cmux notify delegates to the daemon again; every machine ships the Claude Code and Codex hooks#12296Conversation
PR #11609 replaced the guest shim and brought back a hand translation to notification create: --subtitle folded into the body, --clear silently created an empty row, --reply was dropped. The daemon's notify verb (#12131) owns the macOS signature, so the shim forwards the arguments verbatim on the local session. The superseded guestSelfCli.ts shim and its test go.

Nothing installed cmux-tui agent hooks on a Cloud VM, and the cmux-tui-hook helper was never downloaded, so agents in a machine posted no turn-completed or approval notifications. The daemon install now fetches the helper from the same manifest commit, places it beside the binary, runs cmux-tui agent hook install claude codex as the daemon user, and proves the result (helper byte-equal to the pin, cmux marker in settings.json, hooks.json and the codex trust table). The bake gets it for free through the shared install command plus an agent-hooks proof step; a healthy daemon without hooks gets them on attach for its own pinned commit, no restart. agent-config.sh adds the codex provider around a config.toml the hook installer created first, so the two writers compose in either order.

Detect JSON flags by argument, not by joined text.
Quoted $* joins argument values with spaces. For example, cmux notify --body "status --json complete" matches this pattern and disables --quiet, although the caller did not request JSON output. Iterate through "$@" and match only exact --json or --jsonl arguments. Add a regression test with a body value that contains --json.

official TOML specification quoted keys quoted table names whitespace around dotted keys
💡 Result:
According to the official TOML specification (v1.0.0 and v1.1.0), whitespace behavior regarding keys and table names is handled as follows: Quoted Keys and Table Names TOML supports bare, quoted, and dotted keys [1][2]. Quoted keys follow the same rules as either basic strings or literal strings, allowing for a broader set of key names than bare keys [1][2]. This applies to both key/value pairs and table headers (e.g., [a."quoted.key".c]) [1][2]. Whitespace Around Dotted Keys Whitespace around the dot-separated parts of a dotted key is ignored [1][2]. For example, the following are equivalent: a.b.c = 1 a. b. c = 1 While the specification ignores this whitespace, it designates the use of extraneous whitespace as discouraged, recommending that users avoid it [1][2]. Whitespace Around Table Headers Similarly, whitespace around the key parts within a table header is ignored [1][2]. The specification provides the following examples to illustrate this equivalence: [a.b.c] # best practice [ d.e.f ] # same as [d.e.f] [ g. h. i ] # same as [g.h.i] [ j. "quoted.key". 'l' ] # same as [j."quoted.key".'l'] The ABNF grammar formally defines the dot separator (dot-sep) as including whitespace: dot-sep = ws %x2E ws, where ws represents zero or more spaces or horizontal tabs [3]. Indentation before table headers and keys is also treated as whitespace and is ignored [1][2].

Recognize quoted TOML keys and table names.
When OPENAI_BASE_URL is set, the grep checks do not recognize valid quoted forms such as "model_provider" = "openai", [ "model_providers" . "cmux" ], or [ "history" ]. The merge then adds equivalent keys or tables. TOML rejects these duplicate definitions, so Codex cannot load the configuration. Detect quoted names or use a TOML-aware merge, and add regression cases in web/tests/vm-devbox-image.test.ts.
