feat(daemon): remote kit sessions over iroh (kit daemon / kit --remote) - #113
Merged
Conversation
Add a remote-session transport built as supervisor + sidecar: - kit daemon: accept loop that pairs with a one-time 8-char code, spawns 'kit --pick-dir' in a PTY (home dir) so the remote peer picks the working directory, hosts the session, then rotates the code and waits again. - kit --remote CODE: attaches the local terminal in raw mode to the remote PTY; Ctrl-] detaches. All work runs on the daemon host; the TUI is unchanged and rendered remotely. - kit --pick-dir (hidden): pre-kit.New() directory picker modal so config/skills/extensions resolve against the chosen directory. - contrib/kit-tunnel: Rust sidecar owning all iroh logic (seed-derived endpoint identity from the pairing code, mutual-HMAC pairing handshake, frame relay over stdio). QUIC keep-alive + idle timeout detect silently vanished peers. Handshake speaks first from the client: a QUIC open_bi stream carries no bytes until written, so a server-first hello never reaches accept_bi. Verified end to end in tmux: pairing, picker, full agent turn with extension widgets, SIGWINCH resize propagation, detach, wrong-code failure, silent client death recovery (idle timeout), code rotation across sessions, and clean SIGINT shutdown.
'task build' only produced the Go binary, so after 'task clean' or a fresh clone, 'task dev -- daemon' failed with 'kit-tunnel sidecar not found'. Add a tunnel task (cargo build + copy into output/, skipped with a warning when cargo is absent) as a dependency of build, and mkdir the output dir before copying. Also teach FindTunnelBinary a repo-dev fallback (contrib/kit-tunnel/ target/release) so 'go run ./cmd/kit daemon' works from the repo root, and point the error message at 'task tunnel'. Verified: task clean -> task dev -- daemon -> task dev -- --remote connects, picker renders, TUI runs, detach rotates the code.
…mbedded sidecar 1. One endpoint serves many clients. The sidecar accept loop assigns a session id per verified connection and multiplexes relayed frames with it (protocol v2: 7-byte header adds a u32 session field). The Go daemon keeps a session table and runs one 'kit --pick-dir' PTY child per session. The pairing code stays valid for the daemon's lifetime; failed handshakes now back off exponentially (the old rotate-per-attempt limit is gone) and concurrent sessions are capped. 2. Exiting a session only closes that client. A child exit sends BYE for that session id, which closes only that QUIC connection; other sessions, the endpoint, and the code are untouched. 3. Embed the sidecar: 'task build' stages kit-tunnel-<goos>-<goarch> into internal/daemon/embedded/ (gitignored), go:embed carries it in the kit binary, and first use extracts it to ~/.cache/kit/tunnel/ keyed by SHA-256. Lookup order: KIT_TUNNEL_BIN > next to binary > repo build > embedded > PATH. Verified in tmux: two concurrent sessions over one code (both TUIs interactive), /quit in one session closes only that client (session 2 kept running), detach closes its own session, a third client reuses the same code afterwards, and the daemon runs from a foreign cwd with no external sidecar using the extracted embedded copy.
