ApprovabilityVerdict: Needs Human Approval Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — This PR adds a new empty-server start-screen workflow spanning UI, persisted folder selection, workspace creation, and launcher/keyboard routing. Its customer-facing scope and server-state effects are broader than a small self-contained change. You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more. |

- Around line 2279-2282: Serialize start-screen workspace creation by adding an
observation-ignored isStartingWorkspace guard around startWorkspace(in:),
setting it before create and clearing it when create fails. Clear the guard in
update(model:connection:) once the model reports at least one workspace, and
preserve returning the created rootPaneID on success.

Serialize start-screen workspace creation until the model updates.
create returns after the workspace.create response, but model updates separately. The start screen can remain visible after the response. A second action can therefore issue another workspace.create.
A defer around create releases the guard too early. Keep the guard until update(model:connection:) reports a workspace. Clear it immediately when the request fails.
🛡️ Suggested fix
+ @ObservationIgnored private var isStartingWorkspace = false
+
public func update(model herdrModel: SessionModel?, connection: ConnectionState) {
...
self.model = model
+ if model?.workspaces.isEmpty == false {
+ isStartingWorkspace = false
+ }
...
}
/// The start screen's workspace, in the folder it shows; its first pane,
/// for a launch to run in.
@discardableResult
public func startWorkspace(in folder: String) async -> PaneID? {
+ guard !isStartingWorkspace else { return nil }
+ isStartingWorkspace = true

A server with no workspaces showed an empty rail and a bare "No tab selected", with no visible way to start. Every new server and every new user lands there. It now shows a start screen built from the empty pin's launcher.
