Goal commands already had local CLI metadata, but desktop and SDK init consumers only received a name list. Keep the legacy slash_commands string array intact and add explicit metadata so clients can render descriptions and usage hints without breaking older readers.
Constraint: Existing SDK/system init consumers may depend on slash_commands staying string-only.
Rejected: Replace slash_commands with objects | would risk breaking older SDK and desktop consumers.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Directive: Keep slash_commands as the compatibility name list unless all SDK consumers have migrated.

This brings the desktop memory worktree onto local main after main advanced with opener, IM, zoom, and autonomous goal work. The conflict resolution keeps both the selected-chat reference imports and memory event settings entrypoint in MessageList, and keeps both open-targets and memory API routes in the server router.
Constraint: main and feat/desktop-memory-surface diverged across desktop chat and server routing.
Constraint: desktop Vitest runs src-tauri tests under Vitest, so the Tauri config test cannot import bun:test.
Rejected: Fast-forward merge | main carried newer local commits not present on the memory branch.

Memory files are produced by the agent during conversation, so the desktop settings surface should focus on browsing, search, and editing existing Markdown memory rather than offering a manual file factory.
Constraint: Project memory creation belongs to the conversation/runtime flow, not Settings.
Rejected: Keep the add box as a fallback | it implies users should manually seed runtime-owned memory and creates low-value UI clutter.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Do not reintroduce manual memory-file creation in Settings unless the runtime product flow explicitly changes.

Tested: Browser smoke on local Vite/server verified the create placeholder, create action, and duplicate-path error text are absent while file search and four memory files render.
The memory settings page was technically functional but broke down once users had many project folders: paths were hard to scan, there was no project search, the create-file row clipped its own action, and YAML frontmatter dominated the preview instead of the actual memory content. This pass keeps the same storage model and API while redesigning the interaction around searchable project/file lists, compact path labels, an icon-only create action, and a cleaner edit/preview split.
Constraint: Memory remains Markdown files under the existing project memory directory contract.
Rejected: Add a new memory database or indexer | unnecessary for the current local project-list scale and would widen persistence risk.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Keep memory settings optimized for many projects; do not remove project search without replacing it with an equivalent navigation path.

The CLI already emits memory_saved events and stores Markdown memory files, but the desktop app had no usable surface for seeing or editing those writes. This adds a project memory API, a Settings memory editor, chat memory event cards, and routing from /memory or /context into the memory UI.
Constraint: Memory files live under Claude project storage and must remain plain Markdown editable by users.
Rejected: Only expose raw filesystem links | users need an in-app review and edit flow from chat.

Superpowers can trigger plan approval or browser confirm flows inside the desktop shell. Tauri's dialog plugin shims window.confirm through the message command, but the desktop capability only allowed file open/save dialogs, so Windows rejected confirm with an ACL error and left the flow blocked.
Constraint: Tauri plugin-dialog 2.7 routes alert/confirm through the message permission.
Rejected: Grant dialog:default | broader than needed for this bugfix.

The pure white appearance option needed to avoid warm-theme leakage while preserving the existing warm classic brand theme. This adds the white theme mode, keeps local browser startup from reusing stale H5 server URLs in dev, and moves visible legacy warm surfaces onto theme tokens.
Constraint: H5 server auth policy, CORS policy, SDK routes, adapter routes, and IM access paths must not change for a visual theme fix
Rejected: Rename the original light theme to pure white | the original theme is a warm classic palette, not a neutral white workspace
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate

H5 access is a user-facing desktop sharing entrypoint, so it should not be buried inside the broad General settings surface. Move it into its own Settings tab and make the empty QR state point users at the token generation action before a scan link exists.
Constraint: Preserve the existing H5 store API and token lifecycle while changing only the desktop settings surface.
Rejected: Keep H5 access inside General with a larger visual block | still hides a strong product surface in a catch-all page.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Keep H5 access as a first-class settings entry unless the navigation model is redesigned holistically.

