fix(tui): keep the profile name on /model switch so the stored key resolves

normalizeProfileForProvider rewrote profile.Name to the catalog provider.ID
whenever normalizeIdentity was true — which includes any first-party provider
whose saved baseURL matches the catalog default. The credential store is keyed
by profile.Name, and this rewrite runs before profileWithCredential, so the
stored-key lookup missed and the rebuilt provider went out with no key: a 401 on
every /model switch for a profile named differently from its catalog id (e.g.
"my-openai").

Only canonicalize an empty or generic placeholder name now; a real user-provided
name is preserved. CatalogID canonicalization is unchanged (it is not the store
key). Adds regression tests covering a custom-named first-party profile surviving
normalization and placeholder names still canonicalizing.

Fixes #440

 # Extending Zero
 
 Zero is an open-source terminal coding agent. Out of the box it does the obvious things — read, edit, run, search — but the design point of the project is that **every surface is configurable**. This document is the user-facing guide for that configuration.

-# Repository Guidelines for Zero
-
-These instructions apply to all work in this repository. For the user-facing
-guide to extending Zero with specialists, hooks, plugins, MCP, and skills, see
-[docs/EXTENDING.md](docs/EXTENDING.md).
-
-## 1. Contribution and Pull Request Rules
-
-- Before opening any pull request, **all contributors**—including maintainers,
-  community contributors, and coding agents—must read and follow
-  [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md).
-- Community pull requests require an existing parent issue with the
-  `issue-approved` label. Team members may open pull requests through the
-  internal development process described in `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
-- Keep each change focused on the approved or assigned scope. Do not include
-  unrelated fixes, refactors, formatting churn, generated output, or existing
-  local changes in the same commit or pull request.
-- Discuss new implementation languages, runtimes, major dependency changes,
-  and broad architectural rewrites with maintainers before implementation.
-- Pull request descriptions must explain what changed and why, link the parent
-  issue when required, and list the tests or verification performed. Include
-  screenshots or a short recording for user-visible UI changes when practical.
-
-## 2. Repository and Implementation Conventions
-
-- Use the Go version declared in `go.mod`. Do not hardcode a different local
-  toolchain version in scripts or documentation.
-- Use the repository build and release commands (`make` and
-  `go run ./cmd/zero-release ...`) instead of inventing parallel build flows.
-- Keep tests beside their source files (`foo_test.go` next to `foo.go`). Add a
-  regression test for behavior changes and run affected concurrent code under
-  the race detector.
-- Never edit files under `third_party/`; they are vendored.
-- Prefer one cross-platform function with small conditional checks over
-  duplicated platform-specific helpers when the behavior can remain unified.
-- Do not commit generated benchmark reports from
-  `internal/perfbench/reports/*.json`; reports are configuration-specific
-  evidence, not repository state.
-- Preserve the user's working tree. Do not overwrite, delete, stage, or commit
-  unrelated tracked or untracked files.
-
-## 3. Required Validation
-
-Run validation from the repository root before committing, opening a pull
-request, or completing an implementation task:
-
-1. **Formatting check**: `make fmt-check`. If it fails, format with
-   `go fmt ./...` (or `make fmt`) and run the check again.
-2. **Vet**: `go vet ./...` (or `make vet`).
-3. **Tests**: `go test ./...`. Use `make test` for the full race-enabled suite,
-   or run focused tests with `-race`, when concurrency is affected.
-4. **Build**: `go run ./cmd/zero-release build`.
-5. **Smoke test**: `go run ./cmd/zero-release smoke`.
-6. **Advisory lint**: `make lint-static`.
-7. **Security**: `make vulncheck`.
-8. **Diff hygiene**: `git diff HEAD --check` (covers staged and unstaged
-   tracked changes).
-
-`make lint` currently runs the formatting check and `go vet`; it does **not**
-run golangci-lint. The pinned golangci-lint job is advisory in CI while the
-existing repository-wide backlog is cleaned up. Fix findings introduced by or
-related to the current change. Unrelated pre-existing advisory findings do not
-justify expanding a focused pull request; report them separately.
-
-Formatting, vet, tests, build, smoke, diff hygiene, and govulncheck are hard
-requirements. If a related check fails, fix it. If a required check cannot run
-because of the environment or fails for an unrelated external reason, report
-the exact failure and obtain maintainer direction rather than silently ignoring
-it.
-
-## 4. Common Review Blockers
-
-These classes drive multi-round reviews. Fix them before requesting review:
-
-- **Fresh base:** Rebase onto the current PR base (`main` or stacked target)
-  before review. A stale head that rolls back mainline commits is a hard
-  blocker, not a merge-time detail. Resolve conflicts by keeping upstream
-  behavior unless the PR intentionally changes it.
-- **Platform truth:** Code and tests must pass on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
-  Compare paths after canonicalization (physical/`EvalSymlinks` form); never
-  assert raw `t.TempDir()` spellings (`/var` vs `/private/var` on macOS, short
-  paths on Windows). Prefer one cross-platform function with small `GOOS`
-  checks over duplicated helpers that drift.
-- **Supported targets only:** CONTRIBUTING.md names the five native prebuilt
-  release artifacts (`linux-x64`, `linux-arm64`, `macos-arm64`, `macos-x64`,
-  `windows-x64`) and the additional supported Android/Termux source-build and
-  artifact-fallback path. Other `GOOS`/`GOARCH` combinations, including
-  `plan9`, are unsupported and are not a review criterion. Do not block a PR
-  for failing to compile on an unsupported `GOOS`/`GOARCH`. Tests may use
-  `plan9` as a fixture for "unsupported".
-- **Security edges:** Keep secrets out of argv, env dumps, and logs. Redact
-  success and error paths (including stderr). Fail closed on ownership, lease,
-  and permission checks. Do not rely on pre-open path resolution
-  (`EvalSymlinks` then open) for containment: that is a check-to-use race.
-  Bind containment at open/use time with rooted or handle-relative,
-  traversal-resistant APIs. If a no-follow API is used, apply it to every
-  traversed component and enforce the platform's reparse-point protections;
-  final-component-only no-follow is insufficient. On multi-step setup, roll back
-  only what this run created; never destroy pre-existing resources you did
-  not create; never report success when cleanup or unlock failed.
-- **Normalize before matching:** Any transform that REMOVES bytes without
-  leaving a gap is also a reassembler, so it has to run before whatever matches
-  on the result. Redacting by shape and then stripping control bytes lets a
-  credential split by a NUL, an ESC or a C1 byte pass the patterns as two
-  fragments and be rejoined on the way out; comparing a path against a form
-  produced by the same resolver the kernel just used makes a redirect agree with
-  itself. Strip, decode, or canonicalize first, then match. The unsplit value
-  passing is not evidence, so the test needs a split case.
-- **Atomic shared state:** Write a complete temporary file, then atomically
-  replace the destination so concurrent readers never see a partial write.
-  Exclusive create or a write lock alone is not enough for readers. Serialize
-  the full read-modify-write sequence for lockfiles and shared stores.
-- **Tests match the claim:** Every behavior or security-boundary change needs a
-  regression test, including the failure path. Path-sensitive logic needs at
-  least one non-Linux path case (or a hermetic fake that exercises the same
-  normalization).
-- **Honest scope:** PR description, help text, and comments must match what
-  shipped. Wire advertised entry points or shrink the claim. Do not bundle
-  unrelated fixes. Do not widen security allowlists by name alone; check
-  classification and side effects too.
-- **Host tool version floors:** Zero shells out to `git` and other host tools,
-  and the project does not declare a minimum version for any of them. A flag,
-  subcommand, or config key that is not long-established therefore raises that
-  floor silently, and the failure on an older host is an unhelpful usage error
-  rather than a clear message. Before adding one, check when it landed and say
-  so where a caller would look. Record the floor for the exact subcommand you
-  call, not for the flag in general: `--end-of-options` reached Git's shared
-  parser in 2.24, but `git rev-parse` only accepted it from 2.30, and
-  `git checkout` and `git reset` later still. Likewise `--show-current` is
-  `git branch` 2.22, and `branch.autoSetupMerge=inherit` is 2.35. Then either
-  keep a fallback for older versions or gate the call. A test that depends on a
-  newer feature must skip below its floor instead of failing, and say which
-  version it needs.
-- **Prove the test fails without the change:** A regression test earns its
-  place only if it fails on the unfixed code, for the reason it claims. Run it
-  both ways and quote the failure in the PR. The recurring miss is not a
-  missing test but a test that never reaches the behavior it names, because an
-  earlier guard rejects the input first, so it passes with and without the fix.
-  When a test targets a specific layer, call that layer directly rather than
-  relying on a public entry point that may refuse earlier.
-- **Hermetic tests:** Tests must not read or write the developer's real config,
-  cache, or state directories. Redirect every root the code under test
-  resolves, not just config. `os.UserConfigDir` and `os.UserCacheDir` read
-  `XDG_CONFIG_HOME` and `XDG_CACHE_HOME` only on Linux and the BSDs. On macOS
-  they derive from `HOME`, and on Windows from `%AppData%` and `%LocalAppData%`.
-  Setting the XDG variables alone still leaves a macOS run writing to the real
-  home, so set `HOME` as well, or take the directory as a parameter. Apply it to
-  every test that reaches the same storage, not only the one where it was first
-  needed; a test that passes on a clean machine and pollutes a real one is a
-  blocker.
-- **Error codes vary by platform and by flag combination:** A check written
-  against the code one target returns can be silently inert on another while
-  still looking correct. `openat(O_DIRECTORY|O_NOFOLLOW)` on a symlink may
-  report `ENOTDIR` or `ELOOP` depending on the platform, because the kernel can
-  reject the directory mismatch before it ever resolves the link; accept both
-  rather than assuming the one POSIX names. On Windows, `\\?\` and `\\.\`
-  prefixes are not UNC paths, and an `NtCreateFile` information class must match
-  the struct actually passed. Confirm the code each supported target returns
-  instead of reasoning from the man page.

