fix(preview): closing a desktop preview tab lets its page unload first #35967

Openshivamhwp(GitHub profile, opens in a new tab)wants to merge 6 commits intomain fromrefs/pull/35967/headopened View on GitHub

Problem

Closing a desktop-rendered preview tab from the client removed its webview before the page could unload. The web client dropped the tab's session before sending the close request, which unmounted the webview and destroyed the page. So beforeunload and pagehide never ran. Agent close already let the page unload; the client path did not.

Closes https://github.com/pingdotgg/t3code/issues/34923

Change

  • The close RPC now goes through ServerBrowser.close. It runs the same bounded unload agent close already used (up to the existing 5 s grace) on desktop pages before it closes the session. Capacity reclamation, a close during attachment, and an interrupted close use the same path.
  • The web client keeps a tab that its desktop renders mounted until the server publishes the close, so the page stays alive while it unloads. The right-panel tab still disappears at once. A successful close removes the session locally, and a stale snapshot cannot restore a closed tab.

Trade-offs:

  • A normal close now waits for the page's unload, usually milliseconds. A page that never fires pagehide holds its webview for up to the grace period. In the worst case, when the page is still attaching, a close takes about 10 s.
  • Legacy desktop-runtime tabs (no server page) still close without unload. This change does not touch them.
  • PR #35135 changes only the server ordering. In a real desktop app the page is already destroyed by the time that code runs, so it does not fix this. Measured on Linux. This PR supersedes it.

Scope

One bug: closing a desktop preview tab skips its unload. The change touches the server preview close path and the web preview store and close helper. It adds no RPC and changes no schema.

Verification

Head c72a5295d31, rebased on main b23f94e4a16. Three commits: the fix, a follow-up for the close-path races found in review, and a second follow-up for reservation and stale-snapshot handling.

  • vp run check:changed on the head: format, lint, knip, graphql, typecheck of 4 packages, tests in 6 files, React compiler. Passed.
  • Focused tests: ServerBrowser.test.ts, ServerBrowserStream.test.ts, ws.test.ts (the previewClose route), and closePreviewSession.test.ts. Each new case fails on the previous commit for its stated reason.
  • Desktop, Linux x86_64, Electron 44.10.1, unpackaged build. A probe page logs beforeunload, pagehide and visibilitychange through sendBeacon.
    • Before (b23f94e4a16): 0 of 2 runs received the unload events before the guest was destroyed.
    • After (c72a5295d31): normal close, 2 of 2 runs, both events before destruction. A double click gives exactly one of each.
  • Desktop, macOS 27.0.1 arm64, unpackaged build.
    • Before (b23f94e4a16): 2 of 2 runs with no unload events.
    • After (c72a5295d31): 2 of 2 runs, both events before the panel tab was observed gone.
  • Plain browser web client, Linux Chrome. Closing a non-native preview behaves the same before and after: the tab goes, the close succeeds, there are no console errors, and the tab stays closed after reload. Two runs each.

Screenshots: the pre image shows the preview tab open; the post image shows it closed. Each pair is from the same run and view.

Not shown: the exact instant the renderer destroys the page (CDP receipt on Linux; accessibility observation on macOS); legacy desktop-runtime tabs; Windows; unload blocked by a dialog; two agents reclaiming a slot at the same moment.

Model and harness: Claude Opus 5.5 implemented the change. Codex (gpt-6.1-sol) reproduced the bug, ran the before-and-after checks, and reviewed the change, under Claude Code.

    3. Approvability

      Verdict: Approved at d98ec44

      Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Desktop preview tabs now remain mounted while their pages unload, with bounded waits before session teardown. The change is limited to preview lifecycle handling; the supplied minor resource-management and test concerns do not establish material risk requiring human judgment.

      Walkthrough

      Server preview closure now waits for matching desktop tabs to attach and unload before closing sessions. Idle-tab reclamation unloads tabs before freeing slots. After a successful close, the client removes the tab from preview state and prevents later snapshots from restoring it.

