Problem

On Windows with both Windows and WSL backends enabled, a WSL thread has no Open in editor control and its shortcut does nothing. The expected behavior is to open the WSL project in the Windows editor connected to the correct distro.

Change

Use the desktop-managed distro name to open WSL folders in VS Code or VS Code Insiders through their existing remote URL mechanism. The picker, favorite-editor shortcut, and chat file links use the Linux path. Electron validates the WSL URLs before opening them.

Scope and approval

Fixes #25427, which records the dual-backend reproduction and expected behavior. The change keeps the fix to the existing editor-opening workflow. The issue has no maintainer approval comment or triage label that I could find.

Verification

  • On Windows 11 with Ubuntu WSL and VS Code, the contributor opened a WSL project from the development desktop app and confirmed it opened successfully. VS Code displayed its external remote-path confirmation.
  • Focused web unit tests: 30 passed; desktop shell tests: 6 passed; Open in picker browser tests: 5 passed. Web and contracts typechecks passed.
  • A Windows web build passed with a separate local build-path workaround; that unrelated workaround is not included in this PR.
  • vp run check:changed: formatting, lint, dependency checks and React compiler passed; server typecheck reported 45 errors in unchanged server files, and an existing Windows chat file-link test failed on d:alert. I have not confirmed those failures on the base revision.
  • A real desktop test of a chat file link with line and column and before/after screenshots remain outstanding.

Implemented with GPT-6 Luna using the Copilot harness and GPT-6.1 Terra using the Codex harness.

Fixes pingdotgg/t3code#25427

Approvability

Verdict: Needs Human Approval

Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — WSL editor actions now automatically use Windows-side VS Code/Insiders deep links instead of local execution. Human confirmation is needed for that default workflow and editor-choice change; the unresolved dot-relative file-link finding is separately blocking.

Needs human approval because:

Walkthrough

This change adds WSL-aware editor opening for desktop environments. It identifies WSL distributions from desktop bootstrap data, builds and opens VS Code and VS Code Insiders remote URLs, supports Markdown file links, and validates WSL URLs in Electron.

Changes: WSL Editor Flow

Layer / File(s)Summary
Read desktop-local bootstraps
apps/web/src/connection/desktopLocal.ts, apps/web/src/connection/desktopLocal.test.ts, apps/web/src/connection/useDesktopLocalBootstraps.ts		The reader exposes complete and secondary bootstrap lists. The polling atom reads all bootstraps, while the hook filters out the primary environment.
Resolve WSL remote-open state
apps/web/src/remoteOpen.ts, apps/web/src/remoteOpen.test.ts, apps/web/src/components/chat/OpenInPicker.logic.test.ts		Remote-open resolution uses desktop bootstrap data to identify a running WSL distro. It adds the wsl-links mode and selects WSL-capable editors.
Build WSL editor URLs and resolve file paths
packages/contracts/src/editor.ts, apps/web/src/markdownFileHostPath.ts, apps/web/src/markdownFileHostPath.test.ts, packages/contracts/src/filesystem.ts, apps/server/src/workspace/WorkspaceFileSystem.ts, apps/server/src/workspace/WorkspaceFileSystem.test.ts, apps/web/src/markdown-links.ts, apps/web/src/markdown-links.test.ts		The URL builder validates editor, distro, and path inputs. The Markdown file URL helper resolves paths against the working directory and includes file positions when provided. Filesystem metadata can optionally include resolved real paths. Markdown link metadata retains the source path.
Use WSL URLs in editor actions
apps/web/src/components/ChatMarkdown.tsx, apps/web/src/components/chat/OpenInPicker.tsx, apps/web/src/components/chat/OpenInPickerShortcut.ts, apps/web/src/components/chat/OpenInPicker.browser.test.tsx		The picker, favorite-editor shortcut, and Markdown file links use WSL URLs in WSL-link mode. Tests cover editor options, workspace URLs, and picker visibility.
Detect WSL editors and validate URLs
apps/desktop/src/ipc/methods/window.ts, apps/desktop/src/ipc/methods/window.test.ts, apps/desktop/src/electron/ElectronShell.ts, apps/desktop/src/electron/ElectronShell.test.ts		On Windows, editor detection checks registered protocol handlers for WSL-capable editors. Electron accepts validated VS Code WSL remote URLs.

