## Agent Trading Cards
"Create Agent Card" action in the agent panel that mints an AI-generated
trading card PNG which **is** the agent: the card carries the
`buzz_agent_snapshot` tEXt chunk and is drag-in importable like any
snapshot PNG.
### What's in here
- **Mint pipeline (Rust):** one OpenAI Responses call — `gpt-5.6-sol` as
card designer with `gpt-image-2` via the `image_generation` tool (~2–3
min). New `mint_agent_card` / `save_agent_card` commands; preview with
reroll; save or send as `.agent.png` with round-trip verification before
any bytes leave the app.
- **Snapshot/chunk work stays in Rust,** reusing the existing
encoder/decoder seams (byte-compat golden vector proves the plain path
is identical to the pre-envelope encoder for placeholder, PNG-injection,
and JPEG-transcode paths).
- **Locked cards (NIP-44):** optional `buzz-agent-snapshot-encrypted`
envelope encrypted to the (owner, agent) pair. `parse_canonical_pubkey`
performs lift-x curve validation before any API spend; wrong-key decrypt
returns a fixed refusal; the plain decoder refuses locked cards.
- **Guardrails:** 10 MiB ceiling on final bytes, memory structurally
`none` in the snapshot, full-manifest import disclosure, API-key hygiene
via env layering (record > persona > global > process), fail-early
validation ordering (all key/lock/NIP-44-cap checks before Responses
spend).
- **Import side:** full-manifest disclosure dialog, locked-card import
disclosure, bounded avatar fetch.
### Review
Code reviewed by Wren across the full arc; final locked-card
cross-review **APPROVED 9/9/9** at exactly this head (`64f819dc8`), with
independent same-SHA verification: Rust lib 1,843/1,843, clippy
`--all-targets -D warnings`, desktop file-size gate.
### Live-mint evidence (real API, shipping seams, this SHA)
- **Plain (Honey):** 188s, 1500x2250, 5,101,503 bytes (< 10 MiB);
decoded manifest == built manifest; memory=none.
- **Locked (Fizz):** 176s, 4,670,184 bytes; owner-key and agent-key
decrypt both verified via logical manifest compare; wrong-key refusal
exact; plain decoder refuses.
- **Live finding:** built-in agents' ~171 KB inline avatars exceed the
NIP-44 65,535-byte plaintext cap and the fail-early guard fires before
API spend — clean error path, noted as a UX follow-up for large-avatar
agents choosing lock.

## Context
Pocket TTS currently offers bundled reference voices. People also need a
local, private way to add a voice without sending audio to a cloud
service.
## Summary
Add a Pocket voice import flow to Voice settings. Buzz opens the native
file picker, decodes common audio formats in the reusable `buzz-voice`
crate, canonicalizes the selected audio, stores it under a
content-derived identity in app data, selects it, and lets the user
delete it later.
## Changes
- Accept WAV, M4A, MP3, FLAC, OGG, and AIFF files between 2 and 30
seconds, including multichannel sources.
- Decode and downmix accepted audio to canonical mono 32 kHz PCM16 WAV
before hashing and storage.
- Store imported voices behind stable `pocket:imported:<sha256>`
identities and content-addressed files.
- Keep absolute file paths inside the native process and expose only
voice metadata to React.
- Include imported voices in Pocket preview and live huddle playback.
- Add Add voice and delete controls while preserving the bundled Pocket
voice catalog.
- Fall back to Mary when the selected imported voice is deleted.
- Keep durable import, selection, and deletion successful when a live
TTS worker acknowledgement is delayed.
- Preserve bundled voices when optional import metadata is unreadable
and keep failed deletion retryable.
## Related issue
None found.
## Testing
Production decoding was exercised with WAV, M4A with AAC, MP3, FLAC, OGG
Vorbis, and AIFF fixtures. Each format canonicalized to mono 32 kHz
PCM16 WAV. Manual validation in the combined daily-driver build covered
native-picker import, Preview, live-huddle playback, deletion, and Mary
fallback.
## Screenshots
The Voice settings card preserves the bundled Pocket catalog and adds
the local Add voice action.

## Reviewer-reproducible examples
Create common-format fixtures and run them through the production
importer:
```bash
. ./bin/activate-hermit
fixtures="$(mktemp -d)"
ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -f lavfi -i "sine=frequency=220:duration=3" -ac 2 -ar 44100 "$fixtures/voice.wav"
ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -i "$fixtures/voice.wav" -c:a aac "$fixtures/voice.m4a"
ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -i "$fixtures/voice.wav" "$fixtures/voice.mp3"
ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -i "$fixtures/voice.wav" "$fixtures/voice.flac"
ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -i "$fixtures/voice.wav" -c:a libvorbis "$fixtures/voice.ogg"
ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel error -i "$fixtures/voice.wav" -c:a pcm_s16be "$fixtures/voice.aiff"
BUZZ_VOICE_IMPORT_TEST_DIR="$fixtures" \
cargo test -p buzz-voice imports_common_audio_format_fixtures -- --ignored --nocapture
```
Exercise import persistence, synthesis, deletion, and bundled-voice
fallback with an installed Pocket model:
```bash
BUZZ_POCKET_MODEL_DIR=/path/to/pocket-model-bundle \
cargo test -p buzz-voice --test pocket_import_audio \
objective_import_synthesis_delete_and_mary_fallback \
-- --ignored --nocapture
```
Exercise the native-picker boundary, selection, preview dispatch,
deletion, cancellation, and invalid-file states:
```bash
cd desktop
pnpm build:e2e
pnpm exec playwright test tests/e2e/voice-settings.spec.ts --project=smoke

Relands **#2467** (extract `buzz-voice` crate) and **#3208** (Pocket
voice settings) onto main, after #3266 and #3180 merged.
