# Description of Changes
Changes
- Use 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost for the local backend. The bundled
backend starts on a random port and binds the IPv4 wildcard, but the
frontend health-checked http://localhost:{port}. On macOS (and some
Linux) localhost resolves to IPv6 ::1 first, so the connection is
refused and every backend-dependent tool shows "backend offline" even
though the backend started fine. Switched getBackendUrl() and the
health-check URL to the 127.0.0.1 loopback literal (already in the Tauri
HTTP capability allowlist, and what the OAuth loopback server already
uses). Client-side tools were unaffected, which matches the reports.
- Fail the desktop build when the bundled JRE is older than the app JAR.
The app JAR is compiled for Java 25, but the bundle could ship an older
runtime/jre (jlink:runtime short-circuits on an existing runtime, and
nothing checked its version), producing UnsupportedClassVersionError at
launch so the backend never starts. Added a jlink:verify task that reads
the jlink release file and fails the build if the bundled JRE major is
below REQUIRED_JAVA (25, kept in sync with build.gradle
modernJavaVersion). It runs after the runtime is staged - including the
short-circuit reuse path that lets a stale JRE slip through.
Cross-platform Node script, no new dependencies.

## Summary
Published Docker images (`stirling-pdf:latest`, `:2.13.1`) still shipped
the full `ffmpeg` package even though it was disabled in source back in
#6053.
**Root cause:** `push-docker.yml` passed a hardcoded
`BASE_VERSION=1.0.0` build-arg for the regular image, overriding the
Dockerfile's `ARG BASE_VERSION=1.0.2` default. Base `1.0.0` is the
original base that still does the explicit `ffmpeg` apt install, so the
published image never picked up the removal.
# Description of Changes
Fixes one of the main causes of `any` typing left in tools, the way that
we register tool parameters in the registry. Currently, it just accepts
tool params via `any`, but instead we can explicitly change them to
`Record<string, unknown)`, so on the way back out they can more safely
be cast back to their correct type when known.
One consequence of this is that I had to redesign the way we
special-case the Convert tool, which previously was a different shape
than all the other param types. Now it's just got optional parameters on
it, which isn't quite as type-safe as before, but it does mean all tools
are a consistent shape now, which I think is worth the tradeoff.
• Removed colors from policies to make them look more professional.
• upgraded to enterprise link to contact us.
• Hid inactive policies from users (Kept for admin and team lead).
• Closing policies had wrong arrow, made a standard component for chat,
tools and policies header.
## What
Make the **SaaS** build always use the modern logo, so the classic logo
can no longer appear anywhere in the SaaS app.
This is a minimal, SaaS-only alternative to the full classic-logo
removal PR (~80 files). **OSS (`core`) and proprietary builds are
untouched** — they keep the full modern/classic variant system,
including the admin _Logo Style_ picker.
## How
A single SaaS-layer override shadows the core hook:
- `frontend/editor/src/saas/hooks/useLogoVariant.ts` → returns
`"modern"` unconditionally.
In the SaaS build the `@app/*` alias cascade resolves
`@app/hooks/useLogoVariant` to `src/saas/*` before `src/core/*`, so this
shadows the core implementation (which otherwise resolves the variant
from the stored user preference or the server `logoStyle`).
## Why one file is enough
All logo rendering funnels through `useLogoVariant()`:
- `useLogoAssets()` → favicon, web manifest, apple-touch icon, wordmark,
`logo512`, tooltip logo — consumed by `BrandingAssetManager` (which sets
`<link rel="icon|manifest|apple-touch-icon">`), `Wordmark`, `LogoIcon`,
`Tooltip`.
- `useLogoPath()` → the no-text logo SVGs.
- The login-carousel slides (`buildLoginSlides`) receive the variant
from `AuthLayout`, which calls the hook.
Everything else that references a logo in SaaS already hardcodes
`modern-logo` (`index.html`, the SaaS
`Login`/`Signup`/`AuthCallback`/`OAuthConsent` routes, cloud onboarding,
account/MFA QR logos).
