AW-11 — Agent computers · Task breakdown

Ordered, executable tasks derived from plan.md. Each carries explicit file paths and a definition of done. Every task ships with its tests (Constitution VI). Work top to bottom; tasks marked (parallel) may run alongside the task immediately above them.

Feature ID: aw-11-agent-computers Spec: ./spec.md · Plan: ./plan.md Status: Draft Last updated: 2026-09-06

How to use​

  • All paths are repo-relative to the monorepo root.
  • Run everything with pnpm from the root unless a task says otherwise.
  • Migrations are authored from apps/api/; nothing is run by hand on deploy — the API self-applies pending migrations on boot.
  • Test runners differ per package: packages/agent and apps/api use Jest; apps/node, packages/contracts, packages/plugins/* and apps/web unit use Vitest; apps/web e2e uses Playwright.
  • Add new tasks at the bottom; never renumber.
  • Commit style: feat(computer): …, feat(fleet): …, test(computer): …, chore(i18n): ….

PHASE 1 — Watch

P1.A — Contracts​

  • T1. Extract the secret scanner into the zero-dependency contracts package. - Create packages/contracts/src/secret/secret-patterns.ts holding, moved verbatim from packages/agent/src/utils/secret-scan.ts: the pattern table, SecretMatch, scanForSecrets, containsSecret, redactSecrets. Keep every length floor and every comment explaining why a pattern is conservative — they are the reason it has a low false positive rate. - Create packages/contracts/src/secret/index.ts and export it from packages/contracts/src/index.ts. - Rewrite packages/agent/src/utils/secret-scan.ts to export { ... } from '@ever-works/contracts' for the four moved symbols and keep only assertNoSecrets (the one function that imports BadRequestException). No caller changes — the agent package's export surface is identical (Constitution X). - Test: create packages/contracts/src/secret/__tests__/secret-patterns.spec.ts (Vitest) porting the existing agent-package cases; keep the agent-package spec passing untouched. - Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/contracts test and cd packages/agent && pnpm test -- secret-scan are both green, and grep -rn "scanForSecrets" packages/agent/src | wc -l is unchanged.

  • T2. Add the computer frame protocol to contracts.

    • Create packages/contracts/src/computer/computer-frame.types.ts. Mirror the invariants documented at the top of packages/contracts/src/terminal/terminal-frame.types.ts (size-capped before parse, null-never-throw, direction-mapped kinds, normalized field-by-field construction) and state them in the same header form.
      • Constants: COMPUTER_MAX_FRAME_BYTES = 512 * 1024, COMPUTER_MAX_BATCH_FRAMES = 8, COMPUTER_MAX_BATCH_BYTES = 512 * 1024, COMPUTER_MAX_ERROR_MESSAGE_LENGTH = 8192, COMPUTER_MAX_AUTH_TOKEN_LENGTH = 4096, COMPUTER_MAX_TEXT_LENGTH = 4096.
      • COMPUTER_QUALITY_PRESETS — frozen record of sharp {width:1280,maxFps:8,keyframeMs:5000,q:70}, smooth {width:960,maxFps:15,keyframeMs:5000,q:55}, steady {width:800,maxFps:2,keyframeMs:2000,q:45}.
      • COMPUTER_CLOSE_REASONS — the closed set from spec §5.2.
      • COMPUTER_CONTROL_RELEASE_REASONS — given-back idle disconnected ceiling handed-over revoked session-ended.
      • Frame interfaces: ComputerScreenFrame (kind:'frame', seq, keyframe, width, height, mime, data base64), ComputerTerminalFrame (kind:'terminal', wrapping a TerminalFrame from the sibling module — do not redefine the terminal protocol), ComputerModeFrame, ComputerStatsFrame, ComputerErrorFrame, ComputerEndFrame, ComputerAuthFrame, ComputerPointerFrame, ComputerKeyFrame, ComputerTextFrame, ComputerScrollFrame, ComputerQualityFrame, ComputerRefreshFrame, ComputerControlFrame.
      • Direction maps: COMPUTER_CLIENT_TO_SERVER_KINDS, COMPUTER_SERVER_TO_CLIENT_KINDS, COMPUTER_NODE_TO_SERVER_KINDS.
    • Create packages/contracts/src/computer/computer-frame.codec.ts — hand-rolled encode/decode/normalize with the same base64 canonicality gate and the same isRecord/isBoundedInt helper style as the terminal codec. Never throws.
    • Create packages/contracts/src/computer/index.ts; export from packages/contracts/src/index.ts.
    • Test: packages/contracts/src/computer/__tests__/computer-frame.codec.spec.ts and .../quality-presets.spec.ts per plan.md §10.1.
    • Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/contracts test is green and the codec has a case proving an inbound frame and an outbound pointer are both rejected by the direction map.

  • T3. Add the session view types to contracts. (parallel)

    • Create packages/contracts/src/computer/computer-session.types.ts: ComputerSessionStatus, ComputerChannel, ComputerQuality, ComputerSessionView, ComputerControlSpan, ComputerNodeOption (with watchable: boolean and unwatchableReason: ComputerUnwatchableReason | null), COMPUTER_UNWATCHABLE_REASONS (offline paused disabled draining no-display no-browser no-terminal not-attended cluster), servableChannels: ComputerChannel[] on ComputerNodeOption, NodeAgentProfileView.
    • Done when: every string union has a readonly array constant beside it and a isX(value: unknown) guard, matching the house pattern in packages/contracts/src/fleet/fleet-jobs.types.ts.

  • T4. Extend the fleet contracts — job kind, audit actions, capability tags.

