 # Codex Panel App-Server Update
 
-Use this skill when Codex Panel needs to follow Codex CLI or experimental `codex app-server` API changes.
-
 ## Ground Rules
 
 - Treat `src/generated/app-server/` as generated output. Do not hand-edit generated bindings.
 - Use `docs/design.md` for app-server boundary and source-of-truth decisions before adding compatibility layers or product behavior.
 - Prefer current Codex CLI behavior over broad backward compatibility unless a concrete user need requires compatibility code.
 - Separate required compatibility fixes from optional cleanup or product improvements.
-- Do not rely on local Git hooks. Run required generation and verification commands explicitly.
 
 ## Procedure
 
-1. Read the README Compatibility section, `docs/design.md`, `docs/development.md`, `package.json`, and app-server-related source around requests, notifications, threads, approvals, runtime settings, hooks, and model listing.
-2. Compare the README Compatibility table's `codex.testedCliVersion` with the target `codex --version`.
-3. Check official Codex CLI or app-server release information when the target version is newer or behavior is uncertain.
-4. Regenerate bindings with `npm run generate:app-server-types`.
-5. Review generated diffs for protocol changes that affect runtime behavior. If mechanical normalization is needed, update the normalization code in `scripts/generate-app-server-types.mjs` and regenerate instead of patching generated files by hand.
-6. Implement only the compatibility changes needed for the target Codex CLI version.
-7. Update the README Compatibility table's `codex.testedCliVersion` only after validating against that version.
-8. Identify optional follow-ups separately from required compatibility work:
-   - API changes that allow removing compatibility shims, fallback code, or local workarounds.
-   - New routes, notifications, fields, or lifecycle signals that could simplify existing implementation.
-   - New app-server capabilities that could enable Codex Panel product improvements.
-9. Report optional follow-ups as proposals only, grouped separately from implemented required fixes unless the user explicitly asks to implement them.
+1. Read the README Compatibility section and the relevant design and development guidance, then trace the affected app-server paths.
+2. Confirm the recorded, installed, and target Codex CLI versions. Check official release information when behavior is uncertain.
+3. Regenerate bindings with `npm run generate:app-server-types`.
+4. Review generated diffs for protocol changes that affect runtime behavior. If mechanical normalization is needed, update the normalization code in `scripts/generate-app-server-types.mjs` and regenerate instead of patching generated files by hand.
+5. Implement only the required compatibility changes and record the target version after validating it.
+6. Report optional cleanup or product follow-ups separately; do not implement them unless requested.
 
 ## Verification
 
 - Run `npm run check` after regenerated bindings or compatibility changes.
-- If the change must be reflected in Obsidian, run `npm run build` and verify the plugin reload path separately.
-- Report the tested Codex CLI version, the generation command used, any app-server compatibility behavior that changed, and any optional simplification or feature proposals found.
+- Use the live Obsidian workflow when runtime behavior needs verification.

 # Codex Panel Obsidian Dev
 
-Use this skill for live Obsidian checks after building Codex Panel or when investigating behavior that unit tests cannot observe.
-
 ## Ground Rules
 
-- Work from the Codex Panel repository root.
 - Use `docs/development.md` for the build and generated-asset expectations before live Obsidian validation.
-- Treat `obsidian plugin:reload id=codex-panel`, `obsidian reload`, `obsidian restart`, `obsidian devtools`, `obsidian eval`, `obsidian dev:cdp`, and `obsidian dev:mobile` as state-changing or intrusive. Ask the user before running them.
-- Prefer read-only inspection first: `plugin`, `commands`, `dev:errors`, `dev:dom`, `dev:css`, `dev:console`, `dev:screenshot`, `version`.
-- If `dev:console` reports that the debugger is not attached, ask before running `obsidian dev:debug on`.
+- Ask before altering or reloading the live Obsidian session, attaching a debugger, or running intrusive evaluation or input commands.
+- Prefer read-only inspection before state-changing commands.
 - Do not clear console or error buffers unless the user approves; clearing can destroy useful failure context.

