Problem

Fixes real, user-impacting bugs with concrete, reproducible symptoms across all
four client surfaces. Each item has a verified failure path that a real user
would hit; none are style-only or test-gap changes.

Web (app)

1. Auto-scroll fights manual scroll during history read

Symptom: user scrolls up to read older messages; every new SSE-arrived
message causes the viewport to jump back to the bottom, making it impossible
to browse history while the agent is running.

packages/app/src/pages/session.tsx:1058 — gated messageId reset on
!autoScroll.userScrolled() so the viewport stays where the user put it.

2. Silent session-abort failure on Undo / Ctrl+C

Symptom: user presses Undo while a running agent holds the session;
POST /session/abort fails; the error is swallowed and revert then runs
against a still-busy session, leaving the UI in an indeterminate state.

packages/app/src/pages/session.tsx:2034 — removed .catch(() => {})
on sdk.client.session.abort so failures propagate through the existing
fail(err) toast path and surface visibly to the user. Same fix at
packages/codeplane/src/tui/routes/session/index.tsx:840 (TUI undo hotkey)
and packages/codeplane/src/tui/component/prompt/index.tsx:1363 (TUI
promptAsync submit — replaced empty .catch(() => {}) with a toast).

3. Image attachments silently dropped on IME composition end

Symptom: user uploads an image and continues typing; on IME composition end
the reconcile re-runs with .filter(p => p.type !== "image"), stripping
the image from the prompt without any feedback.

packages/app/src/components/prompt-input.tsx:589 — reconciled the full
prompt array without the image filter.

Desktop

4. Update card stuck in "Checking for updates…" forever

Symptom: user opens the desktop Updates panel and clicks check; electron-updater
fires its first onProgress event but the card stays on "Checking for
updates…" because prev.kind === "loading" matched neither "downloading"
nor "available".

packages/desktop/src/setup/app.tsx:483 — added prev.kind === "loading"
transition arm that advances the state to "downloading" with current
version + progress fields.

Mobile

5. Android hardware-back exits the app while BottomSheet is open

Symptom: user opens the create-server BottomSheet on the mobile picker and
presses Android's back button; the whole app exits because sheet state was
local to SetupScreen and App.handleBack had no visibility into it.

packages/mobile/src/app.tsx:handleBack — now checks sheet().kind !== "closed" and closes the sheet before falling through.
packages/mobile/src/screens/setup.tsx — sheet state lifted to App,
passed as sheet/setSheet props.

TUI

6. TUI session.undo hotkey silently swallows abort failure

Symptom: user presses the backward-step hotkey in the TUI while an agent is
running; abort fails silently and revert then hits a still-busy session.

packages/codeplane/src/tui/routes/session/index.tsx:840 — removed
.catch(() => {}).

7. TUI command execution error kills the fiber silently

Symptom: a TUI command throws (invalid argument, plugin runtime error); the
exception is unhandled, killing the TUI fiber with no user explanation.

packages/codeplane/src/tui/app.tsx:774 — wrapped command.trigger in
try/catch; errors now surface as a 5-second error toast.

Verification

  • bun turbo typecheck — passes (all 8 workspace packages)
  • bun lint — 0 errors (2906 pre-existing warnings unchanged)
  • git diff HEAD~1 --stat — 15 files changed, 118 insertions(+), 51 deletions(-)

Seven fixes with concrete, reproducible user-visible symptoms:

1. `packages/app/src/pages/session.tsx` — auto-scroll during history read
   Symptom: every incoming SSE message jumps the viewport back to the bottom,
   even when the user has intentionally scrolled up to read older history.
   Fix: gate the `messageId` reset on `!autoScroll.userScrolled()` so the
   viewport stays where the user put it.

2. `packages/app/src/pages/session.tsx` — silent session-abort failure
   Symptom: user presses Undo while an agent is running; the UI goes idle but
   the agent keeps consuming tokens on the server because the abort request
   failure was swallowed and the subsequent revert then hit a still-busy
   session.
   Fix: removed `.catch(() => {})` on `sdk.client.session.abort` so
   failures propagate through the existing `fail(err)` path and surface a
   toast to the user.

3. `packages/app/src/components/prompt-input.tsx` — image attachments dropped
   Symptom: user uploads an image then types additional text; on IME
   composition end the image is silently stripped from the prompt because
   `reconcile` was called with `.filter(p => p.type !== "image")`.
   Fix: reconcile the full prompt array without the image filter.

4. `packages/desktop/src/setup/app.tsx` — update card stuck in "loading"
   Symptom: user opens the desktop Updates panel, clicks check, electron-updater
   fires its first `onProgress` event with a valid `percent`, but the card
   stays on "Checking for updates…" indefinitely because `prev.kind ===
   "loading"` matched neither the `"downloading"` nor `"available"` branch.
   Fix: add a `prev.kind === "loading"` transition arm that advances the
   state to `"downloading"` with the current version + progress fields.

5. `packages/codeplane/src/tui/routes/session/index.tsx` — TUI undo aborts
   Symptom: user presses the backward-step hotkey in the TUI session view
   while an agent is running; the abort request fails silently and the
   revert then runs against a still-busy session.
   Fix: removed `.catch(() => {})` on the abort call.

6. `packages/codeplane/src/tui/component/prompt/index.tsx` — TUI submit
   failure silent
   Symptom: user presses Enter in the TUI, the `promptAsync` request fails
   (network, 5xx), the dock stays in indeterminate state with no feedback.
   Fix: replaced empty `.catch(() => {})` with an error toast that reports
   the server's message.

7. `packages/codeplane/src/tui/app.tsx` — TUI command execution error silent
   Symptom: a TUI command throws (invalid argument, plugin runtime error);
   the exception is unhandled, killing the TUI fiber with no user-visible
   explanation.
   Fix: wrapped `command.trigger` in try/catch and surfaced the error via
   toast.

Pull request overview

This PR targets multiple user-impacting reliability issues across the web app, desktop shell, TUI, and server—primarily around abort handling, websocket lifecycle cleanup, and making failure modes more visible.

Changes:

  • Improves cleanup/abort behavior (SSE reconnect listeners, worker bus forwarding teardown, request timeouts, Windows process stop).
  • Hardens UI flows against edge states (TUI tool part state optionality, prompt submission error toasts, desktop updater progress during loading).
  • Makes server startup/runtime failures more explicit and reduces resource leakage (rethrow worker start failures, better proxy websocket teardown, stream destruction on error).

Triage — Keep Open

Confirmed real defects in this PR. Copilot review already flagged them; no past agent commentary here.

Defects found

  1. Buffer.from(...) breaks web build (packages/app/src/utils/server-auth.ts): Buffer is not polyfilled by Vite in the browser. The new UTF-8-safe Basic Auth encoding will throw at runtime in the web app. Needs TextEncoder + btoa or equivalent browser-native path.
  2. Timeout not honored when external AbortSignal provided (checkServerAuth + verifyTotp): The internal controller is aborted on timeout, but the request uses opts.signal, so the timeout has no effect. Also fails to handle the already-aborted external signal case.
  3. remote.onclose usually never closes local ws (packages/codeplane/src/server/proxy.ts): The remote?.readyState !== WebSocket.CLOSED guard is checked after the remote socket is already CLOSED, so ws.close(...) almost never fires, leaving proxied clients hanging.

Why not close

All three are real user-impacting bugs — one breaks web auth outright, one silently ignores timeouts, one leaks WebSocket connections. Keep open until addressed.