    • packages/contracts/src/fleet/fleet-jobs.types.ts: add 'computer-session' to FleetJobKind (line ~104) and FLEET_JOB_KINDS (line ~107). FLEET_JOB_DEFAULT_QUEUED_MAX_AGE_SEC (line ~191) is a Readonly<Record<FleetJobKind, number>> and will not compile without a new entry — set it to 40, matching spec FR-8.
    • packages/contracts/src/fleet/fleet-panic.types.ts: add the eight computer.* members to FleetAuditAction (line ~60) and FLEET_AUDIT_ACTIONS (line ~96), in the same order as plan.md §9.1.
    • packages/contracts/src/fleet/fleet-node.types.ts: add screen, input, attended to the known capability tags; add controlPolicy, recordWatchSessions, recordingRetentionDays and an optional controlHolder { userId, since, expiresAt } to FleetNodeView.
    • Test: extend packages/contracts/src/fleet/__tests__/fleet-jobs.spec.ts and .../fleet-panic.spec.ts per plan.md §10.1.
    • Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/contracts test and pnpm --filter @ever-works/contracts type-check are green, and nothing else in the repo fails to compile because of the new record entry.

P1.B — Schema and domain model​

  • T5. Add the ComputerSession entity.

    • Create packages/agent/src/entities/computer-session.entity.ts with the columns in plan.md §3.1. Use PortableDateColumn from ./_types (as packages/agent/src/entities/fleet-node.entity.ts does), raw uuid columns rather than @ManyToOne for agentId / nodeId / runId (FKs are added by the migration, not the decorator — the same rule agent-action-proposal.entity.ts documents), and plain varchar for every string union.
    • Class-level indexes: idx_computer_sessions_user_status(userId,status), idx_computer_sessions_node_status(nodeId,status), idx_computer_sessions_agent(agentId,createdAt), idx_computer_sessions_run(runId).
    • Register the entity wherever FleetNode is registered (packages/agent/src/entities/index.ts and the fleet/agent TypeORM feature arrays).
    • Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/agent build is clean and every column carries a doc comment naming what writes it.

  • T6. Add the NodeAgentProfile entity. (parallel)

    • Create packages/agent/src/entities/node-agent-profile.entity.ts per plan.md §3.1. profileKey is an opaque id the Node maps to a directory — document explicitly that the platform never stores a filesystem path.
    • Unique index (nodeId, agentId); index (userId, agentId).
    • Done when: the package builds and the doc comment states the isolation guarantee.

  • T7. Add the control-lock and policy columns to FleetNode.

    • Modify packages/agent/src/entities/fleet-node.entity.ts: add controlPolicy varchar(24) default 'owner', recordWatchSessions boolean default false, recordingRetentionDays int default 14, controlHolderUserId uuid null, controlHolderSessionId uuid null, controlHeldSince / controlExpiresAt PortableDateColumn({ nullable: true }).
    • Export FleetNodeControlPolicy as a string union with its readonly array beside the existing FleetNodeKind / FleetNodeStatus unions in the same file.
    • Done when: the package builds and the header comment explains that the four controlHolder* columns are a CAS lock, not a cache.

  • T8. Author and hand-review migration A.

    • From apps/api/: pnpm typeorm migration:generate -d typeorm.config.ts src/migrations/CreateComputerSessions
    • Land it as apps/api/src/migrations/1791110000000-CreateComputerSessions.ts (AW-11 slot 00, README §5 rule 10), following apps/api/src/migrations/1789000000000-AddFleetCredentialRotation.ts for shape.
    • Hand-check: two CREATE TABLE, seven ADD COLUMN on fleet_nodes, six CREATE INDEX, the FKs on agentId / nodeId / runId / userId. No DROP, no ALTER … TYPE, no NOT NULL without a default. down drops only what up added, in reverse.
    • Done when: it applies on a fresh database and again on a database with data, and a re-run of migration:generate afterwards produces an empty diff.

P1.C — The session domain service​

  • T9. Create the computer domain module skeleton.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/ with index.ts, computer.module.ts, computer-session.repository.ts, node-agent-profile.repository.ts.
    • Export the sub-path @ever-works/agent/computer from the package's exports map, matching how @ever-works/agent/agents is exported.
    • Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/agent build emits the new sub-path's declarations.

  • T10. Write the pure session-policy functions.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/computer-session.policy.ts exporting, with no TypeORM / NestJS imports:
      • resolveWatchability(node, opts): { watchable: boolean; reason: ComputerUnwatchableReason | null; servableChannels: ComputerChannel[] } — precedence exactly as spec §4.10: cluster → disabled → paused → draining → offline → not-attended → per channel (no-browser → no-display remove only screen; no-terminal removes only terminal) → watchable when at least one channel remains (spec FR-4a, FR-70).
      • requiredCapabilitiesForChannels(channels) — attended always, screen only for the screen channel, terminal only for the terminal channel (plan §2.5). The single source of the job's requiredCapabilities; nothing else builds that list.
      • resolveQuality(requested, stored): ComputerQuality (default sharp).
      • shouldDegrade(stats, sinceMs) / shouldRecover(stats, sinceMs) — the 3-frame backlog and 1500 ms ack thresholds over a 5 s window, recovery after 30 s.
      • stallState(lastFrameAt, now) → ok | stalled | auto-refresh | dead at the 6 s / 20 s / 45 s boundaries.
      • SESSION_LIMITS — perNode: 2, perOrganization: 5, maxDurationMs: 4 h, noViewerMs: 30 min, lastViewerGraceMs: 15 s, claimTimeoutMs: 40 s, each with a documented clamp.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/computer-session.policy.spec.ts — a truth table over every watchability branch and every threshold at ±1 ms, and every channel combination of requiredCapabilitiesForChannels (a terminal-only result never contains screen).
    • Done when: the file imports nothing but types from @ever-works/contracts.

