 - **Worker hot-reload driven by a share recipient.** Sharing a worker's source file with write access is how you let a collaborator change that worker's code and have it deploy live. The redeploy running as the file owner, with the owner's worker credentials, is the intended behavior of that grant — the owner chose to hand out write access to executable code. If you do not want that, do not share the source file with write access.
 - **Re-claiming a site or worker name its owner deleted.** A hosted site or worker name that its owner deletes is treated as abandoned by that owner. If one of their apps still points at it, whoever claims the name next serves that app's `index_url` and receives what the app is launched with, and a new app on the same origin may share the old one's identity. Guarding app identities against being recycled this way is ongoing hardening, not a security boundary, so new ways to re-claim an abandoned name, or to inherit an app's tokens or data through one, are not eligible.
 - **Share-mode downgrades that do not cascade.** Demoting a delegate does not retroactively revoke the grants that delegate already issued downstream. Shares are independent grants once issued, not a live-evaluated chain. Revoking the downstream grant is a separate, supported action.

-# AI Drivers
-
-Where the AI driver code lives under [src/backend/drivers/ai/](../src/backend/drivers/ai/), what each folder owns, and how to add a provider or a new AI interface. The general layer rules are in [architecture.md](architecture.md) and [AGENTS.md](../AGENTS.md#backend). This page covers what is specific to AI.
-
-## Layout
-
-```text
-src/backend/drivers/ai/
-├── interfaces/    Puter-facing drivers, one folder per AI interface
-├── providers/     Vendor code, as providers/<vendor>/<interface>/
-├── protocols/     Wire protocols that several vendors speak
-└── shared/        Helpers that more than one interface uses
-```
-
-| Folder | Owns | Example |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `interfaces/<interface>/` | The driver class, the interface's contracts in `types.ts`, its provider base class where one exists, and the helpers and tests that apply to every provider of that interface. | [interfaces/chat/ChatCompletionDriver.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/chat/ChatCompletionDriver.ts) |
-| `providers/<vendor>/<interface>/` | One vendor's implementation of one interface: the adapter, its model catalog and prices, its fixtures, and its tests. | [providers/gemini/video/](../src/backend/drivers/ai/providers/gemini/video/) |
-| `providers/<vendor>/` | Helpers that several of that vendor's interfaces use. | [providers/gemini/geminiRest.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/providers/gemini/geminiRest.ts) |
-| `protocols/openaiCompatible/` | The OpenAI wire protocol: the base provider class, message and usage conversion, and parameter mapping for Chat Completions and Responses. | [protocols/openaiCompatible/OpenAICompatProvider.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/protocols/openaiCompatible/OpenAICompatProvider.ts) |
-| `shared/` | Helpers that more than one interface uses: limits, the provider registry, the remote catalog cache, job polling, streamed charging, and media input. | [shared/aiLimits.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/shared/aiLimits.ts) |
-
-Helpers that non-AI code also uses stay in [src/backend/drivers/util/](../src/backend/drivers/util/): file input, data URIs, upstream error mapping, and stream piping.
