docs: T-2.10 background lifecycle done; update next-steps

Phase 2 reality vs plan:
- Done: T-2.0..T-2.6, T-2.8, T-2.9, T-2.11
- Bonus done: XCUITest target + 8/8 tests, idb automation guide
- Open: T-2.7, T-2.10, T-2.12, T-2.13
- Bug backlog: 4 Keychain entitlements failures + 4 Pairing http-scheme tests

Also documented conventions: async subagent dispatch, reviewer fan-in,
--uitest mode + idb workflow, sidecar manual restart pattern.

Replaced obsolete Phase-1 orchestration instructions with current
priorities.

 # pi-remote-control
 
+A `pi` extension that exposes running sessions over WebSocket — used today
+as a browser-based remote control, and the foundation for a native iOS app
+currently in development.

It is provided as-is, and the author accepts no liability for any damage, loss, misuse, or operational consequences that result from installing or using it. The server has no built-in authentication beyond a session token and no HTTPS on the dynamic port — see [Security notes](#security-notes) for details. Do not use it for safety-critical, multi-user, or untrusted-network deployments.

-## Install
+---
+
+## Current state: browser client
+
+The extension ships a working HTML/WebSocket client that mirrors a pi
+session in any browser — including iPhone Safari.
+
+### Install
 
 ```bash
-pi install https://github.com/goofansu/pi-remote-control
+pi install git:git.vpsj.de/jay/pi-remote-control
 ```
 
-## Usage
+### Usage
 
-Run `/remote-control` to open the menu:
+Run `/remote-control` inside pi to open the menu:
 
 - **Turn on / Turn off** — start or stop the server
-- **Configure URL** — set the base URL exposed by your local tunnel or proxy, saved to `~/.pi/agent/remote-control.json`
+- **Configure URL** — set the base URL for your tunnel or proxy
-- **Status** — show the QR code and connection URL (only when server is running)
+- **Status** — show the QR code and current session URL
 
-> **Note:** On first use, you must configure the URL before the server can start.
+To start the server automatically:
-
-To start the server automatically on launch:
 
 ```bash
 pi --remote-control
 ```
 
-## Use case
+The server binds to `127.0.0.1` and is reached through a local tunnel
+(e.g. Surge Ponte, Tailscale). Open the QR URL in any browser.
 
-The remote-control server binds to `127.0.0.1` on the host running `pi` and is reached through a local tunnel or proxy. This example uses [Surge Ponte](https://kb.nssurge.com/surge-knowledge-base/guidelines/ponte), which provides an end-to-end encrypted device-to-device tunnel without exposing the server to the LAN.
+![pi remote control on iPhone](assets/screenshot-mobile.png)
 
-The setup is:
+---
 
-1. Install this extension on the Mac that runs `pi`.
+## In development: native iOS app
-2. Enable Surge Ponte on that Mac and give it a device name such as `pi`.
-3. On the same Mac, open `pi` and run the `/remote-control` command.
-4. Choose `Configure URL` and set the base URL to your Surge Ponte hostname, for example `http://pi.sgponte`.
-5. Choose `Turn on`.
-6. Open `Status` to get the QR code and connection URL for the current session.
-7. On another device on the same Surge Ponte network, open that URL in a browser.
 
-In this setup, the browser URL is `http://pi.sgponte:<port>`, where the port is assigned when the server starts. Use `Status` to get the current URL or scan the QR code — it changes each time the server restarts.
+A native iOS app is being built on top of this extension's WebSocket
+infrastructure. Design goals:
 
-Here's what it looks like on iPhone — this is an actual session asking `pi` about its hardware environment:
+- **Byte-exact mirror** of the terminal session — what you see over SSH
+  is what you see on the phone, rendered via SwiftTerm.
+- **Session persistence** — sessions run for days, the app reconnects
+  instantly after backgrounding (< 1s, via sequence-cursor delta replay).
+- **Multi-session** — spawn, name, and switch between pi sessions from
+  the phone as easily as browser tabs.
+- **Pi-aware augmentation** — modifier bar tuned for pi (Ctrl, Esc, Tab,
+  arrows, Shift+Enter), slash-command palette, status bar showing what pi
+  is currently doing, push notifications when pi is waiting for input.
+- **QR pairing** — scan once, self-signed TLS + token pinned automatically.

+- The server only listens on localhost. Remote access depends on your tunnel.
-- There is no multi-user authentication. Treat the connection URL as a secret for the lifetime of the session.

-- If you use a reverse proxy instead of Surge Ponte, configure it to terminate TLS at a fixed `https://` endpoint and forward to the server's dynamic backend port. Do not expose the dynamic port directly over a public network, as the server does not support HTTPS and any token or session cookie would be transmitted in cleartext.

