## Summary
- remove synthetic preview runtime and configuration data so profiles
show only real agent content
- simplify model settings to the effective values and restore bare
section icons
- make owned-agent profiles resolve to the same current persona instance
from every entry point
## Why
Agent profiles opened from DMs or channels could fall back to a partial
declared-owner view instead of the full managed-agent profile shown on
the Agents page. Test preview content and configuration provenance also
remained visible after the redesign.
## User impact
Owned agent profiles now expose the same actions, runtime, channels,
memories, and configuration regardless of where they are opened.
Profiles no longer synthesize preview data, and model settings use the
same simple title/value hierarchy as the rest of the panel.
## Validation
- `pnpm --dir desktop check`
- `pnpm --dir desktop build:e2e`
- focused unit tests: 10 passed
- profile entry-point integration tests: 2 passed
- configuration screenshot suite: 7 passed, with six visually distinct
captures
Snapshots are attached in a PR comment.

## Summary
- replace the desktop's global kind-20001 presence subscription with one
author-filtered subscription derived from active TanStack presence
queries
- reconcile changing demand without a delivery gap: promote only after
relay EOSE, keep the last confirmed subscription on failure, discard
stale opens, and close entirely when demand is empty
- preserve REST presence as the initial seed and TTL/crash-recovery
backstop
- add transport-seam and lifecycle tests for readiness, normalization,
churn, retries, close failures, reconnect ownership assumptions, and
disposal
## Why
The desktop currently receives presence heartbeats from every identity
on the relay. A live tap measured roughly 2,700 events/minute (45/sec),
about 1 MB/minute and 71.5% of readable traffic, from approximately
1,300 distinct fleet identities. Most are discarded only after
WebSocket, Tauri IPC, and JS parsing.
This change applies normal Nostr author filtering at relay fan-out,
before those costs. It deliberately does not introduce a relay digest
protocol or client-side event batching; relevant-author traffic should
be small after scoping, and the existing signed-delta/REST-TTL model
remains intact.
## Correctness model
- active query observers are the demand source; inactive cached queries
retain no authors
- replacement opens before old closes and is promoted only after EOSE
- timeout/CLOSED rejects and closes the candidate while preserving the
last good subscription
- rapid A→B→C and A→B→A churn cannot unseat current A with stale B
- empty demand never sends an unfiltered subscription
- RelayClient continues to own reconnect replay; the reconciler does not
duplicate subscriptions on reconnect
## Validation
Exact pushed head: `8845093aec0330be16efe52d3459ff67f1000ff4`
Pre-push hooks passed:
- desktop check and file-size ratchet
- desktop TypeScript
- desktop unit suite: 4,791/4,791
- branch-skew check
Focused lifecycle/transport suite: 34/34 passed before commit.
Independent Royal Court review found and blocked two prototype flaws
(timeout-as-success and starvation-prone trailing debounce); both were
fixed and the final worktree was cleared with no remaining correctness
or lifecycle blockers.

**Category:** new-feature
**User Impact:** Users can keep a distinct Appearance scheme for each
community and restore it on another desktop signed in with the same
identity.
**Problem:** A single global theme makes it harder to distinguish among
communities, and local-only preferences do not follow a user to another
device. **Solution:** Save each community's stable theme, accent, and
system-following selection as private encrypted relay state, backed by a
responsive local cache and guarded against switch races, invalid future
records, and relay failures.

<summary>File changes</summary>
**desktop/src/app/App.tsx**
Mounts the community-scoped theme controller inside the active community
lifecycle.
**desktop/src/features/settings/lib/appearanceScopeCopy.test.mjs**
Covers active-community and fallback labels used to explain Appearance
scope.
**desktop/src/features/settings/lib/appearanceScopeCopy.ts**
Builds a safe, trimmed label for the currently active community.
**desktop/src/features/settings/ui/SettingsPanels.tsx**
Clarifies which Appearance controls are per-community and which apply
globally when multiple communities exist.
**desktop/src/shared/constants/kinds.ts**
Defines the NIP-78 application-data event kind used for theme
preferences.
**desktop/src/shared/theme/CommunityThemeController.tsx**
Coordinates cached appearance, encrypted relay retrieval, live updates,
reconnect behavior, and safe community switching.
**desktop/src/shared/theme/ThemeProvider.tsx**
Exposes a single appearance application path so synchronized preferences
use the existing renderer and persistence behavior.
**desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemePreference.test.mjs**
Covers contract validation, user/relay isolation, malformed records,
cache failures, and switch-race decisions.
**desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemePreference.ts**
Defines the versioned stable preference contract, safe defaults, local
cache keys, and persistence guards.
**desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemeSync.test.mjs**
Covers relay absence, unreadable records, unavailability, seeding
safety, and teardown of pending writes.
**desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemeSync.ts**
Encrypts theme preferences to the user, publishes and retrieves NIP-78
state, and handles ordering and lifecycle safety.

### Reproduction steps
1. Join at least two communities and open **Settings → Appearance**.
2. Choose a different theme, accent, or system-following mode in each
community.
3. Switch between the communities and verify each one restores its own
scheme without overwriting the other.
4. Sign in on another desktop with the same Nostr identity, join the
same community, and verify its saved scheme is restored from that
community's relay.
5. Disconnect the relay, change Appearance, and verify the UI remains
responsive and the local fallback is retained.

## Summary
- adopt the finalized NIP-MP project model so one project can enumerate
and switch between multiple NIP-34 repositories
- add project and repository navigation, activity summaries,
existing-repository attachment, and repository access-channel management
- preserve privacy-safe activation provenance for agent-authored
patches, pull requests, issues, and associated commits
## Test plan
- [x] Run desktop typecheck and unit tests
- [x] Run focused NIP-MP, repository access, and provenance tests
- [x] Run Rust formatting and desktop lint checks
- [x] Run the complete pre-push suite after merging current `main`
- [ ] Manually verify project creation, repository attachment,
switching, and access repair on staging
- [ ] Manually verify public-channel and private-agent origin labels on
newly created Git activity