 ## Dynamic UI Investigations
 
-When checking behavior that depends on browser layout, asynchronous rendering, or virtualized DOM state, measure the live UI rather than inferring from unit tests alone.
-
-- Capture both the user-visible state and the underlying DOM metrics. Useful fields include `scrollTop`, `scrollHeight`, `clientHeight`, element bounding rects, rendered element counts, inline styles, and relevant computed styles.
-- For virtualized or asynchronously rendered regions, compare framework state against DOM state where possible, such as virtualizer total size versus actual `scrollHeight`, rendered item count versus data count, or pre-event versus post-frame measurements.
-- Prefer real input paths for input-sensitive bugs. Use `obsidian dev:cdp method=Input.dispatchMouseEvent ...` or focused keyboard events when a synthetic `dispatchEvent()` may skip browser/Electron behavior.
-- Record measurements before the action, immediately after the action, after at least one animation frame, and after a short timeout when layout, markdown rendering, resize observers, or virtualizer settle loops may run later.
-- If injecting temporary DOM probes with `obsidian eval`, remove them before finishing and re-check `dev:errors`. Avoid leaving long-running eval promises; use bounded `setTimeout`-based scripts that resolve.
-- Treat console instrumentation as temporary. Remove debug logging before final validation, and search the touched files for probe markers or conflict markers before reporting.
-
-## Common Checks
-
-- Confirm the loaded version and enabled state:
-
-  ```bash
-  obsidian plugin id=codex-panel
-  ```
-
-- List available Codex Panel commands:
-
-  ```bash
-  obsidian commands filter=codex-panel
-  ```
-
-- Count rendered elements:
-
-  ```bash
-  obsidian dev:dom selector=.codex-panel__composer total
-  ```
-
-- Inspect text, attributes, or computed styles:
-
-  ```bash
-  obsidian dev:dom selector=.codex-panel__composer text
-  obsidian dev:dom selector=.codex-panel__composer attr=aria-label
-  obsidian dev:dom selector=.codex-panel__composer css=display
-  obsidian dev:css selector=.codex-panel__composer
-  ```
-
-- Capture a screenshot for visual review:
-
-  ```bash
-  obsidian dev:screenshot path=<scratch-path>/codex-panel.png
-  ```
+When behavior depends on layout, asynchronous rendering, or virtualized DOM state, capture the visible state and relevant DOM metrics before and after the real input path, then again after rendering settles. Compare framework or data state with the DOM where possible. Remove temporary probes and instrumentation before final validation and re-check runtime errors.
 
 ## Reporting
 
-Report the commands run, whether Obsidian was reloaded, key `dev:errors` or `dev:console` findings, and any screenshot path produced. If a command was skipped because it required user approval, state that plainly.
+Report the observed behavior, runtime errors, intrusive actions taken, and evidence paths. State when an approval-gated check was skipped.

+`docs/release.md` is the public procedure and source of truth for the release command sequence. This skill adds agent-facing gates, review duties, and failure handling.
 
 ## Ground Rules
 
 - Read and follow `docs/release.md`; do not maintain a parallel release command sequence here.
-- Do not assume local Git hooks exist or ran. Run required verification commands explicitly.
 - Do not create GitHub Releases locally with `gh release create`; the tag-triggered GitHub Actions workflow owns release creation and asset attachment.
-- Keep internal validation notes, procedural details, and implementation reasoning out of release notes.
-- Release notes must be short, public-facing bullets under the single `## Changes` section required by `docs/release.md`.
+- Treat generated release notes as a draft. Review the full release diff and keep one short, public-facing `## Changes` section without internal or procedural detail.
 
 ## Delegation Procedure
 
-1. Read `docs/release.md`, `package.json`, `manifest.json`, `versions.json`, and existing `.github/release-notes/` files.
+1. Read `docs/release.md` and inspect the current version metadata and recent release notes.
 2. Identify the target release version and the commit range since the previous released tag.
-3. Follow the preparation step in `docs/release.md`.
-4. Draft `.github/release-notes/X.Y.Z.md` from the full diff since the previous released tag, not only the latest commit.
-5. Before committing, ask the user to approve the release version, release-note bullets, and included commit range.
-6. After approval, follow `docs/release.md` for the commit, preflight, tag, and push sequence.
-7. After pushing, let GitHub Actions create or update the GitHub Release.
+3. Inspect the full release diff, run preparation as documented, and edit the draft for completeness, accuracy, and user-facing wording.
+4. Before committing, ask the user to approve the release version, reviewed release-note bullets, and included commit range.
+5. After approval, follow `docs/release.md` through preflight, tag, and push. Let GitHub Actions create or update the GitHub Release.
 
 ## Failure Handling
 
-- If a release script or preflight fails, fix the cause and rerun the explicit failed command.
 - If the tag-triggered workflow fails before GitHub Release creation, use the repair procedure in `docs/release.md`.
 - If a GitHub Release already exists or was partially created, inspect the state before taking action; do not assume local asset upload is the right recovery path.

