Stacked on #871. These fix review findings that were left open when #838…#871 merged. Each one was checked against #871's tip before fixing.

Changes

  • Startup no longer hangs on a failed storage move (#871 finding). The agents2 → agents localStorage move runs before React mounts, so a throw left Buzz on "Opening Buzz" on every launch. Now a conflicting destination or a failed write is logged and skipped, and the source key stays so a later launch can retry. docs/agents.md already says such conflicts are reported as errors and the destination is left intact.
  • Failure replies no longer wake sibling agents (#865 finding). When a turn fails, Claude Code posts a reply through report() and Codex through publish() (also used for status replies). Both used to tag whoever asked. When the asker was a sibling agent, that owner-attested reply woke the sibling. Two agents that failed the same way, for example on a shared usage limit, then woke each other indefinitely at a rate under the admission cap. The replies now tag agent.owner. Both runtimes only accept non-timer triggers that pass fromOwner, so for runs the owner started the tag is unchanged.
  • The collapsed quiet line keeps its toggle in the Tab order (#865 finding). Opening a link to a message sets tabIndex=-1 on that message's anchor. On a collapsed quiet line the anchor was the toggle button, so after a link the toggle could no longer be reached with Tab. The anchor is now the line's entry wrapper, the same way ordinary rows work. The toggle also gets its own :focus-visible ring in the line's styles (Codex finding).
  • Session viewer (Add live agent session viewer and recorded context #855):
    • A Claude send shows as "posted to Buzz" only once its tool result confirms success. Failed and pending sends stay as tool rows with their result (finding).
    • Pressing a timing segment from the keyboard now jumps to its record (finding).
    • /state no longer sends the unused raw transcript on every 1s poll (finding). On a 54 MB Codex session the raw transcript was about 70% of the payload.

Not included: #887, which restores model and effort picks after a failed attachment send. The open follow-up PRs #878, #879 and #889 are unchanged.

Validation

  • At f55e6b6: pnpm check is clean, the full Vitest suite passes (580 files, 8246 tests), and the node integration tests pass (204).
  • Each new regression test fails without its fix and passes with it:
    • Claude: a sibling's failed turn tags the owner.
    • Codex: a sibling's failed turn tags the owner.
    • Migration: a conflict or failed write no longer throws, and the source is kept.
    • Quiet line: the collapsed anchor is the wrapper, not the button.
    • Claude export: confirmed, failed and pending sends.
  • Session viewer, run headless with Chromium on a past local Claude session: pressing Enter on a focused segment scrolls to and flashes its record, and the old client does not. /state has no raw.
  • An independent agent review of the diff and its call sites found no blockers.
  • Deferred: a run in the live app (keyboard reveal of a quiet line in both themes) and a human test.

fix(agents2): keep agents running when another community is selected
769892f 
Agents2 listened only to the selected community, and the Claude Code and
Codex runtimes stopped the processes of agents that left that list, so
switching communities killed work mid-turn and left the other community
unheard.

Agents2 now binds each joined community the viewer has an agent in (opened
through a new Communities.open, without selecting it), delivers each
community's live events only to its own agents, and exposes the running
agents and each agent's community connection. The runtimes keep processes
for every running agent and read conversations, names and memory from the
agent's own community. Processes stop when the agent is deleted, its
community is left or disconnected, or the viewer signs out.

fix(agents2): retry a failed unselected community connection
9011eb8 
A first connect that fails leaves the session in error, and only the
selected community has a Retry the viewer can press. Agents2 now tries an
unselected community's failed connection again every 30 seconds, so its
agents recover without the viewer opening it. Also covers
Communities.open directly.

perf(claude-code): one shared spare process instead of one per agent
cb99f1c 
Each Claude Code agent kept its own warm `claude` process and up to six
processes in all. With agents in many communities kept running, that is
one idle ~300 MB process per agent.

Starting the process is what a spare saves (time to turn start ~530ms cold
vs ~45ms warm, measured against claude 2.1.296); sending `initialize`
costs almost nothing. So the spare is now spawned without `initialize`,
fixing only its folder and model, and the agent that takes it sends its
own prompt and installs its own tool handler. One spare serves every
agent; it follows the latest new conversation, and is replaced when no
agent runs where it was started. The per-agent process cap is removed.

fix(claude-code): only the runtime decides where a spare is kept
c06f6b5 
A conversation whose launch finished after its last agent was removed
took the spare and started a replacement, which then stayed with no
agents. Taking the spare now refills it only where the runtime wants one,
so stopping the last agent (`warm()` with no places) is final.

fix(agents2): end agent lifetimes on teardown and inventory errors
10ddcc8 
- A native agent list still being read when Agents2 stops is now stale,
  so it cannot reopen agent communities after teardown.
- Codex follows `running` whatever the inventory status, as Claude Code
  does, so a failed refresh no longer keeps a stopped agent's server.

perf(codex): one app-server for every agent
fafa5d6 
Codex agents each kept their own `codex app-server` (~300-400 MB with its
MCP children) until the agent stopped running. With agents now running
in every joined community, that cost grew with every Codex agent used.

