Reliable per-pane context tracking isn't achievable from transcripts: we
can't distinguish 'claude is live in this pane' from 'a shell sitting in
a directory that recently had a claude session' (claude renders inline,
not alt-screen; no WSL foreground-process access), and the 200k-vs-1M
window isn't recorded so % is unreliable. Removed the context indicator,
its OSC 7 cwd injection (pty.rs), the get_pane_context backend
(usage.rs), src/lib/usage.ts, the orchestration paneContext map, and the
App poll. The narrow-pane toolbar reflow (leaf--narrow/xnarrow tiers,
label shrink, close × pinned) is KEPT — it's verified and independent.

The context indicator never showed because it matched on leaf.cwd, which
is almost always undefined (newLeaf sets none; the shell picker never
supplies one) — so the cwd<->transcript match never hit.
Fix: report each WSL pane's real working directory.
- pty.rs: inject PROMPT_COMMAND (forwarded via WSLENV) so the WSL shell
emits OSC 7 (file://host/path) on every prompt. Default Ubuntu bash
inherits an env-provided PROMPT_COMMAND; a shell that hard-assigns it,
or a non-bash login shell, just won't report (indicator stays hidden,
no breakage).
- XtermPane: register an OSC 7 handler, decode the path, emit onCwd.
- LeafPane: track liveCwd from onCwd and match the session on
(liveCwd ?? leaf.cwd). OSC 7 fires at the bash prompt right before
'claude' launches, so liveCwd is exactly claude's launch cwd; it also
follows 'cd'.

Reads ~/.claude/projects/*.jsonl transcripts from the open WSL panes'
distros and shows per-session token counts + estimated USD cost, with a
running total in the titlebar.
Backend (src-tauri/src/usage.rs): new get_claude_usage command. For each
distro it probes $HOME once via wsl.exe, reaches the transcripts over the
\\wsl.localhost UNC share, and tallies message.usage per model per
session (summed by each line's model, since a session can switch models).
Results cached by (path,size,mtime) so polling only re-parses the file
that grew; recency-capped (30d / 50 sessions) to bound scan cost.
Windows-only; returns [] elsewhere. quiet_command made pub(crate).
Frontend: src/lib/usage.ts holds the pricing table (per-MTok rates,
matched by model-family substring) + cost/format helpers, so rates are
editable without recompiling Rust. UsagePanel.tsx mirrors the MCP panel
modal; rows whose transcript cwd matches an open pane are highlighted
with a [pane: label] tag. App polls every 20s (visible windows) for the
titlebar 💰 total and every 5s while the panel is open. Ctrl+Shift+U
opens it; added to shortcuts.ts + regenerated README.

Right-click any pane's title bar → "Move to new window" pops it into a
fresh tiletopia window with its PTY intact. Same Tauri process; the
PtyManager is shared, so the existing PaneId stays valid and Tauri 2's
process-wide event routing keeps pane://{id}/data flowing into the new
window's XtermPane.
Mechanism (Rust-side, plan-agent's main correction over my draft):
- pty.rs: PtyManager.transferring is a per-pane refcount; kill_pane
becomes a no-op while it's >0. Source window's React unmount calls
kill_pane → silently dropped while in flight; target window's
claim_pane decrements after it has subscribed.
- window_state.rs: per-window workspaces snapshot map +
debounced-by-tokio aggregate save. Each window pushes its tabs via
push_window_workspaces; backend writes the merged
{ version: 2, workspaces: [...] } envelope. Non-main windows have
their entries dropped on CloseRequested so closing a detached window
discards its tabs (Chrome-style).
- commands: mark_pane_transferring, claim_pane, get_pane_ring (base64
scrollback ring snapshot), create_pane_window, take_pending_window_init,
push_window_workspaces.
Frontend:
- XtermPane gets `existingPaneId?: PaneId`: skip spawn, replay ring
snapshot via term.write before attaching the live data listener,
resize PTY to this window's grid, claim_pane. Scrollback replay was
the plan agent's other ship-in-v1 call — without it a transferred
Claude session looks blank until next prompt repaint.
- LeafPane: onContextMenu opens a fixed-positioned "Move to new
window" popover. Esc / outside-click dismiss.
- orchestration adds moveToNewWindow + getInitialPaneIdFor; App owns a
one-shot transferredPaneIdsRef cleared in registerPaneId.
- App mount branches on getCurrentWebviewWindow().label: main loads
workspace.json as before; non-main calls take_pending_window_init
and builds a singleton workspace around the adopted leaf.
- MCP mirror + onMcpRequest only run in main (paneIdByLeafRef is per-
window; Claude sees the main window's current tab as the single
workspace surface).

