Peter Steinberger 9ecb2f3a84 feat(ui): restore sidebar chrome, delete the pane workspace strip, compact native narrow header (#103561)
* feat(ui): restore sidebar chrome and remove the pane workspace strip

Reverse course from #103426 on the app chrome: the left sidebar owns
brand, pinned navigation + More, New session, sessions, and the footer
(status dot, Settings, Docs, pairing, theme) again, and the desktop
topbar is gone. What stays from that PR: the dockable workspace rail
(right/bottom, drag or button), the in-flow split-pane headers, and
Cmd+B now hides the sidebar entirely (no 78px icon rail) with a
floating expand control.

The real target of the original request: the vertical icon strip at
each pane's right edge is deleted. A collapsed workspace rail renders
nothing; the toggle (with a changed-file badge) lives in the split-pane
header next to split/close, or floats at the top-right in single-pane
chat. Shift+Cmd+B still toggles.

Narrow native macOS windows (e.g. the in-app link browser splitting
the window) previously stacked 50px of injected titlebar padding on
top of the 58px drawer row; the web CSS now folds that into one
compact 58px row beside the traffic lights, with selectors that
outrank the rules shipped Mac apps inject.

* chore(ui): regenerate locale bundles and docs map for sidebar restore

* fix(ui): bind showPaneHeader explicitly on the classic single pane

* chore(ui): reconcile locale metadata after rebase onto lobster wild cards

OpenClaw macOS app (dev + signing)

Quick dev run

# from repo root
scripts/restart-mac.sh

Options:

scripts/restart-mac.sh --no-sign   # fastest dev; ad-hoc signing (TCC permissions do not stick)
scripts/restart-mac.sh --sign      # force code signing (requires cert)

Packaging flow

scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Creates dist/OpenClaw.app and signs it via scripts/codesign-mac-app.sh.

Signing behavior

Auto-selects identity (first match):

  1. Developer ID Application
  2. Apple Distribution
  3. Apple Development
  4. first available identity

If none found:

  • errors by default
  • set ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 or SIGN_IDENTITY="-" to ad-hoc sign

Team ID audit (Sparkle mismatch guard)

After signing, we read the app bundle Team ID and compare every Mach-O inside the app. If any embedded binary has a different Team ID, signing fails.

Skip the audit:

SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

Library validation workaround (dev only)

If Sparkle Team ID mismatch blocks loading (common with Apple Development certs), opt in:

DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 scripts/package-mac-app.sh

This adds com.apple.security.cs.disable-library-validation to app entitlements. Use for local dev only; keep off for release builds.

Useful env flags

  • SIGN_IDENTITY="Apple Development: Your Name (TEAMID)"
  • ALLOW_ADHOC_SIGNING=1 (ad-hoc, TCC permissions do not persist)
  • CODESIGN_TIMESTAMP=off (offline debug)
  • DISABLE_LIBRARY_VALIDATION=1 (dev-only Sparkle workaround)
  • SKIP_TEAM_ID_CHECK=1 (bypass audit)
