when timer setup fails, preserving normal timer
behavior when setup succeeds.
In `@crates/gui/src/main.rs`:
- Around line 81-84: Update the logger setup in main so it uses a single
initialization path instead of calling console_log::init_with_level after
gpui_platform::web_init; configure the desired log level through the
GPUI-provided initialization and handle or propagate the initializer’s result
rather than discarding it.
In `@crates/gui/src/session/frames.rs`:
- Around line 142-149: Update the Frames failure handling around
DaemonMessage::Error, finish, and the reader mismatch arms to use one helper
that removes any Awaiting::staged_key payload from Frames.media before invoking
Awaiting::failed or abandoning the request. Ensure all post-request failure
paths, including refused or mismatched SendAudio requests, discard staged media
while preserving existing error reporting.
In `@crates/gui/src/session/media.rs`:
- Around line 106-112: Update Fetched::read to retrieve the bytes for the
requested key without removing the entry, matching Directory::read and allowing
repeated reads within a frame; retain clear() as the lifecycle mechanism for
releasing entries.
In `@crates/gui/src/session/mod.rs`:
- Around line 440-454: Move the status-update documentation block so it directly
precedes mark_status_watched, leaving reload_history only its history-reload
documentation. Likewise, move the media-fetch documentation block to directly
precede download_downloadable_media, leaving storage_usage only its
storage-usage documentation; preserve the existing function implementations.
In `@crates/ipc/src/web.rs`:
- Around line 239-265: Update fetch_media to use an AbortController and the
existing with_timeout utility, aborting the fetch when the timeout expires and
returning a retryable Err instead of remaining pending. Also bound the held
buffer in connect so frames cannot accumulate indefinitely while the socket is
unopened.
- Around line 207-216: Update query_parameter so pairs without an '=' are
skipped and iteration continues searching later parameters, while preserving
decode_component handling for matching key/value pairs and the existing None
result when no match exists.
- Around line 164-179: Update endpoint_url and the media_base_url connection
flow to validate user-supplied URLs before connecting: permit only the expected
WebSocket scheme and require explicit user confirmation for non-loopback hosts,
while preserving the loopback default behavior. Ensure both daemon and media
endpoints undergo the same validation before their first connection.

Main gained paged history while this branch was splitting the session, so the conflict was the split itself: `LoadMessages`, `LoadChats`, `Awaiting::Page` and the two page frames now land in the pieces they belong to — the requests on `Session`, the frames in `frames`, the page's media in `media_keys` so a page's photos are fetched with it the way a load's are. Both new transports move to the two places /AGENTS.md says the platform split lives. `ipc::web` becomes `endpoint::web` beside the byte-stream transports, which are themselves now `endpoint::stream` rather than the module root; the daemon's bridge becomes `listener::web`. Neither is a new boundary any more. Fixes from review, each a real defect: - The web player raced itself. A second play inside a decode's window installed the first one's buffer on top when it resolved, leaving two nodes connected to the destination and only one reachable; a seek's old node reported the clip finished a moment after it restarted. Both are answered by a generation on the state, which the decode and the `ended` listener check. - Its clock disagreed with itself: `elapsed_secs` measured the clip's timeline and `total_secs` divided by the rate, so a note at 2× hit 100% halfway. - Closures were forgotten to the JS heap per node and per socket, so scrubbing and reconnecting leaked. They are held by what owns them now. - `Fetched::read` consumed the entry, so a frame naming one content-addressed key on two messages drew the second as a download offer. - A refused `SendAudio` left its staged voice note in the cache forever, and each retry staged another. One failure path in `frames` drops it. - `--web-allow` swallowed a following flag, which both lost the flag and put it in the allow list. - One valueless query parameter made `?daemon=` unreachable. - The bridge bypassed the client cap entirely; both transports now draw on one count. `read_line` in a `select!` is not cancellation safe and could forward half a frame as a whole message, so each direction is its own task. - A client sending no `Origin` is served only on a loopback bind: a page cannot suppress the header, so anything that does is not subject to the one check a TCP port has. Verified against a running daemon: an unnamed origin is refused, the Pages origin completes the handshake and receives the hello with its snapshot, localhost is served without being named, and the media route answers with CORS.

`web/` is the page: an `index.html` that names the binary, a trunk config, and a build script carrying the three things that are not defaults — nightly, `build-std`, and the public URL a project page needs so the generated glue does not fetch the wasm from the account root. `.github/workflows/pages.yml` builds it on every pull request and publishes from main only, with the deploy token scoped to the job that deploys rather than to the much larger build beside it. It also checks the bundle is complete: trunk rewrites `index.html` to hashed names, and a mismatch there is a blank page rather than a failed build. The one piece of hand-written JavaScript in the tree is the service worker, and it is there because cross-origin isolation needs two response headers that a static host will not set — a `SharedArrayBuffer`, and so gpui_web's whole background executor, depends on them. Everything else on the page is Rust through web-sys. Also from review, and all defects rather than polish: a page's downloads went to a filesystem it does not have (a blob and a download anchor now, behind `platform::download`, with the desktop's path logic moved there intact); two tabs minted the same optimistic message id, because they are one process with one process id and both counters start at zero; `platform::sleep` returned immediately where no timer could be armed, turning every polling loop into a spin that freezes the tab; the logger was initialized twice, so the second one silently failed and left the first one's level; `?daemon=` was taken on trust, which made a link a way to point the window at somebody else's server; and a media fetch had no timeout, so a bridge that accepted and never answered stalled that frame's media for good.

Two bugs, both found by loading the bundle in a browser rather than by reading it. The window never opened. gpui's `Application::run` keeps the app alive on its own stack frame, which works where `Platform::run` blocks for the life of the process — and in a browser the run loop belongs to the browser, so `run` invokes the launch callback and returns, and the app is dropped on the way out. The page drew nothing and logged one line: "app was released". `run_embedded` is gpui's answer for exactly that shape, and the handle it returns is what holds the app; the page is the process here, so it is leaked deliberately. The connection was opened on a worker. `retry_connection` went through gpui's background executor, which on the web is a real worker with no `window` — so `?daemon=` was silently ignored, every media fetch would have failed for want of something to fetch from, and the socket's own callbacks fired somewhere the rest of the front end was not. There is nothing to move off the thread on a page anyway: it cannot start a daemon, and the socket opens asynchronously. Trunk is also pointed at the crate's manifest, because it looks for one beside `index.html` and the page is not a crate; and `build-std` reaches cargo through its environment, because trunk cannot forward arguments and a config-file `[unstable]` would apply to the native build too. Verified by loading the bundle in Chromium against a running daemon: cross-origin isolation on, one canvas, WebGPU and WebGL backends both initializing, "attaching to the daemon at ws://127.0.0.1:9527/ws" followed by "the daemon answered" — and the interface moving from its first loading step to "Connecting to WhatsApp" as the daemon's snapshot reached it. With no daemon listening, the same page reports "daemon connection closed" instead, which is the path that was silent while the socket lived on a worker.

The release build failed where the debug one did not: wasm-opt validates before it optimizes and refuses anything it was not told to expect, so it stopped at the first `memory.init` with "Bulk memory operations require bulk memory" and again at the first atomic. Those are not optimizations to opt into — they are the shape of a module built for threads — so `index.html` names them beside the target that produces them. With that, a release bundle is 18 MB of wasm against the debug build's 104, and it runs: loaded in Chromium against a daemon it draws the full interface, animation included, and reports "the daemon answered".

Seven more from review, and the theme running through most of them is that this build knows at compile time what it cannot do and was finding out at the last possible moment instead. - The microphone was offered on a platform with no Opus encoder, and pressing it logged a line nobody sees. `oxidezap_audio::CAN_RECORD` is asked before the control is drawn, so it is disabled with the reason in its tooltip. - A video was refused by its decoder's constructor — after the daemon had downloaded the whole clip from WhatsApp and pushed it across the loopback. `video::CAN_DECODE` is asked before the download is started. - The web player's decode is a promise, and the speed control restarts a clip and immediately puts it back where it was: both of those arrived before there was anything to put back, so the note began again from zero and a paused one started playing by itself. The seek and the pause are recorded and applied when the buffer lands. - A decode that failed left the completion receiver unresolved and the player with no buffer, so every later tap called `resume`, which does nothing, and the note stayed stuck until something else was selected. - The service worker reloaded on `updatefound`, which fires when the worker starts *installing*: the reload landed on another uncontrolled navigation that saw the same installing registration and got no further event, leaving the page without a `SharedArrayBuffer` until somebody reloaded by hand. `controllerchange` is the event that means the worker is serving us. - The loading notice sat at `z-index: -1`, which is behind the body's own opaque background — so the one diagnostic a stalled load has was invisible. - The client cap was claimed at accept, on a port that also serves media: with thirty-two windows attached, every one of their own photo fetches would have been refused. It is claimed for the WebSocket upgrade only. Verified again end to end with release binaries on both sides: the bundle attaches and the daemon answers.

