- Add AgentTracker class for parsing agent output and emitting updates
- Add browser isolation with --isolated flag for Playwright MCP
- Extend WebSocket protocol with agent_update messages and log attribution

- Fix WSProgressMessage to include in_progress field
New UI Components:
- AgentMissionControl: Dashboard showing active agents with collapsible activity
- AgentCard: Individual agent status with avatar and thought bubble
- AgentAvatar: SVG mascots (Spark, Fizz, Octo, Hoot, Buzz) with animations
- ActivityFeed: Recent activity stream with stable keys (no flickering)
- CelebrationOverlay: Confetti animation with click/Escape dismiss
- DependencyGraph: Interactive node graph visualization with dagre layout
- DependencyBadge: Visual indicator for feature dependencies
- ViewToggle: Switch between Kanban and Graph views
- KeyboardShortcutsHelp: Help overlay accessible via ? key
UI/UX Improvements:
- Celebration queue system to handle rapid success messages
- Accessibility attributes on AgentAvatar (role, aria-label, aria-live)
- Collapsible Recent Activity section with persisted preference
- Agent count display in header
- Keyboard shortcut G to toggle Kanban/Graph view
- Real-time thought bubbles and state animations
Bug Fixes:
- Fix circular dependency validation (swapped source/target arguments)
- Add MAX_CLAIM_RETRIES=10 to prevent stack overflow under contention
- Fix THOUGHT_PATTERNS to match actual [Tool: name] format
- Fix ActivityFeed key prop to prevent re-renders on new items
- Add featureId/agentIndex to log messages for proper attribution

Add new features for interactive terminal sessions and dev server control:
Terminal Component:
- New Terminal.tsx component using xterm.js for full terminal emulation
- WebSocket-based PTY communication with bidirectional I/O
- Cross-platform support (Windows via winpty, Unix via built-in pty)
- Auto-reconnection with exponential backoff
- Fix duplicate WebSocket connection bug by checking CONNECTING state
- Add manual close flag to prevent auto-reconnect race conditions
- Add project tracking to avoid duplicate connects on initial activation
Dev Server Management:
- New DevServerControl.tsx for starting/stopping dev servers
- DevServerManager service for subprocess management
- WebSocket streaming of dev server output
- Project configuration service for reading package.json scripts
Backend Infrastructure:
- Terminal router with WebSocket endpoint for PTY I/O
- DevServer router for server lifecycle management
- Terminal session manager with callback-based output streaming
- Enhanced WebSocket schemas for terminal and dev server messages
UI Integration:
- New Terminal and Dev Server tabs in the main application
- Updated DebugLogViewer with improved UI and functionality
- Extended useWebSocket hook for terminal message handling

This major update replaces the fixed `generations/` directory with support
for storing projects in any directory on the filesystem. Projects are now
tracked via a cross-platform registry system.
## New Features
### Project Registry (`registry.py`)
- Cross-platform registry storing project name-to-path mappings
- Platform-specific config locations:
- Windows: %APPDATA%\autonomous-coder\projects.json
- macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/autonomous-coder/projects.json
- Linux: ~/.config/autonomous-coder/projects.json
- POSIX path format for cross-platform compatibility
- File locking for concurrent access safety (fcntl/msvcrt)
- Atomic writes via temp file + rename to prevent corruption
- Fixed Windows file locking issue with tempfile.mkstemp()
### Filesystem Browser API (`server/routers/filesystem.py`)
- REST endpoints for browsing directories server-side
- Cross-platform support with blocked system paths:
- Windows: C:\Windows, Program Files, ProgramData, etc.
- macOS: /System, /Library, /private, etc.
- Linux: /etc, /var, /usr, /bin, etc.
- Universal blocked paths: .ssh, .aws, .gnupg, .docker, etc.
- Hidden file detection (Unix dot-prefix + Windows attributes)
- UNC path blocking for security
- Windows drive enumeration via ctypes
- Directory creation with validation
- Added `has_children` field to DirectoryEntry schema
### UI Folder Browser (`ui/src/components/FolderBrowser.tsx`)
- React component for selecting project directories
- Breadcrumb navigation with clickable segments
- Windows drive selector
- New folder creation inline
- Fixed text visibility with explicit color values
## Updated Components
### Server Routers
- `projects.py`: Uses registry instead of fixed generations/ directory
- `agent.py`: Uses registry for project path lookups
- `features.py`: Uses registry for database path resolution
- `spec_creation.py`: Uses registry for WebSocket project resolution
### Process Manager (`server/services/process_manager.py`)
- Fixed sandbox issue: subprocess now uses project_dir as cwd
- This allows the Claude SDK sandbox to access external project directories
### Schemas (`server/schemas.py`)
- Added `has_children` to DirectoryEntry
- Added `in_progress` to ProjectStats
- Added path field to ProjectSummary and ProjectDetail
### UI Components
- `NewProjectModal.tsx`: Multi-step wizard with folder selection
- Added clarifying text about subfolder creation
- Fixed text color visibility issues
### API Client (`ui/src/lib/api.ts`)
- Added filesystem API functions (listDirectory, createDirectory)
- Fixed Windows path splitting for directory creation
### Documentation
- Updated CLAUDE.md with registry system details
- Updated command examples for absolute paths
## Security Improvements
- Blocked `.` and `..` in directory names to prevent traversal
- Added path blocking check in project creation
- UNC path blocking throughout filesystem API

Implements feature locking to prevent multiple agent sessions from working
on the same feature simultaneously. This is essential for parallel agent
execution.
Database changes:
- Add `in_progress` boolean column to Feature model
- Add migration function to handle existing databases
MCP Server tools:
- Add `feature_mark_in_progress` - lock feature when starting work
- Add `feature_clear_in_progress` - unlock feature when abandoning
- Update `feature_get_next` to skip in-progress features
- Update `feature_get_stats` to include in_progress count
- Update `feature_mark_passing` and `feature_skip` to clear in_progress
Backend updates:
- Update progress.py to track and display in_progress count
- Update features router to properly categorize in-progress features
- Update WebSocket to broadcast in_progress in progress updates
- Add in_progress to FeatureResponse schema
Frontend updates:
- Add in_progress to TypeScript types (Feature, ProjectStats, WSProgressMessage)
- Update useWebSocket hook to track in_progress state
Prompt template:
- Add instructions for agents to mark features in-progress immediately
- Document new MCP tools in allowed tools section
Also fixes spec_chat_session.py to use absolute project path instead of
relative path for consistency with CLI behavior.