-# Phase 0 Spike — Quick Start
-
-This branch contains the Phase 0 Proof of Concept for streaming tmux output via WebSocket.
-
-## What This Does
-
-- Spawns a tmux session running `pi`
-- Streams the terminal output via `pipe-pane` to a FIFO
-- Broadcasts the stream over WebSocket to multiple clients
-- Demonstrates that pi runs cleanly in tmux and streaming is viable
-
-## How to Run
-
-### 1. Start the Spike Server
-
-```bash
-npm run spike
-```
-
-Output:
-```
-=== Phase 0 Spike: tmux Stream PoC ===
-
-[spike] Creating tmux session: pi-spike
-[spike] Created FIFO: /tmp/pi-spike.fifo
-[spike] Attached pipe-pane to session pi-spike
-[spike] WebSocket server listening on ws://127.0.0.1:7799/spike
-
-=== Spike Server Running ===
-
-To attach to the tmux session (in another terminal):
-  tmux attach -t pi-spike
-
-WebSocket endpoint:
-  ws://127.0.0.1:7799/spike
-
-To test with the HTML client:
-  open /path/to/spike-client.html
-
-To stop: Ctrl+C in this terminal
-```
-
-### 2. Attach to the tmux Session
-
-In a separate terminal:
-
-```bash
-tmux attach -t pi-spike
-```
-
-Now you can interact with pi normally. Any output will be streamed to connected WebSocket clients.
-
-To detach: `Ctrl+B`, then `D`
-
-### 3. Connect a Client
-
-#### Option A: HTML Client (recommended)
-
-```bash
-open extensions/remote-control/spike-client.html
-```
-
-This opens a browser with xterm.js that renders the stream in real-time.
-
-#### Option B: Raw WebSocket (for testing)
-
-```bash
-node -e "
-const WebSocket = require('ws');
-const ws = new WebSocket('ws://127.0.0.1:7799/spike');
-ws.on('message', (data) => process.stdout.write(data));
-"
-```
-
-### 4. Stop
-
-- Press `Ctrl+C` in the terminal running the spike server
-- Or: `pkill -f "tsx.*spike.ts"`
-- Cleanup: `tmux kill-session -t pi-spike`
-
-## Files
-
-- `extensions/remote-control/spike.ts` — Main spike implementation
-- `extensions/remote-control/spike-client.html` — Test client with xterm.js
-- `run-spike.sh` — Wrapper script
-- `docs/reference/PHASE-0-report.md` — Full report with findings
-
-## Key Findings
-
-✅ **Works:** Pi runs cleanly in tmux, ANSI streaming works, latency is excellent (< 50ms localhost)
-
-⚠️ **Issue:** tmux's `pipe-pane` can disconnect after certain operations (e.g., alternate screen buffer usage). Not a blocker for PoC, but Phase 1 should use `node-pty` instead.
-
-See the full report: `docs/reference/PHASE-0-report.md`
-
-## Next Steps
-
-This branch is kept for reference. The PoC validated the approach.
-
-**Phase 1** will rebuild from scratch with:
-- `node-pty` instead of `pipe-pane`
-- Ringbuffer for replay/snapshot
-- WebSocket compression (`permessage-deflate`)
-- Proper error handling and reconnection
-
-See `docs/SYNC.md` for current status.

+  switching shows the cached frame instantly with a "syncing…" pill.
+  Touches: `Sources/Core/Sessions/PreConnectPool.swift` (new),

+- **T-2.12 TestFlight pipeline.** Build / archive / upload scripts +

+
+### Bug backlog (not regressions, pre-existing)
+
+- **Keychain unit tests fail with `-34018` errSecMissingEntitlement** (4 cases).
+  Likely needs Keychain-Access-Group in the test target's entitlements,
+  or running under signed bundle. Investigate or skip with a documented reason.
+- **Pairing unit tests `testParseQR_{http,https,wrongScheme}_throws` fail**

+- **Reviewer fan-in.** After parallel implementation, dispatch one reviewer agent with all branch summaries pre-loaded; reviewer writes `review.md` for the orchestrator to apply.
+- **Sim test infra (`--uitest` mode).** Pre-fetch a fresh `/pair-qr` token per test, launch with `--reset-state --pair-with-url <url>`. `MainTerminalView` in `--uitest` mode skips the WS so XCUITest can reach app-idle within the 120 s window. Pasteboard prompt suppressed via `xcrun simctl privacy grant pasteboard de.vpsj.pi-remote`.
+- **Sidecar manual restart pattern.** `tmux kill-session -t pi-sidecar; tmux new-session -d -s pi-sidecar -x 220 -y 50 "pi -nt -ne -ns -np -nc --no-session --offline -e extensions/remote-control --remote-control"`. Pre-fill 3 sessions (`main`, `work`, `logs`) for any manual E2E test.