+## Working Principles
+
+- Start from evidence. Reproduce defects before fixing them; for product changes, reconstruct the current workflow, user need, alternatives, and losses before deciding what should change. Treat theoretical failure modes and reviewer agreement as hypotheses, not evidence of meaningful user or operational harm.

+4. Follow the turn in the panel, respond to requests when needed, and review any file changes before continuing.
 
-## Using Codex Panel
+If Obsidian cannot find `codex`, set **Settings -> Codex Panel -> Codex executable** to an absolute path such as `/opt/homebrew/bin/codex`.
 
-Each panel can keep a separate conversation, so related work can stay open side by side. Start fresh from the panel, reopen recent threads from the picker or panel history, or use the Threads view to see active work across the vault.
+## Working with Codex Panel
 
-The composer understands Obsidian links. It suggests vault files and recent notes, keeps wikilinks readable, includes linked files with your prompt, and opens file links from Codex replies back in Obsidian. Use `@active-note` or `@selection` to include the active note or current Markdown selection without pasting it manually. Paste or drop files to save them in the attachment folder and reference them from the same prompt.
+### Keep work separate or pick it up later
 
-Completions cover slash commands, `$skill-name` skills, recent threads, models, and reasoning levels. Use `/help` for the current command list.
+A panel is an independent working surface with its own active thread and draft. Open multiple panels when different tasks should stay visible and separate. Regular Codex threads remain available after a panel closes; return to them from **Codex Panel: Open thread...**, panel history, or the Threads view.
 
-While a turn is running, the panel streams the conversation, reasoning, tool activity, file changes, plans, and agent activity. You can answer Codex questions, approve commands, respond to requests, steer or interrupt the turn, and manage active goals above the message stream.
+For a one-off question alongside the current thread, use `/btw` to open a temporary side chat. To carry context between regular threads without merging their histories, use `/refer <thread> <message>`. The submitted message keeps a normal link to the referenced thread; clicking it opens the thread in an available Codex Panel, creating one when needed.
 
-When Codex changes files, open an Obsidian diff view to review the changes and copy the patch. For a focused note edit, select Markdown text and run **Codex Panel: Rewrite selection** to ask Codex for a replacement and review a selection-scoped diff before applying it.
+### Bring in the right context
 
-Use the toolbar, composer status row, or slash commands to inspect usage, adjust turn settings, and check Codex connection details.
+The composer lets you point Codex to relevant material without pasting it into the prompt. Type wikilinks to reference vault files while keeping their names readable. Use `@active` for the active file or `@selection` for the current Markdown selection.
 
-Threads can be archived as Markdown notes with a configurable folder, filename template, and tags. You can also archive without saving, then restore or permanently delete archived threads from settings.
+When Obsidian Daily Notes or the daily section of Periodic Notes is enabled, `@today`, `@tomorrow`, and `@yesterday` resolve through its folder and date format. Paste or drop files to save them in the configured attachment folder and reference them from the same prompt. For material outside the vault, `/web <url> [message]` fetches readable page content and attaches it to the next turn without creating a note.
+
+### Guide a running turn
+
+As a turn runs, the panel keeps the conversation together with requests that need your attention. You can answer questions, approve or reject actions, steer the turn with another message, or interrupt it. Plans, goals, tool activity, and agent work remain available when you need to inspect how the task is progressing.
+
+### Review and keep the result
+
+When Codex changes files, open the Obsidian diff view to review the changes and copy the patch. For a focused edit, select Markdown text and run **Codex Panel: Rewrite selection** to request a replacement and review a selection-scoped diff before applying it.

+Runtime UI composition is Preact-owned. Preact components should render the panel shell, toolbar, thread stream, composer, and request controls.

+Thread lifecycle changes should be projected from completed operation facts into the shared read model. When one user action changes multiple visible projections, publish them coherently without delaying live operational state or coupling independent panels.

 ## Interaction Principles
 
 Multiple panels are separate Obsidian leaves. Treat each panel as its own Codex working surface with independent connection, thread, turn state, composer, and pending requests.
 