The only hardcoded `classic-logo` reference — the admin _Logo Style_
picker in `AdminGeneralSection` — is **not shipped in SaaS**:
`createSaasConfigNavSections` builds from the core nav sections and
never includes the proprietary admin sections.
`manifest-classic.json` and the classic assets remain in the shared
`public/` folder (served by all builds) but are never referenced in the
SaaS bundle.
## Test plan
- [x] `task frontend:typecheck:saas` — clean
- [x] `eslint` on the new file — clean
# Description of Changes
TS6 introduced backwards-incompatible changes which affected us a little
bit. Other than that, I don't think it significantly changes things for
us, but we will need to deal with these breaking changes to be able to
upgrade to TS7 (the version written in Go, so dramatically faster), so
I'd rather do the work now before TS7 actually releases.
Main things I've done:
- Removed the use of `baseUrl` in the `tsconfig.json` files
- Explicitly provide the `node` types where needed
- Explicitly reference the un-referenced but required Google API types
- Dropped the installation of `madge` which we weren't using and wasn't
directly compatible with TS6
- Updated the `i18next` packages for explicit TS6 compatibility
- Explicitly override `tsconfck` to force TS6 compatibility since we
can't upgrade it. We're only using that for `vite-tsconfig-paths` and it
all still seems to work fine, so I don't think this is an issue. I think
we can theoretically drop `vite-tsconfig-paths` when we upgrade to Vite
8 ([because it supports
`paths`](https://v8.vite.dev/guide/features#paths)), but that's a bigger
job than I want to do in this PR
# Description of Changes
Refactor frontend auth to the shared folder and hook it up to both the
portal and editor so they share the same system. Also adds various tasks
to help run the portal, including `task dev:portal` to spawn the portal
with the backend, and `task dev:portal:proxy` to spawn the editor,
portal and backend, and a reverse proxy (at localhost:3000) to allow you
to use both at once to simulate how this will actually be deployed,
allowing you to check whether the seamless transition between the two
actually works.

/>
This PR changes the modal to be properly wrapped in a form so key
commands work correctly on it.
## Overview
Internationalizes the **developer portal**, which previously had **zero
i18n** — every string was hardcoded across ~118 components. Rather than
stand up a parallel system, this shares the **editor's** existing i18n
setup (same TOML locale format, same Crowdin pipeline), then converts
every portal surface to `react-i18next` and adds a CI guard so coverage
can't regress.
## What's included
### 🔗 Shared i18n core (`@shared/i18n`)
- Extracts the editor's `TomlBackend` (HTTP loader for
`public/locales/{lng}/translation.toml`) and language metadata/helpers
(the 42-language list, RTL set, `LanguageSource` priority, code
normalizers) into `frontend/shared/i18n/`.
- The **editor** now imports and re-exports these from `@shared/i18n` —
its 20+ consumers are unchanged. Its local `tomlBackend.ts` is deleted.
- The **portal** builds its own i18next instance from the shared core,
with **en-US as the source of truth** and the same
`/locales/{lng}/translation.toml` layout.
### 🌍 Full portal coverage
- Every view and component converted to `t()` — all feature areas (home,
pipelines, sources, infrastructure, usage, documents, agent-builder,
editor-admin, policies, users, docs, catalogue, components view) plus
app shell, nav, modals, and the home/domain widgets.
- **1108 keys across ~30 namespaces** in
`portal/public/locales/en-US/translation.toml`, grouped by feature;
shared strings under `[common]`. Plurals use i18next count forms;
dynamic labels (nav, settings sections, status badges) use template keys
against populated tables.
- Data-driven strings (values from `@portal/api/*` mocks, enum/id
values, code samples) are intentionally left untranslated — they're
data, not UI chrome.
### ✅ CI coverage guard
- `portal/scripts/check-i18n.mjs` fails if any static `t("key")` in
portal source is missing from the en-US locale. Wired into
`frontend:check` and `frontend:check:all`, so missed keys break CI. This
mirrors the editor's `missingTranslations` test for the portal, which
has no vitest harness of its own.
## Testing
- `task frontend:check:all` passes locally (typecheck all variants,
lint, format, **portal i18n guard**, builds, tests, storybook).