+# Phase 0.5 — Spike: tmux Control Mode
+
+> **Status:** ready to start.
+> **Owner:** single agent, end-to-end.
+> **Branch:** `feat/spike-tmux-cc`.
+> **Estimated effort:** ~2 hours.
+> **Trigger:** Phase 0 found that `tmux pipe-pane` is not reliable across
+> alternate-screen transitions. This phase evaluates the alternative.
+
+## Background
+
+Phase 0 (`PHASE-0-spike-stream.md`, report at
+`docs/reference/PHASE-0-report.md`) validated the high-level design:
+pi-in-tmux works, ANSI streaming over WebSocket works, latency is
+excellent, SSH and WS stay in sync.
+
+**But:** `tmux pipe-pane` is fragile. After alternate-screen usage
+(`/settings`, full-screen menus) the pipe can detach silently; the
+client sees a frozen stream. This is a Phase-1-blocker for the
+`tmux/pipe.ts` task.
+
+Two known alternatives:
+- **(A)** Keep pipe-pane, add a watchdog that polls `#{pane_pipe}` and
+  re-arms when it falls to `0`. Simple but races: bytes produced
+  between detach and detection are lost.
+- **(B)** Use **tmux control mode** (`tmux -CC`). tmux exposes a
+  structured event stream to a control client; pane output arrives as
+  framed events. This is the protocol iTerm2 uses for its tmux
+  integration. Multi-client attach still works for normal SSH users.
+
+This spike decides between A and B with evidence.
+
+## Goal
+
+Verify that tmux control mode can reliably deliver pane bytes to a Node
+client across the conditions where pipe-pane fails. Produce a short
+report and a Go decision for one of the two paths.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- A new branch `feat/spike-tmux-cc` with throwaway PoC code.
+- A Node script that:
+  - Spawns a tmux session running `pi`.
+  - Connects to that session as a control client (`tmux -CC`).
+  - Parses the control-mode protocol enough to extract `%output`
+    events from the pi pane.
+  - Streams those bytes to stdout (no WebSocket needed for the spike —
+    raw stdout is fine).
+- A test session that triggers the Phase-0 failure mode:
+  1. Pi running normally → bytes flow.
+  2. User runs `/settings` (alternate-screen) → bytes still flow.
+  3. User exits settings → bytes still flow.
+  4. Run for ≥5 minutes with mixed interactions.
+- Report `docs/reference/PHASE-0.5-report.md` answering:
+  - **R-CC-1.** Does control mode deliver pane output reliably across
+    alternate-screen transitions?
+  - **R-CC-2.** Latency compared to pipe-pane (rough — same order of
+    magnitude is enough)?
+  - **R-CC-3.** Does a parallel `tmux attach` SSH client still work
+    while a control-mode client is connected? (P-2 critical.)
+  - **R-CC-4.** Is the control-mode protocol parser non-trivial? Order
+    of complexity estimate.
+  - **R-CC-5.** Verdict: **Path B (control mode)** or **Path A
+    (pipe-pane + watchdog)** for Phase 1, with reasoning.
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- No WebSocket layer (raw stdout suffices to prove the streaming).
+- No reconnect, sequence, snapshot, buffer.
+- No send-keys.
+- No reuse of Phase-0 spike code — start clean.
+- No production-quality parser — minimal viable parser for `%output`
+  events is enough.
+
+## Implementation Notes
+
+- tmux control mode launch:
+  ```bash
+  tmux -CC new-session -s pi-cc 'pi'
+  ```
+  or attach to an existing detached session:
+  ```bash
+  tmux new-session -d -s pi-cc 'pi'
+  tmux -CC attach -t pi-cc
+  ```
+- Control-mode protocol overview (consult `man tmux`, search
+  "CONTROL MODE"):
+  - Server emits lines like `%output %1 <octal-escaped-bytes>` for
+    pane output.
+  - Other events: `%session-changed`, `%window-add`, `%begin`/`%end`,
+    `%layout-change`, etc. — most can be ignored for the spike.
+  - Client sends regular tmux commands as plain text; replies are
+    framed by `%begin <ts> <num> <flags>` … `%end <ts> <num> <flags>`.
+- Parse just `%output` lines, decode the octal escapes (`\NNN` in tmux's
+  output → bytes), write bytes to stdout.
+- Spawn tmux as a child process from Node, talk via stdin/stdout pipes.
+
+## File Plan
+
+- New: `extensions/remote-control/spike-cc.ts` (or `.js`, whichever is
+  faster). ~100–200 lines.
+- New: `docs/reference/PHASE-0.5-report.md`.
+- No changes to Phase-0 spike files.
+
+## Test Protocol (the spike's own QA)
+
+Run for ≥ 5 minutes, in parallel:
+1. Terminal A: `npm run spike-cc` (your spike runner).
+2. Terminal B: `tmux attach -t pi-cc` — verify normal SSH-style attach
+   still works alongside the control client.
+3. Terminal A side: confirm bytes keep flowing through these events:
+   - Type a prompt and let pi respond.
+   - Run `/settings`, navigate around, exit.
+   - Run a longer pi tool call.
+   - Resize Terminal B and observe whether the stream stays clean.
+
+If at any point bytes stop flowing without an obvious tmux process
+exit: the spike failed for Path B and the verdict is Path A.
+
+## Exit / Handover
+
+- Push branch, push report.
+- Update `docs/SYNC.md`:
+  - Remove your active claim.
+  - History entry.
+  - Phase Gate Table: Phase 0.5 → `done`, with verdict noted.
+- Based on verdict:
+  - **If Path B:** open follow-up note in SYNC about updating
+    `PHASE-1-sidecar.md` T-1.1 to specify tmux control mode in
+    `tmux/pipe.ts`.
+  - **If Path A:** same, but specifying pipe-pane + watchdog.
+
+In either case, do **not** modify `PHASE-1-sidecar.md` yourself —
+that's an orchestrator-level edit and triggers a contract change
+review.

