Chat-first workbench

Contract

The chat remains the primary surface. Workspace apps are a bounded discovery rail, not a second navigation system. An app pane is opened from an explicit app selection or a completed open_app action and carries only an app id plus a validated app-relative path or view.

Client behavior

  • The preference is opt-in and local to the client. Keep the existing app-first shell unchanged when it is disabled.
  • Electron uses the shared Code Agents rail and AppWebview.
  • Dispatch uses list-workspace-apps and create_embed_session; never iframe a raw workspace URL. Resolve an absolute open_app URL against the registered app first, then pass the resulting app-relative path.
  • Mobile uses the existing app registry and secure AppWebView routes instead of accepting arbitrary URLs or adding a second navigator.
  • Show no nested app sidebar or browser chrome in a contextual pane.
  • The app shelf is capped at six visible entries. Pinning and drag-reordering are device-local presentation preferences; the agent-visible target remains the registered app id and route.

Agent and state boundaries

  • Keep app discovery, embed-session minting, and thread operations on the existing action surfaces.
  • Emit the shared chat-first open-app event only for the completed first-party open_app action with a real app, path, or view. A missing or unreadable result is not success, and namespaced third-party tools cannot steer the pane.
  • Both web and desktop resolve the event through the same core origin/base-path allow-list. An unresolved target produces a visible notice and no pane.
  • If the agent needs to know which app is visible, expose a compact application-state selection instead of scraping the iframe DOM.
  • Cloud handoff is a future execution-residence seam. Do not claim that a local run has moved to a worker until a durable worker snapshot and readback exist.

Verification

Test the disabled path and the enabled path separately. For the enabled path, verify rail ordering, chat history, app selection, embed-session errors, pane close, and completed open_app behavior in a running client. Treat configuration alone as insufficient proof.