The web bridge serves a cached payload straight off disk, and `tokio::fs` reached it only because something in the Linux-only half of the dependency graph turns that feature on. So Linux built and macOS and Windows did not, with five errors that all come back to a module that is not there. Declared where it is used. The download test also mutated `XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR`, which is process-wide while the rest of the suite runs beside it. The part worth testing — that a name off the wire cannot leave the directory it is joined to — is pure, so `safe_name` is now its own function and the tests touch neither the filesystem nor the environment. They cover the reserved Windows device names too, which nothing did before.

The `?daemon=` guard was doing URL work by splitting on characters, and a crafted value walked straight through it: `wss://127.0.0.1:9527@evil.example/ws`. Everything before the `@` is userinfo, so a reader looking for the last colon finds `127.0.0.1` and calls it loopback while the socket opens to `evil.example`. It goes through `web_sys::Url` now — the browser's own parser, which is the only answer that matters, since the browser is what resolves the URL. `media_base_url` too: deriving it by trimming a suffix produced `http://host/ws?token=x/media` for a socket URL with a query, pointing every photo at the socket endpoint. The bridge no longer binds anywhere but loopback. It warned before, and a warning is not a mitigation: off this machine the `Origin` header is a string the client chooses — a program that is not a browser writes what it likes — and the traffic is plain TCP besides. Remote access is a tunnel's job, which is a deliberate act by someone who can see what they are exposing. Its WebSocket also assembled messages up to the library's 64 MiB default before handing them to a server that refuses anything over one megabyte. The allocation was the cost and it happened on this side, so the limits are set from the server's own budget. And three smaller ones: the loading notice needed a stacking level rather than a negative one *and* a canvas above it, because `#loading` is positioned and a positioned element paints over an unpositioned canvas whatever the document order — the previous fix would have hidden the window. A Pages deploy gated only on the event type would publish unmerged code from a `workflow_dispatch` on any branch. And the paging calls set `Loading` before checking for a session, so with no daemon the list parked there with nothing that could ever answer — reachable on the desktop and ordinary on the web, where a page cannot start one.

Namespace outgoing-call placeholders across browser tabs
When two tabs initiate calls within the same millisecond, both create the same placeholder ID even though the new web front end explicitly supports multiple tabs. The daemon accepts the first request, then handles the second as busy and marks that shared placeholder unrecorded; because it also identifies the live first call, the eventual first call can lose its local history record, and its later OutgoingCallStarted rename is indistinguishable from the rejected attempt. Include front_end_id() or an equivalent per-tab component in call placeholders, just as optimistic message IDs now do.

A branch rather than the Pages artifact deployment: an artifact replaces the whole site, so there is nowhere to put a preview beside it. One `gh-pages` branch carries both — the site at the root, a preview per open pull request under `pr/<n>/` — and each publish is a single orphan commit, because a twenty-megabyte bundle per push on an ordinary history would grow the repository for ever and deleting the directory would not give any of it back. A preview is only worth having if it goes away, so closing the pull request removes its directory, merged or not. Publishing the site keeps `pr/` — otherwise a push to main takes every open pull request's preview down with it. Forks build but do not publish. A fork's token is read-only, and the way around that runs the base branch's workflow with write access against the fork's code.

`the_startup_lock_is_exclusive` failed on macOS, twice, on a lock this branch does not touch. It is not the lock: `Command::spawn` forks, and between the fork and the exec the child holds a copy of every descriptor the process has open — `O_CLOEXEC` closes them at the exec, not before. So a `flock` taken on one of them is still held after its owner has closed it, for as long as that window lasts, which is exactly what "lock outlived its holder" reads like. Reproduced outside the suite: against a single thread spawning a child in a loop, a lock closed by its holder was still held in 103 of 2000 rounds, on Linux. Linux had been getting away with it here; adding this branch's tests to the same binary reshuffled which tests run beside which, and macOS lost the toss. Nothing to repair in the daemon — the window is microseconds wide and the only lock in it is one the daemon holds for its whole run — so this is the test binary running both halves at once. The launching tests already serialized against each other for the launch slot; that mutex moves to the crate root, where the lock test can take it too.

Skip cached videos when collecting web prefetch keys
When the daemon already holds a full video—for example, because a desktop window downloaded it—a hydrated row receives that download cache key, and this unconditional collector makes the web client transfer the entire clip before rendering the frame even though the build cannot decode video. The CAN_DECODE guard only protects user-initiated downloads; this independent history-prefetch path is fresh evidence that the earlier issue remains reachable. Filter unsupported media types before fetching so attaching a web window does not block state processing or retain a potentially large unusable MP4.

Deduplicate keys before sequential web prefetch
When several messages in one history/page frame reference the same content-addressed d-<hash> key, this pushes that key once per message and prefetch downloads the same payload sequentially each time. The new non-consuming Fetched::read preserves bytes for every consumer, but the remaining repeated-key list can still transfer a multi-megabyte attachment N times and delay application of all following frames; collect unique keys before starting the fetch loop.

Authenticate loopback clients across OS users
On a multi-user desktop, enabling --web exposes the loopback TCP port to every OS account, whereas the Unix socket is protected by its per-user directory and peer-UID check. This branch accepts an origin-less raw client, and such a client can also forge an automatically allowed localhost Origin, so another local account can receive message history and issue WhatsApp commands. The fresh case beyond the earlier non-loopback finding is that loopback is machine-wide rather than user-scoped; require a per-user capability or authentication instead of treating loopback reachability as equivalent to Unix-socket access.

…aits for Six from review, and the first is the repository's own rule: the branches that decide *where* a connection opens and *what* names this front end were sitting in `app/mod.rs`, which makes the app a second platform boundary every new target has to be taught about. `Session::attach` joins `Session::connect`, which is the module whose whole job is that split, and `front_end_id` becomes `platform/identity.rs`. - A decode that fails after the user has moved on no longer ends the clip playing now. The success path already checked the generation; the failure path did not, and `give_up` finishes the run and takes the completion sender — so an abandoned note's rejection left the current one playing with nothing holding a handle to it. - The playback tick asked only whether audio was playing, and on the web `play` returns while the browser is still decoding. It ended on its first pass and left the button, the clock and the waveform frozen for the whole note. `is_loading` is that gap, and it is false wherever the decoder is synchronous. - An outgoing call's placeholder was a clock reading, which is one id per millisecond for the whole machine — and two tabs are one process. It is minted the way an optimistic bubble is now. - A frame's media prefetch is sequential and each fetch carries its own timeout, so a hundred photos behind a stalled sideband was the better part of an hour with every state frame waiting behind it. One deadline covers the frame; what is late is offered as a download instead. - The socket's callbacks were declared empty and filled in, which the compiler rightly called out as three values written before they are read. Each is bound to what its own block produces. And two README lines that contradicted the paragraphs above them: localhost is served without being named, and a remote daemon is reachable through a tunnel.

Isolate PR previews from the production origin
Publishing same-repository PR bundles under /pr/<n>/ gives them the same browser origin as the production site because Origin contains only the scheme, host, and port. When a user has allowed the production Pages origin with --web-allow and opens a preview, that PR's unmerged JavaScript can therefore connect to the local daemon, read message history, and issue WhatsApp commands. Host previews on a separate origin or avoid publishing PR-controlled bundles beside the trusted site.

Reset the loading state when stopping web audio
After the first playback attempt, generation remains nonzero permanently; stop() then clears the buffer and sets finished to false, so this predicate reports that decoding is still in progress even though the decode was invalidated. When a web user manually stops a note or switches to other media, ensure_playback_tick consequently continues waking every 66 ms for the rest of the tab's lifetime. Track decoding explicitly or make stop() leave this predicate false.