## Why a fresh PR
The repo is squash-only with delete-branch-on-merge. Squashing #3266
deleted `jtennant/pocket-tts-2026-04`, which was #2467's base — GitHub
auto-closed #2467 and it cannot be reopened. Squash merges also sever
ancestry, so GitHub's natural merge-base reports phantom conflicts for
the whole remaining stack.
## Content provenance
- Byte-identical to the blessed `jt/buzz-voice-refactor` branch
(`93029c577`, tree `6729e0eff` — reviewed by Dawn (#2467) and Max
(#3208) at exact heads) **except** the three files where #3180 and #3208
genuinely interact.
- Three-file resolution (union of both sides):
- `huddle/mod.rs` — #3180's pipeline re-exports + #3208's
`agent_tts_routing` imports.
- `huddle/state.rs` — `reset_preserving_generation` preserves both
`huddle_generation` (#3180) and `tts_enabled` (#3208); test sets merged
into one `tests` module.
- `desktop/src/testing/e2eBridge.ts` — both switch arms kept; no
duplicate case labels.
## Verification at cf32dacd7
- `cargo test` (desktop/src-tauri, pinned 1.95.0): **2047 + 3 pass / 0
fail** (14 ignored: 8 keychain, 4 real_relay, 2 flag-gated)
- `cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings`: clean; `cargo fmt
--check`: clean
- `cargo check --workspace` (root, includes new `buzz-voice` member):
clean; `cargo test -p buzz-voice`: 5/0
- `pnpm test`: **3885 / 0**; `tsc --noEmit`: clean; lint: clean
The 3180×3208 interaction resolution is getting an independent team
re-review before merge.

## Context
Before this change, every huddle initialized with transcription off.
Joining or adding an agent did not enable it, so the agent could not
receive spoken conversation until a person clicked the transcript
control. Starting a huddle from an agent DM could also omit that agent,
and adding an agent who already belonged to the parent channel could
attempt an unnecessary role change and show a warning.
Agent detection uses authoritative huddle membership. A participant
counts as an agent when the ephemeral membership identifies it with the
`bot` role, or when the existing agent identity model identifies the
participant in an agent DM.
## Summary
Buzz now enables transcription once when the first authoritative agent
is present. After that initial automatic action, explicit user control
is authoritative: manual ON or OFF survives membership refreshes,
reconnects, and UI remounts. Removing the last agent does not change the
current transcription state.
Agent-DM huddles enroll the agent automatically. Adding an agent who
already belongs to the parent channel preserves the existing parent role
and completes without a role-mutation warning.
| Scenario | Before | With this change |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First authoritative agent joins or is hydrated | Transcription stays
off | Transcription turns on once |
| User explicitly turns transcription on or off | Manual control exists
without an agent policy | The explicit choice suppresses later automatic
changes |
| Last agent leaves | No defined agent-presence behavior | The current
transcription state remains unchanged |
| Huddle starts from an agent DM | The agent can be omitted | The known
agent is enrolled automatically |
| Added agent already belongs to the parent channel | Buzz can attempt a
role rewrite and warn | Existing parent membership and role are
preserved |
| Transcription is active | The control is not visually distinct | The
control is highlighted and exposes `aria-pressed=true` |
## Changes
- Derive agent presence from authoritative bot-role huddle membership
and known agent-DM identity.
- Apply the one-time auto-enable rule during create, join, membership
hydration, reconnect, pipeline startup, and local agent addition.
- Preserve explicit user state and use huddle-generation guards so stale
asynchronous work cannot alter a replacement huddle.
- Keep backend and React transcription state synchronized, with a
visible and accessible active control.
- Enroll known agent-DM participants and make parent-channel membership
updates idempotent.
- Cover hydration ordering, reconnects, remounts, explicit OFF,
last-agent removal, DM enrollment, existing membership, and active
styling.
## Related issue
None found.
## Testing
Manual validation in `pending-seed` confirmed the product contract:
1. Started a huddle from the owned, running Fizz agent DM.
2. Confirmed the authoritative roster contained the human and Fizz as an
agent.
3. Confirmed transcription enabled without clicking the control: `Stop
transcript`, `aria-pressed=true`, with the highlighted active
background.
4. Turned transcription off and confirmed `Start transcript`,
`aria-pressed=false` remained stable.
5. Removed Fizz while transcription was off and confirmed the state
stayed off.
6. Left the huddle cleanly.
## Screenshots
The same control has distinct active and inactive states.


