Installation and update mechanism, package management.
Adherence to platform-native package management best practices, ease of maintenance and updates.
The request for Homebrew support on macOS indicates a strong user preference for native package management. Relying solely on a `curl` script for installation and updates creates friction and deviates from standard macOS developer workflows. Implementing Homebrew support would significantly impro...

Compatibility with specific terminal environments ('herdr'). Core rendering/display functionality.
Broad compatibility with various terminal emulators.
The report 'not work with herdr' and 'It is blank' indicates a critical failure in rendering or initialization when `tode` is used with the 'herdr' terminal. This suggests a compatibility issue with specific terminal emulators, preventing the application from displaying any UI. Such failures are ...

Installation process, user onboarding, dependency management.
Streamlined, single-command installation experience.
The request to consolidate the `tode` installation into a single `curl` command highlights a user demand for a more streamlined onboarding experience. The current two-step process, where `tode` itself is installed, then `code-server` is fetched on first run, introduces unnecessary friction. This ...

UI scaling, multi-monitor support, display rendering.
Adaptive and correct UI rendering across diverse display configurations.
This issue reports abnormal UI scaling on a dual-monitor Ubuntu setup, specifically with a high-DPI monitor at 1.5x scale. The 'scaled up too much' symptom indicates a failure in `tode`'s display rendering to correctly adapt to varying monitor resolutions and scaling factors. This directly impact...

Core installation mechanism, Node.js module resolution, CommonJS/ESM compatibility.
Robustness in diverse Node.js environments, correct module bundling and deployment.
This critical bug highlights a fundamental flaw in the `tode` installation process, specifically its module resolution strategy. The installer deploys CommonJS output (`dist/main.js`) into an environment where Node.js/Electron incorrectly interprets it as native ESM due to an absent local `packag...

User experience, application lifecycle management, graceful exit.
Intuitive and reliable user interaction, robust application control.
The inability to exit `tode` via standard methods (missing exit button, non-functional CTRL+C quit option) represents a critical usability flaw. Users are trapped within the application, forcing forceful termination. This issue, observed on macOS with Ghostty, points to a fundamental breakdown in...

Internationalization (i18n) support, keyboard input handling, integrated terminal functionality.
Global usability, robust input processing across diverse hardware/software configurations.
This issue exposes a critical internationalization flaw in `tode`'s integrated terminal, specifically with non-US keyboard layouts like French AZERTY on macOS. The inability to type essential characters like `/` or `?` renders the terminal unusable for many developers. The root cause lies in the ...

Distribution method, package management.
Adherence to JavaScript ecosystem distribution standards, developer convenience.
The request to publish `tode` to npm signifies a strong user preference for standard JavaScript ecosystem distribution methods over direct `curl` shell execution. Developers accustomed to `npm install` expect this convenience for command-line tools. Relying solely on a `curl` script is perceived ...

Docker container security configuration for the agent-bot.
Adherence to container security best practices, specifically principle of least privilege. Mitigating privilege escalation vulnerabilities.
This issue identifies a critical security vulnerability within `OpenBot`'s `agent-bot` Docker configuration. Running the application as `root` due to an unspecified `USER` in the `Dockerfile` creates a high-severity `privilege escalation` risk (`CWE-250`). A compromised process could gain full co...

Text processing for SYSTEM_PROMPT output formatting.
Ensuring correct and predictable formatting of AI agent prompts/outputs for readability and functional parsing. Adherence to standard text formatting conventions.
This issue highlights a fundamental text formatting defect within the `SYSTEM_PROMPT` generation. Incorrect paragraph handling leads to malformed output, impacting readability and potentially downstream parsing by AI agents or other systems. The problem indicates a lack of robust text normalizati...

Model access authentication methods, specifically integrating ChatGPT subscription OAuth.
Expanding model access options beyond direct API keys, enhancing user convenience, and potentially reducing friction for users with existing ChatGPT subscriptions. Exploring alternative authentication flows for AI model integration.
This feature request highlights a strategic opportunity for `OpenBot` to broaden its user base and simplify model access. Requiring an `OpenAI API key` creates friction for users already subscribed to `ChatGPT`. Implementing `ChatGPT subscription OAuth` would leverage existing user credentials, i...

User message content parsing within the chat transcript display.
Robustness and safety in handling diverse user input types. Preventing application crashes due to unexpected data structures.
This issue exposes a critical vulnerability in `OpenBot`'s frontend message parsing logic. The `toVisibleChatItems` function makes unsafe assumptions about `message.content` types, leading to `React transcript crashes` when unexpected data structures are encountered. This directly impacts applica...

Hard-wiring of `fx` to Vercel AI Gateway, preventing host-configured custom AI model providers for `libfx` and WASM embeddings.
Open, extensible AI agent platform supporting diverse model backends and deployment scenarios (e.g., browser extensions, self-hosted LLMs).
This issue exposes a critical vendor lock-in for `fx` users, particularly those leveraging `libfx` or WASM embeddings. The hard-wiring to Vercel AI Gateway restricts `fx`'s utility for organizations requiring custom AI model providers, self-hosted LLMs, or direct integration with existing infrast...
