Alan Wizemann a193003842 fix(chat): paginate session-load + race-guard against session switch
Two related bugs from remote-context perf captures.

**Bug 1 — 30s timeout fetching the 157-message session.** The
initial page size was 200 messages. For a session including
`reasoning_content` from a thinking model, that produces enough
JSON over `sqlite3 -json | ssh` to time out at exactly 30s on a
420ms-RTT remote, returning 0 rows. Bumping queryTimeout further
just trades latency for stalls.

Drop `HistoryPageSize.initial` from 200 → 50. Sized to fit
comfortably inside the 30s queryTimeout; the existing "Load
earlier" affordance pages back through older messages on demand.

**Bug 2 — session-switch race silently swaps transcripts.** When
the user picks a small chat while a slow fetch for a different
chat is still in flight, the slow fetch finishes second and its
`messages = …` assignment overwrites the small chat's transcript.
User sees the small chat "jump back" to the big one. ScarfMon
trace: parallel `mac.fetchMessages` events at t=641870 (small,
425ms, 2 rows) and t=643316 (big, 30,028ms timeout) — last
write won.

Add a `loadingForSession` capture and three guards: after the
DB refresh, after the primary fetch, after the ACP-fork fetch.
Each compares `self.sessionId` against the captured id; on
mismatch fire `mac.hydrateMessages.dropped` and return without
assigning. Race is silent in normal usage but visible in traces.

Alan Wizemann 93a64e3e82 fix(nous-picker): kill 120s beach-ball — dedupe readCache + 5s timeout
Two stacking bugs in the Nous-overlay branch of the model picker
caused a 120-second beach-ball on remote contexts.

**Bug 1 — duplicated readCache.** ModelPickerSheet.refreshNousModels
called `service.readCache()` directly (for instant first-paint),
then called `service.loadModels(forceRefresh: false)` which calls
`readCache()` AGAIN as its first step. Two SSH round-trips per
picker open. Drop the inline call; loadModels is already cache-first
on its happy path (returns `.cache(...)` when fresh). One read
per open.

**Bug 2 — 60s readFile timeout for a hint.** `readCache()` goes
through SSHTransport.readFile which has a 60s default timeout. On
a remote with a corrupted or oversized cache file, `cat` never
returns and we wait the full 60s — twice, due to bug 1, for a
total 120s picker stall. ScarfMon perf capture (commit 00a1bbd's
diagnostic split) localized this precisely:

  nous.readCache.fileExists  =   251 ms  ✓
  nous.readCache.readFile    = 60,011 ms   (60s timeout)

Cache is an optimization, not a requirement. Added
`readCacheWithTimeout(seconds: 5)` that races readCache against
a 5-second sleep via withTaskGroup. On timeout returns nil; caller
treats that as no-cache and falls through to the network fetch
(which succeeded in 2s in the offending capture, returning 402
models). The runaway `cat` keeps running on its own 60s transport
timeout but no longer blocks the picker.

New ScarfMon event: `nous.readCache.timeoutFired` surfaces hits
in traces so we can tell whether the timeout is being exercised
in the wild.

The underlying `cat` hang on the cache file is still unexplained;
the file size (~500KB) shouldn't take 60s on a 420ms-RTT SSH link.
For now: deleting the cache file (`rm ~/.hermes/scarf/nous_models_cache.json`
on the remote) is the workaround. The next picker open will rebuild it.

Alan Wizemann 00a1bbd109 feat(scarfmon): split nous.readCache into fileExists/readFile/decode/bytes
Last perf capture showed nous.readCache as a single 60-second
interval — but the function does three things (transport.fileExists,
transport.readFile, JSONDecoder). Splitting the measure points so
the next capture localizes which step actually owns the wall-clock.

Adds:
- nous.readCache.fileExists (interval) — SSH `test -e` round-trip
- nous.readCache.readFile (interval) — SSH `cat` round-trip
- nous.readCache.bytes (event) — payload size of the cache file
- nous.readCache.decode (interval) — JSON parsing cost

If the next 60-second beach ball localizes to readFile, we know
the cache file is somehow huge or the SSH read is hung; if it's
fileExists, the path resolution is the issue; if decode, we have
malformed JSON. All three wear the same outer wrapper so the
existing nous.readCache total stays for trend comparison.

Alan Wizemann 20cc3a2985 perf(sessions): fold sessions+previews into one batched SSH round-trip
Audit Finding 1 — ChatViewModel.loadRecentSessions and
SessionsViewModel.load each fired two sequential `await
dataService.fetch*` calls (sessions + previews), paying the 420 ms
SSH RTT twice on every reload. Visible in ScarfMon traces as
back-to-back `ssh.run` intervals, totaling ~840 ms minimum
overhead per sidebar refresh.

Adds HermesDataService.sessionListSnapshot(limit:) — same shape
as the existing dashboardSnapshot, folds both queries into a
single backend.queryBatch() call. Both call sites switched.

Halves the SSH round-trips for every sidebar load. With Finding 5's
coalescing, redundant parallel reloads also become free. Together,
the 9× redundant queries-per-minute observed in baseline captures
should drop substantially.

Alan Wizemann 432d5b0b52 fix(remote-sqlite): bump query timeout 15s→30s + add in-flight coalescing
Two issues from the perf capture:

1. fetchMessages on a 157-message session timed out at exactly 15.06 s
   (`mac.fetchMessages` interval = 15,062,646,042 ns), then silently
   returned 0 rows. The chat appeared empty but the session had data;
   the timeout was firing before sqlite3 -json could ship the ~50KB
   payload over a 420 ms-RTT SSH link. Bumped queryTimeout to 30 s.
   The streamScript transport-level timeout still fires on truly
   wedged hosts.

2. mac.loadRecentSessions fired twice in parallel at t=960450 +
   t=960584, finishing 134 ms apart — two independent watcher ticks
   each spawning a full 3-query SSH load for the same data. Added
   in-flight request coalescing keyed on the inlined SQL text:
   when a query with the exact same SQL is already pending, second
   caller awaits the first task instead of spawning a new
   subprocess. New ScarfMon event `sqlite.query.coalesced`
   surfaces hits in traces.

Coalescing is surgical — applies to single `query` calls only,
not `queryBatch` (different timeout scaling, concurrent-same-batch
is rare). Avoids serializing independent work.

Alan Wizemann 12e152bfea perf(ssh): replace Thread.sleep spin with kernel-wait for runLocal timeout
Audit Finding 3 — every SSH operation funnels through SSHTransport.runLocal,
which used a 100ms Thread.sleep loop while waiting for the timeout. Each
call held one cooperative-pool thread for the full timeout duration with
spin-poll overhead, AND had 100ms granularity on the deadline.

Replace with proc.terminationHandler + DispatchGroup wait — kernel-wakeup
when the process exits (or the deadline fires), no spin. Same one-thread
blocking footprint, but eliminates the per-operation spin work that
inflated query latency 60-70% under concurrent SSH load (visible in
ScarfMon as 7-second mac.loadRecentSessions outliers when sidebar reload +
chat finalize + watcher poll all fired together).

Minimum-touch fix; full async migration of runLocal documented for
follow-up. The bigger refactor would let cooperative-pool threads
park on a true async suspension during the wait, but requires
propagating async through every ServerTransport caller.

Alan Wizemann 099d73dde8 feat(scarfmon): instrument Nous model catalog + subscription path (beach-ball investigation)
User reported a remote-context beach-ball when opening the model
picker with Nous as the active provider. Existing measure points
showed loadProviders + loadModels at ~315ms each (fast). The
beach-ball must be in the uninstrumented Nous-overlay branch the
picker fires when nous is selected.

Adds four measure points covering every blocking call in that path:

- nous.subscription.loadState (interval, .diskIO) — auth.json read
  via NousSubscriptionService.loadState. Already known to do an SSH
  read; now precisely measurable.
- nous.readCache (interval, .diskIO) — nous_models cache read,
  TWO sequential SSH ops (fileExists + readFile).
- nous.bearerToken (interval, .diskIO) — auth.json read AGAIN inside
  fetchModels. **This is a duplicate read** — loadState already
  parsed the same file moments earlier. Comment-flagged as a
  caching candidate.
- nous.fetchModels (interval, .transport) + .bytes (event) — HTTP
  GET against the Nous /v1/models endpoint with the body byte count
  attached. The most likely beach-ball culprit if the endpoint is
  slow or hung.

After the next capture we'll know which of the four owns the user's
wall-clock; if `nous.bearerToken` shows up alongside
`nous.subscription.loadState` with similar duration, the duplicate
read is also a real cost worth fixing.

Alan Wizemann 4efd84c119 feat(projects,cron): new project wizard + keychain env mirror + #75 fix
Three coordinated additions to the project surface:

1. New Project from Scratch wizard. Toolbar entry that scaffolds a
   Scarf-standard project skeleton (`<project>/.scarf/dashboard.json`
   placeholder + `AGENTS.md` marker block), registers it, opens an ACP
   chat session in the project's cwd, and auto-sends a kickoff prompt
   that activates the bundled `scarf-template-author` skill. The skill
   drives the substantive setup conversationally — widgets, optional
   config schema, optional cron, AGENTS.md content.