-
-AI code that a service also needs lives in [src/backend/util/](../src/backend/util/), because a service can't import from the driver layer. The realtime relay in `services/realtime/` bills through the same cost factor as the drivers, so these three files are there:
-
-| File | Holds |
-| --- | --- |
-| [aiCostFactor.ts](../src/backend/util/aiCostFactor.ts) | `withAiCostFactor`, the metering view every AI driver and the realtime relay record usage through, and `withAiCreditHold`. |
-| [aiProviderKey.ts](../src/backend/util/aiProviderKey.ts) | `readProviderKey`, which reads an API key from `config.providers` blocks. |
-| [aiPrices.ts](../src/backend/util/aiPrices.ts) | Vendor prices that a driver and a service both bill. |
-
-### Interfaces
-
-| Folder | Driver | `driverInterface` | `driverName` | Key in `puterDrivers` |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `interfaces/chat/` | `ChatCompletionDriver` | `puter-chat-completion` | `ai-chat` | `aiChat` |
-| `interfaces/image/` | `ImageGenerationDriver` | `puter-image-generation` | `ai-image` | `aiImage` |
-| `interfaces/video/` | `VideoGenerationDriver` | `puter-video-generation` | `ai-video` | `aiVideo` |
-| `interfaces/textToSpeech/` | `TTSDriver` | `puter-tts` | `ai-tts` | `aiTts` |
-| `interfaces/speechToText/` | `SpeechToTextDriver` | `puter-speech2txt` | `ai-speech2txt` | `aiSpeech2Txt` |
-| `interfaces/speechToSpeech/` | `VoiceChangerDriver` | `puter-speech2speech` | `ai-speech2speech` | `aiSpeech2Speech` |
-| `interfaces/ocr/` | `OCRDriver` | `puter-ocr` | `ai-ocr` | `aiOcr` |
-
-Folder names are not runtime identifiers. `driverInterface`, `driverName`, driver aliases, the keys under `providers` in config, provider ids, model ids, and usage keys are public contracts. Moving or renaming a file never changes them.
-
-## Request flow
-
-A call goes from the interface to a provider, and from there to a shared protocol when the vendor speaks one:
-
-```text
-interfaces/chat/ChatCompletionDriver.ts
-    validates the call, picks the model and provider, holds credits
-  → providers/deepseek/chat/DeepSeekProvider.ts
-        DeepSeek's catalog, endpoint, and request differences
-    → protocols/openaiCompatible/OpenAICompatProvider.ts
-          the OpenAI-compatible request, response, and stream handling
-```
-
-A provider whose vendor has its own API, such as `ClaudeProvider` or `ElevenLabsTTSProvider`, implements the interface's contract directly and uses no protocol.
-
-## Import rules
-
-- `shared/` imports nothing from `interfaces/`, `providers/`, or `protocols/`.
-- Nothing in `services/`, `stores/`, or `clients/` imports from `drivers/ai/`. Code that a service and a driver both need goes in `src/backend/util/`.
-- `providers/` and `protocols/` import an interface's `types.ts` and helpers. They never import a driver class. Their tests can, to drive a provider through the real driver.
-- Only an interface's driver file imports providers, to register them. The interface's helpers don't.
-- An interface doesn't import another interface. When a second interface needs a helper, move the helper to `shared/`, or to `providers/<vendor>/` when it belongs to one vendor.
-- A vendor folder imports another vendor's folder only when it serves that vendor's models. `providers/azure/` reads the OpenAI and xAI catalogs for that reason.
-
-## Where a file goes
-
-| The code is | It goes in |
-| --- | --- |
-| Input validation, gates, routing, credit holds, or anything else every provider of the interface gets | `interfaces/<interface>/` |
-| A request or response contract that providers implement | `interfaces/<interface>/types.ts` |
-| A vendor's endpoint, request shape, catalog, prices, or quirks | `providers/<vendor>/<interface>/` |
-| A vendor's auth, REST plumbing, or constants that two of its interfaces use | `providers/<vendor>/` |
-| Behavior of a wire protocol that several vendors speak | `protocols/<protocol>/` |
-| A helper that two or more interfaces use and that belongs to no vendor | `shared/` |
-| A helper that non-AI drivers or controllers also use | `src/backend/drivers/util/` |
-| AI code that a service also uses | `src/backend/util/`, in a file named `ai<Something>.ts` |
-
-Keep a helper next to its only consumer. Move it up when a second consumer appears, not before.
-
-When one Puter option becomes a different request shape per vendor, the interface reads the option and each dialect maps it. The chat `compaction` option is read in `interfaces/chat/utils/compaction.js`, mapped for OpenAI by `toOpenAiContextManagement` in `protocols/openaiCompatible/openaiParams.ts`, and mapped for Anthropic by `toAnthropicContextManagement` in `providers/claude/chat/contextManagement.ts`. Tools work the same way: `normalize_tools_object` in the interface, then `toolsToWire` for OpenAI and `claudeToolPolicy` for Anthropic.
