## Summary
- open Huddles in a focused companion window with a clean handoff back
to the in-app drawer and backing channel
- redesign the participant film strip, sidebar control, transcript
surface, and themed shell treatment
- preserve microphone and device control across windows, start agent
voice on the first reply, and show agent speaking activity in the film
strip
- give each agent a distinct session voice, beginning with the
configured default, plus compact per-agent text-to-speech and voice
controls
- enroll only agents explicitly mentioned or deliberately added through
an agent panel into the live Huddle roster
- keep temporary Huddle channels out of the sidebar unless the user
explicitly brings one into the main app
- remove Huddle-only avatar policy badges and filter short silence or
noise segments before speech-to-text posts
## Why
The previous flow exposed the temporary channel as product UI, obscured
who was present or speaking, and split transcript and audio state
between the main and companion windows. This keeps backing channels as
implementation details unless a user explicitly brings a Huddle into the
app, while sharing the live conversation and audio lifecycle across both
surfaces. Agent participants now join only after an explicit invitation,
distinct voices make multi-agent Huddles easier to follow, and short
microphone noise no longer becomes stray transcript messages.
## Validation
- `pnpm check`
- `pnpm build:e2e`

**Category:** improvement
**User Impact:** Users can skip default model configuration during
onboarding and finish it later in Settings → Agents.
**Problem:** Requiring model defaults during onboarding can block users
who are not ready to choose a harness, provider, or model. Skipping also
needs to leave existing configuration untouched rather than persisting
partial selections.
**Solution:** Stage onboarding edits locally and persist them only when
users choose Next or Back. A delayed Skip action advances without any
configuration write, while a footer hint points users to the settings
location for completing setup later.
<details>
<summary>File changes</summary>
**desktop/src/features/onboarding/ui/DefaultConfigStep.tsx**
Adds the skip action and future-settings hint, and makes model
configuration transactional so Skip discards staged changes while Next
and Back preserve the intended save behavior.
**desktop/src/testing/e2eBridge.ts**
Exposes model-config setter call counts so tests can distinguish a true
zero-write skip from a write-and-rollback implementation.
**desktop/tests/e2e/onboarding-agent-defaults.spec.ts**
Covers skipping during loading and after staged edits, verifies zero
persistence calls, and confirms Next and Back still commit changes.
</details>
## Reproduction steps
1. Start fresh onboarding and continue through harness setup to
**Configure your default model settings**.
2. Change the selected harness or model, then choose **Skip for now**.
3. Confirm onboarding advances to **Join or create a community** and the
prior global model configuration remains unchanged.
4. Return through onboarding and confirm **Next** saves the staged
selection; confirm **Back** also preserves staged changes before
returning.
5. Confirm the footer says model defaults can be configured later in
**Settings → Agents**.

## 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.

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
- Add Devin to the built-in preset harness catalog using the official
native ACP invocation: `devin acp`.
- Link setup guidance to Cognition's official Devin CLI documentation.
- Render a bundled, attributed Devin mark on a white canvas through
Buzz's existing runtime-icon system.
- Keep preset capability metadata in the Rust catalog; no duplicate
TypeScript runtime table or React runtime checks.
- Move the existing preset catalog and its focused tests into a Rust
submodule without changing existing preset behavior, keeping the touched
files within the repository's file-size limit.
### Related issue
Follow-up to the generic BYOH harness work in #2773.
### Scope
This is the small preset/data-entry follow-up described in the #2773
discussion. It uses the generic preset readiness contract and does not
add Devin-specific authentication probing, permission bypasses, model
switching, cloud handoff, or cloud Devin capability claims.
The preset supplies:
- ID: `devin`
- Executable: `devin`
- Arguments: `acp`
- Installation guidance: https://docs.devin.ai/cli
### Testing
Local verification was rerun at the final PR head,
`7bb9aa6e862a47a5062b5b8234fdb5ce2aae6c1d`.
- Focused Rust preset tests: 7 passed
- Desktop JavaScript tests: 3,768 passed
- Desktop lint, formatting, file-size, and text guards: passed
- Full Tauri test suite: 1,851 passed, 14 ignored
- Root Rust unit-test groups: passed
- Web production build: passed
- Mobile format, analyze, and test suites: passed
- Full repository `just ci`: passed
The branch also merges cleanly with the current Block `main`. The
upstream fork-triggered CI workflow is awaiting maintainer approval;
DCO, Semgrep OSS, and zizmor are passing.
The bundled SVG was rendered and visually inspected in both its source
dimensions and a 512px preview. The cross-language preset-logo guard
verifies that the Devin mapping exists and the asset is present on disk.

