- One lasting docker exec takes the desktop as a JPEG inside the box and sends a picture only
when it changed (quicker while it changes, slower while still). Viewers ask for the picture
after the one they have and get it at once. It was one exec per picture (a 1 MB PNG decoded
and encoded again on the brain) and a fixed 0.7 s / 1 s pause: about one picture a second.
Measured on the Mac's box: first picture 45 ms, ~90 KB (was ~1.1 MB), 9–19 pictures a second
while it changes; viewers take at most ~8 a second over the network.
- The loop in the box ends the one before it, ends itself when a write fails ("0" lines while
still) and is ended when nobody watched for 10 s (ending docker exec on this side left it
running in the box).
- The person's clicks and keys go through one lasting shell in the box (text as base64), not a
docker exec each.
- Answers over the lasting connection keep their headers (the relay dropped them): a picture's
number reaches the app. JPEG/PNG/PDF/zip bodies are no longer deflated again.

- New icon: the bot's cloud body and slanted eyes (as in the app's avatars) on a dark tile —
the Mac/Linux app, browser tabs, iPhone home screen (PNG: it ignores SVG), Android and
notifications. The web had its own ring-and-dot.
- anybot --write-icon out.png size [file.svg] draws any SVG (for the web PNGs).
- Phone: lists that reach the bottom keep their last row above the home bar and Safari's
toolbar (it looked cut off); bots show their shape, colour and eyes instead of a letter.

- Ticking 建立新帳號 for an account that already exists signs in with it;
when that fails too, the message says the server has an account and
how to reset a forgotten password.
- anybot-relay --data DIR --reset-password NAME (only while the server is
stopped; asks twice, not shown; signs out that account's phones).

- 加一台電腦 (phone menu and the app's 大腦 card) gives a ten-minute,
one-time code and the line to run: anybot setup <address> <code>. The
new computer joins as hands for that brain with no password and nothing
to answer, starts with the computer and checks the brain sees it.
- anybot setup without arguments is one screen: address and code (a pasted
line fills both), or the account and password instead. No role, name or
confirm questions; a brain is asked only when there are several.
- Hands computers are no longer offered as brains.
- The server setup asks only the domain, account and password.

- anybot setup: a full-screen terminal guide (role, name, account server,
account, which brain) that saves the settings, installs a systemd user
service (with a virtual screen when there is none), and checks that the
account server and the brain see the computer. Flags for scripts.
- Hands can be limited to one brain; the account server says which AnyBot
asks. Choosing a brain in the app does the same.
- deploy/server/setup.sh: domain, account, sign-ups and keys step by step;
writes .env and Caddyfile, starts everything and checks HTTPS. The
server's brain creates the account on first start.
- deploy/linux/hands.sh installs what's needed and opens anybot setup
(no password kept in a file any more).

- Each AnyBot keeps one WebSocket to the account server (pinged, reopened
within a second when cut). Requests come down it at once; calls to other
AnyBots of the account (brain sync, hands) go up it. Frames carry raw
bytes, compressed when that saves space. HTTP long-poll stays as fallback.
- The account server knows at once when an AnyBot goes away.
- Edits to lists and maps go item by item, so two computers editing one
list keep both changes.
- Screens fetch chat files from the brain, get model lists through the
brain's keys, and show the brain's computer as the brain's.
- Moving this computer's bots skips starter bots the brain has and bots
already moved.
- The phone goes to the brain instead of a computer that shows it.
- deploy/linux/hands.sh: a Linux computer (with or without a screen) as
hands, kept running by systemd.

- One worker sends edits, messages and actions to the brain in order.
- Edits carry a number; the brain says which it has, and a screen replays
the rest on top of newer settings so typing isn't undone.
- A message or edit that didn't arrive makes the screen fetch everything again.
- An older copy of a routine can't reset when it last/next runs.
- Network and server failures read as words (no HTTP codes), naming what
can't be reached; the account server notices a closed AnyBot in 8s.

- Brain answers /api/sync (per-screen deltas of settings and messages),
/api/sync/edit (small edit operations) and /api/sync/act (chat actions).
- Relay forwards host-to-host sync requests within one account (role mirror).
- Desktop: choose a brain in 手機與帳號; its own bots are kept aside; offline
shows the last copy read-only and reconnects by itself.
- Keys and tokens stay on the brain (redacted and restored on edits).
- Browser tools can run on another computer of the account (computer arg).
- anybot --serve: ANYBOT_DEVICE_LINK=1 and ANYBOT_BRAIN=名稱.

Rust/egui rebuild of Grok Bot as of 2026-11-04: chat with streaming
providers (xAI, OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, OpenRouter, OpenCode Go, Ollama,
custom), tools and approvals, the bot's Docker computer, computer use on
macOS / Linux X11 / Wayland, AnyBot's browser with a full DevTools-based
toolset, the encrypted vault, pinned grid and sidebar sections, Markdown
with Mermaid diagrams, phone access through the relay, and the Linux
build and test scripts.