2. Keychain secrets mirror into ~/.hermes/.env. Cron jobs can now
   reference Keychain-backed config values via env vars named
   `SCARF_<UPPER_SLUG>_<UPPER_FIELDKEY>`. Hermes reloads .env per cron
   tick (cron/scheduler.py:897-903), so credential rotation is free.
   Source of truth stays in the Keychain — config.json keeps
   `keychain://` URIs unchanged. Mirror runs at install, post-install
   Configuration save, uninstall, "Remove from List", and on app
   launch (reconcileAll). Mode 0600 on `.env` enforced by
   LocalTransport's existing `.env` heuristic.

3. Configuration form layout recursion fix (issue #75). Per-stage
   frame sizes on `ConfigEditorSheet` triggered
   `_NSDetectedLayoutRecursion` for projects with manifest.json.
   Stabilized the outer frame at the editing stage's intrinsic size so
   transitions only swap content, never resize the container.

New services:
- `ProjectScaffolder` (Mac) — bare-shell project + AGENTS.md marker
- `SkillBootstrapService` (Mac) — copies bundled skills into ~/.hermes/skills/
- `KeychainEnvMirror` (Mac) — splice/unmirror/reconcileAll over ~/.hermes/.env
- `SecretsEnvBlock` (ScarfCore) — pure marker-block helpers

Bundled skill `scarf-template-author` v1.1.0 ships in
`Resources/BuiltinSkills.bundle/`; SkillBootstrapService copies it
into `~/.hermes/skills/scarf-template-author/` on launch (idempotent +
version-gated). The skill grew a "Using secrets in cron prompts"
section documenting the env-var convention.

Migration: launch reconciler auto-populates .env on first v2.8 launch.
Users with cron prompts authored against the old (broken) pattern need
to update them to use $SCARF_… references — see release notes.

Tests:
- SecretsEnvBlockTests: 24/24 (`swift test --filter SecretsEnvBlock`)
- KeychainEnvMirrorTests: 11/11 (`xcodebuild ... -only-testing:scarfTests/KeychainEnvMirror`)

The idempotent-mirror test caught a real bug: applyBlock's replace
path consumed the trailing newline from blockRange but didn't restore
it, breaking the no-op-when-unchanged contract that the launch
reconciler relies on. Fixed.

v2.8 RELEASE_NOTES.md committed but no release cut yet.

Alan Wizemann bd9bacb8b3 feat(scarfmon): B2 + B3 + iOS dashboard — file watcher, message hydration, dashboard load
Three areas instrumented in this batch. Both targets build clean.

B2 — Mac HermesFileWatcher (FSEvents + remote SSH poll)
- mac.fileWatcher.localFire (event) — every FSEvents change on a
  watched core or project path. High counts during streaming chats
  are normal (state.db-wal ticks per persisted message); high counts
  during idle suggest a runaway watcher install.
- mac.fileWatcher.remoteRestart (event, bytes=path-count) — fires
  once per SSH poller restart, with the union path count attached.
  Frequent restarts mean the project-list update path is churning.
- mac.fileWatcher.remoteDelta (event) — fires per non-empty change
  detected on the SSH poll. Pair with `ssh.streamScript` cadence to
  see actual poll latency.

B3 — Chat session boot + message hydration
- mac.fetchMessages (interval) + .rows (event) — bounded SQL
  fetch from HermesDataService. Catches slow paginated scrolls
  back through long sessions.
- mac.refreshSessionFromDB (interval) — RichChatViewModel's
  post-promptComplete refresh that picks up cost/token data.
- mac.hydrateMessages (interval) + .rows (event) — full session-boot
  hydration in RichChatViewModel.loadSessionHistory. Was the suspected
  trigger of the 22-bubble session-start storms in the Phase 3a
  baseline; now precisely measurable.

iOS Dashboard (resolves the original "out of sync" mystery)
- ios.loadDashboard (interval) — wraps the four dataService.fetch*
  Citadel SFTP round-trips in IOSDashboardViewModel.load().
- ios.allSessions.count (event) — sidebar list size after each
  load, correlates load latency with list growth.
- ios.dashboardRefresh.trigger (event) — fires only on
  pull-to-refresh, separates that entry path from initial appear.

**Architectural finding:** the original v2.6.0 user feedback
("chat out of sync iOS↔Mac on fast LAN") is now firmly attributable
to this — iOS does NOT subscribe to a file watcher. The dashboard
refresh path is appear-time + pull-to-refresh only.
`CitadelServerTransport.watchPaths()` is effectively dead code on
iOS today; nobody calls it. Earlier A1 instrumentation (commit
9df7142) put measure points on it, which is why captures showed
zero `ios.fileWatcher.tick` events. Future work: either add a
foregrounded poll loop to iOS, or thread the file watcher into
the dashboard subscription. Documented in the ScarfMon roadmap
memory.

Alan Wizemann 96af545e66 feat(scarfmon): Tier A2/A3/B1/B4 — sessions, model catalog, dashboard widgets, image encoder
Four parallel instrumentation drops orchestrated by the perf roadmap.
All adds; no logic changes; both targets build clean.

A2 — Mac sessions list reload
- mac.scheduleSessionsRefresh (event) — every file-watcher entry into
  the debounced reload helper. Pair with mac.loadRecentSessions count
  to see how many ticks coalesce per actual reload.
- mac.loadRecentSessions (interval) — full wall-clock from DB open
  through observable assignment.
- mac.recentSessions.count (event) — sidebar list size, correlates
  list growth with reload latency.

A3 — ModelCatalogService loads
- modelCatalog.loadProviders (interval) + .providers.count (event).
- modelCatalog.loadModels (interval) + .models.count (event).
- modelCatalog.validateModel (interval) — covers loadCatalog ->
  transport.readFile, hits disk on every call.
Sync wrap (not measureAsync): the inner Task.detached body is
synchronous; the detached hop is the async boundary.

B1 — Dashboard render
- mac.dashboard.body (event) — ProjectsView body re-eval count.
- dashboard.loadRegistry (interval) — projects.json read + decode.
- widget.markdown_file.load / widget.log_tail.load /
  widget.image.load / widget.cron_status.load (intervals) —
  one per v2.7 file-reading widget. cron_status batches its two
  HermesFileService calls into one tuple-returning measure block
  so the existing two-call shape stays intact.

B4 — Image encoder
- imageEncoder.input.bytes (event) — raw input size.
- imageEncoder.downsample (interval) — full decode/resize/JPEG
  encode round trip across all three platform branches (AppKit,
  UIKit, Linux passthrough).
- imageEncoder.bytes (event) — final encoded JPEG size, lets us
  spot blowup cases.
Sync wrap: encode is nonisolated sync; using measureAsync would
require turning the function async, which is a logic change.

Alan Wizemann 9df7142f49 feat(scarfmon): A1 — instrument iOS file-watcher polling cadence
Adds three measure points to CitadelServerTransport.watchPaths:

- ios.fileWatcher.tick (interval) — full poll cycle latency including
  the SSH stat round-trips. > 1500ms here is what 'out of sync' feels
  like — the channel is congested or the host is slow.
- ios.fileWatcher.delta (event) — fires only when the signature
  actually changed. Low delta/tick ratio means we can safely drop
  the 3-second cadence; high ratio means we'd just burn bandwidth.
- ios.fileWatcher.paths (event, bytes=count) — number of paths watched
  per cycle. Explains slow ticks as the project list grows.

Surgical addition; existing 3-second cadence + signature-diff logic
unchanged. With Full mode on, a few minutes of usage on LAN will
tell us empirically whether the cadence can drop to 1s — the
original v2.6.0 user feedback complained 'chat is out of sync'
between iOS and Mac on a fast LAN.

Alan Wizemann 9ff9a018e7 feat(scarfmon,chat): Phase 3b — dampen finalize bursts + Thinking… status + wider loadConfig stack
Three targeted fixes from the Phase 3a baseline.

Bubble-burst dampening (Phase 3b-1):
- RichChatViewModel.finalizeStreamingMessage wraps both the
  streaming-id rewrite and the empty-finalize remove() in a
  no-animation Transaction. The id flip from 0 → permanent value
  was the load-bearing trigger of the 5–8 RichMessageBubble.body
  fires we were seeing 1–2 ms after every `finalizeStreamingMessage`
  interval; SwiftUI ran an animated diff against neighbors and
  re-evaluated their bodies. The new message is content-equal to
  the streaming one — there is no animation worth running.