      Changes: Preview close lifecycle

      Layer / File(s)Summary
      Desktop unload and session close
      apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.ts, apps/server/src/ws.ts, apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.test.ts, apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowserStream.test.ts
      ServerBrowser.close waits for matching tab openings, unloads desktop pages, and then closes sessions. The WebSocket close route delegates to this operation. Tests cover attachment timing, unload completion, interruption, and session removal.
      Idle-tab reclamation
      apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.ts, apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.test.ts
      Agent opens exclude tabs already being reclaimed and reserve capacity when required. Reclamation unloads a selected hidden tab before freeing its slot. Tests check unload events and concurrent opens at the tab limit.
      Client close state
      apps/web/src/components/preview/closePreviewSession.ts, apps/web/src/previewStateStore.ts, apps/web/src/components/preview/closePreviewSession.test.ts, apps/web/src/hooks/useRightPanelSurfaceClose.browser.test.tsx
      The client skips optimistic close handling for natively rendered server tabs. After a successful close, it removes the session and suppresses the tab ID from later snapshots.

      Explanation

      The title names the primary change: closing a desktop preview tab now lets the page run its unload handlers first. The changeset matches this. The server adds ServerBrowser.close with a bounded unload wait, the RPC routes through it, and the web client keeps the tab mounted until the close is published. The title follows the conventional commit form and is specific enough for a teammate scanning history.

      Full details: Description check

      Explanation

      The description follows the repository template. It has Problem, Change, Scope, and Verification sections. The Problem section gives the cause and the expected behavior, and links issue #34923. The Change section explains the server and web client edits and lists trade-offs. The Scope section states one bug and the files touched. The Verification section lists the commands run, the focused tests, and before-and-after results on Linux, macOS, and web. It names the model and harness and includes screenshots. The Scope section does not explain why no issue is needed, but it links an issue, so that gap is minor. The description also does not cover the untested cases in full detail, but it does list them.

      Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

      Explanation

      The changed files named in the change summaries all relate to the preview close and reclamation path in #34923: ServerBrowser.ts (close, unload, reclamation), ws.ts (previewClose route delegates to serverBrowser.close), ServerBrowserStream.test.ts (test doubles implement close), closePreviewSession.ts and previewStateStore.ts (keep the native tab mounted until close is published; suppress stale restores), and the matching tests in closePreviewSession.test.ts, useRightPanelSurfaceClose.browser.test.tsx, and ServerBrowser.test.ts. The summaries report no schema, RPC, or unrelated feature change. I read the finishPreviewSessionClose diff directly and it matches its stated purpose. The server-side scope judgment relies on summaries, because the ServerBrowser.ts source diff could not be read.

      Full details: Linked Issues check

      Explanation

      [#34923] Directly linked issue. Requirements: (1) client close requests page unload and waits before disconnect; (2) capacity reclamation unloads the desktop tab before eviction; (3) agent close is preserved; (4) client close still removes the session. Verified from source: apps/web/src/previewStateStore.ts adds finishPreviewSessionClose, which removes the session and suppresses the tab ID so a stale snapshot cannot restore it (requirement 4, web side). Not verified from source: the server-side unload behavior. The source diff for apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.ts could not be read because its changed blob is missing from the checkout. Requirements 1, 2, and 3 therefore rest on the AI-generated summary of ServerBrowser.ts and ServerBrowser.test.ts, and on the PR description. The reclamation reservation logic (reserve before reclaim, release on failure) is new code that the summary describes but I could not read. The PR description cites head c72a5295d31 and base b23f94e4a16, which differ from the reviewed head 52ccf5e20c373d6f2c5ef9c78bacf6c263980c6c and merge base 99224f098d5d4d223ab1d04f02935288fe2651cc. The description may describe an earlier revision, so its claims are not treated as proof for the current head.

      Resolution

      Provide readable file content or diff for apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.ts at the reviewed head and merge base. Confirm that ServerBrowser.close unloads matching desktop tabs (bounded by PAGE_CLOSE_GRACE_MS) before closing the manager session. Confirm that freeIdleAgentSlot unloads the longest-idle hidden agent tab before dropping it, and that agent close keeps its existing unload path. Confirm the reservation and release logic for concurrent opens. Also confirm that the test files ServerBrowser.test.ts and ServerBrowserStream.test.ts exercise the unload-before-removal cases in the current head.

