Documents the exact OS (Ubuntu 24.04, code-server 4.112.0, the Adom-Workspace distro), explains how setup differs from Adom cloud containers (setup-steps NOT bootstrap.sh), what bridges are available, and how to use the relay. Trigger on startup, adom-cli errors, bridge commands, screenshot requests, container-platform questions, code-server / VS Code extension issues, or when the AI needs concrete facts about its environment instead of guessing.--# Hydrogen Desktop Workspace (WSL2)--WSL2-runtime version (default). Legacy Docker container runtime (`HD_RUNTIME=docker`) is in the docker/ bucket.--You are running inside the **`Adom-Workspace` WSL2 distro** managed by Hydrogen Desktop (HD). HD is the flagship Adom desktop app — it manages your WSL2 workspace, bridges to desktop apps, and provides VS Code + Claude Code.--## The workspace — exact facts (don't guess)--| Field | Value |-|-------|-------|-| Distro name | `Adom-Workspace` (fixed — there is no random container suffix) |-| Imported from | golden image `adom-golden.tar.gz` (full pre-baked image) via `wsl --import` |-| Base | Ubuntu 24.04 |-| Architecture | matches host (`dpkg --print-architecture`) — almost always `linux-x64` on Windows hosts, can be `linux-arm64` on Apple Silicon hosts |-| code-server | 4.112.0 (pinned via setup step) |-| code-server binary | `/usr/lib/code-server/bin/code-server` |-| Extensions dir | `~/.local/share/code-server/extensions/` |-| Settings | `~/.local/share/code-server/User/settings.json` |-| Distro default user | `adom` (`wsl.conf [user] default=adom`) — in-distro exec via `wsl -d Adom-Workspace -u adom --`; root via `-u root` |-| Work user | `adom` (UID 1001, passwordless sudo, home `/home/adom`) |-| Workspace | `/home/adom/project` (lives directly in the distro's ext4 filesystem) |-| Pre-installed | Node 18 + npm, Python 3.12, git, gh, curl, wget, jq, build-essential, cmake, pkg-config, libssl-dev |-| Code-server runs as | `code-server --bind-addr 0.0.0.0:7380 --auth none --disable-telemetry /home/adom/project` (WSL2 auto-forwards 7380 to Windows `localhost:7380`) |-| Runtime source | `hydrogen-desktop/src-tauri/crates/hd-app/src/runtime/wsl.rs` (selector `runtime/mod.rs::select_runtime()`) |--If you ever need to confirm: `cat /etc/os-release`, `uname -m`, `/usr/lib/code-server/bin/code-server --version`. Don't speculate about alpine/arm64 — Ubuntu 24.04 matches the cloud container.--## Setup is via HD's setup-steps, NOT gallia bootstrap.sh--HD provisions this distro through its own **setup-steps** flow (Rust code in `hydrogen-desktop/src-tauri/crates/hd-app/src/setup_steps_wsl.rs`, with the runtime mechanics in `hydrogen-desktop/src-tauri/crates/hd-app/src/runtime/wsl.rs`), shown as the "Install Tools" panel in the HD UI. It is a **different code path** than cloud containers, which run `gallia/scripts/bootstrap.sh`.--The WSL cascade is **28 steps** (state file `setup-steps-wsl.json`) vs the legacy Docker flow's 24. Most tooling is NOT installed by a step — it's BAKED into `adom-golden.tar.gz` at image-build time (gallia, the 8 Adom CLIs, the Claude Code extension, code-server, VS Code settings, and all `hd-*` skills). The one exception is the `claude` CLI, which is installed at RUNTIME by step 13 `install-claude-cli` (its self-setup needs a live session). The Docker `pull-image` / `create-container` / `start-container` steps are collapsed into a single step 1, `ensure-workspace`, which runs `wsl --import` of `adom-golden.tar.gz` if the distro isn't already registered. The relay is started by the `start-relay` step. See `hd-golden-image`.--When debugging install issues here, the source of truth is `setup_steps_wsl.rs` (and `runtime/wsl.rs`) — its step IDs (`ensure-workspace`, `install-adom-vscode`, `set-env-vars`, `inject-api-key`, `start-relay`, `claude-auth`, etc.) map 1:1 to what ran on this distro. There is NO `install-claude-ext` / `install-claude-cli` / `install-gallia` / `write-vscode-settings` step anymore — those are baked. Do NOT chase bugs into `bootstrap.sh` first — that script lives in the baked image but HD itself never invokes it. (For the legacy Docker `setup_steps.rs` flow see the docker/ bucket.)--## VS Code extension caveats--- The Claude Code extension and `code-server` settings (including `extensions.autoUpdate: true` / `extensions.autoCheckUpdates: true`) are BAKED into the golden image — there is no `write-vscode-settings` or `install-claude-ext` setup step. Auto-update **must** stay on so every installed extension auto-updates from the marketplace; the image bakes it on. Do not regress this.-- Bare `code-server --install-extension <id>` (no version pin) historically resolves to the **universal** target-platform build. For some extensions (notably `anthropic.claude-code` after 2.1.89), Anthropic stopped shipping universal builds — so bare install permanently sticks at 2.1.89 even when newer `linux-x64` builds exist. The golden-image bake installs the latest `linux-x64` build pinned, so the workspace ships current. It also heals orphan `extensions.json` entries (entries pointing to deleted dirs cause a permanent "Invalid extensions detected" banner).-- Marketplace: code-server uses **Open VSX** (open-vsx.org), not Microsoft Marketplace. No `EXTENSIONS_GALLERY` env override is set; `product.json` has no gallery URL — it falls through to Open VSX defaults.--## adom-cli is authenticated--HD auto-injects the user's session token on every launch. To verify:-```bash-adom-cli carbon user get-```-If this returns user data, all adom-cli commands work (containers, repos, orgs, wiki, etc.). If it fails, the user needs to log in via HD's login page.--## Relay server is running--The adom-desktop relay runs on ports 8765 (WebSocket) / 8766 (HTTP) inside this distro. The `start-relay` setup step launches it.--Check health: `curl -sf http://127.0.0.1:8766/health`-Check desktop connection: `adom-desktop ping`--The Windows host control API is reachable from inside the distro at `127.0.0.1` — WSL2 mirrored networking shares loopback with the Windows host. The port is dynamic per launch, so read the live URL from `~/.adom/hd-control-url` (`http://127.0.0.1:<dynamic>`): `BASE="$(cat ~/.adom/hd-control-url)"; curl "$BASE/health"`.--## Available bridge commands (when desktop is connected)--### Screenshots (zero dialogs, instant)-```bash-adom-desktop desktop_screenshot_screen # full screen capture-adom-desktop desktop_screenshot_screen '{"maxWidth":1500}' # resized for Claude vision-adom-desktop desktop_screenshot_window '{"hwnd": N}' # capture specific window-adom-desktop desktop_list_windows # list all windows with HWNDs-```-Default to `maxWidth: 1500, format: "png"` for UI screenshots.