  • T11. Write ComputerSessionService.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/computer-session.service.ts.
      • open(userId, agentId, input) — verify Agent ownership, resolve the Node (affinity binding first, via FleetAgentNodeAffinityService), refuse on kill switch (FleetKillSwitchService, already exported by packages/agent/src/fleet/fleet.module.ts), refuse on node state, enforce SESSION_LIMITS, insert the row requested, then enqueue the fleet job (T13).
      • markLive / markStalled / close(reason) — the state machine from spec §5.2.
      • bindRun(sessionId, runId) — set once, never re-bound.
      • listForNode / getForUser — owner-scoped; a foreign id resolves to null so the controller can 404 identically to unknown.
    • Every refusal is a typed return value or a named error, never a bare throw, following TerminalSessionLauncher's refusal-value posture (packages/agent/src/agents/terminal-session-launcher.service.ts).
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/computer-session.service.spec.ts per plan.md §10.2.
    • Done when: every close reason in COMPUTER_CLOSE_REASONS has a test that produces it.

  • T12. Write NodeAgentProfileService.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/node-agent-profile.service.ts: ensure(nodeId, agentId) (lazy create, returns the profileKey), recordSelfReport(...), get(...), reset(userId, nodeId, agentId, confirmAgentName) — refuses with a named value when a fleet_jobs row for that Agent on that Node is leased or running.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/node-agent-profile.service.spec.ts — lazy creation, one profile per pair, reset refusal under a live lease, name-confirmation mismatch refused.
    • Done when: the reset path writes an audit row (T14) and never touches another pair.

  • T13. Enqueue the computer-session fleet job.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/computer-session.dispatcher.ts — a thin wrapper that builds the payload (sessionId, agentId, userId, nodeId, profileKey, channels, quality, internalBaseUrl) and enqueues through the node job-runtime plugin's NodeDispatcherFactory, exactly as apps/api/src/fleet/fleet-agent-task.dispatcher.ts does for agent-task — not by calling FleetJobService directly, so idempotency, capability tags and lease-TTL mapping follow the same JobEnqueueOptions semantics.
    • requiredCapabilities: requiredCapabilitiesForChannels(session.channels) (T10) — derived from the requested channels, never a fixed list: a screen session requires ['attended','screen'], a terminal-only session ['attended','terminal'], both channels all three. The lease matcher requires every listed tag, so a fixed screen would lock display-less Nodes out of terminal-only sessions (plan §2.5). Lease TTL 120 s.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/computer-session.dispatcher.spec.ts — payload shape, required capabilities per channel combination (terminal-only has no screen), targetNodeId always set (a session must never be claimed by a different machine).
    • Done when: a session job can only ever be leased by the node it named.

  • T14. Extend the fleet audit writer with the eight computer actions.

    • Modify packages/agent/src/fleet/fleet-audit.service.ts only where a new helper is genuinely needed; the eight actions are new values, not a new writer.
    • Naming rule (this bites): REDACTED_KEY_RE in that file drops any value whose key contains secret|token|credential|password|passphrase|hash|apikey|api_key. Name the audit fields for what they mean — profileRef, not profileKeyHash.
    • Test: extend packages/agent/src/fleet/__tests__/fleet-audit.service.spec.ts — each new action writes a row; a details blob carrying a frame, a typed value or a selector is rejected by the test's own assertion set.
    • Done when: all eight actions round-trip and none carries a value that could be a secret.

P1.D — API​

  • T15. Create the computer API module.

    • Create apps/api/src/computer/computer.module.ts, import it in apps/api/src/api.module.ts beside TerminalModule (imported at line 61, mounted at line 217), with a comment in the same house style as its neighbours saying what it is.
    • Apply FleetEnabledGuard from apps/api/src/fleet/guards/ at the controller level so the whole surface disappears with FLEET_ENABLED=false, matching FleetController.
    • Done when: pnpm --filter ever-works-api build is clean and the API boots with the module mounted.

  • T16. Write ComputerController (owner-facing).

    • Create apps/api/src/computer/computer.controller.ts — @Controller('api/agents/:id/computer'), every route in plan.md §4.1.
    • Authorization: copy the authorizeRun shape from apps/api/src/terminal/terminal-attach.controller.ts — AgentsService.getOne then a user-scoped Node lookup; a cross-user Agent or Node 404s identically to an unknown one.
    • Throttles: @Throttle at 10/min on session open, 20/min on control, 30/min on refresh.
    • DTOs under apps/api/src/computer/dto/ with class-validator decorators; response DTOs use @Exclude()/@Expose() so no entity leaks.
    • Test: apps/api/src/computer/computer.controller.spec.ts per plan.md §10.3.
    • Done when: every refusal in spec §4 has a controller-spec case asserting its status code and that its message names the reason.

  • T17. Write ComputerInternalController (node-facing).

    • Create apps/api/src/computer/computer-internal.controller.ts — @Controller('api/internal/computer'), @Public(), guarded by the existing FleetNodeAuthGuard (apps/api/src/fleet/guards/fleet-node-auth.guard.ts) so disabled and enrolling nodes are refused at the edge with the same undifferentiated 401.
    • Routes per plan.md §4.3. Enforce the batch caps before decoding.
    • The steps route re-runs redactSecrets on every string server-side even though the Node already scanned — belt and braces, and the only line of defence against a modified Node.
    • Test: apps/api/src/computer/computer-internal.controller.spec.ts per §10.3.
    • Done when: a node authenticated for node A cannot publish into a session belonging to node B, and the refusal is the same 401 as an unknown credential.

  • T18. Write the relay registry.