-
-Tests sit next to the code they test. Fixtures go in a `fixtures/` folder next to the test that reads them.
-
-## Adding a provider
-
-1. Create `providers/<vendor>/<interface>/`. Use the vendor's existing folder if it has one, so all of a vendor's interfaces stay together.
-2. Implement the interface's contract from `interfaces/<interface>/types.ts`:
-
-    | Interface | Contract | Base class |
-    | --- | --- | --- |
-    | chat | `IChatProvider` | `OpenAICompatProvider` for an OpenAI-compatible vendor |
-    | image | `IImageProvider` | none |
-    | video | `IVideoProvider` | `VideoProvider` |
-    | textToSpeech | `ITTSProvider` | none |
-    | speechToText | `ISpeechToTextProvider` | `SpeechToTextProvider` |
-    | ocr | `IOcrProvider` | none |
-
-    Speech to speech has one provider, so `VoiceChangerDriver` uses `ElevenLabsSpeechToSpeechProvider` directly. Add a contract to its `types.ts` when a second provider needs one.
-
-3. Put the model catalog and prices in the same folder, as `models.ts` or `costs.ts`. A provider that loads its catalog from the vendor wraps the fetch in `cachedRemoteCatalog` from `shared/`.
-4. Register the provider in the interface's driver: in `#registerProviders()`, or in `onServerStart()` for OCR and speech to speech. A chat provider built from an API key and an optional base URL is one row in `KEYED_PROVIDERS` instead. Text to speech and speech to text also list the provider id and its aliases in `providerAliases.ts`.
-5. Read credentials from `config.providers[<key>]`. The key is part of the self-hosting config contract, so reuse the vendor's existing key when it has one.
-6. Add tests next to the provider. Mock the vendor SDK or `fetch` at the network boundary and drive the provider through the real driver where you can. A live test is a `*.integration.test.ts` file that skips itself, with `skipUnlessEnv` from [testEnv.ts](../src/backend/testEnv.ts), unless its `PUTER_TEST_AI_*` variable is set. Helpers for provider tests are in [shared/integrationTestUtil.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/shared/integrationTestUtil.ts).
-7. For a chat provider, add its static catalog to `CATALOGS` in [modelCatalogs.test.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/chat/modelCatalogs.test.ts) and the provider to [providerConsistency.test.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/chat/providerConsistency.test.ts). The catalog test fails when a `providers/*/chat/` file with "model" in its name exports a catalog that isn't listed.
-8. Add the provider's config key to the `providers` config of the interface's [fuzz suite](#fuzz-tests), and its id to the list of providers the suite expects.
-9. Update the published docs for the models and limits the provider adds, following [contributing-apis.md](contributing-apis.md).
-
-### OpenAI-compatible vendors
-
-A vendor that speaks the OpenAI Chat Completions protocol extends `OpenAICompatProvider` and overrides only what differs. It still gets its own `providers/<vendor>/chat/` folder.
-
-Vendors share one constants-only folder only when at least six of them differ in nothing but base URL and model catalog. Each then becomes one data file under `providers/openaiCompatible/providers/`, read by a single implementation. No vendor qualifies today, because every subclass overrides request, catalog, or billing behavior.
-
-## Fuzz tests
-
-Two seeded suites send malformed input through the real drivers and providers. They run with the rest of the backend tests.
-
-| Suite | Covers |
-| --- | --- |
-| [interfaces/chat/ChatCompletionDriver.fuzz.test.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/chat/ChatCompletionDriver.fuzz.test.ts) | Chat requests with a few values changed, and valid requests against wrong statuses, bodies of the wrong shape, and broken event streams. |
-| [interfaces/mediaDrivers.fuzz.test.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/mediaDrivers.fuzz.test.ts) | Image, video, speech and OCR requests with a few values changed. Every vendor refuses the request. |
-
-What the suites assert:
-
-- A malformed request never fails with an error that has no status, which `/drivers/call` would report as an unclassified 500.