Resume WebAudio while the click still grants activation
When the first voice note is not cached, toggle_audio_lazy waits for the daemon download before calling play(), so this resume() runs after the initiating click's transient user activation has expired. Browsers enforcing WebAudio autoplay restrictions then leave the new context suspended, but the returned promise is ignored and the decoded node is still marked playing; the result is a silent note whose ended event never fires. Resume or create the context synchronously in the original click handler, or handle the rejected/suspended result and require another explicit gesture.

Recognize bracketed IPv6 origins without an explicit port
When the page is served from a default-port IPv6 loopback URL such as http://[::1], the browser serializes the origin without a port, and this rsplit_once(':') splits the IPv6 literal itself, producing [: as the host. The daemon then rejects its own loopback page even though [::1] is listed as allowed below. Parse the origin as a URL or handle bracketed hosts before stripping a port.

The origin check was never an admission check and the module said as much the wrong way round: it claimed a loopback bind was safe because "anything that could connect could equally have opened the Unix socket". That is false on a machine with more than one account. The socket sits in a `0700` directory and answers a peer uid; a loopback TCP port is reachable by every account on the box, and any of them can write `Origin: http://localhost`, which is a string. So enabling `--web` handed another local user the message history and the ability to send. A token in that same per-user directory is what carries the guarantee across. Drawn once and kept, so a bookmarked URL survives a restart. Required on the upgrade and on media alike, because a photo is as much the account's as a frame is. Compared without an early return, so the matching prefix is not something a caller can time. Answered with a `404` rather than a `403`: an endpoint the caller may not open has no reason to confirm it is there. The daemon prints the URL to paste, since nothing else can carry it to a page. It is read in `main` rather than in `Options::parse`, which stays pure — and `WebOptions` exists so a token cannot be defaulted: an empty one compares equal to an empty one, which is the check answering yes to everybody. Also two on the web prefetch, both from review. A frame's keys are deduplicated, because a download key is the media's *content* — one photo forwarded into five chats was the same megabytes transferred five times with the frame waiting behind all of them. And a video's `d-` key is skipped where nothing can decode it: the daemon hands a hydrated row the downloaded clip's key in place of the thumbnail's, so a web window attaching beside a desktop one that had played a video pulled the whole MP4 down to feed a decoder that does not exist there. The `f-` thumbnail is still fetched — it is what the row draws beside "video is not supported here".
`the_startup_lock_is_exclusive` kept failing on macOS after the mutex that was supposed to fix it, which means the fork it races is one this crate does not make. That makes the assertion wrong rather than the lock: `flock` is released when the *last* descriptor on the open file description closes, and any fork in the process duplicates every descriptor until the exec clears them — so a copy held by a child microseconds from exec is not the lock outliving its holder. The release is waited for, bounded, and a lock that is genuinely never released still fails, which is the bug the test exists for. It also says the reason now instead of asserting a bare boolean. Then four from review, three of them mine: - `is_loading` was inferred from "no buffer, not finished, something has run" — all of which describe a player that has simply been stopped. It stayed true for the rest of the tab, so the repaint tick added in the last commit would have spun at 66ms forever and a pause would be banked for a clip nobody was loading. It is a recorded flag now. - A browser resumes an audio context only under a transient user activation, and an uncached voice note is downloaded before anything is decoded — so the click that authorised the sound had expired by the time `play` ran, leaving a silent note whose `ended` never fired. `unlock` takes that permission in the gesture; it is a no-op where a sound card needs none. - `is_loopback_origin` split the port off the right, which walks into an IPv6 literal: `http://[::1]`, which is what a browser writes when the port is the default, became the host `[:` and the daemon refused its own page. And the preview origin, which is not fixed because it is not fixable that way: a path is not part of an origin, so a preview shares the site's. What keeps it from being a way in is that the origin is not the admission check — the token is, and it reaches a page only by someone pasting it. Said in the workflow, where the previews are made.

Run the publisher from a trusted revision
For a same-repository pull request, the publish job checks out the PR revision and then executes its .github/scripts/publish-pages.sh with a contents: write token. A contributor can therefore modify that script to ignore TARGET and replace the production gh-pages root or push to another writable ref, rather than being confined to the intended preview directory. Check out the publishing script from the trusted base branch, or otherwise ensure PR-controlled code never receives this write token.

Authenticate preflight requests before answering
When another local account sends an OPTIONS request with a loopback Origin but no valid token, this branch returns 204 before token_matches runs, so the supposedly private endpoint confirms itself without the per-user capability. The browser's preflight targets the same query-bearing URL, so the token can be checked before this branch and invalid requests can receive the same 404 as other unauthorized media requests.

Keep run-loop selection behind the platform facade
The fresh run versus run_embedded selection makes main.rs another native/wasm boundary, so adding or changing a target now requires editing application orchestration above platform/. Expose one platform-neutral launch function and keep both run-loop implementations beneath the facade, as required for this GUI's target split.

Close the socket instead of dropping queued requests
If the WebSocket remains in CONNECTING while the front end emits more than 64 frames, this branch silently discards every later request even though Link::send_line has already returned success and inserted tracked requests into pending. If the socket subsequently opens, those requests can never receive answers, leaving downloads, page loads, or sends stuck indefinitely; exceeding the bound should close/fail the connection so Frames::finish drains the pending map rather than dropping individual frames.

The publish job checked the publishing script out of the revision it was publishing, then ran it with `contents: write`. On a same-repository pull request that is code the author controls: rewriting the script to ignore `TARGET` would have replaced the published site, or pushed to any other ref that token reaches. It comes from the base branch now, in both jobs that hold the token. What a pull request may influence is the bundle it built, and only where the base branch's own workflow decides to put it. Three more from the same review: - The preflight answered `204` before the token was checked, so an account that may not open this endpoint could still confirm it is there. A browser sends the preflight to the same URL as the request it is asking about, token and all, so there was nothing to exempt: the check moves above every route rather than the preflight moving below it. - The web socket dropped frames once sixty-four had queued against a connection that never opened — after `send_line` had already answered success and the caller had recorded a request against them. That is an answer nobody delivers, which is a request nobody answers: the views stay waiting and never ask again. It ends the connection instead, which is what runs `Frames::finish` and fails all of them at once. - `run` versus `run_embedded` was a second platform boundary sitting above `platform/`, where this crate's whole rule is that there is one. Who owns the run loop is now a question with one function and two implementations under it, like the clock, the downloads and the preferences.

When the embedded browser resets an account, this waits only for a flush barrier and then reports the store drained. Fresh evidence after the earlier writer finding is that writer_loop still owns SharedSqlite while blocked on rx.recv(), and sender clones remain in the detached client handler until let_go(self) runs; dropping those senders merely schedules the writer to exit, but nothing joins it before wipe_local_state() starts. The database deletion can therefore race a still-live writer/database handle, risking a partial account wipe; close the queue and await the writer task's completion before returning success.

`?log=debug`, which is what a page has instead of `RUST_LOG`. Until now the web level was a constant, so the only account anyone could give of a session was its INFO lines — and the interesting half of a connection, every stanza the library reads and every step of a pairing, is written at debug and was unreachable from a browser at any price. The floors come with it, and they are the reason this is a logger rather than one call to `set_max_level`. gpui, wgpu and the text shaper narrate at debug about their own business; `log`'s global level is one number with no per-target part, so a filter that knows targets has to live in a logger, and without one `?log=debug` buries the twenty lines worth reading in thousands that are not. Ours registers first so that `web_init`'s own `set_logger` is the one that fails — it tolerates that, and the panic hook it installs is what it is still called for — and the level is set after it, because it sets one of its own. `backend` reads its parameter through the same helper now.
A flush was the wrong barrier for a wipe and Codex was right to say so twice. It reports that the queue is committed, and the writer answers it and goes straight back to `rx.recv()` with `SharedSqlite` still open — so the deletion that follows runs against a live connection. That matters most on the target this whole path exists for: the browser VFS writes changed blocks *after* the commit, so a page the old writer was still holding can land behind the delete and put the file back, which is the partial wipe the delete-the-whole-file rule exists to prevent. `ChatStore::close` is the barrier that does not come back. `WriterMsg::Stop` queues like a flush — everything ahead of it is written, nothing after it ever is — and its answer is sent after the loop has broken and the handle is dropped, in that order, so awaiting it is awaiting the file to be let go of rather than the queue to be caught up.
Two silences, and the pairing log made both visible. The server sent `<pair-device>`, the library acked it, and the console stopped there: no way to tell a session waiting for something from one that had stopped. The event stream now says what reaches this side, by kind only. `EventKind` is `Copy`, carries no payload and names the variant, which is what makes it pastable into an issue — a `Debug` of the event would be somebody's messages. Until now the only account of that stream was the handled arms' own info lines, so an event nobody handles, or an event that never arrives, read identically: nothing. And `bot.run()` returning is a session ending, which was the one outcome that said nothing at all. It reconnects internally, so it returns only when there is nothing left to try — and it returned into an empty select arm, leaving a window on "Connecting to WhatsApp" over a console that had gone quiet.

