A menu for what a chat may use, and three keys
Six smaller things, all of them about the interface not saying what is true.
The @ button only ever inserted the character, which the @ key already does
without a button. It becomes the scope menu: what this chat may use, switched
off per chat. Chat.scope_json is filtered inside resolve_tools AFTER the
capability, permission and instance gates -- exactly as chat.knowledge_bases
narrows knowledge_search -- so a crafted POST turning something on reaches a
tool the gates already removed, and there is a test that writes the column
directly to prove it. Absent means on, for every key, so "why is this off?" has
one answer. It is keyed on the gate rather than the tool name, so notes is one
switch rather than five. The switches carry no role="menuitem", deliberately:
ui.js closes a picker when a menuitem is clicked, which is right for an action
menu and wrong for a list you want to set several of -- which is why the menu
needs no JavaScript at all. Typing @ is untouched.
With no skills, nothing should mention them. tool.skills was gated on the family
alone, so somebody with an empty library was told "the list below gives each
one's name" above no list, handed skill_get, and watched the model spend a round
finding out. It requires skills now; the writing half moved to
tool.skills_write, which is deliberately not gated, because saving the first one
is what somebody with none most needs. And core.tool_list finally reads
tool_names, which had been resolved and documented with no fragment using it.
The composer's toolbar is one row again. .composer__actions is last in the DOM
with margin-left:auto, so the moment an agent chat added a connection, a
directory and a mode, Send and the microphone dropped to a second line.
chat.css has no media queries by design and the fix is not to add one:
.composer__context is the single child allowed to shrink and scroll sideways.
There is a test asserting the file still contains no @media.
The effort picker shows the level in force. "Effort: default" named no level and
was true of nothing in particular; chat.resolved_effort is the chat's own value
and build_request reads the same field, so what is shown is what is sent. The
model's default is a seed, copied onto the row at creation and on a model
change, and never consulted at request time -- a fallback would resurrect it
underneath a cleared effort and make "off" silently do nothing. "off" is a
sentinel and not an empty value, because start_chat declares Form("") and cannot
tell absent from empty: with value="" the reader picks off and gets high.
Alt+M dictates, Alt+R reads the last reply aloud, Ctrl+Enter sends from
anywhere. All three click the button that already does the job, so audio.js
keeps its one delegated listener. Alt+M and not Alt+D, which is the address bar
in Chrome and Firefox. Ctrl+Enter never means Stop -- Send and Stop are the same
element, and Esc already stops. Driven under a DOM stub before committing, per
the rule in CLAUDE.md, and tests/test_commands_js.py pins that every key has a
row in SHORTCUTS, since /help reads that list.
And the memory tooling, which had seven defects. The worst: memory_forget was a
case-insensitive substring first-match delete with nothing warning about it, so
forgetting "coffee" against "Drinks coffee black" and "Allergic to coffee"
silently removed whichever was older -- a wrong deletion nobody would ever find
out about, from a tool whose description invited exactly the short fragment that
misfires. It matches exactly first, then by substring, and refuses an ambiguous
one while naming what it matched. add() refuses an exact duplicate. The
at-the-limit refusal no longer tells the model to delete one to make room: past
the block's budget it is not shown all of them and would be guessing, which
feeds straight back into the first defect. And context.memories no longer claims
the memories "still apply", which nothing checks and which taught a model to
trust a stale one over what the person had just said.

Two selects that never wrote anything, and a queue
The approval card in Auto mode and the missing /effort were one bug. Both
selects hung their hx-patch on an empty sibling form reached by form="…",
and htmx binds a trigger to the annotated element: change fires on the
select and bubbles to its ancestors, which a sibling is not. The live rows
read agent_mode=manual and params_json={} while the browser showed Auto and
Effort: high. policy.py was never involved.
The verb moves onto the control; the empty form stays as value scoping,
which is the half of the CLAUDE.md note that was right. conftest gains
control_named so a test asserts the element carrying the name carries the
verb, rather than asserting the markup that was there throughout.
