chore(release): v3.21.0 — TUI cleanup + client-tools/ToS docs + promotion plan (#145)

* refactor(tui): dead-code / footgun cleanup (A1/A2/A3)

ALIGNMENT.md Rule 2: infra-only, no new cli.js wire behavior.
No protocol, no endpoint, no credential changes.

A1 (session.mjs): delete resolveTuiEntrypointEnv() and its call site
+ the redundant env-strip block around the spawnSync call. The function
mutated a {env} object passed to spawnSync (tmux itself), but tmux does
NOT forward that env to the pane; the pane's claude gets its env ONLY
from the `env` prefix string built inside buildTuiCmd (verified live
2026-06-01). The spawnSync {env} is intentionally minimal now; only
env.HOME is retained (tmux binary reads it). All claude-specific vars
go via the buildTuiCmd prefix string, unchanged. Tests for the now-
deleted function removed; test count drops by 7 (expected).

A2 (transcript.mjs): delete encodeCwd() and transcriptPath() exports.
Production resolves transcripts exclusively via findTranscriptPath()
(glob by session-id); these two helpers carried a fragile path-encoding
rule used only by their own tests. grep confirms zero non-test importers.
Added a TODO comment near findTranscriptPath() noting a CI fixture-
contract test would make claude-schema drift fail loudly. Tests removed;
count drops by 2.

A3 (session.mjs + README): remove the CLAUDE_SKIP_PERMISSIONS branch
that pushed --dangerously-skip-permissions when OCP_TUI_FULL_TOOLS=1.
OCP_TUI_FULL_TOOLS=1 now always takes the --allowedTools path. Rationale:
claude v2.1.x shows an interactive bypass-acceptance screen that a
headless tmux TUI cannot answer — bricks the turn (tui_paste_not_landed
/ wallclock cap), not recoverable without a human. The working path is
--allowedTools + scratch-home settings.json additionalDirectories.
README OCP_TUI_FULL_TOOLS row updated to document the removal and the
correct alternative; CLAUDE_SKIP_PERMISSIONS row for the -p path is
unchanged (still used in server.mjs). Test updated: skip-permissions
case replaced with an assertion that --dangerously-skip-permissions is
absent from the full-tools command.

* docs: client-tools boundary, ToS honesty, promotion plan (B1/B2/B3)

ALIGNMENT.md Rule 2: docs-only, no new cli.js wire behavior.
No protocol, endpoint, or credential changes.

B1 (README): add 'Client-tools boundary' subsection under 'How It
Works'. Documents that OCP is a text-prompt bridge only — it does not
pass OpenAI tools/functions or Anthropic tool_use blocks to the client.
Clients receive assistant TEXT only; client-local tool execution is
not supported by design (bypassing cli.js = out of scope per
ALIGNMENT.md).

B2 (README): two updates to 'Why OCP?' and the LAN-sharing section.
(a) New bullet: OCP drives the official claude CLI as-is — no OAuth
token extraction, no binary patching, no protocol invention — so
traffic looks like genuine Claude Code (cc_entrypoint=cli).
(b) LAN-sharing paragraph strengthened: pooling one Claude subscription
across multiple distinct people may violate Anthropic's Consumer ToS
and risk account suspension by the abuse classifier. The defensible
framing is 'one person, your own devices'; friends/team sharing is
not. Replaces the softer 'account terms are your call' language.
Feature and auth-mode docs are unchanged.

B3 (docs/PROMOTION.md): new promotion strategy doc. Covers: goal
(polish + low-key OSS visibility, NOT growth-hacking given the live
ToS/billing risk), pre-requisites (stability first), honest ToS
disclosure requirement, items explicitly skipped (multi-backend
routing, gateway model-discovery — delegated to OLP; raw API
passthrough — ALIGNMENT.md scope), TUI toggle as billing-split
insurance, and low-key visibility actions. Framed as a recommendation
for the maintainer to review, not a committed plan.

* chore(release): v3.21.0 — TUI cleanup + docs honesty + promotion plan

ALIGNMENT.md Rule 2: release prep; no new cli.js wire behavior.

Bump version 3.20.1 → 3.21.0. CHANGELOG entry covers:
- A1/A2/A3 TUI dead-code removals (inert entrypoint-env path,
  test-only transcript helpers, headless-unusable skip-permissions)
- B1/B2/B3 docs (client-tools boundary, ToS honesty, Why-OCP posture,
  promotion plan)
- Previously-shipped v3.20.x items documented for completeness:
  spawn-home isolation, bounded concurrency queue + 429, ocp restart,
  ocp-plugin OpenClaw compat.