- Every static `t()` key verified to resolve in the locale (1108 keys /
186 source files); all dynamic key prefixes map to populated tables.
- Runtime sweep of all 12 portal routes shows **no unresolved keys** on
screen; nav labels, plurals, and array-backed copy all render real text.
## Follow-ups (not in this PR)
- **Crowdin** — register `frontend/portal/public/locales/` as a source
so portal strings flow through the same translation pipeline as the
editor (an ops step on the Crowdin side; there's no Crowdin config in
the repo).
- Only `en-US` is populated; other languages will arrive via the
pipeline.
# Description of Changes
Continued effort to remove the remaining uses of the `any` type from our
TS code. The vast majority of these uses that it cleans up was just
catching errors as `any`, which are pretty simple to fix. I couldn't
completely remove the `any` type usage from `core/tools` because there
were cascading issues from a couple of the files in there (most notably
Automate) but still, moving in the right direction.
# Description of Changes
#6727 introduced frontend code which goes against the architecture, so
this PR re-implements it in the architecture properly, along with
another bad Tauri check that I found in the source. I also updated the
`AGENTS.md` file to use Claude's "read this file" syntax to try and
force AI to actually read the file instead of just suggesting that it
does it.
# Description of Changes
## What was changed
- Updated editor translation files across multiple locales.
- Migrated numerous count-based translation keys from legacy
`{{plural}}` handling to ICU-style plural forms using `_one`, `_other`,
and where applicable `_zero` variants.
- Added translations and localization keys for newly introduced features
and UI areas, including:
- Stirling Agents
- Chat interface and quick actions
- Files management and folder organization
- Desktop update workflow
- Folder scanning warnings
- Team and workspace management
- Sharing and upload dialogs
- Comparison status messages
- Relative time formatting
- Additional tool panel and update UI strings
- Added missing translation entries required by recently introduced
frontend functionality.
- Reorganized some translation sections to maintain consistency and key
ordering.
## Why the change was made
- To align locale files with the current frontend feature set.
- To support proper pluralization behavior across languages.
- To prevent missing translation keys and fallback text in newly added
UI components.
- To improve localization consistency and maintainability as the
application grows.

Fix issues with the theme of the app that caused some things to persist
in light mode/dark mode whilst the rest of the app was the opposite
theme.
Removed dead rainbow mode code.
Added system theme option to settings.
## What & why
Policies (automation-backed enforcement) execute and bill through the
cloud backend, so the feature should only be available in the hosted
**SaaS** product — not in self-hosted proprietary or core builds. Today
it's enabled in the proprietary build (and the API is exposed in any
proprietary backend), so this locks it to SaaS on both layers.
## Frontend (build-flavor gate)
`POLICIES_ENABLED` is the single gate `usePoliciesEnabled` uses (rail +
auto-run controller).
- `proprietary` flag → **`false`** (self-hosted web no longer shows
policies)
- new `src/saas/constants/featureFlags.ts` → re-exports proprietary
flags, overrides `POLICIES_ENABLED = true`
- new `src/desktop/constants/featureFlags.ts` → same `true` override —
**required**: desktop's `@app` alias has no saas layer, and desktop
already gates policies on `POLICIES_ENABLED && useConfirmedSaaSMode()`,
so without a `true` here that runtime gate could never be satisfied.
Behaviour unchanged: desktop shows policies only when connected to SaaS.
- `PoliciesSidebar.test` mocks the flag on (it tests the component, not
the build gate — same pattern the existing `usePolicyAutoRun.retry.test`
uses).
## Backend (`@Profile("saas")` gate)
The saas backend runs under the `saas` Spring profile (as
`EntitlementGuard`, the AI controllers, etc. already do). The policy
beans are now `@Profile("saas")`, so `/api/v1/policies/*` and the
auto-run triggers exist **only** in the saas backend:
`PolicyController`, `PolicyEngine`, `PolicyRunner`, `PolicyRunRegistry`,
`PolicyValidator`, `JpaPolicyStore`, `FolderInputSource`,
`FolderOutputSink`, `InlineOutputSink`, `PolicyAccessGuard`,
`FolderAccessGuard`, `FolderWatchTrigger`, `ScheduleTrigger`,
`PolicyTriggerManager`.