 Zero includes local file/search/edit/shell tools, `web_fetch` for public URLs,

-## Extending Zero
-
-### Project and personal instructions
-
-Zero appends project-specific guidance to the system prompt from the first
-`AGENTS.md`, `ZERO.md`, or `.zero/AGENTS.md` file found in each directory from
-the git root down to your current working directory (checked in that order
-per directory). Files are injected general-to-specific, capped at 8 KiB per
-file and 32 KiB total.
-
-A personal `ZERO.md` under `config.UserConfigDir()/zero/ZERO.md`
-(`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/zero/ZERO.md` or `~/.config/zero/ZERO.md` on Linux/macOS,
-`%AppData%\Roaming\zero\ZERO.md` on Windows) applies across every workspace, ahead of any project guidelines.
-
-### Plugins
-
-Plugins are discovered from `~/.config/zero/plugins/<name>/plugin.json` (user
-scope — `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME` or `~/.config` on every OS, independent of the
-`config.UserConfigDir()` path used above) and `<cwd>/.zero/plugins/<name>/plugin.json`
-(project scope — resolved from the current working directory, not the repo
-root), and managed with `zero plugins`. A manifest can declare:
-
-- `tools` — custom tools (`command`, `args`, `inputSchema`, and a
-  `permission` of `prompt` or `deny`; `allow` is honored only when manifest tool
-  auto-approval is enabled)
-- `hooks` — commands run on `beforeTool`, `afterTool`, `sessionStart`, or
-  `sessionEnd`
-- `prompts` and `skills` — additional prompt/skill files
-
-MCP servers (`zero mcp`) and standalone markdown skills (`zero skills`) use
-the same extension points and can also be wired up outside of a plugin
-manifest.

-### Code Quality and Security Checks
-
-Before committing any changes, ensure all Go code quality and security checks pass. The `make` targets below pin each tool to this module's Go version, so they load correctly even when your default `go` toolchain is older — running the plain `go run ...@version` form yourself can select the tool module's own (older) toolchain and fail to load this module instead.
-
-1. **Formatting**: Run `make fmt` (or `go fmt ./...`).
-2. **Vetting**: Run `make vet` (or `go vet ./...`).
-3. **Linting**: Run `make lint-static`.
-4. **Vulnerability Scan**: Run `make vulncheck`.
-
-Use the repository-managed targets rather than globally installed binaries:
-the targets apply the module's required Go toolchain as well as the reviewed,
-pinned tool versions.
-
-The installed binaries land in `$GOBIN` when it is set, otherwise in
-`$GOPATH/bin` (default `~/go/bin`). That directory must be on your `PATH` to
-run them directly. If it isn't, add it:
-
-```bash
-gobin="$(go env GOBIN)"; [ -z "$gobin" ] && gobin="$(go env GOPATH)/bin"

-# Getting help with Zero
-
-## Questions, setup help, configuration
-
-Ask in [GitHub Discussions](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/discussions). Use
-[Q&A](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/discussions/categories/q-a) so answers can
-be marked and found by the next person.
-
-The fastest way to a useful answer is to include:
-
-- `zero --version` output
-- your OS (Windows, macOS, Linux) and how you installed Zero (npm, install
-  script, source)
-- the provider and model you are using (`zero providers list`)
-- `zero doctor` output for setup problems
-- the exact command you ran and the exact error text
-
-## Bugs
-
-If Zero does something wrong (crashes, wrong output, broken behavior), file a
-[bug report](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/issues/new/choose). If you are not
-sure whether it is a bug or a setup problem, start in Discussions and we will
-promote it to an issue if it is one.
-
-## Feature ideas
-
-Start a thread in
-[Ideas](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/discussions/categories/ideas). Zero is
-in controlled development (see CONTRIBUTING.md), so discussing an idea first is
-also the path to getting a PR accepted.
-
-## Security issues
-
-Never file a public issue or discussion. Report privately via
-[GitHub Security Advisories](https://github.com/Gitlawb/zero/security/advisories/new)
-(see SECURITY.md).

