Agent Home pages. An agent can keep a dashboard.html in its project root; the host reads it and pushes it over the existing agent WebSocket, so a chat client can render it beside the conversation. Sent on connect and after any run that changed the file, with a per-connection (mtime, size) check so an untouched Home costs nothing per turn. host() writes a polished starter on day zero and never clobbers yours. Buttons carrying data-ochat-skill run a skill as a visible chat turn. See docs/network/dashboard.md.
co syno — drive your Synology NAS from the terminal.
co ai YOLO mode — skip the approval prompts when you want it to just go.
Agents can declare how long they need a browser tab, so a long job isn't cut off by tab contention.

co ai and the project templates drive the browser through co browser rather than 40 in-process tools — one browser story instead of two.
Deploy polls the full build window and validates the project name locally before uploading, so a typo fails fast instead of halfway through a build.

The [env] diagnostic only prints when stderr is a terminal, so it no longer pollutes piped output.
A live daemon's socket is no longer unlinked on a non-refusal OSError.
Unit tests are hermetic, and send_email works without a .env file.

co browser runs natively on Windows — the daemon speaks named pipes (stdlib, HMAC-authenticated) on Windows and keeps its Unix socket byte-identical on macOS/Linux. No WSL.
Zero-setup browser: the first page-driving co browser command auto-installs chromium (per-user, no admin rights) when no browser exists; desktop Chrome is auto-detected and preferred.

Windows: emoji/Unicode CLI output no longer crashes on legacy codepages (cp1252) — including when co is driven through a pipe by Claude Code/codex.
co browser go_to no longer rewrites file:///about:/data: URLs into broken https:// forms.
Offline first run: co init now degrades gracefully (friendly one-liner, scaffold + keypair still created) instead of aborting with a traceback; authenticate() carries a 15s network timeout.
Docs: removed nonexistent co init --no-ai/--update-docs flags; fixed the stale auth URL reference.

New windows-e2e CI job simulates a real Windows user end to end: wheel install, PowerShell 7 / 5.1 / cmd.exe, offline first run, CJK + space home directory, fresh-laptop browser auto-install (real download), three parallel agents, Task-Manager-kill recovery, authkey self-healing.
Windows unit/daemon matrix on Python 3.10/3.12/3.13; concurrency tests (8 simultaneous clients, cold-start singleton race).

co email: get_emails now reads the API's text/html body fields (falling back to legacy text_body/html_body), so co email inbox and co email read show the message body instead of an empty string.
co browser: take_screenshot prints the saved file path instead of dumping the base64 image to the terminal.
