* fix(workers): persist placement terminal failures
* fix(workers): refresh placement protocol clients
* refactor(workers): isolate error formatting
* fix: integrate cloud terminal state with current main
* chore(plugin-sdk): refresh API baseline
* refactor(ui): inline one-use cloud terminal-reason banner helper
Keeps the Control UI startup JS bundle inside its 317 KiB gzip budget
(the helper + type-only import tipped it by 16 bytes).
* refactor(ui): trim terminal-reason lookup to type-erased optional access
Recovers the last gzip byte of the Control UI startup budget
(324609 B vs the 324608 B limit).
* feat(gateway): live desktop observer for cloud workers
Adds live observation for cloud worker desktops through the gateway and Crabbox plugin, including desktop provisioning, persisted desktop metadata, tunneled WebSocket proxying, and the worker.desktop.observe protocol method.
The gateway, Crabbox plugin, and gateway protocol surfaces remain off by default behind the cloudWorkers.desktop Labs flag.

* fix(ci): align rebased SDK and lint baselines
* fix(gateway): enforce view-only RFB boundary and fence desktop teardown
* fix(gateway): tighten RFB filter surface
* fix(state): keep pre-desktop databases readable and harden view-only RFB
* fix(gateway): fence desktop observer upgrades behind work admission
* fix(gateway): bind desktop observer tokens to their owner epoch
* fix(ci): regenerate config and SDK baselines after rebase
* fix(ci): regenerate native protocol and SDK baselines
* fix(ci): regenerate contracts after main rebase
* fix(state): register desktop metadata as lazy additive
* fix(ci): regenerate SDK baseline after final direct-merge rebase
* fix(cloud-workers): close lifecycle ownership gaps
Own bootstrap cleanup at the operation boundary and make fallback workspace sync converge across retries. Re-establish tunnel readiness per connection, retire placements before destructive session mutation, and keep operator diagnostics lightweight and redacted. Cover destructive lifecycle paths in their original execution order.
* fix(cloud-workers): drain local claims before retirement
delete/reset drain admitted local work, re-read exact identity, retire before destructive cleanup; active-claim/race tests.
* fix(cloud-workers): bind retry cleanup to workspace owner
Attest canonical HOME and the exact managed path.
Revalidate ownership before recursive fallback cleanup.
Cover malicious paths and ownership drift with tests.
* fix(cloud-workers): fence fallback workspace receivers
* fix(cloud-workers): honor Crabbox SSH fallback ports
Select a currently reachable advertised SSH endpoint before returning a Crabbox worker lease, while preserving fail-closed teardown. Allow deletion of failed cloud sessions only after the environment record proves the provider lease is gone, and align the Cloud Workers docs with the shipped configuration and Control UI flow.
* fix(cloud-workers): retry advertised SSH endpoints
Persist provider-advertised SSH fallback ports and retry them through the shared pinned transport used by bootstrap, tunnels, reconnects, and workspace transfers. Keep candidate selection provider-neutral, preserve identity and host-key fencing, and add the same-version SQLite column through the existing additive migration path.
* fix(crabbox): recheck SSH readiness after setup
Treat provider setup as a mutating lifecycle phase: refresh authoritative inspect state and wait for SSH readiness again before returning the lease. This prevents bootstrap from racing setup-triggered SSH restarts on fresh and replayed workers while preserving security attestation and fail-closed teardown.
* fix(cloud-workers): retry bootstrap transfers across ports
Use the shared advertised-port candidate runner for bundle transfer, install, and best-effort upload cleanup as well as preflight. This keeps fresh bootstrap connections on pinned identity and host-key semantics when a previously selected SSH port disappears between phases.
Proof passed: 517 focused tests (1 skipped), final autoreview/TruffleHog clean, targeted lint/format. Full check-changed reached the unrelated max-lines baseline drift on current origin/main: this branch's merge base contains ui/src/pages/chat/components/chat-model-controls.ts while current origin/main removed that baseline entry; do not touch the unrelated baseline.
* fix(cloud-workers): persist fallback ports compatibly
Create the fallback-port companion table lazily as an additive surface, preserving downgrade tolerance for binaries that still expect the older shared-state schema.
* fix(cloud-workers): preserve bundle artifact narrowing
Bind the immutable discriminated artifact before the SSH retry callbacks so bundle-only fields remain narrowed across fresh candidate invocations. Use the shared temp-directory owner in the tunnel fallback test for deterministic cleanup.
* fix(cloud-workers): retire deleted placements
Terminal placement rows retire by exact CAS after session deletion, and managed AWS docs now pin the Gateway SSH CIDR.
* fix(crabbox): await pending AWS attestation
missing authoritative metadata is pending only while the lease is non-ready; ready leases still require explicit false.
* fix(cloud-workers): fence remote command retries
require explicit idempotent/never classification; remote worker launch never retries after ambiguous SSH loss.
* fix(cloud-workers): bound SSH fallback operations
Explains dispatching sessions to ephemeral cloud machines: what runs
where, cloudWorkers profile configuration (crabbox provider, setup
command, bundle vs npm install channels), sessions.dispatch usage, the
security model (closed ingress, minted credentials, host-key pinning,
epoch fencing, CAS transcripts), and troubleshooting from the live AWS
E2E.