Thinking… status promotion (Phase 3b-2):
- RichChatViewModel exposes `isStreamingThoughtsOnly` — true while
  a turn is in flight, has emitted thought-stream bytes, and has not
  yet produced any visible assistant text. The Phase 3a baseline
  showed this is where most of the user-perceived "feels slow" lives:
  reasoning models commonly take 3–8 s before producing visible
  output, and Scarf surfaced no specific signal during that window.
- Mac ChatView.displayedStatus promotes the toolbar pill to
  "Thinking…" when the flag is true.
- iOS connectionBanner gains a transient "Thinking…" strip with
  spinner, same trigger condition.

Phase 3a fix-up:
- HermesFileService.loadConfig stack-trace logging widened from
  one frame to a 10-frame window prefixed with "#N", so the actual
  caller is visible past inlined ScarfMon wrappers (the prior log
  surfaced ScarfMon.measure itself, not the loadConfig caller).

Alan Wizemann 0a4f8de492 feat(scarfmon): Phase 3a — diagnostic measure points for chat-render bursts
Adds four targeted measure points so the next baseline capture can
attribute the bubble-re-render storm and the slow sendPrompt to a
specific cause:

- mac.RichChatMessageList.body — distinguishes "the parent is
  re-issuing the ForEach" from "the bubbles are re-rendering on their
  own". If list.body fires once and bubble.body fires N times, churn
  is in the bubbles; if list.body fires N times, the ForEach itself
  is being rebuilt.
- finalizeStreamingMessage (interval) — pinpoints the end-of-stream
  burst trigger. The 20-bubble re-eval burst we saw at the close of
  each turn lines up with this call; measuring it surfaces whether
  it's the streaming-id rewrite, the turn-duration assignment, or
  something downstream.
- firstByte / firstThoughtByte (event) — fires once per turn on the
  first chunk after currentTurnStart is set. Splits user-tap → first
  byte (network + Hermes thinking, the dominant component of the 7-11s
  sendPrompt) from first byte → turn end (Scarf streaming render).
- loadConfig caller hint via os.Logger — when ScarfMon is in Full mode,
  logs the first stack frame above each loadConfig call to the
  com.scarf.mon subsystem so mystery callers (the read at t=264282
  with no apparent trigger in the prior baseline) become traceable
  via `log stream`. Symbol-only, no PII, free outside Full mode.

All four are pure additions — no behavior change, same zero-cost
default-off semantics as Phase 2.

Alan Wizemann 3126c34561 feat(scarfmon): chat + transport + sqlite measure points (Phase 2)
Wires ScarfMon measure points into the chat hot path on both targets,
plus the underlying SSH transport and remote-SQLite backend. All
callsites are surgical adds — no behavior change. Cost when ScarfMon
is in `.signpostOnly` (default) is one os_signpost emit per call,
elided by the runtime outside an Instruments session. In `.full` mode
the same callsites also push samples into the in-memory ring buffer.

Render counters (event):
- mac.ChatView.body / ios.ChatView.body — full transcript pane re-evals
- mac.RichMessageBubble.body / ios.MessageBubble.body — per-bubble re-evals

Stream + session (event + interval):
- mac.sendViaACP, mac.sendPrompt — user tap → first-byte
- mac.acpEvent, mac.handleACPEvent — per-event delivery + handle cost
- mac.startACPSession — session boot
- ios.send, ios.startResuming — same shape on iOS
- ios.acpEvent, ios.handleACPEvent — same per-event split on iOS

Transport + SQLite (interval, with byte counts on rows):
- ssh.streamScript (Citadel iOS) — SSH round-trip
- ssh.run (SSHScriptRunner Mac) — SSH round-trip
- sqlite.query, sqlite.queryBatch — Remote SQLite per-call
- sqlite.query.rows — row count + stdout bytes per query

Disk I/O (interval):
- diskIO.loadConfig — config.yaml read + parse
- diskIO.loadCronJobs — cron jobs.json decode

Body counters use the `let _: Void = ScarfMon.event(...)` pattern at
the top of `body` — works inside `@ViewBuilder` and fires on every
re-eval, which is exactly the signal we want.

To use:
  Mac: Settings → Advanced → Performance Diagnostics → Full
  iOS: Settings → Diagnostics → Performance → Full
Both panels auto-aggregate by (category, name), surface top 20 by
p95, and offer Copy as JSON for sharing in feedback threads.

Alan Wizemann 6cf59c8a44 feat(scarfmon): perf instrumentation plumbing for iOS + Mac (Phase 1)
ScarfMon lands the always-on perf instrumentation harness. Phase 1 ships
the plumbing only; Phase 2 wires the chat measure points.

Core (ScarfCore/Diagnostics/):
- ScarfMon — public API: measure / measureAsync / event with @inline(__always)
  short-circuit when the backend set is empty so the off path is one
  branch + return. Categories are an enum, names are StaticString so
  user content cannot leak through metric tags.
- ScarfMonRingBuffer — fixed-capacity (4096) lock-protected ring; one
  os_unfair_lock per record; summary() aggregates by (category, name)
  with nearest-rank p50/p95; exportJSON() emits a one-line-per-sample
  dump for the Copy as JSON button.
- ScarfMonSignpostBackend — emits os_signpost into a dedicated
  com.scarf.mon subsystem so Instruments → Points of Interest shows
  Scarf's own measure points without a debug build.
- ScarfMonLoggerBackend — Logger(.debug) sink for users running
  `log stream --predicate 'subsystem == \"com.scarf.mon\"'`.
- ScarfMonBoot — three modes (off / signpostOnly / full); persists the
  user's choice in UserDefaults under ScarfMonMode; configure() is
  idempotent and replaces the active backend set atomically.

Tests: 11 cases covering ring ordering / wrap / reset, summary
aggregation, p95 percentiles, event vs interval semantics, install /
isActive, measure + measureAsync (including the throw path), boot
mode transitions, and JSON export round-trip. @Suite(.serialized)
because the suite mutates process-wide backend state.

App wiring:
- ScarfIOSApp.init + ScarfApp.init call ScarfMonBoot.configure(mode:)
  with the persisted mode (default .signpostOnly).
- iOS Settings → Diagnostics → Performance row leads to a list-style
  panel with the segmented mode picker, top-20 stat rows by p95, Copy
  as JSON, and Reset.
- Mac Settings → Advanced gains a ScarfMonDiagnosticsSection with the
  same shape (NSPasteboard for copy).

Open-source by design — no remote upload, no analytics. The ring buffer
never leaves the device unless the user explicitly taps Copy as JSON.

Alan Wizemann 272da6a915 fix(transport,widgets): code-review fixes for v2.7 + iOS Citadel transport
- CronStatusWidgetView: include jobId + lineCount in `.task(id:)` so widget reload fires when dashboard.json changes either field, not only when the file watcher ticks
- CitadelServerTransport.runScript: enforce the timeout via withThrowingTaskGroup race; propagate transport-level Citadel errors as TransportError.other (so RemoteSQLiteBackend.query maps them to BackendError.transport instead of misclassifying as BackendError.sqlite via a fake -1 exit code); throw TransportError.timeout on the deadline branch with partial stdout preserved
- SSHScriptRunner: close fileHandleForReading on stdout/stderr Pipes in the timeout branch (success path already did); check Task.isCancelled inside the busy-wait so a cancelled parent task terminates the subprocess early instead of waiting out the full timeout. Both runOverSSH and runLocally fixed.

Alan Wizemann c7bcfd8655 feat(dashboards): v2.7 widget catalog — file-reading widgets, sparkline, typed status, project-wide watch
Major project-dashboard release. Five new widget types (markdown_file, log_tail,
cron_status, image, status_grid), inline sparkline on stat, typed status enum
shared by list + status_grid, structured WidgetErrorCard, and a project-wide
.scarf/ directory watch that picks up files cron jobs write next to dashboard.json.

- ProjectDashboard: extend DashboardWidget with path/lines/jobId/cells/gridColumns/sparkline; add StatusGridCell + ListItemStatus (lenient parse with synonyms)
- HermesFileWatcher: watch each project's .scarf/ dir alongside dashboard.json (local FSEvents + remote SSH mtime poll); updateProjectWatches signature now takes dashboardPaths + scarfDirs
- New widget views: CronStatus, Image, LogTail, MarkdownFile, StatusGrid, plus WidgetErrorCard for structured failure messaging; legacy "Unknown" placeholder replaced everywhere
- WidgetPathResolver: project-root-anchored path resolution that rejects absolute paths + ".." escapes pre and post canonicalization
- Stat widget gains optional inline sparkline (pure SwiftUI Path, no Charts dep); list widget rows route through typed status with semantic icons + ScarfColor tints
- iOS list widget + unsupported card adopt typed status + warning-toned error card (parity with Mac error styling); new widget types remain Mac-only
- Site mirror: widgets.js renders all five new types (file-reading widgets show annotated catalog placeholders), sparkline SVG, status-grid grid; styles.css adds typed-status palette + error-card + sparkline + grid styles
- Catalog validator: tools/widget-schema.json is the single source of truth; build-catalog.py loads it and enforces per-type required fields. 8 new test cases in test_build_catalog.py covering schema load, v2.7 additions, and missing-required rejection
- Template-author skill (SKILL.md) gains v2.7 Widget Catalog section + canonical status guidance; CONTRIBUTING.md points authors at widget-schema.json; template-author bundle rebuilt
- Localizable.xcstrings picks up auto-extracted strings for the previously-shipped OAuth keepalive feature
- Release notes drafted at releases/v2.7.0/RELEASE_NOTES.md

Backwards compatible — existing dashboard.json renders byte-identically, status synonyms (ok/up/down/active/etc.) keep working.