    • Create apps/api/src/computer/computer-relay.registry.ts, modelled on apps/api/src/terminal/terminal-relay.registry.ts: per-session registry, one retained keyframe (not a rolling scrollback), retained pre-attach error banners, a pinned end frame replayed last, seq dedupe, role-checked inbound fan-out, and the same reclaim rule (no clients AND ended AND at least one attach saw the keyframe).
    • Test: apps/api/src/computer/computer-relay.registry.spec.ts per §10.3.
    • Done when: a re-attaching viewer always gets a picture or an explicit banner, never a blank stage.

  • T19. Write the attach service and the WebSocket gateway.

    • Create apps/api/src/computer/computer-attach.service.ts — short-lived signed tokens with a role (viewer | controller | node); a request may downgrade itself, never upgrade (copy the rule and its comment from apps/api/src/terminal/terminal-attach.service.ts).
    • Create apps/api/src/computer/computer-ws.service.ts — raw ws on the API HTTP server's upgrade event at /ws/computer/:sessionId. Refuse any query string on the upgrade (the token rides the first frame, never the URL). Close 4001 after 5 s unauthenticated; 30 s ping, two missed pongs reaps. No socket.io.
    • Test: apps/api/src/computer/computer-ws.service.spec.ts per §10.3.
    • Done when: a pointer frame from a viewer socket is answered with an error frame and never forwarded to the node leg.

  • T20. Extend the fleet heartbeat response.

    • Modify apps/api/src/fleet/fleet.controller.ts (and the service behind it) so the heartbeat response carries an optional pendingComputerSessions: string[]. Older nodes ignore it.
    • Test: extend apps/api/src/fleet/fleet.controller.spec.ts — the field is present when a session is pending for that node and absent otherwise; the response shape is otherwise byte-identical.
    • Done when: apps/web/e2e/flow-fleet-enrollment-contract.spec.ts still passes unchanged.

P1.E — Node​

  • T21. Add the --attend verb and the attended fast poll.

    • Modify apps/node/src/cli/program.ts: add --attend to start, documented as "allow live viewing of this machine from the dashboard", independent of --work.
    • Modify apps/node/src/core/worker-loop.ts: when attended, run a dedicated interactive lease poll at 2000 ms (clamp 500–10000) with kinds:['computer-session'] and batch 1, backing off to 15000 ms after 10 consecutive empty polls with no session in the previous 10 minutes and returning to fast on any heartbeat that carries pendingComputerSessions.
    • Modify apps/node/src/core/heartbeat.ts to surface that hint to the loop.
    • Test: extend apps/node/src/core/worker-loop.spec.ts and apps/node/src/core/heartbeat.spec.ts per plan.md §10.4.
    • Done when: a node started without --attend never polls the interactive lane, and one started without --work still does.

  • T22. Advertise the new capability tags.

    • Modify apps/node/src/core/capabilities.ts: add screen (only when apps/node/src/core/browser-probe.ts resolves a binary — the same probe the capture will launch, per that file's own rule), input (screen + a display or a headed browser), and attended (only under --attend).
    • Test: extend apps/node/src/core/capabilities.spec.ts — screen is never advertised on a machine where the probe finds nothing.
    • Done when: no tag is advertised that has no executor behind it.

  • T23. Write the per-Agent profile manager.

    • Create apps/node/src/core/screen/agent-profile.ts: resolves a directory per (nodeId, agentId) under the node's data root, creates it lazily, returns the opaque profileKey, reports signedInSiteCount and diskBytes, and implements reset as a delete-and-recreate of exactly one directory. Owner-only ACL on Windows via the existing icacls helper in apps/node/src/node-io.ts.
    • All IO injected, as every other module in apps/node/src/core/ is.
    • Test: apps/node/src/core/screen/agent-profile.spec.ts per §10.4.
    • Done when: resetting one Agent's profile provably leaves a sibling's untouched.

  • T24. Write the capture pump.

    • Create apps/node/src/core/screen/capture-pump.ts: launches (or attaches to) the Agent's own browser with its profile directory, starts a CDP screencast, encodes frames per the resolved quality preset, batches them at ≤ 8 frames / 512 KiB, publishes outbound to POST /api/internal/computer/:sessionId/frames, and honours refresh (force keyframe), setQuality, and stop.
    • Degrade/recover logic reads the thresholds from COMPUTER_QUALITY_PRESETS and the policy in packages/agent/src/computer/computer-session.policy.ts's exported constants — do not re-declare the numbers here.
    • Test: apps/node/src/core/screen/capture-pump.spec.ts per §10.4.
    • Done when: three consecutive failed keyframes restart the pump without ending the session, and a test proves the batch caps are never exceeded.

  • T25. Write the computer-session executor.

    • Create apps/node/src/core/executors/computer-session.ts: claims the job, ensures the profile, starts the capture pump, opens the node's own inbound WebSocket leg using a worker-token brokered by session id, keeps the lease alive at 1/3 TTL, drains gracefully on stop/pause honouring LEASE_TERMINATION_SAFETY_MS, and completes with a verdict.
    • Register it in apps/node/src/core/runtime.ts beside the browser-check registration (line ~493) and only when the machine advertises screen — the same conditional registration pattern browser-check uses.
    • Export it from apps/node/src/core/index.ts alongside the other executors.
    • Test: apps/node/src/core/executors/computer-session.spec.ts per §10.4.
    • Done when: a drain during a live session ends it cleanly with node-unavailable rather than letting the lease lapse.

P1.F — Web​

  • T26. Add routes, tab and hero action.

    • Add DASHBOARD_AGENT_COMPUTER, DASHBOARD_AGENT_COMPUTER_RECORDING and DASHBOARD_AGENT_DEMONSTRATION to apps/web/src/lib/constants.ts, beside DASHBOARD_AGENT_TERMINAL (line 189).
    • Add a computer entry to the tab array in apps/web/src/components/agents/AgentDetailTabs.tsx, immediately after terminal.
    • Add the Watch computer button to the hero action row in apps/web/src/app/[locale]/(dashboard)/agents/[id]/page.tsx, second after Message.
    • Gate both behind isFleetEnabled() from apps/web/src/lib/fleet-flags.ts.
    • Test: apps/web/src/components/agents/AgentDetailTabs.unit.spec.tsx (new) — the tab is present when fleet is on and absent when off.
    • Done when: the tab and the button both reach the new route.