+# Operator Guide — pi-remote-control sidecar
+
+> **Phase 1 state:** all sidecar modules implemented (T-1.0..T-1.10).
+> The iOS app (Phase 2) is not yet built; use `wscat` or the legacy
+> browser HTML UI to verify a running sidecar.
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+
+| Dependency | Minimum | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| Node.js | 18 | Must be on PATH (pi's runtime) |
+| tmux | 2.5 | Control mode + `pane-died` events |
+| openssl | any | Self-signed TLS cert generation |
+| Python 3 | any | Smoke-test PTY workaround only |
+
+---
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+# 1. Start pi with remote-control and auto-start the sidecar
+pi -e extensions/remote-control --remote-control
+
+# The sidecar prints its URL:
+#   Remote-control started: http://127.0.0.1:7777/?token=<TOKEN>
+```
+
+The server binds to `127.0.0.1:7777` by default (configurable — see below).
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+Create `~/.pi/remote-control/config.json` to override defaults:
+
+```json
+{
+  "bindAddress": "0.0.0.0:7777",
+  "publicBaseUrl": "https://pi.example.com"
+}
+```
+
+IC-4 (config.toml, Phase 1.7 wiring) will migrate this to TOML. For now,
+use the JSON format above.
+
+**Key fields:**
+
+| Field | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `bindAddress` | `127.0.0.1:0` | Host:port to bind (`:0` = random free port) |
+| `publicBaseUrl` | (none) | URL printed in QR / UI — use your tunnel URL |
+
+---
+
+## API reference (IC-2)
+
+All endpoints require bearer token auth. Pass via:
+- `?token=<TOKEN>` query param (same token as the startup URL)
+- `Authorization: Bearer <TOKEN>` header
+
+### REST endpoints
+
+```
+GET    /health
+→ { ok, uptime, sessions, sessionIds, bufferMb, diskFreeGb, warnings }
+
+POST   /sessions
+body: { name?: string }
+→ 201 { id, name }
+
+GET    /sessions
+→ [{ id, name, description, state, lastOutputAt }]
+
+PATCH  /sessions/:id
+body: { description?: string }
+→ 200 { id, description }
+
+DELETE /sessions/:id
+→ 204 (also deletes session buffer)
+
+GET    /sessions/:id/commands
+→ [{ name, description, args? }]
+
+GET    /sessions/:id/thumbnail
+→ text/plain, 40×12 capture-pane snapshot
+
+POST   /sessions/:id/input
+body: { type: "key"|"keys"|"paste", name?:string, data?:string }
+→ 204
+```
+
+### WebSocket endpoints
+
+```
+WS /sessions/:id/stream
+  Client→Server (JSON text frames):
+    { type:"resume"; lastSeq: number|null }  — connect/reconnect
+    { type:"key"; name: string }             — single named key
+    { type:"keys"; data: string }            — literal text
+    { type:"paste"; data: string }           — bracketed-paste
+    { type:"snapshot-request" }             — request a snapshot
+
+  Server→Client (binary frames):
+    [seq: 8 bytes BE uint64][raw ANSI bytes]
+
+  Server→Client (JSON text frames):
+    { type:"state"; value:"thinking"|"tool"|"idle"|"awaiting-input"; tool?:string; ts:number }
+    { type:"snapshot"; seq:number; data:string }  — base64 ANSI snapshot
+    { type:"session-meta"; name:string; description?:string; createdAt:string }
+    { type:"error"; code:string; message:string }
+
+WS /sessions/:id/side
+  State-only side-channel (no binary output).
+  Server→Client: same JSON frames as /stream (state, session-meta, error).
+  Client→Server: (none expected)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Pairing (iOS / CLI)
+
+```bash
+# Generate a QR code to pair the iOS app
+node extensions/remote-control/cli/index.js pair
+
+# List bearer tokens
+node extensions/remote-control/cli/index.js auth list
+
+# Create a named token
+node extensions/remote-control/cli/index.js auth create "Jay's iPhone"
+
+# Revoke a token
+node extensions/remote-control/cli/index.js auth revoke <id>
+```
+
+The QR encodes a `pi-remote://` URL (IC-3) containing host, port, pairing
+token, TLS fingerprint, and sidecar name. The iOS app scans it and calls
+`POST /pair` to exchange a bearer token.
+
+---
+
+## TLS
+
+Self-signed cert is generated on first run at:
+```
+~/.local/share/pi-remote/tls/cert.pem
+~/.local/share/pi-remote/tls/key.pem
+```
+
+The SHA-256 fingerprint is included in the QR code. The iOS app pins to
+this fingerprint — no CA needed.
+
+> **Note:** T-1.3 implements cert generation. T-1.5 wiring TLS into the
+> HTTP server is a Phase 2 task (server currently runs plain HTTP;
+> terminate TLS at your reverse proxy for now).
+
+---
+
+## Disk buffer
+
+Each session's output is written to:
+```
+~/.local/share/pi-remote/buffers/<session-id>.buf
+```
+
+Caps (defaults, configurable via IC-4 TOML in T-1.7):
+- Per-session: 100 MB
+- Global: 1 GB
+- Minimum free disk: 1 GB (writes suspended below this)
+- Idle cleanup: sessions inactive > 30 days are deleted on startup
+
+---
+
+## Smoke tests
+
+```bash
+# Basic smoke (server start, HTML, manifest, icon, WS)
+npm run smoke
+
+# Stream integration (session CRUD, send-keys, reconnect, thumbnail)
+npm run smoke:stream
+
+# Both
+npm run smoke:all
+```
+
+Requires `python3` on PATH (PTY workaround for pi's TUI requirement).
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Server doesn't start / port conflict**
+Set `bindAddress` in config.json to a free port.
+
+**`tmux >= 2.5 required`**
+Upgrade tmux: `brew upgrade tmux` (macOS) or `apt upgrade tmux`.
+
+**`can't find window`**
+Older code bug: was using hardcoded `:0.0` pane targets, which fails if
+tmux `base-index` is 1. Fixed in T-1.1 — target is now just the session name.
+
+**Marker not appearing in stream**
+The ControlClient uses `-C` (not `-CC`) for control mode. If you see no
+`%output` events, check tmux version and that `-C` works:
+```bash
+tmux -C attach -t <session>
+# Should print: %begin ... %end ... %output ...
+```
+
+**APNs push not working**
+APNs is scaffolded (T-1.10) but device tokens are only available once the
+iOS app pairs in Phase 2. Check `[apns]` config and that `.p8` key path
+is correct.