-- For chat, with the vendors answering, a malformed request also never fails with a 5xx and never marks a route unhealthy.
-- When the upstream misbehaves, chat ends with an answer or an `HttpError`. A stream only has to end: the error line a stream carries isn't checked, so a malformed event can still end one with a 500.
-- Requests reach the vendors, and with the vendors answering some chat requests are answered, so a suite that stops exercising the providers fails.
-
-The vendors are played at the HTTP boundary by `upstream` in [shared/fuzzTestUtil.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/shared/fuzzTestUtil.ts), which stands in for global `fetch`, undici `fetch` and axios, and makes `https.request` throw so an SDK with its own client fails the suite. The vendors' SDKs run, except Groq's, which is swapped for the OpenAI SDK, and the AWS clients, whose `send` is stubbed. The media suite calls the drivers as a user with unlimited metering, so a request gets past file input and the credit hold to the vendor. A provider that loads its catalog from the vendor registers no models there, so the suites skip it.
-
-A failure lists each distinct finding with its case number and input. Each case is generated from the seed and its own number, so the same case fails again on the next run. Routes are picked by rendezvous hashing: a model added to a catalog takes only the cases it wins, and every other case keeps its route. To search further, raise the case count:
-
-```sh
-PUTER_FUZZ_CASES=100000 npx vitest run --config src/backend/vitest.config.ts src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/chat/ChatCompletionDriver.fuzz.test.ts
-```
-
-When a suite finds a crash, validate the value where the request enters, in the driver or in `normalize_single_message`, so every provider is covered. Reject only what crashed: a value a provider ignored or refused before must still reach it. An option a driver reads as text, a number or a flag goes in the driver's `SCALAR_OPTIONS`, and `assertScalarOptions` from `shared/scalarOptions.ts` answers 400 for a value there that can't be converted to text. Add a unit test for the case next to the fix.
-
-## Adding an interface
-
-1. Create `interfaces/<interface>/` with the driver class and a `types.ts` for the contracts providers implement.
-2. Register the driver in [src/backend/drivers/index.ts](../src/backend/drivers/index.ts).
-3. Use `AI_RATE_LIMIT` and `AI_CONCURRENT` from `shared/aiLimits.ts`, and publish any new limit in [rate-limits-and-quotas.md](../src/docs/src/rate-limits-and-quotas.md).
-4. Meter through `withAiCostFactor` from `src/backend/util/aiCostFactor.ts`, and route between providers with `ProviderRegistry` from `shared/providerRegistry.ts`.
-5. List the options the providers read as text, a number or a flag in a `SCALAR_OPTIONS` array, and call `assertScalarOptions` from `shared/scalarOptions.ts` first in each method. Add the driver to [mediaDrivers.fuzz.test.ts](../src/backend/drivers/ai/interfaces/mediaDrivers.fuzz.test.ts).
-6. Follow [contributing-apis.md](contributing-apis.md) for the puter.js method, types, docs, and tests.

-## Sign-in and file pickers
-
-`GET /embed/sign-in`, `/embed/show-open-file-picker`, `/embed/show-save-file-picker`
-and `/embed/show-directory-picker` serve the same GUI popups as `/action/<action>`
-for a first-party page, with the same framing rules, query redirect, and
-`no-store` as `/embed/apps`. Any other spelling of the path (another case, a
-trailing slash) redirects to it, since the shell boots the desktop for it. They render the normal GUI shell, which names the
-framing page (read from the referrer, pinned with `frame-ancestors`) as
-`gui_params.embed_host_origin`. The GUI then runs the popup boot unchanged, with
-the framing page as `window.opener`, and `window.close()` asks the page to
-remove the frame (`src/gui/src/helpers/popupFrame.js`). Without a framing page
-to answer (opened top-level, or framed by a refused page) it does nothing. The
-popup's parameters come from the fragment instead of the query: `msg_id`,
-`options` and `request_auth`, plus `user` for a picker.
