There is no ctrl-k on a phone and the web UI is mobile-first, so the field
the operator already reaches for becomes the touch entry point: focusing or
tapping it dispatches OPEN_COMMAND_BAR_EVENT and the shell opens the bar with
an empty query. The field is readonly and blurs itself first, so no keyboard
rises over it and the bar can be closed without reopening it.
This replaces the inline substring filter — one search affordance in the
header, not two. buildTree loses its filter argument, and the tree's "No
matches" empty state goes with it; the bar's own no-results state took over.
The filter's name-and-directory matching is now covered against the bar.
The bar's phone-width sheet moves to the spawn modal's 599px break, with
thumb-sized rows and a field that clears the zoom-on-focus threshold.

ctrl-a is consumed as the leader on every press, so it never reaches the
shell and readline's beginning-of-line was gone with no way back — unlike
Ctrl-K, which already has an escape hatch. Fix it the way tmux does:
pressing the leader twice sends the literal leader byte to the focused
pane and clears the pending chord, on both web and TUI, built from the
configured leader so a rebound leader carries it.

Tab on a highlighted session in the web command bar opens that session's
action page in the same overlay: kill, rename, spawn similar, still fuzzy
searchable and headed by the session's name. Escape, or backspace at an
empty query, returns to the result list with the previous query intact.
Each action raises the flow the card already has. The two that lived
inside the sidebar get an event apiece — the confirm-and-blockers kill and
the inline rename prompt — so the bar picks the action and nothing more;
spawn similar reuses the existing SPAWN_SIMILAR_EVENT.
The global listener already ran in the capture phase, but deferred to
isTypingTarget, so xterm's hidden textarea kept Ctrl-K. The bar now treats
that textarea as not a typing target, while real form fields — the spawn
form's inputs — keep their own Ctrl-K.
Leader then ctrl-k (ctrl-a ctrl-k) sends the literal 0x0B to the focused
pane through the leader chord the command set already resolves, so
readline's kill-to-end-of-line stays reachable. The pool grows a
sendToFocused for it, over a new AttachConnection.sendInput.

`>` narrows the bar to commands, matched on the label only with the chord
shown beside each row and deduped by action. `~` narrows to directories over
recent dirs and the project list, filled in from /api/dirs as a path is typed;
Enter fast-forward-spawns there, falling back to the pre-filled spawn form
when a default cannot resolve. Without a sigil the list stays mixed.

Hovering the session already in the pane put the preview tint over its accent fill, so the row that is on screen looked unpicked. Tier 5 now skips `.is-active`.
The web list still said "open in the focused pane" with a 1px ring, the last
edge left in it, and the TUI said it with the ● glyph alone. Both now use a
background.
Web: `--accent-fill`, the same 30% recipe `--preview-tint` uses, so the two
tiers differ by hue rather than by strength. The row rules are also rewritten
as one ordered run of equal-specificity `:where()` selectors, which is what
`docs/SIDEBAR.md` claims the ladder is — `.is-open` moves in from the bottom
of the multi-view block, where source order had been deciding its precedence
by accident.
TUI: `palette.pane_row_bg()`, blended partway from the card surface to the
selection surface, so the sidebar reads unfilled / half filled / filled. It
borrows the selection surface's foregrounds, since those are the ones picked
for a filled row, and the cursor still wins on its own row. Blended rather
than shipped as a third `Surface` — that would be eight more colours in each
of seventeen presets — with palette tests asserting it stays a visible step
from both surfaces and stays legible in every preset.
The overlay, the query line and the session half of the results
(docs/COMMAND-BAR.md): an empty query lists sessions most recently
focused first, typing ranks through `matchAndRank` with the winning
field's ranges highlighted, and results render under kind headers
ordered by their best-scoring member.
Enter dispatches `SESSION_SELECT_EVENT`, the path the sidebar's click
and the hash router already share, so a bar attach cannot leave the
layout in a state a click could not produce.
The global key listener moves to the capture phase, which #148 left
alone: an attached xterm swallows every keystroke it is given, so
ctrl-k has to be seen ahead of the terminal.

