Email addresses, code spans/fences, indented code, and Markdown quote lines do not trigger it. The message and Agent reply remain visible in the chat; both are marked as Agent asides and are excluded by the backend from later selected-provider conversation history. The Agent root request is not projected into the visible Agent transcript.
+- The completion response identifies an inline Agent reply with `provider: "hermes-agent"`, `model: "sybil-agent"`, and `message.name: "Sybil Agent"`, `message.agentAside: true`.
+- Agent asides are identified by backend-stored `metadata.agentAside`, not client-supplied metadata. The ordinary-chat list/history APIs above support Agent tools reading the complete visible thread, including prior asides and attachment data, with cursor pagination.
+- Before the Agent is invoked, the backend paginates and supplies the complete safe visible-thread projection as required initial context; the Agent does not have to choose `read_chat_history` for the current thread. User/assistant asides and full supported attachment representations are included, while system/tool rows and unrelated metadata are excluded. Historical content remains untrusted context, not new authority.
+- The initial context transfer is limited to 30 MiB. A stored text attachment marked truncated, incomplete history, or a transfer/provider context-limit failure returns an explicit error and no answer from partial history; providers may reject a complete thread that exceeds their model context window.
 - For `chatId` calls, server stores only *new* non-assistant messages from provided history to avoid duplicates.
+- Saved ordinary assistant responses also store the completion's provider/model in `metadata.generation`, exposed by `GET /v1/chats/:chatId`; changing the chat selection does not relabel previous responses.
 - `additionalSystemPrompt`, when present directly or loaded from stored chat settings, is prepended to the provider request as a `system` message and is not inserted into the persisted chat transcript by this endpoint.

The runtime source is version 1 with `{sourceId,conversationId,cursor,hasMore,latestUserMessageAt,nativeReadCursor,uncertain,webPresence:{active,unknown,observedAt},candidates:[{messageId,cursor,createdAt,trigger}]}`; trigger is `user|external_event|timer|worker|unknown`.

It never resets reads/checkpoints, rebaselines, or enumerates historical candidates. Failed/invalid probes and same-source nonregressions remain unavailable and suppress delivery. Runtime native presence/read is an acknowledgment input to the existing canonical backend read state, not a second independently authoritative read store.
+Backend subscribes to the token-authenticated private runtime WebSocket `GET /api/notification-events`. Its initial and coalesced `{type:"notification_changed",version:1}` frames trigger cursor-based reconciliation through `GET /api/notification-context?after=<cursor>&limit=200`; reconnects recover missed changes from the saved durable cursor. The socket uses bearer header authentication, rejects query strings, carries no content, and uses ping/pong without database access. There is no fixed two-second source poll. Local presence/read/prompt changes also wake reconciliation. One-shot timers cover debounce, grace and lease expiry, provider retry and abandoned send intents; idle maintenance runs hourly. Source failures retry with bounded backoff (1–30 seconds). The coordinator still fetches fresh context and checks every eligibility condition before each provider boundary. The backend sends `X-Sybil-Client: backend-proxy-v1` on private proxy REST/WS traffic and `backend-observer-v1` on the notification observer. The marker classifies the proxy for the native attention census and never replaces runtime authentication. The runtime source is version 1 with `{sourceId,conversationId,cursor,hasMore,latestUserMessageAt,nativeReadCursor,uncertain,nextChangeAt?,webPresence:{active,unknown,observedAt},candidates:[{messageId,cursor,createdAt,trigger}]}`; trigger is `user|external_event|timer|worker|unknown`. `nextChangeAt` is an optional nullable ISO deadline for the next runtime attention/uncertainty expiry; pending work schedules a refresh then and earlier events reschedule it. No transcript text is included. `uncertain` and `webPresence.unknown` fail closed. Candidate pages preserve all candidates belonging to each consumed cursor (max 200 candidates/page), advancing across non-candidates; omitted `after` is high-water bootstrap with no old candidates.

Runtime native presence/read is an acknowledgment input to the existing canonical backend read state, not a second independently authoritative read store.
 
