What changed

Add optional native APFS copy-on-write session isolation on macOS alongside Local and Git worktrees. It clones the current checkout into a private Git repository while reusing the existing Changes, Git, review, archive, and deletion flows.

Why

Worktrees start from committed branch contents. Copy-on-write lets a session start with current dirty edits and ignored local files without an ordinary full-file copy or shared mutable checkout.

Summary

  • Use APFS fclonefileat for regular files, including Git objects; unsupported platforms, filesystems, and repository layouts fail explicitly. Linux and Windows retain Local and worktrees. There is no byte-copy fallback.
  • Rename Workspace to Isolation and Worktrees settings to Work Isolation. Add New copy-on-write with a distinct icon, the existing base selector, workspace indications, and the Local / New worktree / New copy-on-write default setting.
  • Preserve a private index, refs, objects, remotes, and effective Git configuration. Reuse normal staging, commits, history, first publish, later sync, and PR controls; the production GitChangesPanel is unchanged.
  • Integrate session creation, quick composer, automations, handoffs, workspace navigation, and orchestrated workers with the existing lifecycle and completed-turn checkpoints. Worker delta integration excludes inherited changes.
  • Validate owned paths and directory identities; keep ownership records and worker baselines outside the session checkout. Internal operations disable hooks/filters and remote transports; normal user Git operations retain effective authentication and conversion settings.
  • Retain archived copies. Deletion uses shared confirmation and session-retention controls, refuses active processes, preserves branches/tags/commits/all stash entries, and journals session detachment for recovery. Forced deletion cannot bypass history-retention failures.
  • Build and package the native helper for macOS hosts, require APFS integration coverage in CI, and preserve ordinary workspace discovery on older remote hosts without CoW commands.
  • Merge current main through 9ccfc09 (v0.8.0) and preserve its searchable sidebar switcher, worktree creation, composer file-drop handling, and updated session-history behavior. Queued messages persist alongside CoW ownership and workspace settings; persistent-agent additions and isolation-default settings are retained. CoW search and selection retain authoritative session ownership; worktree creation from CoW focus uses the project repository.

Check Result
MONOCODE_REQUIRE_COW=1 npm run check Passed: 4,778 frontend tests, 13 skipped; TypeScript; Rust formatting and Clippy; 565 desktop + 13 native tests, 1 ignored
npm run test:host Passed: 120 tests, 5 skipped (APFS coverage required)
npm run build Passed; Vite reports its existing large-chunk advisory
npm run host:package Passed: macOS arm64 package, Node 24.21.0
Native APFS/Git integration Real filesystem clones, local repositories/bare remotes, authentication/configuration, worker integration, stashes and interrupted cleanup
UI captures Actual components in Playwright with generic fixtures; before/after menu and settings, CoW indication and shared Git controls
Diagrams Mermaid parsing, SVG XML, and rendered appearance verified

Local checks ran on macOS arm64 with Node 26.8.2 (NODE_OPTIONS=--no-experimental-webstorage). Linux/Windows runtime builds and native desktop/provider interaction are not claimed as locally verified; the existing CI matrix remains responsible for those platforms. PR creation controls are covered by frontend tests, not an end-to-end live GitHub operation from a CoW session.

Review fixes

  • Batch snapshot blob imports in one Git process and validate clones through metadata rather than repeatedly reading ignored contents.
  • Return compact public workspace metadata. Authorize host requests asynchronously outside SQLite transactions, with lightweight ownership reads that remain available during isolation mutations.
  • Record durable creation intent before copying files; recover abandoned creations through verified directory identities. A real SIGKILL test after cloning an ignored secret confirms owned orphan cleanup and source preservation.
  • Keep session-created refs during cleanup without resurrecting untouched inherited branches or tags. Preserve the shared removal flow and avoid marking copies removed after transient listing failures.
  • Fix quick launch/base selection, stale composer shortcuts (committed props only; cancel pending cycling after manual isolation selection), remote creation failure settlement, immutable add-to-chat metadata, listing errors, and the session-store covering index. Require APFS host integration tests on macOS CI.

