+# Sliver AI Agentic Loop
+
+## Goal
+
+Port the example agentic loop from `examples/codex/codex-rs` into Sliver's AI chat so the server can:
+
+- run a multi-step Responses API turn
+- emit turn and item lifecycle events similar to Codex
+- persist reasoning and tool-call items for sync and restoration
+- keep those non-chat items out of the model context window
+- render the new items in the client TUI
+
+## How The Codex Example Loop Works
+
+The Codex example splits the loop into three layers.
+
+### 1. Provider/Protocol Layer
+
+The protocol layer receives raw model events such as:
+
+- turn started / completed / failed
+- reasoning deltas and completed reasoning items
+- command/tool begin and end notifications
+- assistant messages
+
+These provider events are fine-grained and often arrive as partial updates.
+
+### 2. Event Processor Layer
+
+`event_processor_with_jsonl_output.rs` converts the raw provider stream into a stable thread event model.
+
+The important behaviors are:
+
+- a turn gets a lifecycle: `turn.started`, then `turn.completed` or `turn.failed`
+- each logical item gets a stable id
+- begin/end pairs are folded into a single item lifecycle
+- reasoning is emitted as its own item type
+- tool calls and command executions are emitted as their own item types
+- active items can be updated in place before completion
+
+This is the key abstraction that makes the TUI and persisted history simple.
+
+### 3. TUI Layer
+
+The Codex TUI consumes those stable events rather than reloading the whole thread.
+
+That lets it:
+
+- append new items incrementally
+- update an existing in-flight item in place
+- keep the transcript stable while a turn runs
+- restore the same item types from stored history later
+
+## Sliver Port
+
+Sliver ports the same shape, adapted to its existing RPC and database model.
+
+### Conversation State
+
+`AIConversation` now stores:
+
+- `ActiveTurnID`
+- `TurnState`
+- `TargetSessionID`
+- `TargetBeaconID`
+
+The turn fields let clients restore "waiting", "completed", and "failed" state without inferring it from the last chat message.
+
+The target fields bind a conversation to the active session or beacon so server-side tools can default to the conversation target.
+
+### Message State
+
+`AIConversationMessage` now stores:
+
+- `Kind`: chat, reasoning, or tool call
+- `Visibility`: context or UI-only
+- `IncludeInContext`: whether the block should be replayed into the provider context window
+- `State`: in progress, completed, or failed
+- `TurnID`
+- `ItemID`
+- tool call metadata: name, arguments, result, error text, tool call id
+
+This keeps one ordered transcript table while still distinguishing chat context from UI-only telemetry.
+
+### UI-Only Persistence
+
+Reasoning, tool-call, and intermediate assistant chat items can be stored as normal conversation messages with `Visibility = UI_ONLY`.
+
+That gives Sliver:
+
+- cross-client sync through the existing conversation storage path
+- transcript restoration after reconnect or TUI restart
+- ordered replay of an entire turn, including intermediate items
+
+At the same time, the model context builder keys off `IncludeInContext`, so UI visibility and provider visibility are now independent.
+
+### Event Model
+
+Sliver now publishes `AIConversationEvent` payloads instead of raw `AIConversation` snapshots.
+
+Supported event types:
+
+- `CONVERSATION_UPDATED`
+- `CONVERSATION_DELETED`
+- `TURN_STARTED`
+- `TURN_COMPLETED`
+- `TURN_FAILED`
+- `MESSAGE_STARTED`
+- `MESSAGE_UPDATED`
+- `MESSAGE_COMPLETED`
+
+Each event can carry:
+
+- a conversation summary
+- a single message/item
+- the turn id
+- optional error text
+
+This mirrors the Codex pattern of stable turn and item lifecycle events.
+
+## Server Turn Flow
+
+For each new user message:
+
+1. The user chat message is saved as a normal context-visible chat item.
