* fix(copilot): correct tool.execution_complete event handling

The CopilotProvider was using incorrect event type and data structure
for tool execution completion events from the @github/copilot-sdk,
causing tool call outputs to be empty.

Changes:
- Update event type from 'tool.execution_end' to 'tool.execution_complete'
- Fix data structure to use nested result.content instead of flat result
- Fix error structure to use error.message instead of flat error
- Add success field to match SDK event structure
- Add tests for empty and missing result handling

This aligns with the official @github/copilot-sdk v0.1.16 types
defined in session-events.d.ts.

* test(copilot): add edge case test for error with code field

Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

* refactor(copilot): improve error handling and code quality

Code review improvements:
- Extract magic string '[ERROR]' to TOOL_ERROR_PREFIX constant
- Add null-safe error handling with direct error variable assignment
- Include error codes in error messages for better debugging
- Add JSDoc documentation for tool.execution_complete handler
- Update tests to verify error codes are displayed
- Add missing tool_use_id assertion in error test

These changes improve:
- Code maintainability (no magic strings)
- Debugging experience (error codes now visible)
- Type safety (explicit null checks)
- Test coverage (verify error code formatting)

* Changes from fix/bug-fixes-1-0

* fix: Handle detached HEAD state in worktree discovery and recovery

* fix: Remove unused isDevServerStarting prop and md: breakpoint classes

* fix: Add missing dependency and sanitize persisted cache data

* feat: Ensure NODE_ENV is set to test in vitest configs

* feat: Configure Playwright to run only E2E tests

* fix: Improve PR tracking and dev server lifecycle management

* feat: Add settings-based defaults for planning mode, model config, and custom providers. Fixes #816

* feat: Add worktree and branch selector to graph view

* fix: Add timeout and error handling for worktree HEAD ref resolution

* fix: use absolute icon path and place icon outside asar on Linux

The hicolor icon theme index only lists sizes up to 512x512, so an icon
installed only at 1024x1024 is invisible to GNOME/KDE's theme resolver,
causing both the app launcher and taskbar to show a generic icon.
Additionally, BrowserWindow.icon cannot be read by the window manager
when the file is inside app.asar.

- extraResources: copy logo_larger.png to resources/ (outside asar) so
  it lands at /opt/Automaker/resources/logo_larger.png on install
- linux.desktop.Icon: set to the absolute resources path, bypassing the
  hicolor theme lookup and its size constraints entirely
- icon-manager.ts: on Linux production use process.resourcesPath so
  BrowserWindow receives a real filesystem path the WM can read directly

* fix: use linux.desktop.entry for custom desktop Icon field

electron-builder v26 rejects arbitrary keys in linux.desktop — the
correct schema wraps custom .desktop overrides inside desktop.entry.

* fix: set desktop name on Linux so taskbar uses the correct app icon

Without app.setDesktopName(), the window manager cannot associate the
running Electron process with automaker.desktop. GNOME/KDE fall back to
_NET_WM_ICON which defaults to Electron's own bundled icon.

Calling app.setDesktopName('automaker.desktop') before any window is
created sets the _GTK_APPLICATION_ID hint and XDG app_id so the WM
picks up the desktop entry's Icon for the taskbar.

* Fix: memory and context views mobile friendly (#818)

* Changes from fix/memory-and-context-mobile-friendly

* fix: Improve file extension detection and add path traversal protection

* refactor: Extract file extension utilities and add path traversal guards

Code review improvements:
- Extract isMarkdownFilename and isImageFilename to shared image-utils.ts
- Remove duplicated code from context-view.tsx and memory-view.tsx
- Add path traversal guard for context fixture utilities (matching memory)
- Add 7 new tests for context fixture path traversal protection
- Total 61 tests pass

Addresses code review feedback from PR #813

* chore: Use explicit TEST_USE_EXTERNAL_BACKEND env var for server cleanup

* feat: Add E2E/CI mock mode for provider factory and auth verification

* feat: Add remoteBranch parameter to pull and rebase operations

* chore: Enhance E2E testing setup with worker isolation and auth state management

- Updated .gitignore to include worker-specific test fixtures.
- Modified e2e-tests.yml to implement test sharding for improved CI performance.
- Refactored global setup to authenticate once and save session state for reuse across tests.

+ * Unit tests for the file editor store logic, focusing on the unsaved indicator fix.
+ *
+ * The bug was: File unsaved indicators weren't working reliably - editing a file
+ * and saving it would sometimes leave the dirty indicator (dot) visible.
+ *
+ * Root causes:
+ * 1. Stale closure in handleSave - captured activeTab could have old content
+ * 2. Editor buffer not synced - CodeMirror might have buffered changes not yet in store
+ *
+ * Fix:
+ * - handleSave now gets fresh state from store using getState()
+ * - handleSave gets current content from editor via getValue()
+ * - Content is synced to store before saving if it differs
+ *
+ * Since we can't easily test the React/zustand store in node environment,
+ * we test the pure logic that the store uses for dirty state tracking.

+### Git isolation: never use the main project path
+
+E2E tests must **never** use the workspace/repo root (the project you're developing in) as the project path. The app and server can run git commands (checkout, worktree add, merge, etc.) on the current project; if that path is the main repo, tests can leave it in a different branch or with merge conflicts.
+
+- **Allowed:** Paths under `tests/` (e.g. `createTempDirPath('...')` or `tests/fixtures/projectA`) or under `os.tmpdir()`.
+- **Not allowed:** Workspace root or any path outside `tests/` or temp.
+
+`setupRealProject` and `setupProjectWithFixture` enforce this: they throw if the project path is the workspace root or outside the allowed bases. Use `createTempDirPath()` for test-specific project dirs and the fixture path for fixture-based tests.
+
 ## Waiting for Elements
 
 ### Prefer `toBeVisible()` over `waitForSelector()`