  • T27. Write the shared client policy module.

    • Create apps/web/src/components/computer/computer-session.shared.ts — pure functions only, for the same reason apps/web/src/components/agents/agent-fleet.shared.ts exists: node ordering, watchability + its reason string key, quality resolution and persistence key, control eligibility, stall thresholds, bandwidth formatting.
    • Reuse runnerDotClass from apps/web/src/components/dashboard/runner-status.shared.ts and the node-status strings from the dashboard.runner.nodeState namespace so this surface and the sidebar pill can never disagree about what "Paused" means.
    • Test: apps/web/src/components/computer/computer-session.shared.unit.spec.ts per §10.5.
    • Done when: no layout file contains a threshold or an ordering rule.

  • T28. Write the page and the client shell.

    • Create apps/web/src/app/[locale]/(dashboard)/agents/[id]/computer/page.tsx — a server component that fetches the Agent, the Node list, the affinity binding and the profile in parallel and hands them to the client as props. Defensive .catch() per read so a stale environment cannot 500 the page, following the pattern in the Agent dashboard page.
    • Create apps/web/src/components/computer/AgentComputerClient.tsx.
    • Done when: the page renders every empty/offline/error state from spec §6 without opening a session.

  • T29. Write the stage, strip, overlay and controls. (parallel)

    • Create, under apps/web/src/components/computer/: ComputerStage.tsx, ComputerIdentityStrip.tsx, ComputerStatusLine.tsx, ComputerBriefOverlay.tsx, ComputerWatermark.tsx, ComputerControls.tsx, ComputerNodePicker.tsx, ComputerProfilePanel.tsx, use-computer-attach.ts.
    • ComputerStage renders to <canvas> via createImageBitmap + drawImage, is a labelled focusable region, and announces its mode through a polite live region.
    • use-computer-attach.ts mirrors apps/web/src/components/terminal/use-terminal-attach.ts: token from the BFF, first-frame auth, reconnect with backoff, never a token in a URL.
    • Test: the unit specs listed in plan.md §10.5 for the picker and the status line.
    • Done when: keyboard-only operation reaches every control and ? opens the shortcut sheet.

  • T30. Add the BFF routes.

    • Create apps/web/src/app/api/agents/[id]/computer/sessions/route.ts, .../sessions/[sessionId]/attach-token/route.ts, .../sessions/[sessionId]/control/route.ts, .../sessions/[sessionId]/refresh/route.ts, mirroring the existing apps/web/src/app/api/agents/[id]/runs/[runId]/terminal/{attach-token,start,transcript}/route.ts so the attach token is minted server-side and never round-trips through client code.
    • Done when: no client component holds an API base URL or an attach token before the socket opens.

P1.G — i18n, background work, tests​

  • T31. Add the i18n namespace.

    • Add the whole dashboard.computer block from plan.md §8 to apps/web/messages/en.json, plus dashboard.agentsPage.tabs.computer.
    • Leaf key names are camelCase and must never contain a literal . — next-intl rejects those at runtime and the hydration spec turns one into a multi-shard e2e failure.
    • Only en.json is authored; the other 20 locale files fall back to English.
    • Done when: grep -c '"[a-zA-Z]*\.[a-zA-Z]*":' apps/web/messages/en.json is unchanged from before this task, and no component in apps/web/src/components/computer/ contains a user-visible literal string.

  • T32. Add the session reaper task.

    • Create packages/tasks/src/tasks/trigger/computer-session-reaper.task.ts — cron 2/2 * * * * (off the minute boundary, like packages/tasks/src/tasks/trigger/fleet-job-lease-sweeper.task.ts's 3/5). Ends abandoned (40 s unclaimed), stalled (45 s), ceiling-exceeded and viewerless sessions; releases expired control locks.
    • Register it wherever fleet-job-lease-sweeper is registered. That task's header warns it must be run with TriggerInternalModule or it fails silently on every fire — check the same for this one.
    • Test: packages/tasks/src/__tests__/computer-session-reaper.task.spec.ts — each sweep branch, and idempotence when two ticks overlap.
    • Done when: killing the API mid-session still leaves the session ended within 4 minutes.

  • T33. Write the P1 end-to-end spec.

    • Create apps/web/e2e/flow-agent-computer-watch.spec.ts and apps/web/e2e/flow-agent-computer-contract.spec.ts, named to match the existing apps/web/e2e/flow-fleet-*.spec.ts and flow-terminal-attach-contract.spec.ts.
    • Cover: the entry button, the surface, the identity strip, the status sentence, the watermark, the node picker with each reason, and the empty / offline / not-attended states.
    • Prefer role-and-name locators; avoid *ByRole chains that are known to be load-sensitive in this suite.
    • Done when: both specs are green locally and in CI on a cold database.

  • T34. Update the docs.

    • Add a short section to docs/specs/features/agent-workspace/TRACKER.md marking AW-11 P1 spec'd and implemented.
    • Done when: the tracker row exists and links to this folder.

PHASE 2 — Take over and teach

P2.A — Control​

  • T35. Write the control arbiter. - Create packages/agent/src/computer/control-arbiter.service.ts implementing the CAS lock in plan.md §2.4 as a single owner-scoped UPDATE … WHERE (holder IS NULL OR expires < now()), plus release (scoped by controlHolderSessionId so a stale releaser can never evict a newer holder), requestControl, answerRequest, extendOnce, and the idle / ceiling / disconnect sweeps. - Create packages/agent/src/computer/control-policy.ts — a pure canControl(policy, viewerRole) truth table. - Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/control-arbiter.spec.ts and .../control-policy.spec.ts per plan.md §10.2. - Done when: two concurrent take-overs produce exactly one winner and the loser reads the real holder.

