Summary
AI summaryFloating terminals now open in resizable windows above the board and setup commands run before Claude starts.
Full changelog
This release turns a round of real user feedback into a more direct day-to-day
board: terminals no longer cover the fleet, standalone shells and visible setup
commands make workspace bring-up useful beyond Claude itself, dead cards can be
dismissed one at a time, and stalled launches now show what was actually left on
the pane. Repository spawns also learn a durable default organization, including
Coder's textemma seed and GitLab subgroup inference.
Added
- Floating live terminals. A terminal now opens in a draggable, resizable
window above the board, can be minimized to a dock chip without dropping its
WebSocket, remembers its position, and falls back to the full-screen viewer on
small/touch displays. The terminal keeps keyboard focus visually explicit so
board permission shortcuts cannot be mistaken for input sent to the pane. - In-board help. A
?overlay documents keyboard shortcuts, card and header
actions, and orchestrator command grammar. Compose now includes compact,
clickable examples for broadcast, assign, ticket, and name commands. - Standalone shell sessions. Spawn a shell without Claude, or open a new shell
in any card's workspace. Shell cards remain terminal-first, can be killed
directly, never receive fleet mail, and are excluded from orchestrator routing. - Visible setup commands before Claude starts. Repo and directory spawns can
run an explicit setup command in the pane after materialization and before
launching Claude. Per-repository defaults can be saved; a failing setup remains
visible and prevents Claude from starting, while revive intentionally skips
setup for an already-materialized workspace. - Default organizations for bare repository names. A bare
repocan resolve
through a persisted or environment-provided namespace. Coder workspaces seed
textemma; multi-segment group paths infer GitLab when no host was supplied;
explicit hosts still win or fail loudly. Namespace validation prevents URL and
scp delimiters from changing the requested clone target. - Registration-stall diagnostics. When a spawned pane never registers, Fleet
Deck captures a redacted, UTF-8-safe, byte-bounded tail of the pane and exposes
it in the card and Drawer, making setup errors, trust prompts, and environment
failures diagnosable without opening the terminal. - Per-card dismissal. Individual offline sessions can be removed without
clearing every tombstone. Revivable cards require a second confirmation, and
dismissal keeps their worktrees available in the Worktrees view.
Fixed
- Copy shortcuts no longer open Compose. Modified key chords are excluded
from board hotkeys, so Command/Ctrl+C and ordinary copy/paste work normally. - A vanished pane is reported as an ended agent, not a refused viewer. The
terminal WebSocket sends a clean exit frame and triggers liveness reconciliation
when the database still says live but tmux has already removed the pane. - Cold-start hooks authenticate the first registration. SessionStart now
rereads the bearer token minted by a daemon it just started, so the first card
and roster brief are no longer silently lost on a fresh home. - Shell/setup isolation stays inside Fleet Deck.
remain-on-exitis scoped to
the fleet tmux session rather than the shared server, shell sessions cannot
become mail or auto-assignment black holes, and the liveness watchdog recognizes
legitimate shell/setup phases instead of condemning them as dead Claude panes. - The release smoke test is genuinely isolated. It uses a unique temporary
home, dedicated port and tmux socket, authenticated hooks, exactly two workers,
process-group cleanup, verified graceful daemon shutdown, and never stops the
live board on port 4711.