**Deliberately *not* gated:** `PolicyExecutor` — `AiWorkflowService`
(always-on) injects it to run ad-hoc pipelines, so it stays
profile-free. It only depends on shared infra (`InternalApiClient`,
`ToolMetadataService`, `TempFileManager`, `ObjectMapper`), so leaving it
on is safe. Gating the engine/store/triggers as a set keeps wiring
consistent (nothing un-gated depends on a gated bean).
The saas `PolicyManagementAuthority` impl
(`TeamLeaderPolicyManagementAuthority`, `@Profile("saas")`) satisfies
`PolicyAccessGuard` in the saas context.
`AdminPolicyManagementAuthority` (`@Profile("!saas")`) becomes an unused
orphan in non-saas builds — harmless; left as-is rather than expanding
this PR's scope.
## Testing
- Frontend: full suite **869 pass**; typecheck clean on
proprietary/saas/core.
- Backend: `:proprietary` compiles, spotless clean, policy tests pass,
and the proprietary (non-saas) Spring context still boots with the
policy beans gated out (verified via the MCP `@SpringBootTest`
integration tests — no missing-bean failures).
Net: SaaS web build + desktop-in-SaaS-mode get policies (UI + API);
self-hosted proprietary and core get neither the UI nor the
`/api/v1/policies` endpoints.
# Description of Changes
Currently, `task dev` explicitly calls the backend with
`AIENGINE_ENABLED=true` even though it isn't being spawned, so you just
get a dead FAB in the UI. This PR fixes it so that the engine will only
be enabled for tasks that will actually spawn the engine.
It also fixes a bug with the chat which makes it unusable locally. The
API path was not going through `apiClient` so for local dev you end up
with `//api/v1/...` which is not a valid path, so you get CORS errors
when trying to connect to the AI engine.
# Description of Changes
Redesign policy running so the server is in charge of policy IDs and
running, to make it impossible to have the frontend miss the results.
This solves a minor bug that we currently have in policies, where if you
load a file and then refresh while the policy is running, you'll never
receive the outputted file.
Complete legacy-credits teardown ("Group 3"). The per-user/per-team
credit model is fully superseded by PAYG (`wallet_ledger`) — confirmed
no PAYG code references it. Authorized to also remove the `TeamCredit`
pool + its monthly reset.
## Frontend (saas)
- Deleted `saas/hooks/useCredits.ts`, `apiKeys/hooks/useCredits.ts`,
`types/credits.ts`, `apiKeys/UsageSection.tsx`.
- `UseSession.tsx`: removed credit members (`creditBalance`,
`creditSummary`, `hasSufficientCredits`, `updateCredits`,
`refreshCredits`, `fetchCredits`) + the credit types + global
credit-update callback. **Kept** `isPro`/`refreshProStatus` and the
Supabase auth subscription listener.
- `services/apiClient.ts`: removed the dead `x-credits-remaining`
handler + low-credit plumbing (token-refresh / PAYG / 401 logic
untouched).
- Credit refs removed from `ApiKeys.tsx`, `AppConfigModal.tsx`,
`auth/teamSession.ts`.
## Java (:saas)
**Deleted (15):** `UserCredit`(+repo),
`TeamCredit`(+repo)+`TeamCreditService`, `CreditService`,
`CreditHeaderUtils`, `CreditResetScheduler`, `CreditController`,
`CreditInterceptorConfig`, `UnifiedCreditInterceptor`,
`CreditSuccessAdvice`, `CreditErrorAdvice`, `CreditConsumptionResult` (+
the CreditController test).
**Edited — stripped legacy credit side-effects, preserved
auth/role/AI/PAYG logic:**
- `AiCreate`/`AiProxyController`: dropped the
`X-Credits-Remaining`/`X-Credit-Source` response header (its only
consumer, the desktop credit system, was already removed).
- `SaasTeamService`: dropped UserCredit/TeamCredit init on team-create +
seat-update.
- `SupabaseAuthenticationFilter` / `SupabaseSecurityConfig`: dropped
`getOrCreateUserCredits` on signup + the credit field/CORS header.