The dir picker rendered inline (no alt screen), so its last frame was painted into the terminal's normal buffer; the session TUI merely covered it with alt screen, and when the user quit the remote session the alt screen was simply left — revealing the stale picker frame instead of the shell. Two fixes: - dir picker: use alt screen and disable it on the quitting render, mirroring AppModel's pattern. Nothing is left in the normal buffer, locally or remotely. - client (--remote): emit a terminal reset on teardown (alt screen off, cursor on, mouse/bracketed paste off, kitty keyboard popped). The client is the terminal's state keeper when the remote side can die mid-frame without emitting its own restore sequences. Verified in tmux: /quit from a remote session now lands the client on a clean shell line (only 'Remote session ended.'), esc-cancel of the picker is clean remotely and locally with kit --pick-dir.
…service - Single instance per user: the daemon holds an exclusive flock on ~/.cache/kit/daemon/daemon.lock for its lifetime. Kernel-owned, so crashes release it automatically; a second 'kit daemon' exits with the running instance's details instead of silently double-binding. - 'kit daemon status': reads the atomically rewritten daemon.json (pid, pairing code, endpoint, uptime, active session count) and probes the flock to tell a live daemon from stale state. Session counts update as remote sessions open and close. - 'kit daemon service install|remove': writes a systemd user unit (Restart=on-failure, lock-conflict safe via StartLimit*) and enables it with systemctl --user. Because systemd starts with a minimal environment, install captures provider credentials from the calling shell (OPENCODE_*/ANTHROPIC_*/*_API_KEY/*_TOKEN/PROVIDER_* etc.) into ~/.config/kit/daemon.env (0600, referenced as EnvironmentFile, never clobbered once edited). Verified live: status with no daemon / running daemon, second-instance rejection, session count transitions under an active client, service install + agent turn through the systemd-managed daemon, SIGKILL crash-restart by systemd, and service removal.
goreleaser now cross-compiles the Rust sidecar per release target and stages it before each Go build so go:embed bakes the matching binary into every artifact: - scripts/stage-tunnel.sh: maps Go platforms to Rust triples, builds the host target with plain cargo and cross targets with cargo-zigbuild, staging into internal/daemon/embedded/. - .goreleaser.yaml: per-target pre/post hooks stage and unstage the sidecar around each build (.Os/.Arch templating — hook process env does not carry GOOS/GOARCH). - release.yml: Rust toolchain with all five targets, zig, and cargo-zigbuild on the release runner, plus cargo caching. npm needs no change: install.js ships the goreleaser archives and the sidecar is embedded in the kit binary they contain. Verified: goreleaser check; goreleaser build --snapshot --single-target end to end (hooks + embedding + unstaging) and the resulting dist binary serving 'kit daemon' from a foreign cwd with no external sidecar (extracted from the embedded copy).

