/** * SingleTabGate — allow only ONE live AgentGUI tab/window per browser. * * Two open copies of the app are actively harmful, not just wasteful: each * desk's live activity stream is a single server-side queue, so two activity * WebSockets steal alternating tokens from each other (fragmented chat), and * two FloorManagers patrol/audit/nudge the same desks concurrently. * * Mechanism: the Web Locks API. The first tab acquires an exclusive lock and * holds it for its lifetime (auto-released by the browser on close/crash). * Any later tab fails the `ifAvailable` probe, renders a blocking overlay * instead of the app, and queues a waiting lock request — so it activates * automatically the moment the holder goes away. "Use here instead" broadcasts * a takeover: the holder releases its lock (unmounting the app and closing all * its WebSockets) and shows a "moved to another tab" screen. * * Browsers without `navigator.locks` (non-secure contexts, very old engines) * skip gating entirely — same behavior as before this component existed. */ import { useEffect, useRef, useState, type ReactNode } from "react"; const LOCK_NAME = "agent-gui-single-tab"; const TAKEOVER_CHANNEL = "agent-gui-tab-takeover"; type GateStatus = "pending" | "active" | "blocked" | "deactivated"; const hasLocks = typeof navigator !== "undefined" && "locks" in navigator; export default function SingleTabGate({ children }: { children: ReactNode }) { const [status, setStatus] = useState(hasLocks ?
