VARUA Remote Control

Release notes

VARUA Remote Control connects ChatGPT to computers explicitly paired with the user's VARUA Remote Control account through outbound authenticated agents. Initial capabilities: - Device discovery and health. - Authorized filesystem stat/list/read/search with line-window/tail reads and content hashes. - Bounded multi-file reads with optional per-file byte/line/tail ranges that reduce tool-call chatter while isolating per-file failures. - Hash-guarded exact text patching with stale-file/occurrence preconditions and fail-closed replacement, plus transactional multi-file patching that validates every target before mutation and attempts rollback if a commit step fails. - Git-aware resumable filename/content search with literal/regex matching, globs, context, cancellation and long-poll result reads. - Separately approved filesystem create/write/move/copy/remove operations, including create-only/must-exist/hash guards for writes, source guards for moves, no-overwrite copies, and explicit recursive removal. - Process listing and inspection without command lines or environment values. - Separately approved bounded process execution. - Managed long-running processes that survive transient agent↔gateway reconnects, support strict retry-safe idempotency keys without double-metering proven retries, and retain bounded replayable output/status for up to one hour after completion, subject to bounded manager capacity. - Quota-neutral `process_status` and `process_wait` controls report completion/exit state without consuming stdout/stderr cursors, so agents can wait cheaply and fetch logs only when useful. - Detached `process_run_many` batches launch up to 16 independent commands with bounded concurrency, expose stable child handles, support retry-safe idempotency, and keep batch status/wait/stop controls quota-neutral. - Long-poll process/search/terminal reads that eliminate shell `sleep` polling, with bounded replay cursors/tail reads so output can be recovered after stream failures. - One-call terminal interaction for REPL/shell workflows. - Quota-neutral discovery, health, recovery, wait and lifecycle control; actual user work is metered. - Privacy-safe recent activity recovery, generic work-context recovery with optional version-control metadata, and unmetered account-usage introspection. - Dashboard logical-activity grouping collapses managed job/search lifecycle chatter while keeping raw protocol-call totals visible. - Separately approved persistent shell sessions and resumable search sessions that survive transient gateway reconnects; exited terminal state is retained for up to one hour for recovery, subject to bounded manager capacity. - Usage metering and audit metadata. - OAuth 2.1 resource-server authentication with per-tool read/write/execute scopes. - Stable linked-profile identification for multi-account connections. - Ed25519 device identity and one-time device pairing. Pairing credentials are intentionally handled outside the public MCP tool surface through the VARUA Remote Control browser/native pairing workflow, so ChatGPT never needs to receive a device pairing secret. No embedded ChatGPT UI is included in the initial submission; the control-plane dashboard is hosted externally.

Declared in the saved package. Remote tools may change independently.
