Workspace drawer: files and changes

Run control-openhands browser attr 'testid=right-panel-toggle' aria-pressed (false) and control-openhands browser tooltip 'testid=right-panel-toggle' (Show panel). Then run control-openhands browser click 'testid=right-panel-toggle', followed by control-openhands browser attr 'testid=right-panel-toggle' aria-label and control-openhands browser visible 'testid=files-tab'. The label is Hide panel, aria-pressed is true, and Files is visible with the workspace path and tree (browser screenshot --feature F08.panel-toggle --name drawer-open-files).

Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-tab-commits' and control-openhands browser wait 'testid=commit-list' --state visible --timeout 10000 (the first open shows Loading changes... for a moment, so an immediate browser visible can read false). Click testid=conversation-tab-commits again. right-panel-toggle aria-pressed becomes false and control-openhands browser visible 'testid=tabs-pane-header' is false. Reopen with right-panel-toggle.

With Commits selected, run control-openhands browser reload, then control-openhands browser attr 'testid=right-panel-toggle' aria-pressed (false; the drawer is closed). Click testid=right-panel-toggle; control-openhands browser visible 'testid=commit-list' is true.

Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=tabs-pane-header >> testid=ellipsis-button' and control-openhands browser testids --filter conversation-tabs-menu; there is one open row and one pin row per tab. Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-tabs-menu-open-usage'; then control-openhands browser count 'testid=conversation-tabs-menu-open-usage' is 0 (menu closed) and the bar's active label is Usage. Reopen the menu and run control-openhands browser mouse-click 560 600 (over the chat); the menu count is 0.

With Usage active, open the menu and run control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-tabs-menu-pin-usage', then control-openhands browser attr 'testid=conversation-tabs-menu-pin-usage' aria-label (Pin tab to bar; aria-pressed is false). Close the menu with browser mouse-click 560 600, then run control-openhands browser count 'testid=tabs-pane-header >> testid=conversation-tab-usage'. The count is 0 and Planner is now active. Run control-openhands browser reload and reopen the drawer; the count is still 0. To restore, open the menu, click testid=conversation-tabs-menu-pin-usage (label Unpin tab from bar), then control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-tabs-menu-open-files'. The usage tab count is 1 again.

The divider has no test id; its grip is the first .cursor-ew-resize on the page (the second is the Files tree divider). With the drawer open, control-openhands browser bbox 'testid=chat-interface' and control-openhands browser bbox 'testid=tabs-pane-header' are about 570 px wide each and control-openhands browser eval "localStorage.getItem('desktop-layout-panel-width')" is "50". Run control-openhands browser drag '.cursor-ew-resize >> nth=0' --by 200,0: the chat is 770 px, the drawer about 369 px and the key about 67.5. --by 900,0 clamps at "80", --by -1200,0 at "30" (chat 342 px), and after browser reload plus the toggle the chat is still 342 px. Restore with control-openhands browser drag '.cursor-ew-resize >> nth=0' --by 228,0 (chat 570 px, key "50").

Blocked in a runtime without a running VS Code server: control-openhands browser count 'testid=drawer-vscode-link' is 0 (hidden, as designed), and control-openhands api GET /api/vscode/status explains why (enabled: false, or running: false when the agent-server has no editor binary, as in these stacks; see F26 Gotchas). It needs a runtime with enable_vscode and a running editor, on an origin that serves /vscode/.

Blocked locally: archived status comes from a Cloud sandbox (sandbox_status). On such a conversation, browser enabled 'testid=right-panel-toggle' should be false and browser tooltip 'testid=right-panel-toggle' should read Unavailable for Archives.

Run control-openhands browser attr 'testid=files-tab-workspace-path-value' title (ends in /workspace/qa-repo). Click testid=files-tab-workspace-path >> testid=copy-to-clipboard. Immediately afterwards, control-openhands browser attr 'testid=files-tab-workspace-path >> testid=copy-to-clipboard' aria-label is Copied to clipboard and browser enabled on the same button is false. control-openhands browser clipboard returns the full path. About 3 s later the label is Copy to clipboard again.

Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=files-tab-refresh' first (see Gotchas: files the agent made with bash are missing until a refresh). Then control-openhands browser attr 'testid=file-tree-dir-src' aria-expanded (false), control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-tree-dir-src' (now true) and control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-tree-file-src/calc.py'. control-openhands browser text 'testid=file-content-viewer-highlighted' shows the 4 lines def add…return a - b, and testid=file-quick-row-item-src/calc.py exists.

