Devika Verma 4fa8acffed compaction: Settings overrides + GUI divider (OPE-27 3/4)
Settings -> Models grows a Context compaction card next to Token savings:
the trigger % of the context window (10-95), the absolute token cap
(clamped 10k-2M), and the summarizer-model pin (default: the session's
own model). POST /v1/settings/compaction persists them; engines read the
knobs live per check, so changes apply to running sessions immediately.

The "context compacted" divider rides the existing notice machinery: the
persisted `compacted` notice replays on reload (itemsFromMessages) and
the live COMPACTED event appends the same info notice mid-turn. The
transcript itself stays intact - outbound-only by construction.

Covered by vitest (marker replay), a settings-card e2e (defaults +
clamped POSTs + model pin), and a mid-session divider e2e driven by the
fixtures' scripted `compacted` event.

coworker GUI (React + Tauri)

A thin client of the coworker server (OpenAI-compatible API + WS event/approval stream). Same codebase runs in a browser (dev) and as the OpenWorker desktop app.

First time: bootstrap the Python backend

A fresh checkout has no server to run — create the venv both flows below expect:

bash platform/packaging/setup_dev_env.sh   # → platform/.venv (server + this repo's aisuite)

Run it (browser, two terminals)

  1. Start the server (needs a model key, e.g. OPENAI_API_KEY, in the environment — or add one later in the app's Settings):
    cd platform
    ./.venv/bin/openworker-server --cwd /path/to/your/project --port 8765
    
  2. Start the UI:
    cd platform/surfaces/gui
    npm install      # first time
    npm run dev      # → http://localhost:5173
    

Open http://localhost:5173. The UI talks to http://127.0.0.1:8765 (override with VITE_COWORKER_HTTP / VITE_COWORKER_WS). Start the server before Vite so the UI can read its per-launch token from <state-dir>/sidecar-8765.token; restart Vite if the server is restarted.

Run the desktop app from source

The Tauri shell wraps the same UI and supervises the Python server itself — no separate terminal. It needs the Rust toolchain (rustup) plus the venv from the bootstrap step; in dev it finds the server at platform/.venv/bin/openworker-server automatically (a packaged sidecar binary is only produced by the release scripts in platform/packaging/).

cd platform/surfaces/gui
npm install        # first time
npm run tauri dev  # builds the shell, launches the window, starts the server

Tests

npx tsc --noEmit && npx vitest run   # typecheck + unit
npx playwright test                  # hermetic e2e (mocked /v1 + WS, no Python needed)
