- Add timezone utilities for converting between UTC and local time
- Add React Query hooks for schedule data fetching
- Fix 204 No Content handling in fetchJSON for delete operations

- Add TypeScript type annotations to Terminal component callbacks
Features:
- Multiple overlapping schedules per project supported
- Auto-start at scheduled time via APScheduler cron jobs
- Auto-stop after configured duration
- Manual start/stop creates persistent overrides in database
- Crash recovery with exponential backoff (max 3 retries)
- Server restart preserves schedules and active overrides
- Times displayed in user's local timezone, stored as UTC
- Immediate start if schedule created during active window
Dependencies:
- Add APScheduler for reliable cron-like scheduling

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.

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

- 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:

- Update useWebSocket hook to track in_progress state
Prompt template:
