Scope decision: previews for a browser that is not on the Host machine are not supported. With that settled, host.openPath answers the supported case completely — a file:// document in a real browser has full page capabilities and no reach into /api — and the HTTP serving this branch had built answered only the unsupported one. Removed: the /f route and its listener, the workspace-file URL shape, ApiProxy.workspaceRootOf, ConnectionHandle.fileUrl, and the port published into the index page. Kept, and finished: - the produced-files row a turn ends with, derived from mutation locations; - the path link now reads as a link at rest, not only on hover — the reported "I can't open what it made" was this, sitting on a working capability; - the Host opener prefers the default BROWSER for .html/.htm/.xhtml/.svg, so a developer who binds .html to an editor still gets a rendered page (macOS via the LaunchServices https handler, Linux via $BROWSER, every failure falling back to the default application). The retired designs and their measurements stay in the Agent Note, including why same-origin serving was unsafe and why the sandbox that fixed it broke the pages invisibly.
host/ — web-GUI host half
English | 中文
The host side of the dsh web GUI: the API gateway every client shape shares, and the plain HTTP server it rides on. The browser side lives in client/; the composed application is apps/cli serving apps/web. All product packages.
| Package | Role | ctx key |
|---|---|---|
apiproxy/ |
The shared API gateway: the zero-Node TS wire contract (src/api/), the fetch carrier pair (toFetchHandler host-side, AbstractApiClient client-side), and the host implementation over ctx.agents/ctx.workspace |
ctx.apiProxy |
webserver/ |
Plain HTTP route-registration carrier: node:http server listening on activation; routes register as named exact/prefix handlers |
ctx.httpServer |
directory-picker/ |
Workspace-directory picking seam: discriminated native/browse capability the gateway's picker RPCs delegate to |
ctx.directoryPicker |
directory-picker-native/ |
Dual-face native interaction: OS-chooser backend (osascript / PowerShell / Zenity+KDialog, host-display only) + the browser half filling ui-workspace's directory-flow slots | (registers ctx.directoryPicker) |
directory-picker-browse/ |
Dual-face browse interaction: listing/creation primitives over Node stdlib (remote-capable) + the browser half rendering the in-app Select Workspace Directory dialog | (registers ctx.directoryPicker) |
directory-picker-auto/ |
Adaptive chooser: resolves the host's situation once at boot (bind host, SSH, display) and mounts the matching dual-face backend as an in-memory Loader entry | (mounts a backend row) |
apiproxy is transport-agnostic by design — it registers no routes; carriers wrap ctx.apiProxy themselves. The HTTP carrier route (with its /api browser-trust fence) is mounted by client/connection's node half, which is why that package lives in the client group: it owns both ends of the wire.
