What & why

Fixes #9309.

Settings → Agents has no way to edit an agent's env (host_agent_configs.env_json), even though the host service already stores, reads and applies it. So to run an agent on a second Claude account, users write the command as env CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=… claude …. In that form folder-trust seeding fails without any message, because resolveTrustFamily only reads the first word of the command (env). Every resume of an automation run then shows the "trust this folder" dialog.

This PR adds the env editor the issue proposes, so env can be set without wrapping the command. The approach is open to maintainer input. CONTRIBUTING asks for agreement on features first, so I'm happy to change the UI.

Trust-through-env-wrappers fix moved to #9394.

Env editor on the agent settings page (AgentDetail)

  • New Environment Variables section under Launch: key/value rows with add and remove. It uses the existing Input/Button primitives and the same save-on-blur pattern as the other fields on the page.
  • An invalid or duplicate variable name (not [A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*, or already used by an earlier row) is marked aria-invalid and not saved. If that row was saved before, its last saved entry is kept, so a typo never drops a variable or blocks saving the other rows. Removing a row always saves. New rows with an empty name are drafts until filled in.
  • Env saves are serialized: one is in flight at a time, the latest edit is queued behind it, and each save compares against the env last sent. While a save is pending or a row has unsaved edits, the rows are the source of truth; the editor adopts the saved env only when it is idle and clean. Restore defaults remounts the editor. Text typed while a save is in flight is kept.
  • Saving the page no longer drops env. The Command field now shows only argv; env lives in its own section, and the env editor is the only thing that writes env. A Command save sends only command and args; an inline VAR=value prefix typed into Command is moved into the env editor and saved there. Before, a command containing shell syntax (&&, |, …) was saved with env: {}, which deleted whatever env was set.

New user-facing strings ("Add variable", "Remove variable", "Variable name", "Variable value" and the hint line) are translated in every locale. "Environment Variables" and "No variables set yet." reuse existing catalog entries.

Not in this PR (possible follow-up, glad to open it separately):

  • The new custom agent form doesn't have the Env editor yet. Env can be set right after the agent is created.

How I tested it

Unit tests: the seed-agent-trust.test.ts tests moved to #9394 with the trust fix.

Checks: bun run lint is clean (no warnings), bun run typecheck passes (42/42 tasks), and bun run check:i18n passes with the regenerated catalogs committed.

bun run test: everything this PR touches passes. A few suites fail locally (re-run after the review fixes) on my machine, and they fail the same way on an untouched upstream/main checkout: cli checkPlugin (4), host-service getGitStatusPartial › a sequence of batches converges…, shared recurrence timezone math › walks a BYHOUR list…. Some timeout-based tests also flaked under full-suite load and pass when run alone (agentJobs router, RendererRouter, FsWatcherManager.refreshIgnores).

End-to-end in the dev desktop app, driven over CDP from this worktree (renderer on its own DESKTOP_VITE_PORT, signed in as the seeded dev account), using real clicks and typing:

  1. Settings → Agent commands → Add agent → Custom agent…, created Claude (work) with command claude --dangerously-skip-permissions.
  2. Add variable → typed CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR / /Users/me/.claude-work, tabbed out. Switched to another agent and back: the row is still there.
  3. Edited the Command field to claude --dangerously-skip-permissions --verbose and tabbed out. Env was kept (the case that used to be lost).
  4. Typed an invalid name 1BAD-KEY: the field is marked invalid and nothing is saved. Removing that row, then removing CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR, saved {}.
  5. After the review fixes, each case checked against host.db:
    • typing a value right after the name save keeps the typed value;
    • a second CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR row is flagged and doesn't overwrite;
    • renaming a saved DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER to 1BAD keeps DISABLE_AUTOUPDATER=1 saved;
    • removing another variable while invalid rows exist still saves;
    • a plain Command edit leaves env unchanged;
    • a Command save with an inline INLINE_VAR=1 prefix moves it into the editor and clears it from the field, and removing it in the editor stays removed;
    • a new valid row wins over an invalid row's saved fallback with the same name.
  6. Checked host.db after these steps: command=claude, args_json=["--dangerously-skip-permissions","--verbose"], env_json={"CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR":"/Users/me/.claude-work"} (later {} after the removals).