Everything agent-specific already travels with the thread: cwd,
developer instructions and dynamic tools go in thread/start, and tool
calls carry their threadId. So the runtime now owns one server, opened
on first use in ~/.buzz, and finds a tool call's agent by thread and
turn across all agents. Entries keep their conversations and saved
bindings but no longer own a process.

A stopped agent can no longer take its process down with it, so it
interrupts its own turns, then cleans the background shells its threads
left (a dev server from a finished turn, say). Starting the same agent
again waits for that, so it never resumes a thread mid-teardown. The
server ends with the last Codex agent, on dispose, or on a crash (the
next mention reopens it).

live.mjs passed the relay as an object since the per-agent relay
change; it now passes a function, expands ~ like the desktop host, and
checks two agents on one real server.

[session-debug] live agent session viewer
da93663 
`bin/node scripts/session-debug.mjs '<thread>'` serves a loopback page that
follows a Codex or Claude Code transcript as it is written. The left rail is a
vertical wall-time chart: inference, tool waits and their overlap, gaps nobody
is accounted for, and idle time between runs, with each call's new tokens
marked beside it. A grey band shows which part of the session is on screen.
The conversation shows one harness/model/effort line, compact tool rows, and
messages posted to Buzz as cards, so text the agent never sent stands out.

Claude Code's zero-usage `<synthetic>` resume replies and queue bookkeeping no
longer count as activity, which had been inflating inference time. The
standalone exporters pick up the same tool rows and posted-message cards.

Started by codex00; chart and conversation design by claude00.

[session-debug-context] show recorded prompt, tools and injected context
a7a305e 
The session page hid every instructions entry, so even Codex's recorded base
instructions and dynamic tools never appeared. Model-visible context now shows
as quiet collapsed rows where it was recorded, without a proxy:

- Claude: the system prompt and tool schemas from Claude Code's
  `prompt_snapshot` records, one disclosure per tool. Each snapshot pair counts
  as one, and repeats only show when the prompt or tools change. Every injected
  reminder (environment, skills, CLAUDE.md, hook context) is shown with its
  rendered text and role.
- Codex: base instructions, dynamic tools per tool, run settings from
  `turn_context` whenever they change, and developer/AGENTS.md context named
  by its tag.

A one-line reminder also shows inline, such as the token count. Request
framing, Claude's deferred tool schemas and Codex's native tool schemas are
not recorded, and the page says so.

430392d 
…page

Browser fixtures scan every HTML file under the repo root, and
scripts/session-debug.html imported "client.js", which only the
inspector's own server maps to a real file. The scan failed, Vite
skipped pre-bundling and re-optimized mid-test, and the reloads broke
browser journeys across both engines. The page now names its files as
they are on disk and the server serves them under those names, so the
vite.config.ts exclusion (which fixture servers never read) goes away.

[model] pick a mentioned agent's model and effort for its next run
c41320f 
Mentioning your own Claude Code or Codex agent shows a gauge in the
composer. Its popover is an effort slider with the model name in the
slider's tab; the name opens a compact menu of the agent's models. The
pick rides on that message as `model` and `effort` tags for that agent,
and the host honors them only from the owner and only for listed models
and levels.

- Codex passes the pick to `turn/start` for that turn only.
- Claude Code lists models from `initialize`, sends `set_model` and
  `apply_flag_settings` ahead of the picked turn, and restores its own
  on the next unpicked one.
- The slider opens at the effort an unpicked run uses (Claude Code's
  session effort, Codex's configured effort or the model's default);
  moving back to it is no pick.
- A configured Codex model its CLI does not list keeps the picker, with
  the listed models still pickable.

[agents2-adopt] bring over agents from earlier agent systems
aa2cf6b 
Agents2 can now take over an identity that the harness controller or
old Buzz (installed or dev) saved on this machine. It keeps the key,
name and picture, and leaves the instructions and settings behind.
Neither old store is written.

- port.rs lists both stores as one flat list, one entry per key. The
  harness copy wins because its key is already in this app's store.
  It also re-reads an identity and its key at take-over time.
- AppAgents::adopt is prepare with an existing key. When a harness
  agent saved for the same community already holds the key under the
  same credential ID, commit shares that key and never adds or
  withdraws it. Without this, a failed add would have deleted the
  harness copy.
- An adopted agent keeps the profile its community already has.
  Without one, it publishes the name and picture it brought. If the
  read fails, it overwrites nothing until the agent is renamed.
  Agents2 profiles gain an optional picture.
- Adds a "Bring over" side panel on the Agents2 page.