-
-The frame posts `{ msg: 'puterPopupFrame', state }` to its parent: `loading` as
-soon as the shell boots, `ready` once it shows a window or dialog, `unavailable`
-when the page has to use the popup, `provider` when the user picks a sign-in
-provider (below), and `closed` where a popup would close. Its
-answers (`puter.token`, `fileOpenPicked`, `directoryPicked`, `fileSaved`, the
-cancel messages, `sendMeFileData`) are the popup's.
-
-puter.js uses them on a page one label under the GUI origin, other than the
-subdomains the server refuses, unless the page is cross-origin isolated or in a
-frame of another site (which `frame-ancestors` refuses too).
-`showPopupFrame` in `src/puter-js/src/lib/guiEmbed.js` shows the frame in a box
-the size of the popup window, over a scrim, hidden until `ready` and behind the
-loading spinner after 200ms. Escape closes it, on the page or in the frame. One shows per popup, as each
-popup has its own window name: a second picker request of the same kind
-replaces the one showing, and a `signIn()` call made while a framed sign-in is
-open settles with it. On
-screens up to 600px wide the box fills the screen. A frame that is refused,
-never answers, or reports `unavailable` falls back to the popup, opened through
-a consent dialog when the click that asked for it has expired. A reload or navigation the frame
-starts itself (logging out, a sign-out in another tab) names the frame as its
-referrer, so the server refuses it; the page then shows its spinner and opens
-the frame again, once per `ready`.
-
-- **Sign-in** (`puter.auth.signIn()`) has no host-user binding: it is how the
-  page gets a user. The box has a close button, which rejects with
-  `auth_window_closed` as closing the popup does. Providers refuse to be
-  framed, so choosing one posts `{ state: 'provider', url }` with the
-  provider's start URL for this sign-in's `msg_id`, then `unavailable`. The
-  page opens the popup straight at that URL, once it checks the URL is the
-  GUI's `/auth/oidc/<provider>/start` for this `msg_id`, and the provider
-  returns it as this sign-in's popup. `attempt_temp_user_creation` keeps the popup, since
-  only the popup creates a temporary account.
-- **Pickers** frame only for a signed-in page. The GUI reports `unavailable`
-  unless its session belongs to the user named in `user`, and the page then uses
-  the popup, which can sign in and switch accounts. The token the GUI sends
-  before a picker's answer isn't adopted, since it is for the page's own user.
-  Dismissing the loading scrim settles the picker as cancelled.
-
-## Upgrade
-
-`GET /embed/upgrade` is the deployment's upgrade dialog for a first-party page,
-served like the popups above: the GUI shell with the same framing rules, query
-redirect, exact-path redirect and `no-store`, naming the framing page as
-`gui_params.embed_host_origin`. It runs only when framed by an allowed page.
-
-puter.js frames it on a signed-in first-party page (the same pages as the
-pickers) for `puter.ui.requestUpgrade(details)`, and for the Upgrade button of
-the usage limit dialog a refused call shows there. Elsewhere both keep their
-behavior: inside an app `requestUpgrade()` asks the desktop, and on any other
-page the usage limit dialog opens the dashboard's upgrade page in a new tab.
-
-The frame covers the page with no box or close button, and the GUI page is
-transparent (`html.popup-frame-transparent`) so the dialog's own scrim covers
-the host. The frame allows `payment` as well as `otp-credentials`. Escape on the
-page is left to the dialog, since one there shouldn't drop a payment in
-progress. Its fragment names `user` (the page's signed-in user) and, when the
-refusal gave them, `reason` (`funds`, `subscription` or `storage`) and `method`.
-
-The GUI reports `unavailable` unless its session belongs to `user`, the account
-has no verification or password change waiting (which the frame couldn't be
-closed from), and the deployment defines `window.UIUpgradeAccount` with
-`UIUpgradeAccount.embeddable === true`. Otherwise it runs:
-
-```js
-new UIUpgradeAccount({ attribution: { appUid, reason, method }, onClose }).open_as_window();
-```
-
-`appUid` is the app the framing page's origin resolves to, never one the
-fragment names. `open_as_window()` resolves once the dialog shows, and the GUI
-then posts `ready`. While the page still hides the frame, which Chromium and
-WebKit lay out at 0x0, the GUI posts `ready` first and opens the dialog once
-the frame has a viewport, so a window it opens doesn't center on 0x0.