Boundaries

  • This isolates files, not provider permissions, ports, databases, or external services. Existing ignored dependencies and checkout secrets are included in the copy.
  • External symlinks, nested repositories, submodules, unresolved/sparse/split indexes, shallow/partial clones, object alternates, and other unsupported layouts are rejected explicitly.
  • A different base branch is rejected when effective Git filters are configured; current-HEAD copies remain supported. Internal creation never runs configured filters.
  • Filters that prevent a safe internal cleanliness check block automatic cleanup; users can review Changes and use explicit deletion confirmation. Forced deletion can discard uncommitted edits, while committed and stashed work is retained first.
  • Cross-platform CI results are pending. No deployment or release is included.

Checklist

  • I ran npm run check
  • This PR is small and focused
  • I did not mix unrelated changes

The unchecked size item is intentional. The implementation is focused on one isolation option, but adds a native helper and connects it to existing desktop/host lifecycle paths. No provider adapter or separate Changes/Git product path is added.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change adds copy-on-write workspaces on macOS APFS alongside local and Git worktree isolation. It adds native workspace operations and connects them to host, Tauri, session, remote, automation, orchestration, and workspace-selection flows. Linux and Windows report copy-on-write as unsupported.

Changes

Copy-on-Write Isolation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Native workspace engine and packaging
crates/isolation/*, Cargo.toml, .github/workflows/*, host/build.mjs, host/package.mjs, docs/work-isolation.md, docs/assets/work-isolation/*
Adds the monocode-isolation Rust package. It validates repositories, creates APFS copies, captures and applies file changes, and handles removal and history preservation. CI tests the native implementation, and release packaging includes macOS helpers.
Host command routing and removal recovery
host/cow.ts, host/engine.ts, host/server.ts, host/store.ts, host/workspace-commands.ts, host/*.test.ts
Adds native-helper invocation and host routing for copy-on-write workspaces. Host sessions validate workspace ownership. Host removal journals session changes and supports recovery.
Tauri commands and persisted session state
src-tauri/src/cow.rs, src-tauri/src/lib.rs, src-tauri/src/worktrees.rs, src-tauri/src/session_store.rs, src-tauri/src/fs.rs, src-tauri/src/automations.rs, src-tauri/src/quick_composer.rs, src-tauri/Cargo.toml
Registers Tauri commands for copy-on-write operations. Session metadata persists copy identity and isolation settings. Removal checks checkout identity and journals session detachment and recovery.
Session lifecycle and workspace selection
src/app/App.tsx, src/app/model/*, src/app/hooks/*, src/features/sessions/*, src/features/workspace/*, src/features/source-control/*, src/features/settings/*
Adds copy-on-write session creation, restoration, navigation, workspace listing, and deletion. Workspace selection and composer controls include copy-on-write mode and capability feedback.
Remote, automation, and orchestration flows
src/features/connections/*, src/features/agent-app/*, src/features/automations/*, src/features/orchestration/*, src/features/quick-composer/*, src/platform/tauri/fs.ts, src-tauri/src/control_cli.rs, src-tauri/src/checkpoint.rs
Adds copy-on-write support to remote commands and sessions, automation and quick-launch validation, and orchestration workspace handling. Remote sessions can retain and reuse a pending copy tied to the shell session.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to a8aa9

Cancelled copy-on-write submissions clear their preparing state, and definitive remote creation failures settle the waiting turn. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a8aa9

Project and filesystem identity checks limit exposure, but interrupted deletion can strand an intact copy. Delegated-work acceptance also has a remaining change-attribution gap whose effective reachability needs confirmation.

Retained concerns

  • Medium · reliability · inferred: If removal stops after publishing removal_path but before renaming the checkout, cleanup returns without clearing the marker. Session recovery can restore the surviving sessions, but ownership checks still reject the intact copy, including the guarded entrypoints needed to retry deletion. This leaves ownership and rollback state inconsistent across layers.
  • Medium · security · inferred: CoW worker acceptance integrates the eligible workspace delta without consulting task scopes or the checkpoint's prepared, touched and attributed paths. The prior worktree path rejects uncaptured, unattributed and post-checkpoint edits. Checked write events and explicit completed-task acceptance remain important controls, but an edit not represented by those events could now reach the lead checkout during acceptance. Destination checks contain this to the registered project/source checkout; event completeness and independent sandbox enforcement remain unverified.
Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated integration authority is bounded to the recorded project/source checkout, but it covers the eligible workspace delta rather than an individual assignment's file set. Copies also inherit local checkout contents and selected Git authentication settings; CoW separation does not establish an independent process or credential sandbox.