A rename republished an adopted agent's profile with only its name, bot

reads the community's current profile and changes only the name and bot
flag, adding the picture only where there is none.

[agents2] set an agent's picture from the build view
c3f4fbe 
Agents2 had no way to set a picture, and its grid, peek and build view
passed raw relay media URLs straight to <img>, which community media
refuses without the media proxy, so even agents brought over with a
picture showed initials.

AppAgents::set_picture (app_agent_set_picture) saves or clears an HTTPS
picture; Agents2.save takes { picture } and republishes the profile
through the existing refresh. The build view's identity rail uses the
shared AvatarEditor (uploads as the owner, like your own profile), and
every agent portrait goes through useAvatarPreview.

feat(agents2): react 👀 💬 to a mention while its agent works
c5bdc7e 
Until Agents2 agents show as typing, the host reacts to a mention as the
agent with 👀 and 💬 when its run starts, and deletes both once the run and
the work it handed off have settled (at most the longest run allowed).

Plugins return from `run` early and finish their turns in the background,
so `Delivery.workingUntil(done)` lets them say when that work settles.
Claude Code and Codex now call it. The reactions live in
working-reactions.ts and its one call in the service, so they can be
deleted once typing indicators ship; `workingUntil` stays for those.

Both types now answer the owner and any agent whose message carries the
owner's NIP-OA attestation, and nobody else; the Answers setting is

anywhere, including in reply to it. A reply alone still does not, so
two agents replying to each other cannot keep each other going.

team leaves its agents alone, and a deleted agent leaves every team.

Each run passes the agent a section per team it is on: the team's name,
every member's name and npub (marking the agent itself), and the team's
instructions. Claude adds it after the agent's own instructions in the
system prompt, so a change resumes idle sessions with the new prompt;
Codex sends it with the per-turn instructions.

The Agents2 page gets a Teams side panel to create, edit and delete teams.

feat(channels): add a team of agents from the members dialog
61fb5a8 
Typing in the channel members search now also matches the owner's Agents2
teams by name. Each matching team with members not yet in the channel is
offered with an "Add team" button that adds those members through the same
per-member additions, so a failed one shows its own error and Retry.

Only team members that are agents in this community are added or shown.

feat(channels): bring back channel templates on Agents2 teams
dabe7b4 
A channel template is a name, the Agents2 teams a new channel starts with
and a starting Canvas, saved on this device in buzz.channel-templates.v1
like teams are. Settings > Channel templates creates, edits and deletes
them.

Create channel offers a Template select when any exist. Picking one adds
each member of its teams that is the owner's agent in this community, and
seeds the Canvas, through the existing channel setup, so the session still
owns applying, confirming and retrying it. A team deleted since is skipped.

Update Channels browser fixtures for Agents teams
fc6c53d 
Provide the new Agents dependency in isolated Channels fixtures and include Channel templates in Settings keyboard traversal. Existing assertions remain intact: channel completion, packed conversation integration, and Settings pass in Chromium and WebKit (22 cases).

refactor(agents): rename Agents2 to Agents
bff589e 
v1 Agents is gone, so Agents2 takes the plain name: `features/agents2`
and `bundled/agents2` move into `features/agents` and `bundled/agents`,
the plugin is `buzz.agents` with page `agents`, the injected service is
`agents`, and types, hooks, docs and labels drop the 2.

Saved data keeps the Agents2 names, so existing agents carry over and
earlier builds running alongside still find them: the
`agents2/identities.json` app data folder and the `buzz.agents2.v1` and
`buzz.agents2.teams.v1` local storage keys. The plugin's on/off switch
stays under `buzz.agents2` on desktop and web, which also keeps a
leftover v1 `buzz.agents` switch from turning the new Agents off.

Migrate Agents2 storage to Agents at startup
4e5312b 
Move identity directories and browser settings once, convert the plugin switch while discarding the retired v1 preference, and keep normal reads and writes on Agents names. Isolate temporary migration code with an October 18 removal checklist.

fix(agents): address leftover review findings from the agents stack
f55e6b6 
- Startup: a conflicting or failed agents2 storage move is logged and
  skipped instead of throwing before React mounts, which left Buzz on
  "Opening Buzz" every launch. The source key stays for a later launch.
- Runtimes: automatic failure and status replies from Claude Code and
  Codex tag the owner instead of the asker. A sibling asker was woken by
  the tag, so two agents failing alike woke each other without end.
- Quiet lines: the collapsed scroll anchor moves from the toggle button
  to its entry, so revealing a linked message no longer takes the toggle
  out of the Tab order; the toggle gets the owner-level focus ring.
- Session viewer: a Claude send shows as posted only once its result
  confirms it; failed and pending sends stay tool rows. Keyboard
  activation of a timing segment jumps to its record. /state no longer
  ships the unused raw transcript every poll.