Not-tested: Live H5 token generation against an enabled local H5 service; current local desktop state had H5 disabled.
H5 LAN access now uses an explicit desktop confirmation, then shows a QR launch URL that carries both the serverUrl and one-time-visible H5 token. Browser startup consumes that token from the QR URL, verifies it before storing, and requires auth for non-loopback H5 endpoints while preserving local desktop bootstrap behavior.
Constraint: LAN H5 exposes desktop capabilities and must be opt-in with a visible warning.
Constraint: QR launch has to preserve routed public URLs, so the link carries serverUrl as well as h5Token.
Rejected: Store the raw token in Zustand | it would make accidental UI diagnostics or snapshots more likely to leak it
Confidence: high

The H5 token gate still caused chat startup and runtime failures after the desktop startup hotfix, so the default server path now stays open for browser and LAN access. Explicit auth remains available through SERVER_AUTH_REQUIRED=1 or --auth-required for deployments that intentionally need it.
Constraint: Current H5 token state is blocking active users from normal chat usage
Rejected: Keep automatic remote-host auth with broader client-side token handling | still leaves existing upgraded clients vulnerable to stale or missing token state

Packaged desktop builds started the sidecar on loopback only, so phones on the same WiFi could not connect to the H5 URL. The server now binds to LAN interfaces while keeping the desktop control URL on loopback, serves the bundled H5 frontend, and reports a LAN public URL when H5 access is enabled.
Constraint: Packaged Tauri resources place ../dist under Contents/Resources/_up_/dist.
Rejected: Bind the desktop control URL to 0.0.0.0 | desktop clients should keep using loopback for local control.

Integrate the Token usage settings page on top of the newer local main branch, preserving the existing H5 access router surface while adding the activity stats API route.
Constraint: Local main already contained H5 access router changes after the Token usage worktree base.
Rejected: Prefer either router branch during conflict resolution | both API surfaces are independent and must remain registered.
Confidence: high

Expose local Claude Code CLI transcript usage in Settings so users can inspect recent token consumption and daily activity without leaving the desktop app.
The page uses server-side transcript aggregation for session, message, tool, model-token, and subagent token data. Daily token buckets use assistant message timestamps, and daily session counts use active parent sessions for the same date bucket so resumed sessions and cross-midnight work do not produce token-only days. Cache accounting is bumped to v5 to force recomputation under the corrected daily semantics.
Constraint: Usage data must come from local Claude Code CLI transcripts rather than mock/demo data.
Constraint: Desktop navigation keeps Token usage directly above Diagnostics.
Rejected: Bucket all token usage by session start date | hides resumed-session and cross-midnight consumption from the actual day it was spent.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Directive: Keep daily token and daily session counts on the same date-bucketing semantics.

H5 browser use needs to keep local desktop WebUI testing open while giving remote phones a usable chat-first surface. This change scopes browser auth by origin and target host, hides non-chat desktop chrome on H5 mobile, compacts the empty-session composer, and unifies mobile selectors behind a full-width bottom sheet with an explicit close action.
Constraint: Local browser development may bypass H5 auth only for loopback or private LAN server hosts; public or remote hosts still require an H5 token.
Constraint: Mobile H5 scope is chat-first; settings and scheduled-task surfaces stay hidden instead of fully redesigned.
Rejected: Reuse desktop popovers on mobile | hover/anchored dropdown behavior leaves key actions hard to dismiss and cramped on narrow screens.
Rejected: Let any localhost origin bypass remote auth | it would let arbitrary local pages access public H5 servers without a token.
Confidence: medium

Limit the legacy fallback to missing H5 endpoints, preserve last known H5 settings on real load failures, and move the generated token lifetime into the General settings component so the raw token clears after copy or timeout instead of living in global state.
Constraint: Task 3 remains limited to desktop settings store, UI, and tests
Rejected: Treat every H5 load failure as disabled defaults | hides real outages and overwrites useful last-known state
Rejected: Keep raw tokens in Zustand until manually dismissed | re-exposes secrets after reopening Settings

Online upgrades can strand users on stale desktop UI state or malformed local persistence. This adds a deny-by-default Doctor path that resets only regenerable desktop UI state, reports protected local files with redacted metadata, and keeps protected repair as a dry-run no-op until a reviewed backup-first flow exists.
Constraint: Chat transcripts, model/provider config, Skills, MCP, IM bindings, adapter sessions, OAuth tokens, plugins, and team/session records are user-owned protected state.
Rejected: Automatically rewrite malformed protected JSON | unsafe without schema-specific migrations and backups.
Rejected: Continue relying only on startup migrations | users need an explicit recovery action after a white screen.