  • T36. Wire control into the controller, relay and WS.

    • Add the four control routes from plan.md §4.1 to apps/api/src/computer/computer.controller.ts.
    • Teach apps/api/src/computer/computer-relay.registry.ts to accept pointer / key / text / scroll frames only from the socket holding control, and to answer any other inbound input with an error frame.
    • Re-check controlExpiresAt and lastInputAt on every inbound input frame and every 30 s ping so the countdown a user sees is second-accurate; the T32 cron is only the floor.
    • Test: extend apps/api/src/computer/computer.controller.spec.ts and computer-relay.registry.spec.ts.
    • Done when: a viewer socket can never inject input, verified by a test.

  • T37. Write the input injector on the Node.

    • Create apps/node/src/core/screen/input-injector.ts — dispatches pointer, key, wheel and text events into the captured browser context. Refuses clipboard payloads, file drops and anything not in the allowed frame set, and refuses everything while control is not held.
    • Suspend the Agent's own synthetic input to that surface while control is held, and tell the Agent it is paused rather than letting its actions fail silently.
    • Test: apps/node/src/core/screen/input-injector.spec.ts per §10.4.
    • Done when: a fuzz case of unexpected frame kinds injects nothing and throws nothing.

  • T38. Build the control UI.

    • Add to apps/web/src/components/computer/: the amber control state on ComputerStage, the ✋ YOU badge on ComputerIdentityStrip, the take-over / give-back controls, the countdown and Keep control affordance, and ComputerControlRequestDialog.tsx (both sides, with the 60 s auto-decline).
    • Keyboard: T takes over; Escape Escape gives back and is the only key intercepted while in control.
    • Test: apps/web/src/components/computer/ComputerControlRequestDialog.unit.spec.tsx.
    • Done when: the mode is legible from the status line alone, with colour disabled.

P2.B — Teach​

  • T39. Add the demonstration entities.

    • Create packages/agent/src/entities/agent-demonstration.entity.ts and packages/agent/src/entities/agent-demonstration-step.entity.ts per plan.md §3.1, registered like the P1 entities.
    • Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/agent build is clean.

  • T40. Author and hand-review migration B.

    • From apps/api/: pnpm typeorm migration:generate -d typeorm.config.ts src/migrations/CreateAgentDemonstrations
    • Land it as apps/api/src/migrations/1791110100000-CreateAgentDemonstrations.ts (AW-11 slot 01).
    • Hand-check: two CREATE TABLE, four CREATE INDEX, one unique index on (demonstrationId, seq), FKs on agentId / nodeId / sessionId / userId. No drops.
    • Done when: it applies twice cleanly and re-generation produces an empty diff.

  • T41. Write the demonstration recorder on the Node.

    • Create apps/node/src/core/screen/demonstration-recorder.ts, capturing exactly the step fields in spec FR-57 and enforcing every redaction rule in FR-58:
      • password fields, autocomplete in {current-password, new-password, one-time-code}, and any field whose accessible name / label / placeholder / name matches the credential pattern → recorded as a named secret requirement with redacted:true, value never read;
      • clipboard contents never captured;
      • query values stripped from recorded paths;
      • typed values truncated at 200 characters;
      • every remaining string run through redactSecrets from @ever-works/contracts (T1) before it leaves the machine.
    • Caps: 200 steps, 15 minutes, 60 screenshots at ≤ 200 KB each.
    • Test: apps/node/src/core/screen/demonstration-recorder.spec.ts — one case per redaction rule, plus a case proving a scanner-tripping value never appears in the outbound payload.
    • Done when: no test can construct an input that gets a credential off the machine.

  • T42. Write DemonstrationService.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/demonstration.service.ts — start (requires control), appendSteps (server-side re-scan, cap enforcement), finish, cancel, removeStep, redraft, fromRun, and the 30-day expiry.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/demonstration.service.spec.ts per §10.2.
    • Done when: every lifecycle transition in spec §5.3 has a test.

  • T43. Write the synthesis dispatcher and task.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/demonstration-synthesis.dispatcher.ts declaring DEMONSTRATION_SYNTHESIS_DISPATCHER, modelled exactly on packages/agent/src/agents/terminal-session-dispatcher.ts: a const string token, a payload interface, an enqueue returning { jobRunId }, and @Optional() at the injection site so an install with no job runtime reports a no-op instead of crashing.
    • Bind it in apps/api/src/agents/agents.module.ts beside TERMINAL_SESSION_DISPATCHER (line 293) with the same @Global() token posture.
    • packages/agent/src/tasks/_tasks-symbols.ts pins the runtime-symbol set of the @ever-works/agent/tasks barrel and its spec fails CI when a new symbol appears there. This token is exported from @ever-works/agent/computer, not /tasks, so no entry is needed — but if it is ever re-exported through /tasks, add it alphabetically or CI goes red one merge late.
    • Create packages/tasks/src/tasks/trigger/demonstration-synthesis.task.ts — loads the demonstration and its steps, builds the prompt, calls the Agent's model through the AI facade, writes draft, creates the approval and the conversation message. 3 attempts with 30 s / 2 min / 10 min backoff; on exhaustion set synthesis-failed and post the plain failure message.
    • Test: packages/tasks/src/__tests__/demonstration-synthesis.task.spec.ts — the retry ladder, that a failure never creates a partial Skill, and that no secret value reaches the prompt.
    • Done when: the task is registered and a stubbed dispatcher drives it synchronously in tests.