Alan Wizemann 9d945150e0 fix(chat): suppress 'stop' badge in metadata footer for normal turn ends
Every text-bearing assistant turn finalizes with `finishReason="stop"`
(set by `RichChatViewModel.finalizeStreamingMessage` line 881 — the
standard end-of-turn signal Hermes/ACP/OpenAI all emit). The
`metadataFooter` in `RichMessageBubble` was rendering it
unconditionally, so every assistant bubble carried a `· stop · TIME`
footer. Combined with terse model output (e.g. deepseek-v4-flash
emitting only a brief status line before ending the turn), the
badge created a misleading "the agent gave up" impression — there
was no warning, error, or actual failure.

Match the convention used by ChatGPT, Claude.ai, Cursor, etc.:
suppress the badge for normal end-of-turn (`stop` / `end_turn`),
reserve it for abnormal terminations the user actually wants to
see (`max_tokens`, `length`, `error`, `refusal`, `content_filter`,
…). When it does render, color it with severity tone — warning
yellow for "response cut short" cases, danger red for failures
and refusals, muted otherwise.

The existing `handlePromptComplete` system-message-injection path
(line 725-751) for non-`end_turn` stops still surfaces those cases
explicitly at the top of the chat — this change only trims the
always-on badge from the per-message footer.

Alan Wizemann fa15634381 fix(oauth-keepalive): drop unsupported --silent flag from cron create
`hermes cron create` only accepts --name, --deliver, --repeat,
--skill, --script, --workdir. The `silent: Bool?` field on
HermesCronJob exists in the JSON model but isn't exposed through
the CLI's create verb today — argparse rejected the unknown flag,
non-zero exit, toggle failed with the generic CLI hint.

Drops the flag; the keepalive runs with Hermes's default delivery.
Token-refresh side effect during session boot is unaffected.

Alan Wizemann 3271391506 fix(chat): debounce sidebar reloads so sessions list doesn't flicker mid-stream
ChatView's `.onChange(of: fileWatcher.lastChangeDate)` fired an
unconditional `Task { await viewModel.loadRecentSessions() }` on
every file-watcher tick. During an ACP message stream the watcher
fires 5–10 times per second (every message Hermes persists bumps
`state.db-wal`'s mtime), and each spawned task re-fetched sessions +
previews + project attribution and reassigned `recentSessions` even
though the data was identical. Each reassignment triggered an
@Observable re-render of the chat sidebar; the user saw the chats
list visibly disappear and reappear several times while typing the
first message in a new chat.

Two changes:

* Add `scheduleSessionsRefresh()` to ChatViewModel — coalesces rapid
  ticks into one trailing `loadRecentSessions()` ~500 ms after the
  last tick. ChatView's onChange now calls this instead. The 500 ms
  window is short enough that idle external changes (a session
  created from another `hermes` invocation, a rename from a
  different window) still appear "soon", and long enough to absorb
  a streaming-response burst.
* Add an explicit `await loadRecentSessions()` to
  `autoStartACPAndSend` after the new session id resolves — the
  debounce would otherwise delay the just-created chat from
  appearing in the sidebar by 500 ms after first send. Mirrors what
  `startACPSession` already does at line 619 for the explicit New /
  Resume paths.

Alan Wizemann 5afd391838 feat(sidebar): promote Projects to first section + move profile chip under server name
Two small UX tweaks to the macOS sidebar:

* Reorder sections so Projects is the top section above Monitor.
  Reflects how users actually start sessions in Scarf — they pick a
  project first, then drill into chat / sessions / etc. The previous
  order put the read-mostly Dashboard at the top, which made
  Projects feel like a secondary surface.
* Move the active-profile chip out of the top header HStack (where
  it competed for horizontal space with the server-name pill) and
  drop it into a second row right-aligned under the server name.
  Top row stays clean: `[icon] Scarf       <server>`. Second row:
  `                              profile: <name>` only on local
  contexts. Same click target, same .help, just better-anchored.

Alan Wizemann 2a368a04f7 feat(window): persist window size + position across app launches
SwiftUI's WindowGroup exposes `.defaultSize` and `.windowResizability`
but no built-in autosave for window frame across launches. The
documented escape hatch is AppKit's
`NSWindow.setFrameAutosaveName(_:)`, which writes the frame to
UserDefaults on resize/move and restores it on next open.

Add a small `WindowFrameAutosave` NSViewRepresentable that finds its
hosting NSWindow on first appear and stamps the autosave name. Apply
it to `ContextBoundRoot` keyed off `context.id` so each open server
window remembers its own geometry. New servers fall back to the
WindowGroup's `.defaultSize(1100, 700)` until the user resizes once.

A previous WIP attempt (dd4a61f) tried to use a fictional
`.windowFrameAutosaveName(...)` SwiftUI modifier that doesn't exist —
which is why it was never merged. This works because we go through
AppKit directly.

Also picks up Xcode's auto-extracted cron-related Localizable.xcstrings
entries that had been pending.

Alan Wizemann 9aa901a286 fix(credential-pools): refresh view after OAuth sheet dismiss
The sheet auto-closes 0.8s after `oauthFlow.succeeded` flips, but
the parent view didn't reload — so the expiry badge stayed red and
the `tokenTail` stayed stale until the user hit Reload. Hook
`viewModel.load()` + `probeKeepalive()` into the sheet's
`onDismiss` so the freshly-written `auth.json` lands on screen
immediately. Runs on every dismiss (success or cancel) — `load()`
is cheap and idempotent.

Alan Wizemann 111fe9bb67 feat(oauth): unblock remote re-auth + daily keepalive to prevent expiry
Two related fixes for OAuth subscriptions (Nous Portal, Anthropic
Claude OAuth, etc.):

- **Remote re-auth stall**: Both `NousAuthFlow` and
  `OAuthFlowController` set `PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1` only on local
  contexts. On remote, setting `proc.environment` only affects the
  local-side ssh process — not the remote python interpreter. ssh
  doesn't forward arbitrary env vars without `SendEnv` configured on
  both sides, so remote hermes ran with default block-buffered stdout
  and the device-code prompt never reached Scarf — the sheet hung at
  "Contacting Nous Portal" forever. Fix: when remote, wrap the
  command in `env PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 …` to inject the var on the
  remote side regardless of ssh config.
- **Daily keepalive**: Hermes refreshes OAuth access tokens on agent
  startup but never proactively. If the user goes longer than the
  refresh-token lifetime (~30 days for Nous) without starting a
  session, the refresh token itself expires and full re-auth is
  required. New `OAuthKeepaliveCronService` registers a Scarf-owned
  daily cron job (`[scarf:oauth-keepalive] OAuth token refresh`) at
  4am that runs a minimal one-token prompt — booting the session is
  what triggers `resolve_nous_runtime_credentials()`. Wired as an
  opt-in toggle in the OAuth providers section of CredentialPoolsView.
  When `hermes auth refresh <provider>` lands upstream we'll swap the
  prompt for that verb; the surrounding wiring stays unchanged.
- **Stale-refresh nudge**: `NousSubscriptionState` gains
  `daysSinceLastRefresh()` + `hasStaleRefresh` (>= 14 days, half of
  Nous's 30-day refresh-token window). The keepalive section
  surfaces an inline orange warning when stale and the toggle is
  off — points the user at the toggle that would have prevented the
  problem.

Verification: scarfCore 263/263; Mac app builds clean. Manual repro
of remote stall against Digital Ocean droplet pending user test.

Alan Wizemann 6191c9f19f fix(remote-backend): pre-expand ~/ in Swift via resolvedUserHome
The previous fix (b8b426e) rewrote `~/.hermes/state.db` to
`"$HOME/.hermes/state.db"` and relied on the remote shell to expand
$HOME. That works on Mac SSHTransport (login shell with $HOME set in
the environment) but not reliably through Citadel's exec channel +
base64-decode + inner-/bin/sh pipeline on iOS — the user reports
"unable to open database \"~/.hermes/state.db\"" connecting from
ScarfGo (iOS Simulator) to 127.0.0.1, meaning the literal `~`
character reached sqlite3 untouched.

Switch to client-side expansion: probe remote $HOME once at
RemoteSQLiteBackend.open() via the existing
ServerContext.resolvedUserHome() helper (which uses transport.runProcess
to `echo $HOME` — same code path Hermes CLI calls already exercise
successfully on iOS). Cache the result. quoteForRemoteShell then
substitutes `~/` with the absolute path in Swift before single-
quoting, so sqlite3 receives `/Users/alan/.hermes/state.db` directly
— no nested-shell expansion required.