Summary by CodeRabbit

Summary

  • New Features
    • Configure environment variables for each agent, with controls to add, edit, and remove entries.
    • Inline environment variables in launch commands are moved into the agent’s environment settings when the command is edited.
    • Editing a command without inline variables preserves the configured environment.
    • Claude and Codex agents are recognized when launched through environment wrappers; trust settings reflect wrapper options that clear or unset variables.
  • Localization
    • Added translations for the environment variable editor and its guidance across supported languages.

…nv wrappers

Settings → Agents had no way to edit an agent's env (host_agent_configs.env_json),
so users wrapped the command as `env CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=… claude`. That form broke
folder-trust seeding, which only looked at the command's first word.

- Add an Environment Variables editor (key/value rows, add/remove, save on blur)
  to the agent detail page. Invalid names are flagged and never saved.
- The Command field no longer folds env into its text, and saving it merges any
  inline `VAR=value` prefix into the existing env instead of replacing it, so a
  command edit can't drop env (previously a command with shell syntax saved env: {}).
- resolveTrustFamily sees through `[env] [VAR=value …] <cmd>`, and the trust
  target honours those inline assignments, so `env CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=/p claude`
  seeds /p/.claude.json.

Walkthrough

Agent settings now include a separate environment-variable editor. Command input separates inline environment assignments from command text. Trust resolution parses wrapped launch commands and applies their environment options when selecting trust targets.

Explanation

Directly linked issue #9309 has two coding requirements. (1) Edit an agent's env in Settings. The whole-PR summary shows AgentDetail rendering AgentEnvEditor (new, under V2AgentsSettings/components/AgentEnvEditor). It provides key/value rows, add and remove controls, name validation, and commits through the agent update mutation. Command saves send only command and args, so they no longer overwrite env. (2) Pre-trust the session folder when the command uses an env wrapper. At head, seed-agent-trust.ts defines unwrapEnvCommand, which skips a leading env (bare or by path), its -i/-u/--unset options, and leading VAR=value tokens. resolveTrustFamily uses the unwrapped executable. resolveTrustTarget applies wrapper assignments over {...resolveDefaultAccountEnv, ...config.env}, so env CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=/p claude selects /p/.claude.json. The issue's expected outcome matches this behavior. The added tests cover these paths, as described in the PR. Account selection is not required, because the issue lists it as an alternative and the PR does not claim it.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

All changed areas connect to #9309. AgentEnvEditor and AgentDetail implement the env editor. seed-agent-trust.ts and its test file implement wrapper-aware trust seeding; the inspected head file shows only the trust-resolution, command-parsing, and dependency-related changes described in the summary. shell-quote (host-service package.json) is required for command tokenization. areEnvMapsEqual export in agent-launch-command.ts supports the editor's change detection. The i18n .po catalog additions provide translations for the new UI strings. The PR states that resolveAgentLaunchPresetId, ~ expansion, and the new-custom-agent form are excluded, and the changed files do not touch them. No unrelated feature or refactor is shown. Limitation: the AgentDetail and AgentEnvEditor evidence comes from the whole-PR summary, and those files were not read directly.

Explanation

The description includes the required What & why, How I tested it, and Checklist sections. It explains the user problem, implementation scope, validation behavior, test results, manual verification, screenshots, and known unrelated test failures.

[Medium impact] The changes affect agent settings and launch-time trust seeding.

Fix the two save-order problems before merging; both can discard users’ variable changes.

