-"""Attachment routing for multimodal prompts.
-
-The one invariant this module exists to enforce: **an attachment is never
-dropped silently**. Every input either becomes a model-visible content part, or
-produces a loud, actionable signal that names the file and says why.
-
-Two failure classes are treated differently on purpose:
-
-``raise`` -- *addressing* errors: the path does not exist, is a directory, is
-    unreadable, or the attachment is not a type this API accepts. These are
-    always caller mistakes (a typo, a wrong working directory, a stale path).
-    They are fully actionable at the call site, there is no useful degraded
-    answer, and continuing would produce a confident answer about a file the
-    model never saw. Raising is the only way the caller can tell.
-
-``warn + visible degrade`` -- *capability* limits: the file is there and
-    readable, but the target model cannot ingest that media type. The run can
-    still be useful, so we log a warning **and** put a marker part in the
-    prompt so the model itself knows a file was withheld or converted and can
-    say so. This is environmental, not a bug in the caller's code, and hard
-    failing would make a model swap a breaking change.
-
-Escape hatches (both default to the behaviour described above):
-
-- ``PRAISONAI_ATTACHMENTS_ON_MISSING=warn`` downgrades the missing/unreadable
-  raise to a warning + visible marker part.
-- ``PRAISONAI_ATTACHMENTS_STRICT=1`` escalates capability degrades to raises,
-  for pipelines that would rather fail than get a partial answer.
-
-Part shapes emitted (OpenAI/LiteLLM chat-completions style):
-
-- image      -> ``{"type": "image_url", "image_url": {"url": "data:...;base64,..."}}``
-- pdf native -> ``{"type": "file", "file": {"filename": ..., "file_data": "data:application/pdf;base64,..."}}``
-- audio      -> ``{"type": "input_audio", "input_audio": {"data": "<b64>", "format": "mp3"}}``
-- text/degraded/withheld -> ``{"type": "text", "text": "[Attachment: ...] ..."}``

         This is a DRY helper used by chat/achat/run/arun/start/astart.
         Attachments are ephemeral - only text is stored in history.
         
-        Routing lives in ``praisonaiagents.agent.attachments``. The contract is
-        that an attachment is **never dropped silently**: a bad path raises
-        :class:`~praisonaiagents.agent.attachments.AttachmentError`, and a file
-        the target model cannot ingest is logged as a warning *and* replaced
-        with a visible marker part (or a locally extracted text form) so both
-        the caller and the model know what happened.
-        
         Args:
             prompt: Text query (ALWAYS stored in chat_history)
-            attachments: Image/document/audio paths, URLs, or content-part
-                dicts for THIS turn only (NEVER stored)
+            attachments: Image/file paths for THIS turn only (NEVER stored)
             
         Returns:
             Either a string (no attachments) or multimodal message list
-        
-        Raises:
-            AttachmentError: for a path that does not exist or cannot be read,
-                or an attachment that is not a path/URL/content-part dict.

-"""In-run guardrail retry signalling.

-A guardrail normally reports failure by returning ``(False, "why")``. That works
-when the validator *is* the thing doing the checking, but not when the check
-lives several frames down - a Pydantic model that fails to parse, a lookup that
-comes back empty, a helper that already raises. ``GuardrailRetry`` lets any of

-        return True, output
-
-    agent = Agent(instructions="...", guardrails=in_customer_country)
-
-The message is appended to the *same* conversation as a user turn, so the model
-patches its previous answer in place instead of restarting the task, bounded by
-``max_guardrail_retries`` (``GuardrailConfig(max_retries=...)``).
-
-Any other exception raised by a guardrail is still treated as a validation
-*error* and reported as such; ``GuardrailRetry`` is the deliberate "not
-acceptable, here is why" signal.