## Reviewer-reproducible examples
From a fresh checkout:
```bash
pnpm --dir desktop build:e2e
pnpm --dir desktop exec playwright test tests/e2e/huddle-transcription.spec.ts --project=smoke
pnpm --dir desktop exec playwright test tests/e2e/mentions.spec.ts --project=smoke --grep "system agent profile exposes owned agent actions|system agent avatar exposes owned agent actions|owned bot profile exposes message and huddle actions|owned agent mention profile exposes message and huddle actions"
```
The huddle scenario exercises initial authoritative hydration, exactly
one automatic enable, explicit OFF persistence, unchanged state after
last-agent removal, newer events winning over delayed hydration,
agent-DM enrollment, and idempotent parent membership. It also asserts
`aria-pressed` and distinct computed active styling.

## Summary
Adds a locally stored **NIP-49 encrypted key backup** (`ncryptsec`) to
the desktop app, per the plan reviewed in buzz-development (Rev 3,
approved 9/10 by Wren; implementation also reviewed and approved 9/10).
**Two-artifact design — canonical bytes originate entirely in Rust:**
- `create_ncryptsec_backup` runs under the `identity_mutation` lock:
encrypt → decrypt-verify against the live pubkey → atomic `0o600` write
to `{app_data_dir}/identity.ncryptsec` → reread/byte-compare → return
the exact persisted bytes. The frontend never re-derives or re-encrypts.
- `save_ncryptsec_copy` writes a portable copy via the save dialog
(parse-gated, secret-file semantics) and never mutates canonical state.
- `generate_backup_passphrase`: 6 words from the EFF short wordlist via
`OsRng` (custom passphrases min 12 chars).
- Import accepts `ncryptsec1` with optional password; the raw-`nsec`
path is untouched. Different-pubkey import and sign-out wipe the
app-managed backup (post-commit, best-effort — a failed import can never
destroy the still-live identity's backup; regression-tested).
**Never-relay guarantee (egress guard + tripwires):**
- `egress_guard.rs` fail-closed at all 8 `/events` submission boundaries
(relay submit funnel, 3× `relay.rs`, huddle STT, both engram submitters,
native WS choke point), rejecting `ncryptsec1`/`NCRYPTSEC1` in text and
binary frames. Scope is deliberately ncryptsec-only: pairing
intentionally carries raw nsec inside its encrypted session.
- Site-granular `/events` inventory tripwire: per-file (`/events` count,
guard-call count) pairs; unlisted files expect zero. Mutation-style
tests prove a ninth site in an existing file, a removed guard, and a new
unlisted file all fail the scan.
- ncryptsec source-allowlist scans in **both** trees (Rust + TS).
**Frontend:** onboarding `BackupStep` is encrypted-by-default — the
default path never invokes `get_nsec` (e2e asserts the command log).
Raw-nsec export stays behind an explicit click with prior semantics.
Shared `EncryptedBackupCreator` powers onboarding + a new settings row;
the import form auto-switches to encrypted mode on `ncryptsec1` paste
(case-insensitive HRP).
**Open product call for @tlongwell-block:** onboarding default is
*encrypted* in this PR; flipping to raw-default is a small change either
way (documented in the plan).
Review history: plan Rev 3 and the implementation were both iterated
with Wren to 9/10 (two blockers from round 1 — import ordering,
inventory granularity — plus an uppercase-bech32 hardening gap, all
fixed in `dde37183e`). Thread: buzz-development.
### Related issue
Follow-up to the direction explored in #385 (NIP-PB, closed) — this
ships local NIP-49 (the standard) instead of a new NIP. No open
duplicate found.
### Testing
All at exactly `dde37183e` (same shell, HEAD verified):
- `cargo test` — 1680 passed / 0 failed / 14 ignored (includes a
deliberate ~70s log_n-18 NIP-49 round trip, spec vector, wrong-password,
NFKC, uppercase-vector decrypt, injection test per egress boundary,
inventory mutation tests, import-ordering regression tests)
- `cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings` — clean; `cargo fmt
--check` — clean
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean; JS unit suite 3529/3529; biome (repo-pinned
2.4.16) clean
- Playwright `onboarding-backup` / `onboarding` /
`onboarding-agent-defaults` / `profile-nsec-reveal` — 86 passed, 1 known
avatar-reservation flake (passed on rerun; untouched by this diff).
`passThroughBackupStep` now exercises the encrypted default, so every
downstream onboarding spec covers the new path.
- Note: browser e2e fakes the crypto via the mock bridge (fixed
spec-vector blob); decryption correctness is proven in the Rust tests.
## Latest onboarding integration
The current head adds an additive `IdentityInfo.storage` field
(`ephemeral`, `system-keyring`, `local-file`, or `environment`) so
onboarding can accurately explain where the active identity is
protected. It surfaces storage metadata only—never key material—and
leaves the existing lost/keyring-locked recovery behavior intact.

## Summary
- report the relay as connected immediately after socket open and
successful AUTH
- keep rate-limited subscription replay, the connect promise, and
reconnect listeners unchanged
- cover authenticated reconnect while replay is held behind the shared
rate-limit gate
## Why
After WARP recovery, the socket could reopen and authenticate
successfully while subscription replay waited behind the existing
rate-limit gate. `connect()` kept `ConnectionState` at `reconnecting`
during that intentional delay, so the desktop displayed “Can’t reach the
relay” despite authenticated traffic already flowing.