-`onClose({ upgraded })` must run exactly once, when the
-dialog closes or when it declines to open for the account; the GUI then posts
-`{ msg: 'puterPopupFrame', state: 'closed', upgraded }` and the page removes
-the frame. If `open_as_window()` rejects, the GUI posts `unavailable` instead. `requestUpgrade()` resolves `{ upgraded }`. A call made while the
-frame shows settles with it rather than replacing it, and a call refused while
-it shows still rejects but opens no usage limit dialog over it.
-
-When the frame can't show the upgrade (refused, never ready, `unavailable`, or
-no user to name), puter.js opens the dashboard's upgrade page in a new tab with
-what was refused, through a consent dialog when the click has expired or the
-tab is blocked, and `requestUpgrade()` resolves `{ upgraded: false }`.
-
-## Top-up
-
-`GET /embed/top-up` is the deployment's top-up dialog, where a user with a plan
-buys add-on credit, served and framed like the upgrade: a transparent GUI page
-covering the host with no box or close button, allowing `payment` and
-`otp-credentials`, with Escape left to the dialog. Its fragment names `user`.
-
-puter.js frames it for the **Add credits** item of `<puter-user-menu>`, which
-shows only when whoami reports `subscribed: true` and no `team` paying for the
-account. On a page that can't frame the GUI, the item opens the dashboard with
-`?topup=` in a new tab instead.
-
-The GUI reports `unavailable` unless its session belongs to `user`, the account
-has no verification or password change waiting, and the deployment defines
-`window.UITopUp` with `UITopUp.embeddable === true`. Otherwise it runs:
-
-```js
-new UITopUp({ onClose }).open();
-```
-
-`open()` resolves once the dialog has loaded the account and shows what it can
-buy, and `onClose({ toppedUp })` must run exactly once, when the dialog closes
-or when it declines to open for the account. The GUI then posts `{ msg: 'puterPopupFrame', state: 'closed', toppedUp }`
-and the page removes the frame. When the frame can't show the top-up, puter.js
-opens the dashboard's top-up in a new tab, as it does the upgrade.
-
-While the top-up shows, a call refused for funds still rejects but opens no
-usage limit dialog over it, and `requestUpgrade()` frames nothing over it: it
-resolves `{ upgraded: false }` once the top-up closes.
-
-## Email confirmation
-
-`GET /embed/request-email-confirmation` walks a first-party page's user through
-confirming their email, served like the upgrade: the GUI shell with the same
-framing rules, redirects and `no-store`, run only when framed by an allowed
-page. puter.js frames it on a signed-in first-party page for
-`puter.ui.requestEmailConfirmation()`. Inside an app the desktop shows the same
-windows over the app instead.
-
-Like the upgrade, the frame covers the page with no box or close button, over a
-transparent GUI page, and its fragment names `user`. Escape closes it, on the
-page or on the save-account or code window. On a window, Escape closes that
-window as its close button does, so a code already sent still answers. The GUI
-reports `unavailable` unless its session belongs to `user` and the account has
-no phone, card or password check waiting.
-An email check is fine: the boot skips its own email gate for this action, so
-the user gets one code window they can close.
-
-The GUI then runs `ensureConfirmedEmail` (`src/gui/src/helpers/ensureConfirmedEmail.js`),
-which the desktop's handler uses too: a temporary account gets the save-account
-window first, then an unconfirmed email gets the code window, each at most
-once. When the page's whoami already reads the email as confirmed,
-`requestEmailConfirmation()` resolves `{ response: true }` without framing
-anything, and a confirmation in the frame marks that whoami confirmed for the
-calls after it. An email the GUI reads as confirmed shows nothing. Before
-opening a window the GUI waits for the frame to have a viewport, as the upgrade
-does. It then posts
-`{ msg: 'puterPopupFrame', state: 'closed', confirmed }`, and
-`requestEmailConfirmation()` resolves `{ response: confirmed }`, the field an
-app reads from the desktop's answer. A call made while the frame shows settles
-with it. A frame that is refused, never ready, or `unavailable` resolves
-`{ response: false }`, since there's no popup to fall back to.