# OCP Promotion Strategy — "Stable & Visible"
> **This document is a recommendation for the maintainer to review and adjust, not a committed plan.**
> It reflects the project's current posture (post-v3.21.0) and should be revisited whenever
> the Anthropic billing / ToS environment changes significantly.
---
## 1. Goal: Polish + Low-Key OSS Visibility
The goal is **stability and quiet discoverability**, not growth-hacking. OCP is a personal power tool
that has been open-sourced because others can benefit from it. The right audience finds it via GitHub
search, issue threads in related projects, and word of mouth — not viral posts.
**Explicitly avoid:**
- HN / Reddit front-page pushes, influencer outreach, or any campaign that would attract a large
influx of users before the ToS/billing situation has settled. Anthropic is actively tightening
billing and enforcement on subscription-sharing (the June-15 Agent-SDK billing split is
*paused*, not cancelled — and consumer-ToS enforcement on multi-person sharing is a live risk).
A high-traffic spotlight right now would draw scrutiny that a low-profile project avoids.
- Promising features that require bypassing the `claude` CLI (raw API calls, OAuth extraction, etc.)
— that would violate `ALIGNMENT.md` and the ToS simultaneously.
---
## 2. Pre-Requisite: Stability First
Do not promote until the house is in order:
- [x] The concurrency / latency perf fixes are shipped (v3.20.xv3.21.0).
- [x] Docs honesty is complete (client-tools boundary, ToS sharing disclosure, this doc).
- [ ] The June-15 Agent-SDK billing split is either confirmed cancelled or OCP has a confirmed
stable path (TUI toggle as insurance — see §5 below).
Promoting a project that has known rough edges in docs or stability only generates support burden
and negative first impressions.
---
## 3. Honest ToS Disclosure on Sharing
Any promotion materials must carry the same disclosure as `README.md § "Deployment model & security"`:
> Pooling a single Claude subscription across **multiple distinct people** may violate Anthropic's
> Consumer Terms of Service and risk account suspension. The defensible framing is "one person,
> your own devices". Friends/team sharing is not.
This framing should appear in any README badge, linked blog post, or issue comment that mentions
LAN sharing. It is not a disclaimer that discourages usage — it is honest positioning that protects
both the project and its users.
---
## 4. What to Explicitly Skip
These items are **not gaps in OCP** — they are deliberate stance decisions:
- **Multi-backend routing** (routing to OpenAI, Gemini, Llama, etc.) — that is the sibling [OLP
project](https://github.com/dtzp555-max/olp)'s role. OCP stays Claude-only by design.
- **Gateway model-discovery** (auto-detecting which models a remote server offers) — not needed
for OCP's single-provider, single-subscription model. `models.json` is the SPOT.
- **Raw Anthropic API passthrough** (bypassing the `claude` CLI) — out of scope per `ALIGNMENT.md`.
Do not add these to OCP roadmaps or respond to feature requests for them with "planned" — the
correct answer is "that's OLP territory" or "out of scope per ALIGNMENT.md".
---
## 5. TUI Toggle as Insurance
The `CLAUDE_TUI_MODE` opt-in is the primary mitigation if the June-15 billing split reactivates
and makes the default `-p` path draw from the metered Agent SDK credit pool.
Keep the TUI toggle:
- Functional and tested across the three deployment hosts.
- Documented in the README, including the security constraints (single-user only).
- Easily discoverable for users who get unexpectedly metered.
If the split reactivates, the recommended operator path is: set `CLAUDE_TUI_MODE=true` +
`CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` → credential-isolated scratch home → subscription pool. That path is
already shipped and documented.
---
## 6. Low-Key Visibility Actions (when §2 pre-requisites are met)
- Keep the GitHub README polished and honest — it is the primary landing page.
- Respond promptly to issues and PRs — the project's reputation is built on reliability, not
marketing.
- Add OCP to the `awesome-claude` / `awesome-llm-tools` lists if they exist and allow self-PRs
— low-effort, targeted, reaches the right audience.
- When related projects (Cline, OpenCode, OpenClaw, Continue.dev) post about local Claude proxies,
a short factual comment linking to OCP is appropriate — not spam.
- Maintain the `CHANGELOG.md` with clear, honest summaries — users who are already running OCP
are the best vector for word-of-mouth.