-# How Zero Works
-
-This document explains Zero's architecture at a high level: the layers, module
-boundaries, data flow, and runtime concepts behind the interactive TUI and the
-headless `zero exec` mode.
-
-It is written as a progressive map: each high-level section introduces the
-concepts you need for orientation, then points to the later section that explains
-the mechanics in more detail.
-
-## Big Picture
-
-Zero is a Go CLI application with two main user-facing surfaces:
-
-- **Interactive TUI** (`zero`): a Bubble Tea application that renders chat,
-  tool cards, permission prompts, model/provider pickers, and session controls.
-- **Headless exec** (`zero exec ...`): a scriptable command runner that uses the
-  same agent loop and tools, but writes text, JSON, or stream-JSON events.
-
-Both surfaces converge on the same core agent runtime:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    User[User / automation] --> CLI[cmd/zero -> internal/cli]
-
-    CLI --> TUI[Interactive TUI<br/>internal/tui]
-    CLI --> Exec[Headless exec<br/>internal/cli/exec.go]
-    CLI --> ACP[ACP / editor bridge<br/>internal/acp]
-
-    TUI --> Agent[Agent loop<br/>internal/agent]
-    Exec --> Agent
-    ACP --> Agent
-
-    Agent --> Provider[Provider runtime<br/>internal/zeroruntime.Provider]
-    Provider --> APIs[OpenAI / Anthropic / Gemini / compatible APIs]
-
-    Agent --> Registry[Tool registry<br/>internal/tools.Registry]
-    Registry --> CoreTools[Core tools<br/>read/edit/shell/search/plan]
-    Registry --> MCP[MCP tools<br/>internal/mcp]
-    Registry --> Specialists[Specialist tools<br/>internal/specialist]
-    Registry --> Plugins[Plugin tools<br/>internal/plugins]
-    Registry --> LocalControl[Browser / terminal / desktop helpers]
-
-    Agent --> Sandbox[Permission + sandbox engine<br/>internal/sandbox]
-    Agent --> Hooks[Hooks dispatcher<br/>internal/hooks]
-    Agent --> Sessions[Session event store<br/>internal/sessions]
-```
-
-The important split is:
-
-- `internal/tui` is the **presentation layer**. For the mechanics, see
-  [Presentation Layer: Bubble Tea TUI](#presentation-layer-bubble-tea-tui) and
-  [How the TUI and Agent Loop Connect](#how-the-tui-and-agent-loop-connect).
-- `internal/agent` is the **reasoning/tool loop**. For the per-turn mechanics,
-  see [Agent Loop](#agent-loop), [Tool Execution Lifecycle](#tool-execution-lifecycle),
-  and [Context Budget and Compaction](#context-budget-and-compaction).
-- `internal/tools`, `internal/sandbox`, and provider packages are the **runtime
-  capability layer**. For the details, see [Runtime Provider Layer](#runtime-provider-layer),
-  [Tools and Capabilities](#tools-and-capabilities), and
-  [Permission and Sandbox Model](#permission-and-sandbox-model).
-- `internal/sessions` is the **durable event log** used for resume, fork,
-  rewind, sub-agents, and history. See [Session Storage and History](#session-storage-and-history).
-
-## Architecture Spine
-
-The easiest way to understand Zero is not as a set of independent packages, but
-as one spine with several mechanisms attached to it:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart LR
-    Surface[Surface<br/>TUI / exec / ACP] --> Run[Run request<br/>prompt + runtime options]
-    Run --> Agent[Agent loop<br/>turns, tools, recovery]
-    Agent --> Capabilities[Capabilities<br/>providers + tools + sandbox]
-    Capabilities --> Events[Runtime events<br/>text, tool calls, permissions, usage]
-    Events --> Surface
-    Events --> Sessions[Session log<br/>resume, fork, rewind, history]
-
-    Config[Config / guidelines / skills] --> Run
-    Extensions[MCP / specialists / plugins / hooks] --> Capabilities
-```
-
-The **TUI + agent loop** is the main story because it explains the normal user
-experience: type a prompt, watch the model stream, approve tool use, see file
-changes, and receive a final answer. Other mechanisms are still important, but
-most of them attach to the same spine:
-
-| Mechanism | Where it attaches | What it changes |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| Config, provider profiles, model registry | Before a run starts | Which provider/model is used and what defaults apply. |
-| Project/user guidelines, skills, specialists context | Prompt construction | What instructions and available capabilities the model sees. |
-| Tool registry, MCP, plugins, local-control helpers | Capability layer | Which actions the model may request. |
-| Permission policy, sandbox, command-prefix grants | Tool execution | Whether a requested action can run, needs approval, or is denied. |
-| Hooks | Tool lifecycle | Optional before/after observers or blockers around tool calls. |
-| Sessions, checkpoints, compaction metadata | Event persistence/context | What can be resumed, forked, rewound, or summarized for later turns. |
-| Stream-JSON | Surface layer | How the same runtime events are emitted for automation instead of rendered in the TUI. |
-
-So this document focuses first on the TUI/agent-loop bridge, then explains the
-supporting mechanisms in terms of where they connect to that bridge.
-
-Use this as the reading path:
-
-| If you see this concept in a high-level flow | Read this detail section |
-| --- | --- |
-| Surface submits a run | [Startup Flow](#startup-flow), then [How the TUI and Agent Loop Connect](#how-the-tui-and-agent-loop-connect) |
-| Agent builds context and advances turns | [Agent Loop](#agent-loop) |
-| “Maybe compact context” | [Context Budget and Compaction](#context-budget-and-compaction) |
-| Model requests a tool | [Tool Execution Lifecycle](#tool-execution-lifecycle), then [Tools and Capabilities](#tools-and-capabilities) |
-| Tool needs approval or sandbox access | [Permission and Sandbox Model](#permission-and-sandbox-model) |
-| Events appear in the UI or stream-JSON | [How the TUI and Agent Loop Connect](#how-the-tui-and-agent-loop-connect), [Stream-JSON Protocol](#stream-json-protocol) |
-| Resume, fork, rewind, or sub-agent history | [Session Storage and History](#session-storage-and-history) |
-
-## Main Packages
-
-The sections above describe the architecture in concepts. If you want to connect
-those concepts to implementation details, use this table as the code map before
-reading the deeper flows below.
-
-| Package | Role |
-| --- | --- |
-| `cmd/zero` | Tiny binary entrypoint; calls `internal/cli.Run`. |
-| `internal/cli` | Command parsing, config resolution, provider creation, registry setup, TUI/exec/ACP launch paths. |
-| `internal/tui` | Bubble Tea model/update/view code, transcript rendering, composer, prompts, slash commands, setup wizard. |
-| `internal/agent` | Core loop that sends messages to the model, streams output, executes tools, handles permissions, compaction, retries, and final answers. |
-| `internal/zeroruntime` | Provider-neutral message, tool-call, stream, usage, and image types. Providers implement `Provider.StreamCompletion`. |
-| `internal/providers` | Factory that turns a resolved provider profile into an OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Codex, or compatible provider adapter. |
-| `internal/tools` | Tool interface, registry, core read/write/shell/network tools, local-control wrappers, tool safety metadata, redaction, output ceilings. |
-| `internal/sandbox` | Permission policy, path/network checks, grant store, command-prefix approvals, and platform sandbox backends. |
-| `internal/sessions` | Local append-only session storage: `metadata.json` + `events.jsonl`. |
-| `internal/config` | User/project config resolution, active provider, preferences, sandbox/tool settings. |
-| `internal/mcp` | MCP server config, client runtime, permission store, and MCP tool registration. |
-| `internal/specialist` / `internal/swarm` | Sub-agent manifests and team/member orchestration exposed as tools. |
-| `internal/localcontrol` / `internal/browser` | Runtime helpers used by config-gated local-control tool wrappers. |
-| `internal/plugins` / `internal/skills` / `internal/hooks` | Extension surfaces loaded into the agent context, tool registry, or tool lifecycle. |
-| `internal/streamjson` | Machine-readable protocol for `zero exec --input-format/--output-format stream-json`. |