Security Findings and Attack Paths

  • inferred — A worker edit outside its assignment could reach the lead checkout if it is absent from checked write events and the completed task is accepted. The CoW route does not perform the prior checkpoint attribution validation. This is a source-supported conditional attack path, not a verified exploit; independent restrictions and event completeness remain unresolved.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Workspace navigation checks session ownership, project identity and selected path. Host commands bind creation to a registered project, while native loading checks canonical ownership and recorded root identity. Host use also checks checkout and Git-directory device/inode identities.
  • observed — Internal Git execution removes inherited GIT_* variables and overrides executable configuration and network transports. These controls separate isolation bookkeeping from ordinary Git operations that intentionally retain effective authentication and conversion settings.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

  • inferred — Pending-removal ownership checks fail closed, preventing stale copies from authorizing use. However, session restoration and native recovery do not converge after a pre-rename interruption, so managed data can remain present but inaccessible through normal use and deletion controls.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — Make surviving-checkout recovery reconcile native removal state and session journals together, either safely cancelling removal after identity validation or completing guarded deletion before reporting a terminal state.
  • proposed — Validate the complete CoW worker delta against approved assignment scope and completed-turn attribution before modifying the lead checkout, retaining the existing baseline conflict and retry checks.

src/features/connections/ui/RemoteSession.tsx:884-888
🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Settle the turn when the host rejects or loses the create command.

run calls settleTurn(command.commandId, …) when the host rejects a request. For the create command, that commandId is a new UUID, not turn.commandId. The tracked settlement therefore stays registered. If run returns undefined, Lines 885-888 mark the turn as failed and return without calling settleTurn(turn.commandId, …). The Lines 840-867 worktree-failure path also returns without settling. Orchestration and internal callers that wait on onSettled then wait until the component unmounts. Call settleTurn with turn.commandId on each failure return. Exclude the lost-response retry case, because a retry can still deliver the turn.

src/features/sessions/ui/Composer.tsx (1)

1867-1881: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Recheck the session state after the async cowCapability call returns.

The mode change runs after an IPC round trip and uses the workspaceMode value from when the shortcut was pressed. If the user presses the shortcut twice quickly, both callbacks compute their next mode from the same starting mode. The first send can also start during that window. Cache the capability per cwd, or recompute the next mode from current props when the promise resolves.

1597-1604: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Do not mutate added after applyAddToChatRequest returns.

This code writes directly to added.cwd and to other fields of the new session object. It also sets added.cwd = source.cwd while result.tabs was grouped under the earlier cwd. The mutation works only because the arrays are committed afterward. Build a replacement object and map it into result.sessions instead.

683-695: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Restore all journaled sessions only when every copy-owned session matches the original copy identity.

The recovery logic in Lines 685-695 reads identity from the first saved session that has cow_root_identity or cow_id, then applies the result to every session in the batch. prepare_removal gives every session the same identity because path is shared, so this is correct as written. The design is fragile, however: the result depends on the first matching entry, and a session without copy metadata is restored only because a peer has it. Store the identity once per journal entry, not per session. Do this only if the journal format is revised later. No change is required now.

Review comments at @crates/isolation/src/lib.rs:
- Around line 871-898: Update the file-hashing loop in tree() to batch
regular-file paths through a single git hash-object --stdin-paths process
instead of spawning one process per file. Preserve symlink target-text hashing
and associate each returned OID with its corresponding path when building
entries.
- Around line 1151-1163: Update the `head != source_head` checkout path so `git
checkout` honors the copied filter configuration instead of disabling its filter
drivers; preserve the existing checkout behavior for the current-HEAD path.
- Around line 1558-1599: Update Workspace creation and preserve_history to
record the creation-time OIDs of copied refs, then skip preserving refs whose
OIDs have not changed since creation. This prevents removal from recreating
deleted source branches or retaining unrelated branches the session never
modified.
- Line 1117: Replace content hashing in fingerprint() and its calls from create
with a metadata-based fingerprint using inode, size, nanosecond mtime/ctime,
mode, and symlink target; preserve the before/after change detection performed
by clone_tree. Apply it at least to ignored files so fingerprinting does not
read their contents.

Review comments at @host/engine.ts:
- Around line 435-440: Remove synchronous hostCowSync calls from the command
path: resolve copy ownership asynchronously before entering
this.store.transaction, using hostCow and a lightweight owner-by-ID lookup that
skips dirty and unpublished calculations. Update ownedHostCow and
resolveHostWorkspace usage in command, and apply the same lightweight lookup to
resolveHostWorkspaceAsync in host/server.ts and allowedRoots in
host/workspace-commands.ts so these paths avoid full listings and waiting on the
global lock.

