Follow-up to #13866.

Restored SSH snapshots written by older cmux versions must remain associated with their original owner. This preserves the descriptor through configuration copies and prevents restore from silently claiming a legacy session as a new cmux-tui session. Managed SSH snapshots record explicit ownership so native previews continue to restore correctly.

Finishing changes (from the main app-host cleanup)

  • Merged current main, including test(ssh): fix SSHStartupManualReconnectTests after the cmux-tui SSH migration #14209, which already rewrote the SSHStartupManualReconnectTests persistent-attach tests; those files now match main.
  • Ownership stamp: sshSessionOwner = "cmux-tui" is written only when the config actually routes through cmux-tui (SSH terminal transport, daemon bootstrap on, no relay port, no daemon WebSocket endpoint), the same rule as routesThroughSSHTui from fix(ssh): keep legacy relay configurations off the cmux-tui path #14216. Relay and mosh configs keep the legacy path and are not stamped.
  • Retired the tests of behavior this PR ends, legacy persistent PTY reattach and restore: 13 TabManagerSessionSnapshotTests, 3 RemoteResumeBindingTests, 2 SSHRemoteCommandChainingTests, persistentSSHBindingOnlyResumeBypassesLocalCensusAdmission, testPersistentPTYBootstrapReinstallsOldDaemonMissingPTYCapability, and RemotePTYReconnectLifecycleTests.swift (with its pbxproj entries), plus orphaned private helpers.
  • testDaemonBootstrapUpload… now configures a relay port, relay ID/token, and socket path, so it still exercises the legacy daemon bootstrap that stays live for relay configs.

Validation

Focused app-host runs on blacksmith-6vcpu-macos-15 for TabManagerSessionSnapshotTests, WorkspaceRemoteConnectionTests, TerminalStartupRestoreFailureTests, RemoteResumeBindingTests, SSHRemoteCommandChainingTests, SSHStartupManualReconnectTests, SSHTuiMigrationTests, and WorkspaceRemoteBadgeTruthTests: green before the latest main merge (run 36010288899), rerun on the merged head in 36014492204.

Summary by cubic

Restoring a snapshotted SSH session now preserves its original owner so legacy cmux sessions are never silently claimed as a new cmux-tui session. Legacy persistent snapshots restore as a blocked descriptor instead of reattaching through the relay or spawning a replacement shell.

Bug Fixes

  • Snapshots record an explicit sshSessionOwner; managed SSH writes "cmux-tui", legacy snapshots leave it unset.
  • The TUI coordinator rejects restored snapshots not owned by "cmux-tui" instead of claiming them.
  • WorkspaceRemoteConfiguration carries the restored snapshot through scopedToOwnerWorkspace, withDaemonWebSocketEndpoint, resolved-ControlPath, and lease-generation copies.
  • Removed tests that pinned the retired persistent-SSH reattach and replacement-shell behavior.

Written for commit a122d8f. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Restoring persistent SSH workspaces now preserves their existing session information rather than starting a replacement workload.
    • SSH sessions owned by other applications are no longer treated as managed app sessions or reconnected as such.
  • Improvements

    • Managed SSH session details are retained when workspace settings are updated, supporting consistent restoration.
    • Restored SSH sessions that cannot be managed by the app are preserved for recovery without resuming a daemon or starting a replacement workload.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

SSH snapshots now carry an owner marker. Restore configurations retain existing descriptors for persistent SSH sessions, and TUI restoration checks the owner before accepting a session. Tests cover legacy snapshots and managed-session serialization.