Run control-openhands browser bbox 'testid=files-tab-tree' (width 224). Then control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-quick-row-tree-toggle', control-openhands browser attr 'testid=file-quick-row-tree-toggle' aria-label (Show file tree) and control-openhands browser count 'testid=files-tab-tree' (0). Reload and reopen the drawer: the count is still 0. Click the toggle again to restore (count 1).

Run control-openhands browser drag 'testid=files-tab-tree-resize-handle >> .cursor-ew-resize' --by 100,0; browser bbox 'testid=files-tab-tree' is 324 wide and control-openhands browser eval "localStorage.getItem('files-tab-tree-width')" is "324". --by 500,0 clamps at 480, --by -600,0 at 160, and the width survives browser reload plus the toggle. Restore with --by 64,0 (224).

With the drawer open on Files (open it with right-panel-toggle and click testid=conversation-tab-files only if Files is not already the active tab: clicking the active tab closes the drawer), run control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-discovery-settings' and control-openhands browser snapshot 'role=dialog[name="File discovery"]': Applies to this workspace on this backend, including other conversations using it., textbox Excluded directories (.git, node_modules, .venv, … target), spinbutton Maximum files (0 for unlimited) 2000, checkbox Include symbolic links to files, buttons Restore defaults, Cancel, Save. With D='role=dialog[name="File discovery"]': control-openhands browser fill "$D >> role=spinbutton" '-1' makes control-openhands browser enabled "$D >> role=button[name=\"Save\"]" false; 2000 makes it true. Run control-openhands browser fill "$D >> role=textbox" "$(printf '.git\nnode_modules\nsrc')" and click Save: the dialog closes, control-openhands api GET /api/settings holds workspace_file_discovery keyed by the workspace path with excludedPatterns .git, node_modules, src, and after control-openhands browser click 'testid=files-tab-refresh' control-openhands browser count 'testid=file-tree-dir-src' is 0, also after browser reload and reopening the drawer (browser screenshot --feature F08.files-discovery-settings --name dialog before saving). Restore: reopen the dialog, click Restore defaults (the textbox returns to the default list; the dialog stays open), then Save; after Refresh the file-tree-dir-src count is 1. control-openhands browser press Escape closes the dialog without saving. At phone width the dialog fits the viewport: on the 390 px /panel page (control-openhands browser viewport phone, browser goto /conversations/<id>/panel, browser click 'testid=conversation-tab-files', then file-discovery-settings) control-openhands browser bbox 'testid=file-discovery-settings-modal' is about 351 px wide at x about 20 with insideViewport true (520 px at desktop), and browser screenshot --feature F08.files-discovery-settings --name phone-fits shows the title, the textbox and Restore defaults, Cancel, Save whole. Measure the file-discovery-settings-modal test id: role=dialog is the full-screen backdrop. Focus starts in the dialog (the Excluded directories textbox) and Tab cycles its fields and buttons without leaving it.

Click testid=file-tree-file-qa-notes.md; testid=file-content-viewer-markdown exists. Click testid=file-tree-file-qa-page.html, then run control-openhands browser attr 'testid=file-content-viewer-iframe' sandbox (allow-same-origin) and control-openhands browser eval "document.querySelector('[data-testid=file-content-viewer-iframe]').contentDocument.body.innerText" (QA page). Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=files-tab-content-mode-toggle-option-plain'; control-openhands browser text 'testid=files-tab-content >> testid=file-content-viewer-highlighted' reads 1<h1>QA page</h1>. After browser reload and reopening, control-openhands browser attr 'testid=files-tab-content-mode-toggle-option-plain' aria-checked is true. Switch back with testid=files-tab-content-mode-toggle-option-rich.

With qa-page.html selected, run control-openhands browser click 'testid=files-tab-open-in-new-window' and control-openhands browser tabs. Page 1's URL is /api/conversations/<id>/workspace/qa-page.html?v=<n>. Run control-openhands browser tab 1, control-openhands browser text 'body' (QA page) and control-openhands browser close-tab 1.

With several files opened, run control-openhands browser attr 'testid=file-quick-row-item-qa-page.html' title (the path). Select qa-notes.md with control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-quick-row-item-qa-notes.md', then close it with control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-quick-row-close-qa-notes.md'. control-openhands browser eval "[...document.querySelectorAll('[data-testid^=file-quick-row-item-]')].filter(e=>e.getAttribute('aria-selected')==='true').map(e=>e.dataset.testid)" names the neighbour. Run browser reload, reopen the drawer and control-openhands browser text 'testid=file-quick-row': the same files remain. Opening a different conversation (see Commits empty state) shows no quick-row items: browser text 'testid=file-quick-row' is empty. browser testids omits strip tabs scrolled out of view; count them with browser eval "[...document.querySelectorAll('[data-testid^=file-quick-row-item-]')].length".