This is separate from #3774: that fix keeps routine operations from
bypassing scheduled reconnect backoff. This patch preserves those
protections and only corrects the authenticated transport-state
boundary.
## Failure semantics
If replay fails after the early `connected` transition, the existing
`replayLiveSubscriptions()` catch calls `resetConnection()`, closes the
socket, returns state to `reconnecting`, and schedules recovery.
Operation waiters and reconnect notifications still do not complete
until replay succeeds.
## Validation
At commit `c8a4308e1079f4f9e6a72f0f0bfba280fe822ec0` with a clean
working tree:
- `pnpm --dir desktop typecheck`

- `pnpm --dir desktop check` — passed; two pre-existing informational
template-literal notices
- `pnpm --dir desktop exec playwright test

Windows installs of Goose and other harnesses failed at exactly five
minutes with an empty error (#2401). The 300s ceiling was killing
installs that were working, just slowly — the Goose step pulls a ~79MB
release asset, and Windows Defender scans every file npm extracts. When
the ceiling fired it discarded the output it had already read, so the
user got a bare timeout string and no way to tell a hang from a large
download.
## The ceiling
`INSTALL_TIMEOUT` is 900s, and the error names the limit: `install
command exceeded the 15m ceiling and was terminated`. It stays a pure
wall-clock ceiling with no inactivity kill — nothing observable
distinguishes a hung installer from one silently transferring a large
artifact, so silence alone never kills an install. A ceiling kill
remains non-retryable; re-running a command that already burned 15
minutes costs the user more time with no plausible path to success.
The child's exit and both stream drains fold into one resumable settle
governed by a single deadline. Waiting on the drains outside that
deadline would let a descendant that outlived the install shell hold the
output pipes — and the per-runtime install guard behind them — open with
no bound, which is the failure the ceiling exists to prevent. So the
deadline path terminates the process group on the normal-exit branch
too: a leader that exited with a real status still gets its stragglers
killed, and the guard cannot stick either way. Whether the leader had
already exited only decides the verdict — its real status outranks a
timeout.
The install shell is a session leader and its descendants inherit the
output pipes, so signalling only the leader left them running and the
drains blocked on a pipe nobody would close. Escalation keys off the
*group's* liveness rather than the leader's, since a descendant that
ignores SIGTERM outlives the leader and would otherwise never receive
the group SIGKILL. Reaping the killed child and finishing the drains
share one bounded grace, so a termination that failed outright cannot
extend the ceiling that just fired.
## Output capture
Each stream drains into a bounded capture that is *shared* with the
reader rather than returned by it, so whatever arrived before a stall is
readable at the ceiling — exactly when the output matters most. Output
of any size costs a fixed amount of memory.
One capture holds two independently bounded views of the same bytes:
| View | Head / tail | Cut marker |
|------|-------------|------------|
| UI (`InstallStepResult`) | 512 B / 1024 B | `... (N bytes omitted)
...` |
| Log file | 128 KiB / 128 KiB | `... [N bytes omitted at cap] ...` |
The UI budget is screen space; the log's is disk. Both markers are
inline, so neither ever implies completeness it does not have. Both ends
are cut at arbitrary byte offsets, so a partial character is trimmed and
the partial token each cut left behind is dropped — the marker's byte
count includes both trims.
## Install log
`steps` carries only the last attempt of each step, truncated for
display. Everything else — earlier retries, the prerequisite step that
actually broke, the managed-Node bootstrap — used to be discarded.
`InstallReporter` now appends one self-contained record per attempt of
per step to `install-<runtime-id>.log` beside the agent logs, and
`InstallRuntimeResult.log_path` carries the file to the UI, where a
failure message ends with `Full log: <path>`.
Each record is bounded independently by the log-scale capture that
produced it, so a first attempt that printed megabytes cannot push out
the later record explaining the failure; the run's total is bounded by
steps × attempts × per-record cap. Every early return builds its result
through one `InstallReporter::failed` helper, so no failure path can
omit the log pointer, and synthesized steps go through `record_step` — a
step that reaches the UI without passing it would be invisible in the
file.
Install output can echo a registry token or proxy credential from the
environment it ran in, and the file is written unattended. Redaction
keys off the *names* of the environment variables the install inherited,
snapshotted once per run, rather than a list of known secret value
prefixes: a credential with no recognisable shape is exactly the one a
prefix match misses. Three name rules apply, because the variables need
different treatment:
| Rule | Variables | Redacted |
|------|-----------|----------|
| URL userinfo | `HTTP_PROXY`, `HTTPS_PROXY`, `ALL_PROXY`,
`NPM_CONFIG_PROXY`, `NPM_CONFIG_HTTPS_PROXY`, `NPM_CONFIG_REGISTRY` |
`user:password` only |
| Exact name | `NPM_CONFIG_KEY`, `NPM_CONFIG__AUTH`, `NPM_CONFIG_OTP` |
whole value |
| Marker substring | `*TOKEN*`, `*SECRET*`, `*PASSWORD*`, `*_PAT`, … |
whole value, 8-byte floor |
A proxy or registry keeps its host and port, because an install that
fails behind one is diagnosable only if the record still says which one
it went through, and a bare `user@` with no password is not treated as a
credential. npm's own settings are listed by exact name rather than
matched on `KEY` or `AUTH` substrings — both occur throughout an
ordinary environment on values that are paths and people's names — and
they bypass the 8-byte floor, since a six-digit one-time password is a
credential at that length. Matching is case-insensitive, which is what
npm's lowercase `npm_config_*` spelling needs. `0o600` is set by the
create rather than a later `chmod`, which would leave a window where the
umask decides. A runtime id that cannot safely be a filename yields no
log rather than a sanitized one — a rewritten id could collide with
another runtime's log.