Reverts in one combined commit:
- 9931a92 (inline pane_id + watch list into bash script)
- 6772b8d (pivot per-distro → per-pane via TILETOPIA_PANE_ID env)
- f51033a (original per-distro idle filter)
End-to-end probe never worked correctly against the real running app
even after fixing the wsl.exe-drops-positional-args bug. Probe script
ran fine in isolation but kept returning false-negative when called
through tiletopia's wsl.exe spawn. Rather than keep iterating, back
out cleanly — pane behaviour is now the original "go idle after 5s of
silence regardless of what's running."
memory.md session log notes the lessons for a future retry: don't ship
per-distro again (CLAUDE.md explicitly says multi-claude-per-distro is
the primary use case); prove the probe end-to-end before wiring into
the idle effect (a "Test probe" button in MCP panel would have caught
this in minutes).

Per-distro suppression (shipped earlier today) broke tiletopia's primary
use case — multiple claude panes per distro means as soon as one runs
claude, ALL Ubuntu panes go silent. Tested live: user couldn't reproduce
idle on any pane because PID 46848 (their main session) tripped the gate.
New mechanism, per-pane via env-var marker:
1. pty.rs tags every WSL spawn with TILETOPIA_PANE_ID=<id> as a Windows
env var, plus WSLENV=...TILETOPIA_PANE_ID/u (appended to any pre-
existing WSLENV) so the var forwards into the distro. Pane id is now
reserved BEFORE build_command so the tag is available at spawn time.
2. probe.rs rewritten — is_watch_process_running(distro, pane_id) runs
a bash one-liner that pgreps for each watched name, then for each PID
checks /proc/<pid>/environ for the matching TILETOPIA_PANE_ID line.
Env inheritance does the work: shell inherits from wsl.exe, claude
inherits from shell. Cache keyed by (distro, pane_id).
3. Fail-safe INVERTED: probe failure now returns false (don't suppress)
instead of true (suppress). A transient error should never silence
the idle indicator permanently. Frontend catch updated to match.
4. LeafPane tracks PaneId in paneIdRef set by onPaneSpawned; idle ticks
before spawn-completion pass 0, which won't match any real marker so
the pane idles normally.
Existing panes won't have the marker until respawned — they'll always
show idle (since probe never matches). User opens fresh panes once after
deploying this. Documented in memory.md follow-ups.
pnpm check clean. Rust validation: cargo test --lib on Windows.

Probes wsl.exe -d <distro> -- pgrep -x claude before flagging a WSL pane
idle, with a 3s per-distro cache on the Rust side. If claude is running
anywhere in the distro, all panes in that distro stay out of the idle set
(per-pane granularity is out of scope — PIDs aren't observable from
Windows). PowerShell + SSH panes skip the probe and keep the legacy
always-notify behaviour.
Final v2 PR. All 11 planned write tools live. add_host/delete_host let
Claude mutate the saved-hosts list; both gated by a new allowAddHost
switch (default off) — symmetric with the allowOpenSsh gate from PR-3.5.
add_host's extraArgs are sanitised against CVE-2023-51385-class
local-RCE primitives: ProxyCommand, LocalCommand, KnownHostsCommand,
PermitLocalCommand=yes are refused server-side. Recognises both -o KEY=VAL
and -oKEY=VAL, case-insensitive on the key. The manual host manager UI
stays unrestricted (user has full agency over their own hosts).
Also fixes a pre-existing compile bug: mcp_policy.rs's policy_with test
helper was missing the ssh_safeguards field added in PR-3.5, silently
breaking the entire policy test module since then. Re-enabling those
tests is the prereq for the hard-deny rework that follows in the next
commit.