Close every open file with its file-quick-row-close-<path> button. control-openhands browser text 'testid=files-tab-content' reads Select a file to view its contents, and control-openhands browser count 'testid=files-tab-content-mode-toggle' is 0.

Keep Files open with qa-notes.md selected in Rich mode. Write qa-f08-2.txt with: In the current workspace directory run exactly this one bash command and then reply only "done": printf 'BIN\000\001' > qa-nul.bin && printf 'PK\003\004\000\000' > qa-real.docx && python3 -c "import base64;open('qa-dot.png','wb').write(base64.b64decode('iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAYAAAAfFcSJAAAADUlEQVR42mP8z8BQDwAEhQGAhKmMIQAAAABJRU5ErkJggg=='))" && printf '\n- edited by agent\n' >> qa-notes.md && git add qa-notes.md && git -c user.name=QA-Agent -c user.email=qa@example.invalid commit -qm 'QA agent commit' && git log --oneline. Run control-openhands conversation start --stay --prompt "$(cat qa-f08-2.txt)" --wait --timeout 240, then control-openhands browser testids 'testid=files-tab-tree' and control-openhands browser text 'testid=file-content-viewer-markdown'. Expected: qa-nul.bin, qa-real.docx and qa-dot.png are listed, and the preview ends with edited by agent. Known failure (reproduced 2026-10-06): neither changes until Refresh, because the auto-refresh hook skips the file queries for shell commands on purpose (see Gotchas). Repro candidate, not yet filed; a report would ask to revisit that choice. Click testid=files-tab-refresh once: the list gains the three files and the open preview ends with edited by agent.

After a refresh, click testid=file-tree-file-qa-nul.bin (testid=file-content-viewer-binary-fallback, text Binary file – preview not available). Then click testid=file-tree-file-qa-real.docx (testid=file-content-viewer-unsupported-document, Preview isn't available for Word files.). Then click testid=file-tree-file-qa-dot.png and run control-openhands browser eval "document.querySelector('[data-testid=file-content-viewer-image] img').naturalWidth" (1). In Plain mode the PNG shows the binary fallback. qa-deck.pptx and qa-blob.bin from the first prompt have no NUL byte and render as text (see Gotchas).

Keep Files open with testid=file-tree-file-qa-blob.bin selected. Run control-openhands conversation start --stay --prompt 'Do two steps, then reply only "done". Step 1: run the bash command: rm qa-blob.bin. Step 2: use your file editor tool (not bash) to create the file qa-editor.txt in the current workspace directory with the single line: created by file editor' --wait --timeout 240. Without clicking Refresh, control-openhands browser count 'testid=file-tree-file-qa-editor.txt' is 1 and browser count 'testid=file-tree-file-qa-blob.bin' is 0 (the editor observation refetches the whole list). qa-blob.bin stays in the open-file strip, and the same observation re-reads the open file: control-openhands browser text 'testid=file-content-viewer-error' reads Failed to read qa-blob.bin: 404 and control-openhands browser network --filter qa-blob shows the 404 (browser screenshot --feature F08.files-load-error --name deleted-open-file).

Run control-openhands conversation start --stay --prompt 'Without running any tool, reply with exactly this text and nothing else: See src/calc.py for the code.' --wait --timeout 180. Close the drawer, then run control-openhands browser click 'testid=agent-message >> nth=-1 >> testid=markdown-file-path-link'. right-panel-toggle aria-pressed turns true, testid=files-tab is visible and file-quick-row-item-src/calc.py is the selected tab. The same path in the prompt bubble works too: close the drawer and click 'testid=user-message >> testid=markdown-file-path-link'. Phone: select another file (control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-quick-row-item-qa-notes.md'), run control-openhands browser viewport phone, then the same agent-message click with --expect-url '/panel$': the URL becomes /conversations/<id>/panel, browser visible 'testid=files-tab' is true and control-openhands browser attr 'testid=file-quick-row-item-src/calc.py' aria-selected is true (browser screenshot --feature F08.files-open-from-chat --name phone-after-click). Return with control-openhands browser viewport desktop: the app replaces /panel with /conversations/<id> (control-openhands browser wait-url '/conversations/[^/]+$') and shows the drawer beside the chat.