-## Startup Flow
-
-### Interactive TUI (`zero`)
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram
-    participant Main as cmd/zero
-    participant CLI as internal/cli
-    participant Config as internal/config
-    participant TUI as internal/tui
-    participant Agent as internal/agent
-
-    Main->>CLI: Run(args)
-    CLI->>Config: resolve config for workspace
-    CLI->>CLI: build provider
-    CLI->>CLI: build tool registry
-    CLI->>CLI: register core, config-gated local-control, specialists, MCP, plugins
-    CLI->>CLI: create sandbox engine + session store
-    CLI->>TUI: run Bubble Tea with Options
-    TUI->>TUI: Init / Update / View event loop
-    TUI->>Agent: agent.Run on submitted prompt
-```
-
-The TUI owns terminal interaction. It tracks composer state, transcript rows,
-scrolling, permission dialogs, model/provider pickers, setup wizard state, and
-visual updates. When the user submits a prompt, the TUI builds `agent.Options`
-with callbacks like `OnText`, `OnToolCall`, `OnToolResult`, `OnPermission`,
-`OnAskUser`, and `OnUsage`. Those callbacks convert runtime events into visible
-transcript rows and session events.
-
-### Headless exec (`zero exec`)
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    A[Parse exec flags] --> B[Resolve config + provider]
-    B --> C[Build tool registry]
-    C --> D[Resolve prompt / stream-json input / images]
-    D --> E[Prepare or resume session]
-    E --> F[Create stream-json/text/json writer]
-    F --> G[agent.Run]
-    G --> H[Write final output and exit code]
-```
-
-`zero exec` uses the same `agent.Run` loop as the TUI, but without interactive
-terminal state. It can persist sessions, resume/fork existing sessions, run in
-stream-JSON mode for automation, and always requires a stronger completion
-signal so a no-tool assistant response is not treated as success while work is
-still pending.
-
-## Agent Loop
-
-The core loop lives in `internal/agent.Run`. Conceptually, every turn follows
-this cycle:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Start[Build system prompt + user prompt] --> Expose[Partition visible tools]
-    Expose --> Compact[Maybe compact context]
-    Compact --> Request[Send CompletionRequest to provider]
-    Request --> Stream[Collect streamed text, reasoning, usage, tool calls]
-
-    Stream --> HasTools{Tool calls?}
-    HasTools -- No --> FinalCheck{Final answer acceptable?}
-    FinalCheck -- Yes --> Done[Return Result]
-    FinalCheck -- No --> Nudge[Append user nudge and continue]
-
-    HasTools -- Yes --> Execute[Execute tool calls]
-    Execute --> Permission[Permission / sandbox / hooks]
-    Permission --> ToolResult[Append tool result messages]
-    ToolResult --> Diagnostics[Post-edit diagnostics / self-correct]
-    Diagnostics --> Expose
-```
-
-Key responsibilities of the loop:
-
-1. **Build prompt state** — combines the system prompt, project/user guidelines,
-   loaded skills/specialist instructions, the current user prompt, and images. The
-   resulting message list is the model-facing context that later tool results are
-   appended to. Resumed session history is replayed by the caller before a new run,
-   not passed as a separate `agent.Run` history field.
-2. **Expose tools** — starts from the registry built by the CLI, then filters
-   tool definitions by permission mode, enabled or disabled filters, and
-   deferred-loading rules. Tool schemas also count toward context budget, so they
-   matter for compaction decisions.
-3. **Call provider** — sends a provider-neutral `zeroruntime.CompletionRequest`.
-4. **Stream events** — forwards text, reasoning, tool-call deltas, and usage to
-   the caller via callbacks.
-5. **Execute tools** — decodes tool arguments, checks filters, applies
-   permissions and sandbox policy, dispatches hooks, runs the registered tool,
-   redacts output, and appends a tool message. See
-   [Tool Execution Lifecycle](#tool-execution-lifecycle).
-6. **Recover and guard** — handles malformed tool calls, repeated failures,
-   empty turns, context pressure, stream reconnect/retry, and max-turn fallback.
-   Context pressure is handled by [Context Budget and Compaction](#context-budget-and-compaction).
-7. **Finalize** — returns a final answer or a structured incomplete/stop reason.
-
-The model never directly mutates the workspace. It asks for tool calls; Zero
-validates and executes those calls through the registry, permission policy, and
-sandbox engine.
-
-## Tool Execution Lifecycle
-
-A tool call is part of the model conversation, not a side channel that bypasses
-it. The model proposes an action, Zero decides whether that action is allowed to
-run, the tool returns a structured result, and that result becomes context for the
-next provider request.

-    end
-
-    Agent->>Model: next request includes prior assistant tool_call + tool result
-    Model-->>Agent: continue with more tools or final answer
-```
-
-Conceptually, one requested tool goes through these phases:
-
-1. **Proposal** — the provider streams assistant content and may emit one or more
-   tool calls. Zero can show the partial tool arguments in the TUI while they are
-   still streaming, but nothing has executed yet.
-2. **Decode and gate** — the agent validates JSON arguments, checks whether the
-   tool is enabled, applies permission mode, asks the sandbox engine about path,
-   network, shell, or command-prefix constraints, and may invoke permission
-   callbacks.
-3. **Execute** — the selected registry entry runs locally, through MCP, as a
-   specialist/sub-agent, or through a plugin/local-control helper. Hooks can run
-   before or after this step.
-4. **Normalize result** — Zero turns the outcome into an agent `ToolResult`: a
-   success, failure, denial, cancellation, timeout, or validation error with
-   output/metadata that may be redacted or truncated.
-5. **Append to context** — the result is appended as a tool-result message paired
-   with the assistant tool call. The next model request includes that result, so
-   the model can inspect it and decide what to do next.
-6. **Render and persist** — the result is surfaced to the TUI, stream-JSON
-   writer, or ACP client. TUI and exec record rich tool/session events for
-   resume/history; ACP persists conversational messages and completed tool-call
-   starts/results for load replay. Live streaming details and permission
-   exchanges remain client notifications rather than durable history.
-
-Tool success and failure are both informative context. A successful `read_file`
-result gives the model file contents; a failed `edit_file` result gives the model
-an error such as “old string not found”; a denied shell command tells the model
-that the action is not currently permitted. The model is expected to use that
-feedback to continue, choose another tool, ask the user, or explain the blocker.
-
-The judgement that “information is sufficient” is made by the model, not by the
-TUI. Zero controls the loop mechanics: it keeps appending messages, enforces
-safety, retries or nudges around malformed/empty/incomplete turns, and stops on
-hard limits. But the semantic decision to call another tool versus produce a
-final answer comes from the next provider response. In other words:

-
-This is why tool output is usually more than UI decoration. It is part of the
-working memory for the next model turn, subject to context-window pressure and
-compaction. The TUI may summarize or prettify it for the user, but the agent loop
-also stores the machine-facing result that the model sees.
-
-## Context Budget and Compaction
-
-The `Maybe compact context` step in the agent-loop diagram is Zero's context-window
-pressure valve. It is not a separate memory engine; it rewrites the current
-model-facing conversation so the next provider request fits within the configured
-context window.
-
-Compaction is enabled only when the run knows a positive `ContextWindow`. When it
-is enabled, the loop does this near the top of each turn:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Tools[Partition visible tools] --> Estimate[Estimate messages + tool-definition tokens]
-    Estimate --> Under{Under threshold?}
-    Under -- Yes --> Keep[Keep context as-is]
-    Under -- No --> Grown{Grown past low-water mark?}
-    Grown -- No --> Keep
-    Grown -- Yes --> Prune[Prune stale large tool outputs]
-    Prune --> Recheck{Back under threshold?}
-    Recheck -- Yes --> KeepPruned[Use pruned context]
-    Recheck -- No --> Summarize[Summarize oldest middle]
-    Summarize --> Replace[system messages + summary + recent suffix]
-```
-
-The trigger is intentionally approximate:
-
-- Zero estimates request size using message text, images, tool-call arguments, and
-  the tool definitions advertised on that turn.
-- The proactive threshold is roughly **two-thirds of the context window**.
-- Provider usage from completed turns is used to calibrate the rough estimate over
-  time, so the budget gauge and compaction decision track the provider more
-  closely after a few turns.
-- A low-water mark prevents the loop from re-summarizing the same already-compacted
-  history on every turn.
-
-When compaction actually runs, it tries to preserve the parts most likely to be
-needed by the model:
-
-- leading system messages stay verbatim;
-- the most recent turns stay verbatim (`CompactionPreserveLast`, defaulting to the
-  agent's normal preserve count);
-- the preserved suffix is widened to a provider-valid turn boundary so tool-result
-  messages are not replayed without their corresponding assistant tool call;
-- the older middle is summarized into one user-role message labeled
-  `[Summary of earlier conversation]`;
-- structured state that should not be paraphrased away, such as active plan/loaded
-  skill state, is preserved alongside the prose summary.
-
-There are two compaction paths:
-
-1. **Proactive compaction** runs before the provider call when the estimated
-   request is over threshold.
-2. **Reactive compaction** runs after a provider returns a context-limit style
-   error. Zero compacts once and retries that same turn; if the provider still
-   rejects the request, the error is surfaced rather than looping forever.
-
-Compaction failures are conservative. If the summarizer fails during proactive
-compaction, Zero keeps the original messages and tries to continue. It does not
-drop conversation history just to make room.
-
-## Presentation Layer: Bubble Tea TUI
-
-`internal/tui` is a Bubble Tea application. The usual Bubble Tea shape applies:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart LR
-    Init[model.Init] --> Update[model.Update]
-    Update --> View[model.View]
-    View --> Terminal[Terminal frame]
-    Terminal --> Msg[tea.Msg: key, mouse, window, agent event]
-    Msg --> Update
-```
-
-The TUI is intentionally not the agent brain. It is responsible for:
-
-- collecting user input from the composer;
-- rendering assistant text, reasoning, tool cards, permissions, plans, usage,
-  files, and sidebars;
-- handling slash commands and modal surfaces;
-- converting agent callbacks into Bubble Tea messages;
-- persisting visible session events;
-- allowing live provider/model/permission changes.
-
-When a prompt is submitted, the TUI starts a background command that invokes
-`agent.Run`. Streaming callbacks send messages back into the Bubble Tea update
-loop, so rendering remains responsive while the agent is working.
-
-## How the TUI and Agent Loop Connect
-
-A common source of confusion is that Zero has two event loops running at once:
-
-1. **Bubble Tea loop** — owns terminal input, in-memory UI state, and frames.
-2. **Agent loop** — owns model turns, tool execution, permissions, retries, and
-   stop conditions.
-
-They are connected by `tea.Cmd` and `agent.Options` callbacks. The TUI never
-runs provider/tool logic directly inside `Update`; instead, submit handling gates
-and dispatches a prompt, the TUI starts a background command, and that command
-calls `agent.Run` with callbacks that send runtime events back to the Bubble Tea
-program. Function names in this section are illustrative code anchors, not API
-boundaries.
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram

