Change

herdr can move a pane to another tab, a new tab or another workspace (pane.move), and the web had no way to do it. This adds Move pane to… to the tab strip's tab menu and the sidebar's workspace row menu. The item opens the same row menu again under the same button (a popover on a desktop, the bottom sheet on a phone) listing New tab, the workspace's other tabs, every other workspace (the pane lands in a new tab there) and New workspace. A pick posts once to the new POST /api/pane/move.

  • shared/protocol.ts: MovePaneRequest / MovePaneDestination (herdr's PaneMoveDestination with the type the generated union widens to a string spelled out) and PaneMoved (= PaneMoveResult), with the route in the catalogue comment. scripts/generate-protocol-types.ts adds the PaneMoveParams / PaneMoveResult roots and the generated file is regenerated (not hand-edited).
  • server/pane-move.ts + POST /api/pane/move in server/index.ts: the body is checked here (missing_pane_id, invalid_destination, invalid_focus, plus the usual invalid_json / invalid_body) because herdr answers a malformed destination with a bare invalid_request; a tab destination's split defaults to right; focus defaults to false so herdr's own focus stays where it was. herdr's own refusals come back in the error envelope (pane_not_found, tab_not_found, workspace_not_found). The answer is herdr's PaneMoveResult whole: pane (under a new pane_id when the pane changed workspace), previous_pane_id, created_tab / created_workspace, closed_tab_id / closed_workspace_id, changed: false, reason: "same_tab" for a no-op. The old id's transcript cache is forgotten. paneMove in server/herdr/client.ts unwraps { move_result }.
  • server/machine-api.ts: pane/move joins the proxy allowlist, so it works on a remote PC and through the /api/machines/local/ alias.
  • site/demo/transport.ts: the demo answers /api/pane/move with the same bookkeeping its close/create handlers do (tabs, counts, automatic labels, layouts, focus), a new id when the pane crosses workspaces, and a running mock turn resolved to the new id.
  • src/components/MovePaneMenu.tsx (+ .css, tokens only), src/lib/paneMove.ts: the places (paneMoveTargets) and what follows a pane to its new id (carryPaneRecords: the lens, the composer draft, the terminal draft). actions.paneMoved in App.tsx carries them and re-selects the new id only when the moved pane was the selected one on that PC: a move made elsewhere (the TUI, another client) never moves the selection, the old id just leaves the snapshot and the existing fallback picks herdr's focus. Held queues and pending sends stay under the old id (they name a server lease), documented in src/AGENTS.md.
  • i18n ko/ja/zh, CHANGELOG (Unreleased → Added), DESIGN.md (row menu, tab menu, the new menu's head), server/AGENTS.md / src/AGENTS.md rows, scripts/ui-regression.ts menu lists.

Measured on herdr 0.9.3: a move inside a workspace keeps the pane id (the tab changes; an emptied tab closes), a move into another workspace or a new one gives a new id; both are covered by the contract test.

Out of scope on purpose: tab reordering (#480) and the split view (#602); the UI never exposes split / target_pane_id / ratio (the server accepts them for API callers).

Validation

Isolated herdr session herdr-web-ui-qa-J, web server on :7460 with a temp state dir; nothing touched the live session. Evidence under /tmp/parity-qa-J/ (not in the tree).

herdr RPCs used: pane.move (new), plus workspace.create, tab.create, session.snapshot, workspace.close in the tests and the QA fixtures.

Known limits

  • Held messages and pending sends stay under the old pane id after a cross-workspace move (they name a server lease the move does not carry); the lens and the unsent drafts follow.
  • The tab menu's item moves the pane the tab opens (the open pane on the open tab); a tab with several panes moves that one, not the tab.
  • new_workspace is named by herdr (from the pane's folder); there is no name field in the menu.

site/demo/transport.ts:299
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Update the agent’s location when moving its pane.

If a pane has an agent, this loop changes only agent.pane_id. A move to another tab or workspace then leaves agent.tab_id and agent.workspace_id pointing to the source, while the returned pane and next snapshot place it at the destination. Update both agent fields with targetTab before emitting the snapshot.