-Thread history, archived state, forks, catalog snapshots, and other app-server resources should follow app-server semantics. Panel-side views are read models over app-server snapshots and lifecycle events; stale or partial refreshes must not overwrite newer state. Obsidian integrations such as archive note export are convenience views of Codex state, not replacements for Codex history.
+Long-running actions must preserve the user intent that started them. Panel-local results may affect a panel only while that intent still owns its target; Codex facts completed in the current app-server context remain shared truth even if the initiating panel has moved on.
+
+Coordinate conflicting work at the narrowest shared semantic owner. Independent panels should not block one another, and stale reads or writes must not overwrite newer shared state. Coalesce work only when replacement is part of the operation's meaning.
+
+Foreground reveal and focus are the narrow workspace-wide exception: the latest user intent wins without serializing unrelated panel or app-server work. Cleanup obligations created by a committed state transition must survive the UI action that initiated them.
+
+Do not use explanatory copy as the default remedy for an unclear or incoherent interface. Before adding instructions, warnings, status text, validation messages, confirmations, or diagnostics, determine why the interface does not communicate the necessary behavior through its structure and state. Prefer improving information hierarchy, labels, defaults, available choices, affordances, validation timing, progress indication, and feedback. Add text only when irreducible information remains and it materially helps the user decide, act, or recover; do not expose implementation concepts merely because they explain the current behavior.
+
+Subagent threads opened from agent activity remain persistent and restorable but stay outside ordinary thread history. Use the app-server direct-input capability when available, falling back to read-only subagent panels for older servers, while preserving parent and agent provenance for other specialized behavior.
+
+Mode-derived restrictions for the active panel thread must remain consistent across actions and UI. Keep connection state, turn busy state, and operations targeting another listed thread in their owning workflows.
+
+Thread history and other app-server resources should follow app-server semantics. Panel-side views are read models over app-server snapshots and lifecycle events; stale or partial refreshes must not overwrite newer state. Obsidian integrations such as archive note export are convenience views, not replacements for Codex history.
+
+Routine thread lists should load a bounded recent set and paginate older threads on demand instead of eagerly fetching complete inventories.
 
 Selection rewrite is intentionally scoped to a focused edit-and-review workflow. Avoid expanding it into a broader writing assistant without a separate design decision.
 
 Server requests should become panel UI only when the user can naturally answer them in context. Unknown or unsupported requests should stay diagnostic instead of pretending to be normal conversation text.

 ## Placement Rules
 
-The source tree is organized by implementation ownership, not by the single Obsidian plugin entrypoint. Put behavior where its reason to change lives: app-server protocol adaptation at the app-server boundary, app-server-independent domain models in domain code, cross-feature reusable adapters and primitives under `src/shared/`, and feature workflows under their owning feature. Keep shared subfolders named by the boundary or primitive they own, such as DOM, Obsidian, runtime, or UI rendering.
+Follow the ownership boundaries in `docs/design.md` and the import and source-shape lint rules. Put behavior where its reason to change lives, and update the lint policy and its tests when intentionally changing a boundary.
 
-Within chat, keep state transitions and workflow orchestration separate from app-server adaptation, session/Obsidian wiring, and rendering surfaces. Tests should mirror the ownership boundary of the code under test.
-
-Keep new code near the state or API it owns. A feature may import another feature only for a capability that feature owns. When moving behavior across an ownership boundary or adding a new shared classification, update the lint policy and its tests with that boundary in the same change.
-
-Generated app-server types should stay behind app-server connection and protocol adapter modules. If domain, shared code, settings, workspace, or feature code needs app-server data, add or reuse a panel-owned projection at the boundary instead of importing generated payload types directly.
-
-Chat application workflows should receive chat-owned contracts, not root `src/app-server/` modules or direct `AppServerClient` access. Keep app-server access, connection freshness checks, vault-path injection, and payload projection in `src/features/chat/app-server/` transports or host-owned wiring.
-
-Chat panel-visible state belongs in `ChatStateStore` and should flow through named reducer actions and the panel read model adapter. Use Preact Signals only in chat panel rendering adapters such as the shell read model and surface projections. When a surface needs fewer dependencies, narrow the read model instead of passing broad reducer slices.
-
-Chat feature dependencies should flow from pure workflow and meaning code toward owned adapters and render surfaces. Lower layers must not reach into host/session wiring, panel internals, or UI implementation details.
-
-Chat modules should not import `src/workspace/` directly; workspace operations enter chat through host contracts, while workspace modules may coordinate concrete Obsidian chat views.
-
-Use DOM reads, writes, measurements, hit-tests, focus/selection operations, and DOM event listener wiring only from explicit bridge modules, Obsidian-owned API boundaries, or rendering and measurement code that cannot be expressed cleanly as Preact components. Normal modules may keep refs and call named adapters, but they should not interpret DOM structure or layout directly. Name bridge files with a `.dom`, `.obsidian`, or `.measure` suffix.
-
-Use `.tsx` only where the module owns rendering or a host rendering bridge. Non-rendering source should use `.ts`; when a new rendering-owned location is intentional, update the source-shape lint policy and its tests rather than relying on convention alone.
+Keep generated protocol types behind app-server adapters and expose panel-owned contracts or projections to features. Keep direct DOM work in explicit bridge, measurement, or rendering modules; use the established filename suffixes for those boundaries and reserve `.tsx` for rendering.
 