-
-## Custom domains
-
-`GET /embed/attach-custom-domain` is the custom domain dialog of
-`puter.hosting.attach()`, the popup at `/action/attach-custom-domain`, served
-like the upgrade: the GUI shell with the same framing rules, redirects and
-`no-store`, run only when framed by an allowed page. puter.js frames it on a
-signed-in first-party page (the same pages as the pickers).
-
-The frame covers the page with no box or close button, over a transparent GUI
-page, so the dialog floats over the host with its own scrim as it does on the
-desktop. The frame allows `clipboard-write`, for the dialog's copy buttons, as
-well as `otp-credentials`. Escape on the page is left to the dialog, which
-doesn't close while a request is in flight. Its fragment names `user` (the
-page's signed-in user), `subdomain` (the site to attach a domain to) and
-`msg_id`.
-
-The GUI reports `unavailable` unless its session belongs to `user` and the
-account has no verification or password change waiting. It then runs the
-popup's action unchanged, with the framing page as the requester the dialog
-names: it posts `ready` once the dialog is on the page, answers
-`{ msg: 'customDomainAttached', domain, original_msg_id }` once the dialog has
-closed and its exit has played, and then posts `closed`. `domain` is the domain the user chose, or
-null. `attach()` resolves it. A frame that closes without an answer, or a
-loading scrim the user dismisses, resolves null.
-
-A call made while the frame shows resolves null without replacing it, as a
-second call does on the desktop. A frame that is refused, never ready, or
-`unavailable` falls back to the popup, which can sign in, through a consent
-dialog when the click has expired.

-- `enable()` may ask for notification permission, so core calls it from a click: Turn on in the Notifications tab, Allow on a permission prompt that includes `notifications:push` while this browser is off, and the "Turn on notifications" button of the `/action/enable-push` popup and the matching desktop dialog (`UIEnablePushDialog`). Core also calls it without a click, from `helpers/pushSync.js`, when `Notification.permission` is already `granted`, `status()` reports the browser as not registered, the user has not turned push off in this browser, and an app may push to Puter's devices (`puterDevices` in `GET /push/apps`); the browser does not prompt then. That call passes `{ background: true }`: a browser the user removed in Puter stays removed, and the built-in client rejects with code `push_device_removed`, after which core records the browser as turned off. Before a background call the built-in client asks `POST /push/web/subscriptions/status` about every earlier endpoint it knows: the marker's `oldEndpoint` and the last endpoint the server answered `active` for (`puter.push.last-endpoint:<user uuid>` in `localStorage`). On a 429 it registers nothing and rejects with `too_many_requests`, which the sync reports as `later`, keeping the marker for the next run. When any answer is `removed`, it ends the current subscription in the browser, clears the marker and rejects with `push_device_removed`, so a subscription change or a dropped subscription never brings back a browser removed from another device. A click renews it as before. For a click the built-in client runs `puter.notifications.enable()`, which subscribes with the `/sw.js` registration and registers the browser through the Web Push flow above (`platform: 'webpush'`); in the background it runs the same registration without replacing a removed subscription or opening Puter's sign-in. It then resolves the `uid` of this browser's `webpush` device from `listDevices()` and clears the subscription-changed marker. It rejects when permission is refused or the browser wasn't registered.
+- `enable()` may ask for notification permission, so core calls it from a click: Turn on in the Notifications tab, Allow on a permission prompt that includes `notifications:push` while this browser is off, and the "Turn on notifications" button of the `/action/enable-push` popup and the matching desktop dialog (`UIEnablePushDialog`). Core also calls it without a click, from `helpers/pushSync.js`, when `Notification.permission` is already `granted`, `status()` reports the browser as not registered, the user has not turned push off in this browser, and an app holds `notifications:push`; the browser does not prompt then. The built-in client runs `puter.notifications.enable()`, which subscribes with the `/sw.js` registration and registers the browser through the Web Push flow above (`platform: 'webpush'`). It then resolves the `uid` of this browser's `webpush` device from `listDevices()`. It rejects when permission is refused or the browser wasn't registered.