🟡 Minor · Keep the pending key until all overlapping moves settle. · paneMove.ts:60-69

src/lib/paneMove.ts:60-69
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Keep the pending key until all overlapping moves settle.

Both move menus allow another move for the same pane while the first request is pending. A first rejection or changed: false response then removes the shared pending key in finally. If the second move has already removed the old pane from the roster, App can fall back before the second response arrives. The second response may then fail to select its new pane because the old pane is no longer selected.

Use a reference count for each pending pane key.

Suggested fix
-const pendingMoves = new Set<string>();
+const pendingMoves = new Map<string, number>();

 export function beginPaneMove(machineId: string, paneId: string): void {
-  pendingMoves.add(paneStorageId(machineId, paneId));
+  const key = paneStorageId(machineId, paneId);
+  pendingMoves.set(key, (pendingMoves.get(key) ?? 0) + 1);
   movesChanged();
 }

 export function endPaneMove(machineId: string, paneId: string): void {
-  pendingMoves.delete(paneStorageId(machineId, paneId));
+  const key = paneStorageId(machineId, paneId);
+  const count = pendingMoves.get(key) ?? 0;
+  if (count <= 1) pendingMoves.delete(key);
+  else pendingMoves.set(key, count - 1);
   movesChanged();
 }

 export function paneMovePending(machineId: string, paneId: string | null): boolean {
-  return paneId !== null && pendingMoves.has(paneStorageId(machineId, paneId));
+  return paneId !== null && (pendingMoves.get(paneStorageId(machineId, paneId)) ?? 0) > 0;

- Around line 60-69: Update pending move tracking in beginPaneMove, endPaneMove,
and paneMovePending to use a reference count per pane key. Increment on each
move begin, decrement on each end, and remove the key only when its count
reaches zero so overlapping moves remain pending until all settle.

Comment thread site/demo/transport.ts
A pane moved without focus out of a tab or workspace it had alone left the demo's focused tab and workspace ids on what had just closed. A pane that is still there now takes the focus, outside the destination when there is one. DESIGN.md loses the paragraphs the merge of main left twice and lists Move pane to… in the tab menu.

…oved PC (#804)

## Change

Follow-up to #762. CodeRabbit's last review there left one finding open,
outside the diff, on the `popstate` handler. Using deep links turned up
a second case next to it, after a pane move.

- **Back to a PC removed since.** When a history entry names a PC that
is no longer configured, the handler took the entry's pane id and
selected the missing PC, which left the pane blank. It now stays on the
pane shown and shows the note a link to that PC gets ("That link's PC is
not set up here"). It also writes the shown pane over the entry, so the
address is true again.
- **Back and Forward after a pane move.** A move gives the pane a new id
(#734), and the address writer pushed that as a new history entry. An
entry written before the move named the old id, so Back fell back to the
old workspace's row pane, or to "That agent has closed" when the move
emptied it. `lib/paneMove.ts` now records, for this tab, the ids that
moves give panes. The writer uses that record to write the new id over
the pane's own entry. The `popstate` handler follows an old id to the
pane wherever it went.
- **Forward is kept.** When Back or Forward lands somewhere other than
the place its entry named, the writer replaced nothing and pushed a new
entry, which cut off every entry after it. That place is now written
over the entry.

No new UI strings, and nothing changes for an entry that lands where it
says.

## Validation

- `bun run check fast`: generated types, typecheck, build and unit tests
pass. The unit tests include new `paneMovedTo` tests covering a chain of
moves, another PC, an id kept by the move, and a cycle.
- `bun run check browser`: all scripts pass.
`scripts/deep-link-demo-regression.ts` has two new checks:
- A pane moved into another workspace keeps its history entry. Back and
Back again reach the entry from before the move, which opens the pane
under its new id. Forward and Forward again walk back, and
`history.length` is unchanged throughout.
- Back to an entry for a PC that is not set up stays on the pane, shows
the note, takes `machine` off the address, and keeps the Forward entry.
- With the `App.tsx` change reverted, the move check fails ("the moved
pane's new id is written over its entry").