The file holds exactly one run. A run opens its own session after the
runtime id has been canonically resolved — the previous file rotates to
`.1` and any older `.1` is removed before the rename, since a rename
that will not replace its destination would otherwise wedge rotation
permanently on Windows. The session writes a header naming the runtime,
the app version (`app.package_info().version` on the Rust side — cannot
be mocked or fail), the OS (`std::env::consts::OS`), and the start time:
a Windows failure and a macOS one on the same runtime are different
bugs, and a stale app version explains a failure that no longer
reproduces. Each record carries its attempt's elapsed time.
## Live output line
A 15-minute ceiling with nothing behind it but a spinner is
indistinguishable from a hang. The same drain seam feeds an
`acp-install-output` event carrying the newest complete line, and the
three install entry points — Doctor harness rows, the harness catalog
dialog, and onboarding runtime cards — render it under the spinner with
`aria-live="polite"`.
Ordering is keyed on a `seq` monotonic across the whole install, not on
the attempt number, which restarts at 1 for every step: keyed on
attempt, one step succeeding on attempt 2 would make the next step's
attempt-1 output look stale and freeze the display for the rest of the
install. Each executed attempt begins with an unthrottled `line: null`
clear signal, so a stale failure line cannot sit under the spinner while
the retry runs. Events are otherwise throttled to four per second, and
the throttle *retains* the newest pending line and flushes it when the
window reopens rather than dropping it — at an attempt boundary a drop
would silently eat the new attempt's first line.
The subscription is mounted for the runtime's whole lifetime rather than
started when the install begins. The install command is invoked from the
click handler, so the clear and a fast command's first lines can be
emitted before React has committed the pending state, and nothing
replays them — a subscription that waited for that state would lose the
entire output of a short install. The run boundary resets the ordering
key when the install settles, since `seq` restarts for the next run, and
the line renders only while installing, so a straggler from a finishing
drain cannot appear under a fresh Install button.
The 15-minute ceiling deliberately stops waiting on stuck drain threads
— a hung installer must not freeze the app. That means a drain thread
can outlive its `InstallReporter`. Without a generation guard, a drain
that calls `offer` after the run settles would publish an event with the
run's high `seq`, poison the permanent listener's React state, and cause
the next install's restarted `seq=0` events to be rejected. `Live` now
carries a `lifecycle: Arc<RwLock<bool>>`; drain threads hold a **shared
read guard** from the admission check through the `(self.emit)(...)`
call, making the check-then-emit pair atomic with respect to shutdown.
`InstallReporter::drop` takes the **exclusive write guard** and stores
`false` — this blocks until every in-flight drain publication releases
its read guard, then prevents any new admission. Deactivation is
bounded: the write lock holds only for the flag store, so it can block
at most for the duration of one emit call (microseconds to low
milliseconds). Rust drops locals in reverse-declaration order, so
`reporter` drops before `_guard`, ensuring the exclusive write completes
before the per-runtime concurrency guard releases and a new install can
start.
## Also
Install result types move to `desktop/src/shared/api/installTypes.ts`,
following the existing `searchTypes.ts` / `workflowTypes.ts` convention,
and are re-exported from `tauri.ts` and `types.ts` — both already over
the file-size cap, so neither can grow to carry them.
Two comments described `AdapterOutdated` as applying only to the
deprecated package; it also covers a version below the supported floor.

## Summary
- make the relay reconnect coordinator authoritative during outages so
query, publish, and subscription traffic waits for the scheduled attempt
instead of cancelling backoff
- release waiting operations after the coordinated AUTH +
live-subscription replay attempt, while preserving one explicit manual
reconnect fast path
- suppress duplicate notification side effects when reconnect replay
overlaps previously delivered events
## Root cause
`resetConnection()` scheduled exponential backoff, but
`ensureConnected()` cleared any pending reconnect timer. Operation-level
retry paths immediately called `ensureConnected()`, so ordinary app
traffic could repeatedly bypass the reconnect policy during an outage.
The resulting churn also replayed overlapping live events into
notification side effects without a shared event-ID guard.
## Validation
- `pnpm --dir desktop typecheck`
- `pnpm --dir desktop test` — 3,823 passed
- pre-push: `desktop-check`, `desktop-test`, and `branch-skew` passed
- file-size, px-text, and pubkey-truncation ratchets passed

**Category:** new-feature
**User Impact:** Users can create, download, and verify a
password-protected backup of their private identity from desktop
Settings.
**Problem:** Buzz does not currently give signed-in users a
Settings-based path to protect or validate their private identity
independently of onboarding. **Solution:** Add a focused backup menu to
the private-key row, keep encryption and verification local in Rust, and
preserve completed encrypted backups briefly so native saves can be
retried without repeating encryption.