 - `disable()` runs `puter.notifications.disable()`, which sends `DELETE /push/web/subscriptions { endpoint }` and ends the browser's subscription. The tab calls it for Turn off, and for Remove on the device marked as this browser. Remove on any other device is `DELETE /push/devices/:uid`.
-- `status()` reports the state without prompting. `permission` is `Notification.permission`. `registered` is true when this browser has a device registered for the signed-in user and `POST /push/web/subscriptions/status` answers `active` for the current subscription's endpoint, and `deviceUid` is that device's `uid`. A server that can't answer leaves the device match alone, and so does an `unknown` for an endpoint `enable()` registered in this page in the last 5 minutes, since that check can trail a registration. While the subscription-changed marker is set, `registered` is false. With `{ cached: true }` a client may answer with the last registered state it read in this page. Core passes it for the silent registration on app launch and for an app's `puter.notifications.status()`; the Notifications tab and the push dialogs read fresh. The built-in client keeps that state in memory for the same user and subscription for up to 5 minutes, from `enable()` or once the server answered `active` for the endpoint, and answers from it without either request. Reads of the same user and endpoint share one real check while it is in flight. It drops it on `disable()`, a failed `enable()`, an unregistered answer, a set subscription-changed marker, and the worker's `puter-push-subscription-changed` message, so a new page load always asks the server. Whether the calling app may push is checked on every call, against a `GET /push/apps` answer the page reuses for 30 seconds and drops on `enable()`, `disable()`, a grant, a revoke and a user change. When it can't be read, or leaves the app out, the grant alone counts.
+- `status()` reports the state without prompting. `permission` is `Notification.permission`. `registered` is true when this browser has a device registered for the signed-in user, and `deviceUid` is that device's `uid`.
 
 After `enable()` resolves, the tab calls `POST /push/devices/:uid/test` and asks the user whether a notification showed up.
 
 The tab also reads `GET /push/apps` and `GET`/`POST /push/preferences`.
 
-Core keeps its own record of a browser the user turned off, `puter.push.browser-off:<user uuid>` in `localStorage`, written by Turn off, by Remove on this browser's device, and by a silent registration the server refuses with `push_device_removed`, and cleared when `enable()` resolves. The silent registration above skips a browser with that record, so a device removed here or from another device stays removed until the user turns it on from a click, while a new sign-in in a browser that already allows notifications registers again.

 To require email confirmation before login, also set `"strict_email_verification_required": true`.
 
-Account and notification mail is sent on a named stream: `auth` (password, address and 2FA changes), `signup` (address confirmation; a `puter.signup.validate` listener may name another: lowercase letters, digits, `:`, `_` and `-`, up to 64 characters, starting with a letter or digit) and `notify` (share, app feedback and contact form mail). Add `"streams"` inside `"email"` to configure one, for instance to let your mail provider route or report each kind of mail separately:
-
-```json
-"streams": {
-    "notify": {
-        "from": "\"Puter\" <[email protected]>",
-        "headers": { "X-Example-Stream": "notify" },
-        "tagsHeader": "X-Example-Tags"
-    }
-}
-```
-
-`headers` are added to every message on the stream, `from` replaces the default sender, and `tagsHeader` names the header that carries a message's tags as `name=value` pairs joined by `, `. A stream that is not listed adds nothing: the message goes out with the default from address and the caller's headers. `streams` is never handed to the transport.
-
 To read the mail yourself instead of sending it, point the transport at a local SMTP sink — [MailHog](https://github.com/mailhog/MailHog) catches everything and serves it at `http://localhost:8025`. Publish both ports; a container that only exposes them is unreachable from the host:
