Based on recent review activity, included reviews refill at 4 per hour. 📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThis change adds bounded parent-child threads, local MCP orchestration, full-text thread search, turn-scoped authentication, runtime lifecycle handling, and desktop surfaces for background tasks. ChangesBackground Thread Orchestration
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds background-task orchestration and local task search, but the current head still has unresolved correctness and shutdown-lifecycle issues, including incomplete search results, possible cleanup failures, and lost partial batch results. Merge should wait for these issues to be fixed or explicitly accepted by the owner. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

38-50: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winConsider the SDK localhost guards for Host and Origin.
The Host check requires exact equality with
127.0.0.1:<port>. A client that dialslocalhost:<port>receives 421, even thoughallowedOriginacceptslocalhost. The MCP v2 Node package shipslocalhostHostValidation()andlocalhostOriginValidation()for this rawcreateServer+toNodeHandlerwiring. Using them removes the hand-rolled checks and keeps the accepted host set consistent with the SDK.Also applies to: 67-86

131-136: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winBatch tools use all-or-nothing failure handling. Both batch paths abort the whole tool call on the first failure, so the model loses results for tasks that succeeded. The PR states batch operations report partial success, and the create tool output schema already models per-task errors.

Inline comments:
In `@apps/desktop/src/main/index.ts`:
- Around line 142-149: In the MCP startup catch block around
startDesktoMcpServer, clear the closeRuntime reference before or after awaiting
cleanup so before-quit cannot invoke it a second time. Preserve the existing
cleanup and rethrow behavior.
In `@CONTEXT.md`:
- Line 29: Update the MCP Server glossary entry to describe `@deskto/mcp-server`
as an in-process MCP server rather than a process surface, preserving the
existing description of its Runtime Thread capabilities and Desktop
configuration.
In `@packages/mcp-server/src/server.ts`:
- Around line 146-152: Update the close() method so httpServer.close() always
executes in a finally block when handler.close() rejects or succeeds, while
preserving bindings.clear() and propagating any close errors.
In `@packages/mcp-server/src/thread-tool-support.ts`:
- Around line 129-183: Declare a mutable timeout handle before registering the
transport subscription, then assign it when creating the timeout so finish and
fail can safely call clearTimeout even if subscription triggers a synchronous
event.
In `@packages/runtime/src/storage/migrations.ts`:
- Around line 275-334: Add the condition messages.state <> 'streaming' to every
group_concat query in the thread_search backfill and the
thread_search_after_message_update and thread_search_after_message_delete
triggers, ensuring streaming messages are excluded from all FTS rebuilds.

Summary
Adds
@deskto/mcp-server, a private MCP server that starts with the desktop Runtime. Codex and Claude receive a turn-scoped connection automatically, so users can delegate work to background tasks without installing or configuring an MCP server.What changed
