The settings section gains the conversational authoring entry beside
copying: a dashed add-card (the Models page's affordance) that stages the
self-referential cordis preset and starts a new session on it, closing the
settings panel through the shell's new section owner-prop `close` — the
one shell affordance a section receives, for flows that leave settings.
The seat learns the difference between picking and staging: `select()`'s
immediate apply meets the still-current running session and drops the
stage as unservable, so the entry uses `stage()` and leaves the apply to
the list-change applier that fires when the started session becomes
current. `load()` stops regressing the display when its reply lands after
an applied stage was consumed — staged pick first, then the composition
the current session already carries, then the deployment default.
The authoring lane connects a workspace and drives the gesture to a
composed host session; the section goldens gain the entry.
The web YAML editor is gone. agentPreset.write (arbitrary composition
text) became agentPreset.copy { from, agentPreset, name? }: a host-side
whole-directory copy of ids the host resolves itself — symlinks
dereferenced, modes re-tightened to owner-only with owner-execute kept,
metadata rewritten to keep the source's description but never its name or
roster order. No composition text or path crosses the wire in either
authoring direction, and the entryListSchema/!!js concern dissolves with
assertComposition itself.
The settings section becomes: a read-only viewer over shipped
compositions, a copy dialog (id + optional display name) as the only
create entry, delete for custom rows, and a location action leading into
the preset's own files — agentPreset.openDocument { agentPreset } resolves
the directory host-side and opens it natively, or answers
{ opened: false, path } for the row to show as text where the deployment
has no desktop. agentPreset.list reports hasDocument beside authorable;
the gateway's nativeOpen config pins the capability where
canOpenNativePath platform detection would mislead. The privileged set is
now read/copy/openDocument/remove.
With files as the only composition editor, standing mounts grew
stamp-keyed generations: ensureStanding compares the composition file's
mtime+size and starts the next generation for later sessions, while every
joined session keeps the generation it runs on.
New keyless web lane (agent-preset-authoring, overlay pins
nativeOpen: false so goldens render one branch on every platform) drives
view/copy/reveal/delete end to end; the real-composition CLI e2e switches
to copy semantics.