Review comments at @src-tauri/src/quick_composer.rs:
- Around line 327-332: Update the `worktree_base` validation in the
quick-composer request checks to accept a non-empty base when `workspace_mode`
is either `worktree` or `cow`; continue rejecting blank bases and bases supplied
for other modes.

Review comments at @src/app/App.tsx:
- Around line 4667-4671: Update the COW cleanup flow in setSessionDeleteDialog
to offer cleanup only when the matching copy belongs exclusively to the session,
using worktreeSessionIds against sessionsRef.current. Pass the COW details to
DeleteSessionDialog so it presents the correct cleanup option, and route removal
through the existing onRemoveWorktree handling rather than calling
removeCowWorkspace directly, preserving its session-stop and detach behavior.

Review comments at @src/app/model/appLifecycle.ts:
- Around line 318-329: In the workspace session validation flow, use
`sameProjectPath` to compare `copy.path` with `session.worktreeCwd` so
path-format differences do not mark a valid copy removed. If `listCowWorkspaces`
fails, skip removal validation for that session instead of treating the failure
as an empty result; keep the change scoped to this flow.

Review comments at @src/features/agent-app/model/agentApp.test.ts:
- Around line 324-331: Update the test that saves the default isolation mode
with saveDefaultIsolationMode to restore the prior default after its assertions,
using a finally block or existing cleanup hook. Ensure later tests that create
sessions with newSession still use the intended default regardless of test
order.

Review comments at @src/features/quick-composer/model/quickWorkspace.ts:
- Around line 82-83: Update the `"current"` branch in the quickWorkspace launch
handling to explicitly clear `worktreeCwd` alongside `workspaceMode` and
`worktreeBase`, ensuring the returned session uses the main checkout.

Review comments at @src/features/source-control/ui/WorktreesPage.tsx:
- Around line 91-117: Separate CoW listing failures from removal errors in the
WorktreesPage listing effect: add dedicated listing-error state, store
listCowWorkspaces rejections there, clear it when a listing succeeds, and render
its alert separately from the removal-error alert.

327-332: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Allow worktree_base for cow mode.

Line 329 still rejects worktree_base when the mode is "cow". A quick launch with workspaceMode: "cow" and a base therefore fails validation.

Review comment at @src-tauri/src/quick_composer.rs around lines 327 - 332:
Update the worktree_base validation in the request validation condition so a
nonblank base is accepted for both "worktree" and "cow" workspace modes, while
still rejecting it for other modes. Preserve the existing blank-base validation.

Review comments at @.github/workflows/ci.yml:
- Line 25: Update the `npm run test:host` step in the CI workflow to set
`MONOCODE_REQUIRE_COW` to `1` on macOS and leave it unset or empty on other
platforms, so the macOS host tests fail when copy-on-write support is
unavailable.

Review comments at @crates/isolation/src/lib.rs:
- Around line 1836-1838: Keep Workspace as the persisted record, but add a
public response view containing only fields the host reads. Update the cow_list
serialization around `serde_json::to_value` and the `cow_create` response to
serialize that view instead of the full Workspace, excluding internal fields
such as `excluded`, `baseline`, `identity`, and `removal_path` while preserving
the public `rootIdentity` field.

Review comments at @host/workspace-commands.ts:
- Around line 291-297: Update allowedRoots around the hostCow “cow_list” call to
handle per-project failures by falling back to project.cwd, matching the
existing hostWorktrees fallback. Preserve the current filtering and path
collection when the call succeeds.

Review comments at @src-tauri/src/session_store.rs:
- Line 1602: Update the sessions_cwd_cover_idx definition in a new migration and
its restore block to include cow_id, then update
list_by_project_is_served_by_a_covering_index to check the list_by_project
projection including cow_id.

- Line 645: Update the assignment to workspaceShortcutRef.current so it runs in
a layout effect rather than during render, ensuring pending capability callbacks
read only workspace values and callbacks from the committed render.
- Around line 1897-1900: In the pending shortcut callback using
workspaceShortcutRef, compare the captured workspace mode with the latest mode
and stop cycling if they differ; preserve the existing session checks and
cycling behavior when the mode is unchanged.
