All WebSocket endpoints now call websocket.accept() before any
validation checks. Previously, closing the connection before accepting
caused Starlette to return an opaque HTTP 403 instead of a meaningful
error message.
Changes:
- Server: Accept WebSocket first, then send JSON error + close with
4xxx code if validation fails (expand, spec, assistant, terminal,
main project WS)
- Server: ConnectionManager.connect() no longer calls accept() to
avoid double-accept
- UI: Gate expand button and keyboard shortcut on hasSpec
- UI: Skip WebSocket reconnection on application error codes (4000-4999)
- UI: Update keyboard shortcuts help text

All 5 WebSocket endpoints (expand, spec, assistant, terminal, project)
were closing the connection before calling accept() when validation
failed. Starlette converts pre-accept close into an HTTP 403, giving
clients no meaningful error information.
Server changes:
- Move websocket.accept() before all validation checks in every WS handler
- Send JSON error message before closing so clients get actionable errors
- Fix validate_project_name usage (raises HTTPException, not returns bool)
- ConnectionManager.connect() no longer calls accept() (caller's job)
Client changes:
- All 3 WS hooks (useWebSocket, useExpandChat, useSpecChat) skip
reconnection on 4xxx close codes (application errors won't self-resolve)
- Gate expand button, keyboard shortcut, and modal on hasSpec
- Add hasSpec to useEffect dependency array to prevent stale closure
- Update keyboard shortcuts help text for E key context

Add support for multiple terminal instances per project with tabbed
navigation in the debug panel. Each terminal maintains its own PTY
session and WebSocket connection.
Backend changes:
- Add terminal metadata storage (id, name, created_at) per project
- Update terminal_manager.py with create, list, rename, delete functions
- Extend WebSocket endpoint to /api/terminal/ws/{project}/{terminal_id}
- Add REST endpoints for terminal CRUD operations
- Implement deferred PTY start with initial resize message
Frontend changes:
- Create TerminalTabs component with neobrutalism styling
- Support double-click rename and right-click context menu
- Fix terminal switching issues with transform-based hiding
- Use isActiveRef to prevent stale closure bugs in connect()
- Add double requestAnimationFrame for reliable activation timing
- Implement proper dimension validation in fitTerminal()
Other updates:
- Add GLM model configuration documentation to README
- Simplify client.py by removing CLI_COMMAND support
- Update chat session services with consistent patterns

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