**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.

## 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.
5. Resize the window and switch themes to verify responsive layout and
adaptive bundled marks.

## Problem
With macOS in dark mode (the default for fresh profiles is to follow the
system scheme), the onboarding "What's an identity key?" help dialog
renders
its title in near-white on the always-white textured card, making it
unreadable. The body paragraphs stay readable because they use the fixed
olive `--buzz-onboarding-backup-ink`; only the `text-foreground` title
(and
the close button's hover color) flip with the theme.
## Cause
The dialog's `DialogContent` carries `buzz-onboarding-neutral-theme` but
is
portaled outside the `buzz-startup-shell` subtree, so in dark mode it
matches
`.dark .buzz-onboarding-neutral-theme:not(.buzz-startup-shell)`
(`components.css`), which flips `--foreground` to `0 0% 98%`. The
textured
powder card (`buzz-card-textured`) has no dark variant — it is baked
light —
so the near-white title disappears against it.
## Fix
One attribute: pin the dialog to the light neutral theme with
`data-system-color-scheme="light"`. This is the established pattern for
always-light onboarding dialogs (`HostedCommunityOnboarding.tsx`, the
`CommunityOnboardingFlow.tsx` avatar dialog), and the pinned-light CSS
rule
already exists and out-specifies the dark-mode flip. No new CSS.
## Testing
- Added a dark-mode regression test to
`tests/e2e/identity-key-help.spec.ts`
(already registered in the Playwright smoke project): emulates
`prefers-color-scheme: dark`, opens the dialog, and asserts the title
resolves to the pinned light-neutral ink `rgb(23, 23, 23)`. Before the
fix
it rendered `rgb(250, 250, 250)`.
- Manual repro: macOS appearance set to Dark → fresh profile → machine
onboarding → click "What's an identity key?".
Before/after screenshots are in the comment below.

## Summary
- backing out of the backup step and clicking the CTA again reuses the
existing key
- the button still said "Create a new identity key", which is misleading
for a security-sensitive action
- when a key is already loaded, label it "Continue with existing
identity key"
Closes#2318
## Test plan
- [ ] first-run: button still says "Create a new identity key"
- [ ] create key → backup → back: button says "Continue with existing
identity key" and shows the same key

> [!NOTE]
> **Part 1 of a multi-PR onboarding rework.** This PR only restores the
hidden harnesses, adjusts the card layout, and gates onboarding
completion on valid config. A follow-up PR (stacked on this branch)
restructures the flow: the harness page becomes a single-choice "pick
your default harness" step, and install/sign-in/provider setup moves to
the following page. Review this one on its own terms — the flow rework
is intentionally not here.
## Summary
- Restore **Goose** and **Buzz Agent** to onboarding harness selection,
reverting the launch-only restriction from #2233
- The restore is the single centralized allowlist
(`ONBOARDING_RUNTIME_ORDER` in `onboardingRuntimeSelection.ts`) that
#2233 deliberately set up for this moment — setup cards, readiness
handoff, and the defaults harness picker all derive from it
- Lay the four harness cards out as a single row at `lg` and above
(`lg:grid-cols-4`); below 1024px (including the app's 800px minimum
window width) the grid is 2×2, and 1-up on narrow viewports
- **Gate onboarding Finish on actual config validity** (review finding):
the defaults page rendered provider/model/credential fields for
provider-required harnesses but Finish only checked that a harness was
selected — a fresh user picking Buzz Agent could persist a default that
fails at first spawn. The Finish gate now consumes `AgentConfigFields`'
existing `onValidityChange` signal. Baked build env and runtime-file
config satisfy the gate, so internal builds and existing Goose users are
never blocked
- Update the unit + E2E specs that pinned the hidden behavior, plus two
new E2E cases pinning the Finish gate (blocked-until-configured, and
baked-env never blocked)
- AGENTS.md rule 7 updated to document the completion gate
## Testing
- `onboardingRuntimeSelection.test.mjs` — 4 passed
- `pnpm typecheck` — clean
- `pnpm exec playwright test tests/e2e/onboarding-agent-defaults.spec.ts
--project=smoke` — 21 passed
- `onboarding-docked-cta-screenshots.spec.ts` — 3 passed
- Biome — clean
## Known cosmetic issue (deferred to PR 2)
At the app's minimum window size (800×500) the 2×2 grid extends past the
visible area and the footer CTA overlaps card space. Next still
hit-tests correctly. PR 2 redesigns this page entirely (cards become a
single-choice chooser with no inline setup), so this is deferred rather
than patched twice.