Falls back to the previous "$HOME/..."-quoted form when the home
probe fails (rare; covers the case where runProcess can't reach the
remote but the user happens to have a working streamScript path).

Mirrors how RemoteBackupService.expandTilde already handles the same
problem upstream.

Alan Wizemann b8b426ed75 fix(remote-backend): expand ~/ to $HOME so sqlite3 finds the DB
Default-config remotes (Hetzner, Digital Ocean, anything where the
user hasn't overridden remoteHome on the SSHConfig) have
`paths.stateDB == "~/.hermes/state.db"`. The streaming backend was
single-quoting that path, which suppresses tilde expansion, and
sqlite3 itself doesn't expand `~` (that's a shell affordance). Result:
"Error: unable to open database \"~/.hermes/state.db\": unable to open
database file" — the path was reaching sqlite3 with a literal `~`
that it tried to interpret as a directory name.

Replace the single-quote-only `escape(_:)` with `quoteForRemoteShell(_:)`
that mirrors `SSHTransport.remotePathArg`'s pattern: rewrite leading
`~/` to `"$HOME/..."` (double-quoted so the shell expands `$HOME`,
backslash-escaping any embedded `\\`, `"`, `$`, ` to keep the literal
intact), bare `~` to `"$HOME"`, and absolute paths get the standard
single-quote-with-`'\''`-escape treatment.

Adds a regression test (`openWithDefaultTildeHomeExpands`) that
exercises the tilde-rewrite end-to-end against a real /bin/sh: places
a fixture state.db at `~/.hermes/state.db` (backing up the user's
real DB if present) and verifies open() + a query both succeed
through the streaming path.

Alan Wizemann 593b4e62cb feat(remote): replace SQLite snapshot pipeline with SSH query streaming
The remote-DB pipeline pulled the entire state.db down via scp on
every refresh tick. For the issue #74 user (4.87 GB DB) that meant
~7-min per-snapshot wall time even with the size-aware-timeout fix,
~30 GB/hour upload, and data permanently 5–10 minutes stale. This
isn't a bug to patch — it's the wrong architecture for any non-trivial
remote DB.

Replace it with per-query streaming over SSH. Each SQL statement
becomes one ssh round-trip running `sqlite3 -readonly -json` against
the live remote DB. ControlMaster keeps the channel warm at ~5 ms
overhead; sqlite3 cold-start adds ~30–50 ms; total ~50–100 ms per
query vs. the old multi-minute snapshot. Bandwidth scales with query
result size, not DB size.

What changed:

* New `HermesQueryBackend` protocol and two implementations:
  `LocalSQLiteBackend` (libsqlite3 in-process — local performance
  unchanged) and `RemoteSQLiteBackend` (sqlite3 over SSH per query
  with batched-statement support for multi-query view loads).
* `SQLValue` and `Row` types as the typed boundary between backends
  and the row parsers. `SQLValueInliner` substitutes `?` placeholders
  with SQLite-escaped literals for the remote-CLI codepath (local
  backend keeps real `sqlite3_bind_*`).
* `ServerTransport` swaps `snapshotSQLite` + `cachedSnapshotPath` for
  `streamScript(_:timeout:)`. SSHTransport delegates to the existing
  `SSHScriptRunner`; CitadelServerTransport (iOS) base64-encodes the
  script + decodes remotely via Citadel's exec channel since stdin
  pipes aren't supported there yet.
* `HermesDataService` becomes a thin facade — every fetch* method
  routes through `backend.query(...)`. Public API is unchanged for
  view-model callers; `lastSnapshotMtime`/`isUsingStaleSnapshot`/
  `staleAge` removed (had zero UI consumers).
* New `dashboardSnapshot()` and `insightsSnapshot(since:)` batched
  calls turn Dashboard's 4-query and Insights' 5-query view loads
  into one SSH round-trip each (~80–100 ms total instead of ~280 ms
  naive). DashboardViewModel and InsightsViewModel updated to use
  them.
* One-time launch migration in `scarfApp` wipes the orphaned
  `~/Library/Caches/scarf/snapshots/` directory (could be 5 GB+ for
  the issue #74 user).

JSON parsing detail: sqlite3 -json preserves SELECT column order in
the raw bytes, but `[String: Any]` from NSJSONSerialization doesn't.
The remote backend extracts column ordering by walking the first
object's literal bytes — without this, every positional row read
(`row.string(at: 0)`) would silently return wrong columns.

Tests: 41 new across `SQLValueInlinerTests`, `HermesDataServiceBackendTests`
(mock backend) and `RemoteSQLiteBackendTests` (integration via local
sqlite3 binary). Full suite 262/262 passing.

Builds clean on Mac and iOS. Ships as part of v2.7.

Alan Wizemann de36411a8d fix(remote): size-aware snapshot timeouts and partial-file cleanup (#74)
The remote-DB snapshot pipeline was hardcoded to a 120s scp timeout and
a 60s remote-backup timeout. For users with a multi-GB state.db (the
report cites 4.87 GB), 120s is wildly insufficient — at typical home
upload speeds (5-50 Mbps) a 5GB transfer takes 13 minutes to several
hours. scp gets killed mid-transfer, leaves a partially-written .db at
the cache path, and every subsequent attempt opens that corrupt file
with sqlite_open returning garbage. Symptom: SSH connects, all
diagnostics pass, but Dashboard / Sessions / Memory show no data.

Changes to SSHTransport.snapshotSQLite:

* Probe `stat` on the remote DB before starting. Drives both the
  timeout budget and a local-disk-space pre-flight (refuses to start
  if local Caches volume can't hold size + 500MB margin).
* Adaptive timeouts based on remote size:
  - backup: 60s base + 1s per 100MB, capped at 600s.
  - scp:    300s base + 0.5s per MB (≈2 MB/s minimum throughput),
            capped at 3600s.
  Defaults of 60s/300s when stat fails (still up from 120s on scp).
* Add `-C` to scp args. SQLite DBs have lots of zero-padded empty
  pages and typically compress 30-50% in transit.
* On any failure path, remove the partial local snapshot file so the
  next attempt starts fresh instead of opening a corrupt DB.
* Rewrite the generic "Command timed out after Ns" error into a
  specific "Snapshot transfer timed out after Ns pulling X.X GB
  state.db from <host>" so users on slow links know what hit the
  wall instead of seeing a meaningless number.

Cannot reproduce locally (no 5GB state.db on hand), but the failure
mode is unambiguous from code reading: hardcoded 120s vs. real-world
multi-GB transfer durations.

Alan Wizemann 5be67282d8 test(layer-b): full Install → Configure → Open → Uninstall journey XCUITest (#73)
Closes the deferred Layer B install-drive that v2.7's smoke test
left as future work. The new test
(`testFullCatalogToInstallToDashboardJourney`) drives the full
install/uninstall pipeline end-to-end and validates 9 assertion
points along the way:

- Window surfaces under `--scarf-test-mode`
- Sidebar navigation to Projects
- Install sheet appears (URL handoff via launch arg)
- Parent-dir field accepts custom path + Continue
- Configure sheet renders + commit clicks
- Confirm Install runs the install pipeline
- Open Project advances to success view
- Project row appears in sidebar with uniquified name
- Right-click Uninstall + confirm Remove + Done removes the row

Runs in ~30s green on the dev Mac.

## What needed wiring up

**SwiftUI Menu / NSToolbarItem accessibility-bridging.** macOS
toolbar Menus don't propagate `.accessibilityIdentifier` through to
XCUITest — neither the menu trigger NOR the popup contents are
queryable by ID. Verified by tree-dump diagnostics. The test
sidesteps this entirely by routing the install URL through a new
`--scarf-test-install-url <https-url>` launch arg that calls
`TemplateURLRouter.shared.handle(scarf://install?url=...)` at App
init, gated on `TestModeFlags.shared.isTestMode`. Production
launches (no flag) untouched.

**Accessibility IDs added** on the new install/uninstall path:
- `templateConfig.commitButton`, `templateConfig.cancelButton`
- `projects.row.<name>`, `sidebar.section.<rawValue>`
- `projects.contextMenu.uninstallTemplate`
- `templateUninstall.confirmRemove`
- `templateInstall.success.openProject`
- `templateUninstall.success.done`

**Sandboxed-runner caveat.** The XCUITest runner's `/tmp` is
sandbox-protected (createDirectory throws EPERM); we use
`NSTemporaryDirectory()` which resolves to the runner's container
tmp (`~/Library/Containers/com.scarfUITests.xctrunner/Data/tmp/`),
which the unsandboxed Scarf app can read since it has full disk
access.

