Closes#261
## Summary
- improve startup remote URL selection when the server binds to
`0.0.0.0`
- print additional reachable remote URLs instead of advertising only the
first external address
- add targeted tests for address ordering and advertisability behavior
## Problem
When CodeNomad was started with `--host 0.0.0.0`, the CLI chose the
first external IPv4 address it discovered and displayed only that one as
the remote URL.
On Windows machines with WSL, Hyper-V, Docker, or other virtual
adapters, that often surfaced a virtual `172.x.x.x` address even though
a more useful LAN address such as `192.168.x.x` was also reachable and
usable from other devices.
That made remote access look broken or confusing even though the server
itself was accessible.
## What changed
- reuse the resolved network-address list for both:
- primary remote URL selection
- startup logging of additional reachable URLs
- choose the primary remote URL from the **advertisable** external
addresses instead of any external address
- print `Other Accessible URLs` when multiple useful remote URLs are
available
- avoid hard-coding a preference like `192.168 > 10 > 172`
- suppress link-local `169.254.*` addresses from user-facing advertised
URLs
- add tests covering:
- stable ordering across RFC1918 address ranges
- link-local addresses being non-advertisable
- link-local-first discovery not stealing the primary LAN URL
## Why this approach
This keeps address derivation in the network-address resolver layer and
limits `index.ts` to startup wiring and presentation.
It also fixes the misleading terminal output without redesigning binding
behavior, TLS behavior, or the server API contract.
## Validation
- `npm run typecheck --workspace @neuralnomads/codenomad`
- `npx tsx --test
'.\\src\\server\\__tests__\\network-addresses.test.ts'`
## Notes
- this change is intentionally focused on selection and presentation of
reachable addresses
- it does not attempt a broader virtual-adapter classification policy
beyond suppressing clearly low-value link-local addresses in user-facing
output

builds” by @pascalandr
- PR #260 “fix(ui): escape raw HTML in user prompt messages” by
@app/codenomadbot
## Highlights
- **Edit and save files directly in CodeNomad**: Update workspace files
in the built-in editor, save them without leaving the app, and get safer
handling for unsaved changes or edit conflicts.
- **More control over session automation**: Turn on per-session YOLO
mode from the Status tab, keep it visible with a clear badge, and let
long-running sessions continue auto-accepting prompts as expected.
- **Better voice conversation options**: Use spoken summary mode for
replies and keep conversation speech settings isolated per client, so
one device’s voice preferences do not unexpectedly affect another.
- **Faster session recovery**: Reload a session transcript from the
sidebar and see when a session is retrying, including live status
feedback.
## What’s Improved
- **Smoother desktop setup**: Desktop builds now bundle the right CLI
resources and handle microphone access more cleanly.
- **More reliable cross-platform desktop behavior**: Windows process
handling and npm invocation are safer, reducing environment-specific
issues.
- **Clearer session status visibility**: Retrying sessions now show more
useful state in the sidebar and header, so it is easier to tell what is
happening.
- **Cleaner in-app feedback**: Long toast messages wrap properly, GitHub
star counts display more cleanly, and message/code rendering behaves
more predictably.
## Fixes
- **Safer prompt rendering**: Raw HTML in user prompts is escaped so
messages display safely instead of being interpreted.
- **More reliable code previews**: Incomplete syntax highlighting
results are no longer cached, which helps prevent broken-looking file
views.
- **Better voice handoff**: Conversation playback stops when voice input
starts, avoiding overlapping speech.
- **More dependable desktop releases**: Native app versions now stay
aligned with package releases, and stale UI assets no longer shadow new
desktop builds.

## Summary
- prefer the bundled desktop UI over the downloaded cache when both
report the same version, so rebuilt installers do not keep serving stale
frontend assets
- rebuild the server workspace during the Tauri prebuild step on every
desktop package build, matching Electron's correctness boundary for
fresh UI/server assets
- add a regression test covering the equal-version bundled-vs-downloaded
UI selection path
## Why
- local desktop rebuilds should reflect the latest server and UI code
without requiring users to manually clear cached assets
- packaged updates should keep favoring the freshly bundled frontend
when the cached copy is not actually newer
## Testing
- node --import tsx --test
packages/server/src/ui/__tests__/remote-ui.test.ts
- npm run build:tauri
## Summary
- Adds file writing capability to Monaco editor in the file viewer
- Implements writeFile API on the server for workspace files
- Integrates save functionality into the file viewer UI with proper
state management
## Bug Fixes (Review Feedback)
- Fixed failed save discarding edits when switching files - now checks
save result and only proceeds if successful
- Fixed refresh overwriting dirty editor state - now prompts for
confirmation before discarding edits
- Fixed save button unable to save empty files - changed check from `if
(content)` to `if (content !== undefined && content !== null)`
- Added agent edit conflict detection - when agent edits file while user
has unsaved changes, shows conflict dialog with Overwrite/Cancel options
- Fixed dialog appearing behind unpinned sidebar - increased alert
dialog z-index to z-100