After the file-editor turn above, close the drawer and expand its tool group and card: control-openhands browser click 'text=2 actions completed', then control-openhands browser click 'role=region[name="Collapse actions"] >> role=button[name="Expand"] >> nth=-1' (the Create qa-editor.txt card). control-openhands browser text 'testid=file-path-chip' is the absolute <run>/workspace/qa-repo/qa-editor.txt. Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=file-path-chip': right-panel-toggle aria-pressed turns true, the selected strip tab is file-quick-row-item-qa-editor.txt (relative) and browser text 'testid=files-tab-content' ends with created by file editor.

Click testid=conversation-tab-commits and run control-openhands browser text 'testid=commit-list'. After the first prompt it reads -, Uncommitted, 6 files, then 4bf8272-style SHA, Initial fixture commit and … ago; after the second prompt QA agent commit appears above it, with author names QA-Agent and QA Fixture shown because there are now two authors. Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=uncommitted-changes-row-toggle' and control-openhands browser text 'testid=uncommitted-changes-row-content' (the changed paths; aria-expanded is true). Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=commit-row >> has-text=Initial fixture commit >> testid=commit-row-toggle'; Uncommitted's aria-expanded turns false, and control-openhands browser text 'testid=commit-row-content' lists README.md, src/calc.py, src/test_calc.py. After the third prompt the Uncommitted count is 8 files.

In the expanded Uncommitted row, run control-openhands browser click 'testid=uncommitted-changes-row-content >> testid=file-diff-viewer-outer >> has-text=src/calc.py >> testid=collapse'. control-openhands browser text 'testid=uncommitted-changes-row-content >> testid=file-diff-viewer-outer >> has-text=src/calc.py >> testid=editor-container' shows the added def sub lines, and view-mode-diff has aria-pressed true. The row's buttons are named: control-openhands browser snapshot 'testid=uncommitted-changes-row-content >> testid=file-diff-viewer-outer >> has-text=src/calc.py' lists button "Old version", button "Diff" [pressed], button "New version" and button "Collapse" (the same collapse button reads Expand while the row is collapsed), so … >> role=button[name="Old version"] works as well as the test id. Click … >> testid=view-mode-old (2 lines), then … >> testid=view-mode-new (4 lines), then view-mode-diff. Run control-openhands browser errors --app-only before and after: each collapse and each diff→old switch adds TextModel got disposed before DiffEditorWidget model got reset (fail, #17567).

In this order qa-notes.md is already committed, so check it in the QA agent commit row: control-openhands browser click 'testid=commit-row >> has-text=QA agent commit >> testid=commit-row-toggle', then with F='testid=commit-row >> has-text=QA agent commit >> testid=file-diff-viewer-outer >> has-text=qa-notes.md' click "$F >> testid=collapse" and "$F >> testid=view-mode-new". control-openhands browser count "$F >> testid=markdown-preview" is 1, rendering <h1>QA notes</h1>, world in bold and the edited by agent list item. (Before the second prompt the same check works under testid=uncommitted-changes-row-content.) Re-expand Uncommitted with uncommitted-changes-row-toggle for the next bullet.

Expand src/test_calc.py in Uncommitted. control-openhands browser text 'testid=uncommitted-changes-row-content >> testid=file-diff-viewer-outer >> has-text=src/test_calc.py >> testid=file-deleted-message' reads This file was deleted. Its previous contents are no longer available for preview.

With the drawer closed, run control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-overview-toggle' and control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-overview-diffs' (its siblings conversation-overview-diffs-additions/-deletions show +N/-N; deleted files are not counted). right-panel-toggle aria-pressed is true, testid=commit-list is visible, uncommitted-changes-row-toggle has aria-expanded true and testid=conversation-overview-panel is hidden. After browser reload and the toggle, Commits is still selected.

Run control-openhands fixture folder, which makes <run>/workspace/qa-folder, a plain folder (no .git) with notes.md; by the time the conversation has run it holds an empty .git (seen live; not created by the prompt), so it ends up a repo with no commits. Run control-openhands browser goto / (the browser is on the qa-repo conversation) and pick it with the workspace picker as in Preconditions (folder-browser-entry-qa-folder). Then run control-openhands conversation start --stay --prompt 'Run exactly this bash command, then reply only "done": rm notes.md && git status --short' --wait --timeout 180. Open the drawer and click testid=conversation-tab-commits; control-openhands browser count 'text="No commits yet"' is 1 (browser screenshot --feature F08.commits-states --name no-commits). On Files, click testid=files-tab-refresh; control-openhands browser text 'testid=files-tab-tree' reads No files in workspace. Loading changes... (testid=commits-tab-status) shows briefly on the first Commits open after a load: on /conversations/<id> with Files selected, browser reload, open the drawer, then control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-tab-commits' --observe 'testid=commits-tab-status' --observe-ms 4000 records Loading changes... for a few ms. Waiting for runtime to start... (agent state init/loading/error) was not reached: service stop agent-server and restart both left No commits yet on screen.