Changes

SSH session ownership and restore

Layer / File(s) Summary
Record SSH session ownership
Packages/macOS/CmuxCore/Sources/CmuxCore/Remote/SessionRemoteWorkspaceSnapshot.swift, Packages/macOS/CmuxCore/Sources/CmuxCore/Remote/WorkspaceRemoteConfiguration.swift, cmuxTests/SSHTuiMigrationTests.swift
Snapshots gain an optional SSH owner. Managed SSH snapshots serialize cmux-tui as the owner.
Preserve restored SSH descriptors
Packages/macOS/CmuxCore/Sources/CmuxCore/Remote/WorkspaceRemoteConfiguration.swift, Sources/SessionRemoteWorkspaceSnapshot+Restore.swift
Restore configurations retain the original snapshot across copy helpers. Persistent SSH restoration stores that descriptor, and snapshot creation returns it when present.
Check ownership during TUI restoration
Sources/RemoteTui/SessionRemoteWorkspaceSnapshot+TuiSSH.swift, Sources/RemoteTui/SSHTuiWorkspaceCoordinator.swift, cmuxTests/SSHTuiMigrationTests.swift
TUI restoration requires the cmux-tui owner. The coordinator rejects restored sessions with another owner. Tests cover legacy snapshots and descriptor preservation.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 81473

Legacy SSH sessions that are saved after this change can be labelled as cmux-tui sessions. On the next restore they may be replaced by a new TUI workspace instead of being preserved. Ownership should be recorded only where TUI sessions are created before this merges.

Since #13866 `cmux ssh` hands every TTY session to cmux-tui through
workspace.ssh.open, so the CLI never generates the persistent PTY startup
wrapper these four SSHStartupManualReconnectTests drove through it. They
failed on every main run with "Unexpected method workspace.ssh.open". #14204
removed the matching CLINotifyProcessIntegrationRegressionTests cases. The
supervisor-level tests that call persistentAttachSupervisorCommand directly
stay.

derive ownership from the session’s authoritative owner, not `.ssh` transport or
`skipDaemonBootstrap`; leave ownership unset for legacy sessions and serialize
`cmux-tui` only for TUI-owned sessions. Add a save-and-restore test covering the
persistent legacy configuration and verify restore preserves its existing
session.

#13866 retired the persistent cmuxd-remote PTY wrapper for SSH, and this PR
restores a legacy persistent snapshot as a blocked descriptor instead of
reattaching it or starting a replacement shell. These tests pinned the old
behavior: reattach through the relay, rewrite relay context IDs, fall back
to a plain `ssh -tt` when the snapshot was incomplete, and bootstrap the
persistent daemon. They failed on every main run since #13866.

- Remove 13 TabManagerSessionSnapshotTests, 3 RemoteResumeBindingTests, 2
  SSHRemoteCommandChainingTests, the binding-only persistent resume case,
  RemotePTYReconnectLifecycleTests and the persistent PTY daemon capability
  reinstall test, plus the private helpers only they used.
- The daemon upload test now carries the relay the CLI's no-TTY path
  sends, which keeps it on the cmuxd-remote bootstrap that is still live.
- A snapshot claims cmux-tui ownership only under routesThroughSSHTui's
  rule, so a relay configuration's snapshot stays legacy.

Review nits: withResolvedSSHControlPath now keeps restoredSSHSession like
the other copy helpers, the retired RemotePTYReconnectLifecycleTests
timing entry is gone, and a stray blank line is removed.

Resolve test conflicts against current main:
- AgentSessionAutoResumeSwiftTests: take main. Main's snapshotOfRunningAgent
  helper and explicit awaiting -> commandRunning steps already cover what
  snapshotWithPersistedAgentRunning/advanceAutoResumeCommand did here; keeping
  both would double-advance the resume state.
- CLILocalTmuxReviewRegressionTests: take main, which kept the direct
  LocalTmuxCommandBuilder tests and updated them for the if-shell attach
  wrapper. Drop CLILocalTmuxProductionBoundaryTests, whose methods would
  collide with those names and whose attach assertion predates the wrapper.
- RemoteResumeBindingTests / RemoteResumeBindingLifecycleTests: main (manaflow-ai#14119)
  now restores legacy persistent SSH snapshots as blocked descriptors and
  retired the binding-only persistent restore case, so drop
  persistentBindingOnlyRestoreTracksStartupCommandUntilPromptReturns and its
  socket helpers. Keep the ended-session test; remoteConfiguration stays
  internal for it.