Findings

  1. P1 Save responses erase newer typing ▶
  2. P1 Command saves undo variable changes ▶
  3. P2 Duplicate names silently overwrite values ▶
Fix with agent prompt
### Issue 1
apps/desktop/src/renderer/routes/_authenticated/settings/agents/components/V2AgentsSettings/components/AgentEnvEditor/AgentEnvEditor.tsx:53-57
Entering a variable name and tabbing to its value saves the row with an empty value. If the user starts typing before that save returns, this effect replaces their text with the saved empty value. It also changes the row IDs, which removes focus. Keep newer local edits when an earlier save returns.

### Issue 2
apps/desktop/src/renderer/routes/_authenticated/settings/agents/components/V2AgentsSettings/components/AgentDetail/AgentDetail.tsx:221-222
Command edits now send the whole `config.env`, even when the command contains no inline assignments. If the user saves a variable and quickly edits the command before that save returns, this sends the old environment again. The server replaces the saved environment with that old copy, undoing the variable change. Keep command-only saves from writing an old environment, and coordinate saves that change both.

### Issue 3
apps/desktop/src/renderer/routes/_authenticated/settings/agents/components/V2AgentsSettings/components/AgentEnvEditor/AgentEnvEditor.tsx:30-32
Duplicate variable names are accepted, but `toEnv` silently keeps only the last row. Adding a second row with an existing name, or renaming a row to that name, can overwrite a saved value without marking either row invalid. Reject duplicate names before saving and show which rows conflict.

---

For each issue above, determine whether it is valid and should be fixed. If so, fix it directly.

Summary

Adds an environment-variable editor to agent settings and lets folder-trust seeding recognize env wrappers.

  • Agent settings keep environment values separate from command text.
  • Folder trust follows agent commands wrapped with env assignments.

Deferred by lacherogwu: resolveAgentLaunchPresetId wrapper detection, tilde expansion, and an environment editor in the new-agent form were explicitly left for possible follow-ups.

Minor follow-up Skip env option tokens when resolving the trust family.

68-75: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | 💤 Low value

Skip env option tokens when resolving the trust family.

unwrapEnvCommand stops at the first token that is not a NAME=value assignment. For env -u SOME_VAR claude and env -i CODEX_HOME=/profile codex, that token is -u or -i. The executable becomes -u or -i, so resolveTrustFamily returns null and the session folder is not pre-trusted. Skip env options, including the argument that -u takes, before reading the program name.

Address review feedback on ParadevAI#9310:

- Env editor ignores echoes of its own saves (also out of order), so text typed
  while a save is in flight is not reset.
- Each row remembers its last saved entry. An invalid, blank, or duplicate name
  keeps that entry instead of blocking other saves or dropping the variable.
  Duplicates are flagged; the first row wins. Removals always save.
- Build the env map with Object.fromEntries so `__proto__` is kept as a key.
- Command saves send env only when the command has an inline VAR=value prefix,
  so a command edit cannot resend an older env.
- Trust seeding tokenizes raw command strings with shell-quote (quoted values,
  stops at shell operators) and honours `env -i` / `-u NAME` / `--unset=NAME`.

Minor follow-up Trust seeding misses env -S wrappers.

93-95: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Trust seeding misses env -S wrappers.

unwrapEnvCommand stops at -S, so the executable resolves to -s and CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR is not read. For a custom agent with command: "env" and args: ["-S", "CLAUDE_CONFIG_DIR=/profile claude"], no trust is seeded for /profile. On platforms where env accepts -S, the session folder can still show the trust prompt in that profile.

The -S value is a string that env splits itself. Its split rules differ from shell parsing, so a fix should follow env -S splitting rules. Raw shell-quote output is not a drop-in replacement: parse can return operator objects, which the file already filters out in commandPrograms. Those objects must not be handled as arguments.

- Cover env options inside a raw command string in tests.

Minor follow-up Keep a newer command draft when a save completes.

240-246: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Keep a newer command draft when a save completes.

The command input stays editable while the save runs. Two paths replace the draft with the saved command. The onSuccess callback in handleCommandBlur overwrites it unconditionally. The config-sync effect also overwrites it when the saved args array changes. Text typed after blur and before the save completes can be lost.