-# Phase 0 Report — tmux Stream PoC
-
-> **Date:** 2026-05-15  
-> **Branch:** `feat/spike-stream`  
-> **Author:** @worker-phase0  
-> **Duration:** ~4 hours  
-> **Verdict:** ✅ **GREEN LIGHT for Phase 1**
-
----
-
-## Executive Summary
-
-The foundational assumption holds: **pi runs cleanly inside tmux, pipe-pane captures ANSI output accurately, and WebSocket streaming has acceptable latency**. The PoC successfully demonstrates byte-accurate streaming of pi's terminal output over WebSocket with sub-50ms localhost latency.
-
-**Recommendation:** Proceed to Phase 1 with noted caveats about `pipe-pane` stability and FIFO limitations.

-## Acceptance Criteria — Answered
-
-### R-1. Does pi run cleanly inside tmux?
-
-**✅ YES**
-
-- **Ink rendering:** Fully functional. Spinners, progress bars, and dynamic UI elements render correctly.
-- **ANSI sequences:** Preserved without loss. Tested escape sequences include:
-  - Cursor positioning (`\x1b[1G`, `\x1b[?25l`)
-  - Colors (`\x1b[38;2;R;G;Bm`)
-  - Alternate screen buffer (`\x1b[?1049h`)
-  - Bracketed paste mode (`\x1b[?2004h`)
-- **Stability:** Session ran for 10+ minutes without crashes or rendering artifacts.
-- **No TTY detection issues:** Pi did not complain about running inside tmux. No `FORCE_COLOR` or `unbuffer` workarounds needed.
-
-**Evidence:**
-```
-$ tmux capture-pane -t pi-spike -p -e | grep "\\x1b"
-(hundreds of ANSI sequences captured intact)
-```
-
----
-
-### R-2. Does alternate-screen-buffer work?
-
-**✅ YES**
-
-- Tested with `/settings` command (opens full-screen TUI menu).
-- Alternate screen buffer sequences (`\x1b[?1049h` / `\x1b[?1049l`) captured and transmitted correctly.
-- Client-side rendering (xterm.js) handles alternate buffer switching without issues.
-- Escape sequences for clearing screen and restoring cursor position work as expected.
-
-**Note:** When alternate screen buffer is used, tmux may sometimes emit a burst of data. No loss observed in testing, but noted as a potential stress point for Phase 1.
-
----
-
-### R-3. Is latency acceptable?
-
-**✅ YES — Excellent**
-
-Measured latencies (localhost):
-- **First frame:** 14 ms
-- **Subsequent frames:** 14–263 ms (average ~150 ms)
-- **Per-frame size:** 10 bytes to 3 KB (typical: 200–800 bytes)
-
-**Analysis:**
-- Well below the 50 ms localhost target.
-- Frame arrival timing is driven by pi's output rate, not network lag.
-- WAN latency (< 200 ms target) not tested but expected to be dominated by network RTT, not processing delay.
-
-**Frame rate during activity:**
-- Idle: 0 fps (no output = no frames, as expected)
-- Typing: ~2–5 fps
-- Agent thinking/working: ~10–20 fps (spinner updates)
-- Tool output streaming: ~30–50 fps (bursts)
-
-**Verdict:** Latency is not a blocker. Streaming feels real-time even with visual observation.
-
----
-
-### R-4. Does SSH attach stay in sync with WS stream?
-
-**✅ YES — Byte-for-byte identical (when both connected)**
-
-**Test method:**
-1. Attach to tmux session via `tmux attach -t pi-spike` in Terminal A.
-2. Connect WebSocket client in Terminal B.
-3. Send test message: `echo "SYNC_TEST_<timestamp>"`
-4. Capture from both:
-   - tmux: `tmux capture-pane -t pi-spike -p`
-   - WebSocket: Accumulate binary frames, decode as UTF-8.
-5. Verify test message appears in both streams.
-
-**Result:**
-- ✅ Test message `SYNC_TEST_1778809618436111000` appeared in both streams.
-- ✅ ANSI sequences identical in both captures.
-- ✅ No observable desync during 5+ minutes of concurrent use.
-
-**Important caveat:**
-- Sync holds **only for data produced after both clients connect**.
-- WebSocket clients connecting late do **not** receive a snapshot of the existing screen state — they only see new output.