Merge Risk: External image Minimal · up to 61304

This change restores editor opening for WSL projects on Windows using VS Code remote URLs, with Electron validating those URLs. No actionable merge-blocking risk remains from the reviewed evidence. A real Windows and WSL test of a file link with line and column is still outstanding.

Explanation

The title "fix(desktop): open WSL projects in VS Code" matches the main change. The changeset adds WSL remote-URL opening for VS Code and VS Code Insiders across the picker, favorite-editor shortcut, chat file links, and Electron URL validation. The title uses a conventional commit format and is specific enough for a teammate to identify the primary change. It is slightly narrower than the full scope because the change also covers Insiders and chat file links, which is expected for a short title.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template sections (Problem, Change, Scope and approval, Verification) and explains the dual-backend Windows and WSL problem, the approach of using the desktop-managed distro name with VS Code remote URLs, and the linked issue. Verification is detailed, with test counts, a manual Windows 11 check, and disclosed failing checks. The Scope section states that no maintainer approval comment or triage label was found, which the template requires for approval. The description also notes that a real desktop test of a chat file link with line and column and before/after screenshots remain outstanding, so the UI-change evidence requirement is not met. The description also omits the agent model/harness line in the required format, although it does include an implementation note. These gaps are non-critical relative to the overall completeness, so the check passes.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #25427 requires that, in dual mode (Windows and WSL backends enabled), a WSL thread shows an Open in editor control, that Ctrl+O opens the thread folder or worktree in an editor, and that the editor connects to the correct distro. The whole-PR summary shows this implementation. resolveRemoteOpenState in apps/web/src/remoteOpen.ts returns a wsl-links state with the desktop-managed distro for desktop-local wsl: backends. OpenInPicker.tsx and OpenInPickerShortcut.ts use WSL-capable editors (VS Code and VS Code Insiders, via WSL_REMOTE_EDITOR_IDS and wslCapableEditors) and build a vscode-remote/wsl+<distro> URL through buildWslOpenUrl in packages/contracts/src/editor.ts. ElectronShell.ts accepts only validated WSL URLs. Tests cover picker visibility for wsl-links and local-exec, shortcut behavior, URL construction, editor filtering, and desktop URL validation. No unmet coding requirement from #25427 is demonstrated. The manual Windows test and the unverified check failures in the PR description do not change this result for the issue's picker and shortcut requirements. Automated tests were not executed in this review. The result relies on the summarized tests and source evidence.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes support the WSL editor-opening workflow. Desktop bootstrap changes (desktopLocal.ts, useDesktopLocalBootstraps.ts) supply the WSL distro to resolveRemoteOpenState. The rename to readDesktopLocalBootstraps and the readAll methods support this lookup. Contract changes (buildWslOpenUrl, WSL_REMOTE_EDITOR_IDS, optional resolveRealPath and realPath in filesystem schemas) support WSL URL construction and path safety. ElectronShell.ts validation and window.ts Windows protocol-handler probing support launching the editor. ChatMarkdown.tsx, markdownFileHostPath.ts, markdown-links.ts, and WorkspaceFileSystem realpath changes apply the same WSL mechanism to chat file links. The PR description names chat file links as part of the change, so they are in stated scope. No unrelated product behavior change is demonstrated. Open uncertainty: the PR reports an existing Windows chat file-link test failing on d:alert, and server typecheck errors in unchanged files. The author has not confirmed these on the base revision. If the d:alert failure comes from this PR, it affects the chat file-link part of the change, not the linked issue requirements.

Normalize relative file paths before building the WSL URL.

If a markdown link names ./src/file.ts or ../file.ts, resolvePathLinkTarget preserves the dot segment in the absolute path. buildWslOpenUrl then returns undefined, so the WSL file action reports an open failure. Normalize the resolved Linux path before passing it to the builder, and cover a dot-segment link in the file-link test. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Resolve parent segments on the WSL host.

If linked points to /opt/pkg/src, /home/me/repo/linked/../file.ts names /opt/pkg/file.ts. This code instead opens /home/me/repo/file.ts, because Linux follows the symbolic link before resolving ... (man7.org)

Assert that network paths skip realpath.

A regression that calls NodeFSP.realpath on a network path would still pass the current null assertion. In metadataForPath, a realpath failure becomes null, and stat runs only after resolution succeeds. The existing statted check cannot catch this either, because stat is never reached. Touching a network path can make Windows sign in to the host with the user's NTLM credentials, so the test should assert on the realpath call itself.

Clear the module-level realpath mock immediately before the operation, then assert that it was not called:

Suppress WSL editor actions when no WSL editor is available.

When the desktop probe returns only cursor, wslCapableEditors returns ["vscode"]. The picker and shortcut then build a VS Code WSL URL. On a machine without a VS Code handler, Electron rejects the URL and the action does nothing.

Return the filtered list instead. This removes the false VS Code option and disables the shortcut when no supported WSL editor is available.

Extract the WSL open handler and fix its editor-specific message.

The WSL handler is a 30-line async closure inside a nested ternary in JSX props. It has two avoidable problems.

  • remoteOpen.state.mode === "wsl-links" ? remoteOpen.state.distro : "" at Line 897 only works around TypeScript losing the narrowing inside the closure. If the mode ever differs, buildWslOpenUrl rejects the empty distro and the user sees only the generic open error.
  • The error at Line 904 always says "VS Code". wslEditor can be vscode-insiders, and the menu label already names the selected editor.

Capture the distro once, outside the closure. Move the handler into a named local function. Build the message from openInEditorMenuLabel(wslEditor) or the editor label.

Proposed shape

Then use openInWslEditor ?? (canOpenApp ? ... : canUseShellActions ? ... : undefined) for onOpen.

Note

Written by claude-opus-5-5 on behalf of Maria

Merged current main into this branch (merge commit, no rebase) to clear the conflict with #21661.

  • remoteOpen.ts: resolveRemoteOpenState takes both wslDistro and main's hostEnvironmentId. The host-environment check runs first, then the WSL branches.
  • remoteOpen.test.ts and OpenInPicker.logic.test.ts: kept both sides' cases and passed hostEnvironmentId: null to the WSL ones.

No other code changed. The dot-segment findings on markdownFileHostPath.ts are already handled: . segments are dropped, and links with .. resolve through the server's real path before the URL is built.

vp run check:changed passes on the merge (format, lint, knip, typecheck, 12 test files). Not verified on a real Windows + WSL desktop.

Check filesystem-read scope before the .. path lookup.

The WSL action checks only AuthOrchestrationOperateScope. For paths that contain .., it then calls the filesystem metadata RPC. That RPC requires AuthFilesystemReadScope. A session that has operate scope without filesystem-read scope can pass the action guard and then fail the lookup. The action reports "Could not resolve the file path on the WSL environment," which does not identify the missing grant.

Add the same explicit scope check before the metadata call:

Build a folder URL for Markdown folder links.

The Markdown parser accepts a link such as docs/. This call always uses buildWslMarkdownFileUrl, which sets isFile: true; it turns the folder target into a file-position URL ending in docs:1:1. Preserve the folder/file distinction when building the WSL URL so the editor receives the folder target. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Resolve ~/ links before building a WSL URL.

For a WSL project at /mnt/c/project, resolvePathLinkTarget("~/notes.md", cwd) leaves ~/notes.md unchanged. Line 862 checks only for .., so the WSL URL builder rejects the non-absolute path and the editor action shows an error. Resolve ~/ through filesystem metadata as well; the server accepts that path form and returns realPath. Add a focused case for a cwd outside /home/<user>. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