-"""Per-tool guardrails: validate the arguments and the result of ONE tool.
-
-PraisonAI already had guardrails at two scopes and nothing in between:
-
-* ``Agent(guardrail=...)`` / ``Task(guardrail=...)`` validate the **final
-  output** of a whole run.
-* The agent-wide tool surface (``_tool_call_guardrails`` /
-  ``_tool_result_guardrails``, fed from a ``GuardrailProtocol`` object passed to
-  ``Agent(guardrails=...)``) fires for **every tool** the agent can reach.
-* ``approval`` gates a tool call on a **human**, interactively.
-
-None of those let a tool author say "*this one* tool must never be called with a
-recipient outside the company domain". Doing it today meant policing every tool
-through interactive approval, or hand-wrapping the function body. This module
-adds the missing scope, declared on the tool itself next to ``approval`` and
-``restart_safe``::
-
-    def internal_recipients_only(arguments: dict):
-        if not arguments.get("to", "").endswith("@corp.com"):
-            return False, "Recipient is outside the company domain."
-        return True, arguments
-
-    @tool(input_guardrails=[internal_recipients_only])
-    def send_email(to: str, body: str) -> str:
-        ...
-
-The guardrail fires on every invocation of ``send_email`` and never for any
-other tool.
-
-What a guardrail function receives and returns
-----------------------------------------------
-An **input** guardrail takes one positional argument, the ``arguments`` dict the
-model proposed. An **output** guardrail takes one positional argument, the raw
-result the tool returned. Both use the ``(success, value)`` tuple convention
-already used everywhere else in this package (``Agent(guardrail=fn)``,
-``GuardrailProtocol``):
-
-* ``(True, value)`` - allow; ``value`` replaces the arguments/result, so a
-  guardrail can **rewrite** (sanitise arguments, redact a secret out of a
-  result). ``(True, None)`` allows the original through unchanged.
-* ``(False, "reason")`` - block. The reason is handed back to the **model** as
-  the tool result so it can react and try something else; it is never raised at
-  the user.
-* A bare ``True`` / ``False`` works too, as does a
-  :class:`~praisonaiagents.guardrails.GuardrailResult`.
-* ``None`` (a validator that only ever returns ``False`` to object, and falls
-  off the end otherwise) means "no opinion" - allow unchanged. The deny path is
-  explicit, so nothing is lost by being permissive here.
-* Anything else is a contract violation and **fails closed**: an unreadable
-  verdict is not an approval.
-
-A guardrail that raises also fails closed, matching ``GuardrailChain``'s
-default. Pass an object exposing ``validate_tool_call`` / ``validate_tool_result``
-(any ``GuardrailProtocol`` implementation, including a ``GuardrailChain``) to
-reuse an existing guardrail unchanged.

-before any network I/O, and the message names the call site in *your* code that
-triggered it.
-
-Scope: this covers the agent's own turn-taking. Auxiliary model calls made by
-other subsystems (memory scoring, embeddings) hold their own clients and are
-not routed through these two paths.

-calls in broad ``except Exception`` handlers that degrade a failure into a

-follows the precedent pytest sets with its own outcome exceptions and derives

-It is a real :class:`~praisonaiagents.llm.llm.LLM` subclass that replaces the
-methods which talk to a provider and nothing else, so everything around the
-call is the production code path: the system prompt is assembled normally,
-tools are serialised to real schemas, scripted tool calls are dispatched
-through the agent's own executor, and results are fed back as real tool
-messages. Replies are built as genuine litellm response objects, so they are
-parsed by the same code a live response would be.
-
-Basic use::
-
-    from praisonaiagents import Agent
-    from praisonaiagents.model_harness import ScriptedModel
-
-    model = ScriptedModel(["Paris."])
-    agent = Agent(instructions="You are a geography bot.", llm=model)
-
-    assert agent.start("What is the capital of France?") == "Paris."
-    assert model.requests[0].last_user_message == "What is the capital of France?"
-
-Scripting a tool call followed by a final answer::
-
-    model = ScriptedModel([
-        ScriptedModel.tool_call("refund", {"order_id": "A1"}),
-        "Refunded order A1.",
-    ])
-    agent = Agent(instructions="Support bot.", llm=model, tools=[refund])
-
-    assert agent.start("refund order A1") == "Refunded order A1."
-    assert model.request_count == 2  # tool turn, then the follow-up
-
-A script entry may also be a callable, which receives the
-:class:`RecordedRequest` and returns a reply -- useful for replies that depend
-on what the agent actually sent::
-
-    model = ScriptedModel([lambda req: f"You said: {req.last_user_message}"])
-
-When the agent asks for one more reply than the script holds, the double raises
-:class:`ScriptExhausted` rather than hanging, looping or inventing an answer.