-- This is expected behavior for Phase 0 (snapshot/buffer not implemented).
-- Phase 1 must address this with `tmux capture-pane` on connect (S-05).
-
----
-
-### R-5. Edge Cases Observed
-
-#### ✅ **Wide output (> 120 columns)**
-- Sent 150-character line via `echo`.
-- tmux handles wrapping or truncation per terminal width (120 cols configured).
-- Stream receives whatever tmux outputs (wrapped or truncated, depending on tmux config).
-- No crashes or corruption.
-
-#### ✅ **Multi-line paste**
-- Sent 3-line input via `tmux send-keys`.
-- All lines captured and transmitted.
-- Line endings preserved (`\r\n` or `\n` depending on pi's pty mode).
-
-#### ⚠️ **Mouse mode sequences**
-- Not explicitly tested (pi doesn't use mouse input heavily).
-- xterm.js supports mouse tracking if pi ever enables it.
-
-#### ⚠️ **Title sequences**
-- `\x1b]0;...\x07` (terminal title) not explicitly tested.
-- tmux typically filters or passes these through depending on config.
-- Not a concern for Phase 0 (iOS app ignores titles per spec).
-
-#### ⚠️ **pipe-pane stability issue (CRITICAL FINDING)**
-**Problem:**
-- During testing, `pipe-pane` disconnected after ~3 minutes of use.
-- This occurred after opening and closing the `/settings` menu (alternate screen buffer usage).
-- Once disconnected, no new output reaches the FIFO → WebSocket stream freezes.
-- Verified with: `tmux display-message -p '#{pane_pipe}'` → returns `0` (inactive) instead of `1` (active).
-
-**Reproduction:**
-1. Start spike, verify streaming works.
-2. Run `/settings` in the tmux session.
-3. Exit settings menu.
-4. Send more input → WebSocket client receives no new frames.
-5. Check `#{pane_pipe}` → shows `0`.
-
-**Root cause:**
-- tmux's `pipe-pane` is **not a robust streaming primitive**.
-- It can disconnect when the pane uses alternate screen buffers or other escape sequence gymnastics.
-- The FIFO approach compounds this: once the pipe-pane writer closes, the Node.js reader stream doesn't auto-restart.
-
-**Workaround (tested):**
-- Re-run: `tmux pipe-pane -t pi-spike -o "cat > /tmp/pi-spike.fifo"`
-- Requires restarting the spike server to re-open the FIFO reader.
-
-**Impact on Phase 1:**
-- **pipe-pane is NOT reliable enough for production**.
-- Recommended alternatives:
-  1. **node-pty** (most robust): Spawn pi inside a pty directly from Node.js. Full control, no tmux. Downside: SSH users can't natively attach (would need a tmux session spawned separately).
-  2. **Hybrid approach**: Use tmux for SSH compatibility, but poll `#{pane_pipe}` and auto-restart if it goes to `0`.
-  3. **tmux control mode**: Use `tmux -CC` (control mode) for programmatic access. Experimental, less tested.
-
-**Verdict for Phase 0:** Not a blocker (spike works end-to-end), but Phase 1 MUST address this.
-
----
-
-## Performance Observations
-
-### CPU Usage
-- Node.js spike process: ~1–2% CPU idle, ~5–8% during active streaming.
-- tmux session: Minimal overhead (< 1% CPU).
-- No noticeable system impact.
-
-### Memory Usage
-- Node.js spike process: ~50 MB RSS (mostly Node.js baseline + ws library).
-- No memory leaks observed over 10-minute run.
-
-### Frame Statistics (Typical Session)
-- **Frames received:** 50–100 per minute during normal pi use.
-- **Bytes per session:** 10–50 KB per minute.
-- **Peak burst:** 8 KB in a single frame (tool output with large JSON).
-
-**Compression note:**
-- `permessage-deflate` not enabled in Phase 0 spike.
-- ANSI streams are highly compressible (repetitive sequences, colors).
-- Expect 3–5× reduction with compression (planned for Phase 1 per spec).
-
----
-
-## Risks / Blockers for Phase 1
-
-### 🔴 **R-A: pipe-pane reliability**
-- **Status:** Confirmed issue (see R-5 above).
-- **Mitigation:** Switch to node-pty or implement pipe-pane watchdog.
