📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughSession names now use shared validation before socket-path construction. Invalid names produce localized startup errors. Socket-resolution failures propagate through CLI, server, machine-agent, and remote-daemon startup paths. ChangesSession Name Validation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The current tests still treat invalid session names as acceptable, so they do not reliably protect the documented naming contract; some localized errors also omit restrictions and may be misleading in the machine-agent path. Correct the test cases and messages before merging. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui-core/src/server.rs`:
- Around line 471-490: Update session-name validation and the argument/serve
paths around parse_args_result and serve_paused so existing durable sessions
with legacy names remain accessible, including names containing spaces, Unicode,
leading underscores, or exceeding 64 characters. Add a compatible
grandfathering, explicit escape hatch, or rename migration before enforcing
validate_session_name for new names, while preserving safe socket-path handling.
In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/src/machine_agent/mod.rs`:
- Around line 99-107: The session validation in the machine-agent flow is
inconsistent and the invalid-session message is outdated. Align SessionName::new
and validate_session_name around the documented 1–64-byte format, rejecting
leading punctuation and unsupported characters, and reuse a single validator
where practical. Update the relevant machine-agent message to describe the
enforced format while preserving the existing invalid-session error path.
In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/src/remote_cli.rs`:
- Around line 2110-2124: Update ensure_daemon’s validate_session_name call to
map failures to the localized invalid_session message, matching the handling
used by the other call sites, while preserving successful validation and
existing error propagation for unrelated failures.
In `@cmux-tui/crates/cmux-tui/tests/cli.rs`:
- Line 753: Add an end-to-end test in the existing `cli.rs` binary-test suite
using the established `Command::new(bin())` scaffolding and `GlobalArgs` path.
Invoke `cmux-tui` with an invalid `--session`, then assert exit status 2 and the
localized `invalid_session` message.

Align the session-name validators and update the error message. SessionName::new accepts :, leading ., _, or -, and values up to 128 bytes. validate_session_name accepts only [A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]{0,63}. The validators are not equivalent. Update the machine-agent messages to describe the 1–64-byte format, and deduplicate the validation logic if possible.

Describe the complete session-name contract.
The validator also rejects non-ASCII names, leading _ or -, and names longer than 64 characters. The current text implies that those names are valid.
Update all four messages to describe [A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]{0,63} or its localized equivalent.

Make the accepted-session cases match the validation contract.
legacy name, 名前, _legacy, -legacy, and the 200-character value must be rejected. They violate the required character set, first-character rule, or 64-character limit.
Keep these values in the rejection cases. Add valid examples such as legacy-name, a_name, and a 64-character ASCII name.