<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>
**desktop/src/features/settings/**
Adds the background backup lifecycle, create and test dialogs,
private-key menu integration, password handling, and focused unit
coverage.
**desktop/src/features/onboarding/ui/NsecMaskedDisplay.tsx**
Extends the masked private-key display with reusable overflow-menu
actions used by Settings.
**desktop/src/app/App.tsx**
Mounts the backup provider at app scope so encryption and save work
survive closing Settings or the modal.
**desktop/src/shared/api/tauriIdentity.ts**
Adds typed desktop bindings for local backup creation, save, selection,
and verification.
**desktop/src-tauri/src/key_backup.rs and
desktop/src-tauri/src/commands/identity.rs**
Implements local NIP-49 encryption, password generation, file handling,
and public-identity-only verification results.
**desktop/src-tauri/src/egress_guard.rs and guarded call sites**
Blocks encrypted secret material from relay, websocket, snapshot,
sharing, and huddle egress paths.
**desktop/src-tauri tests and fixtures**
Covers encryption, verification, file behavior, and fail-closed
no-egress protections.
**desktop/src/testing/e2eBridge.ts, desktop/tests/, and
desktop/playwright.config.ts**
Expands the mock native bridge and browser coverage across create,
retry, expiry, and current/different-identity verification states.
**desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml, Cargo.lock, and assets**
Adds the local cryptography/password-generation dependencies and
embedded short-word list.
</details>
## Reproduction steps
1. Run the desktop app and open **Settings → Profile → Identity**.
2. Open the private-key overflow menu and choose **Create backup**.
3. Enter or generate a valid password, submit, and confirm progress
continues if the dialog or Settings is closed.
4. Save the resulting `.ncryptsec` file; cancel and retry to confirm the
temporary download remains available.
5. Choose **Test backup**, select the file, enter a wrong password, then
retry with the correct password.
6. Confirm success identifies whether the backup matches the current
identity and displays only the public `npub`.

## Why
People joining a community with an existing relay profile should not be
asked to recreate their name and avatar.
## What
- Check the active identity's relay profile after the joined community
becomes active
- Skip directly to the starter-team step when a kind-0 profile event
exists
- Preserve the profile setup path when no event exists or discovery
fails
- Cover both new-profile and existing-profile join paths in E2E tests
## Risk Assessment
Low — the lookup is scoped to the community onboarding profile stage,
runs once per transaction, and fails open to the existing flow.
## References
- `pnpm build:e2e && pnpm exec playwright test --project=integration

profile|community onboarding reuses an existing relay profile'` (2

## Summary
This is **part 1 of 2** split out from #3467 (per Tyler's request),
carrying only the mesh-scoped changes. The agent/ACP response-behavior
changes and the new `send_message` tool stay in #3467 as part 2. All
commits are @michaelneale's work, cherry-picked with authorship
preserved.
- Upgrade embedded Mesh to v0.74.0 (tag-pinned instead of commit rev)
and use canonical Gemma model IDs.
- Keep shared compute serving through member joins, roster changes, app
recovery, and community switching.
- Wait for actual model readiness and avoid resuming incomplete
downloads after quit.
- Leave `BUZZ_AGENT_THINKING_EFFORT` unset by default so each model's
chat template picks its own thinking default (`none` suppressed Gemma
tool-calling entirely; pinning `low` made Qwen3 burn ~4x output budget).
Explicit agent/persona/global values still win.
## Relationship to #3467
Contains the mesh commits from #3467 (`2cd640b23`, `0ad81c341`,
`ad13ed841`) rebased onto current main, with one deliberate exclusion:
the `crates/buzz-agent/src/llm.rs` reasoning→text parser change from
`2cd640b23` is **not** here. That change unconditionally affects every
OpenAI-compat/Responses provider, so it belongs with the reply-behavior
work in part 2, where it can be reviewed as what it is.
Not included (remaining in #3467 / part 2):
- typed `send_message` tool in dev-mcp + `BUZZ_ACP_SEND_MESSAGE_TOOL`
gating
- plain-reply delivery fallback in buzz-acp
(`BUZZ_ACP_DELIVER_PLAIN_REPLIES`)
- the mesh_agent_e2e P5/P6 rewrite (exists to prove the reply path)
- the two `env.insert` preset opt-ins in `relay_mesh.rs` for the flags
above
- the llm.rs parser change
This PR is independently mergeable; part 2's flags are all off by
default so it can land before or after.
## Testing
- `cargo test -p buzz-relay --locked` — 780 passed (one telemetry test
is order-sensitive under parallel default settings; passes in the
pre-push suite and standalone, unrelated to this diff — files untouched
here).
- `just desktop-tauri-test` (default features) — 1877 passed.
- `cargo test --locked --features mesh-llm` in `desktop/src-tauri` —
1961 passed, including the new relay-mesh preset and
coordinator/recovery tests.
- Both `Cargo.lock`s resolve with `--locked` against the v0.74.0 tag.
- Full pre-push hook suite green (rust-tests, desktop-check/test, tauri
checks).
Live validation of the mesh v0.74 upgrade itself is documented on #3467
(two-Mac cross-version test).

## Summary
- Add a **macOS-only** monochrome Buzz menu-bar icon with **Running**
and **Recent** agent sections.