-    Cmd-->>TUI: final agentResponseMsg
-    TUI->>TUI: mark run complete, flush rows/events, unlock composer
-```
-
-In the TUI path, the same event can have three representations:
-
-| Runtime thing | Agent representation | TUI representation | Session representation |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| Assistant text | streamed provider text forwarded through `OnText` | incremental assistant row text | assistant message event |
-| Reasoning preview | `OnReasoning` callback | collapsible/preview reasoning row | usually not the same as final assistant text |
-| Tool call | `agent.ToolCall` from collected provider stream | tool card, specialist card, or plan panel update | `EventToolCall` |
-| Tool result | `agent.ToolResult` | result card/status, changed files, plan/specialist updates | `EventToolResult` |
-| Permission prompt/audit | `PermissionRequest` / `PermissionEvent` | modal prompt or permission row | permission request/decision events |
-| Usage/context | provider usage + measured context | context gauge / usage metadata | usage event |
-
-### One interactive turn, end to end
-
-For a normal prompt in the interactive TUI:
-
-1. Submit handling validates composer state and command gates, then dispatches
-   the prompt to the launch path.
-2. The launch path appends immediate UI rows, creates a cancellable run context,
-   and starts `runAgent` as a `tea.Cmd`; run bookkeeping assigns the `runID` used
-   to correlate later events.
-3. `runAgentWithOptions` copies the current UI-controlled runtime choices into
-   `agent.Options`: provider/model labels, permission mode, cwd, session ID,
-   images, registry, response style, context window, and self-correction hooks.
-4. The command wraps agent callbacks. For example:
-   - `OnText` sends incremental assistant text into the TUI message sink.
-   - `OnToolCallStart` / `OnToolCallDelta` show live tool-argument streaming.
-   - `OnToolCall` creates visible tool rows and appends session events.
-   - `OnToolResult` creates result rows, updates plan/specialist side panels, and
-     records changed files.
-   - `OnPermissionRequest` sends a prompt to the TUI and blocks the agent loop
-     until the user answers or the run context is cancelled.
-   - `OnAskUser` does the same for model-initiated clarification questions.
-5. `agent.Run` builds provider-neutral messages and tool definitions, streams a
-   provider response, executes any requested tools through the registry/sandbox,
-   appends tool results back into the model conversation, and repeats until it has
-   a final answer or a stop condition.
-6. When `agent.Run` returns, the command emits `agentResponseMsg`. The Bubble Tea
-   loop marks the run complete, flushes queued rows/session events, updates usage
-   and file state, and re-enables the composer.
-
-The important architectural point: **the TUI is stateful and reactive, but the
-agent loop is the source of runtime truth for model/tool progress**. Presentation
-state is derived from callback events and persisted session events; workspace
-changes happen only through tools executed by the agent runtime.
-
-### Feature flows use the same bridge
-
-For one interactive turn, the supporting systems do not run beside the TUI/agent
-loop; they run inside or around it:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Submit[TUI submit] --> Options[Build agent.Options]
-    Options --> Context[Assemble context<br/>config, guidelines, history, skills]
-    Context --> ProviderCall[Provider stream]
-    ProviderCall --> StreamEvents[Text/reasoning/tool-call events]
-    StreamEvents --> Render[TUI render callbacks]
-
-    ProviderCall --> ToolCall{Tool call?}
-    ToolCall -- No --> Final[Final response]
-    ToolCall -- Yes --> ToolGate[Tool gate<br/>filters, permissions, sandbox]
-    ToolGate --> HooksBefore[beforeTool hooks]
-    HooksBefore --> Execute[Tool / MCP / specialist / plugin]
-    Execute --> HooksAfter[afterTool hooks]
-    HooksAfter --> ToolResult[Tool result message]
-    ToolResult --> Persist[Session events]
-    ToolResult --> Context
-
-    Final --> Persist
-    Persist --> Resume[Resume / fork / rewind / parent metadata]
-```
-
-Most interactive features are variations of that same bridge rather than separate
-architectures:
-
-- **Slash commands** either mutate TUI state directly (`/model`, `/permission`,
-  `/help`) or start short `tea.Cmd` jobs that later return a message to `Update`
-  (`/doctor`, `/search`, `/compact`, session commands).
-- **Permissions** sit between a model-requested tool call and actual execution:
-  the agent blocks on `OnPermissionRequest`, the TUI surfaces a modal and sends
-  the decision back through a channel, and the session log records the
-  request/decision events.
-- **Plans, specialists/sub-agents, and ask-user prompts** all follow the same
-  runtime pattern: the model requests a capability, the agent records the
-  call/result in its conversation, and the TUI mirrors the visible state as plan
-  panels, specialist cards, or question forms. Specialist session metadata can
-  carry parent/root and sub-agent/spec fields, with richer linkage depending on
-  the specialist or swarm path.
-- **Streaming tool writes** start as provider tool-call deltas before execution;
-  the TUI shows the arguments live, then replaces/augments them with the actual
-  `ToolResult` after the tool runs.
-- **Compaction** is an agent-loop context-management step; the TUI may show that
-  it happened, but the purpose is to keep the next provider request within budget.
-- **Stream-JSON** is another surface over the same callbacks: `zero exec`
-  serializes the events as JSON protocol events instead of Bubble Tea views.
-
-So a feature-specific deep dive should usually explain: what user event starts it,
-which `tea.Msg`/callback carries it, which agent/tool event is authoritative, and
-which session events make it resumable.
-
-## Runtime Provider Layer
-
-Providers are hidden behind this interface in `internal/zeroruntime`:
-
-```go
-type Provider interface {
-    StreamCompletion(ctx context.Context, request CompletionRequest) (<-chan StreamEvent, error)
-}
-```
-
-The agent loop only knows about provider-neutral messages, tool definitions,
-stream events, reasoning blocks, images, and token usage. Provider adapters in
-`internal/providers/*` translate those neutral types to provider-specific APIs:
-
-- OpenAI and OpenAI-compatible APIs;
-- Anthropic and Anthropic-compatible APIs;
-- Gemini;
-- Codex / ChatGPT OAuth-backed runtime.
-
-`internal/providers.New` resolves the configured model through the model
-registry/catalog, normalizes API model IDs and base URLs, attaches API keys or
-OAuth resolvers, and returns the concrete adapter.
-
-## Tools and Capabilities
-
-Tools implement a common interface and are registered by name in
-`internal/tools.Registry`.
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    AgentToolCall[Tool call from model] --> Decode[Decode JSON args]
-    Decode --> Filter[Enabled/disabled + permission-mode filter]
-    Filter --> Precheck[Pre-permission rejecters]
-    Precheck --> SandboxEval[Sandbox Evaluate]
-    SandboxEval --> Prompt{Needs user approval?}
-    Prompt -- Yes --> Decision[Permission callback]
-    Prompt -- No --> Run[Registry.RunWithOptions]
-    Decision --> Run
-    Run --> Redact[Redact secrets]
-    Redact --> Budget[Token-aware semantic output budget]
-    Budget --> Ceiling[Existing hard byte ceiling]
-    Ceiling --> Message[Return one tool result to model]
-```
-
-Oversized results use deterministic, provider-neutral estimated-token budgets.
-Policies retain useful structure for files, search matches, tests, process logs,
-diffs, and worker conclusions; tools without a declared category use a UTF-8-safe
-head/tail fallback. The estimate is intentionally conservative for non-ASCII
-text and is not exact provider tokenization. Existing byte ceilings remain the
-authoritative safety limit. When the existing spill mechanism can persist the