Contributors and coding agents need one local command that both reports and enforces the quality contract. This change turns the PR gate into the shared verification entrypoint, adds path-selected local lanes, tightens coverage accounting around changed lines, and documents the repair loop in contributor and agent-facing guidance.
Constraint: Ordinary PR verification must stay non-live and runnable without provider credentials
Constraint: Coverage policy updates in this commit require maintainer approval before push/merge
Rejected: Keep quality guidance only in docs | agents need executable scripts and AGENTS.md instructions to follow the loop consistently

Desktop users already receive native notifications for permission prompts, but long-running turns can finish with only a final Markdown reply while the app is out of focus. The completion path now treats a non-empty assistant reply as a notifiable terminal event and reuses the existing desktop notification settings, dedupe, and cooldown behavior.
Constraint: Notification permission must still be controlled by the existing desktopNotificationsEnabled setting and native OS authorization.
Rejected: Send from status idle events | idle is also used by prewarm, clear, stop, and other non-reply transitions.
Rejected: Notify on every message_complete | empty completions and post-stop tail completions would create noisy false positives.

Tested: bun run test -- src/stores/chatStore.test.ts
Tested: bun run check:desktop
Not-tested: Manual macOS notification center click-through behavior
Desktop notifications were enabled by default and depended on the Tauri notification plugin for both permission state and delivery. On macOS the plugin reports desktop permission as granted and can hide foreground delivery failures, so authorization prompts could appear in the app without a real system notification.
This moves macOS permission and delivery through a native UserNotifications bridge, keeps notifications opt-in by default, and sends a test notification after successful authorization.
Constraint: Tauri notification plugin desktop permission state is always granted.
Constraint: macOS foreground delivery needs explicit native presentation handling.
Rejected: Keep using the plugin with retries | it still cannot report real macOS permission or delivery failures.
Confidence: high

Desktop context inspection could send get_context_usage while a prewarmed CLI process existed but before the SDK socket was connected. That first control request sat in the pending outbound queue and could time out, leaving the composer spinner or a misleading empty-state context display. The server now waits for the SDK socket before sending control requests, and the UI renders the actual initial context snapshot instead of masking empty active-session data.
Constraint: CLI /context and desktop get_context_usage must stay on the shared collectContextData/analyzeContextUsage path
Rejected: Hide zero-token active snapshots in the component | that masks backend timing bugs and prevents showing real initial system/tool context
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Do not queue control requests before the SDK socket is connected; let user messages keep the pending outbound behavior

A newly opened desktop session can return a live context snapshot before any
prompt content has been counted. When that snapshot is all zeroes, rendering it
as 0% makes the first real context update look like an unexplained jump. The
composer now keeps that empty live snapshot in the pending state while still
using its model metadata.
Constraint: Live context snapshots can be initialized before any user-visible context exists
Rejected: Render 0% for zero-token live snapshots | it repeats the misleading empty-session state

Tested: cd desktop && bun run test -- pages.test.tsx

The desktop composer now treats draft and not-yet-running sessions as pending
until a real CLI context snapshot exists. Context inspection has a lightweight
context-only path so the composer and /context panel do not wait on unrelated
usage or MCP status work, and desktop boot no longer blocks the first shell
render on tab restoration.
Constraint: Empty composer state has no live CLI context to inspect until a session starts
Rejected: Display 0% before live context exists | it implied one user message consumed the fixed prompt/tool baseline

Diagnostics exports previously preserved only compact summaries, which made user-uploaded issue bundles hard to debug. This records richer sanitized details from server, CLI, SDK, browser, React, and desktop API failure paths while keeping request bodies and secrets out of client-side reports.
Constraint: Diagnostic bundles must be useful for GitHub issues without including chat contents, file contents, full environments, or API keys.
Rejected: Only expand the Settings UI summary | the exported bundle would still miss hidden runtime failures.

