fix(mobile): subagents on a switched-off environment no longer open a new thread - #34035
A subagent delegated to another environment opens a new-thread draft instead of its thread when that environment is saved on the client but switched off. Repro on Android: save two environments, delegate a task from one to the other, switch the delegate target off in Settings → Environments, open the parent thread, open Agents and tap the subagent. You get "Opening thread…" and then "Choose project". The row also shows a chevron, as if it can open.
Cause and fix
subagentThreadTarget made a remote subagent openable whenever its environment was saved (presentationById.has), not whether it was enabled. The Thread route for a switched-off environment then sees no connection attempt, so threadRouteOpensDraft replaces the route with a draft. With nothing loaded from that environment, the draft has no project.
subagentThreadTarget(subagent, environmentId, environments)
if childThreadId: open it here
- if remoteChild and its environment is saved: open it there+ if remoteChild and its environment is saved and enabled: open it there
else: not openable (no chevron, no tap)
A row whose environment is switched off now behaves like one whose environment isn't saved at all. Its hint says to turn it on in Settings instead of "Connect to it".
Mobile: the Agents sheet and the inline subagent group both go through subagentThreadTarget.
Web:RemoteSubagentRow and the reverse DelegatedFromRow in ThreadRelationshipsControl gated on environment === null only. Both now also require entry.enabled. Mobile's "Subagent of …" header is text, not a link, so it needed nothing.
Scope and approval
This is a small, focused fix for an obvious bug: a tappable row that leads to an unrelated new-thread screen. It changes only when the existing open action is offered, and adds no new behavior.
Evidence
Android 16 emulator on main (5be6bc99). The parent environment is connected, and the delegate target is saved but switched off. Transcript text and project paths are blurred because the test data is my real delegation thread. Gray circles mark taps.
Before: the row shows a chevron. Tapping it shows "Opening thread…", then lands on "Choose project".
After: no chevron, and tapping the row does nothing.
Switched back on, the chevron returns and the row opens again:
threadAgentsPresentation.test.ts adds subagentThreadTarget cases: an enabled saved environment opens the remote thread, while a disabled or unknown one returns null. The gate moved from each caller's inline presentationById.has predicate into this function, so on main the bug was in the callers, not this function. The before GIF is the proof on main. I didn't run web in a browser; its change is the same entry.enabled check.
vp run check:changed passes.
Merge Danger
Door: two-way. It changes no data or contracts, and a revert restores the old behavior.
Blast Radius: small. It touches the open action and hint on remote subagent rows (mobile and web) and the delegated-from row (web). Local child threads, stopping agents and status display are unchanged.
Fixed by Claude Opus 5.5 in Claude Code (T3 Code).
Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Mobile and web agent links now respect whether a linked environment is enabled. This is a narrow navigation guard, with local child-thread navigation unchanged and no changes to stored settings or agent execution.

Mobile and web linked-thread navigation now requires the target environment to be enabled. Mobile local child-thread resolution remains unchanged. Web controls block opening when the environment is missing or disabled, and their hints describe the environment state.

Summary
Mobile target resolution apps/mobile/src/features/threads/threadAgentsPresentation.ts, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/ThreadAgentsSheet.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/thread-subagent-group.tsx, apps/mobile/src/features/threads/threadAgentsPresentation.test.ts
subagentThreadTarget now resolves remote child threads only when the target environment is saved and enabled. Its callers pass the environment map. Tests cover enabled, disabled, and missing environments. Local child-thread resolution is unchanged.
Web linked-thread controls apps/web/src/components/chat/ThreadRelationshipsControl.tsx, apps/web/src/components/chat/ThreadRelationshipsControl.remote-parent.browser.test.tsx
Remote subagent and delegated-parent controls now block navigation when the target environment is missing or disabled. Tooltip hints distinguish these states and describe the destination when navigation is enabled. The browser test mock now includes the enabled state.
Remote subagent rows on a switched-off environment no longer open a new-thread draft. Two minor gaps remain. Sighted and touch users get no visible instruction for turning the environment back on. A parent-thread read already in flight could still navigate to the environment if it is disabled during the read. Both are low impact and can be fixed or deferred.

Explanation
The title names the main change: subagents on a switched-off environment no longer open a new thread. The changeset gates remote subagent navigation on the environment's enabled flag in mobile and web code, which matches the title. The title uses the conventional commit format and is specific.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description follows the repository template. It has Problem, Change, Scope, and Verification sections, plus a Merge Danger block. The Problem section gives reproduction steps and expected behavior. The Change section explains the fix and why mobile and web both need it. The Scope section justifies the fix as a small bug fix with no linked issue, which the template allows. The Verification section lists a focused unit test, a passing repo check, Android emulator before and after evidence, and states that web was not run in a browser. The author also notes that the change is untested in a browser on web. The template calls for a model and harness line, and the description includes one.

Not changing this here. A row whose environment isn't saved at all already explains itself only through this tooltip, and this PR keeps that pattern for a switched-off environment. Showing the explanation inline on touch devices would be a new design for relationship rows, which belongs in its own change.
@coderabbitai re: the outside-diff comment on ThreadAgentsSheet.tsx:158 (show the recovery instruction in the row): not changing this in this PR. A remote subagent whose environment isn't saved already shows only the environment name, with the instruction in accessibilityHint. A switched-off environment now follows the same pattern. Adding visible recovery text to SubagentRow is a new UI design for the row and would belong in its own change.
@bitmvk Understood. The switched-off environment follows the existing pattern: the recovery instruction is in accessibilityHint, not visible text. I won’t ask for a row design change in this PR.
Would you like me to open a follow-up issue for visible recovery text?

Re-check the environment's enabled state before navigating to the parent.
openParent checks canOpen only before the readParent await. The post-await guard compares only router.latestLocation. If the environment is disabled from the same route while the read is pending, and the read then succeeds, the parent navigation still runs. The thread then opens on a disabled environment, which the change is meant to prevent.
Read the current enabled state after the await, not the render-time canOpen value captured by the closure. Do not navigate when the environment is disabled.
