Summary

Remote Claude Threads opened through Windows Web could display the local Agent/model catalog and could not change native settings. Paginated external history also failed, and the Desktop browser-open action could choose a missing bundled Node path in npm installations.

 remote Thread -> Desktop route -> remote Host
-local catalog and generic Codex presentation
+remote ownership, Harness descriptor, Model, Thinking and permissions
+session-scoped catalog and single-setting native configuration
-thread/read(includeTurns: true) for every Thread
+header -> bounded thread/turns/list for paginated history
 npm background Web launcher
+reuse the resolved npm Node for Host startup

The browser keeps remote catalogs isolated by Session while retaining the shared local catalog. Remote writes retain connection epochs, check route identity after awaits and are never replayed after an unknown outcome. Post-selection reads cannot overwrite acknowledged settings with an older snapshot; a Model change is re-read before deciding whether Thinking needs another write. Missing optional Harness metadata leaves history readable without local control fallback.

Evidence

  • Before: five of six initial Controller regressions failed against the original implementation; the installed browser-open RPC reproduced Host runtime or Node executable is missing.
    After: focused Controller/client regressions pass, including pagination, bounds, route changes and no-replay writes. Rust launcher tests cover npm Node fallback and explicit-option precedence.
  • Local checks: npm run typecheck, npm run lint, npm run format:check, npm run build:web:ui, and npm run pack --workspace=@codexhost/web-server. The package contains 43 client plugins and 19 Harness plugins.
  • Focused checks: 24 Controller/client Vitest tests, 34 Web model/catalog/remote Node tests, and 11 browser tests pass. Browser coverage includes colliding Thread IDs on two remote Hosts, Agent/permission/model labels, catalog isolation, actual menu selection, updated labels, follow-up/undo, and local picker behavior at 390px/1280px. Launcher formatting/clippy and 74 unit, 9 CLI and 11 Web-service tests pass on Windows.
  • Browser testing exposed the pinned RPC descriptor dropping the Session argument and the new scoped catalog missing its first load. Both are fixed and covered. Existing English picker fixtures now explicitly choose English, and the late-reply focus assertion preserves the active element on both touch and desktop menus.
  • Real Windows Desktop -> Mac SSH -> Claude Code source-API smoke passed: the user's Thread was read with Claude ownership and Fable metadata; a dedicated synthetic Thread passed Model/Thinking/permission round trips and returned REMOTE_WEB_CONTROLS_OK exactly once. Original test settings were restored and synthetic Threads archived. No user Thread received a test message.

Validation boundaries: browser transport uses an isolated Controller fixture; real Mac smoke uses the new serialized Controller implementation and source Web handlers. This does not establish a packaged macOS Launcher restart, physical phone acceptance or production deployment. Existing installed runtimes and temporary compatibility workarounds remain in place.

Merge Danger

Door: two-way

No state migration, native Harness configuration change or signed Desktop modification.

Blast Radius: remote-controls

Remote Web read/configuration paths and npm background Web startup. Pagination is capped at 100 pages/14 MiB before the existing 16 MiB transport boundary; over-limit history fails explicitly. Native remote Codex history remains readable, with unsupported controls unavailable.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

设置请求完成后再次检查路由身份。

如果 sendRequest(method, params) 等待期间 forHost 切换到新路由,Line 270 的检查已无法保护返回值。此处仍会确认旧路由的结果,Web 可能把当前连接上未确认的设置报告为成功。请在请求完成后比较路由;路由已变时报告连接变更,不要重发写请求。

Comment thread docs/product/standalone-web.md Outdated

分页 external 历史通过所属远端 Host 的 `thread/turns/list` 按时间升序读取完整 items,并限制页数、总字节数和重复游标;读取期间连接代次变化会拒绝该快照。原生及旧版历史继续使用官方整段读取接口。

远程 external 会话的 Harness 名称、模型目录、当前模型、思考等级与权限来自同一远端 Host;Web 不使用本机模型目录替代。远程模型菜单的目录请求携带 Session 身份,按会话隔离缓存;本机会话仍共享本机 Host 目录。模型、思考等级与权限选择分别路由到远端 Thread 的原生配置接口,每次只确认一个设置;重连后过期的设置请求会被拒绝,未知结果的写请求不重试。可选的 Harness 发现结果按连接缓存,查询失败保留历史可读,不循环加载不可用的 Harness。

请在第 71 行限定“模型/权限切换”的适用范围,只指远程原生 Codex Thread。远程 external 会话的模型、思考等级和权限控制应引用第 59 行的说明。其他不支持项保持不变。

避免在每次跟随轮询中重新获取全部历史。

RemoteSessions 每 1.5 秒尝试重读打开的会话。对于 5,000 个 Turn,本循环每次最多发送 100 个分页请求,并重新传输完整历史。长会话因此可能持续占用远端连接,且一次读取的耗时可能超过轮询间隔。请复用已确认的旧页,并在尾部变化时只读取必要的页面。

不要永久缓存失败的 Harness 发现请求。

如果首次 codexhost/harness/inspect 暂时失败,cache 会保留被拒绝的 loading Promise。此后,同一连接上的每次读取都会立即得到该拒绝结果;即使 Harness 恢复,模型和权限控制也不会恢复。请在失败后允许有退避间隔的重试,而不是每 1.5 秒重试或永久保留失败结果。

确认设置写入后,不要把旧配置当作新配置。

此处使旧读取失效,但未使 entry.controls 中的旧设置失效。如果后续读取因可选的 thread/inspect 失败而缺少元数据,mergeRemoteControls 会在同一 epoch 保留旧配置。此时模型切换可能已将 Thinking 重置为 medium,但 selectRemoteModel 仍从旧配置读到 high,跳过用户请求的 high 写入,并返回成功。请从确认的写入结果更新设置,或将设置标为待确认;在取得新配置前,不要用旧值决定第二次写入。