Provider model context windows now feed the composer-level context indicator, so users can see current usage without opening slash panels. The indicator refreshes when the session runtime model changes, keeps a stable loading placeholder, and marks estimate fallback data during reconnect or compaction windows.
Constraint: The desktop UI must use the real session inspection API and session-scoped runtime selection instead of mocked or static context values.
Rejected: Keep context details only in /context or /status | the user explicitly wanted an always-visible composer indicator.
Rejected: Reuse stale context after model switches | different provider windows make identical percentages misleading.

Add native system notifications as a desktop-wide attention channel for permission prompts and scheduled task completion. The implementation keeps notification presentation owned by the OS, adds a user-facing enable switch with permission handling, and lets scheduled tasks choose desktop notifications without routing that channel through IM adapters.
Constraint: Notifications must use OS-native APIs without custom sound playback.
Constraint: Desktop channel is local-only and must not be sent through IM adapter delivery.
Rejected: Browser Notification API | not reliable inside the packaged Tauri desktop runtime.
Rejected: Treat desktop as an IM channel | would leak a local-only channel into server-side adapter sending.

Desktop failures were previously hard to debug from issue reports because server-side and CLI startup details were only partially visible in the UI. This adds a dedicated cc-haha diagnostics store with sanitized structured events, runtime error summaries, a Settings diagnostics view, and an exportable bundle that users can attach to reports.
Constraint: Diagnostic exports must not include chat content, file contents, full environment variables, API keys, bearer tokens, cookies, or OAuth tokens.
Rejected: Export raw server logs | easier to debug but too likely to leak secrets and private workspace data.
Rejected: Keep diagnostics only in transient UI errors | still leaves maintainers unable to diagnose later GitHub issues.

The session inspector reused a one-off light palette, so /status, /cost,

This moves the inspector and MCP switch control onto theme-scoped tokens

Native Anthropic web search is only reliable for Claude-family model names,
while many configured providers either do not implement the server tool schema
or reject it through proxy layers. This routes WebSearch through a single
resolver, adds Tavily and Brave fallbacks, and exposes provider key setup in
the desktop settings page.
Constraint: Third-party Anthropic-compatible endpoints may reject web_search_20250305 even when the model name is Claude-like
Constraint: Non-Claude models still need a usable WebSearch path when users configure an external search provider
Rejected: Gate native WebSearch by base URL | third-party Claude proxies can support it and official-looking URLs are not the real capability boundary
Rejected: Always expose Anthropic native WebSearch | unsupported providers loop on schema or tool errors

Desktop users can now disable thinking for new sessions, and Anthropic-compatible providers that opt in receive explicit disabled-thinking requests across main turns, side queries, and AI title generation.