+2. The server resolves runtime provider/model settings.
+3. A new turn id is generated and persisted with `TURN_STARTED`.
+4. If the runtime supports the Responses API loop, Sliver runs the agentic loop.
+5. Reasoning items are persisted as completed UI-only reasoning blocks.
+6. Tool calls are persisted as in-progress UI-only tool blocks, executed locally, then updated in place to completed or failed.
+7. Intermediate assistant chat blocks on tool-use turns are persisted as UI-only chat items with `IncludeInContext = false`.
+8. Tool outputs are fed back into the Responses API with `previous_response_id`.
+9. When the model returns final assistant text, that assistant message is persisted as a normal context-visible chat item with `IncludeInContext = true`.
+10. The conversation turn state is cleared with `TURN_COMPLETED`.
+
+If anything fails:
+
+- a UI-only failed system message is persisted
+- the conversation is marked `TURN_FAILED`
+- the failure remains visible in the transcript without polluting future model context
+
+## Tool Surface
+
+The first port exposes a safe read-only tool set:
+
+- `list_sessions_and_beacons`
+- `fs_ls`
+- `fs_cat`
+- `fs_pwd`
+
+Why read-only first:
+
+- it proves the loop, storage, eventing, and TUI behavior
+- it avoids surprising destructive remote actions in the first server-side tool release
+
+Filesystem tools accept explicit `session_id` or `beacon_id`, but when omitted they fall back to the conversation target.
+
+Beacon-backed tools wait for task completion on the server before emitting the completed item update.
+
+## Context Filtering
+
+Only chat messages with:
+
+- `Kind = CHAT`
+- `IncludeInContext = true`
+
+are included in future provider requests.
+
+That means these items are excluded from the model context window:
+
+- reasoning blocks
+- tool call blocks
+- UI-only intermediate assistant chat blocks
+- failed system status blocks
+
+This is the main rule that preserves transcript richness without degrading prompt quality.
+
+## TUI Behavior
+
+The AI TUI now consumes `AIConversationEvent` incrementally.
+
+Instead of reloading the whole conversation for every server event, it:
+
+- merges conversation summaries into the sidebar
+- upserts messages in place by message id or item id
+- updates waiting state from `TurnState`
+- removes deleted conversations immediately
+
+Reasoning and tool-call blocks render as dedicated dark-grey transcript boxes.
+
+### Reasoning Blocks
+
+Reasoning blocks show:
+
+- the `Reasoning` label
+- the persisted reasoning text
+- item state metadata
+
+### Tool Call Blocks
+
+Tool blocks show:
+
+- `Tool: <name>`
+- arguments
+- result
+- error text when present
+- item state metadata
+
+These blocks are restored exactly like chat messages because they are stored in the same ordered transcript.
+
+## Restore And Sync
+
+Because UI-only items live in the database:
+
+- another Sliver client can attach to the same conversation and see the full turn history
+- reconnecting the TUI restores reasoning and tool-call blocks
+- turn state survives restart, so "in progress" and "failed" status can be reconstructed from persisted conversation metadata
+
+## Differences From Codex
+
+This port intentionally differs from the example in a few places.
+
+- Sliver currently uses non-streaming Responses API requests, so reasoning items arrive as completed items rather than token deltas.
+- Tool execution is currently a bounded read-only server-side function set, not the full Codex local tool surface.
+- Sliver persists intermediate items in its conversation DB rather than only in a transient thread runtime.
+
+The important invariant is still the same:
+
+- turn lifecycle is explicit
+- item lifecycle is explicit
+- UI-only items are persisted and replayable
+- only context-visible chat reaches the model

