Chat View (macOS app)

The macOS menu bar app embeds the gateway Chat UI as a native SwiftUI view. It connects to the Gateway and defaults to the main session for the selected agent (with a session switcher for other sessions).
  • Local mode: connects directly to the local Gateway WebSocket.
  • Remote mode: forwards the Gateway control port over SSH and uses that tunnel as the data plane.

Launch & debugging

  • Manual: Fased menu → “Open Chat”.
  • Auto‑open for testing:
    dist/FasedAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/FasedAgent --webchat
    
  • Gateway logs: fased logs --follow.
  • macOS app unified logs: filter subsystem ai.fased and category WebChatSwiftUI with log stream or log show.

How it’s wired

  • Data plane: Gateway WS methods chat.history, chat.send, chat.abort, chat.inject and events chat, agent, presence, tick, health.
  • Session: defaults to the selected Agent’s main session (main, or global when scope is global). The UI can switch between sessions.
  • Onboarding uses a dedicated session to keep first‑run setup separate.

Security surface

  • Remote mode forwards only the Gateway WebSocket control port over SSH.

Known limitations

  • The UI is optimized for chat sessions (not a full browser sandbox).
