Integrating the per-session-key auth onto the same branch as the dotfile and
lifecycle work: two tests added after the auth commit opened WebSockets without a
key (server.test.js dotfile-reload, lifecycle.test.js idle-shutdown), which the
auth gate now resets. Pass ?key=/BRAINSTORM_TOKEN in both. Full suite green:
ws-protocol 32, helper 12, auth 13, server 28, lifecycle 7, stop-server 4.
The companion server is reachable by any local browser tab (default loopback
bind) and by any host that can route to it (remote --host bind). It served
screens, files, and accepted event-injecting WebSocket connections with no
authentication, so a malicious browser tab or a direct remote client could read
brainstorm content or inject events that the agent reads as the user's input
(prompt injection into a live session).
Generate a per-session secret token, carry it in the served URL as ?key=, and
mirror it into an HttpOnly SameSite=Strict per-port cookie on first load so
same-origin subresources and the WebSocket handshake authenticate automatically.
Every HTTP request and WebSocket upgrade now requires a valid key (query or
cookie, constant-time compared); unauthenticated requests get a friendly 403
explaining they need the full URL. A secret authenticates the client uniformly
across loopback, tunnel, and remote binds and defeats DNS rebinding, which a
Host/Origin allowlist cannot.
Also guard handleMessage against a null JSON payload that crashed the process.
Tests: new auth.test.js (13 cases) covering the key on /, /files/*, and WS plus
cookie bootstrap and the null-payload guard; server.test.js threads the key;
ws-protocol.test.js + auth.test.js wired into npm test.

On macOS (and ExFAT/SMB volumes) the OS writes ._<name>.html sidecar files
holding binary resource-fork metadata. These end with .html, so they passed the
content filter and could be picked as the newest screen — serving binary garbage
to the browser instead of the mockup — or fetched via /files/.
Skip dotfiles (leading '.') at all four sites that list or serve content:
getNewestScreen, the /files/ endpoint, the known-files seed, and the fs.watch
handler. Tests cover serving (/ and /files/) and the watch path (a ._ file must
not trigger a reload).

Misc platform/runtime statements and adjacencies that don't fit the
prose, config-ref, README-ordering, or tool-vocabulary buckets:
- visual-companion frame template: rename CSS/HTML id #claude-content
→ #frame-content. The id is purely styling — nothing external
references it. The brainstorm-server test that asserted the old
string is updated in lockstep.
- visual-companion launch instructions: add a Copilot CLI section
alongside Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI; combine the Claude
Code (macOS / Linux) and (Windows) sections so heading style
matches the other (non-OS-qualified) platforms.
- visual-companion: "Use Write tool" → "Use your file-creation tool"
for the cat/heredoc warning. The prohibition is what's load-
bearing, not the tool name.
- executing-plans/SKILL.md: list all subagent-capable runtimes
(Claude Code, Codex CLI, Codex App, Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI) and
point at the per-platform tool refs as the source of truth.
- executing-plans/SKILL.md: relative path "using-superpowers/
references/" → "../using-superpowers/references/" to resolve
correctly from the executing-plans/ directory.
No bundled spec doc here — Phase D was scope-extension work that
took place across rounds, with no standalone spec authored.
The session directory now contains two peers: content/ (HTML served to
the browser) and state/ (events, server-info, pid, log). Previously
all files shared a single directory, making server state and user
interaction data accessible over the /files/ HTTP route.
Also fixes stale test assertion ("Waiting for Claude" → "Waiting for
the agent").

Metadata files (.server-info, .events, .server.pid, .server.log,
.server-stopped) were stored in the same directory served over HTTP,
making them accessible via the /files/ route. They now live in a .meta/
subdirectory that is not web-accessible.
Also fixes a stale test assertion ("Waiting for Claude" → "Waiting for
the agent").

Replace vendored node_modules (714 files) with a single server.js
using only Node built-ins. Spec covers WebSocket protocol, HTTP
serving, file watching, and static file serving. Tests written
before implementation (TDD).

Moves lib/brainstorm-server/ → skills/brainstorming/scripts/ so the
brainstorming skill uses relative paths (scripts/start-server.sh) instead
of ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/lib/brainstorm-server/. This follows the
agentskills.io specification for portable, cross-platform skills.
Updates visual-companion.md references and test paths. All tests pass.
WebSocket server for real-time browser communication during brainstorming
sessions. Includes browser helper library for event capture, shell scripts
for server lifecycle management with session isolation and persistent
mockup storage, and integration tests.