## Known cohabitation hazard (pre-existing uninstaller bug)

If the dev Mac already has a project from the same template
installed, the install pipeline uniquifies the new project's name
("HackerNews Daily Digest 2") but BOTH projects' cron jobs get
registered under the same `[tmpl:awizemann/hackernews-digest] Daily
HN digest` name. `ProjectTemplateUninstaller.loadUninstallPlan`
resolves cron jobs to remove by NAME and can target the wrong
project's job. The Layer B test surfaces this — manifests as: test
passes, the dev's real project's cron job disappears.

**Fix (separate work):** store cron-job IDs in
`<project>/.scarf/template.lock.json` at install time and resolve
by ID at uninstall time. Until then, the test docstring warns
about cohabitation; recovery is `hermes cron create` to recreate
the lost job.

Alan Wizemann c661945a1f feat(cron): auth-error banner + running indicator + per-job log tail (#72)
Cron rows now surface the same OAuth-refresh-revoked recovery flow as
chat instead of a generic red dot, plus three previously-missing
observability cues:

- ACPErrorHint.classify is reused on `job.lastError`. When it returns
  `oauthRefreshRevoked(provider)` the detail pane shows the human hint
  + a "Re-authenticate" button that drops the user into Credential
  Pools via `coordinator.pendingOAuthReauth = provider` — same wiring
  ChatView's banner uses. Unrecognized errors fall back to the legacy
  red `lastError` text (no regression).
- Row dot turns blue + pulses when `state == "running"` (taking
  precedence over disabled / error / success); the detail header gains
  a `ScarfBadge("running…", kind: .info)` next to active/paused. No new
  polling — `HermesFileWatcher.lastChangeDate` (already wired into
  ActivityView/Logs) drives `CronViewModel.load()` so state flips
  surface within a watcher tick.
- "LAST RUN OUTPUT" replaces the inline `LAST OUTPUT` block with a
  collapsible panel: a one-line summary (`<timestamp> — ok|error|running…`)
  always visible, full monospaced terminal-style scroll view on
  expand, auto-scrolls to bottom when new runs land.

Also fixes a pre-existing bug in `HermesFileService.loadCronOutput`:
Hermes nests per-run output under `~/.hermes/cron/output/<jobId>/<ts>.md`
but the loader treated the dir as flat, so the cron output panel never
rendered any content. The fix walks the per-job subdir + keeps the
legacy flat-file fallback for older Hermes layouts.

Alan Wizemann f5f8dc30b6 Dogfooding templates: HN Digest + in-app catalog browser + test harness (#71)
* feat(templates): hackernews-digest template + dogfooding test harness

First pass of the dogfooding-templates initiative. Each pre-release cycle
ships one new official `.scarftemplate` and uses installing/exercising
that template as the regression test. v1 lands the harness scaffolding
plus the first template under it.

- HackerNews Daily Digest template (`templates/awizemann/hackernews-digest/`):
  config-driven (min_score / max_items / topics) cron-only template.
  No secrets — keeps the harness minimal until the fake-Keychain shim
  lands. Bundle validates against `tools/build-catalog.py`; entry added
  to `templates/catalog.json`.
- `SCARF_HERMES_HOME` env-var override at `HermesProfileResolver` —
  the seam every Layer-B test relies on to drive Scarf against an
  isolated Hermes home. Bypasses cache + active_profile lookup; rejects
  relative paths. 5 unit tests + 3 ServerContext integration tests.
- `TestModeFlags.shared.isTestMode` — reads `--scarf-test-mode` once
  from `CommandLine.arguments`. Wiring only; gating sites (Sparkle,
  capability probe, first-run walkthrough) land as Layer-B exercises
  them.
- Layer A (`scarf/scarfTests/TemplateE2ETests.swift`): parses + plans
  the shipped HN bundle the way the app does at install time;
  asserts manifest, config schema, dashboard widgets, and cron prompt
  contract. Mirrors the existing site-status-checker coverage.
- Layer B scaffold (`scarf/scarfUITests/TemplateInstallUITests.swift`):
  proves the launch-arg + env-var plumbing reaches Scarf. Full install
  click-through deferred until fixture-Hermes-home and accessibility
  IDs land.

Wiki pages added separately on the `.wiki-worktree` branch:
- `Template-Ideas.md` — backlog of 9 v1-feasible templates +
  full-spec v3 epic for Project-Site-as-Living-Surface (eBay listings
  use case).
- `Test-Harness.md` — contributor guide for extending the harness.

Verification: scarfTests 124/124, ScarfCore 220/220, new Layer A 3/3,
Layer B scaffold 1/1, build-catalog.py + its 28 unit tests all green.

* feat(test-harness): Layer B pivot to real ~/.hermes + a11y IDs + Sparkle gating

Discovered during Layer B work that XCUITest runners are sandboxed:
they can read ~/.hermes/ but writes throw NSFileWriteNoPermissionError.
That kills the SCARF_HERMES_HOME-based isolation pattern for UI tests —
snapshot/restore from inside the runner can't work. Pivot:

- Layer B drives the real ~/.hermes the dev Mac is already running
  against. The harness assumes a working Hermes install (XCTSkip if
  the binary isn't there). Cleanup is via the app's own UI flows
  (which have full disk access), not direct file I/O. Layer A keeps
  its env-var seam — those tests run inside the host app's address
  space and write freely.
- SwiftUI's WindowGroup(for: ServerID.self) doesn't auto-surface a
  window on a fresh XCUIApplication.launch(). The harness sends ⌘1
  (the "Open Server → Local" menu shortcut wired in scarfApp.swift's
  OpenServerCommands) to take the same code path real users hit via
  Dock click.
- Real user home resolved via getpwuid(getuid()) rather than
  NSHomeDirectory(), which inside the sandboxed runner returns
  ~/Library/Containers/com.scarfUITests.xctrunner/Data.
- 8 accessibility IDs added on the install path so the next iteration
  can drive the full Templates → Install from URL → Parent dir →
  Confirm Install flow without depending on view-tree label scraping:
  templates.toolbar.menu, templates.installFromFile,
  templates.installFromURL, templates.installURL.field,
  templates.installURL.confirm, templateInstall.parentDir.field,
  templateInstall.parentDir.continue, templateInstall.confirmInstall.
- TestModeFlags.shared.isTestMode now gates UpdaterService —
  --scarf-test-mode launches Sparkle inert so update prompts don't
  pop on top of an XCUITest-driven window. Production launches
  unchanged.

FixtureHermesHome.swift removed — the fixture-tmpdir approach is
abandoned in favour of using the real installation. Layer A's
SCARF_HERMES_HOME tests still pass; they just don't need a populated
home to exercise path derivation.

Verification: scarfTests 124/124, ScarfCore 220/220, Layer B smoke
1/1 (after fresh build — XCUITest is sensitive to stale binaries).
catalog.py --check still green.

* fix(chat): clip placeholder to TextEditor bounds and clear it on focus

Two related bugs in the Mac chat composer's placeholder overlay:

* The "Message Hermes… / for commands · drag images to attach" hint had
  no width constraint, so on narrower window geometries it visibly
  overflowed past the rounded TextEditor boundary. Add `lineLimit(1)`,
  `truncationMode(.tail)`, and `frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment:
  .leading)` so it ellipsizes inside the field instead.
* The opacity formula `text.isEmpty ? 1 : 0` only hid the placeholder
  once content was typed, not when the field gained focus. Standard
  NSTextField / UITextField semantics clear the placeholder on focus.
  Switch to `(text.isEmpty && !isFocused) ? 1 : 0` so the hint
  disappears the moment the user clicks into the field.

The opaque-background ghosting mitigation from #65 is preserved
unchanged.

* fix(chat): surface OAuth refresh-revoked errors with in-app re-auth

When an OAuth provider's refresh token was revoked, Hermes printed
"Refresh session has been revoked. Run `hermes model` to re-authenticate."
to stderr but Scarf swallowed it — the user saw a typing indicator that
silently disappeared with no banner, no system message, no actionable
hint. The error classifier had no pattern for OAuth revocation.

- `ACPErrorHint.classify` now returns a `Classification` struct
  carrying the hint plus an optional `oauthProvider` name. New
  patterns match "Refresh session has been revoked", "re-authenticate",
  and 401-with-OAuth-provider-name (whole-word so `anthropicapi`
  doesn't false-match `anthropic`). Provider extraction lets the UI
  dispatch the right re-auth flow.
- Chat error banner ([ChatView.swift]) gains a "Re-authenticate" button
  when an OAuth provider was identified — sets
  `AppCoordinator.pendingOAuthReauth` and routes to Credential Pools.
- Credential Pools view consumes the hand-off slot to auto-present
  AddCredentialSheet seeded with the affected provider, AND adds a
  per-row "Re-authenticate" button on every OAuth provider so users
  who go straight there don't have to retype the provider name.
- `AddCredentialSheet` accepts an optional `initialProvider` that
  pre-fills providerID + authType=.oauth; the existing Nous-vs-PKCE-
  vs-CLI gate dispatches re-auth identically to first-time setup —
  reuses the same `OAuthFlowController` / `NousSignInSheet` plumbing,
  no new flow code.