- Show each agent as one selectable macOS row with `Name · elapsed` and
its channel underneath.
- Keep completed work available for quick channel re-entry, alongside
New Channel, Open Buzz, and Quit Buzz.
- Keep the main window alive on close and restore it from both the menu
bar and the macOS Dock.
- Fence queued channel actions by community generation so an in-flight
action from the previous community cannot navigate the newly selected
community.
- Leave Windows and Linux unchanged; cross-platform tray lifecycle
support can follow with platform-specific validation.

## Validation
- `cargo fmt --check`
- Desktop Tauri suite: 1,860 passed, 14 ignored after merging current
`main`
- Desktop tests: 3,769 passed
- Desktop lint, file-size, text, and pubkey checks pass (two
pre-existing informational template-literal notices)
- Regression coverage verifies stale `OpenChannel` actions are discarded
across community changes while `NewChannel` survives
## Manual validation remaining
A native macOS smoke test is still requested before merge: menu
appearance, elapsed updates, Running → Recent, channel navigation, New
Channel, minimized/closed/Dock restore, Open Buzz, and Quit. E2E stubs
the tray IPC and does not exercise the native menu.

## Summary
- Replace the permanently reserved composer activity row with a
conditional, content-driven accessory for channel and thread composers.
- Keep the composer dock geometrically stable while activity appears, so
the composer’s bottom edge resizes smoothly without shifting the
conversation.
- Preserve translucent backdrop blur during the resize with a stable
dock-level blur layer, and keep thread overlay/focus-mode alignment
consistent.
- Keep bottom-pinned virtualized conversations fully visible as composer
content, zoom, or viewport height changes without repinning readers who
have scrolled into history.
- Refine the activity lockup with aligned avatars/text and a subtle,
reduced-motion-safe shimmer.
- Centralize the dock’s quiet inset, activity rail, released space, and
activity offset in one CSS-variable geometry contract.
This takes a different, systemic route from the spacing reduction
proposed in #2602 and supersedes that approach.

- `just desktop-check`
- `just desktop-test` — 3,638 passing
- `useAnchoredScroll.test.mjs` — virtualized viewport resize follows the

multiline growth, viewport resize, reduced motion, blur ownership, and
thread overlay alignment
- Pre-push hooks passed for organization safety, branch skew, desktop
checks/tests, Rust tests, workspace tests, and desktop Tauri tests
- Mobile pre-push is independently red on latest `main`; the exact
`activity_page_test.dart` compiler failure reproduces on untouched

## Summary
- Adds a pure-TS operator parser (`from:` / `in:` / `after:` /
`before:`) with unit tests. Invalid date tokens stay in the FTS text.
- Extends `search_messages` so the desktop can send `authors` / `since`
/ `until` (and existing `#h`) on the filter the relay already
understands.
- Wires topbar search to strip operators from the prefix query, resolve
`in:` against local channels and `from:` against hex pubkeys / known
agents, then pass the structured fields through.
This is part 1 of #2853 (parser + command plumbing). Autocomplete chips
/ richer `from:@name` resolution can follow in a second PR.
## Test plan
- [x] `node --import ./test-loader.mjs --experimental-strip-types --test
src/features/search/lib/parseSearchOperators.test.mjs`
- [x] Added `search_messages_filter_emits_operator_fields` unit test
(full `buzz-desktop` crate build needs local sidecar binaries in this
environment)
- [ ] Manual: topbar `deploy from:<hex> after:2024-01-01` emits

## Context
Adding an existing community by relay URL could fail with `Community
rejected: Load failed` even when its WebSocket endpoint was reachable.
The Add Community flow fetched `/api/join-policy` from the WebView, so a
relay without a matching CORS allowance blocked the policy request
before the app could join it.
## Summary
This bug fix fetches join policies through Tauri's native networking
layer for direct URL joins. Invite-code discovery, policy acceptance,
and signed invite claims remain on the WebView path so those operations
can migrate together later.
## Changes
- Uses native networking for Add Community and first-community direct
URL join-policy requests.
- Validates relay schemes, rejects URLs containing credentials, and
refuses redirects.
- Bounds declared and chunked native responses before JSON parsing.
- Preserves existing `404`, non-success status, malformed JSON, and
absent-policy behavior.
- Requires every join-policy caller to choose its transport explicitly.
Public relays using Buzz's default permissive CORS configuration are not
known to be affected.
### Related issue
Related to #2872.
### Testing
#### Reviewer-reproducible examples
End-to-end red/green requires a relay with restrictive CORS and a Buzz
identity authorized to join it.
##### Red: `main`
From a clean checkout of `main`:
```bash
. ./bin/activate-hermit
just staging
```
In Buzz Desktop:
1. Add another community so the restrictive-CORS relay can be removed.
2. Remove that relay.
3. Open Add Community and enter the relay's WebSocket URL.
4. Select Add Community.
Observed result:
```text
Community rejected: Load failed
```
##### Green: this PR
From a clean checkout of this branch:
```bash
. ./bin/activate-hermit
just staging
```
Repeat the same steps above.
Observed result:
```text
The community rejoins successfully.
```
Supporting checks:
- Six native join-policy tests, including oversized declared and chunked
responses.
- Four TypeScript API tests, including the native command contract.