 For an otherwise dispatchable message only, the backend resolves its text through the existing authenticated root public endpoint: `GET /api/conversations/root/messages?after=<candidate.cursor-1>&limit=1&includeTools=false`. The URL/path is fixed to the configured runtime, redirects are rejected, the response is limited to 512 KiB and the request to 10 seconds. The page must match the observed root conversation and exact entry cursor; exactly one message must match the candidate ID, assistant role, `metadata.kind:"message"`, `status:"complete"` and entry ID. Only that message's string `content` is used. The runtime's existing root-candidate/provenance rules remain authoritative; a `worker` trigger qualifies only a later public root reply, never the worker's own output. Source/read/presence and all delivery conditions are rechecked after lookup and before committing send intent. Preview text is not persisted in backend outbox/receipt rows. No runtime change or database migration is required.

+
+This change is limited to the web client and its tests/documentation, with no backend contract or native app release changes. This report records the focused mobile QA and remaining device verification limits.
+
+## Reproduction and fixes
+
+The production bundle was exercised with local API/socket fixtures in touch-enabled Chromium at 390×844. Before/after measurements use identical messages and viewport dimensions.
+
+| Area | Before | After |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| Installed display | Manifest preferred `fullscreen`, including `display_override` | `standalone`, no fullscreen override; normal Apple status-bar style |
+| Horizontal table pan | `touch-action: pan-y` on the workspace; table stayed at `scrollLeft=0`, swipe created a new chat | Native table scrolled to `scrollLeft=160`, current chat retained |
+| Regular assistant width | 304.30px of a 358px transcript at 390px viewport | 358px; desktop width rule retained |
+| Agent message width | 287.52px | 287.52px; bubble/avatar styling retained |
+| Compact model | Hidden | Provider and active model beneath title; updates after changing model in settings |
+| Context menu | Assistant context-menu event canceled for a Fork-only menu | Native event allowed for text, links and composer; Copy and Fork are available in the reply footer |
+| Zoom | Viewport disabled user scaling | Fixed-scale viewport retained (`maximum-scale=1.0`, `user-scalable=no`) |
+| Notification failures | Browser exception names and server statuses replaced by a generic error; background refresh erased errors | Stage-specific, redacted recovery guidance, retained until explicit retry/refresh |
+
+Text owns gestures across regular chat, search markdown and Agent. Dynamic horizontal scrollers and code/table/quote elements are protected even at both ends. Selections, multi-touch, long-press starts and touch cancellation abandon navigation tracking. Blank workspace chrome still supports sidebar/new-chat swipes. Notification help is bounded and scrollable; sidebar content remains reachable on shorter screens.
+
+The assistant-footer follow-up replaces the standalone ellipsis with a subtle local date/time from the saved message's `createdAt`, followed by Copy and Fork. The timestamp and first action icon align with the paragraph on mobile and desktop. Copy preserves Markdown and reports clipboard failures without interfering with native selection. Fork uses the existing message-specific endpoint and is disabled while the request is pending. Agent bubbles and streaming placeholders retain their existing presentation; API contracts are unchanged.
+
+## Notification diagnosis and official sources
+
+A read-only authenticated request to the running server's `GET /v1/agent/push/config` returned HTTP 200 with `enabled=true`, `webPushAvailable=true`, a known source, `quarantined=false`, and a public key present. Credentials/key values were not printed. This rules out disabled transport configuration at the time of inspection; it does not prove delivery or identify the actual phone's failed step.
+
+Chromium's Android [GCM driver](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/components/gcm_driver/android/java/src/org/chromium/components/gcm_driver/GCMDriver.java) uses [GoogleCloudMessagingV2](https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/components/gcm_driver/android/java/src/org/chromium/components/gcm_driver/GoogleCloudMessagingV2.java), which checks for `com.google.android.gms` and rejects registration when Google Play services is absent. Vanadium is GrapheneOS's Chromium browser, as documented in the [official browsing guide](https://grapheneos.org/usage#web-browsing). Missing/unreachable Play services is therefore a plausible cause on GrapheneOS; the old generic message cannot establish that cause.