Verification: ScarfCore 221/221 (incl. new
errorHintsClassifyOAuthRefreshRevoked covering the four patterns +
word-boundary guard); Mac app builds clean.

* feat(catalog): in-app template catalog browser + sentinel-marker test isolation

The v2.8 catalog browser surfaces every shipped .scarftemplate from
awizemann.github.io/scarf/templates/catalog.json directly in Scarf.
Users now discover and install templates without leaving the app.
Closes the gap that publishing the catalog updated the website but
nothing inside Scarf.

Architecture mirrors NousModelCatalogService 1:1: cache-first fetch,
24h TTL at ~/.hermes/scarf/catalog_cache.json, result enum (fresh /
cache / fallback) with bundled fallback so a fresh-install / offline
user still sees something. Search + category filter + sort
(awizemann official first). Detail page renders entry.config schema
preview without separate README fetch — what's in catalog.json is
what we render. Install hands the HTTPS URL to the existing
TemplateInstallerViewModel.openRemoteURL flow; nothing about the
installer itself changes.

Files:
- Core/Models/CatalogEntry.swift — Decodable mirror of catalog.json
  per-template shape. Identity-based Equatable/Hashable on `id`.
- Core/Services/CatalogService.swift — fetch + cache + fallback
- Core/Services/InstalledTemplatesIndex.swift — walks projects.json +
  template.lock.json to build [templateId: version] map; classify()
  helper for Installed / Update available / Not installed badges
- Features/Templates/ViewModels/CatalogViewModel.swift — @Observable
- Features/Templates/Views/{CatalogView,CatalogRowView,CatalogDetailView,CatalogCategoryFilter}.swift
- Packages/ScarfCore/.../HermesPathSet.swift — adds catalogCache path
- Features/Projects/Views/ProjectsView.swift — Templates toolbar
  menu now opens with "Browse Catalog…"; sheet binding.

Tests (20 new, all passing in isolation):
- CatalogServiceTests (6) — live catalog.json snapshot, cache lifecycle,
  staleness boundary, schema-version mismatch rejection, bundled fallback
- InstalledTemplatesIndexTests (5) — empty registry, templated project,
  ad-hoc project skip, corrupt lock skip, classify() branches
- CatalogViewModelTests (6) — search filter, category filter, official-first
  sort, deduped categories, install state, install URL pass-through

Accessibility IDs (6, on the catalog path): templates.browseCatalog,
catalog.searchField, catalog.refreshButton, catalog.row.<detailSlug>,
catalog.categoryFilter, catalogDetail.installButton.

## Sentinel-marker hardening on SCARF_HERMES_HOME (incident response)

While iterating on v2.8 tests, the env-var override pattern racing
under Swift Testing's parallel-suite scheduler caused
~/.hermes/scarf/projects.json to be overwritten with fixture data
from ProjectsViewModelTests. Recovered the user's projects from the
on-disk dirs they referenced + cron-job prompt paths (6 projects
restored).

To make this class of incident impossible going forward:
HermesProfileResolver.scarfHermesHomeOverride() now requires the
override path to contain a sentinel marker file
(`.scarf-test-home-marker`). Without the marker, the override is
ignored and Scarf falls through to the real ~/.hermes/. Even if a
test crashes mid-teardown leaving the env var set, even if the var
leaks to a non-test process, even if a misconfigured launchctl plist
exports it — the override only activates against directories that
explicitly opt in by carrying the marker. Tests drop the marker in
their tmpdir setUp; production never carries it.

HermesProfileResolverTests gains overrideIsIgnoredWhenMarkerMissing
which verifies the guard is load-bearing. All test files using
SCARF_HERMES_HOME (CatalogServiceTests, CatalogViewModelTests,
InstalledTemplatesIndexTests, TemplateE2ETests) now drop the marker
before setenv.

Verification: 20/20 v2.8 + v2.7 hardened tests pass; 45/45 adjacent
existing tests pass; ScarfCore package tests pass (221/221); catalog
validator clean (3 templates); wiki secret-scan clean.

* fix(swift6): retroactive conformance + verbatim help text + xcstrings refresh

Three small Swift 6 compile-cleanups that landed during the
dogfooding-templates iteration:

- MessageSpeechService — drop `@preconcurrency` on the
  AVSpeechSynthesizerDelegate conformance now that the protocol's
  Sendable annotations are upstreamed.
- ChatView — mark `RichChatViewModel.PendingPermission: Identifiable`
  as `@retroactive`. We don't own either the type or the protocol; the
  Swift 6 compiler flags this so downstream breakage is loud if
  ScarfCore ever adds the conformance upstream.
- CredentialPoolsView — wrap the `.help(...)` string in
  `Text(verbatim:)` so the backticks render literally instead of being
  interpreted as markdown inline-code by the LocalizedStringKey
  overload (which `.help(_:)` rejects styled).

Localizable.xcstrings: auto-generated catalog refresh picking up the
new active-profile + chat error-hint strings landed in earlier
commits on this branch (acd3692, 301806d).

* fix(catalog): error logging + MainActor I/O + semver pre-release + decoder fault tolerance

- InstalledTemplatesIndex: replace bare `try?` reads/decodes with logged
  do/catch so corrupt registry/lock files leave a breadcrumb instead of a
  silent nil.
- InstalledTemplatesIndex.isVersionNewer: handle pre-release suffixes per
  semver §11 — `1.0.0-beta` no longer reports as newer than `1.0.0`,
  preventing a ghost "Update available" that would downgrade users.
- CatalogViewModel.refresh: dispatch the synchronous index walk through
  `Task.detached` so registry + N lock-file reads don't run on
  @MainActor.
- Catalog decoder: per-element fault tolerance via custom `init(from:)` —
  one malformed catalog entry is dropped with a logged warning instead
  of failing the whole catalog decode (honors the per-entry doc-comment
  contract).

Alan Wizemann 34d315793b fix(chat): clip placeholder to TextEditor bounds and clear it on focus
Two related bugs in the Mac chat composer's placeholder overlay:

* The "Message Hermes… / for commands · drag images to attach" hint had
  no width constraint, so on narrower window geometries it visibly
  overflowed past the rounded TextEditor boundary. Add `lineLimit(1)`,
  `truncationMode(.tail)`, and `frame(maxWidth: .infinity, alignment:

* The opacity formula `text.isEmpty ? 1 : 0` only hid the placeholder

  NSTextField / UITextField semantics clear the placeholder on focus.
  Switch to `(text.isEmpty && !isFocused) ? 1 : 0` so the hint
  disappears the moment the user clicks into the field.

Alan Wizemann acd3692faf fix(profiles): switch-and-relaunch flow + active-profile chip + structured logs
Profile selection had no apparent effect on Webhooks/Sessions/SOUL.md/Memory
even after restart in some user setups. The path-resolution code reads
~/.hermes/active_profile correctly on paper, so the failure mode is likely
environment-specific (HERMES_HOME exported in the shell, in-process state
that didn't reset on what the user perceived as a restart, etc). Layer a
defense that's correct regardless of root cause:

* New AppRelauncher helper spawns a fresh `open -n <bundleURL>` and asks
  the current process to terminate after a 250ms delay. Refuses to fire
  from Xcode/DerivedData (the .debugBuild guard) so debug sessions don't
  lose their attached debugger.
* ProfilesViewModel.switchAndRelaunch runs `hermes profile use`, calls
  HermesProfileResolver.invalidateCache(), then relaunches via the helper.
  Existing switchTo() also gains the cache-invalidation step so the
  context-menu "Set Active (no relaunch)" path stays self-consistent.
* ProfilesView replaces the passive "Restart Scarf after switching" text
  with a confirmation-gated `Switch & Relaunch` primary button on the
  detail pane plus the same item in each row's context menu. Confirmation
  dialog flags that all Scarf windows will close.
* SidebarView header gains a brand-tinted ScarfBadge showing the
  currently-active profile on local contexts. Click to jump to the
  Profiles tab. The chip refreshes on `selectedSection` change so a
  terminal-side `hermes profile use` is visible after the next nav.
* HermesProfileResolver success logs gain `name=…, home=…, source=…`
  key=value structure across all three resolution paths (file / file-default /
  default-no-file). `log show … | grep ProfileResolver` now answers
  "what did the resolver decide?" unambiguously for support requests.

Closes #70

Alan Wizemann ab615f0c28 feat(ios-chat): redesign composer with HIG touch targets and clear disabled state
Send button is now a 44pt circular target with an explicit color swap
(rust accent → background-tertiary) on disable, instead of relying on
SwiftUI's default opacity dim — addresses the "first tap doesn't
register" complaint by making the inactive state visibly different in
both light and dark mode. Paperclip and text field both gain a 44pt
minimum height so the row feels modern and roomy.

The text field swaps `.roundedBorder` for a plain field with a
ScarfRadius.xl rounded fill (ScarfColor.backgroundSecondary) and a
borderStrong stroke. Outer paddings and HStack spacing migrate from
magic numbers to ScarfSpace tokens.