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The new remote daemon exposes a network endpoint for host-side terminal sessions, but excess unauthenticated connections can create unbounded rejection work and potentially disrupt all active remote sessions. The PR also retains unresolved release-workflow and invalid-input handling risks, so it is not safe to merge until the endpoint resource handling and related security concerns are addressed.

Inline comments:
In @.github/workflows/release.yml:
- Around line 46-59: The release workflow must not restore Rust build artifacts.
Update the “Cache cargo build” step in the release job to remove it or configure
it with lookup-only and save-if disabled, while preserving use-cache disabled
for the “Set up zig (cross toolchain)” step.
In @.goreleaser.yaml:
- Around line 21-29: Serialize GoReleaser target builds by configuring release
execution with parallelism set to 1, ensuring the staging and cleanup hooks
around stage-tunnel.sh and kit-tunnel remain non-concurrent.
Apply the same fix in `@Taskfile.yml` around lines 20 - 31: The cross-build path
does not stage a target-matched sidecar before compiling each artifact.
In `@cmd/root.go`:
- Around line 471-475: Update the remote-mode validation in the root command
around daemon.RunRemote so it rejects any positional files or root arguments,
not only a non-empty positionalPrompt. Preserve remote execution only when no
prompt, attachment, or other positional arguments are supplied.
- Around line 468-493: Reorder root command initialization so remote dispatch
via daemon.RunRemote and directory selection via ui.RunDirPicker occur before
InitConfig runs. Ensure --remote rejects positional prompts and attaches without
local configuration, while --pick-dir changes the working directory before
configuration discovery; preserve cancellation and directory-change error
handling.
In `@contrib/kit-tunnel/src/main.rs`:
- Around line 404-425: Move the failures-based exponential backoff out of the
accept loop and into each spawned per-connection task, applying it before that
task performs the handshake. Retain rate limiting for repeated failed attempts,
and add time-based decay of the shared failures counter rather than resetting it
only after successful handshakes. Update the connection-handling flow around
handle_connection and the failures counter without delaying endpoint.accept() or
unrelated sessions.
In `@internal/daemon/embedded/README.md`:
- Around line 3-5: Update the README description of embedded kit-tunnel binaries
to clarify that builds carry the transport sidecar only after sidecar staging
succeeds; otherwise embeddedTunnelBytes rejects the placeholder and kit falls
back to an external kit-tunnel.
In `@internal/daemon/pairing.go`:
- Around line 20-26: Update the comment above CodeAlphabet and CodeLength to
describe the actual pairing-code properties: it remains valid for the daemon
lifetime, supports multiple sessions, and relies on tunnel-handshake backoff to
throttle guesses; remove the inaccurate short-lived, single-use, rate-limited
characterization.
In `@internal/daemon/runtime.go`:
- Line 64: Make daemon locking OS-specific: move the syscall.Flock operations
used by the runtime lock acquisition and release into Unix-constrained
implementation files, and add a Windows implementation with equivalent supported
behavior so cmd/kit compiles for windows/amd64. Keep the existing daemon lock
lifecycle and semantics unchanged.
In `@internal/daemon/server.go`:
- Around line 162-173: Replace the daemon session event fmt calls in the
surrounding session spawn, start, and end flows with charmbracelet/log
structured logging: use log.Error for spawn failures and log.Info for session
start and end events, including session_id and the relevant error field.
- Around line 158-170: Enforce MAX_SESSIONS atomically in
sessionTable.openSession before calling spawnPickDir, reserving or rejecting the
session while holding the table lock so concurrent admissions cannot exceed the
limit. Preserve the existing rejection and cleanup behavior for sessions that
cannot obtain a slot, and only create the PTY after successful admission.
In `@internal/daemon/service.go`:
- Around line 29-45: Update systemctlUser to accept context.Context as its first
parameter and use exec.CommandContext for the systemctl invocation. Propagate
the Cobra command context through all service operations that call
systemctlUser, preserving the existing error formatting and command arguments.
- Around line 124-126: Update the running-daemon check around ReadStatus so it
safely handles st.Running with a nil st.State, using an unknown PID in the error
message instead of dereferencing st.State.PID; preserve the existing PID output
when state is available.
In `@internal/ui/dir_picker.go`:
- Around line 139-142: In the empty-directory branch of the directory selection
handler, set m.quitting before returning tea.Quit, while preserving the existing
m.selected assignment and quit behavior.

Fixed: - windows: flock is Unix-only — split the daemon lock into build-tagged lock_unix.go/lock_windows.go (LockFileEx); windows/amd64 builds again - reserve the session slot atomically in the accept loop so concurrent authenticating peers cannot exceed the 8-session cap - move handshake backoff into the per-connection task (a failing peer delays itself, not the accept loop) and decay the counter after two quiet minutes so failed guesses cannot pin a permanent delay - dispatch --remote/--pick-dir before cobra's config initializer: a broken local config no longer blocks remote attach, and --pick-dir's chdir now precedes project config discovery - reject any positional argument (prompt or @file) in --remote mode - nil-guard service install when the lock is held before state exists - pass context into systemctl calls (exec.CommandContext) - structured charmbracelet/log events for session start/end/spawn - release job no longer restores Rust build caches (cache-poisoning surface for published binaries); zig caching disabled - serialize goreleaser target builds (shared go:embed staging dir); document build-all's missing sidecar staging - set quitting on the picker's empty-directory path (stale frame bug) - docs: pairing-code lifetime comment, embedded README accuracy, sidecar README fences + full lookup order - rust: wrap blocking stdout writes in block_in_place Skipped: none — all 13 findings triaged as valid. The shared-staging race was addressed by serialization (--parallelism 1) rather than per-target dirs: a single builds entry runs targets sequentially, and the flag enforces it by construction.

