Stop the terminal's WebView painting over the setup screens
The shell layered its setup and unlock screens over the terminal, which does not work: NativeWebView attaches a real Win32 child HWND through NativeControlHost, and a child window composites above everything its parent paints regardless of visual-tree z-order. The cards rendered sliced at the terminal column's left edge; at the window's default width every one of their buttons fell inside the WebView's rectangle, so the flow could only be completed by keyboard, and a click in that region handed Win32 focus to WebView2 so the text boxes silently stopped accepting keystrokes. The WebView is now collapsed while the vault is not unlocked. The comment that previously forbade this — hiding it means never realising it — was wrong: NativeControlHost creates the native attachment on attach to the visual tree, never consulting layout or visibility, and NativeWebView replays a Source assigned before its adapter exists. A collapsed WebView still starts WebView2, loads the page and lets the renderer attach. Confirmed: 35 msedgewebview2 processes with the control collapsed. What the first connection after unlocking actually depends on is the existing await on WaitForRendererAsync, since the data plane drops frames when no renderer is attached. Also fixes the second visible defect: the default server URL was https://localhost:7217, the API's *second* launch profile, while the README, its appsettings and a plain `dotnet run` all use http://localhost:5233 — so nothing was listening, and an HTTPS client against a plaintext port reports "The SSL connection could not be established", which reads as a certificate problem. The default now matches, a missing scheme is rejected by name instead of parsing as scheme "localhost", and that specific TLS failure now suggests http://. Both new tests fail when the fixes are reverted. Corrections to claims I made earlier and should not have: - docs/platform-flags.md asserted the opposite of the mechanism above and cited an established msedgewebview2 connection as verification. That observation was taken while the overlay was showing but, because of this very bug, the WebView was uncovered and in plain view — so it confirmed only that a visible WebView is realised. A process-level check cannot verify a rendering claim. The entry was also filed under "Local cache". - ITerminalHost was documented as the live seam the app plugs into, with a stub standing in for headless tests. It has no implementation anywhere and no test uses it; the view navigates the control directly. It also counted Avalonia.Controls.WebView and NativeWebView as two interchangeable backends when they are one component, with the Linux backend backwards. - The README claimed the shell's whole path was covered by tests. Its state machine is; its layout is covered by nothing, and a headless test could not have caught this — headless has no native window, so it would have rendered correctly and confirmed the wrong belief. Verified by screenshotting the running app: the card renders complete and centred at the default size, with the button clickable. |

Add the SSH session layer and the terminal data plane
The throughput harness the plan requires before any UI, plus the SSH plumbing under it. 94 new tests, no WebView involved. Credit-based flow control is what makes `yes` survivable. A terminal renders at 60 Hz at best while a remote produces output as fast as the network allows, and the difference has to accumulate somewhere or be refused. Credit is reserved *before* reading, never after: because the pump cannot read more than the renderer has room for, the coalescing buffer is bounded by the window rather than by how fast the remote can talk. When credit runs out the pump stops reading, SSH's own receive window closes, and the remote sshd blocks -- backpressure to the source with no custom protocol. Verified by falsification, not just by passing: with the credit gate removed three tests fail, including the throughput harness's bounded-memory assertion. Acknowledgements are clamped because they cross into JavaScript, where a buggy or hostile page could otherwise claim to have rendered a gigabyte and talk the host into an unbounded read. Host key trust is enforced by *failing* the connection rather than prompting inside the handshake. SSH.NET raises verification synchronously, so consulting the user there would block the handshake on a UI round trip and deadlock the first time the prompt needed the UI thread. Unknown host and changed key become distinct exceptions the caller resolves asynchronously. A mismatch has no retry path at all: a dialog offering to continue is how users are trained to click through the one warning that actually indicates interception. A legitimately rebuilt server is handled by removing the pin in settings, away from the moment of connecting. The data plane serves the renderer page from the same loopback listener as the socket, which makes Origin predictable -- always http://127.0.0.1:{port} -- where a WebView virtual-host mapping would give a different origin per backend and nothing to validate. The token is substituted at serve time, so it never touches disk and never appears in a URL. Being clear about what that buys: not protection from a process running as this user, which can read our memory anyway, but from a page in the user's browser attempting WebSocket connections to loopback ports, which is a real and routine thing. Two bugs the tests caught. The accept loop handled connections serially, so an upgraded WebSocket parked it inside the receive loop and every later request went unanswered -- the page's own script among them. The suite hung rather than failed, which is how I found it. And SHA-1 is unavoidable here: RFC 6455 mandates it for Sec-WebSocket-Accept, where it authenticates nothing. Suppressed narrowly with that reasoning; the alternative, HttpListener.AcceptWebSocketAsync, throws PlatformNotSupportedException off Windows. |