      The reclaim path can admit a 33rd live tab because it returns after evicting one tab without rechecking capacity; human-created tabs can already put the server over its 32-tab limit or add a tab during the unload wait. Revalidate capacity before keeping this open’s reservation so the new agent tab does not exceed SERVER_TAB_LIMIT.

      Wait for beforeunload to start before asserting the session stays open.

      pagehideWatched resolves when the pagehide binding is exposed. It does not resolve when page.close starts or records beforeunload. The race at lines 1589-1590 can therefore finish before the unload reaches unloadGate. The browser.close assertion then runs before the test has shown that teardown waits for the unload. A regression that closes the session early can still pass this check.

      Add a milestone that the close mock resolves after it records beforeunload, and await that milestone instead.

      Close only the sessions that existed when the close started.

      When tabId is absent, manager.close(input) closes every session in the thread at the moment it runs. A desktop tab opened for that thread while ServerBrowser.close waits for unloads is not in the closing snapshot. That tab does not unload before its session is removed. Nothing in close serializes it against the unload wait.

      Capture the thread's tab IDs before the unload wait starts. After the unload completes, close only those tabs. Each close can use manager.close({ threadId, tabId }), which targets one session.

      Review comment at @apps/server/src/preview/ServerBrowser.ts at line 3271:
      Update ServerBrowser.close to capture the thread’s tab IDs before waiting for unloads, then close only those captured sessions afterward by calling manager.close with the threadId and each tabId. Do not use the thread-wide close after the wait, so tabs opened during the wait remain untouched.

      ✅ Addressed in commit d98ec44

    8. [Haiku 5.5][Claude Code] on behalf of shivam.

      Findings on #34923 before the handoff. Nothing here is pushed; the local fix is described below.

      Reproduced (base b23f94e4a16, unpatched):

      • macOS arm64 desktop app: closing a desktop preview tab removed the page with no beforeunload or pagehide in 2 of 2 runs.
      • Linux x86_64 desktop app (Electron 44.10.1): the page was destroyed before any unload event in 2 of 2 runs.
      • Plain browser web client: no difference from the fix (see below).

      Tested on the head at takeover (c51a63e7f34):

      • Linux desktop, normal close: 2 of 2. beforeunload and pagehide arrived before CDP reported the guest destroyed.
      • Linux desktop, double click: 1 of 1, one of each event.
      • macOS arm64 desktop, normal close: 2 of 2. Both events arrived before the completed panel-gone observation. Screenshots show the panel closed with nothing else open.
      • Plain browser web client, 2 runs: panel closed, close succeeded, no console errors, tab stayed closed after reload.
      • Boat check (fleet-job check) on c51a63e7f34: format, lint, knip, graphql, typecheck of 4 packages, tests in 6 files, React compiler. All passed.

      Found, not pushed: Macroscope's low finding on previewStateStore.ts is real. When a native close finished after its closed event, the tab was re-added to suppressedTabIds, which keeps the desktop sync subscribed. The fix moves finished closes to a separate closedTabIds set, which still stops a late snapshot from restoring the tab but doesn't hold the sync open. It's committed locally as 2ab5fcd4550. The new test fails on c51a63e and passes on the fix, and 34 focused web tests pass. Julius's ca609797165 drops the ws routing test, so no test covers that route now.

      Not resolved:

      • The failing Test Web 1 job on ca60979 is src/hooks/useRightPanelSurfaceClose.browser.test.tsx. The file failed to load. I didn't investigate it, so I can't say whether this change caused it.
      • Macroscope's reclaim note (capacity rechecked after an eviction) is unverified.

      Evidence: kept on corex under evidence/linux-pr, evidence/web-pr, and evidence/macos-pr. The macOS evidence was pulled from shiv and its SHA-256 sums checked. It is not uploaded to this PR.