resets cached slash commands, compact boundaries preserve CLI-provided text,
and the help panel now discloses when the More section is truncated.
Constraint: Preserve the desktop /clear fast path without accepting accidental arguments
Rejected: Let /clear arguments fall through to the CLI | the CLI command still clears context and would keep the footgun
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Keep desktop-local slash command guards in sync with CLI command argument semantics
Tested: cd desktop && bun run test src/stores/chatStore.test.ts src/__tests__/pages.test.tsx --run -t "clears local desktop chat state|ActiveSession routes /help"
Tested: bun test src/server/__tests__/conversations.test.ts
Tested: cd desktop && bun run lint
Tested: git diff --check
Not-tested: Full pages.test.tsx because unrelated locale-sensitive assertions are already present in that file
Desktop had no reliable handling for common local slash commands, so
commands like /clear, /help, /context, /cost, and /compact either looked
unresponsive or lost their CLI-specific side effects. This routes desktop
commands by behavior: local panels stay local, stateful clear resets the
session transcript, and CLI-local outputs are rendered in chat.
Constraint: Preserve existing CLI semantics for prompt, local, local-jsx, and compact slash commands
Rejected: Send every slash command through the normal chat path | local commands need desktop UI or session state side effects
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Directive: Keep hidden aliases such as /plugins out of the visible command list unless they become canonical CLI commands
Tested: cd desktop && bun run test src/components/chat/composerUtils.test.ts src/stores/chatStore.test.ts --run
Tested: cd desktop && bun run test src/__tests__/pages.test.tsx --run -t "ActiveSession routes /plugin|ActiveSession routes /help|EmptySession slash picker includes dynamic skills"
Tested: bun test src/server/__tests__/conversations.test.ts
Tested: cd desktop && bun run lint
Tested: agent-browser E2E for /help, /plugin, /plugins, /cost, /clear, /context, /compact, /mcp, and normal text input
Not-tested: Root tsc project because it currently includes generated Tauri target assets and extracted native files
Desktop sessions could show MCP configuration in the UI while the CLI SDK child process still started cold on the first user message. Start eligible desktop chat sessions as soon as their websocket is connected, keep init metadata cached but muted, and wait briefly for MCP startup in SDK print mode so turn one sees the tools.
Constraint: Desktop wraps the existing CLI SDK bridge rather than owning MCP startup directly.
Rejected: Prewarm every restored tab | synthetic tabs such as settings would start unnecessary CLI subprocesses.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Directive: Do not remove the synthetic-tab guard without validating restored settings and scheduled-task tabs in the browser.
Tested: bun test src/server/__tests__/conversations.test.ts src/server/__tests__/conversation-service.test.ts src/server/__tests__/mcp.test.ts
Tested: cd desktop && bun run test -- chatStore.test.ts mcpSettings.test.tsx
Tested: cd desktop && bun run lint
Tested: cd desktop && bun run build
Tested: agent-browser E2E new session prewarm plus first message reuse with mock CLI
Not-tested: Full desktop Vitest suite still has pre-existing English-vs-Chinese copy assertion failures.
Plugin actions refresh the selected plugin detail after mutating enabled state. The detail component can enter its loading branch while a plugin is still selected, so every hook must run before that early return.
Constraint: React hook order must stay identical across the detail and loading render paths.
Rejected: Clear the selected plugin before reload | would hide the current context and add UI churn during short refreshes.
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Keep PluginDetail hooks before loading and empty-state returns when adding detail-derived memoization.
Tested: cd desktop && bun run test src/__tests__/pluginsSettings.test.tsx
Tested: cd desktop && bun run lint
Tested: cd desktop && bun run build
Not-tested: Full desktop Vitest suite has pre-existing locale assertion failures unrelated to this plugin fix.
The Settings terminal added a full xterm plus Tauri PTY stack for a job
that is better handled by dedicated install and configuration flows. This
change removes the Settings tab, frontend terminal wiring, Tauri terminal
commands, and the terminal-only dependencies so the desktop settings
surface stays narrower and less fragile.
Constraint: The worktree already contains unrelated desktop icon and UI changes, so this commit stages only the terminal-removal slice
Rejected: Keep a hidden or runtime-only terminal stub | it would still preserve the heavy cross-layer maintenance surface
Rejected: Remove only the Settings tab and leave the Tauri PTY backend | that would leave dead code and unused dependencies behind
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: If future install workflows need more power, prefer Settings-native actions and runtime refresh over reintroducing a general shell tab
Tested: bun x vitest run src/__tests__/generalSettings.test.tsx src/__tests__/skillsSettings.test.tsx src/__tests__/pluginsSettings.test.tsx src/__tests__/agentsSettings.test.tsx src/__tests__/mcpSettings.test.tsx src/components/settings/InstallCenter.test.tsx; bun run lint; bun run build; cargo check --manifest-path desktop/src-tauri/Cargo.toml
Not-tested: Manual packaged desktop app click-through after removing the Settings terminal tab
Settings needed a real shell for plugin, MCP, and skill setup without relying on