Reject symlinked web token files
When upgrading a Unix installation whose state directory was previously permissive, another local account may already have planted web.token as a symlink to a file it controls. read_to_string follows that link and accepts any nonempty contents without verifying that the token is a regular, user-owned file, so the daemon starts with an attacker-known bearer token that can authenticate to the loopback bridge and access the WhatsApp session. Open the token without following links and validate its type, owner, and permissions before accepting it.

Preserve malformed daemon parameters as rejections
When a #daemon= value contains a malformed percent escape, such as a truncated % in a pasted URL, decodeURIComponent fails and this converts the failure to None. named_daemon() consequently treats the parameter as absent, and session/web.rs::connect silently starts an embedded session against the browser's store instead of reporting the malformed configuration. Preserve the fact that the parameter was present and return NamedDaemon::Rejected when decoding fails.

Accept the full IPv4 loopback range
When the daemon is launched with a valid custom loopback address such as --web 127.0.0.2:9527, listener/web.rs::run accepts it via IpAddr::is_loopback, but a page pointed at that address rejects it here because only the literal 127.0.0.1 is recognized. The explicitly enabled bridge is therefore unreachable from the browser despite satisfying the daemon's security boundary; parse IP hostnames and apply IpAddr::is_loopback consistently on both sides.

… parsed Three from Codex, all on the bridge's edges. The token is a bearer credential and `read_to_string` follows a symlink, so a state directory that predates the `0700` rule — or one somebody widened — can already hold a `web.token` pointing at a file another account writes. Reading through it starts the daemon with a token that account knows, which is the session. Worse, redrawing over it wrote *our* token through the same link. So neither follows one now, and the file has to be the three things "we wrote this" means: regular, ours, readable by nobody else. Anything else is an error rather than a token quietly replaced — a state directory in that condition is something a person has to look at. A `#daemon=` whose percent escape is truncated decoded to `None`, which `named_daemon` read as nobody having named one — so a typo silently opened a session against the browser's own store instead of the daemon that was asked for, which is the substitution `Rejected` exists to prevent. `Parameter` keeps the distinction the `Option` was flattening. And `--web 127.0.0.2:9527` is a bind the daemon accepts, because the whole of `127.0.0.0/8` is loopback; the page recognised the literal `127.0.0.1` alone and refused a bridge the person had deliberately enabled. Both sides apply `IpAddr::is_loopback` now, and the check moved up a module so a test can run somewhere other than wasm.

Skip preview teardown for fork pull requests
When a pull request from a fork is closed, this job still runs with contents: write, even though the publish job explicitly excludes forks. Fork-triggered pull_request jobs normally receive a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN; moreover, publish-pages.sh --remove deliberately creates a removal marker even when no preview exists, so it always attempts a push and eventually fails after its retries. Apply the same same-repository condition used by the publish job so closing an unpublishable fork PR does not produce a failing workflow.

Keep the Web Lock callback alive across canceled retries
When an embedded-browser connection attempt is canceled before navigator.locks.request invokes its callback—for example, two Retry clicks arrive before the UI rerenders—assigning the second task drops the first reconnect_task, which now directly owns the pending Session::attach future. Dropping that future also drops the Closure in claim::take, while the browser still retains and may later invoke its callback, producing a wasm-bindgen trap. Prevent overlapping retries or transfer ownership of the callback to the detached request until its promise settles.

Show decoding audio as active before treating a tap as pause
When a browser has accepted a voice note but decodeAudioData is still pending, playing_message_id() returns None because is_playing() is false, so the row continues to render a Play icon and “Play” tooltip. This changed branch nevertheless treats the same state as active and calls pause(), banking pending_pause; consequently a second tap on the displayed Play control prevents the decoded note from starting while the control still looks idle. Render loading/active notes as Pause (or make the action follow the displayed idle state) so control state and behavior agree.

Move the browser database to the durable worker VFS
When the default hosted page owns the session and the tab or browser is terminated before relaxed IndexedDB persistence catches up, this VFS loses already-committed SQLite blocks; the file itself notes that those blocks include Signal ratchet state, so subsequent messages can become undecryptable rather than merely being rehydrated. No WaitCommit or page-lifecycle flush exists elsewhere in the repository, and the repository explicitly requires OPFS through a dedicated worker for persistent web storage, so the default embedded session should run there instead of installing RelaxedIdbCfg in the window.

Skip preview teardown for fork pull requests
When a pull request from a fork is closed, this job still runs even though the publish job explicitly refuses fork previews. GitHub downgrades GITHUB_TOKEN to read-only for fork-triggered pull_request workflows, so contents: write cannot authorize the script's force-push; it records a removal marker, retries the push six times, and leaves every fork-close workflow failed despite there never having been a preview to remove. Apply the same same-repository condition used by the publish job.

Three more from Codex, each one thing owning something for the wrong span. The Web Lock callback was held by the granted `Claim`, which made it a caller's to lose: `retry_connection` replaces its task, dropping the `attach` future the claim is awaited inside — two Retry clicks before a rerender is enough — and the lock manager would then call into a `Closure` that had gone with it, which is a trap rather than a missed call. It lives in the detached task that awaits the request's promise now, which is exactly the browser's own span: settled at once on a refusal, and on a grant when the `Claim` drops and releases. A voice note's control and the tap behind it were asking different questions. `is_playing` is false for the whole of a decode, so a note the browser had accepted drew a Play icon over a handler that called `pause()` — and the second tap, on a control that looked idle, was what kept the note from ever starting. Both ask `is_active` now, which is playing *or on its way*; a paused note still draws as paused, because pausing during a decode sets `pending_pause` and takes it out. And the preview teardown ran for pull requests from forks, which never had a preview and whose token cannot write the branch. It was harmless while a removal with nothing to remove left early; claiming the ordinal regardless made the push unconditional, so it would now spend its retries and end red on somebody else's contribution closing. Same same-repository condition as `publish`.

Standing down on the P1 asking for OPFS-in-a-worker, and saying so rather than leaving it unanswered. The finding is right about the mechanism. The relaxed-IndexedDB VFS writes changed blocks after the commit, so a tab killed inside that window loses the commit — and for Signal state that is a ratchet that has to re-establish, not just history that comes back on the next hydration. What it asks for is not a fix to this diff, though. OPFS's durable path is a synchronous access handle, which exists in a dedicated worker and nowhere else — so "use OPFS" means moving the session into a worker: a different execution context for the store, the client and every task around them. That is the architecture change the store interface was deliberately shaped for (three functions, so nothing above So this PR ships the window VFS, with the durability window documented where somebody hits it. Two things make that a defensible place to stop rather than a silent gap: the window is bounded and observable — a commit is at risk only between the commit and its flush — and the page still prefers a real The fork-teardown P2 reported alongside it is fixed in 6c26a6e; it is the same finding as the earlier one on this file, and it became real when the removal started claiming its ordinal unconditionally.

Serialize retries before requesting the Web Lock
When the same tab triggers two Retry actions before the first attach settles, replacing reconnect_task cancels the first caller but its now-detached lock request can still acquire and briefly hold this lock; the second ifAvailable request then receives null, maps that to AlreadyExists, and leaves the tab permanently on the settled “Another tab” screen even though no other tab owns the account. Fresh evidence after the previous callback-lifetime fix is that the detached request deliberately survives cancellation; prevent overlapping attaches or distinguish this tab's in-flight claim from a genuine external refusal.

