Reworked onto current dev (post constrained-CA landing in the merge train).
The picker CA signing key is process-scoped: generated in-process, only the
public ca.pem and leaf.pem are published, and any legacy ca.key is dropped on
every ensurePickerCa call. Publication is stamped with a ca-owner.json {pid,
sha256} under a ca.lock.sqlite lifecycle lease, so a live foreign owner's CA
is left untouched and only reclaimed after the owner exits.
Restart handling: the lifecycle captures the outgoing published certificate,
untrusts it from a private 0600 copy when it genuinely differs from this
process's authority, keeps the applied Desktop profile row as durable
evidence, refuses to arm the picker when the predecessor cannot be
untrusted, and re-runs the controller enable flow so a rotated authority is
re-trusted and the selection restored.
Trust hardening: trustPickerCa installs from a private 0600 copy of the
caller-verified PEM rather than the shared, swap-prone ca.pem; picker status
responses carry the server's caSha256 and the CLI fails closed
("ca_unverified") unless the file fingerprint matches the authority the
running server owns; a malformed published certificate is treated as
unidentifiable so startup proceeds.
Docs: guides (en + 7 translations) and the SSOT structure doc now describe
per-restart re-trust.
Tests: picker CA/runtime/trust and desktop CLI suites cover the ephemeral
authority, ownership, rotation and verification behavior. On Windows each
lifecycle-lock acquisition is a PowerShell SID lookup, so the two restart
tests use the sibling test's 30s timeout and longer settle loop.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to After a restart where the old certificate cannot be untrusted, or where the picker port is busy, Claude Desktop can lose all network access while OpenCodex runs. CA publication can also race across processes. Fix these before merging. Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟠 High · up to The new design keeps signing keys out of shared files and verifies certificates before trusting them. However, an interrupted or failed certificate replacement can leave an older certificate trusted without a reliable way to find and remove it. Starting a second process can also revoke trust needed by a picker that is still running. Retained concerns

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
The undefined lock sentinel cannot tell "lock refused" from "callback returned void". Every publish runs again without the lock.
withClientLifecycleSync returns whatever the callback returns (src/client/lifecycle-lock.ts:109-129). Both callbacks return void:
republishUnlessForeignOwned(Lines 116-123)publish(Line 134)
So underPickerCaLock(...) returns undefined even after the locked call succeeds. The === undefined checks at Line 124 and Line 135 are then always true, so each call runs a second time outside the lock.
Consequences:
- Cached path (Line 125). The unlocked re-run repeats the read →
foreignLiveOwner→publishAuthoritysequence with no lock. This is the exact interleaving the lock should prevent (see the JSDoc at Lines 82-86). A peer can publish between the locked run and the unlocked run. The unlocked run then decides against a stale read. - Fresh path (Line 135).
publishAuthorityalways runs twice. The second write is not locked. It can overwrite a peer's certificate that was published in the gap. - Hidden errors. The
catchalso turns exceptions thrown insidecheck(for example anEACCESfrompublishPem) into "lock refused". The unlocked fallback then retries and may throw a different error.
The tests pass because a repeated publish is idempotent when only one process runs.
Fix: make the callbacks return a value. Separate lock failure from callback failure.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
The temporary copy is created outside the try/finally. A failed write leaks the directory and throws instead of returning a result.
mkdtempSync (Line 96) and writeFileSync (Line 98) run before the try at Line 100. If writeFileSync throws (disk full, or tmpdir quota), two things happen:
privateDirstays on disk, because thefinallyat Lines 109-111 has not been entered yet.trustPickerCathrows instead of returning{ ok: false, reason: "declined_or_failed" }. The unchangedcatchat Line 107 promises that result shape.
enableLocked catches the exception, but reports it as profile_failed instead of a trust failure.
Fix: move the temporary-copy setup into the guarded block.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
If the picker is blocked or fails to bind, the applied profile still points Desktop at an egress proxy that does not exist. All Desktop traffic then fails, not only the picker.
The applied profile is kept on purpose (Lines 188-195). Its only field is egressProxyUrl = http://127.0.0.1:<pickerPort>. Desktop sends all of its traffic through that proxy (see the structure/clients/claude-desktop.md picker section).
Two new paths leave the picker proxy unbound while the profile stays selected:
- Blocked picker (Lines 230-235). If
untrustPickerCafails for the predecessor,picker = null. Theif (picker)block at Line 246 is skipped, sostartProxy(claudePickerProxyPort(...))never runs. The port stays free, so every Desktop connection is refused. The user sees⚠ Claude Desktop picker disabled, but Desktop has no network while OpenCodex is running. - Bind failure (Lines 271-278). The port is held by another process, so Desktop's traffic reaches that process.
Also, controller stays null in both cases. ocx claude desktop picker status shows the offline status and does not say that Desktop is pinned to a dead proxy.
The docs claim that "a failed removal stops the picker arming" and that "a picker proxy bind failure only disables picker mode". In both cases the result is broader: Desktop has no network.
Fix option for path 1: separate "picker terminator allowed" from "egress proxy bound". When pickerBlocked is true, still bind the picker CONNECT proxy. Give it a selectTunnel that keeps the non-browser intercept branch and returns { kind: "blind" } for browser CONNECTs. Desktop keeps connectivity, and claude.ai is never terminated by an untrusted-predecessor setup.
Fix option for path 2: the port is not ours, so log a warning that names the retained profile row. Tell the user to run ocx claude desktop picker off to restore Desktop connectivity.
Sketch for the blocked case
- picker = pickerBlocked ? null : (options.createPicker ?? createPickerRuntime)({
+ picker = pickerBlocked ? null : (options.createPicker ?? createPickerRuntime)({

if (!isBrowserConnect(request)) { ... }
- return runtime.selectTunnel(host, port);
+ return runtime ? runtime.selectTunnel(host, port) : { kind: "blind" };
},
});Add a test: set up an applied profile, then make remove-trusted-cert fail. Assert that the picker port still accepts a browser-UA CONNECT example.com:443 with a blind 200.

Merge train round 3 B9: ephemeral picker CA key (#6072) and round outcome

Landed on |
Carried from lidge-jun#6072 into merge train round 3. Co-authored-by: luvs01 <27862058+luvs01@users.noreply.github.com>
Follow-up to lidge-jun#6072 from its review. The legacy claude-picker/ca.key was removed only when picker code ran, so an upgrade with the picker or intercept off kept the old signing key of a CA that may still be trusted. startClaudeIntercept now removes it first on every start and never fails startup over it. The underPickerCaLock comment now says what the lock fallback does: a fresh authority publishes without the lock and the displaced peer defers to the new owner record.