- `UserRoleService`: dropped `resetCycleAllocationForRoleChange`;
`ROLE_PRO_USER` grant/revoke preserved.
- proprietary `UserRepository`: dropped
`findUsersWithApiKeyButNoCredits()`.
- Tests updated to drop credit mocks/refs.
## Kept / scope
- `isPro` / `is_pro` RPC / `ROLE_PRO_USER` (that's the separate Group-4
/ EE effort) and **all PAYG** are untouched.
- **No DB tables dropped.** `user_credits`/`team_credits` stay until a
later **gated** migration — which this PR unblocks (the JPA entities
that pinned them are gone).
## Verify
`:saas:compileJava` + `:saas:compileTestJava` pass; FE `tsc --noEmit`
(saas) + eslint clean; 0 stray artifacts; no residual source refs to the
deleted classes.
## Follow-up (not in this PR)
`ErrorTrackingService` (+
`UserErrorTracker`/`ProcessingErrorType`/`CreditsProperties`) is now a
dead island — its only callers were the deleted interceptors. Safe to
delete, but it cascades beyond the credit scope, so it's a separate
tidy-up.
Targets `feat/desktop-cloud-saas-reuse`.
## What & why
Chained on top of #6649 (the `cloud/` refactor). The AI assistant was
effectively dead on desktop:
1. **Hidden** — `ChatFAB` gates on `aiEngineEnabled`, which desktop
reads from the **local** bundled backend's `/api/v1/config/app-config`.
The local backend has no AI engine, so the flag is always `false` and
the FAB never renders.
2. **Mis-routed** — even if shown, AI calls used `getApiBaseUrl()`,
which is empty/local on desktop, so the orchestrate stream and AI
result-file download missed the engine (which only runs in the cloud).
This PR wires AI properly **without hardcoding it on**, so the cloud
keeps the kill switch: flip `aiEngineEnabled` server-side and the
desktop FAB disappears on the next load — no desktop release required.
(Deliberately *not* assume-on, so a future "turn AI off" doesn't strand
shipped versions.)
## Changes
**General SaaS app-config service** (reusable for any cloud flag, not
just AI):
- `desktop/services/saasAppConfigService.ts` — SaaS-mode-only fetch +
5-min cache of the **public** `/api/v1/config/app-config` from the
**SaaS** backend over native HTTP (`@tauri-apps/plugin-http`, no CORS).
Returns `null` outside SaaS mode.
- `desktop/hooks/useSaasAppConfig.ts` — hook over it; reloads on
connection-mode change.
**AI gating + routing seams:**
- `useAiEngineEnabled()` — core reads `useAppConfig()` (web), desktop
reads `useSaasAppConfig()`. `ChatFAB` consumes it.
- `getAiBaseUrl()` — core uses the normal API base (web), desktop points
AI calls at the SaaS backend. `ChatContext` uses it for the orchestrate
stream + result-file download.
- `operationRouter` — route `/api/v1/ai/*` to the SaaS backend
(cloud-only prefix).
**Docs:** AGENTS.md gains a short "cloud feature flags on desktop" note
so the pattern is maintained.
## Verification
- `tsc --noEmit` green for saas / desktop / cloud flavors
- `eslint --max-warnings=0` clean (cloud-layer guardrail respected — the
platform-coupled bits live in `desktop/`)
- New `saasAppConfigService.test.ts` (3 tests) + existing
`operationRouter` / `tauriHttpClient` / `httpErrorHandler` suites green
- 0 stray compiled artifacts
## Not headlessly verifiable — needs a live Tauri smoke
The orchestrate **SSE stream** uses the webview's global `fetch` (native
HTTP can't stream the body the same way), so it's subject to browser
CORS to the SaaS backend. The `SupabaseSecurityConfig` tauri-origin
allowance (from #6649) covers it, but please confirm on a real build:
open the FAB in SaaS mode, run an agent task, watch the stream + a
result-file download succeed.
# Description of Changes
One of the Playwright tests is flaky, despite several attempts to fix it
before it made it into main. This disables the test for now so a
followup PR can try to fix it again.