- E2E build and four focused onboarding and sidebar Playwright tests.
- Full `just ci` and pre-push suites.
- Builderbot, Kalvin, and minimize-diff review fanout found no
actionable issues after the final rebase.
**Category:** improvement
**User Impact:** Users can understand, install, authenticate, and manage
agent runtimes from one progressively disclosed Agents settings
experience.
**Problem:** Runtime health and custom harness management were split
across overlapping settings surfaces, exposing low-level configuration
too early while leaving setup and authentication states hard to
understand. **Solution:** Consolidate those operations into one stable
runtime list and an Add runtimes catalog, with task-oriented state
labels, direct setup actions, and custom configuration contained in a
dedicated form.

## Reproduction steps
1. Open Settings → Agents and inspect Agent runtimes; ready, signed-out,
installable, and setup-required runtimes should have stable rows and
explicit actions.
2. Open Add runtimes and browse the Setup and Installed groups; select
entries to see sourced guidance and a pinned Install or Setup guide
action.
3. Select Custom harness, create a runtime, then edit and delete it;
verify required-field gating and the blast-radius confirmation.
4. Exercise a signed-out runtime and connect it; the row should move
from Sign-in needed to Ready without reordering.

## Summary
Pull requests and issues that mention you now appear as
repository-scoped Inbox conversations, so project work can be reviewed
without first navigating to Projects.
Opening a project item resolves its current canonical state and reuses
the existing review, comment, merge, and issue actions. Repository-aware
grouping keeps identical event IDs from different repositories separate,
while loading, missing-data, and partial-query states avoid exposing
stale actions.
### Related issue
None found.
### Testing
- `node --import ./test-loader.mjs --experimental-strip-types --test
src/features/home/lib/projectInbox.test.mjs` — 6 tests passed
- `CI=1 pnpm exec playwright test tests/e2e/project-inbox.spec.ts
--project=smoke` — passed
- Pre-push desktop, mobile, Tauri, and Rust checks — passed

## Summary
Project issues, pull requests, reviews, and commit details no longer
flatten rich content into inert or plain text. They now share the
message markdown and media pipeline, preserving NIP-92 `imeta` metadata
so links, images, and videos render consistently.
Commit bodies are fetched only when a single-commit detail view is
opened, keeping list queries lightweight while exposing full context
beside the diff.
### Related issue
None found.
### Testing
- Pre-push suite: `desktop-check`, `desktop-test`, `desktop-tauri-test`,
`rust-tests`, and `mobile-test`
- Project issue and pull request regression tests cover preserving
attachment metadata on roots, updates, and comments
- The project commit detail smoke scenario verifies linked text, images,
and video in commit bodies

## Summary
- align the multi-community rail with the content surface and balance
its visible 10px side gutters
- center Mobile pairing, start sessions on demand, and keep retry states
inside the QR area
- reveal the QR code and copy action with 250ms motion and use the
standard loading spinner
The rail was centered within its own box, but the adjacent sidebar added
another 11px to the visible right gap. Mobile pairing also started
before user intent, which could leave an idle session waiting for EOSE.
## Validation
- `pnpm -C desktop build:e2e`
- `pnpm -C desktop test` — 3,516 passed
- `pnpm -C desktop exec playwright test tests/e2e/community-rail.spec.ts
--project=smoke` — 19 passed
- `pnpm -C desktop exec playwright test
tests/e2e/mobile-pairing-qr.spec.ts --project=smoke` — 1 passed
`pnpm -C desktop check` is currently blocked by the existing
`src-tauri/src/managed_agents/runtime.rs` file-size baseline (2,220
lines; limit 2,216).
## Summary
- render mobile pairing QR codes locally with Wallet-inspired styling
- hide the raw pairing URI behind a matching copy button
- add focused rendering and dialog coverage
## Test plan
- desktop lint and 3,489 desktop tests
- focused pairing dialog Playwright test
- decoded the rendered QR back to the exact pairing URI
## Why
Installing the Codex, Claude, or Goose desktop app does not install the
command-line harness Buzz needs. The current UI makes that distinction
unclear, links some missing-CLI states to adapter documentation, and can
report a successful install from the installer exit code even when
runtime discovery still fails. On Windows, Buzz also invokes Goose's
Bash installer, which writes the executable somewhere Buzz does not
discover.
## What
- distinguish missing vendor CLIs from missing or outdated ACP adapters
in runtime metadata and UI guidance
- link Codex, Claude Code, and Goose missing-CLI states to their
official CLI installation documentation
- explain in Settings, onboarding, and agent configuration that the
desktop app alone is not sufficient
- use Goose's official PowerShell installer on Windows
- refresh PATH and rediscover the requested runtime after installation,
keeping the control retryable if the runtime is still unavailable
- add Rust and Playwright regression coverage for Windows installer
selection, CLI/adapter guidance, false-success prevention, verified
installs, and onboarding copy
## Risk Assessment
Medium. This changes desktop onboarding and runtime installation
behavior. Successful installs now require the runtime catalog to verify
availability; previously hidden discovery failures will surface as
actionable errors instead of a false success state.

- focused Rust post-install verification tests
- focused Playwright Doctor/onboarding coverage (in progress; CI and
local sequential rerun will provide final results)