Three of the highest-power v2 tools, plus a defense-in-depth pass
on SSH-specific risk.
write_pane sends keystrokes (or any bytes) to a pane's PTY. The
policy engine matches against the text content directly so rules
like write_pane(npm test*) match by what would run, and the
compiled-in hard-deny catches rm -rf /, fork bombs, etc. regardless
of policy. Per-pane token-bucket rate limiter (30 calls / 10s,
3/sec refill) prevents a runaway loop from spamming the user with
confirm modals or burning audit-log capacity. The frontend handler
truncates the text in modal/audit summaries to ~60 chars + escapes
control characters so secrets pasted into write_pane don't echo
verbatim into the UI.
spawn_pane mirrors the existing SpawnSpec enum (WSL distro,
PowerShell, SSH) as the tool schema. New splitLeafWith helper
inserts a caller-built LeafNode (with a pre-generated id) so the
handler can await waitForPaneRegistration on that exact leaf before
replying with the resulting {leafId, paneId}. 15s spawn timeout
covers cold-start WSL distros; 30s for connect_host covers SSH
handshake + auth. Outer dispatch timeout bumped 30s → 60s. SSH
spawns without a saved hostId are refused — LeafNode only persists
sshHostId, no inline params, so use connect_host.
connect_host is a thin wrapper that looks up a saved SSH host by
id and routes through the same spawn machinery.
McpConfirm.tsx gains an optional ssh context — when the call
targets or spawns an SSH pane, a red warning banner renders
explaining that pattern matching is best-effort on the bytes we
send (remote shell expands aliases/subshells before executing).
buildConfirmSummary became buildConfirmInfo and returns the SSH
context alongside the summary string.
PR-3.5 — SSH safeguards. Two new switches in the Policy tab,
both off by default, both gated by mcp_policy::SshSafeguards:
allowOpenSsh: when off, connect_host and spawn_pane(kind=ssh)
refuse server-side with a clear "ssh-disabled" message pointing
at the Policy tab. User must open SSH manually via the titlebar
🔑 picker and toggle 🤖 on to grant Claude access.
autoAllowSpawnedSsh: when off, an SSH pane Claude spawns starts
with mcpAllow=false. User must explicitly toggle 🤖 before
Claude can read scrollback or send keystrokes. The second switch
is disabled in the UI when the first is off.
The safe-by-default design means a fresh install gives Claude no
ability to autonomously touch SSH — full safety with one click per
level to enable when consciously wanted. Both switches read fresh
per call so policy edits take effect without a server restart.
ErrorBoundary.tsx — last-resort guard against React render
exceptions. Wraps the App root + each MCP panel tab independently
so a bug in one tab doesn't blank the entire app. Shows a small
red error card with the exception message and a "Try again"
button. Caught a serde rename_all bug during PR-3.5 testing where
PolicyTab read policy.sshSafeguards but Rust serialized
ssh_safeguards (snake_case); without the boundary the whole window
went black.
newId() now exported from tree.ts for the splitLeafWith path.
McpPolicy struct gained #[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")] so
sshSafeguards survives the IPC round-trip cleanly; older policy
files without the field still load (serde defaults to safe).
Previously: spawn_wsl(cwd=None) passed no --cd to wsl.exe, so each
pane inherited the launcher's cwd — which is typically
C:\Users\<user>, surfacing inside WSL as /mnt/c/Users/<user>. Annoying
because the first thing you do in a new pane is `cd ~`.
Now: if the caller didn't specify a cwd, we explicitly pass `--cd ~`
so the pane lands in the WSL user's home. Existing panes keep their
saved cwd from the workspace.json.
