Adds a Push delivery (watch) section to the root README with exit-code
table, cross-process semantics, and the active-vs-idle latency caveat
that came out of the empirical Claude Code BashOutput test. Adds a brief
reference + cross-link in node/README.md, and notes the SessionStart
bootstrap behavior in plugin/README.md alongside the existing hook
table. Adds /v1/watch to the REST surface table and the watch verb to
the CLI listing.

Fold daemonError into SessionAnnounceOptions so the helper owns the
mutually-exclusive choice between peer list and daemon-down hint. Before
this fix, a session-announce against an unreachable daemon emitted both
"No other mailboxes seen within the last 60 minutes (0 total registered)."
(misleading — the daemon was never asked) AND the daemon-unreachable hint.
Now only the hint appears when the daemon is down.

The rename test relied on a fixed 300ms setTimeout to fire after the CLI
subprocess had registered its waiter — adequate in isolation but flaky
under full-suite load on Windows (CLI spawn + first HTTP request can
exceed 300ms). Add a tiny public MailboxStore.waiterCount(name) helper
so the test can poll until the waiter is actually registered before
triggering the rename. Also tighten the missing-name assertion from
not-zero to the contract-exact exit code 1.

Fastify's default connectionTimeout is 0 (no timeout). With /v1/watch
holding requests open for up to 300s, an OS-level cap prevents a stuck
socket from persisting forever even if app-level cleanup misses a case.
Set just above the watch max so a healthy long-poll never races the
socket timeout.

Wrap the long-poll handler in try/finally to detach the req.raw close
listener on every resolution path, and use reply.hijack() on the aborted
branch so Fastify does not attempt to write to a socket that's already
closed (which would otherwise emit per-disconnect log noise once the
watcher relaunch loop is busy). Behavior on the wire is unchanged for
the four documented status codes.

The Node port (@kuns/claude-mailbox) is the recommended runtime and
covers all supported features. Maintaining a wire-compatible .NET twin
adds dual-impl tax with no remaining users, so remove src/, tests/,
solution + MSBuild files, NuGet config, and both .NET CI workflows.
Docs updated: README "Path C" build-from-source section dropped,
architecture diagram + Development section simplified, and node/README
no longer subtitles itself as a port of the .NET daemon.

Fastify forbids addHook after the instance is listening, so the
sweep-timer cleanup hook from 1.5.0 threw on every `serve` startup
and crashed the daemon. Register the hook first, then start
listening, and assign the timer through a ref.
Mailbox listings grew unbounded as old sessions ended without
unregistering. This adds two layers of cleanup, configurable via
mailbox.json or `serve` flags:
- Lazy filter: list responses (REST /v1/list, MCP list_mailboxes)
drop mailboxes idle longer than hideAfterMinutes (default 24h),
while always keeping the caller and any sender with messages
pending for them.
- Background sweep: startServer runs an initial prune on boot and
schedules an unref'd interval timer that hard-deletes mailboxes
idle longer than deleteAfterMinutes (default 7d) which have no
pending messages, and wipes their delivered history.
Importing server.js statically also imports db.ts, which pulls in
node:sqlite at startup. On Linux that emits an ExperimentalWarning to
stderr for every CLI invocation -- visible to users running the hook on
every prompt. Defer the server import into the serve action so check
--hook / session-announce / send / peek / list never touch sqlite.

Mailbox names are now built as <project>-<session-short>, where <project>
is the sanitized git-repo basename (or cwd basename) — no more env-var
prefix step. Sessions can re-tag themselves at runtime via the new
mcp__mailbox__rename tool (POST /v1/rename), which transfers all
pending messages to the new name in a single transaction. Peers using
the old name re-discover via list_mailboxes.
BREAKING: \$CLAUDE_MAILBOX_NAME is no longer read. Existing setups that
relied on the env-var prefix should remove it from .claude/settings.json;
the prefix now comes from the working directory automatically.

Native binding caused install pain on every new Node major (no prebuilts +
node-gyp needs VS+Windows SDK to fall back). For this project's workload
(a few ops/day, no advanced SQLite features) better-sqlite3's perf edge is
irrelevant — node:sqlite's bundled, ABI-stable sync API is the better fit.
- db.ts: DatabaseSync, db.exec("PRAGMA …"), explicit BEGIN/COMMIT helper to
replace db.transaction(); row casts go through unknown because node:sqlite
returns Record<string, SQLOutputValue>.
- package.json: drop better-sqlite3 + @types/better-sqlite3, bump
engines.node to >=24, vitest 2 → 4 (2.x couldn't resolve `node:sqlite`).
- mailbox-doctor: add Step 1 that enforces Node ≥24 with a concrete fix
message, renumbers downstream steps.
Node 1.2.0 → 1.3.0. 35 transitive packages removed from the lockfile.

