Route FS/git REST through the active profile, mount the remote folder picker
at app root, keep the project dialog open while picking, show a first-run
blank state, flip into grouped view on create, and constrain the picker scroll
area so Select stays reachable.
Let UI callers ask for folders/files without knowing remote-picker limits:
selectDesktopPaths now normalizes remote directory selection to a single folder
inside the facade. Project creation and composer context picking no longer branch
on remote mode; they route through desktop-fs helpers just like git callers route
through desktopGit(). Behavior unchanged except remote folder context now works
through the same backend picker path.
writeProjectIdea used the local-only Electron writeTextFile, so on a remote
gateway IDEA.md never landed on the backend (where the project folder lives).
Route it through writeDesktopFileText (local Electron / POST /api/fs/write-text).
After the folder picker fix, an added remote folder was still half-usable:
the desktop's git GUI (coding-rail status, worktree lanes, review pane,
branch switch, file diff) all ran Electron-local git on the USER's machine,
so against a remote-gateway repo they silently degraded to empty.
Mirror the whole surface over the dashboard REST API so it acts on the
BACKEND repo where sessions actually run:
- hermes_cli/web_git.py: git/gh logic (status, worktrees, branches, review
list/diff/stage/unstage/revert/commit/commit-context/push/ship-info/
create-pr, file-diff, worktree add/remove, branch switch) shelling to the
system git, mirroring the Electron ops' shapes.
- web_server.py: /api/git/* routes (same auth gate + _fs_path hardening as
/api/fs, executor-offloaded, mutations -> 400).
- apps/desktop desktop-git.ts: remote-aware facade exposing the same shape as
window.hermesDesktop.git; coding-status / review / projects / model /
desktop-fs route through desktopGit() so local stays Electron, remote hits
/api/git/*.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server_git.py (real repo: status counts,
review classification, diff incl. untracked all-add, stage+commit roundtrip,
worktree/branch lifecycle, commit-context, gh-absent ship-info, auth) and
desktop-git.test.ts (local vs remote routing, envelope unwrap, POST bodies).
The new-project / add-folder dialog (PR #49037) picked folders via the
native Electron dialog (pickDefaultProjectDir), which only browses the
LOCAL machine. On a remote gateway that picks a path that doesn't exist
on the backend where sessions actually run.
Route pickProjectFolder() through selectDesktopPaths({directories,
multiple:false}) — the same remote-aware path the retired right-sidebar
picker used: local mode opens the native directory dialog, remote mode
browses the backend filesystem via the in-app RemoteFolderPicker. Seed
it with the backend's default cwd on remote so it opens somewhere useful.
Bring apps/desktop and ui-tui to a clean state for typecheck, eslint,
and prettier:
- Run prettier across both trees (printWidth/wrap drift; prettier is not
CI-enforced for these JS projects, so main had accumulated drift).
- Apply eslint --fix for padding-line-between-statements and perfectionist
import/export sorting.
- Manual fixes for non-auto-fixable rules:
- remove unused node:net import in electron/main.cjs (uses Electron net)
- replace inline `typeof import(...)` annotations with top-level
`import type * as EnvModule` in two ui-tui test files
- scoped eslint-disable no-control-regex on intentional sentinel/ANSI
regexes (mathUnicode.ts, text.ts)
- resolve react-hooks/exhaustive-deps per-case: correct swapped/missing
deps, collapse redundant session.* members, and justified disables on
settings mount-only data-load effects to preserve run-once behavior
No behavior changes; test pass/fail counts are unchanged from the main
baseline.