  • T44. Write the prompt builder as a pure function.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/draft-skill-prompt.ts — turns steps into the prompt and parses the model's reply into the DraftSkillView shape, refusing (rather than guessing) when the reply is malformed.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/draft-skill-prompt.spec.ts — redacted steps become named secret requirements; a malformed reply is refused; the title is clamped at 80 and the description at 200 characters.
    • Done when: the builder has no NestJS or TypeORM import.

  • T45. Add the adopt_skill approval kind and the adoption path.

    • Modify packages/agent/src/entities/agent-action-proposal.entity.ts: add 'adopt_skill' to AgentActionProposalActionType and AGENT_ACTION_PROPOSAL_ACTION_TYPES. No migration is needed — actionType is a varchar(32) with no check constraint (verified in apps/api/src/migrations/*-CreateAgentActionProposals.ts).
    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/draft-skill-adoption.service.ts — on approve, create a Skill at agent owner scope and a SkillBinding to that Agent; on a slug collision, suffix and report the name used; on reject, create nothing and keep the demonstration 30 days.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/draft-skill.spec.ts per §10.2.
    • Done when: an existing approval of any other action type is provably unaffected.

  • T46. Add the demonstration API routes.

    • Create apps/api/src/computer/demonstrations.controller.ts with every route in plan.md §4.2, plus the steps route on the internal controller (T17).
    • Test: apps/api/src/computer/demonstrations.controller.spec.ts per §10.3.
    • Done when: starting without control returns 422 and names the reason.

  • T47. Build the teach UI.

    • Create apps/web/src/components/computer/TeachTaskDialog.tsx, TeachRecordingStrip.tsx, DemonstrationReview.tsx, DraftSkillCard.tsx, and the demonstration review page at apps/web/src/app/[locale]/(dashboard)/agents/[id]/demonstrations/[demoId]/page.tsx.
    • The recording strip is role="status"; the secret-skipped flash is role="alert".
    • DraftSkillCard renders inside the conversation and in the approvals queue — one component, two mounts, so the two can never drift.
    • Test: TeachTaskDialog.unit.spec.tsx and DraftSkillCard.unit.spec.tsx per §10.5.
    • Done when: the guard sentence appears verbatim and Start recording is disabled without control.

  • T48. Extend the i18n namespace for P2.

    • Add the control, teach, draft and review sub-blocks from plan.md §8 to apps/web/messages/en.json.
    • Done when: no P2 component holds a literal user-visible string and no leaf key contains a dot.

  • T49. Write the P2 end-to-end specs.

    • Create apps/web/e2e/flow-agent-computer-takeover.spec.ts and apps/web/e2e/flow-agent-computer-teach.spec.ts per plan.md §10.7.
    • Done when: the teach spec proves a password typed during a demonstration never appears in the resulting draft.

PHASE 3 — Re-watch and the terminal channel

  • T50. Add the recording segment entity and migration C.

    • Create packages/agent/src/entities/computer-recording-segment.entity.ts per plan.md §3.1 (bytes live in storage; the row holds a storageKey, never bytes).
    • Add computerRecordedAt PortableDateColumn({ nullable: true }) to packages/agent/src/entities/agent-run.entity.ts, documented as "set once when the first recording segment for a session bound to this run is written; a cheap flag so the receipt needs no join".
    • From apps/api/: pnpm typeorm migration:generate -d typeorm.config.ts src/migrations/CreateComputerRecordings
    • Land it as apps/api/src/migrations/1791110200000-CreateComputerRecordings.ts (AW-11 slot 02).
    • Hand-check: one CREATE TABLE, two CREATE INDEX, one ADD COLUMN on agent_runs, no drops.
    • Done when: it applies twice cleanly.

  • T51. Write the recording service.

    • Create packages/agent/src/computer/recording.service.ts — samples at ≤ 1 fps, writes bytes through the storage backend (getActiveStorageBackend in apps/api/src/uploads/storage-backend.factory.ts, reached the way apps/api/src/uploads/uploads.service.ts does with getBackend()), enforces 200 MB / 4 h, stamps expiresAt from the Node's clamped recordingRetentionDays, and degrades without ending the session when storage is unreachable, stamping recordingSkippedReason.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/computer/__tests__/recording.service.spec.ts per §10.2.
    • Done when: a storage outage never fails a session and always shows up on the receipt.

  • T52. Add the recording GC task.

    • Create packages/tasks/src/tasks/trigger/computer-recording-gc.task.ts, mirroring packages/tasks/src/tasks/trigger/terminal-transcript-gc.task.ts. Delete the storage object first, then the row — the reverse order orphans bytes forever.
    • Test: packages/tasks/src/__tests__/computer-recording-gc.task.spec.ts — an object whose delete fails leaves its row for the next sweep rather than being lost.
    • Done when: nothing older than the retention window survives a sweep.

  • T53. Build the player and wire it into the Run receipt.

    • Create apps/web/src/components/computer/ComputerRecordingPlayer.tsx and the route at apps/web/src/app/[locale]/(dashboard)/agents/[id]/computer/recordings/[sessionId]/page.tsx.
    • Add the COMPUTER block from spec §6.24 to the AW-09 receipt component, gated on agent_runs.computerRecordedAt, with the not recorded variants and their reasons.
    • The scrubber is a slider with a 1 s keyboard step and a 10 s page step; control spans are marked on the timeline.
    • Test: extend the AW-09 receipt unit spec — the block renders, and its three not-recorded variants render their reasons.
    • Done when: the receipt renders unchanged for runs with no recording.

  • T54. Add "Make a Skill from this run".

    • Wire POST /api/agents/:id/demonstrations/from-run/:runId (T46) to the receipt button; 409 when the run has no stored steps, rendered as a disabled button with a reason.
    • Done when: the same synthesis path runs with no new demonstration.