Create the token without accepting a raced-in file
When an installation has a legacy permissive state directory and web.token is absent or empty, another local account can replace the path after read_private returns but before this open. O_NOFOLLOW blocks only symlinks: create(true) still opens an attacker-owned, world-writable regular file, and .mode(0o600) is ignored for an existing file, exposing the newly written bearer token. Fresh evidence after the symlink fix is that the write-side descriptor is never created exclusively or revalidated; use create_new or verify the opened descriptor's owner, type, and mode before writing.

Recognize every loopback origin on the server
When the web build is served from another valid loopback alias such as http://127.0.0.2:8080, this check rejects its Origin before checking the token, even though the browser endpoint now accepts the full IPv4 loopback range and listener::run accepts binds using IpAddr::is_loopback. Fresh evidence after the endpoint-side fix is that the server still hard-codes only 127.0.0.1; parse the origin host and apply IpAddr::is_loopback here as well.

Read the token from the path the daemon reports
When XDG_RUNTIME_DIR is unset, as in many headless or minimal sessions where the web bridge is useful, state_dir() puts the token under ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/oxidezap-$uid/web.token; this command instead expands to /oxidezap/web.token and fails even though the daemon printed the correct fallback path. Tell readers to use the reported path or document the fallback rather than hard-coding $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.

A grant handed back to whoever asked is a lock this tab holds against itself. `retry_connection` replaces its task, which drops the `attach` future the `Claim` is held in — the `Hold` drops, the release settles the callback's promise a microtask later, and the second Retry's `ifAvailable` reaches the browser inside that window and is answered null. Which is `Refused`, which is `AlreadyExists`, which is `AppState::Refused`: the settled "another tab is running this account" screen, with no other tab anywhere and nothing that retries. The same shape without any drop at all: two `service()` calls that both pass the `running()` check ask the browser twice, and the loser is told a tab is holding an account that is its own page's. So the page asks once and keeps what it is given. `ASK` is that one ask; a caller arriving while it is outstanding joins the waiters, and one arriving after a grant is handed the same `Rc<Hold>`. `Claim` is a token on it rather than the thing itself, so letting go of a caller is letting go of a caller. The answer is settled in a detached task for the same reason the closure is held in one: a grant that arrives after its asker has gone is still this page's grant, so a Retry that replaces the attach mid-ask finds the account already claimed by the page it is running in. A refusal is not kept — the other tab may close, and a remembered refusal would outlive what it described — so the slot is emptied and the next attempt asks again. A grant is never released short of the page going, which is what the browser does for us and what the module docs already claimed; `running()` forgetting a stopped service now builds a fresh session over the claim this page still holds, rather than handing the account back between two of its own.

`create(true)` opens what is already at the path, and `mode` is only consulted for a file being made — so a regular file another account planted between `read_private` answering "nothing there" and the open is one we would open, leave at its owner's mode, and write this session's bearer token into. `O_NOFOLLOW` does not cover it, because nothing about that is a symlink; it is reachable on a state directory that predates the `0700` rule or that somebody widened, which is the same installation the link check exists for. So the create is exclusive. The path can still legitimately be there — the empty file a previous run left, which is the case the caller redraws over — so `EEXIST` reopens without creating and asks the *descriptor* what `read_private` asks the path, which is the only form of the question that cannot be answered about a different file than the one written to. That check is now one function both sides call: a read side and a write side that disagreed would be a token written into a file the next run refuses. Two more, both the same shape as fixes already in this branch — a check made general in one place and left literal in another. `is_loopback_origin` still matched `127.0.0.1` exactly while the bind check and the client end had both moved to `IpAddr::is_loopback`, so a page served from `http://127.0.0.2:8080` was refused by a daemon that would have bound there. It parses the host now, which also means a bracketed IPv6 literal is answered by the address rather than by the string. And the README told people to `cat "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/oxidezap/web.token"`, which expands to `/oxidezap/web.token` on a headless session with no runtime directory — where `state_dir` falls back to `${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/oxidezap-$UID`, and where the web bridge is most useful. The daemon prints the resolved path; the README now says to use that, and says what the fallback is.

Six conflicts, and one of them is the whole of the interesting part.
`crates/gui/src/session.rs` is a file on main and a directory here, so main's
71 lines were ported into the split: the `Plugins` variant into `FromDaemon`,
`PluginsChanged` into `frames.rs` beside the calls arm it mirrors, the
snapshot's set into `catch_up` before the connection state, and the two
request methods into `Session`. Main's doc block for `plugin_action` sits over
`plugin_approval` there — one describing widgets used, the other describing
why approval is not one of them — so the two were put over the methods they
describe.
`main.rs` had both sides moving the same lines: this branch to
`oxidezap_daemon::{…}`, main to a new `mod plugins`. The module goes in the
*library*, because the library is what a page runs — which plugins there are,
and why there are none, is a fact about the daemon rather than the process
around it. `server::run` and `serve_client` take both new parameters.
`server.rs`'s lock-retry test was rewritten on both sides; main's is better —
it holds the lock it regained and reads the library's clock — and it keeps
this side's error detail. AGENTS.md and README were both list insertions.
`Cargo.lock` was regenerated. And `group_notice.rs` named two fields the
library bump on main removed from `GroupNotificationAction::Subject`.
Then the plugins, on the web, which splits in two.
**Attached to an `oxidezapd`, a page gets its plugins whole.** That is the
half that had to be wired and it is four call sites: the web bridge hands
`serve_client` the same `Plugins` the socket does. Nothing else was needed,
because the protocol already carried all of it — the interface arrives in the
snapshot, buttons act through `PluginAction`, the permission prompt is
answered through `PluginApproval` — so there is no second implementation of
anything here, only an argument that was not being passed.
**Holding its own session, a page gets none, and says which of the two it
is.** `wasmi` compiles for this target; the interpreter was never the problem.
The host gives each plugin an OS thread and a bounded queue it blocks on, and
a tab has neither — the same fact r2d2 ran into. `Builder::spawn` failing is
already handled gracefully, so a page that tried would come up with a list of
plugins that had all failed identically, which is worse than none. It does not
try: `plugins::start` returns `Plugins::none` with the reason written down,
rather than arriving there because a browser has no `HOME` — a refusal that
depends on an environment variable being unset is one that comes back when
somebody sets it.
The front end is the mirror of that and not a second decision:
`platform::plugins_unavailable` is one function, two implementations, and the
Settings pane asks it instead of assuming an empty list means an empty folder.
"Drop a .wasm file in the plugins folder and restart" is advice about a folder
a tab does not have, given to somebody who cannot act on it.
The way in is a worker per plugin — its queue a port, its module and approvals
in OPFS — which is the same worker the store is waiting on and a second
scheduler rather than a second backend. Recorded in AGENTS.md as such.
Also corrected, because this branch is what made it false: the README still
said the web build "is the window only".

Replace the stored VFS handle when reopening
When the user clears the account, pairs again, and later clears that replacement account without reloading the page, prepare() installs a new RelaxedIdbUtil, but this OnceCell::set fails because the first session already populated it and the error is discarded. wipe() therefore continues operating through the first session's utility rather than the VFS that preloaded the current database, so the later clear can leave the replacement account's IndexedDB data behind; store the current utility on every successful prepare or reuse the original utility for subsequent preloads.