The daemon ships the field (#145) but web/src/types.ts is a hand-kept
mirror of the protocol crate, so it did not know about it. #149 sorts the
command bar's empty query by it.
One entry per command — stable id, plain-language label, key chord, run()
— replacing the ad-hoc keydown listeners in main.ts, catalog.ts, debug.ts
and attach.ts and the parallel SHORTCUTS constant in help.ts. The `?`
overlay now renders the registry, so a binding and its documentation
cannot disagree.
Keys are canonicalised the way the TUI's `InputKey::canonical` spells
them, and chords resolve like its `ChordState`: hold while the sequence
is a strict prefix, otherwise dispatch. That gives the web a leader,
`ctrl-a` by default like `[tui].leader`, held as a partial chord and
`preventDefault`ed so it stops being select-all — the escape hatch in
docs/COMMAND-BAR.md needs somewhere to land (#149). The leader stays out
of real form fields, where select-all is still what the operator wants.
Same keys, same effects: plain single-key bindings remain deaf inside
form fields and the terminal's hidden textarea, chorded ones do not.

The previewed row and the keyboard cursor both drew a 2px inset ring, which
read as a border on hover rather than as a colour. Rows now carry the preview
hue as a fill: a light wash under the pointer or the cursor, deepening to an
opaque `--preview-tint` once the preview lands.
That leaves `.is-active`'s ring as the only one in the session list, where it
now means exactly one thing — open in a pane. The pane's titlebar drops its
hairline for the same reason; the dashed edges that remain belong to the
canvas and the throwaway tab.
The pane waited 150 ms on hover and 60 ms on a keyboard step before
following the sidebar highlight, so every preview paid for the fast walk
it might have been. Replace both with a leading-edge 120 ms gap: the
first move shows at once, a burst is coalesced to its start and its end.
The row's own hover no longer eases either — `background` was on a 120 ms
transition, which is what read as lag on the row itself.
The sidebar also rebuilt its whole tree on every `SessionUpdated`, a
couple of times a minute per live session, dropping `:hover` from the row
under the pointer. Refreshes that change nothing structural now patch the
activity rail and meta line into the standing rows instead.

A preview was distinguished only by the chip and a dashed ring, both easy to
miss, and the sidebar's hover reused the neutral surface — so a hovered row
said nothing about what the content pane was showing.
Adds a `--preview` token family on a hue of its own, deliberately not the
accent: the accent means "this is the one you picked", which a preview is not.
The previewed pane's titlebar, the chip, the throwaway tab, the previewed
sidebar row and hover all carry it. Palettes whose accent is already violet
(periwinkle, orchid) move the hue via `--preview-h`.
Two mounts were taking focus out of the sidebar mid-walk: the render that
put the multi-view on screen before the preview applied, and the render
that restores the previous pane when a preview ends. Both now mount
without focusing, so j/k keeps walking. Also marks the preview with a
badge on the canvas and drops the close button from its tab.
Moving the sidebar highlight (keyboard or hover) now shows that session in
the content pane without opening it: its own tab comes forward, or a
throwaway tab carries it. The layout, the saved layout and the daemon's
focus report are all left untouched, and the keyboard stays in the list.
Contract in docs/PREVIEW.md.
Spawn was `s`/`S` in the TUI and `n`/`N` in the web client; the TUI now
uses `n`/`N` too. The web sidebar gains `c`, `r` and `x` — collapse,
rename, kill — which the TUI already bound.
docs/SIDEBAR.md now carries the shared table, so a new binding has one
place to land on both clients.

xterm's DOM renderer builds a node per cell, which is CPU-bound — the
wrong bottleneck on a phone, where an agent dumping output stutters
visibly on a Pixel 7 despite plenty of GPU headroom.
A WebGL context is scarce and revocable, so it follows the mounted view
rather than the connection: acquired in onMount, released in onUnmount.
ConnectionPool keeps MAX_PARKED connections alive behind the visible
ones, which would otherwise exceed the browser's context cap (~16 on
desktop Chrome, fewer on Android) and bring a parked terminal back
blank. Context loss falls back to the DOM renderer and retries against a
shared two-loss budget; a device that keeps dropping contexts stops
being asked. A device pixel ratio change rebuilds the glyph atlas, which
is otherwise left blurry.

The dialog capped at 92vh and scrolled its whole body, so the Spawn button
sat below the fold on a phone. Below 600px it now fills the viewport, the
pickers drop their own scroll caps, and the actions row sticks to the bottom
edge.
The browser reached the daemon through maestro-web, a second binary that
served the SPA and reverse-proxied /api/* — two TCP connections and a
WebSocket frame re-encode on every keystroke and every byte of PTY output.
On one machine that hop buys nothing.
The daemon now embeds the bundle and serves it off its own listener, behind
a default-on `web` feature. `--no-default-features` builds without pnpm or
node; MAESTRO_WEB_DIST still takes a prebuilt bundle.
The router's fallback answers an unmatched /api/* with 404 rather than the
SPA shell, so a client expecting JSON gets a status it can read instead of
HTML.
Removes maestro-web and the [web] config section. An existing [web] block
is ignored, not rejected. The installer deletes a leftover
maestro-web.service on upgrade.