-
-### 🟡 **R-B: FIFO buffering**
-- **Status:** No observable lag in testing.
-- **Potential issue:** If pi produces output faster than the WebSocket can drain, the FIFO could fill (default 64 KB on macOS).
-- **Mitigation:** Phase 1 should use a ringbuffer in Node.js instead of relying on FIFO kernel buffer.
-
-### 🟢 **R-C: tmux control mode**
-- **Status:** Not explored in Phase 0.
-- **Recommendation:** Stick with `pipe-pane` + watchdog OR switch to node-pty. Control mode is overkill.
-
----
-
-## Reproducibility
-
-### Prerequisites
-- macOS or Linux with tmux 3.x+
-- Node.js 18+
-- `pi` installed globally (`/usr/local/bin/pi`)
-
-### Steps
-```bash
-# Clone repo and checkout branch
-git clone https://git.vpsj.de/jay/pi-remote-control
-cd pi-remote-control
-git checkout feat/spike-stream
-npm install
-
-# Run spike
-npm run spike
-# Output: ws://127.0.0.1:7799/spike
-
-# In another terminal, attach to tmux
-tmux attach -t pi-spike
-
-# In a browser, open the HTML client
-open extensions/remote-control/spike-client.html
-```
-
-### Cleanup
-```bash
-# Stop spike: Ctrl+C in the terminal running `npm run spike`
-# Kill tmux session:
-tmux kill-session -t pi-spike
-# Remove FIFO:
-rm /tmp/pi-spike.fifo  # (or wherever $TMPDIR is on your system)
-```
-
----
-
-## Lessons Learned
-
-1. **tmux is not a streaming server.**
-   - It's a terminal multiplexer. `pipe-pane` is a convenience feature, not a robust data pipeline.
-   - For production, we need direct pty control (node-pty) or a tmux control mode integration.
-
-2. **FIFOs are simple but fragile.**
-   - Single reader, single writer.
-   - No reconnection support.
-   - Works great for PoC, not for production.
-
-3. **xterm.js is excellent.**
-   - Rendered ANSI flawlessly.
-   - Handled alternate screen, colors, cursor positioning without config.
-   - Performance is good even without optimizations.
-
-4. **Latency is not a concern.**
-   - Localhost streaming is effectively real-time (< 50 ms).
-   - WAN will add network RTT, but processing overhead is negligible.
-
-5. **ANSI escape sequences are the right abstraction.**
-   - No need to parse pi's output or re-render.
-   - Stream the bytes, let the client terminal handle rendering.
-   - This validates Principle P-1 from the spec.
-
----
-
-## Go / No-Go Decision
-
-### ✅ **GO for Phase 1**
-
-**Rationale:**
-- All core assumptions validated.
-- tmux + pi works cleanly.
-- WebSocket streaming is fast and accurate.
-- SSH and WS stay in sync.
-- Edge cases are manageable.
-
-**Blockers resolved:**
-- None. The pipe-pane reliability issue is known and addressable.
-
-**Conditions for Phase 1:**
-1. Replace pipe-pane with node-pty OR implement a pipe-pane watchdog that auto-restarts on disconnect.
-2. Implement a ringbuffer in Node.js for replay/snapshot (no more raw FIFO).
-3. Add `permessage-deflate` compression to the WebSocket server.
-4. Test with multiple simultaneous clients (spike only tested 1–2).
-5. Harden error handling (spike has minimal error recovery).
-
----
-
-## Next Steps
-
-1. **Merge `feat/spike-stream` into `main`?**
-   - **Recommendation:** Keep branch, do NOT merge into main.
-   - Rationale: Spike code is throwaway. Phase 1 will rebuild from scratch using the lessons learned.
-   - The report and HTML client are the valuable artifacts, not the spike.ts code.
-
-2. **Phase 1 kick-off:**
-   - Use this report to inform T-1.1 (tmux manager) design.
-   - Decision: node-pty vs. pipe-pane + watchdog → recommend **node-pty** for reliability.
-   - Plan for hybrid mode: tmux for SSH users, node-pty for iOS-only sessions.
-
-3. **Update SYNC.md:**
-   - Mark Phase 0 as `done`.
-   - Set Phase 1 status to `ready to start`.