Not a bug, and the reason is inside the dependency rather than in this file — which is why it now says so in a comment (3b1c1e3).
The premise that a second install yields a handle to a different store is where it goes wrong. sqlite_wasm_vfs::relaxed_idb::install registers the VFS under options.vfs_name only if it is not registered already:
let pool = if let Some(vfs) = registered_vfs(&options.vfs_name)? {
unsafe { RelaxedIdbStore::app_data(vfs) }
} else { /* … register … */ };
Ok(RelaxedIdbUtil { pool })and RelaxedIdbUtil is { pool: &'static VfsAppData<RelaxedIdb> }. Every call with the default config therefore hands back another handle over the same static pool. The second prepare() — after "clear data and pair again", which is exactly the path described — registers nothing; it preloads through the pool the first handle also points at.
So wipe() going through the stored first handle deletes out of the very store the newest preload filled. Storing the newer handle would be replacing a thing with itself, and the refused set discards nothing.
The rest of the observation stands as a readability problem, though: let _ = cell.set(store) is a silent discard whose safety is only provable by reading a crate this file does not otherwise mention. It carries the invariant now.
Generated by Claude Code
Codex read `let _ = cell.set(store)` as a lost handle: `prepare` runs again after "clear data and pair again", the second `set` is refused, and `wipe` would then delete through a utility belonging to a VFS that no longer holds the current database. It does not, and the reason is one line of the crate: `install` registers the VFS under `vfs_name` only if it is not registered already, and otherwise hands back another `RelaxedIdbUtil` over the same `&'static VfsAppData`. Two handles are one pool. The stored one deletes out of exactly the store the newest preload filled, so the discarded `set` is discarding a thing for itself. No behaviour change — a comment, because the next reader trips where this one did, and an invariant that is only true inside a dependency is one this file has to state.
The store opened and then the process died on `scheduled-thread-pool`'s `thread::Builder::spawn().unwrap()`. That is r2d2's *management* pool, and it is a second spawn behind the connection threads the library already answered for — reached before the connection ones, so a page got as far as "Opening data database" and no further. Nothing here could have fixed it. `SqliteStoreConfig::thread_pool` is the only seam and it takes an `Arc<ScheduledThreadPool>`, whose builder asserts `num_threads > 0`; not passing one makes r2d2 build three of its own. The answer had to be that the store does not use r2d2 on this target at all, and upstream now says exactly that: `storages/sqlite-storage/src/pool.rs` is a connection behind a lock, keeping r2d2's spelling — `builder()`, `.get()`, `.state()` — so the six thousand lines above it never learn which platform they are on, and `spawn_blocking` is a call that simply runs. All eight crates move together, as they must. The bump also restores `subject_owner_pn` and `subject_owner_username` on `GroupNotificationAction::Subject`, which the revision this branch merged past had dropped and this branch had followed.

When an embedded browser session disconnects or handles “clear data and pair again,” this unconditional tokio::task::spawn_blocking runs even though the page has no entered Tokio runtime; it therefore panics before the publisher is joined or the account is wiped. Fresh evidence after the earlier direct-tokio::spawn fixes is this remaining blocking-pool call on the same teardown path; use the existing platform-aware oxidezap_session::unblock abstraction (or execute the empty web host inline) so browser teardown can complete.

Keep the service stopping until teardown completes
When an embedded-browser account reset reaches drop(commands) in session_bridge::run, the receiver becomes closed before plugin/publisher shutdown and wipe_local_state; a manual or scheduled reconnect then clears SERVICE here, skips the later slot.is_some() && stopping() guard, and starts a replacement session that opens the database while the old run is still deleting it. Fresh evidence after the session/store join fixes is that command-channel closure is still being treated as proof that the entire teardown finished; retain a completion marker or the service entry until run has returned.

Two from Codex on the plugin wiring, both on the path "clear data and pair again" takes, and the first is a regression this branch introduced by giving the page's daemon a plugin host at all. `session_bridge`'s teardown joined the plugin threads through `tokio::task::spawn_blocking`. A browser has no blocking pool, so that call does not join anything — it panics, and it does so *before* the publisher is joined and before the store is deleted, which is the whole of what the ordering there exists to guarantee. It goes through `oxidezap_session::unblock` now, which is a hand-off on a desktop and a plain call in a page; what it runs there is `Plugins::none`, with no thread to join. The second is older and the plugin join is what made it reachable. `run` drops the command receiver first — deliberately, so a plugin parked on an answer is woken rather than joined into a deadlock — and only then joins the plugins, joins the publisher and wipes the store. `embedded::running` measured "is this session still alive" by that same channel, so during the teardown it read closed, forgot the service, and thereby skipped the `stopping()` guard on the line below: the front end's immediate reconnect got a *new* session opening the database the old one was deleting. A closed channel is the start of the teardown, not proof of its end, so `RUNNING` is what is asked now — raised before the bridge exists and lowered only once `run` has returned — and a caller arriving in that window is told `Stopping`, which is the answer that says "ask again", exactly as the reconnect already does.

Reject malformed persisted web tokens
When web.token contains any nonempty but malformed value—for example, a partial write left by a disk-full error or crash—this accepts it without enforcing the generated token’s 48 hexadecimal characters. A sufficiently short remnant makes the bearer credential brute-forceable by another local account, which can reach the loopback port and supply its own Origin; regenerate or refuse persisted values that do not match the expected format.
AGENTS.md reference: AGENTS.md:L218-L225

`token()` believed any non-empty value the file held. Ours by owner and mode is not the same as well-formed, and the way it stops being well-formed is a partial write: a full disk answers `write_all` with an error after some of the bytes have landed, and what is left is short. That is the one kind of malformed value worse than none — the endpoint's whole admission check is this string, and any local account can reach the port and try, so a two-character remnant is a session anybody on the machine can walk into. It asks for the shape now: 48 lowercase hex characters, which is what the draw writes. Redrawn rather than refused, with a line in the log saying so and never what it wrote, because the file is this user's own and a daemon that will not start over one truncated byte is a daemon nobody can recover. The length lives in `TOKEN_CHARS` and the test draws a real token before taking it apart, so the two halves cannot drift into accepting a prefix or refusing everything.
The page handshakes, receives the server's `<pair-device>`, acks it — and shows no QR. Nothing after that but ping and pong, and no `client event:` line at all, which is what said the events were never dispatched rather than never delivered. `AbortHandle` tells its two endings apart by whether it *calls* the closure it boxes: `abort()` calls it, `Drop` calls it, and `detach()` drops it uncalled. `BrowserRuntime::spawn` cancelled by dropping the sender, so the closure holding that sender made `.detach()` — the one call whose whole purpose is "run this to completion" — cancel the task on the spot, before its first poll. The tokio runtime builds the same handle around a `JoinHandle`, and dropping one of those detaches, so the desktop never saw it. It is not one feature. `runtime.spawn(…).detach()` is how the library runs nearly everything fire-and-forget — the QR rotation, inbound message handling in `handlers/message.rs`, the notification handlers, the bot's own subscriptions — so on a page every one of them was killed before it ran. What survived is what is *not* spawned: the node_io loop, and the pair-device handler itself, which acks inline. That is exactly the log: a connection that works and an account that can never be paired. `net::abort_requested` is the rule stated once and tested on the host, where the semantics live entirely in a `oneshot` and need no browser: a value sent is an abort, a sender dropped is a detachment and waits forever. The test is written as the race the runtime actually runs, a task against its own cancellation, because the cancel arm winning is the bug and a test of the receiver alone would not have seen it — reverting the one line inside `abort_requested` fails it with "a detached task was cancelled".

Pin native media until HTTP delivery completes
When a browser is attached to a native daemon, this has check does not actually claim the cached payload: the daemon sends Downloaded, and only afterward does gui/session/web.rs::prefetch open a separate HTTP connection for the bytes. A concurrent cache clear or budget sweep in that interval can remove the file, causing a download already reported as successful to fail during sideband fetching. Give native entries delivery ownership until the HTTP reader opens or completes them, rather than treating this path like a desktop client that reads the shared file directly.