a globally installed Claude CLI. Add an xterm.js terminal backed by portable-pty,
wire it into the Tauri desktop runtime, and move shell restart handoff to the
new session before old PTY teardown so the UI is less likely to stall behind
child shutdown.
Constraint: The desktop app must inject the bundled CLI into the shell environment instead of requiring a separate global install
Constraint: Restart teardown cannot block the frontend-facing Tauri command path
Rejected: Keep terminal setup inside installer chat only | that flow cannot replace an interactive shell
Rejected: Wait for old PTY shutdown before adopting the new session | it keeps restart vulnerable to hung child teardown
Confidence: medium
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Preserve new-session handoff before old-session cleanup when changing terminal lifecycle or restart logic
Tested: bunx vitest run src/__tests__/terminalPanel.test.tsx src/components/settings/TerminalPanel.restart.test.tsx; bun run lint; cargo check
Not-tested: Full packaged-app command echo and repeated manual restart behavior still need additional runtime verification
The desktop settings and sidebar still had deletion flows that either used browser-native confirms or deleted immediately. This change consolidates destructive confirmations behind a shared dialog component, applies it to provider deletion, plugin uninstall, adapter unbind, and sidebar session deletion, and adds regression coverage so delete actions require an explicit second confirmation before mutating state.
Constraint: Other in-progress desktop work in the tree had to stay out of this commit
Constraint: Existing MCP and task confirmations needed to keep their current behavior
Rejected: Leave confirmations embedded per-page with browser dialogs | inconsistent UX and easy to regress
Rejected: Add confirmations only to provider deletion | leaves other destructive desktop flows unsafe
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Any new desktop delete, uninstall, or unbind action should use the shared ConfirmDialog instead of browser-native dialogs or one-click deletion
Tested: bun run test src/components/layout/Sidebar.test.tsx src/__tests__/generalSettings.test.tsx; bun run lint
Not-tested: Manual desktop click-through of every destructive action after this refactor
The reconnect action could succeed, but the detail and edit views gave almost no page-level feedback beyond the button spinner. Mirror the reconnect lifecycle into the visible status surfaces so users can tell immediately that the request is in flight and whether it settled.
Constraint: Reconnect feedback must be visible without waiting for the list row to refresh
Rejected: Rely on toast only | too late and too easy to miss while staying on the detail page
Rejected: Add a separate transient banner | duplicates the existing status surfaces instead of updating them
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep reconnect state reflected in the page-level status badge and status field, not just the action button
Tested: cd desktop && bun run test -- mcpSettings.test.tsx; cd desktop && bun x tsc --noEmit --ignoreDeprecations 5.0
Not-tested: Manual desktop click-through against a live MCP reconnect
Desktop MCP settings was synchronously probing every configured server from /api/mcp, which made the list page scale with connection latency and surface brittle behavior as installs accumulated more MCPs. Return lightweight snapshot rows from the list API, keep explicit status checks separate, and let the desktop UI refresh status in a constrained background lane while preserving project-aware server identity.
Constraint: MCP list must stay responsive even with many configured servers
Rejected: Probe all servers from the list view without limits | still fans out with server count and can overload slow installs
Rejected: Keep servers permanently unchecked until detail view | misses the desired loading feedback when the MCP page opens
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep /api/mcp as a configuration snapshot endpoint; do not reintroduce per-row live connect work on list load
Tested: bun test src/server/__tests__/mcp.test.ts; cd desktop && bun run test -- mcpSettings.test.tsx; cd desktop && bun x tsc --noEmit --ignoreDeprecations 5.0
Not-tested: Real desktop interaction against an environment with dozens of live MCP servers
Desktop plugin details now route into the shared Skills, Agents, and MCP management surfaces instead of maintaining separate read-only drilldowns. This also extends the desktop/server skill aggregation so plugin-provided skills appear in the shared list, groups MCP entries by source, and preserves detail-view back navigation based on where the user entered the page.
The implementation keeps plugin detail as the high-level capability hub while pushing real inspection into the existing management pages. Disabled plugins no longer expose false navigation paths into shared views, and the agent-browser regression script was expanded to exercise the new end-to-end flows.
Constraint: Shared Agents data only includes enabled plugin agents, so disabled plugins cannot deep-link into agent detail
Rejected: Keep duplicating full Skills/Agents/MCP detail inside Plugin detail | creates divergent UI flows and stale data paths
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: If a detail view can be opened from multiple entry points, keep the return target in store state rather than hardcoding a single back destination
Tested: desktop vitest for plugins/skills/agents/mcp; desktop tsc --noEmit; desktop vite build; server skills API test; agent-browser web regression on plugin->skill/mcp and plugin->agent back navigation
Not-tested: packaged desktop app regression after rebuilding the Tauri bundle
