Security fixes to restore defense-in-depth after merging PR #78:
**client.py:**
- Revert permission mode from "bypassPermissions" to "acceptEdits"
- Remove redundant web_tools_auto_approve_hook from PreToolUse hooks
- Remove unused import of web_tools_auto_approve_hook
**security.py:**
- Remove web_tools_auto_approve_hook function (was redundant and
returned {} for ALL tools, not just WebFetch/WebSearch)
**server/services/spec_chat_session.py:**
- Restore allowed_tools restriction: [Read, Write, Edit, Glob,
WebFetch, WebSearch]
- Revert permission mode from "bypassPermissions" to "acceptEdits"
- Keeps setting_sources=["project", "user"] for global skills access
**ui/src/components/AgentAvatar.tsx:**
- Remove unused getMascotName export to fix React Fast Refresh warning
- File now only exports AgentAvatar component as expected
The bypassPermissions mode combined with unrestricted tool access in
spec_chat_session.py created a security gap where Bash commands could
execute without validation (sandbox disabled, no bash_security_hook).

- Memoize onNodeClick callback in App.tsx to prevent unnecessary re-renders
- Add useRef pattern in DependencyGraph to store callback without triggering
useMemo recalculation when callback identity changes
- Add hash-based change detection to only update ReactFlow state when
actual graph data changes (node status, edges), not on every parent render
- Add GraphErrorBoundary class component to catch ReactFlow rendering errors
and provide a "Reload Graph" recovery button instead of blank screen
- Wrap DependencyGraph with error boundary and resetKey for graceful recovery
The root cause was frequent WebSocket updates during active agent sessions
causing parent re-renders, which created new inline callback functions,
triggering useMemo/useEffect chains that corrupted ReactFlow's internal state
over time (approximately 1 minute of continuous updates).

- Softer colors (yellow/orange instead of red)
- Add scheduling scores for smarter feature ordering
- compute_scheduling_scores() in dependency_resolver.py
- Features that unblock others get higher priority
- Update CLAUDE.md with parallel mode documentation

Add support for using alternative API endpoints (like Zhipu AI's GLM models)
without affecting the user's global Claude Code settings. Configuration is
done via AutoCoder's .env file.
Changes:
- Add API_ENV_VARS constant and pass through ClaudeAgentOptions.env parameter
in client.py and all server service files (spec, expand, assistant sessions)
- Add glm_mode to settings API response to indicate when GLM is configured
- Add purple "GLM" badge in UI header when GLM mode is active
- Update setup status to accept GLM credentials as valid authentication
- Update .env.example with GLM configuration documentation
- Update README.md with AutoCoder-scoped GLM setup instructions
Supported environment variables:
- ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL: Custom API endpoint (e.g., https://api.z.ai/api/anthropic)
- ANTHROPIC_AUTH_TOKEN: API authentication token
- API_TIMEOUT_MS: Request timeout in milliseconds
- ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_SONNET_MODEL: Model override for Sonnet
- ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_OPUS_MODEL: Model override for Opus
- ANTHROPIC_DEFAULT_HAIKU_MODEL: Model override for Haiku
This approach routes API requests through the alternative endpoint while
keeping all Claude Code features (MCP servers, hooks, permissions) intact.

Remove automatic subfolder creation when creating projects. Users now
select the exact folder they want to use, enabling support for existing
projects without requiring folder names to match project names.
Changes:
- NewProjectModal.tsx: Remove path concatenation that appended project
name to selected folder. Update instruction text to clarify users
select THE project folder, not a parent location.
- FolderBrowser.tsx: Add visual indicator "This folder will contain
all project files" to clarify selection behavior.
- projects.py: Add duplicate path validation to prevent multiple
projects from registering the same directory. Includes case-insensitive
path comparison on Windows for proper cross-platform support.
This allows users to:
- Use Auto Coder on existing projects by selecting their folder directly
- Have project names that differ from folder names (name is a registry label)
- Get clear feedback when a path is already registered under another name

The Chat AI Assistant button (AssistantFAB) was appearing on top of the
full-screen spec creation chat overlay, causing a visual bug where the
button would overlap with the Send input area.
Changes:
- Add onStepChange callback prop to NewProjectModal to notify parent
when the modal step changes
- Add onSpecCreatingChange callback prop to ProjectSelector to propagate
spec creation state up to App.tsx
- Add isSpecCreating state to App.tsx to track when spec creation chat
is active
- Update AssistantFAB render condition to include !isSpecCreating
- Disable 'A' keyboard shortcut during spec creation mode
The fix propagates the spec creation state through the component
hierarchy: NewProjectModal -> ProjectSelector -> App.tsx, allowing
the FAB to be hidden when step === 'chat' in the new project modal.

Move the "Add Feature" (+) and "Expand Project" (sparkles) buttons from
the top navigation bar to the Pending column header in the Kanban board.
Changes:
- KanbanColumn: Add optional onAddFeature, onExpandProject, and
showExpandButton props; render action buttons in column header
- KanbanBoard: Accept and pass action handlers to the Pending column
- App: Remove buttons from header, pass handlers to KanbanBoard
This improves UX by placing feature creation actions contextually near
the pending features they affect. Keyboard shortcuts (N, E) still work.

Adds the ability to add multiple features to an existing project through
a natural language conversation with Claude, similar to how initial spec
creation works.
Features:
- New "Expand" button in header (keyboard shortcut: E)
- Full-screen chat interface for describing new features
- Claude reads existing app_spec.txt for context
- Features created directly in database after user approval
- Bulk feature creation endpoint for batch operations
New files:
- .claude/commands/expand-project.md - Claude skill for expansion
- server/services/expand_chat_session.py - Chat session service
- server/routers/expand_project.py - WebSocket endpoint
- ui/src/components/ExpandProjectChat.tsx - Chat UI
- ui/src/components/ExpandProjectModal.tsx - Modal wrapper
- ui/src/hooks/useExpandChat.ts - WebSocket hook
Modified:
- Added POST /bulk endpoint to features router
- Added FeatureBulkCreate schemas
- Integrated Expand button and modal in App.tsx

Allow users to interact with the project assistant to create features
through natural conversation. The assistant can now:
- Create single features via `feature_create` tool
- Create multiple features via `feature_create_bulk`
- Skip features to deprioritize them via `feature_skip`
Changes:
- Add `feature_create` MCP tool for single-feature creation
- Update assistant allowed tools to include feature management
- Update system prompt to explain new capabilities
- Enhance UI tool call display with friendly messages
Security: File system access remains read-only. The assistant cannot
modify source code or mark features as passing (requires actual
implementation by the coding agent).

Add multiple escape hatches to prevent users from getting stuck during
spec creation when the WebSocket completion signal fails.
Changes:
- Add "Exit to Project" button always visible in chat header
- Add /exit command detection to immediately exit to project
- Add backend GET /api/spec/status/{project} endpoint to poll status file
- Add getSpecStatus() API function in frontend
- Add status file polling (every 3s) in useSpecChat hook
- Update create-spec.md with status file write instructions
How it works:
1. Happy path: Claude writes .spec_status.json as final step, UI polls
and detects completion, shows "Continue to Project" button
2. Escape hatch: User can always click "Exit to Project" or type /exit
to instantly select the project and close modal, then manually start
the agent from the main UI
This ensures users always have a way forward even if the WebSocket
completion detection fails due to tool call tracking issues.

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