A session's rail glows AwaitingInput even after the operator has already
looked at it. Clients now report pane focus (POST /:id/focus); the daemon
clears the glow to Idle after 5s of continuous focus and keeps it cleared
until the session does new work, so a fresh Active cycle is required to
glow again.
The name field starts empty and the reroll is gone; the worktree branch keeps
a default by borrowing one handle from /api/names. A card whose name the
daemon generated renders dimmed until a first prompt settles it.
Refs #131
Tab now moves the keyboard from the session list to the pane (was
Escape); Escape moves it back from the pane to the list, intercepted via
xterm's attachCustomKeyEventHandler so it never reaches the shell/app.
Matches the TUI's `tab`/`esc` pair; Ctrl+Q was ruled out since browsers
reserve it and never deliver it to page JS.

Sidebar rows only navigated via location.hash + hashchange. Moving
pane focus by split, drag, or direct pane click never touched the
hash, so a later click back onto a session whose row href matched the
stale hash fired no hashchange and was silently ignored — the pane
had to be clicked directly to regain focus.
Row clicks now also dispatch a session-select event handled the same
way as a hash deep-link, independent of whether the hash text changes.
N picked the globally freshest project by git-mtime, ignoring the session
the operator was actually on. Plain n's spawn form already seeds from the
focused session (spawnSimilarProjectSeed); fast-forward now matches that,
falling back to recency only when nothing is focused.
Rail now spans full row height flush to the left edge with square
corners, instead of a depth-shifted inset bar. Active state stays
solid green since colour alone already signals it; blink/flash stay
for awaiting-input/error.
Meta line fragment order was command last, after the blocked-work diff
stat, so the tool icon sat right of the diff count instead of left.
Reorder to duration/detail/command/diff-stat in both web and TUI
sidebars per docs/SIDEBAR.md, and update the contract doc + TUI tests
to match.

Replaces the inline activity dot with a coloured bar positioned inside
each row's own indent gutter, per the updated docs/SIDEBAR.md contract.
Active breathes, awaiting-input blinks, error flashes; idle stays
solid. prefers-reduced-motion leaves every state static.
Graphite replaces the signal-green accent as the default web palette;
data-palette on <html> selects ice-cyan, periwinkle, amber-phosphor,
ember or orchid (each with dark + light token sets), picked from a new
sidebar-footer dropdown and persisted in localStorage.

PgUp/PgDn and the `- / | ~` symbols the soft keyboard buries behind a page
switch join the bar, in an 8-column grid that keeps the cursor inverted-T.
Columns hold a thumb's width, so a narrow phone scrolls the bar sideways
instead of shrinking the caps.
Closes#7
The picker now leads the form in both clients and takes focus on open, so
Tab walks from it into the command tiles. Opening the form also preselects
the project of the session you were last on — a worktree session seeds its
base repository — so 'n' then Enter spawns another session there.
The sidebar footer gains a status dot beside the spawn button: green while the
daemon answers, amber while reconnecting, red while it is gone. Hovering it
shows the release the daemon is running — commit hash and commit date.
When the events socket drops, `DaemonLink` starts polling `GET /api/info`. Past
a 1200 ms grace window an overlay blocks the UI (and swallows the app's
shortcuts) until the daemon answers again. If it comes back on a different
commit the page reloads, so a tab never drives new server code from the bundle
that was just replaced; a plain restart just unlocks.
docs/RESTART.md is the contract.

`GET /api/info` now carries `build` (commit hash, commit date, dirty flag)
and `instance`, a fresh uuid per daemon process. Together they let a client
name the release it is talking to and, after losing its socket, tell an
upgrade from a plain restart from a network blip.
The stamp comes from `maestro-daemon/build.rs`, which reads the git checkout
it compiles in. The Nix build has no `.git` in the crane-filtered source, so
`flake.nix` passes the flake's own revision and last-modified date through
`MAESTRO_BUILD_*` instead. Neither available leaves the fields empty.

Draft panes are gone: an empty pane is a placeholder again, and every
spawn affordance opens a dialog around the shared spawn form. Escape,
Cancel, the ✕ and a backdrop click dismiss it; a successful submit puts
the session in a new tab (Spawn similar and the fast-forward fallback
keep placing it beside the pane they acted on).
Removes the per-leaf draft state, its persistence strip, and the form
reuse/teardown machinery the panes needed.