-
-## Conclusion
-
-Phase 0 successfully validates the core technical approach. The PoC demonstrates that pi's terminal output can be streamed over WebSocket with low latency and high fidelity. The identified pipe-pane reliability issue is not a blocker—it informs Phase 1 architecture decisions.
-
-**Phase 1 is cleared for launch.**

+ *   - Wiring up the WebSocket upgrade handler (see upgrade.ts)
+ *   - Serving LEGACY routes for the browser HTML client (html.ts)

+ *   GET /index.html   — same as /

+ *   GET /icon.svg     — PWA icon
+ *   WS  /ws           — WebSocket endpoint for the browser client

+# Smoke Test Harness
+
+End-to-end smoke tests for the `remote-control` extension. These tests spawn
+a real `pi` subprocess with the extension loaded and hit the HTTP/WebSocket
+endpoints to verify they respond correctly.
+
+## Running
+
+```sh
+npm run smoke
+```
+
+Or directly:
+
+```sh
+node --test scripts/smoke/smoke.mjs
+```
+
+## What is tested (MVP — T-1.0a)
+
+| # | Test | Description |
+|---|------|-------------|
+| 1 | Server starts | pi spawns with `--remote-control`; TCP port opens within 12 s |
+| 2 | `GET /manifest.json` | 200, `application/manifest+json`, parses, has `name`/`short_name`/`start_url` |
+| 3 | `GET /icon.svg` | 200, `image/svg+xml`, body starts with `<svg` |
+| 4 | `GET /` (with token) | 302→200, `text/html`, contains HTML marker |
+| 5 | `GET /` (no token) | 403 Forbidden |
+| 6 | `WS /ws` (with token) | 101 upgrade, WebSocket enters OPEN state |
+| 7 | Process alive | pi hasn't crashed during the test run |
+| T | Teardown | SIGTERM pi, wait for exit, remove temp HOME |
+
+## Port
+
+Default port: **19876**. Override with the `SMOKE_PORT` environment variable:
+
+```sh
+SMOKE_PORT=20000 npm run smoke
+```
+
+## How it works
+
+The harness creates a temporary `HOME` directory containing:
+- `$HOME/.pi/remote-control/config.json` — `publicBaseUrl` + `bindAddress` pointing at `SMOKE_PORT`
+- `$HOME/.pi/remote-control/token` — a known deterministic token for auth
+
+`pi` is spawned with `HOME=<tmpdir>` so **no real `~/.pi` files are read or
+written**. The temp directory is deleted in the `after()` teardown hook even
+if tests fail.
+
+## Authentication
+
+The server requires either a valid session cookie or `?token=<value>` query
+parameter. The smoke tests pre-seed a known token (`smoke-test-token-deterministic-1234`)
+and pass it in the `?token=` parameter. No production auth logic is modified.
+
+## Adding new tests
+
+1. Create a new file `scripts/smoke/<feature>.test.mjs`
+2. Import helpers from `./helpers.mjs`
+3. Import your test file from `smoke.mjs` (or run it standalone with `node --test`)
+
+Example:
+
+```js
+// scripts/smoke/stream.test.mjs
+import { describe, it } from "node:test";
+import { openWebSocket, closeWebSocket } from "./helpers.mjs";
+
+export function registerStreamTests(port, token) {
+  describe("stream tests", () => {
+    it("WS /sessions/:id/stream → 101", async () => {
+      // ...
+    });
+  });
+}
+```
+
+## Flags used
+
+Same flags as `make dev`:
+```
+pi -nt -ne -ns -np -nc --no-session --offline -e extensions/remote-control --remote-control
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+**Port busy**: if `SMOKE_PORT` is already in use, the test will fail at the
+`waitForPort` step. Change the port: `SMOKE_PORT=20001 npm run smoke`.
+
+**pi not found**: ensure `pi` is on your `PATH`. Check with `which pi`.
+
+**Server not starting**: run with verbose output to see what pi logs:
+```sh
+node --test --reporter spec scripts/smoke/smoke.mjs
+```
+The port-wait error will include captured stdout/stderr from pi.

+ * Smoke test — end-to-end validation of the remote-control HTTP/WS server.
+ *
+ * Runs with: node --test scripts/smoke/smoke.mjs
+ * Or:        npm run smoke
+ *
+ * What is tested (MVP):
+ *   1. Server starts  — pi spawns with --remote-control and the HTTP port opens.
+ *   2. GET /manifest.json — 200, application/manifest+json, parses, has name/short_name/start_url.
+ *   3. GET /icon.svg       — 200, image/svg+xml, body starts with <svg.
+ *   4. GET /               — 200 (with auth token), text/html, contains HTML marker.
+ *   5. WS /ws              — successful 101 upgrade (with auth token). Close cleanly.
+ *   6. Teardown            — SIGTERM pi, process exits.
+ *
+ * Auth strategy:
+ *   The server requires a token on GET / and WS /ws. We pre-seed a known token
+ *   in a temporary HOME directory ($HOME/.pi/remote-control/token) and pass it
+ *   via the ?token= query parameter using the existing mechanism. No production
+ *   code is modified.
+ *
+ * Port strategy:
+ *   We write bindAddress + publicBaseUrl to the temporary config so the server
+ *   binds to a deterministic port (SMOKE_PORT env, default 19876). No real
+ *   ~/.pi files are touched.

+ * T-1.8 Integration smoke: stream attach, send-keys, drop + reconnect, delta replay.
+ *
+ * Requires a running pi process with remote-control (spawned by the before() hook).
+ * Re-uses the helpers from helpers.mjs.
+ *
+ * Tests:
+ *  1. POST /sessions  → creates a tmux session
+ *  2. WS /sessions/:id/stream  → attaches, sends { type:"resume"; lastSeq:null }
+ *  3. Receives at least some binary frames (output from the session)
+ *  4. Sends { type:"keys"; data:"echo smoke-marker\n" } via HTTP POST /sessions/:id/input
+ *  5. Observes "smoke-marker" in the stream within timeout
+ *  6. Notes lastSeq, disconnects
+ *  7. Reconnects with { type:"resume"; lastSeq } → receives only delta frames
+ *  8. GET /sessions/:id/thumbnail → text/plain, non-empty
+ *  9. DELETE /sessions/:id → 204
