Supersedes #10886. Its documentation intent is included here, so merge only this PR.

Problem

npx cmux@latest can fail inside npm with ENOTEMPTY: directory not empty, rename when an older cmux tree is already in npm's npx cache. The failure occurs before cmux starts. The old launcher used per-platform optional dependencies, which made every later launcher upgrade reify that tree again.

Design

The cmux launcher has no runtime dependencies. It downloads the matching cmux-tui-<platform> tarball from the configured npm registry, verifies its SHA-512 dist.integrity, extracts the native binary, and stores it in a versioned launcher cache outside npm's cache.

cmux update and cmux update --check update the platform binary in that launcher cache. They do not write npm's cache after the launcher has started. Invoking them through npx can still cause npm to resolve or touch its _npx cache before cmux starts. Use npx cmux update for routine platform-binary updates. Use npx cmux@latest only to update the npm launcher itself.

Writable cache hits fetch fresh authenticated metadata and verify the publisher's binary digest. When that digest is absent, the launcher verifies a fresh tarball. A fully read-only administrator-provisioned cache can run offline after its binary and manifest have been verified.

Packaging

  • The launcher package declares no dependencies, optionalDependencies, or peerDependencies.
  • Platform packages continue to publish separately.
  • The launcher requires Node.js 18 or newer.
  • The remote SSH bootstrap uses the same launcher path.

Recovery limit

Users upgrading an old cached cmux@0.11.0 may need one recovery step before the new launcher can start. The getting-started guide derives npm's configured cache, asks for the exact stale _npx entry, checks that it is not active, and moves only that entry to a reversible quarantine. It does not recursively delete the npm cache. On npm versions that provide it, npm cache npx ls, npm cache npx info, and npm cache npx rm are the npm-supported entry management commands.

Verification

  • First run downloads and verifies the matching platform package; later runs use the launcher cache.
  • update --check and update follow the selected release channel and retain rollback data.
  • A matching installed platform package works without network access.
  • Cache integrity, registry authentication scope, symlink handling, read-only caches, Windows paths, lock/lease races, and concurrent updates are covered by the launcher behavior suite.

Testing

  • python3 tests/test_tui_npm_launcher.py
  • python3 tests/test_tui_npm_package_artifact.py
  • python3 tests/test_tui_package_contract.py

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds npm launcher behavior tests, removes TUI optional dependencies from package fixtures, and documents packaged-install updates, binary verification, caching, offline installation, and npm ENOTEMPTY recovery.

Changes

Packaged launcher

Layer / File(s) Summary
Launcher behavior validation
tests/test_tui_npm_launcher.py
Tests registry metadata and tarball downloads, executable binary caching, cache reuse, sanitized errors, and rejection of mismatched binaries.
Package contract updates
tests/test_tui_npm_package_artifact.py, tests/test_tui_package_contract.py
Removes platform-specific TUI packages from the cmux package’s optionalDependencies. The relay package mapping remains.
Packaged install guidance
cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.md, cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.ja.md, cmux-tui/README.md, cmux-tui/README.ja.md
Documents sha512 verification, launcher caching, update commands, offline installation, and npm ENOTEMPTY recovery in English and Japanese.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~15 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 1b511

The launcher changes upgrade and runtime binary resolution, with generally positive user impact, but merge readiness still carries bounded risk: tests may fail or miss cache behavior on other architectures, and Japanese documentation may misstate fallback behavior or drift. Mergeable with explicit owner follow-up.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff. Analyzed 9 functions across 1 files. (2 skipped: 2 unsupported.)

Full details: Cmux Swift Actor Isolation

Explanation

PASS: The PR diff contains no Swift files or Swift code changes. The changed paths are JavaScript, Python, JSON, Markdown, and Python tests, so it does not introduce or worsen any Swift 6 actor-isolation issue covered by the check.

Full details: Cmux Swift Blocking Runtime

Explanation

PASS: The PR diff from merge base e042b2e changes only JavaScript, Python, JSON, and Markdown files. It introduces no Swift changes, so it cannot introduce or expand the Swift blocking or timing primitives covered by this check.

Full details: Cmux Browser Automation Off-Main

Explanation

PASS: The complete PR diff changes only cmux-tui launcher files, documentation, packaging scripts, and launcher tests. It changes no Sources/TerminalController.swift, ControlCommandExecutionPolicy.swift, worker browser router, or policy-test files. The changed lines contain no browser socket commands or WebKit/AppKit wait handling. Therefore this PR does not introduce or worsen a failure covered by the browser automation rule.

Full details: Cmux Expensive Synchronous Load

Explanation

PASS: The complete PR-range diff changes only JavaScript, Python, JSON, Markdown, and test files. It adds no production Swift changes and no synchronous agent-history load on a Swift interactive path. Therefore the custom Swift-specific failure condition is not applicable.