Address the CodeRabbit re-review finding: the rust-test job executes PR-controlled Rust code (cargo build scripts) after a default checkout that persists the GitHub token in .git/config. None of the ci.yml jobs push to the repository, so all three checkouts now run with persist-credentials: false.
The previous fix bounded only the post-CLIENT_HELLO stall (handshake read); accept_bi itself could still block forever for a peer that connected but never opened a stream, so eight silent peers held all session slots indefinitely — the exact scenario the review thread flagged. - bound the pre-auth accept_bi wait with HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT; the SlotGuard releases the reserved slot on expiry - extend the regression test to cover both stall variants: peers that never open a stream and peers that stall after CLIENT_HELLO; asserts the cap holds under stall and that slots expire

Address the re-review finding: reject_session_full waited on accept_bi and a CLIENT_HELLO read with no deadline, so an over-cap peer that stalled (or never opened a stream) pinned its rejection task indefinitely. - deny as soon as the stream opens (the CLIENT_HELLO read added nothing — the peer is refused regardless) and finish the stream so the peer reliably sees the denial - bound every wait in the rejection path with HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT - extend the regression test: two over-cap peers that never open a stream are connected and their connections must be reaped within the pre-auth window

- Around line 493-499: Update reject_session_full to acquire a bounded semaphore
or equivalent rejection-task budget before performing the handshake, and
immediately close or reject the incoming connection when that budget is
exhausted. Ensure the permit is released when the task finishes so
HANDSHAKE_TIMEOUT remains a per-task limit without allowing unbounded concurrent
rejection tasks.

Address the re-review finding: each over-cap peer spawned a rejection task that lives up to one handshake timeout, so a connection flood pinned unbounded task resources. - a semaphore budget (32) gates polite rejections; beyond it, over-cap peers are closed immediately as unaccepted connections - the regression test now floods 40 silent over-cap peers and asserts the beyond-budget ones are refused right away while the budgeted ones release within the pre-auth timeout
- add an advanced/remote-sessions page: quick start, command table, multi-session behavior, systemd service, security model, and a troubleshooting table - register the page in the tome navigation and add a Remote sessions section to the CLI commands reference plus a --remote flag row - add a Remote Sessions bullet to the README feature list

feat(daemon): remote kit sessions over iroh —
kit daemon/kit --remoteDescription
Adds a remote-session mode:
kit daemonruns on one machine, andkit --remote <CODE>attaches a local terminal to it. All work (agent,tools, extensions, sessions) executes on the daemon host; the client
terminal is a raw-mode mirror, so the TUI is byte-for-byte identical to a
local run.
On connection the remote peer picks a working directory from a new
directory-picker modal (starting in the daemon user's home directory,
before
kit.New()so config/skills/extensions resolve against the chosendirectory), then the session TUI takes over.
Key design decisions:
contrib/kit-tunnel, iroh 1.1).It binds an endpoint whose keypair is derived from the pairing code's
seed, so the code alone is what makes the daemon findable (n0 DNS/relay
discovery — no tickets, no rendezvous server). A mutual-HMAC handshake
guards the live endpoint, failed handshakes back off exponentially, and
concurrent sessions are capped.
the TUI/agent/extensions can never take down the accept loop. Multiple
clients can hold sessions concurrently over one endpoint (protocol v2
frames carry a session id); exiting a session closes only that client.
task buildstageskit-tunnel-<goos>-<goarch>intointernal/daemon/embedded/,go:embedcarries it, and first use extracts it to
~/.cache/kit/tunnel/keyed bySHA-256. Lookup order:
KIT_TUNNEL_BIN→ next to kit binary → repobuild → embedded →
PATH. npm archives need no changes.Operational surface:
kit daemon status— pairing code, endpoint, uptime, active sessioncount (state in
~/.cache/kit/daemon/, single instance enforced by anexclusive
flockthat crashes release automatically).kit daemon service install|remove— systemd user unit(
Restart=on-failure), capturing provider credentials from theinstalling shell into
~/.config/kit/daemon.env(0600) since systemdstarts with a minimal environment.
(cargo-zigbuild) and stage it before each Go build; npm needs no change.