  • T55. Add the Node-hosted terminal channel.

    • Extend the computer-session job payload with channels including terminal; in apps/node/src/core/executors/computer-session.ts spawn a local PTY and publish TerminalFrames wrapped in the ComputerTerminalFrame envelope from T2 — reusing the existing protocol in packages/contracts/src/terminal/terminal-frame.types.ts, not a second one.
    • In the web stage, delegate the terminal channel to the existing renderer factory at apps/web/src/components/terminal/create-terminal-renderer.ts.
    • Add the channel switch to ComputerControls.tsx and the C shortcut.
    • Test: extend apps/node/src/core/executors/computer-session.spec.ts; add a web unit case that the read-only badge is present in watching mode.
    • Done when: the existing /agents/[id]/terminal tab and apps/web/e2e/flow-terminal-attach-contract.spec.ts are provably unchanged, and the Node's long-advertised terminal capability finally has an executor behind it.

  • T55a. Prove a display-less Node leases a terminal-only session.

    • Test (agent, Jest): add packages/agent/src/fleet/__tests__/fleet-job.computer-session-capabilities.spec.ts — a lease case that enqueues a computer-session job through the T13 dispatcher with channels: ['terminal'] and leases it as a Node advertising ['terminal','workspace','attended'] (no screen, no input): the job is leased. The same Node leasing a ['screen'] session gets nothing, and a Node advertising ['terminal','workspace'] (not attended) gets neither.
    • Test (node): extend apps/node/src/core/executors/computer-session.spec.ts — with the browser probe resolving nothing and no display, a terminal-only session spawns the PTY, publishes ComputerTerminalFrames and never starts a capture.
    • Test (web unit): extend computer-session.shared.unit.spec.ts — that Node is listed as watchable with servableChannels: ['terminal'] and the screen channel's no display reason beside it.
    • Done when: spec FR-4a and its acceptance criterion hold end to end on a headless machine started with --attend.

  • T56. Add the screen-stream plugin capability.

    • Create packages/plugin/src/contracts/capabilities/screen-stream.interface.ts, mirroring terminal-stream.interface.ts: IScreenStreamPlugin with providerName and capture(input, transport), a ScreenSessionHandle (setQuality, refresh, sendInput, stop, ended), a ScreenTransport, an IScreenStreamFacade, a ScreenNotProvisionedError matched by name across package boundaries, and an isScreenStreamPlugin guard.
    • Export it from packages/plugin/src/contracts/capabilities/index.ts (beside line 33) and add SCREEN_STREAM: 'screen-stream' to packages/plugin/src/contracts/facade-capabilities.ts (beside TERMINAL_STREAM, line 86).
    • Done when: pnpm --filter @ever-works/plugin build is clean.

  • T57. Create the screen-cdp plugin.

    • Create packages/plugins/screen-cdp/ — ESM, tsup, Vitest, everworks.plugin block with capabilities: ['screen-stream'] and playwright-core as an optionalDependency, exactly as packages/plugins/browser-automation/package.json does.
    • Implement capture over CDP screencast and input over Input.dispatch*Event.
    • Test: packages/plugins/screen-cdp/src/__tests__/screen-cdp.plugin.spec.ts per §10.6.
    • Add the plugin and the new capability to docs/plugin-system/built-in-plugins.md — the only doc that carries plugin counts (Constitution VIII).
    • Done when: the plugin builds, tests pass, and no other doc's plugin count was edited.

  • T58. Add the screen facade and route the cloud path through it.

    • Create packages/agent/src/facades/screen-stream.facade.ts beside browser-automation.facade.ts, resolving a provider from the settings cascade and forwarding the resolved id as a providerOverride the way TerminalSessionDispatchPayload.providerId already does.
    • Test: packages/agent/src/facades/__tests__/screen-stream.facade.spec.ts — resolution against a mock plugin, and a case asserting the string screen-cdp appears nowhere outside the plugin package (grep -rn "screen-cdp" packages/agent apps must return nothing).
    • Done when: Constitution II holds by test, not by convention.

  • T59. Add per-Node control-policy and recording controls to the Fleet drawer.

    • Extend apps/web/src/components/settings/FleetNodeDrawer.tsx with the control policy selector, the watch-recording opt-in and the retention-days field, under the dashboard.settings.fleet.controls namespace.
    • Test: extend the fleet settings unit spec; add a case that the retention field clamps 1–90 client-side and that the server clamps independently.
    • Done when: a policy change takes effect on the next control attempt with no restart.

  • T60. Widen access to Organization members.

    • Extend the authorization in apps/api/src/computer/computer.controller.ts so an Organization member may watch a Node whose controlPolicy is org-admins or org-members, and may control only when the policy allows their role. Revocation closes the session within 30 s via the reaper (T32).
    • Test: extend computer.controller.spec.ts with the full role × policy matrix.
    • Done when: the default (owner) behaves exactly as it did in P1 and P2.

  • T61. Write the P3 end-to-end and accessibility specs.

    • Create apps/web/e2e/flow-agent-computer-a11y.spec.ts — keyboard-only operation of every control plus an axe pass on the surface, the teach dialog and the player.
    • Extend flow-agent-computer-watch.spec.ts with the channel switch and the recording player.
    • Done when: the accessibility sweep is clean and the whole suite is green in CI.

  • T62. Close out the epic.

    • Update docs/specs/features/agent-workspace/TRACKER.md to mark AW-11 implemented across all three phases.
    • Add a short user-facing page under docs/ covering watch, take over and teach, and list it in apps/docs/sidebarsPlatform.ts so it is not an orphan page.
    • Done when: the tracker and the docs sidebar both reflect the shipped feature.