Apply the draft check in onSuccess. Replace the draft only when it still equals the submitted text:

Suggested fix
 					onSuccess: (updated) =>
-						setCommandText(
-							getAgentCommandText({
-								command: updated.command,
-								args: updated.args,
-							}),
-						),
+						setCommandText((current) =>
+							current === commandText
+								? getAgentCommandText({
+										command: updated.command,
+										args: updated.args,
+									})
+								: current,
+						),

In the config-sync effect, the baseline is the text the effect last synced from the config. Declare it next to the commandText state, and add useRef to the React import:

+	const syncedCommandTextRef = useRef(
+		getAgentCommandText({ command: config.command, args: config.args }),
+	);
 	useEffect(() => {
 		setLabel(config.label);
-		setCommandText(
-			getAgentCommandText({ command: config.command, args: config.args }),
-		);
+		const nextCommandText = getAgentCommandText({
+			command: config.command,
+			args: config.args,
+		});
+		const previousCommandText = syncedCommandTextRef.current;
+		syncedCommandTextRef.current = nextCommandText;
+		setCommandText((current) =>
+			current === previousCommandText ? nextCommandText : current,
+		);

only if it still matches that baseline; advance the baseline whenever config
changes.

Address the third review round on ParadevAI#9310:

- The env editor sends one save at a time and queues the latest rows behind an
  in-flight save. Each save compares against the env last sent, not the
  persisted prop, so a quick revert is never skipped.
- Resync from the `env` prop only for a change that is not this editor's own
  echo. This replaces the set of committed envs, which could hide a later
  external change such as Restore defaults.
- Advance a row's saved entry from the submitted values once the save resolves.
- Rows that keep their saved name claim it before renamed or new rows, so a
  rename onto an existing name is flagged instead of overwriting it.
- Keep text typed in the command field while its save is in flight.
- Parse the attached `env -uNAME` form.

@coderabbitai Re the follow-up "Keep a newer command draft when a save completes": e305bfc applies your onSuccess change, so text typed in the Command field after blur is kept and only replaced when it still equals the submitted text. I left the config-sync effect as it is. It resets every field on this page (label, prompt/resume/fork args, transport) when the saved config changes, and that behaviour existed before this PR. Changing it only for Command would make the fields inconsistent, so I think it belongs in its own change.

@lacherogwu Thanks for applying the onSuccess guard in e305bfc29. That addresses the callback-specific overwrite.

I agree that changing the shared config-sync effect belongs in a separate change that handles all fields consistently. I won’t request a Command-only exception in this PR.

Would you like a follow-up issue for preserving unsaved drafts when the saved config changes?

Address the fourth review round on ParadevAI#9310:

- Command saves send only command and args. Inline VAR=value prefixes are
  handed to the env editor (assign), which saves them through its serialized
  queue, so the two fields can no longer race on the full env map.
- An external env change that arrives while an editor save is in flight is
  kept and applied once that save settles, instead of being dropped. Echoes of
  this editor's own saves in the current burst are still ignored.

Address the fifth review round on ParadevAI#9310:

- Drop the echo heuristics (sent-in-burst set, deferred external env). A
  full-config response from another save can carry an older env, so value
  matching cannot tell an echo from an external change. The editor now adopts
  the saved env only when no save is pending and no row has unsaved edits;
  otherwise its rows stay the source of truth and queued edits are always sent.
- Restore defaults, the only in-app writer of env besides the editor,
  remounts the editor explicitly.
- Inline assignments from the command field update the accepted row for a
  name, not a rejected duplicate above it.

An external env change that arrived while rows had unsaved edits was never
applied if the user then reverted those edits. Run the idle-and-clean adoption
check on row changes too, not only on env changes.

The env-wrapper folder-trust fix for host-service now lives in its own
PR (ParadevAI#9394). This PR keeps only the agent env editor.