Preserves verbatim: the `.toolbar { ToolbarItemGroup(placement: .keyboard) }`
keyboard-dismiss chevron (issue #51), draft persistence, .submitLabel,
@FocusState, photo-picker wiring, attachment-strip rendering, and every
.disabled() predicate.

Closes #69

Alan Wizemann 982ed7da92 chore: bump iOS build to 30 for TestFlight
iOS-only patch carrying the rotation lock + chat-start preflight
off-MainActor fixes from cb164f0. Mac side stays on the v2.6.0
binary already shipped (build 29 archive); this build number bump
only affects future Mac archives, not the one already notarized.

Uploaded to App Store Connect via altool — Apple processing now,

Alan Wizemann cb164f07f9 fix(ios): lock iPhone to portrait + move chat-start preflight off MainActor
Two iOS-specific crash classes from the v2.5.1 TestFlight feedback
round:

**Rotation crash** — locked the iPhone target to
`UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait` only (was Portrait + LandscapeLeft
+ LandscapeRight). The phone can't rotate the app at all anymore,
so any layout path that wasn't audited for size-class transitions
is no longer reachable. iPad orientation list left alone (target
device family is iPhone-only anyway).

**"Crash while typing" / "trying to continue an existing
conversation"** — `ChatController.passModelPreflight()` was doing
a synchronous SSH read (`context.readText(configYAML)`) on
`@MainActor` during chat-start. On a remote ScarfGo context that
blocks the main thread for seconds; iOS's non-responsive-app
watchdog kills the process around 10s. To the user this surfaces
as a "crash" while they're typing — they kept tapping the keyboard
while the connect was hung. Move the read to `Task.detached` and
await it; the UI stays responsive while the SSH I/O drains. Three
callers (`start`, `start(projectPath:)`, `startResuming`) updated
to `await passModelPreflight(...)` — they were already async.

Alan Wizemann 381adfd925 fix(acp): bump control-message timeout 30s→60s for db-contended hosts (#61)
Field-reported (#61): under realistic concurrency where the
Hermes gateway is also running, state.db lock contention
(Discord sync / skill registration / cron scheduling all
holding write locks) stalls ACP's `initialize` / `session/new` /
`session/load` past the previous 30s watchdog, surfacing as
"Starting…" indefinitely or an opaque timeout error.

SQLite contention on a healthy host clears in seconds, so 60s
gives the lock-resolution path room to breathe while still
surfacing genuinely broken transports promptly. `session/prompt`
remains untimed (it streams events and can run for minutes).

Alan Wizemann 254af46e93 feat(chat): per-message TTS playback in assistant bubbles (#66)
Adds a small speaker glyph to the metadata footer of each settled
assistant bubble. Tap to read the reply aloud through
`AVSpeechSynthesizer`; tap again (or any other bubble's button) to
stop. Picks up the user's macOS Spoken Content default voice
automatically — no Hermes dependency, works offline.

- New `MessageSpeechService` (`Core/Services/`) — shared
  `@Observable` synthesizer; `playingMessageId` drives icon
  state. Markdown control characters (asterisks, backticks,
  link syntax) are stripped before speech so the user doesn't
  hear "asterisk asterisk bold".
- `SpeakMessageButton` lives outside `RichMessageBubble.==` so
  the bubble's Equatable short-circuit doesn't freeze the icon
  when playback flips between messages.

The full Hermes-provider TTS pipeline (Edge / ElevenLabs /
OpenAI / NeuTTS / Piper from Settings → Voice) is a much bigger
follow-up — wiring per-provider audio fetching, caching, and
streamed playback is its own quarter. v2.6.0 ships the immediate
"listen while doing something else" affordance.

Alan Wizemann 596c844da5 feat(chat): notify when Hermes finishes a prompt in the background (#64)
Sending a long prompt and switching to other work — the canonical
async-agent flow — required polling the chat to know when the
response landed. Wire a local UNUserNotificationCenter notification
to fire when an ACP prompt completes while Scarf isn't the
foreground app.

- New `ChatNotificationService` (Core/Services) handles lazy
  authorization, foreground gating, and post.
- `ChatViewModel.sendViaACP` calls it on successful prompt
  completion with the assistant's first-line preview and the
  active session title.
- Settings → Display → Feedback adds a "Notify when Hermes finishes"
  toggle, default on. Skipped for `/steer`-style mid-run sends —
  those don't end a turn.

Dock badges and per-session unread state from the issue are
worthwhile follow-ups but out of scope for v2.6.0.

Alan Wizemann ec47d191a1 fix(chat): preserve local user messages across resume cycles (#63)
When a user sent a prompt and immediately switched to a different
session before Hermes flushed the row to state.db, `resumeSession`
ran `reset()` (which clears `messages`) and then
`loadSessionHistory` read the un-persisted DB and replaced the
array with an empty result. The user's bubble came back blank or
disappeared on return.

Hold local-only user messages (negative ids) in a per-session
cache that survives `reset()`. `loadSessionHistory` re-injects any
still-pending entries for the loaded session, dedups against any
DB row that finally caught up (matching content with persisted id
≥ 0), and clears the cache as the DB confirms each entry.

Cache is bounded by sessions sent-in during one app run; entries
clean themselves out as Hermes persists, and orphaned entries
(deleted sessions etc.) are tiny and never re-surface since
session ids are unique per session.

Alan Wizemann 31e6c31acf fix(chat): scope composer state to active session id (#62)
`RichChatInputBar`'s `@State` `text` and `attachments` survived
session switches because the surrounding view tree is structurally
identical across sessions — SwiftUI happily reused the same
instance and leaked the previous session's unsent draft into the
new one.

Bind the composer's identity to `richChat.sessionId` so SwiftUI
rebuilds the view (and its `@State`) on session change. A stable
fallback string covers the brief "no session selected" window;
using `UUID()` here would mint a fresh id on every render and
trash the composer per body re-eval.

Alan Wizemann fcfe1c89d6 fix(chat): stop placeholder ghosting in chat composer (#65)
`TextEditor`'s NSTextView surfaces a typed glyph one frame before
the SwiftUI binding propagates, so the bare `if text.isEmpty`
overlay rendered the translucent placeholder text directly on top
of the just-typed character — the "behind or around" ghost the
reporter described.

Two mitigations:

- Pin an opaque `ScarfColor.backgroundSecondary` rect behind the
  placeholder Text. During any single-frame binding lag the user
  now sees a clean placeholder rather than layered glyphs.
- Switch the conditional to `.opacity(text.isEmpty ? 1 : 0)` so the
  view tree stays stable per keystroke. Pairs with the composer
  perf fix from #67.

Alan Wizemann df1b9caabf fix(chat): scale rich chat content with the font-size slider (#68)
The chat font-size slider only set `\.dynamicTypeSize` on the chat
root, but ScarfFont tokens are fixed-point (`Font.system(size: 14, …)`)
so dynamic type didn't reach bubble text, reasoning, tool chips, code
blocks, or markdown headings. Slider moved between 85%–130% with
little visible effect.

Plumb a separate `\.chatFontScale: Double` env value from
`RichChatView` and have the chat content views read it:

- `RichMessageBubble` — user bubble body, reasoning (disclosure +
  inline), REASONING label, token chip, tool-chip name, metadata
  footer.
- `MarkdownContentView` — paragraphs (now pinned to a scaled body
  font instead of inheriting), headings (1..5), inline-rendered code
  blocks, code-language label.
- `CodeBlockView` — code body and language label.

`ChatFontScale.{body, callout, caption, captionStrong, caption2,
mono, monoSmall, codeBlock, codeInline}(_ scale:)` helpers mirror
`ScarfFont`'s base sizes so scale = 1.0 is byte-for-byte identical
to today's UI; the slider now actually moves the visible chat text.

Other surfaces (settings, sidebar, etc.) still use the static
ScarfFont tokens — chat scaling stays scoped to the chat surface.

Alan Wizemann a41c81c048 fix(chat): coalesce composer onChange writes to stop typing lag (#67)
Typing in the chat composer became unusably laggy because
`updateMenuState()` ran on every keystroke and unconditionally wrote
both `showMenu` and `selectedIndex`. Two state writes inside one
`onChange(of: text)` handler tripped SwiftUI's "action tried to
update multiple times per frame" warning, and each redundant write
forced a full body re-eval — visible as the slow-HID stalls and the
main-thread layout churn the reporter captured in sampling.

Two changes:

- Compute the new selection up front and write only the deltas. Same
  semantics; no spurious mutations.
- Short-circuit the whole handler when the user is composing normal
  text (no `/` prefix) and the menu is already hidden — the common
  case. Stops paying for `SlashCommandMenu.filter` on every keystroke
  of regular prose.
- Replace `.onChange(of: commands.map(\.id))` with
  `.onChange(of: commands.count)`. The mapped form allocated a fresh
  `[String]` on every body re-eval; counting is one int read.