When Desktop stops or restarts a managed-agent pair, the harness is
SIGKILLed after 1s and `turn_completed` never lands.
`activeAgentTurnsStore` then sees the "all turns silent at once" pattern
and delays badge cleanup for up to 3 min (the pause that protects live
badges during transient relay-stream gaps). This is unnecessary when
Desktop itself issued the kill — there is no relay-gap ambiguity.
## What changed
**`activeAgentTurnsStore.ts`** — new `clearActiveTurnsForAgent(pubkey)`
- Tombstones every live turn for the agent via `recordTerminal` (blocks
in-flight `turn_liveness` frames from resurrecting them via
`resurrectTurn`)
- Removes the agent's entry from `activeTurnsByAgent`
- Preserves `lastProcessed` (watermark) — full-buffer replay after the
clear is a no-op
- Preserves `clockOffsetByAgent` — still valid, harmless
**`managedAgentRuntimeHooks.ts`** — clearing at the successful-stop
boundary
- New `clearActiveTurnsForAgentOnStop(pubkey, relayUrl?)` — relay-scope
gate: only clears when the stopped pair's relay matches the active
community (pair-scoped), or when an active community is configured
(agent-wide ops)
- New `restartManagedAgentPair(pubkey, relayUrl, stop, clear, start)` —
dependency-injected stop → clear → start sequence; the `restart` branch
of `useManagedAgentRuntimeAction`'s `mutationFn` is a single call into
it. The clear fires after a successful stop and before start begins, so
the badge is gone even when start fails, a failed stop clears nothing,
and no clear can run after the new process is spawned (genuinely-new
turns are never wiped)
- `useManagedAgentRuntimeAction.onSuccess` clears for `stop` actions,
before the query-cache update
**`managedAgentControlActions.ts`** — `onStopped` callback on
`respawnManagedAgentWithRules`, invoked after the stop promise resolves
and before start begins
**`welcomeKickoff.ts`** — same `onStopped` boundary on
`restartWelcomeTeammate`
**Call sites covered (all stop/restart UI paths):**
- `useManagedAgentRuntimeAction` — pair-scoped stop (`onSuccess`) and
restart (`restartManagedAgentPair` in `mutationFn`); Members-sidebar +
settings card
- `useMembersSidebarActions.handleRespawnAll` — via `onStopped`
- `useMembersSidebarActions.handleStopAll` — direct local-stop branch
- `useMembersSidebarActions.handleLifecycleAction` — local-stop fallback
branch
- `useAgentLifecycleActions.handleAgentPrimaryAction` — Agents-tab stop
- `useAgentLifecycleActions.handleAgentRestart` — via `onStopped`
- `useManagedAgentActions.handleStop` / `handleBulkStopRunning` — Agents
screen
- `useAutoRestartPolicy` — inline, between stop and start
- `restartWelcomeTeammate` call site — via `onStopped`
Provider agents are excluded at each site: they go through `!shutdown`
(relay message), not a direct harness kill.
## Tests
Twelve behavior tests across three files:
- `activeAgentTurnsStore.test.mjs` (6) — clear removes the agent's turns
and notifies subscribers, other agents untouched; full-buffer replay
after clear is a no-op (watermark preserved); late `turn_liveness` frame
with timestamp ≤ clear time does not resurrect (tombstone); new
`turn_started` after clear is tracked normally; badge gone when stop
succeeds even if start fails; new frame during start-pending does not
resurrect the cleared badge
- `managedAgentControlActions.test.mjs` (3) — `onStopped` fires on
stop-success/start-failure; does not fire on stop-failure; strict stop →
`onStopped` → start ordering
- `managedAgentRuntimeHooks.test.mjs` (3) — pair-restart seam: clear ran
when start fails (rejection propagates); stop failure invokes neither
clear nor start; strict stop → clear → start ordering

## 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.
