## Summary - retry an ephemeral port when an automatic listener receives Windows `EACCES` - keep explicitly configured ports strict - keep non-Windows `EACCES` behavior unchanged ## Context CodeNomad already treats 9898 and 9899 as preferred rather than mandatory ports. The fallback previously handled only `EADDRINUSE`, so a Windows port reservation could terminate Tauri startup before the operating system was asked for an available port. The specific WinNAT attribution in the issue remains unverified, but the observable startup failure is fixed regardless of which Windows reservation produced `EACCES`. ## Validation - focused listener retry test passes - server typecheck passes - server suite: 256 passed, 4 skipped, 1 pre-existing Windows-only `git-worktrees.test.ts` fixture failure - autonomous gatekeeper review will be published as a PR comment after opening Fixes #627 |

Getting Started
🖥️ Desktop App
Available as both Electron and Tauri builds — choose based on your preference.
Download the latest installer for your platform from Releases.
| Platform | Formats |
|---|---|
| macOS | DMG, ZIP (Universal: Intel + Apple Silicon) |
| Windows | NSIS Installer, ZIP (x64, ARM64) |
| Linux | Tauri deb, Electron portable tar.gz (x64) |
The Tauri deb is currently built and installation-tested on Ubuntu 24.04. Compatibility with older Debian-based distributions is not yet guaranteed.
💻 CodeNomad Server
Run as a local server and access via browser. Perfect for remote development.
npx @neuralnomads/codenomad --password <your-password> --launch
Authentication required: The server requires a password on first run. You can pass it via
--password, theCODENOMAD_SERVER_PASSWORDenvironment variable, or create anauth.jsonfile (see Server Documentation).
Self-signed certificate: On first launch with HTTPS enabled (the default), your browser will show a "Your connection is not private" warning. This is expected — the server generates a local self-signed certificate automatically. Click Advanced → Proceed to localhost to continue. For local-only use without the warning, run with
--https=false --http=true.
See Server Documentation for flags, TLS, auth, and remote access.
🧪 Dev Releases
Bleeding-edge builds from the dev branch:
npx @neuralnomads/codenomad-dev --password <your-password> --launch
SideCars
SideCars let you open local web tools inside CodeNomad as tabs.
Configuration
- Name: Display name used in CodeNomad
- Port: Local HTTP or HTTPS service running on
127.0.0.1:<port> - Base path: Mounted under
/sidecars/:id - Prefix mode:
- Preserve prefix forwards the full
/sidecars/:id/...path upstream - Strip prefix removes
/sidecars/:idbefore forwarding the request upstream
- Preserve prefix forwards the full
VSCode (OpenVSCode Server)
Run with Docker:
docker run -it --init -p 8000:3000 -v "${HOME}:${HOME}:cached" -e HOME=${HOME} gitpod/openvscode-server --server-base-path /sidecars/vscode
Add SideCar as:
- Name:
VSCode - Port:
http://127.0.0.1:8000 - Base path:
/sidecars/vscode - Prefix mode:
Preserve prefix
Terminal (ttyd)
Run with:
ttyd --writable zsh
Add SideCar as:
- Name:
Terminal - Port:
http://127.0.0.1:7681 - Base path:
/sidecars/terminal - Prefix mode:
Strip prefix
Requirements
- OpenCode CLI — must be installed and in your
PATH - Node.js 18+ — for server mode or building from source
Development
CodeNomad is a monorepo built with:
| Package | Description |
|---|---|
| packages/server | Core logic & CLI — workspaces, OpenCode proxy, API, auth, speech |
| packages/ui | SolidJS frontend — reactive, fast, beautiful |
| packages/electron-app | Desktop shell — process management, IPC, native dialogs |
| packages/tauri-app | Tauri desktop shell (experimental) |
Quick Start
git clone https://github.com/NeuralNomadsAI/CodeNomad.git
cd CodeNomad
npm install
npm run dev
Troubleshooting
macOS: "CodeNomad.app is damaged and can't be opened"
Gatekeeper flag due to missing notarization. Clear the quarantine attribute:
xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/CodeNomad.app
On Intel Macs, also check System Settings → Privacy & Security on first launch.
Linux (Wayland + NVIDIA): Tauri App closes immediately
WebKitGTK DMA-BUF/GBM issue. Run with:
WEBKIT_DISABLE_DMABUF_RENDERER=1 codenomad-tauri
See full workaround in the original README.