Arrange more than 50 commits in the fixture (read-only for the UI): for i in $(seq 1 50); do git -C "$OH_VERIFY_RUN/workspace/qa-repo" -c user.name=QA-Bulk -c user.email=qa@example.invalid commit -q --allow-empty -m "QA bulk $i"; done. On the qa-repo conversation (control-openhands browser goto /conversations/<id>; Empty states left the qa-folder conversation) run browser reload, open the drawer on Commits and wait for testid=commit-list. control-openhands browser text 'testid=commit-list-cap-notice' reads Showing the latest 50 commits and browser count 'testid=commit-row' is 50. Do this last: it changes the commit list the other bullets read.

Run control-openhands browser viewport phone on /conversations/<id>, then control-openhands browser click 'testid=right-panel-toggle' --expect-url '/panel$'. control-openhands browser bbox 'testid=files-tab' gives insideViewport true and pageHorizontalOverflow false, with Commits diffs usable at 390 px (browser screenshot --feature F08.phone-panel-page --name panel). control-openhands browser attr 'testid=conversation-mobile-panel-back' aria-label is Back. Run control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-mobile-panel-back' --expect-url '/conversations/[^/]+$'; the chat is visible. Return with control-openhands browser viewport desktop.

At desktop run control-openhands browser goto /conversations/<id>/panel. The app replaces the URL with /conversations/<id> (the goto result already shows it; control-openhands browser url confirms), control-openhands browser count 'testid=conversation-mobile-panel-back' is 0, browser visible 'testid=chat-interface' is true and right-panel-toggle aria-pressed is true (the drawer opens beside the chat; browser screenshot --feature F08.panel-direct-url --name desktop-redirect). Then run control-openhands browser viewport phone and the same goto: the URL keeps /panel, the conversation-mobile-panel-back count is 1 and chat-interface is not visible. control-openhands browser click 'testid=conversation-mobile-panel-back' --expect-url '/conversations/[^/]+$' returns to the chat. Return with control-openhands browser viewport desktop.

After each group run control-openhands browser errors --app-only. The Monaco disposal error above belongs to this family. 404s on /api/llm/balance and .agents_tmp/ downloads come from the Usage and Planner tabs (F27).

Arrange a Markdown file in the selected workspace containing a heading and a fenced Python print("qa") block. Open it from Files in Rich mode and take browser screenshot --feature F08.files-rich-plain --name fenced-code. Known failure (reproduced 2026-10-12, #16802): the code renders in nested dark/gray containers with repeated padding. This is a layout-only observation; the measured pre and prose ancestor had zero border width, so it is not a claim of visible CSS borders.

In a disposable workspace Git fixture, create and commit my notes.md, then modify it (plain shell Git/file commands are fixture setup, not UI proof). Open its empty Local conversation's Commits tab and read browser network --filter '/git/'. Expected: the modified path and other changes stay listed. Known failure (reproduced 2026-10-12, OpenHands/software-agent-sdk#5642): the scoped changes call returns 400 and hides the Uncommitted changes. Only the space-name case was tested; the same issue's non-ASCII and rename cases still require their own checks.

In a disposable fixture, arrange 1800 tiny files beneath three 220-character directory segments so the sorted relative-path listing exceeds one MiB while remaining below the 2000-file cap. Keep a normal tracked README at the root. Open Files, click testid=files-tab-refresh, then count role=button[name="README.md"][exact] and inspect the tree. Known failure (reproduced 2026-10-12, OpenHands/software-agent-sdk#5638): the README disappears and a spurious partial-path folder appears because the command API returns the tail output chunk only. The greater-than-100-chunk/null-exit case was not driven.

Expected: a workspace at repo/src lists changes beneath that folder relative to it, and its diffs open. Known failure (reproduced 2026-10-16, SDK 1.55.0, OpenHands/software-agent-sdk#5843): tracked paths retain the repository prefix while untracked paths are relative to src; opening displayed src/app.py requests repo/src/src/app.py and returns400. The ordinary repository-root control lists correct paths. The recipe creates only disposable, idle offline conversations.

Expected: a plain workspace holding one dirty repository exposes that repository's changes. Known failure (reproduced 2026-10-16, pinned SDK 1.55.0, OpenHands/software-agent-sdk#5641): the changes request returns200 with no changes and Commits reads No commits yet although the child repository is dirty. The upstream fix is closed but not included in the current pin. The recipe removes only its own verified empty parent .git; never remove a user's repository.