Full details: Cmux Cache Substitution Correctness

Explanation

PASS — The only production-language change is the npm launcher. It adds a versioned binary cache and explicit update state, but it does not modify a persistence, history, undo, or snapshot path for application state. The prior fresh read of the installed binary remains preferred when its version matches, and cmux update reads the registry before it writes launcher state. Therefore the stated cache-substitution failure condition is not introduced.

Full details: Cmux No Hacky Sleeps

Explanation

PASS. The pull request introduces no fixed sleep, delayed dispatch, interval timer, or wall-clock polling in production runtime code. The only production timing primitive is AbortSignal.timeout(REGISTRY_TIMEOUT_MS) around registry metadata and tarball fetches in cmux-tui/dist/npm/cmux/bin/cmux.js; it is a bounded, cancellation-aware network timeout, not race-masking synchronization. The while loop reads a response stream and the other loops parse data or compare versions. The only other timeout found is thread.join(timeout=5) in test-only server cleanup, which the rule allows.

Full details: Cmux Algorithmic Complexity

Explanation

PASS: The PR introduces no complexity failure covered by the rule. The production launcher scans the tar stream once, performs one linear write pass, and uses bounded 512-byte header checks. Its only sort/filter is in pruneCache over cached version directories on the explicit update path; this is not a workspace, UI, socket, search, process, or user-record batch path, and the cache retains only the requested version plus the latest two managed versions. The other changed collection operations use fixed platform/argument lists. The remaining changes are documentation, packaging validation, or tests.

Full details: Cmux Swift Concurrency

Explanation

PASS: The full diff from main to the PR tip changes only JavaScript, Python, Markdown, JSON, and test files. It contains no .swift paths and no cmux-owned Swift code. Therefore, the Swift concurrency failure conditions are not applicable.

Full details: Cmux Swift `@Concurrent`

Explanation

PASS: The custom check applies only to Swift changes. The complete diff from origin/main to HEAD changes 11 non-Swift files and contains no .swift paths, @concurrent annotations, or nonisolated async declarations. Therefore no stated Swift concurrency failure condition is introduced.

Full details: Cmux Swift Package Boundaries

Explanation

PASS: The complete PR diff contains only JavaScript, Markdown, and Python files. It introduces no Swift source, SwiftPM manifest, Xcode project, or workspace changes. The Swift package-boundaries check is therefore not applicable.

Full details: Cmux Swiftpm Lockfiles

Explanation

PASS: The PR diff against origin/main changes 11 files, all under cmux-tui and tests. It changes an npm package.json by removing optionalDependencies, not a SwiftPM Package.swift dependency or an Xcode package reference. The diff contains no Package.swift, Package.resolved, .gitignore, Xcode project/workspace, or workflow changes. Therefore, no SwiftPM lockfile condition in the rule applies.

Full details: Cmux Swift Logging

Explanation

PASS: The pull-request diff from e042b2e to HEAD changes only JavaScript, Python, JSON, Markdown, and test files. It contains no Swift files or Swift code, so it introduces no logging covered by the Swift logging rule.

Full details: Cmux User-Facing Error Privacy

Explanation

The production launcher adds a user-facing error that exposes an environment variable name and its configured value. In cmux-tui/dist/npm/cmux/bin/cmux.js:473, a missing override prints CMUX_TUI_BIN does not exist: ${override}. Blame and the aggregate diff show this branch was introduced by the pull request. The documented exception applies to advanced help text, not an error message. The other sensitive-term occurrences are in docs, tests, or developer comments, which the check allows.

Resolution

Replace the override failure with a generic message such as configured native binary override does not exist and do not include the environment variable name or path. Add a regression test that sets the override to a missing path and asserts that the error contains neither CMUX_TUI_BIN nor the path.

Full details: Cmux Full Internationalization

Explanation

The PR adds user-facing rendered Markdown in cmux-tui/README.md and cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.md, plus only English/Japanese counterparts. These public package docs are linked from the cmux-tui README and are not operational-only docs hidden from users. Their new copy is hardcoded Markdown; it does not use next-intl or another locale-specific runtime source, and the PR changes no web/messages/ files. The repository supports 20 locales in web/i18n/routing.ts (en, ja, zh-CN, zh-TW, ko, de, es, fr, it, da, pl, ru, bs, ar, no, pt-BR, th, tr, km, uk).

Resolution

Move the new user-facing Markdown content to the locale-specific documentation source used by the product, or provide the required locale-specific source for this package-doc surface. Add matching translated entries for every locale in web/i18n/routing.ts and every corresponding web/messages/*.json file. Keep the English and Japanese content aligned with the translated entries.

Full details: Cmux Swiftui State Layout

Explanation

PASS — the pull request does not change Swift or SwiftUI files. The full diff from the implementation commit’s parent through HEAD contains only npm launcher JavaScript, Python/test files, package metadata, and English/Japanese documentation. Therefore the SwiftUI state/layout failure conditions are not applicable.

Full details: Cmux Architecture Rethink

Explanation

PASS: The check applies to Swift architecture changes, but the full PR range changes only JavaScript, JSON, Markdown, and Python files. The verified diff contains no .swift paths, so it cannot introduce the listed Swift architectural patterns.

Full details: Cmux Swift Auxiliary Window Close Shortcuts

Explanation

PASS — The pull-request diff from merge base e042b2e to HEAD changes only JavaScript, JSON, Markdown, and Python files. It adds or changes no Swift code, so the auxiliary-window close-shortcut rule is not applicable.

Full details: Cmux Source Artifacts

Explanation

PASS. The PR changes only intentional product, release, documentation, and test files. cmux-tui/dist/npm/cmux/bin/cmux.js and its manifest are the tracked npm launcher source copied by package_npm.py and published by the release workflows. The changed Python files are packaging and contract scripts. The added tests use temporary paths only at test runtime. No changed path is a cache, log, screenshot, recording, dependency checkout, build-output folder, or scratch directory, and no prohibited artifact directory appears in the diff.

Full details: Cmux No Test Or Debug Seam In Production Source

Explanation

PASS — the complete PR diff from the earliest PR commit’s parent through HEAD changes only Markdown, JavaScript, JSON, Python, and test fixture files. It adds no Swift file and no file under a production Sources/ path, so the specified production test/debug-seam conditions do not apply.

Full details: Cmux No Ambient Global State

Explanation

PASS: The pull request changes only npm launcher JavaScript, Python tests/scripts, and documentation. The full diff from merge base e042b2e to HEAD contains no Swift, Xcode project, or workspace paths. Therefore the production-Swift ambient-global-state check is not applicable.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description provides a detailed problem statement, design, packaging impact, recovery guidance, verification scope, and test commands. It omits the template headings, demo video, review trigger, and checklist, but the required change rationale and testing information are present.

In `@cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.md`:
- Line 148: Update the getting-started guidance around “cmux update” to clarify
that it replaces “npx cmux@latest” only for routine platform binary updates;
explicitly retain “npx cmux@latest” as the path for updating the npm launcher.
- Around line 143-146: Update the getting-started cleanup command to derive the
npm cache location with npm config get cache and remove its _npx subdirectory,
replacing the hardcoded ~/.npm path while preserving the subsequent npx
cmux@latest command.
- Around line 124-128: Update the offline installation example in the
getting-started documentation to pin both cmux and the platform package to the
same explicit version, and document installing from local tarballs or a
pre-populated npm cache so the command performs no registry resolution. Preserve
the platform-package selection guidance.
- Around line 122-123: Qualify the npm-cache isolation statement in
cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.md lines 122-123 to note that npx may resolve cmux
through or fail while touching npm’s _npx cache before runUpdate executes, even
though runUpdate writes only the cmux-tui-launcher cache. Apply the same
clarification to cmux-tui/README.md line 93; both instructions must avoid
claiming that npx cmux update cannot affect or encounter npm’s _npx cache.
- Around line 111-149: Add Japanese counterparts for the new packaged-install,
update, offline-install, and npx troubleshooting guidance, keeping them
synchronized with the English content. Update cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.md

93) with its Japanese paired document, following the repository’s existing

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Qualify the first-run download statement.

The launcher checks CMUX_TUI_BIN, a matching installed platform package, and the launcher cache before downloading. This paragraph says that the first run always downloads from npm. State that the download occurs only when no matching installed package or cached binary is available.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Use an ephemeral port for the failure registry.

Line 162 passes http://127.0.0.1:1 to run_launcher. Port 1 is a fixed non-zero port, so another local service or environment policy can change the response and make this test flaky. Start a local fake registry on port 0 and pass its assigned URL, or reuse the existing registry helper with a deliberate failure status.

As per coding guidelines, tests must use ephemeral ports and local fakes instead of fixed non-zero ports.

cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.md lines 167-171 and
cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.ja.md lines 40-44 to reject only an empty path,
the filesystem root, or the home directory itself; allow paths beneath $HOME,
including the standard $HOME/.npm cache, so removing the _npx subdirectory
proceeds.

📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Do not maintain an isolated locale file under cmux-tui/docs/.

cmux-tui/docs/getting-started.ja.md creates a second source of truth beside the canonical English documentation. Later changes can leave the two files out of sync. Remove this translation unless a documented documentation-localization system now owns cmux-tui/docs/.

Based on learnings, “cmux-tui/docs/” is a single canonical English documentation set with no locale-specific documentation tree, and isolated per-file translations should not be added without a dedicated localization system.