Before registering the Scheduled Task / Run-key / launchd / systemd unit,
probe /health on the resolved port. If a non-claude-mailbox service
answers, refuse with a helpful hint (`--port <n>` or mailbox.json) so
users don't end up with autostart firing against an occupied port.
Pass --skip-port-check to bypass.
The doctor already had this logic in Step 2; now standalone
install-autostart invocations are protected too.
47822 collided with ClaudeDo.Worker.exe on at least one user's machine.
37849 is high, registered to nobody, and avoids the prior conflict.
Both the Node port and the .NET port move together (still
wire-compatible). Defaults change only — if a user has a custom port
in mailbox.json, that stays.
Two production-readiness fixes so colleagues can install cleanly:
1. Plugin's MCP server now spawns `claude-mailbox mcp-stdio`, a small
stdio MCP wrapper that proxies tool calls to the daemon's REST API.
Claude Code does not support env-var substitution in HTTP MCP `url`
fields (issue #46889), so the wrapper is the only way to make the
daemon URL configurable per machine via CLAUDE_MAILBOX_URL.
2. Windows `install-autostart` now falls back from `schtasks /Create`
to an HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run entry
when Group Policy blocks the Scheduled Task path. Both modes are
per-user, no admin, persist across logoffs. The chosen mode is
recorded in ~/.claude-mailbox/autostart-mode so status/start/stop/
uninstall-autostart pick the right cleanup path.
Also bumps the npm version to 1.0.1 to align with the published 1.0.0
plus this patch.
The plugin's UserPromptSubmit and SessionStart hooks call `claude-mailbox`
with no --url flag, so they previously always hit the hardcoded
http://127.0.0.1:47822/mcp default. If port 47822 was held by another
local service (e.g. ClaudeDo), the daemon couldn't bind there and every
hook was talking to the wrong process.
CLI default for --url now resolves to $CLAUDE_MAILBOX_URL when set,
falling back to http://127.0.0.1:47822. Doctor gained a Step 2 that
probes /health on 47822, identifies foreign occupants, picks a free
port, writes both ~/.claude-mailbox/mailbox.json and the
CLAUDE_MAILBOX_URL entry in .claude/settings.json env so the hooks
follow along automatically.
Also adds a fallback hint when Windows schtasks /Create fails with
Access is denied (Group Policy restricts non-admin task creation): run
install-autostart from an elevated shell, or accept an ephemeral serve
for the current session.
session-announce now calls /v1/list with the session's X-Mailbox header,
which both registers the session with the daemon and returns all known
mailboxes in one round-trip. The output appends an "Active peers" block
listing mailboxes seen within the last hour (configurable via
--peer-window-minutes), capped at 10 entries by default. Self is
filtered out; the list is sorted most-recent-first.
So when the user says "I started a second session, coordinate with it",
Claude already has the peer's mailbox name in context — no manual
list_mailboxes call needed.
The peer-formatting logic is extracted into formatActivePeerList for
unit testing; CLI tests now pin --url to an unreachable port to keep
assertions stable on machines that have a real daemon running.
MCP tools (send/check_inbox/peek_inbox/list_mailboxes) now accept the
caller's mailbox name as an explicit argument (from/name), falling back
to the X-Mailbox header for legacy single-session HTTP setups. This
unblocks multi-session coordination through a shared .mcp.json — each
Claude session passes its own session-derived name on every call,
instead of relying on a single transport header that all sessions
would share.
The plugin now ships .mcp.json (no header), and the SessionStart
announcement spells out the exact args to pass to each mcp__mailbox__*
tool so Claude wires it up automatically.
The hook now derives a unique mailbox name from the session_id supplied
on hook stdin, so two parallel Claude Code sessions in the same project
get distinct mailboxes (e.g. `claude-a8b3c1d2`, `claude-d4e5f6a7`)
instead of colliding on a shared env value. An optional
CLAUDE_MAILBOX_NAME base prefix flavors the names as `<base>-<sid>`.
Adds:
- `claude-mailbox session-announce` subcommand for the new SessionStart
hook, which prints the current session's mailbox name to context
- `/claude-mailbox:mailbox-update` slash command for `npm update` +
daemon restart
- stdin parsing helpers (parseHookStdin, deriveSessionName) with unit
tests; the doctor no longer needs a mandatory name prompt
Adds a /plugin marketplace at the repo root and a `claude-mailbox` plugin under
plugin/ that wires the UserPromptSubmit hook without needing the per-user
`install-hook` step. The hook command (`claude-mailbox check --hook`) now reads
the mailbox name from $CLAUDE_MAILBOX_NAME when --name is omitted and emits a
one-line setup hint when the daemon is unreachable, so a missing daemon is loud
instead of invisible.
The plugin only contains the Claude Code glue — the daemon binary is still a
separate prerequisite (`npm i -g @kuns/claude-mailbox` + install-autostart),
and the plugin/README plus main README spell out the three-step setup.
Adds `install-hook` / `uninstall-hook` subcommands that idempotently patch
~/.claude/settings.json (or .claude/settings.json with --project), plus a
`--hook` flag on `check` that emits human-readable output and stays silent
on empty inbox or unreachable daemon.
Introduces @kuns/claude-mailbox under node/, a wire-compatible TypeScript
port of the .NET daemon that distributes via the public Gitea npm registry.
The .NET project stays in src/ClaudeMailbox/ untouched; users pick whichever
flavor they prefer.
- node/ project: fastify + @modelcontextprotocol/sdk StreamableHTTPServerTransport
+ better-sqlite3, schema and wire surface match the C# version (port 47822,
X-Mailbox header, MCP tool names, snake_case SQLite columns)
- Cross-platform autostart: Scheduled Task (Win, no admin) / Windows Service
(Win, --service) / launchd (mac) / systemd --user (linux)
- 9/9 vitest tests pass; end-to-end /health + send/check round-trip verified
- CI split: existing ci.yml/release.yml renamed to *-dotnet.yml with path
filters, new ci-node.yml and release-node.yml publish to Gitea npm registry
- install.ps1 / install.sh bootstrap one-liners at repo root; homebrew/
contains a tap formula template
- README install section reordered: npm path primary, dotnet publish secondary