-complete redacted text received by the budgeting layer, the result includes its
-safe spill reference. This does not imply capture of subprocess bytes already
-discarded by a tool's established internal buffer.
-
-Core tool groups include:
-
-- **Read-only tools**: file reads, directory listing, glob, grep, LSP navigation,
-  skills, `ask_user`, permission requests.
-- **Write tools**: `write_file`, `edit_file`, `apply_patch`, `update_plan`.
-- **Shell tools**: `exec_command`, `write_stdin`, legacy `bash`.
-- **Network tools**: `web_fetch` and optional web search backend. `web_fetch`
-  validates the URL before the permission prompt, refuses loopback/private/
-  special-use addresses, and dials the address it resolved. With
-  `HTTP_PROXY`/`HTTPS_PROXY` set, the proxy is dialed instead and resolves the
-  target itself, so destination enforcement ends at the proxy; see the note in
-  the README.
-- **Local-control tools**: config-gated wrappers for browser, terminal, desktop,
-  and artifact helpers backed by packages such as `internal/localcontrol` and
-  `internal/browser`.
-- **Extension tools**: MCP tools, specialists/sub-agents, swarm tools, plugins.
-
-Tool definitions include safety metadata: side-effect class, permission level,
-reason, and whether prompt-gated tools are advertised in auto-like modes. The
-agent uses this metadata plus per-turn filters and deferred-loading state to
-choose which registered tools the model can see and whether a call can run
-immediately.
-
-## Permission and Sandbox Model
-
-Zero has two related but separate checks:
-
-1. **Tool permission metadata** says whether a tool is allowed, denied, or needs
-   approval.
-2. **Sandbox policy** evaluates the actual request: path scope, network access,
-   destructive shell patterns, explicit escalation, persistent/session grants,
-   and platform isolation availability.
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Call[Tool call] --> Safety[Tool Safety metadata]
-    Call --> Scope[Workspace/additional roots scope]
-    Safety --> Engine[Sandbox Engine Evaluate]
-    Scope --> Engine
-    Engine --> Allow[Allow]
-    Engine --> Prompt[Prompt user]
-    Engine --> Deny[Deny]
-    Prompt --> Grant[Turn/session/persistent grant]
-    Grant --> Execute[Execute tool]
-    Allow --> Execute
-    Deny --> Result[Return denied tool result]
-```
-
-The sandbox engine can:
-
-- auto-allow workspace writes for safe file-edit tools;
-- block reads/writes outside the allowed scope;
-- prompt for recoverable outside-workspace access;
-- deny or prompt for network depending on policy;
-- detect destructive shell commands;
-- run shell commands through a platform backend when available;
-- remember session or persistent grants;
-- support narrow command-prefix approvals.
-
-The user-facing TUI and `zero exec` mode both route permission requests through
-callbacks, but the TUI can show interactive modals while headless mode generally
-returns non-interactive fallback behavior unless a protocol/client handles it.
-
-## Session Storage and History
-
-Sessions live locally under Zero's data directory. A session directory contains:
-
-- `metadata.json` — session ID, title, cwd, provider/model, parent/root IDs,
-  spec/sub-agent fields, timestamps, and event count.
-- `events.jsonl` — append-only event log with messages, tool calls/results,
-  permissions, usage, checkpoints, forks, compaction, and specs. TUI and exec use
-  the richer event stream; ACP currently records conversational message history
-  while streaming tool and permission updates to the client.
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart LR
-    TUI[TUI callbacks] --> Store[internal/sessions.Store]
-    Exec[exec recorder] --> Store
-    Store --> Metadata[metadata.json]
-    Store --> Events[events.jsonl]
-    Events --> Resume[resume]
-    Events --> Fork[fork]
-    Events --> Rewind[rewind/checkpoints]
-    Events --> Children[parent/root metadata]
-```
-
-This is why sessions can be resumed, forked, rewound, and inspected without a
-remote service. Zero stores the local event history; providers only receive the
-messages needed for the current completion request.
-
-## Stream-JSON Protocol
-
-`zero exec --output-format stream-json` emits newline-delimited JSON events for
-integrations and CI. The protocol is implemented in `internal/streamjson` and is
-specified in [STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md](STREAM_JSON_PROTOCOL.md).
-
-Common output event types include:
-
-- `run_start`, `text`, `reasoning`, `tool_call`, `tool_result`;
-- `permission`, `permission_request`, `permission_decision`;
-- `checkpoint`, `restore`, `usage`, `final`, `warning`, `error`, `run_end`.
-
-Input stream-JSON can provide `prompt` or `message` events and image payloads.
-The CLI parses those events, resolves a single prompt, validates/decodes images,
-and passes the result into the same agent loop used everywhere else.
-
-## Extensibility Flow
-
-Zero's extension surfaces are loaded before the agent loop starts:
-
-```mermaid
-flowchart TD
-    Config[Config resolution] --> Registry[Tool registry]
-    Registry --> Core[Core tools]
-    Registry --> MCP[MCP server tools]
-    Registry --> Specialist[Specialist / Task tools]
-    Registry --> Plugin[Plugin tools]
-
-    Config --> Prompt[System prompt context]
-    Prompt --> Guidelines[AGENTS.md / ZERO.md]
-    Prompt --> Skills[Skills list]
-    Prompt --> SpecialistContext[Specialist descriptions]
-
-    ToolLifecycle[Tool lifecycle] --> Hooks[beforeTool / afterTool hooks]
-```
-
-- **Project/user guidelines** become prompt context.
-- **Skills** are instruction packs the model can load on demand.
-- **Specialists** are sub-agents callable through the `Task` tool.
-- **MCP servers** contribute external tools.
-- **Plugins** can add tools, hooks, and skill roots. Bootstrap always registers a
-  multi-root skill tool: primary Zero skills dir, optional `~/.agents/skills`,
-  then plugin skill roots (earlier wins). `internal/skills` owns that merge via
-  `LoadFromRoots`; single-root `Load` remains for install/write.
-- **Hooks** can observe or block tool lifecycle events.
-
-## End-to-End Data Flow
-
-A typical interactive edit request looks like this:
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram
-    participant U as User
-    participant T as TUI
-    participant A as Agent loop
-    participant P as Provider
-    participant R as Tool registry
-    participant S as Sandbox
-    participant FS as Workspace/session files
-
-    U->>T: Type prompt and press Enter
-    T->>A: agent.Run(prompt, provider, options)
-    A->>P: CompletionRequest(messages, tool definitions)
-    P-->>A: Stream text + tool call edit_file
-    A->>S: Evaluate edit_file args
-    S-->>A: allow/prompt/deny decision
-    A->>T: permission callback if prompt needed
-    T-->>A: user decision
-    A->>R: Run edit_file
-    R->>FS: Write workspace file
-    R-->>A: Tool result + changed files
-    A->>P: Next CompletionRequest with tool result
-    P-->>A: Final answer
-    A-->>T: Result + callbacks
-    T->>FS: Append session events
-    T-->>U: Render final transcript
-```
-
-The same request in `zero exec` follows the same provider/tool/sandbox path, but
-streaming events are written to stdout/stderr instead of rendered in Bubble Tea.
-
-## Mental Model
-
-When you work on Zero, start by locating the change on the four-layer spine from
-[Architecture Spine](#architecture-spine) — Surface, Agent loop, Capabilities,
-Persistence — then jump to the package that owns that boundary:
-
-- UI behavior? Start in `internal/tui`.
-- Command-line behavior? Start in `internal/cli`.
-- Model/tool-turn behavior? Start in `internal/agent`.
-- A new capability? Register a tool in `internal/tools` or an extension surface.
-- Safety policy? Start in `internal/sandbox` and agent permission wiring.
-- Resume/history behavior? Start in `internal/sessions` and session recorders.

