No change was needed in this round. All 36 checks on PR #37151 passed at 45e58f3, including the 8 required ones, and Macroscope approved it. CodeRabbit posted one finding rated Minor: add a regression test for the dual-backend candidate filter in useAccessEnvironment. It is below the high threshold, so it was left; writing that test would mean pulling the inline filter out of the React hook into a pure function, and the issue already says the bug could not be written as a test. The fix still makes enabled desktop-local WSL backends candidates in Sharing & access. Desktop-managed controls stay limited to the primary environment through isPrimaryAccess.

Fixes #37136

Reproduction on main

Commit f0a3321 (origin/main) on a leased Windows Server 2025 machine with WSL2 Ubuntu 24.04 (Node 24.11.1 installed in the distro, since the image had none). Fresh worktree, vp i, server built with vp run build in apps/server (dev-mode WSL backend runs the checkout's apps/server/dist/bin.mjs from /mnt/c), then vp run dev:desktop with T3CODE_DEV_SEED=0, the T3 Connect test-stage relay/Clerk env, and T3CODE_DESKTOP_REMOTE_DEBUGGING_PORT; the Electron window was driven with Playwright over CDP. Steps: Settings → Sharing & access → WSL backend select → Ubuntu → dialog 'Start the WSL backend' → 'Run both backends'. Result: desktop-settings.json {wslBackendEnabled:true, wslDistro:'Ubuntu'}, getWslState enabled:true wslOnly:false preflightError:null; inside WSL node .../apps/server/dist/bin.mjs listens on 0.0.0.0:16424; desktopBridge.getLocalEnvironmentBootstraps() returns both 'primary' (Windows, 127.0.0.1:16423) and 'wsl:Ubuntu' ('WSL (Ubuntu)', 172.x:16424). Settings → Sharing & access then shows only the Windows environment header with its T3 Connect 'Sign in' row; there is no environment picker, and the header's '...' menu only offers 'Icon'. By contrast, Settings → Providers' environment picker lists both 'win-01 127.0.0.1:16423' and 'WSL (Ubuntu) 172.x:16424', so the client has the WSL backend as an environment, yet Sharing & access offers no way to select it and so no way to turn on T3 Connect or agent-activity publishing for it.

Evidence

Evidence: real Windows Server 2025 Electron desktop with WSL2 Ubuntu 24.04, fresh state on each commit, 1440×900, light theme.

On both commits: Settings → Sharing & access → WSL backend → Ubuntu → Run both backends; confirm both environments in Providers; return to Sharing & access and attempt to select WSL.

Before recording	After recording

On head, selecting WSL exposes its own controls. Both Publish agent activity and T3 Connect were enabled, and the WSL tunnel reached connected status. The Windows backend's switches remained off.

Not shown:

• Connection from a second device and delivery of agent-activity notifications were not exercised; the proof covers backend selection, configuration, and the WSL host's connected tunnel.

Tests

Nothing new this round. PR CI at 45e58f3: all 36 checks passed. Earlier: vp run check:changed passed (format, lint, knip, typecheck of 2 packages, react compiler, tests beside the change).

Not in this change

• PR feat(web,server): link and name the WSL backend separately #33860 also adds a 'not on T3 Connect' prompt row on the primary access page, a WSL-specific server environment label, and a docs/user/install.md paragraph; these are additions beyond the fix and were not included.
• CodeRabbit Minor suggestion to extract the access-candidate filter into a pure helper and add a dual-backend regression test.
• PR feat(web,server): link and name the WSL backend separately #33860 additions (a 'not on T3 Connect' prompt row, a WSL-specific server label, a user docs paragraph).

Approvability

Verdict: Approved at 45e58f3

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Enabled desktop-local WSL backends become available in Sharing & access and the shared MCP environment selection. This changes UI eligibility without automatically granting access or changing server exposure.

Walkthrough

The access environment hook now includes enabled desktop-local environments among its candidates. Its exported signature is unchanged.

Changes: Access environment candidates

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Include desktop-local environments apps/web/src/components/settings/useAccessEnvironment.ts	Enabled environments are candidates even when their connection target is desktop-local. The hook comment now identifies a desktop-local WSL backend as a candidate.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix · Severity of issue fixed: Medium

Suggested reviewers: t3dotgg

Merge Risk: Low · up to 45e58

The change lets the WSL backend appear in the Sharing and access picker in dual-backend mode, as requested. The functional change looks sound. It ships without a regression test, which the repository requires, and one can be added cheaply.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title names the main change: Sharing & access can now select the desktop-local WSL backend. It matches the raw summary, which removes the desktop-local exclusion in useAccessEnvironment, and it matches the linked issue #37136. It follows the conventional commit format. The 65-character length is acceptable.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

[#37136] The issue requires that Settings → Sharing & access let users select the desktop-local WSL backend (local:wsl:<distro>) when Windows and WSL run side by side, so that T3 Connect and agent-activity publishing can be configured for it. The diff in apps/web/src/components/settings/useAccessEnvironment.ts removes the !isDesktopLocalConnectionTarget(...) condition. Any enabled environment is now a candidate, so the WSL environment enters the candidate list. The candidate count can exceed one, so the environment picker can render. The requested environment remains a candidate, so a thread on a second WSL backend still resolves to that backend. The change is limited to candidate selection. Downstream T3 Connect and publishing behavior for a non-primary environment is not changed by this diff. The PR description states that this code already runs against the selected environment, and reports #26464 as prior verification. That claim was not checked in this assessment. The requirement to select the WSL backend in the UI is met by this change.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The whole-PR diff against the merge base 1b14aad changes only apps/web/src/components/settings/useAccessEnvironment.ts (+3/-4). The change removes one filter condition, drops the now-unused isDesktopLocalConnectionTarget import, and updates the doc comment. All edits connect directly to the candidate selection that #37136 requires. The PR description and the objectives state that no new tests or other files were added. The PR description also lists PR #33860 extras (a prompt row, a WSL label, and docs) as excluded. No unrelated change is present.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description contains substantial, specific content: the reproduction on main, before/after evidence with screenshots and recordings, a stated link to the issue (Fixes #37136), and a statement of tests run. It is not generic. However, it departs from the template in several ways. The 'Problem', 'Change', 'Scope', and 'Verification' headings are not used as labeled sections. The conventional commit title is not visible in the body. The 'Tests' section says 'Nothing new this round' and cites a check run rather than focused tests for the changed behavior. The template also asks for the agent model and harness, and the description does list the authors and tools used. The reasoning for having no regression test is given, which is a reasonable disclosure. The description also contains material that is out of scope for this change (a PR #33860 section, and a CodeRabbit finding discussion), which makes it harder to read. The description is mostly complete and gives the reviewer what they need to judge the change, so the check passes despite the structural gaps.

Minor · Maintainability & Code Quality · Quick win

Add a regression test for the dual-backend candidate selection.

The candidate filter in useAccessEnvironment is inline, so the desktop-local case cannot be tested in isolation. Move the predicate into a pure exported helper beside resolveAccessEnvironmentId in ConnectionsSettings.logic.ts. Then add one row to the existing resolveAccessEnvironmentId tests in ConnectionsSettings.logic.test.ts. The row should include an enabled desktop-local WSL entry next to the primary environment and assert that the WSL entry stays a candidate. Reintroducing the desktop-local exclusion makes that row fail.

The repository's testing guide requires logic fixes to start with a failing test. The hook has no existing hook-rendering test pattern, so a pure helper is the lowest layer that can cover this change.
