Two failure modes of a sidebar render crash, fixed together:
1. Layout-push leak (root cause): the layout-push effect wrote
--dsh-sidebar-width/--dsh-sidebar-height on document.documentElement
without a cleanup, so ANY unmount of the Sidebar (error-boundary swap,
plugin disable, HMR) left the variables behind and layout.css kept
squeezing #root with a stale margin — "the sidebar cannot be hidden"
until a full reload. The effect now removes both properties on cleanup
(the CSS fallback 0px restores the layout).
2. Crash containment (UX): the root error boundary previously replaced the
WHOLE sidebar — toggle cluster included — with an error strip on any tab
crash. A new shared RenderBoundary (src/client/RenderBoundary.tsx) now
scopes containment per tab: a crashing viewer/editor shows a dismissible
strip inside its own pane while the toggle cluster, the other tabs, and
the panel stay alive. The descriptor is rendered as a real element
(createElement) so even top-level component throws land in the boundary,
not in TabContent's own render. The root boundary remains as the last
resort for Workbench/shell errors.
Tests (tests/sidebar-crash.spec.tsx, jsdom + real Sidebar/store harness):
- unmount clears both CSS variables (red before the fix: 307px leaked)
- a crashing tab is contained: strip in-pane, collapse button alive,
layout push still live
- the retry button recovers a tab whose crash has since been fixed
Full suite: 425 tests pass; tsc --noEmit clean.
The panel width lived in the per-session state (dsh-sidebar:v1:<id>), so a
drag in one conversation never carried to another: switching conversations
snapped the panel back to that session's own width. The width is a layout
preference, not session content, so it now persists under a cross-session
key (dsh-sidebar:v1:width):
- every persist writes the current width to the global key;
- loadState prefers the global width over a session's persisted one;
- a cache-hit session switch adopts the global width.
Backward compatible: with no global key present (first run / older data)
the behavior is unchanged. Adds a regression test covering drag-in-A ->
switch-to-B and drag-in-B -> switch-back-to-A.
The "add to conversation" selection popup was registered only for the
catch-all code viewer (viewerId === 'code'), so selecting text in the
CodeMirror editor of a markdown file produced no popup; insertion only
worked in markdown preview mode via the separate DOM-selection handler.
Extend the CodeMirror selection popup to the markdown editor
(viewerId === 'markdown') so line-exact selections can be injected into
the composer draft (\`\`\`rel/path:start-end\`\`\` payload), matching
preview-mode behavior and the code viewer.
- Remove every box-shadow; panel uses the native sidebar fill surface
(--dsw-specific-sidebar-fill) with a hairline border, the collapse
control becomes the native 36px circular rail button, the active tab
uses the native interactive-bg-active fill, and rows/typography follow
the native 34px/14px session-row recipe.
- New 'Side card' settings section in the DSH Settings shell: open-by-
default for new conversations (boolean) and default width share as a
percent of the window (20-60). New sessions seed from these prefs;
existing per-session layouts stay untouched.
- The settings namespace is read/written through the plugin's own fenced
/sidebar routes calling the settings seam in-process: the DSH settings
RPC domain only serves allowlisted namespaces to configuration clients,
so third-party namespaces cannot use connection.api.settings (reads are
silently filtered, writes refused with 'not exposed'). The seam still
persists to the user settings document with revision-guarded writes.
- fs-tree joins listed paths with the platform separator (Windows rows
previously leaked mixed separators)
- media route containment check goes through isWithin(): separator-
tolerant and case-insensitive on win32, so case-mismatched Windows
paths are not misclassified
- relativeTo compares case-insensitively (Windows / case-insensitive
macOS volumes) while keeping the caller's own casing in the output
- tests: platform-conditional path assertions, os.tmpdir() instead of
/tmp, isWithin/relativeTo/resolveSidebarPath win32 coverage
- explorer row menu gains a download action (files only); the host route
serves raw bytes with Content-Disposition: attachment, binary-safe
- editor enables line numbers
- state: side-store per conversation, injected as a prop instead of a module singleton
- host: schemastery Config (read/media/list/terminal limits) resolved from cordis config
- shape: types/exports/peerDependencies for the web profile + plugin-shape spec
- fix: split divider emits incremental deltas so drags track the cursor 1:1
- docs: README refresh
The uid counter is module-global and resets on every reload, while the
persisted split tree keeps its old ids (pane:1, split:1, ...). A split
created AFTER a reload minted a fresh "pane:1" beside the persisted
"pane:1"; mapLeaf then visited BOTH leaves, so every open (explorer click,
produced-files chip) landed the tab in both panes of a top-bottom split.
- loadState seeds the counter past the raw persisted ids before sanitize
- setSession re-seeds on cache hits (another session's smaller max must
not leave the counter below this session's ids)
- sanitize re-ids stale duplicate pane/split ids (heals states already
corrupted) and follows the activePane rename
- openTab falls back to the first pane when the active pane is gone
instead of silently dropping the open
Unit tests cover the re-id heal and the stale-activePane fallback;
verified end-to-end in headless Chrome: a state with two "pane:1" leaves
loads healed and a file click lands in exactly one pane.
Cordis only grants property reads for services declared in the plugin's
inject list; every other read throws "cannot get property X without
inject" (the app's own plugins read 'conversation' through ctx.get for
this reason). referenceInChat now resolves the conversation service lazily
via ctx.get('conversation') and no-ops when absent. Verified end-to-end in
headless Chrome: clicking the @file button on root/dir/file rows now
appends the at-relative-path mention to the composer draft with no
console errors.
The new useCallback was declared after the early return for the no-session
state, so the first render (no session) ran fewer hooks than the follow-up
render once a session arrived — React error #310, boundary strip on load.
Moved the hook above the early return (with a sessionId guard) and verified
headlessly: the error no longer appears and the panel renders fully.