The composer's highlight was a third instance of the same carelessness in
CSS: .tok-mention is written for the transcript and scoped to nothing, so
the mirror painted its token in accent-coloured monospace over the
textarea's own text. Scoped under .msg; the mirror restates transparency
and font rather than inheriting them, and bleeds by box-shadow.
/effort is now offered before the first prompt and _new_chat reads it.
/index re-walks the project directory on demand, file_write drops the
listing it just invalidated, and the index ladder falls through to SFTP on
a host that refuses exec instead of returning nothing.
A second message during a reply is queued rather than starting a second
concurrent generation: a real Message row with queued set, so it survives a
restart and can be withdrawn. _drain hands one on at the end of a reply,
_inject takes one in at a tool-round boundary so an agent can be steered
mid-task. Stop leaves the queue undelivered. The terminal's Auto toggle
becomes off/copy/send, and send posts straight to the chat without touching
the composer.
@ now offers notes, skills, this chat's attachments and a URL to fetch; a
knowledge base attaches as a reference rather than a copy. copy_document
carries provenance, which was the one attach path that dropped it.
Also fixes an unrelated live bug: the round loop compared against the
global MAX_ROUNDS of 3 while sizing itself from the agent budget of 40, so
agent replies stopped after three rounds and reported forty.

The menu that never appeared, and the reason it never did
composer.js built its menu lazily inside show(), and refresh() wrote list.innerHTML before calling it. `list` is null until build() has run, so the first `/` or `@` ever typed threw a TypeError and took the handler with it. The menu has never appeared in any browser. That is why /compact "isn't there": nothing was. I shipped it having only run `node --check`, which parses the file happily. So this also brings the thing that catches it: a DOM stub driven under node -- not committed, hard rule 1 stands, it is an instrument like curl. It reproduced the crash in one run and immediately found two more: choosing a command from the menu left `/help` sitting in the box so the next Enter ran it again, and Tab completed nothing. Tab now completes and Enter runs, which is the split that matters for a command taking an argument. `.select--sm` was used three times and defined nowhere. I deleted the copy in chat.css and left a comment saying it "is defined once, in app.css", where it did not exist -- so those selects fell back to plain `.select`: width 100% in a flex row where four siblings wanted the same, all of them shrinking together until each was a few characters wide, and half a rem taller than everything beside them. That was the whole of "the connection switch needs to be wider". The connection and directory move to the topbar. They cannot change -- update_chat refuses both with a 409 -- so they are facts about the chat, of a kind with the Temporary badge, not controls on the message. The mode stays by the box. Compaction says it is working. It makes a model call that takes seconds and had no indicator anywhere: `hx-indicator` appears nowhere in this codebase, and the Generation.status channel that says "Summarising earlier messages…" for the automatic path cannot be borrowed, because it lives in the streaming bubble and this endpoint refuses to run while any message is unfinished. The overflow menu now runs the same code as /compact rather than posting for itself, so there is one implementation, one spinner, and one place the endpoint's four carefully written 409s finally reach somebody. /effort, low medium high, per chat with a per-model default. It goes out twice because there is no field that works everywhere: OpenAI and vLLM read reasoning_effort, llama.cpp's own docs say other values "have no effect" and its maintainer says the field "simply gets dropped without error or logging" -- what reaches gpt-oss behind it is chat_template_kwargs. Both are sent, and only once an effort has been chosen, so a provider strict about unknown parameters sees exactly the request it always did until somebody opts in. The control appears only on a model marked `reasoning`, a flag that has existed since the beginning with no reader at all. Mentions and recognised commands are marked as you type -- a mirror behind the textarea holding the same text with every character transparent, contributing nothing but a rounded rectangle, so a pixel of drift is a misplaced rectangle rather than a doubled glyph. A command is marked only when it resolves, so `/thoughts on this` visibly is not one before you send it. And again in the transcript, where user turns had no render step at all and now escape before they inject. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> |