+The [official sandboxed Google Play guide](https://grapheneos.org/usage#sandboxed-google-play) requires dependent apps and Play in the same profile and recommends a battery optimization exception for background push. Check network access, Sybil's site notification permission and Vanadium's Android notification permission, then reload and explicitly enable again. Users choosing not to install Play need a browser with an independent push service. Sybil cannot replace that browser service or inspect installed Android packages, so it does not disable Vanadium based on user-agent detection.
+
+Permission and subscription are separate: [`PushManager.subscribe()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/PushManager/subscribe) can fail after permission was granted. Diagnostics identify the failed layer and known exception name without echoing arbitrary browser/provider messages. No permissions are requested in the background; opt-in still requests permission synchronously from the user's click. Registration failures retain rollback and revocation behavior, including storage failure after browser subscription.
+
+`standalone` can retain the device status bar, unlike fullscreen ([manifest display reference](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Progressive_web_apps/Manifest/Reference/display)). Existing installations may retain older manifest metadata until their browser updates it. Chrome documents [manifest update scheduling](https://web.dev/articles/manifest-updates); Vanadium installation/update behavior still needs device verification. The manifest URL, app ID, start URL and service-worker scope remain stable.
+
+## Automated verification
+
+- `npm run build` and `npm test` in `web`.
+- `mobile-workspace.browser.mjs`: trusted CDP touch pans on tables, nested quotation code and code blocks; both scroll edges; selection/clipboard copy and text paste; uncanceled context-menu events; aligned saved timestamp, Copy success/failure/retry and direct Fork with the correct message ID; synthetic multi-touch/long-press/cancel scenarios; both navigation directions; model change; widths 320, 390, 430 and 767; 1280px desktop check; 450px-height composer checks; unchanged Agent width; manifest and zoom settings. Screenshots were inspected.
+- `agent-push-errors.browser.mjs`: mobile permission dismissal/denial, worker failure, `AbortError`, `NotAllowedError`, `NotSupportedError`, `InvalidStateError`, subscription timeout, HTTP 400/401/403/409/429/503, rollback, preserved error after background refresh, successful retry, missing APIs/insecure context, iOS Home Screen guidance, and reachable notification controls at 320×568 and 390×450. API/push-provider outcomes are mocked; worker registration is real except the deliberate failure case.
+- Existing `agent-push.browser.mjs`: real worker activation/notification display/IndexedDB and read-close, explicit consent, source changes, multiple sessions, credential rotation, revocation and offline logout with mocked push provider/backend.
+- Existing `pwa.browser.mjs`: production service-worker activation/reload and authentication flows.
+
+Run browser checks after building, using an existing Playwright/Chromium installation. These fixtures intentionally reject non-loopback targets and mock backend/provider traffic.
+
+```sh
+cd web
+npm run build
+npm test
+npm run preview -- --host 127.0.0.1 --port 5197 --strictPort
+```
+
+In another shell, with `PLAYWRIGHT_MODULE=/absolute/path/to/playwright-core/index.mjs` and `CHROME_EXECUTABLE=/absolute/path/to/chrome` exported:
+
+```sh
+cd web
+node tests/mobile-workspace.browser.mjs
+node tests/agent-push-errors.browser.mjs
+node tests/agent-push.browser.mjs
+node tests/pwa.browser.mjs
+```
+
+`MOBILE_ARTIFACT_DIR` saves layout screenshots. `PUSH_ERROR_SCREENSHOT` saves notification settings. `MOBILE_BASELINE=1` records the original layout/gesture failures against a separately served original build.
+
+## Device verification limits
+
+No physical GrapheneOS/Vanadium, Android Chrome, or iPhone/Safari device was available. Desktop Chromium touch emulation cannot verify Android system status-bar visibility, native long-press menu rendering/selection handles, actual pinch/keyboard behavior, installed-PWA metadata updates or background FCM delivery. Clipboard tests use the browser engine's keyboard copy/paste and synthetic context-menu dispatch; cancellation/selection assertions are not a claim that Android's system menu was displayed. A shorter viewport approximates keyboard space, without emulating the keyboard itself.
+
+On the user's device after an authorized deployment: check the installed status bar and fixed-scale viewport, pan both ways through wide tables/quotes/code without navigation, long-press/copy/paste, change model, then explicitly enable notifications and inspect the new error if registration fails. Verify actual background delivery with all Sybil web sessions inactive. The underlying phone-specific notification failure remains unconfirmed until that check.

+Installed Sybil uses `standalone` display, retaining the system status bar where the browser supports it. The viewport keeps pinch zoom disabled. Compact regular-chat replies use the transcript width and the active provider/model appears beneath the title; Agent keeps its existing layout.
+
+Horizontal navigation swipes start on workspace chrome or empty space. Text, tables, quotations, code, controls, existing selections and nested horizontal scrollers keep native gestures, including at scroll edges. Long-press/right-click on transcript text and links uses the native browser menu; the reply footer provides Copy and Fork.

+Agent notification settings include separate browser/server failure guidance and an expandable Android / GrapheneOS setup guide. See [mobile QA results and limitations](../docs/mobile-web-qa.md), including how to run the browser fixtures.