Real, and narrower than the report — the comment is what was wrong, so that is what changed (c0ff84c).
The invariant claim states is "the front end opens the file itself, so there is no window between promising it and handing it over". True for the front end this cache was written for, false the moment a browser attaches to this daemon: there the bytes cross as HTTP, so the promise and the read are two round trips.
Two things narrow it, though, and both matter for whether it earns a mechanism:
- Not the budget sweep. It drops the oldest, and the key just promised was just written — it is the last thing that sweep would reach. So the trigger is
ClearMediaCachespecifically, landing in the gap between the daemon'sDownloadedframe and the page's GET: somebody pressing "clear cached media" in the same millisecond as their own download. - The cost is one refetch.
prefetchlogs a missing key and does not insert it, and the renderer draws media it does not have as an offer to download — the same thing it does for anything the daemon never cached. The row is not wrong, it is one tap from right.
The exception is a save the user asked for, which goes quiet — but that is the already-recorded "a failed save says nothing to the person who asked", and it wants the transient surface that entry asks for rather than a second mechanism here.
Giving native entries delivery ownership means this cache keeping claims the way the page's does, and its first paragraph opens with "no index, no eviction bookkeeping, just files whose names say what is in them". That is a real trade rather than an oversight, so it is written down as one in AGENTS.md, next to the media entries it belongs with, and the false sentence in claim now says what the window actually is.
Generated by Claude Code
`media::native::claim` forwards to `has` and says why: the front end opens the file itself, so nothing can close the gap between promising a key and handing it over. That sentence stopped being true when a browser could attach to this daemon — there the bytes cross as HTTP, so the promise and the read are two round trips. Narrower than it sounds, which is why the comment is the fix rather than an index. The budget sweep cannot be the one to delete it: it drops the oldest, and a key just promised was just written. What can is `ClearMediaCache`, landing in the millisecond between the daemon's `Downloaded` and the page's GET — somebody clearing their cache in the same breath as their own download. And it costs a refetch, because the renderer draws media it does not have as an offer to download, which is what it already does for anything the daemon never cached. Closing it properly means the native cache keeping claims the way the page's does, which is the index that module's first paragraph opens by saying it does not have. Recorded in AGENTS.md as that trade rather than built for a race nobody has met.
A page with no daemon named now pairs against WhatsApp and carries a conversation: the QR is drawn, a phone scans it, and messages go out and come back. Two sentences in AGENTS.md said that was the one thing nobody had measured, and they were the last thing standing between this branch and its own claim. What stood between the handshake and the QR was the `AbortHandle` fix, and how it looked is worth keeping: everything a log could show was working. The socket opened, the handshake completed, the server's `<pair-device>` arrived and was acked — because the ack is inline, and only the ack. The six refs are rotated by a detached task, and a detached task was one the page cancelled. A client that connects perfectly and pairs never. Also recorded: a fix is not deployed until the service worker agrees. That one cost a round trip — the corrected bundle was published and an ordinary reload served the old one, so the fix read as no fix at all. The hash in the filename is how to tell, and `trunk serve` has no service worker, which is the other reason to reproduce there first.
The GPUI front end compiles to WebAssembly and runs the whole client in the browser — session, store and window. It can attach to an
oxidezapdinstead, and that is still worth preferring where you have one, but it no longer needs one..github/workflows/pages.ymlbuilds the page, publishes it to GitHub Pages, and gives every open pull request a preview under/pr/{number}/that is removed when it closes.It pairs, and it carries a conversation. In Chromium against the published bundle, with no daemon anywhere: cross-origin isolation on, the store opened through its VFS, the client dialling
wss://web.whatsapp.com/ws/chat, the QR drawn, a phone scanning it, and messages going out and coming back. The store round-trips: a page that has never been visited opens the VFS holding 0 files, one that comes back after the tab closed opens it holding 1. A second tab is refused the account and says so.The last thing between the handshake and the QR is worth reading, because everything a log could show was working. The socket opened, the handshake completed (XX), the server's
<pair-device>arrived with its six refs, and the client acked it. Then ping, pong, and nothing — no code on screen, forever.wacore::runtime::AbortHandletells its two endings apart by whether it calls the closure it boxes:abort()calls it,Dropcalls it, anddetach()drops it uncalled. The browser runtime cancelled by dropping the sender — and the sender lived inside that closure — so.detach(), the one call whose entire purpose is "run this to completion", cancelled the task before its first poll. The tokio runtime builds the same handle around aJoinHandle, and dropping one of those detaches, so a desktop never saw it.It was not one feature.
runtime.spawn(…).detach()is how the library runs nearly everything fire-and-forget — the QR rotation, inbound message handling, the notification handlers, the bot's own subscriptions — so on a page every one of them died before running. What survived is what is not spawned: the node_io loop, and the pair-device handler itself, which acks inline. Hence a client that connects perfectly and pairs never.net::abort_requestedis the rule stated once and tested on the host, where the semantics live entirely in aoneshotand need no browser: a value sent is an abort, a sender dropped is a detachment and waits forever.Where the session lives
One WhatsApp session per user over one SQLite file is the invariant the daemon split exists to protect. A browser has neither raw TCP nor a filesystem, so the first version of this made the page a window and nothing else.
That constraint turns out to be about processes, not browsers. So the daemon is a library that builds for
wasm32-unknown-unknown, and the page starts one inside itself:daemon::embedded::startruns the state hub and the session bridge and hands the front end one end of atokio::io::duplex.serve_clientwas already generic overAsyncRead + AsyncWrite, so no protocol code is repeated — the page speaks the same frames down a pipe that the desktop speaks down a socket.That daemon is a singleton, and learning why is half the design. A client ending is a client ending — a resync, a reload — and on a desktop that leaves the daemon running with the account open. Tying the account claim to one connection did the opposite: it freed the lock while the session and store were still live, and the front end's own retry took it straight back and opened a second session over the same database. Starting the daemon and connecting a client are separate things here too now, so a reconnect no longer even reopens the store.
Which tab holds the account is claimed rather than assumed: a Web Lock taken with
ifAvailable, so a second tab is told now rather than queued. The refusal has to survive the trip up — it reaches the window asErrorKind::AlreadyExistsand lands inAppState::Refusedrather thanError, because the error screen promises to keep trying and offers Work offline, and all of that is false for a refusal. The lock is the page's rather than a caller's, too: a grant handed back to whoever asked for it is one a Retry can release, and the next ask then lands inside that release and is told another tab owns the account.The store decides its own shape. SQLite on the web has no path, only a VFS;
store/web.rsinstalls the relaxed-IndexedDB one and preloads the database before any connection is opened — forgetting that is not a failure anybody would see, since a browser without the VFS opens the database in memory quite happily and loses the account with the tab. What it costs is when a write lands rather than whether it does. The durable alternative is OPFS through a synchronous access handle, which exists in a dedicated worker and nowhere else; that is the hardening, and it changes nothing abovestore/.What only running it could find
None of this is visible to
cargo, and several of them passed clean CI runs on the way through.tokio::timecompiles for this target and does not work on it. Its clock isstd::time::Instant::now()with nothing under it, so the firstsleeportimeouttraps — "time not implemented on this platform" — and takes the task with it. The daemon's handshake window was the first thing a page reached, so every embedded connection died there.exec::sleepandexec::with_timeoutare where waiting lives now. The table inAGENTS.mdused to saytimewas fine here; it had been measured by compiling.chrono::Utc::now()reachedSystemTime::nowfor the same reason —wasmbindis one of chrono's own defaults and this workspace turns defaults off.wacore's wall clock defaults to epoch on wasm and warns once. Nothing fails visibly: messages are stamped 1970 and a fresh account looks like one that has been quiet for fifty-six years.SqliteStore::newdied before opening anything — after which all thirty-seven of the store's query paths would have died the same way onspawn_blocking. And twice, because the pool's management threads are a second spawn behind the connection ones, whichscheduled-thread-poolunwraps. Both are the library's to answer and it does: on the web a "pool" is one connection behind a lock, keeping r2d2's own spelling so the store above it is written once.PRAGMA synchronousat anything butoff, and the store's default asks fornormal, so the connection was rejected while being configured.ChatStore::newspawned its writer queue throughtokio::spawn, one line after the database finally opened.client_revisionout ofhttps://web.whatsapp.com/sw.js, and WhatsApp sends noAccess-Control-Allow-Origin— so the browser blocks the request before it leaves and the session never gets past "failed to resolve app version". The two halves disagree in a way worth stating: the socket towss://web.whatsapp.com/ws/chatopens from that same origin quite happily, because a WebSocket upgrade is not subject to the same-origin policy and afetchis. The library resolves it per target now, off a bundle where the same revision is published cross-origin, with its compiled-in constant as the fallback.Autoselects it, initializes it, and thenCreateGraphicsPipelines failed with VK_ERROR_UNKNOWN … [RenderPipeline "quads"]reaches wgpu as a panic and the device is lost — with the session behind it still opening the store and building the client.