Closes#6518
# Cause of the bug
This is a fix to the #6518 issue. The bug happened because the link
toolbar was rendered inside the PDF page layer. That layer can be
affected by the viewer/page rotation transform, so the toolbar was laid
out using local page coordinates and then visually transformed together
with the page.
As a result, the placement logic could calculate a position that was
correct in the page’s local coordinate space, such as above or below the
link, but the parent transform would rotate or shift that result after
layout. On rotated pages, this could make the toolbar appear on the
wrong side, inverted, or misaligned relative to the link.
More specifically, in the PDF that exposed the bug, the page content
appears to have been authored upside down and then corrected with a
180-degree page/viewer rotation so it looks normal to the user.
Because the toolbar was rendered inside the same transformed page layer,
it inherited that 180-degree rotation as well. The PDF content looked
upright because the rotation was part of how the page was displayed, but
the toolbar is viewer UI and should not be rotated with the page. As a
result, the tooltip appeared upside down even though the PDF itself
looked correct.
# Description of Changes
Fixes the inverted link tooltip/toolbar positioning in rotated PDF
viewer pages.
The link toolbar is now rendered through a body portal and positioned
from the link element’s real viewport bounds, so page rotation
transforms no longer flip or misalign it.
The update also keeps the toolbar within the viewport during scroll,
resize, zoom, and rotation changes, preserves the hover delay between
the link and toolbar, centralizes the z-index in a shared constant, and
improves label sizing to avoid clipped text.
Note: The link hover styling was also changed from an underline to a
subtle rectangular highlight based on the PDF link annotation bounds.

## What & why
Production reports of policy enforcement "hanging" traced to
large/many-page documents: the watermark step's flatten-to-image
(`convertPDFToImage`) on a 500+ page PDF takes minutes, exceeding both
the client poll cap and the backend per-step timeout. This makes the
slow case graceful instead of looking broken, and makes load-shedding
non-fatal.
### Poll runs to completion (no false "hang")
The client poll loop used a flat ~150s cap that was **shorter than the
backend's 300s per-step timeout**, so it abandoned long-but-healthy runs
mid-flight. The budget is now sized to the backend's real worst case —
`stepCount × per-step timeout + grace`, learned from the first status
report — so the client always polls long enough to surface the run's
**actual** terminal state (success or the backend's real error) rather
than a misleading client-side timeout.
### Per-step progress
The activity feed now shows `Enforcing… · step n/m` (from
`currentStep`/`stepCount`), so a slow step shows movement instead of a
dead spinner.
### Soft-retry on queue rejection
Under load the shared `JobQueue` rejects runs ("queue full"), which
previously surfaced as a hard failure needing a manual Retry. The
backend now tags that rejection with a stable `POLICY_QUEUE_FULL`
errorCode; the client treats it as transient backpressure and
**auto-retries the file in place** with exponential backoff (≈4s→64s, ~2
min), shown as a soft "Busy — retrying…" row, falling back to the manual
Retry only once the retry budget is spent.
## Testing
- **Frontend unit tests** (30 pass across the policies suite), including
a new `usePolicyAutoRun.retry.test.tsx` that drives the real controller
orchestration (poll → `POLICY_QUEUE_FULL` → relabel → backoff → in-place
re-dispatch), plus poll-budget, step-progress, and activity-feed relabel
cases.
- **Backend** `PolicyEngineTest` case asserting a queue-rejected run
carries the `POLICY_QUEUE_FULL` code.
- Typecheck clean on all three flavors (proprietary/saas/core); prettier
+ spotless clean.
- Poll-budget + progress + real-error surfacing were also verified live
end-to-end against a 599-page run (survived past the old cap, showed
step progress, reported the backend's real 300s-timeout failure,
recovered after a simulated network drop).
## Not included (follow-ups)
- The underlying flatten-to-image cost itself (bounded-memory/streaming
flatten, revisiting `convertPDFToImage` default and the 300s timeout) —
the real perf fix, deliberately out of scope here.
# Description of Changes
Fix Playwright failing test in SaaS (I think this is my third attempt
now so who knows if this will actually fix it for real this time, but
hopefully it does)