-> **Why `GOOS=android`?** Go 1.26+ detects `runtime.GOOS == "android"` and skips
-> the `faccessat2` syscall inside `os/exec.findExecutable`, falling back to
-> permission-bit checks. Without this flag, Android's seccomp sends SIGSYS and
-> kills the process whenever Zero looks up a binary on `PATH` (git, sh, etc.).
-
-**DNS.** Android does not expose `/etc/resolv.conf`. Go's pure-Go DNS resolver
-needs one. Use `proot` to bind-mount Termux's resolver config:

-
-## Goals
-
-A `npm install -g @gitlawb/zero` must be **silent and self-contained**:
-
-- No `EBADENGINE` warnings — ours or from any package in the dependency tree.
-- No install scripts anywhere in the tree, so npm's `allow-scripts` gating,
-  Bun's blocked-by-default lifecycle scripts, and pnpm's strict mode all
-  install zero without prompts, trust ceremonies, or broken binaries.
-- No network fetches outside the npm registry at install time. GitHub being
-  down or rate-limited must not break `npm install`.
-- Browser control (`agent-browser`) and terminal control (`tuistory`) work out
-  of the box.
-
-## Architecture
-
-The model is the one used by Codex, esbuild, and Biome: a tiny wrapper package
-plus per-platform payloads carrying the native binaries.
-
-```
-@gitlawb/zero                    <- wrapper: bin/zero.js + optionalDependencies
-├─ @gitlawb/zero-darwin-arm64 -> npm:@gitlawb/zero@{version}-darwin-arm64
-├─ @gitlawb/zero-darwin-x64   -> npm:@gitlawb/zero@{version}-darwin-x64
-├─ @gitlawb/zero-linux-arm64  -> npm:@gitlawb/zero@{version}-linux-arm64
-├─ @gitlawb/zero-linux-x64    -> npm:@gitlawb/zero@{version}-linux-x64
-└─ @gitlawb/zero-win32-x64    -> npm:@gitlawb/zero@{version}-win32-x64
-```
-
-- The platform "packages" are **versions of the same `@gitlawb/zero` package**,
-  published at suffixed versions (`0.4.0-linux-x64`) and referenced through
-  `npm:` aliases in `optionalDependencies`. One package name means one npm
-  trusted-publisher configuration — no new publish credentials per platform.
-  The alias suffixes use Node's `process.platform`/`process.arch` names so
-  `bin/zero.js` can derive its platform package directly.
-- Each platform version sets `os` and `cpu`, so npm installs exactly one of
-  them and skips the rest.
-- A platform payload is assembled from the platform's release archive by
-  `scripts/npm/build-platform-packages.mjs` and contains the `zero` binary,
-  the platform's sandbox helpers, and the vendored `helpers/` tree (see
-  below). It has no `bin`, no scripts, and no dependencies — it is inert on
-  its own; the wrapper execs the binary out of it.
-- The published wrapper has **no scripts and no dependencies** — the
-  assembly script strips both from the repo `package.json` and injects the
-  exact-version `optionalDependencies`. (The repo `package.json` keeps
-  `agent-browser`/`tuistory` in `dependencies` purely as the version pins for
-  the vendored helpers tree; they are never installed by consumers.)
-- There is **no windows-arm64 build** (matches the release matrix); Windows on
-  ARM runs the x64 build under emulation via the first-run fallback.
-
-### Binary resolution in `bin/zero.js`
-
-1. Resolve `@gitlawb/zero-<platform>-<arch>` and exec the `zero` binary from
-   it. This wins over any previously downloaded copy — the platform version is
-   pinned to the wrapper release.
-2. Fall back to a binary previously downloaded next to the wrapper.
-3. If neither exists (`--omit=optional`, package managers that skip optional
-   dependencies), run the **fallback downloader**: `scripts/postinstall.mjs`,
-   the exact logic that used to run as a postinstall hook (HTTPS-only, SHA-256
-   verified against the release's own checksum file, no zip-slip), invoked by
-   the wrapper itself. Failures are deliberately not cached — the fetch
-   retries on every run until a binary is in place, so a transient network
-   error self-heals. Platforms with no release asset (anything outside the
-   matrix above, including windows-arm64) skip the attempt entirely rather
-   than probing the network each run.
-4. If the download is impossible too, print build-from-source guidance.
-
-There is deliberately **no `scripts.postinstall`** in any published
-`package.json`. The downloader exists only as a first-run fallback.
-
-### Vendored helpers (`helpers/`)
-
-`agent-browser` (Apache-2.0, vercel-labs/agent-browser) and `tuistory` are
-**vendored binaries/packages inside the platform payload**, not npm
-dependencies of the wrapper:
-
-- As a dependency, agent-browser's `engines: { node: ">=24", pnpm: ">=11" }`
-  and postinstall script produce `EBADENGINE` and `allow-scripts` warnings for
-  every installer. As a vendored tree it produces none, because npm never
-  resolves it.
-- `zero-release package` already stages the helpers tree into every release
-  archive (`stageLocalControlHelpers` runs `npm ci` from the repo's
-  `package.json` pins + lockfile on the native builder). The assembly script
-  reuses that staged tree, so npm installs and `install.sh` installs get
-  identical helpers.
-- The Go binary resolves helpers from `<binary dir>/helpers/node_modules/.bin`
-  on its own (`internal/localcontrol/browser.go`, `adjacentHelper`) — no
-  wrapper involvement, no configuration.
-- **Symlink materialization:** `npm pack` silently drops symlinks, and npm's
-  own `.bin` shims are symlinks on POSIX. The assembly script rewrites every
-  `.bin` symlink into a relocatable `#!/bin/sh` exec shim and dereferences any
-  other symlink, so the vendored tree survives publishing. (Verified
-  empirically; nested `node_modules` under `helpers/` IS packed — only the
-  package-root `node_modules` is always ignored.)
-- **Binary pruning:** agent-browser ships one ~11 MB native binary per
-  platform (7 total). The assembly script keeps only the payload's own
-  platform binary (plus the musl variant on linux, which its launcher detects
-  at runtime) — about 65 MB saved per platform package.
-
-## Publishing rules (release pipeline)
-
-These are the invariants `release-artifacts.yml` must hold. Breaking the first
-one is user-visible immediately.
-
-1. **Platform versions must never become `latest`.** `0.4.0-linux-x64` is a
-   semver *prerelease* of `0.4.0`; publishing it without an explicit
-   non-`latest` dist-tag would clobber `latest` and users would install a
-   platform payload as the CLI. The workflow publishes platform versions with
-   `--tag platform` and asserts `latest` survived before the wrapper publish,
-   then asserts `latest` equals the wrapper version after it. Both lookups
-   tolerate a failed `npm view` (registry lag, or no `latest` tag yet on a
-   bootstrap publish) — a missing value must not abort the job between the
-   platform and wrapper publishes, which would strand a half-published
-   release.
-2. **Platform versions publish before the wrapper.** The wrapper's
-   `optionalDependencies` pin exact suffixed versions; publishing the wrapper
-   first would create a window where installs resolve aliases that 404.
-3. **Exact-version pinning.** The wrapper at `X.Y.Z` references platform
-   versions `X.Y.Z-<platform>-<arch>` exactly — never ranges — so a wrapper
-   and its binaries can never skew.
-4. All publishes go through the existing npm OIDC trusted-publishing flow and
-   the `npm-publish` environment gate; no tokens. Because the platform
-   payloads are versions of the same package, they reuse the single
-   trusted-publisher configuration.
-
-`zero update` keeps working unchanged: it detects an npm install by finding a
-`package.json` named `@gitlawb/zero` next to the running binary — true inside
-a platform payload too — and updates via `npm install -g @gitlawb/zero@latest`.
-
-## Runbook: bumping the vendored helpers
-
-The vendored helper versions are pinned by the repo `package.json`
-`dependencies` + `package-lock.json`; the release build vendors exactly what
-the lockfile resolves. No `^range` surprises ship: a release carries what its
-lockfile pinned at build time.
-
-- Routine bump: `npm install agent-browser@<version>` (or `tuistory@…`) in the
-  repo to update pin + lockfile, verify the browser/terminal tools end-to-end,
-  ship with the next release.
-- Security response: if a vendored helper publishes a security fix, the bump
-  is release-worthy on its own — cut a patch release of zero carrying only the
-  pin change.
-- Attribution: agent-browser is Apache-2.0; its LICENSE ships inside the
-  vendored package directory (`helpers/node_modules/agent-browser/`), which
-  satisfies redistribution attribution.
-
-## History / rationale
-
-Until v0.3.x the npm package was a wrapper with a `postinstall` downloader and
-`agent-browser`/`tuistory` as regular dependencies. That produced three
-warnings on every install (`EBADENGINE` from agent-browser's `node >=24`
-engines pin, and `allow-scripts` warnings for both postinstall scripts), broke
-silently under Bun's default script blocking, and coupled `npm install` to
-GitHub Releases availability. The platform-package model removes the warnings
-structurally — there is nothing left in the tree for a package manager to warn
-about — rather than asking users to approve or suppress them.

-## Windows recovery state (standalone installs)
-
-This section describes Windows only. On Linux and macOS a standalone update
-renames the staged file directly over the executable path through the
-installation directory's file descriptor, so the replacement is atomic and no
-aside copy, marker, or recovery record is ever created — a failed update leaves
-the previous binary in place and nothing to resolve.
-
-On Windows, a running executable cannot be replaced in place, so the previous
-binary is moved aside to `<binary>.zero-update-<random>.old` first. The updater
-records that exact file — bound to its filesystem identity, in per-user state
-outside the installation directory — and deletes only that recorded copy after
-the next update is verified in place. Backups it did not create are never
-removed, so a file such as `zero.exe.before-manual-patch.old` is left alone. A
-recorded copy that something else holds open (an on-access scanner, an editor)
-stays recorded and is removed by a later update instead.
-
-An update **refuses to run** while unresolved recovery state exists beside the
-binary:
-
-| State on disk | Meaning |
-|---|---|
-| `<binary>.old` (or `<binary>.<suffix>.old`) plus a `.keep` marker, or a per-user update-recovery record naming that copy | A previous update could not restore the original binary. The `.old` file may be the last binary the updater verified; the installed one may be unverified. The `.keep` marker is in the installation directory and can be deleted; the identity-bound record is not, so deleting the marker alone does not end the refusal. |
-| `<binary>.…old.<suffix>.recovery` | A previous update could not even write the marker, so it moved the last verified binary to that name. |
-| The binary is missing and one or more `*.old` files exist | The previous attempt was interrupted between moves. |
-
-The refusal names the paths involved and the two moves that end the state:
-either move the recovery binary back over the executable path, or — if the
-installed binary is the one you want — delete the recovery copy itself (not
-only the `.keep` marker) after verifying the installed binary, then update
-again. Deleting the marker alone is not enough: a failed restore also records
-that copy in per-user state outside the installation directory, and the next
-update consults that record even if the marker is gone.
-
-That trusted record lives under `%AppData%\zero\update-recovery` (per-user).
-The recovery copy and its `.keep` marker sit in the installation directory
-(per-machine). A second Windows account on the same machine does not see the
-first account's unresolved record; the sibling marker is the machine-visible
-signal for every account. There is no separate machine-wide store: writing one
-would need a shared writable location and ACL rules the updater does not own.
-
-This is deliberately fail-closed and differs from older releases, which deleted
-`<binary>.old` and proceeded. The trade-off is that anyone who can write in the
-installation directory can plant `<binary>.old` and `<binary>.old.keep` there
-and make every subsequent update refuse until an operator clears them. That is
-the safe direction: the alternative is an update that overwrites the only
-verified copy of the previous binary. If updates start refusing, inspect those
-files before removing them — an installation directory that a lower-privileged
-account can write to is itself worth fixing.