WebGL is the default now;?backend=webgpuopts in,?backend=autorestores the old behaviour.InvalidStateErroronsendin that state — it does not queue — and the library writes its ClientHello the same turn the socket is created. The writer treated the throw as fatal, tore the socket down, and reconnected forever without putting a byte on the wire. This was always a race and had simply been winning: thesw.jsfetch above was long enough for the socket to open underneath it, so the fix for the CORS wall is what turned a latent bug into a total one. Found by re-running the page after a green CI run, which is the only thing that could have found it.coi-serviceworker.jsexists because cross-origin isolation needs two response headers GitHub Pages will not set, and the price is that it caches the bundle: an ordinary reload of a published page serves the old.js, so a build that fixed something looks exactly like one that did not. That cost a round trip on theAbortHandlefix above — the corrected bundle was live and read as no fix at all. The hash in the filename is how to tell;trunk servehas no service worker, which is the other reason to reproduce there first.The shape of it
The platform split stays where
AGENTS.mdsays it lives —ipc/endpoint/anddaemon/listener/. A third transport joined them rather than becoming a third place.oxidezap-ipcgains aLink: the write half of a connection with the platform's own object behind it. Load-bearing on the web, where aweb_sys::WebSocketis neitherSendnorSyncand so cannot be held beside a front end's state at all — it holds a queue into the task that owns one instead. The read halves stay apart on purpose (a process parks a thread, a page is handed a callback) and meet atsession/frames.rs, which is the whole protocol state machine, written once.oxidezap-daemonis a library and the binary around it. The library is what the daemon does; the binary is the process — socket, tray, signals, the directory it claims.oxidezap-sessiongrowsnet/,exec/,video/andstore/: the transport and HTTP client a page must supply, where its tasks run and where it waits, the camera, and where the one SQLite file lives. Above them the session names no platform.oxidezap-guigrowsplatform/, andmain.rshas nocfgin it at all.A page cancels nothing, and that is its own category of bug. A desktop session ends by dropping the runtime it was built on, which takes every task with it;
spawn_localis cancelled by nothing. So the session holds awatchsender its long-lived children wait on — a watch rather than a notify because dropping it is the signal, so howeverrun_clientreturns the children wake, and there is no notification a task can be too late to register for. And the web executor counts what it spawns, sojoinwaits for the work rather than only for the session. That counter is deliberately not every task on the agent:spawnis what the daemon uses too, its bridge is a task on the same loop, and that bridge is what callsjoin— from inside itself — to decide whether the database may be deleted. Counting every task would count the caller, and "clear data and pair again" would refuse every time.Plugins
Plugins are the daemon's, so a page gets whichever daemon's it is talking to. Attached to an
oxidezapd, it gets them whole — panels, header buttons, and the permission prompt each one asks — over the same protocol frames the desktop window uses, with no second implementation of any of it.Holding its own session it gets none, and says which of the two it is.
wasmicompiles for this target; the interpreter was never the obstacle. The host gives each plugin an OS thread and a bounded queue it blocks on, and a tab has neither — the same wall r2d2 hit — and there is no directory to discover a module from and no file to keep an approval in.Builder::spawnfailing is already handled gracefully, so a page that tried would come up with a list of plugins that had all failed identically, which is worse than none:daemon::plugins::startanswersPlugins::nonewith the reason written down rather than arriving there because a browser has noHOME. The front end is the mirror of that one decision and not a second one (platform::plugins_unavailable), because "None loaded: drop a .wasm in the plugins folder and restart" is advice about a folder a tab does not have.Security, worth a careful read
A WebSocket is not subject to the same-origin policy. Any page in the user's browser can open one to
ws://127.0.0.1, and the daemon's bridge would otherwise hand it the message history and the ability to send.The admission check is a token, not the origin. A Unix socket sits in a
0700directory and answers a peer uid, so reaching it is proof of being this user. A loopback TCP port is proof of nothing: every account on the machine can connect, and every one of them can writeOrigin: http://localhost, which is a string. So the daemon keeps a token in that same per-user directory — drawn once and reused, so a bookmarked URL survives a restart — required on the upgrade and on media alike, compared without an early return so the matching prefix cannot be timed. A request without it gets a404, and so does one from an unnamed origin: wrong origin, wrong token and nothing listening are one answer, or the origin check becomes a discovery oracle for the thing the token exists to keep private.The file it lives in is created, never opened:
create(true)opens whatever is already at the path andmodeis only consulted for a file being made, so a regular file another local account got there first would have been written this session's bearer token. And it is believed only in the shape the draw writes — 48 hex characters — because a partial write leaves a short credential, which is the one malformed value worse than none.The token travels in the fragment, never the query. A page's query string is part of the request line, so
?daemon=…?token=…hands the credential to whoever served the page — for the hosted build, GitHub's servers and their logs — before a line of this code runs. Nothing prints the token either: not the daemon's log, not the console on success or rejection, and not the error string the window draws.A malformed
#daemonis a configuration error, not a default. It used to return the sameNoneas "nobody named one", which is now the signal to run a session in this page — so a typo, or a daemon refused for exactly the reason the check exists, quietly opened an account against the origin's own store.NamedDaemonhas three cases because there are three, and the rejection is settled.Three decisions that are yours, not mine
404; a proof in the query keeps the404but is replayable unless the daemon remembers nonces. Either is a wire change on both ends plus the media path. Written up besideendpoint_urland in the README./pr/<number>/can read the deployed site's database. A preview does not hold an account by default and#preview-sessionis the opt-in — but that is a guard against wandering in, not a boundary: a preview is built from its own branch's source and can delete the check. What bounds it is that previews are same-repository only, and opening such a branch already requires push access. Separating them properly needs a second Pages site, because that is a second origin and a directory can never be one.0700directory. That is the reason a self-hosted origin is worth preferring to a public one.What a page cannot do, and says so instead of pretending

Every browser API here is bound through
web-sys/js-sys: the WebSocket,fetch,setTimeout, WebAudio,localStorage, Web Locks, the download anchor. The one piece of hand-written JavaScript isweb/coi-serviceworker.js, and only because cross-origin isolation needs two response headers that GitHub Pages will not set — aSharedArrayBuffer, and so gpui_web's whole background executor, depends on them.There is no

Nine were never needed; the tenth is the socket, which now lives in the task that opened it behind a channel.Review
Around fifty findings across a dozen rounds, fixed or answered on the thread. The ones worth knowing about:
The media cache took five rounds, and the fifth is the one that mattered. Each earlier fix patched a case — exempt an entry from its own sweep, then from the next write, then from a wipe, then bound the abandoned ones — and each drew the next finding, because they were all built on a boolean. A boolean cannot express "two askers", and the key is content-addressed, so one entry can owe two deliveries.
claims: usizeis what that flag was always approximating. Delivery decrements it rather than destroying the entry, because a delivery is not a destruction: another request for the same content is answered with the same key, and a save that lost the browser's activation is about to ask again. A claim is a preference and not an exemption — the budget still wins in the end, since a delivery that never arrives releases nothing.Four I declined, with the reasoning on the thread. A suggestion to merge the download and sideband deadlines buys no outcome — the abandoned-caller case is already handled by
is_pending, and the two budgets answer different questions. A report that the HTTP client's two buffers "coexist against the module's 1 GiB maximum" has the mechanism wrong:array_buffer()allocates in the JavaScript heap and only the copiedVeclives in the wasm module's linear memory, which is what that ceiling bounds. A report that a secondstore/web.rsprepare()leaveswipe()holding a stale VFS handle has the dependency wrong:installregisters the VFS only if it is not registered already and otherwise hands back anotherRelaxedIdbUtilover the same&'static VfsAppData, so two handles are one pool. And a request to give the native media cache delivery ownership: the window is real once the reader is a browser, but the budget sweep cannot be what closes it — it drops the oldest, and a key just promised was just written — so the trigger is aClearMediaCachein that millisecond, and the cost is one refetch of a row the renderer already draws as an offer to download. Each is now a comment or anAGENTS.mdentry where the false sentence used to be.Earlier rounds: the web player raced its own decodes; closures leaked per node and per socket; a refused
SendAudioleft its staged voice note forever;--web-allowswallowed a following flag;read_linein aselect!could forward half a frame as a whole message; a socket close that left the writer parked meant later requests queued against a connection nothing would answer; a refusal for a full daemon wrote a protocol frame at a browser still waiting for its101; the Web Lock's callback was owned by the granted claim, so two Retry clicks freed aClosurethe browser still held. And several were mine, in publication: the publish job checked its own script out of the pull request's revision and ran it withcontents: write;--force-with-leaseanswers "has anyone else written here", which is not "is what I am about to write still the newest thing to say".One thing no engineering here can fix: a browser sets
Originitself and forbids overriding it, on the socket and onfetchalike. The library sends WhatsApp Web's origin deliberately — omitting it "would make the connection more anomalous, not less" — and a page can do neither. Being accepted and being indistinguishable are different questions, and only the first is settled above.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