-A guardrail could already say "no, because X", but that reason only ever reached
-the model as a brand-new one-message request - original prompt plus a note -
-with the system prompt, context and the rejected answer itself all thrown away.
-These tests pin the in-run correction loop:
-
-  * a validator that rejects once costs exactly two model calls and returns the
-    corrected answer (control: a passing validator costs exactly one);
-  * the rejection text is in the second request, appended to the *same*
-    conversation after the rejected assistant turn (control: it appears nowhere
-    in the first request, and nowhere at all when validation passes);
-  * a validator that always rejects stops at ``max_guardrail_retries`` with an
-    error naming the bound and the last reason (control: the identical setup
-    with a satisfiable validator succeeds within the same bound).

-"""Per-tool guardrails: @tool(input_guardrails=..., output_guardrails=...).
-
-PraisonAI could validate an agent's FINAL output (``Agent(guardrail=...)``) and
-could gate EVERY tool call on a human (``approval``), but nothing sat in
-between: there was no way to attach a validator to ONE tool. These tests cover
-the new scope end to end.
-
-Every positive is paired with a control:
-
-* an input guardrail blocks a call -> the tool never executes, and the rejection
-  reaches the model (control: the same tool with allowed arguments runs and its
-  real output reaches the model)
-* an input guardrail rewrites arguments -> the tool sees the rewritten ones
-  (control: an identical unguarded tool sees the originals)
-* an output guardrail substitutes a result (control: a pass-through guardrail
-  leaves it alone)
-* a guardrail on tool A does not fire for tool B (control: A's own call does
-  fire it)
-* an unguarded tool is entirely unaffected
-
-Plus the documented ordering against the approval gate, the agent-wide
-guardrail surface, and the trust-level fence.
-
-No network: tools are local functions and the LLM is a stub whose
-``chat.completions.create`` returns canned tool calls.

+ * Enables real-time voice conversations over a real WebSocket connection.
+ *
+ * ## Why the WebSocket is loaded the way it is
+ *
+ * This module is exported from the package root, so it has to stay loadable in
+ * a browser/webview bundle (see `scripts/webview-gate.mjs`). A static
+ * `import WebSocket from 'ws'` would put an unresolvable bare specifier on that
+ * bundle. So the implementation is resolved at call time:
+ *
+ *   1. an explicitly injected constructor (`{ webSocket }`), for tests and for
+ *      runtimes that ship their own,
+ *   2. `globalThis.WebSocket` -- browsers, React Native, and Node >= 22,
+ *   3. the optional `ws` package, imported through a computed specifier so no
+ *      bundler tries to resolve it statically. `ws` is NOT a dependency of this
+ *      package; this branch only fires if a consumer installed it themselves,
+ *   4. otherwise a clear error naming all three ways to fix it. It never
+ *      pretends to have connected.

+ *  2. `node:sqlite` -- Node's own SQLite, built into Node >= 22.5. No native
+ *     build step, so no ABI to mismatch. It is flagged experimental by Node
+ *     and prints one `ExperimentalWarning` when first loaded. Same on-disk
+ *     format, so a file written by either driver reads in the other.
+ *
+ * If neither loads, every operation REJECTS with a message naming what each
+ * driver did and how to fix it. It never falls back to memory: a persistence
+ * layer that quietly stops persisting is the bug this module exists to fix.
+ *
+ * `PRAISONAI_SQLITE_DRIVER=better-sqlite3|node` pins the choice (useful to
+ * reproduce a driver-specific failure); `driver` on the constructor does the
+ * same per-instance.
+ *
+ * ## Schema (version 1.0)
+ *
+ * Table and column names mirror what the Python side persists
+ * (`praisonaiagents/db/protocol.py`, `runs/sqlite_ledger.py`) so the two are
+ * conceptually aligned: snake_case columns, JSON-encoded `metadata`,
+ * epoch-millisecond timestamps. Only the fields TypeScript's `DbAdapter`
+ * actually has are stored -- Python's `input_content`/`output_content`/
+ * `events` have no TypeScript counterpart and are not invented here.
+ *
+ *   sessions(id PK, created_at, updated_at, metadata)
+ *   messages(id PK, session_id, run_id, role, content, name, tool_call_id,
+ *            tool_calls, created_at, metadata)
+ *   runs(id PK, session_id, agent_name, status, started_at, completed_at,
+ *        error, metadata, prompt_tokens, completion_tokens, total_tokens)

+ *          status, metadata)
+ *   spans(id PK, trace_id, parent_id, name, started_at, completed_at, status,
+ *         attributes)
+ *   praisonai_meta(key PK, value)   -- holds schema_version
+ *
+ * Timestamps are epoch milliseconds (`Date.now()`), matching the `DbMessage`/