 ## CSS Rules
 
 CSS should stay native to Obsidian. Prefer Obsidian variables and Codex Panel tokens for color, typography, spacing, and layout dimensions instead of hardcoded values.
 
-Keep selectors shallow and specific to Codex Panel classes. Avoid broad invalidation patterns such as `:has()`, hidden specificity inside `:where()`, IDs, and universal selectors. Keep needed type selectors under Codex Panel-owned class roots for Obsidian-rendered or semantic child DOM. Add new authored CSS files to `src/styles/order.json`, and remove unused or test-only `codex-panel` classes instead of keeping dead styles.
+Keep selectors shallow and scoped to Codex Panel classes. Add new authored CSS files to `src/styles/order.json`, and remove unused or test-only classes.
 
 ## Naming Conventions
 
-Name modules by responsibility: use `Controller` only for stateful lifecycle/control surfaces, `Handler` for inbound event or request entrypoints, `Actions` for caller-facing command or callback bundles without lifecycle ownership, `Coordinator` for stateful background or cross-surface coordination, `Service` for reusable domain capabilities, `Presenter` for UI state projection, `Renderer` for render-only UI contracts, and `Host`/`Ports` for dependency boundary objects. Use `State`, `Snapshot`, `Projection`, `ViewModel`, `Options`, `Context`, `Result`, `Target`, `Capabilities`, or `ActionTargets` for passive value objects; do not use `Actions` for passive values. Use boundary/infrastructure nouns such as `Client`, `Transport`, `Cache`, `Store`, `Catalog`, `Manager`, `Bridge`, `Tracker`, `Session`, `Runtime`, `Provider`, or `Adapter` only when the object owns that concrete boundary or lifecycle role.
+Name modules by owned responsibility. Use lifecycle or boundary nouns only when the object owns that lifecycle or boundary, and passive-data names for values.
 
-Prefer functions and factory-created objects over classes. Use a class only when it owns mutable lifecycle/resource state, extends or implements an external class-based API such as Obsidian views/modals/tabs, or represents an `Error`; do not use a class merely to group pure functions or dependencies.
+Prefer functions and factories. Reserve classes for mutable resource ownership, external class APIs, and `Error` types.
 
 ## Common Pitfalls
 
 - Build before Obsidian validation. Obsidian loads ignored root assets, not the TypeScript or authored CSS sources directly.
 - Preserve last-known-good app-server state on refresh failure. Do not turn disconnected reads into authoritative empty thread lists, settings snapshots, hook inventories, or diagnostics.
 - Normalize optional and nullable app-server values before display. Users should not see raw `undefined`, `null`, protocol enum gaps, or fallback labels that imply Panel owns a Codex runtime setting.
-- Do not use DOM order as message history state. Message stream DOM is a presentation surface, and delayed Markdown rendering can change heights after initial render.
+- Do not use DOM order as thread history state. Thread stream DOM is a presentation surface, and delayed Markdown rendering can change heights after initial render.
 
 ## API Baselines
 
-Use the local API baseline report when checking whether the development environment matches the supported API policy:
-
 ```sh
 npm run api:baseline
 ```
 
 Obsidian runtime compatibility is declared through `manifest.json` and `versions.json`. The `obsidian` npm package provides compile-time TypeScript API definitions; it is not runtime validation for an Obsidian app-version matrix. Because the project does not run app-version smoke tests, keep the API type package in the same minor as `manifest.minAppVersion` and use the latest patch in that minor for local type checking. `npm run api:baseline` exits non-zero when the local environment or recorded baselines drift. Raise `manifest.minAppVersion` only when intentionally adopting a newer Obsidian app/API minor.
 
-Codex app-server compatibility is managed by Codex CLI minor version. README records the tested Codex CLI patch version, and the baseline check verifies that the local `codex --version` is in the same minor before app-server binding or compatibility work.
+Codex app-server compatibility is managed by CLI minor version. `src/app-server/connection/compatibility.json` is the source of truth for the exact generation patch and app-server capabilities; README displays that patch.
+
+Local compatibility work should run `npm run api:baseline` and `npm run generate:app-server-types:check`; CI runs the same verification with the recorded CLI.