 Sliver allows an operator to extend the local client console and its features by adding new commands based on third party tools. The easiest way to install an alias or extension is using the [armory](/docs?name=Armory).
 
+## Server AI Access
+
+Aliases and extensions used from the client console still live under `~/.sliver-client/aliases` and `~/.sliver-client/extensions`.
+
+The server-side AI agent uses a separate store under `~/.sliver/ai/aliases` and `~/.sliver/ai/extensions`. To make a package available to the AI agent, copy the unpacked package directory into the matching server-side path so the manifest and payload artifacts are present together. For example:
+
+- `~/.sliver/ai/aliases/Rubeus/alias.json`
+- `~/.sliver/ai/aliases/Rubeus/Rubeus.exe`
+- `~/.sliver/ai/extensions/nanodump/extension.json`
+- `~/.sliver/ai/extensions/nanodump/nanodump.x64.o`
+
+There is currently no dedicated UI for this workflow. The AI agent can search and execute only the packages that have been copied into these server-side directories.
+
 #### Aliases Command Parsing
 
 **⚠️ IMPORTANT:** It's important to understand that all alias commands have certain Sliver shell flags (those that appear in `--help`). Your Sliver shell commands are lexically parsed by the Sliver shell first, and only unnamed positional arguments are passed to the alias code. This means you may need to escape certain arguments in order for them to be correctly parsed.

@@ -5,8 +5,8 @@ This document describes the technical design of Sliver.
 There are four major components to the Sliver ecosystem:
 
 - **Server Console -** The server console is the main interface, which is started when you run the `sliver-server` executable. The server console is a superset of the client console. All code is shared between the client/server consoles except server-specific commands related to client (i.e., operator) management. The server console talks over an in-memory gRPC interface to the server.
-- **Sliver Server -** The Sliver server is also part of the `sliver-server` executable and manages the internal database, starts/stops network listeners (such as C2 listeners, though there are other types). The main interface used to interact with the server is the gRPC interface, thru which all functionality is implemented. By default the server will only start an in-memory gRPC listener that can only be communicated with from the server console. However, the gRPC interface can also be exposed to the network (i.e., multiplayer mode) over mutual TLS (mTLS).
-- **Sliver Client -** The client console is the primary user interface that is used to interact with the Sliver server. Note that most of the code in the server console is actually the client console. The client console can also be compiled into a separate client binary file `sliver-client`, which is generally used to connect to the "mutliplayer" gRPC network listener.

 Sliver has experimental support for self-hosted private armories, but I have not gotten around to testing and writing the documentation for these, so you'll have to read through the source code to figure out how they work for now. I'll eventually update this documentation and release a reference implementation. If you do play around with this, just know the design is subject to change before becoming a real feature.

+## Default WireGuard-Protected Mode
 
 Operators will need to download their preferred platform's client software from the releases page. Clients can connect to servers of differing platforms (e.g. a Windows client can connect to a Linux server). Operators and servers authenticate using Mutual TLS, however all the certificates are managed automatically for you.
 
 - If you did not install the server as a systemd service, be sure to leave the server console running in screen or [tmux](https://github.com/tmux/tmux) after starting the multiplayer listener.

+- If you did install the server as a systemd service, see the CLI section below for an alternative to the console commands for generating operator configs.
 
 Operators need a configuration file generated by the Sliver server to connect in multiplayer mode. The Sliver client can support multiple configuration files, but you can only be connected to one server at a time (per process).
 
-From the server use the `new-operator` command to generate a new operator configuration file. You'll need to specify the operator's `--name` and the `--lhost` of the server (e.g., its public IP).

+- `multiplayer` exposes a WireGuard listener on `--lport` (default `31337`) over UDP.
+- The authenticated gRPC/mTLS server only listens inside that WireGuard tunnel.
+- `new-operator` generates a per-operator WireGuard keypair and tunnel IP, then embeds that information in the operator config's `wg` block.
+- The multiplayer listener uses WireGuard keys that are separate from Sliver's implant `wg` C2 listener.
+- `sliver-client` automatically uses the WireGuard wrapper when the imported config contains that `wg` block.
+
+From the server, start the multiplayer listener and generate an operator config with the server's public address or hostname in `--lhost`. Use `--permissions all` for a standard interactive operator profile:
