Clanker Claude Opus 5.5 is responding on behalf of meetsu

An agent that suggests a setting now puts the switch itself in the chat, knows whether it is already on, and names it the way the user's app does, in the app's language.

experiment card, desktop, app in French

what changed

  • each app reports its language, the experiments it has on and the names it gives settings to every core after hello and on change; the core keeps them per socket in memory and reads the app the user last used (client.preferences, packages/core/src/client-preferences.ts, lib/client-preferences.svelte.ts).
  • boite settings starts with that app and its language, quotes each setting's on-screen name and lists experiments as experiment.<id>; settings request experiment.<id> true draws a card, refused with already true when it is on (contracts/setting-requests.ts, core/src/cli.ts).
  • the note ahead of a prompt says which shows Boite in French when a session starts or the language changes (SentFrom.language, threads/turn-context.ts).
  • a true-or-false card draws its switch; other values keep Apply; an experiment's switch flips the device's own experiment and the app's next report settles the card (SettingRequestCard.svelte).
  • experiment ids move to contracts; the fake client mirrors client.preferences and has a [settings-experiment] marker.

to question

sensitive settings (LAN, guards, retention, worktrees) are now changed in the card too, under the red shield and a "check before changing" line, instead of only opening Settings: the request was no redirect. an experiment card settles only when an app flips that switch since its last report (compared by an app id kept on the device, so a reconnect counts) or when the app it was asked from reports another value; a prompt from another app, a language change or a core setting settles nothing (four cases GPT-6.1 Sol found, fixed in 2c8d1384).

verified

  • bun test test/cli.test.ts test/sent-from.test.ts test/mcp.test.ts test/access.test.ts (core): 56 pass; the experiment case (prompt from another app, core setting, language change, offline flip, flip off from another device) fails on bfa854de.
  • vitest run (ui): 2177 pass, the one failure (RightPanel.remote.test.ts counting every RPC on attach) fixed after and passing alone.
  • bun test tests/e2e/setting-cards.test.ts: French app, agent.settings reads fr and Agents off, the switch turns it on, the card reads applied and the Agents switch appears.
  • bun run check: 0 errors.
  • not verified: the Windows app, a physical phone, a real agent reading boite settings on a deployed core.

Bundle size

Measured with bun scripts/ci/budgets.ts measure after fresh bun run build:ui and bun run build:core on Linux, merged with main 9ea83fda, against that main built the same way:

  • core JavaScript 4,494,804 → 4,501,732 (+6,928, +0.15 %): core/src/client-preferences.ts (the per-app book of reported language and experiments), the experiment checks and settle rules in contracts/src/setting-requests.ts, and the CLI's app line and labels in boite settings.
  • UI files 4,871,593 → 4,875,373 (+3,780, +0.08 %): the switch in the settings card and lib/client-preferences.svelte.ts, which reports the app's preferences.
  • UI entry chunk 492,029 → 488,630 (−3,399).

📝 Walkthrough

Apps now report their language, experiment state, and setting labels to the core. Settings reads and requests use that information. Setting cards display controls for boolean changes, including sensitive settings and device-local experiments. Prompt metadata and notes include the app language.

Changes: App preferences and setting cards

Layer / File(s) Summary
Preference and experiment contracts
packages/contracts/src/setting-requests.ts, packages/contracts/src/access.ts, packages/contracts/src/index.ts
Contracts add app preference validation, language and experiment keys, app-aware settings readings, and experiment request and settlement logic.
Preference reporting and prompt language
packages/ui/src/lib/client-preferences.svelte.ts, packages/ui/src/lib/store/events.ts, packages/core/src/client-preferences.ts, packages/core/src/core.ts, packages/core/src/settings.ts, packages/core/src/threads/*, packages/core/test/sent-from.test.ts, packages/ui/src/components/RightPanel.remote.test.ts
The UI reports preferences and the core tracks the selected app and uses reports to settle experiment cards. Prompt origins and notes include language.
Setting card behavior and UI validation
packages/ui/src/components/SettingRequestCard.svelte, packages/ui/src/lib/setting-requests.ts, packages/ui/src/lib/fake-client/*, packages/ui/src/lib/strings.*.ts, packages/ui/src/components/SettingRequestCard.test.ts, tests/e2e/setting-cards.test.ts
Cards show switches for boolean changes and apply experiments locally. Labels and hints cover experiments, and tests cover card actions and outcomes.
Settings reads, documentation, and integration checks
packages/core/src/cli.ts, packages/core/src/mcp/tools.ts, packages/core/test/cli.test.ts, packages/core/test/mcp.test.ts, docs/cli.md, docs/language.md, tests/e2e/composer-accounts.test.ts, tests/e2e/message-edit-questions.test.ts, tests/e2e/model-switch.test.ts, docs/ci.md, scripts/ci/budgets.json
CLI and MCP descriptions cover app metadata and experiments. Documentation, integration expectations, and recorded CI size limits are updated.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to b3505

A narrow timing window can let a setting card report success even though the setting was switched back. Guarding the switch before merge would remove that inconsistency; the remaining risk is bounded.

- Around line 62-87: In SettingRequestCard, prevent a pending toggle from
applying after its current value has moved away from change.previous: derive a
stale state when the toggle’s current value differs, reject apply while stale,
and disable the switch while stale. Preserve the existing behavior for
non-toggle settings.

#614 split strings.en.ts and strings.fr.ts into one file per part. When git merge origin/main stops on them, run bun scripts/migrate/split-catalogues.ts: it replays this branch's catalogue edits onto main's parts and stages them. A part both sides changed on the same lines keeps conflict markers.
