The Sessions page launches a harness in a new Git worktree with private routing settings. Choose a project, harness, route, and account, review the committed revision and settings, then type LAUNCH. Launch leaves the worktree, branch, and private settings on disk. Cleanup retains the private settings.

Cleanup rejects unsaved changes and shows the ignored files it will delete. A changed file list requires another review. The session branch is deleted only while it still points at the starting commit. If setup fails, the app tries to clean up; existing sessions and user defaults stay unchanged.

In the terminal app, Sessions is page 6. l reviews and launches a session (type LAUNCH), o opens the selected session folder in $VISUAL or $EDITOR, d reviews and removes the session (type REMOVE), and n adds an account. s selects the next recorded session. The session table shows each session's ID, repository, route, creation time, and last recorded call; the details card adds the branch and worktree.

Walkthrough

The desktop application adds managed worktree sessions for CLI harnesses. It previews projects and launches sessions with isolated settings. It also inventories and reviews session cleanup, and adds corresponding controller actions and TUI flows.

Changes

Managed Worktree Sessions

Layer / File(s) Summary
Session inventory and guarded cleanup
crates/switchyard-desktop/src/sessions.rs
Project previews report repository state. Session inventory reads receipts, and cleanup validates reviewed state before removing a worktree. Tests cover cleanup and session validation.
Isolated worktree launch
crates/switchyard-desktop/src/sessions.rs, crates/switchyard-desktop/src/harness.rs
Launch creates a Git worktree, installs isolated harness settings, writes a session receipt, and opens a platform-specific terminal command. Failed setup removes pending session resources.
Controller previews and review checks
crates/switchyard-desktop/src/controller.rs
Controller actions and snapshots support session inventory, launch previews, and cleanup previews. Launch and removal require matching reviewed inputs and tokens. Tests check that stale reviews do not cause launch side effects.
Desktop session and settings UI
crates/switchyard-desktop/src/tui.rs
The TUI adds project-path launch and a LAUNCH confirmation. It adds a Settings page and updates account and server-configuration controls. Tests cover editing pasted Unicode paths.

Worktree sessions are additive and launch is guarded against stale reviews. Before merging, three bounded fixes remain. Cleanup can delete git-ignored files in a session worktree without listing them first. A session can get stuck in the list if Git keeps its branch after the worktree is removed. Cancelling a launch can leave empty settings sections on the Settings page.

A rabbit checks the worktree, neat and bright,
Then plants a session branch beneath the moon.
Isolated settings sit tucked away,
A reviewed token guards the launch today,
And clean paths lead the rabbit home by noon.

Review comments at @crates/switchyard-desktop/src/sessions.rs:
- Line 162: Update cleanup_preview to collect ignored paths from git status
using the ignored-status option, store them in the receipt under ignored, and
update cleanup_notice to warn that cleanup deletes the listed ignored files.
Preserve the existing preview comparison so changes to ignored files require
renewed review.
- Around line 198-206: Update cleanup and PendingSession::drop to verify the
session branch tip via git rev-parse against the recorded revision before
deleting it, then use git branch -D only when unchanged. Preserve the existing
fallback message when verification or deletion fails, and ensure cleanup no
longer leaves a removed worktree with an undeletable session entry.

Review comments at @crates/switchyard-desktop/src/tui.rs:
- Around line 409-433: Update the Escape/cancellation handling for the form flow
to detect when the active form is FormKind::ConfirmLaunch and clear the launch
preview before closing the form. Set the relevant preview state to None while
preserving existing scroll restoration and form dismissal behavior for other
form kinds.

Closing this PR in favor of a stack of 39 smaller PRs. The changes from this PR are now in #1109 through #1112. The last PR in the new stack ends in the same code as the old stack, except that Form::choices in crates/switchyard-desktop/src/tui.rs calls .as_chunks::<2>().0.iter() in place of .chunks_exact(2). main now pins Rust 1.99, whose clippy flags .chunks_exact(2) there, and CI treats clippy warnings as errors.