"perf(ui): lazy-load markdown and defer diff rendering" by
[@pascalandr](https://github.com/pascalandr)
## Highlights
- **Voice-first conversations**: Start prompts with voice input,
configure speech behavior from settings, and listen back to assistant
responses with message playback and conversation playback controls.
- **A complete Hebrew + RTL experience**: CodeNomad now ships with a
full Hebrew locale and much broader right-to-left support, making the
app feel natural for Hebrew users while improving Arabic text rendering
too.
- **A much faster experience in long chats**: The new virtualized
message list, deferred markdown and diff rendering, and more selective
loading for heavy UI surfaces make large sessions feel noticeably
smoother.
## What's Improved
- **More flexible speech controls**: Speech settings and playback modes
now adapt better to different browsers and platform capabilities.
- **Cleaner prompt workflow**: The prompt includes a quick clear action,
a simpler recording indicator, and a more polished mic control layout.
- **Faster startup and lighter heavy views**: Locale bundles, overlays,
right-panel viewers, picker flows, markdown, and diff surfaces all load
more lazily to reduce upfront UI work.
- **Less notification spam**: Subagent sessions no longer fire OS
notifications, so important interruptions are easier to notice.
- **Better RTL behavior across the whole interface**: Session names,
tool outputs, markdown blocks, file views, selectors, and layout
controls behave more consistently in right-to-left contexts.
## Fixes
- **More reliable Windows desktop behavior**: Process cleanup is
stronger during app shutdown, background CLI process trees are
terminated more reliably, desktop identity/metadata is aligned more
cleanly, and stray console windows are hidden during startup and exit.
- **Cleaner shutdown on macOS and Linux**: Desktop quit/close now stops
the spawned CLI process group more reliably, reducing leftover
background processes after exit.
- **Restored desktop actions**: External links in the folder picker work
again, and the desktop View/Window controls plus the fullscreen shortcut
are back.
- **More stable streaming and scrolling**: Reasoning streams stay pinned
more consistently, follow behavior is less jumpy, spacing is cleaner in
virtualized conversations, and session switching retains position more
smoothly.
- **Safer slash command pasting**: Pasted placeholders are resolved
correctly before slash commands run, so long pasted inputs behave like
normal prompts.
- **More dependable desktop packaging**: Tauri prebuild now refreshes
the server UI bundle correctly, which avoids packaged desktop builds
picking up stale UI assets.
- **Clearer speech compatibility handling**: Streaming playback
limitations are surfaced more cleanly instead of failing in a confusing
way.

## Summary
- add server-backed speech capabilities and transcription endpoints plus
UI settings for speech configuration
- add push-to-talk prompt voice input with microphone controls,
transcription insertion, and browser capability gating
- keep prompt controls aligned by restoring right-side nav placement and
moving the mic beside the expand control
### Summary of Improvements
This PR replaces the custom `IntersectionObserver`-based virtualization
with the `virtua` library to significantly improve rendering performance
and UI responsiveness.
### 🚀 Performance Results
Verified using `session-performance.test.ts`:
- **Rendering**: 2000 messages rendered in **16.90ms**.
- **Huge Conversation**: 10,000 messages processed in **0.80ms**.
- **Session Switching**: Average switch time reduced to **0.58ms**
(virtually zero lag).
### 🛠️ Key Changes
- **Virtualized Message Stream**: Integrated `virtua/solid` for
efficient windowing and automatic scroll compensation.
- **Floating Scroll Controls**: Applied `position: absolute` and
`pointer-events: none` to the list controls to ensure
scroll-to-top/bottom buttons float correctly over the message area
without blocking interactions.
- **Package Synchronization**: Updated `virtua` and SDK dependencies,
with a fully synchronized `package-lock.json` for stable builds.
### 🎥 UI Verification
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/24e483a3-8be6-4ac4-a431-d719f2015f4e
- **Smooth Scrolling**: Verified that rendering gaps are eliminated
during fast scrolls.
- **Position Retention**: Scroll positions are preserved when switching
between sessions.
> [!NOTE]
> Detailed performance gains and layout fixes are isolated to the
`virtua` implementation and core package updates, following the
requested cleanup.

Make server usage easier to discover from the root README, add local install/run instructions, and document additional CLI flags/env vars for UI and logging.
Add generic /api/storage config/state endpoints with merge-patch, migrate legacy YAML/JSON layout, and update UI/server to read and write owner-scoped settings. Replace config SSE events and drop /api/config routes.
Publish bleeding-edge builds from dev to GitHub prereleases and npm dist-tag 'dev'. Dev builds poll GitHub prereleases and surface update availability via /api/meta for UI notifications.
Default to HTTPS with optional loopback HTTP, generate/rotate self-signed certs via node-forge, and surface Local/Remote connection URLs. Update /api/meta schema, UI remote access overlay, and desktop shells to follow the new startup output.
Move PWA config into the default Vite build, ensure the PWA icon source is generated, and restrict Workbox caching to static assets only. Update server UI build wiring and clarify TLS requirements in docs.
Accept OpenCode SSE chunks shaped as { payload: { type, ... } } even when no directory is present, and attach directory when available to avoid dropping heartbeat events as malformed.
